[12:02] <Stormx2> M3t0r: sda?
[12:02] <M3t0r> no
[12:03] <vb> clever: I should write a much better tutorial on this than is currently available. :p
[12:03] <Drk_Gu1> M3t0r, to see all the HD's you have, type fstab-l
[12:04] <_joey> what does "alternate" stand for in image name?
[12:04] <Brady> attempting to install CPU Temperature monitor according to their FAQ page http://computertemp.berlios.de/help.php halts at -$Make,
[12:04] <Brady> returns -make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[12:04] <Stormx2> Brady: ./configure
[12:04] <Stormx2> ?
[12:05] <Zambezi> I completely lost it now. What is the name of Ubuntu license?
[12:05] <M3t0r> when i do this there only comes: >
[12:05] <PriceChild> Zambezi, ubuntu has many licenses
[12:05] <PriceChild> Zambezi, parts are gpl, apache2, etc. etc.
[12:05] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, there is no specifiic Ubuntu license.
[12:05] <Zambezi> PriceChild, I mean the general.
[12:06] <scotty> has anyone been able to get albatross18 to work in linux???
[12:06] <PriceChild> Zambezi, there is no general
[12:06] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, but you have to be given the same rights when you get the CD
[12:06] <Zambezi> PriceChild, Packages in general then.
[12:06] <PriceChild> Zambezi, they all have different licenses
[12:06] <_joey> anyone?
[12:06] <Brady> Stormx2: ./configure tells me im pissing a package- pygtk-2.0. however, i am unable to apt-install pygtk-2.0- no such package exists
[12:06] <_joey> which image should I download?
[12:07] <SlimeyPete> zambezi: GPL2 is the most common. But many packages use non-GPL licenses.
[12:07] <_joey> the dvd or the alternate?
[12:07] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, canonical cannot put any further restrictions on the exercise of your rights herein
[12:07] <Stormx2> Brady: it won't be called exactly that, and you'll need a -dev package.
[12:07] <_joey> I don't need all the software on a dvd; it gets outdated quickly
[12:07] <Zambezi> PriceChild, There's a special I'm looking for, but I think SlimeyPete named it.
[12:07] <Stormx2> _joey: Why not just the normal one?
[12:07] <_joey> what's normal?
[12:08] <Stormx2> The CD which isn't alternative/dvd?
[12:08] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, GPLV2? ok. i'll look.
[12:08] <_joey> there aren't others
[12:08] <crunck> Is there any place where the old APT packages for Horay are available? (I'm trying to update my old linux computer with the Warty version trough apt)
[12:08] <Zambezi> kbrooks_, Not sure now. It's not that important. I'm just doing an example on a database.
[12:08] <PriceChild> Zambezi, ubuntu is made of lots of independent bits of software, with independent licenses
[12:08] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/info/GPLv2.html
[12:08] <d2812> What software can I use to extract text from an SWF?  swfstrings doesnt seem to be working for me.
[12:09] <_joey> Stormx2 find the "normal" one in here: http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/
[12:09] <respider> how do I disable asking password in single mode? No one has local access to the machine
[12:09] <_joey> for duo core processor
[12:09] <strtok> respider: don't be silly
[12:09] <strtok> :P
[12:10] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, i was talking about GPLv2 section 6 which says "You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein."
[12:10] <respider> how do I do that, I know I shouldnt
[12:10] <Brady> Stormx2: I need pygtk-*.*, wher can I find a current package name to apt-get?
[12:10] <kbrooks_> Zambezi, among other things
[12:11] <Stormx2> Brady: Can't you just run a search in synaptic?
[12:11] <_joey> anyone? :)
[12:11] <Brady> Stormx2: trying that now
[12:11] <skrypt> How do I rename hard drives?
[12:11] <skrypt> ie. icons on the desktop?
[12:11] <_joey> which "normal" dvd should I download? The name of the image, please :)
[12:12] <Stormx2> _joey: http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/releases/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[12:12] <aaron> skrypt: right click?
[12:12] <Zambezi> kbrooks_, I just erase the section and take another example.
[12:12] <teethdood> is there a media center app that would list all movie files that I have in a nice ready to play fashion?
[12:12] <Stormx2> skrypt: You'd need to change the mountpoint.
[12:12] <_joey> Stormx2 the desktop is the live cd
[12:12] <skrypt> Which file is that? I forget.
[12:12] <Stormx2> _joey: Yep.
[12:12] <Luke> In sreen, my backspace doesn't work. I have to use ctrl+h. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[12:12] <Stormx2> _joey: What were you hoping for?
[12:13] <saxonjf> When I try to remove Gaim from using Synaptic, it asks to remove "nautilus-sendto" and "ubuntu" desktop, also... that doesn't sound good
[12:13] <_joey> i don't need it; I need the installation cd
[12:13] <aaron> saxonjf: that's ok.
[12:13] <Stormx2> The live cd is the installation cd o.O
[12:13] <fonzai> Brady: apt-cache search pygtk should also do the trick
[12:13] <_joey> hmm
[12:13] <saxonjf> aaron: are you sure?
[12:13] <bobbob1016> skrypt, open a terminal, and type "sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab-backup" then do "sudo gedit /etc/fstab"
[12:13] <aaron> saxonjf: yes.
[12:13] <_joey> strange
[12:13] <Stormx2> _joey: Why strange?
[12:14] <_joey> because, usually installation cd and live cd are used for different purposes
[12:14] <bobbob1016> skrypt, wait
[12:14] <bobbob1016> skrypt, that won't help, it won't hurt though, so just close the window
[12:14] <Stormx2> _joey: Well, ubuntu has been using the live cd as the prefered installation method for over a year now :D
[12:14] <_joey> okay
[12:14] <Stormx2> _joey: I think gentoo does the same.
[12:14] <Stormx2> Well, can do.
[12:14] <_joey> I'd read the installation manual then
[12:14] <matkix> Anyone willing to help with figuring out a wifi and vid card driver issue?
[12:15] <saxonjf> I looked "ubuntu-desktop" up and I think that is almost the last thing I'd ever want to uninstall
[12:15] <matkix> Anyone willing to help with figuring out a wifi and vid card driver issue?
[12:16] <aaron> saxonjf: it just wants to remove a part of it. not all of it. i see it quite often.
[12:16] <bobbob1016> skrypt, wait again, sorry, I haven't done this in a while, that window does help, if you already did "sudo cp..." just do "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" and I think you can rename them in there, look for the one you want to rename, if you want to rename it from HD to HDD for example, look for /media/HD in the list, next to the UID, then change it to what you want to name it, that should do it
[12:16] <Luke> In sreen, my backspace doesn't work. I have to use ctrl+h. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[12:17] <aaron> skrypt: read this. http://www.debuntu.org/device-partition-labeling
[12:18] <serenity> skrypt you need to make the directory aswell
[12:18] <EADG> Luke: check your key bindings in /etc/screenrc
[12:18] <skrypt> lol ok
[12:18] <skrypt> thanks guys :)
[12:18] <bobbob1016> serenity, I wasn't sure on that, I thought it would auto-create it.  I wasn't sure what permissions it would need, so I didn't want him to sudo it
[12:19] <mhz`> hmm,
[12:19] <crunck> I ask again if someone new can help: Is there any place where the old APT packages for Horay are available? (I'm trying to update my old linux computer with the Warty version trough apt)
[12:19] <serenity> yeah have to sudo mkdir x
[12:19] <matkix_> Anyone know anything about wireless cards? Ive red the docs, and am unable to get this thing to work!
[12:19] <Luke> EADG: nothin that I can tell
[12:19] <mhz`> matkix, what kinda wireless card?
[12:19] <aaron> matkix: good luck.
[12:19] <matkix_> mhz`, I don't know... thats part of the problem. Its built in.
[12:19] <jstarcher> how can I use mv to move only files that were modified today?
[12:20] <bobbob1016> serenity, sudo mkdir /media/x right?
[12:20] <mhz`> ahhh, can you boot windows?
[12:20] <skrypt> Actually... this is all too confusing. i've done it before it and it was as simple as editing a single file.
[12:20] <CientificoLoco> is there some game when I cook?
[12:20] <mhz`> shit, what was that command...lspci
[12:20] <matkix_> mhz`,  yes I sure can
[12:20] <mhz`> i think, hang on
[12:20] <matkix_> It won't show it.
[12:20] <John`> for this script: DISPLAY=:0 mplayer -vo gl -ao alsa $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_FILE_PATHS , how do I make it so that it read file names with space in between?
[12:20] <matkix_> The ubuntu install has no idea what it is...
[12:20] <mhz`> that's not good
[12:20] <mhz`> does it tell you in windows?
[12:20] <skrypt> bobbob1016: thanks. you got it.
[12:20] <matkix_> It can however see wireless networks... but cannot connect to them.
[12:21] <sledgeas> hello
[12:21] <matkix_> Well I have no idea how to tell... ipconfig all ?
[12:21] <mhz`> in your device manager
[12:21] <mhz`> it should list it
[12:21] <serenity> bobbob1016: there is a fashion for /windows recently.. saves typing. i think media is meant for fstab and mnt for temp

[12:22] <CientificoLoco> http://www.ubuntugames.org/ somebody knows if this site was redirecctioned?
[12:22] <vb> clever: right, but no session/window manager starts. :p
[12:22] <bobbob1016> serenity, true, I think I did that too, forgot about it though
[12:22] <matkix_> I have access to my windows partition and might be able to see what driver they have there.... should I do that?
[12:22] <clever> lol
[12:22] <vb> clever: just have to fix this.. hehe
[12:22] <clever> vb: check the man page for vncserver and Xvnc
[12:22] <EADG> Luke: I checked my screenrc, i don't see anything for backspace... not sure what else you can try besides re-installing.
[12:22] <clever> vncserver is a script to run Xvnc
[12:22] <bobbob1016> serenity, now that I think about it, I have boot, home, and root on different partitions, so you were right
[12:22] <EADG> Luke: #screen might have more info.

Could anyone help me
[12:22] <serenity> bobbob1016:  i like the way you can move the /home to it's own partition on linux after install without breaking anything, even change drives
[12:23] <Luke> EADG: i'm trying purging and reisntalling now. I've found and reported bugs on this on LP as well
[12:23] <Luke> EADG: other peopel have been ahving this problem for a year
[12:23] <matkix_> mhz`,  should I look at the drivers for windows see if they give away any of it?
[12:23] <Luke> EADG: #screen is a good diea - thanks
[12:23] <beef> pushpop, check for zombie processes? ps -el | grep 'Z'
[12:23] <scoobydoo28139> where do i get the corect drivers for my new card?
[12:23] <mhz`> matkix at least look for the name/model #
[12:23] <mhz`> from there you can search for ubuntu support
[12:23] <pushpop> beef: ok
[12:23] <matkix_> mhz`,  No luck its a exe file...
[12:24] <bobbob1016> serenity, I didn't know you could do that, makes sense though, I did it for a distro independent home directory, so I can reinstall, or install a different distro
[12:24] <EADG> Luke: what version of screen are you using? I have 4.00.02 loaded.

[12:25] <Luke> EADG: reinstalling didnt help =/

[12:43] <LucianSolaris> HELP does anyone have a clue why i have DRI when X starts the first time, but after restarting X i lose DRI (glxinfo | grep rendering - goes from Yes to No)
[12:43] <LucianSolaris> HELP it's a radeon
[12:43] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: Are you actually running solaris?
[12:43] <LucianSolaris> Stormx2: no
[12:43] <crashanddie> hey guys, me again
[12:43] <pushpop> serenity ?
[12:43] <fevel> hello
[12:43] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: System > Administration > Restricted Drivers
[12:43] <LucianSolaris> Stormx2: Kubuntu Feisty
[12:43] <Stormx2> crashanddie: uh oh!
[12:43] <fevel> is there a way I could force a drive that wont umount
[12:44] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: Okay. restricted-manager from a terminal?
[12:44] <Stormx2> fevel: Add -l to the umount command?
[12:44] <LucianSolaris> stormx2: nope (it's the open source driver)
[12:44] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: There aren't any open source 3d radeon drivers
[12:45] <LucianSolaris> i have my xorg set to radeon, not fglrx
[12:45] <LucianSolaris> and it runs great
[12:45] <crashanddie> We have a broadcom 4306 wifi card, it looks as if it is working all right, but it doesn't see any network ?
[12:45] <serenity> pushpop the way i fixed mine was compile the latest kernel, because it was hogging my CPU, but it's quiet big if you haven't done it before
[12:45] <LucianSolaris> stormx2, then how does radeon render things so well (not fglrx) when in edgy it sucked
[12:45] <pushpop> serenity my cpu usage is at 0 pretty much
[12:46] <LucianSolaris> stormx2 fglrx won't work on my 9000 igp
[12:46] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: The closed source driver gives you hardware 3d rendering. The FOSS driver won't get you that. Where is the complication?
[12:46] <matkix> Ight, so anyone know how to get a Ralink  RT2571WF to work on ubuntu?
[12:46] <gheeg> any sound experts in the house?  stuck with my audigy2...
[12:47] <Stormx2> !sound | gheeg
[12:47] <ubotu> gheeg: 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
[12:47] <LucianSolaris> stormx2, i don't have the proprietary driver installed, i have the oss one.  the proprietary driver fails to work with my radeon mobility 9000 igp in my laptop
[12:47] <LucianSolaris> stormx2, either all of the sudden the non-working driver works in feisty, or someone fixed my radeon driver
[12:47] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: Have you tried installing it using restricted-manager?
[12:48] <serenity> pushpop is it every single program .. we need to narrow it down
[12:48] <Tama00> why does nvidia-xconfig conflict with nvidia-glx ??
[12:48] <LucianSolaris> hold on, is the open source driver 'ati' or 'radeon'?
[12:48] <LucianSolaris> stormx2
[12:48] <gheeg> ubotu alsa is selected.  thanks for the pages, i think i've gone through them before.  will check now...
[12:48] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: I have no idea >.<
[12:48] <Tama00> does anyone see that as a problem lol
[12:49] <matkix> So... anyone willing to help I found that my wifi card is a  RT2571WF, so ideas on how and where to get a working driver?
[12:49] <Pie-rate> WTF. my filesystem keeps getting remounted as readonly. why is it doing this?
[12:49] <LucianSolaris> stormx2, anyway, what causes this (or what's a remedy for): when I start my system up from boot, i have direct rendering.  if i restart X, i don't have direct rendering.  why (and how to fix)?
[12:49] <Pie-rate> it happens after a few minutes running
[12:49] <matkix> !wireless
[12:49] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:50] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: Poor driver, I guess. How are you restarting X?
[12:50] <LucianSolaris> stormx2: all forms of restart (ctrl+alt+bksp, logout, logout and restart x in kdm, etc)
[12:51] <OuZo> has anyone successfully installed freenet? thanks
[12:51] <Tama00> lol so you guys all think its normal that nvidia-xconfig conflicts with nvidia-glx hhaha
[12:51] <pixelPOET> Tama00: sure... =] 
[12:51] <runa> hi can sb help me to configure the touchpad this is my xonf.org : http://pastebin.com/m5c41d928
[12:51] <Stormx2> Tama00: Why not?
[12:52] <matkix> If my wifi card is not working should I install ubuntu 32 bit not 64?
[12:52] <EADG> matkix: Pretty quiet in here atm, try a search at www.ubuntu-forums.org
[12:52] <Tama00> actually now i get it
[12:52] <LucianSolaris> stormx2 should I kill kdm, rmmod drm, and sudo kdm?
[12:52] <Tama00> nvidia-xconfig is out of date and is now included in nvidia-glx already
[12:52] <Stormx2> LucianSolaris: I don't know.
[12:52] <Tama00> what i was after was nvidia-settings
[12:52] <pixelPOET> Tama00: We knew you would.
[12:52] <LucianSolaris> fine...
[12:52] <LucianSolaris> bye
[12:52] <matkix> EADG, So do you think this would resolve it self if I went to 32 bit?
[12:52] <gheeg> thanks again ubotu, finally my audigy2 card is listed as 0 (though i'd set it as default before).  rebooting now
[12:53] <server_> Hi can anybody help me with configuration of xorg.conf with nVidia TV-OUT to an HDTV via component cables and custom modelines?
[12:53] <Tama00> wtf nvidia-settings conflicts with nvidia-glx too
[12:53] <Tama00> damn im so confused now
[12:53] <serenity> Tama00 make sure u ren nvidia-setting with sudo so you can save to xorg.conf file
[12:53] <serenity> run
[12:53] <EADG> matkix: hmm, good question... easy way to check is boot from 32b live cd and see if the card works.
[12:54] <matkix> hahah
[12:54] <matkix> easy eh?
[12:54] <Tama00> okay so nvidia-settings is included as well..
[12:54] <matkix> Takes a bit of a dl
[12:54] <matkix> kk
[12:54] <matkix> will do
[12:54] <pixelPOET> laggg
[12:54] <eifzon> how do i change password of my normal user, not root
[12:54] <EADG> matkix: check the forums also.
[12:54] <serenity> i use nvidia-settings with the drivers from nvidia web site
[12:54] <serenity> like a control pannel for resolutions and dual monitors
[12:55] <Stormx2> Tama00: What exactly are you trying to do here?
[12:55] <pixelPOET> eifzon: passwd 'username'
[12:55] <Tama00> Stormx2, dont worry... i just wanted the gui thing for nvidia settings and its already included
[12:55] <server_> How do you configure xorg.conf for TV-OUT with component cables and a custom modeline / resolution?
[12:56] <b0ef> ehlo
[12:56] <b0ef> trying to help out a friend with an ubuntu dapper box; is apt-get and aptitude not available in recovery mode?
[12:57] <eifzon> Why do i get this error when i am trying to install openoffice? E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[12:57] <Tama00> i got a history question, is X called X because of Xerox?
[12:58] <serenity> it came out of MIT i think?
[12:58] <SlimeyPete> eifzon: look further up the screen, see if there were any previous errors
[12:58] <Tama00> hmm
[12:59] <serenity> jordan_ do you have nvidia?
[12:59] <Whosits> I'm getting an error at login telling me that there is no space left on the device - I'm certain that the space exists. I had a similar error last night when compiling a program and it tried to use the /tmp/ directory for some automatically generated files - but that error was only halting compilation, not general system usage. Running the compiler as root fixed the issue - so I'm thinking that I may just need to adjust permissions on
[12:59] <Whosits> I'm on 7.04 FF
[01:00] <pushpop> serenity: Yes, its every program
[01:00] <vandle> hey, does anyone here have a bcm43xx wireless card?
[01:00] <Stormx2> Whosits: The device in question... your /?
[01:00] <vandle> I can see wireless networks and connect to them, but for some reason I cannot view sites on the web
[01:01] <Stormx2> Tama00: No, it isn't. I think it's called X because a previous windowing system was called W, or something
[01:01] <Whosits> I'm actually not entirely sure. I don't remember it specifying _what_ device.
[01:01] <vandle> I can't see my own wireless network, but I can view others
[01:01] <Whosits> I'm relatively certain it didn't clearly specify that. I would've copied it, but I had to login using my LiveCD
[01:01] <mabious> howdy i have problems heh
[01:01] <Tama00> Stormx2, so the next windows system will be called y :D
[01:02] <optimusrex> Hi. Can anyone tell me how to run adept as root or through kdesu or sudo programs to be able to perform changes and installations?
[01:02] <serenity> Whosits tmp permission should be sudo chmod 1777 .tmp
[01:02] <serenity> Whosits sorry i mean slash not dot  tmp permission should be sudo chmod 1777 /tmp
[01:02] <jrib> optimusrex: adept should run with proper privileges when you click on the icon in the menu
[01:02] <Stormx2> Tama00: Not really, X is pretty well established. Note that you're not actually using X, you're using X.org, which is a fork of X.
[01:02] <mabious> so my buddy tells me to install ubuntu so i boot up the disk and click install but the Guided Resize option is giving me an error
[01:03] <Whosits> okay, so running that in a terminal session should upgrade my account's permissions?
[01:03] <serenity> Whosits that will make /tmp wrxwrxwrx for all users
[01:03] <Whosits> ah, very good
[01:03] <Tama00> Stormx2, isnt it a fork of X11
[01:03] <serenity> Whosits happened to me the other day
[01:03] <pushpop> serenity any other ideas for me = )
[01:03] <pushpop> hahah
[01:03] <skollie> mabious: what is the error?
[01:03] <mabious> one sec lemmie look
[01:04] <Whosits> I'll try that.  Thank you.
[01:04] <optimusrex> jrib, I clicked the icon but it starts up and says that I need special admin priveleges to perform installations, etc
[01:04] <Whosits> I'll be back one way or another to let you know how it turned out.
[01:04] <serenity> Whosits you can check permissions running    ls -al
[01:04] <Stormx2> Tama00: Uhg, whatever... I forget
[01:04] <jrib> optimusrex: what is the output of this command in the terminal:  groups
[01:04] <Tama00> :P
[01:04] <skollie> optimusrex: does it ask you for your password?
[01:05] <Tama00> Stormx2, but maybe it was called W because of Xerox..
[01:05] <godofredo> How Can I Install A Basic tar.gz? (warsow) - - -
[01:05] <jrib> godofredo: you try to avoid it.  What do you want to install?
[01:05] <serenity> pushpop sorry we need to narrow down the problem.. is it _every_ program?
[01:05] <godofredo> jrib, warsow.net
[01:05] <godofredo> jrib, game :)
[01:06] <optimusrex> when I start it up it shows a dialogue box that gives the message but there is no request for a password just an ok button
[01:06] <Stormx2> Tama00: Actually, there wasn't a W. I'm thinking of B/C. Anyway, why would it be because of Xerox?
[01:06] <jrgotti> godofredo: tar -zxvf 'program' / cd 'program'/ ./configure / sudo make / sudo make install
[01:06] <jrib> godofredo: ah, well you'll either have to compile it or just copy over a binary.  If you need to compile, see ubotu's message:
[01:06] <eifzon> SlimeyPete: ok
[01:06] <jrib> !compile > godofredo
[01:06] <LeoStewart> Does anyone know how to click once to select all text in the address bar in Firefox?
[01:06] <Torahteen> Hey, is it possible to install xubuntu over ubuntu?
[01:06] <Torahteen> Hmm... that didn't sound right
[01:06] <Tama00> Stormx2, because Xerox the now photocoping company was the first place they invented the GUI
[01:06] <PurpZeY> Torahteen: Yes. it is.
[01:06] <Torahteen> I have ubuntu, with GNOME on a rather slow computer
[01:07] <jrib> Torahteen: you can install xubuntu-desktop and have both ubuntu and xubuntu
[01:07] <Torahteen> And would rather have xfce
[01:07] <rolfen> Torahteen: you can modify your ubuntu install so that it becomes virtually xubuntu
[01:07] <PurpZeY> Torahteen: They are exactly the same. Xubuntu just has xfe instead...so just install the package and you're good to go
[01:07] <eifzon> SlimeyPete: Updating fontconfig cache...
[01:07] <mabious> waiting for error to come up the resizing partition is
[01:07] <eifzon> /usr/share/fonts: failed to write cache
[01:07] <eifzon> /usr/share/fonts/X11: failed to write cac
[01:07] <eifzon> SlimeyPete: much more then that
[01:07] <Tama00> Stormx2, thats right it was Apple or Microsoft
[01:07] <mabious> hmm ok i think im an idiot
[01:07] <mabious> might be working now lol
[01:07] <Torahteen> So just install xfce?
[01:07] <serenity> LeoStewart I do triple click
[01:07] <Sharpshooter> in upstart how do i do init 2
[01:07] <jrib> Torahteen: "xubuntu-desktop" is the package you want
[01:07] <Torahteen> Ok
[01:07] <Torahteen> ty
[01:07] <Torahteen> :D
[01:07] <rolfen> Torahteen: that's what i did... you just install xfce from synaptic, make it the default window manager, and changer the login screen graphics
[01:07] <LeoStewart> But is there anyway of only have to click once to select the text like in Windows?
[01:08] <jrib> Torahteen: 2 is the default runlevel and runlevels 2-5 are identical by default
[01:08] <Torahteen> Umm... jrib, I think you're talking to someone else
[01:08] <jrib> Torahteen: indeed, sorry :)
[01:08] <Torahteen> XD NP :P
[01:08] <jrib> Sharpshooter: 2 is the default runlevel and runlevels 2-5 are identical by default
[01:09] <mabious> wow an indicator on the slider would help a ton
[01:09] <Sharpshooter> how do i get in a single user runlevel on a running box w/o restarting
[01:09] <jrib> Sharpshooter: why?
[01:09] <Stormx2> Tama00: The GUI is an evolutionary thing. No one "invented" it.
[01:09] <Sharpshooter> to restart most of my services.
[01:09] <optimusrex> jrib, I don't know if I answered your question but I only get a single dialogue box without a request for a password
[01:09] <Sharpshooter> dont want to reboot
[01:09] <rolfen> Sharpshooter: i think it's telinit 1
[01:09] <jrib> optimusrex: what is the output of this command in the terminal:  groups
[01:09] <Sharpshooter> k
[01:10] <Tama00> Stormx2, nar actually Xerox did :P and microsoft and apple both claimed they did and sued each other for ages over it then they finally discovered that they both copied xerox (yes they actualyl went there and saw it from xerox) and xerox said they didnt want to sue anyone over it
[01:11] <optimusrex> Jrib, the command just returns me to the root where I started
[01:11] <bluefox83> ok..i can only get the wobbly windows and the window decorator i want to work in compiz..anyone know why?
[01:12] <bluefox83> the water affects, the cube...nothing seems to work
[01:12] <Stormx2> Tama00: That is a very absolutist view. As I previously said, no one invented the GUI we know today. It was an evolution involving many companies/individuals.
[01:12] <serenity> ok LeoStewart are you still there?
[01:12] <killaz> I'm thinking about buying a new gfx card. Can I just change the card and ubuntu will recognize that the old card has been replaced?
[01:12] <Stormx2> Tama00: It's like asking who invented the internet. The people who made TCP/IP? HTTP? Copper cable?
[01:13] <jrib> optimusrex: ok, if there is no output, that means you are not in any groups.  Most importantly, you are not in the "admin" group, which gives you the ability to use sudo.  You should restart, choose "recovery mode" from the grub menu and then issue this command: adduser YOUR_USERNAME admin  .  After that, reboot and sudo should work.  Then add yourself to any other groups you want
[01:13] <killaz> should I run something to reconfigure the hardware?
[01:13] <Tama00> Stormx2, yeah but who came up with the idea for the internet was the inventor
[01:14] <optimusrex> Thanks jrib. I will try that right now.
[01:14] <gordonjcp> Stormx2: there was a windowing system called W
[01:14] <gordonjcp> Stormx2: I can't remember who did it though, but it was very very very very early on
[01:14] <Stormx2> Tama00: Again, an over simplification. Who came up with the idea that two transistors can interact? Who came up with the idea of connecting one computer to another? The idea of the HTTP protocol etc.
[01:15] <Stormx2> gordonjcp: Yeah. Early 80s I think? I was right woot! :D

[01:15] <Tinned_Tuna> that's the polite way of saying

[01:15] <chris__> why do i see a purple line where my video should be?

[01:16] <PurpZeY> chris__: What kind of video?
[01:16] <dissection> Hello, anyone here uses fs-driver to access your ext3 partitions in Windows XP? Or is there something better that you'd suggest? It says it has read/write access but I need to find out if it can disable write access, before I install it.
[01:16] <chris__> if i move it it works..., then if i move it again it stops..., all kinds...., and could it be beryl?
[01:16] <PurpZeY> dissection: NTFS read only allows read...Might be a better way to go
[01:17] <PurpZeY> chris__: Are you using VLC?
[01:17] <chris__> totem
[01:17] <rolfen> dissection: the default driver that is bundled with ubuntu supports read access (afaik). if you want write access you can install ntfs3g
[01:17] <chris__> vlc locks up my computer
[01:17] <pushpop> Hello All, I have an issue with my Ubuntu machine I just recently installed it.  I loaded my desktop with the desired applications I want to use, then I rebooted... since reboot my system runs like crap it takes several seconds for an app to launch, it is a beefy system with 4gb of memory and a dual core.  Could anyone offer me assistance = )
[01:17] <dissection> PurpZeY, rolfen: No, I mean accessing ext3 in Windows, not NTFS on Linux.
[01:17] <PurpZeY> chris__: What you need to do is change the video output type to x11. It is caused by beryl, but that will fix it. I'm not sure if this can be done in totem...I don't know...I did it in VLC for the same problem.
[01:17] <kefas_> Hello someone can help me I want to share the Internet with the computer of my sister buy a router but not since(as,like) my PC forms it it(he,she) has ubuntu and that of my sister cherry trees

[01:18] <Stormx2> pushpop: open up gnome-system-monitor - see what's killing your CPU.
[01:18] <chris__> how do i do it in vlc?
[01:18] <pushpop> Stormx2: cpu is around 0% ysage
[01:18] <darkgarage> Hello, first time in here.  Got a question about video drivers.  Anyone know where I can download a pre-compiled driver for the Intel 855 graphics adapter?
[01:18] <bruenig> dissection, fs-driver.org
[01:18] <dissection> bruenig: Yes thats what I'm talking about. But can it disable write access?
[01:18] <bruenig> dissection, you would need to consult that or ask in ##windows
[01:19] <PurpZeY> chris__: Preferences --> Turn on advanced options --> It will be there..Change to x11
[01:19] <dissection> Okay, I'm there ;] 
[01:19] <PurpZeY> chris__: under video.
[01:19] <chris__> thanks!!!

[01:23] <PurpZeY> chris__: Not sure where to take you from there...That solution did wonders for me.
[01:23] <serenity> Agiofws i wuould use xubuntu with the xfce desktop or even flusxbox
[01:23] <trickwire> though maybe, I should add that the problem lays with the driver of the card ? I mean, when I do a iwlist scanning, it says no results, but I have a computer next to mine which is connected to wifi, and if I'm under Windows it runs fine !
[01:23] <chris__> PurpZeY, thanks anyways, anyone know if gutsy will ship with cnr?
[01:24] <serenity> Agiofws you would have to install textmode from alternatecd LiveCD need more ram
[01:24] <hypertyper> can anyone give me newbish instructions on how to play a dvd with my new ubuntu 7.04 desktop install?
[01:24] <trickwire> so, easy answer: use ndiswrapper, but I just wanted to know if there was an easy fix
[01:24] <lerc__> uh oh.  getting assertion errors on add/rmove applications.

[01:26] <PurpZeY> nigglet: It should come up when you right click on nm-applet
[01:26] <bruenig> chris__, this is your best shot, people are too busy writing documentation on their crappy blogs in attempts to get hits
[01:26] <andrew____> Hi

[01:26] <chris__> can i tell the wifi manager witch network to connect to first (if i have 2 networks in my area and sometimes mine goes down....)
[01:26] <andrew____> Im having trouble setting up my broadcom wireless device
[01:26] <jrib> chris__: help.ubuntu.com  should take you to all the docs
[01:26] <godofredo> bruenig, have it
[01:26] <bruenig> nigglet, networkmanager, it should be an applet on the panel
[01:26] <PurpZeY> nigglet: nm-applet is the little network manager
[01:26] <gordonjcp> godofredo: yeah, loads
[01:26] <bruenig> godofredo, well you can't get much better than that
[01:27] <PurpZeY> Frets on fire?
[01:27] <gordonjcp> godofredo: didn't you ask that earlier?
[01:27] <Augi> is there any way to make the resolution bigger than 800 x 600?

[01:27] <godofredo> gordonjcp, ideally another fps
[01:27] <andrew____> thanks
[01:27] <bruenig> godofredo, if propaganda is your fix
[01:27] <ant___> there is a factiod just for broadcom
[01:27] <PurpZeY> andrew____: There is a ton of info on BCM wireless on the forums, a ton.
[01:27] <chris__> !info cnr
[01:28] <ant___> i forgot what it was
[01:28] <ubuntu__> Where is the USP forum anyway?
[01:28] <Augi> is there any way to make the resolution bigger than 800 x 600?
[01:28] <ant___> !bcm43xx
[01:28] <gordonjcp> godofredo: presumably it's pretty good, since it's based on the Quake3 engine as I understand it
[01:28] <ubotu> Package cnr does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[01:28] <godofredo> gordonjcp, i think that nexuiz is a little weird though

[01:28] <ant___> ah ha!
[01:28] <gordonjcp> godofredo: RTCW: Enemy Territory is pretty sweet
[01:28] <chris__> on bcm43xx i find ndiswrapper works the best :D
[01:28] <godofredo> gordonjcp, my fav so far
[01:28] <gordonjcp> godofredo: nexuiz *is* weird, tremulous is good
[01:28] <gordonjcp> you need biggish teams for it to work well though
[01:28] <Augi> is there any way to make the resolution bigger than 800 x 600?
[01:28] <andrew____> yeah ive read alot of it
[01:28] <Evan_> Installed windows wireless drivers using ndiswrapper; In network settings, my access point shows up, I can set the WEP key, but when I try to access the wireless, it is not there.
[01:28] <andrew____> when I input the last line or so
[01:29] <andrew____> i get a permission denied
[01:29] <godofredo> gordonjcp, i think that that deathmatch genre is a little weird
[01:29] <gordonjcp> godofredo: you can get Linux native ports of all the UT-based games too
[01:29] <chris__> anyone know why when i use bcm43xx-fwcutter + my firmware it won't work i get really ***** speed and yeah...., but when i use ndiswrapper it works perfect?
[01:29] <PurpZeY> andrew____: Use sudo
[01:29] <godofredo> gordonjcp, sweet
[01:29] <godofredo> gordonjcp, like quake wars

[01:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mod_rewrite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:29] <Greyscale> sigh
[01:29] <coraxx> I dont get eny audio when I try to run movies anyone know what I can do? ( new to linux)
[01:29] <Greyscale> someone know how to install mod rewrite?
[01:29] <PurpZeY> chris__: B/C ndiswrapper is using a better driver...it's really a more specific way to do it
[01:29] <gordonjcp> godofredo: it's a shame that the HL series weren't ported, but they run in Wine

[01:30] <PurpZeY> coraxx: Are you getting sound in other applications?
[01:30] <godofredo> gordonjcp, true :)
[01:30] <gordonjcp> godofredo: I'm still a huge fan of the original Quake
[01:30] <Stormx2> chris__: Who was that for?
[01:30] <chris__> how come in kubuntu my function keys for my music (start, stop, next, back, etc) work, but not in ubuntu

[01:30] <chris__> Stormx2, i was wondering what it would say :)
[01:31] <Stormx2> chris__: They're probably window manager based.
[01:31] <bruenig> chris__, I recommend using xbindkeys and configuring it to run whatever commands you need run with those commands
[01:31] <coraxx> ok thx
[01:31] <bruenig> with those keys*
[01:31] <Stormx2> chris__: oh, and /msg ubotu
[01:31] <godofredo> can anyone tell me if fretsonfire is legal?
[01:31] <chris__> kool
[01:31] <godofredo> sweet game, almost too sweet..
[01:32] <gordonjcp> godofredo: tried sauerbraten?
[01:32] <chris__> fretsonfire??????
[01:32] <godofredo> gordonjcp, seen it, but isn't that whole deathmatch genre?
[01:32] <chris__> lighting real ones on fire???
[01:32] <gordonjcp> godofredo: yeah, kind of ;-)
[01:32] <godofredo> chris__, its like guitar hero but with f1-f4 and enter
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> gordonjcp: what game did you try?
[01:33] <nn-laptop> akos, i fixed this by updateing the system install or update alsa also might help
[01:33] <PurpZeY> godofredo: If you like fretsonfire I'd recommend stepmania
[01:33] <chris__> i don't like guitar hero lol, i cant get the dang notes right.....\
[01:33] <akos> nn-laptop, i just did a dist-upgrade
[01:33] <gordonjcp> IndyGunFreak: all the Quakes, including all the mission packs for Q1 and Q2, RTCW, RTCW:ET which I play quite often, Unreal, UT, UT2003, tremulous, nexuiz, cube, sauerbraten...
[01:33] <chris__> will the next ubuntu have a upgrade tool?
[01:34] <serenity> chris__ try System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> gordonjcp: oh ok.
[01:34] <gordonjcp> chris__: they all do
[01:34] <chris__> not if i run the live cd :P
[01:34] <chris__> it wants to erase meh hd....
[01:34] <gordonjcp> chris__: that's because you don't have a running installation
[01:34] <nn-laptop> akos, have you run alsa-config ?
[01:34] <chris__> i did....
[01:34] <madmax> can anyone here help me with an xorg.conf problem?
[01:35] <akos> uh... i think so... lemme run it again
[01:35] <bruenig> chris__, don't do that gnomes keyboard shortcuts are absolute garbage, it is on the of the reasons I absolutely cannot use gnome, get xbindkeys, and configure it that way

[01:36] <madmax> I'm having a problem getting a 3rd monitor connected to a 2nd video card to operate in feisty.  No matter what I change, based on my research, the best I can do is to get the two monitors attached to the first video card to work
[01:36] <cloud> Does anyone have flash mx or 8 working through wine?
[01:37] <Greyscale> cloud, yeah
[01:37] <Greyscale> it works quite nicely, thanks.

[01:37] <cloud> Really, flash 8 works?
[01:37] <hypertyper> hmm. followed the instructions given by !dvd, but then xine says: "engine failed to start. no demuxer found - stream format not recognised." any clues for a clueless newb?

[01:38] <steve99_> fglX11AllocateManagedSurface: __FGLTexMgrAllocMem failed!! <-- With native and wine game
[01:38] <akos> alsa-base is already the newest version.
[01:38] <akos> nn-laptop,
[01:38] <chris__> can i see if ubuntu has shiped my cd's yet?
[01:38] <Greyscale> steve99_, neither of those will be supported.

[01:39] <pollyo> Hello.. Anyone use rythmbox with an ipod?
[01:39] <cloud> Greyscale, when I tried flash 8 I coulden't open .fla files, has this been fixed?
[01:39] <nn-laptop> humm

[01:39] <steve99_> d
[01:39] <Greyscale> Games under wine isn't ubuntu's deal
[01:39] <jrib> andrew____: try installing "ndiswrapper-utils-1.9" instead of just "ndiswrapper-utils"
[01:39] <bruenig> pushpop, chown
[01:39] <pushpop-> thanks
[01:39] <andrew____> alright thanks

[01:40] <steve99_> i followed the guide where u get the sh from ati's site etc
[01:40] <steve99_> i tried manual too, tried alot of different ways...
[01:40] <madmax> steve99:  you are using ATI binary drivers then?
[01:40] <chris__> how does the edubuntu do the network boot?
[01:40] <steve99_> madmax,  im pretty sure

[01:41] <madmax> steve99:  doesnt matter
[01:41] <elpha> poningru: yes sir!
[01:42] <chris__> on the paid support when it says Free upgrades, does it mean they ship me an upgrade or i have to download it?

[01:42] <steve99_> fglrx

[01:43] <poningru> elpha: in a terminal do a lsusb
[01:43] <cloud> Greyscale, can you create .fla files while running Flash 8 on Ubuntu?
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> elpha: alot of usb cable modems are hard to get working under Linux, what model is your modem?
[01:43] <retour> Hallo all! Is it a way to execute install process from Ubuntu CD without leting it start in Live mode? I have only 128MB of RAM on the machine I want to install it on and I think the only difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu is display manager so I want to save myselve a hassle of downloading whole Xubuntu CD if this option would be posibble.

Well My system starts Ubuntu up to the point it suppose to fill light brown backround with icons and because not enough memory it stops there spinning pontlessly CD. But I can log into consoles and log on as a root (if I know default root pass) and hopefully execute install script (if known) Its just my guess but I think it douable. Besides c'mon ITS LINUX hehe
[01:47] <madmax> I think I've got my xorg.conf file close, but I'm missing something to get the last monitor working and I dont know what, can anyone take a look at my xorg.conf and help me out?
[01:48] <kbrooks_> andrew____, "sudo cat $conffile" works, and runs that. but "sed -e '...' > $confile" does not work because that command is ran as a user.
[01:48] <kbrooks_> andrew____, not as root
[01:48] <nigglet> ok how do i make my 80211 connect to the network without crypt
[01:48] <andrew____> oh so I need sudo cat again?
[01:48] <kbrooks_> andrew____, no
[01:49] <kbrooks_> andrew____, it is in a pipe, whose commands are *executed seperately*
[01:49] <sleeper> anyone know how to install the gnome themes
[01:49] <andrew____> whats to be changed then? sorry for my noobishness
[01:50] <kbrooks_> andrew____, sudo sed -i -e '...' $conffile works without the cat. replace '..' with the regex, and then show me the full command, including the modification i just suggested
[01:50] <madmax> sleeper: 'sudo apt-get install gnome-themes
[01:50] <sleeper> I went to art.gnome.org/themes to download the themes
[01:50] <jrib> sleeper: system -> prefrences -> themes
[01:50] <madmax> or.. that
[01:50] <sleeper> and it says just to drag it into the theme manager
[01:50] <madmax> =)
[01:50] <sleeper> but it keeps giving me that the format is invali
[01:51] <madmax> sleeper: have you tried the command line method?
[01:51] <FuzzyGhost> Heya
[01:51] <kbrooks_> andrew____, INCLUDING the "for" stuff
[01:51] <sleeper> madmax how would I do that?
[01:51] <jrib> sleeper: if you're dragging a tar.gz into it, then it either is not a theme or was improperly created.  In the latter case, extract the tar.gz and look for a README
[01:51] <sleeper> what's the coolest GUI thing I could do with linux?
[01:52] <madmax> sleeper:  open a command prompt and type 'sudo apt-get install gnome-themes'
[01:52] <andrew____> what is the regex?
[01:52] <jrib> !effects | sleeper
[01:52] <ubotu> sleeper: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[01:52] <elpha> sleeper: compiz
[01:52] <godofredo> IndyGunFreak, Is There Any Way To See How Much Bandwidth Is Being Used By An Entire Network?
[01:52] <kbrooks_> andrew____, the thing passed to -e in the command that you copied and pasted above
[01:52] <FuzzyGhost> I'm trying to install better drivers for an onboard ATi gpu, following the unofficial guide, and it tells me to use the deb command in terminal, but terminal tells me that it doesn't understand deb.
[01:53] <andrew____> can you give me the full comand that i must type in please?
[01:53] <systemd0wn> QUESTION, trying to get my ATI x1600 to work with dual monitors, (with closed source drivers) doesn't seem to matter what tutorial i use.
[01:53] <madmax> I'm having trouble getting a multi monitor config to work properly.  Can anyone help me?
[01:53] <kbrooks_> godofredo, Not Necessary To Type Like this
[01:53] <bulmer> FuzzyGhost: deb commands are like dpkg and apt-get
[01:53] <godofredo> kbrooks_, sorry habit...
[01:53] <kbrooks_> andrew____, i can't, you'd confuse it
[01:53] <godofredo> kbrooks_, not sure why :) but it is..
[01:54] <FuzzyGhost> I understand apt-get, I can't remember if I've used dpkg though.
[01:54] <kbrooks_> FuzzyGhost, apt-get is a downloading frontend to dpkg
[01:54] <\Ben> hi guys - is anyone able to give me a hand setting up my wireless belkin f5d7050 with ubuntu? I have folllowd the guide online and ubuntu is recognizing the decice. i can assign ip address. under network tools it shows its transmitting but when i do a "iwconfig" it doesnt show my network. The light on the usb wireless is flashing all the time.
[01:54] <FuzzyGhost> Okay.
[01:54] <CO2Games> How do I install ubuntu in a folder rather than the root?
[01:54] <retour> When I press Esc on the Ubuntu CD 1-st welcome screen with options it dumpes me into text mode with boot:  command line. What to input there to make it start HDD install instead of Live CD full graphical desktop install?
[01:54] <godofredo> Jordan_U, AFK ? :)
[01:55] <elpha> retour: you need the alternate install Cd
[01:55] <bulmer> Ben what was the option you used for iwconfig ?
[01:55] <kbrooks_> FuzzyGhost, that uses repos, handles deps, etc
[01:55] <jrib> CO2Games: what OS are you using?
[01:55] <CO2Games> Windows XP
[01:55] <CO2Games> I want to dual boot
[01:55] <Jordan_U> godofredo, Why not? :)
[01:55] <FuzzyGhost> That I understand, if it doesn't find the package or repository, it can't do anything.
[01:56] <kbrooks_> FuzzyGhost, correct
[01:56] <\Ben> bulmer, option? i just typed iwconfig... its showing my device in there but ESSID:off/any - and no mac address of the network its connecting to
[01:56] <godofredo> Jordan_U, I run a server off of my network, and i was wondering how much bandwidth i was using? Is there an app to trace that
[01:56] <jrib> CO2Games: there's a difference between dual boot and installing in a folder.  I'll have ubotu send you dual boot instructions, but you could also use some virtualization solution on windows xp to actuall install ubuntu to a folder (ask ##windows for more info about your options on XP)
[01:56] <PurpZeY> Can someone point in the direction of installing Azureus? I hear that the version from the repos is poor
[01:56] <andrew____> so you want "sudo cat $conffile | sed -i -e 's/RadioState|1/RadioState|0/' > 4 conffile" to be entered correct?
[01:56] <jrib> !dualboot  > CO2Games
[01:57] <kbrooks_> andrew____, no
[01:57] <bulmer> Ben also look at iwlist
[01:57] <con_gone> !dualboot | CO2games

[01:57] <\Ben> ok
[01:57] <andrew____> no?
[01:57] <kbrooks_> andrew____, i gave you a version of the command that works without the unnecessary cat. also, note the "4" typo
[01:57] <jrib> PurpZeY: try the version in the repos first... if there is a problem you should file a bug so that it gets fixed
[01:58] <kbrooks_> andrew____, please make sure that you don't just type the command by itself
[01:58] <Jordan_U> godofredo, I am sure there are but I can't recommend any off hand
[01:58] <andrew____> yeah i noticed the 4. so i can just edit out the cat as well and then run it?
[01:58] <Cairna> Anybody have any ideas as to why my headset doesn't work with ubuntu? :/
[01:58] <kbrooks_> andrew____, DONT TYPE THE COMMAND BY ITSELF
[01:58] <Cairna> Kind of at a loss.
[01:58] <godofredo> Jordan_U, k thx
[01:58] <elpha> hey ubuntu people, I'm trying to get the usb ports on my monitor (dell 2007fp) to work, and I'm finding nothing googling. anyone have suggestion where i should start looking for a solution?
[01:59] <kbrooks_> andrew____, it is wrapped within a for loop. also, -i needs a $conffile after the -e option
[01:59] <Whosits> I was here a little while ago about a login issue on a 7.04 system, where I get an error at login telling me there is no space left on the device
[01:59] <andrew____> so.....run it inside the "for conffile......do"?
[01:59] <\Ben> bulmer, is it possible to set the channel in the interface file?
[01:59] <akos> nn-laptop, it turns out my scard is working but only halfly... sound quality is terrible, and works only if i plug in headphones
[01:59] <Whosits> forgive me for the dump post:

[01:59] <jrib> Whosits: use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:59] <FuzzyGhost> If I understand correctly, is deb a command that is not a core part of Ubuntu?
[02:00] <retour> elpha: Thank You! Looks like I have start download.
[02:00] <madmax> I'm having a problem enabling a 3rd monitor, I've tried several suggestions and howto's and I still havent been able to get it working.
[02:00] <Whosits> jrib: ah, that would've been smarter. I wasn't sure if we had one going for general use, or not.
[02:00] <kbrooks_> andrew____, not inside that code fragment, specifically. but replace the main code which uses sed inside the loop with the better command i gave you
[02:00] <elpha> retour: np!
[02:00] <ariks> xrandr seg faults on me when I added xinerama to my xorg.conf
[02:00] <jrib> Whosits: to fix your issue, hit ctrl-alt-f1 and login, delete some stuff so you can get some space (sudo apt-get clean  should probably give you enough).  Then hit ctrl-alt-f7 to get back to X
[02:00] <bulmer> FuzzyGhost: redhat and suse  uses rpm   ubuntu uses dpkg
[02:00] <madmax> The device listing in my xorg.conf is correct afaik, but it still isnt working
[02:00] <kbrooks_> FuzzyGhost, apt-get needs dpkg
[02:00] <\Ben> bulmer- ah found it - cheers wireless-channel funnyilly enough.
[02:00] <Whosits> jrib: I've got plenty of space
[02:01] <andrew____> i understand i have to run it in the loop.
[02:01] <andrew____> so what is the total line that i must run within the loop?
[02:01] <andrew____> can you just edit my one above and give it to me?
[02:01] <Whosits> more than 5 GB free for my /home partition, and more than 3 for my root
[02:01] <kbrooks_> andrew____, link me to the guide
[02:01] <FuzzyGhost> Okay
[02:01] <kbrooks_> andrew____, which you used
[02:01] <madmax> xorg.conf is located: http://pastebin.com/m6a0b660b
[02:01] <kbrooks_> andrew____, for ndiswrapprt
[02:02] <Cairna> Any idea as to why my headset ain't workin'?
[02:02] <genesis> hello!!
[02:02] <kbrooks_> andrew____, ndiswrapper
[02:02] <andrew____> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683
[02:02] <kbrooks_> !hi | genesis
[02:02] <retour> What should I use for PIII400Mhz machine with 128MB of RAM? Alternate CD and go with GNOME into same installation as Ubuntu from LiveCD or Xubuntu? But is Xubuntu desktop user friendly and configurable??? On Ubuntu I've installed Fluxbox from repos but default install is completely RAW (was expecting same apps entries as Ubuntu has ubder Gnome
[02:02] <ubotu> genesis: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> retour: xubuntu is very user friendly.
[02:03] <Whosits> jrib: any other ideas?
[02:03] <bulmer> retour try them both, and see if you get the feel of it
[02:03] <kbrooks_> andrew____, i assume you have done ndiswrapper -m, no?
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> retour: i'd use the alternate xubuntu cd on that one(believe it only requires 64mb Ram)
[02:03] <andrew____> yes. evey step up to the loop worked fine.
[02:03] <serenity> retour xubuntu you get a row of icons along bottom like a mac, also thunar file manager which is like a simpler nautilus
[02:04] <Whosits> serenity, I don't know if you remember me from about an hour ago
[02:04] <serenity> yes
[02:04] <jrib> Whosits: google looks promising but I'm on 56k so give me a few minutes :)
[02:04] <retour> Err I would love to try everything personally for best feel but my download speed is crappy. 6-8 hrs for 1 700MB CD and is completed succesfully after 1-st time IF I'm lucky
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> xubuntu is pretty similar to Gnome, if you ask me..., cosmetically anyways, i'm sure under the hood there's differences
[02:05] <Whosits> serenity, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30059/plain/ is my error message
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> retour: then i'd use the alternate Xubuntu CD, its about 99.9% to work, Live CD's can be picky about some hardware, etc.
[02:05] <Whosits> and jrib, I can google, thank you for your effort
[02:05] <kbrooks_> andrew____, for conffile in ...; do (newline) sudo sed -i -e 's/RadioState|1/RadioState|0/' $conffile (newline) done
[02:05] <retour> Serenity Indy - I mostly expect any desktop manager so I can create my own entries icons etc
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> retour: ok, i don't see why you couldnt create your own entries on an xubuntu desktop(at least I have)
[02:06] <kbrooks_> andrew____, (newline)  = press enter. also, replace "..." by /etc/ndiswrapper/bcmwl5/*.conf
[02:06] <jrib> Whosits: make sure  df -h  really says that you have free space.  I don't see what else would cause it
[02:06] <dbarcena> does anyone know the quickest/easiest way to get my linksys wmp54g (v4) wireless card working on this os?
[02:06] <retour> Sounds good so to be sure I'm downloading right thing its name is XUBUNTU ALTERNATE CD.ISO?
[02:07] <FuzzyGhost> Okay, well, how can I get the bash to find the deb command?
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> retour: thats what i would do.
[02:07] <dbarcena> i checked online already, but it doesnt make much sense to me
[02:07] <jrib> FuzzyGhost: what are you trying to do?
[02:08] <dbarcena> im trying to connect to my personal wireless network
[02:08] <andrew____> right. so it finished, asked for my password, and then did nothing.
[02:08] <andrew____> did it work?
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> retour: also i'd make sure you download the current version(Feisty Fawn), and not Dapper or Edgy, and also make sure you down the 32bit version
[02:08] <bulmer> FuzzyGhost: man dpkg
[02:08] <retour> Indy - Thank you! And another question is do we have other repos than the ones predefined by Ubuntu during install?
[02:08] <FuzzyGhost> Okay, I think I found the problem, I needed to update my sources list
[02:09] <FuzzyGhost> I thought that I needed to type deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main into terminal
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> retour: you'll add repos and what not depeding on what you wan tto install, after your system is installed.
[02:09] <FuzzyGhost> Sorry about that
[02:09] <puff> is there another browser besides firefox in the ubuntu apt servers?
[02:09] <puff> I can't seem to find one.
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> retour: did you catch what i said about making sure you download the i386 alternate iso, and not the 64bit?
[02:09] <bulmer> lynx ?
[02:10] <sfreak> opera
[02:10] <puff> Full-fledged browsre, yeah.
[02:10] <jrib> puff: epiphany-browser, dillo, konqueror, kazehakase
[02:10] <retour> Indy: Yes but do we have a list of different repos with whats there. Even if not officialy supported by Ubuntu but will work as its debian or some smart converter from other distro repos like rpm to deb etc?
[02:10] <puff> jrib: which one's best? :-)
[02:11] <serenity> Whosits what does it say for df -h
[02:11] <retour> Indy: Yes I fully understand old and modern processors architecture (within limits of advanced user - not hardware developer)
[02:11] <gord> try them and see for yourself puff
[02:11] <jrib> puff: epiphany is the default GNOME browser, Konqueror is default for kde, and dillo and kazehakase are pretty light browsers.  I like epiphany
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> retour: ok..
[02:11] <puff> jrib: web browsers?
[02:12] <jrib> puff: yep
[02:12] <chris__> when will cnr be in ubuntu?
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> jrib: why don't they put ephiphany in the default gnome installs?
[02:12] <retour> So far on this machine is Damn Small Linux and this thing is smoking wires BUT difficult for me to manage and install stuff even with help of its synaptic
[02:13] <jrib> IndyGunFreak: it's been debated.  I think the big argument for firefox is that a lot of windows users will be familiar with it already
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> jrib: makes sense.
[02:13] <puff> jrib: Thanks.
[02:13] <flowbot> I installed xubuntu feisty last night, and after trying to adduser, I no longer have any groups :( ... is there an easy way to get groups back?
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> retour: yeah, DSL is a good distro, but its not for everyone.
[02:14] <r2d4> I see a lot these messages in my dmesg
[02:14] <r2d4> [66338.756000]  parport0: FIFO is stuck
[02:14] <r2d4> [66338.800000]  parport0: BUSY timeout (1) in compat_write_block_pio
[02:14] <r2d4> What does that mean?
[02:14] <philsf> ?
[02:14] <jrib> flowbot: use the 'adduser' or 'usermod' commands is the easiest way I know
[02:14] <philsf>  /ehelp
[02:14] <flowbot> jrib, to add a user, or to get groups back?
[02:15] <jrib> flowbot: adduser foo bar    adds the user "foo" to the group "bar"
[02:15] <systemd0wn> Question, now that i have dual monitors working is it possible to get gnome to wrap the toolbars across both of them?
[02:15] <archoniam> Allo... uh... how do you mount an ISO in Ubuntu Fiesty?
[02:15] <jrib> !iso > archoniam (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:16] <archoniam> Thanks Jrib
[02:16] <Whosits> I actually have to leave on an urgent matter - thank you guys for your help anyway! I'll check df -h, I found the sites through google
[02:16] <conorkirkpatrick> I have the normal LiveCD (7.04) and my CD drive is to slow to do anything, and I am running short on CD's, is it possible to do a text mode install with the normal LiveCD?
[02:16] <retour> IndyGunFreak: I have videocard that shares system memory but needs support from OS to get into decent res and color depth. Old Mandriva was working fine on it but DSL is maxed out at 800x600 and 16bit when I want to have it 1024 and 16 bit there is no go. I think because 2.4 kernel.
[02:16] <flowbot> jrib, only problem is that *all* groups are gone ... i can't even start gdm because gdm group is gone ... could i just copy /etc/groups from a working install to my bunged up one?
[02:16] <jrib> conorkirkpatrick: no
[02:17] <retour> conor - probably NO already asked here
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> retour: not really sure on that one
[02:17] <FuzzyGhost> Okay, followed the guide, and hopefully it'll work.
[02:17] <FuzzyGhost> Wish me luck.
[02:17] <sleeper> is there a harddrive partition GUI tool that I could use
[02:17] <sleeper> with ubuntu?
[02:17] <exs> Does anyone know about an updated flash version for firefox?.. because right now it's making my linux laptop so slow!
[02:17] <sleeper> I have a hard drive I need to partition
[02:17] <jrib> flowbot: oh, the groups don't actually exist anymore?  It's not just that your user is no longer a member of the groups?
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> conorkirkpatrick: no, you must download the alternate install CD for text install.
[02:17] <\Ben> bulmer, when i use iwlist scan it says interface doesnt support scanning. when i use iwlist ap it says "interface doesnt have a list of peers/access-points"
[02:17] <jrib> sleeper: gparted
[02:17] <sleeper> thanks
[02:18] <flowbot> jrib, yeah ... using "useradd shayne" totally hosed all groups ... probly cos i didn't do useradd properly
[02:18] <jrib> exs: not really, flash 9 is in the repos.  Yes, flash on linux sucks.  /me looks in the general direction of adobe
[02:18] <conorkirkpatrick> IndyGunFreak: Hmm, I have internet on it, is it possible to maybe partition the HD, and do an apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?
[02:18] <exs> jrib:  how do I make sure I got the latest version?
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> conorkirkpatrick: do you have a CLI system installed?
[02:18] <jrib> flowbot: ok, but only shayne is an issue right?
[02:19] <conorkirkpatrick> IndyGunFreak: nothing is installed, though, I am perfectly willing to erase the HD
[02:19] <jrib> exs: apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> conorkirkpatrick: then no, to do a textbased install, you have to use the alternate install CD.
[02:19] <scotty> should i install beryl??
[02:19] <retour> conor: Lately I've discovered that Memorex CDs are crap and make your CD create behave and noises like its broken. Burned it on MAXELL CD with Made in Japan print on it and my supposedly broken CD-ROM drive is smoking in reading tests
[02:19] <sleeper> what's better for storage, reiserFS or ext3?
[02:19] <flowbot> jrib, not sure - all i know is nothing works now
[02:19] <conorkirkpatrick> IndyGunFreak: Ok, I suppose copying the CD to the HD won't work either? (lol, i'm being difficult :D)
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> conorkirkpatrick: yes you are.
[02:20] <jrib> flowbot: alright, do you still have your original user?
[02:20] <conorkirkpatrick> :D
[02:20] <akos> hello! what alsa drivers are in gutsy?
[02:20] <retour> almost 60 Memorex cd drum went straicght to the trash can
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> retour: use sony DVD-Rs, no probs
[02:20] <jrib> akos: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy
[02:21] <unix4me> how do I install gnome-main-menu in ubuntu? apparently the package settings aren't well set... how do i enable universe repositories and things like that?
[02:21] <retour> Indy: I have CD-RW machine. No DVD burner yet and probably ever as they became obsolete already (Blue ray and other new stuff)
[02:21] <nagyv> hello! I am helping my brother remotely with in his first Linux experience, and just realised that he installed edgy and I gave him a feisty sources.list file. I already started apt-get upgrade unfortunately. What could be the safest next step if I would like to avoid reinstalling?
[02:21] <jrib> !universe > unix4me (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:21] <unix4me> !universe
[02:21] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> retour: i see, are you using RW disks, or R disks?
[02:22] <unix4me> retour: DVD-R is still up2date ;)
[02:22] <unix4me> jrib: but how do I enable them?
[02:22] <jrib> nagyv: I would just upgrade to feisty anyway
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> unix4me: maybe not where he is... who knows.
[02:22] <jrib> unix4me: the message from ubotu explains
[02:22] <jrib> or the link rather
[02:22] <levander> Is there a command to just show the one line description of a package?  I could do an "apt-cache search <package name>", but if you know the name of a package, it seems there should be a command just to read the one line description out of it.  It would be faster than searcher the entire respository, and you wouldn't have the chance of having multiple packages in the output.
[02:22] <yamarash> hola
[02:22] <unix4me> !es | yamarash
[02:22] <ubotu> yamarash: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[02:23] <nagyv> jrib: the problem was that for some reason (my guess is that the CD was wrong) it did not installed, so he installed edgy
[02:23] <unix4me> how can I get a windows vista-like orb for ubuntu? (i'm trying to get a vista theme going...)
[02:23] <nagyv> jrib: is it possible/safe to upgrade with apt-get updgrade instead of dist-upgrade?
[02:23] <retour> I dont use CD-RW for backup or important stuff - only as a transfer/transport media (photos to local CD lab if I want paper/ prints/ stuff to take to friends etc) So I always use CD-R disks in DAO mode to safe space and get extra compatibility with Orange book
[02:24] <jrib> nagyv: right, but he can upgrade to feisty from edgy without reinstalling.  And he's already half way there.  No, you can finish it off with a dist-upgrade now
[02:24] <nagyv> jrib: ok, so I will finish running the normal upgrade, and then a dist-upgrade, is this meaningful?
[02:25] <scotty> unix4me, try beryl
[02:25] <iratik> Off the wall question -- i've got a tv tuner card ... what are a few apps i can use to try to watch tv from the tuner card on ubuntu ( i did search the repo for tv tuner - nothing right on target seemed to come up) ?
[02:25] <jrib> nagyv: I would just dist-upgrade.  You might hit some bumps since update-manager is recommended for upgrades now, but I think it should be ok
[02:25] <unix4me> scotty: my computer's too old
[02:25] <astro76> iratik, tvtime
[02:25] <iratik> astro76:see... it just says high quality video de-interlacer

[02:26] <akos_> Hello! I have to download the alsa 1.0.14 drivers, but I don't want to switch to gutsy. Is it possible to download only them (+dependencies) from the gutsy repository?
[02:27] <iratik> no kidding*!
[02:27] <iratik> astro76: that was 10,000 times easier than getting wintv installed on xp

[02:48] <FurryNemesis> puppy-user-06som, you'd need a custom xorg.conf section and the right drivers for a start I think
[02:49] <puppy-user-06som> the problem is the drivers
[02:49] <puppy-user-06som> how to get the /dev/input/js0 node
[02:49] <basketcase3> Could someone tell me if these instructions (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185079) will work for Fiesty? I'm downloading the gcc packages now.
[02:51] <Rezzie> When using Ubuntu 7.04 will it automatically select the best kernel (from those avaliable) to use? I'm talking about the SMP, i686 etc, as those packages in the package manager are marked as obsolete?

[02:55] <erisco> hi
[02:55] <breakerfall> wow, large channel o.o
[02:55] <erisco> this is the only working window right now... I tried to shut down but KATE came up and complained about an unsaved document... and now ubuntu is crashed
[02:55] <erisco> what is the key combo to get to a text only terminal?
[02:55] <breakerfall> just a quick question, I tested 6.10 a small while back and one of the things I wasn't keen on, was the lack of choice over the applications that come bundled with ubuntu
[02:55] <Flannel> erisco: ctrl-alt-f1 (f7 gets you back to GUI)
[02:55] <breakerfall> has this changed with the 7+ series?
[02:56] <jpatota> is there anything special i need to install in ubuntu for a hardware raid to work properly?
[02:56] <breakerfall> can I select packages during install?
[02:56] <conorkirkpatrick> How do you mount a hard drive from the LiveCD?
[02:56] <zani> hey guys, is there a ubuntu repos in dvd like debian does?
[02:56] <erisco> it says my login is incorrect :s
[02:56] <erisco> and it isn't _my_ login...
[02:56] <Flannel> breakerfall: no, Although you could install a minimal system and then install what you want later.
[02:56] <erisco> it says "eric login" not "erisco login"
[02:56] <pushpop> anyone here good with setting up LVM I have a few questions
[02:56] <breakerfall> ok, thanks Flannel
[02:57] <Flannel> zani: No, but you can use something like AptOnCD to make a DVD of packages (as a repository on acD)
[02:57] <chaotic>  this is basically what i need to do delete .wine/program files/funcom/ anarchy online/cd_image/gui/default and move from desktop cd_image to  .wine/c_drive/progam files/funcom/anarchy online
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> whats the command to uninstall a program, and purge it?
[02:57] <conorkirkpatrick> How do you mount a hard drive from the LiveCD?
[02:57] <breakerfall> conorkirkpatrick, mount -t <type goes here> /dev/XXX /path/to/mount
[02:57] <Flannel> IndyGunFreak: apt-get remove --purge [package] 
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> Flannel: thanks, knew it was something like that
[02:57] <Flannel> IndyGunFreak: or in synaptic, "complete removal"
[02:57] <zani> if i use the debian repos it would be ok right?
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> Flannel: ok..thanks
[02:58] <zani> would apt be smart enough to not break something?
[02:58] <conorkirkpatrick> breakerfall: I know the command, I was jsut wondering how to get it to recognize the HD from the Live CD. I tried dmesg | grep hd and it found a device of 20GB (my hd) but I have no idea how to mount it as it isn't in mtab or fstab
[02:58] <WaxyFresh> cntrl alt backspace isint working for me is there another method to restart xserver?
[02:58] <dave_> needing a bit of help if anyone has a moment
[02:59] <Flannel> zani: No.  The packages are all named/versioned differently.  No binary compatability between ubuntu and debian repositories.  However if you got a source deb, it should work
[02:59] <MusashiX90> I'm having trouble with Ubuntu Server 7.04 detecting my RTL8139 network card.

[02:59] <chris__> what is the difference from ubuntu desktop and ubuntu server?
[03:00] <dave_> recommendation of a new motherboard
[03:00] <Flannel> chris__: the default packages installed.  Server has no GUI by default, desktop does.
[03:00] <Flannel> chris__: also, server has an alt CD setup (so you can do stuff like LVM), a LAMP pre-install, and also installs the -server kernel by default, instead of the generic one.
[03:00] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Does anybody here havee xpierence setting up Torrentflux?
[03:00] <chris__> lvm?
[03:01] <chris__> server kernel?
[03:01] <Flannel> chris__: yeah, the desktop CD can't do LVM, the Alt and Server CDs can.
[03:01] <chris__> what is lvm?
[03:01] <Flannel> chris__: Are you looking to have a desktop machine that also runs server things?
[03:01] <pushpop> its a headache chris
[03:02] <pushpop> because im trying to configure it now
[03:02] <Flannel> chris__: it's an abstraction layer ontop of physical drives.  Allows you to resize partitions, merge disks into larger ones, plenty of other goodies.
[03:02] <pushpop> and i reinsatlled the os 3 times already
[03:02] <Flannel> !ask | pushpop
[03:02] <archoniam> Um hiyas... I'm at trying to get SM to work again. I have tried root, i have tried sudo, make install AS root AND using sudo or any combination of that and the program ALWAYS gets permission denied. What is going on?

[03:02] <pushpop> sorry flannel
[03:02] <scotty> i just followed a long guide on installing beryla dn it didnt work, i guess its too old

[03:02] <conorkirkpatrick> What package allows me to SSH into ubuntu?
[03:03] <chris__> ssh
[03:03] <pushpop> apt-get install ssh
[03:03] <Rezzie> :)
[03:03] <Pelo> scotty,  try asking for help in #beryl
[03:03] <kitche> conorkirkpatrick: openssh-server
[03:03] <conorkirkpatrick> kitche: thnx
[03:03] <Flannel> chris__: Well, if you've got a desktop already, you're better off just installing whatever server programs you want.  Linux makes no distinction between "desktop" and "server" systems
[03:03] <younghacker> why do people prefer torrent sites over other p2p software? (just a question)
[03:03] <Pelo> conorkirkpatrick,  search for ssh in synaptic
[03:03] <blackmamba> ugh, my screen flickers. ati radeon x700, acer 1916w lcd widescreen 19" monitor supposed to run at 1440x900@75Hz, i get a horizontal banding on large off-white blocks of color, like the default wallpaper. i've been furiously editing xorg.conf to try to fix it but i can't. xorg is set up correctly, my screen just...flickers
[03:03] <conorkirkpatrick> pelo: I am trying to SSH into the PC to try to mount the HD from the LiveCD and do a good old manual install
[03:03] <conorkirkpatrick> pelo: Sounds fun, doesn't it? ;)
[03:04] <Pelo> younghacker,  the way the multi peer dl is setup in torrents makes it more reliable to get stuff, you donT' end up waiting in queue for days
[03:04] <conorkirkpatrick> Pelo: Also, no X
[03:04] <younghacker> ahhh,,, is it true that torrent uses it's own protocol for transfers?
[03:04] <Pelo> !install | conorkirkpatrick  did you read this ?
[03:04] <ubotu> conorkirkpatrick  did you read this ?: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[03:04] <archoniam> blackmamba: Have you tried adjusting the refresh rate higher?
[03:05] <younghacker> i despise point to point software,, but probably only because i know how much damage it's done to some 'MS' boxes i've seen
[03:05] <younghacker> i've never used on Ubuntu
[03:05] <Pelo> younghacker,  yes , bittorent protocol is much different fhen the other kind of p2p,  for one thing you donT' need to have the whole thing to share it with others
[03:06] <younghacker> i see
[03:06] <blackmamba> archoniam: i can't, the screen resolution dialogue will never list more than one option at a time. right now it lists 76Hz... my vertrefresh and horizsync options are set up correctly to my monitor's specs

[03:07] <archoniam> blackmamba: Uhh, when you can adjust it to 60. My brother has that setting.
[03:07] <Assassin`> kk
[03:07] <Flannel> pushpop: You ever going to ask your LVM question?
[03:07] <conorkirkpatrick> Pelo: My original plan was to mount the HD then figure out a way to have apt-get install the package "kubuntu-desktop" onto the HD rather than into memory.
[03:08] <banlieue> gtkrll it can't find, but screenlets seems worth checking out
[03:08] <Pelo> conorkirkpatrick,  I'm not familiar enough with the intricacies of the install process to advice you on this,
[03:08] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH
[03:08] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Does anybody here havee xpierence setting up Torrentflux?
[03:08] <conorkirkpatrick> Pelo: okay, thanks anyway :D
[03:09] <banlieue> screenlets requires a composite manager though ;/
[03:09] <banlieue> i just got rid of that lol
[03:09] <Pelo> banlieue,  that's probably the wront spelling for gtkrll,  I just donT' recall what it is
[03:09] <SlimG2> Where do I add the hostname I want dhclient3 to send to the dhcp server?
[03:09] <blackmamba> archoniam: i can't through gnome's interface, i have to change it in xorg.conf... lots of fiddling around. it seems to flicker no matter what setting i put it on, the only thing that changes is the flicker speed
[03:09] <banlieue> gkrellm it seems
[03:09] <banlieue> glad they keep the names simple ;)
[03:09] <banlieue> thanks Pelo
[03:10] <Pelo> [App] sUb-ZeRo,   sudo apt-get install torrentflux
[03:10] <younghacker> i want to import an XML document into postgresql as data in one of databases, anyone have anysuggestions?
[03:10] <sponsz> http://vaniketamer.miniville.fr/
[03:10] <sponsz> http://vaniketamer.miniville.fr/
[03:10] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Pelo: yeah, I did that, but it has errors
[03:10] <SlimG2> Where do I add the hostname I want dhclient3 to send to the dhcp server?
[03:10] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Pelo: it has permissions errors and I cannot figure it out
[03:10] <Pelo> [App] sUb-ZeRo,  during the install or when running ?
[03:11] <archoniam> blackmamba: Make the flickering rate as fast as possible. Then you may be able to completely end the flickering.
[03:11] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> well, while running
[03:11] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Pelo. have you set it up before?
[03:11] <Pelo> [App] sUb-ZeRo,  what't the error ?
[03:11] <Pelo> no
[03:11] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> can i pm you?
[03:11] <Pelo> no
[03:11] <archoniam> And please post your xorg.conf on paste.ubuntu.com.
[03:11] <MasterNe0> Does anyone know how to grow the ext3 volume? I got both windows and ubuntu installed. Want to divert some windows space over to ubuntu.
[03:12] <blackmamba> archoniam: hmm, guess i've got some more fiddling to do
[03:12] <Pelo> [App] sUb-ZeRo,  I use utorrent running on wine, never had any problems
[03:12] <younghacker> can someone advise me on importing XML data into postgresql?
[03:12] <[App] sUb-ZeRo> Pelo: Warning: opendir(/var/www/torrentflux/rents/) [function.opendir] : failed to open dir: Permission denied in /var/www/torrentflux/html/dir.php on line 321
[03:12] <karonte> hey
[03:12] <Flannel> MasterNe0: ext3 can only be expanded backwards (foot can move, head can't).  Depending on the size of your partitions, you can manuever it around and get it to work if you're moving the head though
[03:12] <Helton> hola
[03:12] <karonte> whos everybody
[03:12] <karonte> hola
[03:13] <archoniam> blackmamba: Just post the xorg.conf at the ubuntu paste place (try and say that 3 times fast) at paste.ubuntu.com
[03:13] <MasterNe0> i got about 15 gb for ubuntu. the rest, about 70 for windows.
[03:13] <Pelo> [App] sUb-ZeRo,  I would try to give permission to the folders and files mentionned,    sudo chmod 755  /path/file
[03:13] <jrib> archoniam: it's http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org , I think paste.ubuntu.com will be 404
[03:13] <Flannel> MasterNe0: How much space you looking to give Ubuntu?  And how much space (actual space, not just partition size) is it already using?
[03:13] <blackmamba> jrib: youre right
[03:13] <archoniam> I'm at trying to get SM to work again. I have tried root, i have tried sudo, make install AS root AND using sudo or any combination of that and the program ALWAYS gets permission denied. What is going on?
[03:13] <thebigham> Hello everyone, I have a problem trying to partitiion my hard drive. It keep giving me an error.
[03:14] <flowbot> jrib, yay, got groups sorted by copying /etc/group from working install :)
[03:14] <archoniam> lol sorry

[03:14] <thebigham> I have tried partition magic also, it gives me the same error
[03:14] <archoniam> I'm at trying to get SM to work again. I have tried root, i have tried sudo, make install AS root AND using sudo or any combination of that and the program ALWAYS gets permission denied. What is going on?
[03:14] <CrashandDie> hey all, what should I do if emerald fails to work correctly (I don't have window decoration when beryl is launched) ?
[03:14] <thebigham> Is there anything i can do?
[03:14] <blackmamba> lol sorry for typos i onlu have eight fingers right now, two are sprained
[03:14] <MasterNe0> another 10gb from windows to ubuntu. windows has about 20 free.
[03:14] <Pelo> thebigham,  what is the error ?
[03:14] <archoniam> blackmamba: Ow. How did you do that?
[03:14] <Flannel> MasterNe0: and how much space is Ubuntu currently using?  (Less than 10?)
[03:14] <thebigham> It only says it failed to complete the partition
[03:15] <kev_b> does anyone know why, with 2500 emails in my junk mail folder (added manually), I have not yet had a spam automatically filtered in Evolution? I have 'check for incoming junk mail' and 'include remote tests' checked in prefs and 'check new messages for junk content' checked in the account settings.
[03:15] <thebigham> and the partition magic said it has detected alot of errors on my hard drive
[03:15] <conorkirkpatrick> flannel: I am going with the SSH instructions, but when I enter "fdisk /dev/hda" It causes an error: "Unable to open /dev/hda"
[03:15] <MasterNe0> 15 total.
[03:15] <Pelo> thebigham,  try to do it in seperate steps,  first make room ( resize or whatever) , apply,  then create the new pariition , , if more then one ,  do them one at a time,  applying the change between each step
[03:16] <CrashandDie> hey all, what should I do if emerald fails to work correctly (I don't have window decoration when beryl is launched) ?
[03:16] <blackmamba> there we go. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30066/    archoniam: well theyre actually badly infected but sprained is a shorter word :P infection thru joint and bone it six
[03:16] <scotty> how come i installed beryl but i dotn see the desktop cube???
[03:16] <zero> How do you chroot using ubuntu
[03:16] <blackmamba> sux*
[03:16] <archoniam> kev_b: Get a new cliend. I would suggest Thunderbird 2.
[03:16] <zero> Keeps giving me /bin/bash: permission denied
[03:16] <archoniam> client*
[03:16] <SlimG2> Where do I add the hostname I want dhclient3 to send to the dhcp server?
[03:16] <jrib> zero: you need to be root to chroot, are you using sudo?
[03:16] <jlinux> /list
[03:16] <zero> No, I enabled root and tried it
[03:16] <arch> Is there a way to unmap the <super> key from opening the applications menu?
[03:16] <zero> And it still gives me the error
[03:17] <fevel> hey guys...I have unallocated space in my HD and would like to add to ext3. I tried to resize in gparted but I could only shrink it. Can anyone help me out??
[03:17] <kev_b> archoniam: :( i like Evolution... is it a known problem?
[03:17] <thebigham> Okay thanks Pelo
[03:17] <jrib> zero: what do you mean by "enabled root and tried it"?
[03:17] <younghacker> how can i update software using apt-get?
[03:17] <zero> I set a password for root
[03:17] <zero> su'd it
[03:17] <jrib> younghacker: apt-get upgrade, or to upgrade a specific package:  apt-get install PACKAGE
[03:17] <zero> And it's still giving me problems
[03:17] <jrib> zero: why?  You don't need to set a password for root
[03:18] <younghacker> ok i see thank you
[03:18] <MasterNe0> it has about 15gb for ubuntu currently.
[03:18] <flowbot> after installing xubuntu and configuring backup server, is there anyway to turn it into a command line system only?
[03:18] <zero> ...
[03:18] <conorkirkpatrick> flannel: I am going with the SSH instructions, but when I enter "fdisk /dev/hda" It causes an error: "Unable to open /dev/hda"
[03:18] <CrashandDie> Ok, so anyone ever had a problem with emerald not loading properly ??
[03:18] <chris__> is there a program like google desktop but not by google and yeah....
[03:18] <Hyarion2> hi, ever since I installed Ubuntu the entire computer will freeze, except the mouse, but I'm not even able to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, this happens with both GNOME/KDE and even after upgrading to Fiesty, any ideas?
[03:18] <zerokill88> what are some real good encryption software for ubuntu????
[03:18] <zero> jrib, on Ubuntu, root is disabled by default
[03:18] <jrib> zero: correct
[03:18] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: do you have SATA drives instead of IDE drives?
[03:18] <Evan_> wireless help please
[03:18] <SlimG2> Where do I add the hostname I want dhclient3 to send to the dhcp server?
[03:18] <jrib> zero: you use sudo instead
[03:18] <Pelo> !wifi | Evan_
[03:18] <ubotu> Evan_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:18] <archoniam> kev_b: Not really =P It's just an annoying thing. I guess you could fiddle around with it until it works. Better yet, what email server are you using? (Like gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc.)
[03:18] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: Nope, I have Plan Old IDE drives, though one is an IBM "Deathstar"
[03:19] <zero> I prefer su
[03:19] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: but the Deathstart is working fine
[03:19] <younghacker> also , i wanted yakuake (pull down terminal window) to run as a start up program, i typed the name yakuake in the startup programs dialogue box in sessions but i still have to manuall start, anybody know how to fix?
[03:19] <zero> Anyway
[03:19] <jrgotti> how do i change the icon that is displayed on avant window navigator when an application is opened?
[03:19] <Evan_> i've been through the wireless documentation, i need troubleshooting
[03:19] <zero> jrib, even while su'd it gives the /bin/bash: permission denied error
[03:19] <CrashandDie> heellllloooooooo ?
[03:19] <kev_b> archoniam: I'm using dreamhost and their on-server filtering sucks (e.g. not allowed to use a catch-all and spam filtering at same time)
[03:19] <jrib> zero: where are you chroot to?
[03:19] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: er, um, I don't know.  /dev/hda should exist.  That's your primary master.  What drives do you have listed in /dev/?
[03:20] <zero> A partition that's mounted to a file on the desktop
[03:20] <jrgotti> ...nevermind. i love when i ask a question and i immediately remember how to do it.
[03:20] <jrib> zero: and bin/bash is in there?
[03:20] <blackmamba> ZOMG, can setting your horizsync rate too low cause horizontal banding on your screen?
[03:20] <zero> ...
[03:20] <zero> I'm using the command chroot /filepath /bin/bash
[03:20] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: "ls /dev | grep hd" returns nothing, but "ls /dev | grep sd" returns sda and sda1
[03:20] <Pelo> blackmamba, that is what it controls
[03:20] <kev_b> archoniam: but I don't even know what to fiddle with in Evolution, it seems to have no settings for spam apart from enable/disable filtering
[03:20] <jrib> zero: and /filepath/bin/bash exists?
[03:21] <blackmamba> Pelo: i love you. :D restarting xserver now
[03:21] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: Oh, well, uh, try that then.  I do remember hearing something about feisty mapping everything to sdX
[03:21] <archoniam> blackmamba: I think i've figured it out. Please set the resolution pixels to 1024x768. I'll post it in the pastebin Firefox. Gimme a sec tho, i'm tied up quite a bit here, doing four things at a time.
[03:22] <archoniam> kev_b: Then i would suggest getting a new email client
[03:22] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: Fdisk on any SD* drives causes it to say the same error "Unable to open"
[03:22] <Seoke> When downloading NVIDIA drivers for Ubuntu do I dl the Linux X86 or Linux x64?
[03:22] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: you're using sudo, right?
[03:22] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: ...
[03:22] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: WOW n00b mistake there :D
[03:22] <Evan_> pelo: I am in !wifi, no one else is there
[03:22] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: sudo fdisk /dev/whatever
[03:23] <kev_b> archoniam: think i might have to : ( thanks
[03:23] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: Could cfdisk be used? I am more accustomed to it
[03:23] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: actually, all of this will be done with sudo.  You might be better off using `sudo -i` to open a root shell, and then doing all this stuff
[03:23] <bad_cables> ubuntu is takin over!
[03:23] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: sure, All that's doing is partitioning.  you can use whatever you'd like.
[03:23] <Seoke> Is ubuntu Linux x64?
[03:23] <Flannel> Seoke: It can be.  Yes.
[03:24] <WaxyFresh> where can i find images for use with virtualbox?
[03:24] <Snake> Can anyone help me with grub? I need to tell it to install to /dev/sda1, currently its set to (hd0)
[03:24] <kitche> WaxyFresh: have ot make them yourself
[03:24] <Seoke> Flannel, Well I'm trying to download drivers for nvidia do I download the x64 or x86?
[03:24] <Flannel> Seoke: The drivers you download are dependant on what sort of system you're running.  But actually, you should use the built-in ubuntu driver managers
[03:24] <Snake> I dont know how to translate to hd(x,x)
[03:24] <zero> jrib, yes, it exists
[03:24] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: Just a question (not that it matters) Do you have any idea why the HD was mounted as sda? (I know it is the hard drive because it says W95 and that was my prev. os)
[03:24] <Seoke> Flannel, How do I get to the driver managers?
[03:24] <Flannel> Seoke: System > Administration > Restricted Drivers Manager, or something close to that.
[03:25] <Evan_> wireless card is installed, it shows up in lspci, but not in network settings. supported driver installed via ndiswrapper
[03:25] <Seoke> Flannel, The closest thing I found was Device Managers
[03:25] <Snake> Can anyone help me with grub? I need to tell it to install to /dev/sda1, currently its set to (hd0)
[03:25] <Flannel> conorkirkpatrick: Well, I don't have feisty to confirm, but I heard someone say that in feisty they moved everything to be sdX to simplify things, or something like that.
[03:25] <WaxyFresh> kitche: theres no premade ones availible?
[03:25] <Flannel> Snake: hd0 is /dev/sda, the MBR.  Are you sure you don't want that intead of sda1?
[03:25] <conorkirkpatrick> Flannel: Ok, wasn't used to that, though it does seem better, to have all drives on one prefix
[03:26] <jrib> zero: what do the permissions look like
[03:26] <le1> excuse me, I use ub7.04.  please send me a file which named /etc/wodim.conf. flyinflash@gmail.com. Thank you!
[03:26] <archoniam> blackmamba: The corrected version is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30067/ . For one, hope your fingers heal enough so you don't have to typo so much =D And for two, if it dosen't work, i'll establish a remote connection sometime. I'll try to be on tomorrow at noon if you want to see me or now is good. XD Now i gotta repeat my question for the third time.
[03:26] <Snake> Flannel: I dont want it to overwrite the MBR, right now my MBR is @ /dev/sdc1, thats where my bios boots first
[03:26] <zero> jrib, -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 640240 2007-04-19 19:53 bash
[03:26] <Cairn1> How do I disable X Server so I can install my nvidia driver? :)
[03:26] <zero> I even tried chmodding them to 7777
[03:26] <Snake> Flannel: I want it installed at /dev/sda, so hd0 is correct?
[03:26] <le1> excuse me, I use ub7.04.  please send me a file which named /etc/wodim.conf. flyinflash@gmail.com. Thank you!
[03:27] <Flannel> Snake: hd0 is /sda, yes.  hd0,0 would be sda1
[03:27] <archoniam> Now. I ask AGAIN...
[03:27] <jamman> zero, have you chmoded it?
[03:27] <Snake> Flannel: thats all I needed to know, I dont know how grub translates the sdas to hd(x,x) ;)
[03:27] <zero> Yes
[03:27] <kitche> WaxyFresh: not for VirtualBox that I know of
[03:27] <Cairn1> Anyone know how to disable X Server? :/
[03:27] <Flannel> Snake: convert letters to numbers, and subtract one.
[03:27] <archoniam> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30067/
[03:27] <archoniam> woops lol
[03:27] <jamman> hmm. also its chowned it? zero
[03:27] <Seoke> Flannel, How do I check if the drivers for my video card are installed already?
[03:28] <Flannel> Snake: because GRUB starts at 0, and linux starts at 1 (well, and a)
[03:28] <Snake> Flannel: ahhh clever, thatll do :)
[03:28] <Pb> how can i scan a file in xsane from the command line?
[03:28] <archoniam> I'm at trying to get SM to work again. I have tried root, i have tried sudo, make install AS root AND using sudo or any combination of that and the program ALWAYS gets permission denied. What is going on?
[03:28] <zero> jamman, I'm su'd as root
[03:28] <Pb> i want to get the effect of xsane | image.jpg
[03:28] <jamman> zero, and what can you not do?
[03:28] <jamman> edit?
[03:28] <Snake> well here goes nothin
[03:29] <jrgotti> ...if i wanted to patch awn...how would i do that? i have some code...and it says to commit it to svn...how would i go about doing that?
[03:30] <Seoke> How do I cehck to see if my video cards drivers are installed properly?
[03:30] <Rezzie> What is the best (safest?) way to update Ubuntu 7.04 to the latest kernel, without compiling it myself?
[03:30] <zero> jamman, I'm trying to chroot
[03:31] <aroo> Rezzie, using apt-get
[03:31] <aroo> Rezzie, unless you want the brand new kernels as they're released, then you need to compile
[03:31] <coraxx> An error occurred Could not establish connection to sound server I get this mesage when I try to play movies or mp3 enyone know whats wrong?
[03:31] <Flannel> Rezzie: if by "latest kernel" you mean something other than 2.6.20, then you dont. You get a new kernel version when Ubuntu releases 7.10
[03:31] <jrib> zero: make sure permissions on /filepath and /filepath/bin are ok too
[03:31] <Flannel> archoniam: I'm still trying to figure out what SM is.
[03:31] <jamman> zero, try chmod -R 777
[03:31] <Rezzie> Thanks. Guess I'll wait :)
[03:32] <archoniam> Flannel: StepMania.
[03:32] <jrib> jamman: don't recommend that... that usually leads to reinstalls
[03:32] <jamman> jrib, oh, well then don't zero.
[03:32] <archoniam> All: SM IS FREAKING STEPMANIA. Sorry for not telling you that. XD
[03:32] <coraxx> An error occurred Could not establish connection to sound server I get this mesage when I try to play movies or mp3 enyone know whats wrong?
[03:33] <jamman> zero try, "chown root /path/to/dir"
[03:33] <zero> It's already owned by root
[03:33] <archoniam> Coraxx: Your alsa driver could be corrupted. Other than that...uhh... i have no idea.
[03:33] <jamman> zero, well then...
[03:33] <CrashandDie> Am I invisible or what ??,
[03:34] <karonte> how is everybody here
[03:34] <jrib> zero: I have to go now, but checkout mandrivausers.org/lofiversion/index.php/t36838.html .  It seems to discuss the problem in detail
[03:34] <zero> Yeah
[03:34] <zero> Was already there
[03:34] <bad_cables> am i up?
[03:34] <bad_cables> ifconfig should send me up right men?
[03:34] <dthacker> Hi, what settings should I use on my dapper laptop to connect to an unsecured network?
[03:34] <bad_cables> yup
[03:35] <CrashandDie> archoniam, bleh, forums are so 90's
[03:35] <bad_cables> gosh darn isnt ubuntu the best???
[03:35] <jamman> zero, when i try to run chroot i get, "chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file...
[03:35] <jamman> bad_cables, amen man!
[03:35] <jrib> zero: oh, well gl.  Hope you sort it out
[03:35] <zero> jamman, you have to have a /bin/bash in the directory...
[03:35] <ant-> why is ubuntu the best?
[03:35] <grumo> while installing the main hd is called /dev/sdc but when i try to first boot it becomes /dev/sda and i think this is causing a grub error 15, how can i fix this?
[03:35] <jamman> zero, i know, its there, chroot can't find it though.
[03:36] <jamman> zero, try just sudo'ing it.
[03:36] <zero> Well, this is a permission denied error
[03:36] <zero> And jamman I'm su'd as root
[03:36] <ant-> you cant get permission denied error as root
[03:36] <jamman> zero, try doing "sudo -i" instead of "sudo su"
[03:36] <zero> I didn't do sudo su
[03:36] <zero> I did password root
[03:37] <zero> Err
[03:37] <zero> passwd root*
[03:37] <zero> Then su root
[03:37] <ant-> use su - root
[03:37] <conorkirk> flannel: When SSH'ing into the target system, the client says something about the RSA key being invalid, if I just delete "/Users/conorkirkpatrick/.ssh/known_hosts" then will it regenerate it?
[03:37] <jamman> zero, try sudo -i
[03:37] <ant-> the - changes the env variables as well, but it wont help your sitiation
[03:37] <archoniam> OMGZ Must i ask my question a FOURTH TIME???
[03:37] <jamman> conorkirk, yip.
[03:37] <jamman> archoniam, you get that a lot.
[03:37] <jamman> archoniam, what was it?
[03:38] <conorkirk> Oh, and could somebody kick "conorkirkpatrick" I got disconnected, and I can't use my old name because it is still connected in here for some reason. You can check our hostnames if you need proof :D
[03:38] <archoniam> So i do. (#@$%, I must be invisible too.)
[03:38] <elpha> hey all. I'm having usb/hotplug issues, my flash drive and mouse are acting odd, sometimes they work, sometimes not, i have to mess around and randomly plug and unplug them to get ubuntu to pick them up, any suggestions?
[03:38] <archoniam> I'm at trying to get StepMania to work again. I have tried root, i have tried sudo, make install AS root AND using sudo or any combination of that and the program ALWAYS gets permission denied. What is going on?
[03:38] <ant-> conorkirk, #ubuntu-ops
[03:38] <dthacker> does dapper have a wireless detect utility?
[03:38] <Seoke> How do I exit xServer?
[03:39] <elpha> Seoke: you can reboot X by pressing ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:39] <jamman> archoniam, try ./configure and make as user first.
[03:39] <zero> I got it
[03:39] <zero> noexec was a flag on the partition
[03:39] <jamman> zero, ahhh... i see.
[03:39] <Seoke> elpha: nvidia said I need to quit xserver to install the video card
[03:40] <cotyrothery> anyone know at all how i can interlink 2 motherboards
[03:40] <jamman> zero, makes sense now.
[03:40] <kr00lplatinum> anyone use Ventrillo?
[03:40] <archoniam> jamman: Wut? (I really %@#$ at finding commands in terminal.
[03:40] <jamman> cotyrothery, id be interested in that too.
[03:40] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: network cables?
[03:40] <conorkirk> Kr00lplatinum: check ventrillo harrasment on youtube :D
[03:40] <jamman> archoniam, use tab and it will complete it for you.
[03:40] <kr00lplatinum> lol
[03:40] <kr00lplatinum> conorkirk: do you use vent?
[03:40] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: i have ethernet cables
[03:40] <elpha> Seoke: hrm
[03:41] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: then you can interlink two motherboards then ;-)
[03:41] <archoniam> kr00lplatinum: No, but i have heard the song Vi sitter har i ventrilo och spelar DoTA, but that's going a bit far from the topic.
[03:41] <jamman> archoniam, as you do "./configure" then "make" then "sudo make install"
[03:41] <conorkirkpatrick> kr00l: no
[03:41] <dthacker> what settings should I put in the interfaces file to get a PCMCIA type network card to connect to an unsecured network?
[03:41] <frawg> Anyone else gotten a nvidia 7800 GSOC working on ubuntu?  I've tried all the drivers known to man.
[03:41] <Seoke> elpha: Any ideas?
[03:41] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: how?
[03:41] <conorkirkpatrick> frawg: tried apt-get install nvidia-glx-new?
[03:41] <elpha> Seoke: this is going to take you out of x, so i'm going to tell you how to get back too
[03:41] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: well, what exactly are you trying to do?
[03:41] <archoniam> jamman: WTF are you trying to say? I mean, just gimme the str8 code man!
[03:42] <elpha> Seoke: you can press ctrl+alt+f2 to drop to a term
[03:42] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: make it were the two computers share either or both gpu and cpu
[03:42] <elpha> Seoke: and press ctrl+alt+f10 to get back
[03:42] <frawg> conorkirkpatrick, yep, tells me the nvidia kernel is a different version than the package is, it tries to compile a new kernel for it, says it works fine, but no go
[03:42] <kr00lplatinum> Anyone know how i can get GSM audio codec
[03:42] <elpha> from these you should be able to kill X and do what you need to do
[03:42] <jamman> archoniam, i did. in a terminal type in "./configure" in the directory and then "make" and then "sudo make install"
[03:42] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: buy a dual-processor board, fit both CPUs and graphics cards to the board
[03:42] <Seoke> elpha: Okay I'll try thanks be back in a bit to let you know how it went
[03:42] <raylu> how do i mount an ntfs partition with g+r access?
[03:42] <jamman> gordonjcp, are their dual dual core mobos?
[03:42] <CrashandDie> Does anyone have experience with getting emerald (beryl window decorator) to work on an nvidia geforce fx 5200 ??
[03:43] <gordonjcp> jamman: it's a distinct possibility
[03:43] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: no i want to seperat computers
[03:43] <elpha> CrashandDie: not that card
[03:43] <elpha> but a nvidia 6600
[03:43] <jamman> gordonjcp, or get a dual core EXTREME x 2! 8 cores!
[03:43] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: well, you can't really share hardware between two separate machines
[03:43] <cotyrothery> gordonjcp: so me and my freind can play world of warcraft better
[03:43] <gordonjcp> jamman: or a beowulf cluster of snes
[03:43] <dthacker> cotyrothery: google for linux clusters
[03:43] <conorkirkpatrick> frawg: I got this same problem, FX5200, but I got lucky, but then it stopped working, I am in the process of a manual SSH install :(
[03:43] <cotyrothery> im on windows
[03:43] <jamman> gordonjcp, hell yeah!
[03:44] <frawg> conorkirkpatrick, i have no idea how to pull that off :(
[03:44] <gordonjcp> cotyrothery: while you can split program workload between separate machines, you need to have software written to run on a cluster
[03:44] <dthacker> no wireless love in the room tonight?
[03:44] <conorkirkpatrick> jamman: If you can get enough SNESs to make a 1GHZ cluster, I will throw in my SNES
[03:44] <jamman> archoniam, get it yet?
[03:44] <jamman> conorkirkpatrick, that would be awesome. what mghz are they?
[03:44] <conorkirkpatrick> frawg: me neither, there is a tutorial, but I have been using linux for a while, you MIGHT get it
[03:44] <gordonjcp> jamman: ever seen the parallax propeller board?
[03:44] <conorkirkpatrick> jamman: About 3-4
[03:45] <conorkirkpatrick> :D
[03:45] <jamman> gordonjcp, nope. let me check it out on google.
[03:45] <conorkirkpatrick> Jamman: pretty powerful stuff
[03:45] <jamman> conorkirkpatrick, my point :)
[03:45] <frawg> conorkirkpatrick, can you send me the link to the tutorial? I'll see if i can figure it out :P

[03:45] <raylu> conorkirkpatrick/frawg, can't you just install the openssh-server package?
[03:46] <elpha> does anyone know any resources for usb/hotplug troubleshooting?
[03:46] <conorkirkpatrick> raylu: I am already into the host box
[03:46] <conorkirkpatrick> raylu: in the process of the install :d
[03:46] <raylu> how do i mount an ntfs partition with g+r access?
[03:46] <raylu> ...you're installing ssh over ssh?
[03:48] <jamman> gordonjcp, what mobo would you use for that?
[03:48] <conorkirkpatrick> raylu: Then I have a whole diff story getting X to work with my card ^_^
[03:48] <zeelot> hey, does anyone know how I can make the menu items start a 2nd row for extra items instead of making me scroll down? I dont see anything for that in the alacarte
[03:48] <gordonjcp> jamman: well, it comes on a development board
[03:48] <zeelot> something like how it is in XP
[03:48] <jamman> gordonjcp, so that is your cpu? or would it be more of a northbridge?
[03:49] <gordonjcp> jamman: that's the CPU
[03:49] <gordonjcp> jamman: http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=32360
[03:49] <raylu> conorkirkpatrick, so how do you tell it to init the ssh server? on a different port?
[03:50] <raylu> and could anyone tell me how to mount with group permissions?
[03:50] <archoniam> Mother of God. Accedentally hit ctrl alt f10 thinking it was jamman XD then i messed up and didnt know wut to do so i restarted XD
[03:50] <conorkirkpatrick> raylu: I just installed ssh-server and it set it up for me :D
[03:50] <archoniam> Jamman, can you say that again?
[03:51] <conorkirkpatrick> gordonjcp: Woah, thats cool, I am working on an opensourcegameconsole, any chance that could handle SDL/OpenGL apps?
[03:51] <Amaranth> zeelot: you can't do that, that's not how the GtkMenu widget works
[03:51] <jamman> archoniam, change to the dir by "cd /path/to/dir" next do "./configure" then "make" next "sudo make install"
[03:51] <raylu> conorkirkpatrick ...ok, whatever =\
[03:51] <raylu> uid=value, gid=value and umask=value
[03:51] <raylu>     Set the file permission on the filesystem. The umask value is given in octal. By default, the files are owned by root and not readable by somebody else.
[03:51] <raylu> so...there's no gmask?
[03:51] <gordonjcp> conorkirkpatrick: probably not, bear in mind it is *not* in any way like a PC
[03:52] <sidu> Will ubuntu7.10 working well with DVD playing List ? and mouse-pulling on time-bar ?
[03:52] <jamman> gordonjcp, how much mhz ya think?
[03:52] <mrsno> conorkirkpatrick the GP2X perchance?
[03:52] <conorkirkpatrick> gordonjcp: Ok, Because right now my little team is using old OEM Pc's (I am installing Ubuntu on the 'console' right now :D)
[03:52] <conorkirkpatrick> mrsno: Nah, we are not looking into something pertable
[03:52] <mrsno> oic :)
[03:52] <conorkirkpatrick> mrsno: Do you develop for the GP2x
[03:53] <gordonjcp> I just bought a GP2X
[03:53] <Sonic11> about the tulip network driver, is there a way to upgrade to a newer version that works with a network card I'm trying to use?
[03:53] <mrsno> conorkirkpatrick i do not, just interested :)
[03:53] <gordonjcp> jamman: according to the manual they Hydra board runs the CPU at 80MHz
[03:53] <conorkirkpatrick> mrsno/gordonjcp: If you do, then you should check out iPod development, they use a VERY simmilar processor, and all the info you would ever dream of having is at http://ipodlinux.org/
[03:53] <jamman> gordonjcp, reminds me of a snes.
[03:53] <conorkirkpatrick> and they have a great irc channel (dead) #ipodlinux
[03:54] <gordonjcp> jamman: think in terms of an 8-core snes, then ;-)
[03:54] <elpha> does anyone know any resources for usb/hotplug troubleshooting?
[03:54] <mrsno> conorkirkpatrick im not sure i would purchase an ipod, rather an neo1973(openmoko) or a gp2x

[03:56] <jamman> you need ubuntu installed to do it that way.

[04:08] <mrsno> jake_ maybe you did not click 'reload' in synaptic recently? that runs aptitude update
[04:08] <jake_> oh i did so many times
[04:08] <raylu> synaptic is a frontend for aptitude??
[04:08] <jake_> but the command you gave me forced it to downgrade some files though

[04:12] <raylu> mrsno, i can already do that; i want to allow another user to read
[04:12] <lukealpha> hmmm??
[04:12] <raylu> 3g = ?
[04:12] <LTrvls> Good night srs!
[04:12] <Vuen> raylu: ntfs-3g is the ntfs driver which supports writing
[04:12] <mrsno> ubuntu supports read only ntfs by default, installing ntfs-config uses ntfs-3g which lets you read and write
[04:13] <soothsayer> Can anyone do me a favor and check if scuttle.org is working for them?

[04:22] <dodo> jamman: i try ...
[04:22] <defrysk> yimmmy, then go to some azureus forum , but not here
[04:22] <jamman> dodo, just do a "sudo apt-get install xoscope" looks pretty good.
[04:23] <scotty> why doesnt linux get game support damnit
[04:23] <ThanatosDrive> scotty: If you were selling a game, who would you sell it to, in order for maximum profit?
[04:23] <zerokill88> What is a good C++ compiler for linux? with a frontend
[04:24] <Flannel> scotty: It does.  There are an increasing number of games made available for linux natively.
[04:24] <jamman> dodo, check this site out on it... http://xoscope.sourceforge.net/
[04:24] <elmo40> scotty, it is not the problem with game support, it is a problem of HORRIBLE SOUND MANAGEMENT!
[04:24] <gerro> jamman: where would I insert that into grubs menu.lst?
[04:24] <defrysk> ThanatosDrive, to linux And other osses ?
[04:24] <dfr> is 2.1 latest beryl version for ubuntu? I can't seem to find widget plugin in there (#beryl seem to be quiet :( )
[04:24] <Flannel> zerokill88: You'll use gcc, the question is which frontend you'll use with it.
[04:24] <r0b-> are linux games free?
[04:24] <ThanatosDrive> defrysk: Would that net you more than jsut selling to Windows? Think about the costs of programming the game for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
[04:24] <dodo> jamman: thanks
[04:24] <jamman> gerro, i beleve its on the SINGLE commented line that says something like "kopt= uuid=2398waejkawe"
[04:24] <elpha> anyone know anything about usb or usb hubs?
[04:24] <GigaClon> some are
[04:25] <dfr> scotty, I'm running WoW in the other window... what are you talking about? ;)
[04:25] <r0b-> if i steal a linux game will i get in trouble lol
[04:25] <ThanatosDrive> r0b-: Plenty! Look in Add/Remove Applications.
[04:25] <Flannel> r0b-: they don't have to be.  But there are a good portion of them that are FOSS
[04:25] <Flannel> !games
[04:25] <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
[04:25] <defrysk> Thaddeus, open source them , plenty volunteers to do that ;p
[04:25] <yrlnry_> The sound on my ubuntu laptop suddenly stopped working after several weeks of working flawlessly.  The master volume is at 100%.  When I go to the "sound preferences" dialog and select "test" for "sound playback", it gets stuck with the progress bar only 2 boxes finished, regardless of what sound system I select from the menu.
[04:25] <scotty> well when i play 1.6 via wine
[04:25] <yrlnry_> When I boot into windows, the sound is fine.
[04:25] <defrysk> anyway o.t.
[04:25] <yrlnry_> What might be the problem?
[04:25] <zerokill88> Flannel yes, what frontend will work with gcc, or at least a good frontend?
[04:25] <scotty> it locks up and i had to shutdown via pwrswtch
[04:25] <jamman> gerro, then do "sudo update-grub"
[04:25] <sgrillo> ciao, non visualizzo la connessione wlan in amministrazione/rete
[04:26] <scotty> doesnt always lockup

[04:26] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[04:26] <dfr> scotty, see, it has game support... just not perfect ;)
[04:26] <dfr> scotty, to be honest, I've been trying to get my CSS to work for some time, but didnt spend too much time on it yet.
[04:26] <Flannel> zerokill88: Lots of them do.  Uh, eclipse is one, Anjuta is another.
[04:26] <r0b-> airline tycoon has a linux version?
[04:26] <r0b-> :)
[04:27] <dfr> scotty, however, it's not working under vista either... so it's something weird in general
[04:27] <gerro> jamman: ah someone posted example of irq=poll on forum hmm part you mentioned of menu.lst is currently commented out for me
[04:27] <LOWLUX> what is a good pci Wireless card to use in linux to connect to a linksys routher?
[04:27] <GigaClon> zerokill88, i like SCIte its nice and lite but works well

[04:27] <raylu> r0b-, is it free?
[04:28] <r0b-> no its commercial
[04:28] <GigaClon> raylu DRoD is a great linux game
[04:29] <GigaClon> the program itself is free and you pay for content
[04:29] <GigaClon> there is also free content
[04:29] <magic_pinguim> there are secondlife to linux to
[04:29] <gerro> jamman: after I add irq=poll to end of that line do I have to type update-grub as root?
[04:29] <mrigns> what's DRoD?
[04:29] <GigaClon> drod.net
[04:29] <GigaClon> puzzle game
[04:29] <jamman> gerro, yes.
[04:29] <gerro> jamman: would rebooting do the same?
[04:30] <ThanatosDrive> I've run through the list of games, and it's plenty big and nice, but...does anyone suggest a rogue-like?
[04:30] <jamman> gerro, nope.
[04:31] <GigaClon> ThanatosDrive, search the repos there are like 2389945721 of them
[04:31] <scotty> hmmmmm,,,, i think ima make a music server for my dorm next year
[04:31] <ThanatosDrive> GigaClon: repos?

[04:34] <SurfnKid> Ive installed the ATI proprietary drivers for the X1300 graphics card inside a Dell Inspiron 6400, they are loaded, but when watching a movie on VLC or using the screensaver, the video output is weak, choppy and low quality
[04:34] <SurfnKid> any recommendations?
[04:34] <Anarch> Flannel: thanks
[04:35] <SurfnKid> tips or any help from anyone that has tried to get this problem fixed
[04:35] <Jaszbo> Hi room. Can anyone suggest a good video player for wmv files?
[04:35] <SurfnKid> Jaszbo, vlc
[04:35] <GigaClon> ph0enix, do you have a question about xchat
[04:35] <Jaszbo> OK. Thank you.
[04:35] <gerro> Jaszbo: gstreamer packages :)
[04:35] <dfr> scotty: sounds like one can. But I didnt get to it. I mean i can run it, but it doesnt detect sound.
[04:35] <ThanatosDrive> How can I tell if I am on universe or multiverse?
[04:35] <ph0enix> is xchat the best gui irc client?
[04:35] <Flannel> !best | ph0enix
[04:35] <ubotu> ph0enix: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[04:35] <dfr> scotty: i think my case might not be the typical one though.
[04:35] <ph0enix> I'm having a problem with DCC gets
[04:35] <ThanatosDrive> Or...is there a big different
[04:35] <ThanatosDrive> difference*?
[04:36] <gerro> ph0enix: irssi is pretty kool ;)
[04:36] <Jerome_> Does anyone know where you can find errors that are displayed on boot?
[04:36] <ph0enix> well I'm used to mIRC on windows
[04:36] <xtacocorex> nalioth, what's with your bot in #ubuntu-programming?
[04:36] <defrysk> Jerome_, dmesg
[04:36] <ph0enix> and I'm looking for an equivalent
[04:36] <raylu> ph0enix, did you use lots of scripts? or just regular chatting?
[04:36] <ThanatosDrive> !universe
[04:36] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[04:36] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: They're very different.  Completely different software.  You could check your sources.list, or if you've got a question as to whether a particular package is in universe or multiverse, you can check that through an apt frontend
[04:37] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: my sources.list?
[04:37] <ph0enix> mainly for downloading stuff
[04:37] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: /etc/apt/sources.list, it tells you where to look for the repositories
[04:37] <ph0enix> no scripts
[04:37] <raylu> ph0enix, so just dcc downloads?
[04:37] <GigaClon> ph0enix, then xchat should work
[04:38] <raylu> gaim/pidgin comes with ubuntu, i believe, and that has purpleirc
[04:38] <ph0enix> ok,
[04:38] <ph0enix> anything special I need to do to get DCC gets to work?
[04:38] <ph0enix> they just hang

[04:39] <ph0enix> efnet?  is this new?  I was never registered before
[04:39] <kdubois> how do you mount a usb drive so you can write to it?
[04:39] <raylu> inazad, probably an FTP server
[04:39] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: How does this tell me if I'm on universe or multiverse?
[04:39] <inazad> raylu, i know but wwhich deamon..
[04:39] <GigaClon> this isn't efnet ph0enix
[04:39] <xtacocorex> thought you were trying freenode ph0enix
[04:39] <ph0enix> no it isn't
[04:39] <inazad> raylu, it is vsftp or proftpd...
[04:39] <ph0enix> but I'm on efnet :-p
[04:39] <raylu> kdubois, doens' tit do that automatically?
[04:39] <inazad> raylu, how to know..
[04:40] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: Sorry about the stupid questions; I'm a bit new to Ubuntu.
[04:40] <jonalegend> kdubois_ depends on the filesystem of the memory
[04:40] <scotty> whats the best way to alt tab from a game in linux?
[04:40] <raylu> inazad, i don't think there's a way to tell
[04:40] <scotty> since its running in wine
[04:40] <GigaClon> ThanatosDrive, look for the words
[04:40] <SurfnKid> will someone shoot my laptop
[04:40] <SurfnKid> kthx
[04:40] <GigaClon> ThanatosDrive, also start up Synaptic, its a GUI interface to repos
[04:40] <jonalegend> if isn't ntfs use the option "-o rw,
[04:40] <defrysk> ThanatosDrive, you are on any repository that is needed for the package if they are set up in your sources.list
[04:40] <GigaClon> its under System / Admin
[04:40] <kdubois> jonalegend: yeah, its a fat system. i'll figure it out. i'm just feeling really lazy today :-D
[04:40] <gerro> jamman: turns out on menu.lst I have irq=poll at bottom by kernel images to load, however on forums people have said to use irqpoll
[04:40] <ThanatosDrive> GigaClon: I have synaptic open right now.
[04:41] <jamman> gerro, well, im not entiarly sure, so...
[04:41] <GigaClon> there should a menu item for repositories
[04:41] <phoenixz> xtacocorex: excuse me?
[04:41] <gerro> jamman: debating on if I should change irq=poll or just add irqpoll in
[04:41] <ph0enix> erm
[04:42] <jamman> gerro, try to change it.
[04:42] <ThanatosDrive> GigaClon: Okay. Looking at it now.
[04:42] <Rezzie> Is it possible to remove the associated GPG key if I remove a repository from ym sources.lst?
[04:42] <marnanel> Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does launchpad know about fast-user-switch-applet, and if not, where does apport for FUSA go?
[04:42] <Rezzie> (and is it even worth it)
[04:42] <jamman> gerro, if all else fails, change it back to the origianl at the boot propmt for grub.
[04:42] <GigaClon> ThanatosDrive, check the box that says (universe)
[04:42] <Jerome_> anyone with any ideas?
[04:42] <jcnorman> django
[04:42] <ThanatosDrive> GigaClon: You mena, uncheck it? Because all the boxes are already checked.
[04:43] <GigaClon> then don't
[04:43] <ph0enix> thanks for your help ops
[04:43] <GigaClon> you have universe enabled
[04:43] <ThanatosDrive> So I can run both multiverse and universe?
[04:43] <GigaClon> just search for rouge-like
[04:43] <gerro> jamman: I left the recovery mode settings alone
[04:43] <defrysk> ThanatosDrive, yes
[04:43] <jamman> gerro, not a bad idea.
[04:44] <ahorner> whats the wine package name
[04:44] <elpha> anyone know how to run a process continously?

[04:44] <defrysk> ThanatosDrive, and actually you should
[04:44] <Justi1> how do I install a rpm.bin?
[04:45] <defrysk> Justi1, rpm.bin ? what package ?
[04:45] <Justi1> java
[04:45] <jonalegend> justil_ what do you mean a .rpm or a .bin?
[04:45] <defrysk> Justi1, use the ubuntu package for java
[04:45] <defrysk> !java
[04:45] <astro76> elpha, if you're looking to monitor a log file you can use tail -f
[04:45] <Justi1> sorry its .bin
[04:45] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:45] <elpha> astro76: cool
[04:46] <ThanatosDrive> defrysk: What do you mean by that?
[04:46] <jonalegend> also the java web site has a .bin for JRE v6
[04:46] <defrysk> ThanatosDrive, you should activate both
[04:47] <raylu> can anyone help me set group permissions on an ntfs mount?

[04:47] <GigaClon> ThanatosDrive, you have both the way it should be just do a search for rouge-like
[04:47] <kdubois> jonalegend: the little write lock switch was on... haha
[04:47] <raylu> ckblackm, ifconfig?
[04:47] <jonalegend> raylu_ so far i know if you mount an NTFS filesystem as rw, it is only for the root
[04:48] <raylu> jonalegend, right....which is why I want to know how to allow multiple users to access it
[04:48] <ckblackm> you want me to paste it to the webpage, raylu?
[04:48] <raylu> jonalegend, i've figured out that -o uid=1000 let's me access it, but group always has 0
[04:48] <jonalegend> the version of ntfs-3g that a got do not allow me to import permisions

[04:56] <bruenig> HackSign, ubuntu like other like minded retarded distros decide to split include files, so you will need to install something-dev
[04:56] <Kilgariff> I'm starting to like that bot...
[04:56] <sfreak> BillyBeans, try typing "locate mutt" or "which mutt" on the command line without the quotes
[04:56] <bruenig> xlibs-dev perhaps
[04:56] <HackSign> ok xlibs-dev
[04:56] <HackSign> i'll try
[04:57] <nelsonuwp> so, I reinstalled ubuntu before i left for the weekend and forgot the password I set
[04:57] <nelsonuwp> is there a way i can retrieve it or do I need to reinstall?
[04:58] <dr_willis> nelsonuwp,  this ios linux - thers always a way.. now IF you want tolearn how to do it.. is the next part. :)
[04:58] <defrysk> HackSign, apt-get build dep <package you are trying to compile> to get the needed dependencies for a to compile package
[04:58] <dr_willis> nelsonuwp,  boot live cd, chroot to installed system. use passwd command. is one way.
[04:58] <ThanatosDrive> What's the difference (In Synaptic) between Complete Removal, and Removal?
[04:58] <scoobydoo28139> Isn't this the help channel?
[04:58] <nelsonuwp> dr_willis, not quite sure what you mean chroot to installed system
[04:58] <dr_willis> ThanatosDrive,  one removes all configs.
[04:59] <dr_willis> nelsonuwp,  thats where the learning part comes in. :)
[04:59] <nelsonuwp> dr_willis: well im all ears
[04:59] <dr_willis> nelsonuwp,  You may want to do some reading. Theres a lot of little gotyas to watch out for.  Dont expect a magicial command or 2.
[04:59] <HackSign> defrysk i downloaded a theme file on kde-look,when i run ./configure it tell me i need xlib
[04:59] <dr_willis> nelsonuwp,  plus its somthing ive4 not had to do in ages. so i dont have the steps memorused.
[05:00] <bruenig> HackSign, apt-cache search xlib
[05:00] <h4ngedm4n> nelsonuwp: basically what you are trying to do is set a new password
[05:00] <madmax> If the gnome terminal is crashing before I ever see a window, where would I find a log that might tell me why?
[05:00] <HackSign> a it willreturm many items
[05:00] <bruenig> HackSign, look for one that ends in -dev
[05:00] <defrysk> HackSign, apt-cache search xlib and look for some -dev packages concerning xlib and install them
[05:00] <nelsonuwp> h4ngedm4n: ok yes, exactly what im trying to do
[05:00] <HackSign> ok
[05:00] <HackSign> tks
[05:01] <wifenfeffer> how do I make ubuntu act as a Bluetooth Printer so I can send images from my phone to my computer ?
[05:01] <dr_willis> I wonder if im the only person that uses  one of a few select passwords...
[05:01] <bruenig> I thought this was supposed to be newb friendly, splitting includes is not newb friendly
[05:01] <defrysk> HackSign, its a matter of trial and error , be patient with searching and trying
[05:01] <wifenfeffer> dr_willis, most people only have a select handfull of passwords to choose from
[05:01] <Stormx2> How do I start X after it failed to load initially? (I've tweaked the config files)
[05:01] <dr_willis> wifenfeffer,  then thers always 'password' :)
[05:01] <astro76> madmax, you could try running it from xterm
[05:01] <bruenig> Stormx2, startx
[05:01] <h4ngedm4n> nelsonuwp: so once you boot the live cd, mount your root partition, you chroot to that root partition. from there the passwd command will override the entry in /etc/shadow
[05:01] <wifenfeffer> dr_willis, that's a common one
[05:01] <capo> anyone know good dock? kiba wont let me drag icons onto it for some reason
[05:02] <towlieban> i am prompted for the password to unlock the default keyring but i never set a password. does anyone know what it is
[05:02] <dr_willis> wifenfeffer,  :)
[05:02] <dr_willis> towlieban,  its your users password by default i belive
[05:02] <madmax> astro76:  xterm crashes too, and I'm not sure why.  It started happening after I changed some setting inside my xorg.conf
[05:02] <towlieban> dr_willis i tried that but it didnt work
[05:02] <nelsonuwp> h4ngedm4n: how do I mount it?
[05:02] <defrysk> capo, alltray is my favorite docker
[05:02] <wifenfeffer> madmax, so roll back your xorg.conf
[05:02] <ckblackm> Anybody have time to take a look at my wireless setup?  I've posted info about it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499350
[05:03] <h4ngedm4n> nelsonuwp: via the mount command, what else?:)  but go do some googling and find your self a walkthrough
[05:03] <madmax> astro76:  tried that too, doesnt help.  The terminal program starts loading, and then silently crashes about 30 seconds after that
[05:03] <bruenig> ckblackm, if you care for any general help you need to load the driver
[05:03] <towlieban> can anyone help me ? I am prompted for the password to unlock the default keyring but i never set a password. does anyone know what it is
[05:03] <bullgard4> The term 'lm-sensors' seems to have 2 different meanings as Synaptics writes: "Lm-sensors is a hardware health monitoring package for Linux. It allows you to access information from temperature, voltage, and fan speed sensors. It works with most newer systems. The DEB program package 'lm-sensors' contains programs to help you set up and read data from lm-sensors. You will need lm-sensors and i2c kernel modules to use the DEB program packag
[05:04] <bruenig> towlieban, does your password not work
[05:04] <capo> but alltray puts the icons in the system tray.  isnt there one that is like apple's dock besides kiba?
[05:04] <blackmamba> bwahahahahaha. okay, so before i couldn't get my refresh rate to go to 75Hz, right? well now, hahaha, well now i can't get my desktop resolution to go to 1440x900. it's set that way in xorg.conf, but the screen resolution dialog box has a ton of other resolutions. i'm using fglrx
[05:04] <hackart> see
[05:04] <towlieban> bruenig no
[05:04] <blackmamba> on an ati radeon x700
[05:04] <BillyBeans> so is anyone running mutt?
[05:04] <ckblackm> bluenig: what driver are you  referring to?
[05:05] <bruenig> towlieban, I would try to figure out where gnome-keyring puts it stuff and start deleting or changing configuration files
[05:05] <strabes_> is there a way to prevent multiple instances of a program (gaim)
[05:05] <dr_willis> strabes_,  some programs have that feature built in, but never seen a generic way to do it.
[05:05] <bruenig> !info gnome-keyring
[05:05] <ubotu> gnome-keyring: GNOME keyring services (daemon and tools). In component main, is optional. Version 0.8.1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 68 kB, installed size 1572 kB
[05:05] <ahorner> how do i specify a folder that has a space in the name in terminal
[05:05] <towlieban> bruenig i figured it out. how do i change my keyring password ?
[05:05] <dr_willis> ahorner,  'use quotes'
[05:05] <astro76> bullgard4, one of the suggests for lm-sensors is sensord, that's what it should be referring to
[05:05] <ckblackm> bruenig: what driver are you referring to?
[05:05] <ahorner> umm
[05:05] <bruenig> towlieban, what do you mean you figured it out
[05:06] <BillyBeans> im trying to edit a file call .muttrc, for mutt has anyone done this before?
[05:06] <dr_willis> ahorner,  try the <tab> key to complete the name.
[05:06] <towlieban> bruenig i pasted my wpa password unitentionally not realizing it was the keyring password
[05:06] <ahorner> its /ect/blah/blah/file name/something.file
[05:06] <ahorner> but with the space it does it as two commands
[05:06] <bruenig> ckblackm, I told you the advice was general, the most likely reason it doesn't show it as having wireless extensions is because whatever driver that is needed isn't loaded
[05:06] <dr_willis> ahorner,  use quotes, or escape the space.
[05:06] <ahorner> oh ok thx
[05:07] <defrysk> ahorner a space is a \  and use the tab button for autocomplete
[05:07] <BillyBeans> im trying to edit a file call .muttrc, for mutt has anyone done this before?
[05:07] <bruenig> towlieban, I don't know how to change it, I try to keep away from that gnome stuff
[05:07] <bullgard4> astro76: What does your noun 'suggest' mean? I only know a verb 'suggest'.
[05:07] <archoniam> Hi, i hate to ask it, but is there any flavor of Linux let alone Ubuntu that can run Shockwave? (Yes, i am considering switching flavors just because of shockwave.
[05:07] <bruenig> gnome-keyring is pretty much the sole reason I am not using networkmanager
[05:07] <dr_willis> BillyBeans,  it shoiudl just ne a text file.. edit it with a editor.
[05:07] <bruenig> archoniam, no
[05:07] <blackmamba> are the desktop resolutions for the ati proprietary drivers set in a different configuration file than xorg.conf?
[05:07] <bruenig> archoniam, wine
[05:07] <ahorner> sigh im back
[05:07] <BillyBeans> where is it?
[05:08] <ahorner> now how do i move a file from one place to another in terminal
[05:08] <ckblackm> bruenig: lsmod shows that it's loading the prism2 driver, is there some other driver I would need?
[05:08] <bruenig> ahorner, mv file newfile
[05:08] <ahorner> ty lol
[05:08] <astro76> bullgard4, as in packages have depends, suggests, recommended, conflicts, etc...
[05:08] <archoniam> bruenig: So, just download shockwave for windows and install shockwave in wine?
[05:08] <dr_willis> Time to read a few bash tutorials. :)
[05:08] <andrew____> how do I access my firefox plugins directory?
[05:08] <bruenig> archoniam, shockwave is a browser plugin right?
[05:08] <bruenig> andrew____, /usr//lib/firefox/plugins
[05:09] <andrew____> thanks
[05:09] <bruenig> take out one of those /
[05:09] <mythtv> archoniam, is this a 64 bit os?
[05:09] <capo> anyone know any good docks like kiba?
[05:09] <andrew____> thats what i thought thanks
[05:09] <bullgard4> astro76: So I will keep trying to understand your message using the hint you gave. Thank you.
[05:09] <who_cares> what's the path for the folder image that gnome shows?
[05:10] <fevel> hey guys...the new azureus on windows has awesome built in content
[05:10] <bruenig> archoniam, if I am correct about that (why you don't answer is baffling) then you would want to install windows firefox through wine and then use windows firefox to install it
[05:10] <fevel> how come my ubuntus azureus doesnt?
[05:10] <archoniam> bruenig: No i
[05:10] <dr_willis> fevel,  because its older - would be my guess
[05:10] <mythtv> archoniam, if it's a 64 bit os it wont work
[05:10] <astro76> bullgard4, right click in synaptic, and it will be under a submenu named suggests
[05:10] <bruenig> mythtv, flash != shockwave
[05:10] <defrysk> fevel, ask in #azureus
[05:11] <SurfnKid> Hi guys, Im having a weird problem with Edgy and Feisty doesnt seem to boot to LIVE CD properly (X doesnt start)
[05:11] <bruenig> fevel, it is likely that ubuntu has an old version of azureus
[05:11] <fevel> dr_willis: oh...I see...is there a way to install the ultra latest packages through the repositories??
[05:11] <astro76> bullgard4, also in the properties under depends tab
[05:11] <SurfnKid> so Im on Edgy now with the ATI proprietary driver, but my video is choppy and my rendering says 'yes'
[05:11] <bruenig> fevel, ubuntu is not too big on latest applications
[05:11] <StR> hey how do i installed this libraries "/seamonkey-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0:
[05:11] <dr_willis> fevel,  through the repos.. if they are not in the repos.. No.
[05:11] <fevel> bruenig: why is that??
[05:11] <bruenig> !find libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
[05:11] <madmax> bah, its still happening.  I went back to my original xorg.conf file, and the gnome terminal started working again.  When I reconfigured my xorg.conf file again, the terminal started crashing again
[05:11] <dr_willis> fevel,  ubuntu dosent do the 'cutting edge' stuff. :) there may be some alternetive repos out.
[05:11] <bruenig> fevel, just aren't
[05:11] <ubotu> File libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 found in libgtk2.0-0, vmware-player
[05:12] <fevel> some safety reasons??
[05:12] <dr_willis> fevel,  go download it and  install it as a user, for a specific user. is what ya could do
[05:12] <bruenig> StR, you see that, libgtk2.0-0
[05:12] <StR> so sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0
[05:12] <StR> ?
[05:12] <madmax> when it crashes, it does so silently.  I thikn it has something to do with my xorg.conf file, but I dont know what
[05:12] <conorkirkpatrick> I am reading over how to install Ubuntu over SSH, and I found this in one of the example config files: "braodcast 10.0.0.255" is it supposed to be "braodcast"?
[05:13] <dr_willis> broadcast
[05:13] <alecw1> !language archoniam
[05:13] <bruenig> archoniam, you may wish to answer some questions when asked, when you say shockwave do you mean the plugin
[05:13] <conorkirkpatrick> dr_willis: Thnx, I suppose I found a typo on this page then: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH
[05:14] <bullgard4> astro76: Yes, I have found an entry in my German vesion of Synaptic which could probably translate to English 'suggests'. -- Thank you.
[05:14] <bruenig> got to love it when the idiots come in here and ask questions and then don't want answers
[05:14] <scotty> whats the best media player for linux
[05:14] <scotty> as ion music
[05:14] <defrysk> bruenig, please be polite
[05:14] <dr_willis> bruenig,  or get mad when you point them to the proper documention.
[05:15] <dr_willis> which is what i try to do
[05:15] <bruenig> !best | scotty
[05:15] <ubotu> scotty: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:15] <madmax> where can I find the log file for the gnome terminal?
[05:15] <bruenig> perhaps I should have pointed him to this when he asked for shockwave in linux: http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?linuxswp
[05:15] <BillyBeans> does anyone in hear know the location of the MUTT .muttrc config file, i cant find it!!
[05:15] <ahorner> how can i seed up the framerate of a game im playing under wine (its like .01 fps
[05:15] <dr_willis> madmax,  there may be a /var/log/x????? log
[05:15] <andrew____> this is what happened after i tried to install java
[05:15] <astro76> conorkirkpatrick, fixed :)
[05:15] <andrew____> bash: /usr/java/j2rel.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so: No such file or directory
[05:15] <andrew____> suggestions?
[05:16] <scotty> well what are soem good ones
[05:16] <madmax> dr_willis: no such luck
[05:16] <dr_willis> madmax,  could always exit to single user mode and just do 'startx' - This is about the xterm/gnometerminal crashing?
[05:16] <Justi1> where can I install plugins so totem can play dvd's?

[05:16] <milllmannn> where is MYSQL installed when using apt-get?
[05:16] <bruenig> milllmannn, dpkg -L mysql
[05:17] <dr_willis> milllmannn,  you expecting an icon?
[05:17] <bruenig> or whatever its called
[05:17] <madmax> dr_willis:  yeah, but I think I've got the wrong name, I dont mean xserver or GDM, I mean the actual gnome command line program
[05:17] <scotty> !best
[05:17] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:17] <milllmannn> it says its not installed...
[05:17] <milllmannn> but i know it is
[05:17] <andrew____> this is what happened after i tried to install java
[05:17] <dr_willis> madmax,  if xterm is crashing.. you got somthing seriously wrong.
[05:17] <andrew____> bash: /usr/java/j2rel.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so: No such file or directory
[05:17] <milllmannn> because i just installed it
[05:17] <andrew____> suggestions?
[05:17] <bruenig> !info mysql
[05:17] <ubotu> Package mysql does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:17] <astro76> madmax, gnome-terminal
[05:17] <dr_willis> milllmannn,  restart the mysql service
[05:17] <bruenig> milllmannn, what is the real name of the package
[05:17] <dr_willis> !find mysql
[05:18] <bruenig> milllmannn, use that instead of mysql
[05:18] <BillyBeans> does anyone in hear know the location of the MUTT .muttrc config file, i cant find it!!
[05:18] <ubotu> Found: libapache2-mod-auth-mysql, libdbd-mysql-perl, libmysql-java, libmysqlclient15-dev, libmysqlclient15off (and 82 others)
[05:18] <dr_willis> BillyBeans,  if it exists.. in the users home dir.
[05:18] <dr_willis> BillyBeans,  may be a system wide default in /etc/ or similer examples.
[05:18] <defrysk> andrew____, tried the ubuntu package for java ?
[05:18] <madmax> dr_willis:  It has something to do with my video configuration.  If I go back to my original xorg.conf, the gnome-terminal(thanks astro) will work just fine, once I modify my xorg.conf to the way I want it, the gnome-terminal wont run
[05:19] <andrew____> what do you mean?  its not on add/remove
[05:19] <dr_willis> madmax,  im curuis as to what you are changing.
[05:19] <defrysk> !java | andrew
[05:19] <ubotu> andrew: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:19] <bruenig> yet again, add/remove should not be installed by default, look at what it does
[05:20] <madmax> dr_willis: The default config just has one monitor.  I use 3 monitors that are spaced between 2 geforce 7800 GT's, I'm sure the config is good because currently, all 3 monitors are up and working as they should be
[05:20] <madmax> dr_willis: Every other program I can think of works just fine, except for the gnome-terminal program
[05:20] <dr_willis> madmax,  there might be a log file in the users home dir. cant say that ive noticed lately however.
[05:20] <Justi1> when I type 'sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh' in terminal, it says 'sudo: /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh: command not found'. How can I fix this?
[05:20] <dr_willis> madmax,  i though you said xterm crashed also?
[05:21] <bruenig> Justi1, have you installed libdvdread
[05:21] <dr_willis> madmax,  could be the gnome-terminal is getting confused by the desktop settings, twinview/xinerama stuff perhaps.
[05:21] <Radio> s hmmm
[05:21] <Justi1> bruenig: I installed libdvddread3
[05:21] <madmax> dr_willis: I mentioned earlier I think I had the wrong name.  X works just fine, full 3D acceleration, I can even play even online
[05:21] <Radio> what is Samba used for?
[05:21] <bruenig> Justi1, also whatever guide you are following that tells you to do that is old, just install libdvdcss yourself
[05:21] <dr_willis> !samba
[05:21] <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
[05:21] <bruenig> probably ubuntuguide.org that piece of garbage
[05:21] <madmax> dr_willis: Its just the gnome-terminal program that crashes

[05:23] <andrew____> java is on the computer, its just not plugged into firefox.  what now?
[05:23] <ubotu> justi1: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[05:23] <Radio> thx dr_willis
[05:23] <dr_willis> Justi1,  you need to set up the seveas Repsoitories..
[05:23] <Radio> how can i disable it?
[05:24] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, enabled by default, universe doesn't even contain that package
[05:24] <Justi1> oh okay
[05:24] <conorkirkpatrick> Bruenig: ok
[05:24] <bruenig> Justi1, ubout keeps telling you where to find it
[05:24] <madmax> dr_willis: If there was a log entry from gnome-terminal, where would it most likely be?  /var/log/?
[05:24] <dr_willis> Radio,  its not installed by default.. so it shouldnt be enabled.
[05:24] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: Temporary failure resolving 'archive.ubuntu.com' (Does Ubuntu have any down servers?)
[05:24] <Radio> hmm
[05:24] <dr_willis> madmax,  dont expect one for just that program. there 'should' be some X logs about.
[05:24] <andrew____> I have java on the computer, but I cant get Firefox to accept it
[05:24] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, you mean mirrors and it is possible
[05:24] <Radio> my firewall keeps on picking it up though :/
[05:25] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: are there any mirrors of that server? I am trying to do an SSH install
[05:25] <bruenig> andrew____, is the plugin in the firefox plugin directory
[05:25] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, which mirror is it,
[05:25] <dr_willis> madmax, ls -l /var/log/Xorg.0.log         -- is mine
[05:25] <andrew____> let me check, i dont think so
[05:25] <Nubbie> hey guys, i have a presentation to do tomorrow, i just want to know if i'll be able to use a projector no problem with feisty running intel drivers.
[05:25] <madmax> dr_willis: I checked the X log, and the sys log too, nothing that I can see
[05:25] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: http://archive.ubuntu.com/
[05:25] <madmax> dr_willis: jsut a sec
[05:25] <dr_willis> madmax,  run the gnome treminal program from a xterm. :)
[05:25] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, that appears to be up, the problem is on your end
[05:25] <madmax> dr_willis: bah, cant get into the terminal to run that
[05:26] <dr_willis> xterm and rxvt is our friend.. :)
[05:26] <dr_willis> 'twin' is fun to use as a terminal program also
[05:26] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, you can always put a country code before archive. like us.archive or uk.archive
[05:26] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: Okay, although, what could be wrong? It has functional internet, (IE: I can Wget things)
[05:26] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: K, I will try that
[05:26] <bruenig> it did say temporary...
[05:26] <Zieen> OK so my Ubuntu keeps locking up
[05:26] <conorkirkpatrick> yes :D
[05:26] <Zieen> Is there a log file I should be checking to find out why?
[05:26] <andrew____> how do I view the plugin directory?
[05:27] <Nubbie> zieen: but why?
[05:27] <bruenig> andrew____, /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[05:27] <Zieen> Nubbie: I don't know why my Ubuntu keeps locking up.  It just does.
[05:27] <Nubbie> zieen: are you using compiz/beryl?
[05:27] <Zieen> Nope.  Last night I had a fresh x64 install and tonight I'm using Wubi.
[05:27] <Zieen> and last night I was locking up too... I should have mentioned that.
[05:27] <andrew____> it tells me that it is a directory, nothing more
[05:28] <Justi1> what sections should I enable for seveas?
[05:28] <dr_willis> Zieen,  try a normal 32bit install yet?
[05:28] <bruenig> andrew____, that is where the plugin needs to be
[05:28] <dr_willis> !easysource
[05:28] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:28] <andrew____> bash: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins: is a directory
[05:28] <milllmannn> using apt-get, where are things installed typically?
[05:28] <madmax> dr_willis: What am I looking for after running that command?
[05:28] <andrew____> how does one get it there? ive done everything the guides have told me
[05:28] <bruenig> andrew____, if you had installed the plugin via package management it would already be in there, right it is a directory, the directory that contains the plugin
[05:28] <Nubbie> !envy > Nubbie
[05:28] <Zieen> dr_willis, I don't want to do a normal install as I don't like to partition my only drive and I need windows for work.  I'm on a 32-bit install now, but it's wubi.
[05:29] <bruenig> andrew____, how did you install java
[05:29] <dr_willis> madmax,  run the gnome terminal program from a xterm or rxvt and if it crashes it SHOULD print out some sort of info/error message
[05:29] <Zieen> I experienced a lot of problems with my video card, I think that may have something to do with it all.
[05:29] <dr_willis> Zieen,  good luck then. :) May want to just use vmware-server. might work better, no clue on wubi.
[05:29] <madmax> dr_willis: The program 'gnome-terminal' received an X Window System error.
[05:29] <madmax> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[05:29] <madmax> The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
[05:29] <madmax>   (Details: serial 105 error_code 2 request_code 78 minor_code 0)
[05:29] <madmax>   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
[05:29] <madmax>    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
[05:29] <madmax>    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
[05:29] <zero-9376> anyone know of a tool I can use to log all my terminal activity to a text file
[05:29] <madmax>    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
[05:30] <madmax>    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

[05:30] <Zieen> dr_willis: OK thanks.  I'll check with some friends ;-)
[05:30] <dr_willis> madmax,  i never said id know what the errors ment. :)
[05:30] <andrew____> should it be telling me the contents of the directory?
[05:30] <andrew____> I     apt-get install java-package
[05:30] <madmax> dr_willis: bah!  btw, was I not supposed to do that?
[05:30] <mhz`> ?
[05:31] <rob> madmax, no

[05:31] <ubotu> madmax: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:31] <rob> use that instead
[05:31] <dr_willis> madmax,  it was a useless flood of overkill information.. that said very little. :) other then 'it crashed'

[05:31] <mhz`> they need to speed up defragging
[05:31] <mhz`> this blows
[05:31] <andrew____> this is how i got it, my bad
[05:32] <andrew____> sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[05:32] <bruenig> andrew____, ok that is not java that is some debian packaging utility
[05:32] <bruenig> oh
[05:32] <dr_willis> madmax,  coult try gnome-terminal --help and learn its command line options. there MAY be some optuions taht might kick it in the head..
[05:32] <dr_willis> madmax,  or install some other terminal apps and use them
[05:32] <conorkirkpatrick> bruenig: is there a command to send a file over the network to a certain IP?
[05:32] <dr_willis> !find Terminal
[05:32] <ubotu> Found: gnome-terminal, gnome-terminal-data, xfce4-terminal, xterm, aterm (and 28 others)
[05:32] <bruenig> andrew____, that is for compiling java programs not for running
[05:32] <andrew____> oh okay
[05:32] <andrew____> so what do I run to get it
[05:32] <bruenig> andrew____, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin
[05:32] <andrew____> alright thanks
[05:32] <andrew____> anything more after that?
[05:32] <Jamesinator> Where are my bash history files kept?
[05:32] <imbecile> what does "ipw3945 maximum thermal spin reached" mean? i believe it means my nic card got to hot and destroyed but am curious if anyone may know if i am correct
[05:32] <jamman> your gay
[05:33] <mhz`> Jamesinator, .bash_history

[05:34] <Justi1> do I need libdvdcss2-dev ?
[05:34] <astro76> no
[05:34] <andrew____> how would I uninstall that other thing i downloaded bruenig?
[05:34] <khermans> Radio, aptitude show <package>
[05:34] <Justi1> "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh" still isn't working
[05:34] <bruenig> andrew____, sudo apt-get remove java-package
[05:34] <conorkirkpatrick> Does anybody know of a command to send a file to an ip on the internel network?

[05:37] <BillyBeans> PLEASe help me, does anyone in hear use mutt to read their email????
[05:37] <Malachi> Flash Player 9 crashes when I do a certain task. Anyway I can switch to a different version?
[05:37] <khermans> bruenig, how do i reinstall all currently installed applications in the feisty archive?
[05:37] <dhng> Does anyone know how to enable wireless on a laptop after hibernation?
[05:37] <bruenig> khermans, something with dpkg --get-selections or some such
[05:37] <Nubbie> hey guys, i found the solution to my problem, about the dual screen / projector... i installed i810switch, killed x, and it instantly started working! i'm very happy, but I wish this package were included with ubuntu.
[05:37] <conorkirkpatrick> Does anybody know of a command to send a file to an ip on the internel network?
[05:37] <khermans> bruenig, yes what is that such
[05:37] <sharp15> what does ubuntu use for configuration of alsa sound drivers?  apparently it's not alsaconf.
[05:38] <bruenig> khermans, well I don't use ubuntu or debian so I don't have it in front of me
[05:38] <khermans> bruenig, why are you in #ubuntu
[05:38] <Jamesinator> !networking > jamesinator
[05:38] <madmax> dr_willis: its just getting worse, I found a couple of commands that allow you to specify which screen or display to start gnome-terminal, but the errors multiply from that point on
[05:38] <khermans> bruenig, your suggestion is incorrect though
[05:38] <bruenig> khermans, the users need help more than any other channel, you go into the channels of other distros outside of gentoo and nobody really appears to need help
[05:38] <conorkirkpatrick> Does anybody know of a command to send a file to an ip on the internel network?
[05:38] <Nubbie> conorkirkpatrick: it would need to be over a protocol (ftp, nfs, whatever) and the receiving computer would need to authenticate you to receive the file.
[05:39] <kr00lplatinum> anyone know how to get teamspeak2 working so i can talk?
[05:39] <bruenig> khermans, I have seen it before, --get-selections and then --set-selections
[05:39] <Flannel> !cloning | khermans, bruenig
[05:39] <ubotu> khermans, bruenig: 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
[05:39] <bruenig> you need to redirecto to a text file and then use that text file later in --set-selections
[05:39] <bruenig> hmmm
[05:39] <khermans> Flannel, i am not cloning
[05:39] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: Try an openssh server on the receiving IP and use sshfs to mount it as a virtual directory tree on your local system
[05:39] <conorkirkpatrick> Nubbie: Have any idea of a protocol from an Ubuntu box to Mac OS X (BSD?)
[05:39] <dhng> Linux is so flaky, I thought using  manufacturer-supported hardware would solve all my problems
[05:39] <khermans> bruenig, thats not what i asked
[05:39] <Justi1> when I try to play a dvd, gxine says "No demuxer found - stream format not recognised."
[05:39] <bruenig> khermans, it is
[05:40] <dhng> turns out it's still crap
[05:40] <imbecile> what does "ipw3945 maximum thermal spin reached" mean? i believe it means my nic card got to hot and destroyed but am curious if anyone may know if i am correct
[05:40] <khermans> bruenig, Flannel, i asked how to reinstall all currently installed applications only in the feisty repository
[05:40] <bruenig> khermans, just skip the part where it says to move my-packages
[05:40] <Flannel> khermans: I know.  That's the command he's looking for though.  Why are you loking to reinstall all your packages?
[05:40] <Nubbie> conorkirkpatrick: i think you can install nfs in OSX, i dunno for sure, i've hardly even used a mac, let alone dig around the guts of it.
[05:40] <khermans> Flannel, bruenig, sorry it seems this is what i want --> aptitude reinstall ~i~Afeisty
[05:40] <conorkirkpatrick> Nubbie: It is just BSD
[05:40] <conorkirkpatrick> :D
[05:41] <bruenig> khermans, same thing
[05:41] <khermans> bruenig, no it is not
[05:41] <bruenig> tis
[05:41] <khermans> bruenig, no it is not
[05:41] <bruenig> tis
[05:41] <Jamesinator> khermans, bruenig, can you please take that to a query?
[05:41] <madmax> So heres another newb question, I've never submitted a bug before, how do I do so?
[05:41] <khermans> bruenig, i dont want things in feisty-updates
[05:41] <Justi1> gxine says "No demuxer found - stream format not recognised." when I play a dvd. how can I fix this?
[05:41] <conorkirkpatrick> madmax: #ubuntu+1 i think
[05:41] <khermans> or even feisty-security
[05:41] <khermans> or other repositories
[05:41] <Nubbie> conorkirkpatrick: if i were you, i'd install gnome in your OSX. wouldn't that be fun?
[05:42] <khermans> just feisty
[05:42] <madmax> thanks
[05:42] <khermans> bruenig, so your command is wrong

[05:42] <khermans> anyways, thanks for trying
[05:42] <bruenig> works the same, I just tried the two simultaneously in my virtual machines
[05:42] <Justi1> !gxine
[05:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gxine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:42] <bruenig> they did the same thing

[05:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:42] <blackmamba> so if i set my available resolutions to "1440x900" in xorg.conf and the screen resolution dialog gives me a bunch of 4:3 aspect ratio resolutions as options and forces me to use 4:3 aspect ratio, what do i do? using fglrx drivers on a radeon x700
[05:42] <khermans> bruenig, no they do not, that will also include outside repositories
[05:43] <conorkirkpatrick> Nubbie: I have tried, I can still run gnome-session, but it says some weird error, it has been a while :D (I use X11 on OSX)
[05:43] <bruenig> khermans, I just did them both in my virtual machines, you can't argue with that
[05:43] <conorkirkpatrick> Nubbie: Which means I could install... Beryl
[05:43] <scotty> scotty_: Stay off my nicks.
[05:43] <khermans> bruenig, yes i dont believe you
[05:43] <Dinde> Hi, i tried this parameters -> acpi=off acpi=noirq pci=off pnpbios=off and i tried to disable quick boot, same hell it freezes when kernel is loading ... i also tried to pass floppy=thinkpad (hardware = thinkpad x60, ubuntu 7.04 (feisty)) if anyone have any idea ...
[05:43] <madmax> #1 Bug on bugs.ubuntu.com:  Microsoft has a majority share....
[05:43] <Dinde> :'(
[05:43] <madmax> hehe
[05:43] <bruenig> khermans, well I did, I mean anyone can say that, you try it
[05:43] <bruenig> it does the same thing
[05:44] <khermans> bruenig, no it does not
[05:44] <khermans> bruenig, how can i make this clear
[05:44] <bruenig> I just did it
[05:44] <bruenig> how can I make that clearer
[05:44] <khermans> bruenig, add in an external repository
[05:44] <Flannel> Alright, guys, you disagree, it's no big deal.
[05:44] <bruenig> this guy must just be trolling
[05:44] <khermans> bruenig, then do the same, it will reinstall applications from your external repos
[05:44] <bruenig> it didn't
[05:45] <khermans> bruenig, aptitude is the only way
[05:45] <defrysk> khermans, bruenig /join #yes-no
[05:45] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: sudo apt-get install sshfs ; sshfs user@host:remotedir localdir
[05:45] <Dinde> Does anyone has this problem : It freeze on Loading /casper/initrd.gz..... when you try ton install Ubuntu -_-
[05:46] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: If you have an SSH server running on the system you're trying to transfer files between, sshfs will let you mount a virtual directory tree at localdir over SSH
[05:46] <bruenig> hard to argue against evidence, I guess you can just say "well I don't believe the evidence" but I just tried it on vm and it worked same
[05:47] <saxonjf> I installed pidgen, and I want to get rid of Gaim via synaptic, it tells me I have to remove "ubuntu-desktop."  Is there a workaround?
[05:47] <defrysk> saxonjf, no
[05:47] <khermans> bruenig, i also just tried --> # dpkg --get-selections | wc -l ==1390 packages *BUT* aptitude reinstall ~i~Afeisty == 1386
[05:47] <Dr_Willis_Hidden> saxonjf,  donbt worry about it.. either leave it in.. or remove ubuntu-desktop. its a metapackage
[05:48] <khermans> bruenig, did i make my point?
[05:48] <bruenig> khermans, oh aptitude missed some of them, that's cool, aptitude is known to be flaky, it actually worked on mine though, aptitude craps out on occasion
[05:48] <saxonjf> So there's no danger of erasing the whole desktop in doing that, DR?
[05:48] <andrew____> hey does anyone run linux on their ipod?
[05:48] <khermans> bruenig, no aptitude did not miss any
[05:48] <dhng> how do I swtich from a wired connection to a wireless one?
[05:49] <bruenig> khermans, it did on yours not mine though, that same command gives me 1276 for both
[05:49] <bruenig> it breaks down sometimes
[05:49] <khermans> bruenig, in fact aptitude picked exactly the right applications, whereas dpkg --get-selections got them all, even non-feisty packages, which is wrong
[05:49] <dhng> /whoami
[05:49] <khermans> bruenig, my point is not to reinstall all aplications, only applications in the feisty repository
[05:49] <khermans> bruenig, i dont want to reinstall applications from external repositories
[05:49] <bruenig> khermans, right works the same on both, its cool though, if you want to just troll in here spouting nonsense, your right to do so
[05:50] <khermans> bruenig, this is not nonsense, dude, just chill ... you made a mistake its cool
[05:50] <khermans> bruenig, i forgive you
[05:50] <ste-foy> Hello
[05:51] <Hail_Spacecake> for some reason I just booted into a console as root
[05:51] <bruenig> khermans, chill? I am quite chill, you are the one trolling with crazy nonsense, I just did them both simultaneously on my beowulf cluster vm and they work the same
[05:51] <Hail_Spacecake> instead of the x windows login box
[05:51] <bruenig> khermans, I will try to see what screwed up on aptitude for you and submit the patch upstream
[05:51] <bruenig> good find
[05:51] <Hail_Spacecake> how do I restart x windows?
[05:51] <khermans> bruenig, did you add an external repository?
[05:51] <dhng> hail_spacecake: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[05:51] <bruenig> we should probably !offtopic this
[05:52] <bullgard4> lsmod lists 102 modules. Do they include the modules which Synaptic suggests for lm-sensors in its text: "The DEB program package 'lm-sensors' contains programs to help you set up and read data from lm-sensors.  For 2.6 kernels, use the modules that are already in the kernel tree."?
[05:52] <mhz`> anyone know the typical size of a chassis cooling fan? i'm thinking between 40-60mm
[05:52] <Flannel> Hail_Spacecake: sounds like you hit the recovery console at your GRUB menu.  reboot and select a regular kernel (not the recovery one)
[05:52] <Hail_Spacecake> oh
[05:52] <Hail_Spacecake> yeah, I might've done that
[05:52] <Hail_Spacecake> I hit a random key at the GRUB menu
[05:53] <Hail_Spacecake> thanks
[05:53] <nprice> saxonjf, leave gaim, 7.10 will replace it with pidgin

[05:54] <CyziQ> thx
[05:54] <dhng> is there an official package of Pidgin?
[05:54] <bruenig> dhng, not in feisty
[05:54] <saxonjf> nprice, I've been wanting to switch, but had been waiting for an apt package
[05:54] <Flannel> dhng: No.  Not until gutsy.  Pidgin was released too late for feisty.
[05:54] <bruenig> saxonjf, there won't be one for 4 months
[05:55] <saxonjf> How can you address someone in red like that?
[05:55] <scotty> scoobtits: Please stop trying to use my nicks. Scotty, scotty_, scotty__, and most variations of them are mine. If you could use your current nick permanently, it would mean I wouldn't get pinged, and thus wouldn't have to ghost you.
[05:55] <Jordan_U> !prefix | saxonjf
[05:55] <bruenig> saxonjf, prefix their name
[05:55] <ubotu> saxonjf: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[05:56] <scoobtits> scotty, thats not me
[05:56] <saxonjf> !prefix | breunig
[05:56] <ubotu> breunig: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[05:56] <bruenig> what the hell
[05:56] <nprice> saxonjf, whenever you say someone else's name it makes it red
[05:56] <nprice> saxonjf, when you just talked to me it was red
[05:56] <bruenig> saxonjf, see this line is red
[05:56] <bruenig> this one isn't
[05:56] <saxonjf> !prefix | bruenig is it red now?
[05:56] <ubotu> bruenig is it red now?: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[05:56] <andrew____> is there anyway to play music ripped of your ipod?
[05:56] <nprice> saxonjf, you don't need to do !prefix
[05:57] <nprice> saxonjf, just say the person's name
[05:57] <StR> !prefix
[05:57] <scotty> scoobtits: Then it is someone on your network. Your hosts and IPs are identical.
[05:57] <saxonjf> nprice is it red without the word, now?
[05:57] <nprice> yes
[05:57] <scoobtits> yea i think it was the other computer, it must have signed in
[05:57] <dhng> is there a way to stop fsck from running after the drive had been mounted a certain number of time?
[05:57] <bruenig> saxonjf, you have to prefix the message with the hex ff0000 for it to be red, but it only shows up as red to others
[05:57] <Jordan_U> saxonjf, Sorry for confusing you, there is no need to use !prefix ( that is a message to the bot to display a message )
[05:57] <scotty> scoobtits: Regardless, I'd appreciate it if you'd stop.
[05:57] <scoobtits> no prob
[05:58] <bruenig> scotty loves his nickname
[05:58] <scotty> It's just annoying to be pinged whenever he says something or joins a channel I'm in

[05:59] <saxonjf> Al right, everything seems OK with removing gaim... I am having permission problems... I am trying to move a package from desktop to /user/share/xmms/skins/ but it says I don't have permission, and I don't know why.

[05:59] <andrew____> i ripped music of my ipod, and it plays with movie player but not amarok or rythmbox, any suggestions?
[05:59] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Well if you followed the instructions there you wouldn't get that error
[05:59] <vik> I've just been looking at top and evolution-data-server seems to be chewing most of my CPU time. I don't really use evolution much except for the calendar - any ideas how to manage this?
[05:59] <Justi1> I did!
[05:59] <conorkirkpatrick> Just1n: try this: sudo apt-get install k9copy
[06:00] <Radio> o.o
[06:00] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Then what are you using to play the DVD?
[06:00] <Radio> k9copy?
[06:00] <bruenig> conorkirkpatrick, k9copy is for copying the dvd not for watching it
[06:00] <Justi1> gxine
[06:00] <conorkirkpatrick> Oh
[06:00] <conorkirkpatrick> Justi1: sudo apt-get install VLC

[06:01] <Jordan_U> Justi1, It's a cross platform player that plays just about everything out of the box
[06:01] <conorkirkpatrick> defrysk: I don't even have X yet! I am doing a manual SSH install, plus I don't have any good DVDs, I need ~VHS

[06:03] <conorkirkpatrick> Does anybody know how I can get a file from Ubuntu to Mac OS X over the network
[06:03] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Yes
[06:03] <conorkirkpatrick> Ubuntu has no GUI either
[06:03] <madman91> does anyone know how i can get steve summit's C notes (on K+R's book) in one pdf / html file?
[06:03] <dope> if you forgot your root password is there anyway to recover or change it?
[06:03] <madman91> i see his site.. but how do i down it all
[06:03] <Jordan_U> conorkirkpatrick, scopy
[06:03] <Justi1> jordan_U: then ill install it on our old windows machine
[06:04] <Jordan_U> Justi1, My last windows machine ran 3.1 ;)
[06:04] <conorkirkpatrick> Jordan_U: where can I get Scopy, apt doesn't have it
[06:04] <saxonjf> quit
[06:04] <sidlet> Anybody here have experience backing up their DVD's to DivX format?
[06:04] <Justi1> jordan_u: my dad won't let me install some linux on ours :/
[06:04] <preaction> conorkirkpatrick: i think what he means is "scp".
[06:04] <Jordan_U> conorkirkpatrick, It is available in the default install, it's is on all *NIX boxes
[06:04] <Nubbie> sidlet: use ogg theora.
[06:05] <sidlet> Nubbie: okay, using what?
[06:05] <Nubbie> !theora | sidlet

[06:05] <sidlet> Justil: theres a few scripts for nautilus on gnome-look.org
[06:05] <Nubbie> sidlet: use a program thoggen.

[06:06] <Jordan_U> conorkirkpatrick, You may need to enable "remote login" on OSx ( which really means allowind ssh which scopy uses )
[06:06] <preaction> Jordan_U: it's "scp"
[06:06] <defrysk> Justi1, bad idea converting from one compression to another will make the quality go down
[06:07] <conorkirkpatrick> Jordan_U: I already have that, I enjoy SSH'ing :D
[06:07] <Nubbie> ssh is prime.
[06:07] <Jordan_U> preaction, knew that, my bad :)
[06:07] <Justi1> defrysk: I don't have all of the cd's I got the music from :/
[06:08] <Nubbie> one more question about dualhead guys. it's only extending my desktop, but i want two different desktops, different panels everything, since i won't be using the second monitor all of the time.
[06:08] <Nubbie> can somebody help me set that up?
[06:08] <Justi1> how do I play a dvd with vlc?
[06:08] <madman91> how can i snatch all of this site (  http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/cclass/notes/top.html  ) and put it into a pdf or html file?

[06:08] <g0dd3ss> hi everyone, I am trying the dialup modem on my toshiba satellite laptop (Agere softmodem) to work on ubuntu, do you think it's worth the trouble or should i just get an external modem?
[06:09] <Nubbie> i'm using i810 drivers with i810switch installed.
[06:09] <khermans> bruenig, you still here?
[06:09] <Nubbie> g0dd3ss: agere has drivers for linux.
[06:09] <Justi1> jordan_u: it takes me to the main menu, I click play, and it closes out
[06:09] <Nubbie> g0dd3ss: that doesn't mean your modem will work, or that it will be easy, but i suggest you look into it.
[06:09] <hatter> anyone know how to fix this in evolution :  error while storing folder 'inbox'l : summary and folder mismatch, even after sync
[06:10] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Do you have libdvdcss installed?
[06:10] <g0dd3ss> they do? well i've tried with this scanmodem and installed slmodem thing, keeps saying modem not found when i try to dial withit
[06:10] <Nubbie> g0dd3ss: because you haven't installed the lucent agere drivers.
[06:11] <Justi1> jordan_u: I have libdvdcss2

[06:12] <g0dd3ss> your dns not working right conorkirkpatrick ?
[06:12] <oscuro_> I can't move the cursor.
[06:12] <oscuro_> it's terrible.
[06:12] <oscuro_> it's happening now coming from 2 different isos.
[06:12] <Nubbie> oscuro_: is it a ps/2 mouse?
[06:12] <conorkirkpatrick> sbalneav: Hmm, I can wget things, and all other internet related things work, just not that
[06:13] <oscuro_> nubbie I think so!
[06:13] <dfgas> anyone got a dell with the stupid green shroud that goes over the heatsink?
[06:13] <oscuro_> it's not usb for sure.
[06:13] <mikeyb> i was wondering if someone could provide me with some dual booting vista / ubuntu 7.04 help (with 2 physical hard disks)
[06:13] <Nubbie> oscuro_: did you unplug it with the computer on?
[06:13] <rafaelscj> How can I set 1280x800 (Intel)?
[06:13] <mikeyb> i had one of those dells
[06:13] <Nubbie> oscuro_: plug it back in and reboot your computer. might fix it
[06:13] <oscuro_> no nubbie, never touched it.
[06:13] <mikeyb> with the crappy cooling fan and shroud
[06:13] <Nubbie> rafaelscj: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:13] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Should work then, strange
[06:13] <Nubbie> oscuro_: check it?
[06:14] <oscuro_> I'm gonna try nubbie.
[06:14] <oscuro_> but
[06:14] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Does it work with any other DVD's ?
[06:14] <sbalneav> conorkirkpatrick: Maybe canonical servers are overloaded.  Wait and try again later.
[06:14] <oscuro_> then, why I have no problem while loading this former ubuntu distro? :(

[06:14] <ReSpEcT> i got a big ? about ubuntu
[06:14] <Nubbie> mikeyb: install windows first, because it will pwn any other bootloader.
[06:14] <liquiddoom> <ReSpEcT
[06:14] <oscuro_> I'm sorry won't happen again.

[06:15] <rafaelscj> I forgot, something like: apt-get install 915resolution
[06:15] <mikeyb> nubbie: i did
[06:15] <Nubbie> mikeyb: allocate enough space when installing windows for linux, or just defrag your drives in windows and resize them while installing ubuntu.
[06:15] <khermans> bruenig, when you do aptitude reinstall ~i~Afeisty, you only get the packages in the correct repository
[06:15] <ReSpEcT> i have been installing it for bout a hour now and my screen just stays blank
[06:15] <mikeyb> ubuntu is on a slave drive on IDE
[06:16] <mikeyb> windows is on master
[06:16] <Nubbie> mikeyb: none of that matters.
[06:16] <mikeyb> o?
[06:16] <mikeyb> i dont get grub bootloader, just boots straight to win
[06:16] <Justi1> my cd drive made a crunching noise
[06:16] <khermans> bruenig, try aptitude reinstall ~i~Afeisty-updates
[06:16] <sbalneav> conorkirkpatrick: The message indicates it couldn't resolve the domain name.  That indicates that something with dns isn't happy.  How you've got things set up on your network will affect this.
[06:16] <khermans> bruenig, i prove my point
[06:16] <Nubbie> mikeyb: as long as one is master, one is slave, you're in the clear. all that does is tell the computer which IDE channel to communicate with the hard drive on.
[06:16] <mikeyb> right
[06:16] <ReSpEcT> !ask
[06:16] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:17] <mikeyb> but i do not have any option to boot into ubuntu
[06:17] <mikeyb> that i can see
[06:17] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, What was it last doing when it froze and can you get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1 ( F7 to get back to X ) ?
[06:17] <Nubbie> mikeyb: you actually installed it from the livecd?
[06:17] <mikeyb> yes sir
[06:17] <conorkirkpatrick> sba1neav: Well, all is well now, I am doing it from the host machine
[06:18] <Justi1> jordan_u: it works for star wars, but not for pirates
[06:18] <mikeyb> i heard of using easyBCD for modifying vista's bootloader
[06:18] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Is the drive GRUB was installed to the one you have set to boot?
[06:18] <mikeyb> no
[06:18] <Nubbie> mikeyb: don't use vista's bootloader, use grub.
[06:18] <ReSpEcT> it was checking all the list on installs and saying ok out to the right then went to a black screen and stayed there for bout 30 mins now
[06:18] <mikeyb> my bios will not let me configure boot to put one hard drive before the other though
[06:18] <Nubbie> mikeyb: reboot into a livecd, and fix your grub.
[06:18] <Nubbie> !grub > mikeyb
[06:19] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Might be a change in the DRM or a scratched disk ( more likely the former if it works in other players )
[06:19] <mikeyb> im on livecd now thankfully
[06:19] <mikeyb> !grub
[06:19] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:19] <mikeyb> that should help
[06:19] <Nubbie> mikeyb: make sure when you're editing your grub, that you're editing the grub installed on the drive already, not the one running in the live envirnment.
[06:19] <Justi1> jordan_u: what is the DRM
[06:19] <Andyho> yippee!! FINALLY gut ubuntu to install! :)
[06:19] <ifeveryoushoulda> DRM is the devil.
[06:19] <mikeyb> i thoguht grub would have to be located on the disk that ubuntu is on
[06:19] <mikeyb> it can be on the disk with vista?
[06:20] <mikeyb> and still allow me to choose to boot ubuntu?
[06:20] <Nubbie> nobody mentions the D word in this channel.
[06:20] <mikeyb> D word?
[06:20] <mikeyb> o
[06:20] <mikeyb> ?
[06:20] <mikeyb> oh DRM
[06:20] <mikeyb> lol nm
[06:20] <Nubbie> mikeyb: um... i'm not sure about that. i would ditch vista if i knew for certain if i needed it for school or not, and if my computer came with a damn vista installation cd.
[06:20] <Eleaf> does anybody use digikam?  I can see the thumbnails of my raw images fine, but when I click on one to open the editor, it is just black.  The image displays fine when not RAW (.CRW)
[06:21] <mikeyb> haha
[06:21] <mikeyb> i need to use photoshop CS3 and Dreamweaver
[06:21] <rustalot> Eleaf: what editor are you using
[06:21] <mikeyb> unsupported by Wine
[06:21] <Eleaf> rustalot, digikam
[06:21] <GigaClon> anyone know why the PCM level of my sound card jumps around on its own?
[06:21] <Eleaf> rustalot, just the built in digikam viewer/editor
[06:21] <Nubbie> mikeyb: then use vmware.
[06:21] <Nubbie> mikeyb: lol
[06:21] <Justi1> gigaclon: mine does too
[06:22] <GigaClon> whats your card?
[06:22] <mikeyb> ugh, its business use, i dont think i can sacrifice 7 or 8 years of experience with my otehr software
[06:22] <mikeyb> i want to support free software really bad
[06:22] <Jordan_U> Justi1, DRM is a technology made specifically to keep you from doing what you want to do with the content you paid for
[06:22] <Justi1> gigaclon: I don't have one, it part of motherboard
[06:22] <mikeyb> but, ya know, i can't put a halt on my business
[06:22] <Justi1> digital rights management?
[06:22] <GigaClon> i have a AC97 chipset
[06:22] <mikeyb> im still not sure how to boot - but ill keep messing
[06:22] <Nubbie> mikeyb: then tell your bosses to start teaching gimp and whatever other web design programs are out there for linux.
[06:22] <Andyho> Nubbie: does vmare support dreamweaver and photoshop?
[06:22] <Justi1> gigaclon: I think applications can change it
[06:22] <mikeyb> <--- self employed
[06:23] <rustalot> Eleaf: I had a problem once with Raw. where it wouldn't work i konqueror, but I opened with digikam and it worked. Do other apps open them ok?
[06:23] <mikeyb> i make the decisions >:D
[06:23] <Nubbie> andyho: it supports everything that doesn't require 3d acceleration.
[06:23] <Jordan_U> Justi1, http://www.defectivebydesign.org/what_is_drm
[06:23] <Eleaf> of course rustalot , I normally use ufraw
[06:23] <rustalot> Eleaf: I have no idea.
[06:23] <Eleaf> do I need a kibi plugin or something to display raw in digikam??
[06:23] <Nubbie> andyho: ie. 3d games won't work in vmware... google earth won't work in vmware.
[06:24] <Justi1> jordan_u when I put vlc in fullscreen, the video playback becomes choppy- can I fix this?
[06:24] <Andyho> Nubbie: cool deal.. I'm not much into gaming.. just design work! maybe the occasional diner dash! LOL
[06:24] <rustalot> Nubbie: The problem is that the GIMP kinda sucks when you compare it to photoshop.
[06:24] <bruenig> Justi1, how good is your cpu
[06:25] <bruenig> who is this khermans guy
[06:25] <Jordan_U> Justi1, It depends on what the setting on vlc currently are and how fast your computer is
[06:25] <Andyho> been trying to get away from windows forever..
[06:25] <phreck_> rustalot: thats why PS costs hundreds of dollars
[06:25] <phreck_> and theGIMP is free
[06:25] <Eleaf> that's not a very valid response
[06:25] <d2leo> I wanted to see if there is a way to get files from my ubuntu laptop from y networked windows machine.
[06:25] <bruenig> did he not notice I was away, he fired off about 6 messages up there
[06:25] <rustalot> phreck_: So?
[06:25] <Nubbie> rustalot: yeah, thats why i told him to use photoshop in vmware.
[06:25] <Eleaf> the gimp doesn't compare to photoshop because recently it lacks ingenuity and revolutionary addition and adaptation.
[06:25] <Justi1> jordan_u: its fast, but would running xgl affect it?
[06:25] <phreck_> so what do you expect?
[06:25] <robert_> where does gimp look for it's fonts?
[06:25] <phreck_> be realistic at least.
[06:26] <Eleaf> robert_, try the .fonts dir in your home directory
[06:26] <robert_> I got nothing there
[06:26] <bruenig> Justi1, it might
[06:26] <rustalot> phreck_: I expect that people will teach the apps that work best
[06:26] <Jordan_U> Justi1, Yes, XGL slows down everything, and ATI's drivers aren't very good either
[06:26] <Eleaf> make a directory robert_ , and put your fonts there.
[06:26] <Nubbie> rustalot: but when you consider what is the best deal for the money, open source always wins.
[06:26] <Eleaf> such as .ttf fonts
[06:26] <phreck_> gimp works best in linux =D
[06:26] <h4ngedm4n> just pick the tool that works for you and avoid X better than Y arguments
[06:27] <robert_> I'm looking for a specific one though
[06:27] <Justi1> jordan_u: if I switch my windows manager from beryl to gnome, will it disable xgl, or will I have to log out and in?
[06:27] <ReSpEcT> my ubuntu is not installing after the checks it went to a blank screen and now it just sits there can anybody help
[06:27] <Jordan_U> Justi1, You have to log out
[06:27] <ReSpEcT> do i need a previous version of linux installed first
[06:27] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, No
[06:28] <Andyho> do most of you have a single os or dual boot?? just curious
[06:28] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, Where is it freezing exactly? Do you get to the desktop at all?
[06:28] <ReSpEcT> no
[06:28] <d2leo> How can I map my networked windows hardrive to show up on my ubuntu laptop?
[06:28] <bullgard4> Andyho: I'm using a dual-boot computer.
[06:28] <Andyho> respect: I was having the same problem.. mine was a vid card issue.. took it out and it installed fine
[06:28] <rustalot> Andyho: I'm all Kubuntu now, but my new comp will have Vista preinstalled
[06:28] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, You might try the alternate CD, it is a text based installer
[06:28] <Justi1> jordan_u: must be beryl, because I disabled that and it works fine now. thanks for your help.
[06:28] <ReSpEcT> it was installing telling me everything was ok went to next step and has been there since
[06:29] <Jordan_U> Justi1, np
[06:29] <Nubbie> Andyho: my laptop came with vista, and i'm going away to school in september. i would ditch vista if i knew i didn't need it, but it didn't come with an installation cd, so i kinda want to keep it around until i find out for sure i can dump it. before that i've been using linux exclusively for 4 years.
[06:29] <Jordan_U> Justi1, I think there is a preference to turn off beryl when using full screen apps
[06:29] <ReSpEcT> i am using the one i made from the download of the linux site

[06:29] <Nubbie> justi1: add vlc to the excluded list in beryl.
[06:29] <cec> Nubbie, you can make back cds of you vista

[06:30] <Nubbie> cec: really?
[06:30] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, So it did get to the Desktop?
[06:30] <ReSpEcT> no
[06:30] <octavarium> does ubuntu 7.04 have an easy to use GUI installer?
[06:30] <cec> yes, I did with my thinkpad notebood

[06:30] <Nubbie> octavarium: of course, this is the year 2007 :)
[06:31] <ste-foy> !xchat
[06:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xchat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:31] <Nubbie> cec: could you enlighten me?
[06:31] <octavarium> is there good support for ati cards?
[06:31] <ste-foy> !ubotu
[06:31] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[06:31] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, You need to click on the install icon on the desktop to begin the install so I don't think it has tried to install anything yet
[06:31] <Andyho> that's cool. I have mandriva on my server and my other pc has media center and laptop xp.. but I'm just tired of all the windows crap! so hopefully I'll stick with ubuntu if I can get everything I need to work on it! :)
[06:31] <d2leo> How do I get files from my networked windows machine to my laptop with feisty installed?
[06:31] <Nubbie> octavarium: as good as ATI supports their customers, which isn't that bad.
[06:32] <oscuro_> me again, I just reboot, the cursor didn't move again :( then I unplug, and plug again the mouse (which has 6 sticks, I guess it's ps/3) and the cursor is just freeze.
[06:32] <Jordan_U> d2dchat, Places -> Netw2ork
[06:32] <octavarium> so ubuntu should automatically configure the cards and xorg, and all that right?
[06:32] <cec> On my system there is a menu item for backing up the entire preinstalled system. You can only do it once, so don't lose the cd.
[06:32] <Nubbie> andyho: what do you need working?
[06:32] <ReSpEcT> put the cd in from the beging of boot up and it went staight to the ubuntu menu that offers install, check cd, memory test and so on
[06:32] <d2dchat> Jordan_U, ?
[06:32] <Nubbie> octavarium: you'll need to configure xorg yourself, but it's really easy, and mostly automated.
[06:32] <Jordan_U> d2dchat, If you are already sharing the folder from windows it should show up there
[06:32] <Nubbie> octavarium: easy as sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:33] <d2dchat> Jordan_U, haha did i ask that question a long time ago or something? :)
[06:33] <Andyho> I have a chat client I have for work and of course they don't have any support other than windows :( and then like I said, photoshop and dreamweaver are the other main progs I use
[06:33] <Nubbie> andyho: what chat protocol does it use? and i forgot about the photoshop and all that.
[06:33] <sidlet> Andyho, your chat client doesnt work under wine?A
[06:33] <sixtyeight> How can I go about editing my xorg.conf file from the command line? I screwed something up and now I can't load X... :] 
[06:34] <dope> what's the command to look at harddrive space?
[06:34] <Nubbie> sixtyeight: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:34] <Sonic11> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:34] <defrysk> sixtyeight, use nano
[06:34] <sidlet> dope: df -h
[06:34] <ReSpEcT> jordan should i let windows load and select the install form there instead
[06:34] <Nubbie> sixtyeight: or do it sonic11's way if you have countless hours to waste.
[06:34] <Nubbie> sonic11: ;)
[06:34] <oscuro_> I can't install feisty if I can't work with the mouse once into the live desktop, what can I do, what could it be, thanks for any suggestion.
[06:34] <Andyho> I'm not entirely sure! I'm about to see if it'll work with wine.. the company I work for is kasamba.com
[06:35] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, No,it sounds like you are using an old version of Ubuntu though, are you using 7.04 ?
[06:35] <ste-foy> Hello
[06:35] <ReSpEcT> yes
[06:35] <PurpZeY> oscuro_: Is it a USB mouse?
[06:35] <Sonic11> =O!
[06:35] <oscuro_> no, it's ps something.
[06:35] <oscuro_> has 6 sticks, to plug in.
[06:35] <sixtyeight> Haha... well, I know what entry I added that screwed it up, so if I could get to an editing program I could easily fix it. I forgot about Nano. Thanks for the responses, though!
[06:35] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, I would try the alternate CD then
[06:35] <ReSpEcT> have tried desktop and ultimate which is what i am installing now
[06:35] <PurpZeY> oscuro_: It's a ps/2 mouse and it isn't working out of box?
[06:35] <Jordan_U> !alternate | ReSpEcT
[06:35] <ubotu> ReSpEcT: 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
[06:35] <Nubbie> np sixtyeight.
[06:36] <ReSpEcT> Jordan_u, can i download that somewhere
[06:36] <krinns_> hi all
[06:36] <oscuro_> it works in this forme version on ubuntu with no problem, but I want to install feisty, and mouse simply doens't move there. So I can't reach the 'install'.
[06:36] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, Yes from ubuntu.com, just check the box at the bottom for the alternate CD when you download
[06:36] <ReSpEcT> k ty will try it
[06:37] <krinns_> my evolution has some prbs when i try to save any attatchment with spaces like Market plan.doc through evlotion it saves as maret%plan.doc
[06:37] <oscuro_> also, the ingegrity of the iso is ok.
[06:37] <krinns_> any idea how i make it correct
[06:37] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, "Ubuntu Ultimate Edition" is not official and is very hackish IMHO
[06:37] <Nubbie> oscuro_: tab your way over to it ;)
[06:37] <krinns_> join #evolution
[06:37] <oscuro_> nubbie, how can I do that? sorry I'm just too noob.
[06:37] <Nubbie> oscuro_: look at your keyboard. locate "TAB"
[06:38] <Nubbie> lol
[06:38] <Andyho> LOL
[06:38] <osxdude|palmTX> LMAO
[06:38] <octavarium> thx for your help im sure i will enjoy your free os
[06:38] <Andyho> enter might help too ;)
[06:38] <Nubbie> oh yeah, spacebar works too i believe.
[06:38] <defrysk> gosh , thats where tab if for ? *scribble scribble
[06:38] <Jordan_U> osxdude|laptop, Andyho That wasn't called for
[06:38] <oscuro_> I'm feel ashamed :(, ok let's see, but what if once installed it continues the same, it would be kinda difficult to be tabbing all the time.
[06:39] <osxdude|palmTX> Jordan_U: sorry...
[06:39] <Nubbie> oscuro_: but it might not happen in the installation.
[06:39] <ahron>  hello. i have a fresh feisty install and my usb device transfer speeds seem super slow. is their a chance i could unload a usb module and load a faster one? i couldnt find anything online about slow usb, but it definitly seems like these arent 2.0 speeds
[06:39] <Nubbie> oscuro_: just curious, what kind of mouse is it? generic laser mouse or what?
[06:39] <mhz`-> dumb question..
[06:39] <oscuro_> I'll trust you guys then, I'm going into, bye.
[06:40] <oscuro_> it's a very old one, it's a genius.
[06:40] <mhz`-> i'm defragging my drive now, that i'll be dual booting w/ xp
[06:40] <h4ngedm4n> isnt that a bit naive to assume it will magically work in the installed version when it doesnt in the live cd?
[06:40] <Nubbie> oscuro_: i would consider buying a new 6 dollar one.
[06:40] <mhz`-> create the free space now then boot into ubuntu install?
[06:40] <oscuro_> bbl
[06:40] <oscuro_> thanks.
[06:41] <ReSpEcT> Jordan_u, one more ? my roommate seems to think one of the RAM sticks i have in is effecting it but i say it isnt't because xp pro loaded and ran on it
[06:41] <Frogzoo> ReSpEcT: reboot & choose "memtest" from the grub prompt
[06:41] <jmazikowski> hi, i installed jdk1.6.0_u2 and created the appropriate symlinks in /usr/bin, but when i try to run gui java app, it just gives me a window with a big grey panel without any contents. i have tried both frostwire and an app i wrote myself. what could be the problem? i dont get any errors when running them either
[06:42] <mikeyb> how would i find whether Grub was installed to my master or slave HDD
[06:42] <mikeyb> ?
[06:42] <Nubbie> jmazikowski: run java -jar /path/to/jar
[06:42] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, Run the memtest from GRUB or the LiveCD
[06:42] <jmazikowski> mikeyb: it should be the master by default... for the mbr
[06:43] <bullgard4> lsmod lists 102 modules. Do they include the modules which Synaptic suggests for lm-sensors in its text: "The DEB program package 'lm-sensors' contains programs to help you set up and read data from lm-sensors.  For 2.6 kernels, use the modules that are already in the kernel tree."?
[06:43] <osxdude|palmTX> mikeyb: play with you boot menu or boot order
[06:43] <Vsop_Vsop> G'day folks... Just installed 6.10 to my inspiron 9400 having troubles getting the nic to work.. any thoughts??
[06:43] <Nubbie> jmazikowski: tell me if that worked.
[06:43] <ReSpEcT> k
[06:43] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, You can also re-install grub wherever it needs to go] 
[06:43] <jmazikowski> Nubbie: what do you mean? i am not trying to run a .jar
[06:43] <osxdude|palmTX> nic?
[06:43] <mikeyb> how would i do that
[06:43] <mikeyb> because ubuntu is on a 2nd hard disk
[06:43] <Vsop_Vsop> Network interface card
[06:43] <summer_s4> Hi.  I just installed ubuntu (on a dif computer) and i have troubles
[06:43] <mikeyb> than is not enabled on boot order
[06:43] <mikeyb> that*
[06:44] <Nubbie> jmazikowski: your java application isn't in a jar. :o
[06:44] <Jordan_U> !grub | mikeyb
[06:44] <ubotu> mikeyb: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:44] <mikeyb> so grub never launches
[06:44] <capo> how do i run zsnes?  i installed it with synaptic but i cant find it in the applications menu
[06:44] <mikeyb> man this is confusin, ill keep trying though
[06:44] <Nubbie> mikey: follow the one about recovering ubuntu after installing windows.
[06:44] <osxdude|palmTX> mikeyb: restart your compu, prezs the F* button that is linked to boot menu
[06:44] <jmazikowski> Nubbie: no, i am just running the class... it is an app i wrote but am not finished with yet, so i didnt jar it
[06:44] <summer_s4> I have a wireless adapter, and i cannot connect to my wireless network
[06:44] <summer_s4> can someone help me?
[06:44] <Nubbie> capo: create a menu launcher for it, zsnes is the command.
[06:44] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Or you could set the drive with Ubuntu on it to boot by default
[06:45] <mikeyb> i think thats wha ti need to do
[06:45] <File13> hello all
[06:45] <jmazikowski> on my dapper install, i ran it fine... but now that i have java setup on fiesty, it doesnt work
[06:45] <mikeyb> because my BIOS does not allow me to choose slave HD for boot
[06:45] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, !hi | File13
[06:45] <summer_s4> Can someone plz help me?
[06:45] <mikeyb> only selection is "hard disk"
[06:45] <Nubbie> jmazikowski: i have been having some issues with java lately too, some web applets aren't working for me.
[06:45] <osxdude|palmTX> mikeyb: go to the "boot" category and change the hdd priority.
[06:45] <mikeyb> there is no option for "hard disk 2" or anything else
[06:45] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Ask your question, if anyone can help they will
[06:45] <summer_s4> I have a wireless adapter and network,
[06:46] <mikeyb> boot category where?
[06:46] <Nubbie> mikeyb: there is, it's called /dev/hd1
[06:46] <jmazikowski> Nubbie: is it just that version of java? or am i just SoL?
[06:46] <summer_s4> and ubuntu won't connect to the wireless network.
[06:46] <Nubbie> mikeyb: i think thats the notation for grub.
[06:46] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Does it show up in the network manager applet at the top of the screen?
[06:46] <osxdude|palmTX> mikeyb: boot category of the BIOS setup
[06:46] <summer_s4> When windows xp was my OS, it could connect easily and yes it does
[06:46] <Nubbie> jmazikowski: i dunno what's going on to be honest. i could just be my firefox.
[06:46] <Vsop_Vsop> >> am Hard wired but i get no traffic whatsoever...
[06:47] <summer_s4> it just fails to connect
[06:47] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, No that is the notation for linux, grub would be something like (hd0,0)
[06:47] <jmazikowski> Nubbie: see, thats the thing, my prob has nothing to do with firefox, just running straight from a term, using "java addressBook"
[06:47] <Vsop_Vsop> Anyone have a thought?..
[06:47] <Nubbie> summer_s4: but it is detected, and detects access points?
[06:47] <mikeyb> yeah, the boot configuration of BIOS only allows me to select these options for example: "cdrom" "hard disk" "usb hard disk" "usb cdrom" .... See: no secondary hard disk option available
[06:47] <osxdude|palmTX> Nubbie:This has nothing to do with grub. All we want to do is run it i the bios
[06:48] <Nubbie> jordan_U: thanks, it's been so long since grub has given me trouble.
[06:48] <ReSpEcT> jordan_u, how many test should it run
[06:48] <summer_s4> it detects the only wireless access point in hte house but when i go to connect, it fails then about 5 minneuts l8r it freezes
[06:48] <Nubbie> mikeyb: you need to install grub on your first hard drive then. follow the guide to do it.
[06:48] <mikeyb> ok
[06:48] <osxdude|palmTX> mikeyb:....can you change the boot device priority? the boot HDD priority?
[06:48] <Vsop_Vsop> I make my Conecetion to eth0 and its keeps saying its dissconected...
[06:49] <Vsop_Vsop> but set it to lo and i get idle...
[06:49] <summer_s4> Hello???
[06:49] <Jordan_U> ReSpEcT, I don't know, I had memory problems that didn't show up for about 20 minutes ( but that was a strange problem with the mother board not the RAM itself )
[06:49] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: lo is internal only. do you have your lan setting correct? ie. dhcp enabled?
[06:50] <Vsop_Vsop> Nubbie : yes it id
[06:50] <Vsop_Vsop> is**
[06:50] <Nubbie> Jordan_U: try resetting to default in BIOS, maybe something's messed up in there.
[06:50] <summer_s4> Hi.  I am summer s4.
[06:50] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, Was that really to me?
[06:51] <summer_s4> My desktop, which i just installed Ubuntu, is not connecting to my wireless network
[06:51] <osxdude|palmTX> !hi | summer_s4
[06:51] <ubotu> summer_s4: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:51] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Does it show up in the network manager applet at the top of the screen?
[06:51] <mikeyb> the guide says i need to find why ./boot is located...
[06:52] <summer_s4> Jordan_U: It appears.  I even tried removing the WEP key.
[06:52] <Vsop_Vsop> WOW ok.. i have to say that has been the dumbest thing i have done yet... sorry to bother you..
[06:52] <mikeyb> when i do the command df ./boot it does not give me a name under filesystem
[06:52] <osxdude|palmTX> summer_s4: did you try using a a static IP?
[06:52] <ReSpEcT> has anybody in here got a neo1973 phone yet?
[06:52] <Vsop_Vsop> How about check marking it after i set it to DHCP
[06:52] <summer_s4> osxdude: I don't know the mac address
[06:52] <Vsop_Vsop> DUH
[06:52] <mikeyb> like it should dhow me ./dev/hda3 for exmaple
[06:52] <jmazikowski> quit
[06:52] <mikeyb> but no dice

[06:53] <ubotu> summer_s4: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:53] <File13> Alright i have a quick question reguarding wireless networks as well, only my internal wireless card appears not to be detected as in the top of the screen my wireless network isnt detected
[06:53] <mikeyb> ok
[06:54] <mikeyb> ill use that
[06:54] <osxdude|palmTX> "Config" dropown, and entr the settings
[06:54] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, It shouldn't have... did you run it from the grub prompt?
[06:54] <mikeyb> ran it from root
[06:54] <summer_s4> umm... ok i will try dat
[06:54] <mikeyb> (im new to the terminal / linux by the way)
[06:54] <mikeyb> lol
[06:54] <mikeyb> which matters greatly
[06:54] <osxdude|palmTX> file13: that's confusing
[06:54] <mikeyb> and i am running off the livecd
[06:54] <jonathan_> somebody know the way to install ubuntu studio using apt-get?
[06:55] <summer_s4> gotta power on the computer
[06:55] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Run "sudo grub" and it should bring you to a different prompt
[06:55] <mikeyb> ok
[06:55] <summer_s4> god this takes a long time with only a 1.3 GHZ prossessor
[06:55] <File13> basically i have an internal wireless card in my laptop but i guess its not compat. because i see now wireless networks even though  i know its htere
[06:55] <osxdude|palmTX> jonathan_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu_studio
[06:55] <Nubbie> jonathan_: add the ubuntu-studio repositories, install their -desktop meta package
[06:55] <Nubbie> or yeah.
[06:55] <jonathan_> oh...
[06:56] <jonathan_> ok
[06:56] <jonathan_> thx
[06:56] <summer_s4> I got it logged in, what do i do again?
[06:56] <mikeyb> df /boot is not a command there
[06:56] <mikeyb> from the grub command line
[06:56] <osxdude|palmTX> summer_s4: go to the configuration of the card
[06:56] <summer_s4> how do i get there?
[06:57] <jonathan_> Nubbie, what's the mean of 'install their desktop meta package?
[06:57] <osxdude|palmTX> system > administration > network > click wireless card > click Proprities
[06:57] <osxdude|palmTX> summer_s4: thas for u
[06:57] <summer_s4> i know.
[06:57] <summer_s4> umm...
[06:58] <summer_s4> it says properties
[06:58] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Ahh I think you are using the wrong guide...
[06:58] <jonathan_> I think there only need sudo apt-get install ubuntu_studio and will be automatically installing and just pick the session??
[06:58] <mikeyb> yea i dont think i shoudl use that guide
[06:58] <Nubbie> jonathan_: in ubuntu, the ubuntu-desktop package installs all dependancies of ubuntu, kubuntu-desktop installs all of kubuntu's dependancies.
[06:58] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, You should be using this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[06:58] <Vsop_Vsop> so honestly for anyone that is willing to answer this... what is the Advantages of 7.4 from 6.10???
[06:58] <summer_s4> i will brb.
[06:58] <jonathan_> ooo, understand
[06:59] <summer_s4> Umm...
[06:59] <mikeyb> I want to try installing grub onto my primary HDD (the one with vista on it)
[06:59] <summer_s4> How come the movie i saw of Ubuntu made me want ubuntu but now i don't want it?
[06:59] <Vsop_Vsop> :))
[06:59] <mikeyb> maybe if it boots into grub i will then be able to configure it to load ubuntu off of the sencondary HDD
[06:59] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, But instead of installing to the Ubuntu partition like it says you want to install to the MBR of your windows drive **warning, if this does not work windows will no longer boot**
[07:00] <Vsop_Vsop> because your TOO use to WINDDOWS there Summer
[07:00] <osxdude|palmTX> summer_s4: idk.......
[07:00] <summer_s4> Well...
[07:00] <summer_s4> i have used it for 21 years
[07:00] <Vsop_Vsop> whats that Windows??
[07:00] <summer_s4> and linux for only 2 hours
[07:00] <osxdude|palmTX> Hey, it's 12AM/
[07:00] <Vsop_Vsop> I REST MY CASE
[07:00] <summer_s4> god
[07:00] <basketcase3> I need some help sorting out a few small bugs with my newly converted winmodem. Any takers?
[07:00] <summer_s4> i wish
[07:00] <Nubbie> summer_s4: you just need to forget bad habits, and start from scratch.
[07:00] <mikeyb> jordan - if windows will no longer boot... can i set up grub to boot windows?
[07:01] <osxdude|palmTX> OMFG! IT'S 12am! Good Night All! ...
[07:01] <mikeyb> even if its on a diff. disk than ubuntu?
[07:01] <summer_s4> well... i can't.  I just am used to windows
[07:01] <Vsop_Vsop> Thats allright i have been playing with Linux in general and i did not see the darn checkmark there to turn my dhcp on.. whats that tell you
[07:01] <jonathan_> 12 AM??
[07:01] <Vsop_Vsop> for about 4 yrs
[07:01] <Vsop_Vsop> LMAO
[07:01] <Nubbie> mikeyb: grub handles all operating systems on all permanent disks.
[07:01] <jonathan_> in here 12 at the morning
[07:01] <mikeyb> oOo
[07:01] <MajorPayne> summer_s4: 'It's spelled Linux but pronunced "Not Windows"'
[07:01] <mikeyb> that sounds promising
[07:01] <Nubbie> mikeyb: follow the guide.
[07:01] <summer_s4> lol
[07:01] <mikeyb> i just have to get GRUB onto the primary booting disk
[07:02] <mikeyb> this is going to be a long night
[07:02] <summer_s4> It has the windows simble on the front of my Computer case
[07:02] <Nubbie> mikeyb: it should only take 20 minutes tops following the guide.
[07:02] <MajorPayne> summer_s4: If you want to use Windows use Windows.  If you want to use Ubuntu use Ubuntu.  But understand they are not the same thing.
[07:02] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, I have never set up grub to use a /boot from another drive, and if you do install grub it will overwrite the windows bootloader ( though it can be easily recovered with a windows installCD )
[07:02] <Nubbie> summer_s4: but keep in mind, you can have the best of both worlds.
[07:02] <summer_s4> I just put my Windows XP disk threw a shredder
[07:02] <Vsop_Vsop> Take whatever you THINK you know about windows.. and throw it out the window.. so to speak
[07:03] <Vsop_Vsop> Wow now that was silly wasnt it
[07:03] <Vsop_Vsop> lol
[07:03] <summer_s4> i want windows back badly now.
[07:03] <RoC_MasterMind> you'll get over it
[07:03] <rustalot> I've heard vista does funky things to GRUB. Is this true
[07:03] <Nubbie> summer_s4: since you legally own a license to use windows you could always download an xp iso or something.
[07:03] <Vsop_Vsop> i heard that too
[07:03] <Nubbie> vista wipes out grub completely.
[07:03] <summer_s4> uhh and legally your rear stinks
[07:03] <summer_s4> it won't happen
[07:04] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, But grub can easily be re-installed
[07:04] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. How do I mount an ISO image to /mnt/folder1?
[07:04] <Vsop_Vsop> Carefully
[07:04] <rustalot> but if vista is there already, I can install a dualboot
[07:04] <Vsop_Vsop> lol
[07:04] <Jordan_U> !iso | Shaddox
[07:04] <ubotu> Shaddox: 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.
[07:04] <Nubbie> yeah i know it can be. either A) don't install windows, or B) install windows BEFORE you install linux. any other order of events will mess up your grub.
[07:04] <Jordan_U> Shaddox, Ubotu knows all :)
[07:05] <rustalot> !info social-life
[07:05] <mikeyb> i don't care about overwriting the vista bootloader, ill use grub
[07:05] <ubotu> Package social-life does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:05] <rustalot> lol
[07:05] <mikeyb> i just want to be able to boot both OS's
[07:05] <mikeyb> on 2 seperate HDD's
[07:05] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Just be ready to restore it if this doesn't work...
[07:05] <StR> you could mikeyb installed first win and then installed ubuntu and you're done
[07:05] <StR> it will automaticly, be there the win partition on you're grub
[07:05] <Nubbie> mikeyb: if you want to use grub, you have to overwrite vista's bootloader. vista's bootloader is only designed to work with vista, grub works with everything else.
[07:06] <summer_s4> take one hard drive, and put it on a new motherboard and other stuff
[07:06] <Nubbie> mikeyb: so install grub, follow the guide, it's not that hard.
[07:06] <mikeyb> yup
[07:06] <mikeyb> ill work on this: ill let you guys know if i run into trouble (most likely will)
[07:06] <rustalot> Nubbie: I thought grub loaded the vista bootloader, and then it booted vista?
[07:07] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, So now follow the instructions for recovering GRUB but when only use what the guide says for the " root (hdx,x)" and not for the "setup (hdx,x)
[07:07] <Nubbie> rustalot: i don't believe so.
[07:07] <joebob777as7> i want to create a couple of users that are limited to their own home folder and can not view the other user's information or home folders... how do i do this?
[07:08] <mikeyb> what is the command to delete a directory?
[07:08] <basketcase3> I need some help sorting out a few small bugs with my newly converted PCTel modem.
[07:08] <Nubbie> joebob777as7: users by default can't view other users' home directories.
[07:08] <Vsop_Vsop> so honestly for anyone that is willing to answer this... what is the Advantages of 7.4 from 6.10???
[07:08] <rustalot> mikeyb: it depends
[07:08] <Vsop_Vsop> like is there alot?...
[07:08] <rustalot> rmdir will delete it if it's empty
[07:08] <capo> how do i have gdesklets start up when ubuntu does?  i know to go to sessions and startup programs, but i dont know the command.  how do you find the command?
[07:08] <mikeyb> i did mkdir /blank/blank ... i want to delte it
[07:08] <rustalot> else use rm -rf
[07:08] <Nubbie> mikeyb: rmdir, but if there's stuff in it you want to delete, rm -r
[07:08] <mikeyb> okay ill try it
[07:08] <ash1574> thank you people who i think speak mars talk
[07:08] <ash1574> lol
[07:08] <ash1574> oops
[07:08] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, For the setup number tell me what the find command gave and I will tell you what to use. basically if it was (hd1,1) you would use (hd0)
[07:09] <h4ngedm4n> I'd like to know what is the advantages of singular and plural myself
[07:09] <joebob777as7> Nubbie, do i have to make them part of the "users" group? i have edubuntu and when i go to add user they are able to see my user files...
[07:09] <Nubbie> joebob777as7: i don't know anything at all about edubuntu.
[07:09] <joebob777as7> ok thx Nubbie
[07:10] <Nubbie> joebob777as7: but that doesn't sound right to me.
[07:10] <joebob777as7> that's what i thougt Nubbie
[07:11] <nextse7en> Could someone tell me what directory wine designates as c by default. Its says ../drive_c but I can't find that dir.
[07:11] <mikeyb> hmm
[07:11] <mikeyb> root@ubuntu:~# mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/root
[07:11] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Are you to the "root (hdx,x)" and "setup (hdx,x)" part yet?
[07:11] <mikeyb> gives me an error
[07:11] <mikeyb> no
[07:11] <File13> ok sorry i was away for a while but anyways could someone guide me in perhaps getting the wireless to work, i have a USB dongle that i could try as well
[07:11] <mikeyb> trying to mount some stuff
[07:11] <mikeyb> wrong fs type
[07:11] <mikeyb> it says
[07:11] <summer_s4> thank you peeps who tried so hard to help a person so used to Windows
[07:11] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Can you pastebin the output of "fdisk -l" ?
[07:12] <capo> how do i have gdesklets start up when ubuntu does?  i know to go to sessions and startup programs, but i dont know the command.  how do you find the command?
[07:12] <summer_s4> now how do i change the screen resolution?
[07:12] <mikeyb> yes jordan
[07:12] <gaze_> how do I get the man pages for strlen strcpy etc.?
[07:12] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, What GPU do you have ( you need to get the drivers most likely ) ?
[07:12] <nextse7en> I guess what I'm saying, is what dir is ../drive c? Does that denote /drive_c? or is it somewhere else, because I cant do cd ../drive_c from the root mount point.
[07:13] <summer_s4> umm... i think nividi geforce something.
[07:13] <mikeyb> posted as mikeyb
[07:13] <mikeyb> on postbin
[07:13] <joebob777as7> is there a way that when a user logs out their home folder and all that is in it copies to another directory?
[07:13] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, You need to give us the URL
[07:13] <summer_s4> It says i am connect to internet but it is having problomes
[07:13] <nextse7en> cd /drive_c doesn't work either from  /
[07:13] <mikeyb> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30074/
[07:13] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: I just created a new user.  The permissions allow all users to view it.  Either way "chmod o-rwx directory" should remove the permissions should it not?
[07:13] <bruenig> nextse7en, what are you talking about
[07:13] <Jack_Sparrow> what is the command in terminal to ID the chipset in a pcmcia wireless card?
[07:14] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: To view the home directory that is.
[07:14] <summer_s4> uhh whoo wah?
[07:14] <mikeyb> note to jordan: ubuntu is on 20GB HDD, vista on 160GB HDD
[07:14] <swin> helo
[07:14] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, You want to mount hdd1
[07:14] <mikeyb> already installed both
[07:14] <nextse7en> bruenig, I'm trying to find the dir that wine designates as c dive by default. in wine config. is says drive c is ../drive_c I'm just wondering where that is.
[07:14] <summer_s4> my computer is being wierd
[07:15] <bruenig> nextse7en, ~/.wine/drive_c
[07:15] <capo> how do i have gdesklets start up when ubuntu does?  i know to go to sessions and startup programs, but i dont know the command.  how do you find the command?
[07:15] <nextse7en> ~/ ?
[07:15] <Jordan_U> nextse7en, It's in your home folder
[07:15] <bruenig> capgadget, the command is gdesklets
[07:15] <nextse7en> Ahh.
[07:15] <bruenig> nextse7en, /home/username
[07:15] <nextse7en> thanks.
[07:15] <bruenig> nextse7en, or as root /root
[07:15] <Jordan_U> nextse7en, ~ == /home/you/
[07:15] <ingo> hi people! anyone knows a free alternate to skype-VoIP for educational use ?!
[07:15] <nextse7en> Thanks so much for the clerification,
[07:15] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Anyone running wine as root is insane
[07:15] <mikeyb> ooo it worked so far
[07:15] <summer_s4> My computer is being wierd.  It says it see's the WLAN network but it won't use it
[07:15] <capo> bruenig: tried, that. doesnt work
[07:16] <mikeyb> i thought i had to mount the drive i wished to install grub to
[07:16] <Amaranth> ingo: does it have to work with skype users?
[07:16] <bruenig> capo, run gdesklets from the terminal
[07:16] <mikeyb> which would be /dev/sda1
[07:16] <summer_s4> can someone help me?
[07:16] <Hansel> My XFCE4 is jacked up.  I tried running beryl and none of the window decorations showed up.  I kill off beryl and they are now gone for XFCE as well.  Any ideas on what to do?
[07:16] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, We are doing a little differently then what the instructions say
[07:16] <bruenig> Jordan_U, perhaps, sometimes I accidentally launch a program when I am running around as root in the terminal, but I have modified most of my wine launch scripts to check for root and exit
[07:16] <mikeyb> ok
[07:16] <capo> bruenig:okay, now what?
[07:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless
[07:16] <bruenig> capo, does it work
[07:16] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:17] <ingo> amaranth: no, but should be for linux os x and window$
[07:17] <jmchaffie> is there a plugin or external app that will let me view youtube and google vids fullscreen?
[07:17] <summer_s4> Hello
[07:17] <bruenig> Hansel, run xfwm4
[07:17] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Hence why you shouldn't sudo -s very often :)
[07:17] <summer_s4> !hi all
[07:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi all - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:17] <bruenig> Jordan_U, su
[07:17] <capo> bruenig: ya, when i do it in the terminal, but i have it use that command to start up, but it doesnt start up with it
[07:17] <Amaranth> ingo: gizmo
[07:17] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Even worse :)
[07:17] <bruenig> capo, well it should
[07:17] <capo> bruenig: alright, thanks
[07:17] <summer_s4> hello can someone help me?
[07:18] <ingo> amaranth: gizmo is also propri, isn't it ?
[07:18] <Amaranth> ingo: it is
[07:18] <summer_s4> never mind it is working now
[07:18] <ingo> amaranth: hmm ...
[07:18] <Hansel> bruenig, so simple fix... thanks!  :P
[07:18] <summer_s4> after a rear end load of work
[07:18] <gaze_> what package are the man pages for strlen strcpy etc. in?
[07:18] <bruenig> !find glibc
[07:18] <ubotu> Found: glibc-doc, libc6, libc6-pic, libg++2.8.1.3-glibc2.2, libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
[07:18] <Amaranth> ingo: you could use ekiga and some other SIP client on OS X and Windows but gizmo is the only one that works on all 3
[07:19] <jmchaffie> Is there a plugin or external app for playing google / youtube videos fullscreen? (basically web-/flash vids?)
[07:19] <bruenig> !find libc
[07:19] <ubotu> Found: apt, apt-utils, glibc-doc, klibc-utils, libc6 (and 503 others)
[07:19] <mikeyb> well grub installation to HDD1 completed successfully
[07:19] <bruenig> !find libc6-dev
[07:19] <ubotu> Found: libc6-dev, libc6-dev-amd64
[07:19] <mikeyb> so far im following the guide exactly except with hdd1
[07:19] <bruenig> gaze_, I think libc6-dev
[07:19] <mikeyb> where are the changes that will allow this to load on my Primary HDD?
[07:19] <joebob777as7> i want to create a couple of users that are limited to their own home folder and can not view the other user's information or home folders... how do i do this?
[07:19] <ingo> amaranth: ok - thanks for info - i think a combination of programs is the best way ...
[07:19] <summer_s4> I have a question.  Was Ubuntu built somewhat like Mac?
[07:19] <gaze_> bruenig: Thanks
[07:19] <bruenig> gaze_, you might want to install build-essential if you haven't already
[07:20] <Jordan_U> jmchaffie, Either download the .flv file and play it in your favorite player or install the new flash Beta
[07:20] <bruenig> summer_s4, mac is hardware
[07:20] <gaze_> summer_s4: What do you mean?
[07:20] <bruenig> it is like asking if ubuntu is build like PC
[07:20] <bruenig> built*
[07:20] <Nubbie> jmchaffie: i dunno about that, but democracytv handles them okay.
[07:20] <MajorPayne> summer_s4: I run Ubuntu on my MacBook.
[07:20] <mikeyb> i will be back into the channel soon, i am going to rebut and try see if grub loads
[07:20] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, OSx is *NIX as Linux is
[07:20] <jmchaffie> Jordan_U: I wouldn't mind downloading them, can't always get the link though.
[07:20] <mikeyb> i have a feeling it wont since it appears i just installed grub on the secondary HDD that does not boot
[07:21] <Jordan_U> jmchaffie, Just grab it from /tmp
[07:21] <bruenig> OSX uses darwin kernel though so it has a far cooler name
[07:21] <summer_s4> has anyone advanced installed firefox 3 yet?
[07:21] <bruenig> summer_s4, I haven't but if you need to know how...
[07:21] <Nubbie> summer_s4: linux was made to do anything. ubuntu uses a desktop called gnome, which is mildly inspired/based on mac operating systems.
[07:21] <summer_s4> i do need to can you tell me via private chat?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Technically it uses XNU
[07:22] <bruenig> Nubbie, source for that gnome claim
[07:22] <elpha> doesn't gnome predate os x?
[07:22] <jmchaffie> Jordan_U: gotcha... lol... well you know, when the whip cracks as sharp as it does here... you don't have to walk far.. sheesh. thanks. I'll have a look at the beta on my beat-up box too. Take care.
[07:22] <MajorPayne> I don't think Gnome copies Mac OS X interface at all.
[07:22] <Jordan_U> elpha,yes. By a long shot
[07:22] <Nubbie> bruenig: i don't need to source anything. apple was the first gui, the first with panels, all i'm saying is it's inspired by it.
[07:22] <summer_s4> Bruenig, can you start telling me how to?
[07:22] <elpha> Jordan_U: yeah, i thought it was years earlier...
[07:23] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, Xerox had the first GUI
[07:23] <bruenig> summer_s4, you want to install it over your current firefox? so that when you click in the menu it opens firefox 3
[07:23] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: OS X has panels?
[07:23] <summer_s4> uggh
[07:23] <summer_s4> i want both though
[07:23] <nextse7en> hi again, how do I give myself read-write permission to a folder when the owner is root?
[07:23] <Nubbie> MajorPayne: yeah that thing with the clock on it you know....
[07:23] <elpha> "GNOME was launched by the GNU project in August 1997"
[07:23] <summer_s4> oh didn't see dat ? mark.  Can you tell me how to?
[07:24] <bruenig> !prefix | summer_s4
[07:24] <ubotu> summer_s4: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[07:24] <bruenig> gnome stole from xerox it is official
[07:24] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: That's just the menu bar isn't it?  Or can you do more with it?
[07:24] <Jordan_U> !permissions | nextse7en
[07:24] <ubotu> nextse7en: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:24] <elpha> http://www.nongnu.org/libtranslate/gnome-translate/screenshot.png
[07:24] <summer_s4> bruenig:  Can you explain how to here?
[07:24] <nextse7en> Thank you
[07:24] <elpha> version 0.00 gnome
[07:24] <frawg> Any ideas on this? It comes in an error screen and the xorg.0.log file when booting up.      /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libglx.so: undefined symbol: _nv001462gl
[07:24] <joebob777as7> i want to create a couple of users that are limited to their own home folder and can not view the other user's information or home folders... how do i do this?
[07:24] <bruenig> summer_s4, where it installs on top of the current one or where you have them both installed
[07:25] <bruenig> ?
[07:25] <elpha> whoops, that's not version 0.99 my mistake
[07:25] <summer_s4> I want them both installed
[07:25] <kbrosnan> summer_s4: just download the alpha from ftp.mozilla.org and untar it to your home directory and double click on the firefox shell script called "firefox"
[07:25] <bruenig> summer_s4, ok give me a sec
[07:25] <bruenig> summer_s4, you wouldn't happen to have a link handy?
[07:26] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to add a new work station.
[07:26] <summer_s4> bruenig: no
[07:26] <Nubbie> MajorPayne: isn't it completely possible gnome took that idea, and expanded upon it to make it more functional? ie. inspired?
[07:26] <summer_s4> bruenig: i will get it 4 u
[07:26] <Nubbie> MajorPayne: just because it's linux doesn't mean it's completely original ideas.
[07:26] <capo> i have gdesklets as a startup program, but whenever i start up ubuntu, gdesklets starts up but then quits.  how do i fix this?
[07:27] <nextse7en> Holy crap, is there a way to change permissions via the gui?
[07:27] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: Duno.  But I have used Mac OS X and they were quite different.  I would consider the Gnome pannel to be more like the Windows task bar.
[07:27] <Jordan_U> nextse7en, Yes, right click -> Propreties
[07:27] <summer_s4> brueneg: is that good?
[07:27] <Nubbie> nextse7en: right click files/folders > properties > permissions
[07:27] <Nubbie> majorpayne: there were macintosh operating systems before os10.
[07:27] <bruenig> summer_s4, link gave me a 550 error
[07:28] <nextse7en> Nubbie, Jordan_U, I tried that, but the folder is owned by root, so I can't change permissions.
[07:28] <summer_s4> brueneg: i downloaded file firefox-3.0a7pre.en-us.linux-I686.tar.bz2
[07:28] <MajorPayne> Nubbie: Ahh.  I don't know then.  I wasn't trying to say that everything in Linux is new.
[07:28] <Amaranth> Nubbie: and they didn't have task management :P
[07:28] <Amaranth> well, i think they had a drawer
[07:28] <Jordan_U> nextse7en, "gksudo nautilus" but remember with great power...
[07:28] <summer_s4> go to mozilla.org
[07:28] <Nubbie> nextse7en: gksu nautilus. but tell me first what it is you're changing the permissions of. nothing system critical i hope.
[07:28] <nextse7en> Thanks Jordan_U
[07:28] <Jordan_U> nextse7en, np
[07:28] <bruenig> summer_s4, give me a full link
[07:29] <bruenig> summer_s4, all I see is alpha6
[07:29] <eonflare> Anyone in here know what to do to get a "default" ubuntu zsh setup?  Like a default setting for the $PS1 variable and a sane binding for the backspace key?
[07:29] <summer_s4> bruenig: i will tell you how to get there
[07:29] <nextse7en> No, a program folder of a windows app I need to use with wine.
[07:29] <bruenig> summer_s4, it would be easier if you just gave the full link...
[07:29] <summer_s4> bruenig: sorry but i can't what is a 550 error?
[07:29] <basketcase3> I need some help sorting out a few small bugs with my newly converted PCTel modem.
[07:29] <Nubbie> nextse7en: then it would be safe to change the permissions of everything on the windows drive mount, so you can read it all.
[07:30] <bruenig> summer_s4, some ftp error
[07:30] <summer_s4> bruenig: go to mozilla.org/developer
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, How is it going with GRUB?
[07:30] <Nubbie> nextse7en: and if you're trying to write to an ntfs drive, you need to install ntfs-3g
[07:30] <summer_s4> brueneg: click on the lefthand bar get the source
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, How is it going with GRUB?
[07:30] <dvm> Is it possible to use grid in GTK to display the datas from DB?
[07:30] <Nubbie> yeah. mikeyb, any problems?
[07:31] <pppZero__> can anyone tell me which packages i need to install to get an autogen.sh to run?
[07:31] <Nubbie> dvm: like mysql tables?
[07:31] <mikeyb> jordan: well. not good ... i rebooted and it just said GRUB ...  and hung
[07:31] <mikeyb> like with blinking dots
[07:31] <capo> i have gdesklets as a startup program, but whenever i start up ubuntu, gdesklets starts up but then quits.  how do i fix this?
[07:31] <dvm> ya.. SQLite
[07:31] <bruenig> summer_s4, it doesn't matter if you have the file on your disk, it will work the same
[07:31] <Nubbie> pppZero: autogen.sh of what? you need build-essentials and automake
[07:31] <dvm> Nubbile, ya.. SQLite
[07:32] <summer_s4> brueneg: then go down to releases and click ftp server
[07:32] <Nubbie> pppZero: depending on what you're making you may need more dependancies.
[07:32] <pppZero__> Nubbie: jack.tools - and thanks :)
[07:32] <Nubbie> dvm: there is a program called sqlite-admin or something. google it, i'm not sure.
[07:32] <ManoDura>  buscasa qui
[07:32] <mikeyb> any ideas? because appearantly GRUB cant boot me into either OS
[07:32] <Kether> que diabos
[07:32] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, Don't know then, until you can get GRUB fixed you can restore Vista's loader with the install CD
[07:32] <Nubbie> manodura: tu parles francais?
[07:33] <mikeyb> im on a mission :D

[07:33] <ubotu> guix: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:33] <Nubbie> that was french rob.
[07:33] <mikeyb> supposedly EasyBCD is a utiliity that should allow me to work with both
[07:33] <Nubbie> :l
[07:33] <mikeyb> looking more at that now
[07:33] <Jordan_U> rob,  I was way off :)
[07:33] <rob> Nubbie, oh my bad :)
[07:34] <bruenig> summer_s4, where is the file, on your desktop or home folder or what?
[07:34] <Nubbie> they're talking about italian wine though, so easy mistake.
[07:34] <Nubbie> :)
[07:34] <darkkish> can anyone tell me what the MD5 is for ubuntu?
[07:34] <dvm> Nubbie, I need  a grid view example for GTK
[07:34] <darkkish> their website doesn't seem to have it
[07:34] <summer_s4> on the desktop but read my away note
[07:34] <guix> hola
[07:34] <darkkish> they only have an explanation of how to FIND the MD5 of what you've downloaded
[07:34] <guix> melange
[07:34] <joebob777as7> i want to create a couple of users that are limited to their own home folder and can not view the other user's information or home folders... how do i do this by default?
[07:34] <Jordan_U> !md5 | darkkish
[07:34] <ubotu> darkkish: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[07:34] <john|g> 0e8a7f30f1d9cb3d68495a56797895ec
[07:34] <Nubbie> darkkish: it should be on the page you downloaded the image from.
[07:34] <guix> melange de sang barbare et de vin d'Italie
[07:35] <Nubbie> guix: ubuntu-fr si vous plait :)
[07:35] <darkkish> Nubbie but it wasn't
[07:35] <summer_s4> How do i mark myself as back
[07:35] <bruenig> summer_s4, ok do this cd ~/Desktop && sudo tar xf firefox-3.0a7pre.en-us.linux-I686.tar.bz2 -C /opt && sudo ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox /usr/bin/firefoxalpha && sudo sed '/Name/s/Firefox/Firefox Alpha/' /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop | sudo tee /usr/share/applications/firefoxalpha.desktop && sudo sed '/Exec/s/firefox/firefoxalpha/' -i /usr/share/applications/firefoxalpha.desktop
[07:35] <Jordan_U> darkkish, It should be on the "real" downloads page
[07:35] <darkkish> ah
[07:35] <bruenig> summer_s4, copy and paste everything after "this" all at once
[07:36] <RoC_MasterMind> !pastebin

[07:36] <Nubbie> bruenig: that is one very large one liner ;)
[07:36] <summer_s4> bruenig: were do i paste
[07:36] <bruenig> summer_s4, in the terminal
[07:36] <Jordan_U> darkkish, @ http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/
[07:36] <darkkish> thank you Jordan_U

[07:36] <summer_s4> oye and one thing
[07:36] <Nubbie> summer_s4: applications > accessories > terminal
[07:36] <darkkish> It's supposedly checking right now in winMd5sum
[07:37] <darkkish> but it looks like it's going to freeze :p
[07:37] <summer_s4> i am using a different computer then i am doing it on
[07:37] <darkkish> my disk, after burning it
[07:37] <darkkish> some hard to read green text shows up in the background of the ubuntu install menu
[07:37] <bruenig> summer_s4, well get the command over there somehow, put it in a pastebin or something
[07:37] <darkkish> that says "Loading Invalid or corrupt kernal image."
[07:37] <guix> salut carlesoriol

[07:38] <SurfnKid> hoary?
[07:38] <capo> i have gdesklets as a startup program, but whenever i start up ubuntu, gdesklets starts up but then quits.  how do i fix this?
[07:38] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, 7.04 "Feisty"
[07:38] <summer_s4> use the /msg summer_s4 to tell me the code
[07:38] <SurfnKid> Jordan_U, yea but on the works...?
[07:38] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, Hoary is oooollld
[07:39] <bruenig> summer_s4, what code
[07:39] <SurfnKid> oh
[07:39] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, Gutsy
[07:39] <guix> ok
[07:39] <krinns_> .join #ltsop
[07:39] <SurfnKid> ahhh thats the one i was thinking of
[07:39] <guix> hi
[07:39] <nextse7en> The ubersecret ubuntu 8  grokkin' guiduck.
[07:39] <summer_s4> bruenig: the code to do ff 3.0a7
[07:39] <guix> whatcha talking 'bout
[07:39] <SurfnKid> well i cant get feisty to load anyway
[07:39] <SurfnKid> so im scrWd
[07:39] <summer_s4> the unix code
[07:39] <darkkish> this WinMD5Sum isn't going to well on my 750MHz laptop
[07:39] <Jordan_U> SurfnKid, Tried the alternate CD?
[07:40] <bruenig> summer_s4, I just did it above, here it is on a pastebin, just copy and paste this into the terminal: http://pastebin.ca/raw/621477
[07:40] <guix> unix...
[07:40] <guix> ok
[07:40] <mhz`-> is it possible/if so..how to access gparted on alternate cd?
[07:40] <SurfnKid> no, but i should, what is the difference with it?
[07:40] <defrysk> darkkish, md5sum is a calculation so be patient
[07:40] <Jordan_U>  mhz`- You can use parted on the alternate CD
[07:40] <guix> mmm
[07:40] <guix> yeah
[07:41] <guix> that's Fourier Fast transform
[07:41] <guix> FFT
[07:41] <summer_s4> huh?  u sure that code is right?
[07:41] <bruenig> summer_s4, pretty sure
[07:41] <bruenig> summer_s4, assuming you were right when you said it was on the desktop
[07:41] <mhz`-> ok
[07:41] <darkkish> e296e3468358789904097fc8df29609a
[07:41] <guix> almost done...
[07:41] <bruenig> summer_s4, was there some error?
[07:41] <darkkish> that's certainly not the same MD5 sum someone posted me.
[07:42] <summer_s4> it won't let me type in my password
[07:42] <Jordan_U> darkkish, There should also be an MD% sum on the CD.
[07:42] <darkkish> summer_s4 it just looks like it's not working?
[07:42] <bruenig> summer_s4, just type it, it doesn't show anything when you type it but it works
[07:42] <Jordan_U> darkkish, *MD5
[07:42] <defrysk> darkkish, http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/MD5SUMS
[07:42] <bruenig> summer_s4, you are used to the * probably, it doesn't do that
[07:43] <bruenig> it just stays blank
[07:43] <sucha215> is anyone familar with gfceu?
[07:43] <summer_s4> hmm
[07:43] <summer_s4> it wouldn
[07:43] <defrysk> darkkish, the md5sum you posted is correct
[07:43] <darkkish> defrysk yeah but the md5 sum in the iso is an md5 of everything in the iso
[07:43] <darkkish> is it really?
[07:44] <darkkish> damn... that means there was a burning problem. -_-
[07:44] <darkkish> ebkjal;krblerkj So tired of this bullshit
[07:44] <summer_s4> anyone: what directory is the user in?
[07:44] <defrysk> darkkish, e296e3468358789904097fc8df29609a *ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[07:44] <mhz`-> summer_s4, what user?
[07:44] <darkkish> oh yeah huh...
[07:44] <darkkish> crap
[07:44] <darkkish> well i guess i'll have to reburn it tomarrow or something
[07:44] <bruenig> summer_s4, wherever he is I suppose
[07:44] <summer_s4> mhz: user on ubuntu
[07:44] <mhz`-> summer_s4, you mean /home?
[07:45] <bruenig> summer_s4, do pwd to figure out your current directory
[07:45] <summer_s4> mhz: i don't know whwt i mean
[07:45] <defrysk> darkkish, afaIk you can do a diskcheck before boot
[07:45] <mhz`-> the user's home dir is typically /home/username
[07:45] <defrysk> in options
[07:45] <bruenig> summer_s4, look, just run the code, it will work from anywhere
[07:45] <mhz`-> if the user was summer_s4 it'd be /home/summer_s4
[07:45] <Lekrem> how do you erase a CD?
[07:45] <bruenig> summer_s4, assuming that tarball is on your desktop like you said
[07:45] <mhz`-> you don't unless its cd-rw
[07:45] <defrysk> Lekrem, cdrdao blank
[07:46] <Lekrem> mhz`-: it is i just cant figure out the command
[07:46] <defrysk> Lekrem, cdrdao blank
[07:46] <Lekrem> thx
[07:46] <summer_s4> what is the code to un-tar-pack
[07:46] <PwrSurge> what's the vnc server remote desktop uses?
[07:46] <PwrSurge> name of the app
[07:46] <mhz`-> huh?
[07:47] <togr> summer_s4, 'tar xf file.tar'
[07:47] <bruenig> summer_s4, its in there, just run the thing
[07:47] <bruenig> god
[07:47] <gaze_> this channel is a bit difficult >_>
[07:47] <summer_s4> umm... it is a tar.bz2
[07:48] <bruenig> waste my time putting together a copy and paste thing instead of making them figure it out and understand it and they don't even do that
[07:48] <togr> summer_s4, 'tar jxf file.tar'
[07:48] <bruenig> tar xf works
[07:48] <bruenig> tar jxf is pointless
[07:48] <togr> I didn't know that
[07:48] <summer_s4> well... sorry
[07:48] <gaze_> not necessarily, on ubuntu it is but lots of platforms check the extention
[07:48] <PwrSurge> what's the vnc server remote desktop uses? (name of executable please)
[07:48] <gaze_> *lots of other platforms don't
[07:49] <bruenig> gaze_, it has nothing to do with ubuntu, it has to do with the version of tar, if you are using any current version of tar, I don't recall exactly when j and z became redundant, it won't matter
[07:49] <togr> gaze_, is that a difference btw tar and GNU tar, or an ubuntu extension for GNU tar?
[07:49] <summer_s4> what just happened to me?
[07:49] <Lekrem> defrysk: its a DVD+RW and its not working
[07:49] <togr> ok, bruenig answered the question ;-)
[07:50] <bruenig> summer_s4, um. heartburn?
[07:50] <summer_s4> yeah
[07:50] <bruenig> ah go take some tums
[07:50] <summer_s4> hmm... were did i put the book php5?  *thinks*
[07:50] <defrysk> Lekrem, http://manual.sidux.com/en/cd-no-gui-burn-en.htm
[07:50] <defrysk> Lekrem, and bookmark it
[07:51] <geoaxis> hello people
[07:51] <PwrSurge> what's the vnc server remote desktop uses? (name of executable please)
[07:51] <geoaxis> my mic aint working ..even though i can hear my self on speakers ..it aint recording
[07:51] <bruenig> summer_s4, have you run that command yet, I am interested to see whether it worked or not...
[07:51] <geoaxis> PwrSurge,  i thnik its vncviewer
[07:51] <PwrSurge> geoaxis: that's the viewer,not the server
[07:52] <defrysk> Lekrem, and growisofs automagically erases a disc before burning
[07:52] <summer_s4> getting postgre sql
[07:53] <PwrSurge> what's the vnc server remote desktop uses? (name of executable please)
[07:53] <tofaffy> xvncserver (I think)
[07:53] <geoaxis> summer_s4,  any particular reason for this nick (ie summer of code perhaps)
[07:54] <summer_s4> actually, it is my runescape username
[07:54] <PwrSurge> tofaffy: i don't think so.  I don't have access to ubuntu now -- would you mind enabling it and pastbin'ing your entire ps list?
[07:54] <varka> PwrSurge: vino-server i think
[07:54] <geoaxis> summer_s4,  ok ..
[07:54] <PwrSurge> varka: !!!  that does look familiar
[07:54] <PwrSurge> thank you!
[07:54] <summer_s4> if only postgre sql downloaded faster
[07:54] <gaze_> why do you want postgresql?
[07:54] <gaze_> I thought you were doing firefox
[07:54] <matkix> I am having a driver issue, the issue seems to be that the driver in use is not working for my card. Anyone have any hardware wifi knowledge?
[07:55] <summer_s4> well... i decided to give up on firefox
[07:56] <bruenig> summer_s4, your ridiculous
[07:56] <matkix> Anyone...?

[07:59] <matkix> lol
[07:59] <geoaxis> ?
[07:59] <matkix> I've attempted to do so, it has no idea what it is.
[07:59] <matkix> But if you like.
[07:59] <matkix> I will do it for you too!
[07:59] <geoaxis> with verbose mode?
[07:59] <matkix> not sure...
[07:59] <geoaxis> lspci -v
[07:59] <matkix> so pastebin.com or?
[08:00] <geoaxis> pastebin.ca
[08:01] <disinterested> its dead in here

[08:01] <ThanatosDrive> ?
[08:01] <summer_s4> my ubuntu copy is hard
[08:01] <CerebroJD> I'm just kinda hanging around hoping to see questions along the line of problems I've been having
[08:02] <tofaffy> CerebroJD, what problem are you ahving?
[08:02] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, What problems have you been having?
[08:02] <CerebroJD> Ubuntu doesnt seem to like my WPA2 or WPA encrypted home network
[08:02] <matkix> geoaxis, http://pastebin.com/d26106d17
[08:03] <ciacon> Hi all... I havn't restarted my Computer in about 2 weeks by now... I was wondering why my BIOS-Clock has a fairly heavy skew (sometimes up to 15miinutes/day)... I first realised this after a few "ntpdate" calls.... How can this occure??
[08:03] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, No, it just doesn't like your card :)
[08:03] <matkix> Now... it been nearly half a year since ive been on irc... whats the command to login once again?
[08:03] <summer_s4> were is config.log supposed to be?
[08:03] <CerebroJD> will connect if its a WEP-encrypted network, but as soon as I up the security (to achieve draft-n speeds), it stops working
[08:03] <CerebroJD> that could be...
[08:03] <summer_s4> it is /msg nickserv identify PASSWORD
[08:03] <CerebroJD> I have the Dell Wireless 1500 Draft-N card
[08:04] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Why do you need WPA for draft N ?
[08:04] <CerebroJD> but it will only work as WEP up to 54mbps
[08:04] <sleeper> does anyone know why when I load up Ubuntu there is a huge pause
[08:04] <sleeper> it pauses for like 1 minute
[08:04] <laurenw> got a problem, just installed a samsung sh-s182 dvd burner/reader but can' t play or burn dvds with it.
[08:04] <laurenw> it' s recognized in the BIOS and in the Ubuntu hardware list
[08:04] <sleeper> and then after. it starts loading up
[08:04] <mhz`-> shit, the default 3 partitions, / /home ... & swap
[08:04] <mhz`-> what's the 3rd one?
[08:04] <mhz`-> that typical peopel use
[08:04] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to configure postgresql?
[08:04] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, What chipset?
[08:04] <CerebroJD> Jordon, the netgear router I have forces either NO encryption (bad lol), or WPA2 (with fallback to WPA) at the 270mbps
[08:04] <CerebroJD> Broadcom 43something (checking)
[08:05] <laurenw> hej everybody
[08:05] <laurenw> got a problem, just installed a samsung sh-s182 dvd burner/reader but can' t play or burn dvds with it.
[08:05] <laurenw> it' s recognized in the BIOS and in the Ubuntu hardware list
[08:05] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, No wonder...
[08:05] <CerebroJD> 4328
[08:05] <summer_s4> cam someone tell me how to configure postgre sql?
[08:05] <matkix> geoaxis, That give you somewhere to start?
[08:05] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Did you grad the firmware or are you using NDISwrapper?
[08:05] <CerebroJD> ndiswrapper
[08:06] <ciacon> laurenw: yeah - I have a Plextor 716A DVD-2xLayer DVD burner that hardly even recognizes real cds... problem not present on winxp
[08:06] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to make a third workplace?
[08:06] <timewriter> hi
[08:06] <CerebroJD> I wonder if dell has actual native drivers out for it yet
[08:06] <mhz`-> Jordan_U, what are the 3 common partitions made? my brain is going dumb... / /home and ...
[08:06] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, I don't know if NDISwrapper supports draft N ( I don't know about bcm43xx driver either though )
[08:06] <laurenw> ciacon > are you able to solve the problem?
[08:06] <codecaine> is there a program that rips dvds to avis fast without the sound being out of sync?
[08:06] <timewriter> summer_s4, right click on the panel , then properties
[08:06] <Jordan_U> mhz`-, /boot ?
[08:06] <mhz`-> hmm
[08:06] <mhz`-> true
[08:07] <timewriter> and u have there number of workplaces
[08:07] <Jordan_U> mhz`-, But that usually isn't needed
[08:07] <laurenw> codecaine > dvdshrink with wine?
[08:07] <CerebroJD> Jordan_U, thats a good point... I didnt look into that really, just assumed that if it worked for a/b/g that it would for N
[08:07] <CerebroJD> hmm
[08:07] <mhz`-> i'm tring to think what i did on my lappy
[08:07] <timewriter> anyone installed xchat from source on feisty ?
[08:07] <Jordan_U> mhz`-, Unless your / is ReiserFS or something
[08:07] <mhz`-> b/c i'm allocating like 26gb
[08:07] <summer_s4> ok i just added 23 work places
[08:07] <timewriter> nice 1
[08:07] <defrysk> timewriter, what would be the point of doing so ?
[08:07] <codecaine> dvdshrink only rips them to vobs laurenw
[08:07] <timewriter> why u need 23 anyway ?
[08:07] <mhz`-> figured like 7gb / 10gb /home 2gb swap
[08:07] <matkix> So what do you do when you can't get to anything but an exe for a driver? Can you locate it somewhere in the windows system files?
[08:07] <summer_s4> i dunno
[08:07] <bruenig> codecaine, dvdrip acidrip, although both of those I have found to have bugs, I don't think development has kept up with mencoder changes
[08:07] <laurenw> hmm who can help me with this,
[08:07] <laurenw> got a problem, just installed a samsung sh-s182 dvd burner/reader but can' t play or burn dvds with it.
[08:07] <laurenw> it' s recognized in the BIOS and in the Ubuntu hardware list
[08:08] <timewriter> defrysk, i dont like the version reply i get if i install it from repos
[08:08] <ciacon> laurenw: sadly I don't have a real clue, but as my research work on this has shown, Hardware-manufactorers make their (firmware &) drivers to adjust to windows bugs and not the other way around...
[08:08] <codecaine> bruenig thanks
[08:08] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Also try the native drivers, they probably don't support your card yet ( broadcom gives no documentation so everything must be reverse engineered ) but it's worth a try
[08:08] <CerebroJD> What do you mean the native ones?
[08:08] <timewriter> summer_s4, sorry , right click in the workspaces
[08:08] <CerebroJD> wext?
[08:08] <summer_s4> 1 to play runescape, 1 to compile Postgre SQL, 1 to do php and apachi, 1 for firefox setup, and the rest for miscolanious reasons
[08:08] <laurenw> ciacon: but it' s weird I never had problems with dvd burners intill this one
[08:09] <laurenw> untill
[08:09] <timewriter> well , i compiled xchat from source , and it works
[08:09] <timewriter> BUT
[08:09] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Ubuntu comes with broadcom drivers, it just needs the firmware for your card ( and broadcom won't even let them distribute that so you have to grab it yourself with apt )
[08:09] <mhz`-> jordan, for 26gb open...how would you break that down?
[08:09] <timewriter> i dont have the xchat icon , in the Applications > Internet tab
[08:09] <matkix> geoaxis, Still kickin?
[08:09] <summer_s4> anyone know were a good ubuntu IRC chat thingy is?
[08:09] <mhz`-> xchat
[08:09] <mhz`-> ksirc
[08:09] <matkix> So install it via the repos
[08:10] <mhz`-> konversion
[08:10] <mhz`-> bitchx, irssi
[08:10] <CerebroJD> hmm, Jordan_U, would you know of any walkthroughs/tutorials on how to set those up?
[08:10] <mhz`-> there's a bunch
[08:10] <matkix> Go to package manager search xchat
[08:10] <bastidraZor> konversation
[08:10] <mhz`-> cerebro, a broadcom wirless?
[08:10] <bastidraZor> there is no konversion ;)
[08:10] <CerebroJD> mhz`-, yes
[08:10] <matkix> summer_s4, search xchat in package manager
[08:10] <timewriter> sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:10] <matkix> or that
[08:10] <matkix> :)
[08:10] <summer_s4> huh?  Which thing do i download?
[08:10] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, It is easy to set up if you do it before NDISwrapper, just "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter"
[08:10] <mhz`-> hang on, i got a broadcome 4318
[08:10] <mhz`-> there ya go
[08:11] <mhz`-> if that doesn't work, there's another thing you can try
[08:11] <mhz`-> let me grab the link
[08:11] <CerebroJD> Jordan_U, I've done that before, but I think I did it as part of the ndiswrapper stuff
[08:11] <matkix> summer_s4, Open a ssh window, or terminal and type "sudo apt-get install xchat"
[08:11] <conor_peecee> I have gotten wifi to work with linux and an AirPort Extreme
[08:11] <CerebroJD> :-/
[08:11] <timewriter> summer_s4, dont try to download any xchat version
[08:11] <summer_s4> ok
[08:11] <summer_s4> why?
[08:11] <timewriter> just install the ubuntu version
[08:11] <timewriter> coz u cant compile it
[08:11] <matkix> The ubuntu one works great with ubuntu!
[08:11] <matkix> Thats why.
[08:11] <Kprofthreat> Alright, that's it. How do I get rid of this **** alt + click combo PERMANENTLY
[08:11] <timewriter> yes it works great
[08:11] <summer_s4> were do i download it?
[08:11] <mhz`-> CerebroJD, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[08:12] <snail_> http://pb.adullamirc.net/82
[08:12] <matkix> summer_s4, Open a ssh window, or terminal and type "sudo apt-get install xchat"
[08:12] <ReSpEcT> how long should it take to install doing the text version
[08:12] <mhz`-> look there, i'm gonna try and find another
[08:12] <matkix> I just told you...
[08:12] <CerebroJD> how does one uninstall ndiswrapper then?
[08:12] <timewriter> summer_s4, type in terminal sudo apt-get install xchat
[08:12] <timewriter> and there you go
[08:12] <snail_> I'm having apt-get issues , http://pb.adullamirc.net/82 , anyone have an idea
[08:12] <matkix> summer_s4, If you do what i said above it will download and install it for you.
[08:12] <Kprofthreat> Alright, that's it. How do I get rid of this **** alt + click combo (moving windows) PERMANENTLY
[08:13] <matkix> Well... anyone else here willing to help me with my wifi card... geoaxis went afk after he started to help me...
[08:13] <mhz`-> CerebroJD, go into synaptics (system > administration >synaptics) and search for ndis
[08:13] <timewriter> clearlooks osx theme , looks great on gnome
[08:13] <mhz`-> right click on it
[08:13] <geoaxis> matkix,  oops sorry was looking on other screen
[08:13] <ciacon> laurenw: true - I noticed, that a lot of interesting bugs occure on linux.... my alltime favorite was a HDD-Bug years back. Aparently this HDD was a small bit (lets call it - off spec)... Basicly it had a special ATA-Command, that would put it into Firmware update... so and so many KB it would then recieve... on more byte... and the HDD would reformat... Linix kernel managed to call this during bootup - and when asking for FS on the HDD - it
[08:13] <ciacon> would burn the Firmware... and REFORMAT ;-).... The bug was hardly known to the mnufacturor, as "Windows does not have theese problems - the source of problems must be this absurd linux Kernel"
[08:13] <matkix> oh
[08:13] <Kprofthreat> ...
[08:13] <matkix> haha
[08:13] <matkix> its cool
[08:13] <summer_s4> does anyone here know of a linux browser using the trident browser shell?
[08:13] <matkix> geoaxis, pm?
[08:14] <gaze_> summer_s4: That's windows
[08:14] <summer_s4> ratz
[08:14] <gaze_> why?
[08:14] <gaze_> mshtml is crap
[08:14] <geoaxis> matkix,  is it the second last one
[08:14] <ReSpEcT> gaze, how long should it take installing from the text cd
[08:15] <mhz`-> text cd?
[08:15] <gaze_> depends on the machine
[08:15] <mhz`-> what's the text cd?
[08:15] <gaze_> text install cd
[08:15] <matkix> geoaxis, So where will that put us?
[08:15] <mhz`-> alternate install?
[08:15] <gaze_> is it stuck?
[08:15] <CerebroJD> I just uninstall ndiswrapper then?
[08:15] <mhz`-> follow the guide
[08:15] <geoaxis> matkix,  ok now do this
[08:15] <mhz`-> it should help
[08:15] <conorkirkpatrick> What command can show me how much free space I have>
[08:16] <conorkirkpatrick> ?*
[08:16] <ReSpEcT> yes that thing it has been configuring language pack en base for like 15 minutes now
[08:16] <gaze_> df
[08:16] <bastidraZor> df -h
[08:16] <summer_s4> does anyone here know how to compile thunderbird?
[08:16] <geoaxis> as root , do a dmesg -c (clean  kerbel messages) and then take out your card and insert it ..and do dmesg (paste the out put on screen)
[08:16] <gaze_> summer_s4: Why do you want to compile it?
[08:16] <summer_s4> wait.  I gotta download it
[08:16] <bastidraZor> summer_s4, apt-get does all this for you
[08:16] <snail_> i'm having weird things happen when i try to sudo apt-get install / remove netbeans , you can see the output at http://pb.adullamirc.net/82 , anyone have any thing I can do
[08:16] <summer_s4> how do i download it?
[08:16] <Jordan_U__> CerebroJD, I think you need to remove NDISwrapper to use it ( though you don't have to remove it to use NDISwrapper which is why I always suggest trying it first )
[08:17] <matkix> geoaxis, Can we go pm so it will be less work to follow and document for later?
[08:17] <mhz`-> hmm brb
[08:17] <Jordan_U__> CerebroJD, But since it is a draft N card they probably havn't had time to reverse-engineer it yet
[08:17] <gaze_> sudo aptitude install thunderbird
[08:17] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to install thunderbird?
[08:17] <varka> summer_s4: sudo apt-get install thunderbird
[08:17] <varka> summer_s4: sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
[08:17] <summer_s4> thanks
[08:17] <matkix> summer_s4, Click system administration package manager its a gui of all the software you will need.
[08:17] <defrysk> !thunderbird summer_s4
[08:17] <varka> summer_s4: second is the right one
[08:17] <ahron> does the kernel have any alternate driver modules for usb? because my transfer speeds are very slow. i think the modules loaded for it are the cause
[08:18] <defrysk> !thunderbird | summer_s4

[08:19] <summer_s4> mozilla seabird
[08:20] <varka> summer_s4: what is seabird??
[08:20] <ReSpEcT> bastidraZor, this seemed to be the only cd working so far
[08:20] <kbrosnan> SeaMonkey 10 to 1
[08:20] <summer_s4> oh
[08:20] <bastidraZor> ReSpEcT, i tried the DVD first..which locked up. then d/l the cd version which is what i successfully installed with
[08:20] <summer_s4> well... how do i install it
[08:20] <ahron> whta is mozilla seabird google doesnt find much
[08:21] <summer_s4> it is seamonkey

[08:21] <gaze_> for all your installation needs
[08:21] <summer_s4> huh?  I don't see your pm
[08:21] <kbrosnan> summer_s4: seamonkey is installed the same way firefox is, untar it and run the seamonkey script
[08:21] <gaze_> uugh.
[08:21] <ahron> seamonkey is easy to install you can dl the binarys from mozilla

[08:22] <CerebroJD> Jordan_U, ok, I'm going to uninstall ndiswrapper
[08:22] <ReSpEcT> have tried ultimate,desktop, and now alternate and have made the most progess with alternate altough i can still here the harddrive working i am just wondering how many words is in the english lanuage
[08:22] <bastidraZor> funny how people do not learn .. just want the commands given to them
[08:22] <gaze_>  look, for ANYTHING you want to install
[08:22] <gaze_>  go to the terminal
[08:22] <gaze_>  go "sudo aptitude search x" where x is what you're looking for
[08:22] <gaze_>  pick the one in the list that looks closest to what you're looking for
[08:22] <gaze_>  and then go "sudo aptitude install y" where y is the name in the first column that corresponds to what you're looking for
[08:23] <matkix> geoaxis, I have done that... pastebin?
[08:23] <bastidraZor> ReSpEcT, it shouldn't take more than 20-30 minutes for the total install..
[08:23] <bastidraZor> ReSpEcT, maybe it is trying to figure out grammar?
[08:23] <matkix> geoaxis, http://pastebin.com/m40e3731d
[08:23] <conorkirkpatrick> This: # apt-get install linux-image-686 gives me this: http://pastebin.ca/621501 (In the paste, it says figlet, but the kernel gives me the same error)
[08:23] <ReSpEcT> going on close to 45 minutes now and i think i am being leinant
[08:23] <Vsop_Vsop> loaded the new 7.4 and it comes up with the error crocode5.fw not available or load failed
[08:23] <Jordan_U__> ReSpEcT, If it goes on too long you can try to quit it or exit out to the main menu somehow, It shouldn't hurt anything to stop while configuring a package and if grub has been set up already then it should boot into a fixable system
[08:23] <summer_s4> i really don't get what you are trying to tell me
[08:23] <jonathan_> still can't to install ubuntu-studio using apt-get
[08:24] <geoaxis> matkix,  ok

[08:27] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, Did it ever work?
[08:28] <geoaxis> (well try to guess what chip it uses and get ndiswrapper working if possible)
[08:28] <Vsop_Vsop> ya 6.10
[08:28] <conorkirkpatrick> ack
[08:28] <matkix> geoaxis, Well the card is inside the laptop... so its hard to tell
[08:28] <Vsop_Vsop> just did 7.4 like 2o mins ago
[08:28] <summer_s4> how do i un-tar something?
[08:28] <ReSpEcT> Jordan_u, tried that and none of that worked i am on the select and install software menu
[08:28] <matkix> But I think I know the chip, lemmie get the info
[08:28] <geoaxis> matkix,  ouch
[08:28] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, Is this on the LiveCD or the actual install?
[08:28] <kijjaz> I'm on Ubuntu Feisty. I was successful using Canon's CanoScan scanner with Ubuntu on other computers,
[08:28] <matkix> geoaxis,  hold just for a min
[08:28] <conorkirkpatrick> Ubuntu says (while trying to install the kernel) that there is no space left! But the drive has MORE than enough room for it
[08:28] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: what graphics card do you have?
[08:29] <geoaxis> matkix,  ok wats the laptop's make
[08:29] <bastidraZor> summer_s4, http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/bashref/
[08:29] <matkix> geoaxis, Ra stands for what...
[08:29] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: first off, type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:29] <matkix> I forget
[08:29] <kijjaz> But with this new ACER notebook, it only give out 100% black outputs -_-..
[08:29] <Jordan_U> conorkirkpatrick, Do you have a separate /boot?
[08:29] <matkix> Its who makes the chip
[08:29] <Vsop_Vsop> Nubbie ati x1400
[08:29] <matkix> geoaxis, Averatec 2300
[08:29] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, Ahh, ati...
[08:30] <Vsop_Vsop> Meh i know.. but never had issues b4
[08:30] <conorkirkpatrick> Jordan_U: I just followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH
[08:30] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: and select the "ati" driver. the rest you should leave default, until you get to the resolutions. choose your monitor's native resolution, nothing higher.
[08:30] <matkix> geoaxis, I think the chip on the card is  "Ra rt2571wf"
[08:30] <CerebroJD> Jordan_U, how would I know that ndiswrapper is disabled?
[08:30] <Vsop_Vsop> i have not installed anyhting yet..
[08:30] <sebagua> hi
[08:30] <conorkirkpatrick> sebagua: hi
[08:30] <Vsop_Vsop> Clean sofar.. just did the updates for 6.10 then installed 7.4
[08:30] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, I don't really know.
[08:31] <rolfen> anyone here has experience on both altq on freebsd and tc on linux?
[08:31] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: and now your x isn't working.
[08:31] <eonflare> When I start up a zsh session under Ubuntu Feisty, it seems like the keymap is incorrect.  (Backspace does nothing, delete is ~, etc...)

[08:31] <eonflare> Anyone know what could be up with that?
[08:31] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: ctrl alt F6, log in, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[08:31] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, Try installing xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:31] <Vsop_Vsop> K,,
[08:32] <Vsop_Vsop> see what happens
[08:32] <Nubbie> Jordan_U: lets just get him a working session first.
[08:32] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, use -phigh and it will ask a lot fewer questions
[08:32] <Vsop_Vsop> lol
[08:32] <conorkirkpatrick> Ubuntu says (while trying to install the kernel) that there is no space left! But the drive has MORE than enough room for it

[08:32] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, For my card I required fglrx FOR a working session

[08:32] <summer_s4> interesting
[08:33] <Nubbie> !works for me
[08:33] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. 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.
[08:33] <bastidraZor> heh
[08:33] <Nubbie> ati drivers work essentially for every card ati has ever made. it is the mesa of ati.
[08:33] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, Not mine
[08:33] <CerebroJD> how do I restart Network Manager?
[08:33] <summer_s4> i dunno why but i am making my copy of linux as much like windows as possible
[08:33] <Nubbie> do you have a 1400?
[08:33] <ciacon> guys - How can my BIOS Clock have a skew of nearly -1sec / minute....?????
[08:33] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, Not even VESA
[08:34] <Nubbie> summer_s4: it's because you're a good little clone ;)
[08:34] <Vsop_Vsop> Nubbie.. i have like 6 options here
[08:34] <summer_s4> how do i make an iso file
[08:34] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, Don't remember and I don't have that comp with me now to check
[08:34] <bastidraZor> summer_s4, no wonder you have no clue how to google
[08:34] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: ati driver should work for you.
[08:34] <Vsop_Vsop> IE..... SIS,. SISUSB, TDFX, TRIDENT,TSENG..ect
[08:34] <bastidraZor> summer_s4, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/
[08:34] <matkix> geoaxis, You there?
[08:35] <Vsop_Vsop> not an option here..
[08:35] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, You can scroll up and down
[08:35] <sebagua> hi, i don't have the event sound in xubuntu, someone knows how fix that?
[08:35] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: it should be there for sure.
[08:35] <Vsop_Vsop> ok i did...
[08:35] <Jamesinator> summer_s4: http://lifehacker.com/software/how-to/create-iso-disk-images-and-generate-md5-checksums-268304.php
[08:35] <Vsop_Vsop> yes.. ok what is the letters.. there is no ATI
[08:35] <Vsop_Vsop> sorry for the capps
[08:35] <Nubbie> :O
[08:36] <summer_s4> i wonder why i am trying to make linux into windows
[08:36] <Vsop_Vsop> there are a few but not one that says ati
[08:36] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Try IE4linux, that should make you happy ;)
[08:36] <Jamesinator> summer_s4: What are you trying to do?
[08:36] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: use vesa then.
[08:37] <Vsop_Vsop> ok
[08:37] <mhz`-> is there anyway to create a partition without a mount point? basically, i just want a normal ext3 partition
[08:37] <Jamesinator> mhz`-: Don't mount it?
[08:37] <Nubbie> mhz`-: um you can just choose not to mount it...
[08:37] <Nubbie> lol.
[08:37] <mhz`-> alrighty
[08:37] <Jordan_U> mhz`-, That question doesn't make sense
[08:37] <Nubbie> mhz`-: but why?
[08:37] <mhz`-> well
[08:37] <mhz`-> hmm
[08:37] <Vsop_Vsop> Identifer for my video card... >.. generic video card .. is this right
[08:38] <mhz`-> basically
[08:38] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: all default answers until you get to resolutions
[08:38] <mhz`-> i got 10gb of free space
[08:38] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, AFIK the identifier can be whatever you want
[08:38] <mhz`-> from my partitioned 26gb
[08:38] <Nubbie> mhz`-: make one of your partitions bigger?
[08:38] <mhz`-> no!
[08:38] <mhz`-> i don't wanna
[08:38] <mhz`-> i just wanna make it like another drive :/
[08:38] <Vsop_Vsop> Jordan: so leave it and hit ok then
[08:38] <Nubbie> mhz`-: but if you're going to partition it, why not make use of it by mounting it...
[08:38] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, You should point people to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh if all they need is driver and resolution
[08:38] <mhz`-> hmm
[08:38] <Jamesinator> mhz`-: If you plan to use it with your current system you're going to have to mount it
[08:39] <Nubbie> mhz`-: so you do want to mount it.
[08:39] <mhz`-> yeah
[08:39] <mhz`-> damn
[08:39] <Jamesinator> mhz`-: sudo nano /etc/fstab ?
[08:39] <mhz`-> w/e it'll be my /usr
[08:39] <mhz`-> :(
[08:39] <Nubbie> Jordan_U: yeah i always forget what letters. so i just go with what i do know.
[08:39] <mhz`-> this is why i drink heavily
[08:39] <Nubbie> mhz`-: no!
[08:39] <mhz`-> what
[08:39] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, p for priority :) there is also pmedium for instance
[08:40] <matkix> Alright.... I think I got left... Anyone want to help me with installing of a driver?
[08:40] <Nubbie> mhz`-: mount it to like /media/disk1 or something obscure. but inside /media
[08:40] <Vsop_Vsop> Jordan: video card's bus identifier     PCI: 1:0:0
[08:40] <summer_s4> how do i make ubuntu's resolution go above 1024 by 768?
[08:40] <conorkirkpatrick> How do I specify where APT-GET is going to install something?
[08:40] <mhz`-> ok, so dont mount it when partitioning
[08:40] <mhz`-> save it for after
[08:40] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, Like Nubbie said, just stick to the defaults
[08:40] <Vsop_Vsop> kk
[08:40] <Nubbie> mhz`-: if you mount it to /usr, the /usr folder on your / partition will get mounted over every time you boot.
[08:40] <conorkirkpatrick> How do I specify where APT-GET is going to install something?
[08:40] <Jamesinator> Nubbie: I think he's trying to split-partition his filesystem, like the installer gives you the option of doing by creating separate partitions for /boot, /home, etc
[08:40] <gaze_> conorkirkpatrick: Not really. If you change where apt-get puts stuff then the thing you're installing won't be able to find itself.
[08:40] <summer_s4> conorkirkpatric: you cant i don't think
[08:41] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, ubotu also has a !fixres that gives that info for lazy people like me :)
[08:41] <Nubbie> Jamesinator: oh he's installing?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> Nubbie, !xconfig rather
[08:41] <geoaxis> matkix,  i really want to help but i am being called like crazy
[08:41] <mhz`-> nubbie, i'm not gonna mount it
[08:41] <Nubbie> mhz`-: are you in the middle of installing ubuntu right now?
[08:41] <Jamesinator> Nubbie: No, I think he's trying to split-partition it after installing
[08:41] <mhz`-> i'll save it for after the install
[08:41] <Jamesinator> Nubbie: I'm really not sure, I can't understand him very well
[08:41] <geoaxis> matkix,  so have you looked at NDISWRAPPER
[08:41] <conorkirkpatrick> gaze_: Well, I am following, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH and I am trying to install the kernel ,but it says there is no more space, but my HD has 699M free, and I think it is trying to put it on the RamDisk
[08:41] <Nubbie> Jamesinator: oh okay, but then he'd have to copy his /usr folder from his / partition over to it before rebooting.
[08:41] <matkix> I think I just found a driver....
[08:41] <pinkrobots> hello, i can never find this thing:   where do i get diskmount please ???
[08:41] <rebeca> n
[08:42] <mhz`-> and / has to be bootable correct?
[08:42] <matkix> geoaxis, Did you see the link I sent to you?
[08:42] <Nubbie> mhz`-: sure why not :)
[08:42] <mhz`-> lol
[08:42] <matkix> geoaxis,  See http://web.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html

[08:44] <summer_s4> this is the first time i had more then 8 browser windows open for a long time
[08:44] <mikey1> does anyone how I can set my resolution to higher than 1024x768
[08:44] <conorkirkpatrick> Jamesinator: Ok, I realized that at the begininning, The reason I did it, is because the CD drive in the computer is so SLOW that it would take forever to do a CD install
[08:44] <Nubbie> summer_s4: PS: hit ctrl + T
[08:44] <SurfnKid> whats a good torrent client
[08:44] <berent> why does my browsers crash so oftenly
[08:44] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: I know what you mean, use the alternate cd ISO
[08:44] <berent> opera and firefox
[08:44] <SurfnKid> with multiple torrents?
[08:44] <mikey1> it's the native res. of my monitor and enabled the restricted drivers
[08:44] <matkix> Anyone willing to help with a driver install?
[08:45] <Nubbie> SurfnKid: gnome-bt does good, why not just keep using that?
[08:45] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: It allows you to install in text mode, without the excruciatingly slow process of trying to install through GNOME with a slow CD drive.
[08:45] <pinkrobots> thankyou
[08:45] <SurfnKid> Nubbie, i cant download 2 or more
[08:45] <SurfnKid> it gives me an error
[08:45] <Jamesinator> SurfnKid: deluge
[08:45] <SurfnKid> ok thx
[08:45] <summer_s4> how do i make the screen resolution 1600X1200?
[08:46] <conorkirkpatrick> Jamesinator: My internet connection is faster than the CD drive :P "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" for me
[08:46] <Jamesinator> SurfnKid: sudo apt-get install deluge-torrent
[08:46] <SurfnKid> ok
[08:46] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: Yes, but if you can't get that OverSSH guide working, the alternate CD is a good solution
[08:47] <Nubbie> does anybody know how i can set up my laptop so the build in screen has one xsession running, and the external display running a separate xsession? they are different dimensions, and my laptop screen is getting cut off.
[08:47] <conorkirkpatrick> Jamesinator: The only thing I don't like about that is that I am running low on CD's :D, meh, I will just buy some more
[08:47] <mikey1> anyone know how to set my screen resolution higher than 1024x768 - i enabled the restricted driver for my geForce 7800 GPU
[08:47] <eddie> hi
[08:47] <Nubbie> !resolution > summer_s4
[08:47] <summer_s4> i have the same question as mikey1
[08:47] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: Isn't there a free CD request where someone sends you a CD via mail?
[08:47] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: For the patience-gifted, albeit

[08:48] <tofaffy> How can I change gnome's defautl window manager from metacity to beryl? For some reason...if I set beryl to start up in the sessions menu...and it doesn't start
[08:48] <conorkirkpatrick> Jamesinator: It's fine, I have 10 left, and I can prolly get more blank cdr-s easily
[08:48] <Nubbie> mikey1: there was a private message sent to you with the exact same contents...
[08:48] <Jamesinator> conorkirkpatrick: Righto!
[08:48] <summer_s4> who knew that gutar hero 3 is comming to the wii
[08:48] <timewriter> its possible to connect to a vnc on a windows machine ?
[08:48] <Jordan_U> tofaffy, beryl-manager in session, not beryl
[08:48] <Nubbie> tofaffy: you ask in !ubuntu-effects
[08:48] <Jamesinator> timewriter: Yes
[08:48] <dev_0> ola, why my ubuntu cannot shutdown correctly
[08:48] <conorkirkpatrick> summer_s4: I did!
[08:49] <timewriter> Jamesinator what program i need to use
[08:49] <magnetron> !offtopic | summer_s4
[08:49] <ubotu> summer_s4: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:49] <Jordan_U> dev_0, What does it do?
[08:49] <Nubbie> tofaffy: or right click the beryl icon, choose the window manager as beryl.
[08:49] <dev_0> cannot turn off automatically
[08:49] <dev_0> it's just hang in black screen
[08:49] <tofaffy> I want beryl to start at startup...
[08:50] <davf> dev_0 probably power management issue.
[08:50] <Nubbie> tofaffy: then add it to your session.
[08:50] <Jamesinator> timewriter: sudo apt-get install xvncviewer
[08:50] <summer_s4> how do i get beryl?
[08:50] <tofaffy> Nubbie, I DID...and it doesnt work.
[08:50] <Nubbie> dev_0: what video drivers are you using.
[08:50] <dev_0> how can I fix it
[08:50] <Jordan_U> tofaffy, I already told you, use beryl-manager in the session instead of beryl
[08:50] <magnetron> dev_0: sounds like ACPI is disable somehow... check if it's enabled in BIOS
[08:50] <dev_0> intel i915m
[08:50] <matkix> Is anyone around willing to help me install a driver, I have already located / downloaded the driver and just need some help installing it! Please.
[08:50] <xiven> Hey
[08:50] <tofaffy> It's in there...but it doesn't start beryl...
[08:50] <tofaffy> oh
[08:50] <Nubbie> tofaffy: then beyond that, ask in beryl's forums or in #ubuntu-effects
[08:50] <tofaffy> wait...never mind
[08:50] <xiven> is bonobo-activation-server really a necessary process?
[08:50] <summer_s4> how do i install my printer
[08:50] <dev_0> can I fix it in my ubuntu
[08:50] <xiven> I dont even know what bonobo is
[08:50] <tofaffy> haha...I just had a brain spasm and realized it...nm :)
[08:51] <timewriter> cheers
[08:51] <Jordan_U> matkix, Driver for what?
[08:51] <matkix> Jordan_U, Wifi card
[08:51] <Jordan_U> matkix, What card?
[08:51] <timewriter> its a;lready there
[08:51] <matkix> Jordan_U,  I found it on their site and need a lil help doing it.
[08:51] <Nubbie> xiven: it's running for a purpose if thats what you're wondering.
[08:51] <Jamesinator> !bonobo | xiven
[08:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bonobo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:51] <Nubbie> xiven: bonobo uses practically no resources.
[08:51] <Jordan_U> matkix, What card and chipset?
[08:51] <cellofellow> The form wizard in OOo Base isn't working. I click the button, nothing happens.
[08:51] <xiven> Hmm
[08:51] <matkix> Jordan_U, Its really has no name.... just a chip made by ralinktech
[08:52] <xiven> What about ssh-agent?
[08:52] <timewriter> omg ati has control center on linux too
[08:52] <timewriter> :))
[08:52] <xiven> I dont even use SSH
[08:52] <matkix> Jordan_U, Ra rt2571wf
[08:52] <xiven> but its up twice
[08:52] <Nubbie> xiven: why are you concerned about bonobo. why are you killing all your processes.
[08:52] <Jamesinator> !corba
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about corba - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:52] <xiven> I need to modify the swappiness for sure
[08:53] <matkix> Jordan_U, Its the first one and I need help installing it.
[08:53] <cellofellow> an help here?
[08:53] <cellofellow> any*
[08:53] <Jordan_U> matkix, I need to find out why Ralink cards are so hard to install when I thought they were Free drivers
[08:53] <cellofellow> I'm not a noob, I'm just not sure why OOo is doing this.

[08:53] <cellofellow> fine
[08:54] <Nubbie> cellofellow: if somebody knew the answer they'd tell you.
[08:54] <cellofellow> ok

[08:54] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:54] <cellofellow> I'll try a different channel.
[08:54] <Nubbie> cellofellow: if nobody here knows, maybe openoffice has an irc channel, or forums.
[08:54] <matkix> Jordan_U, Well... I think its the RT2500USB(RT2571/RT2572) driver. Do you think you can help?
[08:54] <Nubbie> cellofellow: its not exactly an ubuntu specific problem... it could be a bug in their program. check bugzilla.
[08:54] <Nubbie> cellofellow: and consider filing a bug if you find no information about it.
[08:55] <cellofellow> I haven't tried it in Windows.
[08:55] <Jordan_U> matkix, I don't know, it really should work out of the box
[08:55] <Nubbie> cellofellow: if it's repeatable, it's probably a bug.
[08:55] <cellofellow> yes, ok
[08:55] <Jordan_U> matkix, does it show up in iwconfig?
[08:55] <Ayabara> is there a text file for configuring minicom?
[08:55] <Jamesinator> matkix: What problem are you having?
[08:55] <matkix> yes... but the wifi card cannot connect to networks
[08:56] <matkix> It will see, but not connect.
[08:56] <Dezine> I usually hook my mac up to the internet through my pc. All I had to do was share my internet connection and it works, however I can't get my Ubuntu laptop to connect in this manner. Anyone have any idea how I can get my Ubuntu to connect through my Windows pc. (Modem > Windows PC > Ubuntu).
[08:56] <matkix> The issue is known to be, the wifi card will not connect to networks of any kind... its the driver... im nearly sure.
[08:56] <Jordan_U> matkix, What makes you think that the drivers from that site will work?
[08:56] <matkix> Its a dual boot and connects great in win.
[08:56] <rolfen> Dezine: yup
[08:56] <Jamesinator> matkix: Ralink chipset / RT card?
[08:56] <matkix> I donno, Its a blind guess
[08:56] <matkix> chipset
[08:57] <Jordan_U> matkix, OK
[08:57] <Jamesinator> matkix: Any encryption?
[08:57] <matkix> on the network?
[08:57] <matkix> or...?
[08:57] <Jamesinator> Yes
[08:57] <Jordan_U> matkix, I assume it installs from source?
[08:57] <matkix> I can take it off... but i would like at least to use wep
[08:57] <rolfen> Dezine: install Firestarter, it has an option for internet connecton sharing
[08:57] <Jamesinator> Do you have any encryption set up on the network? Like WEP or WPA?
[08:57] <matkix> not at this time
[08:58] <Jamesinator> Are you using DHCP for your wifi network?
[08:58] <matkix> yes
[08:58] <CerebroJD> ok, since I got beryl working on my x1400 (a miracle, I know), I no longer have a 'Shut down' option from within gnome...
[08:58] <matkix> I'll save you some time. its not the network.
[08:58] <Dezine> ok rolfen I'll try that, thanks.
[08:58] <Jamesinator> matkix: See query.
[08:58] <matkix> The same card connects to the same network when i boot to win
[08:58] <rolfen> Dezine: in the firewall menu (in firestarter) click on "Run wizard"
[08:59] <matkix> What query?
[08:59] <rolfen> Dezine: np
[08:59] <luke_> is anyone here a nokia master? :p I'm really trying to get my nokia 9300 working in Ubuntu 7.04 - no luck?
[08:59] <Vsop_Vsop> what the heck is this ( ubuntu comes with absolutely no warranty , to the extent permitted by applicable law   bcm43xx: errpr Microcode "ncm43xx_microcode5.fw not found or load failed..
[08:59] <Vsop_Vsop> and it keeps cycling....
[09:00] <magnetron> Vsop_Vsop: sounds like you have some problem with a wifi card
[09:00] <CerebroJD> I have returned with installed drivers (i assume)
[09:00] <Vsop_Vsop> Magnetron:... great now what do i do
[09:01] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to make my screen resolution go up to 1600X1200?
[09:01] <Jordan_U> matkix, If it does require you to install from source you might want to install rt2570-source if for no other reason than for the dependencies that it will install that you probably need ( look into the suggested packages as well )
[09:02] <Vsop_Vsop> Magnetron: can i disable it
[09:02] <magnetron> Vsop_Vsop: i'm not an expert in that card, but i heard that some people use bcm43xx-fwcutter, but i don't really know how it works. maybe a google for bcm43xx-fwcutter ubuntu will give you the info you need
[09:02] <Jordan_U> !fixres > summer_s4
[09:03] <Vsop_Vsop> humm thanks ... i will dig into it after work tomorrow.. 5 am comes fast at this hour..
[09:03] <CerebroJD> grrrr, I thought the drivers were installed right
[09:03] <CerebroJD> rebooted
[09:03] <CerebroJD> and POW
[09:03] <CerebroJD> no wireless card
[09:03] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, That just means you need bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:03] <bbb> oh yeah i fought with that one for a while
[09:03] <Vsop_Vsop> Jordan: ok.. and that would be were?
[09:03] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:03] <Vsop_Vsop> ty
[09:04] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, It will offer to download the firmware for your card, choose yes
[09:04] <octavarium> wow, ubuntu is so easy
[09:04] <mhz`-> you haven't met my gf
[09:04] <unique> are KiB and KB/s the same thing?
[09:05] <magnetron> unique: de facto, yes
[09:05] <ThanatosDrive> KibiBytes and KiloBytes
[09:05] <ThanatosDrive> Google 'em
[09:05] <summer_s4> why is terminal taking so long
[09:05] <octavarium> (unique): no
[09:05] <octavarium> they are different
[09:05] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, What command are you running?
[09:05] <magnetron> octavarium: in theory, yes, but not de facto
[09:06] <octavarium> i think you mean Kb and KB
[09:06] <Vsop_Vsop> ok now that i have a half page of extracting ..... how do i install.. i thought it should have done it
[09:06] <magnetron> octavarium: he doesn't
[09:06] <DisabledDuck> i have a question that might be kind of stupid, i have the pidgin source, and i'm running a 64-bit system, is there any way to compile the source for use with 64-bit Ubuntu?
[09:06] <ThanatosDrive> octavarium, No, KiB exists.
[09:06] <octavarium> nvm then
[09:06] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, That's it, it's done :)
[09:06] <Vsop_Vsop> oh well lets see
[09:06] <Jordan_U> Vsop_Vsop, You might need to restart network-manager
[09:07] <summer_s4> how do i use terminal to install java?
[09:07] <Vsop_Vsop> hey now that i am at my cursor .. how can i start ubuntu again without ctrl alt delete
[09:07] <Jordan_U> !java | summer_s4
[09:07] <ubotu> summer_s4: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:07] <huy> does anyone know how to get a video statistic using the command line?
[09:07] <shaneed> how can i install kde 4 in ubuntu
[09:07] <ThanatosDrive> Vsop_Vsop: Ctrl+Alt_Bckspce
[09:07] <huy> e.g bitrate, framesize, etc
[09:07] <magnetron> Vsop_Vsop: type shutdown -r now
[09:07] <ThanatosDrive> Oops, that'd a +
[09:07] <summer_s4> in plain english
[09:08] <CerebroJD> Jordan_U, I can confirm that this card is definitely not being detected in iwconfig after going through the setup while NOT using ndiswrapper
[09:08] <Nubbie> huy: depends on what codec it is.
[09:08] <huy> flv
[09:08] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[09:08] <berent> can you please tell me if a system can run without a processor put on processor slot(currently my PGA 370 processor slot is empty)  but something else(which has a fan/sink as i can notice) on some other slot like a pci slot.
[09:09] <huy> Nubbie: I can use ffmpeg but that only display it upon encoding
[09:09] <huy> I don't want to encode, just display the info
[09:09] <Nubbie> berent: did you just ask if your computer will run without a cpu?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Like I said, probably not supported yet, try "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" though or reboot
[09:09] <Vsop_Vsop> lol
[09:09] <varka> summer_s4: do you need to compile java-coder or do you just want to run java-pages in you browser?
[09:09] <ThanatosDrive> summer_s4: I'll tell you this now so you won't have to ask it later. When you perform a sudo, a password prompt will come up, and when you type, nothing shows up. This is normal. Type in your password and press Enter accordingly. It will know.
[09:09] <CerebroJD> I modprobe'd it before I rebooted
[09:09] <CerebroJD> once I rebooted, twas gone
[09:10] <berent> Nubbie : i said there's an emty processor slot
[09:10] <Nubbie> berent: if there's no processor on the board, good luck running anything. as for that other thing with a heatsink, it could be anything. my computer has at least 4 heatsinks around.
[09:10] <Nubbie> berent: so it has 2 processor slots....
[09:10] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Not yet supported I guess :(
[09:10] <Nubbie> (i'm just guessing cause you didn't say anything of the sort)
[09:10] <CerebroJD> sadface @ that
[09:10] <CerebroJD> found another tutorial tho
[09:11] <CerebroJD> uses ndiswrapper, so will try that
[09:11] <mhz`-> does brltty-x11 usually take awhile to install?
[09:11] <CerebroJD> the annoying thing about all this is that I cant copy-paste anything since I cant get to these tutorials on the laptop :P
[09:11] <mhz`-> or did my box freeze
[09:11] <mikey1> i am trying to adjust my monitor settings using the !resolution guide... how do I edit a text file... it will not let me save - says i don't have permission
[09:11] <mikey1> but i need permission
[09:11] <berent> Nubbie: i just found there is something called slot 1 where p3's are put . does that mean i can put one more in the other?
[09:12] <Nubbie> mikey1: sudo.
[09:12] <Vsop_Vsop> ok fixed that issues...now i got this  " knit: trying to resume from /dev/disk/by/-uuid/ Whole whack of numbers... the Kinit: no resume image, doing norma boot...... then it puts me to my curssor
[09:12] <Nubbie> mikey1: but i suggest you use the other method.
[09:12] <Jordan_U> CerebroJD, Flash drive?
[09:12] <summer_s4> how do i install kde?
[09:12] <Nubbie> Vsop_Vsop: did you try to sleep/suspend your computer?
[09:12] <mikey1> when i did the listed commands in the guide, it said something about not being able to create a directory
[09:12] <rolfen> summer_s4: from synaptic maybe?
[09:12] <mhz`-> nm!
[09:12] <CerebroJD> well.. I do have an ipod
[09:12] <CerebroJD> that'd work
[09:12] <mikey1> sudo sh -c 'md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf > /var/lib/xfree86/xorg.conf.md5sum'
[09:12] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, install the kububuntu-desktop package

[09:12] <Vsop_Vsop> Nubie: no i haveent..
[09:13] <mikey1> sh: cannot create /var/lib/xfree86/xorg.conf.md5sum: Directory nonexistent
[09:13] <Vsop_Vsop> how is that gong to help me
[09:13] <Vsop_Vsop> going**
[09:13] <Nubbie> why on earth would you need to take a md5sum of your xorg.conf ?
[09:13] <summer_s4> can someone tell met he download/install code for the whole kde suite?
[09:13] <rolfen> summer_s4: you never used synaptic?
[09:13] <mikey1> its in the !resolution

[09:14] <mikey1> ok
[09:14] <summer_s4> i never used much of the stuff you tell me to any
[09:14] <summer_s4> way
[09:15] <Nubbie> ThanatosDrive: if you consider that KDE is inherently slow, then no.
[09:15] <summer_s4> I got a problome.  Java instalation is stuck at the license agreement
[09:15] <Nubbie> ThanatosDrive: if gnome is slow, stay far away from kde. try xfce
[09:15] <Takmadeus> Can anyone help me with this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=381545&highlight=a2mp3
[09:15] <mikey1> jordan_U ... says that the resource is locked and temporarily unavailable
[09:15] <Vsop_Vsop> Hummmm
[09:15] <magnetron> ThanatosDrive: you may have to run Xubuntu or some other light desktop system
[09:15] <Vsop_Vsop> this odd
[09:15] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Expand the "terminal" or whatever thing it is in synaptic
[09:15] <lukillas> Hi all, I recompiled my kernel, but it crashes when stars and shows ubuntu logo, what can i do?
[09:15] <Nubbie> summer_s4: so accept it.... have you ever used computers before? i don't mean to take offence, but i'm just wondering.
[09:16] <Skrypt> Anyone here able to help me trouble shoot my sound?
[09:16] <Skrypt> !sound
[09:16] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:16] <Jordan_U> mikey1, You probably have synaptic open

[09:16] <mikey1> im not sure what that is
[09:16] <summer_s4> people i just downloaded linux 3 hours ago.  I used to use windows
[09:16] <comodo> can someone tell me how to check for direct rendering
[09:16] <Nubbie> summer_s4: yes i understand, but did you have much experience using windows?
[09:16] <mikey1> (1st day attempting to use ubuntu)
[09:17] <Jordan_U> summer_s4, Look on the window for something to expand so you can see the agreement and agree to it

[09:17] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[09:17] <summer_s4> why does this error message come up when i try to run synaptic?
[09:18] <rolfen> summer_s4: we cannot help you unless you tell us what the error message is
[09:18] <mikey1> hmm, i dont think synaptic is open Jordan
[09:18] <summer_s4> rats
[09:18] <summer_s4> it won't say paste
[09:18] <Nubbie> summer_s4: maybe because you're already running synaptic or another package management program
[09:18] <Jordan_U> mikey1, What about apt-get or anything that installs packages?
[09:18] <CerebroJD> is ndiswrapper on the Fiesty iso?
[09:18] <Nubbie> summer_s4: you can only run one.
[09:18] <summer_s4> i am only running one
[09:18] <brad016> I can't unmount my internal windows partition, it has an error that says it disagrees with the fstab

[09:19] <summer_s4> right click ISO file on desktop,
[09:19] <summer_s4> click burn image to disk
[09:19] <Jordan_U> darkkish, It grabs almost everything from the internet

[09:22] <Ademan> hey i installed the apache server on a computer and it's running and whatnot, i put a test page in /var/www  and I can view it just fine from another computer behind the same router, I have port 80 forwarded to the correct computer, yet computers outside of that router still can't access the server, why is this?
[09:22] <Takmadeus> Nubbie: checking on google ;)
[09:23] <brad016> summer_s4, what do you mean overwrite
[09:23] <Jordan_U> brad016, like defrysk said, sudo umount /dev/whatever or /media/whatever
[09:23] <rolfen> Ademan: does your router do NAT?
[09:23] <brad016> Jordan_U, okay
[09:23] <Jordan_U> brad016, Or if you want to unmount everything but / then sudo umount -a
[09:23] <rolfen> Ademan: ah never mind, you got the port forwarded, sorry
[09:23] <mikey1> any idea how to free up that resource?
[09:23] <Nubbie> Ademan: go to http://ipchicken.com on the computer running the server, then enter that ip in the web address of a computer outside of your network. if it doesn't work, your port 80 is being blocked by your ISP.
[09:24] <mhz`-> anyone ever have their keyboard not work once prompted to login?
[09:24] <Takmadeus> Nubbie: checked it, but I do need a frontend for a CLI program, not a tagging tool. the idea is that it is very very tiresome to write every name in the CLI
[09:24] <brad016> Jordan_U, thanks, it worked
[09:24] <Jordan_U> mikey1, It should be free
[09:24] <Takmadeus> Nubbie: yet thanks ;)
[09:24] <mhz`-> it went fine in grub, the install, etc...go to login...no typing
[09:25] <mikey1> well, it says its not
[09:25] <mikey1> ill reboot
[09:25] <Jordan_U> mikey1, You could try rebooting but you shouldn't need to
[09:25] <Ademan> Nubbie: hrm thanks i'll try that, but actually i've got two levels of routers, http://picasaweb.google.com/ademan555/Misc/photo#5076870108898759058    is basically my setup replace banshee with apache and you'll see what i'm trying to do
[09:25] <mikey1> well, i dont know what else to do, because it says it each time i put the command in the terminal
[09:25] <Nubbie> Takmadeus: you can do batch jobs with this program, but it also happens to have a gui.
[09:25] <Jordan_U> mikey1, rebooting should work

[09:32] <Nubbie> Takmadeus: i'm pretty sure you can use it from the command line too, if that's what you're interested in.
[09:32] <Nubbie> ie. read id3 tags to rename all of the filenames accordingly.
[09:32] <mhz`-> wtf
[09:32] <magnetron> Bryan: Exactly what does the error message say and where do you see it?

[09:35] <Bryan> that is it exactly
[09:37] <Bryan> any ideas?

[09:44] <Takmadeus> Bryan: sorry to interrupt you, yet I have a simple question.... as you seem to be quite popular around here, may I ask you if you know someone who knows a little bit of coding?
[09:44] <ThanatosDrive> Kubuntu, I would say.
[09:44] <ccm> golem_: you are always safe with ubuntu desktop
[09:45] <DisabledDuck> how do i make files and folders hidden?
[09:45] <Bryan> Me?
[09:45] <mebaran151> does anybody know a good mp3 tagging programming that could quickly remove extraneous trailing commas
[09:45] <Takmadeus> Byan: Do you know how to code?
[09:45] <mebaran151> from the artist and title field in batch
[09:45] <Bryan> Not at all
[09:45] <mebaran151> DisabledDuck, prepend a . in front of their names
[09:45] <golem_> alright, plain vanilla desktop it is
[09:45] <Bryan> Pretty noobish
[09:46] <magnetron> DisabledDuck: if the name start with a .   it will not be shown by default, but it would still be easy to list them
[09:46] <mebaran151> Bryan, take up ruby.... it's neato
[09:46] <rolfen> golem_: xubuntu is easyer on resources
[09:46] <mdious> mhz`-:  I think you can configure your keyboard in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:46] <Takmadeus> Bryan: so, by any chance you know about someone who knows how to code?
[09:46] <mhz`-> i  can't type shit though, i was able to once then messed it up
[09:46] <mdious> mhz`-:  look for your keyboard under Input device
[09:46] <DisabledDuck> magnetron: now if i do that, will i have to change where certain applications change the data, or will the application ignore the . ?
[09:47] <magnetron> Takmadeus: do you know anyone how know how to code
[09:47] <Bryan> No I don't really know anyone sorry.
[09:47] <mhz`-> right now, i'm plugged directly in with a different keyboard
[09:47] <mdious> ah gotcha, could you boot from a live cd and do it?
[09:47] <mhz`-> yeah that's what i had to do b/c i can't type anything to login
[09:47] <mdious> speaking of which, if you ssh to a remote machine that uses a different keyboard layout than yours...do you get that keyboard layout, or do you use your own?
[09:47] <mhz`-> even though i setup my user, etc
[09:47] <Takmadeus> magnetron: that's exactly what I need to find
[09:47] <magnetron> DisabledDuck: you will have to rearrange the applications to point to the new name
[09:47] <Takmadeus> Bryan: thanks anyway man ;)
[09:47] <Bryan> When I ran that magnetron, it told me op. not permitted
[09:48] <ThanatosDrive> Takmadeus: What language?
[09:48] <Bryan> sorry i wasnt any help
[09:48] <NaNO2x> does anyone know where the installer script to detect video stuff at installation is?
[09:48] <Takmadeus> ThanatosDrive: any language that allows to make a very simple GUI
[09:48] <comodo> can someone help me everytime i start up beryl in ubuntu i loose my bar on top of windows that has the minamize maxamize buttons?
[09:48] <mhz`-> yup, this basic keyboard
[09:48] <mhz`-> not working
[09:48] <magnetron> DisabledDuck: "hiding" folders is very easy to bypass... for true protection, you would have to encrypt your hard drive
[09:48] <Takmadeus> Bryan: It's OK man I hope that you gfet better in your coding skills tho :p
[09:49] <Bryan> ok
[09:49] <Bryan> Im  pinging fine though
[09:49] <jafnoob> hi! when loading beryl on gnome emerald wont start. I've put emerald in sessions. any ideas how to fix this?
[09:49] <Bryan> Just cant get internet, etc.
[09:50] <Selanit> Question: does Ubuntu have a "debug mode"?  I've been having way too many crashes.
[09:50] <mhz`-> i got it working again
[09:50] <mhz`-> ...
[09:50] <mhz`-> weird
[09:50] <mhz`-> i'm just gonna reinstall i think
[09:50] <Takmadeus> ThanatosDrive: Any ideas?
[09:50] <magnetron> Selanit: when do you get these crashes? while surfing?
[09:50] <vontux> hello, how do I delete symbolic links?
[09:51] <mdious> sorry I can't help...I'm off, cya, all the best
[09:51] <Takmadeus> jafnoob: you need beryl manager, not emerald ;)
[09:51] <mdious> vontux:  the same way you delete anything...just use rm no the link itself ;)
[09:51] <ThanatosDrive> Takmadeus: You can try #ubuntu-programming, but last I checked, it was near empty.
[09:51] <Takmadeus> ThanatosDrive: checking...
[09:51] <ThanatosDrive> Takmadeus: Still is. 6 people including me and ChanServ
[09:51] <mdious> vontux:  sorry if that was unclear, don't rm what the link is pointing to...rm the link you created that points to..where ever
[09:51] <Selanit> magnetron:  I haven't noticed a pattern.  They typically happen about 3 minutes after I log in to KDE.  The mouse and keyboard stop responding, and I can't log in via SSH.  Nothing to do but re-set.  It's happened when I've been surfing, but also when I've been using InkScape, listening to music in Amarok, or playing Starcraft.
[09:51] <dope> i have a "failed to kill" msg scrolling the terminal. how do i kill this?
[09:52] <Takmadeus> ThanatosDrive: can you help me?
[09:52] <vontux> midious: so in other words, the link file that is created, not the file that the link file is pointing to?
[09:52] <RiverGirl_> variant: Back again for continuation of yesterday. Thanks to you, now all main /home sub-dirs successfully copied to another machine. Feeling somewhat safer now.
[09:52] <magnetron> Selanit: i had similar crashes, mine was related to a hardware problem
[09:52] <Sonic1> Is there a way to get around the Creative X-Fi drivers problem in Ubuntu?
[09:52] <dope> anyone?
[09:52] <ThanatosDrive> Takmadeus: I don't know how to create GUIs, and am still in the early stages of learning C. Sorry =/
[09:53] <Takmadeus> ThanatosDrive: It's OK, I am trying my chances at the programming channel
[09:53] <jafnoob> Takmadeus, lol thanks. one could assume installing the beryl metapackage would include it, but nooo, thanks anyway
[09:53] <bustacap> hey all - any members in here can tell me how to set my hostname cloak - I've had a quick squiz at freenode.net and couldn't find it out quickly
[09:53] <magnetron> !cloak | bustacap
[09:53] <ubotu> bustacap: Tor & other common anonymizing proxies get abused to attack & spam Ubuntu channels, so they're blocked. Get a cloak from Freenode instead, and stop wasting your time with Tor: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks
[09:54] <Takmadeus> jafnoob: I am glad to help you
[09:54] <mebaran151> could anyone reccommend a good mp3 tagging programming
[09:54] <mebaran151> that I could batch
[09:54] <mebaran151> alot of my songs have trailing commas in their artist and album fields and I'd like to remove them
[09:54] <Selanit> Criminy, it happened again
[09:54] <Takmadeus> mebaran151: try easytag, it is quite good
[09:54] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to install java?
[09:55] <magnetron> summer_s4: java for firefox or java compiler?
[09:55] <Selanit> Just froze on me - I had to reboot.
[09:55] <summer_s4> java for firefox
[09:55] <Selanit> If I drop out again that's probably why
[09:56] <RiverGirl_> variant: or someone else, assuming my broken boot is indeed caused by bug #106864 and given my broken LVM root is now mounted from liveCD as '/home/ubuntu/chrootOriginal/' what are the detailed next steps to recover this so that it boots ?
[09:56] <Selanit> I don't know what's causing all this instability.  I don't think it's a user-space application, but I have no way of knowing.
[09:56] <bustacap> mebaran151: I found that Ex Falso was the best app I could find (it was the only one that could do decent .m4a tagging)
[09:56] <drafael> hey, if you copy+paste an ext3 partition, except to a different size... and so it shows up as having the wrong size, and more diskspace full than it should... what easy way is there to fix it? fchk(?).ext3 /../.. didn't do a thing :[
[09:57] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to download/install java?
[09:57] <Selanit> So is there some way I can turn on verbose logging for everything, or something?  It's driving me nuts.  I keep having to boot into Windows any time I want to get any serious work done.  Oh, the irony!
[09:57] <mebaran151> bustacap, ex falso
[09:57] <mebaran151> from whence?
[09:57] <magnetron> summer_s4: first you should start Synaptic. in Synaptic, use the repository dialogue to enable multiverse. then search for sun-java5-jre and install it
[09:57] <mebaran151> bustacap, is it in the standard repos
[09:58] <bustacap> mebaran151: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all&keywords=falso&sourceid=mozilla-search
[09:58] <bustacap> I used the Ubuntu Package Search in Firefox for that one..
[09:58] <bustacap> (I am assuming that you are using Gnome)
[09:59] <drafael> any ideas about the fix partition thing? or do I have to copy + paste it manually ;-;
[09:59] <drafael> (the files)
[09:59] <summer_s4> back them up
[09:59] <magnetron> don't pm me summer_s4, thank you. you will have to start Synaptic, it's in the System menu.
[09:59] <summer_s4> I got a synaptic error
[10:00] <summer_s4> dpkg thing and chatch=open()
[10:01] <user1_> how do i use iptables-restore to load a firewall file?
[10:01] <Juiceman> HELLO

[10:03] <drafael> guess it's manual copy+paste time then... 220000+ image files, I was hoping I could just repair it and not do this all over again -__________________-
[10:03] <Juiceman> ok so i have a very small problem with my ubuntu on my home desktop system

[10:04] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[10:05] <Juiceman> anyone may help?
[10:06] <summer_s4> anyone know how to install apachi http server and php5 onto ubuntu?
[10:06] <Ademan> ubuntu doesn't have a firewall on or installed by default right?
[10:06] <summer_s4> by default
[10:07] <AmiDaniel_away> summer_s4: Easiest way is through synaptic

[10:08] <Sp4rKy> Hi
[10:08] <PJ> Qual a sala do ubuntu brasil???
[10:08] <magnetron> !br | PJ
[10:08] <ubotu> PJ: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[10:08] <Sp4rKy> i would know if it's possible to 'synchronize' screen session between servers ?
[10:09] <hassan> Hi guys, i need help on this,
[10:09] <hassan> for a while now, I have been trying to convince a friend to move to Linux, he needed a new computer so he decided to assemble a new one and run Ubuntu on it.
[10:09] <hassan> he has selected an nvidia geforce n8800 GTX (wich should work fine).
[10:09] <hassan> the installation went fine, but he is a major show stopper. The nvidia driver fails to detect the correct wude screen resolution. we have googled it and it looks like a bug in the driver (something with EDID).
[10:09] <hassan> note: he is using a DVI connection for his screen.
[10:09] <hassan> Any ideas?
[10:10] <Juiceman> selphy is a printer for photographs
[10:11] <Juiceman> ok maybe ill ask later
[10:13] <kiss> !
[10:13] <rolfen> hassan: maybe use the generic driver instead... he's not going to play any games in linux anyway
[10:13] <Selanit> Well, it happened again.  That's four total freezes in the last hour.  I'm in windows, now - Kubuntu no longer loads in normal mode.  It freezes about a third of the way through the boot process.  Something is seriously fubared.
[10:14] <summer_s4> how do i install lamp?
[10:14] <magnetron> !lamp > summer_s4
[10:14] <rolfen> Selanit: what's the last message before it freezes?
[10:14] <L0cKn> !say lamp > summer_s4
[10:14] <L0cKn> *.*
[10:14] <Selanit> I'm glad you asked.  When this has happened before, I got no message, ever.
[10:14] <cman456> summer_s4: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_lamp_for_newbies
[10:14] <Selanit> BUT, when I booted into "recovery mode" just now, I did in fact get an error message!
[10:15] <Selanit> I was using lynx, trying to find a command-line IRC client, when it froze and I got this message:
[10:15] <Selanit> 324.642518 soft lockup detected on CPU#0!
[10:15] <Selanit> Just like that, including the exclamation point.
[10:15] <Juiceman> is there any restore function in ubuntu?
[10:16] <mebaran151> I'd like to trim the comma off the end of a large number music tags
[10:17] <maeth> hi, i have a little problem here... i restarted the pc and i found it after a compiz fusion update, in resolution 640x480, wich basically doesnt let me see anything except this IRC, so, i tried to increase the resolution and it doesnt give me any option but the 640x480 one...WTF???
[10:18] <Selanit> maeth: try logging out, then restarting X by hitting control+alt+backspace.  If that doesn't work, check to see if something overwrote your xorg.conf file
[10:19] <maeth> Selanit, all ready tried, i dont know wich part should i change of my xorg.conf
[10:20] <Selanit> maeth, look for the Modes sections
[10:20] <maeth> Selanit, done, i find every supported modes that i normally would find
[10:20] <rolfen> Selanit: looks like problems with some driver
[10:20] <Selanit> Weird
[10:20] <maeth> Selanit, i dont understand
[10:21] <maeth> Selanit, it was working perfectly till yesterday, an update came and this happen :S
[10:21] <maeth> (dont recall wich exactly but i know it may be one of the compiz fusion proyect)
[10:22] <metbsd> what's latest vmware version in ubuntu
[10:22] <Selanit> maeth, it's happened to me when I've gotten an update to my graphics drivers, but restarting X has always fixed it for me
[10:22] <Juiceman> and also why my 3d dektop effects wont work with my ati x700?
[10:22] <maeth> Selanit, allready tried :S
[10:22] <maeth> gonna shut down GDM and X and BRB
[10:22] <Selanit> maeth, then I don't know what else to tell you.  Sorry
[10:22] <maeth> k...
[10:22] <metbsd> i'm thinking about setup a linux and then use vmware for occasional windows action
[10:22] <maeth> Selanit, k... thnx anyway
[10:22] <Selanit> rolfen, is there any way I can figure out WHICH driver is causing the problem?  'Cause this is rendering my system basically unusable
[10:23] <rolfen> Selanit: i dont know....
[10:23] <Selanit> k
[10:24] <Juiceman> nick invisibleman
[10:24] <Juiceman> sorry
[10:24] <maeth> damn... nothing
[10:24] <maeth> what should i do??
[10:24] <maeth> :S
[10:24] <maeth> this is REALLY anoyinh
[10:24] <maeth> anoying
[10:25] <maeth> Selanit, do u know how to change it manually? the resolution? via Command
[10:25] <Selanit> Nope
[10:25] <Selanit> Sorry
[10:25] <maeth> Selanit, k thnx anyway
[10:26] <rolfen> Selanit: do you have integrated wireless in your computer? maybe turning it off from the BIOS can help
[10:26] <rafael__> :(
[10:26] <Selanit> No, no integrated wireless.  It's a desktop system.  But I DO have a wireless PCI card in the system.
[10:27] <Selanit> I think I'll start by re-booting my system into recovery mode and getting a list of the drivers that loaded.  Since the most recent crash happened while I was in a console-only environment, it's got to have been caused by a driver that loaded for that.  Then I can go down the list and see if anybody else has reported similar problems with those drivers
[10:27] <rolfen> Selanit: do you know if it uses the Intel Pro Wireless 3945 chip?
[10:28] <Selanit> Urr, hold on
[10:29] <Selanit> No, the wireless PCI card in my system is an Edimax EW-7128G using an Ralink RT2500 chipset
[10:29] <rolfen> Selanit: ah damn...
[10:30] <Selanit> I take it there are problems with the Intel Pro Wireless 3945 chip?
[10:32] <magnetron> Selanit: that intel card should work great in ubuntu, that's what i've heard
[10:32] <Selanit> Hmm.  Well, that's not what I've got, so it was an idle question, really.
[10:33] <rolfen> Selanit: by what was the last thing you did before you started getting this problem? or is it a new ubuntu install?
[10:33] <rolfen> Selanit: i meant "by the way"
[10:34] <Selanit> rolfen:  It's been happening intermittently for a couple of months.  I'm not sure when it started.  Recently it's gotten worse though.  I haven't noticed anything in particular that might have affected it.
[10:35] <Selanit> The last major change I made to the system was replacing my wireless card.  I think I'll start googling to see if anybody has had CPU lockups with an Edimax EW-7128G.
[10:36] <magnetron> Selanit: when i experienced hard crashes with ubuntu lately, it was because of a hardware problem. i had irq collisions.
[10:36] <rolfen> Selanit: well i'm not sure ... but it might be related to your wireless adapter
[10:36] <rolfen> i have read some reports saying so
[10:36] <Selanit> I wonder whether I ought to file a bug with Canonical
[10:37] <Selanit> Ah HA
[10:37] <Selanit> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709&highlight=ethernet&page=5
[10:37] <Selanit> My bad - my card's chipset isn't RaLink RT2500, it's an RaLink RT61
[10:38] <Selanit> And that post suggests that other people have had this problem with this card
[10:38] <Selanit> And that there's a fix in CVS
[10:38] <rolfen> Selanit: ok
[10:40] <toddy> everytime i start my system i have to type my name and code for two times,why?
[10:40] <toddy> any one can help?
[10:42] <scottie7> when I reboot, the eth0 & lo network devices are initialised properly, but the routing table is empty! what's going on?

[10:45] <scottie7> rem: firefox is slow  ... i disabled ipv6
[10:45] <scottie7> s/rem/re/
[10:45] <zeus> hey...why is mgawow offline?
[10:46] <davf> scottie7 google speed up firefox in linux
[10:46] <davf> Lots of info available.
[10:46] <dwa> is anybody here using compiz and compiz fusion? I would like to know how i can make it so windows remember their last known position
[10:46] <Anton99> where i can get CompizFusion alpha?
[10:47] <scottie7> davf, tried disabling IPv6 in firefox ... no difference
[10:47] <davf> other issues as well. google it.
[10:47] <summer_s4> how do you tell if your using ipv6 or ipv4
[10:47] <dwa> Anton99: opencompositing.org
[10:48] <Anton99> dwa, big thanks!
[10:48] <davf> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/speed-up-firefox-web-browser.html scottie7
[10:48] <Anton99> but there is only compiz and beryl :( i wanna compizfusion!
[10:48] <dwa> scottie7: you might want to check out swiftfox as well
[10:48] <dwa> Anton99: fusion is there too, just check the forums
[10:49] <Anton99> ok.
[10:49] <Anton99> fount :)
[10:50] <summer_s4> how do i get beryl?
[10:50] <Anton99> http://www.beryl-project.org just read ReadMe :)
[10:50] <RealUser> !scan interna/tiny_mce/plugins/ibrowser/ibrowser.php?tinyMCE_imglib_include= "Papoo CMS"
[10:51] <dwa> summer_s4: beryl is no longer being developed
[10:51] <rolfen> summer_s4: install it through synaptic
[10:51] <Anton99> why beryl isn't developed?!?!?!?!
[10:51] <summer_s4> synaptic dosn't work for me
[10:51] <dwa> it merged back into compiz
[10:51] <Anton99> into compiz FUSiON? :)
[10:52] <rolfen> summer_s4: compiz-fusion is the newer replacement for beryl but compiz-fusion cannot be installed yet from synaptic hence it's abit complicated to install
[10:52] <rolfen> afaik
[10:52] <dwa> correct rolfen
[10:52] <summer_s4> for some reason synaptic dosn't work for me
[10:52] <BrendanM> hey, does anyone here use pyNeighborhood for browsing SMB shares?

[10:56] <rolfen> summer_s4: if you fix your synptic everything will become easy
[10:56] <earthling> summer_s4, don't ask for help.
[10:56] <earthling> summer_s4, and don't PM me.
[10:57] <summer_s4> i am to tired to fix my errors.  It is 4 in the morning were i am
[10:57] <togr> then get some sleep
[10:57] <earthling> summer_s4, if you're too tired to fix what's broken, then don't ask for help.  very simple.
[10:57] <BrendanM> summer, this is really easy
[10:57] <togr> try again when you're awake
[10:58] <BrendanM> I've had that problem
[10:58] <BrendanM> just run the dpkg command in a terminal
[10:58] <summer_s4> how do i fix it?
[10:58] <BrendanM> and then synaptic will work
[10:58] <BrendanM> summer, do you know where the terminal is?

[10:59] <BrendanM> Summer, I think the terminal is under accessories (Somebody else? I'm not on GNOME)
[10:59] <summer_s4> too bad my step-dad isn't working with ubuntu
[10:59] <summer_s4> ok what do i type in it

[11:00] <netyire> anyone can help me with deluge, the download stays at 99.xx% :(
[11:00] <BrendanM> after that (assuming you don't get any other weird errors) synaptic should work
[11:00] <Anton99> apt-get moo
[11:00] <summer_s4> how long is it supposed to take?
[11:00] <BrendanM> like a few seconds for me
[11:00] <Anton99> sudo apt-get moo :D :D :D :D :D :lol: :lol: :lol:
[11:00] <BrendanM> it might take longer depending on what you have installed
[11:00] <BrendanM> Somebody correct me, but I think what it's doing is rebuilding the database of installed packages on your machine
[11:01] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get moo
[11:01] <summer_s4>          (__)
[11:01] <summer_s4>          (oo)

[11:01] <summer_s4> ...."Have you mooed today?"...
[11:01] <summer_s4> This appeared on ternimal
[11:01] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get moo
[11:01] <BrendanM> A lot of times stuff on Linux doesn't give you any message if it works, it just gives you a blank thing
[11:01] <summer_s4>  (__)
[11:01] <BrendanM> yeah, that's a little joke
[11:01] <BrendanM> the apt cow
[11:01] <Anton99> yeah :D this is easter egg :D
[11:01] <summer_s4> it says have you mooed today
[11:01] <BrendanM> it's a joke, don't worry about it
[11:02] <Anton99> man apt-get
[11:02] <Anton99> if there is This APT Has super cow powers!
[11:02] <Anton99> then it appears :D
[11:02] <netyire> urm... anyone?
[11:02] <summer_s4> sudo apt-get poop
[11:02] <summer_s4> how do i set up beryl?
[11:02] <Anton99> Anton99	!sex
[11:02] <Anton99> 	ubotu	Sorry, I don't know anything about sex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <Anton99> lol...
[11:02] <irena> age?
[11:02] <irena> live?
[11:02] <BrendanM> summer, see if synaptic works
[11:02] <BrendanM> and if synaptic works, there's probably a package for beryl
[11:03] <BrendanM> although you might want to wait until you're less tired to start in on beryl
[11:03] <BrendanM> I've heard it can be tricky. You need to right video card drivers.
[11:03] <Anton99> how i can set up AIXGL?
[11:03] <summer_s4> it works
[11:03] <BrendanM> yay!
[11:04] <Anton99> and who is different between XGL and AIXGL
[11:04] <Anton99> ?
[11:04] <netyire> anyone can help me with deluge, the download stays at 99.xx%, yet the download speed is >20kbps
[11:05] <BrendanM> netyire, is this all downloads?
[11:05] <Houdini_User> hello
[11:05] <BrendanM> or just one specific torrent you're having a problem with?
[11:05] <netyire> hmm, its the first torrent I tried, its from a private tracker and is quite well seeded
[11:06] <netyire> I've read the deluge forums or part of it, some other people have posted about a similar situation
[11:06] <BrendanM> netyire, it's possible that there's like 1 or 2 pieces that nobody has. so your speed stays high, but you keep downloading the same parts
[11:06] <netyire> the deluge irc channel ain't responding
[11:06] <netyire> hmm
[11:06] <BrendanM> ok, well, then I'd say keep looking around those forums
[11:06] <netyire> maybe Deluge doesn't ban bad peers
[11:06] <BrendanM> people on there are going to know a lot more than anyone here
[11:06] <netyire> :D
[11:06] <Houdini_User> im a new ubuntu user  ..installed it just yesterday (first time using a linux platform)
[11:06] <netyire> okay then, appreciate the help
[11:07] <BrendanM> cool, welcome aboard Houdini
[11:07] <rolfen> Houdini_User: welcome
[11:07] <BrendanM> sorry I couldn't be more use
[11:07] <BrendanM> try at least one other torrent
[11:07] <daya> raphink, hi
[11:07] <Houdini_User> i have a few questions...maybe someone can help me with then
[11:07] <BrendanM> to make sure it isn't just a problem with that torrent/tracker
[11:07] <rolfen> Houdini_User: ubuntu is not perfect... but it can be made to work :) sure go ahead
[11:07] <BrendanM> sure Houdini, go a head
[11:07] <netyire> :D, I'll try ktorrent
[11:08] <Houdini_User> ok..#1...i have a gf6800...and i want to install the latest drivers for that....but i dunno what driver version is currently installed.....how do i find that out?
[11:08] <Houdini_User> nvidia geforce 6800 gt....videocard
[11:09] <rolfen> Houdini_User: what you could do is go into synaptic and do a search on "nvidia" and see what comes up
[11:10] <summer_s4> why do i have to remove sun java manually
[11:10] <Houdini_User> yeah...i did that search...and installed    nvidia_glx package...
[11:10] <Anton99> nvidia-glx :)
[11:10] <BrendanM> Houdini, try typing 'fglrxinfo'
[11:10] <BrendanM> in the terminal
[11:10] <rolfen> Houdini_User: just near the name there is the version ifo
[11:10] <rolfen> info
[11:10] <BrendanM> that should tell you something about the driver
[11:11] <Houdini_User> lemme check where this terminal is...
[11:11] <rolfen> Houdini_User: it's in applications
[11:11] <rolfen> accessories
[11:11] <summer_s4> oh god this takes a long time
[11:12] <BrendanM> houdini: applications -> accessories
[11:12] <_Lucretia_> ubuntu hung again last night, could change desktops with the mouse but the keyboard wouldn't respond. the power management is set to never on both display and computer
[11:12] <summer_s4> how do i get the linux equivelent of the [ctrl] +[alt] +[delete] ?
[11:12] <BrendanM> the terminal is a big part of using linux.
[11:12] <arnath> hi, my grub is reporting an "error 5"
[11:12] <arnath> 5 : Partition table invalid or corrupt
[11:12] <arnath>     This error is returned if the sanity checks on the integrity of the partition table fail. This is a bad sign.
[11:12] <BrendanM> summer, ctrl+esc will let you kill things
[11:12] <arnath> so...how bad is it exactly?
[11:12] <BrendanM> or, ctrl+alt+esc
[11:12] <arnath> is the harddrive wasted or..?
[11:13] <BrendanM> arnath, that could be bad news
[11:13] <BrendanM> have you tried using the recovery mode? or does it not even get that far?
[11:13] <arnath> doesnt get that far
[11:13] <Houdini_User> ok...i typed that   fglrxinfo....and it said..that the package is not installed....i can install it by typing:  sudo <something>
[11:14] <BrendanM> arnath, you should try booting from a live CD if possible
[11:14] <rolfen> summer_s4: system monitor
[11:14] <arnath> BrendanM: is it my harddrive that is broken?
[11:14] <BrendanM> arnath, it sounds like at the very least the partition table is corrupted
[11:14] <BrendanM> that almost always happens if the hard drive is physically failing, but sometimes other things cause it too
[11:14] <arnath> ye, but i dont know what can cause that :s
[11:15] <arnath> ah
[11:15] <arnath> my computer had been acting weird before, crashing after a few hours, i had to reboot manually everytime
[11:15] <BrendanM> if you boot from a live CD, you might be able to mount the hard drive and recover data off of it
[11:15] <Houdini_User> using this new OS ...reminds me of the time when i first installed  OS/2 Warp 3.0 ...over 13 yrs ago...hehe
[11:15] <arnath> in that respect, im lucky, i have just backed up 80+ gig of files from the drive
[11:16] <BrendanM> houdini, wow. If you can use OS/2 Warp, you can definitely deal with Ubuntu
[11:16] <Houdini_User> hehe
[11:17] <arnath> BrendanM: burning live cd btw, will see wot it does
[11:17] <Houdini_User> ok...next question is... #2...ubuntu will not let me increase my screen res past 1024x768....  how do i get it to 1600x1200?
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> is anybody else getting random hangs in ubuntu? This is only happening when I leave the machine alone
[11:17] <arnath> _Lucretia_: ye me :|
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> is it the same tho? leave the machine alone?
[11:17] <arnath> ye
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> re you 32-bit or 64?
[11:17] <arnath> 32
[11:17] <_Lucretia_> are
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> right, 64 here
[11:18] <arnath> ah
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> is yours pm related?
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> somebody else here had that
[11:18] <shack> Hi guys, could someone take a look on this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30082/
[11:18] <arnath> not a clue
[11:18] <_Lucretia_> arnath: have you got got pm set to never?
[11:18] <summer_s4> can someone get houdini's question answered?
[11:18] <arnath> but now my computer won't boot anymore, getting "error 5" in grub
[11:18] <shack> When I'm trying to install software with apt-get instaal softwarename I get those errors
[11:18] <BrendanM> Houdini, here's some info about nVidia drivers: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_nvidia_drivers_in_7.04
[11:18] <arnath> _Lucretia_: not entirely sure what you mean by that hehe, not really a guru :|
[11:18] <arnath> :D
[11:19] <Houdini_User> thank you BrendanM
[11:19] <Houdini_User> i'll check itout right now
[11:19] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: do you have that res in your xorg.conf file? if not, you won't get it to work
[11:19] <_Lucretia_> arnath: go to system -> prefs -> power management, both sliders
[11:19] <arnath> _Lucretia_: can't do that :s pc won't boot anymore as of this morning
[11:20] <_Lucretia_> arnath: ah
[11:20] <avis> what would be the proper command line to tar and compress a home directory ?
[11:20] <_Lucretia_> arnath: will it post?
[11:20] <arnath> _Lucretia_: eh?
[11:21] <Houdini_User> no _Lucretia_...i dunno if that is in the xorg.conf file...i just installed ubuntu a few hours ago....my first time using  a linux platform :)
[11:21] <summer_s4> thanks brendanM
[11:21] <BrendanM> avis, try man "tar"
[11:21] <_Lucretia_> arnath: does it not boot at all or can it get somewhere?
[11:21] <arnath> _Lucretia_: it errors out when grub is starting to load, says grub error 5
[11:21] <BrendanM> wow, arnath and lucretia, sounds like you have the same issue
[11:21] <evm> avis: something like: tar -czvf filename.tar.bz2 /home/homedir
[11:22] <avis> thank you evm
[11:22] <BrendanM> my advice would be to boot from a live CD and run fscheck (file system check) on your hard drives
[11:22] <evm> avis: oops, replace the z with a j if you want the bz2 suffix...
[11:22] <arnath> BrendanM: burning the cd as we speak :p
[11:23] <avis> evm, ok thank you.
[11:23] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: yeah, that's probably the problem then, you ned to create a new line in your xorg.conf file, "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and where the lines are in the "Display" subsections, add in the new resolution "1600x1200" before all the others for all the different bit depths. Adding it first will select that as default
[11:24] <Houdini_User> cool..thanks...
[11:24] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: like this: Modes    "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1280x492" "800x600"
[11:24] <Houdini_User> got it
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> arnath: your boot partition might be screwed
[11:25] <Houdini_User> ok...last question for now...#3...is there a yahoo messanger for ubuntu? the yahoo messnager site shows versions for redhat, freebsd, debian linux only....
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> arnath: try the live cd
[11:25] <BrendanM> it sounds like the partition table is shot at least
[11:25] <arnath> it just finished burning
[11:25] <BrendanM> it's possible the partition itself is ok
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> Houdini_User: if they have a deb package, you can ue that
[11:25] <Houdini_User> ok :)  thanks alot
[11:25] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: or the mbr is knackered
[11:26] <Jordan_U> Houdini_User, Does GAIM support yahoo messenger?
[11:26] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, I think gaim will let you use Yahoo messenger
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> which will require grub being installed again
[11:26] <Houdini_User> what is gaim?
[11:26] <BrendanM> but I don't know about a standalone client
[11:26] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, gaim is the Ubuntu instant messenger program
[11:26] <BrendanM> !gaim
[11:26] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[11:26] <avis> gain is a IM client that supports a bunch of different protocols in one
[11:26] <Jordan_U> Houdini_User, A messenger that supports just about everything
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> can anybody help me pinpoint this hang?
[11:26] <BrendanM> hmm, doesn't list Yahoo
[11:26] <Houdini_User> ohh
[11:26] <avis> gaim
[11:26] <BrendanM> unless Jabber = Yahoo?
[11:26] <aperson> it supports yahoo
[11:26] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: nah
[11:27] <matkix> Can someone help me! I'm following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152 and I need help on a step!
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> BrendanM: dont think it does
[11:27] <thomash_> I've got a laptop with an integrated intel sound card. The problem I'm having is that when I connect headphones the sound still comes out of the laptop speakers as well as the headphones. The mixer doesn't let me change that. any ideas?
[11:27] <aperson> google talk uses jabber
[11:27] <Houdini_User> thank you everyone for the help...
[11:27] <Jordan_U> BrendanM, I think Jabber = google talk
[11:27] <arnath> o fucked up, now my computer isnt getting any power anymore it seems
[11:27] <arnath> wtf
[11:27] <DerangedDingo> GAIM supports yahoo
[11:27] <Houdini_User> once i get all this working...i'll come back with more questions :)
[11:27] <DerangedDingo> i use it every day
[11:27] <aperson> ditto
[11:27] <_Lucretia_> k
[11:27] <BrendanM> Houdini user, it looks like there is a Yahoo messenger standalone client too
[11:27] <arnath> well actually its getting power, but wont start up
[11:27] <arnath> ...
[11:27] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | arnath
[11:27] <ubotu> arnath: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:28] <avis> what are some typical tasks i might wish to run on a desktop to add to my /etc/anachrontab file ?  i've got updatedb down.  not sure what else
[11:28] <arnath> sorry
[11:28] <Houdini_User> ohh..and i need a irc client too.....but i guess there will be a mirc for that..
[11:28] <aperson> xchat is good
[11:28] <Trezker_> I like xchat
[11:28] <BrendanM> Houdini_User, gaim supports IRC too
[11:28] <DerangedDingo> yeah
[11:29] <avis> Houdini_User, i like xchat.
[11:29] <BrendanM> I'm actually using gaim right now (well, pidgin actually)
[11:29] <aperson> wait, you need an irc client, but yet, you are in irc
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> i'm using gaim right now for IRC
[11:29] <Trezker_> Haven't decided whether xchat in gnome is better or worse than wchat in windows...
[11:29] <BrendanM> xchat is probably more full-featured
[11:29] <aperson> I don't like the gnome specific version
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> gaim has a good deal of features... the commands are here.. it highlights your name if it's mentioned
[11:29] <Houdini_User> aperson...im on irc right now on my laptop..hehe...which is windows :)
[11:29] <DerangedDingo> etc, etc
[11:29] <aperson> ahh
[11:30] <BrendanM> well, good luck with Linux Houdini
[11:30] <matkix> Can someone help me! I'm following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152 and I need help on a step!
[11:30] <Houdini_User> thanks
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> Pidgin is the new version
[11:30] <BrendanM> it's called pidgin in Linux too
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> GAIM is the old name
[11:30] <BrendanM> there's a deb for pidgin on www.getdeb.net
[11:30] <matkix> I'm getting an error when running make on an install im doing, can anyone help me to understand the error?
[11:30] <aperson> ahh
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> most people still use gaim because pidgin could have stability problems
[11:30] <BrendanM> and when the new version of Ubuntu launches in October, it'll include "pidgin"
[11:30] <DerangedDingo> on different distros
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> and stuff
[11:31] <aperson> ah, thanks
[11:31] <arnath> BrendanM: my computer won't boot at all anymore, it's still getting power, but nothing happens when i hit the button
[11:31] <BrendanM> arnath, did you get hit by lightning or something?

[11:31] <OPENSTORE> Hi all
[11:31] <Houdini_User> when the new version of ubuntu releases.....we'll have install the whole OS from scratch? or is there a quick upgrade thingie?
[11:31] <BrendanM> it's possible your power supply burnt out
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> arnath, is GRUB failing?
[11:31] <arnath> BrendanM: not that i know of :s though there was a storm this morning
[11:31] <aperson> it'll upgrade itself
[11:31] <BrendanM> Houdini_user, nope. there's a really nice upgrade system built in
[11:31] <DerangedDingo> arnath: or is it a hardware problem?
[11:31] <CheshireViking> !upgrade | Houdini_User
[11:32] <ubotu> Houdini_User: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes

[11:32] <Houdini_User> nice
[11:32] <HopFlash> Hi! Anyone here who can tell me why the command df doesn't show me my root dir?
[11:32] <BrendanM> arnath, try smelling the back of the machine near the power supply fan. see if it smells like burning
[11:32] <Houdini_User> sorry for my noob questions :)
[11:32] <BrendanM> what I call "the bad computer smell"
[11:32] <arnath> BrendanM: the power supply still seems to work, as my netwerk card lights up when i turn on the power
[11:32] <BrendanM> arnath, I don't know then. it sounds like you have some serious hardware issues.
[11:32] <arnath> ah great :<
[11:33] <DerangedDingo> arnath: what type of computer
[11:33] <BrendanM> you could open the case and make sure all the wires are connected securely

[11:41] <aperson> FasTRootdamages: Mixer=volume control
[11:41] <evm> thomash_: try to go dit->preferences and see if you can make "internal speaker" visible in the mixer... then you can control the volume of the speaker...

[11:50] <GamingX> Is this the right place to ask for problems with Ubuntu
[11:50] <rafael__> i want some help :P  i dont know what to do when the google dont answer my questions
[11:50] <Shafto> GamingX, Yepppp :)
[11:50] <Frogzoo> Lucifell: so don't stop it
[11:50] <GamingX> Can I start?
[11:50] <rafael__> un.. i know what happened but no how to fix it :P
[11:50] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: so don't stop it
[11:51] <Shafto> GamingX, Ask away, dont bother asking to ask :)
[11:51] <rafael__> Shafto, did u read my question ? :(
[11:51] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: getting a random hang
[11:51] <danya> rafael_ : thank u .. and sorry I cant help u :P .. I'm a very new user and installed fusion with no prolbelms
[11:51] <Shafto> rafael__, Id ask in #compiz-fusion
[11:51] <incorrect> what can i use to do visio style network diagrams/
[11:51] <rafael__> Shafto, arigatou
[11:51] <avis> i am curious how a serial cable from a UPS connected to my computer may or may not enhance its ability to save itself from a power failure with ubuntu ?
[11:51] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: I see
[11:51] <danya> rafael_ : yea the guys at compiz are helpfull ! especially crdlb
[11:51] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: dunno if this is the problem
[11:51] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: process of elimination I guess
[11:52] <GamingX> Ok...I just installed Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.0.4. I tried to install the NVidia Geforce FX 5200 AGP graphics card that I had,
[11:52] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: google your make/model - others may have resolved it
[11:52] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: does powernowd just manage the frequency of the cpus?
[11:52] <skollie> avis: the idea is that the UPS will send a signal to ubuntu to shut down. Never tried so not sure it actually works, but perhaps someone does
[11:53] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: not sure - I didn't think ubuntu used powernowd
[11:53] <aaaaas> DCC SEND startkeylogger 0 0 0
[11:53] <_Lucretia_> installs by default
[11:53] <Hobbsee> sigh
[11:53] <GamingX> I downloaded the nvidia-glx package and installed it and on rebooting I am being redirected to the terminal mode instead of Ubuntu GUI starting up and I get an error saying something about not being able to start X servers
[11:53] <GamingX> wat is the problem?
[11:53] <PJ> Ubuntu BR
[11:53] <Shafto> GamingX, Okay....login in that terminal
[11:54] <GamingX> right now i am in windows xp
[11:54] <danya> guys when I apt-get install wine I get this error that the package has no installation candidate what can I do ?
[11:54] <Riyoxke> :/
[11:54] <mc44> danya: did you enable universe?
[11:54] <danya> mc44 : yes everything is enabled
[11:55] <Shafto> GamingX, then do 'sudo nano /var/log/Xorg.0.log' and look at the bottom of the document it will give you some error messages, either that or 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' look for the "nvidia" line and change to "nv"
[11:55] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: it's not running here on feisty - is this an overheating issue?
[11:55] <danya> I'm on feisty
[11:55] <mc44> danya: try "apt-get update" then try again
[11:55] <PJ> Ubuntu Brasil
[11:55] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: shouldn't be, plenty of air getting to it as the side of the case is off
[11:55] <mc44> !br | PJ

[11:56] <summer_s4> what is the apt-get code for compiz fusion?
[11:56] <Shafto> summer_s4, http://fusioncast.blogspot.com/
[11:56] <Hobbsee> right
[11:56] <danya> mc44 : still same error
[11:56] <Shafto> summer_s4, At the bottom, theres a simple how-to
[11:56] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: will disable the onboard ethernet in the bios as I don't need that
[11:57] <mc44> Hobbsee: get seveas to write an appropriate function :)
[11:57] <GamingX> what do u mean when u say look for the nvidia line and change it to nv
[11:57] <Hobbsee> mc44: he wont write one for konversation
[11:57] <mc44> danya: what does "apt-cache policy wine" say?
[11:58] <mc44> Hobbsee: well, if you will run KDE there is no hope :P
[11:58] <Hobbsee> :P
[11:58] <Shafto> GamingX, Well you'll change your driver back to the open source nv one, which would have been what you would have been running before you installed nvidia driver and borke your X
[11:58] <Frogzoo> _Lucretia_: amd ?
[11:58] <GamingX> how do u change it?
[11:58] <danya> installed : none , candidate none .. mc44
[11:59] <_Lucretia_> Frogzoo: intel

[11:59] <ubotu> danya: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:59] <Shafto> GamingX, Login to the terminal using your normal user/pass, type 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[11:59] <GamingX> ok
[11:59] <mc44> danya: make sure you have universe enabled
[11:59] <GamingX> Is that it?
[11:59] <danya> mc44 : I'm 100% syre
[12:00] <Shafto> GamingX, Under the 'Section "Device"' you';ll see a line Driver "nvidia" change the "nvidia" to "nv" then press ctrl+x then press y then enter and then you can type startx or reboot :)
[12:00] <nomad111> what is a good cd/dvd burner program for ubuntu
[12:00] <Shafto> GamingX, That should get you a GUI back for now
[12:01] <Shafto> nomad111, gnomebaker?
[12:01] <brico> gnomebaker
[12:01] <nomad111> lol good enough
[12:01] <mc44> danya: danya try Applications->Add/Remove software and search for it in there

[12:02] <matkix> Question! I have just configured / installed my wifi card and I now need someway to manage the wifi card from a gui. Whats the best way to do this? The one built in has no idea that I have a wireless card.
[12:02] <mc44> danya: ... for wine?
[12:02] <matkix> Question! I have just configured - installed my wifi card and I now need someway to manage the wifi card from a gui. Whats the best way to do this? The one built in has no idea that I have a wireless card.
[12:02] <danya> mc44 : nothing
[12:02] <brico> sorry to sound like such a noob, but how do i associate music files with beep and video with vlc?
[12:02] <mc44> danya: make sure "All available applications" is selected in the top right

[12:03] <ubotu> matkix: 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
[12:03] <mc44> danya: are all the boxes ticked on that page?
[12:04] <BashBang> matrix: use network manager
[12:04] <nomad111> are cd's only 20 minutes
[12:04] <nomad111> thats not right
[12:04] <danya> mc44 : I told u yes lol .. I've enebaled them when I 1st used ubuntu
[12:04] <nomad111> gnome baker only lets me make a 20 minute cd
[12:04] <matkix> Did you read what I said... the network manager won't show my card.
[12:04] <nomad111> audio cd that is

[12:04] <nomad111> am i missing something
[12:04] <zoders> to jest polski kana ubuntu ?
[12:04] <Shafto> nomad111, I thought they were mostly 80 minutes nowadays :S
[12:04] <gaze_> matkix: The one that comes with ubuntu is the best one out there, so odds are something's wrong there
[12:04] <gaze_> best to fix the whole problem
[12:04] <Shafto> !pl | zoders
[12:04] <ubotu> zoders: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[12:05] <zoders> ok dziks
[12:05] <mc44> danya: well if you can't find wine its most likely because those aren't enabled properly
[12:05] <nomad111> Shafto: lol thats what i thought
[12:05] <nomad111> ah yes i found it
[12:05] <matkix> gaze_: Well the wifi card required some special installation. So it is not showing up, however it IS working.
[12:05] <danya> mc44 thanks for ur efforts :)
[12:05] <gaze_> what kind of special installation?
[12:06] <gaze_> I'm pretty sure that they should show up automatically
[12:06] <matkix> gaze_: Glad you asked! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308152
[12:06] <BashBang> matkix: if the card works what do you need manage?
[12:07] <matkix> BashBang:  I would like to be able to manage the card from a gui, so I can move from network to network with ease, the reason I use ubuntu, its a gui thats quick and easy with lots of software.
[12:07] <kraut> moin
[12:07] <gaze_> did you clear out /etc/network/interfaces?
[12:07] <matkix> well i left the info that was there before, however there was no wep or other info.
[12:08] <gaze_> okay
[12:08] <BashBang> matkix: k so you need to manage your network, not your card. if your network doesn't show up make sure you have broadcast enabled on your router
[12:08] <matkix> BashBang:  I need to manage my card, I plan to use more than one networks.
[12:09] <gaze_> that's strange. if the only line is is the auto rausb0 \ iface rausb0 inet dhcp
[12:09] <gaze_> then that's all I can think of
[12:09] <matkix> Umm pm, I will show you what is listed there.
[12:09] <afd_> hi! I'm trying to install ubuntu feisty on a ext3 partition on which I have a /home folder which I don't want erased. I can't do this because when I try to configure the partition as / (root) the installer tells me that it needs to format the partition
[12:09] <scoobtits> has anyone figured out beryl on ubuntu 7.04 for ati cards???
[12:10] <afd_> are there any options to force the install not to format the partition?
[12:10] <afd_> I only have the /home folder there
[12:10] <BashBang> matkix: I understand that, I move my laptop from home to work every day and I don't touch any settings on my network card, i just works
[12:10] <gaze_> did you restart after you got the card working? Sometimes network manager is weird about that kinda stuff
[12:10] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[12:10] <gaze_> bashbang: That's not gonna work
[12:11] <alexIdoia> anyone that knowns how to edit /usr/share/X11/xkb/ keyboard layout ? It is fairly simple but no keys refers to the function keys which I need to use
[12:11] <gaze_> I've gotta go get some sleep
[12:11] <matkix> wait
[12:11] <matkix> one sec
[12:12] <gaze_> okay
[12:12] <paolin2> or, is there any other solution to install flashplugin ?
[12:12] <matkix> gaze_: See your pm?
[12:12] <gaze_> yes, and my guess is that since it's not under wlan0 it isn't showing up under network manager, but that's just a wild guess
[12:12] <matkix> BashBang: Thanks but I move to / from un-known networks so I need to manage it.
[12:12] <gaze_> err... wlan*
[12:13] <matkix> So what do I do?!
[12:13] <matkix> :S
[12:14] <gaze_> network manager is a pain in the ass to get working when it doesn't work... best thing to do is tail -f your syslog and restart the network manager daemon and see what it's really picking up
[12:14] <paolin2> is it only me that I have this problem with flash ?
[12:14] <gaze_> and just work from there
[12:14] <matkix> humm
[12:14] <gaze_> good luck
[12:14] <matkix> haha
[12:14] <matkix> thanks.
[12:15] <joey__> is fedora a good distro?
[12:15] <matkix> Anyone willing to help me with that?
[12:15] <gaze_> joey__: Why do you ask?
[12:15] <joey__> i meant to ask on another channel
[12:15] <BashBang> matkix: what exactly is the problem, I jumped in, in the middle of this
[12:15] <gaze_> and yes, it's a fine distro
[12:16] <AdvoWork> hi there. if my windows server is(server1, or 192.168.0.55) how can i make a connection to that in ubuntu. I tried connect to network, custom path etc, but it says it cant find the directory :/
[12:18] <bobsomebody> how do you change the user/group settings on files?
[12:18] <bobsomebody> i forgot the command
[12:19] <BashBang> chmod
[12:19] <bobsomebody> thats permissions only i though
[12:19] <BashBang> or chown
[12:19] <bobsomebody> yeah
[12:19] <bobsomebody> that one
[12:19] <bobsomebody> lol
[12:19] <bobsomebody> thanks
[12:19] <BashBang> np
[12:24] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: If I understood your situation all right, then your only solution is to install Samba
[12:25] <matkix_> Question, Say my network manager won't work. How can I connect to a wireless network?
[12:26] <ironfroggy> how do i use a ! in a command line?
[12:26] <ironfroggy> it keeps being interpretted by bash and it doesn't seem to like it either
[12:26] <BashBang> matkix_: have you read the man page on iwconfig?
[12:28] <sreeram> ironfroggy: echo \!abcd works for me
[12:28] <sreeram> so does: echo '!abcd'
[12:28] <sreeram> (with bash)
[12:28] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 why samba/
[12:29] <matkix_> BashBang: I've looked at it. not sure I understand. I see my network listed... but im not sure it connected... It isn't getting dhcp. Ideas?
[12:29] <sreeram> Does Ubuntu have something equivalent to `Debian Testing'? So that I can keep updating to reasonably recent releases on a continuous basis?
[12:29] <ironfroggy> im doing `python -c "print ord('\!')" and the \ is being sent to python
[12:30] <bullgard4> Samba connects Windows and Linux computers in a LAN.
[12:31] <nox-Hand> How do I check procinfo in command line?
[12:31] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: Samba connects Windows and Linux computers in a LAN.
[12:31] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i think ive got samba installed already :/
[12:32] <Frogzoo_> sreeram: nope - ubuntu has a strict 6 month release cycle - you can find 3rd party backports
[12:32] <matkix_> BashBang: I've looked at it. not sure I understand. I see my network listed... but im not sure it connected... It isn't getting dhcp. Ideas?
[12:33] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: So much better. Then program your Ubuntu client to connect to your server1 at 192.168.0.55
[12:33] <sreeram> Frogzoo_: Ok
[12:33] <sreeram> ironfroggy: This works: python -c print\ ord\(\'\!\'\)
[12:33] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 thats what im stuck on. is there a way i can firstly tell if the ubuntu client pc can see the windows server?
[12:33] <sreeram> It's a bit convoluted. There might be a simpler way.
[12:33] <BashBang> matkix_: can you see you comp in your routers dhcp table? is ssid broadcast enabled on the router?
[12:34] <matkix_> I'm looking now, and ssid is enabled
[12:34] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i tried ping server1  - couldnt find, ping 192... it pinged that ok
[12:35] <matkix_> BashBang: Its just showing on this end... not connecting as i see it.
[12:35] <ironfroggy> sreeram: crazy
[12:35] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: It depends on what do you consider 'firstly'. I would suggest that you first ping to 192.168.0.55. What is the result of this ping?
[12:35] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 it received all packets, so its found the ip ok.
[12:36] <BlackDesign> Hi
[12:36] <matkix_> BashBang: Wait! I lie, it is connected, I guess I just need traffic now! How might I get things to run over the wireless?
[12:36] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: And if you ping to server1: What is the result?
[12:36] <BlackDesign> could anyone tell me the default lettertype in Xchat?
[12:36] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 unknown host server1
[12:36] <GamingX> Can someone help me with a problem?
[12:37] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: So open your computer 'server1' and program it with its hostname=server1.
[12:38] <tijn> hi all
[12:38] <AdvoWork> its already got that, ie from the windows clients i can ping server1 and connect to the server by doing \\server1  just not from the ubuntu network
[12:38] <BashBang> matkix_: great
[12:38] <summer_s4> so much help with linux
[12:39] <matkix_> BashBang:  So how do I get it to take an ip?
[12:39] <tijn> !fiesty
[12:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Feisty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - For BitTorrent downloads, see !Torrents
[12:39] <BashBang> matkix_: how do you know that it is connected?
[12:39] <tijn> !sound
[12:39] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:39] <matkix_> Clients:  	 00:13:D3:83:EC:38 signal -61dBm  	
[12:39] <matkix_> My router shows it.
[12:40] <BashBang> matkix_: but no entry in dhcp tabels?
[12:40] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: This would be a troubleshooting step later. Before, pinging to server1 from your ubuntu machine should work all right.
[12:40] <matkix_> no, just one for the wired side.
[12:40] <user1__> what's latest vmware in ubuntu? can i run win2000 in vmware of ubuntu host?
[12:41] <BashBang> matkix_: iwconfig is your friend.
[12:41] <matkix_> BashBang: Yeah got that, read the man and still am attempting to set it up so I get a ip via dhcp.
[12:42] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: You are speaking about an 'Ubuntu network'. I hope that all the computers that you spoke about so far are in the same LAN. Are they or are they not?
[12:42] <tijn> iam having a problem with my mic, if i connect one, i can hear it over the speakers, but i cant record.. is this an know issue?
[12:43] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 i may have it ;)
[12:43] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: I do not understand you very well. What do you mean?
[12:44] <BashBang> matkix_: I hate to beat this to death but, if you run nm "network-manager" from the console does it give you an applet in the system tray?
[12:44] <matkix_> Command not found
[12:44] <tijn> is there an ubuntu multimedia chan?
[12:45] <Shafto> tijn, The closest you'll get is the #alsa channel
[12:45] <tijn> Shafto, k thnx
[12:45] <matkix_> BashBang: Command not found... Is this something I need t oinstall
[12:45] <alexIdoia> how do I know which keyboard layout I am using ?
[12:45] <Stormx2> matkix_: You sure? Type: network-manager
[12:46] <BashBang> matkix_: sry it should be   nm-applet
[12:46] <AdvoWork> bullgard4 ok, ive made a connection to where i need(by Connect to Network > Windows Share)  so in Places ive got 192.168.0.55, if i click it, i can see all the folders on the server. How do I now get to that location from the terminal?
[12:46] <Stormx2> Needs a sudo, too.
[12:46] <kevin__> which layout should i use when i am using a dell inspiron
[12:46] <kevin__> 1501
[12:46] <BashBang> matkix_: on the console it's just nm; or should be nm-applet
[12:47] <matkix_> BashBang: Its open, and shows no wireless, but wireless is there I can see it with iwconfig and ifconfig and see on the router its connected.
[12:47] <matkix_> BashBang:  Just not requesting an ip.
[12:47] <kevin__> how i remove gedit  completly
[12:47] <BashBang> matkix_: k, go to manual configuration in the nm applet
[12:47] <matkix_> kk there
[12:48] <amimusa> hello, i need to configure my apache as secure server, do i need to install apache-ssl ?
[12:48] <an1> hi, I need to get beryl and emerald to load automatically.
[12:48] <Shafto> kevin__, sudo apt-get --purge remove gedit? You'll just have to hope it doesnt try to remove alot of other gnome stuff :)
[12:48] <matkix_> BashBang: and?
[12:48] <amimusa> or apache2 has some module ?
[12:48] <an1> they work if I type beryl in the console.
[12:48] <bullgard4> AdvoWork: I do not remember as I have not done this for a long time. Try to input "cd //server1"
[12:48] <Shafto> an1, System-->preferences-->session-->startup programs-->add-->command 'beryl-manger'
[12:48] <an1> thnx Shafto.
[12:49] <matkix_> Still here?
[12:49] <BashBang> matkix_: does it show a dialog with wireless?
[12:49] <kevin__> yes, i have do that ,but when i try to do a right click on a text file ,it also hava a "open with text edit ", why ?
[12:50] <ironfroggy> how do i give a user rights to change the passwords of other users?
[12:50] <ironfroggy> is that just determined by write access to passwd/shadow?
[12:50] <flush> moo
[12:50] <kevin__> i have install leafpad, i think it should a open with leafpad , any thing i can do ? thanks
[12:51] <matkix_> Am I still connected?
[12:51] <matkix_> Am I here?
[12:51] <matkix_> BashBang: No luck...
[12:51] <movi> anyone has an idea why ksoftirqd/0 is eating up about 25-30% of my cpu all the time ?
[12:51] <matkix_> I opened firefox and it won't load a page
[12:51] <BashBang> matkix_: what did you do?
[12:52] <sh> I have a Thinkpad T60p. My problem is that the volume keys are not working in Ubuntu 7.04. Last time I booted the live CD they were working! How can I activate them?
[12:52] <matkix_> BashBang: Disconnected from wired and attempted to go to wifi
[12:52] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: no way I know of doing that - you'll need a tool for it
[12:52] <BashBang> matkix_: go to manual config on the nm applet
[12:52] <kevin__> the function key in my feisty on a dell inspiron 1501 sometimes work
[12:52] <matkix_> BashBang: Now in iw its now showing on a network
[12:53] <matkix_> BashBang: I did
[12:53] <ironfroggy> Frogzoo_: no, i mean what does the user need to use passwd on other users
[12:53] <ironfroggy> so i am using a tool
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: you could do it with sudo, but that would give permission to change passwords for all users
[12:53] <ironfroggy> thats what i want
[12:53] <BashBang> matkix_ : k no click wireless and the properties
[12:53] <ironfroggy> i just need to make sure the use can sudo passwd? good
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: you can't run passwd on other users unless you're root
[12:53] <matkix_> BashBang: Did
[12:53] <Frogzoo_> ironfroggy: of course, they could change root's password
[12:54] <ironfroggy> yes, of course.
[12:54] <ironfroggy> its a controlled service
[12:54] <an1> Tried it, logged out, logged back in, no dice. (beryl manager)
[12:54] <an1> do I need to restart x?
[12:54] <BashBang> matkix_ : make sure roaming mode is unchecked and enter you networks name under essid
[12:55] <matkix_> BashBang: I pmed you with what iwconfig is showing
[12:55] <an1> nope, tried restarting x.
[12:55] <an1> still not working.
[12:55] <sonnyjim> hey guys... where can i find the source code for the 'cut' command (i already tried ftp.gnu.org/gnu)
[12:56] <matkix_> BashBang: Its getting a ipv6 .... not v4 why?
[12:56] <BashBang> that's probably your mac address
[12:57] <Theory> sonnyjim: you go to packages.ubuntu.com and find the package cut is in, then you apt-get source that package
[12:57] <an1> I'm not sure I have the right command added to my sessions startup, or do I need to do a full reboot?
[12:57] <Frogzoo_> sonnyjim: it will be in the repos
[12:57] <BashBang> matkix_ : what brand of router do you have?
[12:57] <sonnyjim> Theory, Frogzoo_: okay. thanks guys :)
[12:57] <Frogzoo_> sonnyjim: apt-get source coreutils
[12:57] <an1> ok, gonna try a full reboot.
[12:58] <Frogzoo_> d'oh
[12:59] <Narada> hi guys what are the default permissions of /tmp; i.e. what command can i use to recreate 'drwxrwxrwt'?
[01:00] <Zta> Why does this package exist: libcommons-collections-java?  By reading its description, it seems like a subset of the java rt lib ... which I've already installed, as I've installed the sun-java packages
[01:00] <Zta> Why would anyone be interested in splitting up the java rt lib?
[01:00] <jatt> Zta: it is no subset
[01:00] <Zta> so far so good
[01:00] <Zta> what is it then?
[01:01] <hamza> hey guys a little help needed
[01:01] <an1> Ok, tried a full reboot, turning off desktop effects and restarting X.  Still can't get emerald and beryl to load automatically.
[01:01] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[01:01] <jatt> Zta: is a set of reusable componentens by the jakarta commons project
[01:01] <an1> though they do work from the console.
[01:01] <matkix_> BashBang: I really need help with this. I've been trying for hours! It is now not connecting to my network, so i've moved a step back...
[01:01] <BashBang> matkix_ : what brand of router do you have?
[01:01] <matkix_> BashBang: Its running a distro of linux
[01:02] <jatt> Zta: it's an extension of the Java Collections Framework
[01:02] <hamza> i get the error  kinit image not found something..doing normal boot
[01:02] <BashBang> matkix_ : it's home made router?
[01:03] <matkix_> No, its a linksys with linux google sevasoft
[01:03] <davf> Is it possible to change "Applications Places System" to icons only or is there another menu system to replace gnome menu
[01:03] <matkix_> BashBang:  ITS not the router! I just need to be able to configure the freekin card.
[01:03] <BashBang> matkix_ : k, so we'll go through step by step
[01:04] <matkix_> BashBang: I need to tell it what network to connect, get an ip and share traffic.
[01:05] <BashBang> matkix_ : go in to your routers admin interface, and you should have a tab for wireless, yes?
[01:05] <matkix_> BashBang: Do you not understand its not the router?
[01:05] <hamza> hey how come my ubuntu doesnt automatically connect to my wireless network
[01:05] <an1> ah, beryl-manager wasn't installed in synaptic.
[01:05] <an1> *sigh*
[01:05] <an1> gonna restart x again. :D
[01:06] <devcenter> hello, guys
[01:06] <BashBang> matkix_ : yes, but we need info from there to put into network manager to get you connected

[01:40] <mohit> what is command to get gcc in terminal
[01:40] <BashBang> matkix_ : you need to compile a custom wpa_supplicant according the README that comes with the driver
[01:40] <matkix_> BashBang: Can't say I understand this stuff. Can you point me into what i need to do?
[01:40] <Pici> mohit: `sudo apt-get install gcc` I suggest you install build-essential though, it has all the programs and headers you need to compile (almosT) anything from source.
[01:40] <BashBang> matkix_ I have to go to work soon, not enough time
[01:41] <matkix_> hahah up all night then work eh?
[01:41] <yeniklasor> How can I install to firefox, acrobat reader addon?
[01:41] <BashBang> matkix_ : read the documentation that came with the drivers, and go on the ralinks forums
[01:42] <mohit> it says gcc is in newest version
[01:42] <BashBang> ya couldn't sleep
[01:42] <an1> nm.  Found ntfs-config
[01:42] <gorski> i changed the partition table, and every time i upgrade the kernel my menu.lst brings back to old one. Where can i change grub settings permanetly?
[01:42] <an1> That's a package that should be installed by default!!!
[01:42] <an1> good question.  What's the easiest way to clean up grub?
[01:43] <mohit> see i want to write a program in c++
[01:43] <BashBang> matkix_ : it says in the docs that you may be able to use the stock wpa_supplicant but you will still have to edit the config file
[01:44] <matkix_> I'm attempting to understand the readme...
[01:44] <matkix_> What one are you looking at?
[01:44] <usu516> colo
[01:44] <Pici> mohit: okay, so write one and compile it with gcc
[01:44] <usu516> ola
[01:44] <gorski> i changed the partition table, and every time i upgrade the kernel, my menu.lst brings back to old one. Where can i change grub settings permanetly?
[01:44] <mohit> what about included files?
[01:45] <an1> gorski.  You might want to look at grubed, though truthfully, without an easy .deb and simpler GUI I am not fully endorsing it.
[01:45] <gorski> ok
[01:46] <JayRoe> is there a way to change settings in a program without recompiling it?
[01:46] <BashBang> matkix_ : in the newest drivers (if I had the right ones) there should be a folder for modules, and a folder for wpa_supplicant
[01:46] <mohit> where are my installed applications
[01:46] <matkix_> BashBang: yeah there is that folder

[01:55] <fredddy> does someone know how I can get Alt-tab work with games like Ut2004

[01:58] <wbadger> fredddy,
[01:58] <Jack_Sparrow> vbanait: since you are not getting any help with that question the way it is perhaps you can rerphrase it..  Are you trying to connect to a networked pc  share files etc?
[01:58] <wbadger> fredddy, first make UT go into windowed mode (press alt+enter), then press control+G to un-grab the mouse.
[01:59] <JayRoe> Can someone tell me where I can find a lirc channel?

[02:11] <kiss> hi
[02:11] <IR_Nub> i have burnt ubuntu desktop image when i try to install i get errors it seems its because of my x1700
[02:11] <mbone> do anyone use Azureus ?
[02:12] <IR_Nub> ill have to install in text mode how will i do that i have no option in the menu
[02:12] <aa^way> hello, my resolution changed 800x600 somehow, how to change it back
[02:12] <Pici> IR_Nub: Unfortunately, the live cd does not have a text mode install, you will need to download the alternative cd if you need to use that option.
[02:12] <Hobbsee> IR_Nub: you need to use the alternate cd to install in text mode
[02:12] <IR_Nub> i'm trying to follow this steps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414194
[02:13] <IR_Nub> oh =(
[02:13] <mbone> my Azureus crashes somehow > <
[02:13] <IR_Nub> thats the only way to install ubuntu on my laptop right
[02:13] <IR_Nub> =/
[02:13] <sh> I installed the restricted ATI driver. I want to increase the resolution to 1400x1050, but the configuration dialog only allows for 1024x768. What can I do?
[02:14] <aa^way> hello, my resolution changed 800x600 somehow, how to change it back?
[02:14] <Pici> IR_Nub: Thats what I used for my laptop that has an ATI x1400
[02:14] <wbadger> aa^way, I believe you should enter System->Preferences->Display

[02:15] <IR_Nub> Hobbsee
[02:17] <danya_> guys how do I create a shell script ? any recommended links ?
[02:17] <togr> danya_, two simple steps:
[02:18] <togr> 1) create text file with all commands
[02:18] <togr> 2) make file executable
[02:18] <togr> examples, for use in a terminal window:
[02:18] <magnetron> danya_: 3) start the textfile with #!/bin/sh
[02:19] <togr> 1)  $ echo "echo hello world" > my_hello
[02:19] <togr> ($ is your shell prompt)
[02:19] <Geminias> hey does anyone know if ubuntu can dim displays for laptops?  there seems to be no option to dim it and so windows vista outlasts ubuntu on the battery
[02:19] <togr> 2) $ chmod +x my_hello
[02:19] <danya_> togr : I don't know how to do the things u guys just mentioned :| .. I'm a new user
[02:19] <gladierthe2nd> hey guys - have an issue with openvpn in gnome-network monitor. it appears to connect but then fails saying cannot connect to server.
[02:20] <togr> danya_, do you know what a text file is?
[02:20] <Geminias> does #!/bin/sh actually do anything?
[02:20] <danya_> togr : ummm ..
[02:20] <magnetron> Geminias: yep
[02:20] <Geminias> i thought because its commented out it's not necessary,..
[02:21] <togr> Geminias, it is a special kind of comment
[02:21] <Geminias> and tells it what shell to use?
[02:21] <togr> your shell examines the first couple of bytes of an executable file to see what to do with it
[02:21] <magnetron> Geminias: it's not run by /bin/sh, but it makes it run in /bin/sh . perl scripts usually have /usr/bin/perl or similar
[02:22] <Geminias> not run by, but run in?
[02:22] <Geminias> what does that mean?
[02:22] <togr> when the file begins with #! the rest of the line is taken as the command to execute, with the file as the first argument
[02:22] <magnetron> it's a riddle
[02:22] <togr> magnetron, heh
[02:23] <Geminias> ah
[02:23] <shazbot> hi can somebody help me to get vmware and samba working on ubuntu ?
[02:23] <togr> so your file /home/geminas/bin/foobar with #!/bin/sh as the first line will end up as
[02:23] <togr> /bin/sh /home/geminas/bin/foobar
[02:23] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: i can help with vmware but not samba
[02:24] <Geminias> yes
[02:24] <Geminias> so you could run a perl script without saying perl foo.pl
[02:24] <togr> at which point /bin/sh will ignore the #! line and run the rest of the file as commands
[02:24] <togr> Geminias, exactly
[02:24] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: what are you trying to do
[02:24] <shazbot> gladierthe2nd:  vmware is installed i just dont get it how i can share folders
[02:24] <akos> is it possible to install the alsa drivers from the gutsy repository, but remain at fesisty? i had problems with gutsy, and I don't want to make the full switch, but my soundcard is supported only in alsa 1.0.4
[02:25] <gladierthe2nd> shazbot: i dont know how to do it myself but i can probably find some stuff in the forums for you
[02:25] <shazbot> gladierthe2nd:  thx but i was reading a lot too, but im from germay so it is hard to understand ;)
[02:26] <Geminias> shazbot: make a folder called shared at ~/
[02:26] <Geminias> then in vmware in one of the options there is a way to make that folder shared
[02:26] <ErsatzHatrack> Could someone point me to a guide to the keystrokes for the standard desktop effects?
[02:26] <Geminias> and to access it from your windows vm you go to networking
[02:27] <phanto2> Pici: Stupid question :rdesktop -A -s "c:\seamlessrdp\seamlessrdpshell.exe c:windowsexplorer.exe" localhost:3389 -u administrator -p XXXXXXX

[02:27] <phanto2> ERROR: connect: Connection refused
[02:27] <Geminias> my networks or something like that
[02:27] <shazbot> Geminias: do you have it working ??
[02:27] <Geminias> yes
[02:27] <shazbot> lol k
[02:27] <shazbot> vmware server ?
[02:28] <Geminias> just look at the options at the top of vmware server
[02:28] <akos> is it possible to install the alsa drivers from the gutsy repository, but remain at fesisty? i had problems with gutsy, and I don't want to make the full switch, but my soundcard is supported only in alsa 1.0.4
[02:28] <Geminias> before you load you OS
[02:28] <trickwire> Trickwire
[02:28] <Geminias> there is a way to make a folder shared
[02:28] <Geminias> without resorting to samba
[02:28] <trickwire> hey sorry i come thumbeling in like this.
[02:28] <juan> ive installed firestarter to configure my iptables, but everytime i reboot my pc, the iptable rules are empty
[02:28] <FnuggleMaster> I am pretty sure /opt/e17 is not in my PATH - how would I add it?
[02:29] <banlieue> wee, an e17 user.. I actually claimed yesterday there weren't any people left running e17
[02:29] <FnuggleMaster> banlieue: haha :P
[02:29] <banlieue> how wrong I was
[02:29] <FnuggleMaster> banlieue: LIAR! ;)
[02:29] <juan> how can i configure them so they're there everytime i log back in without having to start firestarter
[02:29] <fevel> hello
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> juan: there is a checkboix inside firestarter to run every time you boot.
[02:31] <Geminias> how do i check what version of ubuntu i'm running?
[02:31] <gsuveg> re
[02:31] <juan> i'll try that again tosee if it works
[02:32] <akos> this will test my HDD-s read speed, right? sudo dd if=/dev/sda7 of=/dev/null
[02:32] <banlieue> Geminias: easiest way would be start menu > system > about ubuntu
[02:32] <Geminias> k
[02:32] <gsuveg> can i disable background change and more feauter within gnome ? i would like install 30 box to free internet
[02:32] <rolfen> akos: lemme chekc
[02:32] <gsuveg> akos: szia
[02:33] <rolfen> akos: coz you can delete your harddrive with the dd command
[02:33] <akos> gsuveg, szia...
[02:33] <Geminias> 7.02 "the fiesty fawn"
[02:33] <akos> rolfen, yeah :)
[02:33] <Geminias> i hope that is a good thing :D
[02:33] <gsuveg> akos: /join #ubuntu-hu
[02:33] <ErsatzHatrack> How do I make the scale effect work with the standard desktop effects in 7.04?
[02:34] <banlieue> Geminias: it's 7.04 actually :P
[02:34] <Geminias> true
[02:34] <esa-petri> s there any hope to get paltalk working on linuxs (I dont like thease wind*ws only programs)
[02:34] <banlieue> and yes, that's a good thing... 7.04 is the latest stable (non-beta) release
[02:35] <Geminias> excellent
[02:35] <banlieue> next version will be out in October
[02:35] <banlieue> it's a 6 month release cycle
[02:35] <Geminias> i'm curious though... my monitor is meant for 1280x800 resolution and that option isn't available through gnomes display manager thing
[02:35] <Geminias> so does that mean i might be running the wrong driver?

[03:05] <CVirus> Is there anyway I could run dapper's kernel on feisty ?
[03:05] <rjune> summer_s4: you'll have to boot single user mode and edit the /etc/group file.
[03:05] <kahrytan> rjune: never said it was
[03:05] <gyaresu> CVirus: You can run whatever kernel you want. Why though?
[03:05] <summer_s4> how do i do that
[03:06] <summer_s4> rjune: how do i do that?
[03:06] <gyaresu> Anyone know where the Xorg channel is?
[03:06] <CVirus> gyaresu: is this edgy's kernel linux-image-2.6.15-23-386 ?
[03:06] <gyaresu> CVirus: I don't know. Why do you think you need another kernel?
[03:06] <summer_s4> i have to reboot the thing over?
[03:06] <CVirus> gyaresu: problem with alsa
[03:07] <daftman> can someone points me to how I can retrieve video properties from a video file using the command line?
[03:07] <rjune> summer_s4: at the boot menu, you'll have to add 'single' to the boot sequence.
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: there is filed bug report about it ... sound stopped working after upgrading to feisty
[03:07] <gyaresu> CVirus: Have you found a bug report or someone elses experience?
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: there is a full bug report about it
[03:07] <rjune> then mount the root partition manually, then edit the group file
[03:07] <gyaresu> CVirus: ...Link?
[03:07] <summer_s4> so i restart press enter there then choose the middle option?
[03:07] <Pici> phanto3: I dont know what you are asking. I dont see anything about going into the windows registry on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization
[03:07] <CVirus> gyaresu: don't have it now ... as I don't recall the sound card type .. it's not on the PC I'm currently using
[03:07] <rjune> there is a rescue or something there isn't there.
[03:08] <gyaresu> Ah. Well it's usually better to get the latest kernel. Or even apply a patch and compile it yourself. (Really easy after you've done it once or twice)
[03:09] <gyaresu> CVirus: You possibly lose some updates/upgrades by going backwards. It is getting better after all and Feisty might rely on certain things being in a newer kernel.

[03:18] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: try installing 'envy' and then do a text install. That will get you the nvidia drivers and possibly help.
[03:18] <akos> Where could I set XChat's encoding to ISO-9660-2? Bacuse my unicode characters are all messed up

[03:19] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Did I miss the whole start of your problem perhaps where you were detailing what you'd done to rectify the situation?
[03:19] <fevel> are the vmware packages on the feisty repositories better than workstation 6 for ubuntu?
[03:20] <gyaresu> fevel: Depends if you've got a licence or just want player.
[03:20] <summer_s4> hello
[03:20] <fevel> gyaresu: well I could get a 1 month license
[03:20] <rjune> fevel: I'm playing with that myself.
[03:20] <fevel> and renew it monthly
[03:20] <summer_s4> is anyone going to answer  my question?
[03:20] <rjune> just get the free license for vmware server.
[03:20] <Geminias> your playing with yourself?
[03:21] <akos> Where could I set XChat's encoding to ISO-9660-2? Bacuse my unicode characters are all messed up
[03:21] <fevel> rjune: wich one? workstation6 or the server and player packages?
[03:21] <systemd0wn> anyone have much experience with the command "DD"
[03:21] <gyaresu> fevel: Tried VirtualBox?
[03:21] <gyaresu> akos: Have you tried XChat's help pages.
[03:21] <Geminias> is xchat a win32 proggy?
[03:22] <fevel> gyaresu: nope...Do you think its better?
[03:22] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to get admin privlages to a non admin w/o an admin user or reboot?
[03:22] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: I wanted to install nvidia driver manually but it didnt work. Then I next day I had a blue screen which says "no screen found" and there were unknown characters around the text. After that I have reconfigured xorg several times. And opened ubuntu again and installed envy. And tried to install the driver again...
[03:22] <rjune> fevel: vmware server.

[03:22] <JayRoe> Can someone tell me how I disable metacity on my second monitor?
[03:22] <root__> Hello guys, i want to wipe out my 160 gb disk, as quicly as posible. Shred is too slow for me. Help me :)
[03:22] <Geminias> use dd
[03:23] <rolfen> root__ dd yup
[03:23] <summer_s4> root__: Do you want os?
[03:23] <summer_s4> root__: or are you willing to install new os?
[03:23] <togr> root__,  define "wipe out"
[03:23] <fevel> rjune: is it easy to set up a vm??
[03:23] <root__> yes i will install kubuntu
[03:24] <Geminias> wipe out means delete all the data on it..
[03:24] <root__> By wipe out i mean tosay replace data on disk with zeros.
[03:24] <rjune> fevel: yea
[03:24] <rjune> I'm having keyboard problems right now though
[03:24] <togr> root__, if you're going to make a clean installation, you only have to delete the partition table
[03:24] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: fevel It's an open source programme that works. Better... nah.
[03:24] <gyaresu> fevel: Not yet...
[03:24] <bullgard4> /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[03:25] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: If you've got up to kdm/gdm then your xserver is configured right. It must be something else.
[03:25] <togr> if you want to be absolutely sure that none of the old data can be recovered, probably shred is what you need, even if it is slow
[03:25] <root__> Thing is that i had problem with my partition table before, and disk does not have bad blocks. So i was planning to wipe out everything
[03:25] <Geminias> root__, if you want to actually erase all data "replace all with zeros" it is going to take a long time regardless
[03:25] <Geminias> of which program you use
[03:25] <Geminias> because it depends on the speed of you hard drive alone
[03:25] <root__> :(
[03:25] <togr> use fdisk, erase your partition table
[03:25] <Genomsaren> I thought the same, because of this I didnt tell that first
[03:25] <Geminias> the head has to trace every byte of memory
[03:26] <Geminias> so no amount of programming logic can speed that up
[03:26] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: can it be a security problem?
[03:26] <root__> Actually shred is running right now. Too sloooooow. Whatever still thank you guys. :) :)
[03:26] <fevel> gyaresu: it looks pretty nice though...I always prefer open source...do you know what lacks in virtual box??
[03:26] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Your errors from Xorg.log are general and not show-stoppers. Look for something in /var/log/syslog & /var/log/messages
[03:26] <Geminias> np
[03:27] <Geminias> i use killdisc personally
[03:27] <rolfen> root__ if you want to be sure your data cannot be recovered use shred or the dd command i gave you, otherwise use fdisk or gparted
[03:27] <gyaresu> fevel: Runs xp for me. Was some messing around cause of a bug but seems very similar. I have lot's of boxes so not a real need for virtual machine.

[03:39] <an1> This system is 1000x better with Ubuntu compared to Vista or XP.
[03:39] <gyaresu> brizi: Modules are in the Kernel source and if you don't know what that means you better be following a very recent guide/bug report.

[03:39] <valehru> harlan_, check the rendering.....also go to #beryl
[03:39] <magnetron> brizi: use synaptic
[03:39] <JayRoe> what program does the taskbar belong to? Gnome or Metacity?
[03:39] <Seoke> magnetron, So do you recommend GAMBAS then? I'm willing to learn the language
[03:39] <brizi> so /usr/src/blah blah blah
[03:40] <bullgard4> _Lucretia_: I am not a member of a group 'users'. I am using Ubuntu 7.04.
[03:40] <magnetron> harlan_, valehru: #ubuntu-effects
[03:40] <gyaresu> brizi: Modules are drivers not already included in the (monolithic) kernel. So you will need to recompile you kernel modules that you download with kernel source.
[03:40] <gyaresu> brizi: /usr/src/ indeed.
[03:40] <brizi> k thanks

[03:43] <gyaresu> Dante123: http://www.memtest.org/
[03:43] <genii> Dante123: You can usually mix ram speeds but like spike said 512 to 768 isn't really much of a gain in capacity vs speed in this case

[03:45] <magnetron> shirish: with synaptic package manager, search for the package and uninstall it
[03:45] <Falstius> I have a dual monitor setup and I want a VNC client that will properly full screen to one monitor, leaving the other alone (as most programs do when in full screen).  Real vnc's vncviewer takes up both monitors and positions the active area in the middle.  tsclient tries to only use one monitor, but it fails, loses the mouse and keyboard, and I have to kill it from a console.  Any suggestions?
[03:45] <younghacker> the database is already created
[03:45] <bullgard4> Pici: I am no kernel developer. But I will dare listen to that channel before I post there anything.
[03:45] <gyaresu> shirish: 'apt-cache search hsfmodem' 'apt-get remove hfs-blah-whatever'
[03:45] <Dante123> well actually i tried it once......and it locked up on me.....so if the gain in ram is offset by loss of speed in this case I will stay with 512...thanks for advice
[03:46] <Pici> bullgard4: I just think the question you are asking is over the heads of most of the people here.  Including me :)
[03:46] <Dante123> thanks genii and gyaresu
[03:46] <bullgard4> Pici: I see.
[03:46] <Dante123> and spikeb
[03:46] <gyaresu> Falstius: What's the client OS?
[03:47] <gyaresu> Dante123: np
[03:47] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, Is there a package called dpkg-source
[03:47] <genii> shirish: Since you manually installed it with dpkg, if you find apt-get command cannot remove it, use dpkg again to remove it eg: sudo dpkg -r <pkgname here>
[03:47] <Sonic1> anyone know how to get a ATI TV Wonder VE to have sound?
[03:47] <Falstius> gyaresu: you mean the server os?  It is linux.  Both sides are linux (the server is a RHEL3 clone, client is Ubuntu Feisty)
[03:47] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: it's part of dpkg
[03:47] <Lounge> i'm wondering about about the icons on the ubuntu desktop.. @ defualt they get aligned to the left side. is there a way to get them to auto align to the right side like os x?
[03:47] <togr> bullgard4, repeat your q please
[03:48] <Falstius> bullgard4: if you want the list of groups, you could just cat /etc/groups
[03:48] <Malachi> I desperately, desperately need some help.
[03:48] <gyaresu> sangeetha: 'apropos dpkg-source'
[03:48] <Malachi> My job is on the line.
[03:48] <shirish> thanx all, actually synaptic did the trick, I wanted to purge (including configuration files) :)
[03:48] <Malachi> http://www.venturecake.com/a-simple-guide-to-using-your-existing-windows-install-apps-in-ubuntu/
[03:48] <younghacker> i desperately need help as well
[03:48] <bullgard4> togr:  /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[03:49] <younghacker> if anyone is skilled with postgreSQL please help me
[03:49] <magnetron> ask your question and we might possibly be able to help you
[03:49] <Malachi> Read that. I did it all, but I accidentally started in Linux. And it ate my files.
[03:49] <Malachi> Now I can't start Ubuntu.

[03:49] <timewriter> hi
[03:49] <liuchenhao> hello ,everyone
[03:49] <gyaresu> Falstius: I forward X sessions. Now that's the bomb. Edit gdm.conf allow tcp connects (port 6000), client runs 'xhost +'
[03:49] <timewriter> what is ubuntu studio ?
[03:50] <Falstius> Malachi: if your job is one the line, you may want to call in your local Linux professional to fix your problem.
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, ubuntu for artists
[03:50] <beatnik> hello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:50] <sangeetha> gyaresu, I am getting command not found if i give dpkg-source
[03:50] <togr> bullgard4, I presume you have kernel sources installed then
[03:50] <Malachi> Falstius: I am my only local Linux professional.
[03:50] <Malachi> =\
[03:50] <timewriter> it is official ?
[03:50] <Falstius> gyaresu: forwarding x-sessions is less stable and requires more bandwidth than VNC.
[03:50] <gyaresu> Falstius: I run movies from my main machine that's plugged into stereo with X going to laptop into data projector.
[03:50] <bullgard4> Falstius: The proper command would be cat /etc/group
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, no.
[03:50] <gyaresu> Falstius: Remote is it?
[03:50] <Thunderhit> Want to know, how do I uninstall gaim in ubuntu? when I want to remove it, it says it also has to remove nautilus-sendto and ubuntu-desktop, and I think think removing ubuntu-desktop is good, isnt it?
[03:50] <spikeb> timewriter, or perhaps the best answer would be "not yet"
[03:51] <gyaresu> sangeetha: 'apropos'
[03:51] <Falstius> gyaresu: yes, telecommuting sort of thing.
[03:51] <genii> gyaresu: If you are interested in remote desktop apps perhaps check out FreeNX , it is very good
[03:51] <timewriter> thanks
[03:51] <timewriter> im not gonna install it
[03:51] <gyaresu> genii: cheers. will do.
[03:51] <beatnik> ello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:51] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, should i install anyother package for dpkg-source to work
[03:51] <gyaresu> genii: It's on a lot of livecd's. (Never used it)
[03:51] <gyaresu> Falstius: Sorry then. Not very helpful ;)
[03:51] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: no.  if it's not working, you're calling it wrong
[03:52] <anachronik> https://skypecasts.skype.com/skypecasts/skypecast/detailed.html?id_talk=3131137&message=new_talk_created#join --> Gdrive and goobuntu skypecast
[03:52] <rolfen> Malachi: what do you mean you accidentally started in linux?
[03:52] <genii> gyaresu: I find the speed is much more tolerable than VNC or X forwarding
[03:52] <rafaelscj> How can I fix it? > http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Sub-processo gzip retornou um cdigo de erro (1)
[03:52] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, this is the command that i gave:dpkg-source -x iceweasel_2.0.0.3-2.dsc
[03:52] <akos> hello! one-liner: how do I change the mixer to be used?  I guess the OSS mixer is used, becuase if I mute the alsa mixer, sound is still being played (terrible quality), but if I mute the oss mixer, it stops playing
[03:52] <scorp123> Malachi: next time use VMware or VirtualBox .... :-/
[03:52] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: which is correct, yes.
[03:52] <MTecknology> Can somebody tell me how often this cron job SHOULD run? I wanted every saturday at midnight     * 0 * * 6 /usr/local/sbin/backup-exec weekly > ~/backup.log
[03:52] <gyaresu> genii: You're talking to a guy on irssi/screen/unicode-rxvt and this is my desktop...
[03:53] <togr> bullgard4, go to PM?
[03:53] <sangeetha> gyaresu, it is asking apropos what
[03:53] <magnetron> rolfen: started the host os with VMware accessing the physical disk
[03:53] <genii> gyaresu: :)
[03:53] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: as for if/where it's failing, i couldnt tell you without a pastebin of the output
[03:53] <bullgard4> _Lucretia_: Let me repeat: I am using Ubuntu 7.04. In Ubuntu 7.04 the group 'users' exists per default. But I am no member of that group.
[03:53] <gyaresu> sangeetha: I only linked it as a cool command to find out what may be installed. 'man apropos'
[03:53] <_Lucretia_> bullgard4: yeah. I got that
[03:53] <timewriter> anyone knows how to replace the ubuntu logo left upper corner of gnome ?
[03:54] <magnetron> Malachi: it wasn't a good guide you were following, the official ubuntu documentation is better and safer
[03:54] <timewriter> on Applications tab
[03:54] <bullgard4> togr: To whom should I direct a PM?
[03:54] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, bash: dpkg-source: command not found ,this is the output
[03:54] <timewriter> i want the gnome logo there
[03:54] <scorp123> Malachi: I second that. That was a very bad idea.
[03:54] <fredddy> thx wbadger for the answer (ut2004 alt-tab) does this work with other games to ?
[03:54] <Malachi> magnetron: It was. It worked perfectly, I just ran out of the room and forgot to switch to Windows.
[03:54] <Malachi> So it booted Linux on Linux and ate my files.
[03:54] <Malachi> At least, some of them.
[03:54] <togr> bullgard4, to me?  This channels is somewhat noisy at the moment
[03:54] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: then i have no idea.  you wouldnt have removed dpkg, surely...
[03:55] <Malachi> I'm on Windows trying to see what can be recovered.
[03:55] <magnetron> Malachi: if it was such a perfect guide, this wouldn't have happened
[03:55] <rolfen> Malachi: just curious... why would linux do such a thing?
[03:55] <beatnik> Hello, can you help me about sharing internet; i have a laptop which is conneting with wireless and i have a desktop.
[03:56] <sangeetha> Hobbsee, i have installed dpkg
[03:56] <Malachi> rolfen: I have no idea.
[03:56] <rolfen> Malachi: anyway... dont want to bother you with my questions
[03:56] <togr> does python not have an interface to 'getgrent'?
[03:56] <Hobbsee> sangeetha: then i have no idea
[03:56] <Malachi> magnetron: You're right.
[03:56] <magnetron> rolfen, Malachi: actually it was vmware that was accessing the drive
[03:56] <JayRoe> can someone tell me how I permanently remove the gnome panels on my secondary screen?
[03:57] <gyaresu> beatnik: You want to share the wireless from your laptop to your desktop? But you don't have a router?
[03:57] <Seoke> I'm installing the new pythong 2.5.1 and the makefile was created but when I type make it says command not found what am I doing wrong?
[03:57] <Seoke> python*
[03:57] <genii> beatnik: There is much help and info on that subject here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[03:57] <beatnik> ping
[03:57] <magnetron> Seoke: no, you should not install it from source
[03:58] <magnetron> Seoke: use add/remove programs to install software in ubuntu
[03:58] <rolfen> Malachi: do you want to recover your data files or rebuild the linux installation?
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, But the source is newer then the add/remove programs one =P
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, The newest one in there is 2.4
[03:58] <magnetron> Seoke: and will give you a headache (and us too)
[03:58] <Malachi> rolfen: Rebuild, if possible.
[03:58] <gyaresu> genii: Nice! I couldn't quite face explaining that :)
[03:58] <Seoke> magnetron, Alright lol I'll stick with what I have installed now =P
[03:58] <Malachi> rolfen: But I'm moving all I can to a different PC.
[03:59] <Malachi> It seems my /home folder is intact.
[03:59] <Seoke> magnetron, Do you use irssi for your irc?
[03:59] <rgl> how can I change the IP address where inetd listens at?
[03:59] <bullgard4> togr: If you don't mind give me your PM address, and I will send you my question to that address.
[03:59] <scorp123> rgl: for which service??
[04:00] <rgl> scorp123, for example, ftp.
[04:00] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: Hi again
[04:00] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: I think I have found something
[04:00] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Hey. Got desktop?
[04:01] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Drumroll...
[04:01] <scorp123> rgl: why would you do that? But to answer: that depends on your ftp server's config file ....
[04:01] <genii> Sorta AFK a bit (work, etc)
[04:01] <togr> bullgard4, maybe I'm just too stupid with irc to know what you mean.  Isn't /msg allowed?
[04:01] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Really long drumroll...
[04:01] <rgl> scorp123, it does not depend on the ftp config file.  since its inetd that creates the listen socket.
[04:01] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: gdm[16146] : gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: [[deadly] ]  X [[error] ]  - :0 [[restarting] ]                                               [[] ]  are translated words
[04:02] <erisco> how do I put multiple commands into an application launcher?
[04:02] <bullgard4> togr: Yes, /msg is allowed here.
[04:02] <rolfen> Malachi: i dont know... i would have reinstalled. alternatively, if you haven't worked on that partition since that happened, you can try to use data recovery software to recover your linux filesystem... but i wouldnt bet on the system working after that... some files might get corrupted
[04:02] <scorp123> rgl: if you know it better than why do you ask???? :-)
[04:02] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Install kdm and see if that works. I've got kdm because of silly gdm faults from ages ago. (And I use fluxbox).
[04:02] <rolfen> Malachi: for data recovery i use rstudio
[04:02] <Cyber_Stalker> hey guys
[04:02] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: No difference (not really).
[04:03] <Genomsaren> ok
[04:03] <rgl> scorp123, becuase I don't known how to make inetd listen at a specific IP address....
[04:03] <Cyber_Stalker> i remember i could get the latest ubuntu cd's sent to my house
[04:03] <Cyber_Stalker> can i still do that?
[04:03] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:03] <Pici> Cyber_Stalker: Yes.
[04:03] <Pici> !shipit | Cyber_Stalker
[04:03] <ubotu> Cyber_Stalker: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[04:03] <magnetron> Seoke: in feisty, i use 2.5 installed with add/remove
[04:03] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: do you mean KDE I have gnome and KDE in my system...
[04:03] <magnetron> erisco: you write a shell script
[04:03] <Malachi> Okay.
[04:03] <Cyber_Stalker> thanks loads :D

[04:04] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:04] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Just install kdm
[04:04] <erisco> magnetron, that is something I unfortunately do not know how to do... but perhaps I can write something in python
[04:04] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:04] <Genomsaren> ok
[04:04] <erisco> magnetron, thanks
[04:04] <Pici> !ask | younghacker

[04:04] <Bingoo> so,is there anyway to disable ACPI after install Ubuntu Feisty?
[04:04] <EHLOHIM> do you know the command to see the CPU specification?
[04:04] <younghacker> can anyone help me with postgreSQL
[04:04] <Pici> younghacker: Ask the question.
[04:04] <jafnoob> lol
[04:04] <scorp123> EHLOHIM: cat /proc/cpuinfo

[04:05] <EHLOHIM> scorp123: and about the Hard drive specification plz
[04:05] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: mmm. Dbus system errors eh? That's new. Try kdm first me thinks. Easy fixes are good.
[04:05] <MrKeuner> hi all, I am mounitng a flash/usb stick/drive, whatever its general name is, without any problem. Check the contents and then right click and select eject however, Gnome tell me that it cannot eject the drive, however it looks like it does. I could not locate the related bug, if one exists. Any comments?
[04:05] <daan> eum I just removed all the groups from my user, so I can't sudo anymore... is there a way to fix this?
[04:05] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: ok thanks
[04:05] <Bingoo> because it seems that it doesn't work/start up if ACPI is on
[04:05] <gyaresu> younghacker: Have you tried the postgres chat room?
[04:05] <bullgard4> Bingoo: What comes to my mind is, you could deinstall all ACPI related kernel modules. But I  do not think that this advisable.
[04:06] <gyaresu> daan: You can start in 'recovery mode'. Option at the boot menu.
[04:06] <Becha_> !ask Tcl-dev
[04:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask tcl-dev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:06] <daan> gyaresu: Am I automatically root then?
[04:06] <Bingoo> but it doesn't start either
[04:06] <napster> hi. when i watch mpeg files and stuff they are very small on the screen and when i make it full screen it stays very small. wat can i do?
[04:06] <Bingoo> i mean on recovery mode

[04:07] <gyaresu> daan: gpasswd
[04:07] <napster> any1?

[04:08] <daan> gyaresu: Ah I used that before and someone said that was wrong :( so now I used usermod.... :P
[04:08] <aa^way> hello, how can i detect firewire hardware? I just installed FireWire hardware but no notice came up. How i could see is it plugged or not?
[04:08] <AdvoWork> hi, ive just added a location to the network(added a windows server) i can double click this and view the folders) but how do i view in the terminal? whats the dir?
[04:08] <gyaresu> daan I'm old and probably wrong. I strip out most of the ubuntu stuff and drive it like debian. Definitly suck at the point and click things :)
[04:09] <IdleOne> Zombie, try #ubuntu-dev or ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:09] <IdleOne> #ubuntu-motu also
[04:09] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I have a default ish ubuntu install and my lappy is sluggish as hell. Is there a way to strip her down to bare bones without reinstalling???

[04:10] <imran> can anybody tell me how to edit menu.lst???
[04:10] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I would like to but i would like the default ubuntu desktop settings in place without having to manually configure everything. Should i just install a command line system and then work from there?
[04:10] <daan> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:10] <scorp123> LiNuX_Fr3aK: BS
[04:10] <daan> imran: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst

[04:10] <scorp123> LiNuX_Fr3aK: just remove what you don't need
[04:11] <scorp123> LiNuX_Fr3aK: Evolution and its dependencies, OpenOffice maybe, and so on.
[04:11] <Pici> napster: Changing the method that your player displays movies usually fixes this problem.  You may need to play with the setting to find the best option.
[04:11] <imran> daan, thanks
[04:11] <gyaresu> daan: My user is a member of both. But the /etc/sudoers file is where it's at (edited by 'visudo')
[04:11] <Pici> napster: You need to find a menu item that contains listings such as X11, xv, etc
[04:11] <napster> Pici: wat u mean?
[04:11] <napster> ok
[04:11] <napster> hang on
[04:12] <Pici> napster: What application are you using?

[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Cyber_Stalker: works fine
[04:13] <scorp123> Borbus: no. Creative X-Fi is not supported as of yet.
[04:13] <summer_s4> will there access be granted?
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Cyber_Stalker: I have dual booted for years now..
[04:13] <Cyber_Stalker> hmm
[04:13] <napster> Pici: I'm using totem movie player. wat do u recomend? I couldnt find such settings
[04:13] <Cyber_Stalker> ok
[04:14] <Cyber_Stalker> could i talk to u in private
[04:14] <gilo2> Does anyone know of a GUI for setting up IPSec?
[04:14] <gyaresu> Cyber_Stalker: Dual boot is fine. I always use seperate drives cause windows is rubbish and needs 'space'.
[04:14] <Cyber_Stalker> i have just a few questions
[04:14] <ubunt1> summer_s4: it depends on if it has the right to do it
[04:14] <genii> ubuntu-desktop is the package name of the main set of apps etc to be installed by default in the Gnome version of Ubuntu
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Cyber_Stalker: Sure pm me
[04:14] <gazza_c> how do you install fonts on to a lfs system using gnome
[04:14] <Pici> napster: I personally use vlc
[04:14] <nomi1> can somebody remind me of the partitions I need to set up manually for ubuntu ... is it /etc /home and swap?
[04:14] <Borbus> That's the last time I buy a creative product
[04:14] <Cyber_Stalker> i dont have a spare drive tho :(
[04:14] <aleksanteri> gazza_c: already asked :P
[04:14] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> My idea or ubuntu got seriously slower this release?
[04:14] <napster> wats vlc and can i just get it from synaptic
[04:14] <Pici> nomi1: You only need to setup / and swap
[04:14] <gyaresu> nomi1: Why manually?
[04:14] <gazza_c> any reply
[04:14] <[M] at> hey wheres the help channel ??
[04:14] <runa> hi, can sb help me configure the touchpad. I have tried many howto on internet but couldnt this is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m841be2
[04:14] <scorp123> Borbus: Their Audigy stuff works ... But X-Fi: not yet.
[04:14] <Falstius> nomi1: but setting up /home is also a good idea.
[04:14] <saxin> LiNuX_Fr3aK: I dont think so.
[04:14] <nomi1> root and swap?   pici?   don't I need a usr partition?
[04:14] <aleksanteri> [M] at: here :p
[04:14] <imran> do i need to update ubuntu to run compers fusion?
[04:15] <Borbus> I wonder why
[04:15] <Borbus> Because of fucking vista I suppose
[04:15] <nomi1> and it will put /home/username under itfalstius?
[04:15] <younghacker> nah no english postgres channels yet
[04:15] <gazza_c> this would work better if you allowed one person at a time to speak so you could answer the questions
[04:15] <LuitvD> hi there, it's me again
[04:15] <aleksanteri> gazza_c: this is a too busy channel for it
[04:15] <AdvoWork> wheres the "places" directory on ubuntu, anyone know?
[04:15] <Falstius> nomi1: a good basic setup has /, /home and swap.  It will put all your user data in /home, making reinstalling much easier and safer.
[04:15] <shirish> ubotu dialup
[04:15] <Pici> nomi1: it'll put /home on the same partition as /
[04:15] <gyaresu> Falstius: cept that you end up with a big empty unusable / partition and you should be rsync'ing your home dir somewhere safe anyway :)
[04:15] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:15] <Borbus> Maybe I'll ask for my money back

[04:17] <Falstius> gyaresu: if your HD is that full, you have other problems.  And if you fill up your / partition, your computer can become unbootable.

[04:18] <Borbus> It seems my ATI card doesn't work in linux either
[04:18] <aleksanteri> genii: eh? the folder is on my desktop :P
[04:18] <scorp123> summer_s4: www.google.com
[04:18] <gyaresu> Falstius: I agree for a server... But for deskie... (Home gets full and it won't load either). Here I stop arguing.
[04:18] <[M] at> gyaresu: yep, I'm still in the computer - it hasnt crashed
[04:18] <Borbus> God damn ati and creative
[04:18] <MaDiNfO_> summer_s4: apt.get install beryl
[04:18] <LuitvD> does anyone have experiance with the Bluetooth function of MSI S260, S270 or S271 series notebooks?
[04:18] <gyaresu> Falstius: You are right. I am differently right.
[04:18] <dnz_x> hii all
[04:18] <genii> aleksanteri: Something like cp /home/myname ../somename   will not work usually
[04:18] <tinin> Borbus try envy http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[04:18] <genii> permissions etc
[04:18] <[M] at> gyaresu: /dev/sda was my root harddrive and /dev/sda3 is my root directory; /dev/sda1 is swap and was deleted as well :S
[04:18] <b34> come si usa!
[04:18] <BashBang> [M] at : the /dev files are created at boot time, just reboot. /dev is depricated now anyway everything is run from /sys
[04:18] <summer_s4> yeah but i forgot everything about linux when i rebooted it
[04:19] <imran> scorp123, but i heard there was a new one called compers fusion or something
[04:19] <dnz_x> i install compiz fusion
[04:19] <aleksanteri> genii: fonts:// doesn't seem to have an absolute path
[04:19] <scorp123> imran: compers???? :-)
[04:19] <dgs> where i make download cedega?
[04:19] <[M] at> BashBang: if that's true i LUV U :D
[04:19] <dnz_x> but there are 2 desktops
[04:19] <Falstius> gyaresu: for a server, you should definetely partition out /var also.  And if you're paranoid /usr and then mount / ro.
[04:19] <dnz_x> how can i make it 4
[04:19] <BashBang> lol
[04:19] <summer_s4> what is the code for download/install compiz fusion?
[04:19] <imran> scorp123, compers fusion
[04:19] <[M] at> :D
[04:19] <dnz_x> i couldnt find
[04:19] <HEP85> for me compiz fusion runs slower
[04:19] <Pici> imran: #ubuntu-effects for compiz/beryl questions :)
[04:19] <gyaresu> [M] at: Well I've got a sneaking suspicion you could be stuffed. OR you've deleted and unmounted directory that you can just create again and re-mount.
[04:19] <Borbus> tinin: thanks
[04:19] <genii> aleksanteri: Hang on I'll find what dir they should go in
[04:19] <b34> chi pu aitarmi per questachat?
[04:19] <aleksanteri> genii: the only way to install them is to drop them into fonts:// with Nautilus it seems
[04:19] <aleksanteri> ok
[04:19] <scorp123> imran: if you can't even spell it right .... :-)
[04:20] <Borbus> I used the ubuntu thing to download ati drivers before.. will envy download proper ones?
[04:20] <dgs> where i make download cedega?
[04:20] <Pici> b34: language?
[04:20] <[M] at> gyaresu: i typed the commend 'sudo rm /dev/sda' instead of 'sudo rm /media/sda' :P
[04:20] <LuitvD> does anyone have experiance with the Bluetooth function of MSI S260, S270 or S271 series notebooks?
[04:20] <gyaresu> Falstius: Of this I am very aware. Which is why deskies get / & swap & a cron job to redundasize

[04:20] <imran> scorp123, how do i spell it?

[04:20] <BashBang> [M] at : you can check /sys/block/sda and make sure everything is still good
[04:21] <b34> grazie
[04:21] <Falstius> gyaresu: that's a good idea if you've got the hardware (spare machine) to do it.
[04:21] <aleksanteri> genii: ok
[04:21] <[M] at> BashBang: kk ill check it now ta
[04:21] <gyaresu> [M] at: Fine, if you only did that then reboot and they'll be remade (/dev/sda) is the device node. not the directory.
[04:21] <LuitvD> does anyone have experiance with the Bluetooth function of MSI S260, S270 or S271 series notebooks??? or with any type of notebook bluetooth function?
[04:21] <dgs> SlimeyPete: thanks
[04:21] <[M] at> gyaresu: thanks
[04:21] <tinin> Borbus Ati cards usually have two drivers avaliable, one opensource and the other one the official, you' hav to check wich one is better for your card
[04:21] <scorp123> LuitvD: why?
[04:21] <jrattner1> Question: Does Ubuntu server edition include X?
[04:21] <gyaresu> Falstius: Incremental backup across an ssh tunnel at 3 in the morning.
[04:21] <[M] at> BashBang: thanks - im making a backup of critical files anyway and ill reformat if anything stuffs up
[04:21] <LuitvD> scorp123: mine won't work
[04:21] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: now I have a bigger problem
[04:21] <BashBang> np
[04:22] <aleksanteri> genii: the folder doesn't exist
[04:22] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: Cool!
[04:22] <varka> jrattner1: surely not
[04:22] <gerro> what command to bring up the update manager?
[04:22] <aleksanteri> gerro: adept
[04:22] <spikeb> update-manager
[04:22] <Genomsaren> gyaresu: kdm is not running and I cant get the login window :S
[04:22] <jrattner1> varka, definately not?
[04:22] <genii> aleksanteri: Ah, the "defoma" dir then?
[04:22] <LuitvD> scorp123: it's a mini-pci-like device (the MP54GBT2 is Wifi and BT in 1) connected to an USB bus IIRC
[04:22] <[M] at> BashBang: if /sys/block/sda/ is still intact, all should be good if I reboot ??
[04:22] <Skrypt> Anyone think they can help me trouble shoot my half-working sound?
[04:22] <LuitvD> scorp123: but it's in neither lspci nor lsusb
[04:22] <varka> jrattner1: yeah, but you can install it later on anyway
[04:22] <scorp123> LuitvD: yeah, it can happen that the Bluetooth function won't work under Linux. I got tons of problems too especially on Sony hardware.
[04:22] <aleksanteri> genii: yep
[04:22] <jrattner1> varka, great
[04:22] <gyaresu> Genomsaren: command line: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm' then answer the questions...
[04:23] <Genomsaren> ok
[04:23] <LuitvD> scorp123: with what kind of hardware is that?
[04:23] <runa> hi, can sb help me configure the touchpad. I have tried many howto on internet but couldnt this is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m841be2
[04:23] <Falstius> gyaresu: the average home user doesn't leave their computer on at night though (I don't, electricity is too expensive).  That would be wasting a few beers a month!
[04:23] <BashBang> [M] at : yup, you should see sda1 2 3 4 and so on, is all good
[04:23] <genii> aleksanteri: These are TTF fonts?
[04:23] <aleksanteri> genii: yep
[04:23] <gyaresu> [M] at: Make yourself happy and reboot to a live cd. At least then you won't be writing over the hdd and can use recovery tools.
[04:23] <[M] at> BashBang: k thanks! i knew i would find faster support in IRC channel rather than on the forums :P
[04:23] <genii> aleksanteri: OK, 1 moment
[04:23] <scorp123> LuitvD: Sony VAIO laptops ... for some model there is a driver (sonypi), but for others it won't work: To make bluetooth work you first need to get that stupid interrupt controller ....
[04:24] <gyaresu> Falstius: You reboot o_0 zomg!
[04:24] <BashBang> [M] at : glad to help
[04:24] <[M] at> gyaresu: kk can IRC be run from LIVE CD cause ill rejoin if something f**ks up
[04:24] <scorp123> LuitvD: I can imagine that other laptops may need Firmware or some other proprietary magic to get Bluetooth working properly.
[04:24] <gyaresu> Falstius: All the annoying stuff happens while I sleep.
[04:24] <scorp123> LuitvD: on my Fujitsu-Siemens and HP Laptops it just works out of the box ....
[04:25] <gyaresu> [M] at: Def irc from livecd.
[04:25] <LuitvD> scorp123: some people made the device appear by modprobing hci_usb :S
[04:25] <[M] at> cheers
[04:25] <tinin> could someone help me to configure the fstab?
[04:25] <[M] at> thanks all
[04:25] <selinuxium> hi all, is there away of starting a vnc session if the user is not logged in via GDM?
[04:25] <aleksanteri> !ask | tinin
[04:25] <ubotu> tinin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:25] <jatt> he asked a question
[04:25] <aleksanteri> oops
[04:25] <aleksanteri> lol
[04:25] <LuitvD> scorp123: it is  a USB device.. but somehow activated by a hardware command, through software, back to hardware
[04:25] <tinin> yeah
[04:26] <gyaresu> tinin: What are you trying to do. (was aleksanteri point)
[04:26] <genii> aleksanteri: There is a main dir for them, /usr/share/fonts/truetype/  but then you would need for instance to make a subdir in there like /usr/share/fonts/truetype/myfonts   then copy the stuff to there then. With sudo
[04:26] <aleksanteri> genii: ok
[04:26] <genii> need to be AFK a few minutes (work)
[04:26] <scorp123> LuitvD: you see, that really depends on how your BT hardware is connected and integrated into your system.
[04:26] <LuitvD> scorp123: need windows XP to activate it I guess... since the CD doesn't have any Vista drivers :P
[04:26] <LuitvD> scorp123: it's a MP54GBT2 device
[04:26] <tinin> I can not see my windows partition and my fat 32 partition
[04:26] <JayRoe> Can someone help me with my gnome panels. I've deleted them from the second monitor, but everytime I reboot they reappear.
[04:26] <LuitvD> scorp123: which is WiFi and BT in one miniPCI card
[04:28] <optimusrex> Hi all. Can you help me by showing me the best documentation for setting up Konversation since i made some changes and messed up.
[04:28] <aleksanteri> genii: thanks
[04:29] <gyaresu> optimusrex: Don't use it but you can probably just delete the 'dotfile' config folder ~/.konversation (as a guess)
[04:29] <selinuxium> genii: aleksanteri : be careful with how many fonts you install, I installed thousands once and Ubuntu refused to boot!
[04:29] <tinin> I've got 4 primary partitions, 1 linux, 2 win, 3 swap, 4 fat32. But I can not see win or fat32 partitions. Could sonmeone assist me? maybe trough vnc?
[04:30] <T-Connect> Hi.
[04:30] <optimusrex> ok gyaresu. Thanks for that I will try and get at it. Is it under usr?
[04:30] <Falstius> tinin: you really don't want to give people here access to your computer through VNC ...
[04:30] <tinin> ok
[04:30] <gyaresu> tinin: You can use a shared 'screen' session so that you can see what the person that helps you is doing.
[04:30] <gyaresu> tinin: You'd really want to trust them though.
[04:31] <tinin> It's just that I've been fighting with fstab for a week, and I don't know what to do to it
[04:31] <naknak987> I'm using wine to run mirc and I'm having problems connecting to irc.starfleet.net Never had these problems with windows.
[04:31] <Falstius> gyaresu: you're paranoid enough for nightly rsync but not enough to shudder at the idea of giving a stranger a terminal on your machine??
[04:31] <Skrypt> !sound
[04:31] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[04:31] <T-Connect> Try XChat. It all good.
[04:31] <gyaresu> Falstius: I was going to suggest that you do it.
[04:32] <BashBang> tinin : do you have the proper kernel modules loaded to read fat32; ntfs partitions?
[04:32] <T-Connect> I never try mIRC on Linux before.
[04:32] <Falstius> I'd just wipe his win32 partition and say he's better off that way.
[04:32] <naknak987> I have to use mirc I cant say why, but i have to.
[04:32] <tinin> BashBang yes
[04:32] <chris__> I have a problem with my microsoft lifecam VX6000
[04:32] <jevangelo> what commands can show you what packages are installed
[04:32] <gyaresu> tinin: Do you have port forwarded through your modem/router. If you install openssh-server and screen then I reckon you should ask someone other than Falstius to help.
[04:33] <tinin> installing
[04:33] <Falstius> gyaresu: ssh -L 5900:localhost:5902   only need to open the port for ssh and it encrypts vnc's login.

[04:35] <lusia> You fuckin idiots
[04:35] <Falstius> gyaresu: plus, it is what he said initially.  I didn't really read that you said openssh-server and not vncserver.  I'm not paying much attention (supposed to be reading patents)

[04:39] <Falstius> tinin: that command is safe, but you should always look up commands people tell you to do (especially if they involve sudo).
[04:39] <jevangelo> anyone know what commands i can enter to show what packages have been installed on a server system

[04:39] <TuxOtaku> can anyone help me with this problem???
[04:39] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: which one? I dont see it.
[04:39] <TuxOtaku> I'm having trouble getting amarok to copy podcasts onto my iPod, the files copy over fine....but they aren't being recognized as podcasts.
[04:39] <tinin> http://pastebin.com/m780b3b53 my  sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[04:39] <T-Connect> tinin using ubuntu beta?
[04:39] <tinin> no
[04:39] <line72> jevangelo: dpkg -l
[04:39] <tinin> why?
[04:40] <gyaresu> Falstius: anandanbu ntfscheck
[04:40] <Falstius> tinin: that UUID for /dev/sda5 looks a little short doesn't it?
[04:40] <T-Connect> I see that purple bird head
[04:40] <KyuDragonWolf> What would be the best (safest?) way to access an NTFS drive using Ubuntu?
[04:40] <gyaresu> anandanbu: No, wait. ntfsfix
[04:40] <daan> gyaresu: ok I've got another problem, now I got sudo back but I don't have to type my password anymore...
[04:40] <TuxOtaku> rolfen, I'm having trouble getting amarok to copy podcasts onto my iPod, the files copy over fine....but they aren't being recognized as podcasts.
[04:40] <tinin> Falstius tht's my problem, how could i know that uuuid thing?
[04:41] <gyaresu> anandanbu: but you can just crack open a terminal and 'ntfs-3g -f'
[04:41] <gyaresu> daan: Sorry dude plane to catch in 5hours.
[04:41] <gnomefreak> KyuDragonWolf: there isnt a "safe" way you will be taking a risk any way you go but i here ntfs-3g is the best way
[04:41] <gerro> tinin: think its somewhere in udev..
[04:41] <daan> gyaresu: ok
[04:41] <tinin> I usede a live cd to get some fstab things
[04:41] <blubloblu> Hi everyone, I've messed up my wireless configuration and I need a step-by-step guide to restore settings to what they are on a fresh install. Any help would be appreciated
[04:41] <anandanbu> gyaresu: can i im you
[04:41] <KyuDragonWolf> gnomefreak, which will allow read/write access to the drive for programs?
[04:41] <gyaresu> daan: daan (If you reinstall just keep your /home directory backed up)
[04:42] <gnomefreak> KyuDragonWolf: it allows you read/write
[04:42] <daan> gyaresu: I'm not going to reinstall because of this :P
[04:42] <KyuDragonWolf> gnomefreak, thanks.
[04:42] <daan> gyaresu: I'm going to fix it
[04:42] <gnomefreak> !ntfs-3g | KyuDragonWolf
[04:42] <ubotu> KyuDragonWolf: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:42] <gyaresu> daan: Good luck I'm going to sleep.
[04:42] <Falstius> tinin: for an ext3 filesystem, you can use tune2fs -l /dev/sda5  ... it might even work for vfat (and it will only give an error if it doesn't work)
[04:42] <celt1c> hi everyone i am linux noob and have a alt version of ubuntu.  i wanna install it on my laptop i have but i was told i need help doing that because it is complicated.  can anyone help me or walk me through it?
[04:42] <BashBang> tinin :check out this site; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[04:43] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: will they show up as audio podcasts instead? what will happen to them?
[04:43] <tinin> Falsius I'll try
[04:43] <BashBang> tinin : your fstab looks fine
[04:43] <TuxOtaku> rolfen, they just show up as plain old audio tracks
[04:43] <tinin> BashBang I know that ntfs-3g thing
[04:43] <blubloblu> celt1c, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/I386
[04:43] <celt1c> thanks ill take a look
[04:44] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: what version of amarok do you have?
[04:44] <TuxOtaku> one sec.
[04:44] <TuxOtaku> rolfen, 1.4.6
[04:44] <tinin> Falstius tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block
[04:44] <TuxOtaku> this was working only a few days ago
[04:45] <TuxOtaku> now it won't read my song collection either.
[04:45] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: ah ok
[04:45] <celt1c> blubloblu, i acutally have the 6.06.1 i3 version because the newer one didnt work, it always gave me an error like /bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off, so i was told to go with the 6.06 version
[04:45] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: maybe it depends on the site
[04:45] <Falstius> tinin: I don't know the equivalent command for vfat
[04:46] <blubloblu> celt1c, just pop the cd in, the installation should guide you pretty well
[04:46] <rolfen> TuxOtaku: amarok wont read your song collection?
[04:46] <rolfen> weird
[04:46] <tinin> Is there any magical command to configure the partitions automatically XD I don't wan't to reinstalll  it all again
[04:46] <celt1c> even tho its the alt version?  will it ask me a bout paritions and stuff, i would not know what to do if it did.
[04:47] <fevel> hey...how come when I try to install vmware player in synaptic it tries to remove my vmware server?
[04:47] <blubloblu> celt1c, ok. do you want to dual boot with another OS?
[04:47] <TuxOtaku> tinin, rm -rf / ;P (don't do that, I'm just being a dork)
[04:47] <celt1c> YES, i need to keep vista
[04:47] <tinin> rm always sounds awful
[04:47] <summer_s4> can sumone tell me da blibber blabber channel
[04:48] <blubloblu> celt1c, do you have a 64bit machine?
[04:48] <Falstius> tinin: you can just mount the filesystem using /dev/sda5 instead of UUID=xxxx
[04:48] <T-Connect> Vista is ok. But Ubuntu is better.
[04:48] <celt1c> dont think so, it is an intel core duo
[04:48] <binho> Algum Brasileiro?
[04:48] <Falstius> Vista feels slow and clunky on my core2duo with 2gb of ram.
[04:48] <celt1c> well i wanna dual boot, vista and ubuntu
[04:49] <tinin> ok i'll try, when i started using linux i used fstab, but i never used that uuid thing
[04:49] <rolfen> !pg
[04:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:49] <okaygo> ewww vista ;o
[04:49] <blubloblu> celt1c, ok, thats not 64bit.
[04:49] <celt1c> ok
[04:49] <T-Connect> Oh you buy a HP with Intel Core Duo. It came with Vista too.
[04:49] <BashBang> tinin : check the output of: cat /proc/filesystems  see if your partitions are there

[04:49] <celt1c> k i will read that, thanks
[04:49] <bjwebb> im trying to get gobuntu gutsy to work properly, where is the best place to ask for help
[04:50] <Geminia1> hello mates... how do i install GTK+-2.10 ??
[04:50] <summer_s4> compiz
[04:50] <summer_s4> #gobuntu
[04:50] <znoG> hey, does anyone know if an upgrade from ubuntu edgy to feisty fawn is fairly safe?
[04:50] <T-Connect> Be careful on SATA drives.
[04:50] <summer_s4> yes it is extreemly safe
[04:50] <blubloblu> Hi everyone, I've messed up my wireless configuration and I need a step-by-step guide to restore settings to what they are on a fresh install. Any help would be appreciated
[04:50] <T-Connect> Ubuntu doesn't like SATA very well.
[04:50] <tinin> BashBang it seems ok, I'll try with /dev/sda instead of uuid
[04:50] <Geminia1> is there like an apt get command to install gktk+-2.10?
[04:50] <Geminia1> gtk*
[04:51] <znoG> summer_s4: really?
[04:51] <summer_s4> blubloblu:  go into system-admin-network
[04:51] <summer_s4> znog: yes
[04:51] <blubloblu> summer_s4, ok
[04:51] <T-Connect> Least I have a boot error on Ubuntu just by using SATA.
[04:51] <BashBang> tinin : does cat /proc/filesystems show your ntfs partitions?
[04:51] <celt1c> alright i am staying on this laptop that im typing on while i have the laptop that i am instlaling ubuntu on, ill ask any questions that im not sure about ok
[04:51] <summer_s4> blubloblu: type your users pass
[04:51] <znoG> summer_s4: i figured as much, i would have thought adept wouldn't tell me an upgrade is available to feisty unless it was reaaaally sure
[04:51] <summer_s4> blubloblu: wait 4 it to load
[04:52] <blubloblu> summer_s4, yeah, did that. Wireless device doesn't appear
[04:52] <Geminia1> no one knows how to get gtk?
[04:52] <optimusrex> My adept tells me that I do not have admin rights to install stuff. I am the admin and logged in as admin when the comp started. How do I fix Adept manager, please?
[04:52] <celt1c> do i install in text mode right?
[04:52] <summer_s4> znog: i am truely sure
[04:52] <Falstius> I have a dual monitor setup and I want a VNC client that will properly full screen to one monitor, leaving the other alone (as most programs do when in full screen).  Real vnc's vncviewer takes up both monitors and positions the active area in the middle.  tsclient tries to only use one monitor, but it fails, loses the mouse and keyboard, and I have to kill it from a console.  Any suggestions?
[04:52] <tinin> BashBang yes
[04:52] <summer_s4> blubloblu: does it say wireless connection?
[04:52] <blubloblu> summer_s4, no, just dial-up and wired
[04:52] <T-Connect> I never could get Ubuntu to boot on my SATA, It also screw up my XP boot as well.
[04:53] <summer_s4> click the power button in the top right hand corner
[04:53] <summer_s4> click restart
[04:53] <T-Connect> I'm using Non-SATA for Ubuntu.
[04:53] <Thunderhit> plz help me, want to build truecrypt, it asks for the source directory of the linux kernel..... can you tell me where it is? :-)
[04:53] <BashBang> tinin : k, your problems are definitly not in fstab, maybe a permision problem then?
[04:53] <tinin> what do I do next when I change the fstab? sudo umount -a?
[04:53] <sword> wsup
[04:53] <T-Connect> wsup
[04:53] <geem> Hi!!!

[04:54] <tinin> BashBang any suggestion?
[04:54] <summer_s4> anyone need help?

[04:54] <sword> its like the new mandrake
[04:54] <Geminia1> cause ubuntu rox
[04:54] <blubloblu> summer_s4, did you ask me to restart?
[04:54] <Skrypt> How do I set wine as the default program for .exe files?
[04:54] <Falstius> tinin: sudo mount -a (not umount)
[04:54] <summer_s4> sword: because it looks dif
[04:54] <celt1c> im installing the alt of 6.06 and it says it cant find any network interfaces, is this a problem
[04:54] <tinin> Falstius ok
[04:54] <sword> summer_s4:  because it looks dif?
[04:55] <summer_s4> blubloblu: yes.  While it is restarting, make sure the wireless cord is plugged in right.
[04:55] <spikeb> er
[04:55] <summer_s4> blubloblu: don't open the computer
[04:55] <spikeb> wireless cord?
[04:55] <BashBang> tinin : are you trying to mount as normal user?
[04:55] <blubloblu> summer_s4, ok
[04:55] <tinin> wow, now I've got a problem with mtab
[04:55] <summer_s4> blubloblu: If it is USB make sure it is connected right
[04:55] <tinin> BashBang no, I still know a bit
[04:55] <sword> some of my friends call the distro HIVbuntu because it is spreading like a virus
[04:55] <KyuDragonWolf> gnomefreak, used the config tool as suggested, clicked to enable read and write of internal and external device, and it is still read only. Does it need to be unmounted and remounted?
[04:56] <Geminia1> cause it is good
[04:56] <summer_s4> anyone: Say your problomes i will try to help you
[04:56] <Geminia1> ubuntu is best distro perhaps
[04:56] <celt1c> guys i need help with the partitioner in the install
[04:56] <tinin> If i reboot, will mtab be configured automatically?
[04:56] <summer_s4> geminia1: yes
[04:56] <summer_s4> !mtab
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mtab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <gnomefreak> KyuDragonWolf: maybe, i have learned a long time ago to not write to ntfs but this tool is fairly new and i have never used it
[04:56] <celt1c> it gives me 4 options, which do i pick to keep my windows install and hav a dual boot of linux
[04:57] <Skrypt> How do I set wine as the default program for .exe files?
[04:57] <summer_s4> celt1c:  i would do a windows/linux duo boot.
[04:57] <celt1c> ok how do i do that
[04:57] <The_Machine> I'm using Kubuntu - my local USB drive isn't being automatically detected/mounted.  It was working so nicely when i first installed Feisty, now it's all crapped out.  I have an ext3 formatted drive i want it to recognize..  can anyone give me some advice on how to fix this issue (once and for all, so it automatically recognizes these drives in the future?)
[04:57] <KyuDragonWolf> gnomefreak, the drive is a slave, really, it doesn't matter what format it is in, other than I need to clear it out to transfer stuff off of it to reformat it. Any suggestions?
[04:57] <summer_s4> celt1c: go to partitionmagic.com
[04:58] <summer_s4> do you have linux or windows on right now?
[04:58] <celt1c> windows on right now

[05:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !offtopic
[05:06] <sword> i want to inform ubuntu users
[05:06] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:06] <sword> that there is more to linux than ubuntu
[05:06] <jasiu> hi

[05:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo: how far did you get with the tutorial?
[05:07] <sword> this isnt random chatter

[05:07] <sword> this is about the ubuntu project
[05:07] <jasiu> i`ve got question: how can i change clock theme
[05:07] <jasiu> ??
[05:07] <tinin> Falstius:  BashBang:  Problem solved, thanx, I will have to learn about that UUID thing, I've got the same problem with another pc
[05:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo: what tutorial did you use.
[05:07] <celt1c> how do i partition my drive so that i can dual boot with windows and ubuntu
[05:08] <Falstius> tinin: using UUIDs is a good idea, but it isn't very mature yet.
[05:08] <blubloblu> summer_s4, what code?
[05:08] <Darkshowdo> it was with the .wireless-up file then u had to use like gedit and then make the file
[05:08] <npnufn> I am using feisty.  my nautilus scripts are not showing in the nautilus context menu.
[05:08] <jasiu> hello

[05:08] <Darkshowdo> then i had to use the termniel
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> sword there are lots of ubuntu channels... do a irc search and pick the one that best suits your needs.
[05:09] <jasiu> how can i change the clock theme??
[05:09] <Darkshowdo> and go to like some rc2.d thing
[05:09] <tinin> Falstius but for afaik UUID is the most used now
[05:09] <Darkshowdo> then type some other command in
[05:09] <summer_s4> does anyone know of a partition resizer for ubuntu?
[05:09] <tinin> by default on all ubuntu flavours
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo: Ok...  stop there
[05:09] <jasiu> hey
[05:09] <fevel> summer_s4: gparted
[05:09] <T-Connect> Is there away to get rid of some ugly screen savers?
[05:09] <Geminia1> guys
[05:09] <celt1c> guys i am desperate for help!  i am literally in the middle of the ubuntu install on my laptop right next to me and idk what to do with the partitions, can someone tell me in detail how to partition correctly
[05:09] <Geminia1> i appear to be tunnelling through "dependancy hell"
[05:10] <Geminia1> please tell me if there is a way to install gtk with apt-get
[05:10] <Falstius> tinin: Ubuntu started using them with Edgy and Feisty, which is pretty recent.  But tools for dealing with UUIDs aren't as familar to the community as a whole.
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo: let me find the one I used this morning..
[05:10] <Geminia1> i'd really really love it if there were
[05:10] <Darkshowdo> k
[05:10] <BashBang> tinin : how did you make out?
[05:11] <tinin> BashBang I changed UUIDs to /dev/sdax and rebooted, because I also had tried luck with mtab before, so it was giving me errors
[05:12] <tinin> I tried uuids from live cds
[05:12] <francis_> Could someone PleaSe help me get my wireless lan card working at 11mb/ps !! i am currently connected at 30KB/ps .. The card works fine in M$
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[05:12] <Darkshowdo> k thx
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkshowdo: read through and ask any questions..
[05:13] <tomize> is there a simple reason why on feisty, apt-get install apache yields "Package apache is not available, but referred to by another package"?
[05:13] <T-Connect> Can VirtualBox run a DOS program?
[05:13] <BashBang> tinin : mount is your friend here, read the man page for mount, you should be able to pass the same options in fstab with mount. saves rebooting :)

[05:13] <Geminia1> is there a way to use the package manager to install gtk because the normal way is killing me with dependencies
[05:13] <Geminia1> like what repo might it be in?

[05:14] <tinin> I always use the easy way (and I needed to go to ba<throom)
[05:15] <Andyho> hi y'all
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_: what network card?
[05:15] <francis_> Jack_Sparrow: its the bcm4310 UART
[05:15] <regis_> hello i have  Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character zhen copying files from an ext3 hdd to my local ext3 partition
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_:   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[05:16] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_: That is the one I used this morning to set up two different wireless cards.. one pcmcia
[05:16] <francis_> humm mine is not a pcmcia
[05:16] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_: both were different versions of the broadcom chipset.. one was made by linksys
[05:16] <Andyho> what's the best way to run .exe's on ubuntu? I hear WINE can be a little slow.. I would prefer not to have to do a virtual with windows..
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_: The other was mini-pci
[05:17] <spikeb> Andyho, wine or virtualization.
[05:17] <SlimeyPete> wineis the only way, Andyho, apart from virtualization.
[05:17] <tinin> francis you should check if it is supported under linux before
[05:17] <rogue780> where does firefox keep its plugin files?
[05:17] <spikeb> Andyho, if it works with wine, use that method.
[05:17] <francis_> Jack_Sparrow: will try it out !! will tell ya how it goes
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> francis  the bcm43xx are supported
[05:17] <Falstius> Andyho: wine is as fast or faster than running them natively on windows.  When it works.
[05:17] <regis_> anyone can help me with my locales problem? how can i detect the locales of a file?
[05:17] <spikeb> rogue780, /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[05:18] <francis_> tinin: there is a bcm43xx module in the kernel
[05:18] <Andyho> k, guess I'll try wine and see how it goes :)
[05:18] <kbrosnan> rogue780: many places, go to about:config find plugin.expose_full_path double click to turn to true and then go to about:plugins
[05:18] <downhillgames> can anyone tell me about this being supported? : 01:04.0 RF controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]  Am 1771 MBW [Alchemy]  (rev 04)
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> francis_: That link should have you up and running quickly, remember to check your repos..
[05:19] <T-Connect> Oh no virualbox is stuck.
[05:19] <dedi> what should i do when i changed the mainboard and other hardware without reinstalling the system?
[05:19] <downhillgames> dedi, just make sure to plug in your hard drives to the same spots they came from (on the old board)
[05:20] <tinin> So it should work by default, maybe try first a program for wireless connections
[05:20] <tinin> like knemo in kde
[05:20] <downhillgames> dedi, other than that... maybe modify the xorg.conf Device section to reflect the new BusID
[05:20] <tinin> francis_:
[05:20] <downhillgames> dedi, that should do ya
[05:20] <tomize> ok lets try another way, http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/web/apache won't appear in synaptic, is it deprecated or something?
[05:20] <summer_s4> each day, i am going threw add/remove applacations
[05:20] <rogue780> kbrosnan,, spikeb, thanks
[05:21] <spikeb> apache is called httpd now isnt it?
[05:21] <matkix> lol
[05:21] <T-Connect> How I hit ok on virtualbox?
[05:21] <dedi> downhillgames: system is running but i cant install the grafic drivers (it says cant find nvidia card). already modified the xorg.conf to nv driver
[05:21] <tinin> francis If you say it has a slow connecton, it means it is working, maybe you'll only need to configure your internet connection or your router ports
[05:21] <downhillgames> dedi, lspci | grep VGA
[05:21] <NixMan> i'm really into writing tutorials, anyone know of any tutorials that need to be written?
[05:22] <T-Connect> virualbox sucks
[05:22] <T-Connect> Damn thing won't go anywhere.
[05:22] <dedi> downhillgames: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 0400 (rev a1)
[05:22] <spikeb> NixMan, yeah. a better one on making custom usplashes
[05:22] <Jack_Sparrow> tinin: the wrong driver will give you a slow connection.
[05:22] <francis__> tinin: i use the same config inM$ and it works at 11 mb/ps
[05:22] <downhillgames> dedi, what is the beginning of that line? (the numbers)
[05:23] <BashBang> NixMan : can you wite a tutorial for my girlfriend?
[05:23] <dedi> downhillgames: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller:
[05:23] <tinin> francis so go on
[05:23] <downhillgames> dedi, make sure your BusID in xorg.conf starts with 1
[05:23] <matkix> Hey, I need a lil help following a installation read-me anyone here willing to read along with me and answer some rather lame linux ubnutu questions?
[05:23] <downhillgames> dedi, it's in the Device section (below your driver line-ish)
[05:23] <NixMan> spikeb: hmm..i've never did that before, but i assume you can use gimp and then apply with the spashscreen pacakge?
[05:24] <NixMan> BashBang: what for
[05:24] <dedi> downhillgames: it does already. x is running but only with nv drivers
[05:24] <spikeb> NixMan, no idea.
[05:24] <downhillgames> dedi, oh. hmm. then why can't it find the card? (any specific error?)
[05:24] <rafaelscj> where can i found the Genius Webcam's driver?
[05:24] <rafaelscj> find*
[05:24] <summer_s4> I hvae a question.  Is it good to leave ubuntu on?
[05:24] <downhillgames> dedi, check /var/log for xorg.log files
[05:24] <NixMan> spikeb: i think i know how to do it, but the problem is making them look good is hard unless you are just good at image creation.
[05:25] <NixMan> i'm really into writing tutorials, anyone know of any tutorials that need to be written?
[05:25] <spikeb> NixMan, ahh ok
[05:25] <T-Connect> virualbox installer is fuck up.
[05:25] <rafaelscj> NixMan, write about webcam
[05:25] <BashBang> matkix : I'll help you since I know what your up against
[05:25] <matkix> hahaah
[05:25] <NixMan> Falstius: i don't understnad that myself :( i tried for a while, but i think my cam is broken. i could figure it out if i had a newer cam
[05:25] <matkix> oh wow you love me!
[05:26] <BashBang> lol
[05:26] <matkix> BashBang: So was it you that had to go to work?
[05:26] <spikeb> NixMan, my advice, as far as finding topics to write about would be to peruse the forums, see what poeple have the most problems with, and write about that.
[05:26] <bipolar> Does anyone know of a GUI for keeping track and signing ssl certs?
[05:26] <NixMan> spikeb: that is a great idea, then i could answer the forums with the tutorial
[05:26] <BashBang> matkix : called in sick
[05:26] <T-Connect> I kill virualbox installer
[05:26] <spikeb> NixMan, yep
 virtualbox is very easy to install, they even have got a repository for feisty. Maybe it isn't as good as vmware, but it has given me no headaches like vmware
[05:27] <BashBang> matkix : what is the name of your card again?
[05:27] <T-Connect> It won't install.
[05:27] <matkix_> BashBang:  Is it alright if we go pm on this one? I'm gettin a lil tired and it would be really nice to be in pm.
[05:27] <T-Connect> It just sit there.
[05:28] <krspy> could somebody help me out? i installed nvidia kernel version 1.0-9755, but every time i reboot it is recognized as version 1.0-7184, so i get an "api mismatch"
[05:28] <T-Connect> Maybe virualbox installer is screw up.
[05:28] <Geminia1> i'm touching myself
[05:28] <krspy> any pointers?
[05:28] <dedi> downhillgames: yes,  Please ensure that there is a supported NVIDIA GPU in this system. is the only message. i think because its a "unknown device"
[05:28] <downhillgames> dedi, neat. what video card do you have?
[05:28] <T-Connect> I will click on it again.

[05:47] <Andyho> crap.. still isn't installed.. wtf..
[05:48] <rolfen> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, i'll try that
[05:48] <NixMan> what is the correct tar command that should be used to extract a tar.gz? isn't it somthing like tar -xv?
[05:48] <T-Connect> Maybe it that screw up virualshitbox installer screw it up.
[05:48] <tinin> T-Connect close synaptic and open a terminal and write : sudo aptitude update
[05:48] <ali1234> downhillgames: permanent error between keyboard and chair
[05:48] <tinin> and tell what happens
[05:48] <dxdt> Seoke: yeah, Kdevelop is one.  Anjuta is another.  Also you can use the less than full IDE's but > than nothing editors  that are vim and emacs
[05:48] <Bryan> Ive got an acknowledged wired connection, but no internet, any ideas?
[05:48] <downhillgames> ali1234, or tab completion issues ;)
[05:48] <RoC_MasterMind> NixMan, follow the form of the usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop file
[05:48] <Jack_Sparrow> rolfen:np... shields up
[05:49] <RoC_MasterMind> NixMan, to extract a tar...  tar -xvf filename.tar   or tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz
[05:49] <tinin> T-Connect wich kind of file did you donwload, wasn't it a .deb file?
[05:49] <ali1234> downhillgames: not you, nvm...
[05:49] <Jack_Sparrow> NixMan: tar xvpfz backup.tgz -C /
[05:49] <downhillgames> ali1234, O_o k
[05:49] <Seoke> dxdt, I tried both of them and neither of them seem to work for me with KDevelop I get an error and Anjuta says theres no target executable selected when I try to exectute the hello world program
[05:49] <ajfernandez> Jose ngel
[05:49] <T-Connect> I will reinstall 7.04 and I won't mess with it again.
[05:50] <NixMan> RoC_MasterMind: just figured out the tar, but will i have to host the .desktop file? then have the script to download it? i think that will work...but where will i add it? i mean, where is the correct location to add the file?
[05:50] <Bryan> I've got a wired connection established but no internet, can anyone help?
[05:50] <optimusrex> Hi all. Please help me get my Adept manager recognise that I am the admin
[05:50] <NixMan> RoC_MasterMind: ah, i'd put it in /applications, right?
[05:51] <RoC_MasterMind> NixMan, /usr/share/applications/   there also seems to be some sort of command to make the menu update right away(without having to logout)...it might be  update-app-install but I don't know.
[05:51] <spikeb> optimusrex, how are you starting it?
[05:51] <Andyho> does anyone know of any progs that are like active desktop calendar?
[05:51] <T-Connect> Yep it is virualbox problem. E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[05:51] <T-Connect> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[05:51] <NixMan> RoC_MasterMind: i'll try that
[05:51] <optimusrex> under applications clicking the icon
[05:51] <dxdt> Seoke: that's odd.  I mean they definitely work since they are used to build massive things like KDE, etc.  I would just fiddle with it some more to make sure it works.  Also, did you install the package build-essential?  That may be an issue if you haven't already.
[05:51] <CapaH> Question, how can I specify what I want my sound device to be? I went to system preferences | sound -- and I set it to "USB Sound" -- (for my headset) -- but even after I click close, the speakers and not the headset continue to make the noise.. ?
[05:51] <Bryan> I've got a wired connection established but no internet, can anyone help?
 so go on, you will screw a few times your system before you learn XD. then search for whatever you need to do here http://ubuntuguide.org/
[05:51] <optimusrex> spikeb, its under applications then going to system tools
[05:52] <optimusrex> why?
[05:52] <spikeb> hmm
[05:52] <spikeb> optimusrex, that should prompt you for an admin password before it launches.
[05:52] <Seoke> dxdt, How would I check I'm not sure xD I've been installing a ton of stuff just got ubuntu up and running yesterday
[05:52] <Bryan> I've got a wired connection established but no internet, can anyone help?
[05:52] <T-Connect> I don't care about virualbox. It piss me off.
[05:52] <dxdt> Seoke: just use Synaptic.  It will be listed as installed if it is already installed.
[05:53] <Seoke> dxdt, Whats it called again?
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Bryan: have you checked the hardware page to see if there are any issuse with your card.?
[05:53] <optimusrex> spikeb, it is not doing that. It's just telling me that I can only use it under read only mode
[05:53] <Bryan> It worked earlier, Jack Sparrow
 you won't need it, linux has great programs
[05:53] <HHP2K> Hey guys, does anyone know if there's a channel for awn?
[05:53] <spikeb> optimusrex, well you can launch it from the command line - open up a terminal and type sudo adept-manager
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Bryan: np.. had to ask.. anything been installed since tit last worked
[05:53] <sipior> Bryan: how did you set up your network? do you have a default route set?
[05:53] <thrilla> hey
[05:53] <Seoke> dxdt, Yup it wasnt installed
[05:53] <Bryan> Then I had to Restart, and neither the wired or wireless works
[05:53] <thrilla> i need some help
[05:54] <T-Connect> I do need something to run FinalBurn Aplha
[05:54] <Bryan> Ive got no default route set, I don't believe
[05:54] <thrilla> i was trying to get the linux version of there.com
[05:54] <UfORiC> Hello everyone
[05:54] <sipior> Bryan: could you paste the results of "/sbin/ifconfig" and "/sbin/route -n" in the pastebin?
[05:54] <thrilla> and keep getting a message to use internet explorer
[05:54] <Seoke> Anyone know why I keep getting E: mldonkey-server: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 when I install things with synaptic?
[05:55] <thrilla> how the heck do i get the linux package?
[05:55] <optimusrex> spikeb, this is what I get "sudo: adept-manager: command not found"
[05:55] <spikeb> hmm
[05:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Seoke: HAve you made any changes to your sources list
[05:55] <spikeb> optimusrex, try sudo adept and press tab, see what it lists
[05:55] <UfORiC> is there any specific channel for server related questions? thanks
[05:56] <Bryan> im on a different computer, but I will type it out here
[05:56] <radioman> 3ddesk rocks! thx again ;}
[05:56] <Seoke> Jack_Sparrow, I dont think so is there anyway to change that file back to default in case I have?
[05:56] <sipior> Bryan: best to use the pastebin
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Seoke: YEs, easy to edit..
[05:56] <sipior> there's a bit of data there...
[05:56] <thrilla> anyone know how to solve my issue?
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !easysource
[05:56] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic

[05:56] <HHP2K> Has anyone been checking out the new Awn Svn and can tell me about the installation process?
[05:56] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[05:57] <Seoke> Jack_Sparrow, Thanks
[05:57] <HHP2K> The installer for awn tells me that I'm missing a bunch of packages that I know I'm not, so why isn't it finding them?
[05:57] <thrilla> probably not installed correctly
[05:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Seoke: HAve you used scripts to install anything.. they change sources..
[05:58] <Seoke> Jack_Saparrow, Yeah a couple things that synaptic didnt let me install for some reason
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Seoke: Which scripts did you use?
[05:58] <thrilla> can someone help me?
[05:58] <francis> Jack_Sparrow: still no luck its still the same speed
[05:58] <Seoke> Jack_Sparrow, Cant remember exactly
[05:58] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[05:59] <surviver> hello evry1, i heared somewhere that u need to pay (not open source) for decode to mp3? is that right? and my second question, if u got mp3 files on ur linux distro u can play them ? without paying
[05:59] <optimusrex> spikeb, a lot of stuff just came up on the Konsole and adept then started without the priveleges issue. Do you think the problem is solved?
[05:59] <spikeb> optimusrex, i have no idea to be honest
[05:59] <Anlar> surviver: you can go around paying, no need to pay for anything ever in this life
[05:59] <FurryNemesis> surviver, yep to the 2nd
[05:59] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[05:59] <HHP2K> surviver: I don't see why you couldn't play mp3s on linux.. that works fine with the right programs
[05:59] <Jack_Sparrow> francis: did you remove the old driver first?  I am a novice at wireless... but one tutorial said to blacklist the previous driver
[06:00] <preaction_> !mp3 | surviver

[06:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Seoke: automatix and envy are BAD tools
[06:00] <thrilla> can you guys even hear me?
[06:00] <thrilla> lol
[06:00] <surviver> HHP2K, yes i can play them but i heared someone say that u need to pay for decoding mp3 etc
[06:00] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[06:00] <Andyho> what the hey.. I'm following exactly what it says on winehq and it just ain't workin.. ugh!!

[06:00] <raccoon4444> Hello All, Does anyone know the default interface configuration for etc/network/interfaces
[06:01] <toryl__> thrilla: are you looking to spoof your browser or actually install IE on your linux box?
[06:01] <Anlar> surviver: well, officially.. perhaps.. it's kinda hazy, but the patent proprietors are unofficially permitting it.. officially every mp3 decoder seller/distributor should pay
[06:01] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[06:01] <thrilla> i guess the first
[06:01] <thrilla> cause firefox does work with there.com site
[06:01] <thrilla> there.com is just being an a$$ about it
[06:01] <francis> Jack_Sparrow: where is the old driver
[06:02] <francis> Jack_Sparrow: i think i am still using the same divr
[06:02] <surviver> Anlar, oke... i just heared it thats why i was asking myself... never did it or sonthing...
[06:02] <thrilla> and is there a way to make the font bigger?
[06:02] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[06:02] <toryl__> thrilla: there is a firefox plugin called Modify Headers that will probably do what you want: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/967
[06:02] <Jack_Sparrow> francis: Do a search for ubuntu broadcom blacklist etc.. sorry that is the limit of my wireless knowledge..
[06:02] <thrilla> this is really really tiny and hard for me to read
[06:02] <lsproc> How do I get a login window nested in my session?
[06:03] <blackace11> i have a external usb drive and i seemed to lock my self out of it... i can't do sudo gparted and mount it...
[06:03] <Seoke> Jack_Sparrow, Still pops up but its not doing anything bad its still letting me install apps its just an annoyance I can deal with it
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> blackace11: Are you on a dual boot system?
[06:03] <optimusrex> spikeb, thanks for your help. I'm installing java so let me finish that then I will restart adept to see if the problem is over. Bye for now
[06:03] <francis> Jack_Sparrow: let me look it up
[06:03] <Anlar> surviver: mp3 is heavily patent encumbered, and the ip owner sues and practically smashes every company selling mp3 devices etc if they have not paid for it.. they are really ruthless and effective and they always win because they have got right to that.. for instance microsoft is paying for mp3 support in wmp just like everyone else
[06:04] <blackace11> yah
[06:04] <blackace11> but i'm not using it as dual boot
[06:04] <Bryan> Sipior are you there?
[06:04] <raccoon4444> I seemed to have deleted my network interfaces, and i was wondering if anyone could copy and paste their /etc/network/interfaces so i could get back to normal
[06:04] <genii> thrilla If you have a scrollmouse a fast font change is with ctrl and scrollwheel
[06:04] <Anlar> surviver: but also they have decided to ignore non-commercial linux distributions playing with mp3 support.. for now. it's unofficial, they have never really given any statement about it, they are unwilling to do that either
[06:04] <sipior> Bryan: i am
[06:04] <Jack_Sparrow> blackace11: It might be a windows lock on that drive...
[06:04] <thrilla> ctrl + scrollwheel didn't do it
[06:04] <blackace11> i have used it before
[06:05] <Anlar> surviver: but now, for instance behind Ubuntu there is.. Canonical.. a company. then it becomes problematic.. for Canonical to support Ubuntu which has mp3 support
[06:05] <surviver> Anlar, i see... well i love open-source:p
[06:05] <Jack_Sparrow> blackace11: YEs, but you might need to scandisk it in windows..
[06:05] <blackace11> ok
[06:05] <Anlar> surviver: it might stop any day. they can sue and butt fuck every open source software using mp3 technology in split seconds.
[06:05] <blackace11> but when i hook it up to windows laptop it shows it in hardware, but not in mycomputer
[06:05] <genii> thrilla Weird, may be only win ver then.
[06:05] <stephen> yo
[06:05] <surviver> Anlar, yeah kind of suck
[06:05] <C-{pR0F> Help!!! ...
[06:06] <blackace11> i think it's part of something i did with the permisions..
[06:06] <C-{pR0F> i've removed the oem user that came with the installation from another user ,, but now , the user that i'm using , can't do anything , and i don't know how to enter to the User and Groups to fix that ,,, the user and group doesn;t apear in the system->adminstartion
[06:06] <C-{pR0F> is there anyway to fix that !!!!
[06:06] <Anlar> surviver: not really. mp3 isn't the best of breed anyways anymore.. it wouldn't really hurt people
[06:06] <thrilla> so how do i make the font bigger?
[06:06] <surviver> Anlar, i was just wondering what this "law" was about ... :D
[06:07] <thrilla> and that addon for firefox didn't do anything, same problem
[06:07] <scoobydoo28139> someone point me in the direction to get drivers for my 8500gt nvidia card?
[06:07] <sipior> Bryan: i think you were going to send me a pastebin link, wasn't it?
[06:07] <surviver> Anlar, well i am a windows men for about 5 years (switeched month ago to linux ) on that distro i got like 5 gig of mp3 files... lol
[06:07] <Jack_Sparrow> blackace11: I have seen issues here where you need to fix it from windows side... let me see if I have any notes on it..
[06:07] <blackace11> ok
[06:07] <blackace11> thanks!!!
[06:07] <thrilla> try the nvidia.com web site for drivers
[06:07] <toryl__> thrilla: re your font, tell us your chat client.  re modify headers, you actually have to add the header for it to work.
[06:08] <Seoke> How do I uprade from 6.04 to 6.06
[06:08] <thrilla> xchat i am using, but i really want the font to be bigger for the entire system
[06:08] <Anlar> surviver: you can mass transform them into for instance ogg vorbis :) although it's not healthy to re-encode the same audio again
[06:08] <surviver> Anlar, mzz oke :))
[06:08] <sipior> Seoke: i think one of those doesn't exist
[06:08] <Water> Someone here has experience with wireless connections under ubuntu :)?
[06:09] <sipior> Seoke: it was 6.06 and then 6.10. or is my memory all off?
[06:09] <surviver> Anlar, nrmally i dont encode and stuff only for making cd audio files ... mp3 wont work on a ordinary radio...
[06:09] <thrilla> thank god
[06:09] <Seoke> sipior oh yeah sorry I have 6.06
[06:09] <thrilla> i fixed the font problem
[06:09] <Seoke> sipior, You're right it was a long night last night so how do I upgrade?
[06:09] <thrilla> changed the resolution
[06:09] <syntaxx> im having a problem in cups.. whenever a user pause the the job it pauses all other queue anyone know how can i fix this or what am i missing?
[06:09] <rambo3> Seoke, update-manager -c
[06:10] <screewedup> help with video card?
[06:10] <Seoke> rambo3, Awesome thanks!
[06:10] <thrilla> so what do i have to do to this firefox addon?
[06:10] <genii> thrilla BTW maybe try shift and scrollwheel instead of ctrl
[06:10] <dxdt> scoobydoo28139: don't go to the website. Just go to http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_nvidia_drivers_in_7.04 or just google around because I believe it is pretty well everywhere t
[06:11] <rambo3> np
[06:11] <surviver> Anlar, well anyway thx for the info about the mp3 stuff and de-enconding.. i gtg
[06:11] <thrilla> i think i need to do that also dxdt
[06:11] <thrilla> thanks

[06:14] <sipior> RkyRaccoon: sounds like a video driver problem. can you login to the computer from another machine?
[06:15] <IdleOne> craig_, search in synaptic package manager there are plenty of players
[06:15] <gadren> craig, do you need an mp3 player, or do you need the mp3 codecs?
[06:15] <olli__> who is operator?
[06:15] <RkyRaccoon> sipior: no, im using the fglrx driver from repositories on a radeon x1950pro
[06:15] <JJNova> What's the deal with the Ubuntu Repos? What changes do they make between the actual release and the version in the repos? For instance, I added the Repository for WINE, so that I could get the newest release immediately. Then when the Ubuntu version was released, I updated to that, but it's different. So it made me question what differences there are between an application and the ubuntu versions on a general level.
[06:15] <toryl__> thrilla: add a new header named user-agent with your spoofed header as the value.   It's located in tools --> modify headers.

[06:18] <rambo3> HHP2K, i dont care

[06:20] <matkix> Can anyone tell me where the xconfig is located on ubuntu?
[06:20] <Andyho> thrilla - why would you want to?
[06:21] <sipior> RkyRaccoon: when you log on in recovery mode, look for system logs in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. see if there is any indication of the problem
[06:21] <thrilla> cause the web site www.there.com won't support firefox
[06:21] <craig_> sorry i am new to ubuntu

[06:21] <thrilla> and i need to get the linux package to run it
[06:21] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: You can install it in wine but it also tends to break wine acording to winehq

[06:21] <craig_> just carnt do  mp3 player
[06:21] <thrilla> so what else can i do to fix it?
[06:21] <RoC_MasterMind> thrilla, MS does not support Linux, and has hurt you by encouraging sites that are proprietary to one browser.
[06:22] <RkyRaccoon> sipior, the one thing is "fglrx(o): [drm]  removed 1 reserved context for kernel"
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: do you use wine for anything else?
[06:22] <IdleOne> craig_, what version of ubuntu you running?

[06:22] <RkyRaccoon> sipior, ill be back in like 5 mins
[06:22] <ddelony> thrilla: Short answer: You can't install IE on Linux, even with WINE.

[06:22] <thrilla> i know what wine is, but have never used it
[06:22] <Andyho> brb... next install...
[06:22] <vicentecarro> How can i just download all the deb packages of every package installed in my machine?
[06:22] <RoC_MasterMind> if you want this bad behavior to continue, use this software: http://tatanka.com.br
[06:22] <IdleOne> ok craig_ then you need to enable the repositories.
[06:22] <RkyRaccoon> sipior, thanks anyways, i appreciate the help, ill try someone else when i get back

[06:23] <Carloz> vicentecarro:  u can try www.getdeb.net
[06:23] <thrilla> basicly, does anyone here have the there.com linux package?
[06:23] <vicentecarro> Carloz, i goto check that url
[06:23] <toryl__> thrilla:  it looks like the site wants you to run a Windows installer as well, and they don't have a linux package, as stated in their system requirements.
[06:23] <Carloz> ok.
[06:24] <ddelony> There is no there.com linux package.
[06:24] <thrilla> they do torl_

[06:27] <GigaClon> yeah
[06:27] <thrilla> ddelony, ubantu is linux
[06:27] <FurryNemesis> ddelony, no, it comes with the magic "null" kernel that does magic things

[06:28] <CerebroJD> ok, significant progress made on wireless problem
[06:28] <FurryNemesis> I think
[06:28] <toryl__> thrilla:  I can see nowhere on there.com or any other place that they have a linux version of the installer.  Maybe whatever source told you it does, would be a good place to start for more info.
[06:28] <sowik> elo
[06:28] <simpleH> dir

[06:28] <thrilla> a user on there told me toryl

[06:29] <ddelony> Ok, Cursed_6_ds, what do you need help with?
[06:29] <NixMan> im writing a script, how can i make it automatically add a menu entry? someone suggested a .desktop file..
[06:30] <Ooglebert> My wireless was working fine, then I had to shut down after a freeze up, and I can't connect, can anyone help?
[06:30] <epp> hey guys. Is there a program that can change the priority of my CPU? Like in windows i could set it to battery life/full performance.
[06:30] <Cursed_6_ds> ddelony: my question doesn't relate to Ubuntu problems, i am conducting a workshop on ubuntu to spread awareness and to let them know what i know, so to spread it, for that i want to create a A4 size poster, is there a nice poster regrading to ubuntu which i cna use?
[06:30] <IMYojimbo> plz help me. i closed the Formula signs toolbox on OpenOffice. how do i bring it back? dont take it away from me??
[06:30] <CerebroJD> Ooglebert, did it lose the interface alltogether?
[06:31] <Ooglebert> Sometimes it will pick up, but not for long
[06:31] <Ooglebert> It will disconnect afterwards
[06:31] <CerebroJD> yeah, I had a similar problem... freeze-up then lost the interface completely
[06:31] <Ooglebert> Never connects for very long
[06:31] <Ooglebert> what did you do?
[06:31] <ddelony> Ooglebert: Are there any cordless phones nearby?
[06:31] <CerebroJD> I ended up going through the install process for the card again

[06:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about video driver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:33] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla:  did you try  IEs4Linux.com
[06:33] <C-{pR0F> what's the default su password ,,, i tried everything , it's not working
[06:33] <thrilla> ya but it looks weird
[06:33] <CerebroJD> Ooglebert, mine was/is kind of an odd circumstance... I've been trying to get wireless via a draft-n connection (doesnt work yet, btw), so yes I reinstalled everything like 3 times before deciding to go with wireless-g
[06:33] <glam> hi everyone, is there any Eclipse 3.3 apt sources or debs for feisty?
[06:33] <CerebroJD> so I doubt its fully necessary
[06:33] <Ooglebert> Oh
[06:34] <thrilla> not sure i wanna do that on a new system install jack
[06:34] <CerebroJD> what make is your wireless card?
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: I agree....
[06:34] <ddelony>  C-{pR0F: Ubuntu's root password is off by default.
[06:34] <Ooglebert> its a broadcom.
[06:34] <RkyRaccoon> can someone help me with my ubuntu not starting up
[06:34] <ddelony> Use sudo in an administrator account.
[06:34] <CerebroJD> should just be able to do a: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[06:34] <CerebroJD> try that and see if it lives... reboot may be needed
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: Even if you get ie to work that site/program could hose your system all up
[06:34] <vicentecarro> Theory, that project could be fine with more time but i'm very busy. // ddelony, yes, those machines will be online but i can not reinstall them,i'm not allowed./// ubotu great, with the first command i have got a list of deb file. Now i have to remove the "install" state to the right and i can download all by normal methods
[06:35] <mjunx> put ndiswrapper in your /etc/modules file if you want it to persist! :)
[06:35] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, you getting a grub error?
[06:35] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, no
[06:35] <Theory> dpkg --get-selections | grep 'install$' | awk '{print $1}'
[06:35] <thrilla> well, if it does, i will reinstall
[06:35] <Ooglebert> IT asked for my password then nothing, is that right?
[06:35] <ddelony> vicentecarro: You could set up a local repository for your machines.
[06:35] <mjunx> what's the problem then, RkyRaccoon?
[06:35] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, im not getting any error, i just get a black screen after the loading screen
[06:36] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, what video card do you have?
[06:36] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx ati radeon x1950pro
[06:36] <thrilla> ok
[06:36] <ddelony> RkyRacoon: Do you still have the install disc?
[06:36] <vicentecarro> However ubotu how can i remove the all non "install" lines and then remove that "install"  word? // ddelony: yes, that's the idea, but first i have to download all the packages that i have installed here
[06:36] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, its supposedly supported by the fglrx driver and worked fine untill today
[06:36] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, does the installer cd work fine?
[06:36] <thrilla> synaptic package manager did find wine
[06:36] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: That is why I said.. Please have a full backup.. it only takes three lines in a terminal
[06:36] <Ooglebert> CerebroJD, it asked for my password and then it didn't say anything
[06:36] <RkyRaccoon> ddelony, the ubuntu installer?
[06:36] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, well, it's not like ati is known for their good drivers ;)
[06:36] <thrilla> installing now
[06:37] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, to install ubuntu?
[06:37] <MrXorg> !disk usage
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about disk usage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:37] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, yeah, the install CD
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> when wine is done... make a system backup
[06:37] <MrXorg> !disk
[06:37] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[06:37] <ddelony> Maybe RkyRaccoon's filesystem went scrwey.
[06:37] <mjunx> disk usage like "du" or "df" or what?
[06:37] <thrilla> how do i do that jack?
[06:37] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, i installed it and it was running fine for a good two weeks or so before it started doing this
[06:37] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, have you installed or modified any of the xorg drivers since then?
[06:38] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, no
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo su.... password  cd space /   ....tar cvpzf backupdell.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backupdell.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media -- /
[06:38] <mhz`-> god damnit, ok...here's my prob...just installed ubuntu on another machine..dual booting it. the install goes fine when i go to login my keyboard doesn't work
[06:38] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, try pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to the first terminal
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: that is how I do mine
[06:38] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, the newest driver i think was adding ntfs-3g support but that was last week
[06:38] <thrilla> just paste it?
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[06:38] <mhz`-> i have both a microsoft wireless internet 1.0a & typical ergo keyboard
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: that is three lines
[06:38] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, see if you can get non-graphical access after it loads
[06:38] <Dumderflu> Is there anyway to enable network connections in terminal?
[06:38] <mhz`-> any ideas?
[06:38] <RkyRaccoon> mjunx, that never works for me.  How about recovery mode
[06:38] <ddelony> RkyRaccoon: There should be an option in the cd menu to "Rescue an unbootable system"
[06:39] <mjunx> Dumderflu, with ifup and ifdown, but I don't know how well that works with NetworkManager and all
[06:39] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, that would work
[06:39] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: to restore... sudo su.... cd /     and tar xvpfz backup.tgz -C /
[06:39] <RkyRaccoon> ddelony, ive never seen that option
[06:39] <genii> Dumderflu: Yes.    sudo ifup <adaptername>     eg:   sudo ifup eth0
[06:39] <Andyho> hmm.. so now I have wine installed, but now trying to figure out how to exactly install this exe I need..
[06:39] <thrilla> i cann't copy and past that
[06:39] <Dumderflu> mjunx, It doesnt.  Thanks though
[06:39] <ddelony> !rescue
[06:39] <thrilla> oh well, off to toast my OS i guess

[06:39] <glam> Howto install Eclipse 3.3 on feisty?
[06:40] <RkyRaccoon> ddelony, awesome i have an alternate cd
[06:40] <mjunx> Dumderflu, I think you need to try the rescue thing (download the alternate install CD, not the normal one), or perhaps your filesystem is corrupt like someone else mentioned
[06:40] <Jack_Sparrow> thrilla: first command  is sudo su   second is   cd /    third is    tar cvpzf backupdell.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backupdell.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media -- /
[06:40] <mjunx> RkyRaccoon, well, go and try it out! :)

[06:46] <mrhyd3> Anyone here running beryl w/ an ATI Radeon/
[06:46] <thrilla> ok, it seems to have gone ok
[06:46] <simpleH> it said it unpacked replacement nvidia-glx, and it set up "nvidia-glx (1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-16.29)"
[06:46] <RkyRaccoon> ddelony, on the list of rescue operations which should i choose, "execute a shell..." "reinstall GRUB boot loadter", etc
[06:46] <ppp0> i just turned on my pc to find tht i dont have internet connection over it! i tried poff/pon dsl-provider! it still didnt work! whts up with tht?
[06:46] <simpleH> but it's still erroring when I try to use startx
[06:47] <simpleH> the screen goes black for half a second like it is going to work, then it has the same error
[06:47] <mrhyd3> no activity in #ubuntu-effects or #xgl
[06:47] <thrilla> ok jack
[06:48] <jetscreamer> grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:48] <thrilla> IE is installing, lets hope it works
[06:48] <thrilla> now how do i run this thing?
[06:48] <ARM9> What's up with the postfix stuff when I chosed if I want to use gdm or kdm as standard??
[06:49] <thrilla> i'd like to create a shortcut to do so if possiable
[06:49] <rolfen> if i do ctrl-alt-f1 to access a tty, and then attempt to go back to x by pressing ctrl-alt-f6, i will only get a flickering blue screen until i restart the computer. have tried restarting gdm and x, doesnt help
[06:49] <kiss> good bye everyone .i'll go to bed.;)
[06:49] <ddelony> I'd try "execute a shell in the installer environment."
[06:49] <rolfen> any idea?
[06:50] <thrilla> well, the good news is IE4linux worked
[06:50] <mrhyd3> my only problem w/ Beryl is that I don't see any effects taking place...I loaded it, it's the Window Manager...<shrug>
[06:50] <kiss> /leave
[06:50] <simpleH> mjunx: any idea what to try next?
[06:50] <kiss> /quite
[06:50] <glam> Anyone suggest a ruby editor?
[06:51] <mjunx> simpleH, try editting your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[06:51] <Anlar> glam: gedit. it doesn't look like much, but actually enable the plugins and it's a lot like that editor that the mac paople have
[06:51] <mjunx> change the line that says "nvidia" to "nv"
[06:51] <Daveyboy> is there an undo command?
[06:51] <mjunx> Daveyboy, for what?
[06:51] <thrilla> great
[06:51] <thrilla> ie4linux installed ok
[06:51] <thrilla> but it won't open the web page
[06:51] <thrilla> worthless pos
[06:51] <Daveyboy> to 'undo' the last command if I made a mistake
[06:51] <Cyber_Stalker> how big is a ubuntu install?
[06:51] <ddelony> What kind of mistake?
[06:51] <Daveyboy> rm
[06:52] <dxdt> ruh roh
[06:52] <ddelony> Nope
[06:52] <ddelony> File deletion in the command line is forever.
[06:52] <Cyber_Stalker> LOL @ undo file deletion :D
[06:52] <Cilay_Mecur> hello
[06:52] <ddelony> Moral: think before you type.
[06:53] <dxdt> and be careful using tab completion.  I've lost the wrong directory that way by hitting tab and enter too quickly without checking :-/
[06:53] <mjunx> Daveyboy, depends on the filesystem
[06:53] <glam> Anlar, thanks however I am looking for ruby editor along the line the Eclipse Ruby plug-in?
[06:53] <Cilay_Mecur> anyone able to help me out? trying to install Ubuntu but getting a "kernal Panic" error
[06:53] <simpleH> mjunx: which part? or, what does the line say   "Driver            "nvidia"?
[06:53] <HHP2K> Hey guys, for a typical install, what file holds the "PKG_CONFIG_PATH" environment variable?
[06:53] <mjunx> you can recover files from some filesystems pretty easily as long as you haven't written to disk
[06:53] <mjunx> simpleH, yeah, that line, change to "nv"
[06:53] <simpleH> alright
[06:54] <Anlar> glam: buggy and heavy. the only really promising one is that "aptana ide" but it's still incomplete
[06:54] <rafaelscj> Cyber_Stalker, 1,9 Gb
[06:54] <Biteyni> ahh
[06:54] <Biteyni> help
[06:54] <Biteyni> i have an external harddrive
[06:54] <Biteyni> and when i turned it on this morning
[06:54] <Biteyni> i couldn't get in
[06:54] <HHP2K> It exploded?
[06:54] <younghacker> hey can anyone help me out with importing an XML document doc into a postgreSQL database?
[06:54] <HHP2K> Oh damn.
[06:54] <Biteyni> no
[06:55] <Cyber_Stalker> thanks rafaelscj
[06:55] <HHP2K> They do that sometimes
[06:55] <Biteyni> no
[06:55] <HHP2K> better be careful.
[06:55] <Biteyni> it says inaccsiable
[06:55] <HHP2K> check all the cords?
[06:55] <Biteyni> it says something corrupted
[06:55] <younghacker> or lead me to a site that provides information on this...
[06:55] <Biteyni> directory
[06:55] <rafaelscj> Cyber_Stalker, you're welcome
[06:55] <Biteyni> im in windows at the moment
[06:55] <ddelony> Biteyni: Have you tried running fsck on it?
[06:55] <Biteyni> and its not letting me in
[06:55] <HHP2K> oh boy
[06:56] <HHP2K> those suck.
[06:56] <ddelony> What are the mount points for external drives?
[06:56] <simpleH> mjunx: alright, that seemed to work...it looks pretty terrible at the moment, but I'm sure I can figure out the rest in the gui to fix it
[06:56] <simpleH> mjunx: thanks
[06:56] <Andyho> ok.. so I tried loading an exe in wine and it came back with could not load l"c:\\windows\\system32\\kasamba.exe" module not found.. NO WINDOWS?!?
[06:56] <Biteyni> When I click to go in i get "The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable"
[06:57] <Andyho> any ideas?!
[06:57] <sixtyeight> Is there a command to show what modules are currently loaded and in use?
[06:57] <dxdt> sixtyeight: lsmod
[06:57] <mjunx> simpleH, you can try downloading the latest nvidia drivers from their site, but be warned that you'll need to reinstall it every time you upgrade the kernel (not very often in a stable release, but if you're trying ubuntu+1,  oh boy...)
[06:57] <sixtyeight> Ok, thanks!
[06:57] <ddelony> Biteyni: Do you know what filesystem the drive was formatted in?
[06:57] <Biteyni> NTSF
[06:57] <Biteyni> but windows is telling me its RAW now
[06:57] <simpleH> mjunx, heh, alright thanks again
[06:57] <Biteyni> *cries*
[06:57] <mjunx> no prob
[06:58] <ddelony> Did you write to the drive while in Ubuntu?
[06:58] <hendrixski> does anyone know what the commands are for mounting and unmounting usb devices... I mean, they're not in fstab so I don't think mount will get them :-(
[06:58] <Biteyni> um i did when trying to install but then gave up installing ubuntu on this one since i have ubuntu on others but when i restarted the drive was fine it was only when i came on today
[06:59] <Sammyhellsyea> hey guys...is it normal for an install to get stuck on 85% for a while
[06:59] <rafael__> hello people
[06:59] <ddelony> The aborted install might have corrupted the drive. I hope you have backups.
[06:59] <Biteyni> OMG!
[06:59] <Biteyni> NO!
[06:59] <Andyho> sammy: yeah mine did that a few times
[07:00] <ddelony> I'm sorry.
[07:00] <Biteyni> OMG!
[07:00] <Andyho> til I took out my vid card
[07:00] <Biteyni> AHHHHH!
[07:00] <skollie> hendrixski: usb devices are usually automounted even without an entry in fstab, but to mount , you would refer to it as either /dev/sda1 or /dev/sdb1
[07:00] <rafael__> i added the menu bar  in the bar of gnome... but that show some little and black thing under the icon.. someone knows how to disable that ?
[07:00] <Sammyhellsyea> ok thanks
[07:00] <rafaelscj> can i use /away here?
[07:00] <Biteyni> but it after the install yesterday i could still access it!
[07:00] <rafael__> i want just the menu bar without that small tray..
[07:00] <CerebroJD> ok, so the conclusion I've reached is that Feisty (and likely ALL attempts) doesnt work with draft-n protocols yet
[07:00] <rafael__> please
[07:00] <Biteyni> ddelony: but it after the install yesterday i could still access it!
[07:01] <jetscreamer> Biteyni: don't let anything write to the drive is step 1. google arund for some partition recovery tools. try them. pray.
[07:01] <rolfen> rafaelscj: what does /away do?
[07:01] <hendrixski> skollie, k... so.. I can still mount it  and it'll be either one of those two?
[07:01] <rolfen> jetscreamer: i recomment rstudio
[07:01] <ddelony> The drive may have just got corrupted on its own.
[07:01] <Andyho> needs a coffee refill..
[07:01] <CerebroJD> zomg wireless working
[07:01] <rafael__> anyone please ?
[07:01] <rolfen> jetscreamer:  oh sorry that was not for you
[07:01] <skollie> hendrixski: yes usually, but sometimes also /dev/sda2 or /dev/sdb2
[07:02] <hendrixski> skollie, ah,  Ok, I'll go play around with that then
[07:02] <rafaelscj> rolfen, It means that you are away
[07:02] <hendrixski> thanks
[07:02] <Cyber_Stalker> what program could i use to back up my drive, because i would like to shrink it so that i can dual boot. i dont know what app to use for the back up tho
[07:02] <ddelony> Biteyni: I'd try running a disk repair utility on the drive.
[07:02] <jetscreamer> Cyber_Stalker: cp -a from a live cd works well
[07:02] <rolfen> rafaelscj: but what does it look like to other users?
[07:02] <Cyber_Stalker> really?
[07:02] <EightEleven> ddelony: I think a recovery utility makes more sense.
[07:02] <Cyber_Stalker> that will create a back up?
[07:03] <skollie> hendrixski: however, if it does not automount, then likely you have a problem with usb, in which case it may not even mount manually
[07:03] <Biteyni> windows diskrepair wont load
[07:03] <Biteyni> because windows sees it as raw
[07:03] <CerebroJD> now that its all working, time to install updates (which will quite likely break stuff again)
[07:03] <naufraghi> hello, some hint to build a PyQt app using debug symbols?
[07:03] <pushpop> anyone know a good how to, to allow you to access shared from your ubuntu box in a Active Directory Enviroemnt
[07:04] <rafaelscj> rolfen, I don't know
[07:04] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Do you have Knoppix?
[07:04] <rolfen> rafaelscj: okay, thanks :)
[07:04] <MrXorg> Can anyone tell me what /var/cache is?
[07:05] <Biteyni> EightEleven: No, what is it?
[07:05] <Andeh> Hello. I currently do a LOT of PHP programming. Is there a good PHP specific or just webdesign in general app for ubuntu?
[07:05] <CerebroJD> Andeh, WYSIWYG or other?
[07:05] <Pavel> Hi. I just tried using Ubuntu 7.04 + gthumb to transfer photos from a camera. I selected the option to rotate images, and gthumb simply ate them all, saying that it was unable to move them from temporary to destination directory (which it had just created). This could be a matter of configuration (I had copied that gconf tree from a different GNOME installation), but if it turns out to be innate, what's the severity of that?
[07:05] <MrXorg> !/var/cahce
[07:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about var/cahce - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:05] <MrXorg> !/var/cache
[07:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about var/cache - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:06] <Andeh> CerebroJD: If possible yes, but obviously i'll need to edit the code (PHP).
[07:06] <CerebroJD> Andeh, have you tried Eclipse with the php modules installed?
[07:06] <CerebroJD> makes a good code editor
[07:06] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Knoppix is a bootable CD, just like the Ubuntu installer. I sometimes used it for recovering lost dat.a
[07:06] <skollie> MrXorg: ususally the dir under which items are cached for storage
[07:06] <EightEleven> data that is
[07:06] <Andeh> CerebroJD: isn't that java specific?
[07:06] <shadowhywind> hay all, I have a problem and i have no idea where to start to troubleshoot it. When i installed ubuntu, my mouse side scrolls would control my volumn, For some odd reason, it don't do it anymore.. any ideas?
[07:06] <CerebroJD> Andeh, I dont think so... pretty sure you can do more than just java with it
[07:06] <CerebroJD> I'll askin #eclipse
[07:06] <Andeh> thanks
[07:06] <killor> what's the command in GNOME-XChat downloaded off the Ubuntu rep. sites to open a multiple server window?
[07:06] <killor> ctrl+t doesnt work
[07:06] <killor> there is no xchat tab.
[07:07] <MrXorg> skollie: can I delete them?
[07:07] <Biteyni> EightEleven: so when i use it my external will work agian?
[07:07] <Andyho> ugh... why is wine looking for c:\\windows\\system32?!?
[07:07] <skollie> MrXorg: which particular ones?
[07:07] <Andeh> CerebroJD: By the way, i'd like a lightweight app if possible, my disk space is very limited. I have 500 MB left.
[07:07] <rafael__> when u add the menu bar .. the menu bar.. so a black small tray is there. how to delete that ?
[07:07] <CerebroJD> hmm
[07:07] <jetscreamer> killor: try /server servername?
[07:08] <CerebroJD> cutting it close eh?
[07:08] <CerebroJD> ;-)
[07:08] <killor> that just disconnects the current and reconnects it to servername?
[07:08] <killor> but nevermind, i figured it out.
[07:08] <killor> Ctrl+N then choose server.
[07:08] <killor> ty anyway :D
[07:08] <boguh> how can i mount a ext partiton from another disk so that a regular user can read from it?
[07:08] <EightEleven> Biteyni: You lost data on an external harddrive during an installation?
[07:08] <MrXorg> skollie: I have apache2 apt beagle cups apt-install man and a few more
[07:08] <CerebroJD> Andeh, http://phpeclipse.de/tiki-view_articles.php
[07:08] <Andeh> hmm
[07:08] <Biteyni> EightEleven: no
[07:09] <CerebroJD> Andeh, http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/ as well
[07:09] <Andeh> Thanks
[07:09] <Andeh> Isnt eclipse enormous?
[07:09] <Biteyni> EightEleven: after i tried doing an installation i stopped the install and restarted into windows xp
[07:09] <CerebroJD> not sure, I'll check that too
[07:09] <jetscreamer> boguh: add user to the options in fstab
[07:09] <Biteyni> EightEleven: the harddrive was fine
[07:09] <CerebroJD> didnt think it was
[07:09] <Andeh> lol
[07:09] <Biteyni> EightEleven: i downloaded stuff onto it
[07:09] <Andeh> i tried downloading for windows it was 200 mb or so
[07:09] <Andeh> lol
[07:09] <EightEleven> Biteyni: What did you mean by "external will work again"?
[07:10] <boguh> jetscreamer the device is in my ultrabay an i only want to mount it once. so i dont want to have an fstab entry
[07:10] <skollie> MrXorg: yes, there are usually a few, but some of the dirs are empty. They are stored in cache so you have easy access to them when needed. I'm actually not sure about deleting them and my general rule is - if unsure, leave well alone
[07:10] <CerebroJD> installer = 78 megs
[07:10] <CerebroJD> (for windows)
[07:10] <Biteyni> EightEleven: i had a program downloading files and i paused all the downloads and hybernated the computer in windows
[07:10] <CerebroJD> dunno how much bigger it could be for linux
[07:10] <Andeh> :I
[07:10] <Andeh> Maybe i'll stick with NVU
[07:10] <Andeh> lol
[07:10] <Biteyni> EightEleven: somebody here started the computer up and didn't turn on the harddrive
[07:11] <Biteyni> EightEleven: so the comptuer didn't read the harddrive
[07:11] <rafaelscj> In your opnion, what is the best IRC client for linux?
[07:11] <Cyber_Stalker> (jetscreamer) Cyber_Stalker: cp -a from a live cd works well
[07:11] <jetscreamer> boguh: mount -t auto -o defaults,uid=1000 /dev/this /mount/here  (probably) man mount
[07:11] <skollie> MrXorg: though its probably safe to delete some it, though I take no responsibility if it kills something ;)
[07:11] <EightEleven> Biteyni: The BIOS does not see the drive?
[07:11] <Andeh> CerebroJD: lol it doesnt even have a debugger :P
[07:11] <Andeh> thanks
[07:11] <Biteyni> EightEleven: i see the drive
[07:11] <Andeh> hmm
[07:11] <Cyber_Stalker> can some one help me quick. im trying to do this whole dual booting thing but im super worried i bork some thing
[07:11] <Cyber_Stalker> i really dont want to loose my data on the drive i have to install 2
[07:11] <skollie> Cyber_Stalker: what do you need?
[07:11] <Biteyni> EightEleven: i see the drive and all but windows software error im thinking since not alot of changes were done
[07:11] <Andeh> Unless there is a better small alternative for PHP i'll stick with NVU then
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> some one who could talk me through it
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> i have a guide open infront of me
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> but i havnt done this before
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> so a bit worried
[07:12] <Andeh> CerebroJD: LOL. Yeah i know :P
[07:12] <zanaga> how do i completely reset the gnome-power-manager battery statistics. It thinks my battery fails at 50% while it has no problems after that.
[07:12] <skollie> Cyber_Stalker: if you have a guide (reputable one that is) it should be no problem
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> !dual boot
[07:12] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[07:12] <Cyber_Stalker> thats what im following
[07:13] <Cyber_Stalker> but i would like some reassurance :D
[07:13] <EightEleven> Biteyni: So you were downloading files to the external harddrive and now Windows cannot read the external harddrive?
[07:13] <HHP2K> Guys, someone's got to help me here.
[07:13] <HHP2K> I've been trying to fix this bloody thing all day
[07:13] <Andeh> Hello. I installed the apache, php and mysql packages and now i want to remove them. Does anyone know the package names? I don't have a gui
[07:13] <HHP2K> and I've made little progress.
[07:13] <dxdt> Andeh: apache2, php5, mysql I think.
[07:13] <jetscreamer> apt-cache search apache apt-cache search whatever
[07:13] <skollie> Cyber_Stalker: it is an approved HOWTO - should work unless your system has peculiarities. I'm actually about to go help someone (physically) set up dual boot
[07:14] <Andeh> thanks
[07:14] <jetscreamer> dpkg -l
[07:14] <Biteyni> EightEleven: i was downloading onto it but then i paused downloading onto it and i hybernated the computer and went to bed
[07:14] <dxdt> Andeh: it is also an easy lookup in Synaptic.  You should be able to search for the name and find the package.
[07:14] <Biteyni> EightEleven: then somebody here went to computer turned it on and didn't turn on the external
[07:14] <Torahtee1> Hi everyone
[07:14] <Andeh> dxdt: ahem. i don't have a gui
[07:14] <Biteyni> EightEleven: so it was in hybernation
[07:14] <Torahtee1> I'm trying to get my Linksys USB adapter to work
[07:14] <Cyber_Stalker> ok skollie
[07:14] <jetscreamer> !info aptitude
[07:14] <ubotu> aptitude: terminal-based apt frontend. In component main, is important. Version 0.4.4-1ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 1428 kB, installed size 8556 kB
[07:14] <Torahtee1> I followed a tutorial
[07:14] <jetscreamer> yes you do
[07:14] <Cyber_Stalker> could u help me with the backing up maybe?
[07:14] <skollie> Cyber_Stalker: what will you be dual botting?
[07:14] <EightEleven> Biteyni: I understand now. And I know that Linux sometimes can read drives that Windows no longer can.
[07:14] <dxdt> Andeh: then dpkg -l like that other person said should work.  (I think)
[07:15] <Biteyni> EightEleven: and when the person turned it on didn't know the external eas suppose to be on
[07:15] <Cyber_Stalker> windows and ubuntu 6.06
[07:15] <Torahtee1> the drivers are installed and working in ndiswrapper
[07:15] <jetscreamer> dpkg -l |grep apache perhaps
[07:15] <skollie> Cyber_Stalker: sure - what do you need help with?
[07:15] <jetscreamer> or was it -L i forget
[07:15] <CerebroJD> arrrrrrrrrrrrrrg
[07:15] <Biteyni> EightEleven: so what should i do?
[07:15] <Torahtee1> But the tutorial said that after connecting my USB adapter, the link ight would start blinking after about 3 seconds
[07:15] <Torahtee1> It's not blinking, it's solid
[07:15] <Andeh> hmm thanks guys. bye
[07:15] <CerebroJD> *whew* nevermind, things ok
[07:15] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Is the data on the drive really important?
[07:15] <jetscreamer> i think it blinks when there's file IO
[07:16] <Andyho> UGH!!! this is sooo pissing me off! WHY is it looking for windows?! I'm trying to install this exe, but it keeps giving me a dumb error about it not being in system32.. well duh.. there's no windows installed!
[07:16] <Torahtee1> I'm sorry, this is a Wireless Network USB adapter
[07:16] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Because if it is, then you could try to recover it, but it's usually not easy.
[07:16] <rafael__> how to edit the menu bar.. my menu bar is that kind of mac .. but behind that is a black  thing.. i want to remove that. .how ?
[07:16] <rafael__> please ..
[07:16] <Biteyni> EightEleven: yes data is important
[07:16] <jetscreamer> rafael__: paste a screenshot on a pastebin somewhere
[07:16] <HHP2K> Andyho: usually wine takes care of that little problem.. I'm not sure how, but it does. You're using wine, right?
[07:16] <bittin> Hej
[07:16] <bittin> Hi
[07:16] <skollie> Andyho: you installing an exe in ubuntu? Do you have wine installed and configured?
[07:17] <Andyho> hhp2k: yep. checked to make sure wine is installed.. all good. pull up wine kasamba.exe and it keeps telling me it's looking for windows/system32?!
[07:17] <bittin> How do i root in Nautlius?
[07:17] <Andyho> skollie: trying to! LOL
[07:17] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Do you have place to put the data?
[07:17] <jetscreamer> a picture is worth more than 1000 words on irc
[07:17] <Biteyni> EightEleven: lol no :(
[07:17] <dxdt> Biteyni: alt+f2 gksudo nautilus
[07:18] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Usually when you recover, you only read the data from the drive and put it somewhere else.
[07:18] <Biteyni> in windows?
[07:18] <CerebroJD> should Ubuntu be able to see window's folder shares on a network?
[07:18] <dmesg> hi dudes
[07:18] <Biteyni> dxdt: alt+f2 gksudo nautilus  IN windows?
[07:18] <dmesg> any one give shells?
[07:18] <dxdt> CerebroJD: it can, yes
[07:18] <spikeb> CerebroJD, yes
[07:18] <skollie> Andyho: either a wine config problem or kasamba is not wine-friendly
[07:18] <CerebroJD> by default?
[07:18] <ConfidentiaL> what are the plugins I need to install to be able to play mp3 files and wma files?
[07:18] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Any other harddisk than the external harddisk is ok.
[07:18] <kazim59> there was a really good guide to asking questions in IRC... where's that?
[07:18] <jetscreamer> !info w32codecs

[07:18] <jetscreamer> !ask
[07:18] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:18] <Geminias> a guide for asking questions in a chat room?
[07:18] <Biteyni> alright give me about 10 mintues going to try to go into ubuntu
[07:18] <Geminias> hmmmmmmm
[07:18] <jetscreamer> !smart questions
[07:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smart questions - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:19] <CerebroJD> very good guide :D
[07:19] <Biteyni> brb :)

[07:20] <Andyho> Right now I'm reading something about a dll over ride?
[07:20] <mptech> is there a way to manually adjust the brightness?
[07:20] <Sammyhellsyea> i installed ubuntu and it goes to the boot screen where you have the yellow loading bar and its gets like 3 marks through it and freezes. so i fdisk'd and installed again and its doing the same thing
[07:20] <rafael__> jetscreamer, can u show me ?
[07:20] <\Ben> when i do iwlist scan - it says my wireless interface doesnt support scanning... anyone have any ideas?
[07:20] <Daveyboy> anyone know why 'php -v' shows version 5.2.3 but phpinfo(); shows 5.1.2?
[07:21] <rafael__> jetscreamer, maybe need to edit the gtk ?
[07:21] <geem> maybe u installed it from a bad copy
[07:21] <archoniam> Hiyaz... uh im trying to run Eternal Lands but i don't know how to execute the directions at http://www.eternal-lands.com/ .
[07:21] <CheesyMonkey> Sammyhellsyea, Take off the splash screen would be a good idea to find the problem :)
[07:21] <Sammyhellsyea> i tried two different ones
[07:21] <geem> ahh
[07:21] <willzzz> how do i change the ubuntu screensaver settings manually?
[07:21] <archoniam> How do i do this?
[07:21] <Sammyhellsyea> the live cd and then the text only one
[07:21] <Andyho> thx skollie.. checkin the config now! :)
[07:21] <willzzz> my intel integrated graphics (very new card) crashes whenever there is OpenGL or hardware accel. under linux
[07:21] <willzzz> i need to disable the screensaver
[07:21] <geem> i am having smae problem on  one machien but it wouldn't take xp either
[07:21] <archoniam> willzzz: I would think that there is a config file allowing you too but i don't know
[07:22] <HHP2K> Sammyhellsyea: Is your RAM broken? I had that problem before and it turned out to be bad ram.
[07:22] <rolfen> willzzz: i also have intel integrated on a i965 board... works well for me
[07:22] <geem> i am thinking it's the hdd
[07:22] <NET||abuse> how can i find what process is listening to port 81
[07:22] <Sammyhellsyea> i have two sticks in there...
[07:22] <willzzz> if i run the gnome-screensaver-config applet it crashes trying to load the preview... i need the .conf file's name
[07:22] <Sammyhellsyea> and windows xp worked
[07:22] <HHP2K> Sammyhellsyea: Then, probably not.
[07:22] <archoniam> willzzz: Sorry but i don't know that.
[07:22] <willzzz> rolfen, i have an integrated GM965 laptop board with the Intel 965 X3100 graphics... latest  *-intel drivers installed...
[07:22] <jetscreamer> willzzz: maybe fix the opengl and/or glx... probably glx
[07:23] <CheesyMonkey> Sammyhellsyea, When booting press a button to get into the GRUB menu and take off the splash option on the end of the kernel?
[07:23] <willzzz> when running compiz/beryl it also crashes
[07:23] <jetscreamer> a button being the E key
[07:23] <archoniam> Any other questions on hardware or otherwise beginner questions?
[07:23] <rolfen> willzzz: ah ok, i have a desktop. not the same GPU
[07:23] <archoniam> This being directed to everyone?
[07:23] <CheesyMonkey> jetscreamer, I thought it was any button to open the menu but e to actaully edit the line :P
[07:23] <heirrook> where would i find the make.conf file?  I cannot find it in /etc
[07:23] <Sammyhellsyea> any button?
[07:24] <jetscreamer> Cheese: i think it's E , and c gets you a grubshell.. but maybe they coded it different
[07:24] <CheesyMonkey> heirrook, Ubuntu doesnt have a make.conf as far as i am aware. Confssuing it with gentoo?
[07:24] <kikkomanchow> how do you look at running processes? how do you kill one?
[07:24] <jetscreamer> it is E to edit the line also though
[07:24] <joebob777as7> hey i'm wondering how i can make it that users can not see other user's files by default when i create a new user? can someone help?
[07:24] <rolfen> willzzz: i didnt install no driver though... beryl worked out of the box for me. dont know if i'm using hardware accel
[07:24] <CheesyMonkey> jetscreamer, =D

[07:25] <rafael__> hey
[07:25] <\Ben> anyone able to help with a wireless issue? I have been following 2 long forum posts but still cant get it connected....when i do iwlist scan - it says my wireless interface doesnt support scanning...when i do iwconfig is doent pickup my router. The light is flashing contantly on the usb nic
[07:25] <heirrook> if no make.conf how do i set cflags?
[07:25] <rafael__> how to remove the arrow  on the menu bar ?
[07:25] <spikeb> there's an arrow on the menubar?
[07:25] <mptech> what's the difference between suspend and hibernate?
[07:25] <willzzz> rolfen, out of the box it should be using the *-i810 which is now renamed to *-intel drivers so it should be doing hardware accel (you can find out by running 'glxinfo' and showing Direct Rendering: YES)
[07:25] <HHP2K> mptech: I always wanted to know that. What is the difference?
[07:25] <jetscreamer> right click the menubar
[07:26] <joebob777as7> mptech, suspend sucks hibernate rocks!
[07:26] <willzzz> so the desktop board works but the notebook revision doesn't :(
[07:26] <mptech> joebob777as7, -_-
[07:26] <mptech> :/
[07:26] <jetscreamer> or settings/taskbar or so.. maybe either/or
[07:26] <HHP2K> Good enough for me
[07:26] <HHP2K> mptech: I would imagine suspend simply means sleep.
[07:26] <jetscreamer> hibernate writes your memory out to a file, kind of like a swapfile, and totally powers down
[07:27] <HHP2K> what jetscreamer said.
[07:27] <mptech> jetscreamer, suspend just keeps the computer on in low power mode?
[07:27] <kikkomanchow> Suspend, your computer is still running, poweroff most things.    Hibernate, saves your "state" to a memory file, turns off your computer. When your computer is on, you begin where you left off
[07:27] <mptech> like stopping the HD and the like?
[07:27] <HHP2K> rght.
[07:27] <jetscreamer> yes
[07:28] <kikkomanchow> Hibernate > Suspend.. that is all kthxbye
[07:28] <joebob777as7> mptech, suspend sucks hibernate rocks!
[07:28] <Sammyhellsyea> it said no resume image doing reading files to something normal boot
[07:28] <joebob777as7> lol sorry
[07:28] <HHP2K> Suspend = sleeping computer, hibernate = off computer, both allow you to resume your desktop environment quickly.
[07:28] <joebob777as7> hey i'm wondering how i can make it that users can not see other user's files by default when i create a new user? can someone help?
[07:28] <kikkomanchow> Id like to know is there a reason why anyone would go suspend rather than hibernate?
[07:28] <Sammyhellsyea> and now its running through a screen of number
[07:28] <HHP2K> kikkomanchow: It's faster.
[07:28] <HHP2K> faster to boot back up
[07:29] <kikkomanchow> HHP2K: O ic..
[07:29] <HHP2K> hibernate's advantage is that s uses no power.
[07:29] <\Ben> anyone able to help with a wireless issue? I have been following 2 long forum posts but still cant get it connected....when i do iwlist scan - it says my wireless interface doesnt support scanning...when i do iwconfig is doent pickup my router. The light is flashing contantly on the usb nic
[07:29] <kikkomanchow> i cant suspend my computer in my room.. cuz itd be too noisy with it on at night
[07:29] <HHP2K> kikkomanchow: then hibernate is for you.
[07:29] <rolfen> willzzz: thanks. yup, it says yes
[07:29] <screewedup> I got the drivers from nvidia for my card, now what do i type in terminal to open it?
[07:29] <kikkomanchow> question: how do you look at running processes? how do you kill one?
[07:29] <Sammyhellsyea> is it supposed to be running through all these numbers
[07:29] <archoniam> Um can anyone tell me what to do with these directions (I have the cd part done)? The directions are at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30127/
[07:30] <HHP2K> kikkomanchow: System > Administration > System Monitor
[07:30] <FirefighterBlu3> does the ubuntu networking system understand adding multiple IPs without using the deprecated 20th century interface aliases?

[07:31] <Creeture> Hey all. I have Beryl working on Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty) just fine. It's under Xgl, but hey, it works. I'm trying to get the window manager to behave like metacity does with dual monitors. Any idea how to get the beryl window manager to treat a BigDesktop as 2 screens?
[07:31] <archoniam> Pici: Oki
[07:31] <ubotu> cavg: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[07:31] <cavg> necesito ayuda
[07:31] <kikkomanchow> o.. didnt know theres a system monitor
[07:31] <kikkomanchow> lol thx
[07:31] <CheesyMonkey> Sammyhellsyea, I think it counts in seconds the time it akes to boot, thats what I guessed when i seen them :P
[07:31] <WaxyFresh> hi i know that goobuntu is only supposed to be used inside google,but has it been leaked out to the general public at all?and if so where can i find it?
[07:31] <HHP2K> kikkomanchow: welcome =)
[07:31] <genii> Who was asking about manually modifying their screensaver setup file ?
[07:31] <cavg> help me in program java
[07:31] <Sammyhellsyea> well it was doing it before and i thought it maybe was supposed to so i let it go last night
[07:31] <Sammyhellsyea> and it went for like 16 hours straight
[07:31] <screewedup> help
[07:32] <_mop_> hi...i am having troubles to automount an ntfs usb partition (from what i googled it seems to be a common problem)...i have done an entry in /etc/fstab...mounting manually works  and lshal reports that /mp3 should be the mountpoint...but it simply won't mount automatically once i turn it on and lshal reports is_mounted = false :S anything i am missing here? :|
[07:32] <Sammyhellsyea> so thats when i decided to fdisk
[07:32] <genii> Anyhow, for gnome it should be in /usr/share/xscreensaver/config
[07:32] <aquo> can anybody compare the package version and the version of wpa_supplicant on his feisty system?
[07:32] <Sammyhellsyea> any other ideas?
[07:32] <WaxyFresh> is there any cool eyecandy i can use besides beryl/compiz?i have direct rendering but cant seem to get beryl to work
[07:32] <zorglu_>  q. i would like to reduce the amount of data swapped ? current doing a disk transfert swap all my apps to the point it slow down my typing in a text editor. i heard about swappiness, but what is the meaning of this word ?should i put a high number to reduce swap or a low nunber

[07:33] <joebob777as7> hey i'm wondering how i can make it that users can not see other user's files by default when i create a new user? can someone help?
[07:33] <GamingX> Can u use IRC from terminal mode in Ubuntu?
[07:34] <skollie> joebob777as7: that should be the default...
[07:34] <Biteyni> EightEleven: You there?
[07:34] <kikkomanchow> Can someone explain what relation between X and Gnome and Compiz and Beryl to me?
[07:34] <genii> zorglu_: run the command with nice   you can do man nice to see the syntax
[07:34] <archoniam> Anyone here run the game Eternal Lands?
[07:34] <zorglu_> genii: ??
[07:34] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Yes
[07:34] <Biteyni> Well im in ubuntu
[07:34] <Creeture> kikkomanchow: Sure. Do you have a good stiff drink in hand?
[07:34] <Biteyni> and it loads perfect
[07:34] <HHP2K> Guys, why isn't pkg-config finding gnome, gconf and xdamage? I have them all, I've checked.. but awn svn's installer uses pkg-config and it relays that those packages aren't there.
[07:34] <kikkomanchow> Creeture: Tim Horton's coffee good enuf?
[07:34] <EightEleven> You can read all your files?
[07:34] <zorglu_> genii: well im talking about swap and kernel, no realation with nice and processus priority
[07:34] <genii> zorglu_: You are doing some large file copy and it slows the computer down, yes?
[07:35] <zorglu_> genii: yes
[07:35] <cyzie> anyone got logitech quickcam 5000 046d:08ce working in ubuntu ?
[07:35] <Biteyni> Im using an ubuntu live cd 5.10 which loads live cd perfectly for some reason 7.04 does not
[07:35] <archoniam> Aaaanyone?
[07:35] <Biteyni> but i can just install 5.10 then i can upgrade right?
[07:35] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Ok. No need to install.
[07:35] <genii> zorglu_:  So then run the copy command with nice, tell it to use less resources that way and it will not slow down everything else so much
[07:35] <joebob777as7> skollie, it is not that by default users can browse other users files in their home dir
[07:35] <Sammyhellsyea> ok well im glad everyone helped me to get linux running....proving once again that it sucks
[07:35] <EightEleven> Biteyni: You want to read the files from your external harddrive, right?
[07:35] <zorglu_> genii: ok as i said i was talking about swap here, no processus priority
[07:36] <Andyho> omg.. this is retarded.. I placed the exe in wine, but now it's giving me got bad file info
[07:36] <Biteyni> yup and they show and everything in ubuntu
[07:36] <Biteyni> maybe its just windows that suxs..
[07:36] <lafayette> what is the best way to search from the command line?
[07:36] <heirrook> anyone have any advice for this" checking for gcc... gcc
[07:36] <heirrook> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"
[07:36] <skollie> joebob777as7: user a cannot see files in user b's home dir, unless you have changed the permissions on the file
[07:36] <Creeture> kikkomanchow: I guess it'll have to do. X interfaces with the hardware. It provides lots of functionality to provide graphics support. gnome is a little word to describe a whole lot of stuff that runs once X is running. compiz and beryl are two different 3d managers that control how the windows are displayed.
[07:36] <EightEleven> Biteyni: You should still copy your most important files somewhere safe.
[07:36] <sharky> hi everyone
[07:36] <spikeb> wow
[07:36] <GamingX> As I was asking earlier is it possible to run IRC from the terminal mode?
[07:36] <Sammyhellsyea> i never said windows didnt suck
[07:36] <HHP2K> Does anyone have any experience with awn svn or dpkg-config?
[07:36] <spikeb> im having a brainfart
[07:36] <archoniam> I ask once again. Does anyone play eternal lands? :)
[07:36] <spikeb> GamingX, yes
[07:37] <GamingX> how?
[07:37] <Biteyni> yeah i know i need to go get another harddrive
[07:37] <Sammyhellsyea> but its easier to use
[07:37] <sharky> can anyone tell me why i cant hear sound on vlc media player when i play dvds
[07:37] <lafayette> shockingly i can't find a good article on google about searching in ubuntu (from the command line)
[07:37] <Sammyhellsyea> yfour speakers arent plugged in duh
[07:37] <zorglu_> genii: i want my box to swap much less. aka swap only when there is no more memory
[07:37] <WaxyFresh> is there any good eyecandy besides beryl/compiz?just anything to spice the system up?difrent menu styles,xdesktopwaves,etc etc etc?
[07:38] <GamingX> Is there any guide towards this?
[07:38] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: I have one! ooh ooh!
[07:38] <Creeture> kikkomanchow: Gnome uses a "window manager" called metacity (or others, but metacity by default) to determine how the borders and menu bars look on the windows. beryl/compiz do the same thing only with a lot more prettiness
[07:38] <dxdt> Metisse looks cool and isn't compiz/beryl
[07:38] <joebob777as7> i've created 20 users skollie and they can all see the other's files...
[07:38] <Biteyni> EightEleven: What should i do about making it show in windows?
[07:38] <kikkomanchow> Creeture: ah.. so compiz and beryl are essentially like a fork.. i heard they are merging?
[07:38] <spikeb> kikkomanchow, they did.
[07:38] <archoniam> Well, %*&#. I'll go download the source. XD
[07:38] <dxdt> they were together, then apart, now they are back on.  Much like a bad college romance
[07:38] <WaxyFresh> HHP2K: yes?
[07:38] <skollie> lafayette: do a 'man grep' at the command line
[07:38] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: I just found Avant Window Manager, which is like a dock on your screen, much like mac osx.. andddddandnd you can customize the looks of your taskbars and windows with it.
[07:38] <kikkomanchow> lol wtf.. did they think of a name for it yet?
[07:38] <kikkomanchow> other than "Compiz fusion"?
[07:38] <lafayette> thanks
[07:38] <Creeture> kikkomanchow: compiz was the original, beryl was the fork, and they are in the process of merging again. Lots of harsh words spoken between the two.
[07:38] <EightEleven> Biteyni: The easiest way is to copy all your important files somewhere safe and then reformat the drive.
[07:38] <dxdt> kikkomanchow: something like compfuzion or something
[07:38] <spikeb> compiz fusion IS the name.
[07:38] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: But I'm having a horrible time installing it, and nobody here seems to want to help me with it. :(
[07:38] <skollie> joebob777as7: in eah other's home dirs?
[07:39] <kikkomanchow> o
[07:39] <joebob777as7> skollie, yes
[07:39] <kikkomanchow> i thought compiz fusion was like the latest compiz, and then beryl merge, and they thinking new name..
[07:39] <Biteyni> well if I can get a download manager to work with ubuntu then im good ill stay with ubuntu
[07:39] <kikkomanchow> weirdness
[07:39] <kikkomanchow> personally i like the word beryl much better.. lotsa bling in it
[07:39] <zorglu_> genii: sudo sysctl -w vm.swappiness=5 <- apparently this is around this
[07:39] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: Might not be entirely what you're looking for, but it's pretty, from the screenshots.
[07:39] <WaxyFresh> HHP2K: you have to install that form source
[07:40] <genii> zorglu_: Hmm. How to specify that, I do not know. If I had to try from scratch I would likely boot without a swap enabled, then do perhaps a cronjob to view free resources, when mem drops below certain level, enable swap
[07:40] <skollie> joebob777as7: most unusual. sounds like you have universal read/write permissions in home dirs
[07:40] <WaxyFresh> HHP2K: are you following the howto on the forums?
[07:40] <kikkomanchow> Nauticalus is like your "finder" in mac right?
[07:40] <joebob777as7> yeah... i have no idea... it just shows that way... how do i turn it off for new users? i have to create 300 more skollie
[07:40] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: It's all downloaded and ready to rock, but running ./configure shows me that dpkg-configure can't find gnome-desktop, gconf and a bunch of other ones that I -know- I have. That's where I'm stuck.
[07:40] <kikkomanchow> or windows manager
[07:40] <screewedup> can some one help me with terminal comands in ubuntu?
[07:41] <WaxyFresh> !avant
[07:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avant - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:41] <Creeture> screewedup: What you want to know?
[07:41] <HHP2K> Damn.
[07:41] <EightEleven> Biteyni: I don't want to scare you, but if the filesystem on the drive is broken, then ubuntu can also stop reading the drive if you put new stuff on it.
[07:41] <CheesyMonkey> !register > CheesyMonkey
[07:41] <Biteyni> hmm..
[07:41] <Biteyni> ill try putting new stuff

[07:42] <HHP2K> Maybe I'll try that one.
[07:42] <WaxyFresh> HHP2K: sorry cant help you :(
[07:42] <Creeture> screewedup: What did you do, what were the errors?
[07:42] <joebob777as7> screewedup, it's because you have a 7 series card...
[07:42] <Rageagainstthis> what is the closest program resembling publisher on linux?
[07:42] <HHP2K> WaxyFresh: That's okay, you've been the first one all day to try :) thanks.
[07:43] <Creeture> Rageagainstthis: What's publisher?
[07:43] <kikkomanchow> Microsoft Publisher
[07:43] <Biteyni> its scanning the drive
[07:43] <screewedup> i have a nvidia 8500gt
[07:43] <wbadger> screewedup, did you stop gnome?
[07:43] <EightEleven> Biteyni: So the old stuff is not so important?
[07:43] <wbadger> did you stop gdm*
[07:43] <Biteyni> its very important
[07:43] <WaxyFresh> HHP2K: try the forums if people here are being unhelpfull
[07:43] <Biteyni> im looking at the properties
[07:43] <screewedup> i opened terminal and typed"/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run'"
[07:44] <Biteyni> its scanning the contents
[07:44] <kikkomanchow> Konversation
[07:44] <Biteyni> so far at 130000items
[07:44] <wbadger> screewedup, what error did you get?
[07:44] <Rageagainstthis> Creeture: publisher is a program included within microsoft office.  It allows you to create pamphlets, birthday cards, and others
[07:44] <screewedup> wbadger : looking
[07:45] <celt1c> hi i need help, i am trying to run ubuntu from a live cd and after i hit run ubuntu from the menu it went through a lot of scans and stuff now i am greeted with a menu asking me to run a run a command as administrator or use the sudo command, and i dont know what to do, i jjust want to boot linux up
[07:45] <skollie> joebob777as7: not sure. I run a single user desktop so have not come across the problem, maybe it is the default?
[07:45] <screewedup> wbadger: Permission denied
[07:45] <wbadger> screewedup, you have to run it as root, add "sudo" before your command
[07:45] <wbadger> screewedup, it will ask for your user's password
[07:45] <screewedup> wbadger: ok hang on i will try
[07:46] <JRamsey> what file protection mask is used as default when a directory is created and how can i change the default behavior?
[07:46] <Creeture> Rageagainstthis: google says there are alternatives unless you want to open existing .pub files
[07:46] <gomul> hej, orientuje sie ktos czy jest mozliwosc przy instalacji ubuntu wybrac jaki soft ma byc zainstalowany?
[07:47] <screewedup> wbadger: now it says character coding wrong
[07:47] <mrhyd3> anyone give me a hand at getting Beryl to work?  Ive read many page (howto's) and still cannot see anything working
[07:47] <Biteyni> EightEleven: how do i check what ubuntu sees if its NTFS or FAT?
[07:47] <Rageagainstthis> Creeture: thanks i am looking through the package manager right now to see what is available
[07:47] <archoniam> Uh hi again. I see the error in this but i don't know how to fix it. The error: I checkinstall anything and this error comes up: /var/tmp/NkDSJgqMeUFmLTWOnegSS/installscript.sh: 4: /home/archoniam/mydocs/el_linux_install_140.zip: Permission denied
[07:47] <archoniam> Can anyone tell me what's wrong here?
[07:47] <wbadger> mrhyd3, you will probably have more luck in #beryl
[07:47] <wbadger> screewedup, I never heard that one before..
[07:48] <genii> zorglu_:  Perhaps dphys-swapfile is what you might need
[07:48] <Creeture> archoniam: Probably you need to have root permission. Are you doing sudo checkinstall ....
[07:48] <Geminias> i have not
[07:48] <wbadger> screewedup, most tutorials tell you to stop the graphical server before you install...
[07:48] <HEP85> Rageagainstthis: try "scribus". I don't know it, but it seems to be the kind of app you need
[07:48] <screewedup> wbadger:Could not open the file /home/home/Desktop/NVIDIux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run.
[07:48] <archoniam> Creeture: Did sudo or root.
[07:48] <genii> Darn, they left
[07:48] <wbadger> screewedup, that file path is not right, you have /home twice
[07:48] <WaxyFresh> im trying to get beryl running do i need aiglx or xgl for a ATI radeon xpress 1150?
[07:48] <EightEleven> Biteyni: In 7.04 you could click with right on the drive-icon on your desktop and click properties.
[07:48] <archoniam> Creeture: The problem is that the file it's talking about, the installscript.sh... it's not there.
[07:49] <Cilay_Mecur> Hello all
[07:49] <Biteyni> in 5.10?
[07:49] <archoniam> Creeture: Wait, should i create it again?
[07:49] <\Ben> anyone able to help with a wireless issue? I have been following 2 long forum posts but still cant get it connected....when i do iwlist scan - it says my wireless interface doesnt support scanning...when i do iwconfig is doent pickup my router. The light is flashing contantly on the usb nic
[07:49] <Rageagainstthis> HEP85: Thank you i will check out scribus
[07:49] <EightEleven> Biteyni: If it doesn't work, you could open a terminal and type mount
[07:49] <JRamsey>  what file protection mask is used as default when a directory is created and how can i change the default behavior?
[07:49] <gomul> enyone now how if there is a choos what soft could by installed while ubuntu installation?
[07:49] <Biteyni> well properties loaded and everything
[07:49] <Creeture> archoniam: installscript.sh is a temporary file that is created by checkinstall and then executed. It's saying that it doesn't have permission to read/write .../el_linux_install_14.zip then the installscript.sh disappears.
[07:50] <Biteyni> and its telling me the amount of used space
[07:50] <Biteyni> free space
[07:50] <WaxyFresh> do i need aiglx or xgl for a beryl useing a ATI radeon xpress 1150? or does it even matter?
[07:50] <Biteyni> 442169 items, totalling 106.6 GB
[07:50] <Biteyni> (some contents unreadable)
[07:50] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Is there a tab Drive and a tab Volume?
[07:50] <archoniam> Creeture: Well, i had all the permission on this computer i could get! I even used sudo WHILE BEING ROOT! Still, i keep getting perm denied. You know the problem there?
[07:51] <Biteyni> EightEleven: Nope
[07:51] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Than that must have been added somewhere between 5 and 7. :)
[07:51] <Biteyni> lol
[07:51] <Creeture> archoniam: It depends on whether it's trying to read or write. I can't tell from what you've told me.
[07:51] <C-{pR0F> how do i change the sudo passwd ??????
[07:51] <ditoa> hi all
[07:51] <EightEleven> If you open a terminal and type "mount", you could see the filesystem type
[07:51] <Biteyni> for volume it has the name i did
[07:51] <SurfnKid> can someone help me get a Ricoh SD/MMC reader on my laptop loaded?
[07:52] <SurfnKid> !SD
[07:52] <naufraghi> hello, some hint to debug a PyQt app using Qt debug symbols?
[07:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:52] <SurfnKid> !sdhci
[07:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sdhci - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:52] <archoniam> C:{pROF: It's your password (If you're admin...) that activates sudo.
[07:52] <skollie> !root C-{pR0F
[07:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about root c-{pr0f - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:52] <screewedup> wbadger:sudo/home/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run: No such file or directory
[07:52] <ditoa> anyone got a dell XPS M1330 which they are running ubuntu on?
[07:52] <Creeture> archoniam: The el_linux.zip file - does it exist? What is it? Why is checkinstall trying to touch it?
[07:52] <archoniam> Creeture: It's trying to write.
[07:52] <Seoke> Okay well I upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and now my menu bars arents howing on the top and bottom of the screen any ideas on what to do to fix that?
[07:52] <skollie> !root | C-{pR0F
[07:52] <ubotu> C-{pR0F: 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
[07:52] <younghacker> i need to know some information about postgreSQL
[07:52] <younghacker> can anyone help me out
[07:52] <Biteyni> EightEleven: It's starting terminal
[07:52] <genii> C-{pR0F: Since the password for sudo is the password an admin user has normally, just do: passwd
[07:53] <archoniam> Creeture: Yes, it exists. It's my eternal lands game ive been trying to install for about ten minutes.
[07:53] <wbadger> screewedup, make sure you get the path right. try this command - copy and paste it: ~/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[07:53] <archoniam> XD

[07:53] <tamaradiezma> hola
[07:53] <Seoke> Okay well I upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and now my menu bars arents howing on the top and bottom of the screen any ideas on what to do to fix that? Now i only have access to firefox and terminal since they were on my desktop
[07:53] <Creeture> archoniam: Try to install it without using checkinstall first. If it works, then troubleshoot checkinstall.
[07:53] <wbadger> screewedup, sudo ~/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[07:53] <alecw1> I'm having a weird problem... if I "copy" text from a program, and then close it, I can't paste it anywhere. Is anyone else having this problem?
[07:54] <WaxyFresh> do i need aiglx or xgl for a ATI radeon xpress 1150 for running beryl?
[07:54] <kismet> alecw1, Gnome isn't like windows
[07:54] <Pici> WaxyFresh: Most likely xgl
[07:54] <younghacker> cool, ok i have a XML document that i want imported into a database that was created already to hold the information in the document ,, it should be able to populate the tables of the database, are there any automated ways to import this? is pgadmin capable?
[07:54] <Seoke> Okay well I upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and now my menu bars arents howing on the top and bottom of the screen any ideas on what to do to fix that? Now i only have access to firefox and terminal since they were on my desktop
[07:54] <Creeture> alecw1: When you get copy/paste in any X application to work predictably, let me know.
[07:54] <kismet> alecw1, if the applications is closed the text you have copied gets removed from buffer
[07:54] <alecw1> is there a fix?
[07:54] <kismet> alecw1, there is an application though
[07:54] <kismet> yes just a moment
[07:55] <screewedup> wbadger:sudo: /home/home/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run: command not found THIS IS FUN

[07:56] <Pici> younghacker: Thats a bit beyond my knowledge sorry.
[07:56] <screewedup> i wonder if thats the problem
[07:56] <wbadger> screewedup, ok then lets try this: add "sh" between "sudo" and the path
[07:56] <Seoke> ksimet, No to 6.10 from 6.06 so that I can continue my upgrade to 7.10

[07:58] <Biteyni> Couldn't change the permissions of "Local Disk 2" because it is on a read-only disk
[07:58] <jrattner1> Question: What package installs KDE?
[07:59] <Seoke> kismet, Theres noway to reload the user interface such as the menus and stuff?
[07:59] <EightEleven> Bitteny: /dev/sda1 on /media/Local Disk 2 type ntfs
[07:59] <kismet> Seoke, sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
[07:59] <Biteyni> EightEleven: what does it mean?
[07:59] <ali1234> jrattner1: kubuntu-desktop is probably what you want
[07:59] <toryl__> \Ben:  that's a huge question, as you've probably found out.  Many people have had success removing the network manager, some with wifi-radar, some with doing everything from the cli.  Try being more specific and maybe someone will have some advice.
[07:59] <archoniam> Biteyni: Uh, try doing it manually in terminal, whatever it is, just use sudo before your command.
[07:59] <Cyber_Stalker> will i be able to do this on my ubuntu?
[07:59] <preaction_> !ntfs-3g | Biteyni

[07:59] <screewedup> wbadger: ok that opened it but now it says x controll not configured:(
[07:59] <downhillgames> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkeC7HpsHxo
[07:59] <EightEleven> Biteyni: You asked if the drive was fat or ntfs, this line tells you. :)
[07:59] <Cyber_Stalker> will i be able to do this when i install ubuntu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ
[08:00] <downhillgames> el oh el
[08:00] <Seoke> kismet, well that opened a file browser and reloaded my desktop... I think I'll just run the update manager and hope it gets fixed in the update
[08:00] <archoniam> Creeture: Took me a good 6 minutes to download. If you find a good .deb for it tell me!!
[08:00] <CppIsWeird> whats an rpm?
[08:00] <downhillgames> Cyber_Stalker, waaay waaay more. compiz fusion is out now
[08:00] <preaction_> !offtopic | downhillgames
[08:00] <ubotu> downhillgames: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:00] <kismet> Seoke, good luck
[08:00] <Seoke> kismet, if not i'm going ot have to downgrade to 6.06 again
[08:00] <downhillgames> preaction_, it'll be ok
[08:00] <Biteyni> EightEleven: Yeah I know so that means the External Hard Drive is fine?
[08:00] <Seoke> kismet, Thanks
[08:00] <kikkomanchow> !rpm
[08:00] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[08:00] <EightEleven> Biteyni: And if it is a ntfs disk, but Windows cannot read it, then something is wrong. :)
[08:00] <Biteyni> It's just shitty windows?
[08:00] <SurfnKid> how do I delete a string from firefox's config page?
[08:00] <SurfnKid> there's no way to delete them!
[08:00] <Cyber_Stalker> downhillgames is it like CPU and gfx intensive?
[08:01] <Biteyni> its just windows im guessing
[08:01] <yeniklasor> I'm searching a rss feed application, that must work like this > I will type some keywords, when feed arrived, if feed's topic has my keywords, warn me, if don't have my keywords then don't warn me. Do you know an application like this?
[08:01] <goofy> anyone know how to get kismet to work with an atheros card
[08:01] <Cyber_Stalker> the reason im dual booting is cause i saw that vid of beryl and fell inlove
[08:01] <Pici> SurfnKid: double click on the value field to edit
[08:01] <downhillgames> Cyber_Stalker, my pentium 3 with 128MB system ram and a geforce 2 32MB AG4x can run it. i'm sure you'll be ok
[08:01] <Biteyni> ntfs-3g is what i need on ubuntu to write to it
[08:01] <ali1234> when i try to install sun java wireless toolkit 2.5.1 for linux, it says "no suitable java interpreter was found." does anybody know what i need to do?
[08:01] <\Ben> yeah toryl__ i understand its huge, thanks for the pointers. ill try be abit more specific.. :)
[08:01] <kikkomanchow> beryl.. like bait

[08:01] <downhillgames> Cyber_Stalker, ^_~ i run Fedora
[08:01] <Cyber_Stalker> im so excited lo l
[08:01] <archoniam> Creeture: Uhh, wait i need to reg my nick before it.
[08:01] <kismet> beryl <3
[08:01] <Cyber_Stalker> oh
[08:01] <Cyber_Stalker> ok
[08:01] <EightEleven> Biteyni: I still think something is wrong with the drive.
[08:01] <SurfnKid> Pici, yeah, but the main string, the entire string or boolean
[08:01] <Cyber_Stalker> fedora less cpu intensive then ubuntu>
[08:01] <tonsofpcs> anyone know how to get mail working between two machines on my network?  Local [Ubuntu Feisty Fawn]  won't send to my server because the domain isn't found, server [debian sarge]  won't send to local because "mailing to remote domains not supported".  Any ideas?
[08:02] <SurfnKid> that i cant
[08:02] <EightEleven> Biteyni: Windows should just be able to read it.
[08:02] <kismet> Cyber_Stalker, for more info regarding effects, check out #Ubuntu-effects.
[08:02] <downhillgames> Cyber_Stalker, nah
[08:02] <Creeture> archoniam: Nevermind. I'll do it open forum.
[08:02] <screewedup> You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before
[08:02] <screewedup>          installing.  For further details, please see the section INSTALLING
[08:02] <screewedup>          THE NVIDIA DRIVER in the README available on the Linux driver
[08:02] <screewedup>          download page at www.nvidia.com.
[08:02] <Biteyni> well it did but when windows didn't see the drive after the computer was taken off of hybernation it made error in windows
[08:02] <JRamsey> where's the user specific loging script and what is its name?
[08:02] <Biteyni> because drive was fine when i turned it off :
[08:02] <dewey> !ask How does one install software packages form within Ubuntu?  Is there a way I can look through a list of available software and choose which I would like to install?  GParted, etc.
[08:02] <Pici> !paste > screewedup (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[08:02] <kismet> !paste | screewedup
[08:02] <nathan_> Is there any way to make your mouse cursor disappear (on purpose I mean)?
[08:02] <ubotu> screewedup: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:02] <Falstius> tonsofpcs: you probably need to configure postfix, that's a book in itself.
[08:02] <primski> tonsofpcs....hm, perhaps you need a fake dns server and give each machine a FQDN?
[08:03] <tonsofpcs> primski: shouldn't hosts cover that?
[08:03] <kismet> dewey, yes syanptic
[08:03] <primski> hm, proly should yea
[08:03] <primski> what mail server r u using ?
[08:03] <dewey> kismet, how do I use syanptic?
[08:03] <kismet> !synaptic | dewey
[08:03] <ubotu> dewey: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:03] <ali1234> how can i disable smooth scrolling in gaim conversation windows?
[08:03] <younghacker> i want to add yakuake to the start up programs and i have it there via sessions but it still does not start
[08:03] <kikkomanchow> dewey: System > Admin > Synaptic Package Manager
[08:03] <tonsofpcs> primski: on ubuntu, postfix, not sure about the server
[08:03] <dewey> kikkomanchow - Thanks a lot.
[08:04] <dewey> kismet - Thank you too!
[08:04] <JRamsey> !umask | JRamsey
[08:04] <kismet> np :)
[08:04] <miramana> how to disable remote logins in ubuntu?
[08:04] <kikkomanchow> you turn off the computer
[08:04] <kikkomanchow> jk, iunno
[08:04] <ali1234> oh nvm, found it
[08:04] <kismet> miramana, prefrences -> remote desktop
[08:04] <tonsofpcs> i'm installing postfix on the server [deb]  now
[08:04] <primski> tonsofpcs, aham... other than try and help u find some tutorial, i dunno, you prolly did all that allreay ?
[08:04] <DimitrisC> How can I open port 6891 in amsn for my webcam? It says I am behind a firewall or router.
[08:04] <primski> you only need postfix on sending machine i guess
[08:04] <OldPink> Hi all
[08:05] <kismet> DimitrisC, have you installed any firewall on your installation?
[08:05] <miramana> kismet, thanks
[08:05] <kismet> np
[08:05] <EightEleven> Biteyni: I still think you should make a backup.
[08:05] <nathan_> Is there a way to hide your mouse cursor when zooming in with Beryl?
[08:05] <kismet> nathan_, try asking in #Ubuntu-effects
[08:05] <DimitrisC> kismet: I don't think so I just used the default settings in feisty installation. I have a wireless router if that's what causing the problem.
[08:06] <primski> tonsofpcs, integrating whole mail functionality, is probably too much work for this, you would need a fully functional mail server with mta and mbox, and have a client receive mail thru pop or imap
[08:06] <dewey> Is there a way to download the fedora core 7 theme and use it with ubuntu?
[08:06] <kismet> DimitrisC, if you haven't installed a firewall then you probably just need to forward / open the port on your router
[08:06] <nathan_> kismet, thx
[08:06] <primski> just sending notes between two comps should be done with less compications imho
[08:06] <kismet> dewey, gnome-look.org
[08:06] <OldPink> Just bought a laptop with an ATI Mobility M graphics card. Or something similar. Will it be supported/offered by default? As in the restricted drivers manager?
[08:06] <tonsofpcs> primski: I don't need netmail, just mail between the two
[08:06] <downhillgames> ali1234, it's in the first page of preferences towards the bottom... (smooth scrolling)
[08:06] <Biteyni> EightEleven: I know but the only way to make back up of 130 Gig's of data is to get another HD
[08:07] <Biteyni> i will make backup though
[08:07] <ali1234> downhillgames: yeah i found it, thanks though
[08:07] <downhillgames> ali1234, np
[08:07] <primski> tonsofpcs, how would you be sending mail? mail client, a script, maybe php ?
[08:07] <DimitrisC> kismet: Thanks! I just have to do that through the routers setup right? Do I have to do anything else in linux?
[08:07] <EightEleven> Is all of the 130 Gig really important?
[08:07] <EightEleven> Or is some data more important than other data? :)
[08:07] <Falstius> tonsofpcs: I set up a gmail account for my servers to email errors to.  Safer than running my own mail servers.
[08:07] <fevel> do usb printers work on xp installed on vmware server in ubuntu 7.04
[08:07] <kismet> DimitrisC, no nothing at all
[08:07] <YazzY> hi guys
[08:08] <DimitrisC> kismet: thanks again
[08:08] <kismet> np
[08:08] <ali1234> fevel: they should. vmware has USB passthrough so anything with XP drivers should work
[08:08] <YazzY> how do i enable certain modules at boot ? And how are they disabled?
[08:08] <screewedup> wbadger: thanks for the help ok
[08:08] <Pici> !blacklist > YazzY
[08:08] <wbadger> screewedup, np, sorry I couldn't do more for ya
[08:08] <younghacker> I've had issues with USB devices in VM's period, regardless of host OS... Maybe it's my version of VM though i have workstation 5
[08:09] <younghacker> won't even recognize USB floppy
[08:09] <primski> Yazzy, /etc/models
[08:09] <primski> erm i mean modules
[08:09] <primski> :P
[08:09] <screewedup> wbadger:at least i gotit to open, with your help. now i just need to figure out how to configure x
[08:09] <younghacker> cig break ,,,brb
[08:09] <fevel> ali1234: are you sure vmware-server has that 2
[08:09] <fevel> ??
[08:09] <wbadger> screewedup, I don't understand what needs to be configures

[08:10] <younghacker> www.vmware.com [08:10] <Seoke> Can someone please tell me how to access the accessibility panel through a terminal? I dont have menus and I need to access it
[08:10] <primski> falstius, only the ones i dont want others to see :P
[08:11] <YazzY> Pici, primski: thanks
[08:11] <Seoke> Can someone please tell me how to access the accessibility panel through a terminal? I dont have menus and I need to access it
[08:11] <screewedup> wbadger: says i am running an x server? i don't know what that is lol
[08:11] <rafaelsc1> Seoke, wait
[08:12] <tonsofpcs> primski: simple mail from one system to the other.  nothing fancy, just a way to send quick messages to myself from throughout the house
[08:12] <wbadger> screewedup, oh well that's no problem. the X server is the graphical interface your using.
[08:12] <primski> tonsofpcs, hm, i dont know, how that could be achieved, have u considered instant messaging server, like jabber ?
[08:12] <primski> tahts pretty cool for that
[08:12] <screewedup> hmm
[08:13] <YazzY> Pici: i think nvidia driver should be loaded somewhere by default but it is not, i need to insmod it manually
[08:13] <Falstius> tonsofpcs: people used to use something called talk or xtalk for that.
[08:13] <screewedup> its getting late and i have to go to work in a few.soon i will get this up and running
[08:13] <MattJ> screewedup, jabberd2 is good (and the easiest server I think)
[08:13] <MattJ> Sorry
[08:13] <YazzY> Pici: any idea where the standard modules are listed? those initialized during installation
[08:14] <wbadger> screewedup, what you have to do is press ctrl+alt+f2, that will get you to a terminal. then you close gdm (graphical interface) with the command: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[08:14] <screewedup> and i will actualy be able to use ubuntu
[08:14] <MattJ> tonsofpcs, jabberd2 is good (and the easiest server I think)
[08:14] <Seoke> Can someone please tell me how to access the accessibility panel through a terminal? I dont have menus and I need to access it
[08:14] <rafaelsc1> Seoke, gconf-editor
[08:14] <wbadger> screewedup, then you will be able to run the file . once your done installing reboot your computer (the command is "reboot")
[08:14] <Seoke> rafaelsc1, K thanks
[08:15] <MattJ> Seoke, gnome-accessibility-keyboard-properties ?
[08:15] <rafaelsc1> Seoke, I don't remenmber, cheking
[08:15] <screewedup> lol says no such file or directory
[08:15] <dweber1234> hello, I am trying to install ubuntu server on a system with a via raid controller. Via provides a driver for 7.04 but it is a floppy image and not a cd image. Can anyone help?
[08:16] <Seoke> MattJ, Nope I need to get to the one that lets me turn off the onscreen keyboard automatically starting up I think its messing up my ubuntu because its giving an error then ubuntu stops working
[08:18] <blubloblu1> i have a weird networking issue. My laptop can suddenly lose it's connection to the router (whilst still saying it's connected). I did some checking with wireshark and I see loads of ARN who-has request from my laptop to the router with my router never replying, is this the cause of my problem?
[08:18] <wbadger> screewedup, again, remember you need the full path, and you need sudo at the beginnning, and you need the command "sh". so "sudo sh /home/home/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run"
[08:18] <Falstius> dweber1234: you can mount the image without writing it to disk.
[08:19] <dweber1234> falstius, so I can mount the floppy img from the live CD?
[08:19] <Scunizi> dweber1234, have you checked their site to see if it's download-able?
[08:19] <tim_abell> is anyone else having a problem with rythmbox cutting podcasts short?
[08:19] <rgl> the clamav-daemon from dapper-backport no longer works due to latests virus definition file change.  any ideia how to make it work again?
[08:19] <dweber1234> the only thing I could find on their site was a floppy image and a patch file
[08:20] <Falstius> dweber1234: yep.  Copy the image to the machine (or put it on a usb key), then switch to a terminal (alt-f[2-6] ), and sudo mount -o loop floopy.img /media/floopy
[08:20] <Falstius> you might have to create /media/floppy
[08:20] <\Ben> toryl__, sorry to single you out but you answered earlier :P i have removed network manager and put on wifi radar. but when wifi radar scans it says the same thing as if i was doing iwlist scan. it says "rausb0 - interface doesnt support scanning.
[08:20] <Andyho> every exe I try to run in wine is coming back with could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\prog.exe": Module not found
[08:20] <dweber1234> and then I can insmod it?
[08:20] <Falstius> dweber1234: if that's what it takes, yes
[08:20] <Andyho> tried different settings in winecfg, but still not luck
[08:20] <dweber1234> k, I'll give that a try, Thanks!
[08:21] <Andyho> 3 different progs and all the same msg
[08:21] <Falstius> dweber1234: that would work for a CD image too, or a hard drive image.
[08:21] <\Ben> am i just out of luck in that my usb nic cant scan? or should it be able to... :s iam using the same one as alot of people on the forum
[08:22] <dweber1234> Falstius: good to know
[08:22] <CheesyMonkey> Andyho, #winehq =)
[08:22] <Andyho> yeah cheesy currently in there :) getting better help in here tho LOL

[08:23] <`Matir> Seoke, what's the problem?
[08:23] <dissection> Hello, I just installed dvd::rip but when I went into preferences, it says xine not found. Exactly what do I need to install? The xine player? I'm confused.
[08:23] <yeniklasor> How can I install BlogBridge ?
[08:23] <HEP85> Seoke: it is a web browser for terminal
[08:24] <rafaelsc1> Seoke, Use links, a browser
[08:24] <Seoke> 'Matir, I upgraded from 6.06 to 6.10 and now the menu bars for ubuntu are gone I have to access everything through terminals
[08:24] <Seoke> Hep85, thanks
[08:24] <Seoke> rafaelsc1, Alright
[08:24] <dxdt> Seoke: can't you just right click on the desktop or something and add some?
[08:25] <Seoke> dxdt, No the menu bars are completely gone.. my screensaver doesnt even work now
[08:25] <dissection> Anyone?
[08:25] <yan_larra_> I try to install oracle forms 6i, but I have a problem, I need libX11.a
[08:25] <dissection> !xine
[08:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <dxdt> Seoke: zoiks!  You could just try to do sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop and see if that metapackage will properly put things in place
[08:26] <Falstius> Seoke: did you look in ~/.config/autostart?
[08:26] <Seoke> dxdt, I'll try now
[08:26] <Seoke> Falstius, What do you mean?
[08:26] <Falstius> Seoke: when a program is started automatically by gnome, it is generally because there is a link to it in that directory.
[08:27] <Seoke> Falstius, Alright I'll check thanks mate
[08:27] <Seoke> dxdt, Didnt work
[08:28] <dissection> !dvd::rip

[08:28] <Seoke> HOpefully the update to 7.04 will fix it -_-
[08:29] <`Matir> Am I crazy for trying to find a sub-$1000 (USD) laptop with dual core (prefer 2GHz+), 2GB RAM, ipw3945 or atheros wifi, bluetooth, and 14-15" widescreen?
[08:29] <yan_larra_> Hi, please help me
[08:30] <Seoke> 'Matir, Have you tried looking at Craigslist... You'd be surprised the deals you find there on laptops =P
[08:30] <Falstius> `Matir: I've seen stuff like that on craigslist.  Just accept this $4000 cashiers check and send back the extra $3300.
[08:30] <SlimeyPete> probably not too crazy. You can get a Tosh Satelite with c2d and 1gb RAM and atheros for about 400 quid here in the UK
[08:30] <dxdt> Seoke: hmmmmmmmm.  what happens if you create a new user and log in as that user, is everything still messed up for the new user?
[08:31] <Seoke> dxdt, not about to logout I'm down to 11 minutes on the update to 7.04 xD
[08:31] <`Matir> SlimeyPete, I just wish Toshiba's site was reasonably navigable.
[08:31] <SlimeyPete> heh
[08:32] <Zednom> Does anyone know how to get a microphone on a headset working?  I have sound, but can't record in audacity when I select my mic
[08:32] <dissection> How do I install rar-2.80?
[08:32] <nephish> anyone here using 64bit AMD ?
[08:32] <JasonF> Hi all, I'm having issues updating a Breezy box. I keep getting 404s on the sources.list.
[08:32] <yan_larra_> I cant find libx11.a, what can I do?
[08:33] <`Matir> my current notebook is a P4 @ 2.4G, 512 MB RAM, and bcm43xx wifi... no BT
[08:33] <SlimeyPete> nephish: I am using amd64 on my desktop
[08:33] <Scunizi> Zednom, if it doesn't give you an error it might be a couple of things. Make sure the mic is "active" in the sound settings and you may also need to activate the 20db boost for the mic.
[08:33] <Falstius> Zednom: the usual suspect is forgetting to turn up the line-in or microphone volume in the volume manager.
[08:33] <Seoke> yan_larra_, everything but find libxll.a =P
[08:33] <nephish> are you using the x86 or 64 bit ubuntu?
[08:33] <SlimeyPete> nephish: 64-bit
[08:34] <SlimeyPete> though I wish I were using 32-bit
[08:34] <nephish> how is that working out ? i have one from newegg, most stuff in the forums is kinda old.
[08:34] <starscream> hmmm, this is a real stupid question, but how do i get a hdd partioned in ubuntu (im a prior windows user)
[08:34] <Seoke> So do you guys recommend upgrading to 7.10?
[08:34] <dxdt> yeah
[08:34] <dxdt> pretty much
[08:34] <nephish> SlimeyPete_: on the way from newegg i mean
[08:34] <SlimeyPete> nephish: it works OK but software support isn't brilliant
[08:34] <SlimeyPete> I'd stick with 32-bit for now if I were you
[08:35] <Pici> Seoke: No.
[08:35] <SlimeyPete> there's no noticeable speed difference on my laptop, though that's an Intel rather than AMD
[08:35] <nephish> Is it just flash and Java that are not, or is there other stuff too?
[08:35] <sauvin> What's the package manager for ubuntu, and what's the package retriever?
[08:35] <SlimeyPete> nephish: flash and java are the only big problems
[08:35] <nephish> missing i mean
[08:35] <nephish> ok
[08:35] <Pici> sauvin: dpkg and apt-get
[08:35] <nephish> yeah, gotta have those
[08:35] <sauvin> How do they compare to rpm and yum?
[08:35] <shack> Could someone take alook at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3029218&posted=1#post3029218  | and help me with it?

[08:35] <dweber1234> Falstius: if you are still on, I am getting an error trying to mount the image (ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Invalid argument). Does that mean there is something wrong with the image or am I doing something wrong?

[08:37] <Falstius> starscream: gparted is an easy way to do it
[08:37] <Dorphalsig> I'm trying to setup a DHCP server
[08:37] <MajorPayne> !hi
[08:37] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:37] <Ace2016> can someone tell me what the fastest possible way to do a raid setup with 4 sata2 disks is?
[08:37] <starscream> gparted says filesystem unknown and it wont allow me to del the existing partition
[08:37] <sauvin> Concern: security.
[08:37] <shack> Dorphalsig: So how is it going? With your DHCP server?
[08:38] <starscream> everything down to unmount is ghosted. and unmount doesnt work either
[08:38] <Ace2016> i want the fastest possible hard drive reads and writes
[08:38] <Dorphalsig> however... when I try  to get it running... I get this error
[08:38] <Dorphalsig> subnet 192.168.99.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

[08:38] <Falstius> dweber1234: if you type in the terminal: "mount | grep loop" does that show anything?
[08:38] <Dorphalsig> but I DO have a subnet statement
[08:39] <sauvin> Pici: I wasn't concerned about mounting or unmounting anything.

[08:39] <Falstius> dweber1234: can you post a link to the img?
[08:40] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I've installed a command line system. Now what is the package i need to install to get a gnome desktop?
[08:40] <dweber1234> falstius: http://www.viaarena.com/Driver/via_ubuntu7.04(x86&x86_64)_sata&ahci_patch_kernel_2-6-x_v1.30_appnote_ver0.8.tar.gz
[08:40] <jrib> LiNuX_Fr3aK: ubuntu-desktop
[08:40] <genii> LiNuX_Fr3aK: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:40] <dxdt> LiNuX_Fr3aK: well, you could just do the package ubuntu-desktop, but I am not sure at that point why you wouldn't have just installed the desktop version of ubuntu
[08:40] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> will this get me all i need. I dont want any additional appz
[08:41] <kramer3d> hey guys im on a wired network, i just installed ubuntu on a laptop and the builtin wireless does not work, can someone help?
[08:41] <shack> Dorphalsig: Try # cat /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd
[08:41] <shack> DHCPDARGS=eth1
[08:41] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I dont want any crap on there. Just ubuntu and gnome to start with
[08:41] <dxdt> LiNuX_Fr3aK: you might just want to go with gnome and gdm and stuff in that case and configure it manually
[08:41] <shack> sorry too much paste
[08:41] <jrib> LiNuX_Fr3aK: ubuntu-desktop gets you the same thing you get if you install ubuntu
[08:41] <dxdt> kramer3d: sudo iwconfig  what is the output?
[08:41] <Falstius> dweber1234: you unpacked the tar.gz file first and got ubuntu7.04_DD.img right?
[08:41] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I just want gnome.
[08:42] <dweber1234> falstius: right
[08:42] <sauvin> Does the ubuntu installer allow you to specify kde instead of gnome?
[08:42] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> and gdm
[08:42] <genii> line72:  ubuntu-desktop will install the standard set of ubuntu gnome apps. so if you want a more minimal thing, you may not want that
[08:42] <jrib> sauvin: you can install kubuntu to get kde by default
[08:42] <Falstius> dweber1234: worked fine for me.
[08:42] <_tuzhila> and how i can get kde?
[08:42] <Dorphalsig> shack ... but I have no eth1
[08:43] <sauvin> jrib, I was hoping to do it from a DVD that came with a magazine.
[08:43] <kramer3d> dxdt: lo no wireless extensions, eth0 no wireless extensions, eth1 ESSID"" Nickname "Broadcom 4318"
[08:43] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> I just want gnome base and restricted drivers for my wifi atheros chipset
[08:43] <dweber1234> falstius: k, let me try again
[08:43] <jrib> sauvin: well after you install ubuntu, you can install the "kubuntu-desktop" package and get kde as well
[08:43] <shack> Dorphalsig: http://www.google.fi/search?hl=fi&q=No+subnet+declaration+for+eth0&btnG=Hae&meta= <-does this help?
[08:43] <kramer3d> dxdt: i think eth1 is wired conncection
[08:43] <sauvin> jrib: ah. Good enough.
[08:43] <RoC_MasterMind> How do I remove my Flash plugin for Firefox?  I want to remove it so I can easily install a new version by just going to any flash page and have Firefox pop up the install bar.
[08:43] <kramer3d> not sure :(
[08:44] <genii> gnome-common and gnome-desktop-data may be all you need
[08:44] <Dorphalsig> already checked that :(
[08:44] <Dorphalsig> thnx
[08:44] <kramer3d> dxdt: you there?
[08:44] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> This is why i like gentoo boys. Just install the stuff you need.
[08:44] <nephish> RoC_MasterMind: how did you install flash?
[08:44] <`Matir> RoC_MasterMind, you could probably remove the libflashplayer.so file
[08:44] <dxdt> kramer3d: yeah.  Follow this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[08:44] <j85wilson> Ok, so I just installed a program to my home area (./configure --prefix=/home/jsw; make; make install)
[08:44] <kramer3d> hmkk
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> nephish, that file isn't in my ~/.mozilla direcotyr,
[08:45] <j85wilson> now, I have $which chicken-setup  gives /home/jsw/bin/chicken-setup
[08:45] <j85wilson> but
[08:45] <nephish> no, i mean did you let firefox install it ? or did you use apt universe?
[08:45] <rafaelscj> Do AIGLX come with ubuntu 7.04?
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> I have no idea how it was installed.
[08:45] <j85wilson> $chicken-setup  gives bash: /usr/bin/chicken-setup: no such file or directory.
[08:45] <j85wilson> what gives?
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> I see: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[08:46] <nephish> then remove it with apt-get remove
[08:46] <shack> Dorphalsig: What do you have in your /etc/dhcpd.conf
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> What package is it?
[08:46] <nephish> try that anyway
[08:46] <shafin> #ubuntu
[08:46] <nephish> apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree
[08:46] <shack> Dorphalsig: use this  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:47] <genii> LiNuX_Fr3aK: To find installation candidates just do: apt-cache search gnome|more     this will list all the gnome stuff there are packages for in your system, including the common stuff like gnome-common  etc. For restricted drivers it's a separate package corresponding with what kernel you run.
[08:47] <Elfboy> Greetings you all again a serious note ,ubuntu and I want to run beryl
[08:47] <Max00> does ubuntu support raid?
[08:47] <shack> brb have to make one change to my irssi settings ->
[08:47] <CheesyMonkey> Elfboy, #ubuntu-effects is the answer :O)
[08:47] <RoC_MasterMind> nephish, I don't have any package with "flash" in the name, nor that package.
[08:47] <kramer3d> dxdt: do you reccomend ndiswrapper or native drivers??
[08:48] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, of course.
[08:48] <j85wilson> Why does bash not find a program which is in my $PATH?
[08:48] <Elfboy> I thought that was just for 3d resolution
[08:48] <Elfboy> Because I want the cube
[08:48] <CheesyMonkey> !beryl | Elfboy
[08:48] <ubotu> Elfboy: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:48] <shack> <- done
[08:49] <Max00> thanks RoC_MasterMind just wanted to make sure before i bought some new drives
[08:49] <Elfboy> CPU Info: (1 CPU - AMD Sempron 3000+ (Barton), 2.00 GHz, 512KB (2% Load))
[08:49] <Max00> does it support encyped file systems as well?
[08:49] <jrib> j85wilson: try 'hash -r'?
[08:49] <Elfboy> Video card: (nVidia GeForce FX 5500)  Sound card: (Realtek AC97 Audio)
[08:49] <kramer3d> anyone here use ndiswrapper? is it good?
[08:49] <Elfboy> do you think my video cards and CPU can handle running the three the acceleration
[08:49] <j85wilson> jrib: yes that works.  Thank you.  Why does it work?
[08:49] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, RAID is a install option right on the alternate CD...because you'll have to format whatever devices you want to make into the RAID...but you can always use md at any time.
[08:49] <CheesyMonkey> Elfboy, Yes
[08:50] <jrib> j85wilson: bash remembers stuff, so you have to tell it to forget what it thinks it knows and look again
[08:50] <Elfboy> and now I have to dual boot Windows XP with ubuntu
[08:50] <j85wilson> ic
[08:50] <j85wilson> mkay
[08:50] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, Linux does support that, but I don't think Ubuntu makes any effort to help you with that.
[08:50] <Elfboy> I shall try
[08:50] <jrib> j85wilson: type: help hash
[08:50] <j85wilson> jrib: thanks.  man hash was something else
[08:50] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, I noticed Debian's 4.0 release has a LVM+Encrypted partitioning method during install.
[08:51] <toryl__> \Ben:  1. what card are you using, and  2. can you connect to the AP when you specify the values (i.e. not scanning)?
[08:51] <Elfboy> Not exactly 100% sure how to do this to dual boot using a separate hard drive to hold the linux portion
[08:51] <RoC_MasterMind> !dualboot > Elfboy
[08:51] <Max00> thanks RoC_MasterMind ill check debian
[08:52] <Max00> its pay day on friday so was going to treat my self to 2x500gig sata drives in raid 1
[08:52] <NixMan> is there a way i can, completely from a .sh file, create a new file, and determine what goes in that file? I'm working on a script, and need to know how to do this.
[08:53] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, not half bad...but don't forget RAID is not a backup...RAID won't help you with filesystem problems, your own mistakes, or malicious code.
[08:53] <genii> NixMan: Yes, but better to ask in #bash
[08:53] <sauvin> HixMan, there are too many ways to do what you're asking. What are you trying to do?
[08:53] <Jaeneva> From what I understand, I have to create separate users for my ubuntu system, and samba, is there a way to make samba just use my ubuntu users?
[08:53] <NixMan> genii: ok, will do, what is it that i need to ask for, is there a name?
[08:53] <Max00> yeah thats true, i was thinkin of maybe having a os partion and a data partiton
[08:54] <Elfboy> have one more thing to ask is there a voice recognition software that will work with linux
[08:54] <sauvin> HixMan, without knowing what you're trying to do, that question has no meaningful answer.
[08:54] <genii> NixMan: Perhaps how to create and add to files from a scipt
[08:54] <genii> *script
[08:54] <Littlegator> I was trying to install Ubuntu on my 250GB hdd, and it failed making a partition... now when I look at the table it says that the entire disk is unused.. is all of the data that was on it deleted and can it be recovered?
[08:54] <RoC_MasterMind> How do I remove my Flash plugin for Firefox?   I don't have any packaged with "flash" in the name, nor is there a "flashplugin.so" thing in my ~/.mozilla.
[08:54] <Max00> and use my old 80gig drive for back up
[08:54] <NixMan> genii: ok, thanks
[08:54] <Pici> !flash | RoC_MasterMind
[08:54] <ubotu> RoC_MasterMind: 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
[08:54] <Elfboy> Coffee !
[08:55] <genii> AFK, work
[08:55] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: why remove it?
[08:55] <Jaeneva> Anyone?
[08:55] <Elfboy> all the one thing about windows I will miss is that it has a nice free voice recognition software that I like work in use all the time so I would like to know is there one I can get for linux
[08:55] <ReSpEcT> ph boy
[08:55] <jrib> !samba > Jaeneva (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:55] <RoC_MasterMind> jrib, security vulnerability.
[08:55] <RoC_MasterMind> jrib, have to upgrade it...and no way to do that without removing it first.
[08:55] <ompaul> Littlegator, you appear to have deleted everything there, the word backup is now said, and I hope you made one,  as for failed making a partition, usually that is a user mistake to wipe a whole disk is a user choice
[08:55] <YoLuca> will it be better tp install unbuntu on a 500 GB or 160 GB ? does it really matter about the boot up time ?
[08:56] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: what does 'locate libflashplayer.so' do?
[08:56] <danya_> how can I know the type of processor I have ? I'm on Intel .. but I want to know a 64 or 32 ?
[08:56] <tritium> danya_: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:56] <RoC_MasterMind> Max00, check out this article on slashdot from today: http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/07/07/16/002203.shtml
[08:57] <RoC_MasterMind> /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[08:57] <RoC_MasterMind> /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[08:57] <Jaeneva> I'm not sure I understand whatI 'm reading
[08:57] <YoLuca> will it be better tp install unbuntu on a 500 GB or 160 GB ? does it really matter about the boot up time ?
[08:57] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: what does 'apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree' return?  use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:57] <Littlegator> ompaul, the data wasn't massively important or irrecoverable, I was just hoping that I could recover it instead of reinstall all of it again. Anyways, all that I did was create a swap, root, and primary partition for ubuntu using unallocated space, and it failed making the primary partition and then the drive was wiped...
[08:58] <ReSpEcT> I cant get Synaptic Package Manager to open, in order 2 install BitchX....Is it just me, lol
[08:58] <ompaul> Littlegator, what format did you try to make / ?
[08:58] <Littlegator> ext3
[08:58] <RoC_MasterMind> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30141/
[08:58] <ompaul> Littlegator, and /boot the same?
[08:58] <Littlegator> yes
[08:58] <Max00> RoC_MasterMind thanks for the link
[08:58] <jrib> ReSpEcT: what happens when you try?
[08:59] <ReSpEcT> ot tries 2 open on bottom of tool bar, then it disappears
[08:59] <RoC_MasterMind> YoLuca, whichever you like.
[08:59] <ompaul> Littlegator, so that is most unusual, see where I work I have in the region of 18 machines running ubuntu and the only formatting problems are when I do silly things
[08:59] <YoLuca> RoC_MasterMind so it will not matter about the boot up speed ?
[08:59] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: dpkg -S /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so     and the same for the other location
[08:59] <Littlegator> ompaul, now it can't even set a disklabel
[08:59] <ompaul> Littlegator, if you were using that other thing on the same machine it should be reinstalled first
[09:00] <Littlegator> that other thing?
[09:00] <ompaul> Littlegator, yeah I have done that a few times :) so what you do with the live Cd is
[09:00] <ReSpEcT> hrmmm
[09:00] <Kjellviz> how big are the differences between ubuntu and kubuntu ?  I mean, is it basically the same OS just with different graphical interface, or does it dig deeper than that?
[09:01] <jrib> Kjellviz: it's different default apps, but they use the same repositories, so the same software is available to you
[09:01] <ompaul> Littlegator, the thing that some people say is an operating system, however if it is only ubuntu then to get to play with the disk again, do this cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda1
[09:01] <RoC_MasterMind> jrib, no package found.
[09:01] <DaRk-NeT> hi all
[09:01] <ompaul> Littlegator, sorry cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda
[09:02] <arnath> heh lol... got a grub 5 error this morning (partition messed up) and then my computer wouldnt start at all, i leave it alone all day and it works again :|
[09:02] <yeniklasor> What is the best RSS Feed application?
[09:02] <ompaul> Littlegator, that assumes a disk type
[09:02] <jrib> ReSpEcT: try to include my name in your reply or I'll miss it.  What does 'gksu synaptic' do in a terminal?
[09:02] <DaRk-NeT> i need help
[09:02] <Littlegator> ompaul, I have windows in this box, but it's in an alternate drive that wasn't wiped
[09:02] <ali1234> where can i get a deb for jdk 1.5?
[09:02] <jrib> RoC_MasterMind: then just delete both files
[09:02] <jrib> !java > ali1234 (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:02] <MrTsunami> DaRk-NeT: don't ask to ask, just ask :D
[09:02] <Littlegator> ompaul, I'll try running the command one second
[09:02] <RoC_MasterMind> I'll try that..thanks jrib
[09:02] <Kjellviz> jrib: ok, so basically if i have problems running world of warcraft in wine in kubuntu, it will be exactly the same in ubuntu ?
[09:02] <DaRk-NeT> MrTsunami som one speak frensh ?
[09:03] <jrib> Kjellviz: yeah, very likely

[09:04] <_tuzhila> ok, on ubuntu?
[09:04] <Kjellviz> jrib: reason for asking is cos i had it working so well on my previous comp running ubuntu, on my new comp i felt like trying kubuntu, and im experiencing issues with running it
[09:04] <_tuzhila> tell me, how i can do it on ubuntu

[09:05] <jrib> Kjellviz: well i don't think it would matter, but it won't hurt to set aside a few gigs and install ubuntu to a new partition to try it out
[09:06] <Kjellviz> jrib: i might as well blow away kubuntu in that case, since its a fresh install that aint working ><
[09:06] <Jaeneva> From what I understand, I have to create separate users for my ubuntu system, and samba, is there a way to make samba just use my ubuntu users?
[09:06] <younghacker> packages that never fully installed and i would rather just remove them instead of reinstall however i get a error message on attempt

[09:08] <Dumderflu> Can anyone help me?  I got my wireless up and running, but froze up and had to shut down.  Now it doesnt work.
[09:08] <Andyho> now I just gotta figure out if there's a linux prog like active desktop calendar.. there's gotta be..
[09:08] <younghacker> how can i remove packages that were not completely installed

[09:09] <younghacker> ok
[09:09] <steam> I got client IRC, but, can (while does not can) not them use unfortunately. Help me, please
[09:09] <Littlegator> ompaul, what does this have to do with anything? They're installed on different hard drives...
[09:09] <ompaul> Littlegator, lots
[09:10] <jrib> steam: can you rephrase?  I don't understand
[09:10] <Cyber_Stalker> any one here familiar with dual booting?
[09:10] <rolnics> hi talking wireless is there, has anyone got a solution to using the netgear wn311b?
[09:10] <ompaul> Littlegator, it puts a boot manager on the first disk to choose from unless you got vista in which case the rules change and I don't know them
[09:10] <Kjellviz> steam: type: /join ubuntu-ru
[09:10] <Littlegator> ompaul, I laready have GRUB =\
[09:10] <younghacker> would i have to put the package name into that command somewhere?
[09:10] <Kjellviz> steam: if it does not work, type: /join #ubuntu-ru
[09:11] <Shadow_Warrior> younghacker: nah... it should automatically discover errors...
[09:11] <Shadow_Warrior> let me see
[09:11] <Littlegator> ompaul, I've had ubuntu installed before, but it had a really annoying problem and the only solution anyone could give was "do a fresh install"
[09:11] <ompaul> Littlegator, well you need to install again from scratch from what you have said
[09:11] <younghacker> i see
[09:11] <Kjellviz> jrib: i think he means he has got IRC client, its working but he doesent know how to use
[09:11] <younghacker> when i run that command it puts me at like a help screen so i am trying to figure what to omit
[09:11] <ompaul> Littlegator, anything else is a waste of your time,
[09:11] <Littlegator> ompaul, I'm trying to install from scratch =\
[09:12] <ompaul> Littlegator, ergo the dual boot option I gave you
[09:12] <Falstius> Littlegator: if you want to install xp after you have ubuntu installed, you really only need to reinstall grub.  This can be done pretty easily from a liveCD, you can find instructions on the web.
[09:12] <steam>  I do not talk on in English Only with a translator(((
[09:12] <photo_nut> Is there a better desktop than gnome in anyone's opinion that I should try? What I would like is to keep gnome but to get a better panel. Any suggestions?
[09:12] <Littlegator> falstius, I already have windows installed, I am just trying to reinstall ubuntu
[09:12] <Andyho> kjellviz: only ubuntu on this machine
[09:12] <CheesyMonkey> steam, What language?
[09:12] <flukierdonut> hey everyone
[09:13] <Shadow_Warrior> Argh... it did give me the command one time when there were dependency problems :/
[09:13] <Shadow_Warrior> younghacker: sudo dpkg --configure -a :D
[09:13] <steam> I am Russian
[09:13] <Shadow_Warrior> Hello steam :)
[09:13] <younghacker> cool thanks guys
[09:14] <Kjellviz> Andyho: theres an application called gdesklet that will let you add calendar to the desktop
[09:14] <Shadow_Warrior> It worked? :D
[09:14] <Kjellviz> Andyho: gotta check the name again, one sec
[09:14] <younghacker> yea i can tell it's working because the first package it went to was the broken one.... thanks again
[09:14] <Shadow_Warrior> steam: Don't really know if someone can talk russian hope they do.. :/
[09:14] <Kjellviz> Andyho: yeps, its gdesklet
[09:14] <jrib> steam: type:   /join #ubuntu-ru
[09:15] <Kjellviz> Andyho: no idea if its supported etc, and i found it a bit buggy, but its all ive found so far ><
[09:15] <steam> good-bye. Be happy in undertaking
[09:15] <Littlegator> Can anyone tell me how I can create a disklabel for hda?
[09:15] <Kjellviz> lol
[09:16] <Andyho> Kjellviz: does it let you put notes on it as well? I usually use active desktop calendar with the 3 calendar display and notes/tasks to the right.. I'm only on day 2 of running strictly ubuntu but so far LOVING it! :)
[09:16] <ompaul> Littlegator, you don't need to, they are not needed
[09:16] <RoC_MasterMind> Littlegator, why would you want to?
[09:16] <Littlegator> ompaul, I can't create partitions without a disklabel...
[09:16] <ompaul> Littlegator, you can
[09:16] <Littlegator> ompaul, it's refusing to let me
[09:16] <Kjellviz> Andyho: no idea, havent tried the calendar yet, i dont use those but rather outlook-kinda calendars instead
[09:16] <ompaul> Littlegator, just accept the defaults
[09:17] <ompaul> Littlegator, stop what you are doing and start again
[09:17] <liorkamer> i install amsn and he want tls where i get it ?
[09:17] <ompaul> Littlegator, it is designed to be easy
[09:17] <khin> hi is there some program that will allow me to highlight a word and then have its dictionary definition displayed
[09:18] <mhz`-> anyone use a microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard 1.0a w/ fiesty?
[09:19] <Littlegator> ompaul, I don't know what you mean by accept the defaults, but I'm not going to use an entire 250gb hdd for Ubuntu alone. I want 200 of it for storage purposes
[09:19] <RoC_MasterMind> khin, highlight it in what program?
[09:20] <RoC_MasterMind> I use the CLI program dict when I want a definition
[09:20] <Kjellviz> allright, im off to installing ubuntu as a last resort and hope for a functional PC again =(
[09:20] <ompaul> Littlegator, then you choose manual and point to disk 2 and then you tell it you want 49G for / and give it 1G for swap and then give the rest to /data or some such
[09:20] <ripley> just a stupid beginners question ;) where do i get gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly (universe)? i want to use the mp3 codec but i can't find this damn gstreamer plugin...synaptic only servs the "good" packages ...thanx for your help in advance
[09:20] <Kjellviz> wish me luck, ill need it!
[09:20] <Littlegator> ompaul are you not listening? I can not tell it I want 49G for it because I can not create partitiong because there is not a disklabel
[09:20] <ompaul> Littlegator, however do you think that if you did one full install on that disk and then went back it might be easier for you
[09:20] <RoC_MasterMind> !info gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[09:20] <ubotu> gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly: GStreamer plugins from the "ugly" set. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.10.5-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 202 kB, installed size 528 kB
[09:20] <RoC_MasterMind> ripley, it's in universe
[09:21] <khin> would it be possible to make a program that can look up whatever words you highlight in any other program
[09:21] <ompaul> Littlegator, tell you what I have a lappy here that needs a reinstall and I will get to that point on it and
[09:21] <ripley> RoC_MasterMind: thanx a lot
[09:21] <ompaul> Littlegator, tell you what you need to do
[09:22] <RoC_MasterMind> khin, sure, it's possible to make anything.
[09:22] <Littlegator> ompaul I know how to install normally. I have been running a dual boot with ubuntu and windows xp for about 2 years.. I am just trying to reinstall ubuntu and I am getting an unorthodox error
[09:22] <khin> i think that would be a useful program

[09:27] <c00i90wn> Hi, how do I remove a known wirless network from network-manager ?
[09:27] <DrakeJustice> robokop: place a new libstdc++.so.6 (obviously not with that name) in /lib and directly link to it with the program that uses it
[09:27] <ompaul> Littlegator, do this with your install in a terminal "sudo fdisk -l " shove it into paste.ubuntu-nl.org thanks
[09:28] <robokop> DrakeJustice: an d how should i get another libstdc++
[09:28] <Caydel> hello al

[09:29] <Caydel> does anyone know how to prevent the filemanager being launched when I install a new CD?
[09:29] <khin> hi i see i can view the vista partitions in ubuntu. can i get write access to these partitions? & can i get vista to see my ubuntu partition?
[09:29] <CheesyMonkey> !ntfs-3g | khin
[09:29] <ubotu> khin: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:29] <Caydel> it ends up blocking disk reads when I am trying to install multi-disk programs in wine
[09:29] <mhz`-> anyone use a microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard 1.0a w/ fiesty? it dies right before login screen any ideas?
[09:30] <RoC_MasterMind> khin, Windows does not support non-MS filesystems...   there is an old tool you can use called explore2fs or something./
[09:30] <PinkFloyd> Is there a program I can run to format a drive in my computer that Ubuntu *isnt* on?
[09:30] <Littlegator> ompaul: http://www.pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/30147/
[09:30] <Caydel> PinkFloyd: gparted
[09:30] <PinkFloyd> ok thanks
[09:30] <jrib> PinkFloyd: use the ubuntu livecd
[09:31] <RoC_MasterMind> PinkFloyd, put in an boot an ubuntu CD and click System/Admin/GNOME partition edoitor
[09:31] <walls> when booting from cd to install ubuntu i get an error msg along the lines  of "buffer I/o error on dev fdo logical block 0" - i went on to install ubuntu and it wouldnt boot into dektop after installtion? help ne1? :))
[09:31] <PinkFloyd> I found a LiveCD of Gparted, I'll use it
[09:31] <PinkFloyd> plus
[09:31] <Littlegator> ugh it's not working ompaul one second...
[09:31] <PinkFloyd> I can just unmount the drive and just format it inside of Ubuntu
[09:31] <profanephobia> so i cant wait for the dual monitor GUI in the new release
[09:31] <Littlegator> ompaul: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30147/
[09:31] <\Ben> and play the division bell in the background while running it :P
[09:32] <Caydel> does anyone know how to prevent Nautilus from being launched when I install a new CD?
[09:32] <Falstius> PinkFloyd: the one advantage of using gparted from your installed system is that you can't accidentally format the drive you're using.
[09:32] <dk> when i put in my ubuntu disk and try to boot from it i get this message:
[09:32] <Caydel> I mean, insert a new CD

[09:32] <ompaul> Littlegator,  that is a small L
[09:32] <Littlegator> L?
[09:32] <profanephobia> i had that problem but couldnt find a solution ... after logging on with another keyboard it started working though
[09:33] <PinkFloyd> Falstius, ok I'll run Gparted inside of Ubuntu then
[09:33] <PinkFloyd> Falstius thanks
[09:33] <c00i90wn> So, no one knows how to remove a known wireless network from nm-applet ?
[09:33] <RoC_MasterMind> PinkFloyd, however, you will have to reboot after creating a new partition table...so it's best to use a livecd anyway
[09:33] <\Ben> PinkFloyd, i also reccomend the division bell for background music to make sure it works :p
[09:33] <profanephobia> c00i one sec ill post help
[09:34] <mhz`-> anyone use a microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard 1.0a w/ fiesty? it dies right before login screen any ideas?

[09:34] <vbgunz> I've done probably a dozen installs on a dozen computers. friends and family. I've used Ubuntu since the end of Hoary and never really had a problem. Now, with 7.04, I cannot *install* the OS using the live cd. I keep getting a grub-install error at the end? whats up, is this common? whats the fix? use the alternate?
[09:35] <RoC_MasterMind> vbgunz, is that a burned CD or ordered CD?
[09:35] <mhz`-> did check the cd for defects?
[09:35] <RoC_MasterMind> yeah
[09:35] <Falstius> vbgunz: you could probably install grub manually.
[09:35] <vbgunz> an ordered CD, it keeps complaining grub-install (hd0) failed...
[09:35] <KarateKat> I have enabled the "universe" repository on a feisty livecd, yet I can't find this package w/ synaptic or apt-get.. any ideas why? http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/admin/bkhive AND http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/admin/samdump2
[09:36] <khin> why when i try to write to my vista partition it says i dont have permissions
[09:36] <ompaul> Littlegator, I take it you have a fiesty CD
[09:36] <vbgunz> Falstius: I tried restoring grub *but* don't think I can restore something that has never been installed as I failed again miserably at it. how do you *just* install (not restore) grub?
[09:36] <Littlegator> ompaul, it's edgy..
[09:36] <Pici> KarateKat: Thats the gutsy version that you linked to.
[09:36] <KarateKat> I need to recover an XP administrator password from an old ghost image I just restored.. though packages.ubuntu.com shows those tools available they don't show up in the package manager..=0
[09:36] <KarateKat> hrmm
[09:36] <jrib> KarateKat: are you sure those exist on feisty?
[09:36] <KarateKat> not sure.. better check
[09:37] <Pici> KarateKat: They dont look like they exist in feisty.
[09:37] <ompaul> Littlegator, it is not much different
[09:37] <walls> when booting from burned cd to install ubuntu i get an error msg along the lines  of "buffer I/o error on dev fdo logical block 0" - i went on to install ubuntu and it wouldnt boot into dektop after installtion. help ne1? :))
[09:37] <walls> ive checked the iso file and its fine
[09:37] <Genomsaren> hi
[09:37] <Falstius> vbgunz: grub-install .. you should google for detailed instructions.
[09:37] <ompaul> Littlegator, have you pasted it output of the command yet, not a number 1 but a lower case L
[09:37] <thebigham> hello everyone
[09:37] <KarateKat> they don't.. hrmm
[09:37] <slmnhq> how can i add a network printer to my feisty box? "Add a Printer" dialogue asks me to install a driver in the second step... i have none
[09:37] <Genomsaren> I have a serious problem with my gdm
[09:37] <KarateKat> guess I will need gutsy.. thanks
[09:37] <profanephobia> i need a good remote port sniffer for my network for ubuntu...any ideas?

[09:37] <thebigham> i just installed unbutu for the very first time, and i have a little problem
[09:38] <Genomsaren> and kdm doesnt wokr in my pc
[09:38] <vbgunz> Falstius: yeah, no joke, I man grub-install and came up with nothing useful; or anything that'll work
[09:38] <thebigham> it resized my windows partition to 40gb which is not enough
[09:38] <ompaul> Littlegator, well it seems you did not read my last note, that makes it very hard for you to progress
[09:38] <ompaul> Littlegator, have you pasted it output of the command yet, not a number 1 but a lower case L
[09:39] <khin> how do i change the permissions so that i can write to my vista partition
[09:39] <mhz`-> did check the cd for defects?

[09:39] <thebigham> can anyone help
[09:39] <thebigham> it used up 140gb of my hard drive
[09:39] <Anlar> lol@evolution.. sheesh.. 1300 non-triaged bugs in bugzilla :-D talk about being unmaintained!
[09:39] <RoC_MasterMind> thebigham, yeah ditch that junk and use GNOME PARTITION EDITOR on the ubuntu livecd
[09:40] <khin> i thought ntfs-3g comes w/ dapper? & i can read from the vista i just cant write
[09:40] <furenku> is it possible to install ub untu studio on a laptop with an amd turion 64
[09:40] <furenku> ??
[09:40] <Anlar> khin: think again
[09:40] <nate_> hey i just ran the software update and now when i rebooted my X server won't start complaining it didn't load the NVIDIA kernel module and nvidia.ko can't be loaded
[09:40] <jrib> khin: ntfs-3g is not in dapper repos
[09:40] <thebigham> how can i reduce the size of ubuntu and add it to windows partition
[09:40] <RoC_MasterMind> thebigham, GNOME PARTITION EDITOR
[09:40] <thebigham> Okay =)
[09:41] <MajorPayne> thebigham: It's on the live cd.
[09:41] <Littlegator> oh wow ompaul sorry >_>
[09:41] <nate_> can anyone help me get X back up
[09:41] <walls> possible reasons why ubuntu doesnt load into desktop after installation?
[09:41] <ripley> RoC_MasterMind: i've installed every gstreamer package synaptic servs but i still doesnt play mp3-files.... :/
[09:41] <Falstius> slmnhq: system->administration->printers, add printer, use a detected printer (hopefully)
[09:42] <nate_> it's saying it can't open nvidia.ko but it's pointing to a place that it shouldn't be
[09:42] <Littlegator> ompaul, I don't get an output...
[09:42] <SurfnKid> anyone know where I can get help installing a Ricoh SD memory card reader?
[09:42] <slmnhq> Falstius, the HP LasterJet 8000 shows up (step 1)
[09:42] <nate_> anyone know what file i edit to undo that
[09:42] <slmnhq> Falstius, but in step 2, Manufacturer, Model, etc are blank
[09:42] <Falstius> slmnhq: if it is generic postscript, it shouldn't be a problem.
[09:42] <ompaul> Littlegator, ehh you don't .... you better tget a new install disk then cos that command has to work out of the box or you can't install
[09:43] <mhz`-> anyone use a microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard 1.0a w/ fiesty? it dies right before login screen any ideas?
[09:43] <nate_> can anyone help me get X back up
[09:43] <slmnhq> Falstius, on my mac book i use it as a generic postscript
[09:43] <taime1> if i am still running edgy, can i upgrade all my packages and still use the newest beryl packages? or do i have to do a dist-upgrade?
[09:43] <conorkirkpatrick> I installed Ubuntu to my HD, and I know X doesn't work on the card for some reason, but is there a key combo that will put me at a shell?
[09:43] <MajorPayne> !ask | nate_
[09:43] <ubotu> nate_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:44] <nate_> ubotu: i already asked it multiple times
[09:44] <Littlegator> ompaul, okay.. I guess I'll order a disk.. how long to they take to arrive, normally?
[09:44] <ompaul> taime1, I would do a fresh install you really don't want to break the box in new and interesting ways methinks
[09:44] <slmnhq> Falstius, but on feisty i don't get the option to select "postscript" driver for it... suppose it's not installed?
[09:44] <ompaul> Littlegator, 6 weeks or so, better to find a mate with a working box
[09:44] <Szeraax> WisdomWlf: now, you dont happen to be wisdomwolf do you?
[09:44] <ompaul> Littlegator, and get them to burn you a CD or burn one yourself from your windows machine
[09:44] <MajorPayne> nate_: You did not say what is wrong.  Error messages/describe your problem.  You are not giving people very much to go on.
[09:44] <Agip> the ubuntu HDD does not leave me erase because it says it is full
[09:44] <Agip> what about that?
[09:44] <ripley> !info gsteamer ugly
[09:45] <ubotu> Package gsteamer does not exist in feisty
[09:45] <Littlegator> ompaul, are you sure it's the cd? I've used this cd for multiple installs.. why couldn't it be a problem with a partition table?
[09:45] <ripley> !info gstreamer
[09:45] <ubotu> Package gstreamer does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:45] <taime1> i guess my question is: will beryl work with edgy? or do i need to upgrade to feisty?
[09:45] <conorkirkpatrick> I installed Ubuntu to my HD, and I know X doesn't work on the card for some reason, but is there a key combo that will put me at a shell?
[09:45] <nate_> MajorPayne: i already did but here it goes again, i updated software via the system update and then when i rebooted X failed saying it didn't load nvidia module into kernel because it can't find .../nvidia.ko
[09:45] <ompaul> Littlegator, you can't run fdisk -l (the lower case L not the number 1 as you did on the test) so you got a problem
[09:45] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: alt+f1 or f2
[09:45] <conorkirkpatrick> nate_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[09:46] <Falstius> slmnhq: it is installed, you could just choose manufacturer: generic, then postscript.
[09:46] <nate_> k
[09:46] <Littlegator> ompaul, yes it's a problem but why is the install disk the culprit?
[09:46] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: alt+ctrl+f1 or f2   sorry
[09:46] <PF|Ubuntu> Ok Ive got a bit of a problem. Im getting ready to format my Win98 HD so I can use it as storage. The problem is, I think the MBR is on that drive and Im working if it'll screw GRUB up or if there's anything I can do about it?
[09:46] <Agip> the ubuntu HDD does not leave me erase because it says it is full?
[09:46] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: hmm, those ddidn't do anything...
[09:46] <nate_> conorkirkpatrick: no such package
[09:46] <slmnhq> Falstius, ok.. on my box i can't even select manufacture "generic"... not sure why, it's an empty pull-down
[09:46] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: really?
[09:46] <conorkirkpatrick> nate_: I know it exists, make sure you typed it right, I just installed it yesterday
[09:47] <mhz`-> anyone use a microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard 1.0a w/ fiesty? it dies right before login screen any ideas?
[09:47] <login_> hello , i have a question about the kernel. Does it the ubuntu kernel say that it is the ubuntu kernel?
[09:47] <nate_> conorkirkpatrick: sudo apt-cache search doesn't even show it
[09:47] <nate_> just nvidia-glx
[09:47] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: Yes, really :D X doesn't work, so this has to be a text shell, were those the combos to kill X and go into text mode?
[09:47] <JasonF> Anyone know where I can find a 40x40 png of the Ubuntu logo with a transparent BG?
[09:47] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: no... thats just how i switch between ttys
[09:48] <PF|Ubuntu> Ok Ive got a bit of a problem. Im getting ready to format my Win98 HD so I can use it as storage. The problem is, I think the MBR is on that drive and Im working if it'll screw GRUB up or if there's anything I can do about it?
[09:48] <erisco> gvim was removed from my computer yet all my .php files are trying to open up with it... how do I fix this.?
[09:48] <Falstius> slmnhq: that's weird.  Can you post a screenshot of step 1 and step 2?
[09:48] <nate_> this is incredibly annoying
[09:48] <slmnhq> Falstius, ok, let me try
[09:48] <jrib> JasonF: they are on the wiki, but I don't remember the page offhand.  let me see if i can find it again
[09:48] <Littlegator> PF|Ubuntu, as long as that is not set as the first hdd to boot, there won't be any problems
[09:48] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: Do you have any idea how I can get to a shell at all? (be it from another computer, or right on the host?)
[09:48] <ompaul> Littlegator, cos you need to run that program or I can't help you with your install
[09:49] <PF|Ubuntu> Littlegator, so if Ubuntu is the first drive set to boot, it's fine?
[09:49] <Littlegator> pf|Ubuntu, yes
[09:49] <PF|Ubuntu> Littlegator, what if GRUB isnt installed on the Ubuntu disk?
[09:49] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: is there an option in the boot loader?
[09:49] <nate_> conorkirkpatrick: i'm just going to try and install nvidia-glx again
[09:49] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: lemme look

[09:50] <login_> hello , i have a question about the kernel. Does it the ubuntu kernel say that it is the ubuntu kernel?
[09:50] <Littlegator> PF|Ubuntu, I'm actually not sure, now that you mention it. It /should/ be fine but I have never experience ubuntu without GRUB
[09:50] <slmnhq> Falstius, where would you like me to post the screen shots?
[09:50] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: I assume it is recovery mode?
[09:50] <MajorPayne> login_: That sentence doesn't make any sense.
[09:50] <nate_> conorkirkpatrick: why would it be trying to open /lib/modules/mykernel/volatile/nvidia.ko instead of the real nvidia.ko
[09:50] <PF|Ubuntu> I accidently screwed up a HD one time by deleting the Win partition
[09:51] <PF|Ubuntu> I dont want to do the same
[09:51] <PF|Ubuntu> I just want to reformat as storage
[09:51] <conorkirkpatrick> nate_: IDK, but try apt-get update then install nvidia-glx-new, I am %100 sure that exists
[09:51] <login_> i am asking ifthe ubuntu kernel has any type of stamp on it or something that says it is made by ubuntu or smth
[09:51] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: Ah, It dropped me to a shell :)
[09:51] <walls> can any1 please shed some light on why a clean install of ubuntu as a partition hasnt worked? btw the boot takes forever and i dont reach the desktop!!!
[09:51] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: cool
[09:52] <slmnhq> send Falstius Step1.png
[09:52] <conorkirkpatrick> nate_: In fact, I am fixing mine, and I am downloading the package as we speak (sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[09:52] <slmnhq> send Falstius Step2.png
[09:52] <login_> anyone?
[09:52] <conorkirkpatrick> !logo | jasonf
[09:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about logo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:52] <Cappy> not sure login_
[09:52] <Falstius> slmnhq: you should be able to post them to pastebin or some such (I've never actually done it)
[09:52] <login_> ok cappy . anyone get an idea?
[09:52] <conorkirkpatrick> Now, I keep asking this (I need to write it down :P) What command restarts gdm?
[09:53] <nate_> conorkirkpatrick: why the hell won't that show for me
[09:53] <ompaul> login_, the kernel is not where it identifies itself, you can run uname -a and get some clues but if I understood what motivated your question then I might have a more constructive answer foryou
[09:53] <taime1> does beryl work on edgy?
[09:53] <conorkirkpatrick> nate_: IDK I don't know much about apt-get's strange ways... ask around
[09:53] <nate_> taime1: yes
[09:53] <taime1> sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald emerald-themes?
[09:53] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:54] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: er, sudo ...
[09:54] <thebigham> I tried the partition eiditor in the ubuntu live CD to resize the ubuntu partition and it didnt work
[09:54] <thebigham> can someone help me with this probrlem
[09:54] <bmk789> i have tried the liveCD and alternate CD to install feisty on my PC and they both freeze. the alternate freezes are partman-ext3, what could be the problem
[09:54] <login_> what motivated it is that i am remastering ubuntu and i need to know if i should compile kernel 2.6.22 myself or keep the ubuntu one. Also , when i try to compile myself the klernel is completely large .(like 500 mb and the deb is 190 mb) while the ubuntu kernel is smaller
[09:54] <jrib> JasonF: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official I'll add it to the bot as !logo
[09:54] <PF|Ubuntu> thebigham, try the alternate CD
[09:54] <taime1> thebigham: use gparted live cd. if you are resizing an ntfs partition, you need to defrag it first
[09:54] <Littlegator> ompaul, I rebooted and fdisk -l worked
[09:55] <Jordan_U> thebigham, You can onluy resize the tail of ext3 partitions
[09:55] <PF|Ubuntu> How can I tell where GRUB is installed?
[09:55] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: Oh, I know why that doesn't work. I think X is locking up when I try to start it, or X is showing up on the other 2 of my 3 monitor ports :P
[09:55] <thebigham> then what could i do
[09:55] <taime1> conorkirkpatrick: i see
[09:55] <taime1> PF|Ubuntu: 'locate grub"
[09:55] <taime1> PF|Ubuntu: or 'whereis grub'
[09:56] <ompaul> login_, well to keep it easy I would keep the ubuntu kernel  == you could end up with a bucket load of problems the other way
[09:56] <surviver> is there a possibility to set at each workspace a different wallpaper?
[09:56] <bmk789> i have tried the liveCD and alternate CD to install feisty on my PC and they both freeze. the alternate freezes are partman-ext3, what could be the problem?
[09:56] <jrib> surviver: google for wallpapoz
[09:56] <conorkirkpatrick> taime1: On the integrated one, It is a garbled mess
[09:56] <PF|Ubuntu> I meant, which HD GRUB is loaded onto
[09:56] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: I think it should show up on all of the ports unless you configure it not to.
[09:56] <lastkey> Hi, I can connect my msn account on PIDGIN, amsn is not working either, help
[09:56] <PF|Ubuntu> I dont want GRUB to screw up on me
[09:56] <surviver> jrib, hy there and ill take a look :d
[09:56] <Jordan_U> surviver, Yes, I don't remember how to do it though
[09:56] <lastkey>  Hi, I can not connect my msn account on PIDGIN, amsn is not working either, help
[09:56] <ompaul> Littlegator, in the time since I said I was going to reinstall I have done so and have the laptop doing its reboot between install and first boot
[09:56] <login_> ya that is what i was thinking to but if there is some type of thing saying that it belongs to ubuntu or somehting then i dont want to use it. But the fact that it is light intrigues me
[09:57] <ompaul> Littlegator, feisty has no such issues
[09:57] <beni_> how can i show all devices i've plugged in via console? Like Processor, Ram, CDRom, Ethernet, HDD etc
[09:57] <beni_> and configure them, of course
[09:57] <thebigham> is there any step by step guide to reduce the size of the ubuntu partition and add it to the windows parition????
[09:57] <Syntux> does rsync work with bz2 files ?
[09:57] <ompaul> thebigham, no
[09:57] <thebigham> =(
[09:57] <ompaul> thebigham, if you have partition magic or some such program maybe you can do something
[09:58] <conorkirkpatrick> Falstius: It isn't showing up on the secondary port on the video card.
[09:58] <thebigham> i tried partition magic
[09:58] <thebigham> it doesnt work
[09:58] <thebigham> i can click on the resize option
[09:58] <conorkirkpatrick> Falstius: Wasn't there a command that reconfigured X? (It isn't dpkg, it was nvidia-config or somehting)
[09:58] <thebigham> cant**
[09:58] <mikeyb> when i try to use the nvidia utility to save to X configuration file" it gives me the error unable to remove old X config backup file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup ... any ideas / suggestions
[09:58] <Littlegator> ompaul, it looks like my partition table is back in the installer... I don't think the disk was actually wiped
[09:59] <ompaul> Littlegator, have fun
[09:59] <Jordan_U> thebigham, Like I said, you can only resize the tail of an ext3 partition, you could add another partition after Ubuntu and put files there, or just use the ext2 driver for windows to write to your ext3 partition
[09:59] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: run it with sudo in front of it
[09:59] <mikeyb> ok
[09:59] <mikeyb> thank you conor
[10:00] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: no prob, and also you helped me too, I forgot the command to reconfigure it :P
[10:00] <mikeyb> wait, do you know where the nvidia configuration utility can be launched from?
[10:00] <mikeyb> because I did it from the apps menu
[10:00] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: The console (may be called terminal)
[10:00] <mikeyb> i mean the file location to launch from terminal
[10:01] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: It should just work if you type sudo nvidia-xconfig
[10:01] <mikeyb> okay
[10:01] <Jordan_U> mikeyb, gksudo nvidia-settings
[10:01] <mikeyb> even better
[10:01] <mikeyb> :)
[10:01] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: Yeah, do that, it is in a GUI
[10:01] <conorkirkpatrick> mikeyb: :D
[10:02] <magnetron> #trivia
[10:02] <mikeyb> oh, one more question to make my life easier: anyone know a shortcut command to launch terminal or konsole?
[10:02] <conorkirkpatrick> YES! WAHOO! I never knew I would love nVidia's logo so much :')
[10:02] <mikeyb> or how to view many shortcuts?
[10:02] <conorkirkpatrick> X started
[10:02] <mikeyb> haha
[10:02] <surviver> jrib, u know anything about this? :   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30151/
[10:03] <Littlegator> ompaul, it seems that the error is occuring when it tries to delete my old linux partition.. I was reinstalling ubuntu and had a random power spike which caused it to reboot, and my install was screwed up
[10:03] <Littlegator> ompaul, now I can't delete the offendind partition
[10:03] <ompaul> Littlegator, do sudo fdisk -l please and paste it
[10:03] <surviver> jrib, ow i think i know su .. i test
[10:03] <surviver> jrib, jup idd sry for interupt
[10:03] <conorkirkpatrick> Does anybody know why my menubar dissapears when I enable desktop effects?
[10:04] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: dpkg-reconfigure xorg I think
[10:05] <conorkirkpatrick> Falstius: Are you sure? I just used nvidia-xconfig and it fixed it, is there a possibility that running that command will break X again?
[10:05] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: there is a not about that in the beryl wiki entry on ubuntu (the one they link in the #ubuntu-effects title)
[10:05] <Littlegator> ompaul: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30152/
[10:05] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: they do similar things.  If it works, don't break it.
[10:05] <beni_> how can i show all devices i've plugged in via console? Like Processor, Ram, CDRom, Ethernet, HDD etc
[10:05] <beni_> and configure them, of course
[10:06] <toryl__> mikeyb: system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts
[10:06] <Falstius> conorkirkpatrick: er, they changed the topic.  This is the link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnFeisty
[10:06] <conorkirkpatrick> Falstius: The main thing I wanted was the cube workspaces, And if I just turn that on, the titlebar is back, now how do you show the cube?
[10:07] <Jordan_U> conorkirkpatrick, ctrl+alt+ mouse drag
[10:08] <intrin> hello
[10:08] <conorkirkpatrick> Jordan_U: What should I be dragging? because that didn't do anything (maybe I didn't enable the cube, lemme check)
[10:08] <intrin> any idea what would cause my control-c to type c, instead of doing the command?
[10:08] <intrin> well control-anyletter
[10:08] <intrin> it just up  and stoped working
[10:08] <ompaul> Littlegator, I don't see a second drive there
[10:08] <intrin> ie: control-c for breaking ping, or control-x for exiting pico
[10:09] <Kenz1> how do I set up wireless on ubuntu commandline install / server install? no network-manager
[10:09] <Theory> a broken ctrl key?
[10:09] <Littlegator> ompaul, neither do I... I can see it in gparted, but it's not on fdisk -l
[10:09] <Jordan_U> intrin, Does the control key show up in xev?
[10:09] <leitao> After update from 6.10 to 7.04 my firefox is so unstable. Everytime it is crashing. Did anyone see this problem?
[10:09] <intrin> jordan, how do i look, new to nix :/
[10:09] <leitao> how could I "debug" it to see what is going on?
[10:09] <Jordan_U> leitao, Try disabling flash
[10:10] <kjellviz> any idea why the update manager wants me to upgrade to kernel .16 while apt-get does not ?
[10:10] <leitao> Jordan_U: yes, I think flash is related to it, since when I am on youtube, it crash almost every time.
[10:10] <leitao> Jordan_U: is there any fix to it?
[10:11] <ompaul> Littlegator, what kind of a disk is it on gparted sda or hdb or what?
[10:11] <conorkirkpatrick> What command tells me where I left my damn GameCube controller? ;)
[10:11] <Littlegator> ompaul, it's hdb
[10:11] <Kenz1> how do I set up wireless on ubuntu commandline install / server install? no network-manager
[10:11] <Jordan_U> leitao, Not really :(
[10:11] <ompaul> Littlegator, do fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[10:11] <Littlegator> connorkirkpatrick, sudo apt-get eyes
[10:11] <c00i90wn> I have an OpenVPN connection configured on my network-manager and configured it so that when connected every request for 10.8.0.0/24 is tunneled across it
[10:12] <Jordan_U> Kenz1, man iwconfig
[10:12] <leitao> Jordan_U:  at 6.10 it works finely.
[10:12] <c00i90wn> the problem is that when I connect to it /etc/resolv.conf gets replaced with an empty file
[10:12] <aantn> !flashamd64
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flashamd64 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:12] <c00i90wn> and I can't browse anmore
[10:12] <x89x> hello
[10:12] <aantn> !flash64
[10:12] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[10:12] <x89x> i want help
[10:12] <Kenz1> Jordan_U: I know how to use iwconfig... but how do i save my settings for reboot?
[10:12] <x89x> want help mounting a unmounted FAT32 partitiion
[10:12] <c00i90wn> so, how can I avoid that behavior?
[10:12] <Jordan_U> Kenz1, /etc/network/interfaces
[10:13] <kjellviz> are there considered to be any problems with running Amarok on Ubuntu ? (gnome)
[10:13] <PriceChild> kjellviz, no
[10:13] <genii> Kenz1: For help on syntax of that file do   man interfaces
[10:14] <\Ben> if i get the error 'interface doesn't support scanning' on my wireless usb .... it is problem with the actually usb nic or the install?
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> Hey
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> I need help
[10:14] <RichW> what do i add to crontab to make a command run every 5 minutes?
[10:14] <kjellviz> PriceChild: ok, so basically it should work just as nice as under KDE ?
[10:14] <conorkirkpatrick> Jordan_U: I installed beryl, and I can use the cube, but my menubars dissapeared
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> I wana deleat all my windows files on my ubuntu system without affecting ubuntu.   Anyone know how?
[10:14] <Jordan_U> \Ben, Probably a driver issue.
[10:14] <\Ben> ah ok ta
[10:14] <jklewis> what key to I press to see console during bootup instead of splash screent?
[10:14] <\Ben> hm
[10:15] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Gparted?
[10:15] <wwalker> I just installed ubuntu on my new notebook.  Every ssh connection takes 15 seconds before the password prompt.  My Fedora notebook and myoffice mates MacBook (OS X) don't have the delay.
[10:15] <wwalker> It's not DNS reverse lookup, that would affect the others.  any ideas?
[10:15] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  oh, hi again
[10:15] <Chewy> any IRCOPS here?
[10:15] <Chewy> I need to talk to one.
[10:15] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:    is gparted that gnome partition thing?
[10:16] <jklewis> What key shows me the boot console at boot time?
[10:16] <Jordan_U> jklewis, At boot enter the grub menu and remove "splash" from the list of kernel parameters
[10:16] <jklewis> thanks Jordan
[10:16] <toryl__> \Ben: what is the model / chipset of your nic?
[10:16] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Yes, you may need to run it from a liveCD
[10:17] <tomh-> hey anyone know what could be the cause of my native resolution not working?
[10:17] <\Ben> its the belkin f5d7050 ver 3000. - ralink
[10:17] <CheesyMonkey> tomh-, Not setup in xorg.conf?
[10:17] <tomh-> well i can select it
[10:17] <tomh-> but it messes my screen up
[10:17] <Kjellviz> anyone know why the update manager wants me to upgrade to .16 kernel, while apt-get doesent ?
[10:17] <\Ben> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_%28Ralink_rt73_driver%29?highlight=%28f5d7050%29 been following this one
[10:17] <tseo> hello everyone
[10:18] <tseo> i need some help
[10:18] <godlygeek> So, I accidentally managed to install Grub to both the mbr and to the linux partition - any safe way to remove one of them?  would 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda2 bs=512 count=1' break everything?  heh
[10:18] <LukeEkblad> oh, this happens wh[en ever i check for updates now:  unable to copy users Xuthrorization files.  Anyone know how to fix it?
[10:19] <\Ben> i removed network manager and installed wifi-radar also toryl__ .... but when it scans with that it just spams that it doesnt support scanning.
[10:19] <PriceChild> Kjellviz, ok
[10:19] <godlygeek> LukeEkblad: You should be able to do 'rm .Xauthority' from a terminal, then restart X - I can't guarantee that that will fix it, but it shouldn't hurt and might fix it.
[10:19] <toryl__> \Ben: one problem I had was the encryption method I was using.  If you are using anything but WEP turn it off for diagnostic purposes.
[10:20] <toryl__> \Ben: and even WEP, too, really.  Can you connect from the command line?
[10:20] <\Ben> no :s
[10:20] <\Ben> light flashes non stop on the nic
[10:20] <gejr> how do i find out which xorg-version im running?
[10:21] <kevinl--> dpkg -l | grep xorg
[10:21] <kevinl--> ?
[10:21] <x89x> please help me !
[10:21] <x89x>  i have three drives. 1 is NTFS. 1 FileSystem and the third is the FAT 32 which is lost !!
[10:21] <x89x> how do i get it back !
[10:21] <PurpZeY> Is there a way to do an unrar of a series of files to a specific directory via cli?
[10:21] <toryl__> \Ben: can you connect when you specify all the AP parameters--i.e. without scanning first?
[10:22] <genii> kevinl--: You are looking for xserver-xorg package to install?
[10:22] <tseo> i got a laptop with vista and i want to install Ubuntu but when the installation starts and reaches the partition manager it just stops on "scanning drives"
[10:22] <Jordan_U> x89x, How is it "lost"?
[10:22] <x89x> jordan: i unmounted it
[10:22] <\Ben> toryl__, i have tried with the command line and editing the interface file
[10:22] <x89x> using 1 command
[10:22] <\Ben> but when i then do iwconfig is doesnt find my ssid info
[10:22] <gejr> thanks kevinl-- :)
[10:22] <godlygeek> x99x: 1 FileSystem?  What do you mean by 'FileSystem'?
[10:22] <LukeEkbla1> I cant search for updates now.   Every time i try, it says: unable to copy Xusers athoritation files
[10:22] <Jordan_U> x89x, So you just need to re mount it?
[10:22] <Littlegator> ompaul, I had to reboot again but now I'm going to take a shower, so I'll get back to you in 20...
[10:22] <x89x> sudo umount /media/hda1
[10:22] <x89x> sudo mv /media/hda1 /media/newname
[10:22] <x89x> i used this command
[10:23] <ompaul> Littlegator, if I am around ya
[10:23] <toryl__> \Ben: so you specify an SSID and then it doesn't show up when you do iwconfig?
[10:23] <x89x> jordan_U: yes. i want it back
[10:23] <genii> kevinl--: nvm I see now it was for gejr
[10:23] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: cd /to/the/dir/you/want/to/extract/to; cp /dirwith/rar/files/*.rar .; for file in *.rar; do rar x $file; done
[10:23] <Jordan_U> x89x, So to mount it do: sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/newname
[10:23] <ana> Hi is there an easy way to switch which drive GRUB is on?
[10:23] <zOrK> any mp3 player for terminals? (other besides mpg123)
[10:24] <khin> hi my clock is consistently messed up in ubuntu. its always four hours too early. i set my time zone to America/New York and deselected Synchronize with Internet Servers
[10:24] <PriceChild> !fixgrub | ana
[10:24] <ubotu> ana: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:24] <zOrK> ?? ntp
[10:24] <\Ben> nope thats right - i have specified all the network info in the interface file, down and up the rausb0 again then iwconfig and its changed the channel to 11, but left mode as auto - even when i speficied managed.
[10:24] <khin> im using dapper
[10:24] <Jordan_U> x89x, If you want to have it mount automatically at boot edit your /etc/fstab
[10:24] <\Ben> and the ESSID says OFF/ANY
[10:24] <live> no.org
[10:24] <\Ben> even tho its specified in the interface file
[10:24] <godlygeek> zOrK: good old mplayer
[10:24] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: I got the first bit, what's that about file in *.rar; do rar $file; ?
[10:25] <toryl__> \Ben: that happened to me too.  Let me see if I can find the info that helped me.
[10:25] <ChrisF_> I just installed Apache2, PHP and MySQL so I could use this machine as a little webserver to develop on.  However, my /var/www folder is only accessible as root so how can I design sites on this machine without having to use sudo every time I want to create a new file or folder?
[10:25] <gejr> it says i'm running Xorg version 7.2-0ubuntu
[10:25] <ana> thanks!
[10:25] <\Ben> thanks toryl__, much appreciated.
[10:25] <LukeEkbla1> somebody pleas help...  I cant search for updates now.   Every time i try, it says: unable to copy Xusers athoritation files
[10:25] <gejr> shouldn't it be Xorg version R7.3 ?
[10:25] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: that is what a shell script looks like when it's written inline.  :)
[10:26] <Jordan_U> gejr, 7.3 won't come until Gutsty
[10:26] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Ok, but how do I make it proper?
[10:26] <mgmedel> hello there, how can  I find out my wireless card model and manufacturer, I have tried lspci and lshw but no luck at all, with lshw I just get wireless interface and no more details
[10:26] <Jordan_U> gejr, * Gutsy
[10:26] <jklewis> My splash screen keeps dumping after my encrypted partition doesn't pass fsck.  What is the best solution to solve this?
[10:26] <specialcharacter> Hi all. I wonder if someone could help me out with apache2?
[10:26] <russe11> !ask > specialcharacter
[10:26] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: if you're typing it in a terminal, it's probably easier to do "for file in *.rar" ENTER "do" ENTER "rar x $file" ENTER "done"
[10:26] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: The semicolons are just a different way of separating the lines.
[10:27] <specialcharacter> whats that russel?
[10:27] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: That command is "for every file in the directory whose name ends in '.rar', call 'rar x FILENAME'"
[10:27] <x89x> jordan_U: sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/newname doesnt do anything !
[10:27] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: What do you mean by 'make it proper'?
[10:27] <LukeEkbla1> i need help plzzz
[10:27] <Jordan_U> x89x, No output?
[10:27] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: What you just said is fine, I wanted to make sure to get the command right...So it's best to move the rars to the final destination, then run that script?
[10:27] <PriceChild> specialcharacter, ask your real question
[10:27] <godlygeek> LukeEkbla1: did you try 'rm .Xauthority' from a terminal?
[10:27] <zilliot> opensource kills jobs!!
[10:28] <jklewis> Where can I change which partitions are checked during boot-up?
[10:28] <ana> OK, I read all that, but i'm not sure I understand.
[10:28] <zilliot> opensource is shit!
[10:28] <gejr> Jordan_U: ok, but shouldn't it be possible to get it from source somehow? What makes it so much harder to install this in ubuntu than in i.e. archlinux?
[10:28] <Jordan_U> !ops

[10:28] <russe11> Thanks PriceChild.
[10:28] <ana> I need to unmount my windows partition, and that is also the /boot partition (i believe)
[10:28] <x89x> jordan_U: no

[10:28] <genii> ChrisF_: I usually make a dir there and chown it to www-data then symlink to it from some users home dir who will be developing the page. then put them in group www-data
[10:28] <ompaul> Jordan_U, when do you that can you do it like this !ops | USERNAME you want attention drawn to :)
[10:28] <specialcharacter> ok. i have installed apache2 and php5, installed the mod thing, followed all the instructions, restardted apache etc, but apache doesnt catch requests for php
[10:29] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: Yeh, that would work fine.  You could do it in plenty of different ways, though.  easier than what i just came up with, you could do 'cd /to/the/destination; for file in /orig/directory/*.rar; do rar x $file; done'
[10:29] <il_padrino> helllo
[10:29] <il_padrino> i need help with proftpf and proftp-mysql
[10:29] <Jordan_U> gejr, Nothing, just: sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg to get all the dependencies and compile away
[10:29] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: I think that will serve me better.
[10:29] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> Hey my wifi wnp511 card works out of the box with ubuntu but i was wondering how to get it working on the command line using iwconfig. I just installed a command line ubuntu and cant get it going.
[10:29] <Falstius> I sometimes wish ext3 supported ACLs.
[10:29] <jklewis> In the boot sequence, how I can have an encrypted partition skipped for fsck?
[10:29] <Jamesinator> Falstius: What are you trying to do?
[10:30] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: That's fine.  Both work. The first is slightly easier if you intend to remove the rar files when done, i think.  *shrug*
[10:30] <ana> http://www.venturecake.com/a-simple-guide-to-using-your-existing-windows-install-apps-in-ubuntu/
[10:30] <Kenz1> LiNuX_Fr3aK: me too....
[10:30] <DrakeJustice> wine 0.9.41... has anyone noticed the serious boom in wine development lately?
[10:30] <ana> is what I'm trying to do.
[10:30] <Falstius> Jamesinator: nothing, just obliquely responding to genii's statement.
[10:30] <LukeEkbla1> help Pleas...
[10:30] <Jamesinator> Falstius: Ah.
[10:30] <godlygeek> jklewis: Do you need it to be mounted automatically?
[10:30] <jklewis> yes
[10:30] <jklewis> but it's encrypted
[10:30] <runa> hi can sb help me configure the touch pad. It works but i cant do the scrolling. this is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m68ae864
[10:30] <toryl__> \Ben: just to make sure, you have no encryption on that router, correct?  And it is set to broadcast your ssid?
[10:31] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> There is too much bloat in Ubuntu so I wanna go command line and build my way up to what i need. Where do I start with wifi
[10:31] <LinuxProbie> Hey, can someone tell me how to make a command-line script that I can fire using a button on one of the taskbars?
[10:31] <\Ben> 1sec i check
[10:31] <ana> It says /media/sda1 mount disagrees with the fstab
[10:31] <ana> So I can't unmount that drive.
[10:31] <godlygeek> jklewis: man fstab, check the 2nd to last paragraph in Description
[10:32] <Jamesinator> LinuxProbie: See query
[10:32] <jklewis> godlygeek: thanks
[10:32] <disasm> Hey all, I have a ~/.fluxbox/apps file that matches by title of a window for autoresizing as well as removing title bars for a terminal. I just upgraded from debian sarge to ubuntu edgy. My fluxbox version is Fluxbox 1.0rc2. Anyways, back to the problem. It doesn't use the default aterm window settings my other terminals do. If I don't pass any options to aterm, it comes up transparent, but without shading. If I try to force any shading,
[10:32] <godlygeek> it says that if you put a '0' in the 6th field for that partition in fstab, it won't be checked.
[10:32] <Falstius> LinuxProbie: make the script, then right click on the pannel and "add to panel", add custom launcher
[10:32] <tomh-> anyone knows why my native resolution wont show up on the screen resolution config screen?
[10:33] <disasm> tomh-: Is it in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[10:33] <tomh-> no
[10:33] <disasm> tomh-: if your resolution isn't in there, it won't show up in the gnome config
[10:33] <tomh-> how do i properly add it?
[10:33] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: I am getting "rar" command not found...I installed the unrar package, I've been using it via gui, is it unrar as opposed to rar, am I missing something?
[10:33] <LukeEkbla1> I need help
[10:34] <Falstius> disasm: do you know if that is 'fixed' with the xorg 7.3?  True plug in play monitor support will be really nice.
[10:34] <\Ben> toryl__, it must be broadcasting its ssid as other laptops can see if when not on the network. as for security its setup with 128 wep
[10:34] <_Lucretia_> is there a deb for vmgl?
[10:35] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: The problem, then, is that you don't have a commandline program to do the un-rar.  no big deal.  just do 'sudo apt-get install rar'
[10:35] <LukeEkbla1> every time i try to search for updates, it says:  unable to copy Xusers Athorization files
[10:35] <toryl__> \Ben:  1. make sure you're setting the key with iwconfig before you're setting the SSID and 2. try connecting with WEP disabled.
[10:35] <disasm> tomh-: good question, I custom write my xorg.conf, so I don't know any easy way to do it. If you look for a SubSection    "Display" in the file, change the Modes line, to contain all the resolutions your monitor supports
[10:35] <\Ben> ok cheers, ill give that ago. have been putting key after ssid
[10:35] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: Then follow the first set of instructions.  The program's name is 'rar', and the 'x' after it means 'extract'.  :)
[10:35] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Done deal...installed the package...=)...Now I am told "invalid option"  I have it as rar x that right?
[10:36] <DarkRamon> hello
[10:36] <DarkRamon> how are you guys
[10:36] <Falstius> PurpZeY: godlygeek, rar e file.rar
[10:36] <PurpZeY> godlygeek:  for file in *.rar; do rar x $file; done that's the exact command.
[10:36] <DarkRamon> .... whats the command to send all messages i have in queue with exim?
[10:36] <toryl__> \Ben: good luck
[10:36] <PurpZeY> Falstius: Thanks.
[10:37] <con> After installing Beryl I have no Title bar, and the fix on the WiKi didn't do anything
[10:37] <disasm> Falstius: I doubt it. Probably the easiest way to "fix" the problem is to have a gui tool in Admin menu that has options for resolutions and dual head setups, etc... xorg does a very good job at detecting hardware and determining resolutions, but there is no easy way without editing the file to fix it's guesses.
[10:37] <godlygeek> uh...
[10:37] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: replace 'rar x $file' with 'echo rar x $file' and show me the first line that it prints out.  :)
[10:37] <DarkRamon> hello?... whats the command to send all the messages in queue with exim?
[10:37] <danya_> how can I know If my firefox is a 32 or 64 ?
[10:38] <PurpZeY> godlygeek:  for file in *.rar; do rar x $file; done
[10:38] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Ack. my mistake.
[10:38] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `echo'
[10:38] <LukeEkbla1> can somebody pleas help me? pleas?
[10:39] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: yikes.  i dunno.  i've been using zsh, not bash, and it's probably a subtle difference in syntax.
[10:39] <x89x> how do i get my unmounted drives backk ???
[10:39] <LukeEkbla1> every time i try to search for updates, it says:  unable to copy Xusers Athorization files
[10:39] <specialcharacter> can someone help me with apache? i cant get it to run php?
[10:39] <con> After installing Beryl I have no Title bar, and the fix on the WiKi didn't do anything
[10:39] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: Try 'for file in *.rar' <ENTER> 'do' <ENTER> 'rar x $file' <ENTER> 'done' <ENTER>
[10:39] <Falstius> PurpZeY: for file in `ls --color=none *.rar`; do rar e $file; done
[10:39] <x89x> sudo umount /media/hda1
[10:39] <x89x> sudo mv /media/hda1 /media/newname
[10:39] <zellei> ejha
[10:39] <zellei> doktor
[10:40] <zellei> vagyis doktorok
[10:40] <godlygeek> x99x: sudo mv /media/newname /media/hda1; mount /media/hda1
[10:41] <Falstius> PurpZeY: a more robust way is: find . -name '*.rar' -exec rar e \{} \;
[10:41] <DarkRamon> can someone please help me?
[10:41] <Jamesinator> !anybody | darkramon
[10:41] <ubotu> darkramon: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[10:42] <DarkRamon> i did it
[10:42] <PurpZeY> Falstius: Cannot open ls.rar
[10:42] <PurpZeY> No such file or directory
[10:42] <DarkRamon> again: ... whats the command to send all messages in queue with exim?
[10:42] <godlygeek> Falstius, PurpZeY : True enough, find is a little bit better.
[10:42] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: replace '*.rar' with '/from/dir/*.rar'
[10:42] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: wait
[10:42] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: That was wrong.
[10:42] <toryl__> zellei: what language?
[10:43] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: make it 'find /from/dir -name "*.rar"'
[10:43] <PurpZeY> godlygeek, Falstius: This is the command I ran:  for file in 'ls --color=none *.rar'; do rar e $file; done
[10:43] <LukeEkbla1> I really need help
[10:43] <Falstius> PurpZeY: even better better is, find /some/dir -name '*.rar' -maxdepth=0 -exec rar e \{} \;
[10:43] <LukeEkbla1> can someone help me?
[10:43] <Falstius> PurpZeY: you need to us ` not '
[10:43] <LukeEkbla1> Pleas?
[10:43] <PurpZeY> Falstius: On both sides?
[10:43] <Jamesinator> !repeat | LukeEkbla1
[10:43] <ubotu> LukeEkbla1: 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
[10:43] <Falstius> PurpZeY: yes
[10:44] <LukeEkbla1>  every time i try to search for updates, it says:  unable to copy Xusers Athorization files
[10:44] <Falstius> PurpZeY: `some_command` and $(some_command) are equivalent in bash.
[10:44] <godlygeek> LukeEkbla1: 3 times, i've asked if you tried 'rm .Xauthority' from a terminal, and 3 times, you didn't answer me.
[10:44] <furenku> does the Intel Media Accelerator X3100 work well with ubuntu? instead of nVIDIA
[10:44] <Falstius> PurpZeY: if there are any spaces in the file names though, it will break.  Find doesn't have that problem.
[10:45] <LukeEkbla1> godlygeek:   I dident see cuz you dident say my name first, sorry :(
[10:45] <aegil> hi, I installed ubuntu, and for some reason my chevrons are showing like that as doubles, instead ofsingles, and i need to sort it for coding, is there anything i can check to fix it
[10:45] <godlygeek> LukeEkbla1: Yes, yes i did, all 3 times.  :-p
[10:45] <PurpZeY> Falstius: I just discovered that....Let me see if I can't get that find to work.
[10:45] <dingdong> Installing Pidgin in Ubuntu 7.04, will there be a fix for apt-get that wants to remove ubuntu-desktop??
[10:45] <it0> I made a not so smooth ptransition from SLED10 to ubuntu 7.04, the biggest problem that I have is a mouse that is very sluggish, I tried different protocols, but nothing helped, this is a normal logitech usb mouse? anyone have an idea what to do?
[10:46] <CheesyMonkey> dingdong, You can remove ubuntu-desktop, its simply a meta package which drags in all the required packages
[10:46] <shawn34> I have video captured to my pc, i'm looking for an app that I can create nice little home movies with and add music and effects. I tried using LiVES but its buggy and really confusing. What else is out there?
[10:46] <it0> aegil: check your keyboard settings
[10:46] <Falstius> PurpZeY: to get ride of all the spaces, rename 's/ //g' *.rar
[10:46] <Meyvn> it0: you checked mouse sensitivity?
[10:46] <Noooop> ...
[10:46] <tschaka> merc avi ger/english
[10:46] <godlygeek> CheesyMonkey, dingdong : Don't do that, or it will likely break distro upgrades from edgy or feisty to gutsy
[10:46] <PurpZeY>  Falstius: find -name '*.rar' -maxdepth=0 -exec rar e \{} \; will unrar to the current dir?
[10:46] <dingdong> CheesyMonkey: thats what i thought
[10:46] <it0> Meyvn: yes, doesn't make a difference, it feels like it's stuttering
[10:46] <dingdong> godlygeek: erm, that was to you :)
[10:47] <Meyvn> it0: try plugging it into another USB slot
[10:47] <Falstius> PurpZeY: find . -name '*.rar' -maxdepth=0 -exec rar e \{} \;
[10:47] <CheesyMonkey> dingdong, You can remove it though?
[10:47] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: not '.', '/from/dir'
[10:47] <Falstius> PurpZeY: in linux, . means the current directory and .. means up one directory.
[10:47] <orm> question
[10:47] <orm> how can I get alsaconf for dapper drake
[10:47] <PurpZeY> Falstius: find: invalid predicate `-maxdepth=0'
[10:48] <dingdong> CheesyMonkey: sure i can, but i'm using gnome and xfce, and like the os the way it is. don't want to brake it
[10:48] <it0> now it stopped working completely
[10:48] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: *sigh*, it's not -maxdepth=0, it's '-maxdepth 0'
[10:48] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: I just copied and pasted. . .
[10:48] <Meyvn> it0: hmm
[10:48] <aegil> thanks it0, i figured it out, was a problem with my remote desktop settings
[10:48] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: i'm not getting frustrated by you, i'm getting frustrated because it's so hard to explain things through a bunch of copy-pastes, heh
[10:48] <Falstius> PurpZeY: sorry that is -maxdepth 0, no =
[10:49] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: adding the 's didn't change...same error....
[10:49] <Cyber_Stalker> it0 try rebooting?
[10:49] <Justi1> how do I install OpenGL Python bindings
[10:49] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: wait, no...
[10:49] <shawn34> I have video captured to my pc, i'm looking for an app that I can create nice little home movies with and add music and effects. I tried using LiVES but its buggy and really confusing. What else is out there? Anyone know of any good apps?
[10:49] <Meyvn> it0: using an USB logitech mouse here as well, let me check my mouse settings
[10:49] <Kjellviz> does ubuntu have anything similar to kubuntus option "edit as root" when rightclicking files ?
[10:49] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: The command should be
[10:49] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: find /from/dir -name '*.rar' -maxdepth 0 -exec rar e \{} \;
[10:49] <it0> i used al kinds of distro's never a problem, installed ubuntu on seevral ystesm, also not a problem, however on this machine it is
[10:50] <Meyvn> it0: did you find any mouse conf file?
[10:50] <orm> can I get alsaconf for dapper drake?
[10:50] <it0> tried another port, now it is working
[10:50] <Falstius> PurpZeY: godlygeek: actually it is -maxdepth 1
[10:50] <it0> Meyvn: should have tried that sooner
[10:50] <godlygeek> dingdong: i don't know how to make apt-get not want to remove it, though.  although, you might be able to counteract the bad things that could happen when it is removed by allowing ubuntu-desktop to be removed, and then installing ubuntu-server.. i don't know bad that would be, though.
[10:50] <Falstius> PurpZeY: my bad.  I don't use that switch very often.
[10:51] <Meyvn> it0: great ;)
[10:51] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compilel in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.
[10:51] <godlygeek> Falstius: :)  Serves me right for listening to you.  of course, he's right, it's maxdepth 1
[10:51] <Meyvn> it0: maybe one of the USB slots was dirty/corrupted?
[10:51] <it0> godlygeek: use aptitude in stead of apt-get, also try aptitude hold ubuntu-desktop
[10:52] <dingdong> godlygeek: ok, i'll look around a bit... weird that there hasn't been an update for that. thanks tho!
[10:52] <it0> Meyvn: hard to imagine, it's a new monitor, perhaps to Little power
[10:52] <godlygeek> dingdong: ^that was really to you
[10:52] <it0> now I only have to get my monitor resolutionb correct

[10:53] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: x extracts and KEEPS directory structure, e extracts and disregards directory structure.
[10:53] <Meyvn> it0: then under display add your desired resoluation under Depth 24
[10:54] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Now I am getting the maxdepth error again, using the x option
[10:54] <Meyvn> it0: save and close the file, that should do it

[10:55] <orm> what are the alternatives to alsaconf?
[10:55] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: you don't want 'find .'  You want 'find /from/dir' The thing immediately after find is the directory to search in.
[10:55] <Littlegator> aquacurve: did you check the disk for errors?
[10:55] <rolfen> aquacurve: maybe it doesnt want to install

[10:57] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: it needs to be find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.rar" -exec rar e \{} \;
[10:57] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Interesting...It seemed to work using e. At any rate, how do I get it right?
[10:57] <DJ_Danni> Yes but one with Empty nothang just Screen
[10:58] <azslande> oh sorry, yes I did get results with just gettext but nothing with the name glib-gettext
[10:58] <orm> is there an alsaconf or equiv for dapper drake
[10:58] <azslande> i misread what you type swb
[10:58] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: The last mistake left is that we had the -name and -maxdepth clauses switched.  -name always needs to be after any other 'selection' inputs.  *shrug*, tiny mistake.
[10:58] <[swb] > I see azslande
[10:58] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: Don't let this scare you away from command line stuff.  this would have been a lot faster if i had been seeing the errors and lines used verbatim, heh
[10:58] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compilel in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found. Do I have to install Gentoo to get this working?
[10:58] <[swb] > well type that, and see what the letter is to the left of gettext and gettext base
[10:58] <orm> s there an alsaconf or equiv for dapper drake
[10:59] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: I am not scared of CLI...Just never did any scripting before...Happy to learn...=)

[10:59] <DJ_Danni> littlegator i mean like Scrren 1 and screen 2
[10:59] <azslande> I get several results when searching for just gettext
[10:59] <toryl__> unagi: all the time.  I assume you've already made sure your swap file exceeds your ram?
[10:59] <Littlegator> DJ_Danni do you mean monitors or the seperate desktops?
[10:59] <DJ_Danni> Yes
[10:59] <Littlegator> Which one?
[11:00] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Zoom-Zoom...It works! Thanks...=)...
[11:00] <[swb] > azslande, and what letter does it say to the left of gettext and gettext-base (should be the first two)
[11:00] <unagi> no....i dunno where the swap file is or what you mean by exceeds my ram
[11:00] <DJ_Danni> I need to get Screen 2 to woork. I see this Chat at boath Scrrens
[11:00] <orm> could somebody please hlp?
[11:00] <[swb] > like i.p.v etc..
[11:00] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: no problem.  I usually use an inline script, i'm rusty on find.  :)
[11:00] <azslande> i then A next to gettext and just i next to gettext-base
[11:01] <Littlegator> DJ_Danni: oh, I get what you're talking about. Well, I'm not positive on how to do it and my Ubuntu is failing right now, so I can't really help you. Sorry. =\

[11:01] <shawn34> !video editing
[11:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about video editing - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:01] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: the fact that i never get the syntax for find right on the first shot is exactly WHY i usually use an inline script, lol
[11:01] <shawn34> uhg
[11:01] <DJ_Danni> AAH ok
[11:01] <orm> could some one please help
[11:01] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: Whatever works...=)...This is excellent...Saved me sooooo much clicking.
[11:01] <orm> ould some one please help
[11:01] <DJ_Danni> But is it not like in the Windows?
[11:01] <jmazikowski> anyone have any idea what could be happening? or is there a java centric IRC channel somewhere that i should as in?
[11:01] <toryl__> unagi:  the size of your swap partition -- /swap when you did your partitioning in the beginning--has to be larger than the amount of RAM you have, or hibernate fails.
[11:02] <toryl__> unagi:  assuming it's the right size, though, because lots of things foul up hibernation, maybe this might help you:  http://preview.tinyurl.com/32tn5e
[11:02] <DJ_Danni> But is it not like in the Windows?
[11:02] <orm> ould some one please help
[11:02] <orm> ould some one please help
[11:02] <orm> ould some one please help
[11:02] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: i hate gui's... cli stuff is so much faster since i learned to use it, i never look back anymore.  except for web browsers and instant messengers... *shrug*, but otherwise CLI FTW!

[11:02] <[swb] > azslande, I would guess try installing libgettextpo-dev
[11:03] <[swb] > but I dont know
[11:03] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.
[11:03] <[swb] > as you have gettext packages installed
[11:03] <PurpZeY> godlygeek: What's that maxdepth business about?
[11:03] <Littlegator> ompaul, if you're still there: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30160/
[11:03] <azslande> ok, it guess its some type of addon for gnome-common
[11:03] <unagi> uswsusp screwed up my pc
[11:03] <azslande> at least thats what iv read
[11:03] <ompaul> Littlegator, so hdb is formatted for windows
[11:03] <DJ_Danni> ubotu do you know how its done?
[11:03] <Usrl> question: is there a way to tell WINE specifically to open a program outside of the virtual desktop? I need to run two programs at once, one of them cannot be run on the desktop, and one has to be
[11:03] <unagi> lol DJ_Danni
[11:04] <walls> can any1 make any sense out of this - when installation from image cd i get the message "buffer I/o error on dev fdo logical block 0" - the installation went through ok but the os didnt load properly and hanged on desktop
[11:04] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: maxdepth is number of directories down to search.  so, only search 1 dir below what you gave as a command line argument.
[11:04] <DJ_Danni> lol what?
[11:04] <Ubulindy> I was manually checking for updates today, got error: the following problems were found on your system ( with a list of URL's )  What command do I run to delete the dupes?
[11:04] <unagi> youre asking ubotu a question like its a real person
[11:04] <godlygeek> PurpZeY: in other words, maxdepth one only looks at ./*, maxdepth 2 only looks at ./*/*, etc
[11:04] <Gnontghol> Usrl: just run it like $wine ~/some/file.exe
[11:04] <Littlegator> ompaul: yes
[11:05] <Usrl> Gnontghol: And...? what good is that supposed to do?
[11:05] <godlygeek> walls: sounds like a bad install disk or hd - but fdo sounds like a disk drive.
[11:05] <ompaul> Littlegator, so it seems to me that if you have a live CD just install I can't see where you are having problems with it, it is really easy, pop in CD and seven steps later it should be installed and ready to use,
[11:05] <walls> yer?
[11:05] <Gnontghol> Usrl: run ~/some/file.exe
[11:05] <davetarmac> HI folks - I'm having an issue with AWN. It seems to have taken the bottom 6th of my screen hostage. I just have a big black bar at the bottom about twice as high as the dock itself.  Has anyone had this problem before?
[11:06] <Usrl> Gnontghol: You didn't even read my question at all, did you?
[11:06] <walls> i had xp on there and then ran install from cd - went through then the first initial boot sequence from the hd was very slow and couldnt reach the desktop - what do u recommend godlygeek?
[11:06] <Littlegator> ompaul, I am trying to but it fails at deleting a corrupt partitiong...
[11:06] <DJ_Danni> Do somone know how i get screen 2 to work? I see this chat at boath 2 screens.
[11:07] <tupa> which version of ubuntu has the newer and not so unstable packages?
[11:07] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.
[11:07] <tupa> I come from debian and I'm going to try ubuntu on another box
[11:07] <godlygeek> walls: i'm by no means an expert, but i would try comparing the ISO to the disk and making sure they match...
[11:08] <tupa> I want some version like the testing in debian
[11:08] <godlygeek> walls: actually, if you still have a good windows system, try 'scandisk' from windows to check the hard disk for problems.
[11:08] <tupa> that is quite stable but has the newer packages
[11:08] <walls> i did a cheksum godlygeek and it was fine
[11:08] <RkyRaccoon> can someone help me with the rescue mode from the install disk?
[11:08] <ompaul> Littlegator, so have you backed up the data on that partition?
[11:09] <Gnontghol> tupa: the standard ubuntu releases are not far from the debian testing
[11:09] <Ubulindy> Can somehow tell me how to remove duplicate source list entries?
[11:09] <yell0w> hey guys, the language support in unbuntu is it just for the default programs ?
[11:09] <Littlegator> ompaul: the corrupt partition? It has no data I want on it...
[11:09] <unagi> anyone know if its possible to switch sides the icons on the desktop sit and/or how to add 'arrange by type' to the menu?
[11:09] <RkyRaccoon> can someone help me with the rescue mode from the install disk?
[11:09] <ompaul> Littlegator, so then do this in a terminal "sudo cat /dev/zero > /dev/hdb"
[11:09] <nvictor> hello guys
[11:10] <nvictor> how do I check the mail queue?
[11:10] <ompaul> Littlegator, ctrl+c after a few seconds and go again
[11:10] <ompaul> nvictor, mailq :)
[11:10] <sample45> question. to install ubuntu do i need another operating system on the hardrive? or does it install from the bootscreen?
[11:10] <palomer> hello
[11:10] <nvictor> ompaul: simply?
[11:10] <Littlegator> ompaul why hdb?
[11:10] <\Ben> toryl__, took security off altogether now, when doing a sudo ifup rausb0 , it looks for DHCPOFFER but doesnt revice any. dhcp is turned on on the router
[11:10] <ompaul> Littlegator, cos that is the second disk
[11:10] <Wooww> how do i set the 1152x864 resolution on gnome ?
[11:11] <unagi> sample45 use gparted on the boot cd to partition the hd first
[11:11] <Gnontghol> sample45: It installs from the live cd
[11:11] <Littlegator> compaul, hdb is the windows disk, which I don't want to edit at all..
[11:11] <\Ben> also no when i do iwconfig, it says nickname"belkin54g" where it didnt before.
[11:11] <\Ben> now*
[11:11] <ompaul> Littlegator, you are destroying the partition table and then it can be started with afresh
[11:11] <sample45> unagi, can the partition easily be taken away?
[11:11] <Littlegator> ompaul, why are we doing anything with my windows disk anyways?
[11:11] <Usrl> question: is there a way to tell WINE specifically to open a program outside of the virtual desktop? I need to run two programs at once, one of them cannot be run on the desktop, and the other has to be
[11:12] <\Ben> i will ty with a static ip as i remember i had that problem once with a windows laptop not picking up dhcp from it.
[11:12] <unagi> what partition sample45
[11:12] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy the firmware into the initramdisk but I get the same errors: File not found.
[11:12] <zilliot> OpenSource kills jobs!
[11:12] <sample45> unagi. if i were to say (god forbid) want to get rid of ubuntu would it be easy to erase the partition?
[11:12] <tupa> Gnontghol have you tried debian? and if you have, which one did you like the most?
[11:12] <[swb] > zilliot, hahaha
[11:12] <Littlegator> Usrl, I really have no idea if this is what you want, but you can try "wine /file path/"
[11:12] <Usrl> zilliot: wrong, but no.
[11:12] <Gin> hi
[11:13] <unagi> sample45 no more or less difficult than any other partition
[11:13] <[swb] > OpenSource makes my job easier
[11:13] <Gin> when I insert my memory stick, ubuntu doesn't mount it for me
[11:13] <Gnontghol> tupa: Yes, but I allways came back to ubuntu
[11:13] <Usrl> Littlegator: If you don't even know what i'm talking about, please don't answer.
[11:13] <Gin> but it does show up as /dev/sdf1 when I run dmesg
[11:13] <sample45> unagi, thanks
[11:13] <finfin82> hi i installed the ubuntu 7.10 rc2 and have some trouble with compiz :)

[11:14] <RkyRaccoon> guys i cant boot ubuntu
[11:14] <compengi> RkyRaccoon, O.o why
[11:14] <RkyRaccoon> im getting fed up with it
[11:14] <ryanakca> how can I remove all X, KDE, etc packages?
[11:15] <Littlegator> ompaul, why are we messing with my windows disk at all?
[11:15] <Gnontghol> zilliot: How do you think we make our mony without a job?
[11:15] <RkyRaccoon> compengi, i dont know it seems to be a video driver problem but im not sure
[11:15] <RkyRaccoon> compengi, after load screen it just gives me a black screen, no login screen
[11:15] <ompaul> Littlegator, you are on your own enjoy
[11:15] <Josie1> I have a rather generic SD card reader that Ubuntu recognizes, mounts, and all that good stuff
[11:15] <shawn34> I have video captured to my pc, i'm looking for an app that I can create nice little home movies with and add music and effects. I tried using LiVES but its buggy and really confusing. What else is out there? Anyone know of any good apps?
[11:15] <compengi> RkyRaccoon, the X server doesn't start?
[11:16] <RkyRaccoon> compengi, this happens every time i re-install, it starts out working fine then it starts slowly not booting
[11:16] <toryl__> \Ben:  you can try assigning a static IP address and see how that works.
[11:16] <RkyRaccoon> compengi, nothing starts
[11:16] <Usrl> So nobody here knows how to specify a program to use the WINE Desktop or not? =/
[11:16] <Josie1> problem is, I can get a file list, but everytime i try to access anything (like cp) I get a file I/O error
[11:16] <RkyRaccoon> compengi the only thing i see when i try to start is the load bar
[11:16] <RkyRaccoon> compengi, after that its a black screen
[11:16] <Hadarra> Skyraccoon: Do You have asus motherbnoard?
[11:16] <\Ben> toryl__: just tried - stil no :(
[11:16] <RkyRaccoon> hadarra, yes
[11:16] <Littlegator> So can  anyone else help? I have a corrupt partition on /dev/hda1 that I am trying to erase so I can install Ubuntu to it. However, the Ubuntu installer fails to delete the partition and resets my partition tables until I reboot.

[11:17] <\Ben> mode auto
[11:17] <toryl__> \Ben:  when you look at the info in iwconfig does it tell you anything about the signal strength and link quality?  Like, do you think it really is connected to the AP?
[11:17] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.

[11:17] <Littlegator> Josie1: Do I have to burn it? Burning isn't an option..
[11:18] <Josie1> Littlegator, I think so, but you might be able to do a usb-boot
[11:18] <toryl__> \Ben: you did an ifdown and an ifup on that interface?
[11:18] <Hadarra> No it does not wait a sec...
[11:18] <Josie1> Littlegator, currently my usb is whack so I couldn't tell you.

[11:22] <silverblade> would there be any issue with me installing ubuntu/kubuntu on a hard drive then transplanting that drive into another machine
[11:22] <toryl__> \Ben: very welcome.

[11:23] <Hadarra> Ah, Sorry but then I can't help. Try Mandriva linux for now if You can...
[11:23] <Littlegator> gnontghol josie1: How do I format just the one partition? I have personal data on another partition on the drive...
[11:23] <Sharn> walls, you could also boot it up and have it check itself
[11:24] <Josie1> gnontghol: each hard drive partition is treated as a seperate device
[11:24] <Biteyni> does anybody know how to fix NTFS errl
[11:24] <Josie1> I meant Littlegator
[11:24] <Biteyni> error in windows?
[11:24] <bruenig> walls, when you say virtual desktop do you mean the compatibility layer

[11:24] <Kraftwerk112> Hi there, I could need a little help here
[11:25] <RkyRaccoon> hadarra, any chance kubuntu would be any different?
[11:25] <Josie1> So, does anyone know what Ubuntu's problem is with my USB block devices? works fine with my usb keyboard.

[11:25] <DJ_Danni> Do somone know how i get screen 2 to work? I see this chat at boath 2 screens.
[11:25] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.
[11:25] <Josie1> I think I'm try the livecd here soon and see if it works ok with my devices and if it does I know something is weird with my install.
[11:25] <Kraftwerk112> Somehow, when I mount a DVD, the DVD mount but I cannot access anything on it
[11:26] <NixMan_> oh, you must run the script as sudo for it to work.
[11:26] <DJ_Danni> Do somone know how i get screen 2 to work? I see this chat at boath 2 screens.

[11:27] <RkyRaccoon> hadarra, ive tried that

[11:27] <mikey1> lufis: thank you
[11:27] <lufis> no prob
[11:27] <DJ_Danni> Do somone know how i get screen 2 to work? I see this chat at boath 2 screens.

[11:29] <DjViper> \Ben: did you fix it?
[11:29] <Sharn> walls, if you downloaded the default iso from the website, it should  be the live cd of the regular ubuntu
[11:29] <\Ben> DjViper, no not yet :(
[11:29] <pushpop> what peforms better on ubuntu Workstation 6.0 or Vmware-Server
[11:29] <DjViper> \Ben: do you know if you can set 'preferred' wlan networks with wifi-radar ?
[11:29] <Kraftwerk112> Does someone have an idea?
[11:29] <fiaccola> hi! I'm doing a work for my school. is there anyone who could help me to translate in italian some journalistic words?
[11:29] <bad_cables> what is the easiest GUI tool for configuring LAMP ?
[11:30] <bad_cables> WebMin?
[11:30] <DjViper> \Ben: what's the problem, exactly?
[11:30] <Josie1> Dj_Danni: Dual screens on linux is not hard, but you're probably gonna have to edit the X config file, and it's very easy to find how to do this on the net. Google is your friend
[11:30] <lufis> fiaccola: see #ubuntu-offtopic for off-topic conversation
[11:30] <Hadarra> Also when I got irritated with ubuntu, i run knoppix live cd with boot parameter "knoppix noapic". That worked.
[11:30] <bad_cables> Dual screens on the 12" iBook is not advisable
[11:30] <magic_pinguim> don`t give to me many trust one distro thta have one bug in firewall and they don`t correct they ... the firestater ins`t it running at the init need torun manually ... why ubuntu still don`t correct this?
[11:30] <Josie1> bad_cables, lol
[11:31] <\Ben> DjViper, you can configure specific networks in wifi-radar by the looks of it yes. My problem is that it wont connect to the router... When i do iwconfig - it only shows me 3 lines..
[11:31] <fiaccola> tnx
[11:31] <kblin> hi folks
[11:31] <Sharn> walls, if you know how to check md5, here are the sums: http://mirrors.gigenet.com/ubuntu/7.04/MD5SUMS
[11:31] <\Ben> DjViper, them 3 lines being ... RT73 WLAN ESSID: off/any Nickname:"belkin54g", Mode:Auto Channel=11 Bit Rate=54 Mb/s, RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
[11:31] <DjViper> \Ben: which driver / card do you use?
[11:31] <\Ben> belkin F5D7050 ver 3000, ralink
[11:31] <bad_cables> anyone know of a really simple GUI app to config LAMP?
[11:31] <Hadarra> The problem resolution as I see it is in disabling apic  (maybe also lapic and possibly even acpi)
[11:31] <kblin> can anybody tell me which samba package provides the ntlm_auth binary? I suspect it's the winbind package, but I don't have it installed
[11:32] <walls> Sharn check pm
[11:32] <DjViper> \Ben: hmm okay, I've never used that card or driver, sorry
[11:32] <Josie1> bad_cables: have you tried Google?
[11:32] <\Ben> i have followed this thread https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_%28Ralink_rt73_driver%29?highlight=%28f5d7050%29 , and then turned to this one when i had problems http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400236
[11:32] <bad_cables> yeah i  found one called WebMin
[11:32] <bad_cables> is it good?
[11:32] <Josie1> I dunno, try it out.
[11:32] <\Ben> DjViper, ah ok - no probs. thanks anyways :)
[11:33] <walls> i just wanted to confirm that by locationg the mdsum txt file on the cd and sending it to the cksum prog i could compare it to the original iso?
[11:33] <Sharn> walls, I have no pm window here, =\
[11:33] <BashBang> Sharn : you have to register to pm
[11:34] <Sharn> Thought I was. One second
[11:34] <sample45> what is beryl?
[11:34] <walls> am i right with my cd cksum method?
[11:34] <Sharn> I am registered and identified. I'm guessing walls is not?
[11:34] <Kraftwerk112> Now I it seems I cannot mount DVD's altogether
[11:34] <walls> u answered me before sharn
[11:34] <walls> in the window
[11:34] <zilliot> hi!
[11:34] <Sharn> Ah, but I didn't get your messages.
[11:35] <Kraftwerk112> I really need help on ythis one
[11:35] <zilliot> i have your ubuntu cd
[11:35] <walls> u answered one i think
[11:35] <zilliot> but not have hard drive
[11:35] <RkyRaccoon> can anyone help me with ubuntu, it wont boot and i dont want to re-install
[11:35] <zilliot> send me HD
[11:35] <Kraftwerk112> CD's are being mounted just fine
[11:35] <walls> sharn was i right btw with the cd check?
[11:36] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : why won't it boot?
[11:36] <Sharn> walls, I am honestly not very good with checking md5sums. Someone else can probably help with that. I've always been able to just boot the cd and have it check itself
[11:36] <Gnontghol> sample45: beryl is a type of red diemond
[11:36] <zilliot> eyyy!   send me HD!!
[11:36] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, i have no idea, it stopps after loading bar
[11:36] <_Lucretia_> is there a deb for vmgl?
[11:36] <sample45> gnongtghol: whats a red diamond?
[11:36] <walls> quick question. ive copied the ubuntu iso to a cd and want to check it to see if it matches the iso on the hd. can i do this by locating the ms5sum.txt file on the cd?
[11:36] <walls> ne1 quick answer? :)
[11:36] <hamza> hey guys i get a boot error  kinit no resume immage found....doing normal boot....can any one help me out here
[11:37] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : can you boot into failsafe?
[11:37] <mwe> walls: you shouldn't burn the iso as a file if you want to boot it
[11:37] <MattJ> walls, I didn't know there was an md5sum.txt on the CD
[11:37] <Kraftwerk112> Does anyone have an idea why suddenly the mounting of DVD's fails in 7.04?
[11:37] <cafuego> hamza: that's not a boot error but a normal startup message.
[11:37] <velko> sample45, if you type "beryl" in google this is the first hit. and the first question answered is your question... http://www.beryl-project.org/
[11:37] <walls> i didnt mwe i burnt it as an image
[11:37] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, you mean recovery mode? no gui just a command line?
[11:37] <{HRF}Ghost> Guys I want to uninstall linux that's on a single drive how do I do it?
[11:37] <clahey> So, is there a universe repository for dapper drake?
[11:37] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : yup
[11:37] <clahey> It doesn't seem to be listed in synaptic.
[11:37] <Josie1> Ghost: just reformat the drive?
[11:37] <{HRF}Ghost> using?
[11:38] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, yea that works
[11:38] <walls> yer there is a chksum on there
[11:38] <mwe> walls: you can't check the md5 after it's burned. I think you need to do it after you download the file
[11:38] <Josie1> {HRF}Ghost: any linux live CD or another other OS's install util
[11:38] <Jordan_U> walls, You can do that or just run the check at boot from the LiveCD
[11:38] <{HRF}Ghost> Josiel, what do I use to reformat?
[11:38] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, i keep hearing that its a video driver problem from people on this forum but I dont know how to fix it
[11:38] <Jordan_U> mwe, Yes you can, there is a sum on the CD
[11:38] <Kraftwerk112> Does absolutely noone know?
[11:38] <mwe> Jordan_U: but it's for the iso file
[11:38] <Gnontghol> {HRF}Ghost: the same as you use to format
[11:39] <hamza> but then it takes a lot of time if i don't do anything...i have to press alt F2
[11:39] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : k, so you want to boot into failsafe, login, and check the output of dmesg
[11:39] <Kraftwerk112> Or could at least give a hint to how i could go about?
[11:39] <{HRF}Ghost> Yeah I don't know what the command is
[11:39] <walls> ok Jordan_U - yer i cheksummed the iso originally on the hd but wanted to cksum the quality of the image burnt on the cd so wanted to know if that way i just suggested was correct yer? :)
[11:39] <Seoke> I'm getting ImportError: No module named gtk when I try to update to 7.04
[11:39] <Josie1> {HRF} Ghost mkfs
[11:39] <mwe> walls: that wont work I think
[11:39] <walls> he just said it would
[11:39] <Josie1> {HRF}Ghost the man page should tell you all you need to know.
[11:39] <{HRF}Ghost> k thanks
[11:40] <Jordan_U> mwe, There has to be something on the CD that will work or else there couldn't be a check at boot
[11:40] <{HRF}Ghost> later guys
[11:40] <Josie1> Np
[11:40] <mwe> walls: if the iso sum matched the CD will be fine unless it failed
[11:40] <mwe> Jordan_U: there isn't a check on boot for the md5 sum
[11:40] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, what am i looking for?
[11:40] <Jordan_U> walls, Easiest thing to do would be to boot from the CD and use the "check CD integrity" option
[11:40] <sixtyeight> Here's an odd question: Is there a way to stop "Alt+left mouse click" from grabbing a window and moving it?
[11:40] <Kraftwerk112> Somehow DVD's don't mount anymore in 7.04
[11:40] <Seoke> I'm getting ImportError: No module named gtk when I try to update to 7.04
[11:41] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : well, boot up failsafe, and edit /etc/X/xorg.conf
[11:41] <Jordan_U> mwe, What would yo call the "check CD integrity" option?
[11:41] <Seoke> sixtyeight, Administration->Mouse
[11:41] <bad_cables> how do i get more apps to install in synaptic... i need a list of more sources for my sources.lst
[11:41] <blind> while using x11vnc, people that connect to me can only see in 16-bit color.... how can i fix this?
[11:41] <walls> yer but i just wanted to clarify officially that u cd also cksum the cd after u burn it cos there is an md5sum txt file on there
[11:41] <bad_cables> when i look for apps to install, they arent there
[11:41] <mwe> Jordan_U: well in that case I'm not up to date. sorry
[11:41] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : even if you had a gui, you still have to get to the command line
[11:41] <walls> jordan im right yer?
[11:41] <velko> Kraftwerk112, does the corresponding line in /etc/fstab contain the word "udf" or just "iso9660"?
[11:41] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, what do i need to edit?
[11:42] <mwe> Jordan_U: there was no such option last I booted an ubuntu cd
[11:42] <Jordan_U> bad_cables, You don't want to just go adding random repositories to your sources.list, that is a good way to screw up your machine
[11:42] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, im looking at my xorg.conf, what do i need to change
[11:42] <Seoke> I'm getting ImportError: No module named gtk when I try to update to 7.04 any ideas what it might be?
[11:42] <Gnontghol> Ubuntu fails to find the firmware of a driver at boot when the driver is compiled in the kernel (not as a module). I have tryed to copy it into the initrd but I get the same errors: File not found.

[11:53] <MattJ> IdleOne, maybe Edubuntu
[11:53] <PriceChild> timewriter, is it an "always on", or does it require using the software on your windows machine to connect?
[11:53] <timewriter> tv cable
[11:53] <Jordan_U> IdleOne, Sort of, there is Edubuntu
[11:53] <timewriter> always on
[11:53] <PriceChild> timewriter, it will work fine.
[11:53] <Ia2> MattJ, yes I have an ATI card, and had to enable the restricted driver
[11:53] <walls> ne luck Jordan_U?
[11:53] <hamzzz> yes jordan_U but it hardly connects
[11:53] <PriceChild> timewriter, don't worry :)
[11:53] <thebigham> how come when a new window is opened, it stays behind the current, how can i bring it to the front by default??
[11:53] <PriceChild> timewriter, use the live cd to check though ;)
[11:53] <PriceChild> thebigham, using beryl?
[11:53] <thebigham> yea
[11:53] <IdleOne> ty MattJ and Jordan_U  I'll check it out
[11:53] <MattJ> Ia2, aha, that could be the problem (I had the same one)

[11:54] <timewriter> to check what ?
[11:54] <thebigham> and also how i install the themes i downloaded from beryl website

[11:55] <timewriter> what is aolserver4 ?
[11:55] <Ia2> MattJ, Not sure if it's being used

[11:56] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : ya I know, what was the EE?
[11:57] <astro76> x89x, whatever you bookmark shows in Places
[11:57] <ryanakca> hmm.. are there any advantages at running amd64 over i386? (I know about some of the proprietary software not running, I can just set up a chroot for that.)
[11:57] <Jordan_U> walls, it's there, it's actually called "check CD for defects"
[11:57] <k31th> guys what do you do for IPODS in ubuntu
[11:57] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang "AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable"
[11:57] <MattJ> Ia2, well, it's a bit of a hack, but I disable it by enabling the Composite extension in xorg.conf (this will cause the driver to disable fast 3D support though)
[11:58] <Ia2> MattJ, ok I'll try that
