[12:06] <|c4|> could someone help me with getting my nvidia drivers installed?
[12:07] <intelikey> phisher1 then you need to enable the MAIN repository and update the database

[12:07] <benje> |c4|, lspci |grep VGA
[12:07] <intelikey> phisher1 unless you are using gutsy    then you should be in  #ubuntu+1
[12:08] <benje> spinexorz, it could
[12:08] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: do I need a 'composite extension'?
[12:08] <spinexorz> i hate dist upgrades ;( they make me feel uneasy...

[12:08] <intelikey> liberion ok i'll fix it.   thanks for the heads up on what to look for.
[12:08] <benje> spinexorz, remove all package you have install and put the ubuntu-desktop before doing upgrade
[12:08] <phisher1> could this be because of the lack of a certain repository or something?
[12:08] <intelikey> phisher1 then you need to enable the MAIN repository and update the database
[12:08] <rendero> !gutsy
[12:08] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[12:09] <b0ha> pastorn, plz send it on my mail, because i dont see any file transfer in xchat
[12:09] <phisher1> how do you enable the MAIN repository and update the database?
[12:09] <spinexorz> ok, htis is going to take days

[12:21] <Cyllene> Hello. I just upgraded to 7.04 from 6.10. Whenever the screensaver activates X crashes.
[12:21] <bolt> I'm typing "dpkg-reconfigure locales" but all it does is recreate en_US.UTF-8. How can I select other locales to generate?
[12:21] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, Can you login in safe mode?
[12:21] <benje> infamouskid, you have the name of where you mount it infamouskid
[12:21] <Cyllene> I have a very small backtrace.
[12:21] <Cyllene> Does anyone know what is wrong?
[12:21] <Shadow_Warrior> Justi2: you could buy an nvidia compatible... but if it's not that important...
[12:21] <compengi> EADG, i can see that, but's it's intel. weird
[12:21] <benje> i re ask again if some one know how
[12:21] <Shadow_Warrior> (a nvidia ... )
[12:21] <Fezzler_> JordanU:  I refuse to give in! :)
[12:21] <intelikey> LukeEkblad sudo mv /usr/lib/beryl/libgroup.so /root ;sudo dpkg --configure -a ;sudo apt-get install -f
[12:21] <benje> i have a problem with ati driver, all is good configured but it seems to not use the agp module for the motherboard even it's add in the modules file, config file is here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29552/ any idea ? it's said where i found information that to resolve the agp xf86_ENODEV i must load the agp module for the chipset but that doesn't resolv the problem ....
[12:21] <EADG_> compengi: do you have no acpi as a boot option?
[12:21] <EADG_> compengi: or perhaps it's not installed.
[12:22] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: I had an nvidia, but we had to get a replacement computer from dell, and they sent us one with ATI :(
[12:22] <infamouskid> benje: i dont understand what you mean?
[12:22] <Puppy_> Could someone help me, please? I am trying to add kde as a windows manager. When I installed it at the end it said: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29563/ Is this ok?
[12:22] <Shadow_Warrior> Justi2: or you could search for a way around that ati restriction..
[12:22] <compengi> EADG, let me check
[12:22] <benje> infamouskid, in linux ther no drive lettre
[12:22] <infamouskid> benje: i am trying to get wine to work with my warcraft 3 but i am stuck at the part that says you have to assign a drive letter to the dvdrom drive
[12:22] <benje> you get the name of where you mount the drive
[12:22] <Torin> anyone have got account on ubuntuforums.org ? ;] 
[12:22] <FruitieX> Puppy_: There should not be any reason to worry...
[12:22] <Jordan_U> Torin, I do, why?
[12:22] <benje> infamouskid, winecfg and configurt it here
[12:22] <Shadow_Warrior> Justi2: I hope you find a way :) Sorry if I cannot help any further.
[12:23] <LukeEkblad> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29567/ Lamego
[12:23] <atrus25> I have a sound problem. I was able to play sounds (but only through the center channel is there a way to change that?) and now it isn't working again at all. WHen I try to play songs it says the audio output is in use by another application. what did I do?
[12:23] <Puppy_> FruitieX: so I can restart and go into kde if I want?
[12:23] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: thanks for your help anyway
[12:23] <infamouskid> benje: what is the location of winecfg?
[12:23] <FruitieX> yes
[12:23] <compengi> EADG, it is
[12:23] <Puppy_> FruitieX: thanks!
[12:23] <FruitieX> Puppy_: NP
[12:23] <Fezzler_> Ok.  Safe mode.  Then what?  Here is what I think happened.  My system was running perfect for months.  I decided to try and make some screencasts for You Tube.
[12:23] <benje> infamouskid, it"s install with wine type in the console wincfg
[12:23] <FruitieX> Good luck ;)
[12:23] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: are there any other windows managers that are similar to beryl?
[12:23] <benje> winecfg infamouskid
[12:23] <FruitieX> Puppy_: wait!
[12:23] <infamouskid> benje:brb lemme try
[12:23] <Lamego> LukeEkblad, sudo apt-get remove beryl-plugins-unsupported-data beryl-plugins-unsupported-dbg
[12:23] <Shadow_Warrior> Justi2: there is Compiz.
[12:24] <FruitieX> Puppy_: you installed kubuntu-desktop, right?
[12:24] <EADG_> compengi: I would say there isn't a temp probe then.
[12:24] <Shadow_Warrior> the one that ubuntu comes with
[12:24] <Gaffaneys> yeah, i was wondering the about wine and crossing filesystems, too..  i wanted to run mirc under wine but the installation program uses the windows filesystem.  how do you install programs using windows installers under linux?
[12:24] <tupa> !register
[12:24] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[12:24] <infamouskid> benje:btw i am very impressed with linux
[12:24] <Tlink> infamouskid : winecfg is a program, just type "winecfg" at a command prompt
[12:24] <bolt> I'm typing "dpkg-reconfigure locales" but all it does is recreate en_US.UTF-8. How can I select other locales to generate?
[12:24] <Shadow_Warrior> Justi2: did you have wobbly windows when you ran ubuntu?
[12:24] <Fezzler_> I downloaded recordmydesktop.  Video capture was perfect but sound didn't record.  To fix sound, I tweaked sound setting more than I can back trace.
[12:24] <CarmenSandiego> Does dm-crypt come with Feisty Fawn? Wikipedia tells me it's in linux kernel versions 2.6 and later
[12:24] <benje> Gaffaneys, by wine
[12:24] <EADG_> compengi: does your bios report a cpu temp?
[12:24] <compengi> EADG, sure
[12:24] <infamouskid> benje:wow... ok i am looking at the cfg gui giiime a minute
[12:24] <benje> Gaffaneys, but verfify before ti work in there own site
[12:25] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: like the animation effect?
[12:25] <compengi> EADG, as every original intel motherboards do
[12:25] <Gaffaneys> well, i can run the install program, but it gets to the point where it asks where it wants to install mirc C\Program Files\Mirc    do you just type in /wherever/you/want/it   ?
[12:25] <avalon> can anyone tell me how to burn a sparseimage type disc image?
[12:25] <Fezzler_> Next thing I know the time between login and the loading of my wallpaper and theme grew longer.
[12:25] <infamouskid> benje:is win2000 emulation the best option???
[12:25] <LukeEkblad> Lamego:   dude!  thank you soooo much
[12:25] <Shadow_Warrior> Wobbly like when you move them it tends to shear to one side.
[12:25] <LukeEkblad> Lamego:  it worked!
[12:25] <EADG_> compengi: I'm stumped, but keep asking.
[12:25] <benje> Gaffaneys, to install mirc tht mean nothing :/
[12:25] <Lamego> LukeEkblad, you just need to follow the error messages ;)
[12:25] <astro76> Gaffaneys, pick the default of c:\Program Files\whatever
[12:25] <Lamego> LukeEkblad, and btw, you should not use unsupported repositories :)
[12:25] <benje> Gaffaneys, it's for prgram that you canno't found under gnu/linux
[12:26] <Tlink> infamouskid : depends on the program, but generally win2000 works well
[12:26] <Fezzler_> And next, my application menu would freeze after the use of one program.
[12:26] <compengi> EADG_, okay, thanks a lot :)
[12:26] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: I don't think so.. they are just normal windows
[12:26] <LukeEkblad> Lamego:  ok!  thanks
[12:26] <Lamego> it can break your system, really bad
[12:26] <Lamego> np :)
[12:26] <Fezzler_> Hard drive and memory tested fine.
[12:26] <EADG_> compengi: Or perhaps install a wiget/desklette  www.gnome-look.org or kde-look.org.
[12:26] <benje> to know the status see here infamouskid Gaffaneys http://winehq.org
[12:26] <LukeEkblad> Lamego:  bye the way, do you know how to get that snow affect?
[12:26] <Gaffaneys> astro76:  where does it install then? if you pick the default
[12:26] <Shadow_Warrior> Hmm, Justi2 that bad sign... try to run compiz from a terminal... and see what's the result.
[12:26] <CarmenSandiego> OK then, how do I check my linux kernel version?
[12:26] <Lamego> LukeEkblad, nope, i am not a compiz/beryl user :)
[12:26] <avalon> can anyone tell me how to burn a sparseimage type disc image?
[12:26] <Lamego> CarinArr, uname -a
[12:26] <benje> appdb on the left Gaffaneys infamouskid you will get all information
[12:26] <Lamego> on a terminal
[12:26] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, Can you login in safe mode?
[12:26] <Fezzler_> One clue is I added and played with a program/driver Avahi mDNS/DNSSD.  I think my troubles started there.
[12:27] <benje> CarmenSandiego, unamr -a
[12:27] <benje> CarmenSandiego, uname -a
[12:27] <CarmenSandiego> which one/#

[12:27] <iShock> Heya. Is there a PHP editor thats like NVU?

[12:28] <Shadow_Warrior> So Justi2 if you activate composite, no more other Gl aplications?
[12:28] <MegaNoobUbuntu> how to install a good burner with ubuntu version 7.04
[12:28] <LukeEkblad> lmae oh
[12:28] <SlimeyPete> benje: unless Justi2 switches to AIGLX... or XGL... or whicever one it is which doesn't come with Ubuntu, I think?
[12:28] <benje> Skrypt, use synaptic in gnome adept in kde
[12:28] <Jordan_U> Skrypt, Use apt-get or synaptic
[12:28] <SlimeyPete> I'm pretty sure that's what I did
[12:29] <infamouskid> benje:thanks
[12:29] <benje> SlickMcRunfast, aiglx is in fiesty
[12:29] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: yeah the 3d driver just like dies

[12:29] <karel> Hi, I'm having a problem with XGL. I'm using a Thinkpad R60 with ATI X1400 card. A gnome session works fine @ SXGA+ resolution, however, when I try to load an XGL session, the screen is really distorted (everything seems to be extremely skew, I can't read it). When I put my xorg.conf to XGA resolution the XGL session loads as it's supposed to. Anyone an idea what I can do?
[12:30] <xp_prg> I keep trying to use apt-get install to install stuff and I keep getting:  The following packages have unmet dependencies:

[12:30] <xp_prg> E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[12:30] <xp_prg> any ideas how I fix this?
[12:30] <SlimeyPete> benje: ah right. I switched to the other one and AFAIK I have dri and compositing.

[12:32] <Xsylotte> question: which anti virus for ubuntu is ok ?
[12:32] <Xsylotte> i need it also to scan my windows partitions
[12:32] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, No, failsafe session for Gnome, it's in the sessions  menu at login
[12:32] <|_ocke> Xsylotte, hehe any antivirus is for windows partitions
[12:32] <Xsylotte> and is there any solution to write into windows partitions ?
[12:32] <stufkan> avg makes antivirus for linus
[12:32] <benje> clamav ou aegis-virus-scanner but you doen't need to gnu/linux

[12:33] <ubotu> Xsylotte: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:33] <stufkan> else is clamav good
[12:33] <Jordan_U> Xsylotte, clamav
[12:33] <Xsylotte> in standard repo ?
[12:33] <|_ocke> clamav is the best
[12:33] <Junecy> Question: I have a WMV file and I need to view it. However I don't seem to have the correct player to do so can someone tell me the correc t program to use. (I am not well versed and would prefer a sudo apt-get install command if possible)
[12:33] <benje> just one thing about clamav the engine is not up to date
[12:33] <stufkan> how good is nfts-3g?
[12:33] <Shadow_Warrior> GL = GLX OpenGL, 3D Screen savers

[12:33] <stufkan> nice :D
[12:33] <stufkan> thats must be a try
[12:33] <|_ocke> stufkan, it worked for me to copy an entire HDs data
[12:34] <|_ocke> and to write it to the new drive, and no errors
[12:34] <bolt> anyone?
[12:34] <benje> no answer i return to my perl :/
[12:34] <Xsylotte> Jordan_U: can i get viruses from windows partitons ?
[12:34] <Shadow_Warrior> karel: so if you couldn't you might have the same problem as Justi2
[12:34] <Xsylotte> i know that there are few linux viruses.
[12:34] <|_ocke> Xsylotte, no, theres no such thing
[12:34] <Xsylotte> umm..
[12:35] <benje> Xsylotte, ther no linux virus
[12:35] <|_ocke> Xsylotte, theres only like 5
[12:35] <benje> only worm
[12:35] <Justi2> shadow_warrior: I also have a ati x1400
[12:35] <Xsylotte> i've read some article that there is some windows/linux virus
[12:35] <benje> from unix
[12:35] <|_ocke> Xsylotte, and tey were all created in a lab in specific conditions that will never exist on normal installations
[12:35] <|_ocke> Xsylotte, thats BS
[12:35] <Xsylotte> but it doesn't do anything dangerous so far.
[12:35] <Junecy> Any suggestions on a video player to play .wmv files?
[12:35] <Superkuh> There are multi-platform payload worms.
[12:35] <MegaNoobUbuntu> cant install it i have 5.04
[12:35] <Fezzler_> ok.  while I'm booting I have a confession.  In an attempt to fix this issue I have uninstalled and reinstalled a bunch.  X server.  Gnome-panel.  Firefox.  Office.  Media Players.  You name it.
[12:35] <benje> really read the title is linux virus but it's not virus
[12:35] <Shadow_Warrior> So it's surely the same problem :|
[12:35] <SlimeyPete> Xsylotte: there is a virus which takes advantage of OpenOffice.org on both platforms iirc
[12:35] <astro76> Junecy, totem will play it with the right codecs
[12:35] <Jordan_U> Xsylotte, That is a virus for Open Office and was only a proof of concept,
[12:35] <astro76> Junecy, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:35] <Junecy> How do I get them?
[12:35] <SlimeyPete> but it's proof-of-concept. It's not been spotted in the wild AFAIK.
[12:35] <benje> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_computer_viruses
[12:36] <Junecy> I don't know anything abouit codecs installation
[12:36] <Xsylotte> thx. i hate being newbie in linux :D
[12:36] <karel> Shadow_Warrior: well, @ XGA compiz is working, It's just SXGA+ that doesn't work, I had that with ubuntu6 too (no effects), just don't remember the fix

[12:39] <Shadow_Warrior> lol not that I did anything :)
[12:39] <Fezzler_> Jordon_U: "Could not find the gnome installation.  Running the failsafe Xterm session instead.  Ok"    Do I hit okay?
[12:39] <Jordan_U> Z4mm3rs, What problem are you having?
[12:39] <MegaNoobUbuntu> and what most i update?
[12:39] <kbrooks> hilights please
[12:39] <Z4mm3rs> the latest proprietarys can not be installed with 7.2
[12:39] <kbrooks> who hilighted me
[12:40] <Z4mm3rs> looked into downgrading but read all bad things that can happen while doing that
[12:40] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, Sure, that would explain why you are having problems though if it can't find Gnome :)
[12:40] <FruitieX> MegaNoobUbuntu: run: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and edit everything "hoary" to "feisty"
[12:40] <Junecy> Okay it set up let me test the file
[12:40] <Z4mm3rs> wondering if there is any sort of walk around to getting the drivers properly installed
[12:40] <Fezzler_> JOrdan_U: boot with Xterm then?
[12:40] <bronze> are the servers up now? Can I update ubuntu?
[12:40] <FruitieX> MegaNoobUbuntu: After this, open a terminal and write: sudo aptitude update
[12:40] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, At the failsafe terminal try running gnome-session
[12:40] <Junecy> It gives me the same error
[12:40] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, Yes
[12:40] <adaminla> is any one else getting update with warning? My update manager won't fetch.
[12:40] <Xsylotte> btw. how to update clamav ? i must be root ?
[12:40] <neverblue> difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[12:40] <FruitieX> MegaNoobUbuntu: And then sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[12:40] <Junecy> It says it's encrypted?
[12:40] <atrus25> I have a sound problem. I was able to play sounds (but only through the center channel is there a way to change that?) and now it isn't working again at all. WHen I try to play songs it says the audio output is in use by another application. what did I do?
[12:41] <FruitieX> neverblue: aptitude has a nice user interface"
[12:41] <Jordan_U> atrus, Are you using an application that uses OSS instead of ALSA?
[12:41] <EADG_> !kernal > EADG_
[12:41] <FruitieX> gn8 everyone living in europe! xD
[12:41] <FruitieX> I'd better go 2 sleep, cu all
[12:41] <Z4mm3rs> l8z
[12:41] <FruitieX> MegaNoobUbuntu: Hope you got everything I said to you
[12:42] <danny3793> hi there, im trying to use hdparm to increase my HD's performance, but when i run hdparm -i /dev/hda it tells me information about my DVD drive...
[12:42] <FruitieX> if gksudo doesn't work, try the same in a terminal but use sudo instead of gksudo. Good luck!
[12:43] <benje> bye
[12:43] <EADG_> How do I upgrade my kernal? I have 2.6.15 on Dapper.
[12:43] <atrus25> Jordan_U: how do I know that? I am playing a video in totem
[12:43] <Jordan_U> !sound | atrus
[12:43] <Fezzler_> JOrdon_U:  Ok.  Xterm has me at command prompt.  Now what?
[12:43] <ubotu> atrus: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:43] <Z4mm3rs> and if its not possible to install can anyone help me with downgrading Xorg, somewhat willing to give it a try and if I have problems would just continue to use BSD
[12:43] <atrus25> Jordan_U: the video had been working
[12:43] <Jordan_U> atrus25, See above
[12:43] <atrus25> Jordan_U:
[12:43] <atrus25> Jordan_U: I did that
[12:43] <atrus25> it had been working
[12:43] <atrus25> it just stopped
[12:43] <Pelo> EADG, kernel updates if they are available for your version will occur automaticaly
[12:44] <Jordan_U> Z4mm3rs, What problem are you having?
[12:44] <Justi2> If I plug in a tv with an s-vid cable, what are the chances of my video card drivers crashing?
[12:44] <Fezzler_> JordanU: /etc/init.d/gdm start??
[12:44] <EADG_> Pelo with apt-get?
[12:44] <atrus25> Jordan_U: I have already looked through all of that and can't figure out what is wrong
[12:44] <danny3793> anyone know why my hda is being read as my DVD drive instead of my hard drive?
[12:44] <Shadow_Warrior> kbrooks: Hello! What was that site again with the vmware files?

[12:56] <Fezzler_> Jordan_U:  While we are waiting, is something I'm going to have to "fight" is old configuration files for the same apps that have been installed, removed, etc.?
[12:56] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan: huh?
[12:56] <karel> astro76: thanks for the tip ;)
[12:56] <Gerrit> Hello, I'm looking for bittorrent-curses, but "sudo apt-file search bittorrent-curses" gives no results. Where can I find bittorrent-curses?
[12:56] <mase> so how do i safely remove an outdated kernel from grub and the system?
[12:57] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan: u mean what router?
[12:57] <Fezzler_> JordanU: How I finally got gnome-panel to stop crashing was I had to remove all the ,gnome ,gnome2 etc. config files.
[12:57] <MegaNoobUbuntu> nauritulus ofzoiets
[12:57] <Justi2> If I choose 'copy disk' in ubuntu, how 'good' will the copy be (ex. will it be able to copy a copyprotected dvd?)
[12:57] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Look in System -> Preferences -> Hardware Information and tell us what chipset your wireless card is
[12:57] <astro76> Gerrit, it's just bittorrent
[12:57] <Junecy> VLC did NOT work. :-(
[12:57] <Gerrit> astro76: The package 'bittorrent' has no such file?
[12:57] <Junecy> is there a way to update the codecs?
[12:57] <karel> MegaNoobUbuntu: see private chat
[12:57] <Jordan_U> !dvd | Justi2
[12:57] <ubotu> Justi2: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[12:57] <LordDragonSlayer> hold on i gota go check im on two diggerent comps
[12:57] <Gerrit> astro76: Then what is the equivalent of bittorrent-curses?
[12:58] <Fezzler_> Jordan_U:  Status:  "Reading the database...." are we install all of the core ubuntu apps with this?
[12:58] <skyfalcon866> will ext3 fragment fast
[12:58] <astro76> Gerrit, bittorrent - http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=bittorrent&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
[12:58] <Jordan_U> Junecy, What are you trying to play?
[12:58] <pppoe_dude> any ideas why i keep getting internal error whenever i start openoffice even after upgrading?
[12:58] <Junecy> a WMV file
[12:58] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, Yes
[12:58] <Gerrit> astro76: I have that package installed.
[12:58] <Junecy> I have trued to get the restricted extras and VLC
[12:58] <Junecy> neither worked.
[12:58] <astro76> Gerrit, it should be installed by default, yes
[12:58] <Greyscale> firefox keeps causing disk thrashing
[12:59] <Fezzler_> Jordan_U: Cool!  Square one!  We no kernel is stable.  Start over with everything else.
[12:59] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, I assumed they were removed accidentally, if you wanted them removed then we can just install Gnome
[12:59] <Gerrit> astro76: It seems bittorrent-cursus executable has a different name...
[12:59] <Gerrit> Hm, probably btdownloadcurses
[12:59] <Fezzler_> Jordan_U:  Accidentially or by someone struggle to get his system back.
[12:59] <bulltitan> i need some help with this alsa issue'
[12:59] <Jordan_U> Gerrit, rtorrent ?
[01:00] <MegaNoobUbuntu> het gaat niet
[01:00] <astro76> Gerrit, I believe the bin is btdownloadcurses, this will tell you: dpkg -L bittorrent | grep bin
[01:00] <Fezzler_> Jordan_U: Status: "Setting up gnome user guide...."
[01:00] <karel> MegaNoobUbuntu: welk os?

[01:00] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: what am i looking for in  it
[01:00] <bulltitan> i did it
[01:01] <karel> MegaNoobUbuntu: heb je al een andere brander geprobeerd?
[01:01] <Gerrit> astro76: Okay, yes.
[01:01] <bulltitan> is just that alsa is not detecting the audio card
[01:01] <mrpoundsign> hey. I have an interesting question. :) does anyone know about tuning the TCP settings on Linux to help with high-latency, high-bandwith connections? i.e. we have a 2meg remote site in Amsterdam, and we're in California. We're seeing huge differences in speed, and I am trying to figure out why. :)
[01:01] <bulltitan> latest alsa drivers where reinstalled all ok but no sound
[01:01] <Gerrit> I just got confused because I'm used to the name bittorrent-curses; it didn't occur to me why the executable wouldn't have the same name on two platforms.
[01:01] <MegaNoobUbuntu> kheb het probere te installere maar het lukt mij maar niet
[01:01] <Fezzler_> Jordan-U: Will my old files and users still be there when we are done?  Did that command wipe everything clean first?
[01:01] <Gerrit> Thanks.
[01:01] <bulltitan> it says that the sound card could not be detected
[01:01] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: you there dude?
[01:02] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Yes
[01:02] <Jordan_U> Fezzler_, No, all your config files will be the same

[01:08] <PriceChild> megaubuntunoob, de fr?
[01:08] <Junecy> I just went into synaptic and have selected to install the ENTIRE VLCPlayer program with EVERYTHING it has.
[01:09] <VacantC> so you are just trying to access photos on your camera?
[01:09] <Tlink> Anthology : will the 300D send the file through the usb?

[01:09] <Tlink> Anthology I thought the usb connection would only access the CF card in it
[01:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Anthology: does Xsane see the camera?
[01:09] <gnychis> I was able to successfully sync my pocketpc with multisync and synce, however I can't find a way to read the SD card slot and CF card slot on the pocketpc like I can do in windows... does anyone know if this is possible in linux?
[01:09] <megaubuntunoob> need a burner over here
[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Anthology: It might be able to see it as a scanner, but only a slight chance
[01:10] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: it says cisco-linksys
[01:10] <megaubuntunoob> exept for gnome baker and k3b doesnt work
[01:10] <astro76> Geoffrey2, KeePassX, nice thing about that is the file is compatible with KeePass for windows which can run on a usb drive (both can, actually)
[01:10] <Junecy>  wow this is getting me nowehere.
[01:10] <Mocheeze> I installed Ubuntu 7.04 last night, and left a fat32 partition available for windows 2k. I started the 2k install process today, but now when i try to boot up i just get a "Invalid Partition Table" message. I think I have a conflict in the MBR? I think 2k and Grub are both set to boot. How can I fix this? Can I do it with the 7.04 Live CD?
[01:10] <skull-Klown> anyone know which version i download? i have c2d e6600..do get the i386 version, or the x86 one?
[01:10] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: it says cisco-linksys
[01:11] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, OK, that is not the info I was looking for, sorry, can you pastebin the output of this command "lspci" ?
[01:11] <LordDragonSlayer> ummm ok
[01:11] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Up and running on Ubuntu!
[01:11] <Tlink> Anthology : I think I vaugely remember trying that when I got my 400D last year, and never was able to get it to work, it always wanted to go straight to the CF card
[01:11] <karel> megaubuntunoob: hoezo ze werken niet?
[01:11] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, :)
[01:12] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U:i have to go back and forth from computers so this gonna take a minute
[01:12] <astro76> Mocheeze, no, win2k will happily overwrite the mbr with it's own bootloader
[01:12] <astro76> skull-Klown, either will work
[01:12] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Now the issue I was trying to resolve before I somehow screwed up my gnome-session still exists.

[01:13] <karel> megaubuntunoob: ga naar #ubuntu-be
[01:13] <astro76> Mocheeze, so you probably have an actual partition table problem
[01:13] <Justi2> Why don't ubuntu screensavers have any adjustable settings?
[01:14] <Mocheeze> yeah
[01:14] <Geoffrey2> astro76, looks good, thanks
[01:14] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: do i have to type anything before 1s[ci because it dosent do anything if i jsut type it in to the terminal
[01:14] <astro76> skull-Klown, theoretically 64bit will be faster, I have no first-hand experience with 64bit
[01:14] <Paul^> hi there, I'm not entirely in the right place but could someone push me in the right direction? I want to set up intranet for a LAN-party, with spiffy hostnames like dc.tb.lan and such, on an ubuntu box
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> 64-bit makes things like flash a bit tricky
[01:14] <mase> so how do i safely remove an outdated kernel from grub and the system?
[01:14] <astro76> skull-Klown, at the same time I think you won't be able to use some stuff like adobe flash
[01:14] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U:1spci*
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, IIRC you can use testdisk to fix your partition table
[01:15] <astro76> skull-Klown, or google-earth, any closed-source thing compiled for i386
[01:15] <Jordan_U> Lo_Pan, "L" not 1
[01:15] <TwizzTid> buck fush
[01:15] <Jordan_U> Lo_Pan, nvm
[01:15] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, "L" not 1
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> skull-Klown: my personal experience, especially if you're new, just stick with 32bit...
[01:16] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: o alright brb then
[01:16] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Okay, back to same issue that I was struggling with.  When I first set up Ubuntu 7.04 from LiveCD, it recognized the sound
[01:16] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, It stands for list pci [ devices ] 
[01:16] <Mocheeze> thanks guys. so if I recover grub I should be OK? (and finish my 2k setup?) i'll look into testdisk too
[01:17] <astro76> Mocheeze, yeah, definitely look into testdisk first though
[01:17] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: wait what am ii looking for in this mass of text
[01:17] <Fezzler> Jordan_U:..chip on my motherboard.  Via something.  Now, ANY other setting than OSS freezes the Sound config app and that seems to freeze other running aps.
[01:17] <Paul^> hey can anyone help me with my intranet? :)
[01:17] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, I would try testdisk first, then when you are sure your partition table is good fix grub
[01:17] <skull-Klown> indygunfreak, i'm am new..but only thing i do is play games(games off of steam),and some word processing will either of the versions do that?
[01:17] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: I still content my sound set up and some thing call Avahi I messed with/installed began my troubles.
[01:17] <Mocheeze> i can see grub in my boot folder
[01:17] <Justi2> Why don't ubuntu screensavers have any adjustable settings?
[01:18] <Mocheeze> but that probably means nothing?
[01:18] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: wait what am i looking for in this mass of text
[01:18] <bruenig> Justi2, you mean xscreensaver
[01:18] <Puppy_> Could someone please help me?!?!? I loaded up synaptic and it says: You have 1 broken package on your system! Use the "Broken" filter to locate it. what is "Broken filter? can someone help me?
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> skull-Klown: i'm not 100% sure, 64bit is a different beast, and i'm not that familiar with steam
[01:18] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Whatever your wireless card is, that is why I was hoping the GUI solution would work.
[01:18] <Justi2> bruenig: what is xscreensaver
[01:18] <astro76> skull-Klown, I agree with IndyGunFreak, stick with i386
[01:18] <bruenig> Puppy_, close synaptic, run sudo apt-get install -f
[01:18] <Puppy_> bruenig: ok
[01:18] <skull-Klown> k, thx for the suggestion guys
[01:18] <younes_> kbn er karel
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> astro76: skull-Klown its just less headache
[01:18] <bruenig> Justi2, ubuntu hasn't created any screensaver applications, xscreensaver is the name of the one they use I believe
[01:19] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, You could also try googleing the model of your card to find the chipset
[01:19] <mattwalston> What seems to be working better xen or kvm?
[01:19] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Actually gnome uses gnome-screensaver now
[01:19] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: cant i just tell you...? Linksys wusb54g
[01:19] <bruenig> Jordan_U, ah well xfce which is what I always used
[01:19] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Can I run some command line or other utility to have Ubuntu re-identify my sound chips?  Have you heard of Avahi?
[01:20] <Jordan_U> bruenig, And being a Gnome app it has almost no options :)
[01:20] <astro76> Mocheeze, correct, it doesn't mean grub is installed to your mbr
[01:20] <VacantC> gui options are for windows users
[01:20] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, I thought Avahi was a networking thing
[01:20] <VacantC> this is linux
[01:20] <Puppy_> bruenig: this is what it said: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29580/
[01:21] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: cant i just tell you...? its Linksys wusb54g
[01:21] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: I'm not sure but it allways reports "Failed" when I have to reboot or restart from the command prompt
[01:21] <koshari> VaceantC , even dos had gui options, ever heard of qMenu
[01:21] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, OK, I'll try to find the chipset...
[01:21] <kbrooks> how can i chroot with all the important stuff inside the chroot? i know you have to do mount --bind magic.
[01:21] <bruenig> Puppy_, sudo dpkg -r -force-all libavahi-compat-libdnssd1
[01:21] <Anolis> xchat keeps telling me i have a pm when i come back from sleeping.... where can i view it?
[01:22] <kbrooks> !chroot
[01:22] <ubotu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[01:22] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: srry man
[01:22] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: im kinda linux retarded
[01:22] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, It's OK, we all have to start somewhere :)
[01:22] <LordDragonSlayer> :D
[01:23] <VacantC> once you learn it though...
[01:23] <Puppy_> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29581/
[01:23] <bruenig> Puppy_, sorry, forgot a dash before force-all: sudo dpkg -r --force-all libavahi-compat-libdnssd1
[01:24] <Puppy_> bruenig: it said installed.
[01:24] <bruenig> Puppy_, what
[01:25] <Puppy_> bruenig: when I did that it said installed.
[01:25] <Puppy_> sorry
[01:25] <Puppy_> wait
[01:25] <Paul^> can anyone point me in the right direction? I'd like to make spiffy domain names for my LAN intranet. like dc.tb.lan or www.tb.lan or um.. well, things like that
[01:25] <bruenig> Paul^, /etc/hosts might be what you are looking for
[01:25] <astro76> Paul^, you can add them to /etc/hosts
[01:25] <pr0nGuy> Can someone help me with a problem that I suspect has to do with Nautilus?
[01:26] <bruenig> !anyone | pr0nGuy
[01:26] <ubotu> pr0nGuy: 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?
[01:26] <Puppy_> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29583/
[01:27] <Paul^> bruenig/astro76: yes, but that's only for a local system. what I want is for other (windows) boxes to be able to reach my/other servers through these hostnames. everyone on my lan
[01:27] <bruenig> Puppy_, tru sudo dpkg --configure -a
[01:27] <Rapidwolve> can anbody donate $5 paypal
[01:27] <bruenig> Paul^, put it in their /etc/hosts
[01:27] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, It looks like the chipset is prysm54 which seems to only have open source drivers for some cards, if network-manager does not work then you will probably need to use the windows drivers with NDISwrapper
[01:28] <LordDragonSlayer> o
[01:28] <Paul^> bruenig: lol, but that's pretty unprofessional. can't I configure my dns server to-be to handle that?
[01:28] <bruenig> Paul^, yeah there probably is a better way, I don't know though
[01:28] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U:i already got the drivers of the disk
[01:28] <Mocheeze> My harddrive isn't showing up in the testdisk list. What should I do? I'm using the 7.04 live CD.
[01:28] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Does it show up in the network-manager applet at the top right of the screen?
[01:28] <Puppy_> bruenig: it is still working.
[01:28] <Paul^> bruenig: k, thx :)
[01:28] <pr0nGuy> I was messing around witht he istanbul program and then I lost all my destktop icons.  Please help.
[01:28] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: nope
[01:29] <astro76> Paul^, sure if you're running a dns server you can add them
[01:29] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, does ls ~/Desktop show them
[01:29] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, I have never used NDISwrapper myself, try installing ndis-gtk
[01:29] <kbrooks> okay
[01:29] <LordDragonSlayer> whats that
[01:29] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: i get no such file or directory.
[01:29] <Paul^> astro76: I'm stil um.. finding out how stuff works, but you'd say that would be managable on bind9?
[01:29] <LordDragonSlayer> and i heard that slowley degrades your comp
[01:30] <Anolis> How do i get the default desktop to read files from an alternative folder?
[01:30] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, that's not good
[01:30] <Junecy> Hello
[01:30] <cntrlx> I had pidgin working for a short while.  now it says segmentation fault core dumped.  How can i remove pidgin?
[01:30] <astro76> Paul^, I believe so
[01:30] <savetheWorld> Anolis: use symbolic links
[01:30] <Puppy_> bruenig: it sett up a bunch of stuff and then said: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29586/
[01:30] <Junecy> I am having trouble making a file after ./configure
[01:30] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: i was afraid of that
[01:30] <Paul^> astro76: k, awesome, then I'm gonna find out :))
[01:30] <unagi> can someone please help me with DUN and bluetooth??
[01:30] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: ummm hold on lemme check sumthing
[01:30] <savetheWorld> ln -s file_to_link_to   Name_to_have_in_desktop
[01:30] <Anolis> can i actually change the default ~/Desktop directory to something else?
[01:30] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, do mkdir ~/Desktop and then add them back
[01:30] <savetheWorld> No
[01:31] <Junecy> it says I don't have a C Compiler?
[01:31] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: I uninstalled Avahi.  Didn't seem like I needed it with samba
[01:31] <savetheWorld> do what bruenig said. :-)
[01:31] <bruenig> Anolis, no, you can symlink ~/Desktop to somewhere else
[01:31] <Mocheeze> astro76 + Jordan_U, My harddrive isn't showing up in the testdisk list. What should I do? I'm using the 7.04 live CD.
[01:31] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: alright where do i get this program
[01:31] <Anolis> *goes and recompiles gnome*
[01:31] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Back to issue of Sound configuration utility locking up and requiring force quite if any option other than OSS selected.
[01:31] <cntrlx> I had pidgin working for a short while.  now it says segmentation fault core dumped.  How can i remove pidgin?
[01:32] <bruenig> cntrlx, how did you install it
[01:32] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, You can get ndis-gtk from http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/net/ndisgtk you will probably also need ndiswrapper-utils
[01:32] <kitche> Anolis: recompiling gnome won't help you with what you want
[01:32] <cntrlx> configure and make then sudo make install
[01:32] <Puppy_> bruenig: it set up a bunch of stuff and then said: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29586/
[01:32] <Anolis> well whatever...
[01:32] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: As I said, when I first started with Ubuntu, Sound used my built-in chip set, Via...:  How can I reset all this?
[01:32] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, I assume that you can't connect to the internet with the computer that can't get wireless?
[01:32] <Junecy> What is a C Compiler?
[01:32] <kitche> Anolis: but any how someone told you how to do it also
[01:32] <bruenig> Puppy_, yeah I don't really know what you want, dpkg has some issues, sudo apt-get install -f
[01:32] <bruenig> maybe
[01:32] <unagi> anyone here know anythign about bluetooth??
[01:32] <kitche> Junecy: it's needed to compile C source code
[01:32] <unagi> or wvdial
[01:33] <cntrlx> know what i can do?
[01:33] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: I get the following output:   mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/steven/Desktop': File exists
[01:33] <Junecy> gcc-4.0?
[01:33] <bruenig> cntrlx, get the source, ./configure ; make uninstall
[01:33] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, you just said it didn't
[01:33] <Joker_-_> How comes I can't switch to 1280*1024 resolution trough the Screen Resolution control panel in Ubuntu?
[01:33] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, asoundconf maybe, you could also find out what config files alsa uses and grab the ones off the running LiveCD
[01:33] <cntrlx> and that will remove it completely?
[01:33] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, ls ~/Desktop
[01:33] <bruenig> cntrlx, yes
[01:33] <kitche> Junecy: do sudo apt-get install build-essential to get everything that you need to compile that is just the base though
[01:33] <Junecy> how do I get one installed?
[01:33] <cntrlx> ok thanks much
[01:33] <Puppy_> bruenig: I am a newbie, so I have no idea what I want... should i try sudo apt-get install -f ? if it helps at all, I just added kde as a windows manager.
[01:33] <Jordan_U> Joker_-_, What GPU ?
[01:33] <JayRoe> Hi, I've ./configured lirc, but for some reason I can't "make" it. I keep getting "No targets specified and no makefile found".
[01:34] <guest_> how can i change user permissions?
[01:34] <unagi> sigh no one knows anything about bluetooth here?
[01:34] <bruenig> Puppy_, dpkg looks like it is really screwed up
[01:34] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: yeah but ive got a thumb drive on me
[01:34] <Junecy> I guess I have one?
[01:34] <Joker_-_> NVidia GeForce 6600GT 128mb (using nvidia driver)
[01:34] <astro76> Junecy, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:34] <ghostx> guest_, read about chmod
[01:34] <Junecy> It's not saying I need to install or upgrade anything.
[01:34] <bruenig> Puppy_, did you have a power failure or something during use
[01:34] <Junecy> oh
[01:34] <ghostx> !chmod
[01:34] <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
[01:34] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Wow.  I'm game to try but not sure how.  Can I remove a sound conf. file and reboot and see what happens?
[01:34] <Puppy_> bruenig: no
[01:34] <pr0nGuy> This is my output:  steven@steven-laptop:~$ ls ~/Desktop
[01:34] <pr0nGuy> /home/steven/Desktop
[01:34] <pr0nGuy> steven@steven-laptop:~$
[01:34] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Then download the .deb files for ndiswapper-utils and ndis-gtk and put them on the thumb drive
[01:35] <guest_> i got locked out of my main account
[01:35] <bronze> are the servers up now? Can I update ubuntu?
[01:35] <pr0nGuy> did you see that bruenig
[01:35] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, ok before you said that command said it didn't exist
[01:35] <Puppy_> bruenig: the only odd thing I did was add kde as a windows manager.
[01:35] <Joker_-_> Jordan_U: NVidia GeForce 6600GT 128mb (using nvidia driver)
[01:35] <ghostx> guest_, locked?
[01:35] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, do file ~/Desktop
[01:35] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Sure, I would move rather than remove it though :)
[01:35] <guest_> i cant login
[01:35] <Junecy> this will get me the compiler I need?
[01:35] <guest_> it says there is low disc space
[01:35] <Rhynri> what program do i need for a .dar file?
[01:35] <ghostx> guest_, use root and change passewd
[01:35] <guest_> i have 120Gb of free space
[01:35] <zoidberg_> hey guys
[01:35] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: i'm not sure why i got that output.  I'm just following your directions.  Perhaps I erred.
[01:35] <guest_> use root from terminal
[01:35] <zoidberg_> i just upgraded to fesity on this laptop
[01:36] <Skwid1> hello, can anyone tell me what the line for mounting a FAT32 filesystem should be, i can never get the rights correct :(
[01:36] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: You know where these sound config file are found?
[01:36] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, do the file command
[01:36] <Jordan_U> !xconfig | Joker_-_ Try reconfiguring X

[01:36] <zoidberg_> i know that there is now just a simple package that you can download that takes care of almost all multimedia needs such as streaming flash and stuff like that
[01:36] <Superkuh> ...
[01:36] <Superkuh> Typo?
[01:36] <zoidberg_> i forget what it is though
[01:36] <Fezzler> Jordan_U: Or maybe I should give you a break and do some Googling :)
[01:36] <zoidberg_> ?
[01:36] <Junecy> Guys you are the BEST!
[01:36] <pr0nGuy> bruenig:  /home/steven/Desktop: Ogg data, Theora video
[01:36] <Junecy> I really do appreciate all your hard work getting things straightened out for me. :-)
[01:36] <Joker_-_> Jordan_U: thx
[01:36] <Puppy_> bruenig: is there anything I can do? Is my computer fried?
[01:36] <astro76> zoidberg_, ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:37] <Jordan_U> Joker_-_, np
[01:37] <JayRoe> can someone tell me what this means? "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[01:37] <Skwid1> anyone ?
[01:37] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: that is my iatanbul screencast
[01:37] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, ohhhh I see what happened. You saved the istanbul output as Desktop, that file overwrote your Desktop directory
[01:37] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, What are you trying to install?
[01:37] <Matic`Makovec> Hey, would anyone maybe know how could I get to work a certain sound codec for ventrilo?
[01:37] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: wait is .deb .debian?
[01:37] <JayRoe> jordan_U lirc
[01:37] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: oh no!
[01:37] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Yes, Ubuntu is Debian based
[01:37] <Fezzler> One last.  Now that I have reinstalled ubuntu desktop, how do I reinstall Flash for firefox?
[01:37] <Joker_-_> Jordan_U: should I pick nvidia or nv?
[01:37] <TcoUpLoad> hey someone can give me a alternative for asterisk?
[01:37] <Jordan_U> Joker_-_, nvidia
[01:38] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: o ic
[01:38] <Fezzler> Just use Synaptic to install Flash for firefox?
[01:38] <pr0nGuy> bruenig: can i do anything about it?
[01:38] <zoidberg_> thanx
[01:38] <bruenig> pr0nGuy, so you need to move that, "mv ~/Desktop ~/someothername" then do "mkdir ~/Desktop" then start readding everything
[01:38] <mdmkolbe> Does ubuntu have any way to integrate the programs that I manually compile with the installer system?  I'm looking for something that requires at little work as possible on my end.  The best case would be if I could run 'make install' under some kind of special shell that records any changes to the system so I could easily uninstall.  Also something that allows me to fulfill packages dependancies with my own built versions.
[01:38] <Skwid1> hello, can anyone tell me what the line for mounting a FAT32 filesystem should be, i can never get the rights correct :(
[01:38] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, But you can't use debian packages in Ubuntu, it is the same format but they are not always compatible
[01:38] <lamalex> anyone have any experiance with vpnc?
[01:38] <gnychis> i am trying to ./configure a program and am getting this error:  checking for pygtk-2.0... Package pygtk-2.0 was not found   ... i've installed python-gtk2 though, any other ideas?
[01:38] <Junecy> I have pittfdll how do I get gstreamer?
[01:38] <lamalex> it was working a while ago, now i can't resolve my name server
[01:38] <zoidberg_> guys is there an easy way to get a laptop with an ati card to extend the desktop by attaching an external monitor?
[01:38] <Puppy_> bruenig: is there anything I can do? Is my computer fried?
[01:38] <Junecy> I also have the w32codecs.
[01:38] <astro76> Fezzler, ubuntu-restricted-extras or just flashplugin-nonfree
[01:38] <bruenig> Puppy_, not sure
[01:38] <Joker_-_> Jordan_U: is there a way to start ubuntu in console mode just liek any other distro so that I can have full control of it (I'm a gentoo user)
[01:39] <astro76> mdmkolbe, you want chkinstall
[01:39] <lamalex> gnychis: you need the -dev version
[01:39] <Fezzler> Joker: Crtl Alt F1
[01:39] <bronze> are the servers up now? Can I update ubuntu?
[01:39] <Joker_-_> Fezzler: hahaha
[01:39] <astro76> mdmkolbe, checkinstall
[01:39] <Fezzler> Ctrl ALt F7 brings you back to gnome
[01:39] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, Have you run "sudo apt-get build-dep lirc" ?
[01:39] <Joker_-_> Fezzler: thx I know that ;)
[01:39] <kitche> bronze: check yourself but from what I rememebr they been up
[01:39] <astro76> mdmkolbe, you then basically just replace make install with checkinstall
[01:39] <unagi> anyone know anything about wvdial?
[01:39] <unagi> or bluetooth
[01:40] <Joker_-_> Fezzler: I mean starting, booting in console mode without any active X server
[01:40] <Fezzler> Joker: See what happens when a newbee thinks he knows something
[01:40] <Junecy> I'm looking in synaptic
[01:40] <kitche> Joker_-_: well you asked and you got your anwser but any how sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:40] <zoidberg_> guys is there an easy way to get a laptop with an ati card to extend the desktop by attaching an external monitor?
[01:40] <JayRoe> Jordan_U what does that do?
[01:40] <Puppy_> bruenig: you don't know how freaked out I am... what do I do? :)
[01:40] <Jordan_U> Joker_-_, Yes, you can either mess with the runlevels to keep gdm from starting at boot or just switch to another virtual terminal
[01:40] <m1r> 70mb openoffice to upgrade, huh ?
[01:40] <bruenig> Puppy_, reinstall? probably just ask someone else
[01:40] <lamalex> Joker_-_: change the run level
[01:40] <mdmkolbe> astro76: awsome.  That looks like just what I was looking for
[01:40] <Puppy_> bruenig: thanks so very much!
[01:40] <JayRoe> I can install lirc with apt-get, no problem. But I need to compile it I think, cause not all of the buttons are working, not even with irrecord.
[01:40] <lamalex> Joker_-_: you're a gentoo user, you should be able to do that ;)
[01:40] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, It grabs all of the dependencies needed to compile lirc, why are you compiling from source though?
[01:40] <Joker_-_> dont get me wrong I dont wanna be mean. I just want to have ubuntu started without any graphical interface
[01:41] <JayRoe> Jordan_U read above your message. I forgot to add your name.
[01:41] <calc> Joker_-_: you can install the server version
[01:41] <Joker_-_> lamalex: I installed Ubuntu to try it. I've been using it for 5 minutes now and I prefer to ask people before trying to mess with things.
[01:41] <JayRoe> Jordan_U only half the buttons on the hauppauge remote are working
[01:41] <calc> Joker_-_: or uninstall gdm if you still want desktop but without it autostarting
[01:42] <unagi> anyone know anything about bluetooth?
[01:42] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: i cant seem to find the .deb for ndiswrapper-util
[01:42] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, That sounds more like a configuration problem to me
[01:42] <Joker_-_> I think Imma just mess with things
[01:42] <Joker_-_> thx anyway
[01:42] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, choose a mirror: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fn%2Fndiswrapper%2Fndiswrapper-utils-1.9_1.38-1ubuntu1_i386.deb&md5sum=e8876c665294254b55b32c02f629ac78&arch=i386&type=main
[01:42] <JayRoe> Jordan_U I've tried compiling v4l-dvb, but it still only gives me half the buttons.
[01:43] <Junecy> If I reinstall gstreamer will it recognize it then?
[01:43] <Jordan_U> !compile | JayRoe
[01:43] <JayRoe> Jordan_U even evtest doesn't show the missing buttons
[01:43] <ubotu> JayRoe: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[01:43] <astro76> LordDragonSlayer, apt-cache search ndis
[01:43] <Jordan_U> astro76, He isn't connected to the internet on the PC that needs it
[01:43] <olskolirc> ?
[01:43] <astro76> ahh sorry
[01:43] <lamalex> Joker_-_: do you know how to do that?
[01:44] <Mocheeze> astro76 + Jordan_U, what am i supposed to look for in testdisk?
[01:44] <lamalex> Joker_-_: edit /etc/inittab from "id:2:initdefault" to id:3:initdefault"
[01:44] <codeyman> Anybody knows if GTop.pm is installed by the package libgtop by default?
[01:44] <astro76> Mocheeze, sorry I've yet to use testdisk
[01:44] <RGautier> Can you configure X for NOT a square window size?
[01:45] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: ok there both on the thumb drive now what?
[01:45] <Junecy> When trying to install pitfdll I keep getting the error message "checking for GST... configure: error: no GStreamer found
[01:45] <Junecy> ". How do I fix this?
[01:45] <astro76> Junecy, I installed pitfdll and it caused wmv not to play, uninstalling it fixed the problem
[01:46] <astro76> Junecy, so maybe you don't want it anyway ;)
[01:46] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Plug the thumb drive into the other PC and double click and install ndiswrapper-utils then ndis-gtk
[01:46] <lamalex> Rgautier: that's entirely possible, and common
[01:46] <Junecy> So How do I uninstall it?
[01:46] <LordDragonSlayer> ok
[01:46] <RGautier> lamalex - how
[01:46] <Junecy> Well as far as I've gotten is ./configure
[01:46] <Junecy> it won't let me make
[01:46] <unagi> i really need help with this bluetooth problem =(
[01:46] <lamalex> Rgautier: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:46] <Junecy> I'm getting a bit put off with the media capabilities of this OS.
[01:47] <Jonny|> hi
[01:47] <Puppy_> Error: "Software index is broken" Help please?
[01:47] <daveux> Can I resize my main ext2 partition while running ubuntu?
[01:47] <RGautier> Right - how do I get BOTH screen sizes at once
[01:47] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, Did you run sudo testdisk ?
[01:47] <Jonny|> can someone tell me quickly where sources.list is? i got a bad memory
[01:47] <Junecy> I have been sitting here for 2 hours trying to get one file to play and nothing is working.
[01:47] <astro76> Junecy, what are you trying to play and what's happening
[01:47] <RGautier> I don't want to choose between them
[01:47] <astro76> Junecy, you don't need to compile anything
[01:47] <RGautier> I want to use them together
[01:47] <Junecy> I am trying to play a wmv file.
[01:47] <RGautier> As one big screen
[01:47] <Mocheeze> Jordan_u: yeah, i did that and it's working fine now in that regard
[01:47] <RGautier> Dual-monitor-style
[01:47] <Junecy> I can not do it because it says it's encrypted
[01:47] <astro76> Junecy, VLC didn't work?
[01:47] <Jonny|> can someone tell me quickly where i can find sources.list? i got a bad memory
[01:47] <Junecy> I was told I need the codecs for it so I went and installed the w32codecs.
[01:48] <kitche> Jonny|: /etc/apt/
[01:48] <Jonny|> ty
[01:48] <Junecy> then I installed the pitfdll crap but can't get past the ./configure because there is no gstreamer
[01:48] <lamalex> RGautier: do you have dual monitor working currently?
[01:48] <RGautier> lamalex - I am running in VirtualBox
[01:48] <kitche> Junecy: so install gstreamer then sudo apt-get install gstreamer
[01:48] <astro76> Junecy, yes you want w32codecs, pitfdll isn't necessary, how did you install w32codecs?
[01:48] <Junecy> however when I run gst-inspect-0.10 I get 97 plugins?
[01:48] <RGautier> I don't think it supports dual-monitor
[01:48] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, Analize current structure and look for missing partitions
[01:48] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: it wont let me install them its saying dependencey not satifyibale or sumthing
[01:48] <zoidberg_> guys is there an easy way to get a laptop with an ati card to extend the desktop by attaching an external monitor?
[01:48] <lamalex> running ubuntu in vb? or windows in vb?
[01:48] <JoelR> what software can i use to convert video to .mov, because i want to put videos on my ipod?
[01:48] <RGautier> Thats why I want an unsquare screen size
[01:48] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, What dependency does it say it needs?
[01:49] <infamouskid> hi everyone
[01:49] <Junecy> wget -c http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386.deb
[01:49] <Junecy> 
[01:49] <RGautier> So I can resize the window really big and stretch it over my dual-monitor Win config
[01:49] <alecwh> I'm running Ubuntu, and I have an nVidia video card. I'm not sure if my video card driver is up to date. How do I check/upgrade?
[01:49] <astro76> JoelR, ffmpeg
[01:49] <LordDragonSlayer> lemme check
[01:49] <cerda> damb i cant get into ubuntu yet
[01:49] <Junecy> and then sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386.deb
[01:49] <Junecy> it isntalled as it should have.
[01:49] <infamouskid> can someone help me with this install i am reading instructions on a website but i am confused at one of the following steps
[01:49] <astro76> Junecy, you should only use .debs designed for ubuntu version you are running
[01:49] <cerda> it stays at the ubuntu icon with the bar going back n forth
[01:49] <Junecy> However I can't finish the pitfdll because I am being told I have no gstreamer.
[01:49] <infamouskid> alec: here type this in terminal
[01:49] <astro76> !medibuntu | Junecy
[01:49] <lamalex> RGautier: you just need to change resolutions in your xorg.conf, just make a backup and look around in there
[01:49] <ubotu> Junecy: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[01:50] <astro76> Junecy, w32codecs and libdvdcss2 are in medibuntu
[01:50] <m1r> joker_-_ , use ubuntu server ?
[01:50] <Junecy> how do I manually install it? I figure if I do that then I can overwrite anything that I may have screwed up or whatever.
[01:50] <infamouskid> alec:Install Latest nvidia drivers in Ubuntu Feisty
[01:50] <infamouskid> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:50] <infamouskid> sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite
[01:50] <infamouskid> Now you need to restart your X by logging out and in or by pressing ctrl+alt+backspace
[01:50] <RGautier> Lamalex - you can only give a height and width
[01:50] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: it says it needs ndiswrapper common on one and ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[01:50] <RGautier> I need the screen to have two heights
[01:50] <Junecy> I don't know what that means?
[01:50] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: on the other
[01:50] <lamalex> RGautier: for each monitor
[01:50] <alecwh> Thanks infamouskid, I'll try that.
[01:50] <astro76> Junecy, follow the link, there's easy directions
[01:50] <RGautier> Right - the screen sizes are there.....
[01:50] <lamalex> RGautier: you need dual monitors working in the first place
[01:50] <cerda> so what can i do, i cant get into ubuntu, it just stays at the ubuntu icon with the loading bar
[01:50] <astro76> Junecy, to add the repository to your system
[01:50] <infamouskid> alec:your welcome man
[01:50] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Ok, grab the .deb for ndiswrapper-common
[01:50] <hoelk> anyone with xubuntu here?
[01:50] <RGautier> So how do I get that working under VirtualBox
[01:51] <hoelk> whats the command of the "open terminal here" thunar action
[01:51] <hoelk> ?
[01:51] <lamalex> RGautier: Dual monitor entries look like "1024x768:1280x1024"
[01:51] <Junecy> Okay two things...how do i do this legally and what is the link of the site you want me to view?
[01:51] <infamouskid> ok so can someone look at these instructions and tell me what i am doing wrong?
[01:51] <astro76> !medibuntu | Junecy
[01:51] <ubotu> Junecy: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[01:51] <alecwh> infamouskid, it says "nvidia-glx is already the newest version".

[01:51] <cerda> so wat can i do????????????
[01:51] <infamouskid> alec:then your all set
[01:51] <lamalex> Rgautier: that should give you what you're looking for, if you don't have dual monitors already that's where you need to start
[01:52] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: alrighty
[01:52] <RGautier> If you sent me PM I didnt get it
[01:52] <Junecy> I don't know how to access !medibuntu
[01:52] <Junecy> and that site isn't much help since I have no idea where to go.
[01:52] <astro76> Junecy, follow the link ubotu gave you
[01:52] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: here's what I get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29591/
[01:52] <alecwh> infamouskid, the problem is, I'm getting misc. problems.... Compiz is laggy, and it doesn't seem like its taking advantage of my card. I have pretty good specs, too. intel core 2 duo, 2gigs ram, nvidia 512mb video card...
[01:52] <RGautier> Using GAIM for IRC - I dont get PMs
[01:53] <RGautier> Dont know why either
[01:53] <infamouskid> alec:try editing your vid card settings

[01:53] <infamouskid> how do i edit /etc/apt/sources.list file ???
[01:53] <alecwh> ok, sudo nvidia-settings ?

[01:53] <infamouskid> alec:yes
[01:53] <alecwh> is there a specific option?
[01:53] <kitche> RGautier: well on frenode you need to be registered and identify
[01:53] <borgista> infamouskid: try 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[01:53] <lamalex> RGautier: file a bug report, you shoulld be
[01:53] <kbrooks> RGautier, not gaim, freenode
[01:53] <RGautier> I am identified

[01:54] <kbrooks> lamalex, it is the server
[01:54] <advoc8> kitche, to post a link you dont ?
[01:54] <RGautier> and registered with Nickserv
[01:54] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U:will that be solved by doing that

[01:54] <kitche> advoc8: to pm you do
[01:54] <infamouskid> borgista:thanks alot

[01:55] <astro76> Junecy, sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[01:55] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: part deux: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29593/
[01:55] <RGautier> privacy on worked
[01:55] <cerda> so can somone help?
[01:55] <Junecy> it says I have the newest version already.
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> cerda: there's a way to do that, i done it on my laptop, i just can't remember what i did.
[01:56] <infamouskid> alecwh:mainly you want to make sure gl speeds are at max
[01:56] <Robbie1490> i like beans
[01:56] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, That will give you a program that will let you install your windows drivers
[01:56] <N00basaraus> Robbie hates black people.
[01:56] <astro76> Junecy, hm you might want to uninstall the one you installed earlier first
[01:56] <Junecy> how do I do that?
[01:56] <alecwh> I'm having a weird problem... I have pretty good specs, high end processor, OK processor... and things just seem... laggy. Like, booting up takes FOREVER, opening an app takes about 5 seconds (which is slow compared to windows). Any ideas?
[01:56] <astro76> Junecy, with dpkg --remove
[01:56] <alecwh> infamouskid, I'm sorry, but where would that optin be?
[01:57] <Robbie1490> i like guys
[01:57] <cerda> hmmmmmmmm, letme ask again
[01:57] <nextse7en> Hi folks, When I plug us my photosmart card reader, and double click on the HP icon in gnome, it tells me there is no card in the drive, even though there is, could I get some troubleshooting tips?
[01:57] <cerda> so i get to the big ubuntu icon with the loading bar thing, and it just sits ther forever, what can i do?
[01:57] <ind73> Hey everybody
[01:57] <mase> so how do i safely remove an outdated kernel from grub and the system?
[01:57] <Robbie1490> no
[01:57] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, I guess that it doesn't see any problems with your partition table, what is the next screen?
[01:57] <unagi> anyone know how to get a card reader working in ubuntu?
[01:57] <advoc8> Robbie1490, read topic. /topic
[01:57] <N00basaraus> Robbie is really good with HP printers.
[01:57] <infamouskid> alecwh: hmm lemme take a look
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> nextse7en: its probably not in a file format Linux can read
[01:57] <Jordan_U> mase, apt-get remove
[01:58] <nextse7en> Indy, how would I tell it to mount FAT?
[01:58] <alecwh> thanks infamouskid. I just feel like I spent 1000 on this system, and it's not up to par, you know?
[01:58] <mase> Jordan_U,  thanks
[01:58] <Junecy> it sdays I have to specifiy the package to remove?
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> nextse7en: well, if its fat, it should read it..,
[01:58] <cerda> can it be the video card that i have?
[01:58] <nextse7en> It is fat.
[01:58] <nextse7en> lol
[01:58] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: ok i installed them
[01:58] <nextse7en> But its says its not in the drive.
[01:58] <N00basaraus> Does Feisty Fawn read NTFS drives now? I recently noticed that it can read my external NTFS hdd.
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> actually you know what, it may not read fat
[01:59] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Ok, now there should be an "install windows drivers" or something in System -> Administration
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> !fat | nextse7en
[01:59] <ubotu> nextse7en: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse

[01:59] <Jordan_U> N00basaraus, Yes, and it has stable write support too if you install it

[01:59] <astro76> nextse7en, have you tried configuring the printer with hp-toolbox?
[01:59] <Junecy> I'm going to give up and just use windows.
[01:59] <cerda> do you think it helps if i install an earlier version?
[01:59] <nextse7en> No, I didn't know I had such a thing.
[01:59] <N00basaraus> What do I need to do to write to it?
[02:00] <alecwh> infamouskid, things just run slow. I have a good video card, and compiz lags like crazy
[02:00] <Junecy> None of this is helping and my job depends on my graphical abilities
[02:00] <Junecy> I really appreciate the help but nothing is helping
[02:00] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, No idea, I have never used it myself, you will need the windows drivers though
[02:00] <N00basaraus> Wait, I saw your answer above. Sorryt.
[02:00] <astro76> Junecy, sudo dpkg --remove w32codecs
[02:00] <LordDragonSlayer> i have them ill go see then
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> astro76: i thought he said it was a media card reader
[02:00] <N00basaraus> Thanks.
[02:00] <alecwh> Junecy, what do you need specifically?
[02:00] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: i d9o ill go see then
[02:00] <olskolirc> ?
[02:01] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, Tell me how it goes when you are done, I am curious.
[02:01] <Junecy> # sudo dpkg -remove w32codecs

[02:01] <ind73> Need some advise,  I installed Ubuntu server for my web server.  I know have a project that i need to get the server running in production environment,  Problem is i am still learning Linux.  Should I A) Stick with Ubuntu Server B) install Ubuntu Desktop so i can at least use a GUI if i run into problems, or C) Go back to Windows2k3  I currently use Mac OS X as my primary desktop so i am fairly familure with the command line
[02:01] <Junecy> Type dpkg --license for copyright license and lack of warranty (GNU GPL) [*] .
[02:01] <Junecy> Options marked [*]  produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' !
[02:01] <Junecy> that's what I get.
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> astro76: oh, ok.
[02:01] <kitche> !paste | Junecy
[02:01] <Jordan_U> !paste > Junecy
[02:01] <ubotu> Junecy: 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)
[02:01] <astro76> Junecy, --remove not -remove
[02:01] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29595/ basically just the screen where i confirm the changes made in the last screen, and i didn't make any
[02:01] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: it it a problem that I have two partitions listed with "P" next to them?
[02:02] <Junecy> I'm really frustrated with all of this and I thank you guys for putting up with it.
[02:02] <astro76> ind73, I'd say it'd be easier for you with ubuntu-desktop
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> ind73: well thats an easy answer, if you know nothing about Linux, and you need this in a production environment, reinstall W2k3..
[02:02] <Junecy> Now about the gstreamer?
[02:02] <cerda> so can anyone help, please
[02:02] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, I think that just means primary
[02:02] <ind73> I know a bit about linux
[02:02] <alecwh> infamouskid, any ideas?
[02:02] <mdmkolbe> If I install a package with "dpkg -i" (such as one I downloaded or made with checkinstall), will apt recognize it as being able to fulfill dependancies (assuming the package has the right name)?
[02:02] <Junecy> I have it installed but when I try to play the encrypted wmv file I can't.
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> ind73: wel, then go w/ ubuntu desktop
[02:03] <Junecy> I tried to install the pitfdll and it says no gstreamer found.
[02:03] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, If you are daring let it write the new partition table
[02:03] <ind73> I think i may install Win2k3 then run ubuntu in VMware until i get the hang of it
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> ind73: but you specifically said, "i'm still learning linux"..
[02:03] <astro76> Junecy, first of all, did you say you tried vlc?
[02:03] <Ghaz> !sh
[02:03] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[02:03] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: i did it installed the driver and it says the hardware isnt there
[02:03] <ind73> Well
[02:03] <Junecy> yeah no success.
[02:03] <Junecy> it won't even open anything video
[02:03] <Ghaz> what do you do with an .sh file?
[02:03] <ind73> I run Apache, even on windows,  I use MySQL
[02:03] <ind73> i am always in the command line on my mac
[02:04] <astro76> Junecy, you said the wmv is encrypted, does that mean it's protected by drm? where's it from?
[02:04] <ind73> so basically
[02:04] <ind73> there is nothing windows that i need
[02:04] <unity> how can i enter a server of my choice as a download server for the automatic updates?
[02:04] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: thanks for helping, i've never had to deal with anything like this before :/ suggestion on what to do next?
[02:04] <Junecy> I got the file from work.
[02:04] <unity> at the moment i can only choose between several in my country
[02:04] <unity> but not add one
[02:04] <Junecy> I don't know if it's drm or not.
[02:04] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: i did it installed the driver and it says the hardware isnt there
[02:05] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, I don't know then, try asking in #ndiswrapper ( they will probably tell you to compile from source ) or go out and buy and intel card :)
[02:05] <Junecy> if it's drm I don't think there is any way to view it is there?
[02:05] <bobgill> I've just installed the nvidia-glx-new driver, how do I "activate" it ???
[02:05] <MrElendig> Junecy: WMP IN WINE
[02:05] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: okies :'( ty though
[02:05] <MrElendig> stupid capslock
[02:05] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Every drm format ever made has been broken :)
[02:05] <astro76> Junecy, yeah there's wine or vmware, unfortunately no native solutions, thanks MS
[02:05] <Junecy> How do I access WINE?
[02:06] <k_> hi there, how do i exit X server in ubuntu? i tried pkill X but it will restart X, i need to install nvidia drivers, but i have to close X first
[02:06] <astro76> Junecy, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214910
[02:06] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, np, hope you get it working
[02:06] <MrElendig> DRM is evil anyway
[02:06] <alecwh> I'm having a problem, and one I can't pin. I have fairly good system specs (see @ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29596/), and my computer just doesn't seem... up to par. I spent lots of money on this thing, and it doesn't feel like I'm getting it's potential. Compiz lags up, and Duel monitors lags up EVERYTHING. What can I do?
[02:06] <Mikeh> MrElendig wins.
[02:06] <MrElendig> you shoudn't buy DRM protected stuff
[02:06] <dimas__> gcc-3.4 - The GNU C compiler. By default Breezy installs gcc-4.0 on your system. But the current kernel is compiled with gcc-3.4. Kernel modules MUST be compiled with the same compiler version as the kernel itself, so we need the older version.
[02:07] <Jordan_U> LordDragonSlayer, And in the future try to buy supported hardware if you can
[02:07] <Jordan_U> !hardware > LordDragonSlayer
[02:07] <dimas__> this apply for feity? ( what i posted before?
[02:08] <Junecy> So how do I get WINE?
[02:08] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U: What should my next course of action be?
[02:08] <whta> any way to "officially" upgrade gaim to pidgin in feisty? through the repos, i mean
[02:08] <Belboz99> Hey all, what the heck does this mean?
[02:08] <Belboz99> dan@htpc:/var/log$ sudo modprobe nvidia
[02:08] <Belboz99> FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[02:08] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, Let it write the new partition table ( back up the old one if you have important data on this drive ) and then re-install grub
[02:08] <astro76> whta, nope
[02:08] <younghacker> can someone help me with setting up mysql?
[02:08] <unity> so does anyone know how to set a specific download source in Ubuntu? i am only able to choose between several
[02:08] <MrElendig> Junecy: you realy shudn't use drm stuff, it's evil and hurts both the consumer and the artist
[02:08] <Poromenos> how can i downgrade a package in ubuntu?
[02:08] <Poromenos> younghacker: All you need to do is "sudo aptitude install mysql"
[02:09] <xpoint> MrElendig, if DRM protected is nearly free i wont mind to have a legal copy
[02:09] <dimas__> The GNU C compiler. By default Breezy installs gcc-4.0 on your system. But the current kernel is compiled with gcc-3.4. Kernel modules MUST be compiled with the same compiler version as the kernel itself, so we need the older version.
[02:09] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U, I didn't edit any of the table, so would that accomplish anything?
[02:09] <dimas__> does this apply for feisty?
[02:09] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U, should I just reinstall grub then?
[02:09] <Rapidwolve> Does anybody need a good webhost?
[02:09] <Rapidwolve> I offer SQL databases, Email addresses, and FTP access, all unlimited.
[02:09] <Junecy> I am a Graphics Arts Talent agent working for one of the owrlds largest comic book and other graphic arts...we sometimes do animation which is what I'm trying to view
[02:09] <Belboz99> unity: if you're referring to repositories, use System -> Administration -> software sources
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, If it was messed up it might fix it
[02:09] <younghacker> ok i have the app already
[02:09] <Junecy> the stuff I am needing to look at has NOT been published in any market globally and will not be able to untill review.
[02:09] <cafuego> Rapidwolve: Please advertise elsewhere, this is a support channel.
[02:09] <Mocheeze> ok, will do
[02:09] <alecwh>  I'm having a problem, and one I can't pin. I have fairly good system specs (see @ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29596/), and my computer just doesn't seem... up to par. I spent lots of money on this thing, and it doesn't feel like I'm getting it's potential. Compiz lags up, and Duel monitors lags up EVERYTHING. I bought two screens back in my vista days, and now, I can't use one of them because it lags up my system, bad. I want to use Compiz, too..
[02:10] <younghacker> i want to configure the user accounts or is that done automatically with the install?
[02:10] <Junecy> I understand the risk I take by forcing it to play on a linux machine but I have no other aption as of yet.
[02:10] <Poromenos> alecwh: Ouch... I can't help you with that, but it's definitely a problem, my 5 year old machine runs compiz great.
[02:10] <younghacker> and i also want to use my management and query GUI tools with it
[02:10] <xpoint> Rapidwolve, no i have 360G webhost with more then one 1Gbit network, do you have more ?
[02:10] <Jordan_U> Junecy, What format is it?
[02:10] <alecwh> Rapidwolve, don't advertise here.
[02:10] <Junecy> wmv
[02:10] <Poromenos> Does anyone know how I can downgrade apache?
[02:10] <alecwh> Poromenos, that makes it a lot worse. :(
[02:10] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Have you installed w32codecs?
[02:10] <unity> thanks Belboz99
[02:10] <Junecy> that is the extension but I am not sure the format because I can't access anything that has anything to do with my file
[02:11] <Poromenos> alecwh: yeah :(
[02:11] <Junecy> Yes
[02:11] <dimas__> The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[02:11] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[02:11] <dimas__> This sets the environment variable CC, which is used in the spac5xx Makefile to select the compiler.
[02:11] <dimas__>  does anyone able to explain this to me?
[02:11] <astro76> Poromenos, what version are you looking for?
[02:11] <cntrlx> pidgin still doesnt work
[02:11] <MrElendig> xpoint: drm sucks, this is a good example. It's only posible to play it if you are running windows with wmp
[02:11] <astro76> !repeat | dimas__
[02:11] <ubotu> dimas__: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> cntrlx: what did you do wrong?
[02:11] <Poromenos> astro76: I have 2.2 and it spawns 200ish processes sometimes, crashing the box, so I think 2.1 would be good.
[02:11] <Belboz99> alecwh: you have your video card plugged into the power supply?  And are you using the right drivers for your card?  "nv" driver does not have 3D acceleration, use nvidia aka nvidia-glx in apt if you have an nvidia card
[02:11] <Mocheeze> Jordan_U, does it matter if I reboot (which testdisk says is required) before i install grub, or should I restart everything an then reinstall grub?
[02:11] <MrElendig> xpoint: and in some cases, you can't even use wmp to copy it to your mp3 player or a cd either
[02:11] <Jordan_U> Junecy, And either vlc or the plugin needed for totem ( can't remember it off hand ) ?
[02:11] <cntrlx> ok i installed it blah blah
[02:12] <LordDragonSlayer> Jordan_U: gahhhh ndiswrapper channels dead
[02:12] <Junecy> I tried VLC however it won't do anything but jsut sit there.
[02:12] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, I would reboot then install grub
[02:12] <Junecy> and I have no idea how to get the pitfdll to install.
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> cntrlx: well, sorry, i don't know what blah blah is, good luck
[02:12] <cntrlx> now i start it it just goes away and says segmentation fault core dumped and i even make uninstalled it and re sudo make install.  still have this prob
[02:12] <unity> Belboz99: after i go to software sources, if i choose "other" from the dropdown menu then I can only choose from sources rather than entering a specific one
[02:12] <alecwh> Belboz99, yeah, it's plugged in and working... I don't know if I'm using the right drivers, how do I check?
[02:12] <Junecy> Because it says I have no gstreamer which I know to be a farse
[02:12] <xpoint> MrElendig, pointless, if you can play it, you can copy it aswell :)
[02:12] <dimas__> where i can find the makefile (compile file)?
[02:12] <astro76> Poromenos, the apache package in ubuntu is 1.3.34, afaik a lot of people still use this version for that type of reason
[02:12] <Mocheeze> Thanks a lot Jordan_U, your help has been invaluable :)
[02:12] <Jordan_U> Junecy, It's just a package
[02:12] <Jordan_U> Mocheeze, np
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> cntrlx: don'tknow.
[02:13] <LordDragonSlayer> is anyone here experienced with ndiswrapper, if so plz help me!
[02:13] <cntrlx> ty anyways
[02:13] <Junecy> But I don't know how to get it to be recognized
[02:13] <bulmer> dimas__: where did you get the source from?
[02:13] <Junecy> When I go to ./compile the pitfdll it says no gstreamer and won't allow me to go furthur
[02:13] <Poromenos> astro76: Nah, there's apache2 as well, lots of people use that too...
[02:13] <unity> Belboz99: is there a way to enter one of my choice?
[02:13] <Poromenos> Is there a downgrading feature?
[02:13] <Belboz99> alecwh: look in your xorg.conf if you know you're way around the command line, otherwise, you should have an nvidia-settings tool if your card is an Nvidia based card
[02:13] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Why are you compiling from source?
[02:13] <LordDragonSlayer> is anyone here experienced with ndiswrapper, if so plz help me!
[02:14] <Junecy> Because that's what I was told to do.
[02:14] <astro76> Junecy, again there's no reason to compile pitfdll, if you really need it, it's in ubuntu repos
[02:14] <Belboz99> unity, yeah under 3rd party software, click the add button ;)
[02:14] <dimas__> bulmer from here>>>https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Spca5xx
[02:14] <astro76> Poromenos, indeed
[02:14] <MrElendig> http://www.fsf.org/campaigns/drm.html
[02:14] <alecwh> Belboz99, yes, I have an nvidia card. I've tried sudo nvidia-settings, but i don't see an option there for anything to speed my system up. I mean, I'm SICK of lagging! :(
[02:14] <kitche> !offtopic | MrElendig
[02:14] <ubotu> MrElendig: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:14] <bulmer> dimas__: if you have downloaded the tar ball from that site, it should have a Makefile in it
[02:14] <Belboz99> alecwh: type:
[02:14] <Belboz99> glxinfo | grep direct
[02:14] <Belboz99> and tell me what that says
[02:14] <Jordan_U> Junecy, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[02:14] <Poromenos> astro76: Indeed there is?
[02:15] <alecwh> direct rendering: Yes
[02:15] <dimas__> bulmer i dont understand this....hold on...yes but let me explain you this..
[02:15] <Belboz99> hmm, then it should be fine
[02:15] <alecwh> :(
[02:15] <Belboz99> what card is it?
[02:15] <alecwh> Currently, I'm using "indirect rendering" with compiz, because my computer dies with the other.
[02:15] <dimas__> bulmer i dont know the address of the file
[02:16] <alecwh> GIGABYTE GV-NX73G128D-RH GeForce 7300GS 512MB(128MB on board) GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card, Belboz99
[02:16] <Belboz99> alecwh: that would help explain the slowdown, but that leads us to another problem, what does it do when it "dies"?
[02:16] <Junecy> that didn't work.
[02:16] <Junecy> I'll wait till I'm back in the office and see if I have better luck on the Mac
[02:16] <dimas__> bulmer>>>gcc-3.4 - The GNU C compiler. By default Breezy installs gcc-4.0 on your system. But the current kernel is compiled with gcc-3.4. Kernel modules MUST be compiled with the same compiler version as the kernel itself, so we need the older version.
[02:16] <astro76> Poromenos, there's apache (1.3) and apache2 (2.2). I think it's reaching to hope that there's some regression from 2.1 to 2.2 that is causing your problem.
[02:16] <alecwh> Belboz99, that was a bad term. It's just really really slow and laggy.
[02:16] <astro76> Poromenos, unless you know otherwise
[02:16] <bulmer> dimas__: did you download the tar ball? check for the Makefile
[02:16] <alecwh> Compiz is*
[02:17] <dimas__> not yet
[02:17] <dimas__> bulmer not yet
[02:17] <Belboz99> alecwh: which method did you use for installing compiz? and have you tried Beryl?
[02:17] <Poromenos> astro76: Yes, other people have reported problems with 2.2 that I've looked, and the previous apache version worked well... I can't revert to 1.3 because half the stuff I have now wouldn't work :/
[02:17] <cntrlx> pidgin - now i start it it just goes away and says segmentation fault core dumped and i even make uninstalled it and re sudo make install.  still have this prob
[02:17] <bulmer> dimas__: well download it
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Junecy, I don't think you can play DRM'd Windows Media on a mac either :(
[02:17] <alecwh> Beryl worked great! But Compiz is way better, and I prefer it. Also, I usually needed to run Beryl in indirect rendering too.
[02:17] <Poromenos> http://forums.serverbeach.com/archive/index.php/t-2004.html is the problem
[02:17] <Junecy> then I'm screwed.
[02:17] <Poromenos> I got a load of 162 yesterday
[02:18] <alecwh> But I'm also trying to get duel screens up and running, that slows beryl up real bad. Same with compiz.
[02:18] <astro76> Poromenos, ah ok, there's really no easy way to go to 2.1, afaik
[02:18] <alecwh> in fact, it just messes everything up.
[02:18] <Poromenos> astro76: Ah :/
[02:18] <Belboz99> alecwh: turn Compiz on, then load up nvidia-settings and see if you can find your GPU core temperature
[02:18] <dimas__> bulmer>>need to understand this first
[02:18] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Run windows in a vm ?
[02:18] <Junecy> I don't know how to do that.
[02:19] <Junecy> Please instruct me.
[02:19] <alecwh> 60 degress C, Belboz99
[02:19] <dimas__> bulmer<<are you with me?
[02:19] <Belboz99> it's possible its overheading, and thus underclocking to save itself
[02:19] <Poromenos> astro76: Hmm, that guy seems to have a lot of accesses... My logs don't indicate anything like that, and besides it shouldn't violate the 10 maxservers i set, so i guess that's not the problem.
[02:19] <Belboz99> alecwh: that's not too bad
[02:19] <MajorPoopyPants> anyone here using ubuntu server?
[02:19] <alecwh> Yeah.
[02:19] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Install vmware-server from the ubuntu-commercial repository
[02:19] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: i am
[02:19] <unity> Belboz99: thanks
[02:19] <Fezzler> Had to reinstall Ubuntu desktop.  Just installed Flashplayer via Synaptic for Firefox.   Not working.  Video stream blinks and controller is centered on video image.  No sound.  Small window pops up in upper right.
[02:19] <MajorPoopyPants> how is it working out for you?
[02:19] <Belboz99> unity, no problem ;)
[02:19] <Jordan_U> !repos > Junecy
[02:19] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: I love it, it's great if you don't need the GUI.
[02:20] <alecwh> Belboz99, any other ideas?
[02:20] <MajorPoopyPants> I dont
[02:20] <Bubbafre> UH OH!
[02:20] <Bubbafre> UH OH!!!
[02:20] <alecwh> or help with duel screen specifically?
[02:20] <MajorPoopyPants> of course I could always add that later
[02:20] <future222> DCC SEND 1234567890 0 0 0
[02:20] <bulmer> dimas__: nope..please read from that site, it has the instructions on how to download and compile
[02:20] <astro76> Poromenos, sorry I've no experience with apache2
[02:20] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: Yeah, it's one apt-get
[02:20] <Jordan_U> Junecy, Then make a new virtual machine ( you will need a windows install CD )
[02:20] <Poromenos> astro76: Ah, it's okay :( Too bad this is on the server that hosts my websites :(
[02:20] <Belboz99> alecwh: I have to tell ya, I've got Beryl working flawlessly on Feisty, but any game in Cedega runs like crap, 0-5FPS :(
[02:20] <alecwh> :(
[02:20] <Bennedetto> hey, can anyone help me with an issue regarding flash, moreover my lack of sound in flash
[02:20] <MajorPoopyPants> ive got a debian install up and running, nice and solid
[02:20] <Poromenos> Belboz99: Nice definition of "flawlessly" you have there :P
[02:21] <Belboz99> alecwh: are you by chance using Ubuntu-64?
[02:21] <alecwh> No, 32.
[02:21] <Berto> Hi - I'm currently using 64-bit ubuntu with 32-bit browser and 32-bit flash.  Is there a doc on using 64-bit browser + 32-bit flash?
[02:21] <MajorPoopyPants> I really should stop being an ace-hole and count my blessings
[02:21] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: I have it running VMware with XP as well, no problems at all.
[02:21] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: Uptimes of months until I reboot because I messed something up.
[02:21] <kitche> ariel_: might want to fix your router Za----  also B|nTaRa
[02:21] <NeoGeo64> when is ubuntu getting the new kernel that was released yesterday
[02:21] <dimas__> bulmer i know but there is something they suggest for Breezy, but says it may not apply for a different version
[02:21] <Jordan_U> MajorPayne, I personally see no advantage to running Ubuntu on a server
[02:21] <kitche> NeoGeo64: never most likely unless it fixes some bugs
[02:22] <MajorPoopyPants> Poromenos, is that windows running via a vm? I would love to do that so I can use norton ghost
[02:22] <alecwh> my main concern is two screens.... I have 250 dollars worth of LCD sitting here doing nothing. :(
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants:  03:21:51 up 29 days,  1:58,  1 user,  load average: 0.41, 0.39, 0.26
[02:22] <Jordan_U> MajorPayne, Unless you are looking for Commercial support
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: yeah
[02:22] <MajorPoopyPants> is vmware free?
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> xinerama is how i got dual monitors working
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: VMware server is
[02:22] <astro76> MajorPayne, vmware player and server, not workstation
[02:22] <olskolirc> hell with vmware get virtualbox
[02:22] <Belboz99> alecwh: Gutsy Gibbon is supposed to make multiple monitors a breeze
[02:22] <Poromenos> MajorPoopyPants: Which is what i'm using
[02:22] <alecwh> !xinerama
[02:22] <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
[02:22] <bulmer> dimas__: oh well, you have to try and see if you need more
[02:22] <olskolirc> its better then vmware and its free
[02:22] <Poromenos> i don't know about better than vmware...
[02:22] <alecwh> Gusty Gibbon?
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> but i have a shatty video card, i'm soon to buy a pci-e card that is made to push dual monitors
[02:22] <MajorPoopyPants> I dont know what the difference is, but im jut trying to get ghost running
[02:22] <astro76> MajorPoopyPants, basically not the only one that let's you create machines easily
[02:22] <THJ> Folks, here's a quick question: What tool do you use to read InnoDB binary logs as generated by MySQL?
[02:23] <Jordan_U> alecwh, Next version of Ubuntu
[02:23] <dimas__> bulmer>> i have another question...hold on
[02:23] <alecwh> oh.
[02:23] <olskolirc> its nearly impossible to load vmware in ubuntu
[02:23] <MajorPayne> Jordan_U, astro76: Why you all highlighting me?
[02:23] <Poromenos> olskolirc: what are you talking about, it took me 5 minutes
[02:23] <Jordan_U> olskolirc, Works fine for me
[02:23] <alecwh> I'd like a solution until then. X|
[02:23] <Belboz99> alecwh: it's due for release on October 19th IIRC
[02:23] <Justi2> Is it possible to install quicktime using WINE?
[02:23] <astro76> MajorPayne, sorry, it's MajorPoopyPants  :p
[02:23] <Poromenos> MajorPayne: they mean MajorPoopyPants
[02:23] <olskolirc> i tried and tired
[02:23] <MajorPoopyPants> its all good
[02:23] <olskolirc> loading linux-source ect
[02:23] <pushpop> would vmware-server perform better on 64bit ubuntu or 32bit?
[02:23] <MajorPayne> Ohh.  Lol.  Ok, sorry.
[02:23] <olskolirc> i have fiesty fawn
[02:24] <Jordan_U> MajorPayne, Sorry, your name is the same begginging as MajorPoopyPants and I use tab completion :)
[02:24] <dimas__> bulmer>>>The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:

[02:24] <Belboz99> alecwh: you can download the Alpha version right now, its' Tribe 2, Tribe 3 is due in another week or two
[02:24] <astro76> MajorPayne, have to type 7 chars for a tab completion on him!! ;)
[02:24] <alecwh> What's the downside to those?
[02:24] <puff> For anybody who was following my earlier wireless drama, the problem was that eth0 had the same suebnet.
[02:24] <Jordan_U> astro76, No, just hit tab twice
[02:24] <dimas__> bulmer>> how do i work around with the makefile? thats my question
[02:24] <Belboz99> alecwh: I'm not sure if multiple monitor support is implemented yet or not though
[02:24] <bulmer> dimas__: those can be set within the Makefile..
[02:24] <THJ> For the people who aren't answering my question because they think I ought to read man pages or Google it instead: I already tried those, so help?
[02:25] <alecwh> Ok.
[02:25] <astro76> Jordan_U, thanks, I actually just found that today :)
[02:25] <MajorPayne> astro76, Jordan_U: It's ok.  I didn't notice him.
[02:25] <alecwh> Well.... Is my video card considered good?
[02:25] <Belboz99> alecwh: it's highly beta right now, I couldn't even get into the GUI when I tried it, even on the Live CD :(

[02:25] <Jordan_U> THJ, I don't think anyone thinks that, they just can't help you
[02:25] <Justi2> Is it possible to install quicktime using WINE?
[02:25] <dimas__> bulmer>>so you type over in the same file?
[02:25] <Belboz99> alecwh: how much RAM is on your motherboard?
[02:25] <bulmer> dimas__: modify the Makefile
[02:25] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Yes
[02:26] <dimas__> bulmer>how? on the terminal?
[02:26] <astro76> THJ, indeed, that's a pretty specific/obscure question for this channel
[02:26] <Jordan_U> !appdb | Justi2
[02:26] <ubotu> Justi2: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[02:26] <THJ> astro76: well, where would you take it? #mysql maybe?
[02:26] <Justi2> jordan_u thanks
[02:26] <THJ> I haven
[02:26] <Jordan_U> Justi2, np
[02:26] <bulmer> dimas__: use vi or emacs
[02:26] <alecwh> Belboz99, 2 gigs
[02:26] <THJ> 't tried and seen if there is a MySQL channel...
[02:26] <astro76> THJ, worth a shot I guess
[02:26] <alecwh> How do I install xinerama?
[02:27] <astro76> THJ, even #linux maybe
[02:27] <Jordan_U> !xinerama | alecwh

[02:29] <brisr> is that a command?
[02:29] <kitche> does anyone know what dwm-tools has in it like dwmenu and such?
[02:29] <Belboz99> brisr: I've had this problem as well with my card reader in my printer, sometimes it reads, sometimes it doesn't.  You can manually mount it if the automount fails
[02:29] <Jordan_U> brisr, Sorry, I was sure there was a factoid for ipods :)
[02:29] <s25> Hi all looking for some advice any one know a program with a gui that will allow me to convert videos to flv?

[02:30] <Belboz99> Jordan_U: have any ideas on my error?
[02:30] <Jordan_U> brisr, It should always mount as an external drive though
[02:30] <brisr> it should..
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Belboz99, No
[02:30] <bulmer> !vi | dimas__
[02:30] <ubotu> dimas__: Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[02:30] <Belboz99> Jordan_U: thanks anyway
[02:30] <icekiller> Why I dont run Tibia in driver open source of ati?
[02:31] <bulmer> !vim | dimas__
[02:31] <astro76> dimas__, they are text editors, if you've never heard of them, you'll want something easier like gedit or nano
[02:31] <brisr> Yeah I always have used RoxBox...
[02:31] <unity> Belboz99: i'm still a bit confused as to what to set for the software source, my isp's mirror of ubuntu is at http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/, i don't know what to set as the apt line
[02:31] <icekiller> Why I dont run Tibia in driver open source of ati?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> unity, Your isp's mirror?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> icekiller, The open source driver doesn't support 3D on all cards
[02:32] <unity> Jordan_U: i want to set it as my software source for updates so i don't get charged for downloads
[02:32] <dimas__> thank you guys!! i appreciate
[02:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> Hi!
[02:33] <brisr> OK I got it to work lol thanks for yalls help..
[02:33] <Jordan_U> unity, Ok, I have never heard of an isp setting up such a service, I can help you change it though
Thanks
[02:33] <icekiller> Jordan_U, and i want run tibia and beryl =[
[02:33] <Mocheeze> wow, that was bad, i think my computer was nearly bricked
[02:34] <d4rkmonkey> Hey can anyone help me to set amaroK to do something when I put in a CD?
[02:34] <Justi2> when I do an itunes/quicktime install with WINE, the installer hangs on "Publishing product information" should I do something different?
[02:34] <Jordan_U> icekiller, ATI cards in general suck on linux, beryl is not going to be easy to set up :(
[02:34] <unity> Jordan_U: thanks, yeah it is a good isp
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Did you check the appdb ?
[02:35] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: i think Itunes pretty much sucks w/ wine, at least thats what i've read
[02:35] <icekiller> Jordan_U, i using beryl now.. in ubuntu is easy to install..
[02:35] <Jordan_U> unity, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:35] <astro76> Justi2, it might very well not work, you can try the lastest wine: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[02:35] <d4rkmonkey> I don't think that itunes works in wine because its dependent on quick time
[02:35] <Justi2> jordan_u: I couldn't find it
[02:35] <Jordan_U> icekiller, Then you must be getting 3D acceleration with the open source drivers
[02:35] <unity> yep, got it open Jordan_U
[02:35] <d4rkmonkey> How do I set amarok to play a CD when I insert a CD into my optical drive? I tried replacing sound-juicer with amarok in the removeable drives/media thing, but that didn't work
[02:36] <Jordan_U> icekiller, So I don't know why any 3D program wouldn't run
[02:36] <Jordan_U> !appdb > Justi2
[02:36] <JayRoe> can someone help me out with setting up a remote control through the kernel?
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: you didn't look very hard...  http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=1347
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> took about 3sec
[02:36] <icekiller> Jordan_U, if i get 3d acceleration with open source, i can run tibia?
[02:36] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, you'll probably have better luck asking in #kubuntu
[02:36] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, I'm using gnome though...
[02:36] <Jordan_U> icekiller, I would assume so
[02:36] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, ATI x1600 + Beryl + Dual Monitors  ??
[02:36] <KI4IKL> I downloaded a gtk2.0 theme...how do I install it?
[02:37] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, amarok is kde and they probably all use it ;)
[02:37] <systemd0wn> i am finding a lot of stuff on google but nothing that helps in any way
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: GOOD LUCK.. i gave up and bought Nvidia.
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, won't set up change though between gnome and KDE?
[02:37] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, you probably need to find the right command line options to pass to amarok
[02:37] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, ya not an option.
[02:37] <iTG`Neatchee> Hi there.  I would like to replace the little ubuntu logo on my menu bar with a custom logo.  Every guide I've found so far hasn't worked.  I'm a running Feisty.  Has anyone been able to get this changed?
[02:37] <cleit0n> hi, please help me, i try install mplayer in dapper, but dont install here
[02:37] <icekiller> Jordan_U, ok.. and where i found this 3d acceleration?
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: don't get to excited that you'll get it to work
[02:37] <d4rkmonkey> astro76, yeah I was basically asking if anyone knew... I guess I'm gonna go for google then :)
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> d4rkmonkey: what do you need to do?
[02:38] <ingo_> hi all! wifi on my macbook suddenly doesn't work - can anyone help please ??!
[02:38] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, how about starting simple... ATI 1600 + Dual Monitors
[02:38] <d4rkmonkey> IndyGunFreak, I need to know the command that will make amaroK open up into the CD thingy
[02:38] <ilu> how does one go about changing from Gnome to KDE?
[02:38] <Jordan_U> unity, replace   http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ with http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/
[02:38] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: nothing ATI and Linux is simple.
[02:38] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[02:38] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, ok simple is a loose term
[02:38] <Jordan_U> unity, Sorry...
[02:38] <JayRoe> Jordan_U you busy?
[02:38] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, amarok --cdplay /dev/cdrom
[02:38] <unity> Jordan_U: ah i see, it needs an extra ubuntu on the end
[02:39] <unity> because there are several distributions there..
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: its not even loose in this case... its a dream
[02:39] <astro76> !doesntwork | ingo_
[02:39] <ubotu> ingo_: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:39] <d4rkmonkey> thanks unitheory
[02:39] <Jordan_U> unity, replace   http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ with http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/
[02:39] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, welcome
[02:39] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, im a little spent from today, had to read TONS just to get my ASUS P5B Delux Wifi Board to work right.
[02:39] <kbrooks> xum0
[02:39] <d4rkmonkey> unitheory, do you know how I would rip a CD in amarok?
[02:39] <ilu> any1 know how i change from gnome to kde in ubuntu? is it simple or is it complicateD?
[02:39] <B-777> Is there a channel where I can get help with firefox under ubuntu?
[02:39] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, or wherever your cd drive is
[02:39] <Jordan_U> JayRoe, I am helping a lot of people at once :)
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: well, at least you got it to work, you probably won't have the same success w/ ATI and Dual Mon.
 this is it boeing 777
[02:39] <KI4IKL> I just downlaoded a gtk2.0 theme...how do I isntall it?
[02:39] <systemd0wn> IndyGunFreak, i have seen it done! with beryl...  If your just going to nay-say dont comment
[02:39] <KI4IKL> manually
[02:39] <JayRoe> Jordan_U no problem
[02:40] <astro76> B-777, this one ;)
[02:40] <vanden> hi all. I stupidly removed the nm-aplet from my tray. (7.04 w/ gnome)I cannot figure out how to get it back. Google gave no joy. ps -e show nm-applet running, but I cannot see it. Anybody able to point me in the right direction?
[02:40] <IndyGunFreak> systemd0wn: beryl and dual monitors are quite different
[02:40] <Frogzoo> KI4IKL: sys -> prefs -> themes: drag/drop the theme in
[02:40] <kbrooks> the chess game, when i select 3D from view, says that i need to install the opengl python bindings and the gtkglext python bindings. how do i do that?
[02:40] <kbrooks> i tried to find the gtkglext python bindings, but i was unsuccessful.
[02:40] <Jordan_U> vanden, Possibly dpkg-reconfigure network-manager-gnome
[02:41] <vanden> Jordan_U: thanks, I'll go try that
[02:41] <kbrooks> does the opengl python bindings include gtkglext?
[02:41] <B-777> I just installed the java runtime plug in for firefox from the synaptic manager, and when I go to a website which uses it, it still tells me I need to install it...;
[02:41] <Jordan_U> vanden, with sudo
[02:41] <kbrooks> or what?
[02:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: right click the bar.  Click Add to panel It is under system...
[02:41] <kbrooks> anyone ...
[02:41] <vanden> Jordan_U: got that, but thanks for making sure :-)
[02:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: It's under system & hardware.
[02:42] <ilu> anyone ? answer my question ? how do i change gnome into kde?
[02:42] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: It isn't in the icon I can choose from, though :-(
[02:42] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, sorry, don't know
[02:42] <Jordan_U> ilu, You want to remove gnome entirely?
[02:42] <d4rkmonkey> unitheory, ok, I'll do a bit more searching into amarok then
[02:42] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu, yes.  apt-get install kde-desktop
 dont know.. just wondering how it would work
[02:42] <unagi> i love how in linux if something breaks.....you can fix it........not like windows at all
[02:42] <ilu> i was looking at pictures of kde and it looks better than gnome
 that easy?
[02:43] <ingo_> my wifi-connection says that i am connected to wireless .... - but it doesn't resolve any side ... - please help
[02:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu: or use system -> administration -> synaptic and install kde desktop that way.
[02:43] <Rhynri> unagi - A) if you can figure out what broke && B) if you know how to fix it.
[02:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> ilu: yes, it is that easy. :)
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: you have to be kidding, KDE looks better than gnome?..lol
[02:43] <unagi> thats what this channel and ubuntuforums is for
[02:43] <Jordan_U> ilu, just install kubuntu-desktop
[02:43] <Rhynri> hey, i just restored my home folder, permissions are broke... can i mass reset the permissions for that folder back to myself?
[02:44] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: that's Network-Monitor, which isn't as good as the one I removed by accident.
[02:44] <Jordan_U> Rhynri, sudo chown -R <yourusername> ~/
[02:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> Rhynri: 'chown -R yourname:yourname /home/yourname.
[02:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: Checking now.
[02:44] <Rhynri> thanks
[02:44] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: thanks
[02:44] <Jordan_U> vanden, Did dpkg-reconfigure do it?
[02:44] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16
[02:45] <zhimsel> can anyone help?
[02:45] <B-777> I installed the JRE plugin but it still says I need to install it in firefox, is there something I am missing?
[02:45] <vanden> Jordan_U: sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager-gnome didn't help, no
[02:45] <Jocke> Can anyone give me tips of free games for GNU/Linux that reminds about games for MS-DOS?
[02:45] <ilu> i think i have fallen inlove with linux
[02:45] <ilu> !!
[02:45] <Jordan_U> vanden, Log out and log back in again?
[02:45] <ingo_> my wifi-connection says that i am connected to wireless .... - but it doesn't resolve any side ... - please help
[02:45] <Belboz99> Jocke: ever try DosBox?
[02:45] <Jordan_U> vanden, Or killall gnome-panel ?
[02:45] <Jocke> Belboz99, yeah but I want the games to be free also.
[02:46] <Jordan_U> !games | Jocke

[02:46] <Belboz99> Jocke: ah, ok.  try some of the Arcade games ;)
[02:46] <Jocke> okay

[02:46] <ilu> any1 in here code for ubuntu?
[02:46] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16. help anyone?

[02:47] <vanden> Jordan_U: killall gnome-panel didn't help, either.
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> Rhynri: right click an image, properties/open with, and choose a program
[02:48] <ingo_> can anybody help me on my wifi-problem???
[02:48] <ingo_> my wifi-connection says that i am connected to wireless .... - but it doesn't resolve any side ... - please help
[02:48] <shiester_miester> gday everyone
[02:48] <shiester_miester> wow, everyone with wifi seems to have problems with it
[02:48] <unity> Jordan_U: when i'm updating my package list i
[02:48] <shiester_miester> i hope all that gets fixed in gutsy
[02:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: If I were me, I would open synaptic, search for network manager, right click the two network manager apps and select Mark for complete removal, which removes the config files too.  After removing them, I would reinstall and restart X.
[02:48] <unity> Jordan_U: ignore that last message, i got it     tow ork
[02:48] <unitheory> ingo_, are you sure the ap is connected to the internet?
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester:gday.., wifi is better in Feisty than it was in Edgy
[02:49] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, im pretty sure that most things would be better in feisty since its the updated version :P
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> !wifi | ingo_
[02:49] <ubotu> ingo_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:49] <shiester_miester> im assuming that they wouldnt make anything worse in an upgrade
[02:49] <fiXXXerMet> Where in /dev/ are my serial ports?
 what is ap?
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: true, but i read something somewhere, can't remember where, where some people thought Feisty took a couple steps backwards on a few things.
[02:49] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: That sound's promising. Any chance that'd bust my ability to get online, though. No fun figuring stuff out with one box that can't get otu to the world :-)
[02:49] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, That is a niave assumption...
[02:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> Wifi isn't so bad, it's just that not a lot of cards have mainstream drivers, and in trying to get ndiswrapper to work, a lot of other things get fiddled around.
[02:49] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, oh ok
[02:49] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, :)
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: and always remember, Win98 to WinMe... that would be a big step back if you ask me..lol
[02:50] <unitheory> my wifi worked perfectly out of the box (ipw2200)
[02:50] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16. help anyone?
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> my wifi is still at the electronics store.
[02:50] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, true, but im also assuming that people who make ubuntu are more clever that those that make windows...otherwise i would just go back to windows
[02:50] <shiester_miester> sorry that was meant for IndyGunFreak
[02:50] <unitheory> ingo_, the access point, ie. the wireless network you connected to
[02:50] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: I don't know how to restart X.
[02:50] <alecwh> Help! For some reason, I can't access the terminal! I click on it, and it just doesn't load. It says "starting terminal" and that's it!
[02:50] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, :)
[02:51] <shiester_miester> so what kind of things were made worse in feisty?
[02:51] <cavalierprime> ctrl+backspace to restart X
[02:51] <Jordan_U> alecwh, What about an xterm?
[02:51] <alecwh> xterm?
[02:51] <astro76> cavalierprime, ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: It's possible, if you are worried, mark them for reinstallation first, then completely remove them, then install them..  Then you'll be sure the .deb files will be cached locally.  (in /var/cache/apt/yadayada.)
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: i agree with you, canonical has more talent in their little offices, than MS has worldwide..., but still, people will always be happy w some changes, and will think they are "worse"..
[02:51] <liluo> any coders in here?
[02:51] <alecwh> I've tried restarting X server
[02:51] <cavalierprime> yeah what he said  :)
[02:51] <Jordan_U> alecwh, try running "xterm" from alt+F2
[02:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> liluo: ?
[02:51] <alecwh> I have, but I can't use the term "sudo" in there, can I?
[02:51] <alecwh> I need to alter some nvidia-settings
 yes the ap is ok - first my wifi worked without problems after installation - after i typed in my default-key, it doesn't resolve any adress
[02:51] <alecwh> with root
 coder ie programmer
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, You can use sudo from any terminal
[02:52] <alecwh> I only have one
[02:52] <alecwh> where?
[02:52] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, i was referring to more objective measures of things being worse than just a person's preferences.  like for example, a particular functionality being broken/bug-ridden etc
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, Though you should be using gksudo for GUI applications
[02:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> liluo: well I'm not an IE programmer, I think you'll find few of them here. :)
[02:52] <unagi> how do i revert the title bar at the top of the screen to the way it is when u install ubuntu?
[02:52] <shiester_miester> IndyGunFreak, obviously there will be trade-offs in some departments
[02:52] <Jordan_U> alecwh, try running "xterm" from alt+F2
[02:52] <cavalierprime> drag it to the top
[02:52] <alecwh>  ok.
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> shiester_miester: yeah, like i said though, one need only look at win98 to winMe to see a upgrade gone horribly wrong.. lol
[02:53] <unagi> no i mean my icons are out of wack
[02:53] <unagi> like the network stuff
[02:53] <alecwh> Ok, I used "gksudo"
[02:53] <shiester_miester> yep
[02:53] <alecwh> and it opened it
[02:53] <alecwh> I'm going to restart
[02:53] <alecwh> one sec
[02:53] <shiester_miester> anybody got any ideas about how to debug a very stubborn network problem
[02:53] <nerdygirl_ellie> I disagree.  Microsoft has a lot of talent.  The problem is dilution.
[02:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: more information please.
[02:54] <zhimsel> i have a boot problem. ubuntu starts to boot but stops at /scripts/init-bottom and my caps-lock key starts flashing. i run the boot in verbose mode and i see that i'm getting a kernel panic. possibly relating to ext3.  i'm running feisty w/ kernel v2.6.20-16. help anyone?
[02:54] <unagi> how do you move the system tray on the bar at the top?
[02:54] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: thanks for the suggestions. I'm off to try them, and will come back when done to let you know if you are still about. (You too, Jordan_U)
[02:54] <alecwh> Ok, thanks a lot, that worked perfectly. :)
[02:55] <shiester_miester> basically, the NIC is detected fine, i can specify IP address fine, i plug in a cable and the little lights flash on both computers NICs, so its working to some degree, but it refuses to actually WORK in ubuntu, in terms of transferring data
[02:55] <alecwh> Now, how do I close a program that's running? I'm using metacity, and I have AWN up... how do I close it? (Like, cntrl alt delete in windows)
[02:55] <webmaren> !offtopic|webmaren
[02:55] <astro76> unagi, just add the stuff back with Add to panel... (Menu bar, notification area, network manager, volume, clock, quit...)
[02:55] <unagi> =(
[02:55] <astro76> unagi, right click, unlock, right click, move
[02:55] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, all the commands everyone has told me to use to check that its working have said that theres nothing wrong with it at all
[02:55] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, any ATI users here?
  any idea?
[02:55] <unagi> anyone know how to get the bar at the top back to defaults?
[02:55] <zhimsel> systemdown,i use ati
[02:55] <unitheory> ingo_, sorry, dont know
[02:56] <systemd0wn> zhimsel, happen to use dual monitors?
[02:56] <unagi> the network monitor in the add stuff isnt the same one
[02:56] <MajorPayne> Hi.  I am trying to start a browser remotely.  I type ssh -X hostname and log in.  I then type firefox at the prompt but it launches a local browser.  I know because when I type local host I get host not found but if I type in the host name in the browser I get the site I am looking for.
[02:56] <cavalierprime> systemd0wn:  I do with ATI
[02:56] <zhimsel> no. but i have tried. what's up?
[02:56] <unagi> astro76:  i just want it back the way it was =*(
[02:57] <Jordan_U> !ops

[02:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: It may be that the network card just doesn't work.  Is it a common network card?
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> what the
[02:57] <Bob_le_Pointu> Ow
[02:57] <tapas> omg
[02:57] <systemd0wn> haha
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> i hate when that happens.
[02:57] <Bob_le_Pointu> Was fun.
[02:57] <astro76> unagi, actually the network manager shows up in the notification area, so you don't need to add that
[02:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> Now we get to see the ops play whack a mole.
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> makes my head hurt.
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: lol
[02:58] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[02:58] <ramza3> I am trying to play wmv files but sound wont load, is there a place to find sound codecs
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> ramza3: I'll get ubotu'd, but automatix is really good at that.
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> !automatix
[02:59] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:59] <Jordan_U> ramza3, Do you have w32codecs installed ?
[02:59] <astro76> ramza3, you'll want to install ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs
[02:59] <Jordan_U> nerdygirl_ellie, Maybe you should read that factoid :)
[02:59] <alecwh> !worksforme
[02:59] <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.
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: lol, imprssive, you ubotu'd yourself.
[02:59] <astro76> !medibuntu | ramza3 you can get w32codecs here
[02:59] <ubotu> ramza3 you can get w32codecs here: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[02:59] <nalioth> ramza3: feisty automatically installs needed codecs
[02:59] <nalioth> nerdygirl_ellie: feisty automatically installs needed codecs
[02:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> I thought I would save y'all the trouble. ;)
[03:00] <ramza3> nalioth, so far it hasnt
[03:00] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[03:00] <nalioth> nerdygirl_ellie: automatix will kill your system.
[03:00] <astro76> nalioth, true, not w32codecs though
[03:01] <nalioth> automatix is the immediate 'fix' to your perceived problem, but your system will not recover from it.
[03:01] <zhimsel> ramza3: did you try using vlc?
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, basically, the NIC is detected fine, i can specify IP address fine, i plug in a cable and the little lights flash on both computers NICs, so its working to some degree, but it refuses to actually WORK in ubuntu, in terms of transferring data
[03:01] <cavalierprime> you might google it
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, all the commands everyone has told me to use to check that its working have said that theres nothing wrong with it at all
[03:01] <shiester_miester> oeps
[03:01] <nalioth> astro76: only installing w32codecs won't bother Ubuntu a bit.  using automatix will.
[03:01] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, the thing is, it was previously working perfectly fine, ive had it for years
[03:01] <shiester_miester> there we go, lol
[03:01] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Does it get dhcp?
[03:01] <shiester_miester> for some reason it wouldnt let me post until i registered my nick :/
[03:01] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nope
[03:02] <anandanbu> Where do i get files with .deb for creating a collection to install for offline users
[03:02] <shiester_miester> it gets nothing
[03:02] <astro76> nalioth, indeed, I mean they won't be automatically offered for installation like other codecs
[03:02] <dabaR> what is that daemon restarting dir in /etc?
[03:02] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, have you tried "sudo dhclient < interface >" ?
[03:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: I got that.  I think it's a nic problem, not a networking problem.  I was hoping to be able to help, but that'll probably involve fiddling with bit I have no business in.  I am the automatix chic after all. :)
[03:02] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, SWEET.  would you be able to point me in the direction of a how to?  (might be asking to much, but do you use beryl?)
[03:02] <nalioth> astro76: ah yes
[03:02] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nope
[03:03] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, maybe, but it was working just fine until recently...its possible though
[03:03] <unity> thanks again Jordan_U, i successfully updated my system from my ISP's mirror
[03:03] <kbrooks> umm.
[03:03] <Jordan_U> unity, Great :)
[03:03] <shiester_miester> although i did do a few things to set up internet connection sharing just before it stopped working
[03:03] <kbrooks> ping.
[03:03] <unitheory> pong!
[03:03] <dabaR> what is that daemon restarting dir in /etc?
[03:03] <shiester_miester> except that the internet connection sharing worked for a little while, too
[03:03] <kbrooks> is there a good 3d game, other than ppracer?
[03:03] <shiester_miester> im trying to find it so i can reverse the process :P
[03:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: did you try the obvious, new cable, etc... brb
[03:03] <cavalierprime> systemd0wn:  I don't have a how-to, just figured it out by poking around.  I don't use beryl atm sorry
[03:03] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, nexuiz

[03:04] <kbrooks> !nexuiz

[03:04] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, sort of like a cross between unreal tournament and quake 3, but with very nice graphics
[03:04] <systemd0wn> cavalierprime, aight, well thanks.
[03:04] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, no, i'd rather not shoot
[03:04] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, no i didnt, but if it was a bad cable the connection lights wouldnt be working, would they?
[03:04] <shiester_miester> kbrooks, whats wrong with you :P
[03:04] <unagi> network monitoring isnt in my system tray anymore
[03:04] <unagi> what happened to it =(
[03:05] <d4rkmonkey> whats a good amarok-like program for gnome?
[03:05] <kbrooks> shiester_miester, lets see, umm, nothing?
[03:05] <shiester_miester> lol i was jk
[03:06] <anandanbu> can somebody tell me where can i get files with .deb extension for creating a aptoncd DVD
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> d4rkmonkey: if you don'tw ant to sync an IPOD, Exaile
[03:06] <tonyyarusso> d4rkmonkey: banshee, quod libet, rhythmbox, exaile
[03:06] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, are you trying to rid cds?
[03:06] <unitheory> d4rkmonkey, rip*
[03:06] <|c4|> could someone help me with getting libdvdcss installed on ubuntu, festy?
[03:06] <Justi2> Is there another way to install Adobe flash player other than using the firefox plugin installer?
[03:06] <Chihork> is there a configuration file I can go into to change the startup resolution of usplash?
[03:07] <shiester_miester> ah here it is
[03:07] <Taco`> can someone please tell me where session files are stored?
[03:07] <d4rkmonkey> yeah unitheory I need it to rip CDs too. I might just go back to using banshee. I really like amarok, but if it doesn't rip CDs I'm not using it
[03:07] <aztracker1> hi all, I have a new laptop I'm planning on putting Ubuntu on... is there a dev version (in line for the upcoming 7.10 release), or should I go with 7.04?
[03:07] <shiester_miester> Jordan_U, nerdygirl_ellie, this is what i did just before it stopped working http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[03:07] <d4rkmonkey> I've tried exaile but I don't like it
[03:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: it's possible, Bad cables can act weird.
[03:08] <|c4|> i need help with lipdvdcss. anyone?
[03:08] <shiester_miester> but it DID work for a short while afterwards, the internet connection sharing was fully functional, then i believe i restarted and nothing network-related worked at all
[03:08] <|c4|> having trouble getting dvds to play
[03:08] <dimas__> how do i do this?  Workaround to make the Makefile use gcc-3.4
[03:08] <jamman> !dvd| |c4|
[03:08] <ubotu> |c4|: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> anandanbu: What you are asking for is non-trivial,  having said that, you can see where Ubuntu/Apt/Synaptic gets their deb files by looking in your /etc/apt/sources files.
[03:08] <Justi2> What is better to install from? tar.gz or .rpm
[03:09] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, If you don't know about dpkg dependencies and bug fixing you shouldn't use Gutsy ( see topic in #ubuntu+1 )
[03:09] <unitheory> Justi2, tar.gz
[03:09] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, okay thx...
[03:09] <jamman> Justi2, tar
[03:09] <Taco`> can someone please tell me where session files are stored?
[03:09] <aztracker1> from what I've read, camera and wifi support are 50/50 but most gfx stuff and suspend work w/ nvidia (proprietary) drivers..
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: well, if you're using a redhat distro, RPM
[03:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> Justi2: .deb, and if it is unavailable, .rpm and alien, or .tar.gz and chkinstall.
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: .?..lol, you sure have some dangerous suggestions...lol
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> rpm and alien should be an absolute last resort.
[03:10] <dimas__> could you explain me how i do this>>>he Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[03:10] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[03:10] <Jordan_U> Justi2, What are you trying to install ?
[03:11] <jamman> HellDragon, cool name man.
[03:11] <HellDragon> :o
[03:11] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, would you suggest 64bit, or 32bit?  I've only got 2gb ram, and mostly do web dev related stuff..
[03:11] <Justi2> jordan_u adobe flash player
[03:11] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, 32bit
[03:11] <kbrooks> Justi2, i should reiterate: .tar.gz AND checkinstall. tar -xzvf /path/to/tarball-0.0.0.tar.gz; cd /path/to/tarball-0.0.0; ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall
[03:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> dimas__: You'll need to get an old version of the c compiler gcc, and then run "export CC=gcc-3.4"  and it probably still won't work.
[03:11] <unitheory> eh.. only 2gb ram
[03:11] <Jordan_U> Justi2, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> aztracker1: 32bit.
[03:12] <jamman> aztracker1, 32
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: why are you trying to compile flash?.. its in the repos.
[03:12] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, thx.. ran 5.10-6.10 for about 9 months last year, went to win this year for work, but going to be using the laptop for play, and vmware for windows again.
[03:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> aztracker1: 64 bit needs a few more YEARS yet, on windows AND ubuntu.
[03:12] <Justi2> I couldn't find it
[03:12] <aztracker1> thx all... :)  downloading 7.04-32 now...
[03:12] <aztracker1> yeah, win64 way sucks.
[03:12] <uncle_rico> Yo, i am trying to install Counter Strike on Ubuntu but when it prompts me to load the 2nd disk i get a error message that "a application is using it and it can't unmount the disk' what is a workaround
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> nerdygirl_ellie: now that we agree with...lol.
[03:12] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Enable universe and multiverse
[03:13] <Nutubuntu> I just powered on my Feisty box and got a scare - got the busybox (?) and ash - had to power down entirely and restart, a warm boot didn't get me past it. What's that about, and how serious a problem is it?
[03:13] <Justi2> jordan_u: what should I search for in synaptic
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> Justi2: flashplugin-nonfree
[03:13] <ned_> when i put a dvd in, nothing happens
[03:13] <dimas__> nerdygirl i did get the old version already, so how do i run it just typing this on the terminal?"export CC=gcc-3.4"
[03:13] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, That usually means that your root partition is incorrectly set in grub
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd | ned_
[03:14] <ubotu> ned_: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:14] <Jordan_U> Justi2, flashplugin non free
[03:14] <ned_> IndyGunFreak: i installed libdvdcss2 and libdvdread3 and it still doesn't work.
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> ned_: then you didn't do something right
[03:14] <Jordan_U> ned_, Are you using vlc or gxine ?
[03:14] <kr00lplatinum> anyone know how to get an .iso image to run on a virtual cd rom drive?
[03:14] <ned_> Jordan_U: totem afaik
[03:15] <Nutubuntu> t/y Jordan_U - can you point me to a tutorial or how-to on setting it up better? /boot, /, and /home are all on a software RAID1; so far it's booted just fine - until just now, when it sort of scared me a bit :)
[03:15] <Jordan_U> !iso | kr00lplatinum
[03:15] <ubotu> kr00lplatinum: 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.
[03:15] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: I'm back :-) Uninstalling and reinstalling the network manager apps didn't help. But, happily, it didn't kill my connectivity, either :-)
[03:15] <Jordan_U> ned_, Totem doesn't support DVD playing
[03:15] <ned_> Jordan_U: what should i use then?
[03:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: yeah for still working, booh for not fixed.
[03:15] <vanden> Jordan_U: login/logut didn't help my nm-applet problem. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
[03:15] <Nutubuntu> Jordan_U,  in fact I imagine it has to do with grub setting up on one but not both of the mirrored disks in /boot
[03:15] <Jordan_U> ned_, I like vlc
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> vlc rox
[03:16] <ned_> Jordan_U: vlc?
[03:16] <ned_> lag...
[03:16] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: what do you mean?
[03:16] <kupesoft> How do I disable avahi and prevent devices like eth0:avah from being created
[03:16] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Just mount it
[03:16] <Taco`> hahahah
[03:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: try... alt-f2 nm-applet --sm-disable
[03:16] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: i don't know how i'm only a n00b
[03:16] <ned_> Jordan_U: well, it wasn't working before, but i gave it some time just now and it works... i think
[03:16] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: will do. Thanks
[03:17] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Look at the message from ubotu] 
[03:17] <d4rkmonkey> does gtkpod sync video too?
[03:17] <ned_> Jordan_U: thanks for the tip
[03:17] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U: it's all grEEk to me
[03:17] <Jordan_U> ned_, np
[03:17] <Jordan_U> !iso > kr00lplatinum
[03:17] <ca1> How do you back up the songs from your ipod with rhythmbox?
[03:17] <kr00lplatinum> Jordan_U what does that mean?
[03:18] <d4rkmonkey> does anyone know if gtkpod can put video onto an iPod too?
[03:18] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Create a folder where you want it mounted, like: sudo mkdir /media/fakeCDROM
[03:18] <Spaceman3750> Hey guys, I need to know how to install a piece of software from a tar.gz package
[03:18] <ned_> d4rkmonkey: i don't know, but i'd but interested to find out too :)
[03:18] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: No detectable effect. What were you hoping it would do?
[03:18] <jamman> Spaceman3750, very cafefully.
[03:19] <Jordan_U> kr00lplatinum, Then run sudo mount -o loop < path/to/iso > < /media/fakeCDROM >
[03:19] <d4rkmonkey> ned_, I remember reading about it working but I'm not sure which version... do you know what the gtkpod-aac package is?
[03:19] <jamman> Spaceman3750, you untar it first with, "tar xvzf /path/to/tar.gz
[03:19] <jamman> "
[03:19] <Spaceman3750> Ugh...  So I'm assuming there is no single command to install?
[03:19] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: reading the man page didn't shed light on why you suggested that command.
[03:19] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, What are you trying to install?
[03:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: for me it will make my icon reappear if I kill it.
[03:19] <jamman> Spaceman3750, nope.
[03:19] <Spaceman3750> The version of Dansguardian distributed with Ubuntu CE
[03:20] <dimas__> nerdygirl_ellie i did get the old version but i dont know how to change the defoult configuration in the makefile
[03:20] <MrElendig> jamman: that won't work
[03:20] <MrElendig> you forgot the -
[03:20] <jamman> MrElendig, why?
[03:20] <Brent> Linux newbie here, with a question
[03:20] <Spaceman3750> I didn't get CE, but they distribute Dansguardian seperately as well
[03:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> it's what starts the applet in gnome.
[03:20] <jamman> MrElendig, you don't need one!
[03:20] <d4rkmonkey> !anyone | Brent
[03:20] <ubotu> Brent: 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?
[03:20] <Spaceman3750> I'm a Ubuntu noob, but need to install the filter to keep my parents happy
[03:20] <Brent> Actually, I'm an IRC newbie as well
[03:20] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, Ubuntu Christian Edition uses the same repositories AFIK
[03:20] <d4rkmonkey> lol Brent, what do you need?
[03:20] <Brent> Sorry, my question is with installing Ubuntu. I've done it before.......
[03:20] <jamman> Spaceman3750, sucks for you!
[03:20] <jamman> j/k
[03:20] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, Just install dansguardian from synaptic / apt
[03:21] <Brent> Last night, I was able to get into the installation procedure, but didn't install due to something that came up before partitioning
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> OK, I have the package, can you walk me through it?
[03:21] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, do you remember what it said?
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> If you can, I would be forever grateful :P
[03:21] <Justi2> jordan_u: I tried to install flash from synaptic, but the installation is frozen
[03:21] <Brent> However, today, I can't even get to the installation procedure now. It goes through to the menu, I select to install, and after loading some stuff it gets stuck at a blank screen
[03:21] <Jordan_U> Justi2, Look at the details, it is probably prompting you for something
[03:21] <Spaceman3750> Is it availible in the software repository built into Ubuntu...
[03:21] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: is the nm-applet one of the icons availble to be added for you via add to panel? (You previously suggested add to panel, but I only have the Network Monitor under system and hardware. That one doesn't let you easily switch networks.)
[03:22] <d4rkmonkey> o_O Brent thats a really weird error... are you on the live CD now?
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, sudo apt-get install dansguardian
[03:22] <Brent> No, I'm back on XP
[03:22] <jamman> Spaceman3750, i tried once. i gave up that one time too.
[03:22] <Justi2> jordan_u: it says "OK......."
[03:22] <Jordan_U> Spaceman3750, It is available in the repos
[03:22] <biotrox> jamman, why does my ubuntu resolution sometimes small, sometimes large??
[03:22] <Spaceman3750> OK, let me see if I can find it.
[03:23] <Brent> Last night it got all the way through to the Ubuntu partition routine and everything, but I stopped before partitioning
[03:23] <unagi_> can mac programs run on linux?
[03:23] <nerdygirl_ellie> vanden: no, for me it's the one that does the wireless network and works and all.
[03:23] <jamman> biotrox, unstable x?
[03:23] <hatter> are there numbers anywhere of how many people are using ubuntu-server edition ?
[03:23] <Jordan_U> unagi_,
[03:23] <Jordan_U> no
[03:23] <biotrox> no the x is stable
[03:23] <unagi_> not at all possible?
[03:23] <jamman> biotrox, or your mods aren't getting loaded right.
[03:23] <Spaceman3750> Do you have any idea where it would be located?
[03:23] <MrElendig> unagi_: the binaries can't
[03:23] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, I really have no idea whats up with this then... I'm not that great with Linux myself.
[03:23] <biotrox> only the resolution
[03:23] <MrElendig> but you can compile some to run on linux
[03:23] <biotrox> mods..?
[03:23] <unagi_> im more interested in running a 3D motion camera tracker program
[03:23] <vanden> nerdygirl_ellie: argh. that's a bit frusterating then. Oh well, thanks for the help. I think I'll try a forum post.
[03:23] <unagi_> is that possible?
[03:24] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Probably not
[03:24] <unagi_> =(
[03:24] <Justi2> jordan_u how do I end a frozen install?
[03:24] <MrElendig> unagi_: there are some written for linux
[03:24] <Brent> Hmmmmm, I can't imagine what is going on then. Also, do most people have live distros not be able to load on a laptop? My friend and I have that same problem, but it will load on our desktop
[03:24] <unagi_> i like synth eyes
[03:24] <Brent> Cause I can't even get the live distro to work
[03:24] <sgordon> dsf
[03:24] <Jordan_U> Brent, The Live CD works fine for me
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, mine wouldn't start up on my laptop, have you tried the alternate CD?
[03:25] <unagi_> alt + click moves my windows and i dont want it to but i cant figure out how to stop it
[03:25] <Jordan_U> Brent, Have you tried the alternate install CD ?
[03:25] <Brent> Alternate CD?
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> !alternate | Brent
[03:25] <ubotu> Brent: 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
[03:25] <sgordon> hello
[03:25] <justin__> Im having a problem setting up my xubuntu installation to function as a file/media server and i cant seem to find any explanation exactly explaining what i need
[03:25] <shiester_miester> hey with gdesklets, how do i remove a desklet that is having errors and won't display?  i cant see it to right click and remove it :/
[03:25] <m11> brent , use alternate cd install
[03:25] <d4rkmonkey> Brent, by text or "expert" its not really true... Its really not that hard to install
[03:25] <Brent> Is it more difficult? I don't know any commands
[03:25] <Brent> oh
[03:25] <Spaceman3750> Hey Jordan, I can't find it in the repo...  Am I missing something?
[03:25] <Brent> Can I select the text based install from the regular CD menu?
[03:25] <Brent> Maybe that will work?
[03:25] <jamman> unagi, let go of the mouse?
[03:25] <jamman> if not, you have something wrong.
[03:26] <unagi_> anyone know how to change alt + click for move
[03:26] <Jordan_U> Brent, no
[03:26] <Brent> Oh, that's different?
[03:26] <Justi2> how do I stop a synaptic install
[03:26] <bruenig> Justi2, on cli, it would be ctrl + c
[03:26] <Brent> Oh, and just for the record, I don't have the CD, I have the DVD from Linux Pro magazine
[03:26] <justin__> Anyone here a server expert that could lend me a hand? I need to set up users on my server, that upon logging in to the server, they will be able to read/write their home directory as well as a second hard drive i have installed.
[03:27] <Slaj_R> Can anyone suggest the closest Linux equivalent to PalmOne or iCal?
[03:27] <Brent> sorry I forgot that detail
[03:27] <m11> brent  :)
[03:27] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: are the users in a specific group?
[03:27] <phructarian> hello
[03:27] <m11> dl alternate cd install brent
[03:27] <unagi_> jamman.......i want to prevent the keystroke from even occuring
[03:27] <biotrox> jamman what do you mean by mods..?
[03:27] <alecwh> I'm running Ubuntu + Compiz, and all the tops of my windows disapeared. can I fix this?
[03:27] <Brent> I'll do that. If that works, then should the DVD work?
[03:27] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: no not at the moment, they will be, but i need this to function locally, as well as remotely from their own linux installs
[03:27] <Spaceman3750> Hey Jordan, any ideas?
[03:27] <phructarian> I was reading on digg the other day that there's a distro called "Gobuntu" - what is this about?
[03:28] <jamman> biotrox, what video card do you use? by mods i mean modules.
[03:28] <jamman> lol people, it is sad.
[03:28] <m11> cant tell for dvd brent
[03:28] <Jordan_U> phructarian, It is Ubuntu - anything even slightly proprietary
[03:28] <biotrox> jamman, i am using RIVA TNT2 an old VGA card, i don't know if the mods aren't loaded right
[03:28] <opapo> When I use the live cd for powerpc on an iMac it won't fully load
[03:28] <jamman> im installing a windows 2003 server right now. :(
[03:28] <Brent> I do have another Ubuntu based install I could try- Ubuntu Studio
[03:28] <jamman> biotrox, well, try googlinig it.
[03:28] <Brent> And Linux Mint
[03:29] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: the problem is, i keep trying to set up samba, but the only way i can access the folders is by typing in smb:\\IPADDRESS and not by just going to the shared folders area
[03:29] <biotrox> jamman, tried that
[03:29] <unagi_> so no one knows how to change that =(
[03:29] <justin__> nerdygirl_ellie: and that is no good for them, since they are relative idiots lol
[03:29] <Jordan_U> Brent, How does the LiveCD fail exactly?
[03:29] <m11> brent , maybe is problem in cd iso, did u check for defects ?
[03:29] <biotrox> jamman, maybe i googled with the wrong keyword
[03:29] <jamman> biotrox, also, there should be a thing under prefrences called fonts. play around in there.
[03:29] <Nutubuntu> Can someone point me to a tutorial or how-to on setting up grub? I have /boot, /, and /home are all on a software RAID1; until today it's booted just fine - but just now, it sort of scared me a bit :) I think it's 'cause grub is only on one of the mirrored /boot pair, maybe ...
[03:29] <alejo> #UBUNTU-ES
[03:29] <dimas__> how i do this?The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[03:29] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[03:29] <dimas__> This sets the environment variable CC, which is used in the spac5xx Makefile to select the compiler.
[03:29] <Brent> Well, it got to the install process last night, so I assumed the disk was fine?
[03:29] <alecwh> I'm running Ubuntu + Compiz Fusion, and I just booted up, and all the tops of my windows are gone. The bar which contains the "Close" "minimize" and "Maximize" buttons is gone, completely! How do I fix this?
[03:30] <Brent> I can check it though, through the menu right?
[03:30] <jamman> mneptok, how did you do that eyes roll thingy?
[03:30] <m11> yes brent
[03:30] <Jordan_U> Brent, Yes
[03:30] <biotrox> jamman, it's not only fonts getting big, but the desktop (icon, tasbar and everything within it
[03:30] <mneptok> jamman: /me
[03:30] <justin__> alecwh: thats a known bug, the compiz site has a fix for it i believe, something about window decorators not appearing
[03:30] <Nutubuntu> alecwh,  you can maybe get answers #compiz-fusion?
[03:30] <unagi_> alecwh:  type in console compiz --replace
[03:30] <Brent> Ok, I'll try that and also try Ubuntu Studio, and I'll come back
[03:30] <jamman> cool.
[03:31] <mneptok> i most certainly am not.
[03:31] <m11> gl brent
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman, but sometimes when i turn on my ubuntu, than it will have the resolution i expected
[03:31] <Brent> thanks, I'll be back in a little while
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman but it happen once in a while..
[03:31] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: you're going out of my league.  for my users, (they aren't that bright either) I map network drives under windows.  "r: is R office u: is for You, s: is for stuff that goes out to all the offices.
[03:31] <biotrox> jamman | not everyday the computer has the resolution 1280x1024
[03:31] <jamman> biotrox, well, then try in a terminal "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[03:31] <unagi_> anyone know how to change the keystroke for move window?
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> justin__: and i mount the shares for the other linux users .
[03:32] <biotrox> jamman | oke
[03:32] <mneptok> drive letters. how quaint.
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_ are you using compiz?
[03:32] <unagi_> yes
[03:32] <nerdygirl_ellie> mneptok: and it works.
[03:32] <m11> gn all
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_:  the dnome configuration app for gl desktop can change that.
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> s/dnome/gnome
[03:33] <nerdygirl_ellie> unagi_: control panel ->gl desktop
[03:33] <mneptok> nerdygirl_ellie: drive letters in a Unix channel are like a redneck yessing "y'all shor got sum ree-yull nice art stuff!" in the Louvre.
[03:34] <mneptok> *yelling
[03:34] <unagi_> changes it to super + click but super + click doesnt work
[03:34] <jamman> YAY 19 more minutes till windows server 2003 is installed!
[03:34] <Nutubuntu> Okay, if nobody's up for the grub question, howzabout this: I'm getting warnings about the latest set of upgrades being NOT AUTHENTICATED, how fix that?
[03:34] <nerdygirl_ellie> mneptok: is mapping a network drive significantly different from mounting an NFS share in the eyes of the user?
[03:34] <opapo> I can't get Dapper PowerPc to work on a Mac
[03:34] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, sudo apt-get update
[03:34] <jamman> Nutubuntu, you ignore it. you need to get a key from somewhere. search ubuntu repository key in google.
[03:35] <opapo> I believe there is an X Server problem
[03:35] <unagi_> nerdygirl will you go on a date with me?
[03:35] <unagi_> :D
[03:35] <Tlink> night all
[03:35] <Nutubuntu> Jordan_U,  jamman - t/y :)
[03:35] <mneptok> nerdygirl_ellie: it's the C: and H: and Z: and stuff that make me laugh. it's all so .... declassee. ;)
[03:35] <nerdygirl_ellie> If my SO will understand. :)
[03:35] <Frogzoo> unagi_: offtopic
[03:35] <mneptok> unagi_: please stop that
[03:35] <jamman> Nutubuntu, no prob my friend.
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> did I get silenced?
[03:37] <jamman> is it just me, or are lots of people quiting, little talkign?
[03:37] <Tr0gd0r> yes
[03:37] <jamman> nerdygirl_ellie, nope.
[03:37] <jamman> holy cow!
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> ...emkay, whatever.
[03:37] <nerdygirl_ellie> hehe
[03:37] <Xbehave> do  beryl/compliz etc work with 2 seperate screens?
[03:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> Xbehave: yes, if you are patient, dedicated, and masochistic.
[03:38] <cavalierprime> it should because each screen is separate X environment
[03:38] <RGautier> FreeNX needs to be added to Add/Remove Applications
[03:38] <jamman> nerdygirl_ellie, you sound kind of... nerdy.
[03:38] <jamman> j/k
[03:38] <nerdygirl_ellie> cavalierprime: ignoring twinview and a bunch of other variables, yes.
[03:39] <jamman> RGautier, what is freenx?
[03:39] <CppIsWeird> I am trying to see my linux share on a windows machine. The windows machine can see the workgroup i set up, and the linux computer inside of it, but when i click that, i get "I cannot access this resource because i do not have permissions". Only thing i did was System>administration>shared folder, and share a folder, and also have checked that this computer is a wins server, what more do i need to do?
[03:39] <RGautier> The FreeNX server lets me connect with NX Client - kind of like RDP for X
[03:39] <Xbehave> nerdygirl_ellie: where does the masochism come in? i set up the xorg.conf with all the settings for 1 screen for both, glxgears can be draged across both screens, but beryl doesnt start
[03:40] <Frogzoo> CppIsWeird: you need to run 'smbpasswd' to create a samba account password
[03:40] <Jordan_U> RGautier, I don't really see much advantage to freenx over ssh -X, especially with the work it can be to set it up
[03:40] <Slyboots> Hi, Im having some issues with getting my Nvidia card installed and working in Ubuntu
[03:40] <jamman> CppIsWeird, well, is it a samba share or an nfs share?
[03:40] <streather> hey guys i need a little help getting fglrx drivers working properly with 6.10
[03:40] <Slyboots> Its quite a old card Geforce 4 MX ;) But in order to use the legacy driver I have to downgrade my kenerl
[03:40] <Slyboots> Since its only released for 2.6.20-15
[03:40] <jamman> biotrox, did that fix it?
[03:40] <Jordan_U> streather, Why are you using 6.10 ?
[03:40] <Frogzoo> !fglrx | streather
[03:40] <ubotu> streather: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:41] <nerdygirl_ellie> Xbehave: if you don't know where the masochism comes in, you haven't been working on it long enough yet. :)
[03:41] <Slyboots> I followed that, it does not work
[03:41] <CppIsWeird> jamman... no idea, i did things through ubuntu. so whatever ubuntu fesity does.
[03:41] <CppIsWeird> Frogzoo, i'll try that.
[03:41] <streather> because the 7.04 installation disk freaks out during boot
[03:41] <jamman> CppIsWeird, that is right.
[03:41] <Xbehave> i dunno what to do acording to me, it should work, are there any guides / torture chambers for this?
[03:42] <rustalot> how do I make a playable dvd? (and !dvd doesn't answer my question)
[03:42] <CppIsWeird> erm, its asking be for an OLD samba password... and blank did not work.
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> !dvd rustalot
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dvd rustalot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> :P
[03:42] <streather> the ubuntu version dislikes my gfx card and wont display anything and the kubuntu version refuses to boot at all >.<
[03:42] <Justi2> flash is downloading at 500 BYTES per second- something is messed up
[03:42] <d4rkmonkey> streather, install with alternate, edit xorg and install needed drivers then
[03:42] <RGautier> ssh -X ?  Is there an XWindows PuTTY client that would connect to and configure Ubuntu without my having to have installed FreeNX?
[03:43] <rustalot> I have a video file I want to /put/ on a dvd
[03:43] <nerdygirl_ellie> RGautier: I want to know too!
[03:43] <d4rkmonkey> Can anyone tell me the difference between gtkpod and gtkpod-aac?
[03:43] <CppIsWeird> excuse me, im getting this error: Could not connect to machine 127.0.0.1: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
[03:43] <cavalierprime> justi2: to get my flash player 9 I had to d/l it from another comp and then install it from CD because mine did the same thing
[03:43] <Jordan_U> RGautier, There is X for cygwin
[03:44] <nerdygirl_ellie> Jordan_U: that is a lot more work on the client than running the FreeNx app.
[03:44] <puller> hey, i am having trouble installing flock on ubuntu, i followed a how to and it didnt work....
[03:44] <streather> i think i know my current problem just need some help resolving it
[03:44] <Justi2> cavalierprime: how do I get the linux version- the only other comps I have are windows
[03:44] <cavalierprime> d/l the linux version from adobe, just search it on the web site
[03:44] <Jordan_U> nerdygirl_ellie, I know, I didn't realize that he wasn't connecting from a *NIX box
[03:44] <Romeo5k> QUESTION: what is the lightest gui (OS) i can use on fiesty server.. Ive been trying CmL for 3 days, and cant get FTP to werk.. and im upset now...
[03:45] <jamman> Romeo5k, NONE!
[03:45] <Romeo5k> :O
[03:45] <HHP2K> Hello everyone!
[03:45] <RGautier> cygwin is a pain to keep up to date
[03:45] <jamman> Romeo5k, if you must use one, use x
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> Romeo5k: do you want to ftp from the box or to the box?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, Strait X is the lightest you can run
[03:45] <HHP2K> I have a rather urgent problem to ask you guys about.
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> !ask
[03:45] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> :D
[03:45] <RGautier> FreeNX also has compression protocols that make it nice over WAN
[03:45] <Romeo5k> PROPER NAME : strait X?
[03:45] <d4rkmonkey> !gtkpod
[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtkpod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:45] <nerdygirl_ellie> X is awful over a wan.
[03:45] <d4rkmonkey> !ipod
[03:45] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, Don't install any window manager and just use X
[03:46] <d4rkmonkey> !rockbox
[03:46] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:46] <RGautier> FreeNX works good over the WAN..
[03:46] <Romeo5k> is this X --> http://xwinman.org/screenshots/fluxbox-jef.jpg
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, No, that is fluxbox
[03:46] <sdouble> anyone know how to connect to a remote vnc server with vncviewer on a specified port?
[03:47] <Nutubuntu> I sync my Palm device to j-pilot ... it's suddenly quit working; /dev/ttyUSB1 no longer seems to exist. Now ... how do I start on this one? Google tells me zippola ...
[03:47] <Romeo5k> Jordan_U can u link me to X pls?
[03:47] <nerdygirl_ellie> Romeo5k: do you want to run an ftp client on the box or an ftp server?
[03:47] <Slyboots> "ERROR. idaho45 -> Kernel module load error: insmod: error inserting './usr/src/nv/nvidia.ko':

[03:47] <Slyboots> Whats what I get when I try to build the Nvidia drivers from the offical release
[03:47] <eubey> if i wanted to make my own customized debian distro, where would i go to start?
[03:48] <Romeo5k> nerdygirl_ellie i installed proftpd but cant figure out everything
[03:48] <jamman> Romeo5k, try "sudo apt-get install proftpd"
[03:48] <jamman> Romeo5k, what do you want?
[03:48] <unagi_> so it is in no way possible to use a mac program on linux
[03:48] <FruitLoop> Help me! I found a howto the other day explaining how to install Ubuntu through a net-boot method, using a separate machine to "serve" the install files to the target computer through the ethernet.., but today I seem to have gone browser blind or stupid cos I can't find it. Anyone know the link I am thinking of any similar page?
[03:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: one sec.
[03:48] <Romeo5k> jamman: how to add users and create folders... its online and everything for www
[03:48] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: is the port number > 5500?
[03:48] <HHP2K> I tried to follow some directions to enable a five-button mouse, and it included editing the xorg.conf file. When I restarted the computer, it showed that it can't start the X server because of an error in the xorg.conf file, regarding the mouse changes. It disables  the X server and brings me to a terminal-like black page. But, I can't do anything on it. I'm running ubuntu off the CD right now, but I need to know how to revert the xo
[03:48] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can connect to it from ftp client
[03:48] <sdouble> i'm gong through man vncviewer, but I haven't seen anything yet
[03:49] <jamman> Romeo5k, inside or outside your local network?
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can outside
[03:49] <Frogzoo> FruitLoop: you do know about firefox's bookmarks?
[03:49] <spinexorz> i just did a dist-upgrade and now ubuntu-desktop complains about unconfigured packages, i odnt know what to do i tried to reinstall them and apt-get leaves them unconfigured, what do i do?
[03:49] <sdouble> nerdygirl_ellie: I set the port to a custom port on the server because I want to be able to access all of my computers from outside the network
[03:49] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble:  it's vncviewer ip.ad.dr.ess:nnnn  where nnnn is the port number - 5500.
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can give u IP.. and usrname and pswrd
[03:49] <jamman> Romeo5k, but not inside?
[03:49] <Romeo5k> jamman: i can inside too
[03:50] <sdouble> hmmm, I tried that.  and in man, it says ip:display
[03:50] <jamman> So whats wrong then Romeo5k?
[03:50] <unagi_> so it is in no way possible to use a mac program on linux
[03:50] <Jordan_U> Romeo5k, This is sort of an example, there isn't much to see other than the windows themselves http://bioinfo.hku.hk/MouseAtlas/Introduction/MouseAtlas_intro/cygxf3.jpg
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble:  if it's listening on port 5540, then it would be x.x.x.x:40
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> sdouble: kind of silly to do it that way, but I didn't write the software.
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: how to create 3 users.. and each one have their sepearate home folder.. what i plan on doing is running a TBdev on it
[03:50] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Not possible, they use libraries that don't exist for Linux
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: im desiging my own
[03:50] <nerdygirl_ellie> what's tbdev?
[03:50] <Romeo5k> jamman: and i wanna use this as a test
[03:51] <sdouble> yeah, that is kind of silly.  I'll try that out.  Thanks.
[03:51] <Frogzoo> FruitLoop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot & https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[03:51] <unagi_> Jordan_U:  do you know of any 3d tracking software for linux?
[03:51] <spinexorz> i just did a dist-upgrade and now ubuntu-desktop complains about unconfigured packages, i odnt know what to do i tried to reinstall them and apt-get leaves them unconfigured, what do i do?
[03:51] <Jordan_U> unagi_, Not off hand, doesn't mean there isn't any
[03:51] <jamman> Romeo5k, ok, use the "sudo adduser --home /place/to/dir"
[03:51] <Romeo5k> nerdygirl_ellie: tbdev = php already prewritten for a site
[03:51] <jamman> Romeo5k, ok, use the "sudo adduser --home /place/to/dir name_of_user"
[03:51] <nerdygirl_ellie> neat.
[03:52] <jamman> sorry, Romeo5k, use the second one.
[03:52] <Romeo5k> jamman: kk
[03:52] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Were you trying to upgrade to a different version of Ubuntu?
[03:52] <jamman> Romeo5k, that'll do you in nicely...
[03:52] <FruitLoop> Frogzoo: thanks.. thats the one I lost.
[03:52] <spinexorz> yes from dapper to edgy
[03:52] <sdouble> works great.  thanks for the help nerdygirl_ellie
[03:52] <nerdygirl_ellie> yeah!
[03:53] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, seding your sources.list and dist-upgrading is *not* the correct way to upgrade
[03:53] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | spinexorz
[03:53] <ubotu> spinexorz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:53] <happyface> how can I disable the ESD sound daemon?
[03:54] <morozco> que hubo pues, como est[an todos
[03:54] <happyface> whoa its easy, nevermind
[03:54] <nerdygirl_ellie> hola morozco.
[03:54] <morozco> Holaaaa
[03:54] <augusto> duvidas no iptables
[03:54] <spinexorz> then why is there a feature for it?
[03:54] <morozco> de donde eres nerdgirld
[03:54] <sdouble> Morodock: #ubuntu-es para espanol
[03:54] <sdouble> oops
[03:54] <sdouble> morozco: #ubuntu-es para espanol
[03:54] <spinexorz> i got rid of all the custom entries in sources.list and dist-upgraded
[03:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> morozco: Nashville, Tennessee, Centennial hospital
[03:55] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What do you mean why is there a feature for it?
[03:55] <jamman> morozco, quiero a hablar con tu en espanol.
[03:55] <nerdygirl_ellie> gracias sdouble.
[03:55] <sdouble> de nada
[03:55] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i mean update-manager -c
[03:55] <nick0> hola gente
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, That is the correct way to upgrade, is that what you did?
[03:56] <spinexorz> yes
[03:56] <nerdygirl_ellie> ... which would be a neat trick on a laptop.
[03:56] <sdouble> though that was about the extent of my spanish  =P
[03:56] <morozco> listo
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Nvm then :)
[03:56] <static> .///
[03:56] <nick0> does anyone know how to configure th fn key on a vaio???
[03:56] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, now ubuntu-desktop wont install
[03:56] <morozco> ok jaman
[03:56] <morozco> yo hablo espanol
[03:56] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Can you pastebin the error it gives?
[03:56] <bill__> anybody have any ideas on How i can get a DNs server started on my Ubuntu Fiesty
[03:56] <nick0> does anyone know how to configure th fn key on a vaio???
[03:57] <nick0> on ubuntu feisty fawn
[03:57] <eubey> how do i tell if i have the madwifi ng drivers installed?
[03:57] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, as long as it works with elinks
[03:57] <spinexorz> lol
[03:57] <jamman> morozco, mi tambien, pero, yo no bueno a hablar espanol. yo hablo una ano.
[03:57] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: configure it to do what?
[03:57] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, brb
 on ubuntu feisty fawn was that ment for me?
[03:57] <nick0> nerdygirl_ellie: brightness, sound, etc
[03:57] <nick0> u kno the normal functions
[03:57] <shiester_miester> which in your opinions is better: inkscape or adobe illustrator (assuming one has both)?
[03:57] <nick0> i already tried with fnfx but that didnt do it
[03:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: it should work for display brightness automagically.
[03:58] <Mac120> hows everyone
[03:58] <morozco> no te preocupes jaman
[03:58] <nick0> well the fn key is dead
[03:58] <sdouble> shiester_miester: illustrator unfortunately.  =/
[03:58] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, preety much it complains about some packages specifically acpid wich is needed for ubuntu-desktop
[03:58] <nerdygirl_ellie> inkscape isn't there yet.
[03:58] <sdouble> Though inkscape is nice.
[03:58] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[03:58] <RickH> Mac120:  Working in the coal mine (whoop!) I get along now... :)
[03:58] <Jordan_U> shiester_miester, Try xara extreme
[03:58] <shiester_miester> can inkscape edit .ai files?
[03:58] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it says the dependencies are there but unconfigured
[03:59] <bill__> or is having a dns server on Ubuntu bad
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: yes, but you'll get wierdness if you try to switch back and forth.
[03:59] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What about when you run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:59] <sdouble> xara xtreme is closer, but I still prefer illustrator.  I was unable to try Skencil because it requires an older python
[03:59] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: why would you think having a dns server on ubuntu is bad?
[03:59] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i tried dpkg-reconfigure... no cigar
[03:59] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, oh ok...damn
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: I have several ubuntu dns servers...
[03:59] <fiXXXerMet> What is the serial port in ubuntu? (/dev/xxx)
[03:59] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, let me see
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> Hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu, but my USB headset neither has sound nor records...  any ideas?
[03:59] <bill__> Iam just having trouble setting one up
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: How can I help
[03:59] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, how about xara?  can that edit .ai files acceptably?
[03:59] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: bind9?
[03:59] <bill__> Let me get ya error
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> BTW - Jordan, thanks for your help...  I extracted the tarball and it had an automatic installer for me
[03:59] <bill__> yea bind 9
[03:59] <RickH> Spaceman3750:  Is your headset broken? :P
[03:59] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, look up your model and number in the forum
[03:59] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: dunno.
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> No
[03:59] <bill__> It says C compiler cant make executables
[03:59] <Spaceman3750> It works in Windows
[04:00] <shiester_miester> dammit...xara is commercial software
[04:00] <nick0> anyone kno how to configure the fn key to work?
[04:00] <Spaceman3750> But not in Ubuntu
[04:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: what's the trouble?
[04:00] <bill__> Bind9
[04:00] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, look up your model and number in the forum
[04:00] <KI4IKL> I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150...how can I make sure the drivers are working correctly?
[04:00] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: Your installing from source instead of package?
[04:00] <bill__> says when compiling C compiler cant make executables
[04:00] <shiester_miester> inkscape it is :(
[04:00] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, no output whatsoever
[04:00] <bill__> Wait theres a package?
[04:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: thou shalt not compile from source.  You want the packaged bind.
[04:00] <cotyrothery> Can someon tell me how i would format my hard drive to be all 0 and no trace of ANYTHING like linux or old partions
[04:00] <bill__> ah
[04:00] <bill__> :D
[04:00] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, zeroing it won't remove all traces :P
[04:00] <nick0> can anyone give me a hand with this fn key plz?
[04:00] <jamman> ok, morozco. dice bueno.
[04:00] <nerdygirl_ellie> bill__: it's called.... "bind" :)
[04:00] <bill__> Synaptic package?
[04:00] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: if you have it setup this is your friend:  aptitude
[04:00] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: what will
[04:01] <Pelo> nick0,  what is the issue ?
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, throw it in a fire
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, and then melt it
[04:01] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, no output whatsoever
[04:01] <nick0> Pelo:spanish?
[04:01] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: oh if your using X then yea use synaptic.  If your going command line use aptitude
[04:01] <Pelo> !es | nick0
[04:01] <ubotu> nick0: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, its pretty much impossible to make it physically impossible to recover any data from a disk
[04:01] <cotyrothery> Please i really need to know what programe or what to do to make it so i can reinstall windows without it freaking out
[04:01] <spinexorz> nick0, cual es el problema?
[04:01] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, don't know my model number
[04:01] <nerdygirl_ellie> nick0: sorry I can't help, it's always just worked for me.
[04:01] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you're going to have to settle for "good enough"
[04:01] <nick0> Pelo: basically im trying to configure the fn functions on this vaio fs920
[04:01] <Slyboots> Look, I cant get these nvidia drivers to work
[04:01] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, read it from the lable
[04:01] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:01] <nick0> Pelo: basically im trying to configure the fn functions on this vaio fs920
[04:02] <RickH> I don't understand why we have such a time with Nvidia drivers.
[04:02] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it really depends on how well you want to hide the data
[04:02] <Nutubuntu> Is there a way to issue a pair of 'sudo modprobe' commands each time I restart?
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <TheNo1Yeti> ./quit
[04:02] <bill__> AH
[04:02] <Slyboots> X crashes with a "sh" /sbin/lrm-video: not found, FATAL: error running install command for nvidia"
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> No, not dot
[04:02] <bill__> :D
[04:02] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: I want it gone as much as i can possibley get rid of it
[04:02] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, It would help to have the full output, can you run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop tee output.txt
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <Pelo> nick0, I have no clue,  maybe you can do someting with menu > system > prefs > keybaord shortcuts
[04:02] <nerdygirl_ellie> shiester_miester: grinding the disk to powder works.... and melting.  Other than that, it might come back.
[04:02] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, it doesn't have one, it was originally designed to use for SOCOM with PS2.  It has SOCOM branding instead of the Logitech info
[04:02] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, formatting will get rid of it
[04:02] <bill__> Ok installed
[04:02] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, thats what i said earlier :P
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <Me_Me_Me> Two friends, /part and /quit, entered a bar. One of the friends, /part, who had blue hair left. Who was still in the bar?
[04:02] <nick0> Pelo: nah, that didnt work :S its drivin me crazy
[04:03] <nerdygirl_ellie> mod, please?
[04:03] <asc> cotyrothery: There's a program called 'wipe' which is probably the closest you can get in software, short of Eraser. 'sudo wipe -rq /dev/disk' will overwrite it four times with random data.
[04:03] <bill__> And service started
[04:03] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: No because i have done that and when i try to reinstall windows at the end it says can not create user partion
[04:03] <Pelo> Spaceman3750, then try a forum search for  usb headset , that might turn up something
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it won't make it untraceable, but as far as the computer knows, it wasn't there.  just format the partitions, delete them and reformat the free space as new partitions for something else
[04:03] <cotyrothery> someone tolled me to do a low input output formate
[04:03] <bill__> Now i just need to find it
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you dont need to do that
[04:03] <Spaceman3750> K, thanks Pelo :)
[04:03] <TheNo1Yeti> bill: /etc/bind
[04:03] <Pelo> nick0,  that was my best shot,
[04:03] <asc> cotyrothy: If you're really determined to get rid of it, shredding and melting down the disk is a good idea. Not quite sure where you'd get the facilities for that though.
[04:03] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if the partitions arent in the partition table then windows wont even see them
[04:03] <fiXXXerMet> What is the serial port in ubuntu? (/dev/xxx)
[04:03] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: i have formated this one drive 10 times in a row
[04:03] <Justi2> is it just me, or do adobe servers suck?
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, formatting a partition is not the same as removing it from the partition table
[04:04] <bill__> Awesomes ness
[04:04] <nick0> Pelo: its all good bud
[04:04] <Pelo> fiXXXerMet,   dev/tty....
[04:04] <nick0> Pelo: danke anyway
[04:04] <Nutubuntu> cotyrothery, one possibility would be to zero out Track 0 using one of the utils found on Ultimate Boot Disk ... that might resolve the problem with a partition table that just doesn't seem to go away
[04:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: are you trying to hide evidence of porn or terrorism?  for porn, formatting should be fine.  for terrorism, smash the drive to bits with a sledgehammer.
[04:04] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok how do i remove it from the partion table
[04:04] <unagi_> how do you compile binaries?
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, use some partitioning software and just delete it completely
[04:04] <nerdygirl_ellie> !compile
[04:04] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[04:04] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, how to do that specifically depends on the software
[04:04] <regfire> !compile
[04:04] <bill__> Ok would anybody mind helping me Config it In PM there is too many people talking here
[04:05] <fiXXXerMet> /dev/tty ?
[04:05] <cotyrothery> No i just need to get rid of linux partions because windows acts funny when trying to install it
[04:05] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, the partition editor in the ubuntu live cd should be able to do it for you
[04:05] <Pelo> bill__,  config what exactly ?
[04:05] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Then you can copy over output.txt to another computer
[04:05] <unagi_> bill__: its not hard to talk in here
[04:05] <bill__> to use the domain xitz.net
[04:05] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, dont format them, tell it to delete/remove the partitions altogether
[04:05] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok how let me open it real quick
[04:05] <Spaceman3750> Pelo, thanks for the help, just a misconfiguration...  It works good now :D
[04:05] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.  Any ideas?
[04:05] <Spaceman3750> I'm an Ubuntu noob, so bear with me :P
[04:05] <Pelo> Spaceman3750,  the forum is your friend
[04:05] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: do you mean leave it with out a partion?
[04:06] <Spaceman3750> I know...  After modding a PC help forum for over a year, I should know that :P
[04:06] <nick0> Pelo: whats the name of the spanish support channel??
[04:06] <bill__> well brb
[04:06] <Pelo> !ex | nick0
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, yep, get rid of them altogether.  I'm assuming you arent actually USING that partition for anything?
[04:06] <nerdygirl_ellie> !es
[04:06] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:06] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: no its my second drive and i want windows on it
[04:06] <Jordan_U> spinexorz,  Actually the command would be "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | tee output.txt" ( forgot the pipe )
[04:06] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, for example, running an ubuntu install off of it that you are using right now
[04:06] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: should i use fdisk?
[04:07] <xtknight> im told to place a file in /etc/hotplug/ ("Copy this to /etc/hotplug/usb/Argyll.usermap")...where is this on ubuntu feisty?  it has /etc/hotplug.d/
[04:07] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, it doesnt really matter, anything that gets rid of partitions will do the job.  the linux one or fdisk should acheive the same results, afaik
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> If I were deleting partitions on my second hard drive, I would sudo fdisk /dev/sdb and use m for help, probably d for delete, and then w to save the changes.
[04:07] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: so let me get this straight all i do is delete it completely nothing else?
[04:07] <nerdygirl_ellie> In windows I would use fdisk and 3 to delete partitions, then 4 to remove non-dos partitions.
[04:08] <nerdygirl_ellie> ... and yes, sometimes it is all about me. :D
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if its gone, its gone.  the computer will consider it as free, unpartitioned space
[04:08] <shiester_miester> if its not in the partition table, that is
[04:08] <cotyrothery> ok
[04:08] <phatcat> anyone here mess with software raid via mdadm?
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> Is there a way to issue a pair of 'sudo modprobe' commands each time I restart the computer? (sudo modprobe visor && sudo modprobe usbserial)
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  yes
[04:08] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: how do i delete it out of the partion table
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, and then you can boot up the windows cd and you should be able to create partitions all you want
[04:08] <phatcat> could you give me a quick overview of hte process?
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> gtg in a couple of minutes, phatcat, but what do you want to know?
[04:08] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if you removed the partition then its not in the partition table
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: ok and im using a recovery cd
[04:09] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, did it disappear and get replaced by "free space" or something?
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: its a pack of 8
[04:09] <phatcat> does mdadm require formatted partitions before you create a raidset
[04:09] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it doenst get the full output
[04:09] <fiXXXerMet> How do I find out which tty my serial connection is on?
[04:09] <Nutubuntu> phatcat, I'm no expert :(    I can tell you how I set it up, if that helps, but it's probably not the only way to go
[04:09] <bill__> Anybody familiar with BIND mind helping me
[04:09] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: i haven't done it yet but im about to
[04:09] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, brb im gonna do this over SSH from a laptop
[04:09] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[04:09] <bill__> Getting it to work with my domain
[04:09] <andre_> I am new to linux. I need a little help. I try to execute a program in the terminal using the "./example" but, I get permission denied. What am I doing wrong?
[04:09] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Ok
[04:10] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  now that I think for a second, no, you create the RAID then you format
[04:10] <Spaceman3750> Anybody know of any remote access software that I can run on Windows and have access to my Ubuntu box?
[04:10] <Spaceman3750> Namely over the internet
[04:10] <asc> andre_: Try using 'sh ./example'. If that doesn't work, 'sudo ./example' should.
[04:10] <nerdygirl_ellie> Nutubuntu: Hi.  In Ubuntu, you can set something to automatically modprobe by creating an entry for it in /etc/modprobe.d.
[04:10] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, i think the reason u were confused is because you were thinking that if there is data there then the computer can't write to it.  that's not true...the partition table is used to tell it which areas of the disk are being used or not.  if an area isn't in the partition table then as far as the computer knows, it can put whatever it wants there
[04:10] <phatcat> have you had trouble with it?  (as in, mdadm finds more raidsets than you created on reboot)?
[04:10] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: the only reason i want windows is for wow
[04:10] <regfire> ah
[04:10] <Nutubuntu> nerdygirl_ellie,  thank you everso :)
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  no
[04:11] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, you can play wow in wine though
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Do you want a console or a gui?
[04:11] <Spaceman3750> GUI
[04:11] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: yea but i only get 2 fps
[04:11] <tofaffy> ahh...beryl is a bit odd ...I hover over a window in the window pane...it sorta highlights it and sorta doesn't...any ideas?
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Nutubuntu: sometimes just running sudo depmod -a will make it "just work"  Ymmv on that.
[04:11] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: there are a few options.
[04:11] <asc> andre: Or try 'chmod +x example' (to make it executable) then './example'... hmm.
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> t/y again :) nerdygirl_ellie
[04:11] <Spaceman3750> Any free?
[04:11] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, have you tried messing with your graphics drivers, or wine settings? or asking the guys in #winehq?
[04:11] <phatcat> Butubuntu: what version of buntu did you use when you ran it?
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  gtg ... will be back later tonight, though
[04:11] <phatcat> sorry, nutbuntu
[04:12] <Nutubuntu> phatcat,  I was using Feisty
[04:12] <phatcat> thanks
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: well i have done what the ubuntu community guide has said and it does not help
[04:12] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.  Any ideas?
[04:12] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, world of warcraft has gold status in wine, meaning it should work perfectly
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: well it goes really slow
[04:12] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Yes.  FreeNx works really well.  And so does VNC.  I haven't configured either on Ubuntu, but I know they work.
[04:12] <shiester_miester> hmm ok
[04:12] <phatcat> anyone else use mdadm + sw raid?
[04:12] <regfire> coty http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine is a great reference for wow in wine
[04:12] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: Hey what if i took all the dll from my windows cd and put them in wine
[04:12] <cotyrothery> would that owrk
[04:12] <cotyrothery> work
[04:13] <shiester_miester> cotyrothery, if it didn't have the dlls that it needed then it wouldnt work
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> nerdygirl_ellie: Great, thanks a lot.  I will give those a try :D.
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: and if you are connecting from a linux box, you can export an X session across ssh... but I can't help you with that one either. :)
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> Naah, the other will be WinVista
[04:13] <cotyrothery> shiester_miester: no would putting all the windows dlls in wine make it work better
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: FreeNX is probably the best of what I've used.
[04:13] <asc> TheCreationist: It means that you can't write to the filesystem. This can be because it was mounted read-only at boot, or because there were errors which caused it to be remounted read-only after boot. Have you ever been able to modify files on that filesystem>
[04:13] <Spaceman3750> Great, thanks :D
[04:13] <nerdygirl_ellie> Spaceman3750: Good luck.
[04:13] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, I have heard that that works in some instances where the wine dlls are incomplete but can actually be worse for some dll's
[04:14] <Spaceman3750> Thanks, I need it.  New to Ubuntu :P
[04:14] <gcarrillo> hi all
[04:14] <asc> Spaceman3750: You can also do it in windows using cywgin... but it's very very slow.
[04:14] <asc> (exporting an X session I mean)
[04:14] <cotyrothery> Jordan_U: so would putting every known windows dll in wine fix my problem
[04:14] <gcarrillo> how do you get native resolution in a virtual terminal with a widescreen monitor?
[04:14] <Spaceman3750> If I can't use the other, I will give that a try
[04:14] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. Any idea?
[04:14] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, I doubt it
[04:14] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: no
[04:15] <cotyrothery> man i just want to play wow so bad
[04:15] <gcarrillo> haha
[04:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: is it just slow?  If so, do you have 3d accelerated video in linux?
[04:15] <Fezzler> Does anyone know the command line instruction to check that I have the right FLashplayer installed for Firefox
[04:15] <Jordan_U> cotyrothery, WoW is supposed to run great in wine
[04:15] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/d1f0fdae
[04:15] <cotyrothery> I have 3D acc.
[04:15] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, there
[04:15] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: You have two ways of doing this.  The way that will teach you something about windows or the easy way that will cost you $5
[04:15] <nerdygirl_ellie> dpkg -l flash-nonfree
[04:16] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: dpkg -l flash-nonfree
[04:16] <cotyrothery> TheNo1Yeti: 5$ as in cedega?
[04:16] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: Yea
[04:16] <cotyrothery> no room on credit card
[04:16] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i dont why there should be dependency issues
[04:16] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: I set mine up in wine the first time, figured out how to do it and didn't want to deal with the headache the second time.  So I used cedega (which is just a smart ui for wine)
[04:16] <Fezzler> Is that true if I installed Flash from Adobe site too?
[04:17] <cotyrothery> TheNo1Yeti:  how well does it work?
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Wow on linux in 3 steps.  1.  Get 3d graphics working on linux.  You should be able to play tuxracer at 30fps or more.  2. enable the wine repo in your sources list and update.  3.  run wine wow.exe
[04:17] <mcfisherprice> !smartphone
[04:17] <ubotu> A guide to syncing smartphones can be found here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=86302
[04:17] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: no, that installs a different way.
[04:17] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: I have done that even set it to openGL
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i have an 1810 gfx card
[04:18] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: Works great.  Haven't had an issue since.  But honestly it is worth it to learn how to set it up with wine imo.  And for your dll question you only technically need like 1 dll I think
[04:18] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, What happens if you run: sudo apt-get -f install
[04:18] <cotyrothery> i mean i810 gfx card
[04:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: can you run tuxracer at a decent clip?
[04:18] <TheNo1Yeti> !tripwire
[04:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tripwire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:18] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: haven't tried
[04:18] <Fezzler> Well, I installed from adobe site.  Can someone walk we through from scratch
[04:18] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: try it, we'll wait. :0
[04:18] <TheCreationist> asc: I don't recall if I've ever edited the filesystem since installing Feisty.  In fact, I don't think I did.  I was able to add songs TO the player, but can't remove them.
[04:19] <asc> cotyrothery: I also have an i810. I think that WoW might be somewhat outside its' capabilities.
[04:19] <shiester_miester> what the hell is that :/
[04:19] <shiester_miester> netsplit?
[04:19] <TheCreationist> shiester_miester: Netsplit.
[04:19] <d4rkmonkey> !ipod

[04:19] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: well im installing ubuntu right now so let me finish that first
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> hehe.
[04:19] <TheCreationist> shiester_miester: One of the servers went down.
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> what's a netsplit?
[04:19] <kitche> shiester_miester: they are doing maintence
[04:19] <asc> TheCreationist: Is it FAT or NTFS by any chance?
[04:19] <nerdygirl_ellie> oh, neat.
[04:19] <cotyrothery> asc: no it runs great on my freinds who has windows
[04:19] <TheCreationist> asc: I believe it's a FAT system.
[04:19] <shiester_miester> nerdygirl_ellie, netsplit, afaik, is when 2 irc servers lose connection between each other
[04:20] <bruenig> !netsplit
[04:20] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: and he has a i810
[04:20] <nerdygirl_ellie> cotyrothery: it is "one of the most tested wine apps, ever" :)
[04:20] <asc> cotyrothery: I stand corrected but skeptical.
[04:20] <Fezzler> Do people here have Flash running fine under 7.04?
[04:20] <nivekc1> im having trouble installing google earth im following the directions and it says to change to the directory where it and it is on the desktop so that should be default command location right? run the chmod command and i did that but it says that the googleearthlinux.bin does not exist? im so lost lol.

[04:20] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:20] <Fezzler> I can't get Youtube clips to play.  Says I either don't have FLash or Java
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: plus i have a 2.20 ghz processor
[04:20] <TheCreationist> Fezzler: Without a problem, yes.
[04:20] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, pretty much the same output
[04:20] <bruenig> Fezzler, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree (if it crashes your browser often, then you know it is working)
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: and 1 gb of ram
[04:20] <cotyrothery> asc: so it should even out
[04:20] <Belboz99> hey, I'm still having issues with nvidia kernel module:
[04:20] <Belboz99> dan@htpc:/lib/linux-restricted-modules$ sudo modprobe nvidia
[04:20] <Belboz99> FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[04:20] <asc> cotyrothery: I have 2.4 and 768 but I can barely run halo.
[04:20] <KI4IKL> for some reason, every once in a while, my mou8se locks up. What can I do to fix this?
[04:20] <TheNo1Yeti> lol @ bruenig
[04:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> Fezzler: yes, you can get it from the commercial repo and then apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ... yes, what they said.
[04:21] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay, we can probably fix that. Just a second.
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <cotyrothery> asc: my freinds preccesor is 666 mhz
[04:21] <sandeep> my relteck ac97 soundcard not detected
[04:21] <bruenig> flashplugin-nonfree is in multiverse not the commercial repo
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <kbrooks> how do i mount/scan for NFS hosts?
[04:21] <kbrooks> !nfs
[04:21] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[04:21] <nerdygirl_ellie> sorry about that.
[04:21] <cotyrothery> asc: and he only has 512 mb of ram
[04:21] <TheCreationist> !repeat | kbrooks
[04:21] <ubotu> kbrooks: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[04:21] <asc> cotyrothery: Maybe WoW has much lower system requirements than I thought it would.
[04:22] <cotyrothery> asc: no it tells him that his system requirements are low
[04:22] <TheCreationist> cotyrothery, asc - I can't play ANY of my games under Linux because they all use DirectX... grr.
[04:22] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, what about: sudo apt-get install powermanagement-interface
[04:22] <Fezzler> Okay, "apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" tells me I have the lastest installed.  Step 1.  Step 2. How can I tell if I have Java or the right one?
[04:22] <cotyrothery> asc: but it runs at 20 fps on his computere
[04:22] <nerdygirl_ellie> em.. I don't think so.  Wow is clunky at 512 for me.  maybe if the server isn't busy, but I can't imagine it in a 30 man.
[04:22] <bill__> WOW i cant edit any of the Files
[04:22] <bill__> :(
[04:22] <cotyrothery> TheCreationist: None of them use openGL
[04:22] <TheCreationist> Fezzler: To test my flash, I always just go to www.ebaumsworld.com and try to watch a video.
[04:23] <asc> TheCreationist: Uh, let's see. Do 'sudo gedit /etc/fstab' in a terminal. Then we need to find the line for the FAT filesystem. Should have the word 'vfat' in it.
[04:23] <sandeep> my ac97 soundcard not working
[04:23] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. Any idea?
[04:23] <bruenig> !samba
[04:23] <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
[04:23] <TheNo1Yeti> herdygirl: I tend to run between 5-20fps on a 2.4 with 512 ram & 256 ram on graphics card.  Only thing I can't figure out is how to up the resolution beyond 800x600.
[04:23] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, my mp3 player isn't listed in fstab
[04:24] <RickH> I was just able to get my Nvidia drivers loaded.
[04:24] <nerdygirl_ellie> I'm leaving, time for more hydromorphone.  night all.
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: That's okay, we're looking for the filesystem.
[04:24] <bruenig> TheCreationist, it shouldn't be
[04:24] <cotyrothery> nerdygirl_ellie: im about to restart with a fresh install of ubuntu
[04:24] <RickH> Had to issue "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" in order to install properly.
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: Oh, wait. You're talking about an external mp3 mplayer aren't you.
[04:24] <Fezzler> Creation:  Even that site says I need Flash.  But we established I have FLash.
[04:24] <cotyrothery> You'll have to tell me what the app is again
[04:24] <Fezzler> ??? Java ???
[04:24] <TheCreationist> asc: Yes :)
[04:24] <RickH> Used the actual nvidia driver from their website.  No problems.  Beryl works great.
[04:24] <Fezzler> Firefox setting?
[04:24] <KI4IKL> My mouse has a bad habit of locking up, is there a way for me to fix that?
[04:24] <asc> TheCreationist: That's going to be a little more tricky. Is it mounted somewhere?
[04:24] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it says it is allready there then it spits out the same output i pastebined, which inform me it isnt confgiured
[04:25] <TheCreationist> asc: It is in MSC mode, if that matters (since trying to use MTP does no good whatsoever)
[04:25] <TheCreationist> asc: It's mounted at /medica/SANSA E260
[04:25] <asc> TheCreationist: I don't know, I've never done this before. :)
[04:25] <cotyrothery> ok im restarting
[04:25] <bruenig> Fezzler, how do you know you have flash
[04:25] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Try: sudo dpkg --configure powermanagement-interface
[04:25] <yigal> TheCreationist: you have to evolve
[04:25] <TheCreationist> yigal: Meaning?
[04:25] <RickH> bruenig:  Look in the plugins directory, or just go to YouTube and try to play something.
[04:26] <yigal> TheCreationist: :) jk , just teasing about your name, low blow sorry im drunk
[04:26] <bruenig> RickH, I was asking him how he knew, not asking for advice
[04:26] <TheCreationist> yigal: Ah.. gotcha ;)
[04:26] <asc> TheCreationist: In terminal, 'sudo nautilus /MEDIA/SANSA\ E260'
[04:26] <RickH> bruenig:  I'm not sure there's a way I could've known that from your statement. :P  Many apologies though. :)
[04:26] <Fezzler> bruenig: Because when I try to install it Ubuntu tells me I have the lastest verison
[04:26] <ToastedPine> ...first time without windows, I feel like I'm on another planet.
[04:26] <pike_> .
[04:26] <bruenig> Fezzler, what does about:plugins in firefox tell you
[04:26] <bill__> Oh Jesus Im not the owner
[04:26] <yigal> ToastedPine: you are its called human :)
[04:27] <asc> TheCreationist: That will open it as root user in the file manager... but that might not help. Try copying a file in.
[04:27] <ToastedPine> the planet is called human?
[04:27] <yigal> ToastedPine: Windows is inhumane, and Ubuntu is humane
[04:27] <TheCreationist> asc: Well, I've tried the sudo rm -r on those files.  But root nautilus still won't allow me to delete.
[04:27] <yigal> ToastedPine: Go FIgure
[04:27] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay. Was it mounted automatically?
[04:27] <TheCreationist> asc: Yes, as soon as I plugged in the USB cable.
[04:28] <Fezzler> How can I check if I have Java installed for Firefox?
[04:28] <duanarchy> Can somebofu please help me get DRI working for my ati xpress 200 card?
[04:28] <yigal> Fezzler: try a yahoo game
[04:28] <ToastedPine> I just set up my firestarter but it's blocking network access to my other PC
[04:28] <ToastedPine> is there a way I can fix that?
[04:28] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, powermanagement-interface says it needs acip wich isnt configured then if i try to configure that then it says /proc/acpid/event device or resource busy
[04:28] <yigal> ToastedPine: yes it is very restrictive
[04:28] <pike_> ToastedPine: what kind of network access?
[04:28] <yigal> ToastedPine: at first
[04:28] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, powermanagement-interface says it needs acip wich isnt configured then if i try to configure that then it says /proc/acpid/event device or resource busy
[04:29] <ToastedPine> umm, it's just a windows one, where I put share folder
[04:29] <bruenig> Fezzler, go to about:plugins in firefox location bar
[04:29] <yigal> ToastedPine: I use my own iptables script but others will know how to tone it down a bit so you can use it to your advantage
[04:29] <ToastedPine> I have a wireless router
[04:29] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, well now we at least know the root error
[04:29] <johndoc> my laptop's highest resolution is 1440x900x32 and the highest option i have by default in feisty is 1280x800
[04:29] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it errors on acpid, im sure thats the main problem im having
[04:29] <vviO> Hello I need support my LAN s not working
[04:29] <odat> how do you add a new nic card on an already installed system?
[04:29] <ToastedPine> it works fine if I kill the firewall
[04:29] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay, we're going to have some fun. do 'df' in a terminal. One of the lines (probably the last) should represent the player. At the left, find its' device (probably '/dev/sd-something)
[04:29] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, i was about to say that :)
[04:29] <yigal> johndoc: what kind of driver are you using?
[04:29] <Fezzler> Yahoo games crashed / closed Firefox
[04:29] <CppIsWeird> you mean i have to add the machine name of every machine specifically i want to have the ability to browse my computer?
[04:29] <yigal> Fezzler: not good, thats very ood
[04:29] <johndoc> yigal: hate to sound n00b but beats me, whatever feisty defaulted
[04:30] <TheCreationist> asc: /dev/sdb1
[04:30] <yigal> excuse me s/ood/odd
[04:30] <pike_> johndoc: type 'grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf' what is the last Driver "" shown?
[04:30] <bruenig> Fezzler, holy fuck, go to about:plugins or gfto
[04:30] <yigal> johndoc: what card do you have
[04:30] <yigal> johndoc: lspci | grep vga
[04:30] <johndoc> 950gm iirc
[04:31] <asc> TheCreationist: The 'sudo umount /dev/device' 'sudo mount -o rw /dev/device /media/whatever/' and try modifying the files again.
[04:31] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, I get the same error when I try to cat /proc/acpi/event
[04:31] <yigal> johndoc:  lspci | grep -i vga
[04:31] <asc> The = try
[04:31] <nivekc1> when i try to run google earth on feisty system logs off and takes me back to the login screen
[04:31] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Stab in the dark try booting with noacpi ?
[04:31] <yigal> johndoc: do you know how to use the terminal?
[04:31] <johndoc>  Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML
[04:31] <Jordan_U> nivekc1, Sounds like a driver issue
[04:31] <johndoc> Yeah I know cli
[04:31] <odat> how do you add a new nic card on an already installed system?
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: so what card do you have, its vital to your problem
[04:32] <asc> TheCreationist: There's probably a way to edit /etc/fstab so that when it mounts the player in the future it will automatically mount it rw... but when I tried that with my usb drive boot fails when it's not plugged in.
[04:32] <MSG4> Does anyone know if Ubuntu has HardwareSupportComponentsMotherboardsIntelSocket775Asus for ASUS P5LD2 R2.0  945P
[04:32] <johndoc> did that not tell you yigal?
[04:32] <pike_> odat: hopefully you just put the nick in, reboot and it is there. course sometimes it doesnt work that way
[04:32] <nivekc1> what kind of driver would cause this?
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: my bad dude, a bit drunk
[04:32] <johndoc> no problem yigal
[04:32] <yigal> johndoc: very good you have intel
[04:32] <odat> pike_ i can't seem to get the system to use it
[04:32] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, I mounted it with rw, but still can't modify.
[04:33] <yigal> johndoc: do you have beryl working, compiz?
[04:33] <johndoc> right, it says 945 but i was almost positive it was 950
[04:33] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, thanks for your help, il give that a try adn im gonna go lurking some forums for that error
[04:33] <johndoc> no, i do not have any of that stuff installed
[04:33] <johndoc> i probably wouldn't even know how
[04:33] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Tell me if / how you get it working
[04:33] <pike_> odat: cat /etc/iftab or sudo ifconfig -a  should display all the nics currently setup
[04:33] <yigal> johndoc: no worries
[04:33] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, ok
[04:33] <TheCreationist> asc: Nautilus doesn't even give the option of moving to trash.
[04:33] <asc> TheCreationist: Using sudo nautilus, right?
[04:33] <vviO> yigal i need support please
[04:34] <MSG4> its for the motherboard
[04:34] <TheCreationist> asc: Either.
[04:34] <johndoc> yigal: is there anyway to get the resolution i need without using beryl? surely so?
[04:34] <yigal> johndoc: i don't have intel it would be better to find someone who does
[04:34] <asc> TheCreationist: That's strange then.
[04:34] <odat> pike_ and if there are none?
[04:34] <yigal> johndoc: of course

[04:35] <pike_> odat: lspci -v or sudo lshw for the chipset info. then id probably start with a google search like 'site:ubuntuforums.org modelofniccard' youre more likely to get a good step by step just for your card on the forums

[04:40] <gcarrillo> id
[04:40] <vviO> yigal: how to find if its listed?
[04:40] <gcarrillo> asc: id
[04:40] <asc> gcarrillo: Thanks.
[04:40] <Jordan_U> !uuid | asc,
[04:40] <ubotu> asc,: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[04:41] <gcarrillo> np

[04:41] <MSG4> now
[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Okay. Do 'id' and find your id. It's probably 1000.
[04:41] <Jordan_U> johndoc, Nothing, it should "just work tm"
[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Or id -u like TheNo1Yeti said, which works better.
[04:41] <TheCreationist> asc: it is.
[04:41] <asc> TheCreationist: Then do... uh, just a second.
[04:42] <johndoc> Jordan_U: shouldn't I like restart something for it to work?
[04:42] <cotyrothery> What video drivers do i need
[04:42] <cotyrothery> i have a i810
[04:42] <Jordan_U> johndoc, Yes, restart X

[04:43] <CppIsWeird> you mean i have to add the machine name of every machine specifically i want to have the ability to browse my computer?
[04:43] <ste-foy> !en here ONLY ste-foy
[04:43] <CppIsWeird> oopse
[04:43] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[04:43] <yigal> CppIsWeird: if you want good security, then yes
[04:44] <asc> TheCreationist: Got it. Unmount the drive and mount with 'sudo mount -o uid=1000 /dev/device /media/whatever'
[04:44] <yigal> CppIsWeird: if you are using samba then no, but if you want good security then yes
[04:44] <asc> TheCreationist: That should mount it so that you can modify the files without even sudo. If it doesn't work, then I'm out of ideas other than google.
[04:44] <nivekc1> anyone know how to uninstall google earth?
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> anyways, I was trying to install a program from source using ./configure. I got past the first error I got by installing a package, but now it gives me "configure: error: libdvdcss is not installed. If you would not like to use libdvdcss or DVD functionality please use ./configure with --disable-dvd." when I try to install any packages close to libdvdcss, it tells me that theres no installation candidate, what s
[04:44] <d4rkmonkey> hould I do?
[04:44] <TheNo1Yeti> nivekc1: how did you install it?  source?
[04:44] <ziroday> nivekc1: delete the file it installed
[04:45] <coopster> So, I'm building a file server with 4 hard disks of various sizes, and I have partitioned them off into partitions of the same size, and I have 3 RAIDs (2 level 5, 1 level 1) that I want to use for storage.  Can I make a RAID0 of those three RAIDs?
[04:45] <cotyrothery> what type of video drivers do i need for an i810
[04:45] <rustalot> is there a package that has a backend to a thesarus &/OR a dictionary with definitions, so my app could look up words?
[04:45] <Justi2> why does my sound not work at times?
[04:45] <nivekc1> installed from .bin file using terminal but when i try to remove i dont know what the name of it is
[04:45] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, well that threw an error saying it couldn't find the mount point I chose in fstab.
[04:45] <Jordan_U> Thaddeus, If he installed it from source then he stole the source from Google :)
[04:45] <TheCreationist> asc: But I know that when it mounts automatically, it lists me as the owner...
[04:45] <spinexorz> Jordan_U, it seems killing hald and doing a sudo dpkg --configure -a fixed my problems, i still get the device or resource busy for /proc/acpi/event but everything else went ok, now i have to recompile the drivers for mt ATI card
[04:45] <CppIsWeird> yigal, how do i just get my windows computer access to my ubuntu computer.
[04:45] <asc> TheCreationist: Uh. It shouldn't do that. :p
[04:45] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: If your using something like aptitude then you might want to turn on multiverse or universe support.  With Synaptic also I think
[04:46] <asc> TheCreationist: Try using the same command line as when it did mount but adding 'uid=1000' to the -o section?
[04:46] <yigal> nivekc1: it becomes more difficult, you should first update your local database for files, "sudo updatedb"
[04:46] <Jordan_U> spinexorz, Why not just use the packaged drivers?
[04:46] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, ok I'll try that
[04:46] <TheCreationist> asc: Uhm, now I can't mount it at all because it isn't found in fstab.
[04:46] <yigal> nivekc1: and then delete all files that belong to google earth - but its messy still
[04:46] <asc> TheCreationist: Did you remember the /media/directory part?
[04:46] <yigal> CppIsWeird: there are many ways, are you using samba?
[04:46] <CppIsWeird> no idea, im doing everything through ubuntu, you tell me
[04:46] <vviO> yigal: so what do u say
[04:47] <TheCreationist> asc: Yeah... that's the same place I tried mounting it again.
[04:47] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: I assume your propably using apt-get or aptitude to install your lib's so you would need to first edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file and then apt-get update
[04:47] <nivekc1> well i want to completely remove it because im pretty sure i screwed up the install by clicking run while i was in sudo
[04:47] <asc> TheCreationist: Is there a line for the player in fstab now?
[04:47] <yigal> vviO: what application have you been using to try and see if your hardware is connecting?  What gateway are you trying to connect to?
[04:47] <Fezzler> Is there any advantage to installing flashplayer from Adobe website vs Ubuntu Synaptic?
[04:48] <TheCreationist> asc: No.
[04:48] <TheCreationist> asc: there never was.
[04:48] <yigal> Fezzler: what is the version number for both?
[04:48] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, No
[04:48] <asc> TheCreationist: It's behaving very oddly. I have to go to dinner. I'll be back, but you'll probably be best off asking other people.
[04:48] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, I'm using apt-get. but the program I'm installing from, I'm installing from source. I need apt-get to get the libdvdcss, but it doesn't seem to download anything. I'm gonna check my repos...
[04:48] <asc> TheCreationist: Does the directory exist in /media?
[04:48] <yigal> Fezzler: in many cases it is better to use a .deb package then a executable that will throw files everywher eon your file system
[04:48] <Jordan_U> Fezzler, Other than the fact that installing from Adobe you can install it for only one user
[04:48] <vviO> yigal: its DHCP
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you confused ? :)
[04:49] <TheCreationist> asc: Okay, I'm not sure what I did, but it mounted this time.
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: yes I am new to ubuntu
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you new to linux?
[04:49] <asc> TheCreationist: I sacrificed a small furry animal, that probably helped.
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: i have worked on fedora before
[04:49] <yigal> vviO: are you familiar with cli?
[04:49] <TheCreationist> asc: Well, I still can't delete from the player though.
[04:49] <Fezzler> Okay.  I did a complete removal via Synaptic and I'm now reinstalling
[04:49] <vviO> yigal: I am not an expert
[04:49] <cerda> i need some help loadin ubuntu
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: cli
[04:50] <yigal> Fezzler: what?
[04:50] <yigal> Fezzler: omg
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: I am not aware of that cli
[04:50] <TheNo1Yeti> Anyone here familiar with Tripwire at all or can point me to some good resources for learning about it/configuring it.
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: cli = command line interface
[04:50] <cerda> so can somone help
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: cli == terminal
[04:50] <asc> TheCreationist: 0_o. Try it again, this time add 'umask=007'. If that doesn't work, I'm really out of ideas. Leaving for dinner now.
[04:50] <vviO> yigal: u mean terminal/shell
[04:50] <asc> (add that to the -o section I mean)
[04:50] <yigal> vviO: y
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: yes I know abt that
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: ifconfig
[04:51] <TheNo1Yeti> cerda: any chance of being more specific?
[04:51] <yigal> vviO: open a terminal.
[04:51] <Fezzler> yigal: Why is my struggle to get Flashplayer working in Firefox pissing a couple folks off?
[04:51] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I've tried using sudo rm -r... no luck.  Any ideas?
[04:51] <vviO> yigal: its open
[04:51] <TheCreationist> asc: Didn't work.  But thanks for your help.
[04:51] <nivekc1> unless i did install it correctly and i am having a driver issue but idk what it is? anyone know anthing about google earth crashing at startup and logging the user out?
[04:51] <bruenig> TheCreationist, how did you mount it
[04:51] <M`Hael> is it normal that System Monitor shows GNU Chess as using 89% of my CPU?
[04:51] <yigal> Fezzler: its very easy, so they probably dont understand how much pain you are going through to get it working :)
[04:51] <cerda> Aright, well i go into loading ubuntu, and it just gets stuck at the part were it say loading, somtimes i can get up to the ubuntu icon
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Well, it automounts normally.  But I've tried mounting it manually as rw, but still doesn't work.
[04:52] <bruenig> M`Hael, probably not
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: I was able to ADD files to it, but not move or remove.
[04:52] <M`Hael> bruenig: didn't think so....
[04:52] <bruenig> TheCreationist, mount it with umask=000
[04:52] <TheNo1Yeti> M`Hael: That means that either A. The system is about to litteraly own you Deep Blue style or B. It went wonky
[04:52] <yigal> Fezzler: have you installed this ? i   flashplugin-nonfree             - Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[04:52] <vviO> yigal: whats next?
[04:52] <bruenig> TheCreationist, wait, you could add files but not delete?
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Yep.
[04:52] <yigal> Fezzler: i.e. sudo aptitude  flashplugin-nonfree
[04:52] <TheCreationist> bruenig: When trying to delete, it says read-only file system.  But it lets me add files?
[04:52] <M`Hael> TheNo1Yeti: it runs at 89% from the start, even before I start a game
[04:52] <bruenig> yigal, just leave him alone, he is incompetent and refuses to cooperate, hopefully he will leave
[04:52] <d4rkmonkey> hmm, I can't seem to find this package that I need for DVD functionality...
[04:52] <cerda> any ideas?
[04:53] <yigal> vviO: I want you to type "ping www.google.com" and tell me the repsonse
[04:53] <M`Hael> TheNo1Yeti: so I think it's going wonky
[04:53] <bruenig> TheCreationist, yeah that is really weird
[04:53] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Well, it let me add files before trying to delete them. Let me see if I can add them now.
[04:53] <Fezzler> yigal: yes.  And Youtube tells me I either don't have flash or java installed?
[04:53] <yigal> Fezzler: not likely
[04:53] <bruenig> yigal, I have told you three times now what to do, do it or leave
[04:53] <d4rkmonkey> Does anyone know of any libdvdcss packages so I can get past the "configure: error: libdvdcss is not installed."?
[04:53] <bruenig> Fezzler, not yigal
[04:53] <nivekc1> does having a restricted video driver leave me open to driver failure?
[04:53] <yigal> bruenig: calm down
[04:53] <yigal> bruenig: ok
[04:53] <TheCreationist> bruenig: Yep  I can still add them just fine.
[04:54] <cerda> so wat can i do????????
[04:54] <M`Hael> one more thing, is it normal for gnome-system-monitor to be using 7% CPU?
[04:54] <bruenig> TheCreationist, there is no reason you shouldn't be able to delete then unless I am missing something
[04:54] <TheCreationist> bruenig: I can delete the files I just added, but none of the other ones.
[04:54] <coopster> nivekc1, restricted is more a term to describe the fact that the driver is not open source and does not grant you the same freedoms of use, it doesn't reference stability
[04:54] <TheNo1Yeti> M'Hael: Actually, I just started chess and it ate my cpu
  garb the inf files form windows partition
[04:54] <vviO> yigal: unkwon host: www.google.com
[04:54] <coopster> TheNo1Yeti, check and mate.
[04:54] <M`Hael> TheNo1Yeti: that's odd, must report that to GNU
[04:55] <nivekc1> mac120: i dont have a widows partitio
[04:55] <M`Hael> I wonder if any other GNU games do that
[04:55] <Fezzler> bruenig: why is this pissing you off.  I have entered every advice provided.  why are you whinning.  Just Ingnore me
[04:55] <TheNo1Yeti> M'Hael: Yes, graphical system monitors use up system resources.
[04:55] <bruenig> Fezzler, you haven't
[04:55] <yigal> vviO: now when you type "ifcong -a" you see "eth0"?
[04:55] <bruenig> Fezzler, I told you to tell me what about:plugins in firefox gives you and you don't ever do it
[04:55] <Mac120> You can do it in Vmware server or workstaion
[04:55] <yigal> Fezzler: the likelyhood is that you are lying
[04:55] <vviO> yes eth0 is there
[04:55] <vviO> yigal: yes eth0 is there
[04:55] <d4rkmonkey> Can anyone tell me what "E: Package libdvdcss2 has no installation candidate" means? I need libdvdcss2 to install another program (or atleast get the DVD support in that program that I want)
[04:55] <bruenig> Fezzler, it is a novel idea I know that the best way to know if firefox is using a plugin is to ask firefox, but please humor me
[04:56] <yigal> vviO: do you have a firewall on your router?
[04:56] <TheCreationist> !dvd | d4rkmonkey
[04:56] <ubotu> d4rkmonkey: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:56] <TheNo1Yeti> M'Hael: Yes other GNU games do it.  Blackjack spikes itself to 100% when it does the "Computing System Strategy"
[04:56] <vviO> yigal: i am directly connected to my DSL modem
[04:56] <cerda> #kubuntu
[04:56] <yigal> vviO: yes, but your router may not want to allow acces
[04:56] <nivekc1> glad to see everyone is distraught by a flash plugin? lol.
[04:57] <noxx_> Ello all!  I have a working dualhead configuration. I want to know if anyone knows of some documentation to accomplish two goals, 1- prevent window spanning accross both monitors when maximized, 2- set default display for new window
[04:57] <Fezzler> bruenig: I don't understand what you mean by about:plugins sir, that is why.  Honestly
[04:57] <yigal> vviO: s/acces/access
[04:57] <blunts> hello all, i have something i have not encountered before.. sudo synaptic   results in   Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[04:57] <bruenig> Fezzler, about:plugins in the location bar of firefox
[04:57] <yigal> vviO: excuse me do you have a firewall installed?
[04:57] <TheCreationist> I'm trying to delete files from my MP3 player (tried to do so in Amarok, Terminal, and File Browser), but it says it's a read-only file system.  I can still ADD files to it, but not delete them.  Anyone have any ideas what gives?
[04:57] <vviO> yigal: no
[04:57] <Justi1> what is the installation directory of firefox?
[04:57] <nivekc1> though when i started using ubuntu (fresh from windows) it took me aout 6 hours to figure out java
[04:57] <nivekc1> lol
[04:57] <yigal> TheCreationist: user permissions, try with superuser?
[04:58] <root__> YAy
[04:58] <Fezzler> bruenig: Okay.  I was looking for a menu item.
[04:58] <root__> i got it to work
[04:58] <FactTech> Fezzler: Enter "about:plugins" in your browser's address bar, like you would enter an HTTP address, then hit return. You will get an information page.
[04:58] <TheCreationist> yigal: Yeah, I've tried a lot of commands on it with sudo, but still throws the errors.
[04:58] <TheNo1Yeti> Justi1: /etc/firefox
[04:58] <TheCreationist> Justi1: /usr/mozilla/firefox, I believe
[04:58] <yigal> vviO: you have not used automatix to install firestarter or something like this?
[04:58] <MetalMessiah> OK I need a Bind expert
[04:58] <Fezzler> Thanks.  I'm there
[04:59] <TheCreationist> Justi1: Nope... it's /usr/bin/firefox.  Sorry.
[04:59] <vviO> yigal: I just installed my Ubuntu and now can not configure my LAN to work, nothing installed
[04:59] <TheNo1Yeti> Sorry, I thought you typed a blind expert.   Anyway, ask away and I'm sure someone will try to help
[04:59] <blunts> hello all, i have something i have not encountered before.. sudo synaptic   results in   Segmentation fault (core dumped) .. message me if u know pls

[04:59] <yigal> vviO: do you have network-manager installed?
[04:59] <yigal> vviO: sorry of course you do
[04:59] <bruenig> Fezzler, so what does it say about flash
[04:59] <FactTech> Fezzler: No problem. Sometimes people forget that the obvious isn't always obvious to newcomers.
[04:59] <Justi1> I am trying to install flash, and its asking me for the firefox install directory. which one should I use?
[04:59] <MetalMessiah> Anybody wanna help me with Configuring Bind to go with my domain name

[05:00] <TheCreationist> Justi1: That will take care of everything for you.
[05:00] <yigal> bruenig: do you really like xchat?
[05:00] <Fezzler> It says it is enabled
[05:00] <bruenig> yeah
[05:00] <cerda> come on man somone help
[05:00] <vviO> yes
[05:00] <Justi1> bruenig: thecreationist: it doesn't work. the download slows to 200 bytes/sec, and then stops
[05:00] <dimas__> astras i want to delete what i did and make the changes properly but i dont know the commands
[05:00] <vviO> yigal: yes its opened
[05:01] <yigal> vviO: good
[05:01] <Fezzler> File name:  libflash-mozplugin.so Flash Movie player Version 0.4.12 compatible with Shockwave Flash 4.0
[05:01] <yigal> bruenig: :)
[05:01] <bruenig> Fezzler, what does it say for filename and the thing right underneath filename
[05:01] <astras> dimas__: as in quit without saving or undo?
[05:01] <TheCreationist> Justi1: Hmm.. slow internet connection?  Then the directory you enter for the Adobe flash plugin would be /usr/bin/firefox
[05:01] <TheNo1Yeti> TheCreationist: Does Konversation has a list of users in the channel?  Cause I can't find that in XChat
[05:01] <cerda> so can somoen help or wat
[05:01] <dimas__> i did wq:
[05:01] <bruenig> Justi1, no /usr/lib/firefox not /usr/bin/firefox
[05:01] <yigal> vviO: it listed eth0, if i recall correctly from what you said, please confirm?
[05:01] <dimas__> astras i did wq:
[05:01] <Fezzler> File name:  libflash-mozplugin.so
[05:01] <cerda> nyone have hotmail that kan help
[05:01] <Brent> Arrrrgggg
[05:01] <bruenig> !find libflash-mozplugin
[05:02] <Zxcs> if i remove the menubar from a terminal how do i get it back?
[05:02] <ubotu> Found: libflash-mozplugin
[05:02] <TheCreationist> TheNo1Yeti: Yes, it does by default.  And if I remember correctly, XChat's user list is there, but it's hidden by being sized down too much.
[05:02] <Fezzler>  Flash Movie player Version 0.4.12 compatible with Shockwave Flash 4.0
[05:02] <jerbear> anyone know if you can use UUID's in /etc/crypttab?
[05:02] <yigal> Fezzler: are you a brand new install?
[05:02] <bruenig> Fezzler, sudo apt-get remove libflash-mozplugin
[05:02] <vviO> yigal: lo and eth0 are listed
[05:02] <astras> dimas__: then that saved your changes
[05:02] <Justi1> thecreationist: its not slow, but I seem to have problems connecting to their servers. I had to download the .tar from another computer and then bring it to this one on a disk
[05:02] <yigal> vviO: so your ethernet, is at least detected.
[05:02] <Brent> I don't know if anyone is around that was here a little while ago and helping me, but I just can't fix my problem of the blank screen
[05:02] <TheNo1Yeti> TheCreationist: lol thanks.  I feel bad that I just got owned by a sizing bar I been staring at for 10 minutes
[05:02] <Brent> while installing Ubuntu
[05:02] <TheCreationist> TheNo1Yeti: You found it then? ;)
[05:02] <TheNo1Yeti> lol yea
[05:02] <bruenig> Justi1, it could be that they changed the links because the ubuntu package is just a script that downloads and installs, it is not the actual plugin
[05:02] <Zxcs> if i remove the menubar from a terminal how do i get it back?
[05:02] <vviO> yigal: seems like
[05:02] <yigal> TheCreationist: welcome to linux :)
[05:03] <MetalMessiah> AHh
[05:03] <MetalMessiah> wtf
[05:03] <TheCreationist> TheNo1Yeti: Yeah, took me forever to figure that one out too ;)
[05:03] <dimas__> astras but i guess i doing something wrong cause i still getting error in the compiling
[05:03] <Fezzler> bruenig: done
[05:03] <cerda> can u even c me typin or wat
[05:03] <MetalMessiah> Anybody in here wanna help me with Configuring BIND
[05:03] <TheCreationist> yigal: Yeah... now because I installed Feisty I'm forced to use windows to update my MP3 player too.
[05:03] <yigal> vviO: when you try to connect what does it say
[05:03] <bruenig> Fezzler, restart firefox, go to about:plugins again, report back on the info
[05:03] <kooz> Hi, I'm trying to get the perldoc Finance::Quote feature to work for gnucash, no one in that channel; anyone know any resources?
[05:03] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: What is the problem that your having with configuring it?
[05:03] <vviO> yigal: connect to what?
[05:03] <MetalMessiah> I wanna configure it to work with my domain
[05:03] <astras> dimas__: compiling what?
[05:04] <MetalMessiah> The docs
[05:04] <yigal> TheCreationist: so not right, i have a black barry with an SD card I can't believe you have to use Windows to do that, what kind of mp3 player?
[05:04] <kooz> I can't download perl correctly: Manifying blib/man3/Finance::Quote::ManInvestments.3pm
[05:04] <kooz> mkdir /usr/local/lib/perl: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl/5.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 112
[05:04] <kooz> make: *** [pure_site_install]  Error 13
[05:04] <MetalMessiah> Give me headches
[05:04] <dimas__> astras spca5xx-v4l1goodbye
[05:04] <Brent> Does anyone have an idea of why I get a blank screen while trying to install or run Ubuntu? It loads some stuff, I select to run or install, and after a while, I get a blank screen
[05:04] <MetalMessiah> my domain is xitz.net
[05:04] <Fezzler> bruenig: Flash entry gone
[05:04] <bruenig> kooz, start the application as root "gksudo whatever" then do it again
[05:04] <yigal> vviO: your gateway, i.e. dsl modem
[05:04] <Justi1> /usr/lib/firefox worked. thanks thecreationist and bruenig for your help
[05:04] <MetalMessiah> I know i need to add a new zone in name.conf
[05:04] <astras> dimas__: dunno about that... sorry
[05:04] <cerda> ey
[05:04] <yigal> Fezzler: is it a new install?
[05:04] <TheCreationist> yigal: It's a Sansa e260.  Worked fine in Edgy, but now for some reason, I can add files to it, but can't delete them because it's a "read-only filesystem."  Which makes no sense since I can write new files to it.
[05:04] <astras> dimas__: webcams aren't my thing
[05:05] <bruenig> Fezzler, are you on 64 bit?
[05:05] <cerda> ey
[05:05] <cerda> ey
[05:05] <cerda> ey
[05:05] <Fezzler> yidal:  Yes.   Bruenig:  No
[05:05] <vviO> yigal: how to connect to the gateway... ping is not returning...
[05:05] <dimas__> astras i suppose to changes the default conf from the makefile
[05:05] <TheCreationist> yigal: It should just show up as a standard flash drive, and it seems to, but with the problems I just mentioned.
[05:05] <Brent> ?????
[05:05] <MetalMessiah> I have zone "xitz.net" {
[05:05] <MetalMessiah>         type master;
[05:05] <MetalMessiah>         file "/etc/bind/db.255";
[05:05] <MetalMessiah> };
[05:05] <dimas__> astras dont worry about the cam
[05:05] <yigal> TheCreationist: have you umounted the disk, mounted it as root, and played with it as root?
[05:05] <Fezzler> yidal:  new in as I had to reinstall ubuntu desktop earlier today
[05:05] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: You have any experience with bind prior to this?
[05:05] <dimas__> just help me with the changes in makefile please
[05:05] <bruenig> Fezzler, ok so do: ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[05:05] <yigal> Fezzler: yigal =/ yigal
[05:05] <MetalMessiah> I tried in on windows
[05:06] <TheCreationist> yigal: Yep.  Tried that, running sudo on everything
[05:06] <MetalMessiah> But no go
[05:06] <kooz> bruenig, okay, I'll give that a shot -- it's a long installation process (lots of questions)
[05:06] <MetalMessiah> I have it set up  and all
[05:06] <Fezzler> yidal; not new from LiveCD.
[05:06] <dimas__> astras just help with the changes in the makefile configuration
[05:06] <Zxcs> if i remove the menubar from a terminal how do i get it back? help plox
[05:06] <bruenig> kooz, the only reason it won't install is because it needs to put stuff in a directory owned by root
[05:06] <yigal> TheCreationist: what about trying to change permissions?
[05:06] <linuxn00b> so, I just installed ubuntu, but after rebooting, I get the "error loading operating system"
[05:06] <Justi1> Does google web accelerator work in ubuntu?
[05:06] <bruenig> kooz, and you don't haver permission
[05:06] <astras> dimas__: I have no idea what changes need to be made
[05:06] <kooz> okay, so sudo commands....
[05:06] <linuxn00b> can anyone help me with this?
[05:06] <MetalMessiah> It would never configure right for me
[05:06] <TheCreationist> yigal: All the permissions are set correctly.  I should have full read/write ability
[05:06] <dimas__> astras i will tell you...hold on
[05:06] <MetalMessiah> even after i did the right thingas
[05:07] <kooz> Now the gnc-fq-update command won't even work
[05:07] <astras> MetalMessiah: are you root servers pointing to your nameserver?
[05:07] <kooz> it freezes after  Are you ready for manual configuration? [yes] 
[05:07] <linuxn00b> has anyone gotten the "Error loading operating system" problem?
[05:07] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: Honestly howtoforge.com is your friend in this instance.  http://www.howtoforge.com/two_in_one_dns_bind9_views
[05:07] <astras> the*
[05:07] <Fezzler> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29608/
[05:07] <dimas__> astras The Makefile which controls the compiling process for this driver has to be told to use gcc-3.4 instead of the default version 4.0:
[05:07] <dimas__> export CC=gcc-3.4
[05:07] <t0rek> !rules
[05:07] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:07] <yigal> TheCreationist: have you turned off udev - it worked for me with trying to charge my blackberry through the usb connection I have
[05:07] <yigal> TheCreationist: sounds strange, but its worth the experiment
[05:08] <TheCreationist> yigal: How would I do that?  And what are the drawbacks?
[05:08] <yigal> TheCreationist: sudo /etc/init.d/udev stop
[05:08] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: That link that I just posted is what I used to learn bind basically.  It's incredibly easy and plain english.
[05:08] <dimas__> astras i have gcc-3.4 already
[05:08] <yigal> TheCreationist: basically hotplugging is no longer working
[05:08] <TheNo1Yeti> The first page honestly is enough to get you running
[05:08] <bruenig> Fezzler, everything appears to be in place, see what happens when you go to youtube
[05:08] <astras> dimas__: ok, so look for the line that says CC=gcc-4.0 to CC=gcc-3.4
[05:08] <yigal> TheCreationist: you have to manually mount everything
[05:08] <MetalMessiah> ok
[05:08] <MetalMessiah> thnxs
[05:08] <Fezzler> bruenig:  I apologize I didn't know what about:plugins meant earlier
[05:08] <asc> TheCreationist: Out of curiosity, have you done an ls -l to see what it thinks the permissions are?
[05:08] <Justi1> what is a .msi file?
[05:08] <TheCreationist> asc: Yes, I have.
[05:08] <g9sh> Hello all
[05:09] <TheCreationist> yigal: That's really not an option to turn off hotplugging
[05:09] <dimas__> astras how i look for it?
[05:09] <martianixor> ;
[05:09] <TheNo1Yeti> Anyone able to point me to resources on configuring & setting up Tripwire?
[05:09] <yigal> TheCreationist: yes, in general no but try it
[05:09] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[05:09] <ryuk> Zxcs: right click on the control panel and choose add to panel.. down the bottom in the utilities section ther is menu bar.. drag than onto the panel and reposition
[05:09] <d4rkmonkey> I installed libdvdcss2, but I still get an error while compiling saying: configure: error: libdvdcss is not installed.
[05:09] <yigal> TheCreationist: just for the experiment
[05:09] <d4rkmonkey> Any idea what I can do to get past this?
[05:10] <astras> dimas__: in vi, type /CC=
[05:10] <astras> dimas__: the / means to find whatever follows
[05:10] <MetalMessiah> astras
[05:10] <dimas__> astras ok let me see
[05:10] <linuxn00b> #nick oxeimon
[05:10] <linuxn00b> #nickname oxeimon
[05:10] <asc> TheCreationist: Actually, you know what... you might try dismounting it then runing fsck on /dev/device. It might use a nonstandard implementation of FAT. Or you could just put it into windows (if you can delete files that you added) delete everything and only modify it from ubuntu in the future.
[05:10] <Fezzler> bruenig: It tells me I either have Java Script turned off or an old company of Flash Player
[05:10] <Zxcs> ryuk: you're a true savior, my wife and kids thank you
[05:10] <MetalMessiah> I got iti
[05:10] <ryuk> Zxcs: lol..
[05:10] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: Check your configuration script, see if it is looking for a certain version or in a certain place different than what you have installed
[05:10] <dimas__> astras so i do with the lines i did before? should i care about it?
[05:11] <Brent> Does anyone know why Ubuntu is freezing on a blank screen before it can start the installer? It just ran perfectly last night, but I didn't finish the installer due to something coming up
[05:11] <TheCreationist> asc: mount shows it as a vfat filesystem
[05:11] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, well it says libdvdcss but apt-get automatically installed libdvdcss2... is there a way to change that?
[05:11] <astras> dimas__: I have no idea what you did to the file, but I would uncompress it again and start over
[05:11] <Brent> I appreciate any help
[05:11] <slicksterr> anyone know how i can setup ubuntu to be viewable on windows through network places? i have ubuntu installed on my laptop, vista on my desktop; they are both hardwired to my router, and im trying to see my laptop through network places. internet works on both machines. anyone here that can help?
[05:11] <yigal> TheCreationist: good luck,
[05:11] <Julie45> how do I get out of this "less" program and back to the bash prompt
[05:11] <astras> Julie45: ZZ
[05:11] <g9sh> I have a question--I am trying to set up wireless on an inspiron 600m. I've researched this and found a known bug. The resolution quoted is "pci=noacpi" How do I do that?
[05:11] <Julie45> ZZ
[05:11] <Julie45> oops
[05:11] <TheNo1Yeti> !tripwire | TheNo1Yeti
[05:11] <Julie45> astras, thank you
[05:12] <astras> Julie45: not a problem
[05:12] <oxeimon> urgent question: I had XP installed, I've partitioned my disk using GParted-live, then I've installed Ubuntu, but after a reboot, I get "Error Loading Operating System". Can someone help me?
[05:12] <bruenig> Fezzler, what version of ubuntu
[05:12] <asc> TheCreationist: Mm. Might be worth a try though.
[05:12] <dimas__> astras so you say i just should type over? and the save it with wq:?
[05:12] <Fezzler> bruenig: I have Java Script Enabled box checked in Firefox set up
[05:12] <MetalMessiah> Astras no i dont thats what iam trying to setup now
[05:12] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: I am sure there is but honestly I don't know right off hand.  Have you tried doing it straight through aptitude?
[05:12] <Fezzler> bruenig: 7.04
[05:12] <asc> TheCreationist: Of course, it also might permanently break it for all I know.
[05:12] <Julie45> Now, how can I list all user accounts on my ubuntu box?  it's a LAMP server, no GUI
[05:12] <t0rek> hello!
[05:12] <TheCreationist> asc: Well, I've used windows to just completely format it before.  Maybe that will help.
[05:13] <TheNo1Yeti> cat /etc/passwd
[05:13] <asc> TheCreationist: Oh, okay. So long as you can just reformat if something breaks.
[05:13] <santims> does anybody know anything about Folding around here?
[05:13] <TheCreationist> asc: I've had problems in the past with Linux kind of corrupting the files I add to it.
[05:13] <g9sh> sorry, working with fiesty
[05:13] <t0rek> I have a problem to make xorg to work with the 'nvidia' driver @1024x768
[05:13] <astras> MetalMessiah: if you are logged in to your domain account through your registrar, point the ns record to ns1.yourdomain.org
[05:13] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, whats aptitude? I've been using apt-get I searched for the package first, but since it wasn't there, I have to compile
[05:13] <TheNo1Yeti> Julie45: cat /etc/passwd
[05:13] <t0rek> so far I've tried some of this solutions:
[05:13] <t0rek> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:13] <dimas__> astras how do i save and quit in vi?
[05:13] <d4rkmonkey> TheNo1Yeti, I also searched for a .deb which I couldn't find
[05:13] <t0rek> without results
[05:13] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[05:13] <yigal> TheCreationist: don't respond, I hope get what you deserve
[05:13] <Brent> Am I not doing this IRC thing right? Maybe nobody is seeing my messages? I hope it's not a problem
[05:13] <astras> dimas__: wq!
[05:13] <bruenig> Fezzler, try to reinstall flash, sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree ; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[05:13] <Jordan_U> dimas__, Press escape then :wq
[05:13] <TheCreationist> yigal: Okay, what's the attitude for?
[05:14] <asc> TheCreationist: I myself have noticed that windows can't read directories that linux created, on FAT partitions.
[05:14] <astras> MetalMessiah: then create an NS and A record on your bind server, along with the reverse dns info
[05:14] <Julie45> the mo1yeti, I did that but it sure seems to list a tone of stufff.... like postfix, backup, proxy, gnats, etc....
[05:14] <Fezzler> bruenig: is there an "ls" or "grep" command to verify I in fact have Java?
[05:14] <MetalMessiah> ok
[05:14] <TheCreationist> asc: I'm not sure I have the problem.  Of course, I have ext3 drivers installed in windows ;)
[05:14] <dimas__> astras ...jordan  ???
[05:14] <TheNo1Yeti> d4rkmonkey: aptitude is the cooler older brother of apt-get.  Requires more typing but is smarter when it comes time to uninstall & purge and it has a really old schoolesque ui for it also if you just type aptitude
[05:14] <astras> MetalMessiah: if you really can't get it, install Webmin and go from there... easy to config bind from there
[05:14] <bruenig> Fezzler, javascript is not java, if you want java do sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[05:14] <astras> dimas__: jordan?
[05:14] <Ple-Q> hello
[05:14] <MetalMessiah> apt-get webmin?
[05:15] <yigal> TheCreationist: sometimes you have to stop simple processes to understand what is going on, by the way my iq is 140+ I don't appreciate someone not listening to me, not like my ego is large just reasonable, you didn't respond to me, so good luck man
[05:15] <dimas__> astras jordan says something else
[05:15] <asc> TheCreationist: Come to think of it, you can probably format it by just doing 'sudo mfks.vfat /dev/device'
[05:15] <Jordan_U> dimas__, astras ?
[05:15] <santims> is there any way to install the 64bit version of ubuntu but still get the full advantages of the 32 bit os???  i want to use the SMP folding client that can only be used in a 64bit os....but using that os i am having extreme difficulties using flash/java, wine, and a few other things
[05:15] <dimas__> guys!!!
[05:15] <kooz> okay, this should work because with sudo, you have permission to anything...gnc-fq-update still doesn't work though
[05:15] <facugaich> Brent: you just have to explain your issue and if someone knows something he/she will let you know
[05:15] <t0rek> hey... did someone saw my question?
[05:15] <asc> yigal: Just a tip, nobody likes people who cite their iq.
[05:15] <astras> MetalMessiah: go to www.webmin.com
[05:16] <oxeimon> urgent question: I had XP installed, I've partitioned my disk using GParted-live, then I've installed Ubuntu, but after a reboot, I get "Error Loading Operating System". Can someone help me?
[05:16] <astras> dimas__: yes, ESC first to get to the command line, and then wq!
[05:16] <Brent> I did explain it, but I'm not sure anyone was able to read it
[05:16] <TheNo1Yeti> Julie45: There is a way to do see just the users that are > 105 (the last system user generally) but that requires use of awk methinks and awk > me
[05:16] <MetalMessiah> k
[05:16] <TheCreationist> yigal: Wow.. my IQ is 145.. so congrats.  It wasn't that I didn't listen to you...  I'm simply trying a lot of different things at once.
[05:16] <Brent> But I'll explain it again............
[05:16] <yigal> asc: why worry who likes me, just try for the truth, good luck
[05:16] <facugaich> Brent: yes I read it. I'm just saying that if no one knows a solution no one will reply
[05:16] <TheCreationist> yigal: But now that I know you wish bad on those that hesitate to follow your advice, I won't bother you for help from now on.
[05:16] <MetalMessiah> I cant wait till this is all done
[05:16] <d4rkmonkey> W00t I got one step closer by looking closer at what it really wanted :D now it gave me another error
[05:16] <dimas__> astras wq! or :wq?
[05:16] <yigal> yigal: I am giving evidence for thinking that I have something to say
[05:16] <Brent> I am getting a blank screen after some initial loading when selecting to install or load
[05:16] <kooz> okay, trying to install Finance::Quote of gnucash, part of perldoc with the command gnc-fq-update, but get a long sequence of install questions and then Which SSL install path do you want to use?  /usr/lib/gnucash
[05:16] <kooz> /usr/lib/gnucash does not appear to be an SSL library installation, since
[05:16] <kooz> the required header files were not found. The build cannot proceed.
[05:16] <kooz> Running make test
[05:16] <kooz>   Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
[05:16] <asc> yigal: Because on the internet, your attitude is what defines your character to others.
[05:16] <kooz> Running make install
[05:17] <astras> dimas__: wq!
[05:17] <kooz>   Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install
[05:17] <kooz> Finance::Quote is up to date.

[05:17] <dimas__> thanks astras
[05:17] <yigal> yigal: but if you have no interest thinking I have something to say good luck
[05:17] <astras> dimas__: np
[05:17] <Brent> I understand that nobody may know. But I didn't know that

[05:17] <Toma-> !patience | yigal | TheCreationist
[05:17] <Zxcs> is there any way to remove the frame from the temrinal window?
[05:17] <ubotu> yigal | TheCreationist: 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
[05:18] <Toma-> Take it easy. There are far worst things than not getting instant help.

[05:18] <Zxcs> yea, aids  is a pisser

[05:18] <g9sh> I have a question--I am trying to set up wireless on an inspiron 600m. I've researched this and found a known bug. The resolution quoted is "pci=noacpi" How do I do that?
[05:18] <dimas__> astras should i just decompress without download again?
[05:18] <Brent> ?????
[05:18] <astras> Toma-: yea, like a computer on fire
[05:18] <astras> dimas__: should be fine
[05:19] <Brent> facugaich, what are you talking about?
[05:19] <dimas__> astras ok
[05:19] <t0rek> sorry... I know... there was so many lines that I wasn't sure if someone saw it
[05:19] <kooz> if I can't solve it, I'll setup the paste-bin
[05:19] <Brent> Oh, I think you were asking which is the correct way of saying it?
[05:19] <facugaich> Brent: Yeah :)
[05:19] <oxeimon> urgent question: I had XP installed, I've partitioned my disk using GParted-live, then I've installed Ubuntu, but after a reboot, I get "Error Loading Operating System". Can someone help me?
[05:20] <cotyrothery> How would i go about updating my drivers?

[05:21] <Brent> I'm not sure I'm doing this right, the IRC thing
[05:22] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?

[05:22] <d4rkmonkey> how do I enable shared in ffmpeg? when I run ffmpeg --enable-shared it tells me that its missing an argument

[05:23] <oxeimon> Do you guys know if installing ubuntu 7.04 automatically installs a bootloader?
[05:24] <TheNo1Yeti> oxeimon: I am pretty sure that by default it install grub unless you deselected it
[05:24] <Fezzler> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29610/
[05:24] <yigal> oxeimon: a boot loader is installed its called GRUB
[05:24] <[_tharivol_] > hi everyone... ive been trouble on instalation kubuntu at VIA RHINE II
[05:25] <oxeimon> I'm getting a problem when I boot up though, "Error loading operating system"

[05:25] <cotyrothery> I need to increase my frame rate in wow from 2 fps

[05:25] <bruenig> Fezzler, do ls Desktop
[05:25] <oxeimon> I have windows XP already installed. I've partitioned the hard drive with GParted
[05:25] <oxeimon> I have an AMD64 duo processor
[05:25] <joules> hey guys i have a huge problem ... i decided to reinstall windows.. i played around with it and finally reinstalled it .. however now when i reboot the OS manager doesnt come up... when i insert the live CD and go through installation it only gives me the option to format the whole drive however all my 4 partitions show up.... how do i fix this
[05:25] <TheNo1Yeti> cotyrothery: that is honestly easier said than done.  What type of system resources you working with here?
[05:25] <oxeimon> I've booted ubuntu 7.04 from the cd
[05:25] <oxeimon> and I've installed it
[05:25] <Justi1> where can I find the WINE windows directory?
[05:26] <Fezzler> bruenig: beryl-manager.desktop  flashplayer9_install_linux_061107.tar.gz
[05:26] <oxeimon> but after I reboot
[05:26] <Fedman> Justi1: ~/.wine/drive_c/windows
[05:26] <coopster> Justi1, ~/.wine/drive_c/
[05:26] <oxeimon> It says, "Error loading operating system"
[05:26] <oxeimon> I can still boot from the ubuntu cd, and all my files are apparently intact
[05:26] <oxeimon> but I can't boot up at all without the cd
[05:26] <oxeimon> any ideas?
[05:26] <dimas__> astras when i type /CC= saids Pattern not found
[05:27] <MetalMessiah> wow
[05:27] <oxeimon> o.O
[05:27] <yigal> oxeimon: did you get my private messages?

[05:27] <joules> oxeimon: how?
[05:27] <ubuntuserver> i have intalled webmin
[05:27] <asc> joules: Go to control panel, adminsitrative tools (or something) and look through them for something having to do with drives. There should be one that lists the partitions and drives available. Right-click on the one with ubuntu on it, select 'make active' (or something similar) and reboot. It will start ubuntu. Then reinstall GRUB.
[05:27] <Fedman> joules: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/
[05:28] <asc> joules: Or follow those more accurate directions.

[05:29] <bruenig> Julie45, try groups

[05:31] <Julie45> bruenig... that's weird....  I only have two groups, root and admin.  but when I've done ls -ls on certain folders found in my /var/www directory, they show "julie45 www-data 4096" I assumed that meant that the owner, is me, and that the Group is www-data... am I incorrect here?
[05:32] <TheNo1Yeti> Anyone know anything about Tripwire and can point me to a good resource on it?
[05:32] <bruenig> Julie45, you could do cat /etc/group I suppose
[05:32] <Fezzler> bruenig:  okay.  Now I get the image of the video clip but Firefox freezesz
[05:32] <oxeimon> yigal: Did you get my private messages?
[05:32] <Jimmio> hello
[05:32] <bruenig> Fezzler, sounds like adobe flash
[05:32] <bruenig> enjoy
[05:33] <Fezzler> bruenig: had to force quit
[05:33] <asc> mneptok: Google isn't very helpful in that instance. ;p
[05:33] <Jimmio> I need some help installing Ubuntu... it doesn't partition my HDD and seems to not be able to access it
[05:33] <Fezzler> bruenig: should I wipe my hard drive a reinstall Ubuntu?
[05:34] <mneptok> asc: Russian for "comrade" ;)
[05:34] <bruenig> Fezzler, that is what flash does
[05:34] <bruenig> crashes firefox
[05:34] <Jimmio> It gives this error: The attempt to mount a file system with type ext3 in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) at / failed.
[05:34] <Jimmio> any ideas on how to fix?
[05:34] <d4rkmonkey> how do I enable shared in ffmpeg? when I run ffmpeg --enable-shared it tells me that its missing an argument...
[05:35] <asc> mneptok: Really? Weird. It brings up some sort of alcohol distributor and a movie.
[05:35] <oxeimon> urgent question: I've just tried to install Ubuntu alongside my previous XP installation. Despite an apparently successful installation, after rebooting, I get "Error loading operating system" Can anyone help me?
[05:35] <Jimmio> Anyone here know why I can't partition my HDD?
[05:36] <tritium> Jimmio: you'd need to provide details before anyone could answer that
[05:36] <Jimmio> what details are needed?
[05:36] <pike_> Jimmio: if ya dont need to resize windows it is pretty easy.
[05:36] <Jimmio> It's an SATA drive, not SCSI...
[05:37] <Jimmio> I'm installing over another Ubuntu install
[05:37] <shiester_miester> bruenig, what was that about flash crashing firefox?
[05:37] <shiester_miester> bruenig, is it common for flash to cause problems with firefox?
[05:37] <bruenig> shiester_miester, yes
[05:37] <shiester_miester> hmm
[05:37] <tuxix> oxeimon: the last time i got that error message, i had to reinstall both xp and ubuntu
[05:38] <shiester_miester> i dont have any problems with it in ubuntu, although in windows it sometimes freezes my computer when i full-screen a youtube video
[05:38] <asc> Are there any tools that can throttle bandwidth by process?
[05:38] <Mitsuo> I have followed this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=433359
[05:38] <Mitsuo> after following this guide, I can no longer connect to the internet
[05:38] <Mitsuo> I believe it has to do with the lines added to rc.conf
[05:38] <oxeimon> um
[05:38] <shiester_miester> asc, yes
[05:38] <Mac120> We should have a Ubuntu party its so many people in here, I'll be glad to bring beer
[05:38] <Jimmio> do I use Guided: Use Entire Disk or Manual?
[05:38] <shiester_miester> Mac120, thats kinda beyond a party, more like a festival :P
[05:38] <tuxix> i'd be glad you bring beer :)
[05:39] <oxeimon> tuxix: My friend said it seems like a bootloader problem. Do you have any ideas what could be causing this?
[05:39] <shiester_miester> and now, welcoming you all to UBUNTUFEST 2007 is....Hobbsee!
[05:39] <asc> shiester_miester: Any names?
[05:39] <shiester_miester> oh wait, hobbsee isnt around
[05:39] <shiester_miester> asc, nope
[05:39] <Fezzler> bruenig:  I think its Java issue.  Can you help me install Java needed for Firefox  http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com:80
[05:39] <tuxix> oxeimon: yeah it's a bootloader pb, but i don't know how to fix it, maybe with a livecd
[05:39] <shiester_miester> asc, i KNOW they exist, one of the ubuntu command-line utilities can do it, i just can't remember what its called
[05:39] <asc> shiester_miester: Well, thanks anyway. I feel much better just knowing they exist.
[05:39] <bruenig> Fezzler, java isn't needed for youtube, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[05:40] <MetalMessiah> For reverse  address records
[05:40] <eboyjr> I'm really pissed that I can't do stuff like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ Is there anything I can do so I can? When I goto Desktop Effects, I can't do it. I have a ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
[05:40] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: hm?
[05:40] <asc> Also, how can I set a process to always be started at a certain nice value?
[05:40] <shiester_miester> oh there you are
[05:40] <MetalMessiah> Do i use ns1.xitz.net?
[05:40] <MetalMessiah> or just xitz.net
[05:40] <oxeimon> tuxix: I have an ubuntu livecd..
[05:40] <Hobbsee> shiester_miester: yeah, i'm around, at times
[05:40] <shiester_miester> Hobbsee, for some reason it wouldnt auto-complete your name so i thought you weren't here
[05:40] <Hobbsee> ah
[05:40] <shiester_miester> well, how would you like to host...UBUNTUFEST 2007
[05:41] <Mitsuo> can someone regard my message?
[05:41] <Jimmio> I think I know the problem...
[05:41] <Mitsuo> -_-
[05:41] <Jimmio> the HDD is mounted to something other than SDA?
[05:41] <Julie45> how do I add a user to an existing group?
[05:41] <shiester_miester> Mitsuo, you could always try reversing the things you changed?
[05:41] <Fezzler> bruenig:  Could it be a Sound driver issue?
[05:42] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: As a general rule reverse DNS PTR's are set to a specific subdomain (usually your mail server for anti-spam reasons) and are set at the ISP as a general rule
[05:42] <g0dd3ss> hi does anyone here use emesene? mine doesn't wanna login :-S
[05:42] <Mitsuo> shiester_miester: when i have removed the lines, it did not help
[05:42] <bruenig> probably a flash issue, flash is dirty and fails
[05:42] <TheNo1Yeti> Julie45: usermod -g <group name or gid> <username>
[05:42] <Fezzler> bruenig:  Thanks for trying.
[05:42] <shiester_miester> Mitsuo, that thing looks AWESOME
[05:42] <Julie45> theno1yeti, thank you
[05:43] <MetalMessiah> so address i would put mx01.1and1.com
[05:43] <MetalMessiah> anbd hostname xitz.net?
[05:43] <shiester_miester> Mitsuo, aside from the problem you just described, it sounds very cool :D
[05:43] <phrontist> where can I find something like BSD's Grand Digital Clock (grdc) for Ubuntu?
[05:43] <Mitsuo> shiester_miester: but my probleb is not aside..
[05:43] <Mitsuo> shiester_miester: not aside at all..
[05:43] <shiester_miester> Mitsuo, i know, i never said it was
[05:43] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: For instance, this is my PTR for one of my servers.   137.82.61.69.in-addr.arpa. 21600 IN     PTR     mail.yeticavestudio.com.
[05:43] <ryuk> oxeimon: try putting in your xp  CD and enter recovery mode, use fixmbr cmmand. then just re-install ubuntu see what happens.. if u want u can try and follow one of the guides on this site http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/
[05:44] <tuxix> oxeimon: so try with the livecd, maybe you'll just have to modify /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:44] <MetalMessiah> DNS hates me
[05:44] <cerda> i need help connectin to the internet
[05:44] <oxeimon> "boot/grub/menu.lst" what is that, and how do I modify it?
[05:44] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: Probably just as much as you hate it
[05:44] <Jimmio> anyone know why I'm having trouble installing ubuntu?
[05:44] <cerda> can anyone help
[05:44] <MetalMessiah> Ok in name server  Records on webmin i got
[05:44] <seko> hey, i put ubuntu in hibernation mode, and now when i start it up it just gives me a black screen.  is anyone able to help me?
[05:44] <MetalMessiah>  name : xitz.net  Name server ns1.xitz.net
[05:45] <TheNo1Yeti> cerda: You mean aside from what your doing now I am assuming.  If so what do you mean in particular
[05:45] <ryuk> seko: wat type of vid card do u have??
[05:45] <shiester_miester> !justask | seko
[05:45] <ubotu> seko: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:45] <MetalMessiah> OK
[05:45] <cerda> right now i dont have ubuntu installed yet, i was checken it out and i couldnt connect, so i didint install, btw im using wireless internet
[05:45] <MetalMessiah> its dnsing right
[05:46] <tuxix> oxeimon: /boot/grub/menu.lst is the information file for grub (boot manager) in which you have boot information for each partitions (linux, windows etc..)
[05:46] <seko> ubotu:lol i have intel extreme graphics 845gv (onboard with my emachine)
[05:46] <b0mb3r> i like knoppix
[05:46] <b0mb3r> ubuntu alwya fucks up
[05:46] <FuM> shiester_meister
[05:46] <tuxix> oxeimon: when the live cd is launched, try "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" and tell us what's in it
[05:47] <cafuego> You'd be on the wrong channel then, I hazard.
[05:47] <nomic> shaddap bomb3r
[05:47] <b0mb3r> haha
[05:47] <seko> ryuk:i have intel extreme graphics 845gv (onboard with my emachine)
[05:47] <b0mb3r> just thought you should know
[05:47] <b0mb3r> im out
[05:47] <duanarchy> Hello, I have my Xorg.conf set up properly, I think, and everything is looking fine, but when I run fgl_glxgears I geta '"XFree86-DRI" missing' error .. how can I get DRI working?
[05:47] <GMWeeze1> do most people avoid putting spaces in file names on Linux?
[05:48] <ryuk> oxeimon: are u able to get into your ubuntu machine at all (can u get to command line at least??)
[05:48] <MetalMessiah> Now to setup apache
[05:48] <oxeimon> tuxix: absolutely nothing. I don't think that file exists?
[05:48] <tuxix> oxeimon: on the live cd, no it doesn't exist, but on your linux partition it does
[05:48] <ryuk> oxeimon: by the looks of it grub isnt installed
[05:48] <oxeimon> oh wait hold on
[05:48] <TheNo1Yeti> GMWeeze1: yes
[05:49] <tuxix> ryuk: grub is installed by default
[05:49] <ryuk> tuxix: yea.. should remeberd that.. but then again strange things can happen in installs..
[05:49] <Jimmio> Can anyone help?
[05:49] <TheNo1Yeti> MetalMessiah: If your using webmin and can outsmart it then apache is easy.  Otherwise gogo: howtoforge.com
[05:49] <Johno> I have a question... How do I set up ubuntu for dialup
[05:50] <pike_> Johno: quickest way is to search wiki.ubuntu.com. id invest a few bucks in a real modem though
[05:50] <ca1> Will deleting cache and cookies from your browsers memory increasing browser speed?
[05:50] <TheNo1Yeti> Johno: ppp is what you'll be needing.
[05:50] <oxeimon> tuxix: when I go into the File Browser, and look into File System, there are no directories within boot
[05:50] <Johno> it has a real modem
[05:50] <bobdrakken> anyone on
[05:50] <TheNo1Yeti> Johno: by real modem he was refering to broadband I think
[05:51] <tuxix> duanarchy: try "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)"
[05:51] <oxeimon> tuxix: just 6 files, none of which include the name "grub"
[05:51] <ryuk> seko: have u triend trawling the ubuntu forums for solutions, if not i will try to find the ones that i used to get ris of the same problems (but i dont have the same vid card)
[05:51] <Fezzler> bruenig: trying this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2787287#post2787287
[05:51] <tuxix> duanarchy: are you using fglrx or radeon?
[05:51] <Johno> I cant get broadband where I live
[05:51] <duanarchy> fglrx
[05:51] <Johno> and how do I configure ppp?
[05:51] <oxeimon> tuxix: could it be somewhere else?
[05:51] <ryuk> oxeimon: try looking in media then your ubuntu installation.. /boot refers to to temp files created by the live cd.. not the ubuntu install
[05:51] <duanarchy> tuxix: fglrx, and I get this with apt-get; "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic is already the newest version."
[05:52] <tuxix> oxeimon: on your linux partition??? well i guess you could create it... but i told you, the last time i started up a new install
[05:52] <orangey> hey all!
[05:52] <orangey> I was wondering how I can get mysql-server to regenerate my /var/lib/mysql
[05:52] <oxeimon> ryuk: how do I look in 'media'? By media do you mean the livecd?
[05:53] <Jimmio> Please... someone help.... this is driving me nuts... I'm about to go with another distro... ubuntu used to be the easiest to install, now it doesn't work :/
[05:53] <ryuk> file browser go to /media and see wat folders are there
[05:54] <ca1>  Will deleting cache and cookies from your browsers memory increasing browser speed?
[05:54] <bobdrakken> hey how is everyone
[05:54] <oxeimon> ok
[05:54] <tuxix> duanarchy: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29614/         add this at the end of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:54] <oxeimon> in File System/Media, there is: "disk", "disk1", "disk2"
[05:54] <joel> anyone try to setup an unreal 2004 server?
[05:54] <oxeimon> ryuk: "disk" has a single unaccessible folder called "Lost and Found"
[05:54] <duanarchy> tuxix: I'm pretty sure that I already tried that.. but I'll try again and be right back, thanks
[05:54] <ryuk> then check disk 1 and 2..
[05:55] <iansh> joel: you need help with a game server?
[05:55] <tuxix> oxeimon: that doesn't look good
[05:55] <eboyjr> Can this run beryl?:  ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
[05:55] <joel> iansh: yes
[05:55] <oxeimon> ryuk: "disk 1" seems to refer to my XP partition - it has all my files from my XP installation, and "disk2" seems to refer to the ubuntu partition
[05:55] <asc> Jimmio: It would help to state the precise nature or pathology of the problem.
[05:55] <iansh> joel: what do you need?
[05:55] <tuxix> duanarchy: don't reboot your computer, just reboot the graphical server by typing ctrl+alt+backspace
[05:55] <ryuk> oxeimon: kk go into disk 2 and look for boot.. see wat is in there
[05:55] <duanarchy> tuxix, yup
[05:56] <joel> iansh: i forword all the ports and i can see players connect but they are unable to join the server (on there side all they see is loading)
[05:56] <Jimmio> asc: I'm attempting to install Ubuntu over a Ubuntu Installation, and the installer cannot partition my HardDrive... I can't locate it either
[05:56] <iansh> joel: you're sure you forwarded to the right IP address?
[05:56] <joel> yes
[05:56] <furenku> is it possible to create another Midi Through port for jack?
[05:57] <joel> iansh: positive becouse they can connect to the web server but not the same server
[05:57] <oxeimon> ryuk: disk2/boot contains: "abi-2.6.20-15-generic", "config-2.6.20-15-generic", "initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic.bak", "memtest86+.bin", "System.map-2.6.20-15-generic", "vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic"
[05:57] <pike_> Jimmio: open a terminal and type sudo fdisk -l   does the hd show up? is the a brand new hd?
[05:57] <iansh> joel: oh, maybe its the server application then
[05:57] <joel>  iansh: all they get is Open myLevel Wed Jul 11 22:53:17 2007 74.36.137.13:1236
[05:57] <asc> jimmio: What you mean is that the partition you want to install it on isn't listed? Or the drive itself?
[05:57] <joel> iansh: any sugestions
[05:58] <phreck> christ
[05:58] <duanarchy> tuxix, ha, it worked.  I guess the last time I did it I had other things that were wrong too.  Thanks a bunch
[05:58] <iansh> joel: i havent set up an Unreal 2004 server before, i do counter-strike and half-life servers so im not sure
[05:58] <phreck> i just tried to install vmware
[05:58] <phreck> vmware player
[05:58] <Jimmio> sudo fdisk -l returned nothing at all
[05:58] <phreck> and it has fucked everything up with my package manager
[05:58] <joel> o ok its all good, thanks for trying
[05:58] <pike_> phreck: grab vmware-server off their website. much more usable
[05:58] <pike_> phreck: wont fix that though ;p
[05:58] <tuxix> first victory of the day ! tadadadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:58] <phreck> pike: i cant install via the package manager because vmware player messed somethign up though
[05:58] <ryuk> oxeimon: easiest option.. reinstall ubuntu.. see wether that fixes your problem.. make sure u read everythin that is on the screen.. this may or may not work.. but give it a try.. u wont lose anything by the sounds of it...
[05:58] <phreck> so
[05:58] <phreck> my package manager is unusable
[05:59] <pike_> phreck: ive heard a few people mention that. havent seen it myself but im sure its in the forums
[05:59] <oxeimon> ryuk: bah, yeah I guess I'll try that. Should I reformat that partition too?
[05:59] <asc> jimmio: That certainly is an interesting problem. You've checked that it is activated in BIOS?
[05:59] <ryuk> oxeimon: yes.. if u dont u may get errors
[06:00] <Jimmio> hmm... no... but my other already installed ubuntu works fine...
[06:00] <borgista> Anyone know how to add the network manager applet to my panel? It comes up when I make new users but not on the default user.
[06:00] <Jimmio> except that Wine crashes the computer :/
[06:00] <pike_> Jimmio: bear in mind if youre south of the equator the hd spins counter clockwise.
[06:00] <asc> jimmio: When booting from the CD, did you change bios settings at all?
[06:01] <Jimmio> asc: nope
[06:01] <oxeimon> are you sure that ubuntu 7.04 includes grub??
[06:02] <asc> oxeimon: I don't know about anybody else, but I'm pretty darn sure.
[06:02] <Jimmio> asc: Last time I did an install, the floppy was enabled and it stopped me from installing...
[06:02] <ryuk> oxeimon, : i am 99.9982543% sure.. i personally havnt used the live CD for 7.04 (only the alternate iso) but i would be very, very surprised if it didnt, u kinda need it to be able to load ubuntu..
[06:02] <asc> Jimmio: I suppose it wouldn't help to tell you that an error like that is practicly unheard of?
[06:02] <oxeimon> kk
[06:03] <Jimmio> asc: It helps a lot, xD
[06:03] <oxeimon> I'm gonna use the gparted livecd again and try to reformat that partition
[06:03] <asc> jimmio: Just for fun, try 'ls /dev/hd?' and 'ls /dev/sd?'
[06:04] <Jimmio> no such file or directory
[06:04] <ryuk> oxeimon: just do a complete reinstall.. easiest (and generally safest) option..
[06:04] <Joe_x86> I got a question if anybody thinks they know my prob.
[06:04] <unagi> hello everyone
[06:05] <unagi> im getting to be a linux expert :D
[06:05] <aschmack> anyone here have an hp dv2000 laptop
[06:05] <Jimmio> asc: ls /dev/sda returned /dev/sda
[06:05] <unagi> i have dv6000
[06:05] <asc> jimmio: Well... uh, hmm. Does it boot without a boot CD in?
[06:06] <Joe_x86> I am using Ubuntu 7.04 (gnome) on my Toshba Laptop. The Restricted driver supports works excellent and my only complaint is that it looks like my net is capped at a DL rate of about 45kB/s
[06:06] <Jimmio> it should... nothing has changed...
[06:06] <asc> jimmio: That might help a little. Do you have any external drives plugged in?
[06:06] <Jimmio> asc: None...
[06:06] <asc> jimmio: Maybe 'ls /dev/sd*' would have been a better command for me to suggest.
[06:06] <aschmack> unagi, does your sound work?
[06:07] <Tones> hello
[06:07] <unagi> yes
[06:07] <ryuk> Joe_x86: what speeds do u think u should be getting
[06:07] <soduer_> can anybody tell me how I can install icon themes in KDE?
[06:07] <unagi> aschmack: yes
[06:07] <aschmack> oh
[06:07] <Joe_x86> ryuk: I'm on a 10 meg cable connection... around 1.5MB/s DL
[06:07] <duanarchy> tuxix, one more thing.  If I disabled the composite extension to get dri to work, then I can't run Beryl can I?
[06:07] <Jimmio> asc: it might be my f'd up FDD (floppy is so old!).... last time it failed because of that damned floppy drive..
[06:08] <Tones> when i try install server 7.04.....its not detecting my hard drives, i'm running a scsi raid array....any suggestions?
[06:08] <asc> jimmio: Well, that means that there is one drive that it recognises. Do a 'ls /dev/cd*'
[06:08] <reed026> Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows where the folder is that holds the Open Arena Maps I can not seem to find it on my computer
[06:08] <asc> jimmio: Ooh, could be. Although if the fd is disabled in bios it shouldn't appear. Probably.
[06:08] <phreck> HOw can i manually uninstall vmwareplayer
[06:08] <reed026> I am attempting to install downloaded maps, and all I need to do is copy the files over to my computer.
[06:08] <ryuk> Joe_x86: hmm.. not quite sure hy that may be.. how have measured your speed??
[06:08] <phreck> its fucked up my sinaptics
[06:08] <detuneyourradio> anyone have a geforce 8600gt with ubuntu?  i am looking into buying one ...
[06:09] <aztracker1> :( ubuntu alternative didn't install.. regular ubuntu desktop errored initializing hardware :(
[06:09] <pike_> reed026: open arena? its either in your home dir or /usr/local/ maybe try a locate .pk3
[06:09] <Bazi> I've had GeForce 6200 and 6100Go run on ubuntu
[06:09] <Joe_x86> yes ryuk.... It has happened on both installations of Ubuntu on this laptop. My speed is fine on my Vista on this lappy and on my Desktop with Ubuntu
[06:09] <Jimmio> asc: I'll be right back... going to double check the settings for the FDD
[06:09] <asc> jimmio: Okay.
[06:10] <asc> phreck: dpkg -r [package name] 
[06:10] <ryuk> Joe_x86, so what program did u use to measure it??
[06:10] <aztracker1> If anyone can help, would be appreciated... wanting to get Ubuntu 7.04 installed on an HP dv9310us laptop ... nvidia 6150 based gfx/mb .. etc...
[06:10] <Geoffrey2> is there any helper program in Ubuntu for installing fonts, or do you just dump them in the appropriate directory?
[06:10] <reed026> thank you pike_, it was in my home directory. heh It was hidden the first time I checked.
[06:10] <ryuk> Joe_x86,  or has the problem bin popping up everywhere??
[06:11] <unagi> which is newer mandriva or ubuntu
[06:11] <Joe_x86> ryuk: The problem is just when I run Ubuntu.... That is all
[06:11] <Joe_x86> Only on this laptop
[06:11] <Joe_x86> ryuk: Might be the drivers in Ubuntu?
[06:11] <ryuk> Joe_x86, kk..have u got all drivers (restriced) instaled??
[06:12] <richie-> is there a faq on truly installing ubuntu onto a usb key
[06:12] <richie-> not using livecd+persistence?
[06:12] <unagi> is there a reason bluetooth works right off the bat with mandriva and not with ubuntu?
[06:12] <Joe_x86> ryuk: I guess? All my hardware (Intel 950GM) is working... Wireless and wired and Ubuntu tells me it is using restricted drivers... ??
[06:13] <pike_> unagi: is mandriva kde? maybe it works but ubuntu doesnt have the gui tool installed.
[06:13] <MetalMessiah> this sucks
[06:13] <unagi> on the live cd its gnome
[06:14] <ryuk> Joe_x86, lol.. intersting.. i must admit i have never had this problem... my lappy worked fine with that speed connnection.. so i am out of ideas..
[06:14] <Jordan_U> richie-, No, some suggestions though, use the alternate CD to keep things minimal for space and use ext2 since the jounal on ext3 will wear out the flash quickly
[06:15] <pike_> Joe_x86: maybe disable ipv6? thats a little odd
[06:15] <Jordan_U> richie-, At least not on the wiki that is.
[06:15] <Joe_x86> pike_  : Lemme try
[06:15] <Joe_x86> ryuk: Thanks for trying :)
[06:15] <Joe_x86> We will figure this out some how
[06:15] <darkramon> hello guys
[06:15] <jimmio> asc: Back
[06:15] <richie-> jorda: thats what i thought bleah... thanks.
[06:16] <darkramon> I just installed Beryl and when I do the ctrl + alt + backspace, it restarts the xorg but my monitor keeps blinking without showing me anything
[06:16] <asc> jimmio: Yea, tis a fortuitous portent.
[06:16] <pike_> well im going to listen to coast to coast and stare at the cielling till i pass out
[06:16] <jimmio> asc: Floppy was disabled... could it be HyperThreading on my CPU?
[06:16] <Joe_x86> pike_ : Is there a FAQ on dissabling ipv6?

[06:17] <asc> jimmio: Probably hyperthreading doesn't have very much to do with disk devices, but don't take my word for it.
[06:18] <oxeimon> so, even after reformatting the linux partition, I still can't boot up XP. Is it possible to reinstall XP without reformatting?
[06:18] <asc> jimmio: One question: Do you know what type of disk your drive is? SCSI, ATA, SATA?

[06:18] <jimmio> asc: SATA

[06:18] <youkilldkennedy> !sound
[06:18] <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).

[06:20] <asc> ubuntu: Actually, you don't need the sudo
[06:21] <FuM> mon^rch, it switches desktop but the cube doesnt come out
[06:21] <cerda> ok i need some help, im stuck at a part that says failed to start the server
[06:21] <asc> jimmio: Hmm, that might be a bad thind.

[06:21] <ubuntu> asc ------- when do i type that? and what does that do?
[06:21] <mon^rch> FuM: press your scroll wheel down while the mouse is on the desktop

[06:23] <Edward> my home folder is hardly full now,I want to merge a partition to home folder with Partition Magic in dos/Win.I don't know whether this method is safe for my data on home folder.
[06:23] <ubuntu> asc ----- no i am running off of live cd right now. the hole reason is becuase i ran the update to upgrade to ubuntu to 7.04 and after it finished and rebooted at the login screen the monitor goes blank
[06:23] <unagi> Edward: you have 2 partitions?
[06:23] <Johno> what does "unexpected end of file" mean?... with gunzip
[06:23] <ryuk> FuM, make sure that the image is a power of 2 in both height and width ie 1024x1024 etc..
[06:23] <asc> jimmio: What happens if you tell it to use the SCSI drive?
[06:23] <unagi> youre trying to get rid of one Edward
[06:23] <unagi> ?
[06:23] <jimmio> asc: That's even weirder.... it says SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) - 300.1 GB ATA Maxtor 6L300S0
[06:23] <Edward> yes,I have 2 partition
[06:23] <asc> ubuntu: Oh, okay. Same thing then, but you do have to use sudo.
[06:23] <jimmio> asc: notice tha ATA
[06:24] <unagi> youre trying to get rid of one Edward?
[06:24] <FuM> ITs 4096x1024

[06:24] <asc> jimmio: Heh, neat. Give it a try.
[06:24] <ubuntu> asc --- ok queck question --- where do i type this?? i see the load spalsh screen then it goes blank is there somthing i hit to prompt me to a terminal??
[06:24] <level1> Hi, my computer has been suspending incorrectly... when it suspends, the processor doesn't shut down, and I can't bring it back up, I have to hard reboot...  It did this every once in a while before, but since I installed compiz-fusion (even when not running compiz-fusion) I cannot suspend correctly
[06:24] <Edward> I can draw a partition from other partition to merge it to home folder
[06:24] <asc> jimmio: 'sd' drives are USB, SCSI, or SATA.
[06:24] <Edward> SATA
[06:24] <asc> ubuntu: Press control-alt-F1 when it sounds like it's done booting and it should give you a terminal. That command will reconfigure your video drivers.
[06:24] <Johno> how do I find the default root password?
[06:24] <jimmio> asc: Try what? That's what the installer says...
[06:25] <ubuntu> might i add this hole live cd thing is the best thing ever!! ive stuck with ubuntu ever since  started usin it just for that reason
[06:25] <asc> jimmio: Try installing to that disk.
[06:25] <ryuk> have u gone to beryl manager and setup sky dome to actually run??
[06:25] <unagi> Edward:  are u trying to delete the other partition and use it for ubuntu?
[06:25] <jimmio> asc: I have been :/
[06:25] <Edward> unagi,yes
[06:25] <asc> jimmio: Okay. And it tells you that it can't find the disk for some reason, yes?
[06:26] <jimmio> asc: trying it again, hold on
[06:26] <ubuntu> asc -- what do i type to reconfigure the vid card driver??? im sorry man :0)
[06:26] <unagi> then use gparted to delete the other partition and boot using the live cd and unmount the hd and grow the ubuntu partition Edward
[06:26] <asc> ubuntu: 'sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[06:26] <level1> My suspend problem may be fglrx related, but I didn't upgrade fglrx when I installed compiz-fusion, so I don't understand why it started all of the sudden
[06:26] <youkilldkennedy> Anyone know why my sound will only play at most at a very low volume?
[06:26] <ubuntu> thats it asc?? --- ur the man thanx a million
[06:26] <ubuntu> i didn't wanna format and loose everything i have on my pc
[06:27] <Edward> unagi,good idea
[06:27] <asc> ubuntu: It might be --configure. But probably that's the right command.
[06:27] <jimmio> asc: in the advanced button, it says device for bootloader installation (hd0)
[06:27] <jimmio> asc: should I make that sda?
[06:27] <asc> ubuntu: Hope it works. The configuration process can be... fun.
[06:27] <asc> jimmio: That would be a good idea.

[06:28] <ubuntu> asc -- right on ill be back in prob buggin somebody if i cant get it goin lol
[06:28] <macogw> unagi: do you speak japanese?
[06:28] <oxeimon> anyhow
[06:28] <asc> jimmio: I've never installed from a livecd, so I don't know much about the options n' stuff.
[06:28] <eboyjr> youkilldkennedy: I had the same problem. You can double click on the volume icon and adjust the settings
[06:28] <unagi> no
[06:28] <ryuk> oxeimon, lol...
[06:28] <macogw> unagi: your name reminds me of sushi
[06:28] <macogw> unagi: eel, i think
[06:28] <oxeimon> I choose the manual partitioning option, and it says: "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu."
[06:28] <eboyjr> youkilldkennedy: Then it got too loud.
[06:28] <oxeimon> any ideas?
[06:28] <asc> ubuntu: Hope it works. If it doesn't, I might just stull be around to be unhelpful. :)
[06:28] <unagi> yup
[06:28] <oxeimon> what does it mean by a root file system
[06:28] <asc> still even
[06:28] <macogw> oxeimon: hit "edit"
[06:28] <macogw> oxeimon: on whatever partition you want to hold your system files
[06:29] <oxeimon> right
[06:29] <jimmio> asc: it says Partitions formatting... but I don't think it's doing a damn thing..
[06:29] <ryuk> oxeimon, kk select the partion, go to type and select it use.. chose it to use /
[06:29] <oxeimon> I did
[06:29] <macogw> oxeimon: and tell it "use as ext3" and "mount point /"
[06:29] <Joe_x86> BOOYAH!!! My net probs are fixed!
[06:29] <asc> jimmio: Give it a few minutes.
[06:29] <oxeimon> right now the Mount point is "/media/sda2"
[06:29] <ryuk> macogw, got it right.. listen to him.. i couldnt rem what the naes were
[06:29] <jimmio> asc: ok
[06:29] <barawks> Joe_x86, Gangster. :P
[06:29] <oxeimon> I should change that to just "/"?
[06:29] <ryuk> oxeimon,  change it to /
[06:29] <Joe_x86> :P
[06:29] <g9sh> iwconfig

[06:31] <barawks> dun hax muh netz
[06:31] <oxeimon> what really sucks though, is even after I uninstall ubuntu and wipe that partition clean, I still can't boot up windows.
[06:31] <buzzed> kdevelop not sure
[06:31] <youkilldkennedy> I invented the intertubes, though.
[06:31] <barawks> o;
[06:31] <jimmio> asc: YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (that was Dave Chapelle) it's installing finally! Thanks a million... though I still don't know what the problem was.... Oh wait! I changed hd0 to sda!

[06:32] <barawks> u neic bby
[06:32] <macogw> oxeimon: if you remove ubuntu the bootloader (GRUB) will break, but if you put in the Windows cd and go to a recovery console and type in "fixmbr" it'll reinstall ntldr
[06:32] <barawks> ily long thyme
[06:32] <macogw> oxeimon: if you're using win98, its a different command, but it's there

[06:35] <barawks> jimmio, LAWL
[06:35] <Joe_x86> lmao jimmio
[06:35] <ryuk> oxeimon,  all u have to o is put in your XP cd, boot it up let it all load, press r, it will ask u to select which version of xp u want, then thype in the version and then will bring u to a full screen console..
[06:35] <barawks> Johno, mebe it breok
[06:35] <barawks> :O
[06:35] <Joe_x86> Mine is still green thank god
[06:35] <MrObvious> barawks: Don't be an idiot.
[06:35] <ryuk> oxeimon, from there type in fixmbr
[06:35] <MrObvious> :\
[06:35] <barawks> MrObvious, I'm sorry...just really tired. :(
[06:35] <MrObvious> So does anyone have any Grub experience?
[06:35] <jimmio> asc: Yea! But then my warranty is worthless...
[06:36] <unagi> Edward:  are u back?
[06:36] <asc> jimmio: Oh, going to try a return, then?
[06:36] <MrObvious> barawks: Then log off before you get banned or something ;).
[06:36] <barawks> 0 n0ez
[06:36] <barawks> i dun wanna get bnned
[06:36] <barawks> :O
[06:36] <ryuk> oxeimon, restart the comp and see if u can get into windows.. if yess all is good for now...  if not then u have problems(your comp that is)
[06:36] <asc> jimmio: Probably a good idea. I usually try to fix things myself, but all my stuff's out of warranty anyway.
[06:36] <jimmio> asc: So I've been using it wrapped in a towel, overheating it, remealting the solder points causing it to work for a few minute
[06:36] <MrObvious> Besides it's not good to run on a lack of sleep. I usually try to go for 8 hours of sleep.
[06:36] <Joe_x86> MrObvious: Grub? You means fat white worms... Also Known As "Larva"   <---- lmao jk
[06:36] <Jacko78> can i use my current operating system to install ubuntu on to my computer withought using a live cd?
[06:37] <MrObvious> Joe_x86: *smack*
[06:37] <gcarrillo> does anybody know of the vga= value for 1680x1050 framebuffer resolution?
[06:37] <oxeimon> ryuk: k I've just inserted the XP cd and its loading
[06:37] <MrObvious> Joe_x86: I need help getting grub to work. It hangs at Loading Grub Stage 1.5. Please wait... or something similar and takes like 20-30 seconds to go past that screen.
[06:37] <asc> jimmio: That reminds me of the time I installed ubuntu with a broken drive by moving the reader arm by hand.
[06:37] <VOYAGER> MrObvious,  dual boot with ms ?
[06:37] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Yes.
[06:37] <asc> *broken cd drive
[06:37] <MrObvious> I forgot to say that.
[06:37] <Hobbsee> certainly inst actually producing any useful output.
[06:37] <oxeimon> ryuk: blue screen with title: Windows Setup
[06:37] <MrObvious> :|
[06:37] <MrObvious> Sorry.
[06:37] <VOYAGER> what you need
[06:37] <oxeimon> ryuk: stuff is loading
[06:37] <Joe_x86> MrObvious: Give me a sec
[06:37] <jimmio> asc: What? How did you move it by hand?!
[06:37] <youkilldkennedy> 1....2....3....
[06:37] <ryuk> oxeimon,  yep this will take a while.. u will eventually get a screen with a menu type thing on it (blue as well)
[06:37] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: It freezes at that one screen for like 20 seconds.
[06:37] <Joe_x86> grrr....
[06:37] <oxeimon> ryuk: There was an option at the beginning, that said: "Press F2 to run an Automated System Recovery"
[06:37] <youkilldkennedy> Everyone I know named joe is always late...
[06:38] <oxeimon> ryuk: is that what I want?
[06:38] <VOYAGER> i can  bring up my menu1st for referance
[06:38] <ryuk> yep..
[06:38] <oxeimon> ryuk: oh
[06:38] <asc> jimmio: By taking the drive apart and taping the 'drive is closed' switch in the closed position. Then starting it with the platter ejected and partially disassembled.
[06:38] <oxeimon> ryuk: well it's gone now lol
[06:38] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Okay.
[06:38] <ryuk> oxeimon, lol
[06:38] <asc> jimmio: The reader head was part of the tray assembly for some reason.
[06:38] <VOYAGER> what screen the loading of o/s or the choice screen
[06:38] <VOYAGER> ?
[06:38] <oxeimon> ryuk: maybe I can do something after this screen finishes loading
[06:38] <gcarrillo> when im on that beat, im a beast
[06:38] <jimmio> asc: NO!!!! Executing 'grub-install (sda)' failed. This is a fatal error.
[06:39] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Is your setup with your Linux setup on the master and XP on the slave?
[06:39] <Joe_x86> MrObvious: In Stage 2?
[06:39] <xatalinux> hello to all.....
[06:39] <MrObvious> Joe_x86: It says it's loading stage 1.5
[06:39] <asc> jimmio: Hmm, recon it is.
[06:39] <VOYAGER> xp  on master sata
[06:39] <oxeimon> ryuk: alright, loading has finished, I hit "r" for Recovery Console
[06:39] <ryuk> oxeimon, which screen r u on.. if u r at the stage where i looks like a bunch of drivers are bain loaded at the bottomof the screen all is still good..
[06:39] <VOYAGER> linux on slave
[06:39] <Joe_x86> Ok MrObvious, one moment
[06:39] <VOYAGER> ide
[06:39] <jimmio> SOBMFPSCCWNTBR!
[06:39] <ryuk> oxeimon,  yep hit r
[06:39] <jimmio> lol
[06:39] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Ok that's what I got, only on IDE instead.
[06:39] <oxeimon> this won't wipe all my data will it
[06:39] <macogw> oxeimon: no
[06:39] <ryuk> no..
[06:39] <oxeimon> lol k
[06:40] <asc> jimmio: Just for kicks, try doing 'grub-install /dev/sda'
[06:40] <oxeimon> cuz I was stupid and didn't back everything up
[06:40] <asc> jimmio: in a terminal
[06:40] <ryuk> oxeimon, happens to us all
[06:40] <macogw> oxeimon: itll just rewrite the first block of the hard drive, the part that tells the rest of windows to load
[06:40] <VOYAGER> ok which screen is hanging then ?
[06:40] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: When I'm booting up it says "Loading GRUB Stage 1.5"
[06:40] <Joe_x86> MrObvious: Do you get a ERROR 25 during 1.5?
[06:40] <MrObvious> Joe_x86: No errors, it just hangs.
[06:40] <VOYAGER> when you pick or when the choice screen is loading
[06:40] <Joe_x86> aight
[06:40] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Loading.
[06:40] <VOYAGER> ahh
[06:40] <VOYAGER> ok
[06:41] <jimmio> asc: I found the problem... it sets the HDD as hd0 after install :/
[06:41] <oxeimon> ryuk: omg wtf the administrator password is wrong?
[06:41] <jimmio> asc: So I'm reinstalling
[06:41] <xatalinux> i'm new in linux (kubuntu) and i will like to know how i can install synaptic full version
[06:41] <ryuk> hmm try no password.
[06:41] <oxeimon> I'm the administrator....that should just be my login password right?
[06:41] <asc> jimmio: Ah.
[06:41] <VOYAGER> MrObvious,  pm ?
[06:41] <oxeimon> hmm I guess I'll try no password
[06:41] <oxeimon> whats the default password?
[06:42] <ryuk> oxeimon, no the administrator is a diff user that is usaly only avail in help mode
[06:42] <Joe_x86> MrObvious: All you have to do is go into your CMOS setting in your bios. Make sure all of your hard drives are set to manual (or user) and to LBA mode. <--- Try it
[06:42] <asc> jimmio: Y'know, that's probably not a very user-friendly behavior for it.
[06:42] <MrObvious> Okay.
[06:42] <MrObvious> Joe_x86: I'll give that a shot.
[06:42] <MrObvious> VOYAGER: Sure.
[06:42] <Joe_x86> OK
[06:42] <jimmio> Lovely red lights... of doom... reminds me of kryll from GoW... just as deadly :/

[06:46] <ryuk> oxeimon,  try password..
[06:47] <asc> ubuntu: What he said. 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver xorg'
[06:47] <ryuk> oxeimon, were u the one that installed windows or did u buy it from a shop/big company
[06:47] <asc> jimmio: I actually don't have the server window open. /join #asc?

[06:48] <oxeimon> I installed windows
[06:48] <strk_> the webcam is a sn9c20x chipset
[06:48] <asc> ubuntu: It turns out dpkg was the wrong command. 'dpkg-reconfigure' is the right one.

[06:52] <oxeimon> ryuk: I installed XP by myself
[06:52] <Hitomaro> quick question, Is "Favorited" even a word?
[06:52] <TheNo1Yeti> If your on windows sure
[06:53] <Hobbsee> Hitomaro: no
[06:53] <TheNo1Yeti> ie. This site has been Favorited.
[06:53] <ryuk> oxeimon, do u remeber what password u put on the admin account.. not your account one that u may of needed during some of the first stages of installing XP??
[06:53] <Hitomaro> Hobbsee: You sure about that?
[06:53] <asc> TheNo1Yeti: I think it would be considered slang.
[06:53] <VOYAGER> yes if your in firefox
[06:53] <Hobbsee> Hitomaro: as far as i know. yes.
[06:53] <VOYAGER> adding to favorites
[06:53] <Varanger> hello
[06:54] <res7bequ> i tried editing the command in GRUB and added vga=791 and 795
[06:54] <res7bequ> neither worked
[06:54] <Hitomaro> Favorited IMO should be a word
[06:54] <oxeimon> ryuk: no. I dont think I ever used such a password
[06:54] <Varanger> When I do "apt-cache show foo" ... I get 2 versions of a packages, how can I choose which one to install ??
[06:54] <VOYAGER> res7bequ,  you get outa range after it does boot ?
[06:54] <res7bequ> my moniter is weird or something
[06:54] <oxeimon> ryuk: Basically, I use one password for anything of any importance
[06:54] <res7bequ> it boots
[06:54] <oxeimon> ryuk: and it's not that
[06:54] <res7bequ> i go to grub
[06:54] <ryuk> then when it asks for password just press enter..
[06:54] <res7bequ> it loads at the splash screen
[06:54] <res7bequ> and then
[06:54] <res7bequ> moniter stops working after it loads
[06:55] <oxeimon> ryuk: nor is it just "<enter>", or "password <enter>"
[06:55] <VOYAGER> yes the boot stuff is in another  rez
[06:55] <ryuk> lol.. damn.. there sould be no defult password unless u set it..
[06:55] <res7bequ> ic
[06:55] <VOYAGER> res7bequ, is this from cd or a hd install ?
[06:56] <res7bequ> is there anyway to reset the rez of after the loading
[06:56] <oxeimon> ryuk: It shouldn't be case sensitive should it
[06:56] <res7bequ> i installed it
[06:56] <VOYAGER> ok
[06:56] <oxeimon> there's a slight chance I might have had caps lock on, but there's no way to tell
[06:56] <oxeimon> lol
[06:56] <ryuk> it would be case sensitive..
[06:56] <VOYAGER> do you have a lcd /
[06:56] <VOYAGER> ?
[06:56] <res7bequ> yea
[06:57] <Varanger> When I do "apt-cache show foo" ... I get 2 versions of a packages, how can I choose which one to install ??
[06:57] <krinns> hi all
[06:57] <VOYAGER> do you have a  crt to put on temp?
[06:57] <res7bequ> nah i just threw it out
[06:57] <VOYAGER> ahh
[06:57] <res7bequ> i knew i shouldnt have
[06:57] <oxeimon> ryuk: alright, trying again
[06:57] <krinns> i want my noral system user to add printer through gnome-cups-manager
[06:57] <ryuk> lol
[06:58] <VOYAGER>  then you gotta  fix the config file
[06:58] <VOYAGER> or boot from cd and edit it
[06:58] <krinns> admin  ALL = NOPASSWD:  /usr/bin/gnome-printer-view
[06:58] <VOYAGER> which is a pita
[06:58] <krinns> admin  ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/gnome-cups-manager,/usr/bin/gnome-cups-add
[06:58] <krinns> but this seems not workin
[06:58] <res7bequ> hmm
[06:58] <krinns> my user cant pause or resume jobs
[06:58] <krinns> why
[06:58] <res7bequ> what to do
[06:58] <furenku> is it possible to create a new Midi Through port?
[06:58] <krinns> is there any thing wrong
[06:58] <oxeimon> instead of hitting "r" I could also enter windows setup
[06:58] <VOYAGER> the monitor is going outa range
[06:58] <oxeimon> what would that do?
[06:59] <Frogzoo> Varanger: by default apt will install the latest package
[06:59] <VOYAGER> and if you installed and didnt set the monitor  horiz and vert it reverts to one that is outa range on my lcd and others
[07:00] <Frogzoo> VOYAGER: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"  - if that doesn't work - you'll need to spec HorizSync & Vertrefresh in xorg.conf
[07:00] <darkramon> hello
[07:00] <Varanger> Frogzoo: I know, but I want to install neither the oldest nor the lastest, just a specific version, for instance: foo-1.old
[07:00] <VOYAGER> i had to edit the x config file
[07:00] <ryuk> oxeimon, u cant fix the mbr from the windows seup
[07:00] <VOYAGER> there ya go  thats it
[07:00] <ryuk> unless u reinstall it all
[07:00] <darkramon> how can I stop the apt-get from looking into the Cd-rom...? I want apt-get to download everything from the repositories
[07:00] <VOYAGER> tnx Frogzoo
[07:00] <res7bequ> nice
[07:00] <Frogzoo> VOYAGER: if it's an lcd, don't spec horizsync/vertrefresh - not necessary
[07:00] <res7bequ> i shall try that
[07:00] <DavidLeeRoth> anyone feel like helping on an ssh problem?
[07:00] <res7bequ> k

[07:05] <Drod1> Hobbsee, thanks, i just did, should the new resolutions appear in System, Preferences, Resolution? they do not
[07:06] <Hobbsee> Drod1: then you'll need to restart X.
[07:06] <Hobbsee> (ctrl+alt+backspace)
[07:06] <robby> actually its one of those that keeps getting funnier
[07:06] <Drod1> Hobbsee, Control+alt+backspace, I guess?
[07:06] <Hobbsee> Drod1: login again, and if all has worked, it should be at the high resolutionj
[07:06] <Hobbsee> yep

[07:07] <MajorPayne> Hi.  When I connect to a remote machine on my local network using "ssh -X ip" and then run firefox a local instance of firefox starts.  If I select a different web browser in the same session a remote instance starts.  How can I get firefox to start remotely?
[07:07] <MajorPayne> The machine I am connecting to runs Debian but the computer I am on is runnig Ubuntu.
[07:08] <mcfisherprice> hi.. i'm currently running 7.04 but every few moments it temporarily freezes and then continues
[07:08] <mcfisherprice> any idea why this might be?
[07:08] <mcfisherprice> it's mid typing, like on irssi as in right now
[07:08] <ubuntu> hey
[07:08] <robby> TheNo1Yeti: this is when you tell me "Ok fine, just get over it".
[07:08] <ubuntu> i got to login in screen that looks fine
[07:09] <ubuntu> but my menus are all jacked up
[07:09] <TheNo1Yeti> Oh sorry.  Yes, please to be getting over it.
[07:09] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[07:09] <robby> lol
[07:09] <TTilus> mcfisherprice: no idea, launch top or system monitor or somethin where you can see running processes and some stistics, it could give you more information on what could be freezing your comp
[07:09] <mcfisherprice> how is his nickname ubuntu?
[07:09] <mcfisherprice> ok. thank yo
[07:10] <mcfisherprice> u
[07:10] <ubuntu> acp -- soo i was able to click on options at the login screen and choose failsafe gnome if i install vid card drivers here will it work for my reg login??
[07:10] <robby> TheNo1Yeti:  Your a true realist.
[07:10] <mcfisherprice> whats the default keyboard shortcut for a new terminal window?
[07:10] <TheNo1Yeti> lol thanks.  I do what I can.
[07:11] <robby> indeed
[07:11] <MajorPayne> Hi.  When I connect to a remote machine on my local network using "ssh -X ip" and then run firefox a local instance of firefox starts.  If I select a different web browser in the same session a remote instance starts.  How can I get firefox to start remotely?  The machine I am connecting to runs Debian and the machine I am using runs Ubuntu.
[07:11] <mcfisherprice> shame on me for being lazy i'll look it up
[07:11] <oxeimon> ryuk: well, I don't think I can use the recovery console
[07:11] <oxeimon> ryuk Should I just go into setup and reinstall windows?
[07:11] <TTilus> MajorPayne: if you ever find out, tell me too  :)
[07:11] <oxeimon> that shouldn't wipe my disc should it
[07:12] <MajorPayne> TTilus: Heh.  You have the same problem?
[07:12] <robby> TheNo1Yeti: whats your interest?
[07:12] <ryuk> oxeimon, fuck.. wat i would suggest is boot into ubuntu and try to back up some of your stuff.. then reinstall windows..
[07:12] <ubuntu> i was talking to apc earlier about this vid card problem im having i am currnelty able to log into failsafe mode from the login screen but wehen i go into my reg login i cant view the tasbar or menus at all can i update my vid card from thsi failsafe mode and have it wor
[07:12] <TTilus> MajorPayne: no, no, not at all!  just being curious  :P
[07:12] <ryuk> not sure what u did to your installs.. but somethin happened and u got rid of your boot possibities.
[07:12] <MajorPayne> TTilus: I can get Empathy to work, but not Firefox.
[07:13] <TheNo1Yeti> robby: In Linux?  Learning it better so I can get promoted.  Been using it off and on for a decade and a half but just now getting serious with learning it inside and out
[07:13] <MajorPayne> I think it has to do with the fact that I am running Firefox when I connect and I am not running Empathy.  But I still don't like it.
[07:14] <MajorPayne> On the local machine I mean.
[07:14] <xx> hello all :)

[07:15] <ryuk> yea.. auto sys recovery no-one ever set up..
[07:15] <TheNo1Yeti> ubuntu: Are you sure that you don't just have your resolution borked in xorg.conf?
[07:15] <xx> >:d<
[07:16] <code_eater> ubuntu, u mess with xorg.conf or something like that ?
[07:16] <robby> TheNo1Yet:  Cool, just got it a say a week or so ago, and while im not proficient in it im up for learning and that needs to be done just so i can get some programming exp and deeper knowledge of programming etc.
[07:16] <ubuntu> thenolyeti --- that is very possible should i rerun the it?
[07:16] <ubuntu> and will it work if it do it from a termnial in ehre
[07:16] <ubuntu> ill give it a shot
[07:17] <ubuntu> will it work on this terminal in fail safe mode?
[07:17] <ubuntu> i mean im not on a live cd soo it should work right?
[07:17] <Polygon89> hey, after a recent openoffice.org update, the icons in open office dont show up anymore, even though i have "show icons" enabled, how do i get my icons back?
[07:17] <towlieba> i burned feisty to a cd and when  boot i get an error :/bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off" what does this error mean and how can i fix it
[07:17] <TheNo1Yeti> ubuntu: check your xorg.conf file and yes, it will work in failsafe mode
[07:18] <ubuntu> sweet
[07:18] <ubuntu> sooo it will automatically save th echanges on my defualt profile??
[07:18] <TheNo1Yeti> ubuntu: failsafe mode is just basically "oh crud, I screwed something up bad and need 800x600 mode to fix it."
[07:18] <sebleblanc> see ya all
[07:18] <sebleblanc> nite
[07:18] <MajorPoopyPants> im gonna take the plunge, im gonna use gentoo on my home server
[07:19] <ubuntu> TheNo1Yeti --- lol
[07:19] <MajorPoopyPants> theres a way to update the security packages only now, glsa-check
[07:19] <MajorPoopyPants> still gonna use ubuntu/debian on the dosktops
[07:19] <robby> whats sucks it i spend to much time writing or drawing file system structure and file linking to sit and write code unless it basic algorithms
[07:19] <MajorPayne> MajorPoopyPants: Last time I installed Gentoo it took me a full weekend just to get Gnome up and runnig.
[07:19] <MajorPayne> running*
[07:19] <towlieba> i burned feisty to a cd and when  boot i get an error :/bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off" what does this error mean and how can i fix it?
[07:19] <code_eater> towlieba, for u http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=292533
[07:19] <TheNo1Yeti> robby: Yea, programming is what originally got me started in learning linux because I got tired of screwing up when I tried to edit something on the remote server with vi.
[07:20] <ubuntu> alright lets see if this werked
[07:20] <MajorPoopyPants> MajorPayne, i hear ya , it doesnt take me long to get up and running, or even tweaked and screaming, its the long-term upkeep of it that kills me. Thank god for g4l backups :D
[07:20] <ubuntu> be right back ladies and gents
[07:20] <towlieba> thanks but i looked at that and didnt find anything helpful. this happens when i try to boot form the livecd
[07:20] <MajorPoopyPants> ill tell you this though, its nice to have things work right on it
[07:21] <towlieba> code_eater,  thanks but i looked at that and didnt find anything helpful. this happens when i try to boot form the livecd
[07:21] <vip3rousmango> i have an ISO image in a folder, is there a command that allows me to mount the image without burning it? I have gmount.. but it's not in english for some reason
[07:21] <MajorPayne> Yea.  It's been a while since I used Gentoo.  But I remember a lot of things breaking during upgrades and me having to switch to different versions to be able to use common apps.
[07:21] <bruenig> !iso | vip3rousmango
[07:21] <ubotu> vip3rousmango: 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.

[07:22] <bruenig> zedQ, script
[07:22] <oxeimon> ryuk: o.O
[07:22] <zedQ> bruenig, I dont know how to script
[07:22] <ryuk> i gather u actually have a /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[07:22] <oxeimon> no
[07:22] <bruenig> zedQ, uh oh
[07:22] <oxeimon> there are no directories in /boot
[07:22] <Jacko78> Puppu linux allows you to do a minimal install is there something like that with ubuntu?
[07:22] <ryuk> so grub did not install??
[07:22] <towlieba> can anyone help me out ?
[07:22] <code_eater> towlieba, and this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=415009
[07:22] <oxeimon> well, I dont know
[07:22] <oxeimon> ubuntu never said anything about grub
[07:23] <oxeimon> lol
[07:23] <ryuk> what happens when u boot up your system.. does it post, then say grub loading,
[07:23] <oxeimon> there's nothing about grub when I boot up my system. Lemme check again
[07:23] <Polygon89> hey, after a recent openoffice.org update, the icons in open office dont show up anymore, even though i have "show icons" enabled, how do i get my icons back?

[07:23] <LukeEkbla1> Hey, dose anyone know of any widgets for ubuntu?
[07:24] <ryuk> then gives a menu with options like ubuntu"insert kernal no" then a recovey version of the kernal, and lastly a mem test option??
[07:24] <zedQ> Does anyone know how I can batch rename files, ordering by modification date, without having to learn an entire computer language
[07:24] <Bonz> I installed Ubuntu today for the first time.  I've never used Linux :x
[07:24] <devilsreject> alright
[07:24] <oxeimon> it says something about verifying DMI pool data or something
[07:24] <ubuntu> alright
[07:24] <oxeimon> then it says Booting from cd....
[07:24] <bruenig> zedQ, bash is pretty simple
[07:24] <robby> wow my spelling is great
[07:24] <ubuntu> i just tried messin with it and its still givin me the same problem
[07:24] <oxeimon> then....something really quick, I can't see what it says, and then it goes into the ubuntu startup screen
[07:25] <towlieba> code_eater, thanks i think i fixed it by choosing "boot from driver cd"
[07:25] <bruenig> zedQ, what exactly are you doing, perhaps I can try to lend a hand
[07:25] <zedQ> bruenig, still requires me learning an entirely new computer language
[07:25] <jonathan_> hello
[07:25] <oxeimon> "Start or install Ubuntu", "Start ubuntu in safe graphics mode" "Install with driver update CD" "Check CD for defects" "Memory test" "boot from first hard disk"
[07:25] <code_eater> towlieba, no prob ;)
[07:25] <jonathan_> somebody can help me to compiling file tar balls?
[07:25] <bruenig> zedQ, not an entire language, basically you need to know ls awk and for
[07:25] <zedQ> bruenig, I just want to apply a prefix to all files in a folder, but based on file modification date, not by name
[07:25] <ryuk> boot from harddisk.. choose that
[07:25] <LukeEkbla1> dose anyone know of any widgets for ubuntu? ? ? ? anyone at all?
[07:26] <towlieba> code_eater, do you think this problem could affect me if i try to install ubuntu on the hard drive ?
[07:26] <bruenig> zedQ, what kind of prefix? like 01 02 03 in order like that or just prefix it with the date
[07:26] <jonathan_> I'm trying to installing tar.gz package
[07:26] <jonathan_> somebody help me
[07:26] <oxeimon> ryuk: "Booting from local disk... Error loading operating system_"
[07:26] <MajorPayne> LukeEkbla1: Widgets to do what?
[07:26] <guesr> hi everyone in ubuntu i found openoffice as alternative to ms office .. but still i am not convinced with its performance .. its changes some doc file format. is there any other alternate in linux the document of which is very much compatible with ms office
[07:26] <ryuk> hmm.. so u got no boot loader.. intersting..
[07:26] <zedQ> bruenig, like  20070712 (date) is good
[07:26] <code_eater> towlieba, i don't think so
[07:26] <oxeimon> I can't even get onto the internet from the live-cd
[07:27] <oxeimon> should I be able to??
[07:27] <ubuntu> any suggestions on what to do since runnng sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg didn't work??
[07:27] <towlieba> code_eater, some of the post on that forum suggested it was a problem with the hard drive controller....
[07:27] <bruenig> zedQ, oh that should be pretty simple, are you doing it recursively or is there just a bunch of loose files in a directory?
[07:27] <zedQ> bruenig, oh wait, sorry.  a simple replacing the whole name with a number is fine
[07:27] <zedQ> bruenig, just in one directory
[07:27] <ryuk> not sure.. i havnt used one since 6.06 and that was on a non internet inabled comp
[07:27] <LukeEkbla1> MajorPayne:    Um, anything?
[07:27] <code_eater> jonathan_, ok, what about this
[07:27] <zedQ> incrementing number
[07:28] <MajorPayne> LukeEkbla1: There is lots of widgets for Gnome.
[07:28] <TheNo1Yeti> zedQ: I know how to do what you want but only to every file in a folder, not to just specific ones based on modification date.
[07:28] <ryuk> if only i had my live cd here..
[07:28] <zedQ> TheNo1Yeti, all files in one folder
[07:28] <code_eater> towlieba, yup is look like that, but i hope, that after installing on hd will be ok
[07:28] <ryuk> will brb.. gotta try somethin..
[07:28] <LukeEkbla1> MajorPayne:  ok, how do i get em?
[07:28] <MajorPayne> LukeEkbla1: Your volume control on the pannel is a widget.
[07:28] <towlieba> code_eater, i hope so... dammit i got the error again!!!!!!!
[07:29] <oxeimon> kk thanks
[07:29] <bruenig> zedQ, files right, no directories?
[07:29] <zedQ> bruenig, right
[07:29] <shiester_miester> gday everyone
[07:29] <MajorPayne> LukeEkbla1: aptitude
[07:29] <code_eater> towlieba, for you information, i had similarly problem when trying to install freebsd, was hard, :)
[07:30] <zedQ> bruenig, rename entire name of all files, in a simple ascending numeric value, sorted by modification date
[07:30] <jonathan_> installing file.tar.gz
[07:30] <LukeEkbla1> MajorPayne:   no, i mean desktop widgets, like yahoo widgets, google gadgets, you know
[07:30] <MajorPayne> LukeEkbla1: Ohh.  Sorry.  I don't know.
[07:30] <zedQ> gdesklets
[07:30] <code_eater> jonathan_, ok, u want a compile source, where is problem
[07:30] <bruenig> zedQ, what about if any of the files have the same date?
[07:30] <bruenig> zedQ, then it will overwrite
[07:31] <zedQ> bruenig, arent the files dated to the second
[07:31] <robby> Well im going toask a question or small fav. (depends on how you look at it).  But if give a  line or 2 of ver easy code, could some make a small  z y z algorithm to repersent the the operations?
[07:31] <jonathan_> after tar -zxvf /home/jonathan/Desktop/file.tar.gz
[07:31] <ubuntu> can anybody help me out
[07:31] <jonathan_> than
[07:31] <jonathan_> cd
[07:31] <LukeEkbla1> Anyone know if there are any widgets for ubuntu?
[07:31] <bruenig> zedQ, ok well you said date, so you want it to say date-time
[07:31] <jonathan_> what cd?
[07:31] <shiester_miester> ubuntu, probably
[07:31] <bruenig> or what is the format again
[07:31] <ca1> What are ways to increase the speed of a computer that runs ubuntu?
[07:32] <zedQ> bruenig, no.  I just want to rename all files in a folder with a simple  0001.txt  ,   0002.txt,  etc  , but ordered by modificiation date
[07:32] <shiester_miester> can the partition editor in the ubuntu feisty live cd resize existing ntfs partitions safely without loss of data, if the partitions have free space?
[07:32] <TheNo1Yeti> bruenig: date-time is normal format.   But if you batch process it and then try to rebatch process it your going to have issues as it will have multiple files edited at the exact same time
[07:32] <LogicalDash> I use the Dvorak keyboard and sometimes I like to play Flash games. Some games require me to switch to QWERTY to control, but doing that using the GNOME keyboard applet doesn't seem to affect Flash apps--they'll still assume the Dvorak layout, even though I changed the layout for all windows. Help?
[07:32] <bruenig> zedQ, you just said a second ago that you wanted the filename to be the date
[07:32] <LogicalDash> ca1: you could install Xubuntu.
[07:32] <zedQ> bruenig, just number will be fine
[07:33] <robby> Anyone understand Algorithms..?
[07:33] <ubuntu> shiester_miester --- i've done the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and setup everything like normal but when i go to login my taskbar and menues are all messed up im running in failsafe mode right now i have a radeon 9500 i tried reading installs on the newest drivers for it but i just upgraded to 7.04 from 6.10 hense the new problem
[07:33] <Bonz> I have a graphics question if anyone can help me out...
[07:33] <bruenig> zedQ, ok so how many files are there then, how many 0's do you need before the number
[07:33] <peepsalot> what should I do if a package can not be authenticated?
[07:33] <zedQ> bruenig, I guess 4 digits total
[07:33] <shiester_miester> ubuntu, oh ok
[07:33] <tbf> hi, any idea when launchpad will be back?
[07:33] <MajorPayne> LogicalDash: I also use Dvorak but I don't play flash games.  Maybe if you try changing the layout before loading the game or before loading firefox.  That may work.
[07:33] <jonathan_> ah
[07:34] <jonathan_> forget that!
[07:34] <bruenig> zedQ, ok my method will do it to the minute, are there any files that might have same date same minute?
[07:34] <jonathan_> bye
[07:34] <ubuntu> shiester_miester ---  and if i do isntall ati drivers in this failsafe mode will it care over to my  reg login?
[07:34] <Bonz> Can someone answer a graphics question of mine, I just installed ubuntu for the very first time today and am new to Linux completely.  I think I did it right but there is a problem
[07:34] <zedQ> bruenig, cant you do a simple sorting by modification date?  the date wont be in the filename.  they'll just be renamed in that order
[07:35] <robby> man im screwed
[07:35] <LukeEkbla1> dose anyone know of any widgets for ubuntu?
[07:35] <MajorPayne> Bonz: You have to discribe the problem.
[07:35] <zedQ> gdesklets
[07:35] <oxeimon> has anyone here installed Ubuntu 7.04?
[07:35] <Bonz> I was going to, but it seemed no one was paying attention anyways
[07:35] <code_eater> Bonz, let me ask u, problem?
[07:35] <tbf> ah... duh... ok.... launchpad.net/ubuntu, not ubuntu.launchpad.net
[07:35] <TheNo1Yeti> oxeimon: on several computers, why?
[07:35] <oxeimon> ryuk: I sent you a private message btw
[07:35] <tbf> the error message is confusing
[07:35] <ubuntu> oxeimon i did tyrin to get a driver problem fixed
[07:35] <MajorPayne> !ask | Bonz
[07:35] <ubotu> Bonz: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:35] <bruenig> zedQ, here is my idea, we use ls -l to figure out the date and time, we rename the files with the date and time, then we use the sort utility to name them in order so that the first date and time is moved to 0001 and so forth and so on
[07:35] <oxeimon> have you had problems with not getting a boot loader?
[07:35] <ryuk> did ya.. i didnt get it..
[07:36] <Bonz> I have an ATI x1900gt graphics card, and after going through the instructions to install the drivers...I restarted and I have a sort of....ghosting at the bottom of the screen
[07:36] <ubuntu> i think i might get an answer though from
[07:36] <Bonz> Not ghosting but...
[07:36] <ubuntu> Bonz --- same prob here
[07:36] <oxeimon> I just tried installing ubuntu 7.04, and was never prompted for a boot loader
[07:36] <Bonz> A copy of different images going on the screen
[07:36] <ubuntu> ati 9500 thou
[07:36] <ryuk> i did have problems wen i fiddled with debian for the first time.. but havnt really had problems in recent memory with ubuntu..
[07:36] <Bonz> I'm at 1600x1200 resolution
[07:36] <oxeimon> never asked whether or not I wanted to install the boot loader
[07:36] <slackorama> bruenig: doesn't ls -t sort by modification?
[07:36] <LogicalDash> MajorPayne: No luck, sorry. One thing that *does* work is to go into a terminal and type setxkbmap -layout en_US, but it's rather inconvenient.
[07:36] <zedQ> bruenig, isnt there a simple command to sort by modification date, like sorting by filename ascending
[07:36] <oxeimon> and now I can't boot either of my OS's
[07:36] <LogicalDash> MajorPayne: and also seems to kind of mess with the functionality of the applet.
[07:36] <bruenig> slackorama, ah much faster
[07:37] <ryuk> oxeimon, there should of been something.. if u have time u can ty downloading the alternate iso..
[07:37] <Bonz> Say I am in firefox, sometimes the ads in firefox show up at the bottom of the screen too
[07:37] <TheNo1Yeti> oxeimon: grub by default is installed
[07:37] <ubuntu> can anyone help me
[07:37] <oxeimon> which alternate iso
[07:37] <oxeimon> I think I might do that
[07:37] <zedQ> bruenig, because many files have the same time to the minute
[07:37] <MajorPayne> LogicalDash: Ahh.  sorry I can't help you.  I really don't have a need to switch out of Dvorak.
[07:37] <ryuk> it is called the alternate iso.. will try to find it for u
[07:37] <LogicalDash> MajorPayne, thanks anyway
[07:37] <ca1> how do you speed up computer that runs already on linux?
[07:37] <LogicalDash> ca1: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will get you xubuntu with no need to reinstall
[07:38] <MajorPayne> cal: Upgrade, xbuntu desktop?
[07:38] <TheNo1Yeti> ca1: Install more ram/faster cpu with better front bus speed.
[07:38] <zedQ> bruenig, if there's no easy way, I guess I'll do research.  I dont want to waste your time if it's involved
[07:38] <shiester_miester> cal, remove every possible process that isnt absolutely essential
[07:38] <Bandit09> How come in konsole when i press the "up" key ^[[A shows up and it doesnt go back to the last line i executed?
[07:38] <shiester_miester> cal, and optimize the ones that are
[07:38] <bruenig> zedQ, alright with ls -t, it will actually be much easier, my only issue now is trying to get it to name it 0001 instead of 1
[07:38] <sysop> jaypro
[07:38] <sysop> err
[07:38] <slackorama> ca1: http://lifehacker.com/software/how-to/give-ubuntu-a-speed-boost-268325.php
[07:38] <bruenig> zedQ, no spaces in the filenames right
[07:38] <zedQ> bruenig, thats ok, just start at 1000
[07:38] <zedQ> bruenig, right
[07:38] <Bandit09> How come in konsole when i press the "up" key ^[[A shows up and it doesnt go back to the last line i executed?
[07:38] <ryuk> http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/
[07:39] <ca1> TheNo1Yeti:  how do I get more RAM? I'm a computer n00b, sorry
[07:39] <ryuk> scrool down and it is at the bottomish of the page..
[07:39] <ubuntu> can someone answer one questino for me please... if i install a driver in failsafe mode it should work for my reg login correct? im trying to fix my vid card prob but theres a lot of questions i guess....
[07:39] <Bandit09> ca1 it's a physical hardware piece inside your machine
[07:39] <MajorPayne> cal: You have to buy it.
[07:40] <oxeimon> 4th item in the list?
[07:40] <oxeimon> ubuntu-7.04-alternate amd64 install?
[07:40] <ubuntu> cal == www.pricewatch.com
[07:40] <Bonz> Anybody know why certain images appear in the bottom of my screen, say for example ads on webpages duplicate themselves at the bottom of my screen
[07:40] <oxeimon> .iso
[07:40] <LogicalDash> I'd like to write a shell script to switch back and forth between keyboard layouts using xkbmap instead of the GNOME keyboard layout. Should be simple I think, but how do I make it test which layout I'm already using?
[07:40] <ryuk> 6th
[07:40] <ca1> slackorama:  will the tips on that link work when I use ubuntu studio?
[07:40] <oxeimon> ryuk btw I sent you a private message, did you get it?
[07:40] <ubuntu>  can someone answer one questino for me please... if i install a driver in failsafe mode it should work for my reg login correct? im trying to fix my vid card prob but theres a lot of questions i guess....
[07:40] <ryuk> unless u want 64bit??
[07:40] <shiester_miester> can the partition editor in the ubuntu feisty live cd resize existing ntfs partitions safely without loss of data, if the partitions have free space?
[07:41] <Bandit09> How come in konsole when i press the "up" key ^[[A shows up and it doesnt go back to the last line i executed?
[07:41] <Bonz> There should be multiple irc channels, this one is out of control xD
[07:41] <oxeimon> 6th??
[07:41] <ryuk> the i386 iso
[07:41] <oxeimon> but my computer's an AMD64
[07:41] <oxeimon> isn't i386 for intel cpus?
[07:41] <nomic> what is a way of getting the ip address of an ubuntu box for the purposes of FTP?
[07:41] <ubuntu> i dl ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-x86.x86_64.run  what do i to do install it?
[07:41] <code_eater> Bonz, yup, true
[07:41] <nomic> anyone
[07:42] <sumigamer> guys is kiba dock in any repo??
[07:42] <towlieba> is there a way to tell ubuntu not to use or ignore the floppy device?
[07:42] <MajorPayne> nomic: Are you behind a router?
[07:42] <Bonz> It seems to only be a problem in 1600x1200 resolution, but I don't want to downgrade my resolution on a 20" monitor
[07:42] <nomic> wireless router majorpayne
[07:42] <ryuk> make that 8th.. yea.. there seems to be less support for packages with the a64 version... as it is a 64 bit os.. but thei386 iso tends to be reliable and have better support.. (in my findings anyway)
[07:42] <athonus> quick question.  Trying to install vsftpd and when i /etc/vsftpd.conf i get permission denied. can anyone help?
[07:42] <TheNo1Yeti> Bandit09: Do you have keyboard layout set to xterm?
[07:42] <oxeimon> ah ok
[07:43] <ryuk> but as i said u cna use the 64 bit one if u want..
[07:43] <oxeimon> you're sure that'll work on an amd machine?
[07:43] <Bandit09> TheNo1Yeti yes i do
[07:43] <MajorPayne> nomic: First you will have to set up port forwarding.  And then you will have to find out the ip of the router.  Best way to do it is just use one of the online sites that will give you your ip.
[07:43] <nomic> right thanks majorpayne
[07:43] <MajorPayne> nomic: Make sure you set up port forwarding or it will not work.  FTP works on port 21.
[07:43] <sumigamer> when i install the kiba dock deb package, it tells me to install the kiba plugins package. When i install the plugins package, it tells me to install the dock package!!!! What the heck is this??
[07:43] <ryuk> yes.. i can guarantee u it does (it works on mine..)
[07:44] <ryuk> think of it like this a64 is like xp64 and i386 is like XP usual..
[07:44] <oxeimon> ah kk
[07:44] <TheNo1Yeti> Bandit09: What shell is it executing.  Bash or something else?
[07:44] <oxeimon> cool I'll try that the
[07:44] <oxeimon> can you respond to my private message
[07:44] <oxeimon> it's easier to hold a conversation in there
[07:44] <oxeimon> instead of in the general chat
[07:44] <code_eater> sumigamer, dependencies ?
[07:44] <ca1> does deleting cache and cookies increase browser speed?
[07:45] <ryuk> lol.. i could ever find them (kinda an irc noob)..
[07:45] <MajorPayne> cal: dleting cache will slow down the browser.  That's why they have a cache, to speed it up.
[07:45] <oxeimon> hahah
[07:45] <oxeimon> kk
[07:45] <oxeimon> me too
[07:45] <oxeimon> I just dl'd irc today
[07:45] <oxeimon> just for this channel
[07:45] <oxeimon> lol
[07:45] <Tones> if i'm wanting to download drivers, which distro type do i download if they don't have an ubuntu one? like redhat or wah?
[07:45] <MajorPayne> !enter | oxeimon
[07:45] <ubotu> oxeimon: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:46] <ryuk> same here
[07:46] <LogicalDash> Tones: you want debian packages, they end in .deb
[07:46] <Tones> ah
[07:46] <Tones> damn.....hp don't do debian >.<
[07:46] <LogicalDash> =(
[07:46] <ryuk> so uhh how do i get private messages???
[07:46] <Tones> i've got the choice of redhat or suse
[07:46] <oxeimon> another question:
[07:46] <bruenig> zedQ, ok switch into the directory and issue this command, this doesn't actually do anything, it should print a list though: NUM="1000" ; for file in $(ls -tl | awk '/r/ {print $8}') ; do echo "$file $NUM"; let "NUM++" ; done
[07:46] <oxeimon> oh
[07:46] <LogicalDash> Tones: there does exist a utility called alien which can convert between .rpm and .deb but it's not very reliable
[07:47] <oxeimon> it's just under the menu bar
[07:47] <ubuntu> can someone please help me install a driver?
[07:47] <ubuntu> i have it dl
[07:47] <oxeimon> there should be a tab called "freenode ryuk"
[07:47] <oxeimon> and another called "#ubuntu"
[07:47] <LogicalDash> Tones, might be worth the attempt anyway, sudo apt-get install alien if you want to
[07:47] <zedQ> bruenig, ok, I'll try it
[07:47] <oxeimon> and another called "oxeimon"
[07:47] <varka> Tones: driver for what kind of hardware=
[07:47] <varka> ?
[07:47] <oxeimon> click on the oxeimon
[07:47] <MajorPayne> !enter | oxeimon
[07:47] <ubotu> oxeimon: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:47] <ryuk> just have freenode.. no other channels
[07:47] <ubuntu> wtf did i reach my question limit or somethin
[07:47] <Tones> hmmm might try that....need a raid driver otherwise i can't even install ubuntu on my server >.<
[07:47] <oxeimon> weird...
[07:48] <Tones> varka for a scsi raid
[07:48] <zedQ> NUM="1000" ; for file in $(ls -tl | awk '/r/ {print $8}') ; do echo "$file $NUM"; let "NUM++" ; done
[07:48] <oxeimon> another question though, and this might be of some interest. Right before I install(Im trying to install the amd64 version again, since it's taking time to download and install nero to burn the iso)...
[07:48] <nomic> are scsi drives still faster than ide drives?
[07:48] <Tones> yup
[07:48] <LogicalDash> ubuntu, you should present as much information as you think is relevant all in one line, that makes it easier for people to figure out if they can help you
[07:48] <oxeimon> there's an advanced button that gives me a menu:
[07:48] <nomic> cool
[07:48] <oxeimon> "Boot loader: Device for boot loader installaion:"
[07:49] <disinterested> ubuntu dud u extract the driver?
[07:49] <Tones> well....not in my case actually, ide works and scsi does not.....so that makes ide faster :P
[07:49] <disinterested> did
[07:49] <necrite_> hi all
[07:49] <oxeimon> and then, it says(the default), "(hd0)"
[07:49] <bruenig> zedQ, does that look good?
[07:49] <zedQ> bruenig, Oh, I see.  yes, except the order is backwards
[07:49] <bruenig> zedQ, really?
[07:49] <zedQ> yes
[07:49] <necrite_> i have one server with load average "3" but when i run top.. i dont see any proccess using the cpu....do u have any way to know which proccess is using the cpu?
[07:50] <slackorama> bruenig: mmm, awk
[07:50] <ryuk> hmm not really sure..
[07:50] <Tones> LogicalDash is there any specific rpm version i should look at? can choose redhat 7.1,7.2,7.3,8.0
[07:50] <TheNo1Yeti> I so need to learn how to use awk.  Right now awk > me.
[07:50] <slackorama> zedQ: try ls -tlr instead
[07:50] <zedQ> ok
[07:50] <ryuk> how are your partions set up on your comp??
[07:50] <oxeimon> ryuk: thing is, I don't know what hd0 is. My partitions are currently called /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2...etc
[07:51] <zedQ> ok, order is right now
[07:51] <MajorPayne> Tones: Red Hat 8.0 is quite old.  That was my first Linux distro (many years ago).
[07:51] <LogicalDash> Tones, I have no idea, but you should look at the dependencies if they give you that information and choose the version that the Ubuntu repository contains packages for.
[07:51] <sumigamer_> when I install the kiba dock deb package, it tells me to first install  the kiba plugins palckage. when i install the kiba-plugins package, it tells me to install the kiba dock pakage!!! What the heck is this??
[07:51] <zedQ> NUM="1000" ; for file in $(ls -tlr | awk '/r/ {print $8}') ; do echo "$file $NUM"; let "NUM++" ; done      looks good
[07:51] <bruenig> zedQ, ok so then do this: NUM="1001" ; for file in $(ls -tlr | awk '/r/ {print $8}') ; do mv $file $NUM.txt ; let "NUM++" ; done
[07:51] <LogicalDash> Tones, that is, you want the .rpm to only have dependencies that you can satisfy.
[07:51] <zedQ> bruenig, ok
[07:52] <oxeimon> I have two main partitions, one for windows, another that's ext3 for ubuntu, and another swap partition that kinda came out of nowhere
[07:52] <oxeimon> and another one that's like 900mb, that also came out of nowhere
[07:52] <asc> Any of all y'all find that running winecfg crashes ubuntu? (or at least xorg?)
[07:52] <zedQ> bruenig, that worked.  thanks!
[07:52] <shiester_miester> bruenig, you seem to be in here a LOT
[07:52] <bruenig> zedQ, see now you could have done that
[07:52] <shiester_miester> bruenig, do you ever do anything else? :P
[07:52] <zedQ> bruenig, um... I dont think so
[07:52] <MajorPayne> oxigen: The swap partition is for Ubuntu.  Kinda like a swap file for Windows.  When your computer gets low on ram it will swap out parts of memory to the swap partition.
[07:52] <LogicalDash> Tones, I guess that the older version is more likely to have dependencies that are in the repositories.
[07:53] <ryuk> hmm u should have the windows parition, the ubuntu partionand a swap partion (basically the swap file like the one in windows)
[07:53] <shiester_miester> bruenig, do you have a job or other passtime?
[07:53] <sumigamer_> when I install the kiba dock deb package, it tells me to first install  the kiba plugins palckage. when i install the kiba-plugins package, it tells me to install the kiba dock pakage!!! What the heck is this??
[07:53] <MajorPayne> oxigen: I am not sure about the 900 mb, maybe /boot?
[07:53] <bruenig> shiester_miester, you are always in here when I am in here
[07:53] <ryuk> do u happen to have a copy of norton ghost??
[07:53] <oxeimon> dont think soo
[07:53] <oxeimon> :-\
[07:53] <shiester_miester> bruenig, true, true.  I'm usually paying attention between bursts of work
[07:53] <MajorPayne> oxigen: type df.
[07:54] <oxeimon> ryuk: Thing is, I still don't know what hd0 is
[07:54] <Tones> sounds like hard work :P
[07:54] <LogicalDash> ryuk and oxeimon, when I did something similar, gnome partition editor worked ok
[07:54] <MajorPayne> oxigen: In the shell.  That will tell you where it is being mounted.
[07:54] <sumigamer_> when I install the kiba dock deb package, it tells me to first install  the kiba plugins palckage. when i install the kiba-plugins package, it tells me to install the kiba dock pakage!!! What the heck is this??
[07:54] <LogicalDash> n/m
[07:54] <ryuk> that just refs to the first partion on the hdd (the mbr)
[07:54] <bruenig> shiester_miester, yeah that is true here too, I spend a lot of time working on zenwalk stuff
[07:54] <shiester_miester> bruenig, working as in, employment working?
[07:55] <bruenig> shiester_miester, work as in volunteer
[07:55] <shiester_miester> ah ok
[07:55] <oxeimon> so hd0 is fine then?
[07:55] <code_eater> sumigamer, check version, maybe he is asking bout proper version of package
[07:55] <shiester_miester> i meant employment :P
[07:55] <ryuk> i think
[07:55] <TheNo1Yeti> tripwire --check | cat >> ~/tripwire    <-- That should output the data that would be appended to my screen to the file tripwire instead right?
[07:55] <bruenig> shiester_miester, ha why would I do that
[07:55] <ryuk> if i could get vmware up and running properly i would tell ya..
[07:55] <shiester_miester> bruenig, lol!  to get money?  same reason i do it :P
[07:55] <bruenig> shiester_miester, how old are you
[07:55] <Tones> work is overated :P
[07:55] <oxeimon> what's vmware/how do I get it
[07:55] <shiester_miester> although there isnt much money in what im doing at the moment
[07:56] <oxeimon> remember I don't have access to the internet on that computer lol
[07:56] <TheNo1Yeti> !vmware > oxeimon
[07:56] <oxeimon> world > oxeimon
[07:56] <shiester_miester> emphasis on SMALL
[07:56] <TheNo1Yeti> !vmware
[07:56] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[07:56] <shiester_miester> atm its just me and a designer
[07:56] <shiester_miester> cos i cant design and he cant code :P
[07:57] <TheNo1Yeti> lol.  That is a great setup then shiester.
[07:57] <shiester_miester> i wouldnt mind a few more clients :(
[07:57] <bruenig> shiester_miester, I am 18, I got a full ride to a mediocre university, so I am good to go for four years on money for the most part, so I try not to work seeing as the jobs I will be able to get are crap and I don't really need the money except to buy superfluous fun stuff
[07:57] <shiester_miester> bruenig, 18!?  you have way too much knowledge of linux to be 18, lol
[07:57] <ryuk> just a virtualisation program.. so i can run this stuff next to u with out any affects on my comp..
[07:57] <shiester_miester> i thought you were like, 30 or something
[07:57] <Frogzoo> mm.. if I make changes in /etc/event.d/* which daemon do I HUP to reread them ?
[07:57] <shiester_miester> you act very mature and whatnot
[07:58] <bruenig> shiester_miester, I have only been using linux for 13 months actually
[07:58] <shiester_miester> holy crap
[07:58] <shiester_miester> O_O
[07:58] <TheNo1Yeti> bruenig: One benefit to working now though.  You get your trench work done so when you get out of college you can move straight to admin/ops/etc
[07:58] <MajorPayne> I have never not had a job since I was 16.
[07:58] <shiester_miester> bruenig, yeah i went to uni, graduated from Bachelor of I.T in december last year :D
[07:58] <Frogzoo> offtopic -> #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:58] <shiester_miester> hasn't helped me find work much, though...
[07:58] <shiester_miester> aww....fine, fine
[07:59] <TheNo1Yeti> shiester, offtopic channel is fun though. :)
[07:59] <shiester_miester> im sure it is
[07:59] <imbecile> can someone tell me how to install this? http://ipodlinux.org/Installer_2  i cant figure out how to run the file... please help
[08:01] <code_eater> imbecile, u don't know how to open tar.gz?
[08:01] <LogicalDash> imbecile, open a terminal, type "sudo apt-get install libpng3 libssl0.9.7", then navigate to the directory where you saved the install script and type "bash " followed by the name of the install script
[08:01] <imbecile> LogicalDash,  thanks
[08:01] <LogicalDash> np
[08:01] <oxeimon> shiester: a friend of mine (19 now), has been using linux ever since he was 12
[08:01] <oxeimon> lol
[08:02] <code_eater> hehe, my first system was basic 1.1 ;)
[08:03] <oxeimon> code_eater: lol what the hell is basic
[08:03] <robby> mine.  commador64
[08:03] <code_eater> amstrad cpc464
[08:03] <Orraj> hey anyone know a good book to learn lunix networking and/or networking in general w/out become just numbers?
[08:03] <shiester_miester> Orraj, just numbers?
[08:03] <shiester_miester> what do u mean by that?
[08:04] <MajorPayne> Orraj: What do you mean "w/out become just numbers?"
[08:04] <robby> $ "-------| Welcom to my simple print random stuff program |------"
[08:04] <TheNo1Yeti> Like a stastic of the number of people who go insane when they try to understand the interwebs?
[08:04] <bruenig> robby, judging from that line, it doesn't appear to be working
 stats a overly complicated book, id like one that maybe uses metaphors and something else i can relate to to learn.
[08:05] <Drew3b> Hi all,  how do yo setup a printer in cups (xubuntu)
[08:05] <bruenig> or super coincidence
[08:05] <shiester_miester> Orraj, well you probably won't end up learning much about it if you don't want to get into the complicated stuff
[08:05] <LogicalDash> Drew3b: System menu -> Administration -> Printing
[08:05] <towlieban> code_eater,  thanks but i looked at that and didnt find anything helpful. this happens when i try to boot from the livecd
[08:05] <robby> bruenig:  lol i was talking about my old Commador 64 computer i had long ago
[08:05] <towlieban> oops
[08:06] <bruenig> Drew3b, you can use the web interface also which is the same across all distros and DEs, http://localhost:631/
[08:06] <code_eater> towlieban, fu....
 well can you think of something i should read to familiarize myself w/ the terminal before jumping into networking?
[08:06] <Orraj> aww he left
[08:06] <code_eater> towlieban, fas question, is was your first ubuntu install?
[08:07] <towlieban> code_eater, sorry repaste
[08:07] <towlieban> code_eater, no luck with those tips i still get the error
[08:07] <bruenig> oh wait the web interface won't work on ubuntu because of the no root account
[08:07] <Orraj> can you guys think of something i should read to familiarize myself w/ the terminal before jumping into networking?
[08:07] <towlieban> code_eater, no but the first on this system
[08:07] <LogicalDash> Orraj, linuxcommand.org
[08:08] <LogicalDash> oh um...
[08:08] <slackorama> bruenig: what else runs on odd ports on localhost? (thanks for this one)
[08:08] <Dysk> When mplayer crashes and leaves the sound card in use, does one of you know how/if it's possible to get it back available without rebooting?
[08:08] <towlieban> code_eater, ive installed ubuntu a few times, but under a VM
[08:08] <Drew3b> bruenig:  I have been looking for that for 90 minutes, I could not remember of find the 'url'
[08:08] <LogicalDash> Orraj, I guess I misunderstood your question a tiny bit, that site only gives you the basics needed for shell scripting and maybe you wanted more depth than that if you're going to use the command line for networky stuff
[08:08] <towlieban> and once a while back on an older laptop
[08:09] <imbecile> LogicalDash,  it says that it cant execute binary file
[08:09] <LogicalDash> ah
[08:09] <bruenig> slackorama, that's all I know of and only because that is how a lot of distros deal with cups, just drop you into web interface
[08:09] <joules> hey everyone.. i am growing frustrated. i reinstalled my windows and resized that partition. then i rebooted and it only opened windows. i fixed grub or so i think .. so now it shows my ubuntu and windows. when i select ubuntu it gives me error 15. no data found or something like that. now when i run the live cd and look at the partition editor or the installer partition manager it tells me that there is a unallocated partition and nothing else. 
[08:09] <LogicalDash> imbecile, try ./<filename> then
[08:09] <ryuk> does anyone have any any ideas why vmware player is not working, when i run it i get this error "/usr/lib/vmware-player/bin/vmplayer: /usr/lib/vmware-player/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[08:09] <ryuk> "
[08:09] <kristjan_> how do I see such things in linux like my ram Hz or my harddrive rounds per minute?
[08:09] <imbecile> LogicalDash,  thanks again man
[08:09] <LogicalDash> imbecile, no problem
[08:10] <code_eater> towlieban, hmm, so will be problem with hardware, my advice is to check this,
[08:10] <Orraj> logicaldash, yea i would like to know everything i can about the cmds and distro sensitive items. if you catch my drift
[08:10] <yehweh> hello everyone, my applets have moved from the top panel and i cant figure out how to move them back. please look at the screenshot. http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/3653/screenshotco4.png
[08:10] <towlieban> code i think it might be my ide controller
[08:10] <the_padawan> hi all, how can i change the screen resolution in tty1?
[08:10] <towlieban> code_eater, i am starting to believe its my ide controller
[08:10] <kristjan_> the_padawan: with vga= line in boot menu
[08:11] <code_eater> towlieban, yup
[08:11] <LogicalDash> imbecile, for future reference, you use the "bash" command to run shell scripts and ./ to let the command line know that you're not trying to get it to search your $PATH for executables, but rather to run an executable *in this very folder*
[08:11] <joules> nobody has any ide :(
[08:11] <kristjan_> the_padawan: you get correct vga lines list with "sudo hwinfo --framebuffer"
[08:11] <towlieban> code_eater, i have an ata pci card.
[08:11] <LogicalDash> imbecile, the $PATH is the list of directories where the terminal looks for executable files
[08:11] <oxeimon2> man that iso downloads so
[08:11] <oxeimon2> slow
[08:11] <towlieban> code_eater, is it possible to boot from it ?
[08:11] <ryuk> lol
[08:11] <code_eater> towlieban, lspci, check output
[08:11] <towlieban> code_eater, i cant get to a cli
[08:11] <Ashton_K> Wrong tab.
[08:12] <Ashton_K> I've got several devices mounted (partitions actually), but I find the hard drive icons on the desktop annoying.
[08:12] <code_eater> towlieban, a, yes
[08:12] <Ashton_K> How can I get rid of them?
[08:12] <Orraj> anyone know of a good graphical front in for automated start apps. order of operations would be nice
[08:12] <Ashton_K> (I want the partitions still mounted, but I always access them through the places menu, and I want them off my desktop)
[08:12] <kristjan_> the_padawan: look for "# defoptions=quiet vga=" in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:12] <imbecile> LogicalDash, thanks.. i like when people actually tell me what im doing rather than just giving me an answe.. thats the only way i'll learn
[08:12] <oxeimon2> ahh cool I got it from the ubuntu website. Its going a lot faster now :-D
[08:13] <towlieban> code_eater, i tried putting both hard drive and cdrom but it wont boot from the cdrom. i tried putting the hd on the ata card and the cdrom on the mobo but i get the same error
[08:13] <kristjan_> the_padawan: btw, you have to install hwinfo with synaptics (not there by default)
[08:13] <the_padawan> kristjan_, thanks a ton, i'm looking into it all
[08:13] <the_padawan> yep, got it =)
[08:13] <code_eater> towlieban, is the same error?
[08:13] <dawn`chorus> Ashton_K, alt-f2: gconf-editor.  apps> nautilus > desktop
[08:13] <towlieban> yes
[08:13] <Ashton_K> Thanks.
[08:13] <dawn`chorus> Ashton_K, you're welcome.
[08:13] <towlieban> code_eater, yes
[08:14] <LogicalDash> imbecile, you might want to check out http://linuxcommand.org, it's a good intro to the command line
[08:14] <kristjan_> the_padawan: after you change the vga= to more appropriate value in /boot/grub/menu.lst you have to run "sudo update-grub"
[08:14] <yehweh> guys one of you want to take a look at my problem please right click and move doesnt work on this. Please look at the top center of the screensots there are 4 applets on the top panel.  http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/3653/screenshotco4.png
[08:14] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[08:15] <imbecile> LogicalDash,  i just bookmarked it.. im installing linux on my ipod now
[08:15] <LogicalDash> ^_^
[08:15] <kristjan_> the_padawan: one thing more - I believe that only 16bit resos will show pretty splash screen.
[08:15] <LogicalDash> imbecile, have fun
[08:15] <code_eater> towlieban, give me sek, i'll check something
[08:15] <towlieban> ok
[08:15] <the_padawan> kristjan_, you are certainly helpful and knowledgable. thank you kindly
[08:17] <joules> anyone wants to help me plizzzz
[08:17] <joules> hey everyone.. i am growing frustrated. i reinstalled my windows and resized that partition. then i rebooted and it only opened windows. i fixed grub or so i think .. so now it shows my ubuntu and windows. when i select ubuntu it gives me error 15. no data found or something like that. now when i run the live cd and look at the partition editor or the installer partition manager it tells me that there is a unallocated partition and nothing else. 
[08:17] <LukeEkbla1> I need help.  I just downloaded an unsuported beryl plugin then after i installed it i couldent open Add/Remove.  This happened erlier today and somebody helped me with it and it worked, but i forgot how to fix it
[08:19] <joules> i know that it might be easier to just reinstall ubuntu .. and thats why i have a fat32 partition so that i could share data with windows (and also a /home partition) but when i try to install ubuntu it only gives me the option to use the whole drive .. meaning that it would delete my other partitions .. and that cant happen!
[08:19] <bruenig> LukeEkbla1, you can use the two cop out commands, sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get install -f
[08:19] <towlieban> this is why i am trying (unsuccessfully) to install ubuntu on a seperate computer on an empty hard drive
[08:19] <Frogzoo> joules: manual partitioning might be your best option
[08:20] <LukeEkbla1> Errors were encountered while processing:
[08:20] <LukeEkbla1>  /var/cache/apt/archives/beryl-plugins-unsupported_0.2.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
[08:20] <LukeEkbla1> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[08:20] <LukeEkbla1> luke@luke-laptop:~$
[08:20] <bruenig> uh no
[08:20] <TheNo1Yeti> Anyone know what /proc/15090/fd/3 is normally?
[08:20] <towlieban> bah this sucks
[08:20] <joules> Frogzoo:  yes i thought so but my other partitions dont come up on manual partition .. according to the live cd i have a blank drive
[08:20] <bruenig> LukeEkbla1, sudo apt-get remove beryl-plugins-unsupported
[08:21] <LukeEkbla1> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[08:21] <LukeEkbla1>   beryl-plugins-unsupported-data: Depends: beryl-plugins-unsupported but it is not going to be installed
[08:21] <LukeEkbla1> E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[08:21] <joules> frogzoo: but i know the other partitions are there because as i said my fat32 one comes up on windows .. plus i my windows partition.. and others
[08:21] <bruenig> LukeEkbla1, sudo apt-get remove beryl-plugins-unsupported-data
[08:22] <varun0> my mouse is acting funny on a fresh ubuntu install.........the cursor only moves around the edges, but disappears if I move it from the edges
[08:23] <LukeEkbla1> bruenig:  Yayeee!
[08:23] <bruenig> LukeEkbla1, oh wow I was certain that would fail
[08:23] <joules> !! uh.. this is so not fun
[08:24] <LukeEkbla1> bruenig:  You fixed it! and it dident tack a day and a night like last time
[08:24] <oxeimon2> ryuk: hey, I think I'm gonna call it a night. It's already 2:22am over here
[08:24] <TaJMoX> im having a blast - ubuntu is great after its all set up
[08:24] <LukeEkbla1> you get a medal  * Gives bruenig a Medal :)
[08:24] <oxeimon2> ryuk: but thank you so much for your help
[08:24] <LukeEkbla1> TaJMoX:  you got it man
[08:25] <oxeimon2> ryuk: so yeah. night
[08:26] <towlieban> whats wrong with this ? mount /dev/fd0 fd
[08:26] <Incandenzian> does anyone know how to remap keys?
[08:26] <oxeimon2> mount /
[08:26] <towlieban> i get the error "invalid argument"
[08:26] <Incandenzian> I installed kbd but can't seem to figure it out.
[08:26] <oxeimon2> towlieban: make the mount: "/"
[08:26] <towlieban> i dont want to do that
[08:26] <oxeimon2> assuming you're trying to manually partition a disk to install ubuntu?
[08:26] <oxeimon2> um, that's what you have to do
[08:26] <oxeimon2> lol
[08:26] <towlieban> oxeimon2, no i am not
[08:27] <oxeimon2> ah nvm then
[08:27] <towlieban> i cant install ubuntu
[08:27] <unagi> hello all
[08:28] <bruenig> !hi | unagi
[08:28] <ubotu> unagi: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:29] <oxeimon2> !help
[08:29] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[08:31] <towlieban> dammit
[08:31] <towlieban> i give up
[08:31] <towlieban> ill never get ubuntu to work
[08:31] <oxeimon2> never give up
[08:31] <code_eater> towlieban, never give up
[08:31] <oxeimon2> o.O
[08:32] <oxeimon2> word
[08:32] <towlieban> been trying for 2 hoursa
[08:32] <oxeimon2> I've been trying to install ubuntu for the last 8 hours
[08:32] <tuxix> towlieban: giving up is a windows user behaviour :)
[08:32] <oxeimon2> I've also managed to almost break my windows XP installation
[08:32] <oxeimon2> and possibly even lose all my data
[08:32] <code_eater> i'm traying to install blfs last 2 months
[08:32] <towlieban> ive already got ubuntu installed in a vm on my macbook pro but i wanted to install it on my desktop
[08:32] <oxeimon2> but! giving up is for los0rz
[08:33] <tuxix> oxeimon2: still the same pb?
[08:33] <unagi> towlieban:  whats the problem
[08:33] <towlieban> i think that the installer doesnt like my ide controller
[08:33] <unagi> i say again towlieban whats the problem
[08:33] <towlieban> the installer crashes with the error "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off "
[08:34] <towlieban> ill try fedora. maybe ill have better luck
[08:34] <unagi> tty is the terminal
[08:34] <towlieban> yea i know
[08:35] <code_eater> towlieban, u use "Boot with Driver CD"
[08:35] <towlieban> yea
[08:35] <towlieban> it tries to read me floppy
[08:35] <towlieban> my
[08:35] <towlieban> then gives me that error after a while
[08:35] <unagi> whered u get the drivers
[08:35] <towlieban> i didnt
[08:35] <tuxix> towlieban: the ubuntu-fr documentation says : use net-install
[08:36] <towlieban> tuxix, where do i enter that ?
[08:36] <joules> k .. im going with only one question... when i do sudo fdisk -l it gives me 5 partitions
[08:36] <joules>    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
[08:36] <joules> /dev/sda1   *           1        1275    10241406    c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)

[08:36] <joules> i know it looks weird but thats not the problem... when i run the partition manager or partition editor .. it says i have a undistributed drive ... does not recognize any of my drives..
[08:36] <tuxix> towlieban: u have to download the net install iso
[08:36] <towlieban> nah forget it
[08:36] <tuxix> it's the lightest
[08:36] <towlieban> its too much work to get it installed
[08:36] <TaJMoX> Internet is 1% done downloading!
[08:37] <ryuk> oxeimon2, how far did u get in downloading the alternate iso
[08:37] <code_eater> joules, u use root for that ?
[08:37] <joules> code_eater: yeah
[08:37] <tuxix> towlieban: have you tried loading the live cd without the drivers? i think you have a boot option like "start or install ubuntu"
[08:38] <towlieban> tuxix, yep i did
[08:38] <mariachi> hi people!
[08:38] <towlieban> same error
[08:38] <mariachi> is it just me or lately the compiz updates have been almost daily?
[08:38] <amidaniel> Freaked me out .. it locked up for about 15 minutes during the filesystem time check .. was just about to pull the plug and then it woke back up
[08:39] <joules> code_eater: this is what i used  sudo fdisk -l
[08:39] <amidaniel> Likely because the comp I'm installing on is from the stone age though :)
[08:39] <tuxix> towlieban: the french forums seems to speculate on a hardware problem that can't be fixed, except by using the net install
[08:39] <tuxix> so...
[08:39] <towlieban> ok
[08:39] <towlieban> forget it then
[08:39] <towlieban> but thanks for your help
[08:39] <code_eater> joules, u want to resize, or format ?
[08:40] <tuxix> towlieban: or you can try the alternate CD, it worked as well
[08:40] <nikin> hy
[08:40] <towlieban> what alternate ? the net install ?
[08:41] <code_eater> towlieban, no, other
[08:41] <towlieban> what are you talking about
[08:41] <joules> code_eater: i have a bigger problem .. ubuntu wont start when using grub.. it gives me error 15 but even if i wanted to reinstall ubuntu i cant because manual install tells me i have no partitions
[08:41] <happyface> How can I use the Firefox VLC Plugin instead of Totem by default?
[08:42] <ari_stress> hi I know sudo is more secure
[08:42] <tuxix> towlieban: yeah it's another install cd called "alternate" / or you can try to install a previous version of ubuntu like edgy
[08:42] <[11_Touche] _> happyface, I would like to know it too.. !!!
[08:42] <ari_stress> but i'm facing a situation where I need to rsync to a host as root, how can I do that? the host is ubuntu too
[08:42] <towlieban> whats the diff between the usual cd and alternate?
[08:42] <ryuk> happyface, in firefox go edit->preferances
[08:42] <towlieban> more drivers ?
[08:42] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realiyed that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , anz ideas<
[08:43] <tuxix> towlieban: dunno, i'm just giving you answers that worked for some other people, nothing more nothing less :)
[08:43] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[08:43] <ari_stress> sudo rsync -e ssh root@10.0.0.19:/var/lib/samba /var/lib/samba
[08:43] <nikin> towlieban: it does not boot as a live CD but it has some options for recoverz and a text mode installer
[08:43] <code_eater> towlieban, diff is a kernel on install cd, so drivers
[08:43] <ryuk> cancel that
[08:44] <code_eater> joules, what fs u have?
[08:44] <ari_stress> should i just activate the root account in 10.0.0.19?
[08:44] <oxeimon2> code_eater: so the regular cd doesn't have drivers?
[08:45] <CppIsWeird> i am trying to access files n my ubuntu computer from a windows PC. On the windows PC i see the workgroup that the ubuntu box is in and the ubuntu box. But when i double click on the ubuntu box i get that i dont have permissions to access this resource. I set this up so far using system > administration > shared folders. what do i need to do to have other users the ability to access my shares?
[08:45] <towlieban> code_eater, nah its ok i am giving up on this computer
[08:45] <ryuk> happyface, go firefox -> edit -> prefernaces and in the content tab select the filetype button
[08:45] <relativeownershi> hey i'm having trouble with beryl. anybody familiar with it?
[08:45] <tuxix> towlieban: alternate version is like desktop but with the old good linux installer
[08:45] <ryuk> select the file type and selecet vlc plugin as the action
[08:46] <relativeownershi> for some reason my beryl setup stopped working - titlebars and window edges are totally gone. its unusable.
[08:46] <Josesordo> I have a problem with the video :(, now I just have 800x600 resolution..and before I used 1024x768..maybe the nvidia drivers :s
[08:46] <ryuk> relativeownershi, what did u do before this happened??
[08:46] <happyface> thank ryuk, il try that
[08:47] <relativeownershi> ryuk: you know its been having problems for quite a while, i'm not entirely sure.
[08:47] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realized that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , any ideas?
[08:47] <code_eater> oxeimon2, in my opinion, problem is with kernel version (2.6.20-15) on feisty 7.04, on standard  install cd
[08:47] <amidaniel> (I probably shouldn't congratulate until the install is finished, but ... ) props on the installer, guys, one of the most straightforward ones I've seen :)
[08:47] <ryuk> relativeownershi, kk.. wat vid card r u usin and what drivers are u usin for it..
[08:47] <relativeownershi> ryuk: i've reinstalled the beryl packages, disabled and re-enabled "desktop effects", etc...
[08:48] <relativeownershi> ryuk: Nvidia Geforce 4 MX440 64mb DDR
[08:48] <relativeownershi> ryuk: Device driver "nvidia"
[08:48] <ryuk> relativeownershi, are u using the prepritory nvidia drivers??
[08:48] <relativeownershi> ryuk: it runs 3d stuff great, in fact i just finished playing descent rebirth
[08:48] <relativeownershi> ryuk: yessir
[08:49] <ryuk> relativeownershi, aare  usin emerald theme manager??
[08:49] <relativeownershi> anybody else here a descent fan?
[08:49] <relativeownershi> ryuk: yessir
[08:49] <tuxix> relativeownershi: r u usin gnome desktop effects ?
[08:50] <ryuk> yep.. not sure wat your probem may be..
[08:50] <relativeownershi> tuxix: i've tried it with and without...
[08:50] <relativeownershi> tuxix: should i be using desktop-effects? in addition to beryl?
[08:50] <ryuk> relativeownershi, i gather it is off now??
[08:50] <relativeownershi> ryuk: that's right
[08:51] <ryuk> relativeownershi,  it should not on.. dont use them together..
[08:51] <tuxix> relativeownershi: do you start beryl on session start or after?
[08:51] <relativeownershi> ryuk: ok i won't. starts during session startup.
[08:51] <dodo> hi all! how can i get back the function-key "f11" for fullscreen view on "eye of gnome" ???
[08:51] <tuxix> well beryl isn't stable yet so :)
[08:51] <nikin> relativeownershi: i had that problem too, it mises a GL feature.. something like pixmaptotexture.. i go and loo around
[08:51] <relativeownershi> tuxix: yeah but it was working wonderfully earlier
[08:52] <relativeownershi> nikin: omg i totally forgot about that
[08:52] <relativeownershi> nikin lol lemme see if that still in my device section...sure as hell, nope...arg. do you know the option?
[08:52] <relativeownershi> nikin its like aarghpixxmapzzzzzz true
[08:53] <tuxix> relativeownershi: delete /home/xx/.beryl it will reset your settings
[08:53] <relativeownershi> tuxix: oh thats good to know. is there anyway to do that w/o a command line?
[08:53] <dodo> hi all! how can i get back the function-key "f11" for fullscreen view on "eye of gnome" ???
[08:53] <relativeownershi> nikin do you know what that option is?
[08:54] <Spaceman3750> Hey guys, I need to login to the root account, but it won't login from the regular screen.  How do I log into the root account?
[08:54] <nikin> something like that
[08:54] <tuxix> yeah sure, in your home dir > "display hidden files" or something like that (i'm french so i use the french version of ubuntu :))
[08:54] <asc> Intel Core 2 processors are 64-bit?
[08:54] <Spaceman3750> Some
[08:54] <Spaceman3750> Actually, all I think
[08:54] <relativeownershi> nikin: tuxix sweet. i found the problem. the xorg.conf file was missing an option under the device section. in case you're interested the option is 	Option 		"AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[08:54] <nikin> relativeownershi: i am searching for it...
[08:54] <asc> That's interesting. Thanks.
[08:54] <tuxix> nice relativeownershi :)
[08:54] <code_eater> dodo, system-preferences-key. short.?
[08:54] <Spaceman3750> How do I log into the root account?
[08:55] <Spaceman3750> I need it to configure some software that won't let a normal admin do it
[08:55] <togr> Spaceman3750, "sudo su -"
[08:55] <Spaceman3750> Yeah, Ubuntu noob, that's pig latin to me
[08:55] <relativeownershi> anybody else here a descent fan?
[08:55] <nikin> relativeownershi: so thats fixed >D
[08:55] <relativeownershi> nikin yes indeed. much thanks - i'd forgotten that option in device. der
[08:56] <togr> Spaceman3750, open a shell, terminal -- you know how to do that?
[08:56] <Spaceman3750> Yes
[08:56] <relativeownershi> tuxix nikin thanks guys, i'm outy
[08:56] <nikin> relativeownershi: nm
[08:56] <Spaceman3750> That much I do know :P
[08:56] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realized that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , any ideas?
[08:56] <tuxix> no pb
[08:56] <togr> Spaceman3750, type "sudo su -" (without the quotes) in that shell
[08:56] <togr> use your own passwd
[08:56] <Spaceman3750> OK, so sudo su <password>?
[08:56] <togr> no
[08:56] <togr> "sudo su -"
[08:57] <tuxix> sudo su -
[08:57] <togr> you'll be asked for a passwd
[08:57] <Spaceman3750> OOOH, OK
 i can't add something on keyboard-shortcuts ...
[08:57] <Spaceman3750> Then I will have root privileges?
[08:57] <togr> yes
[08:57] <togr> be careful
[08:57] <Spaceman3750> Don't worry, just editing the conf file for Dansguardian
[08:57] <togr> there'll be very few things you cannot do
[08:57] <tuxix> Spaceman3750: most of the config command only need a "sudo" beforeward
[08:58] <code_eater> dodo why? u must put combination, that is all
[08:58] <togr> Spaceman3750, what tuxix said
[08:58] <nikin> anyone using ubuntu on a dual PIII PC?
[08:58] <mvsn> im wondering if someone could help me out... my sound was working just fine.. then suddenly it stopped (Feisty) if i goto sound preferences, I get "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing."... haven't been successfull with google..
 ?
[08:59] <nikin> mvsn ? ALSA or OSS<
[08:59] <nikin> ?
[08:59] <mvsn> alsa
[08:59] <mvsn> its an audigy 2 zs
[09:00] <enyc> nikin: I do ;-)
[09:00] <mvsn> is there a way to restart the driver?
[09:00] <sasukechaos> hey, im real new and having some errors with my tri-boot for a macbook intel core 2 duo. would anyone mind helping me?
[09:00] <mvsn> (rebooting didnt help)
[09:00] <nikin> enyc: and does cat /proc/cpuinfo tel zou about both cpus ?
[09:00] <enyc> nikin: 440BX with dual 550mhz pentium IIIs and 640mbram and 2 scsi controllers and 3 cd drcives and 2 floppy drives and 2 ethernet and 3 monitors and much else ;-)
[09:01] <enyc> nikin: i think it does... im not at that machine now
[09:01] <nikin> enyc: coz mine is just seeing one, but the BIOS sees both 899 Mhy CPU-s
[09:01] <enyc> nikin: alse ill be here in 40mins or so.... at that machine
[09:02] <ryuk> sasukechaos, yea.. just ask your q.. someone may no the answer
[09:02] <enyc> nikin: talk later ;-)
[09:02] <nikin> enyc: sure.. then i stay here for that time
[09:02] <ZeroBlack> irc.quakenet.org:6667
[09:02] <ZeroBlack> ups
[09:02] <Spaceman3750> OK, how do I figure out what my root password is, I set it to one thing and it keeps changing back
[09:03] <nikin> mvsn does the integrated sound work?
[09:03] <holymoly> why do you have a root pass? its disabled on ubuntu for a very good reason
 normally f11 is for fullscreen-view, but somehow i mixed it up or disabled it ... on keyboard-shortcuts isn't something like image-view & i don't know how to add it ...
[09:03] <mvsn> no.. none are detected.. although i did disable the onboard in the bios... I was using my audio about 20 mins ago.. then just stopped..
[09:03] <Spaceman3750> Because I need to edit the configuration for Dansguardian, and only root can do it
[09:03] <Spaceman3750> It's the way the stupid software is set up
[09:03] <holymoly> uh no
[09:03] <holymoly> sudo
[09:04] <Typwn> Helo all
[09:04] <tuxix> Spaceman3750: are you sure sudo isn't enough? try it !
[09:04] <holymoly> !sudo
[09:04] <mvsn> if I force run pulseaudio I get :failed to load  "module-hal-detect" (
[09:04] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:04] <togr> Spaceman3750, you could do "sudo vi dansguardian.conf" or something similar
[09:04] <Typwn> Hello all**
[09:04] <Typwn> I'm having a problem with my network card.
[09:04] <varka> Spaceman3750: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:05] <sasukechaos> Well, I followed the basic triboot installation listed on the help forums. I now have all 3 running (osx, win xp, and 7.0.4) im using rEFIt as my boot loader. anywho. now that ubuntu is installed, OSX runs fine, but when i try to boot XP it starts ubuntu. I get operating system choices, but my up down arrow keys dont work. it then loads to the login screen of ubuntu
[09:05] <Spaceman3750> So, "sudo vi /etc/dansguardian/file.conf" will do it?
[09:05] <togr> try it
[09:05] <nikin> mvsn: hmm... try the integrated one so that we see that it is a HW/driver problem... no other iodeas yet
[09:05] <togr> do you know how to use vi?
[09:05] <Spaceman3750> OK
[09:05] <Spaceman3750> No
[09:05] <mvsn> ok
[09:05] <togr> maybe "gedit" instead of "vi" then
[09:06] <holymoly> of course
[09:06] <tuxix> Spaceman3750: use gedit instead
[09:06] <holymoly> however
[09:06] <code_eater> dodo, hmm, u want to fullscr, what? terminal window, movie player.....?
[09:06] <Spaceman3750> gedit works nicely
[09:06] <varka> Spaceman3750: you can use "sudo nano" or "gksudo gedit" or "kdesu kate" instead
[09:06] <holymoly> now tha tyou enabled root you hosed the basic security principles around sudo
[09:06] <dodo> code_eater: image view called "eye of gnome"
[09:06] <Spaceman3750> It prompts for pass...  Ubuntu keeps resetting it...
[09:06] <Spaceman3750> How do I figure it out?
[09:06] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realized that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , any ideas?
[09:06] <holymoly> gksudo gedit
[09:07] <code_eater> dodo so option will be in program preferences
[09:07] <holymoly> Spaceman3750, i'll be honest, you go back to windows
[09:07] <holymoly> :)
[09:07] <Azul> can i bind a keyboard shortcut to xkill?
[09:07] <togr> holymoly, don't be so negative
[09:07] <Spaceman3750> My internet is spastic on Windows, I don't have much of a choice
[09:07] <Spaceman3750> Dude, I'm trying to learn
[09:07] <Spaceman3750> So shoot me
[09:07] <holymoly> naw i'm just buggin ya :)
[09:07] <nikin> Azul: whz do zou need that mutch xkill?
[09:07] <togr> Spaceman3750, you have your own password right?
[09:07] <Spaceman3750> Yes
[09:07] <varka> Spaceman3750: just type in the password you are login in with
[09:07] <holymoly> there are a couple of things to remember on ubuntu:
[09:08] <togr> and you can use it to log in to your system?
[09:08] <holymoly> a) don't enable root on ubuntu, there is no point its for security reasons
[09:08] <Spaceman3750> Yeah, is that the one I use?
[09:08] <togr> for sudo, yes
[09:08] <Spaceman3750> OK, thanks
[09:08] <sasukechaos> ah it closed for some reason, if somone started explaining please start again :-\
[09:08] <Spaceman3750> Thank you thank you thank you :)
[09:08] <Xsylotte> question: how to update clamav ? i need to be root or something ?
[09:08] <Azul> nikin: in case something hangs up.. sometimes it gets bad that i can't go to System Monitor
[09:08] <nikin> Spaceman3750: did you try to change your passwd with sudo? or without it?
[09:08] <holymoly> b) the first user you create during install is kind of like administrator in windows, its a restricted user with sudo priviledges
[09:09] <holymoly> if you are doing admin work you use that account and do things like gksudo gedit and type in that users pass to get sudo priviledges
[09:09] <holymoly> however what most ubuntu users aren't told
[09:09] <holymoly> is that you probably shouldn't be using that account regulrarly
[09:09] <ca1> how do you rip a video on a dvd to your computer to watch as a video there?
[09:09] <tripppy> im getting this error, i dont know whats wrong
[09:09] <tripppy> wine wow -opengl
[09:09] <tripppy> wine: could not load L"Z:\\media\\sdb4\\World of Warcraft\\wow.exe": Bad EXE format for
[09:10] <asc> code_eater: An easy way to get a root terminal is to do 'sudo bash'. There's also other ways.
[09:10] <holymoly> c) all other accounts by default are restricted further and have no sudo priviledges, you would want to actually create that type of account for your self as a regular user, and only use the first account for admin stuff
[09:10] <code_eater> asc i'm thinking about compiling, using ubuntu as host, for example binutils, gcc
[09:10] <holymoly> thats the basic idea anyway, but yeah screwing up your os is part of the learning curve
[09:11] <tofaffy_> I have a logitech trackballmouse...it keeps freezing up...anyone have any ideas?
[09:11] <togr> :-)
[09:11] <holymoly> if you have the right attitude for learning you will be fine :)
[09:11] <asc> code_eater: Don't know anything about that.
[09:11] <ryuk> i second holymoly words.. have done that many installs of oses through screw ups..
[09:11] <nikin> Azul: make a louncher for it on the taskbar, thats the best i know >P
[09:12] <code_eater> asc no problem, security, is security, also, 5 scripts with eof , chroot, and i have su, so is no bog problem ;)
[09:12] <code_eater> *big
[09:12] <Spaceman3750> OK, holymoly, thanks :).  I don't have a whole lot to lose, there's no files on Ubuntu, it's all on the Windows partition, so I should be fine
[09:12] <holymoly> cool
[09:12] <Spaceman3750> Worst case I have to reinstall, and that's amazingly simple
[09:12] <holymoly> ah yes, okay your not alergic to that
[09:13] <holymoly> :) cool
[09:13] <Xsylotte> question: how to update clamav ? i need to be root or something ? - anyone help pls ?
[09:13] <holymoly> Xsylotte, there is no root on ubuntu
[09:13] <holymoly> !sudo
[09:13] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[09:14] <Xsylotte> WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
[09:14] <sasukechaos> so yeah. My problem is that on my newly installed Tri-boot Macbook using rEFIt as a boot loader, after installing ubuntu last, when i try to use the boot loader to run windows, it starts running ubuntu. i have a choice of operating systems from there, but since the up and down arrows dont work, it chooses ubuntu. it then loads to the login screen of ubuntu.

[09:14] <Typwn> My NetWork Card was working fine, but then it stopped working. I've tried setting up a static IP to it, but it doesn't want to work with that.

When I try to edit the interface it says the interface isn't installed. Any ideas?

[09:21] <oxeimon2> ryuk: so it finally works...lol
[09:22] <ryuk> oxeimon2, lol.. was that with the live cd or the alternate??
[09:22] <oxeimon2> ryuk: I installed the old amd64 version again, and apparently this time it actually installed the bootloader
[09:22] <ryuk> oxeimon2, dont u just love computers..
[09:22] <oxeimon2> I think last time, it might have crashed in the middle, and since I was downstairs doing laundry, when I came back I assumed the installation was successful
[09:22] <oxeimon2> lol
[09:23] <ryuk> that would explain a lot..
[09:23] <oxeimon2> well, now XP at least boots
[09:23] <oxeimon2> hahahah

[09:23] <oxeimon2> I'm so happy
[09:23] <ryuk> it is about time..

[09:23] <oxeimon2> now it's 3:22am?
[09:23] <oxeimon2> lol
[09:23] <diamondcutter> So, my first question, I'll just throw out there, is how to change the top panel logo from the ubuntu logo to the Mac OS X logo.
[09:23] <ryuk> lol.. i remember my first linuc instals.. very similar
[09:23] <oxeimon2> now I just gotta check to see if ubuntu will boot.
[09:24] <asc> Spaceman3750: Join #asc, I can't send PMs
[09:24] <holymoly> diamondcutter, good question, unfotunately you can't without compiling that component from what i understand
[09:24] <Typwn> =)
[09:24] <Typwn> =(**
[09:24] <diamondcutter> Really. I know that with Edgy you could just change the icon in the hicolor icons directory.
[09:24] <Typwn> No one has any ideas?
[09:24] <diamondcutter> Has it changed that much with Feisty?
[09:25] <holymoly> diamondcutter, oh really? then i'm wrong *hmm*
[09:25] <holymoly> if that was so, i dont think it would have changed no
[09:25] <diamondcutter> Let me grab a link that described how to do it in Edgy.
[09:25] <tzafrir> hi, I'm trying to write a script that should hopefully work on Ubuntu as well as Debian, but don't have an Ubuntu system to check it right now
[09:26] <Madpilot> holymoly, diamondcutter - the Edgy method should still work - I think
[09:26] <diamondcutter> I gave it a shot with no result.
[09:26] <tzafrir> What do different Ubuntu versions have in /etc/debian_version ?
[09:26] <dissection> Hello, how do I install ncurses-devel pacakge?
[09:26] <diamondcutter> Perhaps I did it wrong? Could you walk me through it?
[09:26] <tuxix> tzafrir: what's the script?
[09:26] <oxeimon2> oh shit ubuntu doesn't work
[09:27] <tzafrir> tuxix, not something important
[09:27] <oxeimon2> Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[09:27] <Typwn> =\
[09:27] <diamondcutter> This is where I found it for Dapper (sorry, not Edgy) sudo cp apple.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png
[09:27] <tzafrir> The debian/ubuntu parts are quite trivial
[09:27] <diamondcutter> err, that was the command, this is the website http://www.taimila.com/ubuntuosx.php
[09:27] <tuxix> oxeimon2: i have to ask you : have you ever killed a penguin?
[09:28] <tzafrir> tuxix, what version of Ubuntu do you have and what do you have in that file?
[09:28] <dissection> How do I install the ncurses-devel  package? I don't know the correct name needed to install it using apt-get and didn't find anything in synaptic
[09:28] <tzafrir> dissection, you don't
[09:28] <Typwn> Does anyone know anything about NetWorking in Ubuntu?
[09:28] <tzafrir> you install libncurses-dev
[09:28] <diamondcutter> But I tried that method in its exactness and got no results. I've even deleted that file and still nothing seems to have changed.
[09:28] <tuxix> tzafrir: the last version feisty and which file?
[09:28] <ryuk> rofl..
[09:29] <oxeimon2> yeaahh
[09:29] <tzafrir>  /etc/debian_version
[09:29] <ryuk> put in the live cd again and do a cd check.. make sure it isnt fucked..
[09:29] <ryuk> or just go to bed..
[09:29] <tzafrir> What I generally need to know is if I should use kernel-headers or linux-headers
[09:29] <tuxix> oxeimon2:  let's face it, obviously the god of linux doesn't want you :)
[09:29] <oxeimon2> lol
[09:29] <oxeimon2> I've already checked the live cd
[09:30] <oxeimon2> it says its fine...
[09:30] <tzafrir> any recent Ubuntu uses linux-headers . I still want to worry about Debian Sarge (oldstable)
[09:30] <tuxix> sarge still exists? man i was using that 2 years ago
[09:30] <diamondcutter> While someone thinks my question over/Googles it (I've Googled quite a bit), I'm gonna go grab my laundry. brb.
[09:31] <Azul> tuxix: so if you abandon it, it should stop developing?
[09:32] <tuxix> Azul: of course not, but i'm just surprised that's all
[09:32] <ryuk> just leave the alternate to download over night and go to bed.. try again in the morn
[09:32] <Thanatos> Hi everyone!
[09:33] <Thanatos> Wow, this is the largest channel I've been in with nobody talking.
[09:33] <Thanatos> Incredible.
[09:33] <oxeimon2> man this success means I can't go to bed until I figure this out
[09:33] <oxeimon2> I just spent 8 hours without any improvement
[09:33] <oxeimon2> and finally I get somewhere
[09:33] <bruenig> !enter
[09:33] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:34] <oxeimon2> can't give up now
[09:34] <ryuk> i would be tempted to back all your stuff up 2moz.. and start all oses from scratch..
[09:34] <diamondcutter> Alright back.
[09:34] <tuxix> oxeimon2: that will pay !!
[09:34] <ingo_> hi all ! how can i get a sequence of an .ogg-file to .wav ???
[09:34] <tuxix> ingo > google that
[09:34] <ingo_> tuxix: google off!
[09:35] <tuxix> lol
[09:35] <tuxix> nice one :)
[09:35] <diamondcutter> Madpilot, any idea about what the problem might be why I can't get this to work in Feisty?
[09:35] <oxeimon2> well, windows has been untouched
[09:36] <oxeimon2> and the only problem was that grub didn't install
[09:36] <Madpilot> diamondcutter, not sure. Last time I messed with the logo in the top-left corner was even further back than Dapper...
[09:36] <adamh> In Feisty, I went to System -> Administration -> Language Support and enabled Swahili. Then I logged out, and GDM did not present Swahili as an option.
[09:36] <oxeimon2> What does this mean: "

[09:36] <oxeimon2> This worked for me as well. Thanks!
[09:37] <amidaniel> Gahh ... I'm unable to su :'(
[09:37] <Madpilot> oxeimon2, anything referring to Breezy is way out of date
[09:37] <adamh> Running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales", I see a whole bunch of "en"'s being generated, but no "sw"'s
[09:37] <adamh> Any ideas?
[09:37] <oxeimon2> oh
[09:37] <Madpilot> amidaniel, use sudo
[09:37] <amidaniel> Madpilot: What, it won't let me su root at all?
[09:38] <diamondcutter> Madpilot, is it possible that since Feisty ships with the Human theme by default that I need to modify the icons in the Human directory?
[09:38] <tuxix> amidaniel: sudo can easily replace root
[09:38] <Madpilot> amidaniel, why do you need to? 'sudo -i' instead, if you really need a root prompt
[09:38] <sasukechaos> I tried to fix grub (because since i i had a tri-boot that was booting ubuntu for both the ubuntu partition and the windows partition). so i followed the comands for "Using the desktop/liveCD while preserving windows bootloader" When i got to the bootloader screen it showed a mac option, 2 linux options (no disk inserted so its not somthing that simple) and a windows partition. and the windows partition is still booting ubu
[09:39] <Madpilot> diamondcutter, possibly, but I'm not sure. I know that changing from the Human icons doesn't change the topleft icon. (I can't stand Human, parts of it are unusable...)
[09:39] <amidaniel> Madpilot: ahh, okay .. I can live with sudo -i
[09:39] <pjesi> can someone help me shut of apport? it is consuming all of my resources
[09:39] <amidaniel> ( although I really prefer to be prompted for my password whenever I'm going to a root shell ... )
[09:39] <tuxix> y'a du franais aujourd'hui :)
[09:39] <diamondcutter> Does anyone use Avant window manager?
[09:39] <togr> amidaniel, and you aren't when using sudo?
[09:40] <perlmonkey> greetings
[09:40] <nuked_omen> amidaniel: me too
[09:40] <Madpilot> amidaniel, 'sudo -i' just asked for my user pw when I tried it...
[09:40] <nuked_omen> i haven't found a way to do it
[09:40] <amidaniel> togr: Well, with sudo it prompts you once per session and then lets you go
[09:40] <Madpilot> amidaniel, once every 10 or 15 minutes, actually
[09:40] <oxeimon2> ok maybe I can give up
[09:40] <togr> amidaniel, there is a timeout
[09:40] <oxeimon2> lol
[09:40] <oxeimon2> anyhow
[09:40] <amidaniel> Ah, well that's good :)
[09:40] <oxeimon2> ryuk: thank you so much for your help
[09:40] <nuked_omen> it prompts you every 15 minutes
[09:41] <grub0> hello every1
[09:41] <tzafrir> cat /etc/debian_version , anybody?
[09:41] <oxeimon2> fuck you grub
[09:41] <ryuk> kk no probs..
[09:41] <perlmonkey> is 46 a good price for 320GB hdd?
[09:41] <oxeimon2> I hate you
[09:41] <Madpilot> amidaniel, and if you're feeling mildly paranoid, "sudo -k" makes it forget your pw
[09:41] <togr> amidaniel, if you want it shorter, that's doable
[09:41] <oxeimon2> I HATEEE YOUUUU
[09:41] <grub0> my xp installation override GRUB and now i cant boot into linux! wht should i do
[09:41] <Madpilot> tzafrir, 4.0
[09:41] <oxeimon2> grub0(no offense)
[09:41] <oxeimon2> anyhow, gnight guys
[09:41] <tzafrir> Madpilot, thanks
[09:41] <nuked_omen> grub0: boot from a linux cd and reconfigure grub
[09:41] <tuxix> oxeimon2: have you tried the "alternate" cd install?
[09:41] <nuked_omen> !grub
[09:41] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:41] <perlmonkey> hi
[09:42] <oxeimon2> 9 hours of hacking with linux, and I'm finally back to where I started
[09:42] <Madpilot> tzafrir, that's from Feisty, btw
[09:42] <grub0> nuked_omen ok ill boot but how do i reconfigure it! am a newbie..
[09:42] <oxeimon2> persistence ftw
[09:42] <perlmonkey> oxeimon2 :(
[09:42] <nuked_omen> grub0: read what ubotu said
[09:42] <amidaniel> Alright, where'd you guys bury dhcp?
[09:42] <grub0> yes  i am thanks
[09:42] <tuxix> oxeimon2: you can't give up now, it's too late
[09:42] <rolfen> oxeimon2: sorry, what is your problem? :)
[09:43] <oxeimon2> I hate you too tuxix
[09:43] <perlmonkey> hi rolfen
[09:43] <sasukechaos> nuked_omen: what if i have the reverse problem? that installing ubuntu screwed up booting windows?
[09:43] <tuxix> why because i told you about the alternate install cd? :)
[09:43] <Madpilot> amidaniel, out back, with the rest of the bodies?
[09:43] <oxeimon2> rolfen: Kernel panic:
[09:43] <adamh> Aargh. Why can I not select Swahili as a language in Ubuntu? What is the point of those Swahili language packages if they don't give Swahili support?
[09:43] <oxeimon2> Kernel panic: not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)
[09:44] <nuked_omen> sasukechaos: installing ubuntu usually doesn't screw up windows booting, it just adds it to the grub list when you boot
[09:44] <oxeimon2> Hmmm
[09:44] <oxeimon2> actually
[09:44] <oxeimon2> just before that line
[09:44] <oxeimon2> it says:
[09:44] <Madpilot> ubotu, enter | oxeimon2
[09:44] <ubotu> oxeimon2: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:44] <oxeimon2> "VFS: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block(0,0)
[09:44] <oxeimon2> Please append a correct "root=" boot option
[09:44] <rolfen> oxeimon2: i had the same message when i recompiled my kernel... turned out i hadnt included the proper IDE drivers (and not as modules!)
[09:44] <tzafrir> oxeimon2, I'm not sure how grub is set on ubuntu, but on my home system I set it the default to be "saved"
[09:44] <rolfen> oxeimon2: did u recompile your kernel?
[09:45] <oxeimon2> umm
[09:45] <Hobbsee> Madpilot: you're not supposed to say where the body stash is!
[09:45] <oxeimon2> not that I know of
[09:45] <perlmonkey> hehe being told how to use the Enter key, that's classic
[09:45] <sasukechaos> nuked_omen: well that would be fine, but i cannot use the up or down arrows duing my few seconds of choice. it wont recognize a single keystroek
[09:45] <oxeimon2> how do I fix it?
[09:45] <rolfen> oxeimon2: this is a pretty low level error it happens very early in the boot process, right?
[09:45] <Madpilot> perlmonkey, some people need a reminder. Some people seem to need more than one...
[09:45] <perlmonkey> :D
[09:45] <oxeimon2> well yes
[09:45] <oxeimon2> after a few pages of diagnostic output
[09:45] <oxeimon2> but no graphics have popped up yet
[09:46] <diamondcutter> Looks like the distributor-logo.png from the hicolor directory actually just points to start-here.png. Doing a locate on that, I found that it pointed to my OSX icon directory..
[09:46] <oxeimon2> also, before VFS: Cannot open root device...
[09:46] <Montaro> I think oxeimon2 has specified his root device wrong. like it said, when grub loads, edit the command and add the correct root= line
[09:46] <nuked_omen> sasukechaos: weird, are you sure your keyboard is ok?
[09:46] <oxeimon2> it says "drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device(rtc0)"
[09:46] <diamondcutter> Still, when the icon existed, it didn't work anyways.
[09:46] <oxeimon2> how do I do that?
[09:46] <rolfen> yeah could also be something wrong with grub.conf
[09:47] <oxeimon2> should I boot up the livecd and edit grub.conf?
[09:47] <Montaro> when grub is loading, it will let you edit the command it uses to start, just add root=
[09:47] <Montaro> and then your root device :P
[09:47] <sasukechaos> nuked_omen: well, it works when i boot from the liveCD and when im actualy using ubuntu. (like now ;-)). Its a macbook, and the keys are on it? i dont think that would be a problem?
[09:48] <stephen> Is it possible to record from multiple sound cards simultaneously and if so does someone have a link that would help me get started?
[09:48] <dissection> Hello. I just installed 0.8.11 (I had the 0.8.10 that I installed through apt-get, in unbuntu before this).. So now my /script command does not work. What do I do?
[09:48] <dissection> irssi
[09:48] <oxeimon2> ok
[09:48] <oxeimon2> so for one of the commands, it says "root (hd0,1)"
[09:48] <Thanatos> Should I get a bigger HD? (My current one's 20GB)
[09:48] <oxeimon2> should I change that to "root= (hd0,1)"?
[09:48] <Montaro> no
[09:48] <rolfen> oxeimon2: nooo
[09:49] <Montaro> nooooonononono
[09:49] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: depends
[09:49] <Montaro> :P
[09:49] <rolfen> oxeimon2: it's on the next line
[09:49] <oxeimon2> oh wait
[09:49] <oxeimon2> it's working
[09:49] <oxeimon2> *I think*
[09:49] <Thanatos> Well I'm intending to dual boot XP and Ubuntu, so...what. 10 GB per OS?
[09:49] <oxeimon2> omgomgomgomgomgomg it booted
[09:49] <rolfen> oxeimon2: :-o
[09:49] <oxeimon2> how do I do that every time?
[09:50] <rolfen> oxeimon2: what did u do?
[09:50] <nuked_omen> sasukechaos: is it a USB, or a wireless keyboard?
[09:50] <nuked_omen> or a regular ps2?
[09:50] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: sounds reasonable, but don't start downloading stuff or installing mythtv ;-)
[09:50] <Thanatos> Don't start downloading stuff?
[09:50] <sasukechaos> nuked_omen: its a laptop, so keys are built in.
[09:50] <Thanatos> Download stuff is all I do on this PC -.-
[09:50] <oxeimon2> I changed the command "root (hd0,1)" to "root= (hd0,1)"
[09:50] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: maybe you need a bigger hdd then
[09:50] <diamondcutter> Alright, well here's something maybe more people can help with.
[09:50] <nuked_omen> i see
[09:50] <rolfen> :-o
[09:50] <perlmonkey> rolfen: hi
[09:51] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: is it possible to install Ubuntu onto an external HD?
[09:51] <diamondcutter> The built-in compositor for Ubuntu, should I get beryl or compiz, or just leave it alone? I'm on a not-so-powerful laptop.
[09:51] <rolfen> perlmonkey: hello :)
[09:51] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: sure
[09:51] <perlmonkey> rolfen: hows things in the middle east?
[09:51] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: wait scratch that. Then I'd need to mess with the boot priorities and that's just no fun if I need to boot XP before Ubuntu.
[09:51] <perlmonkey> true
[09:52] <nuked_omen> sasukechaos: i don't seem to figure out the cause.. sorry
[09:52] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: laptop?
[09:52] <nuked_omen> can't*
[09:52] <rolfen> perlmonkey: well pretty calm here actually :-)
[09:52] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: A desktop I managed to grab from my school. They were throwing it out anyway. Turns out the HD was totally scrap metal, so I put in a 20GB.
[09:52] <perlmonkey> rolfen: cool I'm pleased to hear it
[09:53] <sasukechaos> nuked_omen: meh, thanks, i'll keep searching the community docs
[09:53] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: Eh, I'll just search on newegg for a good-sized internal.
[09:53] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: that would be ok, why not just use the 20GB as your main drive for the OS's and then stick in a 2nd bigger hdd for your /home if you need to
[09:54] <rolfen> perlmonkey: yeah rather routine... life as usuall (a bit boring to say)... no bombs or such crap for some time now, so people are going out again... seems they caught some of the criminals, maybe that's why
[09:54] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: /home?
[09:54] <perlmonkey> I would personally divide that 20GB up like 70/30 in favour of windows
[09:54] <nomi1> how do i minimise the panel at the bottom of xfce (xubuntu?)
[09:54] <holymoly> rolfen, say what?
[09:54] <holymoly> you are in what country?
[09:54] <nomi1> the panel with buttons on it at the bottom of the screen
[09:54] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: ya your /home folder for Ubuntu
[09:55] <perlmonkey> user space
[09:55] <rolfen> holymoly: beirut, lebanon :-)
[09:55] <nomi1> ???
[09:55] <nomi1> ??
[09:55] <holymoly> rolfen, wow!
[09:55] <nomi1> this is riduclous can't use stuff because of the panel with the bin on it and all the buttons in xfce
[09:55] <rolfen> yeah we got people from all around the world here...
[09:55] <togr> not to say "holy moly!"
[09:55] <nomi1> nobody knows?
[09:56] <jurp5> hello
[09:56] <holymoly> lol sure, beirut is probably under represented tho
[09:56] <holymoly> coolness
[09:56] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: The 7/3 leaves 6 GB for Ubuntu. Is that enough? (I know it's 3GB, but what about other software?)
[09:56] <jurp5> having problems installing updates in ubuntu gutsy
[09:56] <perlmonkey> Windows as an OS needs a lot more swap/hdd space to grow in, than Linux does
[09:56] <jurp5> :(
[09:56] <jurp5> http://pastebin.com/m74e8aee3
[09:56] <gordonjcp> nomi1: nobody knows what?
[09:56] <oxeimon2> do you guys know what eagle-usb-utils is?
[09:56] <rolfen> holymoly: yeah.. it's not that big of a country either
[09:56] <nomi1> the panel with buttons on it on the bttom of screen how to get rid
[09:56] <oxeimon2> and how I should configure those?
[09:56] <Frogzoo> if I edit /etc/event.d/tty1  what do I kill -HUP to get the file reread ?
[09:57] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: well it depends what you are planning to install, but I run Ubuntu very well in 3GB partition on my laptop
[09:57] <nomi1> the panel like the windows thingy
[09:57] <nomi1> programs running on it
[09:57] <nomi1> i want rid
[09:57] <nomi1> covers windows
[09:57] <nomi1> wtf?
[09:57] <nomi1> ?
[09:57] <nomi1> nobody knows this?
[09:57] <jurp5> having problems installing updates in ubuntu gutsy
[09:57] <gordonjcp> there's an option in the settings to keep it on top
[09:57] <gordonjcp> turn it off
[09:57] <rolfen> well i'm the proud embassador then :-)
[09:57] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: you could be a bit more generous, but I would definitely give more space to Windows if you can, as thats where you will likely need it most
[09:57] <jurp5> http://pastebin.com/m74e8aee3
[09:57] <nomi1> i really don't want that
[09:57] <nomi1> ok ty
[09:57] <nomi1> ty v much
[09:57] <nomi1> VIVA UBUNTU!!
[09:58] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: Thanks a bunch! I'll give the 7/3 split a try.
[09:58] <perlmonkey> :)
[09:58] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: BTW what do you use Ubuntu for?
[09:58] <gordonjcp> nuked_omen: there may be an option to autohide it
[09:58] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: I run it on server, workstation and laptop, and also on a Mythtv media center for recording TV shows and streaming video on my LAN
[10:00] <perlmonkey> Ubuntu rox
[10:00] <BadRobot> hi there.Does anyone knows how to install themes on XMMS?
[10:00] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: Ah. I'm planning on getting started on Ubuntu for now (I'm a junior in HS), until I hit college, where I will make the switch to using Linux as my main OS (maybe Slackware by then)
[10:00] <perlmonkey> I used Debian for like 8-9 years, for server and workstations, but I found Ubuntu is much easier to handle and work with for setting up more complicated stuff, like NFS, and Mythtv
[10:01] <oxeimon3> sooo
[10:01] <oxeimon3> how do I set up the internet on ubuntu?
[10:01] <oxeimon3> >.>
[10:01] <Thanatos> Well first off, it's not a big truck.
[10:01] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Haha .. same problem I'm having right now :D
[10:01] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: Ubuntu is a good choice then for a start out, most stuff works out of the box and hardware is very well supported compared to other distros
[10:01] <Flannel> oxeimon3: That's a very vague question.  What sort of internet?
[10:01] <BadRobot> I use Ubuntustudio,Fedora 7,DreamLinux 2.2 and Linux Mint 3
[10:01] <oxeimon3> well
[10:01] <oxeimon3> I have a dsl ethernet connection
[10:01] <oxeimon3> I just installed ubuntu
[10:02] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: That's good, 'cause I'm running on some VERY old hardware. Which I also happen to know nothing about (I'm more into software than hardware). For instance: How do I tell if my HD is IDE or (S)ATA?
[10:02] <KI4IKL> What are some good media players for ubuntu that will make and store playlists, sorta like WINDOWS Media Player
[10:03] <BadRobot> I think you should have installed Ubuntu with the internet connection plugged to your desktop/laptop,so Ubuntu would have installed and set ypur internt automatically
[10:03] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realized that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , any ideas? (dual PIII 899 Mhz, 1 GB RAM, i840 chipset)
[10:03] <oxeimon3> I just need to know how to set up the ineternet
[10:03] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: linux should detect it, check your dmesg output
[10:03] <amidaniel> Lmao .. I pull the plug out of the computer, restart the network man and after a couple minutes it pops up and informs me that I've connected to the wired network :)
[10:04] <asc__> how do you comment a block of code in python or perl?
[10:04] <perlmonkey> sheesh I think we had a powercut during the night
[10:04] <asc__> and/or, actually
[10:04] <asc__> or just and
[10:04] <Flannel> asc__: http://omor.com/perl/comment_out.html
[10:05] <BadRobot> Amarok(KDE),Exaile(GNOME)
[10:05] <asc__> thanks
[10:05] <amidaniel> Lol .. and now everybody's happy :D bizarre
[10:05] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: Mind if I PM you? I feel like Frogger in this flow of text.
[10:05] <perlmonkey> sure
[10:05] <p99> IS this the place to ask for help with configuration problems?
[10:06] <amidaniel> So alright, that wasn't too difficult -- not too pleased with my voodoo solution though :)
[10:06] <Madpilot> p99, yes
[10:06] <rolfen> KI4IKL: I think most people will recommend Amarok... and I use Rhythmbox
[10:07] <oxeimon3> wait, so amidaneil how'd you get it working?
[10:07] <p99> Ok well. With my wifi card It will only work if I install Breezy. Dapper detects the card and all that and says it's connected but it seems like it's lying.
[10:07] <oxeimon3> I just installed ubuntu
[10:07] <oxeimon3> and I've plugged in my connection multiple times
[10:07] <p99> anyways I just installed breezy back on
[10:07] <Flannel> !dsl | oxeimon3
[10:07] <ubotu> oxeimon3: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[10:07] <perlmonkey> lies and more lies from Dapper
[10:07] <Nuktar> Gutsy sucks
[10:08] <p99> and I installed the base system and then gdm then ubuntu-desktop
[10:08] <Madpilot> p99, have you tried a more recent version of Ubuntu? Even Dapper is two versions old by now, and Breezy doesn't have support anymore...
[10:08] <p99> Yes I know that. But my laptop is crap
[10:09] <amidaniel> Alright .. now let's have a peek at this here package manager ...
[10:09] <pppZero_> what can i use to make a video of my desktop in action?
[10:09] <perlmonkey> p99: what you got
[10:10] <amidaniel> Oh wow you guys got ff2 as the default :) The SuSE folks still won't even move that over from the development repos
[10:10] <p99> So my problem I face is not the lack of updates. I just use it an hour or 2 a day. I'm just going to use it to learn php.
[10:10] <Madpilot> p99, Ubuntu keeps getting lighter & faster, so an older machine should run the newest release just fine, if it ran an older one...
[10:10] <p99> P2, 128mb ram, 6 gig hdd
[10:10] <p99> IT took a half hour just to boot into the live version of dapper to install
[10:10] <perlmonkey> p99: are you running xfce4?
[10:10] <perlmonkey> pheew
[10:11] <yigal> why aren't there ladies
[10:11] <yigal> i mean really
[10:11] <p99> No just standard gnome
[10:11] <yigal> no i mean standard ladies
[10:11] <Madpilot> p99, use the Alternate install CD - and try Xubuntu, it's a good bit lighter than Ubuntu
[10:11] <perlmonkey> p99: switch to xfce4, things will run MUCH quicker
[10:11] <JimQode_> p99, try xubuntu. it will work like a charm
[10:11] <Anubis> yidal its irc there are no ladies
[10:11] <Madpilot> yigal, this isn't a social chat channel...
[10:11] <yigal> no ladies
[10:11] <perlmonkey> p99: I run a P3-600/256 and even I find Gnome slow on this laptop
[10:11] <p99> Alright I will do that. I've used xfce and I don't care for it much
[10:12] <yigal> is that a consequence of testorpone
[10:12] <nikin> pppZero_: install istanbul
[10:12] <p99> I used to use IceWM. I love it
[10:12] <yigal> excuse me testoserone
[10:12] <Meglo> I'm manually assigning root and /home with swap on my drive(hdd)'s partition table I editing with gparted. Everything is on (hdd) but the installer wants to install the bootloader on (hd0) but thats not the same disk.... and I don't have a real disk labled that in /dev
[10:12] <Ward> I'm using ubuntu on my laptop with an external monitor - My external monitor is placed right of my normal laptop screen. It all works perfectly - except of 1 thing : the mouse pointer is 1 big squire instead of a pointer - where can I change that?
[10:12] <pppZero_> nikin: ty :)
[10:12] <Meglo> Do I just change it to (hdd)?
[10:12] <lixus> hi, when I run ooffice on dapper I get this errors, anybody an idea how to fix that ?:
[10:12] <lixus> /usr/lib/openoffice/program/javaldx: relocation error: /usr/lib/libstlport_gcc.so.4.6: symbol logl, version GLIBCXX_3.4 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference
[10:12] <lixus> /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: relocation error: /usr/lib/libstlport_gcc.so.4.6: symbol logl, version GLIBCXX_3.4 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference
[10:12] <perlmonkey> wtf
[10:13] <yigal> no woman in her right mind would care about this
[10:13] <amidaniel_> Woohoo .. and now talking to you from ubuntu :)
[10:13] <yigal> really
[10:13] <JimQode_> amidaniel, have fun ;)
[10:13] <perlmonkey> hehe
[10:13] <bliss123> what is the command to use kommander in kde as root?
[10:14] <SlimeyPete> kdesu kommander?
[10:14] <amidaniel_> JimQode_: Thanks, I already am :)
[10:14] <yigal> i never realized
[10:14] <SlimeyPete> or something similar
[10:14] <Madpilot> yigal, #ubuntu-offtopic if you just want to chat, please
[10:14] <yigal> no this deserves ubuntu
[10:14] <astro76> Meglo, hard drives are labeled differently in grub, hd0 is first hard drive in grub, do you only have one drive?
[10:14] <bliss123> SlimeyPete: thanks
[10:14] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: PMed. Although I could ask the questions in #ubuntu, I suppose.
[10:14] <yigal> are there any women here?
[10:14] <BadRobot> if there is .they are hading
[10:15] <nikin> Meglo> hd0 is mostly hda or sda
[10:15] <BadRobot> hiding
[10:15] <yigal> :)
[10:15] <perlmonkey> Thanatos: i didnt see any msg from you, are you registered?
[10:15] <BadRobot> womens are shy
[10:15] <p99> Well I'm just having a buffer issue. It may be that I need to reboot since I just installed X. But I was ancious to use it. I have that ugly buffered mode look where about 1.5 inches around my monitor is black.
[10:15] <yigal> that is what I thought. I have 2 bottles of wine in me :)
[10:15] <Joe_x86> ok, let's try this one more time...
[10:15] <Thanatos> perlmonkey: Good point. I'm not.
[10:15] <Madpilot> yigal, there are a number of women active in Ubuntu. Even on IRC. However, non-support chat needs to be on -offtopic, not here...
[10:15] <Anubis> ha women arnt shy
[10:16] <Meglo> astro76: I have, what I consider(heh), a complex setup, my drive lables were reassigned after I installed another PATA controller card with an extra 160(I'm not doing anything with it, irrevelent), and another 60 on the same IDE Bus as my system drive I want to install ubuntu on, which is 40gb.
[10:16] <Anubis> girls are shy
[10:16] <Meglo> I have 3 primary partitions with a fourth logical, and inside that I have swap and what I want to be /home
[10:16] <BadRobot> their are my wide uses Linux Mint 3 and when she needs help,she asks me to ask on IRC about her isssues with her distro
[10:17] <BadRobot> so,who is female in here then?
[10:17] <Joe_x86> Anybody know how I get my Laptop Processor Speed back to normal? <Ubuntu 2.04, 2.6.20-16, KDE 3.5.6> Intel Core Duo T2250
[10:17] <Meglo> But, because grub assigns stuff differently I might be OK, hd0 would be master on IDE1?
[10:17] <BadRobot> I mean MY WIFE
[10:17] <yigal> Joe_x86: are you using powernowd?
[10:17] <BadRobot> sorry bad spelled
[10:17] <astro76> Meglo, exactly
[10:17] <Joe_x86> yigal: Not that I know of...
[10:18] <yigal> Joe_x86: what kind of processor x86?
[10:18] <nuked_omen> BadRobot: why does anyone who can help her be of the same gender?
[10:18] <nikin> Meglo: that depends on your BIOS , but most likely yes
[10:18] <bliss123> SlimyPete: command kommander and with Kommander not found
[10:18] <Joe_x86> Both cores R at 800Mhz.... Supposed to be 1.73 per core
[10:18] <Meglo> astro76: how do I foolproof check what drive the installer/grub thinks it will install (hd0) /boot to?
[10:18] <Joe_x86> x86 yes, yigal
[10:19] <SlimeyPete> bliss123: oh... well, you'll need to find the command to run kommander and then prepend it with "kdesu". The kdesu bit runs things as sudo (root)
[10:19] <Meglo> I've had some seriously odd problems when booting from the opposite disk made it load the OS, when it didn't have anything to load from on it
[10:19] <p99> I am going to reboot and if my problem with X persists i'll come back
[10:19] <BadRobot> I don'tknow .I guess gals are more open to other gals
[10:19] <Meglo> I think its because of my jumpers, but its such a tight fit I can't really look at the pin setups
[10:19] <yigal> ok then, you are using smp kernel by default so what exactly is the problem?
[10:20] <bliss123> SlimyPete: yes i have looked at help and manual but alas no joy
[10:20] <BadRobot> can anyone help me on installing a skin to my XMMS?
[10:21] <Joe_x86> Yigal: All of the SysInfo apps I use are telling me that my Lappy is running at 800Mhz/core and I'm getting some sluggish response times in apps
[10:21] <Meglo> #xmms, BadRobot
[10:21] <BadRobot> Does anyone knows how to install skins to XMMS?
[10:21] <BadRobot> thx
[10:21] <bliss123> is there a channel for kde?
[10:21] <Meglo> #kde
[10:21] <nikin> Meglo: /boot isnt restricted to hd`
[10:21] <nikin> hd0
[10:21] <Frogzoo> BadRobot: audacious > xmms
[10:21] <Madpilot> bliss123, #kubuntu
[10:22] <SlimeyPete> bliss123: #kde ;) or #kubuntu
[10:22] <BadRobot> ok thx
[10:22] <Meglo> astro76: what do you mean? I don't want it making a /boot partition on the wrong drive, or am I not understanding correctly?
[10:22] <nikin> Meglo: u are wrong it just writes the MBR there
[10:23] <bliss123> Madpilot: thanks
[10:23] <oxeimon3> so, you know how in windows XP, there's such a thing as a Network Connections folder, where all your connections are displayed right?
[10:23] <oxeimon3> ie, Ethernet, Wireless...etc
[10:23] <samakaleikum> j/ pas_juozuka
[10:23] <bliss123> Madpilot: good to hear that you are here
[10:23] <oxeimon3> how do you create a new network connection on ubuntu?
[10:23] <samakaleikum> j pas_juozuka
[10:24] <Meglo> nikin: Well, I'll just go through with it. I'm not completely sure why it would be ok to allow the MBR/boot to be written on a completely seperate disks than the system partitions
[10:24] <samakaleikum> j #pa1s_juozuka
[10:24] <Tr0gd0r> say /j samakaleikum
[10:25] <bliss123> Frogzoo: how are things downunder
[10:25] <nikin> Meglo: if zou have no windows on that HD then no problems] 
[10:25] <Frogzoo> bliss123: good good
[10:26] <Frogzoo> anyone know a nice analogue clock with transparent frame ??
[10:26] <Meglo> nikin: thanks, but no windows.
[10:26] <unagi> is there a program for linux that converts .mov to an image sequence
[10:26] <ThanatosDrive> unagi: you mean .gif?
[10:26] <p99> Rebooting did not help. would a black buffer like this be controlled from xorg.conf?
[10:26] <nikin> Meglo: you can anytime reinstall grub on the other hd to, so that removing the one witch is now hd0 will couse no problems
[10:27] <unagi> no....i mean .mov to .tiff
[10:27] <SlimeyPete> unagi: transcode or mencoder might do it, but I'm not sure exactly how.
[10:27] <unagi> !transcode

[10:30] <megatill> Hit3k, my ubuntu 7.04 needs 3min to start uo, is this normaly?
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> I have a script in /etc/rc5.d
[10:30] <Frogzoo> !java | Timon
[10:30] <ubotu> Timon: 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
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> called S99internetscript
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> that isn't running on startup
[10:30] <Timon> ok thanks
[10:30] <p99> oh I see I did no know.
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> it has execute permission
[10:30] <yalu_> hello. is there something that can mimic the "offline files" functionality from Windows?
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> for root
[10:30] <megatill> amd athlon xp 2800+, 512mb ram, 160gb
[10:30] <floriakir> how can i skip the hard drive check that ubuntu performs every 30th time i boot my comp/mount the hard drive?
[10:30] <Frogzoo> Hail_Spacecake: rc2 is the default runlevel
[10:30] <Hail_Spacecake> Frogzoo: really? that's odd
[10:31] <Hail_Spacecake> I thought 5 was
[10:31] <Frogzoo> Hail_Spacecake: slight difference from redhat :)
[10:31] <Hail_Spacecake> ah, so it's a debian thing?
[10:31] <Frogzoo> Hail_Spacecake: yes
[10:31] <Hail_Spacecake> it's like a different dialect of linux :)
[10:31] <Hail_Spacecake> ah well, thanks
[10:31] <Zimnick|Away> so, I'd like to start off by saying I'm an idiot, and tonight is my first time using ubuntu, that being said, I need some help lol
[10:31] <bluebanana> i installed realplay 10 from real.com/linux just now. But firefox can't still play files.plus, when i go to a real.com official link, i.e. http://www.film.com/movies/mediaplayback/15148932, it says it can't find  realplay in system path. What's wrong?
[10:31] <Hail_Spacecake> while I'm on the subject
[10:32] <ziroday> Zimnick|Away: love to help you but dont know whats wrong?
[10:32] <p99> nikin: Try system >> preferances >> keyboard >> layout
[10:32] <floriakir> zimnick, what's the matter?
[10:32] <Layer8> hi guys
[10:32] <Hail_Spacecake> is the S## syntax for the filenames important?
[10:32] <oxeimon3> so when I boot up my computer and grub loads, I get the following options: "Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-15-generic", or "Ubuntu 7.04 (7.04) (on /dev/sda3)"
[10:32] <Layer8> I have problems with my network manager under feisty
[10:32] <oxeimon3> does anyone know what that means?
[10:32] <oxeimon3> and what the difference is?
[10:32] <floriakir> any1, how can i skip the hard drive check that ubuntu performs every 30th time i boot my comp/mount the hard drive?
[10:32] <bluebanana> firefox can't play the embedded realplay files. firefox think I still need to install realplay, when in fact, I've already done so. help, please
[10:32] <Zimnick|Away> I enabled desktop effects on accident (was looking at the menu, didnt mean to click the checkmark) and now the entire screen is white :)
[10:32] <Zimnick|Away> is it possible to disable them via command?
[10:32] <Zimnick|Away> and if so, how :p
[10:32] <SlimeyPete> floriakir: edit /etc/fstab and put a 0 in the last column for your boot disk
[10:33] <floriakir> thanx
[10:33] <Layer8> when trying to show the connection infos i get an error. nw manager tells that a "glade file" is missing?! wtf?!
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> floriakir: that will prevent the file system check from running automatically
[10:33] <ilu> i need some help here. i started my computer today and all icons and everything is large as hell even though i had 1200*1000 or something when i closed my computer yeasterday and now its is like 600*400 and i dont seem to be able to change it.....

[10:33] <ilu> plz priv msg me if you want to help
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> I really don't understand why ubuntu doesn't default to no auto-fsck, considering ext3 is the default filesystem
[10:34] <SlimeyPete> floriakir: you can run it from a livecd if you want
[10:34] <p99> How do you make X use all of your monitor? Mine does not use 1.5 inches around the edges
[10:34] <SlimeyPete> floriakir: or you can just turn it back on in fstab, temporarily
[10:34] <user1_> hi I would like to install cairo 1.4.10 (latest version) to see if they fixed a bug. what is the recommended procedure on ubuntu? it seems there are no ubuntu or .deb packages
[10:34] <asc> megatill: No, that's not normal. No idea how to fix it though.
[10:34] <floriakir> hmm, that sucks, but thx anyway
[10:34] <nikin> p99: ty this one i didnt know :D
[10:35] <megatill> hm asc
[10:35] <nikin> i got mz hands on a Fujitsu siemens Celsius 650 workstation and i booted the live CD... then i realized that cpuinfo just tels me about one CPU, but i have 2 , any ideas? (dual PIII 899 Mhz, 1 GB RAM, i840 chipset)
[10:35] <p99> no proplem nikin
[10:35] <SlimeyPete> floriakir: there are probably ways to do it without the livecd but I've not done it in about eighteen months so I can't remember
[10:36] <Layer-8> hi guys
[10:36] <ilu> why when i start my ubuntu today is the screen size 640*480? and  why when i try to change it is there no other option than that size?
[10:36] <Zimnick|Away> anyone? please? don't want to reinstall lol
[10:37] <p99> ilu I have a problem like yours
[10:37] <Layer8> I have problems with my network manager under feisty
[10:37] <Layer8> when trying to show the connection infos i get an error. nw manager tells that a "glade file" is missing?! wtf?!
[10:37] <megatill> asc how long need your ubuntu to start up?
 yeah? ok because i got this just now when i started my computer
[10:37] <asc> ilu: My suggestion would be to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and set it up that way. But I don't know what caused that problem.
[10:37] <ThanatosDrive> Can someone with knowledge of Compiz Fusion/Beryl PM me?
[10:37] <nikin> p99: maybe yet another buggy xserver-xorg like 6 months ago, but that was worse
[10:37] <p99> ilu did you do any updates?
[10:37] <asc> megatill: I think 50 seconds to TTY. Maybe add ten for login.
[10:37] <p99> well I installed it from disk
[10:38] <ilu> p99 i did some stuff yeasterday but it all seem to have gone fine
[10:38] <p99> and it has always worked fine before
[10:38] <floriakir> zimnick, try "compiz --help" or just uninstall compiz, cos i think the desktop effects are done by compiz...
[10:38] <ziroday> ThanatosDrive: no you can either go to #ubuntu-effects #beryl or #opencompositing or ask here for help
[10:38] <nikin> p99: reconfiguring y server didnt help?
[10:38] <nikin> x server
[10:38] <p99> I do not know how
[10:38] <megatill> wich details your pc have? asc (sorry for my englsih :))
[10:38] <asc> megatill: It depends a little on how much stuff you have installed, but 3 minutes is very long.
[10:39] <asc> megatill: Pentium 4 2.6 GHZ. Celeron.
[10:39] <nikin> p99: get to a tty(press CTRL+ALT+F1), login
[10:39] <ilu> asc hold on mate i am going to try to reconfigure it...
[10:39] <megatill> hm asc i have amd athlon xp 2800+
[10:39] <Madpilot> Joe_x86, be polite.
[10:39] <p99> yes I know how to do that.
[10:39] <nikin> then stop the display manager /this will kill all x aps runing (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop)
[10:40] <user1_> how do I install the required -dev libraries to compile a package? I have to compile cairo
[10:40] <Joe_x86> Madpilot: I am reffering to CPU technology "powernow"
[10:40] <nikin> then run (sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg)
[10:40] <asc> megatill: Do you know the device you boot from? (/dev/[sd-something or hd-something)
[10:40] <oxeimon3> where is the grub config file?
[10:40] <Joe_x86> PowerNow controls CPU speed MAdPilot.... :)
[10:40] <Flannel> oxeimon3: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:40] <Fedman> does anyone knows why when I try to install nvidia-settings it wants to uninstall nvidia-glx
[10:41] <nikin> and setup everything it asks for
[10:41] <p99> ok, i'm making an instruction file for myself
[10:41] <oxeimon3> ah k
[10:41] <nikin> p99: do you have irssi installed?
[10:42] <nikin> or any other console IRC client?
[10:42] <megatill> asc no
[10:42] <asc> megatill: Actually, never mind. In a terminal, do 'df'. Then take the first 8 letters of the second line (/dev/hda or /dev/sda probably) and put them into 'sudo hdparm'. E.g., 'sudo hdparm /dev/sda'
[10:42] <oxeimon3> has anyone had this problem before: "VFS: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block(0,0), Please append a correct "root=" boot option, Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)"
[10:43] <eni> hey anyone has an amilo fujitsu siemens ? i cant make skype work, cos i cant find the mic driver or smth, but i can hear from the speakers if i enable the microphone in alsamixer, i can hear what i say !
[10:43] <rixxon> I am unable to connect to encrypted wifi networks (stuck at 28% progress in KNetworkManager) though I used to be able to connect before. Any ideas?
[10:43] <p99> I doubt it but I have a shell accout i'll hop on bitchX
[10:43] <asc> megatill: Then look for the line that reads "using_dma". It should be on.
[10:44] <megatill> yes it is asc
[10:44] <p99> Ok i'll be right back
[10:44] <nikin> kk
[10:44] <xy77> I have a strange networking problem on two feisty machines (a laptop and a desktop): I get the ip addresses by dhcp and that works fine. But after a while (5 min - 1 hour) the ip address is changed. Any ideas anyone?
[10:44] <eni> anybody had problems finding their microphone under SKYPE?
[10:44] <asc> megatill: Well now we know part of what the problem *isn't* :p
[10:45] <megatill> asc ? ^^
[10:45] <nikin> xy77: that thig depends on the DHCP server... mazbe your router ... zou should check the lease time there
[10:46] <unagi> is there a program for linux that converts .mov to an image sequence
[10:46] <perlmonkey> what time do you guys have
[10:46] <perlmonkey> I think my clock is slow
[10:46] <perlmonkey> gmt anyone?
[10:46] <user1_> 10.46AM
[10:46] <ilu> p99 did you figure out how to fix the issues?
[10:46] <p99> back, but I hope the text doesn't scroll out of veiw
[10:46] <user1_> UTC+1
[10:46] <perlmonkey> user1 thanks
[10:47] <nikin> !time
[10:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about time - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:47] <p99> nevermind on that last comment I made
[10:47] <user1_> +2 actually, due to the summer time thing
[10:47] <Myrtti> "Couldn't open /dev/audio! Device or resource busy." What can I do?
[10:47] <p99> ilu scroll up to what nikin was saying
[10:47] <hrishi> hi, could somebody tell me apt-get source list for fiesty?
 what was he saying?
[10:47] <asc> megatill: Do 'sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces'.
[10:47] <_deselby9_> hello
[10:47] <afk|p99> about reconfigureing X
[10:47] <Spik1> Problem while booting. On an intel macbook with triboot via rEFIt (OS X, Windows XP, Ubuntu). When i choose ubuntu, i am given another set of choices to choose from (Ubuntu, and windows xp) However, My arrow keys are not seeming to function untill it loads all the way. Any ideas?
[10:47] <nikin> p99: so you have now 2 tty -s one with an IRC client and one just logged in
[10:47] <afk|p99> brb
[10:48] <perlmonkey> we arent having much summer here in UK this year
[10:48] <megatill> ok asc
[10:48] <afk|p99> correct
[10:48] <perlmonkey> only rain and floods
[10:48] <_deselby9_> anyone could help me out with apache .. ProxyPass thing
[10:48] <afk|p99> wait no
[10:48] <afk|p99> h/o
[10:48] <_deselby9_> I'm running zope on dapper server box
[10:48] <xy77> nikin: it's our company network and all other clients work well.
[10:48] <asc> megatill: Try following these directions. It says it won't break the network, because network-manager is what actually runs networking these here days. http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2007/04/yesterdays-update-slow-boot.html
 do you know how to fix this stuff? i started ubuntu today and the screen size is huge and i dont seem to be able to change it in options?
[10:48] <perlmonkey> apache has its own channel #apache
[10:48] <asc> megatill: (and if it does break the network, just uncommend the interfaces you do have)
[10:48] <ilu> 640*480
[10:48] <asc> *uncomment
[10:48] <ilu> thats the size and i cannot change it
[10:49] <megatill> ok thanks asc i'll try it :)
[10:49] <ilu> i tried to install java yeasterday and that did not go so well...
[10:49] <ilu> is that the problem?
[10:49] <nikin> xy77: maybe you dont get registered somehow.. fix ip isnt an option?
[10:49] <xy77> Could someone please run $ ps ax | grep dhclient and tell me whether there are two (a dhclient and a dhclient3) processes or only one.
[10:49] <asc> megatill: Hope it actually helps at all. :p
[10:49] <nikin> p99: tell me if you are ready
[10:49] <megatill> :) asc
[10:49] <xy77> nikin: admin says no
[10:49] <unagi> is there a program for linux that converts .mov to an image sequence
[10:49] <astro76> xy77, both
[10:49] <xy77> unagi: check ffmpeg or maybe mencoder
[10:50] <afk|p99> ok only running cli now
[10:50] <unagi> !info ffmpeg
[10:50] <ubotu> ffmpeg: multimedia player, server and encoder. In component universe, is optional. Version 3:0.cvs20060823-3.1ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 176 kB, installed size 620 kB
[10:50] <afk|p99> should I run the reconfigure yet?
[10:50] <perlmonkey> xy77: just one
[10:50] <ilu> hello? anyone know wtf is going on here? my screen size is 640*480 and how do i change it?
[10:50] <nikin> xy77: i ran the command i have just one dhclient3 , i ame runing 6.06 tho
[10:50] <afk|p99> ilu be patient
[10:50] <megatill> asc resart :) see you
[10:51] <asc> 1s
[10:51] <perlmonkey> ilu: click on menu and settings
[10:51] <nikin> p99: first stop gdm
[10:51] <afk|p99> done
[10:51] <asc> megatill: Oh. When you're booting, if you hit 'esc' when it says grub is starting, select the default boot thing, press 'e' and remove the 'quiet splash' from the end of the line, then press 'b', it will give you a lot more information on boot, which might show you where it's slowing down.
[10:51] <nikin> ok the run reconfigure
 yeah and?
[10:51] <asc> megatill: And doing that won't change anything permanently. It just does it for one boot.
[10:51] <perlmonkey> ilu: display settings
[10:52] <crypto> frink__: Hi !
[10:52] <xy77> nikin: seems to happen only on 7.04
[10:52] <ingo_> hi! (how) can i set a system-sound for droping a file into trash?
[10:52] <megatill> okay asc see you
[10:52] <ilu>  <perlmonkey> in the settings for screen size i have no other options than 640*480... really strange... i can also only choose 50hz.... something has happend...
[10:52] <asc> mgatill: good luck
[10:52] <xy77> perlmonkey 7.04 or 6.06?
[10:52] <nikin> xy77: no idea i dont use 7. couse an other problem
[10:52] <crypto> frink__: Welcome to Ubuntu !
[10:52] <afk|p99> ok it is running. I have a neomagic video card so chould I just stick with vesa?
[10:52] <perlmonkey> ilu: sounds like your graphics card is not properly setup. you may need to reconfigure X
[10:52] <nikin> p99: if no beter then yes
[10:53] <frink__> perlmonkey: Try reconfiguring X with dpkg-reconfigure
[10:53] <perlmonkey> xy77: 7.04
[10:53] <ilu> perlmonkey ok... but is there a way just to go back to the settings i used to have because i am not good at reconfiguring x...
[10:53] <perlmonkey> ilu: open a shell and do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:53] <perlmonkey> ilu: yes
[10:54] <ingo_> how can i set a system-sound for droping a file into trash?
[10:54] <p99> And kb's for memory?
[10:54] <perlmonkey> ilu: if you go to your /etc/X11 directory, there should be a backup of your last working config
[10:54] <nikin> p99: it will ask for mouse and kezboard, but mostly the default values will be ok there
[10:54] <nikin> p99: leave that blan
[10:54] <nikin> k
[10:54] <p99> ok
 ok hold on one moment...
[10:54] <Zimnick|Away> anyone know how to disable desktop effects in 7.04 through the cli?
[10:55] <p99> kernal frame buffer? From it's description it appears to be trial and error
[10:55] <nikin> p99: i like to set it to yes
[10:55] <p99> okay
[10:56] <megatill> asc it needs 1min 50sec
[10:56] <megatill> ...
[10:56] <xy77> perlmonkey: did you update or did you install 7.04 from scratch?
[10:56] <perlmonkey> xy77: installed from scratch
[10:56] <Joseaa> Hello, I ws trying to reconfigure my xserver. Tried "/etc/init.d/gdm" stop and now I get text only screen with no command prompt. It is stuck on the statement "running local boot scripts(/etc/rc.local)"
[10:57] <Joseaa> Is there anyway to come out of it ?
[10:57] <nikin> p99: the modules will be ok just accept defaults
[10:57] <perlmonkey> joseaa: CTRL + C doesn't do it?
[10:57] <p99> Haha was just typing a question about that thanks
[10:57] <ingo_> how can i set a system-sound for droping a file into trash?
[10:57] <xy77> perlmonkey: thanks for the info
[10:57] <Joseaa> perlmonkey: No efffect
[10:57] <Joseaa> *effect
[10:58] <nikin> Joseaa: ctrl+alt+F2?
[10:58] <asc> megatill: Hm. Well, it's an improvement at least.
[10:58] <qwast> hey . Please hel me what is the channel to Ubuntu swe?
 ok i have gone to /etc/x11/xorg.config should i open these files and find where i can manualy type in the screen size?
[10:58] <xy77> astro76: did you install from scratch or update to 7.04?
[10:58] <SlimeyPete> !swedish
[10:58] <ubotu> Svensk Ubuntu- och Kubuntusupport hittar du pa #ubuntu-se resp. #kubuntu-se
[10:58] <Joseaa> nikin: Yea. that take me to a login screen
[10:58] <Joseaa> but why did it get stuck earlier ?
[10:58] <qwast> TACk s mycket
[10:58] <perlmonkey> ilu: manually typing in the screen size may not work and may cause X to crash if your card is not properly configured
[10:59] <megatill> hm asc
[10:59] <perlmonkey> ilu: but you can true it yes
[10:59] <perlmonkey> *try
[10:59] <nikin> Joseaa: that was tty6 or 8 witch is the one for text messages on boot... thts no login console
[10:59] <megatill> asc, filsystem checking ... but i had shutdown my pc normaly
[10:59] <nikin> best use tty1 to 5
[10:59] <ALASKAMAN> can some one show me what the forward line in named.conf.options should look like
[10:59] <perlmonkey> ilu: it's probably better to run dpkg-reconfigure on xorg and then enter in your sizes from there
[10:59] <beni> lawl I'm installing ubuntu on my old box and the whole screen is full of "Killed" oO
[10:59] <asc> megatill: Oh. It does that every so often.
[10:59] <Zimnick|Away> anyone know how to disable desktop effects in 7.04 through the cli?
[11:00] <nikin> p99: tell me if you get to the monitor conf
 ok ill give it a try...
[11:00] <beni> Ubuntu Server of course...  the Setup config went good, but now only echo "Killed" is on the screen^^ all way down
[11:00] <asc> megatill: If that was 1:50 *with* the checking, you're probably good to go. Boot again and see what happens?
[11:00] <astro76> xy77, 7.04 from scratch on this laptop, I have eth0 and eth1 is wireless though (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29623/)
[11:00] <perlmonkey> ilu: just find out what your graphics is and what driver is needs before you start
[11:00] <oxeimon3> I've having a lot of trouble with a Kernel panic, can anyone help?
[11:00] <asc> megatill: Unless you didn't count the checking time. In which case it's slow.
[11:00] <perlmonkey> ilu: if you are not sure, try lspci or refer to dmesg
[11:01] <p99> yeah I just finished that part...
[11:01] <oxeimon3> I've having a lot of trouble with a Kernel panic, can anyone help? Whole error is: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block(0,0), Please append a correct "root=" boot option.
[11:01] <asc> megatill: One other thing you can do is install sysv-rc-conf and use it to turn of unecessary services. It helps boot time a little.
[11:01] <nikin> p99: you checked the desired resolutions?
[11:01] <p99> yes
[11:01] <megatill> need i unecessary service?
[11:01] <nikin> so the you finished configuring and see the promt
[11:01] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: your boot menu / grub is screwed, has wrong path?
[11:02] <nikin> ?
[11:02] <p99> resolution wasn't the problem
[11:02] <p99> I can test it now
[11:02] <p99> same command for gdm stop but restart?
[11:02] <p99> Or should I reboot first?
[11:02] <nikin> no restart but   start
[11:02] <nikin> no reboot
[11:03] <p99> ok
[11:03] <oxeimon3> where can I look at the path?
[11:03] <megatill> asc need i  unecessary services
[11:03] <oxeimon3> how would I know it's wrong?
[11:03] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: when grub boot menu loads, press E button
[11:03] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: will let you edit the menu paths
[11:03] <p99> ugh same as before
[11:04] <oxeimon3> ok
[11:04] <unagi> sigh
[11:04] <unagi> is there an adobe premiere program for linux?
[11:04] <oxeimon3> the thing is right
[11:04] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: be sure you know what you are doing tho
[11:04] <asc> megatill: Ah, that is a good question. Probably the best idea is to google all the ones that are activated, and disable any you're *sure* you don't need.
[11:04] <perlmonkey> could make things worse else
[11:04] <Kprofthreat> How do I give everyone access to modify a file/folder w/ chmod again?
[11:04] <p99> maybe my monitor is 15 inches and not 17.
[11:04] <SlimeyPete> unagi: no, nothing as powerful as PRemiere
[11:04] <megatill> ok
[11:04] <sacata> como te llamas quien se ponga conmigo
[11:04] <SlimeyPete> unagi: Cinelarra, kino and pitivi will edit video though
[11:04] <unagi> well thats lame =(
[11:04] <nikin> p99: hmmm.... what is the exact problem? maybe i misunderstood it...
[11:04] <SlimeyPete> Cinelarra is probably closest to Premiere
[11:04] <oxeimon3> there are two options: ubuntu kernel 2.6.20-15-generic, and Ubuntu 7.04 (7.04) (on /dev/sda3)
[11:04] <oxeimon3> the first one boots fine, and the second doesn't

[11:05] <sacata> estas  estas  estudiando
[11:05] <SlimeyPete> unagi: tricky things to program, unfortunately. Creating an OSS clone of Premiere would take a lot of time and effort, I should think.
[11:05] <oxeimon3> do you know what could be the difference between the two?
[11:05] <SlimeyPete> email Adobe and ask them to port Premiere over :)
[11:05] <Kprofthreat> How do I give everyone access to modify a file/folder w/ chmod again?
[11:05] <unagi> all i really need is an application similar to premiere where i can take a .mov and export it to a bunch of .iffs
[11:05] <p99> ok, pretent that the small black border from the monitor got 2 inches larger shrinking the video output to the center of the screen so it wasn't utilizing all the monitor
[11:05] <SlimeyPete> unagi: cinelarra reads .movs
[11:06] <SlimeyPete> it might do what you want
[11:06] <p99> IF that makes sense
[11:06] <sacata> yo si estoy  estudiando primero  de eso
[11:06] <astro76> Kprofthreat, chmod 666
[11:06] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: basic kernel and configured kernerl?
[11:06] <Kprofthreat> Thx
[11:06] <asc> Kprofthreat: 'chmod a+rw file'
[11:06] <nikin> p99: but the resolution is the same as before the problem?
[11:06] <holymoly> p99, just a wild stab i'm too tired to really dig ... but are you sure your monitor settings aren't causing that?
[11:06] <unagi> but does it export to iffs
[11:06] <holymoly> you might haveto expand the monitor viewing area using the moni buttons?
[11:06] <sacata> espero que alguien me  conteste
[11:06] <holymoly> i've seen something like that sorta happen
[11:06] <SlimeyPete> unagi: no idea, sorry. It might do...
[11:07] <perlmonkey> holymoly: how long you been awake
[11:07] <oxeimon3> the one that doesn't work has "root (hd0,2), and then, "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=/dev/sda3", and then "savedefault", "boot"
[11:07] <p99> I have an old dell laptop. I cannot change the monitor settings. But I thought that was it at first too.
[11:07] <Kprofthreat> Sacata, que estas estudiando?
[11:07] <holymoly> rightnow about 28 hours
[11:07] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: the most common problem is this part (hd0,2)
[11:07] <sacata> dame tu numero de telefono
[11:07] <Kprofthreat> Numero de...?
[11:07] <nikin> p99: on laptops when it does not utilize the whole screen it means most time that the resolution is lower
[11:08] <TheSystem> /server -m irc.lusc.de
[11:08] <oxeimon3> the one that does work has same first line, but then "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=0262ab28-6f90-4239->", "initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic", "quiet", "savedefault"
[11:08] <oxeimon3> hm
[11:08] <oxeimon3> oh wait, the first line is different for the one that works
[11:08] <holymoly> p99, oh laptop! sorry
[11:08] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: make sure hdx,y  x= right hdd number, remember 0 = 1 in Linux... and y = partition, same applies..so 2 = 3rd partition

[11:09] <nikin> p99: i dont know dell monitors but maybe there is a Fn button combo that stretches it to the whole screen but that will be ugly
[11:09] <oxeimon3> its "root (hd0,1)' for the one that works, and "root (hd0,2)" for the one that doesn't work.
[11:09] <sacata> eso ya lo se
[11:09] <oxeimon3> hmm
[11:09] <Kprofthreat> Astro, he might already be in there and not getting results...
[11:09] <Kprofthreat> He said he already knows that
[11:09] <p99> so it would be setting it at 1024x### when the monitor only handles 600x800 or something
[11:09] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: change one that doesnt work to hd0,1

[11:11] <p99> great the config froze
[11:11] <astro76> Kprofthreat, communicating channel rules is not spamming
[11:11] <p99> not yet
[11:11] <jetscreamer> heatxsink: yeah
[11:11] <perlmonkey> sheesh my hand got infected
[11:12] <sacata> porque me lo pones en ingles
[11:12] <heatxsink> jetscreamer:  thanks!
[11:12] <Kprofthreat> FIVE people repeated the same thing in the last minute alone!
[11:12] <nikin> p99: what resolutions did you enable on reconfiguring?
[11:12] <Kprofthreat> THAT'S not spamming?
[11:12] <Kprofthreat> Once will suffice.
[11:12] <jetscreamer> no sabe por que tu eres aqui
[11:12] <Myrtti> sacata, Kprofthreat: STICK to English or I'll be quite annoyed
[11:12] <perlmonkey> Kprofthreat has a point
[11:12] <sacata> de donde eres tu
[11:12] <jetscreamer> tu sabe necisita /join #ubuntu-es
[11:12] <jetscreamer> sabes
[11:13] <Myrtti> annoyed --> kicks start to happen
[11:13] <jetscreamer> buena suerta
[11:13] <rgl> hi.  what are the permissions on your /aquota.user file?
[11:13] <ieee802> i've done a backup data dvd-r in windows but i have problems in reading it with linux someone have had the same problem and found a way to fix it? dvd mount only at the start of the system or with mount /dev/dvd but then it doesn't unmount until reboot
[11:13] <sacata> el que
[11:13] <perlmonkey> hehe
[11:13] <Kprofthreat> He says, no one knows why you are here
[11:13] <p99> 600*800, 1024*###, and one lower than 600
[11:13] <Kprofthreat> Lol
[11:13] <jetscreamer> my spanish sucks
[11:13] <perlmonkey> Myrtti like an angry bee that stings eh
[11:13] <oxeimon3> any ideas, perlmonkey?
[11:13] <oxeimon3> o.O
[11:13] <PriceChild> His ip is troublesome.
[11:14] <Myrtti> I prefer good hearty threats
[11:14] <ieee802> i've found in forums that several people have my same problem but no solutions
[11:14] <nikin> p99 : are you sure your monitor is capabele of handeling 1024?
[11:14] <Kprofthreat> Sacata, jetscreamer es correcto. Nosotros no hablamos espanol normalmente
[11:14] <jetscreamer> !info hwinfo
[11:14] <ubotu> hwinfo: Hardware identification system. In component universe, is optional. Version 13.11-3 (feisty), package size 40 kB, installed size 108 kB
[11:14] <Myrtti> Kprofthreat: he's not here anymmore
[11:14] <perlmonkey> oxeimon3: i dunno what to suggest bud really, maybe boot up in your safe kernel, and then have a nosey around and see what happened to your kernel
[11:14] <Kprofthreat> I lagged.
[11:14] <p99> yeah that's what I always have it at
[11:14] <Myrtti> Kprofthreat: :-(
[11:14] <Kprofthreat> That actually was submitted a while ago.
[11:14] <Kprofthreat> =/
[11:14] <ALASKAMAN>  how do i fix this rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused
[11:14] <p99> I can reconfigure withought it and check though
[11:15] <nikin> p99: no need for that
[11:15] <p99> ok
[11:15] <nikin> what did you specify as color depth?
[11:15] <p99> 24
[11:15] <jetscreamer> try not using uuid and see what happens
[11:15] <floriaki1> i use KTorrent 2.1! yesterday it crashed once and since restarting it i don't see the "details"(progress bar, peers etc.) of every torrent in the lower half of the window anymore... i couldn't find a setting to display it, can u help me?
[11:15] <jetscreamer> or manually booting the kernel via grubshell even better
[11:16] <perlmonkey> phew this channel could make ones head spin
[11:16] <jetscreamer> it's somewhere under ~/.kde floriaki1
[11:16] <nikin> p99: try restart and open the config program again.. that should not freeze
[11:16] <perlmonkey> Ubuntu really is the busiest place
[11:16] <nikin> i mean screen resolution
[11:17] <p99> ok, I had left it for like 5 minutes and my laptop is prolly getting 'tired' from the heat
[11:17] <unagi> how do i change the splash screen?
[11:17] <PriceChild> unagi, which one?
[11:17] <perlmonkey> does anyone use aMule? do you find it incredibly CPU intensive?
[11:17] <unagi> after u type ur name and  password
[11:17] <nikin> p99: ok
[11:17] <echosystm> guys, at the moment i have a geforce 4 mx in my computer
[11:18] <echosystm> i am planning on putting a geforce 4 ti i have lying around in there
[11:18] <p99> ok I restarted the config
[11:18] <perlmonkey> I have geforce fx
[11:18] <echosystm> will i need to reinstall the drivers?
[11:18] <echosystm> or do anything like that?
[11:18] <ilu> i am in /etc/x11/xorg.conf what should i change in order to fix the problem that the screen deapth is at 640*480?
[11:18] <PriceChild> unagi, /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/ubuntu-splash.png is the file i think
[11:18] <ALASKAMAN>  how do i fix this rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused
[11:18] <echosystm> both cards should use the same driver
[11:18] <nikin> p99: what options are listed?
[11:18] <unagi> PriceChild:  the one after u type ur name and pwd
[11:19] <perlmonkey> ilu: you are gonna screw that up, I just know it
[11:19] <p99> oh wait I didn't start it
[11:19] <nikin> p99 : ok
[11:19] <unagi> ty
[11:19] <unagi> brb
[11:19] <p99> damn apt has it locked
[11:19] <PriceChild> unagi, yes its that one... that is a link which you just need to redirect to whatever image you want.
[11:19] <heatxsink> is there a how-to on how apache modules are packaged?
 but the problem is in that file though right?
[11:19] <megatill> asc another problem on sturup the spash -> into textmodus, firmeware_helper [3470]  main error why????
[11:19] <p99> whoa
[11:19] <p99> ctrl-q unfroze it!
[11:19] <perlmonkey> ilu: well if you dont specific a proper driver in X config for your graphix card, X will default to 640x480
[11:20] <nikin> p99 :P
[11:20] <unagi> how do u redirect
[11:20] <perlmonkey> and if you try and force it higher, it will crash
[11:20] <oxeimon3> whats the default password for root?
[11:20] <PriceChild> !sudo | oxeimon3
[11:20] <ubotu> oxeimon3: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
 ah... and i choose 'nvidia' as driver...
[11:20] <unagi> !root
[11:20] <ubotu> 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
[11:20] <unagi> oxeimon3:  !root
[11:20] <asc> megatill: That's not an error I'm familiar with. I'll so some looking.
[11:21] <oxeimon3> hm
[11:21] <perlmonkey> ilu: but to answer your question anyway, look under the "Screen" section
[11:21] <nikin> p99: ?
[11:21] <perlmonkey> ilu: do you see a proper graphix card name, or just "Generic" ?
[11:21] <unagi> PriceChild:  how do i redirect it
[11:21] <p99> sorry
[11:22] <p99> ok got to monitor part again
[11:22] <p99> i'll choose simple because I don't know the specs of my monitor
[11:22] <nikin> check 1024x768 800x600 and 640x480  nothing else
[11:22] <megatill> is this perhaps the problem asc?
[11:22] <nikin> p99 : dont do that

[11:22] <p99> I actually unticked 1024
[11:22] <ilu> perlmonkey Screen"
[11:22] <ilu> 	Identifier	"Default Screen"
[11:22] <ilu> 	Device		"Club NVIDIA"
[11:22] <ilu> 	Monitor		"AST"
[11:22] <ilu> 	DefaultDepth	24
[11:23] <perlmonkey> ilu: under Screen, "SubSection Display" is where you set the resolution options
[11:23] <ilu> this is what it says under screen
[11:23] <asc> megatill: I don't know. Does it pause there at all? Also, how is your boot time without the disk check?
[11:23] <perlmonkey> ok that doesn't look too clever to me
[11:23] <nikin> p99: dont mind
[11:23] <nikin> lets try this way
[11:23] <oxeimon3> so, in the command line, when I type cd ~/, it just sends me to my home, which has nothing
[11:23] <megatill> diskcheck asc?
[11:23] <ilu> perlmonkey but but there are many options here
[11:23] <perlmonkey> ilu: what do you have under Section Device
[11:23] <SlimeyPete> oxeimon3: that's normal, yes
[11:23] <oxeimon3> all the data is apparently on sda3, which is a disk
[11:24] <oxeimon3> how do I get there via the terminal
[11:24] <megatill> i havent disapled diskchech asc where can i do this?
[11:24] <oxeimon3> basically my home just has Desktop, which has nothing on it
[11:24] <ilu> 	Identifier	"Default Screen"
[11:24] <ilu> 	Device		"Club NVIDIA"
[11:24] <ilu> 	Monitor		"AST"
[11:24] <SlimeyPete> oxeimon3: type "mount" to find out where sda3 has been mounted
[11:24] <ilu> thats what i have
[11:24] <SlimeyPete> oxeimon3: then CD to there
[11:24] <asc> megatill: Oh, whoops. You meant the normal disk check didn't you, not one where there's a progress bar?
[11:24] <ilu> that was text i put in myself
[11:24] <ilu> i did an edit earlier today
[11:24] <ilu> just some randon text
[11:25] <perlmonkey> sheesh
[11:25] <megatill> yes asc but what do you mean?
[11:25] <perlmonkey> you cant put random shit in there
[11:25] <perlmonkey> let X detect the card
 HOW DO I FIX THIS PLZ GOD HELP
[11:25] <ilu> !!
[11:25] <asc> megatill: You can disable that by doing 'sudo touch /fastboot' but it's not recommended.
[11:25] <PriceChild> !ohmy | perlmonkey
[11:25] <ubotu> perlmonkey: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
 how do i do that? reboot?
[11:25] <oxeimon3> ahh okay thanks
[11:25] <perlmonkey> ilu: right, backup that xorg.conf file, and then reconfigure
[11:25] <megatill> hm ok asc
[11:26] <megatill> then i will doing this not
 just copy and paste the file somewere else?
[11:26] <nikin> p99: any progress
[11:26] <megatill> :)
[11:26] <perlmonkey> ilu: before you start, make sure/write down what your graphics card model is and what driver it needs
[11:26] <asc> megatill: Not sure if that will work for just one boot or always. You can probable 'sudo chmod a-rwx /fastboot' to make it permanent.
[11:26] <p99> I thought you were typing something
[11:26] <perlmonkey> ilu: well just do from terminal cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak
[11:26] <p99> cus you said 'let's try it this way'
[11:26] <pepito> hey, someboyd tell me why the video performance of my new Guadalinex (Ubuntu based) has dropped down for desktop tasks
[11:26] <perlmonkey> PriceChild: apologies
[11:27] <megatill> okay asc but the error firmeware_helper [3470]  main error, i think thats the reasen that the pc goes from the spash screen into textmode
[11:27] <nikin> p99: i mean the easy config.. i mainly use advanced and then accept the defaults, that worked by me 99% of the times
 god cannot think with all this text i msg you
[11:28] <nikin> p99: and select 16 bit instead of 24
[11:28] <dvm> Howto define window size  in gtk?
[11:28] <asc> megatill: I'm not finding any references to that problem. Are you running 32 or 64 bit ubuntu?
[11:28] <p99> ok i used medium, 800*600 @ 60hz. That's what it's usually at
[11:28] <p99> ok
[11:28] <megatill> 32bit asc
[11:28] <perlmonkey> anyone else had bad experiences with fx5200 cards made by manufacturers other than Nvidia?
[11:29] <ilu>  perlmonkey okey so i have this graphics card: nvidia agp 6200 club 256 ddr2 64bit
[11:29] <p99> hmm. The color is better but that buffer remains intact
[11:29] <perlmonkey> ilu: ok cool
[11:29] <perlmonkey> ilu: make sure you have the driver installed
[11:29] <ilu>  perlmonkey so how do i find out the name of the driver and were it is at?
[11:29] <ilu>  perlmonkey how do i do that?
[11:29] <perlmonkey> ilu: its important to have the right driver installed before you begin X config
  how do i do that?
[11:30] <nikin> p99: select system > preferencies > screen resolution from the menu
[11:30] <nikin> does it show any other options than 640x480?
 no it does not
[11:30] <ilu> i got the same problem
[11:30] <megatill> asc i had to go eat see you later :) thanks
[11:30] <asc> megatill: When it enters text mode, does it continue to boot normally to the login screen?
[11:30] <megatill> you can go into my query asc *Smile*
[11:31] <megatill> yes asc
[11:31] <p99> still loading
[11:31] <perlmonkey> ilu: you will have to search google to be sure, but I am thinking its probably nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new
[11:31] <nikin> p99: what kind of laptop do you have?
[11:31] <asc> megatill: I actually can't find anything on it. You could disable the splash screen so it just boots in text mode until it starts the login screen, but you probably don't want that.
 and i fix that in synaptic?
[11:32] <megatill> asc my feet; eat ... see you :)
[11:32] <asc> megatill: Right, later.
[11:32] <p99> dell p2 333mhz, 128mb ram, 6gig hdd
[11:32] <perlmonkey> ilu: ya, or just do sudo apt-get install (driver-package)
[11:32] <perlmonkey> ilu: do make sure you install the right driver tho, theres plenty of sites will tell you which driver to use
[11:33] <p99> naw video mode was all wong on that one
[11:33] <p99> think it's cus it had frozen
[11:33] <perlmonkey> ilu: once the driver is installed, you should be able to reconfigure X and have it detect automatically the card
[11:33] <ilu> <perlmonke i think i found some shit in synaptic now.. the nvidia driver is already installed and it is in red color... something happend here
[11:33] <ilu> this is were the problem is
[11:33] <p99> I have a newmagic card. should I configure it with neomagic drivers or the vesa?
[11:34] <perlmonkey> ilu: if it cannot, a list of drivers will be presented, including the one for your card you installed, just select that, and all the resolution options will appear automatically
[11:34] <p99> neomagic
[11:34] <nikin> p99: if there are newmagic driver then use themn
[11:34] <p99> ok
[11:34] <perlmonkey> ilu: be sure to select/put a star next to the all the resolutions you want available in X
[11:34] <spaghetti> hey all- I installed my Nvidia card this orning and when I tried to enable desktop effects I lost my windows, including the buttons (maximise, minimise, etc..) any ideas?
[11:35] <SlimeyPete> spaghetti: make sure that Emerald is installed and running.
[11:35] <perlmonkey> ilu: is the driver correct one?
[11:35] <PriceChild> spaghetti, try #ubuntu-effects please.
[11:35] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, emerald isn't used by desktop effects
[11:35] <SlimeyPete> spaghetti: or whatever the compiz equivalent is, I forget
[11:35] <SlimeyPete> PriceChild: what does compiz use?
[11:36] <perlmonkey> what is compiz I keep hearing people refer to this today
[11:36] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, gtk-window-decorator I think is the name..
[11:36] <SlimeyPete> perlmonkey: desktop effects.
[11:36] <PriceChild> perlmonkey, #ubuntu-effects please.
[11:36] <spaghetti> PriceChild: there's no response there.
[11:36] <perlmonkey> oh thanks
[11:36] <PriceChild> spaghetti, then be patient
[11:36] <perlmonkey> sounds like a load of memory-eating shit
[11:36] <PriceChild> perlmonkey, language
[11:36] <perlmonkey> apologies *does fear grin*
[11:36] <SlimeyPete> perlmonkey: it's a bit pointless, yes. But it's purty.
[11:37] <spaghetti> PriceChild: been wating for 30mins. Could you just tell me, what I need to be looking fore. Is it a Gnome thing?
[11:37] <perlmonkey> purty like the breasts on a cheerleader?
[11:38] <nikin> spaghetti: it is a gl driver problem, look around on the forums, it was topic there numerous times
[11:38] <p99> yes the black buffer is gone. Thank you so much
[11:38] <nikin> p99: sorry for being slow
[11:38] <p99> Now I need to restart. My desktop isn't loading...
[11:39] <perlmonkey> restarting is a windows solution, but on occasion it can solve problems quick in Linux too
[11:39] <p99> Nikin this is a crowded irc i'm surprised you didn't forget me
[11:39] <p99> anyways brb
[11:39] <p99> q

[11:40] <b0ha> tnx
[11:40] <ilu> i fixed the problem
[11:40] <ilu> with screen size
[11:40] <ilu> its in synaptic
[11:40] <perlmonkey> ilu: good man
[11:41] <ilu> the driver was dissabled
[11:41] <perlmonkey> ahhh
[11:41] <perlmonkey> that explains why card was not detected in X
[11:41] <ilu> go to synaptic and just right click it and do something
[11:41] <ilu> thanks for the help perl
[11:41] <perlmonkey> np
[11:41] <amigrave> since last upgrade (with kernel upgrade to Linux dev 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP), my first hardrive which was always named /dev/hda  has suddently become   /dev/sda  !!?? Does someone knows why this could happen ?
[11:41] <nikin> anyone has nice big screens :D
[11:42] <ilu> lol but now i got another issue... when i played around in xorg.conf i changed my keyboard settings
[11:42] <perlmonkey> sda = scsi hard drive
[11:42] <nikin> now plz someone get me my second cpu :P
[11:42] <ilu> i have changed into american layout and i need to change back to swedish
[11:42] <SlimeyPete> perlmonkey: or ide, these days

[11:44] <perlmonkey> nikin: oh sorry i confused you with someone else, you had the same speed CPU ;-)
[11:44] <SlimeyPete> nikin: ah. You need to install the smp kernel. There's a package for it in the repos, can'tremember what it's called.
[11:44] <perlmonkey> yeah Pete is right, was just about to say
[11:44] <nikin> SlimeyPete: that will be ok ty
[11:44] <ilu> did the other guy fix his screen issues also?
[11:44] <ilu> nikin
[11:44] <SlimeyPete> nikin: feisty uses SMP by default btw, so if you can get hold of that it might be easier.
[11:44] <ilu> p99
[11:44] <perlmonkey> else the system is treated as a single CPU eh
[11:44] <ilu> or what his nick was?
[11:45] <nikin> ilu : yep?

[11:53] <Spaceman3750> Nikin: It's nice, ain't it?
[11:53] <Doel_Kenyoet> thanks
[11:54] <Spaceman3750> Live CD is good for me too, I'm an independent computer tech, and if I have to deal with a client w/ crashed Windows, I can still get to their files and back them up and reformat
[11:57] <megatill> asc bye sse you later
[11:59] <Doel_Kenyoet> ok
[12:02] <meglo> the nvidia xorg drivers need libc-headers to compile a kernel module, but I don't know what to apt-get, I had to do this before and I remember the required headers not named what you would think they would be
[12:02] <PriceChild> meglo, why are you compiling it yourself?
[12:02] <meglo> Because I can :<
[12:02] <meglo> it works, all I had to do was stop x
[12:02] <PriceChild> meglo, we have prebuilt packages for you... which are supported.
[12:03] <meglo> are they the proprietary drivers from nvidia?
[12:03] <PriceChild> meglo, yes
[12:03] <PriceChild> !nvidia | meglo
[12:03] <ubotu> meglo: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:03] <meglo> Well, I'm already knee deep in this, I just need to know the libc header filename, if that can't be provided then I'll look into that link
[12:04] <PriceChild> meglo, I suggest you stop... and read that guide
[12:04] <astro76> meglo, linux-libc-dev ?
[12:04] <astro76> meglo, and what PriceChild said
[12:04] <PriceChild> meglo, the method you are using is not supported by ubuntu and may break if you don't know what you're doing...
[12:04] <Spaceman3750> Something I noticed...  A lot of the programs in the repository start with the letter K...
[12:04] <meglo> it seemed pretty straight forward the first time i did it and it worked, but if you insist
[12:04] <Spaceman3750> Meglo, why make life more difficult on yourself?
[12:05] <Spaceman3750> :P
[12:05] <meglo> it doesn't seem that difficult tho :/
[12:05] <meglo> unless I run into problem
[12:05] <PriceChild> meglo, seriously.. do it the ubuntu way and read that guide
[12:05] <Spaceman3750> Dude, it's Linux...  Anything that doesn't have a UI is difficult :P
[12:05] <astro76> Spaceman3750, sadly most kde programs start with k
[12:05] <PriceChild> Spaceman3750, because kde apps like to start with k, and gnome apps like to start with g
[12:05] <nikin> see you all later...
[12:05] <meglo> ok, thanks
[12:05] <meglo> brb
[12:05] <Spaceman3750> Astro, do KDE programs still run on Gnome, or do you have to be using Kbuntu?
[12:05] <Spaceman3750> I see
[12:06] <PriceChild> Spaceman3750, they work fine
[12:06] <astro76> they will work
[12:06] <PriceChild> Spaceman3750, just not as much bling :)
[12:06] <unagi> i love how customizable linux is
[12:06] <Spaceman3750> Ditto
[12:06] <Spaceman3750> I hear KDE is more like the Windows enviornment, but I don't find the Windows enviornment and the Gnome enviornment much different
[12:07] <unagi> i dont like kde
[12:07] <Olgem> !nvidia
[12:07] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:07] <Spik1> Problem. im tribooting on a intel macbook with rEFIt. Just installed 7.0.4. when i choose the mac partition, it boots mac. But when i choose the windows or the ubuntu partition, they both boot grep. furthermore my up and down arrows dont work so i cant choose the OS in grep either. it just goes with the first hilighted wich is Ubuntu's normal one. Is there any way to seperate the boot? or at least get it to recognize keystrokes?
[12:07] <pberzosa> ola
[12:07] <PriceChild> pberzosa, espanol?
[12:07] <pberzosa> de donde sois
[12:07] <pberzosa> de donde eres
[12:08] <pberzosa> eeeeeee
[12:08] <PriceChild> pberzosa, /join #ubuntu-es
[12:09] <Spaceman3750> You know the thing I like best about Ubuntu?  Fewer security concerns and the updater doesn't bug you every 5 minutes to reboot :P
[12:09] <unagi> are there viruses for linux?
[12:09] <PriceChild> !virus | unagi
[12:09] <ubotu> unagi: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[12:10] <polarheat> hi, question: is there a "switchdesk" program for ubuntu (i'm using dapper)?
[12:10] <Spaceman3750> There are some in the wild, but not many because there is a very small userbase for Linux, therefore it is not much of a target.  My understanding anyways.
[12:11] <polarheat> Spaceman3750: what do you mean by "small user base" ?
[12:11] <Olgem> <120,000,000 users
[12:11] <Spaceman3750> *Smaller
[12:11] <Spik1> anyone at all? about my boot problem
[12:11] <Spaceman3750> Smaller than Windows
[12:11] <Olgem> restarting, brb
[12:12] <Spaceman3750> When you could go after 90% of the market share much more easily than 5%, you're probably going with 90% (Windows) if you're a virus designer
[12:12] <capiira> i would say linux has no virus because most people just install stuff from original sources or from their distro repositories, they rarely/never have contain virus
[12:12] <lazz0> hello, do you know why my brightness settings dont save after restart? i use nvidia-settings, i tried gksudo, sudo etc
[12:13] <togr> capiira, you're fairly new to the linux world then?
[12:13] <unagi> yay for no viruses!
[12:13] <Spaceman3750> Ditto
[12:13] <capiira> ok soory mal ware then
[12:13] <capiira> its easy to incluse a .sh into a setup that destroys your whole system
[12:13] <PriceChild> capiira, yes
[12:13] <Tama00> i need to do a network installation.. where can i find out how to do this
[12:14] <PriceChild> capiira, if you run it with sudo
[12:14] <tarzeau> Tama00: look for pxe boot?
[12:14] <Tama00> there is no other way, this laptop has no cdrom drive no floppy and doesnt boot off flash
[12:14] <Tama00> tarzeau, yeah
[12:14] <DBFT2> hey
[12:14] <capiira> any user would type the admin password if he try to install something
[12:14] <DBFT2> i've just installed ubuntu on a laptop, and im having some problems
[12:14] <DBFT2> i typed apt-get remove gaim, and i got a page full of "failed to write cache" on almost every action
[12:15] <DBFT2> dependency problems prevent configuration of openoffice.org-writer
[12:15] <DBFT2> etc.
[12:15] <DBFT2> any idea why? :|
[12:15] <koen> hi, i have a strange thing. My disk partitions got messy names. My firts is sda2, the second sda1. Also, I have no sda4 (and no, that is not an extending partition or something..). Is there away to rename the devices (computer wide, so also for Grub and stuff)
[12:15] <Frogzoo> koen: yes - rearrange your hardware
[12:16] <capiira> when linux become more used the malware will come
[12:16] <unagi> anyone know how to get card readers to work in ubuntu?
[12:16] <astro76> koen, it doesn't really matter though, does it? ubuntu uses UUID anyway
[12:16] <koen> Frogzoo, you mean: repartition the whole stuff?
[12:16] <gcosmin> how can i reconect my wireless from console
[12:16] <DBFT2> every time i try to use apt-get i get errors from openoffice? :(
[12:17] <PriceChild> DBFT2, feisty?
[12:17] <DBFT2> yup
[12:17] <PriceChild> DBFT2, pastebin the errors please
[12:17] <DBFT2> ok wait there
[12:17] <DBFT2> (different computer)
[12:17] <Frogzoo> koen: no - I mean where you plug in your harddrives is how the device name gets allocated
[12:17] <koen> astro76, i have device names manually set in my fstab. But indead, it doesnt matter for performance. But i just do not like it. So i wanted to know if i could change it back
[12:18] <koen> so you mean that unplugging it
[12:18] <koen> load the system
[12:18] <DBFT2> http://pastebin.com/m33c3b3f8
[12:18] <koen> then halt the pc agian
[12:18] <unagi> is there a site or something that explains linux file system such as what bin is and var and things like that
[12:18] <amb> tontos
[12:18] <koen> and connecting it agian.. will rearrange all?
[12:18] <unagi> i still dont know where 'program files' is
[12:19] <SlimeyPete> unagi: /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin
[12:19] <capiira> hmmmm unagi yeah there is but you will learn it better while using let me search
[12:19] <PriceChild> DBFT2, could you pastebin the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" please
[12:19] <capiira> http://www.linuxhowtos.org/System/hierarchy.htm
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> unagi: http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/sect_03_01.html   <-- some info
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> und3rB3ar: see section 3.2
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> sorry, table 3-2
[12:20] <koen> Frogzoo, just replug it will give my block devices logical names?
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> und3rB3ar: ^^
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> argh
[12:20] <DBFT2> ok, one second PriceChild
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> he's gorn
[12:20] <DBFT2> ill run to the other computer :p
[12:20] <SlimeyPete> sorry, und3rB3ar
[12:20] <brainiac_ghost> hmm
[12:20] <astro76> koen, I'm not sure of a way besides creating them in that order
[12:20] <gholm> hey all wondeirng aboout "lspci" if I have an onboard video AND another PCI-E video card installed. How can I tell which is which?
[12:21] <brainiac_ghost> my computer died, turn it on and it says fsck.ext3 failed, then when you boot up X doen't start and it comes up with
[12:21] <astro76> koen, not sure what you mean about your extended partition
[12:21] <SlimeyPete> gholm: just look at the manufacturer name and model in lspci
[12:21] <brainiac_ghost> apt-get: program apt is not installed, to install it type apt-get install apt
[12:21] <DBFT2> http://pastebin.com/m4a56fb11
[12:21] <gholm> SlimeyPete: both are nvidia chipsets
[12:22] <Spliffster> very strange. when i do "ssh -X host" the display variable id not set, X forwarding does not work. ssh -X -v gives no error. any idea what i am doing wrong ?
[12:22] <Rienzilla> Spliffster: do you use screen?
[12:22] <Spliffster> not in this xterm session, but i do use screen
[12:22] <SlimeyPete> gholm: ah. you might need to find out which chipset each one uses, then, and look for that in lspci.
[12:22] <Rienzilla> oh ok... then thats not it
[12:23] <gholm> SlimeyPete: yeah....s'pose so.
[12:23] <Rienzilla> sshd can obviously not set DISPLAY in all your virtual terminals, thats why I asked
[12:23] <Spliffster> i see
[12:23] <DBFT2> any ideas PriceChild?
[12:23] <SlimeyPete> Spliffster: is X-forwarding enabled on the machine you're logging in to?
[12:23] <Spliffster> SlimeyPete: yes
[12:23] <Rienzilla> heh, that was question 2 :)
[12:23] <Rienzilla> does it work if you set DISPLAY manually?
[12:23] <gholm> hey SlimeyPete I'm assuming the dpkg-reconfi blah process requires that I know the PCI address of the card I want, and that is shown in lspci?
[12:24] <PriceChild> DBFT2, hmm so you don't have any 3rd party repos... I'm not sure...
[12:24] <Spliffster> SlimeyPete: ssh -X -v does tell me that the server accepts x forwarding
[12:24] <koen> astro76. When you have have a extended partition that that one itself has a device name too, aswell as the logical partitions within it...
[12:24] <DBFT2> yeah
[12:24] <polarheat> anyone here knows how to switch from gnome to xfce (both are installed) when gdm is not running (that is i'm logging in from text mode).
[12:24] <DBFT2> its basically the default
[12:24] <DBFT2> im confused :p
[12:24] <astro76> koen, I know how it works... I mean do you have one or not, what is your setup?
[12:25] <astro76> koen, or just paste the output of mount to pastebin
[12:25] <Spliffster> Rienzilla: it seems pretty simmilar to problems i used to have with screen. ssh server accepts xforwarding but $DISPLAY is unset. when I set DISPLAY manually i get "cannot open display" errors. as if X forwarding would actually not work and the pakets go into nirvana
[12:26] <Spliffster> Rienzilla: also, no X server running on target
[12:27] <Rienzilla> uhm
[12:27] <Rienzilla> that might be a reason maybe?
[12:27] <Rienzilla> If the target is not running X, maybe ssh will not create a tunnel?
[12:27] <Rienzilla> im not sure about that though
[12:27] <Spliffster> Rienzilla: nae, i have no X server running except on my desktop. this might cause the problem but i have no problem with any other machine
[12:28] <Rienzilla> oh ok, your client runs an X server

[12:28] <Spliffster> yeah right Rienzilla
[12:28] <Rienzilla> weird
[12:28] <Rienzilla> that should work out of the box
[12:28] <astro76> !pastebin | koen use this in the future
[12:28] <ubotu> koen use this in the future: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:28] <Spliffster> wel... just tought it might be a know problem. thanks anyway Rienzilla
[12:28] <Rienzilla> np
[12:29] <astro76> koen, that's normal, you made two primaries, and three extended
[12:29] <astro76> koen, and you can still make a primary which will be sda4
[12:29] <koen> oh okay i understand now :)
[12:29] <koen> !pastebin
[12:29] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:30] <mvhome> how i can search feisty packeges using ubuntu site ? ( what is the URL)
[12:30] <Rienzilla> btw, any users with samba experience here? I tried to set up a samba server with vfs recycle module. I set recycle:keeptree to yes, but still the module does not create a directory structure beneath the recycle bin (It just stores all deleted files flat in the repository). Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
[12:30] <astro76> mvhome, packages.ubuntu.com
[12:30] <koen> astro76. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29630/ is this good?
[12:31] <mvhome> astro76, thanx alooot that's it :)
[12:31] <astro76> koen, yes, so basically you can have 4 primaries, sda1-4 and one can be an extended containing sda5 and up
[12:32] <Spliffster> Rienzilla: oh .. wrong channel, this server runs debian 4 ;)
[12:33] <togr> astro76,  is there an advantage to having several primaries over just making everything one big extended and defining all partitions inside this one?
[12:33] <koen> astro76. thanjks for the help
[12:33] <koen> bye
[12:34] <astro76> togr, some OSs like older windows (not sure if it's true lately) would need a primary to be the boot paritition
[12:34] <togr> right -- I seem to recall an older laptop needed the hibernation file to reside on a primary as well
[12:35] <astro76> togr, maybe some older bios limitations too
[12:36] <togr> astro76, exactly -- this was back in APM-time
[12:36] <Spaceman3750> What is the difference between suspending and hibernating?
[12:36] <Spaceman3750> While we're on the topic
[12:37] <togr> Spaceman3750, when suspending, your state is kept alive in RAM
[12:37] <astro76> Spaceman3750, suspend is to ram, hibernate saves ram to disk
[12:37] <togr> when hibernating, it is stored to disk
[12:37] <astro76> Spaceman3750, in linux you need a swap partition >= your ram size to use it
[12:37] <togr> and IBM lets you do both
[12:37] <Spaceman3750> I see
[12:38] <Spaceman3750> Thanks :)
[12:38] <togr> recover from RAM if it is still alive, and from disk otherwise
[12:38] <togr> very useful
[12:38] <DBFT2> how do you set the default app to open dvds to vlc instead of totem?
[12:38] <togr> ReadySafe I believe it was called
[12:38] <Spaceman3750> So is suspending like sleep mode in Windows?
[12:41] <xoRock> is there any software for mounting *.iso?
[12:41] <dev_0> olaaaaaa
[12:41] <togr> xoRock, yes -- mount
[12:41] <Spaceman3750> I was gonna say, Ubuntu will do it by default
[12:41] <xoRock> togr, thx budy
[12:42] <SlimeyPete> xoRock: http://thomer.com/howtos/mount_loopback.html
[12:42] <togr> xoRock, sure, any time!
[12:47] <togr> anyone know how to suppress join/leave messages in xchat?
[12:48] <askand> Someone else got problems with amsn today?
[12:50] <efaistos_> hi
[12:50] <fiXXXerMet> I'm trying to get one of my disks (/dev/sda1) to mount to /mount/disk/ on boot, but I can't figure it out.  Also, when i do it manually (double click on disk in My Computer), it asks me for a password (root).

[12:53] <Homer_Simpson> Hi my internet explorer will not install, can someone help?
[12:53] <fiXXXerMet> togr: I shall try.  That's all I need?  What about why it's asking me for a password when I open it the first time?
[12:54] <togr> "type" is filesystem type, i.e. fat16, ext2, etc
[12:54] <perlmonkey> kmail is killin me! I'm having problems with it freezing every time it starts, just locks up after checking mail.. getting lots of weird msgs in terminal, not sure if its relevant: kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action.  kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel( kacc = 0x8175d50 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "display_message"   /bin/sh: crm: not found
[12:54] <togr> the system asks you for passwd because you try to mount it as an ordinary user at runtime
[12:54] <Electronbeam> how do i set the audio capture to what i hear (similar to stereo mix in windows)
[12:54] <Homer_Simpson> my ie wont install, can anyone help?
[12:54] <Electronbeam> i need to be able to record my wave out
[12:55] <togr> if it is listed in /etc/fstab with appropriate flags it should be mounted as part of bringing the system online
[12:55] <Homer_Simpson> what?
[12:55] <fiXXXerMet> How is /dev/sdc1       /media/disk     reiserfs defaults       0       0

[12:55] <Homer_Simpson> so i can find that where?
[12:55] <togr> fiXXXerMet, is this one you had before or the one you want to add?
[12:56] <fiXXXerMet> Um, both.  Whenever I add it, I have to do so again at restart.
[12:56] <Homer_Simpson> it doesnt ask me to restart!
[12:56] <seb89> hello I'm not american so excuse me if I don't speak very well. Can someone help me because I'have an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 for graphic card and I'm not sure it is compatible with ubuntu

[12:56] <Homer_Simpson> its not my graphics, its ie
[12:56] <Electronbeam> audacity?
[12:56] <perlmonkey> yeah

[12:58] <fiXXXerMet> togr: I don't know (/dev/sdc1 wasn't in there before).  When I turn on the computer, I have to go to Places -> Computer and open the drive from there.  It asks me for a password, then mounts the drive for me.
[12:58] <perlmonkey> dd can write data from a device to a file
[12:58] <Electronbeam> lamens terms please
[12:58] <fiXXXerMet> I want to automate that.
[12:58] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam: that was lamens terms ;-)
[12:58] <troopperi_> Homer_Simpson: what are you installing and what system

[12:58] <Homer_Simpson> ie
[12:58] <perlmonkey> cool
[12:59] <togr> fiXXXerMet, okay.  When you *have* added it manually, the line you pasted has been added to /etc/fstab, correct?
[12:59] <Homer_Simpson> i got the mac version, it looks cooler
[12:59] <Homer_Simpson> but it wont install
[12:59] <fiXXXerMet> Yes
[12:59] <fiXXXerMet> Wait,  no, not it hasn't
[12:59] <togr> okay
[12:59] <fiXXXerMet> I did however just add that line to /etc/fstab by hand.
[12:59] <togr> where did you get that line then?
[12:59] <Homer_Simpson> can oyu help me?
[12:59] <perlmonkey> "I'm like you! we're the same you and I, we're the same! I wanna help you"
[12:59] <Electronbeam> homer
[12:59] <Electronbeam> its not going to work
[12:59] <SlimeyPete> Homer_Simpson: using ies4linux?
[01:00] <fiXXXerMet> togr: I just wrote it into there.
[01:00] <perlmonkey> who knows which movie that quote comes from
[01:00] <troopperi_> Homer_Simpson: i think you cant install m$ software without wine or vmplayer
[01:00] <Homer_Simpson> swhat? i want the mac version
[01:00] <Electronbeam> then get a mac XD
[01:00] <Homer_Simpson> i got ubuntu thoutgh
[01:00] <Electronbeam> yep
[01:00] <SlimeyPete> Homer_Simpson: MacOS software won't run under Linux.
[01:00] <Homer_Simpson> macs dont have the cool features that like linux
[01:00] <Homer_Simpson> why not? can you make it work?
[01:00] <ostannard> you cant insatll mac software without a mac
[01:00] <SlimeyPete> Homer_Simpson: you can use ies4linux (google it) to istall the Windows version under Linux
[01:00] <fiXXXerMet> togr: I guess this should work - I'll find out when I come home from work.  Thank you.
[01:00] <Homer_Simpson> awww why not?
[01:01] <togr> fiXXXerMet, okay -- and you know that the partition and reiserfs is correct?
[01:01] <Homer_Simpson> i dont haave lunux
[01:01] <Electronbeam> because they are two different OS's
[01:01] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam: I was able to record audio and video from my video capture device using dd if=/dev/video0 of=/home/file.mpg
[01:01] <Homer_Simpson> I use ubuntu not linux
[01:01] <fiXXXerMet> togr: yes
[01:01] <jurp5> lol iemand op #ubuntu vraagt hou hij internet explorer kan installeren: 12:59 < Homer_Simpson> i got the mac version, it looks cooler
[01:01] <SlimeyPete> Homer_Simpson: no, you can't make it work. MacOS is not Linux. They are different Operating Systems.
[01:01] <Electronbeam> ubuntu IS linux
[01:01] <Homer_Simpson> whats an OS
[01:01] <SlimeyPete> Homer_Simpson: ubuntu is linux
[01:01] <fiXXXerMet> (checked mount after manually mounting the drive)
[01:01] <Electronbeam> operating system
[01:01] <Homer_Simpson> whats an operating system
[01:01] <Sjimmie> lol :)
[01:01] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam: I'm wondering if the same could be done from soundcard device
[01:01] <Electronbeam> UBUNTU is an operating system
[01:01] <togr> fiXXXerMet, then it should work -- it should mount by itself next time you boot
[01:01] <Sjimmie>

[01:02] <PriceChild> togr, /me is watching
[01:02] <Homer_Simpson> what
[01:02] <SlimeyPete> trolls smell like 14-year-olds, y'know
[01:02] <SlimeyPete> 14-year-olds with greasy hair.
[01:02] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system
[01:02] <Electronbeam> perlmonkey:  in windows/recording properties/ it has wav out mix or steroe mix
[01:02] <Sjimmie> read it ;)
[01:02] <Electronbeam> perlmonkey: but in ubuntu, i cant find anything of the sort
[01:02] <Homer_Simpson> we dont know what half this stuff is, we got a friend to install ubuntu and get it to work, i just want IE to wrok
[01:03] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam: probably want /dev/audio
[01:03] <Electronbeam> Homer_Simpson: use firefox, safer, more secure
[01:03] <Spaceman3750> Homer, I guess you're in a boat load of crap then
[01:03] <Electronbeam> perlmonkey: simplify
[01:03] <Homer_Simpson> IE is so easy and fast and reliable to use, i really need it.
[01:03] <perlmonkey> that is simple
[01:03] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: you can run IE in wine
[01:03] <perlmonkey> can't get any simplier
[01:03] <Spaceman3750> IE isn't fast and reliable
[01:03] <Spaceman3750> It's anything but
[01:03] <Homer_Simpson> I dont like wine, i prefer beer
[01:03] <Homer_Simpson> nd why would i place my pc in wine?
[01:04] <perlmonkey> iE is a major security risk to your system and piracy
[01:04] <Electronbeam> Homer_Simpson: use firefox, that orange and blue thing, it runs like IE but its much more secure
[01:04] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_internet_explorer
[01:04] <Electronbeam> deff a troll
[01:04] <Homer_Simpson> i want ie
[01:04] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: just do what the website says
[01:04] <Sjimmie> and you get IE
[01:04] <perlmonkey> haha
[01:04] <Sjimmie> hahaha
[01:04] <Homer_Simpson> ?
[01:04] <Sjimmie> :)
[01:04] <SlimeyPete> where's the any key?
[01:04] <perlmonkey> Spaceman: what happened
[01:04] <Homer_Simpson> that makes no sense
[01:05] <togr> free as in wine
[01:05] <Homer_Simpson> thats an encyclopedia, i want ie
[01:05] <Spaceman3750> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ4aQhq2AjI
[01:05] <Electronbeam> Homer, do what the website says
[01:05] <perlmonkey> woohoo thanks
[01:05] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: my second link, this one http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_internet_explorer
[01:05] <Electronbeam> it will tell you how to get IE
[01:05] <Sjimmie> Homer_Simpson: that will help you
[01:05] <togr> I think the troll has had enough fun
[01:05] <Electronbeam> perlmonkey: im in /dev/
[01:05] <SlimeyPete> he doesn't want IE. He's a troll. Ignore him ;p
[01:05] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam ok
[01:05] <brainiac_ghost> SlimeyPete, but proving him wrong is funny :P
[01:05] <Homer_Simpson> i want 7, but oh well. thanks anyway
[01:06] <Homer_Simpson> have a nice time
[01:06] <brainiac_ghost> and you ^^
[01:06] <Spaceman3750> You too cartoon dude
[01:06] <SlimeyPete> you can't prove a troll ong. They don't tend to accept defeat ;)
[01:06] <brainiac_ghost> heh
[01:06] <Electronbeam> perlmonkey: is it in /dev/snd?
[01:06] <PlayMeNow> how big should I make the swap partition? I got 256 MB SDRAM (on WinXp it's 256, max: 512)
[01:06] <perlmonkey> Electronbeam: either that one, or audio
[01:06] <megatill> do somebody know how can i start eggdrop at strart up? also to creat a starter with a specific path?
[01:06] <Electronbeam> i have no /dev/audio
[01:06] <Electronbeam> Xd
[01:07] <perlmonkey> ok
[01:07] <vjvc> s
[01:07] <vjvc> s
[01:07] <vjvc> s
[01:07] <vjvc> s
[01:07] <vjvc> s
[01:07] <Spaceman3750> Hmm, while I'm thinking about it...  The sound that comes from all other software works, but I can't get the sound from Flash in FireFox to play
[01:07] <Homer_Simpson> i'll be off now, i mite come back if i have more troubles, thanks very mcuh for all the help. your a nice bunch of people
[01:07] <perlmonkey> sheesh
[01:07] <Electronbeam> sheesh all this spam
[01:07] <Electronbeam> perl, can we take this to IM
[01:07] <perlmonkey> f'kin losers
[01:07] <PlayMeNow> how big should I make the swap partition? I got 256 MB SDRAM (on WinXp it's 256, max: 512)
[01:07] <perlmonkey> sure
[01:07] <asc__> PlayMeNow: I recommend 392. If you actually use 512 swap, it'll be unusable from constant paging.
[01:07] <perlmonkey> PlayMeNow: generally speaking, 2x your physical memory
[01:07] <stefg> PlayMeNow: 256 to 384 MB
[01:07] <PlayMeNow> thanks asc_
[01:08] <Spaceman3750> Is there some Ubuntu quirk with Flash and sound?
[01:08] <bluey> PlayMeNow: At least enough to fit the whole ram if you want to hibernate. Twice the ram is the usual, less common with the ram size increases.
[01:08] <neonlinux> hey all, when browsing the net, where does the history/cache/ temp files get stored for firefox?
[01:08] <moDumass> hey all, does anyone have any idea how to customise Ktorrent? mine doesnt show the files associated with a torrent anymore- ie a torrent may be 3 files, how do i get that back?
[01:08] <asc__> Or you can use other numbers. I actually meant 384. :p
[01:08] <SlimeyPete> neonlinux: ~/.mozilla
[01:08] <PlayMeNow> and the ext3 should be primary or extended? I'd guess primary
[01:08] <perlmonkey> my kmail is really messed up :-/
[01:09] <Nightroad_X> speak Spanish ?
[01:09] <neonlinux> SlimeyPete: rats.. is that the only place.. not in tm or anything?
[01:09] <ilikec0ws> !es | Nightroad_X
[01:09] <ubotu> Nightroad_X: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:09] <neonlinux> *tmp
[01:09] <SlimeyPete> neonlinux: it might shove some stuff in /tmp I guess
[01:09] <Nightroad_X> thanks ^
[01:09] <SlimeyPete> but I'm not aware of any other locatios
[01:09] <asc__> PlayMeNow: Probably. Only need to use extended if you have more than four or five partitions.
[01:09] <neonlinux> SlimeyPete: ok thanks
[01:09] <neonlinux> :)
[01:10] <PlayMeNow> ok thanks goodbye
[01:11] <megatill> do somebody know how can i start eggdrop at strart up? also to creat a starter with a specific path?
[01:11] <heatxsink> aw crap you guys are gonna hate me, I didn't bookmark that link to making debs! sorry, could someone hook that up?
[01:11] <Slart> Hello, If I use gnome/nautilus to copy/move a file/folder I can't use nautilus to while it's still copying, it just waits until the copy/move is finished until it lets me do anything.. is this a feature? annoying thing that might get fixed in the future? fixable by me with some kind of setting?
[01:13] <Slart> megatill: startup when computer boots up? or when you log in? in ubuntu you have system, proferences, sessions where you can put stuff that you want to run when you log on
[01:14] <megatill> Slart: i know; when i log in; it'S for unreal for example; if i make that: home/megatill/Unreal3.2/unreal ./unreal start     that works not and i don'T know why
[01:14] <heatxsink> ??
[01:15] <ilu> can someone help me pwss
[01:15] <Slart> megatill: hmm.. I use sessions to start pidgeon and do some network folder mapping and it seems to work..
[01:15] <perlmonkey> ilu: what happened? I thought you fixed it
[01:15] <ghatak> Hi, i am trying to install NessusClient on my system, Edgy 6.10. I get the following error. nessusclient depends on libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8c-1); however: Version of libssl0.9.8 on system is 0.9.8b-2ubuntu2.
[01:15] <megatill> Slart: hm
[01:15] <ghatak> What can i do to fix it
[01:15] <Slart> megatill: make sure you use absolute path names
[01:15] <ilu> when i start something in a consol i always need to open another one because that one is used... is there a way to start several apps in the same concol?
[01:15] <ilu> perlmonkey :))
[01:15] <megatill> its the real path to unreal3.2
[01:16] <Slart> megatill: very odd.. nothing in the logs?

[01:18] <perlmonkey> ok kmail is really starting to get on my tits now
[01:18] <Slart> megatill: hmm.. looking at your command.. you have ./unreal start in there.. that might be the problem.. ./ would be some kind of current path thingy.. try making it into an absolute path
[01:18] <IdleOne> !ohmy | perlmonkey
[01:18] <ubotu> perlmonkey: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:18] <Slart> ilu: it's great when x won't start and you need to search teh web for how to fix it.. =)
[01:18] <perlmonkey> IdleOne: apologies
[01:19] <megatill> Slart: ok thanks i'll test it

[01:19] <bastid_raZor> IdleOne,  like tits is a bad word.. what a pansy
[01:19] <perlmonkey> true
[01:19] <Slart> ilu: hehe.. how do you watch flash movies in console? some kind of frame buffer player?
[01:19] <perlmonkey> look at my great big tits
[01:20] <togr> I understand researchers who work with great tits have problems finding relevant material on the web
 i download stuff via elinks... then i use 'mplayer' that starts a little window for the movie file
[01:20] <perlmonkey> maybe man tits are less offensive to IdleOne than the feathered tits
[01:20] <moDumass> hey all how do i get my ktorrent to show the "status"  and "files" tab in the bottom of the GUI like it used to?
[01:20] <IdleOne> !ops

[01:22] <efaistos_> do you know if beryl can run on a matrox millenium g450 dual ?
[01:22] <ilu> i think i will recommend some people i know to download ubuntu instead of upgrading to windows vista
[01:23] <ilu> vista costs alot and is no real change from xp... i mean the windows concept is already invented
[01:23] <perlmonkey> ok, I'm having problems with my kmail..its gone teets up and I dunno why.
[01:23] <Slart> efaistos_: I think beryl runs on most graphics cards.. don't know if it can handle *all* the bling bling that beryl provides but I think it will run
[01:23] <togr> anyone know how to suppress join/leave messages in xchat?
[01:23] <IdleOne> togr, in the preferrences
[01:23] <veni> hi, hi, i have a very imp data in my harddisk which is lvm partition of my existing harddisk
[01:23] <ilikec0ws> efaistos_, I thought beryl only supports nvidia ati and intels
[01:23] <ilikec0ws> efaistos_, Ask in #beryl
[01:24] <Slart> ilu: I just got myself a small laptop with vista included..  it's pretty nice, but I don't think it's worth the money.. but it's still nice
[01:24] <veni> now I am not able to mount that particular harddisk partitiion
[01:24] <efaistos_> ilikec0ws: nodoby anszwering there
[01:24] <togr> IdleOne, I *have* looked there -- could you be more specific please?
[01:24] <perlmonkey> nvidia are fine cards, but I dunno about these cheaper manufacturers using nvidia chipsets
[01:24] <veni> need help in recovering the data from that harddisk partition
[01:24] <IdleOne> togr, let me look...
[01:24] <ilikec0ws> efaistos_, I think its only on them card though, but dont take that as  a certain :)
[01:24] <perlmonkey> veni: testdisk is your friend
[01:25] <veni> perlmonkey, i dint get what u r saying
 dont know man i used it for a couple of months and i just switched to 'windows classic' mode in the end. and that got me thinking that microsoft has hit some kind of wall... i mean the concept is already invented... there is nothing more to do
[01:25] <perlmonkey> veni: try testdisk and photorec if you want to recover data from a borked parition, its not guaranteed, could be a last resort
[01:26] <veni> perlmonkey, i dont have any command like testdisk
[01:26] <IdleOne> togr, I cant seem to find it either. try asking in #xchat
[01:26] <ilikec0ws> ilu, I actually like the windows interface, its just a shame its like a memory hogger
[01:26] <badkitty> Wow beryl with twinview rocks
[01:26] <perlmonkey> veni: install it
 for example. i think alot of corporations will argue in the same way as me
[01:26] <ilu> they will think like this "we can stay on xp with office 03'
[01:26] <streather> hey guys
[01:26] <perlmonkey> openoffice matches msoffice eh
[01:27] <Slart> ilu: yes, I switched to classic mode too.. to save some battery time.. but not because I didn't like aero or anything... I can only compare it windows 2000.. but this is getting off topic.. back to ubuntu
[01:27] <ilu> OOo rox... works for all my tasks...
[01:27] <asc__> Anybody getting checksum mismatches on the flashplayer-nonfree package?
[01:27] <Slart> OOo sucks at handling dates in charts.. just noticed =/
[01:27] <streather> can someone help me with an error i keep getting everytime i go to install something?
 yeah sorry i am not here to bash microsoft or anything...
[01:28] <badkitty> off-hand... does anyone know the best way to make an appliance out of a windows xp environment
[01:28] <togr> IdleOne, found it
[01:28] <Pici> badkitty: ##windows ;)
 i use the calc all the time and thuss far i have had no issues... only some minor stuff...
[01:28] <togr> right-click on channel tab
[01:28] <badkitty> ;-) pici
[01:28] <Pici> asc__: Yes, its a known error, afaik, its being looked at.
[01:28] <asc__> Pici: Thanks.
[01:28] <IdleOne> togr, ty good to know
[01:29] <IdleOne> streather, what is the error
[01:29] <ilu> what command do i use in the terminal to get a listing of all my hardware?
[01:29] <Slart> ilu: yes, same here.. I've used OOo for a year or two.. never ran into an big problems before.. but try making a chart with some dates on the x-axis.. my OOo started eating memory, almost crashed my box before I killed it... tried again and it just does all kinds of weird stuff with my dates..
[01:30] <Pici> ilu: lshw
 you need to install the new ooo... they have fixed alot of bugs
[01:30] <Ind[y] > Can I install gnome-sudoku and glChess without installing the whole gnome-games package (I want to install these two through the package manager)?
 thanks
[01:31] <Slart> ilu: well.. I rarely include dates in my charts so i'll be fine with the repo-version for now... it's nice that they keep fixing things, improving it etc
[01:31] <IdleOne> Ind[y] , seems it is part of the package and wont let you install seperately
[01:32] <IdleOne> Ind[y] , but I might be wrong
[01:32] <Ind[y] > IdleOne: ok :/
 it would not surprise me that small and middle size corporations will switch to ooo in maybe three years when ooo is roughly as powerful as ms office 2003 witch is standard in all corporation work
[01:32] <tmske> Hi, anyone an idea what can be wrong with the powermanagement on my laptop, it's an easynote r1903 (Packard Bell), the powermanager can't see the cpu freq and screen dimming doesn't work either when I switch to battery
[01:33] <Slart> ilu: perhaps.. but OOo still has some way to go when it comes to the advanced stuff.. there are lots of office macros out there written for microsoft office
[01:33] <Slart> ilu: I just wish they would make calc include more math stuff.. so you can use it as a light mode replacement for ..ie.. matlab and such
[01:35] <askand> I have a problem with vnc...when I connect to another uuntu computer with built in "remote desktop" and vncviewer I can see the screen on vncviewer but not changes(I close a folde on the other computer but it doesnt show on vncviewer) is that a bug?

[01:41] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, wpa isn't an issue for me, i have a nice and unsecured network because my other windoze box doesnt support encryption for some reason
[01:41] <IdleOne> !backports > IdleOne
[01:41] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: just checked, it the 511T has the Autheros chipset AR5212
[01:41] <perlmonkey> *Atheros
[01:42] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: ok should be even easier than
[01:42] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: what prob you having?
[01:42] <snipex> i installed kubuntu-desktop package from synaptic and then restarted comp it said kubuntu is loading but my desktop is still GNOME, whys that ?
[01:42] <blubloblu> perlmonkey: it seems to disconnect from the network every 5mins
[01:42] <Ind[y] > Can I download/install PyGTKGlExt through the package manager?
[01:42] <JayRoe> is it possible to uninstall v4l-dvb?
[01:43] <perlmonkey> phew
[01:43] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, i have to click on the network manager to reconnect, very annoying
[01:43] <perlmonkey> :-/
[01:43] <perlmonkey> I can imagine
[01:43] <jdt> hey, does anyone know how to get a tail of messages onto the background of gnome display. I have played with root-portal applet but couldnt get it to work
[01:43] <xipietotec> snipex, change sessions in the options before you login, and set that as your default if you want kubuntu to be the default every time
[01:43] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, i'm assuming it's a driver issue
[01:43] <rixon> Any ideas why I can't suddenly connect encrypted wifi networks?
[01:43] <snipex> ok ty for help ill try
[01:43] <perlmonkey> anything in messages log?
[01:44] <blubloblu> i'm livecding right now
[01:44] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, what log should i look in?
[01:46] <n4t> ciao a tutti
[01:46] <LucianIndy> i keep trying to update my clamav signatures but it keeps saying they are 91 days old. i used sudo clamav-getfiles and it said they were updated but when i load the gui 'clamtk' it says otherwise
[01:46] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: tail -100 /var/log/messages should reveal something
[01:46] <n4t> hi all
[01:46] <n4t> how can I avoid knit: no resume image doing normal boot???
[01:47] <perlmonkey> I have an annoying problem? with my wifi nic whereby it has to be manually taken down and brought up again before I can use it, doesnt seem to get started on boot up
[01:47] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, a lot of gconfd stuff, and some message handler not found wlan0
[01:48] <Tama00> is it possible to have a PXE install server without running your own DHCP server on the same box
[01:48] <Tama00> because i already got a router that handles the DHCP
[01:48] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: is your /etc/network/interfaces ok?
[01:48] <stefg> n4t: this is no error, but just an info, that it's not a resume from hibernation, but a normal boot. nothing to worry abut
[01:49] <RGautier> DHCP should be independent of PXE
[01:49] <crusty> #ubuntu-de
[01:50] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29637/
[01:50] <n4t> stefg: because it says trying to resume from image ....and after it says that no resume image... I would delete this sort of damaged image
[01:50] <victimsoul> hey people, i'm getting some constant network activity from an unidentiied program (ubuntu feisty 7.1) and i was hoping someone could tell me how to identify it?
[01:51] <KingGhost> p seanw ?
[01:51] <seanw> Hey?
[01:51] <seanw> Can I help?
[01:51] <perlmonkey> phew you have dhcp assigned IP's eh
[01:51] <t2__> hi,  can someone tell me how to get the best drivers for old ATI Radeon 7200 ?   I want it to support 1440*900 resolution like it does in Windows.  thanks
[01:51] <KingGhost> yeah
[01:51] <KingGhost> whois :)
[01:51] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: I wonder if it's a dhcp problem
[01:52] <t2__> i read online that fglrx is not supporting of this old card
[01:52] <KingGhost> ^ ^
[01:52] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, i have a router at home. It seems to be configured right
[01:52] <gjohn> hello
[01:52] <Pici> victimsoul: check out the output of `netstat -tanp`
[01:52] <stefg> n4t: you're misunderstanding this. The kernel looks, if the swap space holds a hibernation image (trying to resume...) then finds there is  none, then just proceeds to boot ... everything is well
[01:52] <victimsoul> thanks pici
[01:52] <gjohn> wubi can install ubuntu server
[01:52] <wers> can I install gentoo ebuilds in ubuntu?
[01:52] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: do you need dhcp option on wifi card?
[01:52] <n4t> stefg: ok thanks
[01:53] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, what do you mean?
[01:53] <gjohn> wubi can install ubuntu server?
[01:53] <perlmonkey> you have dhcp in your interfaces
[01:54] <askand> I have a problem with vnc...when I connect to another uuntu computer with built in "remote desktop" and vncviewer I can see the screen on vncviewer but not changes(I close a folde on the other computer but it doesnt show on vncviewer) is that a bug?
[01:54] <eoshi> hey all
[01:54] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, yes...
[01:54] <eoshi> if youre have an secondhand laptop, and you're not use it. I want to get your laptop
[01:55] <eoshi> I need that laptop to learn more computer, because I'm dont have an computer
[01:55] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: all I can suggest is maybe commenting out dhcp and restarting wifi nic to see if card/connection to LAN remains stable?
[01:55] <n4t> does exist a simple package that allow to see the amount of traffic and to disconnect internet if it is bigger than for example 50 MB
[01:56] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: need to try and narrow down the problem eh
[01:56] <perlmonkey> put in a static IP address
[01:56] <LucianIndy> is it possible to take all the packages I have on my ubuntu and create a ubuntu os installation distro cd that includes those packages?
[01:56] <asc__> Anybody have problems with flash player sound not working?
[01:57] <wers> can gentoo ebuilds be installed on ubuntu?
[01:57] <IdleOne> !cloning | LucianIndy
[01:57] <ubotu> LucianIndy: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[01:57] <perlmonkey> I dont use flash
[01:58] <asc__> Good man.
[01:58] <perlmonkey> everyone nags me to install it, but i dont want commercial software tainting my system
[01:58] <asc__> There's a free version somewhere.
[01:58] <perlmonkey> oh
[01:58] <stefg> !info gnash
[01:58] <ubotu> gnash: free Flash movie player. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.7.2-1build1 (feisty), package size 117 kB, installed size 216 kB
[01:58] <perlmonkey> cool
[01:58] <perlmonkey> I will get gnash
[01:58] <Turbooster> hi
[01:59] <dcordes> hi
[01:59] <LucianIndy> IdleOne, that creates a 32kb text file which will do no good to a computer that does not have an internet connection
[01:59] <perlmonkey> hehe
[01:59] <Turbooster> I have problems with evolution mail
[01:59] <perlmonkey> I have problems with kmail
[01:59] <stefg> who desnt ? :-)
[01:59] <turbo> hm
[01:59] <perlmonkey> I stopped using evolution mail cuz it was so heavy and unstable
[02:00] <turbo> Does evolution-alarm-notify work on a clean install?
[02:00] <perlmonkey> not sure but I see it running often
[02:01] <stefg> ugh, ubuntu might be buggy, but one would expect this to be working
[02:01] <perlmonkey> I've tried to purge my system of evolution stuff but it always pops up in processes still
[02:01] <turbo> and has anybody experienced the problem:
[02:02] <turbo> I cant receive mails from 2 different yahoo accounts at the same time
[02:02] <turbo> but I can't make them be recieved one after another
[02:03] <stefg> turbo: every now and then, i /really/ give evo a try. usually after new ubuntu releases. and *always after ten days or so, i can't stand it no longer and turn back to thunderbird
[02:03] <perlmonkey> oh
[02:03] <turbo> but thunderbird didn't work at all in ubuntu
[02:03] <perlmonkey> maybe the remote server is only allowing one connection
[02:03] <perlmonkey> to stop people overloading it
[02:03] <turbo> tb used to get every mail EVERY time
[02:03] <turbo> meaning 500+ mails every 10 minutes...
[02:03] <stefg> !doesn't work | turbo
[02:03] <ubotu> turbo: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:04] <perlmonkey> haha
[02:04] <turbo> funny the first time. But then...
[02:04] <asc__> turbo: It's never done anything like that for me.
[02:04] <k7> hello
[02:04] <turbo> I love it in windows where it 'just works'
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> thunderbird has not given me any problems
[02:04] <turbo> *tb I mean
[02:04] <d1006> Hey guys - im trying to set up one key on my keyboard to repeat itself until its toggeled off. ie press the key, it repeats the keystroke eveyr .2s or whatever until i press that key again - does anyone know of a way to do this? (basically setting up the key as a turbo key i guess)
[02:05] <perlmonkey> mail clients r a big mystery
[02:05] <stefg> turbo: given the fact that you have problems with all the coomon e-mail clients i suspect your misconfiguring something
[02:05] <turbo> So what mailclient do you suggest?
[02:05] <alesan> hi
[02:05] <blubloblu1> perlmonkey, I'm back, i just disconnected for a sec there. It took ages to reconnect
[02:05] <turbo> connectionwise I don't methinks
[02:05] <n4t> how can I see a version of a package with apt?
[02:05] <stefg> turbo: thunderbird, for Joe Average (not needing exchange compatibility)
[02:06] <turbo> thanks I'm gonna try tb again then!
[02:06] <perlmonkey> blubloblu1: not sure if you saw my last msgs, I was suggesting perhaps see if dhcp is responsible for the problem somehow, try and isolate the problem? maybe comment out dhcp for the nic and assigned static IP and see if LAN access remains ok
[02:07] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, ok, i'll try that
[02:07] <alesan> I have a  "ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] " card in my system. should I install some particular driver to be able to use it? right now I'm in vesa mode
[02:07] <stefg> turbo: some guy set up a thunderbird 2.0 repo for feisty. the standard repos still hold 1.5
[02:07] <perlmonkey> could be a way to rule out a driver problem eh
[02:07] <turbo> Is 2.0 stable?
[02:07] <blubloblu> perlmonkey, do i just put the static ip where dhcp used to be in /etc/network/interfaces?
[02:08] <scoldog_> Can Rhythmbox be controlled over a network?
[02:08] <stefg> turbo, yes... no issues here (or no other issues then 1.5 :-) )
[02:08] <turbo> stefg:Thanks! I'm gonna startexperimenting then... ;)
[02:09] <perlmonkey> blubloblu: you want it looking like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29638/
[02:09] <stefg> turbo, here's the repo for TB 2.0: deb http://ubuntu.iuculano.it feisty thunderbird
[02:10] <freestyler> hi
[02:11] <Belboz99> Hey all, I've got a problem with my xserver, I'm trying to output to a TV and a TV only,  however, once booted the screen just remains black.  I can switch to a terminal session OK, and that displays fine.   gdm restarts without error, yet still my screen is black, ideas?
[02:12] <Nuktar> hi! I was wondering if somebody knows a repository with games. Some games, like freecnc, warsow, UFO Alien Invansion aren't in standart Feisty repos. Thanks in advance.
[02:12] <stefg> Belboz99: the resolution might be set too high, so the TV dosn't sync
[02:13] <perlmonkey> stefg: you're good
[02:13] <perlmonkey> I just got my TV out card working yesterday after much messing, and several hours
[02:14] <perlmonkey> turns out I was using the wrong driver, needed nvidia-flx-new instead of nvidia-flx
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Belboz99: has it worked before (even in windows) and at what res/sync
[02:14] <stefg> which is nvidia-glx, actually
[02:14] <perlmonkey> I very nearly hacked up all my cables too, after seeing lots of posts on the subject advising to link wires up in the svideo/scart connectors
[02:15] <xizdaqrian> Pensacola
[02:15] <Pensacola> xizdaqrian
[02:15] <xizdaqrian> Are you from p'cola?
[02:15] <dev_0> ola everybody
[02:15] <perlmonkey> stefg: that's odd then, I dunno why it suddenly started working when I upgraded to the new driver, all I got on the original driver was black & white picture and some interference
[02:15] <dev_0> can you help me
[02:15] <Pensacola> no I'm not :)
[02:16] <dev_0> I've something problem here
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> dev_0: just ask
[02:16] <IdleOne> dev_0, describe issue and ask a question
[02:16] <xizdaqrian> what's the prob dev?
[02:16] <perlmonkey> stefg: do you use TV-out card? which card?
[02:16] <dev_0> there is something problem with my soundcard
[02:16] <dev_0> I've install all codec and driver but still no sound / mute
[02:17] <IdleOne> !sound | dev_0
[02:17] <stefg> perlmonkey: tho i have an FX5200, i don't use TV out (don't own a TV anymore)
[02:17] <dev_0> !sound
[02:17] <perlmonkey> stefg: ok, same card as me
[02:17] <IdleOne> !alsa | dev_0
[02:17] <xizdaqrian> Have you checked your volume settings?
[02:17] <dev_0> !alsa
[02:17] <IdleOne> is ubotu not working?
[02:17] <ubotu> dev_0: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:17] <dev_0> I've already check all
[02:17] <xizdaqrian> Alsa sometimes starts out mute after activating the drivers
[02:17] <dev_0> everything is good
[02:18] <xizdaqrian> have you used lsmod to see if the drivers loaded?
[02:18] <stefg> !intelhda | xizdaqrian
[02:18] <ubotu> xizdaqrian: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[02:18] <perlmonkey> stefg: is that card you have made by Nvidia or some other firm using the fx5200 chipset? I got a card from XFX and I'm not too impressed by it I must say
[02:18] <dev_0> no I haven't tried yet, but I will
[02:18] <dev_0> how to use lsmod
[02:19] <perlmonkey> man lsmod
[02:19] <xizdaqrian> run sudo lsmod | grep sound or maybe grep alsa
[02:19] <stefg> perlmonkey: some 'i don't remember'-brand. I don't care too much, my video needs are pretty basic
[02:19] <perlmonkey> stefg: seems reasonable
[02:20] <mdmkolbe3> Where can I find the tracker to download ubuntu with bittorent?
[02:20] <perlmonkey> I'm just interested in comparing experiences of fx5200 cards to see if it's worth replacing mine
[02:20] <dev_0> it is listed like this soundcore               8672  2 snd
[02:20] <dev_0> what is that
[02:20] <IdleOne> mdmkolbe, www.ubuntu.com

[02:24] <mdmkolbe3> xizdaqrian: I was not able to find it directly on the web site, maybe I just didn't happen to look in the right place
[02:24] <Teres__> so how do i make my drive ext3?
[02:24] <viden> but you can use that ntfs drive just fine.  ntfs-3g will slow things down though .. just fyi from my experience.  You can read that drive out of the gate just do a sudo apt-get install ntfs-config

[02:24] <beni> Hey my ubuntu server installation is running into Problems, Intel i430vx Chipset, 200Mhz & 64MB ram, the setuproutine doesnt contienue and always restarts due to too few memory ("Swap 0MB, Total 0MB") How can I install Ubuntu anyway??
[02:25] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: do you have installed nvidia-settings?
[02:25] <xizdaqrian> mdm -> it should be right there in the d/l section, lemme' check for you
[02:25] <mkultrix> i had a disk fail on my software raid array, i replaced it, it seemed to boot up fine, how can i check the status of my software raid array?
[02:25] <mkultrix> i have a /dev/md0 for my /home partition
[02:25] <badkitty> beni ... I'm not sure, but can you create a swap, sounds like that owuld help
[02:25] <badkitty> would*
[02:26] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: installing now
[02:26] <asc__> viden: Uh, can you select metacity from the 'session' list in gdm?
[02:26] <stefg> beni: what are you going to use that box for?
[02:26] <grim76> mkultrix: try man mdadm
[02:26] <perlmonkey> mkultrix: cat /proc/mdstat
[02:26] <beni> badkitty: the setup didnt ask for this... i just set up my keyboard scheme and then it searched the hardware and then it loaded the installtion stuff and then it crashes, and showing only "Killed\nKilled\n[...] " on the screen
[02:26] <viden> asc__:   you mean add it as a startup item ?
[02:26] <beni> stefg: file server
[02:26] <beni> I just need SMB and sshd imho
[02:27] <KingGhost> mr_sleeping >
[02:27] <KingGhost> ???
[02:27] <badkitty> beni when you do the partitioning part of the drives (gparted) you should be able to set the  swap partition
[02:27] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: no change :(
[02:27] <KingGhost> where
[02:27] <beni> badkitty: i didnt reach this stage of setup
[02:27] <Teres__> i still cant paste files into the drive
[02:27] <asc__> viden: When the login screen comes up, there's usually a button that lets you select different WMs.
[02:27] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: you want tv out?
[02:27] <Teres__> and i used the g3 thing
[02:27] <whatspy> hi, what is the name of the application that "serves" the ssh protocol ?
[02:27] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: what good is a GUI app when I can't see the GUI?
[02:27] <stefg> beni: although you could try to get along with a minimal install, you'll need more Ram for a fileserver anyway for reasonable performance
[02:27] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: yes
[02:28] <Belboz99> I'm configuring it from an SSH terminal
[02:28] <asc__> viden: Although I have to admit I have no idea how one starts metacity, since it's already installed and I don't think it appears in that list for me.
[02:28] <xizdaqrian> mdmkolbe3 -> Look on this page http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/
[02:28] <Teres__> viden: the g3 thing never worked...i still cant paste files into the drive
[02:28] <mkultrix> ah ok thanks i see active raid5 hdk1[0]  hdi1[4]  hdc[3]  hdg[1]  , so that means its using all 4 of my drives
[02:28] <viden> asc__:  you mean the options button .. yeah the options are gnome and gnome failsafe ... or run the script ... all do the same thing it appears.  Beryl some how screwed up things when i uninstalled it
[02:28] <stefg> beni: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[02:28] <xizdaqrian> You'll find it there
[02:28] <badkitty> beni: are you installing with a cd /dvd?
[02:28] <grim76> whatspy: openssh-server

[02:28] <whatspy> grim76: thx
[02:28] <Teres__> yes
[02:28] <beni> badkitty: cd stefg: before it ran win95(!!!)
[02:28] <Teres__> i just did that
[02:28] <asc__> viden: Okay. How are you starting metacity?
[02:28] <ffm> asc__, metacity is gnome, it is selected from the options menu under sessions.
[02:28] <viden> Teres__:  start it and check the 2 boxes ... then you will have write
[02:28] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: perhaps you have the wrong driver installed or selected in X config
[02:29] <ffm> asc__, at the login dialog, that is.
[02:29] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: wouldn't I get an error output in that situation?
[02:29] <dev_0> perlmonkey, how about my sound
[02:29] <viden> asc__:  well at the moment i have to start it from the terminal to get my window title bars .. but it has a failure of some sort and i cant close that terminal
[02:29] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I have an nvidia card with TV out and without a hitch, I didnt need to do anything to get TV out
[02:29] <asc__> ffm: Isn't it just the window manager for gnome? Or something.
[02:30] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: I've got the xorg set to nvidia for the driver, I used the driver from Nvidia's website
[02:30] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: maybe, maybe not tho.
[02:30] <asc__> viden: Is the terminal in X?
[02:30] <badkitty> beni: ok so you burned the server CD and your trying to install it via the CD and it freezes/crashes after you select your keyboard?
[02:30] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: same as me
[02:30] <viden> asc__:  yes
[02:30] <ffm> !metacity | asc__
[02:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about metacity - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:30] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I used the driver in Ubuntu tho
[02:30] <viden> Teres__:   so taht will be sudo ntfs-config
[02:30] <ffm> asc__, yes, it is
[02:30] <badkitty> Belboz99: Whats the problem?
[02:30] <Belboz99> badkitty: black screen when GUI is loaded
[02:30] <beni> badkitty: it doesnt freeze its kinda infinite loop. the installer has too few memory, so it shuts down something and then tries to restart exactly the same program again, and exits it again...
[02:31] <perlmonkey> and error msg about TV out
[02:31] <viden> asc__:  i have to leave the terminal window open because if i close it metacity dies with it
[02:31] <Belboz99> badkitty: it's running alright, but with no display output
[02:31] <yoka1> i need to format with vfat a partition with block size of 4096, i get a segmentation fault error. suggestions?
[02:31] <Teres__> thnx
[02:31] <beni> the whole process is visible in the syslog (alt+f4 or f5 afaik)
[02:31] <Teres__> thats gr8
[02:31] <viden> Teres__:  np
[02:31] <badkitty> beni..hmmmm...
[02:31] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: maybe the resolution is set too high? just a thought
[02:31] <mdmkolbe3> xizdaqrian: yes, that is one of the links that Pici gave me, and I'll use it.  But I didn't see that linked anywere from the main web page.  Was there a link from the main web page that I missed?  (If there isn't there ought to be.  Otherwise the only way to find it is to ask here ;-))
[02:31] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: 640x480 too high?
[02:32] <Belboz99> I've also tried the next two up from there
[02:32] <perlmonkey> should be ok
[02:32] <perlmonkey> unless your screen is like real tiny
[02:32] <asc__> viden: okay. This probably isn't what you want to do. But one thing you *can* do is disable GDM (install sysv-rc-conf and just uncheck its' little box). The make a file ~/.xsession containing the lines '#/bin/bash' and 'metacity'. At that point, it will boot to a terminal, you can log in, and running 'startx' should start metacity.
[02:32] <Belboz99> nah, it's like a 27" or so TV
[02:32] <asc__> viden: Another possibility is that I'm tripping hard.
[02:32] <perlmonkey> ok
[02:32] <asc__> The == Then
[02:32] <viden> asc__:  lmmfao
[02:32] <badkitty> Beni...wait... you want to run ubuntu server... there shouldn't be a gui
[02:32] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: do you have AV channel selected on TV?
[02:32] <stefg> beni: have you tried an expert install. you'll like to get rid of cups, acpi, and other useless stuff for that machine, which eats up memory. And i'd use 6.06 LTS server anyway, if all yu want is a stupid samba server
[02:33] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: the thing is the command line and everything else but the GUI display as normal
[02:33] <viden> asc__:  can i just go edit the xsession file to fix this ?
[02:33] <beni> badkitty: ubuntu server 7.04 downloaded yesterday. there is no real gui, just in the beginning ubuntu logo and small menu
[02:33] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I had the same problem sometimes with blank black screen on TV, restarting X solved it tho
[02:33] <perlmonkey> strange
[02:34] <badkitty> what problem is belboz having?
[02:34] <perlmonkey> so its an X problem for sure eh
[02:34] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: I've restarted X about 20 times now
[02:34] <beni> stefg: isnt 7.04 better than 6.06? i always thought that way :-)
[02:34] <asc__> viden: Well, the xsession file is useless if GDm is running. But that's basicly what I'm suggesting.
[02:34] <perlmonkey> badkitty: he's got no X output to his TV screen on his TV-out nvidia card, but shell displays ok
[02:34] <Belboz99> badkitty: blank screen when GUI is loaded on Standard-Def TV
[02:34] <asc__> viden: Unless there's more xsession files somewhere that I don't know about. Which there probably are.
[02:34] <badkitty> beni: 6.06 had long term support, I'd stick to that one
[02:34] <viden> asc__:  could i just go to term2 and kill gdm and then edit the file ?
[02:35] <viden> asc__:  currently i dont have a file on my system called .xsession
[02:35] <cr3> do u kno xero brothers?
[02:35] <viden> at least that i can find
[02:35] <stefg> beni: 'better' is a relative term. and most of the improvements tend to consume ram, and aren't noticable on a machine without a GUI
[02:35] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I would suspect it might be the driver you know, can you try the Ubuntu driver perhaps?
[02:35] <Belboz99> tried that too
[02:35] <reen> iiii
[02:35] <perlmonkey> ok
[02:35] <asc> viden: Yeah, that would work. If you're just doing it once, you can probably just 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' and 'startx metacity'
[02:35] <badkitty> belboz: hmm never connected a tv with ubuntu before....
[02:36] <viden> asc: cool
[02:36] <Spaceman3750_> Anyone else have any suggestions on how to get sound from flash working in FireFox?
[02:36] <badkitty> belboz: this is after you installed the nvidia driver?
[02:36] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I'm going to check my xorg.conf config to see if theres anything
[02:36] <cr3> do u kno xero brothers?
[02:36] <Belboz99> badkitty: it's an HTPC with MythTV
[02:37] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: there's nothing, all seems to be handled by the driver, and the settings for picture quality on TV are handled by nvidia-settings
[02:37] <stefg> Spaceman3750_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#head-f036b17c3150dd72f58d952a0e13094568c9f92e
[02:37] <badkitty> Belboz: Ahh nice.. did you try attaching a monitor instead of the TV to make sure it is an out-put problem rather than an X problem?
[02:37] <asc> Spaceman3750_:The last thing you might try that I know of is getting rid of ~/.mplayer/plugins/lib-whatever-so and installing gnash (which is apparently the open-source version of flash)
[02:38] <Belboz99> badkitty: I suppose I could try that, I just hate lugging CRT's around the house :-P
[02:38] <y66> hello at all
[02:38] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: cool dude! you're running mythtv? I have just finishing setting up my dedicated master backend, I just installed the nvidia card yesterday, had some probs with the drivers and it took me 2 hours
[02:39] <Paul^> help ! help ! I have an emergency! I'm installing ubuntu, and it's asking for a hostname now! and I can't think of an original hostname! help :(
[02:39] <Paul^> =p
[02:39] <badkitty> belboz: haha true, but atleast you would be likely to know if it is an X thing or a difference between the x output and the tv
[02:39] <Paul^> it's a server, dns/gateway/proxy/dhcp, btw
[02:39] <stefg> Belboz99: so try to 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and use *only* 640x480 at 50 Hz as reso. if that works, you're having a sync issue
[02:40] <asc> Paul^: Mintaka
[02:40] <Frogzoo> Paul^: abandon all hope - you're doomed
[02:40] <perlmonkey> Belboz99: I got the geoforce fx5200 card (XFX make) I'm not that impressed by it I must say, would be interested to hear how you get on the card you bought later
[02:40] <asc> Actually, I like Frogzoo's answer better
[02:40] <Paul^> yeah, but can hostnames contain spaces? it's a tad long for a hostname
[02:41] <y66> I have a problem with Ubuntu server Sparc version....
[02:41] <asc> You can probably use hyphens as spaces. I do that for file names.
[02:41] <perlmonkey> hostnames should not contain spaces
[02:41] <y66> who can contact me to help me?
[02:41] <Paul^> I'll go for asc's one then )
[02:41] <Paul^> =)
[02:41] <perlmonkey> we have a sun user in our midst guys
[02:41] <y66> it's better to talk in private
[02:42] <asc> I'll heat the tar. Pluck a chicken, perlmonkey!
[02:42] <Solaris444> speaking of server versions...
[02:42] <perlmonkey> haha asc
[02:42] <stefg> !pm | y66
[02:42] <ubotu> y66: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[02:42] <Tama00> h
[02:42] <Solaris444> hey guys, the server version...
[02:42] <y66> yes solaris444
[02:42] <Solaris444> what configuration tools are included?
[02:43] <Tama00> i cant get pxe working! my computer gets the dhcp settings then tries to get the tfpt file. its looking for the correct file just the server wont send it!
[02:43] <Tama00> so the laptop keeps getting tftp time out
[02:43] <asc> Solaris444: nano and a lot of .confs I think
[02:43] <Frogzoo> Tama00: try tftp localhost & check your tftpd is serving
[02:43] <SlimeyPete> Solaris444: just the usual debian set. Apt, ifconfig and a /etc full of configuration files.
[02:43] <Solaris444> what is nano?
[02:43] <Solaris444> oh.
[02:43] <Tama00> Frogzoo, okay hold on
[02:43] <Solaris444> damn
[02:44] <mdmkolbe3> Solaris444: nano is a text editor
[02:44] <Solaris444> I was wondering if there is a yast-type interface for ubuntu because I'm getting annoyed at SuSE
[02:44] <y66> solaris444: can you help me with sparc version?
[02:44] <Frogzoo> Solaris444: APT (advance package tool) - interfaces are apt-get & dpkg
[02:44] <Tama00> Frogzoo, yeah it seams to be working
[02:44] <Solaris444> I'm afraid I know nothing about Sparc y66
[02:44] <Paul^> synaptic?
[02:44] <badkitty> Belboz: Myth TV eh, whats the best way to set up your media... NAS?
[02:45] <y66> oh ok thanks solaris444
[02:45] <Solaris444> Frogzoo: yeah I know about the package management tools.  thanks anyway
[02:45] <Tama00> Frogzoo, and i can fetch the file its after
[02:45] <perlmonkey> badkitty: NFS
[02:45] <Frogzoo> Tama00: well wireshark would show you what's happening on the wire
[02:45] <netyire> hello all, been having some problems with mounting a usb device, anyone willing to help?
[02:45] <perlmonkey> badkitty: soft-raid + nfs, never look back
[02:45] <Spaceman3750_> asc, I was gonna try to reinstall FireFox, but it won't let me
[02:45] <jatt> yast is bad
[02:46] <badkitty> !nfs
[02:46] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[02:46] <y66> who can help me to install Ubuntu server sparc version????
[02:46] <Tama00> Frogzoo, how can i work out the problem using wireshark?
[02:46] <asc> Spaceman3750_: The problem probably isn't either firefox or flash. But at that point, I don't know what it could be.
[02:46] <perlmonkey> badkitty: I'm using XFS for filesystem, very stable and fast
[02:46] <Frogzoo> Tama00: filter on 'tftp' & it will show the conversation
[02:46] <netyire> @Chuck
[02:46] <Tama00> Frogzoo, i was using tcpdump -n to show the conversation beforea
[02:46] <perlmonkey> XFS over NFS
[02:46] <Tama00> and it seams my pc is not sending it to the client
[02:47] <Tama00> i think..
[02:47] <perlmonkey> badkitty: are you thinking of running mythtv too dude?
[02:47] <badkitty> perlmonkey: So being mythTV and all I want LOTS of storage with redundancy.. yes I am going to build a pc for mythtv soon
[02:47] <perlmonkey> wow
[02:47] <Frogzoo> Tama00: wireshark will show filenames & stuff, it's a better chance at finding it
[02:47] <ladal> hellow
[02:48] <vikku> Hi all
[02:48] <perlmonkey> badkitty: lots of storage ya, that thing EATS up HDD space like nothing, 2GB per hour
[02:48] <Tama00> Frogzoo, is there any common reasons why it wont send?
[02:48] <netyire> @chuck
[02:48] <Tama00> Frogzoo, ill have to disconnect of the net to try it
[02:48] <netyire> anyone can help with mounting a usb device?
[02:48] <Tama00> Frogzoo, cause my router has a dhcp server and it conflicts with that if im on the net and trying to install
[02:48] <Frogzoo> netyire: plug it in :)
[02:48] <netyire> :D, yup
[02:48] <jabba_> hello
[02:48] <perlmonkey> badkitty: have you got a card or decided on one for your frontend TV out?
[02:48] <badkitty> perlmonkey: but from what I have heard you can have multiple servers and clients for mythtv to push from? so is it best to have a seperate storage with raid or have it attached to the pc
[02:48] <netyire> works the first time, but on the second time it doesn't mount
[02:49] <viden> acs:  that didnt work .. i cant edit those xsession or xclient files because they dont seem to exist anywhere on my machine.   Do you know where gnome stores its startup script for each user ?
[02:49] <jabba_> is it possible to "dist-upgrade" from lenny/sid debian to ubuntu?
[02:49] <Frogzoo> Tama00: I'm just saying
[02:49] <netyire> dmesg outputs some stuff, let me post a link
[02:49] <badkitty> perlmonkey: Haven't decided on a card yet... i hear there are a few good ones specifically for linux
[02:49] <stefg> jabba_: no
[02:49] <Tama00> Frogzoo, yeah its cool i just wanna try a few things before i go disconnecting my net again
[02:50] <perlmonkey> badkitty: indeed. I have my mythtv spread out on my LAN across 4 machines, (2 backends, one slave and one master, 3 frontends, one on wifi laptop and one under TV with TV-out card, and my storage and mysql db are on a dedicated server
[02:50] <Tama00> Frogzoo, have a bit of a line up of problems to solve so i dont have to keep reconnecting and disconnecting..
[02:50] <jabba_> stefg, so best way is backing up the home-dir and reinstall the root?
[02:50] <viden> Anyone know where x stores its user startup scripts ?
[02:50] <stefg> jabba_: yes
[02:50] <badkitty> perlmonkey: I'll have to get in touch with you when I set mine up then
[02:50] <perlmonkey> cool
[02:50] <jabba_> ok... then ubuntu has to wait... :(
[02:50] <badkitty> perlmonkey: Pm me your email?
[02:50] <Frogzoo> Tama00: use a fixed IP so you can disable the router's dhcp then
[02:51] <perlmonkey> i am always hear so you can always find me
[02:51] <perlmonkey> always same nick
[02:51] <Tama00> Frogzoo, yeah i not actually allowed to touch the router its the next door neighbours lol
[02:51] <perlmonkey> if you register for Freenode you can leave memo msgs
[02:51] <KuHlii> hey by default does ubuntu have an etc/rc.d directory?
[02:51] <Frogzoo> perlmonkey: have you compared the RH clustered file system & XFS ?
[02:51] <Tama00> yeah im so poor i leech the internet of my next door neighbour haha
[02:52] <badkitty> ok.. im out for the night, later
[02:52] <perlmonkey> Frogzoo: I don't know nothing about RH, my back ground is really only Debian before Ubuntu
[02:52] <perlmonkey> I will tell you this tho guys, Ubuntu is the no1 best distro for setting up mythtv
[02:53] <perlmonkey> its so much easier
[02:53] <minimec> Hi folks. I have a Motorola mobile phone that I can plug to the computer via USB. Shouldn't a device node like /dev/ttyACM0 be created when I plug in th USB Device?
[02:53] <perlmonkey> bah still cant access kmail
[02:54] <perlmonkey> minimec: it should ya
[02:54] <perlmonkey> but only if the hardware is recognised
[02:55] <perlmonkey> else your sys will just go "wtf is that...*shrug*" and ignore it
[02:55] <minimec> perlmonkey: Fact is, that I have no /dev/ttyACM0 device in my /dev. I can plug the phone, dmesg shows me, that it is recognised properly...
[02:55] <perlmonkey> cool
[02:55] <m1r> minimec, try: moto4lin
[02:55] <perlmonkey> are you sure that's what the device is called tho?
[02:56] <Spik1> I have a problem. I'm Tribooting on an intel macbook with rEFIt. Just installed 7.0.4. When i choose the mac partition it boots mac just fine. However, when I choose the windows or the ubunty partition, they both boot grep. Furthermore my up and down arrows dont work during the initial stages of the boot, so i cant even select windows when presented with choices. (since i cant move, it goes with the first hilighted choice, Ubuntu
[02:56] <perlmonkey> I've noticed in past some weird device names
[02:56] <saint-takeshi> hey, anyone know how to make wine use a better DirectX?
[02:56] <minimec> m1r: That's what I am trying ;) I want to connect my A780 with moto4lin.
[02:57] <perlmonkey> damnit
[02:57] <perlmonkey> I gotta get my ass in gear and do some work
[02:57] <perlmonkey> back laters guys, will have to manage without me for rest of the day
[02:57] <minimec> m1r: Could there be a problem with the mass storage mode I have in the Motorola A780?
[02:57] <Belboz99> perlmonkey: I got it running!
[02:57] <Belboz99> damn
[03:00] <dondong> anyone here play american army(AA)?
[03:01] <ilu> what that?
[03:01] <dondong> a 3d game
[03:01] <ilu> games are boring
[03:01] <ilu> btw does it work to play pc games on linux?
[03:01] <stefg> !games
[03:01] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[03:01] <dondong> iv download one pack,but dont  know how to install
[03:02] <stefg> !software
[03:02] <ubotu> A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents
[03:02] <ilu> uh i dont like games anyway so i wont go there
[03:02] <dondong> 'coz there is no .run files
[03:03] <SlimeyPete> dondong: what files are there?
[03:03] <dondong> some folders
[03:03] <dahmind> Hi
[03:03] <dondong> .ini
[03:03] <stefg> !cedega | saint-takeshi
[03:03] <ubotu> saint-takeshi: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[03:03] <SlimeyPete> erm, .ini is a text file. Not a game.
[03:03] <SlimeyPete> you sure you downloaded the right thing?
[03:03] <dahmind> I've installed ubuntu on an HP machine and after a reboot I got error 17 with grub. Anyone any idea's?
[03:04] <minimec> m1r: I had to switch from Mass Storage Mode to Modem Mode. I have my /dev/ttyACM0 now ;)
[03:04] <stefg> dahmind: have you installed to the internal disk?
[03:04] <dahmind> stefg: yes
[03:04] <stefg> dahmind: running from Live CD now on that very machine?
[03:04] <dahmind> stefg: dual boot with windows XP pro sp2
[03:05] <dahmind> no, i'm at work
[03:05] <dahmind> stefg: what's error 17?
[03:05] <stefg> dahmind: the problem is that grub doesn't find its config file ( /boot/grub/menu.lst)
[03:06] <Spaceman3750_> Why can't I uninstall FireFox?
[03:06] <dondong> iv install an old version of this game which was easy to install coz it has a .run file,but this one doesnt
[03:06] <stefg> dahmind: so if you run from Live CD you should be able to fix that... sometimes the BIOS juggles around drive numbers, so grub gets confused
[03:06] <Spaceman3750_> It tells me something else is relying on it
[03:06] <Spaceman3750_> But what?
[03:06] <dahmind> stefg: Ok. live-cd and then?
[03:07] <gnomefreak> Spaceman3750_: because of what depends on it.
[03:07] <z999> hi
[03:07] <ilu> hey mate
[03:08] <stefg> dahmind: no use in expalining now, if you aren't at the machine.. it's a quick walkthrouh, but you won't remember. So come back from a Live CD session on that machine
[03:08] <gnomefreak> Spaceman3750_: yelp and alot of other gnome apps will be removed as well and most of them are needed. this will change in gutsy (we are working on it alteast)
[03:08] <dahmind> stefg: thnx. I just noticed a post on gentoo forums. I must select the drive as first boot not my cd-rom.
[03:08] <dahmind> stefg: thnx
[03:08] <mattycoze1> hay ppl, can someone help me get linblock to work?

[03:10] <z999> thx
[03:12] <mattycoze1> does anyone know how to use linblock?
[03:13] <Frogzoo> mattycoze1: what is that?
[03:13] <mattycoze1> supposed to be an automatic script for downloading IP tables to be blocked
[03:13] <mattycoze1> ... http://dessent.net/linblock/
[03:15] <LucianIndy> mattycoze1, its a script so you have to download it and chmod it to 755
[03:15] <LucianIndy> then you just run it
[03:15] <Frogzoo> mattycoze1: sounds interesting
[03:16] <Frogzoo> not that I run any p2p
[03:16] <mattycoze1> LucianIndy when i download it i can't see the script file anywhere, how come?
[03:17] <LucianIndy> did you download it to your desktop or /home/username_here/
[03:17] <mattycoze1> desktop
[03:17] <mattycoze1> ... that's the default mozilla download directory
[03:18] <Narada> how do you put ftp in passive mode
[03:18] <ikonia> pas
[03:18] <LucianIndy> open a terminal and type navigate to your desktop then type ls -la
[03:19] <brokenthorn> Narada: You mean your ftp client?
[03:19] <leperkhanz> Anyone wanna help me help Feisty find my new SATA drive?
[03:19] <LucianIndy> mattycoze1, if it has a ~ at the end of it just use this command 'mv filename~ filename' without the ' '
[03:19] <leperkhanz> The bios sees it, but I don't know how to make Ubuntu see it.
[03:20] <stefg> leperkhanz: type sudo fdsik -l in a terminal. is it listed there?
[03:20] <stefg> sudo fdisk -l that is
[03:20] <afief> Anybody here who knows a good Streetfighter/Tekken/Mortal Kombat style game with online multiplayer?
[03:21] <LucianIndy> !anyone | afief
[03:21] <ubotu> afief: 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?
[03:21] <mattycoze1> LucianIndy, that's Odd the file isn't anywhere despite the fact that i downloaded it
[03:21] <stefg> !games | afief
[03:21] <ubotu> afief: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[03:21] <PainAuple> Hello
[03:21] <LucianIndy> mattycoze1, you couldn't see it in the terminal?
[03:21] <Frogzoo> !games
[03:21] <leperkhanz> Dunno, there's a lot listed there.
[03:21] <mattycoze1> LucianIndy nope
[03:21] <jatt> xevil
[03:22] <jatt> not sure is multiplayer though
[03:22] <leperkhanz> I'm a little lost.
[03:22] <leperkhanz> :(
[03:22] <LucianIndy> i just downloaded it and i see it on my desktop
[03:22] <PainAuple> Quick question: Can Ubuntu be installed on a Mac relatively easily?
[03:22] <Frogzoo> !aspergers
[03:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aspergers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:22] <wedontneed> hi iam searching an app. like frontpage for ubuntu does anyone know that?
[03:22] <ikonia> PainAuple: intel or power pc ?
[03:22] <mattycoze1> LucianIndy is there a command i could just use to search the drive for the file?
[03:22] <mattycoze1> like grep?
[03:22] <stefg> !paste | leperkhanz, so paste the output here->
[03:22] <ikonia> mattycoze1 find
[03:22] <leperkhanz> I already have 5 drives in there and multiple partitions....
[03:23] <LucianIndy> sudo locate linblock.pl
[03:23] <leperkhanz> !paste
[03:23] <Frogzoo> mattycoze1: locate is way faster
[03:23] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:23] <ikonia> LucianIndy: the desktop is in ~/Desktop
[03:23] <Frogzoo> mattycoze1: oh my bad - yeah, just ls from a terminal will find it
[03:23] <novell123> i have a question... maybe little stupid... i want to know what ubuntu has more than debian? or what debian has more ubuntu?... scuse me for the language but i'm not english
[03:23] <Narada> brokenthorn: what's a good graphical ftp client
[03:23] <leperkhanz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29640/
[03:23] <ikonia> novell123: they are maintained by different people
[03:24] <ikonia> novell123: so they are based on the same iniital programs just packaged together in different ways
[03:24] <stefg> leperkhanz: so if /you/ lost track of what's going on in your box, how could you expect anyone else on the other end of an IRC get it back for you ? :-)
[03:24] <tanlaan> how do I do a distro upgrade from CL?
[03:24] <brokenthorn> Narada: Everyone thinks it's gftp AFAIK
[03:24] <wedontneed> hi iam searching an app. like frontpage for ubuntu does anyone know that?
[03:24] <ikonia> tanlaan: man apt-get
[03:24] <novell123> ikonia, but why do you prefer ubuntu than debian?
[03:24] <ikonia> novell123: doesn't matter - its just my opinion
[03:24] <leperkhanz> well, I was hoping there was a "search for new hard drive" button some where.
[03:24] <leperkhanz> :)
[03:25] <ikonia> leperkhanz: why do you need to search for a new harddisk ?
[03:25] <brokenthorn> Narada: But IMHO there's no better ftp client than a console client, like there is no better gui irc client like irssi or weechat, etc
[03:25] <ikonia> leperkhanz: do you not know if you've put one in or not ?
[03:25] <leperkhanz> I just put in a new SATA drive, and it's not showing up anywhere.
[03:25] <tanlaan> well now, I have a problem
[03:25] <ikonia> leperkhanz: have you put a file system on it ?
[03:25] <leperkhanz> Umm...
[03:25] <leperkhanz> no.
[03:25] <xyz123> How do i set up mutt for sending email outside the localhost realm?
[03:25] <ikonia> leperkhanz: there you go then
[03:25] <leperkhanz> It doesn't show up anywhere in Ubuntu.
[03:25] <ikonia> xyz123: mutt isn't an smtp relay
[03:25] <ikonia> leperkhanz: because you've not put a file system on it
[03:26] <tanlaan> I am running 6.06 LTS, but I want to upgrade to 7.04, when I do "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" it finds no packages to install
[03:26] <leperkhanz> Is there a wizard somewhere to do that?
[03:26] <ikonia> tanlaan: because you don't upgrade from 6.0.6 to 7.04
[03:26] <stefg> leperkhanz: it'
[03:26] <ikonia> 7.04 is a non LTS distro
[03:26] <stefg> leperkhanz: it's /dev/sdb
[03:26] <leperkhanz> I had that feeling.
[03:26] <PainAuple> ikonia: A friend of mine wants to try putting a Linux partition on one of her machines. She has both and intel and a power pc
[03:26] <leperkhanz> :)
[03:26] <xyz123> ikonia, ok how do i set up exim4/mutt for sending mail outside the localhost realm then?
[03:26] <stefg> leperkhanz: sudo cfdisk /dev/sdb
[03:26] <tanlaan> ikonia: So because I burned and installed 6.06 to my drive I'm fucked over for upgrading to 7.04?
[03:27] <leperkhanz> will that make it a big fat32?
[03:27] <ikonia> xyz123 you need to tell xime as an SMTP relay
[03:27] <leperkhanz> what will that do?
[03:27] <ikonia> tanlaan: there is no reason to use that language
[03:27] <ikonia> !language > tanlaan
[03:27] <stefg> leperkhanz: start the partitioner for the new drive
[03:27] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Try gparted, it's in a GUI
[03:27] <leperkhanz> sweet.
[03:27] <ikonia> PainAuple its quite straight forward, although the PPC distro is now community maintained
[03:27] <xyz123> ikonia, would you care to explain it further, i would realy appriciate it
[03:27] <leperkhanz> I like the sound of a GUI.
[03:27] <Slart> tanlaan: problems updating?
[03:27] <tanlaan> ikonia: I apologize  for the language
[03:27] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Hehe :)
[03:28] <tanlaan> slart: apparently?
[03:28] <Slart> tanlaan: can't upgrade using the update-manager?
[03:28] <leperkhanz> Is gparted in the system menu somewhere?
[03:28] <ikonia> xyz123 you need to join an exim help channel or read the exim guide on https://help.ubuntu.com - you basiclly need to configure exim to act as an internet SMTP server then tell mutt to use that
[03:28] <tanlaan> slart: nvm
[03:28] <tanlaan> slart: apparently either I or the system was being ignorant
[03:29] <tanlaan> slart: now that I retyped the same thing for the third time, it will allow me to upgrade
[03:29] <CaptainM> leperkhanz, nope, it is in the repo's though
[03:29] <tanlaan> ikonia: thank you for your time, I hope you have a great day =] 
[03:29] <ikonia> tanlaan: welcome
[03:29] <PainAuple> ikonia: Ok, thanks.
[03:29] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Yes
[03:29] <Slart> tanlaan: hehe.. that's what I like about computers.. reliable and predictable =)
[03:29] <tanlaan> slart: haha, well have a nice day =] 
[03:29] <ziBam> My keyboard doesnt work duing the first and second stages of grub. Any idea how to fix (Macbook intel)
[03:30] <ikonia> grub doesn't work on intel mac
[03:30] <ziBam> so what should i do?
[03:30] <stefg> !info elilo
[03:30] <ubotu> elilo: Bootloader for systems using EFI-based firmware. In component main, is optional. Version 3.6-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 120 kB, installed size 412 kB (Only available for i386 ia64)
[03:30] <ikonia> ziBam: use a compatible boot loader
[03:30] <ilu> skype seems to work pretty fine for me
[03:30] <stefg> ziBam: see ubotus message for elilo
[03:31] <xyz123> ikonia, thanks
[03:31] <ziBam> ikonia: Well, im using rEFIt which is a bootloader that people have used for that, but grub boots when i choose windows too, how do i disable or switch grub?
[03:32] <ikonia> ziBam: you shouldn't have installed grub
[03:32] <viden> where does gnome keep its startup script ie for normal and failsafe launch ?
[03:32] <mattycoze1> kk i give up with that idea...
[03:32] <ikonia> ziBam: your not using erfit - or grub wouldn't be booting
[03:33] <leperkhanz> wow gparted is sweet.
[03:33] <ikonia> we know
[03:33] <leperkhanz> much better than any windows tool I've seen.
[03:34] <FuM-Lapto> Can someone help me out real quick?
[03:34] <leperkhanz> Just like that I got a 300gb Fat32 drive kickin' it gangster style.
[03:34] <ziBam> ikonia: So im sorry to be bothersome, and not to knowledgable, but then how do i use erfit?
[03:34] <mattycoze1> how about with this - i'm having problems installing moblock; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29642/
[03:34] <leperkhanz> thanks guys!
[03:34] <ikonia> ziBam you've been sent a link from stefg detailing options and help urls
[03:34] <leperkhanz> I'm going to be an EVEN MORE vocal Ubuntu fan now.  If that's possible.
[03:35] <ikonia> leperkhanz: probably best you keep quiet as it looks bad if you don't know what your doing and start spouting off stuff
[03:35] <FurryNemesis> FuM, what's up?
[03:35] <Tama00> whats the command to remove packages?
[03:35] <LurkerXXX123> Hi, I want to use Ubuntu server on my laptop, but it's got a Pentium M and so it hangs after install.  Is there an easy workaround?  ( this is the bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/71594 )
[03:35] <ltibor65> Hi guys! Do anyone use beryl? How can I set different wllpapers on the variing sides of the cube?
[03:35] <ikonia> Tama00: apt-get remove
[03:35] <PriceChild> LurkerXXX123, does that bug mention a workaround in the comments?
[03:35] <wzw> Hi, i have a Powerbook G4, i will install ubuntu 7.04, can i have the both two osx and ubuntu or just ubuntu?
[03:35] <Tama00> ikonia, yay
[03:35] <leperkhanz> ikonia: I know enough.  I've spent years working on windows systems, which is hugely inferior I am rapidly coming to realize.
[03:35] <FuM> FurryNemesis, I disabled an Nvidia driver in my Ubuntu. Now I can't even login because a blackscreen popups up then it reverts back to the login scree.
[03:35] <stefg> Ich murkse hier schon den ganzen Tag daran rum, auf einem AthlonXP/nForce2 system mit Nvidia FX5200 und Nvidia-glx 100.14.11 suspend to ram hinzukriegen (Desktop-Maschine) kein howto funzt. Noch jamnd 'ne Idee?
[03:35] <Tama00> do you know if i really need xinetd and inetd?
[03:35] <jatt> !german
[03:35] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[03:35] <Tama00> cause i dont think i need them services
[03:36] <LurkerXXX123> PriceChild: only using an alternate CD to boot
[03:36] <Tama00> and would prefer not to have them
[03:36] <ikonia> leperkhanz: thats the sort of nonsense talk that sounds silly
[03:36] <FurryNemesis> FuM, the cli login screen?
[03:36] <LurkerXXX123> that didn't seem to work for some folks
[03:36] <asc> wzw: It's possibly to have both, but I couldn't tell you how to go about doing that.
[03:36] <PriceChild> LurkerXXX123, well have you tried?
[03:36] <FuM> FurryNemesis, DI?
[03:36] <LurkerXXX123> yes, it didnt' work for me
[03:36] <mattycoze1> would anyone help me install Moblock??? please look at my paste  - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29642/
[03:36] <viden> where does gnome keep its startup script ie for normal and failsafe launch ?
[03:36] <ikonia> mattycoze1: what ubuntu version are you using
[03:37] <mattycoze1> ikonia fiesty 7.04
[03:37] <FurryNemesis> FuM, can you login and get to a command prompt on that screen?
[03:37] <stefg> jatt: thanks, missed right channel
[03:37] <leperkhanz> ikonia: I'm going to have to disagree with you.  Ubuntu is vastly superior to Windows in a myriad of ways.  Most of them immediately obvious to me at least.
[03:37] <ikonia> leperkhanz could you name three please
[03:37] <wzw> asc: ok, do ubuntu detect all mac hardware (wifi, bluetooth, mouse...)
[03:37] <leperkhanz> Anyway, thanks again.
[03:37] <wzw> asc
[03:37] <FuM> FurryNemesis, No I cannot. I can't get into my Desktop at all.
[03:37] <wzw> asc: sound too
[03:37] <leperkhanz> Beryl, gparted, reliability.
[03:37] <leperkhanz> that was easy.
[03:37] <ikonia> leperkhanz nope
[03:37] <FurryNemesis> FuM, that's ok, you don't need to get to it to re-enable the driver
[03:37] <ikonia> that was pathetic
[03:38] <ikonia> mattycoze1: what repo is mblock-nfq in
[03:38] <FurryNemesis> FuM, you just need to be logged in at that command line screen
[03:38] <leperkhanz> free, foss, fast?
[03:38] <ikonia> mattycoze1: it looks like the version your getting has dependencies that are newer than fesity
[03:38] <ikonia> leperkhanz again - just random words
[03:38] <leperkhanz> no 3 specific ways that Ubuntu is pummeling Windows into the ground.
[03:38] <FuM> FurryNemesis, The Recovery mode?
[03:38] <onechard> wzw sure does running just peachy on macbook pro 17
[03:39] <ikonia> leperkhanz utter nonsense
[03:39] <leperkhanz> That's a total of six.  I hope that's enough.
[03:39] <mattycoze1> ikonia that sounds about right, the repository is an online one
[03:39] <ikonia> leperkhanz hence why you should not be advocating linux
[03:39] <ikonia> mattycoze1 spot on
[03:39] <ikonia> mattycoze1 that makes sense
[03:39] <ikonia> mattycoze1 is the repo even an ubuntu one ?
[03:39] <leperkhanz> whatever.  thanks again, I'm outta here, and putting Ubuntu on every machine I can find.
[03:39] <ikonia> mattycoze1 sorry even aimed at ubuntu users
[03:39] <leperkhanz> :P
[03:39] <ikonia> leperkhanz silly silly, but enjoy
[03:39] <FurryNemesis> yep, after it dumps you to that screen, login at the command prompt
[03:39] <capiira> hmmm anyone know how to list dirs and sub dirs and sub files and save to txt from the shell ?
[03:39] <mattycoze1> nah - i think Gentoo
[03:40] <mattycoze1> which sucks!
[03:40] <ikonia> capiira ls -lR >file.txt
[03:40] <ikonia> mattycoze1 gentoo releases are never going to work on ubuntu
[03:40] <capiira> thank you
[03:40] <ikonia> mattycoze1 use repos that point at ubuntu repo's
[03:40] <asc> wzw: I've never tried installing it on one. To the best of my knowledge, PPC isn't as well supported as intel-32, if it's a PPC. Most things should work fine. I'm less sure about bluetooth - wireless has traditionally been a tricky issue.
[03:41] <ikonia> mattycoze1 distributions are not interchangable
[03:41] <mattycoze1> ikonia - there is no such thing :(, the reason why i've been trying to get it to work is because i need an p2p IP blocker like peerguardian
[03:41] <FuM> FurryNemesis, I'm at the Terminal Emulator.
[03:41] <ikonia> mattycoze1: contact the package maintainer and ask him to package it for ubuntu
[03:41] <mattycoze1> and i've been told that peerguardian had been outdated by this
[03:41] <ikonia> mattycoze1: no problem, just contact the maintainer
[03:41] <xoqa> how do you define which login manager to use? is there one specific file to edit?
[03:41] <mattycoze1> ikonia - hay that sounds like a good idea!
[03:41] <FurryNemesis> FuM, have you got something like FuM@MyComputer $    ?
[03:42] <mattycoze1> lol what's the likelihood they'll do it though?
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> and then a prompt?
[03:42] <ikonia> mattycoze1: simple ones are always the best - if something isn't meant to work, don't try to make it work. Ask the person to fix it
[03:42] <xoqa> /etc/X11/???
[03:42] <asc> xoqa: It's a startup task. If you install sysv-rc-conf, you can use it to enable/disable kdm/gdm/xdm/whatever.
[03:42] <leperkhanz> Wait, I'm back, how do I mount said drive now?
[03:42] <leperkhanz> :P
[03:42] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Yes. fum@fumdesktop:~$
[03:42] <ikonia> mattycoze1 depends what they are. I port all packages I maintain on request if I can, or I ask a collaberator to do it for me
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> excellent
[03:42] <xoqa> asc: but is there a file to edit?
[03:42] <ikonia> leperkhanz: ubuntu is superior it should just work
[03:42] <ikonia> leperkhanz: remember
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> FuM, did you want that driver back?
[03:43] <xoqa> asc: which one if so?
[03:43] <ikonia> leperkhanz: go indtall it on every pc you can
[03:43] <asc> xoqa: There's at least one way to do it without sysv-rc-conf, but I have no idea how.
[03:43] <leperkhanz> it probably will on reboot. :P
[03:43] <leperkhanz> doing that already. :D
[03:43] <ikonia> leperkhanz weak solution
[03:43] <leperkhanz> yeah, I know.
[03:43] <FuM> FurryNemesis, I just want to be able to use my desktop lol.
[03:43] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: edit /etc/fstab
[03:43] <leperkhanz> that's why I'm back here askin'.
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> ok
[03:43] <mattycoze1> ikonia - i'll do it for the ubuntu community :p
[03:43] <leperkhanz> brokenthorn: thnx.
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> FuM, what video card do you have?
[03:43] <leperkhanz> no GUI way?
[03:43] <ikonia> mattycoze1 are you confident packaging and maintaining it ?
[03:43] <LurkerXXX123> How do I generate a new kernal like the one on the DVD, but without  PAE support?
[03:44] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Hmm
[03:44] <FuM> FurryNemesis, 7900gtx
[03:44] <FuM> Nvidia
[03:44] <FurryNemesis> in that case, type  sudo apt-get nvidia-glx
[03:44] <mattycoze1> ikonia nah i meant ask them nicely
[03:44] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: I don't know if there is a front end to /etc/fstab...
[03:44] <ikonia> 14:44 < mattycoze1> ikonia nah i meant ask them nicely
[03:44] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: wait
[03:44] <ikonia> oops
[03:44] <leperkhanz> and I'll probably be doing this often.
[03:44] <ikonia> mattycoze1 good call, I'm sure they will be happy to port it if you are a little patient
[03:44] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: the partition manager from the control panel gives you the option to select the mount point
[03:44] <ikonia> brokenthorn there isn't
[03:45] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: That's where you can set it
[03:45] <leperkhanz> sweet.
[03:45] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Invalid Operation "nvidia-glx"
[03:45] <leperkhanz> thnx.
[03:45] <brokenthorn> ikonia: No?
[03:45] <ikonia> no
[03:45] <brokenthorn> ikonia: impossible
[03:45] <ikonia> brokenthorn: fstab is just a file
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> FuM, oopsy
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> my bad
[03:45] <asc> xoqa: It looks as though there's a symlink to gdm in /etc/X11. It's possible that's what it uses to start the login manager and you could just point it to the one you want to use.
[03:45] <brokenthorn> ikonia: I don't use GUI that much but I do remember what the partition manager offered
[03:45] <FuM> No biggie
[03:45] <sa3iid> salut j'ai un problme, comment je fais pour aller sur ubuntu-fr ? merci !
[03:45] <asc> xoqa: Or maybe it does nothing at all.
[03:45] <onechard> http://freeusenetnews.com/ google is your friend
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> FuM, I meant, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[03:46] <FuM> sa3iid, /join #ubuntu-fr
[03:46] <ikonia> brokenthorn the bottom line is a new disk should be detected by udev trigger a gnome-hal event and it get mounted if it has a usable file system on it
[03:46] <asc> xoqa: Uh, and I just looked in the file /etc/X11/default/display/manager and it appears to be exactly what you're looking for.
[03:46] <sa3iid> dmerci fum !
[03:46] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Just edit the mount point on the new partition(s) you created on the new hard drive, enter something like '/media/sdb1' , "/media/sdb2' etc
[03:46] <asc> xoqa: */etc/X11/default-display-manager
[03:46] <FuM> =] 
[03:46] <ikonia> leperkhanz have you put a file system on it ?
[03:46] <brokenthorn> ikonia: Which it doesn't ^^
[03:46] <FuM> je parle un poquite
[03:47] <ikonia> brokenthorn I'll bet there is no file system on it
[03:47] <brokenthorn> ikonia: He did, didn't we tell him to do it before he came back? :)
[03:47] <FuM> FurryNemesis, It installed.
[03:47] <brokenthorn> ikonia:  there is! :)
[03:47] <ikonia> brokenthorn ho ho ho and you think he listened
[03:47] <FurryNemesis> great
[03:47] <brokenthorn> ikonia: well he was away for a while ;)
[03:47] <ikonia> brokenthorn ha ha
[03:47] <FuM> Cntrl alt backspace wooot
[03:47] <leperkhanz> Yeah, it's a big fat32 now.
[03:47] <brokenthorn> ikonia: it's not my problem if he didn't listen :)
[03:47] <ikonia> leperkhanz: what command did you use to put fat32 on it ?
[03:47] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Great :)
[03:47] <FurryNemesis> now reboot by typing sudo reboot
[03:47] <leperkhanz> I don't see the app to mount it in the system menu though.
[03:47] <FurryNemesis> and see what happens
[03:47] <leperkhanz> i used gparted.
[03:48] <ikonia> does gparted put file systems on (I never use it
[03:48] <leperkhanz> but there was no "mount" icon in gparted.  Mores the pitty.
[03:48] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: not mount it now, just set where to be mounted on next reboot :)
[03:48] <FurryNemesis> might need to enable it after wards, not sure as I don't use that driver
[03:48] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: all you need to edit is the "mount point"
[03:48] <leperkhanz> well, won't it mount automatically if I reboot?
[03:48] <floriakir> does anyone know when adobe's going to release AIR (kind of a flash version for desktop applications) for linux?
[03:48] <ikonia> leperkhanz: sudo mkdir /mnt/test; sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/test
[03:49] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: if you have it set to a correct mount point and fstype, then yes
[03:49] <leperkhanz> I was just trying to find a way to mount without reboot.
[03:49] <brokenthorn> ikonia: don't just assume it's hdb1 :P
[03:49] <brokenthorn> ikonia: you're the one not helping :)
[03:49] <ikonia> brokenthorn: it was hdb - he's put one big partition on - its hdb1
[03:49] <brokenthorn> ikonia: didn't you hear it is a SATA drive? :D
[03:49] <ikonia> brokenthorn: then why did he say earlier it was hdb
[03:49] <brokenthorn> ikonia: It's a sdb1 :))
[03:49] <leperkhanz> yeah, jesus, I'm not going to remember any of those commands either, and I may need to do it again.
[03:49] <ikonia> fair enough - if its sata - its sdb1
[03:50] <ikonia> leperkhanz do those commands as a one off to test it
[03:50] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: let's talk private and I'll help you, ok?
[03:50] <roy> the windows partition is not shown. does anybody know how to solve that?
[03:50] <leperkhanz> yeah it is sdb1
[03:50] <xoqa> asc: i've already edited that file, but upon an X-Windows restart (ctrl-alt-backspace), gdm appeared again.
[03:50] <brokenthorn> :))
[03:50] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: I queryed you, why won't you respond?
[03:50] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Thank you. By any chance would you happen to know how to fix my beryl? It was working fine yesterday then it just stopped working.
[03:50] <leperkhanz> i did respond.
[03:51] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: nope :)
[03:51] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: let's try again :)
[03:51] <gumpish> =/ Anyone know if the xchat package for fiesty is supposed to have SSL support?
[03:51] <leperkhanz> silly pidgin.
[03:51] <FurryNemesis> FuM, what stopped working?>
[03:51] <ikonia> gumpish I'm %90 certain it does
[03:51] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: I sent another message.
[03:51] <leperkhanz> got it.
[03:51] <leperkhanz> you aren't getting mine though.
[03:51] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Don't just /pm me, /query me :)
[03:51] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Desktop Effects. All the windows are messed up now, even though they weren't before.
[03:51] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: no :)
[03:51] <elkbuntu> xchat has had ssl support for like, forever now
[03:52] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: I ain't getting yours
[03:52] <FurryNemesis> whee
[03:52] <leperkhanz> yes I can see that.
[03:52] <z999> the sytnaptic manager lacks of several programs that I'm supposed to instal... where can I find it?
[03:52] <FurryNemesis> messed up how?
[03:52] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: why don't you use xchat? konversation, anything but pidgin :)
[03:52] <gumpish> =/ anyone know of a network that implements SSL  so I can test it?
[03:52] <leperkhanz> meh, this is the first thing it's been broken on.
[03:52] <mrjones> my cd tray always ejects the cds after a few seconds... can you imagine why?
[03:52] <leperkhanz> And it's nice having all my irc, aim, msn, yahoo, icq, myspace, and etc. in one chat.
[03:52] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Pidgin is not my favorite app :)
[03:53] <leperkhanz> it's getting better.
[03:53] <leperkhanz> but it obviously still has some irc flaws.
[03:53] <brokenthorn> and Miranda IM is getting even better :P
[03:53] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Like I cant explain it but the themes are messed up and like they don't show up.
[03:53] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: Do you have a Jabber ID? Yahoo ID?
[03:53] <leperkhanz> yahoo crhylove
[03:54] <z999> I use pidgin on my winbd ows PC too
[03:54] <FuM> FurryNemesis, My cube also stopped working as well.
[03:54] <brokenthorn> leperkhanz: added
[03:54] <z999> the synaptic manager lacks of several programs that I'm supposed to install... where can I find it?
[03:55] <CaptainM> z999, are all the repo's enabled?
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> z999: you may need to add repos.. what are you trying to install
[03:55] <FurryNemesis> got the beryl manager up?
[03:56] <FuM> Yes.
[03:56] <z999> I tried but all the guides are for ver. 6.10-6.06 and it's different
[03:57] <CaptainM> z999, in a terminal type: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:57] <z999> and that's it?
[03:58] <CaptainM> z999, nope
[03:58] <CaptainM> z999, and remove the "#" from the beginning of the lines ending in "main" "universe" and "multiverse"
[03:58] <CaptainM> z999, and that's it
[03:58] <z999> ok
[03:59] <z999> thx
[03:59] <A_New_Guy> Hello everyone. I'm new to Ubuntu (just installed it 3 minutes ago) and have a quick question if you have the time. :)
[04:00] <Hirvinen> !anyone | A_New_Guy
[04:00] <ubotu> A_New_Guy: 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?
[04:00] <mattycoze1> ikonia hay i'm back - i was just rechecking to source of the repo packages for MoBlock and apparently they were in fact Debian
[04:00] <CaptainM> z999, than at a terminal type "sudo apt-get update" and  "sudo apt-get upgrade". after that it should find the packages you want to install
[04:00] <begasus470> hiiz
[04:01] <A_New_Guy> I would like to delete some files from my old "C" drive, but when I go into "Places > Computer > C:" I try to delete and it says "Error: This is a read-only disk." Any ideas?
[04:01] <W9ZEB> I am connecting to an HP Laserjet 5 printer through the network, using Ubuntu 7.04.  Regardless of whether I use the Windows share, or print directly to the Jet-Direct port it keeps defaulting all jobs to the A4 paper size, regardless of what the paper setting is under the printer properties.  Help :(
[04:02] <jatt> C?
[04:02] <b0ha> what is the best dvd/cd burner for ubuntu?
[04:02] <CaptainM> A_New_Guy, linux can't make changes to your windows disk, only read stuff
[04:02] <ramseize> just askin how can i set up an adhoc connection?
[04:02] <CaptainM> A_New_Guy, if you want to be able to make changes take a look at ntfs-3g
[04:03] <cheeseboy> hi
[04:03] <cheeseboy> how do i setup printer?
[04:03] <CaptainM> !ntfs-3g | A_New_Guy
[04:03] <ubotu> A_New_Guy: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:03] <Bevdizzle> Hi, i have a connection problem on my newly installed Laptop. Im using Dapper and what happens is i cannot connect to addresses for instance archive.ubuntu.com unless i ping it first, then it connects... the same with connecting to IRC.freenode.net or with limewire does anyone know what would cause this?
[04:03] <A_New_Guy> @CaptainM: Thank you, I will look at that. Also, I will try to completely delete Windows XP. :P
[04:03] <CaptainM> A_New_Guy, that's an admirable goal ;)
[04:04] <cheeseboy> !cups
[04:04] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with CUPS. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[04:04] <sreeram> Hi, my ubuntu box does not have man pages for the Standard C Library, and for the POSIX API. Which package should I install to get them?
[04:04] <Bevdizzle> this is frustrating for me esp when installing packages as apt cannot connect to the servers but as soon as i ping the address it connects
[04:04] <A_New_Guy> I am very excited about Ubuntu and thank you everyone for your answers. Seems like a very helpful community. Thanks again, see ya!
[04:04] <ramseize> can anyone help me? how can i set up my ubuntu to create a adhoc wireless connection?
[04:04] <ikonia> sreeram I don't think glibc have man pages you have to man a function within the libary to get info
[04:05] <SlimeyPete> sreeram: glibc-doc ?
[04:05] <PriceChild> sreeram,  libc-doc for the c library doc maybe
[04:05] <sreeram> ikonia: `man fread' & `man select' => "No manual page"
[04:05] <sreeram> Ok
[04:06] <tuxix> hi
[04:06] <ikonia> sreeram nah - thats not what I mean
[04:06] <SlimeyPete> hi.
[04:06] <Bevdizzle> any ideas as to what would be causing my problem?
[04:06] <dbft> hey
[04:06] <ramzies> ikonia can you help me?
[04:06] <dbft> is there a way to get a list of wireless networks in range?
[04:06] <ikonia> ramzies: with what ?
[04:06] <nightevil> can any one help me with the command of restarting KDE GUI?
[04:06] <dbft> the network configuration thing doesnt seem to give you a list, you have to type it in
[04:06] <ramzies> about how to create adhoc connection?
[04:06] <cheeseboy> how so i open add printer thing??
[04:06] <ikonia> nightevil crtl+alt+delete
[04:07] <ikonia> ramzies in what way
[04:07] <b0ha> what is the best dvd/cd burner for ubuntu?
[04:07] <cheeseboy> do*
[04:07] <ramzies> ok heres the situation
[04:07] <ikonia> b0ha thats personal opinion - search the repo's try some see which one YOU look
[04:07] <ikonia> like
[04:07] <dbft> gnomebaker b0ha
[04:07] <fevel> nightevil: ctrl alt backspace?
[04:07] <cheeseboy> b08y, k3b
[04:07] <nightevil> thanks
[04:07] <b08y> ?
[04:07] <sreeram> ikonia: What did you mean?
[04:07] <ikonia> sreeram: try "man socket" for an example
[04:07] <dbft> so how do i get a list of wireless networksi n range?
[04:07] <ikonia> sreeram: thats the best way to explain it
[04:07] <b0ha> tnx for help guys
[04:07] <urthmover> where do I configure my file associations in Feisty?  (example  *.pps = OpenOffice)
[04:08] <cheeseboy> can someone help i really need to get this printed now
[04:08] <fevel> dbft: dont know....would like to know the answer too...anyone?
[04:08] <ramzies> im using ubuntu, and my brother is using a windows xp , and he has no internet connection, and he wants to have conection with me via wireless lan, how can i do that ikonia
[04:08] <sreeram> ikonia: `man socket' too says the same thing - "No manual entry for socket"
[04:08] <ikonia> sreeram, oh, you must be missing a lot of man pages. how about basics like "man kill"
[04:08] <sreeram> I just installed glibc-doc and that doesn't seem to have changed anything.
[04:09] <ikonia> ramzies just both set the same essid
[04:09] <sreeram> man kill works
[04:09] <ramzies> im using ubuntu, and my brother is using a windows xp , and he has no internet connection, and he wants to have conection with me via wireless lan, how can i do that ? can you help me out?
[04:09] <W9ZEB> FYI.....  for anyone printing to Letter size paper in ubuntu.....   please edit your /etc/papersize file to reflect it.
[04:09] <ikonia> sreeram I don't think glibc-doc is the man pages
[04:09] <W9ZEB> changing the setting on the printer properties didn't work, without also changing the setting on every print job.

[04:17] <FurryNemesis> or try that page for some simple settings
[04:17] <vega-_> and different sizes
[04:17] <FurryNemesis> sure, you wanted a desktop cube right?
[04:17] <rolfen> Bevdizzle: have you tried disabling your firewall (if any)?
[04:18] <ikonia> vega-_ two partitions ?

[04:18] <Bevdizzle> i dont have one installed afaik
[04:18] <ikonia> vega-_: there you go then
[04:18] <ikonia> vega-_: its displaying th two partitions
[04:18] <Bevdizzle> how can i check if there is one
[04:18] <vega-_> ikonia: hmmmm
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> vega-_: seems like reasonable behaviour to me
[04:18] <ikonia> simon__ I've been trying that for a long time
[04:18] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Yes. I had it before and it just stopped working along with Beryl alltogether.
[04:18] <rolfen> sudo iptables-save
[04:18] <ikonia> simon__ never quite got it working
[04:18] <n4t> someone can help me to solve a problem with acpi?
[04:18] <vega-_> ikonia: one is /dev/sdf and one /dev/sde1
[04:18] <ikonia> SlimeyPete very reasonable
[04:18] <ilu> I FUCKING LOVE LINUX
[04:18] <rolfen> Bevdizzle: if it shows nothing then there is no FW

[04:18] <ilu> woops sorry
[04:18] <PriceChild> !ohmy | ilu
[04:18] <ilu> wrong chat
[04:18] <ubotu> ilu: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:18] <PriceChild> ikonia, please don't...
[04:18] <ikonia> PriceChild: I know
[04:18] <FurryNemesis> go to desktop tab
[04:18] <ikonia> just totally uncalled for
[04:19] <simon__> ikonia: to bad
[04:19] <PriceChild> ikonia, as was yours
[04:19] <FuM> K
[04:19] <FurryNemesis> hit the tick box marked cube on the left hand side
[04:19] <ikonia> PriceChild: thats where we differ
[04:19] <simon__> it should be possible to do in some way
[04:19] <FuM> All of them are Ticked.
[04:19] <Bevdizzle> nothing came back from iptables-save
[04:19] <ikonia> simon__: I had a "little" success with thunderbird - but to be honest it was a real struggle
[04:19] <vega-_> ikonia: then how come the devices are different
[04:19] <ikonia> vega-_: thats a reasonale question
[04:19] <satzzeichen> Hallo, jemand da?!?!
[04:19] <rolfen> Bevdizzle: ok so you got no firewall at all... so the prob has got to be somewhere else
[04:19] <ikonia> vega-_: strange that your seeing /dev/sde1 and /dev/sdf which does look like two seperate devices

[04:20] <satzzeichen> Sorry rolfen :-)
[04:20] <ikonia> vega-_: does the contents of the mount points look like the two partitions on the one device ?
[04:20] <rolfen> satzzeichen: kein problem ;)
[04:20] <satzzeichen> thanks then i will change now the channel.
[04:20] <sreeram> I got the man pages working! `manpages-dev' is the package!
[04:20] <FurryNemesis> got it?
[04:20] <vega-_> ikonia: actually afaik there should be only one partition on the usb disk
[04:20] <vega-_> ikonia: i misunderstood you before on that one
[04:20] <FuM> Yes
[04:20] <simon__> Ikonia: hm. well support for windows mobile devices OR links to good alternative linux roms for the device should be supported
[04:21] <Frogzoo> what's the ubuntu way of modifying xmodmap ?
[04:21] <simon__> its important for many people who work with linux
[04:21] <ikonia> simon__ I agree - but its not
[04:21] <ikonia> simon__ I've spent a fair bit of time
[04:21] <simon__> something for developpers
[04:21] <dinochopins> anyone has canon pixma ip1200 ?
[04:21] <simon__> ok. thanks for clearing that up. So i should better not try
[04:21] <FurryNemesis> FuM, once that box is ticked, you should have your cube back
[04:22] <simon__> *making that clear...
[04:22] <ikonia> simon__: no no, your welcome to try, and I'd appriciate knowing how you get on
[04:22] <simon__> ok
[04:22] <ikonia> simon__: I'm just saying, I've put a reasonale ammount of effort in and had very poor results
[04:22] <FuM> FurryNemesis, No dice.
[04:22] <JayRoe> can someone help me set up a hauppauge remote control. I've spent almost a week trying to get the remote to work and if I don't succed, I'll be forced to move back to Windows.
[04:22] <FurryNemesis> hmm
[04:22] <n4t> is anyone available to help me to solve a problem with acpi?
[04:22] <FurryNemesis> what else is ticked in tht panel
[04:22] <ikonia> simon__ thats not to say you won't have better fortune, but the actual lack of support is a real fight, let alone getting the actual weak support working
[04:23] <simon__> Ikonia: since you're one of the people who know what they're doing and i'm not i think i'll trust you instead of complicating my life... and look for a revolutionary solution in som wiki
[04:24] <FuM> Fade to desktop
[04:24] <Darter> is there a way to add webcam capability to Giam?...or does it already have it and just need to be activated?
[04:24] <ikonia> simon__ I've not given up - but its been a long old road
[04:24] <FuM> Rotate Cube
[04:24] <toed> is it possible to set volume per-application?
[04:24] <ikonia> simon__: also thank you for the compliment
[04:24] <simon__> i understand
[04:24] <Esdi> Good afternoon people
[04:24] <simon__> Ikonia: merely a statement :)
[04:24] <ikonia> simon__: still, thank you
[04:24] <FurryNemesis> FuM, ok, is that it?
[04:24] <gavintlgold> Any questions about compiz fusion, feel free to ask me!
[04:25] <FuM> FurryNemesis, Yes
[04:25] <ikonia> gavintlgold: this is an ubuntu support channel, you may be better touting your elite skills in a compiz based channel
[04:25] <gavintlgold> i'm already on #compiz-fusion and #compiz-fusion-dev
[04:25] <JayRoe> ikonia, how do I find a lirc, hauppauge or v4l-dvb channel?
[04:25] <erUSUL> Darter: gaim does not support webcams afaik amsn does for msn iirc
[04:26] <FurryNemesis> FuM, right, get out of the manager, then right click the gem icon and select reload window manager
[04:26] <magnetron> gavintlgold: plz join #ubuntu-effects
[04:26] <Esdi> going from RH to LFS to Debian to Gentoo to Ubuntu (in a period of 9 years)... and I must say, I'm quite impressed with Ubuntu so far. Now to remove the auto logon from xchat and to move over to my old linux channel ;-) Keep up the good work people!
[04:26] <ikonia> JayRoe: ooh, no idea, lirc has a forum and mailing list as I recall
[04:26] <r_a_f> gavintlgold: i wan to turn like beryl wheel mouse - it is possible in compiz -fusion?
[04:26] <simon__> ikonia: you're welcome. Any way i can stay up to date on you hard efforts in the synchronization war without hanging out here and asking you every day?
[04:26] <gavintlgold> r_a_f: install or enable the Viewport Mouse Switch plugin
[04:26] <FuM> FurryNemesis, I did.
[04:26] <ikonia> simon__: I'll pm my email address now and I'd be happy for you to mail me and I'll put you on my "mail list" for "stuff"
[04:26] <r_a_f> gavintlgold: will try it thanks man ;)
[04:27] <ikonia> simon__: I'll also mail my blog url which will have information up oin the next 2 weeks on this project
[04:27] <JayRoe> ikonia, you know where I should look for channels? I don't know my way around irc to be honest.
[04:27] <Darter> erUSUL: is there a program I can replace Giam with that does?
[04:27] <FurryNemesis> and still no dice
[04:27] <gavintlgold> r_a_f: but right now, it only scrolls one viewport at a time... annoying, but it should get fixed eventually
[04:27] <simon__> thx
[04:27] <ikonia> simon__: if you have rss enabled you'll get an update
[04:27] <FuM> No dice whatsoever
[04:27] <FurryNemesis> damn
[04:27] <FurryNemesis> then sorry, not sure what's going on
[04:28] <FuM> FurryNemesis, For some reason it keeps selecting Metacity as the window manage even though I select Beryl to be the window manager.
[04:28] <lam64> hi
[04:28] <erUSUL> Darter: i just told you "...amsn does for msn iirc" (iirc stands fo if i recall correctly)
[04:28] <ikonia> simon__: did you get the pm
[04:28] <Protostar> hey, does anyone know how to get amarok to stop rescanning my music folders everytime it starts
[04:28] <FurryNemesis> FuM, ah, old problem
[04:29] <Darter> ok...thanks
[04:29] <FurryNemesis> FuM, go to session options and put beryl in there
[04:29] <erUSUL> !info amsn | Darter
[04:29] <ubotu> darter: amsn: An MSN messenger written in tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.96+dfsg1-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 2488 kB, installed size 9108 kB
[04:29] <n4t> pls ... I don't know how to do with a problem with acpi
[04:29] <Stormx2> amsn sucks :P
[04:29] <MrFeetio> i have alot of games installed, is there anyway to make it start a second row(rather then scrolling)
[04:30] <ikonia> MrFeetio not sure I understand your question
[04:30] <onechard> pidgin will hndle msn won't it
[04:30] <MrFeetio> in the applications menu
[04:30] <gavintlgold> ikonia: he means like windows does when there are too many windows in the menu
[04:30] <ikonia> ahhh I see
[04:30] <ikonia> MrFeetio: you can use a menu editor app to re-arrange
[04:30] <gavintlgold> i haven't heard of that MrFeetio
[04:31] <FuM> FurryNemesis, It keeps reverting back to Metacity
[04:31] <MrFeetio> well, i guess it should go in a suggestion box
[04:31] <ikonia> MrFeetio I'm sure there is a menu editor for gnome in the repo
[04:32] <FurryNemesis> FuM, then I'm not sure what it is
[04:32] <FurryNemesis> have you tried the forums?
[04:32] <erUSUL> ikonia: alacarte ?
[04:32] <ikonia> erUSUL possibly
[04:32] <burnerx> hi
[04:32] <Richter> Ol...
[04:32] <ikonia> MrFeetio did you see erUSUL's suggestion of alacarte ?
[04:32] <erUSUL> ikonia: right click in the menu and choose edit menu
[04:32] <MrFeetio> yea
[04:32] <ikonia> MrFeetio give that a go
[04:33] <ikonia> erUSUL: good call
[04:33] <Protostar> does anyone know how to configure Kubuntu to burn m4a files?
[04:33] <Richter> Ol...
[04:33] <ikonia> Protostar m4a are normally just video files
[04:33] <ikonia> playlists
[04:33] <burnerx> can i import a script into another script ?
[04:33] <ikonia> import ?
[04:34] <ikonia> what do you mean
[04:34] <Protostar> will i have several m4a audio files
[04:34] <burnerx> i dont want to clutter into one big script file
[04:34] <MrFeetio> it just allows me to remove, rename, and rearrange. Not start a second column
[04:34] <burnerx> so i separate it into smaller pieces and file
[04:34] <erUSUL> burnerx: in bash just use 'source file.sh' or '. file.sh' note the dot
[04:34] <ikonia> burnerx: ahhh you mean include yes
[04:34] <Richter> Hi anybody of brasil...?
[04:34] <Protostar> and I want to burn an album, but I cannot find the plugin for k3b that allows me to do so
[04:34] <burnerx> include ?
[04:35] <Protostar> I wish Richter
[04:35] <ikonia> burnerx yes include a script in another script or "source" a script
[04:35] <burnerx> oh okay
[04:35] <Richter> Alguem fala portugues aqui...?
[04:35] <erUSUL> !pt | Richter
[04:35] <ubotu> Richter: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.

[04:38] <RoundyT1> what is VMware for?
[04:38] <FuM> Time to reinstall Ubuntu then
[04:38] <ikonia> RoundyT1 running virtual machines
[04:38] <FuM> VMware is a OS Emulator for windows
[04:38] <ikonia> FuM no its not
[04:38] <ikonia> FuM its not "for windows"
[04:38] <RoundyT1> it runs on linux too.
[04:38] <fevel> FuM:  for windows?
[04:38] <RoundyT1> :-D
[04:38] <FuM> IT runs on windows
[04:38] <RoundyT1> it runs on linux too
[04:38] <FuM> Really?
[04:38] <ikonia> FuM IT runs on MULTIPLE platforms
[04:38] <ikonia> FuM: yes
[04:39] <RoundyT1> yeah. downloading it now
[04:39] <RoundyT1> its in the repos.
[04:39] <fevel> you mean it runs on windows too
[04:39] <RoundyT1> vmware-server
[04:39] <fevel> lol
[04:39] <erUSUL> !virtualizers
[04:39] <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
[04:39] <RoundyT1> sudo apt-get install vmware-server
[04:39] <simon__> and it works great. good to use to test out things on a virtual linux or windows machine without corrupting youre own file system
[04:39] <Richter> Thanks for help
[04:39] <Richter> ^^...
[04:40] <RoundyT1> i want to take a look at linux mint and knoppix and some other distro's of linux .... can i do that with VMware?
[04:40] <coopster> I'm on ubuntu feisty, trying to set up a mdadm-based RAID, and my system no longer boots, because during boot mdadm reports "WARNING /dev/mapper/pdc_gjdjgfahg4 and /dev/sdb4 appear to have very similar superblocks" and then repeats this warning endlessly
[04:40] <ikonia> RoundyT1 yes
[04:40] <RoundyT1> ikonia, what all do i need?
[04:40] <ikonia> coopster looks like your raid config is borked
[04:40] <bronze> I messed up xorg.conf but I made a backup (xorg.conf.bak). How do I get xorg.conf.bak to become xorg.conf?!
[04:40] <burnerx> can i call a function from another file ?
[04:41] <coopster> I've tried everything to fix this, googled endlessly, I've tried specifying the specific drives in the DEVICE line of mdadm.conf, i've tried uninstalling DMRAID, i've tried blacklisting dm-mod
[04:41] <burnerx> or does it have to be in the same script ?
[04:41] <coopster> ikonia, any idea which part?
[04:41] <coopster> config file, disk problems, etc
[04:41] <ikonia> coopster your using lvm too
[04:41] <ikonia> coopster and your using dmraid ??
[04:41] <coopster> ikonia, i don't have any LVM volumes defined, and i'm not sure if it's even installed, but i plan to use it
[04:42] <ikonia> coopster your system is in a mess as volume mapper things it has control of those disks
[04:42] <alesan> !flash
[04:42] <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
[04:42] <coopster> ikonia, no, i am not using dmraid, though I do have a dmraid capable MB
[04:42] <ikonia> coopster: mdadm should have control of the disks
[04:42] <coopster> ikonia, i agree 100%.  How do i find out what is making this occur and fix it?
[04:42] <ikonia> coopster: well your a bit stuck as your system won't boot
[04:42] <simon__> is cedega commercial?
[04:42] <coopster> i want to _give_ the volumes to mdadm.  it won't accept my donation!
[04:42] <simon__> non-free
[04:43] <ikonia> coopster: I think either dmraid or lvm has tried to take cntrol here
[04:43] <coopster> ikonia, I've been booting from liveCD, installing mdadm, and chrooting into the system
[04:43] <fazero> hi all, can somebody help me to tune-up apt to work through proxy with authentication?
[04:43] <Blubloblu> simon__: it's commercial
[04:43] <ikonia> coopster: boot from the livecd - and recreate the mdadm volumes
[04:43] <ikonia> coopster: don't chroot
[04:43] <ikonia> coopster: just do the mdmadm commands outside the chroot
[04:43] <bronze> I messed up xorg.conf but I made a backup (xorg.conf.bak). How do I get xorg.conf.bak to become xorg.conf?!
[04:44] <ikonia> bronze: sudo cp xorg.conf.bak xorg.conf
[04:44] <coopster> ikonia, k, i'll try recreating all the volumes, i only chroot when i use apt-get or similar, i've been doing most commands from outside
[04:44] <ikonia> coopster good man
[04:44] <simon__> whats best of: virtualbox and vmware?
[04:44] <ikonia> coopster: remember -f for "force"
[04:44] <ikonia> simon__ secrect option c - kvm ;)
[04:44] <ikonia> simon__: but thats only personal opinion
[04:45] <simon__> huh? secret option c???
[04:45] <fazero> or can somebody say where i can obtain some help?
[04:45] <ikonia> simon__ yes - neither, kvm is better ;)
[04:45] <ikonia> fazero I missed your question, sorry
[04:45] <simon__> ok i understand :)
[04:45] <bronze> ikonia, will it overwrite it with cp without any parameters?
[04:45] <ikonia> bronze yup
[04:45] <bronze> kk
[04:45] <bronze> brb
[04:45] <arang> Question: how to import the FM stations from Gnomeradio, from an ubuntu computer into another? (what file is needed to be copied and where is it?)
[04:46] <fazero> there are some troubles with apt throught proxy
[04:46] <coopster> ikonia, i have 6 raids defined, do i need to initialize all of them, or just the one that sdb4 (reported in error) is in?
[04:46] <ikonia> fazero what sort of troubles
[04:46] <simon__> where do i get kvm for ubuntu
[04:46] <ikonia> coopster  start with just sdb4 as so far thats the only one causing an issue
[04:46] <ikonia> simon__ I /think/ its installed by default on the server install, so it should be in the repos
[04:46] <ikonia> simon__: I think its festiy or later only though
[04:47] <ikonia> simon__: don't quote me on that though
[04:47] <coopster> arang, no clue about Gnomeradio in particular, but look at the directories in ~/  that start with . and see if there's maybe a .gnomeradio or similar
[04:47] <fazero> I've configured it with apt.conf as Acquire::http::proxy "http://ziganshin:ziganshin@192.168.0.1:8080";
[04:47] <Riot777> what's the command for "Sound Record Level Monitor" from the menu (Applications > Sound and Video >  Recording Level Monitor) in Ubuntu (I'm on xubuntu so I can't check it)
[04:47] <simon__> Quote "Ikonia says kvm is default in Feisty" ;)
[04:47] <fazero> but it didn't use this login&pass combination
[04:47] <ikonia> simon__ tut tut, I asked you not to
[04:48] <mundungus> heloo
[04:48] <coopster> simon__, ikonia, a kvm is a physical device that you plug into both computers and one set of keyboard monitor. (am i talking about the right 'kvm' ikonia?)
[04:48] <ikonia> fazero that doesn't look like the correct format
[04:48] <ikonia> coopster no
[04:48] <ikonia> coopster kernel virtual manager
[04:48] <coopster> simon__, nevermind :)
[04:48] <coopster> hermm, never heard that one before.  what's it do?
[04:48] <fazero> ikonia: why, i don't catch
[04:48] <ikonia> coopster: its a virtual manaager within the kernel
[04:48] <ikonia> fazero that format doesn't look right
[04:49] <Riot777> what's the command for ubuntu menu entry Applications > Sound and Video >  Recording Level Monitor can somebody check for me ?
[04:49] <coopster> ikonia, does it have some particular added purpose, or is it one of the required components that usually just works?  (i.e. have I always had one and just not known it?)
[04:49] <ikonia> coopster it allows you to create and manager virtual machines
[04:50] <soduer_> I just can't seem to get my openvpn server running, could someone tell me where openvpn stores its error logs?
[04:50] <ikonia> coopster: it makes use of virtualisation enabled cpu's
[04:50] <mundungus> am having a problem,since yesterday,when i isert my usb flash disk,i get an error msg that i cannot write onto the disk.i do not know where the issue came from and now i cannot copy anything to my disk,i can only edit it.someone pliz help me!

[04:50] <fazero> ikonia: in this way I didn't understand why synoptic don't work properly whith this options
[04:50] <dodo> has someone tried to install elisa on feisty?
[04:51] <ikonia> fazero show me your user/pass line again
[04:51] <coopster> ikonia, huh, good to know.  seeing as how i have one of those and virtualise things, i'll google it, tks
[04:51] <fazero> touble is 407 proxy requires auth
[04:51] <mundungus> ehhh! i dont know how to check,but i think its FAT
[04:51] <fazero> Acquire::http::proxy "http://ziganshin:ziganshin@192.168.0.1:8080";
[04:51] <Vlet> If I were to install a second drive in my system the same as my main one, is there a way to set up raid after the fact, or is it something I have to do when installing?
[04:51] <ikonia> mundungus check the mount options though
[04:51] <ikonia> fazero I'm wrong - that looks fine
[04:52] <mundungus> ikonia: how can i do that,coz i tried changing properties but i don not evven have the permissions to do that
[04:52] <coopster> Vlet, do you have files on the drive you want to add to the raid? (either one)
[04:52] <ikonia> mundungus do a "mount" and see what the mount options are
[04:52] <fazero> ikonia: I think so, therefore it's touble for me to understood thats wrong///
[04:52] <ikonia> fazero whats the error
[04:52] <Vlet> coopster: yes, the system is running a postgres database on a single disk now.. I would like to get this thing raided to speed it up, and if I didn't have to reinstall everything it would be great
[04:52] <mundungus> ikonia:lemmi try that now then itell u
[04:52] <ikonia> fazero: can you telnet to the ip address on port 8080
[04:53] <alesan> hi
[04:53] <alesan> how do In install the flash plugin? it seems they updated the package on the macromedia website and now apt-get won't recognize the md5sum
[04:53] <bronze> Does nvdia use AIGLX?
[04:54] <alesan> !skype
[04:54] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[04:54] <fazero> ikonia: no i can't
[04:54] <mundungus> ikonia:k,ave checked.k,how do i change the access rights,is it normally like the way we do for files....chmod.....
[04:54] <ermac0> bronze, , yes
[04:54] <coopster> Vlet, you can copy all of the files from the live drive onto some backup medium, then add the two drives to a raid and copy them back, that's about it
[04:54] <fazero> 3telnet: could not resolve 192.168.0.1:8080/telnet: Name or service not known

[05:00] <mundungus> ukay,obuto.thanx
[05:00] <coopster> Vlet, 2 options.  1 is use dd and copy the entire partition (using dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/mnt/backup_medium/hda1.contents), then create the raid, use dd with the if=backup_file and of=/dev/md0, then use resize2fs to expand /dev/md0 to take up the whole raid
[05:00] <mundungus> i wish  got help...am stuck
[05:00] <coopster> Vlet, 2 is just copy the files (with cp-r *) and then make the raid, use mkfs.ext2 (or whatever) to create a filesystem on it, then copy them back
[05:00] <MikeCamel> hi - I'm looking for a bunch of crypto modules, which, according to the stock .config file, are compiled in, but which don't seem to be in /lib/modules/2.6.20-*
[05:01] <MikeCamel> any ideas?
[05:01] <Vlet> coopster: cool - I think I can handle this - time to go install some hardware. thanks a lot
[05:01] <coopster> Vlet, with both of them you don't need to reinstall, but you do need to edit anything that referenced the old /dev/hda1 device and change it to the new /dev/md0 device
[05:01] <coopster> Vlet, no problem, best of luck
[05:03] <nova> hello
[05:03] <nova> is there a gui for archives in gnome? like ark in kde?
[05:03] <MikeCamel> nova: synaptic
[05:03] <nova> but that's package management :/
[05:03] <MikeCamel> ah - fileroller, then.

[05:06] <witless> the time on my PC loses as much as 20 minutes over 8 hours.  any ideas what the problem might be?  unfortunately i'm using my PC as an alarm clock...
[05:06] <MikeCamel> anyone have any idea where I can get some crypto modules which are allegedly in the stock kernel - but aren't shipped...
[05:06] <MikeCamel> witless - I suspect the battery on your motherboard needs replacing.
[05:07] <coopster> witless, don't know about the cause, but you can change the clock preferences to sync it online
[05:07] <FeaT_LuCiaNa> i've ubuntu feisty, and trying to install madwifi drivers, i deleted the wifi modules originals in ubuntu.. how can i reinstall those?
[05:07] <witless> MikeCamel: why would that matter if the mother board is not powered off?  also, i bought this motherboard new a month ago.
[05:07] <witless> coopster: that does not work for me either.

[05:08] <coopster> ikonia, grr, so I did that, and now it's changed to /dev/sdc3 and /dev/mapper/fdasdajdsf3 as the cause.  any ideas other than re-initializing all of em?
[05:08] <MikeCamel> witless - dunno, sorry.
[05:09] <coopster> witless, huh.  well, i have no idea.  if you run ntp update in the terminal does it update the clock or give an error or ?
[05:09] <witless> ok, thx
[05:09] <witless> i get:  ntpdate[30464] : the NTP socket is in use, exiting   -  maybe because i turned on ntpd last night ...?
[05:10] <mrabbit> hello, how can i stop mount points showing up on my desktop?
[05:10] <Axiam> hola

[05:12] <neverblue> how do I install previous versions of .debs ?
[05:12] <neverblue> not the latest
[05:12] <incorrect> neverblue, you will have to port it over i guess to be sure
[05:13] <neverblue> i was looking more for a key stroke in synaptic

[05:14] <ciacon> Hi all. I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 server on my box. There ist nothing special about it. it's final task is fairly simple, but I'm not quite sure howto go about this. I want to have a typical Server installed on it (Apache+PHP+MySQL), the one Ethernet is connected to my ADSL-connection and the other to a switch. The server should act as an Internet Gateway, but be acessable from the outside like a normal server... What is the best way of
[05:14] <ciacon> approach?
[05:15] <jughead> My friend just set up a ubuntu box running freenx.  I am able to connect, but I don't know how to copy files from my laptop to the remote computer.  How can I do this?
[05:16] <flux__> i just installed ubuntu but im ending up with nothing but a black screen when booting it, is there a way to reach the terminal?
[05:16] <varka> ciacon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing
[05:16] <neverblue> flux__, just black?
[05:16] <jhaig> jughead: One way is via scp.
[05:16] <flux__> neverblue yes
[05:16] <neverblue> turn your monitor on
[05:16] <flux__> :] 
[05:16] <neverblue> ctrl-alt-f1 will give you a terminal
[05:17] <neverblue> then ctrl-alt-f7 should take you back to X
[05:17] <jhaig> jughead: scp local_file username@remote_machine:/path/to/location/on/remote/machine
[05:17] <flux__> neverblue thx
[05:17] <scrant> I'm rather new, how do i install elilo?
[05:17] <neverblue> sudo aptitude install package
[05:18] <neverblue> u should also update your sources.list
[05:18] <jhaig> jughead: Does that help you at all?  It might be a bit cryptic.
[05:18] <Romeo5k> QUESTION:: Okay... im kinda confused here.. I think i got everything set up but nothing is going together....... First of all, FTP is working, but when i log in to it, there is no folders.. no nothing... theres nothing there.. I was thinking i would at least have a www file so i can insert my php. Secondly.I have webmin installed all with LAMP, and when i go to my url, it is directing to apache's default page saying it works. Whe
[05:18] <jughead> jhaig, yes I understand the syntax; I'm trying it now.  thanks
[05:19] <scrant> neverblue: was that for me, or were you still talking to the other?
[05:19] <chris_lee> hello, what is the best codec for running mp3?
[05:19] <ciacon> varka: thanks
[05:19] <jhaig> jughead: Also works for copying from the remote machine to local, and multiple files (using a wildcard).
[05:20] <SlimG> If fstab has mounted a ext3 partition on ex.: /media/ext3disk  ,Is it possible to run: sudo chown $USER:$USER -R /media/ext3disk   (after it's mounted) to make him able to write to the disk?
[05:20] <Frogzoo> anyone managed to get an xmodmap to run on login on feisty ?
[05:21] <dxdt> SlimG: I want to say yes.  I want to say that I have done this actually... but I can't recall for sure.
[05:21] <jughead> thanks jhaig is the s in scp for secure?  Is it safe?
[05:21] <SlimG> dxdt: I want to believe you, so I'll do :) thank you
[05:21] <chris_lee> what codec do you prefer for playing mp3?
[05:21] <jhaig> jughead: Yes, secure, like ssh is 'secure shell'.  It copies over ssh.
[05:22] <Pici> !mp3 > chris_lee (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[05:22] <jhaig> jughead: There is also rcp which copies over telnet (insecure)

[05:34] <CapaH> Is there a reason why my laptop battery only stays charged for like 5 minutes on Ubuntu before I have to plug it in? This is a new development, before I installed Feisty this was not the case. Any suggestions?

[05:36] <SlimeyPete> A_New_Guy: synaptic is in the system admin menu at the top
[05:36] <EightEleven> Orangefly_: That is supposed to be good. :)
[05:36] <EightEleven> Means nobody is using your soundcard.

[05:38] <SlimeyPete> user_: "sudo apt-get remove beryl", but yes
[05:38] <A_New_Guy> @SlimeyPete: Thank you. One more question... Can I completely get rid of my NTFS partitions if I want to exclusively use Ubuntu? (I just want to get rid of all my old WIndows-related stuff entirely)
[05:38] <EightEleven> Orangefly_: I had this problem before if other programs were using the soundcard.
[05:38] <user_> Simeyprt

[05:43] <TuxRox>  there a place in the .evoultion directory or in GConf that would eliminate that? I have searched high and low to no avail... :-(

[05:56] <A_New_Guy> @M1r: I chose automatic partition when I first installed Ubuntu, but for some reason it didn't delete my NTFS (windows) partitions. Now I finally turned them into EXT3, so should I reinstall Ubuntu in-order to repartition everything?
[05:56] <IceLink> well Frogzoo, when executing 'unrar -e "CrisisGeneralMidi1.8(OfficialPack).part1.rar"' i just get a list of commands and usage and so on

[06:12] <xml-blog> hi all, quick question. I've installed ircd on fiesty and can connect locally, but get connection refused from other boxes on my lan. i've googled this and found lots of how-tos on ssh+port forwarding but no clear indication of why the port is not open and how to open it. would someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction? TIA.
[06:12] <mono> cotyrothery: you wanna run compiz?
[06:12] <Jaymac> user_: it contains compiler frontends for lots of languages, including c and c++

[06:14] <Anlar> user_: you might want to take a look at (google for instance) kdevelop, and anjuta
[06:14] <Anlar> user_: and monodevelop, and netbeans. (:

[06:17] <OldPink> Jaymac, thanks :)
[06:17] <OldPink> m1r, as Jaymac said, the listed requirements are 256Mb of RAM and 2GB minimum hard drive space. Are the requirements for Live CD vs Alternate CD different? I thought anything that met those would support the liveCD
[06:17] <grim76> Romeo5k: Depends on where you set the default path in the configuration file to drop people that login..... Also wait for people to answer your question...there are many people in here asking for help just like yourself.
[06:17] <verbatim> hi can ne1 help me set up an irc server?
[06:18] <Romeo5k> hmmm
[06:18] <kbrooks_> OldPink, livecd / alt cd is different, but livecd seems to need 256 mb of ram and optional swap
[06:18] <muszek> Romeo5k: I've never used ProFTP, but in any client I used you had your "local" window and "remote" one... in either you just browse to the directory you want to operate on
[06:18] <verbatim> im trying to setup an irc server for my website can ne1 point me in the rite direction i have noo idea
[06:18] <m1r> oldpink , dont waste time on live cd, u wont get there ;)

[06:18] <verbatim> im trying to setup an irc server for my website can ne1 point me in the rite direction i have noo idea
[06:18] <Jaymac> the alt cd is the old install method that debian uses, and ubuntu used up to 5.10, right?

[06:20] <xoqa> how does one go about installing and setting it as the primary graphics library to use.
[06:20] <kbrooks_> ilu: and it is easy.
[06:21] <ilu> kbrooks its that hard huh?
[06:21] <kbrooks_> ilu: just give them the ip of the ssh server
[06:21] <Jaymac> verbatim, here is a thread on your issue:

[06:21] <OldPink> m1r, what makes you think that?
[06:21] <m1r> verbatim , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IrcServer?highlight=%28server%29 ok ?
[06:21] <kbrooks_> ilu: and they'll be able to use sftp or a gui client to download
[06:21] <verbatim> thanks jaymac
[06:21] <verbatim> thanks m1r
[06:22] <m1r> oldpink , have several machines , lowest is 500mhz 128 ram :)
 ilu: scroll up. He's been told. # ?
[06:22] <xml-blog> verbatim:
[06:22] <xml-blog> you will still need to figure out how to connect from other boxes
[06:22] <xml-blog> if I find the answer i'll share it
[06:22] <m1r> oldpink, had damn hard time to get it up , then finaly i used alternate and managed to install
[06:22] <xml-blog> verbatim: trying a few things now
[06:22] <Jaymac> verbatim, here is a guide written for Fedora and SUSE, but might be a good read: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_irc_server_anope_services
[06:23] <kbrooks_> xml-blog, do you have a router? and define "other".
[06:23] <ilu> its strange i did 'sudo apt-get install java' and still java does not work
[06:23] <Jaymac> ilu,  in firefox?
[06:23] <Anlar> ilu: sun-java6-plugin
[06:23] <verbatim> thansk jaymac
[06:23] <xml-blog> kbrooks_: i'm on the same hub as the box, other things trying now includes inspecting /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf
[06:23] <Jaymac> ilu, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts
[06:24] <xml-blog> looking for information scent :)
yeah im trying to loginto hushmail via firefox and it still complaints about some java shite
 oh thanks man ill try that
[06:24] <kbrooks_> ilu: you need the firefox plugin
[06:25] <ilu> OK
[06:25] <Anlar> ilu: oh did you know that you need the firefox plugin!
[06:25] <Jaymac> ilu, also worth going to Edit>Preferences inside Firefox, and going to the Content tab and making sure "Enable Java" is ticked
[06:25] <kbrooks_> ilu; the jre is just the jre.
[06:26] <IceLink> adis ihros
 i did your apt-get and lets try now to fix the ff settings
[06:26] <OldPink> Thanks alot m1r
[06:26] <xml-blog> hmm as a general rule, are ports open/closed in ubuntu?
[06:27] <PriceChild> xml-blog, closed
[06:27] <OldPink> Just waiting to hear back about the battery life, and should have bought myself a $150 legacy laptop ;)
[06:27] <PriceChild> xml-blog, unless you install something that opens them
[06:27] <xml-blog> PriceChild: thx
[06:27] <Anlar> xml-blog: technically, all the ports that exist, are open :) :D
[06:27] <ilu> my java is ticked but still this shite does not work
[06:27] <xml-blog> PriceChild: by opens do you mean listens
[06:27] <ilu> maybe i need the plugin
[06:28] <xml-blog> so if i run something that listens on a port that *should* be it right?
[06:28] <PriceChild> xml-blog, ubuntu is shipped with all closed ports by default... but if you install something that opens a port or makes it listen or whatever than that's up to you
[06:29] <Jaymac> ilu - you did restart firefox didn't you?
[06:29] <xml-blog> PriceChild: i guess what i mean is, assuming i write a custom little script in ruby for example to listen on some arbitraty port is that now available? or is there some additional configuration required?
[06:29] <PriceChild> xml-blog, choose a high port, above 1500 to be sure
[06:29] <Anlar> xml-blog: sure it is

[06:29] <neocortex> Hello ALL! Please, help me: what would be the best smartphone to bye, for the reasonable price and easy to sync with Ubuntu (6.06)???
[06:30] <ilu> ok lets try restarting
[06:30] <XtypeWriter74> hii
[06:30] <xml-blog> cool ok so it's not like there's some firewall "on" by default that would block access in spite of me listening on the port
[06:30] <vdjose> de donde sois?
[06:30] <PriceChild> !es | vdjose
[06:30] <xml-blog> that helps much. thx PriceChild, Anlar

[06:30] <Jaymac> neocortex, not sure you'll get an answer to that question here

[06:30] <PriceChild> neocortex, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:30] <ilu> still same shite hushmail does not load the window box for the passwd when the java stuff is not working properly
[06:31] <PriceChild> xml-blog, nope
[06:31] <Jaymac> what is hushmail?
[06:31] <neocortex> Jaymac, please, where to ask??? I am quite hectic - out of ideas ...
[06:31] <Jaymac> is there a website i can go to to test it here?
[06:31] <Jaymac> #ubuntu-offtopic
 www.hushmail.com anonymous email
[06:31] <Jaymac> is there any way to test your problem without logging in?
[06:31] <xml-blog> Anlar, PriceChild: thx again. I will check elsewhere then for my ircd issue. if it's listening i should be able to get to it
[06:31] <Jaymac> any other pages that don't work as they should?
[06:32] <user_> so...I install GCC but where can I find it?
[06:32] <XtypeWriter74> i have an Acer travelmate 2303WLMi laptop and would like to install the latest ubuntu on it... where can i findout if all hardware as in Wlan ... is supported for it?
[06:32] <Jaymac> user_, sudo aptitude install build-essential
[06:32] <m1r> xtypewriter74, run livecd
[06:32] <Jaymac> XtypeWriter74, why don't you just run the LiveCD?
[06:32] <user_> Jaymac: I do like that..and reboot
[06:32] <xml-blog> unless.. hmm perhaps it's config'd to listen on 127.0.0.1 versus the public IP
[06:32] <hrast> hi people,, I need help.. I cannot mout a hd I've connected to my desktop.. It was from my old system and it is formatted with reiserfs..
[06:32] <xml-blog> hmm
[06:32] <Jaymac> you don't need to reboot user_
[06:33] <xml-blog> that seems promising
[06:33] <hrast> What can I do? I use Kubuntu..
[06:33] <Borzo> Xteven : yes run the liveCD, BTW my Acer 2490 works like a charm
[06:33] <user_> Jaymac: but I want:D....so where?
[06:33] <Borzo> err XtypeWriter74 that was :) sorry

[06:33] <XtypeWriter74> i have an kubuntu 6.06.1 version live at the moment on it but it doesnt reconize the Wlan
[06:33] <ilu> maybe i need to fix some java stuff in synaptic?
[06:33] <PriceChild> XtypeWriter74, i'd suggest trying the feisty live cd
[06:34] <Borzo> XtypeWriter74: what's your wireless chipset?
[06:34] <user_> I install GCC because someone told me that I need for C++ compiler
[06:34] <user_> And where is that compiler?
[06:34] <Jaymac> user_, it is part of the build-essential collection
[06:35] <Jaymac> user_, to run gcc: type gcc and it will give you usage options
[06:35] <blubloblu> Hi all, my wireless card doesn't work after I made a mess of every configuration possible :P ndiswrapper, /etc/network/interfaces, drivers etc... It works well on the live cd. How might I restore all my wireless configuration to its original state?

[06:38] <Jaymac> ilu, i created a hushmail account and it works fine for me in FF, I guess you haven't installed the required plugin
 but in my settings i marked all the java stuff
[06:39] <ilu> what is this plugin i neeD? were can i find it?
[06:39] <XtypeWriter74> srry i busted my achillis the otherday and have to move around and its a pain in the foot!!:P

 no man just a regular intel cpu 32bit i think
[06:40] <ilu> not double cpu core
[06:40] <tschaka> lowbee merc avi.
[06:40] <Jaymac> ok
[06:41] <Jaymac> ilu, you have installed these packages?
[06:41] <Jaymac> sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts

[06:41] <ilu> yup
[06:42] <ilu> well what do you mean accepted tearms?
[06:42] <rafaelscj> Can anyone help me to install the Realtek High Definition Audio's driver?
[06:42] <danfg> uh guys, does the update manager suggest installation of packages that are "NOT AUTHENTICATED"? is that normal/ok?
[06:43] <Jordan_U> danfg, Either get the pgp key you are missing from a repository you added or run: sudo apt-get update
[06:43] <Romeo5k> Can somone guide me as to where i edit the default folder in ProFtpD... I looked at proftpd.conf, and on there,,, there is no default location for when users log in.. And i want to redirect where im logging int to.
[06:44] <user_> Jaymac: hou can I use GCC to write C++ programs?
[06:44] <Jaymac> user_, gcc is a compiler
[06:44] <user_> shit
[06:44] <MajorPayne> user_: Use g++ to compile.
[06:44] <Jaymac> it compiles your C++ programs to make them executable, nothing more
[06:44] <Anlar> user_: "anjuta" or "kdevelop" for c++
[06:44] <danfg> Jordan_U: will do, thanks :)
[06:44] <ilu> omg now i know w the problem is java is not enabled.... but in my settings i have marked all thouse java things
[06:45] <ilu> "ERROR! Java, which is required, is not currently enabled in your browser. Click here for more information. >>"
[06:45] <Jaymac> you need to download an IDE if you want help writing C++ programs
[06:45] <user_> Anlar: thanks:D
[06:45] <usuario> lorena9700@hotmail.com
[06:45] <Anlar> Jaymac: he ASKED for ide in the first place and then some idiot started talking about gcc to him
[06:45] <user_> Anlar: which program need less CPU ?
[06:46] <Jordan_U> danfg, np
[06:46] <blubloblu> Hi all, my wireless card doesn't work after I made a mess of every configuration possible :P ndiswrapper, /etc/network/interfaces, drivers etc... It works well on the live cd. How might I restore all my wireless configuration to its original state?
[06:46] <Anlar> user_: anjuta is very light, and simple, but lacks some more advanced features..  it's aok though, just try it out
[06:47] <Jaymac> Anlar, the first thing I saw was someone asking for a compiler
[06:47] <rafaelscj> How can I change the resolution to 1024x800?
[06:47] <Dusk_> how to run .bin files???
[06:47] <Jaymac> Anlar, hence I suggested gcc
[06:47] <Romeo5k> anyone in here uses ProFtpd??
[06:47] <Anlar> Jaymac: learn how to read
[06:47] <PriceChild> Dusk_, what kind of bin file is it?
[06:47] <PriceChild> Dusk_, a cd image? an executable?
[06:47] <Dusk_> a poker game with the lastname bin
[06:47] <PriceChild> Dusk_, where's it from?
[06:47] <Anlar> rafaelscj: if your display adapter is intel, "apt-get install 915resolution" and reboot. I don't know about nvidia/ati
[06:47] <Dusk_> executable
[06:47] <PriceChild> Dusk_, /path/to/file.bni
[06:47] <PriceChild> *bin
[06:48] <Anlar> rafaelscj: add "sudo" before the command naturally
[06:48] <huyth> how can I ping a computer by its name, right now I get "ping: unknown host name", ip works fine
[06:48] <Dusk_> just the name?
[06:48] <afief> Dusk_, if they are executable just set the executable(right click->properties->permissions->allow to execute) and double click it(or ./file-name.bin in the command line)
[06:48] <Jaymac> Anlar, I can read perfectly well, thank you
[06:48] <rafaelscj> Yes, It's Intel
[06:48] <Dusk_> ok thanks guyz
[06:48] <blubloblu> huyth: is your dns ok?
[06:49] <huyth> blubloblu, I have no idea, how do I check?
[06:49] <Jaymac> Anlar, I answered the question I was asked.  Perhaps he asked about an IDE  before I entered - not a lot I can do in that case.
[06:49] <SlimG2> Is there a way to temporarily make ubuntu stay on the lan but make it unable to see a internet connection? removing/disabling the gateway address or something like that?
[06:49] <blubloblu> huyth: open firefox go to www.ubuntu.com
[06:49] <Frogzoo> SlimG2: iptables
[06:49] <francis_> m1r:
[06:50] <huyth> blubloblu, that works fine
[06:50] <m1r> yes francis_ ?
[06:50] <francis_> i jsut got the .21 kernel will be compling it
[06:50] <francis_> also any idea as to why suspend does'nt work ??
[06:50] <blubloblu> huyth: are you ping locally or internet?
[06:50] <SlimG2> Frogzoo: can i just delete the gateway with iptables, and it will reappear when i run dhclient3 ?
[06:51] <m1r> francis_ did u compile driver ?
[06:51] <lontra> #kernel
[06:51] <huyth> blubloblu, locally
[06:51] <Jaymac> huyth, if you are pinging locally, try pinging:  computername.domain
[06:51] <Jaymac> for example: laptop.home
[06:51] <francis_> i need the kernel sources for that
[06:51] <francis_> i just got the sources for a friend
[06:51] <francis_> gonna sit and compile it now
[06:51] <m1r> ok
[06:51] <lontra> what does ubuntu use for gnome-power-manager?  powersaved?
[06:52] <francis_> gnome-power-manager
[06:52] <blubloblu> My wireless card doesn't work after I made a mess of every configuration possible :P ndiswrapper, /etc/network/interfaces, drivers etc... It works well on the live cd. How might I restore all my wireless configuration to its original state?
[06:52] <francis_> lontra:
[06:52] <huyth> Jayman, problem is, I cannot connect to the domain from the other computers as I get a dns-error message
[06:52] <lontra> francis_, but isn't there a backend to gnome-power-manager like powersaved?
[06:53] <Jaymac> huyth, perhaps check the settings on your router?
[06:53] <m1r> francis_ i dont think u need to compile kernel , just update to newest ubuntu
[06:53] <oxeimon3> so, I've just installed ubuntu...where do I get the drivers for all my hardware?
[06:54] <Jaymac> oxeimon3, what drivers do you need?
[06:54] <huyth> Jaymac, didn't find anything about dns there
[06:54] <FuM> How Do I install flash on Ubuntu? Anyone?
[06:54] <oxeimon3> jaymac: network card drivers, for one, I think
[06:54] <francis_> m1r: i am  on 7.04
[06:54] <oxeimon3> I can't seem to connect to the internet
[06:54] <Jaymac> FuM: sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:54] <powergoal> Do I have to manually add a network interface for my wireless card in kubuntu 7.04?  Or is it automatic?
[06:54] <FuM> Ty
[06:54] <Jaymac> oxemon3, try System>Advanced> restricted driver manager
[06:55] <erUSUL> !wifi | powergoal
[06:55] <ubotu> powergoal: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:55] <m1r> francis_ u have  latest kernel update ?
[06:55] <powergoal> erUSUL: thankyou.
[06:55] <francis_> no gonna get the update now
[06:55] <FuM> Jaymac, Still isnt working.
[06:55] <francis_> i got a sound card whose drivers  are in the 2.1 too
[06:55] <m1r> ah
[06:55] <randomseed> !record tv
[06:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about record tv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:55] <m1r> ok then
[06:56] <Jaymac> did that script download and install the flash player?
[06:56] <berent> does ubuntu have drivers for 8500 GTS nvidia card?
[06:56] <randomseed> !tv
[06:56] <ubotu> http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out
[06:56] <FuM> It did not find the package
[06:56] <John`> where can you download MergedFB?
[06:56] <ilu> i thought linux did not have drivers?
[06:56] <iehova> Hi everyone. I recently developed a problem with (I assume) Gnome Power Manager. Basically, when I close my laptop lid, nothing happens, whether I set it to go to blank screen, hibernate, suspend or whatever. This happens whether on AC or battery power, and I can't seem to fix it
[06:56] <iehova> If anyone could help that would be awesome. =] 
[06:56] <oxeimon3> Jaymac: System>Advanced>restricted driver manager...how do I get there?
[06:56] <PriceChild> ilu, if it didn't, how would it drive devices? :)
 :) true
[06:56] <PriceChild> ilu, most drivers are in the kernel
[06:56] <Jaymac> oxeimon3, are you on KDE or GNOME?
[06:57] <ilu> ah thats the diffrence
[06:57] <PriceChild> ilu, that's why you don't have to do them manually yourself
[06:57] <ilu> its baked into the kernel
[06:57] <Jaymac> FuM, you need to enable extra repositories
[06:57] <m1r> !mach64
[06:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mach64 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:57] <John`> where can you download MergeFB for ubuntu?
[06:57] <PriceChild> ilu, however for example, i'm having to compile modules for my wireless and nvidia card.
[06:57] <ilu> PRiceCHild gotcha :)
[06:57] <FuM> How do I do that?
[06:57] <oxeimon3> Jaymac: I dont know. It's whatever ubuntu 7.04's default is
[06:57] <Jaymac> FuM, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:57] <m1r> !ati mach64
[06:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati mach64 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:57] <FuM> k
[06:57] <dang`r`us> hi
[06:57] <The-KMT> hello everybody
[06:57] <dang`r`us> why does https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot say it's better to install debootstrap manually?
[06:57] <PriceChild> Jaymac, FuM system > admin > software sources is an easier place to configure that
[06:57] <Jaymac> oxeimon3, do you have a bar at the top of your screen with Applications | Places | System?
[06:57] <oxeimon3> the 'desktop' icon is on the bottom left, menus are on the top left
[06:57] <oxeimon3> yes
[06:58] <The-KMT> do you know a program like download accelerator plus for ubuntu ?
[06:58] <berent> does ubuntu have drivers for 8500 GTS nvidia card?
[06:58] <Jaymac> oxeimon3, click on System, then Administration
[06:58] <blubloblu> oxeimon3: you are using GNOME
[06:58] <PriceChild> berent, there's an 8500?
 when i do 'kernelversion' in a konsol it says i have 2.6 but i herd there is a newer one... how do i upgrade? i only use apt-get install.... ?
[06:58] <oxeimon3> ah wait I see it
[06:58] <FuM> Jaymac, I'm in software sources.
[06:58] <FuM> What now?
[06:58] <Jaymac> berent, you can either use Envy or try the Restricted Manager to install the nvidia driver
[06:58] <PriceChild> berent, i thought it was just 8800 and 8600.... but no we don't "yet". You'll have to use the drivers from nvidia.com
[06:58] <Jordan_U> !kernel | ilu
[06:58] <ubotu> ilu: 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
[06:59] <PriceChild> ilu, Newer does NOT mean better. Stick with what works.
[06:59] <El_Burro> im just about to install feisty, my XP install is on sda, do i need to set the boot loader to point to (sd0) (its the disk that is set in bios to boot from)?
 but... but... i love tinckering around ;)
[06:59] <oxeimon3> Jaymac: there is only 1 driver in the list, which iss an ATI accelerated graphics driver
[06:59] <Jordan_U> ilu, If you want a newer kernel than Ubuntu comes with you have to compile from source, you probably don't really want wither though
[06:59] <PriceChild> ilu, we can't support kernel tinkering.... very random problems etc.
[06:59] <ilu> ah
[06:59] <oxeimon3> Jaymac: the checkbox is unchecked, and in Status, there is a red circle saying, Not in use
[06:59] <Jordan_U> ilu, ( a new kernel or to compile from source that is )
[06:59] <berent> PriceChild : yes there is . 8500 GT NVIDIA with PCIe
[06:59] <ilu> maybe out of my leuge :P
[06:59] <ilu> ok i will not fix a problem that does not exist
[06:59] <oxeimon3> what are restricted drivers?
[06:59] <PriceChild> berent, meh, i must be out of the loop :)
[06:59] <Jaymac> FuM enable the multiverse repositories
[07:00] <John`> where can you download MergeFB for ubuntu?
[07:00] <Jaymac> oxeimon3, that will give you proprietary ATI graphics drivers
[07:00] <Jordan_U> oxeimon3, Proprietary binary drivers
[07:00] <berent> Jaymac: you mean there are drivers right
[07:00] <FuM> Jaymac, How?
[07:00] <Jaymac> berent, I mean there are nvidia drivers available for ubuntu, which may or may not work with your particular card
[07:00] <oxeimon3> Jaymac: even after I click on it and say "enable driver", the checkbox remains unchecked
[07:01] <berent> Jaymac : why so much of unreliability.
[07:01] <Jaymac> FuM tick all of the boxes on the first section
[07:02] <FuM> Did
[07:02] <ilu> !Kernel
[07:02] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[07:02] <Jaymac> and you can't find flashplugin-nonfree
[07:02] <ilu> !sudo
[07:02] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:02] <FuM> nope
[07:02] <armyriad> Photoshop in Ubuntu?
[07:02] <Jordan_U> FuM, Have you enabled Universe and Multiverse ?
[07:02] <FuM> Yes
[07:02] <PriceChild> armyriad, the gimp ?
[07:03] <ilu> !dpkg
[07:03] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[07:03] <Jordan_U> !appdb | armyriad
[07:03] <ubotu> armyriad: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[07:03] <ilu> whats the command to see the computers hardware?
[07:03] <Jordan_U> !msgthebot > ilu
[07:03] <Jordan_U> ilu, lspci ?
[07:03] <ilu> nha its another one i think
[07:03] <francis_> m1r: any idea about suspend
[07:03] <francis_> ??
[07:04] <Jordan_U> ilu, What hardware info are you looking for?
[07:04] <m1r> francis_ second
[07:04] <oxeimon3> how can I tell if my network drivers are correctly installed?
[07:04] <Jaymac> FuM: go here:
 there is like a command in the konsol that lists all the hardware you got in your computer... like graphics card... sound card... hdds... ram... etc
[07:04] <Jaymac> http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/
[07:05] <Jaymac> (in Firefox)
[07:05] <francis_> ok
[07:05] <Jaymac> it will prompt you to download and install the plugin
[07:05] <FuM> You have to install it manually thought.
[07:05] <FuM> Though*
[07:05] <FuM> And I don't know how to navigate to the folder using the terminal.
[07:05] <{CotA}Frostb> Can Someone Tell Me The Difference Between VMware Server ,Tools, And Player?
[07:05] <Jaymac> FuM... you don't
[07:06] <savetheWorld> FuM: use the cd command
[07:06] <m1r> francis_ i had to put install some package to get it working, but cant recall :/
[07:06] <FuM> Can you run me through the install please ,Jaymac?
[07:06] <Jaymac> FuM if you go to that website: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/
[07:07] <Grifer> umm.. how do I list all users on channel in irssi
[07:07] <Jaymac> that is a test site to show you which version of Flash player you have installed
[07:07] <Jordan_U> {CotA}Frostb, VMware player is like VMware server with less features :) And VMware tools is what you install on the Guest OS
[07:07] <oxeimon3> is my ethernet card called a "Networking Interface?"
[07:07] <Jaymac> if you click where it says Download plugin (or something) Firefox will search for the plugin, find it, and install it
[07:07] <oxeimon3> I'm just confused because on XP, it's called a "Gigabit Ethernet Controller" or something
[07:08] <FuM> I have no flash installed whatsoever.
[07:08] <godofredo> Jordan_U: If I wanted To Install Another Operating System On The Same Box As Ubuntu, would i make the server on the same computer?
[07:08] <francis_> m1r:  have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471855
[07:08] <francis_> is that it
[07:08] <FuM> Firefox can't install it, you need to manually download it.

[07:09] <godofredo> Jordan_U: Yes, Install The Server.
[07:10] <godofredo> Jordan_U: I'm Using A Howtoforge.com Tutorial For It.
[07:10] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You can install VMware Server from Ubuntu's Universe repository
[07:10] <bizinichi> sup
[07:10] <godofredo> Jordan_U: Really?
[07:10] <godofredo> Jordan_U: Does It Matter Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Ubuntu?
[07:11] <godofredo> Jordan_U: Or Does It Apply to all?
[07:11] <Romeo5k> Does anyone in here use ProFTPd ??
[07:11] <FuM> Jaymac, nothing
[07:11] <Jordan_U> godofredo, No, they all use the same repositories
[07:11] <El_Burro> if i set my bootloader (grub) to install on sd0 instead of hd0 will it bugger the xp install on sda?
[07:11] <godofredo> Jordan_U: How Would I Access That Repository?
[07:11] <FuM> Jaymac, I don't have any flash installed on my computer, I want to get it.

[07:12] <danielbw> hey does anyone know of a good place to get flash games that I can host?
[07:12] <Jaymac> the Flash download page will realise you have no Flash and prompt you to download it
[07:12] <Jordan_U> !automatix | godofredo
[07:12] <ubotu> godofredo: 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

[07:16] <darkramon> it is for my photographic stock...
[07:17] <Jaymac> all right, FuM:
[07:17] <Jaymac> download the flash player in tar.gz format
[07:17] <Jaymac> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[07:17] <mhz`> install it from synaptics?
[07:17] <FuM> Done, Jaymac
[07:17] <Jaymac> ok
[07:17] <xvts>  <darkramon> you can use sendmail
[07:17] <Jaymac> do you see it on your desktop?
[07:17] <godofredo> Jordan_U, After Looking Through The Menu's All I Find Is Adept Package Manager
[07:18] <darkramon> sendmail but sendmail is an smtp server
[07:18] <xvts> also a clint
[07:18] <xvts> client
[07:18] <FuM> Yes, It's been on there for a while now.
[07:18] <Jaymac> ok
[07:18] <Jordan_U> Jaymac, FuM Why not install with apt / Synaptic ?
[07:18] <darkramon> i need a program to connect to my server and import html from website in order to send news to my customer about the latest photographs i have on my stock
[07:18] <Jaymac> because he hasn't been able to find it
[07:18] <Jaymac> and I've tried explaining how
[07:18] <Jaymac> it is in the multiverse repository
[07:18] <Jaymac> flashplugin-nonfree
[07:19] <xvts> how did you do this in w32
[07:19] <godofredo> Jordan_U, It wasn't installed. So I added It In The Adept Installer. Never Heard Of Synaptic Not Being There :(
[07:19] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I don't know how to add repositories through adept package manager, I can either tell you what to manually add to your sources.list or you can install synaptic
[07:19] <Jaymac> godofredo - Synaptic is the Ubuntu frontend of apt
[07:19] <Jaymac> Adept is the Kubuntu frontend of apt
[07:19] <Jaymac> you don't need Synaptic if you run Kubuntu
[07:19] <darkramon> xvts: i used mach mailer to connect to my provider's smtp and from there i sent the emails..... it had the options to import a list of emails from an excel file...
[07:19] <John`> how do you extend your desktop to a tv in ubuntu?
[07:19] <Jaymac> FuM: cd Desktop/

[07:20] <darkramon> xvts: and it had another option to import html code
[07:20] <xvts> program in perl
[07:20] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes, but you have to enable the ubuntu-commercial repository first
[07:20] <Jaymac> then: sudo tar -zxvf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[07:20] <gnychis> is it possible that when one person logs in it loads gnome, and when another person logs in it loads fvwm ?

[07:21] <godofredo> Jordan_U, uh, how (wince)?
[07:21] <Jaymac> oops, Jordan_U - didn't mean to write sudo :)

[07:25] <xcocox> Hey, I am trying to set up a samba share on my machine, and I have it working. But when I add it to fstab, i.e. "//windows/share /mnt/samba smbfs username=blah,password=blahblah 0 0", It will free when entering the folder, and if I use "ls" in it, I get "input/output error.". When I do it manually, it doesn't ask for a username, just for a password, and that works. Should I remove "username=blah" from the /etc/fstab file?
[07:25] <pushpop> would vmware-server perform better on 64bit ubuntu or 32bit?
[07:25] <FuM> Jaymac, Now what?
[07:25] <xvts> its not that hard you would be suprised
[07:25] <XimDev> people we should sue microsoft
[07:25] <Dylnuge> ok. If possible, I would try running it from an ext2/3 file system to see if thats the problem.
[07:25] <xcocox> *freeze
[07:26] <XimDev> i am not kidding, i just received a silly email
[07:26] <darkramon> can someone please tell me if there's a program to send massive mails (and no, not for spamming)... i switched from windows to ubuntu and i cannot send news to my customers they are 2000 customers
[07:26] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is The URL http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu?
[07:26] <ilu> how much market share does linux have anyway?
[07:26] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[07:26] <ilu> or is it impossible to measure that

[07:27] <godofredo> Jordan_U, For The URL do i add dapper on the end or something?
[07:27] <Dylnuge> Pushpop-since vmware server supports 64-bit processors, I would say that if you have a 64-bir processor,  VMWare would run best with the 64 bit version on 64 bit Ubuntu. Of course, the same does not go for all programs, so you might want to consider the tradeoffs
[07:27] <Jordan_U> godofredo,  "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main" If you are using Feisty

[07:29] <Jordan_U> XimDev, What does it do exactly?
[07:29] <Dylnuge> The same goes for the guest OS you want to install-I don't have a 64-bit processor, so I am not sure if you can install a 64-bit edition of an OS as a guest if the host version is a 32-bit, but either way, a guest system would function better with a 64-bit host system.

[07:31] <Dylnuge> It takes full advantage of the features your processor provides. The guest systems can be 64-bit or 32-bit as well, so you can still run a 32-bit guest on a 64-bit host, if you want to.

[07:35] <fevel> hey, does anyone have a canon i320 printer
[07:35] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Now that I think of it there may not be an ubuntu-commercial for Dapper, sorry about all that :(
[07:35] <fevel> I cant install it in ubuntu
[07:36] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So Then No Hope On Dapper?
[07:36] <darkramon> so there's no program to connect to my smtp server (the one on my hosting provider) ? and send all the mails
[07:36] <Jaymac> randy, install azureus
[07:36] <Jaymac> sudo aptitude install azureus
[07:37] <mhz`> utorrent :)
[07:37] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You just have to install it manually
[07:37] <mhz`> or rtorrent
[07:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Should I Just Continue Using HowToForge.com Tutorial?
[07:37] <randy> jaymac ok thanks for your help
[07:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Which I Believe Is Manually (Cuz It Has Tar.bz?)
[07:37] <mhz`> wine + utorrent
[07:37] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[07:38] <randy> could someone please tell me what is the X11 driver?
[07:38] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So Once I Install Vmware Server, Do I Use Vmware Player To Access That Virtual OS?
[07:38] <ubunut> hi again
[07:38] <ozzman> Jaymac: i still could not find  a solution.
[07:38] <Jordan_U> darkramon, There is a library for ( libmail-bulkmail-perl ) it so there is probably an application to do it.
[07:39] <anto9us> randy: it's the underlying graphics driver on Linux based systems
[07:39] <darkramon> thank you jordan
[07:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You can either use VMware Server or VMware player
[07:39] <darkramon> i appreciate it
[07:39] <ubunut> wuts the offtopic chan name again plz
[07:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Which is why I think that the player is mostly pointless :)
[07:40] <oxeimon3> are hardware drivers automatically installed when you install ubuntu?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Since VMware Server does everything it does and more, and is also free :)
[07:40] <randy> anto9us ok well i guess i will have to install the graphics driver
[07:40] <anto9us> ubunut: #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:40] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Sounds Like It, Once Last Question, Registration For VMWare?
[07:40] <ubunut> Thank You
[07:40] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Neccessary ?
[07:40] <Jaymac> godofredo, you need to go to their website to register
[07:40] <Jaymac> it's free
[07:40] <Borzo> oxeimon3 : that depends
[07:40] <Jordan_U> godofredo, For VMware Server, yes
[07:41] <ilu> i sure could use a couple of wishes
[07:41] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Okay Still Free Though..So No Worries :) Thank You For Your Help

[07:42] <ozzman> Any one know if their is a set of ATI drivers for X86_64
[07:42] <oxeimon3> Borzo: How can I tell if the drivers have been installed correctly for a certain device?
[07:42] <rico_> ooh, thanks Pricey. :)

[07:42] <rotman> hi, I was wondering: Is it possible to get in grub menu when booting from CD?
[07:42] <dromer> hi all, how can I see which ftpd I am running and how can I add users to that ftpd?
[07:42] <oxeimon3> well, I'm having trouble connecting to the internet
[07:42] <anto9us> rico_: type /msg chanserv list *compiz*
[07:43] <rotman> and use the CD as a recovery disk?
[07:43] <oxeimon3> and I dont know if it's my settings, or if the driver hasn't been installed
[07:43] <web_knows> ilu, yeah, iphone seems to be cool
[07:43] <Borzo> oxeimon3: : well, if it works it means they are installed

[07:44] <Borzo> oxeimon3 : you have anything in particular in mind?
 its hacked pretty good by now aswell

[07:44] <vermoos> is Dell going ahead with pre-packaging ubuntu on their laptops, anyone?
[07:44] <oxeimon3> well, it's called an ET-131x PCI-E Ethernet Controll, by Agere Systems

[07:44] <Pricey> vermoos, in the us yes
[07:44] <kupesoft> Where is the umask for bash set?
[07:45] <Jordan_U> vermoos, Yup dell.com/ubuntu
[07:45] <kupesoft> how about for sftp?
 they have started to sell dells with ubuntus here in sweden but for some reason its more expensive than with windows on them...
[07:45] <amidaniel> kupesoft: ~/.bashrc
[07:45] <oxeimon3> and under the Device manager, it says: "Device Type: Unknown, Capabilities: Unknown"
[07:45] <vermoos> Pricey ironic, since they manufacture their units in ireland
[07:45] <kupesoft> amidaniel: I mean system-wide
[07:45] <vermoos> ilu :( bummer
[07:45] <erUSUL> kupesoft: your .bashrc or .bash_profile files
[07:45] <Sno0py> got a bind_udevd_init problem when trying to run the ubuntu livecd    then goes to INIT: ID "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes / INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel and gets stuck there  help?
[07:45] <Pricey> vermoos, where'd you hear that?
[07:45] <Enron> I booted up and the command dkms is no longer available? does dkms not work in ubuntu?
[07:45] <kupesoft> erUSUL: What about system-wide?
[07:45] <Jkessler> i've seen some screenshots of people who have really cool desktops..  they must be using a different program to do all of those different effects..  could someone give me some names of programs that do things like that?
[07:45] <Borzo> oxeimon3 it sounds like it's a networking card, if so are you able to use the local network?
[07:45] <RoAkSoAx> xvre
[07:45] <amidaniel> kupesoft: Oh :) ... not sure; I think in /usr/local
 well in given time ubuntu will take over more and more... both from other linux distros and windows
[07:45] <vermoos> Pricey when i bought my dell inspiron a couple of years ago
[07:45] <felixhummel> is it possible to use my cups printer in wine?
[07:46] <kupesoft> amidaniel: /usr/local?
[07:46] <Daveyboy> i tried to uninstall apache2 via apt-get remove --purge apache2 , but it is still running??, eben after reboot
[07:46] <Pricey> vermoos, they have a production line in america, where trucks drive in, components go together, and at the end of the line get put into the truck at the end of the line and get driven off.
[07:46] <Jordan_U> Jkessler, Compiz / Beryl ?
[07:46] <oxeimon3> I'm pretty sure it's my ethernet card
[07:46] <oxeimon3> I am unable to use the local network
[07:46] <Jkessler> ahhh thanks..  beryl is what i was thinking of
[07:46] <vermoos> ilu yeah apparantly there will be more linux boxes than microsoft in a few years, due to china, s america, etc
[07:46] <erUSUL> kupesoft: system wide? each user (process) has her umask no system wide umask
[07:46] <Jkessler> Jordan_U, does that come standard with the latest ubuntu release?
[07:46] <oxeimon3> ie, I can't connect to google
[07:46] <amidaniel> kupesoft: Well, what do you mean by system-wide umask? Every user has a unique umask
 it seems poor people (like myself) sucks up these open source technologies more than the western world
[07:47] <Jordan_U> Jkessler, A stripped down version of Compiz does, enable it in System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[07:47] <ilu> all my cash has to go to food... i could never affoard windows vista
[07:47] <Enron> Does Ubuntu come with DKMS it says command not found for me...
[07:47] <Jkessler> ok, thanks
[07:47] <Pricey> Enron, dkms?
[07:47] <skollie> oxeimon3: run ifconfig at the console and see if your card has  valid ip address
[07:48] <oxeimon3> I don't have that command
[07:48] <Daveyboy> i tried to uninstall apache2 via apt-get remove --purge apache2 , but it is still running??, even after reboot, installed it as a package

[07:48] <skollie> oxeimon3: have you tried?
[07:48] <vermoos> ilu yup and the west should too - never good to be dependent on one form of technology
[07:48] <Enron> for snapapi
[07:48] <oxeimon3> I just did
[07:48] <oxeimon3> bash: ipconfig: command not found
[07:48] <erUSUL> oxeimon3: ifconfig with f
[07:48] <Pici> Daveyboy: you installed it from a .deb or from the ubuntu repos?
 well thouse who go with linux knows more
[07:48] <skollie> oxeimon3: look closely - iFconfig
[07:49] <Daveyboy> pici, repos
[07:49] <oxeimon3> ohh
[07:49] <oxeimon3> :-D
[07:49] <troopperi_> erUSUL: is that integated in amarok?
[07:49] <oxeimon3> what should I be looking for?
[07:49] <skollie> the ip address of yor card
[07:49] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: IP addy on your ethernet device
[07:49] <vermoos> ilu more importantly we know what we don't know... known unknowns and all that
[07:49] <erUSUL> troopperi_: nope, amarok can use *libxine* as backend instead of gstreamer
[07:49] <Enron> Anyone know Why Dkms is missing from ubuntu or how I can install it
[07:50] <erUSUL> !info libxine > troopperi_
[07:50] <troopperi_> erUSUL: ok, thnx
[07:50] <oxeimon3> well, there's something thats like: "HWaddr 00:19:21:63:3A:C5"
[07:50] <oxeimon3> that sounds like my mac address
 well i just think 'open' is the way of the future....
[07:50] <Borzo> oxeimon3 : it is
[07:50] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: And the line after that?
[07:50] <umwStudent> I have the dumbest possible Ubuntu question: how do you know what version you're on? (Dapper, Edgy, etc.) Is there some command that does this?
[07:50] <amidaniel> Should be "inet addr ..."
[07:50] <kbrooks_> umwStudent:
[07:50] <Borzo> Umngane : use the uname command
[07:50] <oxeimon3> well, there are two sections: "eth0", and "eth0:avah", both sections have that first line
[07:50] <kbrooks_> lsb_release -a
[07:51] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: And what's the second line on eth0?
[07:51] <kbrooks_> Borzo, no.
[07:51] <oxeimon3> for "eth0", the line after is: "UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1"
[07:51] <umwStudent> many thanks, kbrooks!
[07:51] <darwin81> How can I rar a folder into different files of specific size?
[07:51] <Pici> Daveyboy: hmm .Does it show up as installed in `dpkg -s apache2`
[07:51] <umwStudent> follow-up question: is it true that I can't run Firefox 2 on Dapper?
[07:51] <kbrooks_> Borzo, uname -a doesn't work as expected. it shows kernel
[07:51] <oxeimon3> for "eth0:avah", the line after is "inet addr:169.254.6.70 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0"
[07:51] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Alright, so it sounds like you're not getting an IP address. Click on the network manager on your taskbar and click "Manual configuration"
[07:51] <Pricey> umwStudent, you can but shouldn't... what's wrong with 1.5 ?
[07:51] <kbrooks_> umwStudent, no. you can install it in your home directory.
[07:52] <erUSUL> umwStudent: you can if you manually install it
[07:52] <erUSUL> !firefox | umwStudent
[07:52] <ubotu> umwStudent: firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[07:52] <Borzo> : kbrooks_ i could be wrong :)
[07:52] <kbrooks_> Pricey, he doesn't have to install 2.0 globally
[07:52] <Daveyboy> pici, yes it does
[07:52] <metbsd> kde has no sound
[07:52] <erUSUL> umwStudent: check this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion
[07:52] <kbrooks_> Borzo, but that is all it shows.
[07:52] <umwStudent> I'm trying to use a web application that requires firefox 2 (the web page explicitly says "this does not work with earlier versions of firefox")
[07:52] <Pici> Daveyboy: sounds like you didnt remove it then
[07:52] <Borzo> brb
[07:52] <erUSUL> umwStudent: upgrade to edgy then
[07:53] <Zach42> Hey, ive got a problem with my screen blanking after 10 minutes, despite changeing the setting in preferences > power management.  Any suggestions?
[07:53] <ny00123> hi
[07:53] <amidaniel> omeimon3: Or go to Desktop / Preferences / Network connections
[07:53] <ny00123> For using Wine fullscreen in Compiz-Fusion, extrawm plugin with fullscreen key = the solution?
[07:53] <kbrooks_> amidaniel, and erm
[07:53] <Daveyboy> pici, what commnad should I use then?
[07:53] <Jordan_U> umwStudent, lsb_release -a
[07:53] <oxeimon3> alright I've done that
[07:53] <kbrooks_> amidaniel, eth0:avahi is not eth0
[07:53] <skollie> Zach42: Have you disabled your screensaver?
[07:53] <oxeimon3> There are 4 tabs, Connections, General, DNS, and Hosts
[07:53] <amidaniel> kbrooks_: I'm aware :)
[07:53] <ny00123> (doesn't work with the Prey demo for me; but the game works very well, high sound quality; and no 'gnome bars' if not using Compiz)
[07:53] <Pici> Daveyboy: apt-get remove apache2
[07:53] <kbrooks_> amidaniel,  he (and you) need to look at eth0, not eth0:avahi
[07:54] <Zach42> skollie:  I have a different screen saver set, one that isnt a blank screen.
[07:54] <Daveyboy> pici, thats what i did with the --purge option
[07:54] <amidaniel> kbrooks_: That's why I told him to look at eth0, which is not getting an IP addy assigned ;)
[07:54] <umwStudent> Is upgrading from Dapper->Edgy a Major Big Deal(tm)? (Like, it will take the entire day or more, and at least three annoying things are bound to go wrong?)
[07:54] <kbrooks_> amidaniel, also, he needs to copy and paste the full ifconfig output for eth0
[07:54] <kbrooks_> amidaniel, read: all of it
[07:54] <ny00123> umwStudent, you could have a few problems
[07:54] <umwStudent> or is it a slam dunk, like using Synaptic Package Manager to stay up to date?
[07:54] <ny00123> the download highly time depends on what you have installed
[07:54] <amidaniel> kbrooks_: Why are you talking to me and not him? O.o
[07:54] <oxeimon3> kbrookes are you talking to me?
[07:54] <ny00123> The more (DEB) packages you have installed, the more the upgrade size and time.
[07:54] <amidaniel> I can tell from the first too lines that no IP address has been assigned, so it's likely a dhcp problem
[07:55] <oxeimon3> I can't copy paste it, since I'm on different computers.
[07:55] <Pici> oxeimon3: use the pastebin.
[07:55] <amidaniel> Pici: He doesn't have internet on that computer :D
[07:55] <oxeimon3> but the rest of the eth0 section says "RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0", and a similar line beginning with "TX packets"
[07:55] <Pici> o
[07:55] <oxeimon3> it also has "collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000"
[07:56] <kbrooks_> oxeimon3, ah k, listen to amidaniel then
[07:56] <oxeimon3> then, "RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:) (0.0 b)"
[07:56] <oxeimon3> and "Interrupt:22 Base address:0x2000"
[07:56] <erUSUL> !upgrade | umwStudent
[07:56] <ubotu> umwStudent: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:56] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Okay, two things -- one: go to your network settings. Two: Go to Desktop / Preferences / System Log
[07:56] <francis_> m11:
[07:56] <francis_> hey i am trying to make menuconfig
[07:56] <oxeimon3> I don't have that directory
[07:57] <oxeimon3> Desktop has nothing in it

[07:57] <metbsd> unix_connect: can't connect to server (unix:/tmp/ksocket-necro/-435a-4696d8c6)
[07:57] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: The menu, not the actual desktop :)
[07:57] <oxeimon3> There's no System Log under Preferences
[07:57] <skollie> francis: what are you wanting to do?
[07:57] <oxeimon3> ah
[07:57] <oxeimon3> in Administration
[07:57] <oxeimon3> k
[07:57] <oxeimon3> I'm there

[07:58] <skollie> francis_: what are you wanting to do?
[07:59] <Maximander> time-of-day
[07:59] <bliffle> did I finally get into the ubuntu IRC?

[08:00] <oxeimon3> amidaniel: I have both windows open. What should I do now
[08:01] <skollie> francis_: what happens whyen you enter make menuconfig?
[08:01] <Maximander> just installed fiesty on laptop last night (was running gentoo bfore) and gdm just killed itself...  syslog says gdm cannot safely open /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth... any ideas?

[08:01] <Enron> Anyone know Why Dkms is missing from ubuntu or how I can install it
[08:02] <randy> could someone please tell me why i am getting error 1273 when im installing intel grpahics driver
[08:02] <FuM> How do I get a custom login screen?
[08:02] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Woa, sorry .. my battery just died on me. Back now :)
[08:02] <KI4IKL> There is a program, I can't think of the name of it...It monitors like your processor usage, disk usage, etc...anyone know then ame of it?
[08:02] <SleepingSloth> hello all... I've got a (potentially silly) question..... can I run an ATi (AGP) card alongside an nvidia (PCI) card ?
[08:02] <bliffle> I've had feisty 7.04 up about a month on IBM Thinkpad T40, but I have no sound. It failed before but fiddling and resarting fixed it. not now.
[08:02] <oxeimon3> amidaniel: can you see my private message
[08:03] <erUSUL> Enron: why do you need it?
[08:03] <Jaymac> FuM - System - Administration - Login Window
[08:03] <GreenJello^Work> ok...  i just turned on desktop effects and i get a blank white screen, can't see anything
[08:03] <Daveyboy> anyone know why after installing apache2 with apt-get and then removing apache2 with 'apt-get remove --purge apache2' and rebooting it is still running?
[08:03] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: You need to register and ident to send pms on freenode
[08:03] <Enron> because I need it to install the acronis agent I need to update snapapi
[08:03] <GreenJello^Work> is there a hotkey to get out?
[08:03] <oxeimon3> ohh
[08:03] <oxeimon3> meh
[08:03] <FuM> Where do I go to get new ones? And Thank you for helping me with Flash Jaymac.
[08:03] <Enron> why do I get a question as an answer lol
[08:03] <oxeimon3> alright anyway
[08:03] <oxeimon3> so I have both windows open
[08:04] <oxeimon3> System LOg Viewer, and Network settings
[08:04] <Jaymac> FuM - try here: http://gnomelook.org/
[08:04] <oxeimon3> vaat now?
[08:04] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Okay, under system log you need to look for DHCP_REQUEST messages
[08:04] <Vlet> KI4IKL: If you right click on your top bar and click 'add item to panel' you can add the system monitor
[08:04] <amidaniel> Should be under .. Network log or the like (not sure what the log is called on ubuntu)
[08:04] <SleepingSloth> anyone got any idea if I can run an ATi card *and* an nvidia card at the same time?
[08:04] <FuM> Thank you.
[08:04] <skollie> francis_: I have to go. Will be back later, but perhaps someone else can help you in the meantime
[08:04] <Daveyboy> anyone know why after installing apache2 with apt-get and then removing apache2 with 'apt-get remove --purge apache2' and rebooting it is still running?
[08:05] <erUSUL> Enron: ubuntu does no come with dkms afaik so you will have to install it by hand i'm afraid
[08:05] <Jaymac> FuM - welcome
[08:05] <chrisjs169> how can i remount my usb drive as read only?
[08:05] <oxeimon3> amidaniel: no network log section, but there is a syslog, with a lot of DCHPDISCOVER messages
[08:06] <amidaniel> oceimon3: Ah, alright, that's what you want :)
[08:06] <Jaymac> FuM - it is GDM themes you want by the way :)
[08:06] <Maximander> chrisjs169: umount /<mountpoint> && mount -o ro /dev/sd<number> /<mountpoint>
[08:06] <FuM> Haha, Jaymac you mind reader =] 
[08:06] <LurkerXXX123> dumb question: is the "servers are having issues" in the topic why I can't find the linux-tree source in the repository?
[08:06] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: And are you getting back DHCP failures?
[08:06] <KI4IKL> I want one you install...I just can't think of the name of it, I think it starts with a G or something.
[08:06] <smooth_penguin> what package does ncurses come in for ubuntu?
[08:06] <oxeimon3> and some things that say: "No DHCPOFFERS received"
[08:06] <FuM> Right when I turn around to type on my laptop, you already answered my question =] 
[08:06] <FlimFlamMan> the Window Selector provides a drop-down list of window titles.  is there a way to "annotate" the window titles, so i can distinguish between two windows that have the same title?
[08:06] <StucKman> smooth_penguin: libncurses5
[08:06] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Alrighty .. that's what I figured :)
[08:07] <rico_> hey what mp3 player would you guys recommend, by the way?
[08:07] <amidaniel> Are you using DHCP on your network?
[08:07] <oxeimon3> yes
[08:07] <amidaniel> I.e., dynamic address allocation
[08:07] <Maximander> chrisjs169: or try the properties in whatever desktop enviornment you use
[08:07] <oxeimon3> well
[08:07] <FuM> Jaymac, One last question.
[08:07] <will_> xmms
[08:07] <Jaymac> rico_ banshee is my favourite :)
[08:07] <oxeimon3> basically, on this computer(the one that works), everything is set to automatic
[08:07] <Jaymac> FuM... ?
[08:07] <oxeimon3> "automatically obtain ip address...automatically find dns server...etc
[08:07] <wabash> I'm using Ubuntu 7. It mounts data CDs properly, and assigns them a device of /dev/scd0. But when I put in an audio cd, /dev/scd0 is connected to nothing. Has anyone else ever seen this problem? Anyone know where to find the device for an audio cd?
[08:07] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Wired network?
[08:07] <FuM> I have this Suite Installer that includes splash screen and everything. I run it and it extracts but nothing changes.
[08:08] <RkyRaccoon> !dvd
[08:08] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[08:08] <rico_> thanks, will try Jaymac :)
[08:08] <Jaymac> after you extract it you have to install it
[08:08] <oxeimon3> yes
[08:08] <Jaymac> rico... when you try to play an mp3 you will be told mp3 support is not enabled, but it will download and install the correct codec for you :)
[08:08] <FuM> I ran the installer and it extracts the files.
[08:08] <Jaymac> ok
[08:08] <SleepingSloth> anyone got any idea if I can run an ATi card *and* an nvidia card at the same time?
[08:08] <oxeimon3> I just got two more messages: dhclient: No DHCOFFERS received.
[08:08] <Jaymac> no SleepingSloth
[08:08] <oxeimon3> No working leases in persistent databse - sleeping."
[08:08] <FuM> It installs the Package
[08:09] <soneil> Daveyboy: apache2 is a mess of metapackages.  apache2 is a convenience to install one of the thread models of apache2 ... which all require apache2.2-common.  If you wish to remove apache2, remove apache2.2-common, and it should take away anything that depends on it too
[08:09] <Jaymac> right..
[08:09] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Okay, try one really simple thing (this is what worked for me =D) ... unplug the ethernet cable from your computer
[08:09] <Jaymac> well, then I guess you will have to go to the themer and select the new themes
[08:09] <SleepingSloth> Jaymac - is that "no, you cant run to together" ?
[08:09] <Jaymac> SleepingSloth, I VERY much doubt it
[08:09] <oxeimon3> done
[08:09] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: And then once your network manager has realized it's disconnected, plug it back in
[08:09] <chrisjs169> Maximander: it worked - thank you very much
[08:09] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: does the ATI require it;s drivers
[08:09] <Maximander> ?
[08:10] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - yes... but maybe i could use one of them with vga drivers...?
[08:10] <oxeimon3> what will happen when it realises its not connected?
[08:10] <oxeimon3> there's no response so far
[08:10] <oxeimon3> lol
[08:10] <kaptein> !version
[08:10] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[08:10] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: if Xorg/kernel supports the ATI with the built in drivers (my X600 does) then i see no reason you couldn't have fglrx in there too
[08:10] <Maximander> for the nvidia
[08:10] <wabash> Anyone know where to find the dev for an audio cd?
[08:11] <amidaniel> oxeimon3: Under your network settings, select your wired network, go to preferences, change the value of the dropdown to something else and then change it back to DHCP. Then hit okay
[08:11] <KI4IKL> I have a Logitech Trackball mouse...every once in a while, the cursor locks up and wont move, and I have to restart to get it to work again.
[08:11] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: but you certainly can't (easily) have both of the propriatary drivers loaded
[08:11] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - the AGP card is a 9700 pro, and the PCI card is a 5500 fx, so it would seem to make more sense to use the ATI card if only one of them can have the prop drivers
[08:11] <amidaniel> ( really hackish .. but it wakes things up :D )
[08:11] <KI4IKL> I've already added "sw_cursor" "true" to my xorg.conf file...that was supposed to fix it.
[08:12] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - my ATi card is using fglrx at the moment.....
[08:12] <Maximander> anyone here experienced with GDM? i'm kinda stuck...
[08:12] <randy> could someone please tell me why i am getting error 1273 when im installing intel grpahics driver
[08:12] <beni> lmao why does ubntu server 6.06 installation need alsa drivers? :P
[08:12] <Newbie_Dude> OK, so I downloaded a program for Ubuntu off the internet... blah151src.tar.bz2... I then extracted it. But I open it and it's full of stuff I have no idea how to install with. :P There's a "src" folder, do I have to like... Compile it or something? (;>_<)
[08:13] <tarzeau> beni: acoustic signals can be important, even on servers
[08:13] <Maximander> SleepingSloth: i'd try the built in radeon drivers, they're working well for me at the moment (even if for un-related reasons, gdm hit the fan)
[08:13] <oxeimon3> alright, I've changed it back to dhcp now
[08:13] <oxeimon3> now I'll plus back in the cable?
[08:13] <tarzeau> beni: my firewall plays the national anthem if someone logs in
[08:13] <kaptein> Newbie_Dude: probabely ;)
[08:13] <amidaniel> Newbie_Dude: ./configure followed by make and make install

[08:14] <erUSUL> Newbie_Dude: you shouldn't be compiling from sources if you are new to all of this... are you sure the programs isn't in the repositories?
[08:14] <SleepingSloth> maximander - I mean so i can make the approriate change in xorg
[08:14] <tarzeau> beni: pc speaker sucks

[08:14] <tarzeau> beni: you can remove alsa stuff

[08:14] <Newbie_Dude> @Everyone: OK, I'll try to find a "in the repositories" version. If not then I'll read the readme and try to compile. xD thanks for the links too. Be back in a bit.
[08:14] <beni> tarzeau: I know, I just wondered why it's included ;)

[08:16] <Maximander> anyone have any ideas about gdm not starting? "Cannot safely open /var/lib/gdm/:0/Xauth"
[08:16] <SleepingSloth> Maximander - I have a feeling desktop-effects and beryl etc didnt like the 9700pro with the built in driver, if i remember right... i dont think its as well supported as the X range - but I could try that, alongside the 5500 with nvidia-glx and see where that takes me - I'm not really a gamer any more....

[08:27] <amidaniel> This is, in any case, a quite common problem -- I was able to fix it for myself, but the way I fixed it didn't work for you apparently :)
[08:27] <amidaniel> Sorry :)

[08:28] <glencore> Maximander: say the problem ;)
[08:28] <oxeimon3> well, I don't really know what you mean by an ip address... ifconfig gives me an "HWaddr 00:19:21:64:3A:C5"
[08:28] <oxeimon3> now that's my mac address right?

[08:34] <skollie> oxeimon3: try adding the following line at the end of /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 208.67.222.222

[08:37] <oxeimon3> now can I connect to another computer?
[08:37] <liorkamer> o.k tnx
[08:37] <user_> shit
[08:37] <GSMX> hi, i just installed ubuntu, but it seems ubuntu doesn't see that my monitor can handle a 1280x1024 screen resolution, how can i solve this?
[08:37] <Maximander> oooooookey... my gdm issue is (sorta) solved... now i have a directory (/var/lib/gdm-corrupted) which I cannot delete..
[08:37] <skollie> oxeimon3: while you are having this problem, because it is either a DNS or a DHCP problem, I think
[08:37] <RkyRaccoon> anyone know how to change touchpad settings?
[08:37] <systemd0wn> bruenig, good idea.  there is "NetworkManager" , "NetworkManagerD", and "nm-applet" the last probably just being the GUI front-end
[08:38] <Jaymac> user_, Anjuta is the best GTK C++ IDE
[08:38] <oxeimon3> btw, when firefox opens, it now tries to find google for about 20 sec before saying "Server not found"
[08:38] <randy> bruenig could u help me install my intel drivers
[08:38] <glencore> user_: have you tried glade?
[08:38] <bruenig> systemd0wn, the second one would be the daemon and the first one is likely the actual thing located at /usr/sbin/networkmanager, you could probably kill the first two
[08:39] <Maximander> root@seawolf  : /var/lib/ # rm -rf gdm-corrupted... cannot lstat gdm-corrupted/.gdminfo : permission denied.
[08:39] <user_> Jaymac: yea but when I click RMB I don't know what new file I must create to make new program
[08:39] <systemd0wn> bruenig, i like that idea.  if it breaks i will just re-start them
[08:39] <glencore> Maximander: you using sudo?
[08:39] <Jaymac> user read a bit about anjuta
[08:39] <skollie> oxeimon3: have you tried restarting your network?
[08:40] <KI4IKL> What is a good program for media and having large playlists that I can save?
[08:40] <Maximander> glencore : *root*@seawolf <path> #
[08:40] <GSMX> hi, i just installed ubuntu, but it seems ubuntu doesn't see that my monitor can handle a 1280x1024 screen resolution, how can i solve this? (1280x1024 doesn't show up at the preferences/screen resolution)
[08:40] <Maximander> not user@seawolf $
[08:40] <kc5goi> Has anyone here worked with getting the ATI ES1000 RN50 to get to full resolution?  I am trying to get it to 1280x1024.  xresprode says the display is capable and Dell did too?
[08:40] <skollie> KI4IKL: have you tried amarok?
[08:40] <oxeimon3> I've unplugged and replugged the cable...
[08:40] <KI4IKL> nahkiss, i'll try it...also, where can I get the mp3 codecs, skollie ?
[08:40] <kc5goi> GSMX, what video card do you have, I have the same issue.  Best I get is 1024x768
[08:40] <younghacker> can someone help me configure access permissions on postgresql
[08:40] <oxeimon3> I've changed the connection from DHCP to something else, and then changed it back
[08:41] <kaptein> GSMX, in a terminal type gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change all the entries saying 11024x768 to 1280x1024
[08:41] <skollie> KI4IKL: when you try to play mp3's, amarok will ask if you want to install support for it. say yes
[08:41] <skollie> oxeimon3: do this - sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:41] <KI4IKL> kk
[08:41] <systemd0wn> bruenig, for the record they both have man pages, NetworkManager and NetworkManagerDispatcher
[08:42] <oxeimon3> brb
[08:42] <Maximander> younghacker: i just setup postgresql on ubuntu over the weekend... http://bioinformaticsonline.co.uk/2007/02/26/postgresql_on_ubuntu_linux_how_to is a good guide
[08:42] <bruenig> I have never used it like I said, I always used cli to connect until just a few days ago when I found wifi-radar which is nice
[08:42] <younghacker> thanks a lot
[08:42] <mhz`> ?
[08:42] <systemd0wn> bruenig, ya i used wifi-radar for a bit, but i guess im getting used to networkmanager
[08:42] <mhz`> young, use mysql!
[08:42] <mhz`> :)
[08:43] <Maximander> younghacker: just be warned though, if running headless and using phppgadmin, the port is wrong...
[08:43] <godofredo> Why Does VmWare Want All The Info When I Register?
[08:43] <oxeimon> kk
[08:43] <Maximander> younghacker: ubuntu pushes it up one to 5433 instead of 5432
[08:43] <t2> when feisty is logging in... just before it displays KDE splash screen, my monitor goes black and gives a prompt that the resolution is not right... then after few seconds it logs in an all is normal ?   i just got things working with xorg.conf and widescreen anyone know why this could be happening ?
[08:43] <oxeimon> same problem
[08:43] <mhz`> mysql + phpmyadmin w/ apache
[08:43] <godofredo> Has Anyone Registered With Them Before?
[08:43] <mhz`> LAMP stack
[08:43] <Maximander> mhz`: WHY?!
[08:43] <pder> does anyone know if ubuntu has support for input devices such as keyboards and a mouse?  i wish to use a keyboard to enter text into my computer system.  i would also like to use a mouse to point at various objects on the screen and perform operations using the mouse buttons.  is this possible?
[08:43] <oxeimon> DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7...
[08:43] <mhz`> LAMP stack!!
[08:43] <bruenig> systemd0wn, I like that you can launch it with sudo therefore meaning no password, I know networkmanager requires keyring, and that it is standalone so I can shortcut with keyboard seeing as its only use is on a laptop and all
[08:43] <younghacker> ok
[08:43] <younghacker> so is that a config change i hae to make
[08:44] <oxeimon> 3 of those, and then, "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent databse - sleeping."
[08:44] <Maximander> mhz`: triggers, constraints, etc... mySQL and postgresql are different things for different jobs
[08:44] <pi3> someone had problems with updating openoffice.org-core 2.2.0?
[08:44] <t2> i had to boot PCLinuxOS 2007 live CD and look at its xorg.conf then copy things from there into ubuntu. thanks to the excellent hardware detection in PCLOS2007
[08:44] <mhz`> true, i just like mysql :/
[08:44] <mhz`> don't hate me because i'm beautiful :)
[08:44] <Optimus55> does anyone know how to setup an EVDO card to automatically authenticate without entering username and password?
[08:44] <Maximander> mhz`: when you need postgres (or db2, or oracle) you really do, and mySQL won't cut it.
[08:44] <skollie> oxeimon: problem with your device not being able to get an address from your DHCP server
[08:45] <mhz`> yeah i'm mostly stuck with access/mssql since i work for a windows hosting company
[08:45] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Are You There?
[08:45] <Maximander> mhz`: don't get me wrong, I like mySQL too, but telling people to use it over postgres typically looks uninformed, since when people move towards postgres, then tend to know they that they need it
[08:45] <skollie> oxeimon: try rebooting, but if that does not work, you'll have to speak to your admin people, I think
[08:45] <oxeimon> skollie: what could be causing that?
[08:45] <Newbie_Dude> OK, so I finally figured out that Multiverse was already enabled by default. I tried reading the README file and still can't figure out to compile. Is there another way to go about this? I couldn't find ZSNES in the Synaptic, which is the only way I know how to install something.
[08:46] <Maximander> mysql is nice and fast though.
[08:46] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes ( I was away but I'm back )
[08:46] <systemd0wn> bruenig, dont think i ever used the shortcut
[08:46] <Pricey> !find zsnes
[08:46] <ubotu> Found: zsnes
[08:46] <Pricey> !info | zsnes | Newbie_Dude
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about info - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <Pricey> !info zsnes | Newbie_Dude
[08:46] <ubotu> newbie_dude: zsnes: Emulator of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (TM). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.420-2.1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 513 kB, installed size 3232 kB (Only available for i386)
[08:46] <Optimus55> i'm trying to get my evdo card to connect with wvdial but it says cant authenticate with username/pword. in Windows i dont have to enter any username or pass
[08:46] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, were you using capital letters?
[08:46] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  Linux is case senestive. :)
[08:46] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, anyone know of a way i can flash a compact flash card while im in ubuntu?
[08:46] <Newbie_Dude> @Pricey: I'm not sure, I'll open Add/Remove again and search for "zsnes" in "all available"
[08:47] <systemd0wn> i have always used little windows apps
[08:47] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, do "sudo apt-get install zsnes" in a terminal
[08:47] <Maximander> @anyone: any ideas to delete a corrupted folder which even root is getting lstat permission denied?
[08:47] <pder> does ubuntu have support for storage devices?  i have a hard disk i would like to use with my personal computer system.
[08:47] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Am To The Part In The Installation Of VmWare Server Where It Wants The Serial #. I'm Really Not Comfortable Inputing The Info THe Registration Requires, Any Ideas?
[08:47] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  using 'which zsnes' sshows it installed in  /usr/bin/zsnes
[08:47] <systemd0wn> pder, just a regular IDE drive?
[08:47] <Dr_willis> pder,  care to clarify that?
[08:47] <Ubuzy> Hi :|
[08:48] <Dr_willis> pder,   i use external usb/firewire/ whatever disks/drives/thumgdrives all the time
[08:48] <Ubuzy> Hi, some knows where is the mod_security in Feisty? it is not in the repos...
[08:48] <santims> is there a default firewall set up or built into Ubuntu?????
[08:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Make a free gmail account, register with it with no identifiable info, use the registration :)
[08:48] <Anlar> santims: thank god no
[08:48] <Dr_willis> santims,  not enabled by default.. but its installed
[08:48] <Jordan_U> !firewall | santims
[08:48] <ubotu> santims: 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).
[08:48] <Dr_willis> !firewall
[08:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Like Make Up A Name?
[08:48] <Optimus55> has anyone gotten PPP to dial evdo in Ubuntu????
[08:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Sure, don't see why it wouldn't work
[08:48] <Pricey> godofredo, there are disposable email addresses availiable on the net
[08:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Will They Hunt Me Down For It? I Guess I Could Use 2prong.com Also
[08:48] <Newbie_Dude> OK I typed "sudo apt-get install zsnes" and got this E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:48] <santims> thank you all, i guess i am just having troubles with my airport
[08:49] <Maximander> santims: also might look into shorewall.
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, close add/remove programs
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, or synaptic
[08:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Why would they?
[08:49] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, and synaptic sorry
[08:49] <skollie> Newbie_Dude: close any other package manager you have open
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, No Clue.
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, What About Phone #?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, They only care about whether or not you use it in a commercial setting
[08:49] <Ubuzy> some knows where is the mod_security (modesurity.org) in Feisty? it is not in the repos...
[08:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How Would I Let Them Know I Don't?
[08:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You don't need to, just don't :)
[08:50] <mhz`> i cannot wait to boot back into ubunutu
[08:50] <mhz`> ubuntu*
[08:50] <mhz`> this blows
[08:50] <godofredo> Jordan_U, K Thx.
[08:50] <Optimus55> im in xp now... cus ubuntu doesnt want to authenticate my evdo connection :(
[08:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, If I can remember what account I used I think it gave me two registration numbers
[08:50] <mhz`> i'm in xp now b/c i'm working
[08:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Good Idea! But, Can You Find IT?
[08:51] <Optimus55> i'm in xp now, cus it lets me get online into ubuntu irc chans
[08:51] <stefg> !dialup | Optimus55
[08:51] <ubotu> Optimus55: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[08:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Did You Use Your Info? Or Did You Make It Up Like You Suggested?
[08:52] <Optimus55> i have no problem getting it to recognise the modem. thats cool. it just asks for username/pass
[08:52] <sako> hi
[08:52] <Newbie_Dude> I'm gonna kill this GAIM program, can't figure out how to turn off the "xxx left the room" "xxx entered the room" messages >_<
[08:52] <Optimus55> its an evdo card, so i dont have one. supposed to be automatic. doesnt ask for one in xp
[08:52] <bruenig> Newbie_Dude, guifications plugin probably
[08:53] <stefg> Optimus55: so what authenmtication uses that ISP? pap, chap, some proprietary crap?
[08:53] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I don't remember, I did it a while ago, I am not very paranoid about VMware having publicly available info on me though ( although I can see why some people would be )
[08:53] <Optimus55> chap
[08:53] <Anlar> Newbie_Dude: you can't. gaim is piece of s..
[08:53] <bruenig> Anlar, you are wrong
[08:53] <Optimus55> oh evdo, its like.. i guess yall have verizon wireless high speed cards
[08:53] <maximander> Dr_willis: 3g wireless broadband from verizon
[08:53] <systemd0wn> question, anyone know of a physical write program ? for writing images to CF cards?
[08:54] <Dr_willis> maximander,  eww... Im too poor to afford those.
[08:54] <Dr_willis> :)
[08:54] <stefg> Optimus55: chap so looking at the logs to see where it fails would be interesting. Sure you have the right credentials served?
[08:54] <askand> I am using BUM to disable services I dont need..what does these services do? postfix, xinetd, inetutils-inetd? Can I disable some of them?
[08:54] <assasukasse> hi, someone uses openvpn?
[08:54] <beni> I got an Linux-only (Ubuntu-only) network, how can i share files?
[08:55] <Optimus55> well when i wvdial, everything goes through, then it says "authentication failed" some error code "due to incorrect username/password"
[08:55] <Newbie_Dude> Anyone know a good SNES emulator for Ubuntu? I gave up on ZSNES, hehe.
[08:55] <Dr_willis> askand,   google is a good place to start. :) but most of those - you proberly want to leave running. (well perhaps not postfix)
[08:55] <b0ne> beni: http://google.com/search?q=nfs
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  i use zsnes all the time. it works fine for me.
[08:55] <maximander> beni: you could use samba, or nfs
[08:55] <amr> hey i have a problem with samba on ubuntu 7.04 and vista
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  do a 'apt-cache search nes'
[08:55] <Optimus55> file:///E:/Ubuntu/EV-DO.htm
[08:55] <stefg> beni: the meanest, leanest way is using ssh (sshfs,sftp)
[08:55] <Optimus55> oops
[08:55] <b0ne> leanest?
[08:55] <maximander> stefg: lean?
[08:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I know nothing about evdo but this might help..  http://dryicezero.blogspot.com/2005/12/sprint-sierra-580-evdo-card-linux.html
[08:55] <uberushaximus> is there a workaround to get the pixma ip1600 (ip2200) printer drivers in X86_64?
[08:56] <Pricey> Newbie_Dude, snes9x?
[08:56] <stefg> compared to samba or nfs
[08:56] <Dr_willis> uberushaximus,  you mean ya got it working under 32bit linux?
[08:56] <b0ne> someone ban that guy
[08:56] <beni> stefg: thats kinda too uberleet ;)
[08:56] <maximander> stefg: 1024bit encryption != lean
[08:56] <Newbie_Dude> @Dr_willis I typed that in a terminal and got spammed xD
[08:56] <uberushaximus> Dr_willis: no, but I've read about it
[08:56] <amr> hey please help me i can't share files between vista and ubuntu
[08:56] <kevinl--> is there a way to browse ubuntu packages and download them via http without installing them?
[08:56] <beni> b0ne: need for speed? kewl :)
[08:56] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  time to learn to use apt.
[08:56] <stefg> maximander: ok, not cpu wise, but protocol wise
[08:56] <Optimus55> okay thanks.
[08:56] <b0ne> yes !
[08:56] <tarzeau> kevinl--: packages.ubuntu.com ?
[08:57] <Dr_willis> uberushaximus,  I got one of those.. would be nice to get it going under linux. last i looked the support well.. wasent there. :)
[08:57] <b0ne> race cars drive your files around, it's pretty neat
[08:57] <amr> please i can't share files between vista and ubuntu
[08:57] <maximander> stefg: umm.. ssh still has overhead, on par with nfs.
[08:57] <amr> but i can share between vista and xp
[08:57] <Optimus55> i saw that blog but same problem, it asks u to enter ur verizon number? i dont hav1, not in verizon, or have any kind of username/pass
[08:57] <stefg> maximander: but ssh works :-)
[08:57] <Optimus55> http://samat.org/weblog/20070128-sprints-evdo-mobile-broadband-on-ubuntu-linux.html this guide has great details
[08:57] <maximander> stefg: you want lean, look into kernel level ATA over Ethernet
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Item 5 in particular
[08:57] <Dr_willis> amr,  ive noticed that vista is a real PAIN with the samba stuff.. not sure whats going on with it all. As  a eay way to get files around. ya could install ssh on linux, and use winscp on windows.
[08:57] <Optimus55> but i'm not sure what to make of it, looks like gibberish to me
[08:57] <stefg> maximander: iScsi?
[08:58] <oxeimon> skollie you still there
[08:58] <HHP2K> Hey guys, why does my mouse wheel act as a back/forward button when I spin it? How do I fix this?
[08:58] <skollie> oxeimon: yes
[08:58] <amr> ok but i am new to linux
[08:58] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Thx
[08:58] <amr> and installed ssh before but couldn't  use itr
[08:58] <oxeimon> skollie: I just booted to my XP install
[08:58] <Optimus55> yeah i checked item 5, but in xp its automatic, like i just press connect and the modem automatically authenticates, i dont enter any details, so i dont have any
[08:58] <Dr_willis> amr,  thats why theres dozens of starter guides out there. :)
[08:58] <oxeimon> and it turns out I have two hardware mac addresses
[08:58] <Dr_willis> amr,  and this channel of course.
[08:59] <amr> thank u
[08:59] <Hoxzer> hi, amarok hangs at start is it a bug ?
[08:59] <berent> opera is getting closed due to segmentation fault. what to do
[08:59] <oxeimon> the one I gave you corresponds to an unconnected piece of hardware or something
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: try the login as your phone number and pass as the last 4 digits of your number
[08:59] <amr> but is there a work around vista to share, MAC OS X did it

[09:13] <Vlet> what does the 'network' clause in the interfaces file referr to?
[09:13] <skollie> oxeimon: when you looked at your network settings, did it show you two devices?
[09:13] <mav_> hmmm
[09:13] <oxeimon> it shows two connections...
[09:14] <oxeimon> a wired connection, and an 'unconfigured' modem connection
[09:14] <Optimus55> okay i had the page still open, i took a screen grab and uploading to flikr

[09:18] <skollie> oxeimon: but you only have one card, right?
[09:18] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: sure, i'd appreciate it

[09:18] <RkyRaccoon> im thinking of trying a different distro of ubuntu which would you recommend? Kubuntu, Xubuntu?
[09:18] <skollie> oxeimon: have you tried connecting the cable to the other card?
[09:18] <oxeimon> because, there's another one, that's listed under RS480 PCI Bridge -> ET-131x PCI-E Ethernet Controller
[09:18] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: I'm trying to compile something, and on the website it says I should have the "GDK+ 2.4 or later development package, the ALSA library and it's development package, and SDL 1.2.11 and it's development package"

[09:19] <magnetron> welcome canabu
[09:19] <oxeimon> that's the one that the XP install has been using, and I know works
[09:19] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, What are you trying to compile?
[09:19] <oxeimon> I haven't, but ideally, I'd like to have both OS's run on the same network card if possible

[09:19] <ny00123> I mean...
[09:19] <crolle17> my totem doesn't play mp3. what can i do?
[09:20] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:20] <ny00123> verydeep, you want to at least save a backup of the "phones book"(My English..heh)?

[09:20] <magnetron> !mp3 | crolle17
[09:20] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, It is probably a typo and they meant GTK+
[09:20] <ny00123> verydeep, try Wammu (sudo apt-get install wammu)
[09:20] <crolle17> i tried to play mp3-files with the totem gstreamer, but that doesn't work.
[09:21] <pi4> crolle17, I think that if you try to open a mp3 file, ubuntu offers you to download the codecs
[09:21] <crolle17> pi4, magnetron why not mp3?
[09:21] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: OK, so I'll check for "GTK" in the Synaptic Add/Remove
[09:21] <Jordan_U> crolle17, It should offer to install the codecs for you on Feisty
[09:21] <coopster> has anyone else ever run into an issue where mdadm insists on marking a partition as a spare in a raid?  i have 2 logical partitions on /dev/sdc, and they both fark-up the RAID they are in, because they both get treated as spares
[09:21] <skollie> oxeimon: looks like ubuntu is getting an ip address for your eth0.avahi )or whatever) but then trying to use eth0 as your default device
[09:21] <crolle17> Jordan_U, right. i have a feisty-system
[09:21] <maximander> how do i change the mount params of a mounted drive without unmounting ?
[09:21] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:21] <bruenig> maximander, you don't
[09:21] <oxeimon> oh wow that's amazing
[09:21] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, And the package you want will end in -dev
[09:21] <maximander> i need to switch / to ro
[09:22] <pi4> crolle17, why why not mp3? do you mean the "!"
[09:22] <pi4> ?
[09:22] <oxeimon> yeah, I connected it to the other ethernet slot
[09:22] <oxeimon> and I'm online now
[09:22] <crolle17> pi4, yes
[09:22] <bruenig> maximander, umount it
[09:22] <skollie> oxeimon: try it is XP and see if it also works
[09:22] <bruenig> maximander, then mount with -o ro
[09:22] <oxeimon> kk
[09:22] <magnetron> crolle17: read the message from ubotu
[09:22] <maximander> bruenig: unmount / ?
[09:22] <Jordan_U> maximander, You might be able to do that with sysrq, why do you need / ro ?
[09:22] <Newbie_Dude> This Ubuntu thing seems pretty tough to learn, you guys think the benefits of Ubuntu are worth learning all this stuff? :P
[09:22] <pi4> crolle17, I thought the same thing, like in C.. but it's the way to tell ubotu to tell you something
[09:22] <jacque124> rc.underz.org
[09:23] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, depends on your motivation.
[09:23] <MrTsunami> Newbie_Dude: yes. :D
[09:23] <crolle17> pi4, ah.
[09:23] <Juhaz> Newbie_Dude, you need libgtk2.0-dev
[09:23] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:23] <pi4> bruenig: I still have the problem :s
[09:23] <maximander> fsck can't fix the corrupted files while mounted, so I wanted to remount it ro and then run fsck -f
[09:23] <Juhaz> Newbie_Dude, and compiling things is hard everywhere.
[09:23] <bruenig> maximander, change the fstab entry and reboot
[09:23] <captainm> Newbie_Dude, you'll pick it up, it looks harder than it thus. Plus you'll learn something about how your computer works along the way :)
[09:23] <Newbie_Dude> @Juhaz: Thanks, I won't give up. :) I already uninstalled Windows XP so there's no going back. xD
[09:23] <maximander> beh, i don't wanna reboot...
[09:23] <magnetron> Newbie_Dude: i personally think that Ubuntu with Gnome is easier to learn, if you don't have any previous computer experience
[09:23] <Jordan_U> maximander, run "sudo touch /forcefsck" then reboot
[09:23] <bruenig> maximander, it is a bad idea by the way to mount it as ro, unless you have /var on another partition
[09:24] <coopster> maximander, fsck can't fix the file system if the drive is ro, can it?
[09:24] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is There A Need For The VMWare Web Administrator GUI If I Don't Plan On Having Anyone Outside My Network Use The Virtual Machine?
[09:24] <bruenig> fsck doesn't work on mounted drives coopster
[09:24] <amr> ihi
[09:24] <pi4> how do I correct Unmet dependencies?
[09:24] <coopster> bruenig, right, so, mounted ro counts as not mounted, or it won't work?
[09:25] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:25] <crolle17> Jordan_U, no. totem doesn't lead me to install the missing codec. which package to install?
[09:25] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Don't see why you would.
[09:25] <bruenig> coopster, it won't work regardless of how it is mounted,
[09:25] <crolle17> Jordan_U, i would do by hand then.
[09:25] <amr> may i ask if there a nother program can be used instead of samba and give support for vista
[09:25] <lnxmomo> hi again, conky didnt work with me and compiz, can anyone recommend another text based system monitor?
[09:25] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Look at the guide ubotu gave
[09:25] <magnetron> amr: what do you want to do with the system
[09:25] <coopster> amr, it depends on what support you want to give
[09:25] <tarzeau> lnxmomo: monitor what kind of stuff?
[09:26] <IndyLucian> how do i pull up a list of all installed packages on my distro

[09:26] <amr> i have lan between my pc running ubuntu and my fathers running vita
[09:26] <coopster> lnxmomo, cat | less ?
[09:26] <Vlet> Is there an apt command that will list available packages like 'yum list available'?
[09:26] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay sry for the delay. using live cd. ubuntu loaded and in cli
[09:26] <Newbie_Dude> No wonder I couldn't get ZSNES to compile or whatever earlier, it says "i386" only, and I have AMD64. >_<
[09:26] <russe11> !jabber
[09:26] <bruenig> lnxmomo, conky is all there is in that arena and it should work, it is probably an error on your end, try setting use_own_window 1 or whatever that one is
[09:26] <IndyLucian> vlet, just open add/remove programs under Applications or Synaptics under System->Adminstration
[09:26] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Are You AFK Again :) ?
[09:26] <pi4> Jordan_U, I'm trying to install sshfs, but apt-get doesn't allow me because it says "E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f."

[09:28] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  you realize that there is proberly no real reason for you to be runnint a 64bit disrto.. and Correct.. ZSNES is 32bit ONLY... you cant compile it to be 64bit.
[09:28] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Why are you installing libxine1-ffmpeg, that is not what the instructions say
[09:28] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: is it possible to do ith live
[09:28] <godofredo> Jordan_U, In VMWare It Asks Me To Choose A Network Connection, If I Only Want The Host Computer To Access It Can I Say No Network Connection?
[09:28] <skollie> oxeimon: what's happening?
[09:28] <Optimus55> ?
[09:28] <lnxmomo> i did that before i installed conky captainm
[09:28] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  if you had mentioned that earlier i would of told ya. :) heh heh.
[09:28] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:28] <oxeimon> why does my computer have two network cards lol
[09:28] <crolle17> Jordan_U, your linke led to this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3#head-eea6f341d3c611167270106a187907c2a23e08e2
[09:28] <godofredo> Jordan_U, When Creating A New Virtual Server.
[09:28] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[09:28] <crolle17> and at the bottom there is this lib mentioned.
[09:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I think so but you would not want to do it other than just to test it
[09:28] <Newbie_Dude> @DR_willis: (;>_<) So, should I Download a different (non-64bit) distro? >_<
[09:29] <skollie> oxeimon: but iot's all good and working under both ubuntu and xp?
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  I use the 32bit Ubuntu on all my amd64 based machiens just fine.
[09:29] <godofredo> Jordan_U, If I Hope To Run iTunes Off Of This XP Installation How Many Gigs Would Be A Safe Zone?
[09:29] <Jordan_U> crolle17, That is for Amerok
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  people tent to think they MUST use 64bit disrtos on them.. wich is not true at all.
[09:29] <captainm> lnxmomo, hmm, try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=492762&highlight=conky+beryl
[09:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: bring up a terminal screen
[09:29] <oxeimon> yup
[09:29] <oxeimon> :-D
[09:29] <Jordan_U> godofredo, No idea, I don't use windows
[09:29] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  so yes.. i would advise getting the 32bit ubuntu and using that instead of 64bit.
[09:29] <oxeimon> I'm just curious now as to whcih is the better one
[09:29] <oxeimon> >.>
[09:29] <coopster> godofredo, if you want to dual boot like that, you may do well to have a windows partition, linux partition, and one big partition that's FAT32 to store files
[09:29] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: exactly. i need to test it first. once i know it works i can get rid of xp. but if i installed ubuntu and it didnt work i would be in a lotta @#$%
[09:29] <Jordan_U> godofredo, What do you need itunes for?
[09:30] <crolle17> Jordan_U, right. but that is the only codec for feisty mentioned. btw. which player do you advise?
[09:30] <skollie> oxeimon: so no need to worry about the 2nd card ;)
[09:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: We are going to edit or create the first file from a terminal gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/sprint
[09:30] <Vlet> Will installing ubuntu-desktop install and configure gdm automatically?
[09:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: I have been dual booting xp and linux for a long time
[09:30] <alexou> hello, ati 9200/9250 driver fglrx : log -> (EE) fglrx(0): [09:30] <oxeimon> do you guys know if Agere Systems is better than Realtek?
[09:30] <godofredo> Jordan_U, My Sis Has An iPod And Wants To Use iTunes, So I Decided To Add VMware on The Linux Installation So She Can Buys Songs And Such
[09:30] <Jordan_U> crolle17, I don't have a preference other than totem, I though that was what you were trying to play it in
[09:30] <Newbie_Dude> @Dr_willis: If I was to stay with 64-bit distro, would I just be missing out on 32-bit programs? What would be the disadvantage of staying with my 64-bit? :P Hehe... 700 Megabytes would take me like 2 days to download on my 56k modem...
[09:30] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:30] <DaH-RaT> does anyone know why i cannot use my Desktop EffectS? im using the generic ATI drivers from the OS, it was found and also i get a good "Yes" from glxnfo command
[09:30] <alexou> hello, ati 9200/9250 driver fglrx : log -> (EE) fglrx(0): [09:31] <godofredo> Jordan_U, And Then Put A Virtual Installation Of XP On It
[09:31] <skollie> oxeimon: can't really help you on that one
[09:31] <crolle17> Jordan_U, yes. but my totem seems to be quite dead.
[09:31] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay. a window opened
[09:31] <oxeimon> meh
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Let me know when you have opened the terminal and are in the editor
[09:31] <oxeimon> skollie: thanks for all your help anyway :-D
[09:31] <oxeimon> skollie I really appreciate it
[09:31] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I know there are ways to sync an ipod in Linux, I don't know if you can buy from the itunes store though
[09:31] <skollie> oxeimon: np
[09:31] <crolle17> Jordan_U, means the codecs are missing...
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55:  type      gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/sprint
[09:31] <coopster>  Newbie_Dude, generally 64-bit OS's are a pain to run.  I use ubuntu 64-bit, I have yet to get around to making java work in a web browser, or flash, or most windows media player videos.... etc
[09:31] <snipex> i got 2 mobile phones and my comp has got bluetooth, konquer detects phones but when i want to share files
[09:31] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: yeh the editor opened title "sprint"
[09:31] <xman> hey guys, what does this error mean when i start a program from cli  Fontconfig warning: line 32: unknown element "cachedir"
[09:31] <xman>  ?
[09:32] <snipex> my mobile phones ask for permission, i click yes and then they demand password
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: COpy the info from that page you linked earlier..
[09:32] <beni> hey i just finished my ubuntu server installation, and now it always restarts.  Normal grub settings (kernel foo ; initrd /boot/blub; savedefault; boot) and it is just restarting, for 10 minutes now. what the heck? :P
[09:32] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, 64 bit systems are liable to run into problems when they need to interact with things made for 32bit systems, like flash or some video codecs
[09:32] <snipex> what do i do now
[09:32] <bagualas> the x11vnc shutdowns after someone access the machine, is that a bug? Or it simples doesn't run as service?
[09:32] <alexou_> hello, ati 9200/9250 driver fglrx : log -> (EE) fglrx(0): [09:32] <Dr_willis> Newbie_Dude,  you aint going to be missing much if anything.. order the free cd's or find some at the bookstore/magazine rack if ya want.
[09:32] <Jordan_U> crolle17, I think that you want gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3
[09:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Just the text from the first light grey box..
[09:33] <NemesisD> is there a way to prevent sounds from playing at the login screen or when i log in?
[09:33] <Vlet> xman: does the application run correctly? sometimes graphical applications, when run from the commandline, spit out debug messages that are basically meaningless
[09:33] <Newbie_Dude> OK, I'll start the 32-bit download then go out to 7-11 for another bottle of Tylenol.
[09:33] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, unless you need 8 gigs of ram or quick number calculations (dividing decimals, etc), you're better w/ 32
[09:33] <citronio> cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. problems with SATA hard drive??? any help???
[09:33] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, Yes
[09:33] <beni> NemesisD: Cut the Wires on the Soundcard
[09:33] <Dr_willis> citronio,  perhaps clarify the problem, not just repeating it..you are not very clear.
[09:33] <xman> Vlet, yes it does. it's just i wonder what those are
[09:33] <NemesisD> beni, laptop :O
[09:33] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, do tell
[09:33] <coopster> Newbie_Dude, unless of course you're like me and just have to run 64bit even in the face of overwhelming hassle w/ no benefits
[09:34] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, System -> Administration -> Login Window
[09:34] <bronze-> Can anyone paste an at sign.
[09:34] <NemesisD> okay
[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: when done save that file and exit the editor
[09:34] <crolle17> Jordan_U, my sources.list doesn't know that package (i only have standard-url in the list)

[09:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55:  type      gksudo gedit /etc/chatscripts/sprint-connect                and do the same for that
[09:35] <stefg> !flash64 | ozzman

[09:35] <fsckr> what is the correct syntax if I want to change a folder that belongs to root to make it belong to me the user?
[09:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: yes copy what they say to use
[09:35] <snipex> i got 2 mobile phones and my comp has got bluetooth, konquer detects phones but when i want to share files my mobile phones ask for permission, i click yes and then they demand password
[09:35] <NemesisD> Jordan_U, ok i disabled the sound in accessability now where do i get rid of that short jingle when you actually log in? it's showing login successful as empty so that can't be it
[09:35] <Fred> can anyone recommend a nice light-weight dos emulator for xubuntu?
[09:35] <citronio> thx Dr_willis, i cannot mount the cd drive, it is not recognized anywhere, and I read it may be because of a conflict between IDE and SATA. apparently changing the BIOS config would help, but I cannot find an option to do so, and I read if I could load first the IDE driver and then the SATA may solve the problem, but I don't have a clue about how to do that...
[09:35] <crolle17> Jordan_U, sorry. now i found it.
[09:35] <stefg> fsckr: sudo chown <username> /foo/bar
[09:36] <fsckr> ty stefg
[09:36] <xman> Fred, dosbox ?
[09:36] <magnetron> Fred: dosbox or dosemu
[09:36] <Jordan_U> NemesisD, System -> Preferences -> Sound
[09:36] <Fred> xman that is what i was thinking
[09:37] <Fred> thanks
[09:37] <younghacker> hey
[09:37] <fsckr> stefg: i just did that command and I guess root is the group now how do i change that?
[09:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Should I Be Able To Run All Non-3D Applications On VMWARE?
[09:37] <younghacker> now that postgres works so well i want to rid myslef of mysql
[09:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[09:38] <stefg> fsckr: sudo chown <username>:<groupname> /foo/bar ... man chaown is nice to read, btw
[09:38] <bony> is it possible to link evolution to a database for storing and retrieving data from different mail id's?
[09:38] <younghacker> i tried to apt-get remove it but,, it says no package named mysql exists
[09:38] <younghacker> is there something im missing?
[09:38] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: okay did both of them
[09:38] <oxeimon> is it possible to restart a computer via the command line?
[09:38] <Whosits> I'm back. I tried turning my burn speed down to the lowest supported speed by my drive (8x) and the CD's integrity check still comes back bad
[09:38] <crolle17> Jordan_U, it's curious the totem can't open that mp3-file, but the rhythm-box-music-player can do. but i still have problem to get something out...
[09:38] <Newbie_Dude> Since I installed Ubuntu I haven't been able to get any sound out of my computer, is that normal? :P
[09:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, But now that I think of it how are you going to buy stuff from iTunes without a network connection :)
[09:38] <Dr_willis> oxeimon,  of course. 'sudo reboot' or 'sudo halt'
[09:38] <oxeimon> ah kk
[09:38] <Tlink> oxeimon shutdown -r NOW
[09:39] <xman> Newbie_Dude, play around with the volume control, it happens
[09:39] <oxeimon> k thanks
[09:39] <oxeimon> sudo reboot worked
[09:39] <fsckr> stefg: ty i have read it just didn't quite understand the syntax thats all
[09:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, After The Disk Is Done Being Created, Can I Edit That?
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: now try                   sudo ifup ppp0
[09:39] <Whosits> Is there anything aside from turning burn speed down that will increase the likeliness of the integrity check passing?
[09:39] <captainm> Whosits, try downloading the file again. Maybe your download is corrupted? this isn't a great ubuntu start ;)
[09:39] <Optimus55> okay
[09:39] <younghacker> u could just get idump sofware and steal all the songs off everyones ipod
[09:39] <younghacker> =)
[09:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes, you just can't change it while the virtual machine is running
[09:39] <Optimus55> Jack_Sparrow: how do you bring up the connection tho. how to initiate the dial up?
[09:39] <Whosits> I've done 2 different downloads and I MD5'd them both
[09:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Thought That Question Was Referring To Others Using That VMWare Installation?
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: then     sudo pon sprint
[09:40] <younghacker> can someone help me uninstall mysql
[09:40] <Whosits> they came up as fine
[09:40] <crolle17> Jordan_U, maybe a driver-problem? the player is running, but no sound (i got new hardware).
[09:40] <Whosits> I'm trying the LiveCD instead of the Alternate this time
[09:40] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Does it give an error?
[09:40] <Fred> younghacker, why would you want to do that?
[09:40] <Whosits> (this third time)
[09:40] <captainm> Whosits, I can't think if anything else to try either
[09:40] <stefg> fsckr: and if there's files in it that you'll want the -R switch
[09:40] <Whosits> Yeah. I mean, they're verbatim discs, it's not a shoddy brand
[09:41] <crolle17> Jordan_U, no. simply no sound. i use an onboard-soundcard of asus...
[09:41] <younghacker> i just set up postgres and i want to use my db as a backend app,, postgres is working a lot better,, unless i need mysql
[09:41] <fsckr> ty stefg
[09:41] <younghacker> id want my diskspace back cause this is a VM I am on
[09:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: Do you see any errors
[09:41] <Enron> How do I install rpm on ubuntu without alien
[09:41] <Newbie_Dude> @Crolle17: I'm using ASUS onboard too and am getting no sound at all. xD
[09:41] <tayknight> does anyone know if munin needs to have a cron entry (munin doesn't seem to be doing anything, but munin-node is running).
[09:41] <GSMX> i have problems with terminal, every 'sudo' i type, it asks for a password, but i can't type anything
[09:41] <Comrade-Sergei> can some one walk me through this - http://www.joachim-gehweiler.de/en/software/andlinux.php
[09:41] <Enron> can't I install rpm ?
[09:41] <younghacker> alien
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !alien
[09:42] <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)
[09:42] <stefg> !alien | Enron
[09:42] <ubotu> Enron: please see above

[09:42] <pi4> oh yes! I solved my problem, the openoffice.org file in /var/cache was corrupted, I don't know why aptitude didn't notice but well
[09:42] <Jordan_U> crolle17, Do any applications give sound?
[09:42] <crolle17> Newbie_Dude, true? what did you do?
[09:42] <Optimus55> the pc with the evdo card is the one i'm on now, so i'm going to reboot into ubuntu and try it

[09:43] <Jordan_U> !sound | crolle17
[09:43] <ubotu> crolle17: 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).

[09:44] <younghacker> Desktop effects suk
[09:44] <SlimeyPete> uboto is a computer program (a bot), not a person
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> i know that now
[09:44] <crolle17> Jordan_U, there somebody in this # who has the same problem (Newbie_Dude)
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> yeah, it just told me that
[09:44] <Newbie_Dude> At my school the teacher has been teaching us SQL with a program called "SQL Server 2005 Express," I used to use that on Windows XP, but now obviously I am an Ubuntu user, is there an equivelant to SQL Server 2005 Express? Primarily for education.
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> so any suggestions on fixing my desktop?
[09:44] <Whosits> lol, The first time I didn't actually do a CD integrity check _before_ the install, so it installed, and didn't let me choose packages, but everything else was fine. So it booted into GRUP, went into ubuntu, I logged in, and (me being pretty much brand new to linux command line stuff) I type man sudo - "man is not a recognised command" - it was disconcerting to say the least.
[09:44] <GreenJello^Work> since i can't log in as root
[09:44] <HOT> Newbie_Dude: MySql ?
[09:44] <Comrade-Sergei> can some one walk me through this - http://www.joachim-gehweiler.de/en/software/andlinux.php
[09:45] <Newbie_Dude> @crolle17: I dunno man, maybe our ASUS onboard isn't supported by Ubuntu? I'm gonna go out and grab a 20 dollar SoundBlaster and try it next week.
[09:45] <John`> hey scott
[09:45] <younghacker> it looks like postgres is the same
[09:45] <LinuxProbie> I'm actually looking for a good PHP development program that has syntax highlighting and such.
[09:45] <John`> you there?
[09:45] <maximander> Newbie_Dude: postgresql
[09:45] <GreenJello^Work> i'd hate to have to reinstall ubuntu over a broken desktop
[09:45] <younghacker> with the pgadmin GUI like maximander said
[09:45] <younghacker> this rocks @ maximander
[09:45] <maximander> LinuxProbie: eclipse
[09:45] <crolle17> Newbie_Dude, i have one (very old) at home and will try it too.
[09:45] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: i see... sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz (in the hope that gnome falls back to sane defaults)
[09:45] <Jordan_U> GreenJello^Work, Log in to a failsafe gnome session
[09:46] <Jordan_U> GreenJello^Work, It's in the session menu at the login screen
[09:46] <GreenJello^Work> how do you do that?
[09:46] <Newbie_Dude> @crolle17: Of course if someone here can get our sound to work it would be awesome. :) But, I read the Ubuntu hardware compability wiki and it said that the highest compatibility for sound was from Creative (sound blaster)
[09:46] <maximander> LinuxProbie: I use eclipse with php ide and subversion at work and at home, moving between ubuntu (home) and XP (work) all with the same IDE, try it
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Optimus55: You still here?
[09:46] <citronio> although i installed ubuntu from a cd-dvd drive, the drive is not available anymore. it is not recognized and is nowhere to be seen in the hardware manager. any ideas?
[09:46] <Newbie_Dude> @Everyone: Thanks for all the answers, showertime. :)
[09:46] <GreenJello^Work> stefg:  i can't get to a terminal
[09:47] <Jordan_U> Newbie_Dude, Have you tried making sure that all the channels are turned up and unmuted in alsamixer?
[09:47] <photo_nut> does anyone know if the AMD sempron mobile is a 32 or 64 bit processor
[09:47] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: ctrl-alt-F1 ?
[09:47] <maximander> GreenJello^Work: boot into single user mode?
[09:47] <GreenJello^Work> i'll try..  booting up again.. i was about ready to just reinstall..  this is a fresh install
[09:47] <LinuxProbie> maximander: would it move from eclipse to zend fairly easily?
[09:47] <Newbie_Dude> @Jordan_U: I've tried that, but maybe I plugged it into the wrong jack... There's like 6 different sound jacks in the back and one in the front. I'll experiment after my shower. xD
[09:48] <maximander> Zend being the ide, the framework or the platform?
[09:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U AFK Again :)?
[09:48] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Sure :)
[09:48] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How Can I Make My Virtual Operating System Boot From A CD In The Host's CDROM Drive
[09:49] <coopster> has anyone else ever run into an issue where mdadm insists on marking a partition as a spare in a raid?  i have 2 logical partitions on /dev/sdc, and they both fark-up the RAID they are in, because they both get treated as spares
[09:49] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Go to the vm -> settings
[09:49] <stefg> GreenJello^Work: don't panic.... catch the grub menu at boot, go to single mode. this will bring you to a root terminal console. apt-get remove --purge compiz (or just add another user with adduser)
[09:49] <godofredo> Jordan_U, K
[09:49] <ilu> can someone explain what happens to installed apps in linux? were do the installed files end up?

[09:50] <ubotu> ilu: 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)
[09:50] <maximander> what's the difference between adduser and useradd -m ?
[09:50] <tupa> in your experience, what is the most compressing algorithm?, I need to send big files to a friend over internet
[09:50] <GenNMX> !man | maximander
[09:50] <ubotu> maximander: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[09:50] <stefg> nicer dialogs
[09:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Go to the cdrom drive, it is pretty self explanatory from there
[09:50] <photo_nut> Is there a 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> yes.
[09:50] <captainm> ilu, type "man hier " (without the quotes) in a terminal
[09:50] <xoqa_> dpkg: error processing openoffice.org-evolution (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[09:50] <GenNMX> photo_nut: Yep, there are even non-x86 versions
[09:50] <Enron> i'm trying to use dkms build --kernelsource but I don't know where the source build is, I can't locate the build Please help
[09:50] <SlimeyPete> it's available from the download page on the website.
[09:50] <xoqa_> how can i get rid of that?
[09:51] <xoqa_> it's driving me crazy,the error keeps getting longer and longer everytime i try to install something.
[09:51] <photo_nut> If I installed a 64 bit version on a 32 bit processor what happens?
 thanks sir
[09:51] <stefg> xoqa_: sudo apt-get -f install
[09:51] <Dr_willis> photo_nut,  what processor? the amd64 cpus can handle both.
[09:51] <GenNMX> photo_nut: It won't work, period ;)
[09:51] <Jordan_U> godofredo, If there isn't a cdrom drive add it ( you can also add a virtual ethernet controller so the vm can connect to the internet )
[09:51] <i9> does anybody know of a device or software that records the phone numbers on a land line that are dialed?
[09:52] <photo_nut> I have a AMD Sempron Mobile and it says on one of the product sheets 64 bit and 32 bit
[09:52] <neverblue> can I port scan a specific port?
[09:52] <Enron> Wheres the Ubuntu server room
[09:52] <neverblue> to see what service is running on it?
[09:52] <photo_nut> So i am confused and was wondering if there is an advantage to the 64 bit one?
[09:52] <godofredo> Jordan_U, It's Not Booting From My CD-Rom Drive :(
[09:52] <stefg> photo_nut: you'll want the 32bit edititon anyway
[09:52] <Thanatos> neverblue: Yes, I believe nmap has that function.
[09:52] <Dr_willis> photo_nut,  theres no real need for most peopel to use 64bit
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue: I use grc.com for checking my security
[09:52] <godofredo> Jordan_U, That May Foil My Plan :(
[09:52] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Is it set to?
[09:52] <photo_nut> What is the advantage of the 64 bit edition?
[09:53] <godofredo> Jordan_U, /dev/cdrom
[09:53] <maximander> being able to use ram
[09:53] <photo_nut> Why is that stefg?
[09:53] <GenNMX> photo_nut: Depends on what you use it for -- 64-bit is only good for very intensive tasks optimized for 64-bit, like video rendering, stressful algorithms such as in physics, etc.
[09:53] <Jordan_U> godofredo, You may need to hit escape at boot to choose to boot from CD
[09:53] <Vassili> http://pastebin.com/m399b2795 Can someone help me with this script?
[09:53] <photo_nut> Mostly I use the laptop to manage my video and edit the video and store images
[09:53] <neverblue> or is telnet used to check the port, for the service running on it?
[09:53] <ny00123> photo_nut, IF you're gonna develop...oh
[09:53] <stefg> photo_nut: some important codecs and packages don't run on 64bit libs.... endless trouble for negligible performance gains in 64bit mode
[09:54] <xoqa_> stefg: that didn't work.
[09:54] <ny00123> 64-bit may be good for development (e.g. in C/C++) as you'd find errors which are 'invisible' in 32-bit.
[09:54] <maximander> photo_nut: i accedentally install ubuntu-server i386 on my dual xeon-emt64 and now that i put another 2gb of ram in it, i still can't let mysql use it all since i didn't install x64
[09:54] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So Far It Is Working :) Gracias Amigo.
[09:54] <mortuis99> is 64 bit good for running servers?
[09:54] <ny00123> (e.g. assuming that sizeof(int)=sizeof(long))
[09:54] <stefg> xoqa_: what error?
[09:54] <Jordan_U> godofredo, de nothing :)
[09:54] <xoqa_> stefg: same
[09:54] <godofredo> Jordan_U, :)
[09:54] <photo_nut> I see.
[09:54] <cmo-0> hello
[09:54] <photo_nut> Thank you guys.
[09:55] <beni> !grub > beni
[09:55] <stefg> xoqa_: openoffice got updated yesterday, might be that the evo-package isn't updated yet
[09:55] <maximander> stefg: umm, not everyone cares about codecs more than being able to use >3.2G ram at a time
[09:55] <citronio> i cannot mount my cd-dvd drive. it is not recognized anywhere, although I installed ubuntu from it!!!! any ideas?
[09:55] <Thanatos> citronio: did you check the cables?
[09:55] <photo_nut> The other thing I was wondering is this. I wanted to install Ubuntu but frankly without all the crap that comes with it. I have a laptop that has wireless on it that works fine with ubuntu LTS 6.06 but the wireless doesnt work on the higher versions any ideas why?
[09:56] <Jordan_U> maximander, Save all of the relevant config files and re-install 64 bit ?
[09:56] <xoqa_> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29696/
[09:56] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I Like The Idea Of A Virtual OS, If There Ever Was A Virus, It Wouldn't Corrupt My Linux Install Or Boot
[09:56] <cmo-0> i'm trying to change screen resolution. i've tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf to add 1280x1024 res. but it does not appear in the droplist of System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[09:56] <p99> citonio: make sure you cd drive is closed and then reboot.
[09:56] <maximander> Jordan_U: i don't have serial console
[09:56] <Jordan_U> maximander, What do you have?
[09:56] <citronio> thx, Thanatos... it is built in the laptop. when I insert a cd it spins etc but does not mount, and I do not have access to the cd inserted after finished
[09:56] <user101> guyz... doesn't the ubuntu repository have gcc?
[09:57] <captainm> cmo-0, did you restart x-server?
[09:57] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Now Once You Are Done With That Other Dude, How Do I Allow This Install To Access The Internet?
[09:57] <maximander> Jordan_U: now that it's racked and I am on the west cost for the next 4 months? SSH and not rebooting it
[09:57] <Thanatos> citronio: But it recognizes the drive, just that fact that nothing is in it?
[09:57] <Jordan_U> photo_nut, What chipset is your card?
[09:57] <LinuxProbie> is eclipse also a good testing platform? Can you debug and view code output or so you need to upload to a server for it?
[09:57] <stefg> xoqa_: hmmm, did you mess with your /etc/apt/sources.list ? used automatix?
[09:57] <cmo-0> yes -
[09:57] <photo_nut> Jordan_U how would I find out?
[09:57] <Enron> How do I download Kernel source for Ubuntu, I Need it for DKMS
[09:57] <p99> citonio: I have a laptop too. It will only reconize the cd drive if it is closed when I boot. Try booting with a cd to check it still works properly
[09:58] <HHP2K> Does anyone here have VisualBoyAdvance?
[09:58] <citronio> Thanatos, no I don't think so, it does not appear in the hardware manager...
[09:58] <Jordan_U> photo_nut, lspci
[09:58] <cmo-0> does Ubuntu saves screen res. preferences into another file?
[09:58] <Thanatos> citronio: Hrm. No clue =/
[09:58] <mhz`> maxim, have them ship it back, fix it and mail it back to the colo

[09:58] <p99> cmo-0: you can run a utility to reconfigure xorg
[09:58] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Resolution problems are almost always driver problems
[09:58] <ScorpKing> citronio:  is your cd-rom listed in /etc/fstab?
[09:58] <photo_nut>  Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01)
[09:58] <cmo-0> captainm: i've also restarted the PC!!!
[09:59] <xoqa_> stefg: i upgraded to gutsy gibbon
[09:59] <HHP2K> Does anyone have VisualBoyAdvance working on ubuntu?
[09:59] <captainm> cmo-0, if you use a intel graphics chip you can download 915 resolution, otherwise listen to the other guys :P
[09:59] <laraAJ> greets
[09:59] <cmo-0> Jordan_U: under Debian 4, this works perfectly
[09:59] <Pricey> HHP2K, #ubuntu+1
[09:59] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Adding a resolution to your xorg.conf won't help if the driver you are using doesn't support it
[09:59] <Pricey> HHP2K, gutsy is not supported in this channel
[09:59] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, What GFX card?
[09:59] <cmo-0> Ati 9550
[09:59] <user101> hey... where do i find ubuntu kernel sources?
[10:00] <citronio> ScorpKing, this is what I found in the fstab: /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[10:00] <alexIdoia> say I have done a python script that I have put on a shortcut key, where do I put this script to keep an OS tidy ?
[10:00] <Pricey> user101, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[10:00] <p99> ati has the propper drivers on there website
[10:00] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Have you tried Restricted Manager?
[10:00] <user101> thx pricey
[10:00] <LinuxProbie> I also need a good GUI Ftp client, what's good?
[10:00] <maximander> mhz`: that's a alot of downtime to cross the country, and expensive... it'd be cheaper to pay them to roll a crash cart over and do the install... but i don't trust them. and since it's in production and can't afford downtime of shipping, it's just gonna leave the ram empty
[10:00] <stefg> xoqa_: ok, then this is completly /your/ problem... gutsy is alpha, support is in #ubuntu+1 and it's promised to break at some point. reinstall feisty
[10:00] <cmo-0> ?
[10:00] <Newbie_Dude> What are some of the advantages of switching to Ubuntu from Windows XP? So far I'm enjoying it but I'm afraid the scope of benefits surpass my current perception.
[10:00] <Pricey> user101, they will then be in /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[10:00] <cmo-0> i'm using sudo
[10:00] <alexIdoia> anyone ?
[10:00] <godofredo> LinuxProbie, gFTP
[10:00] <gaten> how can you blacklist updates? such as I don't want nvidia=glx to update itself, how can i stop the update manager from checking for an update to it
[10:00] <HHP2K> Pricey: what do you mean? I'm not talking about gutsy, just visual boy advance.. what does that have to do with gutsy?
[10:00] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Does your card work better with fglrx?
[10:00] <godofredo> LinuxProbie, Or If You Have Firefox Installed, Use The Extension, FireFtp
[10:00] <xoqa_> stefg: k. :C
[10:01] <xoqa_> :P
[10:01] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:01] <Pricey> HHP2K, using anything on gutsy doesn't go in this channel.
[10:01] <ScorpKing> citronio: looks ok and should work. tried to mount in manualy?
[10:01] <xoqa_> stefg: thanks for sticking with me :)
[10:01] <HHP2K> Pricey: I'm on Fiesty though.
[10:01] <cmo-0> okay: i'm enabling it right now ..........
[10:01] <markrian> How do you search through ubuntu mailing list archives?
[10:01] <citronio> ScorpKing, I tried... no joy...
[10:01] <maximander> mhz`: i suppose i could basically create a 64bit libs dir, install 64bit mysql, install a 64 bit kernel, reboot and hope
[10:01] <GSMX> if i execute a 'sudo' command, terminal asks for a password, but terminal doesn't let me typ anything (the keyboard seems stuck, but i still can typ in other programs)
[10:01] <Pricey> HHP2K, ok :)
[10:01] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, It will tell you that you need to restart, all you really need to do is restart X
[10:02] <citronio> ScorpKing, any suggestion to mount? (maybe I am not using the right command...)
[10:02] <maximander> mhz`: but being remote makes that too risky
[10:02] <cmo-0> /etc/init.d/ ..... restart
[10:02] <HHP2K> GSMX: Type your password even if the keyboard seems stuck, that's just how the terminal acts.
[10:02] <ScorpKing> citronio: sudo mount /dev/hda .no massage/ error when mounting from console?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> GSMX, It won't show anything but just type your password and hit return
[10:02] <cmo-0> or in nephew terms logout
[10:02] <rolfen> what's the executable to the "volume manager"?
[10:02] <cmo-0> Z
[10:02] <cmo-0> l?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> cmo-0, Yes, or ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:03] <photo_nut> Does the  Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01) work with the new Ubuntu?
[10:03] <alexou>  ati 9200 driver fglrx with overlay / video is cut
[10:03] <GSMX> thanks
[10:03] <user101> ok... next issue.... why does the nvidia driver installer tell me that i haven't got libc... when i got gcc.. which i think should come along with libc?
[10:03] <GSMX> it works
[10:03] <GSMX> :)
[10:03] <alexou_>  ati 9200 driver fglrx with overlay / video is cut
[10:03] <stefg> photo_nut: with ndiswrapper
[10:03] <photo_nut> Oh because it worked no issues with 6.06
[10:04] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT
[10:04] <ozzman> help
[10:04] <HHP2K> So since I've established that I'm not on Gutsy, is -anyone- familiar with the installation of Visual Boy Advance on Ubuntu Fiesty?
[10:04] <citronio> ScorpKing, there is an error with the command: mount: special device /dev/hda does not exist. Could it be sda5 instead? (it still does not work though)
[10:04] <ScorpKing> user101: i think a gcc-dev package or something is missing.
[10:05] <stefg> photo_nut: did it? then try again if it works out of the box
[10:05] <ScorpKing> citronio: ls /dev/ | less and see if it is there.
[10:05] <kac> Hello
[10:05] <younghacker> compile
[10:05] <Pirate_Hunter> HHP2K: just a thought have you tried installing it through synaptic cause i know its there
[10:05] <photo_nut> Ive tried several editions but only the 6.06 LTS works native
[10:05] <user101> ScorpKing: didn't find it on apt-get... dunno where i could find it...
[10:05] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT
[10:05] <HHP2K> Pirate_Hunter: I never thought of that. Thanks!
[10:05] <maximander> hmm... are there any registery hive editors for linux (ala regedit?)
[10:06] <Jordan_U> HHP2K,  sudo apt-get install vbaexpress ?
[10:06] <pyros_pyrotica> maximander: I know trk includes one
[10:06] <zu> Hi !
[10:06] <kac> I could use some help.
[10:06] <stefg> photo_nut: so what? ndiswrapper isn't such a pita...
[10:06] <HHP2K> Jordan_U: I'll try that quickly. Thanks!
[10:06] <Jordan_U> HHP2K, np
[10:06] <photo_nut> pita?
[10:06] <zu> How can I change my address on shipit ?
[10:07] <citronio> ScorpKing: nothing like a cd or dvd drive in ls /dev/ no... :(
[10:07] <ScorpKing> user101: sorry, i'm on a windows box. :-( but it's needed to compile packages.
[10:07] <kac> I set my hostname to null and now my GUI admin utilities don't work because they can't resolve the name of the computer.
[10:07] <maximander> photo_nut: pain in the a**
[10:07] <photo_nut> stefg is ndiswrapper in synaptic?
[10:07] <kac> I can't figure out how to manually set the hostname and have it stick.
[10:07] <photo_nut> Ohhh PITA
[10:07] <ozzman> Hello, i want to install drivers fro my ATI X1900 GT (86_64) Help
[10:07] <stefg> photo_nut: pita : turkish kind of bread (which doesnt relate to pain in the *ss) :-)
[10:07] <kac> Ozzman, they made a suggestion
[10:08] <photo_nut> I just dont get why the wireless works in only the 6.06 LTS version of Ubuntu but not the 7.+ versions
[10:08] <maximander> kac: use `hostname` and edit your hostfile,
[10:08] <kac>  sudo apt-get install vbaexpress ?
[10:08] <Newbie_Dude> Well it looks like I gotta download the 32-bit Ubuntu version, seems Wine and a few other programs don't like AMD64... So I should get the "standard personal computer" version?
[10:08] <ScorpKing> citronio: i think it would be /dev/hda - primary master, /dev/hdb - primary slave, /dev/hdc - secondary master or /dev/hdd - secondary slave.
[10:08] <kac> Where do I find and how do I edit my hostfile?
[10:08] <maximander> sudo nano -w /etc/hosts
[10:09] <ilu> anyone here hot on elinks?
[10:09] <kac> sudo won't work.
[10:09] <ozzman> Who made?
[10:09] <ozzman> can see it
[10:09] <ozzman> cant
[10:09] <GSMX> how can i change my screen resolution to 1280x1024?? i really tried everything i could find in the documentation
[10:09] <kac> In order to use the root privillages I have to go into recovery mode.
[10:09] <kac> at boot up
[10:09] <ScorpKing> kac: sudo vi /etc/hostname or edit as root.
[10:09] <stefg> kac: man hostname
[10:10] <maximander> kac: sudo doesn't work?
[10:10] <ScorpKing> kac: or /etc/hosts
[10:10] <GSMX> even in the nvidea x-config screen, it only went till 1280x800

[10:13] <Enron> i'm trying to use dkms build --kernelsource but I don't know where the source build is, I can't locate the build Please help
[10:14] <f00bar2k> anyone know of any good guides for getting windows file sharing working on ubuntu
[10:14] <stefg> !kernel
[10:14] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:14] <ScorpKing> citronio: unlikely, unless you have 4 hd's in your comp. try to mount it from the command line with the options like in fstab.
[10:14] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Hello?
[10:14] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Hi
[10:14] <citronio> ScorpKing: ok, I'll try...
[10:14] <GSMX> can anybody help me with my resolution problem?
[10:14] <ny00123> Enron, location of kernel sources? Should be found at /usr/src
[10:14] <Enron> stefg I followed those steps but I don't see Build
[10:14] <ScorpKing> citronio: just replace the /dev/hd* with sd*
[10:14] <godofredo> Jordan_U, You Said You Knew How To Allow This New Installation Of WIndoze XP To Access The Internet
[10:15] <Enron> ny00123 Only snapapi module dirs in there
[10:15] <Jordan_U> !fixres | GSMX
[10:15] <ubotu> GSMX: 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
[10:15] <Enron> No build dir for kernel
[10:15] <kac> Maximander, Do I want to edit the Hostname file located in the etc directory?
[10:15] <socca> GSMX: what do you exyctly need?
[10:15] <GSMX> jordan_u: already tried, and failed
[10:15] <ilu> where in the world is linux mostly used?
[10:15] <maximander> kac: edit /etc/hosts
[10:15] <ny00123> Enron, sure you installed the full kernel sources, not just the headers? (should be found in /usr/include/linux)
[10:15] <stefg> Enron: so what are you trying to do (why do you need the kernel source)?
[10:15] <GSMX> socca: a 1280x1024 resolution instead of 1024x768
[10:15] <Jordan_U> godofredo, In the virtual machine preferences add new hardware, ethernet controller, use NAT
[10:15] <maximander> kac: also edit /etc/hostname i guess
[10:15] <Jordan_U> GSMX, What GPU?
[10:16] <godofredo> Jordan_U, SWEET!
[10:16] <GSMX> graphical processing unit
[10:16] <bonz> Anyone know why after I install the ati drivers and set my resolution 1600x1200, I have pieces of my screen also displaying at the bottom of the screen.
[10:16] <younghacker> u should use nat in the VM
[10:16] <user101> uhh... guyz... are the 100.14.11 nvidia drivers compatible with feisty? (Linux x86)
[10:16] <kac> maximander, Alright what do I put into the hosts file?
[10:16] <GSMX> nvidea geforce something
[10:16] <Jordan_U> GSMX, Have you tried Restricted Manager ?
[10:16] <stefg> user101: if you are ready to reinstall it after each kernel-update, then yes
[10:16] <Thanatos> 13:12 <photo_nut> One last thing. Is gnome really that much more of a drain on the CPU and RAM than XFCE?
[10:17] <Thanatos> I too, would like to know the answer to this.
[10:17] <GSMX> jordan_u: yes
[10:17] <maximander> find the line with your hostname (mine looks like127.0.1.1       seawolf.maximander.com seawolf )
[10:17] <GSMX> nvidea geforce 6100 btw
[10:17] <user101> hmm
[10:17] <user101> i just installed the drivers and got an error..
[10:17] <user101> i reinstalled them and seems to be working fine now
[10:17] <user101> or... lol...
[10:17] <kac> maximander, the line that looks like this?
[10:18] <kac> 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:18] <Jordan_U> user101, Why didn't you use Restricted Manager, did it not work?
[10:18] <Enron> stefg inorder to install acronis backup agent, I need to update snapapi module. I need to issue the command dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.19 \ -k <KERNEL_VERSRION> --config <CONFIG_FILE> --arch <KERNEL_ARCH> \ --kernelsourcedir <PATH_TO_KERNEL_SOURCES> # dkms install -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.19 \ -k <KERNEL_VERSRION> --config <CONFIG_FILE> --arch <KERNEL_ARCH> \ --kernelsourcedir <PATH_TO_KERNEL_SOURCES>
[10:18] <photo_nut> Thanatos: I like both Desktops but if there was a real advantage to one over the other on my system I might think differently.
[10:18] <GSMX> i did use restricted manager: failed
[10:18] <younghacker> why can't i see my ftp site in my browser?, on my logging screen i get an accurate entry for everytime i enter my ftp site in the browser window however, i never get there it just keeps loading
[10:18] <Jordan_U> GSMX, That wasn't to you
[10:18] <user101> nope... i think i didn't restart after a kernel update... and i installed the driver on the old kernel... and then it tried to boot from the new one and it went nuts
[10:18] <citronio> ScorpKing: no joy... I keep on making a mistake and the help on mount appears...
[10:18] <ilu> !elinks
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about elinks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:19] <citronio> ScorpKing: I tried: mount /dev/sda /media/cdrom0 and says I need to specify a file system
[10:19] <LinuxProbie> maximander, One last question, I have eclipse installed, how to I get it to speak PHP?
[10:19] <Fedman> how can I reconfigure ubuntu after I changed ubuntu
[10:19] <Fedman> oops I ment my sound card
[10:19] <maximander> kac: usually right below that line is the one with your machine's name
[10:19] <ny00123> citronio, sure that /dev/sda is the cdrom?
[10:19] <ScorpKing> citronio: mount /dev/sda -t ISO9660 /media/cdrom0
[10:19] <citronio> ScorpKing: but where??!?!?! I tried iso9660 evrywhere but it does not work...
[10:20] <maximander> otherwise, you can easily just put your machine name *before* the word localhost, then insert a space
[10:20] <ScorpKing> citronio: then try the next one - sdb
[10:20] <Jordan_U> Fedman, asoundconf list
[10:20] <Fedman> I changed a cmedia one which got broke with a realtek one and now only right channel is working and alsamixer is crashing
[10:20] <citronio> ScorpKing: I'll try with the other sda's...
[10:20] <ny00123> citronio first, done as root with sudo? ;]  secondly
[10:20] <Fedman> Jordan_U: thx
[10:20] <ny00123> tried /dev/cdrom instead?
[10:20] <kac> maximander, My file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:20] <kac> # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[10:20] <Jordan_U> Fedman, then asoundconf set
[10:20] <citronio> ScorpKing: ok, thx a lot!!! (yes... i typed the sudo thing... ;) )
[10:21] <maximander> kac: so a good line might look like "127.0.0.1             seawolf localhost.localdomain localhost"
[10:21] <ScorpKing> citronio: does it work? change the hda to the correct sd* in /etc/fstab
[10:21] <ned__> whenever i try to make a partition on my blank drive with gparted, the drive somehow gets mounted right before it creates the partition and fails
[10:21] <kac> maximander, like I said I did something stupid that a windows machine, surprisingly wouldn't let me do. I set my hostname to an empty string. I believe it's called a null string.
[10:21] <maximander> LinuxProbie: look up the PHP IDE Feature
[10:21] <citronio> ScorpKing: I am on it... not yet
[10:22] <stefg> Enron: ok, i see.... this will be a pita. the trouble is that /theoretically/ the kernel source in the repos is the one of which the kernel is build. In practice it's always outdated, and you have to draw the source from git
[10:22] <maximander> kac: first thing first: run hostname <newname>
[10:22] <rafaelscj> What should I do to play .mpeg files?
[10:23] <voidmage> they should play automatically
[10:23] <Jordan_U> stefg, Really? That is pretty bad practice.
[10:23] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, Double click them
[10:23] <maximander> then go edit the hosts file, putting the primary name of your machine before localhost on the 127.0.0.1 line
[10:23] <LinuxProbie> maximander, How?
[10:23] <ScorpKing> kac: if you open /etc/hostname you'll see the current hostname in there. change it if you dont like it.
[10:23] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers
[10:23] <stefg> Enron: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=485713
[10:23] <Enron> stefg I've done this before a long time ago we had the build dir I believe
[10:23] <socca> anyone to help me with Beryl -i have small quastion about drivers
[10:24] <kac> Hostname is an empty file
[10:24] <crolle17> hey guys. had problems with my onboard-sound. the i installed another soundcard and turned the onboard-sound off in the bios. now i have sound but the second hd is not mounted any more. wjhat could be the reason and how to solve it?
[10:24] <maximander> LinuxProbie: the built in update manager... lookup php ide feature install somewhere
[10:24] <ScorpKing> kac: then put your hostname in there.
[10:24] <crolle17> then
[10:24] <Jordan_U> socca, #ubuntu-effects
[10:24] <crolle17> what
[10:24] <ned__> HELP --> whenever i try to make a partition on my blank drive with gparted, the drive somehow gets mounted right before it creates the partition and fails
[10:24] <maximander> kac: sudo bash -c "echo \"newname\" > /etc/hosts "
[10:24] <citronio> ScorpKing: :( it didn't work. not with /dev/sda, sdb or /media/cdrom0 or /media/cdrom
[10:24] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers
[10:24] <LinuxProbie> maximander, Yah, I'm rummaging through that currently, nit having much luck...
[10:24] <IndyLucian> my System Monitor shows i have ssh-agent running so how do i configure it so i can connect to this computer from my other linux box
[10:25] <stefg> Enron: sudo apt-get install linux-source ... then you find a bz2 archive in /usr/src, which you'll have to unpack
[10:25] <kac> I'm trying, it's a restricted file so I need to set it's permissions. Or edit it in commandline (something I don't know how to do exactly at this moment.
[10:25] <kac> )
[10:25] <rafaelscj> I have been installed Intel High Definition Audio. Thank you
[10:25] <eBoxNet> IndyLucian ssh ip
[10:25] <maximander> kac: 1) open a terminal 2) sudo su -
[10:25] <mystix_2004> Is this motherboard and all its onboard features a good choice for a linux compatible system: ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe? I've read some problems people had experienced with using it on the forums, and would like some opinions on it.
[10:25] <socca> Jordan_U: i think ATI drivers,is default ubuntu drivers enough or i must installl XGL?
[10:25] <ScorpKing> citronio: ok. can you mount it from the console and what is the command that you type to do that?
[10:26] <IndyLucian> couldn't connect to hose: connection refused
[10:26] <kac> ok I got the Sudo su to work
[10:26] <eBoxNet> ssh localhost (any firewall on?)
[10:26] <kac> I set my hostname
[10:26] <Jordan_U> socca, If your card is supported by the open source drivers then you can just turn on desktop effects
[10:26] <kac> I just did the echo
[10:26] <zbyhoo> bye
[10:26] <Jordan_U> socca, If you need fglrx then you need to use XGL
[10:26] <IndyLucian> oh, connect to the computer im on... i thought you meant to type the computer i wanted to connect to
[10:26] <maximander> try running "hostname"
[10:26] <ned__> forget this... :(
[10:26] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: ??? not sure what you ask for... I tried: sudo /dev/sda -t iso9660 /media/cdrom0
[10:27] <IndyLucian> that blocked too
[10:27] <IndyLucian> ssh localhost did
[10:27] <eBoxNet> connect to the computer running the ssh server
[10:27] <ozzman> Kernel failed to build
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: then tried the same with sda1, sda2, sda5 and sdb
[10:27] <IndyLucian> 'connection refused' i only have the default iptables in play
[10:27] <Andeh> Hi. Is it possible to send messages to offline people in GAIM? Cause my friend's "invisible" but he's sending me messages, and I cant send him messages!!!!!
[10:27] <IndyLucian> they are both running the server by default (been running since ubuntu install)
[10:27] <IndyLucian> but i have never configured it because i dont know how
[10:27] <citronio> ScorpKing: then changed /media/cdrom0 with /media/cdrom, and still did not work...
[10:28] <maximander> kac: what does "hostname" output ?
[10:28] <Andeh> It just saves them as a pounce to send when he gets online!
[10:28] <credits> hi. could anyone help me?
[10:28] <eBoxNet> r u sure?
[10:28] <maximander> credits: ?
[10:28] <IndyLucian> i see the process 'ssh-agent'
[10:28] <kac> Nainet
[10:28] <ScorpKing> citronio: what are the error messages?
[10:28] <kac> which is technically right
[10:28] <citronio> the answer is /dev/sda is already mounted or cdrom busy...
[10:28] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers if i have the driver file... do I have to run it through the terminal to compile it or do i  just place it into a directory? I'm at a loss
[10:28] <Richter> Ol...
[10:28] <kac> but it gets reset when I start the computer again

[10:28] <ScorpKing> citronio: type mount
[10:28] <eBoxNet> i don't think thats the ssh server (i am not so sure but..)
[10:28] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:28] <kac> I think though that the echo thing you told me to do worked
[10:28] <maximander> kac: ok, now, go edit the /etc/hosts file
[10:29] <ScorpKing> citronio: is the cd mounted?
[10:29] <maximander> kac: nano -w /etc/hosts
[10:29] <ozzman> I tried to force it with module-assistant -f
[10:29] <Jordan_U> socca, Use compiz then, there really isn't that big of a difference
[10:29] <ozzman> anyone?
[10:29] <rafaelscj> I can't play .mpeg file, help...

[10:30] <eBoxNet> i sent u a link
[10:30] <IndyLucian> so i should do apt-get install openssh-server
[10:30] <kac> so it should be 127.0.0.1 [NewName]  localhost.localdomain [newName] ?
[10:30] <eBoxNet> yes
[10:30] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, What happens when you try to play it in totem ( movie player ) ?
[10:30] <ScorpKing> citronio: if you just type mount it will show a list of the mounted devices.
[10:30] <maximander> kac: the newname at the end is unneeded, but yes
[10:30] <eBoxNet> and then u can connect using ssh ip
[10:30] <kac> ok
[10:30] <maximander> save that by hitting ctrl-o
[10:31] <socca> Jordan_U: compiz run but i dont see any freature od 3D desktop,looks like standart,beril manager shows compiz runing,keys dont work
[10:31] <ozzman> simple q... how come when  su in terminal and then entering my pass does not allow me root access
[10:31] <citronio> ScorpKing: it is not listed no...
[10:31] <photo_nut> I have a USB external drive attached to my laptop. Is there a way to check it for errors before storing data on it?
[10:31] <rafaelscj> Totem... There isn't decod...
[10:31] <kac> maximander, alright I wrote that in, now how do I save?
[10:32] <ScorpKing> kac: after 127.0.0.1 you can specify more than one hostname with a space between them. i suggest you leave one of them on localhost
[10:32] <Jordan_U> socca, Have you installed all of the compiz packages for the settings manager and extra plugins?
[10:32] <stefg> photo_nut: man badblocks
[10:32] <ScorpKing> citronio: what are the hd's mounted as?
[10:32] <ozzman> ???
[10:32] <maximander> kac: ^^ "(01:30:56 PM) maximander: save that by hitting ctrl-o"
[10:32] <rafaelscj> no
[10:32] <ozzman> can any one help?
[10:32] <photo_nut> Thanks stefg
[10:32] <rafaelscj> standard instalation
[10:32] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, Are you using 7.04 ?
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> !root
[10:33] <ubotu> 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
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: ^^... su doesn't work in ubuntu by default
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> use sudo instead
[10:33] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[10:33] <squarebottle> I'm using an Ubuntu LiveCD to get some files from a non-booting Windows system onto an external HD, but it didn't mount the external HD as writable. How do I make it writable?
[10:33] <rafaelscj> I am using 6.06
[10:33] <ScorpKing> ozzman: su username and then type the password of the username. sudo su fr root.
[10:33] <citronio> ScorpKing: I am pretty sure they are the sda, sda1, sda2 and sda5... although I don't know why there are  4...
[10:33] <stefg> !ntfs-3g | squarebottle
[10:33] <ubotu> squarebottle: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:33] <badkitty> quick question: if I can't get my external hard drive to mount in ubuntu (it is all gravy in windows) and it worked last night, how do I get it to mount?
[10:33] <Jordan_U> squarebottle, It should mount rw by default from the LiveCD
[10:33] <socca> Jordan_U: i just look and its instaled ok,Apt have no problem
[10:34] <citronio> ScorpKing: I should only have 2... 2 partitions for one hd...
[10:34] <ozzman> Thank you new to linux
[10:34] <maximander> kac: you get that to save?
[10:34] <Jordan_U> socca, And do you have the cube enabled in compiz-settings ?
[10:34] <Greyscale> mm, compiz
[10:35] <badkitty> <-- beryl and twinview is SWEET
[10:35] <stefg> badkitty: try a different usb-port first
[10:35] <squarebottle> Jordan_U: It didn't. :P stefg and ubotu: And I can install and use the ntfs3g from the LiveCD?
[10:35] <rafaelscj> Jordan_U: I am using 6.06
[10:35] <badkitty> stefg: ok I will, its just weird because it worked last night
[10:35] <kac> Maximander, I got it to save
[10:35] <ScorpKing> citronio: if you type mount you should see something like '/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:35] <deathangel> Anyone know if your mac address changes automatically when you reformat ur hd?
[10:35] <Thanatos> Looks like Cmpiz/Beryl is the reason many people start using Ubuntu
[10:35] <maximander> kac, you should be done now
[10:35] <Jordan_U> squarebottle, It should be there by default, how did you mount it?
[10:35] <socca> Jordan_U: yes: cube enabled and bindind assumed,but dont work,thank for time i go search the problem
[10:35] <badkitty> stefg: didn't mount
[10:36] <stefg> badkitty: does it show up in sudo fdisk -l ?
[10:36] <ScorpKing> citronio: default is two, one for / and one for swap
[10:36] <citronio> ScorpKing: yes there is a: /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:36] <squarebottle> Jordan_U: It mounted itself. It mounted the Windows partition just fine, it's the external USB hard drive that it mounted as ro.
[10:36] <ozzman> HI, i am installing ATI drivers and i encountered a problem at this step sudo m-a build,install fglrx-kernel
[10:36] <kac> looks like I am going to need to reset for the changes to take affect.
[10:36] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Did restricted manager not work?
[10:36] <ScorpKing> citronio: then your cd-rom should be sdb
[10:37] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: why are you doing it that way? you can install the drivers using the Restricted Hardware Manager or Synaptic.
[10:37] <kac> Thank you, all.
[10:37] <SlimeyPete> that is the "official" Ubuntu way of doing things.
[10:37] <godofredo> Jordan_U, It's Me Again :)
[10:37] <photo_nut> I have a USB drive on my laptop. When I try to paste something into the drive I am told that I do not have permission. Can anyone tell me how to get permission?
[10:37] <phob> gr
[10:37] <Jordan_U> ozzman, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:37] <ozzman> i dont know my self
[10:37] <ozzman> lol
[10:37] <citronio> ScorpKing: this is the mount result: http://pastebin.com/d1f9d5c7d
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: check out the Restricted Hardware Manager in the System menu first
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> if that doesn't work, try using Synaptic from the System menu
[10:38] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Oh, and add a virtual USB controller so the VM can connect to the ipod
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> if that also doesn't work then try to do things manually :)
[10:38] <badkitty> stefg: I don't think so.. i have a lot of drives, but I don't think any of these match
[10:38] <ozzman> well, are they the same drivers as on ATI amd site?
[10:38] <godofredo> Jordan_U, that is what i was going to ask :)
[10:38] <godofredo> Jordan_U, So select usb controller?
[10:38] <SlimeyPete> ozzman: more or less. A little older, but still fairly up-to-date.
[10:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Yes
[10:39] <godofredo> Jordan_U, where do i point it to on the host computer?
[10:39] <stefg> badkitty: then it's hardware failure (bad cable, worn out connectors)
[10:39] <mhz`> hmm, i wonder if my usb thumb drive is automatically picked up in ubuntu
[10:39] <mhz`> i'll have to try that out
[10:39] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I don't know, keep the default
[10:39] <badkitty> stefg: It works in windows though I have dual boot
[10:39] <ScorpKing> citronio: no cd-rom! have you tried booting from a live cd and checking what it gets mounted as?
[10:40] <stefg> badkitty: plug it in, then inspect dmesg if there's any sign that it got recognized
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: i'll try, yes... thx... but i have the feeling I'll be back... ;)
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: thx a lot man!
[10:40] <ScorpKing> citronio: good luck. i have to go now, sorry. hope you come right. cheers
[10:40] <ozzman> What is the next step?
[10:40] <citronio> ScorpKing: no bother... thx a lot!
[10:40] <Jordan_U> ozzman, There is no second step :)
[10:41] <ScorpKing> citronio: np
[10:41] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Well, you have to restart X for it to take effect
[10:41] <ozzman> how do i install the drivers? lol
[10:41] <Jordan_U> ozzman, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:41] <badkitty> stefg: Ok it looks as if there were no errors... now what?
[10:42] <coopster> Is there a way to tell Ubuntu to run a certain command before unmounting a drive?
[10:42] <badkitty> ozzman, what are you trying to install?
[10:42] <IndyGunFreak> did xchat freeze up?
[10:42] <badkitty> cd /mnt
[10:43] <ozzman> Drivers for my ATI x1900 GT (X86_64)
[10:43] <IndyGunFreak> guess not.. never saw it so quiet here..lol
[10:43] <ceil420> what's a good (free) flash editor program thing? :o
[10:43] <stefg> badkitty: no errors? or no message (which means: not recognized) ?
[10:43] <mhz`> flash editor?
[10:43] <mhz`> like macromedia flash?
[10:43] <ozzman> I only have package manager
[10:43] <mhz`> or..
[10:43] <ceil420> yeah that one
[10:43] <badkitty> stefg: It looks as if there were no errors, however the drive did not show up on my desktop as it usually does
[10:43] <mhz`> dunno if there is a free thing
[10:44] <mhz`> ...www.google.com
[10:44] <mhz`> ?
[10:44] <badkitty> ozzman: what are you trying to install
[10:44] <ceil420> i've been all over google ;x
[10:44] <rec0m> ozzman: I think the package you want is xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:44] <ceil420> and sourceforge
[10:44] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Are the drivers listed in Restricted Manager?
[10:44] <ozzman> badkitty: Drivers for my ATI x1900 GT (X86_64)
[10:44] <stefg> badkitty: pastebin your dmesg
[10:44] <ceil420> i tried open office's presentation thing (which can make .swf files), but it's horrible tbh :x
[10:44] <stefg> !paste | badkitty
[10:44] <ubotu> badkitty: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:45] <badkitty> i know k.. 1 sec
[10:45] <ozzman> i cant find restricted manager i only see package manager
[10:45] <badkitty> what is ozz trying to do?
[10:45] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Are you using Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[10:45] <Jordan_U> badkitty, He is trying to install fglrx
[10:45] <kac> Hello, again everyone. Turns out I could still use some help.
[10:45] <mhz`> ceil420, my only suggestion would be to try wine + flash mx
[10:45] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is It Necessary To Have Anti-Virus For My Virtual Installation Of Windows XP?
[10:45] <SORMANOV> hello all
[10:46] <ceil420> wine can't even handle mIRC right, but i'm startin' to think i don't really have a choice :x
[10:46] <ceil420> cheers o/
[10:46] <mhz`> you're virtually installing xp?
[10:46] <Jordan_U> godofredo, If it is going to be connected to the internet :)
[10:46] <ilu> anyone know the irc command to get the name of all channels in a network?
[10:46] <ozzman> Jordan_U: yes, 7.04 X86_64
[10:46] <mhz`> ceil, i know the feeling
[10:46] <mhz`> i'm in xp b/c i'm working..but once work is done..booting into ubuntu
[10:46] <kac> Here is the problem so far.
[10:46] <mhz`> i wish there was a *nix port of mirc
[10:46] <SORMANOV> i want to get my ubuntu booting and staying on console without starting X automaticaly, to start it, user shoul login and execute startx
[10:46] <mhz`> i'm mixed on xchat
[10:46] <stefg> !info ksirc | mhz`
[10:46] <kac> I have edited both /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname
[10:47] <Jordan_U> ozzman, And there is no "Restricted Driver Manager" in the System -> Administration menu?
[10:47] <ubotu> mhz`: ksirc: IRC client for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu9 (feisty), package size 731 kB, installed size 2440 kB
[10:47] <ceil420> yeah, the main thing i miss about windows is mIRC and it's very easy scripting language :x
[10:47] <Grub21> i just installed Ubuntu 7.04 on hdb3 , i also have Mepis on hda1. After the installation i rebooted and received this error : Grup loading: error 21, what should i do?
[10:47] <mhz`> ooh, i forgot about ksirc
[10:47] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[10:47] <kac> The changes I made remained after the system restart
[10:47] <JayRoe> is it possible to create a restore point in Feisty?
[10:47] <Enron> stefg Done downloading do I need to extract the linux-source-2.6.15.tar.bz2?
[10:47] <Lucretia> My ATi graphics card wouldn't use direct rendering and showed that it was using Mesa. I've searched around and only found 1 way to fix it, the chmod 666 /dev/dri/*, is there a more permanent way to fix it?
[10:47] <Enron> even when I ran apt-get install linux-source
[10:47] <mhz`> lol, i do my special alias and tiny scripts
[10:47] <stefg> Enron: yes
[10:47] <ozzman> Jordan_U: No, the closest to it is Synaptic package manager
[10:47] <mhz`> w/ basic mirc
[10:47] <kac> however the hostname I set by commandline didn't stick and once again my admin GUI utilities are failing
[10:48] <rec0m> JayRoe: you can try TimeVault, but it's like alpha atm
[10:48] <guardian> hi
[10:48] <stefg> Enron: so that the linux-2.6.20-foo.bar dir is in /usr/src
[10:48] <guardian> does ubuntu run on the new santa rosa mac book pros ?
[10:48] <JayRoe> rec0m, thanks for the advice :)
[10:48] <squarebottle> Changed external HD format to FAT32, and it mounted as rw without any problems. Thanks.
[10:48] <kac> Maximander, any ideas?
[10:48] <ceil420> i had a full featured stereo, a groovie quote script (with alias, popup, and dialog triggers), and a theme script (not using MTS) as part of my 'basic package' :p
[10:48] <mwe> kac: don't know about GUI but hostname 'blah' is temp. you need to change /etc/hosts for a permanent change
[10:48] <ceil420> i also had a metronome and guitar chord lister
[10:48] <keitaro> hi
[10:48] <kac> I did
[10:48] <Jordan_U> ozzman, That is odd, try:  sudo apt-get install restricted-manager
[10:49] <kac> it currently looks like this:
[10:49] <joules> so take this question funny one... i thought i was somewhat experienced with the ubuntu OS... right getting acquainted with the terminal .. gone through 1/2 video players finally getting to VLS and so on ... however just now i decided to stop playing with the big toys and play with the little ones.. like my panels .. so i changed names on my work spaces.... (i am using beryl)
[10:49] <joules> anyhow question is when you move the beryl cube arent you switching spaces? however when i click on the spaces panel .. it shows me a blank workspace... does this mean that i actually have 4x4 spaces? or what?
[10:49] <keitaro> can somebody help me with a problem with wine?
[10:49] <ceil420> (plus countless little utilities, like $rn for a random nick, and /gmsg to send a message across all networks, and a clone scanner, etc etc)
[10:49] <rolfen> bubbely-boo
[10:49] <kac> Maximander, 127.0.0.1 Nainet localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:49] <ozzman> cool
[10:49] <badkitty> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29706/
[10:49] <ozzman> now i see it
[10:49] <maximander> kac: what is the output of hostname and hostname -f when executed on cmdline?
[10:49] <keitaro> please?
[10:49] <stefg> badkitty: k, sec
[10:49] <mwe> kac: I see
[10:49] <kac> the output of hostname is
[10:50] <ozzman> it tells me i need to install it?
[10:50] <mwe> kac: I think two IPs in the 127.*.*.* domain is default
[10:50] <godofredo> Jordan_U, If I Have 512mb Of RAM Is It Okay To Dedicate 256mb To The Virtual Installation?
[10:50] <Jordan_U> ozzman, Say yes
[10:50] <SORMANOV> i want to get my ubuntu booting and staying on console without starting X automaticaly, to start it, user shoul login and execute startx
[10:50] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I would say so
[10:50] <kac> hostname -f results in unknown host
[10:50] <godofredo> Jordan_U, May I Ask Why ? :)
[10:51] <AmyRose> Are there any good reasons to use the generic kernel instead of the lowlatency one?
[10:51] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Because Windows needs it more than Ubuntu :)
[10:51] <Pirate_Hunter> is possible to run xp inside Feisty with only 224 Ram, I know thats quite low but i need to use it on this PC for testing purpose before transferring to the main comp?
[10:51] <guardian> does ubuntu run on the new santa rosa mac book pros ?
[10:51] <rolfen> SORMANOV: I'm not sure but i think you should disable the gdm service in all runlevels to have that result
[10:51] <maximander> SORMANOV:  disable gdm
[10:51] <Lucretia> anyone?
[10:51] <rec0m> guardian: I hear the graphics card driver sucks
[10:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, How Much Should I Dedicate to Windows Then?
[10:51] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Windoze Is Virtual
[10:51] <Grub21> i just installed Ubuntu 7.04 on hdb3 , i also have Mepis on hda1. After the installation i rebooted and received this error : Grub loading: error 21, what should i do?
[10:52] <Jordan_U> guardian, I don't think it runs well yet
[10:52] <ozzman> Jordan_U: it installed it but when i open it it pops an error box "you must install the package"
[10:52] <guardian> rec0m: oh :( however it's an nvidia, and nvidia+linux==great most of the time :(
[10:52] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Yes, that is more than enough
[10:52] <rolfen> SORMANOV: by using update-rc.d
[10:52] <rec0m> guarndian: yeah but they don't have official support for the 8*** series yet I think
[10:52] <badkitty> speaking  of running windows xp inside of linux, is there an appliance for winxp pro I can download or do I have to make my own out of my installation?
[10:52] <kac> maximander, hostname -f results in the line reading : "hostname: Unknown host"
[10:53] <ozzman> Jordan_U: this is the file it tells me to install
[10:53] <ozzman>   linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[10:53] <Jordan_U> ozzman, What package does it say you need? ( this should all have come by default BTW )
[10:53] <maximander> kac: edit hosts again, make it read 127.0.0.1     newhost.localdomain newhost localhost localhost.localdomain
[10:53] <deathangel> does anyone know why starting programs in a term window causes errors to be displayed in the window? ex. konqueror?
[10:53] <stefg> badkitty: looks fine so far... so the drive got /dev/sdc afaics. does sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt work ?
[10:53] <SORMANOV> rolfen, how to know the current working init of ubuntu ?
[10:53] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U, nice very nice. Which app would you advise me to use for virtualisation at the moment im thinking of Virtual box but is that really stable and simple to use?
[10:53] <younghacker> I've set up pure ftp and I have one item on my site,,, I can't seem to browse to their from mozilla on the local box ,, any ideas why?
[10:53] <rolfen> SORMANOV: you mean /etc/init.d ?
[10:54] <kac> ok
[10:54] <Jordan_U> ozzman, sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic
[10:54] <zoidberg_> hey guys i have a question
[10:54] <SORMANOV> rolfen, wich runlevel its working ?
[10:54] <maximander> SORMANOV: `runlevel`
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Oh, sorry I misread that, I didn't see the part about "xp inside of" :(
[10:55] <younghacker> can someone help me configure pure ftp server ?
[10:55] <zoidberg_> i have theis cheap concord eye-Q go lcd digital camera that i use as a webcam on windows....can i get it to work on ubuntu?
[10:55] <rec0m> guardian: mmm I guess some ppl got beta drivers to work, see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2791480
[10:55] <ozzman> Jordan_U: cool, thanks allot
[10:55] <guardian> thx
[10:55] <rolfen> SORMANOV: type runlevel in your terminal to get the current runlevel
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, I don't know how well windows will run on low RAM, I use VMware Server but I havn't tried virtual box yet
[10:55] <SORMANOV> ok
[10:55] <SORMANOV> thanks rolfen maximander
[10:56] <Jordan_U> ozzman, np
[10:56] <SORMANOV> what is rcS.d for ?
[10:56] <rolfen> btw i'm really surprised... why is my runlevel 2 and i'm running x and all... on fedora it was like 5
[10:56] <tondar> hey all
[10:56] <kac> so it goes: 127.0.0.1 Nainet.localdomain Nainet localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:56] <zoidberg_> can anyone help me?
[10:56] <zoidberg_> i have theis cheap concord eye-Q go lcd digital camera that i use as a webcam on windows....can i get it to work on ubuntu?
[10:56] <rolfen> SORMANOV: i dont know
[10:56] <stefg> rolfen: ubunbtu is different :-)
[10:56] <IndyLucian> why the heck wont my recycle bin show there is trash in it
[10:56] <mwe> rolfen: because it's default in ubuntu and runlevels don't differ much by default
[10:56] <maximander> kac: save and try hostname and hostname -f again
[10:56] <tondar> ok got compiz fusion started but how come some of the effects wont work??!!
[10:56] <IndyLucian> there is 54 files in there
[10:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: lol i found it strange but still im guessing not, well just wanted to test some aps that dont run on wine or even crossover. I guess I have to run it on windows which will be a problem in Feisty and yeah the low ram thing on this comp is a bugger but i just cant be bothered upgrading it
[10:56] <tondar> please guide
[10:57] <rolfen> SORMANOV: but you should better use update-rc.d to disable gdm
[10:57] <godofredo> IndyLucian, X not refreshing ?
[10:57] <badkitty> stefg: there wasn't any errors in bash when I didn that but I dont see the drive
[10:57] <badkitty> cd /
[10:57] <kac> hostname gives a blank line
[10:57] <IndyLucian> godofredo, how do i test if that's the cash and if it is, how do i fix it
[10:57] <Stufkan> hello people
[10:57] <kac> and hostname -f gives "hostname: Unknown host"
[10:57] <mwe> update-rc.d forgets the order of the disabled service
[10:57] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Out of curiosity what app?
[10:57] <mwe> rcconf or bum
[10:57] <younghacker> is there a an online site for configuring pure ftp server ?
[10:57] <tondar> compiz fusion > some effects wont work, any ideas? (cube)
[10:58] <stefg> badkitty: inspect /mnt (there will be no icon on desktop, b/c we mounted in a non-standard dir)
[10:58] <maximander> kac: umm...  that's not right...
[10:58] <godofredo> IndyLucian, honestly, I don't know. It was an idea, you should bring that idea to someone more experienced in ubuntu...sorry :(
[10:58] <tondar> got beryl installed
[10:58] <badkitty> tondar: twinview and beryl...ROCKS
[10:58] <IndyLucian> i did F5 for a desktop refresh but that didn't do anything
[10:58] <Enron> stefg I got an error when trying to build http://phpfi.com/249372
[10:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: m,obile connection apps, i need to use my fones with the PC and there CDs dotn run well or at all with wine
[10:58] <mwe> tondar: good, now go to #ubuntu-effects to get support ;)
[10:58] <tondar> badkitty: i already have beryl
[10:58] <kac> Maximander, I think what happened is when I erased my hostname and saved it using the GUI admin Networking tool, what I did was passed it a null pointer.
[10:59] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: also there are a few other apps I have to run which require a windows environment like VB
[10:59] <IndyLucian> ubuntu - recycle bin isn't showing there is trash in there when there is. how do i fix?
[10:59] <rolfen> SORMANOV: I'm not sure but i thing "update-rc.d -f gdm remove" should do it
[10:59] <badkitty> stefg: but I cannot browse to the /mnt directory it says permission denied and I can't sudo my way into it
[10:59] <maximander> kac: does the GUI System -> admin ->network -> General work?
[10:59] <tondar> badkitty: twinview?
[10:59] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, eww, VB
[10:59] <kac> Maximander, as I said no.
[10:59] <badkitty> tondar: dual monitors
[10:59] <mwe> sometimes dhcp screws with the hostname
[10:59] <maximander> kac, ok, let's run this from the top
[10:59] <stefg> badkitty: does ls -la /mnt show anything in the term?
[10:59] <maximander> kac: terminal, sudo su -
[11:00] <mwe> poking in /etc/dhcp3/* can fix that
[11:00] <badkitty> permission denied
[11:00] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: ... heh? i guess you dont like Visual Basic?
[11:00] <badkitty> stefg: permission denied
[11:00] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Not at all :)
[11:00] <kac> Maximander, when I go to run it the box pops up along the bottom of the screen, it sits for a few seconds and then simply fails.
[11:00] <Yasumoto> IndyLucian: can you try removing then re-inserting the bin into the panel?
[11:00] <IndyLucian> let me do that right quick
[11:01] <Enron> stefg I got an error when trying to build http://phpfi.com/249372
[11:01] <tondar> badkitty: oh man
[11:01] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: dont blame you but than python/ruby etc are all messed up for me its like chinese in my point of view which I cnat speak :(
[11:01] <tondar> lucky you
[11:01] <stefg> Enron: put a symlink 'linux' to the source dir you just unpacked, like ln -s linux-2.6.15 linux
[11:01] <IndyLucian> Yasumoto, no luck
[11:01] <kac> Maximander, I am in terminal I have ran sudo su It gave "sudo: unable to lookup  via gethostbyname()
[11:01] <kac> Password:
[11:01] <kac> " as my prompt
[11:01] <m1r> where can i remove gnome-splash screen in gconf-editor
[11:01] <kac> I input password it dropped me into root.
[11:02] <maximander> kac: on your root prompt: echo "nainet" > /etc/hostname && nano -w /etc/hosts
[11:02] <Jordan_U> Pirate_Hunter, Have you read dive into python? ( sorry to go off topic )
[11:02] <stefg> Enron: although that's he convention, i'm afraid it will not mak it build
[11:02] <Enron> same error
[11:02] <badkitty> tondar: yah it is sweet... the cube is REALLY BIG and the windows maximize per monitor so an app is full screen per each monitor... of course I can stretch accross both if I want to be ridiculous
[11:02] <Leftmost> I'd like to upgrade a Feisty install to Gutsy but I'm not entirely clear on the procedure for this. I have update-manager 0.59.23 installed and I've done update-manager -d, but nothing shows. How might I go about fixing this?
[11:02] <stefg> badkitty: huh? ... that's funny ... sudo ls -la /mnt ?
[11:02] <badkitty> stefg: yah
[11:02] <Pirate_Hunter> Jordan_U: nope not really just looked at some of the codes and texts but haven't put my head into it
[11:03] <badkitty> stefg: ok it did a bunch of crazy stuff
[11:03] <Enron> stefg it's the same error, am I typing in the wrong syntax or am I missing something
[11:03] <Jordan_U> Leftmost, Are you prepared for package breakage and possible loss of all your data?
[11:03] <maximander> kac, now, inside nano make try making the 127.0.0.1 line read "127.0.0.1 <tab> nainet nainet.localdomain localhost localhost.localdomain"
[11:03] <SlimG2> Is there a way to convert a filename to lowercase?
[11:04] <tarzeau> SlimG2: using rename
[11:04] <Leftmost> Jordan_U, my Ubuntu partition isn't my main install, so yes.
[11:04] <badkitty> stefg: It is showing me a bunch of files with their permissions now... don't see the external drive...
[11:04] <Jordan_U> Leftmost, #ubuntu+1
[11:04] <maximander> kac: if there is a line below which starts 127.0.1.1, make it read "127.0.1.1<tab>nainet"
[11:04] <stefg> Enron: no, i promised it to be a pita... the source isn't just exactly the same as the running kernel
[11:04] <maximander> kac: obviously, replace those "<tab>" things with real tabs
[11:05] <Leftmost> Thank you, Jordan_U.
[11:05] <Jordan_U> Leftmost, np
[11:05] <stefg> badkitty: so this should be the contents of the drive, not the itself . so what does mount (no arguments tell you about /dev/sdc ?
[11:05] <maximander> kac: then try hostname and hostname -f again... they should return "nainet" and "nainet.localdomain"
[11:06] <badkitty> stefg: oh... ok that makes sense
[11:06] <zoidberg_> i have theis cheap concord eye-Q go lcd digital camera that i use as a webcam on windows....can i get it to work on ubuntu?
[11:06] <mhz`> i wanna get a new computer :/
[11:06] <badkitty> can't find /dev/sdc in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[11:06] <kac> Same output for hostname and hostname -f
[11:06] <Thanatos> Don't we all, mhz'
[11:06] <stefg> badkitty: so is this the content of the drive you are expecting ?
[11:07] <badkitty> stefg: yah it is
[11:07] <maximander> kac: prolly because i had you put the short name "nainet" before the fully qualified "Nainet.localdomain"... but that's OK
[11:07] <badkitty> stefg: yah it is
[11:07] <maximander> kac: at least they both have output
[11:07] <mwe> changing /etc/hosts /etc/hostname doesn't have any immediate effect here
[11:07] <mwe> I think it used to
[11:07] <stefg> badkitty: ok, so we have a readable filesystem... good. sudo umount /mnt
[11:07] <kac> well I mean, they both output what they have output before.
[11:07] <maximander> kac: Oh....
[11:08] <Enron> stefg so what do I do
[11:08] <kac> an empty line for hostname and "hostname: Unknown hostname" for hostname -f
[11:08] <mwe> kac: changing /etc/hosts /etc/hostname doesn't have any immediate effect here
[11:08] <maximander> mwe: why's that?
[11:09] <mwe> maximander: I have no idea I think it used to
[11:09] <mwe> maximander: before feisty
[11:09] <kac> I would think so. When I reset the hostname with the Admin tool it required me to shutdown the computer and restart for it to have affect.
[11:09] <emixam> hi everybody
[11:09] <stefg> Enron: follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild to get the proper source (and consider you've spent some bucks on acronis, so ask their support)
[11:09] <badkitty> stefg: yes done. So it is requiring that a root user only can mount that drive, but then I cannot access the /mnt dir cause I am not root
[11:09] <mwe> maximander: and for the last several years on other boxes as well
[11:10] <badkitty> stefg: would it just have to be mounted to a different directory?
[11:10] <kac> certain apps, like the admins tools themselves, rely somehow on the hostname of the computer to function.
[11:10] <stefg> badkitty: this was a test to verify the hardware and the filesystem
[11:10] <kac> I think it has to do with access privileges.
[11:10] <stefg> badkitty: is your user member of group 'plugdev' ?
[11:10] <zoidberg_> can someone please help me get a webcam to work?
[11:10] <badkitty> stefg: true, but I did say it JUST worked in winxp, so I knew it was working
[11:10] <stefg> badkitty: that's not a reference :-)
[11:11] <badkitty> stefg: Well I am on the admin account right now so it should be. (ok reference)
[11:11] <kac> mve, maximander, should I restart and see what happens?
[11:11] <mwe> kac: supposing /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname are correct now I think it will work if you set the hostname with the hostname command or reboot. I don't know why it doesn't work immediatly after changing the hosts file anymore
[11:11] <mwe> kac: I thought it should work right away but it doesn't seem to be the case
[11:12] <psusi> does anyone know how to configure fetchmail to NOT validate the server's certificate?
[11:12] <psusi> there is an option TO check, but I can't figure out how to tell it NOT to
[11:12] <stefg> badkitty: what's in your /media -dir?
[11:12] <maximander> mwe: Where does it cache it?
[11:12] <kac> ok I used cmdline: hostname Nainet
[11:12] <clea> koudelka
[11:12] <kac> now hostname outputs Nainet and hostname -f outputs -f
[11:12] <mwe> maximander: I have no idea. I just found out it doesn't work anymore. it used to for several years on sevaral boxes on varios distros
[11:13] <kac> err: Nainet
[11:13] <badkitty> sorry beryl crashed
[11:13] <maximander> mwe: yeah... i had no clue it didn't work... been using it on gentoo and production (dapper) ubuntu servers
[11:13] <kac> mve, maximander, I am going to restart I'll see you two in a few minutes.
[11:13] <Orraj> how do you install scanner drivers if i have the driver file... do I have to run it through the terminal to compile it or do i  just place it into a directory? I'm at a loss
[11:13] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[11:14] <mwe> maximander: yeah it's odd
[11:14] <badkitty> stefg: so what was the group again?
[11:14] <stefg> badkitty: plugdev
[11:14] <badkitty> I dont see that group
[11:15] <Pirate_Hunter> Is there a way for me to listen to my backed up musci which the format is .wma and is licenced protected without me having to download WM player?
[11:15] <F3E8A2F3> \q
[11:15] <Jack_Sparrow> My mouse wheel randomly dies.. I can get it to work by  sudo modprobe -r psmouse then sudo modprobe psmouse  any way to fix the random death of my mouse?

[11:16] <badkitty> stefg: yah... Im in user management-manage groups, and I dont see a plugdev group
[11:16] <MFen> is anyone familiar enough with adobe connect and/or gotomeeting to tell me whether there is something similar that runs on ubuntu?
[11:16] <MFen> essentially, screencast your desktop online
[11:17] <MFen> (and easy enough to use that business dummies can figure out how to connect to it)
[11:17] <mwe> maximander: changing the hosts file doesn't work immediatly for you either in feisty?
[11:17] <godofredo> Jordan_U, Is It Possible To Use A TV Tuner In Ubuntu? :)
[11:17] <Serious`> hi all
[11:17] <badkitty> godofredo: yes it is, look into mythtv while your at it!
[11:17] <stefg> badkitty: just checked... it's disguised in some common speech name like 'automatically access external drives' ...(back translated from german)
[11:17] <badkitty> godofredo: they actually have cards just for linux too
[11:18] <badkitty> stefg: the group name?
[11:18] <kac> Maximander, mve. Thanks guys. I'm back in business.
[11:18] <godofredo> badkitty, I was able to watch television on xp media center edition, now that i've ditched XP how do i get that feature in ubuntu?
[11:19] <stefg> badkitty: why not just run sudo adduser <username> plugdev ... you'll get an response if you were already a member
[11:19] <coopster> godofredo, use MythTV
[11:19] <ilu> why in f gods name does not firefox accept that i have enabled all god damn javas and installed it? it still comblaints that i have not enabled it
[11:19] <Jordan_U> !tv | godofredo
[11:19] <ubotu> godofredo: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out
[11:19] <badkitty> godofredo: You'll want to look  into mythtv and democracy player.. never used them but I am setting up a system for it
[11:20] <badkitty> stefg: already a member
[11:21] <Justi1> Why don't screen savers work when the computer is on battery power?
[11:21] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[11:21] <rec0m> Justil: probably because the timer to blackout screen is shorter than screensaver timer
[11:22] <DaH-RaT> 32bit ditro but i have an AMD64 cpou, so i would get i386 packs or amd64 packs?
[11:22] <Justi1> rec0m: I put it into lock screen by pressing ctrl alt L
[11:22] <stefg> badkitty: ok... so these were the standard checks. somehow hal or gnome-vfs or udev or whoever is responsible for automounting got a cold. sometimes the issue is related to a mountpoint in /media not being available because of a previously existing one with the same name
[11:22] <afief> Lucretia, they include everything, even the kitchen sink as loadable modules(diskspace is cheap, ram is still costs a bit)
[11:22] <Lucretia> aye
[11:23] <Lucretia> just surprised
[11:23] <stefg> badkitty: i tend to suggset a reboot and see if that changes anything
[11:23] <Lucretia> afi: any idea about my ati prob?
[11:23] <bliss123> hi
[11:23] <badkitty> stefg: I have rebooted to no avail, but for good measure I will reboot again, brb k?
[11:23] <stefg> badkitty: no much use if you already checked that
[11:23] <Justi1> are there any power management settings other than those listed in System>Preferences>Power Management?
[11:24] <cg0def> can someone help me with alsa? oss works but alsa does not ...
[11:24] <bliss123> want to know how this instruction would look on the command line  copy /boot/config-$(uname -r) to /usr/src/linux/.config and the symlink /usr/src/linux pointing to /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.18
[11:25] <nouri> Hi!  I just upgraded to 6.10 and now my system stops rebooting at /scripts/init-bottom
[11:25] <Taco`> can someone help me with user accounts? i can't login with my other username, it says something about an xsession error
[11:25] <nouri> I'd like to try out 7.04 and its kernel -- however, not being able to boot, what are my options to install it, and not replace the existing install?
[11:25] <Lucretia> afief: any idea about my ati prob?
[11:25] <Serious`> hi can i install ubuntu from boot ?
[11:25] <Lucretia> afief: also, can the older kernels be removed? if so, how?
[11:25] <badkitty> stefg: Do you think I should try to mount the drive into /media instead of /mnt?
[11:26] <m1r> where can i disable gnome-splash in gconf-editor ?
[11:26] <afief> Lucretia, well, I don't know what your prob is(and i'm not an expert) but if you tell me i can give it a shot
[11:26] <ilu> how to i install a file with the ending *.bin?
[11:26] <mwe> anyone know what changed in feisty since editing /etc/hosts doesn't change the hostname anymore?
[11:26] <badkitty> dah_rat: I would suggest the i386
[11:26] <ilu> its realplayer and google earth
[11:26] <mwe> it seems you need to edit /etc/hostname now
[11:26] <Lucretia> afief: My ATi graphics card wouldn't use direct rendering and showed that it was using Mesa. I've searched around and only found 1 way to fix it, the chmod 666 /dev/dri/*, is there a more permanent way to fix it?
[11:27] <afief> Lucretia, you can remove them in synaptic, search for linux and remove what you don't need(this often includes meta-packages and dependencies such as the restrictied drivers or stuff)
[11:27] <stefg> badkitty: /media is the standard locaton for external media (Duh!) /mnt is just a temporary mountpoint for the sysadmin
[11:27] <stefg> badkitty: have you done anything in /etc/fstab .... maybe assigned /dev/sdc to something else?
[11:27] <esun819> hi for realplayer for linux (in the canonical commercial repo) has anyone else noticed the issue with not being able to play other media/sound files simoultaneously?
[11:28] <ilu> how do i install a *.bin file?
[11:28] <toed> is there a way to restart all the sound stuff without rebooting?
[11:28] <toed> firefox crashed and now I'm not getting any sound in anything
[11:28] <mwe> ilu: chmod +x it then run it as root
[11:28] <mwe> ilu: take care, though
[11:28] <Taco`> can someone help me with my xsession problem? :(
[11:28] <mwe> ilu: don't run random binaries
[11:28] <badkitty> stefg: Not that I am aware of, I installed a few things last night using automatix (hangs head in shame) but other than that I cant think of any reason it would stop mounting
[11:28] <Serious`> can i install ubuntu from boot ?
 k
[11:29] <godofredo> badkitty, how do i install democracy player?
[11:29] <Lucretia> afief: nah, cannot see the kernels
[11:29] <js_> when i want to move/resize windows i have to target exactly on the window title/edges, and i miss it a lot.. is there any way to change that? i believe its different in fedora
[11:29] <stefg> badkitty: automatix is pretty much a reason why it stopped automounting
[11:29] <nouri> Is there a way to install 7.04 on top of 6.10 without booting into the 6.10 system?
[11:29] <stefg> !automatix | badkitty
[11:29] <ubotu> badkitty: 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
[11:30] <afief> Lucretia, you'll see something called Linux 2.6.x.y
[11:30] <mwe> nouri: just install over it from the CD
[11:30] <badkitty> stefg: haha... figures.. i got lazy and this is what I get...
[11:30] <goldbond> is there an easy way to download an image from the web from the commandline?
[11:30] <Taco`> goldbond, wget ?
[11:30] <nouri> mwe: "on top" meaning it shouldn't erase the 6.10 installation
[11:30] <badkitty> stefg: I have had problems with it before...but figured it may have been something i did wrong... now Im sure it wasn't
[11:30] <afief> Lucretia, sorry can't help with your ATI problem as i never faced it and don't even know what DRI is(told you not an expert... yet)
[11:30] <nouri> mwe: i.e. upgrade
[11:30] <goldbond> taco`: it works thanks
 after i have done the chmod +x <filename> what should i do? just type the name to execute it?
[11:30] <mwe> nouri: I think you need to boot the system then
[11:31] <mwe> ilu: sudo file.bin
[11:31] <nouri> mwe: Crap... I can't :(
[11:31] <mwe> ilu: probably
[11:31] <mwe> ilu: depending on what it is and where it want to install
[11:31] <mwe> nouri: why not?
 RealPlayer/Google earth. your tip did not work btw
[11:32] <nouri> mwe: It stops booting at a seemingly unrelated message: Running /scripts/init-bottom (or some such)
[11:32] <badkitty> godofredo: try this  http://www.getdemocracy.com/downloads/ubuntu.php
[11:32] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: your'e trying to install realplayer and google earth?
[11:32] <stefg> badkitty: so yor options are a.) reinstall b.) go to #automatix and shout at /them/ :-)
[11:32] <mwe> nouri: in that case back up important stuff from a live CD and reinstall might be easiest if you can mange to fix the boot issue
[11:32] <badkitty> stefg: so you recommend starting over...
 well i downloaded realplayer because i wanted to install it and it was this bin file
[11:32] <nouri> mwe: I see; thanks
[11:32] <ilu> i have no clue how to get it to work
[11:32] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: ok, hang on
[11:32] <ilu> i thought bin file was binary and readdy to execute
[11:32] <ilu> sure
[11:33] <badkitty> stefg: Ok if I have to start over, then it's fine cause I just installed yesterday... no biggie
[11:33] <mwe> ilu: google earth can install to your homedir I think. personally I installed it with sudo to do it system wide, though.
[11:33] <stefg> badkitty: as mentioned in the factoid... automatix makes errors untraceable... better start over
[11:33] <rec0m> ilu: should be like ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin to execute it
[11:33] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: type this.. w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[11:33] <badkitty> stefg: Ok never again shall I use automatix... see people don't try to cut corners!
 funny man
[11:34] <IndyGunFreak> ilu: why is that funny?
[11:34] <Lucretia> efief: I thought the update manager was the same app as synaptic ;) doh!
[11:34] <badkitty> stefg: do you recommend edgy over fiesty? I probably want to install lapache mysql and php5 as well
 thanks man it worked... it installed itself
[11:34] <Enron> stefg i'm using 2.6.15-23-server
[11:34] <mwe> ilu: just sudo file.bin for google earth is what I did
[11:34] <davey> does anyone know off the top of their head the binary that is used to set the timezone and current time in Gnome? I need to do it over ssh -X :)
[11:34] <stefg> badkitty: (tongue in cheek) skip edgy ..... brrrr
[11:34] <fsckr> http://fsckr.net/images/screeny.jpg
[11:34] <IndyGunFreak> badkitty: automatix isn't that bad, i don't recommend it, but its not that bad.. biggest problem seems to come when updating.
[11:35] <mwe> davey: date
[11:35] <davey> mwe: I want the UI version :)
[11:35] <mwe> davey: I don't know such fancy things, sorry
[11:35] <Jordan_U> davey, gnome-session ;)
[11:35] <cntrlx> do you have to have gaim uninstalled before make pidgin
[11:35] <badkitty> Indygunfreak: I actually had automatix try to install an UPGRADE that had already been upgraded, which crashed the system nonetheless
[11:36] <davey> holy bejesus Jordan_U
[11:36] <IndyGunFreak> badkitty: hmm, bad luck i guess..
[11:36] <rlo> Anyone know if the 64 bit version will run on a Turion?
[11:36] <rockets> rlo, a Turion 64? Yes it will.
 when i have installed it how do i execute it?
[11:36] <Jordan_U> davey, Never done that before eh? :)
[11:36] <rlo> thanks rockets
[11:36] <mwe> rlo: it should I think. be prepared to deal with issues in the 64 bit version, though.
[11:36] <rockets> rlo, thats why it has "64" in the name
[11:36] <IndyGunFreak> only thing i've ever used it for, is to install the Nvidia drivers, and i probably wouldn't use it for that again, i just didn't know how to do it.
[11:36] <badkitty> stefg: so... you don't like edgy? I'm not sure what you meant
[11:36] <KI4IKL> My usb mouse keeps freezing up, at random intervals, unplugging and plugging back in doesn't work...I have to reboot.Anyone have any ideas?
[11:36] <broedje>  cntrlx: i didnt, i think
[11:36] <rec0m> ilu: google earth should have a shortcut under Applications/Internet
[11:37] <samwize> KI4IKL: check your driver
[11:37] <broedje> #cuz i wanted it to stay gaim :-P
 what about realplayer?
[11:37] <broedje> but it didnt worked
[11:37] <KI4IKL> samiam, it's done it on two completely different mie.
[11:37] <KI4IKL> mice
[11:37] <mwe> rlo: a lot of closed source crap don't play well with the 64 bit version
[11:37] <badkitty> KI4IKL: try a new mouse it could be going bad. Mine was doing that for a while, and it ended up being the mouse
[11:37] <IndyGunFreak> Google Earth is crazy.. in a great way
[11:37] <rec0m> ilu: probably under Applications/Sound&Video
[11:37] <KI4IKL> badkitty, two mice :0
[11:37] <stefg> badkitty... edgy is the most bug ridden ubuntu-release imho... use feisty, far better (or dapper if you are conservative)
[11:37] <KI4IKL> I've tried two different mice.
[11:37] <rockets> mwe, well I didn't say I reccomended running 64 bit :-P
[11:37] <rockets> mwe, I said it would run.
[11:37] <mwe> rockets: yeah
[11:37] <IndyGunFreak> stefg: bug ridden?.. hmm
[11:37] <samwize> the usb driver must be corrupted
[11:38] <rockets> Good luck spending the entire weekend getting flash to work on 64 bit
[11:38] <godofredo> badkitty, i had many issues with edgy, feisty is definitely more features, and stability
[11:38] <KI4IKL> How do I reinstall the usb drivers?
[11:38] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, There is a reason why it is called "edgy" :)
[11:38] <mwe> rockets: if you run a server or oss only it should be fine
[11:38] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: lol
[11:38] <rockets> mwe, yup.
[11:38] <samwize> go to device manager and check the usb driver section
[11:38] <rockets> mwe, but its a bad idea on the desktop. at least for now
[11:38] <samwize> to get there right-click on my computer
[11:38] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: i guess the thing is, i didn't have a single issue with Dapper, edgy, or as of yet, Feisty
[11:38] <badkitty> mwe: Yeah even if you have 64 bit processor- use i386 to make your life livable
[11:38] <cntrlx> i keep getting a core not found whe nit starts to fu
[11:38] <rockets> mwe, Only reason I'd run 64 bit on a workstation is if I were constantly compiling things
[11:39] <mwe> badkitty: right
[11:39] <mwe> hopefully it will change soon
[11:39] <mwe> been waiting for years already, though.
[11:39] <badkitty> mwe: I made the same mistake a long time ago, actually went back to windows for a while...
[11:39] <KI4IKL> umm....samwize, where is the device manage,r it doesn't show up under system>preferences or system>administration
[11:39] <lufis> Is there an image manipulation app which will let me crop a JPEG losslessly?
[11:40] <mwe> badkitty: yesh
 hey man i remade the realplayer installation... to what folder should i install it?
[11:40] <samwize> KI4IKL: right click my computer and hit manage
[11:40] <ilu> .. /bin/ ?
[11:41] <rec0m> ilu: I usually install misc apps under /usr/local/
[11:41] <KI4IKL> samiam, where the hell is my computer on linux???
[11:41] <clea> I have a nForce4 board with spdif optical out that works well with 2.0 but it dosen't want to work with surround. is there any settings to fix this?
[11:41] <badkitty> bbl.. reinstalling EVERYTHING
 k
[11:41] <rec0m> ilu: just do something like /usr/local/real
[11:41] <IndyGunFreak> sounds like badkitty has had some issues.
[11:42] <Lucretia> anybody running an ati card via fglrx here?
[11:42] <mwe> IndyGunFreak: appearently ;)
[11:42] <samwize> KI4IKL: oh damn, i didnt know you were using linux...
[11:42] <samwize> :(
 permission denied
[11:42] <ozzman> Hello, i have a readonly file on my desktop that i want to remove of relocate how do i do so?
[11:42] <rec0m> ilu: it's under /usr, so you gotta use sudo before your commands
 i dont know how to sudo that because it was in the middle of the installation process
[11:43] <mwe> ilu: initiate it with sudo
[11:43] <ilu> omg now i did that and it complaints there is no such directory
[11:43] <mwe> ilu: you can't change to root after it's started
[11:44] <mwe> ilu: just /usr/local or sudo mkdir /usr/local/real first
[11:44] <mwe> ilu: or better yet install to /opt then create a symlink
[11:44] <bluey> ozzman: Is your user the owner of the file? If so change it's permissions on the file properties dialog to read write.
[11:45] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: but i rarely use /me, so you just caught jme in a moment i guess...lol
[11:45] <ozzman> bluey: owner is root
[11:46] <IndyGunFreak> !sli
[11:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sli - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:46] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[11:46] <bluey> ozzman: how did it end there?
[11:46] <bizinichi> I'll soon find out
[11:46] <clea> is there anyone that has got nforce4 optical spdif to work with surround?
[11:47] <bluey> ozzman: is it important or you just want to get rid of it?
[11:47] <ozzman> i was installing plug-ins for firefox (i am using X86_64)
 anyway that did not work but it did create a new folder 'real' with alot of files in it...
[11:47] <dbft> hey, i've had my sd card working before, but now when i try to mount it (by going to Computer) it says it cannot mount
[11:47] <ilu> Bin     common  install.log  LICENSE  plugins   README    realplay.bak  share
[11:47] <ilu> codecs  doc     lib          mozilla  postinst  realplay  realplay.bin
[11:47] <dbft> any idea why? :S
[11:47] <rec0m> ilu: if you still have problem just ctrl+c outta that installation and open a command prompt and install it with sudo apt-get install realplayer
[11:47] <mwe> ilu: what didn't work?
[11:47] <rec0m> ilu: I think it's in the repos
[11:48] <ilu> apt-get does not seem to work for realplayer. it claims there is not package for it
[11:48] <mwe> ilu: hell if it's in the repos remove the crap it left and install from there instead
[11:49] <TaJMoX> ilu realplay not realplayer
[11:49] <bluey> ozzman: you can delete it with $ sudo rm ~/Desktop/file
[11:49] <rec0m> ilu: oh yeah it's realplay, good call Tajmox
[11:49] <rec0m> ilu: sudo apt-get install realplay

[11:51] <aliverius> can someone explain me or direct me to info, regarding using an update-cd during installation?
[11:51] <aliverius> how do i make one
[11:51] <aliverius> ?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> aliverius, What are you trying to do?
[11:51] <ilu> god damn its hard to install if it does not work with apt-get or in synaptic
[11:51] <stefg> ilu: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28RealPlayer_10.29
[11:52] <aliverius> i have an unsupported ethernet card (agere 131x)
[11:52] <mwe> ilu: it seems to have installed
[11:52] <TaJMoX> ilu - it will become easy with time - for me its easy to install tgz files
[11:52] <aliverius> and i wanted to load the module during installation
[11:52] <mwe> ilu: where did you install it?
[11:52] <munckfish> Hi, does anyone know what improvements are being made to network-manager integration in Gutsy?
[11:52] <Jack_Sparrow> aliverius: Not that hard, I copy my var/cache/apt/archive to a cd after every major update, you should be able to drop it in after an install and have synaptic see it or copy it back to that folder
 well it seems it only extracted alot of files no installation
[11:52] <Jordan_U> munckfish, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy
[11:53] <ozzman> bluey: i'm getting command not found
[11:53] <mwe> ilu: where did you tell it to install?
[11:53] <munckfish> Jordan_U: ok, will ask there, thx
[11:53] <Jordan_U> munckfish, np
 /usr/local/real
[11:53] <ilu> i mkdir that first
[11:53] <Jack_Sparrow> aliverius: Sorry, was thinking something different than what you want to do
[11:53] <b0ha> how do i mount .img file
[11:54] <b0ha> mount <filename> ?
[11:54] <mwe> ilu: so ls /usr/local/real?
[11:54] <mwe> ilu: is realplay there?
[11:54] <ilu> i have this fiesty fawn btw
[11:54] <ilu> nope its not because it did not get access to the folder i created
[11:54] <mwe> ilu: why?
[11:54] <aliverius> Jack_Sparrow, at least you tought me something so thx for that ;)
[11:54] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[11:55] <Jack_Sparrow> aliverius: I hate redownloading the same thing twice
[11:55] <Justi1> how do I erase a rewriteable cd?
[11:55] <rec0m> ilu mwe: I found the problem, the .bin installer file gotta be executed with sudo first
[11:55] <mwe> rec0m: yes
[11:55] <rec0m> use sudo ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[11:55] <mwe> yeah normal users don't have access to write to /usr/local
[11:56] <mwe> thus sudo is needed
[11:56] <aliverius> Jack_Sparrow, my problem is i want it to work during the installation, to get the updates automatically
[11:56] <mwe> well good night all
[11:56] <cntrlx> red sparowes w00
[11:56] <aliverius> but i guess i can live without doing that
[11:56] <aliverius> i will download the source for the driver
[11:56] <Jack_Sparrow> aliverius: I think you are going to have to finish the install then make your change..
[11:56] <aliverius> in windows
[11:57] <aliverius> then compile it in my new linux
[11:57] <aliverius> etc etc
[11:57] <Jack_Sparrow> aliverius: DOnt be a stranger, everyone is here to help and learn
[11:57] <bluey> ozzman: where are you running the command Terminal or 'Run command...'/Alt+F2?
[11:58] <rec0m> anyone know if madwifi is down or something? can't update svn
[11:58] <Jordan_U> aliverius, I think that if you are connected to the net when you install it automatically downloads updates
 thanx mate your solution was the one that worked
[11:58] <ilu> :D
[11:58] <cerden> i need to join in ubuntu ita
[11:58] <rec0m> ilu: np glad could be of help
[11:58] <Justi1> how do I erase a rewriteable cd?
[11:58] <Jordan_U> aliverius, It certainly will if you use the netinstall CD
[11:58] <ilu> i guess its the same on the google earth bin
[11:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Jordan_U: It seems his problem is no drivers for his network hardware...
[11:59] <rec0m> google earth installs directly to your home folder so probably don't need sudo for that one
[11:59] <ozzman> through accessories
[11:59] <skulrid> hi
[12:00] <ozzman> bluey: Through accessories
[12:00] <Justi1> how do I erase a rewriteable cd?
[12:00] <skulrid> ppl back in windows I got used to a high resolution, but why does ubuntu keep me stuck to a resolution of about 600*800 ??
