[12:02] <T-Connect> 2 errors
[12:02] <ladydoor> erUSUL: I believe that tor is one of those packages that *has* to be up-to-date, since it's all about anonymity and security. However, as I am not a user, if you are I will defer to your judgment.
[12:02] <winowerproblems> my users settings window won't appear all the way, it just shows the frame but there are no user names
[12:02] <winowerproblems> can somebody help me?
[12:02] <bruenig> T-Connect, it looks like the lock is there and you either aren't running it as sudo or have another package manager open
[12:03] <bruenig> T-Connect, you can always sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/lock, but generally that error means something and you should only run this command if you are sure it is wrong
[12:03] <T-Connect> Tell me how to do this. I will copy and paste onto my notes. Then I will restart Ubuntu and do it over.

[12:04] <bruenig> obf213, when you do exaile --help, you will see that they have assigned commands to different actions, the best way to do it is to install xbindkeys and then configure it such that when you press your multimedia buttons, it will run those commands
[12:04] <johnnowak> hello there. if there's anyone who might be able to help me with my problem, i'd very much appreciate it. i'm on 7.04 amd64, and i've installed the nvidia driver. i can get my native resolution (1440x900) with the nv driver, but not with the nvidia driver.
[12:04] <johnnowak> i have already tried disabling edid and supplying a modeline. the refresh/sync ranges are correctly supplied.  does anyone have an idea on what else i can try?
[12:04] <erUSUL> ladydoor: i'm not a tor user but if there's some security problem with a package in ubuntu it gets updated (backporting the patch) or it should be that way
[12:05] <T-Connect> Heh same error
[12:05] <bruenig> obf213, I have done that on my laptop, it works very nice
[12:05] <T-Connect> sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/lock didn't help
[12:05] <obf213> bruenig thanks
[12:05] <n00dle> Anybody know anything about hibernate/resume?  It seems to have stopped functioning for me. (Feisty)

[12:06] <bruenig> obf213, xbindkeys-config gives a gui if you don't feel like editing a config file, it is ugly but works
[12:06] <erUSUL> n00dle: maybe you updated your kernel?
[12:06] <obf213> ok
[12:06] <squib> so, I'm getting the feeling I'm missing something about editing the available screen resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:06] <ladydoor> erUSUL: Fair enough.
[12:06] <obf213> so i just apt-get this xbind keys bruenig
[12:06] <johnnowak> is anyone here using the nvidia driver on amd64?
[12:06] <bruenig> obf213, xbindkeys and xbindkeys-config
[12:07] <winowerproblems> hello... so my users settings window comes up but shows no user names
[12:07] <zuzuzzzip> johnnowak: yes
[12:07] <squib> when I added an extra resolution to the list by manually editing the xorg.conf file, and restarted, I still don't have the option of the resolution I want, which is 1680 x 1050
[12:07] <x_> erUSUL ... that's too much .. i can find out .. can u help me ?!
[12:07] <bruenig> obf213, you will need to launch xbindkeys-config from the command line as it has no menu entry
[12:07] <Jac|Test> o.o
[12:07] <Jac|Test> ok

[12:09] <erUSUL> n00dle: dunno sorry :( have you see something in the logs that can help debug the cause?
[12:09] <Jac|Test> :\
[12:09] <Jac|Test> should i just try again
[12:09] <johnnowak> zuzuzzzip: what about xorg.conf?
[12:09] <erUSUL> x_: what's the problem?

[12:11] <johnnowak> zuzuzzzip: i've specified a modeline, set refresh/sync rates, disabled edid, and so on. the log file says my supplied mode is not valid, but it definitely is. (and yes, I've been googling for two days now.)
[12:11] <bruenig> obf213, run xbindkeys by itself, I think the first time it runs, it asks you to do a particular command in order to generate the config file, run the command it tells you

[12:17] <Jac|Test> hm

[12:18] <akari> ailean: card-independent, if the card is capable of using the resolution you can put it in xorg.conf... I did that with 1440x900 and then it was available in Ubuntu
[12:18] <n00dle> erUSUL, Think I found it... it has given me two different failure modes: either it bounces back awake with "DBUS timed out, but recovering / Resuming computer" or it does shut down but reboots as if it were shut down rather than hibernated. (Haven't found that log entry yet)

[12:19] <erUSUL> x_: use the nvidia-settings utility you just run to set the desired resolution
[12:19] <ikonia> T-Connect: what do you want me to do with that ?
[12:19] <bruenig> obf213, I don't know, I had to script volume buttons and whatnot to get it working, if you know what you are doing well enough you can get everything working with xbindkeys, it is just a bit manual
[12:19] <T-Connect> How I install the shit
[12:19] <ikonia> T-Connect: drop the attitude and language
[12:19] <ladydoor> Nembie563: Okay, the first step is to open up your sources.list in a text editor. sources.list is a file that tells your installer where to find files in the internet.
[12:19] <PriceChild> T-Connect, for the last time, please stop swearing.
[12:19] <squeeg> burn the iso to a CD and reboot your system with boot from CD enabled
[12:19] <T-Connect> Help me then.
[12:20] <squeeg> ya, that too
[12:20] <ailean> T-Connect: stop it please

[12:20] <squeeg> sigh, there are other ppl here besides you dude
[12:20] <T-Connect> I don't know what I'm doing

[12:24] <skulrid> i installed UBUNTU and it gave me a dual boot menu. now I just formated and reeinstalled windows xp partition but it boots directly to windows. how do I get the dual boot menu to go back to UBUNTU??
[12:24] <PriceChild> T-Connect, wait... you're not doing this from source... they even have an ubuntu repository?
[12:24] <erUSUL> !grub | skulrid
[12:24] <ubotu> skulrid: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:24] <ailean> can anyone tell me the name of the driver that ati cards use so that i can specify in xorg.conf?
[12:25] <skulrid> [erUSUL] : thank you
[12:25] <Nembie563> ladydoor: where is the sources.list stored?
[12:25] <squeeg> Are there any KNOWN issues with the Live CD>?
[12:25] <squeeg> I remember there being issues with esgy
[12:25] <squeeg> *edgy
[12:25] <T-Connect> * Debian Etch (stable), Ubuntu: deb http://debian.ettin.org/allacrost etch-backports main
[12:25] <stuart-> has anyone tried installing xubuntu without burning the .iso before? i'm stuck on the 2nd step
[12:25] <erUSUL> skulrid: no problem
[12:25] <ladydoor> Nembie563: it's in the directory /etc/apt. just run the command "sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list" (without the quotes) in a terminal to open a text editor on it.
[12:26] <juano__> jrib: im back
[12:26] <T-Connect> Heh forget me paste that. Read here. http://www.allacrost.org/?q=node/3
[12:26] <ailean> easy question guys - I cant look it up because i have no browser atm.  can anyone tell me the name of the driver that ati cards use so that i can specify in xorg.conf?
[12:26] <PriceChild> T-Connect, it instucts you to add that line to your sources.list (btw I do not condone this as this is debian etch built packages, not ubuntu. Do so at your own risk)
[12:26] <juano__> jrib: well no luck at all i guess, still same problem, same deal, im still searching for something cause i dont want to format and reinstall again
[12:26] <txos> Has anyone had any luck with installing a windows ODBC connector in wine?
[12:26] <akari> ailean: In case it helps, here is the BinaryDriverHowto page about ATI drivershttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[12:26] <T-Connect> Your telling me that game will nott insall on Ubuntu
[12:26] <squeeg> starts with a "C"
[12:26] <ladydoor> Nembie563: just let me know when you're there.
[12:26] <juano__> help, i installed the nvidia binary from nvidia.com, now im having big conflicts, anyone know what to do with this issue ?
[12:26] <squeeg> "Catalyst" - ati driver
[12:27] <PriceChild> T-Connect, it will, easily
[12:27] <T-Connect> Not easy
[12:27] <ailean> akari: unfortunately i can't look it up
[12:27] <memo_> hi
[12:27] <T-Connect> I try it fell with 2 errors
[12:27] <PriceChild> T-Connect, but those packages are built for debian, and not ubuntu so i'm telling you its at your own risk (even though they should be fine and personally i'd do it)
[12:27] <ailean> it's an Mobility Radeon ATI X1300
[12:27] <[itrebal] > is there a way to have Ubuntu (installed on a laptop) automatily enable ath0 and disable eth0?
[12:27] <T-Connect> You telling me that.
[12:27] <akari> ailean: sudo apt-get install lynx
[12:27] <PriceChild> T-Connect, what have you tried? Have you managed to add it to your sources.list?
[12:27] <T-Connect> Like that helps
[12:27] <akari> ailean: Text mode browser
[12:28] <ikonia> T-Connect: you don't want to hear the truth so don't ask
[12:28] <juano__> is there a way to fix the nvidia installation on feisty fawn after installing the binary nvidia package from nvidia.com ???
[12:28] <Sonic1> When I run avant window manager, there is large black strip going along the bottom of the screen
[12:28] <ailean> akari: ok, but i need to log out of this and back in again each time.  Surely someone has an ati card installed
[12:28] <T-Connect> I GIVE UP!
[12:28] <ikonia> T-Connect: probably for the best
[12:28] <T-Connect> Not wroth it then
[12:28] <T-Connect> Game will not install on 7.04
[12:28] <T-Connect> Ever!
[12:28] <ikonia> T-Connect: the forums suggest other wise
[12:28] <akari> ailean: Perhaps it's a non-ATI chipset in that notebook?
[12:29] <juano__> ikonia: hi sup
[12:29] <in10city> juano___ I used automatix to install my nvidia driver it worked like a charm
[12:29] <ikonia> juano__: hey
[12:29] <PriceChild> !automatix | in10city
[12:29] <ubotu> in10city: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:29] <T-Connect> I will reinstall Ubuntu.
[12:29] <PriceChild> T-Connect, if you are not looking for more support then please stop spamming the channel with useless lines. :)
[12:29] <juano__> in10city: yep, i should of installed nvidia with apt-get
[12:29] <Bleed> What's the bash command to copy text to your clipboard?
[12:29] <juano__> in10city: but now im searching for a fix
[12:29] <ailean> akari: i have no idea how i would know that :)
[12:29] <Bleed> Anyone know?
[12:29] <squeeg> any thoughts on the install freezing after the kernel load?
[12:29] <ailean> Bleed: cp
[12:29] <T-Connect> You don't care.
[12:29] <ikonia> Bleed: there isn't a bash command
[12:29] <akari> ailean: That's a vendor secret >.<
[12:29] <juano__> ikonia: im troublin with nvidia drivers on feisty fawn

[12:30] <juano__> ikonia: i ***ed up and installed nvidia.com binary
[12:30] <Bleed> *i though
[12:30] <juano__> ikonia: i should of installed apt-get
[12:30] <ikonia> juano__: why are you installing a bianry and not the nvidia-glx package
[12:30] <skulrid> [erUSUL] : is it possible to recover de GRUB with the recovery mode?
[12:30] <juano__> ikonia: because i am a dork lol
[12:30] <skulrid> [erUSUL] : is it possible to recover de GRUB with the rescue mode?
[12:30] <ikonia> skulrid: yup
[12:30] <juano__> ikonia: but i want to fix it, is this possible ?
[12:30] <skulrid> nice, thnks
[12:30] <ikonia> juano__: remove the binary and install the nvidia-glx package
[12:30] <juano__> ikonia: yep i tried that

[12:31] <ikonia> juano__:
[12:31] <ikonia> juano__:  should be fine
[12:31] <ikonia> Bleed: no
[12:31] <juano__> ikonia: but it seems that if i change the driver to nvidia in the xorg.conf insstead of nv x wont start
[12:31] <T-Connect> I will not listin to any of no helper ever again.
[12:31] <juano__> ikonia: cant put nvidia in there
[12:31] <ikonia> T-Connect: ok - thats great
[12:31] <juano__> ikonia: it wont start
[12:31] <conorkirkpatrick> Has anybody gottn Halo Trial to work under Wine?
[12:31] <ikonia> juano__: is the nvidia module loaded (lsmod)
[12:31] <Bleed> Are there any apps that let you copy text to the clipboard? >.<
[12:31] <akari> juano__: If there are problems with nvidia-glx you can try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new it's a newer version of the driver
[12:31] <CppIsWeird> i am getting a window when i boot up that says error activating XKB configuration. This started why i attempted to add a language to my keyboard, which i've since removed, and it never took anyways.
[12:31] <Bleed> throught the command line?
[12:32] <ikonia> Bleed: no
[12:32] <ikonia> Bleed: an application has a clip board, not the os
[12:32] <T-Connect> ikonia you don't know how to install that game. So but out.
[12:32] <juano__> ikonia: nvidia               6837140  0
[12:32] <juano__> agpgart                35400  2 nvidia,via_agp

[12:32] <akari> Anyone else purposedly ignoring T-Connect because of bad attitude and bad language?
[12:32] <ikonia> juano__: that looks ok
[12:32] <ikonia> akari I'm about to
[12:32] <Bleed> ikonia: that makes no sense?  How do you transmit data from one application to the next if the OS doesn't have a clipboard?
[12:32] <juano__> akari: yea, i will try i guess, i havent tried that
[12:32] <ikonia> Bleed: use xwindows
[12:33] <akari> ikonia: You already deserve a honor medal for staying on topic for so long
[12:33] <CppIsWeird> i am getting a window when i boot up that says error activating XKB configuration. This started why i attempted to add a language to my keyboard, which i've since removed, and it never took anyways.
[12:33] <akari> ikonia: I have anger management issues... >.<
[12:33] <juano__> ikonia: i might be missing something in my xorg.conf
[12:33] <ikonia> akari:  its all fine
[12:33] <juano__> ikonia: dont know what
[12:33] <ladydoor> Nembie563: welcome back. The first thing to do is go to the line that says "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted" and add "universe" (without the quotes) at the end of it.
[12:33] <ikonia> juano__: put the error in a pastebin
[12:33] <ikonia> from xorg log
[12:33] <Bleed> !find xwindows
[12:34] <juano__> ikonia: sure i got it saved sec
[12:34] <ikonia> Bleed: gnome
[12:34] <ubotu> Package/file xwindows does not exist in feisty
[12:34] <Bleed> gnome what?
[12:34] <ikonia> Bleed: the gnome desktop
[12:34] <CppIsWeird> i am getting a window when i boot up that says error activating XKB configuration. This started why i attempted to add a language to my keyboard, which i've since removed, and it never took anyways.
[12:34] <ladydoor> Nembie563: then add the lines that the website says to add (the line that starts with deb and the line that starts with deb-src)
[12:34] <ladydoor> Nembie563: Let me know when you're done.
[12:34] <spy80us> lsusb does not detect my Zen vison m (mp3 player) any help?
[12:34] <Simo1> Hello. I hav installed bluetooth headset manager and whant to send stereo music to my bluetooth headset. I can connect the headset manager program to the headset but not make the sound go through there... Can someone help me? I guess I need to configure A2DP too for stereo sound, but just being able to use it as f.ex. a skype headset would be a great start
[12:34] <Bleed> Do you know if it's possible to set the gnome clipboard then? =p
[12:35] <ikonia> Bleed: its allready setup
[12:35] <ikonia> just cut and paste
[12:35] <Bleed> I mean
[12:35] <Bleed> I'm writing a bash script
[12:35] <stuart-> why do i get a "mount: could not find any device /dev/loop#" error when i try to mount -o loop a file to a dir?

[12:35] <txos> Does anyone have any experience with installing a Windows/MySQL ODBC connector in Wine?
[12:35] <juano__> ikonia: i know you are going to ocme up with something
[12:35] <ikonia> Bleed: you don't output to the clipboard
[12:35] <juano__> come*
[12:35] <ikonia> Bleed: just highlight the text
[12:35] <Bleed> It's a script
[12:35] <ikonia> and then use the middle mouse to paste
[12:36] <Bleed> lol
[12:36] <ikonia> Bleed: you can't output to the clipboard
[12:36] <juano__> ikonia: check out line 341 and so on
[12:36] <Bleed> I don't see why something that simple isn't implemented.
[12:36] <Bleed> It has to be.
[12:36] <CppIsWeird> i am getting a window when i boot up that says error activating XKB configuration. This started why i attempted to add a language to my keyboard, which i've since removed, and it never took anyways.
[12:36] <thoreauputic> stuart-: odd - try  sudo modprobe loop
[12:36] <ikonia> Bleed: no OS can do that
[12:36] <Bleed> lol yes they can, you can set text to the clipboard.
[12:36] <Bleed> through code in windows
[12:36] <Bleed> I'm sure it's available in linux.
[12:36] <Simo1> someone can help me with bluetooth headset please?
[12:37] <squeeg> My install is hanging immediately after the kernel loads - can anyone here help me with this?
[12:37] <ikonia> Bleed: there is no clipboard device
[12:37] <squeeg> no error, it just hangs
[12:37] <ikonia> juano__: can you show me the pastebin url please, I missed it
[12:37] <juano__> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30497/
[12:37] <T-Doomday> Ok I will reinstall Ubuntu. Sorry.

[12:38] <thoreauputic> stuart-: try your mount again
[12:38] <ikonia> juano__: looking
[12:39] <juano__> ikonia: k
[12:39] <stuart-> thoreauputic: cool. works. what did modprobe do?

[12:40] <Simo1> is there anyone in here that can help me make my bluetooth headset work. all the how-tos have failed me
[12:41] <ikonia> juano__: looks like you've not cleaned up the old nvidia driver - or your card is not supported

[12:41] <stuart-> hm.. probably cos i'm on an old distro
[12:41] <stuart-> okay now i'm stuck on the third step.
[12:41] <myusrnm> guys, I am running ubuntu 6.10 and was wondering if i could partition my hard drive right now
[12:41] <stuart-> I get "mount: you must specify the filesystem type" when i try to mount /mnt/hd2 /mnt/installer
[12:41] <ikonia> myusrnm: yeah no problem
[12:41] <memo_> I just install ubuntu..and all the partitions are show at desktop..how i can remove them of there?
[12:42] <PriceChild> myusrnm, you can't edit mounted drives... like your / So you'd need to use a live cd perhaps?
[12:42] <ladydoor> Nembie563: okay. open a terminal and do "sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list"
[12:42] <PriceChild> memo_, alt+f2 then start "gconf-editor"
[12:42] <ladydoor> Nembie563: then paste the contents of that file to pastebin and send me the link to that page.
[12:42] <PriceChild> memo_, browse to apps > nautilus > desktop, then uncheck "show mounted volumes"
[12:42] <myusrnm> so, i have a live cd of ubuntu
[12:42] <myusrnm> so, could i shut down
[12:43] <myusrnm> boot from cd
[12:43] <PriceChild> memo_, might be "volumes visible"... but you get the idea :)
[12:43] <myusrnm> and then try to partition
[12:43] <juano__> ikonia: mm yea
[12:43] <juano__> ikonia: well im trying something now
[12:43] <juano__> ikonia: brb
[12:43] <PriceChild> myusrnm, yeah, start up the live cd environment then start gparted
[12:43] <thoreauputic> stuart-: re: loop - to get the module loaded on boot, put it in /etc/modules - just "loop" on a line by itself
[12:43] <x_> how i can install Flash Plugin on linux ?!
[12:43] <jrib> !flash > x_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:43] <myusrnm> and will i be able to install windows xp on that partition?
[12:44] <mneptok> bah
[12:44] <x_> jrib .. i have no idea what u talking about !!!
[12:44] <stuart-> thoreauputic: don't worry. it wont' last long. these steps are for installing a new distro anyways
[12:44] <PriceChild> myusrnm, yes, but you'll need to "/msg ubotu fixgrub" to find out how to recover ubuntu's boot loader
[12:44] <crysalys> is there any way to compile a ubuntu install with all the updates and codecs included?
[12:44] <Nembie563> ladybird: alright I ran the command here is what came up http://pastebin.com/m21e4118f just out of curiousity what did I just do?
[12:44] <thoreauputic> stuart-: ah OK
[12:44] <stuart-> just need to get through this painful linux pure .iso installation
[12:44] <jrib> x_: don't worry, that's just special code so ubotu can send you a private message.  Do you see it?
[12:44] <x_> jrib ... nope

[12:46] <ladydoor> Nembie563: I'm ladydoor, actually. When you say "what did I just do," are you referring to the past or the command I gave you?
[12:46] <PriceChild> memo_, but if i disappear, or don't know the answer, you don't have to repeat it to others :)
[12:46] <power220> how i can install clam av on ubuntu server
[12:46] <crysalys> anyone know if you can recompile after updates and and codecs are installed?
[12:46] <PriceChild> memo_, just use my name when you address me and i won't miss it :)
[12:46] <memo_> oh...youre right!
[12:46] <jrib> x_: ok either on the sidebar or at the bottom you should see something that says "ubotu"
[12:47] <x_> HeaDSHot .. i did .. i donno which one should download it and how install it from my desktop
[12:47] <power220> how i can install clam av on ubuntu server
[12:47] <power220> how i can install clam av on ubuntu server
[12:47] <power220> how i can install clam av on ubuntu server
[12:47] <memo_> how i use your name?
[12:47] <Compressed> ..
[12:47] <ikonia> power220: by not spamming the channel
[12:47] <LususX_> apt-get
[12:47] <Nembie563> Ladydoor: whoops, sorry, I realized that as soon as I hit send. Yeah, what did the last command do and what do I do next?
[12:47] <jrib> !repeat | power220
[12:47] <ubotu> power220: 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
[12:47] <Compressed> haha
[12:47] <Compressed> !patience
[12:47] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:47] <x_> jrib .. yeah ... just a min .. go check it
[12:47] <memo_> Pricechilp- i must write your name?..
[12:47] <HeaDSHoT> x_ it will say in a little tab install required plugins click on there and it will install and restart firefox
[12:47] <power220> sorry
[12:47] <crysalys> anyone? anyone at all?
[12:48] <PriceChild> memo_, type "pri" then press the <tab> key, and it autocompletes ;)
[12:48] <ladydoor> Nembie563: nano is a simple text editor, so you've opened up the file /etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor. the -w flag tells it not to "wrap" really long lines, which could mess things up here. And pasting to that site just let me see it.
[12:48] <jrib> !please > crysalys (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:48] <ladydoor> Nembie563: What you do next is to go to the first line that doesn't start with a # but that does have text on it. It should start with "deb"
[12:48] <memo_> PriceChild: lol...thx
[12:49] <stuart-> okay so i edited grub to boot from my 2nd HD
[12:49] <x_> HeaDSHot .. nope ... says download it ... and wichone i need ?!  .tar   or    .gz   or    rpm  ... or   yum   ?!
[12:49] <akari> power220: Not spamming is a good start
[12:49] <skulfire> im trying to recover the GURB but my new ubuntu CD is old the only thing he gives me first is "press enter to boot" ou "server and ENTER" what shall I do?
[12:49] <fujin_> anyone had any joy with getting an intel 4965AGN card working with ubuntu?
[12:49] <memo_> like terminal
[12:49] <PriceChild> memo_, anyway back to the real problem :)
[12:49] <stuart-> is it supposed to be HD1, N-1 ?
[12:49] <ladydoor> Nembie563: Go to the end of that line and add the word "universe" (without the quotes) after the word "restricted." Do the same thing on the next line (which begins with deb-src).
[12:49] <akari> power 220: sudo apt-get install clamav
[12:49] <memo_> PriceChild: ok
[12:49] <crysalys> sorry everyone. i was unaware.
[12:49] <ladydoor> Nembie563: What that does is tells apt, the package management program, about a bunch of useful packages it didn't know about before.
[12:49] <angel> is it possible to make a partition on my current disk that already has a install linux OS
[12:49] <LususX_> power220: try sudo apt-get install clamav
[12:49] <travist120> I'm having problems with my kernel, I installed SMP kernel, and it says I still only running 1 processor instead of 2
[12:49] <stuart-> as in root (hd1, N-1) ?
[12:50] <jrib> !ubotu > HeaDSHoT (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:50] <memo_> PriceChild: i just reinstall linux...before that, the mounted partitionc was under /mnt/ etc...and now are under /media/ etc..
[12:50] <x_> jrib .. it talking about  Konqueror     what the hell is that ?!!?!?!?!?!
[12:50] <stuart-> did i specify the right location if i were to direct grub to my /dev/hdb1 partitino
[12:50] <erUSUL> travist120: can you paste /proc/cpuinfo in a pastebin?
[12:50] <travist120> ok
[12:50] <akari> x_: Konqueror is the default KDE file manager
[12:50] <erUSUL> !paste | travist120
[12:50] <ubotu> travist120: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:50] <PriceChild> memo_, ubuntu defaults to /media/ if you did it manually, or other distributions might have gone into /mnt
[12:50] <ladydoor> Nembie563: let me know when you're done there.
[12:50] <x_> akari   ahan ... thanks :)
[12:51] <jrib> x_: ignore the part about konqueror.  The important part is you need to enable the multiverse repository and then install the "flashplugin-nonfree" package using your favorite package manager
[12:51] <adrian> hi
[12:51] <angel> is it possible?
[12:51] <crysalys> ill aske again later

[12:51] <adrian> how can i change the key associations of the ir_common module
[12:51] <adrian> ?
[12:51] <erUSUL> x_: no problem ;)
[12:51] <stuart-> do I point grub to root (hd1, N-1) if i want it to boot from my /dev/hdb1 partition*?
[12:51] <angel> i have an 80gb hard disk installed with ubuntu then right now i want to make a partition is it possible?

[12:52] <erUSUL> angel: you can use gparted and try to shrink some partition with enough free space and create a new one
[12:52] <erUSUL> !gparted | angel
[12:52] <ubotu> angel: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[12:52] <PriceChild> memo_, yes... if they're normally mounted at boot
[12:52] <adrian> how can i change the key associations of the ir_common module?

[12:59] <ladydoor> Nembie563: I meant to put it into the actual file you were editing, not into the web browser. Sorry to confuse you.
[12:59] <kpax> i went system and then time and date.
[12:59] <ladydoor> Nembie563: And what that does is to tell apt, the package manager, about a bunch of stuff it didn't know about before.
[12:59] <adrian> how can i change the key associations of the ir_common module?
[12:59] <kpax> it won't auto with timereserves

[01:01] <erUSUL> !virtualizers | nj786
[01:01] <DjViper> nj786: you need vmware or xen
[01:01] <ubotu> nj786: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[01:01] <skulfire> akari windows XP install
[01:01] <adrian> skulfire: run a live cd with grub utility (Ubuntu for example)
[01:01] <ladydoor> Nembie563: so once you've done that in the text editor you opened up, the next step is to copy/paste in the lines starting with "deb" and "deb-src" from the website you told me about.
[01:01] <erUSUL> travist120: which version of ubuntu are you running?
[01:01] <adrian> and then:
[01:01] <obf213> is there some special command you have to type in to get gparted to work. not like sudo to open it. but liek non of the options are available.
[01:01] <akari> skulfire: Ouch ^^
[01:01] <aricz> Hi, anyone here experienced with 'cddbcmd' ? How do I retrieve the info from a audio-CD that 'cddbcmd discid <ntrks> <off_1> <off_2> <...> <off_n> <nsecs>" .. :)

[01:03] <sidene1> my wireless network card is picking up the signal, but i can't get on my network
[01:03] <travist120> no, because I opened up my system monitor and it showed only one cpu working
[01:03] <travist120> @eURSUL
[01:03] <adrian> where x is the number of your hard disk starting with 0 (example first disk hd0) and y is the number of the partition where the original system was (again the 0 thing)
[01:03] <barbarella> travist120:you mean the second cpu...not kernel!
[01:03] <erUSUL> travist120: can you post your dmesg to a pastebin?
[01:03] <travist120> what's the command for that?
[01:03] <skulfire> adrian where do I type that?

[01:08] <sevilnatas> I am on a 233mhz laptop running DSLinux. I also have it on my PSP.
[01:08] <sidene1> my machine is dual boot
[01:09] <kitche> obf213: not with nautilius since it's not a browser at least from what I understand
[01:09] <awsoonn> Sidenel: try switching to WPA encryption, that worked for me.

[01:10] <DjViper> sidene1: in console: iwlist <your eth> scan
[01:10] <scorp123> tarzeau: I am asking because I thought with journalling and all that it would really be necessary anymore?

[01:10] <adrian> mmm
[01:10] <Jac|Test> Ok
[01:10] <Jac|Test> I'm trying to fix Grub
[01:10] <sidene1> hold on
[01:10] <rizla420> I guess there is a kismet channel
[01:10] <sidene1> i'm on my laptop
[01:11] <adrian> someone has a HVR-1110 tv card running in ubuntu?
[01:11] <rizla420> but no one seems ot be in there
[01:11] <Jac|Test> but when i put in the Live Disk, which option do i choose?
[01:11] <rizla420> anyone here use kismet?
[01:11] <travist120> Ok, I'm going to reboot, and use generic kernel
[01:11] <travist120> see if I'm getting the same errror
[01:11] <Jac|Test> When i click "Start or install" it just brings up the demo
[01:11] <C-{pR0F> how can i extract the files that are in an ISO file ???
[01:11] <scorp123> tarzeau: I know ... but I wonder if it's really needed. Right now it's checking my 500 GB drive and it takes forever ... :-/
[01:11] <Jac|Test> i need to get INTO Ubuntu
[01:11] <spartan777_> anyone know of a good program to convert any video file to be burnt to DVD?
[01:11] <scorp123> tarzeau: I am talking about an auto-fsck every 30 reboots or so.
[01:11] <IntuitiveNipple> C-{pR0F: mount the iso on the loop filesystem
[01:11] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: loop mount the ISO then copy the files from the mount point
[01:11] <sidene1> it picks up my network
[01:12] <spartan777_> unfortunately i don't have a divx player
[01:12] <Jac|Test> How do i boot into MY ubuntu, not the demo
[01:12] <C-{pR0F> IntuitiveNipple: can u tell me how ,,, where to mount it
[01:12] <Jac|Test> from the disk
[01:12] <tarzeau> scorp123: yes i know
[01:12] <IntuitiveNipple> C-{pR0F: something like " sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 gutsy-desktop-i386-tribe-3.iso /media/iso"
[01:12] <tarzeau> scorp123: don't reboot that often :)
[01:12] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F:  mkdir loop ; mount -o loop foo.iso
[01:12] <sidene1> djviper- it picked up my network and gave me all the details
[01:12] <Jac|Test> anyone, how do i boot into MY ubuntu, not the demo, from the disk
[01:12] <scorp123> tarzeau: oh well it's my home machine .... I turn it off over the night or else my wife will go crazy
[01:13] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: umm mount -o loop foo.iso loop
[01:13] <DjViper> sidene1: what exactly happens if you try to connect?
[01:13] <Jac|Test> if i click "Boot from first disk" is starts Windows
[01:13] <Jac|Test> if i click "Start or install" it starts the demo
[01:13] <sidene1> i click on my network, it asks for passphrase, i enter, hit login
[01:13] <sidene1> and it just cycles in the system tray, then times out i guess
[01:13] <AncientPC> hey guys, I have a couple questions about sed/regexp
[01:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Jac|Test: If you've installed Ubuntu, simply remove the CD so it isn't used
[01:14] <DjViper> sidene1: hm using network manager?
[01:14] <Jac|Test> IntuitiveNipple, i can't boot from windows
[01:14] <C-{pR0F> thoreauputic: i get this can't find /home/linux/Desktop/D/maya/SAGITARIUS_L32.iso in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[01:14] <AncientPC> say I wanted to grab the last minute's load time with: w | sed -e 's/.*, //g'
[01:14] <phosphene> !flash64
[01:14] <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
[01:14] <Jac|Test> because i installed Ubuntu THEN windows it deleted grub
[01:14] <DjViper> nm-applet
[01:14] <sidene1> oh good call
[01:14] <Jac|Test> i know how to fix it, i just can't get in
[01:14] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: sorry my error - you need the directory specified
[01:14] <sidene1> i'll install and see how it goes
[01:14] <DjViper> sidene1: can you try and turn off the encryption?
[01:15] <barbarella> spartan777:mencoder
[01:15] <sidene1> ok
[01:15] <AncientPC> 1) Is that the easiest way to delete everything before a string?  Is there anything like trim / first / last with sed?
[01:15] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: like  sudo mount -o loop foo.iso mountpoint/
[01:15] <sidene1> lemme try to install the manager first
[01:15] <Jac|Test> IntuitiveNipple, any suggestions?
[01:15] <AncientPC> 2) How do I remove all other lines that are generated from w?
[01:15] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: then the files shoul appear in mountpoint/
[01:15] <thoreauputic> *should
[01:15] <sidene1> djviper, can i pm you later?
[01:15] <Jac|Test> I could re-install Ubuntu
[01:15] <DjViper> sidene1: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:15] <DjViper> sidene1: yes
[01:15] <Prometheus> is there a way to run some app on some other language than default?
[01:15] <Jac|Test> would that fix everything?
[01:15] <sidene1> 7.04
[01:16] <DjViper> sidene1: nm-applet should be included then
[01:16] <Jac|Test> so many questions....
[01:16] <Jac|Test> my mind's gunna asplode
[01:16] <travist120> ok, I rebooted eUSURL, I used the generic kernel that Ubuntu had came with, and what do you know it works!
[01:16] <sidene1> for the ndiswrapper?
[01:16] <C-{pR0F> thoreauputic: thankx , that worked
[01:16] <DjViper> Jac|Test: get used to it :P
[01:16] <thoreauputic> C-{pR0F: no worries :)
[01:16] <DjViper> sidene1: no, with ubuntu
[01:17] <C-{pR0F> ubuntu support is the Best :)
[01:17] <awsoonn> Hi all! Has anyone had any luck running runescape wiht 7.04AMD64?
[01:17] <sidene1> it wasn't working with the default driver
[01:17] <gordonjcp> AncientPC: possibly awk
[01:17] <sidene1> wasn't even picking up a signal
[01:17] <erUSUL> travist120: XD i checked the /boot/config-2.6.20-16-generic file and it has NR_CPU=8 ...
[01:17] <DjViper> sidene1: okay, did you blacklist the old driver?
[01:17] <stuart_> oh no, i can't apt-get anything from warty
[01:17] <travist120> lol, what does that mean erUSUL?
[01:17] <sidene1> yes
[01:17] <DjViper> sidene1: okay
[01:17] <stuart_> how would i get gparted
[01:18] <stuart_> because i need it to install from pure .iso
[01:18] <kitche> stuart_: well anything below dapper is no longer supported
[01:18] <sidene1> i used this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[01:18] <erUSUL> travist120: that it supports up to 8 cores without reaching the limit
[01:18] <stuart_> dang.. is there anyway i can partition my HD then
[01:18] <morgan> sidene1: turn off all encryption, and sit right next to your router and try and connect. it is just wireless g im assuming?
[01:18] <sidene1> yes
[01:18] <tamale> anyone willing to help me get my feisty install disc working?
[01:19] <tamale> as it is i X won't start so i can't install
[01:19] <sidene1> morgan, it's a desktop
[01:19] <adrian> bye
[01:19] <awsoonn> Does anyone play runescape on x64 Ubuntu? IM me PLEASE.
[01:19] <travist120> erUSURL: well I was using that kernel before, and it wasn't detecting my dual core, but now that I am using generic-15 it's detecting it again
[01:19] <travist120> Might I have a faulty kernel?
[01:19] <sparr> my firefox closes at random when it loses focus.  help?
[01:19] <morgan> ahh i see, how close to you are it? what brand is the router?
[01:19] <sidene1> linksys
[01:20] <erUSUL> travist120: dunno iirc the last update it's 2.6.20-16
[01:20] <sidene1> 83% signal strength
[01:20] <phosphene> !flash64
[01:20] <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
[01:20] <travist120> yeah, I know that. I updated to that as soon as I finished instaling Ubuntu, but I didn't notice that it wasn't using both cores
[01:20] <morgan> gah, i hate linksys. How far away from the router are you?
[01:20] <travist120> so I tried SMP
[01:20] <travist120> and no go
[01:20] <sidene1> pretty far
[01:21] <travist120> so how do I make GRUB boot into 15 generic every time?
[01:21] <biggahed> edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[01:21] <sidene1> a 50ft cable will not reach it
[01:22] <morgan> that might be it then, i'd say go to like staples or somewhere, grab a nice router, try that
[01:22] <biggahed> /boot/menu/menu.lst *
[01:22] <tamale> anyone willing to help me get my feisty install disc working?
[01:22] <tamale> as it is i X won't start so i can't install.. not even in the 'safe graphics mode'
[01:22] <skulrid> Im on rescue mode to get the GRUB back, where they tell me to choose the partition to mount, do I have to choose the UBUNTU partition or if I choose the partiton where XP is installed on it will make it the first on the menu list???
[01:22] <morgan> if it doesnt connect still, then you know it's something with the drivers or card
[01:22] <sidene1> it's working on my laptop
[01:22] <sidene1> i think it's the driver
[01:22] <morgan> hmm
[01:22] <morgan> that makes no sense
[01:22] <sidene1> i'm using the proper chipset
[01:22] <sidene1> my desktop is dual boot with winxp and it works fine on that os
[01:23] <morgan> i see
[01:23] <phosphene> !flash64
[01:23] <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
[01:23] <Simo1> please help. I have installed the bluetooth headset manager and heave a BT headset alsa mixer and everything but can't send the tound through the bluetooth. I would like this to work. can someone help me?
[01:23] <morgan> what's weird is that you can see the network, which means somethings working
[01:23] <skulrid> Im on rescue mode to get the GRUB back, where they tell me to choose the partition to mount, do I have to choose the UBUNTU partition or if I choose the partiton where XP is installed on it will make it the first on the menu list????
[01:24] <sidene1> but when i run "ndiswrapper -l" it says the driver is installed and device is present
[01:24] <sidene1> brb, gonna try something
[01:24] <morgan> im not too sure then
[01:24] <morgan> ok
[01:26] <morgan> ot
[01:26] <sidene1> hmmm
[01:26] <obf213> hey is there a reason all my partitons are locked on gparted
[01:26] <morgan> any luck?
[01:26] <obf213> i just resized some using partition magic on windows
[01:26] <Simo1> bluetooth help anyone?
[01:26] <kitche> obf213: you didn't run gparted with sudo?
[01:26] <sidene1> no, i'm gonna boot into windows to see if it still works
[01:27] <obf213> kitche...you cant open gparted with sudo.
[01:27] <obf213> but everything is locked
[01:27] <astro76> obf213, are they mounted?
[01:27] <morgan> alright, you might also want to try taking all the security off the network
[01:27] <skulrid> on partition MAGIC if my ubuntu is the 3rd one, it means I it is the sda 03 ??
[01:27] <sidene1> yea
[01:27] <sidene1> that's my next step
[01:27] <obf213> yeah. they are partitons.
[01:28] <obf213> its weird i cant even resize my linux partiton there is a lock by everythign there
[01:28] <astro76> obf213, they have to be unmounted (umount)
[01:28] <unagi> obf213 is the drive mounted?
[01:28] <skulrid> i need to choose a partition to mount and get the GRUB back but I dont know wich one it is.
[01:28] <obf213> unagi yeah they are...
[01:28] <barbarella> phosphene:nspluginwrapper
[01:28] <obf213> how do i unmount the linux partition if im using linux?
[01:28] <unagi> you have to unmount them to do anything to them
[01:28] <skulrid> on PARTITION MAIGC ubuntu partition id the third one, should I choose sda3 ?
[01:28] <unagi> live cd
[01:28] <sidene1> damn it
[01:28] <sidene1> it works with win xp pro, but not ubuntu
[01:28] <unagi> or the gparted boot disk obf213
[01:29] <obf213> uagi.. ok
[01:29] <unagi> !ohmy sidene1
[01:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy sidene1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:29] <Varsendaggr> hey i have sources...   and a make file hor do i compile it?
[01:29] <phosphene> !beryl
[01:29] <morgan> well then, that gets us a bit closer
[01:29] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:29] <sidene1> it has to be the driver
[01:29] <sidene1> i'll be back later, i'm gonna read up on it some more
[01:29] <morgan> kk pce
[01:29] <sidene1> thanks for the help
[01:30] <obf213> unagi.. when i right click unmount on my fat32 partition or windows one it says cant unmount
[01:30] <obf213> do i have to do some sudo or something unagi
[01:31] <morgan> not a problem
[01:31] <astro76> obf213, yes you need sudo
[01:31] <obf213> astro how do i do it. i did sudo umount sda5. and it just said not found
[01:32] <astro76> obf213, sudo unmount /media/mountpoint
[01:32] <obf213> ahh ok
[01:32] <astro76> whoops
[01:32] <astro76> umount, not unmount
[01:33] <stuart__> hm, what can i do since i can't apt-get gparted or a burning program to install a new version of linux
[01:34] <astro76> stuart_, hmm? what are you running now?
[01:34] <stuart__> astro76: warty
[01:35] <stuart__> i have feisty .iso now. but no empty cd's
[01:35] <stuart__> planned to do the pure .iso installation but couldn't
[01:35] <dissection> What is port 8701 for? I ran an online portscan and it said that port is open.
[01:35] <BORG> hello everyone are there anyone running 64bit verison of ubuntu
[01:36] <tarzeau> BORG: sparc or amd64?
[01:36] <astro76> dissection, http://askahacker.com/archives/2007/03/29/T17_22_47/index.html
[01:37] <Geminias> hi all, I want to build Linux from Scratch so I need to free up some space... How do I make my ubuntu partition smaller?
[01:37] <dissection> astro76: Saw that link already. I'm connected through a router though.
[01:39] <llllllll> Are logs kept of what's typed into the terminal? It's a security related question
[01:39] <PriceChild> llllllll, if you sudo yes... but not otherwise afaicr
[01:39] <llllllll> where?
[01:39] <aricz> what does "hdc: write_intr: wrong transfer direction!" mean? I get it when I copy audio-cd's ..
[01:39] <Creed> Geminias, you can use gparted (think have to apt-get install it first) or a third part tool such as partition magic or acronis disk director (both pay).
[01:40] <Geminias> gparted can resize my ext3 partition that i'm currently using right?
[01:40] <mrunagi> i just wanted to say i love linux
[01:40] <Creed> Geminias, Im not sure, might have to boot from a live cd
[01:40] <pushpop> why do you love linux
[01:40] <Creed> mrunagi, join the club :)
[01:40] <Geminias> (normally i'd just start playing around with commands but i did that once before regarding partitions and i lost all data lol)
[01:40] <mrunagi> geminias.....just use gparted
[01:40] <astro76> llllllll, there's ~/.bash_history
[01:40] <PriceChild> llllllll, /var/log/auth.log*
[01:40] <Creed> Geminias, gparted has a gui so its somewhat hard to mess up :)
[01:40] <mrunagi> geminias....you can shrink existing partitions to free up space
[01:41] <Geminias> ah okay
[01:41] <Geminias> i thought it was CL
[01:41] <mrunagi> but the drive has to be unmounted Geminias
[01:41] <Creed> nope, they made it easy for us :D
[01:41] <mrunagi> i like gparted...it makes stupid people like me feel smart
[01:41] <Geminias> how can i unmount it if ubuntu is in it?
[01:41] <Creed> lol
[01:41] <Creed> Geminias, cant, so youll have to use a live cd
[01:41] <llllllll> astro76, PriceChild: It sounds like usage tracks are spread all over the place. Is there a list of logs kept by Ubuntu, or just those two??
[01:41] <mrunagi> boot with the live cd
[01:41] <mrunagi> Geminias:
[01:41] <astro76> llllllll, I believe that's it
[01:42] <Geminias> darn
[01:42] <mrunagi> what
[01:42] <stuart__> okay i have the .iso converted into cd on my /dev/hdb1
[01:42] <PriceChild> llllllll, /var/log should contain all the system logs... but depending on user preferences there may be stuff in ~/.* as well
[01:42] <Geminias> i dont have a live cd with me
[01:42] <Geminias> im at work
[01:42] <retour> What e-mail client to install to preserve amazing speed of Xubuntu?
[01:42] <stuart__> how do i make grub boot from my /dev/hdb1 so i can install feisty
[01:42] <Geminias> and my connection sucks
[01:42] <BaD_CrC> is there a way to install a i686 based SMP kernel in feisty? it's currently defaulted to -generic
[01:42] <mrunagi> dl it?
[01:42] <kiba> hello
[01:42] <mrunagi> i wonder how big the gparted boot disk is
[01:42] <mrunagi> anyone know?
[01:43] <kiba> I can't seem to activiate beryl without getting getting broke
[01:43] <Creed> Geminias, grab a gparted disk, theyre around 20mb i believe
[01:43] <Creed> Geminias, theres even floppy versions and usb versions
[01:43] <stuart__> anyone know how i can set grub up so it boots from my second HD /dev/hdb1?
[01:43] <apallo> !ati
[01:43] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:43] <kiba> I brought a dell computer with ubuntu preinstalled
[01:43] <apallo> nice!
[01:43] <mrunagi> stuart__: you should be able to edit the text file to rearrange
[01:44] <kiba> it is a shame that some company decide not to open their driver's codebase
[01:44] <stuart__> mrunagi: what would the syntax be, root=(hd1,0)?
[01:44] <robo> can anyone tell me why I can install tar.gz files
[01:44] <apallo> because linux supports tarballs
[01:44] <kitche> robo: well .tar.gz is usually source you have to compile it
[01:45] <mrunagi>  sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst stuart__
[01:45] <robo> I try
[01:45] <robo> it says ./configure is not a commmand
[01:45] <llllllll> astro76, PriceChild, thanks for that. I'm gonna make a scrub script then I think
[01:45] <kitche> robo: tar -xvf <file> then cd <folder> and either ./configure or make depending on the programming also sudo apt-get install build-essential if you haven't done so already
[01:45] <robo> or theres no make
[01:45] <stuart__> i'm in menu.lst. how do i point it to /dev/hdb1 and to boot from it
[01:46] <Creed> damn kitche wrote it faster :(
[01:46] <stuart__> i currently have root (hd1,0) then kernel /casper/vmlinuz boot=casper root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=1048576 rw
[01:46] <stuart__> but it doesn't work
[01:46] <mrunagi> !doesn't work
[01:46] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[01:46] <llllllll> It's kinda a project of mine to create a 'bulletproof' computer security wise. Can somebody tell me where the Places > Recent Documents
[01:46] <llllllll> is
[01:47] <kiba> it say my driver does not need any restricted driver
[01:47] <Savage-{> !google
[01:47] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[01:47] <stuart__> it won't boot at the beginning, saying my /casper/vmlinuz boot=casper root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=1048576 rw is wrong
[01:47] <tamale> wow.. that's the most smug !-helper i've ever seen.. lol.. google
[01:48] <kiba> my nividia apperantly do not need a restricted driver
[01:48] <kiba> must  be my beryl?
[01:49] <stuart__> so does anyone know how i can use grub to boot off my /dev/hdb1 because the installer files are currently there
[01:49] <jsestri2> When I try to upgrade (with the upgrade manager) from 6.06 to 6.10 I get an error saying a certain file is unavailable...any ideas?
[01:49] <Savage-{> google should be source #1, not entirely because people don't wanna help, but because it will be the fastest way of getting an answer.
[01:49] <jsestri2> stuart__: edit the boot menu
[01:50] <Savage-{> My experiences
[01:50] <mrunagi> i wanna help
[01:50] <jsestri2> stuart__: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:50] <stuart__> jsestri2: was wondering what i'd type in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:50] <noldon> anyone knows any fun projects to keep myself busy with
[01:50] <llllllll> The linux google looks like the normal one but with less options and more eye candy. Same with the firefox one, actually.
[01:50] <jsestri2> make sure you know which kernel you want to boot
[01:50] <menisk> I am trying to change my system tray icons, to give my desktop a nicer look and feel, I haved changed some but cannot get the Network manager one to change after replacing the icons I found in /usr/share/icons what am I doing wrong?
[01:50] <jsestri2> and type the location
[01:50] <Savage-{> there is plenty of documentation out there on certain issues but the ones that are not clarified should be resolved in IRC
[01:50] <stuart__> so that it boots off the device as it would an installer cd
[01:50] <bagoor> Where is /etc/inittab ?
[01:51] <jsestri2> stuart__: just figure out which kernel you want to boot and make its similar
[01:51] <tamale> Savage-{: i agree google is  best by far, but the way the helper commented is worded is extremely condescending :)
[01:51] <tamale> most people know what google is lol
[01:51] <tamale> especially if they're on IRC
[01:51] <jsestri2> stuart__:  that menu tells grub where to look for the kernel,  your plan b is to (bios) your hard drives to the reverse order
[01:52] <Savage-{> I'm just pointing out that it really is the best way to get an answer sometimes being that it is more likely going to be correct and quicker
[01:53] <tamale> Savage-{: Again, I agree.. I just think some of these ! helpers from ubotu need to be re-worded to not sound so "high and mighty"
[01:53] <DARKGuy> I kinda agree with tamale
[01:53] <PriceChild> tamale, suggest what you would like to be changed and we can change them :)
[01:53] <Savage-{> I'm aware of what your getting at :)
[01:53] <zepolen> the best way to get an answer from linux gurus is along the lines of: 'linux sucks, i cant even *do this* in it'
[01:54] <zepolen> you will get 100 different ways within seconds
[01:54] <DARKGuy> lmao

[01:54] <Savage-{> zepolen lol that is smart
[01:54] <menisk> Hehe
[01:54] <Tnax> hi everyone, i have a problem with my resolution, i want to use 1440x900 but after adding "1440x900" in the xorg.conf file i still cant use higher resolution than 1028x768
[01:55] <PriceChild> tamale, that's too rtfm for me sorry...
[01:55] <Pelo> Tnax,  what's your video card ?
[01:55] <menisk> Tnax, what type of video card?
[01:55] <menisk> Pelo eat me. :(
[01:55] <Tnax> nvidia 7100gs
[01:55] <tamale> how is that more rtfm than what it currently says?
[01:55] <menisk> Tnax, installed the nvidia binary drivers?
[01:55] <tamale> what it says now implies you're a complete imbecile hah
[01:55] <leperkhanz> Hey, anyone know where or how I can back up my tomboy notes if I'm doing a clean reinstall?
[01:55] <zepolen> why thank you Savage-{, the bill is in the mail
[01:56] <Tnax> menisk: woah...thought it was something simple like that, tnx alot :P
[01:56] <kiba> um
[01:56] <kiba> I don't have any binary drivers for nividia to install
[01:56] <DagonIT> would someone recomment a software package that can rip a pdf file or convert into an open format:
[01:56] <kiba> and I am having white string bug
[01:56] <menisk> Tnax, I have no idea if it will work, but worth a try.
[01:56] <kiba> s/string/screen
[01:56] <menisk> You get 3D too.
[01:56] <menisk> :_
[01:56] <menisk> :)*
[01:56] <Pelo> leperkhanz, I suggest you put your /home folder on a seperate partition, that way all you setting will be saved when you reinstall
[01:56] <Tnax> menisk: ill try it, brb
[01:56] <menisk> Tnax, Good luck.
[01:56] <Pelo> DagonIT,  doesn't OOo read pdf ?
[01:57] <zepolen> i used to help linux newbies out, but i realised all my answers could be simplified to RTFM...then after a while some people would reply 'I've already RTFM!', so i had to learn a new acronym....RTFMA
[01:57] <leperkhanz> Pelo: Great Idea, so Tomboy notes are somewhere in Home?
[01:57] <DARKGuy> RTFMA?
[01:57] <DagonIT> Pelo, it doesn't support the pdf format for import
[01:57] <DARKGuy> oh, nvm lol
[01:57] <Pelo> leperkhanz,  everthing is somewhere in /home execpt for  Os , apps and libs
[01:57] <Pelo> DagonIT, ic
[01:57] <leperkhanz> And how do I change my home directory after reinstall?
[01:57] <Savage-{> pdf is a standard commodity now days it can be converted and used and many ways
[01:58] <menisk> Which icons do I edit to change the network manager icons, I thought I found it in /usr/share/icons but it didn't change
[01:58] <tamale> PriceChild: I've seen you here a lot.. do you know anything about the feisty installer disc and ATI cards having major compatibilty issues?
[01:58] <juano__> jrib: hi
[01:58] <DARKGuy> Pelo: :(
[01:58] <PriceChild> tamale, nope sorry, try failsafe graphics mode on boot
[01:58] <juano__> jrib: mm , you know, i uninstalled everything started from scratch, still having the same problem
[01:58] <VoLLi> hey... read the newest harry potter book... just released... fully transcribed :)
[01:58] <juano__> ikonia: hi
[01:58] <tamale> PriceChild: I tried that.. it didn't work either.. I'm installing with the alternate disc now
[01:58] <mrunagi> if i put in a tv tuner would ubuntu automatically recognize it like vista does?
[01:58] <juano__> ikonia: i tried reinstalling nvidia form scratch, no luck
[01:58] <Tnax> menisk: that sorted it out, tnx
[01:59] <tamale> PriceChild: I only ask 'cause someone here earlier said that there is a "widely known bug with feisty and ATI"
[01:59] <leperkhanz> mrunagi: did for me!
[01:59] <menisk> Tnax, thats okay.
[01:59] <zepolen> tamale: dont use a gui, thats not hardcore
[01:59] <leperkhanz> probably depends on the card though.
[01:59] <PriceChild> tamale, ask them to give a launchpad bug number
[01:59] <mrunagi> what prog do you use to view ur tuner leperkhanz
[01:59] <leperkhanz> mrunagi: I recommend TVtime
[01:59] <mrunagi> does tvtime decode digital HD signals?
[01:59] <tamale> zepolen: I don't really care if it installs in a GUI or not lol.. I just want a gui that works when it's DONE installing ;)
[02:00] <zepolen> but thats not hardcore :/
[02:00] <tamale> zepolen: lol
[02:00] <zepolen> use leds, those are hardcore
[02:00] <zepolen> binary leds
[02:00] <Zeke> really?
[02:00] <zepolen> 4 of them
[02:00] <tamale> zepolen: as my only output device from my computer except for my printer
[02:00] <tamale> zepolen: and my serial port
[02:01] <zepolen> yes
[02:01] <zepolen> or beeps!
[02:01] <tamale> haha
[02:01] <Zeke> what's the wget command to "reinstall" nvidia drivers?
[02:01] <zepolen> visual feedback is for n00bs
[02:01] <tamale> well, my only input method are a few jumpers on the motherboard itself.. how's that for hardcoreness?
[02:01] <Zeke> anyone?
[02:01] <r00723r0> i'd like to run an ssh server
[02:01] <r00723r0> anyone know what package to get?
[02:02] <r00723r0> (what is preferred)
[02:02] <astro76> r00723r0, openssh-server
[02:02] <thoreauputic> r00723r0: openssh-server
[02:02] <philth> Hello all, With windows I am used to being able to just type a machine name instead of an IP address. I understand this uses WINS in the windows world. What alternative is there for Linux? I am not interested in setting up nmlookup but rather an alternative to the windows way.
[02:02] <zepolen> r00723r0: openssh-server
[02:02] <Zeke> cause I try to run beryl and it works for a bit then quits working
[02:03] <Zeke> I reinstalled invidia drivers and it worked until just a minute ago
[02:04] <Zeke> anyone at all?
[02:04] <ferret_0567> that's better
[02:04] <zepolen> zeke: download the turn-back-time package
[02:04] <mrunagi> so if tvtime doesnt show any video then my tuner doesnt work right?
[02:04] <juano__> ikonia: problem solved! finally
[02:04] <thoreauputic> philth: either put the names in /etc/hots or set up a local DNS
[02:05] <Pelo> mrunagi, you'll just have to load the tuner driver manualy,  don'T ask me how, I donT' know,  search for the model in the forum
[02:05] <Zeke> ok, but there is a - I believe - wget command that just reinstalls the drivers
[02:05] <juano__> ikonia: removed all and installed nvidia-glx-new and driver is now nvidia, glxgears outputs very fast gears !
[02:05] <thoreauputic> philth: /etc/hosts workd with static Ips
[02:05] <mrunagi> which forum
[02:05] <Pelo> mrunagi, www.ubuntuforums.com
[02:05] <PriceChild> Pelo, .org
[02:05] <Pelo> PriceChild,  i believe both work
[02:06] <mrunagi> oh k
[02:06] <PriceChild> Pelo, yes... but you may sometimes have problems with .com
[02:06] <philth> thoreauputic,  Is there any other way that doesn't require staticly assigning mac-ip's then ip-> names. I use DHCP and don't want to set every computer to an IP.
[02:06] <Pelo> PriceChild,  I stand corrected I now get a redirect page
[02:06] <stuart_> is there any pre-installed cd burning program cos my apt-get is screwed
[02:06] <mrunagi> sigh doesnt look like mine is supported.....i guess im keeping vista on for a while =/
[02:06] <thoreauputic> philth: I use static arp mapping from my router
[02:07] <thugren> Hey I am have problems with my Wireless card not working in 7.04?
[02:07] <mrunagi> stuart_: whats wrong with ur apt-get
[02:07] <thoreauputic> philth: your router might not have that tough
[02:07] <stuart_> mrunagi: it's warty
[02:07] <Pelo> stuart_,   nautilus burns cd look under  places
[02:07] <mrunagi> huh?
[02:07] <thoreauputic> umm s/tough/though
[02:07] <thoreauputic> :)
[02:07] <flicka-94> but k3b are good :)
[02:07] <philth> thoreauputic,  thanks I'll look in to this.

[02:07] <ubotu> http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv.

[02:07] <thoreauputic> philth: that way dhcp always gives out the same IP for a particular mac
[02:07] <stuart_> Pelo: places?
[02:08] <stuart_> mrunagi: i'm have warty installed and apt-ge tisn't supported anymore
[02:08] <Pelo> stuart_,  do you have gui ? and are you running gnome ?
[02:08] <stuart_> Pelo: yup
[02:08] <flicka-94> sudo-apt get
[02:08] <mrunagi> i dont understand stuart_
[02:08] <stuart_> mrunagi: whenever i try to apt-get anything it can't connect
[02:09] <Pelo> stuart_, in the top bar menu ,   under places,  where you have shortcuts for /home and system etc ,  look further down,  there is a link for cd/dvd recording
[02:09] <stuart_> because there's no support anymore for warty warthog, right?
[02:09] <tannerld> I upgraded firefox in apt-get, but it still says 2.0.0.4 in the about menu
[02:09] <mrunagi> what does it say stuart_
[02:09] <stuart_> Pelo: I think it's because i'm using warty. there's only applications and computer up there
[02:09] <Pelo> stuart_,  you can put in your cd and sudo apt-get update ,  that will get some packages from the cd
[02:09] <thoreauputic> stuart_: warty is from the dark ages of 2004 ;)
[02:09] <saxin> stuart_: correct.
[02:09] <Pelo> stuart_,  in computer
[02:10] <stuart_> haha well actually i have cd/dvd creator running when i inserted the empty cd
[02:10] <jarrod_> can anyone recommend a networking irc room?
[02:10] <stuart_> how do i actually make a cd with the iso instead of just copying the iso into the cd.
[02:10] <stuart_> i only have 1 cd, dno't wanan screw it up
[02:10] <thoreauputic> stuart_: gurn it as an image
[02:10] <Pelo> stuart_,  I beleive if you right click on the .iso file you will get the option to burn it
[02:10] <thoreauputic> *burn
[02:10] <stuart_> cool
[02:10] <stuart_> sec..

[02:13] <jarrod_> pelo will that help w/non samba networking?
[02:13] <thoreauputic> jarrod_: of course not :)
[02:13] <Pelo> jarrod_,  what do you think ?
[02:13] <jsestri2> How bad is it to dist-upgrade with apt instead of using upgrade-manager?
[02:13] <thoreauputic> jarrod_: as I said, be more specific
[02:13] <PriceChild> jsestri2, bad enough that we don't recommend it
[02:14] <Pelo> jarrod_, at best you will get redirected to a proper channel,  at worst , well,  nice knowing you
[02:14] <thoreauputic> jsestri2: requires more apt and dpkg-fu :)
[02:14] <jsestri2> PriceChild: What if upgrade manager is broken though? will i die?
[02:14] <jarrod_> thoreauputic. no issue just a place to "learn" lick right now i need to ask some questins about buses
[02:14] <PriceChild> jsestri2, your risk
[02:14] <stuart_> btw how do i browse as root
[02:14] <jsestri2> Price-Child: upgrade-manager doesnt work for 6.06 -> 6.10
[02:14] <stuart_> e.g: i wanna be able to delete, change permissions with right click, while as root
[02:14] <Pelo> stuart_,  gksu nautilus

[02:15] <mrunagi> if you edit the system32.dll file to recreate or redesign the shell of windows.......thats illegal under the EULA?
[02:15] <thoreauputic> jarrod_: problem is, networking is a pretty vast subject...

[02:16] <polaris> doubt it, but I hate forums.

[02:22] <astro76> bryantcaley, well that directory is readable by everyone, what command are you trying? probably just need sudo
[02:22] <mrunagi> is the bot broken?

[02:23] <bryantcaley> astro , i copied the files in there from a fat32 drive
[02:23] <MrTsunami> no, you just have to know how to use it ;)
[02:23] <kitche> billiejoex: the source code for the ftp command is included in all linux distros
[02:23] <mrunagi> ja.......weso, du gehts #ubuntu-de
[02:23] <billiejoex> kitche, where sould I have to search?
[02:24] <billiejoex> I'm currenlty running an Ubuntu 7.04
[02:24] <astro76> bryantcaley, try chmod 644 /var/cache/apt/archives/*
[02:24] <dmdzine> :P
[02:24] <kitche> billiejoex: umm there is netkit-ftp which is the standard ftp
[02:24] <mrunagi> what is the number in chmod
[02:25] <bryantcaley> mrunagi: chmod 777  :) thankyou !!
[02:25] <astro76> bryantcaley, 777, that's not good
[02:25] <dmdzine> its like 111 over 666
[02:25] <SirBob1701> how do i figure out what kernel version i have installed?
[02:25] <bryantcaley> astro76: what difference is chmod 644 to 777 ??
[02:25] <mrunagi> yes what is the difference
[02:25] <cupps> Can anyone in here help me with running World of Warcraft in wine, or is there a better channel in which to seek help?
[02:25] <astro76> bryantcaley, 777 is read/write/execute for everyone
[02:25] <astro76> mrunagi, if you don't know, why advise then?
[02:25] <mrunagi> because 777 works for me
[02:25] <kitche> SirBob1701: uname -r
[02:25] <mrunagi> !chmod
[02:25] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[02:25] <bryantcaley> oh, right, 644 is better ?
[02:25] <SirBob1701> kitche: thanks
[02:26] <billiejoex> kitche, such netkit-ftp is the same "ftp" program included in linux?
[02:26] <SirBob1701> ls
[02:26] <bryantcaley> im really noob at terminal
[02:26] <dmdzine> 644 is like 22 less than 666
[02:26] <kitche> billiejoex: most likely unless they are using a newer ftp
[02:26] <dmdzine> in case anyone was wondering
[02:26] <mrunagi> astro76: what is the difference
[02:26] <astro76> bryantcaley, yes 644 is read for everyone, but only root can write, no execute, these are not executables
[02:26] <billiejoex> uhm... maybe I should search in kernel. Does it probable that it is included with kernel sources?
[02:26] <openmindDJ> music_shuffle, if i remove the package xorg-driver-fglrx, should i then run sudo depmod -a?
[02:26] <kitche> billiejoex: no it's a seperate program
[02:27] <astro76> mrunagi, because you defeat the whole security paradigm of the system if you make stuff writable by users outside of /home
[02:27] <bryantcaley> astro76: much appreciated
[02:28] <bryantcaley> ;)
[02:28] <mrunagi> i dont really understand.....
[02:28] <dmdzine> :-[
[02:28] <mrunagi> is that why im able to browse other accounts home folders on here without a password
[02:28] <mrunagi> because that was kinda wierd
[02:28] <irvine> i try to mount an ext3 partition and i get this mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
[02:28] <irvine>        missing codepage or other error
[02:28] <irvine> any ideas?
[02:29] <mrunagi> can you tell me how to make it so that you cant browse other users home folders?
[02:29] <jrib> mrunagi: change the permissions on /home/FOOBAR
[02:29] <jrib> !permissions > mrunagi (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:30] <mrunagi> so whats the chmod command for that
[02:30] <irvine> chmod 777 /home/FOOBAR
[02:31] <jrib> irvine: that would usually be bad
[02:31] <jrib> mrunagi: did you read the page ubotu sent you?
[02:31] <irvine> then chmod 755
[02:31] <jrib> irvine: that's not what he wants
[02:32] <tux0> hey guys, do any ovu kno the command to recompile the kernel?
[02:32] <tux0> im under feiste fawn

[02:42] <alecw1> Help! I just installed Ubuntu (using the alternate installer) and I just rebooted, and I get an error: "Failed to start the X server (your GUI). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?" And then it continues to give me a list of errors like "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed" Can someone help?
[02:42] <tatters> been trying to upgrade to gibbon keep getting Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/commercial/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found ...is server down?
[02:42] <poningru> alecw1: ignore the bcm43xx errors
[02:42] <TeTeT> alecw1: the two probs are unrelated. For the X try $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:42] <poningru> thats your wifi card not working correctly
[02:43] <poningru> actually I would prefer it if you could see what the error was
[02:43] <alecw1> wait... how do I get to a terminal?
[02:43] <poningru> alecw1: what does the error say?
[02:43] <poningru> alecw1: ctrl+shift+f1
[02:43] <TeTeT> alecw1: for the bcm43xx problem, google for broadcom and ubuntu
[02:43] <poningru> we'll take care of that later
[02:43] <alecw1> Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed."
[02:43] <poningru> !broadcom
[02:43] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:43] <poningru> alecw1: no not that error
[02:44] <poningru> the X error
[02:44] <poningru> Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"
[02:44] <poningru> press yes or something there
[02:44] <alecw1> let me restart
[02:44] <obf213> if i want to get php and mysql what packages should i download
[02:44] <alecw1> what's the problem though?
[02:44] <antiNeo> do you guys think compiz will work okay on an nvidia fx5200 128mb (only $30 on newegg)?
[02:44] <osmosis> how do I update my repository url ?
[02:44] <alecw1> I checked the disc...
[02:45] <tatters> compvis works fine with my fx5200
[02:45] <astro76> alecw1, for the broadcom you need to install the firmware, first: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[02:45] <astro76> alecw1, then: sudo cp /lib/firmware/bcm43xx* /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[02:45] <poningru> alecw1: no idea
[02:45] <antiNeo> tatters: smoothly, even with a buncha windows?
[02:45] <alecw1> ok I'll try that, after that, willl it work?
[02:45] <poningru> astro76: uh you dont have to do that dude
[02:46] <poningru> alecw1: no dude ignore the broadcom problem for now
[02:46] <poningru> alecw1: lets figure out X first
[02:46] <alecw1> what do I do??
[02:46] <tatters> antiNeo: I would say it runs smoothly , but I have no other machine to benchmark against
[02:46] <poningru> tell us the error from X
[02:46] <antiNeo> alright, thanks! :)
[02:46] <alecw1> ok, I have to reboot.
[02:46] <tatters> as smooth as most things anyways
[02:46] <poningru> ok
[02:46] <alecw1> I exited out of the error
[02:46] <rustalot> would it be possible to create a portable RAID 5 array
[02:46] <DrZaius> obf213: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[02:46] <alecw1> This is depressing, I just barely bought this thing. :(
[02:46] <poningru> alecw1: and booted into windows?
[02:46] <noldon> how do i know what video codec im missing
[02:47] <poningru> bought what?
[02:47] <alecw1> no... no OS yet.
[02:47] <rustalot> like to carry arround with my laptop
[02:47] <alecw1> well, ubuntu. but X isn't working
[02:47] <poningru> oh how are you talking to us?
[02:47] <alecw1> other comp
[02:47] <poningru> ok
[02:47] <alecw1> ok
[02:47] <hellekin> hello people. I have a problem on a Feisty: metacity dumps core, crashing application after a random (but short, say 5 minutes) time. I guess it's a memory problem.
[02:47] <alecw1> i'm at the error screen
[02:47] <alecw1> what do you want?
[02:47] <poningru> what does the error say?
[02:47] <poningru> just type out the important stuff
[02:47] <hellekin> gdb says: Core was generated by `metacity --sm-save-file 1125285736-9136-3387226525.ms'.
[02:48] <alecw1> I see this: (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a u sable configuration.
[02:48] <alecw1> No screen found
[02:48] <replman> Hi!
[02:48] <antiNeo> hellekin: why do yu think it's a memory problem? you should run memtest86 (I think it's on the ubuntu boot disk... idk) a few times, if you're worried
[02:48] <alecw1> that's it poningru
[02:49] <ari_stress> hello, can anyone give me info on apt-catcher? i heard that it can be used to save bandwidth?
[02:49] <alecw1> nothing else is there, except for the microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw error
[02:49] <poningru> alecw1: ok go to a terminal and do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video
[02:49] <antiNeo> hellekin: does it crash like that when you're using the live cd?
[02:49] <JasonWoof> how do I run my own window manager?
[02:49] <poningru> alecw1: like I said ignore that for now
[02:49] <replman> I have a problem installing (k)ubuntu on my new core2duo system. The hdd is not recognised by the live system. I figured out, that the mainboard (msi P35/G33 Neo) has a Marvell 88SE6111 IDE Controller
[02:50] <hellekin> antiNeo: because / is used at 95%. The box was installed like 1.5 years ago and upgraded as new versions appear
[02:50] <poningru> alecw1: go to a terminal by ctrl+shift+f1
[02:50] <antiNeo> hellekin: ohh, yeah... that's bad
[02:50] <noldon> how do i mount a .img file
[02:50] <alecw1> it says "xserver-xorg-video" is not installed
[02:50] <antiNeo> hellekin: I thought you were talking RAM... but you mean storage memory
[02:50] <JasonWoof> I see a pulldown at the gdm login thing, you can pick "run Xclient script"... I made ~/.xclient ~/.Xclient ~/.xinitrc ~/.Xinitrc ~/Xclient ~/xclient ~/Xinitrc and ~/xinitrc and it loads gnome anyway
[02:50] <irvine> JasonWoof: select it in the login screen
[02:51] <JasonWoof> irvine: I don't want one of them from the list, I want it to run my script
[02:51] <dissection> Anyone knows of a P2P Messenger with encryption that also has a Windows clients so it works on a network with Windows and Linux PCs?
[02:51] <hellekin> antiNeo: do you think I should reinstall using a new CD or is there a workaround?
[02:51] <poningru> wtf
[02:51] <alecw1> here is what I typed:
[02:51] <replman> i've made my usb-stick bootable with (k)ubuntu live. Is it possible (and if, how) to update the kernel for the live-system?
[02:51] <irvine> dunno
[02:51] <poningru> alecw1: sorry
[02:51] <antiNeo> hellekin: umm... full disks usually cause lots of problems... what do you think's taking up all that space?
[02:51] <alecw1> sudo dpkg=reconfigure xserver-xorg-video
[02:51] <antiNeo> hellekin: how big is the disk?
[02:51] <alecw1> -*
[02:51] <hellekin> antiNeo: / is very small
[02:51] <poningru> alecw1: do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video-all
[02:51] <alecw1> ok
[02:52] <poningru> forgot the all
[02:52] <alecw1> ok, poningru, it didn't give me an error..
[02:52] <hellekin> antiNeo: / is 270M
[02:52] <antiNeo> hellekin: I would recommend no less than 10GB for root these days, if you're going to install many programs...
[02:52] <antiNeo> hellekin: ehe, that's your problem, your disk is smaller than the live cd ;)
[02:52] <poningru> alecw1: restart
[02:53] <alecw1> what's the command for restarting?
[02:53] <poningru> reboot
[02:53] <antiNeo> hellekin: do you mean 270M free? that sounds too small for even an old hdd...
[02:53] <alecw1> (just so I know for the future)
[02:53] <alecw1> ok
[02:53] <poningru> or sudo shutdown -r now
[02:53] <hellekin> antiNeo: yeah... I tried to uninstall some unused software such as rdesktop, but tsclient is required by ubuntu-desktop
[02:53] <alecw1> ok I think "sudo reboot" did it
[02:53] <rlv> is there a way to disable the forced check of the os after a certain bumber of mounts?
[02:53] <alecw1> poningru, it's booting up...
[02:54] <PurpZeY> rlv: I've been told that there isn't. That you can do control c + d...but that it's highly recommended you just let it do it's thing
[02:54] <antiNeo> hellekin: okay... if your disk is really small (< 5GB), ubuntu probably isn't the best OS for it
[02:54] <hellekin> antiNeo: actually, the / partition is 270M, /var is 2,8G, /usr is 5,5G
[02:54] <poningru> alecw1: out of curiosity what kinda screen do you have?
[02:54] <alecw1> poningru, no luck. :(
[02:54] <PurpZeY> rlv: I believe it's ctrl+d+c but, I've never done it, as I was advised not to skip it.
[02:54] <alecw1> It's a Dell laptop, Latitude D630
[02:54] <alecw1> just bought it today
[02:54] <poningru> what kinda vid card?
[02:54] <antiNeo> hellekin: huh, did you make the partition that small on purpose?
[02:55] <Vsop_vsop_vsop> Hey folks!!
[02:55] <alecw1> poningru, no idea, i think integrated
[02:55] <antiNeo> hellekin: on a disk that small, it's probably best to just put everything on the same partition
[02:55] <PurpZeY> Usually on laptops it's an Intel Chipset, unless it's a gaming laptop
[02:55] <poningru> alecw1: ok do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-core
[02:55] <alecw1> ok
[02:55] <jetscreamer> -core?
[02:55] <poningru> PurpZeY: uh no
[02:55] <poningru> jetscreamer: yes everything
[02:55] <hellekin> antiNeo: I don't remember... I guess my parents wanted to keep their Windows data at the time, so I had to improvise
[02:56] <PurpZeY> poningru: sorry to speak out of turn, just trying to help.
[02:56] <antiNeo> hellekin: ahh, okay...
[02:56] <rlv> PurpZeY: it makes sense not to, but it has hinder the need for immediate productivity several times (it on a mobil latop).  I also despise forced action without an option of any kind.  It should be my mistake to make.
[02:56] <poningru> PurpZeY: its cool
[02:56] <hellekin> antiNeo: but I agree, 270M for / is way small. On my Debians, I use 512M
[02:56] <alecw1> ok poningru
[02:56] <antiNeo> hellekin: well, do you know how big the actuall hard drive is, windows and all?
[02:56] <alecw1> restart?
[02:56] <PurpZeY> rlv: Last I heard someone ask that question I was told it is not possible to turn it off, but that there is a way to skip it.
[02:56] <jetscreamer> when -core doesn't work just put xserver-xorg
[02:56] <poningru> alecw1: err hold on
[02:57] <alecw1> ok
[02:57] <poningru> alecw1: do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg-core
[02:57] <hellekin> antiNeo: by the time, I removed Windows completely, so I should be able to remap the disk
[02:57] <antiNeo> hellekin: on most drives smaller than 40GB, I usually just make it one partition
[02:57] <PurpZeY> rlv: I suspect that you can probably find that on the forum
[02:57] <alecw1> ok poningru
[02:57] <alecw1> now what?
[02:58] <poningru> alecw1: did you answer the questions?
[02:58] <alecw1> tehre were none....
[02:58] <alecw1> :(
[02:58] <poningru> wtf
[02:58] <obf213> is there  a spotlight type thing for ubuntu
[02:58] <alecw1> poningru, now what?
[02:59] <poningru> alecw1: do it without core
[02:59] <antiNeo> hellekin: okay... I'd say the best thing to do is to re-install ubuntu, and try and make one partition that's at the bare minimum 4GB. use that partition as /, and all the other directories (home, usr, var, etc.) will fall under the / directory.
[02:59] <hellekin> antiNeo: well, the disk is 80G, but only about 40 are used (I removed rebootOS, but used the remaining for backups)
[02:59] <poningru> alecw1: yeah oops
[02:59] <poningru> I meant without -core
[02:59] <alecw1> screen popped up
[02:59] <Nembie563> I have downloaded packages for Tor using Snaptic Package Manager. However, I cannot find the program in my start menu. This page: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/#not_available suggested that I use the The Debian menu "menu-xdg" However, even after a restart I do not have the Debian menu or a clear link to Tor.
[03:00] <alecw1> "attempt to autodetect hardware?" yes or no
[03:00] <antiNeo> hellekin: is this a dual boot?
[03:00] <Nutubuntu> hellekin, if you can stand another opinion - make a separate partition for /home, so that in case of a reinstall, you can avoid having to backup and restore your data
[03:00] <hellekin> antiNeo: not anymore :)
[03:00] <antiNeo> hellekin: :D
[03:00] <nickrud> Nembie563, you also need to install    menu
[03:00] <alecw1> poningru; "attempt to autodetect hardware?" yes or no
[03:00] <hellekin> Nutubuntu: I already have a 30G /home
[03:00] <antiNeo> hellekin: okay... but you still have backup partitions you need to save?
[03:00] <poningru> alecw1: yes ofcourse
[03:00] <poningru> answer the questions
[03:01] <poningru> till you get to the screen portion
[03:01] <antiNeo> hellekin: alright... I think your problem is your / partition is too small. we can fix this without a reinstall
[03:01] <DrZaius> obf213: Beagle, Strigi, Pinot, Tracker and Recoll
[03:01] <antiNeo> hellekin: if you boot the live cd, you can go to the system menu and find a partition editor
[03:01] <hellekin> I guess I can debootstrap a new ubuntu on the spare partition, remove the existing /, and reinstall remotely?

[03:02] <alecw1> It says "No X server known for your video hardware. There is either no video hardware installed on this machine, or the "discover" program was unable to determine which X server is appropriate for the video hardware.

[03:02] <Bilbo> hi all
[03:02] <poningru> alecw1: something weird is going on this shouldnt be happening
[03:02] <poningru> go reinstall it
[03:02] <antiNeo> hellekin: resize the / directory to be reasonable. keep in mind how many programs you want to install. I'd go for ~10GB myself
[03:02] <poningru> are you sure you installed the desktop?
[03:02] <nickrud> Nembie563, you need to install two packages:  menu-xdg and menu to see the debian menu
[03:02] <Lunis> fast question: i'm installing ubuntu through vmware to a physical disk that ubuntu will have all to itself. problem i just thought of is: what will ubuntu do when i boot that disk outside of vmware? will it "freak out" because of the massive hardware changes, or adapt?
[03:02] <Bilbo> I am new to ubuntu and have a question
[03:02] <PurpZeY> rlv: Here's more actually: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=300477
[03:02] <alecw1> i pressed enter, poningru, and it brought me to the "X server driver"
[03:02] <PurpZeY> !ask | Bilbo
[03:02] <ubotu> Bilbo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:02] <poningru> alecw1: huh?
[03:02] <hellekin> antiNeo: I'm 600Km away from the box, I need to fix it remotely :)
[03:02] <alecw1> and this is a VERY new laptop, released only a few weeks ago, so maybe not suported yet?
[03:02] <Bilbo> the first user call him bilbo... has sound working
[03:02] <alecw1> It's asking me to select a driver...
[03:03] <alecw1> "sis"
[03:03] <alecw1> "sisusb"
[03:03] <Bilbo> I also have a second user frodo
[03:03] <antiNeo> hellekin: ohh, you didn't say that in your question ;P
[03:03] <alecw1> "tdfx"
[03:03] <alecw1> "tga"
[03:03] <Bilbo> frodo's sound does not work
[03:03] <codecaine> how you detect what type of monitor linux see u using?
[03:03] <Nembie563> nickrud: thanks I'll try that
[03:03] <Bilbo> in fact sound preferences has no devices
[03:03] <PurpZeY> Bilbo: First step try this:
[03:03] <poningru> alecw1: its supported out of the box
[03:03] <PurpZeY> !alsa | Bilbo
[03:03] <ubotu> Bilbo: 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
[03:03] <antiNeo> hellekin: okay... well... if your root partition is full, I don't think there's much you can do remotely
[03:03] <Bilbo> okie
[03:03] <hellekin> I guess I can safely make a new partition, cp -x / to the new partition and pray :)
[03:04] <alecw1> poningru, what should I do? I tried using a Live CD, but half way through it gave the an error: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=504821
[03:04] <PurpZeY> Bilbo: If you are still having problems then return.
[03:04] <antiNeo> hellekin: ehe, you could do that
[03:04] <poningru> alecw1: hold on looking
[03:04] <antiNeo> hellekin: but then I'd have to walk you through using chroot and whatnot... and it probably wouldn't work very well on ubuntu
[03:04] <poningru> hmm thats during bootup
[03:04] <poningru> that just means your cd was messed up
[03:04] <hellekin> I'm going to try it. After all, I just need to tell Grub the / partition is a different one
[03:04] <Veen> Has anyone successfully run Starcraft in Wine?
[03:04] <poningru> Veen: yes but not I
[03:05] <PurpZeY> !verify | alecw1

[03:05] <antiNeo> hellekin: it sounds to me like you made seperate partitions for /, /usr, /var, and /home, am I right?
[03:05] <persept> is there any way I can set add a swap drive (usb) while running in live cd
[03:05] <hellekin> antiNeo: yes
[03:05] <alecw1> poningru, I tried 3 CDs!
[03:05] <Bilbo> PurpZeY, hmmm when I double click on the volume control I get there are no devices....
[03:05] <alecw1> all from ubuntu shipit.
[03:05] <hellekin> antiNeo: so I can keep all but /
[03:05] <antiNeo> hellekin: okay, that's probably why you ran out of space
[03:05] <poningru> alecw1: OH!?
[03:05] <nickrud> codecaine, I just look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:05] <antiNeo> hellekin: are you firmiliar with the unix filesystem hiarchy?
[03:05] <defjux> how do i check if i have usb 2.0??
[03:06] <hellekin> antiNeo: I've been using Linux for 15+ years :)
[03:06] <antiNeo> hellekin: ahh ;P
[03:06] <PurpZeY> Bilbo: And it's the same exact setup, just log out and change users?
[03:06] <Bilbo> yes
[03:06] <alecw1> poningru, that error message was recvieved during the "ubuntu" loading screen, where the bar goes back and forth... on the live cd
[03:06] <antiNeo> hellekin: I was assuming you were a newb because you ran out of space... you've been using linux 10 years longer than I have X-D

[03:07] <alecw1> poningru, I'm more than sure... it's got the brand right on it
[03:07] <bastid_raZor> frodo could have it if added to admin group
[03:07] <Bilbo> PurpZeY, Oh and this is Feisty fawn
[03:07] <nickrud> defjux, lspci: one of them will say usb2 if you do

[03:07] <defjux> thanks nick :)
[03:07] <hellekin> just for the fun of it :)
[03:07] <antiNeo> hellekin: i'd go with the "make a bigger partition and then tell grub" plan
[03:07] <PurpZeY> Bilbo: I might be missing something, but I don't really see why having sudo should effect your sound device.
[03:07] <poningru> other than the power cord unplug everything and try the official cds
[03:08] <Bilbo> neither do i
[03:08] <hellekin> antiNeo: yep, doing that
[03:08] <alecw1> poningru, yes.
[03:08] <Nembie563> nickrud: I tried what you told me and got the menu package, when I restarted I still did not have the new menu or a start menu link to Tor in the original menu
[03:08] <PurpZeY> Bilbo: Does it show up in lspci ?
[03:08] <bastid_raZor> bilbo check to see if you're added to the audio group
[03:08] <Bilbo> ok

[03:08] <ubotu> You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines

[03:10] <Zambezi> I really need help with this errormessages: http://www.pastebin.ca/627006
[03:10] <PurpZeY> obf213: I suspect you'll have to install it first.
[03:11] <obf213> i installed it but i cant run it i tryed to run it in run. but it just syas cant run
[03:11] <poningru> alecw1: err no need for that
[03:11] <obf213> PurpZey. yeah i did.
[03:11] <nich0s> I'm looking for ideas short of remoting in to the ubuntu box.
[03:11] <poningru> just do it from the terminal
[03:11] <PurpZeY> obf213: Why won't it run?
[03:11] <alecw1> too late, poningru... :(
[03:11] <bulmer> nich0s, you need an X client or ssh client
[03:11] <obf213> PurpZey it says command not found
[03:11] <kitche> nich0s: install openssh-server and get putty for the windows box if you want just the terminal
[03:11] <obf213> i don tknow why
[03:11] <PurpZeY> obf213: How did you install it?
[03:11] <noldon> i cant get vlc to go fullscreen
[03:11] <obf213> synaptic
[03:11] <poningru> alecw1: hehe just log back into the terminal
[03:11] <alecw1> ok poningru. :)
[03:11] <PurpZeY> obf213: You are sure you are typing the proper command and that it's case sensitive. . .
[03:12] <nich0s> kitche: Thank you, is there any type of configuration that I am going to need to complete for this?
[03:12] <obf213> yeah i know. it just says command not found
[03:12] <PurpZeY> obf213: If you are getting that message it means that either it isn't installed or you are running the wrong command.
[03:13] <Bilbo> PurpZeY, let me go check if that fixed it as the other user
[03:13] <Bilbo> thanks for the help
[03:13] <kitche> nich0s: just make sure openssh-server us running and get putty and start it and the rest is pretty self-explaination
[03:13] <dBgBdWolf> i have an existing debian installation with lvm on raid. how can i install ubuntu over it (and keep my /home)?
[03:13] <Nembie563> nickrud: I just tried what you said and this is what is shot back out http://p.opsat.net/v/uo
[03:13] <h_ll_k_n> wow... looks like I had already started the process and forgot about it
[03:14] <slavik> anyway to make a larger panel use a different image for background? (or to actually stretch an svg image)
[03:14] <hellekin> guess what: I have a 2G empty ext3 partition on... /dev/hda1 :)
[03:14] <PurpZeY> slavik: I think you need to download panel images...It can be done.
[03:14] <nich0s> kitche: Thank you for your help. One final newbish question. If the server doesn't reinitialize on restart. What command could I use to start it?
[03:14] <obf213> herrm i uninstalled it reinstalled it and the command beagle does nothing
[03:14] <obf213> what other apps work for this again
[03:14] <bastid_raZor> dBgBdWolf, move /home elsewhere after the install move it back.
[03:14] <obf213> ill just try one of those
[03:14] <nickrud> Nembie563, then you should see a Debian entry under Applications; if you don't, try killall gnome-panel and look again
[03:14] <kitche> nich0s: sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start it should auto start though
[03:14] <hellekin> I'm pretty sure it was called C: before :)
[03:15] <Zambezi> Can anyone help me to change a thing i the kernel? This error: http://www.pastebin.ca/627006
[03:15] <PurpZeY> obf213: You are somehow calling the wrong command. What is the name of the package?
[03:15] <hellekin> so I must have started the move but forgot about it
[03:15] <obf213> beagle
[03:15] <obf213> i think its called search now tho
[03:15] <nich0s> kitche: Thank you.
[03:15] <obf213> i went to add remove program typed in beagle and it showed search
[03:15] <PurpZeY> obf213: Showed as installed?
[03:15] <obf213> yes
[03:16] <PurpZeY> obf213: If you did via add/remove it should be in your menu on the panel, no?
[03:17] <obf213> yeah i think i found it
[03:17] <obf213> its just called search
[03:17] <obf213> if thats it i dontknow
[03:17] <PurpZeY> obf213: So, try it via term
[03:17] <obf213> yeah that it
[03:17] <nich0s> kitche: Thank you. This is going to make my life much, much easier.
[03:17] <obf213> its opened. i guess the command to open it is not its name.
[03:17] <use> hello is there a way to run Itunes on linux ??

[03:18] <nich0s> ls
[03:18] <PurpZeY> use: I don't think so. There are some programs that will sync with iPod
[03:18] <nickrud> obf213, a quick way to find what command(s) to run from a package is:  dpkg -L <packagename> | grep bin
[03:18] <alecw1> poningru, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2980110&postcount=32
[03:18] <PurpZeY> slavik: If the theme contains a panel, yes....I don't really understand the question completely...The panel can be changed visually.
[03:18] <Fr3e-DoM> Whos still using Dapper version?
[03:18] <alecw1> how do I install those drivers?
[03:18] <use> no PurpZeY not to sync with ipod i want itunes cause its the best music organizer and i got 60k to organize lol
[03:19] <slavik> PurpZeY: I have 2 panels (top and bottom), the top panel is 24 pixels high, the bottom is 72pixels high (3x as top)
[03:19] <Nahi> PurpZeY; thanx for ur help last time with the network issue :)
[03:19] <Fr3e-DoM> Nobody?
[03:19] <poningru> alecw1: -Ran sudo apt-get install-xserver-xorg-video-intel
[03:19] <poningru> do that
[03:19] <PurpZeY> Nahi: I don't think iTunes runs in ubuntu...maybe in wine? no worries...glad it works.
[03:19] <PurpZeY> slavik: Right...but what is the question?
[03:19] <Nahi> um...but which version might work in wine ?
[03:19] <Nahi> thats the question
[03:19] <bruenig> use, you should check out easytag
[03:20] <slavik> the image that the theme uses for the panels is 24pixels high, so for the 72pixel panel, I get 3 panel images
[03:20] <bruenig> use, it has a lot of advanced features for organization
[03:20] <nickrud> Nembie563, things might have changed, try this if you still don't see it: right click the menu bar, select edit, and see if it's there, but not checked.
[03:20] <PurpZeY> Nahi: I'd try bruenig's suggestioon, from what I understand iTunes is really a no-go

[03:21] <nickrud> Nembie563, gnome panel is the container that the menubar sits in. At one time, some panel applets didn't start properly unless you restarted the panel. That's what killall gnome-panel does.
[03:21] <alecw1> ok finished
[03:21] <alecw1> restart?

[03:29] <juano__> Ademan: ive tried the nvidia-glx-new drivers also and at one point it worked, bu then when i tried rebooting i got the same thing
[03:30] <Ademan> juano__: "version mismatch" ?
[03:30] <lordsaka> hi !!
[03:30] <enterneo> hey, my first time try out at ubuntu :)
[03:30] <juano__> Ademan: at one point it gave me that, but not now
[03:30] <Ademan> juano__: because if that's the error the solution is pretty easy,     /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common  has a line DISABLED_MODULES=""    and you either add or remove nv between the quotes
[03:30] <Nutubuntu> I just looked at top - vmware-vmx is eating up > 50% of my cpu and has been running for hours. I had exited vmware (I thought). Can I kill this process safely?
[03:31] <juano__> Ademan: tried that also
[03:31] <nickrud> enterneo, welcome
[03:31] <enterneo> hi nick
[03:31] <rolfen> bruenig: uh nu... but that's weird i used to be able to play dvds... anyway i'm installing them now
[03:31] <dissection> My ethernet failed to connect after I resumed from hibernate. Has that happened to anyone?
[03:32] <bruenig> rolfen, you can play unencrypted dvds fine without it so that would account for being able to play some and not others
[03:32] <PurpZeY> dissection: I understand that hibernate can be sort of iffy.
[03:32] <rolfen> bruenig: aaaah ok thanks!
[03:32] <dissection> PurpZeY: Didn't have any problems till just this once. Not sure if that was a known issue.
[03:32] <dissection> !ophcrack
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ophcrack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:33] <dBgBdWolf> l0phtcrack?
[03:33] <Ademan> juano__: hrm, well i'm sorry, that's about all i've got
[03:33] <juano__> Ademan: i found out that there is a file missing
[03:33] <juano__> Ademan: libwfb.so ?
[03:33] <PurpZeY> dissection: Could just be a one time weird kind of scenario...but like I said, I hear that hibernate is iffy and suspend is a better bet. although personally I don't use either.

[03:33] <pppoe_dude> hi jedix
[03:33] <jedix> can someone help me with a text display problem on a hdtv?
[03:34] <dBgBdWolf> does ubuntu handle lvm on raid during installation?
[03:34] <jedix> dBgBdWolf: no :/
[03:34] <bruenig> !raid | dBgBdWolf
[03:34] <ubotu> dBgBdWolf: Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[03:34] <jedix> dBgBdWolf: I went through that about a week ago, neither of those urls will cover install
[03:34] <porcho> astro76: do you know something about the samba problem I'm facing?
[03:34] <persept> guys, i added a swap drive in the livecd, but it doesn't seem to be using it
[03:34] <Ademan> juano__: well that's for fbdev i'm pretty sure, which your system shouldn't be trying to use at all
[03:35] <juano__> Ademan: i see
[03:35] <juano__> Ademan: darn this is weird...
[03:35] <jedix> so, I have everything working on my tv, only the characters are about the size of a .
[03:35] <Ademan> juano__: http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg387948.html   http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg387237.html    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/+bug/107831
[03:35] <persept> i did mkswap and swapon, but it's not using the swap to add extra space to /
[03:35] <astro76> porcho, no sorry
[03:35] <dBgBdWolf> oh. hrm.
[03:35] <jedix> It's very very annoying
[03:35] <Ademan> juano__: hopefully one of those will help, i just sort of googled libwfb and those were the first hits, so i guess it's not terribly uncommon
[03:35] <jedix> and it seems I'm talking to myself
[03:36] <juano__> Ademan: LOL i got the X5500
[03:36] <juano__> Ademan: thats my problem for sure
[03:36] <gumpish> Yeeaargh! What is required to recieve DCC files in xchat?
[03:36] <bruenig> gumpish, an internet connection?
[03:36] <gumpish> i think i have that much
[03:36] <Tracekill> I don't think you do.
[03:36] <bruenig> gumpish, ok so dcc away
[03:36] <Tracekill> Check.
[03:37] <nich0s> Ok, I am almost done bothering you guys for the night, but I have one more question for you all; How would one go about accessing a Terminal through a router from a public IP?
[03:37] <bruenig> !ssh | nich0s
[03:37] <ubotu> nich0s: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[03:37] <Tracekill> nich0s, you mean like sshing into your home computer?
[03:37] <astro76> nich0s, you have to forward port 22
[03:37] <LiveUSB> Any good shell scripters in the house, I'm trying to write a script to start VPN access while simultaneously launch TS client. only problem is that both apps want focus to the Shell window. (so I can't start TS client untill the VPN is exited, or vice versa)
[03:38] <astro76> nich0s, and use dyndns if you have a dynamic ip
[03:38] <bruenig> LiveUSB, just put & after the first one so that it launches in the background and the script keeps moving
[03:38] <nich0s> astro76: dyndns?
[03:38] <rolfen> now i'm installing libdvdcss and why on earth is synaptic downloading the flash plugin
[03:38] <bruenig> or put it on both if you want
[03:38] <rolfen> i didnt ask for the flash plugin!
[03:38] <bruenig> rolfen, use apt-get, gui help is difficult to give
[03:39] <meshuggah99> i've got a question
[03:39] <meshuggah99> anyone here gotten limewire to work
[03:39] <weltschmerz> meshuggah99 sure.  easy.

[03:39] <rolfen> bruenig: no proble... i'll just let it install the damn plugin... i think it because i canceled it from a previous installation

[03:40] <bruenig> meshuggah99, you go to websites like pirate bay

[03:40] <meshuggah99> i have bittornado
[03:40] <bruenig> I use deluge now because I don't need rss but utorrent is still the king
[03:40] <enterneo> Deluge !
[03:41] <bruenig> utorrent's rss is the greatest
[03:41] <enterneo> utorrent works over on Feisty ?

[03:41] <leperkhanz> utorrent is by far the best torrent program.
[03:41] <bruenig> oh please don't
[03:42] <enterneo> one should prefer apps via wine than apps dedicated to ubuntu ?
[03:42] <leperkhanz> even under wine.
[03:42] <EADG> Is there an linux equivalent to Torrent Harvester? Thats the only program I miss from XP (it don't work in Wine)
[03:42] <bruenig> azureus is vomit
[03:42] <bruenig> enterneo, if it is better, yes
[03:42] <jez> uTorrent love.
[03:42] <bruenig> EADG, what does torrent harvester do
[03:42] <phil_pi> azureus is ok if java runtime is configured correctly, otherwise ktorrent is good
[03:42] <juano__> Ademan: ok , so im trying a 91 file update
[03:42] <leperkhanz> you have to use an older one though, utorrent is evil now.
[03:42] <EADG> bruenig: search program
[03:42] <juano__> Ademan: lets see what happens there
[03:42] <jez> What leperkhanz said!
[03:42] <jez> :D
[03:42] <leperkhanz> i wish there was a 1:1 utorrent that was native in linux.
[03:42] <bruenig> azureus is better when jre isn't configured because that way it won't launch
[03:42] <enterneo> hey! i aint getting good video output at fullscreen @ vlc
[03:42] <bruenig> EADG, there are many search engines
[03:43] <dissection> What is a good download manager for Ubuntu for resuming HTTP downloads?
[03:43] <bruenig> dissection, wget
[03:43] <phil_pi> yeah little blue froggy pops up & disappears

[03:43] <rolfen> bruenig: sorry... still not working any other ideas? :)
[03:43] <dissection> bruenig: I mean GUI
[03:43] <slavik> any idea how to fix this http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/9494/screenshothn9.png in a theme?
[03:44] <bruenig> leperkhanz, utorrent through wine is literally flawless
[03:44] <John`> I have ubuntu feisty and I am trying to play a asx streaming video from a site on firefox 2.0.0.4 and it doesn't seem to work.  is there a way around it?
[03:44] <LordLimecat> how do you remove settings from gconf? i apt-get --purged a program, but it still shows up in gconf
[03:44] <leperkhanz> well, it's slow to boot (as it's in wine), and I HAVE had crashes.  But it is pretty damned close to flawless.

[03:44] <bruenig> leperkhanz, slow to boot? like 2 seconds?
[03:45] <John`> bruenig: I have mplayer plugin..
[03:45] <persept> does anyone have experience with the LiveCD?
[03:45] <persept> I need to add extra 'memory' to the machine via a usb-drive, while it's running the livecd, my friends hard drive failed and i'm trying to give him a usable computer in the meantime
[03:45] <leperkhanz> a native clone WOULD be > wine utorrent.  That's all I'm saying.
[03:45] <leperkhanz> more like 10 seconds. :D
[03:45] <John`> bruenig: I have all the codecs required toplay video
[03:45] <rolfen> bruenig: oh wait... it is working with vlc but not with totem... thanks man!
[03:45] <bruenig> leperkhanz, you need to get off of that P 1
[03:45] <obf213> ok , so i am retarded, but i installed php5, and mysql, and i have no clue where the directory is
[03:45] <persept> the machine runs very slow, because of the low memory, can anyone help, it's really important
[03:46] <Pelo> persept,  have you considered running ubuntu off the usb drive instead ?
[03:46] <bruenig> persept, you don't want to install it?
[03:46] <leperkhanz> lol amd 64.... brat
[03:46] <persept> bruenig: no, I can't, dead hard drive
[03:46] <Zambezi> Which packages is need for VMWare? I get error when I try to install vmware-player
[03:46] <leperkhanz> I did futz my wine somehow though. :P
[03:46] <leperkhanz> this gutsy iso is taking FOREVER.
[03:46] <bruenig> leperkhanz, well on my incredibly weak computer, from like 6 years ago, it launches almost immediately, faster than any linux client
[03:47] <LiveUSB> persept yup what you need to know?
[03:47] <Pelo> Zambezi,  install  vmware-server from the add/remove app in  menu > applications
[03:47] <leperkhanz> yeah, I'll give you that.  All the linux torrent programs blow.
[03:47] <phil_pi> vlc > totem for codecs
[03:47] <Pelo> leperkhanz,  utorrent on wine
[03:47] <bruenig> phil_pi, vlc just uses mplayer's ffmpeg
[03:47] <Music_Shuffle> ktorrent is good.
[03:47] <leperkhanz> Pelo: You missed the 10 previous comments :D
[03:47] <sun_> bo
[03:47] <persept> LiveUSB: well I tried adding the usb drive as a swap drive, but I can't really tell if that is doing anything at all, i don't think it's even using it
[03:47] <Pelo> leperkhanz,  probably, I only came in a minute or so ago
[03:47] <leperkhanz> pfft.  Seriously, have you used utorrent?
[03:47] <dissection> I made a mistake while I added something to my menu. How do I remove it? When I go into alacarte, it doesn't show up there although its there in my menu :[
[03:48] <bruenig> phil_pi, it has not developed a single codec
[03:48] <phil_pi> yeah never got used to the mplayer gui put the codecs are good
[03:48] <LiveUSB> persept: it won't do too much.. how slow of a smachine are we talking here?
[03:48] <Pelo> leperkhanz,  what that last comment meant for me ?
[03:48] <leperkhanz> deluge, azureus, transmission, all are very very very poor implementations compared to utorrent.  even under wine on a borked setup.
[03:48] <HeaDSHoT`> !info ubotu > HeaDSHoT`
[03:48] <leperkhanz> no.
[03:48] <leperkhanz> :)
[03:49] <leperkhanz> that was for ktorrent fan somewhere.
[03:49] <bruenig> deluge is nice, it allows you to block dangerous IPs and utorrent doesn't
[03:49] <bruenig> that is one thing it has on utorrent
[03:49] <noldon> can someone help me
[03:49] <phil_pi> ktorrent is ok
[03:49] <persept> LiveUSB: the computers is fast enough, but there's only 1gb of ram, and only 120 mb of ram are free, so I want to have it use the flash drive
[03:49] <Zambezi> Pelo, Giving it a shot now on my Feistyserver.
[03:49] <phil_pi> not fancy
[03:49] <Pelo> bruenig,  utorrent has ipfilter,  it's just not a rightclick thing ,  to avoid abuse
[03:49] <persept> LiveUSB: will ubuntu fit on a 1gb flash drive?
[03:49] <leperkhanz> utorrent isn't fancy either.  That's part of why it rocks.
[03:50] <Pelo> Zambezi,  oops,  didn'T know you were running without gui
[03:50] <bruenig> utorrent is only good because of RSS and it being light
[03:50] <LiveUSB> persept: thats's no where near what I would call "slow" I'm talking about my Celeron 1.3 with 386Mb ram.. you should be fine with 1 GB
[03:50] <leperkhanz> it is also the best designed ergonomic app, of the torrent clients.
[03:50] <Pelo> bruenig,  and exactly what more do you want / need ?
[03:50] <phil_pi> friends use utorrent, i stayed away cuz it's windows only, didn't want to use wine
[03:50] <persept> LiveUSB: will it fit on a flash drive though?
[03:50] <LiveUSB> persept: I'm only using 2 GB cause Of all the junk i like to carry.
[03:50] <Zambezi> Pelo, You couldn't. Here is the errormessages: http://www.pastebin.ca/627035
[03:51] <bruenig> Pelo, I just mean to say, the second deluge gets rss, it jumps over utorrent
[03:51] <rockets> is there a way to get an evince plugin for firefox, like the way adobe reader works on windows
[03:51] <bruenig> if I knew python well enough, I would try to create a plugin
[03:51] <LiveUSB> persept: I'm going to PM you otherwise it's going to get messy in here
[03:51] <bruenig> rockets, no
[03:51] <rockets> bruenig, sadface
[03:51] <leperkhanz> wine is cool for utorrent, and I like it for truck dismount.  lol
[03:51] <bruenig> rockets, opening pdfs in the browser is so jarring
[03:51] <Pelo> bruenig,   we are of one mind on this,  unless there is a linux version of ut first of course
[03:51] <rockets> bruenig, to each their own
[03:51] <phil_pi> is deluge > ktorrent ?
[03:52] <rockets> phil_pi, It doesn't have as many features but its a lot prettier.
[03:52] <rockets> phil_pi, so I like it.
[03:52] <obf213> does anyone in here use beagle. if yes. does it index your filesystem. because for some reason it doesnt index mine.
[03:52] <phil_pi> ok, might try it
[03:52] <rockets> obf213, you can control where it indexes. right click the little icon and hit preferences
[03:52] <bruenig> rockets, I did it on windows back in the day but am very happy with external now, you might like it, but you can install adobe reader in linux including plugin
[03:52] <bruenig> !info mozilla-acroread
[03:52] <leperkhanz> i liked it better than ktorrent, but not anywhere near as much as utorrent.
[03:52] <ubotu> Package mozilla-acroread does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:52] <rockets> bruenig, yeah but adobe reader isn't FLOSS so I'm not installing it.
[03:52] <obf213> yeah. but filesystem is not a folder rockets
[03:52] <Pelo> Zambezi,  sorry that error msg was a bit over my head,  I can'T help with that
[03:52] <rockets> obf213, I mean't filesystem. Sorry, old habits die hard
[03:52] <bruenig> rockets, so you didn't install flash?
[03:53] <rockets> bruenig, I did. But thats because there is no viable OSS alternative.
[03:53] <P_Kable> what file is equivalent to modprobe.conf or modules.conf under ubuntu ?
[03:53] <rockets> bruenig, the OSS flash clone is a joke at the moment
[03:53] <Zambezi> Anyone know which package replaced vmnet in Feisty?
[03:53] <bruenig> P_Kable, there is a modprobe.conf I believe
[03:53] <Pelo> P_Kable,  should be the same ,  ubuntu is only another linux distro
[03:53] <rockets> But when gnash stops sucking I'll use it.
[03:53] <phil_pi> the worst was flash 9 required for youtube but the linux version was delayed forever
[03:54] <dissection> What can I use for editing my menu?
[03:54] <P_Kable> where is tghat file then ?
[03:54] <bruenig> phil_pi, flash 9 was never required for youtube
[03:54] <GamingX> Guys Is there a VLC media player for Ubuntu?
[03:54] <rockets> GamingX, sudo apt-get install vlc

[03:54] <phil_pi> i couldn't get it to play
[03:54] <nich0s> OK, I am totally lost on this whole tunneling, ssh/ssl madness and I could really use some help if anyone is available.
[03:54] <bruenig> phil_pi, you had the wrong thing installed then, I think you can still work it with flash 7

[03:55] <bruenig> mplayer > vlc
[03:55] <phil_pi> that would make sense, no reason to require flash 9 for simple videos but a lot of sites do
[03:55] <rockets> mplayer is better then vlc but vlc plays more formats
[03:55] <GamingX> !info vlc
[03:55] <ubotu> vlc: multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6.release-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 1131 kB, installed size 3192 kB
[03:55] <bruenig> rockets, vlc does not play more formats, vlc uses the mplayer library for codecs
[03:55] <Zambezi> Pelo, I think I found the error now.
[03:55] <Pelo> Zambezi,  searching in synaptic for vmnet turns up  hercules and netpipe-pvm
[03:55] <nich0s> rockets: I have set up a dyndns account that is linked to my ip, I have forwarded port 22 on the router, yet I'm still not able to connect to my term by puclic ip or hostname?
[03:55] <rockets> really? it always seemed to me like VLC could handle more
[03:56] <bruenig> rockets, I built it for zenwalk, the entire thing is built on ffmpeg
[03:56] <bruenig> which is developed by mplayer
[03:56] <GamingX> so where do I get the codecs?
[03:56] <Pelo> Zambezi,  good for you , glad I couldn'T help
[03:56] <rockets> nich0s, you forwarded the port to the computer you want to ssh to?
[03:56] <astro76> nich0s, you're probably not going to be able to do it from there, the router blocks it from going out and back in
[03:56] <rockets> nich0s, are you sure you installed an ssh server
[03:56] <LiveUSB> persept: hope the PM helps you out a bit
[03:56] <phil_pi> Pelo: hercules is great if you want to run a mainframe OS on your PC

[03:56] <rockets> nich0s, also you need to get an external pc to test it
[03:56] <nich0s> rockets: I am on the ssh server atm
[03:56] <dissection> I have a problem with alacarte. After I add something to the menu, I cannot remove it. It doesn't get listed in alacarte although its there in the menu. I was told to reboot but even that didn't fix the problem. Is there an alternate app I can use for editing/adding/removing from my menu?
[03:56] <nich0s> rockets: I'll connect to a wifi point, brb.
[03:56] <Pelo> GamingX,  with totem  codecs will get installed as needed,  in mplayer and vlc you donT' need them
[03:56] <juano__> can someone make a Nvidia geforce x5500 work under ubuntu 7.04 ????
[03:57] <persept> LiveUSB: I didn't get any PM for you
[03:57] <rockets> nich0s, not good enough.
[03:57] <Pelo> phil_pi,  direct that to Zambezi
[03:57] <rockets> nich0s, from wifi youll only be able to test based on its internal ip. e.g. 192.168.x.x
[03:57] <nich0s> rockets: Someone elses wifi isn't good enough?
[03:57] <rockets> nich0s, ah , sorry, somebody elses will work fine
[03:57] <Zambezi> Pelo, Hercules is installed, but I'm installing the other. I tried to start wmnet, but it said I didn't have X so it's probably why it's not started, and that's why VMWare can't load.
[03:57] <GamingX> If I type sudo apt-get install mplayer, will I be able to install mplayer?
[03:57] <HeaDSHoT`> k\
[03:57] <nich0s> rockets: I went from zero to lost in .2 seconds... :P brb
[03:57] <LiveUSB> persept odd.. I've written .. ohh well in any event .. visit  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent to see how to boot live.. you should only need 1gb,
[03:58] <Pelo> Zambezi,  sounds like a decent diagnosis
[03:58] <Pelo> GamingX,  it will install mplayer yes
[03:58] <obf213> rockets. i dont understand for example if i search firefox it shows nothing
[03:58] <obf213> it says 0 matches although ubuntu comes iwth firefox
[03:58] <LiveUSB> I've found it can be a bit tight if you like to install a bunch of apps with only 300MB left on a drive but it's quite manageable..
[03:58] <rockets> obf213, beagle doesn't run programs as far as i know
[03:58] <rockets> obf213, you need deskbar for that
[03:58] <GamingX> what does it mean "sudo apt-get install mplayer"
[03:58] <rockets> GamingX, type that in a terminal
[03:58] <obf213> beagle. there should be a folder called firefox
[03:59] <enterneo> sudo - supervisor do
[03:59] <obf213> it doesn't show me anything from the linux install
[03:59] <Zambezi> Pelo, I'm going to install X-server now just to play around for awhile and then reinstall again.
[03:59] <rockets> obf213, where is that *directory* located
[03:59] <alecw1> How do you edit touchpad preferences in Ubuntu? (I want to edit the sensitivity and speed)
[03:59] <obf213> rockets its the file system
[03:59] <obf213> the whole install
[03:59] <alecw1> !touchpad
[03:59] <GamingX> I know but I would like to understand what the command means?
[03:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about touchpad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:59] <rockets> obf213, ok, beagle by default doesnt index your whole filesystem
[03:59] <Pelo> GamingX,    sudo is the command to say you have permission ( ti will ask for your password), apt-get is the application to manage packages,  install is the instructions,  and mplayer is the packages you want
[03:59] <rockets> obf213, that would create too much disk  IO
[03:59] <obf213> ok
[03:59] <rockets> obf213, you have to set it in the preferences if you want it to index everything. but youre going to regret it
[03:59] <GamingX> So automatically it downloads from the net?
[03:59] <rockets> GamingX, yes.
[04:00] <rockets> GamingX, for an easier way, see synaptic
[04:00] <obf213> rockets ok
[04:00] <Pelo> GamingX,  yes
[04:00] <rolfen> dissection: i believe there is a bunch of text files that you can edit to modify your menu... dont know where there are though
[04:00] <phil_pi> Zambezi: Hercules isn't a replacement for vmnet, it emulates an IBM S360, S390 or zOS environment
[04:00] <rockets> dissection, you can edit the menu by right clicking on it and clicking edit
[04:00] <alecw1> Where can I edit the settings for touchpad sensitivity in ubuntu?
[04:00] <astro76> alecw1, install gsynaptic
[04:00] <rockets> phil_pi, hah I'm going to run Slackware S/390 on top of x86 ubuntu, for no reason.
[04:00] <LiveUSB> persept: the speed difference from CD to Flash drive is awesome.. "almost" as fast as an installed system.
[04:01] <astro76> alecw1, sorry install gsynaptics
[04:01] <GamingX> Amazing what you can do with shell commands, I wouldnt have believed it if I had not seen it....
[04:01] <persept> LiveUSB: ok cool i'm looking at that
[04:01] <rockets> GamingX, apt-get is pretty old now
[04:01] <HeaDSHoT`> headshot hi
[04:01] <alecw1> ok done
[04:01] <dissection> rockets: I tried that too but the a minimized window named "Starting Main Menu" shows up and disappears. I'm not able to use that either. Anything else?
[04:01] <alecw1> where can I edit it
[04:01] <Zambezi> phil_pi, I tried to install VMWare for a virtualserver installation, but it didn't work. :-/
[04:01] <GamingX> but I am new!!
[04:01] <nich0s> ls
[04:02] <rockets> dissection, nah, thats how I always do it. File a bug maybe?
[04:02] <ExiledSoldier> Whenever I use grub to try to switch to Windows I get the error 'the selected drive does not exist'  anyone know how to fix this?
[04:02] <phil_pi> rockets, mainframe linux is hot.  eliminates huge $$ licensing s/w from ibm
[04:02] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier, pastebin  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:02] <alecw1> where is xorg.conf again?
[04:02] <Talcite> hey guys, I'm having trouble with setting up my mic, can someone help out?
[04:02] <dissection> If I choose "revert" in alacarte, will it be reverted to the original settings as how it was when I first installed ubuntu, or will it only remove the menus I added manually?
[04:02] <rockets> phil_pi, yeah but doesnt not having the Mainframe OS defeat the point of buying a mainframe?
[04:02] <Talcite> I've already compiled the ALSA drivers myself, and also performed a fresh kernel install
[04:03] <Pelo> alecw1,  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:03] <rockets> phil_pi, otherwise couldnt you just cluster a bunch of commodity x86 hardware and run linux on that?
[04:03] <Talcite> I'm using an Intel_HDA chipset
[04:03] <Talcite> sigmatel 9221 to be exact
[04:03] <Pelo> Talcite,   terminal > alsamixer , make sure the mic isn'T muted
[04:03] <Amaranth> dissection: only changes you've made in alacarte
[04:03] <phil_pi> gnu/linux os on mainframe hardware still good, used by universities
[04:04] <nich0s> rockets: Oook.  I am able to connect, yet I am getting an error stating that access is denied?
[04:04] <Talcite> Pelo: it's not
[04:04] <rockets> nich0s, heh. idk man.
[04:04] <rockets> nich0s, im in a bit of a haze right now, sorry
[04:04] <Pelo> Talcite,  usb mic ?
[04:04] <nich0s> rockets: No probs. :)
[04:04] <Talcite> Pelo: I tried that, but it didn't detect it for some reason
[04:04] <rockets> nich0s, try #openssh
[04:04] <Talcite> Pelo: any ideas?
[04:05] <alecw1> When I try to run "Gsynaptics, I get this: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set "SHMConfig 'true' in xorg.conf." However, I can't find the tag "SHMconfig"
[04:05] <nich0s> astro76: Oook.  I am able to connect, yet I am getting an error stating that access is denied?
[04:05] <Talcite> Pelo: the forums are so useless =/
[04:05] <Pelo> Talcite,  look up your model in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:05] <astro76> alecw1, add line: Option		"SHMConfig"		"on"
[04:05] <Pelo> Talcite,  it's actualy a great resource, you just need to do a little digging
[04:05] <jacekowski> where gnome keep session manager socket?
[04:05] <astro76> alecw1, to the touchpad section
[04:05] <alecw1> ok
[04:05] <Talcite> Pelo: all the posts are the same solutions 0.o
[04:05] <astro76> alecw1, or "true" instead of "on", not sure it matters
[04:06] <phil_pi> tweaking synaptics settings in xorg.conf is an adventure
[04:06] <crysalys> need link for mp3 codecs
[04:06] <astro76> alecw1, then need to restart x-server with ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:06] <rockets> phil_pi, dont bother, there are gui tools for it
[04:06] <Pelo> Talcite, that's the best I can do for you,  try asking again periodicaly ( like every 30 min)

[04:07] <Eleaf> hello, I'm going to try installing drivers from nvidia.com, is there an easy way to uninstall them later?
[04:07] <phil_pi> still couldn't disable the tapping using the gui
[04:07] <DakotaSmith> Hi, all ... I'm typing this on my new Dell (not preloaded Ubuntu) that I just got working with an ancient -- and GIGANTIC -- VCON monitor.  It's going to be a MythTV box.  :D
[04:07] <alecw1> hmm... For some reason, my touchpad is really slow. Is there a way to change this?

[04:08] <astro76> alecw1, if your hardware supports it you can do two-finger tap for right click and three-finger tap for middle click, I was surprised to find out that worked
[04:08] <DakotaSmith> Interesting ... never saw a channel bot set up to do tech support.  Kewlness.  :)
[04:09] <Pelo> DakotaSmith,  it just has trigger for common answer and links
[04:09] <Pelo> !botsnack

[04:09] <TiMiDo> obf213, /var/www
[04:10] <vontux> obf213, try copying it from the command line using sudo
[04:10] <Eleaf> is it possible to remove the nvidia drivers installed from the .run file at nvidia.com?
[04:10] <Pelo> alecw1,  do a search for your laptop model , that the best I can suggest, or try playing with the settings in xorg.conf
[04:10] <DakotaSmith> Now the real trick is ... will this frelling VCON monitor actually fit in the hole in the wall in my little hole-in-the-wall of a house?
[04:10] <vontux> does anyone here know how to solve the dvd burning issue that seems to persist in ubuntu?
[04:10] <Pelo> later folks
[04:10] <voxio> hello
[04:10] <voxio> I'm using ubuntu feisty with an ATI X1600 PRO 512MB.. When i startX i just get a blank screen. The last entry in the Xorg.0.log is (II) fglrx(0): [DRI]  installation complete
[04:10] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: like this? http://pastebin.com/d5bbf9fc0
[04:10] <voxio> I'm using the 8.39.4 fglrx drivers. Any ideas?
[04:10] <Pelo> vontux,  what dvd burning issue is this
[04:10] <cafuego> I get the idea fglrx drivers suck.
[04:11] <astro76> alecw1, sorry don't know about that, I didn't need to change mine
[04:11] <obf213> TiMiDo
[04:11] <obf213> i tried sudo /var/ww
[04:11] <vontux> Pelo: I am unable to burn dvd's I get an "improper media type" error from k3b and nautalis
[04:11] <obf213> and nothing happened
[04:11] <alecw1> ok, on the hunt again...
[04:11] <vontux> obf213: sudo cp /var/www /whereveryouwantit
[04:11] <alecw1> LOTS of problems with the Dell Latitude D630
[04:11] <Pelo> vontux, I won't say that is a persisting issue since I have never encountered it ,  are you suere you aer not tring to burn a dvd in a cd burner ?
[04:12] <DakotaSmith> Hmf ... this monitor is pure suckage.  No wonder they gave it away at work ... guess in a couple of months I'm going to have to invest in a decent flatscreen.
[04:12] <vontux> Pelo: positive, the burner says "dvd-rw dvd recordable"
[04:12] <Pelo> DakotaSmith,  you get what you pay for
[04:12] <vladuz976> is there a development version of gimp 2.4 available packaged?
[04:12] <Pelo> vontux,  and what are you putting in it ?
[04:13] <vontux> obf213: did you manage to copy?
[04:13] <HeaDSHoT`> vontux can u read dvds with it ?
[04:13] <Pelo> vladuz976,  try asking in #gimp
[04:13] <vontux> Pelo: a 1-16x dvd burner
[04:13] <DakotaSmith> Pela, no doubt.  But I'm divorced, so I'm broke.  I did, however, have a really good interview today for a Linux sysadmin position.  It'd be a $30K salary jump.  :)
[04:13] <varun0> vladuz976: why do you want it packaged? :-)
[04:13] <vladuz976> variant, easier
[04:13] <alecw1> arg! Does ANYBODY have ANY ideas for changing the touchpad speed... it's soooo sloooow.... and I can't find a HOWTO.
[04:13] <Pelo> vontux, what does the media you want to burn to say ? what is written on it ?
[04:13] <vontux> HeaDSHoT: yeah and it recognizes them as dvds until I try to burn them, these same disks burn on windows
[04:14] <obf213> vontux it says missing destination file operand
[04:14] <varun0> vladuz976: haha.....fair enough. I'd to a Google search, barring which I think you'll have to choice but to compile
[04:14] <obf213> what does that
[04:14] <vontux> obf213: what does what?
[04:14] <limeetr> I have installed the ubuntu-desktop on 7.04 server, how do I start the GUI? thank you
[04:14] <obf213> cp: missing destination file operand after `/var/www/timi'
[04:14] <varun0> vladuz976: if there are other packages (rpms or something) I think there are conversion scripts?
[04:14] <Music_Shuffle> limeetr, startx ?
[04:14] <Pelo> alecw1,  have you tried in  menu > system > prefs > mouse ?
[04:14] <varun0> limeetr: startx
[04:14] <Talcite> sigh... I hate how they put that new licensing fee on internet radio
[04:14] <vladuz976> variant, i just thought there might be a repo that everyone used and i havent found it yet. i thought i just ask. but i guess from source is the best bet now
[04:14] <vontux> obf213, do you know what "cp" is?
[04:14] <Talcite> my favorite station went off the air
[04:14] <alecw1> Pelo, I looked in there, but nothing helped.
[04:14] <vladuz976> variant, too much trouble
[04:15] <nich0s> Does anyone feel like assisting me with an openssh problem?
[04:15] <varun0> vladuz976: don't know off the top of my head, sorry.
[04:15] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: http://pastebin.com/d5bbf9fc0
[04:15] <DakotaSmith> vontux, first thing I'd look at is the media.  A DVD-RW won't burn DVD+RW, for example.  I almost never use anything but DVD-Rs.
[04:15] <obf213> vontux no
[04:15] <varun0> vladuz976: it doesn't have to be :-) just might take some time
[04:15] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,  ok hold on
[04:15] <vladuz976> varun0, thanks anyways
[04:15] <vontux> Pelo: tdk DVD-R 4.7 GB 1-16x
[04:15] <varun0> nich0s: depends on the problem :-)
[04:15] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: alright.
[04:15] <vontux> DakotaSmith: the drive and disks are -r
[04:15] <limeetr> it says that Startx is currently not installed
[04:15] <varun0> limeetr: lower case s
[04:15] <vladuz976> variant, compiling gimp i remember just takes a bit of time, thats why i wanted a package
[04:15] <varun0> limeetr: startx
[04:15] <limeetr> startx I menatr
[04:16] <DakotaSmith> vontux, what are you using to burn it?
[04:16] <nich0s> varun0: I try to log in to the SSH server from outside my network and I get "Access Denied".
[04:16] <limeetr> I meant startx
[04:16] <willzzz> i have a programming q
[04:16] <willzzz> i'm doing intro to java... the sun-java6-jdk ubuntu pkg
[04:16] <c_lisp> just ask willzzz
[04:16] <Pelo> vontux,  fyi ,  4.7 gb dvd don'T actualy contain  4.7 gig of data,  more like 4.4
[04:16] <varun0> vladuz976: just kick it off before you go to bed
[04:16] <vontux> obf213: if you don't know basic command line commands, I would hold off on doing anything until you learn them to prevent damaging your system, try googling "unix tutorial" that will give you the basic knowledge you need :)
[04:16] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, who are you trying to log in as?
[04:16] <willzzz> i'm trying to import javax.swing.*
[04:16] <varun0> nich0s: you might be able to get port forwarding setup
[04:16] <willzzz> the import with the sun-java6-jdk is not there for javac
[04:16] <vladuz976> varun0, yeah well i just got up and went to work
[04:17] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: my account
[04:17] <vontux> Pelo: well I can't burn any amount of data on them period :(
[04:17] <c_lisp> sorry don't know java just c++ c and pascal
[04:17] <varun0> vladuz976: haha.....fair enough
[04:17] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, it's OUTSIDE your network that has a problem?  Yeah, you need your firewall to forward port 22 to your Linux box.
[04:17] <limeetr> if the desktop is already installed and the system claims that "startx" is currently installed, what would be my next step? tahnks
[04:17] <vladuz976> varun0, anyways i'll just let it run in the background
[04:17] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier, did you add that windows menu entry yourself ?
[04:18] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: I can connect to the box, it refuses to recognize my uname/pw.
[04:18] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: yeah.
[04:18] <limeetr> I meant the system says that "startx" is not currently installed
[04:18] <juano__> can someone tell me what driver i should install for a geforce x5500 ??? ive tried a few nvidia-glx but no luck
[04:18] <varun0> limeetr: do you have X setup?
[04:18] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, you're not trying to log in as root?  What happens if you use ssh -vvv username@host?  Usually verbose mode will reveal a lot of detailed info.
[04:18] <nickrud> limeetr, if you want X, install xserver-xorg
[04:19] <limeetr> know, how do I get it setup?
[04:19] <varun0> juano__: just download the driver install script from the nvidia site, that should take care of it
[04:19] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier, ok  after line 143  add a line  map (hd0,hd1)   then map (hd1,hd0) , change the root line to root (hd0,0)  and add a line afte make active  savedefault
[04:19] <limeetr> sudo apt-get xserver-xorg
[04:19] <juano__> varun0: mm i tried it and my problem is that when i reboot with nvidia instead of nv, xserver just doesnt start
[04:19] <vontux> omg!!! I am such a moron!!! I couldn't see the + well enough on my burner!!! my burner is dvd+r recordable!!! lol
[04:19] <nickrud> limeetr, apt-get install xserver-xorg
[04:19] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: I'm trying to get to the box off of a windows laptop using a proggie called Putty, I don't know if it has a verbose mode. I'm not trying to log in as root...
[04:19] <enterneo> y is vlc player's fullscreen b8r over vista than ubuntu?
[04:19] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,  show me the mod before trying
[04:20] <juano__> varun0: maybe i am missing something in xorg.conf ?
[04:20] <limeetr> I will try that
[04:20] <varun0> juano__: what message does it give when you try and start X?
[04:20] <astro76> nich0s, can you ssh in through the local network? that will determine if it's the router or the server
[04:20] <nickrud> limeetr, you'll need a desktop as well, that's only the framework for a graphical system
[04:20] <juano__> varun0: it sais mostly that the modules cant load
[04:20] <Pelo> alecw1,  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489166&highlight=touchpad+speed
[04:20] <vontux> Pelo, DakotaSmith, others: thx for the help, but turns out I misread my drive, it is plus r....lol all that headache for nothing, I though all dvd burners in my house were -r...:)
[04:20] <juano__> varun0: its a quite generic error
[04:20] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: for the root its 1,0 because its a seperate HDD does it matter?
[04:20] <varun0> juano__: can you pastebin the error?
[04:20] <nich0s> I am ssh'd to the term right now using Irssi to talk to you. :P
[04:21] <Nutubuntu> vontux,  at least that resolves the issue :)
[04:21] <juano__> varun0: ok, ill be right back
[04:21] <BeGood> nich0s, configure the router to forward request from the port that the ssh server uses to the server's internal address
[04:21] <varun0> juano__: cool
[04:21] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, ah yes, PuTTY -- my favorite Windows app.  :)  Not sure how to do verbose mode on that.  It's a pain in the ass, but you might try getting the Cygwin utilities.  They include a port of OpenSSH, which you call from their port of BASH.
[04:21] <vontux> Nubuntu: yeah, at least I can read -r though :)
[04:21] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,   windows won'T boot from the "second" hdd, so you need to remap it as the first one , hence the two lines,   then  the line to change the location to boot from
[04:21] <juano__> varun0: how do i make a startx and log the output to a file ??
[04:21] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,  I've had this problem in the past
[04:21] <juano__> varun0: startx > log.txt
[04:21] <juano__> e.g
[04:21] <varun0> juano__: hmm...... I think so
[04:21] <Nutubuntu> vontux, yes, in a good light ;P
[04:22] <varun0> juano__: I think it also logs to /var/log/Xorg.0.log or something, not sure
[04:23] <nickrud> varun0, it logs to .xsession-errors
[04:23] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, also, if you get the Cyqwom utilities, your Windows box will love you for the rest of your life.  ;)
[04:23] <varun0> nickrud: oh. what does it log to /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[04:23] <nickrud> varun0, the X system startup
[04:23] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: LOL!
[04:23] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: http://pastebin.com/d7938173a
[04:23] <varun0> nickrud: ahhh........so errors go to .xsession-errors.........gotcha.........thanks!
[04:23] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,  hold on
[04:23] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: I had that on a previous install, I think my fav aspect was the ability to ls from command prompt.
[04:24] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier,  that should be it, give it a shot
[04:24] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: ok thanks
[04:24] <vontux> obf213: http://mally.stanford.edu/~sr/computing/basic-unix.html
[04:24] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, and you can do cute things, like see your Windows registry from a bash shell ... actually see and delete stuff in the IE cache, and run shell scripts against your own and networked computers.  I drop into bash under cygwin for a huge amount of Windows system administration.
[04:24] <ziggy> I have a question. How come I cant run teamspeak and my music player at the same time, and hear both? When ever I run more than 1 program that has audio, I can only hear 1. Whats wrong?
[04:24] <obf213> vontux thanks
[04:25] <vontux> ziggy: would you happen to be named "Kevin Ziggler"?
[04:25] <ziggy> vontux: Nope
[04:25] <DakotaSmith> It's a very weird experience indeed to type 'cd /registry/hklm' and actually see stuff there ... lol
[04:25] <vontux> ziggy: darn, you have the same nick name as a friend in high school :)
[04:25] <ziggy> He use ubuntu as well?
[04:25] <Pelo> vontux, that's only his stage name
[04:26] <vontux> ziggy: no, ubuntu didn't exist yet :)
[04:26] <ziggy> Ohh
[04:26] <vontux> Pelo: ah, of couse, there is no better stage than the internet
[04:26] <ziggy> So anyone know about that sound issue above ^^??
[04:27] <DakotaSmith> All the Internet's a stage, and all the people are merely users.  :)
[04:27] <varun0> ziggy: what soundcard do you have?
[04:27] <ziggy> caron0; On board
[04:27] <astro76> ziggy, the problem is teamspeak does not use alsa, it uses oss which blocks the sound device to anything else
[04:27] <ziggy> varun0
[04:27] <varun0> ziggy: do you know the chipset?
[04:27] <ziggy> yes 1 sec
[04:27] <vontux> DakotaSmith: too bad Shakespeare didn't live in modern times, I'm sure that is how he would have worded it......
[04:27] <jshriver> how do you turn off the firewall on Ubuntu?
[04:28] <Pelo> jshriver,  it,s not on by default
[04:28] <chowmeined> jshriver: its off by default
[04:28] <jshriver> is there a way of checking? I think I installed it a long time ago,
[04:28] <jaypro> im trying to share internet connections with one of my ethernet cards.  i tried to use firestarter, but it doesnt seem to be working.  should the file /etc/firestarter/configuration be writable?
[04:28] <jshriver> ipfw and some tools but it's been to long ago I forget
[04:28] <jshriver> using 6.10
[04:28] <DakotaSmith> Well, see y'all later.  I was actually just messing with my new used monitor.  Have a good [ day | afternoon | evening | night ]  (depending on where in the world you are).  :)
[04:28] <ziggy> Intel Desktop Board DQ965GF
[04:28] <ziggy> Its an intel
[04:28] <nich0s> DakotaSmith: Ok, cygwin = installed. Ports = forwarded. Next?
[04:28] <ziggy> yeah, :D
[04:28] <Pelo> jshriver,  you can install firestarter as a gui , it might give you some info
[04:28] <Nutubuntu> Be well, DakotaSmith
[04:29] <DakotaSmith> Oh ... sorry, nich0s  ...
[04:29] <juano__> varun0: hey
[04:29] <juano__> varun0: well this is weird
[04:29] <varun0> juano__: welcome back
[04:29] <DakotaSmith> nich0s, run 'ssh -vvv user@host, and see if it spits out a useful reason why the connection is refused.
[04:29] <jshriver> thanks that was the program :) now my system works lol
[04:29] <tamale> is there a microsoft font package?
[04:29] <juano__> varun0: now after i updates the kernel module
[04:29] <varun0> juano__: the errors should also be in ~/.xsession-errors
[04:29] <juano__> varun0: it works perfectly
[04:29] <Nutubuntu> tamale,  mscorefonts I believe
[04:29] <varun0> juano__: haha.........awesome!

[04:31] <Typwn> Has anyone gotten EQ2 to run on Ubuntu? (Just wondering)
[04:31] <orbisvicis> can i add a second mouse & keyboard section to xorg.conf ?
[04:31] <juano__> varun0: now i was wondering what the difference is between the legacy drivers and these
[04:31] <Pelo> skyfalcon866,  technicaly no one but you and root can acess your /home folder ,  but you can always look for encryption in synaptic
[04:31] <orbisvicis> for two users, 1 pc ?
[04:31] <astro76> ziggy, I believe you need to install alsa-oss
[04:31] <varun0> juano__: that's a good question. I think it's just the range of cards they support, not sure
[04:31] <ziggy> Astro
[04:31] <juano__> varun0: ah ok
[04:31] <ziggy> How do I do that?
[04:31] <astro76> ziggy, sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
[04:31] <juano__> varun0: well im going for beryl now lol
[04:31] <juano__> finally
[04:31] <Typwn> lol
[04:32] <Typwn> Beryl is interesting
[04:32] <mneptok> Beryl is dead.
[04:32] <varun0> juano__: beryl is great. love the effects :-)
[04:32] <Typwn> But too much and is completely useless
[04:32] <Nutubuntu> tamale,  msttcorefonts actually
[04:32] <Mnabil> mneptok, how dead ?
[04:32] <varun0> Typwn: useless and awesome! :-D

[04:34] <varun0> Typwn: my bad. I can understand. I lived with an alcoholic uncle for a summer and it was scary
[04:34] <Nutubuntu> ziggy please use pastebin
[04:34] <tamale> can someone please help me find a good font for firefox?  absolutely everything is way too blurry :(
[04:34] <skyfalcon866> could people view my files on a windows computer or a diffrent one
[04:35] <ziggy> ok sorry
[04:35] <astro76> ziggy, so I guess you had it installed
[04:35] <juano__> varun0: so, what you recomend me on ubuntu feisty, full gxine, or mplayer ???
[04:35] <Typwn> varun0: Try 18 years lol but yeah it's cool. I don't mind people that drink I just don't.
[04:35] <mrfeetio>  is there a way to make pidgin start a second row rather then scroll(when you have multiable conversations)?
[04:35] <nickrud> obf213, applications aren't kept in a single directory like windows; in general the executables are in /bin, the configurations are in /etc, libraries are in /usr/lib, volatile stuff is in /var and support/data files in /usr/share. For a particular app, dpkg -L <package> will show you where
[04:35] <SpeakerMania> In what format should I download fonts in? TTF?
[04:35] <varun0> skyfalcon866: you can use samba to share your folders
[04:35] <obf213> ah ok
[04:35] <skyfalcon866> no
[04:35] <varun0> juano__: I think it's a personal preference. I've had better luck with mplayer
[04:35] <Nutubuntu> skyfalcon866,  if you're worried enough to want encryption, you could look at encfs, gpg ... google "encryption linux" ought to get you there
[04:35] <varun0> juano__: I think it has better file support
[04:36] <juano__> varun0: i see, i think im going for mplayer again, yep, seems pretty open
[04:36] <varun0> Typwn: moderation is key
[04:36] <SpeakerMania> !gpg
[04:36] <ubotu> gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[04:36] <carter_> juano_ I prefer mplayer
[04:36] <skyfalcon866> i dont want to encrypt all i want to know is can people see my files from windows
[04:36] <varun0> juano__: vlc is pretty good, too
[04:36] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: if it helps, I have two seperate HDD's the Windows one is set to slave and the Ubuntu one is set to master.
[04:36] <varun0> skyfalcon866: not unless you have them shared via samba
[04:36] <SpeakerMania> !gpg | juano__
[04:36] <ziggy> But its any two programs
[04:36] <ubotu> juano__: please see above
[04:36] <carter_> skyfalcon866, not without a lot of work
[04:36] <carter_> :-)
[04:36] <ziggy> I cant run counterstrike source and my music player at the same time
[04:37] <juano__> !gpg
[04:37] <ziggy> Or something like that, any two combinations that play audio, I cant hear both
[04:37] <ubotu> gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[04:37] <Nutubuntu> skyfalcon866,  sorry, misunderstood.
[04:37] <carter_> have you made any modifications to your sound driver ziggy
[04:37] <skyfalcon866> alright
[04:37] <dissection> :(
[04:37] <SpeakerMania> When downloading fonts, should I download in TTF format?
[04:37] <Pelo> ExiledSoldier, don'T know if that matters but windows may indeed have an issue with being booted from a slive,    meet me in #grub it's a better place then here
[04:37] <ziggy> Carter_ no
[04:37] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, yes
[04:37] <ExiledSoldier> Pelo: ok
[04:37] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, and put them in ~/.fonts
[04:37] <mneptok> ziggy: that's normal
[04:38] <fistfullofroses> you should really only download open fonts, but hey...
[04:38] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, where should I put the fonts after downloading? In what directory?
[04:38] <juano__> what the gpg ?
[04:38] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, nevermind. Thanks!
[04:38] <mneptok> ziggy: ESD and OSS lock the sounh system to one source
[04:38] <nich0s> Does anyone know why I would be able to connect to an openssh server from inside my network and be able to connect to the server, but am getting a message about access denied from outside.
[04:38] <carter_> mneptok, I can run multiple sounds at once out of the box
[04:38] <nickrud> fistfullofroses, got a good link for some good ones?
[04:38] <ziggy> mneptok: So.. Thats the way it was designed? Is there a way to modify it?
[04:38] <mneptok> carter_: with apps that use the ESD or OSS audio subsystem? or only ALSA apps?
[04:38] <carter_> do you have a router nich0s?
[04:38] <varun0> nich0s: I'd check your .ssh file, and make sure your port forwarding to your ssh server
[04:39] <carter_> mneptok, I don't pay much attention to sound
[04:39] <mneptok> carter_: then there it is :)
[04:39] <nich0s> carter_: I have port 22 forwarded.
[04:39] <Stormx2> mneptok: 99% of apps have alsa (and therefore dmix) support nowadays.
[04:39] <fistfullofroses> nickrud http://www.bitstream.com/font_rendering/products/dev_fonts/vera.html
[04:39] <nickrud> fistfullofroses, got that one :)
[04:39] <mneptok> Stormx2: in CS2 one of them?
[04:39] <juano__> SpeakerMania: whats gpg ?
[04:39] <carter_> nich0s, what is between you and the outsdie network?
[04:39] <SpeakerMania> !gpg | juano__
[04:39] <nich0s> varun0: What would I be looking for in the .ssh file and where would I be able to find the .ssh file.
[04:39] <ubotu> juano__: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[04:40] <juano__> SpeakerMania: sorry for my laziness..
[04:40] <juano__> lol
[04:40] <Stormx2> mneptok: Counter Strike? Creative Studio?
[04:40] <nich0s> carter_: router with forwarded ports.
[04:40] <varun0> nich0s: /etc/sshd/.ssh I think.....
[04:40] <SpeakerMania> juano__, don't worry about it.
[04:40] <fistfullofroses> or you can go http://www.graphicpush.com/index.php?id=21
[04:40] <nerdboy1024> anyone feel like helping me troubleshoot my monitor size
[04:40] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, I can't find that directory...
[04:40] <mneptok> Stormx2: 22:36 < ziggy> I cant run counterstrike source and my music player at the same time   <--- what sound architecture do those apps use?
[04:40] <varun0> nich0s: /etc/ssh/.ssh_config
[04:40] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, yeah, you have to create it
[04:40] <Nutubuntu> nerdboy1024,  I had about 25 emails something like that this morning ;P
[04:40] <Typwn> You know it's sad when AOL has the best Virus Scanner /sigh
[04:40] <mneptok> varun0: sshd_config is the daemon config
[04:40] <ziggy> mneptok: I run it via cedega
[04:41] <Stormx2> mneptok: WINE uses alsa by default for sound
[04:41] <Stormx2> mneptok: Your media player, well, check the preferences.
[04:41] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, where do I create it? In my user folder?
[04:41] <varun0> mneptok:  /etc/ssh/ssh_config? no?
[04:41] <ziggy> mneptok: so what ever it emulates i am not sure
[04:41] <mneptok> ziggy: can you hear Rhythmbox and Totem at the same time?
[04:41] <SpeakerMania> /home/steven/.fonts? - nickrud
[04:41] <juano__> SpeakerMania: seems interesting... still dont know what its about
[04:41] <phil_pi> AOL virus scanner is a licensed version of Kaspersky -- the best
[04:41] <juano__> SpeakerMania: i mean the use
[04:41] <mneptok> varun0: /etc/ssh/ssh_config is the client config. sshd_config is the server
[04:42] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, yes. When you see ~ <-- that's shorthand for your home directory. You can use it in any command line
[04:42] <SpeakerMania> Soemone replied about it. for you and your encryption question. I have no idea, I just thought the bot could help.
[04:42] <ziggy> mneptok: I dont know
[04:42] <ziggy> mneptok: 1 sec
[04:42] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, Thanks. And the fonts should show up in GIMP?
[04:42] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, like mkdir ~/.fonts
[04:42] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, yes
[04:42] <nerdboy1024> i dunno how to change it from 800x400 to something normal like 1024x768
[04:42] <rustalot> I'm looking for the linux equivalent of MS Paint.
[04:42] <SpeakerMania> nickrud, Thanks for your help and time.
[04:42] <alex1234> KPaint
[04:43] <nich0s> varun0: What am I going to be looking for in the config file?
[04:43] <Nutubuntu> nerdboy1024,  you'll want to first back up and then edit a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:43] <nickrud> SpeakerMania, yw
[04:43] <phil_pi> nerdboy:  are you able to get x to start?
[04:43] <alex1234> i think there's a KPaint
[04:43] <ziggy> mneptok: Yes I can, I can
[04:43] <varun0> nich0s: are you sure you have your port forwarded correctly? gimme a sec to look at my config file
[04:43] <mneptok> SpeakerMania: run "fc-cache" after you install the fonts
[04:43] <mneptok> ziggy: the problem is with Cedega, then. comtact them.
[04:43] <ziggy> mneptok: I can hear two movie players
[04:43] <SpeakerMania> Okay, thanks wneptok
[04:43] <mneptok> *contact
[04:44] <nerdboy1024> yes
[04:44] <ziggy> mneptok: No its not, because I cant run teamspeak and my music player at the same time
[04:44] <BlueKnight> anyone good with wireless cards and drivers on here :)
[04:44] <nerdboy1024> gnome starts
[04:44] <ziggy> mneptok: Teamspeak is linux native
[04:44] <nerdboy1024> what do i edit in
[04:44] <nerdboy1024> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:44] <phil_pi> nerdboy: System, Preferences, Screen Resolution
[04:44] <varun0> nich0s: hm i'm not sure man. AFAIK, it shouldn't make a difference to the server where the connection is coming from, as long as it's coming to the right port
[04:44] <mneptok> ziggy: then the problem is with Teamspeak using an antiquated audio subsystem
[04:44] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, shoot
[04:44] <varun0> nich0s: is that all it says? "access denied"?
[04:44] <BlueKnight> mnabil mind going to pm?
[04:44] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, :) you are welcome
[04:44] <juano__> varun0: ok cool , i got beryl except when i load it all windows dont have title bars
[04:45] <nerdboy1024> does not have the option other than 650x480
[04:45] <nich0s> varun0: Yeah.
[04:45] <varun0> nich0s: I don't know if you already answered this, but are you trying to login as root?
[04:45] <phil_pi> if the GUI tool doesn't list your preferred resolution, you might need to dig into xorg.conf
[04:45] <ziggy> mneptok: Hmm ok
[04:45] <nickrud> ziggy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TeamSpeak has a recommended fix for sound
[04:45] <CWO4Mann> nice to have connectivity back.  i heard there was a major fiber break someplace around tucson today
[04:45] <mneptok> ziggy: it's pretty clear it's not an Ubuntu problem ;)
[04:45] <nich0s> varun0: I'm not, just my personal account.
[04:45] <nerdboy1024> what am i changing in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:45] <ziggy> mneptok: Thanks dude, I guess I will have to look more into it, because Icant run my music player and counterstrike at the same time.
[04:45] <CWO4Mann> hey ziggy
[04:45] <sun_> can anybody help me?
[04:46] <ziggy> mneptok; Its almost any two combo;s
[04:46] <CWO4Mann> there is a conflict between the two sound platforms
[04:46] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, !
[04:46] <CWO4Mann> i had the same problem
[04:46] <ziggy> Hey
[04:46] <varun0> juano__: run beryl-manager........see if that fixes it, if not let me know
[04:46] <varun0> nich0s: hm
[04:46] <mneptok> ziggy: you could always not play games and instead educate yourself about stuff. that is, if you don't like saynig, "would you like fries with that?"  >;)
[04:46] <phil_pi> sun_: somebody can help
[04:46] <sun_> who know laszlo?
[04:46] <CWO4Mann> i am not sure HOW i fixed it, but i tinkered around with the audio settings for like an hour
[04:46] <rjonesx> how do i switch between metacity and beryl? i remember there being a preferences menu somewhere.....
[04:46] <carter_> mneptok, that was harsh :-)
[04:47] <CWO4Mann> now i have my headset and mike and can listen to www.radioparadise.com all at the same time I play games
[04:47] <mneptok> carter_: hence the evil winky
[04:47] <BlueKnight> Mnabil - you getting the pms?
[04:47] <nerdboy1024> what am i looking for in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:47] <carter_> it's cool mneptok, I say "would you like these photos in one-hour?
[04:47] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, no , you should be registed on the server ( free node ) to pm :)
[04:47] <skyfalcon866> how can i password protect a zip arcieve
[04:47] <BlueKnight> wiz o, bleh my bad... one sec mnabil
[04:48] <carter_> zip passwords such skyfalcon866
[04:48] <varun0> juano__: hm. or wait..........trying adding Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" in the Devices section in your xorg.conf. I think that's what I had to do
[04:48] <CWO4Mann> zip archive when you begin to make it you designate that it is password protected
[04:48] <carter_> you can break them easily
[04:48] <ethan> hey.
[04:48] <varun0> juano__:  Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[04:48] <CWO4Mann> but it is not secure at all
[04:48] <obf213> my application tool bar messed up what is the commmand to fix that "kicker" or is that just kde
[04:48] <skyfalcon866> ?
[04:48] <varun0> juano__: (for clarity's sake)
[04:48] <mneptok> carter_: YES! i would!
[04:48] <carter_> skyfalcon866 do not depend on zip passwords for protection
[04:48] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, sorry, but now i gonna go to sleep
[04:48] <CWO4Mann> better to just encrypt using gpng
[04:48] <skyfalcon866> why
[04:48] <varun0> juano__: that will fix it
[04:48] <carter_> skyfalcon866, a cracking program can brute force them in about 30 minutes tops
[04:48] <carter_> I've never spent even an hour breaking one
[04:48] <skyfalcon866> even if i use random letters
[04:49] <mneptok> skyfalcon866: if you want a secure archive, GPG it.
[04:49] <carter_> I mean, not that I break passwords
[04:49] <CWO4Mann> why? well, if it is a file which is in need of
[04:49] <carter_> ummm, but still
[04:49] <Mnabil> BlueKnight, can you ask other one, or google it, or if it's not urgent leave me the msg and i'll try to solve it tom
[04:49] <BlueKnight> mnabil ok, cya
[04:49] <CWO4Mann> protection, then the password will not give it protection.
[04:49] <Nutubuntu> nerdboy1024, best would be to first back up xorg.conf and then to look up the specs for your monitor - vertical refresh rate and horizontal sync rate
[04:49] <BlueKnight> k mnabil :)
[04:49] <CWO4Mann> protection against someone who really wants to crack the pass word.  there are password crackers for zip everyplace
[04:49] <ethan> I'm having trouble getting the downloaded nvidia driver (from nvidia.org) working.  I keep getting an API missmatch error when starting X (nvidia driver version doesn't match Xorg kernel version).  I've tried the 100.14 drivers and the 9639 drivers, I get the api missmatch error with each.  (The xorg kernel module compiles fine!)  What do you think ;] ?
[04:49] <skyfalcon866> is gpg done from terminal
[04:50] <carter_> skyfalcon866, start reading about pgp
[04:50] <varun0> ethan: can you pastebin the exact error?
[04:50] <nickrud> carter_, it's amazing what a little time teaches ;)
[04:50] <mneptok> ethan: don't download binary drivers, install them from the repos.
[04:50] <Flannel> skyfalcon866: it can be.  There are GUI frontends for it too
[04:50] <CWO4Mann> well gpg can be done from terminal
[04:50] <CWO4Mann> but there is also a gui
[04:50] <ethan> the nvidia kernel module compiles fine rather
[04:50] <skyfalcon866> ok
[04:50] <carter_> nickrud, I know
[04:50] <ethan> mneptok: those aren't working.
[04:50] <alexis600> doesnt it take awfully long to bruteforce a 10 char passord with mixed letters and numbers?
[04:50] <carter_> alexis600, not on a good computer
[04:50] <ethan> mneptok: they are but I'm getting hard lockups every 20 seconds or so with nvidia-glx-new at least, and nvida-glx gives the api missmatch error as well.
[04:50] <CWO4Mann> either way, setting up gpgp is gooing totake a few minutes since you have to generate your passphrase and so forth
[04:50] <EADG>  alexis600 Rainbow tables :)
[04:50] <CWO4Mann> but once that is done you can encryupt and decrypt in seconds
[04:50] <ethan> mneptok: the repo drivers normally work, but after they added nvidia-glx-new, it doesn't work well.
[04:50] <Marfi> ethan, did you enable restricted drivers?
[04:51] <ethan> Marfi: ?
[04:51] <mneptok> ethan: what release of Ubuntu?
[04:51] <juano__> there we go! beryl workin fine now
[04:51] <ethan> mneptok: feisty.
[04:51] <Marfi> ethan, which version of ubuntu?
[04:51] <Marfi> kk
[04:51] <Nutubuntu> nerdboy1024,  when you've done that, you can edit xorg.conf and insert the proper horizsync and vertrefresh
[04:51] <varun0> juano__: how did  you fix it?
[04:51] <skyfalcon866> i tryed truecrpyt but i couldnt get it to work
[04:51] <mneptok> ethan: nVidia grfx chipset/card?
[04:51] <ethan> mneptok: nvidia 6200 agp
[04:51] <Marfi> ethan, go to system > admin > restricted drivers, and you can enable nvidia drivers there. =)
[04:51] <ethan> Marfi: I don't have X...
[04:51] <CWO4Mann> truecrypt?  well, the simplest thing is to set it up to just do bulk files encryption
[04:51] <mneptok> ethan: that's Brand F-ing New(tm), yes?
[04:51] <carter_> ethan, why no X?
[04:51] <ethan> Marfi: I've been using nvidia glx drivers for new.
[04:52] <bayu_kr> help me,  when i'm compile it's always error... i already install build-essential,  what should i install more so i can compile
[04:52] <ethan> mneptok: about 3-4 years old?
[04:52] <CWO4Mann> you can also use the clipboard feature but i don't use that
[04:52] <alexis600> hmm.. i want to test this. anyone know of a good bruteforce prog?
[04:52] <mneptok> ethan: huh. thought the 6200 series was this year.
[04:52] <varun0> bayu_kr: what's the error?
[04:52] <ethan> carter_: because the glx drivers from nvidia.com give an api missmatch error.
[04:52] <ethan> mneptok: no way.
[04:52] <nerdboy1024> what do i change in xorg.conf to get 1024x768
[04:52] <BlueKnight> any other wireless wizes on here?
[04:52] <carter_> ah okay ethan
[04:52] <stuart_> u
[04:52] <ethan> mneptok: maybe the 8*** series.
[04:52] <bayu_kr> make: *** [s-modes-h]  Error 127
[04:52] <skyfalcon866> is seahorse a good program
[04:52] <Marfi> nerdboy1024, modes toward the bottom of the file
[04:53] <ethan> hmm...
[04:53] <CWO4Mann> skyfalcon, if you set up your gpng from the desktop gui you will find the instructions very easy to follow (sorry, not to sound like i am talking down, i apologize)
[04:53] <ethan> I don't understand why I would get an api missmatch error, is there an xorg module I have to compile as well?
[04:53] <bayu_kr> i can't compile gcc too
[04:53] <ethan> Because it's acting like xorg and nvidia have different versions that won't work together.
[04:53] <varun0> bayu_kr: is that after a ./configure? or make? or just gcc blah.c ?
[04:53] <rjonesx> I think i switched off Beryl somehow and went back to the default window manager - how do I get it back?
[04:53] <stuart_> eh
[04:53] <BlueKnight> lol, while were on video cards, anyone wana help setup a 3dfx voodoo3? :D
[04:53] <stuart_> how'd i see the userlist in xchat
[04:53] <stuart_> as in the people in this channel
[04:53] <Marfi> ethan, its usually bad practice to compile drivers when working with ubuntu, especially when a new kernel comes out. =)
[04:53] <ethan> I get the api missmatch error with nvidia.com drivers and nvidia-glx, not nvidia-glx-new (but that is buggy).
[04:54] <bayu_kr> after make
[04:54] <winndixie> stuart_: move the grip bar on the right
[04:54] <ethan> Marfi: that doesn't make much sense.
[04:54] <ethan> what new kernel?
[04:54] <HeaDSHoT`> rjonesx, the lil red diamond go to select window manager and choose beryl
[04:54] <varun0> bayu_kr: can you pastebin the whole output
[04:54] <stuart_> oh silly me
[04:54] <BarlowBrad> Hi everyone, I found the list of supported wireless cards on the Ubuntu Wiki, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a really good USB, Wireless G card that works out of the box with Fiesty?
[04:54] <bryantcaley> hi there guys n gals
[04:54] <CWO4Mann> Hi Barlow .. I have had great luck with two
[04:54] <stuart_> and what's the package name for nvidia again
[04:55] <stuart_> nvidia-glx ?
[04:55] <Marfi> ethan, when working with gentoo, i had the same problem with the mismatch error. i had to backgrade my kernel, then recompile the drivers for it. with ubuntu, you can just enable the restricted driver modules, which work with the kernel very nicely
[04:55] <nerdboy1024> whitch one is active
[04:55] <CWO4Mann> the Linksys and the Hawking
[04:55] <danandtiny> hello everyone, ubuntu newbie here
[04:55] <nerdboy1024> and how do i select one
[04:55] <nalioth> 71-214-223-22.desm.qwest.net
[04:55] <varun0> BarlowBrad: your best bet is to google for that.
[04:55] <bryantcaley> how can I right click in gnome, and "open window in terminal"  without it permission denying me ?

[04:55] <BarlowBrad> Thanks cwo4mann :)
[04:55] <CWO4Mann> the linksys seems more sensitive right on the cusp of distant signals
[04:55] <damo22> whats the command for screenshot capture in xfce?
[04:56] <BarlowBrad> sensitive... in a bad way?
[04:56] <CWO4Mann> one trick, Barlow, is to use all of the various wireless helper applications
[04:56] <Pelo> damo22,  shift+prnscr like everywhere else
[04:56] <CWO4Mann> that we have with ubuntu
[04:56] <damo22> cool thx
[04:56] <CWO4Mann> and then decide which one you like best
[04:56] <ethan> Marfi: I have restricted modules enabled...
[04:56] <Pelo> !enter | CWO4Mann
[04:56] <ubotu> CWO4Mann: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:56] <ethan> Marfi: I have the linux-restricted-modules package installed, X has always worked fine
[04:56] <johny5> I want to setup a home server.  Should I download the actual Ubuntu Server edition or just stick with the Desktop edition?
[04:56] <BarlowBrad> I assume that will make more sense when I try it myself?
[04:57] <CWO4Mann> i use "wireless assistant"
[04:57] <Marfi> ethan, what does your xorg.conf look like?
[04:57] <varun0> johny5: what exactly to you want to do?
[04:57] <nerdboy1024> how do i move the start menu
[04:57] <nerdboy1024> applications menu bar
[04:57] <ethan> Marfi: I kept my computer off for a week, but when I booted, nvidia-glx didn't work (missmatch error).  It turns out the packagers messed with stuff, and you need to install nvidia-glx-new to get Xorg working, but now I'm getting X freezes, (every 5 seconds with compiz).
[04:57] <nerdboy1024> it is stuck on the right of the page
[04:57] <bayu> i can't compile.. help me
[04:57] <ethan> Marfi: I've tried the default xorg.conf, and my xorg.conf, and nvidia-settigns xorg.conf.  it's not xorg.conf.
[04:58] <CWO4Mann> hey ubutu bot ... i was typing on-line responses when we had to use a teletype machine and hit "carriage return" and then "line feed" so give me some slack, there mister bot
[04:58] <Pelo> nerdboy1024, right click , unlock , righr click move
[04:58] <stuart_> how'd i get sound to run on xubuntu again
[04:58] <rjonesx> YAY: Wobbly Windows are Back!
[04:58] <johny5> varun0: I just want to setup an FTP and play around with IMAP on my home network.
[04:58] <Marfi> ethan, did you run an update before starthing compiz?
[04:58] <rjonesx> i am such a child
[04:58] <BarlowBrad> okay, I got it... thanks a lot cwo4mann :)
[04:58] <dissection> :}
[04:58] <rjonesx> thank you :)
[04:58] <varun0> bayu: go to pastebin.com, paste the output of the make command, and paste the link on the channel
[04:58] <mneptok> ethan: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[04:58] <CWO4Mann> wobby windows makes me seasick but its a cool effect
[04:58] <mneptok> (sorry, got a phone call)
[04:58] <skyfalcon866> who created ubuntu
[04:58] <varun0> johny5: I'd say (and this is IMHO) go with desktop version
[04:58] <rjonesx> I am living proof that Ubuntu can make it on a destkop
[04:58] <varun0> skyfalcon866: everyone :-)
[04:59] <mneptok> skyfalcon866: humanity
[04:59] <skyfalcon866> =)
[04:59] <Pelo> skyfalcon866, a company called canonical run by a man called  mark shuttleworth
[04:59] <ethan> Marfi: of course
[04:59] <rjonesx> skyfalcoln866: LOLcats
[04:59] <ethan> mneptok: yes... done that.
[04:59] <johny5> varun0: Than you very much.
[04:59] <bayu> ok
[04:59] <mneptok> ethan: including the dist-upgrade?
[04:59] <ethan> mneptok: everything is up to date, nvidia-glx does _NOT_ work.
[04:59] <ethan> mneptok: I do dist-upgrade daily
[04:59] <obf213> ok how do i get the default application toolbar back
[04:59] <obf213> it disseapeard
[04:59] <ethan> mneptok: only nvidia-glx-new works.
[04:59] <varun0> johny5: the reason I say that is (a) you're purpose doesn't seem to intensive (b) you'll have a nice GUI up and running :-)
[04:59] <CWO4Mann> so, is everyone happy tonight (carriage return)+(linefeed) ??
[05:00] <ethan> mneptok: nvidia-glx normally works fine, but after I let my computer be off for a week, it stopped working.
[05:00] <johny5> varun0: That's what I figured.  Plus I'm at least familiar with the Desktop Edition.
[05:00] <CWO4Mann> out of all the linux versions i've used over the years, ubuntu is positively the most effective
[05:00] <Marfi> ethan, when first setting compiz for the card, did you add any lines to the xorg.conf file?
[05:00] <varun0> johny5: it's a good place to start. if you decide to go crazy, you can always install the server edition
[05:00] <mneptok> CWO4Mann: we use LF around here, Windows-boy.  ;)
[05:01] <johny5> varun0: is the only difference the lack of a X?
[05:01] <varun0> johny5: I don't know. Google should be able to help you out. :-)
[05:01] <CWO4Mann> hah .. good one .. no, the CR+LF dates way before windoze.  back to the days of the mainframe when we had a teletype machine modified to do batch entry rather than punch cards
[05:02] <johny5> varun0: Ah, research...I remember what that is.
[05:02] <ethan> Marfi: of course.
[05:02] <ethan> Marfi: I know my way around xorg.conf, that's not the problem here.
[05:02] <BlueKnight> anyone know where "rtmp_info.c" is?
[05:02] <varun0> johny5: lol.......sorry I don't mean to be a dick. But to answer it, I'd have to google it and then tell you :-)
[05:02] <ethan> Marfi: the nvidia drivers and xorg have gotten out of sync, and I don't know what to do .
[05:03] <cparker> How do I get Ubuntu to recognize special character combinations? I'm used to being able to type Alt+235 for lower-case e with accent grave, for example.
[05:03] <obf213> how do i add the tray and all that stuff to a toolbar i dont c the option for that
[05:03] <iwantxubuntu> hello. help.  i have an older laptop that i want to try to get xubuntu onto, but the bios will not let me assign a drive (it's sposed to, but is frozen fro some reason)... anyways, my question is: can i boot the windows 98 that is running on it, then save xubuntu from the xubuntu disk my friend burned for me, and then extract the file, install it from the harddrive?  does this question make sense??? :)
[05:03] <johny5> varun0: I didn't that you had.  I was merely remarking at my laziness.
[05:03] <johny5> think...
[05:03] <bayu> i have paste in pastebin.com
[05:03] <dormedas> im here :D
[05:04] <varun0> bayu: what is the link?
[05:04] <varun0> iwantxubuntu: so you want to install ubuntu from windows?
[05:04] <CWO4Mann> i've used wondows since the first version came out.  the military has always wanted to be "cutting edge" in the communications business.  but we are gradually comeing around to Linux for critical applications
[05:04] <CWO4Mann> boym that frigging cox cable is up and down every ten minutes here at the Fort.  I am about to get out one of the troposcatter systems and log in fro, say, Panama
[05:04] <CWO4Mann> ne1 else experiencing cox cable intermittants
[05:04] <bayu> http://pastebin.com/f404382d2
[05:04] <Materials> could anyone tell me what package i need to use opengl and include and linking directories i need to use with g++?
[05:04] <iwantxubuntu> varun0:  ya, i guess, if it's possible...
[05:04] <stuart_> what package do i need to configure sound in xubuntu?
[05:05] <victory747> /msgchanservlist*ubuntu*
[05:05] <oldude67> hey wheres a good place to download pidgin from
[05:05] <bruenig> oldude67, pidgin.im?
[05:06] <iwantxubuntu> varunO: i cant get the bios to let me boot from the cdrom
[05:06] <CWO4Mann> lots of timeouts
[05:06] <bruenig> stuart_, if you have xubuntu installed,  you have that package installed
[05:06] <victory747> hi, I have a question about the apt-repositories.  Is it safe to say that after feisty release that none of the repositories will change except for updates and backports?
[05:07] <CWO4Mann> yes victory ... that's a safe bet
[05:07] <johny5> varun0: Thanks again.
[05:07] <bruenig> victory747, and security
[05:07] <willis_> at least thats how its supposed to work. I think
[05:07] <CWO4Mann> "continuity" is the word
[05:07] <iwantxubuntu> varun0: I don't have any files i'm worried about saving, because i just bought the machine with 98 on it
[05:07] <Marfi> ethan, what is the error that your getting? api mismatch?
[05:07] <stuart_> bruenig, my bad. xfce wasn't making a sound so i assumed it wasn't
[05:07] <stuart_> but xmms doesn't sound that clear too
[05:07] <victory747> ok, so once I mirror the main repos, I only need to stay current with updates, security, and backports.
[05:08] <nerdboy1024> ok, i still can not get it to change to 1024x768
[05:08] <bruenig> victory747, yes
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> stuart_, audacious is worth a try
[05:08] <CWO4Mann> that's correct .. and you can schedule it all automatic so really it is hands off
[05:08] <victory747> thanks so much! :)
[05:08] <CWO4Mann> nunca problema
[05:08] <stuart_> nomasteryoda, think it's because of xmms or is it because of the driver?
[05:08] <bruenig> !justask | BlueKnight
[05:08] <nerdboy1024> maybe the wrong driver? is there a way to get it to scan for a driver
[05:08] <ubotu> BlueKnight: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:08] <victory747> I'm already running debmirror.  My home machine has no internet, so I wanted to only carry back and forth what I need.
[05:08] <CWO4Mann> blueknight whats going on with your wireless card?
[05:09] <BlueKnight> Can't get a Airlink101 AWLH3026 working...
[05:09] <BlueKnight> seeing a lot of stuff on the forms about modifying some funky kernel file... :S
[05:09] <nomasteryoda> stuart_, play the example ogg file in your /home/stuart folder
[05:09] <CWO4Mann> have you done all the usual stuff like rebooting once the card is fully seated?
[05:09] <BlueKnight> yup
[05:09] <BlueKnight> rebooted
[05:09] <dormedas> lol, How the heck can I get X Server running correctly? it doesnt run on my computer for some reason. I have no Identifier for my video card and no driver in the X config file
[05:09] <BlueKnight> tired manual configs (not a total n00b thankfully)
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> stuart_, if PCM is too high, then sounds are distorted ... i see that all the time
[05:10] <CWO4Mann> and tried various wireless applications to see if the applications see your card?
[05:10] <BlueKnight> lspci sees it quite nicely :S
[05:10] <TaJMoX> what's a good way to burn avi/mpeg to dvd video?
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> k3b
[05:10] <CWO4Mann> iok, then lspci is ok so sys sees it
[05:10] <nickrud> nerdboy1024, put the output of lspci on paste.ubuntu-nl.org, a copy of your xorg.conf file, and the output of xrandr
[05:10] <TaJMoX> thanks
[05:10] <BlueKnight> the actually controller is apparently a RAlink rt2561/rt61
[05:10] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, yes i have
[05:10] <BarlowBrad> cwo4mann: I'm looking on the Wireless Cards supported and see that some linksys cards "work out of the box" and some require ndiswrapper. How would I know which version I am buying before I get it?
[05:10] <skyfalcon866> is there a way i can eject a flash disk without pressing eject
[05:11] <bruenig> TaJMoX, there are many cli utilities and utilities such as devede
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, what kind of system? ... the video card is ?
[05:11] <TaJMoX> bruenig: devede yeah thats what im looking for
[05:11] <CWO4Mann> try the command sudo iwconfig 'ra0' 'txpower' 'off'
[05:11] <Marfi> skyfalcon866, umount /dev/<devide>
[05:11] <willis_> skyfalcon866,  just 'unmount' it - thats what eject is actually doing.. (well and giveing a eject command)
[05:11] <bruenig> skyfalcon866, pull it out?
[05:11] <BlueKnight> BarlowBrad - depends on where your buying it from... usually there should be a model number or something that would let you know
[05:11] <Marfi> skyfalcon866, *device
[05:11] <CWO4Mann> then try it again with "on"
[05:11] <BlueKnight> cwo4mann was taht to me?
[05:11] <stuart_> okay well i'll let sound quality slide for now
[05:11] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, it's an NVIDIA MX 4000 (i know, bad :P) I'm running on an old Emachines
[05:11] <skyfalcon866> yes in windows xp i can just pull it our without pressing eject
[05:11] <stuart_> but right now i can't seem to reformat my /dev/hdb1
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> no that is fine
[05:12] <victory747> hey, is there any way to suppress who entered and left the room messages - I'm using gaim
[05:12] <stuart_> or /media/hdb
[05:12] <CWO4Mann> oh yes Blue knight, it was
[05:12] <CWO4Mann> use sudo iwconfig 'ra0' 'txpower' 'off'
[05:12] <CWO4Mann> then do the same command again with "on" instead of off
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (sudo)
[05:12] <CWO4Mann> that will cycle the transmitter on and off
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> make sure "nv" is in the section for the device
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> or at the worst, vesa
[05:12] <drthunder> i need a progam to optimize my images so they load faster, any ideas?
[05:12] <BarlowBrad> thanks blueknight
[05:12] <CVD> its there a firefox that ask me " Firefox is trying to connect to the internet, allow it" Yes/No
[05:12] <CWO4Mann> brb, i got a landline call
[05:13] <BlueKnight> "Error for wireless request "Set Tx Power" (8B26) : SET failed on device ra0; Operation not supported."
[05:13] <greywhind> nomasteryoda: he can't find the section for the device.
[05:13] <BlueKnight> :S
[05:13] <CVD> ups a firewall
[05:13] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, thats the problem, my conf file doesnt have a device for it :(
[05:13] <nomasteryoda> ah ok hang on
[05:13] <willis_> CVD,  not that ive ever seen
[05:13] <greywhind> dormedas: did you mention you're running on a live cd?
[05:13] <dormedas> no
[05:13] <CVD> Sygate Firewall :-(
[05:13] <greywhind> dormedas: that's an important detail
[05:13] <dormedas> grey: quite
[05:14] <carter_> BlueKnight, when you asked if anyone was a wireless expert, my wireless decided to crash to prove a point to me
[05:14] <BlueKnight> fyi peeps - this is an older system, but brand new install of ubuntu
[05:14] <BarlowBrad> thank you everyone, I'm out :)
[05:14] <nomasteryoda> wait, the nvidia-glx drivers won't install?
[05:14] <CVD> i installed firestarter but never ask me if i want to allow something or not
[05:14] <BlueKnight> rofl carter_
[05:14] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, havent tried that
[05:14] <carter_> BlueKnight, that's the last time I'm responding affirmatively to that question
[05:15] <nerdboy1024> how do i get x11 to auto congifure
[05:15] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, its quite imperative you know im running on a live CD
[05:15] <nerdboy1024> drivers for video
[05:15] <nomasteryoda> ok
[05:15] <CVD> any?
[05:15] <EADG> I was looking at traffic to and from my computer yesterday with iftop and saw data coming into a port named "fido" Anybody know what thats about?
[05:15] <nomasteryoda> well, you can still edit the xorg.conf file
[05:15] <gengrea> any one slashdot?
[05:15] <nickrud> nerdboy1024, the usual method is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:15] <nomasteryoda> looking a bit more dormedas
[05:15] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, i have for like the past 40 minutes
[05:16] <nomasteryoda> no we'll get it
[05:16] <nerdboy1024> i've been doing that
[05:16] <nerdboy1024> but no dice
[05:16] <carter_> Eadg, that's a new one to me
[05:16] <gengrea> im trying to find out if you can send pm on slashdot anyone know?
[05:16] <nickrud> nerdboy1024, then let me see your xorg.conf, the lspci, and the xrandr ;)
[05:16] <carter_> Eadg, have you port scanned yourself with nmap yet?
[05:16] <gengrea> sorry for being off topic
[05:16] <EADG> carter_: Me too.. netstat even showed it as 192.168.0.104:fido
[05:16] <nomasteryoda> dormedas,  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42764
[05:16] <defjux> can i access my win2k3 partition from ubuntu?? its ntfs
[05:17] <carter_> lol Eadg, that's teh awesome
[05:17] <nerdboy1024> nickrud, after i use this utility, do i need to restart
[05:17] <carter_> defjux, yes
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> the section you need is right there...
[05:17] <EADG> carter_: couple weeks ago I ran nmap on that box.
[05:17] <BlueKnight> so anyone with suggestions on the AWLH3026 and it not liking the iwconfig ra0 txpower off commands?
[05:17] <carter_> Eadg, what came back?
[05:17] <LeChacal> Server
[05:17] <nickrud> nerdboy1024, you log out of your desktop, hit control-alt-backspace to restart your X server, and then log back in
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> Identifier	"NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 4000 64 MB PCI"
[05:17] <defjux> sweet carter can you recommend a technique?
[05:17] <BlueKnight> it apparently is the only airlink101 card that isn't actively supported yet from that brand :S
[05:17] <EADG> carter_: nothing unusual, same as it always is.
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, if you want to search in that box for it
[05:17] <carter_> defjux, it should automount, are you running ubuntu right now?
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> posted that for you
[05:17] <nerdboy1024> ok, brb
[05:17] <BlueKnight> eadg - someone let the dogs out?
[05:18] <BlueKnight> ;)
[05:18] <carter_> EADG, I'm going to go research this.  This is something we didn't cover in two years of Cisco networking :-)
[05:18] <LadyNikon> who let the dogs out..
[05:18] <greywhind> nomasteryoda: (btw, i've been trying to help dormedas on a different channel) does he need to know the BusID?
[05:18] <tamale> yaaargh i can't get my fonts to look like they did on my previous edgy install
[05:18] <EADG> BlueKnight: hehe. I dunno, thought it was pretty wierd, but got caught up with something else, never followed up on it 'till I just remembered.
[05:18] <tamale> i'm on feisty now and everything looks slightly different
[05:18] <tamale> much blurrier
[05:18] <Bleed> Does anyone know where copied text gets stored?
[05:18] <tamale> it's not clear type..
[05:19] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, it helps  but the system should just accept "nv" in that spot
[05:19] <Bleed> I'm googling everything, and I keep hearing about x clipboard
[05:19] <willis_> Bleed,  you mean the text in the clipboard?
[05:19] <EADG> carter_: i'll run a quick nmap -A -T4 on the vbox now.
[05:19] <Bleed> but I wanna know where I can edit it manually
[05:19] <Bleed> I have a script that I want to set my clipboard with
[05:19] <greywhind> nomasteryoda: as in Driver "nv" and no BusID line?
[05:19] <willis_> Bleed,  its in memory. thats it.. there are some tools that let ya do things with the clipboard
[05:19] <carter_> EADG, thank you
[05:19] <skyfalcon866> can pgp be cracked
[05:19] <Bleed> I want to run the script, and have it set text
[05:19] <Bleed> in the clipboard
[05:19] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, hang on
[05:19] <Bleed> it's frustrating, I can't figure this simple task out
[05:19] <dormedas> greywhind, lol this is looking good :P
[05:20] <cafuego> skyfalcon866: Given enough time and computer power, yes.
[05:20] <jaypro> im connected to the internet thru ath0, but when i start firestarter it shows that the device ath0 as type local and device eth0 as type internet
[05:20] <stuart_> how do i run xfce in root, or sudo
[05:20] <jaypro> something is wrong
[05:20] <Bleed> I just wanna run a command like:   clipboard --set "text here!"
[05:20] <stuart_> e.g: i wanna right click a folder and change it's permissions, but i need root
[05:20] <Bleed> and have it set.
[05:20] <skyfalcon866> like how much time
[05:20] <phil_pi> the guy who wrote pgp had a quiet meeting with the nsa before they allowed him to release it
[05:20] <Bleed> You know of anything like that?
[05:20] <CVD> its there a firewall for linux that ask questions?
[05:20] <cafuego> skyfalcon866: That depends on th key size and algorithm.
[05:20] <Tixer> Oh God....
[05:20] <skyfalcon866> ok
[05:20] <skyfalcon866> thanks
[05:20] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, he should put the busid there
[05:20] <winndixie> i just took a dump but i didn't wipe
[05:20] <Tixer> I've got like 50 x sessions open, and nothings working
[05:20] <winndixie> since i might need to go again later
[05:21] <cafuego> skyfalcon866: The question is: does anyone who cares about your data have access to his computing power and time?
[05:21] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, that one in the example?
[05:21] <Nutubuntu> phil_pi,  you sure of them statistics ?
[05:21] <Tixer> how do I kill tons of x sessions, and cause :0 to restart
[05:21] <cafuego> skyfish: ... and if they do have access to the power, os the data still valuable to them by the time they have cracked it?
[05:21] <ubuntuzo> hi all :)
[05:21] <winndixie> pkill X
[05:21] <phil_pi> it must be true, i read it on the interweb
[05:21] <bulmer> Tixer, ctrl + alt+backspace
[05:21] <carter_> skyfalcon866, when you're talking about pgp, you're talking about university level power, at least
[05:21] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, dormedas  ... lspci -v  should give him more than what he wants , but it shows it as a BusID
[05:21] <Tixer> bulmer: I'm on SSH
[05:22] <Tixer> VNC has broken horribly for me
[05:22] <carter_> skyfalcon866, don't use it to hide your kiddie porn though, the police will crack it
[05:22] <bulmer> Tixer so?
[05:22] <greywhind> dormedas: you get that?
[05:22] <carter_> :-)
[05:22] <dormedas> greywhind, yep!
[05:22] <Nutubuntu> ohzie, well then ;p
[05:22] <Tixer> bulmer: it's kinda hard to do Ctrl-Alt-Backspace with SSH
[05:22] <stuart_> can i use nautilus in xfce?
[05:22] <bulmer> Tixer, you are remoted in?
[05:22] <BlueKnight> man this server has a wierd register scheme :P
[05:22] <Tixer> yes
[05:22] <Nutubuntu> that is, "o h well then" -- sorry 'bout that ohzie
[05:22] <Tixer> gah, no success!
[05:23] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, just scroll the list to find the line wiht the id
[05:23] <willis_> stuart_,  or install 'mc' and use it in a root shell...
[05:23] <greywhind> dormedas, nomasteryoda: does he need any modifiers in the "Screen" section?
[05:23] <CVD> Zzzz
[05:23] <bulmer> Tixer, then try sudo /etc/gdm restart
[05:23] <carter_> Eadg, I'm not finding anything on a fido port, and I don't even know what to tell you to do to secure it
[05:23] <willis_> stuart_,  you can run most anything ya want. the different desktops dont care much,
[05:23] <EADG> carter_: nmap shows the same results as it alwasy does.
[05:23] <Tixer> I had it so that I could use Ubuntu over VNC this morning, using X session :0, and then I did something, and now it doesn't work
[05:23] <Tixer> now, I have like 30 VNC servers running
[05:23] <carter_> EADG, shit, this is hiliariously odd
[05:23] <jaypro> my pc is connected to the internet thru ath0, but when i start firestarter it shows that the device ath0 as type local and device eth0 as type internet (as shown in firestarter).  it should be the other way around.  how do i fix it?
[05:24] <Tixer> and my GUI account isn't logged on or anything, so theres nothing on :0
[05:24] <Tixer> and everythings on fire
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, the resolution of his monitor would help... but 1024x768 should work
[05:24] <stuart_> willis_, cool.
[05:24] <bulmer> Tixer go find the daemon you used to start vnc
[05:24] <stuart_> anyway, if i were to use USB, which folder should i look in, or mount?
[05:24] <Tixer> that's the thing
[05:24] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, it should
[05:24] <bulmer> and kill it
[05:24] <EADG> carter_: Ya, it is, cause as far as I know ports are suppose to be numbers... right?
[05:24] <greywhind> nomasteryoda: he doesn't need to add a "Device" line?
[05:24] <Tixer> I've got like 4 daemons for VNC
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> dormedas, and the device
[05:24] <willis_> Tixer,  vncserver --kill :1  (thrugh whatever) :)
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> yea
[05:24] <Tixer> realvnc, tightvncserver
[05:24] <carter_> EADG, right
[05:24] <carter_> I have never read anything about a "named" port
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, same as used in the device section
[05:24] <carter_> I mean obviously like 80 is called http sometimes
[05:25] <Tixer> @Omgwtfhax:~$ vncserver --kill :1
[05:25] <Tixer> New 'X' desktop is Omgwtfhax:4
[05:25] <greywhind> dormedas: you see the "Device" line in the "Screen" section? you need to add that too
[05:25] <Tixer> GAH
[05:25] <Tixer> that only started another one!
[05:25] <nomasteryoda> greywhind, dormedas if nv does not work ,then "vesa" should
[05:25] <dormedas> greywhind, si senor
[05:25] <willis_> it may be -kill  :1 or whatever
[05:25] <willis_> time to learn to kill by pid. :)
[05:25] <carter_> EADG, and you saw traffic on this port?
[05:26] <EADG> carter_: I'm searching too, so far nothing relating to ports.
[05:26] <carter_> Hell E
[05:26] <Tixer> So I finally killed all of those....
[05:26] <carter_> Hell EADG, I can look at the list of all avaliable ports.  it's not on there
[05:26] <Tixer> how do I start remote desktop, so I can see what's on :0
[05:26] <greywhind> nomasteryoda, dormedas: is that all he needs to know? should he try it now?
[05:26] <dormedas> nomasteryoda: so I'm all set to go try?
[05:26] <EADG> carter_: Yes... trying to recall the addy....
[05:26] <carter_> Blueknight, sorry about the pm, server is being a bitch, h/o
[05:26] <nomasteryoda> that should work guys ... dormedas greywhind
[05:27] <BlueKnight> carter_ nod, k :)
[05:27] <greywhind> dormedas: don't forget the killall gdm
[05:27] <greywhind> and sudo gdm
[05:27] <dormedas> greywhind, got it, dont worry
[05:27] <CVD> sometimes when i want to view a .flv video firefox shutdown, any know why?
[05:27] <greywhind> dormedas: alright - good luck
[05:27] <nomasteryoda> we xx fingers
[05:27] <dormedas> greywhind, nomasteryoda: So guys, this should work, ill see you soon hopefully in Feisty
[05:27] <EADG> hehe
[05:27] <greywhind> dormedas: yep - cya
[05:28] <Simply_Puzzled> okay EADG, can you sniff the packets?
[05:28] <bryantcaley> hi
[05:28] <bryantcaley> is there a good place in irc to ask about cedega ?
[05:28] <Simply_Puzzled> I want to know what the hell is in a packet sent over fido
[05:30] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: with what program? fido is no longer open.
[05:30] <CVD> i need to have a stupid nickname to get answers?
[05:31] <Nutubuntu> patience and good manners usually work best
[05:31] <nomasteryoda> cv, no
[05:31] <nomasteryoda> CVD, nope
[05:31] <Simply_Puzzled> EADG, hmm I'm starting to think even a packet sniffer wouldn't work
[05:32] <Simply_Puzzled> EADG, cause it relies on scanning incoming ports, which are numbered
[05:32] <Simply_Puzzled> sigh
[05:32] <CVD> a command to see waht things are using the internet?
[05:32] <limeetr> is the desktop edition the same as the server but with a GUI?
[05:32] <Nutubuntu> CVD,  are you thinking of iftop?
[05:33] <GamingX> Where do you get mp3 and various audio codecs for Ubuntu?
[05:33] <Urbandale> question 4 everyone... every so often (havent checked interval length) my system reboots to login screen. why?
[05:33] <BlueKnight> gamingX -> VLC :D
[05:33] <Simply_Puzzled> EADG, man, this is gonna have me wondering for awhile...
[05:33] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: 60179          | fido                       | FidoNet electronic mail and news network
[05:33] <GamingX> I installed mplayer but not playing audio
[05:33] <Urbandale> gamingx: automaticx
[05:33] <Simply_Puzzled> ah, there we go
[05:34] <willis_> dont use automatix. theres no need for it.
[05:34] <kiba> uh
[05:34] <willis_> !w32codecs
[05:34] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:34] <Ralth> Hello! I'm trying to install 6.10 desktop on an older machine I have.  I keep getting this error: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off".  Any ideas?
[05:34] <kiba> How to switch from gnome to kde?
[05:34] <rustalot> no automatix
[05:34] <BSDaemon> FidoNet? Wasn't that an old telephone based BBS mail system?
[05:34] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: Found it on this page: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/security-guide/ch-ports.html
[05:34] <willis_> kiba,  install kubuntu-desktop, and the login manager will have a kde entry in its menus
[05:34] <BlueKnight> bad cd ralth?
[05:34] <rustalot> it will make your eyeball fall out
[05:34] <Nutubuntu> Urbandale, no easy answer - you might check your log files ... or make sure that xorg.conf isn't configuring devices that you don't have installed ... but ...
[05:34] <willis_> rustalot,  and  give your dog rabies
[05:34] <Urbandale> wait, devices?
[05:34] <Simply_Puzzled> okay EADG, here is your problem, it's not using TCP/IP
[05:34] <BSDaemon> kiba: sudo apt-get install kde
[05:34] <Urbandale> i tried to mount one
[05:34] <nickrud> and make you cry on 7.10
[05:34] <Simply_Puzzled> It's a UUCP protocol
[05:35] <Urbandale> didnt get it through
[05:35] <BSDaemon> kiba: that should install it and add the entry into your Sessions menu at login
[05:35] <Urbandale> deleted the mount point
[05:35] <Ralth> BlueKnight: possibly.  Is that the most likely option?
[05:35] <Urbandale> would that be a problem?
[05:35] <klobster> why do i need cron, anacron and atd running all at once?
[05:35] <kiba> BSDaemon: I already have kde
[05:36] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: K, any idea what it was that wasn't using tcp/ip?
[05:36] <BlueKnight> not an expert by any means, but thats what i'd suspect. If its not too much of a trouble, I'd try reburning the disc...
[05:36] <Nutubuntu> Urbandale, I doubt it. I meant - for example - if xorg.conf thinks you have a wacom tablet installed but you don't
[05:36] <BlueKnight> er that was to ralth
[05:36] <nickrud> klobster, cron runs anacron, which runs your regularly scheduled maintenance. atd is one shot things you set up
[05:36] <BSDaemon> kiba: I don't think there's any really feasible way to do it without logging out
[05:36] <Simply_Puzzled> EADG, google fidonet
[05:36] <Urbandale> hmm
[05:37] <Ralth> BlueKnight: thanks, I'll try that.
[05:37] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: looking
[05:37] <phil_pi> early email systems used uucp
[05:37] <BSDaemon> Man , I used a FidoNet bbs back in the 90s
[05:37] <Urbandale> Nutubuntu: how do i check?
[05:37] <ian_> hi everyone, I've got some disk corruption issues and was wondering if someone here could help?
[05:37] <BlueKnight> np ralth :) btw there should be an option to check the cd for errors before you install... might wana try running that as well?
[05:37] <ian_> I've got two 120gb disks in a raid0 array and want to recover MOST data
[05:38] <ian_> its all movies and music and stuff, all documents/code/personal stuff was backed up
[05:38] <ian_> one of the disks started to throw errors at me
[05:38] <Nutubuntu> Urbandale,  pull up a terminal and type "less < /etc/X11/xorg.conf" (minus the "" marks) ... look for sections that are not commented out that refer to stuff you don't have installed.
[05:38] <BlueKnight> one sec ian_
[05:38] <Urbandale> alright, one moment
[05:38] <tamale> ack.. can someone please help explain why fonts look so much worse to me in feisty than they did in edgy?
[05:38] <tamale> or better yet, what i can do to make them sharper
[05:38] <ian_> how should I go about trying to copy everything off those disks?  I'm not sure how to reconfigure them and mount them using a live disk
[05:39] <phil_pi> tamale:  poor quality tequila?
[05:39] <BlueKnight> hardware or software raid?
[05:39] <phil_pi> that always makes me blurry
[05:39] <BlueKnight> ian
[05:39] <tamale> hehe
[05:39] <ian_> software raid0 on ubuntu 7.04
[05:39] <BlueKnight> *gag* ok... nmmmm
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> ian_,  that is a weak point for a RAID0 ... if any of the disks involved die, the entire array is down. Did you by any chance back up regularly?
[05:39] <ian_> set it up with the alternate install
[05:39] <BlueKnight> might have a clue on a hardware raid :S
[05:39] <LeChacal>  clothing
[05:39] <ian_> nutubuntu: no, thats why I'm here
[05:39] <CVD> its there a way to see all my comments quickly with out scrolling all this?
[05:40] <phil_pi> there are some sttings for font hinting in preferences
[05:40] <BlueKnight> ian rofl - sorry bout that
[05:40] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: Fidonet: series of gateway systems which interact with the Internet via UUCP with cooperating UNIX-based smart-hosts which act as their MX-receivers.
[05:40] <ian_> so, I think its just some bad blocks or something, the system still boots, but is unstable
[05:40] <tamale> seriously though, i'm getting a headache trying to read this :(
[05:40] <phil_pi> check font preferences & play with the rendering options
[05:40] <BlueKnight> ian nod, hang on... looking for a nice boot disk full of nice utilities
[05:40] <ian_> I just want to recover MOST of the data, its all movies/music/large torrent stuff
[05:40] <BSDaemon> ian_: so what you're saying is you want to be able to mount your raid0 while booting off the livecd?
[05:40] <tamale> phil_pi: it's gotta be something more substantial than that
[05:40] <EADG> Simply_Puzzled: I guess that explains it :)
[05:40] <BlueKnight> ian - a few of them include some recovery apps for hds - would give you enough life to recover your data
[05:41] <ian_> bsdaemon: that seemed like a good idea to me, but I don't know much about raid
[05:41] <dissection> Should /.config/menus be read/write both? I have read-only by default. I was told in the other channel that it should be rw and I shouldn't use "sudo alacarte" to edit menus and should use "alacarte" instead. I'm confused now. So I was misguided by someone in this channel and even after I said I was using sudo, nobody pointed it out to me?
[05:41] <EADG> Somebody was using fidonet to bittorrent.
[05:41] <kitsuneofdoom> I've got a problem with flash, it's saying: md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[05:41] <kitsuneofdoom> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[05:41] <phil_pi> when i played with font rendering, the wrong setting made them blurry
[05:41] <CVD> this is from iftop, what are they?  cs9.msg.dcn.yahoo.com , jobe.wgops.com   ,by2msg2204720.phx.gbl
[05:42] <BlueKnight> kitsuneofdoom wrong install
[05:42] <kitsuneofdoom> BlueKnight: eh?
[05:42] <BlueKnight> try searching for flash install on the forums for the proper repository
[05:42] <BlueKnight> kitsune - forget which i used, a friend help me grab it late one night
[05:42] <Nutubuntu> ian_,  not sure I can help, but what is the exact situation ? Can you not mount the RAID at all ? what error msgs, etc.?
[05:42] <BlueKnight> kitsune - told me the default was buggy or something :S
[05:43] <ian_> let me see, powering it up now
[05:43] <kitsuneofdoom> BlueKnight: I kinda prefer to use the default because it's easier to uninstall and upgrade and that's why it's there
[05:43] <ian_> luckily that system has other disks I can easily copy stuff to once I'm running
[05:43] <klobster> how does ubuntu (debian) handle runlevels?
[05:43] <ian_> klobster: init, check /etc/inittab
[05:43] <BlueKnight> kitsune - all you do is update a more recent repository, and then still use the apt-get install flash commands :D
[05:43] <willis_> klobster,  SysV init system.. but ubuntu also has the 'upstart' system its working on.
[05:43] <willis_> !upstart
[05:43] <ubotu> Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[05:44] <kitsuneofdoom> BlueKnight: a more recent repository?
[05:44] <BlueKnight> nod - repository = directory of ubuntu programs that it searches for installs...
[05:44] <kitsuneofdoom> BlueKnight: I know. But what repository
[05:44] <bulmer> klobster pre feisty like in dapper uses /etc/inittab
[05:45] <BlueKnight> thats where i'm scratching my head kitsune :(
[05:45] <BlueKnight> asking the friend that helped me out with that if he remembers
[05:45] <levander> Is each of the versions of Ubuntu, e.g. Dapper, Edgy, Feisty, are they called distributions, or are they just called releases?
[05:45] <TiMiDo> !seen seveas
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen seveas - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <Simply_Puzzled> releases levander
[05:45] <Simply_Puzzled> Redhat and Ubuntu are seperate distros
[05:46] <Simply_Puzzled> Dapper and Edgy are different releases
[05:46] <levander> Simply_Puzzled: That's what I thought, I've seen it used the other way recently though.
[05:46] <dissection> Do you guys use "sudo alacarte" or "alacarte" to edit menus?
[05:46] <willis_> alacarte  would edit the users menus, leaving the others users alone. I would belive
[05:46] <levander> Simply_Puzzled: There should be an online dictionary that acts as an authority on some of this techno-jargon.  You could have a Java one, a Linux one, etc..
[05:46] <willis_> Not sure what sudo alacarte would do.. edit roots i am guessing..
[05:46] <kitsuneofdoom> BlueKnight: found it
[05:47] <Simply_Puzzled> Levander, the info is there, just find it
[05:47] <levander> Simply_Puzzled: it'd be easier in a formal dictionary, i guess i'm more just thinking about writing one than anything else (the software for it, not the dictionary contents)
[05:47] <BlueKnight> so, to throw out some random chat, any vista lovers in the house? :D
[05:47] <willis_> BlueKnight,  they are all in #insane
[05:48] <CVD> vista slow
[05:48] <willis_> vista worse then slow.. :)
[05:48] <BlueKnight> hehe
[05:48] <cupps> Is there a channel to ask for help with World of Warcraft and Wine? Or can I ask in here?
[05:48] <nickrud> vista ok, just not good enough
[05:48] <levander> It actually would be nice to have a #vista channel on Freenode, if you could find a way to keep out all the masses of clueless end users.
[05:48] <MilitantPotato> Hey my CD-ROM wont eject either manualy or through linux
[05:48] <willis_> cupps,  #wine, or the various wine forums would be the best i belive
[05:48] <nomasteryoda> levander, make it
[05:48] <axcel461> cupps, what processor do you have?
[05:48] <nomasteryoda> lol
[05:49] <willis_> MilitantPotato,  try eject from the command line.
[05:49] <CVD> any way to see all my comments?
[05:49] <nickrud> levander, vista god :)
[05:49] <Simply_Puzzled> how about a #vista non-losers channel?
[05:49] <MilitantPotato> willis_: whats the command?
[05:49] <dissection> Anyone? Surely someone here edits their menus
[05:49] <regeya> MilitantPotato: or go digging for a paperclip.
[05:49] <Simply_Puzzled> Of course, no one would think "I'm a loser I should stay out"
[05:49] <CVD> yep
[05:49] <regeya> MilitantPotato: I'm assuming of course that there's a small hole on the front panel of your drive.
[05:49] <levander> nickrud: ?
[05:49] <CVD> right click in the applications
[05:49] <EADG> MilitantPotato: eject
[05:49] <CVD> thats me
[05:49] <nickrud> levander, I missed the # in #vista
[05:49] <MilitantPotato> I can reboot to fix it, but I'd rather not have to use a clip every time it does this :D
[05:50] <willis_> MilitantPotato,  'eject' :)
[05:50] <cupps> axcel461 Intel P4, why?
[05:50] <MilitantPotato> eject does nothing
[05:50] <CVD> amd or intel?
[05:50] <willis_> MilitantPotato,  not even an error message?
[05:50] <axcel461> You might be able to use vmware Server
[05:50] <MilitantPotato> nope
[05:50] <nickrud> dissection, it would edit your local menu, but write as root, maybe causing issues (I hate having root owned files in home)
[05:50] <CVD> PR here?
[05:50] <MilitantPotato> just starts a new command prompt
[05:50] <axcel461> I can boot my windows partition from it and play starcraft
[05:50] <Some_Person> What's gonna be new in Gusty Gibbon?
[05:50] <willis_> Some_Person,  about everything. :)
[05:50] <levander> MilitantPotato: You gave eject an argument as the device file to eject?  E.g., "eject <device name>"
[05:51] <CVD> compiz fusioz?
[05:51] <Some_Person> willis_: like...?
[05:51] <axcel461> Gutsy Gibbon will have compiz-fusion
[05:51] <dissection> nickrud: So I should use sudo or not?
[05:51] <willis_> !gutsy
[05:51] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[05:51] <nickrud> dissection, no
[05:51] <Some_Person> compiz, i know of, but what is compiz-fusion?
[05:51] <CVD> wao, idont even have a 3d card, so new for me
[05:51] <nickrud> dissection, personally I just right click the menu bar, don't even call from the terminal
[05:51] <CVD> nothing new for me
[05:52] <dissection> nickrud: I did that but it doesn't run
[05:52] <axcel461> compiz-fusion is beryl and compiz back together again
[05:52] <regeya> hey, I've had that happen too, MilitantPotato.  If you find a solution make sure to post it to the forums.  on mine sometimes a burn will go bad, then the drive door will be locked.  no amount of eject, trying to eject via hdparm, nothing seems to work other than forcing the drive open with a paperclip or reboot.  however, on mine, the 'eject' command hangs for about 5 minutes before bravely surrendering, and no amount of tryin
[05:52] <cupps> How do I get the proper drivers for an old, old ATI card in Ubuntu? I've been trying all day with no success.
[05:52] <axcel461> Right now.... SLOW
[05:52] <nickrud> dissection, ok
[05:52] <Some_Person> that may or may not be good for me, i get the same bug in beryl and compiz with the titlebars
[05:52] <c_lisp> anybody know how to add ubuntu right click permanent delete for files?
[05:52] <regeya> http://www.everex.com/gc3502/index.htm <- sure, it's 'green' but it runs windows...oh well.  and I never thought of being 'green' when I bought via; I thought 'cheap cheap cheap'
[05:53] <BlueKnight> i feel you cupps - should be out there... they even have drivers for my 3dfx voodoo3 out there... have yet to get them yet though
[05:53] <MilitantPotato> reg, I didn't add a param to eject, so i'm not sure if it will hang or not
[05:53] <Some_Person> i hope gusty gets rid of the bug
[05:53] <axcel461> KDE offers transparent window borders without the slowdown
[05:53] <dissection> nickrud: I checked .config/menus and its owned by reoot and settings.menu and applications.menu are read only. When I typed alacarte (without sudo) in terminal, I get an error. Does everyone else have menus directory as read only and owned by root?
[05:53] <dissection> *root
[05:53] <cupps> Everytime I start WoW I get "Unable to start 3d acceleration", but I can't seem to update my video drivers... argh.
[05:53] <MilitantPotato> How do you get a device name for the eject command?
[05:53] <nickrud> c_lisp, run gconf-editor, and navigate to apps/nautilus/preferences/enable_delete
[05:54] <willis_> MilitantPotato,  try /dev/cdrom
[05:54] <CVD> 100 time, way to see all my comments?
[05:55] <willis_> CVD,   i dont think anyone knows what you mean by that.
[05:55] <CVD> i want to see all my comments witout to scroll
[05:55] <Some_Person> wait, is it gutsy or gusty? i was under the impression that it was gusty
[05:55] <axcel461> Gutsy
[05:55] <thoreauputic> gutsy
[05:55] <willis_> CVD,   comments? where are you talking about?
[05:55] <regeya> CVD I'm not sure anyone knows what you're on about
[05:56] <MilitantPotato> /dev/cdrom did nothing
[05:56] <winndixie> hey guys
[05:56] <nickrud> dissection, no. they should not be. all mine are owned by me and 644 for permissions
[05:56] <CVD> this is a comment
[05:56] <winndixie> where can i download pornographic images from the internet
[05:56] <CVD> and another cooment
[05:56] <c_lisp> thanks
[05:56] <MilitantPotato> winndixie: www.google.com
[05:56] <thoreauputic> CVD: in irssi ? in xchat?
[05:56] <winndixie> ok
[05:56] <willis_> CVD,  thats not our definition of comment. :)
[05:56] <winndixie> thx
[05:56] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, no luck
[05:56] <willis_> #this is a comment, it begins with a # in some sort of source/config file :)
[05:57] <CVD> o ok xchar
[05:57] <nickrud> lol
[05:57] <regeya> o rly
[05:57] <thoreauputic> CVD: you could try /lastlog <nickname-here>
[05:57] <dormedas> nomasteryoda: oddly enough, when i lspci -v 'd ... the NVIDIA card showed up, and i got the BusID, but it was listed as an AGP 8x, which mine is a PCI
[05:57] <CVD> ok let me try
[05:58] <willis_> 'do, or do not, there is no try' :)
[05:58] <dormedas> nomasteryoda: confused me to heck :P
[05:58] <CVD> Yeah !!!!! thanks
[05:58] <bluebanana> hi. i need to use the Internet Explorer browser for a website. (I've tried switching user agents in Firefox via add-on, but it doesn't work).. Is there a IE for Ubuntu?
[05:58] <CVD> thoreau
[05:58] <thoreauputic> CVD:  :-)
[05:58] <regeya> CVD we're all going to need a LOT more information before we can help you there...oh right xchat...heh, that's crazy.
[05:58] <Some_Person> bluebanana: yes, through wine
[05:58] <winndixie> bluebanana: you can use qemu or vmware
[05:58] <bluebanana> no deb, Some_Person ?
[05:58] <regeya> rofflecopters:  /LASTLOG would print 3321 lines. If you really want to print all these lines use -force option.
[05:59] <bluebanana> nothing in repo, winndixie ?
[05:59] <Some_Person> bluebanana: there is no Internet Explorer for Linux, however you can run IE in WINE
[05:59] <bluebanana> Some_Person, how do i do that?
[05:59] <winndixie> wine's support for IE is limited
[05:59] <thoreauputic> regeya:  /lastlog <nick> just prints the last lot of stuff from that nick
[05:59] <BlueKnight> what is the "$" for before a command
[05:59] <Some_Person> bluebanana: the easiest way to install it is to install WINE from the repositories
[05:59] <willis_> bluebanana,  normally thats the bash prompt.
[06:00] <bluebanana> Some_Person, after i install WINE, what next?
[06:00] <Some_Person> bluebanana: and then install wine-doors (not sure if its in the repositories)
[06:00] <winndixie> Some_Person: what version of IE did you use wine with?
[06:00] <regeya> whoa.
[06:00] <Some_Person> winndixie: ie6
[06:00] <winndixie> and it worked perfectly?
[06:00] <axcel461> NOT under vmware server. You can boot your windows partition from vmware
[06:00] <bluebanana> Some_Person, winndixie : what do you think of http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_internet_explorer
[06:00] <levander> Does IE7 run in WINE?
[06:00] <Some_Person> bluebanana: and then open wine-doors, and it'll let you install it
[06:00] <Some_Person> levander: no
[06:00] <levander> Damn.
[06:00] <r00723r0> what is the oss mixer?
[06:01] <willis_> ie7 - makes me REALLy shudder...
[06:01] <levander> r00723r0: It's a sound system, like alsa.
[06:01] <xoRock> Some_Person, what is winedoor?
[06:01] <r00723r0> no
[06:01] <r00723r0> i mean
[06:01] <axcel461> OSS mixer is the volume control for the oss sound driver
[06:01] <r00723r0> like alsamixer
[06:01] <levander> r00723r0: check wikipedia maybe for more
[06:01] <r00723r0> how do i use the mixer
[06:01] <levander> r00723r0: Just open the ui, it's obvious.
[06:01] <r00723r0> what ui?
[06:01] <r00723r0> the volume control?
[06:01] <Some_Person> xorock: wine-doors is a gui for wine that lets you easily install a few windows programs from a repository
[06:02] <r00723r0> it doesn't show gain
[06:02] <r00723r0> i need to see gain
[06:02] <winndixie> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=469
[06:02] <winndixie> look at the list of known bugs for ie6/Wine
[06:02] <winndixie> that's bullshit
[06:02] <Amaranth> For the record: running 'sudo alacarte' does nothing but break your menus
[06:02] <cupps> How can I restore Ubuntu's default ATI driver and settings?
[06:02] <xoRock> Some_Person,  didn't know that, thx
[06:02] <winndixie> just use vmware or a system emulator
[06:02] <Amaranth> !ohmy | winndixie
[06:02] <ubotu> winndixie: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:02] <crimsun> add it.  secondary-click, Open Volume Control, Edit, Preferences
[06:02] <winndixie> sorry
[06:02] <thoreauputic> r00723r0: try using alsamixer in a terminal
[06:02] <CVD> hey i run the iftop and i have this,  by2msg2233105.phx.gbl , jobe.wgops.com  ,cs9.msg.dcn.yahoo.com  what are they?
[06:03] <r00723r0> oh wow
[06:03] <nw> hola
[06:03] <r00723r0> the OSS mixer
[06:03] <r00723r0> not the alsa mixer
[06:03] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me out with an audio passthrough issue?
[06:03] <thoreauputic> CVD: people you re connected to
[06:03] <Some_Person> winndixie: IE6 is a lot easier to get running with wine-doors
[06:03] <Nutubuntu> !enter
[06:03] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:03] <xen> hmmm
[06:03] <phil_pi> cupps: there's a command to restore xorg.conf to its defaults
[06:03] <dormedas> hello nomasteryoda?
[06:03] <thoreauputic> CVD: URLs you are connecte to
[06:03] <xen> ubuntu is pretty nice, I must say
[06:03] <jd_> anyone know of ao good peer to peer file sharing program
[06:03] <r00723r0> gtk-gnutella
[06:04] <cupps> phil_pi Will that restore it to the default video drivers for my ati card?
[06:04] <levander> jd_: amule
[06:04] <MilitantPotato> argh this CD-ROM thing is driving me mad.
[06:04] <r00723r0> thoreauputic: ^^
[06:04] <winndixie> Some_Person: if you say so.. but its relatively easy to set up a compelte windows system under a system emulator
[06:04] <xen> I do have a question regarding torrents on ubuntu though
[06:04] <jd_> ty levander
[06:04] <r00723r0> thoreauputic: the OSS mixer, not the ALSA mixer
[06:04] <Some_Person> winndixie: yes, but you end up having to use a lot more disk space and it takes a long time to install
[06:04] <xen> I wasn't having a problem with torrent speeds until I started messing with the firewall packages
[06:04] <CVD> the only thing i have righnt know is the xchat no more
[06:05] <thoreauputic> r00723r0: oh OK - why are you using OSS ? I haven't followed the whole convo, obviously
[06:05] <r00723r0> thoreauputic: i'm not, other programs are
[06:05] <xen> I'm wandering how me ports got blocked
[06:05] <Some_Person> winndixie: not to mention the slow speed
[06:05] <CVD> so how  i connected to them
[06:05] <ferronica> how to check SFV for particular application
[06:05] <xen> can anyone see me?
[06:05] <xen> hello?
[06:05] <willis_> xen,  yes.
[06:05] <lazellama> hi
[06:05] <xen> k
[06:05] <jetscreamer> no
[06:05] <thoreauputic> CVD: browser, IRC, mail fetch - lots of possibilities
[06:06] <xen> well I'm wondering how to get my torrents moving faster
[06:06] <dormedas> hello, greywhind or nomasteryoda?
[06:06] <CVD> only i have xchat
[06:06] <CVD> no more
[06:06] <xen> I'm not sure what happened
[06:06] <Nutubuntu> CVD the phx.gbl thing looks like an msn bot, if google searches are to be believed
[06:06] <winndixie> Some_Person: the slow speed? lol
[06:06] <alex20> is ubuntu is so easy to use, why is there so many people aksing for help
[06:06] <xen> I have firestarter firewall turned off and no speed increase
[06:06] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me with a sound input issue, my sound works but I have no audio input
[06:06] <xen> ubuntu is the shit man
[06:06] <Some_Person> xen: use peerguardian to block bad ip's
[06:06] <xen> get it
[06:06] <thoreauputic> CVD: then iftop is showing IRC - but also probably ntp updates, mail being fetched etc
[06:06] <alex20> if ubuntu is so EASY TO USE, WHY IS THERE SO MANY QUESTIONS
[06:06] <xen> well I don't think it's bad ip's
[06:07] <winndixie> i run windows 2003 under VBox with 512MB ram and its as responsive as a 900mhz system
[06:07] <MilitantPotato> Wooooo!!!
[06:07] <Amaranth> xen: you need to configure your router
[06:07] <MilitantPotato> I fixed my CD-ROM
[06:07] <xen> there aren't
[06:07] <Some_Person> xen: just try it, heres the link: http://methpilot.ath.cx/files/peerguardnf-1.5beta.i386.deb
[06:07] <MilitantPotato> Who was having CD-ROM issues?
[06:07] <FFForever> how do i make a copy of my cd?
[06:07] <xen> yeah I don't have a router
[06:07] <Amaranth> alex20: because some people do odd things :)
[06:07] <Some_Person> xen: it always increases the speed somewhat for me
[06:07] <Amaranth> xen: then your ISP is blocking ports
[06:07] <winndixie> Some_Person: and when did web browsing become so resource intensive?
[06:07] <BlueKnight> people even have questions with windows alex20
[06:07] <BlueKnight> lots of questions
[06:07] <winndixie> quit being an ass
[06:07] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, ill try something I didnt notice before but later
[06:07] <thoreauputic> alex20: because people are used to windows :)

[06:07] <xen> what I'm afraid of is that I installed some sort of firewall and it's running in the background
[06:07] <CitizenKane> there anyone that could help me get wireless working in 2.6.22?
[06:07] <FFForever> !iso
[06:07] <ubotu> 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.
[06:08] <Some_Person> xen: you might also want to try making sure port forwarding is set up on your router
[06:08] <Amaranth> CitizenKane: #ubuntu+1
[06:08] <CVD> jobe.wgops.com if apache?
[06:08] <CVD> test?
[06:08] <FFForever> how do i make an iso? from a cd?
[06:08] <CitizenKane> Amaranth, thanks
[06:08] <Some_Person> winndixie: what if you want to watch a video?
[06:08] <thoreauputic> Amaranth: an ass is a donkey by the way :) Not necessarily what you are thinking...
[06:08] <levander> Some_Person: winndixie left
[06:08] <Some_Person> so he did
[06:08] <levander> thoreauputic: lol, i'm sure that's what he meant
[06:08] <MilitantPotato> regeya: Hey, type mount /dev/cdrom to fix the CD-ROM not ejecting
[06:09] <CVD> obe.wgops.com is apache test?
[06:09] <thoreauputic> levander: once upon a time, that's all it ment :)
[06:09] <thoreauputic> *meant
[06:09] <Talcite> hey guys, I can't get my mic working in Ubuntu. ALSA is giving me on hell of a time.
[06:09] <levander> thoreauputic: It is true he didn't append the syllable "hole", you have to give him credit for that.
[06:09] <Talcite> I've compiled the module, and also installed the one in the repos
[06:10] <LiveUSB> Does anyone know how to set a password for a syslinux entry, I have a bootable USB drive that I need to "Quasi Protect".
[06:10] <thoreauputic> levander: :)
[06:10] <xen> don't think of this as a question... but more of a sugquestion. Can anyone explain a shell to me?
[06:10] <Talcite> is there any way to make it work?
[06:10] <Some_Person> Talcite: is it enabled? is the volume all the way down? make sure
[06:10] <BlueKnight> there is software you can get to password lock usb drives
[06:10] <Nutubuntu> CVD sure looks like it.
[06:10] <Talcite> Some_Person: yup, the basic stuff is all done
[06:10] <xen> what's a shell in a nutshell?
[06:10] <BlueKnight> not sure if its os specific, cuz i only know of them for windows liveusb
[06:10] <dormedas> ello nomasteryoda? wow they left already
[06:10] <levander> xen: A shell is just the program that presents a command line to you.  It's where you type commands like "ls" and "cat".
[06:10] <nico____> Hi...I am looking for some help with Qt
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> regeya: are ya there?
[06:10] <Talcite> Some_Person, I can't even test the ALSA sound. It gives me that unable to access blah blah error
[06:11] <willis_> !shell
[06:11] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[06:11] <Some_Person> Talcite: so you have no sound?
[06:11] <xen> ok then why would anyone want to make a "shell"?
[06:11] <xen> what's the point of that?
[06:11] <Talcite> Some_Person: I'm using OSS at the moment, but mic is no good
[06:11] <willis_> xen,  theres a dozen different shells you can use.
[06:11] <Some_Person> Talcite: what is your sound card?
[06:11] <LiveUSB> BlueKnight I know, But I need a boot password with syslinux. has to be this way. I know it can be done... I'm looking at how in the readme.
[06:11] <willis_> shell takes the commands you type, does other things.. and gives back info..
[06:11] <levander> xen: People make shells to provide users with the ability to enter commands.
[06:11] <Talcite> Some_Person: STAC 9221D
[06:11] <willis_> !info fish
[06:11] <ubotu> fish: a friendly interactive shell. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.22.1-2 (feisty), package size 680 kB, installed size 2760 kB
[06:11] <willis_> !info csh
[06:11] <ubotu> csh: Shell with C-like syntax, standard login shell on BSD systems. In component universe, is optional. Version 20060813-1 (feisty), package size 238 kB, installed size 384 kB
[06:12] <xen> ah that makes a bit more sense
[06:12] <LususX> xen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_(computing)
[06:12] <Talcite> Some_Person: it's considered under the Intel HDA codec
[06:12] <willis_> I sort of Like the Fish Shell. :)
[06:12] <Talcite> Some_Person: but I find that a solution that applies to one doesn't apply to all
[06:12] <CVD> i gonna have problems if a disable the system communication bus (dbus) service?
[06:12] <xen> thanks normally I do wiki or google but occasionaly I like to try other sources
[06:12] <Talcite> CVD: yes
[06:12] <xen> like dare I say "a person"
[06:13] <Talcite> CVD: You need that for alot of things, like the wireless front-end
[06:13] <Nutubuntu> o_0 xen
[06:13] <makaira> I need to know how to downgrade my WINE installation. Anybody have any ideas?
[06:13] <wehttamb_> does anyone know if the MSI NOTEBOOK S430-006AU works well with ubuntu
[06:13] <CVD> ok
[06:13] <dormedas> omfg, I need helps here nomasteryoda!
[06:13] <Talcite> CVD: why do you want to disable it anyways?
[06:13] <makaira> I need to go from 0.9.38 to 0.9.33
[06:13] <bayu> what should i do to compile, i can't compile gcc
[06:13] <bayu> 
[06:13] <yellow_chicken> how to echo 3 blank lines on prompt?
[06:13] <levander> makaira: remove and reinstall is my idea
[06:13] <willis_> wehttamb_,  thers several linux laptop web sites that may have reviews/info on them.
[06:13] <Talcite> bayu: err... what's wrong with gcc?
[06:13] <LususX> xen: people in this type of enviroment... get tired of explaining..
[06:13] <makaira> levander: How?
[06:13] <thoreauputic> yellow_chicken: printf "\n\n\n"
[06:13] <wehttamb_> ok
[06:13] <CVD> i dont want services that do nothing
[06:13] <levander> yellow_chicken: "echo ; echo ; echo"
[06:13] <xen> yeah, and we get tired of asking
[06:13] <bayu> i can't compile gcc
[06:14] <wehttamb_> could u give me one
[06:14] <makaira> levander: I used apt-get to install it. what is the command to uninstall? "remove"
[06:14] <levander> makaira: find the package that has the version that you want to install *first*
[06:14] <LususX> xen: yeah :) its a great place to get help
[06:14] <Talcite> CVD: generally speaking, there's not much you can do without in Linux. Ubuntu, there's more you can trim, but realistically it's pretty slim
[06:14] <Some_Person> Talcite: so on alsa, you can't play any sound at all?
[06:14] <makaira> levander: k
[06:14] <CVD> i only surf internet no more
[06:14] <Talcite> CVD: use gentoo if you really want perfectly optimized kernels etc..
[06:14] <levander> makaira: then "sudo apt-get remove <--purge> wine" - if you use --purge, all configuration files will be removed also
[06:14] <Talcite> Some_Person: yeah, no sound with ALSA. I had it working on and off, but it's really on and off
[06:15] <cupps> Can anyone help me with starting 3d acceleration with my ati card? Please? I'm going 4+ hours of trying to run WoW and no luck.
[06:15] <Talcite> bayu: why not get gcc from repos?
[06:15] <thoreauputic> !ati
[06:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:15] <willis_> CVD,  you got such a low end system that you have to worry about such things?
[06:15] <bobby> Can anyone give me 3 good reasons to switch to Ubuntu from OS X as a web developer?
[06:15] <xen> that guy that made zelda and super mario mario is a genius
[06:15] <makaira> levander: can i do a sudo-apt get for an older version of WINE?
[06:15] <dormedas> keep OS X
[06:15] <thoreauputic> !compile > bayu
[06:15] <CVD> a bloodshed for linux?
[06:16] <LususX> i wonder if that bot can teach me how to fly fish...
[06:16] <dormedas> lol install linux along with OS X for fun :D
[06:16] <Talcite> CVD: actually, that's a good point... you shouldn't be using ubuntu if you have that low end of a system. Use xubuntu or something
[06:16] <Nutubuntu> LususX,  if you can put wings on 'em you might could fly 'em
[06:16] <xen> genius inspired by mushrooms
[06:16] <CVD> nop, i just like clean stuff
[06:16] <yellow_chicken> thoreauputic: thanks,  levander echo; echo; is no good inside make file
[06:16] <phil_pi> cupps: 3d accelleration depends on the ATI model
[06:16] <xen> magical mushrooms
[06:16] <LususX> !flyfish
[06:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flyfish - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:16] <bayu> i want to compile it
[06:16] <Talcite> CVD: well then use gentoo, you can get the whole she-bang custom and clean
[06:16] <cupps> ATI Radeon IGP 340M/440M/540M
[06:16] <Talcite> CVD: be prepared to read though
[06:16] <thoreauputic> yellow_chicken: no problem :)
[06:16] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, where the heck are you?? wow
[06:16] <yellow_chicken> thoreauputic: levander, echo -e "\n\n\n"
[06:16] <phil_pi> old cards use ATI driver with DRI for 3d
[06:17] <CVD> amd64 1.8, 512ram
[06:17] <cupps> phil_pi How do I got about setting that up?
[06:17] <thoreauputic> yellow_chicken: yes that works too ...
[06:17] <CVD> 160gb
[06:17] <xen> how long would it take to crack a wep encryption
[06:17] <CVD> a command to post my specs?
[06:17] <Some_Person> Talcite: I can't find anything on google, forums, or anywhere with this problem
[06:17] <xen> on average
[06:17] <Talcite> bayu: hmm... well... generally speaking no one compiles gcc... Even in gentoo when by a sudden stroke of stupidity, you unmerge gcc, people get a binary
[06:17] <thoreauputic> xen: only a few minutes with the right tools and enough traffic
[06:17] <willis_> CVD,  thats enough system to run a LOT of stuff. :)
[06:18] <bobby> Does Linux have any advantages over OS X for web development?
[06:18] <phil_pi> i tried fglrx with radeon mobility 9100IGP, too old for fglrx to support
[06:18] <xen> hmm
[06:18] <Talcite> Some_Person: yeah, same here =/. Thanks for trying to help though, it was good
[06:18] <thoreauputic> xen: use wpa if possible
[06:18] <Talcite> xen: I've heard 2 minutes
[06:18] <vexati0n> aarrrgh
[06:18] <xen> is there an easy way to find out what chipset your wifi card uses?
[06:18] <phil_pi> lots of forum topics in the ubuntu forum on ati drivers
[06:18] <vexati0n> i've been defeated again by microsoft licensing :/
[06:18] <xen> like the id
[06:18] <Talcite> xen: lspci
[06:18] <xen> xxxx:xxxx
[06:18] <xen> yeah?
[06:18] <BSDaemon> bobby: web development is by nature pretty much cross-platform. You can run Firefox on OSX to test your code
[06:19] <Talcite> xen: yeah
[06:19] <xen> lsusb in my case eh
[06:19] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me out with an AC97 sound problem?
[06:19] <crimsun> (lspci -nv)
[06:19] <bryantcaley> hi
[06:19] <xen> I have a linux wusb45g
[06:19] <BlendArt> how would I block ports?
[06:19] <phil_pi> if possible use nvidia
[06:19] <bryantcaley> is ther any way around an "invalid mount option"   ?
[06:19] <LususX> vexati0n: you're in an ubuntu channel.. not M$
[06:19] <Some_Person> Talcite: i suggest you find a way to get your microphone just working on oss
[06:19] <willis_> !firewall
[06:19] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:19] <bryantcaley> can i force mount a dvd ?
[06:19] <thoreauputic> BlendArt: firestarter (GUI) iptables ( commands)
[06:19] <vexati0n> LususX, yeah i know. but the interpipes directed my packets here for some reason.
[06:19] <CVD> ( /specs )
[06:20] <CVD> ?
[06:20] <BlendArt> thoreauputic: thanks
[06:20] <Talcite> Some_Person: hmm... I'll try heh. Thanks. Oh actually, do you know how to get a usb mic working with linux? for some reason when I recompiled the ALSA drivers, I ended up deleting the USB support =S
[06:20] <LususX> vexati0n: it's much more fun here..
[06:20] <Talcite> CVD: what are you trying to do again?
[06:20] <thoreauputic> BlendArt: unless you are running Internet-facing services you really don't need to
[06:21] <NeoGeo64> I love Gnometris and GNU chess
[06:21] <thoreauputic> BlendArt: in Ubuntu nothing is listening by default
[06:21] <NeoGeo64> i installed ubuntu just so i could play them
[06:21] <phil_pi> cupps: uninstall fglrx from the package manager. worst case if x doesn't start, you're prompted to restore a default xorg.conf that will start x.
[06:21] <xubuntunoob> is there a channel just for xubuntu, or is this channel for all flavors?
[06:21] <thoreauputic> xubuntunoob:  #xubuntu
[06:21] <Talcite> xubuntunoob: there's a channel for xubuntu
[06:21] <wehttamb_> i am looking at this laptop http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BRAND-NEW-MSI-NOTEBOOK-WITH-FREE-POSTAGE_W0QQitemZ320136994726QQihZ011QQcategoryZ177QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem and i would like to know if it would be compatible with ubunt.
[06:21] <xubuntunoob> ok, thanks
[06:21] <CVD> tu post my specs with a command here
[06:21] <bayu> ok , i already install gcc (apt-get install gcc), and when i ./configure, its write
[06:21] <bayu> swig false, phyton false, ruby false.  what is that mean
[06:21] <cupps> phil_pi And then what do I do? After uninstall the other driver?
[06:22] <CVD> xchat
[06:22] <Talcite> CVD: don't do that, you'll get kicked
[06:22] <xen> oh one more question
[06:22] <wehttamb_> does anyone know if it would be compatible?
[06:22] <Talcite> CVD: use a paste-bin
[06:22] <Talcite> CVD: google for one
[06:22] <LiveUSB> anyone good with syslinux booting / Configuring
[06:22] <phil_pi> cupps: restart x
[06:22] <Some_Person> CVD: http://pastebin.ubuntu.nl
[06:22] <xen> whats a good scanning thing for ubuntu
[06:22] <BlendArt> thoreauputic: I found an open ports that I want to close
[06:22] <phil_pi> you'll get the old ati open source settings back
[06:22] <Treeform> hey any one know where keyring stores its files so that i can move it to my other system?
[06:22] <Some_Person> someone should put that link back in the topic
[06:22] <Talcite> bayu: you're missing dependencies
[06:22] <thoreauputic> bayu:  apt-get install build-essential - don't know what those errors might be though
[06:22] <CVD> i dont want to paste something,
[06:23] <Talcite> CVD: I thought you wanted to paste your lspci specs?
[06:23] <Nutubuntu> Some_Person, it's there
[06:23] <CVD> i want that xchat post my spec CPU,Memory with a command
[06:23] <thoreauputic> BlendArt: then stop running whatecer is listening on it, ubless you need it
[06:23] <thoreauputic> *ubless
[06:23] <thoreauputic> bah
[06:23] <xen> eh... build essential should come already installed
[06:23] <Some_Person> oh, so it is
[06:23] <thoreauputic> I give up :)
[06:23] <php_> oi
[06:23] <bayu> what dependencies ,,  i already apt-get install build-essential
[06:23] <LiveUSB> I can't seem to password my bootable USB drive, - Not sure if I even can .. ( and I mean password on boot Via Syslinux or equivilent
[06:24] <Tixer> how do I do a gnome login session using SSH?
[06:24] <Talcite> bayu: there's alot more dependencies than just build-essential =P
[06:24] <thoreauputic> bayu: if you can't compile, you usually need -dev packages
[06:24] <Some_Person> i think ubuntu should make a human kde theme, then we can make kde apps in ubuntu look better
[06:24] <willis_> i always change the Human theme  :)
[06:24] <Talcite> bayu: what are you trying to build?
[06:24] <Talcite> bayu: also, did you set the use flags?
[06:25] <bayu> how can i get -dev packages
[06:25] <Some_Person> i liked the old human theme in 5.10-
[06:25] <Talcite> bayu: no explicit need, but it's generally good practice
[06:25] <thoreauputic> bayu: what are you building ?
[06:25] <Some_Person> but its gone for good (the "human legacy" in 7.04 doesn't look quite like the original)
[06:25] <bayu> i build geos
[06:25] <thoreauputic> !geos
[06:25] <phil_pi> i hope cupps gets x to start
[06:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about geos - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:26] <thoreauputic> !info geos
[06:26] <ubotu> Package geos does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:26] <willis_> Geos? that old C64 Operating system?
[06:26] <willis_> :)
[06:26] <PurpZeY> How can I make AC97 playback appear as an input device like a mic?
[06:27] <c_lisp> Tixter startx
[06:27] <phil_pi> ati drivers are such a pain
[06:27] <CVD> damn Googleityoumoron.com is down
[06:27] <Some_Person> !ping
[06:27] <ubotu> pong
[06:27] <CVD> and now waht i do when some one ask a stupid thing
[06:28] <Talcite> ahaha CVD: shoot =P
[06:28] <willis_> CVD,  ignore them like we do. :)
[06:28] <phil_pi> google = rtfm
[06:28] <PurpZeY> CVD: Was that addressed to me?
[06:28] <thoreauputic> CVD: we don't encourage rude answers here :)
[06:28] <fistfullofroses> but rude answers can be funny
[06:28] <thoreauputic> true
[06:28] <thoreauputic> :)
[06:29] <CVD> :-(
[06:29] <PurpZeY> Does anyone know anything about a setting up a sound pass through?
[06:29] <Nutubuntu> PurpZeY,  no, but what *is* a sound pass through?
[06:29] <willis_> "We spread the love of Ubuntu!"
[06:29] <thoreauputic> PurpZeY: somebody somewhere probably does
[06:29] <LiveUSB> any one know of a way to put a password on a bootable flash drive? (a boot password) I've tried with syslinux but I keep failing. skips right over the "MENU PASSWD xxxxx" and keeps right on booting
[06:29] <MilitantPotato> !lostCD
[06:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lostcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:29] <MilitantPotato> :(
[06:30] <CVD> i have 3 months using linux with-out the other os and you?
[06:30] <PurpZeY> Nutubuntu: When I was in windows, I could play mp3s in winamp or whatever, and what was coming out of my speakers, could also be set as an output device, like a mic, so I could stream it...I went to do it yesterday and I can't
[06:30] <Talcite> CVD: I'm going on a year now =D
[06:30] <Talcite> CVD: even went to gentoo to learn more
[06:31] <willis_> Talcite,  and what did ya learn? That gentoo was a hassle? :)
[06:31] <Almighty_Henaro> Okay guys I broke something!
[06:31] <Some_Person> PurpZeY: what did you use to stream it? i just want to know so i can do it
[06:31] <Almighty_Henaro> 8D
[06:31] <Talcite> willis_: ahaha well indeed it kind of is
[06:31] <willis_> Talcite,  ya learned to read the docs - i guess.. :) gentoo promotes that.
[06:31] <Almighty_Henaro> I think I broke x
[06:31] <PurpZeY> Some_Person: I was doing it via Webcam conference.
[06:31] <Talcite> willis_: yeah, I learned CLI, real well =D
[06:31] <Some_Person> oh
[06:31] <Talcite> willis_: it's good since I'm programming
[06:31] <Almighty_Henaro> I uninstalled xserver-xgl and compiz
[06:31] <willis_> i learned to install a minimal gentoo system. and ssh over, so i could cut.paste commands to install the rest. :)
[06:32] <Almighty_Henaro> And now my mouse is a X and I have no working panels
[06:32] <CVD> checkinstall its good to create a personal .deb
[06:32] <Almighty_Henaro> And my window decorations are goen
[06:32] <Almighty_Henaro> ;~;
[06:32] <Almighty_Henaro> gone*
[06:32] <Talcite> willis_: ahaha damn I should have done that =P
[06:32] <Talcite> willis_: but yeah, I need to compile a kernel now. A new one came out! =D .20-21
[06:32] <willis_> Talcite,  made it much easier. :)  could read the web site docs and just cut/paste along...
[06:32] <Almighty_Henaro> Anyone know what the deal is?
[06:32] <Some_Person> Almighty: alt+f2, type in metacity
[06:32] <phil_pi> henaro: sounds like plain old xfre86 without gnome
[06:32] <MilitantPotato> argh
[06:33] <Talcite> willis_: indeed lol. yeah I should have done something like that
[06:33] <Almighty_Henaro> Nothing happens when Itype alt f2
[06:33] <phil_pi> a gray screen with a white X for the mouse cursor
[06:33] <Talcite> willis_: I just copied it over by hand heh
[06:33] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: ALT+F2 should bring up a prompt
[06:33] <Almighty_Henaro> It's not
[06:33] <MilitantPotato> Does it make me a bad linux user since I have no desire to learn the commands for everything?
[06:33] <phil_pi> debian ca. 1995
[06:33] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: then just do it in terminal
[06:33] <Almighty_Henaro> Woooh that worked ;D
[06:34] <obf213> is it normal to be able to save on your windows hdd
[06:34] <obf213> i think i just did that
[06:34] <Almighty_Henaro> Do I have to change my start up scripts?
[06:34] <thoreauputic> Almighty_Henaro: ctrl-alt-F1, login, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart ; login to gnome again
[06:34] <thoreauputic> Almighty_Henaro: sounds like you lost metacity and gnome
[06:34] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: if it goes away after closing the terminal, restart X using CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[06:34] <BlueKnight> anyone with a decient amount of experience with ubuntu able to help walk me through a walk through? *blush*
[06:34] <ce_16_simple> hy
[06:35] <ce_16_simple> jdiweurdifol
[06:35] <Almighty_Henaro> It didn't go away Some_Person
[06:35] <CVD> i pay $25 for 512/256 its that ok?
[06:35] <thebigham> how do i install counter strike to ubuntu with a CD?
[06:35] <Almighty_Henaro> But I'm wondering if Ihave to change startup scripts or not
[06:35] <phil_pi> as long as it's just xfree without gnome, you might as well try fvwm95
[06:35] <thoreauputic> Almighty_Henaro: I doubt it
[06:35] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: good, now if you put any sort of thing that starts beryl/compiz/xgl at startup, remove it
[06:36] <phil_pi> Blast from the pAST
[06:36] <willis_> phil_pi,  icewm :)
[06:36] <willis_> olvwm!
[06:36] <tamale> can someone please help me with my fonts?  they look great in everything now except firefox
[06:36] <phil_pi> j/k about thw win 95 look & feel
[06:36] <Almighty_Henaro> Some_Person, that'll be tough I installed those a long time ago e_e.  Hopefully I don't destroy anything
[06:37] <phil_pi> willis: i keep hearing icewm is good
[06:37] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: System -> Preferences (maybe administration, i'm on windows right now) -> Sessions
[06:37] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: see if theres any beryl/compiz/xgl stuff in there
[06:37] <Almighty_Henaro> Doesn't look like it
[06:38] <Qodosh> I have a syntax error when I use sudo...I was wondering why my package manager wouldnt work....and pretty much all my stuff that uses sudo doesnt work....well it has a syntax error....anyone know how I might fix it?
[06:38] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: also check System Admistration (or preferences) -> Desktop Effects
[06:38] <Some_Person> Almight_Henaro: disable it if its enabled
[06:38] <bruenig> Qodosh, paste the exact command you are using
[06:38] <phil_pi> when compiz is installed,theres a configuration app where you can switch back to metacity.
[06:39] <Almighty_Henaro> Desktop effects seems to be missing
[06:39] <Almighty_Henaro> e_e
[06:39] <metbsd> how to tar one more time
[06:39] <fistfullofroses> you could just use aptitude purge beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-settings emerald emerald-themes
[06:39] <metbsd> retar?
[06:39] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: are you on fiesty?
[06:39] <phil_pi> i found uninstalling compiz/beryl can leave its settings in place.
[06:39] <Almighty_Henaro> Yeah ._.
[06:39] <fistfullofroses> and then remove those from the Ubuntu Autostarted Apps
[06:39] <Qodosh> bruenig:  sudo
[06:39] <maxagaz> how to repair a system that lost /bin directory among others, after a fsck ?
[06:39] <bruenig> Qodosh, sudo what?
[06:39] <Some_Person> Almighty_Henaro: then you should have it
[06:39] <bruenig> Qodosh, you don't just do "sudo" you do "sudo other stuff"
[06:39] <phil_pi> you might reinstall compiz, switch to metacity in the config, then uninstall again
[06:40] <bruenig> just delete the config files in the home directory
[06:40] <bruenig> compiz people
[06:40] <Almighty_Henaro> I think compiz fusion blew it up
[06:40] <maxagaz> can someone help ?
[06:40] <BlueKnight> Can someone help me with some problems i'm having with this walkthrough? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT61
[06:40] <Some_Person> remember, gutsy will come with compiz fusion
[06:40] <Qodosh> bruenig: sudo anything
[06:40] <fistfullofroses> bruenig : sudo -s
[06:41] <bruenig> Qodosh, sudo anything doesn't work obviously, because anything is not a command
[06:41] <fistfullofroses> that will give you root privileges for an entire session in Xterm
[06:41] <Qodosh> root@qodosh-laptop:/home/qodosh# sudo apt-get install
[06:41] <Qodosh> >>> sudoers file: syntax error, line 20 <<<
[06:41] <Qodosh> sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 20
[06:41] <Qodosh> there is a specific example for oyu
[06:41] <Warp4_work> bruenig, try replacinging the 'anything' with a command
[06:41] <bruenig> finally he participates
[06:41] <bruenig> awesome
[06:41] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: have you messed with /etc/sudoers ?
[06:41] <bruenig> it is cool when the people who come for help actually participate
[06:42] <bruenig> instead of talking in generalities as if they know something
[06:42] <BlueKnight> hey :P
[06:42] <Qodosh> thoreaputic: I ran a script that automated the chroot jail process
[06:42] <fistfullofroses> Anyone here know anything about AfterStep window manager?
[06:42] <Some_Person> i remember when i first started with ubuntu, good ol' 5.10
[06:42] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: well evidently it broke your /etc/sudoers
[06:42] <bruenig> Qodosh, yeah that is obviously a sudoers error, if you don't have a root account you are going to need to fix it in live cd
[06:42] <BlueKnight> hrm..... windows 3.2...
[06:43] <fistfullofroses> or you can create a root password aand use su
[06:43] <Some_Person> BlieKnight: Windows 3.2 was a Chinese update of Windows 3.11
[06:43] <Qodosh> bruenig: yeah I thought so, arg.
[06:43] <bruenig> fistfullofroses, how do you suppose he do that without sudo
[06:43] <Qodosh> I do have a root password
[06:43] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: you will probably need to boot "recovery mode" and get a root prompt then run visudo
[06:43] <BlueKnight> erm... well them.. it was a while ago :P
[06:43] <Qodosh> I can do what I need to do
[06:43] <fistfullofroses> go into the users and groups manu
[06:43] <fistfullofroses> menu*
[06:43] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: then run visudo
[06:43] <BlueKnight> Can someone help me with some problems i'm having with this walkthrough? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT61
[06:43] <fistfullofroses> then create and actual root password
[06:43] <bruenig> fistfullofroses, and that doesn't require a password?
[06:44] <thoreauputic> Qodosh:  %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
[06:44] <bruenig> fistfullofroses, when you go into users and groups?
[06:44] <fistfullofroses> yeah but it isn't realted to sudo
[06:44] <thoreauputic> from memory
[06:44] <Qodosh> fistfullofroses: I already have a root password.
[06:44] <bruenig> fistfullofroses, kind of is
[06:44] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: see above
[06:44] <fistfullofroses> well, either way, might work
[06:44] <fistfullofroses> I know that gksu relies on the same libraries but I am not sure about how it is configured
[06:45] <maxagaz> can I execute fsck on a HFS+ partition ?
[06:45] <fistfullofroses> after entering the users and groups menu create a root pass, and thereafter open a terminal and type su
[06:45] <fistfullofroses> if there already is a root password beyond the normal user account, just use su with the root pass
[06:45] <bruenig> fistfullofroses, break your /etc/sudoers and then try that, I am interested to see if it works, I am willing to be it doesn't
[06:45] <bruenig> bet*
[06:45] <thoreauputic> fistfullofroses: this is not needed to fix /etc/sudoers
[06:46] <thoreauputic> fistfullofroses: he has a root passwd - he needs to run visudo
[06:46] <bruenig> even if he didn't have it, that is not a solution
[06:46] <thoreauputic> bruenig: yes it is - what do you mean ?
[06:46] <fistfullofroses> su is not sudo and they are unrelated
[06:46] <bruenig> thoreauputic, if sudo is broken, you cannot create a root account with sudo, now since he has a root account already all is good
[06:46] <thoreauputic> *cough* visudo
[06:46] <fistfullofroses> if he has a root pass he can su and nano and fix the sudoers file
[06:47] <thoreauputic> bruenig: exactly
[06:47] <thoreauputic> bruenig: thus he can run visudo and fix /etc/sudoers
[06:47] <bruenig> thoreauputic, maybe you didn't read, guy says sudo is broken, fistfullofroses says fix sudo by making a root account using sudo
[06:47] <nishoe> hi
[06:47] <bruenig> now that is problematic I would say
[06:47] <thoreauputic> bruenig: I said - several times - "run visudo"
[06:48] <fistfullofroses> No, I said use your users and groups menu which uses gksu to give root priveleges
[06:48] <bruenig> thoreauputic, I am not talking about you idiot
[06:48] <bruenig> read
[06:48] <thoreauputic> bruenig: since he has a root password he can run visudo
[06:48] <bruenig> I realize this is one of the more incompetent rooms on freenode but seriously has it sunken this low
[06:48] <thoreauputic> bruenig: excuse me, did you just call me an idiot?
[06:48] <Qodosh> su works
[06:48] <Qodosh> I can get root account
[06:48] <boricua_tech> I've got problems connecting to the web with Ubuntu
[06:48] <Qodosh> I am in visudo
[06:48] <Qodosh> now what
[06:48] <boricua_tech> can anyone help me?
[06:48] <Jerome_> 12:45am up 210 days, 2:12, 1 user, load average: 0.15, 0.05, 0.02
[06:48] <Jerome_> heh, so bored.
[06:49] <thoreauputic> Qodosh:  %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
[06:49] <nishoe> i have a widescreen on my laptop but my screen resolution is not right. so i see my stuff compressd above downwards...  i tried changing the resolution but the sides of the screen flickers
[06:49] <Warp4_work> boricua_tech, what kind of problems are you having?
[06:49] <boricua_tech> well, it's kinda weird
[06:49] <boricua_tech> I'm running my laptop with XP/Ubuntu double boot
[06:49] <boricua_tech> I can connect to the internet with xp
[06:50] <boricua_tech> and now I can't with Ubuntu
[06:50] <boricua_tech> In the past I could
[06:50] <Warp4_work> boricua_tech, have you checked your network settings?
[06:50] <DisabledDuck> what is a good DVD burning application?
[06:50] <ari_stress> !ltsp
[06:50] <ubotu> LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project
[06:50] <boricua_tech> what should I look for in the settings/
[06:51] <ari_stress> !dhcpd.conf
[06:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dhcpd.conf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:51] <ari_stress> !lts.conf
[06:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lts.conf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:51] <Qodosh> thoreauputic: what do I do with  %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL .....?
[06:51] <Some_Person> Is there some sort of perfect Windows MCE sorta-like thingy for ubuntu
[06:51] <xoRock> need help, what is the different apt-get build-dep / apt-get install?
[06:51] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: that's the line to enable sudo for members of the admin group
[06:51] <Qodosh> oh do I put that under the root line?
[06:52] <thoreauputic> yes
[06:52] <thoreauputic> then save and exit
[06:52] <bullgard4> Using the 'Create_Launcher' dialog I created a panel applet. It works all right. What is the filename of this Launcher?
[06:53] <NemesisD> wow i am having a heck of a lot of problems with running ubuntu on this machine
[06:53] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  That line is already in the text, just not right under root
[06:53] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: is your user in the admin group?
[06:53] <Qodosh> no
[06:53] <Qodosh> that might be a problem
[06:53] <Qodosh> lol
[06:53] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: well then adduser <username> admin
[06:53] <Qodosh> just a bunch of users I dont want in that group
[06:53] <Qodosh> :p
[06:54] <boricua_tech> Warp4_work, what do I need to check in my Network Settings to make sure it runs ok?
[06:54] <dormedas> nomasteryoda, are you here?
[06:54] <NemesisD> question, how do i add the network manager to the panel? I added one I found in the menu but its not the same one as I have on my other machine, if that makes any sense
[06:54] <Warp4_work> boricua_tech, check everything ... whether you are using static or dhcp IP assignments mainly.
[06:54] <bullgard4> How to use the program Tracker via Nautilus? I do not understand the section 'Tracker And Nautilus Search' in /usr/share/doc/tracker-search-tool/README.gz.
[06:54] <boricua_tech> well I'm DHCP
[06:54] <thoreauputic> bruenig: by the way, next time you call anyone an idiot in here you will be muted
[06:55] <NemesisD> the one that I use on my regular machine it allows me to choose different locations with presets for each
[06:55] <Qodosh> thoreauputic: it says that the user is already a member of the admin group?
[06:55] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: then I don't know what the problem is
[06:55] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: did you use the visudo command ? Or an editor only?
[06:55] <dormedas> gawd, nomasteryoda, RESPOND ... please?
[06:56] <weirdbro> Why can't I force update-manager to a version from feisty-proposed to update to Gutsy alpha 3?
[06:56] <DisabledDuck> anybody know a good DVD burning app?
[06:56] <Qodosh> thoreauputic: visudo
[06:56] <boricua_tech> Warp4_work, now that I think about it, it all started after I used some ipconfig commands in XP
[06:56] <thoreauputic> OK
[06:56] <Jedusor> K3B
[06:56] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: you still can't use sudo?
[06:56] <astrobill> can anyone help me get my IBM wireless usb mouse to work in ubuntu?
[06:56] <dormedas> greywhind, you here either?
[06:56] <boricua_tech> can it be related
[06:56] <DisabledDuck> jedusor: k3b doesn't work too well for me
[06:56] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: have you logged out /in ?
[06:56] <nishoe> hi... i need some help using a modem via bluetooth
[06:57] <Qodosh> # User privilege specification
[06:57] <Qodosh> root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
[06:57] <Qodosh> # Members of the admin group may gain root privileges

[06:57] <Qodosh> /bin/test1       ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/chroot, /bin/su - /bin/test1
[06:57] <Qodosh> Test       ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/chroot, /bin/su - Test
[06:57] <Qodosh> Test       ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/chroot, /bin/su - Test
[06:57] <Qodosh> test       ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/chroot, /bin/su - test
[06:57] <Qodosh> Test1       ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/chroot, /bin/su - Test1
[06:57] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: don't paste
[06:57] <Qodosh> Thats what it looks like
[06:57] <Jedusor> you can use Gnomebaker
[06:57] <Warp4_work> boricua_tech, try running '/sbin/ifconfig eth0' and see what results you get.
[06:57] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: never paste in the channel
[06:57] <noodles12> I'm using feisty. I mounted a USB drive and when i try to unmount it, it says that it is still "writing to the device". Any suggestions on how to eject this?
[06:57] <boricua_tech> i'm gonna try
[06:58] <boricua_tech> I'll be back
[06:58] <Qodosh> thought it would help
[06:58] <Qodosh> ...
[06:58] <NemesisD> noodles12, did you try umount -f?
[06:58] <jordan_> I have a kde config question when someone gets a chance.
[06:58] <noodles12> NemesisD: no, i just tried the 'right-click>eject
[06:58] <dormedas> can anyone else help me with running X server? I've been trying unsuccessfully for two hours now :(
[06:58] <bullgard4> NemesisD: Typing in a terminal 'usr/bin/network-admin' may help.
[06:58] <weirdbro> I need help upgrading to a Gutsy Alpha
[06:58] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: that file looks quite wrong - I suggest you consult the man page for :sudoers"
[06:59] <NemesisD> noodles12, try sudo umount -f /media/devicename
[06:59] <Nutubuntu> Gnight all
[06:59] <jordan_> dormedas: what error do you get?
[06:59] <dormedas> jordan_: umm, no screen(s) found
[06:59] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  okay
[06:59] <dormedas> jordan_: x server failed to run  as well :P
[07:00] <jordan_> dormedas, what video card?
[07:00] <noodles12> NemesisD: how do i know what the device name is? it is written as "disk" woudl that be it?
[07:00] <Lunis> I installed Ubuntu onto it's own hard drive using VMWare, but when I try to boot to that hard drive over usb it says "Error Loading Operating System" or something to that effect
[07:00] <wehttamb_> has anyone used a MSI S340 with ubuntu?
[07:00] <dormedas> jordan_: Nvidia GeForce 4 MX 4000 PCI
[07:00] <Cubey> is it just me, or is ubuntu slower than windows xp pro? :\
[07:00] <noodles12> NemesisD: nvm it worked. thanks! out of curiosity. How come that worked but ejecting it normally wouldn't?
[07:00] <Lunis> Cubey, just you more than likely
[07:01] <Some_Person> ubuntu is faster than Windows XP Home ("updated" to MCE) for me
[07:01] <BlueKnight> Can someone help me with some problems i'm having with this walkthrough? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT61
[07:01] <jordan_> dormedas, tried installing the nvidia proprietary yet? or is that what caused the problem?
[07:01] <nishoe> hi... i need some help using a modem via bluetooth
[07:01] <dormedas> jordan_; nvidia proprietary?
[07:01] <Cubey> Lunis, well, i swear, it seems overall a bit slower. i have the official nvidia driver installed as well. hm
[07:01] <wehttamb_> has anyone used a MSI S340 with ubuntu?
[07:01] <NemesisD> Cubey, depends on the computer
[07:01] <jordan_> dormedas, is this a fresh ubuntu install, or did something change recently?
[07:01] <Lunis> Cubey, always been faster for me, even with beryl running, etc
[07:01] <BlueKnight> network adaptor?
[07:02] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  I can't find an example layout...not sure if man pages will help, well I will keep reading.
[07:02] <NemesisD> ubuntu certainly loads a hell of a lot faster than xp
[07:02] <weirdbro> Has anyone upgraded to the latest Gutsy Alpha?
[07:02] <dormedas> jordan_: ah, forgot to mention this is a live CD for feisty, trying to install so i can use internet and get off this windows
[07:02] <robomoore> Flannel: open up
[07:02] <Cubey> NemesisD, I've run XP Pro on this computer and it seemed at least 50% faster
[07:02] <jordan_> And would anyone know how to add items to "DesktopMenu" for right clicking on the desktop?
[07:02] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: near the bottom
[07:02] <jsestri2> I just finished an upgrade from dapper to feisty (upgrade-manager) and now I get the blue screen telling me that X is configured incorrectly. Tried dpkg-reconfigure, no luck now what?
[07:02] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: the commands come after the user name etc
[07:02] <Cubey> I'm not here to glorify windows, i'm just wondering what the deal is. :/
[07:03] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: you seem to have put then first
[07:03] <thoreauputic> *them
[07:03] <NemesisD> Cubey, i imagine something has gone awry with your installation then, that hasn't really been my experience
[07:03] <jordan_> dormedas, thinking one sec... sounds like a video driver issue, unsure...
[07:03] <nishoe> anybody here can help me with a bluetooth problem? can i use a bluetooth modem to connect to internet?
[07:03] <Cubey> NemesisD, it's a fresh install done today after my other HD i installed to die after a few days ..
[07:03] <weltschmerz> Linux has given me massive headaches.  Just nothing that compares with Windows.  Even BeOS _occasionally_ frustrated me.
[07:03] <dormedas> jordan_: i worked on this with Greywhind, then nomasteryoda, and still no luck
[07:03] <noodles12> Cubey: I agree with Nemesis. I just recently reinstalled windows and feisty and feisty is a lot faster to me too. I'm working on a core duo notebook.
[07:04] <dormedas> jordan_: both Grey and nomasteryoda appear to be AFK
[07:04] <Cubey> i mean it's not SLOW but it seems less responsive than windows and video wise seems sluggish a wee bit
[07:04] <jordan_> And would anyone know how to add items to "DesktopMenu" for right clicking on the desktop?
[07:04] <Cubey> maybe it's an issue with xorg,conf, I don't know.
[07:04] <sleeper> would anyone know why my Ubuntu freezes in the beginning when it shows the logo, but then after a minute, it goes through quickly and loads up
[07:04] <sleeper> there is a pause
[07:05] <NemesisD> actually this computer im installing ubuntu on loads ubuntu very slow but it also seems to have some other problems which I'm currently attributing to the 8 year old hard drive i'm using
[07:05] <jordan_> dorm: switching to pm to lessen load in the room :)
[07:05] <dormedas> jordan_: k
[07:05] <Cubey> I'm running a (crappy, i know) 2.4GHz celeron 478. but ram is 1.5GB so i'm good in that dept and the video is pretty decent; FX5500 256MB
[07:05] <nishoe> NemesisD: 8 years! wow!!!
[07:05] <dormedas> Cubey: crappy you say?
[07:06] <Cubey> dormedas, referring to the celeron cpu
[07:06] <dormedas> Cubey: I have a 1.8 GHz celeron, so dont feel bad
[07:06] <darnell_> anyone know why i get a blank screen when loading frostwire or limewire?
[07:06] <Qodosh> sudoers suppose to be .tmp file?
[07:06] <jordan_> dormedas, did you get pm?
[07:06] <dormedas> jordan_: no
[07:06] <Lunis> so what do i do with the fact that i can't boot to a ubuntu that i installed using vmware?
[07:06] <noodles12> I have xubuntu edgy on a P3 old dell and that is sluggish. It lags opening up swiftfox or the filebrowser >.<
[07:06] <Cubey> well, in comparison to the duo core stuff etc it's pretty outdated now *sigh*
[07:06] <NemesisD> i run ubuntu on my laptop that has a 1.5ghz celeron and it does pretty well, even with beryl (on a generic crappy video card)
[07:07] <dormedas> jordan_: im working on getting myself registered here so i can PM
[07:07] <dormedas> jordan_: i forgot how :P
[07:07] <jordan_> Ah... might be why I can't either... hehe
[07:07] <bruenig> noodles12, swiftfox is a joke
[07:07] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  when I am done editing, am I suppose to be saving it as sudoers.tmp  ?
[07:07] <dormedas> jordan_: oh well go ahead :P
[07:07] <Syncro> Umm. does anyone know how to get Mplayer of Firefox/Mozilla working?  I cant stream this video http://demos.pourix.com/demos/brako/WMS/WMS-Lesson0.avi
[07:07] <noodles12> bruenig: what do you mean? I only use it because it's supposed to be lighter in resources than ff
[07:08] <jordan_> dormedas, there should be some log files that can tell you what failed... one sec and I'll find location...
[07:08] <blargman> whats a good vm app for running the backtrack2 is on ubuntu? :s
[07:08] <dormedas> jordan_: /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[07:08] <bruenig> noodles12, says who? the guy who makes the changes to the source and never releases them or tells you how it is allegedly faster?
[07:08] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: normally when you use visudo it simply saves as /etc/sudoers - visudo checks your synatax and tells you if you mage errors
[07:08] <Cubey> firefox is a good example to use. if i have one open and i open another, it takes several seconds in ubuntu. windows is almost instant ..

[07:08] <bruenig> Syncro, make sure totem-mozilla is uninstalled

[07:09] <jordan_> dormedas, yep, that's the one... look for WW's

[07:09] <Khrajin> What is the main difference between Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Server? Could you just add LAMP to Ubuntu Desktop and have it be effectively the same as Ubuntu server?
[07:09] <jordan_> Anyone know how to edit desktop right-click menus?
[07:09] <Lunis> :<
[07:09] <jd_> hey levander
[07:09] <bruenig> Khrajin, ubuntu server doesn't have a gui
[07:09] <thoreauputic> Khrajin: ubuntu server has no gui
[07:10] <fatcarlos3> cant get any resolution other than 600x800 Ihave a radeon 9200 and already "tried" to install the Fglrx
[07:10] <dormedas> jordan_: ive been working on this forever and have tried tons of stuff :(
[07:10] <fatcarlos3> help please
[07:10] <Khrajin> Beyond no Gui, any diff?
[07:10] <Qodosh> thoreauputic: I got it to work! I knew that those test usernames came from experimenting with that script, well I just deleted those lines, and the syntax error is gone!
[07:10] <bruenig> Khrajin, no
[07:10] <fatcarlos3> :(
[07:10] <Khrajin> PFft! I'm installing Desktop!
[07:10] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: good :)
[07:10] <Tixer> How can I get GNOME to log me in using the terminal?
[07:10] <Khrajin> <-- Gui Admin
[07:10] <Cubey> someone in another channel made an interesting point
[07:10] <hyphenated> Khrajin: all the packages come from the same source, the 'server' and 'desktop' just install a different default set of packages
[07:10] <jordan_> dormedas, I know, when it breaks it can be fustrating...
[07:10] <jd_> anyone know anything bout ubuntu firewall
[07:10] <Khrajin> hyphenated: Woot. Neat
[07:10] <bruenig> Tixer, what do you mean?
[07:10] <Cubey> "keep in mind that XP Pro is a 2001 OS and you're probably using a 2007 version of Linux"
[07:10] <Syncro> I cant view it right now but thanks
[07:10] <Cubey> regarding my comment about ubuntu seeming slower
[07:10] <Syncro> Cuz my internet is slow
[07:10] <Qodosh> thoreauputic: my user is not in the text, but admin is set so ....I guess that counts for my user which is in that group...even though it isnt showing up in that text file?  heh bit confused, but hey its works, thanks man, appreciate all the help! :)
[07:10] <jd_> levander
[07:11] <fatcarlos3> ok
[07:11] <jordan_> dormedas, cat that log file and look for WW's which show warning, basically failures... got any that stand out?
[07:11] <dormedas> jordan_: umm, otherwise ive ruled out a driver issue because doing all the driver "nv, vesa" stuff doesnt work. I edited devices in the conf file
[07:11] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: yes, any user in the admin group has sudo privileges
[07:11] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: assuming the line I gave you
[07:11] <jordan_> dormedas, there has to be something in that log file then
[07:12] <dormedas> jordan_: The bad thing is that im running the ubuntu on this box (dual boot) so ill need to shut down restart, boot, check, then report back
[07:12] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: so be careful who you add to the admin group :)
[07:12] <Qodosh> but my user doesnt have to show up under the admin line does it, cause its in the group, but the actual username isnt listed in the text file, the only thing that is listed is root, and than that admin line
[07:12] <jordan_> dormedas, Ah... no spare box huh?
[07:12] <Tixer> brunig: I want to cause my account to do a graphical logon, using only commands I can type in SSH
[07:12] <Master_Medic> what is the alternative version?
[07:12] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: right - the %admin means "any user in admin group"
[07:12] <dormedas> jordan_: it's late hours and i dont want to go rushing into my sisters room to use her comp
[07:12] <freeagy> hello
[07:12] <Khrajin> How do you have Ubuntu Desktop boot to command line login, and not load the GUI?
[07:12] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  You learn something new every day! :)
[07:12] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: got it?
[07:13] <bruenig> Khrajin, disable gdm
[07:13] <Busata> there any program like mp32ogg, but the other way around? :-)
[07:13] <Qodosh> thoreauputic:  entirely I think! :p
[07:13] <dormedas> jordan_: sorry bout that :P
[07:13] <thoreauputic> Qodosh: OK :)
[07:13] <bruenig> !info soundrecorder | Busata
[07:13] <Khrajin> bruenig: But I want to be able to load the gui after I login
[07:13] <ubotu> busata: Package soundrecorder does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:13] <freeagy> i have a little problem
[07:13] <bruenig> Khrajin, ok
[07:13] <blargman> anyone recommend a virtual machine software for ubuntu?
[07:13] <jordan_> dormedas, no problems, but finding out what is causing it to crash would be extremely helpful...
[07:13] <bruenig> !info soundconverter | Busata
[07:13] <thoreauputic> !info soundconverter
[07:13] <ubotu> busata: soundconverter: convert sound files to other formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.4-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 67 kB, installed size 360 kB
[07:13] <Busata> bruenig, cheers!
[07:13] <dormedas> jordan_: one thing, how would I be able to scroll in the console? :P i keep trying and cant xD
[07:14] <jordan_> dormedas, shift page up
[07:14] <bruenig> Khrajin, you are familiar with startx I assume?
[07:14] <hsimah`out> does any one have a texas instruments flashmedia reader in their laptop?
[07:14] <dormedas> jordan_: ah thanks
[07:14] <xoRock> need help, which is better using apt-get install or apt-get build-dep?
[07:14] <Khrajin> bruenig: Yes. :)
[07:14] <thoreauputic> xoRock: entirely different purposes
[07:14] <dormedas> jordan_: i shall return soon, good luck with your little conundrum :D
[07:14] <jordan_> Anyone know how to edit the right-click menus from the desktop, I'd like to add terminal to the menu
[07:14] <bruenig> xoRock, apt-get build-dep installs all the -dev files and other files necessary to build an app from source, install installs the binary that has already been compiled and packaged
[07:15] <jordan_> thx dormedas!
[07:15] <thoreauputic> xoRock: apt-get build-dep is for getting build dependencies for compiling
[07:15] <enterneo> i just downloaded quake 3's gz.sh file
[07:15] <enterneo> but how to install it?
[07:15] <bruenig> gz.sh?
[07:15] <thoreauputic> bruenig: sorry missed your line above :)
[07:15] <fartoc> Khrajin, you have to boot or set init 3 instead of init 5 which is the graphic log in
[07:15] <enterneo> this is the file - linuxq3ademo-1.11-6.x86.gz.sh
[07:15] <Khrajin> thoreauputic does the 'build-dep' download and install all dependencies for a program?
[07:15] <xoRock> bruenig, thoreauputic, so for normal user like me is better using apt-get install, isnt it?
[07:16] <thoreauputic> Khrajin: it installs the packages needed to compile a package
[07:16] <thoreauputic> xoRock: mostly yes
[07:16] <bruenig> xoRock, they are two different things, if you want to install an application you use install, if you want to install all the dependencies necessary to compile and application from source, you use build-dep
[07:16] <Khrajin> thoreauputic ah ok
[07:16] <bruenig> an*
[07:16] <enterneo> anybody here for help?
[07:17] <xoRock> bruenig, thoreauputic thx buddy
[07:17] <jordan_> I am enterneo
[07:17] <fartoc> just type at a command prompt init 3 to try it; to make it perminate you have to edit your init script
[07:17] <Lunis> enterneo, i am >.>
[07:17] <thoreauputic> xoRock: no worries :)
[07:17] <enterneo> i just downloaded linuxq3ademo-1.11-6.x86.gz.sh , how to install ?
[07:17] <Lunis> enterneo, not getting a whole lot, however
[07:17] <jordan_> Oh... lol sorry I had that question backwards... hehe I'm seeking help
[07:17] <freeagy> i have a card reader . putt an SD card in ,  create a folder and copy 2 avis, 300 and 600 MB. when  i putt the card my pda (Fujitsu-siemens N560) the folder dos not see. putt it back the reader and does not see the created folder :( .      other copyed files are ok , just the ubuntu created map dos not. and sorry my eanglish is poor.
[07:17] <bruenig> Khrajin, figure out how ubuntu handles loading daemons, if you just make sure you don't run the gdm daemon during boot you are fine
[07:17] <thoreauputic> fartoc: init 3 won't do anything in Ubuntu, by default
[07:17] <enterneo> heh
[07:17] <dfgas_> what would be a better buy, pentium D 805 dual core 2.66ghz or a amd athlon 64 3600+ 2.0ghz dual core
[07:18] <thoreauputic> fartoc: or rather, won't stop X

[07:20] <yukonho> Hello, I think I killed the audio on my Thinkpad T40 today --- I was fiddling around with libdvdcss and xine and think I must have undone something. It worked fine before
[07:20] <blargman> run system restore
[07:21] <cafuego> It's wrecked, just give it to me and buy yourself a new one.
[07:21] <jsestri2> Is there a way to see what modules are available for the xserver? I get the error that the driver wasn't found no matter how I try to start the xserver...
[07:22] <intelikey> ok can someone tell me how to share the (dialup) connection with the LAN ?
[07:22] <boricua_tech> warp4_work, I don't know what is it
[07:22] <thoreauputic> intelikey: the easiest way is with firestarter
[07:22] <thoreauputic> intelikey: one click
[07:22] <boricua_tech> I tried to connect using the live CD and it didn't connect
[07:22] <Warp4_work> boricua_tech, what is what?
[07:22] <intelikey> thoreauputic CLI way ?
[07:22] <varun0> jsestri2: what is the exact message? can you pastebin it?
[07:23] <boricua_tech> the problem with connectivity
[07:23] <boricua_tech> I can connect to the router wirelessly but not to the web
[07:23] <jsestri2> varun0: It would be difficult to pastebin since there is no way to copy it...I'll try and capture the jist though
[07:23] <intelikey> thoreauputic i'll note the answer you already gave,  but i need to kinda know what it's doing too

[07:25] <BlueKnight> do them all seperate?
[07:26] <blargman> speme: i would perhaps but i'd rather use something open source
[07:26] <Slart> BlueKnight: I think gcc is included in build-essential
[07:26] <varun0> jsestri2: if you want to all the modules available, you can do a modprobe -l (I think)
[07:26] <intelikey> thoreauputic thank you.
[07:26] <BlueKnight> sudo apt-get install linux-headers/then again with build-essentials/and gcc?

[07:29] <SoulPropagation> varun0: From a terminal?
[07:29] <boricua_tech> warp4_work, thanks for the help anyway. I'm tired. Gonna deal with this tomorrow (maybe). If I cannot make it work, I'll uninstall Ubuntu and buy a Mac in the future.

[07:32] <rsai> Can some one let me know about desktop manager, window manager difference / hierarchy.. I am seeing many buzz words like gnome, kde, xgl, xorg, enlightenment, metacity, compiz, beryl... :(.. completely lost.. any good links that talk about their hierarchy ?
[07:32] <SoulPropagation> I'm hunting down a shell script to throw em up
[07:32] <dormedas> jordan1: i dont hope to finish it tonight, maybe tomorrow i could have some more patience with this. although I'll continue with this til you're fresh out of ideas :P
[07:32] <bruenig> rsai, hierarchy?
[07:32] <defrysk> rsai, try google ;)
[07:33] <varun0> jsestri2: can you do a modprobe -l | grep nvidia?
[07:33] <rsai> googled alot.. nothing talks about all of them and their relation ship ...
[07:33] <DShepherd> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_manager -- rsai
[07:33] <bruenig> rsai, I will go through the list, gnome is a desktop environment, kde is a desktop environment, xgl is a hack of xorg that allows it to run gl stuff mainly good for ati cards, xorg is the x server it is the graphical server that controls everything from screen res to mouse, enlightenment is a window manager, metacity is a window manager and is part of the gnome desktop environment, compiz is a window manager
[07:34] <jordan1> dormedas, I can't think of anything, there may be some options in the boot options, but I'm not that familiar with those
[07:34] <BlueKnight> there are 12 linux-headers to chose from, how do i know which one to chose for the install?

[07:34] <Lunis> has anyone heard of installing ubuntu through vmware to a disk, then booting from that disk over usb?
[07:35] <NemesisD> how long should i wait in the alternate installer at "preparing to configure hdparm" before I can definitively say it has frozen and start over?
[07:35] <dormedas> jordan1: well, nomasteryoda was working with me, but of course he's somehow AFK
[07:35] <jsestri2> Lunis: no, but sounds reasonable
[07:35] <BlueKnight> "2.6.20-16-generic" bruenig
[07:35] <bruenig> BlueKnight, that's the one
[07:35] <jordan1> Sorry about that dormedas... I wish I was more experienced with it as well... I
[07:35] <BlueKnight> bruenig - dl generic and the updated version? nod, danky
[07:35] <Lunis> jsestri2, i tried, i'm getting a stupid error though, all went well, but when i try to boot the usb disk, i get "Error Loading Operating System"
[07:36] <jordan1> I've only used ubuntu for a month or so... but been running a few others for about 2 years now
[07:36] <bruenig> !info linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic

[07:36] <bruenig> install that
[07:36] <dormedas> jordan1: no biggie, im fine
[07:36] <rsai> Thank you bruenig,every one. I will build upon that.. so the list got reduced to desktop environment, x server and window manager .. i might get good hits in google now.. Thanks again
[07:36] <jsestri2> Lunis, pre or post grub?
[07:36] <dormedas> jordan1: which others?
[07:36] <varun0> jsestri2: I'll be honest, I'm not too sure. I think this is frowned upon by most, but try running the script off the nvidia site. I had problems with the nvidia drivers before, and installing them via the script helped. YMMV, though
[07:36] <BlueKnight> thx bruenig
[07:36] <jordan1> dormedas, have you tried other live cd's? knoppix or pclinuxos? just to see if they work?
[07:36] <Lunis> jsestri2, pre
[07:36] <bruenig> rsai, x server is the underlying thing below all of that, if you don't have x server you can't use any of that stuff
[07:36] <jsestri2> varun0, lol, well if it makes it work I dont really give 2 shits
[07:37] <JusticeZer1> Hey, i'm having trouble with GRUB. I got a big new hard drive and put it in, then installed Ubuntu on it (it will replace the tiny drive I was using for Ubuntu), but now i'm having shutdowns which I believe is caused by overheating from insufficient power. I will be replacing the case in a month or so, but I want to get rid of the old small drive. Doing so makes Grub go ballistic and give me error 21.
[07:37] <jordan1> dormedas, fedora and suse, but starting to like ubuntu more than those
[07:37] <noldon> anyone know how to get fullscreen mode in vlc
[07:37] <jsestri2> Lunis, I would expect the format got messed up some how...is your disk abstracted at all?
[07:37] <varun0> jsestri2: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[07:37] <bruenig> noldon, double click on the screen?
[07:37] <dormedas> jordan1: I have SuSE on this computer, but for some reason it cant connect to the internet and its an old version. thats why im switching to ubuntu
[07:37] <noldon> bruenig i know but it dosnt go to fullscreen it just fill my desktop
[07:37] <menisk> I am having some trouble editing my Network Manager applet and Gnome Power Manager icons, I have edited all the different sized icons for GPM but it is still exactly the same as before, and I have edited the NM-Applet icons with the same result, what am I doing wrong?
[07:38] <varun0> jsestri2: all I can think of is the module got renamed or moved........and xorg is looking for the wrong one. But I don't know for sure, and wouldn't want to send you down the wrong path
[07:38] <jordan1> Wish I could help more, granted I wonder if it would be better without the win on it... hehe
[07:38] <dormedas> jordan1: amen
[07:38] <bruenig> noldon, that is full screen or am I missing something?
[07:38] <BlueKnight> running this command - I get a cannot write to rt61_linux_sta..." (Permission denied)... any clues?
[07:38] <Lunis> jsestri2, abstracted? i'll assume since i'm not sure what you mean that it's not. I gave the vmachine full physical write to the hard drive, and let the installer partition/format completely. it boots in vmware but outside of that is a problem. i suspect the bootloader didn't get installed correctly, thanks to vmware, but i don't know how to fix it. the whole problem is that i dont have a working cd drive :)
[07:38] <BlueKnight> wget http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/RT61_Linux_STA_Drv1.1.0.0.tar.gz
[07:38] <BlueKnight> bad link?
[07:38] <bruenig> BlueKnight, do pwd and paste the output
[07:39] <BlueKnight> pwd?
[07:39] <dormedas> jordan1: im just confused as to why X server doesnt run w/ ubuntu yet SuSE runs fine
[07:39] <menisk> BlueKnight, You having trouble with an RT61 card?
[07:39] <noldon> bruenig i mean i see the menus and the border arount the vlc window
[07:39] <bruenig> yes that command
[07:39] <dormedas> jordan1: perhaps KDE vs GNOME?
[07:39] <jordan1> dormedas, upset the wife when my AV subscriptions ran out and I dumped all win boxes... hehe
[07:39] <bruenig> noldon, oh, that is not normal
[07:39] <varun0> BlueKnight: PrintWorkingDirectory == pwd
[07:39] <jordan1> dormedas, dunno
[07:39] <noldon> i know
[07:39] <BlueKnight> o, in /etc atm :)
[07:39] <dormedas> jordan1: lol good idea. Im trying to switch my family from winblows
[07:39] <noldon> i been looking everywere in the settings but cant find anything
[07:40] <varun0> BlueKnight: do you have write permissions?
[07:40] <bruenig> BlueKnight, get into your home directory where you have write privileges

[07:40] <BlueKnight> meniks, sorta.. trying to install some drivers
[07:40] <menisk> BlueKnight, You are better off ditching the native drivers, they are horrible, I have spent hours trying to make them work, ndiswrapper work perfectly
[07:40] <BlueKnight> wiz k and k
[07:40] <jose__> Could anyone here help me get mencoder to automatically determine aspect ratios?
[07:40] <JusticeZer1> Anyone know how to remove hard drives without upsetting Grub?
[07:40] <BlueKnight> word menisk? do inform...
[07:40] <BlueKnight> atm I'm following a help on the community docmentation
[07:40] <bruenig> JusticeZer1, just reconfigure grub as you change hard drives
[07:41] <jsestri2> varun0: is there a way to force gdm to not start, and the computer to boot to the terminal instead...right now when things break I get no responsiveness
[07:41] <dormedas> jordan1: it wont make a difference soon, because today i ordered an NVIDIA GeForce FX5500 from newegg, so wednesday i'll have a new GFX card and we can determine if it was that
[07:41] <jsestri2> varun0: and you're supposed to have run level 3 to run the nvidia scrit...
[07:41] <Lunis> JusticeZer1, you will need to set your neww hdd as primary master, then rinstall grub by running 'grub' from the command line, look at google for instructions setting up correctly
[07:41] <JusticeZer1> ...Where do I go to do that? If I remove the drives, it freezes up on boot with an 'error 21'.
[07:41] <menisk> I have 2 computer that used the RT61 chipset, it work fine with edgy but dies in fiesty, so I used their native windows driver through ndiswrapper and it works wonderfully with full network manager support. Need a hand setting ndiswrapper up?
[07:41] <varun0> jsestri2: yea. you could try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:41] <bruenig> JusticeZer1, /etc/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <Montaro> fx5500? they'd be only worth about $10 these days eh?
[07:42] <bruenig> JusticeZer1, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <varun0> jsestri2: I can't remember how to boot into init 3 by default. wow I feel like a n00b
[07:42] <BlueKnight> yes please menisk :D
[07:42] <menisk> BlueKnight, Open up a terminal
[07:42] <bruenig> varun0, there is no such thing as init 3 in ubuntu or debian
[07:42] <BlueKnight> move to pm to avoid spam/clutter?
[07:42] <Lunis> JusticeZer1, that's backwards, install grub to big hdd, configure new grub, remove little hdd
[07:42] <NemesisD> should the swap partition be at the beginning or end of a disk?
[07:42] <dormedas> Montaro: yeah, in 3 or so months ill be grabbing a near top of the line computer so...
[07:42] <BlueKnight> got it open menisk
[07:42] <varun0> bruenig: oh really?
[07:42] <sauvin> Ubuntu installs itself in just! enough time for me to chuck my dinner into the microwave oven.
[07:42] <jsestri2> varun0: if I dont start in recovery mode, I dont get a terminal
[07:42] <noldon> and mplayer dont wanna play dvds
[07:42] <bruenig> varun0, yes, kind of stupid but yes
[07:42] <Montaro> dormedas: ah so i guess it doesnt matter about the gfx card then heh
[07:42] <jordan1> dormedas, hehe wish I had $$$ for upgrades...
[07:43] <JusticeZer1> I honestly don't know where grub is.
[07:43] <menisk> BlueKnight, sudo rmmod ndiswrapper
[07:43] <bruenig> !dvd | noldon
[07:43] <sauvin> noldon, mplayer plays dvds, but you have to install some codecs.
[07:43] <varun0> jsestri2: what if you just ctrl+alt+f1, and then /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:43] <Lunis> JusticeZer1, hold on i'll look for a howto type thing
[07:43] <ubotu> noldon: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[07:43] <varun0> bruenig: hm. I guess I always figured that was part of the kernel.
[07:43] <noldon> how can i find out wish codecs im missing
[07:43] <jsestri2> varun0: all of the virtual terms just show a blinking cursor, no prompt
[07:43] <dormedas> Montaro: building it meself, intel dual cores, SLI mobo, 250 GB SATA, Nvidia 7600 512 MB ram
[07:43] <BlueKnight> menisk, what directory do i need to be in to run that? got an error
[07:43] <menisk> BlueKnight, What was ther error?
[07:43] <BlueKnight> module ndiswrapper does not exist in /proc/modules" ?
[07:43] <varun0> jsestri2: hm.
[07:44] <dormedas> Montaro: 2 GB RAM and a sick looking case w/ 500W PSU, its gonna be nice :D
[07:44] <JusticeZer1> Thank you. It's just being twitchy and incomprehensible.
[07:44] <menisk> BlueKnight, that is fine, means it wasn't there to remove
[07:44] <BlueKnight> :O - o... *blush*
[07:44] <jsestri2> varun0: would the hack of moving /etc/gdm elsewhere work?

[07:45] <dormedas> Lunis: apparently
[07:45] <varun0> jsestri2: haha.........I guess you could rename it. I can't think of any problems with that off the top of my head
[07:45] <BlueKnight> mono != fun

[07:51] <Megaqwerty> xen: unless you're cracking with permission

[08:03] <xen> I can only help with basic things though...like build-essential :P
[08:03] <jombee> I have a lamp server installed.... now what do I do?
[08:03] <skollie> xen: so ask for the help you need
[08:03] <jombee> nothing specific, just point me in the right direction
[08:03] <xen> eh... I don't really need help
[08:03] <jombee> I think xen is beyond any help we could offer
[08:04] <xen> thanks
[08:04] <skollie> xen: any little bit of advice you can offer can help someone else
[08:04] <TaJMoX> linux apache mysql php ?
[08:04] <xen> I know
[08:04] <TaJMoX> what do next?   PORN SITE!
[08:04] <jombee> tajmox: yes
[08:04] <dormedas|gone> lol
[08:04] <jombee> well i have a site, but I'm not really sure what I need to do
[08:04] <fartoc> Ayabara, if you google for ash prompts in google you can find out how but your prompt is gonna go to two lines quite often when you type in commands
[08:04] <dormedas> put an image hosting thing on there?
[08:04] <TaJMoX> i can promote your site if u have affiliate program =] 
[08:05] <xen> I was just probing to see what others have used shells for
[08:05] <jombee> TaJ, thanks for the offer, but it's still in development,
[08:05] <skollie> jombee: why did you set up a LAMP server in the first place?
[08:05] <fartoc> Ayabara, will the command pwd work for you? print working directory path
[08:05] <jombee> because I have a site up on a free hosting site, but some of the php doesn't work right
[08:05] <jombee> I want to test it out on my box then upload it to a better host
[08:05] <luminerd> Is Ubuntu very well supportive of a Mac Pro?

[08:06] <towlieban> luminerd, i have it running on a macbook pro
[08:06] <xen> and welcome to ubuntu chat
[08:06] <Ayabara> fartoc, pwd works. the reason I want the full path in the title bar is actually that I modified PS1 to make the prompt shorter :-)
[08:06] <skollie> jombee: have you configured your server yet or is it just installed?
[08:06] <xen> I'll be you waiter for this evening
[08:06] <jombee> skollie: clean install
[08:06] <xen> what would you like?
[08:06] <jombee> skollie: in a vm
[08:07] <luminerd> Does anyone know specifically about the Mac Pro? I put Ubuntu on my PC once, and it ran, but I ran into constant issues that no one else seemed to have.
[08:07] <xen> I'm a waiter server
[08:07] <skollie> jombee: well, then you have to configure it to do what you want to do
[08:07] <KMoth> My hosting is PHP4, MySQL, Linux, Apache...
[08:07] <xen> and right now I'm waiting on  your request
[08:08] <jombee> skollie: that's why I'm here, I don't want a direct do this, do that. I'd rather a check out this website
[08:08] <xen> would you like apache or php with that sir?
[08:08] <fartoc> Ayabara, ahh you want the path to be in your xterm or gnone-term title bar.
[08:08] <Ayabara> fartoc, yep :-)
[08:09] <barado> Aye
[08:09] <fartoc> I donno how but I m sure it can be done :=)
[08:09] <skollie> jombee: what distro are you running?
[08:09] <jombee> ubuntu server ed
[08:09] <jombee> 7.04
[08:10] <jombee> but I'm not too tied to it
[08:10] <xen> I love you all so much you don't even understand it
[08:10] <jombee> as long as it's not fedora, I'm pretty comfortable with any distro
[08:11] <xen> because this is my community!
[08:11] <luminerd> None with Ubuntu on Mac Pro tonight then?
[08:11] <sauvin> I like Fedora a lot, but I'm finding that Ubuntu is a whole [CENSORED]  faster.
[08:12] <xen> I'm like sitting on an african plain surrounded by flowers of all different colors and insects flying about pollinating while humming little tunes in the ears of passerbyers
[08:12] <jombee> fedora stopped being fun at core 3
[08:12] <Newbie_Dude> How do I take a screenshot? >_> I can't find it in the Ubuntu Wiki...
[08:12] <jombee> I don't know why, but I don't like it
[08:12] <xen> while playing drums made from the hides of elephants
[08:12] <skollie> jombee: if your install is complete and functional, you need to set up your pages, databases, php stuff etc
[08:12] <xen> and stuff
[08:12] <Caplain> anyone have issues with qmail-pop3d?

[08:13] <skollie> jombee: I actually run a Fedora 4 server. Also have Feisty server installed on the same machine, but not configured yet
[08:13] <jombee> skollie: so I can just ftp my current setup over to the vm
[08:13] <xen> as always I'm the only one to provide entertainment

[08:13] <skollie> jombee: not sure. What is your current setup?
[08:14] <xen> did you just try and say you're crazy about me blueknight?
[08:14] <xen> well thank you
[08:14] <Newbie_Dude> How do I take a screenshot, I can't find it in the Ubuntu Wiki... Trying to send my friend a screenshot of my Ubuntu desktop.

[08:15] <YANP> Hi, I am new to Ubuntu.  I actually just installed it after my Vista crashed after having it for only 7 days on my new computer and Hewlett Packard did little to nothing to help me.  I have a question though:  How can I make the resolution bigger than 800x600?
[08:16] <BlueKnight> tixer ask menisk in a few
[08:16] <Tixer> who's menisk?
[08:16] <jombee> Yanp: settings menu > preferences > screen resolution
[08:16] <xen> the only thing I can help people with is surviving the coming ufo onslaught
[08:16] <KMoth> The simplest of tasks to a Windows-borne user become the most challenging on tasks...
[08:16] <BlueKnight> click the name
[08:17] <natsumey_> aku gay
[08:17] <Tixer> who's menisk?
[08:17] <YANP> The highest screen resolution is 800x600 I need it to be at least 1024 x whatever.
[08:17] <xen> meniskus?
[08:17] <menisk> Tixer, Hmm?
[08:18] <skollie> Tixer: I would recommend lugging that monitor downstairs  ;) - can't see how you can do what you need to do otherwise
[08:18] <Tixer> I was told that you could help with this:

[08:18] <sauvin> Hrm. Speaking of screen resolution, how do I get ubuntu to show what the current resolution is?
[08:18] <YANP> No..I just installed Ubuntu like 5 seconds ago.
[08:18] <bayu> help me in http://bkurniawan.pastebin.com/m3b554867
[08:19] <YANP> First time using Linux ever...
[08:19] <YANP> I was told I could get 'abit' but google just shows motherboards for that.
[08:20] <KMoth> You can still rip to Ogg Vorbis, though, right?
[08:20] <KMoth> And you have Python?
[08:20] <skollie> bayu: I have a problem loading your pastebin
[08:22] <barado> I've been having a hard time making my ntfs drive mountable, its a portable USB device if that makes any difference
[08:22] <YANP> So..any simple way to make resolution 1024 x whatever?  Is there such a thing called 'abit' that I can download to fix it?
[08:23] <JusticeZero> Welllll. That didn't work. *running on boot CD*
[08:23] <BlueKnight> barado, plug it in, wait a few and then check your filesystem/mnt/ and see if its listed in there
[08:23] <KMoth> ABIT is referring to your mobo's onboard video drivers?
[08:23] <BlueKnight> if it is, right click and mount it barado
[08:24] <skollie> YANP: have you tried the System Settings-->Display route?
[08:24] <KMoth> YANP: I assume if you download the ABIT motherboard video drivers for Linux, they will give you an interface by which you will easily be able to change the resolution... :\
[08:24] <JusticeZero> I tried grub-install but I have to use the boot disk to get to anything, and then I have no write permissions.
[08:24] <Flannel> JusticeZero: what does booting to your HD result in?
[08:24] <PirateHead> Does anybody know whether Logitech wireless mice are supported by default in Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:24] <JusticeZero> It just sits there.
[08:25] <JusticeZero> It doesn't whir or anything.
[08:25] <jordan1> Pirate: No problem with mine
[08:25] <bayu> help me in http://pastebin.com/d5dfdca4d
[08:25] <Flannel> JusticeZero: what does the screen look like?
[08:25] <YANP> KMoth: I have not a single clue of what I am doing.
[08:25] <KMoth>  actually run a Fedora 4 server. Also have Feisty server installed on the same machine, but not configured yet
 skollie: so I can just ftp my current setup
[08:25] <luminerd> None with Ubuntu on Mac Pro tonight then?

 skollie: so I can just ftp my current setup
[08:26] <JusticeZero> Well, normally I get the prompt that says it's trying to boot the CDrom, then a line or two under that the cursor sits there.
[08:26] <YANP> First time ever using ubuntu/linux in my life.  I only switched to it because vista crashed 7 days after I bought this computer and I have no xp cd.
[08:26] <Flannel> bayu: what are you trying to do?
[08:26] <PirateHead> jordan1: did you need to hack anything together to get it to work? What model do you have? Sorry to pick your brain - just worrying about comptibility. :-)
[08:26] <Flannel> JusticeZero: you're trying to boot to the CD?  or to an installed system?
[08:26] <barado> OK blueknight I've got that far, now I just want to be able to write to it
[08:26] <bayu> i'm compile pkg-config
[08:26] <JusticeZero> If I boot from the CD and tell it to 'boot from first hard driv' I get 'Booting from hard drive:' and a cursor sitting there.
[08:26] <Flannel> PirateHead: you might need to do some tweaking to get the fancy extra buttons tow ork
[08:27] <Flannel> JusticeZero: You've already installed Ubuntu?
[08:27] <jordan1> Just plugged it in and it worked, not sure of model, one of the small grey ones, three button w/ wheel...
[08:27] <JusticeZero> I want to boot to the Ubuntu install on what is now HDA.
[08:27] <Flannel> JusticeZero: Ah, you swapped harddrives around?
[08:27] <JusticeZero> Yeah, been using that drive for days - but it's been freezing cold that whole time, and now that I don't need to wear a coat in my room i'm having shutdowns.
[08:27] <Flannel> bayu: why are you trying to do that?
[08:28] <JusticeZero> The power supply is inadequate; 300 watt. I was warned it might not be enough.
[08:29] <JusticeZero> Yes, it was originally HDD, secondary slave. 2nd master is the cdrom, 1st pri WinXP, 1st slave small Ubuntu boot.
[08:29] <barado> What do the locks on all my files that just started showing up mean?
[08:29] <Flannel> JusticeZero: well, the CD thing sounds like a bad burn.  If you swapped HDDs around, you're possibly going to need to reinstall GRUB, from a liveCD
[08:29] <bayu> i'm running make check
[08:29] <JusticeZero> I'm running on the CD now.
[08:29] <Flannel> JusticeZero: Oh.  Sorry, I thought you were having problems booting the CD.  Follow the first link here:

[08:29] <JusticeZero> But grub-install claims not to have write permissions on hda.
[08:30] <bullgard4> Why do there exist in Ubuntu the two directories /dev/evms/ and /dev/mapper with apparently the same content?
[08:30] <Billy> I am trying to install libcrypto and can not figure it out..   can some one please help me...
[08:31] <Flannel> bayu: but why?  pkg-config is in the repositories, you shouldn't be building it.
[08:31] <bayu> how can i building pkg-config
[08:32] <Sanctusorium> Hello.
[08:32] <noldon> i have installed all the libdvdcss and libdvdread i can find but i cant make it to work
[08:32] <JusticeZero> ok, looking. though this is more the reverse 'recovering GRUB after removing hard drives (including Windows). :?
[08:32] <sauvin> Bayu, as much as possible, I've been avoiding building things. Use existing packages whenever you can; it helps VASTLY in preventing conflicts that can be the very devil to track down.
[08:32] <Flannel> JusticeZero: you want the "and overwriting the windows bootloader" section(s), not preserving
[08:33] <sauvin> noldon, did you go into the libdvdread directory and run install-css.sh?
[08:33] <noldon> no

[08:41] <Sanctusorium> C++ is probably the most portable language I know

[08:41] <luminerd> None with Ubuntu on Mac Pro tonight then?
[08:41] <sauvin> c++ isn't all that damn portable :\
[08:41] <Madsy> Writing "C/C++" is wrong. C++ and C are very different in a lot of aspects.
[08:41] <minskmaz> I have a minor problems with SSL certs hoping someone can help - I have two certs that conflict with one another, depending on which is declared first. Both work fine on their own... nobody is answering at apache tonight  - help! :-)
[08:41] <SlickMcRunfast> sorry Madsy
[08:41] <KMoth> Pickeh, pickeh.
[08:41] <JusticeZero> Wow, they closed that helpful tip. =( The installer won't let me continue to where I need to be unless it lets me format /.
[08:41] <SlickMcRunfast> C and C++
[08:42] <topshotta> anybody know about beryl/compiz fusion?
[08:42] <SlickMcRunfast> so back to the APIs?
[08:42] <Flannel> SlickMcRunfast: anjuita, eclipse, there are a few others too, I believe
[08:42] <nol13> where do babies come from?
[08:42] <sauvin> topshotta, when I see people asking that question, I often see them being answered with "go to #ubuntu-effects", I think is the channel.
[08:42] <Sanctusorium> Like I sauvin, that I know...  I barely know C++ and I have a small grasp on java/
[08:42] <Madsy> C++ is portable across architectures, but code output can behave differently from compiler to compiler.
[08:43] <preaction> minskmaz, maybe because you're only supposed to have one SSL cert per virtual host? you're also supposed to only have one ssl cert per IP address

[08:44] <noldon> hamadooo with what
[08:44] <Flannel> JusticeZero: Right, but you don't need to run the installer to reinstall GRUB

[08:47] <noldon> hamadooo no i cant

[08:48] <ubotu> noldon: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:48] <xtknight> dissection, but sometimes if you eject it, the system receives the signal and unmounts anyway
[08:49] <nol13> noldon, dont hate, and that was most rude i must say

[08:49] <dissection> xtknight: Okay.. cause when I pressed the eject button, a small KDE tray window showed up. I thought that was odd cause I'm using GNOME.

[08:57] <nol13> noldon, SPQR!
[08:57] <noldon> soon i give up and reboot to windows
[08:57] <noldon> then i can at least watch this movie
[08:58] <rorro> hi
[08:58] <xtknight> noldon, i dont know.  rebooting made dvds work for me once.  other than that, google , ubuntuforums and that's all i can suggest
[08:58] <xtknight> !hi
[08:58] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:58] <nol13> noldon, but they'll KNOW that your watching it, do you feel lucky?
[08:59] <noldon> i been googleing for 10 hours now
[08:59] <noldon> nol13 plz shut up
[09:00] <SoulPropagation> xtknight: http://sh.nu/p/
[09:00] <nol13> noldon, there is no reason to harrasss me

[09:01] <xtknight> SoulPropagation, ahh figures some good soul has made an easy way to do it.  good to know
[09:01] <JusticeZero> ok, I followed the instructions, but it shows three hard drives.
[09:01] <noldon> whatever
[09:02] <nol13> noldon, is your graphics card running?
[09:02] <SoulPropagation> how do I tell ubotu a definition
[09:02] <xtknight> !ubotu
[09:02] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:02] <bullgard4> English help wanted: Gnome main menu System > Administration has 17 submenu items. One of them starts with 'System'. Is it 'System check', 'System surveillance' or what?
[09:02] <xtknight> bullgard4, there is System Log and System Monitor
[09:03] <SoulPropagation> /m ubotu paste
[09:03] <YANP> Question:  How do I find out how much disk space I have left on my computer through Ubuntu Linux?
[09:03] <bulmer> df -h
[09:03] <xtknight> YANP, type "df -h" in the terminal
[09:03] <JusticeZero> I show system log, then system monitor on my cd install
[09:03] <xtknight> YANP, for more detailed analyses, use Baobab the disk usage analyzer
[09:03] <xtknight> bullgard4, System Monitor shows running processes, executables and memory usage.  System Log shows kernel debug messages and errors.
[09:04] <YANP> ok thanks =] 
[09:04] <bullgard4> xtknight: Does System Log have four tabs?
[09:04] <xtknight> bullgard4, no that is System Monitor
[09:04] <bullgard4> xtknight: Thank you very much.
[09:04] <xtknight> system log->few panes.  system monitor->four tabs
[09:05] <SoulPropagation> There, updated to have the sh.nu/p thing in there =D
[09:05] <bliss> My ISP does not provide a static IP where can I get one or should i get a dynamic DNS?
[09:05] <YANP> Where is Baoba the disk usage analyzer?
[09:05] <xtknight> YANP, applications->accessories->disk usage analyzer
[09:06] <JusticeZero> hrm. ok, let's see if this goes.
[09:06] <bliss> I want to set up potfix MTA thats why i need a static IP
[09:06] <YANP> Oh ok thanks =] 
[09:07] <MajorPayne> bliss: Your ISP most likely blocks port 25.
[09:07] <xtknight> bliss, some isps offer static ips for higher prices.  otherwise, use dynamic dns probably available on your router or just use it as-is on the web
[09:07] <SoulPropagation> Now then, onto my problem! I just installed the nVidia drivers, and now I have a blank screen instead of a GUI. I can get to the Alt+F1 et al terminals just fine.
[09:07] <xtknight> SoulPropagation, you only have one monitor, right?
[09:08] <LinuxProbie> Hey, my wireless card randomly stopped working. it doesn't even show in the configuration manager. can someone lend a hand?
[09:08] <MajorPayne> bliss: If you use dynamic DNS you most likely will not get reverse DNS from your ISP.  You will have a very difficult time setting up postfix.
[09:08] <BlueKnight> man, a lot of wireless probs tonight :S
[09:08] <xubuntunoob> hello.  is there anyone who could help me install xubuntu from a live cd on my old dell laptop?
[09:09] <BlueKnight> xubuntun00b the auto installer doesn't work?

[09:10] <Scout> Almighty_Henaro: What was wrong with xgl? I am considering getting it.
[09:10] <Frogzoo> ./ignore Almighty_Henaro
[09:10] <xubuntunoob> can't do that, bios won't let me; can i use another method?
[09:10] <xtknight> Almighty_Henaro, try "sudo dpkg-configure -phigh gdm"
[09:10] <Almighty_Henaro> Scout, Ibroke it and I need to get rid of it and try again
[09:10] <KMoth> BAD MEANING
[09:10] <KMoth> BAD MEANING
[09:10] <KMoth> DONT STOP
[09:11] <xtknight> try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh gdm"
[09:11] <Almighty_Henaro> Okay I will
[09:11] <Master_Medic> hey
[09:11] <nomin> xubuntunoob: try #xubuntu as well
[09:11] <Master_Medic> is there a version of ubuntu with the 2.6.22 kernel?
[09:11] <xtknight> !gutsy | Master_Medic s
[09:11] <ubotu> Master_Medic s: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[09:11] <xubuntunoob> i did... nobody talking over there right now, still have the channel open
[09:11] <nomin> xubuntunoob: you need to tell bios to let you boot from a cd.  Some people diable it for security purposes.
[09:12] <Master_Medic> can we download gutsy now?
[09:12] <hamadooo> need hellp with john ripper
[09:12] <LinuxProbie> The wireless light on mine isn't even on...can someone help?
[09:12] <xtknight> Master_Medic, it is in alpha, Tribe 3 currently
[09:12] <xubuntunoob> MajorPayne: ok, i try...
[09:12] <xtknight> Linux_Junkie, type "sudo lshw -class network" and post to pastebin please
[09:12] <Scout> What is the difference between xgl, aiglx, beryl, and compiz?
[09:12] <hamadooo> how to add a passwd file in john ripper ???????
[09:12] <BlueKnight> gibbon out already?
[09:13] <xtknight> not yet
[09:13] <nomin> xubuntunoob: sometimes you have to be patient in these chatrooms.  Sometimes there is a lot of chat going on and sometimes there is no activity for a while.  There are better times throughout a day to get help from more people.
[09:14] <YANP> I need help setting up WINE.

[09:14] <ubotu> YANP: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:14] <linkstack> Hey , is rpm in Ubuntu Hiweed linux 1.0?
[09:14] <xubuntunoob> nomin: i know, been trying to get this done for five hours, one prob after another
[09:15] <xtknight> LinuxProbie,  , type "sudo lshw -class network" and post to pastebin please
[09:15] <xubuntunoob> MajorPayne: it looks like that page you sent me to requires that the machine be connected to internet, and that one isn't
[09:15] <LinuxProbie> pastebin?
[09:15] <Almighty_Henaro> Okay that I think that made it worst
[09:15] <sauvin> !@#$@#% Can ubuntu install an rpm?
[09:15] <xtknight> !pastebin | LinuxProbie
[09:15] <ubotu> LinuxProbie: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:15] <xtknight> !rpm | sauvin
[09:15] <ubotu> sauvin: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[09:15] <Scout> Can anyone query me the difference between xgl, aiglx, beryl, and compiz?
[09:15] <Almighty_Henaro> My screen blacked out then white lines apeared
[09:16] <sauvin> So the only alternative would be to use a .tar.gz.
[09:16] <Almighty_Henaro> And now I'm back to square one
[09:16] <xtknight> Scout, XGL is a X server based on OpenGL.  AIGLX is another X server based on OpenGL (that works differently).  Beryl is a compositing manager that runs on a GL X server.  compiz is another, the first, compositing manager
[09:16] <nomin> xubuntunoob: did you try this one?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingXubuntu
[09:16] <xtknight> sauvin, yes
[09:16] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: He can't boot from the CD.
[09:16] <Almighty_Henaro> Can anyone help me get rid of xgl?
[09:16] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: All you need is a floppy drive.
[09:16] <Scout> xtknight: Thanks.
[09:17] <Master_Medic> does ubuntu support my wireless card? it is the intel 4965ABGN

[09:17] <ubotu> Master_Medic: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:17] <BlueKnight> nice majorpayne
[09:17] <xtknight> Master_Medic, yes at least a little
[09:17] <nomin> xubuntunoob: hmm...I just noticed that howto is for older versions.
[09:17] <xtknight> Master_Medic, i think unofficial support, official should be coming  http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=4965AGN+linux&btnG=Search
[09:18] <nomin> xubuntunoob: did you tell bios to let you boot from a cd yet?
[09:18] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, the wireless used to work?
[09:18] <MajorPayne> nomin: His bios doesn't support it.  That's why I gave him a link to the wiki article telling how to do it without booting from the CD.
[09:18] <nomin> ok
[09:19] <potlot> I've got a chunk of wav file that I'm gonna lame ... can lame cut it at once?
[09:19] <potlot> what is the lame command?
[09:19] <JusticeZero> OK, I got Grub to come up, but it still thinks it has 3 hard drives, none of which correlate to the one it has.
[09:19] <potlot> like from 0:00 to 4:21
[09:19] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, Yus, I think you're actually the one that got it working for me ages ago. I was trying to connect to a different wireless network, and finally gave up. When I got home it simply wasn't there anymore.
[09:19] <potlot> or I need to use another tool?
[09:19] <xubuntunoob> MajorPayne: i don't get it, that whole cds not goint to fit on a floppy?
[09:19] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, lol well that's enlightening
[09:20] <KMoth> How do you read pastes?
[09:20] <magic_ninja> is there an emulator tool for the cmd.exe prompt of winxp?
[09:20] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, hmm well did you try going thru instructions again?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092
[09:20] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: The cd doesn't go on the floppy.
[09:20] <xtknight> magic_ninja, uh dosbox?
[09:20] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, everything is there.
[09:20] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: The wiki article tells you how to do it.  You boot from the floppy that then loads the cd.
[09:20] <xtknight> maybe "wine cmd.exe"?
[09:20] <magic_ninja> xtknight: dosbox won't run a win32 application
[09:20] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, it's not picking the card up.  the driver isn't loaded im not sure
[09:20] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, ndiswrapper says the driver is loaded...
[09:21] <JusticeZero> magicninja - I think I saw one somewhere on the add/remove programs list..?
[09:21] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, were you the one with the problem where ndisloader was loaded twice and it didnt work becaues of that?
[09:21] <magic_ninja> Justice: i'll take a look lol, but i never use synaptic
[09:21] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, I don't believe so.
[09:21] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, type "sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper" twice.  then type "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper"
[09:21] <xubuntunoob> but i can't boot from anything but the harddrive
[09:21] <xubuntunoob> the bios is froze up
[09:21] <JusticeZero> I'm not sure, I just remember flipping past one or two somewhere.
[09:22] <NemesisD> ok why is it that when im root and i try to run network-admin i get "you are not allowed to access the system configuration"?
[09:22] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, nothing showed after that
[09:22] <xubuntunoob> can't even move about the bios page except to escape it
[09:22] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, is "sudo lshw -class network" any different this time?
[09:23] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: Most bios are set up to boot from the floppy if there is one inserted.  I don't know why you can't change your bios settings.
[09:23] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, the wireless card doesn't say unclaimed anymore, hang on a sec...
[09:23] <xubuntunoob> MajorPayne: i don't know either, but it's froze up ... :(
[09:24] <BlueKnight> xubuntunoob you try just pegging del/f2/f12 is it?
[09:24] <BlueKnight> on bootup?
[09:24] <BlueKnight> er - its freezing going into bios?
[09:24] <LinuxProbie> anf if I click on the network configuration thing in the upper right, it's totally different and my wireless networks show now???
[09:24] <LinuxProbie> now I;m confused. I;m gonna see if it works, brb.
[09:24] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, i have my ways
[09:24] <xtknight> ;)
[09:25] <bullgard4> Using the 'Create_Launcher' dialog I created a panel applet. It works all right. What is the filename of this Launcher?
[09:25] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, were you the one that ssh'd in and futzed with it for over an hour?
[09:25] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, um nope
[09:25] <xubuntunoob> i can enter setup with f2, but when the bios comes up i caqn't navigate the page with the arrows as it says to, the only button that works is escape, and then it goes on to boot windows, the antichrist version
[09:25] <xtknight> i'd probably be that crazy one day thohg
[09:25] <metaxyy__fw> What's a version of pwd which takes a relative path and spits out its full path?
[09:25] <metaxyy__fw> There's got to be a command for that.
[09:25] <LinuxProbie> k, well brb. testing
[09:26] <magic_ninja> man this is difficult lol, this is a simple command promp win32 app made to run on winxp, but because windows uses \ instead of / its not locating the files I need it too
[09:26] <LinuxProbie> well..
[09:27] <LinuxProbie> ok.
[09:27] <LinuxProbie> It worked, i just wish I could understand the why of it...
[09:27] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, you probably have "ndiswrapper" in /etc/modules twice or something.  or maybe not the correct parameters, i dont konw..
[09:27] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, All's well now. works better than it did before in the first place.
[09:27] <jonone> metaxyy__fw, pwd -P
[09:27] <xtknight> metaxyy__fw, um how about `pwd`/rel/path
[09:28] <xtknight> metaxyy__fw, just do "echo `pwd`/relpath"  but what's the purpose anyways? ;)
[09:28] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, how do I check that?
[09:29] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, gksu gedit /etc/modules
[09:29] <dissection> I just resumed after hibernation, and the icon on mytaskbar shows that I'm not connected. Does Ubuntu's hibernation have lot of issues?
[09:29] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, i dont realy have any idea what the problem is either.  we just reloaded the driver and got lucky
[09:29] <xtknight> dissection, ya it does
[09:29] <Master_Medic> xtknight, what about gutsy
[09:29] <metaxyy__fw> xtnight: I can't get find to give me absolute paths, and I'm piping it into a script where I don't want to worry about managing relative paths
[09:29] <xtknight> as does windows's actually
[09:29] <BlueKnight> wronggggg button there
[09:29] <metaxyy__fw> xtnight: So I want to file them through a version of pwd that takes arguments first
[09:29] <Master_Medic> xtknight, does that have support for the intel 4965AGN?
[09:29] <xtknight> metaxyy__fw, well "`pwd`/rel/path" gives you an absolute
[09:30] <metaxyy__fw> My other question was gonna be, is there an argument to find that'll make it print absolute paths
[09:30] <xtknight> Master_Medic, im not sure, actually
[09:30] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, contents of modules: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30520/
[09:30] <xtknight> metaxyy__fw, probabably, look in the manual "man find"
[09:30] <Master_Medic> xtknight, i think that 2.6.22 supports it?
[09:30] <metaxyy__fw> xtknight: I have been.
[09:30] <Master_Medic> xtknight, so u dont have to recompile the kernel and all
[09:31] <jungoh> hey i'm having some issues my x server won't start it just says "x server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly". It was working fine until I just restarted.
[09:31] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, ndiswrapper isn't even in there...is that a good thing?
[09:31] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, um no idea
[09:31] <YANP> Can someone help me install Guild Wars on ubuntu?
[09:31] <xubuntunoob> any other suggestions for getting x rolling on an offline machine running win 98 currently?
[09:31] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, actually it should be, probably
[09:32] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, otherwise i doubt it's loading anyways
[09:32] <xtknight> Master_Medic, not sure..  what module does it use
[09:32] <LinuxProbie> xtknight, so when I reboot it'll break again?
[09:32] <Master_Medic> xtknight, mac-8 or something
[09:32] <Master_Medic> xtknight, iwl something..
[09:33] <Master_Medic> xtknight, mac80211, iwlwifi
[09:33] <xtknight> LinuxProbie, no you should have better luck, if it's in /etc/modules
[09:33] <JasonN> I am having monitor display issues, when I set my screen to anything other then 1280x1024 on my external monitor, it displays it draws it too big for the screen. For that resolution it just streaches it since its a wide screen monitor.
[09:33] <YANP> Can someone help me install Guild Wars?
[09:34] <metaxyy__fw> I just realized the code that makes my script care about absolute v. relative dirs is redundant anyway, but thanks xtnkight for the suggestion.
[09:34] <dissection> xtknight: Hopefully everything works much better in the next version :)
[09:34] <JasonN> 1680 x 1050 is the native

[09:34] <jungoh> hey i'm having some issues my x server won't start it just says "x server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly". It was working fine until I just restarted. Before I restarted I compiled TLS to work with TCL/TK8.5, I don't know if that'd have anything to do with it but i assume not.
[09:35] <Master_Medic> xtknight, ah, i think having mac80211 is enough
[09:35] <xtknight> Master_Medic, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3040925

[09:37] <Master_Medic> xtknight, :/
[09:37] <Flannel> dhamma: Is the host running sshd?  Do you have port forwarding?
[09:37] <nomin> xtknight: I've messed up my compter before when alcohol was involved ;)
[09:38] <KI4IKL> When I open Presentation (Open office) and I make a slide show, I do view slide show, and it freezes
[09:38] <Frogzoo> YANP: which app?
[09:39] <amaina> hello
[09:39] <MajorPayne> !hi | amaina
[09:39] <ubotu> amaina: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:39] <jungoh> I checked /var/log/Xorg log everything's normal in there
[09:40] <amaina> need help about file sharing of ubunto
[09:40] <amaina> plesase.......
[09:40] <MajorPayne> amaina: What kind of file sharing?
[09:40] <wlanfly> samba?
[09:40] <amaina> help
[09:41] <JasonN> jungoh so what happens when you type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start ?
[09:41] <JusticeZero> they are trying, but need more information, amainha.
[09:41] <MajorPayne> amaina: What kind of file sharing.  What do you want to do?
[09:41] <xubuntunoob> so, won't xubuntu somehow just install from a cd?  or save to harddrive first?  i is lost.
[09:41] <SoulPropagation> I just installed the nVidia drivers, and now I have a blank screen instead of a GUI. I can get to the Alt+F1 et al terminals just fine.
[09:42] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: Did you try booting from the floppy?
[09:42] <nomin> xubuntunoob: I think some older computers have a problem booting from the regular live cd because they have too little memory.  I think that's why some people use the alternate install cd, it has less on it and takes up less resources.
[09:42] <xubuntunoob> majorpayne: no, i don't know how
[09:43] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: Did you read that wiki article that I gave you the link for?
[09:43] <xubuntunoob> nomin: no, i don't have a burner, a friend burned the xubuntu for me
[09:43] <YANP> I have found this: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7530 but what do I do now?  Can someone please help me?  I have no clue what I am doing.  First day ever on Linux.
[09:43] <amaina> how do i set my files without the server
[09:43] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: what have you tried?
[09:43] <xubuntunoob> MajorPayne: i couldn't understand that page or the one nomin referred me to, i am complete noob
[09:43] <amaina> i mean how do i share
[09:44] <MajorPayne> amaina: What do you mean "set my files"?
[09:44] <Shaunie> hey boys/gurls
[09:44] <LinuxProbie> One last question: how do I change the password on the "default keywring"?
[09:44] <MajorPayne> amaina: What do you mean without the server?  You talking about samba?
[09:44] <Shaunie> does anyone know a nice prog that i can use for irc. im using ubuntu PC
[09:45] <gordonjcp> Shaunie: xchat
[09:45] <Shaunie> thanks
[09:45] <SoulPropagation> Shaunie: pidgin,, xchat
[09:45] <gordonjcp> Shaunie: or, if you're feeling a bit more adventurous, irssi and screen
[09:45] <jungoh> JasonN: Does the exact same thing as when i started up, screen flashes on and off a few times, then a blue error screen saying X won't start comes up. If I CTRL+F7 there's just a flashing prompt "_"
[09:45] <gordonjcp> Shaunie: which is the *proper* way to do it ;-)
[09:45] <jungoh> JasonN: Alt-F7*
[09:45] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: what problems are you having?
[09:45] <MajorPayne> Shaunie: irssi/screen is very nice, but X-Chat may be your best option if you want a GUI app.
[09:45] <KMoth> You could use my butt, that's a program.
[09:46] <Shaunie> first time user with ubuntu
[09:46] <Shaunie> so i'll take ya word for it
[09:46] <gordonjcp> Shaunie: yeah, irssi and screen is probably more for once you get a bit more used to it, and you've got a computer that you leave on all the time
[09:46] <YANP> I have found this: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7530 but what do I do now?  Can someone please help me?  I have no clue what I am doing.  First day ever on Linux.
[09:46] <gordonjcp> Shaunie: at this stage, xchat will do nicely
[09:46] <Shaunie> does anyone know where can i download irssi/screen from?
[09:46] <KI4IKL> Shaunie, if you want fancy, use xchat
[09:46] <Shaunie> lol
[09:46] <KMoth> Is there a WINE for Windows?
[09:46] <Shaunie> fine
[09:47] <Shaunie> :)
[09:47] <MajorPayne> Shaunie: Try x-chat.
[09:47] <amaina> yeah i mean my os is ubunto and my  another pc is also a ubunto
[09:47] <KI4IKL> I prefer xchat actually
[09:47] <Shaunie> ok
[09:47] <SoulPropagation> KMoth: I can run my windows apps in windows just fine
[09:47] <KI4IKL> Shaunie, sudo apt-get install xchat
[09:47] <amaina> how do i share my file to another computer what do i set
[09:47] <MajorPayne> !samba | amaina
[09:47] <ubotu> amaina: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:47] <amaina> take note that my OS is all UBUNTO no WINDOWS
[09:47] <xubuntunoob> gordonjcp: my mind is so fried now i can't really tell you all the things i tried over the last five hours.  i first couldn't get the cdrom to work at all, then now i put one in from another machine, so i thought that there was some way to install from the cd without booting live, which i can't do, or having a connection, which i caqn't do because this machine i'm on is on ethernet, and the...
[09:47] <xubuntunoob> ...other machine doesn't have ethernet
[09:47] <MajorPayne> !nfs | amaina
[09:47] <ubotu> amaina: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:48] <MajorPayne> amaina: Or you can use scp.
[09:48] <amaina> k samba is ok
[09:48] <JusticeZero> okay, so you are trying to transfer files between two Ubuntu systems, correct?
[09:48] <amaina> yes
[09:48] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: are you sure the CD works correctly?
[09:48] <xtknight> !nsf
[09:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nsf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:48] <xtknight> !nfs
[09:48] <amaina> ? scp
[09:48] <gordonjcp> amaina: Secure CoPy
[09:48] <MajorPayne> amaina: Samba is for sharing with Windows computers.
[09:48] <amaina> oh ic
[09:48] <gutsytrials> Hey, where is the gutsy chat?
[09:48] <gordonjcp> amaina: you'd need to have ssh running on one of the machines, which might be what you want anyway
[09:48] <gutsytrials> chan?
[09:48] <gutsytrials> :)
[09:48] <amaina> how about ubunto to ubunto?
[09:48] <gordonjcp> gutsytrials: #ubuntu+1
[09:49] <SoulPropagation> #ubuntu+1 gutsytrials
[09:49] <gutsytrials> thnx.
[09:49] <jungoh> is there a decent irc client i can run while i'm trying to fix X?
[09:49] <cupps> I just installed World of Warcraft in wine, alongside BC, and it will open fine and plays the starting movie, but then exits before going to the login screen. Any ideas?
[09:49] <MajorPayne> amaina: scp is the easiest to set up.  Just install sshd on both computers.  Then you just type scp file user@ip:
[09:49] <xubuntunoob> gordonjcp: yes, it is def recognizing the cdrom now because in the control panel it displays 'xubuntu' in the e drive
[09:49] <amaina> ssh? where did i get that
[09:49] <JasonN> jungoh: It sounds like its not finding the correct resolution for your monitor, have you ever read the xorg.conf file before?
[09:49] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: ok, so you can see files on the CD, yeah?
[09:49] <Frogzoo> jungoh: irssi is text based
[09:49] <MajorPayne> jungoh: irssi
[09:49] <amaina> im new in ubunto what shall i do
[09:49] <MajorPayne> amaina: sudo aptitude install sshd
[09:49] <sauvin> so is epic, and so is BitchX, iirc.
[09:49] <Frogzoo> jungoh: run it on one of the ctrl alt f1-f6 ttys
[09:49] <gordonjcp> jungoh: irssi + screen ftw
[09:50] <jungoh> Frogzoo: that's what I'm doing right now but I'm using ircii it kind of sucks
[09:50] <nomin> xubuntunoob: try the link MajorPayne gave you.  You will need to use windows to download the data for a floppy disk, then you will put that data onto a floppy disk.  Next, you will restart your computer with the floppy disk AND the ubuntu cd in the drives.  The computer will boot from the floppy automatically and you will be given some options.  One of those options will be to boot from the ubuntu cd.
[09:50] <jungoh> JasonN: :/ nope
[09:50] <Frogzoo> !appdb | cupps
[09:50] <ubotu> cupps: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:50] <MajorPayne> !aptitude | amaina
[09:50] <ubotu> amaina: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[09:50] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: what happens when you try to boot from the CD?
[09:51] <MajorPayne> amaina: You can get most things you need for Ubuntu with aptitude, or what ever package manager you like.
[09:51] <jungoh> JasonN: BRB
[09:51] <gutsytrials> Anyone here wanna walk me through fixing grub?  I'm getting Error 22
[09:51] <gutsytrials> I'm only asking here, because it may not be gutsy related.
[09:51] <xubuntunoob> gordonjcp: ummmm, ya, i can see files on the menu... but that old dell has one port that shares a cdrom OR a sloppy disk, one or the other, but not both at once
[09:52] <xubuntunoob> floppy
[09:52] <JusticeZero> heh. I'm trying to fix my own grub. :p
[09:52] <gutsytrials> I probably screwed up grub somehow. :)
[09:52] <amaina> is that easy 4 me to understand that
[09:52] <gutsytrials> Damn it grub!
[09:52] <jungoh> Frogzoo: Thanks at least I can scroll with this :D
[09:52] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: ah, is it a laptop?
[09:52] <MajorPayne> amaina: If you are going to be using Ubuntu is is good to know.
[09:53] <JasonN> jungoh: It sounds like you may be best running the auto config again, so make a back up of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then run the sudo line recommended in the first paragraph of that file.
[09:53] <JusticeZero> I'm not sure what error 22 is. For me, I swapped my hard drives around and took out the dead weight ones, and it confused Grub.
[09:53] <MajorPayne> amaina: Instead of asking, "Where do I get that?" all the time you can just try "sudo aptitude install appName" first.
[09:54] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: what happens when you try booting the Xubuntu CD?
[09:54] <amaina> how do i install?
[09:54] <MajorPayne> amaina: Install what?
[09:54] <amaina> k ? again
[09:54] <tsocks> hello everybody ...
[09:54] <xubuntunoob> gordonjcp: the bios is froze up, so i cannot boot live from the cd
[09:54] <KI4IKL> amaina, open a terminal and type sudo synaptic :) find yoru package in there, mark it for install, then hit install...easiest for newer users.
[09:55] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: hrm, that's a problem - you can't set it to boot from CD at all?
[09:55] <SlickMcRunfast> flash it
[09:55] <SlickMcRunfast> it could just be a dead disk
[09:55] <SlickMcRunfast> about 5000 things could be wrong
[09:55] <SlickMcRunfast> ahhhhhhhh
[09:56] <tsocks> when  I insert the CD of Ubuntu Feisty 7.04... it doesn't load correctly... ;-(
[09:56] <YANP> I have found this: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7530 but what do I do now?  Can someone please help me?  I have no clue what I am doing.  First day ever on Linux.
[09:56] <YANP> All I want to do is play Guild Wars
[09:56] <SoulPropagation> I just installed the nVidia drivers, and now I have a blank screen instead of a GUI. I can get to the Alt+F1 et al terminals just fine. What should I do to get my graphics back
[09:56] <MajorPayne> YANP: People in #wine may be able to help you.
[09:56] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: what you *could* do is take the drive out, put it in another PC, and install Xubuntu on it there
[09:57] <gordonjcp> xubuntunoob: you might need an adaptor to go from laptop drive to "normal" drive
[09:57] <xubuntunoob> oh, god, way over my head
[09:57] <UbuntuGuruz0r> hi all
[09:57] <NemesisD> upon logging in im now getting "Internal error. failed to initialize HAL!", what gives
[09:57] <MajorPayne> xubuntunoob: Fixing your BIOS isn't really something this channel can do for you.
[09:58] <YANP> Those people are not talking.. =\
[09:58] <jungoh> JasonN: Okay that seemed to go fine, i tried restarting GDM after but it's doing the same crap
[09:58] <thedonvaughn> YANP, you installed wine and guild wars?  There are many docs on line.  Google is your friend
[09:58] <gutsytrials> I've grown quite accustomed to Ubuntu now, so I don't want to do a fixmbr in windows, as that will not allow me to boot Ubuntu.
[09:58] <UbuntuGuruz0r> i am a Linux genius
[09:59] <KMoth> no
[09:59] <KMoth> no ur not
[09:59] <UbuntuGuruz0r> Yes i am.
[09:59] <UbuntuGuruz0r> Im a hacker too
[09:59] <UbuntuGuruz0r> I have sub7
[09:59] <tsocks> when  I insert the CD of Ubuntu Feisty 7.04... it has a problem booting ... ;( I think it's not compatible with my CD-ROM ...
[09:59] <KMoth> no i am
[09:59] <YANP> I installed wine..and when I right click setup.exe all it says is 'open'
[09:59] <YANP> I even went to cd /media/cdrom in terminal and wine setup.exe
[09:59] <JasonN> jungoh: whats your setup, monitor / graphics card / (laptop/desktop)
[09:59] <YANP> and it gives me a bunch of stuff I have no clue on what it is doing
[09:59] <gutsytrials> UbuntuGuru0r: Prove it.  I need grub help!
[09:59] <astro76> YANP, yes you have to run it in a terminal like that, but first you need to run winecfg
[10:00] <xubuntunoob> oh, well... started this with burning the cd at my friends house at about 9pm.  it's 4am now, guess it's time to give up.  wc fields said, if at first you don't succeed, try, try, again.  then quit.  no sense making a damn fool of yourself... lol
[10:00] <dcordes> !grub | gutsytrials
[10:00] <ubotu> gutsytrials: 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
[10:00] <cupps> Anyone know why World of Warcraft would play the opening movie perfectly, but then close before going to the login screen in Wine?
[10:00] <gutsytrials> thanks.
[10:00] <YANP> I already cfg cd rom...not sure what else to do..someone helped me do that..I am stupid...
[10:00] <jungoh> JasonN: Graphics Card: GeForce 6600, desktop, some piece of crap gateway monitor (FPD1530)
[10:01] <astro76> YANP, cfg cd rom? you have to run winecfg in a terminal
[10:01] <thedonvaughn> YANP, if you're stupid what are you doing running linux?  Better get used to reading :)
[10:01] <xoRock> need help, does anyone know how to install app with wine-doors that is not listed in its list?
[10:02] <gutsytrials> OK, there is helpful info there, but how do I know which directory grub should be in?
[10:02] <tsocks> when  I insert the CD of Ubuntu Feisty 7.04... it has a problem booting ... ;( I think it's not compatible with my CD-ROM ...
[10:02] <YANP> my friend gave me linux
[10:02] <wehttamb_> has anyone used the MSI S430 with ubuntu?
[10:02] <YANP> that and my vista crashed in only 7 days of buying my new computer
[10:02] <JasonN> Are you using the propriatary nvidia drivers or the nv one?
[10:02] <wehttamb_> i have searched but can not find if it will work
[10:02] <tsocks> Is Ubuntu Feisty 7.04 incompatible with any CD-ROM ??
[10:02] <YANP> and hewlett packard didnt help me at all
[10:02] <SoulPropagation> Me, JasonN?
[10:02] <thedonvaughn> tsocks, I'd be more specific.  what is it doing?  Does it give errors?  We can't see your PC so you have to give us as much detail as possible if you want help
[10:02] <JusticeZero> It might be a bad burn.
[10:02] <JasonN> jungoh: Are you using the propriatary nvidia drivers or the nv one?
[10:03] <gutsytrials> Vista is ludicrous.  You are doing the right thing coming here, though setup CAN be a hassle still.
[10:03] <gutsytrials> (as most of these posts prove).
[10:03] <wehttamb_> i am looking at buying the S430 but im not shure if it will work with ubuntu
[10:03] <KI4IKL> tsocks, do you have your bios setup for your cdrom to be the main boot thingy (lack of better words)
[10:03] <jungoh> JasonN: Proprietary "restricted" drivers
[10:03] <JasonN> SoulPropagation: sorry no, dropped the name.
[10:03] <YANP> all I want is guild wars..nothing else..
[10:03] <Jordan_U> YANP, wine does not work with evey program, have you checked winedb to see if this program is supported?
[10:03] <SoulPropagation> JasonN: ok, I'm having gfx problems too :P
[10:03] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: yep, sorry ;-( ...
[10:03] <YANP> Going to have to buy Windows XP on pay day.
[10:03] <YANP> what is winedb?
[10:03] <toxic> Hi, is there any way I can check (preferably easy using a script) the size of a sector on a block device?
[10:03] <Jordan_U> !winedb | YANP
[10:03] <KMoth> BUY?
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about winedb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: i don't have the pc here right now, but i tried to run feisty in 2 pcs...
[10:03] <YANP> Someone helped with wine..didnt even know what that was
[10:03] <wehttamb_> has anyone used the MSI S430 with ubuntu?
[10:04] <jungoh> YANP: I've got GW working in wine, I don't know what i did differently than you though
[10:04] <KMoth> WHAT IS THIS "BUY" OF WHICH YOU SPEAK..? Linux, it comes, on a *torrent*...
[10:04] <Jordan_U> !appdb | YANP
[10:04] <ubotu> YANP: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[10:04] <KMoth> *Torrents* are magical things...
[10:04] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: in the first, when it says: "loading vmlinuz..................................." (something like this), a window appear showing an error (i can't remember, i do not have the cd here)...
[10:04] <xoRock> nevermind, it can't install app not in the list
[10:04] <UbuntuGuruz0r> any ubuntu rooms where linux gods hang out?
[10:04] <YANP> Well I am going to have to buy Windows Xp to replace linux because I cant play guild wars
[10:04] <gutsytrials> YANP: winedb is a database of all the windows apps and how they work in wine.  It is setup very poorly though, as is winecfg, which is where MOST of the problems arise.
[10:04] <JasonN> SoulPropagation: Arent we all, maybe we should all move over to #xorg
[10:04] <thedonvaughn> UbuntuGuruz0r, what's a room?
[10:04] <dissection> !videoediting
[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about videoediting - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:04] <KMoth> UbuntuGuruz0r: All the Gods hang out at #WeWorshipKMoth
[10:05] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: and, in the other one, it shows the menu (start or istall, etc..) ... and i choose start ubuntu, but it spend a big time loading ;-(
[10:05] <YANP> well reading these pages dont help me any because I dont know what any of this stuff is..I didnt even know what a terminal was or where it was until a minute ago
[10:05] <KMoth> ! wine | ubotu

[10:05] <gutsytrials> I'm sitting here patiently in the live cd waiting for some help with grub.
[10:05] <thedonvaughn> tsocks, have you tried re-burning it to another cd-rom?
[10:05] <osaka> sdf
[10:05] <gutsytrials> I also hit #grub, but nobody is alive in there.
[10:05] <dissection> Anybody here has used Nuke?
[10:05] <YANP> The only thing I know how to do is get on myspace
[10:06] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: no, the cd is original, but ... the problem isn't of the cd, because it works fine in another computer ;-(
[10:06] <tsocks> thedonvaughn: sorry about my english ;(
[10:06] <SoulPropagation> good thinking JasonN
[10:06] <gutsytrials> Thanks for that Kmoth. LOL
[10:06] <KI4IKL> tsairox, do you have your bios setup to boot from cd?
[10:06] <gutsytrials> True enough there doesn't EVER seem to be help in #grub.
[10:07] <KMoth> XD
[10:07] <YANP> First, open a terminal window. Then add the repository's key to your system's list of trusted APT keys by copy and pasting the following: what the hell does that mean?
[10:07] <thedonvaughn> gutsytrials, it tells you EXACTLY in the link you were given how to fix grub.  read it
[10:07] <gutsytrials> Just did.
[10:07] <MajorPayne> !ohmy | YANP
[10:07] <ubotu> YANP: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:08] <gutsytrials> I don't know what drive it is on.  I don't know how to use the console very well.
[10:08] <Jordan_U> YANP, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7530
[10:08] <gutsytrials> I'm scared and alone.
[10:08] <YANP> how is hell a bad word?  It is a place... =\
[10:08] <gutsytrials> well, scared and in here.
[10:08] <YANP> Oh I have amd64 if that helps any
[10:08] <magic_ninja> is it possible to compile source code for a windows program on linux for windows
[10:08] <KMoth> My site is pasteblue...
[10:08] <KMoth> pasteblue.com - is my site...
[10:08] <SoulPropagation> Everything's going to be okay. :D
[10:08] <gutsytrials> YANP: What are you trying to do?
[10:08] <thedonvaughn> gutsytrials, it tells u how to find out by using 'find' in grub.  you're not going to use linux without breaking your pc a couple times.. best way to learn.  get digging
[10:09] <KMoth> I own... pasteblue.com..
[10:09] <gutsytrials> OK, first I'm gonna help YANP.
[10:09] <wehttamb_> has anyone used the MSI S430 with ubuntu?
[10:09] <tj9991> I thought ubuntu was against censorship?
[10:09] <gutsytrials> YANP is your question about wine?
[10:09] <Jordan_U> YANP, That says that it is "GWSetup.exe" and not just "setup.exe" did you try "wine ~/Desktop/GWSetup" ( if it is on your desktop ) ?
[10:09] <KMoth> !pc | YANP
[10:09] <YANP> I am trying to play guildwars...all I got are like 100 webpages these people have gave me..and I have no clue what any of them do or what they are saying..the only thing I know how to do is get on myspace
[10:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:09] <gutsytrials> God ubotu is clueless I swear.
[10:09] <KMoth> GO AWAY
[10:09] <gutsytrials> LOL
[10:10] <wehttamb_> has anyone used the MSI S430 laptop with ubuntu?
[10:10] <gutsytrials> OK YANP, meat me over in #winehq
[10:10] <Jordan_U> YANP, I mean "wine ~/Desktop/GWSetup.exe"
[10:10] <thedonvaughn> YANP, unfortunately you will need to read up on the wiki.  You can't expect us to walk you through everything.  Installing a game is pretty trivial.  You may be lost but if you keep reading and playing around you'll get it
[10:11] <gutsytrials> YANP, meet me in #winehq
[10:11] <gutsytrials> I will walk you through the GUI commands.
[10:11] <YANP> windows is easier =\ now I must buy xp on my payday =\
[10:11] <Cat`> heh
[10:11] <gutsytrials> And not give you dozens of arcane terminal commands that make no sense.
[10:11] <Cat`> you just need to learn linux
[10:11] <Cat`> i was clueless once too
[10:12] <gutsytrials> YANP, do you have wine installed?
[10:12] <KI4IKL> YANP, you get used to it eventually.
[10:12] <MajorPayne> YANP: Not only that, you are trying to run a game that doesn't run nativly in the OS.  You have to expect some setup time.
[10:12] <YANP> yes I have wine installed
[10:12] <LinuxProbie> how do you sudo deleting a file and/or directory
[10:12] <Cat`> do you really want it deleted?
[10:12] <thedonvaughn> LinuxProbie, rm and rm -r for directory
[10:12] <Cat`> yes
[10:12] <JusticeZero> Well, the other thing is that people give you arcane terminal commands to avoid "Click System, then Administration, then this thing, go to the tab marked blah, find the fourth radio button and.."
[10:13] <Cat`> the -r  means recursive
[10:13] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: sudo rm -r directry, rm for file.  But be careful, you can get em back.
[10:13] <dcordes> !rm | LinuxProbie
[10:13] <ubotu> LinuxProbie: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:13] <Cat`> arrr everyone answers before me
[10:13] <Cat`> = ( i wanted to help
[10:13] <LinuxProbie> MajorPayne, trying to remove an old user account.
[10:13] <mickey> type faster :P
[10:13] <dcordes> lol
[10:13] <Administrator_> i am trying to install ubuntu on a Piii RM computer - i am getting numerous [  xxx.yyyyyy]  Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 66***   is my cd damaged ? or my drive ? or something else
[10:13] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: "userdel user".
[10:13] <Administrator_> ?
[10:14] <dcordes> LinuxProbie: system/administration/users then
[10:14] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: And then remove the home directory with "rm -r /home/user".
[10:14] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: With "sudo".
[10:14] <SoulPropagation> Administrator_: Your hard drive is damaged, I think.
[10:14] <thedonvaughn> Administrator_, something is bad. bad cable, bad cd-rom, or bad device period
[10:14] <UbuntuGuruz0r> are there any ubuntu-advanced channels?
[10:14] <dcordes> let him do it gui way
[10:14] <LinuxProbie> MajorPayne, did the userdel thing, but the directory was still there.
[10:14] <SoulPropagation> someone ban guru PLEASE?
[10:14] <thedonvaughn> SoulPropagation, sr0 is his cd or dvd rom
[10:14] <dcordes> UbuntuGuruz0r: for subseven  purpose?
[10:14] <LinuxProbie> and removing the home directory gets rid of it all?
[10:14] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: The directory was still there with "sudo rm -r /home/user"?
[10:15] <thedonvaughn> UbuntuGuruz0r, #freebsd
[10:15] <dcordes> LinuxProbie: of the user's settings
[10:15] <thedonvaughn> LinuxProbie, sudo rm -rf /home/user
[10:15] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: Unless the user had files elsewhere they had access to.
[10:15] <KI4IKL> LinuxProbie, if the directory isn't empty, use sudo rm -rf /blablaba
[10:15] <Administrator_> SoulPropagation: and thedonvaughn  - this machine has installed both win98 and winxp fom scratch, so i suspect the drives are ok, and this cd has loaded on another machine i have here - is that any help ?
[10:15] <dcordes> LinuxProbie: do what i said go to your panel ,tehn lclick system administration users
[10:15] <thedonvaughn> Administrator_, i don't know which it is... just one of those 3. up to yo uto figure out ;)
[10:16] <LinuxProbie> I got it to work, everything is kewl.
[10:16] <NemesisD> should i format the swap partition as logical or primary
[10:17] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: "sudo userdel -r user" will remove the home directory automadicly.  It says so in "man userdel".
[10:17] <astro76> NemesisD, it doesn't matter
[10:17] <NemesisD> k
[10:17] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: Or you can remove it with rm, it really doesn't make a difference.
[10:18] <LinuxProbie> eh, removeing the directory manually did the trick
[10:18] <taishi28012> I was wondering, If I had a large enough flash drive could I install and configure Ubuntu on there and then mirror it to my hard drive
[10:18] <SoulPropagation> taishi28012: yes
[10:18] <aldcor> hey people.. if i will reinstall my ubuntu by this - Ubuntu CD in cd-rom, ress, boot... than this will delet my current ubuntu and i will be able to install it from 0 ? (i have Win too, so it's important to del only ubuntu) p.s. or maybe there is different ways?
[10:18] <MajorPayne> LinuxProbie: Yea.  That was just for future reference.
[10:18] <SoulPropagation> I just installed the nVidia drivers, and now I have a blank screen instead of a GUI. I can get to the Alt+F1 et al terminals just fine. What should I do to get my graphics back
[10:19] <JusticeZero> aldcor you're asking if reinstalling will wipe out the current install? It will, yes.
[10:19] <thedonvaughn> aldcor, you can also just boot up the ubuntu cd-rom installer and do manual partiton setup and make sure you choose to "format" the partitiosn over.  this will re-install ubuntu over your old one
[10:19] <bjwebb> hi
[10:19] <LinuxProbie> MajorPayne, Thanx for your help
[10:20] <Administrator_> what does it mean when i get stuck on : " isolinux 3.11 DEbian-2007-03-12 copyright.... petyer anvin..."  after disabling 32 bit transfer on the cd rom bios page ?
[10:20] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, in a terminal run this command and choose "nv" as the driver "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[10:20] <bjwebb> is it possible to get the bidirectional ooxml translators in ubuntu?
[10:20] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: Will I be able to run beryl on nv?
[10:20] <aldcor> this will reinstall only ubuntu, isn't it? there is important info for me on WIn
[10:20] <Administrator_> and " unable to locate rdsp" ?
[10:20] <Paddy_EIRE> Jordan_U, whats the -phigh flags do
[10:21] <JusticeZero> It installs only ubuntu yes, so long as you don't tell it to format the windows partition
[10:21] <MajorPayne> aldcor: As long as you don't tell the partitoner to remove the Windows partitons.
[10:21] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, No, but this will get you back to a GUI which I assume you are more comfortable with where you can fix things more easily from there.
[10:21] <MajorPayne> aldcor: When installing.
[10:21] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: I'm more comfortable setting things up from the terminal actually lol
[10:21] <JasonN> Paddy_EIRE: It makes sure it doesnt ask you too many questions no one knows the answer to.
[10:22] <aldcor> ok, i will check how it works... i hope all will be ok
[10:22] <Jordan_U> Paddy_EIRE, Only asks high priority questions, in this case driver and resolution.
[10:22] <bjwebb> ?
[10:22] <Paddy_EIRE> JasonF, was always looking for something like that
[10:22] <MajorPayne> aldcor: Just read caruflly.  IE, don't do anything like install it on the whole disk.
[10:22] <MajorPayne> aldcor: That would remove the Windows partition.
[10:22] <aldcor> shure
[10:23] <linkstack> help,how to open a RPM file in Ubuntu linux?
[10:23] <SoulPropagation> Crap, what did I miss
[10:23] <bjwebb> can anyone help me with my question?
[10:23] <taishi28012> I was wondering, if I had a large enough flash drive could I install and configure Ubuntu and then mirror that to my hard drive
[10:23] <corevette> what is ubufox?
[10:23] <crolle17> how to get the version of svn?
[10:23] <bjwebb> linkstack: alien might work
[10:23] <thedonvaughn> aldcor, just choose "manual partition" when you go the gparted.  It will do only what you tell it. Only tell it to format your ubuntu partition(s).  you'll be fine.
[10:23] <aldcor> all i need is read.... it's allways important when you install something on linux
[10:23] <MajorPayne> !rpm | linkstack
[10:23] <ubotu> linkstack: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[10:23] <thedonvaughn> taishi28012, you've always been awnsered.  yes
[10:23] <Cat`> linkstack, what do you want in an rpm file?
[10:23] <aldcor> yea.. at first i remind gparted
[10:23] <JusticeZero> I'm pretty sure the answer is 'yes' taishi, but i'm hazy how.
[10:23] <Cat`> linkstack, you could probably find the same program in repos
[10:24] <MajorPayne> linkstack: I suggest using the Ubuntu package manager if you can get the application you want with it.
[10:24] <Jordan_U> linkstack, What are you trying to install?
[10:24] <aldcor> couse there i saw partitions like image... that was isier for me
[10:24] <bjwebb> is it possible to get the bidirectional ooxml translators in ubuntu?
[10:24] <Paddy_EIRE> linkstack, or you could try getdeb for the package you are looking for if it aint in the repos
[10:24] <Eversun> hello thanks for the cd.
[10:25] <linkstack> Cat,I want to install a software,what should I do in Ubuntu linux?
[10:25] <Cat`> linkstack,  what software?
[10:25] <Eversun> i want to use ubuntu as server and workstation.
[10:25] <Paddy_EIRE> linkstack, what is the software
[10:25] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, How did you install the nvidia drivers?
[10:25] <Cat`> linkstack,  name of program
[10:25] <Eversun> is that posibble?
[10:25] <bjwebb> hello?
[10:25] <Warp4_work> Eversun, i do it all the time.
[10:25] <linkstack> SDL
[10:25] <linkstack> SDL
[10:25] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: from the sys>administration menu, I'm on a 4Ti
[10:25] <thedonvaughn> linkstack, open up a terminal.  learn aptitude, it's your best friend.  "sudo aptitude search <name of package>" to find the pacakge name.  "sudo aptitude install <package>" to install it
[10:25] <aldcor> btw... it's hard to tell things like i want it couse my ENG sux
[10:25] <Eversun> can install dreamweaver 8, zend, photoshop,asp?
[10:26] <Cat`> linkstack, apt-cache search SDL
[10:26] <Eversun> Warp4_work
[10:26] <thedonvaughn> !nvidia | jordan_u
[10:26] <Cat`> linkstack, its a basic package in repo
[10:26] <Cat`> linkstack, are you going to compile something?
[10:26] <Jordan_U> thedonvaughn, Wrong guy :)
[10:26] <ubotu> jordan_u: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:26] <crolle17> how to get the version of svn?
[10:26] <thedonvaughn> oh
[10:26] <bjwebb> is it possible to get the bidirectional ooxml translators in ubuntu?
[10:26] <MajorPayne> thedonvaughn: You don't need sudo for aptitude search.
[10:27] <thedonvaughn> MajorPayne, oh right on
[10:27] <Cat`> linkstack, sudo aptitude install libsdl-image1.2 libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2 libsdl-net1.2-dev
[10:27] <Cat`> paste that
[10:27] <Paddy_EIRE> MajorPayne, you do for install thought so best to keeo it uniform and easy to follow
[10:27] <bjwebb> hello?
[10:27] <Cat`> will fix your problem probably
[10:27] <Cat`> heh
[10:27] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, Is this a fairly new card?
[10:27] <MajorPayne> Paddy_EIRE: It's not a good idea to use sudo when you don't need it.
[10:27] <Eversun> Warp4_work: how to setup server?how to share internet to the workstations?
[10:27] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: no, it's very old. I've gotten Beryl to work on it a while back though.
[10:27] <crolle17> Cat`, what is better: aptitude install or dpkg install?
[10:28] <KennyKix> does anyone know how to get my toolbars back? i've just installed compiz-fusion
[10:28] <linkstack> thacks
[10:28] <Eversun> i tried to connect my workstation but they cant get internet
[10:28] <Cat`> I always aptitude
[10:28] <linkstack> thanks
[10:28] <Paddy_EIRE> crolle17, different kettle of fish
[10:28] <Eversun> its my first time to use ubuntu
[10:28] <MajorPayne> crolle17: You can use dpkg when you already have the deb downloaded.
[10:28] <Cat`> never used dpkg actually
[10:28] <Eversun> ubuntu 7x

[10:29] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[10:35] <Paddy_EIRE> toed, it will remember what you had it at

[10:36] <toed> Paddy_EIRE: unfortunately the thumbnails are too low-res to be magnified much, is there a way to make them be generated at a higher res?
[10:36] <Paddy_EIRE> toed, yeah
[10:36] <Jordan_U> heskethj, What do you mean by starting an x session in a window?
[10:36] <Eversun> Paddy_EIRE: thedonvaughn : Toma-: i want to use the static now. can you guys wait please?
[10:36] <thedonvaughn> Eversun, what wireless card?  can you see the card?
[10:36] <Paddy_EIRE> toed, i think you can effect that aswell although I cant be sure
[10:37] <Paddy_EIRE> toed, try nautilus prefs and on the previews tab
[10:37] <Geronim1> I have a problem, When I try to update apt on my notebook it say echec connection  :X
[10:37] <heskethj> Jordan_U, I need to start an X session in a window. Xnest does this fine, however I am not sure how to then execute a shell script inside it. The shell scrip will execute GDM but must perform a few other tasks first
[10:37] <dissection> Anyone know of a really good video editing, and compositing software for Linux?
[10:37] <Eversun> Paddy_EIRE: thedonvaughn : Toma- : marvel yukon lancard

[10:37] <heskethj> dissection, I rather like cinerella (google it)
[10:37] <Eversun> Paddy_EIRE: thedonvaughn : Toma- wait im not sure really
[10:38] <Eversun> Paddy_EIRE: thedonvaughn : Toma- : how to look the landcard in ubuntu?
[10:38] <heskethj> disscetion, it has a poor interface, but it is the most feature full for effects and other things
[10:38] <toed> Paddy_EIRE: I don't see anything relevant there
[10:38] <Eversun> Paddy_EIRE: thedonvaughn : Toma-: sorry im really excited to use ubuntu and its my first time
[10:38] <Jordan_U> heskethj, Is there any reason you can't just use an xterm?
[10:38] <Administrator_> can ububntu install and run adequatly on pentium3 550mhz with 384 ram ?
[10:39] <Paddy_EIRE> http://www.getdeb.net/category.php?id=12 dissection I think some of these apps are avail through the repos
[10:39] <r00723r0> i have a question
[10:39] <tsocks> !nickometer h4ck3r_d3lux3
[10:39] <heskethj> Jordan_U, Xnest is to be launched from another shell script and I can't get it to open xterm, I don't seem to be able to do anything in Xnest.
[10:39] <r00723r0> ddclient is just a cronjob right?
[10:39] <r00723r0> basically?
[10:39] <r00723r0> tsocks: [||||||||||-]  (90%)
[10:39] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, ddclient is a script.  u can put in as a cronjob if you want to run it regularly
[10:39] <r00723r0> no
[10:39] <lukasz> ?
[10:39] <r00723r0> i mean the daemon
[10:39] <tsocks> xD
[10:39] <tsocks> !nickometer r00723r0
[10:39] <tsocks> ;-)
[10:39] <dissection> heskethj: Okay, I'm checking it out. Do you happen to have any work online that was done using Cinerella?
[10:39] <heskethj> Jordan_U, If I do "Xnest :22" and then "glxgears -display :22" it works, but I'm not sure how I can send a shell script to run inside there... I can't even send xterm into there
[10:39] <Eversun> brb reboot
[10:40] <r00723r0> tsocks: -----[]  (-50%)

[10:40] <tsocks> r00723r0: i don't think so ...
[10:40] <Eversun> wait a second

[10:40] <tsocks> r00723r0: http://wiki.linux-irc.net/wiki/AUP#Nicks
[10:40] <ubotu> lukasz: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[10:40] <Eversun> is it okay to use p4 3ghrz 500ram?
[10:40] <lukasz> kto mi pomoze w konfiguracji ubuntu???
[10:40] <Eversun> for server?
[10:40] <r00723r0> thedonvaughn: does it run commands as soon as the ip is changed, or does it work every 10 minutes or something like that
[10:40] <Jordan_U> heskethj, I think you need to change the $DISPLAY environment variable
[10:40] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, uhm there is no ddclient deamon.. it's a perl script
[10:41] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, nope it runs only when u run it
[10:41] <r00723r0> ...
[10:41] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, atleast i don't have a daemon.  my ddclient is just a perl script
[10:41] <r00723r0> yes there is
[10:41] <heskethj> dissection, no sorry, not online. The editor is linear based, rather like adobe premier to an extent. I did find it a little unstable with some codecs, so find one that works well and go with it (make sure you have ffmepg installed... I think its preferred format is .mov)
[10:41] <heskethj> Jordan_U, thanks, I'll give it a go
[10:41] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, oh you're right you can run it like that..
[10:41] <Eversun> Hello is it okay to use a server which the specs are p4 3grhz, 400DDR?
[10:42] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, not sure if it periodically checks or if it wakes up if your device changes.. check the code :)
[10:42] <Paddy_EIRE> dissection, LiVES seems pretty good
[10:42] <metbsd> so what software do you guys use to create business card
[10:42] <r00723r0> thedonvaughn: it is 4:42 am and i will do ANYTHING necessary not to spend any effort
[10:42] <Jordan_U> heskethj, Tell me if/how you get it working, I am curious :)
[10:42] <cafuego> metbsd: Inkscape
[10:43] <SoulPropagation> metbsd: Illustrator
[10:43] <metbsd> on windows?
[10:43] <Paddy_EIRE> metbsd, you could use inkscape, scribus, gimp, openoffice, xara xtreme amoung others
[10:43] <SoulPropagation> yeah, but you can run it on linux, or in windows on linux =P
[10:43] <heskethj> Jordan_U, no luck. xterm has a parameter (-display) which sets the display. I get the same result with that parameter as I did with setting DISPLAY: "Xlib: connection to ":5.0" refused by server
[10:43] <heskethj> Xlib: No protocol specified
[10:43] <heskethj> xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :5
[10:43] <heskethj> "
[10:43] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, looks like every 180 seconds it checks
[10:44] <r00723r0> thedonvaughn: that's lame as hell
[10:44] <r00723r0> thedonvaughn: i get to remove ddclient now
[10:44] <r00723r0> horray beer
[10:44] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, in fact if you do "ps auwx" while it's running it should say how long it's sleeping.
[10:44] <amexa> hi
[10:44] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, yah it's a quickly written perl script.. watta-ya-gona-do?
[10:45] <thedonvaughn> r00723r0, ps auwx|grep ddclient
[10:45] <r00723r0> perl sucks anyways
[10:45] <amexa> i have a question. how can i change the desktops in the cube? how can i rotate the cube"?
[10:45] <SoulPropagation> ctrl-alt-click ame
[10:45] <SoulPropagation> amexa: *
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, /join #ubuntu-effects
[10:45] <heskethj> amexa, do you know what version of compiz or beryl you are running?
[10:46] <dissection> heskethj: Does it work fine on Ubuntu?
[10:46] <heskethj> dissection, did for me :)\
[10:46] <amexa> i have a question. how can i change the desktops in the cube? how can i rotate the cube?
[10:46] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, /join #ubuntu-effects
[10:46] <tsocks> amexa: go to desktop, and, if your  mouse has wheel, do a wheel-click on desktop and move the mouse...
[10:47] <dissection> heskethj: Did you build it from source?
[10:47] <tsocks> amexa: ?
[10:47] <dissection> Paddy_EIRE: I was looking at that too, thanks. I'll have a look at it too.
[10:47] <Paddy_EIRE> dissection, no probs
[10:47] <amexa> it doesn't work
[10:47] <dissection> heskethj: And what about audio, can I put in an MP3 for the audio layer?
[10:48] <r00723r0> how do i remove all files that were used by previously installed programs?
[10:48] <tsocks> amexa: are you running beryl ?
[10:49] <heskethj> dissection, I can't remember how I installed it... I think I may have found a deb or repo somewhere... As far as I know it handles mp3/mepg
[10:49] <r00723r0> amexa: control+alt+drag
[10:49] <r00723r0> or control+alt+left or right
[10:50] <Jordan_U> heskethj, Depending on what you are trying to do you might be able to use xoo
[10:50] <heskethj> dissection, this could help: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Cinelerra
[10:50] <tsocks> amexa: are you running beryl ?
[10:50] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, are you planning on telling us if you are running compiz or beryl ?
[10:50] <heskethj> Jordan_U, what does it do (apt-getting it)_
[10:50] <amexa> no, compiz
[10:50] <r00723r0> how do i remove all files that were used by previously installed programs?
[10:50] <amexa> its ubuntu built in desktop effects
[10:51] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, you need to make sure you have at least 4 desktops before the cube will work
[10:51] <heskethj> Jordan_U, never mind, I'm having a look at it... I'll let you know
[10:51] <Jordan_U> r00723r0, sudo apt-get remove --purge <package>
[10:51] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, sudo aptitude install gnome-compiz-manager
[10:51] <r00723r0> Jordan_U: the packages are all removed
[10:51] <r00723r0> but the files are still there
[10:51] <r00723r0> i want to remove the files
[10:51] <r00723r0> like config files
[10:51] <amexa> how can i view how many desktops i have??
[10:52] <trekkme> is it possible to turn on/off a hraddrive via konsole? i was thinking about only using my storage hdd only when neede...
[10:52] <Paddy_EIRE> amexa, got to ubuntu-effects and we will continue
[10:52] <tsocks> amexa: oh, no, sorry ;-( ... i have been never used compiz ;( .. but you should find some doc in google about compiz shortcurts
[10:52] <heskethj> Jordan_U, does not look like what I need. It basically just puts an image around an X session so you can make it look like a palm or something
[10:53] <Jordan_U> heskethj, But it let's you run a command at startup
[10:53] <Jordan_U> r00723r0, You can either find them and delete them manually or install the packages again then remove and purge them
[10:53] <AdvoWork> hi, im trying to look for a package to install, but not sure of the exact name, in ubuntu is there a way to get a list of similar packages to say "php dev 5" or similar
[10:54] <r00723r0> Jordan_U: i don't know what they are (the packages, or the files)
[10:54] <Jordan_U> r00723r0, Why do you want to get rid of them?
[10:54] <heskethj> Jordan_U, does it? I can't find any good documentation on the internet or man pages etc
[10:54] <r00723r0> Jordan_U: because i hate them
[10:55] <r00723r0> i want them out
[10:55] <r00723r0> they are not part of my life anymore
[10:55] <cupps> Can someone please take a couple second to help me open WoW in wine?
[10:56] <duryodhan> hey as given in multiple guides on the net I copied some files from my amarok to my iPod using Media Devices -> transfer etc. .. but now the iPod won't play them , I think it thinks they are stolen or something
[10:56] <magnetron> cupps: http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine
[10:57] <Jordan_U> heskethj, Device -> Preferences
[10:57] <Aranel> hi, how can i bind "task manager" to ctrl + esc combination?
[10:57] <Paddy_EIRE> Eversun, any joy ?
[10:57] <cupps> magnetron: I've been there... a couple times. It doesn't address my problem: WoW loads fine, plays the opening video, and then closes without any notice.
[10:57] <heskethj> Jordan_U, heh, nice...
[10:57] <ioioioioiiiio> hi, done of my dvd backup applications are working, they all crash
[10:57] <ViRUS> Heya. I'm having some troubles with my ubuntu install. All QT4 applications look ugly as hell. The font rendering is totally borked: http://mp.terreon.de/qt4-screenshot.png
[10:57] <ioioioioiiiio> what do you think is wrong?
[10:57] <magnetron> cupps: if you start it in a terminal, does it give any errors?
[10:58] <magnetron> cupps: what method did you use to install wow?
[10:58] <SoulPropagation> Why does my GUI route to the external VGA (nothing's hooked up) instead of the laptop screen when I use the nvidia driver?
[10:58] <magnetron> cupps: what method did you use to install wine?
[10:58] <cupps> magentron: I copied the game to a folder on my harddrive, then installed. I did the same for the expansion.
[10:59] <cupps> magnetron: I got wine from winehq.com and followed the Feisty Fawn instructions.
[10:59] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, Set it up with "gksudo nvidia-settings"
[10:59] <fotoflo> why is my ubuntu machine slow?
[10:59] <fotoflo> i thought it was supposed to be fast
[10:59] <magnetron> cupps: just copying the folder from a windows drive could get you in trouble. the recommended way is to run the installer in Ubuntu with wine
[11:00] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: is there a terminal equivalent to that?
[11:00] <cupps> magnetron: http://umsis.miami.edu/~mcupps/printout.txt
[11:00] <SlimeyPete> fotoflo: what's the spec of the machine?
[11:00] <dissection> heskethj: I was told that using Alien is not a good idea. I don't know why. Is it better to use Alien and convert the rpm to debian files, or is it better to compile from source? If I compile using source, will it automatically be a debian file?
[11:00] <cupps> magnetron: That's what I get when I run it from a terminal.
[11:00] <fotoflo> AMD 2.1 ghz, 768 MB ram
[11:00] <cupps> magnetron: I DID install it. I copied each CD to the harddrive and then ran the installer.
[11:00] <SoulPropagation> fotoflo: You're gonna have to be more specific than "why is it slow" what's slow about it
[11:00] <TiMiDo> !coc
[11:00] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[11:01] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, I don't think so, it is Nvidia's proprietary application.
[11:01] <SoulPropagation> oh, ok.
[11:01] <magnetron> cupps: ok. what graphics card do you use? and what drivers?
[11:01] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, I guess you could set it up in your xorg.conf
[11:01] <SlimeyPete> fotoflo: hrm, should be fine. Try "sudo hdparm <device name>" where <device name> is your hard disk (usually /dev/hda or /dev/sda)
[11:01] <SlimeyPete> check that DMA is enabled (it should be)
[11:01] <fotoflo> SoulPropagation, every thing is slow. I even type faster then then kubuntu
[11:02] <heskethj> dissection, using alien isn't too bad... it probably more depends on what you are installing with it. If you used alien to install a kernel module it probably isn't recommended. When you compile it from source you can generate and install a deb by doing "make check" instead of "make install". If you do a direct make install it will copy the files into the system and then you can't remove them with synaptic easily. It really d
[11:02] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: that's what I wanna do. you have any idea how to specify it?
[11:02] <heskethj> epends if you want to install all the libraries and dependencies to build the program or not.
[11:02] <cupps> magnetron: An old ATI... Radeon IGP 340M/440M/540M. It runs WoW in Windows, and I used to be able to run it in Linux awhile back. I use the defaults drivers because when I tried to change them, it made things significantly worse.
[11:02] <stefg> fotoflo: have you checked in the system monitor if some misbehaving app is hogging your CPU?
[11:02] <SlimeyPete> oh, even typing is slow? sounds like Ubuntu doesn't like your hardware somehow
[11:02] <SoulPropagation> right now it's Section "Monitor" > Option "DPMS"
[11:02] <heskethj> dissection, compiling will possibly result in a faster build, but it is more effort
[11:02] <fotoflo> stefg, yeah
[11:02] <fotoflo> stefg, no problem
[11:03] <stefg> fotoflo: Ati video?
[11:03] <Jordan_U> SoulPropagation, No, I am a single monitor man ( laptop )
[11:03] <SoulPropagation> Jordan_U: Guess I'll try nvidia-settings then
[11:03] <fotoflo> SlimeyPete, doesnt say anything about DMA
[11:03] <dissection> heskethj: So if I use alien and install Cinelerra, it'll be easy to remove when I no longer need it? Will it show up under add/remove program or will I end up hunting down files and removing them manually?
[11:03] <magnetron> cupps: i am unable to help you with ATI problems. the ATI drivers for Ubuntu is not in a good shape, but AMD will open-source it.
[11:04] <fotoflo> stefg, intel, on motherboard
[11:04] <SlimeyPete> fotoflo: if it's a SATA drive then it probably won't mention DMA, if it's IDE then it should say something
[11:04] <cupps> magnetron: so does that mean I'm just kinda stuck for now?
[11:04] <heskethj> dissection, it will be easier to remove, but it won't be in add/remove... You will however find it in the more comprehensive package manager "synaptic" found in "system->administration->synaptic"
[11:04] <Mercury> Yes, it's ubuntu specific.
[11:05] <magnetron> cupps: i don't know, someone else might help you getting that card to run wow in wine... i don
[11:05] <waltercool> hi there... someone know how fix nvidia problems?
[11:05] <waltercool> with ubuntu
[11:05] <dissection> heskethj: Okay, that sounds good.
[11:05] <cupps> Does anyone know anything about getting ATI cards to work in Ubuntu 7.04?
[11:05] <Jericho> If anyone could help me I would appreciate it, Can I run the text based installer from the live install CD (I dont want to have to redownload everything)
[11:05] <JasonN> waltercool: yes whats the problem?
[11:05] <stefg> fotoflo, can it be that you use mesa software 3d emulation? what does glxinfo | grep direct turn up?
[11:06] <waltercool> JasonN: I have installed the restricted driver of nvidia, and i have only the resolution in 800x600 :S

[11:07] <Aranel> how can i add a background image to ttyX ?
[11:07] <dissection> heskethj: While doing the apt-get, it said the following packages could not be authenticated. That isn't a problem, right?
[11:07] <cupps> Jordan_U: I've installed WoW in wine, but it won't open. It'll play the opening movie, then it just closes. I have an old, mediocre ATI card (that it capable of running WoW in windows).
[11:07] <waltercool> JasonN: So... how can i get more resolution?
[11:07] <JasonN> waltercool: what does xrandr return?
[11:07] <crolle17> i made the following: i removed the current svn-package and then installed again. but now i get the message: "package subversion is not available; but is referenced by another package. that could mean that a package is too old or only available from another source. E: package subversion has not installationcandidate"
[11:08] <heskethj> dissection, it depends where they are coming from... perhaps you have non-official repositories.... It shouldn't be a problem it is just warning you that the software isn't directly support by Ubuntu
[11:08] <waltercool> JasonN: Only 800x600
[11:08] <arnold> ari
[11:08] <Jordan_U> cupps, Why do you think it's a problem with the card and not wine? Do other 3D apps work?
[11:08] <JasonN> waltercool: Have you tried running the nv driver? does that give you the right options?
[11:09] <Myrth[home] > backports are usually stable enough?
[11:09] <cupps> Jordan_U I don't know that it's with the card and not wine. Is there a way to find out? I've been trying to get help, an what little I've found suggests the card.
[11:09] <waltercool> JasonN: But... i haven't direct rendering with nv, or yes?
[11:09] <cupps> Jordan_U WoW's the only 3d app I have on my laptop right now, but glxgears works perfectly, if that means anything.
[11:09] <waltercool> JasonN: Because, with vesa i can get easy 1280x1024...

[11:12] <bullgard4> Is it true that the installation of the arpwatch DEB program package will install another daemon?

[11:17] <trwww> on the gnome desktop, how can I move an app from workspace to workspace. For example, I need the one instance of pidgin to switch workspaces when I do.
[11:18] <q-tip> Guys I am trying to run a binary on an old glibc anybody have a procedure that will help ??
[11:18] <ubuntu> thats wrong
[11:18] <Paddy_EIRE> trwww, are you running any eye candy
[11:18] <stefg> Nuktar: if you nothing but a browser, it might be wise not to run gnome (or any complete desktop environmet). Just use a simplistic window-manager and run firefox with it
[11:18] <trwww> no
[11:18] <ubuntu> its something like -xvf or something
[11:18] <tiax> dissection: control+c
[11:18] <trwww> dell 1505 ubuntu
[11:19] <Paddy_EIRE> trwww, right click the pidgin title bar
[11:19] <Nuktar> i need the entire os. what about time limited login
[11:19] <dissection> tiax: Okay just making sure so it doesnt end up being downloaded in the background
[11:19] <cupps> Jordan_U?
[11:19] <tiax> dissection: if you didn't start it in the background in the first place, control+c will indeed cancel the download
[11:19] <ubuntu> doesn't work
[11:20] <dissection> tiax: How would I have done that, screen?
[11:20] <stefg> Nuktar: a lot is possible, if you're able to write some scripts. but you'll have to do some research to find something premade targeted at your scenario
[11:20] <tiax> dissection: append a & to the command
[11:20] <Nuktar> time limited login ?
[11:20] <intelikey> anyone willing to help me with sharing ppp0 over my nat(eth0) ?      server setup...    ?
[11:20] <puppe> hi, where can I find the address book file for evolution. (wanna make a backup of it)
[11:21] <intelikey> http://intelikey.pastebin.us/38337  <<< but i'm to network illiterate to know why that doesn't work.
[11:21] <tiax> puppe: Evolution stores it's data  in ~/.evolution/
[11:21] <ubuntu> TiMiDo lets have a private chat
[11:21] <q-tip> .evolution/
[11:21] <TiMiDo> ubuntu, no thanks
[11:21] <Jordan_U> cupps, Yes?
[11:22] <ubuntu> then tell me the right thing
[11:22] <ubuntu> is it -xvz
[11:22] <TiMiDo> ubuntu, unrar -e unrar.rar
[11:22] <feristhia> hi... can we use samba 3 to make linux login against active directory ?
[11:22] <ubuntu> or -xvf or what
[11:22] <stefg> puppe: if you had bothered to google first you'd find this http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/03/how-to-backup-evolution/
[11:22] <Jordan_U> cupps, Sorry just saw your earlier post, if glxgears works then it is probably a problem with wine
[11:23] <cupps> Jordan_U Okay... any suggestions on the wine problem it could be? I linked you the terminal messages and if I disable to opening movie, it doesn't even open.
[11:23] <tsocks> see you !
[11:23] <albacker> heskethj, hey, i think i installed the french thing, but ooo still acts like english. i mean, i type mon instead of monsier it appears monday [which is an english word]  and the french words are underlined... means that ooo doesnt recognize them!!
[11:24] <Nuktar> what about faxing & modem on ubuntu ?
[11:24] <albacker> heskethj, i have already installed french dictionary and i use them with stardict !
[11:24] <Jordan_U> cupps, I don't use wine, sorry
[11:24] <puppe> oki, thanks all. Will google next time first
[11:25] <heskethj> albacker, click on the "spell check" icon (rather the the word highlighting) and down the bottom of that dialog you should be able to choose between your install dictionaries... simply select french there (hopefully)
[11:25] <heskethj> dissection, sorry I was away.. Ctrl+C cancels a command

[11:27] <Ademan> intelikey: i've tried like 15 different combinations of the java directories, none of them seem to work

[11:28] <ubotu> ademan the best i can do is point to the bot...: 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.

[11:29] <Newbie_Dude> Everytime I try to mount an ISO it kinda screws up my Ubuntu. I was told to mount into /tmp ... After that I can't open any programs, and when I try to restart the screen goes black with a bunch of text. is this normal? Is mounting into /tmp bad?
[11:29] <heskethj> dissection, I assume you know how to add repositories to ubuntu?
[11:29] <dissection> heskethj: yes
[11:29] <pentolino> hello everyone
[11:29] <Eversun> hello is ubuntu good for server?
[11:29] <tiax> Newbie_Dude: yes, it's really bad. Try mounting to a subdirectory which you create beforehand
[11:29] <intelikey> Eversun server edition should be   and if it's data critical you'll want the lts version
[11:30] <Newbie_Dude> tiax: no wonder :( someone told me to mount to /tmp 2 days ago >_<
[11:30] <stefg> Newbie_Dude: mounting something to /tmp is the most stupid thing you can do :-) mount to /mnt (whoever came up with /that/ name :-) )
[11:30] <dissection> heskethj: Oh, I can apt-get it, cool :)
[11:30] <Eversun> intelikey: i have ubuntu 7.4 is this good?
[11:30] <JosefK> stefg, don't mount permantly to /mnt ^^ it breaks the LSB
[11:30] <heskethj> dissection, yeah sorry I took so long to find it
[11:30] <magnetron> Newbie_Dude: you should NOT mount it as /tmp. mount it as a subdirectory to /mnt , like /mnt/myiso etc
[11:30] <intelikey> !lts > Eversun
[11:30] <Ademan> rambo3: heh worked like a charm, it was pointing to the gcj or whatever, instead of the sun java?
[11:30] <SoulPropagation> I'm warm and fluffy.
[11:30] <stefg> JosefK: /mnt is exctly for that... mount -o loop some.iso /mnt
[11:31] <dissection> heskethj: I've got Pentium D, so I need the one for Pentium4?
[11:31] <pentolino> I have a strange problem with an executable
[11:31] <CyberMad> how to know all mozilla thunderbird path? i want to know where the mail is saved.. 2nd question, does it possible from mozilla thunderbird (Windows) do migration to Ubuntu?
[11:31] <netyire> does mounting to tmp place the files on swap?
[11:31] <magnetron> SoulPropagation: discuss the fluffyness in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:31] <Scabdates> i'm having partition problems :(
[11:31] <magnetron> netyire: no
[11:31] <JosefK> stefg, that's a temporary mount, that's fine - but according to the LSB (and, thinking about it, practical experience), that's _not_ where permanent mounts should be
[11:31] <Newbie_Dude> magnetron, stefg, tiax: great, just great. thanks for the info. made a new directory in /mnt for it
[11:32] <JosefK> stefg, my bad, it's the Filesystem Heirachy Standard - http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html
[11:32] <heskethj> dissection, yep that should work
[11:32] <tiax> CyberMad: thunderbird lives in ~/.mozilla-thunderbird - in almost any case you should be able to just copy your profile directory from windows
[11:32] <heskethj> dissection, if not, i686 will
[11:32] <Scabdates> I want to dual boot Ubuntu 7.04 with XP Professinal. I'm on XP pro right now and i have a livecd for ubuntu at hand, im using acronis partiton magic to create a partition for ubuntu
[11:33] <pentolino> in Nautilus I have this strange error: "No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file"
[11:33] <stefg> JosefK: you're right, but nobody talked about permanent mounts. mounting an iso ro over /tmp is indeed a clever move to hose a system temporarily
[11:33] <Scabdates> i have 140gb of free space on the HD but its only letting me create a partition of 7mb
[11:33] <Newbie_Dude> JosefK, stefg: and trust me, my system was totally hosed, i could barely do anything
[11:33] <intelikey> Scabdates needs defraged first
[11:33] <dissection> heskethj: Which of the two is better? i686?
[11:34] <CyberMad> tiax do you mean on User Desktop? yes,there is mozilla-thunderbird folder
[11:34] <stefg> Newbie_Dude: i can imagine that... /tmp is imprtant to be world writable... else ->nothing works
[11:34] <Scabdates> OK, will do, thanks intelikey
[11:34] <Jordan_U> dissection, Just use -generic
[11:34] <Jordan_U> !generic | dissection
[11:34] <ubotu> dissection: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[11:34] <intelikey> dissection ummmm probably i686
[11:34] <Jordan_U> intelikey, ^^
[11:34] <Scabdates> im a bit excited because 7.04 has support for my boonie wifi card
[11:35] <dissection> Jordan_U: Generic? There's only the ones for i686, athlonxp and pentium4
[11:35] <intelikey> Jordan_U he asked  "<dissection> heskethj: Which of the two is better? i686?"     only one answer there  :)
[11:36] <heskethj> dissection, I haven't actually seen a pentium4 repository before... p4's are 32bit processors and i686 is for 32 bit
[11:36] <Jordan_U> dissection, linux-image-generic
[11:36] <heskethj> but don't ask me, I'm not arch expert
[11:36] <Jordan_U> dissection, It's the default kernel

[11:41] <dissection> heskethj: It says I need the universe, multiverse and restricted respositories enabled. I had added some like these before. I have many in my sources.list that says restricted, etc.. I don't know exactly which of it is, or if I have the right one...
 if you could give me background i could elabloate plenty. I an a RHCE.
[11:42] <heskethj> dissection, you should have the right ones if you have enabled them before
[11:42] <heskethj> dissection, where does it tell you you need those?

[11:44] <Scabdates> wow this defrag is taking an insanely long time
[11:45] <intelikey> ari_stress typo
[11:45] <dissection> heskethj: Its installing, but I have a question. The source on the website was 27MB. When I'm installing it through apt-get, its only 14MB. Isn't source supposed to be smaller?
[11:46] <matthew> my nvidia isscrewed..
[11:46] <magnetron> dissection: the source will always be larger than the binary
[11:46] <matthew> argg
[11:46] <ari_stress> intelikey: i think it's not typo
[11:46] <matthew> was fine in 6.10 upgraded to 7.04
[11:46] <heskethj> dissection, the compiled one may not be compiled with certain things (unlikely though)... the more likely is that it doesn't have documents with it
[11:46] <dissection> magnetron: Oh, okay, forgive my ignorance
[11:47] <stefg> ari_stress: it's apt-cache search ... syntax error in /dev/brain
[11:47] <intelikey> ari_stress can you show me the two commands     (copy paste  the commands only)  ?
[11:47] <zeeeeee> stefg: i looked at those pages, none of them even mention recording
[11:47] <ari_stress> intelikey: sure
[11:49] <ari_stress> oh man! yes, it's a typo :D. i do this: apt-cache search xfce, not xubuntu-desktop. but still it;s strange. why searching xfce doesnt bring xubuntu-desktop?

[11:54] <intelikey> Michael_T_King i'm all ears
[11:55] <stefg> revilodraw: not strictly necessary but the easiest way
[11:55] <revilodraw> stefg: easy is good lol
[11:55] <ari_stress> intelikey: you need 2 network card
[11:56] <praetor> hi there, i want to install test3 - i have a software (mdadm) raid5 array and wish the installation to set it up for me so that when i boot after install its mounted - do i use the normal iso or the alternative?
[11:56] <stefg> praetor: you need alternate, and to turn to #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[11:57] <ari_stress> praetor: i think no matter what you use, you should setup the raid by yourself
[11:57] <intelikey> ari_stress no only one.
[11:57] <ari_stress> intelikey: 1 is ok, as long as you use another mean to connect to the internet, such as dialup modem / dsl usb
[11:57] <praetor> ari_stress: i have set it up manual on edgy, feisty wouldnt boot with it (known bug). Thing is, Fedora and Foresight set it up perfectly out of the install so I expect Ubuntu to do the same
[11:57] <intelikey> ari_stress yes dialup
[11:57] <Michael_T_King> praetor, alternative.
[11:58] <ari_stress> praetor: oh, i dont know that. cool
[11:58] <revilodraw> stefg: sorry but that has made no difference

[11:59] <Newbie_Dude> Sometimes things in my system tray (like "Desktop Search" and "Wired network connection") disappear -- the icon just vanishes. This only happens if I leave the computer on for a while, but not sure the exact cause. is this normal?
[11:59] <stefg> revilodraw: at least  you good rid of one problem child. see !wifi for a troubleshooting guide
[11:59] <ari_stress> intelikey: here;s how:  iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -d ! 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
[11:59] <revilodraw> stefg: hmm ok... my wireless was working perfectly yesterday....

[12:18] <SlimeyPete> you're more likely to get a good response there

[12:24] <nomasteryoda> dissection, here - http://aplawrence.com/Bofcusm/551.html
[12:24] <nomasteryoda> google helps
[12:24] <intelikey> revilodraw i guess not.
[12:24] <Aaron_> !sudo
[12:24] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:24] <revilodraw> i accepted
[12:25] <dissection> nomasteryoda: That command shows up in that window itself. But is it safe to do it?
[12:25] <nomasteryoda> SHMMAX sets the maximumum size of a shared memory
[12:25] <nomasteryoda> segment - it's a kernel variable.
[12:25] <Aaron_> hey
[12:26] <Aaron_> how do i put my self on the sudo
[12:26] <Aaron_> so i can used it?
[12:26] <nomasteryoda> that is what it does... so yes, that should be ok... your shared memory is just too low for cinelrra to run
[12:26] <intelikey> Aaron_ you can't   someone that can use sudo or root will have to do that.
[12:26] <nomasteryoda> Aaron_, when you setup Ubuntu, the first user is has "sudo rights"
[12:27] <Aaron_> intelikey, i am root =)
[12:27] <intelikey> Aaron_ anyone in the "admin" group can sudo
[12:27] <Aaron_> but how do i add my username to the root?
[12:27] <intelikey> add them to the admin group
[12:27] <Aaron_> how?
[12:27] <dissection> nomasteryoda: I have 768MB RAM, so will that command do any damage to ubuntu?
[12:27] <Aaron_> okey done
[12:27] <nomasteryoda> dissection, it should not affect it that I know of
[12:28] <pabix> Hello. I've a little problem with the keyboard options. I would like to be able to switch between AZERTY (French), QWERTY (English-Us) and French-Dvorak. I use Gnome.
[12:28] <intelikey> Aaron_ a simple test to make sure they can sudo       sudo echo boo
[12:28] <nomasteryoda> it just redirects kernel to provide more shared ram
[12:28] <Joy> is it possible to clone a bug report in launchpad?
[12:28] <intelikey> Aaron_ if it says bo you're in.  else you aren't
[12:28] <intelikey> errr boo
[12:29] <pabix> But when the Dvorak disposition is in the list of my keyboard dispositions (even if not activated) my French disposition won't work any more with the third level
[12:29] <pabix> ~#{[|`\^@] }
[12:29] <pabix> don't work
[12:30] <dissection> nomasteryoda: Is that memory thing valid only for the current session or is it permanent?
[12:30] <Scabdates> i have 140gb freespace but i cant create a partition larger than 7mb
[12:30] <Scabdates> why?
[12:30] <intelikey> ari_stress yes
[12:30] <incorrect> is there a pretty gui for xen?
[12:30] <pabix> and this problem only occurs in a few applications: Xchat for example, not gnome-terminal
[12:30] <AdvoWork> argh whats going on! got a file xdebug.tgz in a folder /var/temp  so i do: cp /var/temp/xdebug.tgz /home/myhome/xdebug  it runs the command so then i try cd /home/myhome/xdebug  (Not a directory) :/
[12:30] <Scabdates> i defragmented also
[12:31] <ari_stress> intelikey: your setup should be working. strange.
[12:31] <intelikey> Scabdates did you let it dfrag the whole drive ?
[12:31] <ari_stress> can you paste the result on proxy server: iptables -t nat -nL
[12:31] <intelikey> ari_stress i think it may be the client box    will you help me with it
[12:31] <Scabdates> intelikey: yes
[12:31] <intelikey> ari_stress i can just a sec
[12:32] <tiax> AdvoWork: you only copied the file, removing the extension. You'll need to decompress it, typing tar xvfz xdebug.tgz - try "mv xdebug xdebug.tgz" first
[12:32] <ari_stress> intelikey: no problem, on the client, all you need to setup is: /etc/resolv.conf, and the default gateway
[12:32] <dissection> nomasteryoda: It said permission denied :(
[12:32] <kids_pro> Hi there I tried to install Ubuntu 7.04 on my Toshiba M100, but my vga card is ATI X1400 I can't install Ubuntu in graphic mode.
[12:32] <kids_pro> I wonder if it possible to download driver and install the VGA from local CD instead of using apt-get install from the internet?
[12:32] <Ben_Cs> i run feisty and i have an : Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950. and when i warzone 2100 the screen is very dark and blue with orange places on map. please help!
[12:33] <intelikey> ari_stress http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38341
[12:33] <Scabdates> intelikey: any idea what the problem may be?
[12:34] <Aaron_> !nvidia
[12:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:34] <intelikey> Scabdates no.   windows uses a page file, often at the end of the system partition...   maybe that is in the way ?
[12:34] <kids_pro> ubotu: the instruction work only if I got internet connection right?
[12:34] <Scabdates> intelikey: what can i do to fix it?
[12:35] <intelikey> turn off vertual memory  ?
[12:35] <leszek> hi
[12:35] <Scabdates> where's that at?
[12:35] <revilodraw> my /proc/net/dev is empty... could someone with working wireless pls send me theres??
[12:35] <manu_> hi, when will the ubuntu recording sound problems be fixed? :/
[12:35] <intelikey> depends on the version and i don't do windows,  maybe in the control pannel
[12:36] <ari_stress> intelikey: it looks good. but try to flush the iptables: iptables -F, and run the previous iptables script again. just to make sure
[12:37] <intelikey> ok flushed
[12:37] <intelikey> ari_stress it doesn't change it tho
[12:38] <ari_stress> intelikey: you mean the result of iptables -t nat -nL is the still the same? it';s ok, now we setup the client
[12:38] <yellow_chicken> is there a safer way to use this "rm -v *~"  ?  if i have a file named "abc~dec~" will be deleted.   i just want to remove all files ending with a ~
[12:38] <intelikey> ok;
[12:39] <intelikey> ari_stress ready.
[12:39] <Scabdates> man that's terrible, i can;t beleive it wont let me make a partiton
[12:39] <Tomcat_> yellow_chicken: Use select pattern in Nautilus.
[12:39] <Tomcat_> yellow_chicken: That way, you can check first.
[12:39] <Tomcat_> yellow_chicken: Or try "echo *~" to see what you'll be deleting. :)
[12:39] <yellow_chicken> Tomcat_: i want command line
[12:39] <ari_stress> intelikey: put the same nameserver from your server /etc/resolv.conf into each client
[12:40] <simon__> Pls help. I tried to install Second life through an installer. by a fault i terminated the install and now none of my package managers work. This is all i get. pls. help.         A unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information. 'E:The package secondlife-install needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.'
[12:40] <intelikey> Scabdates i was handed a notbook with vesta on it,  i pluged it in and dropped a linux cd in the tray booted and issued    cat /dev/zero > /dev/hda       that cleans up windows pretty nicely
[12:40] <intelikey> ari_stress ok.
[12:41] <ari_stress> intelikey: how about the ip of the client? are they all set?
[12:41] <intelikey> ari_stress yeah
[12:42] <defrysk> simon__, I believe an abuntu package of secondlife is available at getdeb.net
[12:42] <simon__> thats not the problem
[12:42] <intelikey> static  192.*   ari_stress
[12:42] <ari_stress> intelikey: ok, as long as the client can ping the server, it's ok. now we setup the default gateway on the client to the server

[12:43] <defrysk> simon__, make sure to shut down any packagemanagergui
[12:43] <simon__> E: The package secondlife-install needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[12:43] <ari_stress> intelikey: the config is at /etc/network/interfaces
[12:43] <intelikey> yeah   and ?
[12:43] <defrysk> try again
[12:43] <defrysk> simon__, try sudo apt-get -f install
[12:43] <simon__> how do i make syre all packagemanagerguis are shutdown?
[12:43] <ari_stress> intelikey: please paste the content of the interfaces file
[12:44] <defrysk> simon__, shut down synaptic and/or gdebi
[12:44] <simon__> so killall synaptic gdebi should do it?
[12:45] <intelikey> ari_stress auto eth0  \n iface eth0 inet dhcp         but i don't think i use that file anyway...
[12:45] <defrysk> simon__, if they are not open they are not running
[12:45] <simon__> i only have the update symbol showing in taskbar. don't know how to get rid of it
[12:45] <defrysk> simon what output do you get from sudo apt-get -f install?
[12:45] <intelikey> ari_stress i issue a command   ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.# up
[12:45] <simon__> if i open the update manager i get the same error.

[12:46] <defrysk> simon__, dont past in the room
[12:46] <simon__> sorry

[12:46] <simon__> i thought it was just a small paste...
[12:46] <defrysk> simon__, you downloaded the .debs ?
[12:47] <KI4IKL> simon__, where did you get secondlife???
[12:47] <ari_stress> intelikey: sorry interuption :D
[12:47] <ari_stress> ok i'm back
[12:47] <KI4IKL> simon__, if you got it from getdeb.com, it's outdated and wont fun
[12:47] <defrysk> KI4IKL, good question
[12:47] <revilodra1> my problem is fixed... THANK YOU to everyone on here that helps each other out
[12:47] <KI4IKL> er run...
[12:47] <simon__> no. i downloaded a third party installer from here: http://www.getdeb.net/category.php?id=3
[12:48] <simon__> yeah.. i did
[12:48] <ari_stress> intelikey: that won't save the config after reboot, we must define it in the file
[12:48] <simon__> and now everything is broke :(
[12:48] <ari_stress> intelikey: let me paste it for you in pastebin
[12:48] <intelikey> ari_stress ok.
[12:48] <KI4IKL> simon__, getdeb's version is outdated and you can't upgrade from linux like just downloading the upgrade from the actual second life program...you need to download and build second life from the source at the site
[12:48] <intelikey> ari_stress which config ?
[12:48] <simon__> my problem is not that i can't get second life
[12:49] <simon__> my problem is that i terminated the installer and now my apt-get and update manager and all that stuff is locked
[12:49] <simon__> it only says E: The package secondlife-install needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[12:49] <blithen> Probably secondlife.com
[12:49] <blithen> Or google it and go to the homepage.
[12:49] <simon__> when i try to install anything
[12:49] <KI4IKL> simon__, restart ubuntu, and it'll unlock apt-get
[12:50] <simon__> i've done it
[12:50] <intelikey> ari_stress command history will "save the config after reboot"  :)       if you can help me to get the thing to work "one time"  it's fixed from now on...     i just need to learn what has to be done.
[12:50] <simon__> didn't help
[12:50] <defrysk> simon__, click the downloadlink and let gedebi reinstall it
[12:50] <simon__> which downlaod link?
[12:50] <defrysk> simon__, maybe that way it can be resolved
[12:50] <cnoi> how to use dvd95?
[12:50] <KI4IKL> simon__, open synaptic, and search for secondlife-install and set for copmelte removal...then reinstall from source on the secondlife site...thats all I know to do.
[12:50] <defrysk> simon__, the secondlife-install link
[12:50] <Zamber> I have a funny issue: I removed all *dms ans configured my systes so that it starts my kde session via .xinitrc (something with *putty on tty1) and I have to manually shutdown from console becouse the off button has only the logout option (in kde and gnome too). Is there a way to get the shutdown button back withour installing any *dm?
[12:51] <user__> I have not got the Title panels in beryl and compiz
[12:51] <ari_stress> intelikey: sorry interuption again
[12:51] <intelikey> ari_stress command history will "save the config after reboot"  :)       if you can help me to get the thing to work "one time"  it's fixed from now on...     i just need to learn what has to be done.
[12:51] <simon__> i can't open synaptics package manager because of the same error
[12:51] <user__> I runed a superkaramba on ubuntu :P
[12:51] <defrysk> simon it needs to be reinstalled
[12:52] <defrysk> just try my suggestion
[12:52] <simon__> and i cant open the any installer
[12:52] <KI4IKL> simon__, sudo apt-get remove secondlife-installer

[12:55] <Newbie_Dude> defrysk: he can't even open synaptic manager, that's major problem

[01:02] <ari_stress> intelikey: oh, let me check the exact command
[01:02] <defrysk> Jarek, sudo apt-get remove <package> --purge ; sudo apt-get clean ; sudo apt-get install <package>
[01:03] <defrysk> jareth_, that is
[01:03] <intelikey> ari_stress how about     route add default gw 192.168.0.1
[01:03] <intelikey> ?
[01:03] <intelikey> 0.1 is the proxy
[01:03] <intelikey> will that work ?
[01:03] <ari_stress> intelikey: that's right
[01:04] <intelikey> k
[01:04] <ari_stress> intelikey: after that check with route -n
[01:04] <intelikey> k
[01:04] <jareth_> defrysk: i locate path to the cache and try that.
[01:04] <gutsytrials> Hi, I've tried about 20 things, and I CANNOT get grub fixed.
[01:04] <gutsytrials> Any help?
[01:04] <intelikey> two lines  looks ok to me
[01:05] <ledemente> I was wondering if I could do it manually with a hexeditor. : \
[01:05] <simon__> defrysk: hm... now it looks like the installer has stalled... I will wait and see if anything more happens but its been waiting for a long time. this was the last message: Preparing to replace secondlife-install 1.17.0.12-1~getdeb1 (using secondlife-install_1.17.0.12-1~getdeb1_i386.deb) ...
[01:05] <ari_stress> intelikey: ok now try to ping www.ubuntu.com
[01:05] <defrysk> jareth_, as long as the downloaded tar.gz is being removed before trying a reinstall
[01:05] <intelikey> ari_nope times out
[01:05] <intelikey> ari_stress nopt
[01:05] <intelikey> nope
[01:05] <HEP85> hellsing: System-->Settings-->Main Menu
[01:05] <intelikey> typo.....
[01:05] <defrysk> simon__, maybe some patience is being required
[01:06] <intelikey> ari_stress   nope   it times out trying to ping
[01:06] <ari_stress> intelikey: can it ping to the proxy server?
[01:06] <defrysk> simon__, also read the comments on that package for secondlife : http://www.getdeb.net/comment.php?rel_id=1057
[01:06] <intelikey> ari_stress you bet
[01:06] <simon__> yeah. maybe. like 1o minutes... while the cpu usage is at a minimum?
[01:06] <ari_stress> intelikey: ok, try this command: dig www.ubuntu.com
[01:07] <jareth_> defrysk: i locate path to the cache and try that.
[01:07] <defrysk> simon__, in short bad decision to try that package
[01:07] <defrysk> jareth_, k
[01:07] <jareth_> defrysk: still the same shit.. maybe try it yourself to see ??
[01:07] <intelikey> ari_stress looks like another time out
[01:07] <razorx> i have a problem.. my gdesklet is acting wierd
[01:07] <simon__> yeah... my bad. but i really need my computer to work
[01:07] <ari_stress> intelikey: on the proxy server, try to dig www.ubuntu.com
[01:08] <ari_stress> intelikey: let's make sure it;'s working on the proxy server
[01:08] <intelikey> ari_stress i'm talking to you on it... i think it works
[01:08] <ari_stress> ok
[01:08] <jareth_> defrysk: i installed flash since breezy days without trouble via apt. No mistake on my side.. Use also medibuntu repos..
[01:08] <ari_stress> intelikey: you sure ip_forward = 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf?
[01:09] <intelikey> cat /etc/sysctl.conf
[01:09] <intelikey> net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
[01:09] <defrysk> jareth_, locate install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[01:09] <defrysk> then remove it
[01:09] <defrysk> jareth_, locate is a search command
[01:09] <intelikey> ari_stress but i may need to activate that somehow.  it's probably not automatic either
[01:09] <ari_stress> intelikey: try sysctl -a (to reload it)
[01:10] <intelikey> k
[01:10] <ari_stress> ups wrong
[01:10] <ari_stress> intelikey: it's sysctl -p
[01:10] <intelikey> still no change
[01:10] <jareth_> defrysk: i already did after i did apt-get autoremove nonfree-flashplugin. removed download files from /var/cache/apt/, afterwards i did a apt-get install nonfree-flashplgin...
[01:10] <jareth_> defrysk: what's wrong?
[01:11] <ari_stress> intelikey: let me google for you
[01:11] <Catoptromancy> aptitude instead of ap-get
[01:11] <intelikey> ari_stress   ;/
[01:11] <defrysk> jareth_, install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz has an md5sum mismatch , so it has to be removed and redownloaded
[01:11] <jareth_> maybe someone should try to reproduce this?
[01:12] <Catoptromancy> shouldnt need a .tar to install flash
[01:12] <nafik> hi, i've got an issue - when i try to connect via xchat-gnome or xchat (both IRC clients) to the server irc.quakenet.org - i got a message "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" in a terminal and IRC client exit.... log into other servers is ok... log into server irc.quakenet.org with an other IRC client (for example LorstIRC) is ok... do you have an idea?
[01:12] <jareth_> defrysk: i did that for already 5 times now !
[01:12] <Catoptromancy> im watch flash right now and never downloaded a .tar
[01:12] <defrysk> jareth_, with the rm command ?
[01:12] <jareth_> yep
[01:12] <defrysk> Catoptromancy, you are clueless
[01:12] <JosefK> is anyone else seeing lots of "/usr/share/fonts: failed to write cache" errors trying to dist-upgrade a fresh Feisty install?
[01:12] <JosefK> it's blocking 3/4 of the packages in the update that depend on it :/
[01:13] <jareth_> when downloading the .deb, tarball is downloaded and that refuses to install for me...
[01:13] <yu31g7> Anyone willing to help me with a quick file replacement via the command line?
[01:13] <yu31g7> I sort of messed with xorg.config and crashed X
[01:13] <philipsmith> How do I change the default directory for the "file search" tool that is under Places > Search for FIles ?? Thanks! Phil Smith, Duluth, GA
[01:13] <intelikey> yu31g7 cp file /dest/filename
[01:13] <yu31g7> And whilst I have a backup, I'm clueless as to how to replace the original file again
[01:13] <defrysk> jareth_, maybe the connection of the link used by the package is poor so it might be wise to try again tomorrow
[01:14] <CheesyMonkey> yu31g7, It will be sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:14] <dron> hi, people! I have a problem: how I can adjust my keyboard's hot keys for start amarok?
[01:14] <CheesyMonkey> yu31g7, Or whatever you named your backup :)
[01:14] <yu31g7> Okay, sounds good
[01:14] <jareth_> defrysk: i can live without flash for a few more days.. thanks for your advise <:)
[01:14] <yu31g7> Thank yo
[01:14] <yu31g7> That's actually exactly what the backup is called
[01:14] <defrysk> jareth_, good luck
[01:14] <ari_stress> intelikey: this is it :) http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[01:14] <jareth_> defrysk: :)
[01:14] <intelikey> yu31g7 sudo cp /path/to/backup.xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:15] <intelikey> ari_stress looking
[01:15] <jareth_> defrysk: otherwise i do it oldefashioned way.. i'll see...
[01:15] <gutsytrials> Hi, my grub directory is on /dev/sdc2, but grub is not working.
[01:16] <nafik>  hi, i've got an issue - when i try to connect via xchat-gnome or xchat (both IRC clients) to the server irc.quakenet.org - i got a message "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" in a terminal and IRC client exit.... log into other servers is ok... log into server irc.quakenet.org with an other IRC client (for example LorstIRC) is ok... do you have an idea?
[01:16] <ari_stress> intelikey: i think you might want to replace ethX with ppp0
[01:16] <intelikey> ari_stress not realy an option on a server with dialup internet
[01:16] <intelikey> ari_stress did i miss something ?    the link said install firestarter
[01:17] <ari_stress> what?
[01:17] <ari_stress> intelikey: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[01:17] <gutsytrials> I'm trying to fix my grub, but it says "Could not find device for /boot"
[01:17] <gutsytrials> Any ideas?
[01:18] <ari_stress> intelikey: firestarter is a firewall script that can do internet sharing too
[01:18] <ari_stress> you can use it if you want
[01:18] <intelikey> ari_stress no. that's what i was saying    i can't really install firestarter  too many deps
[01:20] <ledemente> I was looking for a GBA/GBC emulator for ubuntu (with a graphical frontend) the enables use of GameShark codes. Any help?
[01:20] <leszek> visualboy is a good choice
[01:21] <yu31g7> Excellent!
[01:21] <minerva> ola
[01:21] <yu31g7> xorg.conf is replaced as requred.
[01:21] <yu31g7> Thanks to everyone that helped out:)
[01:21] <intelikey> ari_stress i dl'd that exact page and did all that including the installing of the dnsmasq and stuff   before i came in here and asked...  still no joy.   but thanks for all the fish,   it'll make good eating if nothing else  :)
[01:22] <gutsytrials> I changed the flag in gparted to boot, will that do it?
[01:22] <intelikey> gutsytrials you are in the wrong channel i think   #ubuntu+1
[01:22] <dissection> I have an odd problem with Mozilla Firefox. Sometimes it starts creating several windows (blank page). Yesterday it created like 60 windows and I had to use killall. It happened again today. What could have caused that?
[01:23] <ari_stress> intelikey: just take it easy, sooner or later you'll be able to set it up
[01:23] <ledemente> leszek: it doesn't allow Gamshark though
[01:23] <gutsytrials> I'm over there, too, but it's really just a grub problem, so....
[01:23] <simon__> everything works fine again
[01:23] <simon__> thx for all help
[01:25] <intelikey> ari_stress many thanks for the patience    and help.
[01:25] <ari_stress> intelikey: you;re welcome :)
[01:25] <stuart_> is the only diff between xubuntu and ubuntu, xfce and gnome?
[01:25] <ari_stress> i'm happy for your success
[01:26] <stuart_> or is the core different as well? because my BIOS battery died and i've noticed xubuntu makes a bigger fuss out of it than ubuntu
[01:27] <crolle17> i made the following: i removed the current svn-package and then installed again. but now i get the message: "package subversion is not available; but is referenced by another package. that could mean that a package is too old or only available from another source. E: package subversion has not installationcandidate"
[01:27] <crolle17> can somebody please help me.
[01:27] <Bonzodog> I need some help with nfs
[01:27] <kaslepro> can someone please tell me how to install my bcm43xx network card? please take it slow... i'm a newbie
[01:28] <xusamuel> my x window always crash. I need some help
[01:28] <Bonzodog> I have a laptop with feisty on, and a desktop with Zenwalk (read:Slackware) on it
[01:29] <Bonzodog> I have the zenwalk machine exporting my home dir as the server
[01:29] <gutsytrials> OK, in Nautilus, disk-3 is my boot partition, how do I find out what it's /dev/sdx is?
[01:29] <ari_stress> gutsytrials: sudo mount
[01:29] <cewEk> dienda
[01:30] <Phydoux> kaslepro, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Edgy   Go as slow as you need to...
[01:30] <gutsytrials> thanks!
[01:30] <gutsytrials> Now how do I fix the grub that is on /dev/hda3?
[01:30] <ari_stress> gutsytrials: u mean the grub is broken?
[01:31] <gutsytrials> yes.
[01:31] <gutsytrials> Error 22.
[01:31] <crolle17> svn-package-expert needed.
[01:31] <ari_stress> gutsytrials: how come it broke? can u tell
[01:31] <hellsing> what package that contain gnome menu editor ?
[01:31] <gutsytrials> I installed a new version of Ubuntu (64bit)
[01:32] <ari_stress> and?
[01:32] <gutsytrials> hellsing: system preferences main menu.
[01:32] <gutsytrials> And now I get Error 22
[01:33] <ari_stress> gutsytrials: so, it's not bootable now?
[01:33] <gutsytrials> I think that is the problem.
[01:33] <gutsytrials> maybe it is not mounting as /boot or something
[01:33] <gutsytrials> I have gparted open.
[01:34] <hellsing> i think i miss the package, it don't show
[01:35] <gutsytrials> if I change the flag to boot in gparted will that fix it?
[01:35] <ari_stress> gutsytrials: so you're using a live cd to inspect the drive. well, you can boot with the cd and enter rescue mode, from it, you can try grub-install /dev/sda
[01:35] <odat> anyone here familiar with banshee?
[01:36] <hellsing> what package i must install to get system preferences main menu
[01:37] <gutsytrials> I tried that already, but I think it is not mounting as the boot drive.
[01:37] <leszek> hellsing, what ? the gnome System panel window ? Or the SLED Main Menu ?
[01:39] <hellsing> leszek, the gnome System panel window.
[01:39] <leszek> hellsing, it is installed already in feisty
[01:40] <hellsing> i am installing gnome manually, i am using ubuntu server installation...
[01:40] <leszek> hellsing, ah hmm... wait a sec
[01:40] <HEP85> hellsing: /usr/bin/python -OOt /usr/bin/alacarte
[01:40] <Pici> hellsing: if you install the ubuntu-desktop package it will include everything you need. Unless for some reason you dont want to do that.
[01:41] <mak_> HI Guys
[01:41] <HEP85> hellsing: package "alacarte"
[01:41] <mak_> Iam new to UBUNTU and Linux..
[01:41] <gcw|solurity> What package has the 32-bit compatibility libraries (for feisty)
[01:41] <gcw|solurity> mak_: wassup?
[01:41] <leszek> hellsing, it is gnome-control-center isn't it that what you are searching for ?
[01:42] <HEP85> gcw|solurity: ia32-libs + linux32
[01:42] <mak_> I want to do some programming (web development).
[01:42] <gcw|solurity> HEP85: thx
[01:42] <mak_> can you tell me, where to start in Linux.
[01:42] <hellsing> leszek, i have already install it
[01:42] <gcw|solurity> mak_: try to be more specific
[01:43] <hellsing> how to edit the main menu manually via texteditor...
[01:43] <mak_> I mean, I want to learn some programming langague in linux.
[01:43] <mak_> I don't know much about linux, so where should i start ..
[01:43] <Catoptromancy> mak_, start with shells
[01:43] <hellsing> alacarte had show me something wrong
[01:43] <liquiddoom> mak_: try shellscripts
[01:43] <Catoptromancy> heh
[01:43] <yellow_chicken> mak_: learn bash, or perl
[01:43] <liquiddoom> mak_: they're simple, but fairly powerful
[01:44] <liquiddoom> Speaking of which
[01:44] <mak_> but what is the use of those bash and perl.
[01:44] <Zamber> mak_ scripting. You can automate a lot of things with it
[01:44] <Frogzoo> !docs | mak_
[01:44] <ubotu> mak_: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[01:44] <gcw|solurity> mak_: Bash is a shell (think of command.com from dos or cmd.exe from NT) and it's very powerful both for moving around a system and for scripting/programming
[01:45] <mak_> ok..thanks..
[01:45] <liquiddoom> What's the best way to make logfiles?
[01:45] <yellow_chicken> mak_: for web stuff, perl is nice with cgi
[01:45] <liquiddoom> Can I simply write to the file in /var/log, or should I use some daemon or command?
[01:45] <Catoptromancy> < logfile anyname.txt
[01:45] <Catoptromancy> i think
[01:45] <liquiddoom> I'll check
[01:45] <HEP85> what have bash scripts to do with web development?
[01:45] <gcw|solurity> liquiddoom is asking about "logs" ;-)
[01:46] <Catoptromancy> liquiddoom, it logs the termnail for the command
[01:46] <Catoptromancy> might not be what you need
[01:46] <liquiddoom> Okay, I found logsave
[01:46] <liquiddoom> seems like it'll work.
[01:47] <liquiddoom> meh, I'll just use >>
[01:49] <hellsing> my application menu, show nothing even i have revert it in alacarte. what's wrong is it.
[01:50] <Scabdates> can someone please help me?
[01:50] <Scabdates> i'm having major trouble
[01:51] <liquiddoom> !ask | Scabdates
[01:51] <ubotu> Scabdates: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:52] <Scabdates> I have a 200gb Western Digital Hard drive. I only have XP installed on it but i want to dual boot with ubuntu 7.04. problem is, i'm trying to make a partition with partitionexpert, i have 140gb free, but i cant make the partiton any bigger than 7mb
[01:52] <steven_> hi
[01:52] <liquiddoom> Scabdates: Use gparted on the ubntu cd
[01:52] <liquiddoom> Scabdates: Or when installing ubuntu, use the partitioner
[01:53] <liquiddoom> !dualboot | Scabdates
[01:53] <ubotu> Scabdates: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[01:53] <HEP85> Scabdates: or try gparted livecd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[01:53] <stuart_> what's the command to run shell if i want to add a launcher on my desktop?
[01:53] <x_> dy ... i have problem with SOUND ... anyone can help me ?!
 gnome-terminal
[01:53] <stuart_> liquiddoom, is it the same if i'm using xfce?
[01:53] <Scabdates> i tried
[01:53] <steven_> i've 2 PCs connected via a crossed cable, ive installed dnsmasq on one of these and configured eth0 for static ip, on the other i've configured eth0 for dhcp lease, but it doesn't work, i receive no dhcp offers
[01:53] <Scabdates> it wont let me make partitions bigger than 7mb
[01:53] <liquiddoom> stuart_: no, I'm not sure what xfce uses
[01:54] <stuart_> k
[01:54] <whatspy> hi folks, some package is marked for installation by aptitude, but evidence shows it's already installed (I'm using it everyday!) . so everytime I do my updates I'm getting an error because of this, ever since a power outage occured during an update... how can I fix this ?
[01:54] <x_> who can help me about Sound card ?!
[01:54] <liquiddoom> stuart_: try this in your shell: echo $TERM
[01:54] <stuart_> i'm downoading ubuntu anyawys. a little bored of xubuntu
[01:54] <liquiddoom> stuart_: That should tell you what terminal you're running
[01:54] <stuart_> liquiddoom, xterm
[01:54] <Scabdates> any ideas?
[01:55] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Then make a launcher for that
[01:55] <stuart_> liquiddoom, cool. works. thanks!
[01:55] <liquiddoom> stuart_: also, to install the ubuntu bits, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:55] <x_> i have no sound in linux , how i can install sound card devices ?!
[01:55] <liquiddoom> !alsa | x_
[01:55] <ubotu> x_: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:56] <Scabdates> i defragmented too, i dont know what's wrong :(
[01:56] <skulrid> Hello, I used an old ubuntu cd to recover the GRUB. I went to instalation mode chose the "/" and "/swap", and didnt format them, then thers a error and i continue to install grub, theres another error and I say OK, it intalls and I get the GRUB back but UBUNTU wont start... theres some mountin errors and stuf... anyone knows wath this is?
[01:56] <stuart_> liquiddoom, i don't know.. i think i wanna fresh install an ubuntu drive. xubuntu fusses way too much over my dead BIOS battery
[01:56] <stuart_> liquiddoom, is the core much different from ubuntu anyways? i think xubuntu's bootup is weird.
[01:57] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Same kernel, different desktop manager
[01:57] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Most of the base components are the same.
[01:57] <stuart_> liquiddoom, oh? that means i'm just missing out on gnome?
[01:57] <liquiddoom> stuart_: yep
[01:57] <stuart_> i feel weird because sound on xfce is a little muffled, and the bootup is really giving me crap. i thought it was the kernel
[01:57] <liquiddoom> stuart_: It installs gnome and a few gnome utilities
[01:58] <Scabdates> there doesn't seme to be a cause :(
[01:58] <liquiddoom> stuart_: What's going on with the bootup?
[01:58] <stuart_> but if that's the case, no point downloading fresh then
[01:59] <progress0r> my fonts on feisty just SUCK. I tried enabling the subpixel rendering and it appeared to do nothing. And ideas?
[01:59] <stuart_> liquiddoom, my BIOS battery is dead, so gnome usually just fails the clock check. but on xubuntu it makes a big fuss about checking my HD, rebooting after checking, and can't write fsck, etc.
[01:59] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Ah, so the hardware clock goes nuts
[01:59] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Set it to sync the time frequently
[02:00] <liquiddoom> stuart_: I think the command is time-admin
[02:00] <stuart_> liquiddoom, doesn't help. once i turn off the pc, it forgets.
[02:00] <liquiddoom> stuart_: hmm... would replacing the battery be hard?
[02:00] <Scabdates> well then...
[02:00] <stuart_> liquiddoom, perhaps. i have a freakin old pc. or maybe i'm just illiterate in that area
[02:01] <garethlaw> hello
[02:01] <garethlaw> hello?
[02:01] <liquiddoom> stuart_: look on the motherboard. It will generally be a button cell (looks like a silver nickel-sized button) or a battery pack
[02:01] <wiking> after system updating i have problem with sound device :( now I can hear music just in earphones
[02:01] <skulrid> is there a way to reeinstall UBUNTU without lossing all my files?? I cant load ubuntu but I need all my files
[02:02] <liquiddoom> stuart_: If it's a button cell, you can get a replacement easliy. Just write down the number you see on it, like "CR2032"
[02:02] <Scabdates> I have a 200gb hard drive. There is 140gb of free space. No matter what method I use, It only let's me partition 7mb which is clearly not enough for a dual boot, what is wrong?
[02:02] <jrib> skulrid: I would boot up a live cd, mount your partition and backup your files if you haven't already before doing anything else
[02:02] <dissection> Anyone here has had any problems using FileZilla FTP Client? It tries to upload the same file over and over again
[02:03] <stuart_> liquiddoom, is it supposed to be a size of a thumb button cell?
[02:03] <skulrid> jrib can u explain that better please?
[02:03] <erUSUL__> dissection: try with gftp (instaled by default iirc)
[02:03] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Yeah.
[02:03] <dissection> erUSUL__: Is that the CLI based one?
[02:04] <wiking> after system updating i have problem with sound device :( now I can hear music just in earphones. Can i "update" it back???
[02:04] <dissection> !gftp
[02:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:04] <erUSUL> dissection: nope it has GUI
[02:04] <jrib> skulrid: ok, if you put the desktop cd in your drive and boot your system, you should end up with a working operating system running from the CD.  Then mount the partition your files are on and copy them to removable media or some other safe place
[02:05] <Scabdates> *Cries* no ubuntu for scabdates ?
[02:05] <skulrid> [jrib] : oh I see. the problem is there isnt that option in my cds..
[02:05] <liquiddoom> Scabdates: I wasn't exactly following, but it won't work in gparted?
[02:05] <jrib> skulrid: what option?
[02:05] <EnkeleiD> hello any soft for ubuntu to remote my pc from the internet?
[02:05] <skulrid> [jrib] : to end up with a working operating system running from the CD
[02:06] <EnkeleiD> hello any soft for ubuntu to remote my pc from the internet , and from windows machines too?
[02:06] <free-radical> hi ppl
[02:06] <erUSUL> !info gftp | dissection
[02:06] <jrib> skulrid: what version of ubuntu?
[02:06] <liquiddoom> !vnc | EnkeleiD
[02:06] <ubotu> dissection: gftp: X/GTK+ FTP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.18-16ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 44 kB, installed size 76 kB
[02:06] <ubotu> EnkeleiD: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[02:06] <free-radical> when using NetworkManager, is there a way to handle ifup/ifdown events?
[02:06] <stuart_> well blimey
[02:06] <Scabdates> liquiddoom: I tried using Ubuntu's built in partioner, and it sorta almost worked but then it forze, and after i restarted i didnt have access to resize the main partition any longer. i also tried making a partition in PartitionMagic from the 140gb of free space i have on this HDD
[02:06] <stuart_> liquiddoom, it is cr2032
[02:06] <free-radical> i want to kill or restart my pidgin, whenever internet connection is loosed or established
[02:06] <EnkeleiD> vnc is a client
[02:06] <skulrid> [jrib] : I dont know... but this one is kinda old... theres only boot or server boot, and a more recent version like crashes when I choose start or install
[02:07] <stuart_> liquiddoom, do they sell them everywhere? cheap?
[02:07] <free-radical> anybody an idea?
[02:07] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Yep. If you live in the US, try a radioshack or such
[02:07] <stuart_> not in US, sadly.
[02:07] <zweiundzwei> hi, i'd like to have ubuntu open the terminal and execute "md5check [file.md5] " when clicking on file.md5. how do i do that?
[02:07] <stuart_> if i were in the US the first thing i'd do is find myself an MMA gym
[02:07] <stuart_> will try to get a hold of one. thanks.
[02:07] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Look anywhere you can get batteries
[02:07] <dissection> erUSUL: Thank you. I'm installing it :)
[02:08] <jrib> skulrid: well anything after 6.06 dapper will have a desktop cd that is both the install and live system.  Burn one of those and try it.  If that doesn't work, try something like knoppix
[02:08] <Daverocks> free-radical: you could have a shell script running in the background checking network connectivity, and if it can't get on to the internet, it can kill the pidgin process
[02:08] <liquiddoom> stuart_: You can get them online cheap if you don't see any locally
[02:08] <skulrid> [jrib] : ok thnks im gonna try that
[02:08] <Scabdates> liquiddoom: i just can't figure it out. there's no reason i shouldn't be able to take 30gb of free space from my HD and make a new partition with it?
[02:08] <Daverocks> free-radical: but in my experience pidgin just keeps trying to reconnect... when my internet comes back, pidgin connects back again
[02:08] <stuart_> liquiddoom, how do i go about taking it out anyways. it seems fastened
[02:08] <free-radical> Daverocks: hm okay, but i want to kill pidgin _before_ connection will be terminated
[02:09] <liquiddoom> Scabdates: Start up the cd and run "gksudo gparted"
[02:09] <Daverocks> free-radical: so you're terminating the connection?
[02:09] <stuart_> fastened by a black rubber thing
[02:09] <free-radical> Daverocks: the main problem is, i use suspend very excessively and i want my pidgin to close the icq connections before suspending
[02:09] <jrib> skulrid: what happens when you try to load up ubuntu anyway?
[02:09] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Generally, you pry it out carefully.
[02:09] <Daverocks> free-radical: make killing pidgin part of your suspend script
[02:09] <EnkeleiD> hello any software server for ubuntu to remote my pc from the internet , and from windows machines too?
[02:09] <stuart_> liquiddoom, oh. will try
[02:09] <Daverocks> free-radical: ah, this is ubuntu, there's a suspend button... heh...
[02:09] <free-radical> Daverocks: and where can i find that script?
[02:09] <liquiddoom> stuart_: Use something like a screwdriver and go up under the clip, and wedge the battery out
[02:09] <jrib> EnkeleiD: like ssh?
[02:10] <stuart_> cool. gotta get a battery first
[02:10] <free-radical> Daverocks: some days ago, in my gentoo system, in fact i did it that way
[02:10] <Daverocks> free-radical: yeah, ubuntu is more difficult to hack on
[02:10] <liquiddoom> free-radical: how about this
[02:11] <skulrid> [jrib] : FIrst I can see ubuntu logo and the 2 first steps (of the OS loading) are OK then it turns black and it says mkdir: cannot creat directory.... read only fulesystem, ant then it takes loads of time to load the hardware drives and ends up with lots of mouting erros and stuff...
[02:11] <free-radical> how do other people solve the problems with pidgin and suspend?
[02:11] <liquiddoom> free-radical: add a line to /etc/interfaces or whatever the NIC file is
[02:11] <EnkeleiD> jrib graphical
[02:11] <EnkeleiD> jrib graphical like ubuntu
[02:11] <EnkeleiD> :)
[02:11] <Daverocks> liquiddoom: yah i was thinking that as well
[02:11] <jrib> !vnc > EnkeleiD (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:11] <jrib> skulrid: what if you choose "recovery mode" at the grub menu?
[02:11] <liquiddoom> free-radical: Okay, found it
[02:11] <EnkeleiD> i have seen it but it is a client isnt?
[02:12] <free-radical> liquiddoom: hm, but that works with NetworkManager?
[02:12] <KI4IKL> I have the second life folder on my desktop. I run second life from just clicking on a script in there, how can I set a launcher on my desktop to cd to that directory, then run that file....btw it's a ./ file
[02:12] <skulrid> jrib basicly the same thing... it wont start
[02:12] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: make a symbolic link
[02:12] <liquiddoom> free-radical: Edit /etc/network/interfaces and add a line "up pidgin" and "down killall pidgin"
[02:12] <KI4IKL> a what?
[02:13] <jrib> EnkeleiD: ubuntu has several vnc servers in the repositories.  You even have system -> administration -> remote desktop  by default
[02:13] <liquiddoom> free-radical: It should work with the NetworkManager.
[02:13] <Daverocks> actually, it might actually be better if you cd'd to the directory, it might need it as the working directory
[02:13] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: ^^
[02:13] <KI4IKL> yeah, but how do I make a launcher that cd's to the directory?
[02:13] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: make a simple bash script on your desktop, "cd secondlifefolder/ && ./secondlife"
[02:14] <MattJ> KI4IKL, where do you want the launcher?
[02:14] <EnkeleiD> krfb?
[02:14] <free-radical> liquiddoom: kk, i'll test that, thanks a lot
[02:14] <KI4IKL> thanks Daverocks
[02:14] <liquiddoom> free-radical: Don't forget to add it to the proper interface section
[02:15] <Newbie_Dude> I am trying to make a launcher/shortcut of a command I need to run from terminal. I need to type "wine D4S.exe" and I have to type that in a particular folder "My Downloads" ... Can this be done with a launcher/shortcut?
[02:15] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: no problem, don't forget to put "#!/bin/bash" as the first line and set it executable..
[02:15] <skulrid> jrib shalll i download 6.06 or 7.04?
[02:15] <free-radical> liquiddoom: i cant recognize any sections here?!
[02:15] <liquiddoom> free-radical: ah
[02:15] <jrib> skulrid: I would go with 7.04
[02:15] <skulrid> [jrib] : ok
[02:15] <liquiddoom> free-radical: you see where it says things like "iface eth1" and such
[02:15] <logixoul> Hi. Trying to install Feisty. The installer window suddenly disappeared at like 95%. Rebooting shows that GRUB isn't installed (I'm thrown into Windows). The installed Kubuntu partition doesn't have a grub/ dir under /boot, so I can't even install grub manually, it seems.
[02:16] <jrib> skulrid: recovery mode should give you more verbose information though
[02:16] <logixoul> Any hints please?
[02:16] <liquiddoom> free-radical: Add it under the interface you're using. If you're not sure which you're using, run ifconfig and see which one has an IP
[02:16] <KI4IKL> ack! I sent an important file to the trash and it's gone, how can I recover it???
[02:16] <free-radical> liquiddoom: yes, i see that "iface eth1 inet dhcp"
[02:16] <jrib> KI4IKL: "it's gone" means you deleted it, or?
[02:16] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: if it's just in the trash, you can just drag it out again
[02:17] <KI4IKL> I looked in my trash folder...and it's not there
[02:17] <free-radical> liquiddoom: and here, i have to write "iface eht1 inet dhcp up pidgin" or what is the syntax here?
[02:17] <liquiddoom> <free-radical
[02:17] <liquiddoom> free-radical: I'll pastebin what to write
[02:17] <Daverocks> KI4IKL: k, how did you delete it? shift-delete in nautilus, rm from bash, etc?
[02:17] <radoe> KI4IKL: Unless you have a backup its gone forever then.
[02:18] <KI4IKL> I right clicked and clicked move to trash
[02:18] <free-radical> liquiddoom: i dont know so much about that irc and pastebin stuff :(
[02:18] <liquiddoom> free-radical: I'm just gonna send you a link which will show you what to write
[02:18] <jrib> KI4IKL: you can try: sudo updatedb && locate NAME_OF_YOUR_FILE
[02:18] <fevel> hello
[02:18] <Daverocks> free-radical: basically he/she will give you a link to a website which has text on it, that he/she posted
[02:18] <free-radical> liquiddoom: yes, kk, give me that link ^^
[02:25] (LuitvD/#ubuntu) hm, I guess I should have this channel, or the RT2x00 Project channel
[02:26] (teenbeat2007/#ubuntu) cant get it back in sound, i had sound half an hour ago , but not anymore
[02:26] (skieros/#ubuntu) hello
[02:26] (erUSUL/#ubuntu) aricz: gpm
[02:26] (skieros/#ubuntu) whats he best movie player for ubuntu?
[02:27] <aricz> erUSUL : ahh, excellent, thank you:)
[02:27] <skieros> ?
[02:27] <Daverocks> skieros: people's opinions of what "the best" is will vary
[02:27] <skieros> well the most common used lest say
[02:27] <radoe> Kevin4381: ATI Binary Drivers and "Desktop effects" do not work well together, as they are missing some needed extensions. You need to setup Xgl for that. For a 9800Pro you should stick with Xorgs radeon driver.
[02:27] <skieros> for exampel what do you use?
[02:28] <Daverocks> skieros: well in ubuntu, Totem would have to be one of the most popular, since it's the default movie player
[02:28] <skieros> another one?
[02:28] <skieros> skieros@dell:~$ sudo apt-get install mplayer
[02:28] <skieros> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[02:28] <radoe> skieros: (g)xine or vlc.
[02:28] <lore_> Daverocks: yes...
[02:28] <skieros> why doent it let me download it?
[02:28] <Daverocks> skieros: make sure you don't have something else using the apt database (e.g. synaptic)
[02:29] <skieros> a yes synaptic is updating
[02:29] <radoe> skieros: some other package manager frontend (synaptic or adept is open)
[02:29] <Daverocks> skieros: wait for it to finish
[02:29] <skieros> alright
[02:29] <Daverocks> lore_: let me check on my ubuntu system
[02:29] <taxman> skieros: only one process can use the package database at once
[02:29] <lore_> Daverocks: ok!
[02:29] <aricz> Why is the ncurses-colors wrong in ubuntu but not on other distros ?
[02:29] <skieros> i see, you guys also sue v7.04 right?
[02:29] <taxman> yes
[02:29] <skieros> s/sue/use/
[02:30] <Kevin4381> radoe; I'm not quite sure what you mean ...
[02:30] <jrib> aricz: huh?
[02:30] <Cplunsford> hey anyone know what the wine and the cedaga channels are?
[02:30] <Daverocks> skieros: i'm not using ubuntu at the moment, but i've got dapper on another box (yah i know i shoud upgrade but it's LTS :P)
[02:30] <Kevin4381> radoe:  - I downloaded ATI's drivers (after testing desktop effects without them--and it didn't work) ..
[02:30] <Cplunsford> anyone?
[02:30] <aricz> jrib : yeah, they're showing wrong colors..
[02:30] <skieros> LTS stands for linux from scratch right?
[02:30] <leszek> LOL
[02:30] <liquiddoom> long term support
[02:31] <jrib> aricz: you have to be more specific
[02:31] <liquiddoom> LFS is linux from scratch
[02:31] <jrib> skieros: lfs
[02:31] <skieros> loool sorry!
[02:31] <revilodraw> heellooo how do i check if ipv6 is disabled... there is a terminal command
[02:31] <Cplunsford> LFS
[02:31] <aricz> jrib : well, there seems to be some problems with the TERM=linux .. playing games that uses ncurses (or for that matter, the irc-client BitchX) shows the wrong colors
[02:31] <Daverocks> revilodraw: do a "ifconfig" and see if there's a inet6 addr or not
[02:31] <taxman> Cplunsford: did you check their websites? or you can do a channel search
[02:31] <skieros> mpalyer will eb able to handle mp3 and audio fiels as well corret?
[02:31] <aricz> jrib : for some reason it only uses 7 maincolors for 16 colors ..
[02:31] <radoe> Kevin4381: ATI's driver does not work out if the box for desktop effects (beryl or compiz) as it is missing the "Composite extension". You need another X-Server (Xgl) to get it working.
[02:32] <Cplunsford> taxman, not really I figured some one here would know'
[02:32] <Cplunsford> im looking it up atm actually
[02:32] <Daverocks> lore_: lol eclipse has a lot of dependencies
[02:32] <alaQ> revilodraw: ifconfig | grep inet6
[02:32] <jrib> aricz: what terminal emulator are you using?
[02:32] <taxman> no its long term support
[02:32] <Kevin4381> thanks radoe; I can continue using the ATI drivers I downloaded and installed then.. and just install Xgl?
[02:32] <lore_> Daverocks: yes, a LOT :)
[02:32] <aricz> jrib : how do I find out about that? TERM=linux .. that's all I know
[02:32] <aricz> jrib : :)
[02:33] <Cplunsford> join #winehq
[02:33] <radoe> Kevin4381: to avoid this, use the original radeon driver comming with Ubuntu, it should support effects and 3D acceleration on your 9800pro
[02:33] <Cplunsford> woops
[02:33] <jrib> aricz: what program do you use to get a terminal?
[02:33] <aricz> jrib : how do I find out?
[02:33] <jim> why can I not get CGI.pm installed on apache2 ?
[02:33] <Some_Person> Can I disable the GRUB menu?
[02:33] <aricz> jrib : I'm in virtual console..
[02:33] <jrib> aricz: ah
[02:33] <aricz> jrib : "ordinary" console ..
[02:34] <stuart_> is there an MSN client for linux that will allow pics, filesharing, etc?
[02:34] <revilodraw> alaQ: ifconfig | grep inet6    ... no news is good news right?
[02:34] <Daverocks> lore_: yeah, just install eclipse and it'll handle all the dependencies
[02:34] <magnetron> stuart_: try amsn
[02:34] <aricz> jrib : so, you wouldn't know more about this ?
[02:34] <Daverocks> revilodraw: yeah, means ipv6 is disabled
[02:34] <taxman> Some_Person: why would you want to? Then you couldn't boot other OS's
[02:34] <alaQ> revilodraw: yeah, if you want it disabled.
[02:35] <stuart_> magnetron, thanks. will do.
[02:35] <jrib> aricz: nope, not offhand
[02:35] <Some_Person> taxman: I use Vista's bootloader for my 4 os's
[02:35] <Daverocks> stuart_: amsn is good, pidgin also does what you want
[02:35] <fevel> I installed ie4linux but cant type anything in the url fiels??
[02:35] <nomad111> how can i get the newer style 'start' (so to speak) menu in ubuntu
[02:35] <nomad111> similar to the one in linux mint
[02:35] <Some_Person> taxman: i don't like going through 2 menus to load ubuntu
[02:35] <dissection> Hi, my friend wants to know how he can check if he's using KDE or GNOME. I think he's using a different distro
[02:35] <skieros> if i downlaod mpalyer will it have all common codecs indise it? becaus totem doeasen play even a simple mp3
[02:35] <stuart_> oh yeah, plan to install neverwinter nights with wine later, how'd i know if i installed nvidia properly?
[02:35] <nomad111> what package should i download
[02:35] <Daverocks> Some_Person: have vista overwrite grub on the MBR with its own bootloader
[02:35] <fevel> there is an h there and nothing I type works....did anybody have the same problem??
[02:35] <revilodraw> alaQ: stupid question maybe, but do i want it disabled?
[02:36] <Daverocks> Some_Person: like, the loader that loads the vista boot loader menu :P
[02:36] <Some_Person> Daverocks: Vista is in the MBR
[02:36] <taxman> Some_Person: makes sense. I can't recall how, but the offical grub docs would tell you. OR what Daverocks said
[02:36] <radoe> skieros: just install the missing (restricted) codecs for use with totem.
[02:36] <Daverocks> Some_Person: ah right, you boot ubuntu from vista, ubuntu brings up its grub
[02:36] <skieros> will maplyer have them by default?
[02:36] <Some_Person> Daverocks: correct
[02:36] <Daverocks> Some_Person: that must mean grub is installed on the partition?
[02:36] <alaQ> revilodraw: I've not really noticed a difference running either way, because if it's not available, there's always ipv4 lurking about...
[02:36] <Daverocks> Some_Person: as opposed to the mbr
[02:36] <Some_Person> Daverocks: correct
[02:37] <Daverocks> skieros: yes, mplayer comes with everything
[02:37] <magnetron> dissection: compare http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Gnome-2.18-release_notes.png to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:SnapshotKDE37.png
[02:37] <skieros> cool
[02:38] <Some_Person> Daverocks: I have it working like I want, except I want to hide/remove the GRUB menu
[02:38] <ledemente> Hi all, I'm trying to get VMWare working and I find that it halts/aborts after: Unable to build the vmmon module.
[02:38] <revilodraw> alaQ: hmm i think its a little faster with ipv6 disabled (and thats y i wanted to check) but im pretyy sure windows connects to the internet server or whatever faster, but ubuntu seems to load the page faster
[02:38] <ledemente> It has other info, but I don't think I'd be allowed to paste it all.
[02:38] <Daverocks> Some_Person: i'm just thinking of ways to remove grub from the partition but i don't think that's easy
[02:38] <dick> test
[02:38] <nomad111> ah ye its called 'menu bar', so where can i get the new style menu bar as seen in this screenshot http://linuxmint.com/pictures/screenshots/cassandra/2.png
[02:38] <Daverocks> Some_Person: it's probably easier to set the timeout to like 0 or 1 second
[02:38] <taxman> Some_Person: I found it. http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/hiddenmenu.html#hiddenmenu if you want to go that route
[02:38] <awerner32> is there any program that anybody knows of that will over a network keep a networked folder recursively backup a folder on another compuer. that was worded horribly, a program that will make a folder on a server look identical to one on another computer on the network either automatically or with a click to update it
[02:38] <Some_Person> Daverocks: I want GRUB on the partition
[02:38] <Daverocks> Some_Person: right, because that's the only way ubuntu will boot :P
[02:39] <Daverocks> Some_Person: taxman's suggestion is good
[02:39] <Some_Person> taxman: that leaves the timer going, i don't want a countdown
[02:39] <Some_Person> Daverocks: correct
[02:39] <alaQ> revilodraw: it's technically not a difference of 'how fast can I go', but of 'how am I talking to you?'
[02:39] <taxman> but you can shorten the timer. That's right in the config file IIRC
[02:40] <LuitvD> how can I escape from a soft lockup?
[02:40] <LuitvD> or is that impossible?
[02:40] <mrpoundsign> awerner32: rsync over ssh?
[02:40] <revilodraw> alaQ: ok... a little lost, but i think i know what you mean... i am needed by the parentals, so thank you for your help.. bye
[02:40] <LuitvD> is it as irreversible as kernel panic or oops?
[02:40] <awerner32> ok, ssh is perfect thanks
[02:40] <alaQ> revilodraw: glad to help :)
[02:40] <mrpoundsign> awerner32: rsync... it uses ssh
[02:40] <awerner32> no no i understand that
[02:41] <taxman> LuitvD: depends on what's locked. If it's X windows, crtl-alt-backspace may exit X
[02:41] <mrpoundsign> awerner32: cool.
[02:41] <awerner32> i am saying that is a perfect way to do it because the server is already set up for that
[02:41] <Kevin4381> how can I check to see if I have xgl installed?
[02:41] <LuitvD> taxman: soft lockup of CPU#0
[02:41] <aricz> Uhm, how do I get rid of the UNI-support (fonts) in virtual console?
[02:41] <stuart_> i'm using geforce2 MX440, which package should i apt-get?
[02:41] <taxman> LuitvD: you got an error message saying that?
[02:41] <LuitvD> caused by a hanging kernel driver
[02:41] <Daverocks> LuitvD: a soft lockup is pretty much as bad as a hard lockup, i don't think it's easy to reverse
[02:42] <LuitvD> taxman: yes, my dmesg shows that info
[02:42] <Some_Person> !grub

[02:43] <tatters> been trying to upgrade to gutsy keep getting Failed to fetch http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/commercial/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[02:43] <LuitvD> the serialmonkey rt2x00 project doesn't have an IRC channel do they?
[02:43] <awerner32> ok thank you
[02:48] <dissection> Sometimes when I have several windows of the same application, like a few terminals for differnet things, they all get minimized to the same tab in the taskbar.. How do I prevent that from happening? In windows there's an option like minimize in a group for something like this
[02:48] <LuitvD> these are the dmesg lines produced after loading the rt61 driver: http://pastebin.ca/627594
[02:48] <aricz> Hi, anyone know how to DISABLE UTF-8 in virtual console?
[02:48] <LuitvD> I guess I should try the current CVS version
[02:49] <aricz> my fonts are garbled up here.. strange character
[02:49] <aricz> s
[02:49] <Daverocks> LuitvD: yeah, get those "drivers" out of your kernel asap, lol
[02:49] <erUSUL> LuitvD: you should report it as a bug either in launchpad or here http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB2/
[02:49] <LuitvD> Daverocks: good thing I already blacklisted it :)
[02:49] <taxman> dissection: I don't know, but did you know terminal can use tabs too? ctrl-shift-T
[02:50] <LuitvD> erUSUL: I have so many things that need to go on launchpad :P
[02:50] <stuart_> eh, i can't cut and paste from xterm?
[02:51] <LuitvD> Daverocks: if I hadn't blacklisted that driver it'd load at startup :P
[02:51] <keenen> I need some ubuntu installing help
[02:51] <Daverocks> LuitvD: heh
[02:51] <taxman> stuart_: you can it's just screwy, use your mouse's right click menu to cut and paste to term
[02:52] <Daverocks> keenen: ask
[02:52] <erUSUL> LuitvD: that's how open source gets better with help from her users ;)
[02:52] <ZombieWerewolf> im running kde and gnome side by side, and in kde i have compiz-fusion and gtk-window-manager  running (probably shouldn't do gtk-window-manager with kde but i do not know what else to use) and the 3d cube isn't working. The hotkeys are ctrl+alt+button1 but it just isn't working. How do I make the cube work?
[02:52] <taxman> keenen: ok, be specific
[02:52] <stuart_> taxman, i'm using xfce, and i can't even rightclick in xterm
[02:52] <jrib> stuart_: or ctrl-shift-c to copy and ctrl-shift-v to paste in a term, or just hilight what you want to copy and use middle click to paste
[02:52] <LuitvD> good thing I have two cores... lockup of CPU#0 doesn't stop CPU#1 from dumping my dmesg :)
[02:52] <ZombieWerewolf> note: all the other special window effects are working
[02:52] <keenen> I am running the ubuntu installer and the screen Faded black and all i see is the mouse
[02:52] <Daverocks> keenen: *faded* black? o_o
[02:52] <keenen> yea
[02:53] <keenen> >.>
[02:53] <keenen> <.<
[02:53] <Daverocks> keenen: uh, at what point in the installer?
[02:53] <stuart_> i can right click from the menu's Terminal, but my own xterm launcher doesnt allow me to right click
[02:53] <dissection> taxman: I don't want tab and I don't want them minimized together either. I want to disable it
[02:53] <keenen> copying files 52%
[02:53] <keenen> with dual boot of windows xp and i am scared it going to mess it up :P if grub is not fully installed
[02:54] <Daverocks> keenen: maybe screensaver? :P
[02:54] <keenen> lol thanks
[02:54] <jrib> dissection: right click on the window list and go to properties iirc
[02:54] <keenen> The screen server didn't go away when i was moving the mouse for a few mins :P
[02:54] <Daverocks> keenen: heh
[02:54] <stuart_> how do i see what commands the menu up tehre is using for apps?
[02:55] <HEP85> keenen: keypress should do then
[02:55] <Daverocks> keenen: also, you _should_ be fine with dual booting, but there's always a lot of anxiety the first time
[02:55] <stuart_> i can't right click on the menu in xfce
[02:55] <keenen> Dual boot works fine on my other PC's :P
[02:55] <keenen> i hope the same on my laptop
[02:55] <stuart_> and how'd i make a launcher for Terminal in xfce without using xterm because xterm doesn't allow me to cut and paste
[02:55] <taxman> dissection: right click on an empty space in the taskbar and select preferences. Check never group
[02:55] <jrib> stuart_: I can right click on "<xubuntu icon> Applications" and get an option to "edit menu"
[02:55] <Daverocks> keenen: ah well you're familiar with the process then
[02:55] <HEP85> keenen: it is very easy to fix xp on dual boot. not so easy to fix ubuntu
[02:55] <Daverocks> HEP85: depends what you stuff up :P
[02:56] <keenen> You think i can run beryl with 64 mb of video ram?
[02:56] <taxman> dissection: the only empty space I had was the far left close to the show desktop icon
[02:56] <Daverocks> keenen: yeah, beryl runs great on even low-end graphics cards
[02:56] <DerangedDingo> I have a quick question: Can anyone tell me what "mcop" is or is an abbreviation of?
[02:56] <eboxnet> hello ppl
[02:56] <Daverocks> keenen: which card?
[02:56] <HEP85> Daverocks: I mean reinstalling grub vs. using the windows xp cd and enter fixmbr in the repair console
[02:56] <keenen> Cool :D
[02:56] <dissection> taxman: I don't have "preferences" and I can't find never group
[02:56] <stuart_> jrib, still doesn't let me see what command Terminal is using
[02:56] <Daverocks> HEP85: in that sense, yeah
[02:56] <jrib> stuart_: xfce4-terminal
[02:56] <stuart_> jrib, woopee! thanks.
[02:56] <DerangedDingo> keenen: I'm running Compiz and have run Beryl on my Intel Integrated 64mb graphics controller from 2003
[02:57] <taxman> dissection: what desktop and ubuntu version are you running?
[02:57] <jrib> stuart_: you're right, I assumed it was like the one in GNOME
[02:57] <radoe> HEP85: its easy to fixup ubuntu to. You need some boot-CD, of course. I made a CD with only only grub on it for such cases.
[02:57] <dissection> taxman: 7.04 with GNOME
[02:58] <keenen> I have the smae card u have but its 2004
[02:58] <ashukmin> Hello.
[02:58] <stuart_> btw, which NVidia package should I use for Gefore2?
[02:58] <keenen> same*
[02:58] <stuart_> i have a feeling id idn't install mine correctly
[02:58] <Newbie_Dude> Where does Ubuntu keep all its fonts? I wanna try copying the "Sans" font into my Wine\Windows\ directory to see if I can get the same font there.
[02:58] <jrib> dissection: right click on the drag bar for the window list then
[02:58] <DerangedDingo> Newbie_Dude: /usr/share/fonts
[02:58] <taxman> dissection: you must not be right clicking in the right spot. Do you get a context menu when you right click on the bottom left of the screen
[02:59] <DerangedDingo> Newbie_Dude: GNOME keeps everything graphically related in /usr
[02:59] <Newbie_Dude> DerangedDingo: thanks!
[02:59] <tannerld> I just installed miro, but I can't play anything in it?
[02:59] <DerangedDingo> Well, Linux in general
[02:59] <dissection> taxman: I get Add to Panel, Properties, Delete this Panel, etc
[02:59] <HEP85> radoe: can't you use the livecd?
[03:00] <keenen> Can i run the burn effect on my intel 64 mb video ram card?
[03:00] <Newbie_Dude> DerangedDingo: bummer, it doesnt actually name the font file after the font name >_<
[03:00] <aricz> Well, bye bye ubuntu, thanks for all the help, but I'm gonna take a trip into the world of debian .. tatua :) Thanks for all the help from this great community. Bom !
[03:00] <taxman> dissection: that's what I get when I click on the top menubar, did you reverse them?
[03:00] <DerangedDingo> Newbie_Dude: that sucks. what about a search of your filesystem?
[03:01] <x_> hello everybody ... who knows how we can have a glass terminal ?!
[03:01] <radoe> HEP85: Grub on CD boots in like 2 seconds, why wait for an entire Live-CD just to fix grub then?
[03:01] <stuart_> hm, i underestimated linux
[03:01] <rdesh> hi
[03:01] <dissection> taxman: Yes but both bars give the same options when I rightclick
[03:01] <stuart_> the more i learn the more it rocks
[03:01] <Newbie_Dude> DerangedDingo: ok i'll search for "sans"
[03:02] <rdesh> is there a speed advantage if i compile my own kernel for ubuntu amd64?
[03:02] <keenen> I backup my grub :P and then i just made a live cd that just runs the commands i made it to do :P
[03:02] <awerner32> when you change the mount options in the gui with gnome does it change fstab or does it do it differently?
[03:02] <dissection> taxman: Its the first time I've seen them grouped. It had never done that before. Now all of a sudden they ungrouped by itself. I don't know how or why this is happening.
[03:02] <taxman> dissection: ok, with a blank taskbar I get that too. The only way I get the menu you need is when clicking very close to the icon on the lower left that minimizes everything to show the desktop
[03:02] <alaQ> Newbie_Dude: try creating a .fonts folder in your homedir and put them there.
[03:02] <DerangedDingo> x_: Open terminal, select "Edit", then "Profiles", then "Edit" in the new window, and go to the "Effects" tab
[03:02] <tego> i setup kubuntu -desktop I SEE MORE PROGRAM  ADD TO ME AND I WANNA KNOW HOW TO USE PROGRAM LIKE NETCUT EXE I CAN SETUP IT EASY  BUT CANT USE
[03:03] <alaQ> Newbie_Dude: IIRC, the X font server searches for fonts in the homedir too.
[03:03] <x_> DeragedDingo   thanks ... i'll check it now :)
[03:03] <keenen> alaQ: is there a font manger program i think i used it before? not sure :P
[03:03] <strabes> tego: You don't have to shout.
[03:03] <DerangedDingo> I have a quick question: Can anyone tell me what "mcop" is or is an abbreviation of? I was boring and installed KDE, and I'm trying to get rid of some configuration files it left over
[03:03] <HEP85> radoe: because you normally don't have grub on cd when you are installing a linux distro for the first time in your live
[03:03] <eBoxNet> lol
[03:03] <keenen> manger*
[03:03] <DerangedDingo> bored*
[03:03] <keenen> manager*
[03:03] <Newbie_Dude> alaQ: actually i'm trying to get the wonderful ubuntu font called "Sans" to work in Wine. But I think the fonts for Ubuntu are different than Windows...
[03:03] <Daverocks> tego: you mean, the netcut on windows that does arp spoofing?
[03:04] <taxman> DerangedDingo: google should be your friend :)
[03:04] <strabes> Newbie_Dude: if they're .ttf they should work
[03:04] <phrontist> how can I list user groups on a system?
[03:04] <DerangedDingo> okie doke
[03:04] <tego> YES DAVEROCKS
[03:04] <keenen> taxman: put that on the title on this chan :D
[03:04] <W9ZEB-Lars> Is there any reason when installing a second USB mouse the performance would completely tank?
[03:04] <eBoxNet> CAPS
[03:04] <strabes> Newbie_Dude: The fonts in ubuntu are .ttf files as well; they should work in windows
[03:04] <Daverocks> tego: well first off all turn off caps lock
[03:04] <dissection> taxman: That worked, thats :D
[03:04] <W9ZEB-Lars> the mouse performance that is.
[03:04] <alaQ> Newbie_Dude: any truetype fonts will work for both.
[03:04] <Daverocks> *of
[03:04] <taxman> dissection: np
[03:04] <tannerld> anybody able to play videos in miiro?
[03:04] <tatters> how do I find out what version of ubuntu I am running?
[03:04] <taxman> keenen: I don't have ops here, but good thought :)
[03:05] <strabes> tatters: system > about ubuntu
[03:05] <dissection> My screenshot: http://www.wotanist.com/Screenshot.png
[03:05] <W9ZEB-Lars> taxman: uname -a might tell you something
[03:05] <W9ZEB-Lars> taxman: sorry, wrong nick
[03:05] <W9ZEB-Lars> tatters: uname -a MIGHT tell you something.
[03:05] <taxman> W9ZEB-Lars: yeah and that doesn't tell you the ubuntu version
[03:05] <michael357> hey if you got disconnected and you are still in a channel
[03:05] <michael357> so that you can't take your own nickname back
[03:05] <taxman> I forgot the command line that does
[03:05] <Daverocks> tego: and for the arp spoofing, you can use very manual tools like arpoison, or easier-to-use ones such as arpspoof (from the dsniff suite), or ettercap
[03:05] <user1__> ugly
[03:06] <michael357> how do you get your nick back?
[03:06] <strabes> michael357: You should register with nickserv so that your nick is protected
[03:06] <taxman> michael357: /msg nickserv ghost username password
[03:06] <eBoxNet> michael357: use ghost command
[03:06] <x_> DerangedDingo thanks friend ... that worked :-)
[03:06] <user1__> how do i post a screenshot?
[03:06] <michael357> it is registered
[03:06] <michael357> ok
[03:06] <W9ZEB-Lars> tatters, taxman: cat /etc/issue
[03:06] <strabes> then you have to /nickserv identify password
[03:06] <W9ZEB-Lars> unless of course you've changed it.
[03:06] <strabes> or /msg nickserv identify password
[03:06] <keenen> Can 75hz warn out ur monitor faster? 60hz make your monitor last longer?
[03:06] <tego> THANKS MAN
[03:06] <radoe> HEP85: You are right, but for *me* grub-on-CD is just right (well, yes, back in 1994 when I installed my first linux system there was no grub at all and fixing booting problems always involved a prepared floppy  ;) )
[03:07] <taxman> strabes: when the nick is still logged in you need to ghost. That's what he was asking
[03:07] <tatters> oh,thnx got it cat /etc/issueUbuntu gutsy (development branch) \n \l
[03:07] <mikerose357> thank you that worked
[03:07] <lachlan> wow so many people :O
[03:07] <taxman> tatters: you probably should be running 7.04 instead
[03:07] <keenen> Can 75hz warn out ur monitor faster? 60hz make your monitor last longer?
[03:07] <strabes> taxman: oh ok cool
[03:07] <keenen> That i was thinking about all the time :P
[03:07] <liquiddoom> keenen: The difference should not be substantial
[03:08] <liquiddoom> keenen: Are you on a CRT?
[03:08] <Kulldor> the human eye has an effective refresh rate of 30Hz anyway
[03:08] <Kulldor> not exactly the same thing tho
[03:08] <genii> keenen Probably not some kind of noticeable difference
[03:08] <keenen> I have a AOC moniter not LED or anything super flat
[03:08] <Arcey> 60 hz on CRT gives me headache in 10 secs
[03:08] <strabes> Kulldor: yeah but if your refresh rate on your monitor sux then it will hurt your eyes, especially on a CRT
[03:08] <HEP85> radoe: yeah. if you often encounter boot problems it would be cool to have grub-on-cd lying around somewhere
[03:08] <tatters> taxman: I am ready for a fresh install so thought I would go out in style and glimpse the future for a while
[03:08] <Kulldor> really no way
[03:09] <lachlan> whats new in .10?
[03:09] <strabes> Kulldor: not "hurt" permanently but it will just not be pleasant to look at
[03:09] <genii> keenen: 60hz when you have fluorescent bulbs makes a strobe effect which causes headaches and sometimes epileptic seizures
[03:09] <taxman> tatters: that's fine but you shouldn't ask questions about the experimental versions in here. :)
[03:09] <keenen> so should i use 70hz?
[03:09] <keenen> 758
[03:09] <keenen> 75*
[03:09] <Kulldor> can you even get monitors to refresh at anything lower than 30hz (has only lcd's)
[03:09] <genii> Arcey: See my comment to keenen about 60hz :)
[03:09] <Arcey> if u are on a crt, and 60 hz hurts ur eyes, try higher values
[03:09] <Kulldor> *60hz
[03:09] <strabes> Kulldor: no
[03:10] <tatters> I did not know it was experimental version untill a moment ago ,this is not my box just brought it
[03:10] <Kulldor> ah k
[03:10] <royel> keenen: whatever refresh you like you should use, it makes no difference to any of us in here
[03:10] <marco> op'
[03:10] <keenen> I did 100hz on my dads HD LED tv and it broke  >.>
[03:10] <genii> keenen 72 or 75 should be fine
[03:10] <marco> i want pussy
[03:10] <Arcey> lol yah
[03:10] <Cplunsford> hey does anyone know how to blacklist a soundcard so that it does not get loaded at all?
[03:10] <Cplunsford> fore some reason Kmix will load my onboard soundcard first sometimes before my soundblaster and I won't get sound
[03:10] <eBoxNet> lol
[03:10] <Cplunsford> Anyone?
[03:10] <liquiddoom> !ffs | marco
[03:10] <ubotu> marco: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:10] <Arcey> u should check the manual of your monitor about max refresh rates
[03:10] <keenen> He didn't know who did it
[03:10] <keenen> or how it happin
[03:10] <dom> hey guys. how do i unmount a swap partition? i am currently using a live cd...
[03:10] <eBoxNet> marco download one
[03:10] <alaQ> Cplunsford: did you set cards with asoundconf?
[03:10] <tatters> didable onboard sound at the BIOS
[03:10] <taxman> tatters: ok, no biggie, just letting you know
[03:10] <marco> hello
[03:10] <radoe> HEP85: I always have one in my notebook carry case ;)
[03:10] <royel> marco: dont be a immature child in here, find some other irc channel to be ugly in
[03:11] <strabes> dom: on the live cd no actual partitions are mounted
[03:11] <Arcey> sudo umount /dev/sd...
[03:11] <marco> dont broke my balls
[03:11] <Cplunsford> alaQ, no I am runing kubuntu and did not mess with much sound configuration
[03:11] <Some_Person> if i add a menu item with alacarte, where does it put the .desktop file?
[03:11] <dom> strabes, but it is. its locked in gparted...
[03:11] <marco> bye
[03:11] <keenen> My laptop ubuntu installer trying to download packages and its not connect to the Internet O_o and it been doing it for a few mins now
[03:11] <strabes> dom: sorry, dunno
[03:11] <Cplunsford> alaQ: but I know the problem is the other soundcard will get loaded first sometimes and the system asusmes thats the one I am using
[03:12] <radoe> dom: swapoff
[03:12] <taxman> Cplunsford: right, so disable it in the bios
[03:12] <keenen> My laptop ubuntu installer trying to download packages and its not connect to the Internet O_o and it been doing it for a few mins now
[03:12] <keenen> how do i fix that :P
[03:12] <strabes> keenen: just let it go for awhile and eventually it will realize that it's not connected. What you should have done is unplugged your internet cord before you started the installer
[03:12] <taxman> keenen: don't try to dl packages? :)
[03:12] <alaQ> Cplunsford: you can specify which sound card to use.  In a terminal, type 'asoundconf list' to get the names of the cards, and 'asoundconf set-default-card name' to set the card as default
[03:12] <dom> radoe, nice... didnt see it ;)
[03:12] <strabes> keenen: are you behind a proxy or something?
[03:12] <Newbie_Dude> Can you guys recommend a Download Manager/Resumer? I tried Multiget but it seems really buggy.
[03:12] <gioeleb> hello
[03:12] <keenen> Fixed it :D i hit skip
[03:12] <Cplunsford> taxman, it is! linux tends to ignore my bios settings
[03:12] <Daverocks> Newbie_Dude: kget in kde
[03:12] <strabes> Newbie_Dude: do you use firefox? Use flashgot or downthemall. I recommend the latter
[03:13] <Cplunsford> alaQ let me try that
[03:13] <lachlan> how do i get java 1.5?
[03:13] <keenen> I hate proxy :P it to slow
[03:13] <gioeleb> does anybody remember the name of a java application for remote administration/supervision of machines presented on the ubuntu planet aggregator?
[03:13] <lachlan> vnc?
[03:13] <lachlan> ^_^
[03:14] <x_> is that posible to use windows fonts in linux ?! is yes , how ?!
[03:14] <alaQ> lachlan: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[03:14] <leszek> cu @ all
[03:14] <nomad111> has anyone installed compiz fusion
[03:14] <Cplunsford> i assume that would go 'asoundconf set-default-card Audigy2
[03:14] <lachlan> thank you ^_^
[03:14] <keenen> My dad took back his $3,000 LED hv tv that i broke >.>
[03:14] <dissection> ;D
[03:14] <keenen> hd*
[03:14] <alaQ> Cplunsford: yeah, provided that's the card you want to use.
[03:14] <eBoxNet> wine-doors?
[03:14] <ufuntu> hello does anyone knows how can i find my su passwd? i forgot it...
[03:14] <x_> Cplunsford  i have same problem with Audiogy 2 zs plotonium Pro
[03:15] <Daverocks> x_: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[03:15] <Daverocks> x_: (for your font question)
[03:15] <derenrich> ufuntu: can you sudo?
[03:15] <ufuntu> yes
[03:15] <MattJ> nomad111, Join #ubuntu-effects
[03:15] <strabes> x_: just install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[03:15] <Cplunsford> X_ same card minus the pro
[03:15] <x_> Daverocks .. ok thanks :)
[03:15] <alaQ> Cplunsford: now, follow with a 'sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart' and things should be fine.
[03:15] <nomad111> thx
[03:15] <Cplunsford> my sound is working atm
[03:15] <derenrich> ufuntu: can't you use passwd to change the root password then?
[03:16] <Cplunsford> its bizzar, intermittenly would pick a soundcard t oboot with
[03:16] <lachlan> is ubuntu-effects for beryl and what not?
[03:16] <ufuntu> sudo passwd?
[03:16] <taxman> ufuntu: sudo passwd root
[03:16] <derenrich> sudo passwd root
[03:16] <derenrich> yeah
  how ?!
[03:16] <ufuntu> yeah :))
[03:16] <ufuntu> thnx derenrich :))
[03:16] <derenrich> ufuntu: np
[03:16] <strabes> x_: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras or use synaptic to search for it
[03:16] <alaQ> Cplunsford: I've heard of the same problem happening.  I'm on my laptop, and swap in a PCMCIA Audigy2 ZS intermittently, so I'm well aquainted with asoundconf :)
[03:17] <MrTsunami> lachlan: essentially
[03:17] <strabes> x_: using the terminal is much better/faster than using a GUI after you get used to it. trust me.
[03:17] <strabes> x_: especially for doing simple things like installing programs from the repositories.
[03:17] <HEP85> derenrich: why would you want to do that?
[03:17] <HEP85> derenrich: you can use "sudo -s" to become root
[03:18] <dissection> Does Linux have something to check the microphone?
[03:18] <derenrich> derenrich: ufuntu had set a password for root that she had lost, i was telling her how to reset it
[03:18] <keenen> When i install grub gfxboot and added the splash code in the menu.list file do i type in grub-install sda1?
[03:18] <x_> strabes     ... ok .. i try it ... i used linux just for 14 hour
[03:18] <PriceChild> derenrich, ubuntu doesn't set a root password
[03:18] <strabes> x_: ok, good luck. I hope you like it.
[03:18] <derenrich> )and I just sent a message to myself...wow_
[03:18] <derenrich> PriceChild: I thought it just doesn't by default
[03:19] <keenen> When i install grub gfxboot and added the splash code in the menu.list file do i type in grub-install sda1?
[03:19] <derenrich> PriceChild: I believe you can set one
[03:19] <Newbie_Dude> strabes: thanks i'll try DownTHemAll, was hoping for one not integrated to Firefox but it seems a good candidate
[03:19] <PriceChild> derenrich, you can.... but you said "ubuntu had set a password for root"
[03:19] <LuitvD> allright, now it works... but not thanks to the network-manager... had to do some manual-configuration
[03:19] <derenrich> PriceChild: well I am not fully awake yet
[03:19] <derenrich> PriceChild: my mistake
[03:19] <lachlan> theres a 1000 people here :O
[03:19] <PriceChild> :)
[03:19] <LuitvD> cvs version of rt2x00 drivers works well
[03:20] <taxman> PriceChild: s/he probably just assumed since s/he couldn't su
[03:20] <Cplunsford> thanks alaQ somehow I think im good to go now lol
[03:20] <jerrcs> hello all, I wanted to get your feedback on a php script I made.... http://jerrcs.net/ubuntu?s=1.0 -- it grabs the mirror list and checks for the fastest mirror
[03:20] <Kevin4381> is there a way to password protect folders in /home/username/ ?
[03:20] <jerrcs> i was thinking of making it public but im not sure how well it works yet
[03:21] <lachlan> can i ask about compiz fusion because no one is alive at effects
[03:21] <alaQ> Cplunsford: well, if things still are shaky, just come back and let me know. :)
[03:21] <royel> PriceChild: actually he did NOT say ubuntu had set a password, he said uFuntu, the user name that was asking for help with her lost root passwd
[03:21] <ShackJack> lachlan: You can try #compiz-fusion as well...
[03:21] <lachlan> ok
[03:21] <derenrich> Kevin4381: yes
[03:22] <taxman> Kevin4381: use linux file permissions for that. If the permission are only set to allow the user to view then you're set
[03:22] <PriceChild> royel, my mistake then, i assumed that was a typo
[03:22] <derenrich> Kevin4381: What I do is only give root rights to view the folder
[03:22] <royel> PriceChild: really, the whole root thing policing you guys constantly do here annoys me, it should be a choice to have root and you guys shouldn't react in a way that makes people feel like criminals for using root.
[03:22] <Kevin4381> thanks
[03:23] <ShackJack> Hi all - I have a notebook... that goes to a blank screen whenever I log out (to return to gdm login screen) or try to so go runlevel 1... Trying to restart X (CTRL-ALT-BKSPACE) or drop to a command line does nothing and I have to power down... Any suggestions?
[03:23] <genii> royel I agree that a lot of people get too militant about it LOL
[03:23] <alaQ> royel: there's a way to enable root, but sudo makes a lot more sense, because you can actively limit who can do what in /etc/sudoers
[03:23] <PriceChild> royel, Wearing my ubuntu cloak etc. I represent Ubuntu. And Ubuntu's policy is that you don't use root. "/msg ubotu sudo" for the rational behind it.
[03:23] <x_> strabes  with that command , i installed SUN JAVA ... not Sound Card   !!!!
[03:23] <taxman> derenrich: if only that user can view the files, that's basically pw protected, no?
[03:25] <derenrich> taxman: True, but I make it root because any suer with root acess could just change the permissions in any case and then look at it
[03:25] <royel> genii: yeah, I think what Ubuntu has done is great, far too many people would use it too much, but some people (myself included)know when to use it properly.
[03:25] <anel> hi evebody!
[03:25] <taxman> derenrich: ahh, no I see what you mean. If you're logged in and want another layer of password your method works
[03:25] <x_> anel    hi :-)
[03:25] <awerner32_> ok i am ok i am trying to reformat an extra drive i have in my computer, with gparted i can deleted the old partition but when it goes to create the new one nautilus or something for some reason mounts the empty partition and then gparted can no longer partition it, how can i make whatever is mounting it stop, i tried changing the nautilus mounting options and fstab
[03:25] <naughtykid001> Hi, I'm Sean from My
[03:25] <lachlan> anel :P
[03:25] <anel> somebody speak`s in russian?
[03:25] <x_> niet
[03:25] <MrTsunami> !ru | anel
[03:26] <ubotu> anel:    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[03:26] <lachlan> :O
[03:26] <dissection> wot
[03:26] <royel> PriceChild: I understand your position, and the policy around it, but it is not a crime to have root, you guys react as if anyone using root is breaking a law.
[03:26] <derenrich> derenrich: Right, if you had many users on a system your method is better. I always assume people have my setup
[03:26] <taxman> wow, uboto knows Russian!
[03:26] <derenrich> (and i sent myself a message again)
[03:26] <nielsbosworth> I get the error Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server. I'm trying to start firestarter (firewall) as root, without entering a password for sudo. and I've added the line %admin ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter to sudoers
[03:26] <ShackJack> anel: /join #ubuntu-ru
[03:26] <PriceChild> rlyh
 thx
[03:26] <naughtykid001> just running ubuntu's live cd, how do I check if everything is running well?
[03:26] <MrTsunami> taxman: 'know' in the loosest possible sense :)
[03:26] <royel> PriceChild: I am not against the policy Ubuntu has at all, but I am simply against the reaction I see far too many people in here take.
[03:27] <taxman> MrTsunami: heh
[03:27] <taxman> naughtykid001: just run stuff, lots of stuff
[03:27] <PriceChild> royel, I don't reject it... and I understand a lot of people prefer it, and its their choice. However when someone is unsure of where they are... not quite understanding what's going on... I really recommend they use sudo before they're informed enough to make their own choice.
[03:27] <ShackJack> naughtykid001: Check sound, wirelss, printers, etc.. if they work - it's all good..
[03:27] <naughtykid001> games?
[03:27] <royel> PriceChild: anyhow, I've gone on too long an it's a bit off-topic, so lets enjoy other things for a while.
[03:27] <alaQ> naughtykid001: is there any smoke/fire/warning lights?  You should be all right. :)
[03:27] <PriceChild> indeed
[03:27] <ShackJack> Hi all - I have a notebook... that goes to a blank screen whenever I log out (to return to gdm login screen) or try to so go runlevel 1... Trying to restart X (CTRL-ALT-BKSPACE) or drop to a command line does nothing and I have to power down... Any suggestions?
[03:28] <MrTsunami> as long as nothing explodes, one would assume, alaQ ;)
[03:28] <naughtykid001> alaQ: LoL, luckily there isn't
[03:28] <alaQ> MrTsunami: Don't joke about that!  I've had it happen.
[03:28] <MrTsunami> mmm as have I
[03:29] <naughtykid001> ShackJack: no printer, no wireless, sound is good
[03:29] <alaQ> MrTsunami: Fried a mobo while rendering a scene in povray.  Still not quite sure how. :)
[03:29] <naughtykid001> Checking with the hard disk though..
[03:29] <royel> PriceChild: One last note, I agree with what you just said, I dont think uFuntu needs to be using root :)  But the reaction to derenrich is what bothered me more I guess, seems he was scolded for trying to help.
[03:29] <x_> how i can install plugin for RM and WMA stream radios ?!
[03:29] <genii> ShackJack: You have a swap space large enough to hold all the ram contents when it wants to auto-sleep?
[03:29] <naughtykid001> it seems to detect my harddisk, but I can't access it?
[03:30] <ShackJack> genii: Yep, I beleive so 1.5 or 2x RAM
[03:30] <nielsbosworth> I would like to run 'sudo firestarter' and not be prompted for at password. I've read a lot of support on the forums, but it won't work.
[03:30] <ShackJack> genii: It shouldn't be trying to go to sleep though - I'm just choosing log out (to go back to loging screen) or sudo init 1 from command line and screen goes blank...
[03:31] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: Just curious, do you have a firewall?
[03:31] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: Nothing besides firestarter. I'm NAT'ed, but not firewalled
[03:31] <genii> ShackJack: OK, that was just my initial hunch :) init 1 going blank dunno, but logout may be some issue with X restart
[03:32] <vieirar> Hi I have Feisty up and running. I also installed Firestarter. My issue is I put in a policy to allow 192.168.148.0/22 but it is not working.
[03:33] <vieirar> I also joined Feisty to the AD Domain. However, I cannot log in unless firestarter is shutdown. Since it blocks me from getting a Kerborose ticket and authenitcating to the domain.
[03:33] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: I wonder if that trick used to login to keyring automatically would work for Firestarter - is it trying to access your keyring?
[03:33] <gilo2> Two things..., anyone know of a GUI for configuring IPSec and are there any other opensource applications that are recommended over wine for running windows apps?
[03:33] <Happu> -
[03:33] <x_> how i can install RealPlayer on 7.07 ?!
[03:33] <x_> i mean 7.04
[03:33] <Jordan_U> ShackJack, No
[03:34] <ShackJack> gilo2: Win'es pretyt much it, but you can run WMWare to run full-fledged Windows OS (or others) inside your Ubutnutu
[03:34] <derenrich> gilo2: there are commerical products that are better than wine in some instances
[03:34] <ShackJack> Jordan_U: :)
[03:34] <vieirar> gilo2, YOu can install Vmware-Server and run Windows in a virtual machine.
[03:34] <taxman> naughtykid001: it doesn't mount anything on the hd by defuault. Doubleclick on a partition and you should be able to see files. NTFS partitions will mount ro by default
[03:34] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: I've added a new line to /etc/sudoers reading %admin ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter, but then firestarter can't open display and won't start
[03:34] <vieirar> gilo2, What apps are you trying to run that Wine does not work with?
[03:35] <x_> nielsbosworth  hej med dig
[03:35] <gilo2> everyone is recommending vmware.... am I better running windows or linux as the host operating system?  I'm guessing linux?
[03:35] <nielsbosworth> x_ hej
[03:35] <ShackJack> gilo2: Linux FTW!
[03:35] <nielsbosworth> x_: hej
[03:35] <derenrich> gilo2: if all of your apps are going to be windows, windows, in reality, would be a better bet
[03:36] <vieirar> gilo2, Depends what you plan on using most. If you plan on running more windows apps then Windows as the host. If more linux apps then linux as the host.
[03:36] <taxman> x_: did you check the restricted formats page on the wiki?
[03:36] <gilo2> vieirar I'm actually interested in running a game called EVE (which I probably should just dual boot) but I wanted to try to run it under linux.
[03:36] <nielsbosworth> x_: kender vi hinanden?
[03:36] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: Eeeg... that *should* work... I only had it installed breifly and I saw my Router takes care of firewalling...
[03:36] <x_> i need some help .... i need some software for RM (real player) and WMA ( windows media player) ... for stream radios
[03:36] <vieirar> gilo2, Vmware does not support 3d apps so you would need to run Windows as the host.
[03:36] <naughtykid001> taxman: I double click the icon, and there's pop up message showing "unable to mount the selected volume"
[03:36] <x_> nielsbosworth nej kun jeg vil sige hej  :-)
[03:37] <Jordan_U> x_, for WMA you may need w32codecs
[03:37] <x_> taxman   what's u mean ?!
[03:37] <vieirar> gilo2, 3D support is in the works and can work but it is not supported and does not work great.
[03:37] <m1r> hi all
[03:37] <ShackJack> !hi | m1r
[03:37] <ubotu> m1r: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:37] <taxman> naughtykid001: huh. bummer
[03:37] <taxman> x_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[03:37] <x_> jordan_U i tried linux just 14 hour ... can u tell me step by step ?!:-)
[03:37] <gilo2> okay, so probably combo of wine and dual boot for now.  How about the other question... IPSec GUI?  been looking all over the place and can't find one.
[03:37] <vieirar> gilo2, To run windows games in linux try Cedga. It costs only $15 or you can get the source and compile yourself. I recommend you pay the 15
[03:38] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: It seems like the sudo works, but for some reason it changes the environment. When i run firestarter and enter the password there is no problem. I'll try reading about the keyring thing.
[03:38] <CheesyMonkey> gilo2, EveOnline?
[03:38] <nielsbosworth> x_: men hvordan vidste du at jeg var dansker? ;-)
[03:38] <gilo2> vieirar cedega?  I will look into it.. thanks.
[03:38] <vieirar> gilo2, Cedga has improved support for DX
[03:38] <gilo2> CheesyMonkey Yes eveonline
[03:38] <x_> Jordan_U what i should type in terminal for that ?!
[03:38] <zerotrace> Would anybody be interested in buying a Proliant DL320 dual 1GHz Pentium 3? We're looking for $150+shipping.
[03:38] <anandanbu> where can i get a package of the Lucida fonts for the Ubuntu 7.04
[03:38] <CheesyMonkey> gilo2, Last time i checked that was the top rated for running under WINE
[03:38] <Jordan_U> x_, Look at the link taxman gave
[03:38] <x_> nielsbosworth    fra dit navn :-)
[03:38] <HEP85> cedega costs money
[03:38] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: No I don't think F/S accesses keyring, and I dunno if there's option in FS to enter p/w automatically - seems weird it would prompt you... You know you don't have to start firestarter as root, I don't think - maybe that's the issue...
[03:39] <skulrid> hi
[03:39] <derenrich> hey
[03:39] <vieirar> Yes Cedega cost but it is worth it. Unless you run wine beta
[03:39] <gilo2> cheesymonkey you're saying eve does work under wine?
[03:39] <darkempress> !flash
[03:39] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[03:39] <CheesyMonkey> gilo2, Last time I looked yes, ill look
[03:39] <skulrid> im using a ubuntu CD to load my desktop. all my files are gone where can I find them_
[03:39] <gilo2> cheesymonkey I can do it, thanks.
[03:39] <naughtykid001> taxman: I'm running live CD, is there anything to do with it?
[03:39] <ShackJack> anandanbu: You don't need a package per se, If you have the ttf files or whatever, dunp them in a .fonts directory in your /home/username folder
[03:40] <jhattu> Could someone help me with OOo calc. My Calc is missing an important command called MROUND. How could I get it working?
[03:40] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: if i try to run firestarter without, it asks for root privileges ;-)
[03:40] <CheesyMonkey> gilo2, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=6278
[03:40] <vieirar> Cedega cost a whole $5 month and requires only 3 months This includes support and ability to vote on game ports
[03:40] <MrTsunami> skulrid: /media/ folder
[03:40] <anandanbu> shackjack: where can i get those fonts
[03:40] <Jordan_U> skule, What do you mean by "gone" do you just need to know how to mount your / partition?
[03:40] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: Sot NAT isn't behind any kind of hardware firewall (like a router or whatever)?
[03:40] <Newbie_Dude> My monitor I think is supposed to be 60 Hz at 1280x1024, but in the "Screen Resolution" it only allows me 50 Hz and 56 Hz ??? Is that bad ???
[03:40] <gilo2> so No one knows of a GUI for IPSec configuration?  I'm wanting something sorta of like a VPN branch to branch for tunnel mode and the ability to do machine to machine for transport mode.
[03:40] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, Are you doing $sudo firestarter
[03:41] <royel> Newbie_Dude: on a LCD it makes no difference
[03:41] <ep2011> I am having a problem with gmail notify. It is showing a thin white strip instead of the usual popup, and it goes from the bottom of my screen to the top. Any ideas why? Any alternatives?
[03:41] <skulrid> Jordan_U gone, i mean I had all my files on my desktop now it is empty and I dont know where to find them
[03:41] <taxman> naughtykid001: no, the livecd should be able to mount it just fine. What type of partition is it?
[03:41] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: yes
[03:41] <Newbie_Dude> royel: yes i have an LCD, so I don't have to worry about refresh rate?
[03:41] <taxman> gilo2: I'd be surprised if there's a gui for that
[03:41] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, what do you get after that command?
[03:41] <Jordan_U> skulrid, You files shouldn't be on the desktop of the LiveCD, or do you mean that they are gone when you boot normally?
[03:42] <royel> Newbie_Dude: no, move on, it won't cause any ill effects.
[03:42] <gilo2> taxman I hate to say it, but windows is so much easier for configuring IPSec... racoon just isn't the most friendly app.
[03:42] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: Yes. there is a router between me and the internets, but I am open to anyone on the same LAN
[03:42] <skulrid> oh I just found them... Home/Media/disk1
[03:42] <Newbie_Dude> royel: thanks :)
[03:42] <ShackJack> nielsbosworth: Ah, I see...
[03:42] <skulrid> a minute ago it wouldnt open lol
[03:42] <naughtykid001> taxman: forget which one, NTFS should be
[03:42] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: I get %admin ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter
[03:43] <taxman> gilo2: It could be, Linux isn't perfect :)
[03:43] <zdzichu_> how to skip raid (mdadm) autostart when booting from livecd?
[03:43] <royel> Newbie_Dude: my panels show 50hz under linux as well, I don't know for sure why that number comes up, but the panels should be locked at 60hz regardless, dont think the driver can change it.
[03:43] <nielsbosworth> ShackJack: I use different networks at school, friends dorms and so on, otherwise I probably wouldn't bother setting up the firewall.
[03:43] <Jordan_U> zdzichu_, The LiveCD installer does not support RAID if you are trying to install
[03:44] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: wrong paste - sorry
[03:44] <zdzichu_> Jordan_U: no, I'm booting from 6.06 Desktop CD in recovery purposes
[03:44] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[03:44] <Toma-> Whats the lightest on memory Ubuntu based distro?
[03:44] <zdzichu_> Jordan_U: init script autostarts raid devices, I want to skip this
[03:44] <ramanK> Why the date of my PC automatically changes every 5 minuts?!!!
[03:44] <jhattu> Could someone help me with OOo calc. My Calc is missing an important command called MROUND. How could I get it working or installed? I should have all the needed packages installed but the command is still missing...
[03:45] <ramanK> HELP ME:Why the date of my PC automatically changes every 5 minuts?!!!
[03:45] <taxman> Toma-: fluxbuntu I think, but it's not official. For official Xubuntu is it
[03:45] <skulrid> Jordan_U now im trying to copy some files to a backup partition I have, but some files it wont let me copy it says I dont have permition to read it, why is it so_
[03:45] <Toma-> taxman: hmm never thought out fluxbuntu. thanks
[03:45] <ramanK> HELP ME:Why the date of my PC automatically changes every 5 minuts to the 2008?!!!
[03:45] <Meyvn> in Synaptic Package Manager, what does the Installed (auto-removable) packages mean, are those packages without any other depencies and safe to remove?
[03:46] <ShackJack> ramanK: Are you near a wormhole :P
[03:46] <cnoi> somebody in here know how to connect a ps3 sixaxis controller via bluetooth?
[03:46] <steven_> i've 2 PCs connected via a crossed cable, ive installed dnsmasq on one of these and configured eth0 for static ip, on the other i've configured eth0 for dhcp lease, but it doesn't work, i receive no dhcp offers
[03:46] <Jordan_U> skulrid, Because you they aren't owned by the liveCD user and are set not to be viewable by other users, you can copy them as root though
[03:46] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, I assume you are a member of the admin group
[03:46] <genii> steven_: You need dhcp3-server
[03:47] <steven_> genii, i'm using dnsmasq as dhcp server
[03:47] <skulrid> how? sory my ignorance..
[03:47] <ramanK> ShackJack: what can I do? I don't see a unusual  thing in my PC!
[03:48] <ShackJack> ramanK: Hee hee I dunno - just being wise -- check time/date settings, make sure they're not automatically syncing and set to right time, etc...
[03:48] <cnoi> somebody in here know how to connect a ps3 sixaxis controller via bluetooth?
[03:48] <genii> steven_: I don't use that one normally. But there should be a conf file i imagine
[03:48] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: correct. To me it seems like the entry in sudo is working, but for some reason the environment is different after the change in sudoers. I've tried various fixes from google  for this error, but Nothing has worked so far
[03:48] <skulrid> Jordan_U how can I do that?
[03:49] <steven_> yes, i edited the dhcp-range option, the dhcp server is listening on udp port 67
[03:49] <naughtykid001> taxman: yap, I opened the terminal already
[03:50] <vieirar> Could you start firestarter before the change in sudoers? Looks like the  only change you made was to allow firestarter to start with root privilege without giving a password
[03:50] <Jordan_U> skulrid, sudo cp /file/to/be/copied /where/it/should/go/
[03:50] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, Could you start firestarter before the change in sudoers? Looks like the  only change you made was to allow firestarter to start with root privilege without giving a password
[03:50] <darkempress> how do i find out how much room is on a hard drive?
[03:50] <Moduliz0r> hi
[03:50] <Moduliz0r> if I am going to reinstall windows how would I go about re-installing GRUB?
[03:50] <skulrid> Jordan_U rigth, and what pass should I type.._
[03:50] <vieirar> DarkED, df -h
[03:50] <Jordan_U> !grub > Moduliz0r
[03:51] <darkempress> !hard drive
[03:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hard drive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:51] <Moduliz0r> -thanks
[03:51] <Jordan_U> skulrid, It won't ask for one on the liveCD
[03:51] <Jordan_U> Moduliz0r, np
[03:51] <skulrid> oh thnks
[03:51] <vieirar> darkempress, df -h or Accessories => Disk analyzer
[03:51] <steven_> genii:  yes, i edited the dhcp-range option, the dhcp server is listening on udp port 67
[03:51] <ShackJack> darkempress: Or, you can open you system mointor and one of the tabs will tell you (under Admin menu)
[03:51] <genii> steven_: Is it latched onto the staic IP of the server as well? eg: listen-address=127.0.0.1   <-- changed to your IP
[03:52] <steven_> genii:  yes, i edited the dhcp-range option, the dhcp server is listening on udp port 67
[03:52] <steven_> genii: sorry :P uhm no it isnt should i add this line?
[03:52] <vieirar> System Analyzer is the best. One of the great Linux Tools.
[03:52] <genii> steven_: In the dnsmasq.conf , yes
[03:53] <skulrid> Jordan_U it says cp: omitting directory `/media/disk-1/home/nuno/Desktop/trabalhos' and doesent copy anything att all
[03:53] <Otacon22> how can i flush up dnsttl cache?
[03:53] <genii> steven_:  Then you need to of course: sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart      to make it take effect
[03:54] <taime1> every OTHER time i boot, i have sound... why is this?
[03:54] <Jordan_U> skule, use cp -r for directories
[03:54] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: Yes. if I don't change sudoers firestarter starts without a hitch, but requires a password (firestarter requires root privileges). I would like to get rid of the password prompt, so I can let firestarter run at startup
[03:54] <Jordan_U> taime1, Is it repeatably every other time or just 50/50 chance?
[03:55] <magic_ninja> !getty
[03:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about getty - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:55] <steven_> genii: nothing changed
[03:55] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: this Is what I don't understand - both before and after the change, firestarter runs as root - only change is whether I have to input the password
[03:55] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, Firestarter does run at startup as a daemon. So you want to login and have the gui start also
[03:56] <genii> steven_: Did you release/renew on the client?
[03:56] <genii> work, afk 2-3 mins
[03:56] <steven_> genii: yes: ifup eth0 No "DHCPOFFERS received.
[03:56] <steven_> "
[03:56] <Arso> !nvidia
[03:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:57] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: I wasn't aware that firestarter runs automatically. How can I confirm that?
[03:57] <ep2011> I am having a problem with gmail notify. It is showing a thin white strip instead of the usual popup, and it goes from the bottom of my screen to the top. Any ideas why? Any alternatives?
[03:57] <taime1> jordan_u: 50/50 chance
[03:57] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, look in /etc/rc2.d/
[03:57] <Arso> is gain recommended as an irc client?
[03:57] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: if the service runs as a daemon I don't need the gui
[03:57] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: looking now :-)
[03:57] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, You should see S??firestarter
[03:58] <taime1> jordan_u: is it loading one module before the other sometimes? i have onboard sound as well as a card...
[03:58] <alaQ> Arso: you can use it, but some people prefer others.  I use Konversation(kde-based)
[03:58] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, S is start the numbers state when and the name is the service to start
[03:58] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, rc2.d is the session # is rc3 rc4 rc1 etc....
[03:58] <alaQ> Arso: a common one for Gnome-based environments is x-chat
[03:58] <steven_> !pastebin
[03:58] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:58] <Jordan_U> taime1, That could be possible, do you know what the module is for the card that you *don't* want to use?
[03:58] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: S20firestarter is there :-). So i only need the GUI if I want to change the firewall rules
[03:59] <skulrid> Jordan_U and when it says> cp: cannot create directory `/media/disk/Documents and Settings/Nuno/Ambiente de trabalho/UBUNTU BACKUP': Read-only file system ??
[03:59] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, K is to kill a service
[03:59] <taime1> no...
[03:59] <taime1> cuz its onboard that i dont want..
[03:59] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: meant that as a question :-)
[03:59] <Jordan_U> taime1, And have you tried seeing if the other is outputting sound when the one you want isn't working?
[03:59] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, Correct.
[03:59] <Arso> umm, how do install my nvidia drivers :S
[03:59] <brainiac8008> hi.  I have a dual boot of Ubuntu 7.04 and Windows XP.  Sometimes, when I start up my computer, GRUB appears, and I select the Ubuntu boot option, it doesn't say in the top left, "Starting Up... Loading, Please Wait."  Ubuntu then starts up as normal until my desktop comes up.  The wireless internet program doesn't connect to the internet automatically like I set it to and my sticky notes don't come up.  If I cli
[03:59] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: Perfect. Thanks a lot for your help.
[04:00] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, To test if it is working you can turn on ICMP filtering then try and ping something it will not let you until you stop firestarter
[04:00] <BlueStorm> Nitro tha CiMien
[04:00] <ShackJack> Hi all - I have a notebook... that goes to a blank screen whenever I log out (to return to gdm login screen) or try to so go runlevel 1... Trying to restart X (CTRL-ALT-BKSPACE) or drop to a command line does nothing and I have to power down... Any suggestions?
[04:00] <vikku> hi .....how can i add dns ip address for my ISP in Ubuntu ?
[04:00] <Jordan_U> skulrid, Are you backing up to an NTFS partition?
[04:00] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: Ok.
[04:00] <taime1> jordan_u: yeah, its always just one or the other
[04:00] <Materials> could anyone tell me what package i need to use opengl libraries and the include and linking directories i need to use with g++?
[04:00] <alaQ> !nvidia > Arso
[04:01] <vieirar> nielsbosworth, All S are services you are running you can clean up what service run looking in there or using sysv-rc-conf
[04:01] <skulrid> Jordan_U yes, thers no other way i can get them later...*cause I cant load ubuntu*
[04:01] <Jordan_U> taime1, try setting the default card with asoundconf
[04:01] <nielsbosworth> vieirar: thanks
[04:01] <taime1> asoundconf is the command?
[04:01] <Jordan_U> skulrid, There is an ext driver for windows
[04:01] <Arso> alaQ , oh thnx, i didnt see the link at the bottom when i first visisted that link
[04:02] <alaQ> Arso: no prob :)
[04:02] <vikku> how can i add dns ip address for my ISP in Ubuntu ?
[04:02] <skulrid> Jordan_U what do you mean_
[04:02] <genii> Back
[04:02] <Jordan_U> skulrid, http://fs-driver.org/ that will let you read and write to your Ubuntu partition from windows
[04:03] <genii> steven_: Well I'm out of immediate ideas then. As I said, I usually use dhcp3-server so not overly familiar with the insides of dnsmasq
[04:03] <supremesonic> anyone have a idea of when firefox 3 will be release for ubuntu as stable ?
[04:03] <ShackJack> taime1: Just FYI, #alsa has it's own dedicated channel where you can chat with the sound geeks...
[04:03] <Jordan_U> skulrid, If you still want to copy the files over you will need to mount your windows partition with ntfs-3g
[04:03] <taime1> thanks shack
[04:03] <steven_> genii: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30542/ <--- my config
[04:03] <skulrid> Jordan_U you mean that from windows directly I can get my files stored in ubuntu_
[04:04] <MarcN> vikku: by default ubuntu will ask for an ip address.  What are you trying to do?
[04:04] <royel> vikku: edit your /etc/resolv.conf  > nameserver <IP>
[04:04] <genii> steven_: OK I'll take a look
[04:04] <Jordan_U> skulrid, Yes
[04:04] <steven_> genii: tnx
[04:04] <skulrid> nice
[04:04] <zloc> can anyone help me with a swapping problem with multiple usb sound cards?
[04:05] <vikku> MarcN:   I installed bind packages and to uypdate the deb packages .... i need to put my ISP's address in serain file which i dont know abt .....
[04:05] <vieirar> vikku, You can also do it via System => Administration => Network
[04:05] <Arso> alaQ , i installed the nvidia restricted driver, and rebooted, but i still cant get the native resolution, and the instructions on FixVideoResolutionHowto arent clear for me (this is my first day with ubuntu)
[04:05] <Jordan_U> taime1, asoundconf set-default-card
[04:05] <GSMX> Is xgl/compiz compatible with feisty?
[04:05] <MarcN> vikku: bind9 is for running your own DNS name server, something most people don't need to do.
[04:05] <taime1> yes
[04:05] <Jordan_U> taime1, asoundconf list to tell what the card is called
[04:05] <taime1> okat
[04:05] <taime1> okay*
[04:05] <vieirar> GSMX, Yes along with Beryl and Compiz-Fusion
[04:05] <Jordan_U> GSMX, Yes
[04:05] <vikku> vieirar: I still dont have desktop installed !!!  how would i do that
[04:05] <alaQ> Arso: ok, I'll try to walk you through it.
[04:06] <GSMX> Ok
[04:06] <GSMX> tanks
[04:06] <royel> vikku: edit your /etc/resolv.conf  > nameserver <IP>
[04:06] <GSMX> *thanks
[04:06] <vieirar> vikku, No desktop yes then as royel said
[04:06] <Arso> alaQ thank you :), ill try one last thing, if it doesnt work, i'll let u know
[04:06] <Jordan_U> GSMX, If you don't have an ATI card you can enable it without even installing anything
[04:06] <vieirar> vikku, Your not using DHCP?
[04:06] <mpech> re
[04:06] <Jordan_U> GSMX, System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[04:07] <mpech> question
[04:07] <vikku> YEs iam using DHCP too ..... i mean it gets automatically assigned ....a private ip ie 192.168.x.x
[04:07] <mpech> i move icon for firefox from main menu to desktop and it appears in desktop in HUGE size
[04:07] <mpech> ubuntu 7.04
[04:07] <alaQ> Arso: what's the desired resolution?
[04:07] <Arso> alaQ : 1440x900
[04:07] <alaQ> Arso: ah.  Laptop, huh?
[04:08] <Arso> alaQ: and freshrate : 75
[04:08] <Jordan_U> mpech, How huge?
[04:08] <Pici> vikku: If you are using dhcp, add a line to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf that says: prepend domain-name-servers 100.100.100.100  or whatever your dns addresses are.
[04:08] <Arso> alaQ: no, just a 19inch widescreen lcd
[04:08] <steven_> mpech: right click stretch icon / restore size
[04:08] <skulrid> Jordan_U i think my partition is EXT3, do I have to do somthing on ubuntu first before going to windows?
[04:08] <alaQ> Arso:  I see.
[04:08] <mpech> ah
[04:08] <mpech> yes
[04:08] <vieirar> vikku, Well then edit your resolv.conf file as royel said using either nano or vi. Odd that your dhcp server does not supply dns server addresses.
[04:08] <Arso> alaQ : ok, i couldnt do it, i need your help please.
[04:08] <mpech> steven's tip helps
[04:08] <mpech> 10x
[04:08] <Jordan_U> skulrid, No, ext3 is backwards compatible with ext2 so you can use the ext2 driver in windows
[04:09] <cnoi> i need help to connect my ps3 controller to linux via bluetooth somebody know how to do that??????????????
[04:09] <mpech> Jordan_U: it was really HUGE by default
[04:09] <mpech> :)
[04:09] <Squart> hello all
[04:09] <Arso> alaQ : btw, in mIRC , when u want to write someones name, u just write the first few letters and press TAB and it auto-completes, how do i do that in gaim?
[04:09] <Squart> loooking for some help
[04:09] <Squart> just installed ubuntu
[04:09] <alaQ> Arso: ok.  you need to open up the xorg.conf file to edit the resolution in.   in a terminal, type 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[04:09] <genii> steven_: You could try adding the mask in the range line.
[04:09] <Squart> but when i was installint it it did no t ask me for a passwd for root
[04:09] <skulrid> thnks
[04:09] <skulrid> brb
[04:09] <Arso> alaQ : ok
[04:09] <Squart> and now when i want to change the config it would ask me for password
[04:10] <Squart> how can i fix this?
[04:10] <alaQ> Arso:  the GAIM thing, I don't know (i use a different client)
[04:10] <Pici> !sudo | Squart
[04:10] <ubotu> Squart: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:10] <steven_> genii: i just uncommented that line :P
[04:10] <Pici> Squart: Read up on that link above.
[04:10] <royel> !root | Squart
[04:10] <ubotu> Squart: 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
[04:10] <Squart> but i am the gui
[04:10] <Arso> alaQ : ok, no problem, ok i pasted the command in terminal
[04:10] <Squart> working in gui mode
[04:10] <jimbojones> can anyone refresh me on the command line to open font properties in gnome... gnome-font-preference or something similar
[04:11] <vikku> vieirar: Actually  ... i am not sure if my dhcp is running !! ......iam sitting in win xp rt now ....trying to get some help to have my ubuntu7.04 server ed work !! .... i want to install desktop too .......
[04:11] <cnoi> i need help to connect my ps3 controller to linux via bluetooth somebody know how to do that??????????????
[04:11] <taxman> ok this is weird, naughtykid001 is running the livecd and trying to double click on a partition to mount it tells him it is unable to mount
[04:11] <alaQ> Arso: all right - at the bottom of the file, there's a section labeled "Screen".  Under it, it gives a list of bit depth, and then the resolutions.
[04:11] <Arso> alaQ : can we pm? all the messages are hurting my eyes at this resolution and freshrate :(
[04:11] <vikku> which i dont have idea of !!
[04:11] <Pici> Squart: So? Those links have all the information you need.
[04:11] <genii> steven_: I would also comment out listen address 127.0.0.1 and just leave the new one with actual IP
[04:11] <royel> Squart: ubuntu does not use root, sudo is used instead, read the above links for more information
[04:11] <T-Connect> Hero of Allacrost now install.
[04:11] <vikku> i couldnt find any deb pkgs for KDE and gnome
[04:11] <swmiller6> !gksudo| Squart
[04:11] <ubotu> Squart: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[04:11] <taxman> but going from the command line and creating the /media/sda1 mount point, he is able to access it just fine. Any ideas on the problem?
[04:11] <cnoi> i need help to connect my ps3 controller to linux via bluetooth somebody know how to do that??????????????
[04:11] <Squart> ok
[04:12] <samsara> how can I determine whether a drive is connected via usb1.1 or usb2.0?
[04:12] <vieirar> vikku, Well when you get into you Ubuntu sysem if dhcp is not working issue dhclient eth0 as root. Assuming you are using your first network card
[04:12] <DagonIT> could some one tell me where to get help with open office writer?
[04:12] <cnoi> i need help to connect my ps3 controller to linux via bluetooth somebody know how to do that????
[04:12] <taxman> DagonIT: #openoffice.org
[04:13] <MarcN> cnoi: google on how to connect palm pilot via bluetooth.  Should be similar
[04:13] <DagonIT> thanks
[04:13] <T-Connect> How to install Hero of Allacrost - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30544/ :)
[04:13] <samsara> cnoi: for what I know, you may as well forget about it - bluetooth support in linux is not impressive...
[04:13] <vieirar> vikku, This will run dhcp on eth0 and provide all you settings to the network from the server. Also check the /etc/network/interfaces is setup correctly
[04:13] <W9ZEB-Lars> rofl.....
[04:13] <cnoi> palm pilot? :-X
[04:13] <alaQ> samsara: lsusb -v, and search for the line bcdUSB
[04:13] <W9ZEB-Lars> the NOC at our datacenter sent me an e-mail saying that 216.37.57.112 was reported as spamming.....  what am I going to do about it...
[04:13] <samsara> thanks alaQ
[04:14] <vikku> vieirar: i have adsl connection which is connected my comp thru USB ......
[04:14] <vieirar> vikku, should look like this auto eth0  and iface eth0 inet dhcp
[04:14] <Frogzoo> samsara: tail -f /var/log/messages & plug it in - ehci I think is the 2.0 driver
[04:14] <MarcN> cnoi: yeah, a hand held PDA that can do tcp/ip over bluetooth to a linux system.
[04:14] <W9ZEB-Lars> My response was that our IP range is 216.37.57.0/27 it's not possible for us to have originated spam from .112
[04:14] <alaQ> Arso: still there?
[04:14] <vieirar> vikku, ahh OK I see
[04:14] <Arso> alaQ: yes. sorry
[04:14] <vikku> vieirar : so what should i do ?
[04:14] <genii> steven_: I found an interesting dnsmasq.conf sample here http://htyp.org/dnsmasq.conf_sample
[04:14] <W9ZEB-Lars> completely wrong window for that, sorry #ubuntu.
[04:14] <antony> hi, dunno is maybe be in the kubuntu channel, but what the heck...so my question is:   What is the deal with "Show credentials"  that i am seeing in the wireless connection dialogues (and some other places?)
[04:14] <univremonster> I have a question about launchpad.  I'm trying edit my PGP keys and my terminal gives me the error that it cannot find a keyserver
[04:15] <Arso> alaQ: i was at the pm box, and the messages are appearing at the channel box
[04:15] <Arso> alaQ:  let me read up, one second please.
[04:15] <steven_> genii: edited listen-address noting changed
[04:15] <antony> i mean the distro won't let me easily log in as root, why show passwords in plain text so easily?
[04:15] <samsara> thanks Frogzoo
[04:15] <MarcN> cnoi: basically edit /etc/default/bluetooth to enable dund_enable, set a dund_options, write a /etc/ppp/peers/ config file should do most on the linux side.  And enable ip_forwarding by writing into /proc/net/ip_forward.
[04:15] <cnoi> ok but i found this site which im following but it says i need to patch the kernel which i have no idea how to do
[04:15] <Arso> alaQ:  ok, now that i am at the screen section, what do i do?
[04:15] <taxman> any idea on why the livecd would fail to mount someone's hd partitions?
[04:15] <vieirar> vikku, I have never used adsl connected directly to my system. I always had a router in front and connected my PC via ethernet. I do know Ubuntu will work, I will see if I can find some instructions for you.
[04:15] <genii> steven_ You need someone who knows more about this particular app then me
[04:15] <MarcN> cnoi: send me your game console and I'll figure out that side as well ;-)
[04:16] <univremonster> taxman: did you install or are you running off the cd?
[04:16] <genii> *than me* rather
[04:16] <cnoi> heh... you like that? :)
[04:16] <Arso> alaQ:  are you there. .
[04:16] <steven_> genii: trying with that config file :P a second
[04:16] <craigbass1976> how do I find my default gateway?  I type route, but am not getting a complete address
[04:16] <alaQ> Arso:  in front of each line of resolutions, add "1440x900" in the same form as what's already there.
[04:16] <Arso> alaQ: ok
[04:17] <taxman> univremonster: I'm asking for naughtykid001, he's running from the 6.06 livecd
[04:17] <alaQ> Arso: when that's done, then restart X, and it should be working, hopefully.  If not, I'll have to look harder.
[04:17] <denni> Anyone here that has a idea of how to get Xv to work while using compiz on intels GMA-XXX?
[04:17] <univremonster> taxman:  when you install Ubunutu as your OS it will mount your partitions, or at least you can do it manually if there are any issues.  If you're running off the CD you don't have the necessary permissions to change any 'permanent' things like hd partitions
[04:18] <younghacker> can someone help me reconfigure my pg_hba.conf file to work correctly
[04:18] <mariocesar_bo> Hello, someone has problems updating firefox to 2.0.0.5? I get almost all my extensions disable, and it's using the mozilla-firefox-locale on english instead Spanish ... :S any help ?
[04:18] <Milos_SD> I have a problem with my mice ... It goes crazy from time to time, and a log says this:    Jul 20 15:45:32 sdcafe-desktop kernel: [97137.872623]  psmouse.c: Explorer Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 3 bytes away.
[04:18] <younghacker> I can paste it to the bin
[04:18] <Jordan_U> denni, xv is not needed for Videos AFIK with a GPU accelerated WM
[04:18] <taxman> univremonster: but by default you can mount the partitions by doubleclicking on them. He gets errors instead
[04:18] <denni> Jordan_U: So, what should i use then?
[04:18] <denni> Jordan_U: currently i cant watch videos at all while using compiz.
[04:19] <genii> steven_: I think you would need to use the MAC address of your eth0 instead of course
[04:19] <Wanderer> I'm looking on an Edgy system for where $TZ is set.  It's not in my profile and I'm not seeing it in /etc (with grep)....
[04:19] <steven_> genii: can you help em with the dhcp server you usually use?
[04:19] <Wanderer> anyone have any ideas?  It's set to EST and throwing my clock off
[04:19] <Jordan_U> denni, run "gstreamer-properties" and select the noxv option under the video tab
[04:19] <univremonster> taxman:  I am guessing this is a result of being on the CD rather than installed.  I had the same problem with an external hd until install.  You can always install as a dual-boot to try it out without risking any files (since Ubuntu should be able to read your windows partitions)
[04:19] <Milos_SD> I have a problem with my mice ... It goes crazy from time to time, and a log says this:    Jul 20 15:45:32 sdcafe-desktop kernel: [97137.872623]  psmouse.c: Explorer Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 3 bytes away.  Is it a problem with my mice, or kernel (KVM), or someone is hackin me? Please help me. :S
[04:19] <Fantazyia> hello all, i am having an issue with the sbackup program, can anyone help me?
[04:19] <cnoi>  MarcN: i do not know how to do that but.... take a look at this page: http://www.pabr.org/sixlinux/sixlinux.en.html  they saing something else but i do not know what to do in section 3
[04:20] <steven_> genii: i tryed dhcp3-server (or something similar) but i found the configuration quite complicated
[04:20] <univremonster> Milos_SD: Is it a wireless mouse?
[04:20] <younghacker> hello i need some help configuring my pg_hba.conf file for postgres
[04:20] <younghacker> can anyone help me
[04:20] <jimbojones> anyone know how to get to font preferences in gnome through the command line?
[04:20] <genii> steven_: Yes, but I think the idea of having dnsmasq is to be a gateway for your other box. The dhcp3-server will give out numbers but not be a gateway etc
[04:20] <Arso> alaQ: sorry, back
[04:21] <younghacker> =(
[04:21] <Arso> alaQ:  umm, how do i restart X please. :S
[04:21] <alaQ> Arso: any luck?
[04:21] <Milos_SD> No, it is a cable mouse, and not laser or optic sensor ...
[04:21] <steven_> genii: i'm just trying to get an ip :P
[04:21] <denni> Jordan_U: My videos just get blurry and kind of white compared to when i dont use compiz :/
[04:21] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  Do you know the model?
[04:21] <alaQ> Arso: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:22] <Milos_SD> A4Tech FastNet5Mouse
[04:22] <c_lisp> Arso: or ctrl+backspace+alt
[04:22] <genii> steven_: OK :) Then you should first uninstall the dnsmasq, then install the dhcp3-server
[04:22] <genii> steven_: I'll help you configure it
[04:22] <Milos_SD> It worked fine untill tree days ago ...
[04:22] <alaQ> c_lisp: a little late, and that should only be used for emergencies (is very naughty to X, doesn't clean up well)
[04:22] <Jordan_U> denni, Have you tried with noxv ?
[04:22] <denni> Jordan_U: Yeah, i just did that
[04:23] <Fantazyia> hello all, i am having an issue with the sbackup program, can anyone help me?
[04:23] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  I think you can safely say you're not being hacked... have you tried just taking it out, rebooting, and sticking it back in?
[04:23] <Fantazyia> /who
[04:23] <genii> steven_: Alternately, you could just give the client machine a static IP also on same range if all they need to do is talk to each other
[04:23] <steven_> genii: i just configured eth0 to have a static ip and they work
[04:24] <denni> Brb.
[04:24] <Milos_SD> no, I have not try that ...
[04:24] <genii> steven_: Good :)
[04:25] <steven_> genii: but i wanna use a dhcp server.. i want to learn how to set up a network with dhcp.. (i already have a router so i could connect both pcs to them :P)
[04:25] <Milos_SD> but, I taked mouse out when Ubuntu was on ... And that day, I turnd it off ...
[04:25] <Arso> alaQ: resolution not fixed :(
[04:25] <alaQ> Arso: hrm...
[04:25] <Arso> alaQ: can u make sure i edited the file right?
[04:25] <Arso> alaQ:  maybe i did something wrong.
[04:26] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  You are losing connection briefly (3 bits/your processor speed) so you best case scenario is that there is a bad connection right now, worse case your mouse needs to be replaced or is not compatible with Linux (which is why I ask the model), worst case you have a faulty motherboard at the mouse connection
[04:26] <genii> steven_: dhcp3-server is pretty good for a LAN
[04:26] <alaQ> Arso: put it up onto pastebin, along with /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:26] <francesconikit> hi
[04:26] <Arso> alaQ:  can u please tell me how to open it again. and whats /var/log/xorg. etc
[04:26] <steven_> genii: ok wait a sec i neet to change the other pc to dhcp and get an ip form my router before isntalloing packets :P 1 min
[04:26] <alaQ> !pastebin
[04:26] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:27] <genii> steven_: I'll ssh into my dhcp server and pull up some conf file
[04:27] <alaQ> Arso: just copy the contents of those two files, and put them on pastebin
[04:27] <Milos_SD> Ok, thanks univremonster  .... I will try to buy a new mouse (I was planing to do that). What wireless mouse do you thik will work best with Ubuntu?
[04:27] <Arso> alaQ:  umm, how do i open the files :S . (this must be boring for you , sorry)
[04:28] <geartrooper> has a fix been found for powernowd:directory nonexistent?
[04:28] <taxman> the next LTS is slated to be 8.04, right?
[04:28] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  No, I just asked about that because if you had some sort of interference between the mouse and receiver it could cause that problem.  Before buying a new mouse, you might try going to Synaptec and reinstalling your mouse drivers.  But I think you are doing the right thing
[04:28] <steven_> genii: ok package installed, but the daemon failed to start (i thing it is normal due to wrong conf)
[04:28] <alaQ> Arso: It's fine, I'm here to help.  in a terminal, type gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and paste the contents to pastebin.  Rinse and repeat for /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:29] <genii> steven_ Yeah that is fine. i am making you a custom one and will pastebin it for you to copy shortly :)
[04:29] <steven_> genii: tnx :)
[04:29] <Arso> alaQ:  heres teh first one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30546/
[04:29] <Arso> alaQ:  the*
[04:29] <Milos_SD> I know why you asket about wireless mose. Mouse drivers? And that is what package? :D
[04:30] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  Your mouse drivers should be in with the other I/O drivers which are located in xserver
[04:31] <Arso> alaQ:  heres the second one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30547/
[04:31] <univremonster> Milos_SD: I believe it's xserver-xorg-input-mouse
[04:31] <Milos_SD> Thanks univremonster
[04:31] <univremonster> no prob'
[04:31] <Kilroo> Which is typically considered the better option, MergedFB or BigDesktop? I'm on a Radeon 9800 Pro if that helps. Or is there no particular preference?
[04:32] <univremonster> can anybody help me set up launchpad?
[04:32] <alaQ> Arso: I fixed the xorg.conf file (the first pastebin): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30548/
[04:33] <univremonster> *bump*
[04:34] <Arso> alaQ:  umm, when i open xorg.conf for editing, it says its read only ?
[04:34] <tech404> any thoughts about how stable ubuntu server is vs. debian stable?
[04:34] <genii> steven_: Do you have some domain-name set up on the server? eg:your prompt looks something like: myname@thedomainname
[04:34] <Milos_SD> univremonster, It is not going to brake my X server by reinstaling that package?
[04:34] <Arso> alaQ: You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again.
[04:35] <tech404> you have to use su
[04:35] <alaQ> Arso: my fault:  sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf editing the file requires you to have
[04:35] <tech404> for xorg.conf
[04:35] <univremonster> Arso:  https://launchpad.net/~bruzzone/+editpgpkeys
[04:35] <tech404> or sudo in this case
[04:35] <Arso> great. thnx
[04:35] <tuzhila> hi
[04:35] <univremonster> Milos_SD:  You should be ok, but I've never done it
[04:35] <alaQ> tech404: thanks for the cover.
[04:35] <univremonster> Arso:  Sorry copied the wrong line
[04:35] <Milos_SD> ok...
[04:35] <tech404> sure
[04:36] <univremonster> Arso:  gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:36] <steven_> genii: no.. my porimpt looks like steven@steven-desktop...
[04:36] <Arso> editing now.
[04:36] <univremonster> coo'
[04:36] <genii> steven_ OK, I'll comment out those lines then, you can edit them later if you feel the need
[04:37] <naughtykid001> thanks univremonster for the tips just now, appreciate a lot
[04:37] <naughtykid001> got to fly, see ya
[04:37] <univremonster> naughtykid001: ?
[04:37] <alaQ> Arso: when that's done, just restart X, and (hopefully) we'll be in business.
[04:37] <Arso> alaQ:  great. doing it now
[04:37] <tech404> I am considering moving from Debian Stable to Ubuntu server for by gateway/firewall and lamp server does anyone have any thoughts? Places to take a look at the Ubuntu Server install?
[04:37] <yu31g7> I have a binary (specifically supertux 0.3) file. How do I run it (I want to install it). This is actually for mepis, but the linux room is full, the mepis room is empty, and ubuntu must be similar enough. Can anyone help?
[04:38] <naughtykid001> regarding the suggestion u give to taxman just now, he's helping me actually
[04:38] <Arso> alaQ:  whats the different between gksu and sudo gedit
[04:38] <univremonster> naughtykid001:  OK good, did it work?
[04:38] <tech404> gksu is GUI
[04:38] <Frogzoo> tech404: only that upgrade won't work for you - you'll need to clean install
[04:38] <Arso> tech404: i see, t
[04:38] <dyrne> tech404: i dont know that i would do that
[04:39] <alaQ> Arso: gksu is a gtk wrap-around for su.  sudo gedit runs with su priviliges, but under the user's X control
[04:39] <naughtykid001> univremonster: going to steal a CD R first, for it to work.  :)  chao~
[04:39] <tech404> I knew that... anything else?
[04:39] <Braxt> hey all .. quick question, I'm running Feisty Fawn with Beryl, and Totem only plays sound video. As far as I know my codecs are up to date .. Am I just Missing Something?
[04:39] <Arso> umm, when i used sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf , i get a blank page.
[04:39] <univremonster> Does anybody know how to set up a pgp key?
[04:39] <Frogzoo> tech404: check the versions for LAMP you'll be running are ok, & go for it
[04:39] <Frogzoo> univremonster: man gpgp
[04:40] <tech404> type X11
[04:40] <genii> steven_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30550/
[04:40] <Frogzoo> univremonster: or easier, install seahorse
[04:40] <Jordan_U> Braxt, open gstreamer-properties and choose the noxv option in the video tab
[04:40] <alaQ> Arso, just 'sudo gedit' then, and find the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file through the Open dialog
[04:40] <tech404> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:40] <Arso> pl
[04:40] <Braxt> thanks man
[04:40] <tech404> yeah thats a better idea
[04:40] <Arso> umm does it matter if X is capital or not?
[04:40] <Jordan_U> !gksudo | alaQ Arso
[04:40] <ubotu> alaQ Arso: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[04:40] <yu31g7> Anyone? I have a binary (specifically supertux 0.3) file. How do I run it (I want to install it)?
[04:40] <tech404> yes
[04:40] <Arso> thats why then
[04:40] <Arso> i used a small x
[04:40] <univremonster> Frogzoo:  I am trying to set up one on launchpad and my problem is that the terminal tells me it doesnt have a keyserver
[04:40] <steven_> genii: tnx
[04:40] <tech404> linux FS's are case dependant
[04:41] <alaQ> Jordan_U: kdesu for me, personally, but either way :0
[04:41] <Arso> ok, i have the file now, editing
[04:41] <dxdemetriou> how can I disable some tty? I have seen about /etc/inittab , and somewhere else about /etc/default/console-setup and /etc/event.d/ . what is a safe way to do it?
[04:41] <Frogzoo> univremonster: do it through seahorse
[04:41] <genii> steven_: Then you need do: sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
[04:41] <tech404> but like they said its easier to just browse there after you open the prog.
[04:41] <Arso> ok done
[04:41] <Arso> um, how do i restart X , without using any commands, no gui method
[04:41] <Arso> ?
[04:41] <Frogzoo> dxdemetriou: inittabe is no more with upstart you want /etc/event.d/
[04:41] <jo3nix> Arso, ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:41] <MarcN> Arso: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:42] <Arso> thanks jo3nix
[04:42] <tehtechman> yu31g7: "chmod u+x binary" and "./binary"
[04:42] <tech404> or <ctrl><alt><bkspace>
[04:42] <yu31g7> tehtechman: Are they just commands to type in?
[04:42] <alaQ> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace should only be used in emergencies, guys.  It's really nasty to X on terminating.
[04:43] <jo3nix> well he asked
[04:43] <steven_> genii: ok, trying :P
[04:43] <tehtechman> yu31g7: yeah... the first gives you execute permissions (they may alwardy be set) ... the other executes the binary
[04:44] <yu31g7> tehtechman: so do I replace 'binary' with the filename and leave everything else exactly as it is?
[04:44] <univremonster> Frogzoo:  I have seahorse and can see the key I just created.  How do I upload it to a keyserver?
[04:44] <dxdemetriou> Frogzoo, with this can I improve the speed and especially the memory on my pc? I ask because I am the most times on the maximum on mem with 512
[04:44] <tehtechman> yu31g7: yep
[04:44] <yu31g7> tehtechman: Okay, thank you
[04:45] <Frogzoo> univremonster: remote -> sync & publish
[04:45] <Frogzoo> dxdemetriou: shutting down a couple of getty instances won't make much difference
[04:46] <genii> Work, AFK 3-5 minutes
[04:46] <Frogzoo> dxdemetriou: not worth it tbh - a spare tty always comes in handy, especially on servers
[04:46] <genii> steven_:  Work, AFK 3-5 minutes but i'll be around
[04:47] <samsara> okay, what dataspeeds should I be achieving if I have a 7200RPM usb drive connected via usb 2.0?
[04:47] <steven_> genii: ok, dhcp started... let's try :p
[04:47] <arso> hey guys , its me
[04:47] <univremonster> Frogzoo:  Thanks, I got it working
[04:47] <arso> but from windows
[04:47] <andrea> deamaus
[04:47] <arso> i am dual booting, i messed up xorg.conf
[04:47] <arso> :(
[04:47] <arso> now ubuntu wouldnt load X
[04:47] <Jack_Sparrow> alaQ: Question, if you have all applications shut down and need to restart is it still that bad?
[04:47] <samsara> to write, that is
[04:48] <arso> tech404 u there?
[04:48] <arso> alaQ u there?
[04:48] <alaQ> Jack_Sparrow: memory-cleanup wise, it's still not nice, but I guess it isn't the end of the world.  I treat it as a last-case scenario.
[04:48] <alaQ> arso: here.
[04:49] <arso> alaQ i messed up xorg.conf, now its not booting up.
[04:49] <alaQ> arso, if you go back into ubuntu, will you be able to use text-mode?
[04:49] <arso> yes/
[04:49] <yu31g7> tehtechman: That seemed to work, but do you have any idea where the thing might have actually installed? I installed locally (didnt put in root password when prompted).
[04:49] <genesis> hello
[04:49] <swmiller6> arso: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:50] <Jedusor> helllo
[04:50] <arso> what does that do?
[04:50] <arso> restore?
[04:50] <kagemaro> arso - it fixes xorg.conf
[04:50] <swmiller6> reconfigure xorg
[04:50] <alaQ> arso: the above command will let scripts reconfigure the xorg.conf file.
[04:50] <bilss> hi
[04:50] <tehtechman> yu31g7: Im not familiar with the prog, but if you didn't need a root pass then the binary is probably in ~/bin
[04:50] <arso> great.
[04:50] <arso> so i'll reboot now and do that.
[04:50] <arso> see u in a little while
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> arso: There should be a backup of your xorg in there
[04:51] <arso> bb
[04:51] <alaQ> arso: also might have an option for display resolutions.
[04:51] <alaQ> darn, too late.

[04:54] <bulmer> no
[04:54] <Ercle> Could someone help me with beryl please? When i first installed it everything worked fine, but after a few weeks the bar at the top of every window vanished (the one you click and drag to move a window, and also contains the X to close it). If i change the window manager back to metacity the bar comes back, but i would prefer to keep using beryl if anyone can suggest anything? :)
[04:54] <JosefK> Is anyone else having trouble switching to/from vtts with an NVIDIA 8800GTS + nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new?
[04:55] <bilss> i do have a static IP cannot get one what are the options dynamic DNS?
[04:55] <Frogzoo> deeno9: no idea - but I suggest you leave passwd & shadow alone
[04:55] <gumpish> deeno9:  it's in cleartext?
[04:55] <kagemaro> Does anyone here know how to change your hostname on ksirc?
[04:55] <steven__> genesis: now it works!
[04:55] <Frogzoo> GoClick: does ifconfig -a show both nics?
[04:55] <deeno9> i just want 2 experiment a bit
[04:55] <GoClick> Yeah
[04:55] <deeno9> i dont want 2 hack r something like that
[04:56] <bilss> Frogzoo: thanks
[04:56] <deeno9> i just want to test, how easy it iis 2 hack my system
[04:56] <bulmer> deeno9, what do you want done?
[04:56] <genii> steven__: Back. You have it working now?
[04:56] <rohan> can someone please check and mark this bug as confirmed ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127053 ..  i am almost sure that it's a real bug
[04:56] <deeno9> just brutin MY OWN password
[04:56] <steven__> genii: yes :D it works many tnx
[04:57] <Arso> back.
[04:57] <genii> steven__:  You're welcome  :)
[04:57] <Arso> reconfiguring xorg was successful
[04:57] <Frogzoo> deeno9: this chan is for ubuntu support
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> good
[04:57] <Arso> alaQ:  do you still have the link to that edited xorg for the new resolution?
[04:57] <bulmer> deeno9, is that english? brutin? brute force decoding?
[04:57] <GoClick> Frogzoo:  yes it works
[04:57] <deeno9> yeah and i want 2 know, why my pw isnt in hexadezimal, isnt that a support question?
[04:57] <alaQ> Arso: did dpkg-reconfigure give you an option for resolutions?
[04:58] <Arso> alaQ:  yes it did, i selected 1440x900 , but i checked now , the max is still lower than that
[04:58] <deeno9> yeah i mean brute force decoding...
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Arso: God time for a backup.. eh?
[04:58] <bulmer> deeno9, it never has been a hex when displayed
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Arso: Good
[04:58] <Arso> Jack_Sparrow:  yep :P
[04:58] <deeno9> how can i make it hex?
[04:58] <genii> I have extended work to do so logiging off but back in 2-3 hours ... later
[04:58] <Frogzoo> GoClick: network manager seems not to like you fiddling with /etc/network/interfaces - but in this instance it might be necessary to get it to see the other nic
[04:58] <alaQ> sigh... I'm at a loss... Anyone know how to pull 1440x900 on a nvidia card?  Pass to Arso.
[04:58] <bulmer> deeno9, create a script to display the field as hex..
[04:59] <GoClick> Frogzoo: it sees them both
[04:59] <deeno9> and what ius it, it doesnt look binary...
[04:59] <pavlix> hello
[04:59] <pavlix> how do I leave a team in launchpad?
[04:59] <Latty> I'm using 3 monitors with Xinemara, And when I move windows, I'm getting 40-70% CPU usage from Xorg on a 3GHz C2D E6600 - is that normal?
[04:59] <GoClick> It just doesn't grab an ip or activate it if the other one is selected in the upper right hting
[04:59] <pavlix> just found it
[04:59] <pavlix> sorry
[04:59] <Arso> hmm, when i open terminal, i get a blank white screen.
[04:59] <bilss> Frogzoo: were you talking to me when you refered to goclick?:
[04:59] <mbone> help me ! I messed my Ubuntu partition and now Grub is failed to load !
[04:59] <Jordan_U> mbone, "messed" in what way?
[05:00] <mbone> now I can't access both WinXP and ubuntu
[05:00] <Frogzoo> bilss: nope
[05:00] <GoClick> Frogzoo:  I can see eth0 and eth1 in the network manager, if I unplug the cable from eth1 0 grabs an ip and goes to town, if I unplug 0 and plug 1 back in it works but it won't do both at the same time or switch if one is already working
[05:00] <bilss> Frogzoo: ok my fault
[05:00] <kagemaro> alaQ - Which video card?
[05:00] <Arso> alaQ:  when i open terminal , i get a blank borderless white box.
[05:00] <Latty> mbone: The ubuntu partition stores the menu.list, you need to reinstall ubuntu to give it that again.
[05:00] <Jordan_U> mbone, "messed" in what way?
[05:00] <Arso> kagemaro:  nvidia 7950gt
[05:00] <deeno9> bulmer what kind is it in the shadow, it isnt hex either binary either something i know
[05:00] <kagemaro> alaQ - If you are using Mesa driver, the new Mesa doesn't support wide screen res
[05:00] <bulmer> GoClick, what does "ip a" tells you, all your nick has valid ip address assigned?
[05:00] <Latty> mbone: Or just give it that file, reinstalling Ubuntu is the obvious easy choice.
[05:00] <adupuis> Hello, i'd like clarification on an issue : i just downloaded ubuntu 7.04 and i put the disc into my PIII computer system (Laumar). I click "start or install ubuntu" about 15 minutes ago and the only thing i see is an orange screen with the mouse cursor..almost as if everything hasnt loaded
[05:01] <adupuis> is this normal?
[05:01] <Arso> kagemaro:  its my problem, alaQ was helping me.
[05:01] <mbone> mess mean Ext2 partition, where installed Ubuntu, seem to be damaged
[05:01] <rohan> adupuis: no
[05:01] <GoClick> bulmer:  noooo it's not getting an ip from the DHCP server
[05:01] <kagemaro> Arso - are you using Mesa?
[05:01] <GoClick> It doesn't even ask
[05:01] <Arso> kagemaro: um, i dont know :S i installed ubuntu today
[05:01] <Frogzoo> GoClick: both nics get their ip via dhcp & both are on the same subnet ?
[05:01] <alaQ> kagemaro: pass to Arso - I'm out of ideas for helping.  He just did a dpkg-reconfigure, and I think possibly chose the vesa driver instead of nvidia

[05:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu dvd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:01] <AnAnt> !dvd
[05:01] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[05:01] <Latty> I'm using 3 monitors with Xinemara, And when I move windows, I'm getting 40-70% CPU usage from Xorg on a 3GHz C2D E6600 - is that normal?
[05:01] <bulmer> deeno9, on a C program you use getent() to get an entry off /etc/shadow
[05:01] <AnAnt> where can I download ubuntu dvds ?
[05:01] <Jordan_U> adupuis, How much RAM do you have?
[05:01] <AnAnt> !ubuntudvd
[05:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntudvd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:01] <BlackGhos> How does ubuntu work and play with windows domains ?
[05:01] <Arso> alaQ:  no , i selected nvidia, not vesa
[05:01] <GoClick> Frogzoo:  yeah DHCP both in the same subnet both into the same switch
[05:02] <Jordan_U> !botabuse > adupuis
[05:02] <Latty> adupuis: You'll need more than that for the live CD
[05:02] <mbone> I tried to recover it by Testdisk, but hell no
[05:02] <bulmer> GoClick, what does "ip a" tells you, all your nick has valid ip address assigned? <-- both gets a DHCP doled out address?
[05:02] <Fantazyia> How do i specify which user an application starts as ?
[05:02] <kagemaro> Arso - OK, I'd suggest getting the newest official nvidia driver
[05:02] <Jordan_U> !alternate | adupuis
[05:02] <ubotu> adupuis: 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
[05:02] <Arso> kagemaro: can u walk me through it please?
[05:02] <alaQ> Arso: sorry I couldn't get you up and running all the way :/
[05:02] <Frogzoo> GoClick: what's wrong with giving them static ips?
[05:02] <Arso> alaQ:  you tried :) ,
[05:02] <bulmer> Fantazyia, the uid of the program that launched it
[05:02] <deeno9> bulmer, i can read the shadow, but not the pass, it ist something like $1$SALT$HASH and the hash isnt md5valid....
[05:02] <Arso> alaQ:  but any idea whats wrong with my terminal? i get a blank white box :S
[05:02] <GoClick> Frogzoo:  our network doesn't work that way
[05:03] <kagemaro> Arso - I'd recommend going to #nvidia
[05:03] <Fantazyia> bulmer:  how do i change it to launch as root
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Latty: 40 to 70 dosent surprise me on that
[05:03] <adupuis> !Minimal
[05:03] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:03] <napster_> wats the command to delete something in terminal?
[05:03] <Arso> kagemaro: ok.
[05:03] <bulmer> deeno9, it was never been an md5 hash to encode it
[05:03] <kagemaro> Arso - they're a *nix nVidia support group
[05:03] <GoClick> The router is supposed to assign them 46 and 47 respectivly in the same subnet
[05:03] <Jordan_U> Arso, gnome-terminal ?
[05:03] <deeno9> bulmer what is it?
[05:03] <Arso> Jordan_U:  yes.
[05:03] <kagemaro> Arso - I just remember having the exact same issue with my laptop
[05:03] <adupuis> how much ram do i need for the live CD. i have many computers in the basement in which i can grab more.
[05:03] <Arso> kagemaro:  did you manage to fix it ?
[05:03] <alaQ> Arso: don't know on that one.  You can try pastebinning your xorg.conf again, so I can take a look at it.
[05:03] <Jordan_U> Arso, Does xterm work?
[05:03] <Frogzoo> GoClick: try settup up /etc/iftab
[05:03] <GoClick> k
[05:03] <Arso> Jordan_U:  whats xterm ..
[05:03] <Latty> Jack_Sparrow: Hm... That's not too great. Is there anything that'll be less intensive (as that's resource hungry, considering this is high-end kit) for tripple monitors
[05:03] <SlimeyPete> adupuis: at least 256MB, more if you can get hold of it
[05:03] <bulmer> deeno9, some kind of asymetric cipher
[05:04] <kagemaro> Arso - yes
[05:04] <kagemaro> Arso - I'm in 1280x800 now
[05:04] <Latty> as twinview seems to only work for monitors on the same card.
[05:04] <deeno9> but man shadow says, it is md5...
[05:04] <Jordan_U> Arso, A more basic terminal, from the run dialog try "xterm"
[05:04] <napster_> can any1 tell me the terminal command to delete a folder?
[05:04] <Absenth> I resolved my Missing Window border problem with Beryl and 7.04
[05:04] <Jordan_U> Arso, alt+F2 to get a run dialog
[05:04] <adupuis> ill go get 128 meg more and restart the process, i appreciate your time
[05:04] <Latty> napster_: rmdir
[05:04] <mbone> anyone help me ?
[05:04] <napster_> thnx
[05:04] <Arso> Jordan_U:  ok xterm ran
[05:04] <Fallen[oqp] > hi
[05:04] <Absenth> beryl requires 24bit color or it doesn't render half of it's effects, including window borders.
[05:04] <GoClick> Frogzoo:  "setup" doesn't seem to work
[05:05] <Fallen[oqp] > how to access the console installator on ubuntu livecd (feisty fawn) ?
[05:05] <Jordan_U> Arso, What happens when you run "gnome-terminal bash"
[05:05] <pawan> hi
[05:05] <mbone> I can't just delete this partition, since my data hasn't backup yet
[05:05] <Latty> adupuis: You might want to consider getting 512MB of RAM, it's pretty cheap now-a-days, and can make a big difference.
[05:05] <napster_> Latty: it says directory not empty
[05:05] <napster_> so wat can i do?
[05:05] <Arso> Jordan_U:  invalid argument
[05:05] <agent_laundry> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:05] <agent_laundry> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:05] <agent_laundry> help
[05:06] <Jordan_U> Arso, sorry: gnome-terminal --command "bash"
[05:06] <agent_laundry> get this when i install
[05:06] <PapaChub_> udev is setting my permissions wrong on "/dev/null" (and others)
[05:06] <Jordan_U> agent_laundry, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[05:06] <agent_laundry> ok
[05:06] <Arso> Jordan_U: white box./
[05:06] <PapaChub_> crw-rw---- 1 root root 1,3 2007-07-20 10:57 /dev/null
[05:06] <Frogzoo> GoClick: you will have to edit the file
[05:06] <Latty> napster_: Empty the folder using rm, then delete the folder with rmdir
[05:06] <deeno9> bulmer, "man shadow" says, it is md5
[05:06] <PapaChub_> ^660 should be 666 ?!
[05:06] <Arso> Jordan_U:  is there a way to reinstall terminal or something?
[05:06] <GoClick> Frogzoo: ok; I'll google it
[05:07] <swmiller6> agent_laundry: do what it says run 'dpkg --configure -a'
[05:07] <Jordan_U> Arso, sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-terminal
[05:07] <bulmer> deeno9, so ?
[05:07] <deeno9> bulmer, "man is often right, so im confused
[05:07] <Arso> Jordan_U: ok,
[05:07] <napster_> is there anyway i can delete the whole contents of it with 1 command?
[05:07] <mbone> If there is anyway to disable Grub and restore WinXP bootloader, so I can backup my data first.
[05:07] <bulmer> deeno may i suggest pick up a C systems programming book and look into using that /etc/shadow file
[05:07] <pawan> how to setup ubuntu on windows
[05:07] <Latty> mbone: FixMBR
[05:08] <Jordan_U> napster_, rm -r
[05:08] <Latty> mbone: from a restore disk/install disk terminal.
[05:08] <Jordan_U> !wubi | pawan Is this what you mean?
[05:08] <deeno9> bulmer, you mean i have to learn c 2 decode the password int a md5hash?
[05:08] <ubotu> pawan Is this what you mean?: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[05:08] <T-Connect> Later. Going to work.
[05:08] <PapaChub_> Also, "apt-get update" says: "E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room"  Why's that?
[05:08] <Arso> Jordan_U: finished,
[05:09] <bulmer> deeno9, i already told you, you cannot decode it that easy..its a one way (asymetric) ciphering
[05:09] <Latty> mbone: To make that clear, the restore or install CD for WinXP, there should be a Repair Console, or something. Use FIXMBR on that.
[05:09] <Arso> Jordan_U:  do i have to restart before it works or something? coz its still a white box :(
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Arso, No, no need to restart
[05:09] <Fallen[oqp] > does someone know how to have text-install instead of graphical stup ?
[05:09] <Fallen[oqp] > setup*
[05:09] <Some_Person> Finally, after a lot of trouble, I got Freevo installed
[05:09] <bulmer> deeno9, you also read the part on that man page about crypt() eh?
[05:09] <Arso> back sorry
[05:09] <univremonster> Can anybody help me with an OpenPGP key?
[05:09] <Arso> disconnected
[05:09] <agent_laundry> swmiller6: thanks..
[05:09] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - IIRC it's in the boot menu for the CD
[05:09] <Arso> Jordan_U:  its still not working. still a white box..
[05:10] <Arso> anyone has any idea why my gnome terminal is a white box..
[05:10] <Fallen[oqp] > kagemaro < what's the option's name ?
[05:10] <deeno9> bulmer yeah, but my english isnt really good i didnt understand all^^
[05:10] <swmiller6> agent_laundry: your welcome
[05:10] <Jordan_U> Arso, Did you do anything before it stopped working?
[05:10] <mbone> thank Latty, I try that, if it's still not okay, I come back
[05:10] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - Something like 'expert (text-based) setup'
[05:10] <Arso> Jordan_U:  reconfigures xorg
[05:10] <Fallen[oqp] > kagemaro < i don't have it
[05:10] <Arso> Jordan_U:  reconfigured*
[05:10] <Latty> mbone: Sure. Always try to help where I can :)
[05:10] <Some_Person> Arso: right click on the white box, hit show menu bar
[05:10] <bulmer> deeno9, okay..i've given you enuff clue...read a C systems programming book if you want further knowledge of it
[05:11] <Fallen[oqp] > kagemaro < i have the official ubuntu CD (sent by canonical)
[05:11] <Arso> Some_Person:  its already selected.
[05:11] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - Feisty?
[05:11] <Fallen[oqp] > yes
[05:11] <deeno9> bulmer thx, iwll c, i think, it is very big^^
[05:11] <mbone> anyway I'm in Ubuntu Live CD now , is there alternative way before I quit and use Win XP cd ?
[05:11] <Jordan_U> Arso, Just as a shot try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[05:11] <Some_Person> Arso: so you have just a white box? no menubar, window decoration? any other windows like that?
[05:11] <univremonster> I could use a little help decrypting an OpenPGP message
[05:11] <bulmer> deeno9, nah, nothing you can handle..you're a big boy..
[05:12] <Arso> Some_Person:  just a borderless white box.
[05:12] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - I downloaded it about 2 days ago, I thought I recalled seeing a text setup mode on the bootup mode
[05:12] <bulmer> deeno9, nah, nothing you can not handle..you're a big boy..
[05:12] <Arso> Jordan_U:  what does that do?
[05:12] <kurian> is there anyone who could help me to install the nvidia driver in feisty fawn???
[05:12] <Jordan_U> Arso, Reconfigures your xorg.conf
[05:12] <Some_Person> Arso: did you restart X
[05:12] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - bootup menu*
[05:12] <Arso> Some_Person:  when?
[05:12] <Fallen[oqp] > kagemaro < don't you speak about the Alternate CD ?
[05:12] <deeno9> bulmer -.- im not one of this wanna-be-1337-kiddys
[05:12] <univremonster> kurian:  I have a tiny bit of experience with this
[05:12] <Fallen[oqp] > i'm speaking about the "normal" CD
[05:12] <ben> I have a quick question regarding a laptop. It's an Acer Aspire 5100 with a RealTek Ethernet controller. Ubuntu says that it has connected to the wired network, and has an IP provided by the provider. It also has DNS servers listed. However, the connection doesn't work. a "ping google.com" returns nothing.
[05:12] <bulmer> kurian modules are loaded via insmod or modprobe
[05:12] <Jordan_U> kurian, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[05:12] <kagemaro> Fallen[oqp]  - You might be right, I tried a few different distro installations so might be mixing them up, sorry
[05:12] <Some_Person> Arso: i don't know what to say, i've never heard of that issue
[05:13] <univremonster> kurian:  mine already was present on the computer, but to activate it you need to go to System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers and activate it
[05:13] <Latty> mbone: Not as far as I know.
[05:13] <Arso> Some_Person: no problem, thanks for ur help anyway.
[05:13] <swmiller6> Arso: do you have a prompt
[05:13] <bulmer> deeno9, if you follow my suggestion, you not going to be just a kiddy..you ougta be a big boy.. ;)
[05:13] <Fallen[oqp] > ok
[05:13] <Arso> Jordan_U:  what does the -phigh do?
[05:13] <Arso> swmiller6:  whats a prompt :S
[05:13] <swmiller6> Arso: Are you logged in
[05:13] <deeno9> bulmer ^^ im on the way^^
[05:13] <Arso> swmiller6:  i think so ?
[05:13] <bulmer> deeno9, okay good luck
[05:14] <deeno9> bulmer but i think it will take some years till i learn c^^ thx
[05:14] <kagemaro> Arso - please take a screenshot of your terminal
[05:14] <Latty> mbone: By the way, try to prefix what you say with the name of whoever you are speaking to, it'll highlight them and make them notice the message more easily.
[05:14] <Arso> kagemaro:  let me restart X first please
[05:14] <Arso> brb. restarting X
[05:14] <swmiller6> Arso: when you reconfigured did you chose the frame buffer option?
[05:14] <Jordan_U> Arso, Without it it asks a lot of questions, the -p sets the priority of questions to be asked ( in this case only high ) in this case driver and resolution
[05:14] <bulmer> deeno9, if you put your mind to it, and dont worry about the ladies...umm in no time you are good at it..hehehe
[05:14] <Arso> swmiller6:  not sure :(
[05:14] <Arso> Jordan_U:  ok, rebooting now
[05:14] <mbone> Latty: sorry, I'll notice that.
[05:14] <swmiller6> Arso: if so run reconfigure again and make sure you leave it off
[05:15] <Jordan_U> swmiller6, It was gnome-terminal not his tty's
[05:15] <kurian>  have spend a lot of time in the forums there i use NVIDIA GEFORCE 2 IGP iam not able to install the driver by using the restricted driver manager of ubuntu feisty fawn nor iam able to install nvidia-glx through synaptic nor using envy script...my screen goes weired after i install the driver....I was not having any problems with dapper drake ...could any one help me please

[05:16] <univremonster> Can somebody help decrypt PGP-encrypted messages in Thunderbird?  I have enigform but it keeps telling me my key is wrong
[05:16] <GoClick> Frogzoo: mii-tool sees both of them just fine, ethtool says they're both fine, eth1 just isn't grabbing an ip via DHCP, where is that configured?
[05:16] <adupuis> I've now popped in 256MB SD-Ram into this box. Hopefully we will have better results this time by!
[05:16] <Arso> and i have a screenshot for whoever asked.

[05:18] <univremonster> skyfalcon866:  I have the same question
[05:18] <ben> Lattyware: It's connected directly to a DSL box modem.
[05:18] <Jordan_U> skyfalcon866, No, pgp is very secure

[05:18] <mbone> Latty: ok, I'll go and try... thank you much... I'll bother you more if not ok :) bye
[05:18] <univremonster> skyfalcon866:  It looks like in Thunderbird if you get  enigform it should work great, but it doesn't for me
[05:18] <Lattyware> ben: OK, don't know then, sorry.
[05:18] <ben> Lattyware: Thanks.
[05:18] <skyfalcon866> when i create a pgp key should i use the hightest bit avaible
[05:18] <Jordan_U> kurian, We have seen your question already, wait a few minutes in between reposting
[05:19] <xtknight> skyfalcon866, the higher the bits, the harder it is to crack
[05:19] <kurian> ok jordan_U
[05:19] <skyfalcon866> ok
[05:19] <univremonster> Frogzoo:  Can you help a bit more with the previous question about PGP?
[05:19] <Arso> alaQ:  sudo gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:19] <xtknight> pgp is among the most secure encryption available
[05:19] <Arso> alaQ:  is that right?
[05:20] <Arso> alaQ:  coz i am getting a blank page..
[05:20] <Arso> alaQ:  is it a zero or capital or small O
[05:20] <alaQ> Arso: it's a zero.
[05:20] <Arso> alaQ: thats what i used.
[05:20] <Arso> alaQ:  hmm
[05:20] <skyfalcon866> is protecting zip arciveves with  a password secure enough
[05:20] <xtknight> skyfalcon866, probably not, i read that zips are easily cracked
[05:21] <kurian>  have spend a lot of time in the forums there i use NVIDIA GEFORCE 2 IGP iam not able to install the driver by using the restricted driver manager of ubuntu feisty fawn nor iam able to install nvidia-glx through synaptic nor using envy script...my screen goes weired after i install the driver....I was not having any problems with dapper drake ...could any one help me please
[05:21] <skyfalcon866> so i should go with pgp then
[05:21] <xtknight> skyfalcon866, yeah
[05:21] <skyfalcon866> ok
[05:21] <skyfalcon866> is seahorse a good program for pgp
[05:21] <Anlar> kurian: I think geforce 2 is so insanely old, that you should just use the open source nv driver...
[05:21] <alaQ> Arso: can you try 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[05:21] <xtknight> !pgp
[05:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pgp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:21] <xtknight> skyfalcon866,  not sure i never used it
[05:22] <Arso> alaQ:  i already browsed to it manually, and opened it.
[05:22] <Arso> alaQ:  but its in read only now..
[05:22] <Arso> !pastebin

[05:26] <Arso> alaQ:  u stilll there?

[05:27] <jetscreamer> kurian needs the legacy driver not the regular btw, probably had the regular

[05:27] <KI4IKL> Does anyone know a good program to rip dvd's?
[05:27] <kyja> wow I am outdoors in a camper, my wifi suffers awfuly !!!.
[05:27] <Anlar> jetscreamer/kurian: yeah and for that chipset the open source nv driver is just as good afaik.. so he wouldn't have to install anything actually
[05:27] <Absenth> Arso: what's your default color depth in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[05:28] <capnfantasmo> hello all
[05:28] <jetscreamer> kurian: you need the .. what he said
[05:28] <kurian> nvidia-glx-legacy failed to work
[05:28] <KI4IKL> swmiller6, is it in the ubuntu repos?
[05:29] <alaQ> Arso: I think I might have found it; we need to edit xorg.conf again though.
[05:29] <swmiller6> kurian: yes
[05:29] <Arso> alaQ: Absenth heres my current xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30556/
[05:29] <Arso> what must we edit?
[05:29] <swmiller6> KI4IKL: sorry I think so
[05:29] <capnfantasmo> does ubuntu have a built in firewall? cuz my torrent program just told me I need to forward ports
[05:30] <Anlar> capnfantasmo: not enabled by default
[05:30] <swmiller6> KI4IKL: You kno wI think I used Automatix to install it
[05:30] <xtknight> capnfantasmo, it is not enabled by default
[05:30] <caren> How do I set up a printer in xubuntu?  Can't find a setup dialog and cups is acting weird
[05:30] <xtknight> !automatix
[05:30] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:30] <KI4IKL> Okay
[05:30] <Arso> is there a need for firewalls and antivirus in ubuntu ?
[05:30] <capnfantasmo> Anlar: how does I enabled firewall?
[05:30] <xtknight> Arso, not generally
[05:30] <kurian> IS THERE ANY ONE WHO COULD HELP ME  have spend a lot of time there i use NVIDIA GEFORCE 2 IGP iam not able to install the driver by using the restricted driver manager of ubuntu feisty fawn nor iam able to install nvidia-glx through synaptic nor using envy script...my screen goes weired after i install the driver....I was not having any problems with dapper drake ...could any one help me please
[05:30] <capnfantasmo> Anlar: disregard that
[05:30] <Arso> xtknight: great.
[05:30] <Absenth> Arso: going to /msg you a few lines.
[05:30] <xtknight> Arso, if you're running a server or have critical data it might be a good idea.  otherwise you dont really need it
[05:31] <Arso> Absenth: can u just edit my xorg and pastebin it? please
[05:31] <royel> kurian: you need to be using nvidia-glx-legacy
[05:31] <swmiller6> kurian: install nvidia-glx-Legacy
[05:31] <Arso> Absenth:  because , i dont really trust myself, first day on ubuntu
[05:31] <KI4IKL> kurian, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy
[05:31] <kurian> i have installed but it didnt worked
[05:31] <xtknight> kurian, legacy, not the normal one.
[05:31] <xtknight> nvidia-glx is not what to install
[05:31] <kurian> in the dapper drake i installed nvidia - glx it worked
[05:31] <KI4IKL> Arso, if you want a good firewall, sudo apt-get install firestarter then to use firestarter type sudo firestarter
[05:31] <xtknight> kurian, yes and nvidia updated the driver.s  nvidia-glx no longer works!
[05:32] <alaQ> Arso: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30557/ <-- changed.  Added a Mode line, and the respective resolution
[05:32] <royel> kurian: you asked for help, now try the suggestions or quit spamming
[05:32] <xtknight> nvidia dropepd support for GF2 in nvidia-glx
[05:32] <Arso> KI4IKL: i dont really need a firewall.
[05:32] <kurian> is it so
[05:32] <kurian> ???
[05:32] <illriginal> Hey guys, my adesklets stopped working...  now when I log on, they no longer load up. I typed into terminal: illriginal@illriginal:~$ adesklets
[05:32] <kurian> is it so xtknight???
[05:32] <praveen> hey where can i get help on php and xml ?
[05:32] <xtknight> kurian, yes
[05:32] <Arso> KI4IKL: not a server or anything
[05:32] <capnfantasmo> praveen: the internet
[05:32] <KI4IKL> illriginal,  you mean gdesklets?
[05:32] <alaQ> Arso: I'll explain the background on that when we get it working. :)
[05:32] <kurian> then why the restricted driver doesnt select that
[05:32] <KI4IKL> oh...my bad
[05:32] <Absenth> Arso: try.....  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30558/
[05:32] <illriginal> No I mean specifically the adesklets :P
[05:32] <Arso> alaQ: Absenth which one should i use.
[05:33] <Absenth> Arso: note option changes under the nvidia device section
[05:33] <xtknight> kurian, i don't know.  maybe it is a bug.  file a bug report at launchpad
[05:33] <kurian> xtknight then why the restricted driver doesnt select the appropriate legacy driver
[05:33] <xtknight> !launchpad
[05:33] <Hadron> anyone here using seahorse-agent?
[05:33] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[05:33] <Arso> alaQ: Absenth both of you gave me an edit xorg.conf , which should i use.
[05:33] <kurian> hmm
[05:33] <jetscreamer> #php
[05:33] <Absenth> Arso: try alaQ's
[05:33] <caren> why won't cups take a username and pass?
[05:33] <Arso> Absenth:  ok.
[05:33] <KI4IKL> kurian, ...why not worry why It didn't do it and just install it?
[05:33] <alaQ> Absenth: what on Arso's xorg.conf did you fix?  I fixed resolution.
[05:33] <caren> I've even give root a password and tried that
[05:33] <Absenth> Arso: I'm pretty new to this compiz/beryl thing, just got mine fixed a half hour ago.
[05:34] <Absenth> alaQ: I added a number of nVidia specific options for Beryl to play nice.
[05:34] <jetscreamer> kurian: it will work.if you do it right.
[05:34] <alaQ> Absenth: ah, ok.
[05:34] <capnfantasmo> anyone know how to make the desktop effects work?
[05:34] <alaQ> Saw that after looking through.
[05:34] <illriginal> Hey guys, my adesklets stopped working...  now when I log on, they no longer load up. I typed into terminal: illriginal@illriginal:~$ adesklets   Can anyone help me to get them runnin again?
[05:34] <KI4IKL> Does anyone know if you can get Compiz-fuzion for feisty?
[05:34] <Arso> alaQ: Absenth ok finished editing with alaQ's new one, restarting X now, brb
[05:34] <Anlar> illriginal: I can help you by putting you into ignore for good
[05:35] <illriginal> good anlar, do it
[05:35] <KI4IKL> illriginal, when you type adesklets, does it start back up?
[05:35] <kurian> ok guys i will try the nvidia-legacy....if it didnt work i will post again....
[05:35] <swmiller6>  KI4IKL: yes I am running it right now
[05:35] <KI4IKL> huh swmiller6 ?
[05:35] <swmiller6> Compiz fusion
[05:35] <alaQ> KI4IKL: consult the oracle (google): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481314
[05:35] <illriginal> KIAIKL, when I do, my PC acts like it's gonna load them.... I can hear my processor a bit... but nothing happens.
[05:35] <KI4IKL> oh...coudl you pm me about it?
[05:36] <jetscreamer> so do stock ubuntu kernels have paravirt_ops enabled? how do the restricted drivers deal with that kernel option
[05:36] <xtknight> jetscreamer, i believe there is a patch
[05:36] <univremonster> can somebody help me decrypt PGP?
[05:36] <KI4IKL> okay illriginal just go to System>Preferences>Session and add adesklets to startup
[05:36] <xtknight> jetscreamer, actually i think only 2.6.21 and on had problems.  not sure
[05:37] <jetscreamer> xtknight: yes .21 but maybe .20 i forget...
[05:37] <jetscreamer> NOT .18
[05:37] <xtknight> jetscreamer,  but yes paravirt=y in 2.6.20-16-generic
[05:37] <mon^rch> anyone able to tell me the name of the app for a keyboard (as in music keyboard) I reinstalled and for got :P
[05:38] <illriginal> KIAIKL, when I check my current sessions, it has a question mark where it reads, "state"  what does this mean?
[05:38] <xtknight> mon^rch, maybe GNU solfege?
[05:38] <jetscreamer> dpkg -l |grep -i keyboard maybe, or some portion of the program name
[05:38] <illriginal> it has a question mark for my adesklets
[05:39] <univremonster> sorry, as per previous post, can anyone help me to decrypt GPG
[05:39] <xtknight> apt-cache search keyboard
[05:39] <pawan> hi
[05:39] <jetscreamer> he's already got it installed though so the dpkg -l might cut down the false positives
[05:39] <jetscreamer> was my though
[05:39] <jetscreamer> t
[05:39] <schmik07> hi, any chance someone can help me to install a .run file?
[05:39] <xtknight> jetscreamer, ah i thought he meant reinstalled ubuntu
[05:39] <tehtechman> univremonster: gpg -d
[05:39] <pawan> what is wubi
[05:40] <ale1> can anyone tell me how to change the runlevel at boot in grub?
[05:40] <jetscreamer> schilling: chmod +x file.run && sh blah.run
[05:40] <jetscreamer> ale1: iirc it's in inittab but i forget
[05:40] <mon^rch> xtknight: tyvm for the suggestion... I found "vkeybd" also
[05:40] <univremonster> tehtechman:  Sorry, I'm a bit of a n00b and while that looks conspicuously like something I would put in the terminal I'm not sure what syntax to use
[05:40] <alaQ> pawan: wubi is an ubuntu install for use from within windows.  Keeps a hd image file instead of partitioning disks, so it runs internally on windows.  Used for a try-before-you-buy style.
[05:41] <skulrid> [chii] : is that a way to set WINDOWS XP, as the first option in the dual boot menu GRUB ???
 I installed Ubuntu, and it hasn't recognized my sound card, it appears. Help?
 ok, let me wave my magic wand of understanding and i'll immediately know what type of soundcard/chipset you have and what your logs say
 Naturally, I'd give you any logs that may be useful if you tell  me where I can find them.
 I have a Creative Soundblaster Live! 5.1.
[05:41] <schmik07> i can't access the .run file - it's on the desktop by i don't know how to cd into the desktop :(
 Thing is, when I, in the past, installed previous version of Ubuntu (from scratch each time, and this time too), it worked automatically. So I guess I'm asking where I can relaunch the detecting software.
[05:41] <tehtechman> univremonster: its cool.  go to a term, type "man gpg", the command ur looking for is "gpg -d"
[05:41] <jetscreamer> snd_emu10k1
[05:41] <jetscreamer> works just fine here
[05:41] <ale1> jetscreamer: how to i change anything at inittab at boot?
[05:41] <Arso> :(
[05:41] <Arso> X got messed up again
[05:41] <Arso> i had to reconfigure again
[05:42] <Arso> lucky i had the command written down "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:42] <jetscreamer> ale1: with a text editor... but ALWAYS make a backup first
[05:42] <univremonster> tehtechman:  I tried that, so does that mean that I need to download the file I am decrypting, go to the folder it's in and say gpg -d filename?
[05:42] <swmiller6> Arso: are you choosing the resolution when you reconfigure or are you letting it choose
[05:42] <mon^rch> also... can anyone tell me what to install to get KDE... JUST the desktop manager... I don't want all the apps that come with kubuntu, or the "kde" package in multiverse :/
[05:42] <Arso> swmiller6: i am choosing.
[05:42] <tehtechman> yep
[05:42] <tehtechman> univremonster: yep
[05:42] <swmiller6> Arso don't
[05:42] <Arso> swmiller6: i think i am editing xorg incorrectly
[05:42] <Arso> swmiller6:  oh :S
[05:42] <jetscreamer> try kde-core maybe
[05:42] <mon^rch> ty
[05:43] <Arso> i just checked IT WORKED
[05:43] <ale1> isn't inittab a system file though?
[05:43] <Arso> i am on the right resolution now
[05:43] <swmiller6> Arso: read each selectioon word for srod when you reconfigure
[05:43] <Arso> i just need the right refresh rate now, the max is 54 here :S
[05:43] <Arso> i need 75
[05:43] <Arso> alaQ:  are you there?
[05:43] <alaQ> Arso: here.
[05:43] <jetscreamer> ale1: if you break inittab your system might not boot yes
[05:43] <Arso> alaQ:  it worked: )
[05:43] <jetscreamer> not sure
[05:43] <Arso> alaQ:  i just need to fix the refresh rate now.
[05:43] <alaQ> Arso: i see.  Congrats.
[05:44] <Chaos2tw> Hey.. I downloaded the Ubunto ISO from the website, burned to CD but I cant get it to boot ... Can anybody help ?
[05:44] <fzaly> help: how to install MLDonkey?
[05:44] <adupuis> That 256MB ram has helped out alot, it is installing and is already 55% through THANKS GUYS!!!
[05:44] <Arso> Chaos2tw:  is ur bios set to boot from cd?
[05:44] <univremonster> tehtechman:  I am having the same problem here as I had with Enigmail in Thunderbird.  It keeps saying I have the wrong password despite using cut+paste from the webpage (Launchpad) that gave me the password.  Any ideas/
[05:44] <ale1> jetscreamer: that's my problem it won't get past runlevel in the boot process, it shuts off the pc immediately
[05:44] <jetscreamer> Arso: apt-get install hwinfo && hwinfo --monitor, alternatively i find googling just the monitor's model number returns them best
[05:44] <Chaos2tw> No, I have to hit F12.  When I do that, I choose to boot from CD and then it tells me boot failed, f1 to continue f2 to go to setup.
[05:44] <swmiller6> Chaos2tw:do you have your computer set to boot from disc
[05:44] <Arso> jetscreamer:  what would that do?
[05:45] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: how did you burn it?
[05:45] <jetscreamer> Arso: it would tell you the v&h rates to enter in the advanced section of dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:45] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: you should tell your CD writer to burn it as a disc image. Don't just drop the ISO onto the disc as a file.
[05:45] <dyrne> does edgy up even use and inittab? what with upstart
[05:45] <Emo> Hi. I just downloaded Feisty, and I can't find info on how to get Broadcom wifi cards working on it. Everything's for Edgy.
[05:45] <Chaos2tw> I used the Daemon-Toolz emulator, loaded the ISO and used XP to burn it over.
[05:45] <pawan> what is wubi
[05:45] <Arso> jetscreamer: i see, so i still have to reconfigure it one more time :(
[05:45] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: ah. That won't work.
[05:46] <alaQ> pawan: I told you a few minutes ago.  Take a look up.
[05:46] <Arso> jetscreamer:  do you know about my terminal problem?
[05:46] <Emo> Then again, I just googled it a few times.
[05:46] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: the CD has to be set as "bootable". XP cd burner won'tdo that.
[05:46] <Emo> I hate broadcom.
[05:46] <jetscreamer> ale1: if it was me i'd just start disabling (chmod -x) stuff in /etc/init.d (that is listed/has a symlink in rc2.d) till i figured out what was doing it
[05:46] <Chaos2tw> Does WinISO burn?
[05:46] <jetscreamer> but that's a hack probably
[05:46] <Chaos2tw> What would you recommend I use to burn it?
[05:46] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: googlefor isorecorder v2
[05:46] <Arso> jetscreamer:  i finished with that apt-get u gave me, where would the info on the rates be now?
[05:46] <skezzolo> Hi everyone
[05:46] <SlimeyPete> Chaos2tw: I can guarantee that isorecorder works, I've used it myself
[05:46] <jetscreamer> hwinfo --monitor arso
[05:46] <jetscreamer> at the bottom
 How do I change the battery icons on the system tray? I have edited every png and svg I oculd find but it stays the same.
 Did the same with the network manager icons with the same result.
 Am I editing the wrong thing?
 Not executing a required command?
[05:47] <tehtechman> univremonster: well usually a gpg file is sncrypted to a key... if its using a symmetric crypt then a password should work
[05:47] <Chaos2tw> hmm I wonder if I have that on my network somewhere.
[05:47] <Chaos2tw> isorecorder2
[05:47] <Chaos2tw> I do.
[05:47] <Chaos2tw> ok cool
[05:47] <menisk> skezzolo, hi..
[05:47] <jetscreamer> goodbye-windows.com
[05:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: isorecorder is great
[05:47] <Arso> jetscreamer:  um where?
[05:47] <bigcha> hi
[05:47] <Arso> jetscreamer:  typing that in xterm doesnt bring up anything
[05:47] <Chaos2tw> Once I use ISORecorder and burn it I will be able to get it installed, correct?
[05:48] <jetscreamer> Arso: sometimes, and i don't know why, hwinfo doesn't return anything
[05:48] <univremonster> tehtechman:  I have set up the key using seahorse, but I need to decrypt an email
[05:48] <skezzolo> Hi menisk!... is there someone who can help with my new ubuntu-install on my laptop?
[05:48] <Arso> jetscreamer:  :S
[05:48] <jetscreamer> Arso: might be related to x running
[05:48] <bigcha> I come from China.
[05:48] <Chaos2tw> This is great. This is the most help I've got--i've been hitting up forumns
[05:48] <jetscreamer> Arso: but it does work, also
[05:48] <menisk> skezzolo, I can if you like
[05:48] <Arso> jetscreamer: i can just get the rates online tho?
[05:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: yes, isorecoreder is free and a very small download, be sure to get the right one for your service pack
[05:48] <skezzolo> thanks menisk
[05:48] <alaQ> Arso: you said you have the refresh rates, right?
[05:48] <menisk> skezzolo, What do you need help with?
[05:48] <Arso> alaQ:  umm, no
[05:48] <Arso> alaQ:  but i can get them.
[05:48] <alaQ> Arso: 1440x900@75hz, right?
[05:48] <Arso> yes.
[05:48] <univremonster> tehtechman:  I think I will just email Launchpad support because I don't see what I could possibly be doing wrong.  Thanks for the command line thing though that makes life easier than using Thunderbird
[05:48] <jetscreamer> Arso: i find just googlinig the monitor's model number gives the best results for finding that out
[05:48] <skezzolo> @menisk: i've just installed ubuntu feisty fawn on my acer aspire 5630 wlmi
[05:48] <jetscreamer> nto the mak, just the model
[05:49] <jetscreamer> make
[05:49] <tehtechman> univremonster: unless it was crypted to your key... you cant decrypt it
[05:49] <Arso> alaQ:  yees.
[05:49] <skezzolo> everything's working perfectly fine except for the power led, that keeps blinking amber
[05:49] <pawan> are all the features available in wubi
[05:49] <Arso> brb toilet.
[05:49] <jetscreamer> Arso: try doing hwinfo in a console
[05:50] <univremonster> tehtechman:  It was encrypted to my key, and I've tried every combo I can think on their password.  I think something just got hosed up on their end
[05:50] <elad> Guys? Soundblaster not working? Help?
[05:50] <jetscreamer> arso nm
[05:50] <ale1> jetscreamer: it happened when i installed git-core, would that narrow the chmod process?
[05:50] <jetscreamer> must be xorg
[05:50] <jetscreamer> ale1: quite probably, but of course i'm guessing
[05:50] <alaQ> elad: 'asoundconf list', and if it's there, 'asoundconf set-default-card cardname'
[05:50] <skezzolo> @menisk: any idea?
[05:50] <menisk> skezzolo, not sure.
[05:51] <sam543643> how do i tell if im using tribe 2 or tribe 3?
[05:51] <Arso> jetscreamer: alaQ back.
[05:51] <Cybermatt> help ubuntu doesn't requgnize my Geoforce 7025
[05:51] <Arso> alaQ:  any idea what i can do with my terminal problem :( ?
[05:51] <jetscreamer> just wait for 2.6.23 Cybermatt ... :o
[05:51] <jetscreamer> j/k
[05:51] <Cybermatt> and i want out of windowa
[05:51] <ale1> jetscreamer: how to chmod when i'm on live cd though?
[05:51] <elad> alaQ, there's only one in that list (Live), so it must be the default one already. Any other ideas?
[05:51] <skezzolo> @menisk: thanks nonetheless
[05:52] <jetscreamer> ale1: cd to the mounted partition/directory
[05:52] <alaQ> Arso: not sure on the terminal, but I've got an idea on the refresh rate.
[05:52] <jetscreamer> Arso: you can just choose medium
[05:52] <menisk> skezzolo, shouldn't matter too much. If everything else works fine
[05:52] <Arso> alaQ: oo, what can we do about refresh rate?
[05:52] <jetscreamer> instead of advanced
[05:52] <jetscreamer> choose medium
[05:52] <Arso> jetscreamer:  um ?
[05:52] <jetscreamer> it gives you a list
[05:52] <jetscreamer> Arso: when you dpkg-reconfigure it
[05:53] <yell8w> are the dapper repos down ? :/
[05:53] <Arso> jetscreamer:  oh , ok
[05:53] <skezzolo> @menisk: so you think it's not some kind of trouble?
[05:53] <Arso> i'll do that then..
[05:53] <elad> alaQ?
[05:53] <Tassos> Hey guys, I am totally new to Linux.
[05:53] <alaQ> 'gtf 1440 900 75' in a terminal will give you an xorg modeline.  It goes into the Monitor section of xorg.conf.
[05:53] <Chaos2tw> hm, so I am trying to burn the ISO using ISORecorder but it's not listing my CDRW drive?
[05:53] <Arso> alaQ:  are you talking to me ?
[05:53] <alaQ> elad: not sure.
[05:53] <alaQ> Arso: yeah, that last one was for you.
[05:53] <menisk> skezzolo, Not tht I could think of? Power plugged in? Is it a low battery thing?
[05:54] <Arso> alaQ:  ok , i typed that in xterm, i got some lines, do i have to put those in xorg?
[05:54] <skezzolo> it always blinks except for the first time i boot into ubuntu
[05:54] <Tassos> I need to know how I can connect from my ubuntu desktop to my Windows Computer using RMP
[05:54] <Tassos> Anyone can help me out ?
[05:54] <alaQ> Arso: yeah, that modeline goes under the Monitor section in xorg.conf.
[05:55] <menisk> skezzolo, I think you're safe. Hopefully it doesn't do anything else.
[05:55] <Arso> ok, gonna edit now, hope i dont fuck it up as usual.

[05:57] <Whosits> I am running Windows XP, and I have used the Linux System Rescue CD to create a primary partition of about 1GB for GRUB, and an extended partition with a logical part in it of about 20GB for Ubuntu. I have a LiveCD disc, and an Alt-CD disc that can't install any additional software packages.
[05:57] <sam543643> how do i tell if im using tribe 2 or tribe 3?

[05:57] <jetscreamer> you do not want a gb for grub
[05:57] <Whosits> I want to install Ubuntu and get Dual Booting running. I'm not sure what to do next.
[05:57] <jetscreamer> for swap maybe
[05:57] <menisk> skezzolo, then install your binary drivers.
[05:57] <tehtechman> Tassos: what is RMP?  maybe i can help
[05:58] <jetscreamer> rpm?

[06:06] <LinuX_-_ubuntu> its Ubuntu-feisty
[06:06] <LinuX_-_ubuntu> so i cant use it ?
[06:06] <menisk> LinuX_-_ubuntu, you should try desktop effects instead, it's compiz may work.
[06:06] <Tassos> Which one should I use? That's not rdesktop is it?
[06:07] <tehtechman> Tassos: put this in a console ... "apt-get install rdesktop"
[06:07] <Tassos> ohhhhhh
[06:07] <Tassos> i get it now :)
[06:07] <tehtechman> Tassos: oh... the Gnome-RDP shoudl work

[06:08] <Arso> jetscreamer:  please try :)
[06:08] <Tassos> what's kde or gnome?
[06:08] <Nembie563> I have tried to install several programs with synaptic package manager, however, after I download the package I can't find the program in my start menu. What can I do to make them appear in the start menu?
[06:08] <Tassos> I use Ubuntu
[06:08] <jetscreamer> Arso: .... my telepathy is borked atm
[06:08] <tehtechman> Tassos: Its a desktop enviroment.
[06:08] <Arso> jetscreamer:  btw, umm, whats the program called, where u download apps through, adept or something
[06:09] <jetscreamer> there is adept, synaptic, many others
[06:09] <alaQ> Arso: Adept for KDE, Synaptic for Gnome
[06:09] <tehtechman> Tassos: if you installed ubuntu defaults... then ur using Gnome
[06:09] <Whosits_> Baktaah: Are you that poster, with that exact issue
[06:09] <jetscreamer> either or
[06:09] <Arso> ahh
[06:09] <Arso> synaptic,
[06:09] <Tassos> that's all new to me -  I  installed yesterday :)
[06:09] <Whosits_> Baktaah: Or are you just getting the same message
[06:09] <Tassos> I know I use Beryl also
[06:09] <Arso> Tassos:  i installed today, welcome
[06:09] <Baktaah> Whosits_  no not the poster, but exact same issue/message
[06:09] <jetscreamer> synaptic is very cross desktop
[06:09] <tofaffy> wow...I love compiz fusion...anyone know how to access the settings though?
[06:09] <Tassos> hi Arso
[06:09] <tehtechman> Tassos: :)  im constantly learning new stuff
[06:09] <Whosits_> Baktaah: So you can boot when you put in a read-only floppy?
[06:09] <Tassos> haha - I feel stupid ;)
[06:09] <LinuX_-_ubunt1> baack
[06:09] <alaQ> jetscreamer: as defaults, i mean. :)  I use synaptic all the time under KDE.
[06:10] <Arso> hey guys, when i open my gnome terminal , iget a white box, any idea how i can fix that
[06:10] <Nembie563> I have tried to install several programs with synaptic package manager, however, after I download the package I can't find the program in my start menu. What can I do to make them appear in the start menu?
[06:10] <Baktaah> Whosits_  I dont have a floppy...
[06:10] <tofaffy> Arso, are you using beryl?
[06:10] <Tassos> Gnome-RDP says that I need rdesktop, rightvnc, ssh, gnome-terminal
[06:10] <Tassos> for that thing to work
[06:10] <LinuX_-_ubunt1> menisk : so i cant use beryl ??
[06:10] <Arso> tofaffy: i dont think so, unless its on by default
[06:10] <Whosits_> Baktaah: Then you don't have the same issue. Reread the post you linked.
[06:10] <Fantazyia> Nembie563:  not all programs install a shortcut in X all the time, just open a terminal and type the first few letters of the app and tab to auto complete it
[06:10] <tofaffy> dunno then
[06:10] <jetscreamer> Nembie563: 'maybe' update-menus in an xterm
[06:10] <Arso> tofaffy:  k,np
[06:10] <tehtechman> Tassos: ok then... "apt-get install rdesktop"
[06:11] <Pelo> Nembie563, occasionnaly, there isnT' a menu entry escpecialy if it is a cli prog.  sometimes it just need a restart of X ,  you can try typing the name of the prog in the terminal it will start if it is properly installed
[06:11] <menisk> LinuX_-_ubunt1, no.
[06:11] <tofaffy> Anyone know how to access the compiz settings?
[06:11] <buck> can someone walk this newb now to set up mic on ubuntu or kubuntu
[06:11] <Nembie563> Fantazyia: Is there a way to create a shortcut?
[06:11] <Tassos> do I need to install all these or just rdesktop?
[06:11] <Arso> alaQ:  what do i recommend i do about my terminal problem :(
[06:11] <menisk> LinuX_-_ubunt1, Yt sure.ou might be able to use compiz, no
[06:11] <Tassos> and then Gnome-RDP?
[06:11] <myusrnm> Hey, when I click certain applications, nothing comes up.
[06:11] <jetscreamer> also the debian menu can have more entries than gnome.. gnome seems to prune
[06:11] <myusrnm> IS there a solution for this
[06:11] <Whosits_> Baktaah: It looks like that is a common issue - there appear to be a large number of reports of that, and it can appear for a wide variety of reasons. The one you linked is a specific one having to do with the floppy drive.
[06:11] <erUSUL> Nembie563: some programs do not put themselves in the main menu (some are console based)
[06:11] <tehtechman> Tassos: just rdesktop for RDP
[06:11] <yayan_> bule kabeh.. parah ..
[06:11] <Whosits_> Yeah, check out the debian menu
[06:12] <LinuX_-_ubunt1> ok can u give me ubuntu beryl for download ?? direct link ??
[06:12] <alaQ> Arso: not quite sure.  The only thing I can think of is apt-get install --reinstall gnome-terminal, but that's already been tried.
[06:12] <LinuX_-_ubunt1> i find all on internet i didnt find one
[06:12] <Pelo> buck,  if it is a sub mic try doing a search for the model in the forum , or for "usb mic"
[06:12] <buck> no .. its built in audio .. ac97 850 on the nvidia 4 chipset
[06:12] <Pelo> LinuX_-_ubunt1, ask in #beryl
[06:13] <Tassos> and I use the terminal for that right? apt-get install rdesktop
[06:13] <jetscreamer> Arso: what, you click the icon you get xterm instead of gnome-terminal?
[06:13] <Whosits_> Has anyone here done triple booting or greater?
[06:13] <jetscreamer> i have
[06:13] <Pelo> buck, type alsamixer in the terminal and make sure the mic isn't muted
[06:13] <Arso> jetscreamer:  no, i click on the icon, i get a white box,
[06:13] <tehtechman> Tassos: yep... im not really familiar with a gui way of doing anything
[06:13] <jungoh> I was using the nvidia restricted drivers from ubuntu repo, and it worked fine until last night my computer crashed and X wouldn't load up. Then I config'd x with 'nv' drivers and it works fine, except I can't play games or use beryl/emerald. So I tried to load the nvidia.com drivers but they don't work either, and #nvidia told me to uninstall as it's an ubuntu problem, so can anyone help me get this working?
[06:13] <Tassos> no worries
[06:13] <Arso> jetscreamer:  i run xterm on my own because its not working
[06:13] <Tassos> sounds simple enough - I will do it now
[06:13] <jetscreamer> Arso: change the colors.. yes it's white by default
[06:13] <Arso> jetscreamer:  it was working fine at first :s
[06:13] <Whosits_> jetscreamer, could you speak to me in pm for a short bit? I've got a few questions to ask, it's just very difficult to do out here
[06:14] <Pelo> Whosits_,  if you install ubuntu last , it will automaticaly detect other os and make the appropriate menu
[06:14] <Arso> jetscreamer:  and i try typing, nothing comes.
[06:14] <Tassos> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:14] <Whosits_> Pelo: I'm hoping to install Ubuntu first (well, second after XP)
[06:14] <alaQ> jetscreamer: he get's this: http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=terminalxo9.png
[06:14] <Tassos> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[06:14] <Chaos2tw> Ok, so I used ISORecorder and burned ubunto to disc, but it's still not booting.
[06:14] <Johto> damn my friend called me week ago and wanted to switch to ubuntu from windows xp ..but now, even i helped him like 40 hours straight, he told he went back to windows xp ..sigh...waisted time sucks :(
[06:14] <Arso> alaQ:  thank you
[06:14] <tehtechman> Tassos: forgot to tell you... you need to be root
[06:14] <jetscreamer> Arso: my guess is the font is white also... change the colors
[06:14] <Chaos2tw> f1 to retry boot, f2 for setup.
[06:14] <Tassos> how
[06:14] <Johto> but well, he was no pro user
[06:14] <Whosits_> I'm willing to play with GRUB to add in the other OSs
[06:15] <Pelo> Whosits_,  you can always add extra menu entries afterward but it can be a bit tricky
[06:15] <buck> how would i know if its muted .. will it have MM on it
[06:15] <tehtechman> Tassos: "sudo apt-get install rdesktop" should work for you
[06:15] <Braxis> Does the newest ubuntu no longer support 7800GT cards?
[06:15] <myusrnm> linux_ubuntu you might want to check the official beryl faqs, that's what helped me. I think you have to install quite a few things before you get beryl
[06:15] <Tassos> tnnx
[06:15] <Pelo> Whosits_,  ppl in #grub can be better at advising you on this
[06:15] <Whosits_> That makes sense. Thanks.
[06:15] <aijpo> sry all, might be wrong channel but might be not. In Internet, i dont remember my password but when i go to login, i see my username and a password turned into "********", but if i hit "OK", it will log me in, so i think the ***** can be converted to actual password. So is there any tips or way i could see it?
[06:15] <Arso> hmm, i am editing it , but its remaining the same..

[06:16] <Pelo> LinuX_-_ubunt1,  go and ask in #beryl
[06:17] <Tassos> so do I install Gnome-RDP now from the Add/Remove?
[06:17] <LinuX_-_ubunt1> no body answer me there
[06:17] <Narada> hi i can't find the package xml-twig-tools in ubuntu but i can find it on debian; what am i doing wrong
[06:17] <Pelo> Braxis,  look it up in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:17] <tofaffy> I am getting black window in compiz-fusion...how can I fix that?
[06:17] <Pelo> LinuX_-_ubunt1,  you need to be patient,  or also try asking in #ubuntu-effects
[06:17] <ubutom> should be under extras...security, or something like that aijpo
[06:17] <tehtechman> Tassos: if it isnt already installed... yes
[06:17] <bob__> has anyone had any luck installing a jre in ubuntu 7.04 i386?
[06:17] <jetscreamer> !info evolution
[06:17] <ubotu> evolution: groupware suite with mail client and organizer. In component main, is optional. Version 2.10.1-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 2478 kB, installed size 7704 kB
[06:17] <aijpo> ubutom: thanks, its in prefreences -> privacy -> show your passwords, well i think thats not what you meant but it helped, thanks!
[06:18] <jobo> I screwed up my apache2 installation so I want it to be completly removed from my system. (Including the configfiles and everything). I tried "apt-get --purge remove apache2" but it doesnt' seem to remove everything. any recomendations for reinstalling it completly?
[06:18] <Arso> :( :( :(
[06:18] <Pelo> bob__,  do it from synaptic,  search for  sun-java-jre-1.6 I think
[06:18] <ubutom> yeah, its exactly what i meant. :-) glad to be helpful aijpo
[06:18] <sllik> hi all, I have a ubuntu server 6 running, and for some reason I can't connect to ssh from another computer on the network. But for example the web server works fine
[06:18] <sllik> any ideas y?
[06:18] <evilgourmet> hello, I have a question
[06:18] <Tassos> should I ignore the " You are about to install software that cant be authenticated"?
[06:18] <Arso> yep.
[06:19] <Braxis> Pelo, so essentially the 7800GT (which is one of the most popular nividia cards) is only supported in 6.06
[06:19] <Pelo> sllik,  I tnink you need to install samba
[06:19] <evilgourmet> ringing the pc speaker from xlite...what is the device?
[06:19] <Tassos> Do I check "Download package files only"? I guess no eh
[06:19] <bob__> i did pelo, with no luck. i made a link to the mozilla firefox folder also, and the folder has a big red x next to it and won't let me change the permission
[06:19] <tehtechman> Tassos: it should be cool...
[06:19] <Pelo> Braxis, if the page says it's supported in 6.06 that means 6.06 onward
[06:19] <sllik> Pelo, im not trying to connect to a share, just to ssh
[06:19] <Arso> alaQ: jetscreamer thank you both for your help, i'll just use xterm for now, time to test some apps :D
[06:20] <Braxis> Pelo, does it include the 64 bit versions?
[06:20] <chrisjs169|brb> I just got five CDs from ShipIt, and on one of the labels, it says Totale waarde  5.00 - What is that?
[06:20] <Pelo> bob__,  I think you also need to add the pluggin
[06:20] <Tassos> ok ... installing ;)
[06:20] <bob__> i'll check that out. thx pelo
[06:20] <Tassos> Done - what's next?
[06:20] <alaQ> Arso: sorry we couldn't get that one fixed for you.
[06:20] <tehtechman> Tassos: run it... whats it say?
[06:20] <Pelo> Braxis,  the 65 bit version does not include support for many things,  I can't confirm that bit because I don'T use it,  we generaly tell ppl to use the x86 unless they have specific need fo 64
[06:21] <sllik> could it be that that ssh is configure on port other then 22 by default?
[06:21] <Arso> alaQ:  its alright, we'll fix it later. for now, xterm is good enough right?
[06:21] <Tassos> Terminal server client?
[06:21] <evilgourmet> anyone know which device is the pcspkr?
[06:21] <HEP85> Braxis: 7600GT is definately supported. I don't think they changed too much with the 7800
[06:21] <Tassos> Is this it? I see it under App/INternet
[06:21] <Braxis> HEP85, in 64bit?
[06:21] <jungoh> I was using the nvidia restricted drivers from ubuntu repo, and it worked fine until last night my computer crashed and X wouldn't load up. Then I config'd x with 'nv' drivers and it works fine, except I can't play games or use beryl/emerald. So I tried to load the nvidia.com drivers but they don't work either, and #nvidia told me to uninstall as it's an ubuntu problem, so can anyone help me get this working?
[06:21] <Arso> alaQ:  what random applications do you recommend i install?
[06:21] <Arso> alaQ:  i am currently getting skype and amarok.
[06:22] <HEP85> Braxis: yes, using package nvidia-glx-new. But it is a 7>6<00GT
[06:22] <buck> okay .. i can hear sound but unbble to record .. should i try rear connection ..
[06:22] <ubutom> you might try to remove the restricted driver, get your kernel sources, or headers? dunno, and install the nvidia-driver manual jungoh
[06:22] <buck> rather does ubuntu recognize front panel audio
[06:22] <Tassos> I guess that's the one... I opened it... I have to enter COMPUTER, PROTOCOL, UN, PASS, DOMAIN,Client Hostname, Protocol File
[06:23] <Braxis> So where can I check the supported hardware list of the 64 bit version of ubuntu
[06:23] <tehtechman> Tassos: Ive never used that prog so ur guess is a good as mine... you cal always "rdesktop <ipaddress>"
[06:24] <Tassos> so basically I enter my XPs IP, name etc
[06:24] <buck> .. i want to just say thanx to all you godz of the computer for the love and support you bring to this channel ..
[06:24] <tehtechman> Tassos: yep
[06:24] <ubutom> ip should be sufficient, Tassos
[06:24] <Tassos> Internal IP right?
[06:24] <Tassos> i am on a lan
[06:25] <tehtechman> Tassos: yeah
[06:25] <Arso> jetscreamer:  u still there?
[06:25] <ale1> can anyone tell me how to change the runlevel in grub? my pc shuts off immediately once it starts loading ubuntu
[06:25] <Arso> dont windows have topbars?
[06:25] <Arso> is that an option somewhere/>
[06:25] <_Scout> Arso, you can configure it that way.
[06:26] <Otacon22> how can i flush up dns ttl cache?
[06:26] <Arso> _Scout:  where from please?
[06:26] <_Scout> Well you can get the task bar on top.
[06:26] <_Scout> But you cannot get two bars.
[06:26] <Arso> the taskbar is already on top
[06:26] <chrisjs169|brb> I just got five CDs from ShipIt, and on one of the labels, it says Totale waarde  5.00 - What is that?
[06:26] <PriceChild> chrisjs169|brb, they must put a value on them for customs' purposes
[06:27] <Arso> hmm, i cant find skype on synaptic
[06:27] <_Scout> Hey, does Beryl, XGL, and Compiz do the same thing?
[06:27] <_Scout> Or is one more powerful that the other.
[06:27] <databuddy> !skype
[06:27] <PriceChild> _Scout, beryl and xgl yes... but xgl is not the same at all.
[06:27] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[06:27] <PriceChild> argh
[06:27] <PriceChild> beryl and compiz yes
[06:27] <Arso> databuddy:  thank you
[06:27] <databuddy> arso np
[06:27] <chrisjs169|brb> PriceChild: ok, so I can ignore that?
[06:27] <alaQ> Arso: if looking for random apps, use synaptic, it breaks everything down into categories.  also, check out http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html
[06:27] <_Scout> PriceChild: Why is it that I see xgl/compiz demonstrations on youtube.
[06:27] <PriceChild> chrisjs169|brb, yes, you don't have to pay or anything :)
[06:27] <_Scout> Is it that you must install xgl to use comiz?
[06:28] <Arso> alaQ:  i am using synaptic,
[06:28] <PriceChild> _Scout, xgl is a technology that compiz can use
[06:28] <Tassos> what I should expect to happen? I enter the info, click OK and nothing happens
[06:28] <Arso> alaQ:  but its better to have someones recommendation
[06:28] <databuddy> ooooooo thats an AWESOME link there alaQ
[06:28] <PriceChild> _Scout, i'd recommend you use aiglx is possible though
[06:28] <PriceChild> _Scout, further talk about this in #ubuntu-effects please :)
[06:28] <Frogzoo> PriceChild: xgl for ati, aiglx for nvidia
[06:28] <_Scout> Any specific reasons why?
[06:28] <_Scout> Alright.
[06:28] <PriceChild> Frogzoo, not true
[06:28] <Arso> alaQ:  thank you
[06:28] <Frogzoo> PriceChild: tis true
[06:28] <databuddy> there's also a thread in the forums for the same thing
[06:28] <Arso> umm guys
[06:28] <tehtechman> Tassos: what does "rdesktop <ip>" get you?
[06:28] <Arso> where do i control audio :P
[06:28] <PriceChild> Frogzoo, not all ati cards use fglrx drivers.
[06:29] <alaQ> databuddy: glad you like it. :)
[06:29] <Frogzoo> PriceChild: oh ok
[06:29] <Arso> i hear static even on the lowest volume
[06:29] <Tassos> tsmakrakis@toshiba-laptop:~$ rdesktop <ip>
[06:29] <Tassos> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[06:30] <alaQ> top right corner, there's an audio applet in the taskbar - right click, and you can open the mixer.  Play around with settings in there.
[06:30] <Tassos> tsmakrakis@toshiba-laptop:~$ rdesktop ip
[06:30] <Tassos> ERROR: ip: unable to resolve host
[06:30] <tehtechman> Tassos: replace <ip> with you windows ip
[06:30] <databuddy> alaQ also you can double click it apparently
[06:30] <Tassos> haha
[06:30] <tehtechman> :)
[06:30] <databuddy> Tassos put in actual ip for ip? XD
[06:30] <alaQ> databuddy: yeah, double-click works too.
[06:31] <nerdboy1024> i am having a problem with ssl
[06:32] <Arso> Add the Skype repository*: debhttp://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/stablenon-free , does that work on ubuntu?
[06:32] <Arso> or is it for debian only or something
[06:32] <squarebottle> If I go into "System>Administration>Software Sources" and select the option "Download all updates in the background," will that make it automatically download AND install all updates without ever asking me anything?
[06:32] <skulrid> is that a way to set WINDOWS XP, as the first option in the dual boot menu GRUB ???
[06:32] <databuddy> arso if it says it works in the guide it works
[06:32] <databuddy> :)
[06:32] <Tassos> rdestkop <192.168.1.104>
[06:32] <llama32> is there a simple way to create a VCD from a bunch of mpeg's [that haven't been prepared for VCD yet]  or hopefully other formats?

[06:35] <tehtechman> Tassos: did you enable RDP on the windows machine?
[06:35] <databuddy> then you can install it
[06:35] <trev_> this is gonna sound kind of stupid but can DVD+R burners also burn DVD-R?

[06:35] <mon^rch> my midi isn't outputting sound... any ideas to help it work, please?
[06:35] <tehtechman> Tassos: its not enables by default

[06:39] <Tassos> i checked the "Allow users to connect remotely to this computer"
[06:39] <Tassos> Says select remote users - it has none -- so I have to add
[06:39] <tehtechman> Tassos: that sounds right... is your user in the admin group?
[06:40] <Tassos> under object thypes I only see USers

[06:41] <josue_m> hi, anyone knows an alternative app to M$ project ?

[06:41] <Chaos2tw> Help!  I've used ISORecorder to burn ubunto to disc, and it's still not booting from the CD.  I used Nero and that doesnt work either?
[06:41] <josue_m> I mean opensource/linux
[06:41] <buck> having trouble installing 4 updates
[06:41] <buck> says somethign about my repository ..
[06:41] <tehtechman> Tassos: For that part you may need to google "enable remote desktop" or something
[06:41] <Whosits_> chaos: what happens?
[06:42] <kb2jaq> gnucash for micros~ money ?
[06:42] <Tassos> yea
[06:42] <Tassos> I will try figure it out
[06:42] <Chaos2tw> When I reboot my PC, I have to push f12 for my boot options.  I choose boot from IDE CDROM, the drive spins up and then it said f1 to retry boot or f2 for setup
[06:42] <Whosits_> sounds like a bad burn to me
[06:43] <Whosits_> or a bad drive
[06:43] <buck> how some it says theres and update .. when i go to install says 404 not found
[06:43] <lancetw> ls
[06:43] <buck> some = come
[06:43] <Whosits_> can you boot from any disc? like your XP install disc?
[06:43] <Chaos2tw> I have a recovery disc
[06:43] <kb2jaq> just mount the cd in windows and see if it has an .iso file or a pile of ubuntu  stuff
[06:43] <genii> Chaos2tw: You need to make sure you made the cdrom inside the iso file, not just put the iso file on a cd
[06:43] <buck> W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/q/qt4-x11/libqt4-gui_4.3.0-4ubuntu1~feisty1_amd64.deb
[06:43] <buck>   404 Not Found [IP: 204.152.191.7 80] 
[06:44] <Chaos2tw> genii:  I used nero and burned an image
[06:44] <Chaos2tw> I also used ISORecorder and did the same.
[06:44] <Wips> are there any major poker(Texas Hold'em)-networks with clients available for ubuntu?
[06:44] <Whosits_> I'm not sure Chaos, sorry
[06:44] <genii> Chaos2tw: Ok :) It is a common mistake that is made. Your image may be corrupted, try checking the md5 sum for it
[06:45] <jerrcs> Anyone know if you can get banned from WoW if you play the game on Linux?
[06:45] <Arso> guys
[06:45] <Chaos2tw> where do I find that..?
[06:45] <Arso> how can i broadcast radio?
[06:45] <logixoul> Hi. Trying to install Feisty on a laptop. Booted into the CD and pressed enter ("install or run kubuntu"), then it says "loading" and this phase takes like 15 minutes, then the "loading linux kernel" thing pops up and sloowly reaches 15% then freezes. Any hints please?
[06:45] <Arso> for 1/2 listeners only
[06:45] <jerrcs> Also, if I play WoW on Linux, how come the mouse is freaking out
[06:45] <juano__> anyone recommend me a cd burner for GNOME sort of like k3b in KDE ?
[06:45] <jerrcs> it just moves very quickly - dunno whats up
[06:46] <fjoesne> if you play wow on linux you have bigger issues than the mouse acting out hehe
[06:46] <logixoul> juano__: CD-toaster or something, not really sure
[06:46] <Arso> you lose your life!
[06:46] <juano__> logixoul: has it got a GUI frontend ?
[06:46] <jerrcs> fjoesne: no, i mean.. its technically impossible to move the mouse, like.. the camera
[06:46] <fjoesne> wow is like digitalized angel dust
[06:46] <Whosits_> Anyone know if the LiveCD allows you to choose where you install GRUB?
[06:46] <logixoul> juano__: it *is* a gui frontend :P
[06:46] <juano__> logixoul: xcd-roaster you mean
[06:46] <juano__> logixoul: ahh
[06:46] <juano__> logixoul: ok
[06:46] <juano__> logixoul: for cdrecorder
[06:46] <lucas-r2d2> Hi, I have got a big problem with my apt. It seems that I cannot install any kde-packages. If I try to install, e.g., kdesdk, it tells me that this package depends on some other's and say's my packages are crashed.
[06:47] <Arso> hey guys, what irc clients do u recommend?
[06:47] <fjoesne> jerrcs: i have no idea.. i'm running ati in linux, and ati in linux means enough trouble
[06:47] <kitche> Whosits_: not that I know of you could always do it by hand afterwards though
[06:47] <buck> install your ubuntu on a removable drive ..
[06:47] <Salmon_Maki> This installation tells me in the readme to run "chmod +x ~/bin/darkplaces" but when I try it says "no such file or directory" ??
[06:47] <logixoul> Arso: konversation
[06:47] <Whosits_> darn. Thanks kitche
[06:47] <Arso> logixoul:  does it work in gnome too ?
[06:47] <Tassos> hey! I think I got it
[06:47] <logixoul> Arso: yea, like any other kde application
[06:47] <Tassos> It poped up the win login screen
[06:47] <tehtechman> Tassos: :)  you did it
[06:47] <Arso> logixoul:  oh ok, thanks ;)
[06:48] <buck> what win log in
[06:48] <jerrcs> fjoesne: well, i had very good fps, good performance.. just crappy mouse movement
[06:48] <Tassos> I enter the pass etc
[06:48] <Tassos> and now it desapeared
[06:48] <orbisvicis> !pkginstall
[06:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pkginstall - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <tehtechman> Tassos: as long as u can log in ur good to go
[06:48] <kitche> Whosits_: I know the alternate cd allows you to though
[06:48] <BlackGhos> Anyone running VMware for linux ?
[06:48] <tehtechman> Tassos: the rdesktop window is gone?
[06:48] <orbisvicis> !checkinstall
[06:48] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[06:48] <Tassos> I dont see my destkop though
[06:48] <Tassos> yea
[06:48] <fjoesne> jerrcs: with an ATI card?
[06:48] <Arso> ok stupid question, after i mark stuff for installation on synaptic, how do i start the install and download ? ?
[06:48] <jerrcs> fjoesne: Not really sure to be honest.. I'm running Ubuntu on my Mac mini.
[06:48] <tehtechman> Tassos: of do you just see a windows with all black in it
[06:49] <fjoesne> jerrcs: how do you install wow on that
[06:49] <jerrcs> fjoesne: ?
[06:49] <fjoesne> jerrcs: wow comes for linux too?
[06:49] <jerrcs> fjoesne: I ran it under wine.. haha
[06:49] <Tassos> sorry, I didn't mention that I got the login screen after I typed "rdesktop <ip>"
[06:49] <Salmon_Maki> This installation tells me in the readme to run "chmod +x ~/bin/darkplaces" but when I try it says "no such file or directory" ??
[06:49] <juano__> ikonia: well my problem with nvidia was finally fixed, i installed ubuntu from scratch again, then installed nvidia-glx-new
[06:50] <menisk> Arso, hit apply up the top
[06:50] <juano__> ikonia: and then it worked
[06:50] <razorx> i have a problem... my gdesklets are acting strange.. :/
[06:50] <juano__> ikonia: seems that the binary package made trouble
[06:50] <miboes> miboes
[06:50] <Arso> menisk:  its grayed out
[06:50] <miboes> 080397
[06:50] <fjoesne> jerrcs: ah hehe.. but as an old asheron's call AND wow addict i suggest that you take this oppertunity to quit playing wow and get clean .D
[06:50] <ikonia> juano__: well done
[06:50] <tehtechman> Tassos: if you enterd a valid pass, and the login window disappeared and everything went black... then you should just be waiting on your win machine to sort itself out
[06:50] <logixoul> Hi. I booted into the Feisty CD and selected "install or run kubuntu", then it says "loading" and this phase takes like 15 minutes, then "loading linux kernel" pops up and sloowly reaches 15% then freezes. Any hints? Pretty please :)
[06:50] <juano__> ikonia: yep
[06:50] <jerrcs> fjoesne: haha, i'm not that addicted, dont worry..
[06:51] <jerrcs> fjoesne: I only have one good character, level 29
[06:51] <Tassos> i'll try figure it out - I am tryign again
[06:51] <menisk> Arso, Erm, that's weird.
[06:51] <juano__> ikonia: beryl and the rest also run finwe
[06:51] <juano__> ikonia: rest*
[06:51] <genii> logixoul: How much RAM does your laptop have?

[06:52] <skulrid> hi ppl, im editing the MENU.LST file on the GRUB folder, how do I set WINDOWS XP as the first Option on the list?? thanks
[06:52] <Arso> menisk:  i restarted synaptic, its working now
[06:52] <genii> logixoul: OK, so not low on that :) What is the CPU... normal or dual core etc
[06:53] <jerrcs> magnetron: correct. you know, the program which links 2 computers via one keyboard, one mouse, shares clipboard, and you can drag your mouse onto each desktop
[06:53] <ikonia> skulrid: just change the default option to match windows XP, eg: if its the first the option is 0 if itst he second its 1, the 3rd = 2
[06:53] <teenbeat2007_lap> skulrid: just cut the lines and move them up
[06:53] <akos> Hello! I have a 8600 GS video card, and I am trying to install the nvidia drivers. I downloaded the binary drivers from nvidia.com, but it complains about not having cmpatible kernel modules... Can anyone help me?
[06:53] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: you canmove it to the lop line of the options or there is a way to make it the default anywhere in the list
[06:53] <magnetron> wow, jerrcs.
[06:53] <Frogzoo> jerrcs: get the aluminium-alloy-smog theme & you almost can't tell it's not a mac
[06:53] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: Make that top line
[06:53] <jerrcs> Frogzoo: oh really? well, i kinda like the interface of ubuntu tbh
[06:53] <Salmon_Maki> This installation tells me in the readme to run "chmod +x ~/bin/darkplaces" but when I try it says "no such file or directory" ??

[06:54] <Arso> codecs*&
[06:54] <tehtechman> about using Gnome-RDM... someone else will probably know
[06:54] <jerrcs> Frogzoo: I am, :P I'm talking about synergy and ubuntu
[06:54] <dreamer> hmm, I just got a kernel panic when watching a youtube-vid

[06:55] <Tassos> How do I disconnect now? Close the window?
[06:55] <Arso> guys, what video player do you recommend?
[06:55] <logixoul> genii: 2.80GHz Pentium, single core
[06:55] <nuril_> is it african language?
[06:55] <ikonia> arso , its personal taste - try some see what you like
[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: If you want to post it to the pastebin I can show you easier
[06:55] <tehtechman> Tassos: Gnome-RDP... no... rdesktop... yes... there should be a disconnect in the start menu
[06:55] <jerrcs> Frogzoo: so, where do I get that theme now? :P
[06:56] <Arso> ikonia:  i used to use MPC on windows, is it available on linux, or something similar in simplicity and support?
[06:56] <evilgourmet> hello, does anyone know what /dev is the pcspkr so I can have my softphone ringout to it?
[06:56] <genii> logixoul: OK, so really weird kernel options should be needed for dual-cores. Did you try as kernel option   noacpi      ?
[06:56] <juano__> can someone give me shell line to mount an .iso file at lets say /mnt/cdimage
[06:56] <neverblue> how can I pageUp/pageDown in gnome terminal,  what hot key?
[06:56] <evilgourmet> running Ubuntu 7.04
[06:56] <tehtechman> Tassos: or you could just X the window itll be cool
[06:57] <genii> no dual-core kernel options needed, rather
[06:57] <nuril_> help me,, is there any linux family that has console like windows?
[06:57] <Tassos> yea = I don't see the Gnome window
[06:57] <Tassos> so I will try X it
[06:57] <tehtechman> nuril_: why would u want a window like console?
[06:57] <Arso> brb
[06:57] <logixoul> genii: um, I said *single* core but okay, Ill try noacpi. thx
[06:57] <tehtechman> nuril_: leard the bash shell... youll be glad u did
[06:58] <nuril_> many people doesnt understand with linux here
[06:58] <apit> juano: mount -t iso9660 xxx.iso /mnt/cdimage -o loop
[06:58] <genii> logixoul: I omitted the word "no" before the weird kernel options part :)
[06:58] <magnetron> linux is not windows http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[06:59] <nuril_> i mean some like linspire but more than that
[06:59] <logixoul> genii: ah ok ;)
[06:59] <skulrid> Jack_Sparrow just sent the pastbin to pvt
[06:59] <genii> logixoul: You may want to also try pci=routeirq
[06:59] <arso_> back
[06:59] <tehtechman> nuril_: oh you mean a disrto thats easy to use for windows users?
[06:59] <arso_> ah finally, konversation
[06:59] <Tassos> I created a second user on XP
[06:59] <arso_> gaim was so homo
[07:00] <evilgourmet> hello, does anyone know what /dev is the pcspkr so I can have my softphone ringout to it?
[07:00] <tehtechman> nuril_: Ubuntu should do fine for that
[07:00] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: I dont see anythin..  got a link number for me
[07:00] <Tassos> I thought that I can have 2 loged in - one from the XP and one user from my linux machine
[07:00] <logixoul> nuril_: you really dont need that, but: xandros, lycoris, mandriva
[07:00] <Tassos> no?
[07:00] <nuril_> techtechman : yap sound like that bro

[07:01] <genii> weltall You need all the slmodem packages
[07:01] <tehtechman> Tassos: nope... just 1 at a time.  that is unless you install "terminal services client" or something like that that costs a truck load of money per seat
[07:01] <weltall> it doesn't compile
[07:01] <nuril_> thx bro it help much
[07:01] <tehtechman> nuril_: np

[07:03] <genii> weltall: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190728
[07:03] <akos> menisk, it will not, because my card is too new
[07:04] <akos> menisk, i tried, it says my system does not need any restricted drivers
[07:04] <menisk> akos, I dunno then.
[07:04] <arso_> menisk: can u help with skype please?
[07:04] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: Line 12 is where you can set the default selection
[07:04] <menisk> arso_, I'm used to ATI, got no idea with nvidia.
[07:04] <Tassos> that's not good :(
[07:04] <menisk> arso_, You'll need someone else.
[07:05] <Tassos> so windows allows only 1 user at a time?
[07:05] <skulrid> Jack_Sparrow but now I just need to copy what u did rigth_
[07:05] <menisk> arso_, join #ubuntu-effects they may be able to help.
[07:05] <Brax-laptop> I get "AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable" when I attempt to boot to the ubuntu CD in graphics safe mode
[07:05] <arso_> menisk:  what are you talking about ?
[07:05] <arso_> menisk:  i am asking about skype.
[07:05] <weltall> let's see
[07:05] <alaQ> arso_: i'm afraid I can't help now.  it's past 2AM, I need some sleep.
[07:05] <menisk> Oh.
[07:05] <tehtechman> Tassos: I know.  Afraid so.  They make you pay for anything thats more than a little useful
[07:05] <arso_> alaQ:  ok, np, thnx for everything, gnight
[07:05] <arso_> alaQ:  i figured out the problem anyway
[07:06] <Jack_Sparrow> skulrid: Yep, check to see if you have two options for windows... but it wont hurt anything.. and as always make a backup..
[07:06] <menisk> arso, I think you need the media ubuntu replository
[07:06] <alaQ> good night.
[07:06] <menisk> arso_, just a sec/
[07:06] <arso_> menisk: can we pm?
[07:06] <Brax-laptop> I get "AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable" when I attempt to boot to the ubuntu CD in graphics safe mode. Anyone have any ideas?
[07:07] <weltall> genii it says  how to install slmodem
[07:07] <menisk> arso, I'm completely confused, was talking to akos and got mixed.
[07:07] <weltall> but slmodem is incompatible with ppc
[07:07] <menisk> arso_, I don't know about skype.
[07:07] <arso_> menisk:  no problem.
[07:07] <arso_> menisk:  do u know about proxies?
[07:07] <Chaos2tw> Whosits_:  I can boot from my win2k restore CD, but I can not boot from the Ubuntu install cd
[07:07] <Chaos2tw> sorry so long in checking, working and messing with this at the same time.

[07:07] <tehtechman> anyone knows an easy way to resize ntfs?
[07:07] <weltall> exactly
[07:08] <Chaos2tw> I dont know if this helps or not, but I am running a Dell Optiplex GX260.
[07:08] <Tassos> I googled and found this: thinsoftinc.com
[07:08] <menisk> arso_, God no.
[07:08] <weltall> it's only for x86 pcs
[07:08] <Tassos> looks like they are offering something that you can connect a lot of users on 1 machine
[07:08] <genii> weltall: Ok, didn't know about ppc/slmodem issues, sorry.
[07:08] <Tassos> is this what I need?
[07:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: I am running a 260 here as we speak
[07:08] <weltall> np :(
[07:08] <Chaos2tw> Jack_Sparrow: You're on Ubuntu?
[07:08] <stefg> Frogzoo: clever move.... slmodem only works for i386, that's what i thought
[07:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Yep
[07:08] <Chaos2tw> This is driving me insane.
[07:08] <tehtechman> Tassos: It looks promising
[07:09] <Brax-laptop> I get "AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable" when I attempt to boot to the ubuntu CD in graphics safe mode. Anyone have any ideas?
[07:09] <genii> weltall: Is this modem builtin to your ppc?
[07:09] <Tassos> but I dn't have to pay anythign to microsoft right?
[07:09] <Chaos2tw> I dont know what to do then
[07:09] <weltall> no
[07:09] <weltall> it's an usb modem
[07:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Do you get to the first screen start or install?
[07:09] <Chaos2tw> No
[07:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Then you have a bad cd
[07:09] <Chaos2tw> it tells me f1 to retry boot or f2 for setup.
[07:09] <tehtechman> Tassos: doesnt look like it
[07:09] <Chaos2tw> lol, I've gone through about 10 CD's and 4 programs to burn it.
[07:09] <stefg> Brax-laptop: what version are you tryinf to boot?
[07:10] <Chaos2tw> Can you send me the ISO you used?
[07:10] <Brax-laptop> Latest
[07:10] <logixoul> genii: okay, tried both noacpi and pci=routeirq and there was no change. I think thats because Im at the Loading phase still - the kernel hasnt even been started. Isnt that right? Also, I need to add the options *after* the "--", correct?
[07:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Check the md5 checksum and when you burn it burn it slowly, my old dell drive is a bit slow
[07:10] <genii> Chaos2tw: I'd say again: Your cd iso file looks bad, try md5 sum checking
[07:10] <lashmoov1> so im gonna toss a capture card in my machine, needs to record in HD, I like that over-the-air HD possibility, where should I be looking, and what price range should I be looking at?
[07:10] <stefg> Brax-laptop: that's gutsy tribe3 ? That is alpha. forget that and use fesity
[07:10] <Brax-laptop> No I mean latest stable non beta :P
[07:10] <Chaos2tw> where can I get the md5 sum checking software?
[07:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Nero
[07:11] <Brax-laptop> stefg, I'm running a 7800GT
[07:11] <genii> logixoul: You would need to put them before the -- but otherwise yes
[07:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Assuming you are in windows at the moment
[07:11] <Chaos2tw> yep
[07:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: and FYI.. I am dual booting
[07:11] <stefg> Brax-laptop: use the 'safe vga mode'
[07:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Nero has a freeware md5 tool
[07:11] <Brax-laptop> stefg, Safe graphics mode you mean?
[07:11] <stefg> Brax-laptop: yup
[07:11] <Tassos> did you get my messages?
[07:11] <Brax-laptop> stefg, That's what I was in when i got the error :)
[07:12] <Chaos2tw> let me load nero....Where is it located ?
[07:12] <PriceChild> Chaos2tw, http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/winmd5sum
[07:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: I dont have a link, just google nero md5 and it should come up
[07:12] <stefg> Brax-laptop: then you have to install by alternate and fix your X after install, i'm afraid
[07:12] <Chaos2tw> thanks pragma_
[07:12] <Chaos2tw> er.. PriceChild
[07:13] <Brax-laptop> stefg, why should I be doing this when ubuntu supposedly fully supports my card... and dapper had no problem with it
[07:13] <tehtechman> Tassos: me?  no
[07:13] <Tassos> I doubled click on your name
[07:13] <Chaos2tw> do I check the ISO, or the CD?
[07:13] <Tassos> and it opened a new tab
[07:13] <logixoul> genii: right, still the same before the --. well, thanks anyway ;(
[07:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: both
[07:13] <stefg> Brax-laptop: because it works?
[07:13] <genii> logixoul: Well, I tried
[07:14] <Tassos> still no?
[07:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: But note.. you still may need to reburn it at a slower speed for the old 260 to work
[07:14] <logixoul> genii: hey wait! it got to 100% this time :) with noacpi
[07:14] <logixoul> waiting to see what happens now
[07:14] <ale1> can anyone tell me how i can turn off the gui on the loading and see the loading checklist
[07:14] <Brax-laptop> Sigh, ubuntu has gone down the drain. It's failed and crashed on every machine I've attempted to load it on for the past week. I'm switching back to suse.
[07:14] <logixoul> genii: YEA! its booting. thanks a million!
[07:15] <Chaos2tw> Assuming I did this right, I check the ISO, copy and paste the MD5 results to the compare box, and then check the md5 txt on the cd correct?
[07:15] <genii> logixoul: Cool :)  You're welcome
[07:15] <derenrich> Brax-laptop: maybe your cd is bad?
[07:15] <Fallen[oqp] > when i want to install openoffice i get this /usr/share/fonts: failed to write cache
[07:15] <yell8w> uhm guys, which package is dig included in ?
[07:15] <tehtechman> Tassos: nope... i think pm is disabled here... not sure
[07:15] <Fallen[oqp] > and some other errors like this
[07:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: yes
[07:15] <Brax-laptop> derenrich, unless the CD checking utility lies... I don't think so
[07:15] <Tassos> oh ok no worries
[07:15] <Chaos2tw> Ok, it's telling me the results do not match so the cd is therefore bad, correct?
[07:15] <Tassos> tnx a lot for your help man
[07:15] <weltall> anyway can anyone suggest a modem compatible with ppc?
[07:15] <tehtechman> Tassos: I try... np
[07:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: correct
[07:15] <Chaos2tw> Ok.
[07:15] <teenbeat2007_lap> sometimes better is the dvd version instead of the live cd version i had this problem also in the beginning

[07:16] <Chaos2tw> Using nero, I would choose the "burn image to disc" option, correct?
[07:17] <Brax-laptop> stefg, I think someone should look into the 7800GT on 7.04
[07:17] <tehtechman> Anyone know an easy way to shrink ntfs?
[07:17] <Tassos> can I ask you another question... is there any spam protection software i can install for evolution?
[07:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: My Hp laptops refused to boot the the Ubuntu disks they sent me.  They self checked fine.  I made an ISO from them, reburned slower and they worked..
[07:17] <ale1> is it possible to turn off the ubuntu boot gui?
[07:17] <tehtechman> Tassos: There probably is... but i wouldn't know.. srry
[07:17] <abisen_> hi
[07:18] <Stwange> ive got a problem with ubuntu and my onboard sound card, it's squals continually when i use it - i've tried speakers and headphones, but same effect. Unless you can suggest a solution, do you think it's worth installing a different distro instead?
[07:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: YEs, burn image to disk but when you get time there is a freeware isorecorder that is very nice
[07:18] <yell8w> uhm guys, which package is dig included in ?
[07:18] <Chaos2tw> Jack_Sparrow: ISORecorder v2?
[07:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: It is a very small download
[07:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Get the one for your service pack
[07:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: there are two versions
[07:18] <stefg> Brax-laptop: there is someone looking at that, i'm sure. But the edgy and feisty kernels are far from perfect (read: hardly usable). So either you know how to build your own kernel after you installed by alternate, or you're better off using yast and rpm-hell
[07:19] <Tassos> no worries - really
[07:19] <Chaos2tw> Jack_Sparrow: I pulled ISORecorder v2 for xp SP 2, and that did not work.
[07:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: If you right click an iso do you see an option to write to disk?
[07:19] <Chaos2tw> Yes.
[07:19] <logixoul> genii: ouch. now Im getting another error "/bin/sh: cant access tty: job control turned off" - any ideas about that?
[07:19] <Brax-laptop> stefg, I guess I'll just switch back to suse because it actually works :)
[07:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: And it did not work?  What error did you get
[07:20] <Chaos2tw> Jack_Sparrow: It burned, but would not allow me to boot from the disc. Same errors as before.
[07:20] <stefg> Brax-laptop: leave a bug report, i'm sick of some annoyances, too. But not sick enough to switch to suse
[07:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Chaos2tw: Then use nero and burn slow
[07:20] <caren> I can't tell if my issue is ubuntu running samba, or windows being retarded.  Can anyone give me a hand?  I'm asked for a password (on windows trying to access ubuntu shared printer) and get denied
[07:20] <Chaos2tw> I'm doing that now.. burning at 4x
[07:20] <alvaro> cm estais
[07:20] <Chaos2tw> I'll be back in a few.. work calls.
[07:21] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[07:21] <caren> OR, I type in the address and share manually (\\192.x.x.x\printername) and just get denied.  "Widnows can't connect to the printer"

[07:24] <royel> caren: for the printer share
[07:24] <Jordan_U> dxdemetriou, Do you use third party repositories ?
[07:24] <arso_> swmiller6:  i know tor, it works on ubuntu?
[07:24] <akos> neverblue, thx
[07:24] <dxdemetriou> JohanSalim|NA, yes
[07:25] <neverblue> akos, if you want to use Beryl, then you will want to check in #ubuntu-effects
[07:25] <arso_> swmiller6:  but on windows, i would simply change the proxy and port to one in usa, and that would make skype work.
[07:25] <swmiller6> Arso: it is in the repositories
[07:25] <neverblue> then can help you with your card and beryl, if you like
[07:25] <arso_> swmiller6:  with tor, skype didnt work

[07:26] <stefg> nitrocks: ntfs can't be checked from linux, it's proprietary and 'secret'
[07:27] <neverblue> akos its really good to know :)
[07:27] <Jordan_U> neverblue, I disagree, I havn't needed to in a long time and X is needing an xorg.conf at all less and less
[07:27] <akos> neverblue, how do I know my LCD's native resolution? the beloved ASUS team decided not to include any specs with the laptop
[07:27] <taime1> how do i completely remove beryl?

[07:28] <arso_> can anyone help me with coreavc
[07:28] <akos> neverblue,  :P
[07:29] <stefg> Jordan_U, nitrocks : ntfsfix is no check, it just makes the drive look as if it had been checked. That's just a last resort
[07:29] <Jordan_U> neverblue, None the less it is a skill that is going to be  useless with future releases of Xorg
[07:29] <Quinn_Storm>  does anyone know of a good howto for booting a modern system(ubuntu preferably) from an image file in loopback mode? (i.e. root is a disk image, preferably just a simple uncompressed w/ ext3)

[07:30] <Jordan_U> maxagaz, At least if there is an fsck for HFS+ I wouldn't trust it
[07:31] <maxagaz> Jordan_U: why?
[07:31] <stefg> maxagaz: no. you'll probably make it worse
[07:31] <maxagaz> Jordan_U: what would you do then ?
[07:31] <alabanjes> Yo! Im running ubuntu on vmware and I cant get the network to run properly.. Im using bridged networking. Im trying to learn ubuntu "the safe way" before I remove my windows partition :) Cause the last times I just removed my windows partition and then everything was fucked ;)
[07:31] <dxdemetriou> now is safe to make a partial upgrade? never happened this for me before. I ask to know if it have something to do with official repos
[07:31] <ruzgar> alo

[07:33] <wladek> heya.. i have a fileserver that is currently running windows xp, thus all the drives have NTFS partitions.  i want to install ubuntu on this machine, is it worth the effort to move all my data, format an ext3 partition, and move the data back? or would it be satisfactory to just mount the NTFS partition?
[07:33] <exs> stefg:  I do not have a 2.5" to a 3.5" inch HD connector.
[07:33] <arso> anyone knows what i can use to broadcast radio for 1 or 2 listeners
[07:33] <Jordan_U> dxdemetriou, Yes it is probably OK to do a dist-upgrade but that sources.list is not the makings of a stable OS
[07:33] <stefg> arso: vlc
[07:33] <Master_Medic> hey
[07:34] <arso> stefg: vlc does taht :O ?
[07:34] <arso> that*
[07:34] <arso> stefg: is it complicated?
[07:34] <m1r> wladek , u can use ntfs, but ext3 is recomended
[07:34] <stefg> arso: google for 'videolan streaming howto'
[07:34] <Master_Medic> i'm installing ubuntu
[07:34] <arso> stefg: k ty
[07:34] <Master_Medic> and i want to make a separate home partition
[07:35] <Master_Medic> what should the sizes of the other partitions be?
[07:35] <dxdemetriou> Jordan_U, I know about the compiz-fusion that is not safe. are there others that may have problems or incompatibility issues later?
[07:36] <stefg> Master_Medic: i'd recommend 64 MB /boot, 7-10 GB / (root), rest for /home
[07:36] <arso> is it complicated to run utorrent through wine.
[07:36] <royel> Master_Medic: the entire install can be done on a system with 2gig storage, so I'd say 100mb for boot and the rest is kinda up to you, but 2-10g would be sufficient
[07:37] <genii> wladek: If all the users connectiong to it have different uid etc it will be an extreme headachew in NTFS. I would also recommend ext3 and to access from windoze the driver at www.fs-driver.org
[07:37] <Jordan_U> dxdemetriou, It is not a great idea to use a lot of third party repositories, the dist-upgrade is probably due to compiz-fusion but if any other repository requires a dist-upgrade that is a warning sign
[07:37] <Master_Medic> ok
[07:37] <swmiller6> arso: use ktorrent

[07:38] <arso> swmiller6:  transmission? is it as light weight and efficient?

[07:38] <Master_Medic> 160G
[07:38] <dasmi> ZOMG HUGERSZ!
[07:38] <swmiller6> Asro: yes very light weight and fast
[07:39] <arso> swmiller6:  i'll use transmission then :)
[07:39] <GigaClon> is it over 9000?

[07:39] <genii> LOL
[07:39] <Master_Medic> i want to probably have like 2 distros on it
[07:39] <swmiller6> Arso: you may need to coile it yourself
[07:39] <wladek> would i be correct in my assumption that there's no way to convert an NTFS partition to ext2/3 ?
[07:39] <arso> :S
[07:39] <swmiller6> Arso gtk transmission is the oackage name

[07:47] <logixoul> Hey guys, Im now giving up on installing Kubuntu on my laptop from a CD. The remaining option is, of course, Wubi. I once tried that and it worked fine, but then I couldnt find a way to make the resulting Ubuntu into a Kubuntu (i.e. remove gnome and  install Kubuntus customized KDE and default KDE apps like K3b, Amarok, etc). Do you think this will become a problem if I try Wubi now?
[07:48] <arso> can someone give me their ip so i can try streaming music to them through vlc?
[07:48] <dzer0> hello
[07:48] <LadyNikon> logixoul: i have no idea what Wubi is.. so i cant say
[07:48] <LadyNikon> logixoul: did you try ubuntu?
[07:48] <PriceChild> arso, erm... the client has the server's ip...
[07:48] <Jordan_U> logixoul, It is easy to switch from ubuntu to kubuntu
[07:49] <Bleed> Does anyone know how to change icons for your programs?
[07:49] <dzer0> I just installed ubuntu on a sata HD, but when I boot to it, it just flashes an underscore and does nothing
[07:49] <LadyNikon> logixoul: i switched from ubuntu to kubuntu
[07:49] <Bleed> Like in the Notification area and such?
[07:49] <juano__> any good link for mupen64 0.5 ?
[07:49] <arso> PriceChild:  whta does that mean :P
[07:49] <sauvin> Logixoul, I just installed ubuntu myself and had trouble with kubuntu (it wouldn't let me log into X even though I could log into a VC); I re-installed and just left it as ubuntu. It comes with KDE, and you can make that your default environment.
[07:49] <royel> logixoul: did you try the alternate install disc?

[07:49] <martyyyr> How do I stop iptables via the command-line?
[07:49] <PriceChild> arso, it means, if you want someone to stream off of you... you give them yours
[07:50] <PriceChild> arso, i'd recommend against it thuogh
[07:50] <arso> PriceChild:  oh
[07:50] <arso> PriceChild:  why?
[07:50] <hackel> I'm a little confused--why does Feisty ship with an fglrx driver that is not compatible with the xorg 7.2 that also comes with it?

[07:50] <m1r> logixsoul , apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:50] <logixoul> LadyNikon: well, wubi is a Windows-based installer for Ubuntu (not Kubuntu)
[07:50] <sauvin> Hackel, I'm using fglrx with Feisty; it's working...
[07:50] <Jordan_U> juano__, You have to download the archive and unpack it
[07:50] <LadyNikon> Bleed: are you looking to change a button? in the menu? or an icon on the destop?
[07:51] <LadyNikon> logixoul: oh
[07:51] <Bleed> I'm talking about icons in the Notification area and the windows list
[07:51] <LadyNikon> logixoul: never knew that
[07:51] <Bleed> I want to actually change programs icons
[07:51] <Jordan_U> logixoul, What problem are you having installing normally?
[07:51] <Bleed> Like xchats, firefox, pidgin, etc.
[07:51] <LadyNikon> Bleed: when you right click on the icon.. you should get a "configure this"
[07:51] <dzer0> I just installed ubuntu on a sata HD, but when I boot to to hard drive that it's on, I don't get grub or anything it just flashes an underscore and I can't type and nothing happens
[07:51] <LadyNikon> Bleed: do you see that
[07:51] <Bleed> That just changes the icon I use to start the program with
[07:51] <logixoul> m1r: I think thats what I did back then, and what I got was not really like Kubuntu. E.g. kicker did not contain the Storage Media applet by default. And a lot of, well, glitches...
[07:51] <dzer0> *boot to the
[07:51] <hackel> sauvin:  installed from standard packages?  For mine it says it's only compatible with xorg 7.1...
[07:51] <Bleed> I'm talking about when it's running
[07:52] <LadyNikon> Bleed: so am i
[07:52] <Bleed> Sitting in your notification area and such
[07:52] <martyyyr> How do I stop iptables?
[07:52] <stefg> dzer0: how do you "boot to to hard drive that it's on" ?
[07:52] <royel> dzer0: did grub get installed to the sata drive in question, or was it installed to another drives MBR?
[07:52] <LadyNikon> Bleed: i am also in KDE so i dunno what you are using.
[07:52] <m1r> logixoul , it shouldnt make any problems, u just chose which WM u want on startup and all should work ok imho
[07:53] <LadyNikon> Bleed: but if you right click on the icon .. you should be able to configure that entire area
[07:53] <dzer0> stefg: it's the 1st sata master, so it's just the default HD that the computer boots to
[07:53] <dzer0> royel: I
[07:53] <dzer0> err
[07:53] <Juz_moi> my new install fails to see my realtec 8139 card, it shows in lspci, I did sudo modeprobe 8139too, still no joy...... any ideas?
[07:53] <dzer0> royel: I'm not sure, I just let the installer go, the drive ubuntu installed on is the 1st master so I think it was supposed to put it there
[07:53] <Jordan_U> logixoul, What problem are you having installing normally?
[07:53] <stefg> dzer0: are you on Live CD now?
[07:54] <dzer0> stefg: no, my 2nd HD has windows on it
[07:54] <dzer0> and it didn't install grub to this 2nd hd
[07:54] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: did you active that nic?
[07:54] <m1r> juz_moi is your network configured corectly ?
[07:54] <logixoul> Jordan_U: ok, thx for the purekde link. The problem with normal installation: I booted into the Feisty CD and selected "install or run kubuntu", then it says "loading" and this phase takes like 15 minutes, then "loading linux kernel" pops up and sloowly reaches 15% (different percentage each time) then freezes.
[07:54] <royel> dzer0: did you try an boot the windows drive?
[07:54] <stefg> dzer0: there might be confusion in your bios, who actually is the master. how did you manage to boot windows then?
[07:54] <Jordan_U> logixoul, Have you tried the alternate install CD?
[07:55] <dzer0> royel: yeah, no grub it just boots right to windows
[07:55] <arso> hey guys, when i download a torrent, and select open with
[07:55] <arso> where do i find ktorrent
[07:55] <logixoul> Jordan_U: no, lemme check that
[07:55] <arso> when i brosw for it
[07:55] <PriceChild> arso, /usr/bin
[07:55] <Jordan_U> !alternate > logixoul
[07:55] <logixoul> m1r: hm ok, thanks...
[07:55] <kevinl-1> has anyone ever configured usplash-theme-ubuntu and recompiled it with success?
[07:55] <dzer0> stefg: there's a built in boot menu on the bios that one can go to, so when I realized that ubuntu didn't work, I told it to boot to the 2nd sata master instead
[07:55] <arso> PriceChild:  thank you
[07:56] <martyyyr> Anyone? How do I stop iptables via the command line?
[07:56] <kevinl-1> martyrr
[07:56] <wi1> hi
[07:56] <kevinl-1> i think you can apt-get remove iptables
[07:56] <kevinl-1> and reinstall it later
[07:56] <kritzstapf> Jordan_U: can you help me getting ardour and jack work? :/
[07:56] <kevinl-1> and your fw rules should be still there
[07:56] <kevinl-1> as far as stopping it.. i dont know
[07:56] <stefg> dzer0: i see, the bios has swaps the master drive around to (fakes no.2 is no.1) this might the cause of your problems
[07:56] <martyyyr> kevinl-1: but I don't want to reinstall it, I just want to stop it. :)
[07:57] <stefg> dzer0: i see, the bios swaps the master drive around to (it fakes no.2 is no.1) this might be the cause of your problems
[07:57] <dzer0> stefg: how would I fix it? grub is on neither of the drives
[07:57] <Jordan_U> kritzstapf, No, you might try Ubuntu-studio I think it comes with it
[07:57] <kevinl-1> sorry.. dunno :(
[07:57] <Juz_moi> it sez there ain't no nic martiinez
[07:57] <kritzstapf> Jordan_U: i dont want to change my whole system :D
[07:57] <Juz_moi> it sez there ain't no nic martyyyr
[07:57] <stefg> dzer0: boot the live CD ad look at the situation from there
[07:58] <dzer0> stefg: and then come back in here?
[07:58] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Where does it say that?
[07:58] <Juz_moi> I can't configure a net work that doesn't see a nic card...
[07:58] <royel> stefg: it's not a faking routine, all bios can be told what order or drive to boot first
[07:58] <askand> Hi..when I play videos in mplayer they suddnly are very very bright..why?
[07:58] <royel> stefg: I shouldnt say all, most
[07:58] <Juz_moi> ifconfig for one
[07:58] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: but, you modprobed it, right?
[07:58] <stefg> dzer0: yes, i can only help if theres alinux kernel and a linux console
[07:58] <Juz_moi> and also sudo ifup eth0
[07:58] <royel> dzer0: simply reinstalling grub to the correct sata drive should fix things
[07:58] <Juz_moi> yes I did
[07:58] <ChaoticMind> hey, does anyone know how I can create a file of size X?
[07:58] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: What does dmesg | grep Eth  tell you?
[07:59] <dzer0> alright then brb
[07:59] <Jordan_U> kritzstapf, Ask in #ubuntustudio I think there repository has a newer version of ardour that you probably don't need, I am not sure which would be easier to setup though
[07:59] <royel> dzer0: I might suggest physically disconnecting the windows drive so you dont have any more mishaps
[07:59] <Juz_moi> restarted the network and even rebooted and it failed to see it
[07:59] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Did you add the driver to the /etc/modules file?
[07:59] <royel> dzer0: just disconnect it till you finish the install of course
[07:59] <Juz_moi> let me look martyyyr it's across the room
[07:59] <arso> PriceChild:  umm, in ktorrent , i slected show tray icon, how do i set it up so that when i minimize it goes ONLY to the tray icon, and away from the taskbar
[07:59] <PriceChild> arso, i don't know
[07:59] <dyrne> ChaoticMind: like for a 10mb file: dd if=/dev/zero of=myfile bs=1024 count=10240  ?
[08:00] <Zubzodak> Am trying to connect a firewire device but I dont think Ubuntu recognizes my 1394 port. Theres a directory called dv1394/ and a file called raw1394 in my /dev folder, but no 1394 device seems to show up in my device manager. I have a Lenovo - anyone have any clues? : (
[08:00] <Juz_moi> no to the /etc/modules file
[08:00] <arso> PriceChild:  ok
[08:00] <ChaoticMind> dyrne, it works for 2 gbs as well, right? (ie it's properly scalable, right?)
[08:00] <dyrne> ChaoticMind: yes
[08:00] <ChaoticMind> thank you.
[08:00] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Then add it (what was it again? realxxtoo?) to that file, on a new line.
[08:00] <tmussche> anyone knows how to start an application in a fixed workspace?
[08:00] <arso> anyone knows how i can hide ktorrent from the taskbar and keep it only as a tray icon

[08:01] <tmussche> anyone knows how to start an application in a fixed workspace?
[08:01] <Juz_moi> k let me add it
[08:01] <logixoul> Arso: check `kstart --help`, iirc
[08:01] <ChaoticMind> thanks stefg .
[08:02] <arso> logixoul:  umm, how :S ?
[08:02] <logixoul> in a terminal
[08:02] <arso> ok.
[08:02] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Also, add my name in the line when you want to talk to me, so it more clearly. :)
[08:03] <arso> logixoul:  and ? (i got ubuntu today, i am really clueless)
[08:03] <logixoul> Arso: it displays a list of options for kstart
[08:03] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: so I can see it more clearly*
[08:03] <logixoul> Arso: look for a skiptaskbar one
[08:03] <tmussche> i want to open an item directly into a workspace different from the current how do i do that?
[08:03] <logixoul> Arso: oh dude... wait...
[08:04] <logixoul> Arso: haha. I did not even realize you were talking about ktorrent
[08:04] <kritzstapf> hm, starting jack also messes my sound up like audacity, everything sounds like the speakers were damaged or sth., just reloading snd_ca0106 repairs it
[08:04] <arso> logixoul:  ~,~
[08:04] <dzer0> alright I'm in the livecd now
[08:04] <logixoul> Arso: you just need to click the close button ;)
[08:04] <Juz_moi> martyyyr: is it just 8139too or is it rtl8139too?
[08:05] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: did you modprobe 8139too ?
[08:05] <arso> logixoul:  oh, that doesnt clsoe i.

[08:05] <Juz_moi> yes k
[08:05] <stefg> dzer0: ok, so pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l first
[08:05] <arso> logixoul:  what fun programs do u recommend :p
[08:05] <stefg> !paste | dzer0

[08:07] <dzer0> stefg: the 250gb is the one I put ubuntu on, the 74gb is the windows hd
[08:07] <arso> ~lan
[08:07] <arso> !lan

[08:07] <dyrne> !samba| arso
[08:07] <croSmiley> when i copy somthing on my usb stick i need to wait for a while for it to be copied. if i unplung it right after copying there is nothing on it.
[08:07] <ubotu> arso: 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
[08:07] <dzer0> the other 2 are my storage HDs
[08:07] <arso> dyrne:  thanks .
[08:07] <stefg> dzer0: are you ready to overwrite the MBR of your win drive?
[08:08] <Frogzoo> can anyone tell me what pager they're using in this clip? http://youtube.com/watch?v=nPecBxM2f6c&mode=related&search=
[08:08] <logixoul> Arso: off the top of my head... BasKet Note Pads, d3lphin, showFoto, Krita, KDevelop
[08:08] <dzer0> stefg: I was actually thinking why not just put grub on the HD that ubuntu is on
[08:08] <teenbeat2007_lap> anyone experience with ubuntu studio
[08:08] <stefg> dzer0: you know why ! :-)
[08:08] <Jack_Sparrow> If I have grub default to number 4 and the update adds a kernel does it adjust to 5 or does that then need to be manually changed?
[08:08] <arso> logixoul:  thanks, will look up
[08:08] <maxagaz> does someone know a good chan about mac os ?
[08:08] <dzer0> stefg: alright how do I overwrite the windows mbr
[08:09] <dzer0> stefg: and this won't mess windows up right?
[08:09] <Debian> is there any way to restore a MBR if I wiped the partition containing it and I have no backup floppy?
[08:09] <Jack_Sparrow> debian-: Super grub repair cd may be able to rebuild it.
[08:10] <bathat> i've tried 'grub-install' in a live cd but my MBR-containing drive cannot be detected
[08:10] <stefg> dzer0: if the installer told you that it found windows, you'll get it in the boot menu
[08:10] <ferret_0567> Is there any PDF viewers for Linux that don't render the fonts all mashed together (except for Adobe Reader)?
[08:10] <dyrne> bathat: /msg ubotu mbr
[08:10] <nanda_> I just got an external monter for my laptop and want to either have dual screens or switch off my laptop moniter
[08:10] <dzer0> stefg: what do I do now to fix the MBR or whatever and get things working
[08:10] <nanda_> Intel 950
[08:10] <nanda_> graphics card
[08:10] <martyyyr> bathat: Did you try grub-install or grub-install (hd0)?
[08:11] <stefg> dzer0: teh worst thing that can happen is that you have to fixmbr from windows
[08:11] <dzer0> stefg: that's no problem
[08:11] <arso> when i click on amarok, nothing happens
[08:11] <arso> ~,~
[08:11] <stefg> dzer0: so get a terminal and enter sudo grub
[08:11] <DShepherd> where can i find the bcmwl5a.inf file to download. My friend needs this file for his wireless..
[08:11] <dzer0> stefg: alright I got the grub terminal thing
[08:12] <stefg> dzer0: type' find /boot/grub/stage1'
[08:12] <stefg> dzer0: what turns up?
[08:12] <Jack_Sparrow> DShepherd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174  may have the link he needs

[08:12] <Jack_Sparrow> DShepherd: That is the link I used to get both my broadcom wireless working
[08:13] <arso> logixoul2:  how can i lock my pc?
[08:13] <DShepherd> Jack_Sparrow, ok
[08:13] <stefg> dzer0: that's a comma not a dot

[08:14] <dzer0> ok
[08:14] <switchcat> Q: Greetings, occasionally it seems Ubuntu stops responding to the keyboard... I tend to notice after doing a cntrl-alt-Fx to switch to a console.. I see a line up at the top.. in the bar.. and then I cant do anything.. with the keyboard in X/Gnome.. any suggestions?
[08:15] <Jack_Sparrow> switchcat: are you running any screen effects?
[08:15] <switchcat> jack - screen effects? I dont know. it's just a brand new standard 7.04 install
[08:16] <Jack_Sparrow> switchcat: Just curious..  HAd a friend with that but they installed Beryl.
[08:17] <Juz_moi> martyyyr: I REBOOTED AND SAME ... NO NIC
[08:17] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Is it supposed to be eth0?
[08:17] <Juz_moi> oops sri didn't mean to shout
[08:17] <Juz_moi> well lo is all that is there
[08:17] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: What does ifconfig eth0 output?
[08:18] <Juz_moi> ifconfig shows only lo
[08:18] <Juz_moi> device not found
[08:18] <kritzstapf> starting audacity or jack messes up my sounddriver ca0106 as it makes my line in capture sound very crappy.. how to fix this? :(
[08:18] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: and ifconfig eth1?
[08:18] <akos> How can I check if my internal speakers have been detected correctly? (Asus f3sv)
[08:18] <Juz_moi> same
[08:19] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: That's odd. Hang on a moment.
[08:19] <switchcat> I may have installed beryl.. I don't know..
[08:19] <akos> How can I check if my internal speakers have been detected correctly? (Asus f3sv)
[08:19] <Juz_moi> I have another kubuntu install with same brand nic card and it doesn't have anything but lp in /etc/modules ..
[08:19] <kritzstapf> akos: sudo apt-get install beep && beep
[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> switchcat: Did you by chance run a script / tool called automatix or envy?
[08:20] <Juz_moi> martyyyr: I would suspect the card but I tried 3 diff ones same brand
[08:20] <Juz_moi> martyyyr: I would suspect the pci but but lspci sees it ....
[08:20] <akos> kritzstapf, they are NOT working, thats why I want to know if they are detected!
[08:20] <databuddy> akos you sure your on the right audio device?
[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Juz_moi: What chipset does it see?
[08:21] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Can you find the driver in  dmesg?
[08:21] <switchcat> jack  yes I ran automatix
[08:21] <Jack_Sparrow> switchcat: That is your problem right there
[08:21] <akos> databuddy, i guess so
[08:21] <switchcat> why is that?
[08:21] <akos> databuddy, i only have one
[08:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[08:21] <Juz_moi> what do u mean what chipset Jack_Sparrow
[08:21] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:21] <karim> is there a way to have modules built with module assistant to be directly compiled when instlatiing a new kernel ?
[08:21] <switchcat> I think I might have seen the problem before I ran automatix
[08:21] <solitude|> Hey, im having 2 problems with Feisty 7.04:

[08:22] <switchcat> !worksforme
[08:22] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[08:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy

[08:25] <teenbeat2007_lap> specialy with the laptop
[08:25] <arso> teenbeat2007_lap:  i see, so how did u fix it
[08:25] <teenbeat2007_lap> not with the normal pc
[08:25] <KI4IKL> !ntfs
[08:25] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:25] <Flannel> KI4IKL: you installed ntfs-config, and then went to the config menu and enabled writing?
[08:25] <teenbeat2007_lap> just installed the correct video drivers re installed 3ddesktop and compiz
[08:25] <lastelement0> hey can someone help me get new brushes into gimp?
[08:25] <KI4IKL> yes
[08:25] <markitoxs> hi there
[08:25] <teenbeat2007_lap> then put beryl add it en it was ok
[08:26] <markitoxs> how do i avoid loading gnome-panel ??
[08:26] <teenbeat2007_lap> but with 7.04 it worked straight away fine

[08:26] <teenbeat2007_lap> on my computer
[08:26] <Pici> ALL4N: Do you have the /doc directory setup in apache2.conf?
[08:27] <w8tah> i have found the packgae im lookin for -- when i do apt-get install, it gives me a list of packages that WILL be installled and a list of recomended ones -- how do i get it to install both?
[08:27] <teenbeat2007_lap> it also depends on wich video card it is, nvidia or ati
[08:27] <W9ZEB-Lars> woot!
[08:27] <teenbeat2007_lap> ati is most of the time a problem
[08:27] <Tnax> does anyone know of a site where i can find alternative bootscreens?
[08:27] <W9ZEB-Lars> got Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64, Beryl, and Cedega working with WoW.
[08:27] <tanx_23> whats the problem with ati?

[08:27] <^majik^> I can't figure out how to add the spam_lovers list to my postfix/amavis/spamassassin installation on ubuntu 6.06 LTS.  anyone know how?
[08:27] <Pici> ALL4N: A better answer would be /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ is not the root directory of your website, you'll have to check apache2.conf to see what it is.
[08:27] <teenbeat2007_lap> some card just dont want to work with beryl or compiz
[08:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Tnax: gnome-look.org under gdm themes
[08:28] <ChaoticMind> hey, I'm using wubi and trying to resize my home directory, can anyone assist me? I'm having troubles..
[08:28] <Tnax> jack_sparrow : tnx
[08:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Tnax: Do you know how to install them?
[08:28] <teenbeat2007_lap> dont know why but i know its better to have an nvidia card that one always works with beryl or compiz
[08:28] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: I think you might need the rtl8139 drivers, instead of the ones you installed.
[08:29] <jose> I am using Ubuntu 7.04 as a Live CD  - how much software can I install?
[08:29] <Tnax> jack_sparrow: not really, if you have the time it would be nice if you can tell me
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Tnax: Easy to do.. go get one and I will walk you through it..
[08:30] <ALL4N> Pici: thanks, I'll try to move it there, was just wondering since it had the alias there installed by default after installing apache2
[08:30] <Juz_moi> same card same kubuntu cd on another box wks just fine ...?
[08:30] <GKiller> hi everybody! I tried to install the mtools package from main. but aptitude and synaptic said that the package could not be authenticated... is there a known problem with this package? missing/wrong signature?
[08:30] <Tnax> jack_sparrow, sure, brb
[08:30] <markitoxs> how do i avoid loading gnome-panel ??
[08:30] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Did you use the same install disk tho?
[08:30] <Juz_moi> I'm going to try installing with a Ubuntu cd and see if it sees it can always add KDE later
[08:30] <Juz_moi> yes
[08:30] <martyyyr> Juz_moi: Well, that's pretty odd, but odd things happen in the world of linux. :)

[08:31] <stuart_> how do i access sound volume control in XFCE?
[08:32] <jose> anyone knows something about LIve CD?
[08:32] <Flannel> !anyone | jose
[08:32] <ubotu> jose: 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?
[08:32] <stefg> !xubuntu | stuart_
[08:32] <ubotu> stuart_: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[08:32] <teenbeat2007_lap> hehehehe
[08:33] <jose> Does anyone know about Live CDs?

[08:33] <ubotu> fluxbuntu is a LPAE-standard compliant, Ubuntu-based derivative that maintains the goal of running on a wide range of mobile devices and computers (low-end & high-end). It is lightweight, swift and efficient. | Support Channel: #fluxbuntu on freenode | Homepage: http://fluxbuntu.org/
[08:33] <ALL4N> Flannel: oops, you're right, seems like the last slash was necessary
[08:33] <Pici> jose: Ask the question.
[08:33] <Flannel> ALL4N: because the alias is /doc/
[08:33] <jose> If I use live CD, where is the content installed?
[08:33] <KI4IKL> What is the command to mount a drive read/write?
[08:34] <Flannel> jose: theyre not installed, they run in your RAM
[08:34] <sean> !ati
[08:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:34] <Wips> Is there any software to open .rar files in with ubuntu?

[08:34] <kevinl-1> what is the package "ubuntu-desktop"
[08:34] <Flannel> kevinl-1: what do you mean?
[08:34] <kevinl-1> i just removed it on accident, while removing usplash
[08:34] <Tnax> jack_sparrow: hmm...i can only se alot of login-screens there :S
[08:34] <jose> If I want to install some programs using Live CD, the maximum I can install is the size of my RAM?
[08:34] <Wannes> is there an easy way to install ubuntu from a mounted image? (I don't have any cd's or usb sticks atm)
[08:34] <Pici> jose: Nowhere. It runs off the CD. Thats the point of the LiveCD.  You can choose to install if you want, and it will give you prompts as to where you want to pt everything.  Jose yes.
[08:35] <stefg> !install | Wannes
[08:35] <ubotu> Wannes: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[08:35] <Flannel> kevinl-1: Ah, it's a metapackage, it depends on everything that is included with a Ubuntu GUI install.  Removing usplash would remove it, it's no big deal
[08:35] <stuart_> suddenly my volume is so low, what gives? i can't hear much even tho i've set it in xfce4-mixer
[08:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Tnax: Click on System...  Administration... Login WIndow.... Click on the tab named Local...  Drop the new theme.into the list of themes... select it in the list... for now select the option for selected only
[08:35] <ALL4N> Flannel: yah, I understand. Thanks for that

[08:36] <dzer0> stefg: I am going insane right now lol
[08:36] <lastelement0> can someone help me in getting new brushes to gimp
[08:36] <NiceDay> Wips, unrar
[08:36] <dzer0> stefg: it doesn't work but I know the exact problem but I can't fix it
[08:36] <jose> thank you all.
[08:36] <stefg> dzer0: what happened?
[08:36] <Tnax> jack_sparrow: nah...im talking about the screen that shows the boot-up progress when you turn the computer on, between grub and the login screen
[08:37] <dzer0> stefg: my computer keeps booting to the wrong drive, easy to fix except for the fact that my bios picked TODAY to STOP RECOGNIZING MY KEYBOARD!
[08:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Tnax: Look around for info at gnome look... Sorry for the confusion... those are a bit trickier
[08:37] <solitude|> does anyone know of a fix to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/89741 ?
[08:37] <stefg> dzer0: USB keyboard? try enabling 'legacy-support'
[08:37] <dzer0> stefg: how
[08:37] <Wannes> is there an easy way to install ubuntu from a mounted image? (I don't have any cd's or usb sticks atm)
[08:37] <Tnax> jack_sparrow, oki...ill look around
[08:38] <unimatrix9> hi there
[08:38] <stefg> dzer0: bios setup. most of them have some option for 'usb legacy keyboard support'
[08:38] <neverblue> how do I set my command prompt to display my current dir, the relative path?
[08:38] <unimatrix9> why does my dmesg show root at vernasky?
[08:38] <Flannel> Wannes: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#head-ca8e337bdfab6bfa1d064371898775fe1e9e22fd
[08:38] <martyyyr> Does anyone know of another way to configure CUPS than the localhost:631 solution?
[08:38] <dzer0> stefg: I said that my bios picked today to stop recognizing my keyboard. a bit of a catch-22
[08:38] <switchcat> hmmm everything I'm seeming to install today can't be authenticated... is that a sign that it can't connect with some sort of dataabse out there or something like that?
[08:38] <Flannel> neverblue: the... relative path?  relative to what?
[08:38] <unimatrix9> vernadsky , is shows up on dmesg, any clue as to what it is?
[08:38] <Pici> solitude|: Try asking in #ubuntu-effects, they might be able to help you with it.
[08:39] <dzer0> stefg: the keyboard works sometimes with the bios but it's unpredictable
[08:39] <stefg> dzer0: bt get to it, if the keyboard doesn't respond, yeah.. i see the catch 22
[08:39] <neverblue> Flannel, atm I have [me@server dir] 
[08:39] <The_Giver> hi... if i have the fglrx drivers .. how do i configure dual monitors
[08:39] <Flannel> neverblue: right, what are you looking to get?
[08:39] <POVaddct> dzer0: it's like the famous "keyboard error, press F1 to continue"
[08:40] <dzer0> lol exactly
[08:40] <deejoe> martyyyr: /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf
[08:40] <neverblue> and I want [me@server /home/me/dir] 
[08:40] <stefg> dzer0: got another keyboard? check basement and attic :-)
[08:40] <unimatrix9> who is vernadsky?
[08:40] <unimatrix9> !vernadsky
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vernadsky - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <Flannel> neverblue: ah, you misunderstand.  It is.  it's not dir, it's ~/dir
[08:40] <martyyyr> deejoe: Is that file supposed to be empty by default?
[08:41] <neverblue> Flannel, i misunderstood?
[08:41] <deejoe> mine (on Dapper, mind you) has stuff in it.
[08:41] <POVaddct> neverblue: export PS1='\u@\h:\w\$'
[08:41] <The_Giver> so anyone know how to get dual monitors
[08:41] <neverblue> thanks POVaddct
[08:41] <kevinl-1> Im starting to get the feeling the the Ubuntu team purposely made usplash impossible so that nobody else could make their splash look as cool as theirs.
[08:41] <deejoe> martyyyr: including, most relevantly, Listen localhost:631
[08:41] <stefg> !usplash
[08:41] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:42] <martyyyr> deejoe: There isn't even a cups.d directory in my /etc/cups/ dir
[08:42] <arso> my audio is stilll very very bad quality....
[08:42] <Pici> kevinl-1: Take a look at what ubotu just said.
[08:42] <arso> i tried the hdaintelsoundhowto, but got stuck, too complex for me :(
[08:42] <The_Giver> where is the option if i'm using an mobile x1600 driver
[08:42] <deejoe> martyyyr: does cups currently listen on 631, though?
[08:42] <martyyyr> deejoe: Yeah it does.
[08:42] <neverblue> thats perfect
[08:42] <martyyyr> deejoe: I can access it with links.
[08:43] <deejoe> martyyyr: hmm.
[08:43] <Yasuo> moin
[08:43] <deejoe> martyyyr: maybe take a look at dpkg -L cupsys | more
[08:43] <martyyyr> deejoe: but I can't authenticate with links :( and I can't connect to cups from another machine.
[08:43] <POVaddct> neverblue: of course you have to put that export PS1=... in your .bashrc or something
[08:43] <neverblue> yeah
[08:44] <deejoe> martyyyr: I remember having that problem, but I wasn't sure whether it was because I also had the GUI configuration tools for cups open at the same time.
[08:44] <nerdboy1024> /nickserve identify h0p3l3ss

[08:49] <arso> neverblue:  whenever i run any audio or video with vlc or any other app
[08:49] <arso> neverblue:  the audio quality is terrible with static and stuff.

[08:49] <stuart-> i've followed the instructions, but still can't get nvidia running. what gievs?

[09:00] <wastr2> and it shutdown 2 nights ago because of it
[09:00] <wastr2> is there anything I can do?
[09:00] <dzer0> I fixed the keyboard problem :)
[09:00] <dzer0> apparently my bios hates USB hubs
[09:00] <POVaddct> dzer0: how?
[09:00] <POVaddct> dzer0: aha!
[09:00] <Pici> systemd0wn: you need the linux-header packages for your kernel. sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[09:01] <Frogzoo> wastr2: are you running mail-notification?
[09:01] <POVaddct> dzer0: usb-powered usb-hub?

[09:01] <dzer0> stefg: unfortunately, the grub thing didn't work
[09:01] <arso> can someone help me set up my codecs ?
[09:01] <systemd0wn> pici, tried to run it anyway and it just confirmed what i thought.
[09:02] <dzer0> stefg: booting to the windows HD just booted windows, and booting to the ubuntu hd just gave me a flashing underscore

[09:03] <stefg> dzer0: ok... so option a.) see grub howto by !grub , b:) /j #grub channel . some bios' seems to juggle device names around
[09:03] <Master_Medic> arso, just aptitude install what u need
[09:03] <ubutom> Master_Medic, rightclick on the workspace icon in re upper right corner of your screen
[09:03] <systemd0wn> Pici, i dont have a subdirectory in "/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic" called "linux"  thats why i was thinking it might be a Link File?
[09:03] <dzer0> !grub
[09:03] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto

[09:04] <Master_Medic> arso, so do you want to like play wmv files with xine or something?
[09:04] <Pici> systemd0wn: I vaugely remember having a similar issue when I was compiling something else.  You may need to link that linux directory back up to /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-8-generic/  or whatever your version is.
[09:05] <arso> Master_Medic:  i want to play everything, wmv,avi,mkv,mov
[09:05] <barabra> PriceChild kan du svenska?
[09:05] <PriceChild> arso, ask your question and maybe i or someone will answer if we can
[09:05] <Ali_ix> raf256: --purge in package managemet command also remove config files

[09:06] <arso> Master_Medic:  i can play stuff, but the audio quality is terrible, with a lot of static
[09:07] <arso> Master_Medic:  i dont know if its codecs or audio drivers, or what.
[09:07] <systemd0wn> pici, good point. that 'config.h' doesnt exist in that dir. i will run a search
[09:07] <ChaoticMind> arso there's a usueful article in ubuntu wiki treating that.
[09:07] <arso> ChaoticMind:  can u please be kind n link me?
[09:07] <ChaoticMind> sure, hold on

[09:07] <AboSamoor> hi, i want to use the remote desktop utility, so i type "vncviewer  bla-laptop:0" i got this error message "Couldn't convert 'bla-laptop' to host address" , can anyone help me ?
[09:07] <magnetron> !mp3 | arso
[09:07] <ubotu> arso: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[09:08] <Master_Medic> arso, do this: 'sudo aptitude install xine-ui'
[09:08] <arso> Master_Medic:  ok.
[09:08] <ppsnowflaek> hi
[09:08] <kagemaro> hey, how do I change my hostname in KSirc?
[09:08] <ppsnowflaek> do you have to be programming literate to use Ubuntu/Kubuntu
[09:08] <ChaoticMind> arso, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[09:08] <kagemaro> ppsnowflaek - no
[09:08] <magnetron> AboSamoor: you have to type either the actual IP adress or the real domain name, not just bla-laptop.
[09:08] <arso> Chaotic thank you
[09:09] <ppsnowflaek> ty
[09:09] <UberChatSkillZ> I just tried installing some codec but it just messed up my sound and I can't hear anything. Tried undoing the install but nothing.
[09:09] <arso> Master_Medic: installing now
[09:09] <kagemaro> ppsnowflaek - I have near no programming knowledge and I use it fine
[09:09] <barabra> ppsnowflaek hej
[09:09] <kagemaro> ppsnowflaek - You just need to be computer literate more than anythign
[09:09] <arso> ChaoticMind:  i already got that ubunturestrictedextras
 so how the command become ? where i have to put the ip address ?
[09:10] <Master_Medic> arso, then just try to play it with xine, usually works :] 
[09:10] <magnetron> kagemaro: you don't set your hostname in the IRC client, it is done in the server. if you want to disguise yourself on the freenode network, get a cloak.
[09:10] <systemd0wn> pici, bah, im not seeing a config.h file that i feel i should link to.  Just the last kernel version....
[09:10] <arso> Master_Medic:  installation over, now what
[09:10] <magnetron> !cloak | kagemaro
[09:10] <ubotu> kagemaro: 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
[09:10] <arso> Master_Medic:  oh ok.
[09:10] <Master_Medic> arso, do xine file.avi
[09:10] <thegadgetdude> I'm having trouble getting a widescreen resolution on ubuntu running in parallels, any solution? please :)
[09:10] <kagemaro> magnetron -I don't want to cloak myself on this network
[09:10] <magnetron> AboSamoor: instead of bla-laptop
[09:10] <jrattner1> QUESTION: If I have a script for example test.cgi in my cgi-bin, but I want users to be able to run that script by going to mywebsite.com/test how do I do that
[09:10] <myusrnm> Why when I start installing ubuntu, does it ask me to select a city?
[09:10] <ppsnowflaek> what do you mean computer literate?
[09:10] <kagemaro> magnetron - I want to load two clients into a channel on another network where ghosts are killed on site
[09:11] <ppsnowflaek> do you think a max os x user could use ubuntu?
[09:11] <OldPink> !resolution | thegadgetdude
[09:11] <ubotu> thegadgetdude: 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
[09:11] <stuart_> okay when i bootup it says that linux kernel has version 1.9 and nvidia kernel has 1.7 and they both need to be the same, so how do i get around this?
[09:11] <barabra> magnetron hej
[09:11] <OldPink> Actually, IM is better
[09:11] <crdlb> myusrnm, to determine your timezone
[09:11] <ppsnowflaek> do you think a max os x user could use ubuntu?
[09:11] <OldPink> !resolution > thegadgetdude
[09:11] <kagemaro> ppsnowflaek - probably
[09:11] <stuart_> and it also said something about the system not being able to use any drivers from my nvidia installation
[09:11] <kagemaro> ppsnowflaek - Linux has got much more user friendly in recent times
[09:11] <magnetron> kagemaro: as i said, you cannot report another hostname with any irc client, it is set on the server side
[09:11] <arso> Master_Medic:  error
[09:11] <kagemaro> magnetron - Could you explain how I would use a proxy?
[09:11] <Master_Medic> arso, do tell
[09:12] <arso> Master_Medic:  input plugin failed to open
[09:12] <magnetron> kagemaro: no
[09:12] <Master_Medic> arso, its wmv right?
[09:12] <kagemaro> magnetron - is it easy?
[09:12] <UberChatSkillZ> When I play video files in any media player I get video but no sound, any ideas?
[09:12] <arso> Master_Medic:  avi
[09:12] <systemd0wn> Question, Feisty 7.04, Orinoco, how do i get monitor mode working?
[09:12] <mord> hum. ubuntu any good on a t60?
[09:13] <Master_Medic> arso, thats wack
[09:13] <magnetron> yes mord, see http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki
[09:13] <arso> Master_Medic:  wait it worked when i dragged the file, but didnt when i used command, i mustve done something wrong
[09:13] <arso> Master_Medic:  but audio quality is as terrible .. .
[09:13] <POVaddct> mord: which particular t60? there are many models.
[09:13] <mord> magnetron: ty, will do.
[09:14] <Ali_ix> UberChatSkillZ: check your sound device and audio codecs
[09:14] <mord> POVaddct: umm, this is a "type 2007-svg"
[09:14] <Enselic> If I have the right modules modprobed, do I need to restart anything to make it work?
[09:15] <arso> Master_Medic:  any ideas?
[09:15] <pasi> hi, does somebody know how to spin down dvd drive in linux like nero drive speed does in windows?
[09:15] <Master_Medic> arso, i dont know, try the links other people gave you
[09:15] <arso> Master_Medic:  i did :(,
[09:15] <baghyay> can some one help me to install gaim-vv
[09:16] <kagemaro> Can anyone explain how tor works/
[09:16] <kagemaro> ?*
[09:16] <baghyay> i have probleme  in make install
[09:16] <arso> Master_Medic:  do u know how i can check if my audio drivers are updated?
[09:16] <POVaddct> mord: hmm, google finds nothing. which gfx card? intel or ati?
[09:16] <Master_Medic> arso, sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade
[09:16] <xtknight> pasi, might be something in "man hdparm"
[09:16] <arso> Master_Medic:  whats the difference ?
[09:16] <arso> oh same thing?
[09:17] <preaction> kagemaro, the onion router routes your packets through other people using tor. once it reaches so many hops it goes to its destination with the ip of the last person in the tor network. it's pretty-good anonymity
[09:17] <Master_Medic> arso, one is update the other upgrade
[09:17] <mord> POVaddct: the wlan is the main prob. ati card, no probs with that.
[09:17] <arso> Master_Medic:  do i have to restart after i am done?
[09:18] <Master_Medic> arso, no
[09:18] <POVaddct> mord: wlan can be ipw3945, atheros or, in some newer t60 models, ipw4965
[09:18] <arso> Master_Medic:  great, thnx alot, upgrading now.
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> Does anyone here use rockbox?
[09:18] <baghyay> how to use voice & video in gaim ???
[09:18] <Master_Medic> arso, that probably wont solve any problems though
[09:18] <pasi> xtknight, ty, a new feature that i missed in hdparm
[09:18] <arso> Master_Medic:  :S :S :S
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> Does anyone here use rockbox? (I need some help installing rbutil)
[09:18] <Master_Medic> arso, it is good to do that every so often, keeps your stuff up to date
[09:18] <arso> !aptitude
[09:19] <mord> POVaddct: atheros. trying ndiswrapper as we speak
[09:19] <arso> hm
[09:19] <arso> whats aptitude
[09:19] <Master_Medic> arso, update updates your lists of packages, and upgrade installs / removes the new or old ones
[09:19] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[09:19] <gangsterlicious> http://www.kittyhell.com/2007/07/04/hello-kitty-ubuntu-gdm-theme/ this is soooo cool
[09:19] <arso> Master_Medic:  i see.
[09:19] <POVaddct> mord: so is it too new for madwifi-ng?
[09:19] <arso> Master_Medic:  are drivers considered packages?
[09:20] <Master_Medic> arso, all programs and stuff are packages

[09:22] <POVaddct> d4rkmonkey: why would i need a utility for that? i just copy them on the mounted device.
[09:22] <d4rkmonkey> POVaddct, where do you copy them to?
[09:22] <POVaddct> ChaoticMind: wait
[09:22] <SCO_Rocks> ChaoticMind: You got an honest answer from me at least hahaha

[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> magnetron you don't seem to understand what I'm talking about
[09:25] <POVaddct> d4rkmonkey: when i downloaded the rockbox firmware for my ipod nano, there was docs for it so i downloaded them as well
[09:25] <vox754> nekr0z, did in work in the previous version?
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> oh ok...
[09:25] <nekr0z> vox754: yes, perfectly
[09:25] <magnetron> !rockbox
[09:25] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[09:26] <UberChatSkillZ> ketzerei: right click the menu > Edit Menus ?
[09:26] <Frogzoo> any estimates how much faster virtualbox is than vmware ?
[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> magnetron...?
[09:26] <ketzerei> .....
[09:26] <POVaddct> magnetron: it's really cool, now i got frozen-bubble on my ipod :-)
[09:26] <stuart_> christ, nvidia always screws up my X
[09:26] <stuart_> no matter what i do
[09:26] <vox754> nekr0z, I can't help you. But I wanted to say that it worked for me in 6.06 and then in 6.10, 7.04 it works no more. So I'll just leave without it.
[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> POVaddct, what dir did you extract it to with your nano?
[09:26] <ketzerei> DOH! Thanks
[09:26] <UberChatSkillZ> lol
[09:26] <Theory> Frogzoo: that's probably not a question that can be given a simple answer
[09:26] <bulmer> ketzerei, right click on the menu bar and select edit
[09:26] <POVaddct> d4rkmonkey: somewhere in the .rockbox dir
[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[09:26] <POVaddct> d4rkmonkey: wait
[09:26] <nekr0z> vox754: well I cannot. It's a laptop, and I need a sleep mode badly
[09:27] <POVaddct> d4rkmonkey: yeah, in the .rockbox dir
[09:28] <vox754> nekr0z, check out the forums if you haven't done already. Look for your specific model.
[09:28] <Juz_moi> martyyyr band news ubuntu nor kubuntu install cds see the nic .... knoppix live cd sees it just fine and it gets on the internet with ezz
[09:28] <nekr0z> the thing is: when I put it in a sleep mode, all the LEDs show, that the laptop sleeps, the screen goes black, but not off, and there's no way to wake the thing back
[09:28] <metbsd> is it possible to install debian first, and then install ubuntu from there
[09:28] <Juz_moi> band=bad
[09:28] <marrokinooo> hello

[09:29] <neverblue> Kevin4381, vi :)
[09:30] <metbsd> is it possible to install debian first, and then install ubuntu from there???
[09:30] <magnetron> AboSamoor: i just use the graphical client that comes with ubuntu. applications > internet > terminal server client
[09:30] <neverblue> metbsd, not really
[09:30] <SlimeyPete> KaslePro: gvim, quanta, kate
[09:30] <KaslePro> ?
[09:30] <vox754> nekr0z, actually I've been thinking on going back to 6.06. And you should think if you really need the new things 7.04 has to offer with respect to 6.10, maybe you could go  back too.
[09:30] <neverblue> metbsd, unless you mean in a virtual machine
[09:30] <shoofle> augh!  millions of people!
[09:30] <metbsd> neverblue, i use ubuntu repository, and do apt-get distupgrade, will i get ubuntu?
[09:30] <KaslePro> SlimeyPete:  what do u mean?

[09:30] <SlimeyPete> KaslePro: sorry, I meant to address Kevin4381
[09:31] <neverblue> metbsd, thats a silly question, sorry

[09:31] <metbsd> maybe it's possible..
[09:31] <metbsd> why silly?

[09:31] <lxa> I have a strange problem with gnome and xdmcp ... when I login from my mac the keyboard layout is all wrong ("12345" comes out as "ertyi")
[09:31] <Arpa121> ok
[09:31] <vox754> nekr0z, your symptoms are exactly the same as mine. The screen goes off, but it doesn't really sleep. It just hangs.
[09:31] <metbsd> no, 1. install debian stable 2. change repository to ubuntu 3. apt-get upgrade && dist-upgrade
[09:32] <nekr0z> vox754: I'm thinking of upgrading to 7.10 tribe 3...
[09:32] <metbsd> do i get ubuntu?
[09:32] <neverblue> metbsd, ubuntu repos are for ubuntu
[09:32] <neverblue> metbsd, try a virtual machine
[09:32] <metbsd> repos can be changed!
[09:32] <preaction> metbsd, again, why would you want to? and that will probably break in strange and exciting ways
[09:32] <neverblue> metbsd, see above
[09:32] <linuxpoet> WHo is going to Ubuntu Live?
[09:32] <metbsd> why it will only work virtual machine?
[09:32] <lxa> the keyboard works fine in gdm, so gnome must do something wrong on startup
[09:32] <neverblue> metbsd, read
[09:33] <metbsd> preaction, why would i not want to?
[09:33] <nekr0z> vox754: but I'm kinda scared a little
[09:33] <metbsd> i read, so what
[09:33] <neverblue> metbsd, you really dont know that much about what your talking about, OSes
[09:33] <metbsd> why will it only work in virtual
[09:33] <preaction> metbsd, i'm trying to get a feel for why you'd want to so i can refute your ideas. it will not work
[09:33] <BlueKnight> Hey, if i want to edit a system file in gui with sudo access... how would i do that?
[09:33] <erik_> Hello, I,ve just installed xubuntu on a toshiba portege 7020ct laptop via a network install. When it boots I end up in the text mode so I can't get the window manager to work seemingly. At a complete loss how to proceed. Thanks for reading!
[09:34] <neverblue> BlueKnight, gksudo
[09:34] <preaction> BlueKnight, open a terminal, type "gksudo nautilus"
[09:34] <metbsd> don't know about other oses, but linux is the kernel with gnu, dist=upgrade can upgrade gnu
[09:34] <metbsd> so i don't see why it won't work
[09:34] <BlueKnight> neverblue+preaction thx :)
[09:34] <neverblue> np
[09:34] <vox754> nekr0z, these things depend on kernel modules that control the power saving features, like acpi, so instead of downgrading or upgrading you need to identify the specific problem, that is, the specific version of the module that gave problems.
[09:34] <mrdude> anyone have any luck getting glx to work with a  ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] 
[09:34] <Yulquen> what is the best tool to repartition/format an additional attached hard disk (now ntfs), to ext2?
[09:34] <metbsd> as matter of fact, if i chose to netinstall debian, and use ubuntu repository, it will work too
[09:34] <marrokinooo> update finished

[09:34] <neverblue> no matter how much you fuss with us
[09:34] <preaction> metbsd, they are not binary compatible, it is not a good idea to do this. it is not supported and not recommended, i would not do it. good luck
[09:35] <nekr0z> vox754: I know that. But I'm not that mastered in kernel modules :(
[09:35] <metbsd> explain why
[09:35] <aceofaces12345> Yulquen, you can use fdisk to partition and set type to linux.  mkfs -t ext2 or mkfs.ext2 or something similar to format.
[09:35] <erik_> Hello, I,ve just installed xubuntu on a toshiba portege 7020ct laptop via a network install. When it boots I end up in the text mode so I can't get the window manager to work seemingly. At a complete loss how to proceed. Thanks for reading!
[09:35] <agent_laundry> ?
[09:35] <metbsd> if it will break the sysem, where is the problem from
[09:35] <vox754> nekr0z, you may as well get the version from 6.10 and recompile it for your current 7.04 then talk to the developers to see what went wrong. I would say, yes, it hard to debug.
[09:36] <mrdude> i think im having some trouble since i switched over from an nvidia card
[09:36] <preaction> metbsd, imagine you have windows 3.11 on your computer, and then you just copy the contents of the windows 95 install disk onto your computer and then reboot. what will happen?
[09:36] <agent_laundry> help plz?:)
[09:36] <agent_laundry> Help: When i Install a application trough WIne, where do i find it after it has been installed:)?
[09:36] <preaction> metbsd, sure, you put the system directory in the right place, but it's already full of windows 3.11 libs. now you've got 3.11 programs using 95 libs and 95 programs using 3.11 libs.
[09:36] <mrdude> agent_laundry usually wine makes a menu item for it in your start menu
[09:36] <nekr0z> vox754: thanks anyway... i'll try something
[09:37] <preaction> agent_laundry, usually ~/.wine/drive_c if it's not in the menu
[09:37] <metbsd> but windows is a complete os, linux is just seperate kernel + gnu, so your sample does not apply here
[09:37] <neol> does anyone know how to set a mbr boot flag ??? :)
[09:37] <agent_laundry> mrdude, preaction: thanks:)
[09:37] <metbsd> but think about this

[09:37] <metbsd> as matter of fact, if i chose to netinstall debian, and use ubuntu repository, it will work too
[09:37] <emosamurai> Hi. I'm having trouble unzipping a .rar file. 7zip for some reason is not forthcoming. I install it, uninstall it, and install it again, and it doesn't show up in the Applications menu.
[09:38] <preaction> metbsd, admittedly, that's a more extreme example, but the collolary is the same: you've got debian programs using ubuntu libs, debian programs compiled against debian libs that now have ubuntu libs in their place. there WILL be incompatibilities, and there WILL be inconsistencies
[09:38] <metbsd> 1. install debian stable 2. change repository to ubuntu 3. apt-get upgrade && dist-upgrade 4. get ubuntu
[09:38] <rathel> Hi, how do you downgrade packages?
[09:38] <unix4me> where are the wallpaper files kept?
[09:38] <preaction> metbsd, that's because the netinstall disc puts nothing onto your hard drive that does not come from the internet.
[09:38] <italianninja> can someone help me please
[09:38] <preaction> unix4me, /usr/share <- somewhere in there, /usr/share/pixmaps i think

[09:39] <neol> does anyone how to set a mbr boot flag using syslinux and fdisk :) ??
[09:39] <metbsd> why not?
[09:39] <ubotu> italianninja: 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.
[09:39] <Enselic> italianninja: it
[09:39] <Enselic> italianninja: it's easy, just google for "mount iso"
[09:39] <preaction> metbsd, for the simple reason that it has not been tested and is not supported by either team.
[09:40] <Frogzoo> neol: linux ignores the boot flag - so don't worry about it
[09:40] <italianninja> i tried everything nothing seems to work
[09:40] <Enselic> italianninja: what did you try and what did it say?
[09:40] <italianninja> what does mountpoint mean
[09:40] <Enselic> italianninja: what directory that your cd will be mounted into
[09:40] <metbsd> you don't have any persuave evidence to say it wont' work

[09:41] <Frogzoo> neol: I'd say enable boot from usb in the bios
[09:41] <preaction> metbsd, go ahead and try it, but do not expect support for your frankenstienian monster
[09:41] <metbsd> you just say "no not recommended, not supported, not tested.
[09:41] <Kevin4381> SlimeyPete -- Kate is awesome; thanks!
[09:41] <metbsd> "haven't tried yet"
[09:41] <preaction> metbsd, i gave you an exact reason: binary incompatibility
[09:42] <metbsd> you are  too conservative, you should be more creative
[09:42] <Kevin4381> how about a good usenet client; I'm used to xnews
[09:42] <neol> Frogzoo: how do i do that in bios ??

[09:42] <preaction> vox754, easier to just /ignore
[09:42] <italianninja> lol
[09:43] <preaction> italianninja, you make a new directory that will be the mount point. say /media/iso or something

[09:50] <OldPink> thegadgetdude, did you get your resolution problem sorted?
[09:50] <PriceChild> italianninja, you don't run an iso... that command tells you how to mount it so you can use what's in it.

[09:51] <italianninja> its a boot.iso im trying to run to do a network install of ubuntu
[09:51] <PriceChild> ror, what's wrong with the one in the the repos?
[09:51] <stuart-> if i'd like to stop GDM, i'd type invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[09:51] <PriceChild> italianninja, well then burn it to cd and boot form it
[09:51] <stuart-> what if i'd like to stop XFCE?
[09:51] <ppsnowflaek> hi there
[09:51] <stuart-> invoke-rc.d xfce4 stop?
[09:51] <italianninja> my laptop doesnt have a cd drive

[09:52] <italianninja> its broken
[09:52] <PriceChild> stuart-, xfce uses gdm doesn't it?
[09:52] <PriceChild> italianninja, well how do you expect to boot off of a cd?
[09:52] <stuart-> PriceChild, oh? okay thought it was only for gnome
[09:52] <ror> PriceChild, nothing wrong with it, but it's now 4 or 5 versions old; there's some new features and a new incompatible data format

[09:53] <ror> what the..
[09:53] <dyrne> dsl_prob: if it asked to reboot it prob updated the kernel if that is the issue then you can hit esc key at boot and choose one of the old kernels you might try that
[09:54] <jrattner1> Question: How would I create a crong job that runs every night, that will automatically delete files in a directory older than two days?
[09:54] <dsl_prob> dyrne i tried tht.. it connected
[09:54] <erik_> Hello, I,ve just installed xubuntu on a toshiba portege 7020ct laptop via a network install. When it boots I end up in the text mode so I can't get the window manager to work seemingly. At a complete loss how to proceed. Thanks for reading!
[09:54] <james296> I have a question, how can I change the default cursor on the logon screen?
[09:54] <dyrne> dsl_prob: so it is the new kernel?
[09:54] <guardian_> hi
[09:54] <dsl_prob> dyrne the new kernel wouldnt connect!
[09:54] <eddie> lol..
[09:54] <Taco> can someone help me with a sound problem? er... annoyance?
[09:54] <jhattu> Could someone give me some ideas? I am missing one OOo Calc function in Ubuntu normal mode. However, when I boot into recovery mode, the function works properly. Could I do something?
[09:54] <guardian_> can someone remind me the command line to use to get the version of a package , the version that will be installed
[09:55] <dyrne> dsl_prob: do you mind submitting a bug?
[09:55] <tupa> erik_ does it give you an error message, or does it enters directly to the console?
[09:55] <chairman>  is it possible to get all the buttons on a hauppauge remote working with the ir_common module (ubuntu feisty) and use it with mythtv or do I have to make a new kernel with a modified ir_common?
[09:55] <ror> PriceChild, I know of new features, and more importantly, the old version cannot read data files created by the new version.
[09:55] <dsl_prob> dyrne the thing is theres no connection AT ALL on ubuntu! am on xp now which obviously have no prob in connecting
[09:55] <PriceChild> !info gnucash gutsy

[09:55] <james296> plz can someone help me with my issue?
[09:56] <xbradx> I'm experiencing an issue with SSH. When I'm at work, my SSH is almost unusable it's so slow, keystrokes and everything are extremely laggy. When I'm on my PC at home, I have no problems SSHing to other PCs and I have no problem with connection speed. Anyone got any ideas?
[09:56] <erik_> tupa yes i have some error messages, hang on i'll reboot and note down
[09:56] <Syncro> How do i write an ISO file onto a CD with ubuntu?
[09:56] <xbradx> it seems to be incoming SSH connections that are slow, not outgoing.
[09:56] <jhattu> Syncro: try gnomebaker.
[09:56] <Syncro> gnomebaker?
[09:56] <Syncro> Alright
[09:56] <Syncro> let me look
[09:57] <Wips> I have an external hard drive with 120gb. But I'm not able to edit or add files in ubuntu. How do I get permission?
[09:57] <ror> xbradx, where are the SSH servers?
[09:57] <jhattu> Syncro: synaptic will find it
[09:57] <Ghost> Croul
[09:57] <eddie> Wips: Is it NTFS?
[09:57] <skollie> xbradx: do you use the same machine at home and at work?
[09:57] <Syncro> alright
[09:57] <Wips> eddie: Dunno?
[09:57] <xbradx> On my home PC. I'm SSHing from work to home
[09:57] <Gambrinus_> Syncro: right click on the iso
[09:57] <morgan> i have the same problem writing to a ntfs drive
[09:57] <xbradx> skollie: No, I'm on Windows Vista at work and I use putty to SSH home
[09:57] <Syncro> Ok
[09:57] <ror> xbradx, well that's to do with your home internet connection
[09:57] <morgan> (same drive, different partition) dual boot
[09:57] <tupa> this is kinda like a poll, what desktop environment do you recommend for a 3.0 GHZ P4 with 192 RAM ??
[09:57] <Gambrinus_> Syncro: Write to disc.
[09:57] <eddie> Wips: Look for NTFS config I think its called
[09:57] <Syncro> But its an ISO
[09:57] <tupa> I use kde but it is kinda slow
[09:57] <stuart_> aw man i think i finally nkow why the hell nvidia doesn't work
[09:57] <Yulquen> when setting up an ext2 data disk (1 partition), how much overhead does the filesystem consume? is it more than NTFS?
[09:57] <eddie> Wips: Might be formated as NTFS
[09:57] <xbradx> ror: I have no problems with outgoing traffic speeds from home, though
[09:57] <Syncro> You sure it will have all the data
[09:58] <stuart_> i tried a manual install, and it said my geforce 2 was actually a legacy driver?
[09:58] <scorp123> tupa: 192 MB RAM ?
[09:58] <Syncro> Instead of the ISO image
[09:58] <ror> if you're uploading at all from your home box you'll find SSHing into it very slow from outside
[09:58] <jhattu> Could someone give me some ideas? I am missing one OOo Calc function(MROUND)  in Ubuntu normal mode. However, when I boot into recovery mode, the function works properly. Could I do something to get OOo function properly in normal mode too?
[09:58] <skollie> xbradx: or maybe just a slower connection from work due to congestion?
[09:58] <stuart_> man, even restricted manager chose nvidia-glx for me
[09:58] <xbradx> skollie: nope, all other servers (much further away I might add) are just fine
[09:59] <xbradx> skollie: and my buddy who uses the same ISP has no problems with his SSH to FreeBSD
[09:59] <eddie> Has anyone tried Ubuntu Server?
[09:59] <skollie> xbradx: then clearly the problem is with your server
[09:59] <Gambrinus_> Syncro: yes, it will burn the ISO data to the disc...not just the ISO file itself
[09:59] <kshahnjd> eddie: yes, join ubuntu-server
[09:59] <xbradx> skollie: how do I troubleshoot something like this? is there an SSHD config somewhere?
[09:59] <ror> xbradx, if you're SSHing to your home connection it's gonna be slow; you won't notice the slowness from your home box
[10:00] <shoofle> oh kay
[10:00] <shoofle> I need some help
[10:00] <scorp123> eddie: yes. Why?
[10:00] <ror> not so much slow as high latency
[10:00] <xbradx> ror: the problem is though that my buddy is on the same ISP and doesn't experience the problem
[10:00] <ror> if you're uploading *at all* you'll find your latency shoots through the roof
[10:00] <Taco> can someone help me with a sound problem?
[10:00] <skollie> xbradx: if it works, it's not likely to be a config problem.
[10:00] <Enselic> !ask | Taco
[10:00] <ubotu> Taco: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:00] <xbradx> skollie: could it by my router?
[10:01] <Syncro> Alright
[10:01] <Syncro> thanks
[10:01] <xbradx> skollie: I'm on this shittly little belkin wireless router
[10:01] <ror> belkins are so shitty I have one at home it's a nightmare
[10:01] <scorp123> ror: Agree .... Belkin kinda sucks.
[10:01] <skollie> xbradx: wouldn't know, but have you tested other connections to your home machine and are they any faster?
[10:01] <shoofle> I have an ubuntu 6.10 cd, and I booted up this computer I want to install it on.  GNOME came up and stuff, and I tried to run the "install" shortcut on the desktop.  It didn't run.  I've been waiting around for about half an hour, which I wouldn't put as *that* unreasonable for this computer.  Nothing is happening.  Any ideas why it isn't installing?  It would be nice to have someone privmsg me to help me out with this.
[10:02] <skollie> taco: what is the problem?
[10:02] <Taco> when i boot up ubuntu, it starts my mic which i find very annoying when i have both my headset and speakers going. is there anyway to disable mic unless i enable it in the volume control?
[10:02] <Taco> ^^
[10:02] <scorp123> ror: Now I have a Linksys WRT-54g with the inofficial "DD-WRT" firmware and quite happy now ...
[10:02] <xbradx> skollie: no, I havn't been able to test other ones, but it bet it is the router after thinking about it now...
[10:02] <eddie> I dont like linksys
[10:02] <stuart_> I get this whenever i try to nvidia-glx-config enable
[10:02] <eddie> Ive had too many break on me
[10:02] <stuart_> Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[10:02] <stuart_> This script cannot proceed automatically.
[10:02] <stuart_> what's wrong
[10:02] <eddie> Don't know, but nvidia and ubuntu aint nice
[10:02] <skollie> Taco: you mute it in the volume control settings and that should take care of your problem
[10:03] <Taco> skollie: but i have to do this every time i boot up
[10:03] <Taco> skollie: there's no way to save this?
[10:03] <skollie> xbradx: cannot really tell from here
[10:03] <jhattu> For some reason I am missing one OOo Calc function(MROUND)  in Ubuntu normal mode. However, when I boot into recovery mode, the function works properly. Could I do something to get OOo function properly in normal mode too? Am I likely to be missing some package?
[10:03] <ror> wrt-54g is the one that bt home hubs use; I tested one at work, shoved that firmware on it to unlock the wireless power; it was ok enough I guess; easy to set up and had more firewall control than my belkin
[10:03] <stuart_> shoofle, i've had times where gnome jsut kept quiet on me on some tasks. no idea why
[10:03] <[Cz] S_p_or_t_o> need advice, i want to make different computers with the same programs and settings - could i compile 7.04 to my own bootable disc with pre-installed programs? or is there another option
[10:03] <Meyvn> GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2007-01-16 on palmer, modified by Debian
[10:03] <skollie> Taco: should not be necessary to do it every time. Your settings should be saved by default
[10:04] <ror> [Cz] S_p_or_t_o, for same settings just use the same home drive
[10:04] <erik_> first i get: bios age (1999) fails cutoff (2000) and then something about "force acpi"
[10:04] <erik_>  then kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot
[10:04] <erik_>  then lots of stuff, all [ok] 
[10:04] <erik_>  at
[10:04] <erik_>  *running local boot scripts [ok] 
[10:04] <erik_>  it hangs indefinitely without a prompt, untill i press a key and then it asks for my login in text mode
[10:04] <John`> how is it possible to see the name of your device in terminal beside "lspci"
[10:04] <ror> and same /etc I think
[10:04] <Catoptromancy> [Cz] S_p_or_t_o, make a shell
[10:04] <Taco> skollie: do you know what file it is saved to?
[10:04] <stuart_> uh.. how'd i know if i successfully installed nvidia?
[10:04] <John`> I want to see the name so I can put it in acpi-support
[10:04] <stuart_> i did ctrl+alt+backspace and there were no errors..
[10:05] <[Cz] S_p_or_t_o> thx for googleing material :)
[10:05] <John`> is there a way to fix sound after suspend?
[10:05] <skollie> Taco: No idea, actually
[10:05] <PriceChild> [Cz] S_p_or_t_o, you can "remaster" install cds
[10:05] <John`> !sound
[10:05] <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
[10:05] <Catoptromancy> [Cz] S_p_or_t_o, I made a "sudo aptitude install  +50 programs" so I could just run shell on any PC and have same programs
[10:05] <ror> I'm not sure what you're getting at though; what do you want to achieve?
[10:05] <John`> !suspend
[10:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about suspend - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:05] <guardian_> can someone remind me the command line to use to get the version of a package , the version that will be installed
[10:06] <guardian_> apt-something ?
[10:06] <John`> anyone know how to fix the sound problem after suspend?
[10:06] <guardian_> dpkg-something?
[10:06] <ror> 2 computers using the same programs and settings? get both to use the same home drive by having the home drive on a network drive
[10:06] <erik_> Hello, I,ve just installed xubuntu on a toshiba portege 7020ct laptop via a network install. When it boots I end up in the text mode so I can't get the window manager to work seemingly. At a complete loss how to proceed. Thanks for reading!
[10:06] <Enselic> Does anyone know of software that monitors CPU temperature?
[10:06] <stuart_> what's the command to nvidia config again
[10:06] <ror> guardian_, apt-get
[10:06] <stuart_> to see nvidia settings
[10:06] <John`> Enselic: in terminal, type "watch acpi -V"
[10:06] <[Cz] S_p_or_t_o> good times:)
[10:07] <ror> Enselic, there are a few but you may need a kernel plugin for them to work; gkrellm is ok but a bit ugly looking these days
[10:07] <morgan> does anybody know how to give yourself permision to write to a ntfs partiton?
[10:07] <neol> has anyone successfully installed ubuntu on usb pen drive ??? :)
[10:07] <ror> I think John`s solution is better
[10:07] <eddie>  morgan: ntfs-config or something like that
[10:07] <vox754> guardian_, read "man apt-get" and "man aptitude" you'll find the tricks in the man pages.
[10:07] <morgan> i'll try that, thanks
[10:07] <guardian_> k
[10:07] <Theory> morgan: mount it with umask=0
[10:07] <Theory> or with uid=your_uid
[10:07] <John`> what happened to the sound after suspend?
[10:07] <John`> how can I fix it?
[10:08] <Enselic> John`: great, thanks
[10:08] <John`> Enselic: np
[10:08] <Gambrinus_> erik_: did you do a Command Line install?
[10:09] <John`> anyone here know how to list details name of devices in terminal beside using "lspci?
[10:09] <morgan> ntfs-config didn't work, and how can i unmount that partiton? It won't let me
[10:09] <erik_> not exactly command line, but yeah, this blue box thing (not the regulat gui)
[10:09] <Chousuke> hmm
[10:10] <maciek> siema :)
[10:10] <ror> menu based install

[10:10] <jjlee> the manual seems chock-full of manual package management stuff
[10:10] <Gambrinus_> erik_: what happens when you type "startx"?

[10:11] <ror> and you can choose on other tabs where to get updates from
[10:12] <ror> for example you can turn on backports
[10:12] <stuart_> there's no 1024x768 in my settings oh no
[10:12] <John`> thanks

[10:17] <kshahnjd> I see people using options 'zxsf' from the command line, what are they short for?
[10:17] <ror> maybe because you're kubuntu; you can force an update with apt-get update from the commandline if you really want
[10:17] <unimatrix9> htop is not default on the system right?
[10:18] <ror> just cron job that
[10:18] <ppsnowflaek> what would bootcamp do?

[10:19] <ppsnowflaek> sorry didn't mean to spam shit
[10:19] <unimatrix9> how could i filter top to show only cpu usage?

[10:20] <PriceChild> Black_Monkey, #ubuntu-effects please
[10:20] <unimatrix9> ok
[10:20] <Black_Monkey> PriceChild: oh, I thought that was just for beryl/compiz stuff...
[10:20] <christophe971> hi
[10:21] <PriceChild> Black_Monkey, yes
[10:21] <ror> tar is an archive utility; tar -x extracts from the tar(ball); -z means it was compressed also with gzip; -s preserves archive order; -f means "do it to the following file"
[10:21] <christophe971> how can i reinstall the files in /dev/* if i lose them ? the system doesn't boot i have a live cd of ubuntu :/
[10:21] <kshahnjd> oh cute, uncompress, extract, preserve order, and and use the archived file
[10:21] <Black_Monkey> PriceChild: and beryl/compiz can do the 3D stuff with the 3D glasses?
[10:21] <ppsnowflaek> PriceChild: bootcamp seems to be used for running windows on macs
[10:21] <kshahnjd> ror: didn't see your thing when I wrote mine, so ditto :)
[10:21] <PriceChild> christophe971, you didn't lose them... you rm -rf'd them didn't you :)
[10:21] <jrattner1> QUESTION: How do I use ls to display files according to when they were last modified?
[10:22] <PriceChild> ppsnowflaek, more generally, lets you install other os's
[10:22] <ppsnowflaek> does that mean its usable to install ubuntu as well?
[10:22] <christophe971> PriceChild: i cp -r files of / to another partition
[10:22] <ppsnowflaek> ok, so it helps seperate my hd?
[10:22] <christophe971> and the /dev/* weren't copyied
[10:22] <PriceChild> christophe971, copy them back?
[10:22] <PriceChild> ohh
[10:22] <christophe971> doesn't work
[10:22] <jrib> jrattner1: ls -t    see 'man ls'
[10:22] <PriceChild> :s
[10:22] <scorp123> christophe971: those files are dynamically created by the kernel .... usually.
[10:22] <ppsnowflaek> are the two OSs going to share the space on a drive?
[10:23] <PriceChild> ppsnowflaek, yes
[10:23] <christophe971> scorp123: but it doesn't boot :(
[10:23] <John`> is there a way to list modules name?
[10:23] <Anlar> christophe971: only ~2 of them actually exist in fs
[10:23] <scorp123> christophe971: what doesn't boot?
[10:23] <christophe971> ubuntu
[10:23] <christophe971> it says that
[10:23] <erik_> xorg is being set up now, I understand after that i need to choose still a window manager... I'll see how it goes
[10:23] <christophe971> the tty can't be started
[10:23] <Gambrinus_> jrattner1: ls -alt might be more useful
[10:23] <Anlar> yeah he needs null and the console
[10:23] <jjlee> s/adept updater/synaptic/
[10:23] <jrattner1> ok I got another brainbuster
[10:23] <scorp123> christophe971: the system you copied the files from or the system you copied the files to?
[10:23] <jrattner1> Question: How would I create a crong job that runs every night, that will automatically delete files in a directory older than two days?
[10:23] <christophe971> to

[10:24] <scorp123> christophe971: well obviously you didn't install a boot loader or anything?
[10:24] <erik_> just did startx and got a really ugly screen with a small command line in the topleft corner :S
[10:24] <Gambrinus_> erik_: you're on the right track.  it's how I installed ubuntu.  just installed only what I wanted.
[10:24] <jrib> jrattner1: some invocation of find will be your command.  After you figure that out, add it to your crontab
[10:24] <SlimeyPete> erik_: that's basic X11. You have no window manager or desktop environment loaded.
[10:24] <christophe971> scorp123: i mean, the system boot actually, i pass the grub part and have the ubuntu logo with the progress abr
[10:24] <Gambrinus_> erik_: i'm a slow typer....
[10:24] <Anlar> christophe971: mknod console c 0 0 and mknod null c  2 2
[10:25] <jjlee> jrattner: man crontab, then crontab -e, use find to locate the files to delete
[10:25] <christophe971> but it struc at starting, and i doesn't have any terminal to type anything
[10:25] <james296> what can I do to change the cursor theme back to the Human cursor theme instead of the ugly black classic cursor theme in the logon screen???
[10:25] <Gambrinus_> erik_: that's what you get with no windows manager.
[10:25] <Anlar> christophe971: creatin those two that I said should be afaik enough
[10:25] <christophe971> Anlar: can i create them from the livecd ?
[10:25] <scorp123> christophe971: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=421588
[10:25] <Anlar> christophe971: yes. use the commands that I listed.
[10:25] <christophe971> Anlar: thanks
[10:25] <james296> PLEASE help me out someone...
[10:26] <jjlee> jrattner1: see -execdir option to find
[10:26] <christophe971> scorp123: thanks, i'm going to read that
[10:26] <james296> its really frustrating me
[10:26] <erik_> allright! so now i could get one like described on the page you sent me.. think i'll try fuxbox
[10:26] <erik_> fluxbox i mean, hihi
[10:26] <neverblue> what is?
[10:26] <vox754> !please | james296
[10:26] <ubotu> james296: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[10:26] <eddie> Does anyone know where I can find that Big ubuntu Q&A?
[10:26] <james296> anyone?
[10:26] <neverblue> james296, read above
[10:27] <ppsnowflaek> PriceChild hate to be annoying, do i get to access the files from each osx
[10:27] <ppsnowflaek> os
[10:27] <james296> yes I got it but Im kind of in a rush
[10:27] <neverblue> james296, i havent seen a question from you yet
[10:27] <eddie> Then do it another time
[10:27] <jrib> eddie: it's linked in the topic: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions
[10:27] <neverblue> so you fussing isnt getting anything answered faster
[10:27] <eddie> james296: is it that important you need to flood the channel
[10:27] <PriceChild> ppsnowflaek, I don't think that windows can read hfs... hence why you get "mac formatted ipod" (hfs) or "windows formatted ipod" (fat32)
[10:27] <Johto> yeah, dont ask if you can ask, just ask :P
 what can I do to change the cursor theme back to the Human cursor theme instead of the ugly black classic cursor theme in the logon screen???
[10:27] <eddie> jrib: thats not the one, it was another one
[10:27] <Gambrinus_> erik_: i liked openbox for my slow laptop, but use Gnome/Beryl for desktop.
[10:27] <neverblue> james296, hmm, maybe in themes?
[10:28] <james296> doesnt help at all
[10:28] <neverblue> im sure it doesnt
[10:28] <james296> still stays the same
[10:28] <neverblue> did you change it
[10:28] <jrib> eddie: use the wiki, it's better.  I've seen ubuntuguide often suggest things that are not recommended
[10:28] <james296> yes...
[10:28] <neverblue> then it shouldnt stay the same
[10:28] <eddie> jrib: cheers
[10:28] <neverblue> unless you didnt change it
[10:30] <John`> how do you find out module name for wireless network?
[10:30] <neverblue> not sure what a 'cursor theme' is, so maybe your changing a different setting
[10:30] <james296> I removed the cursors I downloaded from Synaptic because they wre causing the default cursor at logon screen to be some kind of black cursor dont know what its called, it didnt look like the classic cursor at all, and when I chose the Human theme at the desktop it applied I logged off and now its stuck as the classic cursor at logon screen...
[10:30] <John`> I know in sound is cat /proc/asound/modules
[10:30] <erik_> gambrinus I installed fluxbox and ran startfluxbox but got a long list of "failed to read" stuff and now it hangs. any advice?
[10:30] <neverblue> so its a login screen issue
[10:31] <james296> yes....
[10:31] <neverblue> how do you download cursors?
[10:31] <Gambrinus_> erik_: that's odd.  try "startx" this time instead.
[10:31] <neverblue> did you change a theme?
[10:31] <james296> well I originally downloaded them through Synaptic
[10:32] <james296> gnome cursors
[10:32] <james296> no
[10:32] <erik_> will do, rebooting now
[10:32] <james296> I didnt change a theme
[10:32] <Gambrinus_> erik_: wait...it's been awhile since I've done this.  you need to either install GDM or tell X which WM to use via .xinitrc
[10:32] <neverblue> you replied to my question 'yes' when asked if you changed a theme
[10:32] <shoofle> well, now gnome is not displaying any icons at all - nor anything on the taskbars.
[10:33] <neverblue> and now your saying you didnt?
[10:33] <John`> how do you find out module name for wireless network?
[10:33] <shoofle> this computer is very slow and it gave me an alert when gnome started that teh system daemon wouldn't run.
[10:33] <james296> I never replied with a yes to that question...your talking about a theme, Im talking about a cursor...
[10:33] <bmartin> jrattner1, i sent you a PM
[10:33] <Wips> I have an USB external hard drive. ntfs (3.1) But I dont have access to it.. How do I get?
[10:33] <erik_> ok, how do i do that?
[10:34] <neverblue> james296, I see no 'gnome cursors' in synaptic
[10:34] <neverblue> what package are you referring to?
[10:34] <needinfo> Started upgrade to Fiesty (7.04) about five hours ago. Still have three and half hours left. I see no activity through the router. When I move the mouse about 40 seconds later, the cursor moves. Do I have a compuer problem? Can I reboot in the middle of upgrading?
[10:34] <reclusivemonkey> hello, does anyone here have LIRC working on their feisty?
[10:35] <james296> no, thats not the name of them, thats what they are called...gnome cursors, cursors for gnome, I will look them up and tell you what cursors I installed
[10:35] <neverblue> james296, you should have offered that information a long time ago :)_
[10:35] <curtis> ppl! could u help me out with something! can any1 suggest a graphical interface for pon/poff and packets sent/recieved for ppp connection!

[10:35] <james296> sorry
[10:35] <bmartin> Wips, are you using GNOME or KDE or something else?
[10:35] <neverblue> well, so much for 'being in a rush'
[10:35] <fabiooo> hi everyone

[10:36] <lozzy> I am trying to set up wireless on a laptop with the Xubuntu livecd. I have no experience of this whatsoever. I have obtained a wireless 'BSSID' from my router's webmin, and possibly? a network password from underneath my router labelled 'wireless key'. This gives me no joy however. The wireless card is a BT Voyager 1020.
[10:36] <erik_> What's the difference? anyay i'm already downloading gdm
[10:36] <bmartin> lozzy, what brand of card?
[10:36] <james296> neverblue, why are you unable to help me from this point forward?
[10:37] <Gecko> Hey there. How do I tell ubuntu not to use ipv6? I can't unload the ipv6 module as it is in use...
[10:37] <Dhraakellian> installer is sitting and spinning on the "Migrate Documents and Settings" page.  It was doing similar on the Partitioning page before I canceled and just blew away the ailing XP partition with cfdisk
[10:37] <lozzy> BT Voyager 1020? It uses the Amtel wifi driver, I believe
 you should have understood what I meant <-- this is a big 'no no'

[10:37] <Dhraakellian> Compaq Presario 2100 laptop
[10:37] <bmartin> let me check...
[10:37] <Wips> bmartin: Ubuntu, Gnome
[10:38] <james296> doesn't necessarily mean your unable to help me from this point forward...
[10:38] <asc> I need to configure my mouse (speed/acceleration) without use the GNOME mouse configuration tool (I don't use gnome-settings-daemon). Anybody know how this might be accomplished?
[10:38] <james296> you can still help..
[10:38] <jrib> !ipv6 > Gecko (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:38] <Gambrinus_> erik_: some people think GDM is too bulky when you can just type startx to get your WM going.
[10:38] <Dhraakellian> Since there's absolutely nothing available on the HD now to import/migrate, how do I get past this page?
[10:38] <james296> ok what I meant was I figured you would have known what I meant, thats why I said that
[10:38] <juano__> /jkoin #fceu
[10:39] <Gecko> jrib: that's not what I want, I just want it to prefer ipv4 until I have fixed my ipv6...
[10:39] <juano__> woops
[10:39] <jrib> Gecko: that's the only way I know
[10:39] <james296> uhhh...at this point I just feel like I wont have a choice but to re install Ubuntu AGAIN!!! and this time for a cursor...
[10:39] <bmartin> Wips, if you have it plugged in and turned on, it should show up on your desktop
[10:39] <stuart_> um, a less classy question
[10:39] <Dhraakellian> on the other hand, once I figured out bcm43xx-fwcutter, getting wireless working on the laptop with the LiveCD has been super easy
[10:39] <Wips> bmartin: It does
[10:39] <tupa> erik_ did you have any luck?
[10:39] <stuart_> what software do you guys use for your.. p2p needs?
[10:39] <bmartin> and you can't read the contents?
[10:39] <juano__> anyone uses GFCE Ultra ??
[10:39] <Wips> bmartin: But I cant edit or add files.. That's what I ment..
[10:40] <bmartin> it's mounted as read-only... Edgy or Feisty?
[10:40] <Music_Shuffle> !frostwire | stuart_
[10:40] <Wips> Fiesty
[10:40] <erik_> aha, so u mean without gdm you'd always boot into console?
[10:40] <bmartin> lozzy, see this page: http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php?product=1089&cat=160
[10:40] <lozzy> merci.
[10:40] <juano__> !fceu
[10:40] <bmartin> you're welcome
[10:40] <ubotu> stuart_: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[10:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fceu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:40] <Frack-Hesse> hello
[10:40] <erik_> I,ve now just installed gdm
[10:40] <bmartin> i think there's a way to get read-write support... let me check
[10:40] <Music_Shuffle> !torrent | stuart_
[10:40] <ubotu> stuart_: Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[10:41] <erik_> shall I startx?
[10:41] <james296> is there anything I need to edit to change the logon cursor?\
[10:41] <stuart_> i can't torrent anymore. freakin isp throttled the conenction somehow
[10:41] <Wips> bmartin: Ok. Thank you
[10:41] <Gambrinus_> erik_: yeah, but there are scripts to automatically do the startx thing for you, but it didn't work on my laptop due to a hardware specific bug
[10:41] <stuart_> and limewire got hit too
[10:41] <bmartin> Wips, try installing the ntfs-3g package
[10:41] <stuart_> ares was doing fine, what clients go on that network?
[10:41] <tupa> erik_ if you have gdm, sudo gdm in console
[10:41] <Wips> bmartin: What's that?
[10:41] <Frack-Hesse> why can only root write on my partition hda1? fs-tab line: /dev/hda1 /media/hda1 ext2 defaults,rw,exec,users 0 2
[10:41] <Music_Shuffle> stuart_, No idea.  Google I guess?
[10:41] <Dhraakellian> nm on the earlier question... it seems to have finally ungreyed the -->Forward button
[10:42] <bmartin> i found it on the Ubuntu forums... i believe it allows RW access to NTFS partitions
[10:42] <stuart_> ah yeah, silly me
[10:42] <bmartin> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=426122&highlight=feisty+slow
[10:42] <Gecko> jrib: ok, here's the solution for you next time someone asks: run ip -6 addr del <ipv6adr>/<prefix> dev eth0
[10:42] <jrib> Frack-Hesse: fstab doesn't matter.  It's upto whatever permissions you have on the files
[10:42] <stuart_> btw, i can't seem to delete my swap on hdb1, which i'm not using at all, what gives?
[10:42] <stuart_> it won't let me just format the whole hdb1
[10:42] <jrib> Gecko: thanks, good to know
[10:42] <erik_> aha this is looking better... it seems to be loading up
[10:42] <Frack-Hesse> jrib: but it's a partition :x
[10:42] <Frack-Hesse> where do i have to change what?
[10:42] <Wips> bmartin: k, Installed it
[10:43] <jrib> Frack-Hesse: doesn't matter, it's ext2 so it has permissions just like any other file
[10:43] <Frack-Hesse> kk
[10:43] <Frack-Hesse> where do i edit them?
[10:43] <Gecko> jrib: all it does is remove the ipv6 address from the interface, which can be necessary as you can't unload the ipv6 module as long asan interface has an ipv6 address
[10:43] <jrib> !permissions > Frack-Hesse (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:43] <Frack-Hesse> thx :*
[10:43] <bmartin> Wips, it might have to do with how the partition's mounted, as well... can you write there now?
[10:43] <Wips> lemme check
[10:43] <Wips> nope
[10:43] <erik_> uh, ok i just passed the gnome logon, and now i'm in what seems to be a rather disfunctional fluxbox
[10:43] <jrib> Gecko: if you want to add it to the wiki page that I linked you earlier, that would be great too
[10:44] <Wips> Says Root is owner.. How do I open it with Root?
[10:44] <Frack-Hesse> jrib: i know what permissions are -.- do i have to chmod and/or chown the /dev/hda1 file?
[10:44] <Wips> Nautilus?
[10:44] <ExiledSoldier> I just reinstalled Ubuntu, I was trying to get grub to recognize windows and now it does, but I get an error 21: selected device does not exist.  can someone help?
[10:44] <bmartin> sudo nautilus <folder name> from a terminal would work, but that's kinda ugly
[10:44] <jrib> Frack-Hesse: it depends on what permissions you want
[10:44] <Gambrinus_> erik_: what's wrong with it?
[10:44] <Gecko> jrib: ok, will do
[10:44] <bmartin> let me look up a little more on ntfs-3g
[10:44] <erik_> an orange screen and a grey toolbar in the bottom without any buttons, but the time and the word "one".. uhm
[10:44] <kidbuntu> how do i fix this Command line option --configure is not understood
[10:44] <kidbuntu> kidbuntu@kidbuntu-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get dpgk --configure -a
[10:44] <Frack-Hesse> jrib: i want EVERYONE to have read/write acces to this partition
[10:45] <jrib> Frack-Hesse: you don't chmod/chown /dev/hda1 btw.  You chmod/chown the mounted partition
[10:45] <Wips> bmartin: ugly? Well.. Maybe there's something special I mean, since it's Usb and all. Considering the ntfs-3g
[10:45] <kidbuntu> how do i fix this E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct
[10:45] <jrib> Frack-Hesse: chmod 777 /path/to/mounted/partition  then
[10:45] <PriceChild> kidbuntu, erm... run what it suggests?
[10:45] <Gambrinus_> erik_: the fluxbox menu opens up when you right-click on the deskto
[10:45] <Frack-Hesse> thx jrib
[10:45] <Frack-Hesse> i'll try it
[10:46] <kidbuntu> PriceChild: tried typing --configure -a nothing happened
[10:46] <jrib> kidbuntu: like this:  sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:46] <PriceChild> kidbuntu, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:46] <erik_> not with the laptop mousepad
[10:46] <erik_> trying a different moouse...
[10:46] <bmartin> Wips, I'm not on Ubuntu now and I don't have access to an NTFS partition... I'm on a Gentoo machine... there's probably some configuration that needs to be done
[10:46] <bmartin> try ejecting the drive (using the desktop) and unplugging/replugging it
[10:47] <bmartin> it has to do with the way the drive is mounted... it's mounted as type ntfs now, it needs to be ntfs-3g
[10:47] <bmartin> sorry if that's Greek to you
[10:47] <ExiledSoldier> I just reinstalled Ubuntu to try to get grub to recognize Windows and it does now but I get an error 21: selected drive does not exist.  can someone help?
[10:47] <Wips> bmartin: heh, it's not.. Only question is how do I mount it as ntfs-3g
[10:47] <shoofle> I have an ubuntu 6.10 cd.  I put it in the drive and chose "start and install" (or whatever the choice is).  It loaded up GNOME, and said "The GNOME settings daemon could not be started" with some other stuff that I can't quite remember.  Now it shows a blank desktop (no icons or background) with two blank gray toolbars.  What do I do from this point?
[10:47] <bmartin> Wips, you could edit /etc/fstab
[10:48] <wezmurphy> wezmurphy> HI Guys - anyone any advice for me on how to enable wep in ubuntu on a wlan-ng usb adaptor?

[10:50] <Gambrinus_> erik_: you originally wanted xubuntu?  you can install xubuntu-desktop and it should give you everything you need without having to do this manually/the bare bones way...but it will just install a bunch of stuff if you want it or not.
[10:51] <Glave> wezmurphy: My drives keep switching assignments, so its pretty hard to pinpoint which is which http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=505416
[10:51] <kidbuntu> PriceChild: it says command not found
[10:51] <Wips> It won't let me eject it bmartin.. Says there's data that needs to be written to it before it may be ejected. About this fstab thing.. it works the same way with external drives?
[10:51] <novavision> anyone know where I can get a better server guy? :)
[10:51] <Glave> Music_Shuffle: badblocks?
[10:51] <themacinjosh> ok everyone i have an ATI graphics card and i'm trying to get beryl to work.  any ideas of what i should do , someone just suggested i try compiz + xgl??
[10:51] <Tawanda> guys besides gstreamer what other codecs are there?
[10:51] <erik_> ok! The problem was the mouse, it's working now!
[10:51] <shoofle> I have an ubuntu 6.10 cd.  I put it in the drive and chose "start and install" (or whatever the choice is).  It loaded up GNOME, and said "The GNOME settings daemon could not be started" with some other stuff that I can't quite remember.  Now it shows a blank desktop (no icons or background) with two blank gray toolbars.  What do I do from this point?  Privmsg me if you can help me install ubuntu.  Thanks.
[10:51] <erik_> thanks
[10:51] <Frawgie> Alhbshi you can always reinstall it with:  sudo apt-get install dekstop-effects
[10:51] <wezmurphy> @glave Can you change the hardware configuration?
[10:51] <Tomasso> hello guys, I have vmware running w2003 server with ubuntu inside
[10:51] <Dhraakellian> and now the installer has been spinning (and the GUI not updating when other windows or tooltips obscure it briefly) ever since I pressed the Next button from step 5
[10:52] <wezmurphy> @It may be quicker to have one drive in at a time then.
[10:52] <Music_Shuffle> Glave, yeah, you might need to sudo apt-get it, or its already there, but man badblocks should give you a bit to read about it :D
[10:52] <Glave> wezmurphy: yea, I can power down and unplug/replug as fit
[10:52] <Tomasso> i want to forward all service request made to ubuntu to the w2003 server
[10:52] <Tawanda> guys besides gstreamer what other codecs are there?
[10:52] <kidbuntu> how do i fix this  dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[10:52] <jrib> kidbuntu: like this:  sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:52] <wezmurphy> @glave - Run on one disk for a bit - and see if the performance drops or you experience issues.
[10:52] <erik_> well, this was very educational and i might like to try some other window managers. How would i normally go about that?
[10:52] <Dhraakellian> Tawanda: other libraries and such that some programs use?
[10:53] <Dhraakellian> xine-lib and helix are two
[10:53] <kidbuntu> where when i do sudo dpkg --configure -a     it says command not found
[10:53] <jrib> erik_: just install the package for them and select the window manager when you login (click options in the corner of the login screen)
[10:53] <novavision> anyone interested in setting up an ubuntu server for me with root access and LAMPP?
[10:53] <jrib> kidbuntu: pastebin what you type and the entire output
[10:53] <Tawanda> thanks guys
[10:53] <Dhraakellian> I think VLC has its own library, but I don't know what else uses it
[10:53] <novavision> I've got a VPS with Ubuntu on it
[10:53] <Alhbshi> hi every1, I don't know where my System > Preferences > Desktop Effects ... is. It's not there in the menu, Does any one know how to bring it back? THANK YOU.
[10:53] <Dhraakellian> xine and gst are probably the most common, I think
[10:53] <novavision> just need some help getting it to run right
[10:53] <kidbuntu> jrib: oh shoot. dpkg is different from dpgk. i suck on typing
[10:53] <Dhraakellian> there are also mplayer-based video players
[10:54] <dormedas> Hello people, i need like huge help! While installing my ubuntu from the live CD, the system shuts itself off for a reason i cant explain!
[10:54] <Tawanda> y'er all super
[10:54] <Frawgie> Alhbshi you can always reinstall it with:  sudo apt-get install dekstop-effects
[10:54] <wezmurphy> @dormedas
[10:54] <wezmurphy> Try removing all your unnecessary hardware devices
[10:54] <Dewni> Anyone has experience with 64bit gutsy?
[10:54] <Dhraakellian> but it's not a library, so I don't think anything other than just video players based it actually use it
[10:54] <wezmurphy> Turning off  advance power options in the bios
[10:54] <iNcrease> is there any command like eg: (checkinstall, check, control,...) that check the completeness of some installed files or packages?
[10:54] <ubuntu__> hey
[10:55] <wezmurphy> @increase dpkg would be the command
[10:55] <stuart_> has anyone else managed to get nvidia working on fiesty
[10:55] <dormedas> wezmurphy: I dont think i can access the BIOS, what key is it?
[10:55] <erik_> ok, cool. You were saying you don't really need gdm before and I do find it might slo down a bit this very old laptop. so the alternative was something with xintrc?
[10:55] <Frawgie> stuart_ depends on the card actually, so yes and no :P
[10:55] <Music_Shuffle> stuart_, in what sense?  Install the driver and run Beryl, etc?  If so,  Ihave, yeah.
[10:55] <_imran_>  does anybody know if there is a docker for linux that looks like the one mac has?
[10:55] <wezmurphy> @dormeadas Before the memory test on a reboot - mash your hand on the keyboard until it beeps - it should tell you which key
[10:55] <themacinjosh> i have feisty, i want to get beryl or something to work on the computer i have it on right now and it doesn't seem to want to work too well with the ATI graphics card
[10:55] <stuart_> man, i can never get my geforce2 to run at this rate
[10:55] <iNcrease> wezmurphy, ok ill try
[10:56] <Gambrinus_> erik_: there are some good posts at the forums: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aubuntuforums.org+openbox+.xinitrc
[10:56] <Dhraakellian> stuart_: all I know is that my geforce2 MX 400 does fairly well with the regular drivers
[10:56] <dormedas> stuart_ whats the problem?
[10:56] <Frawgie> stuart_ which driver ya runnin?
[10:56] <wezmurphy> @dormeadas - that is called "the hand of god" basically causes a keyboard buffer overflow.
[10:56] <Dhraakellian> stuart_: don't use nvidia-legacy
[10:56] <Gambrinus_> erik_: those are relate dto openbox, but you'll get the idea
[10:56] <stuart_> Dhraakellian, i've tried just nvidia-glx. doesn't work
[10:56] <stuart_> it says at startup, kernel doesn't match my nvidia version
[10:56] <dormedas> wezmurphy: ill try it :P
[10:56] <stuart_> 1.9xx vs. 1.7xx
[10:56] <Dhraakellian> stuart_: have you switched tah... no idea
[10:57] <Gambrinus_> erik_: and the help/wikiw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox
[10:57] <Alhbshi> what commands can I use instead of Windows netstat -n ???
[10:57] <stuart_> how would i know if i have nvidia running btw
[10:57] <Dhraakellian> stuart_: glxinfo | grep direct
[10:57] <Dhraakellian> iirc
[10:57] <pete83> Alhbshi: netstat is in ubuntu as well
[10:57] <dormedas> wezmurphy: no luck :( i just smashed like every key possible at once

[10:58] <stuart_> Dhraakellian, i'm getting a bunch of Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[10:58] <wezmurphy> @dormeadas - it should say "Push F2 to enter setup" or something.
[10:58] <dormedas> wezmurphy: righto here we go again
[10:58] <erik_> great i'll certainly look into it. Thanks a lot for your help!! I was quite hopeless not an hour ago and now i'm happy :D
[10:58] <yaromaster> not a problem
[10:58] <mikerose357> are the recent development releases of ubuntu stable enough for reasonable use?
[10:58] <tupa> 1
[10:58] <wezmurphy> @dormeadas - usually it is the DEL or F8 key to get into the bios.
[10:59] <yaromaster> it is the best tutorial out there
[10:59] <yaromaster> it will work
[10:59] <Gambrinus_> erik_: good luck with it.

[11:04] <james296> I really would like to set the gnome logon screen cursor to the default Human cursor, how can I do that?

[11:04] <ferret_0567> Why must I use ugly xpdf or Adobe Reader to display PDF's properly?
[11:04] <dormedas> wezmurphy: ok
[11:04] <pete83> Dhraakellian: and it got stuck at the migrating phase?
[11:04] <wezmurphy> @dormeadas - I assume you have already removed as much - redundant hardware as possible.
[11:04] <Dhraakellian> the HD had some corrupt spots that made XP not boot (which is why my sis-in-law let me have the box)
[11:04] <Dhraakellian> pete83: yeah
[11:04] <MetaBookfoziS> ferret_0567 > kpdf.
[11:04] <ferret_0567> MetaBookfoziS: I'll try that...
[11:05] <pete83> Dhraakellian: I thought there was a checkbox on, or maybe before, the migrating page that said "do not bother migrating settings"
[11:05] <dormedas> well then
[11:05] <Dhraakellian> My dad and I think that the errors were just filesystem-related and not actual hardware problems, but we're not entirely sure
[11:05] <dormedas> thanks wezmurphy for everything

[11:06] <Frawgie> Dhraakellian you can download an ISO of the ulitmate boot CD and run a harddrive scan from there.  It'll let you know if anything is physically wrong
[11:06] <Dhraakellian> this is after restarting the process.  earlier, it did get the buttons undisabled eventually, but clicking on Forward left it frozen
[11:06] <Dhraakellian> Frawgie: hmm
[11:07] <yaromaster> alecwl: go here http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/71279-problem-intel-intel-r-pro-wireless-3945abg.html it should help

[11:07] <pete83> Dhraakellian: did you ceck the cd for errors?
[11:07] <Dhraakellian> pete83: hmm... not recently
[11:07] <alecw1> haromaster, I'm not running Fedora or Redhat! XD I'm pretty new to Ubuntu....
[11:08] <Dhraakellian> pete83: I've been running off the liveCD for the past few days on that laptop
[11:08] <Dhraakellian> but I suppose checking for errors wouldn't hurt
[11:08] <MrObvious> There.
[11:08] <Frawgie> Dhraakellian hehe, I dont care what M$ says about their chkdsk, it sucks :)   try that boot CD, run the part called Salvation HDD.
[11:09] <Dhraakellian> "There were no users or operating systems suitable for importing from"

[11:09] <ubunt1> hi all. could anybody help me with gpsd?
[11:10] <Dhraakellian> maybe I'll just leave it going for a while and come back to it later this evening
[11:10] <jsestri2> I just upgraded to feisty, and the boot is hanging somewhere near the end. It would appear lots of my drivers are f'd. Where should I start?
[11:10] <pete83> if the gui live cd installer isn't working for you, and you have the bandwidth, you could try downloading the "alternate install CD"
[11:10] <Dhraakellian> hrm...
[11:10] <yaromaster> alecwl sorry for that link this one is a standard and if you do everything what is says there you should be fine http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=567295
[11:11] <alecw1> Anybody here got the Latitude D630's wireless card working?
[11:11] <Dhraakellian> or I could try the Kubuntu (beta 5) or Xubuntu CD's we have
[11:11] <alecw1> thnx yaromaster
[11:11] <Dhraakellian> but I'm wanting to use this as an opportunity to see if Gnome is still as bad as I remember it being
[11:11] <Dhraakellian> so I might end up doing that
[11:11] <yaromaster> not a problem
[11:11] <yeniklasor> With which text editor can I edit SQL files? My sql file is over 100 MB and my editors ins't responding.
[11:11] <pete83> Dhraakellian: the alternate install cd is in text mode, and very fast therefore, but it's still pretty user friendly, if I recall ok
[11:11] <yaromaster> just let me know if it helps
[11:12] <yaromaster> or if you have more questions
[11:12] <Dhraakellian> pete83: yeah, basically just an ncurses alternative to the Qt or GTK installers
[11:12] <alecw1> ok, thanks.
[11:12] <switchcat> Q: How can I enable the use of the mouse in console of a 7.04 install?

[11:12] <MrObvious> switchcat: You don't. Try startx if you're stuck in a console.
[11:12] <pete83> switchcat: did you get the gdm package?
[11:13] <pete83> switchcat: oops.
[11:13] <OhMyAudi> Hi all.  Where can I go to find an avi to dvd-video converter?  For free preferably?
[11:13] <MrObvious> Alhbshi: Are your video drivers set up correctly?
[11:13] <alecw1> yaromaster, What does " First, uninstall all other traces of the ipw3945 driver. Make sure non-free is enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list" mean? How do I uninstall all traces of that driver?
[11:13] <Alhbshi> yes they are
[11:13] <MrObvious> Dunno.
[11:14] <pete83> switchcat: sorry, my mistake. The package for the console-mode mouse is gpm
[11:14] <Alhbshi> and the effects worked, but I disabled it when I was tring to install fusion.
[11:14] <pete83> switchcat: gpm, ,not gdm
[11:14] <MrObvious> Alhbshi: You might double check that if you got a NVidia, it says nvidia for the driver, or whatever it is for ATI.
[11:14] <Gambrinus_> OhMyAudi: ffmpeg would do it, but it's command line
[11:14] <Frawgie> Alhbshi did you uninstall the whole fusion package first?  Otherwise they like to argue
[11:15] <OhMyAudi> Gambrinus: Once it's converted, just burn it?  I'm new to this
[11:15] <moroki_att> Has anyone heard of any problems with the DELL puter pre installed with Feisty?
[11:15] <Alhbshi> how can I uninstall fusion package and Nvidia too?
[11:15] <Alhbshi> I have them both installed
[11:16] <switchcat> pete83 - hmm I seem to have a libgpm, and a bunch of stuff called gnome power manager, and libgpmg.. but I dunno.. something tells me they're not the gpm you're referring to.
[11:16] <Gambrinus_> OhMyAudi: i don't know since I only use ffmpeg to convert video for web, but I'm sure it can make vob files.
[11:16] <MrObvious> Alhbshi: Use aptitude and find it.
[11:16] <Alhbshi> what's aptitude?
[11:16] <MrObvious> Alhbshi: I'm not in Linux now so I can't tell you which commands to exactly use. I usually use apt-get remove package.a
[11:16] <MrObvious> Alhbshi: I'm not in Linux now so I can't tell you which commands to exactly use. I usually use apt-get remove package.
[11:16] <TheNo1Yeti> !pastebin | TheNo1Yeti
[11:16] <pete83> switchcat: well, try: sudo apt-get install gpm

[11:17] <surviver> jrib, hey for the mutt thingy , what command to i need to set up the mailbox (look mutt -y)
[11:18] <switchcat> okay second question: it seems like EVERYTHING I'm installing today "cannot be authenticated"... is my system not connecting with something it should be.. or.. what?
[11:18] <Gambrinus_> OhMyAudi: #ffmpeg, but they never answer.  how about this: http://atomized.org/2005/03/converting-divxxvid-avi-to-dvd-with-ffmpeg/
[11:18] <switchcat> pete83 - danke.
[11:18] <jrib> surviver: not sure, I only use it for local mail
[11:18] <BlackDesign> Does anyone know if Banshee has a Queue?
[11:18] <SlimeyPete> switchcat: that means your system doesn't recognise the gpg key for the packages. I wouldn't worry about it - it's fairly incidental.
[11:18] <surviver> jrib, ok ill take a look on the net
[11:18] <BlackDesign> to queue some songs
[11:18] <SlimeyPete> you could google for the keys and add them with apt-key

[11:19] <switchcat> slimeypete - it just seems odd that it can't do that for everything I've grabbed today.  I did an update and a bunch of other packages..
[11:19] <Gambrinus_> OhMyAudi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DVDAuthoring a little useful
[11:20] <OhMyAudi> thank you so much!
[11:20] <SlimeyPete> switchcat: yeah, a bit strange but nothing to worry about
[11:20] <pete83> switchcat: sometimes you can fix it by typing: sudo apt-get update
[11:21] <yaromaster> alecwl did you get it
[11:21] <alecw1> yaromaster, What does " First, uninstall all other traces of the ipw3945 driver. Make sure non-free is enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list" mean? How do I uninstall all traces of that driver?
[11:21] <jsestri2> Is there a way to read the bootlog? My install is running through it so fast, I can't read it before the fails run off the screen
[11:21] <Alhbshi> Does any one knows how to uninstall Fusion and Nvidia from my Ubuntu 7.04?
[11:22] <Amon_Re> Alhbshi: synaptic?
[11:22] <Alhbshi> what's synaptic?
[11:22] <SlimeyPete> !synaptic
[11:22] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:22] <BlackDesign> Doen anyone know if there is a queue option in Banshee?

[11:24] <wastr2> how do I install package files on ubuntu?
[11:24] <wastr2> i'm getting a dpkg error saying its not the proper debian format
[11:24] <sebas_> wastr2: sudo apt-get install <package>
[11:25] <wastr2> sebas_: I mean actual files
[11:25] <wastr2> like *.debs
[11:25] <Frawgie> !aptitude
[11:25] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[11:25] <yaromaster> alecwl go to synaptic package manager and click search, then type  ipw3945 and see if you come up with something
[11:25] <spy80us> wastr2: dpkg -i shud do it right
[11:25] <wastr2> ok
[11:25] <alecw1> yaromaster, nothing. :(
[11:25] <wastr2> maybe the file is corrupted
[11:25] <TheCreationist> Is there a utility for Ubuntu that will clean my system (for example, dependencies/packages that are no longer needed, obsolete configuration files, etc)?
[11:26] <SlimeyPete> TheCreationist: apt-get autoremove
[11:26] <TheCreationist> SlimeyPete: No, I understand autoremove and --purge, but I was looking for something a little broader in scope.
[11:27] <Frawgie> anyone know why my window borders disappear when i turn on beryl?

[11:41] <sebas_> tuxcrafter: that doesn't seem to be normal, maybe google it or report it on #linux
[11:41] <dyrne> !universe | moomin1 might help
[11:41] <crysalys> can acid rip do anything other than mpg or avi?
[11:41] <ubotu> moomin1 might help: 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

[11:57] <neverblue> what do I need to listen to an imbedded .wav file?

[12:00] <yaromaster> it should have XP and ubuntu
[12:00] <chattr> phil_pi, so what i can do, to get this to work?
[12:00] <dzer0> yaromaster: http://pastebin.com/mfc2c9ce
[12:00] <phil_pi> i didn't see the resolution

[12:00] <chattr> i know that there is a problem with the permissions
[12:00] <stuart_> and nvidia works only when i install nvidia-glx-legacy
