[12:09] <MikeRotch> k thanks bruenig
[12:09] <_`XeOn_> cd
[12:09] <tck> _`XeOn_, nautilus does it nicely
[12:09] <julian> is it possible to listen to audio from 2 different programs at the same time
[12:09] <JASenpai> hmm somebody help?
[12:10] <bruenig> JASenpai, the postinst script is failing, you need to inspect that, perhaps change and repackage
[12:10] <Anlar> julian: yes, either by using esd or setting up virtual alsa device
[12:10] <nikin> julian: yep it is... on some programs
[12:10] <JASenpai> bruening ,  dunno how to do it.
[12:10] <bruenig> _`XeOn_, cdrecord dev=/dev/whatever foo.iso (change whatever and foo obviously)
[12:10] <_`XeOn_> i put the cd in and it gets mounted but i try to burn image on it and it gave me errors and doesnt burn
[12:10] <tck> JASenpai, were you using openoffice?
[12:10] <blackbird> how do i encode videos for my ysp
[12:10] <bruenig> JASenpai, do you know how to script?
[12:10] <julian> ok
[12:10] <JASenpai> i just make an update of ubuntu
[12:11] <JASenpai> dunno how to script.
[12:11] <_`XeOn_> is anyways to install the drivers for my cd-wr?
[12:11] <DanaG> Argh,
[12:11] <DanaG> (gnome-panel:23402): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -5 and height 24
[12:11] <JASenpai> i try to remove that file but i cant.
[12:11] <bruenig> JASenpai, well that is the only certain way to fix it and make it installable
[12:11] <DanaG> But of course, it doesn't tell me which applet it's starting.
[12:11] <michael> sup
[12:11] <michael> what's going on here?
[12:11] <DanaG> And gnome-panel lacks a "debug" parameter.
[12:11] <bruenig> DanaG, just delete the configuration, in ~ somewhere
[12:12] <JASenpai> sure, but with the synaptic packagemanager trow me that error.
[12:12] <nikin> _`XeOn_: if it is mounted then some programs dont let you burn, so unmount it... the drivers are autoimatically installed...
[12:12] <DanaG> That'll remove ALL my configuration.
[12:12] <bmk789> how do i make cp preserve permissions?
[12:12] <_`XeOn_> ok will try that
[12:12] <DanaG> I just want to remove the one that's malfunctioning, but due to that useless message, I can't.
[12:12] <bruenig> DanaG, for panel? that will take what 4 seconds to put back
[12:12] <sunya> #math
[12:12] <bruenig> right click add the clock
[12:12] <sunya> doh
[12:12] <bruenig> now add the task list
[12:12] <blackbird> how to encode vids for psp
[12:12] <nikin> DanaG : and if you run it from a terminal? it doesnot send messages there?
[12:13] <DanaG> I'll have to reconfigure gnubiff, and my colors in system monitor, and other things.
[12:13] <bruenig> bmk789, you mean owner?
[12:13] <DanaG> That's the last message it gives me before stalling.
[12:13] <bmk789> bruenig: yes
[12:13] <bruenig> bmk789, I think the solution is to use a hard link with ln
[12:13] <madman91> hey guys
[12:13] <tck> anyone done an LPI ?
[12:14] <JASenpai> bruenig check http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30827/
[12:14] <bruenig> JASenpai, I already know what is going on
[12:14] <madman91> how do i understand the ubuntu mounting system? the UUID junk?
[12:14] <JASenpai> hmmm
[12:14] <JASenpai> so, how i can solve it?
[12:14] <Theory> madman91: eseentially each partition has a unique ID stored with it
[12:14] <axcel461> running irc as root is a security risk, dude
[12:14] <blackbird> fuck this shit no one ones a psp
[12:14] <madman91> Theory: how do i access that?
[12:14] <Theory> ubuntu uses this id to identify partitions, so mounting still works if you move disks around
[12:14] <bruenig> JASenpai, it requires competence on your end to fix it though which is lacking, granted ubuntu is advertised as the distro for those less competent but sometimes you still need it
[12:15] <Theory> madman91: run /sbin/blkid
[12:15] <Lattyware> Hey all, is there any software to slow down DVD (SATA, if it makes a difference) drives to reduce noise?
[12:15] <B1zz> When i try to change my theme on Ubuntu, it gives me this message......http://pastebin.com/m6a96e53a
[12:15] <Theory> (you may need to install it)
[12:15] <madman91> Theory: thanks
[12:15] <_`XeOn_> how im supossed to unmount cd-rw drive?
[12:16] <JASenpai> hmmm maybe i can try? =/
[12:16] <Jowi> madman91, ...or you can use uuidgen to generate a value for you.
[12:16] <ganon001> hola
[12:16] <ShackJack> HI all - silly question re: Suspend... Is this something that normally works out of the box, or does it have to be explicitly enabled (read SuspendHowto on help site)... I recently got one of those Dell Ubuntu desktops and was surprised suspend did not work out of the box :(
[12:17] <JASenpai> ganon001 #ubuntu-es
[12:17] <ganon001> aloooooooooooooooooo
[12:17] <madman91> Jowi: i dont need to change it.. just read it
[12:17] <nikin> _`XeOn_: if it is mounted somewhere then  sudo umount /MOUNT/POINT
[12:17] <ganon001> espaol
[12:17] <JASenpai> entra en #ubuntu-es ahi te ayudan.

[12:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:18] <kinection> I'm trying to do an apt-get upgrade and it seems like i can't contact the servers. when I try to ping it (ping ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[12:18] <kinection> ) it fails as well
[12:18] <kinection> says that TTL exceeded
[12:18] <kinection> can anybody help me out here?
[12:19] <RedKrieg> hey, does anyone have a dell inspiron e1505 preloaded with ubuntu who can look at their menu.lst for me and tell me what the recovery line's options are?
[12:19] <nikin> kinection: did you try to ping archive.ubuntu.com ?
[12:19] <kinection> nikin: that is fine
[12:20] <vox754> RedKrieg, there is a new subforum for Dells in ubuntuforums.org  You can probably find further tips there.
[12:20] <kinection> nikin: I can also ping ca.archive.ubuntu.com from my computer here. (I'm in the US, the computer i'm trying to update is in canada)
[12:20] <Lattyware> Hey all, is there any software to slow down DVD (SATA, if it makes a difference) drives to reduce noise?
[12:20] <ShackJack> RedKrieg: I have one of those... where's menu.list?
[12:20] <nikin> kinection: than your national server is down.. simply edit /etc/apt/sources.list to use the base servers
[12:20] <ShackJack> RedKrieg: Erp - brain fart... nevermind...
[12:20] <Megaqwerty> kinection: actually, your national server is up...I just pinged it.
[12:21] <RedKrieg> ShackJack: it's in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:21] <B1zz> When i try to change my theme on Ubuntu, it gives me this message......http://pastebin.com/m6a96e53a
[12:21] <kinection> Megaqwerty: yea. i can ping from US but not from this particular computer from canada
[12:21] <nikin> kinection: maybe some routing problem... hapens sometime
[12:21] <RedKrieg> ShackJack: if you could pastebin the whole menu.lst, that'd be fantastic
[12:21] <kinection> nikin: any way to get around that without futzing up the sources ?
[12:21] <Megaqwerty> kinection: odd...I guess just use the base server
[12:21] <tupa> Lattyware, it doesn't make sense, if it's that annoying to you (assuming your drive works properly) you could make an iso and mount it with -o loop option
[12:22] <ShackJack> RedKrieg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30829/
[12:22] <kinection> Megaqwerty: alright, well thanks.
[12:22] <JASenpai> i need help with this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30827/
[12:22] <RedKrieg> ShackJack: thanks so much!
[12:22] <angasule> I want to add a new page to the ubuntu wiki but I'm not sure what are the naming convetions and what template to use, any help?
[12:22] <Megaqwerty> kinection: lol, sorry. Not sure why it's acting like that.
[12:22] <nikin> kinection: hmm... no other idea...
[12:23] <recon> My X refuses to start. I get a "no screens found" fatal error, even after doing a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg".
[12:23] <kinection> yea, it's very strange, i'm wondering if it has to do with something he did with his router
[12:23] <ShackJack> recon: Can you pastebin your xorg.conf?
[12:23] <DanaG> Argh, what package has debugging symbols for gnome-panel?
[12:23] <ShackJack> HI all - silly question re: Suspend... Is this something that normally works out of the box, or does it have to be explicitly enabled (read SuspendHowto on help site)... I recently got one of those Dell Ubuntu desktops and was surprised suspend did not work out of the box :(
[12:23] <recon> ShackJack: i could try, but i'm stuck in a console-only.
[12:23] <nikin> kinection: the only thing that comes in mind that there is somewhere a fireall which is blocking the server
[12:24] <ubuntu> Hello, help, i'm trying to install ubuntu but the installer doesn't recognise that i have any partitions on the disk, i can mount them and the work fine, so any ideas?
[12:24] <BrightEyes> what does "it works out of the box" mean? im on ubuntu 7.04 & i saw that for a logitech cam
[12:24] <ak5> hi: quick question: My wireless now works, but my signal strength really sucks: my network manager says it is at a lousy 6% while the connection properties state it's at an acceptable 40%. What to do?
[12:24] <kinection> nikin: yea. i told him to turn off his firewall though.. i'm trusting him on that
[12:24] <ShackJack> recon: Erp... Oh, yeah... what driver you using?
[12:24] <recon> ShackJack: fglrx.
[12:24] <mwe> hmm
[12:24] <recon> my card's a radeon 6000.
[12:24] <nikin> kinection: maybe it is the ISP-s firewall, or some other somewhere
[12:24] <kinection> nikin: he uses "Rogers"
[12:25] <kinection> nikin: it's possible, i hear they throttle bittorrent as well
[12:25] <ShackJack> recon: Sure driver is installed ?
[12:25] <nikin> kinection: i ame in the other side of the planet :D
[12:25] <madman91> is it possible to merge two ext3 partitions?
[12:25] <Jowi> kinection, can you ping the ip address?
[12:25] <kinection> Jowi: nope, TTL exceeded
[12:25] <Hazler> Hey, does anyone know any Awesome MMOs for linux?
[12:25] <vox754> ubuntu, It would be useful to know your partitions as output by "sudo fdisk -l", but DO NOT paste here.
[12:26] <MikeRotch> bruenig nobody there knows haha
[12:26] <MikeRotch> it seems
[12:26] <BrightEyes> ShackJack friend what does "works out of the box" mean?
[12:26] <recon> ShackJack: on my integrated (this happened when I switched video cards) I went to restricted drivers and hit "Install FGLRX".
[12:26] <nikin> Hazler: WoW and Guild Wars run pretty nice on Linux...
[12:26] <Hazler> Besides those
[12:26] <Hazler> haha
[12:26] <DanaG> aRGH, gnome-panel is hanging.
[12:26] <Hazler> Free
[12:26] <nikin> GW needs some hacking around
[12:26] <Hazler> Btw, i already have them
[12:26] <madman91> is it possible to merge two ext3 partitions?
[12:26] <kinection> But, i just s/ca.// and it seems to be fine again
[12:26] <s0undt3ch> hello ppl, anyone knows if gtk+2 package ships with it's translations?
[12:26] <ShackJack> recon: So can you verify it's installed?
[12:26] <Jowi> kinection, TTL exceeded usuallyl means that the ping packets go between the router and the nic, no?
[12:26] <recon> ShackJack: by doing...?
[12:27] <kinection> Jowi: I'm not sure what you mean by that?
[12:27] <chrisfnet> Where would I find the tg3 driver at? It's not in the apt repository.. and I can't seem to find a buildable source (with a stock kernel).
[12:27] <ShackJack> recon: aptitude search xorg-driver-fglrx   there should be an "I" next to it...
[12:27] <Jowi> kinection, traceroute/tracepath show what?
[12:27] <kinection> Jowi: yea, i tried. but it wasn't installed
[12:27] <Hazler> Ill look on forums and stuff
[12:28] <recon> ShackJack: yeah, it's installed.
[12:28] <kinection> Jowi: i just switched him to the base archive.ubuntu.com and am about to install it
[12:28] <nikin> kinection: nor tcptracepath?
[12:28] <Hazler> The only games i found that were free was Savage, Enemy Territory and Regnum, but i hate Regnum
[12:28] <ShackJack> recon: Maybe remove - do update and reinstall ;)
[12:28] <Jowi> kinection, would be nice to see if the packet reaches anything else than the router....
[12:28] <kinection> Jowi: yea, i'm about to check it out
[12:28] <crippler> Anlar, seem i lost connection i am back now
[12:28] <askand> How do I make bashscripts I can pass arguments to?
[12:28] <angasule> anybody here knows how to properly add a page to the wiki?
[12:28] <nikin> Hazler: but ET is cool :D
[12:29] <chrisfnet> hmm, apparently tg3 was already built. :p
[12:29] <chrisfnet> heh
[12:29] <chrisfnet> should've tried modprobe to start with
[12:29] <dr_willis> askand,  you may want to go read the 'advanced bash scripting guide' Its int eh repos.. or on dozens of web sites
[12:29] <kinection> Jowi: it gets pass the router
[12:29] <chrisfnet> hmm, but it's not recognizing the device..
[12:29] <askand> dr_willis: ok thanks
[12:29] <recon> ShackJack: I also have a integrated, besides my dedicated, and I just thought that in dpkg-reconfigure, the default "Bus Identifier" might not be correct (pointing to the other card).
[12:29] <crippler> Anlar, headset is Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 )
[12:30] <ShackJack> recon: Oh, sorry didn't catch that - what's the bus id now?

[12:30] <Jowi> kinection, go on... :)
[12:31] <madman91> can i change the tag in the uuid of a drive?
[12:31] <recon> ShackJack: PCI:1:5:0.
[12:31] <kinection> Jowi: definitly routing.. seems like one of the roger routers is playing ping pong with another router
[12:31] <recon> i'm looking through lspci right now.
[12:31] <ShackJack> recon: My guess is PCI:1:0:0 :)
[12:31] <kinection> Jowi:  specifically 24.153.3.25 and 24.153.3.26
[12:31] <kinection> they are just bouncing back and forth
[12:32] <unix4me> how do I turn off overwrite in the text editor?
[12:32] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:32] <ShackJack> recon: You can lspci | grep -i blah   if you're looking for something specific...
[12:32] <recon> ShackJack: according to my LSPCI listing, i'm gonna try a different one, then try yours in case of failure.
[12:32] <nikin> ShackJack: lspci is a good friend :D
[12:32] <Jowi> kinection, so one of them decided to have some fun all by itself. how nice
[12:32] <ShackJack> nikin: But a terrible lover...
[12:33] <kinection> Jowi: it just goes back and forth repeatedly... and then TTL dies
[12:33] <mwe> hmm
[12:33] <ShackJack> Can anyone answer this - seems such a simple question???  question re: Suspend...

[12:34] <DanaG> Aaargh, I had to login and magic-sysrq-kill Xorg about 7 times before gnome-panel would work.
[12:34] <Jowi> kinection, depending on the type of router. they might not need to be resetted but simply reloading/applying the settings might do the trick.
[12:34] <dr_willis> I have seen a lot of discussion about those Dell Laptops on the Ubuntu forums
[12:34] <unix4me> how do I turn off overwrite in the text editor?
[12:34] <ShackJack> angasule: No, not yet, I wasn't sure if it were something that needed to be configured explicity, or if it were supposed to work out of the box (hence my question ;))
[12:34] <Megaqwerty> BigToe7000: love bash.org ;)
[12:34] <foey> hello all. Ive just swapped monitors over and need to run at 1680x1050. Ubuntu will only go up to 1280x1024 at the moment, what can i do to go higher?
[12:34] <cafuego> ShackJack: Suspend working or not usually depends 100% on the hardware.
[12:34] <BigToe7000> Megaqwerty, indeed, I'm doing it with HP7 :P
[12:35] <ShackJack> dr_willis: Thanks, will look there as well :)
[12:35] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:35] <unix4me> foey: upgrade to Feisty.
[12:35] <recon> ShackJack: "(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:5:0) found."
[12:35] <cafuego> foey: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[12:35] <foey> unix4me : im running feist
[12:35] <Megaqwerty> BigToe7000: :)
[12:35] <cafuego> foey: Just add the higher resolutions in the 'Screen' part of the cfg.
[12:35] <angasule> ShackJack: well, call dell support, and tell us if they say it's not supported, it'd be interesting to know
[12:35] <nikin> foey: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:35] <Andy80> I insert a usb disk in my notebook, using ubuntu 7.04. It's automatically mounted, and it's all ok, but... why the owner is root?! In this way my user cannot modify the contents :(
[12:35] <ShackJack> cafuego: Yeah, but there's this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SuspendHowto which seems to indicate it needs to be explicity configured...
[12:35] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:35] <dr_willis> Andy80,  lets guess.. its windows-formated?
[12:35] <nikin> foey: that also affects GFX card
[12:35] <unix4me> how do I turn off overwrite in the text editor?
[12:36] <BigToe7000> press insert key
[12:36] <dr_willis> unix4me,  which text editor? hit the insert key perhaps?
[12:36] <ShackJack> angasule: Yeah, will likey do that... suspend doesn't work on my year old 1505 lappy or my 5 year old dimension 4500 :)
[12:36] <unix4me> dr_willis: the one in Accessories; i'll try that
[12:36] <foey> nikin : dont I have to put in my graphics card info again?
[12:36] <kinection> Jowi: what do you mean? this is not something i can do correct?
[12:36] <unix4me> dr_willis: thanks. it works.
[12:36] <kinection> Jowi: unless i reroute things on his end
[12:36] <cafuego> foey: It should default to the values currently in xorg.conf
[12:36] <Andy80> dr_willis: no, I formatted it with fdisk, giving it the "83" partition type... so it should be linux formatted
[12:36] <kinection> Jowi: it's possible but way over my head
[12:36] <ShackJack> recon: That's from xorg not lspci (?)
[12:37] <kinection> Jowi: and i don't think his router will allow me to do it
[12:37] <nikin> foey: you have to
[12:37] <Jowi> kinection, ah, it's not routers on the LAN. if these ip addresses are name servers then ask the isp for working ones
[12:37] <cafuego> foey: You should be able to accept defaults, but just have a quick look at them before doing so.
[12:37] <dr_willis> Andy80,  then you need to make a directory onit and chown/chkod that dir for users to actually 'own' the directory - then they can write in there.
[12:37] <nikin> foey: but you dont have to reinstall the driver
[12:37] <kinection> Jowi: yea these aren't on the LAN, these are rogers routers
[12:37] <dr_willis> Andy80,  not sure how to do that for the root of a filesystem.
[12:37] <kinection> Jowi: not name servers
[12:37] <foey> nikin : I know them, but ive done this before and never got x up and running again. It asks for graphics memory e.t.c. which are correct
[12:37] <Jowi> kinection, "rogers" is a person or company? I'm not following :(
[12:37] <Jowi> :)
[12:37] <ShackJack> recon: What about lspci | grep -i vga
[12:37] <kinection> Jowi: Rogers is the cable internet company
[12:38] <kinection> Jowi: lol
[12:38] <dr_willis> Jolly Rogers?
[12:38] <kinection> Jowi: i see how that can be confusing :)
[12:38] <Jowi> kinection, then it's not much to do then to give them a call i'm afraid
[12:38] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:38] <replman> Hi!
[12:38] <kinection> Jowi: yea, seems that way
[12:39] <ShackJack> crippler: Have you checked alsamixer - might be muted?
[12:39] <crippler> no let me check
[12:39] <ShackJack> !hi | replman
[12:39] <ubotu> replman: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:39] <_`XeOn_> i need to reinstall the drivers for my cd-wr? how to??
[12:39] <replman> is it possible to have something like a split-screen on one screen? To split my screen in the middle of the screen?
[12:39] <chrisfnet> How would I build a kernel module for a stock kernel when I don't have a kernel source tree? I guess I could get the tree of the same version of kernel that's already installed...
[12:39] <_`XeOn_> !drivers
[12:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drivers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:39] <_`XeOn_> !drive
[12:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:39] <cafuego> foey: You can usualy leave the busid and graphics memory blank. You need to have the correct driver selected and pick 'Simple' for the screen cfg, so refresh rates are probed, not manually specified.
[12:40] <rathel> hmm.. Is there away to set a Gnome Panel to below windows?
[12:40] <ShackJack> rathel: Whatcha mean below windows....
[12:40] <dr_willis> rathel,  setit to autohide is one way
[12:40] <crippler> ShackJack, everything seems to be turned all the way up and unmuted
[12:40] <nikin> _`XeOn_: that ill be hard couse AFAIK it is compiled in to the kernel
[12:41] <ShackJack> crippler: If you have external amplifier - turn off as sometimes that can affect it .. these are wirelss?
[12:41] <n2diy> How can you determine what printer port is active?
[12:41] <ShackJack> recon: You still there?
[12:41] <foey> cafugeo : ahhh, ok thats where ive been going wrong. Ive been entering the fields. Right im off to try it. Can I do it from X?
[12:42] <crippler> ShackJack, No they arent wireless... Its usb. give me an example of a external amplifier
[12:42] <ShackJack> crippler: Should just say Ext in alsamixer ...
[12:42] <kyja> ok it still tells me that .dmrc is ignored at tells me about my home needing permissions for me and the file needing 644 but thats exactly true. I have full permissions and 644 is set in .dmrc
[12:42] <nikin> i go and install CVS FPC and Lazarus :D cya
[12:43] <crippler> ShackJack, on unchecked let me test it now
[12:43] <JohnsonsWhatever> help
[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> What is the right way to rename the drive icons on my desktop ... disk  and disk1 are not descriptive.
[12:43] <JohnsonsWhatever> problem with amarok, can't play the stream radio files!
[12:43] <_`XeOn_> nikin<|> so that means full reinstall ubuntu
[12:43] <_`XeOn_> ?
[12:43] <crippler> ShackJack, still nothing
[12:44] <nikin> _`XeOn_: i dont think that will hepl... but alternatively you can reinstall the kernel
[12:44] <recon> I'm trying to use the Ubuntu LiveCD, but when it tries to load GDM, it turns black and freezes.
[12:44] <ShackJack> JohnsonsWhatever: That's more of a KDE app - better check #kubuntu or #amarok
[12:44] <nikin> you can do it with synaptic
[12:45] <n2diy> How can you determine what printer port is active?
[12:45] <ShackJack> crippler: USB headset, that's an odd bird, I'm stumped at this point :(
[12:45] <crippler> ShackJack, alright thanks anyway
[12:45] <_`XeOn_> the thing is i wanna save my other pc wich have a lot of ram a nice video card etc but i have no cd and this pc is old i got the iso here but cant burn it to a cd what to do jesus!
[12:45] <michael> yeah, i can never get amarok to play stream files
[12:45] <recon> exit

[12:45] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:45] <michael> just annoying
[12:46] <nikin> _`XeOn_: what errormessage do you get?
[12:46] <Andy80> dr_willis: I can chown andy80 /media/disk, ok, but... shouldn't it be done automatically?
[12:46] <nikin> _`XeOn_: hat program do you use?
[12:46] <_`XeOn_> gnome baker
[12:46] <_`XeOn_> wodem
[12:46] <_`XeOn_> both fails
[12:47] <nikin> _`XeOn_: do you have a file /dev/cdrw ?
[12:47] <rathel> dr_willis, Is that the only way? I don't like the way it autohides it's still visible.
[12:47] <_`XeOn_> it doesnt say cdrw
[12:47] <_`XeOn_> say cdrom0
[12:47] <chrisfnet> grrrrrrrrrrrr
[12:47] <zenmonk> I know this is completely unrelated, but I was wondering if anyone knew the tracker for the openoffice iso, the link on http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/iso_downoad.html is broken
[12:47] <nikin> _`XeOn_: no cdrw ?
[12:47] <choudesh> Andy80, what is your issue? Are you trying to mount a volume so that is RW?
[12:47] <_`XeOn_> but is a cd-rw
[12:48] <nikin> _`XeOn_: what kind of cdrw?
[12:48] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 ( 980374-0403 ) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:48] <Andy80> choudesh: usually when I plug a usvb key, disk ecc.... gnome automatically mounts it and my user is able to read/write... thi disk I plugged was owned by root
[12:49] <choudesh> Andy80, I see.
[12:49] <codesnik> hello. does anybody know, in which package additional locales are located? i have only C and POSIX one, and I want a ru_RU.UTF-8, but i can't find anything relevant in synaptic
[12:49] <CapaH> Can someone here tell me how to make it so wine will not create all those annoying debugging messages? They are slowing down the applications I run. Anyone?
[12:50] <octocore> anyone around to help me w/ some initial install problems?

[12:50] <nikin> codesnik: locales - common files for locale support
[12:51] <kyja> eat cheese with it
[12:51] <Jowi> codesnik, seems "locales"
[12:51] <kyja> or do you need AA ?
[12:51] <octocore> i just got a new comp, a dell. after loading ubuntu, i don't think any of my drivers are being recognized, and i cannot connect to the internet.
[12:51] <TheCreationist> I'm considering giving Mandriva a try (not because I don't like Ubuntu, but because I like trying new things).  I know it uses RPM instead of apt-get, and I don't know what to expect when making that kind of a change....
[12:51] <crippler> Can anyone help me get my Logitech Premium USB Headset 350 (980374-0403) working. It is already set to the default output in the sound prefs.
[12:51] <Jowi> codesnik, it contain /usr/share/i18n/locales/ru_RU which is probably what you want...
[12:51] <codesnik> Jowi: strange, i thought i've tried that. but i'll see again, thanks
[12:51] <TheCreationist> octocore: Wireless?
[12:51] <_`XeOn_> nikin<|> Using generic SCSI-3/mmc   CD-R/CD-RW driver (mmc_cdr)
[12:51] <dr_willis> crippler,  you have checked the ubuntu forums on that?
[12:51] <Scunizi> TheCreationist, Pain?
[12:52] <octocore> TheCreationist: no integrated ethernet.
[12:52] <TheCreationist> Scunizi: Yeah, I figured as much ;)

[12:53] <Jowi> codesnik, see that link from ubotu
[12:53] <crippler> dj_willis, All the forums I have checked tell me thing like.. make sure its unmuted, turned up, set to the default output device... ect... ect...

[12:53] <dr_willis> crippler,  well yovue not really stated what the problem actually Is, from what ive seen.  Its just 'not working' ?
[12:54] <yokgibi> hi all
[12:54] <mbf> bonsOir !
[12:54] <nikin> _`XeOn_: maybe take a look on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-cd-burner/+bug/11886
[12:54] <yokgibi> i have got a problem with installation feisty
[12:54] <yokgibi> is there anyone helps me ?
[12:54] <octocore> TheCreationist: so do you know why none of my drivers would have been recognized during the initial boot?
[12:55] <yokgibi> when i was choose 'start or install ...'
[12:55] <JohnsonsWhatever> fuck #amarok has spam bots there.
[12:55] <yokgibi> installer ask username ?
[12:55] <JohnsonsWhatever> i ask question here.
[12:55] <crippler> dj_willis, I have USB logitech headset and no sound will come out of it. How do i make it put out sound. All the options in the sound prefs are set to what everyone has been telling me they need to be set to.
[12:56] <Nutubuntu> !ohmy JohnsonsWhatever
[12:56] <crippler> I mean can linux not pick up name brand usb headsets or something?
[12:56] <nikin> _`XeOn_: it is also worth a look in the disk admin ... that it does it show as a cdrw or just a cdrom
[12:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> I've got Amarok player, what kind of decoder do I search for!? I've got Ubuntu 7.04 Gnome thing. Need to play Stream Radio!
[12:57] <dr_willis> crippler,  im suprised that ANY of the usb sound things work.. aparently some do. They are just a 'new'  thing. thats not very well supported.
[12:57] <dr_willis> crippler,  given the issues ive had with them in windows.. I stick with the normal headsets now a days.
[12:57] <blairelli1> Anyone here familiar with VirtualBox?
[12:57] <_`XeOn_> cdrom
[12:57] <Jowi> 'night all
[12:58] <replman> blairelli1: what would you like to know?
[12:58] <octocore> hello, anyone know why ubuntu might not be picking up any of my drivers, i.e. network card, video card (highest resolution i can get is 800x600) etc..
[12:58] <crippler> with windows i plugged it in and works awesomely...
[12:58] <blairelli1> replman: I need to know what to set the OS as. Linux 2.2, Linux 2.4, Linux 2.6, Free BSD, etc
[12:58] <crippler> ill just reintall windows again
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> crippler: Dont you think the manufacturers have some responsibility in supplying drivers?
[12:58] <nikin> _`XeOn_: so it the circle on the info page of CDRW is red?
[12:58] <octocore> i can give further info if anyone is willing to help.
[12:58] <WGGM1> anyone able to help me with a wine segmentation fault???
[12:59] <nikin> _`XeOn_: thats a problem.. it is a normal IDE drive?
[12:59] <replman> blairelli1: When you setup a new virtual machine?
[12:59] <blairelli1> Yes
[12:59] <replman> what would you like to install for a guest os?
[12:59] <_`XeOn_> no
[12:59] <wckdklw0n> i have a harddrive in my system with windows xp on it.. but i am using the ubuntu live cd.. can i access the hard drive and pull files from it and transfer them to another computer on the network?
[01:00] <blairelli1> I want to install a 64 bit Ubuntu setup
[01:00] <nikin> _`XeOn_: what then?
[01:00] <blairelli1> Im currently using Mandriva One Spring, but am new to the whole Virtual Box thing.
[01:00] <_`XeOn_> [   73.095600]  hdc: PHILIPS CDD3610 CD-R/RW,
[01:00] <replman> blairelli1: don't know if 64bit is already supported, but i would choose Linux 2.6
[01:00] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: you should be able to read from the drive. You won't be able to write to it without installing a driver though
[01:01] <dr_willis> wckdklw0n,  yes you can, Mount the windows drives,    copyu the stuff over using the samba/network neighborhood features of the filemanager
[01:01] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: but that seems fine since you just need to copy it
[01:01] <nikin> _`XeOn_: hmm i have a backup idea...
[01:01] <blairelli1> replman: Cool deal, I'll give it a try
[01:01] <nikin> _`XeOn_: is your nick registered?
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> yes
[01:01] <replman> blairelli1: cause ubuntu installs a 2.6.xx kernel
[01:01] <wckdklw0n> reason for this is my windows system crashed and i cant get back into it so i figured i could pull the files from linux then install linux that way i dont lose any of my files
[01:01] <JohnsonsWhatever> I've got Amarok player, what kind of decoder do I search for!? I've got Ubuntu 7.04 Gnome thing. Need to play Stream Radio!
[01:01] <JohnsonsWhatever> Please, someone!
[01:02] <wckdklw0n> ok how do i mount the windows drive?
[01:02] <blairelli1> replman: I suppose that makes sense ;)
[01:02] <replman> blairelli1: ;-)
[01:03] <wckdklw0n> dr_willis: how do i mount the windows drive?
[01:04] <vox754> !please | JohnsonsWhatever
[01:04] <ubotu> JohnsonsWhatever: 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
[01:04] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't list it?
[01:04] <blairelli1> replman: your right about not supporting a 64 bit...

[01:05] <JohnsonsWhatever> It should be common knowledge you need demux. :P
[01:06] <WGGM1> can anyone help me with wine?
[01:06] <replman> blairelli1: But you can install the 32-bit version also :-)
[01:06] <Anlar> eboyjr: 4G? no.. 2G? perhaps 256-512M just because some software are plain boneheaded.. for 1G, yeah.. it's good to have at least tiny.

[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> wckdklw0n: HAve you dont the self test on the cd, just because it boots it does not mean everything is ok.
[01:10] <wckdklw0n> its an original cd from ubuntu

[01:11] <Wind-Storm> How command install google earth for ubuntu linux?
[01:11] <sebas_> wckdklw0n: have you made the cd check before booting?
[01:11] <sport> how do you access a server behind a router if the ip take you to the router interface
[01:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Megaqwerty: How are you getting to terminal?
[01:11] <sebas_> Wind-Storm: download the bin installer from their site
[01:11] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: Applications>Accessories>Terminal
[01:11] <Jack_Sparrow> sorry Megaqwerty
[01:11] <Wind-Storm> yes ok
[01:11] <Wind-Storm> next?
[01:11] <Megaqwerty> * I meant to send that to Jack_Sparrow
[01:11] <eboyjr> The swap drive is a partition that Ubuntu uses to store overfilled memory, is that correct??
[01:11] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, applications, system tools, terminal
[01:12] <tazz_> download 7.04 cant get it to boot
[01:12] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[01:12] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: Ubuntu, Kubuntu, etc.
[01:12] <sebas_> tazz_: have you burned the ISO?
[01:12] <Wind-Storm> sebas_ : next?
[01:12] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, ubuntu
[01:12] <acecase> hello
[01:12] <DeepBlade> i am having problems with xdmcp.. i am connectecting to my ubuntu machine from Mac OSX using X11's 'X', and the keyboard mapping is all messed up.. but the keyboard is fine in the login screen
[01:13] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: which version?
[01:13] <tazz_> 5.10
[01:13] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: 7.04
[01:13] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: sorry, I meant both
[01:13] <wckdklw0n> 5.04
[01:13] <Wind-Storm> sebas_ next? console command?
[01:13] <tazz_> yes i burned iso
[01:13] <WGGM1> i am having problem with wine. from apt-get and from source. running winecfg gives me segmentation fault (core dumped) also userdef & user.reg 'is not a valid registry file' any thoughts?
[01:13] <sebas_> Wind-Storm: run the bin file from the command (sudo ./<file>) I think, first you may have to give executable permissions chmod +x <file>
[01:14] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, 5.04
[01:14] <Wind-Storm> thx
[01:14] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: wow...I'd use a more recent version...I've never used 5.04 before. The latest version currently is 7.04
[01:14] <Flannel> wckdklw0n: you should get 7.04, 5.04 hasn't been supported in almost a year now
[01:14] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't list it?
[01:14] <sebas_> tazz_ maybe your BIOS is booting from the hard disk, see if the boot order is set to boot from the cd drive first
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> wckdklw0n: 7.04 will make your job easier
[01:14] <eboyjr> The swap drive is a partition that Ubuntu uses to store overfilled memory, is that correct??
[01:14] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: I concur. 7.04 is a godsend.
[01:14] <wckdklw0n> i've had these cd's for a while now lol and this is all i had availible to me to work with what i have.. once i get my files off my hard drive i see what i can do about a newer version
[01:15] <acecase> I just installed ubuntu 7.04 and everything seems to work "out of the box" but I have huge mouse lag. My mouse is a USB Microsoft optical mouse and xorg.config has it as IMPS2. Any ideas?
[01:15] <tazz_> i set to cd first
[01:15] <heatman> Hello. I was wondering if it was possible to modify the loading screen (ie: Kubuntu or Ubuntu loading screen, which resemble to the XP one!)) with one that will show all the modules that are mounted upon boot?
[01:15] <dr_willis> heatman,  i disable the splash screen so i can see the purty messages
[01:15] <Megaqwerty> acecase: I had this problem on another machine...is this mouse wireless by any chance?
[01:15] <dr_willis> heatman,  but aparently thats 'scary' to beginners. :)
[01:15] <sebas_> tazz_ yes, google boot order if you have any problem
[01:16] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, would the fact that this live session has been up for about 2 days have anything to do with why i cant access any programs?
[01:16] <acecase> Megaqwerty: no it's just an old MS intelamouse
[01:16] <heatman> dr_willis: how do i disable that?
[01:16] <Flannel> wckdklw0n: the problem is that NTFS is a recent development.  I don't know if it was included at all in 5.04,  Try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions#head-e070ee95af2fd63663dff08b8fd783f429bc29a5
[01:16] <tazz_> i have it set to boot to cd first
[01:16] <dr_willis> heatman,  i use the 'nosplash' option in the /boot/menu/grub.lst file
[01:16] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, because everything worked fine when i first booted it
[01:16] <heatman> dr_willis: tyvm!
[01:16] <sport> how do you access a server behind a router wouldn't ip take you to the router interface?
[01:17] <WGGM1> heatman: yes, check out gnome-look.org (for gnome) and kde-look.org (for kde) someone might have created a splash screen (usually including installation instructions)
[01:17] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: then you can try restarting the session...but my concern is the same as Flannel's NTFS support wasn't very good back in 5.04 if I remember correctly
[01:17] <chrisfnet> any idea why my machine won't respond on eth1 even though i've taken down eth0?
[01:17] <Anlar> does anyone understand why my text on OOo Impress on arrows is upside down? I draw a horizontal arrow, add a caption and for some reason OOo insists that my text must be upside down :o
[01:18] <juano__> hello, can anyone tell me if there is a way with or without the status docklet plugin to leave xmms only in system tray without it showing in the taskbar
[01:18] <Justi1> what is a movie converter for linux?>
[01:18] <acecase> Megaqwerty: NTFS support still isn't very good is it :)
[01:18] <juano__> with the rest of the windows
[01:18] <chrisfnet> justi1: ffmpeg
[01:18] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, i was able to access my ntfs files before when i had a dual boot setup.. that was probably about a year and a half ago.. but it was with this version of ubuntu
[01:18] <n2diy> chrisfnet: did you bring eth1 up?
[01:18] <juano__> btw im using GNOME
[01:18] <chrisfnet> n2diy: yes
[01:18] <eboyjr> Is the swap drive a partition that Ubuntu uses to store overfilled memory?
[01:18] <Megaqwerty> acecase: actually, it's wonderful. Works perfectly for me. Read and Write.
[01:18] <kersinc> ubuntu en espaol
[01:18] <n2diy> chrisfnet: can you ping it?
[01:18] <acecase> Megaqwerty: WOW thats awsome
[01:18] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[01:19] <WGGM1> eboyjr: the swap drive is virtual memory (like in windows)
[01:19] <chrisfnet> n2diy: nope, and nor does it send out.. but ethtool and ifconfig show it to be fine...
[01:19] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: then try restarting the CD. There is practically no reason for it to have worked before, and not now
[01:19] <maalsa> does anybody here use any smaller distros?
[01:19] <n2diy> chrisfnet: can you ping the ip ifconfig lists for eth1?
[01:19] <acecase> maalsa: by smaller?
[01:19] <axcel461> I have used DSL a few times
[01:19] <chrisfnet> n2diy: no
[01:19] <Megaqwerty> wckdklw0n: except the possibility of windows screwing stuff up a lot on your NTFS partition.
[01:19] <maalsa> smaller in size, yeah, usb capable
[01:20] <n2diy> chrisfnet: and ifconfig lists an ip address for it?
[01:20] <acecase> maalsa: there are a few distros out just for that
[01:20] <acecase> distrowatch lists a few
[01:20] <maalsa> i've been experimenting with a few, just wanted to get some personal opinions
[01:20] <chrisfnet> n2diy: yep
[01:20] <chrisfnet> n2diy: and ethtool eth1 says "Link detected: yes"
[01:21] <axcel461> That kind of depends on what you want it to do for you mallsa
[01:21] <acecase> maalsa: if I wanted to do something like that I would build a gentoo distro for it
[01:21] <maalsa> i've installed ubuntu, but i want something simpler, and something i can carry in my pocket. plus now i don't know how to uninstall ubuntu!
[01:21] <heatman> dr_willis: is there a way to change the Kubuntu slapsh for the Ubuntu splash once the KDE-desktop is installed?
[01:21] <maalsa> well i'm brand new to linux, so building a distro sounds a bit on the comlicated side
[01:21] <n2diy> chrisfnet: weird, could it be a permission problem?
[01:21] <Justi1> how can I rip cd/dvd iso's?
[01:21] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't list it?
[01:22] <Megaqwerty> maalsa: "Puppy Linux" works on a USB stick...I think "Damn Small Linux" does too
[01:22] <chrisfnet> n1siy: hmm
[01:22] <axcel461> heatman -> google that, there is a blog entry to show you how. It's easy
[01:22] <Flannel> maalsa: you might be interested in something like DSL, or Knoppix.  Things designed to live on liveCDs/USB
[01:22] <wckdklw0n> Megaqwerty, ok i will restart the session and be aback in a bit
[01:22] <heatman> axcel461: ty
[01:22] <chrisfnet> n2diy: hmm, where would I check?
[01:22] <younghacker> has anyone in here used amule?
[01:22] <Theory> it's reasonably easy to get a standard ubuntu install to boot from usb
[01:22] <acecase> :) Gentoo has all the documentation setup step by step. It's usually easier to get gentoo setup right than to get things like this because you never know what step is screwed up on readymades
[01:22] <Mnabil> younghacker, shoot
[01:22] <Invisionfree> Hi, I have a .jar file how do I run it?
[01:23] <n2diy> chrisfnet: compare the permissions with ls -al /dev/eth0 with /dev/eth1
[01:23] <axcel461> InvisionFree -> java file.jar
[01:23] <acecase> eg rite now I have no idea if my problem is a module or X or...
[01:23] <chrisfnet> n2diy: /dev/eth1 doesn't exist
[01:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Any ACPI suspend guru's hiding in here?
[01:23] <younghacker> Mnabil: lol... where does a file i downloaded go to (directory)
[01:23] <Invisionfree> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: frugooscape/jar <-- How do I fix that?
[01:23] <juano__> hello, can anyone tell me if there is a way with or without the status docklet plugin to leave xmms only in system tray without it showing in the taskbar
[01:24] <juano__> btw im using GNOME
[01:24] <axcel461> Younghacker -> what browser?
[01:24] <n2diy> chrisfnet: WHAT? Then how come ifconfig finds it and gives it an ip address??? Very weird.
[01:24] <Mnabil> younghacker, in you home directory , you'll find a file called .amule
[01:24] <younghacker> ahhh
[01:24] <younghacker> i use nautilus
[01:24] <younghacker> i think
[01:24] <Justi1> how do i open ffmpeg?
[01:25] <chrisfnet> n2diy: different dev structure I'd guess
[01:25] <panfist> can i get top to sort by memory usage instead of cpu usage?
[01:25] <Invisionfree> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: frugooscape/jar <-- How do I fix that?
[01:25] <younghacker> cool thanks
[01:25] <juano__> Justi1: install ffmpeg
[01:25] <Justi1> juano__: I did
[01:25] <n2diy> chrisfnet: I guess? Does locate eth1 find it?
[01:25] <Justi1> juano__: where do I open it from
[01:26] <juano__> Justi1: try from command line ffmpeg myvideo
[01:26] <juano__> ffmpeg --help
[01:26] <juano__> in command line
[01:26] <chrisfnet> n2diy: nope
[01:26] <Mnabil> younghacker, so , did you find it ?
[01:26] <Mnabil> younghacker, it's a hidden file
[01:26] <younghacker> im just getting my console open
[01:26] <younghacker> <<suffers latency
[01:26] <Justi1> juano__: it says Unable for find a suitable output format for 'myvideo'
[01:26] <younghacker> <<--Ubuntu in VM
[01:27] <younghacker> on a laptop
[01:27] <axcel461> younghacker -> ls -a
[01:27] <Megaqwerty> younghacker: I feel sorry for you
[01:27] <Megaqwerty> ;)
[01:27] <Ronald> Hi! running procmail from dspam. dspam runs as root (apparently) and procmail is run from dspam. procmail runs as uid:mail gid:mail euid:root groups: mail. It delivers to the main maildir folder (ie no hits in procmailrc) as mail:mail ... however when a rule gets hit and procmail puts a mail in a subfolder it uses permissions root:mail which is a major problem, since the imapd cannot access that.
[01:27] <n2diy> chrisfnet: WT? I'm stumped.
[01:27] <chrisfnet> n2diy: mmhmm. so am I. :)
[01:27] <younghacker> lol it actually works pretty well for me the other side of the VM is beautiful it's just sometimes processes lag in the VM
[01:28] <younghacker> ok im in the directory
[01:28] <bigFauno> nickserv identify nopass@@
[01:28] <n2diy> chrisfnet: Can you play with eth1 when eth0 is running?
[01:28] <kyja> ok fixxed my problem.
[01:28] <Anlar> bigFauno: uh-oh
[01:28] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw d
[01:28] <Ronald> I used the same dspam-procmail chain before on some other distro (gentoo) where it didnt have permission problems.
[01:28] <younghacker> ok how do i access this now ,, is it a directory?
[01:28] <chrisfnet> n2diy: yeah, I can bring up eth1 and put it down and do stuff to it.. just can't see if it responds. although if I hooked up a switch back there I could try both interfaces...
[01:29] <JayRoe> How do I put my PC into standby?
[01:29] <chrisfnet> n2diy: let me try that..
[01:29] <Sache> how to list all freenode channels?
[01:29] <sauvin> Sache, are you sure you want to risk flooding yourself?
[01:29] <GhostlyDeath> WHO HAS HIGHLIGHTED ME!?!?
[01:29] <mtheath> Sache, /list, but there are hundreds (thousands?) of channels, and this isn't advised.
[01:29] <panfist> my system is using 180 out of 192 megs of ram even tho i'm only running top, xchat, and synaptic. i think firefox is still using all my ram even though i closed it. in the app top, can i sort by ram usage? are there any browser alternatives to firefox
[01:30] <mtheath> Sache, Many GUI IRC clients have a GUI channel list tool (If you're using X-Chat, see Window -> Channel List)
[01:30] <mtheath> Sache, that usually works much better, since it will filter results.
[01:30] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, ok i restarted the session and terminal works now
[01:30] <sauvin> Panfist, which desktop are you using?
[01:30] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: Try "ps -ef | grep firefox" and if you see it, do "sudo killall firefox"
[01:30] <Invisionfree> Help me:
[01:30] <younghacker> I've located .amule but i can't get it open

[01:31] <sauvin> Somebody in #ubuntu-effects said I have to be using Xgl before I can get compiz or beryl going, but doesn't answer when I ask how to determine whether or not this is what I'm using. Can somebody here answer that question?
[01:31] <aoeuhtns> rustalot, use apt-cache search <whatever>

[01:32] <astro76> rustalot, apt-cache search, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto
[01:32] <Megaqwerty> sauvin: you're welcome

[01:37] <geek> i have a quick question, what would be the best way to resize my linux partition?
[01:37] <Ronald> Hi! running procmail from dspam. dspam runs as root (apparently) and procmail is run from dspam. procmail runs as uid:mail gid:mail euid:root groups: mail. It delivers to the main maildir folder (ie no hits in procmailrc) as mail:mail ... however when a rule gets hit and procmail puts a mail in a subfolder it uses permissions root:mail which is a major problem, since the imapd cannot access that.
[01:37] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, what about devices?
[01:37] <Ronald> Anyone have a clue how to make procmail behave, permissionwise ?
[01:37] <Megaqwerty> geek: gparted

[01:37] <eboyjr> When you Enable Desktop Effects, can you choose between Beryl, Compiz, whatever. Is there a video of someone enabling Desktop Effects? I can't get them to work. I have Feisty.
[01:37] <dr_willis> spy80us,  nolapic disables the lapic features of the kernel.  ive used that with napic ages ago on a picky laptop
[01:37] <sauvin> Panfist, did you load up a flash plugin for your firefox?
[01:37] <shaft0> I'm having troubles installing/boot ubuntu

[01:38] <axcel461> Martin : what card?
[01:38] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: or...to clean it up...are you using ATA or SATA for your drives?
[01:38] <panfist> sauvin yes i did install flash
[01:38] <sauvin> Panfist, which one?
[01:38] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, standard ide
[01:38] <IntuitiveNipple> Invisionfree: " 2: Java: not found" thats the clue... line 2 has a problem
[01:38] <astro76> geek, you might try SystemRescueCD to run gparted
[01:38] <tupa> eboyjr, I have used compiz, you don't choose, you configure the window manager to run compiz effects, you could put gnome with compiz in gdm but it requires a little bit more tweaking
[01:38] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: the ls /dev/ | grep hd
[01:38] <Invisionfree> IntuitiveNipple: I figured it out.

[01:39] <panfist> axcel461 this time it does not say no process killed but if i ps ax it's still there
[01:39] <dr_willis> spy80us,  yep. thats possible. you are disabling parts of the kernel/features that those need it seems..   why do you need those options?

[01:40] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: those are your hard drives it found...I would guess hdc1 is what you want

[01:41] <dr_willis> spy80us,  thats odd. - More of a bios issue  then a cpu issue most likely. On my one flakey machine. I flashed/upgraded the bios and it fixed it where i dident need those optons any more.
[01:41] <soapee01> I'm having issues figuring out how to allow my wife's account to have the ability to unmount media devices (pendrives, cds, etc).  I've added her to every group I'm on except admin (plugdev, etc). Anything I'm missing?

[01:41] <^Juan^> how do i debianize a python script?
[01:41] <Martin8412> Uli as far as i know. Its an onboard card
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Martin8412: that is a realtec chipset
[01:42] <axcel461> Martin : what brand of computer, and is it a laptop or desktop?
[01:42] <spy80us> dr_willis:  let me see if can find a bios upgrade.. but from what i've read on the net these options are required

[01:42] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[01:42] <tupa> Martin8412 the same issue is reported on some forum, you have to compile the driver
[01:42] <speaker219> is this the most active irc channel on freenode or what
[01:42] <shaft0> can someone who is good with gparted and grub please msg me?
 I made the computer myself and its desktop

[01:43] <dr_willis> spy80us,  bummer.  My laptop was really flakey with the older kernel a few months back. latest kernel + bios update - and its a kicking linux box now
[01:43] <axcel461> Martin: did you see tupa's message?
[01:43] <eboyjr> tupa: Thanks for your help. My Card is a ATI Technologies Inc. Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF. I doesn't work, it's not fast enough. I tried a tutorial, but when I restarted, It couldn't run X Server or something. I had to start Windows and edit the changes I made.
[01:43] <Martin8412> No. Tupa where do i get the source ?
[01:43] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: I really have no idea what type it is...I really suggest you get a 7.04 disc.
[01:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Martin8412: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2119455#post2119455  are the instructions for compiling that driver

[01:45] <Jack_Sparrow> spy80us: Are you flashing the bios to fix a known problem that the bios fix is supposed to correct?
[01:45] <atoponce> my printer is cutting of the sides of the document, as if it were too big to fit on a page...
[01:45] <tupa> panfist, try sudo kill -9 8307
[01:45] <panfist> axcel461 if i wanted to do stuff like that i'd stick to windows. if there is anyway i can avoid that i will try
[01:45] <axcel461> panfist : did you try killall -9 firefox-bin?
[01:46] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: I don't know, as I've said, I've never used 5.10, and thus don't know it's capabilities out of the box.
[01:46] <axcel461> panfist : yeah, the sudo part I forgot

[01:47] <Jack_Sparrow> spy80us: Use caution when flashing the bios... and only to fix a known problem.  I dont think that will fix your issue....
[01:47] <axcel461> panfist : it's become a zombie process. Try logging out and in again. CTRL + BACKSPACE
[01:47] <chrisfnet> n2diy: I was using a static IP, but apparently that's not working. :)

[01:48] <tofaffy> yes saucisson
[01:48] <tofaffy> er
[01:48] <dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  it defainatly fixed mine. :) of course the reason the problem was found was due to linux users reporting it to HP. :)
[01:48] <tofaffy> sauvin
[01:48] <sauvin> Why didn't you just use the OOo that comes with it?
[01:48] <konam> is there a way of knowing how much time a task have been running?
[01:48] <tofaffy> It doesn't have everything, I don't have math, or drawing like the windows version

[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> dr_willis: Great..  just did not want a bad flash to trash a system when it would not fix the problem in the first place..
[01:49] <IntuitiveNipple> tupa, he gorn!
[01:49] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: give me a minute...I'm checking
[01:49] <owen1> how to access my ubuntu desktop from remote machine?
[01:49] <eeyore_> phlux beryl comes with feisty
[01:49] <shaft0> can someone ping me?
[01:49] <nikin> tofaffy: those can be installed via synaptic
[01:49] <dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  of course that may not fix HIS problem. >:)
[01:49] <tupa> yup
[01:49] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, ok
[01:49] <sauvin> Totaffy, do you know about the Synaptic Package Manager?
[01:49] <tupa> -_-
[01:49] <eeyore_> phlux just enable the extra repos and look for beryl in synaptic
[01:49] <neonlazer> Hi, I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.04(x64) on my Lenovo T61, I select option to install and text comes up for a second saying "Failed to allocate mem resource"..then the screen turns off and does not doing anything more. Any ideas on what is causing this possible..memory problem?
[01:49] <tofaffy> phlux, beryl is now unsupported, I'd suggest you use compiz-fusion
[01:49] <IntuitiveNipple> The zombie got him :p
[01:49] <phlux> eeyore_, what about using wireless internet?
[01:50] <tofaffy> phlux, and for that, I hafve a link if you'd like it
[01:50] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: sorted?
[01:50] <phlux> tofaffy, definitely
[01:50] <eeyore_> phlux you have trouble connecting or what?

[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> dr_willis: Some people just dont understand that a bad flash attempt leaves them with a doorstop
[01:50] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: after you download the .iso right click on it, and select "burn to cd" or "write to cd" (I don't remember which)
[01:50] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, ok
[01:50] <panfist> intuitivenipple, tupa, sauvin, now the process is gone but i'm still using 180 out of 192 megs of ram, with no indication of that much ram usage according to top or xfce process manager
[01:50] <phlux> eeyore_, don't know yet. Haven't installed it
[01:51] <ubuntu12> how i can deleted the grub from live cd?
[01:51] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it?
[01:51] <sauvin> panfist, which process is gone?
[01:51] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, hopefully the newer version will be able to do what i need lol
[01:51] <dr_willis> ubuntu12,  install a different boot loader over it.
[01:51] <eeyore_> phlux do you know the make of your wireless card? and which ubuntu ver are you using?
[01:51] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: Linux will use as all the RAM it can get to buffer things until that memory is needed by programs
[01:51] <sauvin> (and how many daemons are you running?)
[01:51] <ubuntu12> dr_willis how?
[01:51] <panfist> sauvin the firefox-bin process is gone

[01:52] <NETWizz> I need linux to do a quote of the day
[01:52] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, ok i did manage to get hdc1 to mount to the desktop folder.. but when i try to open it it says i dont have permission to view the files inside
[01:52] <panfist> intuitivenipple but i do need the ram for other programs, all im running is xchat, terminal, and exaile, yet whenever i switch focus from one window to another, it access the swap file
[01:52] <dr_willis> ubuntu12,  you want to make it  boot Linux or windows?
[01:52] <sauvin> I truthfully may not be able to help with a system having less than 250 megs of ram; I'm running a full gig and it's probably also pretty full.
[01:52] <phlux> eeyore_, I don't know what kind of wireless card I have. I just got this laptop a few days ago and the wireless is built into it. I've never ran Ubuntu before...going to run 7.04
[01:52] <WGGMk> NETWizz: "Segmentation Faults SUCK!!" there ya go
[01:52] <panfist> intuitivenipple the system is running much slower than it usually does
[01:52] <sauvin> How are you determining how much RAM is being used?
[01:52] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: in the terminal: sudo nautilus (then use that nautilus window to open it)
[01:52] <tupa> panfist, I have 192 RAM too, desktop managers suck all your ram
[01:52] <tupa> panfist, if RAM is really an issue you could use a lighter desktop manager
[01:52] <tofaffy> phlux, did you get my link?
[01:52] <john`> can someone help, I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[01:52] <eeyore_> phlux what's the make of the pc? frankly wireless should work unless it is an atheros card
[01:52] <sauvin> typa, what's lighter than xfce?
[01:53] <kinection> NETWizz: quote of the day when you login to the shell/terminal ?
[01:53] <ubuntu12> dr_willis windows
[01:53] <eeyore_> phlux and most pcs have an intel one since they use a windows processor
[01:53] <kinection> NETWizz: or just some random quote every time you login?
[01:53] <panfist> tupa well now all i have running is top. if i open or close xfce process manager the amount of ram used does not change significantly
[01:53] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: does it usually use a lot less in the same circumstances?
[01:53] <panfist> sauvin im looking at the output of top

[01:54] <phlux> tofaffy, ati
[01:54] <kinection> NETWizz: through the GDM?
[01:54] <panfist> intuitivenipple its usually at around 100 megs used, i suspect if i reboot things will run smoothly again for a while but these are problems i was trying to avoid by choosing linux, especially choosing xfce over gnome because im not running ont he newest hardware
[01:54] <sauvin> Kk, I have a gig of ram, and half of it is used. I'm running KDE, Kopete, firefox, xchat and a terminal, but I can't tell you (right now) how many or what kinds of daemons.

[01:55] <tupa> panfist, having 192 RAM in this age is painful, I changed my mobo and my video card doesn't fit, so I have to use 64 mb RAM (my real ram is 256)
[01:55] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: Examine the output of cat /proc/meminfo see if you can find some clues
[01:55] <owen1> kinection: i'll be happy to know for each.
[01:55] <illriginal> Hey guys... how do I find my DNS address?
[01:55] <kinection> owen1: if shell, simply install openssh-server, tell your router to forward port 22 to your computer. then you can just ssh
[01:55] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[01:55] <eeyore_> phlux aah then you might have an atheros. In that case you should activate extra repositories in synaptic. There's plenty of instructions out there to tell you how you do that. But ask if you can't. When you do, the restricted drivers manager should install the needed closed source binaries for the wireless card
[01:55] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: pay particular attention to memory used by cache and buffers
[01:55] <owen1> kinection: ok, i'll write it down!

[01:55] <kinection> owen1: if you want graphical, look for something like.. x11vnc or similar
[01:55] <panfist> tupa i know its painful its only on this old laptop i have such little ram, on my desktop i have 2 gigs
[01:56] <bad_boy> i'll instal ubuntu theese days. I want default boot os to be windows. how to do it?
[01:56] <illriginal> Hey guys... how do I find my DNS address?
[01:56] <IntuitiveNipple> illriginal: Yes, it is a fully qualified domain name (FQDN)
[01:56] <eeyore_> phlux but activating repos is pretty easy in feisty. in synaptic one of the menu items is repositories. and you should enable multiverse and universe
[01:56] <owen1> kinection: thanks!
[01:56] <beterraba> how i can learn about BDI?
[01:56] <Megaqwerty> bad_boy: the option is in /boot/grub/menu.lst I don't remember where...let me see if I can find it...
[01:56] <phlux> eeyore_, just says "Dell wireless"
[01:56] <illriginal> IntuitiveNipple this is a FWDN: name c-66-229-115-178.hsd1.fl.comcast.net, ?
[01:56] <beterraba> BDI
[01:56] <bad_boy> ok
[01:56] <panfist> intuitivenipple it shows buffers 612kb, cached 60k kb
[01:56] <tofaffy> owen1, sudo apt-get install x11vnc and then just open port 5900 and start the server, then from another pc, you'll wanna install the client version of vnc and just use your ip
[01:56] <eeyore_> phlux where does it say that?
[01:56] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, cant get to it.. but that is the hard drive cause i tryed to move the folder to the nautilus window and the hard drive spun up.. but i cant see the folder from that window
[01:56] <kinection> owen1: with x11vnc, you will need to forward different ports, or you can just tunnel through ssh. for a client, look for something like vncviewer.
[01:57] <Gambrinus> owen1: i have good success with FreeNX.
[01:57] <john`> can someone help?
[01:57] <bad_boy> (Megaqwerty): i'm waiting
[01:57] <maelcum> illriginal: host -t PTR <your ip>
[01:57] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: what is using the most, can you tell?
[01:57] <DavidHKMrPowers> anyone knows how to add something to run after startup?
[01:57] <Megaqwerty> bad_boy: yeah, the option is at the top of the file.
[01:57] <owen1> Gambrinus: thanks
[01:57] <owen1> kinection: great, thanks
[01:57] <Gambrinus> owen1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX

[01:57] <owen1> tofaffy thanks
[01:57] <tha_Ca> hi
[01:58] <DavidHKMrPowers> any autoexec.bat in linux?
[01:58] <NETWizz> My town is having a Linux day
[01:58] <blairelli1> A Virtual PC is a good enough indication that everything is compatible right
[01:58] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: no
[01:58] <NETWizz> .profile
[01:58] <NETWizz> .bash_profile
[01:58] <panfist> intuitivenipple i dont know i wish i could sort the output of top by memory usage instead of cpu because its the only process manager i trust
[01:58] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: you need to go to /home/ubuntu/Desktop
[01:58] <NETWizz> Think of it like an autoexec.bat for each user
[01:58] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: it's in there
[01:58] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection :(
[01:58] <NETWizz> Also is rc.x levels
[01:58] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: what are you trying to do?
[01:58] <bad_boy> (Megaqwerty): i'm waiting
[01:58] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, nvm i had it open locations   ~/Desktop/hdc1
[01:58] <owen1> so when connecting remotly with no GUI, i can only see the command line?
[01:58] <bad_boy> (Megaqwerty): i'm waiting
[01:58] <nikin> NETWizz: i want to live in your town :D
[01:58] <Megaqwerty> bad_boy: I already told you
[01:58] <NETWizz> Anyway my local PC Users Group, which i never attend is haivng a linux install day
[01:58] <serax> hello
[01:58] <bad_boy> ok tnx
[01:59] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection want to 'screen' a process in background and want it to continue after accidental reboot
[01:59] <NETWizz> They typically spend all their time with their thumbs up their ass discussing things like how to print a post card
[01:59] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, yup that worked that time.. now i see all my files on my windows drive
[01:59] <owen1> do i need static IP to connect remotely?
[01:59] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: screen doesn't persist after reboots
[01:59] <NETWizz> how to do digital photography with windows vista
[01:59] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: you can't continue a screen after rebooted
[01:59] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: good luck
[01:59] <NETWizz> Boring shit
[01:59] <nikin> NETWizz: :D lol
[01:59] <Music_Shuffle> !ohmy
[01:59] <john`> can someone help please
[01:59] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:59] <wckdkl0wn> Megaqwerty, ty so much
[01:59] <WGGMk> anyone have an experience with wine on amd64?
[01:59] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[01:59] <Megaqwerty> wckdkl0wn: you're quite welcome
[01:59] <NETWizz> They are having a meeting where people bring in their computers for help installing linux
[01:59] <serax> you would think that more people use this channel !
[01:59] <maelcum> ok... so i'm looking for an mp3 tag & rename tool which asks cddb or something like that
[01:59] <Gambrinus> owen1: either works.  i connect to my router ip address with a specific port number.  that port is then forwarded to a specific computer in my lan
[01:59] <NETWizz> They will provide internet access
[01:59] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection so, i want linux to run 'screen xxxxxx' things after restart
[02:00] <NETWizz> I am going to bring my laptop for internet access and assist people
[02:00] <nikin> NETWizz: make your new linux users group and discuss other things :D
[02:00] <tofaffy> Hey, I open open office presentation, and I have a power point file open, I click view>slideshow and it freezes up, any idweas?
[02:00] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: k, well you can have it do it after you login. By looking at your .bashrc
[02:00] <NETWizz> I am going to burn an entire spindle of Fiesty Fawn Live CDs
[02:00] <NETWizz> and give them out to everybody
[02:00] <serax> aww a whole spindle why???
[02:00] <Ronald> Hi! running procmail from dspam. dspam runs as root (apparently) and procmail is run from dspam. procmail runs as uid:mail gid:mail euid:root groups: mail. It delivers to the main maildir folder (ie no hits in procmailrc) as mail:mail ... however when a rule gets hit and procmail puts a mail in a subfolder it uses permissions root:mail which is a major problem, since the imapd cannot access that.
[02:00] <sauvin> it might not actually "freeze" - give it a minute. OOo can take a while to wake up.
[02:00] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: .bashrc is sourced when you open up a new shell. so you can add screen xxxx to the end of the bashrc if you'd like.
[02:00] <NETWizz> I have over 300 cd-r blanks
[02:01] <Ronald> Anyone have a clue how to make procmail behave, permissionwise ?
[02:01] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection can't do this kind of thing in global scope?
[02:01] <Megaqwerty> NETWizz: lol, way to crusade! ;)
[02:01] <NETWizz> I may as well bring enough discs
[02:01] <tofaffy> okay, sauvin
[02:01] <serax> just burn one and have tehn pass it around
[02:01] <Theory> NETWizz: not going to use shipit?
[02:01] <owen1> Gambrinus: thanks
[02:01] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: You mean for anybody?
[02:01] <NETWizz> what is ship it?
[02:01] <WGGMk> can anyone help me with WINE i cant get a soluation from the winehq channel
[02:01] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[02:01] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection i mean if the system is rebooted
[02:01] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: You can change the global bashrc in /etc/
[02:01] <Megaqwerty> NETWizz: it's a service that sends you free ubuntu cds by mail
[02:01] <Theory> canonical will send you free CDs
[02:01] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: you want auto login as well?
[02:01] <NETWizz> I will burn them
[02:01] <sauvin> On my Fedora Core install, it can take as much as five minutes for the little ogre (how's that for cleaned-up language?) to wake up.
[02:01] <JayRoe> can someone please tell me how I reload drivers in ubuntu?
[02:01] <serax> oh man just got 7.04 and forgot to get wine THAKS for remoinding me
[02:01] <eeyore_> WGGMk say what the problem is
[02:01] <IntuitiveNipple> panfist: Try this: ps -efly --sort rss
[02:02] <Music_Shuffle> NETWizz, you could just burn 3-4 and let people use one as a demo, with the others to help install
[02:02] <tofaffy> well, sauvin the thign is...it doesn't show the background or anything that was set for the powerpoint, and before when I opened open office, it wasn't the same color as my theme I had set, it was the open office main theme thing or w/e, and now it's the colors that I have set for my ubuntu theme.
[02:02] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection i am not sure if it's possible.. but i think it's something like how apache service works
[02:02] <NETWizz> @Music, I kind of want to give something away
[02:02] <WGGMk> ive installed wine from the repo package and from source compile. running winecfg spits segmentation fault (core dumped)
[02:02] <serax> are there more than 300 ppl there?
[02:02] <juano__> hello, can anyone tell me if there is a way with or without the status docklet plugin to leave xmms only in system tray without it showing in the taskbar
[02:02] <NETWizz> I am considering buying the printable CD Rs
[02:02] <NETWizz> and printing the name of hte users group
[02:02] <NETWizz> as well on the cd
[02:02] <serax> NETwizz is there even 300 ppl there?
[02:02] <askand> Someone here good with gtkdialog?
[02:02] <nikin> NETWizz: just burn them... if you can aford it ... it is good for people having a Ubuntu disc....
[02:02] <tofaffy> also, sauvin when I click view powerpoint, it opens another new powerpoint.
[02:03] <Music_Shuffle> NETWizz, oh, I was going to say you should just let them copy the disks, but if you have the time/inclination, I guess you -could- do it yourself...>.>
[02:03] <NETWizz> Last year there was over 400
[02:03] <tofaffy> and now I can't swithc back to that desktop
[02:03] <serax> WOW
[02:03] <panfist> intuitivenipple that works
[02:03] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: i guess i'm not understanding what you want exactly. So you restart computer and it loads up GUI? CLI?
[02:03] <NETWizz> I am planning on making just 50 Ubuntu CDs
[02:03] <sauvin> Hrm. Maybe I should shut up. I don't know anything about PowerPoint or its workalikes.
[02:03] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: and you want it to open screen whenever you start a new shell?
[02:03] <madman91> is there a way i can make a device that is shown in lsusb become a harddisk?
[02:03] <NETWizz> I am certain Ubuntu will be there anyway
[02:03] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[02:03] <serax> is it like a lan party thing or is it come in chat and leave thing>?
[02:03] <JayRoe> can someone please tell me how to load a driver?
[02:03] <NETWizz> `It is pretty popular
[02:04] <Davy_Jones> JayRoe: put him in the car
[02:04] <chrisfnet> n2diy: It even gets an IP from the DHCP server fine, but still won't respond
[02:04] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection no, i just want it to run some commands after restart.
[02:04] <tas> need help. having a problem installing it. it always gets stuck on [DR-DOS]  A:
[02:04] <serax> lol you should make xubuntu for the old people lol
[02:04] <serax> or slackware
[02:04] <JayRoe> davy_jones, could you please tell me the command to reload my nvidia drivers?
[02:04] <NETWizz> Must be their Windows admins
[02:04] <NETWizz> http://www.fallbrookpcug.com/
[02:04] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: oh, look at the init system then. and the rc levels
[02:04] <nikin> NETWizz: i assume to burn some edgy or dapper discs also, couse some laptops have problems with .20 kernel
[02:04] <NETWizz> Their website is always down
[02:04] <NETWizz> They probably run Windows Server :-(
[02:05] <NETWizz> I should burn some Edgy?
[02:05] <Davy_Jones> JayRoe: yeah, open the door put the drivers in and shut it
[02:05] <WGGMk> after installing wine, i run winecfg and recieve "Segmentation Fault (core dumped)" any thoughts??????????
[02:05] <Megaqwerty> JayRoe: you should probably just restart the X server (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace)
[02:05] <NETWizz> Why would I burn Edgy and Dapper?
[02:05] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: in /etc/rc#.d/ are the start up files for different run levels
[02:05] <Davy_Jones> then them drivers will be loaded
[02:05] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: they are basically symlinks to /etc/init.d/
[02:05] <Megaqwerty> JayRoe: but if you need to remove the module, use 'sudo rmmod', and to re-insert it, use 'sudo modprobe'
[02:05] <JayRoe> davy_jones, sorry but I don't find you funny.
[02:06] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection oh, so they are like autoexec.bat then :)
[02:06] <n2diy> chrisfnet: Good luck! I'm stumped.
[02:06] <NETWizz> @David each is a file
[02:06] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: in a sense, but more flexible IMO. although i haven't hacked around autoexec.bat as much
[02:06] <NETWizz> and it calls a deamon
[02:06] <Davy_Jones> JayRoe: i'll work more on that thanks
[02:06] <NETWizz> Either kills (stops) or starts
[02:06] <nikin> NETWizz: my clevo m120c for instance reports CPU overheating and shuts down in seconds... overheating of 4000C
[02:06] <NETWizz> Anything with an S starts with a K is killed
[02:06] <Music_Shuffle> NETWizz, in the event that some of the other PCs people bring might have issues with the kernel versions, etc, in which case you might need older versions.  Prolly just 1-2 of each.
[02:06] <nikin> on Fiesty
[02:07] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection thanks :) will check about it :)
[02:07] <NETWizz> Okay
[02:07] <JayRoe> megaqwerty, the thing is that after I go into standby (S3 suspend to ram), the video is all messed up. Is there a way to tell it to ctrl alt backspace ubuntu after the standby?
[02:07] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: goodl uck
[02:07] <kinection> *luck
[02:07] <NETWizz> I have been running Linux 2.x.x for years
[02:07] <NETWizz> I used to run 2.4.x
[02:07] <NETWizz> then 2.6.x
[02:07] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection this sentense scares me
[02:07] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: Have you enabled Desktop Effects aka compiz?
[02:07] <NETWizz> come to think of it, I currently run 2.6.x
[02:07] <JayRoe> intuitivenipple, yes
[02:07] <Megaqwerty> JayRoe: if there is a way to tell it to restart X after coming out of standby, I don't know of it. Sorry.
[02:07] <NETWizz> I mean 2.6.x is really old
[02:08] <NETWizz> been around for a long long time
[02:08] <NETWizz> Does Ubuntu have any 2.4 kernels?
[02:08] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanage-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[02:08] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: Try disabling them before the suspend, see if it makes a difference. there are known issues with Nvidia and compiz
[02:08] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection, 'good luck' is for something diificult
[02:08] <JayRoe> thanks intuitivenipple. I'll give it a try
[02:08] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: lol, i'm just wishing you good luck in doing whatever you are doing since I don't exactly know what you are going about.
[02:08] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: Do you know which model nvidia card it is?
[02:08] <octocore> i'm  having some trouble with my initial ubuntu setup... is there anyone who can help me troubleshoot my problem?
[02:08] <Invisionfree> How can I install the VERY LATEST version of Java?
[02:08] <tas> if some1 can help me plz msg me on aim: xx tas 1337 xx
[02:08] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: this "screen" thing confuses me as to what you are trying to do
[02:08] <john`> !ping
[02:08] <ubotu> pong
[02:09] <JayRoe> intuitivenipple, geforce 6150 onboard
[02:09] <NETWizz> Request Timed Out
[02:09] <Megaqwerty>  !ask | octocore
[02:09] <ubotu> octocore: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:09] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: ok... I was going to suggest something put it doesn't apply to that model
[02:09] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: Either init.d will solve your problems, or something like /etc/bashrc. Depends on which point of the boot process you want things to run
[02:09] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanagement-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[02:09] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: which nvidia driver version are you using?
[02:09] <nv7f> help msg
[02:09] <octocore> i'm having trouble with ubuntu recognizing my drivers.
[02:10] <JayRoe> IntuitiveNipple, the one from the restricted drivers manager
[02:10] <WGGMk> having problems with WINE.. giving segmentation fault (core dumped) feedback when running winecfg or just invoking wine.... any thoguhts??
[02:10] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: because, if you're talking about screen, it seems like init.d might be too early
[02:10] <nikin> NETWizz: my notebbok runs fine with 2.6.12 to 2.6.18, thats tested, but 2.6.20 couses problems, but 2.6.21 is ok ... this heat-checking  problem is reported on lot of notebooks, strange tho.. why they don patch it in 2.6.20
[02:10] <octocore> i.e. my highest video resolution is 800x600, and my network card is not shown.
[02:10] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: That should be okay then
[02:10] <Megaqwerty> octocore: what version are you using?
[02:10] <octocore> 7.04
[02:10] <e-squizo> I'm trying to have udev start some programs upon insertion of an USB wlan card, and to stop them upon removal. I'm doing this through the ifupdown mechanism, which works exactly 50% of great: it starts the programs when I plug the card in, but it fails to stop them when I remove it. Any ideas?
[02:10] <Megaqwerty> octocore: What graphics card do you have?
[02:10] <JayRoe> intuitivenipple, the screen gets messed up after standby, but if do a ctrl alt backspace, the screen gets back to normal
[02:10] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection ar, i understand what you mean now. does my server auto login as root for me?
[02:11] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: I hope not!
[02:11] <octocore> Megaqwerty: my graphics card and network card are both integrated in my intel mobo
[02:11] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: yeah, try it without Effects see how you go. If it's that you can focus on workarounds for Compiz
[02:11] <rampy> hi guys i have a question about connecting to my wireless network
[02:11] <nikin> octocore: what chipset?
[02:11] <rampy> Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG
[02:11] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection since i use virtual server, i can reboot it soemwhere and after that, apache runs itself
[02:11] <john`> can anyone hear me?
[02:11] <rampy> i am using the Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG network card
[02:11] <putergirl> .
[02:11] <JayRoe> IntuitiveNipple, can I disable it without the use of sudo?
[02:11] <Megaqwerty> octocore: I have to go, I'll let nikin handle this
[02:11] <rampy> and i am not able to connect  to my router
[02:11] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: oh, I see.. you just want to start some daemon on restart?
[02:12] <octocore> Megaqwerty: k.
[02:12] <tas> need help. having a problem installing ubuntu. after it boots up it gets stuck on [DR-DOS]  A:\>
[02:12] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: Yes, goto the menu System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[02:12] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:12] <rampy> i am using  WPA  key
[02:12] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection maybe :)
[02:12] <rampy> anyone to help with wireless networking?
[02:12] <nikin> octocore: so.. what chiipset?
[02:12] <Niklas_E> Is there any way to set some option that update-manager and apt-get and synaptic shouldn't update like mplayer? (I have compiled that self with special options)
[02:13] <octocore> nikin: im not sure, i have a new dell w/ core 2, 1.8gh
[02:13] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: well, you can simply look at some of the init.d scripts already on your system and figure it out from there. They are just shell scripts that take some arguments {start|stop|restart}
[02:13] <kirk4linux> rampy which wifi nic?
[02:13] <JayRoe> IntuitiveNipple, I'm sure that's disabled. I think I lost that menu when I installed compiz fusion
[02:13] <rampy> kirk4linux:  wifi nic?
[02:13] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:13] <nikin> octocore: do an $ lspci
[02:13] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection o i see, one more thing. does linux needs to run as a login before it can run any commands?
[02:14] <rampy> kirk4linux:  its a home network with a WPA shared key
[02:14] <IntuitiveNipple> JayRoe: ok, well Effects is a pared-down Compiz. You need to disable Compiz in that case to test whether its the cause
[02:14] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: depends on the command
[02:14] <kirk4linux> rampy what part of wifi (wireless networking) u need help with
[02:14] <rampy> kirk4linux: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG  wireless network card i am using...
[02:14] <john`>  I accidently remove the powermanagement-interface trying to fix something, now I can't log into gnome, is there a way to get it back?
[02:14] <octocore> nikin: i cant connect to the internet w/ ubuntu so i'm on vista now.
[02:14] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection how about this ? 'php abc.php'
[02:15] <IntuitiveNipple> `john: you could try sudo apt-get install gnome-power-management - if that is what you removed
[02:15] <nikin> octocore: do you use wireless?
[02:15] <rampy> kirk4linux: i am not able to connect  wireless  though ethernet works
[02:15] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: it could work
[02:15] <NETWizz> I am going to buy a 24" monitor
[02:15] <NETWizz> and take it with me to the install fest
[02:15] <octocore> nikin: no, just the integrated card.
[02:15] <WGGMk> john: sudo apt-get install <whatever you removed> then---> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:15] <NETWizz> Going to upgrade from Edgy to Fiesty, and remove Beryl install Fusion
[02:15] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection as what user would it run then?
[02:15] <NETWizz> Upgrade my Video card and double my RAM
[02:15] <nikin> octocore: ohh and ubuntu does not see it
[02:15] <nikin> ?
[02:15] <octocore> right
[02:15] <rampy> kirk4linux:  it does not connect even though it says the wireless network active
[02:15] <NETWizz> Then I am going to make another user account
[02:15] <pinstp> hi
[02:15] <NETWizz> and let people play with my computer
[02:15] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:16] <kinection> DavidHKMrPowers: i think init would run as root
[02:16] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: Correction, I mistyped: "sudo apt-get install gnome-power-manager"
[02:16] <rampy> kirk4linux:  can u help?
[02:16] <nikin> octocore: dot you have an other PC to chat while you use ubuntu on the other?
[02:16] <DavidHKMrPowers> kinection cool! thanks :)
[02:16] <octocore> nikin: no, sorry.
[02:16] <pinstp> i need help ppl
[02:16] <kirk4linux> rampy  - does it ask for a key to connect and can it see the beacon from your router?
[02:16] <WGGMk> pinstp: with what?
[02:16] <nikin> octocore: its ok
[02:17] <nikin> octocore: you used ubuntu on other system before?
[02:17] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: If you removed the service itself, then do "sudo apt-get install gnome-powermanager"
[02:17] <pinstp> i need to instal wine but donno how
[02:17] <rampy> kirk4linux:  yes i can see the SSID of my network and other networks nearby
[02:17] <octocore> nikin: i installed it on another computer yesterday w/ no problem.. that was my first time using it though.
[02:17] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I can't do it, it won't let me log into the gnome to get internet
[02:17] <WGGMk> pinstp: what version you use of ubuntu?
[02:17] <IntuitiveNipple> pinstp: Try "sudo apt-get install wine"
[02:18] <pinstp> newest
[02:18] <nikin> octocore: you router orks with DHCP? do you use DHCP ayway?
[02:18] <kirk4linux> when you try to connect does it ask for the key? what build of ubuntu are you using?
[02:18] <WGGMk> 32 or amd64?
[02:18] <octocore> nikin: in the network settings folder in ubuntu, only "modem" shows up... no "wireless" or wired"
[02:18] <rampy> 6.06 LTS
[02:18] <konam> someone knows how to check the disk just like ubuntu does every 40 mounts?
[02:18] <nikin> octocore: i see
[02:18] <rampy> yes it asks for key
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: You don't need to log into gnome to do that, just a command prompt. Press Ctl-Alt-F1 and then login to the terminal and do it
[02:18] <WGGMk> pinstp fesity 7.04 is the newest
[02:18] <octocore> nikin: im connected to school network, dont know about dhcp
[02:18] <aw> u
[02:18] <PenguinistaKC> konam man fdisk
[02:19] <rampy> i am going through network setting
[02:19] <PenguinistaKC> sorry, man fsck
[02:19] <nikin> octocore: if you didnt had to do IP settings then it is DHCP
[02:19] <octocore> nikin: okay then yeah, i'm using dhcp
[02:19] <kirk4linux> I am using the same build with a Atheroes nic try using a 128 bit WEP key
[02:19] <WGGMk> pinstp: this should help http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[02:20] <e-squizo> I'm trying to have udev start some programs upon insertion of an USB wlan card, and to stop them upon removal. I'm doing this through the ifupdown mechanism, which works exactly 50% of great: it starts the programs when I plug the card in, but it fails to stop them when I remove it. Any ideas?
[02:20] <nikin> octocore: did you try to look after your card with $lspci    or    $ifconfig    ?
[02:20] <Sirrush> Hello everyone
[02:20] <octocore> nikin: no, where would i input this?
[02:20] <WGGMk> pinstp: follow that guide and add the repository, then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine
[02:20] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[02:21] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it said it can't find package gnome-powermanager
[02:21] <nikin> octocore: just open a terminal, and there .. you ca find it in the menu under Accesories
[02:21] <rampy> kirk4linux:  do i need to install WPA applicant?
[02:21] <nikin> and save the results on an usb key, and come back on vista
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: Sorry, my mistake, typo! there's a hypen in there "gnome-power-manager"
[02:22] <octocore> nikin: ok, ty.
[02:22] <WGGMk> john: try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gnome-power-manager
[02:22] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:22] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: hang on, i'm taking you round in circles now. Let me check on this
[02:22] <john`> I can't sudo apt-get update, cause it won't let me get online..
[02:22] <WGGMk> is X running?
[02:23] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: Have you logged in via a terminal?
[02:23] <kirk4linux> rampy that could be - when I connected my Atheroes nic i did not see an option for WPA, so I just used WEP since it was supported out of the box - it's nice when things just work with minimal effort
[02:23] <john`> yeah, I can log into terminal
[02:23] <WGGMk> john: and it wont let you apt-get?
[02:23] <IntuitiveNipple> john` You should be able to start the network and connect then. What kind of network connection do you use?
[02:23] <john`> with ctr-alt-f1, or gnome failsafe
[02:23] <john`> wireless pcmia card
[02:24] <WGGMk> john: try it from CTRL-ALT-F1 (log in like usual) then sudo apt-get update
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> Is it managed by NetworkManager? this is Ubuntu Feisty ?
[02:24] <john`> yes
[02:24] <john`> I believe so
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: what does ifconfig report?
[02:24] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:25] <unagi> hello all....if any care from my little partitioning table problem im now set up and running again
[02:25] <mattva01> has anyone here had any luck with  using a DWA-542 wireless N card with Ndiswrapper?
[02:25] <Pe1o> unagi,  congradulations
[02:25] <pinstp> not me
[02:25] <john`> how do I scroll up in the terminal in ctr-alt-f1?
[02:25] <john`> I can't see everything on top
[02:26] <WGGMk> john: the up key
[02:26] <rampy> hot to connect to my wireless router ip address?
[02:26] <rampy> like in windows?
[02:26] <john`> the up key just display what I previously typed
[02:26] <WGGMk> rampy: the admin page of the router?
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: output pipe via more: "ifconfig | more"
[02:26] <WGGMk> john: im not sure then
[02:26] <rampy> WGGMk:  yes
[02:26] <blairellis> Hey, I want to install Ubuntu, but I want to leave my partitions for Mandriva so I can transfer my movies and mp3s over when I am done. What is the best way to set up a partition so I wont delete these items?
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: then press SPACE to see each page, or ENTER to advance a line at a time
[02:27] <WGGMk> rampy: same as in windows.. open a web browser (usually default http://192.168.1.1)
[02:27] <Pe1o> blairellis,  just rezise your mandriva partition to make some free space to install ubuntu on
[02:27] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I'm not connected through my wireless
[02:27] <pinstp> sumtimes it is 192.168.0.1
[02:27] <sauvin> gparted seems to work fairly well for that kind of thing.
[02:27] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: ath0 display no network ip
[02:27] <WGGMk> blairellis: i know with the livecd when you decide to install you will have a nice GUI to choose the entire disk or use the free space
[02:28] <blairellis> Right, just use say 75 of the 150 remaining?
[02:28] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: okay... are you running NetworkManager? ( ps -ef | grep Network )
[02:28] <sauvin> I hope those numbers are in gigabytes...
[02:28] <blairellis> yes
[02:28] <toad_> hi boys & girls
[02:28] <rampy> WGGMk: ok one more think how can i access the WPA-PSK key in ubuntu
[02:28] <blairellis> Id be hosed if they were anything less ;)
[02:28] <sauvin> Then you'll be OK. I have a fairly packed install of ubuntu running on 13 gigs.
[02:29] <WGGMk> blairellisL im sure with the advanced options you can be more specific.. but it might just use the ENTIRE free space
[02:29] <rampy> WGGMk:  i only see option of WEP
[02:29] <WGGMk> rampy: i honestly dont know that
[02:29] <rampy> since i guess WPA-PSK is more secure than WEP
[02:29] <putergirl> .
[02:29] <rampy> WGGMk:  which is more secure?
[02:29] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it display a few lines..
[02:29] <blairellis> ok. I'll give it a go.
[02:30] <WGGMk> rampy: in my experience if your just running a home wireless lan you dont need real secure, so unless you really need WPA i would just use WEP
[02:30] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: that could be good :)
[02:30] <owen1> kinection: i installed openssh on my desktop, portforward port 22. how do I connect from remote machine?
[02:30] <linxeh> WGGMk: it depends where you live
[02:30] <kinection> owen1: openssh-server?
[02:30] <pinstp> were can i find the ubuntu package manager at
[02:30] <owen1> kinection: true
[02:30] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: What does iwconfig report?
[02:30] <owen1> kinection: btw, i have non static ip
[02:30] <kinection> owen1: you can connect by typing in the terminal 'ssh username@serverip'
[02:30] <WGGMk> linxeh: again my experience is from customers (people needed wireless lan's setup, people that pay me to do it, IE: average people)
[02:30] <owen1> kinection: i set up this ip on my d-link.
[02:30] <tofaffy> pinstp, sudo synaptic
[02:31] <kinection> owen1: it's probably best to get a static ip
[02:31] <sauvin> pinstp, you can use apt-get at the command line; somewhere in the menus there's a Synaptics Package Manager thing.
[02:31] <kinection> owen1: for your internal network
[02:31] <owen1> kinection: what is my user name and my ip?
[02:31] <pinstp> kk
[02:31] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: there is IEEE 802.11g on ath0 , the rest display "no wireless extension"
[02:31] <kinection> owen1: you are accessing this from outside your LAN?
[02:31] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:31] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it detected it, but its not on, that's the problem
[02:31] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: Does it report the ESSID on ath0? or is it empty?
[02:32] <tofaffy> WGGMk, what seemst o be your promlem?
[02:32] <tofaffy> er, problem
[02:32] <owen1> kinection: both of the machines are in my house, using wireless connection.
[02:32] <kinection> owen1: if you are outside of your LAN, then you want your internet ip address, if you are internal, then you can just use the internal ip address. You can find the ip address by going on to the server and typing 'ifconfig'
[02:32] <WGGMk> toffary: Segmentation Fault (core dumped) when invoking wine or winecfg
[02:32] <blairellis> The test of the file system with type ext3 in partition #6 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) found uncorrected errors.
[02:32] <blairellis> If you do not go back to the partitioning menu and correct these errors, the partition will be used as is.
[02:32] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: yes it does display that,  "ESSID:""  Nickname:""
[02:32] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it?
[02:32] <kinection> owen1: oh.. in that case, you didn't need to port forward :). sorry about that. I thought you were connecting from outside
[02:32] <blairellis> Whats all that mean?
[02:32] <tofaffy> hehe...thats over my head, WGGMk  :P
[02:32] <tofaffy> WGGMk, try google maybe?
[02:32] <mikubuntu> hello guys, can anyone tell me what method is best *easiest to get and install skype?
[02:32] <WGGMk> tofaffy: thanks though, been there and winehq already lol
[02:32] <owen1> kinection: it's good, i want access ffrom outside too!
[02:32] <tas> need help. having a problem installing ubuntu. after it boots up it gets stuck on [DR-DOS]  A:\>
[02:33] <tofaffy> WGGMk, also, i'd try the #wine channel
[02:33] <fistfullofroses> apt-get install skype
[02:33] <Tmi-> isn't it in synaptic, WGGMk?
[02:33] <kirk4linux> rampy I had to leave for awhile - did you get into your router?
[02:33] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: I assume you know your WiFi network SSID? try this: "sudo iwconfig ath0 essid <mySSID>"
[02:33] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: do you run amd64?
[02:33] <linxeh> WGGMk: sure, but some areas are prone to WEP attacks. If the client has WPA compatible hardware, it is the obvious choice. I live in an affluent part of the UK, and I've seen people hijack my WEP network
[02:33] <Tmi-> sorry wrong person :D
[02:33] <owen1> kinection: what is my user and my ip?
[02:33] <WGGMk> Tmi: i run amd64
[02:33] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: obviously, replace <mySSID> with your SSID
[02:33] <kinection> owen1: you need to go on the machine you want to conenct to and figure out it's ip address by typing in 'ifconfig'. Then from the machine you will be connecting from, type in "ssh username@ipaddress" with the ipaddress beting that of which you just found and the username will be the same user name you use to login to that computer when youare physcailly there
[02:33] <Tmi-> WGGMk wrote wrong name, asnwered to the one who wrote above you :)
[02:33] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I don't know my network SSID =(, never try to configure this through terminal before, lol
[02:34] <WGGMk> Timi: do you need help with Skype?
[02:34] <owen1> kinection: should i google for 'what is my ip?' instead? i need external ip/
[02:34] <owen1> kinection: i think..
[02:34] <tas> need help. having a problem installing ubuntu. after it boots up it gets stuck on [DR-DOS]  A:\>
[02:34] <fistfullofroses> john "iwlist scan"
[02:34] <pinstp> no dont google lol
[02:34] <blairellis> Well, Im going to boot back into Mandriva back up and do a clean install. I'll be back in a bit
[02:34] <mikubuntu> wggmk: i need help with skype
[02:34] <sauvin> tas, um, HUH!?
[02:34] <kinection> owen1: ? i thought you were connecting from internal?
[02:34] <tofaffy> owen1, google what is my ip and click on the frist link that pops up, that gives you your external ip
[02:34] <Tmi-> WGGMk: No, I replied to the one asking how to install skype, but i wrote your name in the reply instead of his :)
[02:34] <kinection> owen1: if you are connecting from LAN -> LAN, all you need is the internal IP
[02:34] <tofaffy> owen1, if you want your internal, use ifconfig
[02:34] <owen1> kinection: wireless, not lan
[02:35] <WGGMk> Tmi: oh sorry lol.. gets kinda confusing, lots of people
[02:35] <tas> when it boots it gets to DR-DOS A:\
[02:35] <kinection> owen1: wireless will still be inside of your local area network
[02:35] <tas> and it stops
[02:35] <kinection> owen1: unless you have split it off
[02:35] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: Hmmm.. then do this: iwlist ath0 scanning
[02:35] <tofaffy> Does anyone know where i can get/replace the splash gdm thingy?
[02:35] <sauvin> When you first turn the computer on, do you get a selection of operating systems to load?
[02:35] <kinection> owen1: i assume you haven't. it'd be the same, just get the internal IP through ifconfig
[02:35] <tas> no
[02:35] <kitche> tofaffy: gnome-look.org as some gdm themes
[02:35] <owen1> kinection: so i do owen1@192.168.0.101 (example)
[02:35] <kinection> owen1: yep
[02:35] <tas> it just started loading something copywrites stuff like that
[02:35] <owen1> kinection: ssh
[02:35] <WGGMk> Mikubuntu: unless your running amd64 you should just be able to download a .deb and use dpkg -i
[02:35] <owen1> kinection: ok
[02:35] <sauvin> Something is screwed. you should have a grub screen to interact with when you first boot up IF you installed ubuntu.
[02:36] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: has that shown you the WiFi ESSID ?
[02:36] <mikubuntu> wggmk: can u tell me how?
[02:36] <sauvin> tas, what drive did you install ubuntu to?
[02:36] <Gambrinus> owen1: try connecting locally first, then once you get it working you can go to the next step of connecting from outside of your LAN
[02:36] <tas> i havnt installed it
[02:36] <centaur5> running glxgears on my intel graphics blacks out my screen and I have to use alt+f4 to close it but it is running at 990 fps. How can I fix the black screen?
[02:36] <tas> its not booting up thats the thing
[02:36] <nickyb> Hi- I'm pretty new to ubuntu/debian.  My VPS runs dapper, and I'd like to ONLY update ruby (from 1.8.4 to the newest) what can I add to my apt/sources.list that'll include the latest ruby (and any possible dependencies)?
[02:36] <mikubuntu> i am on a dell d600 laptop
[02:36] <sauvin> Mmkay, the ubuntu you have, is it on CD?
[02:36] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I just typed "iwlist scan"
[02:36] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: go to skype.com and look for a debian package for your distro (i386)
[02:36] <tas> ya
[02:36] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it showed my ESSID:"blob"
[02:36] <sauvin> Does your computer support booting from a CD?
[02:36] <tas> ya
[02:36] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: that's what I named it
[02:36] <tas> its enabled
[02:37] <mikubuntu> then how do i install it?
[02:37] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: once its done downloading, open up a terminal and type " dpkg -i <name of package>.deb
[02:37] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: good, then you use that with the iwconfig command:
[02:37] <sauvin> OK, and does it try to boot from the CD before booting the hard drive?
[02:37] <mikubuntu> ok i cvopy and paste that
[02:37] <tas> i put the cd in and it starts to boot im guesing
[02:37] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: sudo iwconfig ath0 essid blob
[02:37] <tas> ya its on cd-drive
[02:37] <owen1> kinection: done! thanks. what about connecting from office to my home?
[02:37] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: acctually you should prollly cd /path/to/debian/pacakage first
[02:37] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: unrecognize wireless request "blob"
[02:37] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: that's what it say
[02:38] <sauvin> If it's booting the CD before booting the hard drive, and you're still getting a DRDOS command prompt, are you certain the CD in the CDROM drive is, in fact, an Ubuntu install or live CD?
[02:38] <cwgannon> ahoy, i'm building a computer that will be used primarily with ubuntu -- where can i check to verify the HW will be compatible?  (thank you.)
[02:38] <mikubuntu> wggmk: don't know how...
[02:38] <kinection> owen1: in that case, you would do the same exact thing except you need to have the ip set to that of your external IP
[02:38] <tas> ya
[02:38] <tas> the desktop thingy
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: oops!
[02:38] <kinection> owen1: you can get that by going to whatismyip.com or your router
[02:38] <kitche> !hardware | cwgannon
[02:38] <ubotu> cwgannon: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:38] <WGGMk> mikubunt: well find out where it downloads and then in a terminal "cd /home/USER/..."
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: sudo iwconfig ath0 essid "blob" (you need the quote marks!)
[02:38] <kinection> owen1: and make sure your router forwards 22 to the right computer
[02:38] <cwgannon> kitche: thank you
[02:38] <kitche> cwgannon: most everything is compatible pretty much
[02:38] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: USER being your ubuntu user name and whever it was downloaded to
[02:39] <tas> do u have aim/xfire/msn?
[02:39] <Gambrinus> owen1: ...you need to get your ports configured correctly too
[02:39] <sauvin> I have aim, yea.
[02:39] <owen1> kinection: it's a problem since it alwasy changing by my isp...
[02:39] <tas> aim me xx tas 1337 xx
[02:39] <WGGMk> anyone using amd64 fesity 7.04 with wine 0.9.41 running help is needed
[02:39] <owen1> Gambrinus: i set it to forward port 22 on my d-link
[02:39] <owen1> Gambrinus: the problem is my ip. it's up to the ISP...
[02:40] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I just typed it and it gives me back nothing, what do I do now?
[02:40] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: I guess it accepted it
[02:40] <Invisionfree> How can I get THE VERY LATEST JAVA?
[02:40] <kinection> owen1: well.. look at dyndns.org you can get dyanmicdns, and then all you need to do is set one of your machines to update that once in awhile and then all you need to do is connect like owen1@owen1.dyndns.org instead of using an IP
[02:40] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: check if its worked... try both "iwconfig" and "ifconfig | more"
[02:40] <tas> or whats ur aim i'll aim u
[02:40] <Sache007> what would be better? me buying a dvd burner to backup winxp to dualboot w/ ubuntu or buy seperate Hdd?
[02:41] <owen1> kinection: got it, i'll check it out.10x.
[02:41] <IntuitiveNipple> Invisionfree: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[02:41] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: ESSID is filled in iwconfig but the Nickname part is still just "Nickname:""
[02:41] <sauvin> Tas, I don't think I'm going to be much more helpful in private than in here. Here, at least, if I have my head up my butt, somebody will call me on it. They'll keep me honest.
[02:41] <kinection> owen1: what does 10x mean?
[02:41] <knoppix> Ciao
[02:41] <owen1> kinection: thanks
[02:41] <WGGMk> Sache007: neither, you should be able to install ubuntu side by side with winxp not being touched
[02:41] <kinection> owen1: oh, np
[02:41] <tas> oh
[02:41] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: nickname doesn't matter, ESSID is good... have you got an IP address reported by "iconfig | more" ?
[02:41] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: just to let you know I did put a password on my router using wpa2
[02:42] <tas> well idono y it doesnt want to boot
[02:42] <Gambrinus> owen1: port 22 gets a lot of scans and hack attempts from zombie machines.
[02:42] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: it *should* be handled by NetworkManager... I hope!
[02:42] <mikubuntu> WGGMk: i am opening skype for ubuntu, should i 'open' or 'save to disk'[?
[02:42] <sauvin> tas, I still think you have a boot order problem. what kind of CD is it you have?
[02:42] <kitche> owen1: if you need you can grab a ssh blacklist script it works wonders
[02:42] <knoppix> C'e' qualche italiano?
[02:42] <kinection> Gambrinus: you think he should forward something like port 10022 to 22?
[02:42] <owen1> Gambrinus: so what should i do?
[02:42] <owen1> kitche: i lost u...
[02:42] <Sache007> do i have to resize curren patition?
[02:42] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: save to disk and see where it saves
[02:43] <tas> what do u mean? just a normal cd. used nero to make it into a boot cd with the files i downloaded
[02:43] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: are you using amd64 ubuntu?
[02:43] <kinection> owen1: yea, to secure your ssh, you may want to have a whitelist. if you know that all you will do is connect from office
[02:43] <kitche> owen1: it bans scanners and such after so many attempts
[02:43] <sauvin> knoppix, je ne parle aucun italien, moi. Ca vaut peut-etre le coup de chercher le canal #ubuntu-it?
[02:43] <Gambrinus> owen1: just set your router to forword whatever (ex 40253) to port 22 on your computer you want to connect to.  it's all in the router admin side
[02:43] <suprchris> I am trying to install ubuntu on my desktop but I can't see the buttons.  It's stuck in 640x480
[02:43] <mikubuntu> ok, will save to disk
[02:44] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: ok
[02:44] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it still spit out no ip adress, only the MAC address for some reason
[02:44] <kinection> owen1: you can also make the router forward some random port to port 22, then when you use ssh use -p [port num] 
[02:44] <NETWizz> Question
[02:44] <Sache007> do i have to resize curren patition?
[02:44] <owen1> kinection: ok
[02:44] <unagi_> can anyone help me with my wvdial.....it disconnects after 2 minutes saying The PPP daemon has died: Lack of LCP echo responses (exit code = 15)
[02:44] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: maybe not MAC address, some other address thing..
[02:44] <Sache007> i just want safe backup
[02:44] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: ok... I'd expect the MAC, its wired into the adapter... the IP is the problem. Lets try restarting NetworkManager
[02:45] <WGGMk> Sache007: Yes and No. depends.. when you installed windows did you create a partition or did you install to the entire disk
[02:45] <owen1> how do i grab ssh blacklist script?
[02:45] <Invisionfree> I need java 6U2...HOW CAN I GET
[02:45] <Gambrinus> owen1: dont' worry about blacklisting
[02:45] <tas> so any idea whats up?
[02:45] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart ?
[02:45] <suprchris> How do i change the resolution on a live cd?
[02:45] <WGGMk> Sache007: if you created a specific partition then you should NOT have to resize it (provided you have enough free space to install ubuntu)
[02:45] <mikubuntu> WGGMk: went to 'downloads' box, choices are to 'open' or 'remove'
[02:45] <freemind> it has been said that sex is updatedb; locate; talk; date; cd; strip; look; touch; finger; unzip; uptime; gawk; head; apt-get install condom; mount; fsck; gasp; more; yes; yes; yes; more; umount; apt-get remove --purge condom; make clean; sleep
[02:45] <Sache007> entire
[02:45] <owen1> Gambrinus: ok
[02:45] <bobbob1016> suprchris, I don't think you can
[02:46] <kirk4linux> quit
[02:46] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: I can tell you've done this before :D
[02:46] <WGGMk> Sache007: if it used the entire disk.. then you'll have to shrink it (which you should do with inside windows)
[02:46] <suprchris> ok how do i install it through the cli
[02:46] <Invisionfree> I need java 6U2...HOW CAN I GET
[02:46] <Sache007> ok thanx
[02:46] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: except thats not the way to restart NetworkManager :)
[02:46] <kitche> !caps | Invisionfree from their website
[02:46] <ubotu> Invisionfree from their website: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:46] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: open a terminal and type : "cd ~/Desktop/Downloads" then type "ls -al" to see if its there
[02:46] <g2g591> my computer decided to freeze at the spinning disc right before the login screen. I had it working before
[02:47] <WGGMk> Sache007: very welcome
[02:47] <HOT> i am thinking of picking up one of them new quad cores from intel, anyone know how well ubuntu handles SMP? does it just work or do applications need to be compiled to take advantage?
[02:47] <Sayers> is this alright to say when selling my computers : Operating System : Ubuntu is free and comes pre-installed on your Typhoon for free as well.  ?
[02:47] <Invisionfree> I need java 6U2...HOW CAN I GET...Don't give me the !caps crap.
[02:47] <Gambrinus> owen1: ill give example of how i do this.  "ssh gambrinus@routeripnumber -p 31234"
[02:47] <ubuntu12> hi
[02:47] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: yeah, I just tried? lol
[02:47] <NETWizz> http://fallbrookpcusersgroup.org/html/club_activities.html
[02:47] <kitche> Invisionfree: from their website for the last time
[02:47] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: doesn't work
[02:47] <tas> so can u help me?
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: do sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart
[02:47] <ubuntu12> can i pass a archive to a disket from the terminal?
[02:47] <kitche> Invisionfree: and quit using caps
[02:47] <Sayers> Invisionfree, Demanding help doesnt work
[02:47] <NETWizz> Each time I go to my local pc users group, they always wonder why I don't want any of the free software
[02:47] <NETWizz> It is always something silly like Zone Alarm
[02:47] <suprchris> bobbob, how do I install through the CLI
[02:48] <Invisionfree> kitche: I have. How do I use it in java -jar FILE, and kitche, stop acting like an op. You aren't on.
[02:48] <ShackJack> Quick question - I'm twiddling with my /etc/default/acpi-support file... TO make changes take effect will a dbus restart suffice, or do I drop to runlevel 1 or perhaps another command?
[02:48] <Gambrinus> owen1: the -p is the port number I have setup in router admin. so 31234 will point to computer 192.168.1.143 port 22 in local lan
[02:48] <bobbob1016> suprchris, you could get the ubuntu-alternate CD
[02:48] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: ok, just restarted
[02:48] <DM|> Anyone have any links where i can read up on JACK, and how to use it
[02:48] <g2g591> my compter keeps freezing right before the login screen (at the spinning disc)
[02:48] <kitche> Invisionfree: well your ignored now good luck at finding help
[02:48] <kitche> !patience | Invisionfree
[02:48] <ubotu> Invisionfree: 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
[02:48] <suprchris> yeah,  It's just so frustrating when things don't work like you think they should
[02:48] <owen1> Gambrinus: five me 1 minute, i'll try it as well. btw, how do i close the ssh connection from the client?
[02:49] <nicholas76> Earlier I asked about dual-booting Ubuntu with Vista and if GRUB would automatically detect vista. It worked great! Thanks for the help earlier!
[02:49] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: everything is back to the way it is with ath0, the same as the others.. well similar
[02:49] <Gambrinus> owen1: just type "exit"
[02:49] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: no ip though
[02:49] <owen1> Gambrinus: o
[02:49] <owen1> Gambrinus: so when i exit the shell it close it as well/
[02:49] <tas> need help. having a problem installing ubuntu. after it boots up it gets stuck on [DR-DOS]  A:\>
[02:49] <rbd> hi guys, I manually make entries in /var/run (e.g. mkdir /var/run/myapp) for my app's files, and periodically it seems some process is removing that directory. any ideas what is doing this and how I can tell it not to remove what I made?
[02:50] <NETWizz> http://fallbrookpcusersgroup.org/html/meeting_place.html
[02:50] <bobbob1016> suprchris, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download download it, and check the box towards the bottom, that says "Check here if you need the alternate CD..."
[02:50] <g2g591> my comptuter keeps freezing right before the login screen appears
[02:50] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: try "sudo ifconfig ath0 down" then "sudo ifconfig ath0 up"
[02:50] <suprchris> are there certain things i need to type in when the interface is up
[02:50] <NETWizz> doit
[02:50] <NETWizz> sudo ifconfig ath0 down && sudo ifconfig at0 up
[02:50] <mikubuntu> WGGMk: this is output: mikubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cd ~/Desktop/Downloads
[02:50] <mikubuntu> bash: cd: /home/mikubuntu/Desktop/Downloads: No such file or directory
[02:50] <mikubuntu> mikubuntu@ubuntu:~$
[02:50] <NETWizz> Can do it all on one line :)
[02:50] <sauvin> tas, what result do you get when you boot your computer without the CD in the drive?
[02:51] <Gambrinus> owen1: when i close my terminal without using "exit" it logs me out automatically on my host, but it may be different for you
[02:51] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: it gives me that MAC address again in ifconfig and in iwconfig is blank on EESID
[02:51] <owen1> Gambrinus: ok
[02:51] <HOT> i am thinking of picking up one of them new quad cores from intel, anyone know how well ubuntu handles SMP? does it just work or do applications need to be compiled to take advantage?
[02:51] <bobbob1016> suprchris, what do you mean?  you need to type in the username and password, in the installer either way
[02:51] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: where is your download folder?
[02:51] <tas> nothing it just goes to windows
[02:51] <suprchris> ok
[02:51] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: is it possible to enter in the router password within terminal so it can access it?
[02:51] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: if that doesn't give you an IP address, try this: "sudo /etc/init.d/wpa-ifupdown restart"
[02:52] <kitche> HOT: just works but no software is really made for x86_64 yet
[02:52] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: it should be saved by wpa_supplicant, but it is possible, yes
[02:52] <mikubuntu> WGGMk:  i have it up on my desktop now ...
[02:52] <younghacker> how do i configure evolution to send outgoing mail with hotmail only my incoming is working,
[02:52] <HOT> kitche: ok thanks
[02:52] <sauvin> You're trying to tell me you have an Ubuntu install CD or liveCD that dumps you to a DRDOS command prompt. I'm having trouble believing this, and think it more likely that CD isn't what you say it is.
[02:52] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: ok "cd ~/Desktop" then "ls -al" in terminal
[02:53] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: then "dpkg -i <full name of pacakage>" (without the <>)
[02:53] <kitche> HOT: so you can use i386 on it with the 4 cores if you wish you will have better luck in getting software to work on it then amd64
[02:53] <tas> i got the destktop ubunta extrated it and made it into a boot cd
[02:53] <pathogen> .net
[02:53] <Invisionfree> I have JRE 6U2. How do I use it in java -jar FILE
[02:53] <mikubuntu> WGGMk:  all strung together, or in two parts?
[02:53] <m1r> tas, your cd aint bootable it seems
[02:53] <sauvin> Where did you get this ubuntu desktop?
[02:54] <owen1> Gambrinus: i understand what u say but don't know how to configure my router...maybe like this 192.168.0.101:22 ?
[02:54] <tas> the website
[02:54] <nicholas76> Hi. I just got Ubuntu installed. I love it! I do have a question. In the Screen Resolution changer, I only have 800x600, something else, and 1024x768. I need 1280x1024 resolution. How can I get that?
[02:54] <sauvin> mlr, if the only other OS he has is Windows, why is he getting dumped to DRDOS?
[02:54] <suprchris> Is there a way to tell if it's the alternate cd?
[02:54] <ShackJack> nicholas76: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf -- and add it - you'll see where ;)
[02:54] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: still the same thing
[02:54] <Gambrinus> you can usually config router via your browser.  http://192.168.1.1
[02:54] <g2g591> for some unknown reason my computer freezes right before the login screen, at the spinning disk. I am able to press the physical shutdown button and it displays some stuff (it says the hp imaging and printing whatever failed, then displays the steps of shutting down)
[02:54] <m1r> tas, did u extract CD or burned ISO image ?
[02:54] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: after that command you told me to do
[02:54] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: seperate like this "cd ~/Desktop" hit enter ||| "ls -al" hit enter ||| dpkg -i <name of pacakge you downloaded>"
[02:54] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: bugger! I'm about out of ideas
[02:54] <Gambrinus> owen1: which router do you have?
[02:54] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: and of course hit enter
[02:54] <tas> extract and than bruned the files
[02:54] <nicholas76> ShackJack: In a terminal?
[02:54] <owen1> Gambrinus: i am inside my router.
[02:55] <Nubbie> hi guys, i'm having a little tiny issue with evolution... It's only pulling down new email from my gmail account, but i want it to download everything that's in my inbox on the server. It used to work this way before, but since reinstalling feisty I can't figure out how to make that work again. any suggestions?
[02:55] <m1r> tas, burn ISO
[02:55] <Gambrinus> owen1: like a genie?
[02:55] <ShackJack> nicholas76: Yeah  sudo nano  or you can gksudo gedit :)
[02:55] <m1r> dont extract it
[02:55] <tas> so not the files?
[02:55] <tas> oh ok
[02:55] <owen1> Gambrinus: how do i configure it to go to random port.
[02:55] <m1r> burn ISO
[02:55] <john`> IntuitiveNipple: do you know the command to give the wireless the password?
[02:55] <owen1> Gambrinus: d-link 514
[02:55] <younghacker> Nubbie: I'm also having the same issue today
[02:55] <tas> i'll do it right now
[02:55] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: ls -al will list whatever is on your desktop, so you can copy the file name exactly within terminal
[02:55] <Gambrinus> owen1: you're already in the admin page?
[02:55] <ShackJack> nicholas76: There's also a dpkg reconfigure xorg-something something I can't remember..
[02:55] <Nubbie> younghacker: its annoying isn't it.
[02:55] <owen1> Gambrinus: yes
[02:55] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: you have to configure a control file it is read from
[02:55] <ShackJack> Quick question - I'm twiddling with my /etc/default/acpi-support file... TO make changes take effect will a dbus restart suffice, or do I drop to runlevel 1 or perhaps another command?
[02:55] <tas> the whole file right? not the indevidual files
[02:56] <sauvin> mlr, what's this about a DRDOS command prompt, though? I mean, Ubuntu hasn't a damn thing to do with DRDOS.
[02:56] <owen1> Gambrinus: how do i set my port to go to random port
[02:56] <m1r> tas, u in windows ?
[02:56] <IntuitiveNipple> john`: take a look at this page: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Wpa_supplicant
[02:56] <younghacker> Nubbie: yes, I also can only send Email , i am not receiving anything
[02:56] <tas> i will be in a sec
[02:56] <scoobydoo28139> --backup
[02:56] <owen1> i tried this : 192.168.0.105:22
[02:56] <john`> if that the case, then I guess I have to hook up the regular LAN
[02:56] <LDZ420> !dbus
[02:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dbus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:56] <m1r> tas, use isoburner or nero
[02:56] <WGGMk> anyone able to get WINE 0.9.41 to run on Fesity 7.04 amd64 WITHOUT segmentation fault (core dumped)????
[02:56] <tas> i have nero
[02:56] <Gambrinus> owen1: you just need to choose a "random" port.  it won't randomize a port.
[02:56] <Nubbie> younghacker: you have gmail? you must have set it up improperly then.
[02:56] <m1r> then probably u need just doubleclick on ubuntu image
[02:56] <m1r> the ISO file
[02:56] <Gambrinus> owen1: find the "gaming" or "port forwarding" section.
[02:57] <suprchris> you guys, total noob question but why do you guys use gksudo instead of plain sudo?
[02:57] <sauvin> Yea, use Nero. That critter burns everything right the FIRST time.
[02:57] <owen1> Gambrinus: i did. but how do i tell this port to go to 22?
[02:57] <nicholas76> Can you tell me the command again?
[02:57] <kayzu> Question: I installed Ubuntu and now Norton PartitionMagic 8 says "Norton PartitionMagic has detected an error 116 on the partition starting at sector 25174862 on Disk 2." How can I fix that?
[02:57] <kayzu> more info here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=506655

[03:04] <freemind> maddler, yes
[03:04] <Invisionfree> How do I use unrar-free?
[03:04] <freemind> madman91, yes

[03:04] <WGGMk> anyone able to get WINE 0.9.41 to run on Fesity 7.04 amd64 WITHOUT segmentation fault (core dumped)????
[03:04] <LouisvilleLIP> I'm not sure if that will be the case for me, it took me several weeks to make it to this point.  I have a demon laptop
[03:04] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: it's the binary nvidia driver for the newer cards which the 8xxxx is
[03:04] <freemind> WGGMk, try apt-get install linux32 ia32-libs
[03:05] <owen1> Gambrinus: connection refused
[03:05] <WGGMk> have em
[03:05] <sauvin> YMMV: ubuntu selected the max resolution available for my laptop from the get-go.
[03:05] <Nubbie> suprchris: because they need a default that works for most people most of the time.
[03:05] <freemind> WGGMk, try starting with "linux32 wine"
[03:05] <Zambezi> freemind, No, just died. I remote it. It's basic installation with rtorrent and a non fully installation of VMWare. But I had the same setup with Dapper and also experienced the same problem.
[03:05] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: what suposatory do  i find it in?
[03:05] <flux_> f
[03:05] <g2g591> it says command not found
[03:05] <owen1> Gambrinus: i put 22 as private port..
[03:05] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: should be in multiverse I believe
[03:05] <WGGMk> freemind: segmentation fault (core dump)
[03:05] <freemind> Zambezi, try with boot parameters: noapic noscsi
[03:05] <scoobydoo28139> oops* reposatory lol
[03:05] <tas> it did the same
[03:05] <sauvin> We're loading "soft" ware from "suppositories" now?
[03:05] <HOT> scoobydoo28139: you just made me snort coffee on my screen, well done
[03:05] <suprchris> Does it also have something to do with proprietary drivers and companies not providing drivers for their hardware in a linux environment?
[03:06] <owen1> Gambrinus: and 5 digits number as public
[03:06] <tas> it stuck at dr-dos A:\ again
[03:06] <scoobydoo28139> lol
[03:06] <HOT> suprchris: in a nutshell yes
[03:06] <LouisvilleLIP> When I try to login to Ubuntu, my screen blinks a few times then kicks me back to login screen.  I can actually login 1 out of every 20 attempts.  Can anyone help?
[03:06] <scoobydoo28139> sorry
[03:06] <Gambrinus> owen1: firewall problem
[03:06] <freemind> WGGMk, try strace for more info
[03:06] <sauvin> Louisville, I had the same thing happen. I wound up re-installing because it took less time to re-install than to figure out.
[03:06] <owen1> Gambrinus: but it worked with port 22 as public
[03:06] <Zambezi> freemind, I don't have a monitor to it.
[03:06] <g2g591> m1, sudo dpkg.reconfigure xserver-xorg says command not found
[03:06] <kayzu> when I boot linux it says something about LBA and CHS values, so does PartitionMagic, does anyone know what this is ?
[03:06] <LouisvilleLIP> sauvin: I'm not sure if that will be the case for me, it took me several weeks to make it to this point.  I have a demon laptop
[03:06] <freemind> Zambezi, thats bad. you need to get one(or KVM console)
[03:06] <suprchris> Well, sometimes i need to state the obvious to understand it.
[03:06] <owen1> Gambrinus: should i open a port on my router?
[03:06] <owen1> Gambrinus: the public one?
[03:06] <WGGMk> freemind: ok, im not sure how to work with this output
[03:07] <sauvin> I take it "demon" isn't a brand name :\
[03:07] <freemind> Zambezi, serial-console is also possible
[03:07] <madman91> can i move everything from my current / to a new one? (with a live cd.. of course)??
[03:07] <g2g591> m1r your solution, sudo dpkg.reconfigure xserver-xorg says command not found
[03:07] <m1r> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:07] <tas>  any idea y it keeps stopping there?
[03:07] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: do you have the apt line handy?
[03:07] <freemind> WGGMk, look for files he is accessing wrong
[03:07] <freemind> or missing
[03:07] <HOT> kayzu: logical block address , its how a hard drive understands itself before the filesystem is "laid" over the top
[03:07] <LouisvilleLIP> I've read that my laptop is notorious for being a turd.  So far, it seems to be true
[03:07] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: if your on feisty you can open the restricted driver manager
[03:07] <m1r> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:07] <WGGMk> freemind: all i get is a bunch of <... rt_sigreturn resumed> )            = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)

[03:11] <tas> no
[03:11] <kayzu> HOT, do you know what causes those errors? I created the partitions with Ubuntu, maybe it's because GRUB installed to the MBR of the wrong HDD?
[03:11] <m1r> or does it go directly to drdos ?
[03:11] <tas> it goes to drdos
[03:12] <WGGMk> freemind: im using 0.9.41 from .deb pacakage and ive trid from source
[03:12] <LouisvilleLIP> When I try to login to Ubuntu, my screen blinks a few times then kicks me back to login screen.  Can anyone help?
[03:12] <m1r> then i guess u dont have bootable cd :/
[03:12] <kayzu> the partitions do show up in windows partition manager and i can access all of them

[03:12] <john1> when I try to log into ubuntu it said "your preferred session type Run Xclient script is not installed on this computer"  How do I install it?
[03:12] <owen1> Gambrinus: ok
[03:12] <Nubbie> LouisvilleLIP: try reconfiguring x.
[03:13] <Invisionfree> How can I run a .jar file?
[03:13] <Nubbie> LouisvilleLIP: oh wait your gdm wouldn't start at all. sorry.
[03:13] <juano__> where can i find the program launchers, i want to change 'xmms' to 'alltray xmms'
[03:13] <john1> I'm also missing gnome from the session chooser
[03:13] <m1r> tas if it showing drdos, that is on HDD , so i guess cd dont boot
[03:13] <Nubbie> LouisvilleLIP: is it spitting out an error about permissions?
[03:13] <LouisvilleLIP> Nubbie: it will start, about 1 out of 20 times
[03:13] <m1r> cd not bootable or cdrom broke
[03:13] <sdouble> kitche: All I see is the demo.  You know if the demo is the same as the full version, just needs a key?
[03:13] <tas> when i burned it i set it to bootable
[03:13] <owen1> Gambrinus: maybe i should choose both (tcp and udp
[03:13] <a5276> Hai, I need help. Is it better doing it in the pussy, or in the ass?
[03:13] <m1r> there u go
[03:13] <a5276> Hai, I need help. Is it better doing it in the pussy, or in the ass?
[03:13] <Invisionfree> How can I run a .jar file?

[03:13] <m1r> tas , do u know how to burn iso image =?
[03:14] <HOT> kayzu: there are many reasons why it could have happened, i wouldnt get too hooked up on it, FAT's of all kids lose track of physical segments all the time, just let PM do its job AS LONG AS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH THE FACT YOU MIGHT LOSE DATA.
[03:14] <Zambezi> freemind, It's installed, but it's not found in mem then tab.
[03:14] <kitche> sdouble: well you can do a search on google for the linux installer
[03:14] <Gambrinus> owen1: it's hard for me to tell you how to do it because your router is different.  that page should be easier to follow.  i believe ssh is only tcp, but try both anyway.
[03:14] <eboyjr> a5276: What the heck!?!?
[03:14] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: you on the cli or gui
[03:14] <tas> i might be burning it the wrong way
[03:14] <Nubbie> m1r: right click it > burn to disc
[03:14] <freemind> WGGMk, Any version of Wine after 2005/02/09 08:06:32 should not segfault with

[03:14] <a5276> Pussy, or ass?
[03:14] <m1r> yes tas
[03:14] <Nubbie> m1r: or if you want more options, install gnome-baker
[03:14] <Gambrinus> owen1: d-link also has a "firewall" section that might be blocking your connection.
[03:14] <scoobydoo28139> installed off ubuntu disk
[03:14] <HOT> ssh is TCP only

[03:19] <NoobSauce> hey, does anyone know how to install screenlets for beryl? I've been looking for like 30 minutes and although I can find plenty of screenshots of people who have done it, I can't find an install guide...
[03:19] <sdouble> kitche: silly me.  it seems the linux installer is on the same disc
[03:19] <Gambrinus> owen1: i've read some people have experienced problems port forwarding with your router model.  you can just use port 22 since it worked before, but use a strong password.  or you can change the port number in ssh config.
[03:19] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: it's gksu gedit /etc/apt/source.list by the way forgot gedit
[03:19] <pinstp> applications - system tools - gnome apt then look for wine in the not installed folder and find wine
[03:19] <Nubbie> sdouble: it's the year 2007, it makes sense doesn't it?
[03:20] <kayzu> okay HOT, thanks, I'll do an image of my stuff and come back in a few minutes if the partitionmagic fix worked :p

[03:20] <Nubbie> pinstp: most people don't have gnome apt installed, tell them to use synaptic

[03:21] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[03:21] <Gambrinus> owen1: or you can use public/private keys.
[03:21] <HOT> NoobSauce: "ubuntu screenlets" :)
[03:21] <Zambezi> freemind, I'm running the test now. I might be my systemharddrive cause it's a relly old one.
[03:21] <WGGMk> freemind: hmm.. something wrong wit my irc then.. i have all except ia32-sun-java5-bin.. do i need that?
[03:21] <gbutler288> howdy.  What do I need to allow ubuntu systems to connect to shares on a Windows 2003 Server.
[03:21] <tas> burning on the cd right now
[03:21] <m1r> LouisvilleLIP sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg might help
[03:21] <freemind> gbutler288, samba-client
[03:21] <Falstius> I just got a compaq usb keyboard with a bunch of internet buttons .. but xev doesn't react when I push them (although the media buttons (vol, play, ffd, rwd, etc) work).  I tried changing the keyboard layout to compaq usb keyboard (18 key) and restarting X, no luck. Anyone know a way to enable these keys?
[03:21] <pike_> !samba | gbutler288
[03:21] <ubotu> gbutler288: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:21] <Nubbie> gbutler288: an ldap client.
[03:22] <tas> when its done i'll try to boot it again
[03:22] <m1r> gj tas
[03:22] <owen1> Gambrinus: after i'll get dyanmic dns from dyndns.org i suppose to put it in the router instead of the 192.168.0.105 ?
[03:22] <mikubuntu> WGGMk: thanks, think i got it gotta go for a test ride :)
[03:22] <NoobSauce> HOT: lol. I searched the ubuntu forums, and google with queries, but not ubuntu screenlets... I guess I missed the one that counted :P thanks
[03:22] <LouisvilleLIP> m1r: I did that, but nothing seemed to change
[03:22] <HOT> np
[03:22] <tas> but i did the same thing with the other cds xD lol
[03:22] <LouisvilleLIP> m1r: and it doesn't happen all of the time, maybe 19 out of 20 time
[03:22] <WGGMk> mikubuntu: very welcome sir
[03:22] <Gambrinus> owen1: i've never used dyndns.
[03:23] <owen1> Gambrinus: ok
[03:23] <gbutler288> so does the samba client run on the 2003 server or on the linux clients?
[03:23] <owen1> it's kinection...sorry
[03:23] <HOT> NoobSauce: btw screenlets and compiz-fusion make for an awesome gui
[03:23] <m1r> LouisvilleLIP sry, that i cant help :/
[03:23] <Falstius> owen1: what do you mean 'put it in the router instead of 192.168.0.105'?
[03:23] <Nubbie> gbutler288: samba is a program in linux to connect to microsoft networks.
[03:23] <misnix> .
[03:24] <m1r> it soundes like broken X LouisvilleLIP
[03:24] <Nubbie> to access fileshares, printers, etc.
[03:24] <kinection> owen1: no, you do not change where you forwrad your ports in your router
[03:24] <owen1> Falstius: if i want to ssh into my machine, i prefer to have a stable ip..
[03:24] <kitche> sdouble: but I wish the anthology had a linux installer so I could install UT, the files are in .cab format instead
[03:24] <kinection> owen1: your router should still forward ports to the same internal address
[03:24] <sdouble> pft, that's a bunch of crap
[03:24] <kinection> owen1: however, if your router has the ability to update dyndns, you may want to do that
[03:24] <sdouble> for a game with linux support, it should support it entirely
[03:25] <kinection> owen1: otherwise, you will need to set your computer (the one you want to connect to) to update dyndns
[03:25] <NoobSauce> HOT: I'm running beryl right now, trying to get screenlets up and running... I need a stock ticker + weather widget
[03:25] <Falstius> owen1: dyndns won't give you a stable ip.  It will give you a name you can assign to the IP given by your service provider.
[03:25] <gbutler288> so will this site help me if I want to begin with P2P share on an XP Pro client?  Like to share out a folder on a home network?
[03:25] <kinection> owen1: dyndns should have some scripts available for you to use
[03:25] <owen1> kinection, Falstius : ok
[03:26] <Falstius> owen1: you can configure most routers to tell dyndns its IP address so that the name assigned always points to your machine.
[03:26] <gbutler288> what are the requirements to run Beryl?  I tried a couple of times on this old box and it destroyed X
[03:26] <juano__> anyone know where i can find a window-specific settings under GNOME like there was on KDE ?
[03:26] <Flannel> owen1: and if your router doesn't support that, there's a client in the repos (universe I think) that'll do it too
[03:26] <owen1> Falstius: so after i get a name from dyndns i put it in my router
[03:26] <owen1> ?
[03:26] <tas> gg it worked. .... im such a newbie xD ty lol
[03:26] <m1r> owen1 ddclient do nice update
[03:27] <m1r> np tas
[03:27] <Falstius> owen1: after you get the name from dyndns, you configure your router or a script on your computer to tell dyndns your IP address.
[03:27] <owen1> Falstius: ok
[03:28] <owen1> how do i turn my machine into a webserver? do i use dyndns?
[03:28] <Flannel> owen1: You install apache2, and anything else you want.
[03:28] <owen1> i want to use it as development server.
[03:28] <Flannel> owen1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[03:28] <pawan> roboform for ubuntu
[03:29] <Flannel> owen1: that's a common applicataion stack, you might be interested in
[03:29] <m1r> !lamp > owen1
[03:29] <Nilton> already salio  PC-BSD 1.4
[03:29] <Nilton> WWW.PCBSD.ORG
[03:29] <Gambrinus> owen1: i use what Flannel recommends as a dev.
[03:29] <Nubbie> owen: its really easy. run sudo tasksel, select lamp
[03:29] <Gambrinus> owen1: works perfectly
[03:30] <Nubbie> tasksel is the easiest way.
[03:30] <pawan> any good form filling software for ubuntu
[03:30] <Falstius> owen1: you install the webserver on your computer, and then to access it from the outside world you configure your router or firewall to route port 80 (and maybe port 443) to it.  You can then give people your dnydns name and they can access your page.  Some service providers block port 80 though.  dnydns has a way around that (you run your server on a different port and they redirect traffic to that port)
[03:30] <Nubbie> pawan: openoffice database program
[03:30] <owen1> Gambrinus: Flannel : but i should use dyndns if i want to connect easily all the time, right?
[03:30] <pawan> how
[03:30] <scoobydoo28139> kitche:ok i think i got it poulled up
[03:30] <owen1> Falstius: cool.
[03:30] <astro76> pawan, http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/02/15/fireform-firefox-add-on-of-the-day/
[03:30] <pawan> i want to fill web pages in firefox
[03:31] <Nubbie> pawan: applications > office > openoffice.org database
[03:31] <Nubbie> pawan: well you didn't say that.
[03:31] <pinstp> later everyone thx for helping me
[03:32] <Flannel> owen1: dyndns will allow you to have a domain name sort of thing instead of just having to type in your ip.  Although, if you're using it for development, you'll be on a subnet anyway, most likel.  And that's sometimes moot.
[03:32] <Iamabowl> does anyone know of a music playing app like foobar2000 for windows? It's basically a giant playlist which plays everything and doesn't take up more than a meg or 2 of memory
[03:32] <scoobydoo28139> kitche
[03:32] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: yes?
[03:33] <Alan_2> Spanish, please.
[03:33] <Nubbie> Iamabowl: use audacity
[03:33] <Zambezi> Anyone got an idea how long memtest86 takes on 1 GB memory?
[03:33] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: ok i got something pulled up
[03:33] <Nubbie> Zambezi: could be an hour.
[03:33] <Toma-> Nubbie: foobar2000 is nothing like audacity
[03:33] <Alan_2> Espaol
[03:33] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: what sources.list?
[03:33] <scoobydoo28139> but i lost the link

[03:33] <owen1> Flannel: what is the meaning of being on a subnet? i just want to avoid changing the public ip  on my router every day.
[03:33] <pawan> astro76 how to download that software
[03:33] <scoobydoo28139> yes
[03:33] <Toma-> Iamabowl: banshee isnt too bad, bit chubby tho i think
[03:33] <Iamabowl> ya, audacity's more of an editing prog ;)
[03:34] <Iamabowl> i'll check it out, thanks toma
[03:34] <Nubbie> toma-: foobar2000 is a simple mp3 player isn't it?
[03:34] <astro76> pawan, just click Install Now... https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3193
[03:34] <m1r> owen1 check with your provider if u have static ip
[03:34] <Nubbie> i'd definitely recommend banshee.
[03:34] <Flannel> owen1: Yourpublic IP will change with or without your say.  But something like dyndns will allow you to have 'mysuperbox.dyndns.org' that always points to your IP
[03:34] <CompIsMyRx> I love banshee
[03:34] <CompIsMyRx> not exactly lightweight though
[03:34] <Toma-> Nubbie: yes. audacity, is not.
[03:34] <JohnsonsWhatever> SPANK!
[03:34] <Toma-> Iamabowl: XMMS is fairly lightweight too
[03:34] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: this link tells you the lines you need to get rid of the # infront of them http://pastebin.ca/630253
[03:34] <Gambrinus> owen1: you will not need to change the settings of your router everyday.  you will just need to know the ip address of the router when you wish to connect
[03:34] <CompIsMyRx> or Xmms' children, BMP and Audacious
[03:35] <Nubbie> i meant audacious.
[03:35] <scoobydoo28139> ok brb
[03:35] <Iamabowl> ah got it
[03:35] <Nubbie> lol.
[03:35] <owen1> Gambrinus: will the ip of my router stay the same?
[03:35] <JohnsonsWhatever> SPANK! Doit-doit-doit-doit! Let's get to it, spank. Wow, love the 90's song!
[03:35] <Gambrinus> owen1: that depends on your ISP or plan.
[03:35] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it?
[03:35] <Toma-> Does anyone know how to edit the Greeting message when tty's are spawned?
[03:35] <ahattar> anyone can help me with my wireless in my laptop, it is not working?
[03:36] <Zambezi> Nubbie, I'll wait an hour.
[03:36] <Nubbie> toma-: i believe there's a file in /etc you can edit... i just forget which one.
[03:36] <Gambrinus> owen1: mine is not static, but it only changes a few times a year so it is easy to know the ip address.
[03:36] <Toma-> ...yeah thx
[03:36] <c1318>  dcc send "startkeylogger" 0 0 0
[03:36] <kitche> owen1: the inside ip will stay the same for your router

[03:41] <Nubbie> i suggest everybody in this channel do a netcat spam on c1318.
[03:41] <owen1> Gambrinus: so before u leave home u need to make sure it doesn't change, right?
[03:41] <Gambrinus> owen1: i have a cable modem.  it is always on.
[03:41] <pi3> tas: are you trying to conserve windows?
[03:41] <CompIsMyRx> he left the channel already
[03:41] <FunnyLookinHat> Nubbie, Already am   ; )
[03:41] <Toma-> Nubbie: youll bet banned too
[03:42] <tas> ya i want to keep windows
[03:42] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: ok what do i do now?
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> Nubbie, lol
[03:42] <vas> hey where is the system log file
[03:42] <vas> syslog
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> vas, locate syslog
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> vas, in console I mean  : )
[03:42] <kitche>   scoobydoo28139 you didn't see any lines that had universe and multiverse in them or did you?
[03:42] <astro76> yeah I guess there's lag
[03:42] <astro76> owen1, dyndns is nice though, no reason to avoid it IMHO
[03:42] <pawan> can roboform be installed on ubuntu
[03:42] <Gambrinus> owen1: it hardly ever changes.  i don't even worry about it.
[03:42] <vas> funnylookinghat, yes where is it located?
[03:42] <pi3> tas: you first have to defragment from windows
[03:42] <owen1> astro76: ok
[03:42] <n2diy> vas /var/syslog
[03:42] <vas> funnylookinghat, IE: /etc/ whatever...
[03:42] <pi3> tas: I think that is a common problem
[03:42] <kitche> vas: /var/log/syslog
[03:43] <vas> n2diy thnx
[03:43] <lotec> how do i install ubuntu?  i got this file and i click on it and nothing happens
[03:43] <owen1> anyone develop Rails apps?
[03:43] <Hansel> lotec - an iso file?
[03:43] <n2diy> whoops, vas /var/log/syslog
[03:43] <FunnyLookinHat> vas, well, var/log/syslog
[03:43] <Flannel> pawan: probably not.  But I'm sure there are comperable programs for linux
[03:43] <Gambrinus> owen1: just figure out how dynamic your router ip is and decide whether or not you need dyndns
[03:43] <kitche> !install | lotec
[03:43] <ubotu> lotec: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[03:43] <scoobydoo28139> oh ya i seen universe and multi but they all had .us first
[03:43] <pawan> tell me any good one
[03:43] <owen1> Gambrinus: i will.
[03:43] <tas> so how do i keep windows and still install ubutu?
[03:43] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: that is fine did it have # in front of the url
[03:44] <owen1> ruby on rails anyone?
[03:44] <FunnyLookinHat> vas, Sorry, I was trying to help you be able to find files for yourself (it's faster than loading up IRC and asking)  : )
[03:44] <Nubbie> tas: defrag your windows partitions, then resize them while installing ubuntu.
[03:44] <Roger_The_Bum> how do I check if a package is in universe
[03:44] <pi3> tas: using different partitions
[03:44] <CompIsMyRx> tas: Gparted works great on NTFS partitions
[03:44] <tas> :/
[03:44] <Flannel> Roger_The_Bum: apt-cache policy [package] 
[03:44] <Nubbie> tas: it's easy as pie. you'll be able to use either windows or ubuntu whenever you feel like.
[03:44] <tas> that i means i have to reinstall windows is there another waY?
[03:44] <Nubbie> tas: no you don't need to touch windows
[03:45] <CompIsMyRx> tas: no it doesn't
[03:45] <lotec> i have this file Ubuntu 3.1
[03:45] <scoobydoo28139> no i don't see any
[03:45] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: why do you ask?
[03:45] <tripppy> im running dual boot ubuntu 7.04 and winxp - just booted into windows deleted some files from my storage HDD, now in ubuntu i can't see the drive at all.
[03:45] <pi3> tas: no, you have to defragment the disk from windows, the defrag tool
[03:45] <Nubbie> tas: defrag the windows drive so you can resize it and create partitions for linux in the free space you create.
[03:45] <pawan> pasword filling software for ubuntu
[03:45] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: i want to start developing on my ubuntu.
[03:45] <aaron> What's the best way to use fake raid in ubuntu?
[03:45] <tas> umm how?
[03:45] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: just want some good practices.
[03:45] <Hansel> fake raid?
[03:45] <Hansel> hehe
[03:45] <aaron> Hansel, yes. fake raid. like a promise tx2200
[03:45] <Hansel> pull open Gimp and draw in a can and write Raid on it?
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> tas: shrink your windows partition, leave unallocated space and let ubuntu installer do the rest
[03:45] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: what server do u use?
[03:45] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: mongrel?
[03:46] <pi3> tas: I don't remember right now, but I think that right click on a drive, tools, defragment
[03:46] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: i've just messed with it a bit, not sure what I can help with
[03:46] <scoobydoo28139> what is the paste bin url?
[03:46] <astro76> tripppy, you might try to run dosfsck on it
[03:46] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: was the storage HDD an NTFS partition?
[03:46] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: webrick
[03:46] <tas> while in windows right?
[03:46] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: are u new to rails?
[03:46] <lotec> this is an offbrand raid? i just buy the raid brand for roaches
[03:46] <Music_Shuffle> !pastebin | scoobydoo28139
[03:46] <ubotu> scoobydoo28139: 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)
[03:46] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, yes. NTFS
[03:46] <Hansel> lol lotec
[03:46] <pi3> tas: right, then reboot the livecd
[03:46] <tripppy> astro76, as root?
[03:46] <tas> k
[03:46] <Gambrinus> tas: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing
[03:46] <caboose_1980> is terminal the same thing as konsole?
[03:47] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: yep, new to programming in general, other than some basic way back when and a c++ class when I started college.
[03:47] <n2diy> caboose_1980: yes
[03:47] <caboose_1980> oh good
[03:47] <lotec> i mean raid is not that expensive and it does the best job
[03:47] <astro76> tripppy, I believe so yes
[03:47] <freemind> good night mates
[03:47] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: what is your goal? create a website?
[03:47] <freemind> good night to all penguins^
[03:47] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: look here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30841/
[03:47] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it?
[03:47] <freemind> pawan, sleep well
[03:48] <freemind> n2diy, dmesg
[03:48] <pawan> whats that
[03:48] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: install ntfsprogs in ubuntu and run it on your storage drive ( the /dev/ listing of it). This will make windows run a checkdisk on it
[03:48] <tripppy> astro76, i dont want to stuff the drive up. can i break it with dosfsck?
[03:48] <freemind> hehe pawan ;)
[03:48] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: to become a proficient ruby programmer. no shortage of goals between here and there though.
[03:48] <n2diy> freemind: thanks, now go to bed :)
[03:48] <freemind> o/
[03:48] <edson> somebody use lm-sensors for module i2c_i801?
[03:48] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: I'm guessing that Windows didn't properly unmount the drive and left it in a state where it won't mount to anything (a common problem with external drives)
[03:49] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: i have just finished 'ruby for rails'. good start to learn both.
[03:49] <pi3> don't you see less activity on this channel than a couple of days before?
[03:49] <astro76> tripppy, try with the -n option first, it will not perform any changes
[03:49] <GamingX> Hey Guys, I download some files in Ubuntu and I have dual partition with NTFS file system, I wanted to copy these files in the NTFS partition so I can access them from windows.Any Ideas?
[03:49] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: the pickaxe?
[03:49] <shawn34> is there any other apps like avidemux out there that i could try out?
[03:49] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: ok file looks fine save it then update synaptic then install nvidia-glx-new though it
[03:49] <Nubbie> shawn34: pitivi
[03:49] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, its not a external drive - just a 60gig  partition as NTFS
[03:49] <pi3> GamingX, you can have a shared partition between ubuntu and windows
[03:49] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: no
[03:49] <edson> somebody use lm-sensors for module i2c_i801?
[03:50] <GamingX> like?
[03:50] <shawn34> Nubbie, pitivi is a movie maker, more like kino. I'm talking avidemux.
[03:50] <pi3> GamingX, the partition should be ntfs or fat32
[03:50] <W9ZEB-Lars> !ntfs-3g GamingX
[03:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-3g gamingx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:50] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: who publishes it?
[03:50] <W9ZEB-Lars> !ntfs-3g
[03:50] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> GamingX: what version of ubuntu.. Feisty?
[03:50] <GamingX> Yes Feisty
[03:50] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: manning
[03:50] <GamingX> I have NTFS partitions
[03:50] <scoobydoo28139> how do i update synaptic?
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g > GamingX
[03:51] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: what do u read?
[03:51] <tas> after defragging how do i change the size?
[03:51] <pi3> GamingX, you can write-read ntfs with ubuntu out of the box right?
[03:51] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: if u want i can share with you my learning insights. i email 2 friends when i learn something new.
[03:51] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: the pragmatic books for a start. just now getting into it.
[03:51] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: i can also email u if u'r interested.
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> tas: SInce you have working windows install.. do you have access to partition amagic
[03:52] <GamingX> I can read but I cannot write anything to it...
[03:52] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: reading it too.
[03:52] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: oh, I see. still, running ntfsfix on the partition is a good way to start
[03:52] <pi3> tas: do the same that you were doing before, create a ext3 partition for ubuntu and a linux-swap for the swap
[03:52] <awerner32> is there a plugin for xmms that gives you a library?
[03:52] <pyros_pyrotica_> owen1: thanks, maybe we ought to move to #ubuntu-programming
[03:52] <edson> somebody use lm-sensors for module i2c_i801(intel)?
[03:52] <Sayers> My friend gets this problem "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[03:53] <centaur5> running glxgears on my intel graphics blacks out my screen and I have to use alt+f4 to close it but it is running at 990 fps. How can I fix the black screen?
[03:53] <aricz> awerner32 : apt-cache search xmms-
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> GamingX: did you read the links we provided for ntfs-3g  enabling is easy
[03:53] <GamingX> Yes I am installing it...
[03:53] <scoobydoo28139> duh i know what that is what was i thinkin dee dee deee
[03:53] <owen1> pyros_pyrotica_: good idea
[03:54] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: you see the partition with "sudo fdisk -l" correct?
[03:54] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, yes       "/dev/sdb4          182836      310075    64128960    7  HPFS/NTFS"
[03:54] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: what can i do if my computer won't start after install?
[03:55] <MFen> can anyone recommend a good way to back up *a remote server* to *a local filesystem*
[03:55] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, i did a "sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb4"
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> scoobydoo28139:  are you setting up dual boot
[03:55] <bullgard4> What application program will read the file acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.diff.4 that File Roller found in ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20?
[03:55] <MFen> i know about sbackup. it only goes the other direction afaict
[03:55] <gmn_> Is there any GPS software are Ubuntu? I have a usb DeLORME GPS unit and wanted to get directions using my Ubuntu laptop.
[03:55] <Optikal__> Has anyone been able to get the DWL-G510 Rev. A to work with Ubuntu?
[03:56] <MFen> i want to back up my website to a local hard drive please. :)
[03:56] <gmn_> I have it pulled in but there is no light
[03:56] <PenguinistaKC> MFen -- Do you have shell access to your web server?
[03:57] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: i have root
[03:57] <scoobydoo28139> yes i have duel boot
[03:57] <PenguinistaKC> MFen -- man tar
[03:57] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: i need something a bit more sophisticated than that
[03:58] <shawn34> is there a channel to talk about things like video conversion and stuff like that?
[03:58] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, im going to reboot. the automounting script might work now....
[03:58] <hwdd56> join #help
[03:58] <talkin> need advice about pcmcia wifi adapter. Which work well with ubuntu
[03:58] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: run windows first
[03:58] <JRsup1> anyone worked with watchdog devices?
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> scoobydoo28139: You can boot windows cd and fixboot
[03:58] <PenguinistaKC> MFen What are your requirements?
[03:59] <CompIsMyRx> tripppy: ntfsfix tells windows to do a chkdsk on the drive to clean up any errors, which should fix the problem
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> talkin: I have a linksys with the broadcom chipset that works fine and easy to setup
[03:59] <tripppy> CompIsMyRx, ok. "crosses fingers"
[03:59] <scoobydoo28139> i don't have it yet, just partitioned space
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> scoobydoo28139: Windows is not installed yet.?
[04:00] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: glad you asked. :)  i want daily incrementals and weekly fulls, on a schedule.  deletions should also be tracked.
[04:00] <nostotu> good evening all
[04:00] <nixlover> hey
[04:00] <nixlover> i have a question
[04:00] <scoobydoo28139> rite i don't have it yet it was a bad disk and i sent it back
[04:01] <nixlover> when using a live cd can you still install other applications
[04:01] <nixlover> like
[04:01] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: actually i think i want "differentials" not "incrementals", but anyway
[04:01] <nixlover> i have a M$ box that is infested with virus's
[04:01] <nixlover> i want to use the ubuntu live cd to
[04:01] <nixlover> scan it with avira or avg
[04:01] <Hansel> nixlover - if you mount a remote filesystem you could install to it...
[04:01] <nixlover> so thats what i should do for my situation
[04:01] <FreeNet> hi people is it possible that i create a custom setup script and attach the the ubuntu server CD so that it can automatically install the default packages that i want? It will be useful if I am to create multiple fresh setup servers
[04:01] <nixlover> mount a remote file system
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !clamav
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about clamav - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:02] <noodles12> what is the command to find out what version wireless driver i have?
[04:02] <FreeNet> i see
[04:02] <JohnsonsWhatever> SPANK! Doit-doit-doit-doit! Let's get to it, spank. Wow,
[04:02] <Hansel> nixlover - sure... mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/Windows  <--- something to that effect should make your Windows drive "visible"
[04:02] <noodles12> i know lspci but it doesnt' tell me which one
[04:02] <Hansel> nixlover then install AVG and scan it...
[04:02] <nixlover> so...
[04:02] <PenguinistaKC> MFen One way to do that is with rsync, but there are some backup systems out there. AMANDA comes to mind at the moment
[04:02] <Hansel> nixlover - you should know that writing to NTFS partitions is "Experimental" and can result in corruption.
[04:02] <nixlover> hum... crap
[04:03] <Hansel> nixlover - your best bet is to whipe windows and just install Linux.  :)
[04:03] <CompIsMyRx> no it's not, ntfs-3g is stable
[04:03] <nixlover> so whats my best option..
[04:03] <nixlover> i cant
[04:03] <nixlover> its for a customer
[04:03] <nixlover> she needs the info on the disk
[04:03] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: i'll check that out. thanks
[04:03] <Jack_Sparrow> ntfs-3g is stable
[04:03] <Hansel> or mount the partition, copy files to an external drive (USB enclosure) and then whipe it and start fresh.
[04:03] <PenguinistaKC> MFen No problem
[04:03] <CompIsMyRx> nixlover:ntfs-3g is stable for read/write to NTFS
[04:03] <nixlover> Complsmyrx whats that
[04:03] <GamingX> Installing ntfs-3g and enabling write support wont format anything right?
[04:03] <JohnsonsWhatever> Play Games, how can I do it in Ubuntu? Like World of Warcraft? Age of Conan?
[04:03] <Mobster> i just fired up Ubuntu and would like to get my wireless working. if i can get it working then i will install can anybody help?
[04:04] <nostotu> !ntfs-3g
[04:04] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:04] <PenguinistaKC> MFen If you aren't afraid of a little scripting, a combination of tar and rsync will probably do the job for you with a little less memory overhead
[04:04] <nixlover> i need to scan it and fix virus's on that drive so i can boot into the windows
[04:04] <madman91> how do i setup a .. dns i guess you could say. for my computers behind the router?
[04:04] <Hansel> JohnsonsWhatever - wine or cedega
[04:04] <flaremage> hi
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: Boot feisty... save files to a usb and reinstall windows is how I do it..
[04:04] <Hansel> madman91 bind
[04:04] <CompIsMyRx> !ntfs-3g | nixlover
[04:04] <ubotu> nixlover: please see above
[04:04] <JohnsonsWhatever> Hansel: How will this effect performance?
[04:04] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: quick question. i see client and server. it stands to reason that one goes on the source of the files, and one goes on the destination. would you happen to know which is which?
[04:04] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: i'm definitely not afraid of a little shell scripting, but i'm opposed to maintaining the code myself. :)
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: You dont need ntfs-3g to read...
[04:04] <madman91> Hansel: is that a program?
[04:04] <CompIsMyRx> but he does need it to write
[04:05] <Hansel> bind is a DNS daemon for Linux. :)
[04:05] <BaD_CrC> pdnsd
[04:05] <madman91> Hansel: does mac have it?
[04:05] <BaD_CrC> use it
[04:05] <PenguinistaKC> MFen It has been awhile since I used AMANDA, but as I recall, the server is the centralized backup point (the place where the files will be archived) and the client is the original location of the files.
[04:05] <madman91> BaD_CrC: ? which is better
[04:05] <Hansel> madman91 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIND
[04:05] <Hansel> madman91 probably
[04:05] <BaD_CrC> i use pdnsd for my lan
[04:05] <flaremage> i've got a question about if anyone knows how to properly configure a at&t dsl modem within ubuntu 7.04 or linux in general. i have a friend who's having so many problems with windows and I need to know if there is any way to do this so he can switch to linux. i'm low vision and can't keep up here so pm me please.
[04:05] <BaD_CrC> works great
[04:06] <GamingX> Will any data be lost while making an NTFS partition writable?
[04:06] <PenguinistaKC> MFen So in your case, the web server is the client, your machine is the server
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> CompIsMyRx: If he is trying to fix the install he needs to write, it takes alot longer to untangle a dirty system as it does to pull the important data and reinstall windows
[04:06] <MFen> PenguinistaKC: sounds reasonable
[04:06] <shinynew> how do I make it so when ubuntu starts up all it gives me is a prompt?
[04:06] <madman91> Hansel: and thats for .. for each client?
[04:06] <shinynew> no login screen
[04:06] <Stormx2> GamingX: None.
[04:06] <dr_willis> shinynew,  disable the gdm and kdm services - if you have them both
[04:06] <Hansel> madman91 - no... its a nameserver that all the other clients can do lookups on
[04:06] <nixlover> i dont have a copy of xp
[04:06] <nixlover> so  i need to scan it
[04:06] <nixlover> and get rid of the virus's
[04:06] <shinynew> how do I disable them, do you mean remove them?
[04:06] <madman91> Hansel: so i need one computer to do this on?
[04:06] <BaD_CrC> plus it's not a big daemon. it's sole purpose is for small lans and to act as a caching dns server
[04:06] <Mobster> how can i get my broadcom 802.11b working?
[04:07] <shinynew> like where is the configuration for what services start up
[04:07] <bruenig> shinynew, just make sure the daemons don't run at boot
[04:07] <madman91> BaD_CrC: thats all i need
[04:07] <Hansel> madman91 - basically... then in the network configs for the others point to the nameserver on the network.  :)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !broadcom
[04:07] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:07] <nixlover> can i use that ntfs to install avg or avira
[04:07] <nixlover> and scan it like that
[04:07] <rustalot> in ls -l, the 5th field is the size in bytes? so -rw------- 1 harry henry 511 2007-07-22 22:01 konquerorhmsCmb.html would be 511 bytes?
[04:07] <BaD_CrC> couple that with squid and you have web heaven
[04:07] <dr_willis> shinynew,  not sure what gui tools there are - i manually delete them from the /etc/rc2.d diretory
[04:07] <bruenig> rustalot, ls -lh
[04:07] <Hansel> nixlover - depending on the infection/problem AVG might not be enough... though it is a good scanner that I highly recommend for Windows users.  :)
[04:07] <nixlover> so how can i use it
[04:07] <nixlover> to scan this pc
[04:07] <Stormx2> rustalot: Yes.
[04:08] <madman91> Hansel: gotcha
[04:08] <madman91> Hansel: thanks
[04:08] <Hansel> nixlover - for ANY customer you should whipe their stuff and get them fresh instead of "hopefully" fixing whatever went wrong in the case of virus/spyware infections
[04:08] <bruenig> dr_willis, don't think that is the best approach, don't they come with some rc.update program or something
[04:08] <nixlover> like i said im outa town and dont have xp with me
[04:08] <bruenig> there is some debian/ubuntu specific way to do it
[04:08] <dr_willis> bruenig,  proberly does.. but i am used to doing it the oldskool way
[04:08] <BaD_CrC> goto symantec.com or mcafee.com and use their web based scanner for windows
[04:08] <nixlover> ooo yeah
[04:08] <nixlover> can do that too
[04:08] <Stormx2> nixlover: Wait, someone is paying you to do this?
[04:08] <bruenig> on arch, you just remove it from the daemons array in rc.conf
[04:08] <nixlover> no
[04:08] <nixlover> its for a friend
[04:08] <Sayers> Hello how do I fix this http://rafb.net/p/tULYyL89.html
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/10/clamav-free-anti-virus-solution-for.html
[04:09] <Stormx2> BaD_CrC: ActiveX I'd imagine.
[04:09] <dr_willis> bruenig,  ubuntu uses SysV, and upstart. :) so it dont do that.
[04:09] <BaD_CrC> Stormx2: unfortunately
[04:09] <regfire> trend micro has a nice online scanner also
[04:09] <bruenig> dr_willis, right, sysv is crap though, but there is something, rc.update I think, I am not totally sure though
[04:09] <Hansel> housecall.antivirus.com
[04:09] <Hansel> or something like that?
[04:10] <shinynew> while in the rc2.d directory, can I just create a folder inside it and move things I do not want to start up into there, or does it run recursivly?
[04:10] <nostotu> so who is down with linux gaming?
[04:10] <echosystm> linux isnt for games
[04:10] <Hansel> me nostotu... well.. just 1 game (Continuum) which is actually a Windows game...
[04:10] <BaD_CrC> i'm down with OPP
[04:10] <preaction> shinynew, best to use update-rc.d
[04:10] <nostotu> right
[04:10] <dr_willis> bruenig,  so crappy its been used for years. :) but
[04:10] <nostotu> linux is for everything <3
[04:10] <Hansel> nostotu - I occasionally play RedAlert 2 as well.
[04:10] <bruenig> dr_willis, bsd > sysv
[04:10] <dr_willis> shinynew,  ya could.. or you can rename the file.
[04:10] <Stormx2> echosystm: Linux is usage-neutral.
[04:10] <CompIsMyRx> nixlover: you could also use F-prot if you love the command line :)
[04:11] <Hansel> echosystm Linux works just fine for games... ;)
[04:11] <nostotu> hansel - do you use wine or cedega?
[04:11] <dr_willis> bruenig,  prove it. :) its all a matter of taste.. then again theres a reason the ubuntu guys have Upstart also..
[04:11] <preaction> shinynew, there's also a tool called BUM (boot-up manager), i don't know where it is in the repos
[04:11] <nixlover> what is that
[04:11] <nixlover> f prot
[04:11] <Hansel> nostotu wine, patched and compiled by hand.  :P
[04:11] <nixlover> i just need to get it clean enough to boot up
[04:11] <dr_willis> !sysv
[04:11] <Hansel> Continuum had a special quirk which a patch could adress.
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sysv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <nostotu> hansel - that sounds.. difficult
[04:11] <nixlover> right now viri kill it when it boots
[04:11] <CompIsMyRx> nvm, clamwin is cli too
[04:11] <FFForever> is ubuntu better and more secure then open solaris?
[04:11] <shinynew> thanks all
[04:11] <bruenig> dr_willis, it is a matter of preference, sysv is needlessly complex as evidenced by the 7 directories of symlinks
[04:11] <scoobydoo28139> nvidia-glx-new is the newest one?
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: Does that windows install boot at all?
[04:11] <aricz> hoho hansel, you play continuum ? :)
[04:11] <BaD_CrC> i used f-prot av back in the days when i ran desqview and a renegade bbs
[04:11] <nixlover> yes
[04:11] <nixlover> i try to boot to safe but
[04:11] <aricz> Hansel , which zone?
[04:11] <nixlover> it freazes with all the viri
[04:11] <Stormx2> !best | FFForever
[04:11] <nostotu> hansel - this is day #1.5 of linux, went with ubuntu 7.04
[04:11] <ubotu> FFForever: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[04:11] <Hansel> FFForever depending on how you configure any operating system it can be more secure than any other operating system that is not configured as well...
[04:11] <BaD_CrC> it's oldschool, but it workd
[04:11] <arooni> how can i get the time that it takes a given gif to complete one 'cycle' of animation?
[04:12] <dr_willis> FFForever,  i imagine its 'better' - as for seure..  ubuntu is about locked down as it can get. without going UBER_Paranoid for security.
[04:12] <nixlover> i want to try and clean it and see if i can boot into safe mode
[04:12] <nixlover> and clean it up
[04:12] <cosmin> i have skype....i whant like someone to see me on the web camera....how do i do that?
[04:12] <kitche> bruenig: well sysv can have many setups but yeah the symlink way is bad :)
[04:12] <Hansel> aricz - yup.
[04:12] <PenguinistaKC> FFForever The short answer is no. Any operating system is only as secure as its administrator and users.
[04:12] <Hansel> aricz - primarily T3G...
[04:12] <nixlover> cosmin:  go to #skype
[04:12] <FFForever> PenguinistaKC, i am both :)
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: have you tried safe mode?
[04:12] <nixlover> thats what i just said.. it freazes in safe mode
[04:12] <nixlover> due to all the viri
[04:12] <aricz> Hansel : oh, know little about that zone.. chaos and trench here
[04:12] <nixlover> they start even in safemode
[04:12] <Hansel> aricz - I also play Extreme Games once in a while.  :)
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: Then try clamav in a livecd session
[04:12] <CompIsMyRx> FFForever: The only real differences from what I can tell are that solaris won't be using the GPL v3 license that is out, but instead will stick to GPL v2, which may or may not affect program options.
[04:13] <nixlover> whats clamav
[04:13] <Stormx2> nixlover: *viruses. Try the AVG software out.
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: I posted a link for you earlier
[04:13] <Hansel> aricz - I'm not too big a fan of SVS so I dont go to chaos much.  Trench is okay...
[04:13] <cosmin> skype is empty
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/10/clamav-free-anti-virus-solution-for.html
[04:13] <nixlover> but can i install it from the live linux cd
[04:13] <PenguinistaKC> FFForever If you know your OS and follow good practices, then you've got no worries. I worked with Solaris for years, and found that, like most Unices and Linux, it was pretty solid from the ground up. I did find, however, that Linux has much better hardware compatibility.
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: Yes
[04:13] <Stormx2> nixlover: Why not?
[04:13] <nixlover> how
[04:14] <nixlover> just save it to the ntfs drive?
[04:14] <aricz> Hansel : extreme games is fun sometimes yup:) if it's the fast-paced ctf ..
[04:14] <Stormx2> nixlover: Download it. Install it. There will be instructions on their website.
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: No you dont install or save it to the ntfs drive
[04:14] <cosmin> anyone
[04:14] <PenguinistaKC> I ought to go download it and throw it on my dell poweredge one of these days
[04:14] <nixlover> Jack_Sparrow: so...
[04:14] <Hansel> aricz - wanna jump into t3g and duel?  its addictive!
[04:14] <Stormx2> cosmin: "Skype is empty". Lawl. Are you trying to be as ambiguous as possible?
[04:15] <nostotu> t3g?
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> nixlover: Read the link..
[04:15] <nostotu> !t3g
[04:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about t3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:15] <aricz> Hansel : hehe, haven't configured wine yet, and don't remember how I configured continuum to make it run :)
[04:15] <Hansel> aggg...
[04:15] <cosmin> i don't speak very god english
[04:15] <nostotu> what is it hansel?
[04:15] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: ok i down loaded and installed newest drivers.What else do i need to do before a restart?
[04:15] <Hansel> T3G = T3 the Gauntlet.  It's a server in a game called Continuum (formerly Subspace)
[04:15] <aricz> Hansel : you see, my hdd crashed earlier today.. haven't set up wine like it was yet :p
[04:15] <Stormx2> cosmin: What language do you normally speak?
[04:15] <Hansel> nostotu - its an online game... it's like asteroids on steroids. :P
[04:15] <nostotu> dood
[04:15] <cosmin> is someoane here to help me or just to be mucho
[04:15] <nostotu> free or no?
[04:15] <aricz> but yessss, Continuum aka subspace .. multiplayer asteroids;p
[04:16] <Hansel> free.  :)
[04:16] <nostotu> oh heck yea
[04:16] <cosmin> i will manage in english
[04:16] <nostotu> i'm all over that
[04:16] <aricz> oldskewl :)
[04:16] <Stormx2> #ubuntu-offtopic guys.
[04:16] <cosmin> do you know how to use skype or not?
[04:16] <Hansel> sorry Stormx2
[04:16] <nostotu> sexy link plz?
[04:16] <sauvin> cosmin, tu n'as pas repondu a la question qu'on t'a posee :)
[04:16] <arooni> how can i get the time that it takes a given gif to complete one 'cycle' of animation?
[04:16] <Stormx2> cosmin: I do.
[04:16] <scoobydoo28139> kitche: are you still there?
[04:17] <cosmin> storm   you are my man then
[04:17] <Stormx2> arooni: You'd need an editor of some sorts.
[04:17] <Stormx2> arooni: Search in synaptic for "animated" or "gif"?
[04:17] <Stormx2> or both ;-)
[04:17] <BaD_CrC> kgifanimator
[04:17] <arooni> Stormx2: thanks!  i found out the GIMP does it
[04:18] <flaremage> anyone know how to configure at&t dsl modem in linux please im
[04:18] <cosmin> i hyave skype.........i have web ......i have a friend.....i whant like my friend to see me .....what shoud i do????
[04:18] <Stormx2> flaremage: Why IM?
[04:18] <Stormx2> !modem | flaremage
[04:18] <ubotu> flaremage: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:18] <juano__> does anyone know a good way to take xmms to the system tray without it showing on the panel below ?
[04:18] <Stormx2> cosmin: Via webcam?
[04:18] <cosmin> is cleare or not?
[04:18] <cosmin> yesss
[04:18] <flaremage> i'm low vision
[04:19] <flaremage> and can't keep up
[04:19] <sauvin> flareimage specifically and clearly asked for help configuring an at&t DSL modem.
[04:19] <scoobydoo28139> Any one there give me some help real quick like before i restart?
[04:19] <Hansel> scoobydoo28139 we can try.. you have to ask a specific question though
[04:19] <BaD_CrC> cosmin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype
[04:19] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: gksu /etc/X11/xorg.conf and find nv most likely and change that to nvidia
[04:19] <Stormx2> cosmin: I'm not entirely sure skype for linux has webcam support?
[04:19] <Stormx2> sauvin: Indeed.
[04:19] <m1r> cosmin , maybe ask in #skype
[04:19] <cosmin> that is my question too
[04:19] <JRsup1> anyone have a good cure for systems that lock up randomly?
[04:19] <Hansel> JRsup1 - usually new motherboard or RAM.  :)
[04:20] <cosmin> i cant't find in skype any "webcam"....
[04:20] <Stormx2> sauvin: And I misread him. DSL modems aren't an ubuntu-specific problem.
[04:20] <flaremage> basically his xp install is dead
[04:20] <BaD_CrC> JRsup1: toss out window, buy new one?
[04:20] <flaremage> they gave him an xp disk to configure propper settings
[04:20] <flaremage> like username and password
[04:20] <Stormx2> JRsup1: Ubuntu?
[04:20] <kitche> scoobydoo28139: they restart X and you should eb good to go anyways I m going to bed now
[04:20] <sauvin> I didn't think so but can't be sure; I've never had DSL. Linux has no idea what my cable modem is, or my router, for that matter, and it couldn't care less.
[04:20] <cosmin> skype has webcam support in windows?
[04:20] <flaremage> sometimes if internet goes down, he has to re-enter
[04:20] <cosmin> or is the same
[04:20] <vas> hey I think I did bad, veyr bad... the apt-get remove command dosen't uninstall packages from a system like I thought it did... does it?
[04:20] <flaremage> how would he do this in ubuntu/linux
[04:20] <Stormx2> cosmin: Yeah, but not in linux.
[04:20] <JRsup1> Stormx2: yes 6.10
[04:21] <JRsup1> Stormx2: and 6.06
[04:21] <vas> I was trying a re-install of a package, but insteadl, the install part does not work too well
[04:21] <scoobydoo28139> kitche thanks
[04:21] <Stormx2> JRsup1: It can be a variety of things.
[04:21] <Stormx2> JRsup1: More often than not its some restricted drivers. Are you using any?
[04:21] <Mobster> can anybody help me get my  Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller  working?
[04:21] <vas> ?
[04:21] <cosmin> how do i do that......in windows
[04:21] <bullgard4> What application program will read the file acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.diff.4 that File Roller found in ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20?
[04:21] <t-dawg> excuse me
[04:22] <t-dawg> 1044
[04:22] <t-dawg> lol
[04:22] <vector> holy cow
[04:22] <vector> There are loads of people in here.
[04:22] <Stormx2> cosmin: Do what in windows?
[04:22] <cosmin> how i can use webcam
[04:22] <scoobydoo28139> hansel: what is the comand to stop x?
[04:22] <vector> do everything?
[04:22] <vas> plz dont leave me hangin
[04:22] <vector> windows is the shit.
[04:22] <Stormx2> cosmin: Ask in ##windows
[04:22] <cosmin> with skype
[04:22] <PenguinistaKC> bullgard4 -- It is a diff file. Any text editor will read it, or you can use diff.
[04:22] <sauvin> Vector, you're almost right. Windows is shit.
[04:22] <JRsup1> Stormx2: don't think so. switched nv to vesa in the xorg config.  VMWare server is installed...that's about it
[04:22] <Stormx2> !ohmy | vector
[04:22] <ubotu> vector: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:22] <Stormx2> vector: Don't troll.
[04:22] <vas> anyone?
[04:22] <sauvin> erm, I apologise for my language.
[04:23] <PenguinistaKC> bullgard4 That file is used to generate a patch to the acpi subsystem of your kernel
[04:23] <vector> Why am I here?
[04:23] <vector> ubuntu sucks.
[04:23] <vector> Lol, no it doesn't.
[04:23] <vector> It just doesn't have the features that fedora has.
[04:23] <Stormx2> vector: I suggest you leave right now.
[04:23] <SlickMcRunfast> vector: in time
[04:23] <Stormx2> vector: Don't make me call the ops >:-E
[04:23] <sauvin> Vector, the features are available, you just have to "yum" them.
[04:23] <BaD_CrC> "features"
[04:24] <vector> lol for what?
[04:24] <sauvin> I'm a Fedora weenie myself, but ubuntu... hee... it's FAST.
[04:24] <JRsup1> Stormx2: Supermicro 370DLE 2xPIII 933MHz server board/CPU's running 6.10 [2.6.17-12-generic kernel] 
[04:24] <vector> Storm, what have I done?
[04:24] <Stormx2> JRsup1: Ah, I don't know then.
[04:25] <Stormx2> vector: The is entirely a problem solving channel. Discussions of ubuntu itself should be in #ubuntu-offtopic, and even there, comments like "ubuntu sucks" aren't welcomed discussion.
[04:25] <vector> O
[04:25] <vector> :D my bad.
[04:25] <vector> It actually isn't entirely bad.
[04:26] <BaD_CrC> if ubuntu sucks, why does it suck and how can it be made better?
[04:26] <vector> I'm kidding.
[04:26] <newbie0034> hello, I just got a new internal 500 gig hard drive,, what should I do to install it ?
[04:26] <flaremage> i've got 7.06
[04:26] <vector> Linux is one of the most multi-purpose operating systems out there.
[04:26] <scoobydoo28139> what is fedora?
[04:26] <Mobster> hello when i enter iwconfig it Ubuntu recognises i have a my wireless  card but i still cant turn it on
[04:26] <Stormx2> newbie0034: #hardware is what you need ;-)
[04:27] <n2diy> scoobydoo28139: a hat, a red hat.
[04:27] <gmn> does anyone know how to insall the cypress m8 serial to usb converter?
[04:27] <Stormx2> scoobydoo28139: Fedora Core is a linux distro funded by Red Hat,
[04:27] <newbie0034> Stormx2: ,, thanks is this for ubuntu ?
[04:27] <mheath> scoobydoo28139, Another Linux software distribution, like Ubuntu.
[04:27] <scoobydoo28139> oooohh
[04:27] <scoobydoo28139> not free then
[04:27] <CompIsMyRx> Mobster: which card is it?
[04:27] <CompIsMyRx> fedora is the free spinoff of redhat
[04:27] <mheath> scoobydoo28139, Fedora is free to download.
[04:27] <Stormx2> newbie0034: The ubuntu bit is easy. First you need to put the drive in and make sure your mobo recognises it.
[04:28] <Stormx2> scoobydoo28139: Most of the stuff on it is libre, but it has something of a slacker free-software ethic than ubuntu (not a criticism)
[04:28] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it, and I can't find it listed in dmesg either?
[04:28] <newbie0034> Stormx2: I can install it just, how will ubuntu find it? what will the directory be? or  should I format it ?
[04:28] <gmn> http://www.linuxhq.com/kernel/v2.6/10/drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.h
[04:28] <gmn> how do I apply this
[04:28] <scoobydoo28139> is it like knoppix?
[04:29] <bullgard4> Penguin: I could now open that file. But please tell me what program will generate this patch to the ACPI subsystem of my kernel?
[04:29] <n2diy> scoobydoo28139: knoppix is a live cd, based on Debian, like Ubuntu is.
[04:29] <Stormx2> newbie0034: First you'll need to format it. Then you can mount your partitions whereever you like (e.g. mount the first partition as /media/music or whatever)
[04:29] <Icyfox> There isn't much you have to do to get clear font rendering in ubuntu right? I've followed all the tutorials to make sure it was set right but i can't seem to get clear font rendering (at least in my opinion) in firefox.  Fonts seem to be rendered find in all programs other than firefox.  I never seemed to run into this problem using gentoo so i'm at a loss on what to do.
[04:29] <codey_> hey
[04:30] <gmn> .j linux
[04:30] <newbie0034> Stromx2: do I need to do something special to make it automatically mount at the same location everytime?  (it's internal not external)
[04:30] <SeveredCross> Anyone know anything about the iwl3495 drivvevr?
[04:30] <SeveredCross> newbie0034: You need to edit /etc/fstab if things don't automagically mount.
[04:30] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: sudo modprobe cypress_m8
[04:30] <newbie0034> Stormx2: will ubuntu handle this automatically?
[04:30] <Stormx2> newbie0034: Yep, you need to edit /etc/fstab
[04:30] <gmn> thanks
[04:30] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: that will activate the driver for it
[04:31] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: you have to do that everytime
[04:31] <gmn> awesome, Im trying to install a DeLORME GPS unit
[04:31] <Stormx2> newbie0034: We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. The jist of it is that as long as things work hardware-wise, ubuntu won't have a problem.
[04:31] <scoobydoo28139> you people have any advise for me before i restart?
[04:31] <litlebuda> newbie0034, just use gparted
[04:31] <newbie0034> I didn't install it yet,, I'll pop it in and see how it goes
[04:31] <newbie0034> thanks!
[04:31] <n2diy> scoobydoo28139: why/what are you restarting?
[04:31] <Sonicadvance1> A question. I have a NIC that works under DSL(Damn Small Linux) but in Ubuntu it doesn't work at all, any way to get it to work under Ubuntu?
[04:32] <gmn> CompIsmyrx: FATAL: Module cypress_m not found.
[04:32] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: cypress_m8
[04:32] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: do you happen to know what module it uses ?
[04:32] <n2diy> Sonicadvance1: determine what module the card uses with DSL, and install it in Ubuntu.
[04:32] <Tiaka> haloo
[04:32] <scoobydoo28139> n3diy:i am restarting my computer after installing new drivers for my video card.Its an 8500gt nvidia
[04:32] <gmn> ahh
[04:32] <Tiaka> help me
[04:32] <echosystm> how do you install somethign from a .deb package from command line?
[04:32] <Tiaka> haloo help me
[04:33] <n2diy> n3diy?
[04:33] <CompIsMyRx> echosystm: sudo dpkg -i nameofpackage.deb
[04:33] <Sonicadvance1> Icyfox, n2diy, how would I find out which module it uses?
[04:33] <gmn> CompIsmyrx: after I do that it should be activated?
[04:33] <Bogaurd> echosystm: dpkg -i pack.deb
[04:33] <Tiaka> my ubuntu 7.04 can install tar.gx2
[04:33] <BaD_CrC> echosystm: dpkg - i <packagefile>
[04:33] <dr_willis> !ask
[04:33] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:33] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: lsmod in dsl
[04:33] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: yes
[04:33] <Stormx2> Tiaka: How do you expect us to help without describing your problem?
[04:33] <n2diy> Sonicadvance1: lsmod
[04:33] <echosystm> thanks
[04:33] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: then some guessing to which one it is since you will probably have a long list
[04:33] <Stormx2> Tiaka: Okay. First up, are you sure the app you're installing isn't in the repos?
[04:33] <curiogeo> I have just move my ubuntu 6.06 server hd to a new piece of hardware and almost everything seems OK except eth0 is not recognized and the SAMBA DC on that box is also not visible from clients any ideas why?
[04:33] <Sonicadvance1> I see
[04:33] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: you could also look up the chipset on google to find out what module suites it
[04:34] <scoobydoo28139> n2diy:i am restarting my computer after installing new drivers for my video card.Its an 8500gt nvidia
[04:34] <Sonicadvance1> I did look it up, it said a tulip driver works under it
[04:34] <echosystm> ugh
[04:34] <echosystm> dependency problems
[04:34] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: then it is hard to believe ubuntu didn't autoload that driver
[04:34] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: tulip is a very common driver
[04:34] <echosystm> is there any way to install a .deb package and have it automatically get the dependencies?
[04:34] <Icyfox> Sonicadvance1: well better to say module but you get the idea
[04:34] <Sonicadvance1> meh
[04:34] <n2diy> Sonicadvance1: I don't think that is needed, just log out, and back in again, I think.
[04:34] <curiogeo> I can access the box through the eth1 interface however
[04:34] <duvnell> hi, I'm running ubuntu-7.04  ... I'm trying to format a floppy (on cmd line or with GUI tools).. I have no /dev/fd0.. it's /dev/sdb rather now.. and things like the fdformat tool and kfloppy, et all are really confusued
[04:34] <gmn> CompIsmyrx: is there somewhere I can see if it in recognizing the GPS unit
[04:34] <Stormx2> echosystm: It'll do that automatically if they're available.
[04:35] <Stormx2> echosystm; Why are you using a .deb?
[04:35] <BaD_CrC> echosystm: if you can do it from the X gui, 'gksu gdebi pack.deb'
[04:35] <duvnell> is this a known issue
[04:35] <Tiaka> ok....
[04:35] <echosystm> because its not in the repository
[04:35] <echosystm> deluge-torrent
[04:35] <thinlace> can someone tell me how to advance frame by frame in either MPlayer or KMPlayer?
[04:35] <younghacker> is there a GUI config and admin tool for Apache?
[04:35] <Stormx2> echosystm: Ah, I have deluge installed.
[04:35] <Tiaka> my ubuntuk said "C compiler"
[04:35] <Stormx2> echosystm: There is a .deb specifically for ubuntu, methinks.
[04:35] <echosystm> yes
[04:35] <echosystm> thats what i downloaded
[04:36] <echosystm> dpkg -i afadsad.deb
[04:36] <echosystm> said
[04:36] <Stormx2> echosystm: And what package are you missing?
[04:36] <echosystm> dependency problems
[04:36] <echosystm> no idea
[04:36] <echosystm> it doesnt say
[04:36] <pawan> how to open .chm files
[04:36] <BaD_CrC> i got deluge-torrent from the http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy
[04:36] <echosystm> oh wait, sorry
[04:36] <Tiaka> where i can download repos?

[04:39] <echosystm> ok i just did it

[04:39] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: I think gpsdrive is a client for it
[04:39] <PenguinistaKC> CerebroJD -- you must restart X after making changes to xorg.conf
[04:39] <echosystm> it says dependency problems prevent configuration of deluge-torrent
[04:40] <CerebroJD> PenguinistaKC, thanks :)
[04:40] <PenguinistaKC> CrebroJD -- no problem, any time. :)
[04:40] <Stormx2> echosystm: You need universe and multiverse installed
[04:40] <Stormx2> Not installed
[04:40] <echosystm> i have
[04:40] <gmn> yea, do you know what the interface for this would be?  /dev/?
[04:40] <duvnell> oo.. maybe because it's a usb floppy
[04:40] <Stormx2> Enabled.
[04:40] <echosystm> :P
[04:40] <Stormx2> echosystm: sudo apt-get update
[04:41] <gmn> compismyrx: do you know what the interface for this would be?  /dev/?
[04:41] <n2diy> duvnell: good call, I was stumped.
[04:41] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: something /dev/ttyUSB0
[04:41] <Tiaka> Stormx2: can I have a link for folder to download it ( repos )
[04:41] <duvnell> n2diy: now how can I do a low-level format on it?
[04:41] <madman91> if i setup an ftp server.. with port 50.. do i access it by going to firefox --> ip:50
[04:41] <HelpMe> Stormx2:   I did that, but now it says:   It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first.    :-[
[04:41] <echosystm> i have done that
[04:41] <echosystm> when i was installing
[04:41] <Stormx2> Tiaka; Please read the page ubotu linked you to a while ago...
[04:42] <n2diy> duvnell: on a usb floppy? I don't know.
[04:42] <CerebroJD> Second question... Ever since I got beryl working on this lappy, I havent had a restart or shutdown button in the 'leave ubuntu' options that you get when you click the 'little door' in the corner... any way to restore these?
[04:42] <duvnell> hrm

[04:42] <n2diy> duvnell: very carefully, you don't want to lock it.
[04:42] <echosystm> it is meant to be complete
[04:42] <echosystm> but maybe there are some things missing
[04:42] <t325> Hello, I'm trying to setup internet access on my computer; I use statical IP addresses. The wireless device which I want to use has the correct IP settings and is connected to y wireless network, the DNS are set up, but nothing works... (I can't ping my router nor google)
[04:42] <duvnell> n2diy: the diskette is trashable.. are you refering to something more serious?
[04:42] <gmn> compismyrx: oh great, thanks!
[04:42] <CompIsMyRx> gmn: np
[04:43] <HelpMe> Stormx2:   yes, but now this other thing comes up
[04:43] <duvnell> n2diy: a utility called ufiformat
[04:43] <n2diy> duvnell: yes, a usb drive.
[04:43] <Stormx2> !wireless | t325
[04:43] <ubotu> t325: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:43] <duvnell> n2diy: I can lock up the drive?  perm error or just a reboot/module-unload issue?
[04:43] <Stormx2> And with that, I'm off to bed.
[04:44] <n2diy> duvnell: yes, a usb flash drive drive.
[04:44] <HelpMe> Stormx2:   this comes up :       E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:44] <HelpMe> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

[04:44] <duvnell> n2diy: it's not a flash drive tho
[04:44] <Stormx2> HelpMe: Close down synaptic, update manager, stuff like that.
[04:44] <echosystm> i got it working Stormx2
[04:44] <n2diy> duvnell: ok, you can lock a flash drive, I doubt you could do that to a usb floppy.
[04:44] <echosystm> apt-get -f install fixed it
[04:44] <HelpMe> Stormx2:  its not open
[04:45] <duvnell> n2diy: thx for the caution
[04:45] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it, and I can't find it listed in dmesg either?
[04:46] <duvnell> n2diy: dealing with old crap ..   you and me both :)
[04:46] <Tiaka> Stormx2:i can get it....where i can download the repos...the problem right now in my office i use WIndows....but the ubuntu is in my home...no internet connection
[04:46] <duvnell> n2diy: I just got my vintage Amiga 500 in the mail.. trying to get the OS on a floppy :)
[04:46] <n2diy> duvnell: I love old crap, I get it for free, and most of it still works.

[04:47] <blairellis> My monitor supports 1440x900
[04:47] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: if you want any 3d things at all (e.g. games) you'll need the proprietary nvidia-legacy drivers

[04:50] <CerebroJD> t325, where did you configure the static IP?

[04:51] <vas> scunizi, yes gui-less

[04:56] <HelpMe> ok, then is says:  luke@luke-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get -f install
[04:56] <HelpMe> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

[04:56] <HelpMe>   astro76:
[04:57] <Scunizi> vas, you might need to enable multiverse and universe in the repository list.
[04:57] <CerebroJD> t325, I'm not sure... from what you've described, it seems like it should be ok
[04:57] <CerebroJD> what do you have your subnet mask as?
[04:57] <t325> 255.255.255.0
[04:57] <ozzman> I have been trying to install Divx plug ins for firefox X32 run on ubuntu x86_64 but with no luck.
[04:57] <ozzman> any one with a solution?
[04:57] <astro76> HelpMe, run that then, with sudo
[04:57] <CompIsMyRx> ozzman: why? Gstreamer reads divx
[04:57] <vas> scunizi, how? BTW I VERY VERY EXTREMELY appreciate all this help, I have been lost since I started on my endeavor
[04:58] <HelpMe> astro76:   theeeen, when i run that is says I dont have the right privoleges
[04:58] <Scunizi> vas, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.lst....... no problem..
[04:58] <CerebroJD> t325, hmm... and the ip is set to be somewhere between 192.168.1.1-254?
[04:58] <vas> and scunizi why does it say it cannot resolve alot of the package sites
[04:58] <vas> when I update
[04:58] <astro76> HelpMe, did you put sudo before it?
[04:58] <t325> yes, 192.168.1.5
[04:58] <CerebroJD> Heh, same as my setup, it sounds like :P
[04:58] <HelpMe> astro76:   i just put what it said to put
[04:58] <vas> scunizi, /etc/apt/sources.lst is empty
[04:59] <Scunizi> vas, you may still have the CD enabled for a source and not have multiverse and universe enabled.
[04:59] <astro76> HelpMe, put sudo before it.....
[04:59] <CompIsMyRx> vas: /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:59] <Scunizi> vas, hang on I'll look at my Dapper sys.
[04:59] <t325> CerebroJD: could you please paste the output of the route command on your pc?
[04:59] <muzie> ls
[04:59] <vas> scunizi, alright I am in sources.list
[04:59] <ryanakca> what package provides the app/binary for `man rtfm`   (the manpage is from `sudo apt-get install funny-manpages`)
[04:59] <CerebroJD> t325, mine's a wireless setup using DHCP now, actually... otherwise I would!
[05:00] <HelpMe> astro76:  like:  sudo  dpkg --configure -a
[05:00] <HelpMe> ?
[05:00] <Scunizi> vas, good.  the repositories with a "#" in front are not active.  just remove the # from multiverse and universe.
[05:00] <ozzman> CompIsMyRx: do i need to install that?
[05:00] <vas> alrighty
[05:00] <astro76> ryanakca, what package provides man?
[05:00] <HelpMe> astro76:   then: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[05:00] <younghacker> httpd.conf is empty as of now do i need to create virtual hosts first?
[05:01] <Scunizi> vas, once that is done write the file and exit. Then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade to bring your system up to day.
[05:01] <Scunizi> *date
[05:01] <vas> scunizi alrighty
[05:01] <t325> CerebroJD: Ok.. before you used static addresses? Do you remember how to set up the routes correctly?
[05:01] <ryanakca> astro76: no, nevermind, the manpage is a joke, it describes an 'imaginary' app (I thought there actually was a rtfm command)
[05:01] <MajorPayne> What's the best way to play rmvb on Ubuntu?  Do I have to install Real Player (I hope not).
[05:01] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, I did "sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals"  but outcome was not good.  Images were double, (side by side).  Where did I go wrong?
[05:01] <astro76> ryanakca, lol
[05:01] <pr4bh> hows xfce enviornment? ive wiki'd it, but still not sure whether to install it as an optional element
[05:01] <vas> scunizi, 0's across the board
[05:01] <vas> none upgarded removed, ect...
[05:01] <pr4bh> i love gnome, kde is good too
[05:01] <CerebroJD> t325, I just edited the /etc/network/interfaces file like you have
[05:01] <pr4bh> but
[05:02] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: I guess mplayer would be able to play it!
[05:02] <pr4bh> xfce.. mm not sure about that now
[05:02] <ryanakca> astro76: http://internet.ls-la.net/man-pages/rtfm-2.html :)
[05:02] <CerebroJD> I used it to configure static ip's on my wireless network, and it worked fine at the time
[05:02] <Scunizi> vas, snorts a pretty big endeavor for a nOOb.  Good on the "0's"
[05:02] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: It does not.  I installed every codec I would find in apt-get.
[05:02] <usr13> Display adapter is GeForce4 MX 440 AG
[05:02] <CompIsMyRx> ozzman: which player will use the divx plugins? mplayer? realplayer?
[05:02] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: double? howso?
[05:02] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: All it does is play the sound.
[05:02] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: what abou VLC?
[05:02] <vas> scunizi, o that is a good result?
[05:02] <vas> scunizi what next?
[05:02] <Tiaka> its anyone tell me the link direct where i can download the repos?i to confusing read on ubuntu web site
[05:02] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: VLC does not support Real Player.  It says so on their webiset.
[05:02] <__spitFIRE> wait a minute
[05:03] <Scunizi> vas, looking up snort in the dapper repos
[05:03] <usr13> There were two login windows, side by side - on either side of the screen.
[05:03] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: website*
[05:03] <HelpMe> astro76: ?  You there?
[05:03] <dr_willis> Tiaka,  you want to mirror ALL The repo site?
[05:03] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: that's interesting
[05:03] <vas> scunizi, through a website or that command you sent me earlier
[05:03] <grimeboy> When starting jackd from qjackctl all I get is a few xruns then "jackd watchdog: timeout - killing jackd". Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
[05:03] <Tiaka> dr_willis yes
[05:03] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it, and I can't find it listed in dmesg either?
[05:03] <vas> scunizi aptitude
[05:03] <Scunizi> vas, try sudo apt-get install snort
[05:03] <xtknight> n2diy, what do you mean by "active printer port"?
[05:03] <ozzman> I have been trying to install Divx plug ins for firefox X32 run on ubuntu x86_64 but with no luck.
[05:03] <dr_willis> Tiaka,  you do realize that will be rather... large..    :0
[05:03] <vas> scunizi still same message
[05:03] <dr_willis> !apt-mirror
[05:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-mirror - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:03] <dr_willis> Hmm
[05:03] <ryanakca> Tiaka: try http://popey.com/Creating_an_Ubuntu_repository_mirror_with_apt-mirror
[05:03] <usr13> Sould I just try sudo nvidia-xconfig  ?
[05:04] <Scunizi> vas, which version of server? feisty?
[05:04] <astro76> HelpMe, that's odd
[05:04] <usr13> CompIsMyRx,  ?
[05:04] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: have you installed 'w32codecs'?
[05:04] <xtknight> n2diy, you can have multiple printers on LPT01, LPT02, etc.  none is more "active" than the other necessarily.  do you want to determine which ones are plugged in?
[05:04] <HelpMe> astro76:  whats is?
[05:04] <vas> 7.05
[05:04] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: Yes.
[05:04] <HelpMe> o_O\
[05:04] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: that should just give the same result
[05:04] <ryanakca> Tiaka: of course, it's not an ubuntu site, and there's no guarantees that it will work
[05:04] <Tiaka> its anyone tell me the link direct where i can download the repos?i to confusing read on ubuntu web site
[05:04] <n2diy> xtknight: my friends onboard sound card died, he disabled it in bios, installed a pci lpt port, and the system isn't finding it.
[05:04] <Scunizi> vas, ok..
[05:04] <__spitFIRE> hmmm...
[05:04] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, How about the legacy driver?
[05:04] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: that's odd though. I've never heard of a doubled login window
[05:04] <ryanakca> Tiaka: are you trying to install a program?
[05:04] <CompIsMyRx> those are older drivers
[05:04] <astro76> HelpMe, that sudo dpkg --configure -a didn't work
[05:04] <vas> scunizi, is that one fiesto?
[05:05] <CompIsMyRx> really old
[05:05] <xtknight> n2diy, just so im getting the whole story here how is the sound card related to LPT?
[05:05] <vas> fiestyy***
[05:05] <dr_willis> Tiaka, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/   got it straight from the apt/sources.list file
[05:05] <nitrocks> can anyone tell me why my eth0 is no longer present in ifconfig?.. it seems to be replaced by vmnet1 and vmnet8
[05:05] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, Want to see diff xorg.conf xorg.conf.backup ?
[05:05] <Scunizi> vas, can you pastebin your sources list?  7.04 is Feisty .. the latest.

[05:06] <Scunizi> vas, are you running irssi? for an IRC client
[05:06] <ryanakca> Tiaka: what are you trying to do. Download every program in the repos and make it available to others, or install a program?
[05:06] <xtknight> n2diy, so, was a module loaded for the PCI LPT card?
[05:06] <vas> scunizi colluqoy

[05:06] <Tiaka> my ubuntu can install tar.gz file
[05:07] <astro76> nitrocks, have you installed vmware lately?
[05:07] <n2diy> xtknight: I doubt it, he can't even find the lpt card. It is plug and prey, with no jumpers.
[05:07] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: seems real player has to be installed :(
[05:07] <ryanakca> Tiaka: yes, you would have to compile the sources. I recommend using the repositories and synaptic to install software.
[05:07] <Tiaka> my ubuntu cant install tar.gz file
[05:07] <xtknight> n2diy, lpt card isn't even detected by BIOS/pci config ?
[05:07] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: Humm.  That kinda sucks.  But ohh well.
[05:07] <ByteEnable> what makes ubuntu better than say, Fedora or openSUSE ?
[05:07] <CompIsMyRx> Tiaka: you have to compile those first
[05:07] <HelpMe> astro76:   oh, um.  Acctually, it did woek
[05:07] <needinfo> Can I get help here with MythTV?
[05:07] <ryanakca> Tiaka: did you look at the link about synaptic?
[05:08] <HelpMe> astro76:   It worked, i just dident try it out!  xD
[05:08] <xtknight> n2diy, i assume this is a different pc then.  can you get him to upload "sudo lspci -vv" ?
[05:08] <Tiaka> ryanakca:repositories and synaptic??? i want to install gambas...

[05:08] <HelpMe> astro76:   thanks space man!!!  :)
[05:08] <ryanakca> Tiaka: yes. You use synaptic, which downloads gambas from the repositories and installs it
[05:08] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: I know lots of stuff.
[05:08] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: I''m able to play RealMedia using mplayer
[05:08] <CompIsMyRx> Tiaka: sudo aptitude install gambas

[05:08] <vas> scuzini.. it was pastebin.ca but ... anyways...
[05:08] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: sorry!!!
[05:08] <ryanakca> Tiaka: just point your browser to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto and follow the instructions.
[05:09] <xtknight> i think RV30 and RV40 real codecs need w32 codec DLLs.  RV10 and RV20 play thru FFMPEG
[05:09] <astro76> Tiaka, have you just tried sudo apt-get install gambas ? or in synaptic?
[05:09] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: as I was saying I can play realmedia files, using Kmplayer
[05:09] <n2diy> xtknight: I don't know about bios or pci detection, and I don't have access to the machine. And we are trouble shooting via email, so I won't have the answers for a while. But you have put me on the path.
[05:09] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: Is there more than one type of real media video codec?
[05:09] <Tiaka>  ryanakca:the problem its...i dont have the  repositories ,i only have gambas.tar.gz where in download form sofllinux.xom
[05:09] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: you must tell me as I have no info on that!
[05:09] <yell8w> uhm guys, is anyone familiar with alsamixer and microphone ?
[05:09] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30847/
[05:09] <yell8w> i can't seem to get mine to work
[05:10] <xtknight> n2diy, so it wasn't listed in "sudo lshw" you say?  i find that hard to believe
[05:10] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: I should add, the codec that totem suggested, I installed that, but it still does not work.
[05:10] <ryanakca> Tiaka: yes, that's ok. The repositories are enabled by default. Follow the instruction in the link
[05:10] <CerebroJD> sorry t325, stepped out for a second
[05:10] <Scunizi> vas, looks like you have multiverse unlocked but you also have breezy repo's unlocked. that's weird.  breezy was 3 versions of ubuntu ago.
[05:10] <CompIsMyRx> usr13:oh wow, that would it
[05:10] <CerebroJD> t325, I'm not quite sure how to resolve the issue, it sounds like you've done everything right
[05:10] <__spitFIRE> you have an url to the real media you are trying to play?
[05:10] <ryanakca> Tiaka: the repositories aren't a program per-se, rather, they are a collection of easily installable software in .deb format.
[05:11] <n2diy> xtknight: lshw doesn't list my lpt port here either, and it is working.
[05:11] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, Lots of changes!
[05:11] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: No URI.  It's a local file.

[05:11] <Tiaka> ryanakca:its ubuntu have gambas.deb?
[05:11] <T-Connect> I download Konversation back. The download and upload should be normal now.
[05:11] <ryanakca> Tiaka: Synaptic, which also comes in Ubuntu by default, will download the .deb from the repo, which is basically a webserver, and then installs them
[05:11] <Scunizi> vas, I also noticed you have your cd still activated in line 3. Put a # in front of that line.

[05:18] <alecwh> I just changed my user login name, "alec" to "alecwh". However, it didn't change my home folder name. How do I change the folder name? If I did it through root, would it be bad?
[05:18] <vas> yes
[05:19] <n2diy> xtknight: And the printer is on, waiting for a job.
[05:19] <Scunizi> vas, good. sudo apt-get update
[05:19] <vas> Scunizi: I commented out the CD line

[05:19] <vas> yes
[05:19] <vas> sudo apt-get update
[05:19] <Tiaka> ryanakca: i will try on my home
[05:19] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: totem still doesn't play real media files on my system!
[05:19] <worzel> can some one help me please
[05:19] <ryanakca> Tiaka: ok, good luck :)
[05:20] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: but "kmplayer" does
[05:20] <ryanakca> !ask | worzel
[05:20] <ubotu> worzel: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:20] <xtknight> n2diy, ok but you have /dev/parport0 right?
[05:20] <vas> Scunizi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30852/
[05:20] <usr13> CompIsMyRx,  It's only the login screen that is messed up.  After you log in, it's ok.
[05:20] <worzel> ok
[05:20] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, Should I try a reboot?
[05:20] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: I I tried many players after installing them codecs.  I am not really using totem.  I'm just using that post for the list of codecs.
[05:20] <Tiaka> ryanakca: do now where file.dep can be download?mirror?
[05:20] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: Even mplayer.
[05:20] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: that should work
[05:20] <worzel> trying to run compiz fusion but getting this
[05:20] <vas> Scunizi: ignore the last few lines.. did not delete the old contents of the pastebin input box all the wa..
[05:21] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: you're supposed to reboot after changing graphics drivers that are kernel level anyway
[05:21] <Scunizi> vas, ok looking at it now.
[05:21] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: Not sure about kmplayer.  Is it just a GUI for mplayer?  I really don't want anything to do with KDE.
[05:21] <CompIsMyRx> usr13: like nvidia's :)
[05:21] <__spitFIRE> yup
[05:21] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, Ok, I'll reboot...
[05:21] <usr13> brb
[05:21] <n2diy> xtknight: Yes.
[05:21] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: what is the error you are getting?
[05:21] <ByteEnable> CompIsMyRx, u don't have to reboot...just ctrl-alt-backspace.
[05:21] <alecwh> I just changed my user login name, "alec" to "alecwh". However, it didn't change my home folder name. How do I change the folder name? If I did it through root, would it be bad?
[05:22] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: "Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format 0x30345652."
[05:22] <xtknight> n2diy, ok well im not really sure how to help you further with this
[05:22] <n2diy> xtknight: so the device is /dev/parportX, not lpt!
[05:22] <pawan> hi
[05:22] <xtknight> n2diy, maybe /dev/lp0 too
[05:23] <pawan> any good ebook on ubuntu 7.04
[05:23] <younghacker> does anyone know where the  default index.html is located when installing apache2?
[05:23] <n2diy> xtknight: Ok, thanks for the help. Is there an ls command that would list parportX?
[05:23] <xtknight> n2diy, not that i know of
[05:23] <xtknight> n2diy, well it does on mine
[05:24] <sloucher> younghacker /var/www
[05:24] <younghacker> thanks i'll cnow heck
[05:24] <younghacker> check now
[05:25] <xtknight> n2diy, debug output is sometimes at "dmesg | grep parport" or "dmesg | grep ppdev" or "dmesg | grep lp"
[05:25] <n2diy> xtknight: Ok, I mean without the path, since my friend has no idea where is printer "is". Thanks, I have enough ideas to keep him busy for awhile. :)
[05:25] <Scunizi> vas, check out my sources.list.  The primary difference should only be mentioning feisty instead of Dapper.
[05:25] <n2diy> xtknight: Let me go search dmesg for parportX.
[05:25] <Scunizi> vas, sorry here's the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30853/
[05:26] <moyer> woo woo
[05:26] <xtknight> n2diy, the printer would definitely be at a /dev/lp  node, AFAIK.  i think parport is an older parport or something
[05:26] <moyer> anyone know how i could speed up my shitty intel 82865G graphics card?
[05:26] <vas> so I should copy your sources.list and change every Dapper to feisty
[05:26] <alecwh> I just changed my user login name, "alec" to "alecwh". However, it didn't change my home folder name. How do I change the folder name? If I did it through root, would it be bad?
[05:26] <vas> Scunizi:
[05:26] <Scunizi> vas, another great source of info on IRC for server is at #server.  They might be able to paste Feisty's actual sources.list
[05:26] <nitro> hi
[05:27] <Scunizi> vas, sorry didn't see your posts above because my nick wasn't mentioned.
[05:27] <Scunizi> vas, you could try.  make a back up of your sources first though.
[05:27] <vas> Scunizi: yes where you sent me the sources
[05:27] <worzel> hi imj trying to install compiz fusion but getting this  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) can any one help me
[05:27] <jbitt> hello all
[05:28] <vas> Scunizi: should I just google a fresh sources list for Fiesty
[05:28] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: I give up! I have no clue as to why you are getting that problem; I'm terribly sorry that I can't help you.
[05:28] <Scunizi> vas, might work. or go to #ubuntu-server for someone there to give you the real macoy. :)
[05:28] <usr13> CompIsMyRx, It works.  Thanks.
[05:28] <sloucher> vas, ubuntu guide has a good source list http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[05:29] <Tiaka> where i can download program *.dep for ubuntu 7.04?
[05:29] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: for the last time, one more question - the error you quoted was what you saw with totem, right?
[05:29] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: or was that with mplayer?
[05:29] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: mplayer.
[05:30] <sloucher> tiaka *.beb ? What are you looking for exactly?
[05:30] <vas> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Manually_edit_sources.list -- should I follow that
[05:30] <n2diy> xtknight: Ok, I searched dmseg for parport*, parport*.*, and parport?.*, and it isn't found.
[05:30] <Scunizi> vas, sloucher looks like he's given you a good link for the info.  Unfortunately I've gotta run.. good luck! :-)
[05:30] <jbitt> I'm getting error messages regarding the HAL not initializing on boot...can anyone offer suggestions?
[05:30] <vas> Scunizi: THNX FOR EVERYTHING bud... i really appreciate it
[05:30] <Joeh> Hey, can someone tell me if the 3.0.25 Samba version is working with ubuntu?
[05:30] <sloucher> vas, i do I love that guide
[05:30] <Scunizi> vas, no prob....
[05:30] <Tiaka> sloucher:dep...gambas....beryl
[05:30] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: mplayer from that command line.  Ohh well.  I will grit my teath and install Real Player.
[05:31] <vas> sloucher: yes it seems very informative... but the example template it gives should work for me if I customize it correctly
[05:31] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: :(
[05:31] <worzel> hi imj trying to install compiz fusion but getting this  Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) can any one help me
[05:31] <jbitt> my boot times are insanely long and I can't access the "Removable Drives and Storage" applet
[05:31] <moyer> does anyone know how to make my soundcard load at boot? I set it to start with the session but for some reason my flash player in firefox wont recognize it, i need it to load before the x serv starts.. any suggestions?
[05:31] <Joeh> Can someone tell me how i would go about upgrading samba version 3.0.24 > 3.0.25
[05:31] <sloucher> tiaka, maybe i can suggest a program called synaptic to install programs?
[05:33] <Tiaka> synaptic...in my home..i donr have internet connection?so i must download from my office to install at home
[05:33] <Mastercactapus> hey can anybody help me with bluetooth? i get device address of 11:11:11:11:11:11 ive tried multiple bluetooth adapters (usb and my ports are v1.1)
[05:33] <dzer0> hello
[05:33] <alecwh> I just changed my user login name, "alec" to "alecwh". However, it didn't change my home folder name. How do I change the folder name? If I did it through root, would it be bad?
[05:34] <vas> sloucher: do I need to download the gpg keys
[05:34] <jaw> Hi everybody, is this where I can ask a question about my freshly installed Ubuntu?
[05:34] <Tiaka> sloucher:synaptic...in my home..i dont have internet connection?so i must download from my office to install at home
[05:34] <Nutubuntu> Hi jaw, yes :)
[05:34] <dzer0> I'm about to go completely insane. My computer was working fine up until I rebooted and found out that for some reason, ALSA stopped working. Now I can either set it to ALSA which doesn't work, or set it to go to the sound card directly which lets only 1 program use sound at a time. This is so frustrating.
[05:35] <Nitro> hola
[05:35] <erb__> I'm trying to use the sort command but I'm getting a1,a10,a11...a2,a20,etc  instead of a1,a2,a3,etc. I used 'sort -nk 2' to sort numerically from the second character to no avail.
[05:35] <sloucher> Tiaka, that makes it hard - So you download the .deb packagaes at the office and bring them home? Then you install them with dpkg -i ?
[05:35] <jaw> Great, thanks Nutubuntu. I'm trying to sudo apt-get install ssh in order to be able to ssh into my ubuntu box (7.04). But it seems that's the wrong package. Is it already set up to allow ssh connections?
[05:36] <Megaqwerty> jaw: openssh-server
[05:36] <vas> sloucher: ?
[05:36] <Tiaka>  sloucher: no the problem is.where i can download the collection of *.deb on internet?
[05:36] <fistfullofroses> try apt-get install ssh2
[05:36] <slavik> dzer0: system -> admin -> sound
[05:37] <sloucher> vas, oh got you finally
[05:37] <slavik> !info openssh
[05:37] <ubotu> Package openssh does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:37] <Tiaka> sloucher: the web site link?mirror?
[05:37] <slavik> !openssh
[05:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about openssh - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:37] <Megaqwerty>  !info openssh-server
[05:37] <ubotu> openssh-server: Secure shell server, an rshd replacement. In component main, is optional. Version 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 230 kB, installed size 596 kB
[05:37] <slavik> oh, that one
[05:37] <Megaqwerty> yeah
[05:37] <dash> howdy. anybody want to tell me what I should be looking at to remap keys in X?
[05:37] <dzer0> slavik: I have tried every possible permutation of the available settings and the only working ones are the ones that go direct to the soundcard, which only lets 1 app use sound at a time
[05:37] <vas> sloucher: its good, but after I edit that file as it says ( I didn't need to because it was already written for someone in the US)... and save it as sources.list do I need to download the gpg keys at is says, or can I just go ahead and sudo apt-get update
[05:38] <Megaqwerty> dash: System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts ?
[05:38] <sloucher> vas, here you go - pick a mirror and drill down
[05:38] <sloucher> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors
[05:38] <slavik> dzer0: when you set it to proper settings (the ones you want), have you tried the "test" button?
[05:38] <vas> sloucher: wait I don't need to download ubuntu?
[05:38] <balleyne> dash: do you mean switching from italian to english? that kind of remapping? or do you mean making keyboard shortcuts type remapping?
[05:38] <jaw> thanks Megaqwerty and ubotu and others, although I'm getting an error. I'll put it on a pastie
[05:38] <dash> Megaqwerty: That lets me change keyboard shortcuts used by metacity but it doesn't let me change what gets produced by a particular keypress
[05:39] <sloucher> oops, that was meant for tiako
[05:39] <jbitt> HAL issues...can anyone offer anything??
[05:39] <dash> OK sorry, that was pretty ambiguous, you're right
[05:39] <dzer0> slavik: yep once again same result
[05:39] <vas> sloucher: I am having problems with my apt-get update.. it cannot find the sites for the packages
[05:39] <Megaqwerty>  !ubotu | dash
[05:39] <ubotu> dash: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[05:39] <dash> i want to remap caps lock to hyper.
[05:39] <Megaqwerty> I meant to send that to jaw...
[05:39] <Megaqwerty> eh
[05:39] <slavik> dzer0: what happens when you press Test button?
[05:39] <sloucher> vas, it's better to download the keys, but you don't "have" to.
[05:39] <dzer0> slavik: nothing happens unless it's set to the soundcard directly instead of ALSA
[05:39] <thespore> somehow i have an instance of apache running and i can't figure out how to kill it.. i have apache2ctl but i tried stopping it and it says it's not running
[05:39] <Megaqwerty> dash: oh...xmodmap might be what you're looking for...let me double check though
[05:39] <Nutubuntu> dash, would keytouch do what you're looking for ?
[05:40] <dash> Nutubuntu: Never heard of keytouch, let me see.
[05:40] <Megaqwerty> dash: yeah, xmodmap
[05:40] <Tiaka> sloucher: not the ubuntu i want to download but the repos?
[05:40] <vas> sloucher: now that I did that, when I sudo apt-get update it still gives me an error about failing to fetch all the packages.gz because it could nto resolve thehostname
[05:40] <Nitrove> hola
[05:40] <Nitrove> hi
[05:40] <Nitrove> hi
[05:40] <Fallen_> How do you boot Ubuntu from a disk?
[05:40] <dash> Megaqwerty: Man. After all these years, still xmodmap?
[05:40] <jaw> Here's the results from trying to apt-get install ssh2, ssh, and openssh-server http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30854/
[05:41] <Megaqwerty> dash: It's just the first thing that comes to mind...I haven't actually needed to do that.
[05:41] <Megaqwerty> dash: there may be another alternative
[05:41] <pacoloco> :s como desistalo programas de wine?
[05:41] <slavik> Fallen_: you'd have to read the motherboard/system manual to find out how to access the bios
[05:41] <Nitrove> hola
[05:41] <Joeh> Does anyone know how i can upgrade the samba package?
[05:41] <slavik> !es
[05:41] <Nutubuntu> !sp
[05:41] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[05:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:41] <jbitt> please can somebody help me with my HAL?
[05:41] <vas> sloucher: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30855/
[05:41] <sloucher> vas, not sure what the problem is? Just keep reading the guide page. There's a place there that talks about other repos places and making your own repo list
[05:41] <Joeh> !samba
[05:41] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:41] <Nitro> hi
[05:41] <alecwh> I just changed my user login name, "alec" to "alecwh". However, it didn't change my home folder name. How do I change the folder name? If I did it through root, would it be bad?
[05:42] <dash> Nutubuntu: I don't have any of the keyboards it lists.
[05:42] <sloucher> taiko, not sure what you want, sorry
[05:42] <Megaqwerty> dash: what version are you running
[05:42] <vas> sloucher: I have looked everywhere.. everything I try it keeps telling me failed to fetch ____
[05:42] <Megaqwerty> blast!
[05:42] <bulmer> alech  point it to the correct directory in /etc/passwd
[05:42] <vas> does anyone have any idea why it cannot resolve the hostname
[05:42] <slavik> alecwh: you need the /etc/passwd file :)
[05:42] <Megaqwerty> how do I keep messing up your names! sorry
[05:42] <vas> I am in the use.. should the hostname be us.archive.ubuntu
[05:42] <Megaqwerty> jaw: what version are you running?
[05:42] <dash> alecwh: try 'usermod alecwh -d /home/alecwh'
[05:42] <Megaqwerty> jaw: (of ubuntu)

[05:50] <vas> CRUD!
[05:50] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: hi
[05:50] <sloucher> vas, your sure your internet connection is ok? can you ping somewhere without problems?
[05:50] <vas> srry guys
[05:50] <vas> sloucher: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30858/
[05:50] <vas> ack? srry it was a slip... forgot what was on the keyboard
[05:50] <vas> i mean clipboard....
[05:50] <vas> srry
[05:50] <Nutubuntu> dash, there is xkeycaps, a frontend to xmodmap...
[05:50] <balleyne> arun: "I can able to hear the voice" - you mean a voice coming from somewhere OTHER than your microphone?
[05:50] <vas> sloucher: let me try that server w/ ping
[05:50] <DarkRamon> hello.... Im having some issues with cedega
[05:50] <joules> hey i uninstalled kde from my ubuntu (leaving gnome) .. i thought successfully but when i run amarak it shows the kde "mac" bar anyone knows how  to fix this
[05:50] <dash> Nutubuntu: yeah, straight outta 1998
[05:50] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, it says that the directory is still linked to /home/alec isntaead of /home/alecwh
[05:50] <DarkRamon> it passes all the tests but not the 3d acceleration
[05:51] <Megaqwerty> Joeh: hello?
[05:51] <jkjkjkhgg> I can't login now!
[05:51] <slavik> DarkRamon: install proper driver
[05:51] <jkjkjkhgg> (on another pC)
[05:51] <DarkRamon> it is installed
[05:51] <arun> sorry nt being clear, Yes, its not the mic voice, but the sound in general is working
[05:51] <arun> fine
[05:51] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: oh. well, log in as root then?
[05:51] <DarkRamon> glxinfo shows me that it is enabled the 3d acceleration
[05:51] <vas> it keeps telling me unknown host sloucher
[05:51] <Nutubuntu> 1998 was a very good year ... :)
[05:51] <balleyne> arun: ok, just making sure, hehe
[05:51] <CzarAlex> I'd like some BASH scripting help. I have a bash script that backs up a file weekly for me and puts a formatted date in the file name. Example: moo20070722.tar.gz . Id like to keep the last 4 weeks of backups (meaning 4 files) Could someone assist me in writing a script that will keep only the 4 most recent backups and drop the oldest one?
[05:51] <vas> sloucher: can you help me fix my hosts file.. it was raped when I tried to mess around w/ samba... I think taht might fix this...
[05:51] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, how? :P
[05:51] <slavik> DarkRamon: what does "glxinfo | grep direct" tell you? does it say "direct rendering: yes" ?
[05:51] <sloucher> vas, try this ping from that machine  ping us.archive.ubuntu.com - works great for me
[05:51] <jkjkjkhgg> I'm at the login screen
[05:51] <Megaqwerty> jkjkjkhgg: ln -s /home/alecwh /path/to/directory
[05:51] <dash> Nutubuntu: basically I was hoping that things has improved in the last 10 years
[05:51] <DarkRamon> slavik: yeah thats what it says slavik
[05:51] <DarkRamon> direct rendering: yes
[05:52] <vas> sloucher: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30859/
[05:52] <slavik> DarkRamon: please ask the cedega people as we don't have access to their closed software :)
[05:52] <vas> that is my /etc/hosts sloucher
[05:52] <DarkRamon> ok slavik.. thanks
[05:52] <arun> np :)
[05:52] <Joeh> ah qwerty, So there is no way i can install it?
[05:52] <jkjkjkhgg> Wait wait... Megaqwerty, I'm trying to switch my user from alec/, to alecwh/. (along with the home folder)
[05:52] <Joeh> I need it for Wine
[05:52] <jkjkjkhgg> I'm logged into the terminal
[05:52] <jkjkjkhgg> how do I change my user settings so the home dir is /alecwh?
[05:53] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: did you run that usermod command?
[05:53] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, no, give that to me
[05:53] <inoex135> does anyone now what software i can use to design database in ubuntu?
[05:53] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: usermod alecwh -d /home/alecwh
[05:53] <Megaqwerty> jkjkjkhgg: the command I gave you was to symbolically link /home/alec to a directory...sorry, I didn't understand.
[05:53] <slavik> inoex135: you want something similar to microsoft access?
[05:53] <dash> inoex135: hmm. you want something like ms access?
[05:53] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, it gives me: "user /home/alecwh does not exist"
[05:53] <sloucher> vas, what you showing me? I beginning to think you need to get a connection to the internet?
[05:53] <vas> sloucher: how can I fix up my hosts file
[05:53] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: oh, i guess i spelled it wrong
[05:53] <inoex135> slavik : something similar to power designer
[05:53] <slavik> inoex135: openoffice base (installed by default)
[05:53] <sloucher> vas, i take it your not on the machine now, chatting?
[05:53] <jbitt> @megaqwerty i passed "hald" and "hald start"...should i be doing something else?
[05:53] <slavik> power designer? never heard of it
[05:54] <dash> inoex135: you might also look at 'glom'
[05:54] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, that was spelled right, I think...
[05:54] <inoex135> glom?
[05:54] <jkjkjkhgg> :(
[05:54] <inoex135> is it good?
[05:54] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: i mean I gave you the wrong thing
[05:54] <slavik> is powerdesigner, like powerbuilder? (ie: crap)
[05:54] <dash> inoex135: i do all my database work from python
[05:54] <Megaqwerty> jbitt: as I said, the path is all I know
[05:54] <vas> sloucher: well it is ubuntuserver (THE UBUNTU-SERVER CHANNEL IS ALWAYS DEAD-QUIET AND REFERS ME TO HERE... so I now what you are going to say..) and I am accessing it through ssh from my mac laptop
[05:54] <dash> inoex135: so, i guess i'd have to ask "good for what"
[05:54] <jkjkjkhgg> dash, ok, what's the command I need? :)
[05:54] <inoex135> :D
[05:54] <vas> sloucher: it is a web-server.. and if orbstra.com is working then it is accessible from the outside workd...
[05:54] <vas> world**
[05:54] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: "usermod -d /home/alecwh alecwh" i think
[05:54] <younghacker> http://rainofkayos.kicks-ass.net/apache2-default/ can someone go to that link and tell me what happends?
[05:54] <inoex135> i need to design my database...
[05:55] <inoex135> not technical
[05:55] <inoex135> but analist
[05:55] <dash> inoex135: hmm. databases are usually technical, i thought
[05:55] <sloucher> vas, can that machine go out? you sure? So ssh to that machine, then ping one of the servers in your sources.list
[05:55] <jkjkjkhgg> ok, how do I get back to gnome, dash?
[05:55] <vas> sloucher: yeah teh ping is not working
[05:55] <vas> sloucher: it cannot find the host
[05:55] <slavik> younghacker: nothing
[05:55] <inoex135> i need to design it, and then i'll give it to my programmer
[05:56] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: how'd you get to where you are
[05:56] <vas> sloucher: therefore I think that it is a problem with the HOSTS file...
[05:56] <younghacker> dam
[05:56] <vas> he
[05:56] <slavik> inoex135: pencil and paper?
[05:56] <sloucher> vas, yeah, there you go, so work on networking - I bet it's dns
[05:56] <jkjkjkhgg> ALT CNTRL F1
[05:56] <dash> inoex135: ctrl-alt-f7 then
[05:56] <inoex135> slavik: something like that
[05:56] <younghacker> slavik: there is no error messages? or 404 ?
[05:56] <slavik> inoex135: I mean can't you use a pencil and paper?
[05:56] <Nitro> hola
[05:56] <slavik> younghacker: just connecting (did wait for the timeout)
[05:56] <wckdkl0wn> did they ever add suport for viewing webcams on aim or yahoo yet?
[05:56] <vas> sloucher: where should I go from here to fix that
[05:56] <inoex135> slavik : i can hehehe..
[05:56] <vas> sloucher: do you have any suggestions for my hosts file?
[05:56] <slavik> inoex135: so do it ...
[05:57] <younghacker> hmm
[05:57] <vas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30859/ sloucher
[05:57] <dash> inoex135: hmm. if your programmer can't design a database maybe you need a better one ;)
[05:57] <jkjkjkhgg> cool, that worked perfectly! Thansk dash!
[05:57] <dash> jkjkjkhgg: Hooray!!
[05:57] <slavik> inoex135: does the said programmer have any dba training at all? (does he know what normal forms are)
[05:57] <jbitt> is there any sort of log I can look at that can help me figure out why my HAL isn't initializing?????
[05:57] <jkjkjkhgg> thanks muchly!
[05:57] <jkjkjkhgg> bye!
[05:57] <sloucher> vas, what's in your /etc/resolv.conf file - you should have a nameserver in there
[05:57] <dash> well i guess it's xmodmap for me
[05:57] <younghacker> im using dynDNS and it's supposed to bind a domain that domain name to my dynamic ip
[05:57] <inoex135> i need to design like uml
[05:57] <slavik> yes, inoex135 ... I wouldn't mind having a good job :)
[05:57] <Lekrem> hey everybody, how can i make a control theme?
[05:57] <younghacker> it still must only be local because i can access from my browser
[05:58] <dash> inoex135: man, that's usually a bad idea, unless you have like >100 programmers :)
[05:58] <slavik> younghacker: try that address
[05:58] <vas> resolv.conf is empty sloucher
[05:58] <dash> Lekrem: what's a control theme
[05:58] <inoex135> hem.. ic
[05:58] <younghacker> slavik: try the ip?
[05:58] <slavik> younghacker: fine
[05:58] <vas> younghacker: make sure that the dynDNS client is set to send the EXTERNAL IP bypassing the proxy....
[05:58] <slavik> younghacker: msg it ...
[05:58] <vas> younghacker: so it does not send te local IP.. it will send your house IP...
[05:58] <jbitt> anyone know where HAL logfiles are?

[05:59] <slavik> ooh a fellow new yorker, where you from? manhattan?
[05:59] <sloucher> vas, there you go, do you know a dns serve you can use - put a line in there like "nameserver 192.168.1.1" with a good dns server name
[05:59] <vas> younghacker: your recods at dyndns.org should tell you the same IP as ip-chicken.org or something
[05:59] <Lekrem> dash: a visual theme pretty much
[05:59] <vas> younghacker: it should not be 192.168.1.whatever
[05:59] <dash> jbitt: /var/log/daemon.log gets stuff from hald, usually
[05:59] <dash> Lekrem: theme for what
[05:59] <younghacker> is that the edit it the hosts file? i set that domain name to be equal to 127.0.0.1
[05:59] <Lekrem> dash: gnome
[05:59] <vas> sloucher: wel I have static IP's set up on all my comps and I set this one up as 192.168.1.204 .. should it be in there
[05:59] <younghacker> right 192.168 can't access the net without NAt
[06:00] <vas> younghacker: and set up port forwarding
[06:00] <dash> Lekrem: oh. well, did you read the docs on metacity themes
[06:00] <Nitrove> czxc
[06:00] <slavik> younghacker: router set to drop icmp packets?
[06:00] <Lekrem> dash: is it online or on the local help file?
[06:00] <younghacker> may be
[06:00] <younghacker> i think i set it like that
[06:00] <vas> .... nt that silly DDNS thing on your router.. or that DMZ thing...
[06:00] <jbitt> ty dash lemme take a look
[06:01] <dash> Lekrem: online
[06:01] <wckdkl0wn> did they ever add suport for viewing webcams on aim or yahoo yet?
[06:01] <zerokill88> Ok can someone help out. I am making this script that will search the computer for a file specified , then it asks if you want to delete it, and if you choose too, it finds all the files you want deleted and plugs it into rm with a pipe.But my question is can you use a variable again form one if statement to another elif?  here those code    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30861/
[06:01] <vas> sloucher: so in resolv.conf should I just put the IP I am supposed to have on this computer
[06:01] <younghacker> is there a online doc on setting up apache2 to use dynDNS
[06:01] <Lekrem> dash: thx
[06:01] <preaction> zerokill88, why didn't you use GNU find with the -delete predicate? or with the -exec predicate?
[06:02] <jbitt> dash: just alot of garbage about dhclient :(
[06:02] <younghacker> because i am not familiar with port forwarding and the ip mappings i need to accomplish
[06:02] <rhoruns> hey, can someone help me with my Ubuntu interface?
[06:02] <zerokill88> preaction not realy familiar with that
[06:02] <vas> alright sloucher so after I put my needed IP in resolv.conf I did sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:02] <zerokill88> preaction fairly new to bash
[06:03] <balleyne> younghacker: I've set up dynDNS and portforwarding for a ubuntu machine at home, but I missed the first half of the conversation.. not sure what it is you're trying to accomplish
[06:03] <vas> younghacker: if you wait bout 10 minutes I can personally help you set this up.. I went through all your bs when I tried to set it up bout a week ago :-)
[06:03] <younghacker> cool both of you guys,, i willingly accept the help
[06:03] <younghacker> i need it
[06:03] <vas> what should my resolv.conf file say? on an ubuntu-sever
[06:03] <younghacker> thanks
[06:03] <vas> younghacker: ya just give mea  lil to fix my mes and ill help you sort out yours lol
[06:04] <younghacker> no worries man
[06:04] <vas> younghacker: listen to that other guy though, knowledge is power.. and you can't get enough
[06:04] <rhoruns> is anyone here highly experienced with customizing interfaces? :P
[06:04] <vas> younghacker: unless ur a commy
[06:04] <rhoruns> i'm having a problem with my windows
[06:04] <younghacker> i agree
[06:04] <younghacker> lol

[06:04] <vas> younghacker: lol
[06:04] <joules> hey so i uninstalled kde from my gnome and now when i launch amarok it starts with the mac-kde bar on top anyone knows ho wto fix this?
[06:04] <younghacker> =)
[06:04] <DarkRamon> younghacker: just set the name of the server on the virtual hosts
[06:04] <DarkRamon> and download the dyn software
[06:05] <vas> but can someone tell me what I should fix in my hosts file and what I should have in my resolv.conf file... Host file = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30859/
[06:05] <younghacker> i havn't configured any virtual hosts yet
[06:05] <DarkRamon> and make sure you have a public ip
[06:05] <sloucher> vas, it should list some nameservers - do you know the ip of a dns server? It's probably your isp's nameserver. Do you know the number?
[06:05] <MistaED> oh dear, gnome is a bit buggy today, it's just hanging here with the splash screen at restricted-manager :S is it a known regression update?
[06:05] <preaction> zerokill88, some examples of using find: http://www.athabascau.ca/html/depts/compserv/webunit/HOWTO/find.htm
[06:05] <younghacker> i was looking into that, is that why my httpd.conf file is bare?
[06:05] <zerokill88> ok thanks preaction
[06:05] <DarkRamon> /etc/apache2/sites-available
[06:05] <DarkRamon> look there younghacker
[06:05] <vas> sloucher: it shouldn't be 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.1 like I set all my other computers to use because I am settign up static... should it?
[06:06] <Ikro> hello to all..  =)
[06:06] <Zylstra> Hello. I hooked an older monitor up to my Ubuntu computer, and it wont work with the resulution. How do I change it?
[06:06] <bruenig> !fixres | Zylstra
[06:06] <ubotu> Zylstra: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:06] <younghacker> There is only default in that directory
[06:06] <younghacker> is that it?
[06:06] <vas> sloucher: and I have found that I have no internet connection... ping does not work at all.. it cannot resolve the host name
[06:06] <DarkRamon> Zylstra:  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:06] <rhoruns> can someone help me? when ever a program opens a new window, it doesn't bring itself to the front. it just shoves window behind all of my other windows.
[06:06] <bruenig> alt+tab
[06:07] <bruenig> rhoruns, are you using beryl?
[06:07] <rhoruns> yes
[06:07] <bruenig> rhoruns, yeah does that
[06:07] <sloucher> vas, oh man, it's really hard for me to know you network settings, lol. Look on a machine that works and use that number. You're looking for a nameserver ip address.
[06:07] <rhoruns> awww :(
[06:07] <rhoruns> bruenig, is there an option to change this?
[06:07] <bruenig> #beryl
[06:07] <rhoruns> oh ok.
[06:07] <rhoruns> thanks
[06:07] <Zylstra> how would I go about doing that without having to switch to another monitor?
[06:08] <balleyne> younghacker: sorry, trying to catch up with the conversation... you're trying to setup a web server with no luck accessing it from the outside so far (I tried) - but can you access it locally on your network? ie. 127.0.01 from your machine, or your local ip from another local machine?
[06:08] <vas> sloucher: alright, but I'm pretty sure when you have static IP's you are supposed to always use 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.1 as the nameservers... mabye.. but to anyone that knows.. is this where I put them?
[06:08] <pppoe_dude> hi, i am trying to install vmware-server from the canonical repos, but dpkg apparently stop doing anything and waits after i agree to the license agreement... any ideas?
[06:08] <vas> sloucher: yes my DNS server on the machine I am on currently (not the linux box) is those two IP's I sent earlier
[06:08] <sloucher> vas, no, that's not right. where you get that number?
[06:08] <younghacker> yes i can access it locally on this box,, let me check and see if im still logged on M$ in the living room i havn't checked from another node on my net
[06:09] <vas> sloucher: in my TCP/IP settings I have under DNS servers: 4.2.2.2, 4.2.2.1
[06:09] <sloucher> vas, oh wait, yeah that will work. That's a dns server
[06:09] <vas> sloucher: that is because I give all my comps static IP's
[06:09] <balleyne> younghacker: yeah, that's the first step... that way you can tell if the problem is with your router, or with your machine (ie. is your machine accepting requests on port 80?)
[06:09] <vas> sloucher:  K I will try now
[06:10] <sloucher> vas, so put this line in /etc/resolve.conf "nameserver 4.2.2.2". Save it. Try to ping out.
[06:10] <younghacker> ok ,, im booting up now
[06:10] <younghacker> may take a while thats a sucky box...
[06:10] <savetheWorld> FYI - If COMCAST is your ISP they block DNS calls to 4.2.2.2
[06:10] <mewshi> is there a way that i can take all the file in a directory out of all the subfolders and put them in the root folder?
[06:11] <vas> sloucher: I need two name servers.. that one and 4.2.2.1 .. how would I format taht
[06:11] <balleyne> younghacker: hehe
[06:11] <jaw> younghacker: I'm also going through the same setup for dyndns. I'm *just* starting it, but I'll be listening in on what you're doing
[06:11] <sloucher> vas, just two lines. One above the other.
[06:11] <vas> IT WORKS
[06:11] <vas> IT WORKS
[06:11] <vas> IT WORKS
[06:11] <younghacker> cool man no problem
[06:11] <vas> sloucher: THAT WAS IT
[06:12] <younghacker> maybe we can work it out together
[06:12] <LadyNikon> someone is happy
[06:12] <younghacker> lol @ vas
[06:12] <sloucher> vas, see I know what i'm doing?
[06:12] <vas> sloucher: O i never doubted u man!
[06:12] <vas> sloucher: but my next test... see if apt-get update works....
[06:12] <sloucher> vas, right
[06:12] <younghacker> oh you fixes his app?,,, wow
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: if not, I will try a restart
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: IT WORKS
[06:13] <younghacker> where were u last week ... lol
[06:13] <rhoruns> lol, no one's alive in #beryl :P
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: you're my hero
[06:13] <sloucher> vas, NO RESTART, it's linux
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: times 10
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: tru tru
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: it works tho anyways...! :-) :-) :-)
[06:13] <usr13> Is there a way to import thunderbird settings from a usb drive to a new installation of thunderbird?
[06:13] <vas> sloucher: wait it mentions that I need a public key
[06:13] <wckdkl0wn> did they ever add suport for viewing webcams on aim or yahoo yet?
[06:13] <usr13> (I copied all user files to the thumb drive)
[06:14] <vas> I'm going to get one sloucher
[06:14] <sloucher> vas, so your going to put snort on this server? That's hard stuff. It'll keep you busy
[06:14] <balleyne> usr13: yeah, really easy!
[06:14] <balleyne> usr13: you should just be able to copy the contents of the profile folder to replace the contents of the profile folder on the destination machine
[06:15] <balleyne> usr13: the name of the folder will be something crpytic... and you'll want to copy it to replace the contents of an equally cryptic user profile folder in ~/.mozilla-thunderbird, I believe
[06:15] <balleyne> usr13: does that make any sense?
[06:15] <usr13> balleyne, sort of... let me look
[06:16] <balleyne> usr13: ok, do you need help finding the data on the thumb drive? did you copy the Applicata Data from Windows XP or something?
[06:16] <vas> sloucher: and to make it harder, I am setting it up so that when it logs to a file, it disperses an e-mail.. when my desktop gets the e-mail, it sends me a text-message specifying the contents of the e-mail
[06:16] <usr13> I see     .thunderbird/profiles.ini
[06:16] <usr13> Would that be it?
[06:16] <vas> sloucher: and whenever an SSH connection is attempted/ made it sends me a text
[06:17] <gcarrillo> does anybody know if NetworkManager has a log file?
[06:17] <balleyne> usr13: where, source or destination?
[06:17] <vas> sloucher: I have read up on snort alot and it is amazing what you can do
[06:17] <usr13> balleyne, source
[06:17] <sloucher> vas, very ambitious, that sounds fun
[06:17] <vas> sloucher: just have it log to a file, then a seperate app sends an e-mail when certain changes occurr to that file
[06:17] <younghacker> ok it's definately only running locally , my other machine produces error when accessing the url
[06:17] <CWO4Mann> ne1 setup mythtv under ubuntu?  i'm getting a permissions problem
[06:17] <balleyne> usr13: is there anything else in the .thunderbird directory? it should be right beside the profiles.ini file...
[06:17] <younghacker> should i try the ip as well?
[06:17] <usr13> Actually, I copied .thunderbird over to /home/myname
[06:17] <sloucher> vas, you get that from a book?
[06:17] <vas> YES I FOUND SNORT
[06:18] <pppoe_dude> any ideas why apt-get gets stuck at "setting up vmware-server"? i didn't get a screen asking for a serial
[06:18] <usr13> balleyne, Yes, lots
[06:18] <usr13> I'll see
[06:18] <jaw> fyi: everyone, if you're having trouble with apt-get install or update, it may be becasue of the server you selected for updates. I had the   default US one and it wouldn't work. I picked a random other one (japan) and it worked.
[06:18] <younghacker> point to point protocol over ethernet
[06:18] <bruenig> rhoruns, in beryl manager, in the general options, there is an option called focus stealing prevention, set it to none
[06:18] <usr13> I see  Default\ User/
[06:18] <rhoruns> ok. :)
[06:18] <balleyne> usr13: hmmm... well, open the profiles.ini file, it should tell you where the profile folders are - you'll want the contents from inside those folders
[06:19] <xlorm> hey guys, what's up?
[06:19] <sloucher> ppoe_dude, i believe vmware-server makes you read a contract and agree thing
[06:19] <balleyne> usr13: in profiles.ini, there should be a line "Path=nac5se1u.default" (except your path will be different) - that's the folder you want
[06:19] <pppoe_dude> sloucher, ya i do that fine but after that it does nothing
[06:19] <xlorm> #porn
[06:20] <rhoruns> woot! it worked! thank you so much! :D
[06:20] <bruenig> !ot | xlorm
[06:20] <ubotu> xlorm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:20] <Ashfire908> i have to install a gui with the server version if i want a gui, right?
[06:20] <balleyne> younghacker: so you tried accessing the machine from XP by it's ip? (ie. 192.168.whatever) - that probably means your machine isn't listening on port 80 then...
[06:20] <rhoruns> bruenig get's +5 brownie points from me. :D
[06:20] <pppoe_dude> im gonna try  a reboot
[06:20] <vas> hey I get this error when I run snort... something about an open pcap and I have installed open pcap but I do not think that will fix it: -> error message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30864/
[06:20] <sparks_> Good Evening
[06:21] <rhoruns> hi sparks :)
[06:21] <sloucher> ppoe_dude, You have a deb package for vmware-server? Maybe you can try to download a tar file from the vmware people themselves?
[06:21] <vas> o wait, I take that back.. I installed open pcap when my internt was not working... haha
[06:21] <younghacker> no i havn't by ip yet i am now
[06:22] <sparks_> Have any of you had great success with evolution as an e-mail client?
[06:23] <wctraxler> yes
[06:23] <wctraxler> i have
[06:23] <sloucher> boo evolution - thunderbird I prefer
[06:23] <memo__> bruenig: hey, whats the purpose of stealing detection?
[06:23] <bruenig> memo__, what
[06:23] <bguebert> is evolution suppoesed to be like a drop in outlook replacement?
[06:23] <memo__> bruenig: hey, whats the purpose of stealing detection?--in beryl
[06:23] <sparks_> I have been looking at the calendar feature.  What I would like to do is have my desktop emulate my laptop.
[06:23] <bruenig> memo__, you mean stealing prevention
[06:24] <balleyne> younghacker: let me know what happens
[06:24] <younghacker> no i can't access the site by ip or url
[06:24] <balleyne> ok, one sec...
[06:24] <usr13> balleyne,  I think I found it:  .thunderbird/default.1rs
[06:24] <sloucher> bguebert, yeah, I think so - it's ok
[06:24] <bruenig> memo__, it is a setting that allows you to customize where new windows open, if you prefer them to be in the foreground or background, etc.
[06:24] <bguebert> I am used to thunderbird and I never really tried evolution but It seems like a strong competitor
[06:25] <nicholaspaul> Q: once i've created a user, do I have to restart anything to make that user able to login from another station on the intranet?
[06:25] <bguebert> does evolution do anything that I would be missing in thunderbird?
[06:25] <balleyne> usr13: ok, one sec...
[06:25] <jaw> younghacker: have you set up ddclient yet to maintain your current  IP on the machine? (sorry if i missed out on this already)
[06:25] <memo__> bruenig: oh..ok...thx...i have a problem with beryl and firefox..firefox turn black and crash!..
[06:25] <younghacker> hmmm no i havn't
[06:25] <sparks_> Thunderbird has a better spam filtration system than evolution.  But when in business you need a good calendar system.  The issue is relating with those evil ones that still you MS Outlook
[06:26] <bruenig> memo__, that is a problem with firefox, not beryl
[06:26] <thetaleofcody> how does on uninstall a program with feisty?
[06:26] <wctraxler> any body gaot a idea how too access the romming  for the wireless but i got it too work on the manual at stic ip here is some info on what i got any terimnal ideas or codes too set
[06:26] <younghacker> is it aptable or do i have to go back to the dynDNS site?
[06:26] <jaw> younghacker: you'll probably want to get that if your IP   is dynamic, that way it'll stay up to date with dyndns
[06:26] <nicholaspaul> thetaleofcody: use Synaptic
[06:26] <younghacker> cool
[06:26] <bruenig> memo__, whenever any app crashes in beryl, it greys it out
[06:26] <jaw> younghacker: I got it from dyndns.com/support/clinets
[06:26] <thetaleofcody> yeah...how exactly would you do that...I'm really new to this
[06:26] <jaw> didn't see it in apt-get
[06:26] <balleyne> usr13: it should have files like 'abook.mab' 'cert8.db', 'cookies.txt', and more importantly your 'Mail' folder (which should have your mail in it
[06:26] <wctraxler> iwconfig
[06:26] <wctraxler> lo        no wireless extensions.

[06:27] <b123> can someone help me network in ubuntu?
[06:27] <b123> my share files won't show up.
[06:27] <bruenig> !paste | wctraxler learn to use the pastebin first
[06:27] <nicholaspaul> thetaleofcody: on your top menu bar, click System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[06:27] <ubotu> wctraxler learn to use the pastebin first: 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)
[06:27] <memo__> bruenig: oh..ok..firefox turn black...and i must restart firefox...i though that was a problem with bery...because when i use gnome, that never happened!
[06:27] <thetaleofcody> nicholaspaul okay...got that
[06:27] <nicholaspaul> thetaleofcody: then search for the app you dont want anymore, and right click it, selecting remove
[06:27] <balleyne> usr13: you'll want to copy the contents of that folder to the equivalent folder (ie. the profile folder) in ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/sdfkaj.default (whatever it's called)
[06:27] <bruenig> memo__, right because it doesn't turn black when it crashes, but it still crashes
[06:27] <usr13> balleyne, Ok, what do I do with those files?
[06:27] <astro76> !synaptic | thetaleofcody
[06:27] <ubotu> thetaleofcody: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:27] <thetaleofcody> nicholaspaul: okay, thanks
[06:28] <nicholaspaul> thetaleofcody: Synaptic is great cos it wont let you uninstall stuff by accident :)
[06:28] <usr13> balleyne, Yes, I see the Mail folder.
[06:28] <thetaleofcody> thats cool
[06:28] <bruenig> uninstall stuff by accident? how would you do that?
[06:28] <balleyne> younghacker: dyndns is really the second step, first you need to get it working on the local network, then you can worry about dyndns for the world beyond your home
[06:28] <bruenig> if anything synaptic makes it more likely that you would uninstall something by accident
[06:28] <younghacker> i agree
[06:29] <nicholaspaul> bruenig: i was thinking of little files that can mess up other stuff.
[06:29] <wctraxler> ok
[06:29] <younghacker> i've downloaded the tar zip and it's there should whats the next step i should take to make it accessible to my local netowrk
[06:29] <nicholaspaul> as in "I uninstalled Donkey_killer but now Firefox doesnt work."
[06:29] <balleyne> younghacker: ok, here's a really easy way to test if your machine is listening on port 80 or not
[06:29] <javes> ] /exit
[06:29] <sparks_> Any network admin on here?
[06:29] <younghacker> <--net admin Windows though
[06:29] <bruenig> nicholaspaul, the cli tells you the same what something will  break
[06:30] <balleyne> younghacker: nc 192.168.yourlocal.ip 80
[06:30] <nicholaspaul> cli?
[06:30] <sloucher> sparks_: just ask sparks
[06:30] <ferronica> how to do port forwarding in ubuntu fiesty fawn gnome ?
[06:30] <bruenig> nicholaspaul, apt-get, aptitude
[06:30] <balleyne> younghacker: run that command, if it hangs that's *good*, if it says UNKNOWN that's bad, lol (you can test it on another port that should be closed, like 81, if you want to see a failed result)
[06:30] <nicholaspaul> oh right. Still, for a noobie Synaptic is great.
[06:30] <burner> ferronica: port forwarding is typically done through your router
[06:30] <nicholaspaul> its great for non noobs too :D
[06:31] <balleyne> usr13: so, you've found the folder with Mail, now you've gotta copy it to the thunderbird profile folder on the destination machine - any luck yet?
[06:31] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know if I need to restart anything to make new users useable?
[06:31] <ferronica> burner: ya i have ADSL MODEM
[06:31] <vas> alrighty younghacker did you fix that problem i'm free...
[06:31] <nicholaspaul> I just made a user but she cant login on the network.
[06:31] <usr13> balleyne, Should I set up the account first?  (before copying everything over?)  Or, not?
[06:31] <ferronica> burner: can you please help me out , i am using DELUGE to download torrents
[06:31] <burner> ferronica: is it a modem/router?  do you have an ip of something like 192.168.0.2.  if so, try to login to http://192.168.0.1 and see if you can administer the router
[06:31] <wctraxler> na ya should not have too but it would be a good idea
[06:32] <younghacker> i would call that hanging.. lol i entered that command about 3 seconds after u told me
[06:32] <younghacker> waiting...
[06:32] <sparks_> Ferronica what was your question about port forwarding?
[06:32] <sloucher> nicholaspaul, no you don't need to restart anything - that's generally true with everything linux
[06:32] <ferronica> burner: okay
[06:32] <wctraxler> for a new user nicholas
[06:32] <nicholaspaul> sloucher: oh ok. Thx :)
[06:32] <wctraxler> no but it don't hurt
[06:32] <ferronica> sparks: how to do port forwarding in ubuntu fiesty fawn gnome ?
[06:32] <nicholaspaul> wctraxler: oh ok. is there a command i can use?
[06:32] <sloucher> don't help either ( usually)
[06:32] <burner> ferronica: i'm probably unfamiliar with your router, but I could get you logged into it if you need... what is your ip address?  right click your network manager and click connection information to find out
[06:32] <ferronica> burner: after that
[06:32] <balleyne> younghacker: ok, Ctrl+C to exit... that should mean that it is listening then... you can try running it on port 81 to see what a fail looks like to make sure
[06:32] <nicholaspaul> lol
[06:33] <younghacker> I believe i have that option on my netgear
[06:33] <sparks_> Ferronica look in private chat
[06:33] <bathat_> i've been trying to recover my partition table for a few days now
[06:33] <wctraxler> not know at this time
[06:33] <bathat_>  testdisk doesn't pick anything up anymore and it seems pretty bleak
[06:33] <burner> ferronica: you get logged in?  if so, look for port forwarding :)
[06:33] <nicholaspaul> if you're loggin in ubuntu from windows, you shouldnt need admin rights should you?
[06:33] <bathat_> i never wrote the data to disk but i do have the partition information, so i was wondering if it's possible to somehow use this to force testdisk to reconstruct the partitions...
[06:33] <balleyne> younghacker: that's strange that it wouldn't be accessible from your XP machine though... are you sure apache is running? 'sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to make sure (I think)
[06:33] <balleyne> usr13: umm, maybe.. I would checked you ~/.mozilla-thunderbird folder first, to see if there's a profile folder yet or not
[06:33] <OrgulloKmoore> Does anyone know of a way I can save can convert an audio file into a video file (say avi, for example) to just a jpeg picture with an audio stream?
[06:33] <ferronica> burner: there is tab virtual server list in my modem
[06:34] <OrgulloKmoore> -can save* :(
[06:34] <burner> nicholaspaul: define "loggin in" ssh? http? ftp? vnc? nx?
[06:34] <sloucher> nicholaspaul, you shouldn't need admin rights no
[06:34] <burner> ferronica: good work :)
[06:34] <nicholaspaul> burner: Login thru Network Places.
[06:34] <ferronica> burner: and i am using ip 192.455.3.55
[06:34] <balleyne> user13: if there isn't, you've got two options: 1) open thunderbird just so it automatically creates a profile folder, then close it and replace the contents of that folder with your profile on the USB drive; 2) just paste the entire profile folder to the ~/.mozilla-thunderbird folder, and then edit ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/profiles.ini to point to your profile folder
[06:34] <nicholaspaul> i can login with my regular user (admin)
[06:34] <younghacker> i get this message when i restart the server :
[06:34] <sparks_> ferronica what type of modem?
[06:34] <ferronica> burner: okay let me tell you what options it showing me
[06:34] <younghacker> apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[06:34] <burner> nicholaspaul: in that case, it depends on the security of the files and if the user has access or not... you don't need to be admin by any menas
[06:35] <OrgulloKmoore> Does anyone know of a way I can convert an audio file into a video file (say avi, for example) to just a jpeg picture with an audio stream?
[06:35] <OrgulloKmoore> (to upload to Youtube)
[06:35] <balleyne> usr13: both work, though I personally prefered just copy and pasting instead of editing profiles.ini, but editing the file is really easy - you just want to change the "Path=" line to point to your profile folder
[06:35] <nicholaspaul> burner: oh i see. Where do I check off which files can be accessed by the new user? Basically, its a whole folder (pictures).
[06:35] <burner> OrgulloKmoore: with a black screen for video?  where's your video come from?
[06:35] <burner> OrgulloKmoore: check out avidemux
[06:35] <usr13> balleyne, It's not wanting me to copy, (permissions)
[06:35] <OrgulloKmoore> burner> just a picture for video, or perhaps several pictures
[06:35] <usr13> But it's same user name...?
[06:35] <ferronica> sparks: its utstarcom
[06:35] <burner> nicholaspaul: right click, properties
[06:35] <cellofellow> Is there a way to change my NIC, which is currently eth1, to eth0?
[06:36] <balleyne> younghacker: hmmm...
[06:36] <usr13> It is same user name yet I don't have permissions to read and copy ?
[06:36] <ferronica> sparks: model number UT-304R2
[06:36] <younghacker> lol
[06:36] <burner> cellofellow: for why? that seems an odd request
[06:36] <younghacker> bad ?
[06:36] <OrgulloKmoore> thanks bunches, burner
[06:36] <sparks_> Ferronica cable or dsl?
[06:36] <younghacker> sounds bad
[06:36] <usr13> balleyne,  I copied it over as root, that may be why.
[06:36] <ferronica> sparks: ADSL
[06:36] <younghacker> why is it using 127.0.1.1 instead of 127.0.0.1
[06:36] <balleyne> usr13: to read and copy what? you may need to 'chown' the folder to make sure you own it..
[06:36] <usr13> balleyne, (when I made the backups)
[06:36] <nicholaspaul> burner: so for 'Others' (under permissions) it should read 'Read and Write' ?
[06:36] <cellofellow> burner: just because. I think it'll help me understand how all Linux handles NICs.
[06:37] <OrgulloKmoore> I realize it's bad style to upload a video with just pictures and audio to youtube, burner, but my camera was stolen and I've *got* to respond to this guy! lol
[06:37] <balleyne> younghacker: yeah, that's what I was wondering... I don't know what the means *shrugs*..
[06:37] <younghacker> my postgresql runs locally but it uses 5433 as the port i believe
[06:37] <sparks_> ferronica - so on your modem there is no tab for port forwarding?
[06:37] <aschwo> hey guys, anyone have any experience getting ubuntu to recognize a sata hd on a gigabyte 965p-ds3 motherboard?
[06:37] <younghacker> lol
[06:37] <burner> nicholaspaul: sure... you added that user to the samba users list via "sudo smbpasswd -a username" right?
[06:37] <jaw> younghacker: what was the *.kicks-ass.org url you had from dyndns? i'll do a traceroute and see if it looks like mine
[06:37] <younghacker> ok
[06:37] <nicholaspaul> burner: no, i just added the user with the User Groups GUI
[06:37] <younghacker> i got that fron dyndns
[06:37] <burner> !samba | nicholaspaul
[06:37] <ubotu> nicholaspaul: 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
[06:37] <balleyne> usr13: here, this might be more helpful to you as my response time is sort of slow - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=366289
[06:38] <nicholaspaul> burner: AHHHHH of course.....LOL thanks mate! [slaps forehead![
[06:38] <younghacker> thats real smart
[06:38] <CyberMad> how to make running software over wine faster? i tried running a simple dictionary software (windows) over wine, but for 1st time it took very long time, but the next quite fast..
[06:38] <sloucher> cellofellow, ifconfig is the command to do that on the command line
[06:38] <balleyne> usr13: just ignore the XP part, you've found the files on your USB drive anyways
[06:38] <younghacker> comparing traceroute to the domains
[06:38] <burner> nicholaspaul: it's simply "sudo smbpasswd -a username" to add a new user :)
[06:38] <younghacker> <--would have never thought to do that
[06:38] <nicholaspaul> burner: oh. . . . . right.. . . . .i knew that... :S Thanks again :)
[06:38] <burner> nicholaspaul: np, have a good one
[06:39] <harrison> Okay, I have a serious problem trying to install Xubuntu.
[06:39] <balleyne> usr13: but I'll still try and walk you through, whatever you think is easier
[06:39] <usr13> balleyne, Should I just cp -a    (all in that directory?)
[06:39] <Ashfire908> how do i install a gui onto a server
[06:39] <nicholaspaul> burner thx !
[06:39] <usr13> balleyne, Or just file by file?
[06:39] <nicholaspaul> burner: U2
[06:40] <cellofellow> sloucher: will the man page tell me?
[06:40] <balleyne> usr13: you should be able to copy everything at once, though you might need to 'cp -r' to copy entire directories
[06:40] <usr13> balleyne, I'm pretty knowledgable so.. which ever is best.
[06:40] <usr13> balleyne, ok.
[06:40] <balleyne> usr13: though, to be honest, I just used nautilus *shrugs*
[06:40] <metalac> hey guys
[06:40] <sloucher> cellofellow, that's it, that's a hard man page though - there's a gui to do that stuff called network
[06:40] <astro76> Ashfire908, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:40] <harrison> I boot to the Xubuntu CD fine, but after the detection of the keyboard, I get horizantal black bars everywhere.
[06:41] <cellofellow> sloucher: Xubuntu gui here. :(
[06:41] <ferronica_>  sparks: Private Port = ?

[06:41] <metalac> i have 2 kernels on my box now, after installation of nvidia drivers.  one has a working module for my wireless card and the other one (new one) doesn't, anyone knows why?
[06:41] <sloucher> cellofellow, yeah, i think that will have it
[06:41] <harrison> It is some AGP card I pulled from a Compaq.
[06:41] <cellofellow> sloucher: network-admin, that program?
[06:41] <MrWGW-> would any of you happen to know how to change the start menu icon in GNOME?
[06:41] <harrison> I also tried a PCI card that I pulled from somewhere, and it didn't work either.
[06:41] <sloucher> cellofellow, yeah, that's it
[06:41] <balleyne> usr13: just opened up two file browsers, one in each thunderbird profile directory over, and I wiped the blank one on the destination machine, replacing the contents with that of the source (can't remember if chown was necessary or not, though I don't think it was... but I was copying from XP)
[06:42] <CyberMad> i tried to mount a shared folder (windows) on ubuntu use cifs, ok i create a folder than mount to it.. but why there is icon like hard drive of shared folder?
[06:43] <balleyne> younghacker: I just tried to restart my server, and it gave me the same message actually, BUT it said "using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName"
[06:43] <cellofellow> sloucher: nothing in there about what I want to do.
[06:43] <harrison> Should I pull the PCI card from yet another computer, and try it?
[06:43] <younghacker> really?
[06:43] <younghacker> ::confused look::
[06:43] <sloucher> cellofellow, what you want to do?
[06:43] <balleyne> younghacker: hmm hmm...
[06:44] <aschwo> anyone had any experience with gigabyte 965p mobos/
[06:44] <cellofellow> sloucher: change eth1 to eth0, which doesn't exist. It got messed up when I changed NICs.
[06:44] <aschwo> specifically getting sata hd's to be recognized
[06:44] <cellofellow> sloucher: sounds more like kernel or udev level stuff.
[06:44] <younghacker> thats so strange , but ur server is working correctly?
[06:44] <balleyne> younghacker: yep
[06:44] <younghacker> lol
[06:45] <zbadone> any channels on Ruby?
[06:45] <zbadone> tried ruby, rubytalk
[06:45] <balleyne> younghacker: hmm... but if you type 127.0.0.1 into your browser on the server, it works?
[06:45] <sloucher> cellofellow, oh I get you - the network program doesn't look like it does that
[06:45] <zbadone> no one there
[06:45] <younghacker> actually yes
[06:45] <younghacker> lol
[06:45] <younghacker> let me check again
[06:45] <cellofellow> sloucher: no, it relies on the eth* stuff, not controlling it.
[06:46] <sloucher> cellofellow, you would edit the /etc/network/interfaces files
[06:46] <cellofellow> tried that
[06:46] <rhoruns> hey guys, when i tried to install some updates, it gave me this error: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:46] <dennisharrison> hello hello everyone
[06:46] <usr13> balleyne, Yes, that worked.. Got it.  THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.  (It's my wife's computer).
[06:46] <rhoruns> i tried to do that command, but it told me i needed superuser privileges
[06:46] <CyberMad> why i can't set the screen resolution of my ubuntu to 1024x768 ? i only can use 800x600, but when i use this PC on windows, i can set the screen resolution to 1024x768, how to fix it?
[06:46] <sloucher> cellofellow, not thats it. You have to restart the network after editing
[06:46] <balleyne> usr13: np! glad I could help!
[06:46] <younghacker> yes sir that definately brings me to my Index home page for apache
[06:46] <cellofellow> sloucher: yes, I know.
[06:46] <usr13> balleyne, and was an old RH9 machine from ... I dono... about 4 years ago.
[06:46] <younghacker> lol let me try 127.0.1.1
[06:46] <sloucher> cellofellow, so what happened after the restart?
[06:47] <balleyne> younghacker: lol k
[06:47] <usr13> She's been using it profusely all those years, and has large email cache.
[06:47] <younghacker> WOW
[06:47] <younghacker> that one does to
[06:47] <cellofellow> sloucher: it would start up eth1, and die on eth0. This is restarting the networking init.d item.
[06:47] <CyberMad> any help for my problem?
[06:47] <wctraxler> can some body answer this here is the url:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30871/
[06:47] <Sirrush> Hello Everyone
[06:47] <rhoruns> Sirrush, are you from Arizona????
[06:47] <younghacker> i have a new loop back address....
[06:47] <balleyne> usr13: hehe, I just moved my mom from XP to Feisty the other week, so I had to transfer all her mail over to thunderbird which is why it's still fresh in my mind
[06:47] <younghacker> i wonder if this has anything to do with NAT
[06:47] <ferronica_> sparks: ???
[06:47] <wctraxler> bathroom time brb
[06:48] <sloucher> cellofellow, hmmm, you leave out eth1? just leave it out of /etc/network/interfaces
[06:48] <cellofellow> sloucher: where are the eth* files anyway?
[06:48] <cellofellow> sloucher: yes, tried that too.
[06:48] <usr13> balleyne, Yea, I have a mother-in-law on linux, (since about 3 years ago), and need to update her's too.
[06:48] <usr13> She lives here with us now.
[06:49] <usr13> Ok, well, been long day. Gotta go.  Thanks again.
[06:49] <sloucher> cellofellow, let me think, I remember having this problem
[06:49] <balleyne> usr13: np
[06:49] <younghacker> ::wonders if the VMware NAT service is the heart of his problem::
[06:49] <dennisharrison> younghacker, what is the problem ?
[06:49] <sloucher> cellofellow, well, what's wrong with it being called eth1?
[06:50] <younghacker> im locally posting my site on 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.1.1 and i can't access through my dynDNS name from the net,,
[06:50] <sloucher> cellofellow, I seem to remember moving the pci card to a different slot
[06:50] <balleyne> younghacker: not really sure what to tell you, I'm no expert on the matter.. in my situation, I have a pretty minimal setup, just got it working locally first using nc and testing it from other machines, I ended up restarting apache once or twice, eventually it was working... then the dyndns bit wasn't that hard, I found
[06:50] <younghacker> the loopback i understand the .1.1 im lost,, the dynDNS is also understandable to me
[06:50] <cellofellow> sloucher: nothing in particular, except I share my ~ directory with NFS and I don't like having to change the numbers on my panel applet.
[06:50] <younghacker> right thats what i figured
[06:51] <balleyne> younghacker: maybe you can check the apache logs to see if it's getting the requests? I'm not terribly familiar with those logs though... but they must be somewhere, lol
[06:51] <younghacker> it's cool though because im in school and everything i do is for practice, im no web designer i just wanted to practice setting up a server and posting to the web
[06:51] <younghacker> and my html
[06:51] <wctraxler> ok
[06:52] <rhoruns> Sirrush ahhhh
[06:52] <rhoruns>  im from arizona too
[06:52] <younghacker> i have no problems with completely removing apache and reinstalling if the installation was boched
[06:52] <younghacker> lol
[06:52] <rhoruns> let's have a linux lan party :D
[06:52] <Ashfire908> where can i download gnome for ubuntu? (i don't have a linux computer that can connect to the internet because i connect to the internet through a cell phone
[06:52] <balleyne> younghacker: yeah, I just set it up for mythweb (web interface for my MythTV setup) so I can schedule recordings from outside the house, lol
[06:52] <younghacker> lol
[06:52] <younghacker> cool
[06:52] <wctraxler> i back any body know how too use the terminal too fix a wireless proublem i am running a rt2500 links
[06:52] <sloucher> younghacker, i haven't followed the thread too closely, but do you have a firewall on that server?
[06:52] <jaw> younghacker: there are so many things that could go wrong, wouldn't it also work just with your IP address. Get that working and eliminate problems with the port forwarding etc on the router
[06:52] <balleyne> younghacker: well, if it's working locally, I doubt there'd be a problem with apache.. probably something else getting in the way.. at least from what I know *shrugs*
[06:52] <bruenig> wctraxler, did you paste it yet? I didn't see theh link
[06:52] <m0u5e> why are the ubuntu repos' still on 1.2.2?
[06:52] <m0u5e> for audacious
[06:53] <wctraxler> yes
[06:53] <jaw> once the   IP works, then   add in the dyndns element to the mix
[06:53] <wctraxler> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30871/
[06:53] <astro76> Ashfire908, I imagine you can stick in the ubuntu install cd and use that for a source when you apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:53] <younghacker> no but this is a virtual server (technically) because it's all inside a VM sitting on top of a windows box
[06:53] <younghacker> the windows box is using Zone Alarms
[06:53] <balleyne> younghacker: oooooh, I didn't know that! lol
[06:53] <younghacker> lol
[06:53] <astro76> Ashfire908, desktop install cd of course, not server
[06:54] <Ashfire908> how do i do that?
[06:54] <rhoruns> can anyone help me with this error i keep getting when i try to install Ubuntu updates?? "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[06:54] <younghacker> yea,, i forgot to mention that
[06:54] <astro76> Ashfire908, apt-cdrom
[06:54] <younghacker> wait
[06:54] <younghacker> i just thought of something
[06:54] <younghacker> brb
[06:54] <sloucher> younghacker, ok, so when your on the ubuntu virtual machine can you get to the web page at all using 127.0.0.1?
[06:54] <jaw> younghacker: you're in NYC, are you going to mysqlcamp in brooklyn next month?
[06:54] <balleyne> younghacker: hehe, I don't have any experience with VM myself, but I'd imagine that you'd need to let the windows bouncer (ie zone alarms) know that traffic is allowed in on port 80
[06:54] <younghacker> NO HOW DO I BECOME A PART OF THAT @ jaw
[06:54] <younghacker> cool
[06:55] <Khrajin> How do I enable automatic login to (Kubuntu) via editing a conf file?
[06:55] <bruenig> !prefix | wctraxler
[06:55] <ubotu> wctraxler: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[06:55] <younghacker> ahhhh
[06:55] <younghacker> yea,,, i had delayed reactions @ balleyne
[06:55] <jaw> younghacker, also, many (*many, many, many*) ISPs block port 80
[06:55] <jaw> make sure you try a few others besides 80.
[06:55] <wctraxler> i even loaded up the  knetwokmanger  ok
[06:55] <showgun> how can i search a text file that contains a word "HELLO" inside it?
[06:55] <younghacker> i am starting to piece it all togetrher now
[06:55] <showgun> can find command do that? and how?
[06:55] <sloucher> showgun, usuing grep
[06:55] <cellofellow> showgun: grep
[06:55] <rhoruns> do Ctrl+F
[06:56] <balleyne> jaw: but that shouldn't cause problems on his local network, and he can't even access it from other local machines yet
[06:56] <jaw> younghacker: http://techsocial.com/archives/262/mysql-camp-ii-nyc/ mysql camp info
[06:56] <younghacker> so set the port.conf file ?
[06:56] <sloucher> grep hello filename
[06:56] <thoreauputic> showgun: grep HELLO filename
[06:56] <jaw> balleyne: oh. oops(!). didn't realize that
[06:56] <Ashfire908> astro76, where can i get it's doc?
[06:56] <cellofellow> showgun: it's case sensitive
[06:56] <younghacker> i'll be there
[06:56] <thoreauputic> sloucher: case sensitive :)
[06:56] <astro76> Ashfire908, doc for what?
[06:56] <younghacker> i;ll miss work for that
[06:56] <Ashfire908> apt-cdrom
[06:56] <balleyne> younghacker: yeah, that would change the port that apache listens on - but the ISPs won't be blocking things on your local network, so that's not going to be the problem (imo)
[06:57] <Ashfire908> it runs off the tp on the screen
[06:57] <cellofellow> (if one command has a weird name, it's grep. Who came up with that?)
[06:57] <sloucher> thoreauputic, oh shoot, man grep
[06:57] <jaw> younghacker: haha, as for me. shoot me an email before you go -- or leave a comment on techsocial
[06:57] <balleyne> jaw: yeah, good point though, I didn't realize that but it makes sense
[06:57] <astro76> Ashfire908, man apt-cdrom
[06:57] <younghacker> whats ur email? or username
[06:57] <m0u5e> anyone willing to teach me how to compile (audacious player)?
[06:57] <sloucher> thoreauputic, -i is ignore case
[06:57] <thoreauputic> sloucher: grep -i makes it case-insensitive :)
[06:57] <Khrajin> Could you host websites on port 85 but when people are direct to port 80 it bounces it to port 85? or is it blocked before that?
[06:57] <jaw> younghacker: jaw --at-- techsocial
[06:57] <thoreauputic> sloucher: right
[06:57] <younghacker> cool
[06:57] <younghacker> im on there now i'll look u up
[06:58] <balleyne> Khrajin: I'd imagine it'd be blocked before that... though I don't know *shrugs*
[06:58] <Khrajin> How do I enable automatic login to ubuntu w/ KDE via editing a conf file?
[06:58] <Ashfire908> astro76, i told you, it ran off the top of the screen
[06:58] <ferronica_> burner: ???
[06:58] <rhoruns> does anyone here know what dpkg is????
[06:59] <Khrajin> !dpkg rhoruns
[06:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dpkg rhoruns - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:59] <Khrajin> !dpkg | rhoruns
[06:59] <ubotu> rhoruns: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[06:59] <astro76> Ashfire908, you did not tell me you ran "man apt-cdrom", and man should not do that, it uses a pager by default
[06:59] <sloucher> rhoruns, i think we all know what dpkg is
[06:59] <rhoruns> bah
[06:59] <younghacker> i hope i could retain all this information i just took in
[06:59] <Ashfire908> one sec, let me try doing something
[06:59] <younghacker> cause lord knows it's time to sleep
[06:59] <younghacker> =)
[06:59] <balleyne> rhoruns: still working on that failed download?
[06:59] <rhoruns> i accidentally closed it when i tried to install VirtualBox. the installation froze, and i was trying to kill it
[06:59] <balleyne> younghaker: haha, well, good luck!
[06:59] <Ashfire908> got it
[07:00] <Ashfire908> i had -k in the command
[07:00] <balleyne> rhoruns: ok, you should just be able to run that command it mentioned, and it'll resume from where it left off
[07:00] <younghacker> yea, thanks guys i appreciate everything, its not working but i definately got plenty insight
[07:00] <m0u5e> anyone know if the newest version of audacious is out on feisty backports? cause i cant seem to find it...
[07:00] <sloucher> rhoruns, you killed dpkg? so just do the command again?
[07:00] <rhoruns> balleyne, it says that i can not run the command without superuser prilileges.
[07:00] <younghacker> i'll work on it and jaw i'll shoot u a message
[07:00] <balleyne> so just put a 'sudo' in front of it
[07:00] <wctraxler> bruening yes i did paste it
[07:00] <rhoruns> privileges*
[07:01] <balleyne> !sudo | rhoruns
[07:01] <jaw> younghacker: sounds good, adios!
[07:01] <ubotu> rhoruns: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:01] <rhoruns> ahh
[07:01] <wctraxler> bruening:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30871/
[07:01] <balleyne> rhoruns: :)
[07:01] <rhoruns> ok lol, thanks balleyne :)
[07:01] <balleyne> rhoruns: np
[07:01] <shuchon1> wine setup IE6.0 20% wrong:'(
[07:02] <vas> hey whats different between relative and absolute
[07:02] <Ashfire908> how do i set the time
[07:02] <bastid_raZor> you're wrong for even wanting to install IE
[07:02] <vas> and whats different about / and \
[07:02] <balleyne> rhoruns: this is the best explanation of sudo - http://xkcd.com/c149.html
[07:02] <rhoruns> ok
[07:02] <sloucher> vas, relative depends on where you are in the directory. Absolute is the full exact path
[07:02] <balleyne> rhoruns: it gets funnier each time I see it, but maybe that's just me
[07:02] <rhoruns> ahhhh! :D
[07:02] <rhoruns> hahaha
[07:03] <balleyne> rhoruns: hehe
[07:03] <vas> sloucher: so whats the deal between \ and  /
[07:03] <Redimere> Sup all
[07:03] <wctraxler> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i gess ill figer it out on my own
[07:03] <GiZiM> sloucher One leans with and and one rocks with it
[07:03] <wctraxler> bye
[07:03] <Redimere> wctraxler: later
[07:03] <bastid_raZor> heh
[07:04] <Redimere> Hey, anybody got any experience with ATI drivers?
[07:04] <snowy> >< need help D: with sound driver's
[07:04] <sloucher> vas, ahhh \ is an escape character. / is part of the path
[07:04] <grios> Hey.  I'm using Ubuntu 7.04.  I accidently removed the network configuration tool from my taskbar and I do not know how to get it back.  Is there any way to fix this?
[07:04] <thoreauputic> vas: linux/unix uses / as delimiter of directories - \ is used as an escape character mostly
[07:04] <rhoruns> ok, i did sudo dpkg --configure -a... and nothing happened. so i tried installing virtualbox again, and updating ubuntu, and now i get a plethora of erroes.
[07:04] <rhoruns> errors*
[07:04] <grios> redimere what do you need?  I suggest just using fglrx drivers
[07:04] <memo__> i have a wireless network with 2 computers...PCWindowxp, LaptopUbuntu.  Pc can ping Laptop but not viceversa.  So, after PC ping my laptop, it is able to ping my pc...any ideas!
[07:04] <vas> thnx
[07:04] <jaw> balleyne: I'm doing the same with dyndns. Locally I can access the machine from within my network (i'm on port 3000, but I get Connection Refused when trying the same with nc
[07:04] <Redimere> grios: I'm trying, but I can't get fglrx to accept that my card is ATI and not Mesa
[07:05] <balleyne> grios: you should be able to right-click on a panel, hit 'Add to Panel'... should be in there somewhere, if we're talking about the same thing
[07:05] <phlux> meh I can't install ubuntu
[07:05] <phlux> ;\
[07:05] <Redimere> phlux: What won't work?
[07:05] <Ashfire908> how do you set the clock from the command line
[07:05] <jaw> balleyne: I'm allowing port 3000 in my router on udp/tcp and forwarding it to my local ip within the network... anything obvious I might be missing?
[07:05] <sloucher> ashfire908, ntpdate is the easy way
[07:05] <astro76> grios, maybe you removed the "notification area" applet from the panel, you can add that back by right click on panel and select add to panel...
[07:05] <phlux> Redimere, two things. first: my graphical interface won't start up. second: it keeps giving me some driver error about bcmwl something or another
[07:05] <snowy> wow its busy in here o.o
[07:06] <balleyne> rhoruns: gah... I don't have any experience with any virtual machines really, so I'm not sure how that would effect things... what happened when I had that problem though, the installation was cut off, and that command just kinda picks up where it left off and finishes things... at least that's what it's supposed to do =\
[07:06] <grios> sorry, my thing logged off for some reason
[07:06] <snowy> does anyone have and knowledge of sound drivers?
[07:06] <Redimere> phlux: Go to a tty window
[07:06] <Ashfire908> is that a network based time?
[07:06] <balleyne> jaws: well, try your router by IP first before dyndns - have you done that?
[07:06] <vas> adsf
[07:06] <rhoruns> oh ok. well, it seems that the installation file is either corrupt, or i dont have permission to open it :P
[07:06] <grios> balleyne: That's what I thought, but I can't seem to find the right option to add back to the taskbar
[07:06] <snowy> for some reason my sound just stopped working i tried alsmixer =/ didnt work
[07:06] <Redimere> grios: Any thoughts on my driver issue? I followed the instructions directly and it still won't function
[07:06] <rhoruns> then it says, 'Check the permission file'
[07:07] <memo__>  i have a wireless network with 2 computers...PCWindowxp, LaptopUbuntu.  Pc can ping Laptop but not viceversa.  So, after PC ping my laptop, it is able to ping my pc...any ideas!
[07:07] <balleyne> jaws: like, http://whatismyip.com/ IP address - that way you can see if the router settings are working, regardless of dynDNS
[07:07] <grios> redimere: Not really.... I'm relatively new to this linux thing... Sorry :-/
[07:07] <Ashfire908> sloucher, is that a network based time? my server doesn't have access to the internet
[07:07] <Redimere> grios: It's cool man
[07:07] <thetaleofcody> need some help...wheneven I run beryl, my task bar disappears. I'm using feisty and I'm ATI...but I have had beryl running just fine for a while now
[07:08] <sloucher> memo_ firewalls?
[07:08] <balleyne> rhoruns: hmm... sudo is supposed to be able to do anything really, not sure what permissions problems you could be having...
[07:08] <astro76> grios, did you see my message about "notification area" panel applet?
[07:08] <c2c2rock-puptop> 8-|)
[07:08] <astro76> grios, that's where the network manager shows up
[07:08] <rhoruns> how do i open files through the terminal?
[07:08] <rhoruns> i have the installation thingy on my desktop
[07:08] <dominussuus> hullo room: I have a question about 3d games: on my feisty kubuntu box, my games were correctly filling the screen when I had a lower resolution than the x-window.  Now, at low resolutions, games occupy a tiny square on the screen
[07:08] <balleyne> grios: so what is it specifically that you're missing? I have a NetworkManager Applet, and Network Monitor
[07:08] <m0u5e> thetaleofcody: i had that same problem, couldn't really figure out how to fix it
[07:08] <snowy> =/ Still need help with sound =3
[07:09] <Ashfire908> how do i manually set the time?
[07:09] <balleyne> grios: I know you can open up the NetworkManager Applet again by running 'nm-applet &' from the terminal
[07:09] <thetaleofcody> m0u5e: yeah...its no good
[07:09] <sloucher> rhoruns, many ways to open files from terminal. What are you trying to do?
[07:09] <rhoruns> im trying to install VirtualBox
[07:09] <jaw> balleyne: thanks, I run nc 71.97.xx.xx 3000 and get (Unknown) : connection refused

[07:09] <balleyne> rhoruns: I'm new to IRC, lol
[07:10] <grios> ok
[07:10] <balleyne> rhoruns: um, so, 'cat' will display the contents of a file, 'vim' is a command line editor, 'gedit' is a graphical editor
[07:10] <grios> astro76: i didn't see that message
[07:10] <rhoruns> ok
[07:10] <grios> balleyne: I just tried that... it won't open up
[07:10] <memo__>  i have a wireless network with 2 computers...PCWindowxp, LaptopUbuntu.  Pc can ping Laptop but not viceversa.  So, after PC ping my laptop, it is able to ping my pc...any ideas!
[07:10] <balleyne> rhoruns: so, '<program> <myfile>' should do the trick
[07:11] <balleyne> rhoruns: but, if you don't have proper permissions, 'sudo <program> <myfile>'
[07:11] <rhoruns> oh ok
[07:11] <balleyne> rhoruns: ... well, your file
[07:11] <snowy> memo try disabling the windows firewall
[07:11] <OrgulloKmoore> Ok, so I have a .mpg with audio, but just a black screen. Does anyone know how I can just ad a picture to that, so it won't be a black screen?
[07:11] <balleyne> grios: hmm... have you figured out if it's the NetworkManger Applet or the Network Monitor that you're missing?
[07:11] <nicholaspaul> burner: Just wanted to say that Loggin In now works like a charm - thx!
[07:11] <dominussuus> memo - check to see whether any of the firewalls are blocking ping requests
[07:12] <Khrajin> How do I restart xserver from /etc/inid.d/?
[07:12] <xtknight> Khrajin, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:12] <Khrajin> sudo kdm restart?
[07:12] <grios> balleyne: NetworkManager applet
[07:12] <astro76> rhoruns, what file are you trying to run?
[07:12] <xtknight> Khrajin, if you use KDE, kdm.
[07:12] <grios> balleyne: The thing that allows me to choose what wireless network to connect to, etc.
[07:12] <balleyne> grios: ok, that should be 'nm-applet'... maybe try without the '&'?
[07:13] <rhoruns> the VirtualBox installation. I can't even update Ubuntu without either installation the rest of this VirtualBox package, or removing it.
[07:13] <sloucher> khrajin sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[07:13] <grios> hmm
[07:13] <tetonca> Ashfire908: man date ; man hwclock
[07:13] <dominussuus> all of the sudden enemy territory and open arena aren't full-screening properly
[07:13] <grios> balleyne: hmm...trying now, but doesn't seem to be doing anything.
[07:13] <carter_> hello
[07:14] <Khrajin> sloucher: Cool. Is everything in /etc/init.d/ active processes?
[07:14] <balleyne> grios: hmm hmm... how did you lose it? did you remove it by accident, or did it just disappear?
[07:14] <Khrajin> sloucher: More specifically, active daemons?
[07:14] <dominussuus> at low resolutions, my 3d games now occupy a fraction of the screen whereas before they 'stretched out' to the full screen
[07:15] <grios> balleyne: by accident
[07:15] <dominussuus> any ideas about what may have changedZ
[07:15] <dominussuus> *may have changed?
[07:15] <makky_> hi
[07:16] <makky_> i need help access the internet on my other computer
[07:16] <balleyne> grios: well, I just found it in my startup session, but it said 'nm-applet --sm-disable'
[07:16] <dominussuus> makky - what's the issueZ
[07:16] <sloucher> khrajin, sorry i steped out, but what? Everything in /etc/init.d works the same way.
[07:16] <tetonca> Khrajin: the start/stop daemon needs scripts as input to .. start and stop daemons.  These scripts are located in /etc/init.d/* and are soft-linked-to in /etc/rc2.d and other places.
[07:16] <makky_> i has a Belkin wireless card, which is the only way I can access the internet with it (if necessary i can plug in an ethernet cord, but prefer not to)
[07:16] <balleyne> grios: so, either try that command, or you could always restart so that your startup session thingy runs again (assuming this problem hasn't persisted between restarts)
[07:17] <Khrajin> tetonca: I sorta get it :D
[07:17] <dominussuus> makky - so what happens when you try to connect wirelessly?
[07:17] <makky_> i dont think Ubuntu is recognizing the card
[07:17] <makky_> nothing I open Firefox, and it says Network not found (I am new to Ubuntu and Linux btw)
[07:18] <snowy> Need help with sound drivers running on inspirion 6000 tried also mixer and tried to even change it to oss still no results even after reboot
[07:18] <grios> alright.  lemme try that balleyne.  Thanks!
[07:18] <tetonca> Khrajin: the general syntax is 'sudo /etc/init.d/foo start|stop|reload
[07:18] <dominussuus> makki - fire up a console and type "iwconfig"
[07:18] <balleyne> grios: np, hope that helps
[07:18] <makky_> ok brb comp is in adjacent room
[07:18] <OrgulloKmoore> Ok, so I have a .mpg with audio, but just a black screen. Does anyone know how I can just make a .jpg the video input for that? I used ffmpeg to create the .mpg from a .wav
[07:19] <Khrajin> tetonca: I understand that but I'm trying to comprehend *what* /etc/init.d/foo is
[07:19] <snowy> orgullokmoore: try vlc player it can be found on the synaptic manager
[07:19] <tetonca> Khrajin: do you know what a shell script is?  They mostly begin with
[07:19] <sloucher> OrgulloKmoore, you need an application that I guess we don't know. Why don't you google for linux video editing applications
[07:19] <Ashfire908> um... how do i shutdown a system from a command line
[07:19] <bruenig> Khrajin, /etc/init.d is the directory that holds the daemons, if you run /etc/init.d/foo you will run whatever that daemon is
[07:19] <snowy> Need help with sound drivers running on inspirion 6000 tried also mixer and tried to even change it to oss still no results even after reboot
[07:19] <sloucher> sudo shutdown -h now
[07:19] <Khrajin> Ahh.
[07:19] <Simkin> Ashfire908: sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now
[07:19] <dominussuus> ashfire - sudo poweroff
[07:20] <bruenig> Khrajin, althought you do need to give it a parameter like /etc/init.d/foo start
[07:20] <tetonca> .. with '#!/bin/sh' or sometimes another 'shell' such as perl, python etc.
[07:20] <Khrajin> bruenig: Ok so the files in /etc/init.d/ are running daemons.
[07:20] <_`XeOn_> i need help installing drivers for my video card ATI
[07:20] <makky_> dominussuus - i typed in iwconfig and for 'wifi0:' it says: " No wireless extensions"
[07:20] <deathspell> !ftp
[07:20] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[07:20] <bruenig> Khrajin, I think so, I don't know if they are all running, I hope not, that is a lot of unnecessary bloat but probably
[07:21] <Ashfire908> thanks Simkin
[07:21] <Khrajin> bruenig: How can you tell what is running?
[07:21] <dominussuus> makky - eth0 is probably your ethernet jack - it doesn't provide anything elseZ
[07:21] <tetonca> Ashfire908: 'sudo init 0' shuts down and 'sudo init 6' reboots.  There's also 'telinit' I think.
[07:21] <sloucher> khrajin, they dont' have to be running or daemons really, there scripts to start and stop programs and daemons
[07:21] <bruenig> they are just scripts but are called daemons
[07:21] <_`XeOn_> !ati
[07:21] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:21] <Khrajin> bruenig: ah ok
[07:21] <bruenig> they launch or do something else
[07:21] <Khrajin> sloucher ok
[07:21] <dominussuus> sorry about the z question marks... reacquainting myself with the dvorak keyboard
[07:21] <Simkin> Ashfire908: no problem. if you want to reboot instead you can use -r instead of -h.
[07:21] <Ashfire908> k

[07:22] <jaw> I'm trying to set up dyndns for a machine in my local network. Anyone see this from their end? http://secondvalley.dyndns.org:3000/
[07:22] <snowy> aslamixer*
[07:22] <makky_> dominussuus - it has 4 different things: "lo, eth0, wifi0, and ath0" all except ath0 say "No wireless extensions"
[07:22] <balleyne> jaws: nope
[07:22] <tetonca> bruenig: /etc/init.d contains NO DAEMONS whatsoever. ;)  They're shell scripts.
[07:22] <Ashfire908> for future reference, how do you manully change the time via command propmt
[07:23] <jaw> hmm.. thanks   balleyne
[07:23] <dominussuus> makky - what does ath0 say
[07:23] <hac> anyone in here know gimp?
[07:23] <makky_> dominussuus - a lot! lol hold on

[07:24] <Khrajin> Dumb question... I don't have a video card hooked up to a system, but I want to VNC into the gui. The Xorg log says 'Fatal Error, no screens found' Do I have to have a video card to do this?
[07:24] <balleyne> jaw: k, so it's most likely an issue with your router
[07:24] <balleyne> jaw: have you set up port mapping on the router?
[07:25] <jaw> i've got an   old dlink di-624.
[07:25] <tetonca> Khrajin: no X11 server needed for VNC except vncserver (which I *think* is technically an X11 server).
[07:25] <jaw> port 3000 is routed to port 3000 (tcp and udp) of the private ip computer: 192.168.1.47
[07:25] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: why don't you just use the wav file for the audio source instead of the mpg?
[07:25] <astro76> jaw, and you have a web server on port 3000?
[07:26] <balleyne> jaw: an your sure that 192.168.1.47 is listening on 3000?
[07:26] <jaw> right, and it's accessible from another computer in the network
[07:26] <balleyne> jaw: right
[07:27] <OrgulloKmoore> Gambrinus> I want to fuse .wav video with a .jpg image to make a "video" (a picture that talks)
[07:27] <OrgulloKmoore> .wav sound file***
[07:27] <Khrajin> tetonca: The vnc server I had running was the one from KDE...
[07:27] <tetonca> To set the date/time just 'date --help' for the syntax.  To write it to the hardware clock, you have to use 'hwclock' -- there may be scripts setup to do so; and usually a script is called during shutdown that calls 'hwclock' to write the system time to the hardware clock.
[07:27] <balleyne> jaw: hmm, well, it's probably an issue with the router and port mapping rather than dynDNS right now, because first it's gotta be working by IP...
[07:28] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: i see...i thought you converted the audio into a video file with blank video and then wanted to add jpg to that. i'll give an example that may work.
[07:28] <jaw> balleyne: yes... could it be with the loopback problem?
[07:28] <grumo> i have an ati card how to i select vga or dvi as output in the xorg.conf? thanks
[07:28] <OrgulloKmoore> Gambrinus> That is what I did. But I'm open to other options
[07:28] <tetonca> Think of 'date' as temporary (until reboot or 'date' or 'hwclock') and 'hwclock' as permanent (survives power down and boot sequence).
[07:28] <balleyne> jaw: I'd double check the settings on your router... I've used a similar model, but at my gf's place, so I don't have access to check the admin interface myself
[07:28] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: give me a minute...
[07:28] <balleyne> jaw: I'm not really familiar with loopback (or at least with the term)
[07:28] <OrgulloKmoore> ok, Gambrinus, thanks
[07:29] <tetonca> and 'date' called with no arguments (hah) just retrieves what the system thinks the current date/time is.
[07:29] <astro76> OrgulloKmoore, apt-cache search video edit, or search in synaptic... should pull up something usefull
[07:29] <jaw> balleyne: what's odd is the router shows 2 ip's for this computer, as if a different network pool feeds the wireless connections from local connections. i though it was 192.168.1.102, but then it also looked like it was 192.168.1.47
[07:30] <tetonca> Khrajin: I don't see any reason to start KDE to use vncserver.
[07:30] <Khrajin> tetonca: <-- noob, thats why ;)
[07:30] <deathspe2l> I have a question. Suppose you're downloading something in Ubuntu and you get disconnected.. Wouldn't it resume after you connect again, or do you have to stop and resume the download manually?
[07:30] <balleyne> jaw: hmm, that's strange... but 47 works locally, not 102, right? (for access the web server)
[07:30] <tetonca> Khrajin: I haven't used it in a while so I'm not up on the nuances of vnc.
[07:31] <dfgas> what is better for virtuizilation
[07:31] <slavik> deathspe2l: where you downloading from and using what program?
[07:31] <balleyne> jaw: have you given the machine a static ip?
[07:31] <astro76> deathspe1l, depends on what program
[07:31] <Khrajin> tetonca: I got vncserver running, I got logged in, the screen is just grey w/ an 'x' as a cursor, nothing else
[07:31] <jaw> balleyne - no static ip, and something's going on with the 102 vs 47 bit
[07:31] <rhoruns> what the hell? the terminal turned into like, a DOS-like GUI. how do i accept the license agreement? there is an 'OK' at the bottom, but i cant seem to select, click, or keystroke it
[07:31] <tetonca> deathspe2l: use wget -c /uri/
[07:31] <jaw> ::investigating::
[07:32] <rhoruns> nvm.. i used Tab. LoL
[07:32] <slavik> rhoruns: scroll down using arrow keys?
[07:32] <Khrajin> pgup pgdn
[07:32] <tetonca> Khrajin: the grey screen with the X cursor /is/ X11 with nothing else running. Try to get an 'xterm' going on that, first.
[07:32] <rhoruns> yeah yeah.. i'm sorry, i'm just a little noob >_<
[07:32] <balleyne> jaw: you may want to give a static ip anyways (whether from the machine's settings, or by creating a rule in the router admin based on the machine's MAC address)... I have no idea if that's related to the 47v102 thing though
[07:33] <balleyne> rhoruns: hehe, don't worry, that stumped me for a bit too the first time I saw something like it
[07:33] <rhoruns> :)
[07:33] <Khrajin> Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server

[07:33] <deathspe3l> slavik: I'm downloading an mpg file using gwget and got disconnected. Now the download is stuck there as it is saying "retrieving". It doesn't know I got disconnected. The same is the case with torrents, DC++ and everything else I use for downloads. I'd want it to disconnect and connect again automatically than me having to resume it manually.
[07:33] <rhoruns> Sirrush, what part of phoenix are you in? i'm near 51st and Bell
[07:33] <astro76> !away | CWO4Mann
[07:33] <ubotu> CWO4Mann: 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
[07:34] <makky_> dominussuus - ath0 has way too much for me to type
[07:34] <tetonca> Khrajin: That isn't a deal-breaker.  It's a security issue.  Where did you try to start xterm from?  If you have X11 and a grey desktop and no windows, what did you do next to start it?
[07:34] <makky_> dominussuus - but it starts: IEEE 102.11g
[07:35] <makky_> something like that
[07:35] <Khrajin> tetonca: Um, I tried xterm from my ssh putty connection
[07:35] <deathspe3l> I have a question. Suppose you're downloading something in Ubuntu and you get disconnected.. Wouldn't it resume after you connect again, or do you have to stop and resume the download manually?
[07:35] <tetonca> Khrajin: if you first 'export DISPLAY=:10' or similar it may work.
[07:35] <tetonca> in that ssh session.
[07:35] <rhoruns> i feel so fricken 1337 using this customized terminal.. LOL :D
[07:35] <dominussuus> makky - that's okay.  That's almost certainly your wireless device.  What you want to look for is its ESSD and whether it says its power is on or off
[07:35] <balleyne> deathspe3l: no idea what should happen, but I've had mixed experiences depending on the application I was using
[07:36] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: ffmpeg -r 1 -loop_input -f mjpeg -i inputimage.jpg -i audio.wav output.avi
[07:36] <makky_> dominussuus - ok ill go look
[07:36] <OrgulloKmoore> awesome, Gambrinus, I'll try it
[07:36] <dissection> balleyne: I'm downloading an mpg file using gwget and got disconnected. Now the download is stuck there as it is saying "retrieving". It doesn't know I got disconnected. The same is the case with torrents, DC++ and everything else I use for downloads. I'd want it to disconnect and connect again automatically than me having to resume it manually.
[07:36] <rhoruns> i would definitely be using Linux 100% of the time if there was more support for games
[07:36] <makky_> dominussuus - it does not say anything: "ESSID:==  Nickname:== "
[07:37] <balleyne> rhoruns: what, Tux Racer isn't good enough? lol
[07:37] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: that's a start.  from there you can change your format or frame size, etc.
[07:37] <Jack_Sparrow> rhoruns: I dual boot, Ubuntu for the web and Xp for games
[07:37] <dominussuus> makky - see what happens when you type (again, in the console) "sudo iwconfig ath0 txpower on"
[07:37] <dissection> lol
[07:37] <hac> games? UT is all you really need
[07:38] <dominussuus> (it could also be "txpower=on" if that doesn't work)
[07:38] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: when you asked your question I was working on a script for ffmpeg.  what timing.
[07:38] <Khrajin> tetonca:
[07:38] <Khrajin> Xlib: PuTTY X11 proxy: wrong authentication protocol attempted
[07:38] <Khrajin> I tried both auth methods that were supplies
[07:38] <Khrajin> supplied
[07:38] <tetonca> Khrajin: yeah that's a problem.  Probably very simple but I don't know except 'xhosts' based auth.
[07:39] <OrgulloKmoore> Gambrinus> Tight. Not to push the limits or anything, but is there a way to add *several* images to the audio, so that it's like a talking slideshow, and control at what time what images are shown?
[07:39] <tetonca> I think there's a way to work around it by copying .Xauthority off a working session into your $HOME directory.
[07:39] <makky_> dominussuus- it says SET failed; operation not permitted
[07:40] <makky_> dominussuus- ill try txpower=on
[07:40] <tetonca> Khrajin: I would be surprised if the solution wasn't pretty simple.  Google it maybe.
[07:40] <dominussuus> makky - are you sure you prefaced the iwconfig command with 'sudo'Z
[07:40] <dominussuus> *?
[07:40] <Khrajin> tetonca bah :/
[07:40] <Khrajin> xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/orly/.Xauthority
[07:41] <nprice> does the ubuntu installer or alternate installer have dm-crypt support like the debian installer?
[07:41] <tetonca> Khrajin: fool with 'xhosts +<ip.address.in.dotted-quad'
[07:41] <makky_> dominussuus - yea i forgot... now i did sudo
[07:41] <Gambrinus> OrgulloKmoore: sounds more like a job for Kino or Cinelerra
[07:42] <Khrajin> where is the xhosts file?
[07:42] <tetonca> terrible.  Just 'xhosts +ip'  fill in the IP address instead of 'ip' there.
[07:42] <OrgulloKmoore> Gambrinus> So I figured :-p
[07:42] <makky_> dominussuus - this time nothing happened... i pressed enter and it shows new command line.. for me to type new command..
[07:42] <OrgulloKmoore> looks like I'm gonna have to figure out how to work those
[07:42] <tetonca> xhost maybe not xhosts. been a while.
[07:42] <balleyne> dissection: agreed, though I don't have a solution... it's annoying though =\ (sorry about the delayed response)

[07:44] <setite> can anyone help me with my samba problem
[07:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:44] <cafuego> Khrajin: make sure your user account owns /home/orly/.Xauthority
[07:44] <eboyjr> !anaglyph
[07:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anaglyph - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:45] <setite> !vista
[07:45] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[07:45] <Khrajin> cerealkilla: Disk size is limitation
[07:45] <dominussuus> makky - try "iwlist scanning"
[07:45] <astro76> anathematic, do you really need to enable it? or do you just need a root terminal (sudo -i)
[07:45] <setite> !samba
[07:45] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:45] <makky_> dominussuus- in terminal?
[07:45] <tetonca> anathematic: it's already enabled.  The password for root is missing or locked.  'sudo' allows you to execute 'passwd' as root. Changing root's password also unlocks it.
[07:45] <anathematic> astro76:  haha yeah it's just easier for what i'm doing, i'll just disable it soon as i finish
[07:45] <anathematic> tetonca: i'd like to login as root if i coudl?
[07:45] <dominussuus> makky - yep, from the terminal
[07:45] <onexused> !wine
[07:45] <tetonca> anathematic: 'sudo -s'
[07:45] <onexused> erm.. what's the command to ask the bot something?
[07:46] <robby> Anyone know a good site explaining URL hacking and/or programming?
[07:46] <anathematic> tetonca:  thank you :)
[07:46] <onexused> sorry : \
[07:46] <rhoruns> now, the only thing i need to fix is my sound. lol :D
[07:46] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:46] <onexused> ah
[07:46] <pawan> hi
[07:46] <cerealkilla> k... ive got a 500gb sata HD, and im finding that ppl SAY u can do just a single partition install (which im NOT trying to do), but when i put in large partition sizes, the partitioner is not making them as big as im asking it to. any ideas???
[07:46] <anathematic> tetonca: what's the command to just disable it again sorry?
[07:46] <makky_> dominussuus- ok brb
[07:46] <dissection> cafuego: It isn't there in the repositry
[07:46] <Khrajin> cerealkilla: how far 'off' are the partitions?
[07:46] <tetonca> anathematic: 'sudo passwd -l root' locks root.
[07:46] <anathematic> tetonca:  thank you :)
[07:46] <Khrajin> tetonca: Not sure what to do with /usr/bin/xhost
[07:47] <cafuego> dissection: it is
[07:47] <tetonca> anathematic: if you really want to disable it (no chance to change your mind) disable sudo.  bad idea.
[07:47] <balleyne> cerealkilla: this might be a bit of dodge, but you can partition your drive using the gparted live cd before installing for a nice graphic environment to set things up, instead of having to manually edit the partition tables
[07:47] <makky_> dominussuus- i see my network as Cell 05
[07:47] <eboyjr> Any one want to start making a 3D anaglyph window manager?
[07:47] <wctraxler>  /etc/udev/rules.d/85-linux-wlan-ng.rules  any body know how too edit this file with admd permission i have read a lot still have this error when starting up says too delete it in the next kurnel update?
[07:47] <cafuego> dissection: '!lftp' does not search the repository.
[07:47] <pawan> any software to search files in ubuntu
[07:47] <anathematic> tetonca:  well i just want to disable access to login in from that account afterwards like it's default =)
[07:47] <rhoruns> eboyjr, i'd love to. how would you go about doing this?
[07:47] <Jack_Sparrow> cerealkilla: there is a limit to the number of primary partitions... what sizes are you trying to set up
[07:47] <balleyne> cerealkilla: then, all you'd have to do is edit /etc/fstab I think, to make sure that the partitions you created are mounting in the right places... I think that's doable, I've read about others doing things that way
[07:47] <robby> Anyone?  URL manipulation and/or programming
[07:48] <Khrajin> !google | robby
[07:48] <ubotu> robby: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[07:48] <cafuego> Bueller?
[07:48] <dominussuus> makky - everything looks good.  Look in Ubuntu's taskbar (with the little icons) for your internet connectivity icon
[07:48] <tetonca> anathematic: just 'sudo passwd -l root' .. you can verify this in /etc/shadow where there's an exclamation mark in front of the encrypted password for root.
[07:48] <dissection> cafuego: I just checked Add/Remove and it wasn't there. apt-get install lftp didn't find it either
[07:48] <setite> one question... when adding the samba share to the fstab it asks for //servername/sharename.. is servername the ip or the name of the share
[07:48] <eboyjr> rhoruns: Take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:1930_Cord.jpg
[07:48] <sdouble> setite: of those 2 options, the ip
[07:48] <dominussuus> makky - then see whether it will let you change your connection to wireless
[07:48] <rhoruns> ahhh
[07:48] <balleyne> robby: no, no one site in particular comes to mind
[07:48] <rhoruns> i see
[07:48] <makky_> dominussuus- double-click it?
[07:48] <anathematic> :) ty tetonca
[07:48] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: Click on places search, or are you talking about the repos
[07:48] <tetonca> np
[07:48] <setite> ok.. sdouble.. and that would be the internal ip right
[07:48] <cafuego> dissection: "lftp - Sophisticated command-line FTP/HTTP client programs"
[07:48] <cafuego> dissection: It lives in main.
[07:48] <sdouble> setite: yes
[07:48] <dominussuus> makky - I think so... I use kubuntu so I'm doing this from memory
[07:48] <setite> k
[07:49] <tetonca> anathematic: also, you can 'init=/bin/sh' in grub to gain access to a locked system.
[07:49] <cerealkilla> Khrajin: as a test, it tells me my free space is: 500107MB, I have 0 partitions, tell it make 1 primary, 500107MB ext3, mounted to / and it gives me 70613MB
[07:49] <eboyjr> rhoruns: And http://www.scec.org/geowall/makeanaglyph.html which shows you how to make anaglyphs with photoshop.
[07:49] <tetonca> very primitive interface tho.
[07:49] <sdouble> setite: you can also use the computer name instead of the IP on a properly configured network
[07:49] <cerealkilla> balleyne: worst case scenerio, good call
[07:49] <makky_> dominussuus- oh ok.
[07:49] <pawan> got it
[07:49] <makky_> dominussuus- brb
[07:49] <_`XeOn_> plz help
[07:49] <setite> ok well in the network of ubuntu it shows the pc as smb://CORE-PC/
[07:49] <dissection> cafuego: I was looking for GUI obviously
[07:49] <setite> so i can use CORE-PC?
[07:49] <cafuego> dissection: Well, bad news then: there are no gui ftp clients that don't suck.
[07:49] <sdouble> setite: if you can ping CORE-PC, you should be able to use the servername as well
[07:50] <rhoruns> eboyjr, that's awesome. so basically, you just want to replace all the bitmaps of a windows manager with these anaglyph images??
[07:50] <setite> ok then last question i think.. what od i put for the sharename
[07:50] <anathematic> hehe how do i change the password on my root account? :)
[07:50] <dissection> cafuego: I meant one that isn't buggy
[07:50] <cerealkilla> and this is my 1st time running ubuntu or trying to install it... its a brand new fresh 500gb drive that im devoting to it
[07:50] <tetonca> anathematic: 'sudo pa
[07:50] <sdouble> setite: whatever you want to call it.
[07:50] <_`XeOn_> i just installed ATI drivers or at least i think cuz in restricted manager appears in use but i need to make sure is everything is ok to install compiz
[07:50] <tetonca> shoot.
[07:50] <tetonca> sudo passwd root
[07:50] <_`XeOn_> any1 can help?
[07:50] <syntux> guys, I just configured fetchmail to play with gmail, I created folder for mail /var/spool/mail/$USER but mutt is complaining about it for not being mailbox
[07:50] <anathematic> tetonca:  haha thanks :)
[07:50] <setite> well doesnt it have to match whatever the name is on the other pc
[07:50] <tetonca> that sets roots password and unlocks it (allows 'su - root')
[07:51] <cafuego> dissection: no idea, i don't use gui ftp ever, it's far too slow.
[07:51] <sdouble> setite: yes, so whatever you want to call the share, make sure the names match
[07:51] <anathematic> tetonca:  thanks no more questions now ;)
[07:51] <eboyjr> rhoruns: Hmmm.... Imagine when switching workspaces on the cube thing. And having it pop out at you when wearing 3D glasses you can make your self. The Windows pop out when they are open.
[07:51] <tetonca> anathematic: It should be clear that Linux cannot be secured if the intruder has physical access to the machine, and time -- except via encryption.
[07:51] <rhoruns> ahh, i see.
[07:52] <anathematic> tetonca: i m aware of that thank you =)

[07:52] <dissection> cafuego: Okay I'm going to give lftp a shot
[07:52] <cerealkilla> Khrajin: any ideas?
[07:52] <setite> ok so i think i got it.. so the internal ip for the rig im tryign to mount a share from is 192.168.1.101
[07:52] <cafuego> dissection: it has tab completion, is just lovely.
[07:53] <makky_> dominussuus- its trying to connect
[07:53] <rhoruns> eboyjr, how do you suggest implementing the anaglyph on the fly? i'm not too familiar with these kind of things :)
[07:53] <setite> now im mounting the share to my /media/core
[07:53] <Fetache33> How can I fix this error: /usr/bin/X11/xauth:  /home/orly/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignore
[07:53] <ozzman> I have been trying to install Divx plug ins for firefox X32 run on ubuntu x86_64 but with no luck.
[07:53] <setite> i dont want to mount just a single shared folder if i can but the actual pc.... so lemme see if this works.. can i pm it to you?
[07:53] <sdouble> setite: using smbmount?
[07:53] <makky_> dominussuus- thank you! and do you know a less resource using browser than FF?
[07:53] <c00i90wn> I'm trying to enlarge my ext3 partition, but the free space on the disk is before the ext3 partition, is it possible to enlarge it? gparted doesn't let me move the partition back
[07:54] <setite> smbmount... dont think so
[07:54] <Khrajin_> tetonca: How can I fix this error: /usr/bin/X11/xauth:  /home/orly/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignore
[07:54] <setite> i did sudo mkdir /media/core
[07:54] <tetonca> I dont know.
[07:54] <wctraxler> terminal for editing a file and save ing it agan
[07:54] <tetonca> I'd find out what user is trying to set .Xauthority
[07:54] <setite> and now im editing the /etc/fstab
[07:54] <Khrajin_> tetonca: How can I do that?
[07:54] <sdouble> ah
[07:54] <setite> im following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[07:54] <showgun> how do i reload usb mouse ?cuz when im in my desktop and then remove my usb mouse then plug it back again,the usb mouse wont work anymore,it will work only when i booted it.
[07:54] <bullgard4> From what original file has been obtained the diff file acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.diff.4 which I found in ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20?
[07:55] <tetonca> Pretty tough to do.  You'd have to catch the process as it was executing to see which user (maybe 'nobody') was using xauth.
[07:55] <dominussuus> makky - You're very welcome.  I am quite pleased with FF myself.  You could try doing some research on swiftfox, which is a pared-down version of ff
[07:55] <tetonca> Khrajin: time to rtfm
[07:55] <makky_> Anyone know a less resource using browser than FF for Ubuntu?
[07:55] <tetonca> jetscreamer: hi.
[07:55] <zyth> makky_, links
[07:55] <balleyne> makky: Epiphany, Swiftfox
[07:56] <makky_> balleyne- in your opinion which is better (more user-friendly)?
[07:56] <robby> I wonder if there are web-sites that use compiled code? like .dll or bin?
[07:56] <setite> god i dont like gaim for irc
[07:56] <setite> i also dont liek this huge resolution
[07:56] <balleyne> makky: I've never actually used Swiftfox myself yet =\  just heard it recommended
[07:56] <tetonca> setite: I use 'naim' here.
[07:56] <setite> but i tried installing nvidia once and everything turned blue
[07:57] <makky_> balleyne- ok thank you ill look into it
[07:57] <balleyne> makky: but it's easy enough to install/uninstall with apt-get, so it's probably worth checking out both to see what you think
[07:57] <tybalt> Anyone familiar with Axis Network Cameras. More importantly a HTTP Auth Bypass exploit
[07:57] <setite> souble does this work
[07:57] <cerealkilla> balleyne: i found gparted on the live cd and im doing it there! thx for the tip..
[07:57] <setite> //192.168.1.101/core  /media/core  smbfs
[07:57] <cerealkilla> late..
[07:57] <vas> hey is anyone here familiar with snort at all, their channel is unresponsive n I just got a quick simple quesiton or 2
[07:57] <setite> the name of the rig on the network is CORE-PC
[07:57] <balleyne> makky: Epiphany works fine for me, but it doesn't have any fancy features - not sure if Swiftfox has more functionality than Epiphany, which is possible *shrugs*
[07:57] <c00i90wn> no one?
[07:57] <setite> so is it supposed to be "//192.168.1.101/CORE-PC  /media/core  smbfs"
[07:57] <balleyne> makky: though I use FF mainly *shrugs*
[07:58] <eboyjr> rhoruns: hahah I really don't know. I just had this awesome idea, knew that Compiz can make Workspaces on a cube and though someone could make a 3D anaglyph manager. I'm really not familiar with programming Windows Managers at all.
[07:58] <setite> oh your name changed colors on me
[07:58] <xtknight> bullgard4, i dont understand the question
[07:58] <setite> stupid gaim
[07:58] <hachaboob> nvidia with desktop effects on current gutsy is very slow
[07:59] <xtknight> eboyjr, put it on the ubuntu ideapool ;)
[07:59] <zyth> hachaboob, #ubuntu+1 for that
[07:59] <makky_> Another question, i am having trouble connecting to my wireless network, i attempt to connect, but fail
[07:59] <mrpoundsign> hello. :)
[07:59] <xtknight> eboyjr, or request it in the compiz-fusion project
[07:59] <eboyjr> xtknight: Tight! I'll do that now.
[07:59] <eboyjr> xtknight: ok!
[07:59] <xtknight> eboyjr, that is indeed a frickin sweet idea btw ;)
[07:59] <setite> can anyoen help me with this samba share thing.. i wanna make sure i do it right... im unsure what the sharename needs to be
[07:59] <rhoruns> does anyone know if it's possible to add a user to multiple user groups?
[07:59] <eboyjr> xtknight: haha thx
[07:59] <xtknight> eboyjr, you could make some money of...just kidding!  this is open source.  haw haw :D
[07:59] <mrpoundsign> whats the command line tool to find out what version of a package you have installed?
[08:00] <eboyjr> xtknight: hahaha ya right!
[08:00] <xtknight> mrpoundsign, dpkg -s pkgname
[08:00] <balleyne> rhoruns: yes, linux is uber-multi-user
[08:00] <dissection> cafuego: Okay I logged into my ftp, and was able to do a directory listing, and download files from my server. How do I upload something to it?
[08:00] <mrpoundsign> xtknight: thanks. :)
[08:01] <rhoruns> balleyne, oh ok. well, i have my main user 'rhoruns'  in the main group 'rhoruns', but how do i also put him in my vbox group?
[08:01] <tetonca> gah.
[08:01] <xtknight> rhoruns, you can use the GNOME groups and users config
[08:01] <Zta> I've got two [Open with "GVIM Text Editor"]  entries in my [Open With]  menu.  Anyone know how the second one got there, and how I remove it?
[08:01] <rhoruns> xtknight ok, thanks. :)
[08:02] <xtknight> rhoruns, or you could use the much more reliable adduser also.  i have heard of the GNOME tool being kinda dangerous under certain conditions.  they haevnt fixed the bug yet, to my knowledge
[08:02] <makky_> i am having trouble connecting to my wireless network, i attempt to connect, but fail
[08:02] <makky_> anyone?
[08:02] <bullgard4> xtknight: I found in ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20 the diff file acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.diff.4. A diff file can be applied to another file in order to restore the original file. What is the filename of the file that I should add to  acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.diff.4 in order to obtain the original file text?
[08:02] <xtknight> !adduser | rhoruns, so maybe this would be a better idea
[08:02] <ubotu> rhoruns, so maybe this would be a better idea: To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo
[08:02] <rhoruns> ok, thanks :)
[08:03] <dominussuus> makky - it's not working nowZ
[08:03] <makky_> dominussuus- it trys to connect
[08:03] <makky_> but fails :S
[08:03] <dominussuus> makky.... hmmm.... can you check your wireless router logsZ
[08:03] <makky_> dominussuus- i type in my SSID, and WPA pass. and it attempts to connect for a few minutes but then nothing
[08:04] <xtknight> bullgard4, it looks like you should apply it right at the kernel tree.
[08:04] <makky_> dominussuus- :S im sorry, i don't know how to check those
[08:04] <ozzman> I have been trying to install Divx plug ins for firefox X32 run on ubuntu x86_64 but with no luck.
[08:04] <dominussuus> it should be in the manual for your wireless router
[08:04] <xtknight> bullgard4, e.g., tar -xzvf <patch.gz>  then "sudo -H -s" then copy the .diff file to /usr/src/.  cd /usr/src/linux.  then "patch -p1 < ../asdf.diff"
[08:04] <xtknight> bullgard4, something like that.  it might be patch -p0
[08:04] <makky_> dominussuus-ok i will try
[08:05] <makky_> dominussuus- thank you i have to sleep now, i will try to finish tomorrow
[08:05] <lladar> Hello, can someone help me with my intel graphics controller drivers?
[08:05] <lladar> My graphics is running very odd.
[08:05] <balleyne> makky: you should be able to go to '192.168.0.1' or '192.168.1.1' or '192.168.2.1' in your browser to get to an admin interface for your router, usually, depending on the brand
[08:06] <balleyne> makky: have you been able to connect from other machines though? are you sure it's a problem with a ubuntu machine and not a weak wireless signal?
[08:06] <bullgard4> xtknight: I need some time to fully understand your answer because this matter is new for me. So I will think about your answer.
[08:06] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok.  what is your end goal with this, though?
[08:06] <xtknight> bullgard4, are you sure you need to do this?
[08:07] <bullgard4> Two of my Ubuntu 7.04 do not recover from suspend-to-RAM.
[08:07] <xtknight> bullgard4, and you know this will fix it?
[08:08] <xtknight> bullgard4,  i have heard to use suspend2 instead of swsuspend for those problems
[08:08] <setite> anyoen have ideas on what to do with vista smb shares
[08:08] <setite> i can view the shares on my xp box.. but not on my vista box
[08:08] <bullgard4> xtknight: Knowing the answer to the question I put will bring me nearer to troubleshoot my Suspend-to-RAM problem myself.
[08:09] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok i can try and walk you through applying that patch

[08:09] <tetonca> bullgard4: play with 'diff' and 'patch' to learn how one patch undoes the other.

[08:13] <bullgard4> xtknight: Yes, in a way. This is, because I want to get the original file's text.
[08:13] <tetonca> dissection: login again, maybe.  Maybe.  I always get confused by ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc .. also the default ~/.bash_profile may need to source ~/.bashrc.
[08:13] <dominussuus> does anybody know anything about fixing fullscreen on games like enemy territory and open arenaZ
[08:13] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok
[08:13] <dominussuus> ?
[08:13] <levander> xtknight: Firefox is running fine.  Why you say I need to restart it?
[08:13] <xtknight> bullgard4, do you have linux-source downloaded
[08:13] <xtknight> levander, if you want to make use of the security updates it must be restarted
[08:13] <bullgard4> xtknight: Yes I have.
[08:14] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> hey folks!
[08:14] <jetscreamer> oh
[08:14] <xtknight> bullgard4, so /usr/src/linux  ?
[08:14] <zack> i even do not see xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[08:14] <jetscreamer> it might only be the gtk stuff
[08:14] <levander> xtknight: It'll get restarted eventually.  I'm just wondering if I'll screw anything up by not restarting it just yet.
[08:14] <xtknight> levander, nope
[08:14] <xtknight> it's fine
[08:14] <pawan> analog clock plugin
[08:14] <lladar> Someone please help me with my graphics issues.  I am using Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Extreme as my graphics engine but when I play games it dosn't work up to code.  Are their special drivers for Ubuntu that I need to be aware of?
[08:14] <dissection> tetonca: If I add all my aliases to .bashrc, its the same as adding it to .bash_profile isn't it?
[08:15] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> hey all trying to install vmare:...this is what i am typeing in can someone tell me whats wrong ( sudo ./vmware-install.plcd vmware-server-distribtar xvfz VMware-server-*.tar.gz)
[08:15] <levander> xtknight: great, thanks - I guess that because I've already loaded Firefox into memory, so the fact that's what's on the disk is out of synch with what's in memory doesn't matter?
[08:15] <robby> Anyone in here do Web design??
[08:15] <jetscreamer> 915resolution package and i810 driver
[08:15] <xtknight> levander, nope doesnt matter
[08:15] <levander> robby: #web
[08:15] <dominussuus> robby - kinda, why?
[08:15] <dissection> robby: A little
[08:15] <tetonca> dissection: basically .bash_profile is called when you get a login shell and .bashrc isn't.  I *think*.  It all has to do whether a shell is a login shell or not.
[08:15] <jeff_> where can i get some good xchat skins
[08:15] <robby> Can some pages or web apps be compiled?
[08:16] <xtknight> robby, no
[08:16] <bullgard4> xtknight: My /usr/src/ directory contains 7 directories and 1 file. The name of that file is linux-source-2.6.20.tar.bz2.
[08:16] <holycow> jeff_, the same place you get gnome skins
[08:16] <xtknight> they can't be compiled into binary
[08:16] <holycow> art.gnome.org and other googleable places
[08:16] <tetonca> dissection: In all my years using bash I've always made sure I /had/ a login shell if interactive use was intended.
[08:16] <dissection> tetonca: By shell you mean remote access?
[08:16] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok.  type "sudo -H -s" this will give you root access.
[08:16] <levander> robby: Not HTML pages, although HTML pages can be cached when they are generated from a dynamic web application running on the server.
[08:16] <xtknight> bullgard4, now type "tar xjvf linux-source-2.6.20.tar.bz2"
[08:17] <levander> robby: You don't compile HTML though.
[08:17] <tetonca> dissection: a shell is a place to type commands that get executed, by searching your $PATH for those commands.
[08:17] <holycow> heh
[08:17] <jetscreamer> unless it's for ms help
[08:17] <dominussuus> robby - the reason why they can't is that the web page would need to have the browser compled with it in order to interpret the html
[08:17] <jeff_> holycow, i dont use gnome, i use xfce :)
[08:17] <holycow> jeff_, same answer
[08:17] <jeff_> so i dont use gnome skins
[08:17] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> anyone have thoughts? about this  ( sudo ./vmware-install.plcd vmware-server-distribtar xvfz VMware-server-*.tar.gz
[08:17] <dominussuus> robby - which completely defeats the purpose of everything
[08:17] <jeff_> nor do i use xfce skins
[08:18] <holycow> jeff_, same answer
[08:18] <jeff_> i have the original setup that came with linux mint
[08:18] <robby> olol
[08:18] <holycow> when you run gnome apps that depend on gnome librarires you are running gnome underneath
[08:18] <holycow> thus
[08:18] <holycow> same answer
[08:18] <robby> good point domi
[08:18] <holycow> install a gnome theme you get your xchat "skin"
[08:18] <jeff_> i see. so where should i get gnome and xfce skins?
[08:18] <jetscreamer> apt-cache search
[08:19] <holycow> well i gave you one gnome address, i have no idea about xfce
[08:19] <eboyjr> Check it out everyone!!!!!!!!: http://forum.compiz.org/viewtopic.php?p=10153
[08:19] <levander> robby: HTML files are just like MS-Word .doc files.  They contain text.  They are not instructions for the computer's processor to run.  You don't compile them.
[08:19] <jeff_> im still somewhat of a nub, sorry for my incompetence
[08:19] <robby> I guess the whole interpret lang.
[08:19] <tetonca> dissection: try 'script' and echo a few shell variables; try 'alias' as a command.  Script does /not/ give a login shell near as I can tell.
[08:19] <robby> ran passed me
[08:19] <dissection> tetonca: Okay, so I'm using terminal... Thats my shell? See I checked how to make aliases and it was written on that webpage that I should add it to .bash_profile .. but the other day someone here told me to add it to .bashrc so I did that even this time. My alias still works so its confusing me what difference it would have made if I had added the alias to .bash_profile
[08:19] <jetscreamer> either/or works it seems
[08:20] <pawan> how to install xchat skins
[08:20] <jetscreamer> i've always added to .bashrc myself
[08:20] <Gnea> levander: but they are required to be run through an interpreter in order to be viewed, and .doc files are actually binary files while html files are straight text
[08:20] <jetscreamer> might just be a gtk thing not sure
[08:20] <WGGM1> anyone able to help me with wine.. my sound does not work.. winecfg gives an error when selecting the audio tab. "Driver not available" would you like to remove alsa from registry.. any thoughts???
[08:20] <tetonca> dissection: a terminal is a shell (a bash shell by default) for these purposes.
[08:21] <Gnea> !wine > WGGM1
[08:21] <Khrajin_> tetonca: So I got a vnc server running with X11 running, now I'm having difficulties getting KDM/KDE to run
[08:21] <robby> I see php.  Is PHP another high level lang?
[08:21] <bullgard4> xtknight: This took a while. Now It's done.
[08:21] <eboyjr> robby: ya
[08:21] <Gnea> robby: php is like asp
[08:21] <robby> like for scripting?
[08:21] <vas> hey I have my snort outputing its log files to a folder in my apache's www... but when I try to access it in my browser it says I do not have permission to access the file on the sever.. I chmod 777 the folder but still no luck
[08:22] <eboyjr> robby: CGI Web SCripting
[08:22] <Gnea> robby: it's used for generating dynamic web pages
[08:22] <balleyne> I've got a gstreamer question (I think) if anyone can help - has anyone been having trouble in Feisty? It seems to crash when I play certain .mp3s (in the exact same place)
[08:22] <tetonca> Khrajin: I think it'd work the same; you have to figure out what starts KDE.
[08:22] <vas> nvm
[08:22] <dominussuus> robby - what are you trying to accomplish? are you trying to keep a page safe from prying eyes?
[08:22] <vas> fixd it
[08:22] <balleyne> and I think it's gstreamer because it crashes in Rhythmbox/Banshee, but not XMMS/Amarok or from the command line with mpg321...
[08:22] <Khrajin_> My main issue is when I do 'startx' i get Fatal server error:
[08:22] <Khrajin_> no screens found
[08:22] <WGGM1> Gnea: did you snd the bot priv message?
[08:22] <sober-winux> hi,did anyone compile hydra yourself , during the ./configure ,the console say have not found SAP/R3, librfc/saprfc.h  ,but i search in google, these files can not download anywhere ,and  do not know what 's these files ,and not websit to download ,anyone has resolved this problem
[08:22] <tetonca> Khrajin you just said you had it working.  why startx?
[08:22] <jeff_> so let me get this straight, Xchat is a gnome app. i can DL a gnome skin and still use xfce for all my buttons and stuff, correct? it wont make me use the gnome desktop, just change the way my gnome apps look?
[08:22] <Gnea> WGGM1: i told the bot to pm you
[08:23] <Gnea> !wine
[08:23] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:23] <Khrajin_> tetonca: I have X11 with a gray background and a terminal box
[08:23] <pawan> xchat skins
[08:23] <TheNo1Yeti> What would be the easiest way to turn everything a user entered into lowercase?  I know how to do it in bash but php seems like it wouldn't be the same
[08:23] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok one sec
[08:23] <Gnea> Khrajin_: then it's working just fine. edit your ~/.xinitrc
[08:23] <WGGM1> Gnea: for the link?
[08:23] <tetonca> Khrajin: startx starts X but you're already in X so that makes no sense to do it again.
[08:23] <TheNo1Yeti> rawr, wrong channel
[08:23] <Gnea> WGGM1: yes
[08:23] <bullgard4> xtknight: ok.
[08:23] <Khrajin_> tetonca: oh..
[08:24] <tetonca> Khrajin: what Gnea said.
[08:24] <tetonca> edit .xinitrc and see what that brings you.  'xterm' by itself is a fine starter .xinitrc.
[08:24] <balleyne> gstreamer troubles anyone?
[08:24] <Gambrinus> TheNo1Yeti: perhaps CSS text-transform: lowercase applied to the form.
[08:24] <levander> TheNo1Yeti: You need to go to php.net and familiarize yourself with the documentation for the standard PHP API's.  You're not gonna get anywhere in PHP without it.
[08:24] <dissection> Anyone know how I can upload a file to my ftp server using lftp? Whats the command for that?
[08:24] <jetscreamer> pawan: this might get you going:  http://xchataqua.sourceforge.net/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome
[08:24] <robby> domi: honestly, the past day or 2 been manipulating URL's seeing what I could fined or get into.  Not to change, just seeing what can be done.
[08:24] <Gnea> balleyne: explain
[08:25] <jetscreamer> err
[08:25] <jetscreamer> pawan: shorten that url:  http://xchataqua.sourceforge.net/
[08:25] <WGGM1> Gnea: thanks for the link, but ive already searched for a solution to my issue
[08:25] <balleyne> Gnea: Banshee and Rhytmbox are crashing on some of my mp3s since upgrading to Feisty
[08:25] <balleyne> Gnea: same spot every time, and it's a seg fault
[08:25] <jetscreamer> http://www.google.com/linux?q=skin+xchat&restrict=linux
[08:25] <jetscreamer> pawan: ^^
[08:25] <Gnea> WGGM1: i don't know then... works fine here... is something else hogging the sound card?
[08:25] <TheNo1Yeti> Gambrinus & levander: Thanks, didn't realize I was in this channel.  And I figured it out
[08:25] <balleyne> Gnea: XMMS/Amaork/mpg321 do not crash, which is why I think it may be gstreamer? (does that make sense?)
[08:25] <pawan> yes
[08:25] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok how did you know it was rc1 that you wanted?
[08:26] <dominussuus> robby - right.  Well remember that HTML/CSS is simply the interface to whatever application is being run and so there's no reason to secure it
[08:26] <Gnea> balleyne: what procedure did you follow to 'upgrade' to feisty?
[08:26] <Khrajin_> I don't see any ~/.init files
[08:26] <dominussuus> robby - but the implementation is all server-side and that's where you can do the hacking
[08:26] <Gnea> Khrajin_: it's ~/.xinitrc  the spelling is absolute.
[08:27] <balleyne> Gnea: I just used the upgrade manager, I think it was 'gksudo update-manager -c' or something like that, and just let that handle the upgrade for me
[08:27] <isaac> how do you create a root account?
[08:27] <dominussuus> robby - so whatever you're trying to secure or break, go to the server rather than mess with the HTML
[08:27] <tetonca> Khrajin: you can create .xinirc with simply 'echo "xterm" > ~/.xinitrc' but that will OVERWRITE an existing ~/.xinitrc, not what you want if one is there.
[08:27] <Gnea> Khrajin_: if it's not there, create it
[08:27] <dissection> cafuego: Are you still there?
[08:27] <Khrajin_> No such file
[08:27] <balleyne> Gnea: same problem on my gf's laptop, which I upgraded in the same way, though she's using Xubuntu (again, just with Banshe/Rhythmbox though)
[08:27] <robby> what are soe common server side langs?
[08:28] <bulmer> java
[08:28] <balleyne> php
[08:28] <xtknight> bullgard4, here is my attempt at reversing the patch.  it goes pretty well but there were some problems.  http://rafb.net/p/yvBPXG21.html
[08:28] <bullgard4> xtknight: I am not sure that I want rc1. I only found that notice in a Mailing list, directed from Len Brown to Linus Thorwalds, where I hoped to obtain from the original source code. But RC1 is not obligatory, I believe.
[08:28] <robby> is java not compiled? i know there is jscript
[08:28] <xtknight> bullgard4, what file do you want the source code to, exactly?  The DIFF file modifies about 30 different files.
[08:28] <lladar> Someone please help me with my graphics issues.  I am using Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Extreme as my graphics engine but when I play games it dosn't work up to code.  Are their special drivers for Ubuntu that I need to be aware of?
[08:29] <dominussuus> robby - it largely depends on what you're doing.  Any compiled or interpreted language can be used serside
[08:29] <Gnea> balleyne: you didn't do it right
[08:29] <robby> crap
[08:29] <balleyne> robby: Java and Flash are compiled languages that are used sometimes in web applications
[08:29] <Gnea> !upgrade | balleyne
[08:29] <ubotu> balleyne: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:29] <dominussuus> javascript is not java and is interpreted clientside
[08:29] <tetonca> lladar: edit the Xorg.conf file
[08:29] <bullgard4> xtknight: Just a moment, please.
[08:29] <WGGM1> Im having an issue with ALSA inside of WINE. When running 'winecfg' and selecting the 'Audio' tab, I recieve a dialog box stating: "Found drive in registry that is not available! Remove "alsa" from registry?" Any thoughts??
[08:30] <lladar> What do I need to config it to? I am a linux noob. XD
[08:30] <tetonca> lladar: that's not really a linux question.  It's an X11 (Xorg) question.
[08:30] <Gnea> WGGM1: what did you search for?
[08:30] <dominussuus> netscape designed javascript and named it such to take advantage of the popularity Java proper was having at the time
[08:30] <lladar> Fine, but what exactly do I have to do?
[08:30] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: ask in #winehq
[08:30] <isaac> i need to create  a root account, how do i do it?
[08:30] <isaac> i forgot the commands
[08:30] <robby> hmm
[08:30] <isaac> i forgot the command*
[08:30] <tetonca> lladar: I'm just saying this isn't really the obscure hardware expert area for X11 servers.
[08:31] <balleyne> Gnea:.. that's what I did though? just used the update manager, right? what did I do wrong?
[08:31] <Gnea> isaac: no you don't, it's already there.
[08:31] <xtknight> !root | isaac
[08:31] <Gambrinus> lladar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto#head-c7979448ab81077f16349d3ca4be7aa5a5a52de2
[08:31] <ubotu> isaac: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:31] <tas> can some1 help me? im trying to install xfire but when i use wine to open it i keep getting an error:
[08:31] <tas> the error is "Unable to elevate, error 2"
[08:31] <Frogzoo> isaac: you do not need a root account - use sudo
[08:31] <isaac> ok, then useing sudo, how do i use sudo when im doing ftp
[08:31] <Gnea> balleyne: you typed it out wrong. you need to follow directions to the letter.
[08:31] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: i have.. they referred me to the ubuntu channel cause they think im missing 32bit alsa libs
[08:31] <dominussuus> the only relation between javascript and java is that they have similar grammar, but that's it
[08:31] <Enselic> tas: I suggest asking in #winehq
[08:31] <bullgard4> xtknight: drivers/acpi/battery.c
[08:32] <balleyne> Gnea: sorry, I didn't type it wrong, I just typed it a couple months ago
[08:32] <isaac> because i cant access a bunch of things someone else put on my ftp server because they havnt changed the writes on it, and i cant change that without root, or sudo
[08:32] <Gnea> balleyne: well, go through it and try the entire thing again, it may have missed something.
[08:32] <Frogzoo> isaac: so use sudo
[08:32] <isaac> how
[08:32] <xtknight> !info lib32asound
[08:32] <tetonca> isaac: 'sudo -s' gives a root shell.
[08:32] <isaac> im useing filezilla
[08:32] <balleyne> Gnea: alright, thanks
[08:32] <ubotu> Package lib32asound does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:32] <Gnea> isaac: sudo <command>
[08:32] <xtknight> !find lib32asound
[08:33] <Frogzoo> isaac: how is it people can upload files owned as root???
[08:33] <xtknight> WGGM1, it's lib32asound, libasound32 or something
[08:33] <robby> server side.... how the hell am i even going to go about tryin to get on the other side?  or extract
[08:33] <ubotu> Package/file lib32asound does not exist in feisty
[08:33] <WGGM1> xtknight: its lib32asound2 which i already have
[08:33] <isaac> frogzoo: no they upload it as only writeable by owner
[08:33] <Gnea> !language | robby
[08:33] <ubotu> robby: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:33] <Gambrinus> Gnea, isaac: i believe he is using an ftp client and can't use sudo
[08:33] <xtknight> WGGM1, hm i'm afraid i can't help you then
[08:33] <nicholaspaul> Can someone help me with my wifi woes? When i ifconfig, it says I have ath0 and wifi0 - what is wifi0??
[08:33] <bullgard4> xtknight: And Documentation/thinkpad-acpi.txt
[08:33] <WGGM1> *cry*
[08:33] <robby> ooops
[08:33] <robby> sorry
[08:34] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: sudo chown -r  or sudo chmod -R
[08:34] <WGGM1> Frogzoo wrong person
[08:34] <tetonca> Gambrinus: he can 'sudo -s' and ftp as root.
[08:34] <isaac> gambrinus: yeah im useing filezilla
[08:34] <dominussuus> robby - learn to talk to the server at the other end (which requires knowing what server it is)
[08:34] <jeff_> so if i want xchat to look better i need to DL a gnome skin? or a xchat skin
[08:34] <Gnea> isaac: you can't ftp in as root.
[08:34] <Frogzoo> isaac: sudo chown -R  or sudo chmod -R
[08:34] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: can you play music ?
[08:34] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok
[08:34] <robby> and its OS
[08:34] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: yes, and skype. my sound is good, just not in WINE
[08:35] <Gnea> isaac: if you have root access, you can edit the restrictions for the ftp server, if you're using a decent daemon
[08:35] <robby> what you said
[08:35] <xtknight> bullgard4, goto /usr/src
[08:35] <dominussuus> robby - the OS is irrelevant unless you're breaking into the website, which is highly discouraged
[08:35] <xtknight> bullgard4, then type "wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20/acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz"
[08:35] <tas> can some1 help me? im trying to install xfire but when i use wine to open it i keep getting an error:
[08:35] <tas> the error is "Unable to elevate, error 2"
[08:35] <tetonca> isaac: you need root access on the machine you're trying to ftp /into/ .. I think .. is the jist of it here.
[08:35] <isaac> gnea: im useing vsftp
[08:35] <Ashfire908> how do i set the time using a command
[08:35] <Typwn> Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with libqt3c102-mt. I've tried installing it but it's saying that it's obsolete, problem is I need it for QJoyPad. Any ideas on how I can get this working?
[08:35] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: well it might be a packaging problem if it works on other distros but not ubuntu
[08:35] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: this is feisty?
[08:35] <Gambrinus> tetonca: filezilla, his FTP client, may not allow him to use command line
[08:36] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: aye, amd64 7.04
[08:36] <echosystm> im having trouble setting up the correct resolution. at the moment i am on 1680x1050 @ 55hz or something, but i want it to be 60hz because my monitor is making a strange humming noise
[08:36] <xtknight> Typwn, did you try installing "sudo apt-get install libqt3-mt" ?
[08:36] <Gnea> isaac: locate the vsftp documentation (probably on the website or in /usr/share/doc/vsftp) and see what you can do
[08:36] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: you're running 64 bit ??
[08:36] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: yes
[08:36] <echosystm> how do i know what the vertical/horizontal sync ranges should be?
[08:36] <tetonca> Gambrinus: I had it wrong anyway.  He wants to login as root via ftp I think. ;)
[08:36] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: didn't think wine ran at 64 bit at all - you're using a 32bit chroot?
[08:36] <isaac> gnea: i know were it is, but how do i change the privelages for users.   like my main user has root privalages basicly
[08:36] <Gnea> echosystm: if it's a newer monitor, they should be detected
[08:37] <echosystm> they were detected wrongly
[08:37] <nicholaspaul> echosystm if you know the brand/model you can check the manufacturers site, or manual.
[08:37] <setite> yoyo
[08:37] <echosystm> i can onlt get 50hz :(
[08:37] <Typwn> xtknight: Yes I have, but as I said it gives me a message saying it can't be install as it doesn't exist or is obsolete, then it says it is mentioned by libqt3
[08:37] <echosystm> ok
[08:37] <setite> ok im on xchat now
[08:37] <dominussuus> robby - go bug the people at #apache on irc.freenode.net.  They can probably help you better
[08:37] <setite> this is better
[08:37] <Gnea> isaac: why?
[08:37] <setite> i dont like feisty
[08:37] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: negative. installed ia32-libs and runs. Diablo 2 + LOD (expansion) are installed, runs fine, just no sound
[08:37] <lladar> I am reconfiguring my xserver-xorg and it is asking me what x server driver or whatever.  Which one do I choose?  I have an intel 945GM/GMS/940GML Extreme Chipset for my laptop.
[08:37] <Typwn> echosystem: You need to disable TwinView
[08:37] <Gnea> dominussuus: this *is* freenode.
[08:37] <xtknight> Typwn, wait, huh?  you said libqt3c102-mt was the pkg right?  does libqt3-mt replace that?
[08:37] <isaac> gnea: how would i change the privelages?
[08:37] <setite> so far its harder for me to use then older ubuntus
[08:37] <nicholaspaul> can someone help me with my wifi?
[08:37] <hinogi> i have a problem with the xorg-driver-fglx ubuntu is using mesa instead
[08:37] <robby> LOL im going to do just that.  thanx domi
[08:37] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: but also would be 64 bit libs??
[08:38] <dominussuus> Gnea - well that will make it even easier :)
[08:38] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: but alsa would be 64 bit libs??
[08:38] <WGGM1> Frogzoo: lib32asound2
[08:38] <Gnea> isaac: sorry, can't tell you without a legitimate reason. that's a security violation.
[08:38] <Typwn> xtknight: Correct, but QJoyPad is dependant on libqt3c102-mt. I had this working before but I reformatted and didn't think to back it up.
[08:38] <bullgard4> xtknight: It responded: "... 08:37:26 (58.20 KB/s) - acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz gespeichert [54245] "
[08:38] <jeff_> so if i want xchat to look better i need to DL a gnome skin? or a xchat skin
[08:38] <dominussuus> robby - no problem
[08:38] <sdouble> what virtual machine software do you guys recommend for running xp?
[08:38] <hinogi> http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/12994/
[08:38] <lladar> I am reconfiguring my xserver-xorg and it is asking me what x server driver or whatever.  Which one do I choose?  I have an intel 945GM/GMS/940GML Extreme Chipset for my laptop.
[08:38] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok now type "zcat acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz > acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz"
[08:38] <WGGM1> sdouble: VMWare Workstation works prety well
[08:38] <Frogzoo> WGGM1: ok, dunno
[08:38] <xtknight> bullgard4, this will extract it
[08:38] <hinogi> can someone help me analyse the problem with the ati drivers?
[08:39] <isaac> gnea: wait what?? ok, so i cant even open a folder on my ftp server useing filezilla because its written to deny access to anyone that isnt the owner
[08:39] <Typwn> hinogi: It's ATI
[08:39] <balleyne> lladar: do you see 'intel'? or maybe 'i810' as a second choice? (though I'm no expert)
[08:39] <isaac> gnea: so if i didnt make it, i cant read it
[08:39] <Gnea> isaac: oh ok
[08:39] <tetonca> isaac: man chown
[08:39] <hinogi> yea i know
[08:39] <Gnea> isaac: no need to grant root privs to that user then, just make the dir world read/writeable
[08:39] <lladar> balleyne: I see i810 but no intel.  Should I choose the i810?
[08:39] <hinogi> but it worked times before
[08:40] <Gnea> isaac: chmod 777 dir/ && chmod +t dir/
[08:40] <xtknight> Typwn, want a quick cheesy solution?  you can add "libqt3c102-mt" to the Provides: line of "libqt3-mt" if you know that that's the right package
[08:40] <balleyne> lladar: yes, as long as your comfortable with possibly having to reconfigure xorg again if it doesn't work - though it should
[08:40] <isaac> gnea: can you put it so all files that go on the server are readable/writeable
[08:40] <Typwn> xtknight: How do I do that?
[08:40] <FeistyNux> Hiya- is it possible to change the my panels' text on things like the main menu and window chooser from black to say, white?
[08:40] <balleyne> lladar: my understanding is that i810 is depracted and being replaced by intel, so i810 should still work, but it's no longer supported, so it'd be better to move to 'intel'
[08:40] <bullgard4> xtknight: It responded: "zcat: acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz: unexpected end of file"
[08:40] <xtknight> bullgard4, hmm
[08:41] <xtknight> bullgard4, woops
[08:41] <balleyne> lladar: I think you can... "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-intel-video"... though I'm not sure if I have the package name right
[08:41] <dominussuus> FeistyNux - that's all in your window preferences.  Are you using U- or Ku- buntuZ
[08:41] <bullgard4> xtknight: I do not know the interjection 'woops'. What does it mean?
[08:41] <xtknight> bullgard4, please type this instead... zcat acpi-release-20070126-2.6.20.diff.gz > acpi-release-20070126-2.6.20.diff
[08:41] <xtknight> bullgard4, it means i made a silly mistake ;)
[08:41] <Mo0oSaH> hi my azureus keeps shutting down everytime i open it..
[08:41] <dominussuus> ggaaahh.... I'll master this Dvorak thingy :P
[08:41] <xtknight> bullgard4, more commonly known as "whoops"
[08:41] <xtknight> or..oops
[08:41] <isaac> gnea: so if i wanted all files under /home to be readable/writeable to all users.  chmod 777 /home && chmod +t /home                  ?
[08:42] <tetonca> whoops means I almost slipped and fell on that wet floor
[08:42] <xtknight> Typwn, umm..also are you sure there aren't packages from qjoypad?
[08:42] <xtknight> for*
[08:42] <Typwn> xtknight: I'm sure.
[08:42] <setite> hey all what is the sharename in samba
[08:42] <setite> the name of the pc or the actual shared folder as seen on the network
[08:42] <dominussuus> Mo0o - fire up a terminal and type "azureus".  What does it spit out when it fails?
[08:42] <tetonca> or spilled a drink.  it's a slip.
[08:42] <FeistyNux> dominussuus: using U-. i've tried my window preferences and there isn't an option for changing the text colour
[08:42] <balleyne> setite: I believe it's the name of the shared folder
[08:42] <balleyne> setite: I'm pretty sure*
[08:42] <xtknight> Typwn, ok this is sort of a last resort, but try this.  "gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/status"
[08:43] <bullgard4> xtknight: It responds: "zcat: acpi-release-20070126-2.6.20.diff.gz: No such file or directory."
[08:43] <setite> do i have to enter the whole thing... ???
[08:43] <setite> example...
[08:43] <xtknight> bullgard4, okay you will have to do wget again
[08:43] <Gnea> isaac: that rather defeats the purpose of /home
[08:43] <xtknight> Typwn, btw i would back that file up.  it's easy to mess up there
[08:43] <Typwn> xtknight: Now what?
[08:43] <setite> i have a file thats location shows as this in the properties "smb://customer-47968e/Downloads"
[08:43] <isaac> gnea: i was useing it as a example
[08:43] <lladar> Thank you Balleyne.  (It was -video-intel )
[08:43] <setite> now im not sure what im to put in the fstab
[08:43] <xtknight> Typwn, ok now find "Package: libqt3-mt"
[08:43] <dominussuus> FeistyNux... that's almost certainly because whatever scheme you're using doesn't support alternate colours
[08:43] <balleyne> lladar: np :)
[08:44] <Typwn> xtknight: Done
[08:44] <Gnea> isaac: find dir/ -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \ && find dir/ -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \  <--- do that too
[08:44] <setite> ive got the following in the fstab balleyne
[08:44] <setite> /192.168.1.100/customer-47968e  /media/dad  smbfs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode  0  0
[08:44] <xtknight> Typwn, now under the Replaces: line, add this.
[08:44] <xtknight> Typwn, Provides: libqt3c102-mt
[08:44] <dominussuus> FeistyNux - unfortunately, Gnome doesn't have the same window properties as the Redmond-based OS does - what you see is usually what you're stuck with
[08:44] <balleyne> setite: then... I believe the server is 'customer-etc...' and the sharenamed is 'Downloads' ? I think... someone correct me if I'm wrong
[08:44] <bullgard4> xtknight: I have done wget and then zcat. zcat replies: "zcat: acpi-release-20070126-2.6.20.diff.gz: No such file or directory."
[08:44] <xtknight> bullgard4, you did wget again?
[08:45] <dawn> ha sanyone tried running GWT in ubuntu 7.04?
[08:45] <setite> k ill try that
[08:45] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok i messed up again.  sorry.  wrong name.
[08:45] <Typwn> xtknight: Remove the libqt3c102-mt from replaces?
[08:45] <isaac> gnea: will that change the current status of the files?
[08:45] <FeistyNux> dominussuus: we're talking about the same window prefs menu, right? the black text on my top and bottom panels, I can't change that?
[08:45] <Gnea> isaac: that will change the permissions on all files and directories within the target directory, respectively
[08:45] <xtknight> Typwn, no, add a line under ReplaceS: that says Provides: libqt3c102-mt
[08:45] <Typwn> xtknight: Fonr
[08:45] <Gnea> isaac: if you don't do it that way, you'll foobar the whole structure
[08:45] <Typwn> xtknight: Done*
[08:45] <xtknight> Typwn, ok save the file
[08:45] <setite> ok well this time i only got one error.. i think it worked
[08:45] <Typwn> xtknight: Done*
[08:45] <isaac> gnea: do i replace dir/ with the directory i want to sahre
[08:45] <Typwn> xtknight: Done
[08:46] <Gnea> isaac: right.
[08:46] <dominussuus> Feisty - I think that's set unchangeably by the settings
[08:46] <xtknight> bullgard4, zcat acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz > acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff
[08:46] <xtknight> bullgard4, that should be the correct command! :)
[08:46] <xtknight> Typwn, alright now try installing qjoypad?
[08:46] <balleyne> setite: yeah, 'customer-blahblah' should be synonymous with the local ip basically... it's just the hostname vs the ip address, just like in the WWW
[08:46] <setite> balleyne,  that was the key... its working from the xp box now
[08:46] <dominussuus> FeistyNux... actually, stand by...
[08:47] <balleyne> setite: so, you could specify by host name, or by ip address, either should work (hostname is better if the ip isn't static, otherwise it shouldn't make a difference)
[08:47] <balleyne> setite: awesome :)
[08:47] <setite> balleyne,  any idea why i cant access vista shares
[08:47] <bullgard4> xtknight: It responds: "zcat: acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz: unexpected end of file."
[08:47] <isaac> gnea: so if i dont put that in the config file, its foobar.   why dont they put that in the documentation?
[08:47] <Typwn> xtknight: I still need to get libqt3c102-mt
[08:47] <xtknight> bullgard4, it seems to be downloading incorrectly
[08:47] <balleyne> setite: not really, I pride myself on having very little Vista experience, so I'm afraid I can't really help you much there =\
[08:47] <isaac> gnea: i pretty much installed it like it says on the documentation site, and assumed it would work ok.
[08:47] <xtknight> Typwn, wait a minute are you compiling?
[08:48] <dissection> Could someone tell me how can I upload a directory using lftp?
[08:48] <bullgard4> xtknight: What is downloading incorrectly?
[08:48] <Typwn> xtknight: No it's a dpkg but it doesn't COME with libqt3c102-mt
[08:48] <setite> well i read i have to have samba 3.0blah..  i just updated everything so i assume i do have it
[08:48] <xtknight> bullgard4, ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.20/acpi-release-20060707-2.6.20-rc1.diff.gz
[08:48] <dominussuus> there's a very simple fix to any Vista problem.  From the recovery console, type FDISK /F. :P
[08:48] <Gnea> isaac: hehehe, no no no, those aren't configuration directives, you need to run those with sudo on the commandline
[08:48] <FeistyNux> dominussuus: i have transparent panels with a dark blue background; i don't want to opaque a coloured panel otherwise it just looks like crap if you get what i mean
[08:48] <xtknight> bullgard4, you need to place this in your /usr/src/  folder
[08:48] <setite> yea simple fixes arent what i want
[08:48] <balleyne> setite: did you update smbfs package too? I believe that's used to mount (and not 'samba', which I believe is used to share)
[08:48] <isaac> gnea: wow im lost, ok ill run those command lines. ill yell if im lost
[08:49] <Gnea> isaac: the && just means "don't run the second find until the first find has finished exectuting properly, otherwise exit and don't run the second find."
[08:49] <setite> if i wanted simple i would install windows vista on my htpc instead of ubuntu
[08:49] <dominussuus> Feisty - I'm with you... I know that Gnome is pretty restrictive about customising eye candy, I'm just seeing *how* restrictive
[08:49] <balleyne> setite: "sudo apt-get upgrade smbfs" should make sure you have the most recent version
[08:49] <setite> balleyne,  well i installed it 15 mins ago
[08:49] <Gnea> setite: sudo apt-get install smbfs
[08:49] <Gnea> upgrade is a system-wide argument
[08:49] <isaac> gnea: yeah i dont understand code, so pretty much all the code you sent to me is a different language
[08:49] <Typwn> xtknight: No it's a dpkg but it doesn't come with libqt3c102-mt. Should I remove it from the replaces line in gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/status
[08:49] <balleyne> setite: lol, nm then
[08:49] <setite> yea Gnea thats what i did... smbfs is installed
[08:50] <setite> yea balleyne good call though...
[08:50] <xtknight> Typwn, hmm you can try that, i guess.  maybe remove it from Conflicts too
[08:50] <balleyne> Gnea: you can use upgrade for single packages though
[08:50] <dominussuus> FeistyNux - I think I'm right.  There's a hack you can try at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=219001
[08:50] <setite> i really do like vista as opposed to xp but they really buggered SMB sharing which is the most important feature to me
[08:50] <Gnea> isaac: sudo find dir/ -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \ && find dir/ -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \
[08:51] <Gnea> balleyne: wrong.
[08:51] <dominussuus> FeistyNux - just substitute the colours for what you want - you do know your hex colour codes, don't you?
[08:51] <setite> oh.. i have no audio either
[08:51] <FeistyNux> dominussuus: thanks. =) yep, i know my hex
[08:51] <jetscreamer> everybody writes color codes on their forearms don't they?
[08:51] <balleyne> Gnea: true true, just digging through the man pages, I was mistaken
[08:51] <Gnea> balleyne: upgrade will install the newest versions of ALL packages that it finds after you run apt-get update
[08:51] <joakim> Is there a easy way of making my "File System" partition larger?
[08:52] <Gnea> balleyne: i've been using debian for nearly a decade, i'm pretty sure ;)
[08:52] <claesson92> IS BOCHS an emulator?
[08:52] <Gnea> claesson92: yes.
[08:53] <balleyne> Gnea: haha, yeah, my mistake - is there a way to upgrade a single package then? will install check for the latest version if already installed?
[08:53] <claesson92> Gnea: ok, thx
[08:53] <xtknight> bullgard4, here, this is what i get when i reverse it for drivers/acpi/battery.c: http://rafb.net/p/Osk6oa46.html
[08:53] <Gnea> balleyne: just apt-get update && apt-get install <packagename>  :)
[08:53] <xtknight> bullgard4, i didn't see the thinkpad-acpi Documentation file.
[08:53] <balleyne> Gnea: *nodding head* makes sense, thanks :)
[08:53] <joakim> I started todownload a large torrent but there is not enough space on my device, how do I make the "File System" partition larger?
[08:53] <arso_> hey guys, what can i use to unrar?

[08:56] <jeff_> guys im using emerald to manage my xfce themes. they only seem tp really change the way the windows look. if i want to change the look of xchat and other apps, how do i do it
[08:56] <PanzerMKZ> yummy the bot oholds the answers
[08:56] <xtknight> bullgard4, sorry.  i must go to bed now.  but good luck.  to reverse a patch you type "sudo -H -s", then place the patch (.diff) in /usr/src, and then go in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/.  now type patch -R -p1 < ../acpi-support.diff
[08:56] <setite> hey whats this "Could not resolve mount point /media/core
[08:56] <setite> "
[08:57] <isaac> gnea: "missing argument to '-exec'
[08:57] <jetscreamer> you have nothing named core under /media
[08:57] <jetscreamer> md /media/core
[08:57] <jetscreamer> err mkdir
[08:58] <isaac> gnea: "missing argument to '-exec'"  is that something i did wrong. or whats that about
[08:58] <Ashfire908> hey, everytime i try to run a live cd on my server, it dumps me onto a command line. what i get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30874/
[08:58] <sauvin> I'm running ubuntu under a generic 386 kernel, I believe, and am about to download some codecs from the mplayer home page. There's an entry for "linux AMD64", which agrees with my cpu's description (AMD Turion 64), if I'm not mistaken. I want the 386 Linux versions, correct?
[08:58] <setite> yea i have it there and i see in in /media.. however its a page instead of a folder icon
[08:58] <setite> ill redo it
[08:58] <kahrytan> What can play a MP3 CD?
[08:59] <setite> how do i delete a directory
[08:59] <jetscreamer> many things
[08:59] <sauvin> Kahrytan, damn near anything. Whatcha got?
[08:59] <jetscreamer> rm -R
[08:59] <setite> my dvd player can play an mp3 cd
[08:59] <Enselic> setite: rm -r
[08:59] <setite> so can my car stereo
[08:59] <kahrytan> sauvin: Audacious can't
[08:59] <setite> Enselic,  so what... sudo rm -r /media/core
[08:59] <sauvin> It can't? Wow.
[08:59] <sauvin> so... what else you got?
[09:00] <MrKeuner> hi, how can I change the icon of a file type? user-level and system-wide?
[09:00] <Enselic> setite: sudo umount /media/core
[09:00] <jetscreamer> edit the icon
[09:00] <jetscreamer> :o
[09:00] <Enselic> setite: would probably work
[09:00] <dominussuus> sauvin - you sure you're running i386 on a 64?  Does the kernel let you do that?
[09:00] <Enselic> setite: because you have not created a directory under /media, right?
[09:00] <balleyne> setite: if it's not a directory, you don't need the "-r" bit, but it will still work
[09:00] <MrKeuner> jetscreamer: once more and you'll be ignored
[09:00] <kahrytan> XMMS and Audacious can't play mp3 cds
[09:00] <setite> Enselic, its an actual folder i created there
[09:01] <rhoruns> can anyone help me get my sound working? i have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
[09:01] <setite> Enselic,  i thought it was odd to make a folder there but a guide i was following said to pu tit there
[09:01] <Enselic> setite: then sudo rm -r will work, unless that directory is in use
[09:01] <sauvin> Actually, I'll bet they can, but you have to download some codecs. Do you have xine installed?
[09:01] <kahrytan> is there ANY application that plays mp3 cds? (not codec issue)
[09:01] <Gnea> isaac: it has to be typed exactly
[09:01] <jetscreamer> heh... funny, it would actually work.
[09:01] <jetscreamer> and it's what i do instead of trying to find out where what gets set
[09:01] <Enselic> kahrytan: is there one who *don
[09:01] <magnetron> !sound | kahrytan rhoruns
[09:01] <ubotu> kahrytan rhoruns: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:01] <dominussuus> rhoruns - sure, what does lspci | grep Sound say?
[09:01] <rhoruns> kahrytan, have you tried VLC??
[09:01] <sid> If I have VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS directories, how can I burn these so I can watch it on my dvd player using a gui? I don't want to use mkisofs or command line.
[09:01] <Enselic> kahrytan: which one does not?
[09:02] <jetscreamer> hah
[09:02] <isaac> gnea: k i typed it wright this time
[09:02] <Frogzoo> MrKeuner: system wide, the icons are set in /usr/share/applications
[09:02] <MrKeuner> jetscreamer: i would not do that, I think that would be a dirty hack
[09:02] <isaac> gnea: and it comes up with a line like            >
[09:02] <magnetron> sid: check out the app DeVeDe
[09:02] <rhoruns> hold on, i'll try.
[09:02] <jetscreamer> MrKeuner: yeah it probably would.. i do that a lot
[09:02] <isaac> gnea: whats it asking for?
[09:02] <sauvin> Um.. can mkisofs make a DVD? Sid, the files you're describing are on an DVD.
[09:02] <kahrytan> magnetron: not sound issue
[09:02] <jetscreamer> sid: try qdvdauthor et al
[09:02] <Typwn> xtknight: It's not working.
[09:02] <rhoruns> lspci | grep Sound returns nothing.
[09:02] <setite> ok Enselic i deleted it because it was acting up.. remade it.. it buggered again now i cant delete.. says rm: cannot lstat `/media/core': Permission denied
[09:02] <magnetron> kahrytan: what kind of issue do you have?
[09:02] <jetscreamer> lspci grep -i audio
[09:03] <Typwn> xtknight: libqt3-mt automatically replaced it
[09:03] <MrKeuner> jetscreamer: What do you do when the icon is an empty one?
[09:03] <dominussuus> rhoruns -
[09:03] <kahrytan> VLC works
[09:03] <rhoruns> dominussuus>
[09:03] <rhoruns> lol
[09:03] <Typwn> Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with libqt3c102-mt. I've tried installing it but it's saying that it's obsolete, problem is I need it for QJoyPad. Any ideas on how I can get this working?
[09:03] <kahrytan> magnetron: I was trying to find an app that plays mp3s from cd
[09:03] <sauvin> Kahrytan: thought so :D
[09:03] <Gnea> isaac: i don't know, you're not providing details. so far, it only looks like you didn't type it right.
[09:03] <paras> channel, where can i find the resources on localization of ubuntu graphical installer?
[09:03] <Enselic> setite: exactly how does the command you use look?
[09:03] <setite> sudo rm -r /media/core
[09:03] <setite> it worked once
[09:03] <dominussuus> rhoruns - sorry, finger slipped... run lspci again and scan through the output to make sure it doesn't say anything about your audigy
[09:04] <jetscreamer> MrKeuner: if i care enough i tear the theme up (text edit) and find out where what gets set then fix it or create an icon (or rename one to fit)
[09:04] <magnetron> kahrytan: any mp3 application: vlc totem amarok rhythmbox
[09:04] <setite> then i remade folder and it still not working so the sudo rm -r /media/core failed the second time
[09:04] <dominussuus> (that is, lspci on its own)
[09:04] <jetscreamer> try -R
[09:04] <setite> im trying to moutn a vista samba share to that folder
[09:04] <xtknight> Typwn, you could force an install of qjoypad i guess
[09:04] <kahrytan> magnetron: XMMS and Audacious can't play mp3s from cd.
[09:04] <Typwn> How do I do that?
[09:04] <jetscreamer> xmms can with the addon plugin
[09:04] <xtknight> Typwn, sudo dpkg --force-all qjoypad.deb
[09:04] <xtknight> er
[09:04] <jetscreamer> apt-cache search xmms | grep cd
[09:04] <xtknight> Typwn, sudo dpkg --force-all -i qjoypad.deb
[09:04] <rhoruns> i see three entries, dominussuus
[09:05] <magnetron> kahrytan: if you copy the file to the desktop, will it work then? to rule out CD reader issues
[09:05] <dominussuus> rhoruns -
[09:05] <jetscreamer> you tell someone to use --force???
[09:05] <jetscreamer> zomg
[09:05] <jetscreamer> i do too but ...
[09:05] <rhoruns> dominussuus
[09:05] <rhoruns> :)
[09:05] <xtknight> ::P
[09:05] <isaac> gnea: ok, so i put it in, i practicaly copy pasted so its like this.   "sudo find * -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \ && find * -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \  """(((then directly underneath that)))"""   >
[09:05] <dominussuus> rhoruns - bother!!!! sorry... okay, do they say anything interesting?
[09:05] <kahrytan> magnetron: then that defeats the purpose of playing an mp3 cd
[09:05] <rhoruns> hmmm
[09:05] <setite> oy now i remember why i quit linux... too many times where i was up past midnight trying to get shit working... it will be worth it for an HTPC.. but ill never use linux for everyday computing
[09:05] <jetscreamer> yes you will
[09:05] <jetscreamer> just wait
[09:06] <dominussuus> rhoruns, stand by... researching....
[09:06] <kraut> moin
[09:06] <rhoruns> dominussuus, just looks like normal entries.   each has (rev 04) at the end of them
[09:06] <sauvin> Wow... noatun was a useless piece of crap under Fedora; it's playing all kinds of stuff under ubuntu.
[09:06] <magnetron> kahrytan: i am trying to rule out cd reader problem, just try one song as a test
[09:07] <dominussuus> rhoruns - can you fire up alsamixer from a terminal?
[09:07] <setite> anyone using mythtv?
[09:07] <azi> hello, i'd like to compile a kernel module, but the compilation warns the proper source code is missing ( mainly headers etc..) is there any package i could apt to get that?
[09:07] <setite> or rather mythvideo?
[09:07] <magnetron> kahrytan: this is for troubleshooting, please help me help you
[09:07] <kahrytan> magnetron: it plays mp3s fine just not from a cd.
[09:07] <xtknight> azi, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[09:07] <rhoruns> how do i do that? dominussuus
[09:07] <setite> can i get it to to look in multiple folders for videos?
[09:07] <magnetron> kahrytan: the same mp3 files?
[09:08] <kahrytan> magnetron: Yeah.
[09:08] <rhoruns> i can open it from my Applications. dominussuus
[09:08] <dissection> How do I make an alias do two commands?
[09:08] <xtknight> dissection, && or semicolon.  && makes it depend on success of first command, semicolon does not
[09:08] <Typwn> xtknight: Forced it but still no go.
[09:08] <Enselic> dissection: alias a='ls; ls -l'
[09:08] <Gambrinus> paras: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList
[09:08] <azi> xtknight: some headers are present in /usr/src/linux*
[09:08] <setite> ah bugger this... im gonna install vista ultimate... for an  htpc setup should take this much work
[09:08] <magnetron> kahrytan: xmms is kind of old... try beep media player, it's similar to xmms
[09:08] <dissection> xtknight: Thank you :)
[09:08] <sauvin> dissection, you really want to study a bit of command line syntax (e.g. under bash) if you really want some alias power.
[09:09] <xtknight> Typwn, umm it can't be the same error?
[09:09] <dominussuus> rhoruns - okay we'll see if that'll do... go check all of the sliders and see if any ones have 'digital' or 'analog' selected
[09:09] <paras> Gambrinus, thanks
[09:09] <xtknight> azi, yes?
[09:09] <arso_> how do i use unrar-free
[09:09] <Typwn> xtknight: It's not I just don't see it in the menu list. Let me restart X
[09:09] <xtknight> azi, if you install "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)" you are all set
[09:09] <pommer> server linuxsir.org 7000
[09:09] <pommer> list
[09:09] <arso_> !rar
[09:09] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[09:09] <IndyGunFreak> arso_: i think its unrar /path/to/file
[09:09] <rhoruns> dominussuus, actually, i can't even see all of the sliders. they are too long, and go off the bottom of my screen. lol
[09:09] <arso_> IndyGunFreak: thnx, will try
[09:10] <dominussuus> rhoruns - aren't there any arrows to help you out?
[09:10] <mikubuntu> hey guys... i have seamonkey in my downloads manager, and then the archive manager opens up, but i can't seem to install ... can anyone help?
[09:10] <kahrytan> im back now
[09:10] <rhoruns> dominussuus, eh, i dont think so. this may be the wrong app, because it's titled 'gamix'
[09:10] <tas> can some1 help me? im having problems installing my nvidia drivers
[09:11] <Shoopuf> How do I open or run a .sh file
[09:11] <arso_> IndyGunFreak:  it didnt work
[09:11] <dominussuus> rhoruns, well that's okay because it may not have worked anyway :P
[09:11] <xtknight> Shoopuf, sh ./File.sh
[09:11] <arso_> and when i right click the rar and open with unrar-free
[09:11] <arso_> nothing happens
[09:11] <rhoruns> dominussuus, lol ok.
[09:11] <IndyGunFreak> arso_: then man unrar
[09:11] <arso_> its one of those multy file archives
[09:11] <arso_> multi*
[09:11] <xtknight> arso_, then you can use unrar x from the cmd line
[09:11] <dominussuus> rhoruns, try going to system -> preferences
[09:11] <xtknight> arso_, "unrar x rarArchive.part01.rar"
[09:11] <Gambrinus> paras: which language?  just curious.
[09:11] <arso_> xtknight:  thank you, trying
[09:11] <paras> Gambrinus, nepali
[09:11] <rhoruns> ok, then Sound?
[09:12] <tas> can some1 help me? im having problems installing my nvidia drivers
[09:12] <Gnea> !nvidia | tas
[09:12] <ubotu> tas: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:12] <dominussuus> rhoruns - actually, system -> preferences -> sound.  Click on the sounds tab
[09:12] <rhoruns> dominussuus ok.
[09:12] <dominussuus> rhoruns - then try switching the sound card at the bottom of that tab
[09:12] <sauvin> I installed mplayer from the ubuntu repos and don't know where mplayer will look for win32 codecs from the mplayer home page. How do I make mplayer tell me?
[09:12] <xtknight> sauvin, what do you mean?
[09:12] <IndyGunFreak> looks like i should have said unrar e /path/to/file
[09:12] <bullgard4> xtknight: Please excuse me, I had to be away from keyboard. --  I will go again through all previous steps myself at peace. Thank you for helping.
[09:12] <Gambrinus> paras: interesting.  https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+lang/ne
[09:13] <xtknight> bullgard4, ok (i have to go soon)
[09:13] <rhoruns> dominussuus, do you mean the devices tab? there's no sound card drop-down on the Sounds tab.
[09:13] <sauvin> xtknight, will mplayer look for the codecs in /usr/lib/codecs, /usr/local/lib/codecs, ...? Where?
[09:13] <dissection> Is there a way I can make the GNOME screenshot program start from Terminal?
[09:13] <Flannel> !w32codecs | sauvin
[09:13] <ubotu> sauvin: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:13] <xtknight> sauvin, it depends on how it was compiled
[09:13] <xtknight> sauvin, im not sure about ubuntu i can try and check
[09:13] <sauvin> I know. How do I make mplayer tell me this?
[09:13] <rhoruns> dominussuus, and on the Devices tab, Audigy 2 ZS (alsa mixer) is selected.
[09:13] <dominussuus> rhoruns - erm... maybe.  Poke around and try to find some place where you can switch your sound card
[09:13] <xtknight> sauvin, mplayer -v
[09:14] <Shoopuf> xtknight: i try to run that and it says that the executable the script points to doesnt exist, but the .bin is in the same directory, do i have to probably move the .bin to another folder?
[09:14] <sauvin> Ee, that looks useful...
[09:14] <rhoruns> dominussuus, the other option is the Sigmatel (OSS mixer)
[09:14] <xtknight> sauvin, i see some output about codecs there..
[09:14] <sauvin> Oh! there's a CONF! Kewel!
[09:14] <paras> Gambrinus, we want to localizae installer ...
[09:14] <dominussuus> rhoruns - that's no good... okay, we'll try something else
[09:14] <rhoruns> dominussuus, ok.
[09:14] <gage_> hi
[09:14] <kahrytan> magnetron: I tried Banshee Player and it doesnt play mp3 cds.
[09:14] <xtknight> sauvin, maybe /usr/local/lib/codecs also
[09:15] <xtknight> Shoopuf, hm maybe you need executable permissions
[09:15] <mikubuntu> could someone help me with the command line i need to get seamonkey out of my downloads and installed?  went through this last nite with another program, and i finally got it, don't know what i'm doing wrong ezackly
[09:15] <xtknight> Shoopuf, chmod a+x ./File.sh
[09:15] <xtknight> Shoopuf, chmod a+x ./File.bin
[09:15] <sauvin> I know. It can't find a .conf in /etc and so it's using the "built-in" conf. Argh.
[09:15] <xtknight> both ?
[09:15] <paras> Gambrinus, what is the ubuntu graphical installer called?
[09:15] <xtknight> paras, ubiquity
[09:15] <dominussuus> rhoruns - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=337513
[09:16] <dominussuus> see if that gives you any joy
[09:16] <sauvin> Hrm. There's an /etc/mplayer directory, though. That seems to be where to root about.
[09:16] <Shoopuf> xtknight: amazing, thanks xtknight :)
[09:16] <metaxyy__fw> I'm installing Ubuntu.  Why does it say it's "completely removing" various packages?  I hope it's not installing over my old Debian install and I don't know it.

[09:17] <paras> xtknight, is there any documents on localization of it?

[09:18] <sauvin> blackened still even exists!?
[09:18] <paras> xtknight, yes
[09:18] <rhoruns> lol, when i try opening alsamixer in terminal, i get alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[09:18] <xtknight> paras, im not sure exactly.  you can ask in #ubuntu-motu
[09:19] <paras> xtknight, ok
[09:19] <tetonca> Did this irc client just print a message to the channel saying I am no longer away?
[09:19] <zyth> tetonca, nope
[09:19] <tetonca> zyth: thanks, don't want the msg just the status bit.
[09:19] <ThanatosDrive> Does anyone know how to compose music in Ubuntu? As in, a good program where I can just plot down a piano roll? Or some notes?
[09:21] <tetonca> ThanatosDrive: there's some kind of program that produces PostScript files that are in musical notation (not Ubuntu-specific).
[09:22] <Gambrinus> ThanatosDrive: "rosegarden" perhaps
[09:23] <tetonca> Than: If you download Packages.gz it should have a description of every program.  It'll be a flat file so easy to search.  'synaptic' may have similar functionality (reads this file and may allow easy searching).
[09:23] <Frogzoo> ThanatosDrive: apt-cache search ###
[09:24] <ThanatosDrive> Frogzoo: That did nothing.
[09:24] <ThanatosDrive> Gambrinus: I though RoseGarden was for recording, but I could be wrong. I'll give it a look-see.
[09:24] <CyberMad> how to exit from terminal server window?
[09:24] <CyberMad> what is the shortcut key?

[09:24] <CyberMad> thanks.. my boss waiting for my answer :(
[09:25] <mikubuntu> knock knock, can anyone help me get my seamonkey out of the download box and into ubuntu?
[09:25] <tetonca> ThanatosDrive: does tucows have anything listed?
[09:26] <ThanatosDrive> tetonca: tucows?
[09:26] <Gambrinus> ThanatosDrive: Hydrogen might work, but it is a drum machine,  might have keyboard, etc  http://www.hydrogen-music.org/
[09:26] <tetonca> www.tucows.com used to be a place to look for things not seen in the distribution's packages.
[09:27] <tetonca> ThanatosDrive: lots of software authors don't take the trouble to get a package into a distribution such as Ubuntu, but they'll create the binary package and offer it on their web site, anyway.
[09:27] <ThanatosDrive> Gambrinus: Thanks I'll check it out.
[09:27] <Gambrinus> ThanatosDrive: also look at ardour http://ardour.org/ While your're at it UbuntuStudio
[09:27] <ThanatosDrive> Gambrinus: I've heard of UbuntuStudio, but I doubt an integrated sound card on a 9-year old motherboard will work out too well.
[09:28] <tetonca> Voyetra used to bundle compositional software (sequencer etc.) with SoundBlaster cards.  Was a Windows program iirc.
[09:29] <YANP> I am trying to play an audio cd, however, ubuntu wont even recognize I have a cd in the cdrom.  How do I fix this?
[09:29] <tetonca> YANP: does cdeject do anything?
[09:30] <YANP> It doesn't even show a cdrom...
[09:30] <YANP> just shows: desktop, filesystem
[09:30] <tetonca> cdeject should open the drive door (push the tray out).
[09:30] <YANP> I can press the button on the cd rom to eject the cd...and I put it back in and still nothing..
[09:31] <dominussuus> YANP - run cdeject from the console
[09:31] <YANP> only 2nd day on ubuntu...on it because vista crashed on me..
[09:31] <YANP> console?
[09:31] <dominussuus> YANP - a terminal
[09:31] <dominussuus> YANP - command prompt in Windows language
[09:32] <YANP> other thing I knew how to do on windows...get on myspace and play guild wars =\
[09:32] <YANP> The program 'cdeject' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[09:32] <YANP> sudo apt-get install cdtool
[09:32] <YANP> *only thing
[09:33] <dominussuus> YANP - so type in sudo apt-get install cdtool
[09:33] <sauvin> Hey... I thought apt-get and synaptics were supposed to never touch /usr/local...!?
[09:33] <tetonca> Hm that's not quite true, sauvin.
[09:34] <sauvin> I just discovered.
[09:34] <tetonca> sauvin: I think /opt is supposedly reserved for what you thot /usr/local would be.
[09:34] <MrWGW-> where are GNOME icon sets located out of curiosity?
[09:35] <dominussuus> YANP - with Linux you'll be using terminals and typing commands a lot more than you did in Windows - there are a lot of reasons for the difference which I won't bore you with at the moment :P
[09:35] <sauvin> er, no, I was told that apt-get and suchlike were supposed to never touch /usr/local so that people could build stuff and have someplace to install them without having to worry about conflicts.
[09:35] <tetonca> MrWGW there are 'themes' in Ubuntu's GNOME.
[09:35] <tetonca> (I think)
[09:35] <tetonca> sauvin: I think
[09:35] <YANP> Well I tried installing XP on this computer earlier today..but it wouldnt let me connect to the internet..then again the burned copy I have is really old...
[09:35] <tetonca> sauvin: /opt is for that iirc.
[09:35] <YANP> I dont like linux all I want to do is play guild wars and I cant =[
[09:36] <sauvin> You want me to install libs, startup scripts and suchlike in /opt?
[09:36] <disinterested> YANP: try ubuntu u'll probably like it
[09:36] <tetonca> sauvin: sometimes, sure.
[09:36] <YANP> I am on ubuntu
[09:36] <YANP> I dont like it
[09:36] <YANP> i cant play guild wars
[09:36] <Sonicadvance1> That's an unreasonable reason to not like Ubuntu
[09:36] <MrWGW-> right
[09:36] <dominussuus> YANP - I'm unfamilar with guild wars so you'll have to walk me through how you played it on Windows
[09:36] <MrWGW-> and where are those themes located in the filesystem ,tetonca?
[09:37] <YANP> guild wars is world of warcraft but free
[09:37] <disinterested> well ubuntu or linux in general isnt a real good gaming os
[09:37] <tetonca> MrWGW try 'cd /usr/share' and then 'find . | grep HumanCircle' maybe.
[09:37] <dominussuus> YANP - so you need to run it from CDZ
[09:37] <dominussuus> CD?
[09:37] <MrWGW-> thanks
[09:37] <YANP> sonic: that is the only reason I have a computer..that is the only thing I do besides myspace..I dont have much need for a computer
[09:37] <sauvin> Grr. That's just WRONG.
[09:38] <YANP> cdz
[09:38] <YANP> ?
[09:38] <dominussuus> YANP - sorry, I meant to type CD?
[09:38] <dominussuus> YANP - are you trying to run guild wars from a CD or from the Internet?
[09:38] <YANP> dom: thanks...audio cd works now =] 
[09:39] <YANP> guild wars is a windows game..windows is not penguin os.
[09:39] <YANP> So it wont work
[09:39] <zyth> YANP, untrue
[09:39] <zyth> it runs in Wine.
[09:39] <dominussuus> YANP - back in your console, type "sudo apt-get install wine"
[09:39] <disinterested> yeah try wine
[09:39] <YANP> The other night someone tried to help me...for 3 hours..didnt work
[09:40] <dominussuus> YANP - so let's see if I can have you up and running in 15 minutes :P
[09:40] <YANP> ok
[09:40] <disinterested> time mark
[09:40] <YANP> will see...
[09:41] <YANP> getting it now
[09:41] <__spitFIRE> MajorPayne: you got your problem fixed?
[09:41] <dominussuus> !wine | YANP
[09:41] <ubotu> YANP: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:41] <YANP> I know what wine is....I read about it a little the other night then gave up
[09:42] <dominussuus> YANP - right, okay... just a sec
[09:42] <kahrytan> YANP: did you check WINE AppDB?
[09:42] <YANP> eh...the cd thing wont play my audio cd...
[09:42] <YANP> just locks up...
[09:42] <YANP> appdb?
[09:42] <kahrytan> http://appdb.winehq.org/
[09:43] <YANP> yeah...I have been here
[09:43] <YANP> doesnt help me any
[09:43] <YANP> i tried for 3 hours the other night
[09:43] <dominussuus> YANP - CD? are you having troubles with the CD again?
[09:43] <YANP> i obv cant do it so sending me the same links..are not going to help.
[09:44] <YANP> sound juicer retrieves everything but when I press play..it takes a long time and locks up
[09:44] <dominussuus> YANP - and lemmie know when you have Wine installed
[09:44] <YANP> ok
[09:44] <YANP> I am not a very patient person so waiting longer than a minute for anything on the computer is long for me.
[09:44] <YANP> when it is right there
[09:44] <rhoruns> baaah! i can't escape this error when i try to run alsamixer! : alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[09:44] <recoil> yo
[09:45] <recoil> I've got a DEBIAN section in my Applications menu with a crud load of stuff that I don't remember installing
[09:45] <recoil> anybody have a clue?
[09:46] <recoil> some how or another Emacs crawled its way on here
[09:46] <dominussuus> YANP - well if you invested 3 hours already into setting it up you must have SOME patience...
[09:46] <YANP> not really
[09:46] <YANP> I broke a lot of things
[09:46] <gordonjcp> recoil: it may be a dependency for something else
[09:46] <recoil> is it from ubuntu-restricted-extras
[09:46] <YANP> audio cd worked for like 6 seconds..then stopped..not it isnt doing anything and froze..
[09:47] <recoil> yanp: tell me about it... i got annoyed with apt dependencies all being screwed up so i just started from scratch
[09:47] <recoil> and sure enough.... now i got some weird crap i dont even remember installing
[09:47] <pawan> hi
[09:47] <bullgard4> Why do exist two directories /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/ and /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.20//Documentation instead of one?
[09:47] <pawan> any passcard filling software
[09:47] <YANP> My friend told me ubuntu is better than windows..he didnt tell me I would waste time trying to set up guild wars
[09:47] <recoil> meh....
[09:48] <YANP> i have to keep force quiting audio cd because it keeps freezing
[09:48] <zmeiat_joro> I'm using edgy -  can I install fiesty on _another_ partition without burning it on a cd?
[09:48] <dominussuus> YANP - the popular saying about Linux and Windows is that Linux is impossible to set up but easy to maintain whereas Windows is easy to set up but impossible to maintain
[09:49] <recoil> anyhoo... anybody know what package would've installed a 'DEBIAN' folder in my Applications menu? it has sub folders like Apps, Games, Help, Screen, Shells
[09:49] <dominussuus> YANP - and the eggheads over in development are working on fixing the former issue
[09:49] <zanaga> recoil: the 'menu' package
[09:49] <dominussuus> YANP - well let's see if I can get guildwars working first...
[09:49] <sauvin> some docs I found laying about suggest that the codecs need to be installed into /usr/local/lib/codecs. If I'm wrong, what the hell, I'll just symlink stuff. The Ubuntu "edit this config file, then edit that one, then do this apt-get, that apt-get, a wget or two" thing is a pain.
[09:49] <YANP> Ok
[09:49] <dominussuus> YANP - then we'll deal with the cd issue
[09:49] <YANP> ok wine is set up
[09:49] <recoil> zanaga: meaning? reason i ask is that it wasn't in my previous install
[09:49] <AlonzoTG> I would like to introduce my bothelper that will make it easier for people to get channel help.
[09:49] <dominussuus> YANP - now do you have guild wars on CD or do you download it?
[09:50] <AnnaBot> # Appears as ANNA
[09:50] <YANP> cd
[09:50] <cafuego> oh god
[09:50] <zanaga> recoil: it's the tool to create menu structures in debian. you should be able to uninstall without any odd effects
[09:50] <dominussuus> YANP - okay, pop the CD in and see what happens

[09:51] <jmg> any fix?

[09:52] <dominussuus> YANP - okay, that's probably because Linux tends not always to support autoruns for Windows... no matter.  See if you can open a file explorer (Windows Explorer in Windows world)

[09:54] <mikubuntu> help. could anyone please help me get my mozilla seamonkey out of the download box and into ubuntu?  i'm stuck.
[09:54] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> Yes they are
[09:54] <dissection> I wrote an alias that runs two commands and its working well from Terminal. Is there something I can do so I can get it to execute from my Desktop by placing an icon there? I get some error when I try this.
[09:55] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> the linux+ certification from testout uses windows
[09:55] <recoil> zanaga: i think it got installed when I installed some codec packages... dunno why
[09:55] <zanaga> recoil: odd..
[09:55] <recoil> zanga: i can't think of anything else it would've been installed with
[09:55] <LiNuX_Fr3aK> It simulates the shell and allows users to practice cli
[09:55] <dominussuus> YANP - are you able to find your CD?

[09:55] <Shoopuf> How do I find out what version my sound driver is and how do I get the newest ALSA sound driver if I have an old one?
[09:56] <YANP> dominussuus: I put the Guild Wars CD into the CD-ROM and Ubuntu doesn't even say the CD is in the CD-ROM.
[09:56] <YANP> Hm..maybe I should install these 92 updates available?
[09:56] <dominussuus> YANP - not at the moment
[09:57] <dominussuus> YANP - look at the top menu and click on "Places"
[09:57] <YANP> I have
[09:57] <YANP> I am at the computer..
[09:57] <dominussuus> is there a CD icon?
[09:57] <tetonca> mikubuntu: what did you try so far?
[09:57] <YANP> I click on cd rom and says.. "unable to mount media"
[09:57] <dominussuus> okay....
[09:57] <YANP> "there is probably no media in t his drive"
[09:57] <dominussuus> YANP - open your terminal up again
[09:58] <YANP> yet..I put the cd in there
[09:58] <YANP> ok
[09:58] <jmg> LiNuX_Fr3aK: i would never hire anyone with linux+

[09:58] <YANP> Terminal is open...
[09:58] <pawan> roboform for ubuntu
[09:58] <mahtavamatt> Is there a "net nanny" equivalent for ubuntu?

[09:58] <recoil> zanaga: thanks. i'll try looking this up
[09:59] <zmeiat_joro> I'm using edgy -  can I install fiesty from inside edgy on _another_ partition without burning the iso?
[09:59] <dominussuus> YANP - in the prompt, type mount... a bunch of things should pop up
[09:59] <rhoruns> how do i run ./configure???
[09:59] <tetonca> zmeiat_jora: should be able to do it in a chroot jail.
[09:59] <YANP> Ok
[09:59] <mikubuntu> tetonca: i downloaded from mozilla site, then it went into my downloads, then the archive manager opened up and i tried to extract the files but nothing happened.  could you help me install from the terminal?
[09:59] <tripppy> how do i test my tv tuner card in base install ubuntu 6.10?
[10:00] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: http://dansguardian.org/
[10:00] <tetonca> mikubuntu: is it a filename.deb  type of file with .deb at the end of the name?
[10:00] <dominussuus> YANP - just checking on that... okay, now type "sudo mount /dev/cd0 /mnt/"
[10:01] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: .. there are packages in ubuntu.
[10:01] <jeff_> anyone know how to take a screen shot in xfce?
[10:01] <mahtavamatt> cafuego, i want to be able to install it on the machine in question, not a firewall
[10:01] <Dj-avu> somebody help me pls.
[10:01] <mikubuntu> tetonca: mmmm, no...  ...installer.tar.gz
[10:02] <YANP> christopher@christopher-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/cd0/mnt/
[10:02] <YANP> mount: can't find /dev/cd0/mnt/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[10:02] <YANP> christopher@christopher-desktop:~$
[10:02] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: No reason you can't do that, just make the machine in question be a transprent proxy for itself.
[10:02] <dominussuus> YANP - make sure there's a space between cd0/ and /mnt/
[10:03] <dominussuus> and don't forget the slashes, they're all important
[10:03] <mahtavamatt> cafuego, i wouldn't know where to start. i pretty much want "net nanny" for ubuntu
[10:03] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: You run dansguardian on localhost and redirect web requests from the local machine to go via it.
[10:03] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: You could try the non-free version, with paid support.
[10:03] <mikubuntu> i'm looking in my downloads and realized that theres anothe4r tar.gz in there from last nite that i was unable to install as well (Gimme)
[10:03] <YANP> christopher@christopher-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/cd0 /mnt/
[10:03] <YANP> mount: special device /dev/cd0 does not exist
[10:04] <YANP> wait wait..I see gw in cd rom now
[10:04] <tetonca> mikubuntu: I think you'd benefit from learning how to use synaptic here.
[10:04] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: ... but there's no double-click-to-install thing that i know of.
[10:04] <mikubuntu> tetonca: will synaptic exract these for me?
[10:04] <Shoopuf> How do I find out what version my sound driver is and how do I get the newest ALSA sound driver if I have an old one?
[10:04] <mikubuntu> tetonca: i'll open now
[10:04] <dominussuus> YANP - my mistake, /dev/cd0 should have been /dev/cdrom
[10:05] <dominussuus> yanp - so your command should read "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/"
[10:05] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: Aha! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=207008
[10:05] <mahtavamatt> cafuego, so there is no program that you know of that can simply be installed and we allow be to control user web access time and site restriction
[10:05] <bullgard4> The sourcecode of lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko is not commented enough. Where is the function acpi_evaluate_object (line #146) defined?
[10:06] <tetonca> mikubuntu: what synaptic will do is offer pre-packaged files to you.  Some of them will be similar to what you're downloading directly.  Only this way you leverage someone else's work turning those downloads into Ubuntu packages.
[10:06] <YANP> ok..i put it in and nothing is going on
[10:06] <YANP> I hear my computer going crazy
[10:06] <dominussuus> YANP - excellent.  Now type "cd /mnt"
[10:06] <YANP> christopher@christopher-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/
[10:06] <YANP> mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[10:06] <mahtavamatt> cafuego, cheers
[10:06] <cafuego> mahtavamatt: netnanny would do exactly the same, set itself up as proxy, except not notify the user of it. it's just a matter of making the leap of having to do the in-between config by hand.
[10:07] <mikubuntu> tetonca:   mmmmm, not sure i understand that, but i have it open ... what next, master?
[10:07] <YANP> I see guild wars though..like said earlier.
[10:07] <mahtavamatt> cafuego, not a problem
[10:07] <YANP> i see it on desktop icon and on cd rom
[10:07] <tetonca> mikubuntu: I dont' use synaptic but you need to search for example 'seamonkey' here.
[10:07] <MajorPayne> __spitFIRE: I installed Real Player :-(
[10:07] <mikubuntu> tetonca: i don't see seamonkey in the list
[10:07] <rhoruns> $%^@#%#$^ i cant get my sound workinnnggg argghh :(
[10:07] <dominussuus> YANP - okay, so that probably means Ubuntu has found the CD
[10:08] <YANP> Ok..now what?
[10:08] <dominussuus> YANP - so were you able to "cd /mnt/"?
[10:08] <mikubuntu> tetonca: let me poke around it and try to find
[10:08] <tetonca> mikubuntu: you may need to exit synaptic and 'sudo apt-get update' I think is the command to load package lists.
[10:08] <tripppy> grrr. how do i get my tv tuner working?
[10:09] <YANP> when I do that command it says: christopher@christopher-desktop:/mnt$
[10:09] <dominussuus> YANP - sweet.  Type "ls" I want to know what the setup executable is
[10:10] <YANP> autorun.inf  data  gw.ico  setup.exe
[10:10] <dominussuus> YANP - type "wine setup.exe"
[10:11] <YANP> Is this the moment of truth?
[10:11] <dominussuus> YANP - yessir.  The setup program should run like it was in Windows
[10:11] <sauvin> Holy CRAP, ubuntu is FAST!
[10:12] <mikubuntu> tetonca: sudo ... update (seamonkey?)
[10:13] <YANP> The moment of truth was rejected..and hard
[10:13] <YANP> Want to see log?
[10:13] <dominussuus> YANP - what did it complain about?
[10:13] <YANP> Where is a site I can post it?
[10:13] <tetonca> mikubuntu: probably wouldn't hurt if on broadband to try 'sudo apt-get seamonkey' .. might seek the right file.
[10:13] <dominussuus> YANP - how big is the dump?
[10:13] <YANP> Big
[10:14] <YANP> Probably like 50+ lines
[10:14] <dominussuus> YANP - stand by... can you file transfer it over?
[10:14] <YANP> That is done how?
[10:14] <dominussuus> YANP - not entirely sure :S
[10:15] <YANP> where is a site I can just post it on?
[10:15] <YANP> like postbin thing?
[10:15] <YANP> *thingy
[10:15] <ferronica> how to do port forwarding in ubuntu ?
[10:16] <dominussuus> YANP - that's not my specialty
[10:16] <dominussuus> room: where can you post stuff for reading?
[10:16] <tetonca> port forwarding done in ssh.  dunno about some other use.
[10:16] <jaw_> !paste

[10:21] <YANP> ok
[10:22] <oldude67> YANP, just curious, what kind of computer are you running and how old is it?
[10:22] <mikubuntu> tetonca: so: first 'sudo apt get update', and next line sudo apt get seamonkey'?
[10:22] <tetonca> mikubuntu: just the update. see what that brings first.
[10:22] <zyth> Anyone know why Ubuntu can do WPA out of box, but Xubuntu doesnt seem to be able to?

[10:28] <jmg> mikubuntu: apt-get install seamonkey not apt-get seamonkey
[10:28] <jetscreamer> add it
[10:28] <jetscreamer> what he said

[10:29] <YANP> Will see..
[10:29] <tetonca> I brought Alsa flowers.  She turned me down.  Then I gave her a box of chocolates.  Same outcome.
[10:29] <YANP> Thanks for all the help though. =] 
[10:29] <YANP> Guild Wars = My Life
[10:30] <YANP> Haven't played it in 2 weeks and I am probably kicked out of my guild now though. =[
[10:30] <jetscreamer> tetonca: those types of women probably like to be treated like dirt...
[10:30] <YANP> tetonca: sorry to hear that.
[10:30] <dominussuus> YANP - my pleasure.  Linux has it's quirks but I believe in it far more than Windows.  The good news from all of this is that once you get it running, you'll never have to fix it
[10:31] <YANP> Nice guys do finish last though =\
[10:31] <tetonca> It .. was a joke.  He asked about Alsa experts.  That's a sound driver. /rimshot fades fast
[10:31] <mikubuntu> jmg: yes i did: sudo apt-get install seamonkey , ubuntu says 'couldn't find package' .. i'm surprised, i figured that would be an oft repeated install ...
[10:31] <dominussuus> tetonca - Alsa can be a bit of a B*
[10:31] <jetscreamer> !info seamonkey
[10:31] <ubotu> Package seamonkey does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:31] <dominussuus> tetonca - but much nicer than her worthless sister Oss
[10:31] <jmg> nobody uses seamonkey thats why
[10:31] <jetscreamer> !find seamonkey
[10:32] <ubotu> Package/file seamonkey does not exist in feisty
[10:32] <jetscreamer> it's in debian
[10:32] <tetonca> dominussuus, heh.
[10:32] <pawan> hello
[10:32] <YANP> dominussuus: How come you can get this far but the other people who helped me couldn't?
[10:32] <YANP> They are not as awesome?
[10:32] <stinger_au> yo
[10:32] <tetonca> YANP: people's awesomeness varies depending on environment variables.
[10:33] <dominussuus> YANP - probably not :P  Seriously, my job is tech support so my survival relies entirely upon ingenuity and patience :P
[10:33] <Sache007> imma go to sleep..thannx
[10:33] <pawan> is ubuntu better than windows
[10:33] <larry> Has anyone played with nvidia chiipset motherboard to set up a RAID 5 array ?
[10:33] <stinger_au> how come i dont have torrentflux 2.3-2 in aptitude ? i have the universe option set ? i only have the older version
[10:33] <tetonca> pawan: yes, ubuntu is better than windows.
[10:33] <jetscreamer> pawan: that's purely subjective, run both to find out
[10:33] <dominussuus> YANP - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77LBQxa5o5w
[10:33] <stinger_au> oh
[10:33] <mikubuntu> jetscreamer: i like seamonkey for a few features, but especially the integrated web editor, it's handy for grabbing elements to experiment with
[10:33] <YANP> I dont have flash player installed yet
[10:33] <dominussuus> YANP - just so you know that success IS possible
[10:33] <stinger_au> its part of the gusty
[10:34] <jetscreamer> mikubuntu: i have it installed i believe, aHHHH!
[10:34] <jetscreamer> mikubuntu: try iceape
[10:34] <jetscreamer> !info iceape
[10:34] <ubotu> Package iceape does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:34] <dominussuus> YANP - right, there's a fix for that too "sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree"
[10:34] <jetscreamer> ah
[10:34] <jetscreamer> nm
[10:34] <jetscreamer> it's called iceape in debian
[10:34] <pawan> there is no visual studio vc++ in ubuntu
[10:34] <jetscreamer> goes with iceweasel
[10:34] <pawan> no oracle
[10:34] <jetscreamer> sure there is
[10:34] <YANP> Not yet still doing the gw thingy
[10:35] <dominussuus> pawan - for good reasons too
[10:35] <jetscreamer> pawan: i dual boot when i want to use vs
[10:35] <jetscreamer> or just use another box
[10:35] <pawan> no windows 2008 server
[10:35] <dominussuus> YANP - well I don't want to spoil it but it looks like it works perfectly :D
[10:35] <smassh> hello eveyone. I am using ndiswrapper to install my wireless ethernet card. After booting up i can't ping to other systems
[10:35] <psnel> Hi folks! - I need help with post edgy->feisy upgrade... typed "none" at Raid dialog (mdadm).. now at boot I get Raid config error "mdadm: no devices listed in conf file were found" - then BusyBOX$>
[10:36] <ace2016> Hi all
[10:36] <mikubuntu> jetscreamer: so : sudo apt-get install iceape ?
[10:36] <YANP> sh..you are going to jinx it
[10:36] <tetonca> smassh: ifconfig, route are commands helpful. also netstat.
[10:36] <pawan> no directx
[10:36] <YANP> You are tech support for windows? =]  lol
[10:36] <dominussuus> YANP - you're on a highspeed Internet connection, right?
[10:36] <jetscreamer> mikubuntu: the bot said there is no iceape
[10:36] <ace2016> anyone know where the network settings are kept?  i have 2 installations of ubuntu, both are  7.04 but one does not have a working network, i want to copy over the network settings from one to the other
[10:37] <dominussuus> YANP - sadly, yes.. but I'm trying to convert my clients to Linux :D
[10:37] <YANP> yeah..clear wire..wireless broadband..
[10:37] <jetscreamer> mikubuntu: i once d/l'd the .bin from mozilla.com and installed it.. worked fine for me then
[10:37] <YANP> I hate it though
[10:37] <ace2016> where are the network settings? i started looking in /etc/ but found very little
[10:37] <YANP> not fast enough
[10:37] <jetscreamer> ace2016: /etc/network/interfaces or so maybe
[10:37] <YANP> dom: microsoft?
[10:37] <smassh> tetonca: after installing ndiswrapper and setting ndiswrapper -m. Is it needed to do all those things?
[10:38] <dominussuus> YANP - no, I work for myself and have nothing for contempt for Microsoft
[10:38] <mikubuntu> thanks guys, time to destress and read my email.  sunday's always a big day for email.  lol.
[10:38] <dominussuus> *nothing but contempt for
[10:38] <pawan> no symbian programming software
[10:38] <simon__> Hello. heres my problem. When i press the "door" or my power button to get the screen where i can choose which action to do (logout, restart, shutdown etc) my pc freezes and wont work til i cut the power
[10:38] <simon__> pls. help
[10:38] <tetonca> smassh: you have to investigate.  start with 'ifconfig' by itself to see if the device is there and assigned an IP address.
[10:38] <psnel> Anyone: need help with post edgy->feisy upgrade... typed "none" at Raid dialog (mdadm).. now at boot I get Raid config error "mdadm: no devices listed in conf file were found" - then BusyBOX$>
[10:38] <YANP> oh
[10:38] <larry> Anyone used nforce RAID ??
[10:38] <ace2016> jetscreamer: to be more exact i need the thing that configures the network on startup, it doesn't seem to work for the other one
[10:39] <tetonca> mikubuntu, good luck.
[10:39] <pawan> hello
[10:40] <pawan> how to rename dsl-provider connection name
[10:40] <psnel> Anyone.. is it possible to disable raid and recover my old partitions?
[10:40] <dominussuus> YANP - how are we looking?

[10:41] <simon__> pls. help. my pc crashes/freezes when i press the logout button
[10:41] <simon__> I won't get that menu. I use feisty
[10:41] <psnel>  . this is me being patient()
[10:41] <YANP> last thing it downloaded was Get:64 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main libncurses5-dev 5.5-5ubuntu2 [1368kB] 
[10:42] <JodiH> hi there just started a new installation and seems to be stuck in detecting harware to find cd roms - loading module trm290 any ideas would be greatly appreciated
[10:42] <YANP> you told me yes to everything so..it has prompted y or n like 5 times
[10:42] <psnel> anyone, plz: need help with post edgy->feisy upgrade... typed "none" at Raid dialog (mdadm).. now at boot I get Raid config error "mdadm: no devices listed in conf file were found" - then BusyBOX$>
[10:42] <dominussuus> YANP - sounds good
[10:42] <YANP> This Klotski game is hard
[10:42] <YANP> and I am only on lv 2
[10:43] <tetonca> JodiH try adding 'acpi=off' to the grub command line after reboot.  Also add 'vga=normal' to the same line (in both cases edit any existing references to those things)
[10:43] <tetonca> (or add them)
[10:43] <YANP> then again I cant even beat chess cpu on easy..
[10:43] <dominussuus> YANP - ubuntu has some very addictive free games
[10:43] <dominussuus> YANP - I've always been a tetris addict myself
[10:43] <YANP> not that I have seen lol
[10:43] <JodiH> tetonca thanks but thisis a clean install
[10:44] <YANP> the girlfriend loves puzzle games
[10:44] <Dj-avu> help me pls http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30879/
[10:44] <tetonca> JodiH grub is the boot loader.
[10:44] <psnel> i'v got (initramfs)$> .. getting Feisty image for live boot.. how can I disable raid and recover my orig partitions?
[10:45] <JodiH> tetonca ima newbie and im using a cd rom to install onto a clean hard drive
[10:45] <tetonca> JodiH, grub is the bootloader.  Did you try what I said to do?
[10:45] <dominussuus> simon - can you "sudo shutdown now" from a terminal?
[10:46] <Dj-avu> tetonca, help me pls http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30879/
[10:46] <tetonca> Dj-avu, I'll look.
[10:47] <Dj-avu> tetonca, thanks.
[10:47] <YANP> dom if this works i am putting you on my heroes section on myspace =] 
[10:47] <psnel> any help or calarity would be appreciated. I just don't know why its trying to RAID at all.. I'm sure typed "none" at the prompt during (feisty 7.04) upgrade
[10:47] <dominussuus> YANP - make sure you spell my name correctly ;)
[10:47] <YANP> I no spell..only copy and paste =] 
[10:47] <dominussuus> dj-avu - your sources.list is auf
[10:47] <dominussuus> *AFU
[10:47] <Amaranth> YANP: type dom and hit tab
[10:47] <tetonca> Dj-avu, Looks like you either need the cdrom it asks for, or 'sudo apt-get update'.
[10:48] <YANP> dominussuus: ah
[10:48] <YANP> cool
[10:48] <YANP> Was wondering how everyone kept typing the persons name
[10:48] <YANP> was like "damn these people have nothing else to do then type out the whole name.
[10:48] <YANP> "
[10:48] <tetonca> Dj-avu, what dominussuus said (maybe; I assume they know).
[10:48] <dominussuus> tetonca - I think his sources are pointing to the CD instead of the site
[10:49] <Amaranth> YANP: tab completion is awesome :)
[10:49] <tetonca> dominus: yeah that was odd.
[10:49] <Dj-avu>  i want if i need install something not need i enter cd.
[10:50] <YANP> Amaranth: I agree. =] 
[10:50] <psnel> this is me fishing for some support --------?
[10:51] <tetonca> maybe 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure dpkg' here. ;)
[10:51] <dominussuus> Dj-avu - do you have synaptic open?
[10:52] <tetonca> dpkg should be the backend to apt right?
[10:52] <jetscreamer> nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:52] <dominussuus> tetonca - I thought it was the other way around
[10:52] <jetscreamer> mcedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:52] <strent> psnel: Then throw your fishing rod.  ;)
[10:52] <jetscreamer> dpkg is the backend basically yes
[10:52] <tetonca> dom: dpkg predates apt by like 5 yrs
[10:52] <Dj-avu> what is synaptic
[10:52] <jetscreamer> a front end gui
[10:53] <dominussuus> tetonca: right, misread your message :D
[10:53] <tetonca> synaptic is the modern dselect.  package manager at the user level. easy interface.
[10:53] <YANP> Question: Does linux have emulators and roms for games like pac-man, pokemon? etc like NES, SNES, Gameboy emulators?
[10:53] <jetscreamer> not kde specific as some ppl seem to think
[10:53] <dominussuus> YANP - and how!
[10:53] <psnel> strent: o thank god... no boot after edgy-> feisty... trying to mdadm RAID... didnt want raid... my partitions gone?
[10:53] <jetscreamer> yes yanp
[10:53] <tarzeau> YANP: indeed it has
[10:53] <dominussuus> YANP - like you won't believe
[10:54] <YANP> where do you get them? I love playing pacman =]  and pokemon =] 
[10:54] <jetscreamer> apt-get install
[10:54] <tetonca> I thought you needed (illegal copies of) game device ROM images for any of that?
[10:54] <jetscreamer> apt-cache search
[10:54] <YANP> not yet still doing this guild wars then =] 
[10:54] <jetscreamer> you may need those items yes
[10:54] <kaptengu> anyone knows how to be able to wake my computer from sleep with ssh, gnome-power-manager seems to turn off the network card on sleep...
[10:54] <tetonca> rgr tnx.
[10:54] <psnel> strent: DL'ing feisty image for live boot. anything i can do now?
[10:54] <Gasten> erh... why the heck is something called scrollkeeper-update taking 95% of my cpu?
[10:54] <dominussuus> YANP - you can use Synaptec, Add/Remove Programs, or apt-get
[10:54] <jetscreamer> because scrollkeeper is like that
[10:55] <Balachmar> Hi, can someone help me with Evolution or point me to a better suited channel? Evolution backend crashes each time I start it
[10:55] <Balachmar> And it used to work fine
[10:55] <tetonca> Evolution was authored by Ximian I think.
[10:55] <dominussuus> is there a pacman clone? like pactux or something?
[10:55] <jetscreamer> Gasten: it's as bad as updatedb imo
[10:55] <Wandfliese> hi all
[10:55] <jetscreamer> dominussuus: many
[10:55] <Gasten> jetscreamer: Oh. A bit like Norto Antivirus, eh? Decides to do a update when you least expect it?
[10:56] <psnel> strent: i have a BusyBox shell. seems no disk access
[10:56] <NETWizz> Heard of No See ums
[10:56] <YANP> I am hungry =[
[10:56] <jetscreamer> Gasten: you can set when it does or turn it off probably, but off would probably not be good
[10:56] <zampaktu> does anybody know how i can share my internet connection using ubuntu? i have wired network+wiresless, i would like to share the wireless connection using adhoc mode. thanks
[10:56] <tetonca> Balachmar, you might try editing ~/.xinitrc .. not sure if evo is called there.
[10:56] <Dj-avu> dominussuus, how remove some package using dpkg?
[10:56] <strent> psnel: Depends, I guess. Software overwriting partitions usually do some security questions before meddling with the HD content. Maybe if there was no formatting and the partition table got scrambled you might be able to guess the partitions with gpart
[10:56] <jetscreamer> dpkg --remove or --purge
[10:56] <Gasten> jetscreamer: seems so. Well, it stoipped now, so I'm cool.
[10:56] <jetscreamer> BUT
[10:56] <jetscreamer> it will not do dependencies
[10:56] <jetscreamer> you can break your box
[10:56] <Gasten> jetscreamer: why can't apt-get update as everyone else?
[10:56] <kaptengu> I think this channel should be split into different levels of difficulty
[10:56] <dominussuus> dj-avu - listen to jetscreamer
[10:56] <tetonca> Dj-avu: dpkg --purge package
[10:56] <jetscreamer> Gasten: that's different also
[10:57] <Balachmar> tetonca: I don't even have that file
[10:57] <jetscreamer> don't use the dpkg , use apt-get or aptitude
[10:57] <dominussuus> !synaptec | YANP
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about synaptec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <Dj-avu> owh
[10:57] <jetscreamer> synaptic
[10:57] <dominussuus> thanks
[10:57] <dominussuus> !synaptic | YANP
[10:57] <ubotu> YANP: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[10:57] <dominussuus> jetscreamer: keyboard's loose today
[10:57] <tetonca> Balachmar, select something besides GNOME in gdm before logging in.
[10:58] <YANP> so this is emulators like nes? snes? gb?
[10:58] <jetscreamer> under session i think
[10:58] <jetscreamer> YANP: apt-cache search emulator
[10:58] <dominussuus> YANP: familiarise yourself with Synaptic... it gets you everything you could ever need
[10:58] <YANP> not yet still doing the guild wars install
[10:58] <Balachmar> tetonca: Does that help me getting Evolution started?
[10:58] <Wandfliese> i played yester with chmod and the -R option and now a directory and everything that is in it has 754 but now i want that directory have 755 and simple files 644 how can i do it without to type every single dic or file???
[10:58] <rhoruns> after i make a modification in GNU nano through terminal, how do i save/exit??
[10:58] <YANP> dominussuus: ok
[10:59] <psnel> strent: sounds good. what can i do from the BusyBox prompt while I wait.. grub setting? fstab? mdadm.conf (they're all on the hdd, i guess) how woud I disable the RAID (mdadm) later?
[10:59] <tetonca> Balachmar, it prevents Evolution from starting, assuming it's interfering with your fixing it.
[10:59] <jetscreamer> rhoruns: ctrl+x to exit and save
[10:59] <YANP> will book mark
[10:59] <rhoruns> oh ok thanks
[10:59] <jetscreamer> rhoruns: ctrl + o to save
[10:59] <dominussuus> YANP: Synaptic is the easiest way to install things without messing about with apt-gets
[10:59] <jetscreamer> rhoruns: those things on the bottom, the list, are ctrl + whatever
[10:59] <strent> psnel: Well, IS the RAID enabled? Did you go all the way?
[10:59] <Balachmar> tetonca: Aah I see, well I don't even know what to fix, am reading a thread with a few people having the same problems at the moment
[10:59] <dominussuus> YANP: but jetscreamer's way works too
[10:59] <YANP> everything there is a problem in penguin os I still want to ctrl+alt+del =] 
[10:59] <rhoruns> ok, coolioz :)
[10:59] <kaptengu> how can I prevent network card from turning off on sleep?
[11:00] <YANP> *everytime
[11:00] <strent> psnel: I didn't do much with RAID myself, so my experience there is mostly limited to guessing.
[11:00] <jetscreamer> YANP: apt-cache search emulator | grep snes or whatever
[11:00] <jetscreamer> for a shorter list
[11:00] <tetonca> Balachmar, I don't know Evolution specifics but that is how you get a decent shell to fix it in.
[11:00] <Simo1> ok. sudo shutdown now worked
[11:00] <mikubuntu> tetonca: i just signed up for the cnr (click n run) mailing list ... i love the variety of software available for linux/ubuntu, but there's so much i want, and seems like i'm spending all my time with installation issues... maybe just growing pains, huh?
[11:00] <psnel> strent: i left he feisty upgrade unattended last night; some time (before i left) i specified "raid devices: none". this morning.. this problem
[11:00] <dominussuus> YANP: try CTRL + ALT + Backspace.  It restarts the windowing system (and eliminates most problems) without having to restart the program
[11:00] <Balachmar> tetonca: ok, thanks will remember that :)
[11:00] <Simo1> I guess my problem is the graphical shutdown dialog
[11:01] <jetscreamer> cnr is in.. ah linspire
[11:01] <YANP> dominussuus: oh ok
[11:01] <jetscreamer> i remember now
[11:01] <psnel> strent: you only need experience with NOT to raid :-)
[11:01] <tetonca> Balachmar, it's a disease.  and no problem.  You may need to invoke a window manager if you go all the way to the 'failsafe' mode when logging in.
[11:01] <YANP> now I need a penguin os t shirt
[11:01] <dominussuus> YANP: you can always google or go to UbuntuForums.org to find out how to make CTRL+ALT+Delete work
[11:01] <strent> psnel: What kind of HD do you have? SATA or ATA (IDE)?
[11:02] <tetonca> dom: ctr alt del is in /etc/inittab
[11:02] <dominussuus> YANP - thinkgeek.com
[11:02] <mikubuntu> jetscreamer: ya, it's linspire but it has it's own signup ws at cnr com
[11:02] <dominussuus> tetonca: but it doesn't work the same way as in Windows...
[11:02] <mikubuntu> i can't wait till it goes live
[11:02] <tetonca> dominussus, .. it /can/. ;)
[11:03] <dominussuus> tetonca: of course... :D...
[11:03] <Simo1> Here's my problem: When I press the button in my panel to open the shutdown/logout dialog my computer freezes. please help.
[11:03] <YANP> dominussuus: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/looflirpa/tshirt.shtml =[
[11:03] <mikubuntu> oh, well ... nite guys and thanks for all the help
[11:03] <psnel> strent: enabled? well at boot right before it falls back to the BusyBox shell it seems to be adding devices to an array (raid5, raid 10, raid 6...) never told it to, but it looks to be enabled. (cont)
[11:03] <tetonca> Simo1: close all open applications first.
[11:03] <psnel> strent: IDE
[11:03] <Simo1> ok
[11:03] <Simo1> including chat?
[11:03] <dominussuus> YANP: That's really surprising as the company who runs the store owns Linux.com :S
[11:04] <tetonca> Simo1: yes, until you figure out what else may be broken.
[11:04] <Simo1> then I won't be able to communicate with you
[11:04] <YANP> all I want is a shirt with penguin (tux) on it
[11:04] <Simo1> so tell me all I'll have to do first
[11:04] <pawan> any good ebook on ubuntu
[11:04] <strent> psnel: In busybox you should be root by default. Try either "fdisk /dev/sda" or "fdisk /dev/hda" and after that print the partition table with "p"
[11:04] <dominussuus> YANP: hehe.... ThinkGeek's great at sarcasm
[11:05] <tetonca> Simo1: near as I can guess it's hanging because an application won't quit on its own, so I'm saying to quit all of them manually before logging out/shutting down.  The place to shut down Ubuntu is in the first login screen, where it asks for your password.
[11:05] <pawan> hello
[11:05] <YANP> dominussuus: http://www.computergear.com/usebesttshirt.html rofl
[11:05] <strent> psnel: If there is a partition with ID 83 (System Linux) you should be able to mount this one.
[11:06] <boy> #MALANG
[11:06] <Mageeee> yo
[11:06] <strent> psnel: quitting (without changes) per "q"
[11:07] <dominussuus> YANP: you'll soon discover that the most moderate of Linux users are far more self-righteous than the most militant of Mac users
[11:07] <YANP> this guild wars sure does take a long time though in penguin
[11:07] <YANP> dominussuus: meaning?
[11:07] <dominussuus> YANP: meaning that you choose your words carefully in our forums :P
[11:07] <strent> psnel: If the diskname is sda, then you either have SATA or SCSI. hda determines you habe ATA (IDE) disks.
[11:08] <psnel> strent: ok. cool. i think i sorta knew that (sda vs hda)
[11:08] <dominussuus> YANP: The reason it's taking so long to set up is that Microsoft hasn't released DirectX for Linux yet (although I'm holding my breath) so what you're running right now is hacking it so it will run
[11:08] <psnel> strent: but the box is open and I can see
[11:09] <YANP> dominussuus: so penguin users are like the mac commercials of the pc?
[11:09] <YANP> oh
[11:09] <tetonca> YANP: software you can change is very different from software you are sold and told never to examine.
[11:09] <psnel> strent: i'm gona go try using busybox sh. pc in other room. u gonna b here?
[11:09] <dominussuus> YANP: see? stuff like tetonca says :D
[11:10] <dominussuus> YANP: we're very passionate about our free software and our rights to hack it
[11:10] <strent> psnel: Beeing here at least for 30 minutes.
[11:10] <dominussuus> YANP: a luxury even mac users don't have
[11:10] <tetonca> Bill Gates wants to take your right to say what /runs/ on your CPU away from you.  Don't fund that.  End of 'democracy' when you do.
[11:10] <YANP> dominussuus: I noticed.  Penguins are kinda like the bums of the cyber world.  Always want free stuff. =]   I like free though.
[11:11] <pawan> hello
[11:11] <pawan> where are we
[11:11] <psnel> strent: there are 2 IDE's. how do i make sure which one is the / partition
[11:11] <tetonca> YANP: linux people /write the code/ that Bill Gates then steals.
[11:11] <pawan> does bill gates like ubuntu
[11:12] <tetonca> pawan: he likes the HumanCircle theme girl a lot
[11:12] <pawan> is it
[11:12] <YANP> tetonca: He must steal linux code then add a pile of shit to it.
[11:12] <YANP> because vista runs like crap
[11:12] <tetonca> YANP: bingo.
[11:12] <dominussuus> tetonca: don't forget that Gates also tries to patent it and sell licenses back to Linux
[11:12] <strent> psnel: Usually hda is the boot HD, so it's vital that the partitions on this one are there. You didn't do some hardware addings prior upgrading, like adding another HD?
[11:12] <pawan> good

[11:13] <ubotu> Yanp: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:13] <dominussuus> hehe
[11:13] <tetonca> dom: what BG does is provide us with a market that demands cheap /hardware/.  Without windows we'd have free software on $$ hardware.  I'm glad he's here.
[11:13] <dominussuus> tetonca: then why does AMD exist if Microsoft provides the cheap hardware?
[11:14] <YANP> dominussuus: 4800 files remaining for download
[11:14] <tetonca> dom: IBM and Intel made mistakes.  Apple didn't.  Not back then.
[11:14] <dominussuus> YANP: if it's any consolation most of those are 100kb files
[11:14] <psnel> strent: no. went dapper (saturday) -> edgy -> feisty (sunday)
[11:14] <pawan> will ubuntu beat windows
[11:14] <YANP> dominussuus: ah ok =] 
[11:14] <tetonca> dom: Xerox let Gates have the mouse and windowing environment .. they didn't know their values.
[11:15] <tetonca> Now we're at the point where the CPU chip itself is in trouble of being appropriated.
[11:15] <dominussuus> tetonca: the people to blame are the people in the Unix wars... if they weren't so busy fighting in the late 80s then they would have been able to stop Microsoft
[11:15] <psnel> strent: but my home system has mutiple disks/partitions.. i thing it boots hda (MBR) -> hdc(1or2) ('/')
[11:15] <unagi> anyone know how to play 3g2 files?
[11:15] <tetonca> I'm trying to look into other architectures for that reason.
[11:16] <dominussuus> tetonca: the x86 chips are soooo 1993 anyway
[11:16] <tetonca> dom: I don't know.  There are very good arguments for each kind of *BSD.

[11:16] <pawan> no cracking in ubuntu
[11:17] <dominussuus> tetonca: so there were, but the point is that they turned their back on MS
[11:17] <strent> psnel: Do you remember to back up all data prior like reccomended? (I guess the answer is "no", the question is pure rhetorical). If you had a seperate /home/ partition you can save these, formatting the others and install from scratch if anything else fails.
[11:17] <dominussuus> tetonca: ... until it was too late
[11:17] <psnel> strent: theres no /dev/hda .. im on (initramfs)

[11:19] <strent> Oh, and make sure all connections are _really_ connected (testing it with the computer switched off). Busybox boots from CD and needs ramfs to unpack all programs. No partitions else mountet. That's normal.

[11:20] <rem_> hmm prob with keyb  ..
[11:20] <strent> psnel: Can't you boot via Ubuntu? The new one does boot into tryout mode by default, so you have graphcal access and all the features.
[11:20] <Simo1> hello. I found my problem. it's the program xcompmgr that stops my graphical shutdown from showing. any idea how I can fix it so I can shutdown without manually closing that program
[11:21] <dominussuus> tetonca: ... for the same reason that Macs haven't done the same

[11:23] <kintaro0e> hi all, how can i make static ip on my wireless access, i use network manager applet?
[11:23] <rapid> tetonca merci
[11:23] <Bubulle__> Wandfliese, using capital X ensure it adds exec bit only to directories and not files.
[11:23] <psnel> strent: i think I might have a Dapper lying around. otherwise, I have a 6.06 @ home
[11:23] <rapid> kintaro0e you could just ifconfig wlan0 192.168.x.x
[11:23] <Catoptromancy> newbie0034, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html#what
[11:23] <kintaro0e> rapid: what do you mean
[11:23] <kintaro0e> :))
[11:24] <rapid> kintaro0e you want to set your machine as a static ip?
[11:24] <tetonca> rapid: np
[11:24] <strent> psnel: The 7.04 boots into tryout mode, so you can test all the programs without installing them.
[11:24] <kintaro0e> rapid: yes
[11:24] <newbie0034> Catoptrmancy: thanks
[11:24] <rapid> kintaro0e use ifconfig find the wireless interface then set the ip with that command
[11:25] <psnel> strent: yes, thats what i mean by "live"

[11:26] <kintaro0e> rapid:cool..ok
[11:26] <psnel> strent: would it hurt to try boot Dapper tryout, to try fdisk etc?
[11:26] <dominussuus> YANP: how's the downloading going?
[11:26] <dnishi> i have what is probably a really stupid problem but im totally new with fixing linux
[11:27] <YANP> 3/4 of the way done. =]

[11:30] <psnel> dnishi: all that wasted time... now imagine 16 year linux XP!
[11:30] <dnishi> ive had a look at some sites and they suggest changing xorg.conf.... i have got to xorg.conf files but havent changed them
[11:31] <dominussuus> YANP: problem?
[11:31] <strent> psnel: I'm more the practical type, needing the hardware at hand. Well... Can you download the newest Ubuntu and boot from there? Might make quite a few things more simple.
[11:31] <dnishi> i just want to fix it
[11:31] <YANP> No I clicked the wrong button on gaim
[11:31] <psnel> strent: dude, thatnks for your help I don't know if we can figure anything else out before I can get a proper shell.
[11:31] <dominussuus> YANP: phew... I didn't want you to have to start that download again
[11:31] <dnishi> any suggestions?
[11:31] <YANP> only problem is cafepress doesnt have shirts i my size
[11:32] <YANP> =[
[11:32] <YANP> tis ok though..losing weight =] 
[11:32] <psnel> strent: its either wait for 7.04 DL, ot go home, get 6.06, come back...
[11:32] <strent> dnishi: I can give you my xorg.conf if you are doing nvidia AND have the proper driver installed
[11:33] <strent> psnel: 6.06 doesn't boot into graphical mode, it boots into installing.
[11:33] <psnel> strent: DL 2h 38min...
[11:33] <strent> Ack...
[11:33] <dnishi> i swear i didnt give the monitors anything they couldnt handle, and after looking in xorg.conf and xorg.conf.1 it didnt look like there was any resolution sizes that it couldnt handle
[11:33] <psnel> strent: you sure?? I'm sure it does... or was that Dapper (5.xx)
[11:34] <tetonca> dnishi: did u cook the CRT?
[11:34] <dnishi> strent: thatd be awesome

[11:37] <CardinalFang> Question:  My hardware --especially discs -- behaves strangely sometimes.  I suspect my power supply isn't supplying enough voltage.  I'm no EE, but I do have a multi-meter.  How can I check?  Is there a formula?
[11:37] <YANP> 93%
[11:37] <tetonca> CardinalFang: you have to load it to get it to work off a motherboard.
[11:38] <tetonca> An ATX PSU won't power up if disconnected from the motherboard.
[11:38] <dnishi> anyone: i tried running a command called xorgcfg but it doesnt seem to exist
[11:38] <Frogzoo> dnishi: !fixres
[11:38] <Frogzoo> dnishi: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:39] <rob555> some day it will
[11:39] <psnel> strent: going to try boot with CD (as soon as I have one), then try the stuff you said. Hope ur sill here when i come back. If not cheers & thanks
[11:39] <varka> CardinalFang: you can try installing lm-sensors first, maybe your motherboard has sensors for displaying voltages itself
[11:39] <oldude67> is there an xorgconfig in ubuntu?
[11:39] <CardinalFang> tetonca, Ah, good to know.  Thanks.  I'd rather do the work in math-space, rather than risk breaking something in meatspace.
[11:40] <strent> dnishi: You might want to try out "envy"
[11:40] <strent> psnel: Unlikely. Having to work in less than 2 hours. No Inet there.
[11:40] <CardinalFang> varka, Hmm.  I'll try that first.
[11:40] <strent> psnel: Guess I'm not the only one who might be able to help you, though.  ;)
[11:40] <varka> CardinalFang: "sudo apt-get install lm-sensors" then run "sudo sensors-detect" (say 'yes' to everything) then reboot and run "sensors"
[11:41] <tetonca> CardinalFang: the old IBM-AT PSU did not need to be connected to anything to provide power.
[11:41] <YANP> I am guessing your chances of getting a lady now that you use penguin is the same as when you used windows?
[11:41] <CardinalFang> Or second.  My first step is to unplug something unimportant and see if it's still flaky.
[11:41] <dnishi> frogzoo: how do i find my video cards bus identifier?
[11:41] <YANP> lol
[11:41] <varka> CardinalFang: but you dont have to reboot, you can load the modules needed by lm-sensors manually if you want
[11:41] <dominussuus> YANP: actually, they're substantially worse
[11:41] <psnel> strent: sounds like a sucky job. I had to be @ work 2hours ago.. thats the real world for you. Here we can find balance. aummmm. out.
[11:41] <YANP> dominussuus: how so? lol
[11:42] <YANP> I have today and tomorrow off =] 
[11:42] <psnel> strent: cool. I'll just do some more fishing :-)
[11:42] <dnishi> frogzoo: how do i find my video cards bus identifier?... its in the only AGP slot
[11:42] <strent> psnel: Don't forget we might be in opposite locations on earth. English is only second language for me.  ;)
[11:43] <dominussuus> YANP: because very few broads like to be lectured over dinner about bug fixes in the latest kernel
[11:43] <dominussuus> YANP: at least... in my experience
[11:43] <strent> psnel: Oh, and you might want to have a look at /proc/partitions

[11:51] <WebGuest> thing is that my uni use WPA and i can'r connect to uni with ubuntu
[11:51] <grapupe> puntas-granadi@hotmail.com
[11:51] <WebGuest> they have given me config file
[11:51] <WebGuest> no idea what to do with it
[11:51] <YANP> dominussuus: it doesnt work! i locks up everything =[
[11:51] <dominussuus> YANP: welcome back... https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-puerto-rico
[11:51] <dominussuus> YANP: what's the problem?
[11:51] <syanddylf> please ,how can I leave a word while my friend is not online in msn ? WebGuest:
[11:51] <varka> rem_: just move to your favourite dealer, look for nvidia-cards and buy what you can afford and you will be happy
[11:52] <YANP> I double click GW Icon...it will load up to  100% then just sit there and i cant do anything
[11:52] <CardinalFang> rem_, I bet most cards theoretically would work.  If it has a DVI output, then it should.  You could read up on X "modeline"s to tell the X server what clocks, rates, and depths to send to the video card.
[11:52] <tetonca> psnel:  try 'cat /proc/mounts' then try 'mount' to compare.
[11:52] <dominussuus> just a sec...
[11:52] <syanddylf>  WebGuest: can I ?
[11:52] <YANP> ok
[11:53] <YANP> good thing you told me about ctrl+del+backspace
[11:53] <YANP> or would have broke my computer most likely
[11:53] <rem_> k ill try that ty
[11:53] <WebGuest> yes
[11:53] <CardinalFang> rem_, Outside of modelines, several newer cards would advertise what they support well.  You'd be happy with almost anything using an Nvidia chipset.  Go to the store and spend $150 on such a card.
[11:53] <dominussuus> YANP: have you rebooted fully?
[11:54] <YANP> no
[11:54] <YANP> should i?
[11:54] <dominussuus> YANP: try that.  Failing all else it'll give us a troubleshooting baseline.  See you in a sec
[11:55] <YANP> ok
[11:55] <syanddylf> Is it possible to leave a word while my friend is not online on msn ? my os is kubuntu......
[11:55] <CardinalFang> syanddylf, no.
[11:55] <tetonca> syanddylf, depends on the client you use.  jabber might do msn by now.
[11:56] <CardinalFang> "jabber might do MSN"?
[11:56] <syanddylf> gabber is just like gaim ?tetonca: ?
[11:57] <syanddylf> CardinalFang:  Is it in ubuntu's s sources ?   jabber?
[11:57] <Shoopuf> syanddylf: try aMSN from www.getdeb.net
[11:57] <CardinalFang> syanddylf, "Jabber" is a protocol, not a program.
[11:58] <YANP> dominussuus: still locks up
[11:58] <syanddylf>  Shoopuf: ok
[11:58] <YANP> dominussuus: just so you know guild wars takes 2 discs to install does that help?
[11:58] <syanddylf>  CardinalFang: oh ,get it ,thank you
[11:59] <CardinalFang> syanddylf, Most any chat client will work as much as it can.  Be prepared to discover that MSN protocol may not ever support offline sending of messages.
[12:00] <tetonca> CardinalFang, my bad.  I was thinking of psi (psi-im.org).
[12:00] <dominussuus> YANP: ... not sure yet.  Right-click the icon, go to properties, and copy the command path
[12:00] <YANP> what is the command path?
[12:00] <Shoopuf> CardinalFang:, syanddylf: MSN does support offline messages but programs like Pidgin and GAIM don't, so maybe aMSN can do offlien messages. Worse that happens is send an eMail. :P
[12:01] <YANP> env WINEPREFIX="/home/christopher/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe"
[12:01] <syanddylf> CardinalFang:  thank you very much
[12:01] <dominussuus> YANP: that's it
[12:02] <Spudgun1> Ahoy hoy.
[12:02] <dominussuus> YANP: in a console type "wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Guild\ Wars/Gw.exe"
[12:02] <syanddylf> Shoopuf: that is a email but not a message ,really?
[12:02] <syanddylf> oh ,no
[12:02] <dominussuus> YANP: basically, I want to see where it breaks
[12:03] <dnishi> strent: i have 1 working now, how did you get 2 working?
[12:03] <dnishi> Frogzoo: thankyou! it worked :)
[12:04] <YANP> dominussuus: that loads gw..and freezes everything
[12:04] <mutou09> 2121
[12:04] <mutou09> ?
[12:04] <dominussuus> YANP: and there's no spit-out in the console?
[12:04] <blackest> hi i need to troubleshoot permissions how do i check to see what user and group a daemon is running as
[12:04] <YANP> there is but I cant get to it
[12:04] <YANP> because it locks up everything
[12:05] <YANP> There is a lot of spit out
[12:05] <mutou09> ?
[12:05] <dominussuus> YANP: okay, in that case, run the command but add " > ~/Dump.txt" to the end of the command
[12:05] <Shoopuf> !ch | mutuo09
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ch - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:05] <YANP> going to need cmd again
[12:06] <Shoopuf> !cn | mutuo09
[12:06] <ubotu> mutuo09: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[12:06] <dominussuus> YANP: yep, this is linux, most things are done at the command because it's easier than saying "now click on Start-> All Programs..."
[12:06] <Don64> !cn
[12:06] <ScHmik07> hi
[12:06] <JodiH> hi again just restarted installation seems to take along time on trying to enable the frame buffer is this normal
[12:06] <YANP> Ok well going to need the cmd list again
[12:07] <YANP> like the whole thing
[12:07] <dominussuus> oh... right...
[12:07] <YANP> ctrl+alt+backspace removes clipboard
[12:07] <dominussuus> YANP: just keep pressing up in the console until you find it
[12:07] <dominussuus> (like, the up arrow key)
[12:07] <YANP> ok
[12:07] <hagabaka> heh "for Ubuntu help in Chinese" is untranslated
[12:07] <dominussuus> YANP: cuz I'm too lazy to copy and paste it :P
[12:08] <dominussuus> hagabaka: care to earn 50 karma points?
[12:08] <jenda> Any idea if I can switch a 512 MiB memory stick from an Acer Aspire 1652 to an IBM LENOVO 3000 N100?
[12:08] <hagabaka> i can't type Chinese currently
[12:09] <hagabaka> if that's what you're talking about :p
[12:09] <dominussuus> hagabaka: indeed it is :)
[12:10] <YANP> dominussuus: christopher@christopher-desktop:~$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Guild\ Wars/Gw.exe > ~/Dump.txt
[12:10] <YANP> it should look like that?
[12:10] <vermoos> hi
[12:10] <dominussuus> YANP: yes
[12:10] <Simo1> hm. trying to get hep for beryl but there's noone in ubuntu-effects...
[12:10] <Simo1> noone that answers anyway
[12:10] <dominussuus> YANP: all that does is save the dump to a file so you can collect it and post it to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30878/
[12:10] <selinuxium_> Hi there, can I print an ODT file fromthe command line, over ssh
[12:10] <selinuxium_> ?>
[12:11] <YANP> I did that..but it locked up..
[12:11] <YANP> it isnt on desktop either
[12:11] <dominussuus> YANP: gaaahh
[12:11] <YANP> Do I remove '>'
[12:12] <YANP> ?
[12:12] <Gruelius> hey everyone, ive fixed my wireless by using iwpriv in /etc/network/interfaces and removing network manager however i manually need to run dhclient ra0 for it to ge an ip e.t.c. How do i get it to automatically use dhcp to get an ip
[12:12] <dominussuus> YANP: no.. it appears the file didn't open in time...
[12:12] <YANP> ok I will try again
[12:12] <dominussuus> YANP: I'll need to do some more reading
[12:12] <YANP> ok
[12:12] <CardinalFang> Gruelius, "man interfaces"
[12:12] <YANP> I will keep trying
[12:13] <vermoos> can anyone help with this problem i have had for a while:
[12:13] <vermoos> i install a package using apt-get, say 'postgresql', and i need to use it, only 'which postgresql' gives no reply. How do i find out how to invoke it?
[12:14] <relix> hi
[12:14] <YANP> still froze didnt work in time
[12:14] <relix> anyone know if the linux UVC drivers are compatible with the linux flash player?
 gives me 2002 possibilities! none which start with 'postgresql'
[12:15] <YANP> in the mean time..does anyone know how I get NES, SNES, Gameboy Emulators on Ubuntu?
[12:16] <p3nnyw1z3> as long as you have the repos enabled sudo apt-get install zsnes
[12:16] <CardinalFang> vermoos, $ dpkg -L ${packagename}
[12:16] <p3nnyw1z3> I know that one for sure
[12:16] <IceLink> hey there
[12:16] <p3nnyw1z3> haven't really tried the others
[12:17] <p3nnyw1z3> and you will use zsnes at command to start it..
[12:18] <IceLink> i reconfigured xorg in order to be able to show full screen-apps, but now, if i shutdown, the shutdown-sound starts and suddenly, it stops and the monitor turns dark for 1 second, then it is a little bit lighter than dark. the computer is working but not shutting down. same happens when changing to console-mode
[12:18] <alesan> hi
[12:18] <p3nnyw1z3> but you would have more fun getting your face shot off in sauerbraten
[12:18] <alesan> I have 4GB installed on my pc but ubuntu only recognizes 3GB, any check I can do?
[12:19] <p3nnyw1z3> ram or hard drive?
[12:19] <alesan> ram
[12:19] <p3nnyw1z3> was about to say that is a small hard drive
[12:20] <p3nnyw1z3> I find it hard to believe there is a thousand people with nothing to say
[12:20] <oldude67> something..:D
[12:21] <syanddylf> hoho,if they all talk......
[12:21] <tetonca> 3GB seems an odd boundary.
[12:21] <oldude67> alesan, what is the exact amount that ubuntu says you have...or does it just show 3gig?
[12:22] <syanddylf> nobody can see anything
[12:22] <alesan> oldude67, http://www.pastebin.ca/630608
[12:22] <alesan> this is the pastebin of free
[12:22] <alesan> shall I also paste dmesg or similar?
[12:23] <dominussuus> YANP: do you know what your video card is?
[12:23] <YANP> tetonca: I installed nestra but dont know where it went..how do I find it and where do I get roms for it?
[12:23] <YANP> dominussuus: yes
[12:23] <YANP> dominussuus: let me look
[12:23] <wangjing> your system is 32bit
[12:23] <alesan> wangjing, who?
[12:23] <oldude67> alesan, and do you have onboard video?
[12:24] <andika> alesan: yep, dmesg will help
[12:24] <YANP> dominussuus: Nvidia geforce 6150 Le Graphics
[12:24] <alesan> oldude67, there is on the motherboard but disabled in BIOS.
[12:25] <YANP> Where do i get roms for nestra? any rom site?
[12:25] <dominussuus> YANP: could you open /etc/X11/xorg.conf in a text editor and make sure there's something at the bottom about DRI?
[12:26] <YANP> I do that in console?
[12:26] <ubuntu-fr> hello
[12:26] <alesan> wait pastebin is very slow.
[12:26] <dominussuus> YANP: you can, but not necessarily.  Are you using a 64-bit processor?
[12:26] <YANP> I dont know..
[12:27] <YANP> I will write down everything for my computer..not even sure what ubuntu I am using
[12:27] <YANP> it is a burned cd
[12:27] <YANP> just says linux lol
[12:27] <wangjing> alesan: you must compile kernel to support big RAM
[12:27] <dominussuus> YANP: I mean your computer, is it an AMD 64 or something like that?
[12:27] <YANP> dominussuus: AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 4000+
[12:28] <dominussuus> YANP: @#*&$(!!! Mother $%#*(G&$#(
[12:28] <YANP> ?
[12:28] <dominussuus> YANP: Good news: I gave you the wrong script to execute :S
[12:28] <YANP> so what now?
[12:28] <dominussuus> YANP: so get another cup of coffee
[12:28] <YANP> i no drink coffee =] 
[12:29] <alesan> wangjing, no problem to compile a kernel but what are the Ubuntu "settings"? I'd prefer not to loose the ability to upgrade.
[12:29] <dominussuus> YANP: Smoke?
[12:29] <YANP> nope
[12:29] <YANP> =] 
[12:29] <bullgard4> Why is written in http://aids.nstl.gov.cn/.php?action=view&file=%2Fusr%2Fsrc%2Flinux-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl%2Fdrivers%2Facpi%2Fnamespace%2Fnsxfeval.c in front of 'acpi_evaluate_object (' a line 'acpi_status'?
[12:29] <YANP> I will take some more pills for headache =] 
[12:29] <iarwain_> hiya, anyone knows how to mount a PDA? i know the bus device Nr it uses via lsusb, but i don't know where to go from here..
[12:30] <Shoopuf> YANP: don't get the repository ZSNES
[12:30] <YANP> i install nestra
[12:30] <Shoopuf> YANP: get the newest version zSNES 1.51 from www.getdeb.net -- much more stable.
[12:30] <YANP> from the synaptic
[12:31] <Shoopuf> YANP: OK, that's for NES, not SNES. :) For NES I recommend GFCE Ultra NES Emulator (in the repository)
[12:32] <EvanLugh> Hey
[12:32] <Shoopuf> YANP: Or if you know how to compile NEStopia is the best one around. ;)
[12:32] <dominussuus> YANP: new file: http://rhodes.awardspace.info/winebuild64.sh save it to your hard drive
[12:32] <YANP> i only know how to play guild wars and go on myspace
[12:32] <Arpa121> Hello I have deleted all of my desktops and now I DOWNLOAD 2 DESKTOP'S binarys :D how can I set them in command line to Ubuntu ?
[12:32] <YANP> dominussuus: okay
[12:33] <alesan> http://pastebin.com/d3f64e73c <- here I put the output of dmesg. I have 4GB of ram but ubuntu only recognizes 3GB.
[12:33] <EvanLugh> Anyone got a Vista/Ubuntu guide please? :)
[12:33] <Arpa121> alesan you could use windows
[12:33] <dominussuus> YANP: We have to do some of this work again... but I hope it'll be faster.  Once you have it run it from the console: "sh ~/Desktop/winebuild64.sh"
[12:33] <iarwain_> hiya, anyone knows how to mount a PDA? i know the bus device Nr it uses via lsusb, but i don't know where to go from here..
[12:34] <dominussuus> iarwain_: what kind of PDA?
[12:34] <YANP> dominussuus: christopher@christopher-desktop:~$ sh ~/Desktop/winebuild64.sh
[12:34] <YANP> You don't need this because you don't have an x86_64 linux distro!
[12:34] <Arpa121> alesan you could use windows
[12:34] <Arpa121> Hello I have deleted all of my desktops and now I DOWNLOAD 2 DESKTOP'S binarys :D how can I set them in command line to Ubuntu ?
[12:34] <iarwain_> dominussuus: actually it's a gps, an Alegro. But as it doesn't work well.. so i call it a pda xD
[12:35] <EvanLugh> Anyone? =] 
[12:35] <alesan> Arpa121, what do you mean?
[12:35] <dominussuus> YANP: hmmm... the possible causes for error have opened up a little bit...
[12:35] <YANP> maybe I have the wrong ubuntu version?
[12:35] <iarwain_> EvanLugh: did you search the forum? Probabely there is a sort of guide over there :)
[12:35] <Arpa121> I mean now I have desktop , I would when my OS come up , show this desktop
[12:35] <Arpa121> how can I set desktop to ubuntu ?:d
[12:36] <dominussuus> YANP: that's the thing.  If you have a 64-bit computer you should be using a 64-bit version of Ubuntu
[12:36] <EvanLugh> Iarwain_ : Could you link me please, I've got the forum bookmarked from about 2 years ago and can't find the new-en with all the docs etc >_<
[12:36] <alesan> Arpa121, what do you mean with using windows?
[12:36] <Shoopuf> Arpa121: Did you already install Ubuntu or just use LiveCD?
[12:36] <Arpa121> no I installed
[12:36] <YANP> ok well how do I check if I am using that?  My friend gave me the cd...so I dont know what it was
[12:36] <YANP> just said linux and he doesnt know if it is amd or not
[12:37] <Arpa121> but now there is no desktop - I haVE  deleted them by my self
[12:37] <Shoopuf> Arpa121: You want Ubuntu to turn on when you open your computer, is that the question?
[12:37] <Arpa121> and no I have downloaded one desktop and I would set that
[12:37] <Arpa121> noooooooooooooooo
[12:37] <Shoopuf> Arpa121: You mean wallpaper?
[12:37] <Arpa121> no
[12:37] <Arpa121> :((
[12:37] <dominussuus> YANP: I don't know whether using a 32-bit operating system on a 64-bit processor is the reason for your problem.  It could be, it could be something else
[12:38] <Arpa121> I Developed one simple desktop by my self ok? I would set this desktop instead of GNOME
[12:38] <iarwain_> EvanLugh: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=388756&highlight=vista+ubutnu specifically post nr 17
[12:38] <Arpa121> how can I do this in command Line?
[12:38] <YANP> ok but I should be using 64 since I am on 64 right?
[12:38] <Shoopuf> YANP: I have AMD 64 but use 32-bit -- more programs available
[12:38] <EvanLugh> Ok , i'll have a look, thanks iarwain_ appreciate it
[12:38] <iarwain_> EvanLugh: np's man :)
[12:39] <dominussuus> Shoopuf: what are the issues in running wine or 3d software on a 64-bit processor?
[12:39] <YANP> Shoopuf: only program I want is guild wars
[12:39] <kyja> what is a good pop3 server? I cant seem to get some to run and some refuse passwords
[12:39] <dominussuus> Shoopuf: we've compiled wine with direct3d extensions so he can run guildwars but it's crashing on loading
[12:40] <dominussuus> Shoopuf: so I don't know if it's a processor issue
[12:40] <Arpa121> nobody knows?:(
[12:41] <iarwain_> Arpa121: sorry, but i didn't follow exactly. What are you trying to do
[12:41] <iarwain_> Arpa121: ?
[12:41] <Arpa121> iarwain , I developed one simple desktop by my self - and I would to set it as Main desktop for my ubuntu ! how can I do this?
[12:42] <iarwain_> Arpa121: (use tab to complete my name;) ) what do you mean, developed?
[12:42] <wangjing> alesan: sudo cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config              sudo make xconfig
[12:42] <wangjing> then switch to support 4G
[12:43] <YANP> with nestra can I download any nes rom or does it have to be a linux version?
[12:43] <ace_suares> hi, what kernel should Ubuntu Dapper Server edition run? I am getting confused, should it be -server or -686 ?

[12:43] <ace_suares> !kernel
[12:43] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[12:43] <[M] Fox> Arpa121, Watch out pal !! speak in Eng
[12:43] <dominussuus> YANP: sorry, still no answer yet for your GW issue

[12:44] <[M] Fox> !desktop
[12:44] <ubotu> A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM  and others.
[12:44] <dominussuus> YANP: you're welcome but good intentions doesn't get you slaying orcs
[12:44] <ace_suares> !server
[12:44] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[12:44] <kyja> actualy please tell me of an smtp and pop3 that works togeter.
[12:44] <[M] Fox> !Xfce
[12:44] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels

[12:45] <Myrtti> dudette.

[12:47] <dominussuus> YANP: then it's usually "nestra <path to whatever your NES rom is called>"
[12:48] <iarwain_> agent: why do i think you are Arpa?
[12:48] <rhoruns> i'll pay someone $2 if they can get my sound working lol

[12:48] <ari_stress> hello all, what kernel should i use to support 16GB of RAM?
[12:48] <alesan> wangjing, then the help system is not correct
[12:48] <agent> what a  fack
[12:48] <neocortex> Myrtti: yes I can
[12:48] <ari_stress> !kernel
[12:48] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[12:48] <alesan> it seems 64GB should be only if I have more than 4GB
[12:49] <agent> a
[12:49] <Myrtti> neocortex: then I'd say you've got an intresting problem :-)
[12:49] <agent> yoz think so
[12:49] <dominussuus> YANP: unfortunately, I'm not terribly familiar with the software, so I don't really know how to configure things like joysticks
[12:49] <ari_stress> alesan: are you looking for big-mem kernel too?
[12:49] <neocortex> Myrtti: I can print from all other apps, but if I try "Create a PDF Document" from Evince ... Nope
[12:50] <alesan> ari_stress, I just have 4GB and ubuntu detects 3GB only
[12:50] <YANP> dominussuus: its ok i am still trying to get it to start lol nestra pacman.nes doesnt work lol
[12:50] <Myrtti> neocortex: you've got the pdf-printer installed and all
[12:50] <YANP> anyone in here know how to use nestra?
[12:50] <ari_stress> alesan: oh. do you think we need "other" kernel than the standard?
[12:50] <agent> egegereg
[12:50] <agent> heheheheheheheh
[12:50] <Myrtti> agent: last warning
[12:50] <ari_stress> alesan: i plan to install ubuntu on more than 4gb
[12:50] <Myrtti> agent: behave.
[12:51] <neocortex> Myrtti: Well, I am not sure. I have cups-pdf, if that's what you meen
[12:51] <alesan> ari_stress, wangjing sugested to recompile a kernel with 64GB ram support.
[12:51] <Myrtti> neocortex: so you've got it...
[12:51] <ari_stress> alesan: what? compile my own kernel? oh noo
[12:51] <agent> whay
[12:51] <rhoruns> if anyone has an answer to my problem, please post in my thread, or holler at me in here, thanks! :D   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3065952&posted=1#post3065952
[12:51] <neocortex> yes, is there any other pdf priter that I should have
[12:51] <agent> last warning
[12:52] <alesan> ari_stress, if you plan to install more than 4GB you should think about a 64bit ubuntu version
[12:52] <YANP> dominussuus: oh what is the command for flash player?
[12:52] <Myrtti> agent: do you have any problems with your ubuntu? or do you want to help others?
[12:52] <agent> what is this ubuntuz
[12:52] <dominussuus> YANP: "sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree"
[12:52] <Myrtti> agent: this is a high traffic channel so we ask of you to keep the offtopic and random stuff somewhere else.
[12:52] <ari_stress> alesan: if i use a 64 bit, will it support big memory out of the box?
[12:52] <alesan> ari_stress, very likely
[12:52] <YANP> dominussuus: thanks
[12:53] <Jjohn> Is there anyone here from Perth Western Australia or the perth LUG??

[12:53] <Myrtti> past tense.
[12:53] <ari_stress> alesan: do you know whether LTSP will work on ubuntu 64bit?
[12:53] <Myrtti> I just had the kick command ready in the pasteboard
[12:53] <YANP> er didnt work I will just follow instructions on the website
[12:53] <agent> myrtti what is ubuntu
[12:53] <alesan> what is LTSP?

[12:57] <Jjohn> ari_stress, I do not agree with the bot
[12:57] <renihs> is there an "unofficial" ubuntu-chat channel for offtopic? (dunno what isnot offtopic?)

[12:58] <renihs> thanks
[12:58] <Myrtti> np
[12:58] <Jork> and if you see that equalizer is playing
[12:58] <Jork> means that sound is vorking but you must switch audigy switch to on in alsamixer
[12:58] <rhoruns> i already did, and whenever i open an mp3 player, it always says something about 'cannot open resource for writing'
[12:58] <rhoruns> and it does not play any sound either
[12:59] <Jork> hmm
[12:59] <YANP> Can someone help me: In terminal, navigate to this directory and type ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer. Click Enter. The installer will instruct you to shut down your browser(s).

[12:59] <Jork> aha
[01:00] <rhoruns> yes, even when i try to open in terminal
[01:00] <Jork> hmm
[01:00] <Jork> I use audigy 1 and it works fine in feisty

[01:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about path - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:04] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: you use xdmcp?
[01:04] <DeepBlade> yes
[01:04] <marsje_> I was wondering what is the difference between aptitude and apt-get. I understand aptitude uses apt-get. I always use apt-get. Why should I use aptitude?
[01:04] <DeepBlade> well right now, now, i'm using vnc
[01:04] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: why? :)
[01:04] <DeepBlade> because vnc is choppy
[01:04] <Hazler> Does Teamspeak work PERFECTLY on anyones computer?
[01:05] <rhoruns> i already have all the alsamixer GUIs. im reinstalling all of them.
[01:05] <adxp> after modifying a file in event.d, how can I get ubuntu to notice the change and act on it? (I've added a respawn entry)
[01:05] <DeepBlade> i'd like to try xdmcp, i did, and things are a lot smoother
[01:05] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: ssh -x
[01:05] <Amaranth> err, ssh -X
[01:05] <DeepBlade> i don't get the interface though, the environment
[01:05] <bullgard4> Why is there in front of the function declaration 'acpi_evaluate_object' a row 'acpi_status'?
[01:05] <rhoruns> Jork, "An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for GNOME ALSA Mixer. Some of your configuration settings may not work properly"
[01:06] <DeepBlade> is there a way for me to get the startup environment via ssh -X? i know i can open apps...
[01:06] <bullgard4> Why is there in  http://tinyurl.com/2vy5ul in front of the function declaration 'acpi_evaluate_object' a row 'acpi_status'?
[01:06] <Jork> hm
[01:06] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: I don't know anyone using XDMCP so finding help for it is going to be hard
[01:06] <Hazler> Does anyone know where to get Skype?
[01:06] <rhoruns> www.skype.com
[01:06] <adxp> Hazler: skype.com
[01:06] <rhoruns> lol
[01:06] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: I didn't even know it still worked, actually
[01:06] <Hazler> haha
[01:06] <dominussuus> YANP: The Guild Wars problem is likely because you need a 64-bit edition of Ubuntu, sadly
[01:06] <Jork> I am not shure but I thing that audigy 2 have some complications in Feisty so try to download and istall alsa drivers for audigy 2
[01:06] <Hazler> Alright
[01:06] <Hazler> Thanks
[01:06] <DeepBlade> =( there must be someone who knows what's going on..
[01:07] <rhoruns> i did lol
[01:07] <Jork> hm
[01:07] <DeepBlade> cause the keyboard works right before i log in
[01:07] <Jork> then try to plug the sound card in diferent pci slot
[01:07] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: GNOME is setting up your keyboard again after you login
[01:08] <Jork> or change te irq's in
[01:08] <rhoruns> the card works just fine in Windows XP though.
[01:08] <DeepBlade> Amaranth: okay fine, is there a way for me to get the environment and using ssh -X?
[01:08] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: my guess is it's setting it up for the mac keyboard, which doesn't work the same
[01:08] <adxp> DeepBlade: I don't understand your question. acpi_status specifies the type of the function's return value.
[01:08] <YANP> dominussuus: ok
[01:08] <kaushal> I am using sudo apt-get install firefox
[01:08] <Jork> bios
[01:08] <YANP> so I should download and install that
[01:08] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: well you could start 'gnome-session' and get a full remote session
[01:08] <Amaranth> DeepBlade: that'll be panels and all
[01:08] <DeepBlade> adxp: my keyboard mapping is messed up after i login..
[01:08] <kaushal> so if i use aptitude how it will be
[01:08] <Shoopuf> DownThemAll for Firefox gives me some problems -- anyone recommend a good, simple, Download Manager & Resumer?

[01:09] <DeepBlade> hm.. ok let me try that
[01:09] <dominussuus> YANP: well it's not quite that simple.  You're looking at reinstalling your operating system
[01:09] <kaushal> I mean the command
[01:09] <adxp> DeepBlade: Sorry, that was meant for bullgard4
[01:09] <DeepBlade> adxp: lol ok
[01:09] <YANP> well installing ubuntu the first time was simple
[01:09] <bullgard4> adxp: What was menat for me?
[01:09] <bullgard4> meant
[01:09] <adxp> bullgard4: I don't understand your question. acpi_status specifies the
[01:09] <adxp>        type of the function's return value.
[01:10] <kaushal> I am getting Errors were encountered while processing:

[01:10] <dominussuus> YANP: well that's good.  See whether your friend can hook you up with an amd-64 version of ubuntu
[01:10] <adxp> kaushal: pls try to keep your messages on one line
[01:10] <dominussuus> YANP: or you'll be looking at burning your own copy
[01:11] <YANP> my friend is in hawaii right now
[01:11] <Jjohn> kaushal, why do you wish to change fro a working apt-get??
[01:11] <YANP> i am sure I can burn my own copy
[01:11] <YANP> i have made plenty of cds before
[01:11] <kaushal> I am getting the same error when i run apt-get install firefox
[01:11] <psnel> someone plz help to disable post-feisty upgrade RAID (mdadm) , and boot into old partition
[01:12] <Jork> enybody know how to setup my secondary disk to writable disk?
[01:12] <Jjohn> kaushal, O sorry
[01:12] <dominussuus> YANP: alternatively, if you have 3 weeks to kill you can order a copy from Canonical and they'll ship it to you for free
[01:12] <DeepBlade> Amaranth: hm.. i think i could live with this.. THANKS SO MUCH
[01:12] <adxp> Jork: mount it -o rw
[01:12] <YANP> i dont have 3 weeks lol already been out of the guild wars scene for like 2 weeks and that is to long I am about to die =[
[01:13] <bullgard4> adxp: Your message answers my question. I did not know that an identifier in front of a function's declaration specifies the functions return value.
[01:13] <Jork> even if i mount it i still can svae files on them
[01:13] <jetscreamer> zomg!
[01:13] <Jork> save*
[01:13] <Shoopuf> DownThemAll for Firefox gives me some problems -- anyone recommend a good, simple, Download Manager & Resumer?
[01:13] <tetonca> psnel, that's probably not possible to do.
[01:13] <psnel> tetonca: why not?
[01:13] <adxp> Jork: I don't understand. If you can save files, it's writable, so isn't your problem solved?
[01:13] <bullgard4> adxp: Rather the type.
[01:14] <psnel> tetonca: using knoppix.. old partitions seem ok
[01:14] <tetonca> psnel, didn't the setup tell you it was irrevocable?
[01:14] <jetscreamer> boot options, probably something like raid=false or whatever
[01:14] <tetonca> psnel, oh. my bad.
[01:14] <jetscreamer> if that's what you seek
[01:14] <Jork> sorry for my broken english. Even if i mount the disk I still Can't save files on them
[01:14] <adxp> bullgard4: it specifies the /type/ of the return value
[01:14] <jetscreamer> i'm not saying it will work, just that's how to not do raid
[01:14] <jetscreamer> i think
[01:14] <bullgard4> adxp: Yes I see. Thank you again for explaining.
[01:15] <tetonca> psnel, you might tell grub 'init=/bin/sh' to get a root shell.
[01:15] <adxp> Jork: ok, and have you tried mounting it with the -o rw option? Also, do you know what file system is used on the second disk?
[01:15] <psnel> tetonca: dusing  upgr, when asked about which drives/parts to inlcude in RAID, I typed "none"... it's still trying to configure RAID at bootup, then fails
[01:15] <dominussuus> !amd64
[01:15] <ubotu> AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[01:15] <adxp> bullgard4: np
[01:15] <Jork> how can I mount it with -o rw option?
[01:15] <Narada> hi all; what package is it to start using the nvidia driver; there seem to be quite a few nvidia packages
[01:15] <Jork> file system is used as a ext2
[01:16] <psnel> tetonca: is that necessary? knoppix gives me shell... i just need to configure now. can you help?
[01:16] <tetonca> psnel, no experience specific to that problem on my side.  The more info you provide the more likely someone can help.
[01:16] <adxp> Open /etc/fstab, and look for your drive's entry there. You want to make sure it doesn't say -o ro (read-only). If it does, remove it, and then do mount <drive>
[01:17] <dominussuus> YANP: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download you want the 64bit AMD version
[01:17] <YANP> how do I navigate to a directory? I type cd c and it says no such thing
[01:17] <rhoruns> is it normal to see "Capabilities: <access denied>" on all devices when using lspci -v???
[01:17] <dominussuus> YANP: that's because the directory structure is completely different in linux
[01:17] <agent> what is this for  side
[01:17] <MoLE_> rhoruns, you need to sudo lspci -v
[01:18] <rhoruns> ohh
[01:18] <YANP> dominussuus: already at 30% =] 
[01:18] <rhoruns> lol ok
[01:18] <stuart_> is it normal to use up 5GB for a xubuntu and ubuntu install only? and some additional small progs like XMMS and Pidgin
[01:18] <Jjohn> YANP  cd /name
[01:18] <dominussuus> YANP: what is?
[01:18] <adxp> folks, sorry to ask again -- anyone got any idea how to get upstart in ubuntu to re-read the event.d directory after changes have been made?
[01:18] <rhoruns> i keep forgetting that, "make me a sandwhich!!!" picture :D
[01:18] <agent> hahahahah

[01:19] <dominussuus> YANP: ooohhh, okay :D excellent.  write down the link for that shell script http://rhodes.awardspace.info/winebuild64.sh and run it after you install Ubuntu
[01:19] <Jjohn> YANP, you do not have a 'C' drive in linux
[01:19] <jetscreamer> you could always create a /c
[01:19] <YANP> adxp: c is the name of the folder
[01:19] <psnel> tetonca: i get err during boot (after upgrade): "madm: no devices listed in conf file were found"
[01:19] <agent> rhoruns what do you want
[01:20] <jetscreamer> did you create it as root and are trying to acces it as user?
[01:20] <dominussuus> YANP: not quite
[01:20] <rhoruns> agent, i want you to shut up, you drunk guy
[01:20] <rhoruns> lol
[01:20] <Jjohn> jetscreamer, he is trying to navigate the file system

[01:20] <rhoruns> someone please ban agent.. lol
[01:20] <tetonca> psnel, can you just reinstall from scratch?  Or boot from knoppix and transfer the files to another drive?
[01:20] <YANP> In terminal, navigate to this directory and type ./flashplayer-installer  to run the installer. Click Enter. The installer will instruct  you to shut down your browser(s).
[01:21] <YANP> but cant get to "c" folder

[01:21] <Narada> what's the recommended way of installing nvidia drivers on ubuntu/kubuntu
[01:21] <YANP> jetscreamer: I dont know what you are saying
[01:21] <rhoruns> lol@agent
[01:22] <dominussuus> YANP: that's because there isn't one.  What directory is flash player looking for?
[01:22] <psnel> tetonca: i suppose thats possible. I can access the files. also DL'ing Feisty image at the mo' ... but I'd prefer if I can slove withour reinstall
[01:22] <YANP> all I want is flashplayer and to play pacman on nestra cant do either
[01:22] <jetscreamer> YANP: you might type in an xterm or console     sudo chown -R yanip:yanip /c
[01:22] <YANP> i changed the name of the folder to "c"
[01:22] <YANP> because didnt want to keep trying to type it in
[01:22] <tetonca> psnel, there may be a more elegant way but I'm unfamiliar with it.
[01:22] <Shoopuf> DownThemAll for Firefox gives me some problems -- anyone recommend a good, simple, Download Manager & Resumer?
[01:22] <stuart_> my clock is at the right time but i can't run commands because: sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 23 21:59:32 2007
[01:22] <dominussuus> YANP: what folder? what did you do?
[01:22] <Amaranth> stuart_: try a different terminal
[01:22] <Jjohn> Is there anyone here from Perth Western Australia or the perth LUG?? I would like to get a copy of efty and feisty so I can update my dapper system
[01:22] <YANP> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[01:23] <stuart_> Amaranth, same thing
[01:23] <YANP> option 1
[01:23] <polloloco> vian.nl
[01:23] <Nephelauxetic> How do I grant CDROM access to a certain group (not only a certain user?)
[01:23] <Amaranth> stuart_: reboot
[01:23] <stuart_> Amaranth, alrigth
[01:23] <bullgard4> Why do exist two directories /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/ and /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.20//Documentation instead of one?
[01:23] <agent_> somthig to fack here
[01:23] <tapas> in ubuntu , what's the place to set environment variables for a specific user?
[01:23] <tapas> so that they are set even for programs started by e.g. gnome or kde
[01:24] <YANP> this is why I dont like penguin I cant do anything cant even play pacman or go on youtube
[01:24] <tetonca> tapas: ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc
[01:24] <tapas> [so it's not .bashrc] 
[01:24] <agent_> hjdcfkjhdsfhskdfhskjdfhjkdsfhjksdfhjksdfhjkvhsdbsjkdfhjksdbvkjsdfhjkhdf
[01:24] <stuart_> anyways if i remove my xubuntu, how much space would that free up?
[01:24] <dominussuus> YANP: okay, save that file to your desktop, right click it and say something to the effect of "extract here"
[01:24] <YANP> it is already on my desktop
[01:24] <tetonca> tapas: maybe ~/.profile
[01:24] <YANP> Unpackage the file. A directory called install_flash_player_9_linux will be created.
[01:24] <psnel> tetonca: thanks I'll keep asking... is there maybe another support channel that could help?
[01:24] <tapas> tetonca: tried that. didn't help
[01:24] <YANP> I changed "install_flash_player_9_linux" to "c"
[01:24] <Jork> adpx thanx for hlep
[01:25] <YANP> to long of a name to type
[01:25] <dominussuus> YANP: got it
[01:25] <[UPG] Pritchard> Yo guys
[01:25] <Jjohn> psnel, try kubuntu
[01:25] <dominussuus> YANP: so you have a directory called C on your desktop?
[01:25] <psnel> tetonca: thanks
[01:25] <tetonca> psnel, maybe a Linux mailing list comp.os.linux.*
[01:25] <agent_> wha t the fuck
[01:25] <YANP> yes
[01:25] <[UPG] Pritchard> I'm using Ubuntu Dapper Drake.   How would I update from 6.xxx to 7.04?
[01:25] <tetonca> that was a newsgroup. /me braindead
[01:25] <Nephelauxetic> How do I grant CDROM access to a certain group (not only a certain user?) Or how do a add a whole user group to the "cdrom" group?
[01:25] <dominussuus> YANP: so the directory is actually called ~/Desktop/C/
[01:25] <tapas> i tried .xsession, too
[01:25] <daedra> xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/simon/.Xauthority
[01:26] <tapas> bt that file doesn't seem to  get read either
[01:26] <Nephelauxetic> [UPG] Pritchard, apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:26] <agent_> agahahahahaha
[01:26] <agent_> a
[01:26] <agent_> a
[01:26] <agent_> aa
[01:26] <agent_> a
[01:26] <agent_> vbcv#
[01:26] <dominussuus> YANP: it's the same idea in Windows where Desktop is actually C:\My Documents\bunch of rubbish\Desktop
[01:26] <YANP> nevermind I just double click it and it ran
[01:26] <[UPG] Pritchard> @Nephelauxetic:  Thanks a lot! ^.^;;
[01:26] <daedra> I have a problem when ssh tunnelling X
[01:26] <dominussuus> YANP: that also works :D
[01:26] <YANP> 30 mins to find out I should just shoot myself in the face
[01:26] <tetonca> tapas: why not script it?  the /menu/ is probably what you wish to change the behavior of.  Give an example of what variable you want to change.
[01:26] <tapas> tetonca: PATH :)
[01:27] <dominussuus> YANP: this is why people should have a trained professional helping them install Linux :D
[01:27] <YANP> it isnt that..its I cant do anything on here
[01:27] <tapas> tetonca: so the alt-f2 kde run dialg finds muy softweare installed in nonstandard places
[01:27] <mwander_> i have an extra pc on which windoze is pretty much toast (will not fully run) - can i install ubuntu using a boot disk? what is the easiest way to do so?
[01:27] <YANP> I still dont know where nestra is
[01:27] <YANP> or how to play pacman
[01:27] <tetonca> tapas: PATH=/foo/bar:$PATH <command>
[01:27] <dominussuus> YANP: I'll have an answer for you in a minute...
[01:27] <YANP> I dont understand this suda get apt install thingy
[01:28] <daedra> When I run ssh 127.0.0.1 X I get "xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/simon/.Xauthority"
[01:28] <tapas> tetonca:well, why this is a corect solution i'd call it suboptimal
[01:28] <daedra> after login
[01:28] <tapas> s/why/while/
[01:28] <suoko> hi
[01:28] <Jjohn> YANP, sudo apt-get
[01:28] <Shoopuf> YANP: If you find a file that is ".DEB" that means you can just download and double-click, I tend to look for those when I want a program. :)
[01:28] <YANP> i dont understand anything in linux
[01:28] <tapas> tetonca: computers are there for automating stuff, not doing stuff manually ;)
[01:28] <tetonca> tapas: 'egrep PATH .[a-z] *' after a 'cd ~'
[01:29] <suoko> I'd need support for a random "pause" of the system which happens quite often...
[01:29] <Narada> which gui package manager is preferred
[01:29] <dominussuus> YANP: you have to remember that Linux was written by geeks for geeks... it's only in the last few years that there has been an effort to make it available to the masses
[01:29] <Myrtti> suoko: pause or total freeze
[01:29] <suoko> myrtti: pause
[01:29] <dominussuus> YANP: whereas Microsoft has a 22-year advantage on us :P
[01:29] <tetonca> tapas: if you own the machine you can change the setup scripts globally in /etc/*
[01:29] <suoko> it happened with feisty and now with gutsy too...
[01:29] <daedra> What is the default listening port of vncserver
[01:30] <jetscreamer> YANP: the knowledge kicks in in a bit
[01:30] <System79> daedra: 5900
[01:30] <Shoopuf> YANP: Just try not to mess around with the Main Menu too much, it is so buggy it's insane. >_>
[01:30] <jetscreamer> just soak it in
[01:30] <daedra> System79: thankz
[01:30] <YANP> dominussuus: for being made by geeks for geeks they sure are stupid to not make it for everyone at the start =] 
[01:30] <jetscreamer> or not
[01:30] <jetscreamer> there's always vista
[01:30] <suoko> I don't know how to debug it
[01:30] <Bob_Dole> Vista is the new ME, IMO.
[01:30] <dominussuus> YANP: computing was very different in the early 90s
[01:31] <daedra> System7: Hmm - thats the right port but its not connecting :(
[01:31] <Bob_Dole> I miss the 90's :/
[01:31] <AdvoWork> hi there, im trying to set up a cron job, is this right(to run every 10 minutes?) */10 0-23 * * 0-6 php myfile.php
[01:31] <tapas> tetonca: well thanks. i was sure there must be a standard way for this.. seems noone knows it :(
[01:31] <psnel> can anyone help disble RAID (mdadm) and boot to existing partition (old partitions are ok)?
[01:31] <suoko> myrtti: pause
[01:31] <suoko> myrtti: pause
[01:31] <tapas> io suppose i could dig thorough X startup scripts, etc..
[01:31] <suoko> myrtti: pause
[01:31] <tapas> no fun though..
[01:31] <echosystm> how do you take a screenshot?
[01:31] <Myrtti> suoko: yes.
[01:31] <samaris> i need help with my new gateway mt3707
[01:32] <suoko> myrtti: I tried 386 and general kernel
[01:32] <dominussuus> YANP: you just worry about getting flash to work and I'll worry about getting NES up and running
[01:32] <samaris> hello !!!!    i need help with my new gateway mt3707
[01:32] <daedra> System79: "Connection initiated - error connecting to server"
[01:32] <suoko> myrtti: I tried disabling wireless drivers (intel) and video drivers (intel) using vesa with no success...
[01:32] <YANP> I got it work
[01:32] <psnel> someone plz help to disable post-feisty upgrade RAID (mdadm) , and boot into old partition (part. not broken) - using knoppinx 4 troubleshooting
[01:32] <Bob_Dole> Well.. I'm still waiting on the Ubuntu CD's... but try Prnt Scrn(some keyboards spell out the whole print screen)
[01:33] <YANP> still need to learn to much... =[
[01:33] <dominussuus> YANP: what error do you get when you try to run "nestra pacman.nes"?
[01:33] <System79> daedra: Then i dont know either ;p, tfor me its 5900 and 5600
[01:33] <YANP> dominussuus: Unable to open pacman.nes
[01:33] <tapas> tetonca: hmm, it seems i should just have read about bash_profile more closely. thanks for the tip
[01:33] <suoko> myrtti: it happens mainly with heavy apps such as SL or firefox...
[01:33] <Myrtti> "buy more ram"
[01:33] <dominussuus> YANP: where did you save pacman.nes?
[01:34] <suoko> myrtti: id doesn't happen while watching videos...
[01:34] <tetonca> tapas: I wasn't sure if .bash_profile is called or not, in KDE.  Welcome.
[01:34] <Shoopuf> YANP: Stop using that emulator, get GFCE NES Ultra from the repository
[01:34] <suoko> I have 512...
[01:34] <Nephelauxetic> How do I give cdrom access to a whole group of users without putting all those users in the "cdrom" group?
[01:34] <tapas> tetonca: will try now. it should at aleast according to documentation
[01:34] <Myrtti> suoko: sorry, can't help you more
[01:34] <daedra> arrgh
[01:34] <tetonca> tapas: it really ought to.  or .bashrc ought to.
[01:34] <samaris> hello
[01:34] <YANP> dominussuus: desktop
[01:34] <YANP> Shoopuf: I dont understand you.
[01:35] <YANP> Shoopuf: respository?
[01:35] <dominussuus> YANP: so you typed "nestra ~/Desktop/pacman.nes"?
[01:35] <Bob_Dole> .
[01:35] <YANP> dominussuus: that is a command?
[01:35] <Shoopuf> YANP: Go to the Applications menu and go to "Add/Remove" then type "NES" in the search bar, then Install GFCE NES Ultra :)
[01:35] <dominussuus> YANP: yessir
[01:35] <tapas> tetonca: confirmed.. works just fine :)
[01:35] <tetonca> tapas: haha.
[01:35] <YANP> <--Only knows how to play Guild Wars and get on Myspace.
[01:36] <Shoopuf> YANP: Then open GFCE NES Ultra after it installs, "Browse" to the .NES file and hit "Execute" Viola, you are playing Pacman.
[01:36] <YANP> Unable to open /home/christopher/Desktop/pacman.nes
[01:36] <suoko> It doesn't seem a RAM problem: the system pause but I can still use the mouse. Before the system comes back to like I can see the HD hardly spinning. However it just happened and I have only xchat open so it's not the RAM. Defenetily
[01:36] <dominussuus> YANP: try "nestra -v ~/Desktop/pacman.nes"?
[01:37] <Shoopuf> dominussuus: YANP is clearly uncomfortable with text commands, why not just suggest a NES emulator with an easy to use graphical interface?
[01:37] <psnel> someone plz help to disable post-feisty upgrade RAID (mdadm) , and boot into old partition (part. not broken) - using knoppinx 4 troubleshooting
[01:37] <YANP> dominussuus: says the same thing
[01:37] <YANP> Shoopuf: trying what you said
[01:37] <dominussuus> Shoopuf: because he can copy and paste text commands without having to understand them
[01:38] <Shoopuf> alrighty
[01:38] <dominussuus> Shoopuf: besides, I don't know a thing about nestra so I'm groping my way through this
[01:38] <YANP> dominussuus: I dont like terminal...because I cant do it on my own
[01:38] <Bob_Dole> I don't like terminal because I can't do it on my own. I still use it though.
[01:38] <dominussuus> YANP: I don't either, it's a crutch until you get the system stabilised
[01:39] <dominussuus> YANP: the idea is to use the command line to get you up and running then we can worry about familiarising you with the Desktop
[01:39] <YANP> Ok playing pacman on Ultra =] 
[01:39] <LordMetroid> ahh... euhm... okay, this will sound really stupid!
[01:39] <LordMetroid> But how do I compile something in linux?
[01:39] <LordMetroid> Never done that before!
[01:39] <dominussuus> YANP: well, 2/3 isn't quite so bad...
[01:39] <YANP> Shoopuf: I have no sound =\
[01:39] <LordMetroid> I mean of my own shit
[01:39] <psnel> how do i fix boot err (after feisty upgrade): "madm: no devices listed in conf file were found"; "Failure: failed to assemble all arrays" ?
[01:40] <Bob_Dole> YANP, do you hvae sound on other things :x
[01:40] <YANP> nvm
[01:40] <Shoopuf> YANP: Sound, good luck with that one, half my sound doesn't work either. xD
[01:40] <Shoopuf> Half my games sound works, the other half I get "OpenAL driver" errors
[01:40] <YANP> Shoopuf: what are controls?
[01:40] <dominussuus> !gcc | LordMetroid
[01:40] <ubotu> LordMetroid: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[01:40] <LordMetroid> it is my own code...
[01:40] <YANP> Shoopuf: I have to have sound =[
[01:40] <ilovejump> i've got a problem with Call of Duty 2 and wine my sound doesn't work can someone help me out?
[01:40] <Shoopuf> YANP: You can change controls through GFCE Graphic Interface. Click the "Input" tab and "Gamepad 1" to change the controls to your liking.
[01:41] <Bob_Dole> Ilove jump, perhaps #winehq for WINE problems?
[01:41] <YANP> what is input tab?
[01:41] <ilovejump> k
[01:41] <dominussuus> LordMetroid: then gcc sourceFile.c -o outputFile should do the trick
[01:41] <tetonca> LordMetroid, gcc myfile.c
[01:41] <LordMetroid> thank you
[01:41] <tetonca> LordMetroid, then './a.out'.
[01:42] <Shoopuf> YANP: Close the program, open it, and you'll see at the top of the screen in the GFCE Ultra window it says "Main" "Input" "Video" "Advanced" .. Click Input
[01:42] <Shoopuf> YANP: Sorry I can't help with sound I also have sound issues with almost every game I play give or take a few.
[01:42] <stuart_> ok i originally installed xubuntu, then installed ubuntu-desktop. would it be okay to remove xubuntu now and what package is it, xubuntu-desktop?
[01:42] <dominussuus> k - I'm going to get some brekky and rest...
[01:43] <YANP> the gamepad1 is just a little window that is orange..nothing there
[01:43] <LordMetroid> Okay, so it seems like I need to do something in order to compile with OpenGL... Where can I get the .h files?
[01:43] <tetonca> stuart_ those are dummy packages that depend on lots of others.  They're there just to simplify choosing a purposeful environment.
[01:43] <LordMetroid> ahh, install OpenGL-devel or something I suppose
[01:43] <psnel> anyone plz, cant boot! need to disable RAID. boot err (after feisty upgrade): "madm: no devices listed in conf file were found"; "Failure: failed to assemble all arrays" ? (i did not specify any arrays during upgrage)
[01:43] <YANP> cant even close it now
[01:43] <dominussuus> YANP: if you need help once you upgrade to 64-bit you can find my contact info on launchpad
[01:43] <ari_stress> !big-mem
[01:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about big-mem - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:43] <Nephelauxetic> How do I give cdrom access to a whole group of users without putting all those users in the "cdrom" group?
[01:43] <YANP> on launchpad?
[01:43] <ari_stress> !linux-686
[01:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linux-686 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:44] <Shoopuf> YANP: Hit the "X" in the upper-right corner of the pacman window? :P
[01:44] <YANP> dominussuus: lol i will need your help 24/7 as long as I am on linux lol
[01:44] <YANP> x doesnt work
[01:44] <YANP> nothing works on it
[01:44] <YANP> froze
[01:44] <Bob_Dole>  Linux was so easy for me.. Ubuntu was super easy.
[01:44] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: not so easy, as that's the group that's allowed to mount the cd
[01:44] <dominussuus> YANP: https://launchpad.net/~dominussuus
[01:45] <psnel> until you cant boot.. then you learn linux
[01:45] <stuart_> tetonca, so is it safe for me to unstainll xubuntu? cos i need some space now
[01:45] <Bob_Dole> Also I started with Damn Small Linux, 50 megabytes of awesome!
[01:45] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, yes I know. I think I'll write a script that adds the getent users to the cdrom group every night
[01:45] <YANP> dominussuus: ah ok thanks
[01:45] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: just write a script to add the users to the group, adduser will create cdrom membership be default anyhow
[01:45] <tetonca> stuart_, sure why not.  the package manager will resolve the dependencies.
[01:45] <psnel> ..  unless you started with damn small or something
[01:46] <YANP> dominussuus: ok well I am going to sleep while this downloads
[01:46] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, I won't call adduser by default :)
[01:46] <Bob_Dole> DSL wasn't all that easy.. emelFM and midnight commander @.x
[01:46] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: I mean, usually new users are created with 'adduser' - so with sensible adduser config, it's not an issue
[01:46] <rhoruns> hmmmm.... is it possible that repairing my Ubuntu installing with my disc might fix my sound???
[01:47] <psnel> linux == linux
[01:47] <stuart_> tetonca, so i'm taking a wild guess that it's called xubuntu-desktop
[01:47] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, our users are configured on a solaris Sun One LDAP db... that's the problem... there is not "sensible adduser config" xD
[01:47] <stuart_> Bob_Dole, what WM did DSL run on
[01:47] <Bob_Dole> Fluxbox.
[01:47] <tetonca> stuart_, in dselect you can 'i' to see.  Not sure in synaptic.  Look for dependencies.  Trace them out.  dselect warns you what it will uninstall (calls it 'remove').
[01:48] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: NIS or ldap?
[01:48] <psnel> prablems are usually not distro related, but with other GNU softwares..
[01:48] <stuart_> Bob_Dole, having a 50MB operating system sounds neat
[01:48] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, LDAP
[01:48] <psnel> how big is Pocket Linux
[01:48] <psnel> ?
[01:48] <[UPG] Pritchard> Hurray for a 124mb update!
[01:48] <[UPG] Pritchard> Sheesh.
[01:48] <Bob_Dole> DSL is great, runs fine on my pentium1, runs fine on everything except my pentium3, on which not much of anything runs good on..
[01:48] <tetonca> stuart_ I have DSL on a 1 GB USB key.
[01:48] <[UPG] Pritchard> Doing from 6.04 to 7.04 here O.o;;
[01:49] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: may be possible to add all users to that group, don't know with ldap
[01:49] <tetonca> Firmware Linux boots to a bash shell.
[01:49] <Nephelauxetic> it is possible but not in my hands. I'm not the root of the LDAP db
[01:50] <tetonca> (with a native uClib-based gcc available)
[01:50] <stuart_> after installing DSL, i could still add stuff to it with aptitude, right?
[01:50] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: maybe convince udev to set the perms on the cdrom device to 777
[01:50] <Bob_Dole> Yeah. I think so, I had it installed and installed more stuff after that before o.o
[01:51] <Dj-avu> dominussuus, can you help me http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30893/
[01:51] <tetonca> stuart_, you use the 'mydsl' repository.  There's a browser included.  No aptitude; that's a debianism.  DSL is Knoppix-based.
[01:51] <Pici> !offtopic
[01:51] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:51] <Dj-avu> tetonca, can you help me http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30893/
[01:51] <tetonca> Dj-avu I'll look.
[01:51] <simone> hi
[01:51] <Dj-avu> tetonca, thanks!
[01:52] <simone> how can I remove some settings from gconf?
[01:52] <stuart_> ooh, knoppix. haven't tried that before
[01:52] <simone> deleting a apps/someapp folder doesn't works
[01:52] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, I don't know how ... ?
[01:52] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: is there another group they all belong to ?
[01:53] <tetonca> Dj-avu, try '/etc/init.d/squid start' or similar.
[01:53] <echosystm> guys, cd burning
[01:53] <echosystm> whats good?
[01:53] <LordMetroid> Anyone know what packages I need to install in order to start compiling OpenGL code in Ubuntu GNU/Linux?
[01:53] <berent> i have ubuntu installed and am installing windows in free space. can anyone tell me why win-xp  doesn't install in an extended paritition
[01:54] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, yes there is
[01:54] <Dj-avu> squid running but after few second, terminated.
[01:55] <Dj-avu> Starting Squid HTTP proxy squid [ok] 
[01:55] <Dj-avu> ps x after few seconds, nothing squid pid shown.
[01:55] <echosystm> guys
[01:55] <echosystm> i gotta burn a cd, throw me a bone here
[01:55] <echosystm> !
[01:55] <patrick-> Hey, can someone tell me how I can fix my keyboard layout? i dont have any window manager installed..
[01:56] <liquiddoom> Dj-avu: Check /var/log/squid* if it exists. if not, /var/log/messages
[01:56] <tetonca> Dj-avu, maybe it doesn't do anything by default.  You may need to look in /etc/ for the configuration files to enable it to do something.  Or get /apache/ running /first/.  might need a host httpd daemon to be useful.
[01:56] <icenate001> hmmm i am going to try to install nvidia drivers
[01:56] <icenate001> will that let me play tremulous
[01:56] <Frogzoo> Nephelauxetic: may be as simple as changing "GROUP="cdrom" in /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules
[01:56] <Pici> Dj-avu: use ps ax not just ps x to list all proceses.
[01:57] <icenate001> ?
[01:57] <icenate001> since it practically restarts my computer everytime i reboot
[01:57] <blzb> Hey everyone, I know this is most likely a very stupid question, but I want to be 100% sure when doing anything that may harm my precious files. Okay, so I know that migrating raid arrays from one built-in raid controller in the motherboard to another is virtually impossible, but is migrating a JBOD array possible from one motherboard to another without any complications?
[01:57] <liquiddoom> nicenate001: Does tremulous not want to open right now?
[01:57] <m0u5e> anyone know a good program for audio editting / sound recording
[01:57] <Tama00> hi
[01:57] <Pici> blzb: You might want to ask that question in ##hardware
[01:57] <Tama00> i got a stupid question but ive lost image previews in nautlius
[01:57] <liquiddoom> m0u5e: audacity
[01:57] <Tama00> :(
[01:57] <icenate001> no...it just kinda looks about to boot then crashes
[01:57] <Tama00> iwant themback:(
[01:57] <blzb> oh okay, thanks
[01:57] <icenate001> and restarts ubuntu
[01:58] <m0u5e> liquiddoom: i've tried it, for some reason it didnt work too well with my feisty :(, ill try it again though thx
[01:58] <Frogzoo> Tama00: full disk?
[01:58] <liquiddoom> icenate001: Try this. open the terminal and run "tremulous >> tremlog"
[01:58] <liquiddoom> icenate001: When you come up again, check the "tremlog" file
[01:58] <liquiddoom> icenate001: It should spit errors into that, if it runs into any
[01:59] <Nephelauxetic> Frogzoo, I'll try that. thx!
[01:59] <Tama00> Frogzoo, very empty disk, although ubuntu is reading my disk size from my /boot mount for some reason
[01:59] <icenate001> k thanks i am a bit new lol..
[01:59] <A[D] minS^AwaY> !bcmxx
[01:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bcmxx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:59] <tetonca> m0u5e, audacity
[01:59] <Frogzoo> Tama00: in nautilus -> edit -> preferences -> previews
[01:59] <Tama00> Frogzoo, says insystem monitor i have 40mb free lol when really i got about 190+gig
[01:59] <A[D] minS^AwaY> !bcm44xx
[01:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bcm44xx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:59] <m0u5e> does alsa work with audacity?
[01:59] <A[D] minS^AwaY> thx
[01:59] <Tama00> Frogzoo, its all on local files only
[02:00] <Tama00> Frogzoo, hmm changing it to "always" works but
[02:00] <Frogzoo> Tama00: is the 190gig disk mounted?
[02:00] <Dj-avu> liquiddoom, in /var/log/messages show "Squid Parent: child process 7087 exited due to signal 6"
[02:00] <Tama00> Frogzoo, thats 190gig free, i have a software raid which i scrapped up of 200gig and its root so yes its mounted
[02:00] <tetonca> m0u5e, dunno. there's a web page describing audacity.
[02:00] <Dj-avu> exited due to signal 6 <<< always show this messages.
[02:01] <berent> i have ubuntu installed and am installing windows in free space. can anyone tell me why win-xp  doesn't install in an extended paritition
[02:02] <Tama00> Frogzoo, it works now although its viewing images from my samba shares aswell ill willing to sacrafice that
[02:02] <berent> i have ubuntu installed and am installing windows in free space. can anyone tell me why win-xp  doesn't install in an extended paritition
[02:03] <icenate001> liquid doom still a bit new haha... what commands?
[02:03] <Frogzoo> Tama00: maybe the files you want to preview are > 5meg
[02:04] <Tama00> Frogzoo, nar, its fixed now, it seams to only preview the files when i select that option to "always" instead of "local files only"
[02:04] <berent> REPOST :: i have ubuntu installed and am installing windows in free space. can anyone tell me why win-xp  doesn't install in an extended paritition
[02:04] <Tama00> i dunno why it doesnt think my home directory isnt a local file
[02:04] <Tama00> but oh well i can live with it
[02:04] <patrick-> Hey, can someone tell me how I can fix my keyboard layout? i dont have any window manager installed..
[02:04] <Frogzoo> Tama00: so it doesn't see the raid as local disk? how odd
[02:04] <tetonca> patrick: xloadkeys maybe
[02:05] <Dj-avu> tetonca, exited due to signal 6     <<<
[02:05] <Tama00> Frogzoo, i actually didi a bit of a ugly install.. cause i couldnt download the alternative cd to create the software raid during installation so i just installed it to a spare 20gig drive booted the live cd made the raid copied everything over and edited a few files
[02:05] <Dj-avu> i try squid.conf default but same problem to.
[02:05] <Tama00> yeah its cheap i know but man my software raid is good;)
[02:05] <tetonca> Dj-avu, I don't know squid.  The log probably had other error messages.  Did you install a http server also?
[02:06] <icenate001> tremulous still not working right...:(
[02:06] <tetonca> Dj-avu, maybe it doesn't do anything by default.  You may need to look in /etc/ for the configuration files to enable it to do something.  Or get /apache/ running /first/.  might need a host httpd daemon to be useful.
[02:06] <Dj-avu> no
[02:06] <Dj-avu> i am not install http server
[02:06] <Bob_Dole>    Tremulous is a great game. I love it,
[02:07] <liquiddoom> doom does too
[02:07] <tetonca> Dj-avu, what does squid /do/ for you?
[02:07] <Dj-avu> i need squid for my internet cafe.
[02:07] <kaushal> Hi
[02:07] <tetonca> Its a proxy.
[02:08] <tetonca> Does that mean it stands on the firewall and forwards http packets to a www browser?
[02:08] <kaushal> I am running Release:        6.06 20070702
[02:08] <FurryNemesis> icenate001, what's wring with it?
[02:08] <kaushal> I want to upgrade my FF to 2.0.0.5
[02:08] <kaushal> my present FF is 2.0.0.4
[02:08] <kaushal> FF > Firefox
[02:09] <Frogzoo> kaushal: so upgrade to feisty
[02:09] <kaushal> how do i do that

[02:09] <miguelanxo> Hi there
[02:10] <Frogzoo> berent: -> #windows maybe
[02:10] <tetonca> berent, reposting same question will not be rewarded with an answer.
[02:10] <miguelanxo> how do I set the interfaces I want for each of the network cards (2) I have? maybe a setting in /etc/network/interfaces, I suppose... no GUI in here
[02:10] <giany911> you guys know any apps like super karamba, eays to configure, not like gdesklets.
[02:10] <tetonca> Dj-avu, /join #squid or http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/ places to start asking. ;)
[02:10] <jetscreamer> man interfaces
[02:11] <berent> tetonca  : but i need answer for the same question.
[02:11] <Dj-avu> tetonca, ok thanks.
[02:11] <tetonca> berent, I sympathize. I do.  Don't know anything about it tho.
[02:12] <berent> tetonca  : repeating the same sympathy without an answer won't solve my problem.
[02:14] <Frogzoo> miguelanxo: /etc/iftab
[02:14] <miguelanxo> tnx!
[02:14] <giany911> you guys know any apps like super karamba, eays to configure, not like gdesklets.
[02:14] <gmustafa>  i m trying to connect using a USR modem ,, i keep getting Jul 23 08:07:18 hera pppd[6154] : sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0xa0000> <magic 0x986bf748> <pcomp> <accomp>] 
[02:15] <gmustafa> any idea?
[02:15] <Frogzoo> berent: but the question is OT - try #windows
[02:15] <liquiddoom> !screen
[02:15] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[02:15] <tetonca> gmustafa: if you can post a big giant snippet of the log in a paste-buffer type web site maybe it'll be more obvious.
[02:16] <Gnea> berent: windows has never installed on extended, it's a design flaw - it's required to install on a primary partition, usually the first one
[02:17] <ace_suares> !raid
[02:17] <ubotu> 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
[02:18] <berent> Gnea : ok. but let's say i have ubuntu on /dev/hda1 and have two logical paritions on extended partition /dev/hda2 as /dev/hda3 and /dev/hda4 out of which /dev/hda4 is ntfs. can't i install on /dev/hda4?
[02:18] <jetscreamer> extended partitions start at 5
[02:18] <jetscreamer> 1-4 are reserved for primaries
[02:19] <ace_suares> people, I have  a problem with raid on ubuntu dapper/server
[02:19] <berent> jetscreamer : are you a kid?
[02:19] <ace_suares> the thing is, it sees md0, md1 and md2, but md5, 6 7 and 8 are wrong
[02:20] <ace_suares> why are they wrong? well, md7 is mapped to md5 and md8 to md6
[02:20] <ace_suares> this seems to have to do with th device mapper (dm stuff).
[02:20] <berent> jetscreamer : i mean are you kidding - afaik it's not reserved it's just a limit
[02:20] <ace_suares> I can't figure this out an my prodcution server is offline because of it.
[02:21] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: why map virtual devices to virtual devices??
[02:21] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: more importantly - what changed ?
[02:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: I am baffled, too.
[02:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: if I stop all devices and them mdadm --assemble --scan, it maes all devices as should
[02:22] <berent> Gnea  : does it need the first primary partition only? if yes can i try swapping ubuntu into exended and ntfs to first primary?
[02:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: no dm devices.
[02:23] <ace_suares> !paste | ace_suares
[02:23] <Gnea> berent: yes, and that should work
[02:23] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30902/plain/
[02:23] <berent> Gnea : what if i set a boot flag to logical drive ? will it still complain?
[02:24] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: what is pasted, is what I get after boot.
[02:24] <ace_suares> so md8 = md6 and md7 = md5 (lookt at size)
[02:24] <Gnea> berent: as long as logical isn't ntfs or fat32, it won't matter
[02:24] <berent> Gnea : i mean make window beleive that is the first section!!!
[02:24] <Gnea> berent: no go
[02:25] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30903/plain/
[02:25] <ace_suares> here I pasted also how it *should* be
[02:25] <tezem> Can somebody tell me how to make a deb out of a source package -> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/0.6.5-0ubuntu7
[02:26] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: dm devices?
[02:26] <ace_suares> why the h*** are the dm devices created at bootup ? And why does it  "supporess" normal creation of the other two devices ?
[02:26] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: did you look at the pastebin ?
[02:26] <berent> Gnea :  Ok. can i do a raid?
[02:27] <ace_suares> df
[02:29] <berent> Gnea : I have space in the extended paritition which i need to bring to primary : but ext3 cannot be moved!!!
[02:29] <rhoruns_> OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!
[02:29] <rhoruns_> i got my alsamixer to come up!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
[02:31] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: any ideas ?

[02:37] <davidwinter> hi all
[02:38] <davidwinter> is there a program that monitors a computers temperature and can email me if it goes above a certain temp?
[02:39] <Solid> hi
[02:42] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: feisty?
[02:42] <ace_suares> ubuntu dapper server
[02:42] <ace_suares> Frogzoo:  ubuntu dapper server
[02:43] <inimesekene> hello, how can i add the key to this http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/dists/feisty/eyecandy-amd64/ repository?
[02:44] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: oh, is any of these the / partition?
[02:44] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: the / partition, as well as swap and /var are on md0, 1 and 2 and they operate normally, even after a reboot.
[02:44] <psilikon> So i am still new to linux and i kinda screwed up when trying to format my External USB IDE drive to fat32 and said the heck with it repartitioned it and made it ext3.  Anything wrong with an external drive being ext3?
[02:44] <gav616> how do you get ATi's fglrx 8.38.7, working on 2.6.20* kernel? is it possible?
[02:44] <ikonia> psilikon: its all down to what you want
[02:45] <ace_suares> 5 and 6 operatie normally too but then 7 and 8 get mapped to 5 and 6 and the real 7 and 8 are not made
[02:45] <liquiddoom> psilikon: No problem unless you want windows to read it
[02:45] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: you setup initrd to have the md driver, or whatever you have to do to boot raid?
[02:45] <ikonia> Frogzoo: the ubuntu initrd hs raid built in
[02:45] <ace_suares> Frogzoo:  it's a standard -server kernel and i didn't modify initrd
[02:45] <DjViper> davidwinter:
[02:45] <psilikon> ikonia: cool thanks that is what i figured... i just was wondering if it was physically bad for the drive... i would like to format it vfat but couldn't get mkdosfs to work for me
[02:45] <DjViper> davidwinter: LMSensors
[02:46] <psilikon> if I wanted to switch back would i have to re fdisk it and assign a filetype or could i just use mkfs?
[02:46] <davidwinter> thanks DjViper - will look into that
[02:46] <alesan> hi. we are developing a small (GPL!) kernel module for our product, and we want the best support for Ubuntu. Anyway we would need to anticipate the kernel upgrades so we can prepare a package for the new version.
[02:47] <ikonia> psilikon: you have to format the drive with a new file system
[02:47] <ikonia> psilikon: you would lose your data
[02:47] <alesan> who should I contact or how can I understand what it will be the next version of the updates?
[02:47] <psilikon> ikonia: right. but i would not have to partition it again
[02:47] <ikonia> alesan: contact cancaniol
[02:47] <ikonia> psilikon: a file system has nothing to do with partitions
[02:47] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: have you checked /var/log/messages for boot messages?
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> cancaiol? canonical ?
[02:47] <ikonia> thank you
[02:47] <ikonia> typo
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> lol
[02:47] <alesan> ikonia, where?
[02:48] <ikonia> canonical
[02:48] <Pici> alesan: canonical or contact #ubuntu-devel / #ubuntu-kernel
[02:48] <alesan> well what is, a IRC nickname or waht?
[02:48] <ikonia> alesan: I can see you've done %0 investigation on this
[02:48] <Pici> alesan: Canonical is the company that created Ubuntu
[02:48] <alesan> ikonia, I am starting now :)
[02:48] <JC_Denton_> !canonical
[02:48] <ubotu> Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[02:48] <IntuitiveNipple> alesan: If you develop the module for the mainline kernel, you wouldn't need to worry about individual distributions... check out the Linux Kernel Mailing List
[02:48] <psilikon> ikonia: i know :) i was getting confused tho.... why does fdisk ask for a filesystem type when u partition
[02:48] <ikonia> alesan: visit ubuntu.com
[02:48] <alesan> ok we already have contacts with the company etc etc
[02:49] <ikonia> alesan: yet you didn't know the name of it ?
[02:49] <alesan> we even met the founder of all this but this is a technical issue :) better be solved among developers I thing
[02:49] <alesan> think
[02:49] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: device-mapper: 4.4.0-ioctl (2005-01-12) initialised: dm-devel@redhat.com
[02:49] <alesan> ikonia, I am a developer, not the marketing guy come on
[02:49] <ikonia> alesan: no - its a business driven decision also
[02:49] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: this was in messages
[02:49] <ikonia> alesan: contact the company and work with them
[02:49] <shiva> hiiiii
[02:49] <alesan> ikonia, ok I got it.
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> psilikon: The value is used so that a foreign file-system doesn't accidentally try to alter the file-system contents in a partition by falsely recognising the data inside as in its own format
[02:50] <Frogzoo> alesan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[02:50] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: I think it's caused by lvm
[02:50] <alesan> Frogzoo, THANKS
[02:50] <ikonia> alesan: if your developing kernel modules you should be involved with lkml - not ubuntu. Ubuntu doesn't develop the kernel
[02:50] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: you have lvm on top of raid?
[02:51] <shiva> hiiiiiiiiii i m new user of ubuntu
[02:51] <daedra> hey i've got a problem with tightvnc
[02:51] <alesan> ikonia, what kernel version ubuntu decides to ship in a update is not under control of the lkml
[02:51] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: no, that's the whole point I am not using lvm as far as I know
[02:51] <cliffdover> hi, somebody knows when will be released a rc of ubuntu 7.10?
[02:51] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: dpkg -l lvm lvm2
[02:51] <ikonia> alesan: but your module compatability should be with the kernel, not the version ubuntu ships
[02:51] <ikonia> cliffdover: why ?
[02:51] <shiva> can any body help me in using this
[02:51] <Pici> cliffdover: 10/07
[02:51] <ikonia> shiva: help you with what ?
[02:52] <shiva> how to use it
[02:52] <alesan> ikonia, of course. but we would like to ship our binaries together with kernel updates
[02:52] <shiva> i m not getting
[02:52] <cliffdover> ohh
[02:52] <tas> can some1 help me? how do i turn an SH file into EXE?
[02:52] <ikonia> shiva: http:/www.ubuntu.com read the docs
[02:52] <alesan> so that our users won't have any glitch.
[02:52] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30906/
[02:52] <cliffdover> i have the tribe installed
[02:52] <ikonia> alesan: so if its compatible with the linux kernel, and open source - ubuntu will pick it up automatically
[02:52] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: lvm2 is installed but deinstalling it deinstall ubuntu-standard too
[02:52] <gav616> how do you get ATi's fglrx 8.38.7, working on 2.6.20* kernel? is it possible?
[02:52] <Catoptromancy> tas, .exe files are for windows
[02:53] <alesan> ikonia, well this means that some ubuntu mantainer has to catch u the work. we would like to contribute ourselves even
[02:53] <ikonia> gav616: join #ati and ask around
[02:53] <ikonia> alesan: is your driver going to be opensource?
[02:53] <Catoptromancy> tas, you can add   #!/bin/sh     to top line of sh file and set as executable, so it works similar to an exe file
[02:53] <alesan> ikonia, it is GPL.
[02:54] <alesan> as it is based on ALSA (it is a kind of "virtual" sound device
[02:54] <ikonia> alesan: so host it in your own repo, that way ubuntu/debian/redhat users can all get benfit from your development efforts
[02:54] <alesan> )
[02:54] <shiva> how to use yahoo messenger in it
[02:54] <ikonia> shiva: you need an app like gaim or pidgen as yahoo messanger isn't really supported on linux
[02:54] <Shoopuf> shiva: download pidgin 2 from www.getdeb.net ... !!
[02:54] <alesan> ikonia, all right except that we would like to ship binaries for our users. and we must syncronize the binaries with the kernel version distros are giving away as updates
[02:54] <shiva> thank u shoopuf
[02:55] <ikonia> alesan: no you don't thats the point I'm trying to make
[02:55] <Pici> alesan: The best method would be to contact #ubuntu-kernel and #ubuntu-motu .
[02:55] <ikonia> alesan: if your module works with $the_kernel it won't matter what versions the distros are shipping
[02:55] <alesan> Pici, yes sure, thank you.
[02:56] <desper> I have Debian 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 os and USR5631 56K Faxmodem ,i configured with the help of pppconfig but in log it says "Modem hangup" need help
[02:57] <ikonia> desper: this is ubuntu support, not debian
[02:57] <th-as> Hey, I installed Ubunut after I installed windows. Then I formatted C: and installed windows again. The booloader GRUB is gone. . . How do I get it back?? Anyone have any tips??
[02:57] <josh_new> hi.. would like to know if there is a archivmanager with drag n drop support for ubuntu?
[02:57] <ikonia> !grub >th-as
[02:57] <alesan> ikonia, let me understand, how do you want to synchronize the release of an updated kernel with a module that is loadable with the new version? I don't understand :(
[02:57] <lostMyMarbles> Is there a way to clean up my computer? I have installed so many programs via synaptic and uninstalled so many that I am sure there are tons of files left behind.
[02:58] <dyrne> th-as: in case you didnt get ubotu's message: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:58] <liquiddoom> lostMyMarbles: sudo apt-get autoremove and sudo apt-get autoclean
[02:58] <ikonia> alesan: its probably a bit off-topic so I won't push it. But if your module works with 2.6-generic then it won't matter what version of the kernel the hosts are using, as it will be compatible
[02:58] <liquiddoom> lostMyMarbles: Removes un-needed packages and clears the package cache
[02:58] <th-as> thnx ikonia:)
[02:59] <lostMyMarbles> Is there a prog to clean the home dir?
[03:00] <ikonia> lostMyMarbles: rm
[03:00] <Pici> lostMyMarbles: Nothing to clean it automatically.
[03:00] <liquiddoom> lostMyMarbles: Most of the home dir contains user-specific application files
[03:00] <alesan> ikonia, may I query you...? just for a clarification as you said this is not perfectly in topic
[03:00] <Shoopuf> lostMyMarbles: Check this out, a HOWTO on "cleaning up unnecessary junk files" http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140920
[03:00] <ikonia> alesan: yeah sure
[03:00] <liquiddoom> lostMyMarbles: Run the Disk Usage Analyzer to see where your hd space is being taken up
[03:01] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: dunno, puzzling
[03:01] <m1r> hi ubuntu
[03:01] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: really puzzling. I am going to try to put lvm to sleep for good and then see what happens.
[03:05] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: lvm startup script says it will detect md devices and then leave them alone
[03:05] <ace_suares> Frogzoo:
[03:05] <ace_suares> # By default, LVM2 will ignore devices used as components of
[03:05] <ace_suares>     # software RAID (md) devices by looking for md superblocks.
[03:06] <elpasi> Hi
[03:06] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: disabling the lvm rc script won't hurt anything if you're not using it
[03:07] <m1r> how can i disable user from accessing "filesystem" in nautilus and bound him to his "home" folder only ?
[03:07] <elpasi> I'm having trouble with the Alternate CD installer on my other computer.  It's detecting my hard drive and trying to partition, but it keeps telling me there was no root made.
[03:07] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: that's my plan too!
[03:08] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: maybe pastebin /etc/fstab while you're at it
[03:09] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: nothing there about lvm, just normal fstab...
[03:10] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: except you're mounting the raid devices
[03:10] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: off course
[03:11] <pawan> hi
[03:11] <pawan> how to repair wubi
[03:11] <ikonia> hi
[03:11] <ikonia> wubi ?
[03:11] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: like: /dev/md8 /var ext3 defaults etc etc
[03:12] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: /dev/md0      /mnt/raid     ext3    defaults    1 2
[03:12] <Pici> pawan: wubi is not an official way of installing Ubuntu.
[03:12] <ikonia> pawan: we don't support wubi - its not an ubuntu product
[03:12] <Pici> ikonia: nicely said ;)
[03:12] <ikonia> Pici: back at you ;)
[03:12] <m1r> how can i disable user from accessing "filesystem" in nautilus and bound him to his "home" folder only ?
[03:13] <ikonia> m1r: change permissions or chroot him
[03:13] <pawan> but it is ubuntu
[03:13] <ikonia> pawan: no its not
[03:13] <ikonia> pawan: its nothing to do with ubuntu
[03:13] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: i put exit 0 into lvm startup script but no change !
[03:13] <Pici> !wubi > pawan (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[03:13] <pawan> than what is it
[03:13] <ikonia> pawan: its a non-supported way of installing ubuntu
[03:13] <m1r> ikonia , that is far off my knowledge :/ i have been reading some but i dont understand yet :/
[03:13] <pawan> it has all the features of ubuntu
[03:14] <ikonia> m1r: read up on file systems permissions and chroot
[03:14] <ikonia> pawan: it does install ubuntu
[03:14] <ikonia> pawan: but the installer is nothing to do with ubuntu
[03:14] <vonderer> hi everyone
[03:14] <Drk_guy> Hi guys!
[03:14] <vonderer> have some kind of problem with mpd
[03:14] <Drk_guy> How can i extract the OO files from the Ubuntu disc
[03:14] <Drk_guy> ?
[03:15] <m1r> tnx ikonia, will go again thru description
[03:15] <ikonia> m1r: no problem
[03:15] <ikonia> Drk_guy: the OO files ?
[03:15] <orgasmatron> can i ask?????
[03:15] <pawan> on its support page it is referencing to freenode ubuntu irc channel
[03:15] <Pici> !ask | orgasmatron
[03:15] <ubotu> orgasmatron: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:15] <ikonia> orgasmatron: just ask
[03:15] <ikonia> pawan: then mail the website telling them its not the correct support place
[03:16] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: hmm... it seems mdadm makes /dev/md3 and /dev/md4 altough they are not specified in mdamd.conf!
[03:16] <c2c2rock-puptop> i would love to stay with ubuntu however if i cannot get x i have to decline been here since last night with no luck
[03:16] <LiveUSB> anyone know of a way to password protect grub on a usb stick? I'm booting persistant and all is well with that, but i wouldn't mind a little false protection. the only problem is there is no place to put the grub.conf at boot, only after the FS starts to decompress.
[03:16] <ikonia> c2c2rock-puptop: ok - thanks
[03:16] <siskel> newbie here- downloaded some fonts from dafont.com -what do i do with them now?
[03:16] <ikonia> LiveUSB: what are you talking about
[03:16] <orgasmatron> i have a laptop with 9000 igp. i downgraded to xorg 7.1 . after that is anyone with a totally working solution for having 3d through my ati??????????
[03:17] <ikonia> orgasmatron: why/how did you downgrade the Xorg version ?
[03:17] <Drk_guy> How can i extract the OO files from the Ubuntu disc?
[03:17] <eva[i] > orgasmatron: I sent an email to ATI :D
[03:17] <ikonia> Drk_guy: what do you mean the OO files ?
[03:17] <Drk_guy> OpenOffice
[03:17] <Pici> pawan: The website says that the correct place to ask wubi support questions is: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234
[03:17] <ikonia> Drk_guy: what files do you mean ?
[03:17] <c2c2rock-puptop> lol bye to ubuntu only because X does not work
[03:17] <ikonia> c2c2rock-puptop: bye
[03:17] <orgasmatron> ati-8.28.8 does not run with 7.2, and 8.34.8 does not support 9000IGP
[03:18] <ikonia> orgasmatron: how did you downgrade Xorg ?
[03:18] <Drk_guy> The files that have anything to do with OO, i mean, the proggie files
[03:18] <eva[i] > can I ask you to do the same. it's really about filling up an online form.. it's there where you download the driver on the ati.amd.com site
[03:18] <ikonia> Drk_guy: you don't - they aren't available like that on the CD
[03:18] <eva[i] > maybe with more emails they will get their act together
[03:18] <orgasmatron> ikonia, through edgy.
[03:18] <ikonia> Drk_guy: you install them
[03:18] <LiveUSB> Need to put a password for grub on a stick.. /etc/ doesn't exists at time of bootup, only after the squashfs is decompressing (Ubuntu Live CD on a USB drive w/GRUB instead of syslinux)
[03:18] <orgasmatron> i have 7.04 feisty
[03:18] <Drk_guy> ikonia: I need them for other distro
[03:18] <ikonia> LiveUSB: what are you talking about
[03:18] <ikonia> Drk_guy: you can't swap them around like that
[03:19] <ikonia> LiveUSB: the grub config lives in /boot/grub
[03:19] <Pici> Drk_guy: packages.ubuntu.com should be enough for you.
[03:19] <Drk_guy> ikonia: Why can't i do that?
[03:19] <ikonia> Drk_guy: because it doesn't work like that
[03:19] <LiveUSB> ikonia I know, however, i can't figgure out how to get grub to parse the hashed password i've got for it
[03:19] <Computa_mike> got a dimension c521 running feisty - the ati card here supports 2 monitors, but i can't get multi head working under ubuntu - followed the various guides - any ideas how to make this work?
[03:20] <BenLinkr> Computa_mike: Did you try bigdesktop?
[03:20] <Drk_guy> Pici: Puppylinux also has pup-get with OO, i just want the already dl'ed files from the CD
[03:20] <ikonia> LiveUSB: there are some good docs ont he wiki
[03:20] <Computa_mike> bigdesktop?  i thought that was for nvidia?
[03:20] <ikonia> Drk_guy: puppy is not ubuntu - they are not compatible
[03:20] <Computa_mike> I got ATI -
[03:20] <Drk_guy> Sh1t
[03:20] <Drk_guy> ATI sucks!!!
[03:20] <BenLinkr> Computa_mike: Teinview is for nvidia, bigdesktop is for ATI. (and I am for food.)
[03:20] <orgasmatron> question
[03:20] <BenLinkr> Twinview*
[03:20] <Drk_guy> Stick to Nvidia men
[03:20] <Computa_mike> right - i shall give that a shot
[03:20] <ikonia> Drk_guy: there is no need for bad language
[03:20] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: /dev/md3 might exist - but no raid be attached
[03:21] <orgasmatron> ubuntu 6.10 supports laptops of HP and hotkeys well enough??? any experience???
[03:21] <ikonia> orgasmatron: only a little, you need to set up "function" scripts and assign them through xorg.conf
[03:21] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: it shoudl creat md5 - md8 but it creates md3 - md6
[03:21] <Drk_guy> !ohmy | Drk_Guy
[03:21] <eva[i] > where can I read on how to get a daemon to start up at boot?
[03:21] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: and then it makes md7 and md8 dm devices
[03:21] <Drk_guy> Are you happy ikonia???
[03:21] <ikonia> !upstart >eva[i] 
[03:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo:  so now I changed mdadm.conf and fstab to honour it's way of creating and mounting devices
[03:22] <ikonia> Drk_guy: not really, that was pointless if you already knew your not meant to swear. Just don't swear instead
[03:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: I'll reboot and see what happens
[03:22] <Drk_guy> Ok ikonia....
[03:22] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: it looks like it aint listening to mdadm.conf
[03:22] <pawan> no irc channel for wubi
[03:22] <ikonia> pawan: mail them
[03:22] <pawan> menulst change error
[03:22] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: how strange
[03:23] <ikonia> pawan: we DON'T support it
[03:23] <aricz> Hi, how do I kill a process? I have the pid..
[03:23] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: indeed, indeed
[03:23] <ikonia> aricz: man kill
[03:23] <Pici> pawan: Not only do we not support it, but none of us know about it so we can't support you. I've told you where to ask questions.  Sorry.
[03:23] <orgasmatron> i 've installed xorg-fglrx-driver-7.1-8.28.8 , how can i change the configuration to this driver???? any ideas??? i still get Mesa staff...
[03:23] <LiveUSB> ikonia I know.. I'm beyond frustrtated though at the amount of the same method being used. CAn't find someone doing it the way I need it done..  (I guess when all is said and done.. we can add one more wiki entry to the pile though. I'm keeping track of what I'm doing)
[03:23] <triden1> aricz: I do the lame weenie way of killing X programs by running xkill.
[03:24] <ikonia> orgasmatron: dpkg-reconfiger xserver-xorg
[03:24] <cr1st1> hello
[03:24] <triden1> orgasmatron: sudo aticonfig (arguements to follow here, I don't know where to find them.)
[03:24] <triden1> Maybe try just running that?
[03:25] <orgasmatron> triden1, no work of that....

[03:28] <daedra> hey anyone recommend a bit torrent daemon?
[03:28] <liquiddoom> daedra: for a tracker?
[03:28] <daedra> liquiddoom: no a client (downloader)
[03:28] <rdz> anyone here is using gtkpod?

[03:29] <orgasmatron> ok for the reconfiguration..... reboot or reset the xserver???
[03:29] <daedra> riiiight...
[03:29] <daedra> no help then
[03:29] <dyrne> daedra: deluge or ktorrent but honestly i use rtorrent for cli and utorrent with wine are the best imo
[03:29] <ticnailer69> so my LAN should be running at about 50ms and sometimesit does but sometimes when I ping the network I get 1500-1500 which is really slow
[03:29] <daedra> dyrne: note that I said daemon
[03:29] <ticnailer69> is ther anything I can do?
[03:29] <daedra> thats the only important thing
[03:29] <dyrne> daedra: nm then ;p
[03:30] <orgasmatron> seeya
[03:30] <triden1> daedra: http://www.murmeldjur.se/btpd/
[03:30] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: now it works perfectly
[03:30] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: thanks for thinking together with me.
[03:30] <Zynx> Hi, i am new to Linux and i just installed Ubuntu. I want to install my GFX driver and i go to System -> Administration -> Restricted Devices Manager and enable nvidia. But after my system reboots i get a error and i cant start X. Is this normal? Is there something i nedd to install before i can install my drivers from the menu?
[03:30] <rausb0> ticnailer69: intel e1000 card?
[03:31] <okkk> haha
[03:31] <triden1> Zynx: Usually when you enable it there it downloaded some stuff, did it do that to you?
[03:31] <ticnailer69> uhhh
[03:31] <Zynx> yes
[03:31] <ticnailer69> is that a messed up card orsomething that would explain the problem???
[03:32] <ticnailer69> I'm not sure at the moment
[03:32] <triden1> Zynx: What card do you have?
[03:32] <triden1> Zynx: Besides it being an nvidia.
[03:32] <Zynx> Asus EN8800 GTX
[03:33] <ticnailer69> rausb0: so you dont think its the network but the card in my machine?
[03:33] <triden1> Zynx: That's still helpful, but just so you know, that's your computer model, not your graphics card. :P
[03:34] <rausb0> ticnailer69: recent e1000 cards have interrupt problems. see http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_e1000:_Open_issue_with_latency
[03:34] <triden1> Whoops.
[03:34] <Zynx> -_-
[03:34] <mrsno> Zynx check dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[03:34] <triden1> Zynx: Sorry, I screwed that up.
[03:34] <mrsno> does it say nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ?
[03:34] <triden1> >.>
[03:34] <ticnailer69> does anyone know the command for checking out with hw I have?
[03:34] <daedra> thanks triden1
[03:34] <Frogzoo> ace_suares: oh, good to get a result
[03:34] <predaeus> Zynx, I am not sure but I think you needed newer drivers for the 8800 than Feisty provides. You might have to install drivers by hand.
[03:34] <Pici> ticnailer69: sudo lshw
[03:34] <triden1> Zynx: I didn't have coffee today, Asus really looks like a computer company.
[03:34] <mrsno> the 8800 is quite new so if you do not have the nvidia-glx-new then you will need to get the latest nvidia drivers (envy is useful for this) but remove nvidia-glx first
[03:35] <anandanbu> How do i enable the write permission for the USB pen drive with FAT32 filesystem in Ubuntu 7.04
[03:35] <Zynx> nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-common
[03:35] <mrsno> Zynx ok try aptitude purge nvidia-glx && aptitude install nvidia-glx-new
[03:35] <mrsno> err whooops
[03:36] <mrsno> Zynx ok try sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx && sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-new
[03:36] <mrsno> then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart to restart X, if this fails then try the envy tool but remove nvidia-glx-new first :)
[03:36] <icenate001> ok still cant get tremulous to work i am a new user to linux  i dont know any of the functions for the terminal and can barely map the drive haha... though i do know how to partition a drive i am not computer dumb... everytime i boot tremulous the game it restarts ubuntu may be its do to the graphics i dont know i just installed the newest ubuntu... geforce fx 5600 gt i know it sux but it should run tremulous idk can someone 
[03:37] <Zynx> mrsno: gonna try :) BRB
[03:37] <_Lucretia_> is there a way to stop the screensaver kicking in when playing a movie through totem/xine/mplayer?
[03:37] <mrsno> Zynx don't worry if it doesn't work with nvidia-glx-new , the system will still work fine in terminal :)
[03:37] <dyrne> icenate001: you have installed nvidia drivers? nvidia-glx package?
[03:38] <triden1> _Lucretia_:  known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/97251
[03:38] <ticnailer69> I dont think that its the card just b/c the network will be fast for a week and then be dead slow the other half of the time
[03:38] <Ranpha1> Is it possible to label disk with encryption already on it?
[03:38] <_Lucretia_> triden1: thanks
[03:38] <f0rk3d> anyone tried out compiz fusion on feisty fawn, i keep getting some error when running compiz --replace
[03:38] <icenate001> Dyrne: never really learned how to install those haha...barely know how to use terminal
[03:38] <eva[i] > would someone be kind enough to ssh to my machine to check if I set up sshd+router correctly? send me a query if you are happy to and I'll give you the address
[03:39] <Zynx> mrsno: "Could not start the X Server"
[03:39] <Zynx> Asks me if i want the result so i can find the problem...
[03:39] <ticnailer69> I checked and i dont have to e1000
[03:39] <mrsno> Zynx you can check the log file in /var/log/Xorg.0.log to confirm why its not starting, but as someone said above your card is very new
[03:40] <mrsno> so most likely you need the newer-again drivers
[03:40] <mrsno> Zynx so start with sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx-new
[03:40] <sniper> high !
[03:40] <f0rk3d> erm
[03:40] <mrsno> Zynx then at the terminal: wget http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb
[03:41] <sniper> salu !
[03:41] <mrsno> Zynx then sudo dpkg -i envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb
[03:41] <predaeus> icenate001, run restricted-manager and verify that the restricted drivers are in use
[03:41] <mrsno> Zynx this may complain, so if it does then sudo apt-get install -f to stop it complaining, then dpkg -i again
[03:42] <f0rk3d> ok i'm totally confused who's talking to who ;|
[03:42] <mrsno> Zynx then sudo envy -t and follow the screen that comes up :)
[03:42] <Zynx> it did complain ;)
[03:42] <thebigham> Why is the file browser SO SLOW? Is there anything i could do to make it faster?
[03:42] <michas> hi, the edgy-installer broke an NTFS-Partition while resizing it. is there any chance to recover some files, nevertheless?
[03:42] <icenate001> Predaeus: omg thank you
[03:42] <Zynx> mrsno: You lost me :)
[03:42] <_david> Meow
[03:43] <mrsno> Zynx sorry, where did i loose you ? :-)
[03:43] <f0rk3d> Zynx hello
[03:43] <anandanbu> How do i enable the read/write permission for the USB pen drive with FAT32 filesystem in Ubuntu 7.04
[03:43] <Zynx> Do i only have to write sudo apt-get install -f ?
[03:43] <mrsno> Zynx correct
[03:43] <triden1> anandanbu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:44] <_david> I just plugged my USB drive in and it worked :P
[03:44] <Zynx> 2 sec
[03:44] <mrsno> take your time
[03:44] <Zynx> need to log is as root :)
[03:44] <Zynx> log in*
[03:44] <mrsno> Zynx use sudo apt-get install -f
[03:45] <anandanbu> triden1: but i am able to read from it but not able to copy anything to it
[03:45] <Shoopuf> When I type "sudo modprobe snd-cmi8330" it says "No such device" but when I type "sudo modprobe snd-cmipci" it doesn't say anything at all it just goes to another line, does that mean i have snd-cmipci?
[03:46] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: http://www.suares.an/trouble-with-lvm-and-mdadm
[03:46] <thebigham> Why is the file browser SO SLOW? Is there anything i could do to make it faster?
[03:46] <mrsno> Shoopuf if it says nothing then it has loaded, you can verify this with "lsmod"
[03:46] <Zynx> The dpkg -i command didnt really do anything execpt some text about how i use the command
[03:46] <ace_suares> Frogzoo: bye!
[03:46] <JohnsonsWhatever> SPANK! Doit-doit-doit-doit! Let's get to it, spank. Wow, love the 90's song!
[03:46] <Shoopuf> mrsno: i love you, thank you
[03:46] <mrsno> Zynx after doing sudo apt-get install -f , do sudo dpkg -i envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb
[03:46] <_david> thebigham, which filebrowser? Nautilus is super-fast here
[03:46] <mrsno> Shoopuf <3 :-)
[03:47] <thebigham> i believe that is the one i have
[03:47] <thebigham> but when i click on a folder it takes 2 sec to load
[03:47] <_david> is the folder full of images?
[03:47] <Zynx> mrsno: No such file or directory
[03:47] <mrsno> Zynx you did wget the deb file?
[03:48] <Zynx> gonna try again... i logged on as root to be able to do dpkg -i
[03:48] <Se7en> lololololololol
[03:48] <Shoopuf> Do I need to restart my computer or something after adding something to the /etc/modules file
[03:48] <mrsno> Zynx ubuntu doesn't use root by default, so if you su'd or set a root password this can complicate things :-)
[03:48] <mrsno> but fear not , you can wget the file again as root and install it

[03:49] <vlt> Hello. I wanted to watch a dvd with xine and libdvdcss2 but got "libdvdread: Error cracking CSS key ...". So I went to a Windows machine and downloaded the program "DVD-Decrypter" which had no problems showing the content. What do I need on my Feisty install addidionally to watch this DVD?
[03:49] <genii> Shoopuf: Adding it there just means next time you boot it gets loaded. But you don't normally need to reboot to load whatever that driver is manually
[03:49] <Pici> !dvd | vlt
[03:49] <ubotu> vlt: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:50] <Zynx> mrsno: it dosent seem to want to download the file ;)
[03:50] <Zynx> Error 404
[03:50] <mrsno> Zynx the command is wget http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb
[03:50] <mrsno> the file is definately there (for me) :)
[03:50] <Shoopuf> genii: so if i wanted to load the driver without restarting i would do what? the driver name is snd-cmipci
[03:50] <_david> Where can I find larger versions of the keyboard layouts from keyboard preferences?
[03:51] <seanh> I've been finding myself unable to unmount a usb thumb drive on fesity because it says "an application is using the device". Doesn't happen all the time, but often enough. Is there a known bug?
[03:51] <Zynx> Got it :)
[03:51] <maleses> (sorry for my English) Hello, i'm interested in use sonata, this is a client for mpd (Music Player Daemon) and I do not achieve that I work, how I can configure it??
[03:51] <mrsno> Zynx great :) let me know if you get stuck
[03:51] <Pici> maleses: What is your native language?
[03:51] <genii> Shoopuf: Then you would do: sudo modprobe snd-cmipci
[03:52] <Zynx> mrsno: I did ;) it need alot of files

[03:53] <Chip> how do you get beryl to run on system start?
[03:53] <maleses> thanks, gracias
[03:53] <Shoopuf> When I "test" a sound in the Sound Preferences with "Auto Detect" on it crashes Sound Preferences and closes the window. :(
[03:53] <mrsno> Zynx that is correct :-)
[03:54] <mrsno> Zynx the reason for using envy, is the drivers in feisty are not quite new enough for your card
[03:54] <mrsno> Zynx so using envy, it will automatically download, setup and create the drivers from nvidia.com for you
[03:54] <_david> Chip, put the line to start beryl/compiz inside System > Preferences > Sessions > Startup Programs > Add
[03:54] <Chip> _david thx
[03:55] <Zynx> mrsno: Sounds like a good plan :) Got any magic commands? :D
[03:55] <mrsno> Zynx it sounds like envy is already doing its thing :-)
[03:55] <Chip> _david what is the line to start beryl?
[03:56] <Zynx> mrsno: It didnt really do anything :o/
[03:56] <_david> Chip, depends if you're using beryl or compiz :P
[03:56] <Chip> _david beryl
[03:56] <_david> Haven't used in a while :P
[03:56] <mrsno> Zynx tell me what you just ran?
[03:56] <_david> try google, sorry: P
[03:56] <Chip> ok thx anyway
[03:57] <Zynx> mrsno: dpkg -i envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb :)
[03:57] <mrsno> Zynx ok so it install :-) now you need to run sudo envy -t
[03:57] <mrsno> to start the actual application :p
[03:57] <anandanbu> how do i enable the write permission for the USB pen drive with fat32 in Ubuntu 7.04
[03:58] <jinx_xnij> Ive got a bunch of music on a windows machine that is shared on my network and i want my linux machine to be able to play them.  I have tried in xmms, audacious, and another program, and they all have problems playing the files.  I can play them fine when they are local.
[03:58] <Zynx> It still gives me alot of errors
[03:59] <alesan> hi where can I load the hyperref-latex package?
[03:59] <ikonia> alesan: from the ubuntu repo
[03:59] <ikonia> alesan: I thought you said you where a developer ?
[03:59] <Zynx> mrsno: It still seems like i have to install some files before i can use the command dpkg -i "name
[03:59] <alesan> ikonia, ok what is the name
[03:59] <ikonia> alesan: search the repo
[03:59] <alesan> ikonia, I've never used apt-based distros until few months ago'
[03:59] <pi3> what torrent client from command line do you recommend?
[03:59] <octocore> i'm  having trouble with my initial ubuntu setup. none of my drivers are showing up, so my screen resolution is low, and i can't connect to the internet. can anyone help me out?
[04:00] <vlt> Pici: Thak you. I read the link you posted but there seem to be no more steps described than I already did: Installing "libdvdread3" and "libdvdcss2". The windows tool said the encryption used on the DVD was "CSS/CPPM". Which tool do I need to read this DVD?
[04:00] <mrsno> Zynx can you please pastebin the text that you are getting? im not sure which point you are at
[04:00] <Shoopuf> The module-assistant failed to build package alsa-source but the HOWTO doesn't say what to do. I can either VIEW, CONTINUE, or STOP :(
[04:00] <mrsno> http://albertomilone.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Envy-InstructionsForUbuntu lists the usage
[04:00] <ikonia> alesan: and in a few months you've not learnt how to search the repo's ?

[04:00] <Zynx> mrsno: I only got a terminal interface :S
[04:01] <mrsno> Zynx then type what it says :)
[04:01] <GLTrancer> why did they have to make such a goofy sounding name?
[04:01] <alesan> ikonia, of course I have searched the thing but it seems there is no such package there.
[04:01] <Pici> !ubuntu | GLTrancer
[04:01] <Zynx> mrsno: i got a wall of text :|
[04:01] <ubotu> GLTrancer: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[04:01] <samaris> hello
[04:01] <GLTrancer> i know what it is :>
[04:01] <GLTrancer> my next lfc will be called "babala"
[04:01] <mrsno> Zynx what exactly did you type to get the text ?
[04:01] <Pici> GLTrancer: er, I thought the factoid had more information in it.
[04:02] <GLTrancer> i know its some african word for unity or something
[04:02] <Zynx> mrsno: It still seems like i have to install some files before i can use the command dpkg -i "nameoffile"
[04:02] <samaris> i have problem with my geteway3707 i cant hear any sound
[04:02] <riaal> How well is Ubuntu working on the newest Apple Ibook 12"?
[04:02] <Pici> GLTrancer: Exactly. And seeing how the founder of Canoncial (ubuntu's parent company) is from South Africa, this makes sense.
[04:02] <bad_boy> hi all
[04:02] <ikonia> riaal: its a bit of a fighter to insall
[04:02] <mrsno> Zynx lets start again ok? :)
[04:02] <bad_boy> i just downloaded ubuntu.
[04:02] <bad_boy> i want to burn it on cd
[04:03] <Falstius> I'm playing with gutsy in a virtual machine, is there a service for ubuntu clients to fix the clock of a VM as there is for windows clients?
[04:03] <mrsno> Zynx at the terminal type the following. sudo apt-get install -f
[04:03] <riaal> ikonia, is that so? =( Is the wifi and stuff soported? Is it possible to get everything to work?
[04:03] <GLTrancer> i guess its fun to be the first person to make a non-english word be a popular technical termin
[04:03] <bad_boy> should i depack(unzip) or no???
[04:03] <ikonia> riaal: looksl ike it
[04:03] <octocore> i'm running $lspci and none of my drivers except for "pci bridge" and "modem" are being found..
[04:03] <ikonia> bad_boy: no  burn the iso
[04:03] <bad_boy> ok
[04:03] <bad_boy> tnx
[04:03] <ikonia> octocore: it lists hardware not drivers
[04:03] <Zynx> Downloading stuff :)
[04:03] <riaal> ikonia, okey, cheers
[04:03] <bad_boy> what kind i should burn, boot or image????
[04:04] <_david> Falstius, if it's VMWare, I think it has RPMs and DEBs for the guest OS to do that
[04:04] <ikonia> just burn the image
[04:04] <samaris> i have problem with my geteway3707 i cant hear any sound
[04:04] <GLTrancer> ok cheers :D
[04:04] <bad_boy> ok
[04:04] <vonderer> does anyone here use mpd+mpdscribble?
[04:04] <mrsno> Zynx so when that finishes, type sudo dpkg -i envy_0.9.6-0ubuntu2_all.deb
[04:04] <octocore> ikonia: okay, well everything is showing up as "intel corporation unknown device"
[04:04] <Pici> octocore: lsmod will show all the modules you are running.
[04:04] <ikonia> octocore: is it a reasonable new board ?
[04:04] <Zynx> mrsno: Working :)
[04:04] <octocore> ikonia: computer is brand new.
[04:04] <mrsno> Zynx great, now type sudo envy -t
[04:04] <mrsno> Zynx this will start the envy program, from there you can clean the nvidia drivers (remove) and then install the latest ones automatically
[04:05] <ikonia> octocore: ok, that just means there are no pciids for your hardware yet
[04:05] <spy80us> system architecture depends on processor or OS?
[04:05] <Zynx> mrsno: You are my hero :)
[04:05] <liquiddoom> processor.
[04:05] <Zynx> mrsno: Thanks alot for your time. Really appriciate it :D
[04:05] <spy80us> ok thanks
[04:05] <octocore> ikonia: :/ do i just need to wait for them then?
[04:05] <mrsno> Zynx my welcome :-)
[04:05] <ikonia> octocore: it doesn't matter, its not a bad thing
[04:05] <mrsno> err your welcome even ;] 
[04:06] <octocore> ikonia: what is a pciid
[04:06] <jinx_xnij> id of a pci device
[04:07] <ikonia> just an identifier that maps a hardware address to an english desciption
[04:07] <jinx_xnij> a number thats assigned to it
[04:07] <spy80us> when i use the SHMconfig=off to disable touchpad while typing.. the delay to enable is too long.. any help?
[04:07] <anandanbu> How do i change the permissions for my USB pen drive to enable the write support
[04:08] <octocore> ikonia: well ty for the help.
[04:08] <octocore> ikonia: there isnt a way to maunally enter pciid's, or burn them to a disk and install is there?
[04:08] <ikonia> why do you want them ?
[04:09] <ikonia> what does it matteR ?
[04:09] <vonderer> can anyone here help me with mpdscribble, please?
[04:09] <_david> vonderer, whats up?
[04:09] <octocore> ikonia: because ubuntu isnt reading my video card or ethernet card.
[04:09] <octocore> so my max resolution is 800x600 and i cant connect to the internet
[04:09] <ikonia> octocore: pci-id's have nothing to do with that
[04:09] <vonderer> _david: when I install mpdscribble (aptitude install mpdscribble), I get this message: Musicscribble system service not installed
[04:09] <ikonia> octocore: as I said they just map hardware to an english description
[04:10] <_david> vonderer, hmm, I installed mpd + mpdscribble on my RHEL server, so I dont really know :/
[04:10] <octocore> ikonia: oh, well do you know what my problem might be then?
[04:10] <_david> have you tried apt-getting for musicscribble?
[04:10] <ticnailer69> dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[04:10] <ikonia> octocore: yes, your video card drivers are probably not the right ones, and your xorg setup is not cnofigured
[04:10] <bad_boy> lol dudes i'm so exited, i'll instal ubuntu in couple of hours:D
[04:10] <Zynx> A easy question :) With the new drivers i am not able to change my resolution to more than 1024x768. Where can i change it? :D
[04:10] <ticnailer69> and I enter it into the teminal and nothing happens
[04:11] <vlt> Hobbsee: Hmm ... I don't get it. I checked the required packages listed on your link (libdvdread3, libdvdcss2, libxine1-ffmpeg). All of these are installed and xine tells me that it's using it ("libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access") But then "libdvdread: Error cracking CSS key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_02_1.VOB (0x00013fa6)!!". What did I miss reading your links?
[04:11] <ticnailer69> can anyone tell me what this means?
[04:11] <Hobbsee> vlt: not sure.  it should be working
[04:11] <octocore> ikonia: how may i go about fixing these things?
[04:12] <ikonia> octocore: what video card do you have
[04:13] <Zynx> mrsno: A easy question :) With the new drivers i am not able to change my resolution to more than 1024x768. Where can i change it? :D
[04:13] <octocore> ikonia: it's just the intel integrated one.
[04:13] <ikonia> octocore: ok, so try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and answer the questions on screen
[04:13] <mrsno> Zynx you can either edit the xorg.conf (can be tricky first time) or alternatively, in the gui, open a terminal and run sudo nvidia-settings
[04:14] <Zynx> thanks again :)
[04:14] <mrsno> np :)
[04:14] <samaris> i have problem with my geteway3707 i cant hear any sound
[04:14] <octocore> ikonia: ok i'll try it and come back. ty.
[04:14] <_imran_> if you buy a motherboard, do you have to buy cables/wires to connect it to your pc?
[04:14] <ticnailer69> ok
[04:14] <samaris> some one can help me?
[04:15] <ticnailer69> going to bed:)
[04:15] <ticnailer69> pz
[04:15] <mrsno> _imran_ your case comes with screws to screw it into the case, its not for the faint of heart really
[04:15] <vlt> Hobbsee: What does "CSS/CPPM" mean? That is what the windows tool said about the used encryption/protection mode.
[04:16] <Savage-{> Is there a fix for the Flash 9 images overlapping objects on the web page?
[04:16] <_imran_> mrsno, i was just wandering, because i am busy looking for parts to buid my own pc
[04:16] <extern> I have 2 folders full of pictures. Is there any utility to check which files are exactly the same? The names of the same pictures differ in those two folders
[04:17] <psnel> Why does renaming /etc/rcX.d/S*.mdadm* to /etc/rcX.d/K*.mdadm* NOT prevent mdadm from trying to set up arrays and failing boot ?? (also removed script from /etc/cron.d)
[04:18] <psnel> How do I prevent mdadm form setting up array at boot?
[04:18] <ikonia> psnel: destory the array
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: The mb comes with cables to connect the drives, the power supply that comes with the case has wires that plug into the mb you dont need to order cables by themselves
[04:19] <spy80us> any1 know how to view streaming video embedded in firefox
[04:19] <humbolto> how can I make startx not start xterm with it but something else?
[04:19] <dyrne> spy80us: i prefer mplayer package i believe its called mozilla-mplayer
[04:19] <_imran_> thanks Jack_Sparrow , but do you need to buy any seperate plugs/wires when you build a pc?
[04:19] <psnel> ikonia: how? I cant boot (this is knoppix)   -  (i still have working partitions i want to boot to)
[04:20] <ikonia> psnel: sorry, this is ubuntu support, not knoppix support
[04:20] <spy80us> dyrne: i have that but im unable to view.. can u try nba.com and any1 of the videos pls
[04:20] <psnel> ikonia: i know... i'm using koppix to try fix my feisty
[04:20] <abhi> what is best resolution for ubuntu?
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: no
[04:20] <ikonia> psnel: just us mdadm to destroy the array
[04:20] <dyrne> spy80us: someone else here will have to. im not on an linux box atm. (work)
[04:21] <acecase> hello
[04:21] <_imran_> what about for harddrives?
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: the mb should have the ribbon data cables, the power supply has the power cables
[04:22] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, ok cool
[04:22] <pawan> hi
[04:22] <pawan> is wubi and ubuntu not the same
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: SInce you are new at this I would suggest a bare bones system.. they are cheap, tested usually assembled
[04:22] <Dante123> hi all....looking to buy a ADSL Modem/Wireless router in one unit. Currently interested in the 3Com OfficeConnect ADSL Wireless 54 Mbps 11g Firewall Router - Wireless router + 4-port switch - DSL - EN, Fast EN, 802.11b, 802.11g.   I run Ubuntu (and Windows XP on kids machine)  Does anyone have an opinion about 3com product line? Do you suggest another brand over them? Feedback is appreciated.
[04:22] <psnel> ikonia: during upgrade to feisty i specified "none" when asked about arrays... its still trying to configure arrays... don't I need to be booted into that OS's root to use mdadm? (this is on "ramdisk" with feisty root under /mnt/hdc1)
[04:23] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, what exactly is a bare bones system?
[04:23] <wers> how do I edit .xml files?
[04:23] <ikonia> psnel: mdam does not try to configure or build disks at boot time unless you've specificed arrays
[04:23] <abhi> what is best resolution for ubuntu?
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: Look at places like egg or pricewatch and search for bare bones...  No-os and no hard drive
[04:23] <lunaphyte> what is the recommended method for getting dual monitor support to work with an ati firegl v3100?
[04:23] <pawan> i want to install ubuntu
[04:23] <pawan> how
[04:23] <Pici> !install | pawan
[04:23] <ubotu> pawan: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[04:23] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, ok
[04:23] <genii> Dante123: Well, frankly i would steer away from 3com. but that is just personal experience with this brand
[04:23] <dyrne> Dante123: id consider a cheaper modem/router and then a wrtg54L depending on what you need
[04:23] <wers> !xml
[04:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xml - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:24] <Pici> wers: Any text editor will do.
[04:24] <wers> how do I edit xml files?
[04:24] <wers> oooh
[04:24] <wers> okay
[04:24] <psnel> ikonia: i typed "none" as per instruction (could've also left blank) of the upgrad dialog.
[04:24] <acecase> has the way that grub uses UID of drives caused problems with VFS syncing (kernel panic at early boot)? I am a far cry from an expert but have compiled around 10 kernels for this system and I know I have my IDE chipset and filesystem information correct. I have also used my old (working) .config from 2.6.20 and still getting kernel panic "not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[04:24] <pawan> can ubuntu access files from ntfs and fat32 filesystem
[04:24] <psnel> ikonia: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf seems to have no values, only headers
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: yes
[04:25] <ikonia> psnel: that seems fine, so whats the problem
[04:25] <acecase> pawan, yes it can do anything with fat32 and limited ntfs support
[04:25] <pawan> i have g: drive which is 48 gb and it has ntfs file system
[04:25] <pawan> i want to setup ubuntu on that drive
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: if you want to write to the ntfs then look at ntfs-3g
[04:25] <_david> if you want to install to the drive you must format
[04:26] <pawan> format to what type
[04:26] <genii> Dante123: dyrne makes a point about using a separate modem then a wrt54, the wrt series is well supported for linux. If you need some all in one type solution however, perhaps look at SpeedStream wireless modem/router series. this is what Sympatico and others use
[04:26] <Pici> pawan: ext3
[04:26] <acecase> ntfs, as far as what i read, has full read support in kernel 2.6.2* but can only write to existing files if the length of the file isn't changed
[04:26] <psnel> ikonia: at boot i get err: "mdadm: No devices listed in conf file were found"
[04:26] <pawan> the whole 48gb
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: You cant install ubuntu on ntfs.. you nee to leave unallocated space or create ext3 partition or another linux type
[04:26] <stinger_au> yo
[04:26] <ikonia> psnel: then what ?
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[04:26] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:27] <stinger_au> Question: apache2 and php don't seem to be working together.. when i try to open a php file it wants to save it to disk ?
[04:27] <ikonia> stinger_au: there is a guide ont he ubuntu wiki to show you how to configure apache/php
[04:27] <pawan> if i go for wubi
[04:27] <acecase> ubotu, full read/write? safe?
[04:27] <ikonia> pawan: stop going on about wubi !
[04:27] <ikonia> pawan: we DON'T support it
[04:27] <acecase> :)
[04:27] <psnel> ikonia: also anoter err: "Alert! /dev/disk/by-uid/{...} does not exist" (cont...)
[04:27] <Pici> acecase: ubotu is a bot.
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> acecase: ntfs write is not considered stable.. and ubotu is a bot
[04:28] <ikonia> psnel: that shouldn't stop you booting
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> acecase: wrong
[04:28] <ikonia> psnel: if your system is still using raw disk - that should just be a warning
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> meant to say IS considered stab'e
[04:28] <pawan> so i should uninstall wubi and fresh install ubuntu
[04:28] <acecase> :) yeah he just told me to shut up basicly
[04:28] <ikonia> pawan: thats up to you
[04:28] <mrsno> Jack_Sparrow ntfs-3g is considered as stable as it will get really, but everyone should decide for themselves after reading their website
[04:28] <wers> I'm trying to edit my %gconf.xml. whenever I open it with a text editor, it is blank. should it really be that way coz its not blank if I open it with a web browser
[04:28] <psnel> ikonia: changed grub "root={}" to "root=/dev/hdc1", then got same err, with "Alert! /dev/hdc1 does not exist"
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: I know. typing too fast
[04:28] <Pici> wers: use gconf-editor to edit gconf.
[04:28] <mrsno> :-)
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: that was supposed to say is NOW not is NOT
[04:29] <ikonia> psnel: does hdc1 exist ?
[04:29] <dbzdeath[lappy] > hey i'm  having a lot of trouble getting wpa2 working with wpa_supplicant i have a ipw2200 could someone please help me?
[04:29] <mrsno> ahh i see :) nm
[04:29] <psnel> ikonia: then... Dropping to shell (very limited, not raw disk.. 'initramfs')
[04:29] <jinx_xnij> Whoever answered that music question, i appreciate it.
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> mrsno: I still wont do it, I keep a fat32.. I dont like either os writing to the other os home partition
[04:30] <psnel> ikonia: yes, I can mount it in knoppix... where i tried to disable it by renaming /etc/rc*.d/S*mdadm* .../K*...
[04:30] <acecase> so does anyone know if this is a common problem or if I am missing somthing? My suspect at this point is the way that grub is using UID of drive for root=   The default install will boot fine but it's using initrd and my kernel of course isn't
[04:30] <psnel> ikonia: sorry, "/mnt/hdc1/etc/..."
[04:31] <devilsreject> hello all
[04:31] <ikonia> very odd
[04:31] <pawan> i have two other os also installed
[04:31] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, do you need to build in a modem into your pc?
[04:31] <pawan> winxp and windows 2008 server
[04:31] <pawan> will it mess up
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: ONly if you need a modem
[04:31] <psnel> ikonia: i was hoping that would stop the service at * runlevels during boot
[04:32] <devilsreject> for some reason "sound converter" isn't working can someone please tell me the command to convert .wav into .mp3 in terminal???
[04:32] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, i have an external modem
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: If you are going to use a dialup I strongly suggest an external as they are easier to setup..
[04:32] <devilsreject> the file is on my desktop my username is devilsreject and the filename is theredealt1.wav
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: You should be good to go.
[04:32] <_david> what is this "Dial up"?
[04:32] <psnel> ikonia: also removed periodic array-checking script from /mnt/etc/cron.d/mdadm
[04:32] <ikonia> psnel: mdadm builds arrays without an init script
[04:32] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, i have got an ADSL external
[04:33] <ikonia> psnel: mdadm is build into the kernel (not the binary)
[04:33] <devilsreject> Jack_Sparro -- any idea on the command for wav to mp3 in terminal
[04:33] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, which mb is better...AMD or Intel
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: That isnt a dial-up.. you should be fine
[04:33] <psnel> ikonia: why's there init script then?
[04:33] <devilsreject> intel
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: This is the wrong room for this discussion...
[04:33] <devilsreject> well it depends on which u get
[04:33] <ikonia> psnel: for things like monitoring
[04:33] <psnel> ikonia: how do i tell kernel to cut that $h1t out
[04:33] <acecase> _david, :) the tounge of these foreiners is abstract. They speak of strange /dev of which noone understands

[04:34] <psnel> ikonia: ohh. hmm
[04:34] <ikonia> psnel: you can start by not using bad language, there is no reason for it
[04:34] <_david> acecase, :)
[04:34] <_imran_> Jack_Sparrow, can you tel me a room for that type of discussions
[04:34] <psnel> ikonia: sorry, no offence. meant to joke
[04:34] <_david> gah
[04:34] <_david> cant find my ubuntu server disc
[04:34] <devilsreject> anybody even know if its possible to convert .wav to .mp3 in terminal??
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> _imran_: Not really...  You might try #Mepis
[04:34] <ikonia> psnel: run fdisk on your disk see if any of the partion types are set to "Raid auto detect"
[04:34] <_david> anyone can find it for me?

[04:36] <_david> just found my ubuntu server cd, its got a watermark all over it :(
[04:36] <_david> which means no ready by servery
[04:36] <wers> I'm trying to change the colors of libnotify, should they be changed by the gtk_color_scheme entry in gconf?
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: That wont hurt, wash it off, dry it and use it
[04:36] <_david> Jack_Sparrow, its underneath

[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Seriously
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libnotify - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <_david> Jack_Sparrow, underneath, not on the bottom, i.e. between the layers
[04:37] <_david> cheap cdrs :P
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _david: Ok, that is a prob..
[04:37] <_david> never mind
[04:37] <acecase> I'm seeing loads of people with the same problem (correct kernel config and kernel panic compaining about (0,0)) but I'm not seeing any fixes
[04:37] <_david> its not quite 4pm yet :P
[04:38] <acecase> I blame grub
[04:38] <_david> I blame your node
[04:38] <stinger_au> ikonia i have found some it said to make sure php5 is installed which it is
[04:39] <stinger_au> ikonia any other ideas why its not picing up php files ?
[04:39] <acecase> my node?
[04:39] <psnel> ikonia: fdisk /dev/hda ; fdisk /dev/hdc  -- i can see partitions ('p'), how would I check  for "Raid auto detect"
[04:40] <_david> lol, was just gonna shutdown the wrong server
[04:41] <_david> forgot my internets goes through that one :P
[04:41] <genii> psnel Partition type defines raid autodetect
[04:42] <genii> hex, fd
[04:43] <bullgard4> Why do exist two directories /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/ and /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.20//Documentation instead of one?
[04:44] <genii> bullgard4: Because not everyone has the source code directory populated but everyone has the shared doc directory
[04:45] <pawan> hi
[04:45] <syst3m> Hi, how can I make the partition size smaller to create a new one for ubuntu? I cant get qparted to install in aptitude
[04:46] <pawan> i want to install ubuntu on 19 gb fat32 partition
[04:46] <pawan> its totally empty
[04:47] <pawan> how to install
[04:47] <bullgard4> genii: I do not understand your answer very well: "Everyone has the shared doc directory." If this is true, why is the other provided in addition?
[04:47] <genii> pawan if it's totally empty to start with, why do you want it to be fat32?
[04:47] <pawan> then
[04:47] <psnel> genii: sorry, I can't determin  "raid autodetect" from the output, can you may be look at it here.. http://pastebin.com/m33d105f9
[04:48] <triden1> pawan: Ubuntu has to be installed on emptyspace, it can't be installed in a allready formatted space. Format over that space.
[04:48] <pawan> but on other drive there are other os such as winxp and windows 2008 server
[04:48] <pawan> will it affect other os
[04:49] <genii> bullgard4 When you install the kernel source code, you get the second document in /usr/src directory. But even without having that source code on a clean install you get the default documentation in the shared documentation area.
[04:49] <triden1> pawan: Not if you only use that space... and setup grub at the end.
[04:49] <nimbo> oi where can i find the source code to "killall" ?
[04:49] <genii> psnel Looking, back shortly
[04:49] <psnel> ikonia: can you determine "raid autodetect" from this fdisk output? http://pastebin.com/m33d105f9
[04:50] <arang> question: how do i find out what process or program is holding a mounting device from unmounting? (command line please)
[04:50] <nomad111> does anyone use eclipse in here
[04:50] <nimbo> nomad111: yeah sometimes
[04:50] <pawan> what type should i format and how much space
[04:50] <nomad111> nimbo: are u using the latest version
[04:50] <syst3m> is there an alternate partition software to make partitions smaller like qparted?
[04:50] <nomad111> 3.3
[04:50] <Pici> nimbo: killall is part of the psmisc package.  apt-get source psmisc
[04:50] <nomad111> or europa as it says for me
[04:50] <genii> psnel: You don't have any raid autodetect partitions. they are straight linux eg:partition type 83, not partition type FD
[04:51] <nimbo> thx pici
[04:51] <Pici> syst3m: gparted
[04:51] <nimbo> nomad111: ah i remember i had problems with it, so i downloaded it manually from eclipse.org
[04:51] <syst3m> pici: thx :)
[04:51] <zero-1> I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop but I cant get fglxr driver to work in it
[04:51] <zero-1> any advice?
[04:51] <psnel> genii: ok, so if Id was 'FD' it was raid auto?
[04:52] <psnel> genii: if not raid auto-detect, then why is mdadm trying to setup arrays?
[04:52] <pawan> should i use paragon partiton manager to format the partition
[04:52] <psnel> genii: and how can I prevent it
[04:52] <nimbo> cya
[04:52] <hinogi> i have great problems with textures and lighting yes i know i admit i have an ati card but anyway can someone help ^^
[04:52] <NekoKun> how do I find all files that have 'foobar' inside of it?
[04:52] <nomad111> nimbo: can you please tell me what problem you had, currently i cant install plugins/updates because it just freezes when i select Help|Software Updates|Find and Install
[04:53] <zero-1> mine doesnt even work with the ati driver
[04:53] <hinogi> well mine does work

[04:53] <hinogi> but if i enter vor example games like a derivate of quake engine or enemy territory or such
[04:54] <hinogi> textures are messing up flashing and blinking

[04:58] <usr13> OR just somehow get it out of the way for a while?
[04:58] <psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/md0..15
[04:58] <usr13> nomad111, O
[04:58] <triden1> usr13: Right click, preferences*, enable hiding.
[04:58] <nomad111> usr13: select show hide buttons
[04:58] <nomad111> usr13: or autohide
[04:59] <NekoKun> Ok... regarding the find... I need to make some mass replacing of text... I was trying something with SED but Im not going as well I was expected... can someone suggest me a way? let's say, replace all bar for foo_bar?

[05:00] <pawan> how much space to allocate to ubuntu from 19gb fat32 partition
[05:01] <triden1> pawan: How much you feel, I personally like more than 2 GBs.
[05:01] <usr13> nomad111, Ok, thanks very much.
[05:01] <psnel> genii: under /mnt/ only hda1&2, hdc1 and hdb (primary slave: cdrom)
[05:01] <xanith> Anyone got a second to help me out with an ubuntu-server problem?
[05:01] <pawan> i fell 5gb then
[05:01] <triden1> xanith: Sure.
[05:02] <xanith> Okay, I work for a Web Development company, and we have 2 servers running linux
[05:02] <gym> what
[05:02] <xanith> Just recently, the servers started displaying apostrophes as a black diamond with a white question mark in it
[05:02] <genii> psnel So this is wrong? "<psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/md0..15"
[05:02] <xanith> We've never had this problem before, and these websites have been running for months with no changes
[05:02] <neverblue> xanith, can you do the question all in one line?
[05:02] <Davy_Jones> how can i tell gaim to go to the next tab in row when i press ctrl+tab and not the next active tab?
[05:02] <triden1> xanith: Sounds like a problem with your fonts...
[05:03] <psnel> genii: yes. there's no such entries
[05:03] <_Lucretia_> to install plone, the docs say to install plone and plone-site - I get an error in apt-get stating that plone doesn't exist - I'm on Ubuntu64-bit
[05:03] <xanith> Just recently, the servers started displaying apostrophes as a black diamond with a white question mark in it
[05:03] <xanith> We've never had this problem before, and these websites have been running for months with no changes
[05:03] <xanith> The sites are using charset UTF-8 as they always have been. I don't know why this problem all of a sudden?
[05:03] <psnel> genii: wait...
[05:03] <freepenguin> excuse somebody know why this site is off-line since somedays? http://amsn.lnxteam.org
[05:03] <neverblue> xanith, in which application  are you using?
[05:04] <triden1> xanith: Try re-installing the font packages? I personally don't run the server....
[05:04] <lunaphyte> ubuntuforums says "MergedFB only works with the open sources drivers (mga, ati, , which lack direct-rendering support for many Radeon models"  - how do i know which drivers i'm using?
[05:04] <xanith> An example of it's doing can be viewed here, http://www.mediathoroughbredgroup.com/blog/index.php/category/horse-racing-trivia/
[05:04] <neverblue> freeemind, we would not be able to tell that for you
[05:04] <xanith> neverblue: it does it in every browser, IE, Firefox and Opera
[05:04] <psnel> genii: under /mnt/hdc1/dev/ there is md0..15
[05:04] <acecase> the old way to use the root= flag in grub was just root=hd(0,0) rite? assuming my drive is first master IDE.
[05:04] <_Lucretia_> nd feisty
[05:04] <neverblue> xanith, its happening because your running apache?
[05:04] <psnel> genii: but aren't they just "placeholders"
[05:05] <genii> psnel: OK. Please use pastebin website to paste the contents of your file /etc/fstab
[05:05] <riaal> Anyone here happend to have a "new" 12" laptop running ubntu?
[05:05] <triden1> neverblue: Well, I believe running the server needs apache. :P
[05:05] <_Lucretia_> is anyone running plone?
[05:05] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, I use plone a lot
[05:05] <xanith> neverblue: how else would the web server work, every server is running apache that i know of, and they've never had these problems before until recently for some reason
[05:05] <nomad111> hey all how do i set the default jdk to use
[05:05] <nomad111> i want to use sun's one not gcj
[05:05] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: on which platform?
[05:06] <moonlite_> xanith: i'd guess that the problem is someone edited the pages and saved them as iso-8859-1
[05:06] <neverblue> xanith, when you said 'running stuff' on those servers, that could mean alot
[05:06] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, on a computer, AND a phone :)  What do you mean?
[05:06] <neverblue> xanith, excuse me for clarifying
[05:06] <moonlite_> the pages look ok when you change the encoding to 8859-1
[05:06] <genii> work, AFK
[05:06] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: fiesty? dapper? 32 or 64 bit?
[05:07] <Pitel> hi, i've a small problem -- some icons in gnome menu are missing, the looks like empty windows, but on my laptop, all icons looks nice. what can i do?
[05:07] <xanith> moonlite_: I do most of the coding here, and I know that I always hardcode UTF-8 and XHTML 1.0 Strict
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, I am headed out, I have installed and used zope/plone in many versions on many different hardware/distro (even windows twice) combinations
[05:07] <moonlite_> xanith: what dou you mean by "hardcode"?
[05:07] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: ok, the docs say install plone, but it doesn't exist
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, my public server is rhel3 though
[05:07] <psnel> genii: http://pastebin.com/m5a93a50e
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, plone.org
[05:07] <triden1> xanith: Never even heard of that, did you install anything recently on either server? And, also, what are you using to write stuff?
[05:07] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, and #plone
[05:07] <dennisharrison> see yall later
[05:07] <_Lucretia_> through deb's
[05:07] <xanith> moonlite_: I specifically input to use charset UTF-8 and specify that document type to XHTML 1.0 Strict with the W3C link...
[05:08] <dennisharrison> _Lucretia_, naw don't do the debs, install from source, much better
[05:08] <xanith> triden1: I do all my coding for xhtml and css in notepad...
[05:08] <moonlite_> could it be that the page that you are showing fetches text from a database that is iso8859-1 encoded then?
[05:08] <acecase> lol I was going to get away from all the make-kpkg crap and just do it manualy (make && make modules_install) and add an entry to grub.conf but grub.conf is menu.lst now and I don't remember how to specify the root the old way
[05:08] <_Lucretia_> dennisharrison: ok, what about zope tho?
[05:08] <moonlite_> xanith: does notepad save as utf8?
[05:09] <moonlite_> i'm pretty sure it encodes as latin-1
[05:09] <genii> psnel: Ok, looking
[05:09] <triden1> xanith: Notepad on windows? A fine kettle of fish that brings up.
[05:09] <acecase> im thinking maby i should get back to gentoo
[05:09] <xanith> notepad doesn't save formatting, and when you save as an html document, it saves the code as strictly what you typed in
[05:09] <xanith> it's the most barebone way that you could ever code
[05:10] <triden1> xanith: Yes, but when you send the files, there could be a mishmatch of charater sets even though you specifically set them.
[05:10] <xanith> well i mean i guess i could code in vi or nano.. but they dont use linux on our normal pcs here at work :(
[05:10] <dyrne> acecase: debian maybe. i wouldnt use gentoo :)
[05:10] <liquiddoom> xanith: the most barebone way would be echo 'code' >> file
[05:10] <nomad111> !jdk
[05:10] <acecase> xanith, you can get xvim for windows
[05:10] <triden1> xanith: http://desktopondemand.com if you don't program top secret things.
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jdk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <nomad111> !sdk
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sdk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <moonlite_> xanith: you don't seem to understand what i mean. Notepad doesn't offer you the possibility to encode the file you're saving as utf-8, only iso8859-1
[05:10] <nomad111> !java
[05:10] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:11] <genii> psnel: Nothing to explain it there :(  (was looking for md devices)
[05:11] <xanith> moonlite_: some of these sites are also programed in dreamweaver, not using the visual, visual tab is a BIG NO NO here, we always use the coding tab...
[05:11] <xanith> moonlite_: and these sites as well have this problem
[05:11] <xanith> but reguardless, i don't think it has anything to do with the files themselves, because they have worked fine for months, all of a sudden the files (unchanged) started showing this weird symbol
[05:11] <genii> psnel Maybe you have some other HD which has partition types of FD (raid autodetect) ?
[05:12] <moonlite_> xanith: well then dreamweaver might also be encoding the pages as latin1?
[05:12] <xanith> it has to be within the server that is hosting them
[05:12] <acecase> dyrne, I don't know about the whole debian system. I'm sure it's great but I don't know how to do the basic crap with it. I know how to build a kernel for this box under gentoo because it just uses the basics. grub doesn't use grub.conf anymore but menu.lst is the same format
[05:12] <xanith> because i've copied one of the sites to my remote server for my personal website, and the problem was no longer there
[05:12] <xanith> i don't know what my hosting company does differently than we do
[05:12] <psnel> genii: I used to get a boot error about "dev/disk/by-uuid/{...}", after changing grub to root=/dev/hdc1... error also changed
[05:13] <moonlite_> xanith: you should probably ask the hosting company then. :)
[05:13] <psnel> genii: where's the mapping from /hdc1 to the UUID we see in fstab?
[05:13] <acecase> psnel, thank you. you just answered my Q :) I couldn't remember that
[05:13] <xanith> lol, i doubt that they'd be willing to just give up that kind of information, or even pay their admins to talk to me about it lol
[05:13] <Dante123> thanks for input on 3com products etc.  I had a speedstream 6300 with sympatico and it worked nicely.  I'll have to see how much they are.  3com has a good three year warranty with that particular product but I will consider others as well.
[05:13] <Steven_> Hi, is there someone who fixes bugs on launchpad?
[05:14] <IceLink> is there a program i can compress .ogg-files with?
[05:14] <triden1> Steven_: Well, depends on what bug you are talking about.
[05:14] <genii> psnel The system should be doing this automatically with blkid to decide the uuid of the / system
[05:14] <Pici> Steven_: A bug with launchpad itself, or an Ubuntu bug on Launchpad?
[05:15] <Steven_> and ubungu "bug"
[05:15] <humbolto> alternate installer is unable to mount my cdrom drive!
[05:15] <Steven_> i've found a "bug" with checksum offloading with my network card, drivery sky2
[05:15] <xanith> /channels
[05:15] <humbolto> the CDR is /dev/scd0 at a firewire port
[05:15] <Davy_Jones> !pidgin
[05:15] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[05:15] <humbolto> I can mount it by hand but bootstrap won't work
[05:15] <psnel> genii: /mnt/hdc1/dev/disk/by-uuid/ does not even exist, why would grub look for it there?
[05:15] <Pici> Steven_: Did you log a bug?
[05:16] <moonlite_> xanith: umm what information? You have a problem with their servers all of a sudden not showing your pages like they should. Ofcourse you should get help, or otherwise your hosting company isn't worrth much.
[05:16] <acecase> and that WAS it. :) just as i suspected. it was the way grub was using UID for the root=. changed it to root=/dev/hda2 and poof i'm up
[05:16] <Xenocide> is anyone able to help me with a simple shell script?
[05:16] <EoF> Hi
[05:16] <acecase> psnel, thank you again. without meening to you answered a question that noone else could.
[05:16] <Pici> Xenocide: Perhaps, whats up?
[05:16] <wbadger> Xenocide, maybe #bash will be more helpful
[05:16] <Steven_> Pici, log? if i've reported it?
[05:16] <genii> psnel /mnt/hdc1/<anything> has nothing to do with uuid mappings
[05:16] <triden1> !ask | Xenocide
[05:17] <xanith> moonlite_: lol no no, ok we have servers here that we use for offering hosting to our clients... because we do web development. our servers have the issue, when i moved one of our sites to my personal server that i have through another hosting company for my personal portfolio, the problem was solved. i don't know what they are doing that we aren't...
[05:17] <EoF> I want to buy a Matrox DualHead2Go but I would like to know first if it's possible to install it on Ubuntu
[05:17] <ubotu> Xenocide: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:17] <psnel> acecase: glad i did't meen to :-)
[05:17] <sharperguy> anyone know how i can mount a .bin disk image file?
[05:17] <genii> !iso
[05:17] <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.
[05:17] <triden1> sharperguy: .bin is a diskimage? Since when? .dmg and .iso are all of the standard ones I know.
[05:17] <Xenocide> well i am trying to prase arguments from the command line, and i am able to get the last argument, but i cna't get the second to last argument
[05:18] <Shoopuf> Anyone here have a CMEDIA onboard sound card and have trouble with some programs with sound?
[05:18] <genii> sharperguy: Same as iso method listed above
[05:18] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, what is the problem you have?
[05:18] <Steven_> Pici, i've found a "bug", (something need to get fixed, or card blacklisted from checksum offloading).. i need to report it, wich package should I use? (linux-source?)
[05:18] <acecase> now the question is, why screw with something that works when there is no benifit? dpkg or kpkg, whichever sets that, is doing no good
[05:18] <xanith> triden1: .bin is a disk image file, but normally needs a .cue file to execute it properly?
[05:18] <EoF> anybody knows if it's possible to configure the Matrox dualHead2Go under ubuntu? There's windows and MAC drivers but i cannot find nothing for linux
[05:18] <JC_Denton_> has anyone gotten battlefield42 to work with cedega?
[05:18] <moonlite_> xanith: oh ok. You'll have to go through some trial and error-process then i suppose. Good luck!
[05:18] <Pici> Steven_: Yes. But check launchpad first, there are alot of sky2 driver bugs logged.
[05:19] <triden1> Steven_: You don't have to use a package, someone can some in and label it correctly later. (That's the lazy trident way of doing it.)
[05:19] <EoF> I don't want to be a Vista slave
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: on our servers, just recently sites started displaying apostrophes as black diamonds with question marks in them..
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: nothing was changed, it just happened all of a sudden, and we don't know why.
[05:19] <psnel> genii: yes, but the error (when booting into hdc1) was about there not being any /dev/disk/by-uid/{..} , theres not even a /dev/disk/
[05:19] <reverseblade> is it necessary to open a terminal for ".profile" file to run, or logging into a gnome/KDE session is suffcient ?
[05:19] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: you can see an example of what it's doing here, http://www.mediathoroughbredgroup.com/blog/index.php/category/horse-racing-trivia/
[05:19] <sharperguy> genii, it says i need to specify a filesytem type
[05:19] <Davy_Jones> EoF: i'm afraid you don't have the choice sometimes
[05:19] <Steven_> Pici, triden1: tnx
[05:20] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, any errors in your logs? It sounds like an encoding issue, e.g. you're using the wrong ISO version
[05:20] <orange__> I try to download installing flashplayer 9 tar gz and then ./flashplayer-installer and i get x86_64 is not supported
[05:20] <EoF> yes i think so
[05:20] <EoF> :'(
[05:20] <genii> sharperguy Is it some dos bootdisk image, or some cdrom image?
[05:20] <sharperguy> genii, its a cdrom
[05:20] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: we're using UTF-8, but what logs are you referring to? apache?
[05:20] <genii> sharperguy then use -t iso9660   as the filesystem type
[05:20] <sharperguy> ok
[05:21] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, yeah, but seeing it now, I don't think that will be in apapche logs - though ofc worth taking a look.
[05:21] <Pici> orange__: Thats because x86_64 isnt supported by the macromedia.
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> orange__: Flash.. 64bit... and the instructions say it is supported for 64?  Where?
[05:21] <Pici> !flash64 | orange__ check this out
[05:21] <ubotu> orange__ check this out: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:21] <EoF> I don't want to use never a Vista system. But isn't possible to aquire a laptop without it. And I'm ready to use fully ubuntu (no grub ini) but I need to setup 2 external screens to my laptop
[05:21] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, it doesn't appear to be just apostrophes actually - unless you have random apostrophes.
[05:21] <Alkaron> *help* wanted
[05:21] <sharperguy> genii, bad fs type :(
[05:21] <triden1> Pici: It's adobe now. :P
[05:21] <Pici> triden1: Er, I knew that.  :p
[05:22] <EoF> With the docking station (has 2 vga outs) isn't possible
[05:22] <Pici> !ask | Alkaron
[05:22] <ubotu> Alkaron: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:22] <genii> psnel That /dev/disk/by-uuid   thing is a way to find the uuid of a drive. but now is used the command blkid instead.
[05:22] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: I think it's actually apostrophes and hyphens maybe?
[05:22] <triden1> EoF: Maybe you should try a liveCD first and see if you can prod it to work.
[05:22] <genii> sharperguy If it's a DVD then use -t udf
[05:22] <Davy_Jones> EoF: there are laptops that ships with fedora
[05:22] <fluffles> hey guys, im trying to install 7.04. when manually partitioning i chose to use XFS, but it will only create a partition of 39GB large - no bigger (my volume is 1.75TB) -- what am i doing wrong?
[05:22] <EoF> and I'm searching the other way. Matrox has a great product, but not compatible with linux
[05:22] <Lunar_Lamp> Hyphens possibly, yes, but look at the end of the line "the white carnation is the official belmont flower" there is one there.
[05:22] <EoF> yes
[05:22] <sharperguy> genii, it isnt a dvd, and that didnt work either
[05:22] <psnel> genii: ok. new way of doing things
[05:23] <Alkaron> Ok!.. I downloaded the LIVE CD from ubuntu.com and it boots fine on my stationary PC .. but when using it on my LAPTOP (Celeron based) I just get an error message stating Cant access tty; job controll turned off ..
[05:23] <EoF> but if matrox not works under linux I don't want it
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> my Maxtor external hard drive works with linux
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> oh, matrox
[05:23] <Alkaron> and then I get a CLI-like prompt displaying (initramfs)
[05:23] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, also, it appears to be jus tthat page - check out the source.
[05:23] <psnel> genii: so, any idea on how to disable raid?
[05:23] <chimp_rex> i just installed beryl on my ubuntu feisty...i checked out the settings manager and found the <SUPER> key...what's a <SUPER> key, by the way. (pardon my ignorance)
[05:23] <triden1> EoF: Give it a shot, still looking for some sort of review or something that has an answer.
[05:23] <triden1> chimp_rex: Windows key.
[05:23] <abo> can anyone point me to the guide to install wireless cards in ubuntu?
[05:23] <Pici> chimp_rex: The super key is your windows key.
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> chimp_rex: is the win key
[05:24] <chimp_rex> oh. thanks! triden1
[05:24] <Prophezy> hi there :)
[05:24] <neverblue> !wireless | abo
[05:24] <ubotu> abo: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:24] <Prophezy> how r you in here ?
[05:24] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, the marker is in the SOURCE code of the page, hehee - someone has most likely edited the file in a dodgy editor :-)
[05:24] <Alkaron> hello?
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> but why is it super?
[05:24] <Stormx2> Ah I'm getting tired of this. Whenever nautilus crashes, it goes into "uninteruptable" mode, and won't die. I can't open another copy of nautilus either. Any ideas?
[05:24] <triden1> Davy_Jones: Because windows is a trademark?
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> does it fly?
[05:24] <genii> psnel Frustratingly, no. Since you have no raid devices in /etc/fstab, and no raid definition file in /etc/raid/raidtab
[05:24] <markzor> can anyone help me with my problem, details at this thread on the community forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=507664
[05:24] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: Yea I know the source code shows them that way, but that file when viewed locally (the file that was uploaded to the server) does not have those characters, the server views them that way, and the source code shows them that way
[05:24] <markzor> thanks
[05:24] <chimp_rex> yeah, why is it super?
[05:24] <genii> psnel As well as no discernable autodetect raid partitions
[05:25] <Pici> chimp_rex: because they needed a good name for another meta-key.
[05:25] <chimp_rex> it has the windows logo on, and it's called super. :-)
[05:25] <bullgard4> In  http://tinyurl.com/2vy5ul FUNCTION: acpi_evaluate_object: What is meant with "find and evaluate the given object"?
[05:25] <markzor> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=507664 have a look and leave any help or suggestions on the thread, thanks
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> because a cape is stamped on it and it looks like super man's cape.. so they called it the super key
[05:25] <chimp_rex> ok, thanks again.
[05:25] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: and these files haven't been changed in months... and it's not only that site, it's more than one site on the server that all started showing things this way at once...
[05:25] <psnel> genii: can't we just tell the kernel to not use raid?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, hmm, where re you viewing the file locally? via a local apache install? What happens if you login to the server and edit them out?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, perhaps something has become corrupted?
[05:25] <triden1> !repeat | markzor
[05:25] <ubotu> markzor: 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
[05:26] <genii> sharperguy: Then the image is not some standard cdrom image file and you likely need to convert it then to something like iso before it is usable
[05:26] <Prophezy> can anyone recommend a similar software like Dreamweaver for Ubuntu?
[05:26] <bagualas> Why I can't listen two things at the same time? Like a video on Youtube and xmms? Using the onboard nvidia sound
[05:26] <markzor> !patience
[05:26] <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
[05:26] <Alkaron> hmmm..
[05:26] <Pici> bullgard4: This might a question better suited to #ubuntu-devel or possibly #ubuntu-kernel
[05:26] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: Yes, viewing the file locally (as i created it) does not have those characters.
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> Prophezy: Nvu
[05:26] <Alkaron> I guess there are too many people in here and too many questions pending
[05:26] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: and that's my question what could've become corrupt or what could i change to get things back to they way they were
[05:26] <sharperguy> genii, ok
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> !Nvu | Prophezy
[05:26] <ubotu> Prophezy: nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but add your name to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty to be notified when packages are available.  See also !html.
[05:26] <reverseblade> Prophezy, tried dreamviewer itself with wine ?
[05:26] <markzor> yep
[05:26] <psnel> genii: maybe theres some other "mapping" in the blkid mechanism for UUID that includes raid? something not specified in /etc/fstab
[05:26] <Alkaron> !tty
[05:26] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[05:26] <bullgard4> Pici: But I am no ubuntu-developer.
[05:26] <markzor> far too many questions
[05:27] <Prophezy> Davy thanks i will try that one
[05:27] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, hmm, you could try reuploading the original and seeing if that fixes it,  if it does it's likely just the file itself that's corrupt.
[05:27] <Pici> bullgard4: But you're asking a programming question..
[05:27] <Davy_Jones> Alkaron: there are far more people that ask than people that contribute
[05:27] <triden1> markzor: Hm, it dosen't sound like total toast, but, try to get your data out of there and then do what the responder said.
[05:27] <Alkaron> Davy_Jones: seems like it
[05:27] <Prophezy> Ubutu i will try yours to :) thanks alot
[05:27] <Alkaron> Unf..
[05:27] <markzor> ill leave it to you guys but whenever you have time id appreciate it if someone could look at my situation

[05:27] <genii> psnel: The only other thing offhand which comes to mind is that one of the other hard drives has some partitions which are the "araid autodetect" partition type. Or possibly in grub configuration some remnant raid thing
[05:27] <Prophezy> i can
[05:27] <triden1> markzor: Try getting your data out, and just hold on a bit.

[05:31] <absenth> Pici: figured I needed to know what ubuntu thought it was called....  as it is, lsusb didn't help, but parsing through dmesg found it.
[05:31] <acecase> I just got my kernel together and booted and I only have 5 modules set to load but for some reason ubuntu in a very Windows like fashion has decided for me to load a whole host of other modules for which I have NO dependencies.
[05:32] <berent> if i have ubuntu on /dev/hda1 and i copy everything by a copy command to /dev/hda2 will it boot/work there just by changing root = (hd0,x) to (hd0,x+1)
[05:32] <gamalegy> hello
[05:32] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: I don't believe it has anything to do with the files themselves because a lot of different sites started doing this

[05:33] <daedra> soooo I'm having trouble tunneling X over ssh
[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> xanith, it might be worth having a chat in apache then, but something in that file is being interpreted as those chars - what are you writing your files in? nano/vim? or something more complex?
[05:33] <daedra> it says I don't have the authority - though I can run terminal programs over ssh
[05:33] <acecase> berent, there are a lot of other places with configuration specific setting (eg. /etc/fstab)
[05:33] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: some of them are coded in dreamweaver's code tab, some are in nano/vim...
[05:33] <xanith> Lunar_Lamp: but all are having the same issues
[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> hmm, ok
[05:34] <Lunar_Lamp> I think you might want to have a chat in #apache then to see if someone can give you a pointer, i'm not sure what would be causig that - I'm not really an expert at all.
[05:35] <_david> why is lvm setup on ubuntu server really buggy? :/
[05:35] <berent> acecase : lets say i have a line put in fstab as /dev/hda2 mount as / then will i work?

[05:36] <orange__> i find a folder for /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/
[05:36] <genii> psnel Did you have the hard drive before as slave on main IDE and a windoze disk as master there??
[05:36] <acecase> berent, that would be a start but like I said. there can be a lot
[05:36] <orange__> i can't find a folder for /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/

[05:43] <DShepherd> daedra, ssh -X location
[05:43] <acecase> shahab_sh, I don't know if you can add it to your sources.list (or whatever it is) but if nothing else you can just install the deb using dpkg -i
[05:43] <triden1> unnecessary is.

[05:46] <triden1> webwolf_27: System -> admin -> restricted...
[05:46] <CardinalBiggles> webwolf_27, No one is going to commit to helping you by saying "yes".  Just ask.
[05:46] <falcon409> shahab_sh: most packages are compatible with each other but there still are a lots of packages that ubuntu makes don't work with debian

[05:49] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Ah.  Does the place from which you're running SSH have access to the X server?  Can you run "xeyes" from where you are?
[05:49] <genii> psnel Correct.
[05:49] <falcon409> shahab_sh: what are you trying to install ?
[05:50] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no
[05:50] <orange__> can someone help me
[05:50] <psnel> genii: that means i have to reboot.. and leave you alone, right?
[05:50] <orange__> i can't find a folder for /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/ ???
[05:50] <daedra> here's the stdout of xeyes http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/30920/
[05:50] <genii> psnel Well, i will still be around after reboot
[05:51] <kayzu> how do i install ubuntu from the live cd without installing GRUB to the MBR ?
[05:51] <kayzu> i don't want GRUB touch my MBR =/
[05:51] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, That's the problem.  Your client isn't allowed to connect to the server.  From inside the server trust zone, you can connect to it with SSH and then let ssh tunnel it out, but you can't start from the outside.
[05:52] <absenth> anyone have experiance with modern HP Pavillion laptops, and the integrated webcam?
[05:52] <psnel> genii: heh. thanks! talk again soon. rebooting.....
[05:52] <nibbs> how do i search for a file from the CLI?
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Am I making sense?
[05:52] <shahab_sh> falcon409: look, it's my first day that i'm using ubuntu, befor that i used debian etch. now i just wanna know if i can use my debian packages in ubuntu
[05:52] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: so what should I do?
[05:52] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no that made no sense
[05:52] <genii> kayzu: How were you planning for the computer to load ubuntu then? lilo or some other boot loader?
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> You could turn off authentication altogether.  if you are allowed to log in, you're allowed to connect to the X host.
[05:52] <shahab_sh> because i dont have high speed internet but i have 3dvds for debian etch
[05:52] <Punkunity> need help please with an update manager problem
[05:52] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, ^
[05:52] <erUSUL> nibbs: locate or find

[05:53] <DShepherd> nibbs, locate is nice too. thanks erUSUL
[05:53] <kayzu> genii: I'll let NTLDR load GRLDR
[05:53] <CardinalBiggles> (Or something like that.)
[05:53] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: but I _am_ allowed to log in - I can tunnel non X apps over ssh just fine
[05:53] <bouwiex> Hello, I enabled my wake on lan in my bios. Problem now is when i shutdown the computer it reboots. When I disable the function in the bios, shutdown works fine. Earlier i had windows on this computer and there the wake on lan and shutdown worked. Any Idea?
[05:54] <Shoopuf> Anyone have a guide on painlessly installing Windows for doing a dual-boot?
[05:54] <kayzu> I just don't want GRUB to mess with my MBR because windows is my main OS
[05:54] <CardinalBiggles> You could turn off authentication altogether, meaning then that if you are allowed to log in, you're allowed to connect to the X host.
[05:55] <GigaClon> Shoopuf, install windows first on the first partition on the hard
[05:55] <genii> kayzu Have you edited the windoze file boot.ini before?
[05:55] <rolfen> can copy dvd to a file image using brasero... it says there is not enough space but there is actually 16G of empty space on my drive... why is it doing this?
[05:55] <GigaClon> err Hard Drive
[05:55] <slimjimflim> shoopuf, make sure you install windows first, or else it will take over mbr
[05:55] <orange__> i can't find a folder for /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/ ???
[05:55] <DShepherd> http://www.howtoforge.com/dual_boot_windows_xp_vista_ubuntu_feisty -- this might help Shoopuf
[05:55] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok I'll try that
[05:55] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, A better way is to SSH the other way.  From within a process spawned inside X, there, run SSH and connect out.
[05:56] <rolfen> Session error : the selected location does not have enough free space to store the disc image (1616 MiB needed)
[05:56] <rolfen> i have 16 GiB empty space on that location!
[05:56] <kayzu> genii: yes. But how can I get GRUB to install to the root dir instead of the MBR ? I don't won't have a /boot partition, just / and swap
[05:56] <Pici> orange__: What makes you think that directory should exist?
[05:56] <genii> kayzu At any rate, if you have installed ubuntu to some other hard drive entirely, install grub to the main drive of that eg: /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc  or so on. Do not install grub to a specific subpartition eg: /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 or so on. this will mess it up
[05:56] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no that doesn't work either
[05:57] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, What doesmn't work?
[05:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: (from within X tunneling out)
[05:57] <Punkunity> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30923/
[05:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: i'm still trying the first
[05:57] <Punkunity> anyone>??

[05:58] <orange__> to instal flash player 9 linux
[05:58] <kayzu> genii, I don't want GRUB on any MBR :/
[05:58] <orange__> installing the plugin
[05:58] <Pici> orange__: perhaps you need to create that folder first.
[05:58] <Punkunity> the update manager is saying that all 17 updates url's are wrong or something pici
[05:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I assure you that tunneling out (not in) does work.  Perhaps you have some other restriction preventing it, that I don't know about?
[05:58] <orange__> but i cant'
[05:58] <orange__> not allow
[05:58] <DShepherd> orange__, sudo maybe?
[05:58] <Pici> orange__: you can using sudo

[05:59] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "xeyes"?
[06:00] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: that happens when merely doing ssh 127.0.0.1 -X from within X
[06:00] <obelix> does anyone knows any bartending software?
[06:00] <genii> kayzu You cannot install it to some subpartition as i just explained. So if you put ubuntu on second hard drive, put grub on the main of that drive eg: /dev/hdb for slave on main IDE or so on. There is no way I know of to not have grub on the beginning of at least the drive linux is installed to
[06:00] <seanw> There is a figlet clone called toilet, a debian package exists. Would someone please adopt it so I can apt-get or something similar? :-)

[06:02] <genii> kayzu: Conceivably you could not install grub at all, if you know the exact windoze-type boot.ini entry which will point it to the exact partition you installed it to. but that is beyond the scope of this channel, you will need to seek help in a windows support

[06:04] <Pici> orange__: the howto I linked to you earlier explains that you need to move the extracted diretory into /usr/local/firefox32 did you do that?

[06:05] <seanw> Pici, I believe you, but I am getting "E: Couldn't find package toilet"
[06:05] <genii> kayzu If you want to NOT install it, I think there is an option not to. Otherwise like i said, put it on main of the hard drive device you put ubuntu on, like /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc or whatever
[06:05] <psnel> BlackGhos: yes.. using VNC
[06:05] <orange__> Pici do i need to install Install 32 Bit Emulation Libraries? first
[06:05] <kayzu> okay, thanks

[06:06] <falcon409> orange__, : what are you trying to do
[06:06] <falcon409> ?
[06:06] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: echo $TERM gives xterm
[06:06] <Punkunity> pici some guy was saying to change my sources list thing with a text editor
[06:06] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, okay.  Now, type "xterm" at the prompt.  What happens?
[06:06] <orange__> falcon409 i trying install flash player 9 in firefox as plugin
[06:06] <Pici> Punkunity: Do a find/change in /etc/apt/sources.list and replace http://mirrors.xmission.com to http://us.archive.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <falcon409> are you using 64 bit ?
[06:06] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf just make sure you get the jumpers set to slave on one and master on the other...doesn't matter which one....they just can't be the same...other than that you're good to go
[06:07] <Pici> seanw: Thats odd.
[06:07] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: at the prompt _within_ ssh or normally
[06:07] <seanw> Pici, just what I was thinking!
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, No ssh.  Forget ssh.
[06:07] <slimjimflim> Shoopuf i imagine you're familiar with your cmos enough to pull it off?
[06:07] <Pici> seanw: What version are you running?
[06:07] <stealthy> Ok, this is pissin me off
[06:07] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: it spawns another xterm
[06:07] <EchoBinary> so i learned that old USSR has a standard time, and that there was a sickle and hammer as a sundial outside the Kremlin used to Sync the time - they called it "Hammer Time"
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Good.
[06:07] <stealthy> KDE is saying it's running at 2560x960, which is what it should be
[06:07] <Shoopuf> slimjimflim: not really but i can figure it out :) gonna be another week or two before i can afford one anyway so im not too worried about it
[06:07] <Punkunity> pici how do i do that??
[06:07] <stealthy> But it's viewporting to monitor0 640x480
[06:07] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, So, $ echo $DISPLAY
[06:07] <BlackGhos> Does Ubuntu have the ability to be Remote Desktoped from a Windows Machine ?
[06:08] <theAnswer> hey, i'm always getting error code 139 - but the installed progs usually work ...
[06:08] <stealthy> gnome's working fine
[06:08] <Pici> Punkunity: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:08] <stealthy> XFCE's workign fine
[06:08] <Punkunity> pici should i just erase all those lines and just addf the one line
[06:08] <stealthy> but KDE's got some weird issue that's viewporting me
[06:08] <daedra> CardinalBiggles:
[06:08] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: Ubuntu comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by
[06:08] <daedra> sorry
[06:08] <falcon409> orange__, : I have a 64 AMD box ....... plugins like flash and java don't work in 64 bit firefox so I use 32 firefox and plugings work ...... check out this How to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537
[06:08] <bouwiex> No one who can help me with the reboot problem?
[06:08] <Pici> Punkunity: no, replace each instance of mirrors.xmission.com with us.archive.ubuntu.com
[06:08] <seanw> Pici, not sure - how can I check?
[06:08] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: echo $DISPLAY gives :1.0
[06:09] <Pici> seanw: lsb_release -a
[06:09] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, excellent.  Now, "xeyes".
[06:09] <Punkunity> so just delete that one part and replace it with the other right wehere the original was pici
[06:09] <slimjimflim> shoopuf, just get a cheap one at a garage sale or on froogle.....you shouldn't need to spend over 30 bucks for a 50 gig or so....and to get to your bios/cmos options, at boot hit your function keys and delete until it opos up
[06:09] <Pici> Punkunity: Exactly.
[06:09] <seanw> Pici, dapper, it seems
[06:09] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yep it works
[06:09] <Punkunity> ty pici
[06:09] <genii> kayzu I'm pretty sure there is something like "skip this step" or similar you can choose
[06:09] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Ah.  So, local clients can connect to the X server.
[06:10] <daedra> yep
[06:10] <Pici> seanw: Looks like toilet was first introduced in Feisty.
[06:10] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Now, $ ssh -v -X remotehost
[06:10] <seanw> Pici, so there is no way I can get to it from dapper?
[06:10] <jrwr> How do i change my resolution, its in 800x600
[06:10] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:10] <genii> psnel: Well, if you are feeling adventurous we could revert the fstab file to not use uuid
[06:10] <Pici> seanw: Not really, unless you find it's source and compile it.
[06:10] <seanw> Pici, I can live with that I guess; thanks.
[06:11] <genii> psnel: I would recommend first making backups

[06:11] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: I'll pastebin it as its verbose
[06:11] <bullgard4> /usr/share/doc/tracker-search-tool/README.gz section 'Tracker And Nautilus Search' writes: "Once you have installed Tracker and have some indexed contents, you should now compile Nautilus which should auto detect that tracker is installed and automatically compile in tracker support." How can I do this Nautilus compilation?
[06:11] <jrwr> Shoopuf:  tried that, 800x600 is only one listed
[06:11] <psnel> genii: but to answer.. Yes, i'm adventurous (i'm starting to ache)
[06:11] <genii> psnel: The idea of using uuid is something like when you have 3 or 4 external HD for instance, you want to know which one is which and mount them correct FS and so on

[06:13] <psnel> genii: prob not gonna happen here, so we can try
[06:13] <genii> psnel OK, I will make a modified /etc/fstab from your old pastebin, give me a minute
[06:13] <stealthy> bah, found my problem

[06:20] <panfist> blackghos yes it does
[06:20] <BlackGhos> k
[06:20] <panfist> blackghos you need to install a vnc server on ubuntu, and a vnc client on windows, there are a few of each available
[06:21] <rampy> triden1: i  tried some solutions online but nothing seems to work including wpa supplicant
[06:21] <diafic_> !maintainer xchat

[06:22] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: hello?
[06:22] <Yggdrasil> whats the cmd to find out the uuid of a drive ?
[06:22] <triden1> BlackGhos: Nope, but there are really tiny standalone clients for doing that.
[06:22] <BlackGhos> K
[06:22] <panfist> blackghos you must use a vnc client, but there are several free, small vnc clients for windows,

[06:25] <bad_boy> i instaled ubuntu, and default booting os is ubuntu. Where to change that????
[06:25] <triden1> bad_boy: hit esc at startup.
[06:25] <bad_boy> then?
[06:25] <triden1> Use arrows to change OS.
[06:25] <bad_boy> yea, but i want default to be windows. If i don't press any key to start windows
[06:26] <triden1> Default is the last one you booted with, so, that should be fine.
[06:26] <triden1> Also, why don't you want ubuntu to be the default? :P
[06:26] <octocore> can someone explain how to install my ethernet driver? i can't connect to the internet w/o it!
[06:26] <panfist> im having trouble getting ubuntu to install on my desktop...the feisty live cd and alternate CD were giving me errors which people thought were part of the new kernel, and now the edgy live CD hangs after i choose "boot or install ubuntu" help please

[06:27] <panfist> triden1 2 gigs
[06:27] <DShepherd>  bad_boy you can change it permanently by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst. change default 0 to default <number>. number is where windows falls in the list

[06:29] <CardinalBiggles> stealthy, Yes, fl.us.
[06:29] <stealthy> ah
[06:29] <feo> pilotlg747 yes you must edit the xorg.conf file and change de mouse configuration

[06:30] <stealthy> is that possible?

[06:31] <pilotlg747> feo, do you know the parameter?
[06:31] <slimjimflim> mc44, with a space?

[06:31] <stealthy> whereas damn near everything else is smart enough to only use one monitor
[06:31] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Ah!  Figure out what that means.
[06:32] <stealthy> and there are no resolution options for the game, other than the 2560x960

[06:32] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: durrrr I think I need to chmod it to be writable
[06:32] <varka> mc44: you told him to put a space between command and & which is wrong
[06:32] <pi3> spelester: try #gnome
[06:32] <iphv37> ..how do i install a .x86.run game?
[06:33] <slimjimflim> mc44 no, and i tried it w/ and w/o the space
[06:33] <mc44> varka: its not wrong... well it works here at least
[06:33] <slimjimflim> it still starts the prog though
[06:33] <varka> !worksforme
[06:33] <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.

[06:33] <stealthy> hmm

[06:34] <JonRob> 1gb
[06:34] <slimjimflim> JonRob, checksum?
[06:34] <JonRob> slimjimflim: it's prob worth pointing out too - it's a modified image
[06:34] <elkbuntu> JonRob, modified from what version?
[06:34] <slimjimflim> well, try one that's not modified
[06:35] <facecoos> need help with proftpd
[06:35] <JonRob> 7.04 - i've made it custom to add some files to the desktop for a demo disc i'm putting together
[06:35] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: even when I chmod it it doesn't work
[06:35] <mc44> slimjimflim: what happens when you add a &, anything different
[06:35] <JohnsonsWhatever> How do I get RUN screen up!?
[06:35] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???

[06:36] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: Yes, but no !.
[06:36] <slimjimflim> mc44, like i just said, it doesn't help, whether i do `commandX &` or `commandX&
[06:36] <iphv37> DShepherd and tehtechman, ty!

[06:36] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Who owns it?
[06:36] <mc44> slimjimflim: I mean, does it do anything different to when you don't use &
[06:36] <genii> JonRob: If cd is good, most common is: 2 or dual-head videocards where out put is going to monitor you don't expect   or: the cpu needs a kernel option like noacpi or for some dualcore, the option  notsc
[06:36] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: remember what to write to start Beryl thememanager etc?
[06:36] <slimjimflim> mc44 exactly the same
[06:36] <mc44> slimjimflim: what command are you trying to run?
[06:37] <JonRob> genii: thanks - i'll try the different kernel options
[06:37] <slimjimflim> azureus
[06:37] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: me now (simon)
[06:37] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: I don't run beryl anymore... uh... i'll go look.
[06:37] <CardinalBiggles> "now"?
[06:37] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: I've done chown/chmod 655
[06:37] <psnel> genii: partial success
[06:37] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: thanks man! i need to know :)
[06:37] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, "chown 555" is like two kinds of broken.
[06:37] <maco> Hi folks. How safe it is to upgrade server running 6.10 to 7.4 ?
[06:38] <genii> psnel Able to boot to it finally?
[06:38] <daedra> lol
[06:38] <sepelester> I debootstrapped my fiesty, and for some reason it doesn't ask for a password when I sudo or gksu?
[06:38] <CardinalBiggles> maco, Make a backup, as always.
[06:38] <mc44> slimjimflim: ahh, silly java program. doesn't work here doing that either.
[06:38] <LadyNikon> maco: back up your system ..and it should be fine
[06:38] <panfist> can anyone recommend a media player that is light like xmms, but also has a decent library?
[06:38] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: beryl-manager
[06:38] <slimjimflim> yea, i just tried gedit, and it worked
[06:38] <DShepherd> panfist, xmms :-)
[06:38] <maco> CardinalBiggles: its a remote system, i do not have access to it :)
[06:38] <slimjimflim> i wonder if there's a workaround
[06:39] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Just "rm ThatFile" and start over.  "xauth"
[06:39] <nibbs> can i run xwindows remotely from my hosted ubuntu?
[06:39] <psnel> genii: booting to the new kernel gave the same error. I chose an older kernel. It booted, but gave a bunch of errors (deprecated stuff, udev-rule errs, etc.)
[06:39] <panfist> dshepherd heh, so i guess there's a media library for xmms? a google search for "xmms media library" was not very fruitful\
[06:39] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok
[06:39] <triden1> nibbs: What's the client OS?
[06:39] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, xauth should give some output, I think.
[06:39] <DShepherd> panfist, try beep-media-player
[06:39] <maco> nibbs: yes - VNC
[06:39] <A[D] minS^AwaY> Bye all .. c u tomorrow from Dubai .
[06:40] <psnel> genii: synaptic gave "run dpkg --configure -a manually" message
[06:40] <panfist> dshepherd where do i go to find plugins
[06:40] <DShepherd> panminal
[06:40] <DShepherd> oops
[06:40] <maco> Has anybody tried to upgrade server version of Ubuntu from 6.10 to 7.04 ?
[06:40] <DShepherd> sorry.. for beep panfist ?
[06:40] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yep - "creating new authority file..."
[06:40] <rampy> how to install firefox 2.05 in ubuntu 6.06 lts
[06:40] <panfist> dshepherd yeah
[06:40] <genii> psnel OK, so if it did finally come up, you can try to clear out the package manager, then put in a newer kernel comparable to the one you wanted to load
[06:40] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: and a prompt xauth>
[06:41] <genii> !fix apt-get
[06:41] <PriceChild> rampy, what's wrong with the firefox in dapper?
[06:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fix apt-get - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:41] <genii> bah
[06:41] <psnel> genii: how would i replace the kernel?
[06:41] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Okay.  I'm not certain about this part.  control-d.  Then, try "xeyes" to make sure it still works.
[06:41] <DShepherd> panfist, http://bmp.beep-media-player.org/index.php/BMP_Homepage -- here maybe.. not sure though
[06:41] <genii> Anyone remember "unstick aptitude/apt-get" help ?
[06:41] <rampy> how to install latest version of firefox in 6.06 lts
[06:41] <daedra> yeah it works
[06:42] <psnel> genii: there was also an error about invalid line in fstab...
[06:42] <PriceChild> rampy, what's wrong with the firefox in dapper?
[06:42] <DShepherd> panfist, you can check out bmpx too.. its supposed to be the newer version to beep-media-player
[06:42] <maco> LadyNikon: have you tried to upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 ?
[06:42] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, now, "ssh -X localhost xeyes"
[06:42] <zmeiat_joro> what's the first thing to check if sound suddenly stops working
[06:42] <genii> psnel Well, first you should make sure your package manager is good. lag.. do you remember invalid line in fstab? Maybe it is the one I said to remove, where you echoed it from knoppix before
[06:42] <panfist> dshepherd yeah screw that, bmpx uses 5x the amount of ram when it starts and of xmms and keeps going up
[06:42] <rampy> maco:  how can one upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04 like winows?
[06:42] <Prendy> Hi
[06:43] <DShepherd> panfist, oh... ok
[06:43] <CardinalBiggles> maco, It's never ever been done.  Sorry.  :P
[06:43] <Prendy> Ok
[06:43] <pilotlg747> sorry i cant find the right setting do swap the way that my mouse wheel works
[06:43] <maco> rampy: what do you mean?
[06:43] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:43] <panfist> dshepherd i was thinking about trying out xmms2 but it's still early in development
[06:43] <kshahnjd> MTA=Postfix, MDA=Dovecot, and I need both?
[06:43] <maco> CardinalBiggles: its probably not ery recomended
[06:43] <Prendy> I'm just wondering how can I have XP and Ubuntu and choose which onw I want at start-up?
[06:43] <genii> psnel: eg:   root@1[knoppix] # cat /mnt/hdc1/etc/fstab
[06:43] <rampy> maco:  i mean can one upgrade from 6.06lts to 7.04 ..i have 6.06 lts installed in my laptop
[06:43] <DShepherd> panfist, well it may not be as light as xmms though.. but hey.. give it a go
[06:44] <eBoxNet> Prendy: try the installer
[06:44] <psnel> genii:i removed that one
[06:44] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: WHAT!? xauth _says_ its created a new .Xauthority but when I ls -la for it nothings there
[06:44] <triden1> Prendy: When you install ubuntu, you can choose at startup what you want.
[06:44] <dyrne> Prendy: ubuntu does that by default if you make sure you install xp first then ubuntu. rule of thumb.. always give linux the last word
[06:44] <gemidjy> does the Live CD of Ubuntu, have syslinux or GRUB for booting (the live cd, not installed ubuntu) ?
[06:44] <psnel> genii:cant see anything wrong with it
[06:44] <genii> psnel Good, then it's likely one of those others to do with hdb
[06:44] <rampy> maco:   i also want to know how can one install firefox 2.05 ...i don;t see in the repositary
[06:44] <CardinalBiggles> maco, It's done often.  You should be asking "how do I make a backup" instead of asking the same question over and over.
[06:44] <kshahnjd> gemidjy:yes
[06:44] <maco> rampy: well I do have 6.10 on the server however I would like to move to 7.04 but it is kind of critical server so Im asking if its worth to upgrade :)
[06:44] <kshahnjd> MTA=Postfix, MDA=Dovecot, and I need both?
[06:44] <Prendy> Oh, ok thanks.
[06:44] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: yes?? I asked dual question
[06:45] <CardinalBiggles> maco, if you don't have a very good reason, don't do it.
[06:45] <Prendy> I might try to install ubuntu with my crappy connection maybe tommorow if I get the chance :P
[06:45] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: syslinux or GRUB
[06:45] <kshahnjd> gem:Grub
[06:45] <maco> CardinalBiggles: excellent, thanks for talking me out of it :)
[06:45] <CardinalBiggles> My pleasure.
[06:45] <Prendy> Is there a way to download a smaller file and get the iso?
[06:45] <s-ndh-c> hey ppl
[06:45] <grimboy_uk> When starting jackd from qjackctl with the configuration outlined on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/QuickTips I get http://pastebin.ca/630939 Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[06:45] <mzanfardino> I'm preparing to install ubuntu on a new server and I don't know for sure whether or not it's got a 32 or 64 bit processor.  Is there a utility that I can run froma liveCD that will tell me?
[06:45] <triden1> !hi | s-ndh-c
[06:45] <ubotu> s-ndh-c: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:46] <genii> psnel You might want to comment out those 2 lines that start: LABEL=backup1 and LABEL=backup2
[06:46] <maco> mzanfardino: look into /proc/cpuinfo
[06:46] <s-ndh-c> how do i prevent that x11 loads the nvidia.ko from restricted-modules instead of the one i installed manualy?
[06:46] <dyrne> mzanfardino: unless you have a need for 64 bit. go with 32 regardless of proc type
[06:46] <slimjimflim> does anybody know how to run a java program in the background?
[06:46] <s-ndh-c> it allways loads the wrong one
[06:46] <panfist> mzanfardino if youre not even sure i would say use the 32bit install...it will always work and the 64 bit software is rarely worth the trouble
[06:46] <triden1> mzanfardino: IFyou don't know, 90% chance it's a 32... but...
[06:46] <rampy> triden1:  finally my wpa works ...do u know how to install firefox 2 in 6.06
[06:46] <triden1> rampy: Try searching for firefox 2 .deb.
[06:46] <joules> hey guys .. so i found out kde was not for me ... i had it on ubuntu i uninstalled it but somehow my amarok is still showing the mac-style bar anyone knows how to fix this?
[06:46] <genii> !blacklist
[06:46] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[06:46] <dyrne> mzanfardino: though on a dedicated server i guess id go with 64bit
[06:46] <mzanfardino> thank you.  I would generally steer toward 32bit, but the machine will be running as a virtualization server and I'd like to take advantage of the 8gb ram
[06:46] <gemidjy> kshahnjd: and why not syslinux just as every other distro? :) (just curious)
[06:47] <grimboy_uk> slimjimflim, Not quite sure what you mean but maybe "java app.jar &"?
[06:47] <DShepherd> panfist, http://audacious.nenolod.net/Main_Page -- check out that one too
[06:47] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: you there?
[06:48] <Computa_mike> hi - back again - trying to get multi head working on ubuntu 7.04 - tried big desktop - don't work... Tried xinerama that don't work  - the ATI drivers (restricted) also fails to work - I have tried manually editin my xorg.conf file to within an inch of it's life - anyone got any ideas?
[06:48] <triden1> !ati | Computa_mike
[06:48] <ubotu> Computa_mike: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:48] <psnel> genii: the others are on hda... hdb is cdrom. theres an err in /var/log/messages about hdb
[06:48] <zmeiat_joro> guys, really: sound stopped working and when i installed a gadget to control it from the taskbar all devices were muted
[06:48] <slimjimflim> grimboy_uk, that's what i've been trying, but it doesn't work...trying to open azureus....i did the same w/ gedit successfully
[06:49] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I'm here.
[06:49] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Are you switching users, or sudo'ing or something?
[06:49] <genii> psnel Is your cdrom the slave drive on the main IDE channel? or did you move it also now to be slave on second IDE?
[06:50] <psnel> genii: primary slave
[06:50] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, $ ls -la $HOME |grep Xaut
[06:50] <s-ndh-c> so does someone know howto prevent x11 from loading the wrong nvidia.ko?
[06:50] <genii> psnel then hdb is correct
[06:50] <Pici> s-ndh-c: Blacklist
[06:50] <Pici> !blacklist | s-ndh-c
[06:50] <ubotu> s-ndh-c: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[06:50] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: no - but this might help - typing help at the "xauth>" prompt says that CTRL+D'ing out aborts changes and deletes .Xauthority
[06:50] <slimjimflim> grimboy_uk, oh, nm...i just got it. it was just lagging a bit. thanks though
[06:50] <s-ndh-c> its very ugly to have to logon on console and remove the wrong module and load the right one using insmod
[06:50] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Huh.
[06:51] <pc22> where can i find list repositories?
[06:51] <s-ndh-c> Pici: that wont work, i want nvidia but it loads the wrong one
[06:51] <dumbalien> RAID hardware question... ANy takers?
[06:51] <Pici> s-ndh-c: So, blacklist the 'wrong one;
[06:51] <BlackGhos> I get an error when mounting mu cdrom I get a Cannot Mount Volume " Invalid Mount Option wehn trying to mount "UDF Volume " Any help ???
[06:51] <triden1> !reoi | pc22
[06:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about reoi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:51] <CardinalBiggles> s-ndh-c, Make a backup and "$ dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[06:52] <Computa_mike> yeah - tried installing the ati drivers - i have them as an option under system,  administration , restricted drivers manager , ATI Accelerated  graphics driver - i tried enabling that and thenX doesn't work - i have to restore the xorg.conf
[06:52] <triden1> !repo | pc22
[06:52] <ubotu> pc22: 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
[06:52] <s-ndh-c> Pici: i have two nvidia.ko one from restricted-modules and one i installed manualy, dont think blacklisting would work for that
[06:52] <s-ndh-c> or am i wrong?
[06:52] <hdh> BlackGhos: see the end of the output of dmesg for a hint
[06:52] <CardinalBiggles> ^  sudo in there.
[06:52] <pc22> thanls
[06:52] <BlackGhos> k
[06:52] <triden1> Computa_mike: Did you make a backup?
[06:52] <Pici> s-ndh-c: I'm pretty sure blacklisting works for all modules
[06:52] <genii> psnel Ayhow, to find installation candidates for a newer kernel image, use: sudo apt-cache search linux-image|grep 386|more
[06:52] <psnel> genii: can't locate boot log /var/log/boot is from yesterday??
[06:52] <genii> psnel Assuming your package manager is OK
[06:53] <s-ndh-c> Pici: but it only works on module names or am i wrong? i mean the wrong is named nvidia and the right one too
[06:53] <s-ndh-c> never seen any blacklist entries with full path to the module
[06:53] <genii> psnel I wouldn't worry about the /var/log/boot much at this point
[06:53] <dumbalien> how good is software RAID vs. Cheap RAID card
[06:54] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, I'm not at my linux box, or I could help more with xauth.  Try logging out and loggint back in.  That should generate a new one.  Or, read the man page.
[06:54] <Pici> s-ndh-c: I'm sorry, I'm not sure :/
[06:54] <psnel> genii: kernel candidate: "linux-image-2.6.20-15-386 - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.20 on i386"
[06:54] <BlackGhos> hdh: I looked at dmesg and it says UDF-fs No filesystem found...
[06:54] <s-ndh-c> ok
[06:54] <s-ndh-c> :)
[06:54] <JohnsonsWhatever> How do I open a Limewire.deb file? How do I install LimeWire?
[06:54] <xpoint> http://xkcd.com/178/
[06:54] <Computa_mike> yeah - i made a backup of xorg.conf - i then restored it when i wasn't able to use the ati drivers
[06:54] <Computa_mike> currently i am using the vesa drivers
[06:54] <Pici> xpoint: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:55] <hdh> BlackGhos: so it's likely that the media isn't formatted in udf
[06:55] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: ok - thanks for the help by the way :)
[06:55] <BlackGhos>  Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
[06:55] <genii> psnel Good, then you could use apt-get install linux-image-2.6.20-15-386         and you will have the newer kernel which may resolve all that udev stuff
[06:55] <genii> psnel Maybe use sudo with that btw
[06:55] <IdleOne> !frostwire | JohnsonsWhatever
[06:55] <ubotu> JohnsonsWhatever: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[06:55] <BlackGhos> I can open it on my Xp box
[06:55] <xpoint> JohnsonsWhatever, try "sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella"
[06:55] <psnel> genii:cool. I hope so. (sudo. ok)
[06:55] <panfist> dshepherd i could not find media libraries for audacious or beep
[06:56] <hdh> BlackGhos: I know of only udf and ISO-6990, maybe a corrupted disc?
[06:56] <dumbalien> how good is software RAID vs. Cheap RAID card
[06:56] <BlackGhos> I can open it on my Xp box
[06:56] <rampy> which are good graphical desktop options for ubuntu
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> xpoint: I will, thanks.
[06:56] <eBoxNet> try another cd?
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> Ubuntu Studio, anyone try'd it? Is it goood?
[06:56] <JohnsonsWhatever> http://ubuntustudio.org/downloads
[06:57] <IdleOne> rampy, gnome kde xfce fluxbox icewm ......
[06:57] <Computa_mike> johnsons - i tried it Sunday - took me ages to install
[06:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: YES! logging out and back in worked
[06:57] <JohnsonsWhatever> Computa_mike, why?
[06:57] <Computa_mike> primarily I got a screwed up partition system on my hdd - i would imagine if your partitions were 'normal' it would be fine
[06:57] <coNP> my feisty box says no plugins available to play DVDs
[06:57] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: have a toffee
[06:57] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, It was your Xauth file.  I bet you didn't own it or something.
[06:57] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, #ubuntu-studio please.
[06:57] <coNP> can you please help me what to install?
[06:57] <genii> rampy xfce is pretty fast and not bad window manager that comes with xubuntu install
[06:57] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: thanks
[06:58] <Computa_mike> and jack seems very difficult to configure (for a noob)
[06:58] <IdleOne> !dvd | coNP
[06:58] <ubotu> coNP: 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
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, It could happen if you sudo or something and mess with X from a different user (like root).
[06:58] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: yeah I do that a lot
[06:58] <daedra> CardinalBiggles: thanks anyway
[06:58] <Computa_mike> i'll try multi head again tomorrow - i got a colleague working on it also - see ya later all
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Well, be careful with xauth in the future.
[06:58] <coNP> thanks IdleOne
[06:58] <CardinalBiggles> daedra, Cheers, and good luck.
[06:59] <psnel> genii: btx that hdb err (dmesg) was "[17179602.868000]  hdb: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }"... "[17179602.868000]  ide: failed opcode was: unknown" ... "[17179602.868000]  cdrom: failed setting lba address space" (sorry for flood)
[06:59] <coNP> it is a real shame feisty cannot play DVDs out-of-the-box
[06:59] <IdleOne> coNP, it can but for legal reason it doesnt
[06:59] <coNP> sure, it is still a problem
[06:59] <coNP> as if it were illegal to play a DVD you bought in the nearest store
[07:00] <dumbalien> anyone use a PCI SATA card with linux software RAID
[07:00] <genii> psnel: Hmm. OK. I'm not entirely sure what to make of that. Main thing right now i'm working on is that your HD is booting properly and not groaning
[07:00] <DShepherd> panfist, what do you mean? i just install audacious.. and it is playing fine
[07:01] <psnel> genii:i agree
[07:02] <psnel> genii:maybe it'l be fine after dpkg -configure -a (still working) then I can revert to the upgraded fstab
[07:03] <psnel> genii: changing fstab did not solve it... it's to do with the kernel
[07:03] <panfist> dshepherd i want a plugin (or it could be built in) to will scan my hard drives/network drives for songs and let me search/browse within the player
[07:03] <panfist> dshepherd i want the lightest and most basic player that lets me sort my library by metadata
[07:04] <genii> dumbalien i have a few boxes using Promise SATA300 TX4 controllers (non-RAID types) with software raid and it works fine
[07:04] <DShepherd> panfist, exaile maybe then? have you tried rhythmbox?
[07:04] <psnel> genii:something i could've done this morning (9am!!) it is now 19:03 pm .. 10 hrs. geesh
[07:04] <ninix> hi. is it possible to solve the problem of the SQUAEW MOUSE with my ATI dual screen monitor (lcd + tv) with xinerama ?
[07:04] <DShepherd> panfist, http://www.exaile.org/ -- maybe exaile is what you would like..
[07:04] <CardinalBiggles> ninix, What?
[07:05] <panfist> dshepherd i dont remember which was which, but one of them was using 40 megs of ram, and the other was using 15 megs, and it launched a python or perl process or something that was using another 15
[07:05] <ninix> *SQUARE mouse.
[07:05] <genii> psnel It's been a while, i know :)
[07:05] <genii> work, AFK 2-3 minutes
[07:05] <CardinalBiggles> Ah, that helps, some.  Enlighten us, what does it mean?
[07:05] <psnel> genii: hey thanks for your time. really
[07:05] <panfist> dshepherd was that memory usage reported actually shared? anyway, i only have 190 megs of ram so I can't really spare 30 for a media player
[07:06] <yoyo> hi all
[07:06] <DShepherd> panfist, ok
[07:06] <ninix> CardinalBiggles: 2 mins, i gonna make a screen shot
[07:06] <CardinalBiggles> panfist, most libraries and such are shared with others, I bet.
[07:06] <sebrock> Please anyone, I set the dir to 777 but I still cant upload anything... proftpd is a b*tch to configure
[07:06] <ninix> emm no mouse in printscreen.. nevermind
[07:06] <yoyo> ninix plop
[07:06] <CardinalBiggles> ninix, So, it's a visual problem on the screen, not a hardware problem?  Something to do with th epointer?
[07:07] <rampy> how can i play real player in firefox
[07:07] <rafaelscj> Who know an easy-to-use proxy server?
[07:07] <rampy> i was able to download and play real player
[07:07] <XLV> ninix, if your problem is that the cursor is surrounded by a square, its most likely hardware cursor support, toggle it, in xorg.conf
[07:07] <ninix> yeah it's only that. my mouse is replaced by a ugly square when i move my mouse on my TV
[07:07] <baastrup> hey there, im looking for a way to convert movies to my ipod, can anyone help?
[07:07] <JC_Denton_> has anyone gotten battlefield 1942 to work with cedega? experiencing crashing issues when loading maps
[07:07] <rampy> but can't make it work with firefox
[07:07] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, PRoxy of what?  HTTP?  Animal noises?  DNS?  Odors?
[07:08] <panfist> cardinalbiggles i mean when exaile (or rhythmbox maybe, cant remember) reported 15, and python was also using 15 megs, were those the same 15 megabytes? or were they using 30 together
[07:08] <ninix> XLV: toggle what ?
[07:08] <tRSS> how can I add domain users to local linux groups?
[07:08] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, some like squid
[07:08] <rampy> real player to work with firefox?
[07:08] <alesan> hi
[07:08] <genii> psnel Back. No problem with the helping, it is the troubleshooting part that always takes all the time
[07:09] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, to share
[07:09] <rampy> how do one change the desktop look to gnome..i downloaded but nothing happened?
[07:09] <CardinalBiggles> panfist, Hrm.  It's notoriously hard to see what is new.  I suggest you use them and notice whether it's causing a problem.
[07:09] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Ah, HTTP, then?  Or, everything, all Internet access?
[07:09] <XLV> ninix, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/21545
[07:09] <alesan> I am writing an application that needs to be run as root (it interacts with kernel etc). right now I must run it with sudo in front of it, how to make that iot asks for the passowrd (and the screen gets gray etc)?
[07:10] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, yes
[07:10] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, http
[07:10] <XLV> ninix, Option "SWcursor" "true" is what you need to add to xorg.conf
[07:10] <alesan> I mean when selected from the menu
[07:10] <CardinalBiggles> Not a yes/no question.  Okay, I think you want to look for "masquerading".
[07:10] <panfist> hey everyone, one question...kde or gnome? go!
[07:10] <ninix> XLV: nice, i go try it.
[07:10] <alesan> pan KDE
[07:11] <genii> panfist thats more of an #offtopic
[07:11] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Is it that you have a linux machine that sits between other machines and the 'net?
[07:11] <alesan> panfist KDE
[07:11] <Purfier> panfist gnome;)
[07:11] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, I want to share my intenet connection
[07:11] <djm62> could anyone tell me a good way to put my computer to sleep and have it wake up at the same time I want to wake up, and make a loud noise?  Preferably a Gnome tool....
[07:11] <psnel> genii: when I'm versed enough in the intricacies of linux I'll come help ppl tourbleshoot too :)
[07:12] <CardinalBiggles> rafaelscj, Very good.  Go search for "iptables masquerading"
[07:12] <genii> psnel: Thats the idea
[07:12] <blairellis> Just as an FYI the place to download the REAL PLAYER package has been removed from your DVD ubotu help file FAQ. Not sure who takes care of that, but the link is broken and I can't find it within the ftp site either.
[07:12] <rafaelscj> CardinalBiggles, okay, tnks
[07:12] <panfist> it's not really off topic, im trying to decide which dist to install...i couldn't get feisty live, feisty alternate, edgy live, dapper live CDs to install, I finally got PXE to boot and now the choice is on the screen...ku, xu, or ubuntu?
[07:13] <rampy> i downloaded gnome  desktop look for debian but it does now change the desktop look
[07:13] <genii> panfist kubuntu is most windows-like, ubuntu (gnome) is classic and xubuntu (xfce) is for light resource use
[07:13] <seanoh> Hi, i'm asking this here because I couldn't find a designated help channel for OpenOffice.  Does anyone know if there's a color picker in Impress?  As in the kind that grabs the color from somewhere in the current presentation?
[07:14] <panfist> genii i notice that KDE uses the most resources, is it "worth" it?
[07:14] <blairellis> If a computer is say 8 hours stable with Orthos under XP is it safe to assume that it would be 100% stable within Ubuntu?
[07:14] <m3nt0r> hello. i want to compila php with imap on ubuntu. what package do i need to get the missing imap devel headers?
[07:14] <rampy> can anyone help me to change the look of debain to gnome?
[07:14] <genii> panfist: If you want a gui with a Windows sort of metaphor, it is a good wayy to transition.
[07:14] <JohnsonsWhatever> Shit! I just installed this from ----> http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon <--- How do I delete everything I just installed!??! Don't want it!!!
[07:15] <ikonia> JohnsonsWhatever: there is NO need for that language
[07:15] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, watch the language please *looks*
[07:15] <JohnsonsWhatever> wops! sorry guys
[07:15] <angell> Hello
[07:15] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, didn't you make a note of what it installed/updated/
[07:15] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: I did what it says on that page.
[07:15] <panfist> genii the initial configuration of any dist doesn't really apply, because i will tear apart the desktop and customize it the way i want it, so the quesiton is which is nicer to configure and has more options
[07:15] <Jkessler> ikonia's right.
[07:16] <rampy> anyone to help to convert debain look into gnome ?
[07:16] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: So I guess yeah
[07:16] <Jkessler> poop is more fun to say anyway
[07:16] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, So uninstall/downgrade what you saw being changed
[07:16] <ikonia> rampy: debian look ?
[07:16] <ninix> XLV: ur right. but.... the quality is very bad of my mouse now. (visually)
[07:16] <genii> panfist Nicer to configure- KDE more options-Gnome
[07:17] <rampy> ikonia:  i downloaded the gnome desktop environment  for the 6.06 lts , so that desktop looks like gnome
[07:17] <tRSS> how can I add domain users to local linux groups?
[07:17] <ikonia> rampy: the desktop "IS" gnome
[07:17] <JohnsonsWhatever> PriceChild: In the Synapic organise thingy?
[07:17] <PriceChild> JohnsonsWhatever, however you want.
[07:18] <angell> I want to install my display driver on unbuntu 4.07
[07:18] <XLV> ninix, how you mean bad quality? also whats the gfx card, make and model, and what drivers do you use, and what version of ubuntu?
[07:18] <angell> the resolution is not as high as it is in vista
[07:18] <PriceChild> angell, 7.04 ?
[07:18] <PriceChild> angell, and it is ubuntu, not unbuntu
[07:18] <XLV> !restricted > angell
[07:18] <ninix> XLV: festy, ati 9800XT , fglrx
[07:18] <ninix> but....
[07:19] <angell> :D
[07:19] <LoCo> Can someone help with a wierd networking problem?
[07:19] <ninix> XLV:
[07:19] <ninix> While the screen beneath (anywhere horizontally in line with) the mouse cursor
[07:19] <ninix> is redrawn, the display within this area glitches: horizontal lines appear that
[07:19] <ninix> seem to be the screen drawn in the wrong location.
[07:19] <PriceChild> angell, is your desired resolution not listed in system > preferences> screen resolution ?
[07:19] <ninix> sorry.
[07:19] <ninix> XLV: the bug is not solved
[07:19] <angell> correct
[07:20] <LoCo> I can connect to my wireless network and ping websites and etc, but for some reason, I can't use a browser and go to those sites, any ideas??
[07:20] <XLV> angell, in the link i pasted theres a link about fixing resolutions, and reconfiguring xorg
[07:20] <angell> priceChild, it only goes to 1280x768, while my monitor and driver can handle 1400x900ish
[07:20] <angell> k thank
[07:20] <dinah_ronja> hi
[07:20] <dinah_ronja> hello
[07:20] <dinah_ronja> how are you
[07:21] <lostMyMarbles> Is there a way to install all needed mono apps?
[07:21] <RxDx> i have a windows xp installed on /dev/sda1. how can i run this windows with a virtual machine (without install windows again)?
[07:21] <billabong> hi all
[07:21] <_KnightHunter_> im a new user, i ended up into the console, i did "x" the screen goes black and refreshes the console again, im using irssi right now and  can use lynx and other things, but why wont x start
[07:21] <CardinalBiggles> lostMyMarbles, What does "needed" mean?
[07:22] <billabong> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30937/ what is the solution of this problem? who can help me?
[07:22] <PriceChild> RxDx, that's not a very easy thing to do... I would suggest you create a new virtual machine.
[07:22] <RxDx> PriceChild, omg.. ill lost more space on my hd =/
[07:22] <_KnightHunter_> hmm
[07:23] <billabong> pls help me :(
[07:23] <LoCo> networking guys?
[07:23] <PriceChild> RxDx, I think it'll be worth it compared to the problems you could cause trying what you want... making it unbootable etc.
[07:24] <Pilana> Anyone know if it's possible to get cdrom games made for windows to work on linux?
[07:24] <genii> _KnightHunter_: Do you know the make and model of your video card?
[07:24] <PriceChild> Pilana, you might want to research wine and cedega
[07:24] <RxDx> PriceChild, sure.. really tnx dude :)
[07:24] <genii> Bah, just missed him
[07:24] <LadySerena> I have a PHP project I'm working on, and I just installed it on my laptop so I can work on it anywhere ..... well, I need to use IPv6 to access it
[07:24] <PriceChild> RxDx, if you want to use a windows in virtual, and real... then you need two seperate hardware profiles installed and it can go seriously wrong :)
[07:25] <LadySerena> so I put ::1 projectname.com into my /etc/hosts ...... even after a reboot, its not working
[07:25] <Pilana> PriceChild: thanks
[07:25] <mray> is there a way to re-write the fstab automatically (repeating the dection algorythms of the installer)?
[07:25] <rolfen> i dont like either wine or cedega
[07:25] <rolfen> better dual boot in windows
[07:25] <LadySerena> it still says 'Unknown host' when I go to projectname.com in Konq
[07:25] <Modulator> how do I get ubuntu to recognize that i have dual monitors?
[07:26] <ikonia> LadySerena: you need to set the apache listen address to be IPV6
[07:26] <LadySerena> lighttpd is set to use ipv6
[07:26] <ikonia> Modulator: you need to use nvidia "twinview" or xinerama
[07:26] <daedra> how do I create a root account on Ubuntu (I need to)
[07:26] <LadySerena> but its not resolving, which isn't a server issue
[07:26] <PriceChild> daedra, you don't need to.
[07:26] <ikonia> daedra: you don't need to
[07:26] <PriceChild> daedra, why do you think you need to?
[07:26] <mray> Modulator: you need to run the original drivers from nvidia
[07:26] <ikonia> mray: no he doesn't
[07:26] <xtknight> !root | daedra
[07:26] <ubotu> daedra: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:27] <daedra> PriceChild: I am attempting to tunnel into my pc from a remote location, and accessing it remotely has me type in the root password
[07:27] <ikonia> daedra: you have it setup wrong then
[07:27] <PriceChild> daedra, I'd advise strongly against that... :)
[07:27] <PriceChild> daedra, you're using ssh right? With openssh-server installed?
[07:28] <LadySerena> I can put http://[::1] / in my address bar and it works, but the line "::1 projectname.com" in my hosts file isn't working
[07:28] <daedra> PriceChild: I use ssh -L 5902:localhost:5901 serveraddress
[07:28] <_paul-uk> i'm having a problem with xserver on ubuntu server edition. I've tried running the auto configurer, and editing the file manually but it still always outputs at 720 x 400
[07:28] <daedra> PriceChild: i'm using sshd
[07:28] <_paul-uk> even though that resolution isn't in the xorg.conf
[07:28] <ikonia> LadySerena: is apache set to listen on that name ?
[07:28] <ikonia> LadySerena: not apache your web server
[07:28] <_paul-uk> and obv my monitor doesn't support that res
[07:28] <triden1> !x | _paul-uk
[07:28] <ubotu> _paul-uk: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:28] <PriceChild> daedra, use the -l option to choose your username
[07:28] <LadySerena> ikonia, it doesn't matter, it'll listen on any  name
[07:28] <daedra> PriceChild: oh cool
[07:28] <PriceChild> daedra, so for example ssh -L 5902:localhost:5901 serveraddress -l <your chosen username>
[07:29] <LadySerena> ikonia, the problem is the system isn't resolving projectname.com to ::1
[07:29] <daedra> PriceChild: that solves EVERYTHING thanks
[07:29] <ikonia> LadySerena: can you ping projectname.com ?
[07:29] <TheCreationist> Is there any way to move free space from partition #4 to partition #1 without reformatting everything?
[07:29] <PriceChild> daedra, the only time you should ever use root/sudo is for system administration...
[07:29] <LadySerena> no, even ping says "unknown host"
[07:29] <ikonia> TheCreationist: depends - are there any partitions in between it, are there any extended partitions
[07:29] <PriceChild> daedra, if you are just using computers and think you need sudo then it is broken
[07:29] <panfist> so i just did a net install of feisty over the network and it booted to the command line...how do i start gnome
[07:29] <ikonia> panfist: what version of ubuntu did you install ?
[07:30] <triden1> panfist: startx
[07:30] <panfist> 7.04 ubuntu
[07:30] <daedra> PriceChild: thanks - some good advice
[07:30] <ikonia> panfist: did you install gnome ?
[07:30] <panfist> ikonia i did a default install of ubuntu thats supposed to include gnome right?
[07:30] <tuomopr> Hi, Howto update my xubuntu's xfce4 to latest 4.4.1 without re-installing everything?
[07:30] <ikonia> panfist: did you install the server or the desktop ?
[07:30] <panfist> triden1 it says the command is not found
[07:30] <genii> ikonia 7.04 ubuntu sounds like Gnome to me :)
[07:30] <ikonia> tuomopr: apt-get upgrade
[07:30] <panfist> ikonia desktop
[07:30] <TheCreationist> ikonia: I have a total of 4 partitions, actually.   1) Windows XP  2) Linux Root  3) Linux Swap  4) Linux Home
[07:31] <triden1> panfist: Did you install the server edition?
[07:31] <TheCreationist> ikonia: I believe I set them all up as Primary partitions.
[07:31] <ikonia> panfist: then it should start automaticlly
[07:31] <panfist> tridenl  i think i installed desktop, how can i check
[07:31] <ikonia> TheCreationist: you should be able to
[07:31] <ikonia> panfist: you should know
[07:31] <triden1> panfist: try apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:32] <panfist> ikonia what do you mean i should know, im 100% sure i installed desktop but something is obviously wrong because gnome didnt start and startx says its not installed
[07:32] <TheCreationist> ikonia: Seems like it would need to move all the partitions in order to do that, though, you know?
[07:32] <ikonia> panfist: ok - so your %100 - you don't need to check
[07:32] <bullgard4> /usr/share/doc/tracker-search-tool/README.gz section 'Tracker And Nautilus Search' writes: "Once you have installed Tracker and have some indexed contents, you should now compile Nautilus which should auto detect that tracker is installed and automatically compile in tracker support." How can I do this Nautilus compilation?
[07:32] <ikonia> TheCreationist: that sounds about right
[07:33] <LadySerena> LSerena is me, just on the laptop
[07:33] <LoCo> I can connect to my wireless network and ping websites and etc, but for some reason, I can't use a browser and go to those sites, any ideas??
[07:33] <LadySerena> battery is running low
[07:33] <panfist> ikonia well, if youve ever taken a psychology class you would know that even when people seem sure their memories can be wrong...so in the interest of being thorough, complete, how do i check if i installed server or desktop
[07:33] <triden1> !wifi > triden1
[07:33] <ikonia> panfist: look at the cd you used to create the image
[07:34] <Modulator> when I installed ubuntu there was no option to enable a root user... or a password... anyone know who I enable root?
[07:34] <Modulator> who = how
[07:34] <ansque> i have Ubuntu7.04, Wine and FreeTrain (game for windows). When I try emulate this game i have this: "install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables
[07:34] <ansque> ". What i should do?
[07:34] <ikonia> Modulator: you don't
[07:34] <Modulator> no root user?
[07:34] <Modulator> why not?
[07:34] <ikonia> Modulator: no, use sudo
[07:34] <PriceChild> !sudo | Modulator
[07:34] <Modulator> sudo su
[07:34] <ubotu> Modulator: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:34] <triden1> !root | Modulator
[07:34] <ubotu> Modulator: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:34] <ikonia> Modulator: no - just sudo command
[07:34] <ikonia> not sudo su
[07:34] <triden1> ... that's a tie PriceChild.
[07:34] <panfist> ikonia can you read? it's a network install. all youve done is ask me questions about what i installed when i said exactly what i thought i installed in my very first statement.
[07:35] <llllllll> If I install something, then go to install it again, will it overwrite what was originally done, or will I be using up twice the space on my disk?
[07:35] <Modulator> oooooook
[07:35] <DjViper> Modulator: just do sudo command
[07:35] <ikonia> panfist: of course I can read, but you must have used a cd to create the pxeimage ?
[07:35] <ansque> ". Someone can help me?
[07:35] <PriceChild> llllllll, if they are the same package names it will uninstall the first one and install the next one
[07:35] <PriceChild> llllllll, if you've for example... installed from source then isntalling a package, it will just overwrite seen as the names are the same
[07:35] <triden1> ansque: Try googling mono and use the windows installer through wine?
[07:35] <dromer> hi all, I've been having this for a while now: firefox craseh heavily (I close with $ sude killall firefox-bin), then, when I try to start firefox again, I get: Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[07:35] <genii> ikonia: I'm 99% sure he is installing stock Feisty Ubuntu
[07:35] <DjViper> ansque: get mono (.net stuff)
[07:36] <ikonia> genii: cool, what makes you so confident ?
[07:36] <ansque> sudo apt-get install mono? I do that
[07:36] <ansque> but still i have this comunicat
[07:36] <panfist> ikonia feisty 7.04 ubuntu desktop, but regardless of which you use, it asks you in the install what you want to install
[07:36] <triden1> ansque: No, downloading a windows installer for mono.
[07:36] <PriceChild> dromer, you killall firefox?
[07:36] <genii> ikonia: When he gave the list of options he was preesented with to install, no server version was given
[07:36] <ikonia> panfist: ok - so you did use the desktop
[07:36] <PriceChild> dromer, or it "crashes" then you killall it?
[07:36] <ikonia> genii: that just contradicts what he jsut said
[07:36] <ikonia> genii: but fair enough
[07:37] <ikonia> panfist: install gnome then is the best option
[07:37] <Modulator> sudo su works...
[07:37] <llllllll> Ok, thanks PriceChild
[07:37] <ikonia> Modulator: but don't do it
[07:37] <Modulator> why not?
[07:37] <ansque> windows installer for mono? maybe you give me link or something?
[07:37] <triden1> panfist: Does anything happen when you run startx other than it saying command not found.
[07:37] <ikonia> Modulator: because your not meant to
[07:37] <Modulator> lol
[07:37] <DjViper> ansque: you need mono in wine, google it
[07:37] <Modulator> but I wanna!
[07:37] <dromer> PriceChild: no, it crashes first, then I killall it
[07:37] <ikonia> Modulator: do what you want then
[07:37] <ikonia> Modulator: but don't come crying in here
[07:37] <neverblue> dromer, remove/reinstall it? (while removing your .mozilla/firefox dir)
[07:37] <ansque> ok
[07:37] <martyyyr> How do I set up smb.conf so that the shares are listed in the client's network list?
[07:38] <DjViper> martyyyr: just reboot, works for me
[07:38] <LSerena> why does "http://[::1] /" work, but "http://projectname.com/" does not work even though there's a line in my /etc/hosts that looks like "::1 projectname.com"
[07:38] <ansque> i must waiting beacuse this is ~50MB :/
[07:38] <panfist> tridenl i'm doing a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:38] <robert__> bnc01.infinity-gamehosting.net 9000
[07:38] <martyyyr> DjViper reboot what? the server or the client
[07:38] <martyyyr> ?
[07:38] <triden1> panfist: Yeah, it appears that your network install missed some programs... namely... X.
[07:39] <DjViper> martyyyr: the server you've shared something on
[07:39] <scoobydoo28139> gksu/etc/x11/xorg.conf=no such directory y?
[07:39] <martyyyr> DjViper: Wouldn't restarting samba be enough?
[07:39] <triden1> scoobydoo28139: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:39] <DjViper> martyyyr: probably
[07:39] <triden1> scoobydoo28139: the first X has to be a capital.
[07:39] <scoobydoo28139> oh
[07:40] <scoobydoo28139> i forgot sesative to caps
[07:40] <dromer> neverblue: dude, I'm not going to remove my .mozilla/firefox
[07:40] <martyyyr> DjViper: Well, the shares don't show up...
[07:40] <dromer> neverblue: or do you mean backup ?
[07:40] <genii> ikonia: No X = looks like server version after all
[07:40] <deadlyallance307> what codec do i need to play a .m4a file
[07:40] <ikonia> genii: exactly !
[07:40] <neverblue> dromer, answer the question?
[07:41] <triden1> !codecs | deadlyallance307
[07:41] <scoobydoo28139> still no such directory.....
[07:41] <ubotu> deadlyallance307: 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
[07:41] <scoobydoo28139> i am sooooooooo frustrated
[07:41] <dumbalien> genii:would it be better to use sata card in pci slot 33mhz or ide ata-100
[07:41] <OhMyAudi> Hi all.  I'm looking for a feature rich network monitoring client (preferably open source) with a GUI.  Any advice???
[07:41] <dromer> neverblue: why should I remove/reinstall it do you think?
[07:41] <_paul-uk> anyone know why xserver would be trying to use 720x400?
[07:42] <neverblue> dromer, want me to keep answering you with questions as well?
[07:42] <genii> dumbalien: This must be some old box if you have 33Mhz PCI slots
[07:42] <triden1> _paul-uk: What kind of graphics card do you have?
[07:42] <_paul-uk> just a standard nvidia based card
[07:42] <dumbalien> a dell dimension 4400, PIII 2ghz
[07:42] <dromer> neverblue: I don't know what you mean
[07:42] <_paul-uk> don't know the exact model
[07:43] <neverblue> dromer, I asked you a question, did you remove/reinstall FF?
[07:43] <_paul-uk> but it should be able to run 1024x768 using vesa
[07:43] <OhMyAudi> Anyone?
[07:43] <dromer> neverblue: no
[07:43] <neverblue> dromer, and I have yet to see an answer
[07:43] <dromer> neverblue: sorry, I thought that you wanted me to do that
[07:43] <neverblue> dromer, maybe that might assist with your issue then
[07:43] <genii> dumbalien: It won't be 33Mhz then :) In this case better with the sata card in the PCI slot than the ata-100 drives for a raid configuration
[07:43] <scoobydoo28139> triden1: you know how to get to xorg.conf to change nv to nvidia?
[07:43] <dumbalien> genii:asked on the forum about RAID card, someone said unless you spend 500 it only software?
[07:44] <XLV> dumbalien, yeah, most cards below 250$ are software raid
[07:44] <triden1> scoobydoo28139: wait, I think I know what you did wrong. Command: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:44] <triden1> scoobydoo28139: I think you didn't run a text editor.
[07:44] <dumbalien> genii:http://support.euro.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim4400/specs.htm#1101572
[07:44] <yeko> _paul-uk have you attempted this......check to make sure your horz and vert sync are set correctly - You should be able to (depends on the color depth)
[07:44] <XLV> dumbalien, but you can find some older pci hardware sata raid used for less
[07:44] <genii> dumbalien: There are hardware raid controllers, or you can just go get a regular hard drive controller that can see 4 drives and set that up with software raid instead. thats what i usually do
[07:44] <tutti> hello im new whit the ubuntu and wondering how can i install world on warcraft on it? :)
[07:44] <scoobydoo28139> you rock
[07:45] <jaime-san> woo gutsy tribe 3 cd works like a charm for me
[07:45] <dromer> neverblue: with "assist" you mean: de/install ff
[07:45] <evildead> hello
[07:45] <jaime-san> i got bored and tried it on my partition
[07:45] <dromer> neverblue: and then I won't lose all my bookmarks if I deinstall ?
[07:45] <neverblue> dromer, have a nice day :)
[07:45] <triden1> tutti: google is your friend there.
[07:45] <dumbalien> XLV: so do i need a sta card or a sata RAID card
[07:45] <jaime-san> can't wait to see what else comes from upcoming releases of it
[07:45] <XLV> dumbalien, though the system will be held back by the pci bandwidth, only 133MB/s, or 266MB/s if your mb and controller support 66mhz/32bit pci
[07:45] <tutti> ok ty try it :P
[07:45] <blairellis> Anyone want to help me get a gnome panel sensor working? (CPU) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v208/blairellis/Computer/Screenshot-10.png It stays at 40* no matter what kind of load put on it
[07:45] <evildead> why smarmontools package depends on postfix ?
[07:46] <neverblue> tutti, look into wine
[07:46] <_paul-uk> says its a nVidia Corporation NV34
[07:46] <scoobydoo28139> oh gedit text editor...
[07:46] <genii> dumbalien: The cost effective way is just a sata drive controller adapter, then use software raid
[07:46] <Yggdrasil> whats the cmd to find out the uuid of a drive ?
[07:46] <scoobydoo28139> dee dee dee me
[07:46] <jaime-san> the only issue is i'm stuck w/ 1028x764 res when my monitor supports 1280 any idea?
[07:46] <dumbalien> genii:sounds good

[07:46] <XLV> dumbalien, if you want to run software raid, then get a sata pci card, and use linux software raid, if you want true hardware raid, get some promise controller, they start at 300$ or so, or then go to 3ware, areca etc they start at 400-500$
[07:46] <zmeiat_joro> is there a music player that is as good as foobar for linux?
[07:47] <dumbalien> genii:so really, i need to upgrade everything
[07:47] <triden1> zmeiat_joro: XMMS might be good.
[07:47] <neverblue> amarok, xmms
[07:47] <blairellis> banshee
[07:47] <spike724> I just found "free the fish"
[07:47] <dromer> wth, now synaptic won't start either
[07:47] <spike724> hehe
[07:47] <panfist> zmeiat_joro xmms is not nearly as good as foobar, its just like winamp 2
[07:47] <yeko> zmeiat_joro I use VLC for everything
[07:47] <XLV> dumbalien, most sata cards claim they do raid, but if they dont have a xor engine on board, its just software raid, so scrap it and use software raid of linux, which is much more flexible
[07:47] <panfist> zmeiat_joro there is no media player in linux like foobar that i have found
[07:47] <dumbalien> XLV:ok, i will stick with the cheaper option as the box is so old
[07:47] <adam__> anyone got winamp working on ubuntu?
[07:47] <XLV> dumbalien, unless you are going to dual boot with windows
[07:48] <scoobydoo28139> what is pastebin address?

[07:48] <zmeiat_joro> yeko: I used to run foobar under wine for a while and then switched to VLC, which is what i was usng for video under windows
[07:48] <jaime-san> yeah, wine but cd burning didn't work
[07:48] <zmeiat_joro> but it's not as good as foobr for music
[07:48] <OhMyAudi> Hi all.  I'm looking for a feature rich network monitoring client (preferably open source) with a GUI.  Any advice???
[07:48] <Yggdrasil> how do i list the uuid of my drives partitions ?
[07:48] <triden1> adam__: Why do you want winamp?
[07:48] <jaime-san> milkdrop lagged horribly
[07:48] <genii> dumbalien: XLV is giving advice that i would just reiterate :)
[07:48] <dumbalien> XLV: does dual booting windows confuse things?
[07:48] <jaime-san> got rid of it and use songbird / rhythmbox
[07:48] <adam__> ive used it for years and like its media library, something xmms apparently doesnt have

[07:49] <XLV> dumbalien, then you'll have to use the raid function of the card, and use dmraid
[07:49] <dumbalien> XLV: ah
[07:49] <evildead> why smarmontools package depends on postfix ?
[07:49] <XLV> dumbalien, theres a solution in any case, dmraid

[07:57] <_paul-uk> it brings up the ubuntu loading screen with the bar that goes accross fine, but then switches to 720x400
[07:57] <ansque> ok, i do that
[07:59] <HairyDude> is it normal for xorg to use 60% memory? (I have 1 GB plus swap)

[08:06] <bulmer> jakeg, i have not, but why would it be any different if it doles out the necessary files?
[08:06] <bulmer> cetienne, what was your command?
[08:06] <cetienne> "./configure" when trying to install rdesktop
[08:06] <elmkd____> is there a thread I could read somewhere that deals with this?
[08:07] <genii> jakeg: Not that i know of. I have an install cluster here which uses a tftpd/pxeboot method

[08:08] <_paul-uk> can anyone help me with my xserver problem?
[08:08] <jakeg> genii: and does it matter that my iso server wouldn't be on a local network with the machine i'm installing onto? e.g. the server i'm installing on is at the host's data centre, my iso server woudl be in my home, connectable via an IP address

[08:11] <jakeg> genii: say i had a computer right here in my house, theoretically then i could put the right kickstart file on it(?) and point it to your install cluster (firewall permitting) and the fact that the greater internet is in between wouldn't cause an issue?
[08:12] <bulmer> cetienne, you have the correct permission to write on that directory?
[08:12] <llllllll> Why is GAIM so interwoven into ubuntu? In order to remove it, apparently I also need to remove the ubuntu-desktop and nautilus-sendto packages. They sound like fairly integral packages. This is like MSN Messenger and windows.
[08:12] <_paul-uk> maybe it's a gdm problem?
[08:12] <genii> jakeg: Since my cluster works on a direct dhcpd server to hand out IP's on an internal range, currently there is no way to use it as a pxe boot server from the internet
[08:12] <nekun> hello people ! I've an ubuntu server with samba running.. and I've anther computer with windows and ubuntu in the same machine.. and I can acces to the server directory.. but.. the users are diferent.. so when I create a file in ubuntu.. I can't delete in windows. any idea ?
[08:12] <Pilana> family: no one in there is answering
[08:12] <Pilana> :(
[08:13] <cetienne> bulmer - I can check however, if I use the sudo command I still get the same error. Would I still need to have the same rights?
[08:13] <jakeg> genii: ok :) but on one of the machines you're installing onto, you don't actually need any local access to it... that's the main thing i'm checking. i don't click 'install' somewhere and then need to phone up my hosting provider and ask them to press enter on a serial console or something
[08:13] <bulmer> cetienne, look for the directory perms
[08:13] <zmeiat_jor1> why isn't ubuntu using the partition i allocated for swap?
[08:14] <zmeiat_jor1> and how do I enable it now
[08:14] <ser_> helo
[08:14] <genii> jakeg No, this is a totally automated installation. I made a preseed file (something like a kickstart file) which feeds answers into the installer about such things as locale, video card type, packages to install, etc
[08:15] <nerdboy1024> lol, maybe ubuntu don't like your harddrive
[08:15] <Pilana> anyone can help me with wine?
[08:15] <cetienne> bulmer, the perms are as follows. drwxr-xr-x

[08:16] <bulmer> cetienne, umm can you create a helloworld.c simple program and compile it to see if an executable can be created in same dir?
[08:16] <genii> jakeg I install the openssh-server package then the last command the preseed file executes is a reboot, then the server knows from that IP not to pxeboot it again but let it boot to HD. then i can ssh in

[08:21] <_paul-uk> i know its a virtual package
[08:21] <sarthor> Topsun, i am new to linux
[08:21] <_paul-uk> but it'd be a nightmare to remove all that stuff manually
[08:21] <CarmenSandiego> Why is GAIM so interwoven into ubuntu? In order to remove it, apparently I also need to remove the ubuntu-desktop and nautilus-sendto packages. They sound like fairly integral packages. This is like MSN Messenger and windows. Is there any way to get rid of GAIM? It's an obsolete program I want to replace with Pidgin.
[08:21] <bulmer> alesan, netstat
[08:21] <jakeg> what's the general reason why ubuntu and other distros don't update their release ISOs periodically with all changes to packages since they were made? e.g. if i download the *latest* release now, straight away after install i have loads of packages to install/update. and with linux, that means downloading the whole packages again, not just patches... surely this is to change?
[08:21] <alesan> bulmer, it seems more appropriate a tool like nmap
[08:22] <alesan> netstat I need to have access to every machine
[08:22] <FunnyLookinHat> jakeg, actually, ubuntu has the MOST frequent release cycle.
[08:22] <alesan> that way I'd have to walk across all the building :(
[08:22] <balleyne> jakeg: because that would be making a different release.. wouldn't it?
[08:22] <bulmer> alesan go ahead, you know well there are many tools...i know ogf netstat..you know more proly
[08:23] <balleyne> jakeg: I don't mind it so much with a distro like ubuntu, since the releases are only 6 months apart anyways
[08:23] <Tomasso> sarthor, bridge using the vmware setting ?
[08:23] <BlackGhos> Anyone have VMWARE 6.0 for linux running ?
[08:23] <jakeg> FunnyLookinHat: yeah, but i still think it would make *so* much sense to have like weekly updates, like 7.04.01 etc which have whatever packages you'd get if you got 7.04 and did an at-get update straight after
[08:23] <sarthor> Tomasso, Yes.
[08:23] <bulmer> alesan ssh in to remote
[08:23] <balleyne> jakeg: plus, that would take away from the preparation of the next release, to be making weekly incremental releases
[08:23] <FunnyLookinHat> jakeg, You have a good point I suppose... but in reality, the only release to have more than 20 MB of updates or so over it's entire cycle was this one (Feisty) due to an open office patch.
[08:23] <jakeg> FunnyLookinHat: i installed fedora on an ISDN connection about three years ago and it was hell. downloaded the whole CD, installed it, then had to download so many blasted packages again, such a waste of bandwidth
[08:23] <zmeiat_jor1> so, for some reason ubuntu hsn't been using the swap pratition i allocated, how do I enable it now?
[08:24] <FunnyLookinHat> jakeg, that's because fedora sucks  ;)
[08:24] <Topsun> sarthor: do you have the commented version of kismet.conf ?
[08:24] <Tomasso> sarthor, when I bridge both and scan ports to 192.168.83.1 it doesnt show the 3389 port which 192.168.83.128 (the windows running inside vmware) shows
[08:24] <grimboy_uk> When starting jackd from qjackctl with the configuration outlined on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/QuickTips I get http://pastebin.ca/630939 Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[08:24] <jakeg> FunnyLookinHat: yeah, OOo is masive!

[08:24] <silver2> Seems I ran across the bug where if you uninstall the restricted

[08:24] <jakeg> genii: wonderful! so helpful, thanks
[08:24] <FunnyLookinHat> jakeg, it's quite bloated.  But compared to office it still has hardly the footprint on a system
[08:24] <sarthor> Topsun, i am isntalled with apt-get
[08:24] <grimboy_uk> Or if nobody knows can someone point me at a tutorial or something.
[08:25] <genii> jakeg You're welcome
[08:25] <zero-NO-ESTOY> hi all
[08:25] <angell> Hello, I have an acer x191w monitor that uses the "NVIDA GeForce 6100 nForce 405 (microsoft wddm)" driver on windows vista (I do a dual boot). The resolutions on "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto" did not help me fix my problems.
[08:25] <Pilana> i'm being an idiot. in a terminal how do you get to a certain drive?
[08:25] <jakeg> genii: do you use the same exact files etc regardless of the hardware you're installin on (i guess a wide range, s you're making cheap machines)
[08:25] <Topsun> sarthor: there should be some more documentation in '/usr/share/doc/kismet/...'
[08:25] <savetheWorld> "get to a drive" ??
[08:25] <Civik> I just did sudo apt get install ruby, now how do i create an icon on the desktop to open ruby??
[08:25] <Topsun> sarthor: maybe an example too
[08:25] <savetheWorld> Pilana: what do you mean? acces the file on the drive?
[08:26] <zero-NO-ESTOY> someone speak spanish?
[08:26] <pete83> grimboy_uk: why do you need jack, anyways?
[08:26] <savetheWorld> Pilana: A drive has to be mounted before it can beaccessed.
[08:26] <grimboy_uk> pete83, I want to use Rosegarden.
[08:26] <Pilana> like access the cd drive or a usb drive... it is mounted afaik
[08:27] <alesan> how can I chekc out how many rpm my hdd has?
[08:27] <sarthor> Topsun, Ok. Let me Check again. Seems that my Killer Will be Kismet (Kismet=Luck in our local language)
[08:27] <Topsun> sarthor: basically the description of the line you need is as following: source=sourcetype,interface,name[,initialchannel] 
[08:27] <pete83> grimboy_uk: but you can get jack working without these "quick tips"?
[08:28] <genii> jakeg I actually have 3 separate setups on the server :) 2 nics. One nic is for only P2-400 machines with certain video and soundcard. the other nic is to plug in only p3-class machines with entirely different video and soundcard. Then also off the 2nd one I can choose to do a generic net install with vesa video and no sound install
[08:28] <angell> Anyone have any suggestions on how to get ubuntu to support my widescreen monitor (resolution 1440x900)
[08:28] <sarthor> Topsun, yes, i have tried a lot of date changing here. but invain.
[08:28] <genii> jakeg: The last one needs to be a bit interactive, the other 2 ways are totally auto
[08:28] <BlackGhos> Anyone have VMWARE 6.0 for linux running ?
[08:28] <Topsun> angell: put the resolution in your xorg.conf
[08:28] <angell> tried that
[08:29] <Topsun> sarthor: what have you tried?
[08:29] <sarthor> Topsun, look please one. my laptop have 2 ethers, eth0 wired and eth1 wifi
[08:29] <angell> Topsun, it still doesnt show up under preferences
[08:29] <dyrne> BlackGhos: ive never had a problem with the vmware-server installer
[08:29] <grimboy_uk> pete83, No, actually it fails either way.
[08:29] <sarthor> Topsun, so my source time will be eth1??
[08:30] <Topsun> angell: are there more than one monitor sections in your xorg.conf ?
[08:30] <jakeg> genii: you must have learnt loads setting all that up!
[08:30] <sarthor> Topsun, Like source=ipw3945,eth1,addme
[08:30] <_paul-uk> i can't even get xserver to load at anything other than 720x400, i checked all the settings in xorg.conf but whenever i hit startx my monitor always comes up with the error 720 x 400 not supported
[08:30] <jakeg> genii: gotta go. trying a tribe 3 live cd
[08:30] <genii> jakeg Mostly the frustrating stuff as i said was finding the right values for the preseed files
[08:31] <genii> jakeg OK, good luck
[08:31] <jakeg> (first mission is to get ubuntu on my laptop at least!)
[08:31] <angell> Topsun, there is a "Monitor" section and a "Screen" section. I edited the "Screen sub section"s that listed resolutions

[08:40] <sarthor> Topsun, thanks brother
[08:40] <JohnsonsWhatever> Please, someone tell me how to remoev Avant WIndow Navigator, can't find it in the Synaptic? This can't be hard for any Linux experience user to tell me.
[08:40] <Topsun> sarthor: can you now use it?
[08:40] <sarthor> no.. reading your given links.
[08:41] <martyyyr> JohnsonsWhatever: How did you install it?
[08:41] <genii> Unity Ok. First i would keep it on AC power then if it may go off any moment on battery power. Then examine the file /etc/default/acpid to see what modules ae being loaded
[08:41] <ak5> Is there a way to purge all instances of a program with a few commands? And make sure that there are NO more versions installed?
[08:41] <Topsun> ak5: pkill <name>
[08:42] <Pici> JohnsonsWhatever: The name of avant window navigator is awn try searching for that.
[08:42] <genii> Unity eg, last line in there, like: MODULES="all"

[08:44] <quaala> nowplz
[08:44] <martyyyr> balleyne: nope
[08:44] <MTecknology> I have a computer with a lot of music on it and iTunes installed. It also has some podcast subscriptions on it. I have a few Ubuntu systems in my house and I was wondering if there's any way to listen to the music iTunes is sharing and if there's any way to listen to the podcasts it's downloaded.
[08:44] <genii> Unity Then also the last line of the file /etc/default/acpi-support should read: ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true
[08:44] <balleyne> martyyyr: you may have to check the domain that your ubuntu machine is using
[08:44] <balleyne> martyyyr: err, or workgroup... domain/workgroup
[08:44] <martyyyr> balleyne: You mean in smb.conf?
[08:45] <balleyne> martyyyr: I'm assuming you want to share something from a ubuntu machine, and have it visible in the Network Neighbourhood on an XP machine or something like that?
[08:45] <ak5> Topsun: Sry. but what does ps aux| grep <name> return for positive?
[08:45] <martyyyr> balleyne: That's right. However, right now I'm testing it as "ubuntu server to ubuntu client"
[08:45] <Topsun> ak5: the running processes which contain <name>
[08:46] <Topsun> ak5: of course it lists itself too
[08:46] <balleyne> martyyyr: ok, could be in smb.conf.. but there is a GUI way to do it
[08:46] <ak5> Topsun: but I really wanted to erase all versions of kismet on my computer - not only ones thatare running
[08:46] <martyyyr> balleyne: I don't have a GUI on my server.
[08:46] <ak5> Topsun: you know how?
[08:46] <norsunaattori> how can i connect with ssh to my friend's computer when he is behind the NAT? :/
[08:46] <Unity> genii: okay, MODULES="all" was already there, but i have just enabled laptop mode in acpi-support
[08:46] <balleyne> martyyyr: ah, ok, let me look at smb.conf..
[08:47] <martyyyr> k
[08:47] <Unity> genii: i have laptop-mode installed but i'm not sure if it's in the default runlevel, and i'm not sure about acpi-support either
[08:47] <Topsun> ak5: if kismet has a daemon you may stop it via '/etc/init.d/kismet stop'
[08:47] <Unity> genii: i can see that acpid is running
[08:47] <balleyne> martyyyr: yeah, looks like it's in there, I have a line "workgroup = BENT" which is the domain that all the machines on my network at home use
[08:47] <martyyyr> balleyne: Btw, I did set my workgroup in smb.conf. I don't tihnk that's the problem. I can connect to the shares using smbclient  just fine. They just won't show up in the list.
[08:47] <genii> Unity OK. Restart the acpid then by:   sudo /etc/init.d/acpid restart
[08:47] <ak5> Topsun: great nice thx for your trouble
[08:47] <Topsun> norsunaattori: he has to forward port 22 to his computer
[08:48] <dyrne> norsunaattori: you need to setup port forwarding in the router. forward port 22 to 192.168.1.4 or whatever
[08:48] <K7> ubuntu is better than winzoz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:48] <genii> Unity and also the acpi-support same way   sudo /etc/init.d/acpi-support restart
[08:48] <balleyne> martyyyr: as long as the workgroup is the same on all machines, then it won't be the problem... though I'm not sure what else could be.. =\

[08:51] <Unity> genii: also, i am looking at the systray battery monitor that came with kubuntu-desktop, it also says the battery is missing

[08:52] <martyyyr> balleyne: This is a config for a n ubuntu server that has windows clients?
[08:53] <Topsun> ak5: don't know an easy way but you can check the 'make install' output of that programm
[08:53] <martyyyr> balleyne: Do the clients actually use the smb.conf?

[08:53] <pete83> ak5: if you still have the makefile and source, you might be able to get rid of it by going there and running "sudo make uninstall"
[08:53] <Horizon> Gudegnaw: It's always a good idea to do backups of your personal files
[08:54] <ak5> pete83: and if not?
[08:54] <genii> Unity You may want instead for KDE, kde-guidance-powermanager package

[08:54] <xplosiv> display settings
[08:54] <genii> Unity and klaptopdaemon
[08:54] <pete83> ak5: well, then you might be able to redownload it and rebuild the makefile, and then instead of typing make install, try make uninstall (and use a sudo if you used a sudo to install it...)
[08:54] <gudegnaw> Horizon: Should I be looking into rsync for that purpose then? I guess am not sure if my destination needs to have the same folder structure as the one I am backing up

[08:55] <elmkd____> is there another repo where I can find the "intel" drivers? I tried xserver-xorg-video-intel
[08:55] <martyyyr> balleyne: thanks

[08:56] <_david> I prefer rhythmbox triden1 :P
[08:56] <ak5> pete83: ok thx
[08:56] <pete83> ak5: also, next time you install something from source, instead of doing "make install", do "checkinstall -D make install" ... this will make a deb package instead of installing it, and then you can uninstall it with synaptic

[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <LDS_Trooper> I would need to do that through iTunes right?

[08:58] <JohnsonsWhatever> Please, someone tell me how to remoev Avant WIndow Navigator, can't find it in the Synaptic? This can't be hard for any Linux experience user to tell me.
[08:58] <Vlet> I'm using Bigdesktop on 7.04 and all is well, but... My right-hand monitor is the default, hoever newly created icons on the desktop (ssh mounts, downloads) always appear on the left hand monitor... Why/how do I prevent this?
[08:58] <LDS_Trooper> _david, I would need to do that thru iTunes right?
[08:58] <Lunar_Lamp> Which file do I modify to make additional entries to my path? Should it be in .bashrc "PATH=$PATH:/new/dir" ?
[08:58] <balleyne> martyyyr: I think they're only really different at the bottom, probably
[08:59] <balleyne> martyyyr: my "server" is running Dapper, and it is a workstation too actually, but it has at least one folder shared... not a complex setup, but I can see that share in the network neighbourhood on my other windows and ubuntu machines
[08:59] <arthur_kalm> Hi everyone, I'm trying to get a D-Link DWL-G122 wireless USB adapter to work with Feisty. The adapter worked perfectly in Dapper but after the upgrade to Feisty, every time I plug the D-Link into the computer all the USB ports instantly disconnect and I get the following error: http://paste.plone.org/15873. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
[08:59] <weas3l> hey, whats the easiest way to install packages from a cd using synaptic? for example, i've downloaded the packages for nsdwrapper, but they are on another computer than the one the program needs installation on.
[08:59] <martyyyr> balleyne: Btw, did you know samba is faster if your config file doesn't have all the documentation in it?
[09:00] <browa13> huh?
[09:00] <Pilana> genii ? anything? :)
[09:00] <browa13> where am 8i?
[09:00] <_david> LDS_Trooper, yes, since it has the licenses
[09:00] <Pilana> over there
[09:00] <balleyne> martyyyr: had no idea - good to know!
[09:00] <weas3l> arthur: i'm having almost the same problem with a d-link dwl-g510
[09:00] <triden1> !hi | browa13
[09:00] <ubotu> browa13: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:00] <genii> Pilana Are you using a linux or windoze box to download the packages from the internet?
[09:00] <martyyyr> balleyne: I see. I'm copying your smb.conf to my pc. Let's see if it makes a difference.
[09:00] <sesan> martyyyr: No, it isn't faster
[09:00] <MonsieurBL> hi there, anyone would know what causes this : "error while loading shared libraries: libgc.so.1"
[09:00] <Hail_Spacecake> how can I find out what sound hardware I have?
[09:00] <arthur_kalm> weas3l: can't you just double click on the package?
[09:00] <balleyne> martyyyr: sorry, I've gotta get going... good luck though!
[09:00] <arthur_kalm> weas3l: or do you want to use teh CD as a source?
[09:01] <Pici> Hail_Spacecake: sudo lshw
[09:01] <Hail_Spacecake> assuming I've lost the manual that came with the system
[09:01] <LDS_Trooper> _david I thought you would say that...
[09:01] <martyyyr> balleyne: Thanks. Take care1
[09:01] <Pilana> genii: win, then a usb thumbdrive to transfer
[09:01] <weas3l> i suppose, i'm just lazy enough to ask the question before trying anything ;)

[09:07] <racter> does the live cd installer require an internet connection to install?
[09:07] <triden1> racter: no.
[09:07] <_david> panfist, perhaps windows has disabled simple file sharing?
[09:07] <racter> triden1: thx
[09:07] <compilerwriter> racter no it doesn't
[09:07] <LDS_Trooper> Hmmm how do you clear the history in Totem?
[09:07] <Hail_Spacecake> juano: not just zsnes, but not all ubuntu sound either
[09:07] <Hail_Spacecake> amarok sounds okay, but there are other applications with shit sound as well

[09:08] <juano__> does anyone know if the beep media player supports full built in minimize to system tray function ? and not like xmms buggy tray plugin ??
[09:08] <panfist> _david yes windows has disabled simple file sharing, hence the credentials. this is a share on a windows 2003 server which i can access from this xubuntu laptop right now using the exact same line in /etc/fstab
[09:08] <compilerwriter> reikon__ you mean open office?
[09:08] <reikon__> thanks DjViper, arthur_kalm
[09:08] <reikon__> yeah compilerwriter
[09:08] <compilerwriter> Yes they both do.

[09:08] <Davy_Jones> LDS_Trooper: then all the porn will go away
[09:08] <panfist> pici im pretty sure its cifs, its a windows server 2003 machine and the exact same line in /etc/fstab works on this xubuntu laptop
[09:08] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: u under GNOME or KDE ?
[09:09] <_david> panfist, in that case I dont know, have had the problem before but cant remember what I did :/
[09:09] <JohnsonsWhatever> Please, someone tell me how to remoev Avant WIndow Navigator, can't find it in the Synaptic? This can't be hard for any Linux experience user to tell me.
[09:09] <mcscruff> Ubuntu has gone big, PC World Sell ubuntu books!

[09:09] <ak5> ah shit my whole pc is full of kismet junk ... how to rmove?
[09:09] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: Xfce
[09:09] <panfist> _david i see, thanks
[09:09] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: How did you install it?
[09:09] <LDS_Trooper> Sorry no porn
[09:09] <JohnsonsWhatever> Just normal install triden1
[09:09] <reikon__> I was looking on the alpha of 7.10 with Xubuntu and couldn't find it. Doing a informative speech on Linux for a communications course, just wanted to get this all planned out ahead of time :)
[09:09] <Hail_Spacecake> juano: KDE
[09:09] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: normal being...
[09:09] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: open up kmix
[09:09] <onur_> JohnsonsWhatever, search it in synaptic what's the problem ?
[09:09] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: sudo apt-get install or something
[09:09] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: check your settings there
[09:09] <panfist> pici i know on the laptop i tried using samba first before fiding out that you must use cifs with windows server 2003...are there some samba daemons or anything else i need to install/run to use cifs?
[09:09] <dyrne> ak5: did you use package manager to install it?
[09:09] <JohnsonsWhatever> onur_: dont find it there.
[09:10] <bobgill> i'm doing kill but firefox process isn't going away, in system monitor its status is "Zombie" what can I do
[09:10] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: check PCM level, it should be fairly high
[09:10] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: sudo apt-get remove
[09:10] <onur_> JohnsonsWhatever, how did you install it ?
[09:10] <pete83> ak5: it doesn't look like they added a remove option in the makefile
[09:10] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: check to see if your card is well detected ... model
[09:10] <W9ZEB> anyone here able to assist me with a USB 2.0 webcam?
[09:10] <ak5> dynre you mean synaptic? not only :(
[09:10] <Pici> panfist: I'm not really all that familar with CIFS unfortunately sorry.
[09:10] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: check to see if you have ALSA as well
[09:10] <ak5> pete83: I used make clean - dont know if it worked
[09:11] <panfist> what would be the correct syntax if i wanted to test mount //192.168.0.1/D$ from the command line before putting it in fstab
[09:11] <ak5> pete83: but no errors
[09:11] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: didnt work

[09:11] <pete83> ak5: I think all that does is delete the temporary compiled files in the source directory
[09:11] <Hail_Spacecake> juano: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30955/ is the output of kmix
[09:11] <facecoos> what is the correct way to mount a XFS fileystem with all necessary permissions??????
[09:11] <Davy_Jones> LDS_Trooper: ok, i believe you ;)
[09:11] <Hail_Spacecake> how do I check if I have ALSA?
[09:11] <W9ZEB> arthur_kalm: thank you.
[09:11] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: You'll have to find out how you installed it.
[09:11] <mwe> you shouldn't need any daemons to use cifs
[09:11] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: k sec
[09:11] <arthur_kalm> W9ZEB: np
[09:12] <Pici> panfist: mount -t sifs -o username='username' /device /dir
[09:12] <pete83> ak5: this is a case where using "checkinstall" would definitely have made things easier
[09:12] <ak5> pete83: oh
[09:12] <Pici> panfist: cifs rather
[09:12] <liquiddoom> In /var/log/messages, does "-- MARK --" mean anything relevant?
[09:12] <Hail_Spacecake> lspci gives this for my card: 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)

[09:12] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: launch kmix from alt + F2
[09:13] <mwe> ak5, you installed somethin using make install and can't get rid of it?
[09:13] <ak5> mwe: yes
[09:13] <mwe> ak5, if you saved the source, make uninstall usually works
[09:13] <pete83> ak5: well, now you might have to read the Makefile, and look in the "install:" section, and manually see where it put the individual files, and delete them
[09:13] <juano__> Hail_Spacecake: run alsamixer from console
[09:13] <dzer0> hello
[09:13] <panfist> pici i got the error: mount: block device /device is write protected, mounting read only; mount: cannot mount block device /device read-only
[09:13] <foey> _david : ty, Can I download Q3 for linux then? Ive got the full windows version.
[09:13] <triden1> !hi | dzer0
[09:13] <ak5> mwe: tried that, didn't make uninstall target
[09:13] <ubotu> dzer0: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:13] <mwe> ak5, if not installing it again over the old then running make unistall may work
[09:13] <pete83> ak5: actually, I just thought of something that MIGHT work
[09:14] <_david> foey, yes
[09:14] <Pici> panfist: you prefixed the command with sudo, right?
[09:14] <mwe> ak5, oh
[09:14] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: I did as Option 1 on this site http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2093300
[09:14] <ak5> pete83: that will actually remove the program? sounds unlike windows to me...
[09:14] <mwe> ak5, install using checkinstall then uninstall the .deb
[09:14] <panfist> pici well not at first but it wouldnt let me do it without sudo heh
[09:14] <juano__> does anyone know if the beep media player supports full built in minimize to system tray function ? and not like xmms buggy tray plugin ??
[09:14] <dzer0> I restarted my computer today and all of a sudden, ALSA stopped working. The only way to get sound is to set the output directly to the soundcard instead of ALSA, which lets only 1 app use sound at a time. How can I fix ALSA?
[09:14] <mwe> ak5, destination should be the same I think
[09:15] <mwe> ak5, what was the program?
[09:15] <juano__> dzer0: run alsamixer from terminal
[09:15] <ak5> mwe: kismet
[09:15] <juano__> dzer0: check settings there
[09:15] <ak5> pete83: what was ur idea?
[09:15] <Pici> panfist: Did you replace /device and /dir with the device you are trying to mount and the directory you are trying to mount to?
[09:15] <panfist> pici yes of course
[09:15] <mwe> ak5, I'd install it over the old install with checkinstall then remove it with APT
[09:15] <Pici> panfist: Okay, (I have to ask).
[09:15] <triden1> JohnsonsWhatever: You compiled it... don't know how to decompile it... :/
[09:15] <_david> foey, http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wfdownloads/singlefile.php?cid=25&lid=61 i think that'd be best for you?
[09:15] <Pici> panfist: Did it prompt you for a password?
[09:15] <dzer0> juano__: I have 2 sound cards in my system. ALSA is set to the wrong one. How do I set it to the other card?
[09:16] <panfist> pici device was //192.168.0.1/D$ and dir was ~/Desktop/Netdrive/dir
[09:16] <pete83> ak5: well, im just trying it out
[09:16] <JohnsonsWhatever> triden1: jesus :( how on earth, do I have to delete the whole Ubuntu again, again! :( aaaaaah
[09:16] <panfist> pici nope it errored right away
[09:16] <ak5> mwe: i'll try that if nothing else works - thanks
[09:16] <LDS_Trooper> Any suggestions on learning the Terminal?
[09:16] <The_Sorrow> Hey can someone help to install the VMware server??
[09:16] <_david> LDS_Trooper, google for bash tutorial :)
[09:16] <LDS_Trooper> _david, thanks
[09:17] <Hail_Spacecake> juano: alsamixer and kmix both ran
[09:17] <SA1300> JohnsonsWhatever: if you still have the build directory around try "make deinstall"
[09:17] <Pici> panfist: Try replacing the ~/ with the fill path to your home directory.
[09:17] <Hail_Spacecake> what should I be looking for?
[09:17] <juano__> dzer0: sec, there is a command to setup alsa
[09:17] <dzer0> juano__: thanks :)
[09:17] <foey> _david : ty david. Great help :)
[09:17] <panfist> pici when i tab complete it does that automatically
[09:18] <JohnsonsWhatever> To install Ubuntu Studio, is that safe?
[09:18] <kyja> why cant I recieve my email from my pop3d ??
[09:18] <_david> kyja, you tell us
[09:18] <facecoos> Even with root I nothing happens when I chmod a dir
[09:18] <Pici> panfist: hmm. I'm not sure what to suggest.
[09:19] <kyja> ports are opened. says there is something wrong with chdir of .maildir
[09:19] <Hail_Spacecake> juano: the PCM meter is in the red
[09:19] <Hail_Spacecake> it doesn't look like it gives a scale, though
[09:19] <_david> in a terminal try cd ~/.maildir then ls and see if it lists anything kyja
[09:19] <Hail_Spacecake> so I don't know what number to attach to that
[09:19] <_david> brb
[09:19] <panfist> pici is it possible that because i have the same account information on my laptop and my desktop that the server is not letting both of them access the share at once?
[09:19] <kyja> I have even created a .maildir in my home directory with owner and group as deamon
[09:20] <kyja> thx I will try
[09:20] <kyja> haha denied
[09:20] <W9ZEB> is there a replacement package for linux-uvc-tools, and linux-uvc-source?  or is there another repo I need to add to locate them?
[09:20] <Pici> panfist: Its possible that the max number of concurrent connections is set to 1.
[09:20] <Pici> panfist: But thats an odd configuration.

[09:29] <xerophyte> how can i browse the web using ssh tunnel ? is there any howto which explain i search the Internet could not find one
[09:30] <Relate> Is there any way to view flash animations on firefox with ubuntu feisty fawn 64 bits?
[09:30] <pete83> ak5: so presumably, you could install the package (if checkinstall didn't do it for you automatically), and then use your package manager to remove it
[09:30] <Davy_Jones> xerophyte: go into the tunnel and turn on your computer and start browsing
[09:30] <Pici> !flash64 | Relate
[09:30] <juano__> dzer0: maybe its easier if you try reinstalling alsa
[09:30] <ak5> pete83: look for it in synaptic and remove?

[09:30] <pete83> ak5: yeah
[09:31] <xerophyte> Davy_Jones, i tried that .. didn't help much :) can you come other end of it .. that might help :)
[09:31] <qaws> !sound
[09:31] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[09:36] <gcarrillo> hi all
[09:36] <gcarrillo> does anybody know if a long CD spindown time is normal on boot?
[09:36] <gcarrillo> id say 1 min or so
[09:36] <pete83> ak5: ok, in the folder with the source code, just delete the "doc-pak" folder, and now try the checkinstall command again
[09:36] <cysa> may I ask a question please??
[09:36] <Pilana> genii : It says there's dependancy problems...
[09:36] <arthur_kalm> Hi everyone, I'm trying to get a D-Link DWL-G122 wireless USB adapter to work with Feisty. The adapter worked perfectly in Dapper but after the upgrade to Feisty, every time I plug the D-Link into the computer all the USB ports instantly disconnect and I get the following error: http://paste.plone.org/15873. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
[09:37] <genii> Pilana Then it's going to be a real headache without getting that box online
[09:37] <jrib> !ask | cysa
[09:37] <ubotu> cysa: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:37] <cysa> Well I have a problem with my calculator. It doesn't show the digits after the . What is wrong??
[09:37] <Pilana> hehe not trying to get it online. my sister just wants to play her cdroms
[09:38] <IceLink> is it normal that if i want to remove 'rhythmbox' that ubuntu-desktop is removed, too o0
[09:38] <[UPG] Pritchard> Hi.  I tried to upgrade from Ubuntu Dapper to Feisty, but during installation some files must have changed, and now my X configuration's apparently messed up very badly.  The characters in my windows are all rectangular boxes.
[09:38] <rustalot> anybody know where I can find the fid of mark shuttleworth's keynote?
[09:38] <jrib> !ubuntu-desktop | IceLink
[09:38] <ubotu> IceLink: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[09:38] <ak5> pete83: what option does sudo rmdir need for full dirs?
[09:38] <IceLink> jrib you want to tell me that ubuntu-desktop depends on a music-player o0
[09:39] <[UPG] Pritchard> I'm not sure how to diagnose this problem.  There could be other configuration files messed up that I don't know about.  -_-;;  Wonder where I went wrong upgrading my distribution...
[09:39] <pete83> ak5: ah, can't you just delete it in nautilus?
[09:39] <ferret_0567> will removing networkmanager cause connecting to ethernet networks to fail?
[09:39] <genii> Pilana You could hook it up temporarily, long enough to install the things you may need then disconnect it
[09:39] <jrib> IceLink: yes, ubuntu-desktop just pulls in all of the other packages that constitute a default ubuntu desktop
[09:39] <ak5> pete83: well I need root, cause you told me to checkinstall as root
[09:39] <Pilana> I would but there's no way to. it doesn't have a phone or ethernet port :(
[09:40] <jrib> [UPG] Pritchard: what method did you use to upgrade?
[09:40] <pete83> ak5: oh, good point. here's a trick, avoiding your question: sudo nautilus
[09:40] <yeko> IceLink That is not uncommon...I have actually uninstalled ubuntu-desktop...and the app...then reinstalled ubuntu-desktop (when the app is gone)..this is crazy
[09:40] <s-ndh-c> someone knows what piece of software is responsible for the FN keys on laptops?
[09:40] <ak5> pete83: ok cool :)
[09:40] <IceLink> strange.
[09:40] <genii> xmodmap
[09:40] <[UPG] Pritchard> @jrib:  I edited my etc/apt/sources.list file and replaced dapper with feisty, and then I tried a ubuntu upgrade manager update.
[09:41] <adrian> can somebody help me to set up lirc on Feisty with a Haupagge HVR-1110card?
[09:41] <Linguist22> good question s-ndh-c
[09:41] <LadySerena> how does one enable inet6 in Konq?
[09:41] <s-ndh-c> Linguist22: i previously had to install fnfx (some years ago) but that isnt installed at all
[09:41] <s-ndh-c> so iam asking what else is doing this?
[09:42] <jrib> [UPG] Pritchard: k, two issues: 1) you aren't supposed to skip releases when upgrading and 2) apt-get dist-upgrade isn't recommended, instead you should use update-manager (see ubotu)
[09:42] <jrib> !upgrade > [UPG] Pritchard (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:42] <ak5> pete83: thank you so much with bothering yourself with my stupid problems... and I am running check install again
[09:42] <Pilana> hehe not to mention I don't remember how to get it online
[09:42] <[UPG] Pritchard> @jrib:  Alright.   So I should move from dapper to 6.10?
[09:42] <[UPG] Pritchard> Then from that to 7.04?
[09:42] <pete83> ak5: ok, well hopefully it will work
[09:43] <IceLink> is there any possibility to make rhythmbox ignore .mid-files? it can't play them anyway
[09:43] <jrib> [UPG] Pritchard: yeah, but if you've already started the update, you probably just have to fumble around with it for it to complete
[09:43] <ak5> pete83: install works, nowremove it with synaptic?
[09:44] <juano__> hi jrib
[09:44] <juano__> hi xtknight
[09:44] <Pilana> Ok... any way other than wine to play a windows cdrom game on ubuntu?
[09:44] <pete83> ak5, sure, try it. And use checkinstall for installing programs in the future!
[09:44] <jrib> juano__: hi
[09:44] <xtknight> hey
[09:44] <genii> Pilan Well, if you have that windoze box around you could install the network-over-nullmodem or parallel-port stuff then go get a nullmodem cable from your local computer place to wire them together
[09:44] <[UPG] Pritchard> @jrib: Oh dear -_-;; My x configuration's apparently messed up now, and I was getting quite a few errors while using the update manager.  My english characters have turned into rectangles.  Any idea how to repair that before I move on?
[09:44] <jrib> [UPG] Pritchard: at this point, what does 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' do? (use pastebin)
[09:44] <cotcot2006> Pilana : Cedega (is not free of cost)
[09:45] <Linguist22> can you switch back to your original x configuration at login?
[09:45] <Pilana> hehe yeah not free = bad
[09:45] <Pilana> :)
[09:45] <genii> Pilan You would need the windoze Internet Connection sharing installed   but then you could use the laptop to access the files you need directly, not to mention just to run apt-get update
[09:45] <ak5> pete83: you can bet on it!! the man page for checkinstall hopefully tels me how to use it
[09:45] <kylecasey> hi
[09:45] <Pilana> hrm...
[09:45] <[UPG] Pritchard> @jrib:  Sorry, I can't at the moment.  Just remembered that my X won't even start now.  Had to move back on windows.
[09:45] <genii> Pilan Ok, for free, you can scrap 2 old nonworking serial mice, then rewire them yourself for free into a db9 nullmodem
[09:45] <kylecasey> tyring to setup the ati driver for feisty and have some issues anyone have ideas?
[09:46] <[UPG] Pritchard> First it was that weird characters were showing up, and now it's that X tells me something's misconfigured.
[09:46] <jrib> [UPG] Pritchard: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[09:46] <ak5> pete83: one last question: whats the difference between synaptics removal and complete removal? complete includes dependancies?
[09:46] <Linguist22> perhaps you can boot off your ubuntu cd and change your xorg file in the gui
[09:47] <kylecasey> ?
[09:47] <Kayfan> Hi, can anybody help me with forcing a screen resolution?
[09:48] <fevel> has anyone heard of freemind??
[09:48] <genii> Pilan the wiring diagrams for nullmodem are easily found by way of google.
[09:48] <pete83> ak5: honestly, I'm not 100% sure
[09:48] <cysa> Does anyone know what is wrong when I can't get any decimal numbers on my calculator???
[09:48] <jaw_> fevel: i've used freemind
[09:49] <pete83> ak5: I think it may try to remove the config files, not just the installed files
[09:49] <kylecasey> anybody have ati card and driver setup correctly and know how i can do it? (ive tried the wiki guide and still it says Mesa is running
[09:49] <pete83> ak5: that is, with the "complete" option
[09:49] <fevel> jaw_,  is there a package for ubuntu? or a similar package?
[09:49] <jaw_> fevel: it's a java app right? so  if you have java you can just download and run it... possibly?
[09:49] <jrib> !fixres > Kayfan (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:50] <Pilana> Genii: I'm gonna try this, if I can't get it to work I'll come back. Thanks in advanced if it does work. :)
[09:51] <ak5> pete83:  your right as always, thank you so  much: I'm now back to square one with kismet! :) If I have any problems in the future i'll be sure to ask here. This community works because of people like you
[09:53] <gudegnaw> When trying to upgrade to Feisty, I am getting an error telling me I need to clean up some disk space in /var/cache. I did sudo apt-get clean and also went into the /var/cache/apt/partial folder, there is nothing to clean up there, am still getting this error telling me I need to clean up 676MB of space, help
[09:53] <pete83> ak5: haha no problem
[09:53] <kylecasey> genii am i in the wrong channel for my question?

[09:54] <genii> kylecasey: What is your question?
[09:54] <pete83> kylecasey: what card?
[09:55] <wckdkl0wn> big difference from the 5.04 version
[09:55] <genefitz> Wckd, which version, Feisty or Gutsy?
[09:55] <kylecasey> 9600
[09:55] <kylecasey> se
[09:55] <kylecasey> the suck edition
[09:55] <genii> kylecasey: Nevermind I scrolled up and saw it. Yes, correct channel to ask in
[09:55] <wckdkl0wn> genefitz, feisty
[09:55] <kylecasey> ok thanks
[09:55] <ninix> Hi, i want to know, is it possible to configure my pc to work with beryl with my lcd screen ... and have a normal non-beryl tv out ?
[09:55] <wckdkl0wn> am i able to burn a cd while in live mode with the new version?
[09:56] <kylecasey> sorry
[09:56] <ninix> currently ive got a dual screen
[09:56] <kylecasey> i have no idea how to do that auto reply thing
[09:56] <genefitz> Wckd, there are some great advancements with feisty. I am using the Ultimate variation of Feisty.. Ubuntu Ultimate 1.4
[09:56] <panfist> i'm not sure if this utility is supported, but from ubuntuguide.org i got a link that said you could install nrg2iso to conver nrg to iso format, when i try to use it i get "segmentation fault, core dumped"
[09:56] <malik__> hi
[09:56] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: should be fine if you already have the iso on some sort of local storage
[09:56] <genefitz> I am very impressed.
[09:56] <malik__> how can i install compiz in kubuntu
[09:57] <kylecasey> genii/ pete83 ive tried the install guides on the wiki and dled the driver from ati's site but still cant set it up to get rid of mesa
[09:57] <Christopher> ok is anyone willing to help me
[09:57] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, well i burned the cd from another computer so only thing this system sees is the live cd.. but i cant copy my files from this hard drive to a network pc so i want to burn everything i have on it before i install ubuntu fully
[09:57] <genefitz> Malik, there is a wiki for that, or you could check Ubuntu forums. Beware though, many have had problems with the newer version of Compiz and beryl alike..
[09:58] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: if you only have one drive and the livecd is using it, then no, you can't burn anything
[09:58] <Yggdrasil> how do i find out the uuid of my hard drive please ?\
[09:58] <jrib> !uuid > Yggdrasil (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:58] <Christopher> i just installed feisty on a toshiba laptop and about after 20 or so minutes all apps freeze but the mouse still works.. help me out!!
[09:58] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: and why can't you move the files to a network share?
[09:58] <pete83> kylecasey: does it use the firegl driver?
[09:58] <pete83> kylecasey: that is, fglrx?
[09:58] <kylecasey> i think its supposed to use opnegl pete83
[09:58] <kylecasey> didnt say anything about fire
[09:58] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[09:59] <Yggdrasil> is there another way, using fdisk ?
[09:59] <kylecasey> yes pete83
[09:59] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, something to do with the way the other system is setup i dunno.. i enabled file and print sharing on the other pc and shared a folder but when i browse to that pc from linux i get contents cant be shown
[09:59] <Yggdrasil> im running out of the emergency shell
[09:59] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: what operating system is the other computer running?
[09:59] <pete83> kylecasey: first of all, don't use the one from ati's website
[09:59] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, xp  i can see the system just cant access it
[09:59] <juano__> does anyone know of a winamp style player for linux that has minimize to system tray support ????
[09:59] <powergoal> Can I set an application link on the kubuntu desktop to load without borders?
[10:00] <Christopher> whos the top man who wants to help me out
[10:00] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, i just dont want to lose the photoshop work i have done on this pc when it was xp.. and i have way too much to upload to some site
[10:00] <kylecasey> pete83 i used the envy thing before (months ago) and lately my system crashes on moderate graphics games
[10:00] <bruenig> !justask | Christopher
[10:00] <ubotu> Christopher: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:01] <fdr> !skype
[10:01] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[10:01] <pete83> kylecasey: do this: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:01] <juano__> !winamp
[10:01] <ubotu> winamp is a windows music player. On Ubuntu you can use beep-media-player or xmms as alternative.
[10:01] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: take the hdd out and connect it to the other computer, or work out how to get your windows file sharing working
[10:01] <juano__> yea right, with no system tray support
[10:01] <Christopher> ubotu: my system is freezing after about 20 minutes after boot.. the mouse still works tho
[10:02] <dystopianray> Christopher: ubotu is a bot
[10:02] <kylecasey> pete83 it gives me no changes but 7 packages that arent needed
[10:02] <genefitz> I use XMMS, I love it, combined with Streamripper..
[10:02] <Christopher> LOL.
[10:02] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, is there a way i can install ubuntu at the end of the hard drive and leave the file system intack? that way i can burn the stuff i need and then reinstall ubuntu afterwards to take up the entire drive?
[10:02] <genefitz> I have all the shoutcasts and such one could imagine..
[10:02] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: sure, resize the partition and then install ubuntu in the empty space
[10:02] <pete83> kylecasey: what do you mean? what happens when you type that command?
[10:02] <Christopher> dystopianray: my system is freezing after about 20 minutes after boot.. the mouse still works tho
[10:02] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, ok how do i resize the partition?
[10:03] <panfist> in fstab what do options nls, umask, gid mean? thanks
[10:03] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: I believe the ubuntu installer can do that
[10:03] <kylecasey> pete83 it says its already the newest one but that theres 7 packages i dont need
[10:03] <bruenig> Christopher, ask yourself, what increases my odds of having my question answered, singling out people one by one and asking or asking 1184 people simultaneously
[10:03] <dystopianray> panfist: man fstab
[10:03] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, the ntfs filesystem is only using roughly 100 gigs of the 250 gig.. but its all one drive with no partitions split off it
[10:03] <pete83> kylecasey: did you edit your xorg.conf?
[10:03] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: so resize it
[10:03] <nikin> i still havent found a solution to edit my movies... all i need is cut and paste... on any standard format.. preferably ogg theora. a way to insert pictures would be nice but not realy nescesarry.. the same is tru for inserting texts
[10:03] <Christopher> is bruenig a bot too?
[10:04] <kylecasey> i believe so like the guide said to pete83
[10:04] <bruenig> !opsnack | Christopher
[10:04] <ubotu> Christopher: Chocolate!  And Peanuts!
[10:04] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, ok i will try that and see what happens.. hopefully i dont screw it up and lose everything lol
[10:04] <panfist> dystopianray ty
[10:04] <PriceChild> bruenig, OI!!!! who's been having my choccie!
[10:04] <wckdkl0wn> dystopianray, ty
[10:04] <BrightEyes> hello.how can i write the outputs of the commands who date cal in the a file "filename" with one command?
[10:04] <pete83> kylecasey: could you go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/   and paste in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[10:05] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: you could even temporarily connect another burner to the computer
[10:05] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, you want to run a program in a terminal, and the output to go into a file?
[10:05] <tarzeau> BrightEyes: (who;date;cal)>filename ?
[10:05] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: or install samba in the livecd environment and get xp to copy files off a share
[10:05] <Prendy> Hi
[10:05] <kylecasey> ok pete83 how would i get to it
[10:05] <BrightEyes> PriceChild : 3 commands and their output into a file
[10:05] <kylecasey> the file
[10:05] <genefitz> for video editing I use avidemux
[10:05] <Prendy> I was wondering how much ubuntu takes up on a drive?
[10:05] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: $ who > filename; date >> filename; cal >> filename
[10:05] <tarzeau> PriceChild: if i had lost 3 litres of blood and lie around on the ground. you'd first ask me if i want a glass of water?
[10:05] <genii> Yggdrasil: blkid  will show all uuid
[10:05] <malik__>  i have just installed kubuntu , it has already installed nvidia as my display card, do i still need to install nvidia drivers for having compiz to work on my machine??
[10:06] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, tarzeau's works :)
[10:06] <Yggdrasil> genii
[10:06] <BrightEyes> dystopianray thats 3 commands!!!
[10:06] <Yggdrasil> i get a lib not foud error
[10:06] <pete83> kylecasey: open it in a text editor, then select it all, then edit>>copy ... then right click on the webpage and go to pase...
[10:06] <Yggdrasil> i running in a super minimal shell
[10:06] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: it's one line
[10:06] <Yggdrasil> thres an fdisk or something
[10:06] <Prendy> Eeerm
[10:06] <mylogic> does Beryl not like to work on Radeon Mobile x700's?
[10:06] <PriceChild> tarzeau, I'm sorry, I just found the initial question worded wierdly and had to check :)
[10:06] <BrightEyes> PriceChild that way i know how to do it..i want 1 command
[10:06] <Prendy> How much memory do you need to run ubuntu?
[10:06] <CardinalBiggles> Prendy, It depends.  Probably less than 700MB for no GUI.  Add a GB for a full GUI.
[10:06] <tarzeau> PriceChild: np , i was just kidding anyways
[10:06] <kevinl--> hello, i am looking for help with usplash .  It seems to me that there is SOMETHING different in ubuntu 7.04 compared to etch (stable) , that makes usplash 0.44 work correctly.  I compiled it from source on etch, everything installs an usplash runs at boot time, but it falls back to the ugly black and white ubuntu graphic, with a messed up progress bar. I think there is something in ubuntu 7.04 that sets up the console differently, or there is a difffere
[10:06] <Christopher> hey 1184 people in this channel!  im running feisty and 20 minutes after boot the system freezes but the mouse still works.  im running a mem test right now. does anyone have any ideas??
[10:06] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, what do you mean one command?
[10:06] <tarzeau> PriceChild: 256mb, better 384
[10:06] <genefitz> Malik, you houls be able to go to the Compiz site. The installation guide is in wiki form..
[10:06] <Prendy> Uh-oh
[10:06] <tarzeau> Prendy: that was for you
[10:07] <Prendy> I only have 256mb of mmory..
[10:07] <tarzeau> Prendy: if you want low-mem stuff, try livecd.gnustep.org
[10:07] <henn_tech> where does the grub config file get stored?
[10:07] <tarzeau> Prendy: it probably will work (but awfully slow :)
[10:07] <kylecasey> ok pete83 heres the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30962/
[10:07] <BrightEyes> PriceChild : by writing ";" that means that a command is ending and another one starts
[10:07] <dystopianray> Christopher: check google for similar problems with the same laptop model
[10:07] <Prendy> Ok
[10:07] <tarzeau> henn_tech: /boot/grub/
[10:07] <Prendy> Thanks
[10:07] <henn_tech> tarzeau; thanks
[10:07] <genefitz> Or for simpler version of Compiz, provided you are using Feisty, you can go into system properties and enable desktop effects, which gives you the cube desktop and "wobble windows"
[10:07] <Yggdrasil> my computer wont boot because the uuid was labeled into grub erroniaoulsy
[10:08] <crackintosh> does anyone have tomcat running on their ubuntu machine? can someone tell me what the permissions are on the tomcat directory?
[10:08] <Prendy> My windows is already slow so yeah :P
[10:08] <genii> Yggdrasil: fdisk does not have capability to show uuid as far as i am aware of
[10:08] <crackintosh> im running as root and its not working :-/
[10:08] <norsunaattori> -bash: cd: /X11/: No such file or directory, how can that be possible? :)
[10:08] <Yggdrasil> genii well i did this once before
[10:08] <Yggdrasil> blkid huh
[10:08] <nikin> hmm is there to convert a movie from ogg theora to anything what avidemux is capable to open? VLC is an option.. but it is a bit complicated
[10:08] <norsunaattori> he was in /etc/
[10:08] <Masterkong> hiya
[10:08] <Yggdrasil> basicly ive managed to mount my sda1 as /sda1
[10:08] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, Ok...
[10:08] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, so how do you expect to run 3 different commands without running them?
[10:09] <dystopianray> norsunaattori: /X11 is an absolute path, cd X11
[10:09] <bruenig> norsunaattori, he must have done cd /X11 instead of cd X11
[10:09] <BrightEyes> PriceChild : try => (who; date; cal) > filename
[10:09] <Yggdrasil> but if something is linked such as the lib for blkid , then its pulling it from /lib and shoudl be /sda1/lib
[10:09] <BrightEyes> PriceChild : is that working?
[10:09] <PriceChild> BrightEyes, yes
[10:09] <Yggdrasil> i have to go into /sda1/sbin/blkid
[10:09] <norsunaattori> ok :D
[10:09] <pete83> kylecasey: OK, in line 136 where it says "ATI RADEON 9600 SE", change it to "aticonfig-Device[0] "
[10:09] <genefitz> Malik, be fair warned, Compiz, depending on your system can be very unstable. Be ready for a crash of X-Org, and maybe the need to reload.
[10:09] <bruenig> norsunaattori, or alternatively cd ./X11
[10:10] <arash`> i have problem with my t41 running 7.04 where while im typing, my trackpoint is jumpy. anyone know how to fix that?
[10:10] <robert_> eh
[10:10] <norsunaattori> ;P im stupid:P
[10:10] <] [acking> hy everyone
[10:10] <kylecasey> ok pete83 now save the file?
[10:10] <genefitz> Hello ] [acking.. welcome
[10:10] <Masterkong> hmm. my computer locks up when i try to go back to desktop after i've switched to console..
[10:10] <eliran> Hello
[10:10] <pete83>  kylecasey: yes. is it open with the rights to save it?
[10:11] <] [acking> i have a problem i installed nvidia driver from nvidia site and now after all restarts i have to reinstall that driver
[10:11] <] [acking> because x server doesnt start
[10:11] <dystopianray> Masterkong: that happens a lot with certain video drivers
[10:11] <kylecasey> pete83 its open with gedit and i can save
[10:11] <dystopianray> ] [acking: why could you not install it from the repos?
[10:11] <BrightEyes> how can i delete all the files in a folder starting with "f" ? (their names start with the f letter)
[10:11] <genefitz> Master have you tried to sudo apt-get update / upgrade?
[10:11] <eliran> don't know
[10:11] <pete83>  kylecasey: ok, so you used sudo geit to open it?
[10:11] <robert_> there must be something  wrong with my ubuntu install- stuff like mplayer routinely segfaults upon exit
[10:11] <joules> how do i add another screen to my comp? like an actual lcd screen?
[10:11] <Masterkong> yup genefitz
[10:11] <kylecasey> yep pete83
[10:11] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: are you getting us to do your homework?
[10:11] <Masterkong> do it every day
[10:11] <genefitz> Many times if you hare having locking problems, the kernel update may help
[10:11] <pete83>  kylecasey: ok good so save it
[10:12] <kylecasey> k done pete83
[10:12] <] [acking> dystopianray, what repos do i need?
[10:12] <genefitz> Hmm, what are you system properties?
[10:12] <Masterkong> sometimes. it just goes black..
[10:12] <Masterkong> an i can change back to console
[10:12] <dystopianray> ] [acking: they're in the default repos, what card do you have though?
[10:12] <joules> anyone knows how to add another screen to ubuntu?
[10:12] <Masterkong> an kill the x-server..
[10:13] <] [acking> nvidia 7300 gt
[10:13] <genefitz> Houles, are you looking for a replacement desktop wallpaper, or to add extra desktops?
[10:13] <Mind-bOgglEd> have a nice day
[10:13] <] [acking> dystopianray
[10:13] <Masterkong> this problem began when i changed from nv to nvidia frivers
[10:13] <Mind-bOgglEd> .
[10:13] <pete83> kylecasey: so try resetting now.. killing the xserver might work, but resetting is more failproof in my experience
[10:13] <crackintosh> is there anyway to list all the users in the system? not just ones logged in but all users that have been created?
[10:13] <Yggdrasil> genii got it.... /sbin/vol_id -u
[10:13] <dystopianray> Masterkong: nvidia drivers don't play nice with the console, this is normal
[10:13] <genefitz> To add desktops, you can right click on the desktop switcher and add via the number choice..
[10:14] <dystopianray> crackintosh: cat /etc/passwd
[10:14] <kylecasey> ok pete83 after this it should change frglx info to say ati or will it still have mesa?
[10:14] <Masterkong> ok dystopianray .. have you con any idea how to make it better?
[10:14] <kylecasey> or are there more steps
[10:14] <genefitz> Master, have you tried the dpkg command for driver selection?
[10:14] <] [acking> dystopianray, nvidia 7300 gt
[10:14] <dystopianray> Masterkong: there is no way, stop using the console
[10:14] <pete83> kylecasey: hopefully it will change that, but we shall see
[10:14] <g2g591> for some reason my computer freezes on the spinning cursor right before the login screen
[10:14] <kylecasey> ok hopefully i be right back
[10:15] <dystopianray> ] [acking: i believe nvidia-glx can handle that card fine
[10:15] <Christopher> my ubuntu keeps locking up but mouse still works. system has locked without firefox running.. is this a hardware problem?
[10:15] <dyrne> g2g591: freezes after entering in login and pass?
[10:15] <Masterkong> genefitz, i'm not sure what you mean.... do you mean dpkg-reconfigure x-server? if so.. yes
[10:15] <g2g591> no before that screen
[10:15] <] [acking> dystopianray, okey i will try that
[10:15] <Yggdrasil> genii got it.... /sbin/vol_id -u
[10:15] <genefitz> Master, maybe if you try sudo dpkg-reconfigure-xorg, and follow the directions, it may help repair X-org..
[10:15] <dystopianray> ] [acking: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:16] <martyyyr> How do I get samba shares to show up in the network neighbourhood?
[10:16] <dystopianray> ] [acking: then change "nv" to "nvidia" in xorg.conf
[10:16] <] [acking> dystopianray, i know that :)
[10:16] <genii> Yggdrasil: Good :) Pass it on
[10:16] <BrightEyes> how does i erase a directory, even non empty?
[10:16] <g2g591> it freezes right before the log in screen should appear, black screen with a (movable) spinning cursor
[10:16] <genefitz> It will bring up a semi-gui based configuration agent that will help you configure your x-org properly..
[10:16] <jrib> !cli > BrightEyes (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:16] <jrib> BrightEyes: rm -r
[10:16] <genii> Got to leave, have fun all
[10:16] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: is this homework that you are trying to get us to do for you?
[10:17] <IceLink> is it possible to make ubuntu be able to play DRM-wma-files?
[10:17] <Masterkong> ok genefitz?.. i've never tried reconfigure xorg, just s-xerver
[10:17] <dystopianray> IceLink: no, not without stripping the drm somehow anyway
[10:17] <IceLink> dystopianray: okay, thanks
[10:17] <genefitz> Master it may help. It configures the video, keyboard, mouse, etc..
[10:17] <g2g591>  it freezes right before the log in screen should appear, black screen with a (movable) spinning cursor
[10:17] <dystopianray> Masterkong: reconfigure X isn't going to fix your console problems, nvidia's driver just doesn't work with it properly
[10:17] <kylecasey> ok pete83 im back
[10:17] <Masterkong> ok
[10:17] <genefitz> It goes through the whole X-Org by setting up exactly what you need,,
[10:18] <kylecasey> i have this restricted driver notice in the top bar though pete83
[10:18] <martyyyr> How do I get samba shares to show up in the network neighbourhood? Or how do I open the share otherwise?
[10:18] <Masterkong> dystopianray, so if i want my compiz, then i have to stick with the graphical runlevel
[10:18] <Masterkong> damn
[10:18] <pete83> kylecasey: ok, that sounds promising
[10:18] <genefitz> Dyst, I haven't had any issues with my NVidia drivers and console. It may be a "per-system) issue..
[10:18] <dystopianray> Masterkong: that's right
[10:18] <genefitz> "per-system" even
[10:19] <kylecasey> k i guess its a good sign then pete83
[10:19] <jenda> QUIZ! Ubuntu quiz in #ubuntu-trivia at 21:00 UTC! Be there or be square. Today's prize: 5 Ubuntu case badges.
[10:19] <dystopianray> genefitz: it may be more prevalent with certain cards or configurations
[10:19] <pete83> kylecasey: so, what about when you type: fglrxinfo
[10:19] <Masterkong> the problems are a bit erratic.. sometime it works.. and sometime it doesnet
[10:19] <Yggdrasil> genii i just need to figure out why the dam grub/ sudo apt-get upgrade keeps mislabeling the frikin uuid
[10:19] <genefitz> Dyst, that may be. It is a new issue for me.. Thanks for the info. :-)
[10:19] <RedLink> I'm currently installing Ubuntu on my new fake raid system but I was stupid enough to do a apt-get install for the ubuntu-desktop with the standard sourceslist. Is it possible to pause it and start again with my editied list? =)
[10:19] <Yggdrasil> 3rd time its happend
[10:20] <Masterkong> i have 7900gtx an glx-new
[10:20] <g2g591>  it freezes right before the log in screen should appear, black screen with a (movable) spinning cursor
[10:20] <kylecasey> pete83 now it lists ati radeon 9600 for both
[10:20] <genefitz> Master, I have a 7900gs, and haven't seen problems. Maybe an issue with the gddr3?
[10:20] <kylecasey> and the string is 8.39.4
[10:20] <jonphilpott> anyone running ubuntu laptop with a ricoh pcmcia controller?
[10:21] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: i think mine might be
[10:21] <nikin> hmm is there to convert a movie from ogg theora to anything what avidemux is capable to open? VLC is an option.. but it is a bit complicated
[10:21] <LadySerena> my expresscard controller is nvidia
[10:21] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: does it work for you?
[10:21] <pete83> kylecasey: ok, how about your framrate when you type:  fgl_glxgears
[10:21] <LadySerena> Ricoh makes the card readers
[10:21] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: it works, i will check if it is ricoh
[10:21] <genefitz> I would still, if nothing else but for giggles, try the reconfigure. Who knows, might work, might do nothing, but it never hurts to take the chance..
[10:21] <jonphilpott> let me get the exact model#, one moment.
[10:21] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: I know I have a ricoh card reader
[10:21] <D0wN> I need some help. My restricted drivers thing shows that my Atheros wireless card is in use, but I can't seem to use it as a network interface
[10:21] <linux_user400354> how can i get my home folder icon to show on my desktop, trash icon, and computer icon?
[10:21] <kylecasey> pete83 heres the first few lines Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
[10:21] <kylecasey> 898 frames in 5.0 seconds = 179.600 FPS
[10:21] <kylecasey> 2059 frames in 5.0 seconds = 411.800 FPS
[10:21] <kylecasey> 2241 frames in 5.0 seconds = 448.200 FP
[10:21] <dystopianray> D0wN: there is no interface for your card?
[10:22] <jonphilpott> yeah, my laptop has ricoh card reader, my wifes laptop has a ricoh pcmcia controller, but i get no luck with it
[10:22] <alesan> what is the app that asks for a password when opening administrative programs? I need that for a program of mine too
[10:22] <g2g591> my computer  it freezes right before the log in screen should appear, black screen with a (movable) spinning cursor
[10:22] <jrib> alesan: gksu/gksudo
[10:22] <pete83> kylecasey: well, it looks like you are getting decent performance and the problem is solved then?
[10:22] <D0wN> dystopianray: nope
[10:22] <Masterkong> ehm..  nvidia site says the current stable drivers are much newer than the ones i'm using
[10:22] <RedLink> Is it possbile to cancel/pause and then resume a apt-get command?
[10:22] <kylecasey> i hope so pete83 howd you know it was that line?
[10:23] <D0wN> dystopianray: i've tried ifconfig and iwconfig, but there is no interface for it. it usually is ath0
[10:23] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: yes I have richo pcmcia and it has always worked without issue
[10:23] <dystopianray> D0wN: ifconfig -a shows nothing?
[10:23] <LadySerena> Konqueror can't use hostnames that resolve to inet6.  How can this be fixed?
[10:23] <linux_user400354> how can i get my home folder icon to show on my desktop, trash icon, and computer icon?
[10:23] <g2g591> my computer  it freezes right before the log in screen should appear, black screen with a (movable) spinning cursor
[10:23] <pete83> kylecasey: well, I kind of guessed since your xorg.conf is weird. at least it works now!
[10:23] <genefitz> Master, i have seen the new driver out. The only issue, is I haven't seen a .deb package for it yet. And I still have issues with tarballs..
[10:23] <kylecasey> pete83 cool i have a weird xorg file
[10:23] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: it is a Richo RL5c476
[10:23] <Masterkong> are there any good tools for helping out with configuring of ALSA?
[10:23] <genefitz> <~~ by no means an expert
[10:23] <kylecasey> hopefully this works thanks pete83 i may be back later for more though
[10:23] <D0wN> Well, I haven't tried ifconfig -a yet. I'm on my windows partition at the moment. but, the network manager in Ubuntu doesn't show my wireless card either
[10:24] <PriceChild> testbot_, help
[10:24] <Masterkong> i cant seem to get my 5.1 sound working correctly
[10:24] <dystopianray> D0wN: what sort of card is it, pci? pcmcia?
[10:24] <harrison> Okay, I am getting black bars on the X/Ubuntu Alt install disk.
[10:24] <Coolranch> hello
[10:24] <pete83> kylecasey: now you can install and play tremulous, the best first person shooter
[10:24] <juano__> anyone know where i can get the audacious docklet ???
[10:24] <neverblue> i cannot play streaming music in FF, can someone help me to get it up and running?
[10:24] <pete83> kylecasey: it's in the repositories
[10:24] <harrison> I have tried 3 different video cards, all with the same result.
[10:24] <genefitz> Masterkong, which 5.1 card are you using?
[10:24] <Coolranch> Im having a problem installing ubuntu on my comp.
[10:24] <kylecasey> pete83 meaning i can try software sources or something like that?
[10:25] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: this is a RL5C475
[10:25] <Vlet> I was trying to get my 5 button mouse working (in FF) and in doing so, I seem to have done something to my session settings - I can only login with safe session... I tried to undo all changes (Xsession settings, etc) but can't find the problem.. it effects all users, not just mine.. any suggestions?
[10:25] <D0wN> dystopianray: pcmcia
[10:25] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: so i assume they'd be very similar and that yours should work
[10:25] <dystopianray> D0wN: does it appear in lspci when you plug it in?
[10:25] <dystopianray> D0wN: I have a pcmcia atheros card that works without issue
[10:25] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: no such luck, im afraid.
[10:26] <pete83> kylecasey: I mean, you can find tremulous using synaptic... it uses the quake3 engine, and a good video card helps
[10:26] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: are there any errors in dmesg when you plug in pcmcia devices?
[10:26] <pete83> kylecasey: it is an excellent test of a videocard
[10:26] <ror> hi!
[10:26] <Masterkong> genefitz, noboard sound.. ac97
[10:26] <D0wN> well, i haven't tried lspci, but it does show in the hardware list
[10:26] <kylecasey> oh ok sweet thanks pete83 let you know how it runs
[10:26] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: one moment, im just booting the machine in question. its my wifes laptop, shes interested in trying ubuntu.. but wireless is a deal breaker :)
[10:26] <martyyyr> What does samba need to be able to display its shares on the clients' network neighbourhood?
[10:26] <ror> just discovered xara (xaraxtreme.org) in synaptic; looks amazing o0
[10:26] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: wireless pcmcia card?
[10:26] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: yeah
[10:27] <Masterkong> nvidia CK804
[10:27] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: both of them work in my laptop
[10:27] <Coolranch> i keep getting the error "unable to locate rsdp" then it goes to the ubuntu splash screen and just locks up, with the caps lock key and the scroll lock key flashing
[10:27] <fuffal0> is there a way to make it so ubuntu doens't promp me for my wireless keyring password everytime it boots up?
[10:27] <dystopianray> fuffal0: pam_keyring i believe
[10:27] <Coolranch> can anyone help me with this?
[10:27] <dystopianray> martyyyr: I believe it should just work if samba is set with the same workgroup
[10:27] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Yeah, but it doesn't :)
[10:28] <dystopianray> martyyyr: do you have shares configured in samba?
[10:28] <pete83> fuffal0: yeah, if your keyring password is the same as your login password
[10:28] <Coolranch> anyone plz :S
[10:28] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Yeah, I do.
[10:28] <Lattyware> Hey all, whenever I try and run anything under wine, I get this: http://pastebin.com/d3cd5de39 - I compiled wine from source.
[10:28] <Crisss> Jest kto z Polski tu??
[10:28] <dystopianray> martyyyr: what if you manually browse to the ip address of the machine, does it work then?
[10:28] <xtknight> !pl | Crisss
[10:28] <ubotu> Crisss: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[10:29] <dystopianray> Lattyware: why not install it from a repo?
[10:29] <Coolranch> anyone :(
[10:29] <duzchip> Hi everyone
[10:29] <duzchip> i need some help
[10:29] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Well, no, but I can connect to a share in ubuntu using the smbclient.
[10:29] <duzchip> I bought a new Dell Inspiron 1501 and installed ubuntu 7.04 on it
[10:29] <duzchip> works great
[10:29] <panagiotis> hi
[10:29] <duzchip> but i dont wanna use Gnome so i installed fluxbox and modified it as i wanted it
[10:29] <duzchip> now comes the only problem
[10:29] <Lattyware> dystopianray: I need the newer version to get some stuff to work.
[10:29] <dystopianray> Masterkong: the latest nvidia driver 100.14.11 has a changelog entry about a vesa console fix
[10:29] <Prendy> Ok
[10:29] <Prendy> Eeerm
[10:29] <duzchip> my Fn -button wont work
[10:29] <dystopianray> Lattyware: use the official wine repo
[10:29] <genefitz> Masterkong, I am searching for a solution right now.. give me a moment, and I can see what I can find..
[10:29] <dystopianray> Lattyware: it is always up to date
[10:30] <duzchip> Fn + PageUp == volume up
[10:30] <Prendy> How much space does ubuntu take up
[10:30] <Prendy> Would I be able to install it on Drive C:?
[10:30] <duzchip> but it wont work
[10:30] <Lattyware> dystopianray: I'm talking GIT source here.
[10:30] <duzchip> anyone got some suggestions?
[10:30] <dystopianray> Prendy: you'd probably want about 2GB minimum
[10:30] <dystopianray> Prendy: you can install it on any drive with space for another partition
[10:30] <Coolranch> i keep getting the error "unable to locate rsdp" then it goes to the ubuntu splash screen and just locks up, with the caps lock key and the scroll lock key flashing
[10:31] <pete83> fuffal0: follow the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2776815
[10:31] <Prendy> Anyone?
[10:31] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: i get "pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0", and nothing else
[10:31] <martyyyr> Do I have to make an exception rule for samba in my firewall?
[10:31] <dyrne> Prendy: ubuntu will need to resize your existing window partition if you dont have any free unparitioned space. as to how much room..id say 4-5 gigs to be safe at least. 2-3 is minimum i guess
[10:31] <dystopianray> Lattyware: I'd suggest trying an official deb to see if it works
[10:31] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: does the card appear in lspci?
[10:31] <duzchip> Does anyone know if you can bind the Fn-key on a laptop in ubuntu?
[10:31] <genefitz> Masterkong, are you using Conexiant?
[10:31] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: nope
[10:32] <harrison> Okay, I have been trying for the last two days to install X/Ubuntu from an alt cd on one of my computers.
[10:32] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: hrrm that is strange
[10:32] <harrison> I keep getting black bars during the install however.
[10:32] <harrison> I have used 3 different video cards.
[10:32] <dystopianray> duzchip: as long as it generates a scancode, yes
[10:32] <jonphilpott> dystopianray: my thoughts exactly
[10:33] <duzchip> dystopianray: how do i check that please?
[10:33] <dystopianray> jonphilpott: perhaps try a different livecd if you have one, to see if the behaviour is different
[10:33] <harrison> Okay, I have been trying for the last two days to install X/Ubuntu from an alt cd on one of my computers.
[10:33] <harrison> I keep getting black bars during the install however.
[10:33] <harrison> I have used 3 different video cards.
[10:33] <jonphilpott> this is 7.04
[10:33] <whonicca> is there a file on ubuntu which blocks certain ip/host from having any kind of access to your computer?
[10:33] <Prendy> Oh ok then
[10:33] <whonicca> i cant login to my computer anymore via ssh from work =*(
[10:33] <GyrosGeier> hi
[10:33] <Prendy> I have 6GB
[10:33] <Prendy> :D
[10:34] <GyrosGeier> I'm trying to build a 4.2 cross compiler for armel under Dapper
[10:34] <Masterkong> conexiant genefitz ?
[10:34] <genefitz> Masterkong, have you tried to use your windows drivers under wrapper or wine?
[10:34] <dystopianray> duzchip: sudo showkeys
[10:34] <martyyyr> Anyone? What could possibly stop samba from making the shares list available to the network neighbourhood?
[10:34] <Prendy> Is alchohol a safe program to burn the iso onto the cd?
[10:34] <ShackJack> Hi all - is there a command line to put the computer is suspend mode (like if I want suspend from C/L). Looked around but can seem to find it...
[10:34] <genefitz> Masterkong, Conexiant audio chipset..
[10:34] <_david> not if you intend to drive after Prendy ;)
[10:34] <dystopianray> genefitz: the device doesn't appear in lspci, so that must be solved before any driver will work
[10:35] <genefitz> Oh, I see.. I didn't understand...
[10:35] <Masterkong> dunno.. i have a abit a8n32sli or something motherboard
[10:35] <dystopianray> ShackJack: /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh
[10:35] <Masterkong> i think its nvidia chipset
[10:35] <dinochopins> Hi. Can I use single sign on from gnome login manager agains Win2003 Active Directory ?
[10:35] <Prendy> Ububtu is gonna take forever to download with my internet connection
[10:35] <ShackJack> dystopianray: Ahh. thank - not so much command as script ;)
[10:36] <Prendy> :P
[10:36] <] [acking> where is the problem? i have nvidia drivers and they worked perfectly until i updated ubuntu now after restart x server doesn`t start unless i reinstall driver, but after restart it crashes again
[10:36] <] [acking> my video gard is nvidia 7300gt
[10:36] <] [acking> card*
[10:36] <dystopianray> ] [acking: what was updated to make it stop working?
[10:36] <ShackJack> dystopianray: Do I want "hibernate.sh" or "sleep.sh" for suspend to RAM -- seems like the latter?
[10:36] <Coolranch> can any one help me plz
[10:37] <dystopianray> ShackJack: oh yes, most likely
[10:37] <] [acking> dystopianray i don`t know
[10:37] <] [acking> i think
[10:37] <] [acking> kernel
[10:37] <dystopianray> ShackJack: open them up to see what they do
[10:37] <unagi> hello everyone
[10:37] <ShackJack> dystopianray: :)
[10:37] <dystopianray> ] [acking: are you using the nvidia driver from the official repos?
[10:37] <m3lodius> hello
[10:37] <harrison> Okay, what does it mean when during an install, it says "Segmentation Fault"?
[10:37] <Goran_> does ubuntu support wg111v2?
[10:37] <] [acking> yes now i installed from original repos same problem
[10:38] <genefitz> Masterkong, you can try  help.ubuntu.com/community/sound
[10:38] <dystopianray> Goran_: what wireless chip does it use?
[10:38] <Goran_> rtl8187
[10:38] <genefitz> That may be able to give some assistance
[10:38] <harrison> Okay, what does it mean when during an install, it says "Segmentation Fault"?
[10:38] <dystopianray> Goran_: it has a driver for that chip, so it should work
[10:38] <] [acking> dystopianray: (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module;
[10:38] <harrison> It happens right after it loads "nbootloader" or something like that.
[10:38] <dystopianray> ] [acking: did you install nvidia-glx ?
[10:38] <] [acking> xserver log
[10:38] <Coolranch> anyone plz it keeps locking up on me
[10:38] <] [acking> dystopianray: yes
[10:39] <genefitz> Cool, what keeps locking?
[10:39] <Coolranch> when i try to install
[10:39] <] [acking> dystopianray: it was original nvidia drivers from web site before
[10:39] <Coolranch> i get the ubuntu splash screen with the orange bar and it just freezes
[10:39] <harrison> Okay, what does it mean when during an install, it says "Segmentation Fault"?
[10:39] <harrison> It happens right after it loads "nbootloader" or something like that.
[10:39] <dystopianray> ] [acking: you'll need matching drivers and -glx package
[10:39] <dystopianray> ] [acking: make sure you are using the ubuntu nvidia drivers
[10:39] <Prendy> What programs would you guys reccomend when I get ubuntu?
[10:39] <genefitz> Coolranch, have you tried a fresh load?
[10:39] <Coolranch> and i have a flashing caps lock and flashing scroll lock buttons
[10:40] <dystopianray> harrison: a segmentation fault is basically the program crashing
[10:40] <duzchip> how do i bind key-values as 0xf3 and 0x73?
[10:40] <Coolranch> thats what im trying todo,
[10:40] <dystopianray> Prendy: what do you want to do?
[10:40] <harrison> dystopianray, why does it keep happening?
[10:40] <] [acking> dystopianray: do you think it will fix that and how can i do that
[10:40] <genefitz> Coolranch, Okay, you aren't even getting to live CD yet?
[10:40] <Coolranch> no
[10:40] <dystopianray> harrison: could be any number of reasons, software error, hardware fault, etc..
[10:40] <harrison> I have tried 3 different video cards, and 3 different CDs.
[10:40] <Lattyware> Hey all, whenever I try and run anything under wine, I get this: http://pastebin.com/d3cd5de39 - I compiled wine from source (Tested with version from Repo, and still get the error). Why is this?
[10:40] <dystopianray> ] [acking: I think you just need to reinstall the restricted modules package
[10:41] <dystopianray> harrison: what makes you think the video card is what is causing it?
[10:41] <Masterkong> dystopianray, is there any reason why i shouldnt install the 100.14.11 driver from nvidias website?
[10:41] <Coolranch> its not rly getting anywhere
[10:41] <] [acking> dystopianray: yes it can be true how?
[10:41] <genefitz> Coolranch, okay, cool, lets start with the basics first. do you think you may have gotten a bad burn to CD?
[10:41] <dystopianray> Masterkong: it's not guaranteed to work with ubuntu
[10:41] <Masterkong> ok
[10:41] <Anlar> Lattyware: define "run anything" ?
[10:41] <genefitz> I know it sounds foolish, but when live won't boot, 9 out of 10, it is a corrupt burn..
[10:41] <Coolranch> possible, i got the cd stright from ubuntu
[10:41] <harrison> dystopianray, before I started getting the Segmentation fault, I would get vertical black bars on the screen at the same point.
[10:41] <] [acking> dystopianray: yes it can be true, how can i do taht?
[10:42] <] [acking> that
[10:42] <Coolranch> i didnt dl the os
[10:42] <dystopianray> ] [acking: sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-restricted-modules-generic (that should work)
[10:42] <Prendy> I hope ubuntu will work for me O_O
[10:42] <dystopianray> harrison: have you tried doing a memtest?
[10:42] <Coolranch> and when i try to run check cd for defects it locks up
[10:42] <whonicca> is there a file on ubuntu which blocks certain ip/host from having any kind of access to your computer? i cant login to my computer anymore via ssh from work
[10:42] <harrison> dystopianray, no, I haven't?
[10:42] <dystopianray> Prendy: you asked for program recommendations, what exactly do you want to do with your computer?
[10:42] <dystopianray> harrison: well you should
[10:42] <dystopianray> harrison: it should be one of the options when booting the livecd
[10:42] <genefitz> Coolranch, well for safety measures, I would go to Ubuntu.com and try to re-download the wanted version, burn it to disc, and see what happens..
[10:42] <Lattyware> Anlar: The three things (uTorrent, and two installers) I have tried to run with 'wine /path/to/file.exe'
[10:43] <Coolranch> i can do that
[10:43] <genefitz> Even as it may seem unlikely that it would be a bad burn from Ubuntu, hey, it happens..
[10:43] <Anlar> whonicca: no, although ssh daemon might block some account for havign many unsuccesful logon attempts for a few minutes
[10:43] <joshjosh> Why use utorrent when you can use deluge?
[10:43] <dystopianray> whonicca: what changed since it last worked?
[10:43] <harrison> dystopianray, I'm using the Alternate, if it makes a difference.
[10:43] <kayzu> okay, I just did a clean install of windows xp and feisty on the same hdd for the second time and norton partitionmagic complains about errors in the lba and chs values every time ! why?
[10:43] <Coolranch> is there anything i can try while it dls
[10:43] <dystopianray> harrison: i'm not sure if it does, i imagine it'd still have memtest
[10:43] <Prendy> Well
[10:43] <harrison> dystopianray, Okay, I'll check right now.
[10:43] <barbagrossa> hi
[10:43] <Coolranch> what if there is an OS on the comp and the hd isnt formated
[10:43] <unagi> how do i see the output of the terminal thats running in the background?
[10:43] <Prendy> I dunno
[10:43] <Prendy> Does Photoshop work on ubuntu?
[10:43] <kayzu> when i let it fix the errors it still labels the whole drive as bad
[10:43] <joshjosh> Alright, how do I get my ipod to be recognized while plugged in to my usb?
[10:43] <whonicca> dystopianray, id hate to say i dont really know, i know others on the outside can try to connect and get prompted by ssh
[10:43] <Prendy> And qhat good music players are there?
[10:43] <barbagrossa> someone can give some support for me?
[10:43] <joshjosh> prendy: you can use it in wine
[10:43] <Anlar> Lattyware: utorrent will not work. you should check the appdb from winehq.com, many applications have problems still.. and there might be work-arounds described there
[10:44] <barbagrossa> I have one question
[10:44] <dystopianray> whonicca: it is probably a firewall at your place of work
[10:44] <whonicca> dont know if my job killed my access to my home comp, but i still can ssh to other servers
[10:44] <genefitz> Coolranch, if you can't even get Live CD to run, there isn't a whole lot you will be able to do..
[10:44] <harrison> dystopianray, I'm running it right now.
[10:44] <joshjosh> Prendy: Amarok is amazing.
[10:44] <dystopianray> whonicca: do you have to connect to the internet via a proxy?
[10:44] <barbagrossa> how on hell do I change the resolution of the GDM greeter?
[10:44] <Lattyware> Anlar: uTorrent has had Platinum ratings for ages. It runs perfectly.
[10:44] <Coolranch> the computer is a mmx 333 so its pretty old but i got suse 8.1 on there just fine
[10:44] <Masterkong> Prendy, but if youre moving to linux.. you should check out gimp
[10:44] <Prendy> Oh ok
[10:44] <whonicca> well at work i dont think i do, computers are just running and are online =\
[10:44] <duzchip> so there is no one who knows how to make use of the Fn-key on a laptop if i'm using another window manager than gnome?
[10:44] <genefitz> Bright side, CoolRanch, if you are on high speed, it only takes about 15 minutes to an hour to download (respectively)
[10:44] <Prendy> So I can use itunes in wine as well?
[10:44] <dystopianray> Prendy: I think photoshop can sort of barely work in wine, but in general it does not work
[10:45] <Prendy> :O
[10:45] <dystopianray> Prendy: no itunes does not work in wine
[10:45] <Coolranch> can do
[10:45] <joshjosh> Prendy: You won't want to use iTunes after you use Amarok
[10:45] <Coolranch> ill start dling it
[10:45] <RedLink> How do you save the changes in vi (visudo)?
[10:45] <barbagrossa> rythymbox is great also
[10:45] <Masterkong> Prendy, amarok is THE KDE player,., i'm looking for a wothy gtk replacement but i havent found one yet
[10:45] <mc44> dystopianray: version 4 or something does ;)
[10:45] <shavex> compiz fusion question.  I just updated today and now when i try to change my animations it doesnt let me
[10:45] <dystopianray> Prendy: i'd agree that amarok is better than itunes, but if you have content you have downloaded from the itunes music store, then you are out of luck
[10:45] <Anlar> Lattyware: oh. you got then like compiz/fusion running?
[10:45] <genefitz> Okay Coolranch, if you still have problems, come back and ask..
[10:45] <Lattyware> Anlar: Or rather, should do.
[10:45] <harrison> dystopianray, do you know if there are any problems with Linux and the VIA KT133 chipset?
[10:45] <dystopianray> harrison: no idea, look on google
[10:45] <Prendy> Oh
[10:45] <jrib> RedLink: :w   but 'man visudo' will tell you how to use an editor like nano instead of vi with it
[10:46] <genefitz> Another thing you may try is a cold boot. turn off the computer and give it another try from a cold start..
[10:46] <Lattyware> Anlar: No. Xinerama, with official drivers, but nothing else.
[10:46] <Prendy> Can I use my programs from windows and not have to install them again
[10:46] <Coolranch> ill try that quick
[10:46] <Prendy> Oh, I don't get them from the store :P
[10:46] <dystopianray> Prendy: you may be able to
[10:46] <Anlar> Lattyware: can you try with the other drivers for once.. because where the crash happens is looks suspicious.. and if it works, report it to winehq's boogzilla
[10:46] <kayzu> could someone please tell me why the ubuntu install ALWAYS messes up the CHS/LBA values on my disk?
[10:47] <genefitz> Another thing you may try is a cold boot. turn off the computer and give it another try from a cold start..
[10:47] <genefitz> oops, repeated...lol
[10:47] <Prendy> Oh ok
[10:47] <genefitz> Sorry, I hit the wrong buttons..
[10:47] <dystopianray> kayzu: those values are arbitrary, they don't mean anything to a modern OS
[10:47] <Prendy> Good :D
[10:47] <dystopianray> Prendy: appdb.winehq.org
[10:47] <joshjosh> When I connect things to my USB ports they don't register..I have to connect them then restart to get it to work. Anyone have any ideas?
[10:47] <dystopianray> Prendy: you can use that site to check how well certain programs work in wine
[10:47] <Coolranch> do i want it to boot from cd?
[10:47] <Anlar> Lattyware: it really seems to me that it crashes due some problem with popping up the first windows...
[10:48] <Prendy> Phew, this download is gonna take a few days of me being on the comp...
[10:48] <joshjosh> Prendy: What download?
[10:48] <Coolranch> or is that where im running into problems
[10:48] <kayzu> dystopianray: but partitionmagic keeps complaining about them and labels my drive as 'bad' thus i can't use it anymore
[10:48] <Lattyware> Anlar: Great. I have had problems with being unable to use GLX stuff with my tripple Xinerama arrangement.
[10:48] <genefitz> Josh, depending on the USB device, it may not always auto-detect.
[10:48] <dystopianray> kayzu: sounds like a problem with partition magic
[10:48] <Lattyware> Anlar: So even more fun here then :/
[10:48] <joshjosh> genefitz: It doesn't work for anything. ipod, keyboard, mouse...anything.
[10:48] <genefitz> Coolranch, yes, boot from CD
[10:48] <dystopianray> kayzu: try another partitioning program
[10:48] <jrattner1> Question: Why would postfix not deliver mail for just one user, and keep it in queue
[10:48] <jrattner1> ?
[10:48] <joshjosh> i'm on an HP dv6110us using feisty
[10:48] <Nembie563> I am trying to run airsnort, but it is not picking anything up. I am not sure how to configure the program. How do I know what to set the network device and driver type to?
[10:49] <dystopianray> kayzu: like gparted which should be on the ubuntu livecd
[10:49] <genefitz> Then when the Ubuntu screen comes up, use the default option..
[10:49] <Anlar> Lattyware: triple xinerama? that's not really possible afaik.. in the past the graphics adapters supported 3d stuff only on ONE head, and only the new ones can handle TWO...
[10:49] <Coolranch> but im still getting the error unable to locate rsdb
[10:49] <dystopianray> Nembie563: what sort of card do you have and what driver does it use?
[10:49] <Anlar> Lattyware: it's more hardware design decision
[10:49] <kayzu> dystopianray: acronis gives me the same errors. and even ubuntu when i boot to it
[10:49] <martyyyr> How do I change the DNS name of my system?
[10:50] <Anlar> Lattyware: unless if you have multiple adapter cards?
[10:50] <kayzu> not sure if that was afer partitionmagic 'fixed' the errors though..
[10:50] <genefitz> Coolranch, yup, I am thinking you have a bad burn, but hold on, let me check the wiki..
[10:50] <Lattyware> Anlar: No, as in, I can't get GLX to run on any of my screens when using all of my monitors. Not over all of them.
[10:50] <Coolranch> ok thx
[10:50] <Nembie563> dystopianray: I don't know. How do I figure that out? Why does the program need this info?
[10:50] <unagi> how do you make a textfile executable
[10:50] <heydabop> I having trouble getting my laptop running Ubuntu 6.06 to connect to my wireless network.
[10:50] <Anlar> Lattyware: X tries to enable it for all with the same money and fails utterly? bah. that sucks
[10:50] <dystopianray> Nembie563: use lspci to see what chip the card uses
[10:50] <dystopianray> unagi: chmod +x file
[10:51] <unagi> ty
[10:51] <Anlar> Lattyware: but if you could really start X with just one head enabled and try wine.. it's quite possible that there's some propblem there :/
[10:51] <Lattyware> Anlar: Something like that. Anyway, I'll switch my xorg.conf over to my gaming one (just removes two of the monitors) and give it a shot.
[10:51] <unagi> xim confused
[10:51] <unagi> it still doesnt execute
[10:51] <dystopianray> unagi: what is the error?
[10:51] <Nembie563> dystopianray: what is ispci?
[10:51] <_david> Nembie563, lspci
[10:51] <unagi> no error it just displays the text file
[10:52] <martyyyr> Do I need to install a DNS server on my ubuntu server box to make its name known to other computers in the network?
[10:52] <Anlar> Lattyware: I'm happy I have xbox360 for games :) no tweaking the linux endlessly and desparately to get at least something running :)
[10:52] <dystopianray> Nembie563: open a terminal and run: $ lspci | grep -i network
[10:52] <XLV> unagi, or you can run it with the shell you are using eg bash "sh text.txt"
[10:52] <unagi> brb
[10:52] <Anlar> martyyyr: no, but you should have dns server that you can add entries to somewhere. or one that supports dynamic dns
[10:52] <panfist> is there a way i can type multiple commands in the terminal so that they will execute one after another?
[10:52] <kayzu> dystopianray: acronis gives me the same errors. and even ubuntu when i boot to it
[10:52] <heydabop> Could someone help me?
[10:52] <nich0s> OK, I leave my ubuntu box and running day and night, but it will start to slow down as if something it building up or I have a memory leak. How would I go about testing why my box is slowing down?
[10:52] <dystopianray> martyyyr: you need a dns server somewhere on your lan, or put entries manually into /etc/hosts
[10:52] <heydabop> I having trouble getting my laptop running Ubuntu 6.06 to connect to my wireless network.
[10:52] <Prendy> :P
[10:52] <dystopianray> heydabop: what is the wifi chip?
[10:52] <dystopianray> kayzu: what errors?
[10:53] <Prendy> Can you play PS2 games on linux :P
[10:53] <kayzu> wron CHS/LBA values etc
[10:53] <_david> Prendy, if you have a PS/2 mouse and keyboard, yeah ;)
[10:53] <dystopianray> Prendy: you may be able to get some sort of emulator running, there is nothing in the repos for ps2 emulation though
[10:53] <Anlar> nich0s: first step is to get rid of firefox :)
[10:53] <Prendy> Eeerm, what will the choice be like at boot? Will it be, Run Window XP or Run Ubuntu?
[10:53] <martyyyr> Anlar, dystopianray: thanks
[10:54] <heydabop> dystopianray, I'm not sure.
[10:54] <nich0s> Anlar: And replace with...?
[10:54] <dystopianray> panfist: put ';' between them
[10:54] <Nembie563> dystopianray: I enter that into the terminal and it says command not found
[10:54] <panfist> dystopianray y
[10:54] <panfist> ty
[10:54] <kayzu> dystopianray: not matching CHS/LBA values etc
[10:54] <heydabop> But I configure and enable eth1, and the it deactivates it as soon as IO press ok.
[10:54] <doom_ster> hey. 1 question. i am trying to cable connect my sonyericsson mobile to mu ubuntu system to get some files from the memory stick it has. it should be automounted but isent . any ideas?
[10:54] <Prendy> Oh
[10:54] <unagi> ok this is getting really annoying.........this worked before i reformatted.......can anyone tell me why i can execute this text file in the terminal but i cant set sessions to do it at startup?
[10:54] <dystopianray> Nembie563: do not type the '$'
[10:54] <genefitz> Coolranch, that looks like an uncommon error. Again, try a download and re-burn..
[10:54] <hwilde> is there a way to do fractional crontab entries?  like to run every 30s
[10:54] <dystopianray> heydabop: run: $ lspci | grep -i network
[10:54] <genefitz> I am having a feeling that it is a CD read error
[10:54] <Nembie563> dystopianray: I didn't type the $
[10:54] <Coolranch> ok it wasnt listed i wonder if maybe its the computere?
[10:54] <dystopianray> hwilde: */30
[10:54] <heydabop> Ok.
[10:54] <heydabop> Just a sec.
[10:55] <dystopianray> hwilde: I think that is how it is done
[10:55] <hwilde> dystopianray, um isn't that every 30 minutes
[10:55] <unagi> i was getting i/o errors when i was trying to install ubuntu.........i had to redownload
[10:55] <unagi> ok this is getting really annoying.........this worked before i reformatted.......can anyone tell me why i can execute this text file in the terminal but i cant set sessions to do it at startup?
[10:55] <dyrne> doom_ster: plug it in then type 'dmesg | tail' you should see an sda or sdb or whatever then sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/  <--might work
[10:55] <genefitz> Coolranch, it seems uncommon to me. What kind of computer are you loading it on?
[10:55] <heydabop> dystopianray, I ran it.
[10:55] <panagiotis> someone to asking something plz
[10:56] <dystopianray> heydabop: and the result?
[10:56] <hwilde> dystopianray, um yeah that seems to be every 30 minutes (I put it in crontab and it hasn't ran yet).
[10:56] <Coolranch> it an old pionex lol mmx 333
[10:56] <hwilde> dystopianray, */1 is every minute
[10:56] <Lattyware> Anlar: Yeah, it works now.
[10:56] <dystopianray> hwilde: yeah i think it is, i'm not sure if you can do things by seconds with cron
[10:56] <heydabop> It says Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[10:56] <Nembie563> dystopianray: Alright I entered that and it shoots out this: 03:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection (rev 05)
[10:56] <alcraig> anyone know how to fix ubuntu when it freezes on screensavers?
[10:56] <hwilde> dystopianray, yeah neither am i that's why im here
[10:56] <jarle> I use "mount 192.168.1.100:/biggen2/dreambox /hdd" to mount an nfs share. However the ownership of the /hdd dir is changed after the mount, how can I stop this from happening?
[10:57] <hwilde> alcraig, disable the random screensaver and set it to blank screen
[10:57] <Anlar> Lattyware: damn :( report it then.. :/
[10:57] <Lattyware> Anlar: Ugh. It's so annoying twinview won't work across cards. Twinview worked so well.
[10:57] <dystopianray> Nembie563: ok, that card should work fine
[10:57] <alcraig> ok
[10:57] <alcraig> i'll try that thanks
[10:57] <Lattyware> Anlar: Where would I report it to?
[10:57] <unagi> ok i dont know what i did to fix it but it works now
[10:57] <dystopianray> Nembie563: the interface is probably eth1
[10:57] <heydabop> dystopianray, Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)

[10:57] <Anlar> Lattyware: launchpad (from where it will get reported to winehq) or to winehq
[10:57] <genefitz> Coolranch, on an older computer, you may have issues with a newer version, You may want to look at  lighter model.
[10:57] <Nembie563>  dystopianray: so what do I set network device and driver type to?
[10:57] <panagiotis> eiste malakes oloi sas
[10:57] <dystopianray> heydabop: did you get firmware for it? or are you using ndiswrapper?
[10:58] <heydabop> ?
[10:58] <hwilde> dystopianray, ifconfig -a  will show all devices
[10:58] <dystopianray> Nembie563: what are the available options?
[10:58] <adrian> can somebody help me to set up a Hauppage HVR-1110 hybrid tv card?
[10:58] <heydabop> What?
[10:58] <doom_ster> dyme, it requires from me to specify a filesystem, though i dunno what filesystem the memcard has
[10:58] <Lattyware> Anlar: OK, thanks. Over to kTorrent I guess. Azureus is way too bloated, uTorrent won't work across my monitors... Shame kTorrent's DHT support sucks.
[10:58] <genefitz> Check the system requirements before trying to load.. stand by and I will get them..
[10:58] <Prendy> Eeerm, what will the choice be like at boot? Will it be, Run Window XP or Run Ubuntu?
[10:58] <panagiotis> gamieste geloioi karagiozides
[10:58] <doom_ster> i used vfat and nothing :(
[10:58] <Agiofws> hi
[10:58] <adrian> please, please
[10:58] <Agiofws> hey what the packet to install gcc in ubuntu ?
[10:58] <bruenig> Lattyware, deluge...
[10:58] <heydabop> dystopianray, I'm just using the Networking Administrative tool.
[10:58] <jarle> adrian: maybe have a look in #linuxtv ?
[10:58] <Horizon> Will ubuntu load by default settings in VMWare Workstation 6?
[10:58] <_david> sudo apt-get install gcc ?
[10:58] <Agiofws> hey whats the packet to install gcc in ubuntu ?
[10:58] <dystopianray> heydabop: i'll take that as a 'no', for broadcom cards, you need to install firmware, or you nee to setup ndiswrapper, they do not work out of the box
[10:58] <Coolranch> ok what does the desktop edition have that the server edition doesnt? or vise virsa
[10:58] <bruenig> Agiofws, apt-get install gcc
[10:58] <Agiofws> _david,  nah its somethin else
[10:58] <heydabop> O.
[10:58] <dyrne> adrian: best bet is a google search like 'site:ubuntuforums.org hauppage hvr-1110'
[10:58] <Horizon> I tried it in microsoft virtual machine 2007 and the graphics got all jacked
[10:58] <Lattyware> bruenig: Last time I tried deluge it was really incomplete, and lacked features and gave me far slower speeds.
[10:58] <Agiofws> bruenig,  are you sure ?
[10:59] <dystopianray> Agiofws: you'll likely want to install 'build-essential'
[10:59] <Anlar> Lattyware: dht is great... azureus is not bad, if you get the newest jre and tweak it a bit.. it used to be worse, especially the completely crappy gcj version
[10:59] <heydabop> How do I do that dystopianray?
[10:59] <bruenig> Lattyware, lacked what?
[10:59] <bruenig> !info gcc
[10:59] <ubotu> gcc: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.1.2-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 5 kB, installed size 64 kB
[10:59] <dystopianray> !broadcom | heydabop
[10:59] <ubotu> heydabop: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:59] <bruenig> Agiofws, yes
[10:59] <hwilde> !ndiswrapper | heydabop
[10:59] <Prendy> Eeerm, what will the choice be like at boot? Will it be, Run Window XP or Run Ubuntu?
[10:59] <mcscruff> i was kung foo fighting
[10:59] <bruenig> Lattyware, you realize also that clients have nothing really to do with speeds right?
[10:59] <dyrne> doom_ster: it shouldnt ask if it is that is prob an issue but a mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt   or -t vfat
[10:59] <heydabop> Thanks dystopianray
[10:59] <genefitz> Coolranch, how much memory does your computer have?
[11:00] <BrightEyes> i want to make ls print all the files whose names have either 3 or 4 or 5 characters. in grep you can use grep '[.{3,5}' . is there something similar in ls?
[11:00] <Lattyware> Anlar: Yeah, but with Xinerama sucking up 70% CPU (from my overclocked to 3GHz C2D E6600 :() already, It's about as viable as running uTorrent.
[11:00] <Nembie563> Dystopianray: Network device: eth0 or eth1. Driver type: wlan-ng, Host-AP/Orinoco, and other
[11:00] <Anlar> Lattyware: xinerama sucking cpu? wtf :) ah, that's... bad
[11:00] <jetole> hey guys
[11:00] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: why do you need to do this? we cannot do your homework for you here
[11:00] <hwilde> BrightEyes, run ls | grep
[11:00] <Lattyware> bruenig: Rubbish. Better support for encryption, and DHT have massive effects, finding more peers and bypassing blocking.
[11:00] <dystopianray> Nembie563: eth1, other
[11:00] <martyyyr> Anyone have an idea about why my I have to restart my firewall sometimes to get my internet connection back?
[11:00] <BrightEyes> hwilde without using grep???
[11:01] <dystopianray> martyyyr: iptables?
[11:01] <Coolranch> looks like 128mb
[11:01] <dystopianray> BrightEyes: man ls
[11:01] <Nembie563> systopieanray: Alright, I selected those options, hit start and nothing happens
[11:01] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Well, shorewall, but shorewall uses iptables, yes.
[11:01] <factorx> How can I create a random file of 1 GiB in size?
[11:01] <Lattyware> Anlar: I was under the impression it always sucked CPU cycles?
[11:01] <dystopianray> martyyyr: no idea, sorry
[11:01] <Lattyware> Anlar: Is there something wrong there?
[11:01] <BrightEyes> dystopianray i tried that and i didnt find anything
[11:01] <hwilde> BrightEyes, you need to learn about piping output of one command to another.  type in     ls | grep <pattern>
[11:01] <genefitz> Coolranch, in that case you need to go to Ubuntu.com, and download the "Alternate install" disk.
[11:01] <dyrne> factorx: dd
[11:01] <Anlar> factorx: dd if=/dev/urandom of=myfile.txt bs=1 count=1000000 for instance :)
[11:01] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Well, what if I had only iptables?
[11:01] <Coolranch> ok
[11:02] <Coolranch> where do i find that on the web site
[11:02] <genefitz> You will have to use the alternate install because graphical install requires 192 MB ram..
[11:02] <factorx> dyrne, Anlar, thank you
[11:02] <hwilde> !alternate | Coolranch
[11:02] <ubotu> Coolranch: 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
[11:02] <genefitz> That may be your issue
[11:02] <dystopianray> factorx: dd if=/dev/urandom of=random bs=1M count=1024
[11:02] <bruenig> Lattyware, dht has an effect but that is it, clients other than that have nothing to do with speed. They have default settings but if you set the peer numbers and connection numbers and all of that the same on every client, you will get the same speeds, the myth about clients affecting speed comes from those who don't realize you are suppose to configure it to fit your settings
[11:02] <Anlar> Lattyware: it shouldn't really suck cpu cycles, although I have used only two instead of three.. and it really did not have any performance hit at all
[11:02] <bruenig> Lattyware, deluge has dht by the way
[11:03] <kayzu> For the CHS/LBA values, I just found this page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/8322
[11:03] <dystopianray> martyyyr: i'm not sure why your internet connection would randomly stop working
[11:03] <Creeture> On factorx's question, any reason the GNU stuff doesn't contain a mkfile equivalent?
[11:03] <Tainted-Palms> anyone here that can help me install wine?
[11:03] <kayzu> I'll try that now
[11:03] <genefitz> Coolranch, bright side, after the install, it should run with little issue..
[11:03] <hwilde> martyyyr, uninstall network-manager it sucks.
[11:03] <_david> Does the alternate ubuntu have OEM mode like Kubuntu?
[11:03] <hwilde> !wine | Tainted-Palms
[11:03] <ubotu> Tainted-Palms: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:03] <jetole> I installed windows vista on dual boot system recently, the partition was made for vista on the first partition when ubuntu was first installed and everything worked fine, I now installed windows vista on the first partition which was empty, it boots fine, I booted into ubuntu a couple times to re installed grub while using the ubuntu live installer CD but nothing happens, I took an image of the original bootloader and tried dd'ing it back and I have ...
[11:03] <jetole> ... also tried running grub and the windows Vista boot loader still pops up every time yet the second partition (which contains /boot) is un touched and everything looks proper except every time I install grub it doesn't seem to run after a reboot, any ideas?
[11:03] <Coolranch> ok where do i find that on the web side im on the download portion of the site
[11:03] <hwilde> !fixgrub | jetole
[11:03] <Lattyware> bruenig: Encryption. My ISP blocks BT traffic, so I have to use encryption, that makes a big difference, does Deluge support that?
[11:04] <martyyyr> dystopianray: Well, if I reload the iptable tules, the connection is back.
[11:04] <bruenig> Lattyware, yes
[11:04] <ubotu> jetole: 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
[11:04] <martyyyr> hwilde: Then what should I use?
[11:04] <kayzu> another thing, how do i stop GRUB from overwriting the mbr while installing?
[11:04] <bruenig> Lattyware, you must have used it when it was really young
[11:04] <bruenig> Lattyware, it has blocklists, dht, encryption, all that jazz
[11:04] <hwilde> martyyyr, I just set it manually with /etc/network/interfaces   network-manager locks up.
[11:04] <Lattyware> bruenig: Yes, maybe.
[11:04] <kayzu> I didn't find any option for that during install
[11:04] <Lattyware> bruenig: I'll check it out again.
[11:04] <Lattyware> Anlar: Hmm... Well, my desktop is about 4200x1200 or something.
[11:04] <vonderer> hi there
[11:04] <martyyyr> hwilde: Excuse my ignorance, but what does this network-manager do exactly that I can configure in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[11:05] <genefitz> Coolranch, Right under "start download" there is a check box for "Alternate desktop CD"
[11:05] <vonderer> I want to compare to wavs, is there anyway to do it in ubuntu?
[11:05] <hwilde> martyyyr, I don't know but network-manager sucks IMHO so I uninstall it and then my comp doesn't lock up anymore.
[11:05] <Anlar> Lattyware: yeah but on normal desktop use.. there are hardly no changes and most of it are accelerated primitives and/or compositing anyways, which means load mostly for the gpus...
[11:05] <genefitz> Coolranch, see it?
[11:05] <dystopianray> vonderer: what sort of comparison?
[11:05] <Coolranch> yep found it
[11:05] <martyyyr> hwilde: I see..What did you put in your interfcacs file tho?
[11:05] <vonderer> dystopianray: spectrum
[11:05] <Anlar> Lattyware: without having 3d stuff going on, or a lot of video etc, you shouldn't get more than couple % of cpu used
[11:05] <dystopianray> vonderer: audacity can probably do it
[11:05] <Coolranch> ok dling it now
[11:05] <Coolranch> so i run that first then
[11:06] <hwilde> martyyyr, the necessary IP, netmask, gateway,  ssid, key
[11:06] <Coolranch> the live cd?
[11:06] <genefitz> Coolranch, fair warning, the text install may be a little confusing, keep a notepad with you while installing to write down anything that you may need to remember..
[11:06] <vonderer> dystopianray: I actually want to convert flac and mp3 files and compare the frequencies
[11:06] <dystopianray> vonderer: as I said, audacity can most likely do what you want
[11:06] <martyyyr> hwilde: Just that? I thought you had to do that when using network-manager as well...
[11:06] <genefitz> When I did the alternate install for 6.06, I got lost, forgot my password, and had to re-install...
[11:06] <vonderer> dystopianray: thanks a lot
[11:06] <genefitz> I can be absent minded at times...lol
[11:06] <Get_A_Fix> Good day all. I could use a bit of advice about installing a second video card under 6.06 LTS. Currently running an agp nvidia card and plan to add an pci nvidia and Intend to use xinerama. Need some help please with learning exactly what to do and in what order.
[11:06] <Coolranch> i had that problem with slackware
[11:07] <kayzu> this channel should really be split up into two smaller ones, sucks to be ignored :p
[11:07] <Will> Hey guys, n00b here, quick question, I need to add 2 new repository lines to apt-get. I tried doing them through adept manager - however I am getting errors when running apt-get. What is the command line to add them in a terminal?
[11:07] <POVaddct> genefitz: you don't have to reinstall just because you forgot your password
[11:07] <hwilde> martyyyr, umm I don't know....
[11:07] <genefitz> Coolranch, slackware can be a bother like that, older versions of Gentoo as well..
[11:07] <Prendy> Eeerm, what will the choice be like at boot? Will it be, Run Window XP or Run Ubuntu?
[11:08] <Coolranch> heeh yep
[11:08] <khadim>  b
[11:08] <martyyyr> hwilde: Well, I couldn't get my connection working without putting that stuff in my interfaces file, so I'm pretty sure it's needed. :)
[11:08] <Coolranch> suse is pretty easy tho
[11:08] <panfist> can anyone help me out, I think I broke wine. apt-get remove --purge and then install didn't help.
[11:08] <dystopianray> panfist: try aptitude purge wine
[11:08] <hwilde> martyyyr, right, you have to setup interfaces file, but then you don't need network manager locking up.
[11:08] <khadim> vos conseils pour les debutant
[11:08] <jamey-u1> I'm trying to configure an extra IP address on eth0 but I get this error: "SIOCDELRT: No such process". Can anyone help?
[11:08] <genefitz> I have been through just about very distro out there.. Every time a new one is released, I have to check it out.. I am kinda obsessive like that..
[11:08] <POVaddct> panfist: try removing or renaming your ~/.wine directory
[11:08] <metaxyy__fw> I've started an HTTP server (from the command line, not a service) on port 3000.  When I connect to it on localhost on the same box it works, but when I connect via the network it can't connect.  Does Ubuntu have a software firewall or some other behavior that would cause this?
[11:09] <martyyyr> hwilde: Do you know why it locks up?
[11:09] <panfist> povaddct, dystopianray ty
[11:09] <genefitz> CoolRanch, Opensuse is a nice distro.
[11:09] <Lattyware> Anlar: Hmm
[11:09] <dystopianray> metaxyy__fw: not by default, your server is probably listening only on 127.0.0.1
[11:09] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: no, you likely did not bind it to external interface.. localhost or 127.0.0.1 can't be connected from outside
[11:09] <genefitz> It just takes a lot more resources than Ubuntu does..
[11:09] <dystopianray> metaxyy__fw: netstat -tulpn | grep 3000
[11:09] <Coolranch> yeah, ive noticed that hehe.
[11:09] <hwilde> martyyyr, I do not know, but it has bugs.
[11:10] <Prendy> Wow, connecting on ubuntu sounds like a pai. O_O
[11:10] <genefitz> Coolranch, I had the same Mandrake 9 on my old computer from the time I bought it, till the time I sold it.. I think the guy who bought it is still using it...
[11:10] <Prendy> *pain
[11:10] <Coolranch> mandrake is good stuff.
[11:10] <dystopianray> Prendy: depends on your hardware
[11:10] <Coolranch> well im off to throw this mmx333 off the roof
[11:10] <Coolranch> :D
[11:10] <jamey-u1> Can anyone help me configuring dual IP addresses?
[11:10] <kayzu> !how do i stop GRUB from overwriting the mbr while installing? there is no option for that when installing from the live cd
[11:11] <genefitz> Well, best of luck to you Coolranch..
[11:11] <dystopianray> Prendy: just keep in mind that people won't come here when everything works well
[11:11] <genefitz> If you have any more issues, feel free to come back and ask. :-)
[11:11] <Coolranch> thx for your help i will be back :D onc eim done downloading
[11:11] <_david> dystopianray, I do :P
[11:11] <Coolranch> sez its gonna take an hour so
[11:11] <Coolranch> we shell see if this dose it
[11:11] <genefitz> Have a little faith.. :-)
[11:12] <Coolranch> hehe
[11:12] <Get_A_Fix> Good day all. I could use a bit of advice about installing a second video card under 6.06 LTS. Currently running an agp nvidia card and plan to add an pci nvidia and Intend to use xinerama. Need some help please with learning exactly what order to do things in
[11:13] <kayzu> how do i install ubuntu without it writing GRUB the MBR?? i want to use ntldr and grldr not grub
[11:14] <mediasoldier> ah linux both a pleasure and a pain
[11:14] <Yggdrasil> mediasoldier amen
[11:14] <dystopianray> kayzu: make a backup of your mbr and restore it after the install
[11:14] <dystopianray> kayzu: dd if=/dev/blah of=mbr.bak bs=512 count=1
[11:14] <kayzu> do i need to install grub elsewhere then?
[11:14] <madman91> is there a way to scan my LAN and see ip's behind it with ubuntu???
[11:14] <dystopianray> madman91: use nmap
[11:15] <_david> madman91, why? :P
[11:15] <mediasoldier> ubuntu studio appears to be lacking cinelerra on my end :P looks like its deb hunting for me AGAIN
[11:15] <kayzu> or can i just point the ntldr to grldr and it will boot ubuntu?
[11:15] <madman91> _david: curiosity, and i want to become fully comfortable with lan
[11:15] <madman91> dystopianray: any particular flags you know off the top of your head?
[11:15] <genefitz> Get_A_Fix, I am looking at several WIKI's and I have seen it done with dual PCI cards, (usually resulting in an X crash)
[11:15] <dystopianray> madman91: what exactly do you want to do?
[11:15] <pros1>  I want to ssh from computer a to computer b and run an application on computer b's monitor... Any help?
[11:15] <kayzu> there really should be an option not to install grub to the mbr imo
[11:16] <madman91> dystopianray: see all the computers behind my router
[11:16] <genefitz> I know there is a configuration for PCIE (sli) but not much info..
[11:16] <adrian> how can i set up the analog function of a saa7134 tv card if I know its the card=104: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1110 DVB-T/Hybrid 0070:6701?
[11:16] <genefitz> As far as the different arch of the cards, I think it may cause some issues..
[11:16] <dystopianray> pros1: while on a: 'sh -X b' then execute whatever app you want to run
[11:16] <genefitz> Now to sound defeatist, but I don't know, friend..
[11:16] <dystopianray> pros1: although you may need to modify the sshd_config to allow tunneling X
[11:16] <kshahnjd> what is command to download a file from the shell?
[11:16] <panagiotis> fuck off
[11:17] <metaxyy__fw> OK, I found the option for my server to bind to a different IP (sorry, relatively new at server stuff).  It looks like I have to put in my exact internal IP.  Shouldn't I be able to put in something like eth0 instead of that so that I don't have to look up my IP to do this command?
[11:17] <dyrne> pros1: do 'w' to see list of users and displays an example would be 1) export DISPLAY=:0  2) gedit&
[11:17] <jrib> !language | panagiotis
[11:17] <ubotu> panagiotis: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:17] <panagiotis> sorry
[11:17] <IceLink> how do i set the dedault apps for files?
[11:17] <Paradoxx> How do I add a script to be run at start up?
[11:17] <panagiotis> quit
[11:17] <madman91> Paradoxx: add it to your session manager
[11:17] <jrib> !defaultapp > IceLink (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:17] <jrib> !startup > Paradoxx (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:17] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: often, * binds it to all available ones
[11:17] <Get_A_Fix> genefitz: thanks, me too, but willing to give it a shot, just don't know how to tell Ubuntu that there's a second card, or will it pick it up on boot maybe.
[11:17] <kshahnjd> rockets!
[11:18] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: Lemme try.
[11:18] <rockets> kshahnjd, yeah?
[11:18] <Paradoxx> jrib: I only have access to the terminal
[11:18] <mediasoldier> ?
[11:18] <mediasoldier> connect #ubuntustudio
[11:18] <kshahnjd> rockets: you used a command the other day to download from the command line, and I don't remember what it was
[11:18] <mediasoldier> doh
[11:18] <dystopianray> madman91: assuming they all respond to pings and you're on a 192.168.1.0/24 network then: nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24
[11:18] <rockets> anybody know why DIA isnt letting me insert any more objects? when i try to insert anything it just drags a dotted line box, which is the selectionbox
[11:18] <jrib> Paradoxx: you want it to start when you login or when your computer boots?
[11:18] <genefitz> IceLink, Sustem -> Prefrences -> Preferred Applications
[11:18] <madman91> dystopianray: i am on a 192.168.0.1
[11:18] <rockets> kshahnjd, to download a file directly or to install software from a repository
[11:18] <Paradoxx> jrib: computer boots
[11:18] <madman91> dystopianray: but i will edit it accordingly
[11:18] <madman91> dystopianray: thanks!
[11:18] <kshahnjd> rockets: download directly
[11:18] <rockets> kshahnjd, to download a specific file use wget
[11:19] <jrib> Paradoxx: k, read 'man update-rc.d'
[11:19] <IceLink> genefitz: thanks, jrib doesnt help^^
[11:19] <kshahnjd> rockets: ah... wget now I remember
[11:19] <dystopianray> madman91: if they don't respond to pings, replace the -sP with -P0
[11:19] <rockets> kshahnjd, type apropos download in your terminal
[11:19] <madman91> dystopianray: what is the /24 for?
[11:19] <rockets> dyrne, subnet
[11:19] <madman91> dystopianray: it works :-)
[11:19] <dystopianray> madman91: 255.255.255.0 netmask
[11:19] <jrib> IceLink: it depends on what file you are talking about
[11:19] <rockets> kshahnjd, apropos searches for commands
[11:19] <IceLink> ey genefitz, this is wrong
[11:19] <dystopianray> madman91: even if they dont' respond to pings you should still have all the valid ips in your arp cache
[11:19] <IceLink> jrib: ogg.. well, i ioened it a lotta times with kid3, now it's opened everytime in kid3 but i want it to rhythmbix,,,
[11:20] <metaxyy__fw> Looks like mine (the rather stunted WEBrick) doesn't support *, at this point I'll be happy if it supports a comma-delimited list so at least I can connect both remotely and directly
[11:20] <madman91> dystopianray: they do respond, or so it appears
[11:20] <madman91> dystopianray: thanks a bunch!
[11:20] <kshahnjd> rockets: sweet, will use, there was another thing you did, to decompress the tarball and extract, zxsf
[11:20] <metaxyy__fw> Anyway, thanks a lot to everyone who helped!  I've apprehended this issue almost alarmingly rapidly <g>
[11:20] <jrib> IceLink: what isn't working when you right click -> properties -> open with
[11:20] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: oh, webrick?
[11:20] <genefitz> IceLink, oops, wrong info, stand by.. Sorry, I was just going off the top of my head...
[11:20] <nich0s> How can I check to see if I am getting access to a specific port on my computer
[11:20] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: Aye.
[11:20] <jrib> Paradoxx: you might be interested in !upstart too which is set to replace sysv
[11:20] <Will> someone mind helping me in a PM with apt-get?
[11:20] <IceLink> jrib: well it's openened with that, but not by default
[11:20] <IceLink> genefitz: np
[11:20] <jrib> !upstart > Paradoxx (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:20] <darnell_> i have voip with earthlink... why cant i just dial a phone number from my computer and use my microphone instead of using the phone?
[11:20] <whazilla> wher is a fiesty usb boot image ?
[11:21] <darnell_> is there any programs that will allow that?
[11:21] <jrib> IceLink: notice you have to click "properties" first
[11:21] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: please, kill it with fire! gem install mongrel and apt-get lighttpd!
[11:21] <whazilla> are ther usb images ?
[11:21] <madman91> dystopianray: you wouldnt happen to know how to scan each of these ip's for open ports as well, would you?
[11:21] <whazilla> wher is a fiesty usb boot image ?
[11:21] <whazilla> are ther usb images ?
[11:21] <IceLink> damn, thanks jrib
[11:21] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: that combination is faster, has better diagnostics, and is really configurable
[11:21] <dystopianray> madman91: nmap 192.168.0.0/24
[11:21] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: you have to just install the components, nothing else needed.. they will get used automatically
[11:21] <dystopianray> madman91: it will default to a simple connect scan, other types of scans need root privs and are in the man page
[11:22] <dystopianray> madman91: maybe add -v to it as well so the output is more verbose
[11:22] <rockets> kshahnjd, tar -zxvf
[11:22] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: And will it bind to * without me telling it?  ;)
[11:22] <madman91> dystopianray: i guess I will have to study nmap and its man file.. thanks
[11:22] <madman91> :)
[11:22] <metaxyy__fw> That's my only condition <g>
[11:22] <rockets> kshahnjd, read man pages dude
[11:22] <rockets> you can google that kind of info as well
[11:22] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: I am not 100% sure but I have a faint memory trace that it actually should
[11:22] <rockets> save IRC for the hard questions
[11:22] <dystopianray> madman91: http://www.nmap-tutorial.com/
[11:22] <bobesponja> hey all
[11:22] <bobesponja> in what package can I find curl-config?
[11:23] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: K.  gem install mongrel?
[11:23] <madman91> dystopianray: even better, thanks :-) You gotta love opensource
[11:23] <metaxyy__fw> Oh, nm, you explicitly said that
[11:23] <genefitz> Okay, Icelink, which programs are you trying to set as default?
[11:23] <IceLink> genefitz: i already got it
[11:23] <nich0s> How can I check to see if I am getting access to a specific port on my computer
[11:23] <genefitz> Okay, IceLink, sorry I couldn't be more help..
[11:23] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: yeah. it's also more configurable.. and you can start the mongrel once with control script to background and you don't have to re-start it like webrick after many things and when webricks caching pisses all over itself
[11:23] <rockets> nich0s, nmap yourself?
[11:23] <IceLink> genefitz: oh damn don't be depressed due to such crappy things
[11:24] <nich0s> rockets: Will that run a constant scan?
[11:24] <rockets> nich0s, no, you want Zenoss or Nessus
[11:24] <genefitz> IceLinke, you know it it goes, we do what we can :-)
[11:24] <dystopianray> nich0s: netstat -tulp
[11:24] <rockets> nich0s, I prefer Zenoss for no particular reason
[11:24] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: add also lighttpd, it's THE meanest and leanest web server out there and gets used automatically... it's on apt repos
[11:24] <_david> I don't like lighty
[11:25] <Anlar> lighty+mongrel+rails == mmmmmm
[11:26] <metaxyy__fw> Mongrel is a server too, why do I need lighttpd (for now)?
[11:26] <jussi_> hey peeps
[11:26] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: mongrel is a rails server. lighttpd is frontend web server, increasing the speed for a magnitude or two.
[11:27] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: usually mongrel instances are being kept on pool behind the main web server, preloaded and ready to work.. now you get one restarted constantly
[11:27] <IceLink> how do i remove a directory?
[11:27] <kshahnjd> I have a .tar.gz file that needs to be extracted/decompressed/whatever... command?
[11:27] <Anlar> I'm sorry, not making much sense. hangover.
[11:27] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: Ah, so Mongrel can serve rails over a CGI-type pipes/sockets connection or direct to a socket. Lighttpd takes its stuff via the former option and does the server work, correct?
[11:28] <saxin> anyone knows what I need to try out Gutsty Tribe3 in vmware? I can't use vmware-player since the image is an .iso :)
[11:28] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: yeah. though the standard package without lighty aroudn will fall back to something else.. that wont be quite pretty
[11:28] <kshahnjd> rockets: there are a ton of options for 'apropros extract', what did you do the other day with the zxsf options to just.. bam done
[11:28] <rockets> kshahnjd, first of all you could google extracting tar.gz
[11:29] <rockets> kshahnjd, and anyway its tar -zxvf
[11:29] <jrib> saxin: sure you can, use easyvmx.com to create a vmx and then boot the iso to install it to your vmware image
[11:29] <nich0s> rockets: How would I go about getting either of those?
[11:29] <makky> hey is there a Nero type program for Ubuntu?
[11:29] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: but the main reason for installing all that is that when you really start developing, you notice all sorts of errors that are hard to reproduce or understand.. and often they are caused by webrick, which you should restart almost after all changes to application.. which just sucks
[11:29] <rockets> nich0s, either of what, sorry was doing something else
[11:29] <rockets> nich0s, oh
[11:29] <fuffal0> [03:27pm]  <fuffal0> escoe>  WOO PILLS STUPID THINGS HEHEHE WOOOHOOO EQ

[11:29] <fuffal0> [03:28pm]  <fuffal0> me>  HEEEEEEEY <random banter>   wanna golf?
[11:29] <saxin> jrib: nice.. I take a loot at that. Thanks for url :)
[11:29] <fuffal0> ack
[11:29] <adv> what's the pkg name for pidgin?
[11:29] <myusrnm> I tried installing virtualbox, but now i'm getting problems
[11:29] <rockets> adv, its not in the repositorie
[11:29] <rockets> adv, its not in the repositories
[11:29] <myusrnm> i ran sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[11:30] <rockets> nich0s, nessus is in the repositories and zenoss you get from the website
[11:30] <makky> I need help with CD/DVD burning
[11:30] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: also, it's not braindead and will bind nicer to ports and interfaces and stuff like that :)
[11:30] <myusrnm> and quit midway
[11:30] <metaxyy__fw> Right, so if I'm a single developer who's gonna be moving this to DreamHost before anyone else even looks at it, the only reason I should care about lighttpd is the incremental speed difference and the reduced suffering in config, right?
[11:30] <rockets> adv, get pidgin .deb files here http://www.getdeb.net/
[11:30] <myusrnm> now whenever i want to do something virtualbox tries to install
[11:30] <myusrnm> what should i do ?
[11:30] <bluebanana> hi, i was told to use internet explorer browser on https://eapp.adecco.com/eapp/eappInterface?source=WEB. if i download internet explorer for ubuntu, will it work, or must one go to a Windows/ Mac computer?
[11:31] <rockets> myusrnm, virtualbox blows, add the canonical commercial repository and install vmware-server
[11:31] <rockets> myusrnm, its free
[11:31] <jrib> myusrnm: why does the install fail?
[11:31] <makky> Need Nero like CD/DVD Burning program for Ubuntu
[11:31] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: the lighty part, yeah. mongrel is a must. but, lighty is very very tiny component and doesn't really require even root priviledges etc in that setup.. there's no harm for installing it
[11:31] <adv> rockets: why is it not at the repos?
[11:31] <myusrnm> because i get to a graphical install screen
[11:31] <rockets> myusrnm, deb http://archive.canonical.com feisty-commercial main
[11:31] <myusrnm> and it says configuring virtualbox
[11:31] <rockets> adv, because Feisty comes with Gaim 2.0.0b6
[11:31] <myusrnm> and i'm not quite sure how to use that in terminal
[11:32] <Anlar> metaxyy__fw: the scripts start lighty automatically correct, you will never see or have to think about it when developing
[11:32] <rockets> adv, they dont upgrade packages within a single release unless its necessary to fix a security hole or a MAJOR bug
[11:32] <adv> rockets: yes but apt-get install pidgin says there's no such pk
[11:32] <metaxyy__fw> Anlar: K.  This has been one of the most quick and enlightening IRC conversations I've ever had.  It's been an honor ;)
[11:32] <rockets> adv, because there IS NO SUCH PACKAGE
[11:32] <rockets> adv, get the package from getdeb.net
[11:32] <rockets> adv, its not in the apt-get repositories
[11:32] <bobesponja> any body know where I can get curl-config package?
[11:32] <adv> rockets: yes, but why not have it at the repos just in case someone wants it? does it have bugs/probs?
[11:32] <Ahadiel> rockets: http://www.getdeb.net/ <== It's there
[11:32] <rockets> adv, because that would change a whole bunch of dependencies for all sorts of things
[11:33] <jrib> myusrnm: try to use my name when you respond and not use enter to seperate your thoughts.   What exactly does it say?  Use pastebin if you have to or take a screenshot if it is graphical
[11:33] <hacked_kernel> I'm building a lib from source, where should I install it?
[11:33] <rockets> adv, thats just not how it works
[11:33] <rockets> adv, Ubuntu works so that there can be a seemless upgrade to pidgin just by upgrading your package once gutsy 7.10 comes out
[11:33] <nikin> hy i cant setup my MGA200 Graphics card... i get an error about  invalid argument mmap  mmio
[11:33] <jrib> hacked_kernel: what lib?
[11:33] <bluebanana> how can i download internet explorer for ubuntu, while making sure that after i'm done with using IE, I can _completely_ undo the installation?
[11:33] <rockets> adv, having them both in the repos means installing them side by side which is retarded
[11:33] <rockets> Gaim 2.0b6 works just fine. In october you'll have your pidgin
[11:34] <harrison> How long does the Memtest usually take?
[11:34] <Jack_Sparrow> bluebanana: do a full backup before you go there...do that...
[11:34] <hacked_kernel> jrib: like libxml, libphp any lib
[11:34] <daylighter> I had a huge game pad with rumble and I am not using it anymore, but whenever I go into jscalibrator the thing is still there, the new game pad I have is much simpler -- how do I clear it out so I can configure this new controller?
[11:34] <adv> rockets: but pidgin is the most updated version, anyway
[11:34] <jrib> hacked_kernel: well i ask because usually when you ask that question you are building something you do not need to build
[11:35] <rockets> adv, but its not the version that comes with feisty, and version numbers arent changed within one release
[11:35] <bluebanana> Jack_Sparrow, backup of what? and why?
[11:35] <Anlar> harrison: it runs until the end of time actually.. some 4 hours should be enough. if you don't have crashes by then it's all fine
[11:35] <adv> rockets: k
[11:35] <rockets> adv, that maintains stability because the existing packages have been tested by the ubuntu team, while pidgin has NOT been tested by the ubuntu team
[11:35] <myusrnm> @jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30974/plain/ is what it looks like
[11:35] <jrib> myusrnm: hit tab to get to "ok" and then press enter
[11:35] <Jack_Sparrow> bluebanana: what you will need to do to get ie working will be easier to restor from backup than undo what has been done
[11:35] <Ataraxzy> Test
[11:35] <rockets> adv, and even if you can provide a compelling argument for having them both in the repositories (which you cant) that wont change the fact that it doesn't work that way
[11:35] <nikin> hy i cant setup my MGA200 Graphics card... i get an error about  invalid argument mmap  mmio
[11:35] <Ataraxzy> Excellent!
[11:36] <hacked_kernel> jrib: Exactly I don't want to build it but Its required by another application to run, if you don't know the answer thanks for trying to help
[11:36] <jrib> myusrnm: or down or right arrow if that doesn't work
[11:36] <jrib> hacked_kernel: what lib is it?
[11:36] <bcardarella> Does Ubuntu support multiple-monitors? I want to switch from my XP machine to an Ubuntu machine to develop but I will really miss if I can't use my multiple-monitor setup that I currently have and I cannot seem to find a definite answer about this anywhere.
[11:36] <bluebanana> Jack_Sparrow, are you saying that it will be hard to install internet_explorer on ubuntu?
[11:36] <hacked_kernel> jrib: /usr/lib right?? or /usr/local/lib ??
[11:36] <jrib> hacked_kernel: and what application?
[11:36] <daylighter> bluebanana, google wine doors
[11:36] <Anlar> bcardarella: yes. although sometimes some of the 3d acceleration stuff wont work on all heads.
[11:36] <nikin> bcardarella: yes it does
[11:37] <Jack_Sparrow> bluebanana: Not that hard to install and get running in wine but a rats nest to undo.
[11:37] <bluebanana> maybe i should just go to a Windows Computer to use Intenet explorer. That would be a lot less complicated, wouldn't it?
[11:37] <bcardarella> Anlar: that's okay. I'm just using my 2nd monitor for my IDE. Does it support it out of box or do I have to compile anything?
[11:37] <aricz> bluebanana : do it.. bibi
[11:37] <rockets> bluebanana, its not hard at all
[11:37] <aricz> :)
[11:37] <daylighter> bluebanana, there is a program called wine doors, which is like automatix, but for windows programs, with it I had IE 6 installed in minutes
[11:37] <Anlar> bcardarella: no compiling, but you have to edit one configuration file. there are plenty of examples on internet about that
[11:37] <Jack_Sparrow> bluebanana: what are you trying to do with IE, you can always dual boot.. I do.. works fine
[11:37] <rockets> bluebanana, install wine and then get ies4linux
[11:38] <bcardarella> Anlar: cool, I'll digg around. Thanks
[11:38] <rockets> bluebanana, ies4linux installs IE6 + Flash 9 for IE, automatically
[11:38] <compengi> if there are 2 or more pc's behind 1 router running both ssh-server and you want to connect for example to computer 2 how can this be done? or it depends on the username and pass?
[11:38] <rockets> you just keep typing in Yes
[11:38] <bcardarella> dig
[11:38] <NigelS> bluebanana: you could use a VM to run it, that would keep it isolated of course, I don't think wine splurges its apps over the tree though
[11:38] <Jack_Sparrow> bluebanana: Iies4linux will trash your setup..
[11:38] <rockets> Jack_Sparrow, ies4linux works perfectly . . .
[11:38] <jrib> hacked_kernel: for example, you wouldn't compile libxml since it is in ubuntu's repos
[11:38] <NigelS> can't be that perfect, it's running IE, ba-ding etc
[11:38] <Jack_Sparrow> rockets: Say that in winehq and see the response
[11:39] <Anlar> guys, that's IE6... product that is 3+ years old. you should talk aout 7, and that means running vmware instance + headless rdesktop
[11:39] <rockets> Jack_Sparrow, yeah yeah, ive never had a problem with it. at the very least it !worksforme
[11:39] <nikin> compengi: in router you make a virtual  server... so that one port is for one maschine and an other one for an other maschine like 22 and 2222
[11:39] <hacked_kernel> jrib: libxml was just an example
[11:39] <bluebanana> there's a website that requires the usage of IE.
[11:39] <jrib> hacked_kernel: right, that's why I asked for the name of the actual lib you want
[11:39] <Ataraxzy> bardarella, you should also check out xinerama, it allows windows to resize properly.
[11:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !worksforme
[11:39] <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.
[11:39] <bluebanana> NigelS, VM, wine, tree... that's all over my newbie head
[11:40] <Anlar> bluebanana: if that site requires activex component(s), it will likely fail anyways
[11:40] <clouder> last time I messed with ies4linux, the page rendering wasn't matching up with a friend's running it natively
[11:40] <Jack_Sparrow> rockets: winehq feels the same way about that script as we do about automatix
[11:40] <rockets> Jack_Sparrow, but not only does it !workforme, but it !worksformyboss and !worksformycoworkers and !worksforeverybodyIknowthatstriedit
[11:40] <nikin> bluebanana: there is a way... to set firefox to identify himself as IE... but i dont remeber
[11:40] <hacked_kernel> jrib: well, whats the difference between /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib
[11:40] <Ataraxzy> Bluebannana, VM is a Virtual Machine, Wine is Wine Is Not an Emulator, it's a windows emulator.
[11:40] <Jack_Sparrow> rockets: Good for you...
[11:40] <orudie> thanx guys
[11:40] <compengi> nikin, okay i got it
[11:40] <jrib> hacked_kernel: I can't help you if you don't answer my question
[11:40] <daylighter> nikin, user agent
[11:40] <Anlar> Ataraxzy: wine is NOT an emulator
[11:41] <rockets> Anlar, hardy har har har
[11:41] <nikin> compengi: ok :D
[11:41] <Ataraxzy> hahaha
[11:41] <Anlar> rockets: hardy harhar ?
[11:41] <rockets> hardy har;
[11:41] <Anlar> it's not an emulator
[11:41] <hacked_kernel> jrib: I see
[11:41] <IceLink> that's paradox
[11:41] <daylighter> is there an ubuntu gaming channel?
[11:41] <rockets> IceCrew, no its a recursive acronym
[11:41] <Anlar> it's a dynamic runtime linker + the base libraries re-implemented. nothing to do with emulating.
[11:41] <Ataraxzy> anyone know how to get the Wifi light working on a dell laptop?
[11:41] <rockets> Ataraxzy, broadcom wifi?
[11:41] <Anlar> wine doesn't emulate anything.
[11:42] <nikin> hy i cant setup my MGA200 Graphics card... i get an error about  invalid argument mmap  mmio
[11:42] <jrib> hacked_kernel: is there a reason you don't tell me?
[11:42] <Ataraxzy> ayup, after an upgrade to 7.04... /cry
[11:42] <NigelS> bluebanana: i.e. use a virtual machine like vmware to run IE - a VM emulates a separate computer and can run a distinct OS
[11:42] <kayzu> how do i backup the mbr again?
[11:42] <Ataraxzy> I had it working under Ubuntu 6.  the upgrade borked it like the Swedish Chef.
[11:42] <kshahnjd> what is the difference between specifying - and not specifying it when using tar
[11:43] <cblack0> I am trying to set up apt so that it installs certain packages from gutsy but the rest it leaves alone. I am using apt pinning in /etc/apt/preferences for this. I am having issues, it seems to want to update like 20 other packages to gutsy releases
[11:43] <tulcod> my friend has a problem. he has a usb stick with two partitions: one fat32 and one seeming like a linux swap (which is implausible). when inserting that usb stick into his machine, he gets a window saying "Cannot mount volume. Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume '2GB USB'.". here's the output of dmesg: http://rafb.net/p/HAD5zi42.html
[11:43] <jrib> kshahnjd: none
[11:43] <rockets> Ataraxzy, what kind of wifi card is it
[11:43] <Jack_Sparrow> kayzu: with dd
[11:43] <kshahnjd> jrib: i can't seem to extract a tar.gz file
[11:43] <hacked_kernel> jrib: No, I just had this issue from some time and I don't remember that application so I wanted to understand how to install libraries
[11:43] <Ataraxzy> broadcom.
[11:43] <rockets> kayzu, im going to get flamed for saying this, but i like Acronis Trueimage
[11:43] <rockets> Ataraxzy, you need to recompile ndiswrapper
[11:43] <tulcod> wait a sec...
[11:43] <tulcod> I'm in the wrong place
[11:43] <rockets> Ataraxzy, change kernel and ndiswrapper breaks
[11:43] <tulcod> he runs mint :-/
[11:43] <banditti> msg nickserv identify sashab4
[11:43] <nikin> dd if=/dev/hda of=mbr.backup bs=512 count=1  .. as i remember good
[11:43] <kayzu> jack_sparrow: i'm a nub, i need either a tutorial or the complete command
[11:44] <Ataraxzy> arghhh! okies.  I can do that.
[11:44] <jrib> hacked_kernel: ok, and I'll explain it to you, but I want to make sure you actually need to do this and aren't causing yourself a needless headache
[11:44] <kayzu> rockets: does acronis back up the mbr?
[11:44] <rockets> Ataraxzy, before you compile it do "sudo make uninstall" like 5 times
[11:44] <Jack_Sparrow> kayzu: I can put it up for you in a sec.. on another machine
[11:44] <jrib> kshahnjd: how are you trying?  (btw you can just right click on it and hit "extract here" in the gui)
[11:44] <ninix> rockets: r u able to make image with a ext3 hard drive with acronis ?
[11:44] <Ataraxzy> ouch, that bad?
[11:44] <hacked_kernel> jrib: Thanks a lot
[11:44] <nikin> kayzu: dd if=/dev/hda of=mbr.backup bs=512 count=1  .. as i remember good
[11:44] <kshahnjd> tar zxsf whatever.tar.gz
[11:44] <Ataraxzy> mmm.  I love acronis.
[11:44] <kshahnjd> jrib: no GUI, ubuntu-server
[11:44] <rockets> ninix, you can back up anything drive with acronis, you just lose some advanced features like loading OEM drivers into a windows image etc.
[11:44] <jrib> kshahnjd: tar xf foo.tar.gz    is enough
[11:45] <Jack_Sparrow> 462 if you just want the boot  512 if you want the partition info
[11:45] <Ataraxzy> makes Ghost look pale.
[11:45] <rockets> ninix, acronis backs up ext3 just fine if you image the entire drive. it should be able to image just the MBR as well
[11:45] <rockets> Ghost blows compared to acronis
[11:45] <kshahnjd> jrib: it automatically detects the gzip?
[11:45] <rockets> I used ghost for years before i use trueimage
[11:45] <jrib> kshahnjd: yeah
[11:45] <rockets> Universal Restore is the greatest thing I've ever seen

[11:45] <Ataraxzy> it does.  though it's nice for splashing multiple images onto a host of computers.  you don't have to buy the 'enterprise' version for that.

[11:46] <kayzu> i created my linux partitions already, do i need to back up the partition info aswell?
[11:46] <Ataraxzy> use gaim.  it's short'n sweet. nothin' fancy.
[11:46] <hacked_kernel> jrib: Thank you
[11:47] <Jack_Sparrow> kayzu: it would not hurt to do one of each
[11:47] <kayzu> okay
[11:47] <Ataraxzy> agree @ Jack_Sparrow
[11:47] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[11:47] <jrib> hacked_kernel: it's really rare that you will need to compile a library.  You should really make sure it's not in ubuntu's repositories (make sure you have enabled universe).  And if you do compile something, it should always go to /usr/local
[11:47] <makaira> What wireless "software" does Feisty Fawn come with, out of the box?
[11:47] <RedLin1> Anyway, can you add a user in recovery mode or something_
[11:47] <kshahnjd> what is 'strict subs' and why does it not like me renaming things?
[11:48] <Ataraxzy> makaira, what network card are you using?
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> makaira: broadcom chipset is very easy to set up... not out of the box, but very easy
[11:48] <guhhh> hey ;)
[11:48] <Prendy> Hey
[11:48] <makaira> Whichever comes with the MacbookPro. The wireless works fine, I'm just interested with what Feisty Fawn comes with.
[11:48] <soothsayer> Are there any torrents for the presentations (especially Shuttleworth's keynote) at the Ubuntu Live Conference?
[11:49] <Prendy> I was wondering, is there a choice between ubuntu and xp at start-up?
[11:49] <Ataraxzy> well, unlike the mac, the drivers and the connection software are relatively separate.
[11:49] <makaira> To clarify: I have no troubles. I just want to know if I'm accessing wireless through wpa_supplicant, or through the default software ubuntu comes with, because I installed wpa_supplicant before I attempted to connect.
[11:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Prendy: yes if you set it up that way
[11:49] <Ataraxzy> @Prendy, yes, if you install Ubuntu second.
[11:49] <hacked_kernel> jrib: Yes but some times an app requires a recent version of  a lib that isn't in the repos
[11:49] <hacked_kernel> jrib: Thats the reason
[11:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Prendy: and yes easier to install ubuntu second
[11:49] <jrib> hacked_kernel: what app?
[11:49] <magicrobotmonkey> does anyone know how to get of the "import into f-spot" popup when you plug in a card?
[11:49] <makaira> For instance: Does the default ubuntu software come with the ability to connect to WPA2 Enterprise and PEAP?
[11:50] <Prendy> So, if I'm running xp now, I can just install ubuntu?
[11:50] <makaira> If not, does that mean it's wpa_supplicant doing the work?
[11:50] <Ataraxzy> ahh, I dunno Makaira.  I'm relatively newbish.
[11:50] <sobersabre> hi. Dell Latitude D820 installation problems.
[11:50] <Ataraxzy> @prendy, if you're careful.
[11:50] <RedLin1> It's easy as hell to dualboot Ubuntu, as long as you're not trying to run a raid setup (fake raid setup)
[11:50] <Anlar> makaira: the 802.11x isn't well handled by network-manager but it's doable
[11:50] <sobersabre> I have successfully installed the machine with the regular live CD.
[11:50] <hacked_kernel> jrib: What ever the application is, I don't remember a certain application but I remember that I 've faced this issue before
[11:51] <ShackJack> HI all - when I resume from a suspend to ram, my network isn't active... Try to reset via /etc/init.d/networking restart to no effect... andy suggestions (dbus restart doesn't work so good either) - any suggestions?
[11:51] <makaira> Ugh... That's not what I'm asking.
[11:51] <kayzu> okay so dd if=/dev/hda of=mbr.backup bs=512 count=1 is the command to back it up, how do i restore the mbr?
[11:51] <sobersabre> I even configured it's wireless card (Broadcom 4311) to work via ndiswrapper.
[11:51] <makaira> I am able to connect, no problems. I just don't know what it is I am using to connect.
[11:51] <Ataraxzy> @prendy you need to make another partition for ubuntu to reside upon.  to do that you need to make absolutely sure that your drive is defragged.
[11:51] <sobersabre> but I cannot make the machine boot again.
[11:51] <Prendy> My drive is defragged
[11:51] <Prendy> Wait
[11:51] <makaira> I need to teach somebody else how to link-up to the wireless here at school, and I'm not sure if I'll need to install wpa_supplicant or if I am working with the default software that comes with feisty.
[11:52] <Ataraxzy> ahh, check your sysmon.
[11:52] <sobersabre> on boot after uSB devices are detected, before the keymap setup the machine simply gets stuck.
[11:52] <Prendy> What do you mean like windows defrag or program defrag?
[11:52] <daylighter> I have a kernel module loaded named "xpad" and I think it is for this new tiny little game pad I have, how would I find out?
[11:52] <Ataraxzy> windows defrag
[11:52] <Prendy> Oh ok
[11:52] <Prendy> I did that today :P
[11:52] <Jack_Sparrow> kayzu: dd if=mbr.backup of/dev/sda bs=1
[11:52] <Ataraxzy> @makaira check System Monitor, you should see which programs are loaded.
[11:52] <jmg> daylighter: google
[11:52] <kayzu> okay thanks :)
[11:52] <Jack_Sparrow> kayzu: assuming your sda and not hda
[11:53] <Prendy> And what did you mean if I'm careful? O.o
[11:53] <makaira> k, thx.
[11:53] <rockets> daylighter, lsmod should show which devices are using xpad
[11:53] <daylighter> rockets, it shows nothing is using it
[11:53] <jmg> rockets: it wont
[11:53] <rockets> daylighter, idk man
[11:53] <jmg> lsmod doesnt show devices
[11:53] <daylighter> rockets, I am trying to get rid of the old game pad I'm not using anymore and calibrate this one with less axis than the other one
[11:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Prendy: partiton selection, any time you resize or edit partitions there can be mistakes
[11:53] <rockets> jmg, actually it does. second column
[11:53] <rockets> jmg, oh wait.
[11:53] <rockets> jmg, neeeeever mind.
[11:53] <Ataraxzy> @prendy kk.  the ubuntu install program should let you change partitions around and resize them.  but be prepared to have to re-install windows.
[11:54] <jmg> daylighter: xpad is the module for the xbox controller
[11:54] <Prendy> :|
[11:54] <daylighter> lol
[11:54] <lusepuster_> hi folks, my sister is running 6.06, and a USB flashdisk doesn't automount. Where to look for it?
[11:54] <daylighter> okay
[11:54] <Prendy> Uh-oh
[11:54] <Ataraxzy> it's not as bad as it sounds.
[11:54] <Prendy> I don't feel too good about installing ubuntu now..
[11:54] <Ataraxzy> just back-up your system and you'll be fine.
[11:54] <jmg> Prendy: i resized my windows partition no worries
[11:54] <daylighter> when I open jscalibrator there is still the axis values for the huge controller, but I need them to go away since I'm now using a simple controller with just a dpad and some buttons
[11:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Prendy: then run it live and in persistent mode with a usb..
[11:54] <Prendy> Yeah, it says that on the help thing
[11:54] <sobersabre> guys, please tell me what can cause the system not to load.
[11:54] <sobersabre> ?
[11:54] <Ataraxzy> yeah. gparted (the utility that resizes partitions) is REALLY good.
[11:55] <Ataraxzy> there are several sobersabre.
[11:55] <RedLin1> I added a user when installing Ubuntu manually, but I cant logging in using it. How do I activate the account?
[11:55] <Prendy> Ok
[11:55] <rockets> gparted is really good if you remember to disable automoun t
[11:55] <Ataraxzy> bad hardware is the primary one.
[11:55] <myusrnm> I'm getting an error message "could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_file';
[11:55] <kitche> RedLin1: does the user have a password?
[11:55] <Prendy> I'll get gparted then :D
[11:55] <spy80us> how to add fonts?
[11:55] <RedLin1> kitche: I did set a password yes
[11:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Prendy: gparted is part of livecd
[11:56] <Ataraxzy> it's on the LiveCD, it's used as part of the install process Prendy, so you're good to go.
[11:56] <sobersabre> Ataraxzy: assuming the hardware worked the 1st boot, and after the 1st one it doesn't boot, I don't think you are right. unless I don't understand what you mean by "bad hardware"
[11:56] <Prendy> Oh ok
[11:56] <Prendy> :P
[11:56] <wastedfluid> Anyone ever see any issues with NetworkManager Appllet.. and it just randomly dying?  I never had this issue with Ubunut 6.06, but it just randomyl dies.. and will not reconnect unless I restart the router(Running 7.04) - However, none of my XP computers are having this issue.  Anyone ?
[11:56] <Ataraxzy> no, that's what I meant. you're right, it's probably not bad hardware.
[11:56] <Prendy> Is a MR.Data CD ok to burn on?
[11:56] <sobersabre> wastedfluid: NetworkManager is not the most stable application in the universe ;-)
[11:56] <Ataraxzy> MR.Data?
[11:56] <Ataraxzy> trued dat sober!
[11:57] <Hamnvik> Can anyone tell me the command for installing *.deb files from terminal?
[11:57] <Prendy> It's the name of the CD XD
[11:57] <Ataraxzy> s/trued/true
[11:57] <RedLin1> Can I logon as root somehow? I'm guessing that there is eaither a default password or simply no password set for root when you manually install Ubunto
[11:57] <sobersabre> Ataraxzy: what are you refering to ?
[11:57] <sobersabre> RedLin1: Read the Fine ubuntu manual.
[11:57] <Prendy> I'll just install ubuntu when I've downloaded it and hope for the best..
[11:57] <Ataraxzy> ahh, should be ok. Prendy. as long as you can write to it.  @sober: application stability.
[11:58] <sobersabre> RedLin1: by default root account's login ability is disabled.
[11:58] <wastedfluid> sobersabre; Any other ideas?  It doesn't die, it just won't connect.
[11:58] <Prendy> Yep
[11:58] <lusepuster_> bump - where to look for a usb memory stick to mount it?
[11:58] <sobersabre> wastedfluid: what are you talking about ?
[11:58] <NigelS> RedLin1: ubuntu doesn't enable the root account - it uses sudo, you shouldn't need to log in as root.  If you want to log in you need to set the password using passwd
[11:58] <wastedfluid> sobersabre; er, I mean, any other programs I could use..?
[11:58] <Prendy> My download is 14% Done >_>
[11:58] <sobersabre> wastedfluid: what do you need to achieve ?
[11:58] <Ataraxzy> you'll do fine prendy, it's easy.  are you on a laptop?
[11:58] <wastedfluid> sobersabre; er, I mean, any other programs I could use.. to replace Networkmanager Applet.. it just dies too much, and I have to restart my router.  I need a package to replace Networkmanager so I don't lose connectivity at random times.
[11:58] <RedLin1> thanks
[11:58] <Prendy> No
[11:59] <Prendy> I'm on a desktop comp
[11:59] <ni1s> The strangest thing happend, I accidently hit Hibernate when I was loging out, and X11 crash, I brefly saw somethin "libusb" and then power'd off, and now my computer refuses to start, anyone got any clues on what happend?
[11:59] <Ataraxzy> then you should be good to go from the outset.
[11:59] <sobersabre> wastedfluid: what hardware do you have for the dying connection ?
[11:59] <Prendy> Hopefully it won't break the wireless internet
[11:59] <Prendy> O.o
[11:59] <Ataraxzy> do you have a landline to connect to?
[11:59] <sobersabre> ni1s: how does it refuse to start ?

[12:00] <wastedfluid> sobersabre; Well, the card is an Atheros AR5005G.. the router is a Belkin.  None of my XP computers are having this issue.. and I never had this issue on 6.06LTS with .. ah, I forgot the program.  It has to be NetworkManager Applet.. or that's just what it appears to be to me.
[12:00] <IceLink> i cannot understand Nelos Mandela
[12:00] <RedLin1> I found out what I did wrong, I wrote "passwd <pass>" kind of stupid but after you've spent at least 6 hours installing a multi boot with a fakeraid with no previous experiance what so ever these things usually happens )(
[12:00] <ShackJack> ni1s: Maybe hold in power button :)
[12:00] <sobersabre> wastedfluid: and how are you using this card with linux ? which driver ?
[12:00] <Ataraxzy> ouch.  you might wanna put ubuntu on another hd.  the OS itself is going to take up 3G of space.
