[12:01] <dave__> MajorPayne, but what's a keyboard combination for it?
[12:01] <MajorPayne> dave__: I think you can set up a shortcut for xkill.  But for now just open a terminal, type xkill and click on the window.
[12:01] <HyperCity> anyone?
[12:01] <MajorPayne> dave__: I don't think there is one.
[12:01] <ada1> gregg: Well, that's what I have.  If I'm updating my kernel, does it matter which distro I'm using?  I ask kindly: Why NOT 6.06?
[12:02] <Jun_> Thank you Major
[12:02] <dave__> MajorPayne, is there like a crtl+alt+del in ubuntu?
[12:02] <gregg> ada1: well, that's a personal thing :) - I like to live on the (sorta) bleeding edge and 6.06 is quite old :)
[12:02] <attickid> ey is there a folder where are the packages are stored?
[12:02] <MajorPayne> dave__: Worst case you can restart the X server with Ctrl+Alt+backspace but don't do that unless you really have to.
[12:03] <MajorPayne> dave__: Not that I know of.  No need, just try xkill.  That will do basicly everything.
[12:03] <MajorPayne> dave__: You have to remember that Ubuntu is not Windows.
[12:03] <variant> there is a bug that affects me on launchpad, it has said "fix committed" and "fix released" for ages, what does that mean exactly? there is no patch attached to the bug?
[12:03] <dave__> MajorPayne, cos my cursor gets all slow, it wont let me do anything. I've been in this situation for a couple times now, and I have had to reboot
[12:03] <gregg> ada1: to answer your question, 6.06 doesn't have the nice helper utilities for building your own kernel later releases have
[12:03] <Jun_> Any idea how I manually connect to a network?
[12:03] <Jun_> Limnewire has always done it automatically.
[12:03] <maple> anyone know the maximum number of usb devices that can be connected at any given time?
[12:04] <Agrajag> maple: I think it's 127
[12:04] <daan> maple: 127
[12:04] <variant> dave__: yes, you can type ctrl alt delete but ubuntu has it to open the logout dialog by default, not send sysreq's
[12:04] <dirtyhand> How can I make the font in Firefox in Ubuntu 7.04 look better (like in windows) ?
[12:04] <dave__> MajorPayne, I know it's not Window$ but I used PCLinuxOS before and pressing crtl+alt+esc did it for me
[12:04] <daan> Agrajag: is it bad that we know? :)
[12:04] <variant> dirtyhand: install some fonts
[12:04] <Agrajag> daan: nah
[12:04] <variant> !fonts | dirtyhand
[12:04] <ubotu> dirtyhand: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[12:04] <Agrajag> just makes us nerds
[12:04] <MajorPayne> dave__: Ahh.  I never used that distro before.  Every one is a bit different.
[12:04] <gregg> dirtyhand: there's a repository which has packages which enable nicer rendering
[12:04] <maple> daan: Agrajag: is that for ubuntu's stock kernel or whats possible after custom build
[12:04] <daan> Agrajag: ok check
[12:04] <bigboyfunsexx> sal lume
[12:05] <dirtyhand> gregg: where can i find this rep?
[12:05] <daan> maple: stock i think
[12:05] <gregg> dirtyhand: deb http://www.telemail.fi/mlind/ubuntu feisty fonts
[12:05] <ada1> gregg: True, true.  Well, I might go to edgy or feisty. ----  Ooh, okay, good point.  What version would I need for the helper utils?  And version aside, was it correct to assume that i need to install Ubuntu as normal before recompiling and updating the kernel?
[12:05] <jrib> variant: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/CommonTasks
[12:05] <Yorii> Hey, how do I get the user list in X-chat?
[12:05] <gregg> ada1: edgy or better -- just take a look at the wiki link I gave you earlier
[12:05] <dave__> MajorPayne, I know that, but I was hoping one would know... Is there a shortcut for the terminal then?
[12:05] <gregg> ada1: the whole prcoedure is described in detail tehre
[12:06] <jrib> variant: note that "fix released" probably just means the fix is in gutsy
[12:06] <gregg> dave__: alt-f2 :)
[12:06] <gregg> dave__: no terminal, but a prompt
[12:06] <Jowi> dave__, I just joined so I missed your original question. what do you want to do with ctrl-alt-del?
[12:06] <dirtyhand> gregg: what do I do with that link :(
[12:06] <ada1> gregg: Okay, I'll do that.  Thanks for your help!
[12:06] <MajorPayne> dave__: Applications, Accessories, Terminal.
[12:06] <variant> jrib: thats really annoying, it's a bug that causes regular network outage requireing a reboot, does that mean it won't be backported?
[12:06] <dave__> MajorPayne, thanks man, another Q. I just got my cd for 7.04, how do I upgrade?
[12:06] <gregg> dirtyhand: you can add it as a repo in synaptic (the whole line!)
[12:07] <dirtyhand> oh
[12:07] <variant> dave__: insert the cd
[12:07] <gregg> dirtyhand: add 3rd party repository
[12:07] <variant> dave__: it will pop up an upgrade request
[12:07] <jrib> variant: you can request a backport
[12:07] <variant> jrib: how do you do that? in launchpad?
[12:07] <dave__> Jowi, I wanted to know if there was a shortcut like crtl+alt+del for ubuntu
[12:07] <jrib> !backports > variant (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:07] <gregg> dirtyhand: after that reload and update. it should update a few packages, Xft, fontconfig etc
[12:07] <dave__> variant, thanks..
[12:07] <spiffy> hello, im running off the live cd and im wondering how to mount an ext3 drive read-write
[12:07] <jrib> variant: or just patch the package locally yourself
[12:07] <Kissaki> guys, does anyone know how to run the Wine?
[12:07] <variant> jrib: i would if I knew where to find the patch!
[12:07] <dirtyhand> so open up Synpactic Package Manager?
[12:08] <gregg> dirtyhand: yes
[12:08] <daan> Kissaki: type wine in a terminal and hit enter
[12:08] <dave__> THANK YOU GUYS ALL
[12:08] <X3rus> Ubuntu doesn't connec to the network. And INPUT, OUTPUT adn FORWARD have -P ACCEPT, it was working fine but now it doesn't any ideas of how can I solve it
[12:08] <variant> daan: usually with a windows executable as an argument..
[12:08] <jrib> variant: well take a look at the gutsy package
[12:08] <daan> variant: he asked how to run wine :P
[12:08] <variant> X3rus: disable iptables momentarily and see if it works then
[12:09] <X3rus> ok
[12:09] <variant> jrib: is there a cvs server or something?
[12:09] <maxskuk> hi body
[12:09] <jrib> variant: packages.ubuntu.com
[12:09] <Kissaki> daan: I looked up the website of the WINE, it said run the winecfg, but when I try, I get the error "Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly." and it does not say anything about it in FAQ or HOWTO
[12:09] <maxskuk> what are you talking about?
[12:09] <spiffy> anyone on mounting a drive read-write from the live cd
[12:09] <spiffy> its ext3
[12:09] <daan> Kissaki: do you have gnome or something running?
[12:09] <variant> jrib: it's a kernel driver, so would i be looking for the kernel source there?
[12:10] <maxskuk> oh technical stuff
[12:10] <Bartzy> Hi, Can anyone please help me to install a fresh install of grub ? I want ubuntu to make a brand new menu.lst and a brand new grub that will runover the current grub.
[12:10] <Kissaki> daan : gnome
[12:10] <variant> jrib: ahh, nm. had a few beers so not thinking straight :)
[12:10] <Kissaki> daan: feisty
[12:10] <maxskuk> nobody sau
[12:10] <variant> jrib: thnx
[12:10] <daan> Kissaki: that's strange then
[12:10] <jrib> !grub > Bartzy (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:10] <maxskuk> ...nobody says hello to anybody here
[12:10] <Kissaki> daan: yeah, its the deafult installation
[12:10] <Yorii> What's the keyboard shortcut for changing workspaces?
[12:11] <PriceChild> maxskuk, would you like 1106 people to all reply and flood the place sayign HI?
[12:11] <jrib> maxskuk: #ubuntu-offtopic is more sociable, this channel is just for support
[12:11] <maxskuk> thanks
[12:11] <jrib> Yorii: ctrl-alt-<arrow>
[12:11] <Yorii> thanks
[12:12] <dirtyhand> gregg: i cant find the add 3rd party rep in synaptic
[12:12] <Kissaki> daan: actually wine is not a must, I just want to run my MS office on the ubuntu machine, do you have any suggestions?
[12:12] <dirtyhand> option
[12:12] <X3rus> variant: how can I stop it. there is no /etc/init.d/iptables
[12:12] <HyperCity> how can i see the status of port 8080 on my pc?
[12:12] <gregg> dirtyhand: uh, lemme see...
[12:12] <Kissaki> some guy just adviced me to try wine so i went for it
[12:12] <spiffy> anyone on mounting read-write ext3 drive?
[12:12] <Jowi> dave__, ctrl-alt-del is used to restart the computer. /etc/event.d/ contain many power funcions as well as in /etc/acpi depending on your system configuration...
[12:12] <daan> Kissaki: you can create a virtual machine
[12:12] <tc75> i'm getting really low on my / partition (only  3.2GB, my home being separate)... what are my options? repartition with all my data on the drive? somehow tell apt to put some packages elsewhere (ex. texlive)? etc...
[12:12] <MajorPayne> Kissaki: Do you really need to run MS office or can Open Office meet your needs?
[12:12] <gregg> dirtyhand: settings -> repositories -> third party software -> add...
[12:12] <dirtyhand> gotcha thanks
[12:13] <littlegator> Can anyone recommend a CD burning app that can burn .iso files effectively?
[12:13] <jrib> spiffy: unless you do something special to make it read only, it will be mounted read-write.  Just setup your permissions on it
[12:13] <banlieue> littlegator: k3b
[12:13] <jrib> !permission > spiffy (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:13] <jrib> littlegator: right click -> write to cd
[12:13] <Deep6> does anyone know if you can decrease the size of the reserved blocks using tune2fs on a mounted fs?
[12:13] <dirtyhand> gregg: so add this whole thing? or just the url: deb http://www.telemail.fi/mlind/ubuntu feisty font
[12:13] <banlieue> it's a kde application, but it's well-appreciated by the linux community
[12:13] <Yorii> This "Desktop Effects" it's similar to something else I've seen, but doesn't seem to have as many functions, what's the name of the other similar thing?
[12:13] <littlegator> jrib: are you serious? >_______>
[12:13] <daan> Yorii: beryl
[12:13] <gregg> dirtyhand: with an s at the end, but yeah, that's it
[12:13] <Yorii> thanks again :)
[12:13] <banlieue> Yorii: beryl and compiz
[12:13] <jrib> littlegator: it burns .iso's effectively...
[12:13] <littlegator> jrib: wow I feel stupid now >_>
[12:13] <dirtyhand> kk
[12:14] <Bartzy> jrib, should I run grub-update every time I update menu.lst ?!
[12:14] <banlieue> Yorii: now called compiz fusion
[12:14] <Kissaki> well, I tried to use the OpenOffice but I cant exactly find the replacements for the analysis tools of excel, and since most of the guys in office use the excel or the word, so the import quality is low. I know that openOffice does not have to exactly convert the files, but it still effects the work and look quality
[12:14] <Commander-Ape> when i try to run a script in my home directory, he keeps asking me if i want to view the file or run it. is there a way to just run the file, stopping that dialog from appearing?
[12:14] <banlieue> Commander-Ape: right click, properties, disable 'execute'
[12:14] <dirtyhand> gregg: http://www.telemail.fi/mlind/ubuntu/dists/feisty/fonts/binary-amd64/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found get this
[12:14] <daan> Kissaki: Then I suggest you create a virtual machine with Windows 2000 or XP
[12:14] <jrib> Bartzy: yeah, update-grub I guess
[12:14] <firelord901> Ok so guys, I followed the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto and it still won't work. It worked for a second when I rebooted it made the sound but now it doens't.
[12:14] <blithen> in terminal sudo /home/YOUR NAME/program.
[12:14] <ic56> Deep6: I think changing the reserved blocks on a mounted filesystem with tune2fs will work.  I've never tried it though.
[12:14] <daan> Kissaki: VMWare or VirtualBox
[12:14] <banlieue> in permission that is (@ Commander-Ape)
[12:14] <Kissaki> daan: wouldnt it be costly to the system?
[12:15] <daan> Kissaki: yes
[12:15] <Commander-Ape> perfect, banlieue
[12:15] <Deep6> ic56: hrm....
[12:15] <Commander-Ape> thanks
[12:15] <daan> Kissaki: But I don't know your hardware
[12:15] <daan> Kissaki: Memory is the most important
[12:15] <Bartzy> jrib, but I'm on live cd, and I can't update grub from there...
[12:15] <banlieue> Commander-Ape: you can also disable it altogether, but that's a minor security risk
[12:15] <Kissaki> I am pretty new to this linux world, but after the demand of the Vista, i directly decided that I would go with linux
[12:15] <Deep6> ic56: got any idea on where to look to get a conclusive answer?
[12:15] <Deep6> Kissaki: welcome to the revolution
[12:15] <daan> Kissaki: that's a good step to take
[12:15] <Kissaki> daan: 1.86 ghz, 512 ram
[12:15] <Kissaki> thanks guys
[12:15] <jrib> Bartzy: I don't really know much about grub.  If the wiki isn't specific enough, just ask the channel
[12:16] <banlieue> pft, i hear vista's good
[12:16] <banlieue> :] 
[12:16] <Bartzy> okay
[12:16] <Commander-Ape> banlieue: nah, thats finde
[12:16] <Commander-Ape> *fine
[12:16] <daan> Kissaki: it is possible I guess I have the same amount of ram
[12:16] <gregg> dirtyhand: oh.. you're on amd64?
[12:16] <firelord901> I followed the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto and it still doesn't work.
[12:16] <Kissaki> I cant spare some 15gb hdd and go buy extra ram just for the stuff I saw exaclty as the beryl (or compiz i dont know the difference)
[12:16] <ic56> Deep6: you'll have to try it.  Traditional methodology is to always unmount a filesystem before messing with its internals.  However, changing the reserved blocks only makes a change in the superblock -- there's no other datastructures affected.  So you should be ok.
[12:16] <dirtyhand> yes ser
[12:16] <Bartzy> How do I update-grub my ubuntu installation, when I can't boot it and I'm working from the live cd ?
[12:16] <dirtyhand> gregg: yep
[12:16] <daan> Kissaki: I can imagine
[12:16] <banlieue> beryl is quite overrated, really
[12:16] <Yorii> what's the easiest way to get macromedia flash to firefox? their webpage is stupid :(
[12:17] <Deep6> ic56:  it's only a live fs supporting 400 users :D lets roll the dice!
[12:17] <Deep6> j/k
[12:17] <jrib> !flash > Yorii (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:17] <ic56> Deep6: (meaning, you won't find an authoritative answer because this isn't the recommended method)
[12:17] <karg> hi. does anyone know where i could find the source of login?
[12:17] <daan> banlieue: are you some kind of vista fan?
[12:17] <banlieue> it does look excellent, in all fairness, but the advantages do not by far weigh up against the disadvantages of running it
[12:17] <karg> what i want to to is to compile it with pam compatibilty
[12:17] <aldaek> i have a nforce based mb and have a dvd for edgy eft install. when i install, my internet doesnt work and i found out i need to compile something in the kernel. to do that, i will need to download linux headers... whats the recommended course of action? computer in question is currently running xp with ample non-partitioned space for linux
[12:17] <gregg> dirtyhand: you need to use another repository then: http://ubuntu.moshen.de/dists/feisty/experimental/
[12:17] <Kissaki> I am pretty happy with the ubuntu btw. in OS class they forced us to try mandrake and I hated it
[12:17] <banlieue> daan: lol, am I labeled for life now?
[12:17] <Alanamda> Hi, i have a Intel PRO/Wireless 802.11 B (ipw2100) card and a new install of Ubuntu 7.04.  The drivers and firmware for my card came preinstalled with ubuntu, but when i run "dmesg | grep ipw", I get "eth1: Error initializing Symbol"
[12:17] <ic56> Deep6: if you support 400 users, then surely you have a spare partition on one of your systems that you can use to test things.
[12:17] <Deep6> anyone here know Kerberos at all?
[12:17] <daan> banlieue: yep :P
[12:17] <banlieue> Deep6: the dog?
[12:17] <SeveredCross> Bartzy: Sounds like you need a chroot.
[12:17] <Alanamda> Does anyone have any advice on how to get this card working? I've been trying on and off for a couple months now and have had no success
[12:17] <Kissaki> but this stuff recognized all of the hardware I got, it cool :)
[12:17] <Deep6> ic56: yeah I might try it on a non critical system
[12:18] <X3rus> variant: I -F iptables, but still have no connection
[12:18] <firelord901> Anyone know why when I follow the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto my sound still won't work?
[12:18] <daan> Kissaki: Ubuntu is pretty nice for newbies and pros alike
[12:18] <dirtyhand> gregg: which should I use?
[12:18] <banlieue> newbies to linux, that is
[12:18] <Kissaki> and guys knowing ubuntu are very helpful too, thanks already for all support!
[12:18] <Bartzy> SeveretCross, what's chroot ?
[12:18] <dirtyhand> gregg: i just want it to look exactly like it does on windows
[12:18] <ic56> Deep6: if it helps any, I've changed filesystem names and fsck timeouts on mounted filesystems w/out problem.
[12:18] <Bartzy> SeveredCross, what's chroot ?
[12:19] <Deep6> banlieue: no the MIT based authentication protocol
[12:19] <daan> Kissaki: you're welcome and I suggest VirtualBox, had some problems setting up VMWare the last time
[12:19] <banlieue> dirtyhand: you should consider Freespire then
[12:19] <gregg> dirtyhand: exactly? no, won't work. but you can adjust the anti-aliasing via these packages so that it looks much more like windows
[12:19] <Kissaki> can anyone tell me whether there are great differences between the ubuntu and debian/linux?
[12:19] <SeveredCross> It's when you change the root filesystem of your current kernel in a way.
[12:19] <gregg> dirtyhand: add the "deb" line given on the website
[12:19] <dirtyhand> ok
[12:19] <banlieue> Deep6: not enough to help you in any way, i'm sure
[12:19] <Kissaki> daan: does it install the whole windows system, or just necessary files to run windows applications?
[12:19] <SeveredCross> So if your currently rooted in /dev/sda4, you can chroot to /dev/sda2 or something.
[12:20] <Bartzy> SeveredCross, how do I do that ? it's a command ?
[12:20] <spiffy> so a umask=000 makes the drive read write for all users correct?
[12:20] <Alanamda> ive tried doing "sudo echo > 100 /sys/class/firmware/timeout", but I get "permission denied" errors and have no idea how to change it...
[12:20] <ic56> Kissaki: ubuntu is basically a more frequently updated Debian system.  They are very similar.
[12:20] <Deep6> ic56: you don't happen to be a kerberos whiz are you?
[12:20] <daan> Kissaki: you need to install the whole system yourself in a virtual machine
[12:20] <dirtyhand> gregg: so add this to synaptic - deb http://ubuntu.moshen.de/dists/feisty/experimental/
[12:20] <X3rus> Ubuntu doesn't connec to the network. And INPUT, OUTPUT adn FORWARD have -P ACCEPT, it was working fine but now it doesn't any ideas of how can I solve it. I also -F iptables but still nothing
[12:20] <SeveredCross> Bartzy: If you're on the LiveCD, try this from a commandline: chroot /dev/sdaX /bin/bash
[12:20] <mooseman447> is it possible to disable the switch users option when you use the gnome lock screen?
[12:20] <ic56> Deep6: I've used Kerberos but only as a user -- never managed it.
[12:20] <Kissaki> ic56: so can i do the server stuff also with the ubuntu server, all operations done with the debian?
[12:20] <Yorii> how do I enable the Multiverse repository?
[12:20] <dirtyhand> sorry about all the questions, new to ubuntu, just installed today
[12:20] <Kissaki> daan: damn ms, again windows eh?
[12:20] <daan> Kissaki: you're going to run windows while running ubuntu at the same time
[12:20] <daan> Kissaki: yep
[12:20] <SeveredCross> Bartzy: Replace /dev/sdaX with the partition you want to boot.
[12:20] <gregg> dirtyhand: yep
[12:20] <dirtyhand> kk
[12:21] <Bartzy> SeveredCross, what's /bin/bash does ?
[12:21] <banlieue> mooseman447: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/114945
[12:21] <SeveredCross> /bin/bash is the shell you want to start.
[12:21] <Kissaki> daan: ah i see, i run the mandrake in linux, in same way, it was wmvare i gues
[12:21] <banlieue> mooseman447: bug+solution
[12:21] <daan> Kissaki: you can try to take a look at crossover office but that is not free i believe
[12:21] <Bartzy> oh okay tnx
[12:21] <Alanamda> Does anyone here have experience with the ipw2100 drivers?  Should i try using NDISwrapper instead?
[12:21] <daan> Kissaki: exactly
[12:21] <SeveredCross> Yw Bartzy.
[12:21] <gregg> Kissaki: ubuntu is debian without most of the stuff that sucks about debian
[12:21] <dirtyhand> gregg: does the name after the url matter?
[12:21] <Kissaki> daan: would it help me to reinstall the ubuntu?
[12:21] <ic56> Kissaki: yes you can use Ubuntu as a server.  You might want to avoid installing all the pretty GUI stuff though -- it would just suck resources out of the system.  I think there's a "server" installation option off the main install menu in Ubuntu.
[12:21] <gregg> dirtyhand: yes
[12:21] <dirtyhand> deb url [name] 
[12:21] <banlieue> debian doesn't have this irc channel, for example
[12:21] <daan> Kissaki: to try wine?
[12:21] <SeveredCross> If you have any problems, I have to run, so I can't help you, but I'm sure someone else here cacn figure you out.
[12:21] <SeveredCross> ^_^
[12:22] <Zer0CooL> who likes rapidshare links? msg me private
[12:22] <denver> how do i change my keyboard layout, it is making funny characters when i try to type a single quote
[12:22] <Kissaki> ic56: in the default ubuntu installation cd?
[12:22] <Bartzy> SeveredCross, got an error : chroot: cannot change root directory to /dev/sda3: Not a directory
[12:22] <Kissaki> daan: yeah
[12:22] <mooseman447> banlieue thanks a lot ill look into that
[12:22] <banlieue> Bartzy: mkdir it
[12:22] <dirtyhand> gregg : deb http://ubuntu.moshen.de/dists/feisty/experimental/ freetype ?
[12:22] <daan> Kissaki: it can help but i'm not sure excel will work with it
[12:22] <ic56> Kissaki: Yes, I think so.  But I'm not up to date.
[12:22] <Bartzy> banlieue mkdir what ?

[12:22] <Edgan> Bartzy: mount /dev/sda3, then chroot the mount point
[12:22] <Kissaki> gregg: umm what sucks about debian? everyone knowing linux toldme that omg its soo great, its so cool, u must try this
[12:22] <gregg> dirtyhand: "deb http://ubuntu.moshen.de feisty experimental" like it's on the page!
[12:23] <Kissaki> ic56: would guys around here know it?
[12:23] <banlieue> Kissaki: ubuntu is based on debian
[12:23] <denver> how do i change my keyboard layout to default english qwerty keyboard
[12:23] <banlieue> Kissaki: so effectively you are using debian in a way :] 
[12:23] <daan> Kissaki: or try this  sudo apt-get reinstall wine
[12:23] <dirtyhand> my bad!
[12:23] <Kissaki> daan: ill give it a shot
[12:23] <ic56> Kissaki: yes. this is the right place for that question.
[12:23] <Bartzy> Edgan, what if I just do : mount /dev/sda3 /
[12:24] <gregg> Kissaki: debian is outdated when it's released every time. that's because the stabilization process takes long and often longer than planned
[12:24] <ic56> ubotu: server > Kissaki
[12:24] <MajorPayne> denver: System, Prefs, Keyboard.
[12:24] <mzuverink> ive got a lapptop w/the intel 915gw, I want and can enable crt out, but not to the size I want, my lappy is 1280*768 and I want it to crt out to 1024*786 with a refresh rate of at least 75, current my lappy only does 60 due to lcd.  Any clues?
[12:24] <MajorPayne> denver: Then layout.
[12:24] <Edgan> Bartzy: doubt it will let you, and general it is a bad bad idea
[12:24] <DarkSk8eR> ciao
[12:24] <Bartzy> Edgan, lol, just did it :\
[12:24] <banlieue> lol
[12:24] <Edgan> Bartzy: mkdir /mnt/foo ; mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/foo ; chroot /mnt/foo
[12:24] <dirtyhand> gregg: get this when I hit reload: W: GPG error: http://ubuntu.moshen.de feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY FC0A1CC62F306651
[12:24] <Deep6> ic56 it worked live
[12:24] <gregg> dirtyhand: ignore it
[12:24] <dirtyhand> kk
[12:24] <banlieue> Bartzy: let us know how that works out for you lol
[12:24] <Kissaki> and another question, I installed the whole ubuntu in same partition (just like a newb :)). But i want to switch ubuntu so that it will stay like the main OS. But I dont know in which ratios I should partition the disk, so that when I reinstall the linux, I wont loose my data files. Do you have any suggestions?
[12:24] <aldaek> get public key
[12:24] <ic56> Deep6: good stuff!
[12:25] <Digitalhighway> how is ubuntu better then windows
[12:25] <Bartzy> what's the command to unmount ?
[12:25] <gregg> aldaek: I'm too lazy to explain that :)
[12:25] <aldaek> umout dir
[12:25] <aldaek> er.. umount dir
[12:25] <intelikey> Bartzy is there a linux system installed on /dev/sda3 ???
[12:25] <denver> MajorPayne, doesnt seem to work
[12:25] <aldaek> under sudo
[12:25] <banlieue> Digitalhighway: i'm sure there's numerous pages on google explaining the differences between linux and windows in general, and ubuntu and windows specifically
[12:25] <banlieue> it's a rather broad question to go into in this channel
[12:25] <MajorPayne> denver: What do you mean?
[12:25] <aldaek> lol gregg
[12:25] <denver> MajorPayne, i got it, i forgot to check the defaults box :P
[12:26] <denver> MajorPayne, thank you
[12:26] <[Zmax] > What is the difference between 'apt-get' and 'aptitude' ?
[12:26] <mint>  I can't upgrade my proprietary Nvidia-Driver ? (fresh install)
[12:26] <MajorPayne> denver: Ahh.  You can also remove all other layouts.
[12:26] <denver> i also did that
[12:26] <MajorPayne> denver: Ok.
[12:26] <Bartzy> Edgan, why can't I umount /dev/sda3 ? I mounted it on / :\
[12:26] <Jowi> Kissaki, I would recommend minimum 5-6GB for root (/), 1GB for swap (swap) and a separate home partition (/home).
[12:26] <banlieue> aptitude is a front-end to apt-get, [Zmax] 
[12:26] <ic56> Kissaki: if you intend to repartition, then, by definition, all data in the partitions you will change will be destroyed.  Since you have a single partition for the whole disk, that means the whole disk will be destroyed.  Backup your data to an external device.
[12:26] <intelikey> Bartzy is there a linux system installed on /dev/sda3 ???
[12:26] <daan> [Zmax] : they say aptitude handles dependencies better
[12:26] <Bartzy> intelikey - yep..
[12:26] <Edgan> Bartzy: because now everything is running from the new /
[12:26] <Edgan> Bartzy: as I said, bad bad idea
[12:26] <Bartzy> Edgan - so it's good .. it's what I want..
[12:27] <Kissaki> daan: it said "Invalid operation reinstall" do we have another command?
[12:27] <banlieue> but fun for us to see what happens
[12:27] <intelikey> Bartzy then /bin/umount /dev/sda3
[12:27] <Edgan> Bartzy: But what about the old /?
[12:27] <intelikey> Bartzy but i doubt that you can.
[12:27] <Bartzy> umount: /: device is busy
[12:27] <banlieue> i wonder how it allowed the mount to begin with
[12:27] <Bartzy> damn now I need to restart to live cd again ?
[12:27] <Digitalhighway> i'm trying to install printer drivers for my lexmark printer....lexmark web site does not have ubuntu drivers for my printer...what are my options
[12:27] <daan> Kissaki: whoops meant this: sudo aptitude reinstall wine
[12:27] <Kissaki> ic56: yeah ill do that, but after that, which folders should have which ratio of space over total space? i was wondering that
[12:27] <dirtyhand> gregg: ok, reloaded and ubuntu detected the updates, they being installed now.  What should I do after they are done ?
[12:28] <gregg> dirtyhand: restart gnome
[12:28] <bijacks> Can anyone tell me the difference between Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and Fedora?
[12:28] <Kissaki> daan: cool, it works
[12:28] <dirtyhand> control+alt+backspace right?
[12:28] <banlieue> bijacks: did you try google for that?
[12:28] <gregg> dirtyhand: oh, and make sure that subpixel rendering is correctly configured! (system -> preferences -> fonts
[12:28] <Kissaki> i think ill get used to this linux stuff hahaa
[12:28] <dirtyhand> ok
[12:28] <bijacks> No
[12:28] <banlieue> that's a rather big question to answer
[12:28] <[Al] chemist_ex> something has gone pretty wrong.  Something won't let me manage my packages because another controller is managing them. I have restarted and closed everything I know how.  Some one help please!
[12:28] <Bartzy> Edgan , so the only solution to me being stupid is restart and load live cd again ?
[12:28] <banlieue> not really suitable for this environment
[12:28] <Edgan> Bartzy: yes
[12:28] <Bartzy> okay tnx... I have another question
[12:28] <Edgan> Bartzy: next time use chroot
[12:28] <Jan_Winnicki> hello guys
[12:28] <daan> Kissaki: just don't give up and keep checking out this channel the forums and the internet you'll be fine
[12:28] <aldaek> is the nforce driver a kernel module? if so. what do i need to compile it... so i get the files trhough windows xp since while in ubuntu, the internet doesnt work
[12:28] <intelikey> Bartzy only way to umount / is reboot
[12:29] <Kissaki> but i hate the websites that are only designed for IE, do we have anything to overcome that? (not installing IE of course :))
[12:29] <Edgan> Bartzy: Then the use of sda3 is only for that terminal window, not the whole system
[12:29] <banlieue> Kissaki: donate money to mozilla foundation? :/
[12:29] <daan> Kissaki: complain to the website creators :)
[12:29] <ic56> Kissaki: the other guy's recomendations are not unreasonable.  Try using du(1) to find out what you're consuming now.  Like this:  du -s /home/kissaki
[12:29] <Kissaki> banlieue: hahaha cool idea
[12:29] <banlieue> or send lots and lots of emails
[12:29] <Bartzy> Edgan, If my grub is bad... I fucked it up... how can I reinstall it ? everything in it... menu.lst... the package itself... I didn't understand that from the docs
[12:29] <MajorPayne> Kissaki: Ask website creaters to follow standards.
[12:29] <newuser01> try with opera?
[12:29] <aldaek> lots and lots of emals = spam
[12:29] <banlieue> or just find better websites to visit ;P
[12:30] <daan> banlieue: true
[12:30] <banlieue> aldaek: that'd be a battle of definitions
[12:30] <Kissaki> newuser01: isnt Opera used less frequent then firefox?
[12:30] <littlegator> kissaki: if you disable javascript, pages that restrict access to browsers other than IE don't restrict you >_>
[12:30] <Digitalhighway> what do you do if your printer manufacturer does not have ubuntu printer driver?
[12:30] <banlieue> Kissaki: it is used a lot less frequently
[12:30] <aldaek> hey! they listen!
[12:30] <banlieue> but it's quite nice nonetheless
[12:30] <aldaek> is the nforce driver a kernel module? if so. what do i need to compile it... so i get the files trhough windows xp since while in ubuntu, the internet doesnt work
[12:30] <intelikey>                                                                                    http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37966
[12:30] <littlegator> kissaki: or you could change your browser ID to IE >_>
[12:30] <Jowi> Digitalhighway, you head out to http://linuxprinting.org
[12:30] <Kissaki> littlegator: but my stuff is generaly in that javascript :)
[12:31] <banlieue> littlegator: good luck running the site's js though ;P
[12:31] <Digitalhighway> cool, thanks
[12:31] <Edgan> Bartzy: good from live cd, mount linux partitions, chroot, start networking, use apt-get, edit config as necessary
[12:31] <Yorii> I have installed the flashplugin-nonfree package and firefox still reports as having no flash plugin, is there something I have to do to initialize it?
[12:31] <Jan_Winnicki> how can i handle lastfm uri the way i want? i downloaded the original app from last.fm and still nothing. i know there is /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/ in configuration editor, but don't know if i can add custom uris there?
[12:31] <littlegator> banlieue: he can take my second suggestion then >_>
[12:31] <Kissaki> littlegator: i am not blocked, but cant use the damn scrollbox and other gui stuff to navigate
[12:31] <newuser01> Kissaki: idk, i prefer Opera because its more user friendly imo. not sure about compatibility with web sites designed only for IE, but i havent had many problems accessing sites with Opera
[12:31] <Kissaki> its about the non-standart design stuff eg?
[12:31] <littlegator> kissaki: then kill the developer of said website
[12:31] <Kissaki> littlegator: point taken
[12:31] <banlieue> Jan_Winnicki: i'd imagine the website would be better able to help you with that
[12:31] <Bartzy> Edgan, apt-get install grub-install will delete grub config and make a new one , like in the ubuntu installlation ?
[12:31] <Jowi> Digitalhighway, if there is no exact match there for your model usually you can find a compatible one to use.
[12:32] <cactaur> Yorii: Did you restart firefox?
[12:32] <Yorii> yes
[12:32] <Edgan> Bartzy: no idea
[12:32] <banlieue> I do feel most the intarwebs have adapted to firefox now, as it's taken such a big part of the pie in such a short time
[12:32] <littlegator> cactaur: isn't it spelled "cactuar" ?
[12:32] <dirtyhand> gregg: that kinda did it
[12:32] <dirtyhand> thanks
[12:32] <cactaur> yes
[12:32] <Yorii> I tried reinstalling the package again, and restarting firefox, still not working
[12:32] <banlieue> of course they still don't follow standards, but neither does firefox
[12:32] <gregg> dirtyhand: looks better now?
[12:32] <dirtyhand> yeah
[12:32] <Bartzy> Edgan, so how do I reinstall grub ? :] 
[12:32] <intelikey> Bartzy grub-install is not a package iirc   you want grub
[12:32] <Yorii> it doesn't show in about:plugins either
[12:33] <daan> I actually never encounter sites that don't work in Firefox anymore
[12:33] <belarm> is there a way i can install the Gutsy version of xserver-xorg-video-intel in Feisty?
[12:33] <banlieue> except acid2 of course ;)
[12:33] <dirtyhand> now i need to reset all the FF settings because I was playing with them
[12:33] <intelikey> !grub > Bartzy
[12:33] <Edgan> Bartzy: no backup menu.lst?
[12:33] <dirtyhand> to make the font look better
[12:33] <banlieue> unless you run the beta3
[12:33] <Kissaki> ic56: its 472920 but i stuff most of my data files in an ntfs partition
[12:33] <daan> banlieue: offcourse but I don't consider that test relevant
[12:33] <littlegator> banlieue: a standard is something that is used by everyone. If the browser that the majority of web surfers use is IE, then anything not used by IE is not considered a standard...
[12:33] <Kissaki> ah, another question, is it allowed to +RW to ntfs partitions in ubuntu?
[12:33] <bigcats_fl> HELP WITH NET ADM STUFF??
[12:33] <daan> littlegator: wrong
[12:33] <Digitalhighway> is there a irc program like mirc in ubuntu 6.06?
[12:34] <littlegator> daan: look up the definiton of standard >_>
[12:34] <banlieue> littlegator: ive had this exact discussion a million times, and often I was the one defending your stance, but the w3c standards are meant as standards and are to be followed as such
[12:34] <Jowi> bigcats_fl, ask a specific question and I'm sure someone can help.
[12:34] <samitheberber> Digitalhighway: x-chat
[12:34] <angelbreath> a little help for evolution needed
[12:34] <banlieue> littlegator: IE cannot be considered a standard as it does not function coherently
[12:34] <aimaz> you should ignore trolls like littlegator
[12:34] <belarm> Digitalhighyway:xchat
[12:34] <angelbreath> anyone can help?
[12:34] <banlieue> it has random behaviour, rather
[12:34] <intelikey> littlegator that's not how webstandards work.
[12:34] <daan> banlieue: my point
[12:34] <Bartzy> Edgan - nope... I want it to make me a new menu.lst :\
[12:34] <littlegator> wow I'm staying out of this =.=
[12:34] <daan> Kissaki: you need ntfs-3g
[12:34] <banlieue> lol
[12:34] <Kissaki> daan: is it a program?
[12:34] <banlieue> sensitive issues being brought up now
[12:34] <Jan_Winnicki> banlieue: which website do you mean? ;]  ubuntuforums or lastfm? cause my main question is about adding my own uri in configuration editor, so it could be anything, not only lastfm
[12:35] <daan> Kissaki: just install ntfs-config
[12:35] <banlieue> Jan_Winnicki: ah, I said nothing then:)
[12:35] <banlieue> misunderstood your question then
[12:35] <daan> Kissaki: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[12:35] <Jowi> Bartzy, man update-grub :)
[12:35] <bigcats_fl> ok, i need to share cable connection with new roommate, a stranger esentially.  best way to monitor for illegal activity under my cable account?  I hate to rent to a new guy who is sucking kiddie stuff off the net, and them come looking for ME!
[12:35] <dirtyhand> whats that prog called that will install flash for you
[12:35] <dirtyhand> in ubuntu
[12:35] <Yorii> flashplugin-nonfree
[12:35] <Yorii> doesn't work for me though
[12:35] <Edgan> Bartzy: then just take someone else's as an example and make the necessary changes, it is pretty simple
[12:35] <Bartzy> Jowi, this update-grub does nothing! :p (or in other words - I'm stupid)
[12:35] <daan> Kissaki: then you get a tool in your menu to set ntfs to rw
[12:36] <Yorii> does anyone know any other way of installing flash to firefox? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work at all for me
[12:36] <Kissaki> daan: ok its getting
[12:36] <Bartzy> Edgan, Jowi, I'm going to restart my live cd and come back with results :p thank you Edgan
[12:36] <banlieue> Yorii: go to a website with flash, and click 'install plugin'
[12:36] <palomer> nautilus is borked
[12:36] <banlieue> in firefox, that is
[12:36] <Yorii> banlieue: that didn't work either
[12:36] <Jowi> Bartzy, using "sudo"?
[12:36] <palomer> it deletes files one at a time through ssh
[12:36] <banlieue> palomer: a bit more would be useful
[12:36] <Bartzy> Jowi, yeah...
[12:37] <palomer> takes too much time!
[12:37] <bigcats_fl> did ya see my q: jowie?
[12:37] <cactaur> Yorii: Have you tried installing flash directly from Adobe then?
[12:37] <Superkuh> Once you have installed ntfs-3g you can edit the fstab for ntfs drives back to just ntsf and it'll load in only read only, right? I have a few slightly corrupt ntfs partitions that cannot be mounted write that have become inaccessible since I used ntfs-config.
[12:37] <Jowi> Bartzy, maybe menu.lst is already up to date then.
[12:37] <banlieue> Yorii: i'm not sure what to tell you as it works fine for me, but it's a common problem (flash not working properly)
[12:37] <Quiet> Hello
[12:37] <mathias_schnell> Could someone tell me how to open up the Nvidia control panel?
[12:38] <Bartzy> Jowi, If I make any changed to the menu.lst , I should run update-grub ?
[12:38] <banlieue> not to mention how many years behind we are in development, flash wise
[12:38] <Yorii> banlieue: I found a guide now for copying it in manually, gonna try that
[12:38] <Yorii> too bad adobe's site is so slow... :(
[12:38] <Kissaki> daan: can i manage which partition to allow W and which one to not?
[12:38] <ibanex> anyone know how to do something to a directory and all of its subdirectores?
[12:38] <Jowi> Bartzy, there is an automagic list and an area where you can make modifications yourself that won't be overwritten. No, if you make changes to menu.lst simply save the file and restart.
[12:38] <Kissaki> daan: or does it just W all the way?
[12:38] <daan> Kissaki: not with that tool
[12:38] <MajorPayne> ibanex: -r?
[12:38] <cactaur> ibanex: typically you use -r
[12:38] <banlieue> ibanex: do... what?
[12:38] <daan> Kissaki: W all the way
[12:38] <Kissaki> daan: ok, ill be carefull then
[12:39] <ibanex> like -r, but i need it for cat
[12:39] <Bartzy> Jowi , so I cant make the changes inside the automagic area ?
[12:39] <Quiet> I'm a noob with questions am I in the right spot?
[12:39] <daan> Kissaki: you can later edit your /etc/fstab file if you want it to be readonly
[12:39] <Kissaki> daan: does allowing W has any chance to damage the data present?
[12:39] <banlieue> Quiet: it seems so, ask away
[12:39] <dirtyhand> damn they completely redid cnn.com, feels web2.0 now
[12:39] <intelikey> ibanex something -R /dir
[12:39] <Jowi> Bartzy, you can. but you should not run update-grub afterwards if you do.
[12:39] <MajorPayne> ibanex: For instance, "cp -r directory/ newdir/" or "mv -r directory/ move/here/"
[12:39] <Kissaki> daan: ok the fstab stuff
[12:39] <banlieue> they redid cnn? *checks*
[12:39] <Bartzy> Jowi, thanks
[12:39] <Jowi> Bartzy, save + restart is enough
[12:39] <MajorPayne> ibanex: for cat?  What do you want to do with cat?
[12:39] <Kissaki> daan: afar, it was on the ubuntu start guide or so
[12:39] <daan> Kissaki: yes there is allways some chance but I haven't had any problems with it so far
[12:40] <Kissaki> daan: then its ok :)
[12:40] <daan> Kissaki: and I am running it quite some time
[12:40] <banlieue> wow, that's horrid
[12:40] <dirtyhand> lol
[12:40] <ibanex> intelikey: MajorPayne: say if i wanted to search for a line of text: cat -R ./* | grep string
[12:40] <dirtyhand> yes
[12:40] <dirtyhand> what were they thinking
[12:40] <intelikey> ibanex cat recursibely ???   that's doesn't sound inteligent to me     what are you trying to accomplish
[12:40] <dirtyhand> feels like a blog
[12:40] <Bartzy> Btw, how do I edit acl's for files/folders ? I know that in AIX it's acledit filename... but I installed acl package in ubuntu and I didn't understand how to work with facl
[12:40] <nich0s> I pose a challenge to all interested.
[12:40] <Kissaki> daan: do you have any suggestions to my partition question? you seem to know alot...
[12:40] <banlieue> amazing how web2.0 manages to undo all the strive made in making websites having their own personal feel
[12:40] <intelikey> ibanex cat is not the tool.    grep is what you want.
[12:40] <MajorPayne> ibanex: You can use grep without cat.
[12:40] <daan> Kissaki: what was the question
[12:41] <Jowi> Bartzy, I recommend you to copy an already working line though in case your modified one does not work. you could end up with an unbootable system
 ibanex: You can use grep without cat.  <<< not only can but should.
[12:41] <ibanex> intelikey: how would i dump the contents of stuff without cat?
[12:41] <Quiet> Cool, I have two actually, 1st involves an ATI 9600 I'm trying to get one desktop on two monitors , both monitors have the samr screen right now
[12:41] <MajorPayne> ibanex: grep regex files
[12:41] <intelikey> ibanex how would you dump it with cat        duh.
[12:41] <Bartzy> Jowi, I didn't understand - what are u refering to ? the menu.lst
[12:41] <Bartzy> ?
[12:42] <Jowi> Bartzy, yes
[12:42] <mathias_schnell> Does anyone know how to access the Nvidia control panel in Ubuntu?
[12:42] <banlieue> mathias_schnell: isn't it listed in your system > administration?
[12:42] <Jowi> Bartzy, copy the entry you want to modify. keep the old entry and modify a copy of that entry.
[12:42] <daan> mathias_schnell: run nvidia-setting from a terminal
[12:42] <ibanex> intelikey: MajorPayne: i'm not sure what you guys mean
[12:42] <Bartzy> Jowi, my thought was to backup my menu.lst, delete it and run update-grub with chroot... then it will create me a new menu.lst and I will see if it fixes the problems with booting ubuntu (says no such partition)
[12:42] <Barracuda> sdf
[12:43] <mathias_schnell> banlieue: If it is, I don't recognize it
[12:43] <intelikey> ibanex example:  grep -HiRe 'im and idiot' / > outputfile
[12:43] <banlieue> i sure miss mIRC ;(
[12:43] <Digitalhighway> i did a search for my lexmark printer....listed as a paperweight lol what can i do now
[12:43] <Kissaki> daan: i installed the ubuntu only on a single partition. I want to partition so that when I need to reinstall the ubuntu(or any other linux), I dont want my data files(video, mp3, text etc..) not to be formatted. I know that I must put them into another partition. But what should be the ratios of partitioning and how much space does the core folders need? like I give 20 gbs to C: of the windows while 40 gb to D:, since data files are taking more space. I hop
[12:43] <Kissaki> e I could tell what i mean :)
[12:43] <daan> mathias_schnell: run nvidia-settings from a terminal
[12:43] <banlieue> mathias_schnell: it might not be enabled to show up
[12:43] <Kissaki> upps, sorry for the last one

[12:43] <MajorPayne> ibanex: If you want to search a all files in a directory for a term "moo" you would do: "grep moo ./directory/*".
[12:43] <mathias_schnell> Ok, the nvidia-settings command worked, thanks
[12:43] <Jowi> Bartzy, no such partition means that you probably messed up the chroot.
[12:43] <cactaur> ibanex: Instead of using "cat -R ./* | grep string" to look for string in the directory, just use "grep string ."
[12:43] <daan> Kissaki: can we take this to another channel maybe?
[12:44] <Digitalhighway> I did a search on linuxprinting.org...my printer is listed as a paperweight ....what are my options
[12:44] <Kissaki> daan: how can we do that? I am new to the Xchat also
[12:44] <Jowi> Bartzy, you can't even boot into recovery mode to your system?
[12:44] <Barracuda> Hi I am running ubuntu server 6.10 does any one how how to set auto login to your system (No GUI)

[12:45] <banlieue> lol
[12:45] <daan> Kissaki: type /join #ubuntu-nl
[12:45] <Jowi> Digitalhighway, not many options available apart from cactaur advice.
[12:45] <banlieue> i think he's suggesting you to go out and buy a new one
[12:45] <Bartzy> Jowi, I mean that it says no such partition in grub... I see the grub menu, and if I want to boot to any ubuntu boot (regular, recovery, memtest) it says "Error 22: No such partition" and throws me to the grub menu again

[12:50] <intelikey> Bartzy just find out what the devices are and edit the devices.map file.     sudo fdisk -l     should list the devices
[12:50] <Barracuda> intelikey:Thanks for your help I will give this a try. my system is running in text mode only so there is no gui. I will modify the gdm file...

[12:51] <moo122334455> does anyone know how to install java on ubuntu
[12:51] <Digitalhighway> new to this linux stuff
[12:51] <intelikey> Barracuda do you want autologin in console mode ?
[12:51] <Barracuda> yes
[12:51] <N3rg4r> No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[12:51] <N3rg4r> yesterday my audio was working correctly
[12:51] <Digitalhighway> how do you run the program x-chat in ubuntu
[12:51] <sdouble> moo122334455: do you just need the jre or the jdk as well?
[12:52] <cactaur> firelord901: Where does it say to choose?
[12:52] <intelikey> Bartzy hd = hard drive   starting at 0 and counting upward.   ,0 means first partition and counting upwards
[12:52] <moo122334455> idk i just want java installed and i have no clue how to do it
[12:52] <Ghost> Hello, When i installed ubuntu 6.06, my wireless card (d-link 120+) worked fine, but when i upgraded to 7.04 the driver was missing ( i am currently under Windows operateing system), what would i have to do to get it working with 7.04?
[12:52] <firelord901> cactar: default its set to headphone but i want it to come out of my speakers
[12:52] <intelikey> Barracuda gdm is g display manager     not for the console.   hold a minute and i'll send you a script
[12:52] <sdouble> I'll restate my question.  Do you want to code with java or just use java applications.
[12:53] <moo122334455> just to use it
[12:53] <Anlar> sdouble: kinda unnecessary.. if he diesn't know what is jdk/jre, then he doesn't code -hopefully :)
[12:53] <Barracuda> intelikey: Thanks.
[12:54] <jerkface03> Does anyone know what packages I have to grab to install jdk/jre 1.6 on dapper?
[12:54] <Bartzy> intelikey - hd(0) for grub means phyisical drive 0... now what's "0" (I have 3 phyiscal drives) and where do I see it ? :] 
[12:54] <sdouble> true anlar, but maybe he wants to learn.  =]   Anyway.  sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[12:54] <sdouble> in your terminal of choice
[12:55] <jerkface03> and switch jre to jdk for the jdk?
[12:55] <sdouble> yeah jerkface03, I was answering someone else with mine.
[12:55] <firelord901> Guys if i want it to come out of my speakers should it be set to headphones to speakrs? by default its set to headphones
[12:55] <sdouble> yours is the same swap jre with jdk and all set
[12:55] <Jowi> Bartzy, what does /boot/grub/device.map say? might be enough to switch (hd0) and (hd1).
[12:55] <ElTimbalino> Hi, I have an error on Ubuntu that stops me from being able to boot up. I am intending to re-install from the CD. I don't really have much on there to loose but don't want to create an extra partition and have 2 x Ubuntu installed on the hard drive.
[12:55] <cactaur> firelord901: Where are you talking about?
[12:55] <Barracuda> intelikey: your file is being rejected by this chat software..
[12:56] <jerkface03> sdouble: Ahhh! it couldn't find either of the packages
[12:56] <intelikey> Bartzy it's (hd0)   that means the first drive that bios sees as bootable.   (hd1) thats the second driver bios sees.     so you list them like    (hd0)   /dev/hda      (hd1)   /dev/hdb     (hd2)   /dev/sda    and so forth.
[12:56] <Bartzy> Jowi, device.map says that my SATA drive is hd2.... and so my menu.lst is for hd2... because XP + linux are on the sATA
[12:56] <intelikey> Barracuda i'll pastebin it for you.
[12:56] <sdouble> sudo apt-get update
[12:56] <resident_moron> I am looking for instruction on how to remotely install Ubuntu Server Edition over SSH connection
[12:56] <sdouble> then try it again
[12:56] <ElTimbalino> Do I just do an install from boot, or do I delete a partition or something. It is a dual install with Micro$oft running on another partition.
[12:56] <Barracuda> intelikey:what is the file extension??
[12:57] <Digitalhighway> gparted?
[12:57] <Jowi> Bartzy, sounds like your bios/cmos has switched the drive order.
[12:57] <nich0s> qiot
[12:57] <intelikey> Barracuda extention ???  heh  that's  a windows thing    but here.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37967
[12:57] <Bartzy> intelikey - so if I check the SATA as the first boot in bios - it will be hd0 for grub ? lol but my 2nd boot in bios is the CDROM.. so it will be hd(1) ? :)
[12:57] <jerkface03> sdouble: Na still can't find it :( Is it in universe?
[12:57] <intelikey> Bartzy correct
[12:58] <sdouble> jerkface03: multiverse
[12:58] <MajorPayne> resident_moron: With no physical contact with the computer?
[12:58] <Bartzy> intelikey - omg. thanks. so if I now change the device.map , SATA to hd(0) and deletes the rest - it will work ?
[12:58] <jerkface03> Are there steps somewhere that tell me how to get apt-get to look at multiverse instead?
[12:58] <intelikey> Bartzy you should probably skip the cdrom  in the devices.map  grub doesn't do real well booting cd's
[12:58] <Quiet> Beryl question         I am running Fiesty 7.04 with an Ati 9600 graphics card,    I have beryl loaded and can load both the metacity and the compwiz window managers but not the beryl  manager any help?
[12:58] <banlieue> oh my dear lord, they now support comments on the cnn.com site
[12:58] <Bartzy> Jowi, in my boot sequence in the bios I only have SATA first, then CDROM... 3rd boot disabled
[12:59] <banlieue> end of the world is nigh
[12:59] <Bartzy> intelikey, so only make SATA hd(0) and delete everything else from there ? (hd1), (hd2)
[12:59] <sdouble> jerkface03: are you using gnome or kde?
[12:59] <jerkface03> neither
[12:59] <intelikey> Bartzy that assumes that the /boot/grub/menu.lst  expects the system to be on (hd0)   yes.
[12:59] <sdouble> well, do you have a synaptic/adept installer?
[12:59] <cactaur> !beryl | quiet
[12:59] <ubotu> quiet: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:00] <Bartzy> intelikey, menu.lst handles (hd0) from device.map , right ?
[01:00] <jerkface03> I'm not too sure what those are? I just do everything thru the shell.
[01:00] <intelikey> right
[01:00] <Quiet> Thank you very much
[01:00] <Barracuda> intelikey: Thanks I will install this script and give it a try.....I appreciated your help....
[01:00] <Bartzy> intelikey and Jowi, thank you both very much, I'm sitting on this problems for hours.... Hope it will be solved now :] 
[01:00] <sdouble> ah, then just edit your /etc/apt/sources.lst to make sure the multiverse isn't commented out.
[01:00] <banlieue> interesting... freespire 2.0 is based on ubuntu 7.04
[01:01] <jerkface03> kk
[01:01] <intelikey> Barracuda i do use that script.  but i warn you.  i make no gurentee about it's usefulness or sanity.
[01:01] <N3rg4r> "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."

[01:01] <intelikey> it's   AS IS ONLY!

[01:02] <intelikey> now anyone with clue-by-four care to look at http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37968
[01:03] <Maoserr> Does anyone use Opera here who uses oSync?
[01:03] <DaltonS> intelikey, sounds like you stole your support policy from Microsoft ;)
[01:03] <banlieue> has anyone here actually used freespire ever?
[01:03] <Boris> Does anyone here have experience installing GRUB so that the second HD in a software RAID-1 array could boot by itself?
[01:03] <intelikey> DaltonS no.  just know that init scripts are major points of destruction.
[01:04] <asdf> anyone running Windows in VirutalBox ?
[01:04] <Barracuda> intelikey:That is ok I won't know that until I give a try. Hopefully it will fix my problem
[01:04] <Boris> Has anyone here used RAID?
[01:04] <Boris> What should I do to make the second HD in a RAID array bootable on its own?
[01:04] <DaltonS> Boris, what type? 0? 1? 01? 10? 3? 5?
[01:05] <Boris> DaltonS: Software RAID-1 in SuSe, 2x10GB IDE w/3 partitions: /, /boot, swap
[01:05] <intelikey> Barracuda for safty you should make sure that root owns that script and that it's only writable by root.   anything that init calls at boot time should be treeted that way.
[01:05] <insomninja> Could somebody help me? I need the openGL development package, but can only find some pkg's with "mesa" in the name which to me is tied with software accel only, Is these the libraries I need even if I have a hardware accelerated graphics card?
[01:06] <SeedSoen> I need some help to install my gfx driver. I have tryed to install the pakagelist driver (nvidia-glx), the driver with automatix and the one from nvidia's own homepage.

[01:06] <intelikey> s/anything/everything!/
[01:06] <Le2> Someone convince me to use Ubuntu over Windows, if you want, but I really see no reason to.
[01:06] <bruenig> !automatix | SeedSoen unfortunate
[01:06] <ubotu> SeedSoen unfortunate: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[01:06] <nonewmsgs> taylor it's a drive in your /home folder called drive_C
[01:07] <DaltonS> Boris,  what is the raid configuration you are using, that was my question. Is there mirroring? Stripping?
[01:07] <intelikey> if no one is going to help with my boot issue, i'll go some where else...   anyone ?

[01:07] <taylor> nonewmsgs: my bad, thanks very much
[01:07] <taylor> nonewmsgs: winewiki misled me
[01:07] <Barracuda> ok
[01:07] <sdouble> If you are happy with Windows.  By all means, stick with it.
[01:08] <DaltonS> Boris, mirroring makes two drives appear as one. I don't think you can just boot to one, you would have to boot to a differant partition.
[01:08] <visha> hey
[01:08] <nonewmsgs> taylor no worries mate.  have fun with wine :)
[01:08] <rr72> can i ssh into my computer and set up vnc or no?

[01:09] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[01:10] <SeedSoen> Okay bruenig ... But what do I have to do then?
[01:10] <DaltonS> Boris, did one of the drives fail?
[01:10] <Boris> DaltonS: I don't understand why they can't make a decent (working) howto step-by-step guide to implementing RAID.
[01:10] <DaltonS> Boris, because RAID is extrememly complicated.
[01:10] <bruenig> SeedSoen, we dont' deal with automatix issues, I think they have a channel #automatix, if they can't help you probably fresh install and don't use automatix
[01:11] <Boris> DaltonS: Not yet, I'm testing. I already tried Ubuntu, but they have a bug so I use SuSe.
[01:11] <bruenig> Anolis, no
[01:11] <taylor> nonewmsgs: Hmm the app still won't run even in Program files... Any chance Beryl or another program is messing it up? I got it to work 2 days ago but i f-d up my computer, and had to reinstall Ubuntu

[01:12] <taylor> nonewmsgs: i dunno hwy its not working now
[01:12] <N3rg4r> np
[01:12] <bruenig> SeedSoen, well we cannot be sure what automatix did and we haven't the patience to try to fix whatever it may have screwed up, the channel officially does not support a box that has used automatix especially when your problem is with something automatix has specifically touched
[01:12] <taylor> in fact nothing is working with wine for me atm
[01:13] <Nevis> hi. svg help needed. anyone?
[01:13] <taylor> nonewmsgs: in fact nothing is working with wine for me atm
[01:13] <SeedSoen> bruenig, I have reinstalled back... my system is clean.
[01:13] <DaltonS> Boris, I sent you a private
[01:13] <bruenig> SeedSoen, you are lying
[01:13] <sdouble> I have a 16x dvd burner that takes about 30 minutes to burn 3gb of data to the disc.  I'm using k3b and at the end, my whole system freezes up.  Anyone know what could be causing this?
[01:13] <SeedSoen> bruenig, no?
[01:13] <ElTimbalino> Hi, I am now installing Ubuntu on a drive that already has a partition for Micro$oft, A partition for Ubuntu-not booting, a partition for files and now I need to set my size for the new ubuntu install. I have 25 gig available. Any suggestion on a minimal size for this install?
[01:13] <Boris> DaltonS: When I try following the instructions, I get "stage1 files not found."
[01:14] <bur[n] e1> Nevis: doing what?  using inkscape?
[01:14] <Nevis> yeah,
[01:14] <bruenig> SeedSoen, automatix is a dirty hack, you try to help someone who has used it and you get crazy stuff happening and you don't know what the deal is, stick with official things or things that you can specifically explain (such as, hey I compiled such and such doing such and such) not I click a box on automatix
[01:14] <Nevis> inkscape works great,
[01:14] <Nevis> the trouble is with the stupid svg rendering engine on media wiki
[01:14] <Nevis> arrow markers don't get rendered.
[01:15] <bruenig> I mean it is fine if you want to use it but you need to recognize that the channel doesn't support what it touches
[01:15] <Nevis> Sorry, I guess i'm in the wrong channel.
[01:15] <SeedSoen> bruenig, omg. What a support. Try to fucking read what i write!!
[01:15] <bur[n] e1> Nevis: export as .png?  yeah, kinda

[01:17] <bruenig> ada1, there are release notes, you might have to hunt for anything of substance the actual website tries to keep it real vague so as not to scare of newbs I think
[01:17] <nonewmsgs> taylor sigh.  i dont know what is wrong then hopefully someone else will step up
[01:17] <Nevis> My installer says "no root filesystem" when I try to select a partition for installation.

[01:24] <raiyo> Question: How many subnets and hosts can you get from the network 172.29.0.0 255.255.255.224?
[01:24] <raiyo> Answer: 2048 subnets and 30 hosts
[01:24] <sdouble> N1degenarx: is it the same box that moves all around your screen when you turn your monitor on while your computer is off?
[01:24] <bla_alb> hi guys, i dont know how to start ubunto after i install windows xp ?
[01:24] <taylor> bruenig You mean apps?
[01:24] <bruenig> Ernz, python whatever.py
[01:24] <Bartzy> Yeah raiyo
[01:24] <bruenig> taylor, what is the command you are running and what is the error
[01:24] <bla_alb> some boot disk or ..
[01:24] <Truma1> raiyo:  Are you trying to figure out how it got that?
[01:24] <B-rabbit> N1degenarx: it is the colour setting for your monitor
[01:24] <N1degenarx> No its not
[01:24] <taylor> Guild Wars(gwsetup.exe), and Linerider(lineriderbeta.exe)
[01:24] <Ernz> bruenig: Genuis, thank you kind sir.
[01:25] <Bartzy> raiyo post the question
[01:25] <bruenig> taylor, you are doing wine gwsetup.exe
[01:25] <taylor> bruenig Guild Wars(gwsetup.exe), and Linerider(lineriderbeta.exe)
[01:25] <sdouble> bla_alb: you should always install windows first.
[01:25] <vox754> Bartzy, I did this recently and I didn't need to chroot, simply I mounted the /boot partition and ran "grub-install", but that may not work if you don't have a separate /boot partition.
 yep
[01:25] <sdouble> bla_alb: try booting into the cd again and see if there is an option to install GRUB
[01:25] <taylor> bruenig, my bad, i typed it worng, thanks lol
[01:25] <sdouble> I don't recall right off.
[01:25] <bla_alb> sdouble so there is no way to start ubunto ??
[01:25] <bruenig> taylor, it works now?
[01:25] <bla_alb> k
[01:25] <taylor> bruenig i thought i needed to specify the fake drive
[01:25] <sotec_prod> sdouble, sorry man, i got busy and missed your link. once more?
[01:25] <Truman_> raiyo: Take the number of borrowed bits; it's 2^(bits borrowed)-2
[01:25] <Canti> I am having issues with my audio cracking. Any ideas how to fix the issue?
[01:25] <taylor> bruenig yep, thanks
[01:25] <N1degenarx> B-rabbit: I dont think so, it just rotates around ,and I cant even get to the monitor menu
[01:26] <cactaur> !grub | bla_alb

[01:26] <raiyo> Question: How many subnets and hosts can you get from the network 172.29.0.0 255.255.255.224?
[01:26] <raiyo> Answer: 2048 subnets and 30 hosts
[01:26] <raiyo> Question: How many subnets and hosts can you get from the network 172.29.0.0 255.255.255.224?
[01:26] <taylor> bruenig lol
[01:26] <raiyo> Answer: 2048 subnets and 30 hosts
[01:26] <Truman_> raiyo: Err, I mean -1, for subnets; then it's the 2^(remaining bits)-2 for hosts
[01:26] <bla_alb> 10x guys
[01:26] <taylor> bruenig let the wine testing begin
[01:26] <sdouble> need to set a higher chat buffer, couldn't scroll up
[01:26] <sotec_prod> awesome
[01:26] <Bartzy> Also, I think something in my fstab file is wrong (it says so in update-grub, lol)... how can I check if anything is wrong with it
[01:27] <sdouble> let me know how that works for you
 a second i will analyse
[01:27] <sdouble> I've had no problems with it so far
[01:27] <sotec_prod> that is completely different than the tutorial i saw. i don't know what the guy was doing.
[01:27] <vox754> Bartzy, yes, I was on live CD, but I didn't chroot to my installed /, just mounted my installed /boot, on the live cd's /, so it replaced the live cd's /boot.
[01:27] <sdouble> heh
[01:27] <Bartzy> raiyo, so you want to know how to do that ? how to split a network ID to several network ID's ?
[01:27] <sotec_prod> brb, i'm going to try it. if i don't come back, X crashed.
[01:27] <sdouble> best of luck  =] 
[01:27] <kuma> hi, i'm having a problem with the remote:/ folder, when i try to access a server form there i get an error that only shows the address i'm trying to connect to. can anybody help me?
 yeessss
[01:28] <Bartzy> vox754, I think it's better to chroot... but maybe that's what giving me this problem with update-grub
[01:28] <Truman_> raiyo: So 172.16 is usually 255.255.0.0, so you're borrowing 8+4; or 12 .. so subnets would be (2^12)-1, which is 4095 .. 4 bits remaining, (2^4)-2 is 30 hosts
[01:28] <vox754> !paste | Bartzy, Paste your menu.lst
[01:28] <ubotu> Bartzy, Paste your menu.lst: 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)
[01:28] <taylor> How do I make a shortcut to a location in mile filesystem, and place the shortcut on the destop?
[01:28] <kuma> hi, i'm having a problem with the remote:/ folder, when i try to access a server form there i get an error that only shows the address i'm trying to connect to. can anybody help me?
[01:28] <Bartzy> vox754, my menu.lst is not good write now. that's why I want to do update-grub. so it would create a new one
[01:29] <Bartzy> write=right lol
[01:29] <thechris> raiyo: i belive thats 2048 subnets with 30 hosts each  (why subtract one from the number of subnets?)
[01:29] <N1degenarx> Hey, could anyone with the knowledge of ubuntu installation open a private chat with me, I am having a resolution error and it wont let me install.
 where did u get from this -> 4 bits remaining, (2^4)-2 is 30 hosts
[01:29] <iShock> N1degenarx: Ask here
[01:29] <Bartzy> rayio, if u want to subnetting, you need to "steal" bits from the host id to the net id...
[01:29] <iShock> !ask | N1degenarx
[01:29] <ubotu> N1degenarx: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:29] <sotec_prod> now ctl+alt+bckspce?
[01:30] <sotec_prod> anything else i should do? or is that it?
[01:30] <vox754> Bartzy, when it comes to grub, you do not need to actually chroot to another system since you won't be using any of it, you just rewrite the MBR and the files on /boot/grub. I guess that was a good point of having a separate /boot partition. (100 MB ext2)
[01:30] <sotec_prod> the evdev reads it right?
[01:30] <switchcat> sigh, spent three hours downloading an ubuntu iso and now I cant do anything with it. (cant seem to get this old RH box to recognize the cd-rw as a cd-r drive
[01:30] <nich0s> Please respond to this message with my nick please :)
[01:30] <Truman_> raiyo:  the subnet 255.255.255.224 is 11111111.11111111.11111111.11110000 in binary; so there are four bits at the very end that haven't been used in subnetting
[01:30] <iShock> nich0s: Why?
[01:31] <Truman_> raiyo:  disregard that
[01:31] <nich0s> iShock: Testing to see if my settings were working

[01:31] <thechris> Truman_: why is it subnets = 2^n -1?  what subnet doesn't get used?
[01:31] <N1degenarx> ishock i sent to a chat invite
[01:31] <Truman_> thechris: Depending on your router .. they usually leave out subnet 0
[01:32] <Bartzy> rayio, in order to know how much bits u need to steal for a certain number of net ID's to create, you need to do a math calculation as follows (say u want 8 net ids: 8 = 2^x) x is the number of bits you need to steal.. 3 in that case.
[01:32] <raiyo> I'm back sorry my internet connection has dead :(
[01:32] <Bartzy> lol, see your private
[01:33] <taylor> N1degenarx I just had this problem last night, your best bet is to hit Ctrl+ALT+F1 when your moniter says "cannot disply...", then in the terminal type sudo nano /etc/x11/xorg.conf  then just hit enter/follow prompt unitl you get to resolution screen.  The just hit enter to enable/disbale a resolution
[01:33] <Bartzy> vox754, my menu.lst is corrupt...
[01:33] <thechris> raiyo: in anycase, in each subnet you have two reserved addresses.  address 0 (net) and 255 (broadcast)
[01:33] <raiyo> yes but
[01:33] <raiyo> where did u get 4 bits ?
[01:33] <Truman_> raiyo: I was wrong there, it's supposed to be 5 bits
[01:33] <Bartzy> raiyo, from the host id
[01:33] <raiyo> when u were counting host bits ? (30hosts)
[01:33] <thechris> raiyo: i got 5 bits.  2^5 = 32.  -2 for the reserved is 30
[01:34] <raiyo> and where di u get that 5 bits?
[01:34] <Truman_> raiyo: because the subnet 255.255.255.224 is actually 11111111.11111111.11111111.11100000 in binary, those last five bits are the hosts
[01:34] <Bartzy> vox754, I want to create a new menu.lst with update-grub, but I can't because I have this error message...
[01:34] <raiyo> what's the formula ?
[01:34] <Daniel1> Can someone help me with Ubuntu Compiz/Compiz-Fusion? I apparently have broken packages but my synaptic wont let me upgrade/reinstall and I don't want to remove them because it will also remove other things. I really need help because I can't apt-get anything it just says missing dependency and wont let me get them, and when I enable compiz I don't have window boards.
[01:34] <raiyo> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
[01:34] <raiyo> understaaand :)
[01:34] <raiyo> just a moment
[01:34] <Truman_> raiyo:  you may want to read this http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-1035-6089187.html, it seems pretty helpful
[01:35] <Bartzy> raiyo, say you want 8 net ID's ... do 8 = 2^x ... x is the number of bits you need to "steal" from the host ID to get 8 net id's
[01:35] <vox754> Bartzy, if you are on the live cd, I suggest you just run "grub-install" and then "update-grub" without chrooting, that should reinstall the MBR and create usable files in the ramdisk /boot/grub, which you can copy to the actual /boot/grub/ the important thing is to boot your system.
[01:35] <sotec_prod> sdouble, i don't think that worked. or are there some configs i need to change?
[01:36] <swine> OmegaCenti, you around ?
[01:36] <taylor> How do I make a shortcut to a file in the ubuntu filesystem?
[01:36] <Truman_> raiyo: Actually, I dunno about that article; heh, I started reading it some more and I dunno how helpful it is
[01:36] <Bartzy> vox754, okay... I will do that. But i can't boot my system (when I try it says "Error 22: No such partition")
[01:36] <OmegaCenti> swine: I got it to work on mine
[01:36] <OmegaCenti> swine: I think I am ready to set you up
[01:36] <thechris> taylor: ln -s (see man ln for info.  also see if there are options on your file brower of choice)
[01:36] <vox754> Bartzy, yes, probably your grub is corrupted in the MBR so a "grub-install" will fix it.

[01:38] <Bartzy> okay.. vox754.. as I understood, device.map is mapping the physical drives to something grub can understand ((hd0) (hd1)) etc... and in device.map, (hd0) is the first boot device in the bios.. is that correct ?
[01:38] <sotec_prod> sdouble, is there a config file for the mouse gestures i need to edit? or are those additions to the xorg.conf only there to allow linux to recognize the mouse as it should be and now i need to install a program of some sort?

[01:39] <Yorii> guess there is no easy way :P
[01:39] <thechris> taylor: in "Nautilu" (file browser?) right click.  "make link"
[01:40] <bruenig> taylor, ln -s /path/to/thing /path/to/shortcut easiest and quickest way
[01:40] <Bartzy> vox754, thank you... I try on the live CD (not in chroot) : sudo apt-get install grub-install and it says there's no such package :\
[01:40] <thechris> taylor: err, make a folder, then right click on the folder
[01:40] <swine> OmegaCenti, awesome; are you going to paste it ?
[01:40] <vox754> Bartzy, well, maybe not the first in the BIOS order, but the first in the IDE channel, like master, slave.
[01:40] <OmegaCenti> swine: yeah one sec working on it
[01:41] <taylor> bruenig ty
[01:41] <taylor> thechris kk ty
[01:41] <vox754> Bartzy, it is not a package, it is an utility which is already installed. Just use it, "man grub-install"
[01:41] <Bartzy> vox754 - so if I have IDE and SATA ? because that's my problem... device.map says (hd0) is IDE MASTER, (hd1) is IDE SLAVE and (hd2) is SATA.... and my ubuntu and xp are in SATA....
[01:43] <Junecy> aMule has frozen...how do I force it to quit?
[01:43] <Bartzy> vox754, so what I write in the terminal ? grub-install asks me for a device.. what's the live cd device ?
[01:43] <OmegaCenti> swine: Okay try this one: http://rafb.net/p/dqM43c36.html
[01:43] <kuma> hi, i'm having a problem with the remote:/ folder, when i try to access a server form there i get an error that only shows the address i'm trying to connect to. can anybody help me?
[01:44] <Junecy> nevermind. I got it
[01:44] <Junecy> Thanks!
[01:44] <vox754> Bartzy, errmm... read the man page. I have also SATA and PATA, and for me (hd0) is SATA and (hd1) is PATA
[01:44] <CoasterMaster> how can I install dbx and lint on my copy of ubuntu?
[01:44] <swine> OmegaCenti, one sec
[01:44] <Bartzy> vox754, so how is it just the opposite for me ? maybe its a mistake ? can some tool regenerate device.map ... ?
[01:45] <swine> OmegaCenti, nothing
[01:45] <Daniel1> /reconnect
[01:45] <swine> OmegaCenti, hold on let me try something else first
[01:45] <OmegaCenti> swine: what?! alright send me the new xorg and the X.org.0.log
[01:45] <swine> OmegaCenti, monitor says ananlog
[01:45] <swine> OmegaCenti, let me switch it over to digital explicity
[01:45] <OmegaCenti> swine: I am pretty sure I know what it is... wait so it is receiving something?
[01:46] <raiyo> THX a lot guys.... <Truman_> <Bartzy> <thechris>
[01:46] <Bartzy> np raiyo
[01:46] <vox754> Bartzy, "grub-install" and "update-grub" supposedly create and reconfigure things under /boot/grub  I'm not sure, since for me it worked okay and you tend to forget things that work and remember those that doesn't
[01:46] <swine> OmegaCenti, nope
[01:46] <swine> OmegaCenti, no signal :(
[01:46] <Fylk> What's the terminal comand to uninstall?
[01:46] <Bartzy> vox754.. sorry for annoying you :\
[01:46] <Truman_> raiyo:  np, did you figure it out?
[01:46] <OmegaCenti> swine: send me xorg.conf and X log.. I am sure I can get it if I format it my way.
[01:46] <Truman_> I always hated subnetting
[01:46] <swine> OmegaCenti, well i just used the xorg.conf that you gave me
[01:46] <Yorii> anyone got a link for a graphic drivers how-to?
[01:47] <swine> OmegaCenti, so you've seen the xorg.conf
[01:47] <OmegaCenti> swine: yeah, but I tried not to change anything
[01:47] <Bartzy> vox754, but I still don't get how to grub-install on the live CD ram, like you said.. there's no device to the live CD
[01:47] <OmegaCenti> swine: one sec.
[01:47] <Daniel1> Can anyone help me fix my synaptics
[01:47] <OmegaCenti> swine: going to modify yours heavily one sec
 yeppp 100% .... i made all the exercises in a minute :D u're my best friends :D
[01:47] <Truman_> raiyo: Heh, thanks
[01:47] <Bartzy> raiyo, you are in some course or something ? :)
[01:47] <vox754> Bartzy, it's okay, just remember that you cannot damage your data, you are just messing with the boot loader. I think the device would be a grub device or a linux device that is (hd0) or /dev/sda
[01:48] <raiyo> yep i'm learning on CCNA :)
[01:48] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/nD49sF52.html
[01:48] <swine> OmegaCenti, there's the log output
[01:48] <Truman_> raiyo:  Good luck
[01:48] <Bartzy> vox754, ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[01:48] <Bartzy> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[01:48] <raiyo> thx a lot :)
[01:48] <swine> OmegaCenti, (II) I810(0): Display Info: DFP (digital flat panel): attached: TRUE, present: TRUE, size: (1680,1680)
[01:48] <OmegaCenti> swine: lol oops I see the problem :)
[01:49] <sdouble> sotec_prod: sorry, went afk.  That is all I did and my sideways and back button work fine
[01:49] <swine> OmegaCenti, this looks like progress
[01:49] <swine> OmegaCenti, it would appear to be seeing the panel now
[01:49] <OmegaCenti> swine: yeah, formatting error on my part.
[01:49] <swine> 1680 is indeed the correct resolution
[01:49] <swine> OmegaCenti, althouhg it's not 1680x1680
[01:49] <swine> which is what the log seems to indicate
[01:49] <abolinasomeone> bye
[01:49] <sotec_prod> with what programs/games sdouble?
[01:50] <swine> OmegaCenti, it's 1680 widescreen, whatever the number of veritcal pixels that is
[01:50] <vox754> Bartzy, are you asking or confirming?
[01:50] <OmegaCenti> swine: hold on...
[01:50] <pi3> wow, it's happening something really weird and at the same time annoying
[01:50] <swine> OmegaCenti, ok :)
[01:50] <OmegaCenti> swine: too much at once.. let me get the screen displaying first off
[01:50] <Bartzy> vox754, I'm showing you the error... "Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device."
[01:50] <pi3> I have a song playing the same couple of seconds (10..20) and no player open
[01:51] <n1digenarex> Hey taylor, it dident work, and the box that rotates around the screen is my monitros box, not ubuntu's, it says at the bottom of the box "Analog" and it says in the box "Not optimum resolution, reccomended resolution 1680x1050x60hz" What do I do?
[01:51] <pi3> no player running (system monitor)
[01:51] <pi3> who can help me?
[01:51] <Bartzy> vox754, I just don't understand - u said what I want is to grub-install to the ram (live cd), and then copy the needed good files to my SATA... but if I give grub-install the SATA (/dev/sda)... it makes no sense :\
[01:51] <Jordan_U> pi3, How did it start?
[01:52] <sotec_prod> sdouble, my protocol section says "ImPS/2"
[01:52] <sotec_prod> is that right?
[01:52] <mharris> hey how to  install e16?
[01:52] <sotec_prod> it's a USB mouse
[01:52] <pi3> Jordan_U, doubled click on a mp3
[01:52] <kuma> hi, i'm having a problem with the remote:/ folder, when i try to access a server form there i get an error that only shows the address i'm trying to connect to. can anybody help me?
[01:53] <pi3> Jordan_U, but even though the player didn't open, the song was playing
[01:53] <n1digenarex> Hey everyone, when I am in the proccess of installing, after it sits at the ubuntu loading screen, my screen goes black, and then my monitor displays a box, it says analog at the bottom and scrolls around, in the box it says "Not optimum resolution, reccomended resolution 1680x150x60hz" or at least I think, can anyone help?
[01:53] <MajorPayne> Jordan_U: Ubuntu plays a clip from a song if you hold your mouse over it.
[01:53] <Jordan_U> pi3, What program do you have set to play mp3's by default?
[01:53] <pi3> Jordan_U, and now I closed nautilus (where I firstly clicked on the song) and now it's gone
[01:53] <vox754> Bartzy, there are two steps involved. Grub is installed to the MBR, that is stage1, the rest of the files to boot an operating system stage1.5 and stage2 are located on /boot/grub. I think the "device" is for installing grub in the MBR but maybe you need to provide an additional option to the /boot directory in the system.
[01:53] <sotec_prod> i also had 1-8 in the buttonmapping section, not 1 2 3 6 7 8
[01:53] <MajorPayne> err, pi3, The song will play if you hold your mouse over it.
[01:53] <sotec_prod> i'll try it again
[01:53] <sotec_prod> brb
[01:54] <Bartzy> vox754 - so... any idea whats the syntax ?
[01:54] <pi3> Jordan_U, the default, Movie Player
[01:54] <MajorPayne> pi3, like a preview.
[01:54] <bruenig> pi3, known as totem
[01:54] <pi3> MajorPayne, oh really?
[01:54] <pi3> well that was confusing!
[01:54] <MajorPayne> pi3, yes.
[01:54] <OmegaCenti> swine: try this: http://rafb.net/p/LIYzg220.html
[01:54] <Jordan_U> pi3, I think that MajorPayne is right that it is nautilus ( the file browser ) playing the file
[01:54] <OmegaCenti> swine: if that doesn't work send me the X log again if it fails
[01:54] <nixnoob> can anyone tell me how to compile fglrx on a custom kernel?
[01:54] <pi3> Jordan_U, yes you are right
[01:55] <swine> OmegaCenti, sec ...
[01:55] <MajorPayne> pi3, Jordan_U, I am not 100% sure but it should stop when you take your mouse off the song.
[01:55] <raiyo> one more question :(
[01:55] <raiyo> Question: You are designing a subnet mask for the 172.18.0.0 network. You want 160 subnets with up to 140 hosts on each subnet. What subnet mask should you use?
[01:55] <vox754> Bartzy, it is the manual pages, you just need to read them and try different stuff until it returns no errors. You may need to chroot to your installed system. Then maybe you could try rebooting to see if it worked.
[01:55] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, Does ctrl+alt+F1 bring you to a terminal?
[01:56] <n1digenarex> No it doesent
[01:56] <firelord901> Hi, I had to update my alsa so I cna get the sound to work. I followed the instructions for the Intel HDA and it still doesn't work.
[01:56] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, Does ctrl+alt+backspace do anything?
[01:56] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, no it doesn't
[01:57] <OmegaCenti> You'll need the folllowing in your serial.conf or setserial.conf or whatever file your distro has to set up it's serial ports... which one is this for Ubuntu?
[01:57] <VikJES> exit
[01:57] <raiyo> Question: You are designing a subnet mask for the 172.18.0.0 network. You want 160 subnets with up to 140 hosts on each subnet. What subnet mask should you use?
[01:57] <Lekrem> lolage
[01:57] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, Have you tried booting in safe graphics mode?
[01:57] <random-person> raiyo,  lemme get my cisco book out...
[01:57] <Truman_> heh
[01:58] <sdouble> sotec_prod: mine says "ExplorerPS/2"  I have exactly this : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28885/
 kk I'm waitin'
[01:58] <sotec_prod> looking
[01:58] <Truman_> raiyo:  probably 7 bits borrowed, right? ..
[01:58] <random-person> *** lemme find my cisco book ***
[01:58] <sotec_prod> ok, i'll try ExplorerPS/2
[01:58] <Truman_> raiyo: Nope, you'll need 8:  255.255.255.0, I think
[01:58] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, Yes, but then it goes (After the loading screen) to a blank peach screen with my mouse. Is that where I should ctrl+alt+f1?
 actually I don't understand :)
[01:58] <sotec_prod> that's the only difference with our configs
[01:59] <kikkomanchow> !lamp
[01:59] <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+)
 yep that's right
[01:59] <Bartzy> vox754, I tried a lot of things... just don't get it.
[01:59] <sotec_prod> ok brb
 but how did u do that?
[01:59] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, Yes, what GPU do you have?
[01:59] <random-person> Truman_, that math always screws me up.
[02:00] <Truman_> raiyo:  Remember both formulas:  subnets are (2^n)-1 and hosts are (2^n)-2, where n is the number of bits you're borrowing
[02:00] <vox754> Bartzy, same for me. It worked within the two hours so I was cool.
[02:00] <Truman_> random-person: I know:  I can't keep my 2^ whatever straight
[02:00] <Bah> morning
[02:00] <Bah> anyone here using Utorrent?
[02:00] <sotec_prod> oh sweet!
[02:00] <sotec_prod> it works!
[02:00] <Bah> I need some help with it
[02:00] <Lekrem> :moring altho its afternoon here
[02:00] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, Sorry for this, but whats a GPU? is that the same as CPU? if so, then I have an intel core2 duo.
[02:00] <sotec_prod> hellova thanks sdouble!
[02:00] <blithen> Bah: uTorrent can be used with linux?
[02:01] <sdouble> working I assume?  =] 
[02:01] <Bah> through Wine
[02:01] <Bah> working
[02:01] <blithen> Yeah
[02:01] <Bah> was working fine
[02:01] <Bah> but now...
[02:01] <Bah> I have a problem
[02:01] <sotec_prod> lol
[02:01] <avis> i got a wide screen monitor to replace my old one.  i am getting a white screen when i do a startx after dpkg-reconfigure.  it otherwise worked fine with my old installation though i started over because my terminals were white and without borders
[02:01] <random-person> Truman_, are you sure it's not 2^n -2 for both? accounting for .0 and .255 (broadcast)
[02:01] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, GPU is the Graphics Processing Unit ( Graphics Card )
[02:01] <blithen> I use the Azuerus client.
[02:01] <blithen> Sorry I'm not any help :/
[02:01] <swine> OmegaCenti, you there ?
[02:01] <MajorPayne> ktorrent is a lot like uTorrent but native to Linux.
[02:01] <kbrooks> wow, 72 updates is a lot.
 I know this forumlas. buuut... how to decide this type of
[02:01] <Bah> the utorrent control panel won't hosw up
[02:01] <swine> OmegaCenti, that totally bombed
[02:01] <OmegaCenti> swine: yeah
[02:01] <sotec_prod> alright, time for dinner. thanks again sdouble
[02:01] <Truman_> raiyo: So you have to get both (2^n)-1 and (2^n)-2 to be at least 140 and 160 or whatever you'd said
[02:01] <sdouble> np, enjoy
[02:01] <Lekrem> Bah what is it?
[02:01] <Bah> well..
[02:01] <swine> OmegaCenti, it bombed so badly the graphics card shit itself :)
[02:01] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, Ok, I have a 6600 eVGA Gefore LE (Nvidia)
[02:01] <OmegaCenti> swine: hold one lemme look at it and send me the X file
[02:01] <Truman_> random-person: No, the only one you don't include on the subnet is subnet 0
[02:01] <Bah> I have the utorrent in my taskbar
[02:02] <swine> OmegaCenti, you already have my config
[02:02] <Bah> but when I double click to bring it up
[02:02] <Bah> nothing happens
[02:02] <OmegaCenti> swine: I know
[02:02] <swine> OmegaCenti, the error it gave was "no screens found"
[02:02] <OmegaCenti> swine: send me X var log 0
[02:02] <Bah> I tried removing it
[02:02] <swine> OmegaCenti, or similar
[02:02] <Bah> and installing it again
[02:02] <Bah> but same problem
[02:02] <Bah> if I put the mouse over
[02:02] <OmegaCenti> swine: thats fine for now, send me the Xorg anyways
[02:02] <Bah> it shows the torrents are downloading
[02:02] <OmegaCenti> swine: I mean the X log
[02:02] <Truman_> raiyo: You just have to think:  What number for n will give you the right amount for both subnets and host with those formulas?
[02:02] <Lekrem> Bah no idea
[02:02] <MajorPayne> swine: The more important error message normaly comes just before that message.
[02:03] <blithen> Did you try uninstalling wine?
[02:03] <Jordan_U> n1c0las, Ok, run this and choose "nvidia" for the driver and whatever the monitor told you for the resolution and refresh rate, if you don't know the answer to a question just use the default: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
 ahaaa
[02:03] <Truman_> raiyo: Does that make sense at all?
[02:03] <Yorii> How do I disable IPv6 support?
[02:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/LYQEsn35.html
[02:03] <raiyo> 2^8=256 right ?
[02:03] <Jordan_U> Yorii, Why do you want to?
[02:03] <swine> OmegaCenti, there's the log output
[02:03] <Yorii> Jordan_U: my ISP hates me
 2^8=256 right ?
[02:03] <Bartzy> raiyo, yes
[02:03] <OmegaCenti> swine: I am also going to need the xorg.conf.. yours dissappeared on me
[02:04] <Bah> and than reinstalling Wine?
[02:04] <Bah> nope...
[02:04] <Bah> hmm
[02:04] <Truman_> raiyo: that's correct
 ok
[02:04] <chlug> hey, how do i upgrade from edgy to feisty?
[02:04] <swine> OmegaCenti, i already over-wrote it ...
[02:04] <Bassetts> who can I contact about a problem with the forums?
[02:04] <OmegaCenti> swine: alright hold on.. I will see what I can do
[02:04] <swine> OmegaCenti, let me check the pastebin buffer though
[02:04] <Yorii> Jordan_U: same problem in Vista, my ISP kills connections with IPv6 for some reasons above my understanding
[02:04] <Jordan_U> Yorii, So does mine, for some inexplicable reason using OpenDNS solved my speed problems with ipv6 ( ~ 16 secinds to resolve )
[02:05] <avis> how do i install the "nvidia" display driver instead of nv from terminal before doing a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (its not showing up)
[02:05] <Yorii> tell me how to do that Jordan_U
[02:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/LIYzg220.html
[02:05] <Lekrem> chlug: sudo apt-get upgrade i believe
[02:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, it's still in pastebin :)
[02:05] <blithen> Bah: TRy uninstalling wine, it seems like something is wrong with that. Because if it shows utorrent is downloading the torrents.
[02:05] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, Ok, I have a 6600 eVGA Gefore LE (Nvidia)
[02:05] <random-person> Truman_, my CCNA book (Sybex) says that it's (2^n) -2 for both. since you have to account for all bits on and all bits off.
[02:05] <blithen> Nothing is wrong with uTorrent.
[02:05] <OmegaCenti> swine: found one error we can address. hold on
[02:05] <Bah> doing it now
[02:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, fyi, the second display is a flat panel too
 I'll try it now :)
[02:05] <swine> OmegaCenti, using dVI, not VGA
[02:06] <Yorii> Jordan_U: I can't even google stuff :( it's so annoying
[02:06] <Bassetts> who can I contact about a problem with the forums?
[02:06] <swine> OmegaCenti, ok ...
[02:06] <jeremysan> Hi all, I recently installed Wine and ran winecfg, but I am unable to install .exe programs.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[02:06] <avis> swine you sound like you might be havintg a similar problem to myself
[02:06] <josue> hola
[02:06] <Jordan_U> Yorii, http://www.opendns.com/ Note that this worked magically for me but likely won't for you.
[02:06] <homerj> Bassetts, Joel Hodges
[02:06] <Truman_> random-person: Really?  Ohh, I know what I'm doing wrong; (2^n)-1 is for routers that allow you to use subnet 0
[02:06] <swine> avis, trying to get an intel graphics card to do dual head
[02:06] <josue> hi
[02:06] <swine> avis, not going very well :)
[02:06] <Bassetts> homerj, how do I get in contact with him?
[02:06] <Bah> nope
[02:06] <Bah> same problem
[02:06] <Yorii> Jordan_U: I wouldn't be surprised if it actually did
[02:06] <josue> no
[02:06] <Bah> just uninstalled and reinstalled
[02:06] <homerj> Bassetts, I don't know
[02:06] <blithen> Wow...
[02:07] <Bassetts> homerj, thanks anyway =)
[02:07] <avis> oh i see.  nevermind.  i have a wide screen monitor and i'm getting a white screen on new install/startx
[02:07] <homerj> as Peter Toukmond
[02:07] <OmegaCenti> swine: almost there :)
[02:07] <homerj> ask
[02:07] <blithen> Hmmm.
[02:07] <swine> OmegaCenti, i'll believe it when i see it ;)
[02:07] <jeremysan> Hi all, I recently installed Wine and ran winecfg, but I am unable to install .exe programs.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[02:07] <TaJMoX> jeremysan: not enough information - what is the error you get when you run the exe ?
[02:07] <random-person> Truman_, -1, -2... if you are relying on that one subnet then you will probably have a bigger issue somewhere else anyways
[02:07] <Yorii> Jordan_U: :DDDDDDDDD Worked wonders!
[02:07] <Yorii> thanks alot mate
[02:07] <Truman_> random-person: Very true
[02:08] <Jordan_U> Yorii, WOW!
[02:08] <Digitalhighway> I have a lexmark x7170 printer connected to a compaq computer which is on a home network.  If i am using a dell laptop with ubuntu 6.06 installed, can I access the windows based compaq computer
[02:08] <nich0s> When I try to get the information about eth0 on my computer. All that it will tell me about the interface it that it is "Wired Ethernet (eth0)"
[02:08] <nich0s> Shouldn't it be a little bit more descriptive about the card I have?
[02:08] <random-person> Truman_, thanks for making me look that up :) forgot all about that shit.
[02:08] <n1digenarex> Hey everyone, when I am in the proccess of installing, after it sits at the ubuntu loading screen, my screen goes black, and then my monitor displays a box, it says analog at the bottom and scrolls around, in the box it says "Not optimum resolution, reccomended resolution 1680x150x60hz" or at least I think, can anyone help?
[02:08] <jeremysan> TaJMoX, Well it is as though Wine is not even installed at all, I downloaded an .exe file, and when I double click on it (or right click on it) It says I have no program that can open it.
[02:09] <Truman_> random-person: heh, anytime
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Yorii, That was formerly one of two networking problems that make no sense whatsoever and I had only encountered at my house :)
[02:09] <kbrooks> What could I do with my Ubuntu laptop, if any?
[02:09] <TaJMoX> jeremysan: try running it in a terminal - wine filename.exe
[02:09] <kbrooks> Wireless works (with a very "trivial" installation procedure).
[02:09] <TaJMoX> jeremysan: also you can right click it and do 'open with application'
[02:09] <theBishop> i'm having a problem where my Ipod is mounted as Read-Only
[02:10] <jeremysan> TaJMoX, when I go "open with application, wine is not in the list of applications to choose from.
[02:10] <nich0s>  When I try to get the information about eth0 on my
[02:10] <nich0s>           computer. All that it will tell me about the interface it that it is
[02:10] <nich0s>           "Wired Ethernet (eth0)"
[02:10] <Digitalhighway> where can on find good websites for lexmark printers and ubuntu
[02:11] <TaJMoX> jeremysan: choose custom and type in wine
[02:11] <TaJMoX> jeremysan: you sure wine is installed?   go into terminal and type wine --version
[02:11] <krazye> where is the default audio device located in the file system?

[02:11] <ubotu> random-person: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:11] <Jordan_U> krazye, /dev/dsp ?
[02:11] <jeremysan> wait, TaJMoX, when I used custom command and put Wine it worked.
[02:11] <jeremysan> Thank you
[02:12] <OmegaCenti> swine: try this: http://rafb.net/p/36RQIB89.html
[02:12] <Digitalhighway> anyone own a lexmark printer?
[02:12] <krazye> thats where I thought Jordan
[02:12] <random-person> good thing you let me know about that 10 minutes later...
[02:12] <TaJMoX> n1digenarex: ATI Mobility card?
[02:12] <krazye> i think your right, but for some reason my VM says it can't be used because its busy
[02:12] <OmegaCenti> swine: alive?
[02:13] <krazye> ok nevermind,
[02:13] <krazye> stupid rhymebox was messing vmware audio up
[02:13] <swine> OmegaCenti, yes, it failed
[02:13] <krazye> thanks for the help Jordan
[02:13] <TaJMoX> random-person: it was 4 minutes
[02:13] <OmegaCenti> swine: send log
[02:13] <OmegaCenti> I have more tricks up my sleeve
[02:13] <Jordan_U> krazye, np
[02:14] <nekomancer> Hello room.  Could someone please direct me to a pci wifi card that will work with wpa out of the box in ubuntu?
[02:14] <krazye> do you know why that is?
[02:14] <Jordan_U> !hardware | nekomancer
[02:14] <ubotu> nekomancer: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:14] <krazye> why I cant have audio running from vmware and ubuntu at the same time
[02:14] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/YQxZZS66.html
[02:14] <OmegaCenti> swine: send x.. sweet
[02:15] <swine> EE) I810(0): Monitor 1 or Monitor 2 cannot be type NONE in DualHead, Clone or MergedFB setup
[02:15] <Jordan_U> krazye, I havn't looked into it much but it seems that VMware steals control of the sound card
[02:15] <nekomancer> Jordan_U, i have been there and most of the listed wifi cards are outdated - at least i cannot find a safe website from which to purchase them
[02:15] <krazye> i c
[02:15] <krazye> thanks again

[02:15] <luciano-uisk> hi
[02:15] <harushimo> I have a question
[02:15] <harushimo> how to I install enlightenment
[02:16] <luciano-uisk> im havin trouble with my soundcards under linux
[02:16] <Jordan_U> nekomancer, AFIK all intel wireless cards are good, you could look at dell.com/ubuntu or system76 and see what wireless cards they use
[02:16] <nekomancer> Jordan_U, thank you
[02:16] <Jordan_U> nekobaka, np
[02:16] <punzas> how to find out the x11 library version?
[02:16] <raiyo> I couldnot understand at all :(
[02:16] <raiyo> :(:(
[02:17] <raiyo> ok bye guys
[02:17] <raiyo> seee ya
[02:17] <Truman_> raiyo:  It's alright, it took me awhile before I got it
[02:17] <OmegaCenti> swine: Try this: http://rafb.net/p/MHXqVv46.html
[02:17] <luciano-uisk> i have a motherboard that, under windows, autodetect the phones, but under linux it just cant detect the onboard soundcard
[02:17] <Jordan_U> harushimo, install the package "enlightenment" from synaptic / apt
[02:17] <OmegaCenti> swine: that one SHOULD work
[02:17] <luciano-uisk> anyone have a tip?
[02:17] <Truman_> raiyo: You may want to look up subnetting on google, it might have some pictures or something that'd make it easier to visualize
[02:17] <cyberg7358> I am using ubuntu 7.04. When I receive automatic updates there is always a error message whe they are installed. I will use the gimp update as a example. Is this normal?
[02:17] <harushimo> how about through the command line
[02:17] <n1digenarex> Hey everyone, when I am in the proccess of installing, after it sits at the ubuntu loading screen, my screen goes black, and then my monitor displays a box, it says analog at the bottom and scrolls around, in the box it says "Not optimum resolution, reccomended resolution 1680x150x60hz" or at least I think, can anyone help?
 ok man thx :)
[02:18] <raiyo> exit
[02:18] <Jordan_U> harushimo, sudo apt-get install enlightenment
[02:18] <harushimo> that's what I thought. I just wanted to make sure the command is right
[02:18] <Jordan_U> harushimo, you need to have universe enabled though
[02:18] <harushimo> what's universe
[02:18] <harushimo> I never heard of it
[02:18] <harushimo> thats why
[02:18] <Jordan_U> !universe | harushimo
[02:18] <ubotu> harushimo: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:19] <harushimo> thanks
[02:19] <swine> OmegaCenti, let's give it a go :)
[02:19] <Jordan_U> n1digenarex, Did you run dpkg-reconfigure ?
[02:19] <OmegaCenti> swine: sweet
[02:19] <Jordan_U> harushimo, np
[02:19] <johnSmith> The second HD in my software RAID-1 array cannot boot by itself. How do I install a bootloader onto it?
[02:20] <swine> OmegaCenti, it bombd
[02:20] <Jordan_U> !grub | Boris
[02:20] <ubotu> Boris: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:20] <swine> OmegaCenti, as usual :)
[02:20] <OmegaCenti> swine: send X log
[02:20] <OmegaCenti> swine: its my formatting...
[02:20] <Boris> Jordan_U: The howto's are of no help to me. Do you have experience with GRUB?
[02:20] <Jordan_U> Boris, Yes
[02:20] <luciano-uisk> my linux cant detect the soundcard, it appeared as if it didnt exist. i tried some boot options but i couldnt make the system recognize the onboard soundcard. anyonee have some suggestion?
[02:21] <OmegaCenti> swine: you sure will be getting good at sending X logs though..
[02:21] <swine> OmegaCenti, yeah, i'm wiaintg on pastebin
[02:21] <harushimo> one other quick question.. do I install universe like this sudo apt-get install universe
[02:21] <swine> OmegaCenti, it's kind of slow :)
[02:21] <witless> hello.  we are two ubuntu users sharing the same machine by switching desktops ("switch user"); but since upgrading my motherboard to one with an Intel G2G965 graphics chip, switching causes X to lock up.
[02:21] <Boris> Jordan_U: I have a software RAID-1 array in SuSe with /, /boot, swap partitions in which the second HD cannot boot by itself.
[02:21] <witless> is anyone aware of a fix?
[02:21] <swine> OmegaCenti, http://rafb.net/p/QznkNn51.html
[02:21] <NickGH> hey guys.. could someone please tell me if i'm an idiot.
[02:22] <NickGH> ;)
[02:22] <franz> [VPN]  how do i do i configure my vpn? In windows, i just enter the host name, and my username / password. In ubuntu, there seems to be a lot more options ( or at least with Kvpnc )
[02:22] <Boris> Jordan_U: I tried following these directions: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Gentoo_Install_on_Software_RAID#Installing_Grub_onto_both_MBRs
[02:22] <NickGH> i've been using vmserver for a few weeks, and got up to use it this morning and the binary has dissapeared
[02:22] <NickGH> its not in the applications menu either
[02:22] <Boris> Jordan_U: But when I run "setup (hd{0})" it says "stage1 file not found."
[02:22] <shiester_miester> hey guys, what was the shortcut to force ubuntu to go to the command prompt?
[02:23] <shiester_miester> ctrl + alt + esc, or something like that?
[02:23] <NickGH> i sure as hell don't recall doing anything that would have removed it...but, i'm not willing to rule out the posibility that it was a luser cause
[02:23] <OmegaCenti> swine, joine me in channel #OmegaCenti
[02:23] <Boris> shiester_miester: Ctrl+Alt+F{n}
[02:23] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, I am new to the ubuntu software, I am just tryint to install
[02:23] <shiester_miester> Boris, n = 1?
[02:23] <n1digenarex> Sorry for the late response
[02:23] <Boris> shiester_miester: sure, but 7 goes back to gui.
[02:23] <shiester_miester> oh, really?
[02:24] <Jordan_U> Boris, Why the {}?
[02:24] <Boris> Jordan_U: syntax
[02:24] <shiester_miester> 1 goes to command prompt, 7 returns back to gui?
[02:24] <shiester_miester> thats great
[02:24] <Boris> shiester_miester: There are several prompts.
[02:24] <shiester_miester> i was about to ask how do you get back to the gui without going "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" :P
[02:24] <Boris> Jordan_U: Any ideas?
[02:25] <Jordan_U> Boris, That is not needed, if it is accepted at all
[02:25] <bruenig> shiester_miester, in evidence of cli dominance there are 6 control alt f#'s for command prompts and one for gui
[02:25] <shiester_miester> Boris, thats freaking awesome, thanks :D
[02:25] <Boris> shiester_miester: np
[02:25] <Fezzler> Are the permissions I need to set for a Vista PC to access Ubuntu folders set from Windows or Ubuntu?
[02:25] <Hikaru79> Is it possible to create symbolic links to/from files on a FAT32 partition?
[02:25] <anandanbu> i have a problem with window manager, my ubuntu 7.04 says 'no window manger is running for you' what may be the reason
[02:25] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, command chvt too
[02:25] <Boris> Jordan_U: Then how could I make the second HD boot?
[02:25] <Fezzler> I have one folder that Windows says permission is not set right
[02:25] <bruenig> Hikaru79, perhaps from, but I doubt to
[02:25] <shiester_miester> i was playing soldat and it crashed, and i have to do ctrl+alt+f1 to exit to command prompt, but then i cant get the gui back to how it was
[02:25] <bruenig> Hikaru79, try it out though
[02:26] <n1digenarex> Jordan_U, I am new to the software, I am trying to install
[02:26] <hux> how do i find out my current gw in ubuntu?
[02:26] <Hikaru79> bruenig, well, if you try to do it the same way you'd do it on ext3, you simply get "Operation not permitted" even as superuser
[02:26] <Hikaru79> I was hoping there was some "trick" or something
[02:26] <bruenig> Hikaru79, yeah makes sense
[02:26] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, you pass it the f# (not literally "fNUMBER_HERE", but rather "NUMBER_HERE", without the quotes) of the virtual terminal you want tp switch to.
[02:26] <Jordan_U> Boris, setup (hd0)  May be (hd1)
[02:26] <Hikaru79> I guess I'll just mount it as a --bind
[02:26] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, e.g. chvt 1
[02:26] <Boris> Jordan_U: I get "stage1 files not found."
[02:27] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, so like chvt 1
[02:27] <shiester_miester> yeah
[02:27] <Ominous> whats the command line to make a file executable
[02:27] <bruenig> Ominous, chmod +x file
[02:27] <shiester_miester> when i type chvt 1 it says "couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console :/
[02:27] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, the GUI is in a vt, 7 normally
[02:28] <shiester_miester> so what does the other ctrl+alt+fn buttons do?  like f8,9,10,11,12?
[02:28] <witless> does anyone know how to fix a broken "switch user" ?
[02:28] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, unsure.
[02:28] <Jordan_U> Boris, What do you get from running "find /boot/grub/stage1" from the grub prompt?
[02:28] <shiester_miester> i guess ill try them and see
[02:28] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, try them and see.
[02:29] <Hikaru79> *sigh* FAT32 is such a retarded filesystem :(
[02:29] <Boris> shiester_miester: I tried, I got diag. msgs.
[02:29] <Digitalhighway> I am receiving an error message in evolution - "error while storing folder"
[02:29] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, f8 seems to be some kind of boot log
[02:29] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, umm, would you really want that in your operating system anyway?
[02:29] <Digitalhighway> error while fetching mail
[02:29] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, want what?
[02:29] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, (that = other function keys restart OS)
[02:29] <Boris> Jordan_U: /boot/grub/stage1
[02:30] <Hikaru79> How about, does anyone know if it's possible to convert a fat32 partition to an ext3 partition, without losing data? (And assuming there's too much of it to back up somewhere else temporarily)
[02:30] <shiester_miester> well like the so-called "magic sysrq" restarts the kernel
[02:30] <bassgoon> If I use the alternate installer can I specify the use of a swapfile instead of a swap partition during install/
[02:30] <shiester_miester> so maybe one of them restarts X11 or something
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Boris, What is the result of running that at the grub prompt?
[02:30] <Boris> Jordan_U: I said, "/boot/grub/stage1"
[02:31] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, you know how alt+sysrq+k = restart kernel, right?
[02:31] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, only when you press alt+sysrq+(character here) is anything ever done.
[02:31] <Jordan_U> Boris, It should give you something like "(hd0,2)"
[02:31] <shiester_miester> oh, really?
[02:31] <shiester_miester> what other things can you do with those keys?
[02:31] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, replace "(character here)" with a character
[02:31] <shiester_miester> obviously
[02:31] <Jordan_U> Boris, It just echos the same thing back at you?
[02:31] <Boris> Jordan_U: When running "find /boot/grub/stage1"
[02:31] <starz> shiester_miester: hey u play with nvidia drivers much?
[02:31] <Boris> ?
[02:32] <shiester_miester> what im asking is, do you know of any additional functions you can do with alt+sysrq+letter
[02:32] <Jordan_U> Boris, Yes
[02:32] <GeekMaster1> Does ANYONE here have experience with VMWare, Ubuntu and Vista Ultimate?
[02:32] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Tips%20and%20Tricks/sysrq.htm
[02:32] <starz> darn latest drivers took away my highest resolutions!
[02:32] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[02:32] <shiester_miester> ty
[02:32] <shiester_miester> starz, what
[02:32] <Jordan_U> !anyone | GeekMaster1
[02:32] <ubotu> GeekMaster1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:32] <starz> i cant get anything higher than 1600x1200 now
[02:32] <Boris> Jordan_U: Yes, without "find."
[02:32] <starz> whereas i should have been able to get my 1920x1440
[02:32] <starz> ~____~
[02:32] <shiester_miester> starz, im definitely not updating my drivers then :P
[02:32] <starz> yeah dont
[02:32] <starz> i'm going to downgrade mine ithink
[02:32] <shiester_miester> they work fine as they are, anyway
[02:33] <Jordan_U> Boris, What do you mean without find?
[02:33] <shiester_miester> whats a kernel panic? ive heard the term before but am not sure what it means
[02:33] <franz> [VPN]  how do i do i configure my vpn? In windows, i just enter the host name, and my username / password. In ubuntu, there seems to be a lot more options ( or at least with Kvpnc )
[02:33] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Basically Linux's equivalent of a windows BSOD
[02:33] <Boris> Jordan_U: Without the string "find," So yes, it echos it back. I probably messed it up or something; I've spent hours on this issue.
[02:33] <vox754> Boris, type what Jordan_U says, but after typing "grub" or in the grub prompt when you reboot the computer.
[02:33] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, what does it look like?
[02:33] <GeekMaster1> Does anyone here have experince with RDesktop at all?
[02:33] <kuma> hi, i'm having a problem with the remote:/ folder, when i try to access a server form there i get an error that only shows the address i'm trying to connect to. can anybody help me?
[02:33] <blackmac> anyone shared files from ubuntu to a mac with nfs rather than smb ?
[02:34] <Boris> vox754: Oh, ok that will help a lot. Thanks.
[02:34] <blckcts> Is this for setting a password for root or regular account? -> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-3609.html   , thanks
[02:34] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, It doesn't look like anything, if you are in X then your screen will likely just be frozen, if you are in a virtual terminal you will get an error and then the words kernel panicked
[02:35] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, ah yes, i have experienced a few of those
[02:35] <Ricket> Can someone please paste the default /etc/hosts file on a site like http://pastebin.ca for me?? I just overwrote it without copying the loopback information, like an idiot...
[02:35] <Oxxy> hello
[02:35] <Boris> Jordan_U: I get "(hd0,1)", carriage return, "(hd1,1)."
[02:35] <shiester_miester> why is it called "kernel panic" anyway?  cos its a problem with the kernel and it makes you panic? :P
[02:35] <Oxxy> can someone help me with my sound card problem?
[02:35] <shiester_miester> !ask | Oxxy
[02:35] <ubotu> Oxxy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:35] <Ghaz> how do i install an IRC client? :(
[02:35] <Oxxy> :O
[02:35] <Oxxy> ok....
[02:35] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, I doubt it, just because X freezes does not mean you had a kernel panik
[02:36] <tty01> anyone here with rpmbuild experience?
[02:36] <Boris> Ghaz: What are you using now?
[02:36] <Oxxy> i have just installed ubuntu 7,04 and cant make my sound card work
[02:36] <Ricket> Ghaz: look in your Synaptic package manager for XChat
[02:36] <Ghaz> im on my windows pc
[02:36] <shiester_miester> oh ok...well one of your symptoms was a frozen screen :P
[02:36] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, btw, print that link out, you'll need it
[02:36] <Ricket> Ghaz: or just search the package manager for IRC
[02:36] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, id love to, if i could print
[02:36] <Boris> Oxxy: No sound? Try running "alsamixer" in terminal.
[02:36] <Jordan_U> Boris, Did you use those when you specified the root?
[02:36] <shiester_miester> but i cant, so I won't
[02:36] <Boris> Ghaz: Konversation is good.
[02:36] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, why can't you?
[02:36] <tty01> anyone with rpmbuild experience? =\
[02:37] <shiester_miester> cos its ridiculously difficult to make my printer work
[02:37] <shiester_miester> and ive tried numerous things and all its ended up doing is screwing things up
[02:37] <shiester_miester> so im not going to try anymore
[02:37] <Oxxy> ok ill try boris
[02:37] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, what is your printer make/model?
[02:37] <Ghaz> Ricket: so if i load tha package manager up i can search for irc clients on the internet, or xchat is an inbuilt one?
[02:37] <Boris> Jordan_U: So "device (hd0,1) /dev/hda"?
[02:37] <shiester_miester> canon pixma ip1000
[02:37] <Boris> Oxxy: It's under Add/Remove Programs.
[02:37] <shiester_miester> ubuntu doesnt come with drivers for it, and the drivers i downloaded dont work
[02:37] <Jordan_U> Boris, At the grub prompt run "root (hd1,1)" < return > "setup (hd1)
[02:37] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, ah, ok.
[02:38] <Boris> Oxxy: You don't even need Synaptec package manager.
[02:38] <shiester_miester> i had to install some packages with alien which is supposedly dangerous because you can't easily remove them
[02:38] <Oxxy> i runed it... now im in some kind of mixer.. old school looking one xD
[02:38] <Oxxy> but its everything in the max
[02:38] <Oxxy> :S
[02:38] <Boris> Jordan_U: I think it worked!
[02:38] <shiester_miester> it detects my printer perfectly, i can add it perfectly, no problems, command line queries show the connection as working fine
[02:38] <shiester_miester> except i go to print something and nothing happens :/
[02:38] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, what? you installed them the "wrong" way. alien is fine, but convert to deb, and install, and that'll be easily removable.
[02:38] <franz> [VPN]  how do i do i configure my vpn? In windows, i just enter the host name, and my username / password. In ubuntu, there seems to be a lot more options ( or at least with Kvpnc )
[02:39] <Boris> Jordan_U: Thanks very much. I'll try rebooting.
[02:39] <Oxxy> my sound still doesnt work :S
[02:39] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, someone told me, i think it was bruenig, not to use alien
[02:39] <Boris> Oxxy: Is it a PCI sound card?
[02:39] <shiester_miester> although i used it anyway :P
[02:39] <bruenig> alien = devil
[02:39] <shiester_miester> and then the driver proceeded to rape my cpu
[02:40] <Oxxy> uhh i dont know.. its a laptop.. maybe its pci maybe its integrated with motherboard :S
[02:40] <shiester_miester> but if you think the debs might work...ill try them
[02:40] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Often when X has crashed you can still recover from it and the system as a whole is unaffected, you can for instance still ssh in, or kill X with alt+sysrq+k
[02:40] <ONLIVECDHELP> Help I screwed up my ubuntu installation, I followed the directions @ http://www.gatorlug.org/node/123 to use encfs to encrypt a new user "ionstorm"'s home directory with encfs, and now when I log on to any account I am unable to get in, it says "authentication failed" any ideas?  I have access to the drive and config files I edited etc, standing by..
[02:40] <Boris> Oxxy: Sorry, never used Linux with a laptop.
[02:40] <Oxxy> its a toshiba p105 s9337 laptop
[02:40] <Oxxy> :(
[02:40] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, work in the sense that they can be easily removable, yes.
[02:40] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[02:40] <shiester_miester> well ill give them a go
[02:40] <Boris> Oxxy: Did you google it?
[02:40] <Oxxy> yup
[02:40] <ONLIVECDHELP> I should have backed up the config's but I was too careless
[02:40] <shiester_miester> cos i would like to be able to print :P
[02:40] <Oxxy> all day long but still not working :S
[02:41] <Boris> Oxxy: The exact model of the card?
[02:41] <Ricket> Ghaz: well the package manager is sort of like a big application installer thing... there is no comparison for windows, and it is probably the best thing in linux. Just search for IRC, you will find some different programs, and then choose one and mark for installation, and then click Apply. The package manager will automatically download and install the program for you.
[02:41] <Oxxy> mmm  i dont know exactly, the whole info i could get was "Conexant High definition audio" :S:S:S
[02:42] <Oxxy> ICH7 family .. thats all the info i get from the hardware information on ubuntu 7,04
[02:43] <ijustinsane> anyone familier with the mad wifi drivers
[02:43] <Ricket> Can someone please paste the default /etc/hosts file on a site like http://pastebin.ca for me?? I just overwrote it without copying the loopback information, like an idiot...
[02:43] <psychodrain> helo, people
[02:44] <ProN00b> anyone got any idea how to get the compression ratio of a jpeg ?
[02:44] <psychodrain> Someone, please, can tell me how to configure a player to see files .rmvb
[02:44] <Oxxy> can someone help me with my sound card problem.. it doesnt work at all.. i thought i had installed all the needed drivers but no sound at all
[02:44] <kbrooks> cool, tuxracer works.
[02:44] <imbecile> whats a good program (meaning easy) for converting avi to a kvcd?
[02:44] <SirSherlock> is there a lightweight X window system other then Xorg,  out there?
[02:45] <ProN00b> SirSherlock, oO why would you need that ?
[02:45] <ProN00b> SirSherlock, if you want to be a deviant use openbsd or something
[02:45] <SirSherlock> i have an older laptop with not alot of memory
[02:45] <ONLIVECDHELP> anyone here familiar with encfs
[02:45] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, i installed the debs and reinstalled the printer with the driver i had downloaded, still doesnt work
[02:45] <Ghaz> Ricket: so ive loaded the package manager and searcher for 'IRC' and not found anything other than something called 'lirc' which i dont think is any good to me :(
[02:45] <Jordan_U> Oxxy, What is the output of "asoundconf list"
[02:45] <JK_the_CJer> hello everyone
[02:45] <jvai> i feel fluxbox is the lightest way to run a 'nix GUI "fully functional"
[02:45] <ProN00b> SirSherlock, oh, you already using xubuntu ? its not the x that is taking the memory but gnome or kde ?
[02:45] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, then remove the debs. easy ;-)
[02:46] <ajmorris_> hi JK_the_CJer
[02:46] <JK_the_CJer> anyone have experience with gps under linux?
[02:46] <ONLIVECDHELP> Help I screwed up my ubuntu installation, I followed the directions @ http://www.gatorlug.org/node/123 to use encfs to encrypt a new user "ionstorm"'s home directory with encfs, and now when I log on to any account I am unable to get in, it says "authentication failed" any ideas?  I have access to the drive and config files I edited etc, forgot to backup config files
[02:46] <SirSherlock> yea just xorg, no window manager installed
[02:46] <At0mic_PC> Are there any language programs for linux that would let you learn a new language?
[02:46] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: a little, what do you need?
[02:46] <Oxxy> wow.. i dont know.. ill figure it out.. where i find that file?
[02:46] <At0mic_PC> I'm interested in learning spanish.
[02:46] <vox754> shiester_miester, I heard HP work.
[02:46] <Jordan_U> At0mic_PC, Many, look in Add/Remove
[02:46] <At0mic_PC> Jordan_U: Ok thanks.
[02:46] <TaJMoX> At0mic_PC: Rosetta Stone runs in wine
[02:46] <Ricket> Ghaz: Are you using the Synaptic Package Manager? Did you search Description and name or only name? I get 249 packages containing "IRC"
[02:46] <ProN00b> SirSherlock, what ? you don't have a window manager ?
[02:46] <At0mic_PC> Thanks
[02:47] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: i just bought an Earthmate LT-20 after reading about how compatible it is, i then find out that Feisty doesnt like it
[02:47] <ProN00b> SirSherlock, maybe you should look at killing all unneccessary services first
[02:47] <kbrooks> ok, everyone. i want to find a good use for my school laptop running ubuntu right now.
[02:47] <SirSherlock> yea, startx just launches a xterm
[02:47] <kbrooks> any ideas?
[02:47] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: does it pick it up at all?
[02:47] <Ricket> Ghaz: but if you don't really care about choosing your own, I am currently using one called XChat - try searching for that and installing it
[02:47] <ijustinsane> anyone with madwifi experience msg me thanks
[02:47] <TaJMoX> kbrooks: porn?
[02:47] <Ghaz> Ricket: Yeah i told it to search names and descriptions
[02:47] <SirSherlock> ProN00b yea, im gonna look into performance tweaks like that
[02:47] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: it recognizes it and loads the correct drivers, but when i try cat //dev//ttyUSB0 it just hangs
[02:48] <kbrooks> TaJMoX, porn is bad.
[02:48] <SirSherlock> how much diff, is freebsd from ubuntu?
[02:48] <vox754> !info xserver-xorg-core
[02:48] <ubotu> xserver-xorg-core: X.Org X server -- core server. In component main, is optional. Version 2:1.2.0-3ubuntu8 (feisty), package size 3541 kB, installed size 10236 kB
[02:48] <Ghaz> Ricket: how do i install it once ive downloaded it?
[02:48] <JK_the_CJer> i found a fix but it involves compiling the module with a slight change
[02:48] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, i think I'll print this the old fashioned way...with a pen and paper :P
[02:48] <kbrooks> TaJMoX, and i don't want my school (or me) sued for possession of porn.
[02:48] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, good :-)
[02:48] <Ricket> Ghaz: click the checkbox thing next to the program and click Mark for Installation. Then click the apply button on the toolbar of Synaptic
[02:48] <psychodrain>  Someone, please, can tell me how to configure a player to see files .rmvb
[02:48] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: have you done the compilation ffor the fix you found?
[02:49] <Ricket> Ghaz: it will automatically download and install it. As soon as it's finished, you are all set - no restart necessary. Just look in your Applications > Internet and it should be there.
[02:49] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: the source that i found compiles with errors without any changes
[02:49] <Ghaz> Ricket: Thank You, i will go and have a play
[02:49] <SirSherlock> anyone, whats the differnce between xfree86 and xorg
[02:49] <TaJMoX> SirSherlock: BSD and Linux are very different.   Main difference to you would be Linux is more like a Desktop OS and BSD is more for geek work
[02:49] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: what errors?
[02:49] <SirSherlock> tajmox, ic thx
[02:50] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: i can post up an example, but i doubt itd help
[02:50] <Ricket> Can someone please paste the default /etc/hosts file on a site like http://pastebin.ca for me?? Private message me if you are willing to help but don't know how to do this, I really need that file, I can't restart my computer without fixing this... :(
[02:50] <vox754> SirSherlock, that is actually off topic, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic for a more relaxed discussion.
[02:50] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: not very helpful error outputs then?
[02:50] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: /home/jkthecjer/Desktop/cypress_m8.c:1074: error: incompatible types in assignment
[02:51] <SirSherlock> vox754: what is this channel for
[02:51] <SirSherlock> or topic
[02:51] <SirSherlock> ubuntu help?
[02:51] <shiester_miester> SirSherlock, yes
[02:51] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: 1074: priv->tmp_termios = *(tty->termios);
[02:51] <Ubuntu-maniac> Hello, I'm running on Ubuntu Live CD and i need to make some alterations and saving on my NTFS hard disk, is there any way for me to move/rename my files/folders?
[02:51] <Ricket> SirSherlock: vox754 has quit
[02:52] <shiester_miester> this is primarily a support channel, SirSherlock
[02:52] <SirSherlock> ok
[02:52] <Jordan_U> Ricket, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28901/
[02:52] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: i mean i can code in C, but i look at that and see a blur :-)
[02:52] <Ricket> Jordan_U: thanks a lot!
[02:52] <ajmorris_> JK_the_CJer: sorry, i dont know enough about gps to help :( have you tried posting on the ubuntuforums.org.... unless someone else here can help, maybe try asking the question again :)
[02:53] <kbrooks> can anyone here recommend a game like, but better than, tuxracer?
[02:53] <Ubuntu-maniac> Hello, I'm running on Ubuntu Live CD and i need to make some alterations and saving on my NTFS hard disk, is there any way for me to move/rename my files/folders?
[02:53] <teetanian> hi
[02:53] <Ghaz> Ricket: Its downloading xchat now :D
[02:53] <Ghaz> thank you!
[02:53] <JK_the_CJer> ajmorris: thanks anyway
[02:53] <tlevine_> I'm pretty sure NTFS works essentially perfectly now.
[02:53] <Jordan_U> Ricket, np
[02:53] <tlevine_> Search around for the package
[02:53] <teetanian> please help, I am feisty on a laptop and when the screen goes out I can't go back to anything. The screen remains lit but dark!!
[02:54] <teetanian> :'-( please help
[02:54] <Ubuntu-maniac> tlevine_ : im running on the Live CD, it doesnt let me change the repository so i can install ntfs-3g
[02:54] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Same way you would on any other file system, it should mount RW by default from the LiveCD ( 7.04 )
[02:54] <Truman_> teetanian: You wouldn't happen to have a macbok, wouldja
[02:54] <tlevine_> Teentanian, what model?
[02:54] <tlevine_> yeah
[02:54] <tlevine_> Just search google for it
[02:54] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U : no Write access.
[02:54] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Are you running Feisty?
[02:54] <chohmann> Ubunut-maniac: which version?
[02:54] <JK_the_CJer> anyone know a good way to copy this without the line numbers: http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/lxr/source/drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.c
[02:54] <teetanian> Truman_: is a Dell inspiron with a intel Extreme 850
[02:55] <Ubuntu-maniac> chohmann : Fiesty
[02:55] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U : yes
[02:55] <Truman_> teetanian: Hmm, I dunno then.. I know there was a bug for macbooks that you had to fix -- does google turn up anything?
[02:55] <slocate> hi, I'm new to ubuntu - if I can't find a package I want in synaptic, am I relegated to the command line?
[02:55] <Edgan> JK_the_CJer: cut and paste it into something like nedit or gvim, and then do a column cut and paste
[02:55] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, How did you mount it, if you mounted it with Nautilus it should be RW
[02:56] <slocate> I'd like to install libpam-keyring so I don't have to type my keyring password every time I login (for network manager).
[02:56] <JK_the_CJer> Edgan: thanks never knew about column cut
[02:56] <Edgan> JK_the_CJer: It is more column highlight, and then normal cut and paste
[02:56] <teetanian> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-i810/+bug/117892
[02:56] <Ubuntu-maniac> (Jordan_U): nautilus? i have no idea. i just double clicked my ntfs drive.
[02:56] <teetanian> may be?
[02:56] <Oxxy> can someone please help me making my sound card work on my newly installed ubuntu 7,04 ??
[02:56] <teetanian> oh I hate this, everything is AWSOME and it hangs when idle
[02:56] <Jordan_U> slocate, That is available in the Universe repository
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Oxxy, What is the output of "asoundconf list"
[02:57] <Truman_> Teetanian:  It probably just has a problem coming back from standby:  that was the macbook one
[02:57] <Nekiruhs> My Nautilus stopped working after the install of TimeVault. Other windows show up, but not Nautilus or my desktop
[02:57] <Oxxy> where do i find that file?
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Was windows shut down incorrectly by any chance, or the drive removed without ejecting?
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Oxxy, It is a command, run it from a terminal
[02:57] <slocate> Jordan_U: in feisty?
[02:58] <Nekiruhs> Me, yes
[02:58] <Oxxy> yup
[02:58] <Oxxy> i found one
[02:58] <Oxxy> in.. /usr/bin/
[02:58] <Truman_> Does anyone know if "sudo ln -bs /bin/true /usr/sbin/laptop-detect" might work for other laptops apart from macbooks?  To fix hang on coming back from suspend?
[02:58] <Jordan_U> slocate, yup
[02:58] <slocate> Jordan_U: hmm, lemme see :)
[02:59] <Ghaz> hi
[02:59] <Oxxy> i dont find the word "output" in that file :S
[02:59] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U : i did try fixing the ntfs masterboot record, but it doesnt seem to want to run XP anymore. So i'm trying to fix it by backing up all my files first
[02:59] <Oxxy> jordan_U i dont find it :S
[02:59] <slocate> Jordan_U: I *thought* it was enabled - in preferences I have "Community-maintained Open Source software (Universe)" enabled
[02:59] <slocate> Jordan_U: I guess there's more I need to do?
[03:00] <Jordan_U> slocate, Have you updated your package list since enabling it?
[03:00] <Truman_> teetanian: That command is what did it for the macbook; I guess you could try it.. though it might break something , too :\
[03:00] <TTT_Travis> how do I change my DNS server - via terminal?
[03:00] <slocate> Jordan_U: It was updated when I installed, but I don't think I have, no.
[03:01] <Jordan_U> slocate, What happens when you run: sudo apt-get install libpam-keyring
[03:01] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: by fixing the mbr, do you mean from the system restore utility on the XP CD?
[03:01] <slocate> Jordan_U: I'd imagine it would work, let's see
[03:01] <slocate> Jordan_U: password prompt and installed :)
[03:02] <slocate> Jordan_U: Is it strange that it didn't show up in synaptic, though?
[03:02] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, If the partition is marked unclean for any reason then it won't mount RW
[03:02] <slocate> (I'm reading ubuntu documentation atm to figure out the package management)
[03:02] <Jordan_U> slocate, Yes, very, there is no reason it shouldn't have
[03:02] <bcartolo> Hi
[03:02] <shiester_miester> when a screensaver runs, for some reason it runs a separate one in each monitor.  how can i make it run one screensaver spanned across both monitors?
[03:02] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, it mounted properly i think, because i can READ the files, but not WRITE
[03:02] <slocate> Jordan_U: hmm
[03:02] <Jordan_U> !hi | bcartolo
[03:02] <ubotu> bcartolo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:02] <slocate> Jordan_U: possibly why I couldn't find clearlooks, either
[03:02] <bcartolo> I wonder If someone could point me in the right direction
[03:03] <slocate> Jordan_U: the only thing that isn't checked in the 'Downloadable from the Internet' section is source code
[03:03] <TaJMoX> bcartolo: That way ------>
[03:03] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, It will mount fine if it is marked unclean, it will just be mounted read only
[03:03] <bcartolo> lol
[03:03] <Ubuntu-maniac> crap....
[03:03] <bcartolo> I have a dream
[03:03] <Ubuntu-maniac> so is there any solutions to this?
[03:03] <Jordan_U> slocate, That shouldn't matter
[03:03] <bcartolo> I want to compile php5
[03:04] <bcartolo> And It seems pretty difficult
[03:04] <TaJMoX> bcartolo: why not install the deb?
[03:04] <RedWolfL1> having issues burning CDs with Ubuntu Feisty
[03:04] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: can you elaborate on what you mean by fixing the mbr?
[03:04] <bcartolo> Because I want to create an extension
[03:04] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Run chkdisk from windows ( recommended ) or run ntfsfix from Ubuntu
[03:04] <slocate> Jordan_U: yeah, weird... This is on a stock installation, perhaps something changed in Feisty?
[03:04] <bcartolo> and for that I need two directives
[03:05] <Jordan_U> slocate, Nope, apt aptitude and synaptic all use the same list of packages
[03:05] <bcartolo> that are not configured in the binary
[03:05] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, windows wont boot up, system files are all corrupted
[03:06] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U,and windows installation disk threatens to eliminate all my documents if not backed up.
[03:06] <slocate> Jordan_U: weird, I'll have to come back and figure this out later though, thanks for the help!
[03:06] <bcartolo> I think apt can handle source packages
[03:06] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: if you can read the volume, I would attach a secondary drive and copy off as much a possible. then troubleshoot the problem
[03:06] <bcartolo> am I right?
[03:06] <Ubuntu-maniac> chohmann, i ran the console recovery with the XP cd and did fixmbr
[03:06] <jmll> Does anyone know how to issue a command before or after suspend/hibernate?
[03:06] <jvai> fiesty sounds unstable...
[03:06] <jvai> but.. if dell went with it..
[03:06] <Ubuntu-maniac> jvai, everything sounds unstable.
[03:07] <RedWolfL1> it is unstable.. I can't burn CDs
[03:07] <jvai> lol
[03:07] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, I would ask in ##windows and as a last resort try ntfsfix from Ubuntu
[03:07] <shiester_miester> there is an irc channel for windows? :O
[03:07] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, just ntfsfix in terminal?
[03:07] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, ##windows
[03:07] <bcartolo> I think I need to put a server in the sources file
[03:08] <trulinG> is it me or is IRC lagging on connect
[03:08] <shiester_miester> heh, strangely enough, the windows channel is almost dead
[03:08] <trulinG> ?
[03:08] <shiester_miester> well ok not dead
[03:08] <r00tintheb0x> hi all
[03:08] <trulinG> good, vista sucks
[03:08] <shiester_miester> but not that many people in there
[03:08] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, I believe it's: sudo ntfsfix /dev/<whatever>
[03:08] <jmll> does anyone know how to have a command automatically issued before or after suspend/hibernate?
[03:08] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: you might also want to give Ultimate Boot CD a try
[03:08] <trulinG> i make more $$ taking vista off custys pc's and putting xp back on"
[03:08] <jvai> <--- stuk on dapper... till the wheels fall off
[03:08] <Oxxy>  can someone please help me.. i cant make my sound card work on my toshiba satellite p105 laptop...
[03:08] <Oxxy> with ubuntu 7,04
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Oxxy: what type of sound device?
[03:09] <kbrook1> hi.
[03:09] <stetran> lo
[03:09] <Jordan_U> !hi | kbrook1
[03:09] <ubotu> kbrook1: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:09] <jvai> maybe so
[03:09] <Briss> hi can someone help me i just installed ubuntu but i cant connect to the internet :S
[03:09] <trulinG> contin is eveil oxycontin
[03:09] <Jordan_U> Briss, Wired wireless or both?
[03:09] <kbrook1> !kvm
[03:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kvm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:09] <Briss> wired
[03:09] <kbrook1> !vm
[03:09] <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
[03:10] <kbrook1> !QEmu
[03:10] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Oxxy: do you knoww hat your sound device is?
[03:10] <Jordan_U> Briss, try: sudo ifconfig eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0
[03:10] <Truman_> Jordan_U: What's && do?
[03:11] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, am i able to share out from the LIVECD to my Desktop(Which is what i'm using now) so i can COPY from the Notebook(With the livecd)
[03:11] <shiester_miester> this is a weird question, but is there a way to force a kernel panic?
[03:11] <NigelS> Truman_: it concatenates two seperate commands into one line
[03:11] <BlackBsd> where can i find a kernel conf file for the dell ubuntu laptops?
[03:11] <sdouble> anyone know if it's possible to run my other os in a dual boot system simultaneously?
[03:12] <BlackBsd> i have looked on dell.com, but have not found any yet
[03:12] <Truman_> NigelS: I gotcha; thanks
[03:12] <Briss> jordan_u: no dhcp
[03:12] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Yes, just right click on the file and choose share
[03:12] <MajorPayne> NigelS: What's the difference between ; and &&?
[03:12] <BlackBsd> also does anyone know if the blue tooth device on this laptop is working,   the e1505
[03:12] <shiester_miester> sdouble, its possible by i dont think that particular function is implemented
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> BlackBsd: dual boot simutaneously?... i don't think so, closest you'll get is running Windows w/ vmware or qemu
[03:12] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, on my XP i cant seem to find the Ubuntu network.
[03:12] <NigelS> sdouble: you can use a virtual machine to run an OS instance within another OS but dual boot by definition is an either or event
[03:12] <meme_> Hello, do i have to install KDE to install K3b?
[03:12] <Jordan_U> MajorPayne, && will only execute the second command if the first completed successfully
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> meme_: no
[03:13] <jmll> MajorPayne, Truman_: if you do "stuff && morestuff", then your computer will run "stuff" first, and if it is successful, it will run "morestuff"
[03:13] <james_> distro upgrade from breezy help
[03:13] <sdouble> by my definition of "dual boot," I mean the other operating system I currently have installed and can choose from GRUB
[03:13] <MajorPayne> Jordan_U: I figured it was something like that.
[03:13] <meme_> Thanks, so amarock will work to?
[03:13] <jvai> Jordan_U,  does that trik of "right clik -share files" work in dapper?
[03:13] <Truman_> jmll: Gotcha, thanks
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> meme_: just sudo apt-get install k3b, and apt-get will handle installing the kde libraries(not the actual desktop)\
[03:13] <shiester_miester> sdouble, oh you dont mean run both OSes at the same time
[03:13] <sdouble> not just a vrtual, but the actual
[03:13] <shiester_miester> do you ?
[03:13] <Jordan_U> jvai, I don't know, try it :)
[03:13] <ant-> !dualboot > sdouble
[03:13] <meme_> Kool, thank you
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> meme_: yup, i use amarok to.\
[03:13] <imbecile> whats a good program (meaning easy) for converting avi to a kvcd? or at least avi to mpeg so i can use k3b to make vcd
[03:14] <shiester_miester> ant-, hes not talking about being able to boot into one or the other, he wants to boot BOTH
[03:14] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Even after sharing a folder with samba?
[03:14] <jvai> i dont see it in the menu, i may have to enable it thru firestarter
[03:14] <shiester_miester> i think :/
[03:14] <james_> apt-get dist-upgrade not working
[03:14] <jmll> does anyone know how to issue a command before or after my computer suspends/hibernates?
[03:14] <sdouble> Yes, in a window, just like a virtual machine.  But I haven't seen this
[03:14] <shiester_miester> sdouble, yes its possible to run both simultaneously, but ive never heard of that functionality being implemented
[03:14] <Jordan_U> james_, What are you trying to do?
[03:14] <Briss> jordan_u i didnt have the wire connected when i installed and cant seem to run it when running the livecd
[03:14] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, i tried it yesterday it didnt work. I'm trying again now, i'm just waiting for samba to finish installing the Windows network system or something
[03:15] <james_> upgrade- breezy no longer supported
[03:15] <shiester_miester> sdouble, you would need some kind of supervisory program to control resource allocation, otherwise it would be impossible.  they wouldnt be able to coexist by themselves
[03:15] <kbrooks> sdouble, maybe that is possible, with virtualization and some action from you the end user
[03:15] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, he said "not" virtual OSes
[03:15] <shiester_miester> the ACTUAL operating systems
[03:15] <Truman_> Briss: Did you say that there was no DHCP?  Are you connected to a router?
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> Oxxy: are you gonna answer me?
[03:15] <owas> channel for ubuntu in brasil?
[03:15] <shiester_miester> it would be very difficult, but it would kick ass if it worked
[03:16] <shiester_miester> !br | owas
[03:16] <ubotu> owas: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[03:16] <NigelS> MajorPayne: you can check it out in the man page but both are control characters && retains its traditional function as logical AND within bash but is also used to indicate a list ";" acts as an optional terminating character and is a bit like a bit of punctuation
[03:16] <BrissBRB> truman yes no dhcp and i am connected to the router, i will be back in 15mins if you think of anything just pm it to me and ill try it as soon as i get back
[03:16] <sdouble> yeah, virtual is a cakewalk.  It's just I have winxp installed as well and would like to run that as a virtual os.  It would be nice, but I haven't seen anything making it possible.  =/
[03:16] <Ubuntu-maniac> !cn | Ubuntu-maniac
[03:16] <Ubuntu-maniac> ._.
[03:16] <lipocsi> hey guys
[03:16] <shiester_miester> sdouble, its definitely possible
[03:17] <jvai> oooo, border's books is about to close... the music stoped in here :(
[03:17] <kbrooks> sdouble: qemu tips can help.
[03:17] <shiester_miester> just, nobody has ever implemented it
[03:17] <lipocsi> wat do u guys use to mount isos for cedega install?
[03:17] <hende07> hey does anyone know a program that will convert from avi to dvd format during burn
[03:17] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, it has ben "implemented" as a tip.
[03:17] <NigelS> lipocsi: you can use the loop back device
[03:17] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Nobody  has implemented what?
[03:17] <shiester_miester> kbrook1, really?
[03:17] <shiester_miester> *kbrooks
[03:17] <NigelS> lipocsi: from the command line you can use the -o loop option and pass the fs type as -t iso9660
[03:17] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, the advice is over at the unofficial qemu faq
[03:17] <MajorPayne> NigelS: Yea.  Its syntax is much like C I guess.
[03:17] <Ubuntu-maniac> if virtual machine in ubuntu can run xp, wont USB DSL users just do that as an alternative rather than extract the firmware?
[03:17] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[03:17] <lipocsi> khold on
[03:17] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, kbrook1 == kbrooks
[03:18] <hende07> ???
[03:18] <sdouble> looking for some stuff on it now kbrooks
[03:18] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, want me to find it for you?
[03:18] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, we were talking about running the actual installation of windows within linux rather than a virtual Os
[03:18] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, yeah that would be interesting
[03:18] <Qarl> anyway I can use "find" to find a file that exists in a subdirectory when I'm not sure of the depth?
[03:18] <shiester_miester> brb
[03:19] <lipocsi> nigels wats the command for the loop back device and how do u set it?
[03:19] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, http://www.kidsquid.com/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#head-bcc0d7a7641ec611dbe969aa9b8d433e2fc0b903
[03:19] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, You have your terminology wrong then because that is by the definition of the word virtual OS not possible, do you mean running from the partition of a normally installed windows?
[03:20] <james_> would like to at least upgrade to dapper from breezy, however sudo apt-get dist-upgrade give me nothing
[03:20] <NigelS> lipocsi: so for example to mount foo.iso you can mount -t iso9660 ./foo.iso <mount point> -o loop
[03:20] <jmll> does anyone know how to have a command automatically issued before or after suspend/hibernate?
[03:20] <sirus> Hey is there a package that will let me monitor the temp and everything of my cpu
[03:20] <lipocsi> k
[03:20] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, but it does involve virtualization. however, that is the "best" way for now
[03:20] <hey> I have a question, i was trying to install some app and it said it needed gtk+. so i installed glib (and gettext). now when i try to do ./configure for pango it says it needs one backend of type Freetype, X11, ATSUI, Win32
[03:20] <Qarl> sirus: check out lm-sensors
[03:20] <NigelS> james_: you need to alter your sources to reflect dapper not breezy
[03:20] <hey> so i dled Freetype
[03:20] <ant-> sirus: acpi -Vf
[03:20] <hey> and did that
[03:20] <lipocsi> jmll cedega would autmatically detects it ?
[03:20] <hey> yet i still get the same error
[03:20] <Jordan_U> jmll, I may be wrong but I believe you would add it to  /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux
[03:21] <lipocsi> how wwould it distinguish from the cdroom and the mounted iso?
[03:21] <sirus> Qarl ant- are they gui's?
[03:21] <ant-> sirus: nope
[03:21] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, i thought if you could run XP in a virtual OS then most USB dsl owners should just get a Virtual OS, install XP in it, install the modem driver, get online?
[03:21] <Qarl> sirus: what's that? ;p
[03:21] <NigelS> lipocsi: when you mount something in a UNIX style directory tree it becomes part of the tree - that's its beauty really - so it can be any folder on your system - the fs doesn't care about the physical drives per se
[03:21] <sirus> root@section8:/home/tp# acpi -Vf Thermal 1: ok, 104.0 degrees F
[03:22] <sirus> 104
[03:22] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, erm..
[03:22] <sirus> thats like a fever
[03:22] <drm> hi
[03:22] <sirus> should it be that hot?
[03:22] <slavik> 104F is fine
[03:22] <sirus> Qarl: graphic user interface
[03:22] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, _you_ don't understand what virtualization is.
[03:22] <lipocsi> l i think im just gonna look for a tutorial online thanks for letting me know guys i can go back to google now
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, That may well be what most of them do, I would personally buy a new modem
[03:22] <james_> nigel - give me a hint rather new to this
[03:22] <lipocsi> thanks alot
[03:22] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, i CAN get into the ubuntu network, but it's asking for a user and password.
[03:22] <slavik> 104F is like 40C which is perfectly normal
[03:22] <sdouble> Qarl: Just doing find /dir/ -name "filehere"   it will look in the dir and subdirs
[03:22] <Qarl> sirus: I know.  I was joking.  Mine is at 33C
[03:22] <ant-> sirus: i use conky but there are others
[03:22] <Chris3D> hi
[03:22] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: did you run smbpasswd
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, I think it would be "ubuntu" for both
[03:22] <sirus> hrmm
[03:22] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, let's start with YOUR computer. inside the case, you see a lot of hardware.
[03:23] <NigelS> james_: you can do it through the menu or you can edit /etc/apt/sources.list (with sudo) and change all references to breezy to dapper
[03:23] <ant-> sirus: gKrelm, gdesklets
[03:23] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, if that being the case, would they be able to ICS to other physical computers?
[03:23] <nandovieira> hi... I received a update today (update-manager) that broke the updater... how can I reinstall it?
[03:23] <NigelS> james_: then you apt-get update and after that you can apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:23] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, this hardware is necessary to run the software.
[03:23] <sirus> ant-: what is better?
[03:23] <ant-> sirus: i use conky
[03:23] <sirus> ant-: and that has a gui?
[03:23] <Chris3D> could someone help me out?  I was wondering why all of a sudden when I boot into Ubuntu, my graphics card fan spins up....for no reason
[03:24] <Qarl> sdouble: thanks, but say I need to start at / and match files named foo that are in the bar directory, so it would match: /some/really/long/path/bar/foo
[03:24] <Jordan_U> nandovieira, Broke in what way?
[03:24] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, same goes for virtual machines, except that the hardware is implemented in software (which runs other software).
[03:24] <slavik> Chris3D: did you upgrade your driver?
[03:24] <james_> ok i'll give it a shot - love the challenge thx
[03:24] <Chris3D> yea, I installed the fglrx driver
[03:24] <sdouble> yeah, I thought that was what you wanted.  I'll reread your question.
[03:24] <Chris3D> it's an ati card...
[03:24] <NigelS> Ubuntu-maniac: it's also worth pointing out that running an entire OS in a virtual machine just to get your modem working is a little excessive - I'd rather 100% of my hardware was doing what I want it to do and not working extra hard to get around the problems created by a monopoly.  A better course of action is usually to buy compatible hardware
[03:24] <slavik> Chris3D: the driver prolly tells it to
[03:24] <Chris3D> ah
[03:24] <JK_the_CJer> ok, i need to modify a single line of code in the source for a driver (cypress_m8), build it, and load it.  is there an easy way to do this or maybe a howto?
[03:24] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, as such, it is all very, or sould be anyway, seamless to the OS that runs. but...
[03:24] <Ubuntu-maniac> NigelS, good point.
[03:24] <Chris3D> alright, I don't really need it, so I'll try disabling it
[03:25] <kbrooks> Ubuntu-maniac, the hardware emulated is very different :-)
[03:25] <NigelS> JK_the_CJer: well it's not too difficult - are you familiar with code?
[03:25] <Qarl> sdouble: $ find / -name "foo" -type f | grep "/bar/foo$", will do it, but I need to delete these files afterwards and I'm not sure how efficient that is
[03:25] <ant-> sirus: yes
[03:25] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, chohmann, Ubuntu/Ubuntu doesnt work, smbpasswd said 127.0.0.1 unable to connect or something(i'm using the LIVE CD)
[03:25] <JK_the_CJer> NigelS: yeah i can code in C, and just need to comment out a line
[03:25] <kbrook1> ping
[03:25] <Truman_> ant-: How do you get conky to display somewhere else besides the bottom corner of the screen?
[03:25] <drthunder> how can I automate backups to an external drive?
[03:26] <sdouble> ah, I see what you mean.  Only in the directory "bar" but wherever that directory is
[03:26] <Qarl> sdouble: exactly
[03:26] <slavik> drthunder: by creating a cron job :)
[03:26] <slavik> !cron | drthunder
[03:26] <ubotu> drthunder: 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
[03:26] <Truman_> ant-: Err, nevermind; I think I've got it
[03:26] <sdouble> I thought you were just looking for a file, not that it was restricted to a certain firectory.
[03:26] <NigelS> JK_the_CJer: ah ok, then it's easy. the scripts should be with the driver to compile it etc etc, you load a module with insmod or modprobe
[03:26] <drm> rara~~~~~~~~
[03:26] <nandovieira> Jordan_U: i tried to install scribes editor and received some error... now aptitude <anything> shows this:
[03:26] <Qarl> sdouble: yeah, sorry, wasn't clear.
[03:26] <sdouble> Personally, I would do it exactly as you said.
[03:26] <killeroy> Hello
[03:26] <drm> hello
[03:26] <nandovieira> Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used. E: I wasn't able to locate file for the scribes package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. E: Couldn't lock list directory..are you root?
[03:26] <sirus> When I activate my screen-save after a few mins the pc locks up
[03:26] <Jordan_U> !paste | nandovieira

[03:26] <killeroy> anyone have any experience with the Canon SD850
[03:26] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, thanks for that link
[03:27] <sirus> with out it its fine
[03:27] <Qarl> sdouble: then just use xargs to delete them?
[03:27] <killeroy> and Feisty
[03:27] <sirus> why is this?
[03:27] <JK_the_CJer> NigelS: the driver came standard with ubuntu, where would the source be located? or do i have to apt-get something?
[03:27] <slavik> sirus: is it a 3dscreensaver?
[03:27] <drthunder> thanks
[03:27] <drm> I'm not
[03:27] <Qarl> sdouble: the reason I care about efficiency is that I'm automating it.
[03:27] <drm> I'm using HP
[03:27] <Truman_> How do you tell what processes are using what % of the cpu?
[03:28] <sdouble> Yeah.  I would do it like that.  I'm unsure of a more efficient method.
[03:28] <slavik> Truman_: open the system monitor and then click on cpu tab for it to sort in decending order :)
[03:28] <Qarl> sdouble: k, thanks
[03:28] <slavik> or run top (hint: q quits)
[03:28] <Truman_> slavik: I love it when it's an easy answer : )
[03:28] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, ubuntu@ubuntu doesnt work. it just keeps prompting me again and again for the password.
[03:28] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: can you go the other way? Copy your files from the readable ntfs mount to your desktop pc?
[03:28] <kbrook1> Truman_: use top -p `pgrep part_of_process_name` f or CLI.
[03:28] <sdouble> But I'm no master.  I wouldn't leave it at my answer.  =]

[03:28] <ant-> Truman_: did you get it?
[03:28] <nixlover> hey i have a question
[03:28] <Qarl> sdouble: I'll keep looking around, but at least it works.
[03:28] <slavik> nixlover: so do I
[03:29] <NigelS> JK_the_CJer: if it's part of the kernel you can grab the source code for that from the repos and edit the necessary section
[03:29] <sirus> slavik: yes
[03:29] <nixlover> i have a .rar file and i have arc installed but.. when i try to open it , i get the message
[03:29] <Truman_> ant-: Yeah, I used -o to give it its own window : )
[03:29] <Chris3D> uninstalling the driver seems to have fixed the problem, but now I'm back to a 1024*768 res
[03:29] <nandovieira> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28908/
[03:29] <slavik> sirus: are you running beryl/compiz? (and is the driver fglrx?)
[03:29] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, I don't normally use samba ( all my boxen are *nix ), someone suggested smbpasswd earlier
[03:29] <sdouble> nixlover: sudo apt-get install unrar
[03:29] <Truman_> System Monitor tells me that only 4% of my cpu is being used, but conky says it's running closer to 50 :\
[03:29] <nixlover> The utility unrar is not in your PATH.
[03:29] <ant-> Truman_: in the ~/.conkyrc file edit the #Text Alignment section to the corner you want it
[03:29] <slavik> Truman_: conky is wrong
[03:29] <nixlover> thats what i see
[03:29] <JK_the_CJer> NigelS: ill try thanks
[03:30] <zzuh> nixternal, type sudo apt-get install rar then try again
[03:30] <Truman_> slavik: Oh no!
[03:30] <sirus> slavik: not anymore yes the fglrx driver is the only driver that will work and not lock up my box
[03:30] <sdouble> yeah, as I said and you should be fine
[03:30] <slavik> Truman_: or you are not doing something right with system-monitor :)
[03:30] <SirTane> hey guys, you may remember me from earlier
[03:30] <Chris3D> no, I'm not running beryl or compiz...
[03:30] <SirTane> well, i'm talking to you now on gaim using linux for the first time
[03:30] <nixlover> what should i do?i  have arc
[03:30] <slavik> sirus: that could be the problem ...
[03:30] <Chris3D> I have compiz fusion installed but neither are running
[03:31] <sirus> slavik: the ati driver crashes should i switch to vesa?
[03:31] <sdouble>  /cheer SirTane
[03:31] <slavik> SirTane: welcome to the light side ... please read the wiki pages and use google before giving up
[03:31] <kismet> nixlover, type sudo apt-get install rar or install using synaptic
[03:31] <Ghaz> if i add another harddisk to my system how would i partition it so it can be used for file storage
[03:31] <Truman_> Wow, for some reason it seems to be using an entire processor
[03:31] <slavik> sirus: switch to a blank screensaver :)
[03:31] <sdouble> SirTane: first time on linux?
[03:31] <nixlover> whats the programs name that i need to install so i can look for it
[03:31] <SirTane> yep, mac user being forced to use a winbox
[03:31] <Jordan_U> Ghaz, Gparted
[03:31] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, smbpasswd doesnt work, it just gives an error on password change
[03:31] <chohmann> Ubuntu-maniac: can you see your desktop from the LiveCD running on your laptop?
[03:31] <kismet> !gparted | Ghaz
[03:31] <ubotu> Ghaz: 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
[03:31] <slavik> SirTane: if you want to just hang out and chat, then /join #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[03:32] <ant-> sirus: this is what conky looks like http://img39.picoodle.com/img/img39/8/7/6/f_Screenshotm_9a83945.png
[03:32] <SirTane> well, i'll keep that in mind, thanks
[03:32] <sdouble> ah, you'll find your first couple weeks are spent on google.  =P
[03:32] <SirTane> but i did come here with a question.
[03:32] <Ghaz> thanks guys
[03:32] <SirTane> how can i tell if my graphics card is configured correctly?
[03:32] <slavik> wow, now THAT is minimalist
[03:32] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Can you share a folder from windows instead and copy the files to it from Ubuntu?
[03:32] <slavik> SirTane: what card is it?
[03:32] <AlgorthmicContro> Whoa...this is a huge IRC channel.
[03:32] <sdouble> SirTane: glxinfo
[03:32] <kismet> SirTane, try playing a video file, best solution.
[03:32] <chohmann> Jordan_U: is there an echo in here? :)
[03:32] <SirTane> glxinfo?  where do i type that?
[03:33] <sdouble> and hope it detects it properly
[03:33] <sdouble> terminal
[03:33] <Jordan_U> chohmann, ?
[03:33] <NigelS> SirTane: well, do you have any identifiable problems? I mean what makes you think it's not running properly?
[03:33] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, i'll try, but i dont see how it could work since i cant WRITE my ntfs files.
[03:33] <Josesordo> hello, somebody know how to install bluetooh in feisty?
[03:33] <SirTane> well, there's a game that says it has a linux version
[03:33] <nixlover> kismet: whats the name of the program i need
[03:33] <SirTane> but nothing on it works, not even the load screen
[03:33] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, I don't think you understand...
[03:33] <sdouble> SirTane: what game?
[03:33] <sirus> ant-: nice
[03:33] <SirTane> tibia
[03:33] <stetran> anyone help me with a kernel panic? :x
[03:34] <trigxnor> i can visit websites a bit slowly, but fine, however when i try to download something, the transfer stops frequently and when it does go, it is very slow, any advice?
[03:34] <lipocsi> anyone know how to mount a .bin file with a cue file?
[03:34] <kismet> nixlover "rar" goto System -> Administration -> Synaptic Manager, click on search and type rar, then search from the list below, install and you should be good to go.
[03:34] <ant-> sirus: you can configure everything about it in a text file, but it takes some time to do.
[03:34] <chohmann> Jordan_U: the messages are coming fast and furious. I asked Ubuntu-maniac the same thing. He must have misssed it.
[03:34] <NigelS> SirTane: for 3D goodness you will need extra config work because the drivers are proprietary but it's been made easy for people now-a-days - are you using ati/nvidia?
[03:34] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, On this windows machine that is working share a folder, connect to that folder from Ubuntu, then copy the files over that way
[03:34] <cs5> Can anyone help me instal Ubuntu Fiesty in place of my Kubuntu on a dual boot system running winxp?
[03:34] <sirus> ah damn
[03:34] <SirTane> i believe this computer has an nvidia um... 5500?
[03:34] <SirTane> i'm not sure to be honest
[03:34] <kismet> !acetoneiso
[03:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acetoneiso - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:34] <Pelo> !iso | lipocsi  should be the same
[03:34] <ubotu> lipocsi  should be the same: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[03:34] <lipocsi> the mount command doesnt support bin files i think
[03:35] <AlgorthmicContro> uboto what about windows!
[03:35] <kismet> !acetoneiso2
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acetoneiso2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:35] <habeeb> Jordan_U: yeah, well, I can't find the source..

[03:36] <habeeb> Jordan_U: and well, automatix, works alright.
[03:36] <sirus> ant-: alright so i need to get to single user mode
[03:36] <Jordan_U> !automatix | habeeb
[03:36] <ubotu> habeeb: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[03:37] <lipocsi> cdemu not in repo
[03:37] <Hitomaro> hello
[03:38] <Pelo> Hitomaro,  if the resolution you want doesnt, apear in the dialog,   edit your xorg.conf file    sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf    add the resolutions your need about half way down the page and then  restart X
[03:38] <kismet> Hitomaro, type nvidia-settings from the terminal
[03:38] <kbrooks> lipocsi, add universe and try again.
[03:38] <lipocsi> k
[03:38] <Hitomaro> I tried all
[03:38] <SirTane> i gotta say guys
[03:38] <Pelo> sirus,  I think you mean getting to root mode ,   try sudo fsck
[03:38] <Ubuntu-maniac> Jordan_U, copying files, but the progress bar isn't moving
[03:38] <Hitomaro> here is my xorg
[03:38] <Hitomaro> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28907/plain/
[03:38] <kismet> Hitomaro, type nvidia-settings from the terminal
[03:38] <SirTane> just the tech support you nerds offer makes linux better than windows, no contest
[03:38] <ant-> !fsck | sirus
[03:38] <ubotu> sirus: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[03:38] <lipocsi> well i tried universe
[03:39] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, nerds make the world go round ;)
[03:39] <ant-> sirus: use that command
[03:39] <SirTane> NigelS: i did what you said, now what?
[03:39] <sdouble> SirTane: that's the beauty of open source
[03:39] <lipocsi> still not there apparently
[03:39] <jvai> lol @ sirlane.. indeed..
[03:39] <SirTane> oh... there we go, system restart required

[03:39] <sirus> ant-: do you know how to get ipv6 going?
[03:39] <kbrooks> lipocsi:
[03:39] <Hitomaro>  I tried that

[03:39] <ubotu> Package cdemu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:39] <ant-> sirus: nope
[03:39] <Hitomaro> the most it goes is 1024x768

[03:41] <Jordan_U> !hi | Hitomaro
[03:41] <ubotu> Hitomaro: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:41] <Ubuntu-maniac> do i need to install any drivers after ubuntu finished its install?
[03:41] <lipocsi> kbrooks i think im just gonna go google the binary
[03:41] <lipocsi> thanks for the help
[03:41] <sirus> Pelo: i'll try that
[03:41] <kbrooks> lipocsi, ok, go then  :-)
[03:41] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, Depends on your hardware
[03:41] <habeeb> aysiu is back in the forums. awesome.
[03:41] <habeeb> (just noticed)
[03:41] <cs5> once didnt load for an hour, once at reading fs 15% of instal, there for 2 hours. another time 55 minutes during questions
[03:41] <sirus> ant-: you should let me see your ,txt file
[03:41] <TaJMoX> Ubuntu-maniac: go into terminal and do glxinfo |grep direct    if the answer is yes then no you dont
[03:41] <Jordan_U> Ubuntu-maniac, If everything worked on the LiveCD then no
[03:41] <ant-> sirus: for conky?
[03:42] <cs5> verified and memory checked out fine
[03:42] <sirus> ant-: yep
[03:42] <Pelo> cs5,  chck the cd for defects and/or try the alternate install cd
[03:42] <Ubuntu-maniac> i remembered the last time i installed on this desktop
[03:42] <Hitomaro> heres my xorg people http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28907/plain/ please help me out, I want to change my screen resolution to 1280x1024
[03:42] <Ubuntu-maniac> Restricted drivers has something on my Gfx card.
[03:42] <Hitomaro> this is my 1st day using ubuntu
[03:42] <ant-> sirus: alright, but your going to have to edit it a little
[03:42] <cs5> verified and memory checked out fine
[03:42] <TaJMoX> Ubuntu-maniac: just install your video driver then
[03:42] <Jordan_U> Hitomaro, What GPU?
[03:42] <sirus> dats cool
[03:42] <Hitomaro> nvidia
[03:42] <Pelo> Hitomaro, did you try that nvidia-setting command that was suggested a little while ago ?
[03:42] <sdouble> I would go with the alternate.  During the install, you can delete the partition your kubuntu installation is in and use that for your new installation as well
[03:42] <Hitomaro> yes I did Pelo
[03:42] <Ubuntu-maniac> are there any tweaked drivers for ubuntu? performance-wise
[03:42] <Hitomaro> yet 1024 is the highest it reached
[03:42] <Jordan_U> Hitomaro, Have you use Restricted Driver Manager to get the drivers for it?
[03:43] <cs5> is there an easy way to update the two steps to fiesty
[03:43] <Hitomaro> yes indeed I have
[03:43] <Hitomaro> it's enabled
[03:43] <NigelS> night everyone
[03:43] <Hitomaro> night
[03:43] <Pelo> cs5,  I have no idea what you just asked
[03:43] <sdouble> I'm not a fan of updates, so I personally couldn't help you with that.
[03:43] <Jordan_U> Pelo, Maybe he is using Dapper?
[03:44] <amigamia> hi is this a valid NTP server? 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
[03:44] <sdouble> Pelo: I believe he asked if he could just update to feisty
[03:44] <Pelo> Jordan_U, possilby
[03:44] <Pelo> sdouble, he was taling about installin ubuntu over kubuntu earlier
[03:44] <ant-> sirus: http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/28909/
[03:44] <sdouble> I know, I was helping.  Sounds like he wants to update to feisty, with gnome instead of kde
[03:45] <cs5> pelo i am running a good instal of kubuntu which i have reinstalled because of my drastic failure at installing ubuntu on the partition, instead could i upgrade my kubuntu to ubuntu fiesty?
[03:45] <sirus> ant-: thx
[03:45] <ant-> np

[03:48] <Pelo> SirTane, sorry you only get one
[03:48] <Jordan_U> nandovieira, Have you filed a bug report?

[03:48] <SirTane> so i've kinda got halfwood for organizing my apps so that i can see them all
[03:49] <nandovieira> Jordan_U: not yet
[03:49] <SirTane> or at least effectively look at a buncha stuff at once
[03:49] <Hitomaro> so what shall I replace it as?
[03:49] <SirTane> are there any easy ways to do that with ubuntu?

[03:49] <MajorPayne> How do I chown a link made with ln -s?  When I do chown on a link made with ls -l it chown's the directory the link points to.
[03:49] <jvai> medibuntu is broke
[03:49] <SirTane> well, for starters how can i make the resolution bigger?
[03:50] <chohmann> Hitomaro: Actually, i need to see the lines abbove that, indicating my the mode 1280 mode lines are being rejected.
[03:50] <Hitomaro> ok..
[03:50] <Pelo> OregonJim,  go the www.winehq.org site ,  in the download section ,  under ubuntu , and make sure you got the correct  repos and correct key for that repos
[03:50] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, uhhh the resolution of your screen? you might need to edit some xorg things if its not already detected, but it would be system>preferences>screen resolution
[03:50] <sirus> ant-: thx where is the txt file on ubuntu
[03:50] <SirTane> d4rkmonkey: i checked there already
[03:50] <Hitomaro> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28913/plain/
[03:50] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, I'm pretty sure theres a much easier way coming up in gutsy, from the time I tried tribe2
[03:50] <SirTane> the max is 1024
[03:51] <Hitomaro> chohmann http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28913/plain/
[03:51] <Jordan_U> OregonJim, You need to get the pgp keys for that repository
[03:51] <SirTane> and i refuse to use anything that small
[03:51] <OregonJim> Pelo: Ok. I used synaptic to install wine with Edgy.
[03:51] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, you're gonna have to edit xorg then, do you know what the max resolution your comp can handle/what resolution you want?
[03:51] <SirTane> 1280 would be okay
[03:51] <Pelo> OregonJim,  same answer
[03:51] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:51] <Dezine> For some reason Ubuntu isn't letting me get online, it recognizes the ethernet card but won't connect. Also after it logs in I get the error "Hall failed to start" and I'm not sure if that is related to my internet issue
[03:51] <OregonJim> Pelo thanks. I'll see if I can figure it out. Later...
[03:52] <d4rkmonkey> SirTane, go through that, and leave like everything the same except when you get to screen resolution
[03:52] <Dezine> Also, I've been online before and all of a sudden I can't.
[03:52] <chohmann> Hitomaro: Look for the lines that say "Not using mode line ..."

[03:58] <nich0s> pi3: what will that tell me?
[03:59] <chohmann> Hitomaro: You need to restart X using 'ctrl+alt+backspace'.
[03:59] <B-777> Just installed pidgin 2.0.2 debian package, but need to know how to add it to the menu
[03:59] <edson> how I install font in ubuntu? example: lime, shine and edges for BitchX
[03:59] <pi3> nich0s, it will list the pci devices. You can use lspci -v to be verbose
[03:59] <nixnoob> why does mounting /dev/loop0 fail on boot?
[03:59] <sn0w>  B-777, system -> prefs -> menu
[03:59] <d4rkmonkey> goddamn fish..
[03:59] <Hitomaro> ok chohmann
[03:59] <SirTane> i still have no clue to increase my resolution
[04:00] <Hitomaro> do I save it first?
[04:00] <leo_rockw> hi, i would like to know if somebody can help me load X. i get a "screen not found" error
[04:00] <edson> how I install font in ubuntu? example: lime, shine and edges for BitchX
[04:00] <nich0s> pi3:  I am showing the card in there, but whenever I look at the information about the connection from the Network GUI, it tells me "Wired Ethernet"
[04:00] <chohmann> hitomaro: yes, sorry, edit xorg.conf, save, then restart X
[04:00] <B-777> Snow, what do I do in that menu...don't see anything to add programs to the menu
[04:00] <Pelo> SirTane,  it might be a good idea to search the forum for your nvidia card model for possilble answers
[04:01] <SirTane> does it vary on graphics card?
[04:01] <leo_rockw> hi, i would like to know if somebody can help me load X. i get a "screen not found" error. i'm on a laptop w/ ati radeon x1400 mobility
[04:01] <pi3> nich0s, why do you want the GUI not to tell you "Wired Ethernet"?
[04:01] <Pelo> d4rkmonkey, sudo killall gnome-panel
[04:01] <borschty_> Pelo, no need for sudo
[04:01] <sn0w> B-777,  system -> prefs -> main menu, sorry
[04:01] <edson> how I install font in ubuntu? example: lime, shine and edges for BitchX
[04:01] <nich0s> pi3: I guess it's not a big deal. :P
[04:01] <sn0w> B-777, then on the left, click where you which mean you want to put it in, probably internet, then click new item
[04:01] <B-777> Snow still don't see it, I am using ubuntu 6.06 and not 7.04
[04:02] <sn0w> B-777, your using the latest gnome tho right?
[04:02] <B-777> Snow, not sure how do I check that?
[04:02] <hero> is #linpeople a good "off topic" place?
[04:02] <B-777> <<<Is a noob LOL
[04:02] <Hitomaro> chohmann
[04:02] <Hitomaro> restarted
[04:02] <nich0s> exit
[04:03] <sn0w> B-777, haha its ok, do this, run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[04:03] <Pelo> hero,  there is always  #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:03] <chohmann> hitomaro: any luck with 1280x1024?
[04:03] <Hitomaro> no :(
[04:03] <sn0w> B-777, the upgrade will take a little longer, but will upgrade you to the latest of everything you have
[04:03] <sn0w> probably a good thing to do anyway
[04:03] <Hitomaro> how do I get back to the nvidia settings?
[04:03] <Alconquian> I need to temporarily bridge ethernet to wireless, and I believe routing (with a laptop -- 1 ethernet/1 wireless) is the best way. Are there any suggested routing GUI utilities, or am I more or less going to need to read up on iptables again?
[04:03] <B-777> Snow: Wilco...uno momento por favor while I go do that
[04:04] <leo_rockw> i can't load X on my live cd or on my fresh install... i get a "no screen found error" does anybody know how to solve this?
[04:04] <Superkuh> gksudo nvidia-settings &
[04:04] <meme_> Hello, what would be the best program to use to watch my dvds in ubuntu?
[04:04] <chohmann> do you still get the no valid modes for "1280x1024" message in /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Use can type 'grep WW /var/log/Xorg.0/log' to check

[04:04] <sn0w> meme_, vlc best player ever
[04:05] <meme_> Ok thanks
[04:05] <I-Hop> is there an ircd for the ubuntu dapper drake platform?
[04:05] <Hitomaro> chohmann
[04:05] <Hitomaro> how do I log there?
[04:05] <sn0w> meme_, also look into automatix2, it can automate installing of the codecs and players you will need
[04:05] <B-777> Snow: Ok done what you said to do
[04:05] <B-777> Snow: What next?
[04:05] <Hitomaro> ok there
[04:05] <meme_> automatrix2 sounds like what i want
[04:05] <Hitomaro> so what do I search?
[04:06] <Hitomaro> chohmann
[04:06] <Flannel> !automatix | sn0w, meme_
[04:06] <ubotu> sn0w, meme_: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:06] <sn0w> B-777, that probably didnt really help the problem at hand, but whatever, still a good thing to do, one sec
[04:06] <sn0w> blah blah
[04:06] <sn0w> i like automatix
[04:06] <Flannel> sn0w: don't recommend it here.
[04:06] <meme_> Ok thanks
[04:06] <sn0w> ok sorry
[04:06] <teer2> trying to find ALSACONF utility - which package do I need to install?
[04:06] <chohmann> hitomaro: open a terminal window and type the following: grep WW /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:06] <meme_> So vls is pretty good?
[04:07] <meme_> vlc
[04:07] <sn0w> meme_, if you do decide to use it, just be smart about what you do with it
[04:07] <level1> Hi, my computer has been (only on rare occasion) doing a partial suspend where it turns off the fans and other devices but leaves the processor running... not only does there not seem to be a way to bring the computer back, but if I don't notice, it can overheat the processor... this is on a laptop
[04:07] <Pelo> sn0w, mentionning automatix in this channel is considered spam as it will invariably trigger a dosen !automatix response

[04:07] <sn0w> lame
[04:07] <meme_> I just whant to watch my dvds
[04:07] <meme_> the totem player gives me a headache
[04:08] <level1> It might be related to fglrx... I know it happens whenever I do beryl but it also happens sometimes in normal kde
[04:08] <B-777> Snow, anything else I can do, desperate here to communicate with friends on MSN
[04:08] <sn0w> meme_, goto the link ubotu sent you above with the dvd stuff
[04:08] <Flannel> sn0w: It's not considered spam.  We just discourage it's use, and as such, as you don't recommend it here.
[04:08] <sn0w> Flannel, i understand, sorry
[04:08] <meme_> thanks
[04:08] <level1> meme_: have you installed medibuntu?  thats just as good as automatix, and won't break systems
[04:08] <Hitomaro> hey chohmann
[04:08] <meme_> no
[04:08] <chohmann> Hitomaro: can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.o.log again
[04:08] <Pelo> meme_,  you can install mplayer vlc xine and a few others of your choice, welcome to linux
[04:08] <Hitomaro> ok
[04:08] <teer2> meme_: Buy DVDs without copy protection, instead.
[04:08] <Pelo> later folks
[04:08] <leo_rockw> meme_, vlc is a great program
[04:09] <nich0s> Is there any way that I would be able to change the background for each of my workspaces?
[04:09] <borschty_> totem can play dvds, but not the dvd-menus so you have to access the dvd by opening dvd:///0 (or maybe a different number, depends on dvd)
[04:09] <Hitomaro> are you sure thats right?
[04:09] <Hitomaro> /var/log/Xorg.o.log?
[04:09] <chohmann> Hitomaro: also pastebin your modified xorg.conf
[04:09] <I-Hop> are there no ircds for ubuntu dapper then?
[04:09] <chohmann> hitomaro: sorry, Xorg.0.log
[04:09] <Hitomaro> ok
[04:09] <kbrooks> why wont dvds work?
[04:10] <kbrooks> in gxine
[04:10] <kbrooks> it says that ano demuxer found

[04:10] <teer2> did the alsaconf utility get taken out of the alsa-utils package or something?
[04:10] <borschty_> kbrooks, sounds like a missing codec
[04:10] <bruenig> !info slim
[04:11] <ubotu> Package slim does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:11] <drm> 
[04:11] <sn0w> B-777, do you have a .config folder in your homedir
[04:11] <bruenig> ah someone needs to package that
[04:11] <Hitomaro> chohmann
[04:11] <Hitomaro> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28916/plain/
[04:11] <drm> 
[04:11] <Hitomaro> oh :D
[04:11] <sn0w> B-777, open term, type "cd ~/.config/menus/"
[04:11] <sn0w> B-777, does that work?
[04:11] <d4rkmonkey> drm ????
[04:12] <sn0w> B-777, iv never used anything but 7.04 so im not sure, im basically guessing here
[04:12] <drm> ^^;;; sorry that's my misstake.
[04:12] <B-777> Snow standby...was looking something up in google
[04:12] <sn0w> B-777, ok
[04:12] <drm> I love google.
[04:12] <drm> B-777
[04:13] <B-777> Snow, it took me to the directory which has a sub directory called settings.menu
[04:14] <Hitomaro> you there chohmann?
[04:14] <sn0w> theres no applications.menu?
[04:15] <B-777> Negative
[04:15] <chohmann> yes, i'm on ubuntuforums, looking up your problem
[04:15] <lipocsi> i managed to mount an iso and managed to install thru cedega but it wont detect cd when i run it. anyone know how to fix this?
[04:15] <lipocsi> is there anyway to mount it and make cedega think its a cd?
[04:16] <equium> hello, my laptop internal speakers works great for me but when I plug my headphones in I have no sound.. running ubuntu 7.04, soundcard ATI SB-450
[04:16] <nich0s> Is there any way that I would be able to change the background for each of my workspaces?
[04:17] <Hitomaro> hey umm
[04:17] <MSIGuy> Can anyone help me get my wireless connection setup?
[04:17] <Hitomaro> why can't I see my windows borders?
[04:17] <MSIGuy> I've got it working under windows, but don't know where to set all the SSID and WEP key.
[04:17] <monkey_> hi
[04:17] <chohmann> hitomaro: what type of monitor do you have?
[04:17] <B-777> God this is hard work getting ubuntu to work ther way you want it to lol
[04:18] <robby> hey all
[04:18] <cactaur> MSIGuy: System>Administration>Network
[04:18] <Hitomaro> 17inch lcd
[04:18] <monkey_> who use asus k8u-x  don't sound
[04:18] <Hitomaro> chohmann
[04:18] <sobersabre> hi is there a special amd64 bit related channel ?
[04:18] <capitanyochua> to change permissions on a mounted ipod would you use chmod u+w /mnt/ipod?
[04:19] <capitanyochua> To add the writing permission for the user?
[04:19] <MSIGuy> Is there a way to have it a prefered connection but if that's not available, automaticly connect to whatever?
[04:19] <stetran> if my system completely fails the memtest+ what do i have to do? :x
[04:19] <sn0> stetran it means one or more stick of memory is faulty
[04:19] <stetran> dead?
[04:19] <stetran> or just
[04:19] <stetran> half dead
[04:19] <stetran> but beyond dead that i need to buy a new slot
[04:19] <sn0> if the memory was dead it should not POST with it in
[04:19] <stetran> coz bios still picks up 1gb
[04:20] <sobersabre> capitanyochua: I find it easier to use the bits rwx in octal. user's writing bit is the 2^2, 4
[04:20] <sn0w> B-777, im so confused here, i dont see how your system menu can be different than mine
[04:20] <sn0> but faullty memory can display correct size
[04:20] <stetran> oh right
[04:20] <stetran> so either way i need new sodimms?
[04:20] <borschty_> stetran, try removing one stick and run the test again
[04:20] <robby> there a terminal command similar to ipconfig?
[04:20] <stetran> its a laptop
[04:20] <stetran> might be a 1stick thing
[04:20] <sobersabre> hm is there flash for 64 bit amd already ?
[04:20] <stetran> let me check
[04:20] <sn0> yes stetran , assuming you are testing sticks individually
[04:20] <MSIGuy> So, "Network Password" is my WEP key in hex right?
[04:20] <cactaur> MSIGuy: Sorry, not that I know of.
[04:20] <capitanyochua> sobersabre,  I'm a new to linux. So everything you said went over my head.
[04:20] <cactaur> MSIGuy: Yes
[04:20] <Chip> normal comp is a x86 right?
[04:20] <B-777> Snow, I am using a previous version of ubuntu
[04:21] <B-777> Snow 6.06
[04:21] <chohmann> hitomaro: r u still there?
[04:21] <MSIGuy> Man, it would be a real bummer not to have a connection prefer list.
[04:21] <Hitomaro> yes
[04:21] <chohmann> hitomaro: what type of monitor are you using?
[04:21] <B-777> Anyways I am going to bed...
[04:21] <bruenig> robby, ifconfig
[04:21] <sn0w> B-777, yea but still, iv been looking at dapper guides
[04:21] <Hitomaro> I have an Aopen 17inch lcd
[04:21] <sn0w> and they all basically match my setup
[04:21] <robby> cool
[04:21] <chohmann> hitomaro: it's listed as generic in your xorg.conf
[04:22] <Hitomaro> I know
[04:22] <capitanyochua> sobersabre,  mind explaining?
[04:22] <B-777> Strange...wonder if I should reinstall and start from scratch
[04:22] <sn0w> B-777, i cannot find one specifically for dapper and changing menu items, other than the ~/.config/menus/ thing
[04:22] <Hitomaro> so what should I do?
[04:22] <sn0w> B-777, maybe go back in there, look at the one you did have
[04:22] <chohmann> hitomaro: how was the xorg.conf configured originally?
[04:22] <sn0w> B-777, maybe create an applications.menu file and add just pidgin into it
[04:22] <B-777> Snow, if I could find where pidgin was installed to, I could create a shortcut to it on the desktop (like in windows)
[04:23] <Hitomaro> It was like that originally
[04:23] <Flannel> B-777: `which pidgin`
[04:23] <B-777> Flannel: 2.0.2
[04:23] <bruenig> lol
[04:23] <Flannel> B-777: no no.  'which pidgin' is the command you run, it returns the path
[04:23] <sn0w> B-777, most likely /usr/bin/
[04:23] <bruenig> weird output
[04:23] <Hitomaro> I'm using a F2700 17" TFT-LCD Monitor
[04:24] <chohmann> hitomaro: sorry, I meant, was the xorg.conf generated from the installation process, the installation of the nvidia drivers or something else?
[04:24] <B-777> Flannel: oooh LOL sorry, still learning ubuntu/linux commands
[04:24] <Hitomaro> Another user help me edit it
[04:24] <capitanyochua> anyone help me with changing permissions on a mounted device?
[04:24] <Hitomaro> so it must've changed from a lot of editing..
[04:24] <bruenig> !anyone | capitanyochua
[04:24] <ubotu> capitanyochua: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:25] <drm> what you need permission?
[04:25] <drm> root?
[04:25] <chohmann> hitomaro: ah, i see. ok, here's what i would recommend, use the Ubuntu Live CD and copy the xorg.conf that it generates.
[04:25] <sn0w> B-777, you find the path?
[04:25] <capitanyochua> Okay. I need to change permissions on a mounted device. Am I doing it properly with chmod?
[04:25] <Hitomaro> how do I use the livecd now?
[04:25] <bruenig> capitanyochua, what is the filesystem
[04:25] <capitanyochua> because I received an "operation not permitted" when trying the command.
[04:26] <B-777> Snow...looks like it didn't get installed...but I swear I thought it did off the debian packages
[04:26] <chohmann> hitomaro: the live cd, is the same as the installtion cd. :)
[04:26] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  trying to change permissions on mounted ipod
[04:26] <B-777> Snow, I am beginning to think that pidgin 2.0.2 is not supported in dapper
[04:26] <Hitomaro> I know
[04:26] <Hitomaro> but
[04:26] <sn0w> B-777, odd, give it another try, let me know how it goes
[04:26] <bruenig> capitanyochua, so fat32 probably?
[04:26] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  yes.
[04:26] <Hitomaro> didn't I already install it?
[04:26] <chohmann> hitomaro: just put the installtion cd into your cd drive and reboot.
[04:26] <bruenig> capitanyochua, chmodding a fat32 is pointless because fat32 doesn't retain the permissions
[04:26] <Hitomaro> and besides I had a lot more problems before I edited out
[04:27] <bruenig> capitanyochua, you need to mount the entire drive with certain permissions
[04:27] <chohmann> hitomaro: we're not going to reinstall
[04:27] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  so what are you suggesting? And how do I go about that?
[04:27] <bruenig> !vfat
[04:27] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[04:27] <B-777> Snow...can I send you a private message please?
[04:27] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  I can't write into my ipod as user.... I need to change that.
[04:27] <Hitomaro> ok.. I'l use livecd and I'll get the code for xorg.log
[04:28] <bruenig> capitanyochua, that page from ubotu ^^
[04:28] <chohmann> hitomaro: we're just going to boot using the live cd, so we can see what the monitor section of your xorg.conf should look like
[04:28] <Hitomaro> but whats the code again?
[04:28] <bruenig> capitanyochua, it should be mounted automatically with correct write permissions
[04:28] <Hitomaro> xorg.conf?
[04:28] <Hitomaro> ok
[04:28] <Vuen> hey guys
[04:28] <bruenig> capitanyochua, so if it isn't then you might also have other issues with hal or something else
[04:28] <Qarl> sdouble: I think "find blah -iregex regex_here" is faster
[04:28] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  That's another thing. Plugging the ipod in wouldn't automatically mount. I received some privilege error. So I had to mount manually.
[04:28] <Vuen> how do i make a message box pop up from a bash script?
[04:28] <elpargo> capitanyochua, is it mac formatted?
[04:29] <Vuen> what's the program to do that? zenity or something?
[04:29] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  no. FAt32. windows
[04:29] <Hitomaro> how do I get into the xorg.conf page?
[04:29] <elpargo> Vuen, this is not vb :) short story you can't
[04:29] <B-777> Snow, I looked at the directory structure, but still not sure where it installed to
[04:29] <Hitomaro> I know I first go to the terminal, but what was the code
[04:29] <bruenig> capitanyochua, hmm I am not to big on hal myself even though I use it, I think it is pretty buggy. Basically go to that ubout link, you are probably going to want to mount the drive with the options fmask=111,dmask=000
[04:29] <elpargo> capitanyochua, then try the automount link bruenig send sometimes it doesn't works out of the box.
[04:30] <bruenig> ubotu*
[04:30] <chohmann> hitomaro: the steps are 1. boot from live cd 2. save a copy of the xorg.conf file to your home directory 3. reboot normally using your existing ubuntu installtion
[04:30] <elpargo> Vuen, why you want that in the first place?
[04:30] <Vuen> elpargo: ah, looks like zenity for gtk+ and kdialog for qt
[04:30] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  send it again for me please?
[04:30] <Hitomaro> ok but
[04:30] <Vuen> elpargo: pranking a friend's computer
[04:30] <capitanyochua> bruenig,  what's Hal??
[04:31] <gerro> trying to compile something and it says it needs X includes. what does that mean?
[04:31] <Hitomaro> chohmann, how do I get to the xorg.conf page?
[04:31] <elpargo> Vuen, okey... but that's not a shell script
[04:31] <bruenig> capitanyochua, hardware abstraction layer, it is sort of the standard thing that automounts drives and such, even though there are many utilities that can do that, all the DEs seem to just use hal so you pretty much have to use it
[04:31] <elpargo> gerro, that you need X develpoment packages, there should be a readme around telling you which packages to install.
[04:32] <B-777> WOOPS
[04:32] <chohmann> hitomaro: it located in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:32] <sn0w> B-777, it looks like those files are just xml files that the menu uses
[04:32] <B-777> I figured out what the problem was
[04:32] <Hitomaro> thanks
[04:32] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  nevermind I got the link.
[04:32] <stetran> thats depressing
[04:32] <stetran> stick of ram has randomly died
[04:32] <stetran> ;[
[04:32] <B-777> Snow, I don't have the main program installed because I am missing some dependencies LOL
[04:32] <B-777> DUH
[04:32] <sn0w> B-777, haha nice

[04:32] <acad> does anybody know of an ADSL modem that COMES WITH open source'd firmware?
[04:32] <sdouble> thanks Qarl , good to know
[04:32] <Chip> when i try to install the nvidia drivers it says it must be run in root, how do i do that?
[04:33] <B-777> Snow, thanks for the assistance on any account :)
[04:33] <Vuen> elpargo: no, but it can be launched from a shell script.
[04:33] <sn0w> B-777, np
[04:33] <d4rkmonkey> Chip, sudo the command?
[04:33] <stetran> anyone know why my ram would just go faulty after 3 years of no problems? :x
[04:33] <chohmann> hitomaro: you can do it from the gui, just open the file manager, navigate to the /etc/X11 directory, copy the file and paste it to your hardrive which is mounted right on the desktop during a live cd session
[04:33] <Vuen> elpargo: that's what i needed.
[04:33] <chohmann> doh!
[04:33] <Chip> d4rkmonkey: thx, i just got ubuntu 2 days ago
[04:33] <d4rkmonkey> Chip, I got it a while ago but I'm not that good
[04:34] <d4rkmonkey> Chip, not 100% sure it will work
[04:44] <stetran> if u have to run in root
[04:44] <stetran> don't u just log in?
[04:44] <stetran> thru terminal
[04:44] <stetran> :x
[04:44] <stetran> sudo -i
[04:44] <stetran> or something
[04:44] <stetran> oO
[04:44] <elpargo> Vuen, great you may try ncurses too, it's looks like a lower level error, maybe that with a little kill of the X server will  be more dramatic :D
[04:44] <borschty_> sudo -s
[04:44] <stetran> ^
[04:44] <stetran> i also have had ubuntu for 2 days
[04:44] <stetran> xD
[04:44] <Flannel> !enter | stetran
[04:44] <ubotu> stetran: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:44] <Chip> now i get an error You appear to be running an X server; please exit X befor installing.
[04:44] <harushimo> !mplayer
[04:44] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[04:44] <gerro> elpargo: I installed xserver-xorg-dev isn't that all?
[04:44] <Flannel> Chip: `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop`
[04:44] <Shadow_mil> whats the command to install building components?
[04:44] <Chip> Flannel:what's that do?
[04:44] <Flannel> Shadow_mil: install build-essential, through whatever package manager you like
[04:44] <netyire> Shadow_mil: apt-get build <debname>
[04:44] <Flannel> Chip: it stops your X server
[04:44] <Shadow_mil> sudo apt-get install build-ess or something?
[04:44] <Shadow_mil> ty
[04:44] <Chip> Flannel:what's my x server anyway?
[04:44] <elpargo> gerro, yes or no, it all depends on what you are compiling.
[04:44] <borschty_> Chip before you do it: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" starts it again
[04:44] <nixnoob> why does mounting /dev/loop0 fail on boot?
[04:44] <netyire> whoops, sorry apt-get build-deb <debname>
[04:44] <nixnoob> why did my touchpad work the first time i booted a new kernel and then stop working the next time?
[04:44] <Flannel> Chip: X is a part of the GUI (the base of it).  When you stop it, you'll have no GUI
[04:44] <harushimo> how do install mplayer
[04:44] <harushimo> !mplayer
[04:44] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[04:44] <netyire> that installs the dependencies, just install what Flannel said above that
[04:44] <Vuen> elpargo: nah, that's a bit too hardcore.
[04:44] <Vuen> elpargo: thanks though.
[04:44] <netyire> Shadow_mil: I recommend you use checkinstall -D instead of make install, that way, managing installed stuff is easier
[04:44] <darwin81> What is the best solution for running DOS programs (especifically games) under Ubuntu?
[04:44] <K`zan> Can anyone find vmware-server in adept?  I just had to reinstall from scratch and the repository manager is completely different now and I can't find that.  TIA!
[04:44] <Flannel> !checkinstall | Shadow_mil
[04:44] <ubotu> Shadow_mil: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[04:44] <netyire> darwin81: try dosbox
[04:44] <Flannel> darwin81: DOSBox is a DOS emulator.  Works really well
[04:44] <Vuen> K`zan: doesn't vmware-server cost money? i don't think it's in the repositories...
[04:44] <netyire> Vuen: there is some free version (price wise) you can download
[04:44] <Flannel> !vmware | K`zan
[04:44] <ubotu> K`zan: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[04:44] <MSIGuy> So, wireless problem.
[04:44] <Vuen> netyire, K`zan: then it's vmware-player
[04:44] <capitanyochua> bruenig, When following instructions on the link you gave me i came across this... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28920/plain/
[04:44] <netyire> :D
[04:44] <K`zan> Vuen: There is a freebie version now.  Until something got screwed up and I had to do a wipe/reinstall I found it.
[04:44] <K`zan> Checking
[04:44] <MSIGuy> Ah, I just realized my problem.
[04:44] <Hitomaro> ok
[04:44] <MSIGuy> lol  let me go check!  lol
[04:44] <Hitomaro> I can't even get into livecd because of nvidia
[04:44] <Vuen> K`zan: ah, yes the vmware version is just the player. google easyvmx to set up a vm.
[04:44] <spongebobbi> virtual box is good and its in the repository
[04:44] <elpargo> Vuen, come on what prank is it if it's not going to destroy some data?
[04:44] <Hitomaro> hey chohmann
[04:44] <Hitomaro> are you there?
[04:44] <Flannel> Hitomaro: you trying to install? or what?
[04:44] <Hitomaro> no
[04:44] <netyire> Vuen: easyvmx?
[04:44] <Ricket> I am back for like the 10th time today!
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> hey Ricket
[04:44] <duelboot> I recently upgraded to fiesty and now k3b won't recognize either of my DVD/CD-ROM drives...I have also installed freevo and it recognizes when I put a DVD in...any assistance?
[04:44] <netyire> !easyvmx
[04:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easyvmx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:44] <harushimo> is mplayer available through apt-get?
[04:44] <Hitomaro> I'm trying to change my screen resolution to 1280x1024
[04:44] <gerro> elpargo: you know of any other x includes
[04:44] <netyire> hmm, I'll go google it
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> harushimo, yes
[04:44] <Flannel> Hitomaro: it's in multiverse
[04:44] <harushimo> this is the command right sudo apt-get install mplayer?
[04:44] <Hitomaro> Flannel: what?
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> yeah
[04:44] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  after following the link that was given to me I came across this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28920/plain/. What should I do?
[04:44] <netyire> harushimo: yep
[04:44] <Ricket> I was wondering this time, is it possible to add support for Alt+[unicode value]  for inserting special characters like Windows does? For instance, Alt+666 inserts a U-umlaut (a U with 2 dots over it).. I use that symbol a lot, for instance in passwords, and now in Ubuntu I end up going to the character map...
[04:44] <harushimo> it doesn't work
[04:44] <elpargo> gerro, read the README or INSTALL for all I know you are compiling something 5yrs old that won't even work anymore.
[04:44] <Hitomaro> ok now I have another problem
[04:44] <Vuen> netyire: yeah, it makes vmware images. you can't make new images with the player, only with workstation (which costs big bucks), so easyvmx is the free alternative
[04:44] <Flannel> !multiverse | Hitomaro
[04:44] <ubotu> Hitomaro: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[04:44] <chohmann> hitomaro: sorry, bathroom
[04:44] <Hitomaro> np
[04:44] <Flannel> Oh.  Hitomaro, sorry.  bad nickcomplete
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> Ricket, yes but its not alt
[04:44] <stetran> anyone know why i can't access my windows network from my ubuntu workstation?
[04:44] <Vuen> stetran: install samba
[04:44] <Chip> no GUI=bad
[04:44] <stetran> done that, still doesn't work
[04:44] <Flannel> harushimo: you'll need to have multiverse enabled in order for it to work
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> ricket ctrl+shift+u then number, you can let go of U but I hold ctrl + shift anyways
[04:44] <netyire> Vuen: thanks! check out their website though, I think they have vmware server for free now
[04:44] <Hitomaro> hey chohmann
[04:44] <elpargo> capitanyochua, you don't need ntfs to get ipod ipod is fat
[04:44] <Vuen> stetran: configure samba ;)
[04:44] <harushimo> how do I enable multiverse?
[04:44] <stetran> Vuen :] 
[04:44] <Hitomaro> now my compiz is disfunctioning

[04:44] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  so type no?
[04:44] <Hitomaro> I can't seen my boarders
[04:44] <stetran> erm
[04:44] <netyire> harushimo: start synaptic (gksu synaptic) change repositories settings
[04:44] <Hitomaro> no boarders :(
[04:44] <stetran> if you can tell me what i do with it also :] 
[04:44] <Flannel> Chip: ctrl-alt-F1 (c-a-F7 gets you back)
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> ricket  == 666, its different than with alt code
[04:44] <harushimo> ok
[04:44] <elpargo> harushimo, just poke around the "software sources" dialog
[04:44] <Flannel> Hitomaro: #ubuntu-effects for compiz support
[04:44] <duelboot> I recently upgraded to fiesty and now k3b won't recognize either of my DVD/CD-ROM drives...I have also installed freevo and it recognizes when I put a DVD in...any assistance?
[04:44] <Chip> Flannel: lol thx for that now :P
[04:44] <Ricket> d4rkmonkey: yeah I just tried it and found that... Well, I will find the code. Thanks!
[04:44] <chohmann> hitomaro: was the monitor section in the live cd xorg.conf different?
[04:44] <elpargo> capitanyochua, if you don't have any NTFS then yes
[04:44] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  i'm new to this. What does that even mean?
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> no problem Ricket
[04:44] <harushimo> non-free multiverse? I'm guessing you have to pay
[04:44] <Vuen> stetran: here's my /etc/samba/smb.conf : http://pastebin.ca/606785
[04:44] <nixnoob> no
[04:44] <netyire> duelboot: try manually setting the drives
[04:44] <netyire> in the k3b settings page
[04:44] <Flannel> harushimo: no.  Just not Free as in speech.
[04:44] <Vuen> stetran: it shares perfectly with windows boxes. enjoy
[04:44] <John`> anyone here have the game MUGEN for linux?
[04:44] <stetran> Vuen, i am 100% useless at ubuntu atm, what do i do with that?
[04:44] <Ricket> d4rkmonkey: and in case you are wondering... I looked up the wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/) and it is DC, so Ctrl+Shift+U, DC works :)
[04:44] <elpargo> capitanyochua, NFTS is the default windows filesystem
[04:44] <netyire> !mugen
[04:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mugen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:45] <stetran> sudo wget http://pastebin.ca/606785
[04:45] <stetran> ?
[04:45] <duelboot> netyire, I tried, but it says the device is not there

[04:45] <harushimo> I just want to know what to click in the installation media section
[04:45] <d4rkmonkey> thanks Ricket
[04:45] <Vuen> stetran: ah. press alt+f2, and type in `gksu gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf`
[04:45] <duelboot> nope, netyire
[04:45] <Flannel> harushimo: i't's free (as in beer, no cost) but not Free as in Speech (not a free license)
[04:45] <Vuen> stetran: then compare the contents with that of the pastebin i sent you.
[04:46] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28921/plain/   The link given said no entires in your /etc/fstab for windows drives already and the window drives are cureently not mounted
[04:46] <Fossilet> hi
[04:46] <OmegaCenti> holy heck that was a long tech...
[04:46] <elpargo> Flannel, where is the free beer????
[04:46] <OmegaCenti> Alright, my question is this: where is a file like setserial.conf in ubuntu?
[04:46] <Fossilet> I am using beryl. But screenshot of a window is boardless.
[04:46] <Fossilet> Why??
[04:46] <netyire> duelboot: hmm, sounds bad. let me do some searching, I'll let you know if I find anything
[04:46] <Vuen> OmegaCenti: locate `setserial.conf`
[04:46] <Flannel> Fossilet: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support, thanks
[04:46] <drthunder> If you have no computing skills, and are broke, how can you contribute to ubuntu?
[04:46] <Fossilet> OK.
[04:46] <Vuen> Fossilet: need to enable argbvisuals.
[04:47] <OmegaCenti> Vuen: doesn't exist.
[04:47] <Fossilet> What is that ?
[04:47] <chohmann> hitomaro: still there?
[04:47] <Vuen> OmegaCenti: locate serial.conf?
[04:47] <elpargo> capitanyochua, that makes sense if you have no windows drives
[04:47] <Ricket> drthunder: if something about ubuntu doesn't work on your computer, report a bug or comment on an existing bug. That's one way to contribute.
[04:47] <OmegaCenti> Vuen: doesn't exist.
[04:47] <duelboot> netyire, thx...I'm checking as well
[04:47] <Fossilet> Vuen: argbvisuals is...?
[04:47] <Vuen> OmegaCenti: hm. sorry :(
[04:47] <Vuen> Fossilet: what video card do you have? ati? nvidia?
[04:47] <Fossilet> ATI.
[04:48] <Fossilet> does it care?
[04:48] <stetran> Vuen is it ok to pm u?

[04:48] <elpargo> drthunder, get some skills, or help in many other places you could write docs for example. All you need is understand what you are doing. or answer questuions here :)
[04:48] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  but something is in the /etc/fstab. and it isn't supposed to be...?
[04:48] <Vuen> stetran: sure, but i might not be here for long
[04:48] <Flannel> drthunder: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[04:48] <Vuen> Fossilet: what version of ubuntu do you have? 7.04?
[04:49] <elpargo> capitanyochua, sde? how many drives you have on that machine?
[04:49] <radhesh> anyone tried xen 3.1
[04:49] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  No clue. but /dev/sde2 is my ipod
[04:49] <gerro> elpargo: I have 9
[04:49] <K`zan> Nope, not vmplayer - vmware-server.  Gonna have to download it from the vmware site and install it.  Thanks folks!
[04:50] <elpargo> gerro, huh?
[04:50] <gerro> elpargo: yeah had to switch to linux because other OS don't support 9 hard drives :)
[04:50] <harushimo> I enable universe, I still couldn't find mplayer
[04:51] <Flannel> harushimo: you need to enable multiverse, not universe
[04:51] <radhesh> harushimo, maybe you should try automatix2
[04:51] <drthunder> WHere are my clean socks ? My feet are cold, and I'm wearing sandals?
[04:51] <Flannel> !automatix | radhesh
[04:51] <ubotu> radhesh: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:51] <dirtyhand> hey guys when Im browsing files, Ubuntu doesnt show me .htaccess files

[04:51] <radhesh> hmm... agree
[04:51] <elpargo> capitanyochua, ok that's a start did the script ran ok? try upluging ipod and try again.
[04:51] <radhesh> but ubotu, the point of ubuntu is to play around right?

[04:52] <radhesh> i mean you can use debian for stability
[04:52] <Flannel> radhesh: don't knowingly break people's machines.
[04:52] <elpargo> capitanyochua, unplug replug
[04:52] <Nutubuntu> radhesh,  if you're browsing in Nautilus, Ctl-H should toggle the display of hidden files
[04:52] <gerro> elpargo: oh they all on separate systems
[04:52] <radhesh> i don't do that flannel!
[04:52] <harushimo> i did but it shows mplayer for mozilla. I need the actual software
[04:52] <capitanyochua> elpargo,  unplug and replug, then mount? or leave unmounted while doing scripts?
[04:52] <Flannel> radhesh: Don't recommmend automatix, becuase it's likely to break people's machines.
[04:52] <radhesh> ok.
[04:53] <radhesh> maybe i should remove it too
[04:53] <Flannel> harushimo: You don't have multiverse enabled, you only have universe enabled.
[04:53] <zyj> hello
[04:53] <firelord902> Anyone know how to delete an old kernel?
[04:53] <radhesh> flannel, tried out xen 3.1?
[04:53] <Flannel> firelord902: just remove the package (linux-image-[version] -[type] ) through package management
[04:54] <elpargo> capitanyochua, yes you don't need to have it plug while rehashing the hal list.
[04:54] <Fossilet> Vuen: 7.04

[04:59] <bulmer> firelord902: umm kernel is not a package
[04:59] <Flannel> firelord902: linux-image-[version] -[arch] , so I'd search for linux-image
[04:59] <Flannel> bulmer: yes they are
[04:59] <Vuen> Fossilet: are you using the 0.2 debs? i think it's been fixed in a new version of beryl.
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> Fossilet: do you have an Nvidia videocard?
[05:00] <bulmer> they are a package? i refer to the support as a package
[05:00] <Vuen> Fossilet: yeah, it's definitely been fixed actually. notice you don't get window borders also in previews when you alt+tab.
[05:00] <Fossilet> Vuen: beryl-core 0.2.1 in feisty
[05:00] <duelboot> netyire, nope...when I put a music cd...it'll play, but I'm told it's not mounted (in the properties)...interesting
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> Fossilet: do you have an nvidia card?
[05:00] <d1gita1> hello.. hello.. hello... is there anybody in there?  just nod if you can hear me... is there anyone home?
[05:00] <Fossilet> IndyGunFreak: ati card
[05:00] <Hitomaro> what happened to the user that was helping me?
[05:00] <Vuen> Fossilet: ah. yeah, it's just because beryl's still beta. rest assured, sooner or later it will be finished :)
[05:00] <Fossilet> Vuen: alt tab prievw is ok.
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> Fossilet: sorry, the instructions i have are for an nvidia card.
[05:01] <Fossilet> Vuen: ok. I will wait for gutsy....;)
[05:01] <Hitomaro> can someone tell me the user that was just helping me?
[05:01] <Hitomaro> hey fossilet
[05:01] <Fossilet> IndyGunFreak: thank you anyway.:)
[05:01] <Vuen> Fossilet: hmm. wierd. then maybe it's just an option in the gnome screenshot app. ksnapshot offers me a checkbox that says Window Decorations, is there such a thing for gnome?
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> Fossilet: no prob... but i had the same problem, and a simple command line fixed the problem with my Nvidia card
[05:02] <Hitomaro> can you tell me the user that was helping me?
[05:02] <Fossilet> Vuen: yes, gnome has. even scrot sucks here.
[05:02] <Fossilet> hi Hitomaro
[05:02] <Fossilet> IndyGunFreak: which ?
[05:02] <Hitomaro> can you search my name back?
[05:02] <duelboot> Hitomaro, use your up arrow to scrolll through your messages sent and see who you sent them to
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> which?
[05:02] <Vuen> Fossilet: hm. ah well, sorry. you can ask in #beryl, they might be able to help.
[05:02] <netyire> duelboot: what are the device file permissions for the drives
[05:02] <Flannel> Hitomaro: they left
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: whats your problem?

[05:02] <Vuen> Fossilet: make sure that you let them know you do have window borders normally, you're just missing them in screenshots
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> Fossilet: try asking in #ubuntu-effects

[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[05:03] <Hitomaro> who was the user that was helping me out?
[05:03] <harushimo> what type of processor does 1.7ghz Athlon XP fall under? 586, 686
[05:03] <Flannel> Hitomaro: they left.
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: i have no idea, what is your problem?
[05:03] <Hitomaro> was it Chonnchman or something like that?
[05:03] <harushimo> i'm guessing 586 but I just want to make sure
[05:03] <Flannel> harushimo: 686, actually, k7
[05:03] <Hitomaro> :/
[05:04] <Fossilet> OK. thank you guys. :)
[05:04] <jeremysan> Hi all, im trying to blacklist a driver, but when I try to save the "blacklist" file, or any file in that folder ( /modprobe.d/ ) it tells me I do not have permission.  Can anybody help me fix the permission problem?
[05:04] <harushimo> ok
[05:04] <Flannel> jeremysan: you need to open your editor with sudo
[05:04] <Nutubuntu> jeremysan,  sudo (or gksudo)?
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> jeremysan: gksudo
[05:04] <sobersabre> hm is there flash for 64 bit amd already ?
[05:04] <sobersabre> hm is there flash for 64 bit amd already ?
[05:04] <sobersabre> hm is there flash for 64 bit amd already ?
[05:04] <Hitomaro> hey IndyGunFreak, I know the user left.. I just want to know the user name..
[05:04] <Hitomaro> for future reference
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: i have no idea
[05:04] <duelboot> is there a way to auto reconfigure "/etc/fstab" in ubuntu?
[05:04] <Hitomaro> how long were you here?
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> i just got here
[05:05] <netyire> duelboot: type gksu nautilus /dev
[05:05] <Flannel> Hitomaro: chohmann
[05:05] <Hitomaro> ok
[05:05] <Hitomaro> thanks Flannel
[05:05] <eternalswd> jeremysan, what they mean is open the editor with gksudo, like gksudo gedit from the alt+f2 run command
[05:05] <Hitomaro> lol
[05:05] <netyire> select the properties for the device files, check the permissions
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> !flash64
[05:05] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:05] <netyire> duelboot: or try sudo chmod 777 /dev<name>
[05:05] <jeremysan> ok, thanks all.
[05:06] <Fossilet> Hitomaro: chohmann
[05:06] <Fossilet> Hitomaro: I searched in xchat2 logs ;)
[05:06] <eternalswd> duelboot, what are you trying to access? you shouldn't need to change permissions on /dev
[05:06] <Fossilet> Jul 07 10:47:04 <chohmann>	hitomaro: still there?
[05:07] <duelboot> eternalswd, I wasn't...I recently upgraded to fiesty and now I can't access my DVD and CDROM drives
[05:07] <d4rkmonkey> duelboot, lshw I think lists your hardware, if you want to check if UBuntu recognizes at all
[05:08] <duelboot> d4rkmonkey, it's worked in the 4 previous versions of ubuntu...would hope fiesty wouldn't break that fine tradition :)
[05:08] <d4rkmonkey> lol duelboot
[05:08] <eternalswd> duelboot, I believe the way cdrom/dvd devices are mapped was changed from edgy to feisty.  try /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1  they should be symbolic links to where the drives actually are
[05:09] <duelboot> d4rkmonkey, eternalswd I just found them using lshw...it's now sr0 I think...lemme try...will let you know
[05:10] <mwales> join #xbins
[05:10] <eternalswd> duelboot, before I think they would be /dev/hd*, but now I believe they are /dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1.  The new kernel uses scsi even for ide devices
[05:10] <rsync> mwales ?
[05:10] <mwales> nm, i'm a retard
[05:12] <duelboot> eternalswd, now I get              mount: /dev/scd0: can't read superblock
[05:12] <eternalswd> duelboot, do you actually have a cd in there?
[05:13] <duelboot> eternalswd, yes....in both
[05:13] <eternalswd> duelboot, what's your fstab line?
[05:14] <duelboot> eternalswd, I'm trying it manually at the moment since fstab doesn't have the right dev
[05:14] <duelboot> I"m going to update fstab and try it again using mount -a eternalswd
[05:14] <Ricket> How do I check what bit depth (of the display) I am currently using?
[05:14] <duelboot> eternalswd, what should the line be?
[05:15] <eternalswd> duelboot, here's mine         /dev/scd0        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[05:17] <embers1> How can I get a list of installed hardware, mostly looking for my graphics card.
[05:18] <fellacious> Ubuntu means communism to others, or "In place of the old bourgeois society, with its classes and class antagonisms, we shall have an association, in which the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all"
[05:18] <DaltonS> fellacious, that's a lot of meaning for 6 letters.
[05:18] <fellacious> embers1: you are looking for the hardware compatibility list
[05:18] <fellacious> its on the wiki
[05:19] <fellacious> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:19] <fellacious> ^ ya that
[05:19] <radhesh> hi ! anybody used xen3.1 here?
[05:19] <embers1> fellacious: No, I'm installed and running just fine.  I just have no idea what is under the hood.
[05:19] <eternalswd> embers1, lshw from the terminal or install hardinfo in synaptic
[05:19] <fellacious> ya
[05:19] <duelboot> eternalswd, I give up for the night...will have to try tomorrow morning
[05:20] <firelord902> Can someone help me get my audio working?
[05:20] <eternalswd> firelord902, I'll see if I can help, what seems to be the problem?
[05:21] <firelord902> eternalswd, I reinstalled alsa with the latest version to get the intel hda working. In edgy it worked fine out of the box. Once I rebooted I heard the shutdown sound, once I restart there is no audio.
[05:22] <eternalswd> firelord902, did you install from source or from the repositories?
[05:22] <p47> how can I do a good whois in console ? becasue I can't get information when I try to do a whois www.domain.com
[05:22] <p47> :(
[05:22] <ed1t> how do i change the port of the webserver? i searched in /etc/apach2/apache2.conf to replace 80 with other number but theres no line for Listen 80
[05:23] <firelord902> eternalswd, I downloaded it off of the website and followed a tutorial.
[05:23] <Surb> p47, try nslookup
[05:23] <p47> ok
[05:24] <p47> Surb: just I get some information but I can't see the date of expiration !
[05:24] <firelord902> eternalswd, I use the tutorial here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[05:24] <astomper> Does anyone know of a good site to stream music off of, like a radio website?
[05:25] <Flannel> ed1t: you need to change it in /etc/apache2/ports.conf
[05:25] <eternalswd> firelord902, okay, open up alsamixer in the terminal and make sure nothing is muted or turned down.  right, left arrows change which of the options you are controlling.  pressing F5 will give you all of the options both input and output.  Pressing m will toggle mute
[05:26] <eternalswd> firelord902, and up, down arrows control the volume
[05:26] <astomper> firelord902, Make sure you don't have headphones plugged in too.
[05:27] <firelord902> eternalswd, still nothing
[05:28] <firelord902> eternalswd, I tested it with headphones and it works
[05:28] <eternalswd> firelord902, give output of the following here, it should be one line: cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | grep snd-hda-intel
[05:28] <firelord902> I got it working
[05:29] <firelord902> just plugged in my headphones and unplugged em
[05:29] <firelord902> Thanks!
[05:29] <eternalswd> weird, but glad it works now
[05:29] <firelord902> Yep lol
[05:29] <ant-> p47: whois --verbose www.domain.com
[05:30] <eternalswd> firelord902, still interested in what you get for the command:  cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | grep snd-hda-intel
[05:30] <p47> ant-: mmm no the same !
[05:30] <p47> :(
[05:30] <firelord902> eternalswd, i'll try it
[05:30] <ant-> it should give you expiration dates
[05:30] <firelord902> eternalswd, nothing came up
[05:30] <ant-> do a whois --verbose google.com
[05:31] <embers1> eternalswd: I'm looking through the print out of lshw, and I cannot tell exactly which card I have.
[05:31] <p47> ant-: oh yeah without www yeah now I can see !
[05:31] <p47> thanks !
[05:31] <p47> ant-: thanks
[05:31] <ant-> np
[05:32] <eternalswd> firelord902, maybe add the following to /etc/modproge.d/alsa-base: options snd-hda-intel model=auto
[05:32] <untruestory> hey
[05:32] <untruestory> is there a quick and easy way to open a windows self extracting executable in ubuntu?
[05:32] <eternalswd> firelord902, if it messes anything up, just remove it, but I would think it would help
[05:33] <untruestory> dell anyone?
[05:33] <untruestory> ooops
[05:33] <untruestory> didn't mean to say dell
[05:33] <untruestory> :P
[05:34] <milllmannn> im trying to apt-get libopenssl-ruby and getting this error "E: Invalid operation libopenssl-ruby"

[05:34] <eternalswd> milllmannn, sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby

[05:34] <milllmannn> oh... duh
[05:34] <milllmannn> im dumb
[05:35] <RRando> does anyone know what the deal is with installing fiesty on an HP laptop with ATI fgl 5200 graphics card?  The X server dies and will not come up, thus, no install :-(
[05:35] <milllmannn> now im getting this...

[05:40] <harushimo> its say something about libdvdread3 which then I got

[05:41] <Helmi> hi
[05:41] <BHSPitLappy> Hey all
[05:41] <BHSPitLappy> a broken dpkg basically amounts to needing to reinstall, does it not?
[05:41] <Helmi> does anyone know why sometimes typing is so delayed in bluefish editor?
[05:42] <jeremysan> ant- what do you mean when you put "!sudo | "
[05:42] <ant-> jeremysan: goto the website in that comment
[05:42] <ant-> and read
[05:42] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, reinstall what?  shouldn't need to reinstall ubuntu.
[05:42] <Nutubuntu> jeremysan, what you're trying to do is edit a file (/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist - yes?) but you don't have the correct permissions, as yourself, to save the file. So you start a text editor (let's say gedit) with the gksudo command ('gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist'). It will ask you for your password and temporarily give you the rights you need to edit that file.
[05:43] <arevamir> any one online?
[05:43] <Nutubuntu> jeremysan,  I'm not sure I have the file right, I'm awfully tired, but the logic's right ;)
[05:43] <jeremysan> Nutubuntu, Thank you for giving me a very good solution
[05:43] <Death_Sargent> I need wifi help
[05:43] <jeremysan> it worked.
[05:43] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, during a CD installation of feisty, there was an error with dpkg-  it said it could continue, but something may be messed up later on down the road.   In the resulting installation, dpkg is fully broken (the command, in any form, renders a console forever lost)
[05:43] <Zac1> Hi. What plug-in do i need to download to watch streaming quicktime videos
[05:43] <Zac1> ??
[05:44] <Nutubuntu> jeremysan,  y/w, glad it worked :)
[05:44] <Death_Sargent> i need wifi help
[05:44] <eternalswd> !wifi | Death_Sargent
[05:44] <ubotu> Death_Sargent: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:44] <Death_Sargent> this is a serious problem otherwise i would fix it myself
[05:44] <ant-> lol
[05:44] <Zac1> !quicktime
[05:44] <ubotu> 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
[05:44] <Death_Sargent> for some reason
[05:45] <Death_Sargent> or brb this is rediculous
[05:45] <Nutubuntu> now the fun part, jeremysan, read up on sudo and gksudo :) try psychocats.net
[05:45] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, still think I'm not SOL?
[05:45] <jeremysan> kk thanks :D
[05:46] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, if it happened during an install, just try reinstalling, I thought you meant apt-get was reporting a broken package, not that dpkg itself was broken.  did you check the integrity of the disc by comparing md5sums?
[05:46] <Zac1> What plugin do i need to download to watch streaming quicktime videos?
[05:46] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, I'm just planning on re-burning anyway, I've had some various issues with that disc.
[05:47] <eternalswd> Zac1, mplayerplug-in?
[05:47] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, I just find it sad that I can boot into a desktop and use the system, but there's nothing I can do to repair dpkg :(
[05:48] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, can you open a terminal in that system?
[05:48] <harushimo> !flash
[05:48] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:48] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, absolutely.
[05:48] <Zac1> eternalswd: i have that plug-in and it works in other instances but not for quicktime
[05:48] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, I can do everything short of installing/removing any software whatsoever
[05:49] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, I suppose you could try installing dpkg from source
[05:49] <BHSPitLappy> probably
[05:49] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, a reinstall would require less of my time :)
[05:49] <Zac1> I have flash installed such as for YouTube and Myspace things and i have Mplayer installed, but i cant play quicktime
[05:49] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, but if it's a fresh install, it's almost easier just to do a clean install
[05:49] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, yeah, I know... pity.
[05:50] <Zac1> PLZ!
[05:50] <BHSPitLappy> Another question:  Sometimes my laptop won't turn on the power to the display when I re-open the lid.   Anyone know of the command that will tell it to do so?
[05:50] <eternalswd> BHSPitLappy, of course if windows wasn't able to install anything, it probably wouldn't even boot :p
[05:51] <BHSPitLappy> eternalswd, I'm past needing comparisons to stay happy with linux... been using it for years now.
[05:51] <BHSPitLappy> And I don't need any help disliking windows :)
[05:51] <Zac1> Hey!
[05:52] <Zac1> can anyone tell me how i can watch quicktime videos??
[05:52] <eternalswd> Zac1, have you installed w32codecs?
[05:52] <Zac1> YEs i have
[05:52] <Zac1> I can play wmv and wma formats if thats what you mean. but i need Apple formats
[05:52] <ApocalypticOni> will i be able to read the files off of my windows partition in ubuntu once its intalled?
[05:52] <cdubya> yep
[05:52] <PurpZeY_> Zac1: What are you trying to use to play them?
[05:52] <eternalswd> Zac1, can you open the quicktime streams from the commandline, like mplayer http://www.somesite.com/somemovie.mov
[05:52] <cdubya> ApocalypticOni, yep
[05:53] <blackhole> I want to install the packages for development like g++ gcc and etc. Which packages should i install
[05:53] <essenceofchaos> Hey all. Can anyone help me out with a problem? When i play any kind of video i can only see playback on about 1/4 the size of the screen. if the window is bigger than that the rest gets cropped out
[05:53] <Flannel> blackhole: build-essential
[05:53] <BHSPitLappy> essenceofchaos, tried more than one media player?
[05:53] <Zac1> but what about this for example
[05:53] <ApocalypticOni> cool, thanks
[05:53] <cdubya> np
[05:53] <emi> ji
[05:53] <emi> hi
[05:53] <blackhole> Flannel, Is that a command i should execute?
[05:54] <essenceofchaos> Yea on xine it works fine but not all formats run there
[05:54] <Flannel> blackhole: no, that's a package you should install
[05:54] <cdubya> blackhole, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:54] <eternalswd> essenceofchaos, what are you using to play it?
[05:54] <Zac1> http://www.apple.com/macbook/frontrow.html
[05:54] <blackhole> okay.
[05:54] <essenceofchaos> vlc and totem have the problem
[05:54] <Zac1> eternalswd:
[05:55] <eternalswd> Zac1, looks like they require their proprietary software to access the videos
[05:55] <Zac1> eternalswd:... ok so what can i do about that?
[05:55] <essenceofchaos> Ah nevermind for some reason it's wrking now.  oops. ok thanks all
[05:55] <blackhole> cdubya, is there a package for QT 4.2.2
[05:55] <blackhole> ?
[05:56] <eternalswd> Zac1, complain to apple?  not much you can do
[05:56] <Zac1> :(
[05:56] <blackhole> and mysql?
[05:56] <Zac1> thanks
[05:56] <greyhat> hi
[05:57] <cdubya> blackhole, just a sec
[05:57] <eternalswd> PurpZeY, the problem wasn't playing quicktime files, the problem was that particular page required Quicktime 7 just to access the videos
[05:57] <blackhole> sure
[05:57] <BHSPitLappy> I have more success playing quicktime than most other online formats in linux
[05:57] <PurpZeY_> eternalswd: Got it.
[05:57] <wit_273> I have a Toshiba Tecra A8 that the sound will not work on the built in speakers when running Feisty, but will work with external speakers.  The speakers do work in Windows
[05:57] <wit_273> Has anyone else ran into that problem?
[05:57] <cdubya> blackhole, looks like lots of qt4 stuff when I searched
[05:57] <blackhole> okay
[05:58] <emi> when i try to boot i cant and after 3 minutes it says : can't access tty; job control turned off (initramfs)
[05:58] <cdubya> blackhole, you have multiverse and universe repos enabled?
[05:58] <eternalswd> wit_273, if you've got built-in and external, you probably need to change which device is controlling volume
[05:58] <blackhole> cbudya, nope how can i do so.
[05:58] <blackhole> cdubya,
[05:58] <milllmannn> where is the apache httpd.conf file located when installed from apt-get?
[05:59] <greyhat> hola tupa
[05:59] <cdubya> blackhole, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[05:59] <wit_273> I have enabled both speakers and headphone jack (which is what you use for external speakers)
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> ok I can't connect to my primary wifi network
[05:59] <blackhole> Yes its there...
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> I can connect to anything but it
[05:59] <eternalswd> milllmannn, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[05:59] <cdubya> blackhole, then go to Settings > Repositories
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> all my other stuff can connect but not me
[05:59] <blackhole> Done
[05:59] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, is it encrypted?
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> this linux laptop cannot connect over wifi to my home network
[06:00] <Death_Sargent> other encrypted netoworks are detected
[06:00] <Death_Sargent> and I have been able to connect before
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, then on the first tab for Ubuntu software, make sure that universe and multiverse repos are ticked
[06:00] <blackhole> Okay.
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, close window, and reload
[06:00] <blackhole> okay.
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, then search for qt :)
[06:01] <Death_Sargent> eteralswd: did you catch that
[06:01] <Flannel> milllmannn: What are you trying to configure?  Ubuntu does it's apache the debian way.  So there is no monolithic config file anywhere (but they're all in /etc/apache2).  Ubuntu doesn't use httpd.conf, for instance.
[06:01] <milllmannn> im configuring it to use serve ruby content
[06:01] <eternalswd> wit_273, the volume for your headphone jack is probably PCM in alsamixer, open up alsamixer from the terminal and make sure other stuff isn't muted.  The bars would have and MM on them if muted
[06:01] <tupa> greyhat, hey, what up?
[06:01] <blackhole> cdubya, Is there some more tools i would need for development, i mean basic development tools which you suggest i should install with build-essentials
[06:01] <totto> any one got a clue how i can get my wire less netvork to work :S
[06:02] <Flannel> milllmannn: Did you install apache2-mod-ruby?  That should be it.
[06:02] <milllmannn> i set it up from the source last night instead of using apt-get install and i had some intermittent problems
[06:02] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, so it used to work, but now it doesn't?  did this happen after a distro upgrade?  after a kernel upgrade?
[06:02] <cdubya> blackhole, what are you looking to develop in?
[06:02] <greyhat> tupa /join #unixmexico :)
[06:02] <blackhole> cdubya, QT and MySql
[06:02] <wit_273> eternalswd, I have checked that mulitple times nothing is muted and all volumes are maxed
[06:02] <milllmannn> well, does apache2-mod-ruby use mongrell cluster?
[06:02] <cdubya> blackhole, ok....
[06:02] <Flannel> milllmannn: I have no idea
[06:02] <Death_Sargent> enternalswd: just eye-candy and video driver upgrade nothing but kernel headers
[06:02] <Death_Sargent> eteralswd: no full kernel change
[06:03] <cdubya> blackhole, I've not used it, but I know there's a qt designer out there for that kind of stuff......
[06:03] <saxartist> mIRC sucks...
[06:03] <milllmannn> ok, then i guess i will try that if this doesnt work...
[06:03] <saxartist> anyway
[06:03] <saxartist> haha
[06:03] <eternalswd> wit_273, try asking in #alsa
[06:03] <cdubya> blackhole, are you wanting to design an interface to mysql or something?
[06:03] <saxartist> I'm trying to fix my install.... I just changed resolutions in KDE Settings and now my login screen won't appear and won't boot
[06:03] <saxartist> recovery mode didn't work
[06:03] <saxartist> any suggestions?
[06:03] <blackhole> yes similar kinda i knw what QT have i just was asking do i need any more tools like gcc and etc
[06:04] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, don't know what to tell you, there shouldn't be any reason it would suddenly stop working :(
[06:04] <Flannel> saxartist: ctrl-alt-f1 doesn't get you to a TTY?
[06:04] <wit_273> eternalswd, thanks I will go there.  I have tried Googling it, and Ubuntu Forums with no luck.  Lot's of ideas but nothing worked.
[06:04] <saxartist> it does, but I don't know how to change the default Manager Flannel
[06:04] <cdubya> blackhole, don't think so other than what you've got in build-essential, but then, I'm not into qt......
[06:04] <totto> i hawe a dwl-ag550 wireless network kard that umbuntu cant find can sombody place helpe me ?
[06:04] <blackhole> Okay
[06:04] <saxartist> it said KDE wasn't starting because it wasn't default, but it is, and GDM didnt' start either Flannel
[06:04] <gerro> saxartist: yeah read what the error it says states, you probably edited it not using a plaintext editor, if your writing program takes more than instantly to load up it will not do
[06:05] <saxartist> gerro: I used the KDE settings menu
[06:06] <saxartist> I don't know how to change the default manager from command line
[06:06] <gerro> saxartist: ah well can't help you there because I don't use kde
[06:06] <pyrak> can i have some suggestions for linux advantages over windows to help convert a friend?
[06:06] <gerro> saxartist: I would just edit xorg.conf
[06:06] <saxartist> ah...
[06:06] <gerro> pyrak yeah
[06:06] <saxartist> that's an idea... I need to try thinking... ;)
[06:06] <Flannel> saxartist: dpkg-reconfigure --config kdm, I believe.
[06:06] <arooni> hey folks
[06:06] <eternalswd> blackhole, you may need some development packages specific to the project like libqt3-mt-dev, etc
[06:06] <Flannel> er, --configure
[06:06] <arooni> i have a bluetake usb device.... and i want to get it working with ubuntu 7.04.  any tips to how?
[06:07] <blackhole> eternalswd, What i need to download for that
[06:07] <saxartist> arooni:  bluetake?
[06:07] <saxartist> Flannel: thanks
[06:07] <totto> i hawe a dwl-ag550 wireless network kard that umbuntu cant find can sombody place helpe me ?
[06:07] <eternalswd> blackhole, what are you trying to compile?  or are you starting your own project?
[06:07] <arooni> saxartist: thats the name of the usb bluetooth adapater  (brandname)
[06:07] <blackhole> eternalswd, I am trying to compile a app which uses QT 4.2.2 and Mysql Dbase
[06:07] <eternalswd> !wifi | totto
[06:07] <ubotu> totto: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:08] <eternalswd> blackhole, do you have the name of the program so I can look it up?
[06:08] <blackhole> eternalswd, Its mine dude not open source
[06:09] <blackhole> eternalswd, I have developed it earlier using some other linux distor
[06:10] <eternalswd> blackhole, you probably need libqt4-dev and libmysqlclient15-dev at least, and maybe some more, but that's a starting point
[06:10] <blackhole> okay
[06:11] <blackhole> I also need mysql servere
[06:11] <blackhole> which package is it?
[06:11] <eternalswd> blackhole, mysql-server-5.0
[06:11] <Nutubuntu> blackhole,  I think it's mysql-server ... search for 'mysql' in aptitude or Synaptic and you should find it
[06:11] <blackhole> yup got it
[06:12] <pyrak> gerro, please enlighten me :)
[06:12] <krazye> is there a way I can give a program permissions to access a disk drive?
[06:13] <krazye> lol it sounds like a strange or stupid question
[06:14] <blackhole> which is package for ncurses
[06:14] <blackhole> ?
[06:15] <arooni> i have a bluetooth usb adapter i want to use in ubuntu 7.04.... any suggestions on how to hook it up?
[06:15] <pike__> !bluetooth | arooni
[06:15] <ubotu> arooni: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[06:15] <arooni> great!
[06:16] <krazye> anyone good with vm?
[06:16] <Torahteen> I'm trying to run VirtualBox, but it says that the group vboxusers doesn't have write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv
[06:16] <Torahteen> How do I give it permissoin?
[06:16] <Torahteen> ion*
[06:17] <ant-> !chmod
[06:17] <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
[06:17] <wgre0111> I am having a hard time getting my web cam to work.
[06:17] <robby> Why?  Why does Linux have to be so awsome!?!?
[06:17] <robby> lol
[06:18] <MajorPayne> !test
[06:18] <ubotu> failed
[06:18] <arooni> is there a UI for any of these bluetooth management things?
[06:18] <wgre0111> any ideas on getting my web cam to work?
[06:18] <krazye> Torahteen: try sudo -s -H in your terminal then try adding it
[06:18] <robby> botsnack
[06:18] <InVerSioN|LP> hey
[06:19] <krazye> Torahteen: it's just a guess, I don't know if it will work
[06:19] <InVerSioN|LP> i know it's not exactly on topic here, but i was wondering if there were any tech-related professionals who would be willing to help me with my resume?
[06:19] <botsnack> arooni: there are gnome and kde front end tools
[06:19] <saxartist> yay! thanks Flannel, I fixed it
[06:19] <saxartist> it was xorg.conf
[06:19] <arooni> botsnack: got any suggestions for the gnome ones?
[06:20] <Torahteen> Thanks guys :)
[06:20] <pike_> arooni: sorry im not too familiar with bluetooth stuff
[06:20] <krazye> np
[06:21] <pike_> arooni: an apt-cache search bluetooth  should give you an idea
[06:21] <[SKiZ] > can anyone shed some light on why my D-Link DWL-G510 Wifi card does not get detected after installation despite being on the HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards list
[06:21] <krazye> only if I can get it to work in vmware
[06:21] <InVerSioN|LP> would anybody mind helping me with my resume?
[06:21] <ce_nie> jakarta
[06:21] <eck> InVerSioN|LP: do you have it posted somewhere?
[06:21] <wgre0111> how can i set a a virtual machine with my windows partition?? is it free?
[06:21] <ce_nie> tttt
[06:22] <wgre0111> i wouldnt mind helping
[06:23] <valehru> Hey guys
[06:23] <cdubya> there any way to setup vmplayer to work with an existing winders partition?
[06:23] <Samad> hello all, is there any easy way to give myself full read/write permission for everything in Feisty?
[06:23] <krazye> wgre0111: you need a conversion tool
[06:23] <valehru> My Graphics card is running at 97 degrees celcius.  Any way I can bring that down, its not doing anything intensive that I can tell, I just started up the machine.
[06:23] <pike_> Samad: sudo -i :)
[06:24] <Samad> pike: just run "sudo -i"?
[06:24] <krazye> cdubya: you need a virtual image to use vmplayer
[06:24] <pike_> valehru: id verify that in the bios. ive often gotten inaccurate numbers in linux
[06:24] <wgre0111> how do you make a virtual image?
[06:24] <MajorPayne> Samad: That will give you a root terminal.
[06:24] <Flannel> Samad: You don't want to give yourself full read/write permissions.  That's a bad thing.
[06:24] <valehru> pike_, well my computer regularly shuts down due to reaching 100 degrees....its nuts!
[06:24] <cdubya> krazye, yeah, I read a little about it, just didn't get to see if you could do it with an existing partition or not. Guess I'll nix that
[06:25] <Samad> Flannel: why is this?
[06:25] <pike_> Samad: what are you trying to do?  if you need to copy and move files in gui you can launch an app with sudo like ... gksu nautilus&
[06:25] <taxman> compiz works great on this Dell on Gutsy tribe 2 for what it's worth
[06:25] <krazye> cdubya; you can try to do what Im doing
[06:25] <Flannel> Samad: Because permissions are good.  Having a user that can't accidentally delete the entire system is a good thing.
[06:25] <pike_> valehru: well thats bad :) i have mine set to shutdown at 70 cel i think
[06:25] <segagman> hello my fello ubuntu people
[06:25] <valehru> pike_, tell me about it.
[06:25] <Samad> pike: yes I just want to avoid having to running commands in terminal to copy files
[06:25] <cdubya> krazye, which is?
[06:25] <bruenig> !find libpanelapplet
[06:25] <ubotu> Found: libpanelappletmm-2.6-1c2, libpanelappletmm-2.6-dev
[06:25] <krazye> cdubya: Im trying to make a virtual image of xp to be able to access my xp partition
[06:25] <Samad> Flannel: gotcha ;)
[06:26] <pike_> Samad: the gksu nautilus  is your best option it will launch your file manager
[06:26] <Flannel> Samad: you can use `gksu nautilus` like pike_ said.  But once you're done doing admin stuff, you should close that nautilus window.
[06:26] <krazye> cdubya: Im having difficulty though, it wont allow my permissions to add the partition to my virtual machine
[06:26] <taxman> wgre0111: I may have missed, what image are you trying to make?
[06:26] <darwin81> I'm thinking about compiling my kernel from scratch for better performance. So far the best guide seems to be: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158&highlight=Master+Kernel . Does anyone know of a better guide or can give me an tips?
[06:26] <Samad> Flannel; Pike: thank you both
[06:26] <cdubya> krazye, what are you trying to do?
[06:26] <Samad> great help
[06:27] <cdubya> ah, nm
[06:27] <krazye> cdubya: Im trying to make a virtual image of xp to be able to access my xp partition
[06:27] <Flannel> !kernel | darwin81
[06:27] <cdubya> krazye, how are you going about that?
[06:27] <ubotu> darwin81: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:27] <wgre0111> i am trying to do the same... how do you make a virtual image for xp?
[06:27] <eck> darwin81: fyi you aren't going to get significantly better performance (maybe in a server scenario...)
[06:27] <krazye> cdubya: vmware workstation has the option of adding a hard drive support to an existing image
[06:27] <taxman> darwin81: you do know to never submit bug reports based on your custom kernel right?
[06:27] <MajorPayne> darwin81: IMHO and my tip is it is not worth it.
[06:28] <MajorPayne> darwin81: Besides that you really need to know your hardware.
[06:28] <pike_> wgre0111: best to google for some website thatll build the vmx file for ya. i prefer vmware-server which is free at their website though. or qemu
[06:28] <zango> how do i install emacs 22?
[06:29] <firelord901> Can someone help me with a problem. Whenever I boot I always need to turn off my wifi or else it will take a long time.
[06:29] <krazye> wgre0111: install vmware-server and go through the defaults, with the exception to use NAT. Insert XP CD to you cd drive. Power the Virtual machine... follow the xp install instructions
[06:29] <Samad> how do I run this gksu nautilus?
[06:29] <eck> firelord901: try disabling it in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:29] <Flannel> Samad: in a terminal, or the run dialog (alt-f2)
[06:30] <eck> and just let NM take care of bringing it up once you log on
[06:30] <darwin81> I just want to do it to learn something new. I can always boot to the old kernel right?
[06:30] <krazye> wgre0111: vmware palyer doesnt allow you to create or manage virtual disks, you will need vmware-server to do this
[06:30] <wgre0111> I already have xp though...
[06:30] <Samad> Flannel: where's the file located?
[06:30] <Vlet> Does anything in particular need to be done in order to take full advantage of a dual core intel chip with a mysql server running on ubuntu, or will it just happen?
[06:30] <robby> is there a way to change the way the prompt look in terminal?
[06:30] <MajorPayne> darwin81: As long as you do not remove it.
[06:30] <zango> whats the best way to install emacs 22? I don't want to wait till it's in the repo
[06:31] <krazye> wgre0111: if you have windows already, then you can use a conversion tool to convert it to a virtual disk image
[06:31] <eck> zango: compile it. i'm sure there are instructions on the emacs web site
[06:31] <cdubya> krazye, how do you do that?
[06:31] <pike_> Vlet: just make sure the kernel you have supports smp
[06:31] <firelord901> eck: where would I find that?
[06:31] <wgre0111> would that affect my programs on there? i have alot of win development tools..
[06:31] <cdubya> because I've already got the xp partition intact
[06:31] <pike_> Vlet: the generic one does
[06:31] <eck> firelord901: the file is /etc/network/interfaces
[06:31] <Flannel> Samad: What file?  just alt-f2 then type 'gksu nautilus'
[06:31] <wgre0111> that dont want to lose atm...
[06:31] <krazye> wgre0111: http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/
[06:31] <The_Jesus> can someone help me with isntalling a 64 bit ubuntu?
[06:32] <Vlet> pike_: including mysql?
[06:32] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  why do you need the 64bit version?
[06:32] <segagman>  man i love this hole thing but im new and dont know how 2 "install" a program i have down loaded or conpile ect   is there a step by stem book any one can sujest? if i when i learn how to do it i might conpleatly cross over .. UBUNTU is catiching on but it need suport for linux n00bz  "intalling radom dl pro grams i think is a big factor in converting people to ubuntu linux... but any got a book i could get off amazone?
[06:32] <pike_> segagman: ubuntu as with other debian distros makes having to compile very rare
[06:32] <wgre0111> segagman are you using fiesty?
[06:32] <pike_> !synaptic | segagman
[06:32] <ubotu> segagman: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:32] <Samad> Flannel: Thanks a ton, I'm a total greeny if you couldn't tell
[06:32] <dr_willis> segagman,  i dissagree... iinstalling some  programs you ' download' is somthing ive RARELY needed to do under ubuntu.
[06:32] <The_Jesus> i need help witht he 64bit version because thats te computer i built
[06:32] <krazye> wgre0111: i dont suggest you use this though. I hear people have many problems with this. its best to create a virtual disk from scratch
[06:32] <The_Jesus>  a 64 bit computer with 4 gigs of ram
[06:32] <MajorPayne> robby: You can change the PS1 enviroment varable in .bashrc.
[06:33] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  with 4gb you MIGHT need 64bit.. but   you may have much better luck with the 32bit disrtos.
[06:33] <darwin81> MajorPayne, Also, do you know of a good guide or have any tips to improve performance?
[06:33] <taxman> robby: in general, google for bash shell prompt
[06:33] <firelord901> eck: what would I edit in there?
[06:33] <eck> firelord901: just disable everything other than lo
[06:33] <MajorPayne> darwin81: You will get hardly any performance increase.
[06:33] <taxman> you'll see all you ever wanted to know about how to change the prompt
[06:33] <eck> firelord901: i'll pastebin mine for reference
[06:34] <segagman> sauerbraten i grab it but i just dont understand how to get it to run
[06:34] <eck> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28924/
[06:34] <robby> K, is the bash shell and terminal the same thing?
[06:34] <eck> robby: no, the shell is the program that runs in the terminal
[06:34] <taxman> robby: it's the default shel the terminal uses
[06:34] <MajorPayne> robby: A bash shell runs in a terminal.
[06:34] <wgre0111> krazye hmmmm.... well can I have two different xp and this ubuntu on my machine?
[06:34] <taxman> so sort of is your answer
[06:34] <robby> oh i see
[06:34] <robby> cool
[06:34] <robby> thanks
[06:34] <segagman> stuff  thats not in the add remove or the symnapti thing
[06:35] <SeveredCross> Up to 4 GB of RAM is supported by 32-bit kernels, so you're fine.
[06:35] <SeveredCross> At least IIRC anyway.
[06:35] <krazye> wgre0111: you can have as many xps your computer can handle
[06:35] <eck> i think you need to enable highmem support in your kernel to get more than 3 GB visible ram
[06:35] <wgre0111> segagman most programs ive seen come with make files or autorun
[06:35] <SeveredCross> I think that it's enabled in the default kernel.
[06:35] <taxman> segagman: for apps that aren't alredy ported to Ubuntu (ie in synaptic) it's not always straightforward
[06:35] <wgre0111> and you run programs with ./####Name#### in terminal
[06:35] <SeveredCross> I think support for up to 4 GB of memory is the default kernel option.
[06:36] <astomper> How do I play an ISO image?
[06:36] <darwin81> MajorPayne, I know that compiling my own kernel is probably to risky just for a slight performance increase. I was just wondering if you had any other tips for performance.
[06:36] <The_Jesus> the 64 bit computer i built,needs the ubuntu 7.04 which i have however i get either a greys creen with a pointer, or a black screen with an ex. for the mouse
[06:36] <SeveredCross> Anything more than 4 and you're going to need a new kernel.
[06:36] <pike_> The_Jesus: typically the only reason you NEED 64 bit is for a single process to address more than 4 gigs ram. the 32 bit kernel can still use the ram just not one single process which if you think about it.. unless youre running gnome you should be fine ;p
[06:36] <MajorPayne> darwin81: I don't.  Sorry.
[06:36] <wgre0111> krazye would a new installation delete my current partitions though?
[06:36] <The_Jesus> but since i have the 64bit version to ubuntu
[06:36] <The_Jesus> what does that mean
[06:36] <taxman> astomper: mount it as an image and then run it with whatever app you want to use
[06:37] <The_Jesus> yay i killed it!
[06:37] <astomper> I remember a guide now that you say that, thx taxman
[06:37] <pike_> The_Jesus: it will work fine and maybe be a little faster but you might have some problems with flash plugin stuff like that
[06:37] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  sounds like X isent gettitng setup right. May want to try the alternative install cd's
[06:37] <segagman> i got a lot of thing i like to try but thenn its stops with the high learning curve that linux is i will get there but i want to move faster ...you know like tabed browing did for us all
[06:37] <The_Jesus> is anyone in ehre,
[06:37] <taxman> np
[06:37] <The_Jesus> can i  pm you guys?
[06:37] <The_Jesus> and talk to you in there?
[06:37] <The_Jesus> its ahrd to find the stuff in here properly
[06:38] <segagman> i want to understand how to get these programs to work were they are on my box ect
[06:38] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  thats why we say your NAME at the start of the lines.
[06:38] <taxman> The_Jesus: please see the topic and the FAQ on how to ask questions
[06:38] <The_Jesus> yeah, still..when ti get spushy there..it jsut ah...get shard to follow around
[06:38] <dr_willis> Gee - i must be leet.. i can follow it in here.. and on 4 other channels. :)
[06:38] <segagman> LINUX 4 n00bz is there a book called that i need it and want it
[06:38] <The_Jesus> alright, soy our saying,e vne thoguh i built a 64 bit computer- mothebroard, processor, ram, and video card
[06:39] <segagman> ] ha
[06:39] <The_Jesus> i should run the 32bit version?
[06:39] <Nutubuntu> The_Jesus, you're probably more likely to run into an issue addressing HD space with a 64 bit kernel, than you are addressing RAM with a 32 bit kernel. The 64 bit kernel has a 1TB limit on partition size; the 32 bit doesn't ... strange but true.
[06:39] <dr_willis> segagman,  problem is the noobs dont want to spend time reading. :)
[06:39] <The_Jesus> i have a 360gig hard drive im ntow orried
[06:39] <taxman> segagman: short version is you compile them or install them and figure out where they put the executable
[06:39] <person51090> I just installed linux as a dual boot. When I try to boot it, I get a black screen that says "GRUB _" and the cursor blinks. Any suggestions??
[06:39] <jplastin> What's the best way to automount an NFS share on startup?
[06:39] <krazye> wgre0111: A new installation will delete your current partition if you choose to reformat it
[06:39] <Flannel> segagman: help.ubuntu.com has a lot of good stuffs.
[06:39] <milllmannn> has anyone set up apache to serve rails content using mongrell cluster?
[06:39] <RoC_MasterMind> jplastin, Ubuntuguide.org
[06:39] <segagman> well im a linux n00b 2.0.4 betta that like to read
[06:40] <taxman> segagman: the README file that comes with the app is a good place to start
[06:40] <segagman> books
[06:40] <eck> jplastin: put it in your fstab
[06:40] <jplastin> eck: I did but it didn't work
[06:40] <krazye> wgre0111: A virtalization creates an image file on your hard drive. If you delete that, than your virtualization is gone
[06:40] <eck> jplastin: you must have put the entry in incorrectly or something
[06:40] <The_Jesus> so,
[06:40] <wgre0111> ohh sooo
[06:40] <eck> can you mount it by name after booting up?
[06:41] <segagman> ok ok ill try harder linuxman this is why i like it i just keep learning
[06:41] <wgre0111> krazye so its not even really changing or formating my partition at all...
[06:41] <taxman> milllmannn: no clue at all, but it's usually better to ask a specific question. For something that specific perhaps no one that's reading will know
[06:41] <The_Jesus> errrr.. i can run the 32bit version properly without any problems, butt he 64bit veriion is bigger than my hard drive? is that it?
[06:41] <jplastin> eck: yes
[06:41] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  NO.. there is a limit on the size of a single filesystem. that affetcts the 64bit disrtos.. Unless you know you NEED 64bit.. stick with 32bit
[06:41] <The_Jesus> i know some people that might have milllmannn but i cant get ahold of them
[06:41] <person51090> I just installed linux as a dual boot. When I try to boot it, I get a black screen that says "GRUB _" and the cursor blinks. Any suggestions??
[06:42] <milllmannn> I need help on a good resource for setting up apache to use mongrell on ubuntu 6
[06:42] <dr_willis> !fixgrub
[06:42] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:42] <eck> jplastin: there should be some sort of netmount service that starts up as a boot service, i guess it's not enabled by default?
[06:42] <milllmannn> ive been told to do things like backport and stuff, but it seems overly complicated
[06:42] <taxman> milllmannn: google apache, mongrell, ubuntu? :)
[06:42] <krazye> wgre0111: Correct; all vmware does is creates and uses virtual images, .vmx files on your existing hard drive.
[06:43] <Yorii> Is it possible to run Compiz or Beryl with fglrx drivers on an ATI card?
[06:43] <Yorii> since it doesn't support Composite Extension?
[06:43] <wgre0111> krazye so this conversion actually kinda makes a copy of existing xp?
[06:44] <milllmannn> taxman: I havent been able to find a good concise resource for ubuntu 6 that doesnt involve comiling from source
[06:44] <The_Jesus> so as for the TB thing, thats as big as ubuntu CAN get. not that it is that big right?
[06:44] <jorgerosa> hello all
[06:44] <milllmannn> how do i find out the version of the system i am running?
[06:44] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  just forget about the TB thing.. it dosent apply to you. :)
[06:44] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  its how big A filesystem Can get.
[06:44] <eck> milllmannn: lsb_release -a
[06:45] <taxman> Yorii: try it? :) the latest 7.10 alpha has compiz turned on by default. But reallize it's an Alpha and don't ask questions in here :)
[06:45] <krazye> wgre0111: Yes; it "copies" your existing hard drive partition into a virtual image: .vmx
[06:45] <The_Jesus> alright
[06:45] <jorgerosa> any C++ coders here that wanna help in a open-source game project?
[06:45] <milllmannn> cool thanks!
[06:45] <The_Jesus> well sicne the comptuer i want to run ubuntu on
[06:45] <The_Jesus> is not not connected to my network
[06:45] <The_Jesus> where can i redownload the file?
[06:45] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  what file?
[06:45] <The_Jesus> i ahd my instructor get it for me, and i dont want to ahve to go through some bs shit form where i have to give them my lifestory
[06:45] <The_Jesus> ubuntu
[06:45] <The_Jesus> the 64 bit version
[06:46] <Yorii> taxman: well I'm not running 7.10 :P and it doesn't even start
[06:46] <The_Jesus> i ahve a copy of the regular/32bit
[06:46] <wgre0111> krazye:  can you recommend a conversion utility?  id be willing to give it a shot even though people report troubles?
[06:46] <Yorii> Checking for XComposite extension               : failed
[06:46] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  i think you have totally lost everyone now.
[06:46] <Yorii> turning it on makes it crash and I have to restart X
[06:46] <sirus> IPV6 ROCKS!
[06:46] <MajorPayne> !language | The_Jesus
[06:46] <ubotu> The_Jesus: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:46] <taxman> Yorii: then I think the answer is no for now :)
[06:47] <Yorii> I'll go find some other drivers :<
[06:47] <krazye> wgre0111: The only one I know and can recommend is http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/
[06:47] <jorgerosa> any C++ coders here that wanna help in a open-source game project? link: http://www.via2b.com/iteam/
[06:47] <krazye> wgre0111: it's free
[06:47] <wgre0111> krazye: hmmm sounds NOT free?
[06:47] <wgre0111> o :P
[06:47] <wgre0111> read my mind :)
[06:47] <The_Jesus>  sorry, forgto about langauge.  i want to download a file of the 64bit version of ubuntu, to install on ym 64 bit computer, which is not connected to anything. where can i go to download that file without filling out ten dozen forms?
[06:48] <wgre0111> would I have to be in xp for the converter?
[06:48] <krazye> wgre0111: says so on their website
[06:48] <eck> The_Jesus: ftp.ubuntu.com
[06:48] <The_Jesus> my computer which i wish to install ubuntu on, is on the other side of the room, with no wires connected to it.
[06:48] <The_Jesus> thankyou
[06:48] <krazye> wgre0111: not sure, I've never used the converter before.
[06:49] <wgre0111> krazye so how exactly does vmware work?
[06:50] <MajorPayne> !vmware | wgre0111
[06:50] <ubotu> wgre0111: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[06:50] <krazye> wgre0111: I don't know the technicalities. Try searching wikipedia "vmware".
[06:51] <wgre0111> easyvmx is the vmserver?
[06:51] <sirus> is there a fakeident of ubuntu?
[06:52] <krazye> wgre0111: I don't know. The only two virtual machines I know of are virtualbox and vmware.
[06:52] <dr_willis> qemu is a distant third
[06:52] <dr_willis> vmware-server is what i use
[06:52] <ianmcorvidae> There are a few other obscure ones, but yeah.
[06:53] <krazye> I like vmware-server, however the lack of usb support ;\
[06:53] <dr_willis> dosbox :)
[06:53] <wgre0111> do you use it your self?
[06:53] <dr_willis> krazye,  lack? never noticed it lacking.
[06:53] <sirus> anyone
[06:53] <sirus> ?
[06:53] <Nutubuntu> dr_willis,  distant third in popularity? or functionality? I've been thinking of putting up a virtual winbox
[06:53] <dr_willis> Nutubuntu,  Ive had a lot ofissues with Virtualbox
[06:54] <krazye> My vmware-server says I cant add more usb devices because it cant handle more than 4
[06:54] <dr_willis> Nutubuntu,  Vmware-server works great for me.
[06:54] <segagman> PEACE OUT NELSON MANDELLA
[06:54] <Nutubuntu> t/y dr_willis
[06:54] <dr_willis> i tend to use them to test out livecd's Virtualbox seems to have issues in that area
[06:54] <wgre0111> where to get vmserver?
[06:55] <Nutubuntu> I was thinking of kvm/qemu or vmware, one or the other
[06:55] <ingo_> how can i get information about the gnome-themes ?
[06:55] <krazye> I basically use mine to get my itunes to work while im in ubuntu
[06:55] <krazye> stupid drm
[06:55] <dr_willis> qemu is not in the same league as vmware. :)
[06:55] <Nutubuntu> t/y - dr_willis - that's the decider for me then :)
[06:55] <dr_willis> it all depends on what you wan tto do. run XP? dont bet on qemu then
[06:56] <ingo_> hi all! how can i get information about the gnome-themes ?
[06:56] <krazye> qemu, whats that? Freeware?
[06:56] <ianmcorvidae> QEMU's good when you want it to be small; for example the DSL embedded version.
[06:56] <sirus> Or do i just use oidentd?
[06:56] <ianmcorvidae> But it's rather basic.
[06:56] <wgre0111> i need that....
[06:57] <wgre0111> krazye: I have a zune and this vmware would be great
[06:57] <krazye> zune not compatable with Rythmebox?
[06:58] <wgre0111> never tried... let you know now
[06:58] <krazye> dr willas maybe you can help me out
[06:58] <inayet> Can anyone help me with making my Creative SoundBlaster external sound card work? when I click on systems--> preferences--> sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise. However when I attempt to listen to audio through for example youtube.com or internet radio station I cannot hear any sound. Please help thank you.
[06:58] <pike_> wgre0111: you need to register at vmware's website. (its free) and they email you a key to use with vmware-server which is vastly better than vmware-player
[06:58] <dr_willis> krazye,  huh? :)
[06:59] <dr_willis> inayet,  try playing a game? could  a flash sound issue.. not a sound card issue.
[06:59] <krazye> how do I grant vmware access to a hard disk I want it to use in the virtualization
[06:59] <ingo_> is there a possiblility to mix icon's from different gnome-themes?
[06:59] <dr_willis> pike_,  heck - they dont even email it to ya.. (well they do) they give it to right then.
[06:59] <wgre0111> thanks...
[06:59] <krazye> it gives me a permission denied when i try to access it
[06:59] <jplastin> Where can I add a command to run every time I boot up?
[06:59] <jplastin> as root
[06:59] <oksana> Is there a way to change default keybindings/accelerators in programs like gedit? (for instance Ctrl-f opens the search/find dialog; is there a way to remap the keybinding to another key instead of using Ctrl-f?)
[06:59] <dr_willis> jplastin,  depends on the command  /etc/rc.local is good for most
[07:00] <wgre0111> i have that permission denied all the time with alot of programs....
[07:00] <jplastin> dr_willis: the command is "mount -a"
[07:00] <Nutubuntu> oksana, in some programs yes (bluefish, for instance, or jEdit - I think) but IDK about gedit
[07:00] <ingo_> is there a possiblility to mix icon's between different gnome-themes?
[07:00] <oksana> ingo_: you can manually change the icons by right clicking the icon you want to change, choose properties, then click on the icon picture and find the folder with the icon you want to switch it with.
[07:00] <dr_willis> jplastin,  that should be getting done autopmaticially anyway.. You may be having some bigger issues.
[07:01] <hacosta> i have a strange problem, i have a usb keyboard connected to my laptop, and it doesn't work until i press a key on my laptop
[07:01] <krazye> willas, can I send you a pm?
[07:01] <dr_willis> jplastin,  mount -a , just has mount scan the fstab and automount the needed filesystems.
[07:01] <jon__> how can I change the resolution of gdm? when I boot, it too big and i can go to different parts by dragging the mouse around...
[07:01] <jplastin> dr_willis: I need it because my NFS entry isn't working.  If I run mount -a after boot the NFS partition is mounted, but otherwise it isn't... probably incorrect order of loading NFS thing at boot.
[07:01] <jplastin> All my other fstab entries work.
[07:02] <dr_willis> krazye,  letting vmware access a hard DISK requires manual tweaking/editiong of the vmware config files.. ive seen articals on it.. but   never done so. I share the drives with samba to let the vm machine get to them
[07:02] <ingo_> oksana: which icon-folder should i choose ?
[07:02] <inayet> dr_willis: I can play games that I downloaded from ubuntu without any sound.
[07:02] <dr_willis> jplastin,  now that makes sence.  netwroking is loading after..
[07:02] <dr_willis> jplastin,  toss that mount -a in the /etc/rc.local then :)
[07:02] <jplastin> dr_willis: Can I fix that so I don't have to put "mount -a" in rc.local?
[07:02] <mneptok> jon__: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:02] <jon__> it's really annoying, so I'd like suggestions
[07:02] <jplastin> haha ok
[07:03] <dr_willis> jplastin,  i dont use nfs much if at all.. so not sure what the deal is with it.
[07:03] <ctothej> how do I scroll through a long list in a terminal?
[07:03] <pike_> ctothej: you can pipe it to less or more like  ls | less
[07:03] <krazye> dr_willis, good Idea. maybe I will use samba to let my vm machine to get them as well. Can you recommend me a tutorial to do that?
[07:03] <RobFromMO> yeah, what pike said...
[07:03] <Nutubuntu> dr_willis, in vmware - do you need to give the virtual machine a partition of its own, or does it do its own fs inside itself (inside the file that contains the vm)?
[07:03] <SeveredCross> bojan
[07:03] <SeveredCross> Oops.
[07:03] <SeveredCross> Heh.
[07:03] <dr_willis> !samba | krazye
[07:03] <ubotu> krazye: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT

[07:04] <ctothej> pike_: thanks, what is the difference between the two?
[07:05] <jon__> mneptok: how many kb should I give it?
[07:05] <mneptok> jon__: 0
[07:05] <pike_> see the summery line of man less and man more.    i can never keep em straight one is a little more featurey i think
[07:05] <pike_> ctothej: ah less lets you scroll back up too not just down i guess
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> less is more : )
[07:05] <taylor> Why won't tar -zxvf ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz  work? says it doesnt exist....

[07:06] <The_Jesus> there is a nutubuntu?
[07:06] <The_Jesus> nvm
[07:06] <krazye> dr_willas, is an NTFS partition shareable with samba?
[07:06] <dragonx> hello
[07:06] <dr_willis> krazye,  never tried that. :)
[07:06] <inayet> I am new to linux and would love to get rid of windows, only if I can get my external sound card work with linux, it works with windows.
[07:06] <krazye> doh
[07:07] <wgre0111> I love ubuntu because there is so much help....
[07:07] <dr_willis> krazye,  i dont see why not..
[07:07] <The_Jesus> try WINE
[07:07] <krazye> thats what I need it to do. Im in a duel boot. i want it to share my NTFS partition :)
[07:07] <ctothej> from the man page for more: " Users should realize that less(1) provides more(1)"
[07:07] <wgre0111> this is a real beautiful thing to see....
[07:07] <milllmannn> anyone have a site that explains how to get apache to run at startup?
[07:07] <pike_> wgre0111: sometimes there is too much :)
[07:07] <inayet> whats WINE all about?
[07:08] <wgre0111> heh:)
[07:08] <The_Jesus> WINE si A windows emulator
[07:08] <krazye> !wine
[07:08] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:08] <jon__> mneptok: thnnks
[07:08] <dragonx> i'm trying to open my cdrom drive and i receive a message that says "cannot mount volume, invalid mount option"
[07:08] <sdouble> wine is beautiful
[07:08] <krazye> Wine sucks
[07:08] <dragonx> any ideas on how to fix it?
[07:08] <dragonx> thanks
[07:08] <krazye> I cant get ventrilo to work in wine :(
[07:08] <sdouble> wine has many problems, but it's still beautiful
[07:08] <inayet> Can anyone help me with making my Creative SoundBlaster external sound card work? when I click on systems--> preferences--> sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise. However when I attempt to listen to audio through for example youtube.com or internet radio station I cannot hear any sound
[07:08] <krazye> true dat
[07:09] <pike_> wine is handy. wine+utorrent for instance
[07:09] <sdouble> I can't get a lot of things to work properly in it, but it's almost the same
[07:09] <ctothej> inayet: i had the same problem, it is with the flash plugin settings.
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> I prefer deluge-torrent :)
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> But wine is good for that trick.
[07:09] <sdouble> I actually enjoy ktorrent though I've been a utorrent user for a long time
[07:09] <pike_> ianmcorvidae: c++ vs python. i win :)
[07:09] <Ziggy> Hey, I am having trouble setting my monitors resolution so I can install ubuntu, can anyone help or suggest?
[07:09] <wgre0111> fiesty is a powerful bugger
[07:09] <ctothej> inayet: right click on the flash and go into settings, choose alsa for output.
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> Also, some of the portable programs are good with wine.
[07:09] <taylor> Why won't tar -zxvf ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz  work? says it doesnt exist....
[07:09] <wgre0111> It detected alot of stuff that previous versions didnt...
[07:09] <jeremysan> What is the exact command to gedit the blacklist file?
[07:09] <wgre0111> IE my wireless card
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> pike, I know. I still prefer deluge, lol.
[07:10] <wgre0111> I have a latitude D620
[07:10] <inayet> ctothej--How can I fix this problem; can you please walk me through fixing this problem?
[07:10] <brujoh> taylor, maybe try the file command.. file ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz
[07:10] <inayet> ctothej: where do I find flash ?
[07:11] <wgre0111> other than figuring out this vmware stuff... only other thing that could make me happy is getting my damn web cam to work on here....
[07:11] <dragonx> www.adobe.com
[07:11] <wgre0111> amsn is cool cause I can see others web cam but I cant get mine to work.
[07:11] <jeremysan> how do i edit my blacklist file?
[07:11] <ctothej> inayet: the way i did it was to go to a page that had a flash movie, right click on the movie and go into its settings
[07:11] <Flannel> !flash | inayet
[07:11] <ubotu> inayet: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[07:11] <Zoiks> can someone help me set up shared folders in feisty?
[07:11] <pike_> jeremysan: open an editor using the sudo command.
[07:12] <jeremysan> pike_ how do I do that?
[07:12] <Ziggy> Hey guys I have a question about resolution, I am having a problem installing ubuntu, it will only load to a peach screen (in safe graphics mode). How Can I install when it wont have a right resolution, my monitor allways bugs out.
[07:12] <Shadow6363> Hey, I was just wondering what the recommended widget program is?  I've heard of screenlets and gdesklets, but have no idea which is better.
[07:13] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  i hate them all. :)
[07:13] <Shadow6363> Open to more than just those two also, just haven't heard of any others.
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> adesklets is another, but it's pretty weak.
[07:13] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  opera has similer feature also.. Hate it also. :)
[07:13] <dr_willis> heh
[07:13] <dr_willis> I find them all weak.
[07:13] <pike_> jeremysan: in a terminal sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist or gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[07:13] <dr_willis> Id much perfer panel-applets
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> I use gdesklets to a small extent, but yeah. There are better options :P
[07:13] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, any reason, find myself agreeing with you at times, but figured I'd give them another try
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> I don't have a panel :P
[07:13] <jeremysan> thanks.
[07:14] <Ziggy> Does anyone know how to set monitors proper resolution so I can install ubuntu, it wont load properly without it?
[07:14] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  i keep my apps fullscreened.. dekstop widgets are not seeable.. if they were panel applets. i could see them. :)
[07:14] <wgre0111> (needs to stop preaching) I never thought id get a version of linux to work on my computer
[07:14] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  that simple.
[07:14] <wgre0111> not enough time to figure debian straight
[07:14] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, i too keep them fullscreen, but dont really like any of the default panel applets
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  perhaps if i get my dual monitors set up again some day...
[07:15] <wgre0111> others(wont name) wouldnt install right or detect my wireless card and ndiswhatever wasnt working
[07:15] <pike_> !fixres | Ziggy
[07:15] <ubotu> Ziggy: 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
[07:15] <wgre0111> but along came Ubuntu fiesty......
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  theres a lot in the repos not installed.. theres also the windowmaker warf/dock applets that are nice in some cases
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  but really how many  gizmos do ya need. :)\
[07:15] <Shadow6363> know the package names for any of them?
[07:15] <Ziggy> ubotu, Thanks man I think I can get that to work (On windows xp right now)
[07:16] <goodtimes> how do I change my file associations? when I open torrent files ubuntu wants to open it with democracy player instead of azureus
[07:16] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, i don't know, im quite satisfied with how things are, juts figured id try playing around with some of them
[07:16] <pike_> goodtimes: i think in nautilus you right click and its almost like xp where you do the always open with
[07:16] <Shadow6363> running out of things to play around with on my system :(
[07:16] <Sonicadvance1> I never knew C++ programs have 3 arguments in main() =o
[07:17] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  other then a clock, battery gague, and perhaps wireless/networking monitor. :) i dont need many
[07:17] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  time to play with the emulators!
[07:17] <krazye> dr_willas is there a way to network my NTFS partition in ubuntu and find it in my virtual machine
[07:17] <heatxsink> if I "apt-get install lirc-modules-source"
[07:17] <dr_willis> krazye,  try samba.. other then that.. no idea
[07:17] <heatxsink> how do I get to the source?
[07:18] <dr_willis> heatxsink,  ya could always install winscp on the virtualmachine and use ssh
[07:18] <krazye> I talked to the guys at samba
[07:18] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, yeah, thats about all i have minus battery plus volume
[07:18] <krazye> I dont know anything about samba, but they told me its a network file system
[07:18] <krazye> a completely different file system?
[07:18] <krazye> am I confused?
[07:18] <heatxsink> dr_willis: huh?
[07:18] <wgre0111> krazye: zune not working iwth rym program
[07:18] <Shadow6363> krayze, im pretty sure samba isnt an actual file system, not sure though
[07:18] <T-Connect> Is there a program that I can erase cd-rw?
[07:18] <dr_willis> oops wrong name. :) heh
[07:18] <heatxsink> no worries
[07:18] <dr_willis> tjat was for krazye  :)
[07:19] <kryten107> krayze, samba isn't a file system in that sense
[07:19] <sdouble> it's a system for files. poor wording.  =] 
[07:19] <kryten107> it just allows for network resource sharing between Windows, Mac, and Linux
[07:19] <krazye> ok, so how does it work. is it like a p2p program ?
[07:19] <sdouble> it's just like sharing in windows
[07:19] <kryten107> no no, it's just a protocol
[07:20] <Yorii> beryl: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:20] <kryten107> but it's really easy to install in Gnome, just go to Shared Folders I believe
[07:20] <Yorii> what have I done? :(
[07:20] <T-Connect> How do you guys erase cd-rw on Ubuntu?
[07:20] <pike_> samba doest take any real config these days
[07:20] <sdouble> none at all
[07:20] <Shadow6363> Yorii, what were you doing before you got that, i've had that problem before and fixed it, might be able to help out
[07:20] <sdouble> it was working right after I installed ubuntu
[07:21] <Yorii> I deleted fglrx drivers
[07:21] <kryten107> but once you get your NTFS setup in Ubuntu, your virtual machine should pick up on the connection
[07:21] <kryten107> I'm fairly sure.
[07:21] <sdouble> I had windows shares on my network, just went to remote places and browsed my network to find them
[07:21] <logreeval> is firestarter truly needed on startup in the session manger thing?, or is it running in the background?
[07:21] <kryten107> so long as you have your network stuff fed through to the virtual machine
[07:21] <dr_willis> !info samba-doc
[07:21] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[07:21] <inayet> ctothej: can you send me a link that has a flash movie? are youtube.com movies based on flash?
[07:22] <dr_willis> sdouble,  that proberly wont work for his vmware setup however
[07:22] <Yorii> any idea Shadow6363?
[07:22] <pike_> logreeval: it sets the iptables rules. after you run it type sudo iptables -L to see the settings
[07:22] <krazye> maybe its best I install it and figure it out hands-on
[07:22] <Shadow6363> Yorii, not really,sorry, why uninstalling the fglrx drivers
[07:22] <Nutubuntu> T-Connect,  'cdrecord blank=fast dev=/dev/cdrw' but for '/dev/cdrw' substitute the CD-RW device name.
[07:23] <dr_willis> krazye,  install that samba-doc package.. it included 2 well done books on samba, Samba is one of those topics thats well worth reading all about.
[07:23] <wgre0111> good night everyone.... thanks a million for all the help.
[07:23] <Nutubuntu> be well wgre0111
[07:23] <Yorii> Shadow6363: was gonna change to open radeon drivers
[07:23] <trelayne> hi all, I'm trying to watch live earth with mplayer plugin and it seems to hang on the plugin with the messge: Initiated "audio/MPEG4-GENERIC"   RTP subsession on port  xxxx Initiated "video/H264" RTP subsession on port yyyy
[07:23] <sdouble> ah, I thought it was someone else asking about the vmware stuff.
[07:23] <dr_willis> sdouble,  heck - it could be,. its late.. and im tired. :)
[07:23] <Yorii> Shadow6363: can't I apt-get that library? :(
[07:23] <trelayne> anyone else have this problem?
[07:23] <dr_willis> egads 1:30!
[07:23] <logreeval> thanks pike_ :)
[07:23] <dr_willis> night all.
[07:24] <Shadow6363> Yorii, Do you have the libgl1-mesa-glx package installed?
[07:24] <Yorii> yes
[07:24] <dfgas> how do i get pidgin or gaim to show song being played in xmms?
[07:24] <inayet> how do I know if I am using x86 or AMD64 or ppc ?
[07:24] <quentin> hello
[07:25] <Yorii> if you must ask you're probably using x86 inayet
[07:25] <vip3rousmango> anyone know if Kopete shows what song your playing in XMMS?
[07:25] <inayet> ctothej: can you please send me a site that is using flash ?
[07:25] <Nutubuntu> hm ... where do I get that egads-1.3.0 ? ;p
[07:25] <sdouble> hehe
[07:25] <UbuntuLover> I have ubuntu installed, but the restricted drivers say the driver might not be compatible, what should i do?
[07:25] <inayet> yorii: how can I be sure ?
[07:26] <Yorii> are you using a mac inayet?
[07:26] <drm> what kind driver??
[07:26] <sdouble> inayet: just try flash.com
[07:26] <drm> you need?
[07:26] <inayet> yorii: I am using a Gateway pentium 4
[07:27] <Shadow6363> Yorii, have you tried the restricted drivers if there were any?
[07:27] <Yorii> x86
[07:27] <Yorii> Shadow6363: it was those I removed
[07:27] <Shadow6363> Yorii, oh, have you installed the new open ones?
[07:27] <Shadow6363> well, i'm presuming you have and thats where the error is coming from?
[07:27] <taylor> Why can I not "Make" my ndiswrapper after installing?
[07:28] <Yorii> Shadow6363: I think I have :P
[07:28] <drm> ex
[07:28] <kryten107> taylor: did you ./configure it?
[07:28] <brujoh> taylor, are you using a capital M in make?
[07:28] <Yorii> Shadow6363: http://pastebin.ca/606892
[07:28] <Yorii> it's gone! :(
[07:29] <taylor> kryten107 no, it doesnt say anything about that on the ndiswrapper site
[07:29] <taylor> brujoh nope, lowercase
[07:29] <taylor> brujoh and im in the proper directory
[07:29] <kryten107> if you're using make, you'll have to ./configure it first I'm almost certain
[07:29] <kryten107> see if there's a configure script in the directory
[07:30] <brujoh> taylor, kryten107 has got you covered ;)
[07:30] <Shadow6363> Yorii, have libgl1-mesa-dri installed?
[07:30] <taylor> kryten107 nope, no config script
[07:30] <T-Connect> gnomebaker rocks!
[07:31] <kryten107> hm, can you point me in the direction of whatever instructions you're using?
[07:31] <Yorii> yes Shadow6363
[07:31] <taylor> kryten107 these ndiswrapper instructions kinda sorta suck
[07:31] <Shadow6363> Yorii, hrmm, I'm no expert at this stuff and you probably know more, but perhaps this has some good stuff: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[07:31] <Yorii> I doubt I know more! :D
[07:32] <kryten107> taylor, I'd say just ./configure for the hell of it and see if you get anything
[07:32] <Yorii> thanks for the link though..
[07:32] <inayet> ctothej: I clicked on a flash movie and then setting. next step?
[07:32] <Yorii> I think I'll just start everythin over
[07:32] <Yorii> :D
[07:32] <Toma-> Ive got a serious issue where the harddrive was HDA now its SDA...
[07:32] <UbuntuLover> Where can i get nvidia drivers for ubuntu 32-bit?
[07:33] <Toma-> dmesg wont display past scsi0: ata_
[07:33] <Shadow6363> Yorii, sorry, I'm nvidia so outside of that, im not very useful
[07:33] <Yorii> yeah, I'm never getting a laptop with ATI drivers :D
[07:33] <Yorii> luckily I got this one free..
[07:34] <Yorii> ATI-card*
[07:34] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, there is a tool called Envy in synaptic that will install the latest nvidia drivers for you, pretty schweet
[07:34] <Nutubuntu> !envy
[07:34] <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!
[07:35] <UbuntuLover> I cant install ntfs-config, it says there's a conflict.
[07:35] <brujoh> doh... thanks for the heads up Nutubuntu
[07:35] <inayet> when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:35] <Shadow6363> if you're starting all over, may I recommend http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481314 the merge seems to be pretty nice so far
[07:35] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, then what do i do?
[07:36] <inayet> Please help with fixing my external Creative SoundBlaster card.
[07:36] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, well it looks like there are some problems with Envy and it isn't recommended by the channel. Might not be worth trying in your case :(
[07:37] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, how about my ntfs-3g? itdoesnt want to install
[07:37] <T-Connect> gnomebaker seem hang at 99%.
[07:37] <kryten107> taylor: any luck?
[07:38] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, hrm.. What error is it giving you?
[07:38] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, just a sec.
[07:38] <Yorii> Shadow6363: reinstalling fglrx fixed the problem...
[07:38] <Yorii> gotta find a better way to remove it :D
[07:39] <inayet> when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:39] <Shadow6363> did you ever run the sudo modprobe -r fglrx or whatever the command was before uninstalling it from synaptic?
[07:39] <Nutubuntu> egads-10.4.0
[07:39] <UbuntuLover>  Depends: ntfs-3g but it is not going to be installed
[07:39] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, --^
[07:39] <Shadow6363> Yorii?
[07:39] <MajorPayne> What is "Launching HTTP Cache cleaner"?
[07:39] <Toma-> My computer is randomly switching between hda and sda... anyone experienced this before?
[07:39] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  Depends: libfuse2 but it is not going to be installed
[07:41] <inayet> Please help----when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:41] <taylor> kryten107 nope, installed package from synapteic, but its only version .6, ugh!
[07:41] <Shadow6363> inayet, if i had to guess, you dont have the proper codec, have you installed any besides the defaults?
[07:42] <Kryten107> taylor do you need an updated version for anything in particular?
[07:43] <taylor> kryten107 naw, but I just dont like having older verisons in linux, less reliable...
[07:43] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, You could try to install libfuse2. apt-get install libfuse2
[07:43] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, from the command line
[07:43] <john__> I have these files that are .rar files but in different parts, such as 1.r1, 2.r2 or whatever the file extension is. Will I be able to extract them easily like I do with Winrar on windows?
[07:43] <inayet> shadow6363: How do I know if I have installed any codecs?
[07:44] <inayet> I am new to linux
[07:44] <john__> test
[07:44] <john__> good
[07:44] <john__> I have these rar files that are split up into different parts
[07:44] <john__> will it be easily to extract them?
[07:44] <inayet> shadow6363: how can I install codecs?
[07:44] <Shadow6363> inayet, run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras or install it from synaptic or the application > add/remove, search for restricted
[07:44] <john__> or will it be hard before this is a waste of time to download?
[07:45] <brujoh> !automatix
[07:45] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:45] <rheisya> lo
[07:45] <Shadow6363> inayet, any of those will install a bunch of goodies to get you going including flash and a few codecs
[07:45] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  ntfs-3g: Depends: libfuse2 (>= 2.6) but 2.5.3-2.1ubuntu4 is to be installed
[07:45] <sanqiang> hello everyone. Does network-manager handle pppoe connections?
[07:45] <UbuntuLover> E: Broken packages
[07:45] <rheisya> semarang
[07:45] <Shadow6363> inayet, let me know how that goes
[07:46] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, Could you tell me the output of uname -r ?
[07:46] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, 2.6.20-15-generic
[07:47] <john__> Let me repeat my question incase nobody really heard me. Alright. There's this .rar file, but split up into parts. In Windows, I would highlight them all, right click and select extract here. Since i'm still learning more things about Linux since I Switched to it a few weeks ago, will it be easy to extract it the same way?
[07:47] <Shadow6363> and inayet, since i was a beginner not so long ago, ubuntuguide.org is a great place to get your system up and running, i find it rather useful in addition to irc of course
[07:47] <inayet> shadow6363: I typed "sudo apt-get"  what should I do now?
[07:47] <robby> !Programming Bash Variables
[07:47] <Shadow6363> john_ have you installed the rar package?
[07:47] <john__> no
[07:47] <srbaker> folks
[07:47] <srbaker> i'm having trouble with a netinstall
[07:47] <Kryten107> taylor, according to the INSTALL readme in the latest ndiswrapper tar, you should run 'make uninstall', then 'make', then 'make install' sounds odd, but you could try it
[07:48] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, i also seem to be unable to install the Nvidia driver, i did sudo sh NVIDIa* and it says i'm running X-server.
[07:48] <srbaker> i followed the dirctions at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/QuickNetboot
[07:48] <Shadow6363> john__  run a sudo apt-get install rar
[07:48] <srbaker> the logs say: "Serving pxelinux.0 to <ip>"
[07:48] <srbaker> but the client says "File not found"
[07:48] <srbaker> which doesn't make any sense
[07:48] <srbaker> thoughts?
[07:48] <robby> ok
[07:48] <srbaker> PXE-T01 File not found
[07:48] <john__> after i install it, will i be able to extract them?
[07:48] <buttercups> omg i love ubuntu
[07:49] <john__> i love ubuntu too.
[07:49] <srbaker> followed by PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - File Not Found
[07:49] <srbaker> anyone?
[07:49] <Shadow6363> john__ you should be able to, shouldnt even have to highlight them all, just open one and it should work, but i cant guarantee that
[07:49] <robby> everyone knows its butters
[07:49] <UbuntuLover> ubuntu hates me.
[07:49] <buttercups> hates me tooo!!
[07:49] <Enselic__> john__: sudo apt-get install unrar, yes you will be able to extract
[07:49] <robby> I love bash
[07:49] <john__> unrar?
[07:49] <Sonicadvance1> http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2155245,00.asp
[07:49] <Enselic__> john__: unrar
[07:49] <john__> i'm doing sudo apt-get install rar.. are they both different?
[07:50] <Shadow6363> Enselic__ isnt rar the recommended package, simply enables the default archiver to handle them, unrar is the non-free isnt it?
[07:50] <cold> rg +7000
[07:50] <srbaker> anyone?
[07:50] <Enselic__> john__: if rar doesn't work, try unrar
[07:50] <gameprograma> Hello!
[07:50] <john__> ok
[07:50] <john__> got them both
[07:50] <john__> i'll come back when i need help.
[07:50] <Enselic__> Shadow6363: probably true, yes
[07:50] <inayet> shadow6363: What should I do now?
[07:50] <robby> im hungary
[07:51] <UbuntuLover> i cant install NTFS-3G!
[07:51] <Shadow6363> Enselic__ john__ i've only installed rar and it works, but like he said if rar doesnt working, install unrar, i believe unrar is the linux equivalent of winrar
[07:51] <Shadow6363> inayet, did you install that package?
[07:51] <oksana> Is there a way to change default keybindings in programs like gedit? (for instance Ctrl-f opens the search/find dialog; is there a way to remap the keybinding to another key instead of using Ctrl-f?)
[07:52] <level1> Hi, I'm playing a file that uses an ogm wrapper and is encoded in DviX... I have a very nice processor and I can run things like compiz no sweat, but the videos seem to lag a lot... should this be the case, and is there anything I can do?
[07:52] <inayet> shadow6363: once I typed in "sudo apt-get" I got a list of commands and options
[07:52] <Shadow6363> inayet, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:53] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  you here?
[07:53] <Enselic__> level1: you could check if you have the latest codec
[07:53] <gameprograma> Is there a Windows Explorer-like tool for Gnome?
[07:53] <gameprograma> Nautilus isn't exactly cutting it.
[07:53] <buttercups> can someone nice answer a question for me pleeeease
[07:53] <level1> Enselic__: how?
[07:53] <encompass> gameprograma: what feature do you need?
[07:53] <Shadow6363> gameprograma, what extra features do you need?
[07:54] <encompass> hehe
[07:54] <Shadow6363> sort of jinx
[07:54] <Enselic__> level1: what program do you use?
[07:54] <level1> gameprograma: you can try konqueror, a lot of people (like me) really like it
[07:54] <gameprograma> encompass, Shadow6363: A tree view of the folders on the left hand side.
[07:54] <level1> Enselic__: kaffine, but its not the only player that has this problem
[07:54] <encompass> it has that
[07:54] <brujoh> UbuntuLover,  yeah I was looking around a bit. It looks like it is recommended to use the restricted devices manager to install your nvidia drivers
[07:54] <Enselic__> level1: mplayer has in my experience the best playback
[07:54] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, i meant the ntfs-3g
[07:55] <gameprograma> level1: Any other alternatives to Konqueror?
[07:55] <level1> Enselic__: is there a nice frontend to that, preferrably a kde frontend?
[07:55] <UbuntuLover> why is it everytime i use ubuntu i get major headaches.
[07:55] <inayet> shadows6363: it is updating some packages automatically.
[07:55] <encompass> gameprograma: view... sidepain
[07:55] <encompass> hehe sidepain
[07:55] <level1> gameprograma: well, theres nothing that windows explorer can do that konqueror can't, thats for sure
[07:55] <Shadow6363> inayet, that is ok, just wait for it to finish and then try to play the video
[07:55] <level1> gameprograma: so maybe your just not find the features you want
[07:55] <level1> but they're there
[07:56] <lastuser_> firefox jeje
[07:56] <encompass> gameprograma: I recommand sticking with gnome tools... it's "cleaner" that way
[07:56] <acu> can anyone tell me the easiest (preferably GUI with rightclick) way to mount automatically all hard disks in a computer? editing the fstab is still a black magic...
[07:56] <Kryten107> level1: the kde frontend to mplayer is kplayer ;)
[07:56] <encompass> acu: what version of ubuntu is it?
[07:56] <lastuser_> I prefer amarok :D
[07:56] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, not too sure on that one, What is ntfs-3g?
[07:56] <encompass> acu: fesity should do it for you
[07:57] <Enselic__> gameprograma: you can choose tree-view in Edit -> Settings
[07:57] <UbuntuLover> its to read/write ntfs drives
[07:57] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, its to read/write ntfs drives
[07:57] <buttercups> I'm trying to install ubuntu and like when I get to the partition options I dont get the resize option just the guided - use entire disk and the manual option
[07:57] <buttercups> someone tell me why!
[07:57] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, ahh I see...
[07:57] <encompass> buttercups: umm you can install ubuntu in many ways... including keeping your old Operating system on it
[07:57] <n2diy> buttercups: is anything else on the hard drive?
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: the partitioner probably suspects it cannot do a resize safely
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: or not at all
[07:58] <firelord901> Can someone figure out why I need to plugin my headphones and unplug them to get my speakers to work?
[07:58] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, like someone else said, there is a treeview, but i cant find how to get it like the windows explorer, im fairly sure you can, but not sure
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: in any case, you can try to do it manually
[07:58] <encompass> firelord901: what is your sound card?
[07:58] <firelord901> encompass: Intel HDA
[07:58] <khin> hi im trying to use the standard program w/ gui to get some bittorrents. i started downloading one and its going at like 18 KB/sec on a university network capable of several Mpbs. whats up?
[07:58] <level1> Kryten107: that's werid... theres no kplayer package on the ubuntu repos, even though I know I've installed it before
[07:58] <dpemmons> quick question.. I just installed mysql from source (I wanted 5.1beta) and added /usr/local/mysql/bin to PATH in /etc/environment     I still get "The program 'mysql' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0" when I type mysql at the command line though..
[07:58] <encompass> firelord901: I have the same driver... I don't get that issue
[07:59] <firelord901> encompass: are you using alsa version 1.0.14?
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, try on the left sidebar where it says places normally, click on that and then switch to treeview
[07:59] <encompass> firelord901: I would talk to the alsa guys on that one
[07:59] <Kryten107> level1: yeah I had to add it from the debian-multimedia repos I think
[07:59] <Kryten107> don
[07:59] <encompass> firelord901: what ever came with feisty, I am to lazy to look
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, also make sure under the edit>preferences that show only folders isn't checked if you want files also
[07:59] <Kryten107> don't know why it's not in the (k)ubuntu repos
[07:59] <khin> anyone know why it would so slow
[07:59] <khin> er would be
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, let me know if that is what you want or if you need more
[07:59] <firelord901> encompass: do you think its a problem in alsamixer?
[07:59] <robby> i hate all the connection Linux has to my system
[08:00] <encompass> firelord901: no
[08:00] <Shadow6363> inayet, hows that going so far?
[08:00] <buttercups> ya i wanna like duel boot windows xp with ubuntu, im following this guide psyhcats.net, im not smart enough to do it manualy
[08:00] <encompass> firelord901: sounds very funky to me...
[08:00] <khin> "manually" ?
[08:00] <acu> encompass: I use Debian Etch - but majority of things working in Ubuntu should work in Debian - and I need a GUI - easy way to permanently mount Hard disk drive - and I thought that would be for sure used in Ubuntu routinely
[08:00] <robby> lol manually
[08:00] <n2diy> khin: bitorrent is a sharing protocol, if your upload/download ratio is high, you may be throttled back by the servers/
[08:00] <firelord901> encompass: Your sound worked out of the box?
[08:00] <level1> !kplayer
[08:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kplayer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:01] <robby> 'MAN'ually
[08:01] <buttercups> whats funny
[08:01] <buttercups> omg
[08:01] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, I did an apt-get install ntfs-3g and it installed with no trouble in ubuntu fiesty. You could have some funky dependency or broken package problem. Maybe someone here knows how to troubleshoot that.
[08:01] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, nobody answered me.
[08:01] <khin> n2diy, you mean if im downloading stuff but not uploading? this is my first download so i guess i dont have anything to upload
[08:01] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, weird though, it was a fresh install too.
[08:02] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, 7.04?
[08:02] <n2diy> khin: yes, exactly, and if you did have stuff to upload, that would slow your download too.
[08:02] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, yeah, fiesty.
[08:03] <trumpetmic> hi
[08:03] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, already got all the updates and stuff?
[08:03] <n2diy> khin: bitorrent is for bandwidth sharing, not high speed DLs.
[08:03] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, yeah
[08:04] <imut> #jakarta
[08:04] <khin> n2diy, wait what, so you mean i can never get fast downloads?
[08:05] <khin> 13 KB/sec is not cutting it
[08:05] <robby> emacs pretty archic
[08:05] <dpemmons> quick question.. I just installed mysql from source (I wanted 5.1beta) and added /usr/local/mysql/bin to PATH in /etc/environment     I still get "The program 'mysql' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0" when I type mysql at the command line though..
[08:06] <n2diy> khin: no, but it takes time for your client to find servers, address them, etc... So your speed will ramp up slowly. I'm new to torrent too, in fact, I was just reading about on wikipedia.
[08:06] <dpemmons> how do I add it to the path so it actually works?
[08:06] <haberman> emacs rules...very powerfull if you know how to use it.
[08:06] <buttercups> are there any girls in here
[08:07] <n2diy> ! offtopic | buttercups
[08:07] <ubotu> buttercups: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:07] <Shadow6363> what kind of question is that in a help channel?
[08:07] <robby> haberman: thats what i was just thinking, i bet you can make some good stuff...;)
[08:07] <buttercups> no i want a girl to help me not a guy
[08:07] <Shadow6363> ok
[08:07] <oksana> khin: not everything on bittorrent is fast. it depends on how many people are sharing the file and the speed of their connections. (and how many others are downloading at the same time)
[08:07] <dpemmons> buttercups: you're looking for a girl on IRC? good luck :-p
[08:07] <Shadow6363> buttercups, odd, how will you know if theyre a girl or a guy?
[08:07] <robby> wow butters that is selfish
[08:07] <Irishscotch> are there mp3 downloaders for ubuntu?
[08:08] <mundungus> robby: copy that!
[08:08] <Irishscotch> somewhat like limewire
[08:08] <khin> hmmm now its at 25 KB/sec. a new record
[08:08] <Kryten107> irishscotch: it's called frostwire
[08:08] <Irishscotch> ty
[08:08] <Kryten107> np
[08:08] <robby> ouch 25kb
[08:09] <dpemmons> so.. can anyone tell me how to add a directory to PATH in ubuntu?
[08:09] <oksana> Irishscotch: or gtk-gnutella
[08:09] <UbuntuLover> Is there a website to show all the alternative software if someone like me just transfered from Windows?
[08:09] <brujoh> dpemmons, edit /etc/environment
[08:09] <level1> !alternatives
[08:09] <ubotu> To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal.
[08:09] <level1> !windows
[08:09] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[08:09] <dpemmons> brujoh: I did that.. I'm still getting the "install this with apt-get" message
[08:09] <level1> !equivalents
[08:09] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: have you checked out Synaptic yet, in your menus?

[08:10] <level1> nj786: what the problem?
[08:10] <^Takut^> anyone can tell me how to print using custom page size in ubuntu dapper
[08:10] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: I thought you wanted to explore what software was available to to you?
[08:11] <brujoh> dpemmons, ahh I see.. try source /etc/environment and try again
[08:11] <UbuntuLover> n2diy, no,i wanted linux-alternatives since i moved from Windows. Like video players,and the likes.
[08:11] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: have you checked out Synaptic yet, in your menus?
[08:11] <dpemmons> brujoh: ah that works
[08:11] <UbuntuLover> n2diy, fine.
[08:11] <buttercups> omg the only  help i got was im offtopic, i dont like ubuntu anymore, thats like why i wanted a girl they are nicer
[08:11] <nj786> level1: like when i send them a pic they tell me it autmoatically cancells
[08:12] <dpemmons> brujoh: will it "stick" now?
[08:12] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: it's all there, you just have to look for it.
[08:12] <Kryten107> UbuntuLover, did you see those links the bot provided?
[08:12] <brujoh> dpemmons, it should work for any new shells you open from now on I believe
[08:12] <inayet> ctothej: The downloading has finished, but the sound still does not work from youtube.com
[08:12] <UbuntuLover> Kryten107, where?
[08:12] <Kryten107> !equivalents
[08:12] <ubotu> A comprehensive list of of Windows-equivalent applications in Linux can be found at http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant
[08:13] <dpemmons> brujoh: nope it doesn't :-(
[08:13] <n2diy> buttercups: you just alienated half the people on the list, with your girl only help request.
[08:13] <inayet> Shadow6363: the downloading has finished but the sound from youtube.com still does not work
[08:13] <SuicideSamari> How do I change my proxy settings?  Every-time I try to connect to any net service from the shell, it connects through a proxy...need to go directly through. THanks!
[08:13] <robby> lol
[08:13] <dpemmons> I suppose I could add that to bash.bashrc but that seems like a hack..
[08:14] <MajorPayne> !hi
[08:14] <brujoh> dpemmons, yeah it does.. I hate to suggest this but I think I addressed a similar problem once with a reboot.. I had to hack my path as well.
[08:14] <SuicideSamari> Could someone help me change my proxy settings for the shell?
[08:14] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:14] <Flannel> dpemmons: That's the 'correct' method.  Add it to your bashrc
[08:14] <robby> 1 thing I like about Linux/Ubuntu etc.. Is you gota work for it.
[08:14] <UbuntuLover> I tried downloading Adobe Reader, but all i got was a Tar.Gz file, what do i do with it?
[08:14] <taylor> Why does iwconfig not print my wireless device(like wlan0), when I have properly installed the drivers in ndiswraper?
[08:15] <rohan> how can i change the command used to suspend/hibernate the computer ? i'd like to use s2ram and not the default suspend/hibernate that comes with ubuntu
[08:15] <kahdloc> huge /names list in here.
[08:15] <dpemmons> ok.. that's what I'll do then
[08:15] <inayet> shadow6363: where are you ? my external soundcard is still not working
[08:15] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[08:15] <dpemmons> brujoh, Flannel: thanks
[08:15] <Kryten107> taylor, is your wlan0 up?
[08:15] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: cd filename/
[08:15] <UbuntuLover> Megaqwerty, does that install the reader for me?
[08:16] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: not yet, that just extracts it.
[08:16] <taylor> kryten107 i suppose not, if iwconfig wont list it
[08:16] <Shadow6363> inayet, do movies in like the movie player work or is it just youtube?
[08:16] <taylor> kryten107 it works fine in windows amt
[08:16] <Kryten107> taylor: does it show up in ifconfig?
[08:16] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: the next command changes into the extracted directory
[08:16] <Kryten107> taylor: it depends if it's a matter of it being recognized and installed or just being activated
[08:17] <taylor> kryten107 ifconfig lists eth0(ethernet) and lo(i dunno what this is...)
[08:17] <robby> Imagine if everyone was forced to use Linux all the sudden. LOL call centers would flood
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: then once in the directory, do: ./configure
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> make
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> sudo make install
[08:17] <inayet> Shadow636:I will go to videos.google.com and see if it works there. Can you recommend any other sites that I can visit to see if I can hear the sound?
[08:17] <UbuntuLover> uh-huh
[08:17] <taylor> kryten107 hmm how do i activate it? (just in case its not)
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: did you not understand all of that?
[08:17] <tucci> am having amarok trouble: burning a playlist no longer opens k3b, but k3b opens fine when I do it. Can anyone help?
[08:18] <Kryten107> taylor: lo is local loopback, no need to worry about it. if your wlan0 is actually installed and such, then you should be able to bring it up with 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up'
[08:18] <n2diy> taylor: lo is your loop back connector, every box has it and needs it, don't mess with it.
[08:18] <DigitalNinja> Can someone help me with atptitude? I downloaded a package and I would like to install it using aptitude but I don't know how to do that
[08:18] <Zoiks> can someone help me with shared folders?
[08:18] <SuicideSamari> How do I change my proxy settings?  Every-time I try to connect to any net service from the shell, it connects through a proxy...need to go directly through. THanks!
[08:18] <taylor> n2diy lol :) ty
[08:18] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: if you tell me where you got lost, I can explain it to you.
[08:18] <Zoiks> DigitalNinja: how did you download it
[08:18] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: no need to install it with aptitude, aptitude will automatically see it once it's installed with dpkg
[08:19] <sirus> can a eggdrop be installed on Ubuntu?
[08:19] <n2diy> taylor: :), but I'm serious, you need it.
[08:19] <taylor> kryten107 wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[08:19] <taylor>     wah wah wah
[08:19] <UbuntuLover> Megaqwerty, thanks, i'll try it once adobe finishes downloading
[08:19] <buttercups> like omg i should have known better to ask for help from a guy
[08:19] <DigitalNinja> Zoiks: It's webmin. I downloaded the .deb
[08:19] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: okay, good luck. (not that you'll need it)
[08:19] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: I think there is a way to tel aptitude to install a .deb package
[08:19] <Kryten107> taylor: then it's not actually installed / recognized
[08:19] <Zoiks> just install it DigitalNinja it will automaticly show up on the package list
[08:19] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: I'll check the man, one sec
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> Zoiks: There are dependencies that don't get install if I use dpkg
[08:20] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: to install a .deb package do sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[08:20] <Zoiks> or you can just double click on it and click install
[08:20] <Zoiks> :)
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: That works but it doesn't install the dependencies
[08:20] <taylor> kryten107 ndiswrapper -l says...     wmp54gs : driver installed
[08:20] <taylor>         device (14E4:4320) present (alternate driver: bcm43xx)
[08:20] <pike_> DigitalNinja: what package are you installing?
[08:20] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: or, if you want a GUI, you can do gdebi-gtk filename.deb
[08:21] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: yeah I think aptitude is like apt-get, which won't install from a .deb, just fetchs and installs, so you'd use dpkg itself to install it
[08:21] <robby> You have to work for.
[08:21] <Yorii> I just wanted to say that after 3 hours of work and at least 20 reboots I finally got beryl to work with my ATI card \o/
[08:21] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: my command will look for dependencies as well as install it
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: What about all the dependencies
[08:21] <inayet> shadow6363: I cannot hear any sound from videos.google.com site either
[08:21] <Kryten107> taylor: just because the driver module is installed though doesn't mean your setup is recognizing the physical device
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> This is on a server
[08:21] <svrfrmfaith> can someone help me out with some wireless stuff?
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> no X
[08:21] <taylor> kryten107 how do i make it recognize it lol
[08:22] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: dpkg should take care of it. you don't have to use the CLI to do it, if you just install it from the right click context menu it'll fetch dependencies
[08:22] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: well, you can install it with dpkg, it will give you an error, you can then get the other dependency, etc.
[08:22] <taylor> kryten107 im stubborn, i only have an ethernet connection through tonight, and i got to get wirless to work hehe
[08:22] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: This is a server. No X
[08:22] <svrfrmfaith> I have instructions I just need someone to walk through them with me
[08:22] <svrfrmfaith> I'm a noob
[08:23] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: unless you have all the dependencies dl'ed then you can just do sudo dpkg -i *.deb, and dpkg will figure it out for you.
[08:23] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: hm. I'll check on it and get back to you
[08:23] <Kryten107> taylor: unfortunately figuring out your wireless from the start isn't something I can do from IRC at the moment, I'd check with some guide or UbuntuForums.org for some howtos
[08:23] <robby> I had to edot driver files and system files to get my ethernet to work.
[08:23] <Kryten107> man multitasking is a rush >.>
[08:23] <taylor> kryten107 kk, im off to google then hehe ty
[08:24] <Kryten107> taylor: np, you're welcome
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: I don't have all the dependencies downloaded.
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> I don't know what they are
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> I just know there are a lot of them
[08:24] <poningru> DigitalNinja: what are you trying to do?
[08:24] <svrfrmfaith> anyone...wireless help?
[08:24] <Shadow6363> quick question, what is the command to lock your screen, just xscreensaver or what?
[08:24] <poningru> !wifi | svrfrmfaith
[08:24] <ubotu> svrfrmfaith: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:25] <DigitalNinja> poningru: Install a .deb package and have all the dependencies installed
[08:25] <Yorii> how do I fold the corners of windows with beryl? :)
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> yeah I have found instructions
[08:25] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: you can find the dependencies on packages.ubuntu.com
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> but I've hit snags
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> so I'm hoping someone can walk me through it
[08:25] <Shadow6363> inayet, im working on it, but you might want to mention to the channel youre having trouble getting your external sound card to work
[08:25] <MajorPayne> !hi | MajorPayne
[08:25] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: No. This is not a package from Ubuntu
[08:25] <sirus> What do I ned to install an eggdrop?
[08:25] <bruenig> sirus, sudo apt-get isntall eggdrop
[08:25] <poningru> DigitalNinja: if it has any dependencies that it needs installing from the repos then it will download and install them
[08:26] <Shadow6363> inayet, before you do, does sound work in videos not online, like local videos lke one of the example videos installed with the system
[08:26] <svrfrmfaith> wireless.....come on someone who is bored and has a few minutes to help me out! :)
[08:26] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: well, it's actually time for me to be off to bed, so I'm sorry I can't be of more help. 'night.
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> poningru: This is not from any repos. I downloaded this from a website
[08:26] <poningru> DigitalNinja: what is it?
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> webmin
[08:26] <robby> Im bet you can make some keygens and pssword crakz with emacs and terminal
[08:26] <poningru> DigitalNinja: there is a reason why its not in the repos
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> I want it
[08:26] <poningru> ...
[08:26] <elpargo> anyone knows why flash + videos eats up CPU?
[08:27] <bruenig> elpargo, flash video or flash + video?
[08:27] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: whats the trouble?
[08:27] <elpargo> bruenig, flash video :) flv
[08:27] <bruenig> elpargo, mainly because adobe is incompetent
[08:28] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: I'm sure there's a way, I'm still poking around the mans and googling
[08:28] <inayet> Shadow6363: Are there any videos on my ubuntu systems that came with it?
[08:28] <bruenig> DigitalNinja, sudo dpkg -i foo.deb ; sudo apt-get install -f (yet another flaw in debian package management)
[08:28] <heatxsink> has anyone compiled lirc-0.8.2 by hand?
[08:28] <elpargo> DigitalNinja, it's call gdebi
[08:28] <heatxsink> ls
[08:28] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja has no X
[08:28] <DigitalNinja> elpargo: That only works if you have X
[08:28] <bruenig> that is a dirty way around it
[08:28] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: Thansk
[08:29] <Shadow6363> inayet, there should be an Examples folder on your desktop or in your home folder, if not you should be able to create a new user and that user will have them
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: Thanks
[08:29] <elpargo> DigitalNinja, then use bruenig's cli
[08:29] <Shadow6363> inayet, or just google for a .avi and download it
[08:29] <Kryten107> Glad we got that one out lol
[08:29] <Shadow6363> anyone know the command to lock the screen?
[08:29] <zenfool> hey all :)
[08:29] <bruenig> when you dpkg it, it creates an error about missing stuff and logs the package as broken and then you have to use the apt-get option to try to fix broken packages
[08:29] <bruenig> ridiculous
[08:29] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: keep it in the channel
[08:29] <poningru> whatsup?
[08:29] <Kryten107> seriously.
[08:29] <svrfrmfaith> oh sorry about that
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: That should work. I thought there was a way to do it using aptitude though
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> maybe not
[08:29] <bruenig> no
[08:29] <elpargo> Shadow6363, ctrl_alt_l
[08:29] <Kryten107> Aptitude doesn't handle local packages
[08:29] <elpargo> Shadow6363, make those +
[08:29] <Kryten107> installing them anyway..
[08:29] <khin> should one of my bit torrent downloads really be going at 3 KB/sec or is something just wrong
[08:29] <svrfrmfaith> the forum I'm getting install instructions for my wireless isn't noob friendly and it's confusing me
[08:29] <pike_> bruenig: its not so bad.
[08:30] <Shadow6363> i need the actual command, trying to make a script with it
[08:30] <Shadow6363> ^@elpargo
[08:30] <John`> is there a way to make ubuntu ignore caps and uncaps files and treat it as the same thing?
[08:30] <brujoh> Shadow6363, I believe the command to lock your desktop is xscreensaver-command -lock (xscreensaver has to be running of course)
[08:30] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: whats the trouble?
[08:30] <bruenig> pike_, why would you have dpkg and apt-get, there needn't be two package management things like that, it creates problems like that
[08:30] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith, what kind of wireless card do u have
[08:30] <poningru> John`: no
[08:30] <Kryten107> John`: nope that's how Linux rolls.
[08:30] <UbuntuLover> Which is better? Compiz or Beryl?
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> Dell 1390
[08:30] <elpargo> bruenig, but wasn't flash9 supposed to fix all that?
[08:30] <ColdNunya> me 2!
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> and I found instructions
[08:30] <John`> ok
[08:30] <poningru> UbuntuLover: both are same now
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> that everyone say work
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> on the forum
[08:30] <ColdNunya> man isnt that card a bitch
[08:30] <John`> how do you look at hardrive info
[08:30] <John`> ?
[08:30] <bruenig> elpargo, flash 9 fixed sound not much else
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> but there are things that I simply don't understand
[08:30] <elpargo> Shadow6363, ahh hold on I don't remember its full name
[08:31] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to synaptic search for bcm-43xx and install it
[08:31] <Kryten107> John`: what kind of info?
[08:31] <Shadow6363> elpargo, i think i found it, gnome-screensaver-command -l ?
[08:31] <John`> space
[08:31] <John`> how much space left
[08:31] <ColdNunya> i did the script from the site, but it ends up dissabling my wireless all together
[08:31] <John`> etc..
[08:31] <UbuntuLover> poningru, i saw this really cool comparison on youtube between Windows Aero and Beryl on Ubuntu and it was awesome, where could i find that set of theme/config?
[08:31] <n2diy> John, what kind of HD info?
[08:31] <John`> in terminal
[08:31] <John`> how much space left, how many partitions
[08:31] <John`> etc..

[08:31] <zenfool> how's everyone today?
[08:31] <xoRock> !ask have anyone try ubuntu desktop?
[08:31] <svrfrmfaith> all the instructions say I have to use that program that forces windows drivers
[08:31] <n2diy> John, df
[08:32] <elpargo> Shadow6363, yup that works here too.
[08:32] <Kryten107> John`: gah, trying to remember Gnome stuff...I think there should be a Disks option in Administration?
[08:32] <elpargo> bruenig, so we are basically stuck with crappy videos?
[08:32] <Shadow6363> yay :)
[08:32] <Nutubuntu> How do I work backwards from where gconfd crashes with sig 15, to figure out what's going on?
[08:32] <xoRock> !ask have anyone try ubuntu studio? (not desktop ^^)
[08:32] <bruenig> elpargo, the videos aren't crappy, your cpu might race a bit and the browser will crash on you every once in a while
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> here are the instructions provided to install my card
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140214&page=2
[08:32] <ColdNunya> is there a way to go back to the default drivers with that 1930 card? after i ran that .sh from a forum it lost all knowlege of my card..
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> on the bottom
[08:32] <John`> thanks
[08:32] <elpargo> make that crappy videos on crappy software.
[08:33] <UbuntuRocks> hey all - may i ask a question about automounting a usb drive from a terminal (not gnome or kde)
[08:33] <n2diy> Nutubuntu: your log files?
[08:33] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: oh hmm hold on
[08:33] <UbuntuLover> be right back
[08:33] <svrfrmfaith> thanks poningru
[08:33] <elpargo> bruenig, in here it goes to 100% although I open several at ones so they load in the back.
[08:33] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, automount from terminal, oxymoron?
[08:33] <Nutubuntu> n2diy, yes - looked at them, grep for the crash time, but I don't understand much of what I saw
[08:33] <svrfrmfaith> there's only like 10 steps, but half of them confuse the hell out of me
[08:33] <ColdNunya> ponigru, i have the same problem.
[08:33] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: use gtkndis
[08:33] <poningru> install that
[08:34] <svrfrmfaith> how do I get it/install it?
[08:34] <UbuntuRocks> I have a USB drive showing up fine as sda, vfat system on it, entry in fstab that works fine with "mount -a" - but it doesn't mount at boot time! and ideas?
[08:34] <n2diy> Nutubuntu: roger that! I probabaly wouldn't either!? You might pastebin the relevant sections?
[08:34] <poningru> !install | svrfrmfaith

[08:34] <nixlover> hey, what can i use for rar files
[08:34] <nixlover> i need to open a rar file
[08:34] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to system->admin->synaptic
[08:34] <sniDe> Hey guys, how do I change the default use of application for a certain file type? For example I have some .cbr / .cbz comic book files but when I double click on one of them.. it automatically opens a program named Evince Document Viewer, I don't want that.. I prefer Comix
[08:34] <bruenig> svrfrmfaith, which ones confuse you
[08:34] <poningru> and search for that
[08:34] <pike_> nixlover: unrar
[08:34] <John`> type rar in sypmatic nixlover
[08:34] <John`> find it in there
[08:34] <pike_> nixlover: syntax is like unrar e filename.rar
[08:34] <nixlover> is that the only thing.. cause thats in beta
[08:35] <ColdNunya> pningru, the touch pad software?
[08:35] <pike_> nixlover: unrar-nonfree
[08:35] <Kryten107> sniDe: Preferred Applications I believe
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> well step 2 confuses me, I don't now how to get my kernel header files
[08:35] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, to automount it at bootup you would need to make an entry for it in /etc/fstab
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> step 1 was easy enough
[08:35] <bruenig> oh wow that guy is stupid
[08:35] <bruenig> he says to do sudo make uninstall before sudo make?
[08:35] <nixlover> pike_: so thats my only chose
[08:35] <nixlover> choice
[08:35] <elpargo> bruenig, how about flv playback in the desktop? i remember vlc had something going.
[08:35] <baconbacon> I did a shred on my swap (/dev/sda2) to be sure to get rid of sensitive data. after that I mkswap /dev/sda2 and changed the uuid in /etc/fstab. Now hibernate doesn't work When I reboot it doesn't resume but reboot normally. What did I forget?
[08:35] <sniDe> Where is that?
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> I just want to run through it because everyone after said it helped
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> or it worked
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> I really need my wireless up, otherwise back to XP :(!
[08:35] <n2diy> sniDe: menu > system >prefs > preferred apps?
[08:35] <Kryten107> bruenig: I just read that in the official INSTALL readme for ndiswrapper too, I don't get it
[08:35] <bruenig> elpargo, vlc mplayer I know can do it, anything which uses ffmpeg as a backend should be good to go
[08:36] <Kryten107> bruenig: just removing old junk I guess
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> bruenig can I direct message you?
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: that way may not work. Are you in gnome?
[08:36] <bruenig> no
[08:36] <pike_> nixlover: only good one so far as i know. ive only ever used unrar with rar files. back in the day i used wine i think with winrar
[08:36] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith this card is killin me
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> I'm working on it ColdNunya :)
[08:36] <sniDe> Yeah, I'm using the Gnome desktop environment.
[08:36] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: instead of following that instruction just use gtkndis
[08:36] <nixlover> ark doesnt work with rar file?
[08:36] <Kryten107> I need to brush up on Gnomenclature...
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> k can someone run me through how to use/install gtkndis?
[08:36] <Kryten107> nixlover: not without unrar installed
[08:36] <sniDe> I have found it.. thanks.
[08:36] <sniDe> Gonna configure it now.
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: right click the type of file you want to start opening default in another application
[08:36] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: I just told you
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: go to open with
[08:37] <nixlover> ooo ok so i guess ill install it
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> ohh hold on
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> thanks
[08:37] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith did it dissable your ethernet too when you were messing with it?
[08:37] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to system->admin->synaptic
[08:37] <bodaciousbrian> Does anyone know how to capture audio with ubuntu?
[08:37] <elpargo> bruenig, ok then I'll probably get video downloader and work around it. but still I hate it when companies don't fix their crap and won't let people fix it for them either.
[08:37] <inayet> Shadow6363: I am in the process of downloading .avi video
[08:37] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: then choose the application (or type it in to the command box) and from then on, it will open with the application you specify
[08:37] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: maybe Audacity does audio capture?
[08:37] <pike_> bodaciousbrian: like from a video or what?
[08:37] <Kryten107> not really sure.
[08:37] <bruenig> elpargo, don't use it
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> no not disabling of ethernet
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> okay I'm in synaptic
[08:37] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, ive heard that
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> bruenig: to each his own.
[08:38] <elpargo> bruenig, that's kind of hard with everyone today posting everything to youtube :)
[08:38] <bodaciousbrian> pike_, just streaming audio... but yeah basically, i want whats being sent though my sound card to be saved to mp3
[08:38] <sniDe> Yeah, but when I do that.. it will open for that particular file, not ALL .cbz / .cbr ..
[08:38] <bruenig> I wrote a youtube download script
[08:38] <sniDe> all files I mean.
[08:38] <bruenig> you want it?
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: are you sure about that?
[08:38] <svrfrmfaith> what do I do after I get into synaptic?
[08:38] <n2diy> bruenig: me to, I have ten fingers, why only use three of them on a mouse?
[08:39] <bodaciousbrian> pike_, i dont know if there is anything that listens to ALSA for example, and records it
[08:39] <Ayabara> I need to use my external harddrives in osx and ubuntu. What should I format them to?
[08:39] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: if I'm reading the Audacity features list correctly, you should be able to specify whatever audio input you want
[08:39] <bruenig> n2diy, hard to control someone when you have to worry about whether they clicked the right box or not
[08:39] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, ill fire that up now and play with it
[08:40] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: good luck~
[08:40] <UbuntuRocks> brujoh i already have an entry in fstab that works with "mount -a" - but doesn't mount it at boot???
[08:40] <robby> Anyone know the return code for wrong passwrd?
[08:40] <sniDe> My apologies.. I thought it didn;t work before.
[08:40] <elpargo> bruenig, I'll pass there is this really nice firefox extension that takes care of almost all sites.
[08:40] <n2diy> bruenig: yes, and whether the right clicked, left clicked, double clicked, etc...
[08:40] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: no problems. I hope it was helpful
[08:40] <sniDe> Apparently the other cbz / cbr files now can be opened with the Comix application.
[08:40] <sniDe> Yeah, thanks man. I appreciate your help.
[08:40] <bruenig> elpargo, ah but how much easier can it get than $ youtube url
[08:40] <svrfrmfaith> there is no gtkndis
[08:41] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: I was confused as well about this behaviour in the beginning.
[08:41] <bruenig> well if anyone is interested, here is the youtube script: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28941/
[08:41] <elpargo> bruenig, true but then it supports other sites :)
[08:41] <ColdNunya> what does gtkdnis do?
[08:41] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, I think you might need to make sure the device is called directly in fstab. instead of doing a mount -a (to mount all) try mountint the specific device.
[08:41] <svrfrmfaith> I don't know, I was told to use it
[08:41] <svrfrmfaith> gtkndis
[08:42] <UbuntuRocks> brujoh thanks - that also mounts fine - so it doesn't seem sthere is anything wrong with the fstab entry
[08:42] <ColdNunya> when you blacklisted that driver, and used the new one. does it stop recognizing your wireless card?
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I haven't gotten that far at all, I'm stuck on the second step of the instructions
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I'm a real noob
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I've used Fedora Core in the past
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> then went to XP because some drivers I needed weren't in open source
[08:42] <n2diy> ! nood
[08:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nood - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> now I'm trying again
[08:42] <n2diy> ! noob
[08:42] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[08:42] <netyire> hello all, anyone know how to use mencoder to convert an avi file to a dvdauthor compliant pal mpg file
[08:43] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, what does your fstab entry look like?
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> I don't know what it means when it says "you need to get the kernal header files"
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> how/where to get those
[08:43] <Kryten107> n2diy: someone needs to teach ubotu about nood.
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> and which ones
[08:43] <ColdNunya> you are using what version of ubuntu
[08:43] <ColdNunya> ?
[08:43] <bruenig> netyire, I usually go with ffmpeg -i file -type ntsc-dvd file.mpg
[08:43] <netyire> *hello?
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> newest one I beliee
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> just installed
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> two days ago
[08:44] <ColdNunya> ok, fiesty fawn 7.04 32bit?
[08:44] <netyire> bruenig,  thanks :D. But anyone knows how to use mencoder to do it?
[08:44] <n2diy> Kryten107: roger on the dumb bot. :) 1025 nicks is on the low side, usually we are up near, or above 1100.
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> how do I find it?
[08:44] <bruenig> why would you want to really
[08:44] <bruenig> ffmpeg is better
[08:44] <netyire> ffmpeg may sometimes make the audio out of sync
[08:44] <netyire> :(
[08:44] <ColdNunya> did you get it from the website?
[08:45] <bruenig> says who?
[08:45] <Kryten107> n2diy: I was just in it for the power of 2, but yeah, this is a crowded room lol
[08:45] <svrfrmfaith> yeah feisty Fawn 7.04 32 bit
[08:45] <svrfrmfaith> that's right
[08:45] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, may want to make sure it isn't set to noauto
[08:45] <ColdNunya> 1 sec
[08:45] <robby> I wonder if youcan pipe a m4 or sed to ssh?  like m4/sed <file> +1,a,A > ssh www.something.com/.....
[08:45] <John`> how come when i do "rar a /home/name/Desktop/images" it doesn't add the images folder but it add stuff from the desktop?
[08:46] <UbuntuRocks> brojuh - yes, it isn't set to noauto - because mount - a works. i have a feeling the drive isn't ready at the time that bootup tries to mount - is that possible?
[08:46] <netyire> bruenig, hmm, well it may have from past experience. :D anyway, is it possible to use mencoder? (this sounds a bit irritating, right?)
[08:46] <n2diy> Kryten107: got a secret for ya, #ubuntu-classroom is almost empty.
[08:46] <Enselic__> John` try "rar a /home/name/Desktop/images/*.jpg"
[08:46] <bruenig> I sure there is, if the scroll back on your terminal will allow you to see the whole thing
[08:47] <Kryten107> n2diy: I don't mind, I was just surprised. Never been in here before, but helping out seems pretty cool
[08:47] <UbuntuRocks> anyone ever used udev/hal/ivman to automount a usb drive?
[08:47] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, Good question. I wonder if you have to include the UUID in the fstab entry also.
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> yo
[08:48] <n2diy> Kryten107: roger, roger. Getting a TY can be a lot of work, but it is worth it.
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats up all?
[08:48] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, yeah it is setup by default to do that
[08:48] <robby> Lukes Drunk
[08:48] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, i cant make audacity record any random thing playing though the sound system =(
[08:48] <nj786> hey why cant i send pics and videos through PIDGEN or GAIM to WINDOWS XP users using AIM
[08:48] <Enselic__> robby: couldn't you sed to a temporary file which you then send to the remote computer
[08:48] <Enselic__> ?
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> Robbys High
[08:48] <John`> what would be a command to rar a folder?
[08:48] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig how do you tell it where to mount the drive?
[08:48] <John`> is it still using "rar a
[08:48] <John`> "
[08:48] <robby> lol
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> I have a question
[08:49] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: did you fiddle with the input stream? I have limited experience with Audacity and haven't actually touched it in several months
[08:49] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, on my arch box, it mounts it where I have specified in the fstab
[08:49] <Enselic__> John`: it will be explained how to use the program in "man rar"
[08:49] <ImLukeEkblad> Um, is there anything better than GIMP on linux?
[08:49] <jordan_> How do I suspend to RAM from a terminal?
[08:49] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you may want to try the development version
[08:49] <robby> Enselic_: You tell me..;)
[08:49] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, yeah i have, it might be that my sound card is not installed correctly also... but, i dont know
[08:49] <ImLukeEkblad> wuh?
[08:49] <netyire> hmm install the package that contains s2disk or something
[08:49] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig may i ask what options you have for it in fstab?
[08:50] <bruenig> It is on my laptop which I am not privy to
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  the what?
[08:50] <level1> hi, whats the easiest way to upgrade to kernel 2.6.22?
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you are running GIMP 2.2 right?
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> uh huh
[08:50] <ColdNunya> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-25-386
[08:50] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: hm. yeah, that might mess it up. I'd check through Audacity's support or UbuntuForums to see what you can find
[08:50] <svrfrmfaith> thanks!
[08:50] <svrfrmfaith> okay hold on just a second
[08:50] <ColdNunya> or 19
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Yes, i am
[08:50] <n2diy> Kryten107: do you see the speaker icon on your menu bar? Those settings will effect Audacity's performance.
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the next version (2.4) is under development, you can try GIMP 2.3 to see how far it has come
[08:50] <level1> ColdNunya: wouldn't that be a downgrade?  and a big one at that
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the version you are using hasn't been improved for like 2 years
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> didn't work
[08:51] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: with new functinoality, only bugfixes
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> error
[08:51] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, im going to change my soundcard settings from autodetect to something that i can easily set audacity to listen too, and hope it works
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg...."
[08:51] <ColdNunya> i think 19 is the current....
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> 19?
[08:51] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok, how do i get the newer one?
[08:51] <level1> ColdNunya: I have 20
[08:51] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: so if you want to find out what the best image editing app looks like for Linux, you need to try GIMP 2.3
[08:51] <ColdNunya> i see.
[08:51] <level1> ColdNunya: so obviously 19 is not current
[08:51] <ColdNunya> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-25-386
[08:51] <ColdNunya> is that correct filename
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> for me?
[08:51] <netyire> urname -r
[08:52] <jordan_> ImLukeEkblad: I have heard a KDE app recommended, I think it was called krita
[08:52] <ColdNunya> level1
[08:52] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats KDE?
[08:52] <netyire> K desktop environnment
[08:52] <netyire> !kde
[08:52] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[08:52] <ColdNunya> i havent found the official current #ubuntu
[08:52] <n2diy> ImLukeEkblad: Gnomes sister.
[08:52] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: hm, I dunno, sorry. Good luck, and I'd definitely check the forums if you can't get it working
[08:52] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: Krita is different though, it's a painter app, not an image editor
[08:52] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:    How do i get gimp 2.3?
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !hal
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hal - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !ivman
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ivman - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !udev
[08:52] <flaccid> !info gimp
[08:53] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, where can i find thoes?
[08:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:53] <ubotu> gimp: The GNU Image Manipulation Program. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.13-1ubuntu4.2 (feisty), package size 2899 kB, installed size 7920 kB
[08:53] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: look at ubuntuforums.org, or google for "gimp 2.3 for ubuntu"
[08:53] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, I think it is probably just /dev/whatever /mount/point vfat defaults 0 0
[08:53] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: http://www.ubuntuforums.org - Your Best Friend Ever
[08:53] <bruenig> since I had to write it and I am lazy
[08:53] <flaccid> ImLukeEkblad: yeah i had to d/l manual and install - still not in ubuntu packages
[08:53] <jordan_> How do I suspend to RAM from a terminal?
[08:53] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, awsome, thanks for the help
[08:53] <Shadow6363> inayet, sorry things are slow, did you get that video yet?
[08:53] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: you're welcome, good luck~
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> what the heck does it mean when the terminal says E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:54] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: I can guide you if you want to
[08:54] <jordan_> svrfrmfaith: You are running another package manager
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> haha got it
[08:54] <robby> Enselic__: you have prior exp with sed to remote?
[08:55] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok
[08:55] <n2diy> svrfrmfaith: another package manager is using it, you need to close Synaptic, apt-get whatever, so the lock file goes away.
[08:55] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: first, download the latest release from www.gimp.org
[08:55] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: (2.3.18)
[08:55] <flaccid> 2.3 is heaps better
[08:55] <netyire> can you disable the lock file?
[08:55] <Ayabara> can I mount hfs+ in ubuntu?
[08:55] <svrfrmfaith> okay still having serious problems with the second step of these weireless instructions
[08:55] <Enselic__> robby: how do you want to use it?
[08:55] <svrfrmfaith> wireless*
[08:55] <Frogzoo> jordan_: sudo pmi action suspend
[08:55] <ColdNunya> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/
[08:56] <UbuntuRocks> thanks bruengi - trying it out now... do you need ivman or is udev/hal enough?
[08:56] <ColdNunya> it says 15 is current
[08:56] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok
[08:56] <jordan_> Frogzoo: Thank you
[08:56] <netyire> ayabara: I think you can, the forum or help.ubuntu.com may have info on it though
[08:56] <ColdNunya> but hell if i know thats what your using
[08:56] <svrfrmfaith> says "Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.15-386
[08:56] <brad016> how do you run bittorent from the command line?
[08:56] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: let me know when it has downloaded
[08:56] <brad016> just start it
[08:56] <netyire> install rtorrent
[08:56] <brad016> its allready installed
[08:57] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   how do i install the 2.3 one?
[08:57] <Ayabara> netyire, ok, I'll do some more research
[08:57] <robby> just wondering
[08:57] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: have you downloaded the latest release?
[08:57] <ColdNunya> http://ubuntu.secs.oakland.edu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-386_2.6.20-15.27_i386.deb
[08:57] <n2diy> brad016: are you spelling it correctly, I thought it was bitorrent?
[08:57] <nicola> -irc.net
[08:57] <Kryten107> n2diy: nope, bittorrent, as in a torrent of bits
[08:57] <brad016> n2diy, ya thats it, thanks man
[08:58] <brad016> n2diy, apriciate it
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy
[08:58] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   The newest releas is 2.2.18
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy: ouch, nevermind.
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: 2.3.18
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> k it's installing
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the latest development release
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> thanks for walking me through this
[08:58] <ImLukeEkblad> I dont know to to download that tho
[08:58] <n2diy> :)
[08:58] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig - do you know where i can look for debug info to see why its not mounting my usb drive automatically?
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy: and that came off as unintentionally condescending
[08:58] <bruenig> no, hal is confusing
[08:58] <Yorii> What's a good bittorrent client for unbuntu? Azureus crashes on me for no apparent reason :/
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: where are you from? Ill give you a link
[08:58] <Yorii> Ubuntu*
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> okay I believe I have the latest version of ndiswrapper
[08:58] <n2diy> Kryten107: nada
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> and I did all that make install stuff
[08:58] <oksana> Yorii: deluge
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: where shall I pick a mirror for you?
[08:59] <bruenig> Yorii, azurues is one of the worst clients out there
[08:59] <svrfrmfaith> step 8
[08:59] <brad016> n2 but you cant run it form that
[08:59] <svrfrmfaith> is the next one that I'm really stuck on
[08:59] <bruenig> Yorii, utorrent is good though give it a try
[08:59] <Kr[A] p> hi, i've prob running ubuntu 7.04 desktop 64bit LiveCD. After selecting 'run or install ubuntu' in Menu, it loads awhile then my screen goes blank 'no signal' Any help? Tks.
[08:59] <Yorii> I know, but other than uTorrent, Azureus was the only one I could think of
[08:59] <Yorii> and I cba with Wine :P
[08:59] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Washington state, Us of America, Earth, Milky way
[08:59] <netyire> Yorii: try ktorrent
[08:59] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: :d
[08:59] <Yorii> not using KDE
[08:59] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  lol
[08:59] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: http://gimp.mirrors.hoobly.com/gimp/v2.3/
[09:00] <netyire> Yorii: you can run it even if you're not in kde
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: there is a list of mirrors at gimp.org, so you know next time
[09:00] <Nutubuntu> Maybe a better question (than my how-do-I about X crashing) might be, is there anything I can put in place that would make a record of what's crashing X, as it happens? rather than trying to look back through the logs?
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: now grab 2.3.18
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: and download it somewhere
[09:00] <netyire> Yorii: type sudo apt-get install ktorrent
[09:00] <netyire> its a great client
[09:00] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   ok, whats one?
[09:00] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  theres like 90
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: http://gimp.mirrors.hoobly.com/gimp/v2.3/gimp-2.3.18.tar.bz2
[09:00] <ompaul> !bootoptions > Kr[A] p  (check the message from the bot - ubotu it tells you all you need to know)
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> OMG
[09:01] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: yeah but only one is latest... 2.3.*18*
[09:01] <Nutubuntu> (although in the plus column, I won a $5 gift cert to amazon while searching for info on the X crash ...)
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> um, can you wait 17 hours?
[09:01] <ColdNunya> i gotta get going. good luck
[09:01] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, pmi action suspend didn't suspend the computer successfully but choosing suspend from Gnome does ( it just doesn't resume, which I think is a problem with fglrx, which is why I am trying to suspend without X running to check )
[09:01] <Kr[A] p> ompaul: okie. thanks
[09:01] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig - so you're saying i should use ivman instead?
[09:01] <ColdNunya> coldnunya@gmail.com if you get it working
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   OHHHHHH, nvm, 17 minuts
[09:01] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you might wanna try out different mirrors
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: sure
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> lol
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Sooo, it is way better?
[09:02] <Frogzoo> jordan_: sudo pmi action suspend
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: GIMP is the best image editor for Linux
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: and it's better
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: I'm a developer of it
[09:02] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, I used sudo
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  Wooh, really?
[09:03] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: we aim for releasing 2.4 in some months
[09:03] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, The screen went blank and the computer froze but it wasn't suspended
[09:03] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   How dose it compare to Photoshop?
[09:03] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: what about 2.2 don't you like btw?
[09:03] <level1_> Enselic__: I never liked the multi document interface, personally... is there a way around that, to force it to be single document or tabbed?
[09:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Yeah, its good I guess, but I miss photoshop
[09:04] <level1_> ImLukeEkblad: try it for yourself
[09:04] <Nutubuntu> Enselic__,  truly? I owe you guys a huge thank-you - GIMP is outstanding
[09:04] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: it lacks some things that would make it interesting for professionals, mostly more than 8-bit color deepth
[09:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Why cant you make it more than that?
[09:04] <Enselic__> level1_: the UI is controverisal
[09:04] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: we are, bu that will be in 2.6
[09:04] <robby> Is there any error code or return code for incorrect passwrd?
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: first we need to get 2.4 out
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: since 2.4 is several yearslod
[09:05] <Enselic__> 2.2 i mean
[09:05] <flaccid> the selection features in 2.3 is what makes it decent
[09:05] <EADG> level1_: Have a look at PhotoGimp, supposedly makes it more like PS gui, haven't tried it myself thought.
[09:05] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Cool
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: GIMP will make use of a new image processing core, called GEGL
[09:05] <flaccid> its gimpshop
[09:05] <level1_> so, how can I install new linux headers?
[09:06] <brujoh> robby from a failed su the return code seems to be 1
[09:06] <Jordan_U> Enselic__, From outer space?
[09:06] <Enselic__> Jordan_U: ?
[09:06] <Ayabara> it seems that hfs/hfsplus support is there, but I can't find much info on reliability. I'm gonna use OSX and Ubuntu and want to find the right format for my external hd without using fat32 :)
[09:06] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   So, what verson of the gimp will be as good as ps cs3?
[09:06] <level1_> flaccid, EADG: they aren't in the repositories
[09:06] <level1_> Ayabara: something against fat32?
[09:06] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: that's a long time left, but we are getting closer and closer day by day
[09:06] <nj786> hey why cant i send pics and videos through PIDGEN or GAIM to WINDOWS XP users using AIM?????
[09:07] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  cool
[09:07] <EADG> flaccid: thanks,
[09:07] <Enselic__> nj786: migt be because there is no support for that yet
[09:07] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install ndisWrapper?
[09:07] <nj786> Enselic__: meaning?
[09:07] <Enselic__> nj786: noone has writtens support for that
[09:07] <level1_> Enselic__: theres support for images, it just seems to be fussy
[09:07] <Jordan_U> Enselic__, It's a Gnome easter egg, open the run dialog and run "gegls from outer space"
[09:07] <flaccid> level1: i already said that
[09:08] <Enselic__> nj786: or well there might be, test the latest code
[09:08] <nj786> Enselic__: ok how do i test it from where?
[09:08] <Enselic__> nj786: you need to build from source to get the latest
[09:08] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install NDISwrapper?
[09:08] <level1_> nj786: keep trying, sometimes it takes a few attempts
[09:08] <robby> Jermeysan: having wireless issues?
[09:08] <level1_> its annoying
[09:08] <jeremysan> yes robby.
[09:09] <brad016> does Ubuntu have python preinstalled?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> brad016, Yes
[09:09] <robby> 1 moment got the page
[09:09] <jeremysan> well I wouldn't say issues, It's just that I bought a wireless USB card and the only way to install it (as far as I know) is with NDISwrapper
[09:09] <brad016> Jordan_U, neat
[09:09] <Jordan_U> brad016, Ubuntu <3 Python :)
[09:09] <jeremysan> So I'm trying to figure out the best way to do that
[09:09] <brad016> Jordan_U, what?
[09:09] <Ayabara> level1, just a feeling that it's not the best choice if I can mount hfs from ubuntu or ext2/3 from os x
[09:09] <vinneh> anyone having trouble installing extensions in firefox?
[09:10] <robby> jermeysan: linksys?
[09:10] <jeremysan> robby, not linksys, D-Link
[09:10] <bruenig> vinneh, no nobody
[09:10] <brad016> Jordan_U, where is python?
[09:10] <robby> k
[09:10] <vinneh> ayabara
[09:10] <tonsofpcs> what is the difference between remove and completely remove in synaptic?
[09:10] <Jordan_U> brad016, Just run "python" in a terminal
[09:10] <n2diy> Does anybody have experience with NaDa? I installed it, but I'm not sure if it is working or not? http://www.bernardbelanger.com/computing/NaDa/
[09:10] <vinneh> i know a lot about osx
[09:10] <brad016> Jordan_U, got it
[09:11] <bruenig> tonsofpcs, remove is like apt-get remove, completely remove is like apt-get remove --purge
[09:11] <flaccid> tonsofpcs: completely remove purges the config files as well
[09:11] <vinneh> i missed the start of your conversation
[09:11] <Jordan_U> tonsofpcs, remove completely remves config files
[09:11] <vinneh> but have you tried FUSE
[09:11] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok, i'm trying to learn graphic art  possibly for a career someday.  Would The GIMP be good enough for that?
[09:11] <tonsofpcs> so you would remove for an update/upgrade/reinstall but completely remove if it f'd something up and you don't want to see it again?
[09:11] <bruenig> ImLukeEkblad, probably not
[09:11] <ImLukeEkblad> Why not?
[09:11] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: printing professionals need feature not yet provided by GIMP
[09:11] <Ayabara> vinneh, nope. My Mac arrives in a couple of days, and I thought I'd reformat my external drives today.
[09:11] <bruenig> tonsofpcs, I would completely remove always unless you are hosting some webserver or something in which you have done a bunch of manual editing to configuration files in /etc
[09:12] <RRRRRRRRR> alguien sabe espaol??
[09:12] <Frogzoo> tonsofpcs: complete removal erases the configs in /etc
[09:12] <bruenig> !es
[09:12] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:12] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install NDISwrapper?
[09:12] <Jordan_U> Ayabara, You can't mount ext2/3 from OSx and you can't mount hfs+ RW on Linux unless you turn off journaling :(
[09:12] <vinneh> thats not correct
[09:12] <vinneh> fuse will do it
[09:12] <bruenig> ImLukeEkblad, you can probably learn on it, but gimp is not as strong as photoshop in terms of features
[09:12] <vinneh> im sure fuse will do it
[09:12] <Nutubuntu> Enselic__,  I'm curious to know which features you are referring to - not yet in GIMP - needed by printing professionals
[09:12] <ripper> how do i remove a newer version of libc6 and install the old one back?
[09:13] <tonsofpcs> thanks guys :) [I tried installing compiz and it killed gdm] 
[09:13] <vinneh> fuse in most ubuntu repos, and is also in fink, and darwinports
[09:13] <Frogzoo> !appdb | ImLukeEkblad: you can get PS to run in wine:
[09:13] <ImLukeEkblad> Do you think that There will ever be a program on Ubuntu that will be as good as Photoshop?
[09:13] <ubotu> ImLukeEkblad: you can get PS to run in wine:: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:13] <Enselic__> Nutubuntu: support for higher bit-deepth, and better CMYK support
[09:13] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, CYMK support is a big one
[09:13] <n2diy> ripper: very carefully, that is a critical piece of software.
[09:13] <Enselic__> Nutubuntu: that's the the most important things missing
[09:13] <vinneh> fuse even has ntfs read write
[09:13] <robby> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDlink  try this site, it gave me step by step
[09:13] <flaccid> ImLukeEkblad: gimp is just as good if you learn
[09:13] <ripper> n2diy yeah i upgraded it and it removed g++ and a bunch of other stuff
[09:13] <ripper> i need all that back
[09:14] <flaccid> photoshop 7 runs well in wine
[09:14] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok
[09:14] <Nutubuntu> I am still *very* impressed with GIMP
[09:14] <bruenig> ripper, how would it remove g++?
[09:14] <UberPsyX> hi, im trying to install guild wars nightfall, my cd wont mount so i downloaded the client, it loaded once, got to login screen but i had no mouse so i closed. Now when it connects to areanet it freezes my pc at 100% and i have to force quit to get out again
[09:14] <tonsofpcs> flaccid: really? at full 32bpp?
[09:14] <svrfrmfaith> how do I "view" the wireless network?
[09:14] <n2diy> ripper: have you checked synaptic/
[09:14] <ripper> not yet
[09:14] <netyire> UberPsyX: check winehq for help or use cedega
[09:14] <n2diy> /?
[09:14] <flaccid> tonsofpcs: i dont know
[09:14] <UberPsyX> netyire, ok
[09:15] <Ayabara> vinneh, I'll check out fuse. thanks
[09:15] <ripper> ok that isnt helping any
[09:15] <n2diy> ripper: reinstalling with synaptic might work?
[09:15] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Is there a way to get the gimp to run in just one window?
[09:15] <vinneh> np
[09:15] <vinneh> :)
[09:16] <ripper> n2diy nope
[09:16] <MajorPayne> @42
[09:16] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: hmm, what for? you could use your own worskpce for it though
[09:16] <vinneh> im triplebooting osx linux and vista
[09:16] <n2diy> ripper: reinstalling didn't work?
[09:16] <vinneh> so i use fuse and mactrive
[09:16] <robby> can u pass return codes to bash scripts ?
[09:16] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: Ctrl + Alt + Right/Left
[09:16] <vinneh> im running gutsy
[09:16] <ripper> uninstalling the old one is required first
[09:16] <bruenig> robby, yes
[09:16] <ripper> but it wants to remove like every app on the pc
[09:16] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  ok
[09:16] <Jordan_U> ImLukeEkblad, Not that I know of, If you use compiz / beryl / compiz fusion try using the group plugin, or just keep it in it's own virtual desktop
[09:16] <pedrola> how i put kde my default manager?
[09:16] <bruenig> robby, what do you have in mind exactly
[09:17] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: running it in it's own workspace will essentially give you the Photoshop interface
[09:18] <n2diy> ripper: ok, it is critical software, and shouldn't be messed with. Maybe they could help you in #ubuntu-kernel?
[09:18] <ripper> looks like aptitude might save my ass
[09:18] <robby> just something like if var = return 1 then cycle() ETC....
[09:18] <}matrix{> i have a problem with ubuntu... a silly question..after i finish install how do i setup my network ? where can i see tutorials with screenshot(s)
[09:18] <praveen> heh how to upgrade to Feisty fawn server edition
[09:19] <Nutubuntu> I'm curious about Compiz-Fusion ... it's obviously pretty to look at in the demos and screenshots I've seen, is it useful too? in terms of helping actual work?
[09:19] <nj786> hey why cant i send pics and videos through PIDGEN or GAIM to WINDOWS XP users using AIM?
[09:19] <n2diy> Does anybody have experience with NaDa? I installed it, but I'm not sure if it is working or not? http://www.bernardbelanger.com/computing/NaDa/
[09:19] <robby> JUST SOMETHING IN MY HEAD
[10:15] (zerofactor/#ubuntu) yea, thats it
[10:15] (bbrazil/#ubuntu) zerofactor: tell him to reinstall whatever driver he was trying to install from scratch. Copying it from another computer (especially one that running different versions) won't work
[10:15] (kikkomanchow/#ubuntu) hrmm how come if i go to a http://localhost/test.php address.. firefox ask me to save or open dialog?
[10:16] (thepower27/#ubuntu) it still does not work
[10:16] (tanlaan/#ubuntu) ubotu: apple
[10:16] (ubotu/#ubuntu) Sorry, I don't know anything about apple - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <zerofactor> sigh
[10:16] <tanlaan> ubotu: ppc
[10:16] <ubotu> PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[10:16] <thepower27> I did the editor thing and it just just changes the screen without the cube show
[10:17] <magnetron> zerofactor: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   on a command line
[10:17] <zerofactor> ok ig ot the error
[10:17] <zerofactor> API mismatch this nvidia driver component has version 100.14.11 but nvidia kernel module's version does not match
[10:17] <^tiNee^> ati problem?
[10:18] <magnetron> thepower27: hold the CTRL and ALT keys and use the mouse to drag the desktop
[10:18] <thepower27> nothing
[10:18] <Jordan_U> zerofactor, Did you install the drivers from nvidia.com?
[10:18] <zerofactor> lemme see
[10:19] <magnetron> zerofactor: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   on a command line, choose vesa    (standard svga drivers)
[10:19] <zerofactor> yes the drivers were downloaded from nvidia
[10:19] <Jordan_U> zerofactor, If you use the drivers from nvidia.com instead of restricted manager the drivers will break every time you get a kernel upgrade, which is why I usually recommend against it.
[10:19] <magnetron> thepower27: ctrl + alt + (arrow key=)
[10:20] <Supaplex> that's half the fun
[10:20] <johnybot> yoho!
[10:20] <Supaplex> yoho suxors. hersheys > *
[10:21] <thepower27> ok.. it changes the desks
[10:22] <thepower27> but that is not the problem
[10:22] <ejedi> is there a way to install the starter-bar "avanti" in gnome/feisty !?
[10:22] <thepower27> when I first installed ubuntu it would show the desktops on a cube
[10:22] <thepower27> like it was animated
[10:22] <thepower27> it is not doing that anymore
[10:23] <T-Connect> Don't need avanit
[10:23] <ejedi> hi! is there a way to install the starter-bar "avanti" in gnome/feisty !?
[10:23] <T-Connect> avanti
[10:23] <Jordan_U> thepower27, System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[10:23] <magnetron> thepower27: then you have disabled "desktop effects"
[10:23] <thepower27> yes
[10:23] <T-Connect> Is avanti a virus scanner?
[10:23] <CaptainMorgan> !rpm
[10:23] <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)
[10:24] <dropety> zerofactor: not sur but i think you need to add "nv" to the /etc/default/linux-restricted-common-modules-... file. Or de-install the linux-restricted-common package and after that run the sh NVIDIA.... package again.

[10:30] <dropety> experenced with the realtek drivers 8139cp and 8139too. ubuntu keeps loading them both. no network lights are on. when booting winxp all seems ok.
[10:31] <snakeman> guy do we have a channel for ubuntu-studio
[10:31] <maniacmusician> snakeman: #ubuntustudio
[10:31] <snakeman> sorry thanks
[10:32] <n2diy> dropety: you can't run them both, drop the .too and try the connection?
[10:32] <Gatedialer> a channel with 1k users
[10:32] <Gatedialer> and no one talking
[10:32] <dropety> i did but didn't work. tried dropped cp too - didn't work  either. also tried blacklisting 8139too - no avail
[10:33] <Gatedialer> COCKS!
[10:33] <n2diy> dropety: restart 8139.cp?
[10:33] <meo> hallo
[10:34] <[snail] > so the new NVidia drivers cause my xserver to crash because of kernel / driver version incatibilities, so now i need nvidia drivers that are older than what nvidia.com hosts, where do i go to either get older drivers , or at least drivers compatible with my kernel?
[10:35] <Jordan_U> [snail] , Remove the drivers from nvidia.com and use Restricted Manager
[10:36] <[snail] > i'm relatively new to *nix, how do i remove the drivers, and i'm assuing by restricted manager , you mean what i can sudo apt-get / aptitude / syntaptic?
[10:36] <dropety> n2diy: i rmmodded both drivers and the mii driver too. then modprobed 8139cp or 8139too separately but no nic lights.
[10:37] <charlie__> is any one interested in helping a newb with upgrading ubuntu?
[10:37] <n2diy> dropety: I think it should have been 8139.cp?
[10:38] <skollie> charlie_: what are you looking for?
[10:38] <n2diy> charlie__: what are you upgrading from/to?
[10:38] <bruenig> !upgrading | charlie__ I ubotu always am
[10:38] <ubotu> charlie__ I ubotu always am: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:38] <gameprograma> How do I get rid of the network configuration icon in the notification applet?
[10:38] <charlie__> well i have 5.10 and i want to upgraqde to 7.04
[10:38] <n2diy> gameprograma: right click it, and delete?
[10:39] <robby> wow ubotu is gettin good at interacting
[10:39] <charlie__> i have the iso extracted tot he desktop
[10:39] <bruenig> charlie__, best to fresh install if you can
[10:39] <bruenig> charlie__, just burn the iso and fresh install
[10:39] <skollie> charlie_: probably not the best idea to skip major version releases
[10:39] <dropety> [snail] : I recommend to use the proper driver for your card. Then run as suggested sh NVIDIA..version....run. it will crash the xserver because the kernel doesn't match the driver. therefore add "nv" in the /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common file
[10:39] <charlie__> i cant burn it because my cdrom cant be recognized
[10:40] <DarkClown> anyone here who can tell me how to reactivare metacity after playing with beryl?
[10:40] <dropety> [snail] : the error is due to the fact that the wrong nv module is being loaded.
[10:40] <charlie__> i put in ablank  cd to burn the iso and right before it burns it says invalid parameters and wont burn
[10:40] <nj786_> what do i do to find out how much GIGS i have used in my PC?
[10:40] <bruenig> charlie__, you will need to delete the iso, upgrade via package manager to 6.06 then again to 6.10 then again to 7.04, hope that everything that breaks isn't too severe
[10:40] <charlie__> i am about to go crazy!!
[10:40] <skollie> charlie_: what do you mean 'can't be recognised'
[10:40] <gameprograma> n2diy: Nope.
[10:41] <gameprograma> There's no delete option.
[10:41] <bruenig> and then make a note not to get so far behind
[10:41] <charlie__> bruenig: i go to update manager and it says my version is not supported
[10:41] <bruenig> charlie__, it isn't
[10:41] <nj786_> like i wanna know how many giogs my system has availbable
[10:41] <nj786_> gigs
[10:41] <n2diy> gameprograma: right click it, and remove from panel?
[10:41] <dropety> [snail] : there is a chance that if you rmmod nvidia and modprobe nvidia again it will work but everytime you boot this error will occur
[10:41] <robby> ubotu keep on rocking
[10:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keep on rocking - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:41] <bruenig> !upgrading | charlie__ you can still update though go here, your system will probably break though I can only imagine
[10:41] <ubotu> charlie__ you can still update though go here, your system will probably break though I can only imagine: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:41] <charlie__> thank you
[10:41] <gameprograma> n2diy: There are no available remove options in the context menu that the left and right click buttons provide.
[10:42] <charlie__> i just wonder why my cd burner wont burn the iso
[10:42] <[snail] > so i need to make this file have nv in the disabled_modules then rerun the .run file i got from nvidia.com , and things ... should work?
[10:42] <fdr> hi! please, is there a HOWTO or similar document that explains how to make a package of a custom-compiled kernel? thanks!
[10:42] <gameprograma> I'm talking about the NetworkManager Applet, mind, not the Network Monitor applet.
[10:42] <robby> bruenig:  thats not far
[10:42] <robby> fair
[10:42] <bruenig> huh
[10:42] <n2diy> gameprograma: humm, works for me in Dapper, what are you using?
[10:42] <bruenig> !kernel | fdr
[10:42] <gameprograma> n2diy: Feisty.
[10:42] <ubotu> fdr: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:42] <skollie> charlie_: see if you can find what the parameters problem is, burn the CD and then do a fresh install
[10:43] <fdr> bruenig, thanks
[10:43] <robby> your giving ubotu the answers...:)
[10:43] <Jak08> hello world
[10:43] <bruenig> !hi | Jak08
[10:43] <ubotu> Jak08: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:43] <n2diy> gameprograma: I'll stick with Dapper, Good Luck.
[10:43] <robby> lol
[10:43] <gameprograma> lol, thanks.
[10:43] <bruenig> dapper still on 1.5?
[10:44] <n2diy> bruenig: 1.5 what?
[10:44] <bruenig> ff
[10:44] <dropety> [snail] : that's how I got it to work after some endless attempts. actually the sh NVIDIA will compile the kernel module for you - just don't tell it to fetch it from an ftp site.. and skip the re-configuration of the xorg.conf as it may mess up you resolutions. just edit it manually
[10:46] <n2diy> 444 cool
[10:47] <imre> hi
[10:47] <dropety> hi
[10:47] <n2diy> hu
[10:47] <n2diy> hi
[10:47] <charlie__> okay so i put in a blank cdrom and now it is no longer giving me the parameter issue, instead its promptingme to put in a cd and i click okay and it just keeps[rompting me
[10:48] <charlie__> i am write clinking the iso and selecting write to disk
[10:48] <robby> does it read any cds?
[10:48] <Jak08> So you people possibly know the success of installing the latest stable release on an intel mac? I finally got around to downloading the new one :) last one didn't have great success either unfortunitly
[10:48] <skollie> charlie_: do you have the path to the cdrom drive properly specified?
[10:48] <maxagaz> c'est quoi le logiciel bit torrent pour gnome ?
[10:49] <maxagaz> sorry...
[10:49] <charlie__> yeah...when it first put in the cd it prompts me for what i want to do with it...data...music..etc
[10:49] <Jordan_U> Jak08, What model?
[10:49] <r00tintheb0x> maxagaz, "deluge"
[10:49] <charlie__> i am not sure
[10:49] <r00tintheb0x> !french | maxagaz
[10:49] <ubotu> maxagaz: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[10:49] <Jak08> the first imac 20"
[10:49] <maxagaz> r00tintheb0x: deluge ? I've never heart of it
[10:49] <robby> when you put a cd with data or something already on it does it read it?
[10:49] <r00tintheb0x> Yeah, it rocks maxagaz.
[10:49] <r00tintheb0x> VERY lite... it's a lot like UTorrent for windows.
[10:50] <r00tintheb0x> Written in GTK also, not Java.
[10:50] <Jordan_U> Jak08, Never tried that myself but since it uses intel integrated graphics it should work well
[10:50] <skollie> charlie_: almost sounds like you already have data on the cd
[10:50] <jenda> How do I activate the keyring, so that I don't have to enter my ssh and gpg passphrases all the time?
[10:50] <charlie__> robby:yes
[10:50] <Jak08> ok, thank you. if only it would hurry up and finish downloading :)
[10:50] <jenda> I know I had this before, but I reinstalled and can't find it anymore.
[10:50] <charlie__> it prompts  me hopw i want to handle the blank media when i out in a blank cd
[10:50] <Jordan_U> Jak08, Intel mac support was a goal for 7.04 , and aside from my ATI card everything works great on my macbook pro
[10:51] <robby> using nero?
[10:51] <charlie__> just write clicking the iso and selecting write to disk
[10:51] <charlie__> should i use nero?
[10:51] <robby> na
[10:51] <robby> i min i got a page for you
[10:52] <charlie__> cool
[10:52] <charlie__> thx man
[10:52] <Jak08> nice, who knows maybe the disc eject button will work on their unlike how it no longer works for me in os x
[10:52] <robby> try editing upper + lower filters in registry
[10:52] <r00tintheb0x> charlie__, http://www.nero.com/eng/NeroLINUX.html
[10:53] <charlie__> thx root
[10:53] <charlie__> whaddu mean robby?
[10:53] <robby> wait u in windows right
[10:54] <Jordan_U> Jak08, Plus Compiz ( installed but not enabled by default in Feisty ) beats OSx's effects hands down :)
[10:54] <tuna> how can you mount an hfsplus volume so you can read ALL files?
[10:54] <charlie__> no...im in ubuntu 5.10
[10:54] <Jak08> wait, which effects?
[10:54] <tupa_> are newer usb devices not compatible with old usb cards?
[10:54] <Jordan_U> charlie__, Why?
[10:55] <tupa_> I am having trouble with my usb wireless card on an old laptop
[10:55] <robby> lol. ok let me find the other page
[10:55] <robby> sorry thought you in win
[10:55] <robby> 1 min
[10:55] <skollie> charlie_: do you have k3b installed?
[10:55] <charlie__> because i cannot make a feisty cd because it form some reason when i right click the 7.04 iso...it does not recognize the blank cd
[10:55] <ponicg> Jordan_U, Your ATI card doesn't work even w/the AMD/ATI DRivers?
[10:55] <charlie__> i have no idea man..total newb
[10:55] <charlie__> sorry
[10:56] <Assassin`> is there a notifier program?  Like where if i get a message in irc he says somthing???
[10:56] <Jordan_U> Jak08, Compiz has effects like OSx's expose and minimizing animation but also has many others like having your desktop on a 3D cube or the option of having your windows close by burning :)
[10:56] <charlie__> its cool robby...i appreciate your help
[10:56] <Jordan_U> ponicg, It does, it's just that fglrx is generally horrible
[10:56] <skollie> charlie-: go to multimedia on the start menu and see if K3B is listed
[10:57] <Fossilet> HI>

[10:58] <Frogzoo> Fossilet: sudo apt-get install dictd
[10:58] <Jak08> oh sweet, i was going to use enlightenment but that sounds pretty nifty, that is why i love os x better than windows is expose
[10:58] <Fossilet> ...

[11:05] <Jordan_U> charlie__, Try running: sudo apt-get update
[11:05] <charlie__> k
[11:05] <Jordan_U> charlie__, It might not work though since 5.10 is no longer supported
[11:05] <levander> svk 2.0 came out last December.  Why is Feisty (and Gutsy) still on 1.08?
[11:06] <skollie> charlie_: and after the sudo apt-get update run sudo apt-get install k3b
[11:06] <Jordan_U> levander, packages don't get updated after release except for bug fixes, and Gutsy is not fully merged with all upstream packages
[11:06] <charlie__> yeah jordan...i got a bunch of 404's when it tried connecting
[11:07] <charlie__> i assume the lack of support
[11:07] <levander> Jordan_U: That's what I'm saying though.  svk 2.0 came out four months before Feisty was released.
[11:07] <primom> ola
[11:07] <charlie__> hi
[11:07] <Jordan_U> charlie__, Try "cdrecord /path/to/iso" in a terminal
[11:07] <Jak08> joran_U, you mentioned those effects are installed but not enabled, how exactly do i enable them?
[11:07] <primom> k psa
[11:07] <primom> hello
[11:07] <Jordan_U> levander, Before the freeze?
[11:07] <charlie__> k
[11:08] <Jordan_U> Jak08, System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[11:08] <levander> Jordan_U: svk 2.0 came out in December.  Fesity came out in April.  Unless they froze Feisty five months before it was released... yes, before the freeze.
[11:08] <charlie__> error trying to open device
[11:09] <Jak08> ok, thanks, guess I probly should of thought of that though
[11:09] <Jordan_U> Jak08, To get all of the effects you need to install more packages though, by default there is not much, and pretty much no preferences
[11:09] <levander> It's not like svk is an obscure program.
[11:10] <Jak08> is it possible to set it to the buttons of the mouse like you can in os x?
[11:10] <Jak08> I mean easily
[11:10] <Jordan_U> levander, svk is community maintained so you should ask the maintainer
[11:10] <judyc> Hello, anyone can help me? My problem is all domain names are not resolved
[11:11] <skollie> charlie_: again, it seems like a path to device error
[11:11] <charlie__> i guess ill just request a cd
[11:11] <charlie__> how can i go about correxting that skollie?
[11:11] <Jordan_U> Jak08, I think a mighty mouse will work as a two button mouse but the extra buttons need to be configured
[11:12] <Jak08> okay, I'll have fun with it tomorrow when I finally get this downlaoded and then installed
[11:13] <skollie> charlie_: not entirely sure - depends on where your cd's are mounted - usually /media/cdrom or /dev/cdrom or something
[11:14] <skollie> judyc: what seems to be the problem?
[11:14] <judyc> How can I check if the DNS service is working well if I'm just using DHCP
[11:14] <judyc> Thanks skollie
[11:14] <skollie> judyc: try pinging a couple of sites and see what happens
[11:14] <r00tintheb0x> Anyone ever used prelinking in Ubuntu, and if so... did you notice a difference?
[11:14] <judyc> I can ping the ip address of google, but not the domain name
[11:15] <judyc> It happens to all sites
[11:15] <ApocalypticOni> hey. i just installed ubuntu, an i love everything except embedded videos wonto work in firefox
[11:15] <Jordan_U> r00723r0, prelinking is no longer required in 7.04
[11:15] <ApocalypticOni> how can i fix that?
[11:15] <skollie> judyc: looks like it is a dns problem. Do you have a working DNS server?
[11:15] <judyc> And also happens to all applications, the ping in termainl as well as with a net brower
[11:15] <judyc> yes
[11:15] <Jordan_U> r00723r0, preloading may help still help load times though
[11:15] <charlie__> skollie: i believe its /media/cdrom
[11:15] <judyc> I am not sure
[11:16] <judyc> It used to work well.
[11:16] <^tiNee^> apoc u mean like youtube and stuff?
[11:16] <skollie> judyc: where does your machine get its ip address from i.e. where is your DHCP server?
[11:16] <judyc> And I just make all those setting via DHCP
[11:16] <_Johny> Can anyone check out if movies from this site open in firefox under linux, please! -http://liveearth.msn.com/  ?
[11:17] <ApocalypticOni> ^tiNee^: ya, and things that seem to be dependent on my default media player
[11:17] <^tiNee^> did u go on the forum and check out the sticky about adding multimedia to feisty?
[11:17] <judyc> So how can I check the DNS status now I'm using?
[11:17] <^tiNee^> i did that and it works
[11:18] <^tiNee^> and as for firefox u just go to a page with watever plugin that is missing and it has a little link thing that lets u install the plugin if u dont have it
[11:18] <Jordan_U> _Johny, It's a microsoft page, of course it says that it will only work with IE
[11:18] <ApocalypticOni> ill do that. thanks
[11:19] <^tiNee^> my ubuntu got messed up cuz i tried to install the ati driver =/
[11:19] <_Johny> Jordan_U, I do know that, but FF has its mplayer plugin . I just hoped it would play with it...
[11:19] <skollie> judyc: are you on a network or a stand-alone machine and how do you usually connect to the Internet
[11:19] <Jordan_U> _Johny, It may still actually work if you just change your user agent but knowing MS it probably uses ActiveX *shudder* so you may need to install IE
[11:19] <_6stringkng_> is katapult for gnome?
[11:20] <_Johny> No. As far as i know only "deskbar"
[11:20] <_6stringkng_> ah
[11:20] <charlie__> i gotta run...thx for you help
[11:20] <skollie> charlie_: I'm a little stumped - not sure why you are having a device error
[11:20] <_6stringkng_> hows it, any good?
[11:20] <charlie__> i am not either...i didnt have this problem before...i am just gonna get a cd
[11:20] <charlie__> i really do appreciate your help thugh
[11:20] <_Johny> For me it's enough, and I used to use Katapult before
[11:20] <skollie> charlie_: good luck...
[11:21] <_6stringkng_> I used katapult so much in kde, lol
[11:21] <charlie__> thx skollie
[11:21] <judyc> skollie:machine is in a LAN and there's a DHCP service available
[11:21] <skollie> charlie_: one more thing - try rebooting and see what happens afterwards
[11:21] <charlie__> okay
[11:21] <Jordan_U> _Johny, I am sure that mplayer can play the video itself, it's the web page that won't work, and I don't know how you would find the actual video file unless it's obvious from the source
[11:21] <charlie__> i will
[11:21] <charlie__> have a good one
[11:21] <_Johny> Jordan_U, shit
[11:22] <_6stringkng_> whats the keyboard shortcut to activate it?
[11:22] <lesshaste> I thought inkscape could load in ps files.. is this not true?
[11:22] <Jordan_U> _Johny, There is IE4linux , as blasphemous as it may be :)
[11:22] <skollie> judyc: if you have a DHCP server available, you do not need to manually change your DNS settings - maybe your DNS server is just down?
[11:22] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, AFIK no, I think that xara extreme can though
[11:23] <judyc> skollie: yes, And the network services in the LAN should be ok for I'm using my room mate's windows in the same LAN now
[11:23] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: ok.. the docs seems to say it can
[11:24] <skollie> judyc: try restarting your network services - what OS are you using?
[11:24] <_Johny> Jordan_U, Already got that. It doesn't seem to open a network stream as WMplayer isn't installed
[11:24] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, I couldn't open any last time I tried, didn't look into it though so there may be a way
[11:24] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Current_PDF_Support#PS_Import
[11:24] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: I am confused
[11:25] <jon__> where can I get the newest version of amarok as a deb?
[11:26] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, Do you have skconvert and pstoedit installed?
[11:26] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: I am working on that problem :)
[11:26] <skollie> jon_: why not use your package manager to download and install?
[11:26] <Ashex> !compiz
[11:26] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:26] <jon__> skolie: I have the, bunch of annoying bugs
[11:27] <jon__> skolie: me thinks they fixed in new version
[11:27] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: ok.. I think i can fix it :)
[11:27] <skollie> jon_: sudo apt-get install amarok
[11:28] <judyc> skollie: It's Feisty. And I've tried rebooting serverl times while not work
[11:28] <jon__> skollie: I did that, I just want the new version,(got mdibuntu, backporst and all) but they aint upgrade yet
[11:29] <jon__> skollie: nm
[11:29] <skollie> jon_: have you tried sudo apt-get update first?
[11:30] <jon__> skollie: just gonan try and reinstall
[11:30] <Jordan_U> skollie, That isn't going to help...
[11:30] <skollie> judyc: check what's in your /etc/resolv.conf
[11:30] <skollie> why not Jordan_U
[11:31] <DaltonS> Hmm. I have an ATI 8x AGP card and an onboard NVidia card. Wonder how impossible it would be to get both drivers working at the same time...
[11:31] <tupa> I have a ssh server, and a remote computer over the net, how can I start X in the remote computer? (to be displayed in the remote computer, not in the server one)
[11:31] <Jordan_U> skollie, New versions of packages are not put in the repos except for bug fixes
[11:32] <judyc> skollie: It says "search localdomain" and the "nameserver" is pointing to the correct IP
[11:32] <skollie> Correct Jordan_U - my mistake...
[11:36] <ApocalypticOni> how do i open a terminal?(sorry im really new to this)
[11:36] <skollie> judyc: and other machines on the LAN are resolving domain names properly?

[11:45] <Arpa121> OK how can I run .net in  the fucking ubuntu :((
[11:45] <Jowi> hi all. I've made a truecrypt file as a user. the owner of the file is the user. however, when I mount the file to a dir, the dir is now owned by root. any way to make the dir owned by the user that created the truecrypt file?
[11:46] <DaltonS> Arpa121, apt-get install Windows-XP
[11:46] <Jowi> !language | Arpa121
[11:46] <ubotu> Arpa121: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:46] <DaltonS> >.<
[11:46] <skollie> judyc: have a look at this thread and see if it helps - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2464416
[11:46] <Shin_Gouki> <[M] Fox> ok thx
[11:46] <judyc> skollie: Thanks. I'll go to have a read it.
[11:47] <Arpa121> no i Love linux :D
[11:47] <Shin_Gouki> <[M] Fox> which one u prefer?
[11:47] <Arpa121> I'd like run .net on that:D
[11:47] <[M] Fox> Shin_Gouki: you'd better depend on your own response ;-)
[11:47] <ProN00b> Arpa121, if you Love linux you don't want to run .net on it ^_^
[11:47] <lipocsi> wow it tooks me like 5 days to get starcraft running
[11:48] <DaltonS> Arpa121, if you ran .net in linux it would most likely require you to run as root just to have it loaded on the system :(\
[11:48] <Shin_Gouki> <[M] Fox> hu why?
[11:48] <lipocsi> from crazy resolution problems to iso crap
[11:48] <RAOF> Arpa121: Well, there's mono, which is an open-source .NET implementation
[11:48] <Jowi> Arpa121, mono is a .net implementation, no?
[11:48] <preem> guys, what packages take care of window decorations? Some of my look raelly ugly, and dunno what i uninstalled :x
[11:48] <Jowi> preem, if you use gnome it is "metacity"
[11:48] <Arpa121> yeah
[11:48] <ProN00b> Arpa121, yes, mono is a .net "implementation" (however you can't really implement a closed and proprietary system with no real specification)
[11:49] <Arpa121> AND can i setup MS-SQL Server 2005 on Linux ?:D
[11:49] <preem> jowi, metacity is installed, maybe metacity-themes ?
[11:49] <ProN00b> Arpa121, thats an absolute NO
[11:49] <RAOF> ProN00b: Except that .NET (or, rather, the CIL) is an open ECMA standard
[11:49] <[M] Fox> Arpa121: ROFL !! are ya crazy !?
[11:50] <Jowi> preem, that will contain the themes for metacity, yes.
[11:50] <ProN00b> RAOF, yeah, just like OpenXML is soon to become a iso standard...
[11:50] <preem> jowi, hm...i've been installing some custum themes lately, maybe that f00ked smth ?
[11:50] <preem> w8. let me make a few screens
[11:50] <skollie> judyc: this thread may also be useful - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=323747
[11:50] <Arpa121> C# is ECMA standard , isn't it?:D
[11:51] <pinoy1> elo... in what directory of the file system could i find the openoffice icons?
[11:51] <Jowi> preem, simply changing the theme to a working one in the gnome-theme-manager should take care of that. if one theme is not working, simply remove it from your ~/.themes dir.
[11:51] <RAOF> ProN00b: Yes, that would be crazy (although it may not happen).  However, the CIL is a well specified system :)
[11:51] <nj786> hey how do  u make the weather forecast appear 3d lookin on ur desktop?
[11:52] <Arpa121> I have question about Services on linux | how can i buil linux service?
[11:52] <pinoy1> elo... in what directory of the file system could i find the openoffice icons?
[11:52] <ProN00b> also, RAOF its a lot more to .net than what meets the eye, and there are lots of small and fine ways in what microsoft can and is subverting the open source implementation (remember, components are a huge part of a language while not beeing covered by the specs at all)
[11:53] <hylje> Arpa121: look up daemons
[11:53] <RAOF> ProN00b: You mean "libraries", yes?
[11:54] <pinoy1> elo... in what directory of the file system could i find the openoffice icons?
[11:54] <preem> jowi... ok thanks, will try
[11:54] <hollandlucas> good mornin
[11:55] <judyc> skollie: My problem get resolved! Thanks a lot. I didnt try to disable the IPv6 but just changed to another DNS server. Since I find I can ping any IP online outside the LAN, I change my DNS to a server I know but outside of the LAN.

[12:04] <vinneh> anyone use stylish in firefox
[12:04] <vinneh> i cant seem to get it to install
[12:04] <ProN00b> vega, also, there is propably some setting to get rid of that behavior
[12:04] <BadRobot> try iceweasel
[12:04] <ProN00b> vega, and you don't seem to have configured your screens exactly good
[12:04] <vinneh> mm
[12:04] <vinneh> good point
[12:05] <mundungus> vinneh: wats stylish(forgive my naivety)
[12:05] <kakado> vega: I tried that when I use two x-servers
[12:05] <vega> i can move the mouse from one screen to another  but i cant drag the browser window
[12:05] <vinneh> its like greasemonkey but geared towards page appearance
[12:05] <vinneh> it lets you do things like make google black, and digg.com grey
[12:05] <vinneh> etc
[12:05] <vega> i think i configured every thing right?
[12:05] <kakado> vega: my solution was to use two profiles in firefox
[12:05] <mundungus> vinneh:oow! does it work like an addon/extension?
[12:06] <vinneh> yes
[12:06] <BadRobot> can anyone kindly tell what is the command line edit the reposories lines?
[12:06] <vinneh> its an extension
[12:06] <vinneh> and then
[12:06] <vega> kakado: mm thats might do the trick
[12:06] <vinneh> you go to userscripts.org
[12:06] <vinneh> and it automaticly recognises script code
[12:06] <mundungus> vinneh:k,thanx
[12:06] <BadRobot> i'm getting duplicate lines on the synaptic
[12:06] <vinneh> and lets you uimport it
[12:06] <vinneh> np
[12:06] <ProN00b> vega, when i had my dual screens configured i could open two firefox windows on both screens without problems
[12:06] <mundungus> vinneh: so,how does it improve the appearance of a page?
[12:06] <vinneh> ima boot into linux and instal iceweasel
[12:07] <rambo3> BadRobot, edit them by hand
[12:07] <kakado> ProN00b: you probably used Xinerama
[12:07] <vinneh> well
[12:07] <rambo3> BadRobot, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:07] <ProN00b> kakado, yes, is there any disadvantage to that ?
[12:07] <vinneh> it uses CSS
[12:07] <BadRobot> maybe,if there is no other way?
[12:07] <ProN00b> vega, i suggest you to use Xinerama
[12:07] <BadRobot> thx rambo
[12:07] <vega> im using envy
[12:07] <BadRobot> how can do it automatically>?
[12:08] <gerro> magnetron: I know about those locations and I've been reading them and I've never setup a printer before on linux or any other OS. I have a lexmark x83 plugged in through usb. when I try parallel port # 1 it says database error foomatic not installed but I have that
[12:08] <mundungus> vinneh: but pages olready have scripts behind them that do everything,how does it add up to the appearance?
[12:08] <ProN00b> vega, what is envy ?
[12:08] <kakado> ProN00b: yes, when the monitors have different resolution I could not configure it right
[12:08] <vinneh> they are written with a specific page in mind
[12:08] <rambo3> !source-o-matic BadRobot
[12:08] <vinneh> so you get a digg.com script
[12:08] <Dominat0r> !ntfs

[12:08] <ProN00b> kakado, xinerama ?
[12:08] <vinneh> or a google.com scripts
[12:08] <Dominat0r> morning
[12:08] <vinneh> someone writes the script
[12:08] <Dominat0r> !ntfs-3g
[12:08] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:09] <vinneh> and then once you install the script in your browser
[12:09] <mundungus> vinneh: Aaaah! now i get,a'll check it out to know more,thanx again
[12:09] <vinneh> form then on
[12:09] <vinneh> kk
[12:09] <rambo3> !source-o-matic

[12:09] <vinneh> !!
[12:09] <Dominat0r> argh
[12:09] <ProN00b> vega, i don't know what envy is, but i guess it did a shitjob for you
[12:09] <Arpa121> does any relation between ubuntu and suse?
[12:09] <vinneh> !
[12:09] <neztiti> how can i edit the grup file
[12:10] <kakado> ProN00b: further, I use two different graphics cards

[12:10] <gerro> magnetron: do you know where I can get the gutenprint-foomatic package for the z42 driver so I can get printing functional with lexmark x83?
[12:10] <Arpa121> is*
[12:10] <vega> check the link
[12:10] <vega> http://www.lockergnome.com/nexus/linux/2007/06/18/dual-monitors-with-ubuntu
[12:10] <ProN00b> kakado, same here, i used different graphics cards as well as different resolutions on up to 3 screens at one time and xinerama worked flawlessly
[12:10] <gerro> !info gutenprint-foomatic
[12:10] <ubotu> Package gutenprint-foomatic does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:10] <gerro> what is feisty-seveas?
[12:11] <rambo3> ask ubotu
[12:11] <neztiti> how can i edit the grup file
[12:11] <Jowi> gerro, I think the package is called foomatic-db-gutenprint
[12:11] <ProN00b> vega, yeah, slowly watching that video now, i suggest you read a xinerama tutorial or something since that envy thing doesn't seem to work all too well
[12:12] <vega> i think ill do that  thanks.
[12:12] <gerro> Jowi: I installed that yet it still says I need gutenprint-foomatic package to use that driver
[12:13] <Paracha> Hi all friends

[12:14] <tupa> ysop alsaconf
[12:14] <gerro> ysop: choose which sound card you want with the mixer app
[12:15] <ProN00b> ysop, you could try blacklisting the driver

[12:18] <gerro> Jowi: thx for help but I still don't know what lpt is
[12:19] <Jowi> gerro, lpt = parallel port
[12:20] <xipi> hi. i just installed feisty
[12:20] <magnetron> congrats, xipi.
[12:20] <Housito> congrats and welcome to ubuntu
[12:20] <xipi> then i copied my old home above the new home. now my desktop is broken. how can i fix it?
[12:20] <xipi> thanks
[12:21] <Jowi> gerro, since you are connecting via USB you should not use LPT or parallel. last time I installed a usb printer I powercycled the printer, then restarted the computer and the gnome-cups-manager found it. I think it showed up as its name.
[12:21] <}matrix{> i have a problem..i dont know how to change my mac adress :( please help me
[12:21] <Ivis> Who can help me with fluxbox please
[12:21] <Jowi> gerro, can't help you atm since I have no usb printer nearby (and my son just woke up)
[12:21] <magnetron> }matrix{: if your network card supports it (and it's not a wifi card) then you could use ifconfig for ut
[12:22] <xipi> any idea?
[12:22] <skollie> xipi: what do you mean 'above' the new home?
[12:22] <xipi> copied old into new, overwriting the new files
[12:22] <magnetron> xipi: in what way is the desktop messed up?
[12:22] <xipi> replaced new files by old files

[12:23] <skollie> xipi: Bad idea since it would have attempted to use your old setting on the new config
[12:23] <magnetron> tell the channel what you want to do, Bartzy
[12:23] <xipi> magnetron, GNOME's top and bottom bar have gone.
[12:23] <lngt> xipi: rm -rf ~/.gnome2/
[12:23] <lngt> :D
[12:23] <vinneh> bartzy whats teh
[12:23] <xipi> lngt, what will it do?
[12:24] <Bartzy> magnetron, vinneh, I have XP and ubuntu, on the same physical SATA disk... 2 different partitions. I also have 2 IDE drives with only NTFS data on them...  partitions...
[12:24] <xipi> skollie, didn't know better. now, i do
[12:24] <vinneh> ok..
[12:24] <Bartzy> magnetron, vinneh, I've messed up my grub... first installed it by mistake on the MBR of one of the IDE drives, then installed it on the MBR of the sata and since then I get "Error 22: No such partition" when trying to boot ubuntu from the grub menu.
[12:25] <}matrix{> magnetron yes i have etho0 and etho1
[12:25] <rambo3> xipi, alt+f2 > killall gnome-panel  , > gnome-panel
[12:25] <}matrix{> on etho0 i must change i think.. but i dont know how..
[12:25] <vinneh> lol
[12:25] <skollie> xipi; of course. we all learn from our mistakes...
[12:25] <lngt> xipi: You'll get new config (I hope)
[12:25] <flaccid_> i find interface logical names like to change themselves on linux
[12:25] <vinneh> ok
[12:25] <magnetron> }matrix{: use ifconfig
[12:25] <flaccid_> sux really
[12:25] <vinneh> you can still boot
[12:25] <flaccid_> or maybe its just ubuntu
[12:25] <xipi> lngt, rambo3, which will work better?
[12:25] <vinneh> what you ned to do
[12:25] <flaccid_> dj wodger rules

[12:27] <Bartzy> magnetron, vinneh, someone here told me that grub sees the physical drives like in the device.map file. (hd0) (hd1)... and the device.map file is mapping the drives like they are in the boot sequence in the BIOS... That means that (hd0) is the first boot in the BIOS.. meaning my SATA... (hd1) is the 2nd boot.. meaning my CDROM (lol)... so I deleted every line in the device.map file besides the line /dev/sda (hd0) ... (it was /dev/sda (hd2) before, and (hd0) (h

[12:28] <Bartzy> magnetron, it doesnt help... I'm in live cd right now....
[12:28] <ting__> I have another question, may be it is too stupid, but i am new using ubuntu
[12:28] <equium> hey. im on a toshiba with ATI SB-450 and after adding "options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba position_fix=1 probe_mask=3" to alsa-base I have sound in speakers, mic work, but headphone-jack doesn't, tips?
[12:28] <ting__> why i can not get inside ubuntu under root ??
[12:28] <vinneh> righ t so you can chroot to your real install right?
[12:28] <netyire> ting_: root is disabled by default
[12:28] <magnetron> !root | ting__
[12:28] <ubotu> ting__: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[12:29] <}matrix{> !ifconfig | }matrix{
[12:29] <ApocalypticOni> is there away that i can get more than 2 workspace screens?
[12:29] <ting__> umm thanks guys
[12:29] <ting__> i am gonna check that url
[12:29] <netyire> ting_: this is because it is thought to be insecure to login as root (aka: windows Xp and earlier), hence sudo is used to gain temporary root privileges instead
[12:29] <vinneh> bartzy
[12:29] <flaccid_> ubotu is on drugs, well at least the person that edited rootsudo
[12:29] <vinneh> are you chrooted now?

[12:30] <ting__> ok i thought that, but in fedora always when you are installing it always ask you for the root password
[12:30] <ting__> however in ubuntu i didnt see that
[12:30] <Bartzy> vinneh, just live...
[12:30] <ApocalypticOni>  is there away that i can get more than 2 workspace screens?
[12:30] <netyire> ApocalypticOni: yes
[12:30] <netyire> just change the preferences
[12:30] <ApocalypticOni> netyire how?
[12:30] <ApocalypticOni> kthx
[12:30] <netyire> ApocalypticOni: are you using Desktop effects now?
[12:30] <hollandlucas> will they use the gnome control centre by default in Gutsy?
[12:30] <vinneh> chroot onto your actual filesystem
[12:31] <Bartzy> vinneh, but I can ofcourse chroot .... I just don't know what to change in my menu.lst and my device.map... I also fucked up the fstab file.... everything in my system is fucked up :\ I think about reinstalling ubuntu and thats it :\
[12:31] <Bartzy> vinneh okay done
[12:31] <vinneh> then find your boot directory
[12:31] <netyire> ApocalypticOni, if now, just right click the workspace switcher in the taskbar and change it to as many as you want
[12:31] <netyire> *if not

[12:32] <Bartzy> vinneh - okay...
[12:32] <vinneh> grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
[12:32] <hollandlucas> my question is: Will they get rid of the "System" menu items and replace them with the control centre
[12:32] <Bartzy> Error 15: File not found
[12:32] <Bartzy> got that vinneh ?
[12:33] <vinneh> lol
[12:33] <GreatWizard> a question :-> How can I edit the menu.lst?
[12:33] <vinneh> i use nano
[12:33] <vinneh> ok bartzy
[12:33] <vinneh> so you can see the boot dir tho
[12:33] <vinneh> right/
[12:33] <vinneh> ?
[12:33] <GreatWizard> when using the linux from the installation CD it doesn't give me permission to write there
[12:33] <Bartzy> vinneh, yeah, I chrooted my filesystem
[12:33] <netyire> GreatWizard,  or just right click the Applications menu -> edit
[12:33] <GreatWizard> I can't
[12:34] <vinneh> unfortunately im in macos right now so i cand do this myself ill switch in a min if its not helpful lol
[12:34] <netyire> hmm
[12:34] <vinneh> ok
[12:34] <netyire> sudo?
[12:34] <vinneh> if you cd into your boot dir
[12:34] <GreatWizard> I can't write there
[12:34] <Bartzy> vinneh yeah ?
[12:34] <vinneh> you will obviously see your menu.lst
[12:34] <Bartzy> vinneh yep
[12:34] <vinneh> ok i think
[12:34] <vinneh> if you type
[12:34] <vinneh> mount
[12:34] <vinneh> it will tell you the physical device
[12:34] <vinneh> of your filesystem
[12:34] <vinneh> like
[12:35] <Bartzy> vinneh - I know my phsical device... /dev/sda3 ... I just don't know what grub thinks is my phyical.. (hd0) ,(hd1) etc...
[12:35] <vinneh> oh
[12:35] <g[r] eek> hi guys which startup/boot script can i edit so that various paths are set?
[12:36] <vinneh> ok
[12:36] <vinneh> if i was you
[12:36] <GreatWizard> Bartzy - > If I'm not mistaken the bios boot order is the hd0 ...
[12:36] <vinneh> hangon
[12:36] <vinneh> ill boot into linux
[12:36] <vinneh> and look at mine
[12:37] <magnetron> g[r] eek: depends on what application will need to access it
[12:37] <GreatWizard> anyone know how can I edit the menu.lst? (if i try from the livecd it doesn't give me write permission)
[12:38] <g[r] eek> magnetron: i am launching jboss (application server) as a startup-service, which has its own start script in init.d, but its not loading properly because it cannot find the "java" path. so i want to set the JAVA_HOME path somewhere before jboss is started.
[12:38] <ting__>  What is the meaning of that: now and download.  The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
[12:38] <ting__> to /tmp.
[12:38] <ting__>  ?
[12:38] <ting__> I am trying to install Netbeans but i get that error
[12:38] <lkthomas> guys, I realize that generic ubuntu kernel got some module missing, how could I just compile those module ?
[12:38] <ting__> and doesnt allow me to continues with the installation
[12:38] <magnetron> g[r] eek: edit the startscript in init.d
[12:38] <Bartzy> GreatWizard - are you sure ? because now my SATA disk is 1st boot (linux is in it), and I changed the device.map so the sata will be mapped as (hd0)... and the menu.lst as well... and now when I try to boot ubuntu from grub menu, it says that it can't boot from that partition (before that it said there's no such partition"
[12:38] <g[r] eek> magnetron: are you referring to the jboss script?
[12:39] <magnetron> g[r] eek: yep
[12:39] <GreatWizard> oh
[12:39] <ting__> ok whatever, forgot it
[12:39] <GreatWizard> then no
[12:39] <ting__> forget it
[12:39] <g[r] eek> magnetron: ok thanks. i was just wondering if i should be looking for some kind of global script like window's autoexec.bat

[12:41] <vinneh> then reinstall it
[12:41] <vinneh> from scratch
[12:41] <vinneh> it should automaticly set itself up to boot the currently mounted filesystem

[12:50] <vinneh> theres a keyring manager app
[12:50] <vinneh> under administration
[12:51] <vinneh> try keytool
[12:51] <vinneh> ?
[12:52] <vinneh> lol thats prolly not it

[12:55] <Bartzy> vinneh - u have only 1 drive ?
[12:55] <vinneh> yah'
[12:55] <vinneh> this machine
[12:56] <vinneh> is a macbook
[12:56] <vinneh> :D
[12:56] <Bartzy> someone can help me using acl permissions (I mean permissions for a 1 user/group) ?
[12:56] <iris> vinneh: i just installed ubuntu on a macbook pro yesterday
[12:56] <Bartzy> faclset doesn't work well... I am trying to use Applications > System Tools > Nvidia X Server Settings and set my TV to work... but it says something with permissions :(
[12:56] <vinneh> iris you should check out rEFIt
[12:57] <vinneh> its FANTASTIC
[12:57] <xanne> hey guys I installed the closed source ATI drivers but the configuration application didnt install
[12:57] <jenda> vinneh: sorry :)
[12:57] <iris> vinneh: isn't it just a boot menu?
[12:58] <jenda> vinneh: I have this thing with ignoring beeps in this channel because they are usually !ops :D
[12:58] <Bartzy> why my Nvidia X server Settings can remove the old Xorg.conf back up ?
[12:58] <vinneh> yes and a gpt/mbr sync tool, and a shell,
[12:58] <vinneh> it can boot from partitions not labeled as bootable
[12:58] <vinneh> its very useful if you trippleboot
[12:58] <Bartzy> anyone... ? :] 
[12:59] <dropety> Frogzoo: transparancy is handled by a composite manager
[12:59] <vinneh> what
[12:59] <skollie> what is it you want to do Bartzy ?
[12:59] <vinneh> bartzy you had axorg.conf backup
[12:59] <vinneh> and it deleted it ?
[12:59] <vinneh> thats strange
[01:00] <jenda> vinneh: I'm in gnome... but the keyring manager doesn't seem to do anything.
[01:00] <xanne> whats the commad for the ATI GUI comfiguration/
[01:01] <picaboo> hi anyone know which i should compile as first from this archive xfce-4.4.1-src.tar.bz2??
[01:01] <Frogzoo> dropety: yeah, seems like overkill just to run a clock in the foreground
[01:02] <xanne> whats the commad for the ATI GUI comfiguration/
[01:03] <dropety> Frogzoo: actually i see no option is running cairo-clock otherwise. xcompmgr is very buggy but i tollerate it
[01:03] <vinneh> jenda what happenst if you type gpg --list-keys
[01:03] <tupa> picaboo, what do you need to compile?, xfce is already in repository
[01:03] <picaboo> tupa: i hace slow machine
[01:03] <tupa> picaboo, so?
[01:03] <tupa> it is already in the repository as I said
[01:03] <hollandlucas> has anyone in here already tried compiz fusion under feisty?
[01:04] <rausb0> picaboo: then you'd probably want to use xfce3 (gtk1 based)
[01:04] <gnomefreak> vinneh: it lists all the gpg keys you have (yours and others)
[01:04] <xanne> whats the command for the ATI GUI configuration?
[01:04] <jajadavid> hello
[01:04] <jajadavid> what do i need to install to open a rar?
[01:04] <tupa> !hey
[01:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hey - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:04] <vinneh> !keyring
[01:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keyring - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:05] <tmske> Hi, I have the error cannot connect to backend server with mythtv, could this be because I changed the mythtv user password?
[01:05] <vinneh> lol
[01:05] <Frogzoo> vinneh: seahorse?
[01:05] <xanne> whats the command for the ATI GUI configuration?
[01:06] <Selrach> I am having this error when I use fglrxinfo: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:06] <Selrach> could someone help me?
[01:06] <vinneh> frogzoo someone wanted to "reactivate" theri keyring
[01:06] <picaboo> xfce from repository is rather slow so i want to compile xfce. btw xfce3 does not look so well as xfce4
[01:06] <vinneh> im just trying to find somehting about it but i dont think you can actually do that?
[01:07] <vinneh> if theres a key, its active
[01:07] <vinneh> isnt that how it works?
[01:08] <b0ha> Selrach,  i have the same problem
[01:08] <tunnuz> hi all
[01:08] <Selrach> ATI card too?
[01:08] <xanne> I love how every request i have made has been ignored..
[01:08] <tunnuz> do you know the name of that package that installs the main developer compiling tools
[01:08] <b0ha> yes
[01:08] <tunnuz> i can't remember the name
[01:08] <tunnuz> and i'm getting some troubles installing some c based perl modules
[01:08] <b0ha> i updated from 6.06 to 6.10
[01:09] <b0ha> and now i got that
[01:09] <Selrach> I
[01:09] <Selrach> i'm using 7.04...
[01:09] <jenda> vinneh: well, it lists all the keys, of course :D
[01:09] <Frogzoo> vinneh: pretty much
[01:09] <jenda> vinneh: it's not that, it's the thing that fills in the passwords in all the gpg and ssh prompts that pop up that I need to set up right. It's a gnome thing.
[01:10] <xanne> Ok  how about sound capture I cannot get any applications to recognise any sound input.
[01:10] <Selrach> whats the error even mean
[01:10] <magnetron> !sound | xanne
[01:10] <ubotu> xanne: 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

[01:13] <blackest> hi i have totally messed up my perl installation any idea how to fix it
[01:13] <JimQode> I have some questions to ask about Rosetta. What is the right channel?
[01:14] <b0ha> what means create .deb packages?

[01:14] <b0ha> do i have to put it in some file? or run in terminal?
[01:17] <iyigun> Hi, I have a small networking problem.
[01:17] <disposable> i've installed feisty on a new computer with sata harddrive and intel ICH7 controller. grub-install went without error, yet i'm unable to boot the new system. i'm not using the disk in legacy mode(i tried that too). i get no bootable disk. :(  can anybody help?
[01:17] <Anlar> infinity89: the drivers should exist for most of the cards already
[01:18] <infinity89> not for x-fi cards...
[01:18] <iyigun> I can connect to internet using my router. But if I connect modem directly without router, internet doesn't work anymore
[01:18] <iyigun> it cannot find dhcpserver.
[01:18] <Anlar> infinity89: seriously? well, creative has always sucked with their drivers.. let me google a bit though :D
[01:18] <Bothered> iyigun: try enabling roaming mode for your wired connection
[01:19] <iyigun> i tried that already
[01:19] <iyigun> nothing changed.
[01:19] <Bothered> iyigun: your modem may not permit switching between devices (possibly, but I think unlikely)
[01:19] <iyigun> when i restart networking I see "No DHCPOFFERS received."
[01:20] <Anlar> infinity89: well, there are alsa howto pages for x-fi... I don't know if all the features are working well but there should be some sort of support, at least with bleeding edge alsa
[01:20] <iyigun> When I restart computer and start windows, internet works
[01:21] <iyigun> windows can handle modem and router. it doesn't complain.
[01:21] <iyigun> So I think there's some settings are wrong in ubuntu.
[01:23] <Anlar> infinity89: and at the same time.. yes, many pages claiming that it doesn't work. :)
[01:23] <tunnuz> bye
[01:23] <xoRock> !ask why everytime i copy many files at once to my flash disk random file is corupted
[01:24] <Anlar> infinity89: it is likely that 4front's OSS actually supports x-fi
[01:24] <xoRock> why everytime i copy many files at once to my flash disk random file is corupted
[01:25] <Anlar> infinity89: if it does not, nothing does. then it's all up to creative.. which will drop the ball as usual :)
[01:25] <xoRock> i copied .deb files from archive folder to my flash disk, so i dont need to update trough internet on my other comp
[01:26] <iyigun_> Do you have any ideas why there's no DHCPOFFER from modem?
[01:26] <andcor> If I want to share my xserver with other users so that they can set the DISPLAY variable in their terminal and run stuff on my x, how can I do that ?
[01:28] <_6stringkng_> whats a good bit torrent client for ubuntu?
[01:28] <iyigun_> azureus us fine
[01:28] <Anlar> andcor: man xhost
[01:29] <andcor> thanks
[01:29] <xoRock> _6stringkng_:  amule

[02:12] <switchcat> damn. :( had an ubuntu install freeze in the middle of the night, I think.  Last I saw it was up to a little over 60%... but it seemed to be too slow all along.
[02:12] <torhu> xoRock: are you saying that I can install from the CD, and then boot the HD install from the install CD?
[02:13] <xoRock> torhu, doesn't it support floppy? <--- what do u mean?
[02:13] <torhu> a boot floppy?

[02:26] <xoRock> torhu, u can have dual boot with xp
[02:26] <tokyoahead> hi guys... I have a USB-HD case here with a HD that i took from a Raid-1 NAS... how can i mount it? i do not know what device it is
[02:26] <torhu> I'm not interested in a dual boot
[02:27] <magnetron> tokyoahead: it will only be useful in that RAID unless you reformat it.
[02:28] <xoRock> torhu, and if u want to fix  bootloader in case something happen just use XP cd and recovery console type /fixmbr
[02:28] <stefg> torhu: ubotu is the bot, if you bother to read to the end of the first linked page you'll find your question answered
[02:28] <torhu> nope
[02:28] <tokyoahead> magnetron: really? duh... I am a bit at a losss... I bought two new larger HDs for my NAS... How can I transfer the data to the new HDs then?
[02:29] <torhu> my question is quite simple:  at the and of ubuntu's installation process, will I be asked where I want to be bootloader to be?  HD, CD, floppy?
[02:29] <stefg> torhu: to have grub (the bootloader) installed to any other than the default location you need the alternate (text-mode) installer. Desktop will alway overwrite the MBR of the first hd
[02:29] <Ronin[] > i just downloaded firefox as tar.gz and tried to replace the old files
[02:30] <torhu> stefg: thank you
[02:30] <Ronin[] > but i can't replace the directories /usr/share/firefox/
[02:30] <torhu> is the text mode installer documented on the web?
[02:30] <magnetron> tokyoahead: depends on the NAS, but one method that will work for sure is to first make a backup of the data with the hard drives still in the NAS.
[02:31] <Ronin[] > mv tells me, it couldn't move the directory in it's own subdirectory

[02:31] <ubotu> torhu: 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
[02:32] <torhu> will I have to configure grub manually? I've done so before, but I don't feel like doing it again.  I just need linux for testing a cross-platform app
[02:33] <torhu> and can it install the boot loader to a CD?
[02:33] <stefg> torhu: why not get vmware-player and a preinstalled ubuntu-vm ?
[02:33] <torhu> probably not
[02:33] <torhu> ok, is that free?
[02:33] <stefg> torhu: yes
[02:33] <xoRock> stefg, i have alternate cd, i think i've never ask to install mbr on floppy
[02:33] <torhu> will it run at a usable speed on my athlon 1.4 crap pc?

[02:40] <kbrooks> yesterday wireless was working fine
[02:40] <kbrooks> now its not.
[02:40] <aroo> kbrooks: not enough information
[02:41] <kbrooks> aroo: what infi do you want me to give?
[02:41] <magnetron> zylche: there are some companies that could help you.... but that would include removing the cylinders from the hard drive.
[02:41] <stefg> zylche: as i read, mc (midnight commander) has a ext2 undelete feature, that might work with ext3 also
[02:41] <aroo> kbrooks: i don't want any inf, you need to say which card you have, what you have tried, what you have changed, anything that helps me help you
[02:41] <Bartzy> Vox, aroo - what are u using (for xvid/divx movies + subtitles... songs etc) ?
[02:42] <VoX> Bartzy: usually mplayer
[02:42] <VoX> but thats just my preference *shrug*
[02:42] <kbrooks> aroo: okay, i have not changed anything iirc, only installed bcm43xx-fwcutter and rebooted
[02:42] <magnetron> stefg, zylche: any ext2 undelete software will not work with ext3, because ext3 zeros out the block pointers
[02:43] <kbrooks> magnetron, umm
[02:43] <megatill> hi, there're ao programm to convert mov-files to smv files? its for my mp3-player
[02:43] <kbrooks> magnetron, you haven't explained why well
[02:43] <Bartzy> VoX thanks. Is there a special release of mplayer for ubuntu, or just get it at synaptic ?
[02:43] <kbrooks> magnetron, a link won't help ;-) turn that into a clear and understandable reason
[02:43] <stefg> magnetron: i pointed him already to the ext3 faq stating that. i just had some google hits (in german) where users report partial success with mc's undelete
[02:44] <VoX> Bartzy: just grab it through synaptic
[02:44] <ppjurij> epson epl6200 do not work!
[02:44] <kbrooks> aroo: i answered yes to the question and it downloaded firmware from the internet thru my ethernet connection which i had plugged in at the time
[02:44] <Bartzy> VoX , synaptic is updated ? I mean, if I see "Mplayer" there, it's the last ver ?
[02:45] <magnetron> stefg, zylche, kbrooks: the reason that ext2 undelete won't work is that ext3 removes the traces of where the file used to be. it would have no idea where to look for the file.
[02:45] <VoX> Bartzy: probably the most current.
[02:45] <gerro> Bartzy VoX: repository not updated that often you should check the site if you need some new feature
[02:45] <xuyi> hello ,i am chinese

[02:46] <gerro> Bartzy: there are extra themes if you search synaptic also you might want to check your desktop managers website
[02:46] <skollie> better than my chinese, I'm sure xuyi
[02:46] <ppjurij> Help! Epson epl6200l don't work!
[02:46] <Bartzy> gerro whats the desktop managers website ?
[02:46] <xuyi> thanks ubotu
[02:46] <kbrooks> aroo: there is a wifi combination. i checked in the bios and that combination is turned on. so, i start over again, and then i see my wifi light
[02:47] <gerro> Bartzy: you using ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, fluxbuntu or what?
[02:47] <Bartzy> ubuntu
[02:47] <kbrooks> aroo: it works up until GNOME starts again.
[02:47] <Bartzy> dont understand the difference between all the versions :] 
[02:47] <gerro> Bartzy: then its gnome so check gnome site or google for gnome themes
[02:47] <xuyi> but i don't understand your mean ,ubotu
[02:47] <Bartzy> oh.. okay thanks
[02:47] <aroo> kbrooks: how can you tell it works before gnome?
[02:47] <Bartzy> gerro - gnome is better then KDE / XCFE ?
[02:47] <gerro> Bartzy: xubuntu pwnz that the difference :P
[02:48] <kbrooks> aroo: the combination turns off and on the wifi
[02:48] <MoLE_> torhu, have a look at wubi: http://wubi-installer.org/

[02:49] <Bartzy> gerro - KDE crashes ? and Xcfe isn't a gui, right ? It's like X , an interface... ?
[02:49] <torhu> MoLE_: thanks, but I don't want to touch the mbr
[02:49] <kbrooks> IndyGunFreak, yup
[02:49] <THJ> They should turn on font smoothing in Ubuntu by default, it looks much nicer.
[02:49] <kbrooks> Bartzy, xfce is a gui
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> kbrooks: i'm thinking it would to.
[02:49] <B-777> Can anyone tell me why when I try to play a Mp3 in rhythmbox, it tells me the mp3 file is not a valid audio stream?
[02:49] <aroo> kbrooks: I only have experience with ndiswrapper for wireless cards

[02:50] <geoaxis> hello people
[02:50] <Hor|zon> If you know how to customise, Gnome beats any other OS in terms of looks
[02:50] <kbrooks> aroo: it was easy to install wireless, but i am not talking about that.
[02:50] <MoLE_> torhu, Wubi doesn't modify any partition or bootloader
[02:50] <Hor|zon> just don't rely on defaults
[02:50] <geoaxis> i have time.h on my ubuntu , but cat do man time.h
[02:50] <gerro> Hor|zon: gnome themes will work on xubuntu though
[02:50] <kbrooks> aroo: i am talking about the general use after shutdown and reboot.
[02:50] <geoaxis> any ideas which package i need to install
[02:50] <gerro> Hor|zon: gnome is also not an OS but a graphical interface
[02:50] <THJ> Hor|zon: I really wish they turned on font smoothing, with no hinting. It'd seriously help the first impression. =|
[02:51] <torhu> MoLE_: from the faq: "Wubi adds an entry to the Windows boot menu which allows you to run Linux."
[02:51] <B-777> Golly this kernel is taking forever to recompile LOL
[02:51] <torhu> maybe that's not the mbr
[02:51] <Bartzy> gerro - so most of the people uses xubuntu ?
[02:51] <kbrooks> aroo: ping
[02:51] <aroo> kbrooks: I am just judging your problem based on the last thing you did that changed things, which was installing that firmware hack
[02:51] <kbrooks> torhu, not the mbr.
[02:51] <geoaxis> Hor|zon,  Gnome is Desktop not OS
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> B-777: why are you recompiling a kernel?
[02:51] <kbrooks> torhu, it's boot.ini.
[02:51] <kbrooks> torhu, in windows
[02:51] <MoLE_> torhu, it uses the existing windows MBR bootloader, just boot.ini
[02:51] <Hor|zon> geoaxis, gerro, well duh, I didn't say it was
[02:51] <gerro> Bartzy: nah ubuntu the main one, xubuntu has that rep for being only for people whom don't have a massive system for gnome
[02:51] <torhu> thanks, just wanted to be sure
[02:52] <geoaxis> Hor|zon,  >> Gnome beats any other OS in terms of looks
[02:52] <torhu> a beta version of mandrake screwed up my mbr a few years ago
[02:52] <Hor|zon> yes, as in osx and windows
[02:52] <B-777> Indy: I meant this program, not a kernal...wrong use of terms by a Linux noob LOL
[02:52] <torhu> I lost everything on the HD :(
[02:52] <kbrooks> torhu, it does not need to modify the mbr anyway when it has boot.ini
[02:52] <MoLE_> torhu, it's also easy to test in vmware player - www.easyvmx.com can set you up with appropriate blank VM to test it with
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> B-777: what program?
[02:52] <kbrooks> torhu, hm? the HD data was still there, but simply hidden from you.
[02:53] <geoaxis> Hor|zon ; well i think its possible to port Gnome to Windows and MacOS
[02:53] <megatill> hi, there're ao programm to convert mov-files to smv files? its for my mp3-player
[02:53] <torhu> kbrooks: yes, but partition magic was unable to fix it
[02:53] <magnetron> megatill: maybe avidemux will help you. install it with synaotic
[02:53] <B-777> Indy: Qtopia Core
[02:53] <geoaxis> Hor|zon,  but KDE is working on that more thrroughly
[02:53] <Hor|zon> geoaxis, I said it beats the windows gui and osx's...
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[02:53] <magnetron> *Synaptic, megatill
[02:53] <megatill> thanks magnetron
[02:54] <geoaxis> Hor|zon,  have you used Mac OS X
[02:54] <megatill> thanks
[02:54] <Bartzy> How do I make a certain format (like ogg, mp3, avi, etc) to play default in a certain program ? like mplayer for example
[02:54] <torhu> that version of mandrake used a non-windows-compatible format for the mbr.  Maybe the worst idea ever
[02:54] <Hor|zon> geoaxis, I have it
[02:54] <Hor|zon> and my ubuntu desktops beat it easy
[02:54] <gerro> Hor|zon: have you even tried any other open source desktop managers besides gnome?
[02:54] <Anlar> Bartzy: right click on the file manager and look at the properties -> tabs "open with.."
[02:54] <kbrooks> torhu, umm... grub/lilo is not windows compatible.
[02:54] <Hor|zon> gerro, yes, lots
[02:54] <torhu> kbrooks: sorry, I meant the partition table
[02:54] <geoaxis> well then its your opnion , which some people may disagree with
[02:55] <Anlar> grub/lilo can both boot all windowses, but it's better to use the windows bootloader as some automatic repair things forcibly re-install it anyways
[02:55] <geoaxis> Gnome tries to follow what OSX like KDE tries to follow Windows
[02:55] <kbrooks> torhu, oh, then my statement still stands with everything replaced.
[02:55] <stefg> Hor|zon, geoaxis : :-) Desktop wars go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:55] <Bartzy> Anlar, and in the shell ?
[02:55] <Hor|zon> geoaxis, yes it's an opinion, but no one has disagreed with it after seeing any of my desktops
[02:55] <gerro> Hor|zon: I was considering a very lite setup for small laptop maybe fluxbox or icewm, do you know of any? its got very low memory
[02:55] <geoaxis> any who , i am unable to do man time.h , any
[02:55] <kbrooks> !find man

[02:58] <netyire> Bartzy, whats the sound output?
[02:58] <Frogzoo> NmeA|Boa: install 32 bit
[02:58] <netyire> is it alsa?
[02:58] <Frogzoo> NmeA|Boa: or - setup a 32 bit chroot
[02:58] <Ronin[] > Bartzy is it a mplayer Problem, or a problem with your entire system ?
[02:58] <netyire> is the mixer enabled?
[02:59] <Hor|zon> gerro, here's some http://flickr.com/photos/21634991@N00/ kinda old but still decent

[02:59] <FruitieX> hi
[02:59] <geoaxis> is there a command to print unix time stamp (ie the integer value)
[02:59] <Bartzy> netyire - There is sound with Ryhtembox (not with totem and mplayer)
[02:59] <Frogzoo> geoaxis: date ?
[03:00] <Bartzy> Ronin[]  - There is sound with Ryhtembox player.. not with totem and mplayer.... when I try to play videos in totem, it only plays the video and no audio ... with mplayer - nothing... gives an error about the video
[03:00] <gerro> Hor|zon: here a pic of mine: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4zmgmrp and http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=62407cj
[03:00] <Hor|zon> gerro, they say 2007 but it's actually 2006 so some software might be old
[03:00] <netyire> Bartzy, hmm check your sound preferences
[03:00] <netyire> and the audio output for mplayer
[03:01] <Bartzy> netyire - what's there to check ? there is sound from ryhtembox, so the sound perfs are supposed to be fine...
[03:01] <Bartzy> something is wrong with codecs or totem/mplayer... :\
[03:01] <netyire> hmm
[03:01] <netyire> is it with all files?
[03:01] <Bartzy> netyire, seems so
[03:01] <netyire> hmm
[03:01] <gerro> Bartzy: check synaptic for gstreamer and install all packages except dbg and doc
[03:01] <netyire> what kinda files?
[03:02] <Bartzy> okay gerro
[03:02] <Bartzy> gerro - I read that gstreamer is not very good.... reading was wrong ? :)
[03:02] <geoaxis> Frogzoo,  well i dont see nay option in date which prints it as unix time stamp
[03:02] <geoaxis> ie as a long int
[03:02] <sacater> well, if you like your legs attached to your body
[03:02] <gerro> Bartzy: gstreamer is codec packs for totem
[03:02] <sacater> sorry :P
[03:02] <skollie> bartzy: in mplayer, set your codecs to ffmpeg and see if that helps
[03:02] <sacater> wrong channe l:p
[03:02] <gerro> Bartzy: however some prefer xine based media players or mplayer
[03:02] <sacater> :P
[03:03] <gerro> Bartzy: they require more configuring but are seeing some major development
[03:03] <megatill> magnetron, and onther programm? it avidemux couldn't export it as smv
[03:03] <Bartzy> gerro - what's xine ?
[03:03] <Bartzy> skollie , I don't have ffmpeg in mplayer
[03:03] <ompaul> NOTICE: I am about to remove a large amount of bans
[03:03] <Hor|zon> gerro, hmm, there's just something I don't like about  QT widgets even after I try to customise it
[03:03] <gerro> Bartzy: a basic interface model for other media players to be built upon. like a line of media players that are developing
[03:04] <gerro> ah someone ban the spammer :P
[03:04] <magnetron> what are you DOING ompaul?
[03:04] <megatill> lol gerro
[03:04] <sn0> spring clean \o
[03:04] <sacater> wtf
[03:04] <gerro> hey wasn't that my IP there?
[03:04] <kbrooks> magnetron, he is unbanning
[03:04] <sacater> ompaul: ?
[03:04] <Phlosten> weeee
[03:04] <ompaul> removing a lots of old ops
[03:04] <gnomefreak> sacater: removing bans
[03:04] <ompaul> ips
[03:04] <sacater> that is a lot of bans...
[03:04] <gnomefreak> 300+
[03:04] <magnetron> kbrooks: he must be removing all bans at once
[03:04] <kbrooks> ompaul, why do you remove old bans?
[03:04] <gnomefreak> 4 at a time
[03:05] <skollie> bartzy: then you have to install mplayer codecs
[03:05] <stefg> to make room for neew low-lifes again :-)
[03:05] <Anlar> just use /ignore * modes and it's all quieter
[03:05] <Hor|zon> you should do it at night universal time
[03:05] <Bartzy> gerro - there are millions of gstreamer packages to install in synaptic .. some of them are already installed
[03:05] <Hor|zon> it's th eonly fair way
[03:05] <Ronin[] > anyone has an idea how to get my folders replaced ? i want to make some updates not via pakages
[03:05] <gerro> bartzy: if you aren't into all that video editing stuff might want to just stick with totem and some gstreamer packages like me :)
[03:05] <Bartzy> gerro, There isn't a package that have all this ?
[03:05] <Bartzy> gerro - I'm watching a lot of xvid movies etc...
[03:06] <Bartzy> gerro, so I want a good player with good subtitles options
[03:06] <netyire> barnie, try vlc?
[03:06] <gerro> Bartzy: never heard of xvid and no clue about subtitling, I've read a few guides talking about mplayer subtitling features though
[03:06] <duelboot> I recently upgraded to fiesty and now my DVD and CDROM drives are not mounting...k3b can't burn to them, but freevo will play a movie if I put it in...but still no mounting...can anyone assist?
[03:06] <netyire> whoops *Bartzy, sorry was the tab autocomplete
[03:07] <duelboot> hello netyire I'm back again
[03:07] <torhu> anyone know if vmware tools are free?
[03:07] <gerro> duelboot: I have a similar issue such as what you describe, try doing lshw and see what it reports of any cdrom like drives
[03:07] <kbrooks> okay.
[03:07] <megatill> magnetron, and onther programm? it avidemux couldn't export it as smv
[03:07] <Hor|zon> Bartzy, there's no "one player". Get mplayer, vlc player and you already have totem
[03:07] <duelboot> torhu, I believe they are
[03:07] <stefg> Ronin[] : i haven't followed all of the converstaion, but i got the impression you are trying potentially hazardous things on your system. Feel free to tinker, but have a *backup* first
[03:07] <Bartzy> netyire, vlc is better than mplayer ? :\
[03:07] <torhu> mplayer is better
[03:07] <gerro> duelboot: I think the problem is they are on the same port or something and udev set it up wrong.
[03:07] <duelboot> gerro...did that...it finds it, but still I can't even manually mount them
[03:07] <ompaul> gnomefreak, call that a removal ;-)
[03:07] <netyire> duelboot: hello!
[03:07] <Bartzy> Well I just don't get it ! why Mplayer and totem doesn't play sound and Ryhtembox does ??
[03:08] <gerro> duelboot: does it automount anything onto your desktop when you place media into it?
[03:08] <duelboot> gerro, anyway to auto reconfigure for fstab?
[03:08] <gnomefreak> :)
[03:08] <duelboot> gerro, yes, but it still tells me it's not mounted!!!
[03:08] <netyire> Bartzy, perhaps its something to do with codecs...
[03:08] <gerro> duelboot: I have a wusb54gsc wireless usb adapter and lexmark x83 printer I had to set custom rules for in udev, I'm guessing something similar to that
[03:08] <duelboot> gerro, I can play music cds and watch movies though...oddd
[03:08] <netyire> Bartzy, try VLC
[03:08] <netyire> Bartzy, http://www.videolan.org
[03:09] <netyire> !vlc
[03:09] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[03:09] <netyire> !mplayer
[03:09] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[03:09] <Bartzy> netyire , what codecs mplayer uses ? gstreamer as well ? netyire, I'm getting it now via synaptic
[03:09] <gerro> duelboot: that is very odd.. perhaps do mess with fstab some
[03:09] <Frogzoo> geoaxis: date +%s
[03:09] <netyire> Bartzy, I think mplayer includes its own codecs with the package
[03:09] <netyire> Bartzy, totem relies on gstreamer or xine
[03:09] <netyire> hmm
[03:09] <newuser00> will Thunar work well with GNOME?
[03:09] <netyire> Bartzy, try install totem-xine
[03:09] <Bartzy> netyirem, okay I'm getting vlc now
[03:09] <netyire> newuser00, yes I think so
[03:09] <netyire> Bartzy, tell me how it goes!
[03:10] <gerro> duelboot: though I have this ati radeon video card in this computer working fine but it says in lshw its "unclaimed" I have no clue what that means but there are other devices like that, does it say that about your drive?
[03:10] <stefg> newuser00: it will work, but you need nautilus anyway, so why bother?
[03:10] <gerro> duelboot: I think its only using half the dedicated video ram in this comp :/
[03:10] <geoaxis> ahh thanks again Frogzoo
[03:10] <megatill> bye
[03:10] <newuser00> netyire, thank you =)
[03:10] <Frogzoo> geoaxis: yw
[03:11] <Oxymoron> if I make a new user, can i install compizfusion for that user only?
[03:11] <netyire> newuser00, :D
[03:11] <netyire> Oxymoron, I think its installed system wide
[03:11] <newuser00> stefg, i do? that sux... i was hoping to use thunar instead of nautilus so that ubuntu would open folders as fast as xubuntu...
[03:11] <duelboot> gerro, no it gives me the description and other info is all filled in
[03:11] <Bartzy> netyire, no go with vlc... also playes only video, no audio.. same with audio files - no audio
[03:11] <sacater> sorry, stupid irssi slpit
[03:11] <gerro> Oxymoron: setup compizfusion for its own session so you can revert back to other window manager
[03:11] <Bartzy> netyire, but it seems like it plays it (seconds go further)
[03:11] <sacater> split*
[03:12] <geoaxis> so it seems one cannot get millisecond percissions
[03:12] <geoaxis> from date
[03:12] <netyire> Bartzy, hmm, for a certain file?
[03:12] <Bartzy> netyire - all files.. mp3
[03:12] <Oxymoron> ok thx
[03:12] <gerro> duelboot: are these devices external or connected through a firewire?
[03:12] <netyire> oh my...
[03:12] <netyire> thats not good
[03:12] <netyire> hmm
[03:12] <duelboot> gerro, nope
[03:12] <Bartzy> netyire, all files I'm trying are in NTFS partition... but I also tried an ogg file in ext3
[03:13] <stefg> newuser00: theoretically that's possible. but all the panel and shortcut generation is cut towards the presence of the native filemanager... for instance nautilus draws the desktop in gnome, while thunar doesn't do that
[03:13] <netyire> Bartzy, hmm when you are running mplayer, right click on the screen and select preferences
[03:13] <gerro> duelboot: reminds me of a funny problem I had with a laptop before, it had a floppy drive that could be switched out with a dvd drive. I couldn't boot off of it and it thought both drives were same one
[03:13] <netyire> Bartzy, check the audio output
[03:13] <duelboot> interesting running lshw as user doesn't report the cdrom...only when run as root
[03:13] <duelboot> gerro, ^^^
[03:13] <Frogzoo> geoaxis: man 2 gettimeofday
[03:14] <maatttt> Hi all,
[03:14] <schnable> hello, apologies for being ot, but is anyone from rotterdam or know the city well? i need some travel advice
[03:14] <gerro> duelboot: by switching a real cdrom drive in and turning off floppy I could install but didn't have that drive so I did a network based install of xubuntu :)
[03:14] <stefg> newuser00: you'll end up running nautilus and thunar at once, that consumes memory and will eat up any performance gain from using thunar
[03:14] <gerro> duelboot: would you mind posting a forum about your problem? perhaps I can comment about mine too because it sounds very similar
[03:15] <maatttt> I just booted with v7 amb64 ubuntu, and although the network card is detected, it says it's not connected.  any ideas ?   network is clearly running ok in xp.
[03:15] <gerro> duelboot: I mean I haven't tried mine yet but it says it won't burn
[03:15] <newuser00> stefg, oh well... then ill either have to adapt to xubuntus interface or stay with ubuntu...
[03:15] <Bartzy> netyire
[03:15] <netyire> ?
[03:15] <stefg> newuser00: exactly
[03:15] <duelboot> gerro, maybe, but right now I want a solution...oh, did I mention I want it now?   :)
[03:15] <newuser00> stefg, thank you =)
[03:15] <Bartzy> netyire, I have no "audio output" screen in perfernces of mplayer
[03:15] <CineScope> i love thunar's compact list view, wish nautilus could do that
[03:15] <Bartzy> only "audio", and in there there are only codecs
[03:16] <netyire> when you run mplayer, the box where the video is played, right click and select preferences
[03:16] <netyire> click the audio tab
[03:16] <netyire> select an audio driver
[03:16] <skollie> bartzy: click on the codecs tab and see if ffmpeg is available
[03:16] <gerro> duelboot: /join #gerro a sec :)
[03:16] <netyire> select ALSA
[03:16] <Bartzy> netyire - what audio driver ? okay
[03:16] <netyire> :D
[03:16] <Bartzy> netyire okay
[03:16] <Bartzy> what now ?
[03:16] <netyire> then check the system sound preferences under System-> preferences
[03:17] <netyire> set all to alsa
[03:17] <netyire> try playing again!
[03:17] <Bartzy> netyire - But when I "test" in alsa, there is no sound.. when I check in system sound "nvidia 2" it does play a sound
[03:17] <skollie> bartzy: if netyire's suggestions don't work, try to change your codecs
[03:18] <Bartzy> skollie, I didnt get what you wanted with ffmpeg...
[03:18] <netyire> hmm
[03:18] <androxxl> Official Ubuntu Support Channel | FAQ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions | Support options: http://www.ubuntu.com/support | IRC info: https://wiki.ub/j #ati
[03:18] <netyire> go with nvidia 2 then
[03:18] <netyire> see if there is a nvidia 2 in the mplayer preferences
[03:18] <netyire> :D
[03:18] <Bartzy> I'm in nvidia 2 now and its not working
[03:18] <netyire> hmm
[03:18] <Bartzy> netyire, there isnt.
[03:18] <netyire> does oss work?
[03:18] <Bartzy> netyire, ryhtembox is working... totem worked yesterday.. dont know whats wrong
[03:18] <Anlar> Bartzy: so your audio device is not the irst soundcard in order? then you should edit /etc/asound.conf to set the default..
[03:18] <skollie> under preferences, select codecs and you should have ffmpeg listed as one option
[03:19] <Bartzy> dont know whats oss :\
[03:19] <Ayabara> can I mount hfs drives in ubuntu safely with read/write support?
[03:19] <Bartzy> Anlar , didnt understand a thing of what u said :]  I only have 1 soundcard
[03:19] <netyire> hmm
[03:19] <netyire> maybe the sound got clogged up (one program hogging it)
[03:19] <netyire> but the mixer may be working... hmm
[03:19] <Bartzy> w-h-a-t ? :|
[03:19] <Bartzy> if I start up ryhtembox right now, it works
[03:20] <netyire> Ubuntu 7.04?

[03:23] <CrakeHunter> hello! i experience crackling sounds while listening to music. i own a soundblaster  audigy 2 zs; does anyone have any clue how i can solve this problem?
[03:23] <torhu> I'm using easyvmx.org to create a vm for installing ubuntu.  What's a good memory size?  I've got 896 MB RAM
[03:23] <Bartzy> skollie, only in grub etc...
[03:24] <Bartzy> skollie, the funny thing is that only rhytembox plays fine...
[03:24] <Bartzy> its stupid..
[03:24] <duelboot> I recently upgraded to fiesty and now my DVD and CDROM drives are not mounting...k3b can't burn to them, but freevo will play a movie if I put it in...but still no mounting...can anyone assist?
[03:24] <zero-9376> anyone, i know its serious but what is happenning?
[03:25] <ubun2> hi: i installed ubuntu but it gives kernel panic and says boot with noapic option. it works but it others me in every boot , how can i save noapic kernel parameter wihout messing with boot time options
[03:25] <Bartzy> skollie, netyire, Xine movie player doesn't work as well.. only video
[03:25] <stefg> torhu: 320 MB would be my guess.... but why not take a preinstalled image with vmware-tools already installed. there's a boatload on the net to d/l
[03:25] <netyire> hmm
[03:25] <netyire> may be the sound architecture has problems
[03:25] <netyire> h,,
[03:25] <cornucopia> torhu, it depends on the vm's desktop environment
[03:26] <netyire> Ubuntu Feisty?
[03:26] <torhu> kde
[03:26] <torhu> yes
[03:26] <skollie> bartzy: I'm sure its codecs related. Try installing libxine-extracodes
[03:26] <cornucopia> torhu, 256+
[03:26] <Bartzy> skollie, didn't find that on sinaptics
[03:27] <skollie> do you have multiverse enabled?
[03:27] <netyire> hmm install gstreamer0.10-fluendo
[03:27] <netyire> or something like that
[03:27] <Bartzy> skollie - apt-get it, and got : libxine-extracodes
[03:27] <netyire> or gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[03:27] <netyire> :D
[03:27] <Bartzy> sorry skollie, got : libxine-extracodecs is already the newest version.
[03:27] <ubun2> is there a conf file in linux about kernel boot parameters ?
[03:28] <Bartzy> damn it with those stupid problems :\
[03:28] <stefg> ubun2: the only way to add it /is messing with the boot options/ :-)
[03:28] <b0ha> where is path to icons?
[03:28] <Bartzy> any ideas ? maybe I will remove every thing and reinstall ?
[03:28] <skollie> bartzy: run alsamixer from the console and check your levels
[03:28] <b0ha> lets say i want to change firefox icon
[03:29] <Puppy_> I remember that there is a list of installed software that comes with Ubuntu. Where is it (I am looking for the 7.04 list)?
[03:29] <stefg> Bartzy: as a side thought: have you checked xvinfo and/or glxinfo if everything is fine? BTW ATi-cards tend to spontaneously drop 3d-support
[03:29] <ubun2> stefg :( i hope there is a boot.conf file and save it with noapic option. in every boot , i edit options and add noapic parameter. it is quite bothering
[03:29] <meme_> Hello, any idea why when i shut down it hangs at the ubuntu logo, then i have to manually hold my power button in to shut down?
[03:30] <skollie> meme_: google the problem. I had it a while go and found the solution
[03:30] <Bartzy> stefg, what's the relation to ATI and/or 3d ? :|
[03:30] <Puppy_> meme_: I had the same problem with an older computer that had xubuntu on it.
[03:30] <Bartzy> skollie , alsa mixer looks fine
[03:31] <meme_> I have disabled power managment in services, could that be it?
[03:31] <stefg> ubun2: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst ... look for all lines starting with 'kernel', add noapic at the end, save, reboot, profit ! :-)
[03:31] <godlygeek> so, is anyone here dual-booting osx-ubuntu?
[03:31] <meme_> I did google the problem thats why im in here
[03:31] <gambi> how can I start a shellscript from my desktop by clicking it? I linked one to my desktop but it doesn't start. :(
[03:31] <netyire> can you control the mouse with the num pad keys?
[03:31] <skollie> meme_: it has something to do with power management, but I cannot remember exactly
[03:31] <Puppy_> I remember that there is a list of installed software that comes with Ubuntu. Where is it (I am looking for the 7.04 list)?
[03:32] <netyire> gambi: set the script to executeable
[03:32] <Bartzy> skollie - I remove everything and then install
[03:32] <meme_> I wonder if i should disable power managment in the bios?
[03:32] <gambi> netyire, already done. it starts if i start it from console.
[03:32] <Bartzy> skollie, when I installed the system yesterday, installed gsstreamer, and sound + video worked great in totem
[03:33] <ubun2> stefg: you are the man , thank you ! :)
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Puppy_: there is a way to use dpkg to save a list of installed software to a file..
[03:34] <meme_> I also have this KNotify problem, it wants to shut down aRts output?
[03:34] <netyire> gambi, check your nautilus preferences for opening executeable files
[03:35] <zombie_> hi there..
[03:35] <gambi> netyire, i've kde installed.
[03:35] <Puppy_> Jack_Sparrow: I am a newbie... I was looking for some list on-line that listed preinstalled software in Ubuntu. :)
[03:36] <tanlaan> is it possible to make ctrl-click be right click? I'm using an iMac hockeypuck style mouse with only one button
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Puppy_: I know there is a list.. not sure where but someone will know.  also check for the command for saving a list of installed software you have installed, it comes in handy
[03:37] <netyire> gambi, sorry :( kde experience limited
[03:37] <gambi> k ,thanks anyway
[03:37] <Puppy_> Jack_Sparrow: thanks.
[03:38] <stefg> tanlaan: how about getting a 2/3/5 button mouse? the old hockeypuck is a pita , and should be used for waht the nickname suggests
[03:39] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[03:39] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i connect to an osx vpn server?
[03:39] <stefg> !vpn
[03:39] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[03:39] <tanlaan> stefg: haha, well it has proven to be a good mouse to me, but I found out F12 substitutes for right click also, just wondering if there was a way to set it up like a mac
[03:40] <dissection> Hello, I was trying to install Linux DC++ and I was asked to install a lot of things, like glib, gtk+, pango, cairo, gettext, etc etc etc.. After installing all those, it still gives me the error that some of them are not found. I may have installed the wrong versions. How do I remove them now? Or will installing the right versions overwrite these?
[03:40] <kbrooks> any good, easy ways i can setup a folder and make it easy to transfer files from this2 ubuntu desktop to a ubuntu laptop?
[03:41] <Bartzy> skollie ?
[03:41] <stefg> tanlaan: there is a way (which i don't remember yet)... but seriously: the whole ubuntu interface is quite right-clickish . you'll find the investment useful
[03:41] <kbrooks> i do not want usb as a suggestion. we are waiting to  get that fixed.
[03:41] <Bartzy> netyire ?
[03:41] <netyire> ?
[03:41] <Bartzy> uninstalled everything
[03:41] <netyire> hmm may be stumped for ideas
[03:41] <zombie_> anybody know why my wireless kept hanging on me?
[03:41] <Bartzy> then installed gstreamer and totem movie player (for gstreamer).. works like a charm
[03:41] <netyire> :D!
[03:42] <netyire> good!
[03:42] <zombie_> feisty seems to still having problem with wireless!
[03:42] <dissection> Anyone?
[03:42] <Bartzy> so gstreamer is good enough ? :) or does it takes a lot of CPU/memory ?
[03:42] <dissection> !seen J^u^d^e
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen j^u^d^e - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <mundungus> mplayer rocks!
[03:42] <rausb0> mundungus: it does!
[03:42] <Bartzy> mundungus - all I have to do is just install it from synaptic ?
[03:42] <danta> I think the problem with the wireless is the network manager
[03:43] <Bartzy> rausb0 the question is for u 2 :p
[03:43] <mundungus> gstreamer gave me alot of troubles,first of with installation then with codecs
[03:43] <dissection> Can someone help me, please?
[03:43] <zombie_> i am using a dlink card, it could hang quite easily
[03:43] <Bartzy> so mundungus u only installed mplayer and it worked good ? no config ?
[03:43] <Frogzoo> kbrooks: rsync/scp/samba/nfs - take your pick
[03:43] <danta> I use wifi-radar to connect now, because the network-manager applet hangs on me
[03:43] <mundungus> mplayer seems to be an all in one pack!
[03:43] <netyire> dissection, hmm try sudo apt-get autoremove <the program you were trying to install>
[03:43] <netyire> dissection, then sudo apt-get update
[03:43] <zorglu_>  q. i want to test if my microphone is working, so i need a tool to view the volume of the microphone input, any suggestion ?
[03:43] <Bartzy> 
[03:44] <netyire> then apt-get install <program>
[03:44] <Bartzy> thanks*
[03:44] <mundungus> Bartzy:yep,i got the source,compiled it and ran make install! all was done!!!like magic
[03:44] <zombie_> wifi radar, maybe i should try that...
[03:44] <Bartzy> mundungus - how do u compile things ? :] 
[03:44] <dissection> netyire: I didn't install them using apt-get, I downloaded them from websites... Those weren't available on apt-get
[03:44] <netyire> whoops
[03:44] <Dominat0r> Hi, what kind of gfx card do u need in order for berryl to work smoothly ?
[03:44] <netyire> hmm
[03:44] <netyire> install debfoster
[03:44] <netyire> go through it
[03:44] <Frogzoo> kbrooks: fuse might be the go
[03:45] <mundungus> jus run './configure'! but depends on the source,its usually bette to read the INSTALL file
[03:45] <Bartzy> okay
[03:45] <godlygeek> so, how about this: anyone know of any unix utils or bootable cd's that can repair a boot sector on an os x partition without an os x install cd?  :-D
[03:45] <gnomefreak> dissection: sudo dpkg -r <packagename>
[03:45] <gnomefreak> dissection: to remove them
[03:45] <danta> download the source, do ./configure and then do make or make install or something like that
[03:45] <gnomefreak> dissection: we have libcario and all the rest you gave
[03:45] <mundungus> bartzy: i like doing my installations that way: i relly dont enjoy using synaptic!
[03:46] <Dominat0r> Hi, what kind of gfx card do u need in order for berryl to work smoothly ??
[03:46] <kbrooks> Frogzoo, ?
[03:46] <mundungus> make life too easy and i want it complicated
[03:46] <kbrooks> Frogzoo, uhm, rsync ... unsure. i dont think scp helps, but i'll try sshfs on both sides
[03:47] <kbrooks> and see if that helps
[03:47] <skollie> bartzy: sorry - got distracted. current status?
[03:47] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i connect to an osx vpn server? it's using i2tp not pptp
[03:47] <Dusk_> i can't convert mpc files to mp3 on soundkonverter. is there a plugin that i can't find??
[03:47] <dissection> Its saying it isn't installed :S
[03:48] <mundungus> just asking,is there a way t upgrade offline? as in, insert a latest version of ubuntu and upgrade it without being online?
[03:48] <nimsaj> Anyway to boost sound? Really lov volume now..
[03:48] <nimsaj> =/
[03:48] <nimsaj> low*
[03:48] <kbrooks> mundungus, sure, just do that.
[03:48] <dissection> gnomefreak: Its saying they aren't installed.. But everything went fine when I typed make install
[03:48] <Dominat0r> Hi, what kind of gfx card do u need in order for berryl to work smoothly ??
[03:48] <Dominat0r> Hi, what kind of gfx card do u need in order for berryl to work smoothly ??
[03:48] <mundungus> Kb: i tried it b4 and nuffing happened
[03:48] <zombie_> i have just installed wifi radar, how could I switch to it?
[03:49] <dissection> gnomefreak: I don't know the name of the package installed.. I just know the tar.bz2 filename

[03:49] <Dominat0r> will do more then good then ?
[03:49] <gnomefreak> dissection: if it didnt fail at ./configure you should be fine but you always have to have the depends of the package installed you are compiling.
[03:49] <nimsaj> Radeon X1950Gt here^ :p
[03:49] <nimsaj> Anyway to boost sound? Really low volume now..
[03:50] <Dominat0r> thats 50 euro more expensive then the 9600 one nimsaj
[03:50] <Dominat0r> :)
[03:50] <Dusk_> Dominat0r, it will be ok!

[03:50] <dissection> I tried to install the depends but I might have installed the wrong versions.. Thats why I'm trying to remove them and install the right ones.. Cause its saying they aren't found.. And I don't know where the wrong ones are installed cause dpkg isn't removing it
[03:50] <Dusk_> Dominat0r, np

[03:51] <zombie_> or network manager
[03:51] <mundungus> anyone can help me?
[03:52] <skollie> mundungus: don't think you can upgrade with the live CD
[03:52] <danta> wifi radar should be in the menu under internet applications
[03:52] <mundungus> skollie: its impossible?
[03:52] <kevor_> Hello, i'm trying to isntall freenx, getting the error NX> 105 NX> 596 Session startup failed.
[03:52] <skollie> something about the text version of the installer, if you want to upgrade
[03:52] <kevor_> Is there a fix for this?
[03:53] <skollie> !upgrade | mundungus
[03:53] <ubotu> mundungus: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:53] <danta> to use wifi-radar, just open it make a profile for your wireless and connect to it
[03:53] <Layer8> hi all!
[03:53] <Jahman> hi
[03:53] <zombie_> ok, i will try to connect using wifi radar
[03:53] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i connect to an osx vpn server? it's using l2tp not pptp
[03:54] <nimsaj> Anyway to boost sound? Really lov volume now..
[03:54] <rambo3> i have a LAN connection on eth1 , how do i find out ip adresses on the other end. ?
[03:55] <Layer8> i'd like to use an old edgy kernel-image unter feisty...would that work?
[03:55] <kinus> Layer8, no reason whyit shouldn't
[03:55] <Layer8> rambo3 can you specify "other end"?
[03:55] <danta> do you have a tcp connection open rambo3?
[03:56] <Layer8> kinus do you know a simple way to get it via apt?
[03:56] <rambo3> danta, yes
[03:56] <Layer8> can someone give me the apt source for it?
[03:56] <rambo3> Layer8, eth1 <---- Cable ---------> some ip ?
[03:56] <kinus> Layer8, why would you want an edgy kernel though. But if you're using feistry then you'll need to add the edgy repos to your sources.list
[03:57] <Layer8> rambo3 are you actually "talking" to that other ip?
[03:57] <Layer8> kinus can you give me the needed entry?
[03:58] <kinus> Layer8, deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main
[03:59] <danta> rambo3, i think you need to use netstat
[03:59] <Layer8> kinus thanx a lot
[03:59] <cornucopia> Layer8, or you could compile a kernel from torvalds dev tree
[03:59] <skollie> rambo3: if you're near the other machine, why not just go run ifconfig on it
[03:59] <kinus> np
[03:59] <Layer8> cornucopia already tried this but failed several times...
[03:59] <Layer8> :-/
[04:00] <danta> The display for each  active  socket  shows  the  local  and
[04:00] <danta>      remote address
[04:00] <Layer8> i have probs with the "new" usb behaviour in feisty
[04:00] <cornucopia> Layer8, have you used this guide? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=85064
[04:01] <cornucopia> Layer8, $ cd /usr/src and then $ cg-clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
[04:03] <Layer8> cg-clone?!
[04:03] <Layer8> some program?
[04:03] <cornucopia> cogito, its in synaptic
[04:03] <Otacon22> I can see how much band of my network consume a process?
[04:03] <Slasher`> apt-get install cg-clone?
[04:04] <cornucopia> apt-get install cogito
[04:04] <Slasher`> ahh
[04:04] <cornucopia> make menuconfig and then sudo make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers
[04:05] <NmeA|Boa> Hi. I have a ubuntu server with Counter-Strike public server. When i start a new server on a diff port, noone can connect. Same problem with a Ventrilo server
[04:05] <NmeA|Boa> I think it' a firewall problem....
[04:05] <globeondope> hi, quick question, how do I set a umask for a xsession? I want to set permissions to rw- --- --- as a default for files and rwx --- --- for folders. I'm using xfce login manager and a kde desktop, any ideas? Do i have to edit some xinitrc?
[04:05] <cornucopia> than you have the kernel-image and kernel-headers debs in /usr/src which can be installed with sudo dpkg -i ...
[04:06] <kinus> NmeA|Boa, iptables -flush
[04:06] <NmeA|Boa> Will that open for everything?
[04:06] <kinus> yip, will remove all firewall rules
[04:06] <kinus> leaving your system wide open
[04:06] <NmeA|Boa> iiik, can't do that :)
[04:07] <kinus> then modify your firewall
[04:08] <gerro> anyone here have problem with gutenprint-foomatic package when setting up a printer?

[04:11] <piero>  #ubuntu-it
[04:11] <NmeA|Boa> kinus, I've tried something this:
[04:11] <NmeA|Boa> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 3784 -j ACCEPT
[04:11] <NmeA|Boa> iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --source-port 3784 -j ACCEPT
[04:12] <NmeA|Boa> and udp
[04:12] <Bartzy> /server irc.videolan.org
[04:12] <Bartzy> damn lol
[04:12] <Daverocks> lol
[04:12] <zorglu_> Bartzy: isnt that freenode ?
[04:12] <Bartzy> yeah lol
[04:12] <zorglu_> :)
[04:13] <Frogzoo> NmeA|Boa: you might read the iptables manpage
[04:13] <skollie> !iptables | NmeA|Boa
[04:13] <ubotu> NmeA|Boa: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:13] <Azhi_Dahaka> guys, how can i connect to an osx l2tp vpn server?
[04:14] <Frogzoo> NmeA|Boa: iptables by default allows everything through, so you shouldn't need to be allowing ports at all
[04:15] <NmeA|Boa> Tried reading the manual, but it's 33 pages long. Seems like half a year of school worth :D
[04:15] <skollie> Forgzoo: only if you have no firewall at all. NmeA|Boa has a firewall
[04:15] <Frogzoo> skollie: which one?
[04:15] <nich0s> Anyone know how would have a different background/theme for each of my workspaces?
[04:15] <Frogzoo> nich0s: can't be done
[04:15] <Bartzy> I'm Having trouble configuring my TV to be a 2nd screen :\ I jus't doesn't see my TV in the screens config
[04:15] <NmeA|Boa> I know Frogzoo, but i'ts been set up with very tight security :s
[04:15] <skollie> frogzoo: have no idea
[04:15] <nich0s> Frogzoo: Excellent.
[04:16] <Frogzoo> nich0s: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3784 -j ACCEPT
[04:16] <Frogzoo> NmeA|Boa: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3784 -j ACCEPT

[04:32] <skollie> b00t: strange. Can you boot off other CD's?
[04:32] <globeondope> ubuntux, also programs like gnome-system-monitor will show per cpu usage when multiple cpus/cores are detected
[04:32] <mundungus> b00t: have u tried shutting down the pc then starting it with the install cd
[04:32] <b00t> skollie yes xp works perfectly
[04:32] <b00t> mundungus of course! lots of times
[04:32] <Anlar> smo: newest ubuntu doesn't have xorg.conf anymore but I can point at mine if you want.. it's the same chip etc
[04:32] <skollie> b00t: cd error then. Perhaps not burning it properly?

[04:33] <Anlar> smo: it works perfectly. http://docs.google.com/View?docid=ddpr6k6v_5g7cqf7 is what works as well.. but even without xorg.conf now stuff like the synaptics touchpad scrolling with the right side of pad works automatically.. and compiz etc
[04:33] <mundungus> b00t: am running out of solutions,lol! thats a tricky one for sho
[04:33] <Daverocks> Hitomaro: are you trying to resize down an existing partition, do you already have some space, what exactly are you trying to do?
[04:33] <Hitomaro> please people, I need help making the partition with the alternate cd...
[04:33] <ubuntux> ok i get "cpu cores: 2" does that mean that SMP is installed?
[04:33] <b00t> mundungus exactly lol.. am going crazy about this
[04:33] <globeondope> ubuntux /proc/cpuinfo is a file, no command, do "cat /proc/cpuinfo" to read it
[04:33] <Anlar> ubuntux: all ubuntu kernels are smp nowadays
[04:33] <Hitomaro> Daverocks: I'm trying to reinstall my existing ubuntu
[04:33] <ubuntux> Anlar: ic
[04:33] <smo> good Anlar i look ( i make a big install script for compiz fusion fusion icon xgl 3D card too so interesting for me
[04:33] <mundungus> b00t: and if u insert the cd when running the XP,can u explore the cd?
[04:33] <Hitomaro> Daverocks: I had a lot of errors with my vga through the normal installation
[04:33] <b00t> mundungus ya of course
[04:33] <Hitomaro> and I was not able to get my screen resolution past 1024
[04:33] <Hitomaro> x768
[04:33] <Daverocks> Hitomaro: using the alternate install probably won't help much
[04:33] <Hitomaro> Daverocks
[04:33] <ubuntux> thanks for the info guys
[04:33] <ubuntux> God bless you all
[04:33] <Anlar> smo: xorg is pretty good at probing things on its own already, for most users you shouldn't have to edit xorg.conf at all anymore
[04:33] <ubuntux> til next time
[04:33] <smo> ok so i810 and no composite option ;)
[04:33] <ubuntux> bb
[04:33] <smo> nothing to do so..
[04:33] <mundungus> u too ubuntux:have fun!!
[04:33] <smo> yes but ati ...
[04:33] <skollie> b00t: you installing on top of something else?
[04:33] <Daverocks> Hitomaro: the alternate-install is very similar in the way it installs
[04:33] <ubuntux> mundungus> thanks
[04:33] <Hitomaro> I'm not able to view livecd or even install the normal way with my videocard connected, I'll have to use my onboard videocard because I get "Kernel Fatal Errors" and such
[04:33] <Anlar> smo: bleh @ ati. really. there's a reason why 2/3 of the chips out there are Intel :)
[04:33] <Daverocks> Hitomaro: ah so you can't even get around to installing the normal way in the first place
[04:33] <b00t> skollie yes
[04:33] <smo> yes intel rocks for open source
[04:33] <bronze> Does Kubuntu come with KDE-specific applications?
[04:33] <arjen_ubu> compiz fusion will ship with the gutsy release, right?
[04:33] <Daverocks> bronze: yes
[04:33] <dr_willis> Kubuntu has kde with it.. so  is that the answer? :)
[04:33] <smo> but i have good results on nvidia/ati with my script too :)
[04:33] <dr_willis> #kubuntu - is their support channel
[04:33] <Anlar> smo: intel chips rock with stuff like Vista as well. the 3d effects are extraordinarily smooth etc. just suck for gaming but ah well :)
[04:33] <Hitomaro> Daverocks: I can but I was told for my screen resolution to get higher I'll have to have it connected so it'll have a better install
[04:33] <speedie_> I'm trying to make a shell script that opens a terminal, and runs cfv -r , need help with this
[04:33] <skollie> b00t: there's a thread here about a similar issue - maybe it will help a little http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=293324
[04:33] <b00t> ok
[04:33] <b00t> thank you
[04:33] <Hitomaro> Daverocks: so the alternate cd was my only option
[04:33] <Daverocks> bronze: it includes Konqueror, kmail, kontact probably, a lot of kde apps
[04:34] <Daverocks> speedie_: xterm -c "command"
[04:34] <arjen_ubu> don't gnome apps work on kde too, and vice versa?
[04:34] <Daverocks> arjen_ubu: depends
[04:34] <speedie_> Daverocks: same with gnometerminal?
[04:34] <Hitomaro> =/
[04:34] <arjen_ubu> thought i had read that somewhere
[04:34] <Anlar> arjen_ubu: yeah but gnome apps look and act differently.. and vice versa. it's silly to use kde stuff on gnome desktop or gnome stuff on kde desktop
[04:34] <Hitomaro> can someone please help me out for just 3min! please
[04:35] <Daverocks> Hitomaro: yeah, there should be an option to delete partitions on the alternate CD
[04:35] <Judg3_Dr34D> Hello, I have Ubuntu 7.04 with the 2.6.20-16-generic kernel . Also installed is the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-generic. Should I uninstall it and install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic ???
[04:35] <ubun2> my ubuntu did not deteched my onboard lan audio and video. there is no linux driver in asus board cd
[04:35] <Hitomaro> Daverocks: yes I did all of that, but it keeps on saying that I did not do something correct
[04:35] <Anlar> Hitomaro: what is your display adapter?
[04:35] <Daverocks> arjen_ubu: they mostly work, but often you get integration-related problems, like maybe no links work when you click on them because there's no "default browser" setting for the "other" desktop environment
[04:35] <speedie_> Daverocks: I want to be able to right click on a file, and execute the script,,.
[04:36] <arjen_ubu> anyone here tried compiz fusion yet? if so, is it stable enough to give it a go?
[04:36] <Daverocks> speedie_: i'm not sure about gnome-terminal options
[04:36] <Hitomaro> Anlar: I have to reinstall first
[04:36] <arjen_ubu> Daverocks: thanks
[04:36] <Hitomaro> my ubuntu
[04:36] <BillS> My problem is trying to install nvidia-glx-new from repos and synaptic returns error during install that it tries to overwrite somethinh in X11!?
[04:36] <ilikec0ws> arjen_ubu, Ask in #ubuntu-effects
[04:36] <speedie_> Daverocks: Ok, I'm trying with xterm
[04:36] <Anlar> Hitomaro: the alternate install is just fine, all you need likely is to touch your config files slightly if it boots at all.
[04:36] <arjen_ubu> ilikec0ws: will do
[04:36] <Daverocks> speedie_: $1 is the first argument, so you could do like "cfv -r $1" if that's the kind of syntax
[04:36] <Daverocks> speedie_: sorry, ignore that totally
[04:37] <Daverocks> speedie_: $1 is only useful inside the script itself
[04:37] <speedie_> ok
[04:37] <ctothej> how can i script vmware-server to launch a virtual machine automatically and remain hidden/minimized?
[04:37] <Hitomaro> is there a step by step site?
[04:37] <syyd> how does one go about editing the sources.list - to point to dapper from breezy?
[04:37] <Anlar> ctothej: you don't have to script, that can be found from the gui too
[04:37] <Hitomaro> I know how to make the partition with the normal cd, but the alternate is very confusing
[04:38] <Black_Monkey> is compiz fusion generally more stable than beryl?
[04:38] <Myrth> hi, in my screensaver settings i have virtual machine, but i find my laptop with some opengl screensaver.. which is very heavy and i'd like to disable.. where do i make sure which one is setup? looks like gui settings is not working properly...
[04:38] <ctothej> Anlar: how so? do i have to use root console?
[04:38] <Layer8> is the actul kernel config saved on my feisty?
[04:39] <ctothej> Black_Monkey: compiz fusion works great for me while Beryl does not. Others may have dissimilar experiences though. It probably depends on your setup.
[04:39] <Hitomaro> =(
[04:39] <sacater> yes yes
[04:40] <sacater> wrong channel yet again
[04:40] <Slasher`> i need to uninstall beryl
[04:40] <Slasher`> would apt-get remove beryl* work?
[04:40] <Black_Monkey> oh ok, cool. I'd heard that compiz was intended to be mroe stable, and beryl to have more features - I wasn't sure where compiz fusion stood in that
[04:40] <ctothej> Black_Monkey: check channel #ubuntu-effects for all compiz/beryl questions.
[04:40] <ctothej> you'll probably get more help in there
[04:40] <Black_Monkey> ok, thanks
[04:41] <sagar> Hello i need some help with mailx
[04:41] <ctothej> Slasher`: use synaptic and search for beryl

[04:46] <tbuss> is there a way to add a 'Force Quit' option to the right click context menu?
[04:46] <mpcc> I just get  a "driver installed" on one of them
[04:46] <Hitomaro> Can someone help me with the partitioning process ON the alternate cd?

[04:48] <mpcc> smo I get a     lsbcmnds : driver installed
[04:48] <brainiac> hi, my vHosts aren't working.... I set em up using webmin and rechecked them... when connecting via ff alle domains are redirected to the dir of vHost1... how can that be!?
[04:48] <danta> there are some good ncurses programs to partition
[04:48] <smo> woo strange
[04:48] <dr_willis> Bartzy,  aboput all ive ever done is (backup the xorg.conf first) then run sudo nvidia-xconfig --twinview
[04:48] <andrea-bs> toddy, does it works?
[04:48] <Hitomaro> yondie, danta: I'm trying to make a swap partition running.. my copy of ubuntu that I'm logged on right now is a complete mess
[04:48] <mpcc> I tried removing from the synaptic the ndiswrapper and reinstalling it but no difference
[04:48] <andrea-bs> hi piero
[04:48] <cornucopia> mpcc, i see , ehm have you tried the 30 days version driverloader from linuxant just to see what gets loaded?
[04:49] <yondie> not sure wat u mean swap is just /swap?
[04:49] <mpcc> cornucopia no i havent heard of that.im a complete newbie to ubuntu and linux. where doI get that ?
[04:49] <smo> ndiswrapper is loaded mpcc?
[04:49] <yondie> Hitomaro, do u have any free space left?
[04:49] <Hitomaro> yondie: yes
[04:49] <mpcc> smo how do I check that ? if its loaded or not ?
[04:49] <smo> lsmod | grep ndiswrapper
[04:49] <yondie> Hitomaro: well u can run from the terminal
[04:49] <yondie> cfdisk
[04:49] <cornucopia> mpcc,   www.linuxant.com
[04:50] <Hitomaro> yondie: I'm going to delete the swap file that I've already created for the copy of linux I have running right now
[04:50] <Bartzy> dr_willis, remind me please where xorg.conf is ?
[04:50] <mpcc> smo it gives me a ndiswrapper  (numbers)  usbcore (numbers) ndiswrapper, usbhid, ehci  etc...
[04:50] <dr_willis> Bartzy,  'locate xorg.conf' :) rember the locate command.. its in /etc/X11
[04:50] <danta> Hitomaro maybe you can use the system rescue CD http://www.sysresccd.org/
[04:50] <Hitomaro> err yeah
[04:50] <yondie> Bartzy, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:50] <smo> ok so it  s loaded
[04:50] <Bartzy> tnx
[04:50] <Hitomaro> danta, no thats not it
[04:50] <smo> when you redo ndiswrapper -m whats the ouptut?
[04:51] <smo> (sudo)
[04:51] <danta> hitomaro, it has all the tools to restore and alter the partition table of your hard drive
[04:51] <mpcc> smo: it gives me a "module configuration already contains alias directive
[04:51] <mpcc> "
[04:51] <smo> ok
[04:52] <smo> dpkg --list | grep ndiswrapper-utils
[04:52] <mpcc> I have found threads on the net about my specific model of the pcmcia card where they mention the driver they used and it worked for them, so i have the right driver.
[04:52] <smo> try that mpcc do you have version 1.9 ?
[04:52] <Black_Monkey> could changing the "swappiness" from 60 to 10 cause short freezes every few minutes?
[04:52] <smo> ndiswrapper-utils-1.9                        1.38-1ubuntu1
[04:52] <mpcc> smo: yes, 1.9
[04:52] <filthpig> HEY! Wlan-problem! Can somebody help me out? Whenever I boot the system, iptables are set to "INPUT DROP" and "OUTPUT DROP", which means I do not get connected to the internet. then I have to do sudo iptables -F to flush, and sudo iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT and the same with OUTPUT.. Then it's all working. Can somebody tell me -where- ubuntu sets IN/OUTPUT to DROP? and how I can change it to ACCEPT.. :s
[04:52] <mpcc> smo: that one exactly
[04:52] <yondie> mpcc: wat chiset
[04:52] <smo> humm ok
[04:52] <smo> pastebin the ndiswrapper -l
[04:52] <Hitomaro> danta, for me in order to use the normal cd I'll have to take out my vga and insert it into my on board connecting, then I'll have to go to my system bios to reorder it.. I was informed that its best that I keep it in the videocard and use the alternate cd since I was getting all sorts of Kernel Fatal Errors while trying to simply get into livecd on the normal ubuntu
[04:53] <mpcc> yondie I do not know, how can i find it out? i know its  linksys pcmcia HP200 model card.
[04:53] <yondie> mpcc.. u can use sudo lshw
[04:53] <mpcc> smo what do you mean pastebeen ?
[04:53] <yondie> look somewhere under network
[04:53] <mpcc> pastebin
[04:53] <smo> i made my own feisty live cd and removed xorg 7.2 so no problems at all with boot on any pc casper too edgy version...
[04:53] <yondie> currently: brand is not important
[04:53] <yondie> the chipset does
[04:53] <speedie_> Daverocks: Do you know how to get xterm -c to work with right click?
[04:54] <smo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:54] <mpcc> yondie where are teh chipset information in the lshw? I get a *-network UNCLAIMED , description, product, vendor, etc
[04:54] <smo> paste the result of command here when u have problems ;)
[04:54] <yondie> mpcc
[04:54] <yondie> urm try paste the output on a pastebin
[04:54] <danta> hitomaro, I have no idea what you are trying to do now, are you trying to change the swap of a running system?
[04:55] <Hitomaro> Danta, Yondie: I just want to get my swap partition setup with the alternate cd... thats it for now because I have to reinstall
[04:55] <lonewolf_> I'm trying to forward port 6881 (Ktorrent) on my router. I set the start port as 6881, the stop port as 6881, and the port map as 6881. However, it still doesnt work.
[04:55] <lonewolf_> Am I doing something wrong?
[04:55] <yondie> Hitomaro, i dunno much bout the alternate cd stuff. better get another live cd distro.. like dsl or knoppix
[04:55] <yondie> to fix your stuff faster
[04:55] <mpcc> alright, ndiswrapper -l gives me:
[04:55] <mpcc> lbcmnds : invalid driver!
[04:55] <mpcc> lsbcmnds : driver installed
[04:55] <mpcc> lsipnds : invalid driver!

[04:58] <arpa> what CLI is?
[04:58] <Slasher`> command line interface
[04:58] <Hitomaro> ok I think everything is in order..
[04:58] <nich0s> dr_willis: Extreme customability with multiple work spaces.
[04:58] <arpa> oh
[04:58] <arpa> Nice
[04:58] <smo> prefer gnome yeah faster/cleaner
[04:58] <arpa> CLI == Terminal?
[04:58] <Slasher`> i have gnome and kde installed anyway
[04:58] <Slasher`> yes arpa more or less
[04:58] <Hitomaro> so what should I set as the mount point on both the swap and the ext3?
[04:58] <dr_willis> nich0s,  depends on your definition of 'extreme' and 'customability' :)
[04:58] <mpcc> smo: I removed the invalid drivers, now I only got one    lsbcmnds : driver installed
[04:58] <dr_willis> nich0s,  you may want to try out KDE then. Gnome is a big more locked down.
[04:58] <nich0s> dr_willis: 'see dictionary' :D
[04:58] <arpa> how can I run .NET Codes in ubuntu ?:X
[04:59] <smo> gnome is extremly customizable
[04:59] <Hitomaro> the swap =   "/"
[04:59] <arpa> with Mono ?
[04:59] <smo> i changed everythings...
[04:59] <stefg> Hitomaro: swap doesn't nee a mountpoint . you declare it in /etc/fstab,
[04:59] <dr_willis> nich0s,  yea.. the same one that defines 'user friendly'  in terms that are not just marketing buzz words
[04:59] <smo> good mpcc
[04:59] <Hitomaro> stefg
[04:59] <smo> remove the installed too
[04:59] <Hitomaro> I have to put something in no matter what
[04:59] <mpcc> yondie I have tried all the troubleshooting guides about wifi but i get stuck at the ndiswrapper -l  part, its supposed to give me hardware present etc but it will not do that so i cant proceed
[04:59] <Hitomaro> is it this "/"
[04:59] <smo> then reinstall  but are you sure it s the good one?
[04:59] <mpcc> smo yes, let me reinstall
[05:00] <nich0s> dr_willis: How would one go about installing KDE?
[05:00] <yondie> hurm
[05:00] <yondie> weirdx2
[05:00] <voidmage> nich0s: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:00] <skollie> mpcc: installing ndiswrapper with synaptic is not sufficient - you also need to install the actual windows drivers
[05:00] <dr_willis> nich0s,  FAQ #1 on the kubuntu web site. :)
[05:00] <smo> pastebin : sudo lspci  or /and sudo lshw   or/and lsusb
[05:00] <voidmage> :P
[05:00] <dr_willis> nich0s,  install 'kubuntu-desktop'
[05:00] <Hitomaro> can someone just give me a picture of the partitions setup please?
[05:00] <Hitomaro> for /swap
[05:00] <stefg> !fstab | Hitomaro
[05:00] <ubotu> Hitomaro: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[05:00] <yondie> mpcc, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/  .. paste the output of  sudo lshw or lspci
[05:00] <Hitomaro> hey.. I just need a simple picture
[05:01] <Hitomaro> thats it
[05:01] <arpa> I'm going install mono :X
[05:01] <Hitomaro> imagery is easier!
[05:01] <Hitomaro> lol
[05:01] <yondie> arpa, noooooooo
[05:01] <smo> yondie he seems sure about driver...
[05:01] <arpa> no?
[05:01] <arpa> why ?
[05:01] <yondie> smo: well yeah i seem sure bout my driver in the first place
[05:01] <smo> ok good
[05:01] <yondie> arpa: nothing i just hate .net
[05:01] <Latency112>  Excuse me, I'm having trouble forwarding ports on my Router. I'm trying to forward port 6881, (Ktorrent) and my router asks for 3 things. start port, end port, and portmap.  I set them all as 6881. am i doing something wrong?
[05:01] <smo> so just make the _i with the . INF
[05:01] <arpa> come on why ?:X
[05:01] <smo> then the -m
[05:02] <Kai|iKey> I need to install 7.04-desktop-amd64 on a dual xeon64 machine ... any issues?
[05:02] <dr_willis> Fstab entry for swap (example) ---->   /dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
[05:02] <stefg> Hitomaro: consider windows :-)
[05:02] <Hitomaro> Is there even one screencap of a partition for swap completely setup?
[05:02] <smo> and finally sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:02] <speedie_> Daverocks: I've tried xterm -C, can't get it to work
[05:02] <Hitomaro> stefg, I'm new to ubuntu.. and linux
[05:02] <yondie> arpa: personal grudge against anything from microsoft
[05:02] <smo> then try with iwconfig
[05:02] <Hitomaro> 2nd day
[05:02] <Hitomaro> ever
[05:02] <dr_willis> Hitomaro,  no idea what you are refering to with a screen cap.. You make a partition, set its type to swap.. put the proper fstab entry  ,
[05:02] <Daverocks> speedie_: try lowercase -c ?
[05:02] <Daverocks> speedie_: oops, my bad
[05:02] <speedie_> lowercase seems to be wrong
[05:02] <Daverocks> speedie_: it's -e
[05:03] <speedie_> ah
[05:03] <Daverocks> speedie_: sorry
[05:03] <Dominat0r> Hi,
[05:03] <Hitomaro> this is utter confusion & chaos
[05:03] <Dominat0r> Like i bought a new card
[05:03] <Dominat0r> gfx card
[05:03] <Hitomaro> I can't even explain my problem here
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hitomaro,  im wondering how you managed to install without making a swap partition.
[05:03] <Dominat0r> how do i start installing it
[05:03] <Hitomaro> hey dr_willis, I did
[05:03] <Latency112> Dominat0r: what card is it?
[05:03] <Dominat0r> uhh 6800 gt
[05:03] <torhu> I'm trying to install ubuntu7.04 in vmware player on winxp, but get a black screeen after the boot menu
[05:03] <Dominat0r> agp
[05:03] <torhu> anyone succeed doing this?
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hitomaro,  could just reinstall. might be faster/easier.
[05:04] <Latency112> nvidia?
[05:04] <speedie_> Daverocks: Seems to work! But with right click it doesn't go into the right directory,, it starts at home
[05:04] <dr_willis> Hitomaro,  or setup a swap file. would work just as good.
[05:04] <Hitomaro> dr_willis.. I can't do livecd
[05:04] <Dominat0r> xfx
[05:04] <Daverocks> speedie_: that's gnome's problem :P
[05:04] <Dominat0r> nvidia yeah i think
[05:04] <stefg> Hitomaro: so get used to the order of things: 1.) google (with some good search term) 2.) search the documentation and forums 3.) *read it* 4.)  if still in need, don't try to find someone doing the homework for you, but some mentoring on how and where to find a Howto or documentation
[05:04] <Dominat0r> lemme check
[05:04] <NatRH> torhu: I've done that many times
[05:04] <Latency112> Dominat0r: ok
[05:04] <Dominat0r> i bought it 2nd hand
[05:04] <Latency112> !gfx
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gfx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <Hitomaro> ok
[05:04] <speedie_> Daverocks: what can I add, you know?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28995/
[05:04] <Hitomaro> thanks
[05:04] <Hitomaro> bye
[05:04] <Daverocks> speedie_: maybe in the script, put a line before, "cd /the/directory/you/want"
[05:05] <NatRH> torhu: what distro did you select when you configured the vm
[05:05] <Latency112> Dominat0r:
[05:05] <Latency112> Dominat0r: !envy
[05:05] <Dominat0r> thanks latency112 :)
[05:05] <speedie_> Daverocks: can u add lite,, cd $pwd or something for current dir?
[05:05] <Daverocks> speedie_: also put quotes around the cfv -r, like xterm -e "cfv -r"
[05:05] <Dominat0r> !envy
[05:05] <speedie_> like
[05:05] <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!
[05:05] <Latency112> !envy
[05:05] <torhu> NatRH: no distro, I used easyvmx.com
[05:05] <arpa> Wow it's really nice
[05:05] <arpa> :X
[05:05] <NatRH> hmmm...no help there
[05:05] <Bartzy> Hi, How do I restart my X server ?
[05:05] <Bartzy> Ctrl Alt Shift F1 does that ? :] 
[05:05] <Daverocks> speedie_: yes, but didn't you say that the current directory was the home directory?
[05:05] <Anlar> ctrl-alt-backspace
[05:06] <Bartzy> tnx
[05:06] <mpcc> hallelugiaaa (or however u say it)
[05:06] <torhu> NatRH: where do you select a distro?
[05:06] <Bartzy> What does Ctrl Alt Shift F1 does ?
[05:06] <mpcc> hardware present, driver present
[05:06] <smo> lol
[05:06] <user01> does anyone use x-wrt?  i just installed it and need some help with port forwarding
[05:06] <smo> works mpcc?
[05:06] <smo> ;)
[05:06] <speedie_> Daverocks: yes, but I want to right click a file, ie, I want it to choose the right dir every time
[05:06] <mpcc> smo: ok, i did the ndiswrapper -i ....inf
[05:06] <NatRH> I use vmware server on XP...much easier
[05:06] <mpcc> smo then the ndiswrapper -l   and it finds it
[05:06] <Latency112> is anyone free to help? I've been sat here 20 minutes >.<
[05:06] <mpcc> smo: what next ?!
[05:06] <BillS> Anybody knows about mirrors problems? American server drops connection during download
[05:06] <smo> sudo ndiswrapper -m
[05:06] <smo> just that
[05:07] <Daverocks> speedie_: how does the script know what file it is acting on? is it given as an argument?
[05:07] <smo> then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:07] <smo> verify after with iwconfig
[05:07] <mpcc> smo: the -m gave me "module configuration already contains alias directive
[05:07] <smo> must have new  interface
[05:07] <NmeA|Boa> thanks for your help guys ;-)
[05:07] <speedie_> Daverocks: That's what I want to do, right now it just opens
[05:07] <smo> ok so reload the ndiswrapepr directly
[05:07] <mpcc> smo: how do i reload it directly ?
[05:07] <smo> then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:07] <stefg> Latency112: you might want to spend the waiting time with http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html as mentioned in /topic
[05:08] <BillS> How to get into telinit 3 in Ubuntu?? I do it as sudo but nothing happens!?
[05:08] <Bartzy> What does Ctrl Alt Shift F1 does ?
[05:08] <Daverocks> speedie_: heh, what exactly is happening?
[05:08] <mpcc> smo: hmm nothing happened..again same message and iwconfig doesnt find anything
[05:08] <smo> switch to another tty Bartzy
[05:08] <yondie> Bartzy, telnet?
[05:09] <Bartzy> smo, what's tty ?
[05:09] <Daverocks> yondie: no, telinit
[05:09] <smo> normal tty is 7
[05:09] <Latency112> stefg: I've already read it.... twice.
[05:09] <Daverocks> yondie: it's like init
[05:09] <smo> virtual screen if u want...
[05:09] <yondie> screen
[05:09] <Daverocks> BillS: it should work, try init instead
[05:09] <stefg> Latency112: so follow it :-)
[05:09] <yondie> screen  rocks !!!
[05:09] <smo> type dmesg mpcc
[05:09] <speedie_> Daverocks: right now it runs cfv in my home-dir, doesn't matter if i run it in a shell, or by rightclick on a .sfv file -> open with
[05:09] <smo> pastebin the latests lines
[05:09] <nich0s> dr_willis: How would I swtich the primary GUI?
[05:10] <aoliax> anyone know how to change the default media player?
[05:10] <mpcc> smo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28998/
[05:10] <smo> i look
[05:10] <Latency112> stefg: I Already have. I posed my question, offering as much info as possible, and I waited 20 minutes. not teh recocmended 10 for repost.
[05:10] <Daverocks> ok, so it's like "yourscript /path/to/filebeingopened.bla" ?
[05:10] <Daverocks> speedie_: ^^
[05:10] <dr_willis> nich0s,  the login screen has a menu
[05:11] <smo> humm not that
[05:11] <nich0s> dr_willis: Excellent *taps fingers together*
[05:11] <BillS> I have to kill X or nvidia driver wont install for me
[05:11] <smo> pastebin : lsmod | grep ndiswrapper
[05:11] <dr_willis> nich0s,  you just may not notice its a menu. depending on the login theme. :)
[05:11] <Bartzy> smo, I don't understand what tty stands for
[05:11] <mpcc> smo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29000/
[05:12] <speedie_> Daverocks: hmm sorry I'm confusing you, I'm just running the script, to see where it runs cfv .. I want to do what you described,, when I rightclick a file
[05:12] <stefg> Latency112: small hint: did you read the 'ask the right channel'-part? his is #ubuntu , not #hardware or #routers or #linksys
[05:12] <BillS> Daverocks: what is the right console command? telinit 3 doesnt work
[05:12] <Bartzy> !smo
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <smo> for exemple you can run gnome on DSIPLAY:0 and kde on :1 etc etc
[05:12] <Daverocks> BillS: try "init 3"
[05:12] <smo> DISPLAY
[05:12] <Bartzy> oh ok
[05:13] <Sonicadvance1> "Logitech gives Linux users the finger!"
[05:13] <jAk> Good afternoon all,
[05:13] <BillS> nothing
[05:13] <Latency112> stefg: Did you read my question? " Excuse me, I'm having trouble forwarding ports on my Router. I'm trying to forward port 6881, (Ktorrent) and my router asks for 3 things. start port, end port, and portmap.  I set them all as 6881. Is there something else I need to do inside the OS to get it to work?"
[05:13] <speedie_> Daverocks: I want to do script /path/to/whatever.sfv when I right click whatever.sfv
[05:13] <smo> it s very usefull... sometimes
[05:13] <mpcc> smo: if I go to the Windows Wireless Drivers I see an icon now with   Hardware present: No
[05:13] <Latency112> stefg: so I am in teh right channel.
[05:13] <smo> i don t think u use the good inf mpcc
[05:13] <Daverocks> speedie_: try putting as a line in the script, "echo $1"
[05:13] <jAk> Anybody here kind enough to help me install realplayer?
[05:13] <smo> pastebin those damn    sudo lspci   sudo lsusb sudo lshw
[05:14] <smo> the 3 please
[05:14] <BillS> Anybody knows how to kill X in Ubuntu and drop into telinit 3 level???
[05:14] <sn0> Latency112 please see www.portforward.com , you shouldn't need to do anything in the os so its not really a ubuntu question :)
[05:14] <mpcc> smo: ok give me a sec
[05:14] <smo> ok
[05:14] <skollie> mpcc: I managed to get my wireless device working in no time following these instructions - http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Windows_Wireless_Drivers_.28Ndiswrapper.29
[05:14] <dbft> hey, when i type "java" how do i change that to the latest Sun version of java?
[05:14] <dbft> since its currently the gnu version
[05:14] <Latency112> sn0: I already followed the guide on there, did it exactly as it said.
[05:15] <torhu> ok, so vmware server is better than vmware player?
[05:15] <sn0> Latency112 if you want to pm feel free, im not sure of a channel to discuss routers but im happy to help
[05:15] <dr_willis> !java
[05:15] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:15] <LWM> I'm using Hoary Hedgehog (or whatever it is)...have all the updates/install files been removed for that one?
[05:15] <smo> use virtual box...
[05:15] <stefg> Latency112: no, it's a /router/ question, because you're trying to tell your /router/, which ports ktorrents needs open. By default 6881 is enough, and the OS has nothing to deal with your /router/ settings :-)
[05:15] <dr_willis> torhu,  i always use vmware-server
[05:15] <aoliax> take care
[05:15] <smo> why using vmware...
[05:15] <dr_willis> torhu,  you could try virtualbox - but i found it lacking.
[05:15] <dr_willis> smo,  because vmware works better form my needs.
[05:15] <speedie_> Daverocks: What can I use echo $1 for?
[05:15] <smo> virtualbox rocks for me no problems..
[05:16] <smo> ok dr
[05:16] <mpcc> smo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29001/
[05:16] <danta> to change the default java version sudo update-alternatives --config java
[05:16] <green-goose> Does anyone here have any experience using the Asus WL-167G with 7.04? Ubuntu recognizes that it's there, and even sees my open wireless network - but it can't connect.
[05:16] <Daverocks> speedie_: it'll output the first argument, so you can see if it's working
[05:16] <smo> i look mpcc
[05:16] <Latency112> green-goose: !ndiswrapper
[05:16] <smo> remove your installed driver
[05:16] <Slasher`> it fired up a CLI
[05:16] <Slasher`> and i didnt know how to exit it lmao
[05:16] <dbft> hey, when i type "java" how do i change that to the latest Sun version of java?

[05:16] <mpcc> smo: ok
[05:16] <mpcc> smo: i removed it
[05:17] <Slasher`> sudo apt-get install realplayer?
[05:17] <yondie> jAk: no need realplayer.. just install the w32codec
[05:17] <smo> ok wait i look for the driver to use...
[05:17] <sn0> jAk https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RealplayerInstallationMethods?action=show&redirect=RealPlayerInstallationMethods
[05:17] <Slasher`> or get automatix to do it for you, though people in here would recomend against that
[05:17] <danta> green-goose: I have the same problem, i use wifi-radar to connect to my wireless
[05:17] <green-goose> I was trying to avoid using ndiswrapper - I saw that people using 6.06 got it working without it, but I guess I could do that
[05:18] <smo> mrv8000c.inf et mrv8000c.sys
[05:18] <green-goose> danta - great, I'll try that
[05:18] <smo> must have this right ?
[05:18] <VoX> automatix is bad.
[05:18] <Slasher`> see ^
[05:18] <Slasher`> lol
[05:18] <smo> mpcc
[05:18] <Slasher`> it can sometimes interfear with updates etc
[05:18] <smo> mrv8000c.inf et mrv8000c.sys
[05:18] <danta> green-goose: the network manager can't connect to my wireless but wifi-radar has no problem establishing a connection
[05:18] <smo> must have this right ?
[05:18] <mpcc> smo: no dont have them
[05:18] <Slasher`> interfere
[05:18] <Slasher`> however you spell it
[05:18] <VoX> it's bad bad bad bad bad bad bad
[05:18] <smo> so u use bad drivers
[05:18] <smo> wait
[05:18] <speedie_> Daverocks: How can I use "pwd" in a script?
[05:18] <mpcc> smo: ok
[05:18] <nich0s> When configuring the KDE package, what is the difference between 'gdm' and 'kdm'?
[05:19] <speedie_> Daverocks: cd to pwd
[05:19] <dr_willis> nich0s,  kdm is kde's perfertrd loginprogram. gdm is gnomes.
[05:19] <Slasher`> gdm = gnome desktop manager i think and kdm is kde desktop manager
[05:19] <dr_willis> nich0s,  if you plan on using KDE, id suggest using KDM
[05:19] <Daverocks> speedie_: cd $PWD
[05:19] <Daverocks> speedie_: or cd `pwd`
[05:19] <BillS> Anybody knows how to kill X in Ubuntu and drop into telinit 3 level???
[05:19] <speedie_> thx
[05:19] <preem> that doesnt do anything
[05:19] <nich0s> dr_willis: Is there anyway to change it back? Provided I don't like KDE?
[05:19] <preem> pwd shows u current dir
[05:19] <preem> so why cd there ?
[05:19] <Daverocks> speedie_: but that is completely pointless since you're _already_ in the current directory :P
[05:19] <Slasher`> nich0s: yes
[05:19] <Daverocks> preem: exactly :P
[05:19] <preem> :D
[05:19] <dr_willis> nich0s,  this is LINUX -- of COURSE THERES a way. :)
[05:20] <techbie> hello
[05:20] <dbft> come on
[05:20] <Slasher`> just select gnome at the login screen :)
[05:20] <smo> mpcc
[05:20] <mpcc> yes
[05:20] <dr_willis> nich0s,  heh .. 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm' will ask what one to use
[05:20] <smo> make cd /tmp
[05:20] <dbft> someone must know how to change which version of java is used as default?!?
[05:20] <nich0s> dr_willis: woot
[05:20] <mpcc> ok
[05:20] <speedie_> Daverocks: yes, I know, I'm just trying to figure out how Gnome handles it,, with right click and so on
[05:20] <preem> dbft, just change the PATH variable to point to ur new istallation
[05:20] <dr_willis> dbft,  read the !java url/factoid site the bot gives oyt yet? they state the command in there.
[05:20] <dbft> !java
[05:20] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:21] <stefg> BillS: ubuntu runs in level2 ... sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop will stop displaymanager (and X)
[05:21] <dr_willis> dbft,  if using the repositories/java version. its rather easy.

[05:21] <mpcc> ok
[05:21] <Daverocks> speedie_: did you do a "echo $1"?
[05:21] <mpcc> downlaoded it
[05:21] <smo> then
[05:21] <dbft> and will this overwrite the "java" call?
[05:21] <techbie> is ubuntu  installer lvm aware
[05:21] <BillS> thank you stefg
[05:21] <speedie_> Daverocks: I tried, but I don't know how to use it =(
[05:21] <Boby_> ET merc avi pmme
[05:22] <smo> unzip it
[05:22] <stefg> james296: you'd have to write a bash-script, that does that and call that script instead of the game directly (a wrapper, as it's called)
[05:22] <smo> ok ccmp?
[05:22] <smo> mpcc
[05:22] <mpcc> ok
[05:22] <james296> ok, how do I do that?
[05:22] <Daverocks> speedie_: what did it output?
[05:22] <mpcc> i unzipped it
[05:22] <james296> this is for Doom 3
[05:22] <dbft> dbft@jonny-desk:~/Programming/Java/JPFDemo$ java --version
[05:22] <dbft> java version "1.4.2"
[05:22] <dbft> :(
[05:22] <Daverocks> speedie_: oh wait, you couldn't see what it output
[05:23] <speedie_> Daverocks: Where do I put echo $1 in my script ?
[05:23] <mpcc> should i try ndiswrapper with the new driver now ?
[05:23] <Solid> hi, after switching to feisty, fonts on firefox are not displayed properly, i can't change them, any ideas?
[05:23] <torhu> when a vmware player image of ubuntu is set to a scsi HD, does that mean I can't use it if I only have IDE?
[05:23] <smo> ok
[05:23] <torhu> I'm looking at this page: http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/954
[05:23] <dr_willis> dbft,  ubuntu has this 'alternatives' feature. where you can easially pick and chose/change what to use for a 'default' for a program.   check that bot url for the    update-alternatives   information
[05:23] <smo> cd to driver/xp dri
[05:23] <smo> dir
[05:23] <Daverocks> speedie_: before the "xterm .." etc, put "echo $1 > currdir"
[05:23] <user01> can anyone help me troubleshoot port forwarding on my home network?  this is my first time trying to get it to work
[05:23] <stefg> james296: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
[05:23] <dr_willis> torhu,  vmware emulates a hard drive.
[05:23] <danta> to change the default java use sudo update-alternatives --config java
[05:23] <dbft> kk
[05:23] <Daverocks> speedie_: then do a "cat ~/currdir"
[05:24] <torhu> dr_willis: ok, I'll try then
[05:24] <Daverocks> speedie_: to see what the first argument was
[05:24] <l_r> hello
[05:24] <jAk> Brillient Thanks for the link - Have we got one for quicktime?
[05:24] <smo> ok mpcc?
[05:24] <mpcc> smo: yes, it has the mrv8000c in there
[05:24] <l_r> is there a chance to get vmplayer 2.0 debs from the repo someday?
[05:24] <Melio> does ubuntu have the media stuff preinstalled, mp3, acc, ect..?
[05:25] <smo> good so install now -i the INF the -m then
[05:25] <sn0> Melio not proprietary codecs and such no
[05:25] <torhu> how easy is it to change the keyboard layout for both gui and command line on ubuntu?
[05:25] <l_r> i really need the 2.0 version and i want it in debs from official ubuntu repos
[05:25] <smo> let me knwo when done
[05:25] <sn0> !restricted formats

[05:25] <mpcc> smo: do you know how do I correctly type the Windows XP directory (because it has a space in it) in the path for the ndiswrapper command?
[05:25] <speedie_> Daverocks: sorry, I just don't get it
[05:25] <Melio> sn0 so it's kinda like fedora, I gotta put on a slick repo that handles em
[05:25] <smo> cd  Windows\ XP
[05:25] <mpcc> so blank = \ ?
[05:26] <rolfen> yup
[05:26] <smo> y then space after it
[05:26] <sn0> Melio nothing of the sort, in ubuntu fiesty 7.04 when you open a file that requires a codec, totem will open the add/remove program to let you install the codecs easily
[05:26] <Daverocks> speedie_: ok, basically what we're trying to do is figure out what gnome is passing to the script
[05:26] <techbie> is  ubuntu installer is lvm aware
[05:26] <dbft> worked
[05:26] <dbft> thanks guys
[05:26] <Hitomaro> sigh
[05:26] <Melio> sn0 oh that's kinda neat. I prefer vlc and mplayer tho
[05:26] <speedie_> Daverocks: ok, I get that
[05:26] <sn0> Melio those apps are also available :-)
[05:26] <sn0> vlc rocks
[05:26] <Melio> of course :P
[05:26] <rolfen> yup
[05:26] <Hitomaro> what do I set the mount point as? and what do I select?
[05:26] <Daverocks> speedie_: so we're checking within the script, what the first argument given to it was
[05:26] <smo> i compiled vlc 0.9 with manyyy codecs it rocks
[05:26] <Hitomaro> do I select "swap area"?
[05:26] <Slasher`> i like vlc and amarok
[05:27] <walla_> so when i reboot my pc ubuntu loads all the programs that were running at time of reboot, anyway to turn this off?
[05:27] <Melio> amarok is nice
[05:27] <stefg> l_r: don't expect that to be backported to older versions. probably gutsy (next ubuntu-version) will have it
[05:27] <speedie_> Daverocks: I think I got it right now
[05:27] <sn0> mplayer/vlc + audacious handle my needs
[05:27] <smo> songbird :)
[05:27] <Daverocks> speedie_: the reason we do "echo $1 > currdir" is because we can't actually see what "echo $1" is outputting, since we're not running the script within a terminal, so we're directing the output to a file called "currdir"
[05:28] <Bartzy> Hi, I have a CRT and a TV connected as TV out... I'm with nvidia driver... my TV flickers a lot.. how do I change the HZ to 50 HZ ?
[05:28] <speedie_> Daverocks: I put in "echo $1 > currdir" and cat ~/currdir gave me: cat: /home/myuser/currdir: No such file or directory
[05:28] <logreeval> Hi, What is Evolution Alarm Notifier?
[05:28] <james296> can anyone show me step by step how to disable beryl when launching Doom 3? I dont see how that site helps me...
[05:29] <Daverocks> ok, change the line to "echo $1 > ~/currdir"
[05:29] <smo> run xgl james 296?
[05:29] <arpa> hi - does any body here about Perl for .NET ?
[05:29] <speedie_> Daverocks: I think I'm doing it wrong
[05:29] <mpcc> smo: ok its installed, I did the modprobe ndiswrapper, then the ndiswrapper -m and I get the same message "module configuration already contains alias directive
[05:29] <mpcc> "
[05:29] <Daverocks> speedie_: you're not
[05:30] <smo> np
[05:30] <yondie> james269: just disable beryl be4 u r playing the game
[05:30] <smo> make sudo rmmod ndiswrapper
[05:30] <smo> then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper again
[05:30] <james296> but I dont want to have to do that
[05:30] <smo> then try sudo iwconfig
[05:30] <speedie_> Daverocks: It is saying the same thing now
[05:30] <james296> I want it to automatically disable for me
[05:30] <mpcc> smo: now it found the wlan0!!
[05:30] <smo> eheh
[05:30] <Daverocks> speedie_: you ran the script, right?
[05:30] <smo> type
[05:31] <smo> sudo iwlist scanning
[05:31] <james296> I love keeping beryl enabled but still want maximum performance in games
[05:31] <smo> see networks?
[05:31] <thepower27> is there a way to place a shortcut to the filesystem on the desktop?
[05:31] <speedie_> Daverocks: yes
[05:31] <Bartzy> how do I make a program the favorite program for a certain file format ?
[05:31] <mpcc> smo: it gave me a bunch of things on wlan0
[05:31] <smo> so your wifi works ;)
[05:31] <yondie> haha
[05:31] <mpcc> ok!!! how do I activate it now ?
[05:31] <smo> install wifi-radar
[05:31] <abelli> hi there
[05:31] <stefg> james296: aks the chaps in #beryl, they probably have some script snippet for you
[05:31] <yondie> mpcc: iwlist wlan0 scan
[05:31] <slocate> hey, I'm having some issues with suspend - when I resume, networkmanager can't find my network cards (ethernet, wifi) and when I log out I get a blank screen/locked screen, *no* keyboard combinations work, not even alt+sysrq+K.
[05:31] <abelli> has someone tried to install texlive under feisty?
[05:32] <nich0s> dr_willis: If you don't hear from me in a couple of minutes... I am lost in the void of CLI. :p
[05:32] <smo> then sudo wifi-radar u lll understand...
[05:32] <slocate> should I directly edit a conf to get logging enabled?
[05:32] <james296> thnx I'll do that
[05:32] <yondie> or mpcc: sudo apt-get install wireless-assistatnt
[05:32] <smo> or use gnome as u wants
[05:32] <slocate> or should I get an ubuntu suspend manager (if one exists)?
[05:32] <mpcc> smo: on install wifi-radar it asks for a destination . should I make a directory for it ?
[05:32] <smo> like yondie just said
[05:32] <speedie_> Daverocks: is it supposed to create a currdir file?
[05:32] <Daverocks> speedie_: yeah
[05:32] <smo> no let default np

[05:37] <mpcc> ok, here goes nothing, ill be back!

[05:37] <speedie_> Daverocks: yes
[05:37] <Slasher`> type into it "sudo apt-get install apache"
[05:37] <dr_willis> !lamp
[05:37] <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+)
[05:37] <Slasher`> minus the quotes

[05:38] <arpa> thanks
[05:38] <blithen> How would I install something like a controller?
[05:38] <andresmujica> i'm having this trouble with ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[05:38] <andresmujica> if i start manually at the server the saned daemon with  saned -d or saned -d128, from the client i can list the scanner with
[05:38] <andresmujica> scanimage -L or even i can scan some images with xsane
[05:38] <andresmujica> but if i start saned with xinetd.d or  i cannot get the scanner listed with scanimage -L nor i can scan with xsane.
[05:38] <andresmujica> any ideas??
[05:38] <yondie> blithen: wat controller
[05:38] <Daverocks> speedie_: well i'm not sure exactly how gnome passes the file to a script in a right click menu
[05:38] <stefg> Bartzy: right click -> properties-> open with...
[05:39] <blithen> It's a logitech gamepad controller.
[05:39] <yondie> well i think you need the modprobe analog

[05:39] <arpa> what I have to do?:(
[05:39] <Daverocks> speedie_: you're not
[05:39] <Daverocks> speedie_: see how there was a space after echo? that's because $1 didn't exist
[05:39] <speedie_> Daverocks: because nothing is passed?

[05:41] <yondie> blithen, you can also install joystik to test it
[05:41] <speedie_> Daverocks: thx for helping, I just want to be able to run command line programs without having to open a terminal and going into the right dir and so on
[05:41] <`Kevin`> arpa: try it in root.. it worked for me
[05:42] <arpa> ok
[05:42] <speedie_> Daverocks: too bad it's not straight forward
[05:42] <deuxexmachinaa> how do i change programs listed on the "start menu" in Kubuntu?
[05:42] <stefg> senniha9: the windows shell command to restore the windows bootloader is 'fixmbr'
[05:42] <Daverocks> speedie_: hm, i'm sure there's some sort of feature "open in terminal"
[05:43] <andresmujica> anyone:  Any help with saned daemon????
[05:43] <Daverocks> senniha9: vista automatically overwrites the MBR when you install it
[05:43] <arpa> hey I installed :X apache
[05:43] <thepower27> I guess no one wants to help with a simple question
[05:43] <thepower27> bye

[05:43] <speedie_> Daverocks: I'm using nautilus ,, you can do a "open with" , that's what I'm trying with my script
[05:44] <thepower27> I asked 3 times
[05:44] <Slasher`> thepower27:try the forums m8, people are usually busy in here
[05:44] <blithen> yondie: It didn't work
[05:44] <smo> use gconf-editor thepower27

[05:44] <Slasher`> if no one answers then then they probably are helping someone else or dont know the answer
[05:44] <slocate> err
[05:44] <Daverocks> speedie_: i understand
[05:44] <slocate> thepower27: 'filesystem'?
[05:44] <blithen> Yeah it's a usb
[05:44] <slocate> thepower27: do you mean the root of a partition?
[05:44] <thepower27> I think so

[05:45] <smo> icon of the mounted drivess...

[05:45] <ubotu> jimraynor: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[05:45] <arpa> Hey I'm installing web min
[05:45] <arpa> webmin is for configuration ?
[05:45] <Frogzoo> does anyone have any links to lists of cool/helpful/essential linux apps?
[05:45] <stefg> !webmin
[05:45] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[05:45] <Daverocks> thepower27: hang on
[05:45] <slocate> thepower27: most likely you can just right click on the desktop, lemme see I haven't used GNOME in a while ;)
[05:46] <arpa> so how can i config my apache?
[05:46] <speedie_> Daverocks: If you create a launcher on the desktop you can choose to make "application in terminal"
[05:46] <stefg> !apache
[05:46] <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+)
[05:46] <danta> arpa what do you want to change in the config?
[05:46] <Daverocks> speedie_: ah
[05:46] <smo> gnomefiles.org kde-apps.org  getdeb.com ..... Frogzoo
[05:46] <Frogzoo> smo: thanks :)
[05:46] <smo> np
[05:46] <arpa> It's my first time that I'm going to use with apache
[05:46] <arpa> I'd like see all of configurations
[05:46] <slocate> thepower27: the most basic one you could do is ln -s <filesystem dir> ~/desktop/name
[05:46] <arpa> I was worked with IIS
[05:46] <slocate> thepower27: whatever gui you used would probably do that
[05:47] <danta> arpa see this file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[05:47] <smo> so make it by hand arpa
[05:47] <Daverocks> thepower27: go to "computer" in Places
[05:47] <arpa> danata: there is all of confugrations ?
[05:47] <jAk> alright people. thanks for your help....
[05:47] <smo> vi /etc/apaxche/httpd.conf
[05:47] <smo> vi /etc/apache/httpd.conf
[05:47] <Daverocks> thepower27: drag Filesystem to your desktop, hold ctrl and shift, and let go
[05:47] <mpcc> back
[05:47] <speedie_> Daverocks: maybe something like this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=493444&highlight=right+click+nautilus
[05:47] <smo> or apache2 not the same thing
[05:48] <slocate> Daverocks: weird, that doesn't work for me
[05:48] <Daverocks> speedie_: ah ownage "cd $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_CURRENT_URI"
[05:48] <Daverocks> slocate: does it bring up an error?
[05:48] <mpcc> hello
[05:49] <mpcc> im back
[05:49] <slocate> Daverocks: no, I mean it doesn't work for the sidebar link and that's the only way I can think of of clicking+dragging the filesystem.
[05:49] <mpcc> the wifi still doesnt work
[05:49] <mpcc> it has identified the card alright but cant connect to it
[05:49] <mpcc> my card as two lights, power and link, power is on but link is dead
[05:49] <Daverocks> slocate: i was referring to the draggable filesystem icon in nautilus
[05:49] <smo> bad configuration the pc or router so mpcc
[05:49] <Daverocks> slocate: that you can see when you open "computer"
[05:49] <smo> not associated
[05:49] <slocate> thepower27: well if that doesn't work, ln -s / ~/Desktop/filesystem will
[05:50] <Daverocks> slocate: too late, he left >.>
[05:50] <slocate> Daverocks: ah, I see :)
[05:50] <slocate> Daverocks: it's in computer
[05:50] <perlim> hello, i'm trying to install ubuntu studio but i'm stuck at the partioning phase. i dont know how to select the one i want and install the system.
[05:50] <Daverocks> slocate: yup
[05:50] <mpcc> hmm ill check the forums of the company that sells the router (same with the ISP)
[05:50] <mpcc> lemme see if i find anything there
[05:50] <smo> do it by hand
[05:50] <smo> to see
[05:50] <mpcc> smo: how ?
[05:51] <stefg> perlim: so you're looking at the screen where you have to assign the partitions? Did you choose manual partitioning?
[05:51] <smo> first get the ap mac
[05:51] <smo> type sudo iwlist scanning
[05:51] <smo> look for your essid
[05:51] <smo> then copy the mac
[05:51] <perlim> i choose manual cause i'm affraid of doing it guided.
[05:51] <Slasher`> i chose manual also
[05:51] <stefg> perlim: rightly so
[05:52] <perlim> so
[05:52] <speedie_> Daverocks: Ha! Now I have a menu option in Nautilus... right click -> scripts -> whatever script you have in .gnome2/nauti...
[05:52] <smo> Address: 42:12:0E:D5:94:5E  exemple
[05:52] <mpcc> smo: ok what next ?
[05:52] <smo> keep the numbers
[05:52] <smo> ok
[05:52] <Daverocks> speedie_: cool
[05:52] <smo> do u know the channel ur router use?
[05:52] <mpcc> smo: errr..no?
[05:52] <speedie_> Daverocks: although it would be cool with a universal solution
[05:52] <smo> humm we ll try with 11
[05:52] <perlim> i have 2 disks and 6 partitions. i want to install ubuntu at #2
[05:52] <stefg> perlim: so define 'i'm stuck' a little bit more
[05:52] <perlim> 26.6.gb
[05:52] <smo> thats all
[05:52] <perlim> ok
[05:53] <smo> so copy those lines in a file
[05:53] <smo> first
[05:53] <mpcc> smo: ok did it
[05:53] <stefg> perlim: you need at last 2 partitions for ubuntu, prefarably 3
[05:53] <smo> sudo iwconfig wlan0 channel X
[05:53] <smo> where x is your channel try 11 first
[05:53] <mpcc> ok
[05:53] <mpcc> did it
[05:53] <smo> don t do that now
[05:53] <smo> just save
[05:53] <mpcc> oh. ok
[05:54] <smo> then
[05:54] <smo> sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid yournetworkname
[05:54] <smo> then
[05:54] <perlim> I enter the #2 partition and then configure the file system to KeiserFS then choose to format, then mount point /media/sdb2, then mount options defaults, label: none, Flag: inactive.
[05:54] <stefg> perlim: can you do a screenshot, or run sudo fdisk -l in a term and paste that to !pastebin
[05:54] <smo> sudo iwconfig wlan0 ap 06:41:E6:F8:40:7C  for exemple (copy your address)
[05:55] <perlim> did you get stefg?
[05:55] <Docmur> Hello all
[05:55] <smo> normally you must have you second light ok
[05:55] <arpa> WB MFOX:D
[05:55] <stefg> perlim: get waht?
[05:55] <mpcc> smo: so when i hit the right channel the light should turn on ?
[05:55] <perlim> then I end the partition preparation
[05:55] <Docmur> So anyone know of a way to make ext3 native in windows
[05:55] <perlim> my partition configuration?
[05:55] <smo> y
[05:55] <[M] Fox> arpa: tnx dude
[05:55] <Docmur> it's so I can access my music
[05:55] <smo> so unplug your network wire
[05:56] <Lamego> Docmur, use a live cd
[05:56] <sn0> Docmur try fs-driver.org to mount as ext2
[05:56] <smo> then use those 3 commands in the order i use
[05:56] <mpcc> smo: ok ill go ahead and try, which channels should i try ? or how many are there? any channels i shouldnt try ?
[05:56] <Docmur> thanks
[05:56] <sn0> i wouldn't use it to install windows on, but it will safely read/write to ext2
[05:56] <smo> channel/essid/ap
[05:56] <smo> try 11 first
[05:56] <smo> then 1
[05:56] <vehicle> new to ubuntu, i want a bootable cd (live cd??) because my laptop got stolen and want to get used to ubuntu so i can have it on my new computer.  what are my best options
[05:56] <smo> 1 to 13 or search in your router config
[05:56] <sn0> vehicle the ubuntu cd is a livecd :) so that is fine
[05:56] <perlim> did you read my configuration options Stefg?
[05:56] <mpcc> smo: ok, thanx i lll go try and hopefully ill return wireless!
[05:57] <sn0> www.ubuntu.com and download
[05:57] <Jadder> hello, I want some example of the command cut specially with the option -b
[05:57] <vehicle> so just dl the image and plop it in?
[05:57] <smo> let me know :)
[05:57] <Nutubuntu> vehicle,  yes
[05:57] <vehicle> thankyou
[05:57] <sn0> vehicle correct
[05:57] <stefg> perlim: yeah,i read it. first of all you need to assign a partition as root ( / )... but you'll need a swap partition as well, and for a media-distro i'd recommend having /home separate, too
[05:57] <Nutubuntu> vehicle,  the "alternative" and "minimal" cd images are not live, just the standard one
[05:57] <W_McL> vehicle: download the "Desktop" CD it's a live CD which you also can use as install CD
[05:57] <perlim> how do i do that?!
[05:58] <Jadder> hello, I want some example of the command cut specially with the option -b
[05:58] <vehicle> alright, awesome.  I saw ubuntustudio the other day, should i think about going with that?
[05:58] <stefg> perlim: so to give you real advice, i would need to look at your screen now, or get a sudo fdisk -l listing on !pastebin
[05:58] <perlim> oh! at the mount point?!
[05:59] <stefg> perlim: yeah, the mountpoint is important
[06:00] <perlim> ok I've choose /
[06:00] <stefg> perlim: but don't waste the effort. if you don't have swap space prepared, you'll have to delete the partition and split some swapspace off
[06:00] <tomasso> hello i had /dev/hdb cdrom device, but i dont know why it dissapeared
[06:01] <tomasso> any clues on that?
[06:01] <perlim> but it is advising to creat a swap partion. i have another partition with 26.6Gb but that's to big to a swap, right?
[06:01] <tomasso> ls /dev/hdb
[06:01] <tomasso> ls: /dev/hdb: No such file or directory
[06:01] <tomasso> :S
[06:01] <Nutubuntu> perlim,  at most you'd want 2X your RAM in a swap
[06:02] <stefg> perlim: yes... if it's not a notebook (whicj needs the amount of Ram as swapspace for hibernation) you'll be fine with 256-512 MB
[06:02] <UberPsyX> i just patched and compiled wine version 0.9.29 and it says i openGL development headers
[06:02] <UberPsyX> *need
[06:02] <UberPsyX> what should i be looking for
[06:03] <smo> libgl1-mesa-dev maybe
[06:03] <FruitieX> UberPsyX: maybe try sudo apt-get build-dep wine from the un official wine repos
[06:03] <Paradox> hi, quick question, i want to install from a live cd, it runs ubuntu fine but only in 800x600 max. how can I force it to maintain a higher resolution?
[06:04] <abelp> how do i part this 26.6gb into one of 4gb since i have 2gb ram?
[06:04] <stefg> perlim: so i would delete the 26.6 gb part, and create on 26 gb (reiserfs if you like) and 0,6 GB swapspace
[06:04] <Nutubuntu> Be well all -
[06:05] <magnetron> abelp: even if you have 2GB ram, you will not need 4GB swap. 1GB swap is more than enough.
[06:05] <smo> try adding --vga=792 on boot options maybe Paradox
[06:05] <abelp> so how do i part this 26.6Gb?
[06:05] <smo> now it works on tty bt don t know if ti affect xorg resolution
[06:06] <cholo> help this filipoino mother http://www.asianbabecams.com/free.asp?Performer=SexyHotGirl

[06:07] <Jadder> command cut -b, I want a example,
[06:07] <Paradox> thanks smo, I chose the resolutions (think its F4), it accepted the resolution but once it gets to nautilus it just changes back to 800x600
[06:07] <Bartzy> How do I make the icons in the desktop smaller ?
[06:07] <Paradox> will --vga=792 force it?
[06:07] <Slasher`> damn spammers
[06:08] <magnetron> nixternal: ompaul flushed the ban list today, expect more of that this week
[06:08] <FruitieX> Paradox: what video card are you using (did i miss something?)

[06:10] <firelord901> stefg: yes
[06:10] <Hitomaro> here is what I get whenever I try to partition on the alternate cd
[06:10] <Hitomaro> http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/1900/221ka8.jpg
[06:10] <FruitieX> Paradox: oh
[06:10] <JKtheCJer> this sucks: i formatted and installed dapper after reading that my gps worked under it (but not my previous: feisty); the damn thing still doesnt work
[06:10] <MFen> smo: you have ubuntu installed on a usb drive. that's not what i want. i want to install it to my hard drive, without a CD
[06:10] <Bartzy> stefg - it's there ? making all icons size different  ?
[06:10] <nkr> i formatted my windows and lost my grub menu and i cant seem to put it on again can someone help me?
[06:10] <FruitieX> Paradox: have you tried system -> settings -> display resolution?
[06:10] <MFen> actually if there's any other way to install it to a partition without a CD i'm all ears
[06:10] <magnetron> !grub | nkr
[06:10] <ubotu> nkr: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:10] <smo> yeah it install it from usb too on the hard drive
[06:11] <MFen> smo: how do you do that?
[06:11] <yasser> i know this question is inrelated...but can i install ZENWALK live 4.6 to hard disk? plz say....
[06:11] <nkr> already did that steps from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-bf3232f10ddf1b078de064622ccbb25225cdb3c0
[06:11] <Paradox> yeah, it doesnt go higher than 800x600
[06:11] <smo> i download the normal live cd then change everything
[06:11] <stefg> Bartzy: there's a common setting that resizes all icons to 100%, 75%, 50% and so on... But please read docu, that's better than patchy explanations
[06:11] <smo> :)
[06:11] <smo> just some file to move to boot from usb

[06:12] <FruitieX> Paradox, press CTRL+ALT+F1, type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, edit the last lines with the resolutions, press CTRL+X to exit then Y to save. Then press CTRL+ALT+F7 and then CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[06:12] <W_McL> smo: I know that it's possible to boot from an ISO image, just forgot where the howto site is

[06:17] <techbie> hello all ,  i experienced  problem while installing  ubuntu , as the installer does not show lvm partition , is  ubuntu installer lvm aware
[06:17] <Hitomaro> who was helping me out earlier with the alternate cd? is anyone familiar to it?
[06:17] <ryanakca> why is Xorg taking 39.9% of my MEM? I don't have beryl or anything fancy running...
[06:17] <danta> bartzy: You can change the default size for all of the icons on the Gnome desktop and the file manager, Nautilus.
[06:17] <danta> type "nautilus" into a terminal. The nautilus GUI will appear. In the edit menu select preferences. Under "Icon View Defaults" and "List View Defaults" change the zoom level to 75% or whatever. The results are both immediate and lasting.
[06:17] <Anlar> ryanakca: firefox leaks.
[06:17] <sebas_> ryanakca, the percentage depends on the total amount of memory you have
[06:17] <stefg> Hitomaro: although the screenshot idea is good, the quality is so bad that you can't read anything
[06:17] <mpcc> hey, how do I run wireless assistant with sudo ? do i have to do it in the ocmmand line ?
[06:18] <Hitomaro> stefg
[06:18] <FruitieX> Paradox, NP ;)
[06:18] <danta> bartzy: it did the trick for me
[06:18] <Anlar> ryanakca: firefox borrows bitmap cache of X11, and doesn't release properly. especially if you have a lot of simultaneous tabs open
[06:18] <W_McL> MFen: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html
[06:18] <Hitomaro> I'll get a bigger one for you and I'll see if it help
[06:18] <Hitomaro> s*
[06:18] <smo> retry wifi-radar
[06:19] <Anlar> ryanakca: it has been like that since firefox 0.3 or so, and will never be fixed because the firefox developers love hiding their memory management problems with that
[06:19] <mpcc> smo: ok what do i do ?
[06:19] <smo> apt-get..
[06:19] <MFen> W_McL: thanks!

[06:20] <FruitieX> RedWolf, install something else than the gnome terminal
[06:20] <smo> run it now
[06:20] <mpcc> how ?
[06:20] <RedWolf> such as FruitieX?
[06:20] <Hitomaro> stefg: how about this? http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/8066/221252542gg9.jpg
[06:20] <dawlink> ok
[06:20] <smo> you ll see the networks list
[06:20] <FruitieX> RedWolf: I'll check
[06:20] <RedWolf> thanks I appreciate your help
[06:20] <FruitieX> NP :)
[06:20] <stefg> RedWolf: check your process list if there is a zombie gnome-terminal somwhere
[06:21] <RedWolf> okay stef...but I've reboot about 15 times
[06:21] <nich0s> How can I swtich desktops with a keyboard shortcut? On KDE?
[06:21] <ryanakca> Anlar: ah, hehe, okies, tab closing time, I guess :)
[06:21] <FruitieX> RedWolf: You can try multi-gnome-terminal :P
[06:21] <stefg> Hitomaro: ok. let me see
[06:21] <mpcc> err..sorry but i am very new, networks ?
[06:21] <mpcc> where do i find the wifi-radar to run it ?
[06:21] <Anlar> ryanakca: it doesn't get released, at least not immediately. it's common for people that actually surf the intterwebs a lot to get X11 process to 2G etc
[06:21] <`Kevin`> how do you setup webmin to apache
[06:21] <RedWolf> no zombie process
[06:22] <Hitomaro> stefg, thats the best I could get... I was a recording through tv-out
[06:22] <smo> sudo wifi-radar
[06:22] <stefg> RedWolf: add a new user, and check if it's the same with a fresh account
[06:22] <smo> or internet menu in gnome
[06:22] <Hitomaro> and it comes out poor whenever I use ubuntu
[06:22] <RedWolf> Okay stef.. I'll brb
[06:22] <stefg> Hitomaro: good enough to figure it out somehow
[06:22] <felipe__> nbody?
[06:22] <kbrooks> ok, i have a hardware problem, as follows.
[06:22] <Hitomaro> stefg, out
[06:22] <Hitomaro> ok*
[06:22] <Hitomaro> opps
[06:23] <Black_Monkey> I've started to get short freezes every few minutes, and I was wondering if this might be because I changed the "swappiness" from 60 to 10?
[06:23] <mpcc> nope its not there, it said during the installation that it couldnt resolve gb.archive.ubuntu.com and did fetch some .deb files
[06:23] <`Kevin`> Can someone help me setup webmin on Apache for Ubuntu
[06:23] <nafik_> hi, i've issue with cedega 6.0.2+World of Warcraft... almost everything is allright except right-displaying some chars... for example: when i write in game ".,()", i will get ++++
[06:23] <Hitomaro> hey stefg, so what should I do?
[06:23] <kbrooks> i have a usb thumbdrive and a usb mouse. the usb mouse doesn't successfully plug in, even with logo side up.
[06:23] <mpcc> ill try through synaptic
[06:24] <kbrooks> the usb thumbdrive plugs in with logo side up.
[06:24] <kbrooks> any ideas on what could be up?
[06:24] <stefg> Hitomaro: you need one (1) partition to be root that is / )... which is probably sda3. Change that mountpoint to  /
[06:24] <mpcc> this is weird, webpages dont open
[06:24] <andyc> hello
[06:24] <RedWolf> stef, same problem..
[06:25] <Neolithium> nafik_ have you installed the MS Proprietary fonts?
[06:25] <mpcc> hmm weird, only irc works on internet now
[06:25] <enyo> i need help configureing grub for windows xp, ive edited menu.lst to add the correct partion but it gives invalid device (or somthing similar) when i try booting it
[06:25] <kbrooks> i have a usb thumbdrive and a usb mouse. the usb mouse doesn't successfully plug in, even with logo side up. the usb thumbdrive plugs in with logo side up. any ideas what could be up?
[06:25] <uberushaximus> ...
[06:25] <andyc> do any of you guys know the dkms legacy driver for ubuntu is called
[06:25] <magnetron> nafik_: you will Cedega is not free and open source, you will have to talk to the company who makes cedega. Use Wine instead, Wow runs perfectly in Wine. http://wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine
[06:25] <kbrooks> mpcc, have you tried cycling your modem and/or router?
[06:25] <Hitomaro> stefg, yeah I know how to change it with livecd install but I don't know how to make it a swap area and a mountpoint to / because it doesn't give you that option
[06:26] <FruitieX> RedWolf: You can also give xfce4-terminal a try, and if that fails you can always use xterm ;D
[06:26] <stefg> RedWolf: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-terminal
[06:26] <mpcc> kbrooks cycling router how/what do u mean ?
[06:26] <nafik_> neolithium: no, i don't
[06:26] <kbrooks> mpcc, unplugging/plugging it in again.
[06:26] <RedWolf> k hold on I need to switch to the ctrl+alt+f3 thing lol
[06:26] <RedWolf> that's the ONLY terminal I have

[06:29] <Dominat0r> latex
[06:29] <FruitieX> RedWolf: Or do you really want the gnome one?
[06:29] <dr_willis> `Kevin`,  its not officially supported in the repos any more
[06:29] <FruitieX> brb, trying Xfce4
[06:30] <jimraynor> hi, i read the pages you guys told me to read about sound problems, and it doesn't work!
[06:30] <jimraynor> can anyone help?
[06:30] <stefg> RedWolf: you'd need some sensible error message. <alt-f2> and run  xterm , enter gnome-terminal there and see what error appears
[06:30] <toed> I'm in the ubuntu livecd, and I'm trying to resize and ext3 partition without losing data, but gparted won't le me do it. do I have any other options?
[06:31] <dr_willis> gparted should let ya.. Unless you got a weird partition layout.
[06:31] <stefg> toed: unmount all drives
[06:31] <dr_willis> toed,  yes. be sure partitions are all unmounted.
[06:31] <toed> they are unmounted
[06:31] <Slasher`> i had a problem with gparted too
[06:32] <ascii13> anyone have any suggestions on getting wine to work? whenever i try to start it my computer just locks up
[06:32] <kbrooks> toed, check again
[06:32] <toed> I've got [windows] [free space] [/] [swap]  and I want to resize / to use up all the free space
[06:32] <Slasher`> it lets me resize a partition if i can stretch it towards the right
[06:32] <stefg> toed: and have a backup and nothing particular to do on the box for the next 4 hours or so
[06:32] <Slasher`> but it wont let me stretch it towards the left
[06:32] <toed> ah, so it's a direction problem
[06:32] <dr_willis> toed,  if they are all 4 primaries that should be doable.. but that may also change the order of the partitiosn.
[06:32] <Paradox> FruitieX, thanks, got it going. as a matter of interest the term comes up with HUGE characters and you cant see half the screen
[06:32] <FruitieX> ascii13: have you tried launching it from a console?
[06:32] <RedWolf> stefg, The program 'gnome-terminal' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
[06:33] <dr_willis> toed,  more of a taking space from a extended, putting it in a primary/logical issue I think
[06:33] <FruitieX> Paradox: no problem
[06:33] <ascii13> yeah, the only message i get is that it's creating the .wine directory and then it locks up
[06:33] <RedWolf> (Details: serial 105 error_Code 2 request_code 78 mirror_code 0)
[06:33] <Paradox> I've editted xorg.conf with nano in normal term and control alt backspace worked

[06:33] <FruitieX> Paradox: an easier solution would have been: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, didn't remember that one at the right time, sorry! :D
[06:33] <toed> dr_willis: swap is in an extended by itself
[06:33] <Paradox> no problem
[06:33] <ascii13> the directory doesn't actually get created though
[06:33] <danta> toed, you can use the systemRecueCD, it has a lot of partitioning tools http://www.sysresccd.org/
[06:34] <Paradox> just running it off live cd so i can get the installation going
[06:34] <FruitieX> Paradox: have fun exploring Ubuntu! :)
[06:34] <newuser00> what is the Xclient script that can be selected at the login screen in ubuntu?
[06:34] <dr_willis> toed,  ive learned it pays to just make everything primaries... :)
[06:34] <toed> Slasher`: what did you end up doing?
[06:34] <Paradox> will do :
[06:34] <Slasher`> leaving it lmao
[06:34] <FruitieX> hehe
[06:34] <Paradox> cheers
[06:34] <dr_willis> toed,  you could delete the swap partition, then resize the /

[06:35] <dr_willis> toed,  move swap to left.. :)  Id say check/post the fdisk -l , output, and see exactly what partitions are where.
[06:35] <danta> toed, it has 5 or 6 different partitioning tools, so one of them has got to get the job done

[06:52] <user_> euhm, i've just seen something mentioned about linux limited kernel size. Is linux kernel size limited? anyone?:)
[06:52] <maxwell> so tell me the channel i should log on to
[06:52] <ArtVandalae> orbisvicis, yes, use ddclient (I think that's what it's called)
[06:52] <ehzon1> stefs, !mountwindows doesn't work
[06:52] <Nyle> i'm using 7.04 and glxinfo says indirect rendering.  I am using fglrx driver
[06:53] <skollie> it is ddclient, yes
[06:53] <crescent_> kbrooks, check cd for defects you mean
[06:53] <kbrooks> crescent_, do not reburn or redownload until you have the exact issue pinned down.
[06:53] <maxwell> redwolf tell me the right channel
[06:53] <crescent_> kbrooks, ok
[06:53] <Nyle> how do I get direct rendering instead of indirect
[06:53] <jAk> Skollie : Ok done that
[06:53] <orbisvicis> thanks ArtVandalae
[06:53] <crescent_> kbrooks, are u hanging around
[06:53] <kbrooks> crescent_, if that checks out OK, then you can check the CD iso itself
[06:53] <enyo> grub gives me the error message "invalid device" .. can anyone help?
[06:53] <skollie> jAk: and did you change your video output
[06:53] <acu> ehzon1: I successfully use to boot Knoppix 5.1 (or even older) and use QTParted to do NTFS resizes etc. --- however when you start the resize it might look that is stack - but you have to wait long (depends on the HDD size, the defragmentation status of the HDD- so better defrag before) sometimes 30 minute or so...
[06:53] <kbrooks> crescent_, yes, just go and do your thing :-)
[06:54] <Slasher`> maxwell do the command you were shown earlier with sudo at the start of it (no dont actually but still, you wont get any help here with anything related to cracking stuff)
[06:54] <firelord901> Can someone help me. I had to reinstall Alsa and when I go into sound preferences there is no default mixer tracks.
[06:54] <jAk> Ok, i hightlighted xv and tested the movie and still doing the same no picture but sound only
[06:55] <user_> so.. guys, nobody know anything about linux kernel size limitation? (euhm, as i guess this limitation is only dependable on the distro or so.. to fit on cd maybe i guess he, isnt it?)
[06:55] <vehicle> if i am using live cd, and i customize the settings they dont stay do they
[06:55] <ascii13> anyone have any suggestions on getting wine working? when i try to run it, it just says "creating directory /home/luser/.wine" and then locks up. the .wine directory doesn't actually get created
[06:55] <skollie> jAk: have you tried the default X11/XImage
[06:56] <dropety> Nyle: try putting Option "RenderAccel" "true" in your xorg.conf
[06:56] <firelord901> Can someone help me. I had to reinstall Alsa and when I go into sound preferences there is no default mixer tracks.
[06:56] <kbrooks> oh ....
[06:56] <kbrooks> no.
[06:56] <jAk> I just tried the X11 (OpenGl) and works ;) Thanks for your help LOL
[06:56] <Nyle> dropety: in the device section?
[06:56] <sdouble> with kate, can you show line numbers?
[06:57] <sdouble> found it
[06:57] <jAk> So much to learn... and so far i like it
[06:57] <FruitieX> why does my window managers say "No sync extension" when trying to start them?
[06:57] <skollie> jAk: np
[06:57] <orbisvicis> firelord901, try #alsa
[06:57] <FruitieX> ** (xfwm4:8488): WARNING **: The display does not support the XShape extension.
[06:57] <FruitieX> ** (xfwm4:8488): WARNING **: The display does not support the XSync extension.
[06:57] <dropety> Nyle: yes, where your "Driver "nvidia" is
[06:57] <ingo_> hi all! please, how can i create a 2rd sudo-user by shell command?!
[06:57] <ehzon1> acu, gparted starts the operation but stops because ubuntu automatically remounts the partition the partition has been resized but before gparted can continue checking and tweeking the partition size
[06:57] <Nyle> dropety: no fglrx
[06:58] <Frogzoo> user_: there aren't any limits on kernel size
[06:58] <stefg> ingo_: jsut add a user to the admin group to let him have sudo-privs
[06:58] <firelord901> orbisvictis: I did that and it just brought me to another terminal line
[06:58] <firelord901> orbisvictis: nothing popped up
[06:58] <skollie> ascii13: think it's an install problem with wine. If I'm not mistaked, the /.wine dir should be created when you install
[06:59] <dr_willis> ingo_,  could always edit the /etc/sudoers file .  Not sure  how else to do it. I rarely have done that.
[06:59] <ingo_> stefg: should i use adduser, useradd ?
[06:59] <danta> before running wine you have to run the config
[06:59] <stefg> ingo_: adduser <foo>
[06:59] <dropety> 2rd??
[06:59] <ingo_> stefg: thanks!
[06:59] <stefg> ingo_: then adduser <foo> ;admin
[06:59] <orbisvicis> firelord901, /join #alsa
[07:00] <orbisvicis> it exists
[07:00] <firelord901> orbisvicis: o thats what u meant lol
[07:00] <dropety> Nyle: which driver are you using. Oh I think nvidia has no fglrx but does do glx
[07:00] <RedWolf> Okay now that I've fixed my terminal problem lol, can any one help with my dual-monitor question? I want to make my 2nd monitor Desk 2 so that I can play a game full screen on it, and then have my other applications running on desk 1 simultaneously.
[07:00] <ascii13> danta:  i tried running winecfg, it freezes the computer right after it gives me the "creating directory" message
[07:01] <skollie> ascii13: did you try sudo winecfg
[07:01] <ascii13> skollie: i tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it from apt-get, but i still have the same problem
[07:01] <user_> Frogzoo: yea, as i togth
[07:01] <ascii13> yeah sudo winecfg froze it also
[07:01] <larryone> hi
[07:01] <switchcat> question one: running the ubuntu 7.04 install cd (bootable system) I get an "error starting the Gnome settings daemon... did not receive a reply".. is this common?
[07:01] <RedWolf> right now the desks are huge and spanning both screens.. I'd like to make each screen its individual environment
[07:02] <stefg> !twinview
[07:02] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[07:02] <larryone> does anyone know how I can install grub to a USB flash drive? my laptop can't boot its own disk
[07:02] <stefg> !dualhead
[07:02] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[07:02] <larryone> !grub
[07:02] <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
[07:02] <skollie> got me stumped ascii13. try creating the .wine dir manually  - probably will create a further problem, but it should perhaps give you more of an indication what the problem is
[07:02] <Anlar> larryone: just run grub with root priviledges and setup (hd(somenumber)) and voila.
[07:02] <Frogzoo> larryone: very odd for a laptop to not boot the hard drive - impossible I'd have thought
[07:03] <ingo_> stefg: how is the command for adding a new user with sudo-rights and the home-directory of my 1st sudo-user?
[07:03] <ascii13> skollie: i'll give it a shot :)
[07:03] <switchcat> question two: what sort of processor/system is 7.04 geared at? I've got a 500mhz PIII and the system seems slow.. and to produce exceptionally high loads (well over 3.xx) pretty commonly (once it showed 8.xx) upon bootup and install...
[07:03] <codecaine> where can I get w32codec deb file?
[07:04] <Frogzoo> switchcat: you want to try xubuntu
[07:04] <RedWolf> well... I have one large virtual display right now.. that's what I don't want. I want separate desks per monitor...does that make senes?
[07:04] <Frogzoo> switchcat: or fvwm
[07:04] <enyo> whats xubuntu?
[07:04] <sahi1> hey, i am on Xubuntu live CD right now
[07:04] <larryone> Frogzoo, Anlar, the problem was I ws installing ubuntu to an external SATA drive, but the install edited the MBR on my laprop instaling grub stage1   now I cn't boot windows disk without external drive because external drive has grub stage 2 on it
[07:04] <Frogzoo> !xubuntu
[07:04] <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
[07:04] <stefg> ingo_: you can't have 2 users with a common home-dir... one user<foo>, one /home/<foo>
[07:04] <larryone> so I'm trying to install grub to a USB flash drive for the meantime
[07:05] <ingo_> stefg: ah ok ...
[07:05] <switchcat> frogzoo - yeah, lovely _now_ they tell me... after I spent three hours downloading ubuntu
[07:05] <zerokill88> What command would i use to see the name of the drive im on??
[07:05] <DjViper> where can I find a gnome / metacity theme editor?
[07:06] <Anlar> larryone: you got windows installation cd? it can fix the mbr very easily
[07:06] <ehzon1> how can I stop ubuntu from automatically mounting disk partitions
[07:06] <stefg> ingo_: you can excessively link files over, but his imposes security problems, because they need to be group writable (and i don't know if there's app which test for permissions)
[07:06] <skollie> ascii13: your problem might be related to permissions problems when running wine
[07:06] <larryone> Anlar, I don thave  the admin passwd for windows
[07:06] <ingo_> DjViper: use the gnome-artmanager ...
[07:06] <Anlar> larryone: arg?
[07:07] <larryone> Anlar, the guy who has the passwd is on holiday....
[07:07] <PirateLeChuck> hi, does ubuntu have a package manager like yum?
[07:07] <Anlar> larryone: call him/her/it
[07:07] <stefg> !apt
[07:07] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:07] <stefg> !botsnack
[07:07] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[07:07] <Frogzoo> switchcat: just add the xubuntu package
[07:07] <larryone> Anlar, not a great idea. he'd rip my head off upon return
[07:07] <PirateLeChuck> ubotu, cheers for the info
[07:07] <ingo_> stefg: (just) a new user with sudo-rights is ok for me ...
[07:07] <switchcat> yeah frog.. I gotta install first I guess.. which leads me to my next question
[07:08] <b0ha> ehzon1 i think you should edit /etc/fstab
[07:08] <larryone> I'm tring to basically create a grub boot disk on a usb flash drive
[07:08] <switchcat> Question: can I run an unbutu install from the CLI rather than from the gnome gui, and if so, how?
[07:08] <mc44> !alternate | switchcat
[07:08] <Anlar> larryone: I'm not entirely sure that you need the password. using the installation disc you should be able to reset password and/or run the "fixmbr" and "fixboot" commands in recovery console anyways
[07:08] <ubotu> switchcat: 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
[07:09] <PirateLeChuck> !botsnack
[07:09] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[07:09] <PirateLeChuck> haha
[07:09] <mc44> switchcat: i.e. use the alternate CD for a CLI install
[07:09] <PirateLeChuck> nice one
[07:09] <ehzon1> b0ha: fstab has two entries: one for unionfs and one for tmpfs - nothing specific to the partions I don't want mounted
[07:09] <switchcat> !minimal
[07:09] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:09] <larryone> Anlar, I'll try it when I can find a win cd
[07:09] <crescent_> kbrooks, check cd for defects ended in crc error
[07:09] <ilf> feisty install alternate: "no common cd-rom drive was detected". before that it loads a floppy which doesn't exist in the box. hardware: lg e500-sprbg. wtf?
[07:10] <switchcat> mc44 - yeah, only problem with that is that it already took me over 3 hours to download the ubuntu cd
[07:10] <crescent_> kbrooks, I have to reburn that I guess but I really did not get that
[07:10] <Drk_Guy> Hey guys
[07:10] <Anlar> larryone: I think you have to press f8 at the bootup phase and then select recovery console or something like that.. but it should allow you to fix it with those 2 commands.
[07:10] <mc44> switchcat: why don't you use that one then
[07:10] <PirateLeChuck> switchcat, sadly we live in a wolrd of dsl haves and have nots ;(
[07:10] <Lamington> I have a question
[07:10] <Drk_Guy> How to unmount an ISO?
[07:10] <Anlar> larryone: or, you can indeed fix the grub to boot both windows and linux. which is not very hard I think.
[07:10] <switchcat> mc44 - for the reasons I just mentioned, and that it already froze on one install so far
[07:10] <larryone> Anlar, thanks a million.... in the meantime I'll try to press ahead with the boot image on the flash drive
[07:11] <Lamington> How do you pronounce Ubuntu ? Is it ew-bunt-too or oo-boon-too ?
[07:11] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: umount /media/<....>
[07:11] <larryone> Anlar, the grub is not broken
[07:11] <b0ha> ehzon1, sorry but im new to linux so i have no idea, but in my fstab are listed all partitions
[07:11] <switchcat> It got to over 60% and didn't seem to complete.  woke up, and the system was frozen and wouldnt boot from the HD
[07:11] <Drk_Guy> Larryone, extract the files from the ISO to the drive
[07:11] <PirateLeChuck> switchcat, i have been trying to install fedora 7 on my laptop this morning (from a dvd) with the same results, i am now downloading ubuntu, tbh the best install i have done recently is mandriva!
[07:11] <stefg> ilf: kernel doesn't like your motherboard/disk-controller. see if a USB-install would be a way out
[07:11] <Anlar> larryone: oh okay. or, you can force it to install the grub on the internal drive.. and it to boot to windows and the linux..
[07:11] <larryone> Drk_Guy, ???
[07:12] <ompaul> Lamington, got the live disk?
[07:12] <ehzon1> b0ha: Thanks for the thought - I think there's something else running that doing the mounts
[07:12] <Drk_Guy> Ehzon1, bash reports "order not found"
[07:12] <PirateLeChuck> with mandriva my wirless worked fisrt time, everything went very smooth, i am giving ubuntu a chance now and will choose then
[07:12] <d2812> I was planning on syncing my home directory on my laptop and desktop.  Ideally this should be done transparently, i.e. when I login/out on the laptop it updates the desktop if it avalible.  What do people suggest I use to do this?
[07:12] <DjViper> where can I find a gnome / metacity theme EDITOR?
[07:12] <switchcat> at least my loads seem down to normal now.
[07:12] <Drk_Guy> Lasrryone, IsoBuster gives you an idea
[07:12] <Drk_Guy> ??
[07:13] <stefg> !rsync | d2812
[07:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:13] <stefg> !info rsync | d2812
[07:13] <ubotu> d2812: rsync: fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 2.6.9-3ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 254 kB, installed size 504 kB
[07:13] <PirateLeChuck> i had wireless issues previously with fedora 6 so tied mandriva but would prefer to use ubuntu as it seems better supported and totally open
[07:13] <Lamington> ompaul: Just wondering how you pronounce it
[07:13] <Nyle> hey i got dri
[07:13] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: are you asking about mounting a DVD/CD or did you mount the image file?
[07:13] <ascii13> skollie: i tried manually making the .wine directory and running wine, and i did get a few errors this time before my computer locked up
[07:13] <Nyle> i had to reinstall the driver
[07:13] <Drk_Guy> I want to UNMOUNT
[07:13] <Nyle> i dunno why

[07:14] <crazybyte> hi! did somebody in this channel make an ubuntu install kit that resides on a usb flash drive?
[07:14] <ascii13> any ideas?
[07:14] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: the unmount command is 'umount'
[07:14] <Drk_Guy> AscII, sudo rm -rf /home/<username>/.wine
[07:14] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[07:14] <Drk_Guy> I'll try
[07:14] <crazybyte> i have some issues with it and i want to verify some ideas that could explain the errors
[07:14] <ompaul> Lamington, point your movie player at /usr/share/examples/example-content/experience-ubuntu.ogg
[07:14] <dropety> Nyle: how did you do it? - through the NVIDIA-provided package?
[07:15] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: did you mount a DVD/CD or an iso file? (want to know to help you unmount it)
[07:15] <Lamington> ompaul: ok
[07:15] <skollie> ascii13: yes I thought so. All those dirs need to be created when running wine the first time as normal user -either permissions or driver issues
[07:15] <dropety> Nyle: I thought dri should be disabled when using the nvidia driver
[07:15] <Drk_Guy> ISO file
[07:15] <Nyle> dropety: again... fglrx not nvidia.  And no I just recompiled the kernel module with module assistant
[07:15] <Nyle> !xgl

[07:16] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: at the command line enter "mount <cr>" to get a listing of things mounted ...
[07:16] <dropety> Nyle: I was under the impression that when you use the nvidia-provided package, the glx is installed for you and does not need extra manual work
[07:16] <crescent_> my xubuntu install cd gives a crc error in cd check, should I reburn that?
[07:16] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: You should see the file you mounted and the where it was mounted, then ....
[07:16] <kismet> crescent_, yes
[07:16] <judyc> In Package Manager, I select to download pkg files only. Can any one tell me where do these files go after downloaded? I can't find them after downloaded

[07:17] <stefg> judyc: /var/cache/apt/archives
[07:17] <kismet> judyc, /var/cache/apt/archieves
[07:17] <DjViper> whats wrong when my wired network connection dies when transferring 'large' files?
[07:17] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: to unmount the file, do "umount <mount directory>" and it should un-mount.  ...
[07:17] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[07:17] <crescent_> kismet, I will use the same software and dvd writer, will sth change
[07:17] <judyc> Thanks, stefg&kismet
[07:17] <crescent_> kismet, I did not get that
[07:17] <Drk_Guy> So, the thing is: umount /mnt/linuximage
[07:18] <Drk_Guy> ??
[07:18] <kismet> crescent_, try burning it at a lower speed usually helps
[07:18] <ehzon1> Drk_Guy: make sure you're not in the directory tree where the iso file was mounted when you issue the umount command
[07:18] <crescent_> kismet, I also thought it lets try
[07:18] <kismet> G' Luck
[07:18] <Drk_Guy> No "cd" command
[07:18] <crescent_> kismet, thx
[07:18] <jeremysan> Hi all.  I recently bought a D-Link WUA-1340 (a wireless USB card).

[07:21] <nixlover> hey.. does anyone know if gimp has plugins or ext to make joomla templates
[07:21] <arooni> folks i have an amd sempron 2400+, 512MB of PC 2100 ram, and i have to say that ubuntu 7.04 feels really slow.  I notice using 'top' that all my main memory is used, and 100MB of swap is used.  question:  to increase performance in a budget way - should i go ahead and upgrade the board/cpu/memory?  or will adding another stick of 512 mb PC2100  make a big enough difference so that I don't...
[07:21] <arooni> ...have to do this.
[07:22] <arooni> cpu shows used @ 87.3% pretty much all the time
[07:22] <newuser00> whats the best way to install//uninstall aplications without breaking dependancies?
[07:22] <kismet> arooni, are you using ntfs-3g ?
[07:22] <kismet> newuser00, sudo apt-get remove app
[07:22] <ehzon1> !mountwindows

[07:22] <kismet> newuser00, or via synaptic
[07:22] <stefg> arooni: the hardware should be fine, and your memory is used for buffers/swap. what does 'free -m' tell?
[07:23] <dropety> Nyle: sorry about the mixup
[07:23] <arooni> kismet: yes i am... but when i'm talking aobut 'slow' i'm not talking about accessing ntfs drives.... just normal linux apps
[07:23] <stefg> s/swap/cache
[07:23] <ompaul> arooni, it would not be linux if it did not map all memory itself, more ram usually helps, however I have a question you say 87% cpu, what is the top process in top most of the time?
[07:23] <Slasher`> hey people, i have a problem with compiz fusion which i just installed, am i asking in the right place here?

[07:25] <newuser00> kismet: thank you. i asked because i had trouble earlier when i installed something using the Add/Remove interface. it seemed to generate some conflicts
[07:25] <mattyrigby00> was just testing something dw about that name lol
[07:25] <arooni> firefox is gobbling 31.4% of my memory
[07:25] <stefg> arooni: go to the gnome system monitor and look which process this is
[07:26] <arooni> stefg: how do i get to the gnome system monitor
[07:26] <LukeEkblad> Yo
[07:26] <FruitieX> firefox is gobbling 4% of my mem (1gb) ;)
[07:26] <mattyrigby00> firefox is using 54mb of mine , beryl and java vm is using the most for me
[07:26] <LukeEkblad> good morning :)
[07:26] <arooni> well i'm running two instances of firefox + chatzilla (runs on firefox)
[07:26] <stefg> arooni: system-admin menu (if you bother to look at your menus :-) )
[07:26] <Anthology> i am attempting to edit my fstab file to automount my second internal harddrive, all the guides i have read do not seem to mimic my fstab file. a copy is located at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29014/
[07:27] <Nyle>              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

[07:27] <Nyle> oops
[07:27] <ehzon1> !fuse
[07:27] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:27] <mattyrigby00> ive found firefox doesnt clear old pages out of the memory
[07:27] <Drk_Guy> Anthology, is it a NTFS drive?
[07:27] <danta> LukeEkblad: it's 7:30 PM over here
[07:27] <LukeEkblad> Oh
[07:27] <oliverp> In freebsd there is a util called pkg-cutleaves, that tracks down those packages in "top" of the dependency hierarchy. Is there an equivalent tool in ubuntu?
[07:27] <LukeEkblad> Good Night =D
[07:27] <arooni> stefg: firefox-bin is on thte top
[07:27] <Anthology> Drk_Guy, i have formated it to ext3
[07:27] <oliverp> I mean in the bottom, sorry
[07:27] <oliverp> or something
[07:28] <stefg> arooni: sort by cpu usage
[07:28] <danta> the same to you
[07:28] <Drk_Guy> If it were NTFS, i could help you
[07:28] <arooni> stefg: i am ;p
[07:28] <Anthology> :/
[07:28] <LukeEkblad> FIREFOX ROCKS!!  ;)
[07:28] <Anthology> thanks anyway
[07:29] <stefg> arooni: try a fresh firefox profile.... if firefox goes crazy it's usually some extension
[07:30] <kyle__> My sound doesn't work - can anyone point me in the direction of where I might find a solution to this?
[07:30] <stefg> !sound
[07:30] <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

[07:30] <Anlar> I got to get that /ignore with regexp to block taht bot spam working.. :/
[07:31] <bsdunix> i have mount error warning dialogue for my dvdrw drive with dvd-rw loaded; mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[07:31] <bsdunix> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[07:31] <arooni> stefg: so you think i have enoguh power to run apps like eclipse, firefox, xmms, beryl, chatzilla, shoutcast all at once?  without more ram/power?
[07:31] <bsdunix> device is run via devfs? no entry in /etc/fstab
[07:31] <kyle__> thank you stef!
[07:32] <stefg> arooni: i'd be carful with beryl... might well be the source of your trouble. the rest (apart from eclipse) is peanuts
[07:32] <bsdunix> mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 <this was working fine until recently
[07:32] <arooni> i love my beryl
[07:32] <arooni> :(
[07:32] <herbalise> hi i just run update manager to upgrade my system to 7.04, my system halted on proftpd and i had to reboot.  Now my hole system i unalbe to boot.  Can i rollback? Or use other method to continue upgrade?
[07:32] <dredhammer> hello everytime i login the  gnome-wm freezes for a few minutes then starts up any idea how to fix this?
[07:32] <LukeEkblad> Well, I got to go to brekfast for my moms birthday at a nice resterant, so bye bye guys :)
[07:32] <arooni> its what makes linux fun
[07:33] <codecaine> is there a way to add files to gnome menu without having to make a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications?
[07:33] <bsdunix> have fun LukeEkblad
[07:33] <tomce> hi, is there a possibility to print a photo, devided on many pages, so that i later can put the pages together to have a big poster?
[07:33] <ilf> stefg: maybe another way besides cd or usb?
[07:33] <LukeEkblad> bsdunix:   OK!  Bye
[07:34] <bsdunix> LukeEkblad: by the way; that's "resturaunt"
[07:34] <sdouble> anyone recommend a decent gui ftp client
[07:34] <tomce> sdouble: gftp?
[07:34] <codecaine> do you need dcopserver running to run kde programs in ubuntu as a regular user?
[07:34] <sdouble> I run kde
[07:34] <milllmannn> what is httpd? Do i need to install that if i am using apache?
[07:35] <sdouble> and I'm not a fan of kftpgrabber
[07:35] <stefg> ilf: see !install to learn about ways to install from the net. but if install-kernel already makes trouble... maybe see !boot if different boot-options change something
[07:35] <bsdunix> mount issues here! suddenly, out of nowhere, my dvd drive w/ a dvd-rw disk in it is read-only!
[07:35] <riddlebox> what would cause my system to play an avi file real choppy, but I can play dvds, and everything else fine?
[07:35] <tomce> sdouble: maybe kftpgrabber - but i haven't used it
[07:35] <stefg> bsdunix: dmesg has a comment on that?
[07:35] <ilf> !install
[07:35] <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
[07:36] <sdouble> I've been using it.  It makes me cry.  Very slow.
[07:36] <crescent_> kismet, I burned at 40x but the crc error still is there
[07:36] <crescent_> my old cdrom is 48x
[07:37] <stefg> crescent_: el cheapo CD-R media are usually unreliable about 16x
[07:37] <mattyrigby00> try burning at 1X and see if it still happens
[07:38] <bsdunix> stefg where is it okay for me to flood my dmesg. (you gotta see this!)
[07:38] <stefg> bsdunix: no... see /topic for !psatebin
[07:38] <stefg> !paste | bsdunix
[07:38] <ubotu> bsdunix: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:39] <crescent_> stefg
[07:39] <codecaine> how you refresh you desktop in gnome?
[07:40] <crescent_> stefg: the two I wasted were maxell
[07:40] <naes> restart x is ctrl alt backspace i learned the other day, i don't know if thats wut ur looking for
[07:40] <stefg> crescent_: ok... but i don't trust burning speeds above 16x, maybe 24x... drives maybe flaky, too
[07:40] <PurpZeY> codecaine: as naes says...ctrl+alt+bksp will restart x
[07:40] <codecaine> nevermind figured out F5 :p
[07:41] <switchcat> crescent - are you sure the original data file is intact?
[07:41] <codecaine> didn't need to restart the x just need to refresh the desktop
[07:41] <crescent_> switchcat, you mean md5sum ? hmmm
[07:41] <codecaine> Thanks though PurpZey
[07:41] <crescent_> switchcat, this can really be a problem I did not think on
[07:42] <naes> anyone wanna help me with burning an iso that doesn't seem to be werkin?(toonoobtoknowwhy)
[07:42] <bsdunix> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29018/ is my mess of a dmesg. looks awful chatty and seems to be suffering from much
[07:42] <PurpZeY> !verify | naes

[07:44] <stefg> bsdunix: it's not /that/ messy.. can you interpret it yourself?  looks like the medium is flaky
[07:44] <Thang> hi
[07:45] <herbalise> how can i recover from a failed upgrade?
[07:45] <Thang> I have a problem with my graphic card
[07:45] <Thang> can you help me plz
[07:45] <herbalise> thang just ask question
[07:45] <stefg> bsdunix: look at the /dev/sr0 related errors.... this doesn't look like an UDF filesysem
[07:45] <iShock> How can I erase a disc totally?
[07:46] <bsdunix> stefg yes, i can interpret fine. my issue is failures to mount media manually.
[07:46] <bsdunix> stefg: thanks... will do
[07:46] <PurpZeY> iShock: use gparted
[07:46] <stefg> bsdunix: if the filesystem on the disk collapsed, there's no mounting
[07:46] <iShock> PurpZeY: To erase a music CD?
[07:46] <crescent_> I have never need md5sum before does it take long?
[07:47] <PurpZeY> iShock: Oh, sorry I thought you meant an HD...my mistake
[07:47] <Thang> I have a laptop which is running Ubuntu 7.04. I use ATI RADEON X300

[07:48] <iShock> How can I erase a music CD totally?
[07:48] <danta> iShock: a rewritable?
[07:48] <crescent_> switchcat, does md5sum take too much time
[07:49] <skollie> ishock: if not a cd-rw, cannot be done
[07:49] <switchcat> crescent - well, it takes less time to do that than to repeatedly try to burn/use a cd that has errors
[07:49] <aLeSD> hi all
[07:49] <Wikkedfin^> is there an xchat sysinfo info script that use to come with ubuntu like back 6.06 version
[07:49] <stefg> iShock: put on the floor and roll over it a couple of times with teh wheels of your chair :-) (my favourite way of accidently destroying CDs that fell down)
[07:50] <crescent_> switchcat, that is obvious but the iso file is on a remote file-sharing pool that is why I asked
[07:50] <iShock> It is a RW
[07:50] <iShock> I believe
[07:50] <j_ack> iShock,      wodim blank=all eject     this is for cdrw
[07:50] <aLeSD> I have a problem with latex: it told me that it can't find a file called fancyhdr.sty ... someone could help me ?
[07:50] <iShock> It's a CD-R..Is that rewriteable?
[07:51] <danta> no
[07:51] <rsl> anyone here running deluge?
[07:51] <stefg> !find fancyhdr.sty
[07:51] <j_ack> iShock, no
[07:51] <skollie> ishock: nope. you're out of luck
[07:51] <crescent_> ale
[07:51] <switchcat> crescent - how 'remote'?  perhaps there is an error that occurs when the transfer happens to write it locally? there can be errors all along the way.
[07:51] <ubotu> File fancyhdr.sty found in python2.4-dev, python2.5-dev, tetex-extra, tetex-src, texlive-latex-base (and 1 others)
[07:51] <ApocalypticOni> why is it that my windows drive appears read-only and protected from within ubuntu, and is there a way i can fix it?
[07:51] <milllmannn> anyone here use vmware?
[07:51] <apfel> Is there a way (command, program, shortcut, ...) to switch between two resolutions in X?
[07:51] <stefg> aLeSD: got that?
[07:51] <aLeSD> stefg: what ?
[07:52] <stefg> aLeSD: see ubotus search result above
[07:52] <aLeSD> ok thanks
[07:52] <crescent_> switchcat, I used a windows machine on the department network to download the iso image, and burned it there twice so to share files in the netwotrk it is a file-pool
[07:52] <naes> ubotu those readings seem more complicated than i can handle on my own, and wen i use $ md5sum ubuntu-6.06.1-server-i386.iso wen in the directory it says no such file or directory..?
[07:53] <switchcat> apfel - I _think_ cntrl-alt + might do it, but dont quote me on that.
[07:53] <aLeSD> stefg: how to find a file in all the repository ?
[07:53] <stefg> aLeSD: probably tetx-extra is waht you need
[07:53] <danta> ApocalypticOni you can always access it as root, and for other users, you can mount it with other mounting parameters
[07:53] <ApocalypticOni> danta: yay, thanks
[07:54] <crescent_> switchcat, now on my debian where I am now, I try to md5sum a remote big file and obviously it will take more time
[07:54] <danta> ApocalypticOni: if you have windows on NTFS, then you need fuse to write to the partition
[07:54] <switchcat> crescent well if the iso image is on the computer you burned it on, and will burn it on again, do the md5sum wherever that is.  if there is some sort of remote NAS and the file does not sit on the same computer it's going to be burned on, then there is an additional possibilities for errors to be introduced
[07:54] <apfel> switchcat: it should do so according to the documentation but it unfortunately doesn't in my case...
[07:55] <crescent_> swithcat, I see
[07:55] <switchcat> apfel - are you using the + sign on the numeric keyboard or on the regular part of the keyboard?

[07:56] <danta> ApocalypticOni: here is a manual for read and write support for NTFS http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[07:56] <Max01> hey ive just installed ubuntu and ive got to say im impressed! i have a few questions tho. Will my Ipod just plug in and work? and which torrnet app is best?
[07:56] <stefg> !faq | Max01
[07:56] <ubotu> Max01: A list of common questions and answers about Ubuntu: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions - Official documentation: http://help.ubuntu.com - IRC FAQ: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[07:56] <tailsfan> Tried it already, I said "k3b cannot copy this disc because it can't handle mutiple tracks"
[07:56] <danta> Max01: your IPOD will be mounted as external disk drive
[07:57] <apfel> switchcat: regular part (laptop keyboard)
[07:57] <naes> max you can use gtkpod to use your ipod
[07:57] <Anlar> Max01: rhythmbox will notice your ipod. if you want better application, get banshee installed. and azureus is aok for torrents
[07:57] <danta> Max01: there is no best torrent program, depends on your needs, do you want a GUI or just the console
[07:57] <Max01> thanks guys :) ill try them all out
[07:58] <Max01> gui as its for a desktop
[07:58] <switchcat> apfel - hmmm well the problem there _might be_ (this is a wild guess) is that on a regular and/or laptop keyboard, the + sign shares a key with another.. and so you have to shift to get the + sign.  for some reason whenever I do cntrl alt + I always use the numeric keypad where the + sign is on a key all its own.
[07:58] <Max01> ive use rtorrent before
[07:58] <danta> rtorrent is a cool minimalistic torrent program
[07:59] <ooda> I luv linux
[07:59] <Max01> yeah maybe ill use that so i can ssh into my box from home
[07:59] <Max01> from work even*
[08:00] <bsdunix> seems cdrecord cannot blank OR format dvd-rw media
[08:00] <Pie-rat1> if i installed ubuntu on an 80gb external drive, could i use it on different boxes? does it configure itself for the first box it runs on or can i use the external hard drive across my laptop, desktop, and multiple computers at work?
[08:00] <bsdunix> i have dvd-rw tools
[08:00] <bsdunix> mystery
[08:00] <Cem_UNAL> http://imaj.at/18991 ???
[08:00] <danta> Max01: you'll have to use it with screen then,  otherwise you'll close rtorrent when you close your ssh client
[08:00] <Max01> yeah ive used that as well for irssi :)
[08:01] <apfel> switchcat: thanks for your help. I hope I'll find another solution.
[08:01] <Max01> just thought id try out a desktop distro
[08:01] <bsdunix> Pie-rat1 i guess generic kernel and a boot floppy pointing to this drive may work
[08:02] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: well, i'd set the computer to boot from the drive, obviously.
[08:02] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: getting it to boot is not the issue. what about drivers?
[08:02] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: like proprietary drivers for wireless stuff?
[08:03] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: guess the only way to find out for sure is buy the driver
[08:03] <RainCT> Hi
[08:03] <Pie-rat1> drive*
[08:03] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: $100, though.
[08:03] <bsdunix> Pie-rat1 assuming generic kerrnel has MOST of what most people will need, you then manually config in the specific kernel modules needed for any bastard hardware such as this wifi card you mention
[08:03] <Cem_UNAL> can somebody help me there is a bug's screenshot here http://imaj.at/18991
[08:03] <Thang> what is the default password of root account plz
[08:04] <Pie-rat1> bsdunix: restricted device manager has worked great for every single wifi card i've found so far.
[08:04] <teratoma> Thang: there isnt one.  you can set it with "sudo passwd root"
[08:04] <Thang> ok thanks
[08:04] <bsdunix> maybe get a different card, it would be cheaper, atheros chipsets give raw data as captured
[08:04] <RainCT> how can I convert a .fla to ogg, beside with ffmpeg2theora? i've tried many times with it, but on the resulting ogg sound is slower than video :s
[08:04] <freebse> Thang: no password is set, but you should change that in my point of view
[08:05] <freebse> Thang: also I would set a password for root, and not sudo
[08:05] <skollie> !root | Thang
[08:05] <Flannel> freebse, Thang : No.  He shouldn't.
[08:05] <ubotu> Thang: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:05] <teratoma> freebse: that command line will set a password for rot
[08:05] <PurpZeY> freebse: root is not supported in this channel
[08:06] <bsdunix> Pie-rat1 note how ndis drivers do not function with kismet.
[08:06] <Flannel> Thang: Ubuntu uses sudo instead of the root account, the root account is locked.  using sudo is more flexible than using root.
[08:06] <teratoma> is there a #ubuntu-that-supports-root channel?
[08:06] <Thang> because i am trying to fix my screen resolution :(
[08:06] <Thang> my laptop screen is widescreen
[08:06] <freebse> PurpZey: my point of view, but I don't want to start this again :) sorry, let's keep it that way
[08:06] <DjViper> teratoma: huh?
[08:06] <Thang> but I cannot change it to 1280x800
[08:06] <PurpZeY> teratoma: No, b/c ubuntu is built to function without it.
[08:06] <_crescent> In the hashes list of ubuntu cd iso images, there are no listing for xubuntu 7.04, can someone comment on this
[08:07] <Flannel> freebse: please don't recommend people enable their root account here.  If you want to use it yourself that fine, but we ask you stick to Ubuntu canon in this channel.  Thanks
[08:07] <PurpZeY> freebse: Again, agreed on not starting...problem is people get root, then they come back with far WORSE problems....Not you perhaps, but other people.
[08:07] <Anlar> Thang: intel based graphics adapter? "sudo apt-get install 915resolution" and reboot
[08:07] <Thang> ATI
[08:07] <PurpZeY> Anlar: He has an ATI I believe
[08:07] <Anlar> pfft @ ati
[08:07] <ApocalypticOni> ok, so ive unmounted one of my drives that was read-only and protected and all that. how do i remount it so that its rewritable?
[08:07] <Thang> ATI RADEON X300
[08:08] <freebse> PurpZey, teratoma : well you could try deb*** :) anyway if you don't know exactly how to set this up, you should leave it like this, depends on what you use your system for anyways
[08:08] <bsdunix> ATI is problematic, for example; compiz/beryl support
[08:08] <Thang> :(
[08:08] <utab> the hash for xubuntu 7.04 is not listed in the hashes list, can someone comment on this for me
[08:08] <newuser00> i've tried Thunar in Ubuntu and it is faster than Nautilus, is there a way to change the default file manager?
[08:08] <bsdunix> good to always stick to nvidia
[08:08] <s\a\i\n\t> Yeah, I got ATI and beryl just plain out does'nt work.
[08:08] <Flannel> utab: you mean an MD5?  Which CD? desktop or alternate?
[08:09] <Thang> you mean that ATI doesn't work with Ubuntu?
[08:09] <bsdunix> ATI does work with xorg
[08:09] <utab> Flannel, yep, alternate,
[08:09] <Flannel> utab: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/MD5SUMS
[08:09] <newuser00> Thang: i have an ATI ax600 working perfectly with ubuntu
[08:09] <utab> Flannel, ubuntu kubuntu and edubuntu are listed
[08:09] <danta> does anybody know some good music streaming servers? I tried gnump3d but it has problems with a lot filenames
[08:09] <utab> Flannel I will see that
[08:09] <Thang> it is really sucks if my X300 cannot work :(
[08:10] <bsdunix> Thang: it will. don't worry
[08:10] <Thang> do you know how to make my correct resolution work?
[08:10] <bsdunix> Thang: just remember for future video card purchases; nvidia supports us in the open source communtity a little better
[08:11] <bruenig> sorts us in the linux community
[08:11] <freebse> bsdunix: right, ATI is :(#&
[08:11] <bruenig> not really much on open source
[08:11] <danta> ATI is working on it
[08:11] <Thang> man, it is built-in when I bought my laptop
[08:11] <ApocalypticOni> ok, so ive unmounted one of my drives that was read-only and protected and all that. how do i remount it so that its rewritable?
[08:11] <Holty101> Does anyone know how to install the mana world on ubuntu as i am new to linux and ubuntu any help would be apriciated
[08:11] <PurpZeY> thang: it can work, it's just finnicky to get working
[08:11] <Anlar> bsdunix: ati once fixed one driver that failed entirely on linux thanks to my bug report.. and pretty nicely. they are not all that bad
[08:11] <freebse> Nvidia got closed drivers as well, but ATIs are worse
[08:11] <Thang> Purpzey: can you help me
[08:11] <bruenig> Anlar, thanks to your bug report, right
[08:11] <teratoma> what is the gnome equivalent of kflickr ?
[08:12] <teratoma> Thang: did you try installing 915resolution ?
[08:12] <ApocalypticOni> ok, so ive unmounted one of my drives that was read-only and protected and all that. how do i remount it so that its rewritable?
[08:12] <PurpZeY> teratoma: That is for intel chipsets.
[08:12] <Thang> yes
[08:12] <bsdunix> Anlar; that's good to hear. just go check out how nvidia so widely recognizes even the existance of freebsd! < how rare
[08:12] <Anlar> bruenig: it was a very rare card with mixed up ramdac recognition in the drivers.. they actually reacted to the email
[08:12] <Thang> but 915 is for Intel only
[08:12] <PurpZeY> Thang: I recommend asking in #ubuntu-effects, some of the guys over there really know their stuff with videocards.
[08:12] <PurpZeY> Thang: Someone here might help, but those guys are really good with that stuff.
[08:12] <Thang> ok thanks :)
[08:12] <Flannel> Thang: have you tried following this guide? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:13] <PurpZeY> Thang: Also, have you searched the forums ?
[08:13] <danta> does anybody use a good music streaming server? I tried gnump3d but has problems with certain filenames
[08:13] <Ayabara> how do I burn a dvd-rw in ubuntu?
[08:13] <preaction> !burn | Ayabara
[08:13] <ubotu> Ayabara: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[08:14] <bsdunix> hey, compiz/beryl aint all that, anyway; my experience is lots of freezes and broken apps.
[08:15] <Ayabara> preaction, thanks.
[08:15] <torhu> what's the ubuntu default password (7.04)?
[08:15] <dsuch> Hi
[08:15] <fivetwentysix> My Azureus client is crashing for no apprarent reason while downloads are running...
[08:15] <bsdunix> check out how azureus breaks after you run beryl
[08:15] <preaction> torhu: what default password/
[08:15] <dsuch> kbrooks: mind if I PM you?
[08:15] <Flannel> torhu: there is none.  The root account is locked.  Use sudo instead
[08:15] <torhu> user ubuntu?
[08:15] <bsdunix> or sudo su
[08:15] <utab> switchcat, hi I am on a different machine with a different name with the md5sum problem 5 minutes ago,
[08:15] <kbrooks> dsuch, why?
[08:15] <fivetwentysix> And everytime I start it up again it crashes instantly until i delete my .azureus directory contents
[08:15] <utab> switchcat, my md5sum checks are ok,
[08:15] <preaction> torhu: on the live cd?
[08:15] <bsdunix> fivetwentysix; good tip
[08:16] <torhu> just trying to login to a vmware image I downloaded
[08:16] <dsuch> kbrooks: hm, that's why I want to PM you :)
[08:16] <torhu> preaction: yes
[08:16] <kbrooks> dsuch, huh? uh, ok pm away.....
[08:16] <Flannel> torhu: ah.  You'll have to ask whomever made the vmware image.  There is no default password, on default ubuntu.
[08:16] <switchcat> utab - then I would do what they suggested, try to burn at a much slower rate.
[08:16] <preaction> torhu: there is no password on the live cd, everything just works without it.
[08:16] <utab> switchcat, may be this will be a stupid question but what is the difference between alternate and desktop iso images
[08:16] <oim> join ubuntu-fr
[08:16] <ApocalypticOni> ok, so ive unmounted one of my drives that was read-only and protected and all that. how do i remount it so that its rewritable?
[08:16] <torhu> oh fuck, I've been trying to get ubuntu to work in vmware for 4 hours :(
[08:17] <oim> join #ubuntu-fr
[08:17] <utab> switchcat, speed 8X the lowest I can use
[08:17] <ompaul> !language
[08:17] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:17] <bsdunix> oim try /join
[08:17] <torhu> I officially hate linux
[08:17] <torhu> sorry about that
[08:17] <switchcat> utab - I think that the bot can answe this one.  they have different stuff they install/have on them
[08:17] <Anlar> fivetwentysix: which version did you install of azureus? there are two.. if it says "native", it is GNU crap, delete it and re-install the other one.. it will wokr
[08:17] <Flannel> utab: Desktop is a liveCD with an intsaller through the liveCD, alternate is just a textmode installer, no liveCD, but it does contain additional packages you can install later (and you can upgrade with it)
[08:17] <ompaul> torhu, and think about it the problem is your not using linux but vmware
[08:18] <michel> help: i install edubuntu 7.04 on a notebook asus amd turion 64, but in the phase ltsp of the installation i made a mistake, hasboy the same problem? i must be a problem with 64 bits becaue i install edubuntu on many 32 bit machine without problem
[08:18] <bsdunix> torhu; linux can be an opportunity to learn. sometimes little more than that
[08:18] <torhu> I think i got the image from ubuntu.com
[08:18] <utab> Flannel, thx for the info, then the only way to follow is to try to burn at the lowest and see what happens
[08:18] <fivetwentysix> Anlar I installed it off the synaptic package manager
[08:19] <fivetwentysix> It doesn't say Native.
[08:19] <Flannel> torhu: ubuntu.com doesn't have vmware images... as far as I know.  Do you have a link?
[08:19] <Anlar> fivetwentysix: okay then it's hard to say why it crahses :P
[08:19] <torhu> doesn't seem to be official, I had to use google to find it
[08:19] <fivetwentysix> It doesn't even give a log file
[08:19] <Flannel> torhu: oh, I misspoke.  http://isv-image.ubuntu.com/vmware/  Uh, I think it should be the same, user 'ubuntu, pass none.
[08:19] <utab> Flannel, this is the first time I have ever had problems with the burning speed.
[08:19] <torhu> yes, but it doesn't accept that
[08:20] <stephane> hi, is there a french help room for ubuntu please ?
[08:20] <PurpZeY> !fr
[08:20] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:20] <MRiGnS> !fr > stephane
[08:20] <fivetwentysix> I was told my distro was broken.
[08:20] <stephane> thanks ! ;)
[08:20] <fivetwentysix> How can I check if my distro is broken?
[08:20] <MRiGnS> fiveiron, did it stop working?
[08:20] <PurpZeY> fivetwentysix: What do you mean by that?
[08:20] <bsdunix> can someone please check out http://quixote.homelinux.org/ for me? i wanna see if it even works
[08:20] <Lok1> apt-get seg faults. How can I re-install it?
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> i dunno
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> that's what i was told
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> They said my distro build was broken
[08:21] <PurpZeY> fivetwentysix: What problem are you having?
[08:21] <Megaqwerty> Lok1: sudo aptitude reinstall apt-get
[08:21] <PurpZeY> Who is they?
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> Azureus is crashing for no apparent reasons
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> And the crashes appear random
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> And i can't start azureus till i delete the .azureus directory after a crash
[08:21] <PurpZeY> fivetwentysix: Did you download azureus from the repos?
[08:21] <Lok1> thanks Megaqwerty, I'll give it a go
[08:21] <fivetwentysix> Yes.
[08:21] <Flannel> utab: is there a readme or anything in the zip file?
[08:21] <bsdunix> fivetwentysix; azureus crashes on startup everytime for me. you're lucky!
[08:21] <titun> what fonts are used in my ubuntu, so that they look different than xp
[08:21] <Megaqwerty> Lok1: you're welcome.
[08:21] <PurpZeY> fivetwentysix: It is notoriously unstable. Get it from sourceforge
[08:22] <freebse> bsdunix: loads for ever then timeout
[08:22] <PurpZeY> !font | titun
[08:22] <MRiGnS> titun, sans most probably
[08:22] <ubotu> titun: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[08:22] <utab> Flannel, I did not get which file ??
[08:22] <Lok1> aptitude also seg faults :(
[08:22] <Flannel> titun: the Bitstream family (bitstream vera, etc)
[08:22] <stefg> bsdunix: #ubuntu-offtopic for such requests, please. this channel scrolls fast enough. And your link resolves, but dosen't work
[08:22] <titun> humm....
[08:22] <Megaqwerty> Lok1: try using synaptic then
[08:22] <bsdunix> freebse; you refer to my http server?
[08:22] <newuser00> i have tried Thunar in Ubuntu and it is faster than Nautilus, is there a way to change the default file manager?
[08:22] <fivetwentysix> PurpZeY could it be my JRE ?
[08:22] <Flannel> utab: check in the zip file, there may be a readme or some instructions.
[08:22] <bsdunix> stefg thanks
[08:22] <freebse> bsdunix: exactly
[08:23] <Megaqwerty> Lok1: you can also download apt-get from packages.ubuntu.com and install the .deb with sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[08:23] <utab> Flannel, what do you mean by zip, I still did not get
[08:23] <PurpZeY> fivetwentysix: It could but, I am telling you...The version in the repos is known to be unstable. Get Azereus from sourceforge and that should alleviate the issue
[08:23] <Max00> hi ive just put a usb flash pen into my ubuntu machine, how can i safely remove it without damagin the hardware like in windows
[08:23] <fivetwentysix> Alright then
[08:23] <utab> Flannel, I am struggling with cd iso images, I have nothing to do with zip
[08:23] <Flannel> utab: when you downloaded the vmware image, you downloaded a zip file.
[08:24] <gerro> my cd burner isn't recognized what do I do?
[08:24] <Flannel> utab: oh.  Hmmm, sorry, I mustve confused you for... yeah.  Mhmm, ignore me ;)
[08:24] <Lok1> thanks Megaqwerty, i was goung to ask if that would be an option, I have looked on packages.ubuntu.com but only seen source packages, I'll have another look
[08:24] <utab> Flannel, you confused me I guess vmware
[08:24] <stefg> Max00: right-click, choose eject
[08:24] <utab> Flannel, np
[08:24] <Flannel> torhu: Is there a README file in the zip you downloaded?
[08:25] <bsdunix> gerro; what part of your system does not "recognise" your cdrom device?
[08:25] <torhu> Flannel: omg, the password was actually in the readme.  Imageine that
[08:25] <torhu> heh
[08:25] <torhu> that's just too good to be true
[08:25] <utab> Flannel, you found the target :P
[08:25] <gerro> bsdunix: I have 2 cd drive thingies and lshw reports only one
[08:25] <Flannel> utab: You can try installing through other methods, there are a few that don't require CDs, or try using the minimal CD, which should get around the issues with bad burns.
[08:26] <teratoma> how can i edit the titles and descriptions of a ton of photos hosted on flickr, in gnome or kde ?
[08:26] <gerro> flannel: also usb install and instlux
[08:26] <Flannel> utab:  see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for installation methods  and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD for the minimal CD
[08:26] <lost_angle> hi
[08:26] <bsdunix> gerro; do you see device mentioned anywhere in dmesg | less?
[08:26] <MORf> hello
[08:27] <Harna> hi, how i can connect with hotspot in mcdonald?
[08:27] <MORf> Need someone from Russia)
[08:27] <utab> Flannel, do you think burning at a lower speed can help, thanks for the links and one more, crc error is exactly due to cds or not ?
[08:27] <lost_angle> I have speedtouch 330 usb ..........Is it support  in ubuntu system?
[08:27] <stefg> !ru | MORf
[08:27] <ubotu> MORf:    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[08:27] <MORf> ty
[08:27] <MORf> very much
[08:27] <gerro> bsdunix: checking
[08:27] <bsdunix> Harna; try dhclient nicname
[08:28] <homerj> <Ivan Drago> I must break you
[08:28] <Harna> i must add i have wifi card
[08:28] <Harna> in my laptop
[08:28] <homerj> <Ivan Drago> He is made of IRON!
[08:28] <bsdunix> Harna; also ifconfig has scan
[08:28] <utab> Flannel, all the story started with crc error System halted message
[08:28] <Harna> bsdunix: can you say me more about that?
[08:28] <dropety> i'm still having network problems. it seems ping is routing to the lo device. any suggestions?
[08:28] <Flannel> utab: Uh, I don't think I've seen a CRC error with an ISO before.  Does sound like a burn issue though. Did you check the CD for defects?
[08:29] <bsdunix> Harna; you have this wifi card working already elsewhere?
[08:29] <Flannel> utab: actually, did you verify the MD5? or, yeah, you did.
[08:29] <stefg> !verify
[08:29] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[08:29] <utab> Flannel, yes also if I chose that option I got the crc
[08:29] <bsdunix> Harna; try man ifconfig - truely helpful
[08:29] <Harna> i don't know because i newer try
[08:29] <homerj> blah
[08:29] <homerj> info ifconfig
[08:30] <homerj> info ftw
[08:30] <gerro> bsdunix: it repeatedly says device not ready: <6> Current: sense key: Not Ready Additional sense: Medium not present end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 4 it then repeats but section 0 then spams several times
[08:30] <DjViper> homerj: need help?
[08:30] <switchcat> Harna - have you connected with other hotspots before?  I believe most of mcdonalds hotspots are pay/subscription models.. once you take care of what you need to do with that, I would assume it's the same as connecting with any other hotspot.
[08:30] <utab> Flannel, the only option seems to burn maybe the minimal cd and try again
[08:30] <bsdunix> Harna: okay. first see ndiswrapper and follow a good ubuntu wifi config tutorial
[08:31] <c4__> #wine
[08:31] <Fezzler> My mouse seems to be very unpredictable, especially during dragging.  Jumps to corners.  Any ideas?
[08:31] <Harna> ok, what next?
[08:31] <stefg> c4__: /j #winehq
[08:31] <PurpZeY> Fezzler: what kind of mouse?
[08:31] <bsdunix> switchcat; i know mcdonalds hotspots work open and free with a nintendo ds
[08:31] <Fezzler> Optical mouse
[08:31] <gerro> bsdunix: also before that it says Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 0 then it goes all way through block 7
[08:32] <Adriano> Fezzler: but PS/2, USB?
[08:32] <Fezzler> It had been working fine
[08:32] <Fezzler> PS2
[08:32] <switchcat> bsdunix - my local mcdonalds hotspot isnt free, and I've checked others in the city. no go. :(
[08:32] <Fezzler> Mostly notice it in Inkscape
[08:32] <switchcat> the nintendo thing is probably a cross-promotional thing between companies I would guess.
[08:32] <gerro> bsdunix: before that there is ppdev0: registered pardevice and ppdev0: unregistered pardevice repeated
[08:32] <Hitomaro> so who was helping me out earlier?
[08:33] <Fezzler> I'll be moving an object and wham, it jumps to nowhere land.  Or the same when resizing something
[08:33] <Alex> Hey guys. I'm using Feisty and ATi. I'm trying to use dual-headed. I've done aticonfig --initial=dual-head, but I want it to be treated as one screen, in the same way that xinerama (I think) does. I've had a google, but failed. Anyone able to offer any support?
[08:33] <Anlar> Alex: then you should just make xinerama config?
[08:34] <bsdunix> gerro; before you talk any more about your wifi config... find and follow a good ubuntu wifi tutorial, you will have needed to config a ndis driver and stuff
[08:34] <Alex> Anlar: I thought xinerama was exclusive to Nvidia cards?
[08:34] <Fezzler> Any ideas Alex?
[08:34] <Alex> I'm such a tool. THanks Anlar :)
[08:34] <Anlar> Alex: xinerama is X specific...
[08:34] <Adriano> Fezzler: do you have enough RAM? I notice my mouse getting erratic when I'm pushing RAM
[08:34] <Fezzler> 256med
[08:34] <Fezzler> meg
[08:34] <gerro> bsdunix: wtf I'm talking about my cd burner not wifi, I got that going great
[08:35] <Adriano> Fezzler: "enough" means "enough to work comfortably on inkscape and such"
[08:35] <bsdunix> gerro ... ha ha. maybe i'm hung-over this morning
[08:35] <bsdunix> afternoon already; see?
[08:35] <gerro> bsdunix: trying to get wifi from a cd burner, and some call me a noob :/
[08:35] <switchcat> 17% more and hopefully I'll have a working system
[08:36] <martin-Mexico> hey, how do i join a channel
[08:36] <martin-Mexico> ?
[08:36] <Fezzler> Adriano: It is almost like the pointer gets sucked to the corners when I start moving
[08:36] <Adriano> martin-Mexico: /join #channel
[08:36] <ApocalypticOni> ok, so ive unmounted one of my drives that was read-only and protected and all that. how do i remount it so that its rewritable?
[08:36] <skollie> martin-mexico: how di you join this one?
[08:36] <bsdunix> gerro; i got a massive tumeroid going here. got you mixed up with someone else's problem. so sorry
[08:36] <martin-Mexico> i just started the program
[08:36] <Adriano> Fezzler: have you tried to do it on other programs?
[08:37] <martin-Mexico> i have never used a chat client
[08:37] <Adriano> or better yet: have you tried with a different mouse?
[08:37] <tingle> hi, is there a way to change i can change the ports Gnome BitTorrent Downloader uses to something else? i cant find a config anywhere :(
[08:37] <Fezzler> Well, I notice even here in Gaim as I attempt to use menus.  But more noticable in Inkscape
[08:38] <Adriano> Fezzler: or better yet: have you tried with a different mouse?
[08:38] <steve999> Hi all im a newbie with linux and ubuntu (basically I know nothing) - I am trying to get the sound to work on my laptop.. I have been reading the support page and it says I need to download and install a driver called alsa.. I have done that and extracted it into a folder on my hardrive, but does anyone know how to actually install it, Im not used to this yet
[08:38] <gerro> bsdunix: nah man its cool, I just can't wait for you post this wifi from cd burner guide on the forums lol :D
[08:38] <switchcat> 6%...
[08:38] <jesspher> hi
[08:38] <sebas_> is it possible to launch a program from via ssh? I want that program to run in the host machine, not mine
[08:38] <Fezzler> Only mouse I have
[08:38] <jesspher> i have ubuntu 5. something and i want to update, how do i update
[08:38] <Flannel> sebas_: That's what ssh is for
[08:38] <daan> sebas_: just run it?
[08:38] <stefg> tingle: gnome bt is /very/ basic and limited.... consider deluge (or azureus if you have ram and cpu-cycles to spare)
[08:38] <sebas_> -from
[08:39] <skollie> steve999: sudo apt-get install alsa
[08:39] <Flannel> jesspher: 5.10?
[08:39] <stefg> !deluge | tingle
[08:39] <ubotu> tingle: deluge is a new Bittorrent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured client to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce - See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information or http://download.deluge-torrent.org/stable/ubuntu/feisty/ for downloading.
[08:39] <jesspher> yeah
[08:39] <Flannel> !upgrade | jesspher
[08:39] <ubotu> jesspher: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:39] <saturnus_> salut
[08:39] <sebas_> daan, yes, I forgot to launch a program and I need to launch it from here. I can connect via ssh
[08:39] <gerro> bsdunix: but actually I got one of those wusb54gsc going with belkin .sys files and latest .inf for it then edited custom power settings in udev
[08:39] <bsdunix> gerro; maybe bash.org even...
[08:39] <Flannel> jesspher: you'll upgrade to 6.06 (and from there you can upgrade to 6.10 to 7.04, if you'd like).  If you already have your mind set on 7.04, you'll probably want to just backup/reinstall.  You'll most likely save time/bandwidth that way
[08:39] <daan> sebas_: yes just connect through ssh and execute the program
[08:39] <Flannel> sebas_: which program?
[08:40] <sebas_> Flannel, daan: ktorrent
[08:40] <Fezzler> Is there a way to reload the mouse driver?
[08:40] <jesspher> how do i updtae it?
[08:40] <sebas_> sebas@sebas-desktop:~$ ktorrent
[08:40] <sebas_> ERROR: KUniqueApplication: Can't determine DISPLAY. Aborting.
[08:40] <Flannel> jesspher: Follow the link ubotu gave you.  It's got complete instructions
[08:41] <daan> sebas_: yes but I think it'll quit when you quit the session
[08:41] <ApocalypticOni> unmounted my other drive (that was read-only and protected and all that). how do i remount it so that its editable?
[08:41] <daan> sebas_: ah you aren't logged in
[08:41] <bsdunix> gerro: i would suspect the purchace of a belkin usb wifi thingie to be the act of a masochist
[08:41] <sebas_> daan: yes I am, this pc is sebas@sebas-laptop
[08:41] <steve999> will try that thanks skollie
[08:42] <daan> sebas_: I mean the other pc isn't logged in graphically
[08:42] <steve999> by the way skollie .. what kind of name is that it sounds South African
[08:42] <Holty101> hi guys i need help as a newbie to install a game the mana world from scratch can anyone help me please?
[08:42] <gerro> bsdunix: umm its a linksys actually but I do have a belkin
[08:42] <skollie> steve999: yep

[08:46] <ditoa> i did wonder about did
[08:46] <ditoa> dd
[08:46] <zenmonk> i couldn't find documentation on this on ubuntu wiki

[08:46] <kmcq__> whats the package name for compiz fusion? or is it not availible, i havnt seen it in synaptic
[08:46] <Alex> Argh. I fail. I've got the xinerama thing working, but now I have no 3d acceleration. I'm wanting 3d acceleration on one screen, and not on the other. is that possible? :)
[08:46] <zenmonk> xanne: then what are others, they are logicals of an extended?
[08:47] <ditoa> how can i be sure that dd fully overwrite the file?
[08:47] <Flannel> ditoa: use shred
[08:47] <ditoa> ok
[08:47] <bsdunix> ditoa; use the old norton disk doctor to look at the hex on those sectors
[08:48] <ditoa> cool
[08:48] <xanne> zenmonk: if you have multiple partitions on one drive they will all be considered there own virtual drives but they will only show up as one logical

[08:51] <ditoa> i only actually require a single pass
[08:51] <jesspher> where can i download a iso of the latest ubuntu?
[08:51] <danta> !ubuntu
[08:51] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[08:51] <Flannel> ditoa: you can confiure shred to do only a single pass too, with the -n option (man shred for all the fun options)
[08:51] <ditoa> it is just to prevent the document from being restored using recovery software, not to keep it safe from physical plater inspection
[08:51] <Hitomaro> how do I get to the config page?
[08:51] <bsdunix> BaD_CrC it managed to cp an .iso for me that a wine dvdshrink wouldn't do
[08:52] <legrand1> il y a des francophone ici ? ;)

[08:52] <ditoa> how does ubuntu handle dual monitors?

[08:52] <sebzzz> I'm not sure, what is the right place to make a Gnome feature request?
[08:52] <xanne> ant: that brought up the "volume" mixer..
[08:52] <martin-Mexico> hey, how can i join "irc://irc.dslextreme.com/techguy" ?
[08:52] <danta> ubuntu doesn't handle dual monitors, it's the X server

[08:53] <PirateLeChuck> ubuntu uses xterm shell so why does it bot recognise ll as long list command?
[08:53] <sebzzz> well, I mean on the web
[08:54] <jesspher> i am new to ubuntu, how do i change my resolution to 1400 by 900 cause the only resolution i see on the settings is 1024 by 700
[08:54] <danta> ditoa: if you have an nvidia card, then you have a chance of making dual screen work
[08:54] <bruenig> PirateLeChuck, what
[08:54] <skollie> legrand1: bien sur!
[08:54] <Yoluca> i had a dual boot with windows and ubuntu ... which worked fine since i had to reinstall windows again and now the dual boot menu its gone ... how do i get it back ?
[08:54] <k4p14> ubuntu sux

[08:54] <PirateLeChuck> long list
[08:54] <Yoluca> it doesnt let me select which OS i want to boot into ... any idea ?
[08:54] <BaD_CrC> k4p14: haters need not apply
[08:54] <bruenig> k4p14, the suckiness of ubuntu is to be talked about in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:54] <switchcat> ahhhhh so it's installed lets just hope that now it boots up right
[08:54] <jesspher> please help
[08:54] <bsdunix> Yoluca; oh dear. old proverb; windows first, then linux.
[08:55] <jesspher> how do i change my resolution to 1400 by 900
[08:55] <danta> k4p14, if ubuntu sucks, what the hell are you doing here
[08:55] <bruenig> PirateLeChuck, ll is an alias for ls -al --color
[08:55] <sebzzz> Like, I know about Ubuntu idea pool, but is there such thing for Gnome
[08:55] <bruenig> PirateLeChuck, it is not a real command
[08:55] <sebas_> Yoluca: windows ereases the boot loader
[08:55] <christian_> ubuntu is cool
[08:55] <kmcq__> where can i find the logo file used for ubuntu's cube?
[08:55] <Flannel> sebzzz: probably.  You could ask the gnome people, they're on irc.gnome.org
[08:55] <Yoluca> bsdunix thats how it was ... i only reinstalled the windows ...( on the already partitioned windows system)

[08:55] <PirateLeChuck> bruenig, ah ok, i am used to using a distro where that alias is set as default, cheers, new to ubuntu
[08:55] <PriceChild> !sudo | Thang
[08:55] <ubotu> Thang: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:55] <Yoluca> sebas_ so what can i do now ?
[08:55] <bruenig> PirateLeChuck, you can set it in your .bashrc
[08:56] <skollie> thang: use sudo
[08:56] <xanne> kk thats it I give up on ubuntu
[08:56] <Thang> ok
[08:56] <PirateLeChuck> bruenig, i will set that now yes cheers
[08:56] <xanne> moving on to suse

[08:56] <Yoluca> sebas_ well i can edid the grub files right now if that is what i need to do
[08:56] <bsdunix> Hitomaro vi
[08:57] <Hitomaro> thanks
[08:57] <ditoa> i know it isnt ubuntu specific however does anyone have an x server dual monitor setup guide?
[08:57] <Flannel> Hitomaro: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf (you might want to back it up first)
[08:57] <sebas_> Yoluca, are you using that pc?
[08:57] <Flannel> bsdunix: no reason to recommend vi, nano works fine.
[08:57] <Yoluca> yeah
[08:57] <sebas_> Yoluca, and what os?
[08:57] <bruenig> use ed

[08:57] <ubotu> Package gtk does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:57] <torhu> does anyone know if wubi allows you to access windows partitions?
[08:57] <bruenig> !info gtk+
[08:58] <BaD_CrC> grrr
[08:58] <ubotu> Package gtk+ does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:58] <bruenig> what do they call it then
[08:58] <Yoluca> sebas_  same 500 GB hard 20 its for windows and the rest for ubuntu so i can access the ubuntu files while i`m in windows ...
[08:58] <Hitomaro> how do I back up the /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[08:58] <dissection> Can someone help me install gtk+? I tried installing it but its not working

[08:58] <Stolas> Hi, ive a question about IPtables, i want to allow 1 ip on a port, and al other ip's a deny, does someone know how i must do this?
[08:58] <bruenig> Hitomaro, make a copy of it, cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[08:58] <bsdunix> Flannel; i just recommended it out of force of habit as vi is present on every minimal install throughout the world of *nix and is a skill that is good to acquire, no?
[08:58] <Hitomaro> thanks
[08:58] <sebas_> Yoluca, I'm not sure how to do it, but the grub menu is in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:59] <ditoa> anyone here prefer kubuntu over ubuntu?
[08:59] <Yoluca> i know that bit
[08:59] <Yoluca> :)
[08:59] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, check the log
[08:59] <BaD_CrC> i did
[08:59] <Yoluca> sebas_ yeah thats all i know too :)
[08:59] <BaD_CrC> nothing useful
[08:59] <sebas_> Yoluca, I think that the problem is even before the boot loader, by the time the BIOS chooses which boot loader to use
[08:59] <XiXaQ> Doesn't Ubuntu LAMP server install accept connections to MySQL from other hosts by default? If not, where do I enable that?
[08:59] <danta> Hitomaro: you have to be root to  edit and to back it up
[08:59] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, well that is most certainly an xdvdshrink issue, in fact xdvdshrink isn't even on the repos is it?
[08:59] <Flannel> bsdunix: For most people who need to edit files in the terminal occassionally, nano will work fine
[08:59] <Yoluca> sebas_ i see
[08:59] <Hitomaro> danta..?
[08:59] <BaD_CrC> it's dieing because it can't match something in the file name
[08:59] <dissection> !help gtk+
[08:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help gtk+ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:00] <dissection> :(
[09:00] <bruenig> dissection, play around with apt-cache search
[09:00] <Flannel> XiXaQ: I imagine it's bound to localhost.  /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[09:00] <sebas_> Yoluca, your problem is very common, just google it
[09:00] <BaD_CrC> dissection: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=gtk%2B&btnG=Google+Search
[09:00] <Yoluca> !restore grub
[09:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about restore grub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:00] <dissection> bruenig: I don't know how to use it. I'm afraid I'll mess up Ubuntu. I already installed all kinds of thing that it said it needed and it still doesn't work..
[09:00] <bruenig> !grub | Yoluca
[09:00] <ubotu> Yoluca: 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
[09:01] <Flannel> bruenig, dissection: libgtk2.0-0
[09:01] <bruenig> dissection, apt-cache search just searches for stuff, so apt-cache search gtk
[09:01] <Flannel> dissection: what are you trying to do?
[09:01] <bruenig> he said >= 2.6
[09:01] <ditoa> does anyone here do any development in ubuntu?
[09:01] <dissection> Flannel: I want to install linux dc++. It needs gtk+
[09:01] <bruenig> not sure it exists
[09:01] <Flannel> bruenig: that's 2.10
[09:01] <JAGFin1> Anyone savvy with USB wireless?
[09:01] <XiXaQ> Flannel, yes, but it should accept connections from other hosts anyway?
[09:01] <bruenig> 2.10 > 2.6? I guess it depends on how you number
[09:02] <sebas_> Yoluca, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=114332
[09:02] <danta> Hitomaro: yes?
[09:02] <clever> would it be posible to build a bootstraping floppy with the kernel grub and initrd?
[09:02] <Frogzoo> ditoa: this is support here, more development at #ubuntu+1
[09:02] <Flannel> XiXaQ: no.  It's bound to localhost, it'll only accept connections from localhost.  You'll want to get rid of it (or add your other computers)
[09:02] <newuser00> what can i do to uninstall an aplication and completely remove all its files? i earlier uninstalled a certain aplication with synaptic (marked for complete removal) and now i re-installed it, but didnt have to download it again.
[09:02] <Flannel> bruenig: yes, 2.10 is > 2.6, 2.10 is not 2.1.0
[09:02] <Hitomaro> danata, how do I make the backup? what do I do with this "/etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup"?
[09:03] <BaD_CrC> dissection: sudo apt-get install linuxdcpp
[09:03] <Flannel> newuser00: that's not because stuff was still installed, but because it kept the package in your cache
[09:03] <bruenig> Hitomaro, I gave you the command cp
[09:03] <BaD_CrC> dissection: it should download and satisfy all deps
[09:03] <Frogzoo> newuser00: apt keeps a cache at /var/cache/app-install/
[09:03] <jorge_> ustedes son mas raros
[09:03] <dissection> BaD_CrC: E: Couldn't find package linuxdcpp
[09:03] <banlieue> so, anyone have any suggestions as to what to replace the gnome-foot with?
[09:03] <jorge_> hello
[09:03] <skollie> newuser00: it is stored locally after downloading and installing, but if you removed it, it's gone
[09:03] <banlieue> i'm thinking the ubuntu logo, but that's so standard
[09:03] <Frogzoo> newuser00: apt keeps a cache at /var/cache/apt/archives/
[09:03] <bruenig> banlieue, goatsee?
[09:03] <WelshPole> Anybody else with a wacom have this problem... When it works, it's fine, but sometimes it doesn't come on with boot
[09:03] <Hitomaro> oh thanks bruenig
[09:04] <Flannel> newuser00: you can clear your cache with `sudo apt-cache clean`
[09:04] <WelshPole> and it doesn't fix until I reboot
[09:04] <danta> Hitomaro: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup      this will make make a  copy of the xorg.conf file and call it xorg.conf.backup
[09:04] <banlieue> bruenig: i don't want that as both my icon and my background ;(
[09:04] <newuser00> Flannel & Frogzoo & skollie: thank you all =)
[09:04] <Frogzoo> banlieue: they're getting rid of the foot?
[09:04] <bruenig> banlieue, yeah that might look tacky
[09:04] <torhu> does wubi download everything?
[09:04] <clever> would it be posible to build a bootstraping floppy with the kernel grub and initrd?
[09:04] <banlieue> Frogzoo: they're not, but I am
[09:04] <Flannel> clever: yeah
[09:04] <Frogzoo> banlieue: damn
[09:05] <clever> Flannel: would i need to rebuild the kernel though? my initrd is 6mb
[09:05] <banlieue> it doesn't fit my theme
[09:05] <dissection>  E: Couldn't find package linuxdcpp
[09:05] <Hitomaro> ok
[09:05] <Hitomaro> I think I saved it
[09:05] <newuser00> theres a limit to the size of apt cache, right?
[09:05] <danta> clever: I think it's to big
[09:05] <banlieue> also, is there a website of sorts with image databases for stuff like this?
[09:05] <banlieue> i'm thinking of also replacing my menu-bar logo
[09:05] <clever> danta: yeah would take several floppys at the current size
[09:06] <daquino> i have a usb headset how do i go about getting ti to work ?
[09:06] <clever> and my root is on lvm
[09:06] <Frogzoo> newuser00: see /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archive
[09:06] <Flannel> dissection: DC++ is windows only.
[09:06] <Flannel> clever: Why do you need a boot floppy?
[09:06] <danta> clever: why no USB stick? or a CD-R
[09:06] <clever> Flannel: the harddrive doesnt boot in the computer
[09:06] <dissection> Flannel: I'm trying to install linuxdcpp. It says I need gtk+
[09:06] <clever> it cant boot cd either
[09:06] <newuser00> Frogzoo: thanx again ^^
[09:06] <clever> and it doesnt have any usb ports
[09:06] <Flannel> clever: Why not?  Doesn't boot to harddrive?
[09:06] <tannerld> anyone have trouble with last.fm not detecting your ipod?
[09:06] <dissection> http://linuxdcpp.berlios.de/
[09:07] <clever> Flannel: grub wont load from the drive
[09:07] <bruenig> last.fm not detects my ipod very well
[09:07] <Flannel> clever: is /boot on LVM?
[09:07] <XiXaQ> Flannel, you're right. I commented out the bind directive, and no I get an error saying that my ip isn't allowed to connect to it. How do I change that, do you know?
[09:07] <clever> Flannel: no
[09:07] <danta> clever: can't you write a grub to a floppy and let that start the kernel on the hard drive
[09:07] <edir> need help, there is a driver for viewtech wireless adaptor?
[09:07] <Frogzoo> newuser00: yw
[09:07] <Flannel> dissection: Well, to install gTK you just install the package `libgtk2.0-0`
[09:07] <clever> Flannel: the smartbootmanager cant see the harddrive to chainload grub
[09:07] <zenfool> Okay, i'm hungry :|
[09:07] <dissection> Flannel: libgtk2.0-0 is already installed
[09:07] <clever> grub uses the same bios interface to find drives
[09:07] <Flannel> clever: you can make a grub boot floppy
[09:08] <Flannel> dissection: that doesn't surprise me at all
[09:08] <clever> Flannel: i know ive made them before
[09:08] <Hitomaro> danta, I'm having a hard time trying to save my edit
[09:08] <Yoluca> is there a way to select the option install grub  in the ubuntu installer ? (will this damage my disk ) @?
[09:08] <dissection> Flannel: Why, did I do something wrong then?
[09:08] <danta> Hitomaro: you have to open it as root
[09:09] <dissection> Flannel: It did say that I may have the lib but not the headers
[09:09] <Hitomaro> I'll give you a screenie danta
[09:09] <stefg> Yoluca: not in the Desktop installer. if you need a custom grub install you'll have to go alternate
[09:09] <daan> 7mzukjzn
[09:09] <danta> Hitomaro: use "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" or the command line editor "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[09:09] <Flannel> dissection: libgtk2.0-dev
[09:10] <SuperTeece> hey all

[09:10] <dissection> Flannel: Okay, that is installing.. Let me try that, brb.
[09:10] <Hitomaro> thanks danta
[09:10] <Hitomaro> saved
[09:10] <Hitomaro> brb
[09:11] <switchcat> yay, it works.
[09:11] <switchcat> and its so damned easy to install new software.
[09:11] <AnObfuscator> Anyone here familiar with dmraid?
[09:12] <stefg> Yoluca: grub will overwrite the first 16 sectores of your hd. this is space normally not being used by anything. if you install to external hd, there's a catch, and there's reports that Vista complains about that in special cases
[09:12] <Yoluca> When at the grub prompt, type find /boot/grub/stage2  or find /boot/grub/stage1 ?
[09:12] <roachmmflhyr> anyone know how to get azureus to work right in feisty fawn?
[09:12] <tux2005> what's the problem AnObfuscator?
[09:12] <AnObfuscator> I can't get my nvraid + ubuntu system to initialize. It *tries* to boot the kernel, then dumps me to a busybox terminal
[09:13] <AnObfuscator> the error is, "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
[09:13] <derenrich> roachmmflhyr: worked out of the box for me...
[09:13] <Anlar> AnObfuscator: you mean, with the livecd?
[09:13] <AnObfuscator> no, after installing
[09:13] <Frogzoo> Anlar: probably you need to be using lilo as a boot loader for raid
[09:13] <roachmmflhyr> derenrich: you got lucky
[09:14] <stefg> AnObfuscator: so the kernel doesn't find its root-partition
[09:14] <Frogzoo> AnObfuscator: probably you need to be using lilo as a boot loader for raid
[09:14] <tux2005> i can't remember the exact error i had last weekend when installing nvraid on my system but the problem was i hadn't mounted sysfs or proc when i tried to install dmraid while chrooted
[09:14] <roachmmflhyr> derenrich: im having trouble forwarding my ports
[09:14] <Drk_Guy> Overwriting GRUB with LILO?
[09:14] <derenrich> roachmmflhyr: ah, did you check out the official wiki?
[09:14] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: were you able to boot the kernel, though?
[09:14] <Drk_Guy> I've never heard something like that
[09:14] <AnObfuscator> frogzoo: but doesn't LILO suck?
[09:14] <tux2005> no, it threw me to busybox
[09:14] <roachmmflhyr> derenrich: yeah been there
[09:14] <tux2005> you don't need lilo for dmraid
[09:15] <roachmmflhyr> derenrich: i get all green lights at the bottom
[09:15] <Drk_Guy> LInux LOader, how qwould it suck?
[09:15] <arooni_> what do i need to play back quicktime movies in firefox?
[09:15] <AnObfuscator> stefg: yeah, that seems to be the problem
[09:15] <derenrich> roachmmflhyr: odd
[09:15] <arooni_> or outside firefox?  i just get a blank screen
[09:15] <derenrich> roachmmflhyr: so you just can't dl anything?
[09:15] <roachmmflhyr> derenrich: dht is working it shows 2000+ seeders and leechers but no download or upload at all
[09:15] <Drk_Guy> If the problem is that the kernel doesn't find the root partition, you may want to reconfigure GRUB
[09:16] <kmcq__> where can i find the ubuntu logo on my system?
[09:16] <vinneh> why
[09:16] <kmcq__> /usr/share/??
[09:16] <g[r] eek> hi why do i get this error when going 'sudo apt-get update' sub-process: gzip returned an error code. gzip: stdin: not in gzip format.
[09:16] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: you mean, mount sysfs to /<mountedsystem>/sys, etc?
[09:16] <Drk_Guy> Roach, open the port
[09:16] <tux2005> yeah
[09:16] <freebse> arooni: vlc and if you want it to play in firefox you need the vlc extrension for firefox
[09:16] <derenrich> roachmmflhyr: i have no idea...have you tried other torrents?
[09:16] <vinneh> greek thats a weird error
[09:17] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I'll try reinstalling dmraid, then
[09:17] <vinneh> it means what it says
[09:17] <tux2005> AnObfuscator: that's what i'd try, last weekend i used: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464758 as my guide
[09:17] <roachmmflhyr> Drk_Guy: how exactly do you open the ports i tried but i may have done it wrong
[09:17] <vinneh> it means theres a corrupted file in the repo
[09:17] <g[r] eek> vinneh: well the update still seems to work. but im not entirely sure if its working 100%, because i follwed certain update instructions perfectly and the package manager still cannot find 'postgresql-8.2'
[09:17] <vinneh> i thmacbook rightclick alt clickink
[09:17] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: that's what I was using, too
[09:17] <Drk_Guy> Maybe Firestarter can help you Roach, but it makes my IpTables copy go crazy
[09:18] <arooni_> what do i need to play back quicktime movies in firefox?
[09:18] <arooni_> or outside firefox?  i just get a blank screen
[09:18] <Yoluca> stefg will menu.lst backup be good at anything ?
[09:18] <vinneh> try a apt-get -f
[09:18] <vinneh> apt-get -f dist-upgrade
[09:18] <vinneh> lol
[09:18] <Drk_Guy> :)
[09:18] <g[r] eek> vinneh: ive allowed dapper, dapper-security, dapper-backports, and dapper-updates, all on 'main universe multiverse restricted' access
[09:19] <vinneh> you will prolly find theres a messed up pack in one of the repos
[09:19] <vinneh> why you using dapper?
[09:19] <stefg> Yoluca: backups are never wrong, but this won't affect the issue (which lies outside of filesystem space
[09:19] <g[r] eek> 5 yeas lts
[09:19] <roachmmflhyr> Drk_Guy: firestarter...hmmm
[09:19] <Drk_Guy> Maybe the Dapper repository is down
[09:19] <g[r] eek> server, for work
[09:19] <vinneh> its time to switch to feisty
[09:19] <vinneh> lol
[09:19] <vinneh> :D
[09:19] <Drk_Guy> Roach, sudo apt-get install firestarter
[09:19] <vinneh> oh
[09:19] <vinneh> i see
[09:19] <roachmmflhyr> Drk_Guy:  what does it do with your iptables
[09:19] <Ayabara> !nfts

[09:19] <F50> Hi, I'm new to IRC and this is really hard to follow with so many people on, but here's my problem: I am using the nvidia-glx drivers for my integrated Geforce 2 MX (integrated w/ motherboard) and am having trouble getting it to work properly. It leaves artifacts if you scroll or move a window around and 3d games don't work well. Planet Penguin racer works ok for the first thirty seconds or so, but then the game appears to freeze for five 
[09:19] <mpcc> smo: hey!!!!
[09:19] <Yoluca> stefg can i juts use the backup file instead the main one ? like just overwrite the main one ? will it work ?
[09:19] <mpcc> im in wireless!!
[09:19] <kmcq__> guys where can i find the ubuntu logo thats used in ubuntu's desktop effects as a screen cap
[09:20] <smo> ?
[09:20] <mpcc> smo: I figured it out (finally!). i had wifi-radar but it didn't help much
[09:20] <Drk_Guy> It makes IpTables filter/drop EVERY packet coming from 128.196.xxx.xxx (My private internal Ip)
[09:20] <smo> what was wrong?
[09:20] <kmcq__> like on the top and bottom of the cube
[09:20] <mpcc> smo: I managed it through the network manager, the problem was that I was using WAP
[09:20] <skollie> well done mpcc!
[09:20] <kmcq__> id like to use that image in beryl
[09:20] <kmcq__> but i cant find it
[09:20] <smo> lol ok...
[09:20] <roachmmflhyr> Drk_Guy:  well thats no good
[09:20] <smo> ahah
[09:20] <mpcc> smo: so I went to my router and changed it to WEP and it worked!!!
[09:20] <clever> i put stage1&2 onto a floppy and grub loads but it cant see the harddrive
[09:20] <smo> good :)
[09:20] <kmcq__> any idea where its located?
[09:20] <mpcc> smo: fi-na_damn_lly!
[09:20] <Drk_Guy> Kmcq, maybe in /home/------/Examples
[09:21] <kmcq__> ok
[09:21] <smo> yeah
[09:21] <Drk_Guy> Roach, that has only happenned to me
[09:21] <Drk_Guy> Idk why?
[09:21] <smo> remember using lspci dmesg all things like that now ...
[09:21] <mpcc> smo: this reminds me of the good ol'days of DOS and config.sys and autoexec.bat ..hah! at last, some "hacking" adrenaline
[09:21] <roachmmflhyr> Drk_Guy:  ok thanks....ive got it installed now
[09:21] <kaptein> F50, I can't help you with your videocard but somoene else will answer you question. Just look for messages like this. If someone uses you name in a message it'll show up in bold text
[09:21] <vinneh> greek just try it again in a day or so
[09:21] <Drk_Guy> for nothing dood
[09:21] <mpcc> smo: yes I got the grip, now even if I dont remember them I can figure out the process much easier
[09:21] <F50> ty, kaptein
[09:21] <vinneh> maby someone is "maintaining
[09:21] <smo> yeah but yoy are the real master of your system ... when u know it
[09:21] <vinneh>  that package
[09:21] <vinneh> lol
[09:21] <Drk_Guy> mpcc, those were good old days
[09:21] <mpcc> smo: btw, I figured what was wrong with all the "invalid drivers"
[09:21] <mpcc> Drk_Guy:  yeap!
[09:22] <vinneh> or you could be very sneaky and rip the pack from the new repo
[09:22] <kaptein> f50, btw you can autocomplete names by pressing tab in most irc clients
[09:22] <vinneh> hopefully its backwards compatible
[09:22] <Drk_Guy> Pure Comands, no GUI, i can enjoy that only in UNIX clones, such as Linux
[09:22] <vinneh> long live bitchx
[09:22] <vinneh> :P
[09:22] <mpcc> smo: maybe this should help as a tip to others as well. When I was trying to  ndiswrapper -i path/driver.inf  I didnt know that it had to be exactly the correct path, what i mean is that even if you put a wrong path it still installs something, and because it doesnt find it it shows up as an invalid driver
[09:22] <Drk_Guy> Damned Santa Cruz Operation Group
[09:23] <GaryParr> hey... somewhat beginner here with a question about LVM, EVMS, and fstab mapping
[09:23] <mpcc> smo: all the time I was putting a wrong path (not hard to do when u are new to the whole ubuntu filesystem), and I thought that it was a driver problem!
[09:23] <mpcc> smo: when I put the "right" path then it installed the driver as it should!!
[09:23] <mpcc> smo & the rest of the people here, thank you very-very much for all the help!
[09:23] <smo> ah with the  \
[09:23] <mpcc> much appreciated!
[09:23] <Drk_Guy> Cool stuf......
[09:24] <fssssssssssh> how can i find out if my kernel supports DEVFS ?
[09:24] <smo> np :)
[09:24] <Drk_Guy> Hey mpcc, how to put spaces in cmd line
[09:24] <g[r] eek> how do i cut an paste a line in vi?
[09:24] <Drk_Guy> Withput invocating a new command
[09:24] <vinneh> greek
[09:24] <vinneh> wtf are you using vi for
[09:24] <vinneh> lol
[09:24] <Anlar> fssssssssssh: they don't anymore. it's the new an other thing, sysfs, that they all support
[09:24] <catunda> Does anyone know about howto change/update kernel in cd installer Dapper?
[09:24] <mpcc> smo: my username is mpc so I was doing a  /mpc/wifidrivers/mplamplah.inf  when I had to go straight for /wifidrivers ..cause it was taking /mpc/mpc double..
[09:24] <g[r] eek> vinneh: got putty access to my server :)
[09:24] <GaryParr> question - if I installed feisty fawn from alternate cd and used lvm to create multiple volumes... they are in fstab mounted with "mapper"... if I look in EVMS gui they show up as not mounted... is that normal?
[09:24] <fssssssssssh> ok thx Anlar
[09:25] <vinneh> nano can copy and paste
[09:25] <mpcc> Drk_Guy:  yeah! I figured that out thanx to smo! how could I know it was \ !
[09:25] <GaryParr> assuming it is because they are mounted under a different device?
[09:25] <vinneh> and its not nonsensicly
[09:25] <g[r] eek> iok
[09:25] <vinneh> nonsensicle
[09:25] <vinneh> lol
[09:25] <Drk_Guy> I mean, IE, /home/xxxxx/cool things/, without making "things" look as a new command
[09:26] <danta> g[r] eek http://www.cs.fsu.edu/general/vimanual.html#copypaste
[09:26] <rohan> any idea whether the newer xorg intel driver - 2.1.0 - has been backported to feisty from gutsy ?
[09:27] <Hitomaro> my monitor reads "no signal detected"
[09:27] <edsadr> Hello, I have a problem with my feisty, grub error 18, can anybody help me to solve this?
[09:27] <Hitomaro> how do I restore my resolution?
[09:27] <Hitomaro> danta, are you there?
[09:27] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro, go into Ubuntu recovery mode
[09:27] <GaryParr> anyone know LVM and EVMS?
[09:27] <Hitomaro> how do I do that?
[09:27] <danta> Hitmaro: you made a bacup of your config file, just put it back
[09:28] <Drk_Guy> GRUB shows Ubuntu normal and recovery mode
[09:28] <Hitomaro> how do I put it back now? I'm on livecd
[09:28] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro
[09:28] <Ayabara> is "/dev/sdb1 /mnt/one hfsplus rw,exec,noauto,users 0 0 " in /etc/fstab ok for mounting an external usb drive formatted to hfsplus?
[09:28] <danta> Hitomaro: is your hard drive mounted?
[09:28] <Hitomaro> yes
[09:28] <Drk_Guy> Got o a terminal and type "sudo dpkg reconfigure xorg xorgconf"
[09:29] <loco_aullador> hi i'd like to know if there's a way to install i386 packages in a amd64 different than what some web pages say about to create a jail
[09:29] <Drk_Guy> Maybe it will help
[09:29] <PirateLeChuck_> what command to show the available packages via apt-get? i have checked the man page and cannot see it
[09:29] <hajhouse> edsadr: this usually happens when you have added, removed, or changed drives or controllers
[09:29] <dissection> Flannel: Okay gtk+ is installed. It tells me to install libglade-2.0 ... Whats the name in apt-get I should type to install that?
[09:29] <Drk_Guy> Or if it doesn't, you got to go into the Ubuntu Recovery Mode
[09:29] <edsadr> well I think that my harddrive is failing
[09:29] <Drk_Guy> Guys
[09:29] <soneil> PirateLeChuck_, Usually I'd use apt-cache.  ie, apt-cache search foo.   apt-get does what it says .. it gets
[09:29] <gilnim_> howto share files on a lan without password or useraccounts with samba
[09:29] <codecaine> where can I get w32codecs?
[09:30] <Hitomaro> ok.. but how do I go to recovery mode?
[09:30] <PirateLeChuck_> soneil, many thanks
[09:30] <danta> Hitomaro: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf     you probably have to change the path, because your hard drive won't be mounted as root
[09:30] <PriceChild> !w32codecs | codecaine
[09:30] <ubotu> codecaine: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:30] <edsadr> I already try setting up my grub, but still getting the 18
[09:30] <Drk_Guy> Codecaine, Ubuntu automatically searches for them when you try to play an Mp3
[09:30] <bodachi> sup
[09:30] <dissection> !libglade
[09:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libglade - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:30] <bodachi> ok
[09:30] <hajhouse> edsadr: if your HD is failing then you should boot the ubuntu installer (live) cd, recover anything you haven't backed up already, and replace the drive
[09:30] <dissection> !libglade*
[09:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libglade* - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:30] <GaryParr> anyone... hate to sound like a broken record, but can anyone here answer a few questions about LVM and EVMS?
[09:30] <Drk_Guy> EdsaDr, try re-writing Ubuntu to the MBR
[09:31] <Drk_Guy>  Sorry, not Ubuntu
[09:31] <skollie> gilnim_ you could set up an ftp server with public anonymous access
[09:31] <Drk_Guy> It's GRUB
[09:31] <danta> Hitomaro: go to the file xorg.conf.backup on your drive and rename it to xorg.conf
[09:31] <Hitomaro> when I press f6 is that thing the same as the terminal?
[09:31] <Sh3r1ff> !ask | GaryParr
[09:31] <ubotu> GaryParr: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:31] <gilnim_> skollie: i want to use samba
[09:31] <GaryParr> ha!  q is this... setup ubuntu from alt cd using LVM... mapped in fstab using "mapper"... EVMS shows as not mounted... ?
[09:31] <GaryParr> is this because EVMS doesn't recognize the other mapping device?
[09:32] <skollie> gilnim_  samba users usually need a password
[09:32] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro, the LiveCD will  make any change to the VM, not the real HD files
[09:33] <dissection> It tells me to install libglade-2.0 ... Whats the name in apt-get I should type to install that?
[09:33] <Hitomaro> ok brb then
[09:33] <ariel_> ariel
[09:33] <PriceChild> dissection, "sudo apt-get isntall libglade" then press <tab> to see the possible completions :)
[09:34] <Flannel> dissection: you can also use apt-cache search [terms]  to search for things
[09:34] <Drk_Guy> edsadr
[09:34] <skollie> gilnim_: but you can try this - http://www.debuntu.org/guest-file-sharing-with-samba
[09:34] <Drk_Guy> I think i have a solution to your problem
[09:34] <edsadr> tell me
[09:34] <thug> !nvidia
[09:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:34] <hende07> hey i got a question i dl serpentine trying to burn a movie and it sound like i have alot of feedback what can i do
[09:35] <the_consul> Is there an easy way to find out if my isp is blocking some ports or if port forwarding on my router is working?
[09:35] <Drk_Guy> Reinstall GRUB as mentioned here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:35] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:36] <dr_evil> the_consul probably with netcat
[09:36] <AnObfuscator> I still can't get dmraid to boot properly; I can get to a busybox kernel shell, and I can see my raid array in /dev/mapper, but it still can't initialize
[09:36] <F50> Does anyone know how to solve a glx mismatch between an install of Fiesty and the nvidia-glx-legacy driver? (my Geforce 2 MX is having trouble under the nvidia-glx driver)
[09:36] <PurpZeY> Is Samba the most reasonable way to share files on a local network between two ubuntu machines?
[09:36] <Bakkar> Good day everyone, I wonder why my games connection rate is so slow on Ubuntu ?
[09:36] <edsadr> hold on
[09:36] <level1> Hi, I'm having some trouble with apt-get... it refuses to work until I run apt-get -f install (no arguments) which wants to remove kubunutu desktop
[09:36] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:36] <edsadr> I already try reinstalling grub
[09:36] <Drk_Guy> F50, i have G4rce 4 MX and i have no probs
[09:37] <Drk_Guy> Un-install all Nvidia things you have installed
[09:37] <level1> This is after I installed something from debian-multimedia
[09:37] <vinneh> level1 that means there is a broken package
[09:37] <Bakkar> while i am on 256K and should get an avarage rate at 25KB/sec I get max 10 KB/sec
[09:37] <F50> Ok, that's easy.
[09:37] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:37] <PurpZeY> Can anyone recommend a simple way to share files between two ubuntu machines in a simplistic way, I just want to play my mp3s from my desktop on my laptop?
[09:37] <level1> vinneh: well, how do I get it to fix the broken package without removing my desktop environment?
[09:37] <Drk_Guy> Bakklar, that's ISP stuff, we can't help you
[09:37] <vinneh> purpzy
[09:37] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: nfs
[09:37] <vinneh> FTP
[09:38] <PurpZeY> vinneh: A local network
[09:38] <Drk_Guy> PurpZey, use Samba
[09:38] <F50> PurpZeY, I suggest scp and ssh. Samba is mostly used with windows-linux operation
[09:38] <GaryParr> anyone know if there is an advantage/disadvantage to having logical volumes mounted through evms instead of the default lvm3 mapper?
[09:38] <vinneh> yes
[09:38] <vinneh> FTP
[09:38] <GaryParr> err. lvm2 mapper that is
[09:38] <Drk_Guy> PurpZey:http://www.debuntu.org/guest-file-sharing-with-samba
[09:38] <Bakkar> Drk_Guy: but my downloads are fast I get an avaerage of 28KB/sec
[09:38] <PurpZeY> vinneh: That is ridiculous.
[09:38] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:38] <vinneh> is it?
[09:38] <PurpZeY> F50: Is that hard to setup?
[09:38] <vinneh> i use ftp to transfer over my local network
[09:38] <vinneh> it does the job
[09:38] <vinneh> lol
[09:38] <OfflerCrocGod> come on samba is not over kill
[09:38] <Drk_Guy> Ubuntu doesn't save the 15% of Bandwith as Windowze does, that's why you're dl's are faster
[09:39] <Bakkar> is there any background daemons runs on Ubuntu that might consume bandwidth ?
[09:39] <PurpZeY> vinneh: I don't want to transfer
[09:39] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:39] <hende07> hey everyone i downloaded a movie and am using serpentine to try to burn it. i make a preview of it and it sound like theres feedback what should i do
[09:39] <skollie> PurpZey: If you have a local network, share the relevant dirs
[09:39] <hende07> so are you guys just freakin ignoring me...
[09:39] <Drk_Guy> Maybe, but i don't think so
[09:39] <PurpZeY> skollie: That's EXACTLY what I am looking to do
[09:39] <Sh3r1ff> !nfs | PurpZeY
[09:39] <ubotu> PurpZeY: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:39] <Drk_Guy> Hende, no one knows why
[09:39] <misnix> hende07, we we  read read  it it the the 1st time, quit spamming
[09:39] <buize> hey
[09:40] <buize> im looking for an audio player with a really good visualizer
[09:40] <PurpZeY> Sh3r1ff: And that is what skollie is talking about? Just sharing the dirs?
[09:40] <buize> currently my mp3s are playing in totem movie player
[09:40] <skollie> PurpZey: set up a shared directory in Samba
[09:40] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: you share on one pc and you can mount it on the other
[09:40] <babo> what's the linux security auditor distro called again ?
[09:40] <Drk_Guy> Babo, that's IpTablesd
[09:41] <PurpZeY> Sh3r1ff: So, if the drives are actually NTFS drives on the other machine this would still work?
[09:41] <Drk_Guy> *IpTables
[09:41] <softwork> 1127?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:41] <softwork> hi
[09:41] <babo> Drk_Guy, no ... the distro .
[09:41] <softwork> where i see driver sound in use?
[09:41] <softwork> to put in vmware
[09:41] <softwork> because in automatic
[09:41] <softwork> i dont have sound
[09:41] <softwork> in vmware
[09:41] <GaryParr> with new people entering the room I'm going to ask again... not meaning to spam...  anyone know of advantage/disadvantage of mounting logical volumes through the evms mapper instead of the lvm2 mapper?
[09:42] <softwork> i dont have sound in vmware
[09:42] <Drk_Guy> PurpZey, for NTFS to be read/write able, you need some FUSES, this app makes that simpler, sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[09:42] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: as long as you have read access, you can at least read it, writing won't be possible though, linux isn't able to write to ntfs
[09:42] <vinneh> gary
[09:42] <Drk_Guy> Idk Babo
[09:42] <vinneh> you could ask that in ubuntu+1
[09:42] <vinneh> theres more geeks in there
[09:42] <PurpZeY> Sh3r1ff: Yeah, I have them mounted as read only, it's just my mp3s are all on NTFS drives.
[09:42] <vinneh> :D
[09:42] <GaryParr> new to this... what's ubuntu+1 ?
[09:42] <Drk_Guy> Softwiork, System->Prefernces-Sound
[09:42] <vinneh> oh
[09:43] <Flannel> GaryParr: it's the channel for development versions of ubuntu.  Gutsy right now.
[09:43] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: nfs is the thing for ya, just follow the link ubotu gave you
[09:43] <g[r] eek> hi im still getting: "Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)" when doin sudo apt-get update
[09:43] <Drk_Guy> I want to be a Gutsy beta tester
[09:43] <vinneh> yeah
[09:43] <vinneh> that
[09:43] <vinneh> s real wearird
[09:43] <GaryParr> thanks for the info vinneh and Flannel
[09:43] <vinneh> drk guy
[09:43] <stefg> !gutsy
[09:43] <vinneh> lol
[09:43] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[09:43] <skollie> PurpZey: if they're mounted, it is easy enough to share via samba - the default smb.conf has some examples
[09:43] <vinneh> i give you permission
[09:43] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: go ahead.  It's still alpha though.  You're welcome to alpha test too.  If you feel like it
[09:43] <PurpZeY> Sh3r1ff: Ok, I see here I have to edit the shares, how do I add those two ntfs drives to the share?
[09:43] <vinneh> lol
[09:43] <babo> Drk_Guy, I was thinking about the imaginatively named 'Auditor' distro ...
[09:44] <babo> thanks though
[09:44] <PurpZeY> skollie: I hear samba is overkill...it seems like NFS would work, why wouldn't I use that?
[09:44] <Drk_Guy> Thanx Flannel
[09:44] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: can 't help you on the details of nfs
[09:44] <vinneh> drk guy
[09:44] <Sh3r1ff> PurpZeY: i'm sure someone here can
[09:44] <g[r] eek> vinneh: my sources.list: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29034/
[09:44] <vinneh> when you go to install it
[09:44] <skollie> PurpZey: not sure why Samba would be overkill, but afaik it would be much easier to configure
[09:45] <PurpZeY> Sh3r1ff: Fair enough.
[09:45] <PurpZeY> !smb
[09:45] <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
[09:45] <vinneh> run ubiquity as root
[09:45] <mariocesar_bo> hi all, i want to do a dial-in server, so I was looking around, and google doesn't help much ... anyone has install a dial-in server on ubuntu ?
[09:45] <Anlar> PurpZeY: the nicest way between couple linux machines is to use ssh, just install ssh daemons and the nautilus will be able to mount them for you :) it's actualyl pretty working solution
[09:45] <kavelot> where can I get complete (ready to install) Ubuntu? I don't want the install version because the connection where I'm now is much faster than the one where I'll install it
[09:45] <Drk_Guy> Sh3r1ff, NtFs-config makes Ubuntu able to read/write NTFS partitions/disks by setting up a FUSE
[09:45] <vinneh> anlar
[09:45] <vinneh> you am teh clevers
[09:45] <danta> !ubuntu
[09:45] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[09:45] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Is that easy to configure?
[09:45] <Drk_Guy> FUSE=Filesystem in User Space
[09:46] <Drk_Guy> Alias=Virtual Filesystem
[09:46] <vinneh> yah fuse am good too
[09:46] <g[r] eek> vinneh: my sources.list look normal to you?
[09:46] <softwork> hi, is secure write/read ntfs partitions?
[09:46] <vinneh> sorry its not loading
[09:46] <vinneh> gimme a tick
[09:46] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I haven't been on windows for quite sometime. But when I was I had my desktop setup as //PurpZeY/ so that i could access my mp3s and docs via the laptop locally.
[09:46] <vinneh> im using bitchx and sometimes the clicky links dont work
[09:46] <Flannel> g[r] eek: yeah, looks normal.  Well, you've got backports, but for someone with backports it's normal.
[09:47] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I am just looking to do the same thing.
[09:47] <g[r] eek> then why am i getting "Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)" when doin sudo apt-get update
[09:47] <Hitomaro> I still can't recover
[09:47] <Hitomaro> ???
[09:47] <Drk_Guy> Softwork, Ntfs-config enables Linux to (safely) write to a Ntfs-partition
[09:47] <vinneh> your getting that
[09:47] <vinneh> because one of your repos
[09:47] <vinneh> contains a file
[09:47] <vinneh> that is called by apt
[09:47] <softwork> thx
[09:47] <vinneh> that doesnt work
[09:47] <vinneh> lol
[09:47] <Flannel> kavelot: what are you wanting?  Any of the CD images are ready to install.  Although you might be more interested in the alternate CD over the desktop.
[09:47] <Hitomaro> danta
[09:48] <g[r] eek> ya
[09:48] <Hitomaro> are you there?
[09:48] <danta> Hitomaro: have you restored the xorg.conf file?
[09:48] <dmesg> hi
[09:48] <g[r] eek> Failed to fetch http://za.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[09:48] <Drk_Guy> Softwork, in a terminal, sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[09:48] <dissection> What do I need to edit my menus?
[09:48] <dmesg> have u gusy have look at the ban list?
[09:48] <dmesg> guys
[09:48] <Anlar> PurpZeY: yeah! just install openssh-server, then look at what the nautilus on your other desktop offers.. it offers connect to share -thing, which does "ssh/sftp" with the account of the another computer.. :)
[09:48] <kavelot> Flannel: hm, I though the "install version" would be like a "downloader" to a complete version (at least its pretty small compared to other distros nowadays)
[09:48] <Drk_Guy> Ah! and they get auto-mounted and start-up if you want
[09:48] <vinneh> nope
[09:48] <softwork> thx
[09:48] <Anlar> PurpZeY: the performance is quite high and it's secure and just works and the gui stuff knows all about it
[09:49] <dissection> What do I need to edit my menus? apt-cache search showed up a menu editor for enlightenment.. I'm not sure what that is.. I'm using GNOME.
[09:49] <Flannel> kavelot: No.  the 700MB CD is a full OS.  It doesn't contain all the packages in the repos, but it *is* a full OS
[09:49] <Hitomaro> "no signal detected" is what I get since I played around with the resolution on the xorg.conf
[09:49] <F50> PurpZeY, I usually just use the terminal though. Get ssh and sshd run sshd on one of the machines, and then "ssh fooip". once your files are located "scp foouser@barsourceip bazuser@bopdestip". Sorry for putting it so cryptically...
[09:49] <vinneh> dissection
[09:49] <F50> and those are not meant to be links
[09:49] <Flannel> kavelot: With the alternate CD, you also get a small repository of additional goodies on the CD, which is why I recommend it for you
[09:49] <vinneh> what do you mean edit
[09:49] <Drk_Guy> dissection, sudo alacarte
[09:49] <kavelot> got it, thanks
[09:49] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro, did you do the dpkg thingy
[09:49] <vinneh> you can change colours n stuff by editing your theme
[09:49] <danta> Hitomaro: have you restored your xorg.conf file, because before you started playing with it, you made a backup
[09:49] <AnObfuscator> any dmraid guys still around?
[09:49] <Hitomaro> I still can't use the "sudo cp /etc/x11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/x11/xorg.con
[09:49] <Hitomaro> "
[09:50] <g[r] eek> once ive edited sources.list, do i need to type somehting else to "restart it" before going "sudo apt-get update" or what?
[09:50] <PurpZeY> F50: This is all CLI?
[09:50] <PriceChild> Drk_Guy, dissection don't use sudo when usign alacarte!!!
[09:50] <F50> don't know what CLI means.
[09:50] <tux2005> didn't help, AnObfuscator?
[09:50] <Drk_Guy> Thanks for correcting me PriceC
[09:50] <Flannel> g[r] eek: the update is the 'restart'
[09:50] <torhu> can I open an .rpm file with synaptic?
[09:50] <denver> do the kernel headers exist on default ubuntu 7.04 install?
[09:50] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: no, same problem
[09:50] <Drk_Guy> Command Line Interface
[09:50] <danta> Hitomaro: your hard drive is mounted in your live-CD?
[09:50] <Hitomaro> I did make the backup as you said
[09:50] <PurpZeY> F50: It's all done via command line?
[09:50] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I can see my dmraid partions, though
[09:50] <Hitomaro> danta, I don't think so
[09:50] <nivekc1> my computer has a serial ata HDD installed and i know that i can use ide drives seperate but i want to use one at the same time so that i can have one set up with ubuntu and one with kubuntu is that possible?
[09:50] <Drk_Guy> Denver, alien takes .Rpm ackages to installabe .DEB Packages
[09:51] <F50> Ah, that's the way I do it anyways, there probably is a GUI way to do it but...
[09:51] <tux2005> from the busybox shell, AnObfuscator?
[09:51] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: yeah
[09:51] <F50> so, yes.
[09:51] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro, no back-ups, i said, re-configure the whole file
[09:51] <tux2005> are you passing in the correct path in the grub config for root=?
[09:51] <denver> excuse me?
[09:51] <Hitomaro> how do I recover?
[09:51] <Drk_Guy> Rats, denver, i confused you with torhu
[09:51] <Drk_Guy> Sorry
[09:51] <Hitomaro> or rather re-configure
[09:51] <PurpZeY> Anlar: so I am just looking for sudo apt-get openssh-server on the server?
[09:51] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I was even able to mount my /home partition
[09:52] <Anlar> PurpZeY: yes.
[09:52] <PurpZeY> Anlar: And on the client?
[09:52] <Drk_Guy> Hitomaro, in the Recovery mode=sudo dpkg reconfigure xorg xorgconf
[09:52] <Anlar> PurpZeY: start up the file manager (nautilus), file, connect to server...
[09:52] <Hitomaro> "sudo dpkg reconfigure xorg xorgconf"
[09:52] <Hitomaro> is that correct?
[09:52] <turtle_> hello everybody
[09:52] <Anlar> PurpZeY: and ssh or sftp, and it works really nicely
[09:52] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: yeah, I've checked it a couple of times. root=<my boot partition> yes?
[09:53] <PurpZeY> Anlar: And by that time I will know the server name?
[09:53] <gnomefreak> vinneh: don not send anyone to #ubuntu+1 just because you cant answer their questioon
[09:53] <turtle_> hello'
[09:53] <tux2005> AnObfuscator: nope, should be your real root partition
[09:53] <vinneh> lol
[09:53] <vinneh> gnomefreak
[09:53] <vinneh> yeah
[09:53] <turtle_> you guys are fucking retards
[09:53] <dissection> I just used alacarte to add a new item to my menu but forgot to add an icon.. I went back in there to edit, or remove it and add it again.. But it doesn't show up there.. But its there in the applications > internet menu.. How can I get it in alacarte? Or do custom additions don't show up there?
[09:53] <vinneh> tru
[09:53] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: let me edit it and get back to you, then
[09:53] <tux2005> or well, the root you pass to the kernel should be the real root partition
[09:53] <vinneh> it seemed like a good question
[09:53] <vinneh> he was asking for ages
[09:54] <Hitomaro> brb
[09:54] <Flannel> !enter | vinneh
[09:54] <ubotu> vinneh: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:54] <gnomefreak> vinneh: +1 is only for devel versions
[09:54] <Drk_Guy> Yeah Hitomaro
[09:54] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: the root I pass to the kernel?
[09:54] <vinneh> understood
[09:54] <vinneh> sorry :)
[09:54] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Serverside will let me setup a server name and choose with files to share?
[09:54] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it doesn't help you, the dns name of the other party.. you have to know it.
[09:54] <tux2005> AnObfuscator: on the kernel= line of your grub config you need to pass root=/dev/mapper/nvidia_<root partition>
[09:55] <softwork> y
[09:55] <Anlar> PurpZeY: what is "shared" is what the account you are using on the server side has rights to
[09:55] <tux2005> the root=(hdX,X) line should be to your /boot partition
[09:55] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I see. But since it's my desktop the dns is easily identifiable, it's local, but it would be it's local IP, right?
[09:55] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it's slightly different but worth getting used to. it's superb handy
[09:55] <GaryParr> hey... #ubuntu+1 didn't like me asking a support question in the dev forum... can't say I blame them... so I'm trying here again... anyone know why Disk Usage Analyzer would show 100% usage on / when df -h shows 17% (logical voumes) and also... anyone know a difference (performance/stability/etc) between mapping a logical volume through EVMS vs LVM2 mapper?
[09:56] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: ok, I'm booting the liveCD now to check that
[09:56] <vinneh> yeah i got that garry
[09:56] <Drk_Guy> Tux2005, this doc can help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:56] <vinneh> i just figured it had lots of smart people in it
[09:56] <vinneh> but yeah
[09:56] <vinneh> it is only for gusty distro
[09:57] <GaryParr> dude, thanks for the adice though... I know where you were headed with that... makes sense...
[09:57] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I will start to set it up, and when I run into problems (hopefully I won't) I'll hit the chan...Thanks man, I appreciate it.
[09:57] <tux2005> my ubuntu is booting just fine :P
[09:57] <Drk_Guy> Tux, weren't you mentioning somethign about re-installing GRUB
[09:57] <Drk_Guy> ?
[09:57] <Drk_Guy> :p
[09:58] <tux2005> nope, i was explaining to AnObfuscator which lines of his grub config he needs to check for dmraid/fakeraid
[09:58] <GaryParr> another question... suppose I installed lvm gui after using alien to turn the RPM into a deb package... and now I realize that lvm gui isn't all that great... how do I remove it since dpkg -r wants a package name? What's the package name?
[09:59] <nurik> #ubuntud-e
[09:59] <Jack_Sparrow> I need help reapiring grub afer reinstalling windows.. the wiki info is NOT woking on my sata drive... grub setup says it cannot mount (hd0) both the Windows and ubuntu are ounted in my livecd session..
[09:59] <LukeEkblad> Hello,  I'm back from brekfast/lunch
[09:59] <Drk_Guy> Ok Tux, sorry then
[09:59] <LukeEkblad> Its was soooooo Good
[10:00] <phobiac> I set up ndiswrapper recently and now the only way to get my wireless card up and running is to run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper after logging in
[10:00] <phobiac> How can I do this automatically?
[10:00] <Drk_Guy> Jack
[10:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Yes
[10:00] <Drk_Guy> Try to do the same on the Recovery Mode
[10:00] <dissection> I just used alacarte to add a new item to my menu but forgot to add an icon.. I went back in there to edit, or remove it and add it again.. But it doesn't show up there.. But its there in the applications > internet menu.. How can I get it in alacarte? Or do custom additions don't show up there?
[10:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Is there a recovery mode on dapper livecd?
[10:01] <Jack_Sparrow> I do have a fiesty livecd
[10:01] <Drk_Guy> The Live CD only makes changes to the VM Files instead of the real HD files in the majority of cases
[10:01] <Drk_Guy> No
[10:01] <Drk_Guy> ....
[10:01] <starz> ok
[10:01] <starz> someone better take responsability for this
[10:01] <starz> mozilla-mplayer is broken beyond belief in firefox.
[10:01] <starz> i.e.
[10:01] <Drk_Guy> The Grub entry does it's work on the HD files
[10:01] <starz> IT DOES NOTHING.
[10:01] <Drk_Guy> Sorry Jack
[10:01] <starz> works fine in epiphany tho
[10:01] <starz> so whats the dead????????????
[10:02] <Drk_Guy> Jack
[10:02] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[10:02] <Drk_Guy> The LiveCD DOES help in this case
[10:02] <Drk_Guy> Sorry
[10:02] <Jack_Sparrow> It is a dapper install I am trying to recover
[10:02] <Drk_Guy> But, other question
[10:02] <gnomefreak> dissection: the application adds the icon in menu it uses a applicationname.desktop that holds the instructions for its menu entry
[10:03] <Drk_Guy> Which guide are u using
[10:03] <skollie> phobiac: look at this article - http://www.tuxmagazine.com/node/10001
[10:03] <phobiac> skollie: thank you
[10:03] <Drk_Guy> Jack?
[10:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Tried the one linked in here and another on geeks
[10:03] <Drk_Guy> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:03] <skollie> phobiac: np
[10:03] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[10:03] <Drk_Guy> That helped me
[10:03] <RadioApeShot> I am trying to prevent the tulip module from loading but when I add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and run depmod -a and reboot its still there.  I have even tried moving the physical .ko files for this whole driver family to a new location and it STILL is present after reboot.
[10:04] <Drk_Guy> What gives
[10:04] <dissection> gnomefreak: The application I installed did not have an icon.. What do I do in such cases?
[10:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Didnt work on mine
[10:04] <Drk_Guy> Jack, follow my instructions
[10:04] <RadioApeShot> If modprobe -r tulip and then try to load it again, then it can't find the modules
[10:04] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: so, you say root=/dev/mapper/<partition for /> ?
[10:04] <F50> I am trying to get apt-get or the client, synaptic to install for me the nvidia-kernel version 1.0.7xxx but synaptic won't allow me to force version for this one. Help
[10:04] <gnomefreak> dissection: not much just shy of rebuilding it
[10:04] <RadioApeShot> Does feisty treat the blacklist differently or ignore it?
[10:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Ready when you are
[10:04] <gnomefreak> dissection: try another icon theme
[10:04] <phobiac> skollie: That link leads to a page not found :(
[10:04] <Drk_Guy> Open up a terminal
[10:04] <dissection> okay
[10:05] <Drk_Guy> Type sudo -i
[10:05] <tux2005> sort of, AnObfuscator, there are 2 root= bits in the grub conf, the one on the kernel= line needs the real root partition
[10:05] <Drk_Guy> You with me?
[10:05] <Jack_Sparrow> I kvm between the two but yes I have a term open in there
[10:05] <Jack_Sparrow> su -i done
[10:05] <skollie> phobiac: sorry - badd cutting & pasting. Here it is - http://www.tuxmagazine.com/node/1000167
[10:05] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[10:05] <Drk_Guy> Type grub
[10:05] <Jack_Sparrow> done
[10:05] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: and the others need to be the partition containing the kernel image?
[10:06] <tux2005> yes
[10:06] <AnObfuscator> ok
[10:06] <AnObfuscator> I'll see if that works
[10:06] <Hitomaro> omg
[10:06] <phobiac> skollie: Thank you
[10:06] <Drk_Guy> Type find /boot/grub/stage1
[10:06] <Jack_Sparrow> done
[10:06] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: ?
[10:06] <Jack_Sparrow> came back hd0.3
[10:06] <Hitomaro> I think I'll have to reinstall everything
[10:06] <skollie> phobiac: the bit you're looking for is about half-way down the page
[10:06] <Hitomaro> hey IndyGunFreak
[10:06] <RadioApeShot> So anyone know about this blacklist problem?  I am really mystified.
[10:06] <AnObfuscator> my life would be so much easier if the ubuntu team would put the dmraid driver on the fricken' live cd :P
[10:06] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: why do you think you'll have to reinstal?
[10:06] <Drk_Guy> Mine's almost like yours
[10:06] <Drk_Guy> Let's continue
[10:07] <Jack_Sparrow> The next step is where I get the error
[10:07] <Jack_Sparrow> setup (hd0)
[10:07] <Drk_Guy> Type root hd0,3
[10:07] <flake> when I do a 'who -a', I get a system boot, run-level2, logins tty5-tty1-tty6-etc, my user name ? :0 and then pts/1 and pts/3 term=0 exit=2.. what does the pts and term mean
[10:07] <noob-untu> hi all
[10:07] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: My monitor is not detecting the signal
[10:07] <Jack_Sparrow> cnat monut the drive, though it is mounted and I can browse it with nautilus
[10:07] <vinneh> hai
[10:07] <IndyGunFreak> both of them, or just one?
[10:07] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: I was messing around with the xorg.conf
[10:08] <danta> IndyGunFreak Hitomaro he has backuped his xorg.conf file in the same folder xorg.conf.backup
[10:08] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: tried to change the resolution...
[10:08] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: i see, ..
[10:08] <danta> IndyGunFreak: so he has to mount his hard drive and restore the backup
[10:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: Not too worried about losing things and I can always reinstall.. just hoping to learn why this would not work
[10:09] <IndyGunFreak> danta: yeah, seems that way, i'm unfortunately clueless how to do that.
[10:09] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: I got into recovery mode, typed "sudo dpkg reconfigure xorg xorgconf" but nothing happend
[10:09] <F50> any clues as to downgrading the (binary, I assume) nvidia-kernel?
[10:09] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: probably because you were basically running that command on the Live CD..
[10:10] <IndyGunFreak> you need to mount your hard drive, then run it.
[10:10] <forest> Ok, what's the easiest way to get filesharing between an Ubuntu machine and a Windows machine on the same network? I am confused by many different samba guides
[10:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: I did hd0,3... no prob
[10:10] <LinAsH> forest, samba
[10:10] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: actually.. no.. I went on recovery mode without the cd =)
[10:10] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: oh ok
[10:10] <BaD_CrC> it "just works (tm)"
[10:10] <Jack_Sparrow> setup (hd0)  is the error
[10:10] <BaD_CrC> Places menu -> Network
[10:11] <IndyGunFreak> Hitomaro: did you reinstall using the alternate install cd?
[10:11] <RadioApeShot> So no ideas anyone about this tulip issue
[10:11] <hende07>  i have the files on my desktop what do i do in the terminal
[10:11] <forest> LinAsH -- do you know what I have to do? I keep seeing different samba guides about editing config files. I can't see the windows computer on the Places->Network folder
[10:11] <Drk_Guy> Jack?
[10:11] <BaD_CrC> oh shit. i was supposed to go to a MS PlayTest thing today.
[10:11] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[10:11] <the_consul> is it possible to search for a term in a man page opened up in a terminal?...or better yet get man information for a specific option of a command?
[10:12] <BaD_CrC> oh well, there will be a next time
[10:12] <Drk_Guy> Where are you?
[10:12] <hende07>  can someone help me install a game
 i have the files on my desktop what do i do in the terminal
[10:12] <Jack_Sparrow> I did hd0,3... fine...
[10:12] <Hitomaro> hey IndyGunFreak, I have the alternate cd and installed it... but I got a lot of errors
[10:12] <Twigathy> the_consul: you could try man whatever | grep someWordHere
[10:12] <Drk_Guy> you did "root (hd0,3)" fine?
[10:12] <hende07>  can someone help me install a game
 i have the files on my desktop what do i do in the terminal
[10:13] <j1tters> hey all. trying to to install fiesty server.  goes fine. but freezes at 85% everytime. just sits there saying installed php5-mysql
[10:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: yes.. root (hd0,3)  fine no errorsa
[10:13] <j1tters> any ideas
[10:13] <Drk_Guy> hende, they should be .deb packages
[10:13] <skollie> hende07: which game and what format are the files in?
[10:13] <danta> Hitomaro: see if your hard drive isn't mounted under /dev/hda1 or something like it
[10:13] <Drk_Guy> Jack, type "setup (hd0,3)"
[10:13] <babo> are there any gparted tutorials for a linux system ?
[10:13] <the_consul> Twigathy: thanks, I should have thought of that
[10:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: I have done this a thousand ties for other people.. but this one system with sata.. non-raid.. has an issue
[10:13] <Hitomaro> danta: ok
[10:13] <Jack_Sparrow> times
[10:14] <F50> hende07, I assume you couldn't find it with Synaptic?
[10:14] <an> hi to all, i'm complete new to ubuntu, just installed, 7.06 on ibook g4, connected to my wireless network, and don't know where to fin the (at)
[10:14] <Twisties> Is there a way to automatically reconfigure the xorg.conf?
[10:14] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys, I bought this Acer laptop which came with vista home premium pre-installed (yuk) but anyway I formatted the laptop then installed ubuntu then downloaded vista retail and installed that aswell using the vista bootloader at the mo... Vista has since rejected my activation key and been general not very nice, would it be easy to wipe out vista and put grub back in place
[10:14] <Drk_Guy> But, what does GRUB reports?
[10:14] <Jack_Sparrow> ok dark
[10:14] <hende07> ya battle of westnoth i downloaded it from the internet extracted it to desktop
[10:14] <Drk_Guy> Paddy_EiRE, go here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:14] <RadioApeShot> I guess I will re-iterate the question: I can't seem to prevent a blacklisted module from loading.
[10:14] <sahil_> hey guys i just re-installed ubuntu and ran sudo dpks-reconfigure xserver-xorg to get a good resolution but it always becomes very blurry, what can I do?
[10:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: exists..no exists no... file not found
[10:14] <skollie> hende07: in what format?
[10:15] <Twisties> Is there a way to automatically reconfigure the xorg.conf?
[10:15] <hende07> what do you mean skollie
[10:15] <Drk_Guy> File not found?
[10:15] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[10:15] <Drk_Guy> Mine tells all files are on place
[10:15] <skollie> hendeo7: are they .deb files ?
[10:15] <F50> hende07, Battle for Wesnoth should be easy to install via Synaptic. if you got some sort of binary I cannot help you.
[10:16] <hende07> im not sure they came in a archived folder
[10:16] <F50> then you got source?
[10:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: Like I said.. this makes no sense, windows works fine... Ubuntu partition is there and I can access those files
[10:16] <Drk_Guy> What i suggest in this case is that you make a back-up of everything and re-install
[10:16] <j1tters> any ideas on the installation freeze?
[10:16] <Drk_Guy> It's really non-sense
[10:16] <Drk_Guy> J1tters, cd damaged
[10:16] <j1tters> did the cd check and its fine
[10:16] <skollie> hende07: double-click the file, which should open in your archiver and you can then extract it
[10:16] <Drk_Guy> It happened to me, i had to re-dl everything
[10:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: Nothing there not already backed up before windows reinstall... just cant figure out why this one system wont behave when trying to fix grub
[10:17] <hende07> right thats what i did to the desktop how do i run it
[10:17] <Uranellus> hey, I'm using latest stable kubuntu and would like to use beagle to search through my thunderbird mails .. now I read on the bealge page that the thunderbird part is not anymore compiled by default .. does this affect ubuntu's version of beagle as well? or is there (as there is in opensuse) a seperate package to ship beagle-thunderbird support?
[10:17] <Drk_Guy> Jack, wich version you are using?
[10:18] <hende07> skollie thats what i did how do i run it
[10:18] <Twisties> Is there a way to automatically reconfigure the xorg.conf?
[10:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: If you copy all of var.cache apt/archives to a cd you can copy them back or add cd as repo and not need to dl everything again..
[10:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Twisties: yes
[10:18] <james296> can someone help me get back the default fonts.config file because I thought when I remove that it automatically restores it to how it originally was but it didnt do that
[10:18] <Drk_Guy> Jack, you can copy them as ROOT
[10:18] <skollie> hende07: if it was in an archive, you need to extract it first and save the extracted files somewhere. then you should have a list of all the files where you saved it
[10:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Twisties: yes it is something like dpkg --reconfigure xorg...
[10:18] <Drk_Guy> sudo cp <source> <destiny>
[10:18] <james296> so can I plz have a default layout of what its supposed to look like?
[10:18] <sniDe_pt2> guys, after i enabled the use of nvidia accelerated graphics driver under Restricted Drivers Manager and rebooted my laptop.. when the Ubuntu logo just finished loading .. then my screen went all black. I had to reboot and went into the recovery mode and copied the original xorg.conf back to x11 folder, now im back to step 1. anyone know whats up with that?
[10:19] <hende07> right i extracted the archive to the desktop
[10:19] <Drk_Guy> You can't copy them as normal user
[10:19] <ralph> hi i installed ubuntu and grub and i have installed windows. but when i choose windows while booting i get "invalid device requested". what can i do?
[10:19] <hende07> how do i run it ?
[10:19] <skollie> and do you see any kind of executable?
[10:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: I can gksudo nautilus and copy those with no issues
[10:19] <Drk_Guy> ralph, you need to reconfigure your GRUB booting file
[10:19] <Drk_Guy> Maybe
[10:19] <hende07> no
[10:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: Thanks for the effort
[10:19] <Drk_Guy> That's a good idea too
[10:19] <ralph> the menu.lst, Drk_Guy?
[10:19] <Drk_Guy> For nothing
[10:19] <skollie> hende07: is it a Windows game and what OS are you running?
[10:20] <Drk_Guy> Ralph, that's the key
[10:20] <james296> I would really appreciate the help I dont feel like going through a system recovery just because of this...
[10:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: Effort is always appreciated..
[10:20] <hende07> its a linux game
[10:20] <hende07> ubuntu
[10:20] <Drk_Guy> Jack, thanx for your thanx
[10:20] <ralph> how can i find out where my windows is? on (hd0,?), in linux it is sda5 is it noch hd0,4?
[10:20] <Anlar> james296: you need the fonts.config file? that's what you need?
[10:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Drk_Guy: We all halp each other.. that makes it work
[10:21] <james296> yes
[10:21] <sniDe_pt2> guys, after i enabled the use of nvidia accelerated graphics driver under Restricted Drivers Manager and rebooted my laptop.. when the Ubuntu logo just finished loading .. then my screen went all black. I had to reboot and went into the recovery mode and copied the original xorg.conf back to x11 folder, now im back to step 1. anyone know whats up with that? (2nd spam message)
[10:21] <Anlar> james296: where that file is supposed to be in your system?
[10:21] <Jack_Sparrow> later.. everyone ... play nice...
[10:21] <Drk_Guy> Linux users help each other
[10:21] <skollie> hende07: difficult to say how to run it without knowing whether you already have an executable or whether you still need to configure and compile
[10:21] <Drk_Guy> c ya
[10:21] <Bill_S> Hi all! Dear community please HELP! I have NVIDIA 8600GT PCI-E video card + nvidia-glx-new package but 3D acceleration and Restricted Package Manager says there is no need for any extra drivers!?
[10:21] <hende07> how do i configure and compile???
[10:21] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I changed the kopt=root to my root partition, and kept kernel roots to my boot partition, but still nothing
[10:22] <james296> /etc/Fonts/fonts.config I think
[10:22] <Drk_Guy> Ralph?
[10:22] <ralph> yes?
[10:22] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: you need the 100 series drivers, nvidia-new is still the 97 series drivers
[10:22] <skollie> hende07: it would be best to extract it somehwre other than the desktop, because then you can see what files are in the dir
[10:22] <Anlar> james296: I don't know if it helps but I can show you mine and I shouldn't have any extra stuff installed over the default afaik
[10:22] <ralph> how can i find out where my windows is? on (hd0,?), in linux it is sda5 is it noch hd0,4., Drk_Guy?
[10:22] <babo> I'm using gparted, but I click on the sda partition and all the controls are faded. I can delete the windows partition but I can't touch the linux partition ... :-(
[10:22] <Ghoul> how can i get the latest emacs22?
[10:22] <Drk_Guy> Are you editing oyur file=
[10:22] <ralph> yes
[10:22] <RadioApeShot> Anyone know why I can't blacklist the tulip ethernet module?
[10:22] <james296> ok
[10:22] <b0ha> how can i change the firefox icon in edgy?
[10:22] <Drk_Guy> That's the prob
[10:22] <james296> well I would like how its supposed to look by default
[10:22] <danta> hende07 download the source and do ./configure  and make or make install  it's best to read the readme or install file first
[10:23] <b0ha> where is location of it?
[10:23] <RadioApeShot> I add it to my blacklist but it still loads.
[10:23] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: You still around?
[10:23] <RadioApeShot> It is driving me nuts.
[10:23] <Drk_Guy> Pelo helped me out with that
[10:23] <Ghoul> this channel is too crowded lol
[10:23] <james296> where can I go to find it?
[10:23] <danta> !install
[10:23] <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
[10:23] <Drk_Guy> But i'm not sure now
[10:23] <eloque> sup people
[10:23] <vinneh> snide
[10:23] <eloque> got back into my kde
[10:23] <zenfool> yo eloque :)
[10:23] <eloque> but its acting super homo
[10:23] <Ghoul> so, anyone that has migrated to emacs22? how have you done it?
[10:23] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: Thank you! But even if I download it directly from NVIDIA HOW do I start Ubuntu without X???
[10:23] <Ivis> Hi where i can get a transpert doc like mac os x please help me !
[10:23] <babo> anyone here used gparted successfully ?
[10:23] <tux2005> AnObfuscator: after updating kopt=root i think you also need to run grub-update before it reapplies the new settings, perhaps it'd be easiest if you pastebin your grub config?
[10:23] <Anlar> james296: http://users.jyu.fi/~miersale/fonts.conf
[10:23] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: yes
[10:23] <hende07> what?
[10:23] <zigon> Is there any way to get beryl or compiz running on a 345m ati??
[10:23] <vinneh> all you nvidia guys
[10:24] <aldin> babo, i did
[10:24] <vinneh> you should use aiglx
[10:24] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: use the recovery kernel option in GRUB
[10:24] <vinneh> use x.org
[10:24] <vinneh> and aiglx
[10:24] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: Ok, I am on the desktop, I installed openssh-server how do I identify the address on this machine?
[10:24] <vinneh> forget xgl
[10:24] <babo> aldin: any idea why it won't let me make out a new partition ?
[10:24] <vinneh> thats only for silly ati users
[10:24] <vinneh> :D
[10:24] <zigon> kk thanks
[10:24] <Ivis> Hi where i can get a transpert doc like mac os x please help me ! pleaseee
[10:24] <zenfool> s3 :|
[10:24] <skollie> hende07: try this sudo apt-get install wesnoth
[10:24] <vinneh> lvis you have a dock?
[10:24] <aldin> babo, are u using it on booted system or on live cd?
[10:24] <Ivis> nop
[10:24] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: that machine is not currently internet capable, since it can't boot fully ;)
[10:25] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: Errr hmmm. I have no options screen during bootloader time - it just ejects me directly into login screen
[10:25] <james296> Anlar, how do I fix this problem here... Fontconfig error: "~/.fonts.conf", line 2: not well-formed (invalid token)
[10:25] <noob-untu>  /msg NickServ HELP REGISTER
[10:25] <hende07> couldnt find package
[10:25] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: after posting, it will tell you to hit esc to enter the menu
[10:25] <noob-untu> whoops
[10:25] <PurpZeY_> !register | noob-untu
[10:25] <Anlar> james296: you shouldn't have any .fonts.conf in your home directory? no idea, honestly
[10:25] <ubotu> noob-untu: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[10:25] <Drk_Guy> Skollie, maybe a search with the GUI synaptic would help?
[10:25] <hende07> skollie could not find package
[10:25] <Ivis> !dock
[10:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:26] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: try something like http://www.showmyip.com/gb/ to see your real address?
[10:26] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: does your screen go black and lock up when you try to boot, or does it just kick you back into a console?
[10:26] <skollie> Drk_Guy: yes - it actually is in synaptic. I just checked
[10:26] <Drk_Guy> Ralph
[10:26] <Drk_Guy> I think i got it
[10:26] <james296> AH that did the trick!
[10:26] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: I am just trying to do it locally, will 192.168.1.x do?
[10:26] <ralph> ?, Drk_Guy?
[10:26] <skollie> hende07: use synaptic to download and install
[10:26] <RadioApeShot> Oh well
[10:26] <Drk_Guy> sudo fdisk -1
[10:26] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: yeah should
[10:26] <RadioApeShot> I admit defeat, then
[10:26] <RadioApeShot> FOR NOW
[10:26] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I'm restarting (again) into the liveCD, so I'll try to extract the grub config file
[10:27] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: Do i need to setup an account on the server or something?
[10:27] <PirateLeChuck> ok ubuntu si really rather good, 1 hour after install and i have wireless working and mostly everything else, very impressed
[10:27] <Drk_Guy> The windowze formated partition should be your Windowze partition
[10:27] <annoia> I have a Lenovo T61 laptop with an Athereos wifi card. According to a tutorial Ubuntu should have installed Madwifi by itself, and everything should work... However, it does not. How do I do this myself?
[10:27] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: yes. something username/password and file system rights to what you want to share
[10:27] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: I'm on CoreDuo - fast beast - cant see much. ASUS MB logo and BAM Ubuntu logo with orange bar below
[10:27] <hende07> i cant find it on there i searched
[10:27] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: How do I do this?
[10:27] <ralph> yes sda5, Drk_Guy but is thsi hd0,5? or hd0,4?
[10:27] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: as you have logged on somehow already, use that accoutn for testing at the beginning?
[10:27] <skollie> hende07: which ubuntu are you running?
[10:28] <Drk_Guy> Pastebin what fdiskspitted out plz
[10:28] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: I think that's a timer in your grub config file, but I guess you can't get to that right now ;)
[10:28] <hende07> feist fawn
[10:28] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: So, when I pull up the ssh I can just logon as this user...I see...OK, let me walk over to the laptop and give it a test.
[10:28] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: are you in a console, though, after your nv drivers fail you?
[10:28] <ralph> http://phpfi.com/248091 Dr`Maison
[10:28] <ralph> sry -.-
[10:28] <ralph> http://phpfi.com/248091 Drk_Guy
[10:28] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: yeah it should work, point it to for instance /home/username/ for your first test
[10:28] <Drk_Guy> Ok
[10:28] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: everything works. But need X free mode to play with NVIDIA binary driver. BTW do I have Ububtu kernel source or stripped source installed by default or I have to find it?
[10:28] <vinneh> anyone heard of synergy?
[10:28] <vinneh> man it rocks
[10:29] <skollie> hende07: strange - I just checked my synaptic and wesnoth is there. check your enabled repositories
[10:29] <progek> I cannot seem to mount my flashdrive, new laptop and for the first time ubuntu will not automount it for me. I have three usb ports and no matter which one I connect the usb flashdrive to it wont show under lsusb
[10:29] <Sh3r1ff> Anlar: why use ssh in a local network when ftp is so much faster?
[10:29] <PirateLeChuck> any way that i can set up ubuntu to see my windows shares?
[10:29] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: I think you have to pull them from apt/synaptic
[10:29] <hende07> i dont think i have universe on but i dont know how
[10:29] <Drk_Guy> It spits out that sda5 and sda2 can be the windowze partitions
[10:29] <progek> anyone know what I can try?
[10:29] <Drk_Guy> Let me think
[10:29] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: pull what? Latest drivers?
[10:30] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: not drivers, the kernel sources
[10:30] <vinneh> sharif he wants to have the illusion of a shared volume
[10:30] <Anlar> Sh3r1ff: I think it is only his first testing case at local network.. later he might move around.. it's safer to talk about ssh/sftp
[10:30] <annoia> Nevermind
[10:30] <vinneh> he doesnt want to download
[10:30] <Anlar> Sh3r1ff: but yeah, I got your point
[10:30] <skollie> hende07: in synaptic, go to settings and then repositories - enable universe
[10:30] <uncle_charlie51> My Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop will not boot after upgrading memory from 512MB to 1024MB. It works, if I reinstall old memory. Any ideas?
[10:30] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: the latest drivers aren't in official ubuntu repositories
[10:30] <ralph> Drk_Guy, it's sda5! because i mounted it
[10:30] <Drk_Guy> But sda2 doesn't mount?
[10:30] <Max01> uncle_charlie51: can you get into the bios with the new memory?
[10:30] <Drk_Guy> You are using W95, so...
[10:30] <Max01> why cant you boot?
[10:31] <Drk_Guy> LBA
[10:31] <ralph> no but on sda5 are my systemfiles
[10:31] <Drk_Guy> C'mon
[10:31] <hende07> i can find universe
[10:31] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: what name should I look for? I'm old Mandriva rider so packages names were starting with kernel------- but here after search kernel I get nothing!?
[10:31] <Drk_Guy> So, configure the menu.lst to boot on sda5
[10:31] <Anlar> Bill_S: linux*
[10:31] <uncle_charlie51> No, It won't boot at all -- lights flash for about two seconds, then it shuts down.
[10:31] <progek> Anyone have issues with mounting usb flashdrives? I'm using an hp dv6000, I had a hard time getting wireless to work (ndiswrapper) but now my usb flashdrives wont automount :(
[10:31] <Drk_Guy> I knew sda2 didn't have a chance
[10:31] <Anlar> Bill_S: welcome to the debian land, where hair splitting is the norm ;)
[10:32] <ralph> jeah, is root now hd0,5?
[10:32] <Drk_Guy> LBA in W95
[10:32] <Bill_S> Anlar: thank you!
[10:32] <hende07> skollie i cant find universe
[10:32] <skollie> hende07: you can or cannot? look at the last coumn when the repositories are displayed
[10:32] <pestilence> when you create a application launcher in the tray, is there a file generated?
[10:32] <skollie> hende07: column even
[10:32] <pestilence> i.e. can i create one by hand?
[10:32] <vinneh> heart debian
[10:32] <Sh3r1ff> Anlar: when he's ready to move, let him move to nfs ;)
[10:32] <hende07> huh
[10:32] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: have you seen this? http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490
[10:32] <PurpZeY> Anlar: As of right now, I did "File" "Add server" or "Add connection" whichever...and I have the network folder on my desktop, but I cannot seem to do anything...It asked me "this is the first time it may not be safe" and I said continue, but I can't open the folder I just get "folder is already opening you can cancel it" and I have no window open or anything.
[10:32] <Bill_S> OK I'll try to hit this invisible ESC option and be back!
[10:33] <skollie> hende07: look at the last column
[10:33] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: that will tell you roughly how to install the 100 series nvidia drivers manually
[10:33] <Anlar> Sh3r1ff: it's not the same, really. nfs is more like what you do between systems, by sysadmins.. samba and the sftp/ssh has quite different idea
[10:33] <hende07> there are no columns
[10:33] <Anlar> PurpZeY: network? entirely local?you have configuration mistake somewher I think
[10:33] <PurpZeY> Anslar: Scratch that, I think it was just taking it's time connecting.
[10:34] <Drk_Guy> C'mon Ralph!!!!
[10:34] <skollie> hende07: when you go to settings, repositories - first column is enabled, last column is section(s)
[10:34] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: Also, you can try using Envy: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html, although Envy didn't work for me
[10:34] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: thank you very much!
[10:34] <Sh3r1ff> Anlar: nfs is what he wants, he doesn't want to transfer the file, but use a remote file system, and samba is best only used between gnu/linux and windows
[10:34] <PurpZeY> Anlar: It did just ask me to login, I entered my login information for that account but I still have no folder open or anything...It may be parsing the directories or something??
[10:34] <progek> can anyone help me mounting a usb flashdrive? It wont automount on my new laptop (it automounts on any other machine I've used with Ubuntu)
[10:35] <Drk_Guy> samba is equal to NetBIOS
[10:35] <hubcap_> hi everyone
[10:35] <vinneh> dr evil
[10:35] <pestilence> is there a way to create a launcher by hand for the panel?  what will happen if i put a new .desktop file in $HOME/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers ?
[10:35] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: no problem
[10:35] <Drk_Guy> G'Luck dr_evil
[10:35] <vinneh> why dont you jsut change your sources.list
[10:35] <Anlar> Sh3r1ff: samba offers higher performance ofter than nfs, combined with bettwe security.. :) but I think ssh is nicer as it is in reality safest and also it is DUMB solution - which tend to work the best :)
[10:35] <vinneh> and dist upgrade
[10:35] <dr_evil> because the upgrade wizard recommended to upgrade
[10:36] <hubcap_> anyone know bluetooth?
[10:36] <vinneh> hmm
[10:36] <vinneh> goodluck :D
[10:36] <Sh3r1ff> Anlar: can't argue with that :p
[10:36] <hende07> sections
[10:36] <hende07> go to what now
[10:36] <hende07> but its not in the settings iits in the sidebar
[10:36] <dr_evil> vinneh I only have one bad problem with edgy eft, the samba file sharing with windows 2000 client isn't stable and dropps connections quite frequently
[10:37] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: very good reading even if it will fail on me too - I go for it!
[10:37] <Bill_S> C U soon with reports
[10:37] <skollie> hende07: that last column will show the section(s). you have to enable universe by ticking the first column in the same line
[10:37] <dr_evil> vinneh but with gutsy it's somewhat worse, can't open folders sometimes, etc.
[10:37] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Opening "networkshare" you can stop this operation by hitting cancel...But it's been doing that for at least a minute now
[10:37] <hende07> what collumms!!!
[10:38] <vinneh> really
[10:38] <vinneh> i havnt had that issue
[10:38] <ocha> while in a game, i can't use some of my hotkeys because linux uses it for some funcation, im on ubuntu 7.04
[10:38] <Anlar> PurpZeY: you got somethign wrong.. hostnames perhaps.. dns configuration..
[10:38] <skollie> hende07: what are you looking at?
[10:38] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I didn't touch any of that...I just entered the local IP.
[10:38] <hende07> package manager
[10:38] <skollie> hende07: synaptic?
[10:38] <Anlar> PurpZeY: the ip.. of the sever that has openssh-server?
[10:38] <hende07> ya
[10:39] <vinneh> mind you im not partitculary demanding when it comes to linux, i often dont notice the diference between a bug and a misconfiguration on my behalf
[10:39] <vinneh> hehe
[10:39] <emil> does anyone know how to get avahi to work under feisty? can't get it to work and can't find any solutions when i search for it :|
[10:39] <PurpZeY> Anlar: The local IP, yeah.
[10:39] <Anlar> PurpZeY: did you.. check that opensshd is running on the server?
[10:39] <hubcap_> hey guys, trying to setup an airnet usb bluetooth adapter... and i'm lost, can ne 1 help
[10:39] <PurpZeY> Anlar: No I did not, how can I do that?
[10:40] <somic> Hi all! First excuse me for my bad english because I speak french...
[10:40] <Anlar> PurpZeY: likely if you do sudo /etc/init.d/ssh and press tab, you get the right script.. and write start
[10:40] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I apologize, I am not a total noob w/ ubuntu I've just never done anything like this before.
[10:40] <Max01> ive mounted a remote windows share and the icon is on my desktop, but i cant access the files via the file system as i want to load them into gktpod
[10:40] <Anlar> PurpZeY: I'm not noob, just too drunk to e efficient :)
[10:41] <PurpZeY> Anlar: So, just the name of the script followed by start?
[10:41] <vinneh> alcoholism seems to be quite common amongst linux users
[10:41] <vinneh> coimcidence?
[10:41] <Anlar> PurpZeY: yeah! that's how init.d scripts work
[10:41] <skollie> hende07: when I open my repositories list in synaptic, i see columns - but anyway - see if you can see the universe repository and enable it
[10:41] <somic> I've a problem with my connection and then I must do a ping towards a server ... but i don't know how to ping a server by ubuntu ... can you help me ???
[10:41] <Anlar> vinneh: no, I'm just far away from my girl and lonely etc :)
[10:42] <vinneh> somix

[10:45] <MSIGuy> Anyone here have a Treo (Palm) and sync it with Linux?  What should I use?
[10:45] <Drk_Guy> PalmPilot
[10:45] <vinneh> use reiser fs or ill F***ing KILL yyou
[10:45] <vinneh> lol
[10:45] <xoqa> :P
[10:45] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: it was "fail" because it was running already :)
[10:45] <vinneh> amyone seen those tshirts
[10:45] <vinneh> lol
[10:45] <hende07> sent
[10:45] <Drk_Guy> System->Prefernces->Palm Pilot
[10:45] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: there's some other configuration issue ther eI think and others (samba/nfs) would likely fail as well :/
[10:45] <Drk_Guy> lol
[10:46] <MSIGuy> Drk_Guy: I tried that and it gave me some errors...  lol
[10:46] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: Ok, then we are back at the beginning again...Let me see if I can't get it fired up on the other machine
[10:46] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: It seems simple enough the computers share a router
[10:46] <Drk_Guy> maybe you need drivers
[10:46] <MSIGuy> Is gnome-pilot the best software to use?
[10:46] <Drk_Guy> Maybe
[10:46] <MSIGuy> Its a Treo 650 trying to sync over USB.
[10:46] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: that shouldn't be an issue, especially if you really use the internal ip addresses
[10:46] <PirateLeChuck> how do i load my bashrc when already in the os?
[10:46] <PirateLeChuck> .bashrc
[10:46] <hende07> skollie did u get it???
[10:47] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: I'll run ifconfig here again, make sure I got it right and try one more time...maybe I get lucky.
[10:47] <PirateLeChuck> i have tried ./.bashrc but get permission denied
[10:47] <skollie> sorry hende07: my firewall is blocking the download
[10:47] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: http://multifariam.net/images/menu.lst and http://multifariam.net/images/fstab
[10:47] <hende07> so dont try to send it again Skollie
[10:47] <joeamined> PirateLeChuck : you can modify it my simply opening it on a text editor like gedit
[10:48] <PurpZeY_> Anlar: I got bcast and inet, I want the inet correct?
[10:48] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: Picture of what happens when I try to boot: http://multifariam.net/images/07-07-07_1508.jpg
[10:48] <Anlar> PurpZeY_: fail?se
[10:48] <Anlar> yes
[10:48] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: picture of what happens when I try to sh ./init: http://multifariam.net/images/07-07-07_1421.jpg
[10:48] <joeamined> PirateLeChuck : .bashrc is used every time you launch your console
[10:48] <PirateLeChuck> joeamined, yes but i have updated the aliases and would now like to reload the .bashrc so that the edit takes effect in my current session
[10:48] <skollie> sorry hende07: try one more time. I will give up if it does not work
[10:48] <PirateLeChuck> joeamined, ah ok so i need to run a new console session
[10:49] <PirateLeChuck> or just log into the consoel as that user
[10:49] <joeamined> Pirate : yes, just relaunch the terminal
[10:49] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Should I point it to a particular port or folder?
[10:49] <Anlar> PurpZeY: just give the folder
[10:49] <kids> I need some advice
[10:50] <PirateLeChuck> joeamined, source .bashrc was the command i was after
[10:50] <joeamined> Pirate : the .barshrc file is relative to the user who has it in his home folder
[10:50] <kids> If Im going from U 5.10 to the latest how do I update?
[10:50] <PurpZeY> Anlar: What folder?
[10:50] <skollie> sorry hende07: file transfer not working
[10:51] <hende07> ill be right back
[10:51] <AnObfuscator> kids: are you running any restricted drivers, e,g, nvidia/ati ?
[10:51] <Anlar> PurpZeY: try the /home/whatever/ of the accout you are trying to connect to
[10:51] <kids> no I dont think so
[10:51] <AnObfuscator> kids: any special configurations?
[10:52] <kids> nope just plain jane
[10:53] <sahil_> hey can someone tell me why my thesaurus in Openoffice.org is not working?
[10:53] <eloque> i know #kubuntu is specific to Kubuntu issues but just wanted to know if somebody can help me with a problem i am having with kde?
[10:53] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Seems to be the same deal..."connecting to 192.168.1.103" but nothing is actually happening.
[10:53] <dr_willis> eloque,  depends on the problem.
[10:54] <eloque> well i log into the kubuntu login screen
[10:54] <eloque> then instead of starting kde
[10:54] <eloque> i get just a terminal window
[10:54] <eloque> with no window frames and no panel
[10:54] <MysticStar> I had to RECOVER Windows XP and now I can NOT get GRUB when I reboot
[10:54] <dr_willis> a Console window, or X and a 'xterm' window? You did try the various login sessions?
[10:54] <PurpZeY> !grub | MysticStar
[10:54] <ubotu> MysticStar: 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
[10:54] <eloque> i typed xchatinto it and it opened this client for me but i cnt resize its window nor can i move it or minimize it
[10:54] <eloque> thats besides kde not even working
[10:54] <Drk_Guy> MysticStar:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:54] <DigitalNinja> Anyone know how long upgrades to Feisty will last?
[10:55] <Max01> hi i can browse a windows share and it says its mounted and have a icon on my desktop
[10:55] <dr_willis> eloque,  odd. could do a 'sudo apt-get install icewm' and then run 'icewm' see if that kicks in the icewm window manager.. Has this system ever worked right?
[10:55] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: What is qeuivalent in Ubuntu of Mandrivas "telinit 3" ???
[10:55] <eloque> yes it worked perfectly until a few hours ago
[10:55] <AnObfuscator> init 3
[10:55] <dr_willis> eloque,  almost sounds like the kdm is defaulting to the 'failsafe' session.
[10:55] <Max01> but i cant access the files in programs
[10:55] <eloque> i was deleting some files from some mounted drives
[10:55] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it should Just Work.. you could check now /var/log/messages for weird stuff perhaps
[10:56] <MysticStar> 4 THX eloque!
[10:56] <eloque> but me being an idiot i was sudo Konqueror'ing it
[10:56] <eloque> tographically delete them
[10:56] <PurpZeY> Anlar: On the server or the client?
[10:56] <eloque> oh wait
[10:56] <eloque> u said failsafe
[10:56] <dr_willis> eloque,  Heh - now ya know why we always say dont run the gui file managers as root.. You could of deleted/moved a lot of things..
[10:56] <eloque> hmm
[10:56] <Bill_S> AnObfuscator: under su I did init 3 and nothing happened
[10:56] <eloque> i think i tried to login into the failsafe once
[10:56] <eloque> hmm
[10:56] <eloque> then i never changed it
[10:56] <dr_willis> eloque,  the kdm screen has a menu, check the menu items for the sessions, or try just typing 'startkde' in that terminal
[10:56] <Anlar> PurpZeY: server
[10:56] <eloque> lemme try that
[10:56] <DigitalNinja> Does anyone know how long "upgrades" to Feisty will last?
[10:57] <eloque> brb
[10:57] <Bill_S> 1.5 year
[10:57] <eloque> thanks doc
[10:57] <Anlar> PurpZeY: there should be some error, in case the network connectivity from theclient to server is aok

[10:58] <fisherhome> i'm having a bit of trouble finding information about memory inside this machine i'm booting from LiveCD with.. i'm inside Device Manager but can't figure out which one shows installed memory amount.. can anyone offer a tip?
[10:58] <Zelian> anyone knows how to view the beryl cube from the outside? i dont know what keys to press
[10:59] <spirit_> someone asked me in icq
[10:59] <switchcat> Greetings
[10:59] <fisherhome> i'm speaking of RAM not HDD space
[10:59] <jared_> Hello
[11:00] <Anlar> fisherhome: go to console, cat /proc/meminfo
[11:00] <imitation> Zelian: default is ctrl+alt and then drag your mouse with left mouse button pressed
[11:00] <Cromag> Zelian: http://www.beryl-project.org/userguide.php might help
[11:00] <jared_> Can anyone help me to get sound in feisty I have a audigy 2 zs
[11:00] <jepe> bonsoir  tous !
[11:00] <fisherhome> thank you
[11:00] <Cromag> !fr
[11:00] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[11:00] <Zelian> thanks both :D
[11:00] <eloque> dr_willis, that was it
[11:00] <Thuenor> evening all
[11:00] <switchcat> Q: I installed wine (0.9.33) and it showed up in my (new 7.04 install) menus.  Then I added the winehq repository so I could get the new wine package 0.9.40 and installed that, and it disappeared from my X/gnome menus.  What gives?  there was a lib that came with 0.9.33 that it said 0.9.40 didn't need. could that be it?
[11:00] <eloque> i was logging into a failsafe
[11:00] <dr_willis> eloque,  heh heh....  How embarasing!
[11:00] <mon^rch> I have a problem using acidrip! whenever I try to make the filesize bigger (for a better quality rip) the encoding process ends up making the file much smaller ie: a setting of a filesize @1024 ends up being 450MB... what am I doing wrong?
[11:01] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Nothing in there related to this at all
[11:01] <Thuenor> quick question - does anyone know if there's a known problem with printing from Feisty's PDF viewer?
[11:01] <PurpZeY> Anlar: In fact, I don't even know if the two machines ever "talked"
[11:01] <AnObfuscator> Bill_S: I can't recall, off the top of my head
[11:01] <Anlar> PurpZeY: then I think the request is not even reaching the server - that is a sign of some network related misconfiguration
[11:01] <paroxysm> is there any shortcut way of mounting an iso? perhaps by a context menu?
[11:01] <eloque> embarassing indeed
[11:01] <lufis> In Banshee, is there any way to sort the music libary by artist/album a la amarok?
[11:02] <fisherhome> so if it says 483480KB under MemTotal, that means I have almost 512MB installed usable memory right?
[11:02] <Anlar> PurpZeY: you dont have firewalls enabled doyou?
[11:02] <fisherhome> i could just open the box but that's too easy
[11:02] <Anlar> fisherhome: yes, and a intel chipset or something else hogging a little bit
[11:02] <Anlar> fisherhome: display adapter I mean
[11:02] <PurpZeY> Anlar: No, not that I am aware of. I am able to ping that IP successfully.
[11:03] <fisherhome> hehe exactly, intel P4 2.00
[11:03] <fisherhome> thanks bro
[11:03] <fisherhome> it was a freebee machine at one of my clients so i'm throwing 7.04 on it
[11:03] <Anlar> fisherhome: that'd mean i810
[11:03] <fisherhome> 512MB is plenty enough for an extra desktop w/ ubuntu
[11:03] <Anlar> sure
[11:03] <fisherhome> i810? i don't follow, sorry
[11:03] <Paranoya1> Hi
[11:04] <adamonline45> How do I make sure my .iso is good before I get it burned to CD and 'check CD for defects'?
[11:04] <PurpZeY> Anlar: The only thing I can think of, is that, since this machine is connected to a wireless Access Point as a branch of the wired router there is some problem therre
[11:04] <jared_> Hello anybody ubuntu recognizes my card I just can't get any sound
[11:04] <Anlar> fisherhome: display adapter. intel extreme something called in windows. it hogs some of the system main memory
[11:04] <tux2005> AnObfuscator: kernel		/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=/dev/mapper/nvidia_becgcffc5 ro quiet splash <---- should be: kernel		/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=/dev/mapper/nvidia_becgcffc7 ro quiet splash
[11:04] <Thuenor> fisherhome: archiecture
[11:04] <fisherhome> adamonline45: use an md5 checksum
[11:04] <Anlar> PurpZeY: I guess it is there, that ssh stuff is usually extremly foolrpoof
[11:04] <adamonline45> fisherhome: Alright, I'll check it out... ty!
[11:04] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: I'll try that
[11:05] <fisherhome> ah thanks.. i've been working on socket 939 for so long, i forgot what intel's like
[11:05] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I can't think of a decent explanation, I mean, I have a very generic type setup.
[11:05] <ruben> Hi, what is the way to pass LS_COLORS env var to a new xterm?
[11:05] <ruben>  LS_COLORS='ex=31:ln=35:or=35:mi=30:bd=46;34:cd=44;43' xterm
[11:05] <ruben> does not work for me :(
[11:05] <ruben> any idea?
[11:05] <duelboot> how can I enable auto-login on an ubuntu SERVER?
[11:05] <Thuenor> fisherhome: same here -- my replacement under warranty came back Intel :(
[11:05] <gharz> guys, i've an external hard drive and i installed one distro in it. when i checked my /boot/grub/device.map it contains only (hd0) /dev/sda... how do i include the external hard drive?
[11:05] <fisherhome> adamonline45: sure, just google "ubuntu 7.04 i386 checksum"
[11:05] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it's the wlan then I guess.. the router.. no idea why.
[11:05] <fisherhome> you'll find one right away
[11:05] <rev0> would anyone like to help with TLS on proftpd ?
[11:05] <fisherhome> Theunor: are you serious?!  they must have changed out the mobo too
[11:05] <fisherhome> that to me seems a bit over the line
[11:06] <Thuenor> fisherhome: yeah, turned out both mobo and processor were busted
[11:06] <boomshank> hay hay ppl
[11:06] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Are you particularly good with this stuff, that is, do you think if I hit up the chan about this later someone might be able to help?
[11:06] <Paranoya1> can anybody help me to set up multicast transmittion
[11:07] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it's one of the most hardened, bugless, and foolproof systems on this planet usuallly. and I'm good usually, but almost pasing out (alcohol) atm. someone else might be wiser later, yes :)
[11:07] <rev0> would anyone like to help with TLS on proftpd ?
[11:07] <boomshank> Dose UT2004 demo run on feisty ?
[11:07] <duelboot> how can I enable auto-login on an ubuntu SERVER?
[11:07] <Max01> can anyone help me on this? in ubuntu ive mapped a share on a windows pc with my mp3s. the icon on the desktop is fine and i can browse the share and copy / paste files onto the desktop etc. I CANT however go into a program and find the share to say add the files into xmms or my ipod. (ive looked under /mnt and /media) can anyone help as i dont want to drag 100gig across my network so i can play mp3s
[11:07] <Ltar> my clock won't synchronise?
[11:07] <illovae> ohayo
[11:07] <rev0> Max01 : you need to mount it
[11:07] <tux2005> auto login on a server? o_0
[11:07] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Got it...Thanks for the help. I will see if someone can't help me out a bit more later. . .
[11:07] <fisherhome> adamonline45: you'll need an md5 checksum reader though, i believe quickpar does it
[11:08] <magnetron> is there any ftp clients for ubuntu that can connect via a proxy?
[11:08] <Max01> it says it is mounted on the icon
[11:08] <Anlar> PurpZeY: you likely can't ssh (terminal session) to the other box either
[11:08] <Max01> as it says unmount
[11:08] <dr_willis> Max01,  then the 'mount' command should show where its mounted to.
[11:08] <Anlar> PurpZeY: which is quite serious
[11:08] <dr_willis> Max01,  theres
[11:08] <ewook> !screen
[11:08] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[11:08] <PurpZeY> Anlar: What do you mean by serious? And how can I test it?
[11:08] <dr_willis> Max01,  theres  browsing the shares, then theres actual mounting of the shares.   if they are mounted, 'mount' should show where.
[11:08] <Anlar> PurpZeY: ssh username@theotherbox.com
[11:08] <freebse> Max01: could also be a wrong setting, so you need to make it accessable by user
[11:09] <Frank___> Firefox is currently the default program which opens when I click on an email address on a webpage, how do i change this?
[11:09] <illovae> !larswm > illovae
[11:09] <Anlar> PurpZeY: or username@172.10.0.1  or whatever
[11:09] <adamonline45> fisherhome: Alright, the first google result for the above query recommended SummerProperties, hopefully it'll be okay...  I'll look at quickpar too...  I'm using winxp to check it... T'anks!
[11:09] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: It's checking my file systems! it seems to be booting!
[11:09] <tux2005> great :)
[11:09] <skollie> Max01: open it in your file manager and it will show you the mount point
[11:09] <duelboot> how can I enable auto-login on an ubuntu SERVER?
[11:09] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: You're  a genius, or I'm an idiot, or both!
[11:09] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I can connect via terminal
[11:09] <Ltar> I'm having trouble with my system clock. I have it set to the correct time zone, and it's configured to synchronize with internet servers- i've selected a local server. however, the current time is not 7:08 AM.
[11:10] <Max01> it just says smb://maxdata on my file browser
[11:10] <tux2005> i've been fighting with dmraid for years
[11:10] <jared__> Hi could someone help me get sound to work ubuntu recognizes my card but I don't know how to get any sound i've tried alot please help
[11:10] <Max01> its not listed in mount
[11:10] <duelboot> tux2005, yes...auto login on a server
[11:10] <Anlar> PurpZeY: wtf? then the "connect to.." and selecting "ssh" should just WORK
[11:10] <Max01> but it does say unmount on the desktop icon
[11:10] <Max01> :S
[11:10] <Anlar> PurpZeY: it's practically 110% foolproof usually
[11:10] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Ok, I give it one more shot, how do I disconnect the terminal connection?
[11:10] <AnObfuscator> tux2005: Well, I'm glad it's working finally. :) now, if I can just get the 100 series nvidia drivers to work, I'll have the prefect linux system. ;)
[11:10] <switchcat> Is there a place where a record of all previously installed (and removed) packages are kept? I did a CLI apt-get of the old 0.9.33 wine and it also installed a lib dependency.  when I upgraded to the new wine, I got rid of that lib which it didn't need, but now I can't remember the name of the lib and I wish to know.
[11:10] <Anlar> just "exit"
[11:10] <dr_willis> Max01,  using smb:\\ is NOT mounting things.. i dont care what the icon says. :)
[11:11] <Anlar> PurpZeY: if it doesn't work it's quite baffling tbh
[11:11] <dr_willis> Max01,  if it was mounted. it would appear as a normal directory
[11:11] <dr_willis>  ie: /media/yoursambashare/stuff
[11:11] <MetaMorfoziS> Hi all
[11:11] <switchcat> since it was a CLI apt-get, synaptic package manager doesn't seem to be reflecting it in it's history
[11:11] <dissection> I resized my NTFS partition from within Windows using Partition Magic, and now I have 10GB free space.. How do I now resize my Linux Parition? Can I do it while Ubuntu is running?
[11:11] <hende07> so skollie u dont have any idea how i can execute it or install it from the desktop\
[11:11] <Thuenor> max01: it is probably mounted directly from media:/
[11:12] <Max01> ok ill google how to mount it via the command line or can i do it via the gui
[11:12] <MetaMorfoziS> i have a newly installed kubuntu-feisty, and i can't setup the pppoe connection after boot. I do pppoeconf, and if i suck with killall -9 pppd and pon dsl-provider, it connects after 2-3 times... But it isn't connects after boot.
[11:12] <dr_willis> Max01,  i like to use the fusesmb (smbfuse) tools to mount my network shares automaticially
[11:12] <dr_willis> !info fusesmb
[11:12] <ubotu> fusesmb: filesystem client based on the SMB file transfer protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.5-1 (feisty), package size 26 kB, installed size 140 kB
[11:13] <tux2005> dissection: you'll probably have trouble resizing it live, ext3 file systems do support resizing while live but i think it's limited to appending
[11:13] <Thuenor> max01: or edit fstab to mount it regularly (command line: sudo gedit /etc/fstab)
[11:13] <dissection> tux2005: So what do I need to do to do it correctly?
[11:13] <PurpZeY> Anlar: I think I may be on to it....
[11:13] <Anlar> PurpZeY: yeah ?
[11:13] <skollie> hende07: I would not recommend it. Synaptic shows a whole lot of related files and manual installation probably will not work
[11:14] <tux2005> you'll probably need to move/shift partitions around, i
[11:14] <tux2005> *i've only ever done it with partitionmagic
[11:14] <skollie> hende07: I don't understand why you cannot see your repository list
[11:14] <Max01> !info fuse-utils
[11:14] <ubotu> fuse-utils: Filesystem in USErspace (utilities). In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.3-1ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 75 kB, installed size 216 kB
[11:14] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Well, this time, I set it up using my user name in the "optional area" but for some reason it is not accepting my password. I am thinking I may have somehow added a space or something on the username, going to give it another shot.
[11:14] <tux2005> you may be able to do something with LVM though (only if you are currently using LVM though)
[11:14] <MSIGuy> Has anyone had success syncing a Treo 650 and 7.04?
[11:14] <mortuis99> i need a good HTML/ text editor can anyone recommend one?
[11:15] <dr_willis> good html editor , may or may not be a good text editor. :)
[11:15] <Thuenor> hear hear
[11:15] <mortuis99> i am looking at NVU
[11:15] <AnObfuscator> mortuis99: Quanta Plus (for KDE), Nvu, Bluefish, Screem
[11:15] <arooni> whats a really light weight irc chat client
[11:15] <dr_willis> I use vi for text. :) hardkore!
[11:15] <arooni> for ubuntu
[11:15] <AnObfuscator> mortuis99: I like Screem, personally
[11:15] <dr_willis> arooni,  irssi
[11:15] <Anlar> arooni: irssi
[11:15] <dr_willis> :)
[11:16] <ianmcorvidae> I'd recommend irssi
[11:16] <ianmcorvidae> It's excellent :)
[11:16] <nihility> irssi
[11:16] <AnObfuscator> dr_willis: you're only hardcore if you use pico/nano ;-)
[11:16] <dr_willis> AnObfuscator,  nah.. thats hardnosed.
[11:16] <dr_willis> :)
[11:16] <sacater> for some strange reason my laptop cant read CD's, it could do about a week agoo
[11:16] <magnetron> what ftp client supports proxies?
[11:16] <arooni> better than xchat?
[11:16] <sacater> i get this error
[11:16] <sn0> google recommends vi style usage  http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&esrch=BetaShortcuts ;] 
[11:16] <sacater> mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[11:16] <sn0> ot , sorry
[11:16] <sacater> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so.
[11:16] <aroo> arooni: better is subjective
[11:16] <dr_willis> arooni,  depends on what you want.. you asked for LIGHT.. not full-featured
[11:17] <Sigurney> Hi, i'm new to linux and i'm trying to get VMWARE player/server installed and working. I used the synaptic package manager to install the VMWare Player and kernel modules, but there is no VMWare Server option to install that is listed (there are vmware server kernel modules to install though). Should VMWARE Server be listed in Synaptic Package Manager?... cuz that's what i've been led to believe thus far. If I use Applications > add/remove 
[11:17] <dr_willis> if you want somthing similer to xchat... stick with xchat. :)
[11:17] <arooni> argh... irssii is too light weight
[11:17] <arooni> ;p
[11:17] <Thuenor> hardcore == ed
[11:17] <nihility> eyh.... if i run apt-get installl ubuntu-desktop on a xubuntu box, will it become more or less ubuntu?
[11:17] <aroo> returns false
[11:17] <dr_willis> Sigurney,  you download vmware server from the vmware site.. i dont think you wanted to have vmware player installed AND vmware server
[11:17] <stefg> !vmware | Sigurney
[11:17] <ubotu> Sigurney: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[11:17] <AnObfuscator> nihility: yeah, it should be... more or less ;)
[11:18] <Sigurney> Dr_Willis, i need vmware server in order to make a virtual machine for VMWare player to use though...
[11:18] <Sigurney> ubotu: Ok, thanks
[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ok, thanks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <Pie-rat1> I LOVE GEDIT
[11:18] <dr_willis> Sigurney,  sort of true.. but not really. :) theres ways around it.. but i always just use vmware-server.
[11:18] <sebas_> I ran automatix and noticed that asks for the root passwd like the system does, can't this method be used by a malign app pretending to be a genuine sys appto steal your root account?
[11:18] <aroo> Pie-rat1: :)
[11:18] <Pie-rat1> oops caps
[11:19] <Sigurney> dr_willis: Ok, thanks for the info :)
[11:19] <dr_willis> sebas_, automatix is best avoided. :)
[11:19] <Sh3r1ff> !automatix
[11:19] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[11:19] <dr_willis> Sigurney,  somehow.. (using linuxmint) i got vmware server In my repositories, Not surewhere its comming from) :)
[11:19] <jared__> is anyone willing to help me
[11:19] <sebas_> dr_willis, I knew that someone would come up with that, but that is not what i'm saying
[11:19] <jared__> with my sound problem
[11:19] <skollie> what do you need jared_
[11:20] <AnObfuscator> Automatix is pretty nice. :P
[11:20] <jared__> Thank you i can't get any sound
[11:20] <jared__>  and ubuntu does recognize my sound card
[11:20] <ilikec0ws> jared_, You tried the documentation on trouble shooting sound first?
[11:20] <ilikec0ws> jared_, Ahhh maybe they wont work then :)
[11:20] <sebas_> If automatix can simulate the root password ask routine, why can't any other app?
[11:20] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Same thing...I can connect via term, but not via gui
[11:20] <jared__> yes but I didn't understand somethings
[11:20] <dr_evil> fuck! neither usb mouse nor keyboard works
[11:21] <PurpZeY> !ohmy
[11:21] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:21] <Anlar> PurpZeY: I don't really understand :o
[11:21] <jared__> it's an audigy 2 zs
[11:21] <Thuenor> Does anyone have any idea why my printer works for Firefox, works for OpenOffice but doesn't work for Evolution?
[11:21] <linuxgeekery> sebas_: you mean sudo?
[11:21] <Pie-rat1> heh, running gaim over ssh -X. it goes fast!!!11
[11:21] <Anlar> Thuenor: evolution uses gnome printing where as firefox and openoffice made their own systems?
[11:21] <jared__> hello?
[11:21] <Bradf0rd> Hey ever1, how would I go about getting a list of processes in Terminal?
[11:21] <dr_willis> sebas_,  its not sumnulating.. its ust launching a script with the gksu, or whatever commands. any other app COULD do so.
[11:22] <sebas_> linuxgeekery, when I launch automatix, who is asking for the root passwd, the system or automatix itself?
[11:22] <mortuis99> i need a duplicate file finder/eliminator with a good GUI
[11:22] <linuxgeekery> Bradf0rd: all of them? ps ax
[11:22] <AnObfuscator> sebas_:  technically, it doesn't ask for the root password. it asks for your account's password,
[11:22] <mortuis99> is there one?
[11:22] <linuxgeekery> sebas_: Automatix is using the system to ask for the password
[11:22] <Max01> oot@Test:/mnt# mount //MAXDATA/Downloads /mnt/maxdata
[11:22] <Max01> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //MAXDATA/Downloads,
[11:22] <Max01> 
[11:22] <jimqode> Bradf0rd, ps -A
[11:22] <linuxgeekery> sebas_: so in a way, both
[11:22] <PurpZeY> Anlar: Well, I will have to see now if I can get to the bottom of this conundrum.
[11:22] <Thuenor> Anlar: doesn't gnome use CUPS as well? Is there a separate interface?
[11:22] <macabro22> hellp
[11:22] <macabro22> hello
[11:23] <kingof> hey
[11:23] <macabro22> Whats the compiz wallpaper plugin for?
[11:23] <sebas_> oh, then I was wrong. A program can ask the system to get root privileges, so the system asks for them, not the program
[11:23] <Max01> also errors with the - t smbfs
[11:23] <linuxgeekery> sebas_: basically
[11:23] <vinneh> my xmodmap for pointerbutton3 doesnt do anything, even though xev clearly reports the keycode and i have put entered it correctly in .xmodmap. anyone?
[11:23] <dr_willis> Thuenor,  gnome-cups-manager
[11:23] <Bradf0rd> Linuxgeekery, thx, do you know the process name for Firefox?
[11:23] <linuxgeekery> Bradf0rd: should either be firefox or firefox-bin
[11:24] <linuxgeekery> Bradf0rd: try "ps ax | grep firefox"
[11:24] <sebas_> linuxgeekery, I though that automatix was asking for the password, so I said wow, if automatix can, why can't I?
[11:24] <Thuenor> dr_willis: thanks, I'll look into that to track the problem
[11:24] <wifenfeffer> hello, I've got ubuntu running, but I've got a few unexpected partitions, and I was wondering if anyone can identify them for me
[11:24] <linuxgeekery> wifenfeffer: what are they?
[11:24] <Bradf0rd> linuxgeekery, thx so much ;)
[11:25] <Thuenor> max01: try man mount for the exact syntax
[11:25] <Thuenor> file system should be provided, as well as some other parms
[11:25] <wifenfeffer> I asked ubuntu to automatically partition and use the whole disk, but I have...  /dev/hda1 for root, and /dev/hda5 for swap.  and nothing else seems to be used, but I have an hda2 that has no filesystem, and seems full of gibberish
[11:26] <linuxgeekery> wifenfeffer: can you message me the output of "fdisk -l"?
[11:26] <demonstealer> channel name for openoffice issues?
[11:27] <MSIGuy> What's the command to use instead of makeinstall that puts a remove option in the add/remove list?  checkinstall?
[11:27] <wifenfeffer> linuxgeekery, actually, as I was selecting it, I felt stupid
[11:28] <BaD_CrC> demonstealer: #openoffice.org
[11:28] <wifenfeffer> seems hda2 is the extended partition to hold hda5, but that makes me wonder why swap is in a logical partition
[11:28] <thunder> hi, does someone know where i can get "autopoint" I need it for compiling some CVS source, sounds like something like autoconf/make
[11:28] <wifenfeffer> and where is /boot ?
[11:29] <Thuenor> wifenfeffer: not a separate partition under ubuntu
[11:29] <dubbydubby> hey anyone im using ubuntu but when i try and instal a printer the admin panel crashes
[11:29] <Skiguy> hey all - my ubuntu machines aren't registering with my linksys local DHCP tables so trying to connect vnc by hostname doesn't work. How do I get ubuntu to resolve other ubuntu machines on the local network?
[11:29] <wifenfeffer> Thuenor, why not ?  it's a security and ease of use as well as a compatibility thing....
[11:30] <sharperguy> how can Xorg be using 16% cpu time?
[11:30] <dbbolton> what is the password to run commands as root on a liveCD (feisty)?
[11:30] <Thuenor> wifenfeffer: dunno, all I know is it's not on my system (and used to be there under OpenSUSE)
[11:30] <Anlar> dbbolton: "sudo" should not ask for a password?
[11:30] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: are you using vesa drivers, perhaps?
[11:30] <gehel> dbbolton: there is no root password. Use "sudo"
[11:30] <wifenfeffer> okay, thank you for helping me solve my duh :)
[11:31] <wifenfeffer> oh, one more thing...
[11:31] <dbbolton> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo chroot '/media/disk'
[11:31] <dbbolton> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Permission denied
[11:31] <meme_> Hello, how can i find out what agp rate my card is at?
[11:31] <Max01> aaah
[11:31] <lesshaste> how do I view http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/win32/bakoma/samples/svgtour.svgz ?
[11:31] <sharperguy> AnObfuscator, no, I'm using the nvidia ones, or beryl wouldnt work
[11:31] <Max01> im gona kill ubuntu in a min
[11:31] <wifenfeffer> will pamusb be available in a repository any time in the near future ?
[11:31] <TaJMoX> sharperguy: Xorg is using so much probably because of beryl.   try using metacity and see how much it uses
[11:31] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: does your cpu usage spike, or does it stay constant?
[11:32] <sebas_> what's happening Max01
[11:32] <sharperguy> AnObfuscator, it spikes
[11:32] <dbbolton> this is kind of a big problem. because i need to reinstall grub.
[11:32] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: that's from beryl, then
[11:32] <sharperguy> TaJMoX, It never used to though, only beryl used some occasionaly
[11:32] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: when you go to use more sophisticated effects, it'll surge
[11:32] <TaJMoX> sharperguy: well when you make it use an effect like when you close a window or move a window - then it should use lots of cpu
[11:32] <Max01> cant find smbmount etc
[11:33] <wifenfeffer> it should never use lots of CPU
[11:33] <sharperguy> spinning the cube takes it to about 40%
[11:33] <TaJMoX> sharperguy: or anything that writes to the screen.
[11:33] <AnObfuscator> TaJMoX: depending on the effects enabled, Beryl actually lowered CPU usage for me
[11:33] <TaJMoX> wifenfeffer: 12%?
[11:33] <Max01> gettin mad its untrue
[11:33] <sharperguy> but it makes no sence because its meant to be using the gpu
[11:33] <Max01> stupid ubuntu
[11:33] <TaJMoX> it uses tons of cpu for me - what am i doing wrong?
[11:33] <wifenfeffer> the fact that it does is proof that it's relying on the CPU when it should be using the GPU, and shows that it is indeed still beta software.
[11:33] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: you need to use direct rendering, not in-direct rendering
[11:33] <cables> That's not true at all.
[11:33] <TaJMoX> what's GPU ?
[11:33] <XiXaQ> !repository
[11:33] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource

[11:33] <cables> It has to do numerical calculations as well as graphical calculations.
[11:34] <Thuenor> graphical processor unit
[11:34] <sharperguy> TaJMoX, the proessor on the graphics card
[11:34] <AnObfuscator> TaJMoX: what settings do you use?
[11:34] <TaJMoX> wifenfeffer: ah - yes i have to use XGL because fglrx doesn't support composites
[11:34] <Megaqwerty> TaJMoX: Grephics processing unit
[11:34] <Megaqwerty> *Graphics
[11:34] <sharperguy> I'm using the nvidia driver
[11:34] <TaJMoX> AnObfuscator: XGL  ... i can't use aiglx with the fglrx driver (ATI Mobility X1300)
[11:34] <Fezzler> I can't seem to record from my mic?  Can't figure it out.  I hear my voice out speakers.  All other sound working.  Sound recorder shows recording elapse time.  ???
[11:34] <numus> is anyone avalibel to help
[11:34] <Max01> mount -t smbfs doesnt work
[11:35] <AnObfuscator> TaJMoX: ah, I use aiglx, so YMMV (XGL had tons of java swing issues for me, that were showstopping)
[11:35] <numus> i am trying to figure out how to give me primary user on ubuntu the ability to trash things on teh desktop and save files anywhere on the drive
[11:35] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: as I said, using direct rendering will make the GPU do the work instead of your CPU.
[11:35] <wifenfeffer> okay, that was wierd
[11:35] <wifenfeffer> I tried to enable desktop effects, and the screen turned white
[11:35] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak
[11:35] <TaJMoX> AnObfuscator: yeah until ATI comes out with a driver that supports my card - I'm stuck with fglrx and XGL for beryl ...which pretty much burns a hole in my CPU and leaks memmory pretty quick
[11:35] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, except what your talking about doesn't exist get (xeglx?)
[11:35] <numus> hello?
[11:36] <wifenfeffer>  and I can't see anything, but a cursor...
[11:36] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak:
[11:36] <TaJMoX> Can't get direct rendering with XGL ....
[11:36] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: Oh, sorry I thought you were using the nVIDIA driver.
[11:36] <cables> Megaqwerty, unfortunately, nVidia GPUs have a bug called the black window bug, which forces you to use indirect rendering. It doesn't cause much of a performance hit in my experience though, the GPU is still doing most of the work.
[11:36] <VASH--SAYS> I need help overclocking my nvidia 7600
[11:36] <Fezzler> Any sound gurus?
[11:36] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, i am
[11:36] <gehel> numus: that's a pretty bad idea ... you dont want the users to be able to put files everywhere
[11:36] <Hitomaro> IndyGunFreak: are you there?
[11:36] <AnObfuscator> TaJMoX: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010380048+1305520548&Configurator=&Subcategory=48&description=&Ntk=&srchInDesc=
[11:36] <AnObfuscator> ;)
[11:37] <VASH--SAYS> Umm
[11:37] <numus> well it is just me
[11:37] <numus> and i cant delete a file on my desktop
[11:37] <wifenfeffer> numus, sudo
[11:37] <numus> it is in my /home/usr/desktop folder
[11:37] <paroxysm> when i use bchunk to convert a bin/cue into an iso, i get an iso plus a bunch of other cdr files. how do i mount all of this? or, even better, how do i convert the bin/cue into just one iso with all of these files included?
[11:37] <pjk0334> any xubuntu experts here?
[11:37] <jxi> numus: you should put your own files in your home directory, not spread it across the disk
[11:37] <numus> hmm
[11:37] <Megaqwerty> cables: I have been able to put up with the black windows bug by keeping my windows to a minimum, as the load taken off the CPU is worth it for me. However, it's your choice really.
[11:37] <mon^rch>  what is the scroll button or middle button "called" so I can map my desktop cube to it, please?
[11:37] <numus> it is in my home directory
[11:37] <sharperguy> !ask | pjk0334
[11:37] <ubotu> pjk0334: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:37] <numus> that is why it is strange
[11:37] <AnObfuscator> cables: I've noticed some rendering glitches with indirect, but I've also noticed that the black windows bug doesn't happen with >256mb of video ram
[11:37] <gehel> numus: yep, that's strange ...
[11:37] <jxi> numus: who has ownership of the file?
[11:37] <JKtheCJer> well im currently downloading feisty to reinstall, hopefully this bug is fixed in an update soon
[11:37] <wifenfeffer> pjk0334, try #xubuntu
[11:38] <pjk0334> ok, sorry, thanks
[11:38] <gehel> numus: sudo chown -R usr: /home/usr/Desktop
[11:38] <gehel> where usr is your username
[11:38] <freebse> numus: change the permissions as root and make it writeable and mod. for users
[11:38] <nikosaei> hi
[11:38] <nikosaei> from greece
[11:38] <numus> chown: `usr:': cannot get the login group of a numeric UID
[11:38] <nikosaei> can you help me?
[11:38] <nikosaei> with something?
[11:38] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, is it possible at all to get direct rendering with anything then if nvidia doesnt do it?
[11:39] <imitation> !ask | nikosaei
[11:39] <ubotu> nikosaei: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:39] <nikosaei> I want an ssh client for web page
[11:39] <numus> say would that be chmond Desktop 755
[11:39] <numus> say or 777
[11:39] <pjk0334> i dont use IRC...how do i change channels?
[11:39] <Supaplex> nikosaei: what if we say yes, and it's kinky? *laugh*
[11:39] <nikosaei> can anyone help me with this?
[11:39] <TaJMoX> pjk0334: /join #channel
[11:39] <wifenfeffer> pjk0334, /join #xubuntu
[11:39] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: nVIDIA does do it, but if you have too many windows open, the next window will be black unless you resize it to a point where it can be drawn.
[11:39] <pjk0334> thanks
[11:39] <TaJMoX> numus: 755 should be ok
[11:40] <numus> thanks
[11:40] <nikosaei> a ssh client for web page...
[11:40] <jxi> numus: what error message do you get when you try and remove it?
[11:40] <TaJMoX> numus: the first number=user second number=group third=all
[11:40] <gehel> numus: changing the file ownership would be better than change permissions ...
[11:40] <jimqode> nikosaei, http://www-h.eng.cam.ac.uk/help/pnt/mindterm/
[11:40] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, well my problem is that it's using more cpu than i would expect instead of gpu
[11:40] <Max01> i love linux but things like this is why it suxs and people go back to windows
[11:41] <nikosaei> jimqode:have you get that thing work?
[11:41] <TaJMoX> Max01: the only thing that sucks is your lack of knowledge.   linux doens't suck if you know what you're doing
[11:41] <jimqode> nikosaei, the sample on their website works
[11:41] <Megaqwerty> numus: in the future, you can give commands that require the user's name like this: sudo chown `whoami` -R /home/`whoami`/ and when they execute it, bash will substitute their username wherever it says `whoami`
[11:41] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: which card do you have, btw?
[11:42] <wifenfeffer> Megaqwerty, you should switch to dvorak
[11:42] <jimqode> nikosaei, there is also a a project called sshtools on sourceforge
[11:42] <JKtheCJer> feisty broke gps support for the earthmate LT-20 :-(
[11:42] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: changing to direct rendering will make the GPU do all the processing, as opposed to the CPU doing the work.
[11:42] <jimqode> nikosaei, http://sourceforge.net/projects/sshtools/
[11:42] <nikosaei> yes but i want to setup it in my server
[11:42] <Max01> i use linux all the time the fact it says unmount on the desktop when its not is clearly misleading and wasted a hour of my time
[11:42] <sharperguy> AnObfuscator, Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS (256MB)
[11:42] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: also, check which settings you're using.
[11:42] <AnObfuscator> sharperguy: you shouldn't have issues with the black window bug with direct rendering
[11:42] <sirus> How can I make Ubuntu 7.04 secure if i allow users on it?
[11:43] <numus> worked thanks
[11:43] <numus> Software index is broken
[11:43] <artillerytx> halla
[11:43] <numus> now i am gettign that when i attempt to update
[11:43] <jayhawk> jayhawk94
[11:43] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, how can i tell if its using direct rendering or not then (i though it did it automatically if it was available)
[11:43] <nikosaei> does anyone know if ubuntu can set up it on a compact flash?
[11:43] <JKtheCJer> ill be taking a laptop with feisty installed, how can help it survive? :-P
[11:43] <Megaqwerty> sirus: by setting what you want them to be able to do when you add them.
[11:43] <BigToe7000> hi Megaqwerty
[11:43] <BigToe7000> er
[11:43] <BigToe7000> Meglo*
[11:43] <BigToe7000> damn
[11:43] <sn0> nikosaei yea
[11:43] <BigToe7000> he's not here
[11:43] <dr_evil> interesting, grub is using the menu.lst file from the wrong partition, and was booting the wrong kernel
[11:43] <BigToe7000> >:O
[11:43] <sn0> !usb
[11:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:44] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: what are you using? Beryl or Compiz?
[11:44] <JKtheCJer> ill be taking a laptop with feisty installed to Defcon, what can i do to help it survive?
[11:44] <sharperguy> beryl
[11:44] <sn0> nikosaei check the ubuntu wiki for "booting from usb"
[11:44] <sirus> Megaqwerty: how can I do that for example no other user should be able to see another users proccesses?
[11:44] <sn0> usb/flash
[11:44] <numus> ahh sunjava was messed up
[11:44] <knightz> question how could ubuntu wouldn't auto mount the windows partition again? it just stop doing it?
[11:44] <numus> that explains it
[11:44] <Zasch> Hello. How do I make a user an admin through the command line?
[11:45] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: in the beryl-manager, you can right click, and I don't remember where it is off the top of my head...but in something like "options" you can select it
[11:45] <numus> Does anyone know what orb is on Windows.. and now if linux has anythign like it?
[11:45] <knightz> question how come ubuntu wouldn't auto mount the windows partition again? it just stop doing it?
[11:45] <TaJMoX> Zasch - sudo gedit /etc/group
[11:45] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, hmm, i already looked in there
[11:45] <Max01> smbfs: mount_data version 1919251317 is not supported wtf
[11:45] <Megaqwerty> sharperguy: not the program, the tray icon.
[11:45] <Flare183> where is the startup script for KDE at?
[11:45] <TaJMoX> Zasch: or you can use the groupadd command
[11:45] <ruben> Hi, if I have no plan to use '3d' or 'glx' in my X windows, is  a good idea to use a 'nvidia' module? or is better to use a 'nv' module?
[11:45] <jimqode> !patience | knightz
[11:45] <ubotu> knightz: 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
[11:46] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, uder renering there is options for, indirect and XGL rendering
[11:46] <TaJMoX> Zasch: sudo groupadd --help
[11:46] <sharperguy> Megaqwerty, or automatic
[11:46] <jxi> Zasch: better use the command, or "visudo". editing files directly can mess things up.
[11:46] <sirus> Megaqwerty: is there a doc i could read on this to help me out?
[11:46] <diego_> ey
[11:46] <numus> does linux have anything that a windows machine can use realvnc for?
[11:46] <dr_willis> numus, .. ugh.. vnc :)
[11:46] <LDS_Trooper> Greetings. How can I add more fonts to ubuntu?
[11:46] <Megaqwerty> numus: vncserver? it's in the repos.
[11:46] <diego_> I just installed beryl on ubuntu..the cube and effects work well but window's borders just doesnt work..help plz
[11:47] <dr_willis> numus,  thers a dozen variants of vnc. :) they are very compatiable with each other.. I suggest 'vnc4server'
[11:47] <LDS_Trooper> I was following http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/09/installing-microsoft-fonts/
[11:47] <sharperguy> diego_, have you rebooted your computer since installing?
[11:47] <nikosaei> does anyone know a chat room for embeded ubuntu?
[11:47] <robby> Hey Buntuers
[11:47] <diego_> yeah many times indeed
[11:47] <LDS_Trooper> but I cannot find ~/.fonts/
[11:47] <nikosaei> is there a ubuntu for embeded?
[11:47] <Flare183> diego:> and have you ran emerald theme manager
[11:47] <Flare183> where is the startup script for KDE at?
[11:48] <numus> repos?
[11:48] <diego_> yeah the green diamon
[11:48] <diego_> diamond
[11:48] <Megaqwerty> numus: repository. (Synaptic)
[11:48] <numus> say ahh
[11:48] <robby> You guys are my best friends
[11:48] <LDS_Trooper> fonts?
[11:48] <Flare183> yeah use that to change the window decorations
[11:48] <LDS_Trooper> XD
[11:48] <numus> well i would remove my windows xp os if linux supported orb
[11:48] <numus> kinda sad it isn't on
[11:48] <Flare183> LDS_Trooper:>KDE or GNOME?
[11:48] <dr_evil> after upgrading to feisty, /dev/sda is now /dev/sdc, and up to /dev/sdg the order is completely different
[11:49] <Megaqwerty> sirus: I'm not on ubuntu at the moment, but as for a guide, i'd look on google though.
[11:49] <practor> hello folks
[11:49] <LDS_Trooper> Ubuntu Fiesty
[11:49] <wifenfeffer> okie, do I want java 5.0 or java 6 to have Java in my browser ?
[11:49] <sirus> Megaqwerty: yeah.. thx
[11:49] <numus> is there a gue version of hamachi or does it only run in terminal
[11:49] <LDS_Trooper> Flare183, how do I check that?
[11:49] <uberushaximus> what do you think?
[11:49] <Megaqwerty> sirus: sorry I couldn't be of more help :(
[11:49] <robby> Anyone ever feel like the world does not move quick enough???
[11:49] <Nutubuntu> wifenfeffer,  java6 supposedly helps Firefox be a bit more stable
[11:49] <LDS_Trooper> Flare183, under system it has an "About Gnome" so I should assume Gnome?
[11:50] <zavarier_> ekto kto mi pomoze s instalaciou pidginu? napisalo mi toto a moc tomu nerozumiem bo po anglicky velmi dobre neviem You must have the GTK+ 2.0 development headers installed to compile Pidgin.
[11:50] <zavarier_> If you only want to build Finch then specify --disable-gtkui when running configure.
[11:50] <wifenfeffer> Nutubuntu, so which packages do I want for it ?
[11:50] <magnetron> how can i list active tcp connections?
[11:50] <Megaqwerty> I must part now, so Good Luck to everyone.
[11:50] <PurpZeY_> I am having an interesting problem with ssh. I am able to connect to my server via terminal, but unable via GUI...Anyone have any idea what might cause that?
[11:50] <numus> have to say.. ubuntu comes with a lot better games then windows
[11:50] <practor> my grub install keeps on insisting to boot the kernel with root (hd1,0) when in fact it should be hd(0,0).  how do i fix this?  at the moment i'm editing the entry when grub comes up.
[11:50] <LDS_Trooper> need help to add more fonts to Ubuntu,
[11:50] <jimqode> magnetron, netstat -n
[11:50] <PurpZeY_> !font | LDS_
[11:50] <ubotu> LDS_: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer

[11:50] <diego_> I already did change the windows decorations..rebooted and even clicked on reload..and the borders still gone
[11:51] <robby> magnetron: terminal -> netstat
[11:51] <Shiverz> numus: download Frozen Bubble it's really fun
[11:51] <magnetron> jimqode: thank you. you too, robby
[11:51] <PurpZeY_> diego_: Are you running beryl?
[11:51] <Nutubuntu> wifenfeffer,  first - that's just what I was told, so take it with a grain of salt :) - second - search aptitude or Synaptic for 'sun-java6-plugin' -- you might want the JRE also while you're there
[11:51] <VASH--SAYS> I locked a file on my desktop, how can I unlock and delete it?
[11:51] <numus> Shiverz: will do.. anyone have any tips on berly.. do i need just the 2 programs in repos
[11:51] <sharperguy> AnObfuscator / Megaqwerty , I tried "XGL" rendering and "indirect" rendering which seem to be the only options and they both produce the same results
[11:51] <diego_> yup..I can watch the cube effect..and manage windows effects tough..I see no borders on the windows
[11:52] <sirus> is grsecurity something i should be looking into?
[11:52] <robby> magnetron: no prob, i wish everything came that fast
[11:52] <PurpZeY_> diego_: Go to #beryl and ask them...This is really really common issue, they have a fix built into their channel-bot.
[11:52] <diego_> ok thx
[11:52] <scorp123> channel beryl is almost dead ... no reactions there from anyone whatsoever ...
[11:52] <jorge_> hello, I have problem with printer. Can you help me?
[11:52] <numus> what are the predefined key aliases in beryl for the cube effect
[11:52] <PurpZeY_> scorp123: That's ok, the bot still works.
[11:52] <scorp123> PurpZeY_: ok, yes ....
[11:53] <scorp123> PurpZeY_: But the funny thing is this: I wanted to tell them that their Wiki got hacked ... but OK, ... If I can't contact anyone I can't tell anyone, right? :-)  LOL.
[11:54] <jorge_> the printer is ip1600. my ubuntu is 7.04 amd64
[11:54] <strk_> what's the default root password for feisty after installation ?
[11:54] <numus> how do i setup my lexmark x1100 on ubuntu?
[11:54] <numus> it is a printer
[11:54] <robby> !I Do? | scorp123
[11:54] <scorp123> !root | strk_
[11:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i do? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:55] <ubotu> strk_: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:55] <jimqode> !printing | numus
[11:55] <ubotu> numus: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[11:55] <scorp123> robby: what was that about?
[11:55] <robby> just messing around
[11:55] <scorp123> robby: don't mess with me, ok?
[11:55] <robby> you can sometimes get ubotu to say stuff
[11:55] <sn0w> hey wondering if anyone could recommend good software for re-tagging mp3 files in gnome
[11:56] <numus> aight.. is there a wma codec to use with the music player
[11:56] <geem> hi all! i came back
[11:56] <strk_> ubotu: I'm afraid the default user is not a sudoer :)
[11:56] <Max01> why when i go to "places" then "network servers" and browse to the file share then go to "make link" does it not mount it but say its mounted on my desktop?
[11:56] <JKtheCJer> is anyone else affected by this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/111694
[11:56] <scorp123> strk_: ubotu is a bot ... :)

[11:57] <battosai> i cant get my belkin wireless to work in ubuntu or any other distro besides pclinux =( i wish i could figure out what was different about their driver or method of initiating it
[11:58] <PurpZeY_> battosai: You tried ndiswrapper?
[11:58] <gehel> JKtheCJer: I havnt used a GPS for a long time
[11:58] <jorge_> hello. who know that error? /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcnbpcmcm256
[11:58] <jorge_> I need <"lcnbpcmcm256
[11:58] <JKtheCJer> gehel: i actually bought mine because it was praised as being compatible, then i find out support broke with feisty
[11:58] <gehel> jorge_: sounds like a missing library, or a wrong LD_PATH
[11:59] <dr_willis> !find cnbpcmcm
[11:59] <ubotu> Package/file cnbpcmcm does not exist in feisty
[11:59] <jared__> Ok so I just ran alsamixer in the terminal and it's showing my onboard sound instead of my sound card how can I change this
[11:59] <dr_willis> !find  pcmcm
[11:59] <ubotu> Package/file pcmcm does not exist in feisty
[11:59] <LDS_Trooper> PurpZeY, thanks for the help with the Fonts!
[11:59] <gehel> JKtheCJer: isnt strange it doesnt work ... NEMEA is very standard ...
[12:00] <battosai> PurpZeY: yeah.  i tried everything :\
[12:00] <gehel> JKtheCJer: I've used mostly Garmin, and a few chips  ...
[12:00] <jared__> anybody know how to help me change things in the alsamixer
[12:01] <battosai> i dunno what im doing wrong.  i thought they werent supported until pclinux did it all by itself.  i dont have any real probs with pcl i just dont want to be stuck with it bc i cant figure out how to work my wireless probs out
