[12:01] <ShackJack> chrisa: "Much of the discussion of refresh rate does not apply to LCD monitors. This is because while a phosphor on a CRT will begin to dim as soon as the electron beam passes it, LCD cells open to pass a continuous stream of light, and do not dim until instructed to produce a darker color."
[12:01] <azi> IndyGunFreak: no
[12:01] <azi> IndyGunFreak: i'll try gutsy now
[12:01] <azi> IndyGunFreak: and pray X works there
[12:01] <bruenig> what is roaming mode?
[12:01] <IndyGunFreak> azi: good luck, gutsy is still pretty experimental.
[12:01] <bulmer> alejandr0: what do you have, whats connected to which? the layout?
[12:02] <Gnea> chrisa: here's a shot in the dark: try setting vertical to 81 and horizontal to 76
[12:02] <ShackJack> revilodraw: Admin -> Network... select wireless and check it... may already be enabled though...
[12:02] <IndyGunFreak> azi: i'd try debian etch to, if you're just trying to find a debian distro that works(like ubuntu)
[12:02] <azi> IndyGunFreak: well, i don't have any other alternative
[12:02] <bruenig> give arch a try
[12:02] <azi> IndyGunFreak: except for trying to set up the network correctly
[12:02] <Gnea> chrisa: got those from here, if you're interested: http://brneurosci.org/linuxsetup92.html
[12:03] <Gizmo_the_Great> hi. I own a Geforce FX5600 256Mb graphics card. Installed Fesity Fawn recently. Installed the restricted driver. When I play 3D ganmes it's fine for about 15 minutes then the screen goes blank for about 10 seconds, then comes back but the graphics are all speckley and flickery. The same card in Dapper Drake was fine. Any ideas?
[12:03] <bruenig> it has superior package management and that was the only real reason for debian in the first place
[12:03] <azi> IndyGunFreak: but the dhcp wizard in text mode is just too lame
[12:03] <revilodraw> shackjack; yes this is what i do every time to make it connect... it used connect even before i had logged in!
[12:03] <IndyGunFreak> azi: wel,l like i said, Ubuntu is more or less a polished debian install, you could try a debian network install, see if it will detect your connection
 i have wifi that works on xp i wish it could work on ubuntu also
[12:03] <azi> IndyGunFreak: well i'm wondering why it doesn't like ifconfig & rotue
[12:03] <azi> routE*
[12:03] <bulmer> alejandr0: i asked for you to explain your layout..explain pls
[12:04] <IndyGunFreak> azi: i couldn't tell you
[12:04] <jowi> Gizmo_the_Great: this is just a guess but is your screensaver set to 15 minutes...?
[12:04] <Gizmo_the_Great> jowi, screensaver disabled - i think
[12:04] <Gizmo_the_Great> jowi, i will go and check
[12:04] <bulmer> azi there is an alternative..use ip tool
[12:04] <azi> bulmer: how?
[12:04] <bulmer> azi man ip
[12:05] <azi> bulmer: the text mode just starts the dhcp configuration
[12:05] <Gizmo_the_Great> jowi, yeah - disabled and was set at 2 hours anyway prior to me disabling it
[12:05] <Intensity> ShackJack: Okay, I've done all of the 915resolution configuration as suggested on the page.  Now the only thing I have yet to do is to decide what to do with xorg.conf.  Should I do another dpkg-reconfigure and assume that Debian will now understand there to be available a higher mode?  Or should I patch my existing xorg.conf?  In the latter situation, I guess I should leave the HorizSync at 28-96 and VertRefresh at 43-60 (I thi
[12:05] <Intensity> nk these were the autodetected values).  And it remains an open question whether I should disable DDC in this case.  And whether I should include the manual Modeline of "1680x1050" (x60).
[12:05] <IndyGunFreak> bulmer: will that work before ubuntu is installed?
[12:05] <azi> bulmer: then i open another shell and conf the network manually, but i can't test if it works or not as ping is not installed
[12:05] <bulmer> IndyGunFreak: huh? what do you mean?
[12:05] <jowi> Intensity: leave xorg.conf as is. reboot and see if it works.
[12:05] <IndyGunFreak> bulmer: azi can't install, thats why he's having this network problem
[12:05] <azi> bulmer: and the installation still want me to use this dhcp wizzard
[12:05] <bulmer> IndyGunFreak: ah okay..i thouht he's got one installed already
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> bulmer: no
[12:06] <ShackJack> Intensity: If you follow ubuntuguide.org you shouldn't need to touch xorg...
 i have NIC fast ethernet PCI RTL8139
[12:06] <Intensity> jowi: I did just that, and I'm back at 1600x1200.
[12:06] <Gizmo_the_Great> how can i find files with a creation date of today using either 'find' or 'grep'?
[12:06] <jowi> Gizmo_the_Great: oh well. it was just a thought. i'm not familiar with the nvidia/ati drivers with feisty.
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> azi: is this a laptop?
[12:06] <Surviver> can anyone give me good tutorials or sites where i can see and participate how i can reconfigure a kernel (recompile)
[12:06] <Intensity> jowi: With the monitor warnings of "Input Signal Out of Range".
[12:06] <azi> IndyGunFreak: correct
[12:06] <PriceChild> !kernel | Surviver
[12:06] <ubotu> Surviver: 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
[12:06] <Gizmo_the_Great> jowi, thanks anywa
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[12:06] <jowi> Intensity: does "sudo 915resolution -l" list 1680x1050?
[12:06] <banlieue> is there a reason 'gnome-screensaver' is constantly running, and is using between 10% and 20% CPU as we speak?
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> azi: whats the exact device, how does lspci identify it?
[12:06] <Intensity> jowi: Yes.
[12:07] <bulmer> alejandr0: i haft to go..you're a bit slow in answering my questions..ill be back later
[12:07] <orbisvicis> !ssh
[12:07] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[12:07] <Intensity> jowi: And, as before, I'm getting the error message on Xorg.0.log of "Not using mode 1680x1050 (no mode of this name)."
[12:07] <jowi> Intensity: in 32bit colordepth?
[12:07] <sp1nter> Gnea because a couple of options are not available on the ubuntu side like the 550gig HD
[12:07] <azi> IndyGunFreak: network device or graphic?
[12:07] <IndyGunFreak> network
[12:07] <Intensity> jowi: It shows as Mode 5c at 24 bits/pixel.  The default color depth for the xorg.conf is 24.
[12:08] <Gnea> sp1nter: ah - well as long as the hardware matches up, it shouldn't be a problem - they make 'em all the same as it is, hardware-wise
[12:08] <ShackJack> Intensity: jowi: I usuallt just ut the desired resolution first in xorg.conf and "force" the refresh values --- VertRefresh 80.0-80.0 etc...
[12:08] <Gizmo_the_Great> even though Fesity has the 'Restricted Drivers' easy peesy tick box for Nvidia, is it still better to use the proper method or using that Envy script that that Italion chap created?
[12:08] <Barry> Where do i find the device name for my dial up modem? "Enter the device name for your modem"
[12:08] <Intensity> jowi: It's also showing in mode 3c at 8bpp, 4d at 16bpp, but there is no 32bpp entry.
[12:08] <Anlar> jowi: there's no point using 32-bit as 99% of the lcd panels are 24-bit only
[12:08] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: Restricted Drivers works fine..
[12:08] <jowi> Intensity: should be 32bit.
[12:08] <azi> IndyGunFreak: it's an intel integrated 100mbit ethernet card
[12:08] <Gnea> !modem | Barry
[12:08] <ubotu> Barry: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[12:08] <azi> IndyGunFreak: i'm 99% the installation system detects it
[12:08] <sp1nter> Gnea: yea trying to see if anyone else has done this to see if it is matching up
[12:09] <Intensity> jowi: Maybe there's not enough memory to support 1680x1050 at 32 bpp.
[12:09] <ShackJack> Intensity: Erm... should be 24 :)
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> azi: then why won't it let you online
[12:09] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, OK. It weas just a thought as I am having problems with 3D ganming that I did not have before in Dapper Drake
[12:09] <jowi> Anlar: it has to do with the driver. should be 32bit in 915resolution and 24bit in xorg.conf. it's an intel thing. lol
[12:09] <Anlar> Intensity: no, never ever use 32bpp. it's 24.
[12:09] <Intensity> ShackJack: Okay, so it seems to be fine (the 915resolution output at least).
[12:09] <azi> IndyGunFreak: because it says it cannot reach the gateway
[12:09] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: You;re not running compiz are you?
[12:09] <jowi> Intensity: don't listen to Anlar
[12:09] <Gnea> sp1nter: *hint* i worked for dell's tech support for 6 months earlier this year.
[12:09] <r0b-> how do i make it so my normal user accout cant view my NTFS partitions?
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> is it wireless?
[12:09] <cornell> My primary workstation is Dapper, is the upgrade to feisty relatively smooth?
[12:09] <Gizmo_the_Great> compiz? How can I check and what is it?
[12:09] <r0b-> so i dont need to be root
[12:09] <azi> IndyGunFreak: i configured the network manually but i cannot test it as there is no proper tool for it (like ping)
[12:09] <Anlar> jowi: the lcd panels the way they were designed for consumer class can physically only do 24-bit, they will auto-convert 32bpp down to 24-bit :)
[12:09] <ShackJack> jowi: Eh? It's 24 - I'm quite sure...
[12:09] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack,  compiz? How can I check and what is it?
[12:09] <Anlar> jowi: ONLY some holy-crap expensive professional models do 32-bit
[12:09] <azi> IndyGunFreak: and the installer doesn't want to proceed from the network step
[12:10] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: It's the eye candy stuff - wobbly, fading windows, cube, etc..
[12:10] <IndyGunFreak> azi: is it wireless?
[12:10] <azi> IndyGunFreak: no
[12:10] <azi> IndyGunFreak: ethernet
[12:10] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, not that I am aware of. Is it on by default?
[12:10] <jowi> Anlar: do you have any experience with 915resolution and the i810 xorg driver?
[12:10] <Anlar> jowi: yes.
[12:10] <Intensity> Well, in any case, this still doesn't explain why my xorg.conf is giving the "No such mode" error.  I can't explain that.  Both the (previous) xorg.conf and the Xorg.0.log are on the pastebin.  It looks like a plain contradiction.
[12:10] <IndyGunFreak> azi: only thing i can suggest, is googling the EXACT device that lspci identifies it as..
[12:10] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: Nope...  Usually backing out screen is indicitave of not enough memory... You might want to turn down from 24 bits to 16 bits :)
[12:11] <alejandr0> i got no sound, how do i fix it?
[12:11] <IndyGunFreak> !sound
[12:11] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:11] <sp1nter> Gnea: do you why dell doesnt give options to add like second hds and things like that
[12:11] <Gnea> sp1nter: $
[12:11] <Intensity> Okay, I'm just going to do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[12:11] <alejandr0> !sound
[12:11] <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).

[12:11] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, I have a 256Mb Geforce NVIDIA card but when 3D gaming it starts to flicker and go grainy after 15 mins or so. It was fine in Dapper Drake though
[12:12] <r0b-> !NTFS
[12:12] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:12] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, which is why I asked about the Restricted Driver thing with Fesity
[12:12] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: Ahhh.
[12:12] <sp1nter> Gnea: wouldnt they make more if you could?
[12:12] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, trying to work out what the difference is
[12:12] <Gnea> sp1nter: mainly because this is the first test run for dell of selling systems with linux on the desktop - they tried 8 years ago with redhat and it flopped
[12:13] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: What color depth are you running? 16, 24, 32?
[12:13] <Dj-avu> somebody can help me about link tutorial for pppoe in ubuntu?
[12:13] <sp1nter> Gnea: i know that but i cant even find a place to do it on the pc side
[12:13] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, how can I determine that?
[12:13] <buzzbuzz> :)
[12:13] <jowi> Anlar: so do i. you set 915resolution to the correct res in 32bit, but xorg.conf to 24 bit. that's the way is works for the 945GM at least.
[12:13] <Gnea> sp1nter: the 'pc side'?
[12:13] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep -i defaultdepth
 i have NIC fast ethernet PCI RTL8139
[12:13] <jowi> Intensity: anyway. getting tired here. i hope you'll get it working.
[12:13] <Intensity> Shit.  Now I get 1600x1200 but it's a virtual screen (I have to scroll to see all of it).
[12:13] <Anlar> jowi: that's correct. and set xorg.conf to the proper mode 1600x1050 in his case
[12:13] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, Nice tiop :-) 24 bit
[12:14] <Intensity> jowi: Okay, thanks for your help.
[12:14] <Anlar> jowi: the auto-detect feature of 915resolution is likely broken for him, he has to run it manually :p
[12:14] <sp1nter> Gnea: microsoft
[12:14] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, should I try increasing to 32?
[12:14] <Anlar> Intensity: like 915resolution 5c 1600 1050 32 :p
[12:14] <Intensity> I would have thought having Modes "1680x1050" as the only entry in SubSection "Display" (in the autogenerated output) would have been sufficient.  I guess I need to put the ModeLine in manually.
[12:15] <Anlar> Intensity: modes does absolutely nothing for you. you don't need modelines at all.
[12:15] <Gnea> sp1nter: the only way they'll make more is if they can increase their volume
[12:15] <buzzbuzz> Damn! IRC in Pidgin Rocks. :)
[12:15] <jowi> Anlar: that you can be right about. Intensity try setting the reso in /etc/default/915resolution (use only the XRESO and YRESO values for now. now i need some sleep....
[12:15] <ShackJack> Gizmo_the_Great: Hmmm. that's a head scratcher - when in doubt - reinstall diver and restart X :)    (sudo aptitude reinstall nvidia-glx) ... Nah, if anything I'd try dropping to 16 bits :) But I might try the first thing first... can't imagine what it could be unless it is screensaver funkiness...
[12:15] <Anlar> Intensity: you just have to apply force to 915resolution likely. kill x, run it properly, restart x having 1600x1050@24bpp as default in xorg.conf
[12:16] <Gnea> sp1nter: if they can show that the demand for ubuntu on systems they sell is turning them a profit, then they'll offer more features in the future, such as larger hard drives
[12:16] <Intensity> Anlar: I changed 915resolution as you suggest.  Should I also modify /etc/default/915resolution to s/BIT=24/BIT=32/ ?
[12:16] <DragonWolf> Is there a version of Dream Weaver or Macromedia Flash floating around for Linux?
[12:16] <Gizmo_the_Great> ShackJack, thanks for that. I will give it a whirl. If no success I will post in forums. Thanks again
[12:16] <Intensity> Anlar: And should DefaultDepth be 32 or should it be 24?
[12:16] <ShackJack> Intensity: see ubuntu guide :) ... 24 should be default depth...
[12:17] <sp1nter> Gnea: but Ive even looked into buying one with windows preloaded and i cant get two hard drives
[12:17] <Anlar> Intensity: 24. 32bpp does nothing, and likely never will for you. as your hardware doesn't support it really.
[12:17] <Intensity> Yahoo!
[12:17] <Gnea> sp1nter: for which system?
[12:17] <Intensity> (not the website).  Well, in other words, that worked.
[12:17] <Intensity> Okay, so I have 1680x1050.  Now I think I need to tweak it a bit because it looks fuzzy.
[12:17] <witt> whenever I open adept, I keep getting message that it is locked for another process, I think some packages failed to install (Broken) How can I fix this>?
[12:18] <orbisvicis> !denyhosts
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about denyhosts - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <sp1nter> Gnea: XPS 410
[12:18] <Intensity> I'm in xvidtune.  I'm not sure what I can do with it, because there's no buttons that say "Fuzzier" and "Sharper". :)
[12:18] <ShackJack> Intensity: Yeah check out font settings, subpixel rendering, etc... And I use Vista's candara as default font - pretty!
[12:18] <Intensity> ShackJack: What do you mean by subpixel rendering?
[12:19] <alecwh> !wysiwyg
[12:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wysiwyg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:19] <sp1nter> Gnea: I dont really need another large one just a seperate one *jic*
[12:19] <Intensity> ShackJack: Okay.  Do you know whether I might be able to get 1680x1050 in SVGA or framebuffer versions of VNC?  Or do I need to run X?
[12:20] <alecwh> I'm looking for an HTML WYSIWYG editor that has support for web standards, does anyone have any suggestions?
[12:20] <Gnea> sp1nter: you can order the system with a RAID option and then reconfigure it on your end to use both hd's in a non-raid format.
[12:20] <ShackJack> Intensity: SOrry, can't tell you that :)
[12:20] <alecwh> amaya freezes my machine.
[12:21] <Gnea> sp1nter: but be forewarned: if you do that, and if you have a problem with the hardware, and you call technical support, they won't be able to help you unless it's in it's original raid configuration.
[12:21] <icicled> anyone have problems with keyboard input using firefox on multiple desktops?
[12:21] <Intensity> ShackJack: I'm connection to my previous vnc session at 1680x1050, and it's certainly fuzzier.  I am using an older laptop, but there has to be a reason for the greater fuziness.  I didn't expect that.  Could it be that my refresh rate might be too low?
[12:21] <ShackJack> alecwh: You could try nvu
[12:21] <alecwh> nvu is horrible, I've tried it.
[12:21] <ShackJack> Intensity: Fuzziness in type - check font settings - fuzziness in everything - confirm you are at right res...
[12:21] <alecwh> it's mutilating standards.
[12:22] <buzzbuzz> A lot of people say NVU is a Dreamweaver alternative.. I can't agree with that
[12:22] <sp1nter> Gnea: true
[12:22] <ShackJack> alecwh: Yeah, that's about it for WYSIWYG, though you can check out Quanta, tooo...
[12:22] <alecwh> OK.
[12:22] <ubuntu_> hey
[12:22] <twofclubs> Hi all i received a cd from a school i'm applying to ...there are a bunch of video files with .flv and .swf endings but i cannot seem to open them with any of the video players i have...i tried using vlc already? any suggestions?
[12:22] <ShackJack> alecwh: Quanta supposedly adhere to standards...
[12:22] <sp1nter> Gnea: but i dont ever call tech support anyway
[12:23] <alecwh> ok
[12:23] <alecwh> thanks
[12:23] <ShackJack> twofclubs: THose are flash files... open in FLash player..
[12:23] <Intensity> ShackJack: It can't be the font settings, because the VNC session has been kept alive in between the switch I made to a new laptop (it's a desktop that's still been running during the switch).  And, I am definitely at the correct resolution.  Thus, it seems to be a matter of the quality of the laptop's video card, or the settings that are being used to render 1680x1050 (there may be more than one refresh rate possible to render
[12:23] <Intensity> 1680x1050).
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> Anyone knows how i can customize Pidgin to NOT show Quits in IRC?
[12:23] <ubuntu_> i want to install ubuntu vista dualboot but how do i know im installing it on the right partition?
[12:23] <Gnea> sp1nter: if you want them to replace your broken hd while it's under warranty, you will ;)
[12:23] <twofclubs> i don't think i have flash player...
[12:23] <IndyGunFreak> buzzbuzz: thats easy, use xchat
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> no :P
[12:23] <Anlar> buzzbuzz: you can't.
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> actually
[12:23] <C-{pR0F> I want to burn an ISO file from the terminal ,can anyone help???
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> i used to
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> but its really nice in pidgin
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> so clean
[12:23] <buzzbuzz> =)
[12:24] <php-programmer> I have to set up port forwarding on my 1st router to get VNC to work
[12:24] <alecwh> Quanta is for KDE, will it work with GNOME?
[12:24] <eagle28> wow i just installed linux, its really hard to get around using after windows :/
[12:24] <buzzbuzz> alecwh: it does
[12:24] <LiberCogito> twofclubs: do you have flash installed in firefox?  try opening them with firefox
[12:24] <buzzbuzz> at least for me
[12:24] <alecwh> is there a downside?
[12:24] <Gnea> sp1nter: they're always changing things, so it may be a bit different these days
[12:24] <twofclubs> no i do not...i think i found a guide on how to get it though
[12:24] <ShackJack> !enter | buzzbuzz
[12:24] <ubotu> buzzbuzz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[12:24] <buzzbuzz> Sry.
[12:24] <alecwh> Arg, it's asking for my Ubuntu CD!
[12:24] <alecwh> :(
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> alecwh: take the cd out of your sources list
[12:25] <kkathman> alecwh:  you need to kill the cd line in your sources.list
[12:25] <alecwh> where is that?
[12:25] <buzzbuzz> Anlar: is it really not possible?
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> alecwh: open synaptic
[12:25] <alecwh> ok...
[12:25] <kkathman> alecwh:  its in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:25] <kkathman> just comment that line out
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> alecwh: once its open, tools/repositories
[12:25] <ShackJack> alecwh: Or Admin->Software Sources :)
[12:25] <alecwh> ok
[12:25] <IndyGunFreak> go to the bottom, uncheck cd, and reload synaptic
[12:25] <alecwh> cool
[12:26] <C-{pR0F> IndyGunFreak: I want to burn an ISO , from the terminal , can u help with that?
[12:26] <asdx> a friend of mine is installing ubuntu 7.04 on his server, is that ok?
[12:26] <IndyGunFreak> C-{pR0F: from terminal?.. no
[12:26] <sp1nter> Gnea: yeah id probably build my own but with my discount it doesnt really make sense to right now
[12:26] <alecwh> asdx, yes, why would there be a problem?
[12:26] <twofclubs> hey im trying to get flash installed...how do i do the following?
[12:26] <twofclubs> Now you need to copy the key for this Repository list using the following
[12:26] <twofclubs> sudo wget http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/EDD1E155.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[12:26] <asdx> alecwh: he wasnt sure to use desktop or server edition
[12:26] <asdx> alecwh: he went with the desktop one
[12:26] <ShackJack> C-{pR0F: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvdBurning
[12:27] <alecwh> asdx: It doesn't matter, but I would suggest the server one
[12:27] <alecwh> both can "act" like a server.
[12:27] <Intensity> Hmm.  svncviewer says "No suitable mode available" when I try to connect...  I was hoping to get 1680x1050 to work.  I guess it doesn't implement scrolling.
[12:27] <alecwh> the server has LAMP preinstalled
[12:27] <asdx> alecwh: what other things to consider on the server?
[12:27] <buzzbuzz> Is it definetly not possible to hide Quit messages in Pidgin IRC?
[12:27] <ShackJack> twofclubs: Just paste in a terminal...
[12:27] <alecwh> asdx: it doesn't have the ubuntu-desktop (as far as I'm aware)
[12:27] <alecwh> It's not meant to be user friendly
[12:27] <alecwh> just for a server.
[12:28] <alecwh> I think it has SSH server installed too.
[12:28] <dimas_> does anyone knows about video camera playing on the net?
[12:28] <ShackJack> !enter | alecwh
[12:28] <ubotu> alecwh: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:28] <alecwh> :P
[12:28] <kkathman> lol
[12:28] <buzzbuzz> =)
[12:28] <asdx> alecwh: ok, yeah, i just told him to go with the desktop, because he seems to be unfamiliar with CLI
[12:29] <buzzbuzz> Anlar: Have you tried to do it before? ;)
[12:29] <asdx> alecwh: not that unfamiliar, but i think he may want the gnome desktop
[12:29] <thinh> anyone have a good ebooks on shell scripting or recommendations?
[12:29] <kkathman> asdx uh yeah if you dont know CLI probably server would be a bit challenging to say the least
[12:29] <asdx> alecwh: out of the box
[12:29] <ShackJack> buzzbuzz: I thought it was, but I can't find for the life of me - maybe in Account Settings Preferences?
[12:29] <alecwh> well, it's OK then. It's not bad to go with the desktop one. It's just more convienent with the other.
[12:29] <asdx> kkathman: i know cli, it's for a friend :)
[12:29] <kkathman> asdx I meant him :)
[12:29] <asdx> ok :)
[12:29] <buzzbuzz> ShackJack: I searched around but didn't seem to find an option
[12:29] <Anlar> buzzbuzz: yes, and you can't.
[12:29] <asdx> just wanted to make that sure
[12:29] <asdx> thanks people
[12:30] <twofclubs> ShackJack: when i try to do the following sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree flashplayer-nonfree, i get the following error : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31729/
[12:30] <dimas_> i cant get flash player to display video from my web camera and driver works good and everything (ekiga and amsn)
[12:30] <Myzrael> hey folks
[12:30] <Anlar> buzzbuzz: please, submit the feature request at www.launchpad.net :)
[12:30] <alecwh> Are the Tengo icons available to pack with a Web Application?
[12:30] <Myzrael> Any people here that know how to fix a WINE issue here?
[12:30] <geezer> hi all
[12:30] <radioaktivstorm> ok, what all do i need to make the pidgin configure happy?
[12:30] <Myzrael> Runs very slow with counter strike source directx
[12:30] <cnlk> 
[12:30] <Intensity> Hmm.  Not good.  With directvnc, I get DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate( &dfb )] : Initialization error!
[12:30] <Untouchablee> i need help about GCC ...
[12:30] <Untouchablee> i need help about GCC ...
[12:30] <buzzbuzz> Anlar: Sure, will do!
[12:30] <kkathman> alecwh:  btw - I havent found a WYSIWYG dev tool yet that is even near compliant tho - mainly because compliancy depends on knowing CSS now and most all of those clients are weak
[12:31] <robert__> Anybody here have experience with USB HardDrives? I have one that has been working flawlessly for months, recently I added a second one and it keeps unmounting at random intervals?
[12:31] <banlieue> I seem to have multiple versions installed of certain packages; libwxbase2.6-0 + libwxbase2.8-0, libwxgtk2.4-1 + libwxgtk2.6-0 + libwxgtk2.8-0, linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic + linux-image2.6-11-generic, and a few more
[12:31] <banlieue> would it be safe to remove the earlier versions of these packages, or could that bite me in the butt?
[12:31] <ShackJack> twofclubs: You are using alternate reposity which doesn;t have file.. You can use Synaptic to force install from alternate location or easiest way is to you Adobe page to install Firefox plugin where you can then open those files.... (ubuntuguide.org)
[12:31] <alecwh> kkathman, I'm an experienced web developer, I just need to construct a tabular table, and it's easier to do it visually than with gEdit.
[12:31] <cnlk>  hello
[12:31] <Intensity> Hmm.  Strange.  It looks like directvnc requires a 2.4 kernel, according to /usr/share/doc.  I guess that the documentation is out of date, and instead they mean >= 2.4 kernel.
[12:31] <ShackJack> !hi | cnlk
[12:31] <ubotu> cnlk: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:32] <crimsun> banlieue: those are completely different packages.
[12:32] <Q3Man> having a firestarter problem.. I want to setup a forward rule. The docs say that a hostname is valid, but only IP's seem to work. For example, if I forward a port to computer.mydomain.com, it enters in firestarter but never creates a NAT entry in iptables. If I change the same entry to its ip (192.168.1.x), it creates the entry and works fine. It seems to be an iptables problem rather than firestarter... anyone have an idea? Do I need to l
[12:32] <Q3Man> oad a special hostname lookup module for iptables or something?
[12:32] <ShackJack> banlieue: Safe to remove earlier kernels if new ones work....
[12:32] <banlieue> crimsun: libwxbase2.6-0 is different from libwxbase2.8-0?
[12:32] <kkathman> alecwh:  if you are doing a tabular table and not using CSS your probably arent that experienced yet :)  But feel free :)  Quanta is probably the best the OSS has to offer I think
[12:32] <IndyGunFreak> robert_: thats a wierd problem, i've got 3 usb drives, that have been flawless, not to mention an IPOD on top of all that, no issues
[12:32] <banlieue> they take quite some space, actually
[12:32] <ShackJack> alecwh: Or run Dreamweaver MX in WIne :)
[12:33] <banlieue> i was assuming ubuntu was to use only 2.8-0, being newer and all
[12:33] <banlieue> but I was wrong in that, then?
[12:33] <geezer> anyone willing to help me with a stupid question?
[12:33] <dystopianray> geezer: just ask your question
[12:33] <robert__> Anybody here have experience with USB HardDrives? I have one that has been working flawlessly for months, recently I added a second one and it keeps unmounting at random. And everytime I boot it's in a different location in /dev/sdx
[12:34] <crimsun> banlieue: yes, it's different.  Not all packages have been recompiled against 2.8.
[12:34] <alecwh> kkathman, CSS is the language I've been studying for years now. Constructing a table that actually uses tabular data (prices... ect) a WYSIWYG editor is better. In fact, using CSS for it is not a choice option, earlier browsers don't support tables styled with CSS very well.
[12:34] <geezer> When I plug external USB drives into my ubuntu machine, i can't modify or save files to it.
[12:34] <geezer> tried logging in as root and changing permissions....
[12:34] <dystopianray> robert__: different /dev/sdx is normal, have you tried plugging into a different usb port?
[12:34] <banlieue> crimsun: ah so i'll be deselecting them again then :] 
[12:34] <banlieue> thanks
[12:34] <ShackJack> banlieue: Different proggies have different dependecies sometimes :)
[12:34] <dystopianray> geezer: is it NTFS?
[12:34] <andre_pl> is there a tool to determine the speed of my ram?
[12:34] <alecwh> Tables for layout is of course a bad option.
[12:34] <banlieue> ShackJack: you just saved me from the hassle of having to reinstall all this :]  ty
[12:34] <robert__> oh and v 6.06LTS if it matters
[12:34] <buzzbuzz> Anlar: I can't seem to find it at launchpad, do you have the URL?
[12:35] <kkathman> alecwh:  CSS is now mandated tho, so, its up to you how you style your tables.
[12:35] <robert__> dystopianray: I will try the other port maybe it will help
[12:35] <ShackJack> banlieue: Every use deborphan - it's pretty cool :)
[12:35] <salle[] > Hi I have a question, is there any program out there with which I can easily create a network bridge? I'd preffer not to use the console.
[12:35] <alecwh> kkathman: mandated? CSS is a specification... and merely a "suggestion" for web developers.
[12:35] <geezer> but it says it's read only#
[12:35] <Intensity> What I'm getting is fuziness in the display.  It looks much less clear than it did on the other laptop.  That could be due to the video card itself, perhaps.  It's much older.  But, when I enter in the ModeLine for 70Hz refresh rate, then I get a lower resolution overall, that attempts to pan to show me a 1680x1050.  The thing is, xdpyinfo isn't clever enough to show me the "true" resolution.  It is juts showing me the virtual r
[12:35] <Intensity> esolution.
[12:35] <kkathman> alecwh:  lol.. well ok..hehe
[12:35] <dystopianray> geezer: is it NTFS?
[12:35] <ShackJack> alecwh: True, but any developer worth their salt uses CSS :)
[12:36] <geezer> yeaj, I think it prolly is ntfs. Formatted in Windozze originally.
[12:36] <banlieue> ShackJack: i have not, but i'm about to apt-get it :] 
[12:36] <dystopianray> geezer: so you'll need to get ntfs-3g setup
[12:36] <geezer> I'd like to be able to read and write to it in both win and linuxx
[12:36] <alecwh> kkathman and ShackJack: Glad we can agree. But it's important to realize that tables are not bad, and ARE SUGGESTED for tabular data.
[12:36] <ShackJack> banlieue: Be careful with it... it has a gui front end - too...
[12:36] <ShackJack> alecwh: Oh, I know that - was just saying about CSS -- anyway , back to topic :)
[12:37] <nickrud> Intensity, xrandr shows resolutions, and asterisk's the one in use. That _may_ help
[12:37] <geezer> ntfs-3g: Is that a file system? Will I have to re-format the drives?
[12:37] <kkathman> alecwh:  I didnt say that CSS was solely used for tabular data. but if you do look up the standards, you'll find that new standards have deprecated many HTML commands with the end result pointing toward their implementation in CSS
[12:37] <ShackJack> geezer: No - just a think to read/write to windows ntfs filesys
[12:37] <dystopianray> geezer: no, it will give you ntfs write support in linux
[12:37] <Happu> geezer: no, it just allows you to read and write ntfs
[12:37] <kkathman> so, as I said, use at your own discretion
[12:37] <dystopianray> !ntfs | geezer
[12:37] <ubotu> geezer: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:38] <dystopianray> !ntfs-3g | geezer
[12:38] <ubotu> geezer: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:38] <ShackJack> dystopianray: THat's  the one :)
[12:38] <kkathman> ShackJack:  yep, had my own company now for 10 years, and was web devving long before that :)
[12:38] <robert__> dystopianray: Tried changing comports still won't automount it. Anyone know of something to actively query USB ports?
[12:38] <ShackJack> kkathman: You hirin' -- hee hee :)
[12:39] <dystopianray> robert__: what do you mean by 'actively query' ?
[12:39] <dystopianray> robert__: lsusb?
[12:39] <kkathman> ShackJack: hmm..maybe in the near future, but contractors only at this point :)
[12:39] <geezer> ok, that's plenty to work on. Thanks ubotu, dyst. I'll do some research and see if I can taek it from there.
[12:39] <radioaktivstorm> i want to install pidgin  but it doesnt like my computer, can someone help?
[12:39] <dystopianray> geezer: ubotu is a bot
[12:39] <robert__> dystopianray: ya like that. Still only shows the DVD burner and 1 good drive though. It's like the other drive just disappeared
[12:39] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: What do you mean "doesn't like" you have to be more specific...
[12:39] <dystopianray> radioaktivstorm: you need to be mroe specific
[12:40] <alecwh> kkathman: The elements that are deprecated (<b>,<i>,<strong>,<strike>,<center>...) doesn't mean that they are removed. Browsers WILL continue to implement them for the sole reason of completeness. They aren't recommended. However, there are NO table elements that are deprecated, because there isn't a replacement. You can create a table with CSS, however the methods are not widely supported, and won't be very useful until a more XML based web is
[12:40] <dystopianray> robert__: try plugging the non-good drive into the port that the good drive is using
[12:40] <ShackJack> !topic | alecwh: kkathman:

[12:40] <kkathman> yah
[12:40] <radioaktivstorm> sorry, meant to continue, accidentally hit the return. libxml dependency is not satisfied but i have that. is there a special repo i have to pull from or something?
[12:40] <Intensity> nickrud: Okay, thanks for the info.  Well, it's looking like there's no more I can do to save the quality of the display from a software standpoint.  I'm getting fuzzy qualities in the current output.  But, when I had the other laptop connected to the external monitor instead of this (older) one, I did get quality output.  Both are doing 1680x1050.  Yet the laptop I'm now connecting to it is years older.  So it is my conclusion
[12:40] <Intensity> that I can't really make the display any better.  It is fuzzy output on a LCD screen.
[12:41] <surkit> its 23:40
[12:41] <alecwh> kkathman: I win. ;)
[12:41] <surkit> time to get on it!
[12:41] <surkit> bbl
[12:41] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: You might not have right version of lib?
[12:41] <nickrud> Intensity, bummer
[12:41] <the_gl1> hi, my swap is dead (no more swap) what can I do ?
[12:41] <radioaktivstorm> shackjack,  i realize this... but im trying to figure out where to obtain the proper version.... aptitude says i already have it
[12:42] <dystopianray> the_gl1: what do you mean it's 'dead' ?
[12:42] <banlieue> ShackJack: libs given by deborphan should generally be safe to remove, right? :)
[12:42] <robert__> dystopianray: nevermind I think it's a HW problem. I just powercycled the drive and it shows up on lsub though does not automount
[12:42] <the_gl1> dystopianray: no more detected, htop return 0/0Mo
[12:42] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: You're installing Pidgin from deb file
[12:42] <Intensity> nickrud: Yeah, I didn't expect this.  I'm just looking to create an X terminal that can connect to a VNC session.  I knew that performance might be an issue (if the laptop was slow), but I didn't expect that the quality of the output might be determined by the video card.  It seems to be that situation however.
[12:42] <the_gl1> and I have big 'slowing moments', I remark this today
[12:43] <ShackJack> banlieue: Yes
[12:43] <radioaktivstorm> Shackjack, i have encountered no deb, trying to install from source.
[12:43] <dystopianray> the_gl1: what does this show? $ cat /proc/swaps
[12:43] <ShackJack> banlieue: But watch it on the other stuff... as some packages are "stand-alone' and deb orphan don't get that :)
[12:43] <nickrud> Intensity, cheap/older lcd's simply have worse displays.
[12:43] <nickrud> Intensity, you did try the subpixel hinting
[12:43] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: Maybe checkout deb from getdeb.net ?
[12:43] <dystopianray> robert__: try taking the hdd in it and putting it inside the known good enclosure
[12:43] <banlieue> yea, i'll only be using it on libs:)
[12:43] <the_gl1> only headers dystopianray
[12:43] <banlieue> thanks for the suggestion
[12:44] <dystopianray> the_gl1: what happens if you manually turn on your swap?
[12:44] <Intensity> nickrud: Yes, I agree with your last statement.  But the external monitor is new, and it's the same.  The thing that has changed is the laptop that's being connected to it.
[12:44] <the_gl1> command  ?
[12:44] <nickrud> radioaktivstorm, if you're doing source, did you get the appropriate -dev deb for your xml lib?
[12:44] <dystopianray> the_gl1: sudo swapon /dev/blah
[12:44] <ShackJack> banlieue: And it will never get the old kernels as they aren't orphans :)
[12:44] <geezer> thanks ppl. bye
[12:44] <Intensity> nickrud: If you're speaking about how I can render fonts differently, then that wouldn't be a solution for me (since I'm not only seeing the same resolution, but am attaching to the very same VNC session and so I can make an objective comparison).
[12:45] <nickrud> Intensity, I don't remember much about when I was learning scan rates and all that, and problably didn't know much then :)
[12:45] <nickrud> Intensity, yeah, I missed the external monitor bit
[12:45] <the_gl1> ho, swap is now actived dystopianray
[12:45] <Intensity> nickrud: Then does it seem to be a purely hardware issue here?
[12:46] <dystopianray> the_gl1: check dmesg to see if there are any swap related errors
[12:46] <radioaktivstorm> nickrud, im not sure, i am relatively new to compiling from sources on *nix.  i installed libglib build-essential and libgtk2.0-dev
[12:46] <nickrud> Intensity, same cable, monitor, relevant xorg section, I'd say hardware
[12:47] <radioaktivstorm> ShackJack, this site is a gem! thanks
[12:47] <ShackJack> Intensity: Jiggle the cord! :)
[12:47] <the_gl1> dystopianray: no, only reference are in syslog, for my last command
[12:47] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: Yeah, it's pretty cool - did Pidgin install for you?
[12:47] <nickrud> radioaktivstorm, apt-get build-dep gaim   (that should pull in all the dev packages needed to build gaim/pidgin) but better to follow ShackJack's suggestion if you can
[12:47] <banlieue> ShackJack: phew, that saved me a whopping 254KB of disk space, not taking into account deborphan's install size ;)
[12:47] <robert__> dystopianray: any advise on how to get the location of a usb device from lsub?
[12:47] <Intensity> ShackJack: I'd rather jiggle the laptop. :)
[12:47] <alex__> is there in ubuntu a way to show in terminal (command) the modules he load at startup ?
[12:47] <pilotlg747> where can i report a bug in 2.6.20-16-generic?
[12:48] <dystopianray> robert__: unless you know which ports correspond to which buses, then no
[12:48] <alex__> !report bug
[12:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about report bug - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:48] <alex__> !bug

[12:48] <robert__> dystopianray: then how would you mount the device manually?
[12:48] <Intensity> ShackJack: The laptop's pretty old...  But I can do a quick test - the third laptop I have is in between the ages of the two laptops, and it has etch installed on it.  So all I have to do is repeat the tweaks, and attempt to run the resolution as a comparison.
[12:48] <alex__> dystopianray, mzz ok
[12:48] <dystopianray> robert__: oh you mean the /dev/ location, check /dev/disk/*
[12:49] <the_gl1> What can I do me ? Add the command in rc.local ?

[12:51] <radioaktivstorm> nickrud, ShackJack, thanks for all of the help.... if all goes well ill be back with a fresh install of pidgin :D
[12:51] <dystopianray> banlieue: maybe try 'who -a'
[12:52] <johannes> Hi. Can I use a devilspie script to make a window be selected?
[12:52] <ShackJack> Mmmm... pie....
[12:52] <banlieue> dystopianray: alright, ty
[12:53] <K0brik> some bugged by system. How do I scan for bugs?
[12:53] <K0brik> my system
[12:53] <sotec_prod> Does dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg install the video card driver as well, supposing it was missing due to my building a new kernel?
[12:53] <dystopianray> K0brik: what sort of bugs? a rootkit?
[12:54] <K0brik> it sends passwords with my emails
[12:54] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: No - just configures... You have to install driver
[12:54] <radioaktivstorm> hooray! pidgin works ^^ thanks for the help
[12:54] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: Or rebuild driver :)
[12:54] <sotec_prod> ShackJack, is it wise to use Envy to do such from the command line if X crashes on reboot?
[12:54] <dystopianray> K0brik: who put it on your system?
[12:54] <ShackJack> radioaktivstorm: That's cool - P.S. You can remove GAIM with no ill effect..
[12:55] <radioaktivstorm> shackjack: thanks  :)
[12:55] <K0brik> dystopianray: I don't have a clue where it got in. some broken ubuntu package I guess
[12:55] <sotec_prod> oh yea, what is the driver rebuild command?
[12:55] <OregonJim> Hello. I have a question about saving an image from my laptop drive to a USB drive before performing an upgrade from edgy to fiesty.
[12:55] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: Which driver? Binary? I just sudo aptitude :)
[12:55] <sotec_prod> ATI open source
[12:55] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: That's if you're building from source - same as building anything else...
[12:56] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: Just sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-ati :)
[12:56] <sotec_prod> sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-ati?

[12:56] <sotec_prod> awesome, thanks. just covering all my bases, supposing X crashes on reboot. I'm compiling my own kernel patched with Con Koliva's patchset
[12:57] <sotec_prod> :)
[12:57] <korhalf> i tried "killall esd" to kill any processes tha could be tying it up
[12:57] <dystopianray> korhalf: you mean it freezes?
[12:57] <CerebroJD> What is the recommended amount of ram to run Ubuntu with?
[12:57] <korhalf> no
[12:57] <korhalf> i jus tdont hear any sound
[12:57] <OregonJim> When initially tried to install Fiesty on my Evo N620c, it misdetected the HD as a SCSI drive, and I had to get a universal boot cd and change fstab. If I do an online
[12:57] <dystopianray> CerebroJD: i'd say 512MB
[12:57] <Jbirk> Questio about desktop effects
[12:57] <dystopianray> CerebroJD: as a minimum I mean
[12:57] <Jbirk> My cube doesn't work
[12:57] <Jbirk> It did work
[12:57] <Jbirk> But I installed Compiz fusion
[12:57] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: At least 384MB is best if running GNOME - 256 is passable..
[12:57] <Jbirk> and everything went to hell
[12:57] <m_sheep> test
[12:57] <Jbirk> I removed compiz fusion
[12:58] <dissection> lshw -short|grep eth0 <--- When I run this command, it gives me a warning saying that I should run as super user. Is there a way to make this command work without that warning?
[12:58] <OregonJim> upgrade, will it use the edgy settings and just work as usual or do you folks think I should do a drive image of some sort??
[12:58] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: You can get xubuntu if you desire lighter requirements...
[12:58] <Jbirk> then I reinstalled ubuntu-desktop
[12:58] <sotec_prod> taking forever to build and package this kernel...
[12:58] <sotec_prod> probably have another 2 hours left
[12:58] <korhalf> dystopianray: yo man, how do i check my sound make sure it sworking
[12:58] <Music_Shuffle> dissection, yeah, add sudo in front of it :P
[12:58] <CerebroJD> ShackJack, ok, cause a friend of mine is putting ubuntu on his 7 year old comp
[12:58] <korhalf> i switched to alsa, i wanna use JACK tho cuz im running ubuntu studio
[12:58] <dystopianray> korhalf: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[12:58] <CerebroJD> and I think he's havin problems lol
[12:58] <ShackJack> !sound | korhalf
[12:58] <ubotu> korhalf: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:58] <dissection> Music_Shuffle: I mean without using sudo.
[12:58] <GBeath> control panel...sounds
[12:59] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: What are specs (just curious)
[12:59] <CerebroJD> I dunno, and he's not positive either
[12:59] <dystopianray> CerebroJD: how much memory does he have?
[12:59] <CerebroJD> so this is kinda a shot in the dark lol
[12:59] <jmchaffie> Trying to playback DVD i-robot. Just re-installed. had no probs before. Followed directions on web. perhaps I missed something... Any help?
[12:59] <OregonJim> bump
[12:59] <Music_Shuffle> dissection, login as perma-root?  Apparently, you have to be root to execute the command; any other way around it is kinda going to result in the same as just using sudo
[12:59] <GBeath> or my computer...properties....hardware then device manager
[12:59] <Music_Shuffle> OregonJim, bump...what?
[12:59] <johannes> How can I activate a window with a certain name automatically, without having to click on it each time it appears?
[12:59] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Got some tips for you....
[01:00] <OregonJim> Wondering what folks think about my being able to use the built-in upgrade facility in Synaptic.
[01:00] <Morrison__> how can I install ubuntu in a sata HD
[01:00] <CerebroJD> ShackJack, ok, fire away
[01:00] <jmchaffie> It plays warning and rating intro, then quits... ???
[01:00] <CerebroJD> its a Dell Dimension 4300, apparently
[01:00] <Morrison__> ?
[01:00] <dissection> Music_Shuffle: Okay is there a different command then that'll display the network card's name? I'm executing the command using a script in irssi, so I can't login as root.
[01:00] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Pop in live CD and type cat /proc/meminfo   and cat /proc/cpuinfo   in a terminal and you'll see how much memory and cpu info...
[01:00] <theshadow> How do I get firefox to use mplayer instead of totem?
[01:00] <dystopianray> Morrison__: the same way you install it onto a non-sata hdd
[01:01] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: I've got Ubuntu on my Dimension 4500 (slightly newer) 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4 and 1gb and it runs great of course...
[01:01] <OregonJim> Music-Shuffle: I wanted to ask what others thought about upgrading with the Synaptic method. I had a problem when I tried to install
[01:01] <Morrison__> but the ubuntu don't find the HD Partitions,,,
[01:01] <OregonJim> Fiesty originally on this box.
[01:01] <Intensity> Well, this is looking good.  Haven't even started X yet on the new laptop.  But the external display of text mode on the external monitor is already looking more clear.
[01:01] <dystopianray> Morrison__: what is the sata controller?
[01:01] <dystopianray> Morrison__: what partitions are supposed to be there?
[01:01] <GBeath> on MB connection
[01:01] <Music_Shuffle> OregonJim, If you specify what..kind of problem, bet someone in here could help
[01:01] <jmchaffie> Anyone have time to field a DVD playback question? It plays the warning and rating, then kicks out.
[01:01] <Morrison__> [dystopianray] : vt8237
[01:01] <GBeath> smaller then ATA
[01:02] <Anlar> Morrison__: go to your bios, enable legacy ide emulation or something like that, retry
[01:02] <dystopianray> Morrison__: same as me, mine works without issue, that's just an old via controller
[01:02] <GBeath> partitions are on the hard drive not the controller
[01:02] <theshadow> How do I get firefox to use mplayer instead of totem?
[01:02] <Hibame> Anyone know if there are ANY linux drivers for ubuntu?
[01:02] <Jbirk> install mozilla-mplayer
[01:02] <Music_Shuffle> Hibame, ...what?
[01:02] <the_gl1> dystopianray: it's work now, it's was my fstab who was worng, but I don't understand why it's borken now, it's make month that I switch my drives and I nver update it. But thanks
[01:02] <dystopianray> Hibame: ubuntu IS linux
[01:03] <Hibame> Erm linux ASUS drivers
[01:03] <CerebroJD> heh
[01:03] <ShackJack> jmchaffie: Check out: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[01:03] <OregonJim> Original problem was that when I tried to install Fiesty on my Compaq EVO N620C, it seemed to install correctly, but the hd was detected as SCSI. I did manage to get it to work after changing FSTAB, but it seemed to still be 6.06lts (weird).
[01:03] <PriceChild> Hibame, asus is a laptop manufacturer right?
[01:03] <sotec_prod> Hibame, shouldn't need them
[01:03] <Music_Shuffle> PriceChild, mobo too
[01:03] <Hibame> I need them
[01:03] <sotec_prod> mine works fine without the bios drivers
[01:03] <jmchaffie> I believe that's what I did already.. will try it again though
[01:03] <dystopianray> OregonJim: detected as scsi as in.. had a /dev/sd# entry? that is normal
[01:03] <lethologica> asus does make a few laptops amoung other things
[01:03] <Hibame> I need drivers for my wireless
[01:03] <n2diy> theshadow: menu>system>preferences>preferred apps
[01:03] <ShackJack> OregonJim: Did you try sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude -f dist-upgrade ? :)
[01:03] <PriceChild> Hibame, it is not an asus wireless card...
[01:03] <OregonJim> I have a spare drive in a usb enclosure and want to image the hd on my laptop to that. Is there a simple way to do that?
[01:04] <PriceChild> Hibame, could you tell us what make/model it is?
[01:04] <sotec_prod> Hibame, motherboard, laptop, what?
[01:04] <dystopianray> OregonJim: feisty uses libata for pata devices which makes them appear as scsi devices, it is completely normal
[01:04] <Morrison__> [dystopianray] : but the ubuntu don't find the partitions in the HD ( 2 fat and 1 ntfs), it shows like there no partitions
[01:04] <Hibame> PriceChild its an onboard wireless g on the mobo
[01:04] <PriceChild> Hibame, could you tell us what make/model it is?
[01:04] <CerebroJD> oh christ
[01:04] <dystopianray> Morrison__: what does 'sudo fdisk -l' show?
[01:04] <PriceChild> Hibame, find it from "lspci"
[01:04] <CerebroJD> ShackJack, 128 megs of sdram
[01:04] <OregonJim> dystopianray It would not boot when I completed the install.
[01:04] <m_sheep> OregonJim: you can use the dd command to make a backup image
[01:04] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Eggg... Either get more ram or you want Xubuntu - and even then you'd have to use alt install CD maybe...
[01:04] <dystopianray> OregonJim: was there an error?
[01:05] <Hibame> PriceChild: ASUS P5AD2-E Premium LGA 775
[01:05] <K0brik> maybe I should go debian
[01:05] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Ram is cheap!
[01:05] <Jbirk> Why did my desktop cube quit working?
[01:05] <dystopianray> Hibame: we need the model of the wireless card
[01:05] <sotec_prod> Xubuntu worked GREAT for my 350mhz, 256mb RAM machine
[01:05] <CerebroJD> sdram is hard-ish to find tho
[01:05] <Morrison__> [dystopianray] : it shows the partitions , i only can see then in fdisk,
[01:05] <Music_Shuffle> ShackJack, SDRAM isn't, actually.
[01:05] <revilodraw> im sick of being asked for my password all the time...what can i do?
[01:05] <PriceChild> Hibame, could you tell us what make/model the wireless card is?
[01:05] <Anlar> sotec_prod: the only thing how that sort of machine works great is free fall from the roof
[01:05] <ShackJack> Jbirk: Check out #ubuntu-effects :)  Or check that you have 4 desktop enebaled in compiz config...
[01:05] <dystopianray> Morrison__: well eithere there is a bug in the partitioner, or you have an error in understanding what it is saying
[01:05] <PriceChild> revilodraw, you only need your password when administering your system.
[01:06] <OregonJim> dystopianray cannot remember the exact error, but changing fstab let me boot. I had tried to install over a 6.06 and when I edited
[01:06] <PriceChild> Hibame, use lspci to find out
[01:06] <ShackJack> Music_Shuffle: I guess it's relative :)
[01:06] <Music_Shuffle> :D
[01:06] <dystopianray> OregonJim: what did you change the fstab from and to?
[01:06] <ShackJack> revilodraw: Asked for password for what?
[01:06] <sotec_prod> Anlar, it never did me wrong...i have a better machine now, but Xubuntu gave new birth to that old dinosaur
[01:06] <revilodraw> pricechild: i know... i guess i do a lot of administering
[01:06] <OregonJim> dystopianray fstab to chand all the sdx to hdx, it would boot but it seemed to still be 6.06.
[01:06] <PriceChild> revilodraw, If you want to get rid of sudo and everything then you might as well give everyone here your password because you'll lose your security
[01:06] <dystopianray> OregonJim: sounds like it didn't install at all
[01:06] <sotec_prod> then my roommate gave me his Athlon XP 2.08mhz
[01:06] <dem0n> hi
[01:06] <revilodraw> pricechild: ok ill stop whingeing
[01:06] <ShackJack> !hi | dem0n
[01:06] <ubotu> dem0n: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:07] <dissection> Is there an alternate command other than using lshw to display the name of the Network card, in terminal?
[01:07] <dystopianray> OregonJim: /etc/fstab should not have any actual device nodes in it, everything is using UUIDs now
[01:07] <Morrison__> [dystopianray] : I think that there is an error in partition table, because fdisk says anything like this
[01:07] <dystopianray> dissection: lspci
[01:07] <Flex3000> Help:  My screen keeps flickering, I've found that nVidia cards arent the best, but until I can afford to replace it, how can I deter the flickering?
[01:07] <PriceChild> revilodraw, I think it is possible to make a longer timeout on sudo for how long it remembers it... but I can't remember off-hand sorry
[01:07] <sotec_prod> revilodraw, the password asking is a beautiful thing, don't complain....or go back to Windows and deal with crashes and viruses, lol
[01:07] <Hibame> Well PriceChild it looks like a Marvell card all it says for numbers is 88W8310 and 88W8000G [Librtas]  902.11g client chipset (rev 07)
[01:07] <dem0n> uh wtf i use a router so i have to forward all my ports would it be smart to forward ports 1-10000
[01:07] <OregonJim> dystopianray Well, maybe I ought to format the usb drive, remove the built-in hd and try again with a fiesty boot cd.
[01:07] <PriceChild> Hibame, pastebin the output of lspci please.
[01:07] <dystopianray> Hibame: can you paste the entire line?
[01:07] <CerebroJD> ShackJack, suggested he try xubuntu
[01:08] <PriceChild> dem0n, that wouldn't be smart
[01:08] <dem0n> well
[01:08] <CerebroJD> (btw, is that pronounced zoo-buntu?)
[01:08] <orbisvicis> how can i ping/detect/get a list of all computers on a lan ?
[01:08] <dystopianray> OregonJim: you are trying to install onto a usb drive?
[01:08] <dem0n> i dont feel like forwarding millions of ports
[01:08] <Music_Shuffle> CerebroJD, 's how I say it
[01:08] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Yep.
[01:08] <Flex3000> Hello?  Any video card gurus on?
[01:08] <dystopianray> orbisvicis: use nmap
[01:08] <sotec_prod> ex-oobuntoo
[01:08] <PriceChild> Flex3000, ask your question and see :)
[01:08] <sotec_prod> that's how i pronounce it
[01:08] <Hibame> dystopianray: thats basicly the whole line minus the ethernet contoller part
[01:08] <Flex3000> I just did. :-P
[01:08] <Flex3000> Help:  My screen keeps flickering, I've found that nVidia cards arent the best, but until I can afford to replace it, how can I deter the flickering?
[01:08] <n2diy> orbisvicis: ping -b netmask
[01:08] <CerebroJD> is the alternate install cd a text-mode installer?
[01:08] <orbisvicis> dystopianray, is that the same as network tools under system->services ?
[01:08] <PriceChild> CerebroJD, yes
[01:08] <ShackJack> CerebroJD: Yep.
[01:08] <OregonJim> dystopianray No, sorry. I got a spare drive to try and install Fiesty on (after I had put 6.06 on it). When it would not install properly, I reinstalled my...
[01:09] <dystopianray> orbisvicis: no idea
[01:09] <orbisvicis> ty
[01:09] <dystopianray> orbisvicis: sudo apt-get install nmap
[01:09] <dystopianray> orbisvicis: (assuming 192.168.1.0/24 subnet) $ nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24
[01:09] <OregonJim> dystopianray original drive with 6.06 on it, and am now upgraded to Edgy. The reason I have not upgraded to Fiesty is because of
[01:09] <glangston> has anyone had issues with Automatix? it's been working just fine for me....
[01:09] <dystopianray> glangston: automatix is largely irrelevant now
[01:09] <Flex3000> *
[01:10] <ShackJack> glangston: Until you go to upgrade :)
[01:10] <orbisvicis> dystopianray, got it thanks
[01:10] <sotec_prod> apparently we can use the new 2.6.22 kernel now...someone told me it's more stable
[01:10] <PriceChild> glangston, That is not a support question. Please keep this chanel ontopic
[01:10] <OregonJim> dystopianray the problem I originally had with it. I wonder if I could use Synaptic's upgrade and get a good install, but was thinking about
[01:10] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, No.
[01:10] <dystopianray> sotec_prod: it will appear in gutsy
[01:10] <dem0n> what ports gaim use
[01:10] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, ubuntu does not contain the 22 kernel. What you have is perfectly fine.
[01:10] <PriceChild> !highno | sotec_prod
[01:10] <ubotu> sotec_prod: A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine. You should have a better reason than "newer" when considering compiling from source or using 3rd party repos.
[01:10] <OregonJim> dystopianray making an image of the current  Edgy system onto my "spare" drive to have a backup if it fails.
[01:10] <khales> Can anyone help me with Evolution? I'm deleting emails, empty trash, but they are still saved in Cache directories.
[01:10] <Hibame> PriceChild and dystopianray: here is the entire dumphttp://pastebin.com/m7e7d8574
[01:10] <sotec_prod> well, I subscribed to the Con Koliva's mailing list, and that was what someone told me
[01:11] <ShackJack> dem0n: You can see in your accounts preferences...
[01:11] <dem0n> kk
[01:11] <dystopianray> sotec_prod: just wait till gutsy
[01:11] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, Use the 22 kernel and you will not get support here.
[01:11] <jahid> how can i see available space in my ubuntu?
[01:11] <jahid> i mean, disk space
[01:11] <dystopianray> jahid: df -h
[01:11] <jahid> dystopianray, thanks:)
[01:11] <Flex3000> How can I stop my screen from flickering?
[01:11] <PriceChild> Hibame, could you do the same with lsusb please?
[01:12] <jmchaffie> Yep, does the same thing when I follow those directions. I can't find a menu either to get past it. Is it possible that the DVD won't allow computer playback??? Never had that issue before though...
[01:12] <ShackJack> Flex3000: Sure it's not hardware issue - loose cable, etc.?
[01:12] <zinox> where I found firefox 3 to download?
[01:12] <Flex3000> Positive.
[01:12] <sotec_prod> well, i'm compiling using the current available kernel version, 2.6.20
[01:12] <dystopianray> OregonJim: ok, so where are you intalling feisty to?
[01:12] <dem0n> is it tcip or udp
[01:12] <ShackJack> Flex3000: Try changing resolution?
[01:12] <korhalf> sounds still not working im afraid
[01:12] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, Why on earth are you recompiling the kernel?
[01:12] <Flex3000> Yes
[01:12] <sotec_prod> just something I heard about the new kernel. I DO plan on waiting until Oct. for the new kernel
[01:12] <korhalf> does anyone wanna help me trouble shoot this?
[01:12] <dem0n> is it tcip or udp
[01:12] <Hibame> PriceChild: http://pastebin.com/m156f75ee
[01:12] <Flex3000> Same on 800 x 600
[01:13] <sotec_prod> PriceChild, I am applying Con Koliva's patchset to it
[01:13] <Flex3000> Im on 1280 x 768 now
[01:13] <OregonJim> dystopianray I plan to image my hd to the usb hd, then swap the two drives and use a Fiesty cd to install.
[01:13] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, Why?
[01:13] <dystopianray> dem0n: netstat -tulp | grep -i gaim
[01:13] <sotec_prod> I'm adding it as an alternative kernel to test it out
[01:13] <PriceChild> Hibame, It doesn't look like you have a wireless card.
[01:13] <sotec_prod> because it's supposed to have better desktop home user specs to it, performance wise
[01:13] <OregonJim> dystopianray Wait, I meant I wanted to swap the drives and use Synaptic to upgrade to Fiesty. Sorry
[01:13] <Hibame> PriceChild: look at the first pasteb I did line 18
[01:13] <PriceChild> Hibame, oh wait I'm silly... I see it now :)
[01:14] <PriceChild> Hibame, I got thrown off by it being labelled "ethernet" sorry
[01:14] <OregonJim> dystopianray so maybe I should read up on dd then, heh?
[01:14] <sotec_prod> PriceChild, have you read the recent article about Con Koliva?
[01:14] <Hibame> PriceChild: its cool, your the one helping me :D
[01:14] <dem0n> how do i find out my internal il
[01:14] <dem0n> ip
[01:14] <dem0n> **
[01:14] <PriceChild> dem0n, ifconfig
[01:14] <dystopianray> OregonJim: oh your question has been how to make the image? yes use dd
[01:14] <ShackJack> Flex3000: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  perhaps adjust so refresh rate matches you're mointor
[01:14] <dystopianray> dem0n: ifconfig
[01:14] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, No... and you haven't answered my question.
[01:15] <OregonJim> dystopianray and it will make a bootable image then??
[01:15] <sotec_prod> to understand, you should read the article...i'll get it, one sec
[01:15] <dystopianray> OregonJim: I have no idea what you're trying to do
[01:15] <dystopianray> OregonJim: you want to make a bootable usb drive from your existing edgy install?
[01:15] <sotec_prod> http://members.optusnet.com.au/ckolivas/kernel/
[01:15] <PriceChild> Hibame, could you pastebin iwconfig and ifconfig just for me to make sure?
[01:15] <sotec_prod> first, that
[01:15] <sotec_prod> then
[01:16] <Tonar> Are the MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE created in every session or just once. Does gdm creates them?
[01:16] <OregonJim> dystopianray here.. I am not being clear. I want to do an image of the built-in hd to the usb hd. THEN I will swap out the built-in hd with the just-created imaged USB drive. Then use Synaptic to do an upgrade and see how it works.

[01:17] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, Unless you really know what you're doing... which it doesn't sound like seen as you can't tell me what these patches actually do... I strongly advise you against recompiling the kernel. You _WILL_ come up unforseen problems, patches not applying, things will break, etc. etc.
[01:17] <sotec_prod> PriceChild, full article here http://apcmag.com/6735/interview_con_kolivas
[01:17] <OregonJim> synaptic yes.
[01:17] <Cyber34> the wrapper, that is supposed to be on the CD, when i try to install it via Synaptic decides to try to download instead of just installing
[01:17] <dystopianray> OregonJim: you can use dd to do that
[01:17] <dissection> dystopianray: Thanks! That worked. Is there also a command I can use to display the connection speed, i.e. 10Mbps, 100Mbps, etc?
[01:17] <dystopianray> dissection: ethtool
[01:17] <OregonJim> dystopianray thanks for your patience. I am going to go read the dd howto.
[01:17] <sotec_prod> These are patches designed to improve system responsiveness with specific emphasis on the desktop, but suitable to any workload.
[01:18] <dystopianray> dissection: sudo ethtool eth0 (or wahtever the interface is)
[01:18] <PriceChild> Hibame, right you're going to have to use ndiswrapper i think... I have no experience with it but here's a guide:
[01:18] <PriceChild> !ndiswrapper | Hibame
[01:18] <ubotu> Hibame: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:18] <dissection> dystopianray: Any other command? I mean one that does not require sudo.
[01:18] <PriceChild> Hibame, bah not that one
[01:19] <dystopianray> dissection: no
[01:19] <louisgaulin> I have a question regarding my network card. It works under the live cd, but when ubuntu 7.04 is installed on the hard drive (this is on a Tecra A8 Laptop), the nic card doesn't work. Any idea?
[01:19] <PriceChild> Hibame, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[01:19] <dystopianray> louisgaulin: what nic is it?
[01:19] <PriceChild> Hibame, good luck....
[01:19] <sotec_prod> PriceChild, the reason he developed these patchsets are because the linux dev's are currently turning away from the home user, and focusing on corporations and enterprise technology and appeal. He's sick of it because linux was initially a 'for the user, by the user, of the user' mantra, but now seem to be wanting the commercial recognition and putting us, the average home user on the back burner
[01:20] <Intensity> I'm running xorg on the newer laptop, and although the monitor can do 1680x1050, Xorg says Not using mode "1680x1050" (no mode of this name).  1680x1050 doesn't appear in the list of VESA modes in Xorg.0.log; instead, I do see 1600x1200.  Would the next step be to disable option DDC?
[01:20] <[T] ree> I, too, have a question about wireless networking via Ubuntu
[01:20] <Hibame> PriceChild: Aye thanks, Ill try. Will this allow me to also bridge a connection?
[01:20] <sotec_prod> so he devised patchsets specifically designed to target home user desktop performance
[01:20] <[T] ree> I'm testing it with the LiveCD
[01:20] <louisgaulin> It is an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection driver
[01:20] <Surviver> can anyone tell what the module: ppdev  stands for ...
[01:20] <PriceChild> Hibame, first things first... if you can get this working then that should be ok ;)
[01:20] <Hibame> PriceChild: Ok
[01:20] <Hibame> PriceChild: Thanks
[01:21] <Cyber34> ndiswrapper is supposed to be installed on the LiveCD itself is it not?
[01:21] <dystopianray> Surviver: parellel port iirc
[01:21] <[T] ree> I've got the two files that I needed, but when I went to install the wrapper-utils, it tries to download.
[01:21] <Surviver> dystopianray, so basically for printing?
[01:21] <dystopianray> Surviver: no, for anything that uses a parallel port
[01:21] <Intensity> Nope.  That didn't work.  Xorg is saying "Searching for matching VESA mode(s)", yet I don't see how that search is really relevant.  Does that mean I cannot specify 1680x1050 as a resolution?
[01:21] <Surviver> dystopianray, mzz thats a better definition :p well i can remove that one:D
[01:22] <dem0n> when some one is sshed to you how dose he run commands on my computer?
[01:22] <dystopianray> dem0n: by typing them out with his keyboard
[01:22] <dem0n> i did it dosent work
[01:23] <sotec_prod> Did you get all that PriceCHild?
[01:23] <dystopianray> dem0n: do you see a terminal prompt?
[01:23] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, yes
[01:23] <aristad_> hello! How do I make that a script can be run by everyone with root privileges? I tried making the script owned by root and setting the "set-uid" bit, but it doesn't work. Any ideas?
[01:23] <Cyber34> How does one go about installing a package that's already supposed to be on the CD? Aptget and synaptic pull the data from the net when I try to install it
[01:23] <dem0n> i have the terminal up on the machine that i am useing to connect to mine
[01:23] <sotec_prod> PriceChild, does it sound completely faulty to think that his patches might actually work?
[01:24] <dystopianray> dem0n: have you logged in via ssh? and seeing the remote prompt after the login?
[01:24] <dem0n> yess
[01:24] <dystopianray> dem0n: so type a command and press enter
[01:24] <[T] ree> -_-
[01:24] <PriceChild> sotec_prod, To me it sounds completely faulty that you want to even attempt to use them...
[01:24] <dem0n> dem0n
[01:24] <Surviver> dystopianray, i delete those modules in console with rmmod x..  , after i reboot they come back or stay away?
[01:24] <[T] ree> This channel is too chaotic. It appears impossible to get anybody's attention here.
[01:25] <unagi> [T] ree: that hasnt been my experience here
[01:25] <Agenator> hello
[01:25] <sotec_prod> Well, like I said, it will be an alternative kernel choosable from GRUB, so if it renders no real results or if it attempts to render my system useless, then away it goes.
[01:25] <Agenator> can i ask a question?
[01:25] <dystopianray> Surviver: don't delete anything that you don't know how/why itw orks
[01:25] <savetheWorld> or - if you have the [ character in your nick, no one wants to talk to you.
[01:25] <sotec_prod> I won't be writing over my current kernel
[01:25] <r0b-> nixternal
[01:25] <[T] ree> Well, I've been speaking, but no one had been noticing.
[01:25] <LiberCogito> !enter | [T] ree
[01:25] <ubotu> [T] ree: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:25] <unagi> that is true too savetheWorld [T] ree it is quite annoying to type your name
[01:26] <sotec_prod> And it compiles all current modules into the new one, so it should in effect, be my current kernel, plus the performance patchsets
[01:26] <Surviver> dystopianray, well i know what iam doing but i dont know or it will be placed back after reboot lol :D
[01:26] <khales> Can anyone help me with Evolution? I'm deleting emails, empty trash, but they are still saved in Cache directories.
[01:26] <riddlebox> what can I use to sync my cellphone to my laptop?
[01:26] <Anlar> [T] ree: you have not actually asked anything, just mumbled.
[01:26] <Intensity> I run ddcprobe and it shows ctiming: 1680x1050@59.  But, under /^mode: / I see nothing.  Is it a requirement that 1680x1050 is listed as a mode?
[01:26] <savetheWorld> I make it a rule not to converse or help people who use [ or_ in their nicks.
[01:26] <sotec_prod> that's the idea anyway
[01:26] <[T] ree> [7:21:03p]  <[T] ree> I've got the two files that I needed, but when I went to install the wrapper-utils, it tries to download.
[01:27] <Anlar> [T] ree: that was a statement.
[01:27] <Anlar> [T] ree: and you are not even telling any of the really important details.
[01:27] <dystopianray> Surviver: you should not be deleting any kernel modules
[01:27] <unagi> what is the problem you are having [T] ree
[01:27] <dystopianray> Surviver: what exactly is the purpose of deleting modules?
[01:27] <[T] ree> I thought it'd be redundant to restate the question.
[01:27] <LiberCogito> [T] ree: and []  around t isn't??
[01:28] <aristad_> Cyber34: try adding the cdrom-repository to your sources.list (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#head-7b4ba9c71df331383c85fa08d14bca91a24ce17a)
[01:28] <sotec_prod> Tree, it's redundant to restate the question whilst still leaving out the important details....your question is vague, at best
[01:28] <Anlar> [T] ree: we have no idea, might be "trying to download" for instance your hdd full of porn.. or what error messages you have got etc..
[01:28] <Agenator> my friend is trying to install ubuntu through wubi and everytime he does it his computer wont boot up
[01:28] <Surviver> dystopianray, well i try to make my pc lighter , with stuff i dont need on boot up , this is an old pc it take some time to boot up so thats why i try to delete some so it goes faster
[01:28] <Agenator> can some1 help me?
[01:28] <dem0n> paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31735/
[01:28] <Agenator> or him
[01:28] <sotec_prod> Surviver, try DSLinux
[01:28] <sotec_prod> :D
[01:28] <unagi> [T] ree: whats wrong with downloading them
[01:28] <LiberCogito> Surviver: Why not just use a lighter window manager?  xfce, or iceWM
[01:28] <sotec_prod> or Xubuntu
[01:29] <Surviver> liberCogito, dunno think i just like gnome lol :D
[01:29] <sotec_prod> yep, or xfce
[01:29] <matt1234> where should i go for help on beryl/emarald?
[01:29] <dystopianray> Agenator: wubi?
[01:29] <LiberCogito> matt1234: There
[01:29] <PriceChild> Agenator, wubi isn't an officially supported instillation method, its still beta afaik. Suggest to him that he uses the cd.
[01:29] <sotec_prod> xfce is just like gnome, but lighter :D
[01:29] <LiberCogito> is a beryl chat down the hall :)
[01:29] <matt1234> LiberCogito, There?
[01:29] <sotec_prod> and you get that nifty right click on the desktop menu :D
[01:29] <sotec_prod> which i love
[01:29] <sotec_prod> i miss that
[01:29] <ShackJack> [T] ree: If you keep your question to one line, and also address the ppl replying to you, it'll be easier to follow :)
[01:29] <Surviver> sotec_prod, mzz i see
[01:29] <dem0n> this is the error i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31735/
[01:29] <LiberCogito> matt1234: There is a beryl chat down the hall.  sorry, cat on keyboard
[01:29] <n2diy> matt1234: #ubuntu-effects
[01:30] <sotec_prod> wtf is mzz?
[01:30] <matt1234> haha, ok, thanks
[01:30] <matt1234> peace
[01:30] <ShackJack> [T] ree: P.S. tap Tab to autocomplete IM handles...
[01:30] <[T] ree> Here's my problem: I have a wireless network card and I'm trying to configure it for Ubuntu. I got the .inf and .sys files that I need. I went into Synaptic to install the wrapper. However, instead of running it off the disk, it tried to download it. However, I do not have an internet connection, as it's what I was trying to set up in the first place. How might I go about overcoming this? Note: I'm on the LiveCD.
[01:30] <dystopianray> dem0n: you need to use the -X option when you ssh to run X apps
[01:30] <dem0n> what u mean
[01:30] <dem0n> how do i do that
[01:30] <dystopianray> [T] ree: you're online right now, download the files you need and copy them into your network-less machine
[01:30] <dystopianray> dem0n: ssh -X blah
[01:31] <Anlar> [T] ree: oh, you can look with packages.ubuntu.com for the file and download it, put on usb stick.. and then double click to install on the networkless computer
[01:31] <dem0n> uh im useing a windows machine
[01:31] <binarydigit> anyone know what would cause a fakeraid setup to boot off a different drive in the mirror each time
[01:31] <dystopianray> binarydigit: non-deterministic drive detection most likely
[01:31] <ShackJack> dem0n: Get Putty for an SSH client...
[01:31] <binarydigit> dystopianray, hmm
[01:31] <dem0n> i did
[01:32] <dem0n> it is putty
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> binarydigit: i worked for several hours to make a raid setup work, never succeeded, hosed vista twice, finally gave up and went non-raid, all was well.
[01:32] <dystopianray> dem0n: you'll need to find an X11 server for windows
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> binarydigit: i'm sure it can be done, but i gave up on it.
[01:32] <binarydigit> IndyGunFreak, its driving me nuts, i got the setup working, but everytime i reboot, its russian roulette as to which drive it will boot from
[01:32] <Anlar> dem0n: cygwin
[01:32] <binarydigit> its like i have 2 linux installs
[01:32] <dem0n> the remote machine that i am connecting to is linux useing open-sshd
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> binarydigit: well, you got further than i did.
[01:32] <Jurph> So I've been trying to install Ubuntu from the 7.04 desktop install CD, on an KT133+Athlon 950 with 640 MB of RAM and an 80GB drive (more specs on request) and it keeps staggering to a halt at about 60% installed.  It says it can't find a file, but it's a different file each time.  It blames the CD-ROM drive, but I've tried two different drives and two different install disks (each burned at 1x).  Could it be something else?
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> i love it, russian roulette.
[01:32] <dystopianray> dem0n: that is irrelevant,you need X11 installed on windows
[01:33] <dem0n> km now where do i get cygwin
[01:33] <binarydigit> i think it has something to do with me using LVM as my root partition, instead of pointing it to the device/mapper for the raid
[01:33] <dystopianray> dem0n: google cygwin
[01:33] <unagi> what is windows?
[01:33] <[T] ree> Anlar: That helps. What's the Terminal command to install a package from a location?
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: download again, and burn slower, or download and burn the alternate install cd
[01:33] <unagi> !windows
[01:33] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[01:33] <Anlar> [T] ree: sudo dpkg -i <filename>
[01:33] <Jurph> IndyGunFreak, I've already downloaded twice and burned at 1x (can you burn slower than 1x?).  Where do I find the alternate install CD?
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: nevermind, i see you've alredy  addressed burnspeed, use the alternate install cd
[01:34] <Anlar> Jurph: I feel for you man.. KT133 ARGH. that chipset is one of the buggiest ones ever made, extraordinarily horrible even for a via chipset :O
[01:34] <olive> http://windows.is.communi.st ?
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: http://www.ubuntu.com
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: hang on.
[01:34] <[T] ree> Anlar: I see. Thank you.
[01:34] <[T] ree> To the rest of you: Thanks for what help you offered.
[01:34] <Anlar> [T] ree: the gui method should work as well, and whine about missing dependencies pretty well
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: here..  http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu/releases/7.04/    the alternate install CD, will have alternate in the file name of the iso
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: are you downloading the 64bit iso, or the 32bit?
[01:36] <evan_> hey ive installed ubuntu and installed nvidea but my schreen res wont go higher as 1024 by 700 or so how can i fix it?
[01:36] <Jurph> 32-bit -- but thanks for checking that.  I almost made that mistake.
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: no sweat, mistakes happen
[01:36] <menkio> anyone know if ubuntu will support a sun netra t1
[01:36] <unagi> [t] ree had quite an attitude on him didnt he
[01:36] <Anlar> menkio: it should, and should work pretty well
[01:36] <evan_> also the frequensy stays 50 instead of 60
[01:37] <Anlar> menkio: if it says "sun" and "t" on it, it is likely pretty sweet 8)
[01:37] <menkio> hehe good deal
[01:37] <Jurph> Indy, Anlar - thanks for your help.  I'll report back if I have more problems.  Thanks!
[01:37] <LiberCogito> unagi: so much so im tempted to register that name cause i bet he didn't
[01:37] <menkio> wasn't sure if it was ultrasparc
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> Jurph: 10-4
[01:37] <dem0n> do i need setup.bz2
[01:37] <unagi> lol nice
[01:38] <dystopianray> dem0n: this isn't cygwin help i'm afraid
[01:38] <Rog1> does anyone know the package i need to install so i can compile programs from src ?
[01:38] <Delta32521> i have an issue with my screen resolution when i try to install off the live CD...
[01:38] <Rog1> Delta whats the issue ?
[01:38] <greenmanwitch> Why is ubuntu debian based and not from scratch?
[01:38] <dystopianray> Rog1: build-essential, and any other deps the prog has
[01:38] <Rog1> thx dystopianray
[01:38] <unagi> !quicktime
[01:38] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:38] <dystopianray> greenmanwitch: debian is an excellent base to work off
[01:38] <unagi> is there quicktime for linux?
[01:39] <Delta32521> my resolution is too small to properly see all of the dialog box that i need to install
[01:39] <dystopianray> unagi: no 'official' quicktime
[01:39] <greenmanwitch> dystopianray, but the fact that it is downstream means they rely on debian..
[01:39] <LiberCogito> unagi: Nope
[01:39] <Delta32521> so i can't click the [next]  button that i assume should be there
[01:39] <unagi> thats to bad
[01:39] <Rog1> Delta32521: i had that issue aswell when you first boot boot into safe graphics mode
[01:39] <nick_> anyone know how to stop my ubuntu smb server to stop asking windows machines for a user/pass
[01:39] <greenmanwitch> also, what does ubuntu give back to debian?
[01:39] <unagi> yet another reason to keep windows around..........just on a smaller partition ;)
[01:39] <dystopianray> greenmanwitch: debian is free to take back whatever they want
[01:39] <aristad_> How do I make that a script can be run with root privileges by everyone? I tried making the script owned by root and setting the "set-uid" bit, but it doesn't work. Any ideas? Any link where to read?
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> Delta32521: does your monitor have an "auto adjust" button?
[01:39] <Delta32521> yes
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> have you tried it?
[01:40] <Rog1> booting into safe graphics mode works
[01:40] <greenmanwitch> dystopianray, so it is a matter of.. they don't want to? hahah. :P
[01:40] <Rog1> it did for me anyway
[01:40] <Delta32521> IndyGunFreak: the button doesnt affect the screen resolution, so i'm still stuck
[01:40] <greenmanwitch> alright, thanks guys.
[01:40] <dystopianray> greenmanwitch: ask debiam, i don't know
[01:40] <Delta32521> Rogl: thanks, i'll try it in a moment
[01:40] <dystopianray> greenmanwitch: debian *
[01:40] <greenmanwitch> okay, I will.
[01:40] <Rog1> cool
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> Delta32521: correct, it doesn't, but usually it will adjust the screen, to where you can see everything on the monitor
[01:40] <armandocerna> nick: set the user access level to share in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file
[01:40] <LiberCogito> greenmanwitch:  This is a support channel.  For questions about the existance and formation of ubuntu, I suggest you go ask the devs.
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> once the system is installed, youc an address your resolution issues
[01:40] <Delta32521> okay
[01:40] <Delta32521> i'll try both suggestions out
[01:40] <Delta32521> thanks
[01:41] <Delta32521> cheers
[01:41] <greenmanwitch> LiberCogito, oh... well do you support Xubuntu? I was thinking of trying it :\
[01:41] <Dj-avu> somebody have tutorial about pppoe in ubuntu?
[01:41] <unagi> you know, i hate it when im in a public area and everyone walks up to me to ask 'are you getting wifi right here?????'
[01:41] <LiberCogito> greenmanwitch:  xubuntu has its own room'
[01:41] <greenmanwitch> alright, bye guys

[01:41] <contradiction-pi> howdy. i'm trying to install monodevelop, but it says i need glib-sharp-2.0, and i can't find it. any ideas as to where i can get it?
[01:42] <n2diy> Dj-avu: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[01:42] <codesnik> I have a problem with locales. I've choosed "no localization" during ubuntu installation, but then i've added "locales" package. still locale -a shows only C and POSIX locale, why?
[01:42] <LiberCogito> contradiction-pi: have you done all your updates?
[01:42] <Dj-avu> ok thanks
[01:42] <contradiction-pi> yes
[01:42] <contradiction-pi> i can't find it in the apt tree
[01:43] <dystopianray> contradiction-pi: apt-get install monodevelop works here
[01:43] <codesnik> i have en_US.UTF-8 dir in /usr/share/locale, why locale can't see it?
[01:43] <LiberCogito> !wireless
[01:43] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:43] <n2diy> Dj-avu: That should keep you busy for a while! :)
[01:43] <menkio> so netra t1 runs ubuntu well
[01:43] <menkio> think i should get a couple
[01:43] <armandocerna> unagi, contradiction-pi: did you try apt-get install gtk-sharp2?
[01:43] <menkio> making a folding@home farm
[01:44] <unagi> armandocerna: ???
[01:44] <armandocerna> unagi: sorry accidently tab completed your name
[01:44] <unagi> lol
[01:45] <contradiction-pi> armandocerna: i'm trying it now
[01:45] <unagi> i wonder if quicktime works under wine
[01:45] <maximal> Where can I get the kernel source for Feisty (2.6.20.16-generic)?  kernel.org only has 2.6.20.15 - the linux-source-2.6.20 package contains 2.6.20.3
[01:45] <ShackJack> unagi: Quicktime works - I think it's one of the gstreamer packages ...
[01:46] <crimsun> maximal: ignore EXTRAVERSION.  It _is_ 2.6.20-16.
[01:46] <sotec_prod> Well, the new kernel worked with a reconfig of my video drivers
[01:46] <dystopianray> menkio: the sun t1 isn't built for high performance computation
[01:46] <sotec_prod> I wonder if all my kernel modules are in place still....
[01:47] <sotec_prod> well, Synaptic cranked right up...usually takes a second
[01:47] <bo2> Should I be able to load Thunderbird 2 from feisty?
[01:47] <sotec_prod> Also, my boot time was significantly faster
[01:48] <maximal> crimsun: the kernel name is 2.6.20.3-ubuntu1
[01:48] <bo2> It only offers Thunderbird 1.5
[01:48] <ShackJack> bo2: You can install manually or there's a third party repo for it...
[01:48] <dystopianray> menkio: sun t1 may support 8 hardware threads, but only has a single shared FPU, so it is already horribly crippled for floating point computation
[01:48] <ShackJack> bo2: http://ubuntu.iuculano.it/dists/feisty/thunderbird/  --- get key on homepage
[01:48] <sotec_prod> Is my system 'snappier' as the patchset suggests?
[01:48] <dystopianray> menkio: it's likely to perform quite poorly at folding@home
[01:48] <crimsun> maximal: right.  I said ignore EXTRAVERSION.
[01:49] <sotec_prod> I don't know, i'll give it a couple dayus
[01:49] <sotec_prod> days
[01:49] <Burlynn> is there anyway for me to get compiled latest compiled madwifi drivers? my laptop has no internet without them, and i obviously cant build them without build-essential .. anyone?
[01:49] <crimsun> maximal: e.g., change it before you make *config
[01:49] <sotec_prod> so far, no breakage, Beryl still works, and i have yet a couple things to tweak
[01:49] <bo2> SJ: Thanks!
[01:49] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: Beryl is so last month... Compiz Fusion is the way forward :)
[01:50] <sotec_prod> lol, is that so?
[01:50] <maximal> crimsun: ok thanks
[01:50] <sotec_prod> what's the advantage?
[01:50] <sotec_prod> and is it in the repo's?
[01:50] <nick_> armandocerna what parameters do i need to set in smb.conf. i can't seem to get it to work
[01:50] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: Well, it's a bit off topic, but briefly, Beryl is being remerged back into compiz -- new plugins for compiz fusion only... But some neat new plugins --- Reflections, Expose, abd others...
[01:51] <dystopianray> sotec_prod: it'll be in gutsy
[01:51] <clearzen> sotec_prod: I don't think it's in the repos. I used git for the source
[01:51] <ShackJack> sotec_prod: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion?highlight=%28fusion%29
[01:51] <dystopianray> sotec_prod: compiz-fusion is the compiz and beryl teams working together
[01:51] <ryanakca> Why would ubuntu-server need alsa-base and alsa-utils?
[01:51] <peeps_work> sotec_prod, beryl was a branch of the compiz code, and the communities ultimately resolved their differences and merged again.
[01:51] <clearzen> sotec_prod: but a huge advantage is the fact that the beryl and compiz teams are working on it now
[01:52] <sotec_prod> awesome, i think i'm a convert :)
[01:52] <menkio> if i'm installing ubuntu via console cable, i want the text based iso installer disc right ?
[01:52] <maximal> crimsun: I'm trying to debug a suspend problem in 2.6.20.16 - I can suspend/resume once only and then it hangs.
[01:52] <sotec_prod> i'll check it out
[01:52] <dystopianray> menkio: that's right
[01:52] <nick_> anyone know how to stop my ubuntu smb server to stop asking windows machines for a user/pass
[01:52] <maximal> crimsun: The problem I have is that the problem has gone away with the 2.6.20 kernel I have just compiled
[01:52] <nick_> anyone know how to stop my ubuntu smb server to from asking windows machines for a user/pass
[01:53] <clearzen> nick_: it's in the smb.conf file
[01:53] <clearzen> nick_: I believe you change user to share
[01:53] <imbecile> what do i need to play mp3 files? \
[01:53] <dystopianray> nick_: there should be an smb.conf option to pretend that everyone connecting is a specific user
[01:53] <dystopianray> nick_: otherwise, if you set o+r perms on the share, then that should work too
[01:53] <dystopianray> nick_: o+rx i mean
[01:54] <ShackJack> imbecile: gstreamer plugins -- check out http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Multimedia_Players_.26_Browser_Plug-ins
[01:54] <dystopianray> imbecile:gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly iirc
[01:54] <imbecile> ShackJack:  thanks
[01:54] <ShackJack> imbecile: Though Movie player should prompt for install when tryng to play for first time..
[01:54] <noelferreira> i have a dyndns account and i use ddclient to update my dinamic ip. however i need a script that would run a daemon every time my ip changes and automatically update it via ddclient. anyone can help me?
[01:54] <LiberCogito> Okay, my wireless card is detected, and configured, but it doesn't seem to be finding the wireless connection right next to me?
[01:55] <Burlynn> Anyway to get precompiled madwifi drivers? no internet without them so i cant just get the tarball and build them .. any help?
[01:55] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: You have network manager installed?
[01:55] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: Err... running..
[01:55] <unagi> anyone here used mandriva at all?
[01:55] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: Yep
[01:55] <ShackJack> !offtopic | unagi
[01:55] <ubotu> unagi: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:55] <clearzen> Burlynn: there are .deb packages on the net for madwifi
[01:55] <n2diy> LiberCogito: seperate them, you could be overloading the receivers.
[01:55] <dystopianray> Burlynn: you need a specific madwifi version for your card?
[01:56] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: Roaming mode enabled?
[01:56] <unagi> !offtopic | ShackJack
[01:56] <ubotu> ShackJack: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:56] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: Yep
[01:56] <Burlynn> dystopianray: well just the newest afaik
[01:56] <CountX> where might i find a cheap copy of windows?
[01:56] <unagi> does anyone know what the name of the network util in mandriva is or if it is available for ubuntu or if there is one similar to that one for ubuntu?
[01:56] <dystopianray> CountX: not here
[01:56] <CountX> ..
[01:56] <unagi> CountX: why would you want to buy windows
[01:57] <ShackJack> !offtopic | CountX
[01:57] <dystopianray> CountX: ##windows
[01:57] <ubotu> CountX: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:57] <unagi> let me rephrase CountX why would you want to rent windows
[01:57] <CountX> i cant play supreme commander on ubuntu
[01:57] <clearzen> CountX: use cedega
[01:57] <CountX> or use any of the applications i need for windows
[01:57] <unagi> !cedega
[01:57] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[01:57] <unagi> what apps do u need
[01:57] <dystopianray> Burlynn: feisty should have the newest release, except a minor point release or two earlier
[01:57] <CountX> i tried that, they dont support supcom
[01:57] <_tcc> I just installed Feisty Fawn on my r51e thinkpad. During the steps in which it sets up the HAL and ACPI modules, it gets very slow.
[01:57] <nick_> dystopianray i can't figure this out.  they work fine from my mac and my other linux comps, and my xbox but not winders
[01:57] <sotec_prod> ooooooo, Compiz-Fusion is tits!
[01:57] <_tcc> Takes about 5 minutes to boot.
[01:57] <_tcc> Any reason for this?
[01:58] <CountX> unagi: 3ds max
[01:58] <dystopianray> nick_: does the share have o+rx perms?
[01:58] <clearzen> CountX: That sucks. all my games work.
[01:58] <dystopianray> all my games work too
[01:58] <Burlynn> dystopianray: in a default install? may 1st was the revision i need or right around there apparently
[01:58] <nick_> yeah
[01:58] <CountX> clearzen: have you gotten bf2142 to work?
[01:58] <clearzen> CountX: haven't tried
[01:58] <CountX> clearzen: it doesnt
[01:58] <unagi> CountX: why not run maya?
[01:58] <thinh> compiz fusions works on fiesty or wait for gutsy?
[01:59] <dystopianray> thinh: wait for gutsy
[01:59] <CountX> clearzen: because i dont know maya, nor feel like shelling out the 500$ for a student lisence
[01:59] <fbc> I can't format my SD card even when it's unmounted. I'm using gparted.
[01:59] <dystopianray> thinh: unless you absolutely need the latest and greatest for some reason
[01:59] <clearzen>  thinh: works great on feisty for me
[01:59] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: any ideas?
[01:59] <thinh> okey i can wait 2 months
[01:59] <dystopianray> fbc: are you running gparted as root?
[01:59] <unagi> you say you dont know maya as if 3ds and maya are really that different
[01:59] <thinh> bad side effects with compiz fusion?
[01:59] <thinh> oh fiesty?
[02:00] <fbc> dystopianray, hmm.. I should shouldn't I.
[02:00] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: Trying to catch a mouse... What kind of encryption on wireless network?
[02:00] <CountX> unagi: ok, then i dont want to buy maya
[02:00] <ShackJack> thinh: Nope...
[02:00] <clearzen> thinh: Actually it's less buggy than beryl was for me
[02:00] <thinh> oh i c
[02:00] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: None.  Get a cat.
[02:00] <adelie> is there a way to resort a directory of mp3's by id3 tag?
[02:00] <unagi> lol ok countx have fun with that
[02:00] <unagi> but linux is better for those kind of apps
[02:00] <CountX> unagi: i have a full license for 3ds max 9, from work and i dont feel like dealing with switching the formats and such, finding plugins and all that
[02:00] <ryanakca> Why would ubuntu-server need alsa-base and alsa-utils?
[02:00] <thinh> i dont have any problem with beryl but heard compiz fusion is the shit
[02:00] <clearzen>  thinh: I still can drop to a teminal with alt+ctrl f1 and come back in compiz though
[02:00] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: What's that iwlist command to list networks - you using that or network manager?
[02:01] <dystopianray> CountX: this page seems to imply that bf1942 works with wine http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=1370
[02:01] <clearzen>  thinh: I have to switch to metacity first
[02:01] <unagi> so then i dont understand countx because if you run 3ds max then you have windows yes?
[02:01] <sp1nter> whenever  i goto terminal in feisty its all warped and the font is huge but my resolution is fine otherwise any ideas?
[02:01] <fbc> dystopianray, it runs with gksu gparted. should I change it to sudo gparted?
[02:01] <CountX> unagi: no, i had a trial
[02:01] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: Tried both.  iwconfig
[02:01] <thinh> i think i can wait i talk to a few and they all said wait for it
[02:01] <clearzen>  thinh: cool
[02:01] <unagi> a trial of windows?
[02:01] <dystopianray> fbc: that should already have it running as root
[02:01] <CountX> unagi: yeah
[02:01] <dystopianray> fbc: what error messages are you getting?
[02:02] <thinh> any good guidelines getting to better on linux
[02:02] <unagi> i didnt know they had that
[02:02] <fbc> dystopianray, hmm.. standby.. let me repeat the process..
[02:02] <thinh> i finish the ubuntu official book
[02:02] <clearzen>  thinh: use the terminal as much as possible :)
[02:02] <CountX> unagi: yeah they have a 90 day trial thing
[02:02] <GISELA> hello
[02:02] <GISELA> hi
[02:02] <dystopianray> thinh: practice
[02:02] <|Hat-trick|> Read man pages, break your system and fix it
[02:02] <thinh> any ebooks  or web page to start
[02:02] <GISELA> questions
[02:02] <LiberCogito> thinh: break and fix it.
[02:02] <thinh> lol
[02:02] <unagi> figures....quicktime just crashed lol
[02:03] <GISELA> alguien habla espaol
[02:03] <n2diy> thinh: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[02:03] <thinh> i am doing shell scripting but it very simple
[02:03] <sp1nter> whenever  i goto terminal in feisty its all warped and the font is huge but my resolution is fine otherwise any ideas?
[02:03] <LiberCogito> thinh: install the restricted nvidia drivers, upgrade the kernel without removing them, and then fix your broken x server
[02:03] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: sudo iwconfig shows eth0 or eth1 connected?
[02:03] <unagi> well countx all i can say is you are in the wrong industry if you are cheap
[02:03] <clearzen> thinh: setup useful cron jobs. That was a good start for me at least
[02:03] <unagi> does anyone know what the name of the network util in mandriva is or if it is available for ubuntu or if there is one similar to that one for ubuntu?
[02:03] <thinh> i done the cron already
[02:03] <clearzen> thinh: Incremental backups and such
[02:04] <sp1nter> and it was fine under dapper
[02:04] <CountX> unagi: ...well if i could find windows xp for under 100$ i would buy it
[02:04] <clearzen> thinh: I guess it just depends what you want to do with it.
[02:04] <thinh> i just want a place to start
[02:04] <unagi> thats exactly my point.....you wont spring for a full license.....means you are cheap.......and im saying you are in the wrong industry to be cheap
[02:05] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: iwconfig lists the wifi net adapter (Im hard wired right now)  but the issue is that the supposively okay wifi card isn't picking up on networks
[02:05] <|Hat-trick|> wait till reactos becomes usable lol
[02:05] <fbc> dystopianray, It just says failed...
[02:05] <CountX> unagi: ok, as helpful as that is...
[02:05] <thinh> the thing is i am an ms access developer so i have some background
[02:05] <gnomefreak> thinh: read up on command line tools/commands/ect..
[02:05] <dystopianray> fbc: no other info?
[02:05] <unagi> ::shrug:: just giving you the bad news early so when you find out its true, it wont be such a shock
[02:05] <thinh> i am going shell scripting for linux right now
[02:05] <CountX> anyone think they can look over the terminal return for launching bf2142 and help me figure out why its crashing/
[02:05] <LiberCogito> thinh: Learn perl.  It's fun.
[02:05] <fbc> dystopianray, other that failed format as fat16, nope
[02:06] <n2diy> thinh: did you check out the link to the book I just sent you?
[02:06] <dystopianray> thinh: 'ms access' is the sort of thing they teach children in high school
[02:06] <armandocerna> nick_: you still there?
[02:06] <thinh> yeah just bookmark it
[02:06] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: Just a longshot, but restart dbus? :)
[02:06] <thinh> lol
[02:06] <affan> hi all. I installed beryl-manager but whenever i run it I lose the title-bar for all windows. Do you know how to fix it? thanks!
[02:06] <sp1nter> my terminal doesnt work
[02:06] <|Hat-trick|> kill pid 1 ``
[02:06] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: how?
[02:06] <gnomefreak> affan: better to ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:06] <thinh> yeah but i had to do alot of vba and htm and vbscripting to maintain the access part of it
[02:07] <LiberCogito> affan: Is window decorator selected?
[02:07] <ShackJack> affan: Wrong chat room, but you might check in beryl manager that you have the decorator installed ermerald or metacity.... but check out #beryl or upgrade to compiz-fusion...
[02:07] <clearzen> thinh: Do you know any perl?
[02:07] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
[02:07] <unagi> another thing CountX is that you might want to look into learning many packages not just one if you are planning on getting into the 3d industry
[02:07] <affan> LiberCogito: when i choose beryl as the window manager titlebar  goes away
[02:07] <unagi> you are sort of shooting yourself in the foot if you take to just one package
[02:07] <thinh> affan did you use automatix to install the graphics driver?
[02:07] <fbc> dystopianray, how would I do it manually? maybe I can see all the lowlevel messages there..
[02:07] <dystopianray> fbc: what filesystema re you trying to put on it?
[02:08] <affan> thinh: no i used adept
[02:08] <gnomefreak> thinh: why would you ask that?
[02:08] <LiberCogito> affan: yes, I get that. Is window decorator selected in the beryl settings manager?
[02:08] <fbc> dystopianray, fat16
[02:08] <gnomefreak> affan: join #ubuntu-effects
[02:08] <dystopianray> fbc: not fat32?
[02:08] <affan> LiberCogito: let me check
[02:08] <affan> gnomefreak: i am there
[02:08] <thinh> affan i had the same problem when i used to use automatix to install my nvidia drivers
[02:08] <gnomefreak> affan: ask in there
[02:08] <fbc> dystopianray, nope, my stereo won't recognize fat32, at least that's what the manual says.
[02:09] <dystopianray> fbc: mkdosfs -F 16 -v /dev/blah
[02:09] <CaptConfused> Hello, is there a better channel to ask about sound problems?  I've got an Audigy 5.1 w/ feisty
[02:09] <dystopianray> CaptConfused: what problema re you having?
[02:09] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a linux mint irc channel as I dont think its #linuxmint
[02:09] <dystopianray> fbc: run that command through sudo
[02:09] <thinh> affan if you have nvidia try use the restrict driver manager to install the graphics card, that fix beryl for me
[02:10] <LiberCogito> Paddy_Eire: Don't think so...but isn't Mint just Ubuntu with a specific theme?
[02:10] <ShackJack> !sound | CaptConfused, or try the #alsa channel :)
[02:10] <ubotu> CaptConfused, or try the #alsa channel :): If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:10] <Paddy_EIRE> LiberCogito, kinda
[02:10] <fbc> dystopianray, Yeah, I figured that much out pretty quick.
[02:10] <fbc> dystopianray, I worked.
[02:10] <Paddy_EIRE> LiberCogito, although I dont think ppl will support it on this channel
[02:10] <fbc> dystopianray, It worked.
[02:10] <thinh> perl isnt that a language for parsing?
[02:10] <dystopianray> fbc: i guess gparted has some sort of problem then
[02:10] <dystopianray> thinh: you can do almost anything in it
[02:10] <affan> thinh: what do you mean by restrict driver manager? i selected nvidia-glx.
[02:10] <kkathman> ShackJack:  man yer stayin busy today :)
[02:11] <LiberCogito> Paddy_Eire: Its the same under the hood, just different paint...I don't really see why they wouldn't
[02:11] <Paddy_EIRE> LiberCogito, k, thx man
[02:11] <fbc> dystopianray, I used it on hard drives with no problem. Oh well..
[02:11] <dystopianray> does anyone know the name of that the linux livecd that is purposely insecure and is for educational purposes?
[02:11] <CaptConfused> bad sound quality, I just re-installed and I need to uncheck 'Digital output' control in Vol control switches tab.  Problem is, control is not there!?!  (It, was there on previous install)
[02:11] <CountX> alright, i tried to run bf2142 with wine and it started to run, then crashed and now my resolution is like 800x600
[02:11] <thinh> affan system > administration > restricted drivers manager
[02:11] <dystopianray> CountX: #winehq
[02:11] <LiberCogito> thinh: Perl is a high level programming language that can be used to bridge other languages, or just by itself.
[02:12] <ShackJack> CaptConfused: Try alsamixer in command line?
[02:12] <thinh> i c
[02:12] <thinh> sounds really cool
[02:12] <affan> thinh: do you know how i would do that in KDE?
[02:12] <ShackJack> thinh: sudo restricted-manager
[02:12] <sp1nter__> anyone know howto fix the font in terminal
[02:12] <ShackJack> affan: err... ^^^
[02:13] <uruviel> I have perhaps an unrelated question. I'm somewhat new to networking, but I installed ntop on my ubuntu box, and now I see _a lot_ of request with no connected users to the high port numbers (5000 - 6000) under the caption "TCP/UDP Traffic Port Distribution".

[02:13] <thinh> hmm affan not sure i use gnome dont know if there something like that for kde
[02:13] <Roey> LiberCogito:  are you kidding?   Perl is digital vomit.
[02:13] <gnomefreak> sp1nter__: gnome-terminal?
[02:13] <Roey> LiberCogito:  But it's irrelevant these days; Python's taking over
[02:13] <gnomefreak> Roey: please read what i said to LiberCogito and do that as well
[02:13] <Roey> (thankfully so)
[02:13] <sp1nter__> gnomefreak: no
[02:13] <thinh> what about xml or python?
[02:13] <bruenig> perl, python, all the same
[02:13] <gnomefreak> sp1nter__: what terminal?

[02:14] <gnomefreak> bruenig: #ubuntu-offtopic please
[02:14] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ah, my bad, sorry
[02:14] <uruviel> And that traffic is not supposed to be there, I mean ... it's not comming from my local network and those ports are closed for the outside. Anyone have an idea?
[02:14] <CaptConfused> Just opened alsamixer under terminal, but don't see a control for digital out
[02:14] <CountX> there is no action in #winehq...
[02:14] <gnomefreak> CaptConfused: scroll to the right
[02:14] <CountX> its dead in there
[02:14] <ShackJack> CaptConfused: left/right arrows scroll through controls...
[02:14] <gnomefreak> CaptConfused: iirc its one of last options
[02:14] <eboyjr> When I go to add another account in Gaim, you get to choose between AIM, Yahoo!, MSN, w/e. But, what is SIMPLE? Is there a webpage on that also?
[02:14] <thinh> i am interested in web service what language should i get good in to work with web services

[02:17] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ok
[02:17] <Roey> gnomefreak:  thanks
[02:17] <rokra> Hello
[02:17] <ShackJack> !hi | rokra
[02:17] <ubotu> rokra: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:17] <Roey> gnomefreak:  Well, first off, I'm trying to get my sound to work.
[02:18] <thinh> i try to copy a 20g file from a virtual box image and it keep stopping at 4g
[02:18] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, what u mean which?
[02:18] <gnomefreak> sp1nter__: that is possible but than i would have to say you have a serious issue since tty uses its own font. ther eis a config file for it but i cant remember where and its not named like you would think.
[02:18] <dystopianray> thinh: what filesystem are you putting it onto?
[02:18] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, the type?
[02:18] <thinh> vfat32
[02:18] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: What cache - browser cache, package cache, etc?
[02:18] <dystopianray> thinh: fat32 only supports 4GB files
[02:18] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I have this on-board via82cxx controller (I manuall ran modprobe via82cxx)
[02:18] <gnomefreak> Roey: im no sound guy but there is a script to give you all output you need for a bug report.
[02:18] <dystopianray> thinh: you need to split the file up or use a different filesystem
[02:18] <Roey> gnomefreak:  thanks.
[02:18] <crimsun> um...
[02:18] <gnomefreak> !sound | Roey
[02:18] <ubotu> Roey: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:18] <thinh> ext3 support bigger file
[02:18] <Roey> gnomefreak:  How about nvidia, ar eyou down with that?
[02:19] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, just temporary files , cookies,..
[02:19] <crimsun> via82xx is the OSS/Free driver, not the ALSA driver.
[02:19] <rokra> I m searching if there is a software to manage multiple workstation ? installation packages, reinstall...
[02:19] <thinh> its on my external usb drive
[02:19] <gnomefreak> i can do nvidia issues :)
[02:19] <Roey> woohoo!
[02:19] <gnomefreak> Roey: btw crimsun is our sound guy
[02:19] <dystopianray> thinh: you can't have files >4GB on fat32
[02:19] <thinh> i c
[02:19] <clearzen> thinh: you should be able to pipe the pieces through cat and put them back together. In thoery.
[02:19] <crimsun> so obviously if you load the OSS/Free driver without using the oss alsa-lib plugin, you're not going to have much luck...
[02:19] <dystopianray> thinh: maybe use ntfs
[02:19] <Roey> crimsun:  it says snd-via82xx, and hi btw :)
[02:19] <Roey> crimsun:  loooooong time no see :)
[02:19] <Roey> crimsun:  one sec
[02:19] <crimsun> Roey: via82xx != snd-via82xx
[02:19] <thinh> i c
[02:19] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: Using Firefox, just Tools -> Clear private data.... and sudo aptitude autoclean for packages
[02:19] <gnomefreak> Roey: have you every installed the nvidia drivers from nvidia.com?
[02:20] <Roey> crimsun:  what'st he kernel module for via then?
[02:20] <thinh> i heard there is some issue with ext3 file because of permissions
[02:20] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, ok thx
[02:20] <Horror|Sleep> anyone got a rough idea why sound recorder will not pic up any audio in i try and use?
[02:20] <crimsun> Roey: the one you just mentioned
[02:20] <_tcc> Wow. Feisty Fawn is probably the most retarded thing I've ever seen.
[02:20] <crimsun> Roey: (snd-via82xx if it's a Via mainboard that implements AC'97)
[02:20] <dystopianray> Horror|Sleep: misconfiguration of your soundcard
[02:20] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: there's also a /tmp directory but you gotta be root to clean that :)
[02:20] <dystopianray> _tcc: in what way?
[02:21] <thinh> the thing i dont have any windows machine so formating my external hd as a ntfs is just strange lol
[02:21] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, mzz ok
[02:21] <dystopianray> thinh: ntfsprogs can do it
[02:21] <Roey> gnomefreak:  well I ran apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-lowlatency as well as nvidia-glx.  It works, but... for some reason, upon bootup, /lib/modules/.../nvidia.ko gets deleted and I have to apt-get install --reinstall the restricted modules and then modprobe nvidia before I can startx.
[02:21] <_tcc> Randomly I am unable to "modify the system configuration." Restricted drivers. System restarts.
[02:21] <Roey> crimsun:  well I do that.
[02:21] <diambadieeeeeeee> slt
[02:21] <dystopianray> thinh: what is the purpose of the hdd? to exchange fiels with other operating systems?
[02:21] <Horror|Sleep> dystopianray: any tips for how it should be configured, currently in oss i think
[02:21] <dystopianray> thinh: if you're only using it on linux machines you can use ext2
[02:21] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a handy way I can backup my files to some server or something as I have no media to copy to and my external hdd is no longer in operation
[02:21] <clearzen> thinh: use ext3 then. Is there a reason you can't?
[02:21] <Roey> crimsun:  and amarok and mpg123 show that they're playing--amarok's frequency analyzer is humming away--but I don't hear no sound.
[02:22] <gnomefreak> Roey: well that is why i asked if you ever used the nvidia drivers from nvidia (using them makes ubuntu lose that file)
[02:22] <Shyam> hi guys, any idea how to install theme with.bz2 package?
[02:22] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ahhhhh
[02:22] <dystopianray> Horror|Sleep: alsamixer -V capture
[02:22] <thinh> nope just heard that there is problem when you hook it into a different system you might get some permissions problems
[02:22] <eboyjr> When I go to add another account in Gaim, you get to choose between AIM, Yahoo!, MSN, w/e. But, what is SIMPLE? Is there a webpage on that also?
[02:22] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I installed hte proprietary ones, yes.
[02:22] <crimsun> Roey: "don't hear no", eh?  Right.  Download and run http://www.trilug.org/~crimsun/alsa-info.sh
[02:22] <dystopianray> Horror|Sleep: make sure the capture source is set as the microphone and that it's volume is all the way up
[02:22] <ShackJack> Shyam: Just open themes in Prefs and drag onto it...
[02:22] <gnomefreak> Roey: you need to remove them all
[02:22] <LiberCogito> Issue with wireless... wireless is detected, on and listed in network manager,  however it is not finding any wireless networks.  If I plug in another USB adapter, it can find the networks, but not connect to them.
[02:22] <thinh> i have desktop and laptop both linux with virtualbox
[02:22] <_tcc> Where the fuck did the network manager applet go?
[02:22] <dystopianray> Horror|Sleep: but it depends on your soundcard as to exactly to set it as
[02:22] <_tcc> That's so moronic.
[02:22] <dystopianray> _tcc: what did you do to it?
[02:22] <ShackJack> Shyam: Package might have tars in it, if so extract then drag tars on theme mgr...
[02:22] <dystopianray> !ohmy | _tcc
[02:22] <ubotu> _tcc: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:22] <Horror|Sleep> thanks dystopian, will try that when i boot back in, been having issues with wine too, but we wont bring those issues here
[02:23] <thinh> ext hd is just backing up works and way to transfer file between the systems
[02:23] <clearzen> thinh: I haven't had problems yet, but you can always change ownership if you need to
[02:23] <Shyam> ShackJack, so i have to unzip or what?
[02:23] <Roey> crimsun:  Daniel, you are too cool:  http://pastebin.ca/637559
[02:23] <thinh> using gparted is fine right?
[02:23] <gnomefreak> Roey: they build thier own restricted modules package and the ubuntu one needs to be used. ther eis an uninstall option if you used the .run file from nvidia if you used the envy thing than i dont know what to tell you
[02:23] <_tcc> Not allowed to access the system configuration.
[02:23] <_tcc> Wow.
[02:23] <ShackJack> Shyam: It's like I said above.... You cna double click to see if tars are in it... If so, yes other wise just drag on theme mgr...
[02:23] <_tcc> Wow.
[02:23] <doom_ster> hello everyone
[02:23] <dystopianray> thinh: it should be
[02:24] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, there a lot of files in var/log, maps , files, gz files,... there cache files to?
[02:24] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I've tried envy, it kept failing duringthe builds.
[02:24] <crimsun> Roey: ok, so which audio device do you actually want to use?
[02:24] <Roey> gnomefreak:  but you say to download the ones from their web site?
[02:24] <Roey> crimsun:  how many do I have??
[02:24] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: Nope... just logs, etc...
[02:24] <dystopianray> _tcc: what are you trying to configure?
[02:24] <gnomefreak> Roey: no dont use them
[02:24] <doom_ster> anyone knows where system holds the position of basic folders like /home ?
[02:24] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, ok
[02:24] <dystopianray> _tcc: you need to be much more specific and verbose if you are going to recieve any help
[02:24] <crimsun> Roey: 2.  The first one, AV710, is superior to the second one, V8237.
[02:24] <Roey> gnomefreak:  so I should apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-lowlatency && apt-get install nvidia-glx ?
[02:24] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, i just try to clean up my disk a bit
[02:24] <thinh> for permission on the ext hd just give other read write execute right?
[02:24] <Roey> crimsun:  how do I configure the av710 then?
[02:24] <_tcc> dystopianray, I'm trying to enable restricted ATi drivers. And then for some reason I cannot access the composite manager. Then after that the network manager applet does not show after restart.
[02:24] <gnomefreak> Roey: you need to remove all files that the drivers from either envy or nvidia made
[02:25] <gnomefreak> Roey: no that wont help
[02:25] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ok
[02:25] <Roey> gnomefreak:  (how would I do it?)
[02:25] <gnomefreak> Roey: i havent found a sure fire way yet
[02:25] <Roey> ah
[02:25] <dystopianray> _tcc: press alt+f2 and run nm-applet manually
[02:25] <Paddy_EIRE> could anyone tell me how I could send files from my laptop to my tower system, I have a 2 router configuration outer 1 connects to the net and supplies that to router 2 which is a wireless router with 4 ethernet ports 1 of which supplies my tower system with the net
[02:25] <clearzen> thinh: 0755 should be fine
[02:25] <gnomefreak> Roey: you can try find nvidia
[02:25] <Roey> gnomefreak:  (I'm at a loss for how to do things the ubuntu way ;)
[02:25] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: :)  You can remove old kernels and deb orphan can help you get rid of some stuff... also you can nuke foreign language ttf- packages :)
[02:25] <crimsun> Roey: well, are your headphones/speakers plugged into its output jacks?
[02:25] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ok
[02:25] <doom_ster> i have my system installed on 1 partition, and i wanna separate its /home folder to another partition
[02:25] <Roey> crimsun:  I have my stereo receiver plugged directly into my digital audio out jack
[02:25] <doom_ster> can this be done
[02:25] <doom_ster> ?
[02:25] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: how does your laptop connect to the network? over wireless?
[02:25] <crimsun> Roey: on which card?
[02:26] <Roey> crimsun:  on my on-board
[02:26] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, yes
[02:26] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak: I've looked and there's not a control there? just mixers for each source.
[02:26] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, k ty
[02:26] <Roey> crimsun:  and I only have one sound card
[02:26] <gnomefreak> Roey: and remove everything that looks like it shouldnt be there (i would remove everything and start fresh) since there isnt a sure way to do it
[02:26] <crimsun> Roey: the Via (V8237)?
[02:26] <Roey> crimsun:  (the onboard one, that is)
[02:26] <Roey> crimsun:  right
[02:26] <crimsun> Roey: um, you need to plug it into the other one...
[02:26] <Roey> gnomefreak:  ok.  But what would you install, then?
[02:26] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: ok, then both machines should be on the same subnet, you can use nfs, smb or ssh (and others) to transfer files
[02:26] <gnomefreak> CaptConfused: maybe it depends on the card you use?
[02:26] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, although I have spare ethernet ports on the wireless router if that speeds the process
[02:26] <r0b-> nix
[02:26] <Roey> crimsun:  it was working fine the moment before I installed Kubuntu.
[02:26] <r0b-> nixternal
[02:26] <ShackJack> doom_ster: Yep - check out http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[02:26] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: it shouldn't matter
[02:26] <gnomefreak> Roey: use the repos to install the right packages
[02:27] <Roey> crimsun:  do you want to see my asound state configuration for the previous installation?
[02:27] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: both machines are on the same subnet, right?
[02:27] <crimsun> Roey: no
[02:27] <doom_ster> ty ShackJack
[02:27] <crimsun> Roey: did you create an asoundrc?
[02:27] <Roey> gnomefreak:  oof, I don't know which packags you're referring to.  I have a geforce4 ti4200
[02:27] <Roey> crimsun:  for the previous system yes
[02:27] <_`XeOn_> hello any1 of u knows whats the command to unzip .zip files using unzip for ubuntu?
[02:27] <dystopianray> _`XeOn_: unzip blah.zip
[02:27] <jmchaffie> Ok, I went ahead and tried the wiki, and ubuntu instructions BOTH again. Still can't play back DVD entirely. All I get is warning, rating, then it kicks out.
[02:27] <_`XeOn_> dats all?
[02:27] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, ok, the laptop is currently running xp and ubuntu dual boot Im in win now as ubuntu is borked (well gnome is) and the tower runs xp and ubuntu
[02:28] <dystopianray> jmspeex: sounds like a dodgy dvd
[02:28] <_`XeOn_> no options etc?
[02:28] <gnomefreak> Roey: if on feisty you want nvidia-glx
[02:28] <crimsun> Roey: is it active on your current system?  (Doesn't seem so.)
[02:28] <dystopianray> jmchaffie: sorry that was meant for you
[02:28] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak: haven't changed any hardware at all, just reinstalled feisty over feisty with /home on separate partition.  maybe bad config file hanging around.  I tried to install oss v4 and broke prior install
[02:28] <dystopianray> jmchaffie: try another dvd
[02:28] <fakenick> Whatever happened to Alacarte Menu Editor?  Is there something similar for Feisty Fawn?
[02:28] <gnomefreak> Roey: your best working on one issue at a time
[02:28] <jmchaffie> ok
[02:28] <clearzen> jmchaffie: do you have libdvdcss2 installed?
[02:28] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, I know very little on networking how to find subnet
[02:28] <djdanx> can anyone tell me how to run into windows in linux ? O_o
[02:28] <Roey> gnomefreak:  so that's what I installed.
[02:28] <gnomefreak> CaptConfused: can you list all options you see
[02:28] <Roey> gnomefreak:  via apt-get.
[02:28] <Roey> crimsun:  hmm, I don't thik so.
[02:28] <Roey> lemme see.
[02:28] <dystopianray> djdanx: you want to run windows in a vm?
[02:29] <freebooter> http://erusan.googlepages.com/ubuntuhowto.html
[02:29] <djdanx> yea
[02:29] <gnomefreak> Roey: but envy tried to build the modules and that is what is left behind screwing you up
[02:29] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: well I'll assume they are, what do you want to use? nfs, smb or something else?
[02:29] <jmchaffie> clearzen: yes... done it about 4 times now following various directions.. no go.
[02:29] <freebooter> excellent how to there for installing codecs
[02:29] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I don't know anymore :(
[02:29] <dystopianray> jmchaffie: try another dvd, it sounds like the one you are using is faulty
[02:29] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, which is easiest, :)
[02:29] <clearzen> jmchaffie: Have you tried to rip the dvd to your computer. Will it let you do that?
[02:29] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: probably ssh
[02:29] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I install the restricted-modules, I install nvidia-glx, and yet my system keeps removing the nvidia.ko on me.
[02:29] <idgoon> what is the latest version of ubuntu?
[02:29] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, u perhaps know some more about deamon logs lol :D i know what they are but i just saw something : dhcprequest on eth0 to xxx.xxx.x.xxx port xx  , so this means he refresh my ethernet?
[02:29] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, OK
[02:29] <Roey> idgoon:  7.04
[02:29] <Shyam> ShackJack: i have error, format invalid
[02:29] <dystopianray> idgoon: fiesty, 7.04
[02:29] <gnomefreak> idgoon: 7.04
[02:29] <idgoon> thanks
[02:29] <exyan> gentoo
[02:30] <Roey> :)
[02:30] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: but you will need to enter a password each time you transfer files
[02:30] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, that sounds good
[02:30] <ShackJack> Shyam: When dragging on themes - then extract first...
[02:30] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: install openssh-server on both machines
[02:30] <djdanx> i have dualboot, ubuntu and xp, so is it possible to run to xp under ubuntu ?
[02:30] <ShackJack> Shyam: Then drag the extracted tars on theme mgr...
[02:30] <jmchaffie> clearzen: no haven't tried that... am trying a different dvd right now... hold on...
[02:30] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[02:30] <Roey> crimsun:  so now that I've copied my asound.conf file to /etc (from my previous sytem's /etc), how do I re-initialize my sound drivers short of rebooting?
[02:30] <fouressence> Hi!  Quick question: is there a standard program/command in Linux that displays current HDD activity?  Something like top?
[02:30] <gnomefreak> Roey: you have left over parts from envy and other than find nvidia and remove what you see (or what you can without loosing X than start over) ther eis no other way really
[02:30] <crimsun> Roey: you don't need to reinit.  Just restart the alsa app(s).
[02:30] <ShackJack> Ifreeze: Sorry - networking not really my thang...
[02:30] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: then you can open a terminal and type 'scp machine1:~/music ./' and similar to copy files to and from machines
[02:30] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I don't know what there is.
[02:31] <Shyam> ShackJack: i extracted but still with same errors, i even try to install with archived dir.
[02:31] <Paddy_EIRE> nice one
[02:31] <Ifreeze> ShackJack, np :)
[02:31] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I mean, I don't see what to do anymore.
[02:31] <crimsun> Roey: (which may entail you logging out of KDE/GNOME/whatever and back in)
[02:31] <Roey> crimsun:  ahh.
[02:31] <clearzen> !restricted | jmchaffie    have you tried the instructions on those links?
[02:31] <ubotu> jmchaffie    have you tried the instructions on those links?: 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
[02:31] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak:  on gui volume control 'switches' tab I see one check box for 'Tone'.
[02:31] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: i think gnome's file manager has the ability to browse files over ssh, but somebody else can tell you that for sure
[02:31] <ShackJack> Shyam: You should have tar files with stuff in them - drag onto themes -- not extracted files...
[02:32] <gnomefreak> CaptConfused: your running alsamixer in terminal and that is all you see?
[02:32] <clearzen> dystopianray: Paddy_EIRE: it's called sshfs
[02:32] <jmchaffie> clearzen: yes I have... and it appears my new i-robot DVD must have something on it that won't let me playback on my computer. Two of my other DVDs work fine. :( CRAP! I just got this one too.
[02:32] <Shyam> ShackJack: the thing is there aint't tar files contents
[02:32] <mikebot> Anyone here know how to get flash working in Opera?
[02:32] <eetfunk> i just uninstalled apache and removed /etc/apache2, however, when i reinstall it, it doesnt install the config files anymore.  what's the trick?
[02:32] <dystopianray> clearzen: gnome should have an ssh browsing feature, just like konqueror, don't need sshfs
[02:32] <clearzen> jmchaffie: damn drm :(
[02:32] <dystopianray> eetfunk: try aptitude purge apache2, then reinstall
[02:32] <Paddy_EIRE> clearzen, dystopianray so I "sudo aptitude install sshfs" on both comps
[02:33] <ShackJack> mikebot: I got mine my making a symlink from the Opera plugins thing to the flash
[02:33] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: no
[02:33] <eetfunk> dystopianray: thanks
[02:33] <Paddy_EIRE> oh, ok
[02:33] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: install openssh-server
[02:33] <mikebot> ShackJack: I'm not sure I understand.. Can you explain?
[02:33] <gnomefreak> !opera | mikebot
[02:33] <ubotu> mikebot: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[02:33] <clearzen> Paddy_EIRE: yeah, it will put a mount on your computer that accesses and updates the contents of the remote computer.
[02:33] <Andre23cm> hi
[02:34] <gnomefreak> mikebot: go to that link it shoudl show you pretty much same as java
[02:34] <eetfunk> dystopianray: it didnt work.  config files still not there
[02:34] <ShackJack> You make symbolic pointer link from Opera (like an "alias") to Firefox plugin subdir.... I forgot directories....
[02:34] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: you don't need sshfs, but you might find it useful later
[02:34] <idgoon> what is alternate desktop cD
[02:34] <clearzen> Paddy_EIRE:http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/28/how-to-mount-a-remote-ssh-filesystem-using-sshfs/
[02:34] <idgoon> I am confused
[02:34] <mikebot> gnomefreak: Thanks.
[02:34] <dystopianray> eetfunk: hrrm, there may be multiple apache related packages that need to be purged for it to work
[02:34] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: for now just install openssh-server
[02:34] <dissection> How do I write something in quotes that has the characters ` and '? I mean for example if I want to quote like, print 'This is a test message with the ` and ' characters';
[02:34] <zerokill88> i know this sounds insecure, but how do i get ubuntu to load boot up without a user, just go diretly into ubuntu?
[02:34] <Paddy_EIRE> alright
[02:35] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, my routers are a hassle apparently
[02:35] <dystopianray> dissection: should be able to escape special characters with \
[02:35] <ShackJack> zerokill88: Go to users and groups and its an option there...
[02:35] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: should not be
[02:35] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[02:35] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: if both machines are connecting through the same router, they'll be on the same subnet
[02:35] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: at least, they should be
[02:35] <Paddy_EIRE> ah I see
[02:35] <dissection> dystopianray: I tried that but the \ also shows up in output
[02:36] <exyan> how do u restore beryl-manager settings to default, coz I accidently changed the renderer from nvidia to aiglx ;/
[02:36] <dystopianray> dissection: what exactly are you doing?
[02:36] <ShackJack> zerokill88: Erp.... Go to Login Windows Prefs under Admin...
[02:36] <Justi1> what flags should the ubuntu partition have enabled?
[02:36] <dissection> dystopianray: Uhm, just making my irssi script display ascii art on startup.
[02:36] <dystopianray> dissection: oh, i don't know how irssi's escaping works
[02:37] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: are they installed yet?
[02:37] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: it's only a tiny package
[02:37] <ShackJack> exyan: Check out #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[02:37] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, booting the tower into buntu
[02:37] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak:  I scrolled by the control for analog/digital out three or four time and did not see it -duh!  How do I effect the control?
[02:37] <DimitrisC> Earlier today I almost repartinioned my hd and install xp after about 1 year of using just linux. Thank god I managed to get WoW working in ubuntu and there is no such need anymore :-)
[02:37] <LiberCogito> Wifi issues, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31738/
[02:37] <jussi_> how do i empty the apt cache?
[02:38] <dissection> dystopianray: Okay, so "escaping" is what I need to look up?
[02:38] <dystopianray> DimitrisC: WoW has worked in wine for a while now
[02:38] <dystopianray> dissection: most likely
[02:38] <dissection> Okay :)
[02:38] <DimitrisC> dystopianray: I have an ati card and I wasn't so sure it would work! :-)
[02:38] <dystopianray> DimitrisC: ah well you'd probably get twice the performance in windows, but if your'e happy that is good
[02:38] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak: fixed it
[02:39] <williammanda_>  how do you set xine as the default dvd player instead of totem?
[02:39] <LiberCogito> dystopianray: Not really, I hate native speed and better with WOW on Wine
[02:39] <LiberCogito> dystopianray: *have, rather
[02:39] <Justi1> What should I do if it says "Error loading operating system" when I boot up?
[02:40] <Parisi_work> Hmm
[02:40] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak: you have to check off the 'Analog Digital' check box in 'edit preferences' before it will appear as a control under the 'switches' tab
[02:40] <deathnall>  hi all. heres a weird question. does anyone remember the film hackers? if so do u remember "hack the planet"? i want to know if theres such things as this underground tv on linux somewhere?
[02:40] <DimitrisC> dystopianray: Mine works pretty well in 1280x800 in linux. Of course I have no measure for comparison :)
[02:40] <kitche> Justi1: umm you forgot to install a bootloader most likely
[02:40] <mikebot> I'm trying to extract a tar.gz, and it says I do not have the right permissions... Whast is the command for extracting?
[02:40] <CaptConfused> gnomefreak:  Thanks for your help!!
[02:40] <deathnall> Hack the planet
[02:40] <kitche> mikebot: tar -xvf <file>.tar.gz
[02:40] <Justi1> kitche: ubuntu has been working until i shrunk the partition
[02:40] <jussi_> How do i clear the apt cache??!
[02:41] <mikebot> kitche: Where do I put where I want it to extract?
[02:41] <kitche> mikebot: but you need to be in a folder that your user can write to or else you would have to use sudo
[02:41] <deathnall> ok so guys, does anyone know if theres such things like hack the planet on the net somewhere?
[02:41] <mikebot> kitche: Or is it earier to just move it to that folder first?
[02:41] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, gota reboot this laptop into ubuntu and use the kde wm as gnome is borked because of something I did with compiz-fusion
[02:41] <kitche> mikebot: -C <place to extract>

[02:41] <ubotu> deathnall: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:41] <Parisi_work> Does anyone know if Ubuntu 7.01 supports WPA-TKIP by default ?
[02:41] <deathnall> ahh thnx
[02:41] <deathnall> sorry
[02:42] <deathnall> i ddint know
[02:42] <dystopianray> Parisi_work: 7.04 does yes
[02:42] <n2diy> deathnall: try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:42] <dystopianray> Parisi_work: so did earlier releases, but 7.04 is the easiest to setup
[02:42] <deathnall> hello?
[02:42] <Pelo> deathnall, ?
[02:43] <n2diy> deathnall: try in /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:43] <breanna_> Anyone know where to download Landscape?
[02:43] <deathnall> hi
[02:43] <deathnall> sorry
[02:43] <Justi1> what flags should my ubuntu partition and linux-swap partitions have enabled?
[02:43] <dystopianray> Justi1: flags?
[02:43] <dystopianray> Justi1: fstab options?
[02:43] <Pelo> breanna_, start by checking in synaptic , otherwise google
[02:43] <negatifzeo> Whenever I switxh from a window; whenever a window is inactive, I  get ugly blocks around it. Can anyone help me resolve this?
[02:44] <LiberCogito> My wireless connection is setup, but will not detect or connect to wireless networks.  Output of iwconfig here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31738/  can anyone provide any input on this issue please?
[02:44] <mikebot> What';s the command for copy?
[02:44] <Justi1> dystopianray: in gparted, i can set flags, like 'boot'
[02:44] <dystopianray> mikebot: cp
[02:44] <mikebot> dystopianray: Thanks.
[02:44] <kitche> Justi1: most likely if you shrunk the partitoin you probably messed up some of the superblocks
[02:44] <zerokill88> shackjack when you configure it to automatically login someone, if you boot up the system it logs them in automatically completely
[02:44] <Pelo> negatifzeo,  are you running  the desktop effects ?
[02:44] <dystopianray> Justi1: don't need to set anything
[02:44] <n2diy> mikebot: cp
[02:44] <negatifzeo> Pelo: Yes
[02:44] <ShackJack> zerokill88: Yep...
[02:44] <dystopianray> Justi1: just create the partitions, put a filesystem on and continue
[02:44] <zerokill88> shackjack alright kool, thanks for the info
[02:44] <deathnall> noones on the off topic room
[02:44] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[02:44] <Pelo> negatifzeo,  my guess is taht is the problem ask in #ubuntu-effects for a solution, they are better equiped to help you
[02:45] <ash__> Sooo... I just removed the driver for my ATI card... By going to Sytem--->Admin---Restricted Drivers.... and now GDM wont start....
[02:45] <Justi1> kitche: i don't know what those are, is there any way to fix it?
[02:45] <breanna_> Pelo: Have... it's too new. (see Ubuntu's main page)

[02:45] <ash__> Is there any way to reset the gui configs and everything to when I installed the system originally?
[02:45] <n2diy> deathnall: there are 137 users there.
[02:45] <Pelo> breanna_,  google then,  get a deb file or the source and compile
[02:45] <eboyjr> I have a very important file on my Ubuntu desktop, but i NEED copies of it on my Window's Desktop in VirtualBox. How can I do this? I really need help!
[02:45] <Pelo> ash__, a clean install , takes all of 30 minutes
[02:46] <ash__> eboyjr email?
[02:46] <exyan> is there a way to restore beryl-manager default settings? I messed with the renderers and therefore X hangs whenever I start beryl-manager
[02:46] <dystopianray> eboyjr: you should be able to mount the virtualbox image with ntfs-3g and copy the file over
[02:46] <breanna_> Pelo: I would if I could find the fucking source...
[02:46] <kitche> Justi1: sure you can fsck the drive to see if there is any errors on it
[02:46] <bazookatooth> go
[02:46] <DtG> is buntu good now?
[02:46] <ShackJack> ash__: Nuke .gconf .gonf2 dirs in .home?
[02:46] <deathnall> ahh yes i c now
[02:46] <ShackJack> DtG: Yep, very good...
[02:46] <deathnall> thnx very much for your help
[02:46] <ash__> Pelo I dont want to lose all my files on the drive
[02:46] <DtG> live cd wise
[02:46] <deathnall> HACK THE PLANET!
[02:46] <Justi1> kitche: do I fsck it from gparted?
[02:46] <bazookatooth> ok, i ccan't get my touchpad to allow for two-finger scroll.... i really  want that back
[02:46] <Pelo> ash__,  make a seperate partition for /home , you'll never have to backup again
[02:47] <dystopianray> DtG: what sort of 'good' do you require?
[02:47] <DtG> low ram
[02:47] <DtG> and be able to watch porn
[02:47] <ash__> ShackJack but then will that reset all the gui settings to default
[02:47] <DtG> i need to figure out whats fucking my internet
[02:47] <DtG> over
[02:47] <Ashman> Funk :(
[02:47] <Ashman> kk
[02:47] <Ashman> init 6
[02:47] <DtG> i think i'm going to reinstall
[02:47] <Ashman> well... that didnt work.
[02:47] <kitche> Justi1: umm does it have a fsck feature or are you doing something else with gparted?
[02:47] <Pelo> DtG,  try xubuntu, it's low resource
[02:47] <simond> hi; I'm trying to specify an alternate ubuntu archive mirror (my local web server) when doing the install
[02:47] <kitche> !language | DtG
[02:47] <ubotu> DtG: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:47] <exyan> so noone using beryl Oo?
[02:48] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, openssh-server is now installed on both comps..
[02:48] <simond> when I input the data and hit continue, instead of querying my local webserver, it phones home to canincal.com and throws up an error about files missing on my web server
[02:48] <Pelo> exyan,  ask in #beryl
[02:48] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: one of the machines is kde?
[02:48] <ShackJack> ash__: Yep... actually go to your home folder in terminal and rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[02:48] <simond> ... but it never hits my webserver
[02:48] <Justi1> kitche: i dont know what fsck is
[02:48] <exyan> Pelo: been there, done that ^^
[02:48] <DtG> i'd doubt there's anyone under 13 in this channel.
[02:48] <DtG> pricks.
[02:48] <DtG> anyways
[02:48] <kitche> !fsck | Justi1
[02:48] <ubotu> Justi1: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[02:48] <Pelo> DtG,  still a family friendly channel
[02:48] <simond> waht would cause that? am I only allowed to install from authoritative repositories?
[02:49] <eugman> Is there anything I can do to make my computer a little better at editing a 1.9 gig image?
[02:49] <dissection> What is the command to view the name of my video card, in the terminal?
[02:49] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, the laptop is because gnome gives a fatal error then crashes back to gdm each time where as kde works but I have to connect via ethernet to the same router as the tower
[02:49] <eboyjr> dystopianray: How can I do that? What is the usage? I want to mount "/root/.vboxthing/vdi/asdsdsd.vdi" to "/vwin"
[02:49] <nickrud> eugman, lots of ram & swap
[02:49] <williammanda_>  how do you set xine as the default dvd player instead of totem?
[02:49] <Pelo> simond,  no you can make your own,  check in the ubuntu wiki and the forum there is bound to be an answer there
[02:49] <nickrud> eugman, more ram than swap
[02:49] <simond> Pelo: it all seems to apply to pre-7.04
[02:49] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: on the kde machine open konqueror and go to 'fish://blah' replace blah witht eh hostname or IP address of the other machine
[02:49] <eugman> nickrud, actually the cpu is the bottleneck
[02:49] <Pelo> williammanda_,  menu > system > prefs> removable media thingy,  somewhere in there
[02:50] <eugman> nickrud, 2 gig of ram and 4 of swap so that's not an issue
[02:50] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, how to get this info
[02:50] <Pelo> simond,  what works on pre ... should work on the newer ones as well
[02:50] <eugman> I mean non physical changes, I'm using a laptop
[02:50] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: the other machine has a name
[02:50] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: that you assigned during install
[02:50] <nickrud> eugman, then I don't think you can do, except maybe cut into chunks ;)
[02:50] <nickrud> *anything
[02:51] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, the host name of the tower is ubuntu
[02:51] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: fish://ubuntu
[02:51] <eugman> nickrud, do you know if imagick can be told to crop an image so there is no transparent border?
[02:51] <LiberCogito> My wireless connection is setup, but will not detect or connect to wireless networks. Output of iwconfig here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31738/ can anyone provide any input on this issue please?
[02:51] <simond> Pelo: can you give me a hint of where to find something on using my own mirror? I've been searching for the last 1/2 hr, and can't find anything good
[02:51] <ZmaX> chi c'?
[02:52] <ZmaX> insomma... ho installato compiz fusion; ma quali sono i tasti?!
[02:52] <Pelo> simond,  let me have a quick look
[02:52] <ShackJack> dissection: You have ATI or Nvidia?
[02:52] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, could not connect to host ubuntu
[02:52] <nickrud> eugman, a crop is a crop, why would it leave a border? (uncertainty)
[02:52] <dissection> ShackJack: I have the onboard video
[02:52] <simond> I'm probably just using the wrong keywords
[02:53] <eugman> Nickrud, no I mean have it crop out the prexisting border
[02:53] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: on the other machine run 'ifconfig' and it'll show the 'inet addr', go to fish://x.x.x.x (whatever the number is)
[02:53] <ShackJack> dissection: glxinfo
[02:53] <bazookatooth> has anyone ever gotten two-finger scroll to work on their ubuntu laptop
[02:53] <ZmaX> I have installed Compiz Fusion; but how can I use it ?  What are the keys ?!
[02:53] <dystopianray> bazookatooth: you'll probably need to add a few synaptics config options for it in your xorg.conf
[02:53] <eboyjr> dystopianray: How can I do that? What is the usage? I want to mount "/root/.vboxthing/vdi/asdsdsd.vdi" to "/vwin"
[02:53] <ShackJack> dissection: More specifically, glxinfo | grep -i renderer
[02:53] <bazookatooth> dystopian, thank you
[02:53] <kitche> ZmaX: #ubuntu-effects can probbaly help you out with compiz-fusion more then here
[02:53] <dystopianray> eboyjr: what format is the image? is it a raw hdd image? does it have some sort of compression applied to it or something?
[02:54] <ZmaX> kitche, ok thanks
[02:54] <eboyjr> dystopianray: ntfs
[02:54] <eboyjr> dystopianray: Windwos
[02:54] <rockets> Restricted manager doesn't have an option for me to install the ATI driver
[02:54] <rockets> when i run it from a terminal with gksu it says could not find module fglrx
[02:54] <eboyjr> dystopianray: I mean Windblows
[02:54] <dystopianray> eboyjr: no, i'm talking about the virtualbox image, not the partition filesystem
[02:54] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, cool
[02:54] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: does it work?
[02:54] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, nice one, and this should work vise versa
[02:55] <Pelo> simond, I guess this would be it but with specifing the repos on a local server for an address  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Personal?action=show&redirect=LocalAptGetRepositoriesTrivial
[02:55] <ShackJack> rockets: sudo aptitude xorg-driver-fglrx
[02:55] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: that's right, usually you just type the hostname but your network doesn't seem to be setup for that
[02:55] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, so I can drag and drop in Konquror
[02:55] <Justi1> kitche: in gparted, i ran the default 'check file system', and it ran ' e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda1 '. is this a sufficient check?
[02:55] <ShackJack> rockets: But then you have to change xorg.conf to use fglrx driver...
[02:55] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: gnome should have an equivalent, but I don't know what it is
[02:55] <rockets> ShackJack, i know but that wont configure my xorg for me
[02:55] <rockets> ShackJack, ive done that, ti doesnt work
[02:55] <kitche> Justi1: yeah
[02:55] <simond> Pelo: don't think that applies to an uninstalled system
[02:56] <ShackJack> rockets: You;ve changed driver from ati to fglrx? You have to be more specific "doesn't work"
[02:56] <kitche> Justi1: but you still need to reinstall grub most likely
[02:56] <Pelo> simond,  or this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMagazine/HowTo/LocalRepositoriesHowto?highlight=%28repositories%29
[02:56] <kitche> !grub | Justi1

[02:56] <ShackJack> rockets: (in xorg)
[02:56] <gar> How long does it take for a subdomain to be activated?
[02:56] <dystopianray> eboyjr: try this: mount -o loop,offset=32256 /root/.vboxthing/vdi/asdsdsd.vdi /vwin
[02:56] <rockets> shack, i change the driver in xorg.conf to fglrx and i still dont have 3d.
[02:56] <Pelo> simond,  I see what you want now I think
[02:56] <Pelo> !install | simond  try in here
[02:56] <ubotu> simond  try in here: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[02:56] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, cool man, if your hangin around for a while let me know I would like to pick your brain...but for now im doing this backup and then installing mint on the lappy
[02:56] <rockets> shack, but when ive done it with restricted manager in the past it worked fine, same computer
[02:56] <dystopianray> gardar:should be instantaeneous
[02:56] <gar> oh really
[02:56] <gar> on godaddy?
[02:56] <ShackJack> rockets: Use full name or no beep...
[02:56] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: yeah i probably will be
[02:56] <Paddy_EIRE> dystopianray, great stuff :D
[02:57] <rockets> ShackJack, sorry, mistake. theres somebody named shack
[02:57] <ShackJack> rockets: Regardless, that's not the issue...
[02:57] <rockets> ShackJack, im using tab completion
[02:57] <Shyam> i totally don't understand about theme. I downloaded a package ubuntu-vista.tar.gz. Then i go tot system > preferences > theme and click install theme then choose the package. Half way thru system prompt "the file format is invalid". Ca anyone guide me in this?
[02:57] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: yes, you don't need to wait for root/tld dns server records to be updated for subdomains
[02:57] <ShackJack> rockets: You can dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg if not confortable changing a line in xorg.conf...
[02:57] <dystopianray> Paddy_EIRE: sorry wrong person
[02:57] <dystopianray> gar: yes, you don't need to wait for root/tld dns server records to be updated for subdomains
[02:57] <eboyjr> dystopianray: mount: mount point /vwin does not exist
[02:57] <rockets> ShackJack, I'm prefectly comfortable, ive DONE IT. it doesnt work for me.
[02:57] <simond> Pelo: thanks
[02:57] <kitche> ShackJack: umm you can extract the theme and install it that way most likely
[02:57] <ShackJack> rockets: Sorry you're not being specifc "doesn't work"
[02:57] <dystopianray> gar: godaddy is hosting the authoratative dns server and so should add the subdomain straight away
[02:57] <dystopianray> eboyjr: obviously you need to create that directory
[02:58] <rockets> ShackJack, i change ati to fglrx and i get no 3d acceleration and fglrxinfo says cant find fglrx on screen:0
[02:58] <ShackJack> kitche: Wrong reply...
[02:58] <eboyjr> dystopianray: hah ya thanks i was doing that no
[02:58] <eboyjr> w
[02:58] <Pelo> Shyam,  occasionnaly those files you dl are repacked for with several bits in theme,  unpack it "once" first and see the content , those are probably the files you need to drag and drop
[02:58] <gar> dystopianray: I added a few hours ago - is there something I can check?
[02:58] <ShackJack> rockets: That's normal -- if you have video fglrx is running...
[02:58] <eboyjr> dystopianray: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[02:58] <madman91> hey guys
[02:58] <dystopianray> eboyjr: mount it with ntfs-3g
[02:58] <rockets> ShackJack, except ive gotten 3d accel to work on this pc in the past
[02:58] <Shyam> Pelo: u mean drag n drop in theme manager?
[02:58] <rockets> ShackJack, glxgears is SUPER SLOW
[02:59] <rockets> ShackJack, it has worked in the past, using restricted-manager
[02:59] <dystopianray> gar: visiting the subdomain doesn't work?
[02:59] <ShackJack> rockets: Don't you need to run on XGL session?
[02:59] <Pelo> Shyam,  yeah, you can eiter open the tar.gz file form the install button, or just drag and drop it on the right dialog box
[02:59] <rockets> ShackJack, no thats just for composite
[02:59] <madman91> i am experiencing ____very____ poor performance with avidemux when converting a .mkv with h264 and ac3 audio to xvid4 with mp3 audio.. it is going a frame a second .. ?
[02:59] <ShackJack> rockets: Also disable compositing in xorg.conf...
[02:59] <rockets> ShackJack, i do
[02:59] <madman91> i have a decent computer
[02:59] <rockets> im trying it again right now
[02:59] <Shyam> Pelo: it does not work at all
[02:59] <amonkey> are there any working kxdocker debs for feisty? repo pack seems to be broken
[03:00] <gar> nope, it doesn't - I get server not found
[03:00] <rockets> brb ShackJack
[03:00] <kitche> Shyam: extract the theme form it
[03:00] <dystopianray> gar: it may be that godaddy don't update their dns servers straight away and do a bunch of updates periodically every few hours
[03:00] <Shyam> it did that kitche
[03:00] <kitche> ShackJack: yeah hit tab to many times but I m sick today anyways so I feel ugh
[03:00] <Pelo> Shyam,  pay attention,  that tag.gz file you downloaded contains many parts ei, many other tar.gz files,  you need to unpack the one you downloaded and then drag drop the tar.gz files inside to the theme manager
[03:00] <dystopianray> gar: or I think some dns servers will cache non existant entries and not do a lookup until they timeout
[03:00] <ShackJack> kitche: Sick, but still helping people - my HERO :)
[03:01] <gar> what does that mean?
[03:01] <eboyjr> dystopianray: I'm sorry. I don't know how to do that.
[03:01] <File13> Quick question
[03:01] <Pelo> File13,  ther is no such thing
[03:01] <ShackJack> !ask | File13

[03:01] <File13> i live in dallas
[03:01] <Pelo> File13,  click on the map
[03:01] <File13> and youd think that at least one city in texas would be there
[03:01] <ShackJack> Pelo: I've been trying to tell the theme-gut that ;)
[03:02] <Nutubuntu> I'm looking for an app something like AutoHotKey or Quickeys -- something that will trap key sequences (for example, if I type " str ") and expand them on the fly into (for example) "my input string is pushed into a keyboard buffer somehow and then dumped into whatever I'm writing in gedit now." -- for strings I configure... is there something like either of those apps for Linux? if not, that'd be one of the few areas where I think we'
[03:02] <Nutubuntu> re lacking
[03:02] <File13> So is there any way i can have the dallas time?
[03:03] <dystopianray> File13: you weren't able to select Dallas (or a nearby capital) on the map that appeared?
[03:03] <Shyam> the theme still does not work at all :(
[03:03] <File13> no
[03:03] <dystopianray> gar: it means that your subdomain may take a number of hours to appear
[03:03] <Pelo> File13,  pick another city in that time zone, you know how time zones work ? they are the same from north to south
[03:03] <ShackJack> Pelo: Don't know how to use notice - nvrmind...
[03:03] <Pelo> Shyam,  give me the link to the file
[03:03] <bharath> can someone tell me why i have to open guarddog and click 'Apply' each time I restart the system?
[03:03] <dystopianray> gar: get somebody else to try and resolve the subdomain and see if it works for them
[03:03] <File13> yeah i know the time zones but their dont appear to be any in the -6 CST area
[03:03] <Pelo> ShackJack, same as /msg
[03:03] <bharath>  i though guarddog changes the firewall settings permanently
[03:04] <gar> so I shoudl wait until tomorrow?
[03:04] <olskolirc> how do i message the bot please?
[03:04] <lousygarua> hello all, anyone knows how to script executing a remote command over SSH?
[03:04] <kitche> olskolirc: /msg ubotu
[03:04] <madman91> i am experiencing ____very____ poor performance with avidemux when converting a .mkv with h264 and ac3 audio to xvid4 with mp3 audio.. it is going a frame a second .. .. any ideas as to why it is going so slow?
[03:04] <Pelo> File13,  click on the map
[03:04] <dystopianray> gar: if you pm me the subdomain I will see if I can resolve it, if you want
[03:04] <olskolirc> thanks
[03:04] <kitche> olskolirc: you need to be identified though I believe
[03:04] <Shyam> Pelo: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ubuntu-vista?content=54775
[03:04] <Pelo> Shyam,  hold on
[03:04] <bharath> can someone tell me why i have to open guarddog and click 'Apply' each time I restart the system? i though guarddog changes the firewall settings permanently
[03:04] <Shyam> Pelo, tks
[03:04] <dystopianray> madman91: your computer is not fast enough
[03:05] <madman91> dystopianray: its decent enough to go faster than a frame a second
[03:05] <kitche> bharath: it does
[03:05] <dystopianray> madman91: what is the resolution of the video?
[03:05] <madman91> dystopianray: it used to go faster.. possiblly 10 a second.. but now its super slow
[03:05] <kitche> bharath: unless your iptables tables are being flushed
[03:05] <olskolirc> the bot can't tell me how to get my lexmark 5400 working on fiesty fawn :-(
[03:05] <Pelo> Shyam,  that's a gdm theme, not a desktop theme,  that's for your logon screen , if you want to use it you need to use it in   menu > system > admin > connection windows,   second or third tab
[03:05] <madman91> dystopianray: um.. 700x300 ish?
[03:05] <bharath> kiche, i tried a simple a simple test
[03:06] <bharath> in my rules, i blocked 'ping'
[03:06] <kitche> olskolirc: might want to check linuxprinting.org for that
[03:06] <madman91> dystopianray: 7**x3** or x4**
[03:06] <Justi1> if i delete the linux-swap partition, how can I recreate it?
[03:06] <bharath> when i try ping <domain> from command line, it gets blocked
[03:06] <olskolirc> thanks
[03:06] <dystopianray> madman91: hrrm ok, well I don't know why it is going so slow then
[03:06] <bharath> but when I restart and try the same, it allows it
[03:06] <Pelo> Justi1, gparted,  but use the live cd to do it
[03:06] <dystopianray> madman91: is there another cpu intensive process running on your machine?
[03:06] <madman91> dystopianray: wait a minute.. it just bumped up
[03:06] <bharath> i have to open guarddog and apply it again
[03:06] <madman91> dystopianray: no, i closed everything.. even beryl
[03:06] <Pelo> Justi1,  then you'll need to make an entry in fstab
[03:06] <madman91> dystopianray: now its going ... 30 a second?
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> Justi1: but why do you want to delete the swap?
[03:07] <fbc> dystopianray, If you don't mind me asking, since Ubuntu is the utopia of OSes, why are you helping out if your dystopian?
[03:07] <kitche> bharath: then make a simple iptables init script so your rules get applied on boot
[03:07] <kitche> bharath: by chance are you just hitting apply and not save?
[03:07] <ShackJack> Justi1: THis guide will give you the jist...
[03:07] <madman91> dystopianray: 15 ish.. maybe.. hm thats weird

[03:10] <bharath> and it has no menu too
[03:10] <kitche> bharath: well sicne I don't have a graphical interface that url doesn't help but from my understand now guarddogg doesn't save iptables rules
[03:11] <kitche> bharath: I know firestarter does
[03:11] <bharath> ya i was using firestarted... but i liked guarddog more since it has much more functionality
[03:11] <leann> hi there
[03:12] <ShackJack> !hi | leann
[03:12] <ubotu> leann: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> !welcome
[03:12] <ubotu> Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[03:12] <Paddy_EIRE> !openssh > Paddy_EIRE
[03:12] <bharath> does firestarer also change the iptables directly? and don't i have to run it everytime once I change it?
[03:12] <kitche> bharath: but anyways just make a small firewall init script to load your rules into iptables all the time
[03:12] <File13> I asked this yesterday but to finalize as im making the partiton my swap partiton if i have a 1gb stick of ram but a 60gb HDD am i safe making the swap partition 512 or should i double the amount of my ram (2gb)
[03:12] <shnastybiznastic> bizarre question:  I have some old MP3 files from when I first started converting my music collection.  When I load them up in XMMS, it reports the file length as a huge signed integer.  Is there anything that can be done about this?
[03:13] <shnastybiznastic> They play fine, but it worries me...
[03:13] <bharath> but how do i extract the iptables rules from guarddog? or do i have to look at how to do it directly with iptables?
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> shnastybiznastic: is this a tag issue?
[03:13] <ShackJack> File13: 1.5x2 RAM is fine though you can run fine with less...
[03:13] <eugman> nickrud, 's ok
[03:13] <leann> theres some driver for a speedtouch 330 usb modem ?
[03:13] <kitche> bharath: it should tell you the rules but I have never looked at guarddogg myself
[03:13] <rockets> ShackJack, its not working.
[03:13] <File13> would 1gb vs 512 make a real difference though?
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> File13: i'd go with 1.5x ram, but 512 is probably ok.
[03:13] <bharath> okay.. let me try if it prints out the rules in the console when i apply
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> File13: if things get bogged down it could.
[03:14] <nickrud> bharath, iptables (which is installed) comes with the utils iptables-save & -restore, you probably can whip up a quick script
[03:14] <exyan> how do u enable vsync with aiglx @ beryl ?
[03:14] <shnastybiznastic> IndyGunFreak: I don't think so, all the tags show up fine, but the length of the song shows up as some strange number like -123456:89
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> shnastybiznastic: do you know if your problem is a tag issue, it sounds like it might be?
[03:14] <kitche> bharath: myself I use pf which is much more powerful then iptables for what I use it for
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> shnastybiznastic: hmm, that is wierd.
[03:15] <File13> Well im asking all these questions but i dont really have an idea of what theh hell swap partition is
[03:15] <File13> Someone mentioned its like virtual memory
[03:15] <dk0r> file13 have you googled it ?
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> File13: more or less.
[03:15] <kitche> File13: it's the same thing as pagefile in windows
[03:15] <shnastybiznastic> File13: it's fake RAM
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> File13: why are you worrying over 512mb vs 1.5gigs?.. youu have 60ggs free
[03:15] <bharath> iptables-save dumps the rules..
[03:16] <dk0r> file13 it is like virtual memory.. like the file paging system, except on a separate partition, which apparentlly makes it 'faster'
[03:16] <File13> ah
[03:16] <bharath> so i just dump it after I apply using guarddog and put it in an init script?
[03:16] <dk0r> its not RAM
[03:16] <File13> ill just go with 1.5 to be safe
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> File13: thats probably plenty
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> File13: is that whole 60gigs for Ubuntu?
[03:16] <menkio> anyone know how i unban someone
[03:16] <dissection> How do I reduce the volume, or mute the PC speaker?
[03:16] <menkio> err, i mean unignore
[03:16] <File13> well
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> dissection: right click the horn, and choose mute
[03:16] <RickH> How can I share files between two Ubuntu machines?
[03:16] <kitche> menkio: with /unigore <nick> :P
[03:16] <dystopianray> dissection: sudo modprobe -r pcspkr
[03:17] <kitche> menkio: /unignore that is
[03:17] <File13> the whole laptop HDD is 80gb, but i gave 20 to XP and im giving 60 to Ubuntu
[03:17] <dissection> IndyGunFreak: The PC speaker, not the one with the soundcard
[03:17] <menkio> UNIGORE Unknown command
[03:17] <dissection> dystopianray: thanks
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> dissection: oh ok, sorry
[03:17] <kitche> menkio: forgot the n :)
[03:17] <menkio> UNIGNORE Unknown command
[03:17] <dissection> The beep is really annoying
[03:17] <kitche> menkio: what client are you on
[03:17] <menkio> mirc
[03:17] <dystopianray> dissection: blacklist it and it won't ever appear again
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> File13: ok.
[03:17] <menkio> i thought it was server side..
[03:17] <kitche> menkio: are you usign a script with mirc
[03:18] <dissection> dystopianray: blacklist it? How?
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> File13: 60 is PLENTY for ubuntu, give 1.5gigs for the swap, and the rest to ubuntu, you'll be fine.
[03:18] <menkio> ohh, it's a switch
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> File13: are you gonna have some free space on that Xp partition?
[03:18] <kitche> menkio: correct
[03:18] <menkio> To Unignore them, type /ignore -r luv2quilt 3
[03:18] <kitche> menkio: I just use /unignore which is the same pretty much
[03:18] <File13> well ubuntu is going to be my main OS on the laptop so id like to give it alot of space to hold stuff
[03:18] <dystopianray> dissection: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:18] <menkio> that isn't a command for some reason
[03:19] <File13> because 60gb isnt that much for me, i have a macbook pro with a 120gb HDD and thats still to small
[03:19] <kitche> menkio: think it depends if you use a script or not
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> File13: ok, do as you wish.
[03:19] <dissection> dystopianray: So just add 'blacklist pcspkr' in there?
[03:20] <File13> why, what would the free space on XP matter
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> File13: wel, if you end up needing to go back to XP, either for gaming, or whatever.. yuou want plenty of room to install new software, etc.
[03:20] <elmajico> Could somone tell me where i can edit bootscreen options, i would like to boot up without the ubuntu loading screen, just want text boot
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:20] <DimitrisC> Anyone knows how many fps in glxgears is considered normal for an ati x300 or a similar low budget card?
[03:21] <File13> well the only game i really play is WoW and i can install that on Ubuntu via crossover or wine so i should be set
[03:21] <RickH> How can I share files between two Ubuntu machines?  Right now in Nautilus, I can't see other Ubuntu computers on my network.
[03:21] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: thank you
[03:21] <shnastybiznastic> DimitrisC: what are you getting?
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: no prob, i'm not sure exactly what you need to modify though
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> File13: ok...
[03:21] <dystopianray> dissection: yep
[03:21] <shnastybiznastic> File13: the key here is to not burn your bridges
[03:21] <dissection> dystopianray: Okay, I've done it.
[03:21] <DimitrisC> shnastybiznastic: ~2000
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> shnastybiznastic: EXACTLY
[03:22] <ShackJack> DimitrisC: glxgears not an accurate benchmark, but if the gears are running smoothly, it's all good ;)
[03:22] <File13> its not my main laptop so im not to worried
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> in case there's a problem
[03:22] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: by default ubuntu loads with the ubuntu logo and an orange loading bar, i want to see all the text that would be there if the guiboot was hidden
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> right.
[03:22] <shnastybiznastic> DimitrisC: sounds pretty good, fglrx?
[03:22] <File13> i use OSX as my main OS, so having XP on there is purely for running like two programs that i need for other things thus the low gb usage
[03:22] <shnastybiznastic> File13: as long as you know you don't need an out...
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: hang on, i'll see if i can find the option.
[03:22] <dissection> Much better now. I've set my beep to play a .WAV file on IRC. It was annoying with the PC speaker also beeping along with it. Its much better now :D
[03:22] <DimitrisC> shnastybiznastic: Yes but not the latest ati drives
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> File13: how experienced with Linux are you?
[03:23] <shnastybiznastic> DimitrisC: bah, you should be fine.  What are you going to run on it?
[03:23] <File13> midly
[03:23] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[03:23] <DimitrisC> shnastybiznastic: Nothing in particular! I was just playing around and I was wondering if 2000 fps is ok
[03:23] <verboz> hello
[03:23] <verboz> i've pb with automatix
[03:24] <verboz> i've intalled it with edgy
[03:24] <verboz> and it work perfectly
[03:24] <shnastybiznastic> I guess what IndyGunFreak and I are about is making sure you don't end up screwed
[03:24] <verboz> but with feisty i have pb
[03:24] <ShackJack> !enter | verboz
[03:24] <ubotu> verboz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:24] <File13> im willing to learn though, im not a total noob so i think i could get a grasp fairly easy. im not gonna do the mistakes i did the first time with using terminal w/o knowing what i was doing. To start im just gonna install the software from add/remove and synaptic until i learn fully how to use the different repositories
[03:24] <verboz> ok
[03:24] <shnastybiznastic> DimitrisC: yeah, that sounds like it's kicking butts.  Try some of the 3d screensavers
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> File13: just remember, i can microwave a pizza, but it doesn't make me a chef
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> ie.. you might be good at windows, but linux is a whole other ballgame
[03:25] <menkio> im eating mic pizza right now
[03:25] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, can I quote you?
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:25] <menkio> barons or something
[03:25] <menkio> deep dish
[03:25] <menkio> so good
[03:25] <File13> Haha people were so encouraging yesterday now it appears that people are talking me out of giving so much space to ubuntu
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: lol, i supose
[03:25] <menkio> check this out
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> File13: no, not at all, i absolutely encourage you to do this i just don't want you to screw yourself
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> don't take this as me discouraging you
[03:25] <menkio> one sec here
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> File13:  You just dont need massive space dedicated to ubuntu..
[03:26] <File13> oh well you dont really have to worry, like i said all my valuable things are on OSX so im not worried about screwing up, this is an old laptop thats just for experimenting with linux
[03:26] <MythGuy> hello.
[03:26] <ShackJack> !hi | MythGuy
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: you still there?
[03:26] <ubotu> MythGuy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> File13: ok, then attack it.
[03:26] <MythGuy> I have a quick question about Ubuntu...
[03:26] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: yea
[03:26] <shnastybiznastic> File13: Linux users can be super cautious.  I, For example, have been using Linux as my main OS since about '98, but I just recently dropped Windows off my desktop alltogether.
[03:26] <File13> Well wouldnt i want to have alot of space if i was gonna install programs and all that kinda stuff
[03:27] <Ashfire908> i'm trying to figure out a way to keep two folders in sync. how would i go about doing it?
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: did you sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:27] <menkio> http://66.31.11.34:420/
[03:27] <verboz> how to desinstall automatix with packages?
[03:27] <ShackJack> !ask | MythGuy
[03:27] <ubotu> MythGuy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:27] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: yeah looking over it as we speak
[03:27] <Almighty_Henaro> Hey guys when you install j2sdk through apt where does the java bin folder get installed too?
[03:27] <menkio> pizza right there
[03:27] <menkio> its great
[03:27] <MythGuy> What's the required CPU speed for Ubuntu?
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: ok, and you'll see this entry.. "#defoptions=quiet splash"
[03:27] <ShackJack> Ashfire908: Check out rsync and gtkrsync
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: i believe if you remove that # sign, you'll get what you want.
[03:28] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: yeah i see that, remove it?
[03:28] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: roger
[03:28] <kitche> Almighty_Henaro: probably /usr/bin or /usr/lib/java/ and symlinked to from /usr/bin
[03:28] <eugman> Hey, what's the fastest program to conver a tif to a jpg?
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: just remove the # sign, nothing else
[03:28] <Ashfire908> ShackJack, uh, and that is?
[03:28] <Almighty_Henaro> kitche, thanks. :D
[03:28] <nickrud> MythGuy, 800mhz will work ok, with a lot of memory
[03:28] <Toma-> eugman: convert
[03:28] <ShackJack> Ashfire908: Check Synaptic for description - search for rsync
[03:28] <kitche> Almighty_Henaro: I just grab the .bin file and put java in /usr/lib/java
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: i would restart to see if thats it for sure, but i've got a large file downloading.
[03:29] <eugman> Toma, I am continually surprised by the nameing system of linux programs
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> but its simply enough to recomment out(with the # sign) if thats not it.
[03:29] <madman91> willl swap show up in mount ?
[03:29] <ShackJack> Ashfire908: grsync is a graphical frontend for it to ease setup n syncronizong folders..
[03:29] <nickrud> Almighty_Henaro, if you're using the repos for apt, sudo update-alternatives --config java will solve a lot of issues
[03:30] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: actually ther is no "#defoptions=quiet splash"  only  "ro quiet splash" at the end of the kernel string
[03:30] <nickrud> s/apt/java
[03:30] <Toma-> eugman: it is ever so fun. btw, 'time' doesnt give you the time, the 'date' command does.
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: hmm.
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> hang on
[03:30] <madman91> where can i check if my swap is on? its not in 'mount'
[03:30] <File13> Now im second guessing giving so much to ubuntu :-\
[03:31] <eugman> Toma, I actually ran into that problem
[03:31] <Ashfire908> ShackJack, i'm doing stuff via vnc and the server doesn't have internet access
[03:31] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: if you'd like i can send u a complete boot entry in pm
[03:31] <nickrud> madman91, probably better answers out there, but top will show
[03:31] <Toma-> eugman: fun one isnt it :D
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> !paste | elmajico
[03:31] <ubotu> elmajico: 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)
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: just paste it.
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> using pastebin
[03:31] <File13> Id have to use a windows program to add the freespace onto my windows partition though wouldnt i, gparted couldnt do that
[03:31] <kitche> File13: you could just make the freespace fat32 and use it as a share partition
[03:32] <Ashfire908> ShackJack, where can i get the package file?
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> File13: are you saying if you wanted to give space back to Windows, from Ubuntu?
[03:33] <File13> yeah, say if i wanted to add another 20gb to windows
[03:33] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31740/plain/
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: ok
[03:33] <amd64guy> hey guys, I accidently did FORMAT F: instead of FORMAT J:, you know how it is
[03:33] <Davy_Jones> File13: you'll have to use gparted, which doesn't work right, so you're out of luck
[03:33] <amd64guy> so now I have to reinstall ubuntu
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> File13: you could use gparted to give ext3 space back to XP
[03:33] <ShackJack> Ashfire908: Dunno, but if on ubuntu now you can download then fetch file in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> it wouldn't be that difficult
[03:33] <amd64guy> but gparted doesn't work right, it mounts everything and doesn't let them unmount
[03:33] <amd64guy> can I get around this?
[03:34] <aaronc> what is a good MP3 collection organizer?
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> amd64guy: if you boot the live CD, it works fine
[03:34] <amd64guy> IndyGunFreak: I'm using it now
[03:34] <amd64guy> IndyGunFreak: that's how it behaves
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> amd64guy: i mean the Gparted Live CD, not the Ubuntu live CD
[03:34] <File13> ok so if i have free space, i can put that into my windows partiton on Ubuntu?!
[03:34] <amd64guy> IndyGunFreak: ah, and how would I get that?
[03:34] <File13> wouldnt i have to be on my windows partition to regain the space
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: hmm, you might be able to comment out quiet, and see what happens.. that might do the trick
[03:35] <amd64guy> IndyGunFreak: is it alright if I use an older live cd, such as edgy
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> aaragon, amarok, exaile, banshee, Listen loads of great players/organisers
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> amd64guy: no..., the gparted live cd, is gparted, running on fluxbox, its its own little OS basically, but all it does is format drives
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> aaragon, any specifics
[03:35] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: hows the comment syntax on these config files?
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> amd64guy: google "Gparted Live CD", it will be the first entry that comes up
[03:35] <amd64guy> got it
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: to comment out(hide) a line, put a # sign at the beginning of it.
[03:36] <dimas_> does any body knows about webcam broadcasting in flash player?
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: that will basically make the line get "skipped" as the file is read
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: i'm not sure if commenting out quiet will fix your prob though
[03:37] <lethologica> Is the compiz downloads from compiz.org the same as compiz-fusion?
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: hold on, let me move this download to my PC, and i'll try it on my laptop.. i don't want to screw you up
[03:37] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: ok cool, gonna go see if it worked, ill be back with results
[03:37] <kitche> lethologica: no that is compiz
[03:37] <lethologica> Where can I get compiz-fusion?
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: well, you can be the guinea pig, or i can, doesn't matte to me..lol
[03:37] <Paddy_EIRE> lethologica, I dont think they are although ask in #ubuntu-effects
[03:37] <kitche> lethologica: but the git and such is the same
[03:37] <kitche> lethologica: from the git repo from compiz.org
[03:38] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: ill do it np :). be right back
[03:38] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: lol, ok
[03:38] <kitche> lethologica: opencompositing.org is compiz-fusion site right now
[03:38] <ShackJack> lethologica: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[03:38] <lethologica> Thanks, I will check there, also, is there a gui for svn repos like Tortise SVN for windows?
[03:38] <File13> ok i byset 20gb as a shareable fat32 partition but what do i put as the mount point on it
[03:38] <dimas_> hello hello i am testing my microphone is there anybody able to hear me?
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> dimas_: ?.. why would we be able to hear you?
[03:39] <File13> just put mount point as "/"
[03:39] <File13> ?
[03:39] <miscellanea> dimas, I can not hear you.
[03:39] <ShackJack> File13: No that's root -- name it whatever /fat32  etc...
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> File13: what ShackJack said
[03:40] <dimas_> 1 2 3 test test
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> !test | dimas_
[03:40] <miscellanea> can anyone step-by-step me through using WINE?
[03:40] <ubotu> dimas_: failed
[03:40] <ShackJack> File13: Or /shared :)
[03:40] <IndyGunFreak> miscellanea: wine is hit and miss, mostly miss, it depends on what you want to do with it.
[03:40] <ShackJack> miscellanea: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine?highlight=%28wine%29
[03:41] <miscellanea> erm. I've read numerous threads on it, but no one actually writes how to use it.
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> miscellanea: what are you wanting to do with win?
[03:41] <nickrud> lethologica, several; I like svn-workbench for browsing
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> wine?
[03:41] <dimas_> hello indygunfreeak
[03:41] <ShackJack> miscellanea: It's all there: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine?highlight=%28wine%29
[03:41] <lethologica> nickrud, thanks I will check that out
[03:41] <Lichnet> Hello, I have a movie.avi and its subtitles are movie.en.avi and I can choose em in dvd player,  but how can i do this in gnu linux / ubuntu, wine mplayer and totem couldnt find the subs... how can i specify the subs/
[03:42] <dimas_> how are you today indy
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> dimas_: i'm fine, yourself?
[03:42] <miscellanea> I'll read that link. Also, I've installed it from the add/remove but it isn't showing up anywhere.
[03:42] <dimas_> my ass is a little numm but  i am ok
[03:42] <youknowme> I have a dvd burner and some video files, how do I make I playable dvd for my stand alone dvd player?
[03:43] <Lichnet> youknowme: there are dvdplayers that support avi, but older dont
[03:43] <ShackJack> miscellanea: I think it's command line those there's a new GUI utility - see getdeb.net
[03:43] <Lichnet> youknowme: u must convert your media (avi, if is the case) to mpeg and then compact in dvd-video
[03:44] <Icehawk> if you are using nero, it got a render that you can use
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> Lichnet: hmm, i always wondered that, sounds lke a pain
[03:44] <Icehawk> *renderer
[03:44] <youknowme> yes, sounds like a lot of work
[03:44] <dimas_> lichnet do you know flash player?
[03:44] <youknowme> isn't there a program?
[03:45] <Lichnet> dimas_: adobe flash player?
[03:45] <youknowme> a program that will just do it all and burn the dvd?
[03:45] <Ashfire908> i can't access my shared folder on windows. i set it up to share on windows networks. it prompts me for a user and pass. i enter my user and pass and it rejects it
[03:45] <dimas_> lichnet yes i receive video from others but mine does go out, what should i do?
[03:46] <miscellanea> I installed wine from synaptic today, then went to the official homepage, there was an upgrade, so I installed that, then read elsewhere on the site that I should uninstall old versions first.
[03:46] <miscellanea> I didn't do that.
[03:46] <Lichnet> dimas_: what do you mean?
[03:46] <Lichnet> dimas_: cant understand what are you talkin about
[03:46] <miscellanea> How do I make sure everything wine is uninstalled so I can reinstall from scratch?
[03:46] <dimas_> lichnet let me explain you
[03:46] <ShackJack> miscellanea: sudo aptitude purge wine
[03:46] <miscellanea> thank you
[03:47] <ShackJack> miscellanea: Or use synaptic :)
[03:47] <miscellanea> I don't think synaptic worked for me.
[03:47] <miscellanea> Like I said, after reinstalling it doesn't show up in my applications.
[03:48] <miscellanea> So, I figured that maybe something wasn't uninstalled properly.
[03:48] <ShackJack> !enter | miscellanea
[03:48] <ubotu> miscellanea: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:48] <Paddy_EIRE> miscellanea, if you built it from source there is possible an uninstall.sh in the folder you compiled in originaly
[03:48] <ShackJack> miscellanea: I think wine is commadn line only but there;s a gui thing I mentioend before...
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> yup, winecfg
[03:49] <coldfire> i'm having difficulties getting the optical out to work on my AC97 sound card ... i've tried turning on the IEC958 switch and setting the 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' level to 0, with no luck
[03:49] <Paddy_EIRE> miscellanea, there is also wine-doors
[03:49] <miscellanea> Yeah, I saw the gui earlier today. Before I intalled the upgrade. Now it's command line only.
[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> brb
[03:49] <coldfire> is there some other configuration i'm missing?  having trouble finding solutions on google :/
[03:49] <dimas_> lichnet i go to a web page that has webcam chat and i can be able to see the other people camera but when i turn on mine the people dont receive any video from me and i allow software to transmit...perhaps i dont have any problem using my camera on amsn
[03:49] <Lichnet> dimas_: never tried this, but maybe ur cam port is locked
[03:50] <macd_> has anyone had a problem with feisty livecd, xchat, running any sort of perl script kilols the client?
[03:50] <Lichnet> dimas_: open your port for sending cam to others
[03:50] <zerokill88> in a script, before i do any other command, how do i get bash to open up a terminal. to display command resuts?
[03:50] <dimas_> lichnet how i do that?
[03:50] <dimas_> lichnet and from where?
[03:51] <miscellanea> what I want to do with WINE is run Warcraft 3, Microsoft Word (for compatibility purposes).
[03:51] <Lichnet> dimas_: get a gui for firewall, (firestarter)
[03:51] <jetscreamer> !info lokkit
[03:51] <Paddy_EIRE> is it just me or do fonts look much better in kde
[03:51] <ubotu> lokkit: basic interactive firewall configuration tool (console interface). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.50.22-7.1 (feisty), package size 124 kB, installed size 792 kB
[03:51] <marcz> I recently bought packetpenguin.net and am on a dynamic IP.  Can I go to each of my machines and add packetpenguin.net to their domain names? Or will this cause problems?
[03:51] <jetscreamer> how easy can you get
[03:51] <ShackJack> miscellanea: O.K. So get to it ;)  Oo has decent Word compatability...
[03:51] <jetscreamer> it's just you
[03:51] <jetscreamer> (not)
[03:51] <dimas_> lichnet i dont have firewall installed
[03:52] <marcz> I want the FQDN to be machinename.packetpenguin.net
[03:52] <miscellanea> shackjack: Bad formatting there.
[03:52] <Lichnet> dimas_: Ubuntu gnu/linux has native firewall
[03:52] <Lichnet> dimas_: install firestarter to handle it in GUI
[03:52] <elmajico> dang i forgot who was just helping me with the boot screen
[03:52] <miscellanea> formatting doesn't switch from oo files to .doc files very pretty.
[03:52] <Paddy_EIRE> jetscreamer, has that always been the way its is or is it possible to get gnomes fonts looking that clean
[03:52] <Lichnet> dimas_: Apps-> Add/Remove-> Firestarter
[03:52] <menkio> anyone know the right connection settings for a netra t1
[03:52] <dimas_> and then unlock it from there?
[03:53] <menkio> via console port / hyperterminal
[03:53] <miscellanea> I want to run from linux full time, but I want to be able to run one game and some microsoft applications for work purposes, since everyone else uses word.
[03:53] <miscellanea> sorry for multiple lines.
[03:53] <SqrlKng> Hey, can someone with experience with fdisk take a look at this and help me out?  http://pastebin.ca/637619
[03:53] <dystopianray> miscellanea: which game and which application?
[03:53] <menkio> flow control off, 1 bit, and 9600 right
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> miscellanea, what game if you dont mind me asking
[03:53] <dimas_> lichnet you meant firestarter is already installed in my system?
[03:54] <Lichnet> dimas_: firestarter does not come already installed in ubuntu
[03:54] <ShackJack> elmajico: I think it was IndyGunFreak...
[03:54] <Lichnet> dimas_: you must install it
[03:54] <miscellanea> warcraft 3, and microsoft word, powerpoint.
[03:54] <Lichnet> dimas_: im away, watchin movie
[03:54] <dystopianray> miscellanea: warcraft 3 works in wine
[03:54] <menkio> i gotit
[03:54] <menkio> nevermind
[03:54] <dystopianray> miscellanea: you can run ms office with crossover office or maye wine
[03:54] <marcz> Anyone have experience in FQDMs?
[03:54] <miscellanea> yeah, but how? I looked for the wc3.exe and it didn't find it.
[03:54] <Paddy_EIRE> miscellanea, ms office can run in ubuntu and im sure warcraft 3 is the same, you would need either cedega or crossover office
[03:54] <dystopianray> miscellanea: openoffice is good too, but depends on which ms office features you use
[03:55] <ShackJack> miscellanea: Yeah,  um what are you asking? The link provided earlier should have all info you need or check out #winehq
[03:55] <Icehawk> miscellanea: you wont be needing word here
[03:55] <dimas_> lichnet so how that come my camera is lock if is not installed
[03:55] <dystopianray> marc_: FQDN you mean?
[03:55] <dystopianray> marc_: sorry wrong person
[03:55] <marcz> dystopianray, yes
[03:55] <dystopianray> marcz: what about them?
[03:55] <elmajico> ShackJack: yeah thanks man i was trying to scroll through all the names lol
[03:55] <miscellanea> I only need word because of compatibility issues.
[03:55] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: hey you still here?
[03:55] <Lichnet> dimas_: firewall is native in linux, firestarter is just a gui to facilitate you to handle ports and whatever
[03:56] <marcz> dystopianray, I just bought packetpenguin.net and want to have a FQDN for my boxes, how do i go about that?
[03:56] <dimas_> lichnet anyhow let go and try
[03:56] <Icehawk> ill stick around waiting for flightsim to finish downloading :)
[03:56] <kitche> marcz: <host>.packetpenguin.net is a FQDN
[03:56] <Icehawk> i only use windoze for playing games that i cant play in ubuntu
[03:57] <dystopianray> marcz: are you going to be pointing your domain at your boxes?
[03:57] <marcz> kitche, so the machine in question is linux, then the domain name would be packetpenguin.net, creating linus.packetpenguin.net?
[03:57] <Icehawk> the only thing ubuntu misses is NTFS write support
[03:57] <menkio> anyone know the command in hyperterminal to break the boot
[03:57] <menkio> and goto console, it's a sun netra t1
[03:57] <ShackJack> Icehawk: It's got it :)
[03:57] <dystopianray> !ntfs-3g | Icehawk
[03:57] <ubotu> Icehawk: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: yeah
[03:57] <Paddy_EIRE> Icehawk, err, yes it does
[03:57] <marcz> dystopianray, what do you man?
[03:57] <weltschmerz> anyone know how to get wifi working on a dell d410?
[03:57] <kitche> marcz: for exampel I call my machine njord
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: i see it didn't work
[03:58] <Icehawk> experimental or complete?
[03:58] <dystopianray> Icehawk: complete
[03:58] <dystopianray> Icehawk: it's been around for over a year
[03:58] <weltschmerz> i modprobed bcm43xx
[03:58] <miscellanea> ubotu: doesn't that have problems?
[03:58] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: use ndiswrapper
[03:58] <ShackJack> !wifi | weltschmerz -- good info here
[03:58] <ubotu> weltschmerz -- good info here: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:58] <kitche> marcz: and I own kitchetech.com so it would be njord.kitchetech.com if I wanted to have my domain point to my machine
[03:58] <Paddy_EIRE> Icehawk, aint ever had a problem with ntfs write
[03:58] <Icehawk> ah, im not that old in linux, i have been with ubuntu a month or so
[03:58] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: nope, and i also noticed i get the same screen on shutdown, so id like to eliminate that as well
[03:58] <Icehawk> but i love it :)
[03:58] <dystopianray> marcz: is your domain going to be pointing at your network?
[03:58] <Nutubuntu> I'm looking for an app something like AutoHotKey or Quickeys -- something that will trap key sequences I configure (for example, " str ") and expand them on the fly (for example, I might define " str " to expand into "my input string." Is there something like either of those apps for Linux?
[03:58] <menkio> anyone know the command in hyperterminal to break the boot ?
[03:58] <menkio> and goto console, it's a sun netra t1
[03:58] <dystopianray> marcz: are you marchines going to be accessible from the internet using your new domain?
[03:58] <tupa> !tell tupa about install
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> weltschmerz: That should be a broadcom chipset if it is the internal dell wifi card mini pci
[03:59] <marcz> dystopianray, just the web/mail and ftp boxes
[03:59] <tupa> !tell me about install
[03:59] <marx2k> Does anyone have any issues with system freezes with compiz? (while the mouse still continues to work)?
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: hmm, i know there's a way to do it, cuz i done it on edgy...
[03:59] <weltschmerz> Jack_Sparrow i modprobed bcm43xx
[03:59] <weltschmerz> nothing happens.
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: i thought i did it via menu.lst
[03:59] <ShackJack> !install | tupa
[03:59] <ubotu> tupa: 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
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> weltschmerz: Easy to get going...
[03:59] <Paddy_EIRE> marx2k, ati ??
[03:59] <Icehawk> *ponders why the channel has so many people if only about a 100 are actually talking here*
[03:59] <marx2k> nope, nvidia
[03:59] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> weltschmerz: synaptic and find fwcutter...
[03:59] <menkio> it was like ctrl something
[04:00] <menkio> shift somewthing
[04:00] <marcz> dystopianray, so where do I have to make the domain changes/
[04:00] <kitche> marcz: that hard part really is deciding on a dns software
[04:00] <SqrlKng> Menkio What are you trying to stop?
[04:00] <dystopianray> marcz: just point your domains A records at your ip address
[04:00] <ShackJack> Icehawk: are you feeling ignored or something :)
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Icehawk: Many are reading along and learning
[04:00] <marcz> dystopianray, already done that
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !broadcom
[04:00] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:00] <Icehawk> lawl Shackjack
[04:00] <kitche> Hey do any of you know if they patched bind for ubuntu yet?
[04:00] <dystopianray> marcz: forward the necessary ports to the correct machine and you're pretty much done
[04:00] <Icehawk> i hope they are learning :)
[04:01] <dystopianray> kitche: for the random number exploit? yes
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> can somebody say my name, i think my sound isn't working
[04:01] <marcz> dystopianray, I dont have to worry about the domain name invalid entry in admin>networking?
[04:01] <Ashfire908> when i try to access a shared folder on a ubuntu server on a windows computer, it prompts me for a user and password, but it won't accept my user and pass. i have full permissions.
[04:01] <kitche> dystopianray: ok just making sure since I know openbsd was the only one that wasn't affect by it :)
[04:01] <SqrlKng> IndyGunFreak
[04:01] <marcz> IndyGunFreak,
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> SqrlKng: thanks... i guess it is, i must be going deef.
[04:01] <dystopianray> marcz: shouldn't have to
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> marcz: thanks..
[04:02] <kitche> Ashfire908: did you do smbpasswd?
[04:02] <dystopianray> marcz: you don't need to be using the domain in your internal lan
[04:02] <dystopianray> marcz: it'll only be useful for external access
[04:02] <SqrlKng> Any have any experience with fdisk and/or resizing ntfs partitions?
[04:02] <menkio> anyone know the terminal break..
[04:02] <menkio> for consoel devices
[04:02] <Paddy_EIRE> SqrlKng, tread carefully
[04:02] <marcz> dystopianray, ok , thanks, i just am getting readyto set up postfix and was not sure about the FQDN
[04:02] <SqrlKng> Menkio:  Some are ctrl+shft+6+x
[04:02] <kitche> dystopianray: well with postfix he might have to :)
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: sorry man, i can't remember how i done that, maybe someone wll be able to help
[04:03] <SqrlKng> Paddy_EIRE: I've already treaded, and now I'm trying to see if someone can help me out of a bind :\
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> !splash
[04:03] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[04:03] <dystopianray> marcz: i don't know anything about setting up postfix, only sendmail
[04:03] <menkio> dolike what ones sqrlkng
[04:03] <menkio> care to explain
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> !splash | elmajico
[04:03] <ubotu> elmajico: please see above
[04:03] <SqrlKng> menkio: I know that consoled into various routers the break command is ctrl+shift+6 or ctrl+shif+6+x
[04:04] <axl000> hi
[04:04] <SqrlKng> menkio: Sometimes it's ctrl+c
[04:04] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: ok np im sure ill dig it up, thanks for your help i appreciate it
[04:04] <SqrlKng> menkio: or ctrl+shift+break
[04:04] <pawan> hi
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: no prob... i know it can be done though, i done it on edgy, just can't remember how.
[04:04] <menkio> i'm talking about logging on via the console
[04:04] <menkio> console cable, and hyperterminal
[04:04] <ShackJack> !hi | pawan
[04:04] <ubotu> pawan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:04] <pawan> any new screensavers
[04:04] <axl000> is a way to get back to the default hardware configuration on ubuntu??
[04:04] <SqrlKng> menkio: consoling into what, though?
[04:04] <Ashfire908> kitche, since i've never heard of the command before, no.
[04:04] <axl000> like a restauration mode?
[04:04] <menkio> i thought it was ctrl-] 
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> axisys: reinstall?
[04:04] <menkio> a sun netra t1
[04:04] <menkio> via telnet
[04:05] <pawan> can see options name in xmms playe
[04:05] <kitche> Ashfire908: well that's the reason why most likely you can't get in you don't have a samba password setup for your user
[04:05] <menkio> i did that and got into it
[04:05] <menkio> now im trying to boot to the ubuntu install cd
[04:05] <dystopianray> marcz: should be able to just point an MX record at your mail server, then postfix likely has an option in it's config to set the FQDN
[04:05] <marx2k> so no one else had issues with Ubuntu freezing while doing certain tasks and only the mouse continues to work?
[04:05] <menkio> tricky part is its not covered in the install guide via ubuntu
[04:05] <dimas_> lichnet are you still there?
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> whats the tricky part?
[04:06] <menkio> when i type boot cdrom
[04:06] <menkio> it says can't read disk label
[04:06] <menkio> ohh crap
[04:06] <menkio> im dumb
[04:06] <menkio> its a dvd
[04:06] <ShackJack> !enter | menkio
[04:06] <Paddy_EIRE> marx2k, keep in mind beryl and compiz are quite unstable
[04:06] <ubotu> menkio: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:06] <menkio> lol, sorry
[04:06] <elmajico> Anybody know how to kill the gui during boot and shutdown? (the orange ubuntu bar & logo) - I would like to see the the normal text boot that show everything load
[04:06] <marx2k> Paddy: Yep, but it even freezes on me if I do 'metacity --replace'
[04:06] <SqrlKng> menkio: heh
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: did you look at that bot message i sent you, maybe the instructions are there.
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> !splash | elmajico
[04:07] <ubotu> elmajico: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[04:07] <kitche> elmajico: remove quiet and splash from menu.lst
[04:07] <menkio> prob cause i'm on a 40" widescreen
[04:07] <SqrlKng> So does anyone feel like spending a couple of minutes to help me out with an ntfs partition?
[04:07] <menkio> Resolution: 3360x1050x32bpp 60Hz
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> kitche: quiet and splash?...
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> hmm.. maybe thats where we went wrong
[04:08] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: im sorry i cant see the link
[04:08] <dystopianray> menkio: is that one screen?
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: did you block ubotu messages?.. hang on i'll cut paste it for you.
[04:08] <egomaniac> Does anyone know exactly how to install flash?
[04:08] <menkio> naa, 2 20" dell widescreens
[04:08] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: oh i didnt know that was u also
[04:09] <tetrimino> hello everybody
[04:09] <menkio> but i also have a 37" dell widescreen tv i use as well
[04:09] <dystopianray> egomaniac: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[04:09] <madman91> dystopianray: :-) i ditched avidemux because it crashed X .. now i am running mencoder with screen :)
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:09] <dystopianray> madman91: ok, cool
[04:09] <dystopianray> madman91: I would use ffmpeg
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> elmajico: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[04:09] <madman91> dystopianray: why?
[04:09] <Icehawk> hmm... something weird here
[04:09] <dystopianray> madman91: becuase it's what I know how to use
[04:09] <tetrimino> menkio talking about widescreens? i got a 42" lcd hd panasonic :D
[04:09] <kitche> sigh IndyGunFreak that's not what he wants lol it's usplash stuff
[04:09] <Icehawk> my firecracker shows up 3 connections
[04:09] <SqrlKng> Anybody?  NTFS?  It's not that scary....
[04:09] <Icehawk> ath0, eth0, wifi0
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> kitche: ok..
[04:10] <dystopianray> Icehawk: that is normal
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> but i thouht that had a option to turn off splash for some reason
[04:10] <robersonfox> hi
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> !usplash
[04:10] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[04:10] <madman91> dystopianray: but is there any performance increase?
[04:10] <Icehawk> i know
[04:10] <Icehawk> heres the weird thing
[04:10] <dystopianray> Icehawk: ath0 and wifi0 are the atheros card
[04:10] <kitche> IndyGunFreak: well not for boot splash
[04:10] <elmajico> IndyGunFreak: ok brb gonna try
[04:10] <dystopianray> madman91: no idea
[04:10] <blithen> I was wondering if someone could tell me how to install Compiz, I'm extremely noobish in this area of installation.
[04:10] <menkio> not bad.. what about your audio.. i have 2 five feet towers i built, each with 4 dayton rs series 6.5" midranges, and planar tweeters
[04:10] <Icehawk> ath0 is the only one supposed to be sending/receiving data
[04:10] <Icehawk> but i got wifi0 and ath0 receiving/sending data
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> kitche: ok... i'll bow out, i done that many moons ago on Edgy, thought for sure i edited it out of menu.lst
[04:10] <Icehawk> at different bitrates
[04:10] <elmajico> kitche: thanks im gonna try removing those, ill be back
[04:10] <Lichnet> dimas_: wat
[04:10] <kitche> elmajico: just go to /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove quiet and splash from your kernel line
[04:11] <madman91> dystopianray: ah.. mencoder is just a wrapper around ffmpeg
[04:11] <dimas_> lichnet i am reading the manual
[04:11] <dystopianray> madman91: yeah most of the tools are
[04:11] <elmajico> kitche: that handles shutdown as well?
[04:11] <kitche> elmajico: what do you mean for shutdown?
[04:11] <Lichnet> dimas_: cya
[04:11] <robersonfox> sorry, my english still no better, but i try
[04:11] <Lichnet> dimas_: ask the others
[04:12] <robersonfox> how i put in my source list the repositorie http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/devel/
[04:12] <Icehawk> dystopian: any ideas why ath0 and wifi0 are showing different traffic stats?
[04:12] <elmajico> kitche: same loading screen shows the bar unloading at shutdown
[04:12] <dimas_> lichnet i installed it but dont know how to work around to unlock the port
[04:12] <robersonfox> i need the monodevelop 0.14
[04:12] <lethologica>  what is the command line for deleting?
[04:12] <elmajico> kitche: rather than all the kill messages or term text
[04:12] <dystopianray> Icehawk: one of them is a virtual interface
[04:12] <h1st0> robersonfox: download it and build it.
[04:12] <kitche> elmajico: that is mostly for bootup, but might work for shutdown also who knows sicne I never seen the splash anyways
[04:12] <weltschmerz> so should i need this ndiswrapper for my dell d410 wifi?
[04:12] <ShackJack> lethologica: man rm
[04:12] <h1st0> robersonfox: or download the deb from gusty via the site you gave
[04:12] <elmajico> kitche: it comes on fesity default
[04:12] <lethologica> ahh thanks
[04:13] <Icehawk> dystopian: ah, getting an idea of whats happening then
[04:13] <robersonfox> h1st0: and the APT
[04:13] <dystopianray> Icehawk: i'd imagine ath0 should show the true rate
[04:13] <tetrimino> ...could really use a cheeseburger right now..
[04:13] <dimas_> lichnet i was about to ask you to Merrie me...but
[04:13] <dystopianray> Icehawk: you can create multiple virtual interfaces to (from what I understand) connect to multiple aps, run multiple aps and do other multiple things
[04:13] <trimmer> I just tried using the live cd, but it took an outrageous amount of time, is that normal?
[04:13] <Icehawk> dystopianray: hmm, didnt knew about that
[04:14] <Icehawk> dystopianray: i suppose wifi0 is showing ath0 rate + overhead
[04:14] <ShackJack> trimmer: yep slower  dep on hardware..
[04:14] <mabus> trimmer:livecd will usually be slower yeah
[04:14] <kitche> trimmer: yes depends on your memory and such you can always use the alternate cd to install
[04:14] <macd_> trimmer, its typically pretty brisk to boot and once its running decently quick
[04:14] <dystopianray> Icehawk: http://madwifi.org/wiki/ngFeatures
[04:14] <tetrimino> alot slower
[04:14] <Icehawk> dystopianray: will read
[04:14] <miscellanea> I just got Warcraft 3 to open running Wine in a command line, However, I can not connect to battle.net. Suggestions?
[04:15] <trimmer> ok thanks...  know of any quicker live cd distros?
[04:15] <Barry> Is there a program i can use to receive SMS messages?
[04:15] <Davy_Jones> miscellanea: is this a pirated version?
[04:15] <miscellanea> No.
[04:15] <macd_> trimmer, they are all about the same to be honest
[04:15] <ShackJack> trimmer: xubuntu?
[04:15] <kitche> miscellanea: check wine's site thye might have a work around
[04:15] <MilitantPotato> I'm on Ubuntu feisty, I can't get teamspeak to open, it worked well two days ago, the only thing I've changed is adding a different login user for Ubuntu.  I get a "starting teamspeak" deal in the panel, but it goes away after 10-15 seconds and teamspeak never loads.
[04:15] <Davy_Jones> miscellanea: there are a couple of guides laying around
[04:16] <Davy_Jones> miscellanea: i never played it so i don't know
[04:16] <tetrimino> miscellanea i had some probs with battlenet too.. but i downloaded the patch rebooted and it worked
[04:16] <trimmer> I'll check out xubuntu...
[04:16] <Icehawk> dystopianray: wait, you basicly can set any number of connections using just 1 interface??
[04:16] <trimmer> thanks again.
[04:16] <miscellanea> tetriminio: know where I can get this patch?
[04:16] <tupa> MilitantPotato, did you run it on terminal to see if it gives you an error?
[04:16] <dystopianray> Icehawk: you create multiple virtual interfaces
[04:16] <Davy_Jones> miscellanea: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[04:16] <antibody> hey all..I got grub-install problem..
[04:16] <antibody> fatal error in install
[04:16] <MilitantPotato> tupa: no, one second
[04:16] <Icehawk> dystopianray: which could be used for different types of connection
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: whats the error.
[04:17] <exyan> anyone know how to get vsync working in aiglx & beryl
[04:17] <exyan> ?
[04:17] <antibody> there's a small ntfs partition in this laptop...is this related?
[04:17] <dystopianray> Icehawk: yes, from what I understand
[04:17] <dystopianray> antibody: grub does not care about filesystems
[04:17] <antibody> IndyGunFreak: the execution of 'grub-install (hd0)' failted
[04:17] <antibody> failed
[04:17] <Count1> hi i need some advice on playing hd videos on linux, when i try to play one with VLC it just glitches
[04:17] <Murchadh> InterNut:
[04:17] <antibody> fatal error(i'm tranlating)
[04:17] <Icehawk> dystopianray: like an AP and P2P network
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: hmm, that doesn't sound good.
[04:17] <antibody> IndyGunFreak: that's what I thought...but...
[04:17] <dystopianray> Count1: what do you mean by 'glitches' and what codec is the video?
[04:18] <antibody> I tried to manually install with chroot
[04:18] <dystopianray> Icehawk: yes, i imagine so
[04:18] <antibody> but..nothing
[04:18] <Icehawk> dystopian: whoa, linux is amazing :)
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: are you still able to get to windows, or does it halt there?
[04:18] <kahrytan> How do I convert Theora to AVI?
[04:18] <Count1> dystopianray: it is very digitalized at points, the audio is out of sync, it is x264
[04:18] <nj786> RickH: you in here?
[04:18] <dystopianray> Count1: it plays fine elsewhere?
[04:18] <antibody> IndyGunFreak: na..no grub..I had windows(eheh unfortunatelly :D) it's my girls lappy
[04:18] <RickH> nj786:  Yup.
[04:18] <Davy_Jones> kahrytan: i don't know but you can search for theora + avi in synaptic
[04:19] <Count1> dystopianray: on windows with VLC yes
[04:19] <RickH> nj786:  Go to #rickh
[04:19] <antibody> mine doesn't have that crap :D
[04:19] <Davy_Jones> kahrytan: or google
[04:19] <kahrytan> Davy_Jones: can't
[04:19] <antibody> IndyGunFreak: I really have no idea
[04:19] <Ashfire908> i'm trying to figure out a way to keep two folders in sync. how do i get rsync to keep them in sync? i have set the sessions up.
[04:19] <antibody> is there anyway of installing lilo?
[04:19] <kahrytan> Davy_Jones: theora aka ogg video
[04:19] <MilitantPotato> tupa: thanks, that helped me sort it out
[04:19] <Davy_Jones> kahrytan: then you're basically outa luck
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: that woudl likely be pointless.
[04:19] <dystopianray> antibody: why would you want to use lilo?
[04:19] <antibody> dunno could be a grub specific problem or so
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: its not grub specific, i think it got stuck ont he wrong partition somehow.
[04:20] <flaccid> anyone know how to make open file or show file work in azureus?
[04:20] <tetrimino> anybody know any dedicated linux radios?
[04:20] <antibody> hmm..but (hd0)
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> well, that should be right.
[04:20] <lethologica> I am having trouble installing compiz-gnome it is stating it can't overwrite libgconf.so, I deleted the file and it still gives the same error
[04:20] <Davy_Jones> tetrimino: why would one need a radio with linux in it?
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> only hard drive, right?
[04:20] <kahrytan> How do I convert Theora to AVI?
[04:20] <kitche> antibody: usually grub-install takes a device name
[04:21] <antibody> should be not partition and mbr
[04:21] <antibody> I tried grub-install /dev/sda
[04:21] <Ashfire908> i'm trying to figure out a way to keep two folders in sync. how do i get rsync to keep them in sync? i have set the sessions up.
[04:21] <kitche> antibody: sudo grub-install?
[04:21] <tetrimino> davy_jones i mean like a radio for linux users with somekind of a communty bound to it
[04:21] <flaccid> there is one tetrimino
[04:21] <antibody> kitche: with chroot or in install root?
[04:21] <tetrimino> davy like stations for online games
[04:21] <tetrimino> flaccid yeah?
[04:21] <Davy_Jones> tetrimino: i doubt it, but it doesn't hurt to google
[04:22] <File13> so that 20 gigs i formatted in fat32 as the share partition it shows up on windows but not under linux
 np
[04:22] <kitche> antibody: either or but if your not root you need to use sudo to use grub-install
[04:22] <ShackJack> tetrimino: Exaile has the shoutcast stations... lots of different stuff...
[04:22] <kitche> File13: well your /etc/fstab probably doesn't have it
[04:22] <MilitantPotato> tupa: I lied, ending it's process worked once, now it hangs in terminal trying to load, no errors
[04:22] <tetrimino> shack gotta check it out
[04:22] <antibody> install_device not specified
[04:23] <antibody> going to spec /dev/sda
[04:23] <antibody> oh..
[04:23] <kahrytan> How do I convert Theora (ogg video) to AVI?
[04:23] <antibody> ok
[04:23] <Count1> dystopianray: hello?
[04:23] <antibody> I need chroot
[04:23] <File13> so how would i go about getting to to be recognized by ubuntu
[04:23] <antibody> and to mount /dev /proc in it
[04:23] <dystopianray> Count1: I do not know how to solve your issue
[04:23] <tupa> MilitantPotato so no error message?
[04:23] <Ashfire908> how do i get rsync to keep folders in sync? do i have to set up a cron?
[04:23] <MilitantPotato> tupa: no
[04:24] <flaccid> lugradio
[04:24] <flaccid> tetrimino: ^
[04:24] <tetrimino> yeah
[04:24] <bruenig> Ashfire908, yes unless you want to execute the command yourself periodically
[04:24] <tetrimino> thanks
[04:24] <lethologica> I am having trouble installing compiz-gnome it is stating it can't overwrite libgconf.so which is also in compiz-plugins, I deleted the file and it still gives the same error. ANy ideas what to do?
[04:24] <flaccid> http://www.lugradio.org/
[04:24] <antibody> how do I mount /dev and proc?
[04:24] <antibody> mount -t udev udevfs /target/dev?
[04:24] <antibody> long time with ubuntu ..lol
[04:25] <bruenig> lethologica, deleting the file doesn't matter, it is looking at the package database not the actual filesystem
[04:25] <dystopianray> antibody: mount --bind /dev/ /target/dev
[04:25] <cool> hai
[04:25] <Ashfire908> how do i set up a cron to run a program every x minutes?
[04:25] <antibody> I tried -o bind
[04:25] <antibody> :D
[04:25] <antibody> tehehe
[04:25] <Ashfire908> wait
[04:25] <flaccid> !cron
[04:25] <ubotu> cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[04:25] <lethologica> bruenig, what should I do then? Why does it point to that file, that seems senseless
[04:25] <tetrimino> whats the big differents between ubuntu and debian? cause if its almost the same im going for debian
[04:25] <MilitantPotato> tupa: mmm wait, i'm a tard, it was on a different workspace
[04:25] <dystopianray> tetrimino: ubuntu is significantly easier to use for desktop systems and includes some non-free software
[04:25] <flaccid> tetrimino: later versions of packages coz of release cycle
[04:25] <bruenig> lethologica, #ubuntu-effects
[04:26] <kitche> tetrimino: ubuntu is more desktop debian is more poweruser you can pretty muvch say
[04:26] <tetrimino> so you wouldn't recommend debian?
[04:26] <flaccid> debian is my choice for linux server, but i hate the apace implementation
[04:26] <flaccid> apache
[04:26] <kitche> tetrimino: it's up to the user to decide what to use
[04:26] <antibody>  grub-install /dev/sda
[04:26] <antibody> The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
[04:27] <dystopianray> tetrimino: it depends on your specific needs
[04:27] <tetrimino> yeah ofcourse kitche just dont wanna make a decision im gonna regret
[04:27] <Count1> anyone know how i could play hd x264 video without it glitching?
[04:27] <kitche> antibody: do this grub at the cli
[04:27] <flaccid> tetrimino: what is the role of this computer?
[04:27] <kitche> antibody: then root (hd0,X) where X os where your / is
[04:27] <flaccid> cool
[04:28] <antibody> hmm..it's in the 3rd partition
[04:28] <kitche> antibody: then setup (hd0) then type in exit then try sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[04:28] <Count1> /joing #fedora
[04:28] <flaccid> 0,2 probably
[04:28] <weltschmerz> i have an intel 2200bg wireless card in my laptop.  anyone know what driver that requires?
[04:28] <antibody> y I know 0,2
[04:28] <flaccid> Weiss: ipw2200
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> antibody: lol, how did that happen?
[04:28] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: it works out of the box
[04:28] <antibody> after root
[04:28] <antibody> (inside grub app)
[04:29] <kitche> antibody: yes root (hd0,2)
[04:29] <flaccid> weltschmerz: should work out of box
[04:29] <antibody> nothin
[04:29] <flaccid> usually
[04:29] <antibody> grub command line again
[04:29] <kitche> antibody: ok now do setup (hd0)
[04:29] <flaccid> weltschmerz: lsmod | grep ipw2200
[04:29] <egomaniac> Can someone tell me how to install flash
[04:29] <antibody>  setup (hd0)
[04:29] <antibody> Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[04:29] <flaccid> !flash
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> !flash | egomaniac
[04:29] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[04:29] <antibody> I already had tried setup (hd0,2) didn't work
[04:29] <ubotu> egomaniac: please see above
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> well, now you're getting flash errors
[04:30] <kitche> antibody: did you run grub with sudo powers?
[04:30] <pawan> how to compile rpm.bin file

[04:31] <pawan> i download java runtime which is in rpm.bin format
[04:31] <weltschmerz> lol
[04:31] <antibody> could it be that it's hd1?
[04:31] <weltschmerz> how?
[04:31] <pawan> now i want to install it
[04:31] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: does network-manager show the wireless interface?
[04:31] <weltschmerz> sudo ifconfig eth0?
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: you can't
[04:31] <ShackJack> !wifi | weltschmerz
[04:31] <ubotu> weltschmerz: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:31] <antibody> na its sda
[04:31] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: use network-manager
[04:31] <NigelS> pawan: java is in the repos
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: you need to either download the source and compile it(bad idea), or install it from the repos(good idea)
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> !java | pawan
[04:32] <ubotu> pawan: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:32] <kitche> antibody:  well technially you don't have to be chrooted in to use grub it's not like lilo
[04:32] <egomaniac> i get this message

[04:32] <egomaniac> well how do i know if i can use it
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: you're using 64bit
[04:32] <egomaniac> oh
[04:32] <weltschmerz> which network manager, returns nothing.
[04:32] <egomaniac> so i cant get flash at all?
[04:32] <kitche> egomaniac: get nspluginwrapper
[04:32] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: are you using feisty?
[04:33] <egomaniac> where is that from kitche?
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: well, it requires hoop jumping
[04:33] <antibody> kitche: y..but I tried both
[04:33] <weltschmerz> dystopianray yup.
[04:33] <kitche> egomaniac: it should be in the repos
[04:33] <dystopianray> weltschmerz: you already have it
[04:33] <egomaniac> hmmm
[04:33] <egomaniac> ok

[04:33] <weltschmerz> oh!!!
[04:33] <weltschmerz> wow.
[04:33] <kitche> antibody: I m thinking do you have boot on a sperate partition?
[04:33] <antibody> no
[04:33] <weltschmerz> there are millions.  i live in san francisco on a steep hill. :)
[04:33] <jetscreamer> apt-cache search java |grep sun  install

[04:33] <flaccid> !java | pawan
[04:33] <ubotu> pawan: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:33] <weltschmerz> i have 50 or so wireless networks available. :)
[04:33] <antibody> in this order
[04:34] <kitche> antibody: ok then try this setup (sd0)
[04:34] <flaccid> weltschmerz: w0a hectic
[04:34] <dystopianray> pawan: do you want the jre or jdk?
[04:34] <kitche> antibody: does that error out for you?
[04:34] <pawan> jre
[04:34] <dystopianray> pawan: 5 or 6?
[04:34] <antibody> kitche: with what in root?
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:34] <egomaniac> i searched for nspluginwrapper in the synaptic package manager, but nothing comes up
[04:34] <pawan> latest
[04:34] <kitche> antibody: but does setup (sd0) error out for you at all?
[04:34] <dystopianray> pawan: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre

[04:34] <antibody> y
[04:35] <Stuart_99> Hi everyone, got a bit of a problem.  I have a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ core, but when I use either the 32 bit or 64 bit Ubuntu, I can't load into X or a prompt.  I get "Permission Denied" in 32 bit and a different error message in 64 bit.  Can anyone help?  Thanks
[04:35] <antibody> setup (sd0)
[04:35] <antibody> Error 23: Error while parsing number
[04:35] <Davy_Jones> ndiswrapper
[04:35] <dystopianray> pawan: and if you want the browser plugin: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[04:35] <blankthemuffin> Hey does anyone know a command to invoke the installer from a ubuntu live cd, the alternate installer is not an option.
[04:35] <kitche> antibody: ok brb for a sec
[04:35] <dystopianray> blankthemuffin: click the icon on the desktop
[04:35] <antibody> :p
[04:35] <jetscreamer> it's a weird name... damn
[04:35] <blankthemuffin> I can't
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> blankthemuffin: why not?
[04:35] <jetscreamer> umbiquity?
[04:35] <jetscreamer> something like that
[04:35] <blankthemuffin> I'm on 256 mag or ram and it wont work
[04:35] <ThrobbingBrain_> ubuquity
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> blankthemuffin: then you need the alternate install cd
[04:36] <egomaniac> after i install ndiswrapper, then what
[04:36] <flaccid> !alternate
[04:36] <ubotu> 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
[04:36] <ThrobbingBrain_> ubiquity* sorry
[04:36] <robersonfox> hey guys, i hav the link http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/devel/monodevelop, how i put it my source list to upgrade using my APT
[04:36] <h1st0> jetscreamer: ubiquity?
[04:36] <blankthemuffin> the alternate installer is not an option.
[04:36] <dystopianray> blankthemuffin: why?
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> blankthemuffin: well, then you don't need ubuntu
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> blankthemuffin: hold on, i'll pull a bunny out of my hat, and then make your live cd work
[04:37] <ShackJack> blankthemuffin: Why can'r you click on icon - does the mouse not work?
[04:37] <blankthemuffin> all I want to know is what program the desktop icon opens?
[04:37] <ShackJack> blankthemuffin: you can right click and see props for that...
[04:37] <ThrobbingBrain_> blankthemuffin: ubiquity
[04:37] <egomaniac> ok so i install ndiswrapper
[04:37] <egomaniac> do i have flash now?
[04:37] <Stuart_99> I wish I knew why I can't even boot into an Ubuntu disk...AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ CPU...NVIDIA GeForce graphics...
[04:37] <jetscreamer> h1st0: something like that i forget
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: i think you ahve to install a 32bit browser, then install 32bit plugins inside 32bit browser.. but not sure.
[04:38] <blankthemuffin> Stuart_99, you got dvd version and no dvd player?
[04:38] <egomaniac> heh why is this stuff so complicated
[04:38] <Stuart_99> 32 bit CD gives "Permission denied" error and 64 bit gives "User not known to the underlying authentication module"
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: because you downloaded a complicated version of ubuntu
[04:38] <kitche> antibody: well setup (hd0) should install grub to mbr of hda that's why I figured sd0 would work but guess not
[04:38] <Stuart_99> I have a DVD burner/reader
[04:38] <egomaniac> is Xubuntu any easier?
[04:38] <Stuart_99> that's not the issue
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: had you downloaded 32bit, this would take about 15sec
[04:38] <antibody> hmm
[04:38] <NimRod> Does anyone know if I can set up ubuntu to work with aol dialup?
[04:38] <kitche> egomaniac: not ndiswrapper nspluginwrapper
[04:38] <Stuart_99> I get errors when I try and boot
[04:38] <antibody> thing is..cdrom and hd might be twisted
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: its not ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu, its i386, vs 64bit
[04:38] <egomaniac> i searched nspluginwrapper
[04:38] <antibody> or sometin
[04:38] <egomaniac> nothing came up
[04:38] <antibody> I can't find the cdrom in dmesg
[04:38] <egomaniac> oh
[04:38] <egomaniac> which version should I download?
[04:38] <dystopianray> NimRod: you'll need a driver for your modem
[04:39] <Stuart_99> There's an Ubuntu DVD?
[04:39] <egomaniac> i download i386
[04:39] <ShackJack> Stuart_99: You need to be more specific... what errors
[04:39] <kitche> antibody: I had to grab my LFS book to make sure
[04:39] <dystopianray> Stuart_99: yes
[04:39] <egomaniac> at least i think

[04:39] <CoasterMaster> Hi.  My Dell laptop freezes with a black screen (forcing me to reboot) when suspending (the system does not turn off).  It was working at one point, but I don't know what I did to break it.  I just re-formatted my hard drive, so I'm running a fresh Ubuntu 7.04 installation, but suspend still doesn't work.  Nothing on Google has helped me.  Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.
[04:39] <egomaniac> sorry
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: i think you downloaded 64bit.
[04:39] <antibody> y I can't get my cdrom device
[04:39] <dystopianray> CoasterMaster: what video card?
[04:39] <antibody> from dmesg
[04:39] <Stuart_99> 32 bit CD gives "Permission denied" error and 64 bit gives "User not known to the underlying authentication module"
[04:39] <kitche> egomaniac: you would have to compile nspluginwrapper then
[04:39] <egomaniac> Yea um do you know what Wubi is? It's an installer for Ubuntu
[04:39] <Stuart_99> I tried both forms of Ubuntu 7.04
[04:39] <antibody> probably because it's booting from it
[04:39] <egomaniac> does that download the 64bit
[04:40] <egomaniac> because thats what i downloaded
[04:40] <ShackJack> CoasterMaster: I can get suspend to work on any of my installs (runnign Gutsy though)
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> apparent.u
[04:40] <CoasterMaster> dystopian: ATI Radeon X300
[04:40] <NimRod> dystopianray: im more worried about the aol client software
[04:40] <Stuart_99> any ideas on how to fix?
[04:40] <Ashfire908> how do i use gedit for crontab -e
[04:40] <kitche> antibody: it's probably /dev/hdc
[04:40] <noldon> i need help my computer died during a fsck on one of my harddrive and now cant linux find it
[04:40] <kitche> antibody: unless you have one of those sata cdrom drives
[04:40] <dystopianray> CoasterMaster: i'd say the ATI video is your problem
[04:40] <noldon> but bios find it
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: open a terminal, and type           uname -a     and tell us what the output is
[04:41] <Stuart_99> can't boot into ubuntu....32 bit CD gives "Permission denied" error and 64 bit gives "User not known to the underlying authentication module..." AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ CPU and NVIDIA graphics
[04:41] <antibody> kitche: could be
[04:41] <flaccid> Ashfire908: export EDITOR=`which gedit`
[04:41] <ShackJack> Stuart_99: You got some kind of hardware level BIOS pw protection on drives maybe?
[04:41] <antibody> kitche: actually in my hold lappy my hd was hdc and cdrom hda
[04:41] <Stuart_99> no PW protection on the drives

[04:41] <triada> Hi does someone know of a software that re-aligns scanned images automaticly? Hnmm?
[04:41] <flaccid> Ashfire908: actually thats gui, don't think you can do that
[04:41] <CoasterMaster> dystopian: is there a work around or a solution that you know of?
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> freakin morons
[04:41] <antibody> but I think it's all sata..this one
[04:41] <antibody> it's a sony vaio
[04:41] <ShackJack> Stuart_99: Sounds like it - some weird setting in the BIOS....
[04:41] <antibody> I couldn't find a guide for it
[04:41] <kitche> antibody: it might be /dev/hda though if your on a sata system
[04:41] <egomaniac> ok, indy
[04:41] <dystopianray> CoasterMaster: don't use ATI
[04:41] <Stuart_99> The BIOS is propietary...Compaq...
[04:41] <Ashfire908> falccid, what do i type?
[04:41] <dystopianray> CoasterMaster: it might be some other issue, I don't know
[04:41] <Stuart_99> although I have installed other distros of linux before
[04:42] <dystopianray> CoasterMaster: I hve a dell inspiron 6000 with intel graphics, suspend/hibernate works perfectly directly after install

[04:42] <triada> Hi does someone know of a software that re-aligns scanned images automaticly? Hnmm?
[04:42] <egomaniac> oops
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: lol, yes, uname -a
[04:42] <egomaniac> IndyGunFreak: Linux ubuntu 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:42] <dystopianray> egomaniac: you have a 32-bit ubuntu
[04:42] <Stuart_99> I've searched the forums and my problem is unique
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, thats 32bit
[04:42] <phixxor> hey guys I am repartitioning my hdd, and I am wondering what separate partitions you might recommend I make. I already have /home (ext3) and /boot (ext2), and two reiserfs partitions I will put 64bit ubuntu and 32 bit ubuntu on
[04:42] <Stuart_99> no idea on how to fix
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: what are you trying to do again, install flash?
[04:43] <Ashfire908> falccid, do i type crontab -e export EDITOR=`which gedit`
[04:43] <antibody> damn ..can't find a way in this
[04:43] <flaccid> Ashfire908: export EDITOR=`which gedit` && crontab -e
[04:43] <egomaniac> IndyGunFreak: yes, trying to install flash player to view youtube videos
[04:43] <kitche> egomaniac: then just install flash that note is just more of a warning then anything
[04:43] <dystopianray> phixxor: why install ubuntu twice?
[04:43] <flaccid> Ashfire908: but im not sure if using a gui editor will work, give it a try
[04:43] <ShackJack> Stuart_99: Sure CD is good - ran check on it?
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> egomaniac: type this without quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[04:43] <Stuart_99> I ran the check....it crashed
[04:43] <ShackJack> egomaniac: on Firefox?
[04:43] <Stuart_99> both disks crasshed on disk check
[04:44] <phixxor> dystopianray: 64 is faster but 32 is more compatible in some cases.
[04:44] <Stuart_99> disks meaning 32 bit and 64 bit
[04:44] <dystopianray> phixxor: 64-bit is not faster
[04:44] <dystopianray> phixxor: in many cases it will be slower
[04:44] <dystopianray> phixxor: high number != better
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> dystopianray: but it makes you far more l33t, even if you can't use flash!
[04:44] <phixxor> dystopianray: compile times are faster
[04:44] <flaccid> Ashfire908: actually i tested it with kate and it works
[04:44] <ShackJack> Mmmm... that's weird -- sound very hardware related... maybe try burn iso's on slower speed?
[04:44] <phixxor> IndyGunFreak: you can use flash
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> phixxor: with necessary hoop jumping
[04:44] <lethologica> I am running compiz and I lost my title bars
[04:44] <Ashfire908> flaccid, it opened gedit
[04:45] <phixxor> dystopianray: what's the point of having 64 bit processor without the os?
[04:45] <ShackJack> lethologica: see #ubuntu-effects
[04:45] <lethologica> they are empty
[04:45] <phixxor> dystopianray: for folding@gnome :D
[04:45] <flaccid> cool Ashfire908 now just edit your cron and close and save
[04:45] <ShackJack> lethologica: Be patient... or check #compiz-fusion...
[04:45] <dystopianray> phixxor: 32-bit is faster at folding@home
[04:45] <flaccid> it should say crontab: installing new crontab or something and then you can use crontab -l
[04:45] <dystopianray> phixxor: the main benefit of 64-bit is the ability to use huge amounts of memory
[04:45] <phixxor> why is that?
[04:46] <lethologica> noone is on compiz-fusion, I asked a question about 20 minutes ago, noone responded
[04:46] <dragophoenixfire> I am trying to setup imq, i just got unknown symbol 's in iptables, has anyone here setup imq successfully? if so which versions of kernel's/patches/iptables did you use?
[04:46] <phixxor> dystopianray: I mean, why is folding faster in 32?
[04:46] <File13> So the fat32 partition shows up in windows and not in Ubuntu, how do i go about getting ubuntu to recognize it
[04:46] <dystopianray> phixxor: a variety of reasons, one is that many 32-bit apps have hand coded 32-bit assembly for mmx/sse/etc.. while 64-bit version do not have it and rely on generic C implementations
[04:46] <phixxor> dystopianray: the 64 bit os makes better use of the dual cores though, so I heard
[04:46] <kitche> File13: gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[04:46] <antibody> :D
[04:47] <dystopianray> phixxor: 64-bit has nothing to do with dual core
[04:47] <ShackJack> lethologica: Log out and back in again for titles :)
[04:47] <File13> is that a command?
[04:47] <kitche> antibody: well I helped you to the point you just need to figure out why it's failing :)
[04:47] <kitche> File13: yes
[04:47] <File13> ok
[04:47] <antibody> kitche: :/
[04:47] <antibody> y
[04:47] <antibody> lol
[04:47] <phixxor> dystopianray: Does 64 at least use memory more efficiently?
[04:47] <antibody> there's a small ntfs partition(probably a restore one)
[04:47] <dick-richardson> I have a dell 600m laptop that will randomly lockup. I get a cpu soft lockup error on tty1. The system will hang for roughly 10 seconds and then I get 2 seconds where i can use it. Any suggestions?
[04:47] <Ashfire908> flaccid, crontab reported it installed successfully
[04:47] <dystopianray> phixxor: no, it generally uses more memory
[04:47] <antibody> in the beggining of the disk
[04:47] <dystopianray> phixxor: all your pointers are suddenly twice as large
[04:47] <flaccid> Ashfire908: cool. i never knew a gui would work, thats handy
[04:47] <dystopianray> phixxor: although you can have much more memory
[04:48] <Stuart_> Ok (Stuart_99 here), I unplugged my computer from the wall for a bit, and am tryign to boot ubuntu again (32 bit)...it's loading
[04:48] <dystopianray> phixxor: >4GB with hacks like PAE
[04:48] <dystopianray> phixxor: with = without
[04:48] <shmeebegek> anyone got a little time? I just installed and have two issues
[04:48] <Ashfire908> flaccid, i double-checked the file, it has what a wrote in it
[04:48] <phixxor> dystopianray: so basically, the only thing I gain is that if the world switches to 64 bit, I won't have to buy a new processor
[04:48] <dragophoenixfire> shmeebegek?

[04:49] <dystopianray> phixxor: other than that, the benefits are minimal and there are more disadvantages
[04:49] <r0b-> !ssh
[04:49] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[04:49] <Nutubuntu> Can anyone recommend a web browser that doesn't crash more than one or two times an hour?
[04:49] <kitche> r0b-: not if you don't run a domain or something
[04:49] <dystopianray> Nutubuntu: lynx
[04:49] <shmeebegek> I've tried googling it a bit.. not getting much of use
[04:49] <flaccid> Nutubuntu: most dont do that
[04:49] <phixxor> dystopianray: yeah, the cpu seems to be more of a bottleneck than the memory anyway
[04:49] <r0b-> ok
[04:49] <r0b-> :)
[04:50] <pawan> cant display fonts in xmms player
[04:50] <shmeebegek> my sound came through my microphone jack when I installed Mac OSX, as well
[04:50] <r0b-> well kitche it comes from my home
[04:50] <dystopianray> phixxor: basically, unless you have very special needs, it's recommended to stick with 32-bit
[04:50] <Stuart_> I'm going to scan for defects...
[04:50] <Ashfire908> can i put a non-64 bit video card into a 64 bit slot?
[04:50] <kitche> r0b-: probably not my domain used to get hammered with ssh brute force attacks
[04:50] <phixxor> I wish I knew that before I bought it last christmas
[04:50] <dick-richardson> it's killing me...XP shouldn't run more stable than ubuntu :(
[04:50] <Ashfire908> yes i know it's a stupid question
[04:50] <dystopianray> Ashfire908:  a pci video card into a pci-x slot?
[04:50] <Nutubuntu> lynx sounds like it might be my best bet ;P  Firefox / Swiftfox seem to blow up more often than the last bits of a DieHard movie
[04:51] <Ashfire908> it's a server type 64 bit slot
[04:51] <flaccid> Ashfire908: if its the same type of slot and it supports backward compat then yes
[04:51] <kitche> phixxor: well 64-bit will get a boost here real quick sicne amd is releasing a pure 64bit proc
[04:51] <Ashfire908> yes, pci
[04:51] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: CHeck out alsamixer (terminal)-- mute all but PCM and Master
[04:51] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: ok, so pci-x, I beleive it is backwards compatible
[04:51] <Ashfire908> uh
[04:51] <Stuart_> ok...scan didn't crash this time but it is underway
[04:51] <dragophoenixfire> w
[04:51] <Ashfire908> the server is from 2001
[04:51] <poningru> whut?
[04:51] <Ashfire908> the slots are pci64
[04:51] <Ashfire908> *bit
[04:52] <poningru> Ashfire908: whats wrong?
[04:52] <Ashfire908> the viedo card sucks.
[04:52] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: yes, they are pci-x slots
[04:52] <poningru> Ashfire908: yes you can
[04:52] <phixxor> kitche: neat, so things will be optimised for 64
[04:52] <Ashfire908> ok, thanks
[04:52] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: and as far as I'm aware, pci-x is backwards compatible with pci
[04:52] <phixxor> less generic code and emulation
[04:52] <Ashex> anyone know of a video player that will adjust the sound track to sync with video?
[04:52] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: pci-x is not the same as pci express btw
[04:52] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: What's the difference between Master M and Master?
[04:52] <Ashex> as in, offset the audio from the video?
[04:52] <Ashfire908> just to note, the slots are a lot bigger...
[04:52] <poningru> Ashex: well in mplayer you can do it
[04:52] <dick-richardson> noone can help troubleshoot random soft lockups?
[04:52] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Not sure --- ask be about Mastah P ... :)
[04:53] <poningru> dick-richardson: when is it happening?
[04:53] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: it should be like a normal pci slot, but with an additional connector bit
[04:53] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: Okay I've muted all except Master and PCM
[04:53] <kitche> phixxor: they might be but anyways it's offtopic :)
[04:53] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: pci cards won't fill the whole slot
[04:53] <Ashex> poningru: for some reason I can't get the video to play in mplayer
[04:53] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Working?
[04:53] <Ashfire908> k
[04:53] <Ashex> gives an video out error
[04:53] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: Well I hear the music through the microphone port yes
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> lol, music through the mic port, thats interesting
[04:53] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: I have headphones plugged into the microphone port
[04:53] <phixxor> kitche: true, lol, the question I asked originally didn't get much attention
[04:54] <dick-richardson> poningru: it's random...I haven't been able to identify an occurence - either temp or user initiated
[04:54] <poningru> Ashex: rm -r ~/.mplayer
[04:54] <Stuart_> my CD has errors!!!!!
[04:54] <Ashfire908> is there any chance it will destroy the pci card?
[04:54] <Stuart_> :(
[04:54] <poningru> dick-richardson: that sounds like a mem problem
[04:54] <Stuart_> redownload time
[04:54] <poningru> does this happen with windows?
[04:54] <File13> ok i did that gksu command and it failed then opened a fstab txt document
[04:54] <Ashex> poningru: I still get the error
[04:54] <poningru> next time you bootup press escape at grub
[04:54] <dystopianray> Ashfire908: there is always that chance, even with 100% compatible hardware
[04:54] <dick-richardson> poningru: no, runs fine in XP...memtest gives it the thumbs up after running over the weekend last weekend
[04:54] <poningru> hmm
[04:55] <Stuart_> thanks for your time, I'm going to redownload Ubuntu and see if I can get an error-free copy :)
[04:55] <poningru> then it sounds like a heat problem
[04:55] <flaccid> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component_Interconnect
[04:55] <poningru> what proc do you have?
[04:55] <ShackJack> Stuart_I knew It :)
[04:55] <dick-richardson> 1.8ghz pentium m
[04:55] <Ashfire908> how do i set the gid and permissions for everything in a folder?
[04:55] <Stuart_> ok - thnx for ur help
[04:55] <poningru> dick-richardson: does that scale automagically?
[04:55] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: In sound prefs - is Sound capture set to none?
[04:55] <Ashex> poningru: running mplayer from command-line works for the video, using the gui version does not
[04:55] <pano101rain> nic card is possible problem if wireless and having random lockup
[04:55] <File13> it shows up under the fstab txt document type thing though
[04:55] <dick-richardson> turning cpu frequency stepping off in the bios (locking it to 600 mhz) doesn't fix it, either
[04:55] <poningru> Ashex: oh yeah g-mplayer sucks
[04:56] <poningru> dont use it
[04:56] <Ashex> I'll just take a look at the man and do it through command-line
[04:56] <flaccid> !permissions
[04:56] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[04:56] <poningru> use the command line
[04:56] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: It is set to ALSA
[04:56] <Ashex> Yeah, I avoid, usually just do it through cli
[04:56] <poningru> dick-richardson: hmm
[04:56] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: shall I set it to Silence?
[04:56] <flaccid> Ashfire908: do it in gui. or use chgrp, chmod, chown etc.
[04:56] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Set to none and test... then test playback
[04:56] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: When I hit test on playback I hear it through the mic jack
[04:56] <poningru> dick-richardson: everythign is updated I am assuming
[04:56] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: when I hit test capture I hear nothing
[04:57] <poningru> dick-richardson: do you have any weird hardware?
[04:57] <poningru> err I realize thats an ambigious question...
[04:57] <r0b-> oh damn i just found a neat way to proxyt
[04:57] <ShackJack> Try other options under playback and test... but you might have better luck in #alsa chat...
[04:57] <r0b-> proxy via SSH
[04:57] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: ^^^^
[04:57] <dick-richardson> poningru: nothing too odd...I have put in a samsung hard drive, no-name ram, a 2nd-hand dell dvd burner
[04:57] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: ???
[04:58] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: I vaguely remember seeing something similar - you have to edit config file, etc...
[04:58] <dick-richardson> i put in the ipw2200 chip
[04:58] <flaccid> proxy via vpn is better :)
[04:58] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: See above....
[04:58] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: Above..
[04:58] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: ??
[04:58] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[04:58] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: Are you telling me to google it or something? :-p
[04:58] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Look **up***
[04:59] <chikita> !sound
[04:59] <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).

[04:59] <Taco`> wow lol
[04:59] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Nevermind --- dunno how else to say................
[04:59] <Taco`> ShackJack: that even made me look up :D
[04:59] <ShackJack> Taco`: :)
[04:59] <flaccid> im off
[04:59] <phixxor> so what directories should preferably live on their own partitions?
[04:59] <jetscreamer> [21.57.47]  <ShackJack> Try other options under playback and test... but you might have better luck in #alsa chat...
[05:00] <shmeebegek> up could mean scroll up or look at the help bar
[05:00] <shmeebegek> or many other things :-p
[05:00] <jetscreamer> that works for me
[05:00] <phixxor> like /home, /boot, /etc
[05:00] <jetscreamer> how about you
[05:00] <Asche_> Got an error that I have no clue what is it.  Any one think they could help me out with it?
[05:00] <dick-richardson> phxxor: I like /home on it's own partition
[05:00] <phixxor> anything else?
[05:00] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: see what jetscreamer said -- scroll up...
[05:00] <jetscreamer> i said nothing :)
[05:00] <shmeebegek> I also have an issue whereby it sees my wireless network, but when I attempt to connect it says I have 0% signal strength
[05:00] <dick-richardson> phixxor: nothing I can think of
[05:00] <shmeebegek> and I am never assigned an IP
[05:01] <ShackJack> jetscreamer: Sorry, what you repeated --- jeezus what;s with the semantics?
[05:01] <jetscreamer> it was a joke
[05:01] <madman91> how can i see _very_ specific video details about .avis and .mkvs? .. i mean all the codec, fps, resolution, stuff
[05:01] <phixxor> dick-richardson: alright, just doublechecking
[05:01] <jetscreamer> -_-
[05:01] <Asche_> Got an error that I have no clue what is it.  Any one think they could help me out with it?
[05:01] <zerolink> has anyone got the prc-tools , and the essential palmosDEV packages installed in 64bit?
[05:01] <jetscreamer> !ask
[05:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:01] <astro76> phixxor, /home is very convenient to have separate, after that I usually separate /tmp and /var, but not extremely necessary there
[05:01] <Ashfire908> i need to chmod 777 and chgrp 100 everything (files and folders) that is not gid 100
[05:01] <Ashfire908> via command line
[05:01] <choudesh> Asche_, what is it?
[05:01] <jetscreamer> what group is 100
[05:01] <phixxor> astro76: can two distros share a /home and a /boot?
[05:01] <jetscreamer> you might mean 1000
[05:01] <Ashfire908> users
[05:01] <Asche_> choudesh: Errors were encountered while processing:
[05:01] <Asche_>  clvm
[05:01] <Asche_>  redhat-cluster-suite

[05:01] <jetscreamer> ah
[05:02] <jetscreamer> man chmod?

[05:02] <Asche_> choudesh: I was trying to install wine and that's what it gave me.
[05:02] <py_geek> All- hey, I'm trying to install itunes with wine, but it's not working... so what would be a good mp3 player for my computer?
[05:02] <Asche_> choudesh: sorry, forgot about that.
[05:02] <zerolink> prc-tools for 64bit ?? please pvt
[05:02] <choudesh> Asche_, no prob. ;-)
[05:02] <Ashfire908> i know how to chmod and chgrp, but how do i set the files and folders to set?
[05:02] <jetscreamer> Ashfire908: just add -R
[05:03] <phixxor> py_geek: you've got plenty of choices - I like audacious and amarok
[05:03] <choudesh> xtknight, are you around?
[05:03] <jetscreamer> if you want all downlevel
[05:03] <madman91> how do i view very specific codec/resolution/framerate stuff about movies? a program specific for it
[05:03] <ShackJack> py_geek: I like Exaile SVN  exaile.org
[05:03] <xtknight> choudesh, yes
[05:03] <choudesh> xtknight, pm?
[05:03] <xtknight> choudesh, ok
[05:03] <Ashfire908> i only want to chgrp and chmod tings that are not group users
[05:03] <xtknight> oops wrong button
[05:03] <xtknight> choudesh, go ahead
[05:03] <jetscreamer> man chmod dude
[05:04] <dick-richardson> poningru: it's annoying enough that I wrote a script that checks dmesg for the error and auto reboots my machine, then put it in cron to run every minute
[05:04] <Ashfire908> that are NOT set to group users
[05:05] <shmeebegek> I've found this thread ( http://www.mepis.org/node/5852 ) that seems to have something to do with my problem
[05:05] <shmeebegek> not sure if that helps anyone
[05:05] <Asche_> choudesh: so how do I get rid of that error?
[05:05] <dick-richardson> shmeebegek: are you running mepis?
[05:05] <shmeebegek> I have a Gateway M675, and sound only comes through the mic port
[05:05] <shmeebegek> dick-richardson: no I'm not
[05:05] <tupa> is there anyone that programms with Qt?, how do I change the color of the text in a QPushButton
[05:06] <astro76> phixxor, /boot doubtful, if you had a separate one it would be small anyway, so why bother
[05:06] <dick-richardson> shmeebegek: I know, sorry :/ poor attempt at humor
[05:06] <andyho623> ugh... why won't my stupid headphones work?!?
[05:06] <choudesh> Asche_, what is the pastebin link?
[05:06] <shmeebegek> dick-richardson: It seems to happen with any alternative OS, OSX did it too

[05:06] <Asche_> choudesh: hold on a sec and I'll get it.
[05:06] <phixxor> astro76: from what I've heard, it helps when you have many oses on your system
[05:06] <choudesh> dick-richardson, other way around. ;-)
[05:07] <_W_> heh is the xchat-GNOME app supposed to join this channel completely automatically when it starts up? Missfeature imo
[05:07] <shmeebegek> does anyone know what configuration files I should be poking around in?
[05:07] <dick-richardson> choudesh: ? I'm confused
[05:07] <shmeebegek> I don't even know where to start
[05:07] <phixxor> astro76: and if I accidently reformat one of them (d'oh) then at least the others will still work
[05:07] <choudesh> dick-richardson, I needed a link to his pastebin post.

[05:07] <madman91> what is a good .. "advanced metadata grabber" for videos.. i want every little detail about a movie file
[05:07] <jetscreamer> you would need to script that probably Ashfire908 ... /join #bash maybe

[05:13] <poningru> ok what hardware do you have again?
[05:13] <nickrud> phixxor, amd64 and i386 use the same name for the kernel, so I'd keep them in separate /boots

[05:15] <nickrud> phixxor, yes
[05:15] <berent> having sound problems from past two after updating bios
[05:15] <phixxor> nickrud: I might as well only install one or the other then

[05:15] <pawan> xmms player problem http://img120.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotmi2.png
[05:16] <phixxor> with 1 gb of ram, am I actually gaining anything by using 64 bit?
[05:16] <andyho623> mines just my headphones wont work.. I have sound through my speakers though :/
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: whats the problem, navigate to the file you want to play
[05:16] <nickrud> phixxor, iirc having separate boots is a holdover from lilo, when it needed to be near the beginning of the disk; grub simply doesn't care. I have/had both, I just let each have it's own boot directory
[05:16] <pawan> i cant see the tab names
[05:16] <dick-richardson> poningru: I have a 1.8 ghz pentium m, 60gb samsung drive, 1gb stick of crucial with another 512 stick of...something. ipw2200 wifi card, dell dvd burner
[05:16] <berent> anyone???/
[05:17] <phixxor> nickrud: alright
[05:17] <phixxor> nickrud: I thought it was so you could repartition things and not have to reinstall grub each time
[05:17] <andyho623> i swear i'm gonna strangle my mother if i dont get these headphones working LOL
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:17] <choudesh> Asche_, and the output of `sudo apt-get -f install`
[05:17] <phixxor> as long as you keep the /boot partition safe
[05:17] <dick-richardson> poningru: it's an inspiron 600m
[05:18] <nickrud> phixxor, sounds like another reasonable reason. grub-install is pretty simple though
[05:18] <berent> !nvidia > me
[05:18] <andyho623> hey how's it going indy?
[05:19] <nickrud> phixxor, I always designated one os as the 'master', it ran grub
[05:19] <andyho623> thanks for your help before!

[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> andyho623: still no mic i see
[05:19] <choudesh> Asche_, are you pasting the output of apt-get -f install?
[05:19] <nj786> RickH: send me chat] 
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> andyho623: i honestly don't remember what i helped you with, but you're welcome!
[05:19] <pawan> i cant see the option names
[05:19] <pawan> http://img300.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot1tj6.png
[05:19] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.
[05:19] <andyho623> nah this just came to my attention that I can't use my headphones.. it was the firefox/thunderbird issue before.. I figured it out though :)
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.. well good for you
[05:20] <choudesh> Asche_, hmm?
[05:20] <DanaG> is there ANY sort of voice-chat app that's cross-compatible to OS X?
[05:20] <DanaG> I reeeally don't want to use Skype.
[05:20] <nj786> #rickh
[05:20] <dick-richardson> DanaG: I use gizmo
[05:20] <pawan> hello
[05:20] <burnerx> wish googletalk works on linux
[05:20] <dick-richardson> google talk isn't bad if you the people you know are on it
[05:21] <shane2peru> hey everyone
[05:21] <IndyGunFreak> dick-richardson: i don't know anyone on googletalk..lol
[05:21] <dick-richardson> doesn't it? nm then
[05:21] <IndyGunFreak> googletalk has a pidgin plugin, i do believe
[05:21] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31748/
[05:21] <burnerx> when is pidgin going to ubuntu?
[05:21] <IndyGunFreak> burnerx: uh, its out now.
[05:21] <DanaG> ekiga doesn't have an OS X version.
[05:22] <shane2peru> quick question, when I use Gaim, and someone replies to me it only shows up as squares on the screen, but I can read my text fine.
[05:22] <thinlace> does anyone know if Beryl/Compiz works on ATI's commercial drivers? I have a T60p with recent ATI drivers
[05:22] <dick-richardson> i think it's still listed as game in feisty, isn't it?
[05:22] <burnerx> i am still using gaim
[05:22] <dassd> To install Ubunto, the only thing I need to do is download it and burn the .iso as an image to a cd/dvd right`?
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> burnerx: well, uninstall game and install pidgin
[05:22] <choudesh> Asche_,  did you remember the `-a` at the end of the dpkg string?
[05:22] <dassd> Ubuntu*
[05:22] <DanaG> Oh, and iChat doesn't use SIP, or at least, it can't connect to arbitrary servers.
[05:22] <orbstra> hey how do I ban an IP from sseeing my sever
[05:22] <choudesh> Asche_, `dpkg --configure -a`
[05:22] <orbstra> an IP keeps trying to connect through ssh
[05:22] <orbstra> I need to block taht IP somehow
[05:22] <burnerx> is not in Synapitc
[05:22] <pawan> xmms problem
[05:22] <noldon> if i have lost my partition table is there a way to get it back?
[05:22] <shane2peru> dassd: yes, just burn it as an image
[05:22] <Jamesinator> orbstra: Do you have iptables installed?
[05:22] <dick-richardson> orbstra: easiest way would be to install firestarter
[05:23] <dassd> Thank you
[05:23] <Asche_> choudesh: alright.  let me give it a try.
[05:23] <andyho623> I'm diggin kubuntu over ubuntu.. :P
[05:23] <eagle-101> dassd, yes, and follow the instructions
[05:23] <IndyGunFreak> burnerx: hold on
[05:23] <orbstra> k
[05:23] <orbstra> thnx
[05:23] <dick-richardson> but I'm not a big fan of the convoluted rules it sets up
[05:23] <dassd> Will do, thanks yet again
[05:23] <choudesh> Asche_, and like before, just post it to pastebin
[05:23] <dassd> :)
[05:23] <Ex-Cyber> isn't pidgin just a rename of gaim for legal reasons and has nothing to do with differences in the actual program?
[05:23] <tonyyarusso> orbstra: you'll want to edit the SSH config file to react to "hammering", and ban repeat IPs.  Hopefully that gives you some Google search terms - may be worth an apt-cache search too, as there may be pre-made tools for it.
[05:23] <shane2peru> anyone know about gaim?
[05:23] <choudesh> noldon, Yes there is a way but it is a bit difficult.
[05:23] <weltschmerz> shane2peru it's called pidgin now.
[05:23] <IndyGunFreak> burnerx:  type this... "/join #indygunfreak"  w/o quotes
[05:23] <noldon> choudesh ok how
[05:24] <shane2peru> weltschmerz: well, whatever it is called, isn't working for me. :)
[05:24] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: what's it doing?
[05:24] <Jamesinator> How can I "stick" items onto the Desktop in GNOME? I want them to be unmoveable similar to the device icons on the desktop
[05:24] <jmg> guys i have trouble launching xine-ui
[05:24] <jmg> XTEST badrequest
[05:24] <shane2peru> weltschmerz:  dick-richardson:  when someone replies to me (yahoo chat) all I get is blocks instead of text
[05:24] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31749/
[05:25] <shane2peru> I can read my text, but not theres.
[05:25] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: are you sure they're not responding in blocks?
[05:25] <shane2peru> yep, tried two different people and used Gaim before without a problem.
[05:25] <pawan> my xmms player
[05:25] <choudesh> noldon, what where the partition types? Rather the filesystem types?
[05:25] <noldon> ext3
[05:25] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: off the cuff comment. I'd try removing .gaim and reinstalling
[05:26] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I added fonts to my font folder, but that is the only change I can remember making.
[05:26] <File13> I just reinstalled but i have no sound now, i checked to make sure im on the Alsa mixer and all my sound is turned up.
[05:26] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: can you remove them?
[05:26] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I used synaptic and uninstalled it and re-installed it
[05:26] <choudesh> Asche_, ok. please run `apt-get -f install` again and post the output
[05:26] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: at least temporarily
[05:26] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I went through synaptic and re-installed every font related item that was installed
[05:26] <Asche_> choudesh: alright.  give me a minute to do it.
[05:27] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: how did you add the fonts?
[05:27] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: not sure what ones I added now.
[05:27] <choudesh> Asche_, ok.
[05:27] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: right, but HOW did you add them? synaptic?
[05:27] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: cli, copied them from my external hdd to the font folder
[05:27] <poningru> shane2peru: that sounds like a font problem
[05:27] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: kk
[05:27] <poningru> !font
[05:27] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[05:27] <puff> How reliable is apt-upgrading from php4 to php5?  That is, are there step I have to make sure to do manually, or can I just rely on apt?
[05:27] <poningru> shane2peru: install those three fonts
[05:28] <poningru> !php | puff
[05:28] <ubotu> puff: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[05:28] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: right, that is why I re-installed all font related items through synaptic
[05:28] <poningru> puff: hmm that doesnt seem to have the info
[05:28] <choudesh> noldon, Before we get into the way that works but takes about an hour. Please use the LiveCD and boot from that. Then install GPART. It tries to guess which paritions are on the hard disk.
[05:28] <shane2peru> poningru: I did that
[05:28] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: good, but I don't think that removed the ones you added manually
[05:28] <poningru> puff: iirc I saw something about that in the forums
[05:28] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I'm not sure how to do that
[05:29] <andyho623> weird.. only certain things work on the kmix mixer... this'll be fun to figure out.. I can also plug my headphones into the mic port and get sound in the headphones and pc speakers?!?!
[05:29] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: rm /path/fonts - then reinstall
[05:29] <choudesh> noldon, the man page for gpart: http://linux.die.net/man/8/gpart
[05:29] <capo> hey, im running xgl/compiz fusion and my friend said i can use both metacity and gtk themes for ubuntu.  but what do i do with the tar.gz that i download?
[05:29] <dick-richardson> where are fonts kept, anyway?
[05:29] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: rm all of them?
[05:29] <noldon> choudesh do i have to use live cd
[05:29] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I don't remember I did a slocate, I think it is /usr/share/fonts
[05:29] <dick-richardson> shane2peru: I would. move 'em to your desktop if you're nervous
[05:29] <choudesh> noldon, well, you need a way to boot your computer so you have access to the disk.
[05:29] <noldon> cuz my root and home still working
[05:30] <dick-richardson> if everything goes to hell, you can boot to the live cd and move 'em back
[05:30] <poningru> capo: system->pref->theme install theme
[05:30] <mewshi> hi :)
[05:30] <capo> thanks
[05:30] <nickrud> capo, system-preferences-themes, and drag the tar.gz onto it
[05:30] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: ok, that sounds like a better plan than removing them :)
[05:30] <pawan> xmms player problem
[05:30] <r0b-> hi breanna_
[05:30] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: I'll give that a try.
[05:30] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: open a terminal, sudo apt-get install audacious
[05:30] <mewshi> i would like some help finding a program
[05:30] <[Chaser1> Hello. I can't figure out how I can run an executable I compiled with g++ from a C++ source file?
[05:31] <choudesh> noldon, or grab the ultimatebootcd and jump in there chan for help. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ultimatebootcd.com%2F&ei=3wmsRuflC5DQeuGKyfMF&usg=AFQjCNGXFsEb1DhrlxVrZRfWLJ8qogmOdg&sig2=2l8px1W5yFDlAL8zXlUohw
[05:31] <phasegen> Greeting, Salutations, and Avacados
[05:31] <Rockinghorse> can someone recommend a fast node for freenode. Mine is too slow tonite
[05:31] <choudesh> noldon, www.ultimatebootcd.com/
[05:31] <noldon> choudesh but im in linux now and its a secondary disk thats broken
[05:31] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: did you get that?
[05:31] <nickrud> !ask | mewshi
[05:31] <ubotu> mewshi: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:31] <choudesh> noldon, o. that is good.
[05:31] <mewshi> i need something that will run on my laptop (which runs windows) and will take specified folders or files, and back them up on my desktop (through the internet) (Which runs linux)
[05:31] <choudesh> noldon, install gpart
[05:31] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31750/
[05:31] <thinlace> does anyone know if Beryl/Compiz works on ATI's commercial drivers? I have a T60p with recent ATI drivers
[05:31] <aldin> i have tango-icon-theme (0.7.2+cvs07.02.06-0ubuntu1), and on gutsy it is .08, how do i upgrade only tango-icons,, but not whole dist-upgrade
[05:31] <aldin> i want to remain on feisty
[05:31] <IndyGunFreak> thinh: ati sucks w/ linux
[05:32] <choudesh> Asche_, please run it as root.
[05:32] <choudesh> Asche_, `sudo apt-get -f install`
[05:32] <aldin> choudesh: look i have feisty repos
[05:32] <alecwh> I just got VNC and SSH working, but I can't see any menus, desktop icons, or anything else... can someone help?
[05:32] <thinlace> indygunfreak: i know, but that doesn't tell me if it works or not. does that it mean it definitely doesn't work?
[05:32] <choudesh> IndyGunFreak, not really. I am using it now. :-D
[05:32] <pano101rain> what -f do on sudo choudesh?
[05:32] <boxoff> I have just one question
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> choudesh: lol... beauty is in the eye of the beholder i guess
[05:32] <nickrud> aldin, go to packages.ubuntu.com, download the deb (an icon theme should be safe:)
[05:33] <mewshi> so, any clue what I should use?
[05:33] <aldin> nickrud: will i have any other deps
[05:33] <boxoff> why you people keep using linux it's too hard to use?
[05:33] <choudesh> pano101rain, there is no -f argu on sudo.
[05:33] <LiberCogito> Anyone feel like helping out with a wifi connection?  Linksys WUSB54GC.  Can see the router, fails to connect to it.
[05:33] <Robert__> I have a question for any Ubuntu admin! Can linux get spyware on it?
[05:33] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31751/
[05:33] <nickrud> aldin, no, icon themes have no dependencies
[05:33] <choudesh> pano101rain, the -f argu on apt-get does a force install
[05:33] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: can you hear me
[05:33] <shane2peru> dick-richardson: ok, we are on the right track, I moved the fonts folder and opened synaptic and everything was blocks, so that is the problem
[05:33] <thetaleofcody> hey....I'm running ubuntu and xp on a single harddrive...can anyone tell me how to reinstall ubuntu without wiping out my windows?
[05:33] <choudesh> pano101rain, rather -f does a fix-broken install.
[05:33] <choudesh> aldin, what was your question again?
[05:34] <nickrud> aldin, my mistake: it does, but won't matter
[05:34] <LiberCogito> boxoff: Why do people get PHDs?
[05:34] <pano101rain> of kernal   ok ok  i'll do an info
[05:34] <LiberCogito> boxoff: Why do people fly airplanes?
[05:34] <Robert__> Anyone know if linux can get infected by spyware?
[05:34] <choudesh> Asche_, hmm, never seem this many issues. Please post your syslog
[05:34] <aldin> choudesh: i have 7.04, but dont wanna use gutsy yet - only its tango icons, cause they are packed to .deb and version is 0.8
[05:34] <aldin> and on feisty it is 0.7
[05:35] <LiberCogito> Robert__: There are like 5 viruses for linux, and they're all proof of concepts.
[05:35] <Asche_> choudesh: give me a minute then.
[05:35] <aldin> so i want to have newer icons
[05:35] <berent> !gutsy
[05:35] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[05:35] <choudesh> Asche_, no prob.
[05:35] <astro76> !virus | robert_
[05:35] <ubotu> robert_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[05:35] <amartolos> how do i get suspend/hibernate working on ubuntu feisty?
[05:35] <choudesh> aldin, you may be able to do a force install of the .deb.
[05:35] <boxoff> mmm.. ok but linux program names seem deferent than normal, JpssS Kdp  Xorg whatever why is all that odd names?
[05:36] <aldin> choudesh: i though to get out without compiling., perhaps i will do my own compile from tango-project.org
[05:36] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:36] <Robert__> LiberCogito: I'm writing a paper on the theory that if schools and consumers used Linux instead of Windows they would be more protected and save money at the same time.
[05:36] <choudesh> aldin, if you give me a few - I could compile them for you
[05:36] <LiberCogito> So I've been working on Wifi for the last 5 hours and no one really wants to help.  I've done all the googling, read all the guides.  I cannot connect to my router, though I can see it.  Linksys WUSB54GC
[05:36] <b3tamike> hey, I'm helping a friend who just installed 7.04 on his laptop. unfortunately he has a broadcom wifi card, and, despite being on the list of supported cards, with the native drivers, we can only see wifi networks, not connect to them.  any idea what we should do?
[05:36] <pawan> no dsp effect plugin for audacious player
[05:36] <alecwh> ?
[05:36] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Awesome, good luck with that!
[05:36] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: you sure?
[05:36] <alecwh> !vnc
[05:36] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[05:37] <noldon> choudesh so how is this working
[05:37] <alecwh> !freenx
[05:37] <[Chaser1> I can't figure out how I can run an executable I compiled with g++ from a C++ source file?
[05:37] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[05:37] <Robert__> LiberCogito: yeah it will be good. What's up with your WiFi?
[05:37] <choudesh> aldin, please look at the package tango-icon-theme
[05:37] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:37] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:37] <LiberCogito> b3tamike: Yeah, give up.  I've been trying for 5 hours.
[05:37] <pawan> i want 10 band graphics equilizer for audacious player
[05:37] <choudesh> aldin, I think that is the feisty package for just the icons.
[05:37] <LiberCogito> Robert__ I can see networks, but can't connect.
[05:37] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: ok.. well, maybe you should try something thats still supported, instead of xmms.
[05:37] <Asche_> choudesh: which syslog do you want me to paste?
[05:37] <astro76> pawan, click the eq button?
[05:37] <aldin> choudesh: thanks hehe, but dont worry i am ok, i will do build-dep for old tango and download source, thanks anyway - just though it could pic up gutsy's one
[05:37] <IndyGunFreak> perhaps amrok, or something like that... maybe rhythmbox,
[05:38] <Stuart_> this is irritiating...redownloaded the 7.04 CD (x86) and I keep getting "Permission denied" when I try and boot
[05:38] <Robert__> LiberCogito: what hardware do you have? Did you just install ubuntu?
[05:38] <jetscreamer> you're not worthy...
[05:38] <astro76> b3tamike, bcm43xx-fwcutter was installed right?
[05:38] <choudesh> Asche_, most recent. ;-)
[05:38] <Asche_> choudesh: duh.
[05:38] <b3tamike> astro76: yep. I followed the wiki guide
[05:38] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:38] <choudesh> noldon, `sudo gpart /dev/hda` or which-ever device you would like.
[05:38] <alecwh> Is there any reason why I wouldn't want to use FreeNX?
[05:38] <File13> I did the fstab command and im not sure where to go from there to get my fat32 partition to show up on ubuntu
[05:39] <LiberCogito> Robert__ I'm on a compaq presario 2100 (AMD).  Wired works, obviously.  Onboard wireless I gave up on.  I'm currently trying with a Linksys WUSB54GC
[05:39] <noldon> choudesh does this work with sata disk
[05:39] <astro76> b3tamike, I would try to connect unencrypted first if you haven't already (no WEP or WPA)
[05:39] <choudesh> noldon, yes.
[05:39] <pawan> hello
[05:39] <bozingdn01> hey
[05:39] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: is the Linksys not wrking either?
[05:39] <bozingdn01> what up[
[05:39] <Robert__> LiberCogito I have a 2100 too. As long as you turn on your wireless card when you are doing the install ubuntu will find it
[05:39] <b3tamike> astro76: yeah, we gave that a try as well, still no luck
[05:40] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Is there some wierd keyboard combo that turns it on and off or something?
[05:40] <nickrud> File13, what partition is your fat32?
[05:40] <choudesh> File13, you may want to look at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_mount_Windows_partitions_.28FAT.29_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_all_users_to_read.2Fwrite . I am a bit busy atm and if you wait a few I can help you.

[05:41] <dr_willis> wowsers.
[05:41] <Asche_> choudesh: ok, either it's hard to find or I'm an idiot.  I don't know where to find it at.
[05:41] <r0b-> SSH IS SWEET!
[05:41] <Robert__> LiberCogito: YES! on mine it's on the front right side, a button with an LED that will turn blue if it's on
[05:41] <LadyNikon> you can tell its the weekend
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: broadcomm i thought was supposed to work perfectly, but i don't do wireless,
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> good luck
[05:41] <LiberCogito> Robert__:Oh, thats always been on.  I thought that was the bluetooth.
[05:41] <rockets> sup all
[05:41] <choudesh> noldon, you are right. It thinks that the ext3 is ext2 but the superblocks are the same.
[05:41] <noldon> ok
[05:42] <Rockinghorse> IndyGunFreak, do you need the restricted drivers for that model?
[05:42] <Robert__> LiberCogito: no that notebook has no bluetooth
[05:42] <[Chaser1> Wow, this channel is packed! It's hard to get a word in, let alone an answer out! I can't figure out how I can run an executable I compiled with g++ from a C++ source file? (Don't worry, I won't ask again, I'll just give up and play Rainbow Six.)
[05:42] <rockets> noldon, yeah, ext3 and ext2 are identical, except for the ext3 journaling, afaik
[05:42] <Dave132> help, im getting a window creation error code trying to run secondlife client!
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> Rockinghorse: i'm not 100% sure, like i said, my understanding has alwyas been that broadcomm kinda works "out of the box".. now I may be mistaken, like i said, i don't mess with wireless.
[05:42] <choudesh> Asche_, /var/log/syslog
[05:42] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Onboard doesn't even scan, can't see networks.  USB Netgear sees networks, but doesn't blink and can't connect, USB Linksys can't connect  but blinks and sees networks.
[05:42] <berent> [Chaser1 : just run ./a.out
[05:42] <py_geek> All: i'm having problems with exaile, could someone who knows about this please join me in the #exaile room?
[05:43] <noldon> well i have to try
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: maybe you should just stay at your desk.. ;)
[05:43] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:43] <Robert__> LiberCogito: did you update ubuntu?
[05:43] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: Unacceptable.  I'm stubborn.  :-p
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[05:43] <noldon> only got like 300gb data on that disk
[05:43] <[Chaser1> berent, Hey, thanks for replying, I tried that, I get Permission denied, or This binary cannot be run.
[05:43] <LiberCogito> Robert__: All updates are done, yes.
[05:43] <Rockinghorse> IndyGunFreak, ive had trouble with wep and wireless. Someone suggested I go to restircted driver repos,
[05:43] <burnerx> i am back ~~
[05:43] <Taco`> is there an easy way to submit an idea?
[05:43] <astro76> [Chaser1, chmod +x a.out
[05:43] <berent> [Chaser1 : sudo a.out
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> Rockinghorse: i don't know, i know very little about hooking up wireless.
[05:44] <b3tamike> LiberCogito: so is there no hope for getting this wireless card working?
[05:44] <capo> can anyone recommend me a good podcast catcher? juice unfortunately isnt on linux yet
[05:44] <[Chaser1> berent, using sudo, then it says "Command not found"
[05:44] <Robert__> LiberCogito: does it work with windows?
[05:44] <LiberCogito> B3tamike: Whats the model?
[05:44] <choudesh> Who is having issues with the broadcom?
[05:44] <dk0r> Im new to linux and just installed avant window navigator and am wondering how I would remove the default taskbar @ the bottom of the screen?
[05:44] <Smirnov> is there any vmware image i can download with ubuntu preinstalled
[05:44] <berent> [Chaser1 : chmod +x first and see if it runs
[05:44] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Thats the odd thing!  The netgear works right out of the box on my desktop in fiesty!
[05:44] <Rockinghorse> If you want ootb wireless go with xandros or Sled, they use proprietary stuff.  Ubuntu is still struggling with it though they've come a long way.
[05:44] <rockets> Smirnov, you could just install ubuntu into a vm
[05:45] <py_geek> exaile wont work!!!!!!!
[05:45] <[Chaser1> berent: chmod +x ?
[05:45] <astro76> [Chaser1, because you did sudo a.out instead of sudo ./a.out, but sudo is dangerous advice anyway
[05:45] <berent> [Chaser1 : chmod +x a.out
[05:45] <File13> I need help with my wireless and my sound
[05:45] <b3tamike> LiberCogito: lspci reports bcm4303, but iwconfig gives it the nickname 4301
[05:45] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Both USB adapters work in windows, one absolutely works in linux, and the onboard is untested in windows because I never installed it.
[05:45] <pawan> wanted 31 band equilizer plugin for audacious player
[05:45] <[Chaser1> berent: I'll give it a try
[05:45] <LiberCogito> b3tamike: Ah, I have the 4306 I believe, and I can't get it to work.
[05:45] <berent> astro76 : why dangerour
[05:45] <berent> s
[05:45] <py_geek> I need help with exaile plz!
[05:46] <rockets> py_geek, #exaile
[05:46] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31752/
[05:46] <pawan> http://audacious-media-player.org/Plugins
[05:46] <py_geek> rockets: no ones in there
[05:46] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:46] <astro76> berent, the correct answer was chmod +x a.out, then ./a.out, it's dangerous to advise someone to run some unknown program as root
[05:46] <capo> can anyone recommend me a good podcast catcher? juice unfortunately isnt on linux yet
[05:46] <rockets> py_geek, 30 ppl
[05:46] <pawan> the equilizer link not working
[05:46] <Robert__> LiberCogito: what about the internal wireless card. It should be an intell chip. When you did the install did you have the computer hooked up the the ethernet?
[05:46] <py_geek> rockets: no ones talking
[05:46] <berent> astro76 : valid
[05:46] <pawan> anybody  have it pls post
[05:46] <File13> I need some help with my wireless and sound please
[05:47] <[Chaser1> berent: chmod +x <programhere> does nothing :(
[05:47] <apeitheo> Is there some way to disable the network interfaces while booting up the ubuntu live cd?
[05:47] <LiberCogito> Robert__: The internal card won't work.  I've tried everything inluding the windows drivers using NDISwrapper.  When I installed I was connected via ethernet.
[05:47] <berent> [Chaser1 : then run it as ./a.out
[05:47] <Vic> hello everyone, Im having trouble fixing my resolution on my laptop. I cant go no higher than 1024 by 768. I have intergrated graphics by intel, i think its the intel 945
[05:47] <apeitheo> I'm not connected to a network, and the livecd just hangs at boot when it gets to that point.
[05:47] <Taco`> How do I add applications to the 'Add Application'/'Open With' window?
[05:47] <choudesh> Asche_, look at Jul 28 22:56:43 darrin-laptop clvmd: Can't open cluster manager socket: No such file or directory
[05:48] <Rockinghorse> apeitheo, try disable in bios at boot
[05:48] <[Chaser1> berent: now it says Cannot execute binary file
[05:48] <choudesh> Asche_, it looks like one of your config files is wrong.
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> Rockinghorse: doesn't it need to access the internet to download packages?
[05:48] <apeitheo> Rockinghorse, ah, didn't even think of that, thanks
[05:48] <choudesh> Asche_, the config file for clvmd is /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
[05:48] <choudesh> Asche_, make sure all paths and files are right.
[05:48] <Vic> hello everyone, Im having trouble fixing my resolution on my laptop. I cant go no higher than 1024 by 768. I have intergrated graphics by intel, i think its the intel 945
[05:48] <Asche_> choudesh: how do I fix it?
[05:48] <berent> [Chaser1 : then run it as sh a.out
[05:48] <Rockinghorse> IndyGunFreak, yes, but the installer is hanging cuz of his bad connex or something.
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> Rockinghorse: ok.
[05:49] <LiberCogito> Robert__: The internal wifi is  Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller
[05:49] <Robert__> LiberCogito: that laptop is 4+ years old. Maybe the internal wireless is bad. Ok for the usb linksys. Are you trying to connect to secure networks?
[05:49] <Taco`> Vic: is it suppose to support a higher resolution?
[05:49] <schigh> Can anyone help me setup ALSA to recognize my 5.1 surround sound system?
[05:49] <schigh> Can anyone help me setup ALSA to recognize my 5.1 surround sound system?
[05:49] <noldon> choudesh is gonna take some time right
[05:49] <noldon> hehe
[05:49] <Vic> Taco: I dunno but my resolution is pretty crappy
[05:49] <berent> !alsa > schigh
[05:49] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Nope.  The router is wide open, no security.  Broadcasting at the same frequency range as the USB adapter.
[05:49] <choudesh> noldon, yes.
[05:49] <Taco`> Vic: Crappy as in?
[05:49] <vbabiy> Hey does any one know a link to a good tutorial on how to install compiz fusion
[05:49] <Vic> not clear...taco
[05:50] <Pie> How do I change my user/system administrator/login password?
[05:50] <astro76> !resolution | Vic
[05:50] <ubotu> Vic: 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
[05:50] <Rockinghorse> IndyGunFreak, have you tried a search on ubuntu forum for 'restricted driver wireless?'
[05:50] <Taco`> vbabiy: their forums
[05:50] <Robert__> LiberCogito: what chipset is the linksys card using?
[05:50] <IndyGunFreak> Rockinghorse: no i haven't... like i said, i don't mess with wireless
[05:50] <IndyGunFreak> mylaptop sits on my desk
[05:50] <choudesh> Asche_, I believe if you setup your cluster first, clam will fall into place.
[05:50] <Rockinghorse> IndyGunFreak, oh, I thought you were trying to get it to work.  Sorry!
[05:51] <pawan> how to install gz file
[05:51] <Vic> well, ive tried everything already, and lol restarting x does not do a thing. I tried using the intel drivers and the 915 resolution
[05:51] <IndyGunFreak> no no.. was just trying to give some suggestions to the other guy havign probs
[05:51] <choudesh> Asche_, looking at the deps, a catch-22 is going on. Setup up the cluster first and make sure all paths are right.
[05:51] <berent> help me with sound i don't find alsa support for ad1986a here : http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Analog_Devices
[05:51] <pawan> tgz
[05:51] <LiberCogito> Robert__: rt2500 according to everything ive googled.
[05:51] <Pie> How do I change my user/system administrator/login password?
[05:51] <astro76> pawan, you can extract it with: tar xzvf file.tar.gz
[05:51] <dystopianray> LiberCogito: check in lspci
[05:51] <IndyGunFreak> berent: whats th problem
[05:51] <Rockinghorse> Pie, passwd at console
[05:52] <[Chaser1> berent: It claims a syntax error! At least this means it's doing something. The odd thing is, g++ didn't care, my Anjuta IDE didn't care, and it is a really, really simple Hello World application example that I copy and pasted.
[05:52] <pawan> i have extracted
[05:52] <choudesh> Pie, your sudo password is the same as the current user's
[05:52] <pawan> now i want to install
[05:52] <berent> IndyGunFreak : no sound
[05:52] <astro76> pawan, what is it? usually there is a README or INSTALL file or similar that explains what to do
[05:52] <[Chaser1> berent: I will try to find the error...
[05:52] <berent> [Chaser1 : syntax error???
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> berent: is your device detected?
[05:52] <berent> IndyGunFreak : yes
[05:52] <LiberCogito> Robert__: Erm, but its usb?
[05:52] <pawan> audacious player
[05:53] <pawan> i extracted to desktop
[05:53] <Robert__> LiberCogito: I'm sorry i'm new to ubuntu myself and if it's not working and you googled everything i would say keep asking in here.
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> what is it being detected as?  look at lspci and tell me what it says about your sound device.
[05:53] <astro76> pawan, there's a reason you're not using audacious from ubuntu repos?
[05:53] <dystopianray> LiberCogito: lsusb if it is usb
[05:53] <chikita> hi, finally i got sound, but it has to be on 6 channel and surround activated, is this normal?
[05:53] <berent> IndyGunFreak : its nvidia hd audio
[05:53] <LiberCogito> Robert__:  I started asking in here 5 hours ago.  :-p
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> berent: thats not wha ti asked
[05:53] <Taco`> Is there a way to mount or burn .dmg files?
[05:54] <Pie> Okay, thanks
[05:54] <dystopianray> Taco`: osx .dmg files?
[05:54] <Robert__> LiberCogito: i would just jump in during the week. There are a lot of admins and experts then
[05:54] <berent> IndyGunFreak : what command you want to run
[05:54] <Asche_> choudesh: do you wanna see the lvm.conf file?
[05:54] <Taco`> dystopianray: yes
[05:54] <LiberCogito> 13b1:0020 Linksys
[05:54] <choudesh> Asche_, sure post it.
[05:54] <choudesh> Robert__, better than the weekend crew. ;-)
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> berent: open a terminal, type lspci  and tell me how it identifies your sound device, it will be like, "Multimedia device :  " and so on;
[05:54] <karvec> hey, I need a bunch of help, was in here yesterday, didn't fix anything
[05:54] <Taco`> karvec: ask away
[05:55] <berent> IndyGunFreak : 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[05:55] <Robert__> choudesh: if you can help LiberCogito with his problem you would prove me wrong.
[05:55] <Asche_> choudesh: It should be updated now.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31753/
[05:55] <[Chaser1> berent: Wait, I suspect it means there was a syntax error in the command I gave the terminal? Not the program itself?
[05:55] <choudesh> Robert__, we will see.
[05:55] <choudesh> LiberCogito, what is your issue?
[05:55] <[Chaser1> berent: Becase I see no syntax error
[05:55] <karvec> Taco, thanks.  I am running an old K6-2 333 MHz cpu on an Acer V70MA motherboard, 256 megs of RAM installed, 40 gig hard drive(have tried with 14 gig) and I can't get anywhere.  I have a feeling it is somehow the ACPI support, but I can't get it working.
[05:56] <Robert__> choudesh: I'll stay and watch
[05:56] <lwizardl> Hi
[05:56] <LiberCogito> choudesh: Linksys WUSG54GC usb wifi adapter will see networks and can't connect to them
[05:56] <chikita> hi, finally i got sound, but it has to be on 6 channel and surround activated, is this normal?
[05:56] <berent> [Chaser1 : paste commands and result and gimme the link
[05:56] <karvec> Taco, I've tried the ubuntu-alternate, ubuntu-server 6.06, 7.04, and desktop, 7.04
[05:56] <dystopianray> karvec: need more info about where and why it is not working
[05:56] <choudesh> LiberCogito, ooooo. One sec.
[05:56] <Taco`> karvec: what do you mean you can't 'get' anywhere?
[05:56] <pawan> how to install audacious player
[05:56] <berent> !paste > [Chaser1
[05:56] <Taco`> karvec: coincidentally i've installed on a similar machine
[05:57] <karvec> all the boot cds get to the install screen, but you choose an option and it just flashes a load screen (the vmlinuz.whatever) and then reboots
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> berent: looks lke that sound device requires kernel 2.6.20 or above.
[05:57] <astro76> pawan, I asked if there's a reason you weren't installing it from Ubuntu repos? with apt-get?
[05:57] <karvec> I can't load the Live-CD or install at all
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> wait, you'r eusing ubuntu, thats what your kernel should be.
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> nevermind
[05:57] <tupa> Taco` : http://baghira.sourceforge.net/dmg.htm
[05:57] <berent> IndyGunFreak : i have 2.6.20-16-generic
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> berent: yeah, sorry, brain fade
[05:57] <choudesh> Asche_, post the output of /etc/init.d/clvmd . Did you setup LVM yet? If you haven't you will need to.
[05:57] <Taco`> tupa: thanks ;)
[05:58] <LiberCogito> choudesh: Tried the driver from the Rt2x00 project, and nada.
[05:58] <Asche_> choudesh: how do I set it up?
[05:58] <Taco`> karvec: And the alternative CD doesn't work either?
[05:58] <karvec> Taco, no, still flashes that screen
[05:58] <lwizardl> can ubuntu create mac HFS+ filesystem?
[05:58] <astro76> pawan, you can install with: sudo apt-get install audacious
[05:58] <dystopianray> LiberCogito: are you trying to use network manager?
[05:58] <pawan> ok
[05:58] <pawan> i installed it
[05:58] <choudesh> LiberCogito, PM me.
[05:58] <pawan> but now i want to install the updated version
[05:59] <karvec> I got ubuntu working fine on my new computer, figured it'd work as well as a file-server on my old comp.  :(
[05:59] <karvec> l
[05:59] <karvec> oops, sorry
[05:59] <[Chaser1> berent: http://pastebin.ca/637690
[05:59] <Taco`> karvec: So you've tried the server install?
[05:59] <choudesh> Asche_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpLVM-WithoutACleanInstall
[06:00] <Asche_> choudesh: give me a few minutes to read over that page.
[06:00] <karvec> Taco: I have....  Still gets to the load screen, etc., etc.  I've even installed it on another comp, and swapped hard drives.  Grub loads, then it reads "Starting up..." then just reboots.
[06:00] <pawan> i want to install version 1.3.2
[06:00] <karvec> Taco:  I have tried desktop 7.04 and both server 6.06/7.04 and the alternate
[06:00] <scorch999> howdy -- anyone in here tried to install Fedora 7 as a VDI using Virtual box on Ubuntu 7.04?
[06:00] <triplah_> anyone know anything about the libwfb problems with nvidia drivers?
[06:01] <Taco`> karvec: Have you tried Xubuntu?
[06:01] <pawan> my current version is 1.2.2
[06:01] <Taco`> karvec: I got that running better than Ubuntu on my Acer
[06:01] <karvec> Taco:  No I haven't, figured that more server support would be on Ubuntu...  Is there a "Xubuntu server"?  :P
[06:01] <Taco`> karvec: lol, actually I'm not sure.
[06:01] <dr_willis> karvec,  in a way - that makes no sence. :)
[06:02] <dystopianray> karvec: i imagine that ubuntu server would not come with a gui
[06:02] <karvec> Taco:  I started up Damn-Small-Linux quite easily, but its not a stable distro...
[06:02] <astro76> pawan, if you really think that's worth the trouble, there will be instructions in the package on how to compile it
[06:02] <Taco`> karvec: Yeah, I've been there before.
[06:03] <dr_willis> gee. i always found DSL rather stable.. but its more of a 'use it for a few min to fix stuff' then reboot disrto.
[06:03] <karvec> and ubuntu server doesn't even install, thats why i'm asking, dystopianray, dr_willis
[06:03] <FireFox> Is there any dvd decryptor software?
[06:03] <yurimxpxman> FireFox: libdvdcss/k9copy/thoggen/vlc
[06:03] <dr_willis> karvec,  ive had oddities where a ubuntu cd disent boot right. but a kubuntu cd did.. Not sure what the deal was.
[06:03] <karvec> dr_willis:  exactly, and since I'd rather plug and play because I'm a noob, I don't want to fix stuff.  I want it working.
[06:03] <zerokill88> ok so i added a script to /etc/inti.d/ and i know u have to update it, so in my home dir i typed update-rc.d "script" defaults. now is that correct?
[06:03] <dr_willis> karvec,  dsl is rather specilized. for  special needs. :)
[06:03] <choudesh> FireFox, and add handbrake to that list.
[06:03] <karvec> *grins*
[06:03] <dystopianray> FireFox: yes: vobcopy, k9copy, k3b and probably others
[06:03] <dr_willis> karvec,  you proberly dont want to be messiwnt with the 'server' cd's then
[06:04] <berent> [Chaser1 : hey did u do cc
[06:04] <berent> [Chaser1 : whereis a.out
[06:04] <karvec> dr_willis:  I wanted to set up a small file server though
[06:04] <choudesh> scorch999, if you do, don't use LVM in FC7.
[06:04] <pawan> yes
[06:04] <berent> [Chaser1 : .o is obj not executable
[06:04] <karvec> dr_willis is there a better way then that?
[06:04] <yurimxpxman> do any of you know how to convert flac to wma?
[06:04] <dr_willis> karvec,  so.. .... what makes you think you cant do that with the desktop cd. :)
[06:04] <dick-richardson> this cpu soft lockup is killing me.
[06:04] <nickrud> zerokill88, should be fine, look in /etc/rc2.d/ to see if the link was made
[06:04] <[Chaser1> berent: it's called HelloWorld.o, that's what Anjuta IDE named it
[06:04] <scorch999> @choudesh -- could that lock up the install at the last stage writing the grub part?
[06:04] <dystopianray> yurimxpxman: there is no wma converter for linux
[06:04] <dr_willis> karvec,  I got several fileservers. :)
[06:04] <dick-richardson> here's dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31755/
[06:04] <Taco`> karvec: If you're a noob, you probably want a GUI :P
[06:04] <Nutubuntu> I'm looking for an app something like AutoHotKey or Quickeys -- something that will trap key sequences I configure (for example, " str ") and expand them on the fly (for example, I might define " str " to expand into "my input string." Is there something like either of those apps for Linux?
[06:04] <choudesh> scorch999, nod.
[06:04] <karvec> dr_willis, nothin, just rather figure it out.  :P  i
[06:05] <dick-richardson> here's lsmod: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31756/
[06:05] <karvec> i'll grab ubuntu
[06:05] <yurimxpxman> dystopianray: how certain are you of that? :(
[06:05] <scorch999> kthx
[06:05] <zerokill88> nickrud ok, will it just be the script namo or s20scriptname
[06:05] <dr_willis> karvec,  using a 'server' cd - assumes you DO know what you are doing.
[06:05] <karvec> err, xubuntu, and hope
[06:05] <karvec> that it works out
[06:05] <Taco`> karvec: *crosses fingers*
[06:05] <IndyGunFreak> berent: you there.
[06:05] <scorch999> i think i did try without LVM, but still no dice, but i can try again
[06:05] <dick-richardson> and here's lspci: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31757/
[06:05] <yurimxpxman> dystopianray: not that I *like* wma, but someone asked me for my files in the wma format
[06:05] <Bob_Dole> Hey.. I was trying to mount my second CD drive.. not really having a clue which that is, and suddenly it seems everything on my desktop, has disappeared.. and other stuff got messed with.. how could mounting a drive F stuff up like that?!
[06:05] <dystopianray> yurimxpxman: there may be an encoder for wma2 at the most
[06:05] <dr_willis> karvec,  also may want t check out that 'mint linux' its another ubuntu variant. :)
[06:05] <[Chaser1> berent: So uh... I didn't actually make an executable in the first place?
[06:05] <nickrud> zerokill88, S[something] name (99?)
[06:05] <jetscreamer> gahhah
[06:05] <karvec> i have 4 linux distros sitting on my desktop right now
[06:05] <jetscreamer> ass-u-me's you mean
[06:05] <dystopianray> yurimxpxman: just give them mp3s
[06:05] <berent> [Chaser1 : yes
[06:05] <karvec> ok, dr_willis, will definitely look at it
[06:06] <zerokill88> nickrud no its s20scriptname thats it
[06:06] <yurimxpxman> dystopianray: looks like I'll have to then
[06:06] <zerokill88> nickrud i update-rc.d with defaults, is ther something else i should do instead?
[06:06] <karvec> dr_willis, Taco, do you reccommend 6.06 or 7.04 for xubuntu?
[06:06] <dystopianray> yurimxpxman: wma is a proprietary microsoft format that has almost zero support on linux
[06:06] <b3tamike> foolsg
[06:06] <dr_willis> karvec,  always use the latest
[06:06] <berent> IndyGunFreak : yes
[06:06] <nickrud> zerokill88, no that's just fine
[06:06] <IndyGunFreak> berent: disregard that pm i sent... thats not gonna work.
[06:07] <dr_willis> karvec,  and you do NOT need to use the 64bit versions. :)
[06:07] <karvec> dr_willis, nod, thanks guys
[06:07] <berent> IndyGunFreak : ok
[06:07] <IndyGunFreak> berent: it doens't look like you're gonna get that device tow ork.
[06:07] <karvec> trust me, i know.  :P
[06:07] <zerokill88> nickrud ok, one more question, logging in and out does that stop and startt init.d again?
[06:07] <berent> IndyGunFreak : why
[06:07] <nickrud> zerokill88, now, what does it start? (fine, assuming it doesn't need something started with a higher number)
[06:07] <dystopianray> zerokill88: no
[06:07] <zerokill88> reboot?
[06:07] <IndyGunFreak> berent: it seems very few people have but there's a lot of posts w/ problems
[06:07] <nickrud> zerokill88, no, invoke-rc.d start or stop
[06:07] <dystopianray> zerokill88: that'll do it
[06:07] <dystopianray> zerokill88: just restart what you need manually
[06:07] <Taco`> karvec: I sometimes had better progressiveness with older versions.
[06:07] <scorch999> incidentally, anyone know if i can run dual digital DVI-D's on GeForce 6600 OC (BFG) under Ubuntu without pulling my hair out?  Res is 1680x1050x2 (ViewSonic Optiquest Q20wb)
[06:07] <[Chaser1> berent: Screw the IDE, it's confusing anyways. G++ without the IDE away!
[06:07] <zerokill88> ok
[06:07] <froyd> hi can u guys help me , i cant see the minimize maximize quit bar neither i can move windows around, they all stuck
[06:08] <Taco`> karvec: Also, I had to disabled acpi (or whatever) from running on grub / installing
[06:08] <[Chaser1> berent: I'll let you know how it goes.
[06:08] <nickrud> zerokill88, assuming you made a stop stanza in your script
[06:08] <IndyGunFreak> berent: is hat a toshiba laptop?
[06:08] <_da> got a compaq 5000, it will not allow me to install Ubuntu 7.04, acts as though it has no bios system,,,what gives?
[06:08] <zerokill88> nickrud no i dont think so
[06:08] <berent> IndyGunFreak : its a desktop
[06:08] <nickrud> zerokill88, or even need one
[06:08] <pawan> i have the tar.gz file
[06:08] <karvec> Taco:  do I do that by noacpi or pci:noacpi?  because that's what i have been doing--  also, I figured older versions had older kernels written for older systems.  :P
[06:08] <berent> IndyGunFreak : it did work before i updated bios
[06:08] <dystopianray> _da: what is the specific error?
[06:08] <zerokill88> nickrud i dont think i do, its a script to do a nmap scan, print it to a file, then open the file
[06:08] <berent> IndyGunFreak : let me reboot and chk
[06:09] <IndyGunFreak> before you updated your bios, or before you updated your OS?
[06:09] <karvec> Taco, hmm, it wouldn't be pci:noacpi, that doesn't make sense
[06:09] <dystopianray> zerokill88: why would you need that in a init script?
[06:09] <nickrud> zerokill88, strange init script
[06:09] <dk0r> How do I apply a patch to AWN? idk how.
[06:09] <berent> IndyGunFreak : bios
[06:09] <froyd> pls i need help :( cant move my windows they all stuck
[06:09] <_da> I do set up from a cd and at the end screen goes blank
[06:09] <dystopianray> froyd: have you been playing with beryl/compiz ?
[06:09] <IndyGunFreak> berent: well, i'd say thats your issue, why did you update your bios.
[06:09] <karvec> Taco, dr_willis, are you guys going to be here in an hour or 2?
[06:09] <zerokill88> nickrud dystoianray i guess but i want to see my lan scanned evreytime i boot up without having to type it, i boot up and boom the file open and theres my scan
[06:10] <berent> IndyGunFreak : there was an option to do it and before there was no option of hd audio and now it came
[06:10] <dystopianray> zerokill88: why do you need to see your lan scanned?
[06:10] <dk0r> Can someone please tell me how to apply the following patch to AWN? (http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/28405/)
[06:10] <froyd> dystopianray: i have it it, was working fine, but i run out of batery now the xserver fails, i restored the backupd copy of my xorg.conf but now it doest work anymore the windows
[06:10] <froyd> neither beryl apparently works
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> berent: well, good luck
[06:10] <nickrud> zerokill88, init scripts are intended for system startup or services; I guess that's ok but don't open it cuz most certainly you won't be logged in then
[06:10] <zerokill88> dystopianray just making sure no open ports on my comps or no "extra" comps on my lan
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> berent: can you pull the cmos jumper and reset it?
[06:10] <Taco`> karvec: I'll be here, and it was acpi=off or something
[06:10] <zerokill88> nickrud what do you mean
[06:10] <froyd> i think i need to reconfigure my xorg.conf but i dont know how, i think beryl configured it for me when i installed and it was fine,
[06:10] <dystopianray> zerokill88: sounds insanely paranoid
[06:10] <choudesh> dk0r, if the directories are the same, just use `patch < patchfile`
[06:11] <froyd> i got it to work with the first installation of beryl no problem
[06:11] <zerokill88> dystopianray lol come on
[06:11] <dk0r> choudesh: im new to linux. can you be more specific please?
[06:11] <karvec> Taco, ok, i'll try that.  how exactly do i do that, just hit f6, then erase that line, and type acpi=off?
[06:11] <astro76> zerokill88, sounds like maybe you should just use firestarter
[06:11] <Taco`> karvec: In grub or installation?
[06:11] <ShattereSnow> I need help
[06:11] <ShattereSnow> with Ubuntu
[06:11] <choudesh> dk0r, open up a terminal, App->Assories->Terminal and navigate to the directory and type, `patch orginfile patchfile`
[06:11] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: ask away
[06:11] <ShattereSnow> 6.0.1
[06:11] <zerokill88> astro76 i know, but i have other comps that dont use linux and if nmap wasnt made then we wouldnt have a need for it
[06:12] <ShattereSnow> Taco, I cant get an internet connection to work
[06:12] <karvec> taco, either
[06:12] <nickrud> zerokill88, init scripts start before login; you'll see S13gdm, that starts the gdm login, which takes a while. Most likely by the time you finish logging yourself in, S20 will be done, have tried to open your file, and failed
[06:12] <pawan> hi
[06:12] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: what type of connection?
[06:12] <astro76> zerokill88, how often you plan on rebooting the linux machine then? maybe you should add it to cron and do it periodically
[06:12] <pawan> how to install tar.gz file
[06:12] <Taco`> karvec: when installing it'll give you a list of keys to hit for a command line or something, just add it to the end
[06:12] <ShattereSnow> Taco its Broadband cable but my cable modem is going through a ethernet switcher
[06:12] <dk0r> choudesh, thats my problem. idk what the original file is and the forum I got the patch off (http://www.planetblur.org/hosted/awnforum/index.php?shard=forum&action=g_reply&ID=319&page=1) does not specify
[06:12] <Taco`> pawan: you don't install them, you extract them ^_^
[06:12] <dr_willis> !tar
[06:12] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[06:12] <zerokill88> nickrud ah i see, so i need to give it a time to start right after login?
[06:13] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: do you have a router?
[06:13] <pawan> i extracted
[06:13] <ShattereSnow> yes
[06:13] <astro76> pawan, seriously, you need to read the readme, and if you have problem with a step we can help
[06:13] <zerokill88> astro76 its a laptop everyday i do
[06:13] <ShattereSnow> Taco
[06:13] <astro76> pawan, you'll at the very least need to apt-get install build-essential
[06:13] <ShattereSnow> I pmed you
[06:13] <ShattereSnow> talk to me there
[06:13] <ShattereSnow> Please.
[06:13] <astro76> !pm
[06:13] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[06:13] <nickrud> zerokill88, like astro76 says, just use a cron file; add it to /etc/cron.hourly. or daily. That will get it run when you start, and hourly or daily afterwards.
[06:13] <dk0r> choudesh: maybe its this 'src/awn-bar.c'
[06:13] <pawan> where is the pastebin
[06:13] <karvec> Taco`, been trying it with text-install and the acpi=off doesn't work for me...  How could I disable it in grub>
[06:14] <dk0r> choudesh: how do I save the patch? as a txt?
[06:14] <nickrud> zerokill88, and mail it to yourself
[06:14] <Nutubuntu> pawan,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> Taco
[06:14] <astro76> !pastebin | pawan
[06:14] <ubotu> pawan: 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)
[06:14] <choudesh> dk0r, yes. as the diff
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> I have a cable modem
[06:14] <Taco`> karvec: same way, once grub loads just edit the boot line and add it to the end
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> Is that a router?
[06:14] <zerokill88> nickrud so cron will get it to run when i login? wihtout a specific time
[06:14] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: no, that's a modem
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> Ok
[06:14] <Nutubuntu> deja vu?
[06:14] <zerokill88> nickrud mailing is too much
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> No
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> I dont have a router
[06:14] <ShattereSnow> but I have an Ethernet switch
[06:14] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: you'll need a router
[06:14] <dystopianray> zerokill88: your whole plan is too much
[06:14] <towlieba> is there anything in the 32 bit version of the install cd that would prevent you from installing the 32-bit version of ubuntu on a 64 bit system ? my friend tried to do this and got an error that the filesystem wasnt compatible and couldnt continue.
[06:15] <dk0r> choudesh: the diff? idk what that means. so I should save the patch here (http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/28405/) as a txt and patch the origin file w/ it ?
[06:15] <dystopianray> towlieba: there is nothing
[06:15] <zerokill88> dystopianray i dont think so,its a simple two line script
[06:15] <dystopianray> towlieba: provide the exact error
[06:15] <ShattereSnow> Why will I need a router? Windows works with the ethernet switch
[06:15] <pawan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31759/
[06:15] <Nutubuntu> towlieba,  the fs has nothing to do with whether the cpu is 32 bit or 64
[06:15] <choudesh> dk0r, save it as file.diff then just apply it with `patch orginalfile diffile.diff`
[06:15] <towlieba> dystopianray, ok let me ask him to find out
[06:15] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: the router sets up a LAN for you, allowing other computers to access the internet
[06:15] <dk0r> choudesh: trying now. ty
[06:15] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: the switch splits the internet up, simple and cheap
[06:15] <nickrud> zerokill88, if you add it to cron.daily, it will get run at 7.30, unless you weren't running at 7.30, in which case it'll run when you start the computer. Same principle for hourly
[06:16] <ShattereSnow> So what would I do if I had a router?
[06:16] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: if you have multiple IP's the switch will work, because it's asking the modem or ISP for another IP
[06:16] <choudesh> towlieba, depends on the processor. AMD 64 has issues. I am trying to debug them as it sits beside me
[06:16] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: Switch -> Router -> Modem, or just Router -> Modem if it has multiple ports
[06:16] <ShattereSnow> Ok.
[06:16] <nickrud> zerokill88, and cron automatically mails the output to you
[06:16] <zerokill88> nickrud ah so say i st it for 1.am. sence its not run at 1 it starts when i boot up, but how do i get it to show me the file at bootup
[06:16] <ShattereSnow> Modem> Switch (Mult Ports) to Comps
[06:16] <zerokill88> nickrud oh,only mail
[06:16] <Asche_> Choudesh: hey I'm gonna have to work on it more tomorrow.  getting hard to see the computer screen.
[06:17] <towlieba> choudesh, it is an amd64
[06:17] <towlieba> iirc
[06:17] <ShattereSnow> Taco?
[06:17] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: the way my network is setup, my router only has 2 ports. 1 for internet, 1 for a computer. i use the switch to allow more ports to access it
[06:17] <pawan> i extracted audacious tar.gz file on desktop
[06:17] <choudesh> Asche_, ight. Well, just read the page and it spells it out for you.
[06:17] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: if that makes sense
[06:17] <pawan> now i want to install it
[06:17] <ShattereSnow> Ok
[06:17] <zerokill88> nickrud ok but how about if i can get the init.d script to run at login, is that possible?
[06:17] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: so instead, the switch is asking the router for more IP's (in which it can give)
[06:17] <nickrud> zerokill88, if you send it to a file, write a script that opens the file in your favorite editor, and add it to your session
[06:17] <Asche_> Choudesh: thanks for the help.  I'm gonna book mark that page.
[06:17] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: sorry for the blunt explanation, trying not to spam the channel
[06:17] <ShattereSnow> Taco, 2 comps connected up to the switch, It worked.
[06:17] <nickrud> zerokill88, move the script to system->prefs->sessions
[06:18] <ShattereSnow> Both internet.
[06:18] <zerokill88> nickrud hm ok ill try that
[06:18] <pawan> cannot find libmcs error
[06:18] <karvec> Taco, no luck with the acpi=false option on grub
[06:18] <Taco`> karvec: acpi=off
[06:18] <zerokill88> nickrud what would the command be to run the script
[06:18] <apeitheo> Rockinghorse, I didn't find anything in the BIOS, and I just tried it again, and realized it's stopping AFTER it says [OK]  for configuring network interfaces
[06:18] <Taco`> ShattereSnow: what IP does both the computers get?
[06:18] <apeitheo> Rockinghorse, why would it just stop?
[06:19] <karvec> Taco, I think I tried that too.
[06:19] <ShattereSnow> Idk. Ill check taco
[06:19] <pawan> hello
[06:19] <Taco`> karvec: one sec
[06:19] <nickrud> zerokill88, system->prefs->session tab startup programs button new
[06:19] <karvec> Taco, k, any bios settings i should edit?  I'll wait, no worries
[06:19] <zerokill88> nickrud ya i got that i mean under "command" just ./home/something/script
[06:19] <Taco`> karvec: this is my thread i made: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=276309
[06:20] <nickrud> zerokill88, /path/to/script
[06:20] <zerokill88> nickrud ok
[06:20] <astro76> pawan, libmcs is linked on the audacious page where you downloaded it, this is basically the difficulty with doing this, you're going to have to compile that too
[06:20] <astro76> pawan, because I don't even see it as packaged in ubuntu repos
[06:20] <King_Leonidas> what package contains libphp5.so
[06:21] <King_Leonidas> anytone know?
[06:21] <Taco`> King_Leonidas: php5? lol
[06:21] <Rockinghorse> apeitheo, this is a bit over my head, but the folks in comp.os.linux.ubuntu are great on questions like these.  Can you get usenet?
[06:21] <King_Leonidas> really
[06:21] <dystopianray> King_Leonidas: mostly likely 'php5'
[06:21] <King_Leonidas> ><
[06:21] <nickrud> King_Leonidas, libapache2-mod-php5
[06:21] <Taco`> King_Leonidas: just a wild guess
[06:21] <King_Leonidas> tried that nickrud
[06:21] <astro76> King_Leonidas, dpkg -S filename will tell you
[06:21] <apeitheo> Rockinghorse, yes, I'll try that if I can't get it working. Thanks a bunch though anyway
[06:21] <nickrud> King_Leonidas, dpkg -S libphp5.so tells me that
[06:22] <Rockinghorse> apeitheo, that should be alt.os.linux.ubuntu
[06:22] <King_Leonidas> bugger
[06:22] <Tornado> hello
[06:22] <schigh> Does anyone know anything about setting up surround sound?
[06:23] <nickrud> King_Leonidas, a useful tool is apt-file; install it, run sudo apt-file update , and then you can search for files that aren't on your system: apt-file search
[06:23] <zerokill88> nickrud haha beautiful it works, thanks alot :)
[06:23] <nickrud> zerokill88, yw
[06:23] <karvec> Taco, in the bios there is Power Management settings.  Should they be enabled or disabled--  When enabled, it adds an IDE Hard Disk Standby Timer, System Sleep Timer, Stop CPU Clock in Sleep State, Power Switch and Modem Wake-up...
[06:23] <bemusehehehe> this is awesome :)
[06:24] <astro76> King_Leonidas, you can also here which gives what nickrud said http://packages.ubuntu.com/#search_packages
[06:24] <Nutubuntu> pawan there is a longish article on compiling audacious 1.3.2 for Feisty here; maybe it will help. http://www.ubustu.com/globe/2007/04/21/compile-audacity-132-beta-with-feisty/ (I wonder if you have already read it though, it was one of the first hits in a Google search. If it's old news to you, sorry.)
[06:24] <bemusehehehe> hey does anyone know where if the ubuntu documentation is available to download
[06:24] <Taco`> karvec: personally, i'd try every option if you're willing lol
[06:24] <bemusehehehe> like when you open firefox it comes up
[06:24] <nickrud> astro76, I'm trying to break myself of that one :)
[06:24] <magor999> can any one help me with ndisrwapper?
[06:24] <Taco`> magor999: what's the problem?
[06:24] <bathat> hi, i've been trying to recover the data on my drive for over a week now...
[06:24] <schigh> Does anyone know anything about setting up surround sound?
[06:24] <bathat> my question is... are the backup superblocks overwritten occasionally?
[06:24] <bathat> i can't seem to find anything on the Internet or in books that talks about this
[06:25] <Tornado> can you enable desktop effects on a old computer with 256 mb of ram?
[06:25] <nickrud> bemusehehehe, it's already on your system; hit the life preserver
[06:25] <Taco`> Tornado: why would you want to?
[06:25] <Tornado> i dont know ?
[06:25] <dystopianray> Tornado: depends on the video card, but even if you could, you wouldn't want to
[06:25] <bemusehehehe> life preserver??
[06:25] <nickrud> bemusehehehe, or system->help & support
[06:25] <magor999> i download the packets and im not sure if they insalled but when i went to configurehardware the device that i want to install using ndisrwapper is not there
[06:26] <bemusehehehe> ah sweet
[06:26] <karvec> Taco`, heck, that still doesn't let it boot up, just reboots again
[06:26] <bemusehehehe> i see it now :)
[06:26] <Taco`> karvec: you sure downloaded xubuntu fast? lol
[06:26] <bemusehehehe> only if i had known that when i first tried ubuntu :(
[06:26] <King_Leonidas> where does ubuntu store downloaded packages?
[06:26] <bemusehehehe> mine pops up on my desktop
[06:26] <nickrud> King_Leonidas, /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:26] <karvec> Taco`, still trying with GRUB on a server install from a different computer
[06:26] <bemusehehehe> oh packages, nvm me :P
[06:26] <King_Leonidas> thanks
[06:27] <karvec> Taco`, it probably doesn't work because it wasn't configured on this system, but ya know...  Still gotta try.  :P
[06:27] <nickrud> bemusehehehe, also, help.ubuntu.com has that, as well as more on the wiki
[06:27] <Taco`> karvec: been there -.-''
[06:27] <Tornado> i have a nvidia Riva128
[06:27] <magor999> what comand do i use to install ndisrwapper?
[06:27] <Tornado> would that work at all ?
[06:27] <bemusehehehe> yeah i was using that before when i was trying to install some files =)
[06:28] <bemusehehehe> thanks for the help!
[06:28] <dystopianray> Tornado: no

[06:35] <King_Leonidas> No

[06:35] <dystopianray> Tornado: untrue
[06:35] <IdNotFound> bemusehehehe: it has been a while since I used too, I had to /HELP for it :P
[06:35] <kyled185> Tornado, no, but sometimes there are weird issues if you decide to remove it
[06:35] <slipknot666> tnx..dystopianray
[06:35] <King_Leonidas> Steve Ballmer spread that rumor >_>
[06:35] <bemusehehehe> thanks alot IdNotFound :)
[06:36] <dk0r> Can someone please walk me through implementing this AWN patch (http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/28405/) to get the angeled/reflecting dock look? I applied it and tried to edit awn-bar.c, but I cannot find a selection to set the angle, only offset.
[06:36] <IdNotFound> no problem :)
[06:36] <Tornado> so it wont wreck the hard drive over timne
[06:36] <dystopianray> Rockinghorse: make sure you have libxine-extracodecs installed, you'll bea ble to play almost anything
[06:36] <King_Leonidas> no
[06:36] <dystopianray> Tornado: where did you hear such nonsense?
[06:36] <bemusehehehe> this channel is excellent
[06:36] <King_Leonidas> if you shake your computer on the other hand...
[06:36] <Tornado> google.com
[06:36] <kyled185> Tornado, for example I had to clear my partition table so that I could reinstall windows
[06:36] <Tornado> ok
[06:36] <dystopianray> Tornado: it's entirely untrue
[06:36] <kyled185> Tornado, there is however, nothing physical that could be damaged on the hard drive
[06:37] <Tornado> hold on i will see if i can find that web page hold on
[06:37] <toddy> why i received this when i start my GAMI?==> "Received CTCP 'VERSION' (to toddy) from freenode-connect"
[06:37] <Rockinghorse> dys: ok i;ll have a look.
[06:37] <choudesh> bemusehehehe, if any users help you - please thank them. this channel is excellent because even the pro's help other pro's and new people can also help. Everyone in this channel makes this channel very helpful.
[06:37] <Davy_Jones> Tornado: i've been dual booting windows and ubuntu for since 2004, no hard drive got screwed up
[06:37] <dystopianray> toddy: freenode server message
[06:38] <bemusehehehe> yeah it is :D
[06:38] <toddy> dystopianray: i don't quite understand
[06:38] <dystopianray> toddy: it is nothing to worry about
[06:38] <choudesh> I been helping others and I need to fix my AMD64 bit machine and get 4 widescreen monitors working with Xorg. This should be fun.
[06:38] <magor999> what comand do i use to install ndisrwapper?
[06:38] <bemusehehehe> i will ;) btw what are some p2p programs for linux somewhat of an equivellant of limewire?
[06:38] <kyled185> bemusehehehe, frostwire
[06:38] <Davy_Jones> Tornado: even if you found the page, i wouldn't believe it, cuz i, myself, me had enough experience that tells me linux won't damage the hard drive
[06:38] <toddy> but it doesn't get into the default channal!
[06:38] <Taco`> bemusehehehe: frostwire
[06:38] <und3rB3ar> 1st  you clean/descale the fish
[06:38] <bemusehehehe> oh sweet thanks kyled :)
[06:39] <bemusehehehe> and taco ! :D
[06:39] <Tornado> ya your right
[06:39] <xtknight> choudesh, oh yeah?  at the moment im trying to patch gnome so i can use different backgrounds on each monitor :P
[06:39] <Taco`> bemusehehehe: i use gtk-gnutella i believe it's called
[06:39] <bemusehehehe> oh i see ill a take look at them both
[06:39] <toddy> dystopianray: what's the default channal?
[06:39] <IdNotFound> choudesh: I wish I had 4 widescreens ;)
[06:39] <choudesh> xtknight, if you get that working - send it over to choudeshell@gmail.com
[06:39] <Redwar_> Hi everybody, I m wondering if anyone can maybe help me.  I just installed UBUNTU 7.04, and I am trying to get the sound juicer to play.  But no audio is coming out. Any suggestions?
[06:39] <dystopianray> toddy: there is no default channel, join whichever one you want to talk in
[06:40] <kyled185> bemusehehehe, you'll have to go to Frostwire website, I don't believe it's in the ubuntu repositories
[06:40] <IdNotFound> bemusehehehe: frostwire is a very good limewire clone/successor
[06:40] <dystopianray> Redwar: what are you trying to play?
[06:40] <xtknight> choudesh, hmm yea it's going to be a messy hack :P
[06:40] <Redwar_> A cd
[06:40] <pawan> i dont want to install audacity i want to install audacious player
[06:40] <Taco`> bemusehehehe: but it's in Automatix2 ;)
[06:40] <Redwar_> audio cd
[06:40] <kyled185> !automatix
[06:40] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:40] <choudesh> xtknight, actually... there was a app that did that.
[06:40] <bemusehehehe> yeah i found the site dling atm :)
[06:40] <xtknight> choudesh, for different workspaces but not for different monitors?
[06:40] <toddy> dystopianray: thanks a lot
[06:41] <choudesh> xtknight, I believe it was different monitors. Let me look.
[06:41] <Redwar_> I ve gone and looked all over Dystopianray.  I can get some of the desktop sound effects, but I am not able to play anything with sound juicer, and I am not sure why
[06:41] <Tornado> here i think i found the page if you guys want to luagh at it
[06:41] <Tornado>  laugh'
[06:42] <dystopianray> Redwar: if the sound effects play then you're just lacking codecs
[06:42] <Tornado> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104535
[06:43] <Taco`> is there an easy way to submit idea's?
[06:43] <pawan> cannot find libmcs
[06:43] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: The songs are playing, but no sound comes out
[06:44] <bemusehehehe> lol its fun trying to install programs :D, first time i had a hassle free installing frostwire ;)
[06:44] <dystopianray> Redwar: this is for the audio cd?
[06:44] <Tornado> but thanks for clearing that up for me
[06:44] <rdesh> lulwire
[06:44] <Taco`> bemusehehehe: lucky you :/
[06:44] <hosk> apt-get has the wrong idea
[06:44] <pawan> make depend error 2
[06:44] <hosk> when i try to install docbook-xml it literally tells me that it depends on "core" instead of "xml-core"
[06:44] <dystopianray> Redwar: it may be playing the cd in the analog fashiona nd you need to adjust the volume of a audio cd specfic channel on your mixer
[06:45] <schigh> Does anyone know anything about setting up surround sound?
[06:45] <kyled185> schigh, I have a surround setup
[06:45] <Taco`> how do i setup a second hard drive for storage on ubuntu?
[06:45] <pawan> how to install audacious
[06:46] <schigh> kyled185, I have surround sound USB speakers, and I'm having trouble with them. How do I configure them?
[06:46] <pedrouva> ol, tem alguem q fale portugues brasil
[06:46] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: I just left Fedora and this is my first day using UBUNTU. Any hints where to go to find out  how to get the system off of this Fashiona nd, if that is what it is?
[06:46] <astro76> !pt | pedrouva
[06:46] <ubotu> pedrouva: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[06:46] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: bare in mind, that I can barely complie
[06:46] <Redwar_> complie
[06:46] <dystopianray> Redwar: you don't need to compile anything
[06:46] <Redwar_> compile
[06:46] <schigh> kyled185, my other problem is that sounds lags quite a bit using ALSA, but I don't know what else to use.
[06:46] <Redwar_> lol
[06:47] <pedrouva> sou novo usuario e no sei lidar com esse sistema, como fao isso?
[06:47] <dystopianray> Redwar: there is probably a channel on your soundcard that you need to adjust to get the cd volume increased
[06:47] <Taco`> if i were to setup a 2nd hard drive, would i have to reformat it or just run a magical ext3 command on it?
[06:47] <IdleOne> pawan, sudo apt-get install audacious
[06:47] <karvec> Taco`, I can't believe you are asking questions!!!  :P
[06:47] <flaccid> Taco`: depends if the drive is partitioned and formatted
[06:47] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: do I go into alsamixer and adjust?
[06:48] <kyled185> schigh, I've never configured a surround setup on through USB, what kind of audio device do you use?
[06:48] <dystopianray> Redwar: yes, that'll do it
[06:48] <pawan> it is installing version 1.2.2
[06:48] <dystopianray> Redwar: what sound card do you have?
[06:48] <Taco`> flaccid: nope, empty. i just need more space :(
[06:48] <bemusehehehe> ok thanks everyone for the help, im going to power off this machine for now laters!
[06:48] <Taco`> karvec: we're in the same channel, are we not? :>
[06:48] <flaccid> !format
[06:48] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[06:48] <pawan> i want to install the latest version 1.3.2
[06:48] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: Sound Blaster..
[06:48] <pawan> manually
[06:48] <rdesh> lolwut
[06:48] <flaccid> Taco`: qtparted
[06:48] <dystopianray> Redwar: which model?
[06:48] <berent> i have i have alsa 1.0.13 and my nvidia hda needs 1.0.11 . what should i do
[06:48] <IdleOne> pawan, then you will need to compile it yourself
[06:48] <pawan> how
[06:48] <schigh> kyled185, I have Bose Companion 5.
[06:48] <flaccid> Taco`: or gparted
[06:49] <Taco`> flaccid: bleh, which one lol
[06:49] <flaccid> Taco`: either
[06:49] <Taco`> flaccid: *was already installing qtparted*
[06:49] <Tom47> taco http://www.phy.davidson.edu/instrumentation/images/Kubuntu/Add%202nd%20Hard%20Drive.pdf
[06:49] <Redwar_> dystopianray:  Audigy
[06:49] <Taco`> Tom47: thanks ;)
[06:49] <Taco`> flaccid: thanks too ;)
[06:49] <schigh> kyled185, my main concern is the lag.
[06:49] <dystopianray> Redwar: ok, is the cdrom hooked up to the sound card?
[06:49] <choudesh> xtknight, looks like your right.
[06:50] <choudesh> xtknight, looks like compiz supports it though.
[06:50] <flaccid> np
[06:50] <kyled185> schigh, ah, sorry I have only used Intel and Sound Blaster devices
[06:50] <Redwar_> dystopianray: Well, it runs in windows, and Noatun ran in Fedora
[06:50] <pawan> how to install xmms2
[06:50] <astro76> pawan, you can find libmcs on this page http://audacious-media-player.org/Downloads
[06:50] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: But I do not think so
[06:50] <dystopianray> Redwar: you don't think so?
[06:50] <schigh> kyled185, yeah hardly anyone seems to have USB sound. Thanks anyway.
[06:51] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: that the soundcard is connected to the soundcard...
[06:51] <dystopianray> Redwar:  on my audigy 2 I have to increase the 'analog mix' control
[06:51] <Redwar_> Dystopianray, I mean the cd
[06:51] <kyled185> schigh, the only things I can help you with is to open the volume control and then go to Edit -> Preferences and then start turning things on
[06:51] <astro76> pawan, xmms is dead, audacious is the current project
[06:51] <pawan> ok
[06:51] <flaccid> Tom47: hmm that document recommends sudo kate , not ideal but heh
[06:52] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: I am opening the terminal and I am going to try to get Alsamixer and adjust the controls...
[06:53] <Tornado> when you change workspace's on 3d cube how do you change the black background?
[06:53] <Nutubuntu> gnight all
[06:54] <Tom47> flaccid yea i guess its a bit aggravating at times to have people asking for things that are so readily documented and available through a google search at times but there ya go

[06:56] <dystopianray> Redwar: why do you want to use your onboard sound?

[06:57] <c2c2rock> just type
[06:57] <c2c2rock> sudo apt-get install xfce4
[06:58] <Redwar_> Dystopianray: Actually, I am trying not to.  My sound however was not working for the desktop and the only way I could get it to work was when I went to sound and changed the device from CA106 to the SiS SI 7012.  Is the SiS SI the on board chip, or the Audigy?
[06:58] <dystopianray> Redwar: it'd be the onboard chip

[07:04] <astro76> *most
[07:04] <decavolt> :P it's the FM... as in RTFM
[07:05] <decavolt> Google is your friend, toddy
[07:05] <IdNotFound> pawan: out of curiosity, is there any particular reason you want the latest audacious?
[07:05] <frostburn> meh, i still compile newer versions of software i can't "live without"
[07:05] <toddy> decavolt, yes you are right!
[07:05] <pawan> there are new features added
[07:06] <pawan> more plugins audio effects
[07:06] <Tom47> decavol you could try #qemu if no joy here
[07:06] <Tom47> decavolt you could try #qemu if no joy here
[07:06] <decavolt> Ah, thank you very much Tom47 - didn't know that channel existed.
[07:06] <decavolt> I'll check it out
[07:08] <Simplechat> hey
[07:08] <pawan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31763/
[07:09] <Simplechat> say i have a file, which contains a large amount of tab dilimidated files, and i want to grab one field from it
[07:09] <Simplechat> i know grep can get rid of lines that i don't want, but how do i split those lines up?
[07:10] <decavolt> Simplechat, A little perl script using a regular expression would do the trick nicely
[07:10] <dystopianray> Simplechat: awk
[07:10] <dem0n> who can help me with apache?
[07:10] <dystopianray> dem0n: what trouble are you having?
[07:10] <pawan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31764/
[07:10] <dr_willis> Simplechat,  sed/awk may be what you need. not grep.
[07:11] <dr_willis> grep dosent edit files, sed/awk do
[07:11] <agoeng> hai
[07:11] <karvec> dr_willis, i've almost got xubuntu
[07:11] <dystopianray> Simplechat: say you want the 2nd word in each line you pipe it through: awk '{print $2}'
[07:11] <astro76> pawan, you need to sudo make install
[07:11] <dem0n> um when i go to my web site it says apache/blah blah
[07:12] <dem0n> go to www.1337-hackers.com
[07:12] <dem0n> opps
[07:12] <dem0n> www.1337.tk
[07:12] <dem0n> damn
[07:12] <dr_willis> sounds like it got haxored. :)
[07:12] <SeveredCross> Simplechat: cut -f <field number> is what you're looking for.
[07:12] <dem0n> im really sorry im really high
[07:12] <dystopianray> can't be that 1337 if apache is too much for you
[07:12] <dystopianray> lol
[07:12] <bruenig> can't we just eliminate cut
[07:12] <SeveredCross> I like cut.
[07:12] <dem0n> www.1337-hackers.tk
[07:12] <SeveredCross> His stuff is tab delimited, cut is perfect.
[07:13] <dem0n> have you heard of crax0r
[07:13] <bruenig> awk can do everything cut can, I hate having to know cut also so that I can read scripts
[07:13] <dystopianray> dem0n: what is the problem youa re having?
[07:13] <decavolt> dem0n, yeah, it's like p0tz0r, but harder to kick
[07:13] <dem0n> go to www.1337-hackers.tk look at the title
[07:13] <Kluever> decavolt: LOL
[07:14] <decavolt> dem0n, for the love of god.. just edit the <title> tag in your HTML...
[07:14] <dem0n> i did
[07:14] <decavolt> and pack a few less bowls before you decide to start coding
[07:14] <bruenig> that is an ugly site
[07:14] <dystopianray> dem0n: i think you're going to need another joint before you tackle this
[07:14] <dem0n> nah hold up ill send you my sorc code
[07:14] <karvec> i love weed
[07:15] <Taco`> karvec: shame on you
[07:15] <dystopianray> who doesn't
[07:15] <astro76> dem0n, we can see the source
[07:15] <WaxyFresh> ive been trying for days to figure out how linux dishes out process id numbers,anyone know?
[07:15] <decavolt> and, for the record... being a "1337 hacker" is pretty damn hard if you can't figure out how to alter the title of your page...
[07:15] <karvec> hey man, i've been clean for awhile
[07:15] <karvec> but i'm just an angry ex-pothead now
[07:15] <dem0n> yeah sec
[07:15] <bruenig> I think the source would be easier on the eyes than the actual page
[07:15] <karvec> i'm not chill anymore
[07:15] <decavolt> true, bruenig
[07:15] <Robomoore> I'm having some problems installing compiz can anyone help me?
[07:16] <Taco`> Robomoore: ask away
[07:16] <bruenig> !compiz | Robomoore
[07:16] <ubotu> Robomoore: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:16] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: incrementally starting from 0
[07:16] <karvec> bruenig, you're on again!  :D
[07:16] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: starting from 1 i mean
[07:17] <WaxyFresh> dystopianray: what do you mean by incrementally?my english isnt that good
[07:17] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: the first process 'init' is 1, then each subsequent process is just +1
[07:17] <decavolt> increment: 0,1,2,3,4... etc.
[07:17] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: so they just go: 1,2,3,4,5,6, etc..
[07:17] <toddy> WaxyFresh, where are 
[07:18] <bruenig> dystopianray, what happens to processes 2000-4000
[07:18] <pawan> done
[07:18] <RickH_> Is there a tool which will allow errant apps to trap to a debug viewer, rather than just shutting down and going away?
[07:18] <pawan> now
[07:18] <dem0n> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31765/
[07:18] <dem0n> source code
[07:18] <dystopianray> bruenig: nothing
[07:18] <WaxyFresh> dystopianray: then how come i can close an app and reopen and the PID will be muc much higher then before?
[07:18] <pawan> cant see audacious
[07:18] <bullgard4> IntuitiveNipple: My Ubuntu 7.04 did not install the DEB program package sleepd. Does the installation of sleepd have any beneficial effect if I have installed the GNOME Power Manager?
[07:18] <bruenig> dystopianray, how come nothing ever shows up between 2000-4000 in ps
[07:18] <dystopianray> WaxyFresh: because other programs have been randomly starting and stopping since
[07:18] <Robomoore> Taco`: I'm following this guide to install compiz fusion (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion) and I'm getting an error on a few lines, a friend was helping me work with it but I'm not exactly sure where they left me.
[07:19] <noldon> choudesh i got this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31766/ on the gpart scan
[07:19] <dystopianray> bruenig: becuase all those pids have since terminated
[07:19] <RickH_> Is there a tool which will allow errant apps to trap to a debug viewer, rather than just shutting down and going away?
[07:19] <dem0n> any one see a problem?
[07:19] <bruenig> dystopianray, right I figured but is there something about that range of processes
[07:19] <pawan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31767/
[07:19] <dystopianray> bruenig: i have about 20 processes within 2000-4000 right now
[07:19] <bruenig> looks like the daemons area of init
[07:20] <bruenig> that must be it
[07:20] <stopgo> anyone know how i can set up a firewire network?
[07:20] <bruenig> for my computer at least
[07:20] <joey__> what makes linux easier to hack with than windows? i mean technically couldnt you do the same stuff with windows or no?
[07:20] <dem0n> HELL NO
[07:20] <obf213> i keep get this, couldn't listen error on bittorent what does that mean/
[07:20] <dem0n> I SHOULD SMACK YOU
[07:20] <joey__> lol
[07:20] <obf213> that i can only dl one torrent?
[07:20] <frostburn> stop feeding the troll
[07:20] <dystopianray> stopgo: you need to load the firewire network driver, then you just get another network interface, setup as usual
[07:20] <karvec> dem0n, you can't even get apache working, please stop yelling, also...
[07:20] <Taco`> Robomoore: what's the errors?
[07:21] <karvec> dem0n well, not apache, but, you know
[07:21] <dem0n> well
[07:21] <WaxyFresh> joey__: you could do the same stuff with windows but you could also plow a field by hand...
[07:21] <bruenig> dem0n, wait so you mean to say that you don't want that title?
[07:21] <RickH_> bruenig:  Any ideas?
[07:21] <dem0n> i dont see you telling me what is wrong with it?
[07:21] <dystopianray> bruenig: there may be certain ranges and some minimal logic, but essentially the pids are assigned incrementally starting from 1
[07:21] <dem0n> no bruening
[07:21] <quaal> why is fdisk -l failing to list all my drives
[07:21] <quaal> when i plug this one drive in
[07:21] <karvec> dem0n, what's the site again
[07:21] <decavolt> dem0n, post your IP address and root pass and I'll be happy to fix it for you.
[07:21] <WaxyFresh> quaal: is it mounted?
[07:21] <Taco`> 1337-hackers.tk ?
[07:21] <dem0n> www.1337-hackers.tk
[07:22] <quaal> WaxyFresh, i just plugged it into the usb cable
[07:22] <GigaClon> quaal, you using sudo?
[07:22] <quaal> GigaClon, yes
[07:22] <bruenig> dem0n, just my opinion, I think that is a catchy title
[07:22] <karvec> and don't post that stuff, dem0n
[07:22] <quaal> it lists like 10 of them and then stops
[07:22] <Cola> how i can get the version for ubuntu ?
[07:22] <quaal> just hangs there
[07:22] <dem0n> no shit
[07:22] <decavolt> no, dem0n, don't post it.
[07:22] <dystopianray> ComunisTico: cat /etc/lsb-release
[07:22] <quaal> ctrl-c doesnt kill it
[07:22] <GigaClon> Cola uname -r
[07:22] <astro76> !language | dem0n
[07:22] <karvec> for one, don't use .tk
[07:22] <ubotu> dem0n: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:22] <Cola> ok
[07:22] <obf213> anyone know if you can only dl one torrent at a time.
[07:22] <stopgo> dystopianray: can you give me a pointer on how to load the firewire network driver?
[07:22] <Robomoore> Taco`: /var/cache/apt/archives/compiz-gnome_1%3a0.5.1+git20070728~3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb
[07:22] <Robomoore> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[07:22] <dystopianray> stopgo: I'm not exactly sure what it's called, I think it blacklisted too
[07:23] <dem0n> why?
[07:23] <WaxyFresh> obf213: you should be able to download more then one at a time
[07:23] <quaal> hmm
[07:23] <obf213> i keep getting this error called 98 adress already in use
[07:23] <dem0n> i aint paying for no domain nam
[07:23] <dem0n> name
[07:23] <karvec> use something like no-ip.com, that doesn't add extra stuff to your site
[07:23] <obf213> what does that mean
[07:23] <quaal> it doesnt even matter if its plugged in or not
[07:23] <stopgo> dystopianray: ok, i'll do some searching.  thanks!
[07:23] <mabus> obf213: the mainline client only downloads one at a time, per client. and functions best if you're just running one at a time. try another client though
[07:23] <dystopianray> stopgo: ok, edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[07:23] <WaxyFresh> obf213: try a diffrent torrent client
[07:23] <RickH_> Does anyone know if there's an app which will capture debug information about an app which is closed/shutdown when it has an error?
[07:23] <karvec> it would be something like 1337-hacker.hopto.org
[07:23] <dystopianray> stopgo: comment out the line with 'blacklist eth1394'
[07:23] <Taco`> Robomoore: that's the error?
[07:23] <bruenig> RickH_, just run it in the terminal
[07:23] <RickH_> Something like "This program has encountered a problem." and then a confirmation button?
[07:23] <karvec> or zapto, or any other name that they have
[07:24] <karvec> and set up their dns to point to your computer.  i've used .tk before, and they had a cover page and kept screwing with my site
[07:24] <dystopianray> stopgo: then: sudo modprobe eth1394
[07:24] <Robomoore> Taco`: I'm not actually sure, allow me to try to run the install from sudo apt-get install compiz compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compizconfig-settings-manager and I'll repeat the error
[07:24] <dystopianray> stopgo: you'll then have another ethernet interface
[07:25] <stopgo> dystopianray: got it, thanks :)
[07:25] <frostburn> is there a way to force an application to fullscreen?
[07:25] <frostburn> not alt enter
[07:25] <Roey> hi... I want to change the automount point from /media to /mnt, where do I specify this?
[07:25] <dystopianray> stopgo: it's blacklisted becuase it's rarely used and just confuses people
[07:25] <Taco`> flaccid: are you still there?
[07:25] <inaneframe> can anyone point me toward the best tutorial for rt61 wifi devices on 7.04?
[07:25] <stopgo> dystopianray: ah, that makes sense
[07:25] <dystopianray> Roey: you don't want to follow the FHS?
[07:26] <obf213> eh is qtorrent an good, that all i could find in repositories beside bittorent
[07:26] <inaneframe> ktorrent
[07:26] <Roey> dystopianray:  it's just that I have all my paths in amarok set to /media/music/... and /media/video/... (/media is another disk that holds my multimedia data)
[07:26] <inaneframe> use that obf213
[07:26] <bigfuzzyjesus> obf213: or azerus
[07:26] <inaneframe> it's KDE but it's alright
[07:26] <obf213> ok
[07:26] <dylanmoore> Hello, can anyone assist me with an ndiswrapper issue on a broadcom 4303 chipset?  i have driver and hardware present message.
[07:26] <Roey> dystopianray:  I suppsoe I could move it to /multimedia or /mma
[07:26] <inaneframe> it's very similar to utorrent
[07:26] <bigfuzzyjesus> obf213: are you on kubuntu
[07:27] <Roey> dystopianray:  but then I have to rename lots of links in amarok's .m3u's
[07:27] <inaneframe> can someone help me?
[07:27] <dystopianray> Roey: well it's probably for the best
[07:27] <obf213> bigfuzzyjesus, no.
[07:27] <dystopianray> Roey: /media is a standard directory according to the FHS
[07:27] <karvec> Taco`, got Xubuntu d/led and burnt
[07:27] <bigfuzzyjesus> obf213: personally i would use a gnome client
[07:27] <Taco`> karvec: any progress?
[07:27] <inaneframe> I need a good tutorial for rt61 wifi device
[07:27] <inaneframe> bigfuzzy: all of them suck
[07:27] <karvec> Taco`, nah, gonna try acpi=off
[07:27] <dem0n> LMFAO im broke im not paying for no domain
[07:27] <Phydoux> Why would youtube be freezing my browser?
[07:27] <bruenig> deluge
[07:27] <inaneframe> and that is the truth
[07:27] <Robomoore> Taco`: after running the command it requested that I run sudo apt-get -f install and it returned this error Errors were encountered while processing:
[07:27] <Robomoore>  /var/cache/apt/archives/compiz-gnome_1%3a0.5.1+git20070728~3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb
[07:27] <Robomoore> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[07:27] <astro76> Roey, you really shouldn't mount to the root of /media, if you really want to keep those paths, mount to subdir of /media, and make symbolic links (ln -s)
[07:28] <bruenig> Phydoux, because flash is terrible
[07:28] <obf213> bigfuzzyjesus, the default bit torrent keeps giving me an error, i have on torrent dling now it keep ssaying it can't listen to adress or some crap
[07:28] <karvec> I might just end up installing windows on it
[07:28] <dem0n> hey rabomoore
[07:28] <dem0n> pm me
[07:28] <inaneframe> obf just install ktorrent
[07:28] <dem0n> i can fix it
[07:28] <inaneframe> it's damn good
[07:28] <bruenig> Robomoore, do ls /var/cache/apt/archives/ | grep compiz.gnome and paste the output
[07:28] <inaneframe> best one available for gnu/linux
[07:28] <CountX> hey all, im having some issues setting up my laptop wireless card using ndiswrapper, can anyone spare some time to help me :)
[07:28] <Phydoux> I figured it was a crappy plugin or something
[07:28] <bigfuzzyjesus> obf213: try deluge
[07:28] <frostburn> don't install azureus, it's kind of borked right now
[07:28] <karvec> Taco, I might just end up installing windows on it, some lite xp version
[07:28] <inaneframe> who cares if it's not gtk?
[07:28] <bruenig> ktorrent has nothing on deluge
[07:28] <inaneframe> deluge?
[07:28] <bigfuzzyjesus> frostburn: deluge?
[07:28] <inaneframe> never used it
[07:28] <inaneframe> east?
[07:28] <Taco`> karvec: gotta do what you gotta do :/
[07:29] <inaneframe> easy?
[07:29] <bigfuzzyjesus> inaneframe: deluge is good
[07:29] <Taco`> inaneframe: http://deluge-torrent.org/
[07:29] <bruenig> deluge just recently got rss making it the best *nix client
[07:29] <inaneframe> hmm I'm going to have to give it a go
[07:29] <dystopianray> Roey: aren't amarok's playlists all referencing it's collection? so if you move the files the playlists don't need to be updated
[07:29] <dylanmoore> is there anyone who is  somewhat familiar with using ndiswrapper?
[07:29] <Taco`> dylanmoore: i am somewhat :D
[07:29] <bruenig> !wifi | dylanmoore
[07:29] <ubotu> dylanmoore: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:29] <inaneframe> HOLY SHIT
[07:29] <inaneframe> nice
[07:29] <inaneframe> gtk and utorrent compliant
[07:29] <karvec> Taco`, this is crap...  I had a "lite" version of winxp on it, and I guess I'll have to go back to that
[07:29] <inaneframe> sweeeeeeeeeeeet
[07:30] <inaneframe> thanks guys
[07:30] <Taco`> yep
[07:30] <inaneframe> love ya MWA
[07:30] <dylanmoore> ive looked at all the documentation
[07:30] <Robomoore> bruenig: compiz-gnome_1%3a0.5.1+git20070728~3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb
[07:30] <inaneframe> not in a gay way though
[07:30] <dylanmoore> and i have it seeing the driver and hardware
[07:30] <dylanmoore> just not connecting
[07:30] <bruenig> Robomoore, what is the %3
[07:30] <karvec> Taco, what's the chances of more people looking at a thread and trying to fix it?
[07:30] <bruenig> that confuses me
[07:30] <Robomoore> I... don't know
[07:30] <bigfuzzyjesus> inaneframe: language?
[07:30] <inaneframe> anyone here have a good tutorial for rt61 devices on 7.04?
[07:31] <inaneframe> English
[07:31] <dystopianray> bruenig: it's a http encoding
[07:31] <inaneframe> why?
[07:31] <Robomoore> that's what's repeated from the code
[07:31] <bruenig> Robomoore, I would recommend renaming it without the %3 and then dpkg -i it
[07:31] <karvec> dem0n, did you check out no-ip?
[07:31] <Robomoore> bruenig: ok
[07:31] <dem0n> yes it coast mony i dont have
[07:31] <Taco`> karvec: depends
[07:31] <karvec> dem0n, no it doesn't
[07:31] <Taco`> karvec: i've been lucky most of the time
[07:31] <Roey> dystopianray:  I just use files, not playlists.
[07:31] <karvec> taco, nod
[07:31] <dem0n> robomoore:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lvm2/+bug/86087
[07:32] <dystopianray> Roey: you don't use amarok's collection features?
[07:32] <Roey> dystopianray:  I meant playlists rather than collections, sorry
[07:32] <Roey> nah
[07:32] <karvec> click on no-ip free
[07:32] <inaneframe> I just need a good tutorial people, PLEASE
[07:32] <dystopianray> Roey: well using the collection would eliminate all issues involving the locations of files
[07:32] <Roey> dystopianray:  Because my id3tags are not in order anyway.

[07:35] <inaneframe> ubotu: thank you
[07:35] <Robomoore> bruenig: ok, will repeat output in a moment
[07:35] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[07:35] <dystopianray> berent: ok, so you need the intel hda audio driver
[07:35] <inaneframe> or astro
[07:35] <bruenig> Robomoore, use tab complete to finish filenames
[07:35] <inaneframe> thanks astro
[07:35] <bruenig> bullgard4, why did you address that to me
[07:35] <Roey> inaneframe:  how about using iwpriv instead of iwconfig
[07:35] <Roey> http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-user%40lists.debian.org/msg488577.html
[07:35] <Roey> inaneframe:  see that link

[07:36] <inaneframe> yeah, I am
[07:36] <Roey> ahh
[07:36] <elmajico> anyone got a link to a good feisty + wine article?
[07:36] <inaneframe> but I was using that on the usb device I had borrowed from a friend until I got this
[07:36] <bullgard4> bruenig: Because I have found as a rule that you are a knowleadgeable person in this channel.
[07:36] <bruenig> elmajico, sudo apt-get install wine, wine whatever.exe
[07:36] <berent> dystopianray :  should the option be hda_intel
[07:36] <Roey> bruenig:  you know, that statement sort of makes your time a valuable commodity here
[07:37] <bruenig> bullgard4, other people won't read it if you only address me

[07:37] <bruenig> bullgard4, but I don't know where gnome has you file bug reports

[07:40] <dystopianray> berent: oh wait sorry, wrong person, ignore what i said about filesystems
[07:40] <dystopianray> obf213: you should read up on the basics of unix filesystems so that you know what is going on

[08:08] <bruenig> sure
[08:08] <cactaur> BrendanM: to my knowledge, yes.

[08:08] <xnix> can anyone tell me the best desktop video card to buy if i Want to use open source drivers
[08:09] <Nullset> Anyone around ?
[08:09] <imMute> Nullset: no
[08:09] <Nullset> lol
[08:09] <justin2> Hello can anyone help me with sourceforge.net or point me to another IRC
[08:09] <justin2> I can't upload to CVS
[08:09] <Nullset> Earlier there used to be a installer cd with ubuntu
[08:09] <imMute> justin2: ask sf.net
[08:09] <DjMadness> xnix, if you want opensource drivers i would think ATI would be best, not sure if intels drivers are opensource though (i dont think so)
[08:09] <Nullset> now they have it combined with the live cd
[08:09] <Nullset> can i get the installer cd
[08:09] <justin2> Is there a sf.net IRC
[08:09] <justin2> I can't find one
[08:10] <xnix> DjMadness: i think intels cardsa re open source but i couldnt really find any decent desktop intel cards... do they make decent cards for desktops?
[08:10] <zades> Can anyone here help me quickly with fluxbox? Couldn't be bothered finding their chan
[08:10] <Nullset> i mean, a cd which allows me to install ubuntu
[08:10] <Nullset> not the live cd
[08:10] <Nullset> the live cd is slow
[08:10] <xnix> Nullset: its the same thing
[08:10] <DjMadness> xnix, they have some good onboard that i know of their latest series
[08:10] <xnix> right but ill need a motherboard with that on it
[08:10] <cactaur> Nullset: Do you want the alternate CD?
[08:10] <xnix> guess ATI is the best in that realm
[08:11] <Nullset> I want the cd which allows me to install ubuntu
[08:11] <BrendanM> there's an alternate text installer
[08:11] <Nullset> not the live cd
[08:11] <justin2> #sf.net
[08:11] <Nullset> which is slow
[08:11] <BrendanM> ok
[08:11] <DjMadness> xnix, i would wait untill they actually release the source though (ATI)
[08:11] <BrendanM> download the text install CD from cannonical
[08:11] <xnix> DjMadness: yeah who knows how long that will be
[08:11] <DjMadness> could just be a marketing trick they are doing.
[08:11] <Nullset> BrendanM : talking to me
[08:11] <Nullset> ??
[08:11] <reverseblade> taxi driver
[08:13] <BrendanM> yes Nullset
[08:13] <Nullset> well, i googled it
[08:13] <BrendanM> if you want an installer that isn't the live CD get the alternate text one
[08:14] <Lunis> is there a way to know the x and y coordinates of the mouse at a given time?
[08:14] <ledemente> Hi all. I'm having trouble opening some ports.
[08:14] <xnix> Lunis: xev
[08:14] <Nullset> btw, am i the only one who feels that installing through live cd's is slow
[08:14] <ledemente> I've forwarded them on the router, but still... it seems as though they're not active/open.
[08:15] <ledemente> Nullset: it's not that slow...
[08:17] <Nullset> Can anyone give me the link to the text based installer
[08:17] <elmajico> what is the Linux equal to ms visual studio? i need to c# .net dev
[08:17] <Nullset> i can't seem to find it
[08:17] <ledemente> elmajico: the mono framework is an equivalent to .net...
[08:17] <Nullset> wait!
[08:17] <Nullset> maybe i found it
[08:18] <Nullset> lo
[08:18] <Nullset> lol*
[08:18] <ledemente> but I don't know of a visual... IDE.
[08:18] <SeveredCross> MonoDevelop!
[08:18] <SeveredCross> You want the meebey repository first though.
[08:18] <xnix> ledemente, elmajico : monodevelop
[08:18] <SeveredCross> The latest MonoDevelop in Feisty is like...0.12.1 and the newest is 0.14 which is superior in every way.
[08:18] <xnix> is the visual app i guess
[08:18] <quaal> why does fdisk -l freeze midway through
[08:18] <quaal> and ctrl-c doesnt end it
[08:18] <ledemente> Ah cool.
[08:19] <ledemente> So, I suspect iptables might be to blame for this...
[08:19] <elmajico> xnix: so install monodevelop and meeby?
[08:19] <Nullset> yes i found
[08:19] <Nullset> it
[08:19] <ledemente> but I don't know how to check or change it.
[08:19] <Nullset> thanks guys
[08:19] <Nullset> i will install it after i download it
[08:19] <Nullset> :p
[08:19] <xnix> im not sure what meeby is, sounds like SeveredCross knows more about it
[08:19] <Nullset> Is dapper drake good enough
[08:19] <SeveredCross> ^_^
[08:19] <SeveredCross> Eek.
[08:19] <xnix> Nullset: no lol
[08:19] <SeveredCross> Dapper is fine but I'd really go to Edgy or Feisty.
[08:20] <Nullset> isn't dapper having 3 year support
[08:20] <SeveredCross> Uhh.....
[08:20] <fox129> hello how i can Know if my modem is detected or not ?
[08:21] <SeveredCross> Are you talking about LTS?
[08:21] <SeveredCross> fox129: lspci, look for a modem?
[08:21] <fox129> ok
[08:21] <Nullset> yesh
[08:21] <SeveredCross> Er, that just means you'll get package updates and stuff I think.
[08:21] <daedalus_> I am using the nVidia drivers and my s-video connection isn't being detected when I run "Detect Displays" - can anyone help me to force tv output?
[08:21] <Nullset> hrm, wont that mean a more stable version
[08:21] <xnix> Nullset: not necessarily, but it will definitely mean everyhting is older
[08:22] <SeveredCross> I suppose, but Feisty and Edgy are still pretty stable.
[08:22] <SeveredCross> Heck, even Gutsy is stable (I'm writing this from Gutsy)
[08:22] <xnix> same here
[08:22] <xnix> :P
[08:22] <Nullset> installatin requires 4 GB of HDD space
[08:22] <Nullset> Is it true
[08:22] <daedalus_> anyone have any ideas on the display issue?
[08:22] <SeveredCross> Installation of what? Feisty?
[08:22] <SeveredCross> daedalus_: nVidia binary driver?
[08:22] <JoshJ> What's a decent cheap digital camera that runs on ubuntu?
[08:23] <xnix> im not sure how much space it was using after install
[08:23] <Nullset> well, it just said installation on the site
[08:23] <JoshJ> (by cheap I mean like less than $100)
[08:23] <Nullset> I have a 6 GB partition
[08:23] <daedalus_> yes, it's the proprietary version
[08:23] <SeveredCross> Hmm...
[08:23] <SeveredCross> Nullset: I'm confused...Installation of what? What site?
[08:23] <daedalus_> it's run before, i'm using an adapter (svideo->rca)
[08:23] <SeveredCross> daedalus_: Hmm...Restarting X doesn't make it go?
[08:23] <Nullset> http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/desktopedition
[08:23] <daedalus_> i hooked it up to a television via svideo perfectly before
[08:23] <daedalus_> it detected when i hotplugged
[08:23] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[08:23] <Nullset> thats the link SeveredCross
[08:23] <ledemente> !iptables
[08:23] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[08:23] <SeveredCross> Maybe a driver update broke it?
[08:23] <daedalus_> but because of the adapter, the card isn't recognizing the tv
[08:23] <Nullset> the bottom of the page
[08:24] <ledemente> Hrmm...
[08:24] <Nullset> Ubuntu is available for PC, 64-Bit and Mac architectures. At least 256 MB of RAM is required to run the desktop install CD. Install requires at least 4 GB of disk space.
[08:24] <daedalus_> no, it simply isn't detecting the tv even though it is connected
[08:24] <daedalus_> the xorg.conf file is configured identically to the previous setup
[08:24] <SeveredCross> Nullset: I find that after a full install I have maybe 2 GB used.
[08:24] <SeveredCross> You might need 4 for temporary files and such.
[08:24] <Nullset> Dont you need to download all the shit from the internet
[08:24] <SeveredCross> daedalus_: No clue...Not familiar with the nVidia drivers so I can't even begin to suggest driver issues.
[08:24] <fox129> SeveredCross: am a newer in ubuntu acutly I love  it but now am useing it Under Vmware,
[08:24] <SeveredCross> !oops | Nullset
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oops - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <SeveredCross> Bah.
[08:24] <ledemente> Hahha
[08:25] <SeveredCross> Nullset: Watch your language please. :)
[08:25] <Nullset> oh sorry
[08:25] <slavik> fox129: has everything in ubuntu worked out so far for you?
[08:25] <SeveredCross> And you don't have to download anything from the internet....
[08:25] <daedalus_> thanks, should i just scour the forums for help?
[08:25] <SeveredCross> Except for the Mono stuff.
[08:25] <Nullset> hrm, earlier it used to be like that
[08:25] <SeveredCross> daedalus_: Probably a good bet.
[08:25] <Nullset> with beezy badger or whatever it was
[08:25] <daedalus_> in **windows**, yeah, i said it, forcing tv out would be simple
[08:25] <noldon> choudesh ive tried everything now and its gone
[08:25] <daedalus_> and i've found linux to generally give a lot more control over my hardware with the right coercing
[08:25] <Nullset> you guys are really good
[08:25] <Nullset> lol
[08:26] <SeveredCross> Yes, but nVidia's also poured their money into a Windows driver.
[08:26] <daedalus_> forcing tv output doesn't seem like a pricey feature
[08:26] <xnix> daedalus_: its not a matter of cost
[08:26] <SeveredCross> When I say pouring money I mean developer-wise.
[08:26] <stuart-> where do i change the PCM sound levels again? The icon on the taskbar doesn't seem to do it
[08:26] <HorizonXP> hey, is there a way to get Ubuntu to cycle thru my wallpapers?
[08:26] <SeveredCross> HorizonXP: Install WallpaperTray.
[08:26] <slavik> daedalus_: that's why I like linux, because _I_ am in control :)
[08:27] <daedalus_> yeah, excuse me for voicing my frustration excessively
[08:27] <SeveredCross> The package name is wallpaper-tray
[08:27] <daedalus_> i enjoy control, and _I_ would like to find a fix, although i wouldn't know where to start with video drivers
[08:27] <daedalus_> i'm familiar with the X org. file
[08:27] <fox129> SeveredCross: now, in Computer i see just ( floppy drive , Cd drive , filesystem ) indeed in Xp i have alot of partition but now i can't show it , How i can show it coz I have alot of file i need it to Ubuntu
[08:27] <AcE> is there a theme engine that uses gtk theme in qt apps?
[08:28] <daedalus_> it's properly configured for dual monitor w/ s-video output
[08:28] <daedalus_> but the hardware isn't detecting my second display
[08:28] <daedalus_> which is making things a little difficult
[08:28] <AcE> something like gtk-qt but other way round
[08:28] <SeveredCross> fox129: Do you have the partitions mounted in /media?
[08:28] <SeveredCross> Once they get into /media/ they get icons in the Places menu.
[08:29] <fox129> SeveredCross: How I can a mounted it ?
[08:29] <Samad> deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy-amd64 ....this returns command not found,,,can anyone help?
[08:29] <slavik> SeveredCross: any idea how to mount stuff to media and have it on places, but not on the desktop?
[08:29] <SeveredCross> slavik: I don't know that it's possible...
[08:29] <slavik> :(
[08:30] <JoshJ> Samad, what are you trying to do?
[08:30] <daedalus_> i'm tempted to write another xorg configuration file that would revert me to the open-source nv driver, maybe then i'd have the force tv-output feature b/c i'd trust the open-source community over the proprietary dev'ers to make things right
[08:30] <JoshJ> deb isn't a command line command
[08:30] <Samad> joshj: install compizfusion on feisty
[08:30] <JoshJ> Samad,  that looks like the syntax  for sources.list
[08:30] <JoshJ> ah
[08:30] <JoshJ> do gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:31] <JoshJ> and add that line to the end
[08:31] <JoshJ> maybe comment it so you know what it is in the future
[08:31] <fox129> SeveredCross: Tell me How I can mounted my drive ?
[08:31] <Samad> joshj: okay...thanks
[08:31] <HorizonXP> SeveredCross: That's perfect, thanks!
[08:31] <JoshJ> Samad, when you're done, do sudo apt-get update
[08:31] <JoshJ> then sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion or whatever the package name is
[08:31] <SeveredCross> You're welcome.
[08:32] <JoshJ> so i'm curious, what's the point of control-alt-tab?
[08:32] <Tenka> Hello i would like to know if there is a driver for a ricoh webcam (sony Vaio Build in) for ubuntu 64 bits
[08:32] <JoshJ> i can't seem to find a use for it
[08:32] <xnix> SeveredCross: do you have any experience compiling your own kernel packages
[08:32] <JoshJ> i see no reason to switch focus to a panel?
[08:32] <xnix> in ubuntu
[08:32] <SeveredCross> xnix: Are we talking rolling a new kernel>
[08:33] <SeveredCross> >=?
[08:33] <fox129> SeveredCross: answer me :(
[08:33] <JoshJ> Tenka, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaDigitalCamerasRicoh?highlight=%28ricoh%29
[08:33] <Nullset> Is edgy fine
[08:33] <Nullset> ?
[08:33] <Tenka> thank you joshJ
[08:33] <ledemente> SHOOP DE WOOP!
[08:33] <xnix> SeveredCross: i guess, just compiling your own into a package for installation, but i guess it wouldnt have to be into a package, thats just nicer
[08:33] <JoshJ> and here's sony https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaDigitalCamerasSony?highlight=%28camera%29%7C%28digital%29
[08:33] <ledemente> KTorrent started downloading again!
[08:33] <Nullset> I finally got this site from where i can download properly
[08:33] <Nullset> http://osmirrors.cerias.purdue.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/
[08:33] <choudesh> xtknight, how is the patch going?
[08:34] <xtknight> choudesh, not too well ;)
[08:34] <xtknight> choudesh, i will work on it tomorrow more
[08:34] <SeveredCross> fox129: Sorry, missed your question.
[08:34] <SeveredCross> !ntfs
[08:34] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:34] <SeveredCross> If you need to mount NTFS stuff, look in there ^^
[08:34] <JoshJ> !camera
[08:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about camera - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:34] <SeveredCross> You can follow that guide for pretty much any type of partition, as long as you know the filesystem.
[08:34] <JoshJ> blah
[08:34] <xnix> the best solution is to use fat32 in windows :P
[08:35] <JoshJ> ew
[08:35] <SeveredCross> Meh.
[08:35] <choudesh> xtknight, I finished my 4 monitor setup. All work and a resolution of 1680x1050 uses both an ATI and a nvidia card. ;-)
[08:35] <JoshJ> ntfs mounts fine for me
[08:35] <SeveredCross> NTFS is stable enough read/write.
[08:35] <JoshJ> seriously
[08:35] <SeveredCross> I have no issues using NTFs.
[08:35] <xnix> ah it wasnt last time i tried
[08:35] <JoshJ> unless you've got critical data i see no reason why you wouldn't want to mount ntfs
[08:35] <xnix> havent had to bother in a while
[08:35] <JoshJ> i literally transfer stuff directly to my windows partition
[08:35] <SeveredCross> Though I think I'm gonna go all ext3 or all reiser once I get some space to offload the stuff that's NTFS right now.
[08:35] <threethirty> Hi all
[08:36] <xnix> yeah i dnnt have any windows machines or partitions ro anything i was just figuring fat32 would be better for stability
[08:36] <choudesh> xtknight, my biggest issue was getting beryl/compiz to work on all 4 monitors and getting gnome to use aixgl and nvxgl.
[08:36] <JoshJ> xnix, "stability" and "fat32" don't go well together
[08:36] <xtknight> choudesh, ah i never could get it to work on dual monitors
[08:36] <threethirty> anyone interested in helping me with a simple evolution problem?
[08:36] <Roey> hey all, is there any progress on Flash?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/125131
[08:36] <JoshJ> i'm fairly sure microsoft has said don't use fat32 anymore
[08:36] <xnix> JoshJ: i agree but it was more stable than ntfs in linux last i read, but it seems its gotten better now
[08:36] <choudesh> xtknight, well, it is for a display next month in the art dept
[08:37] <choudesh> xtknight, I will write up a howto and post it on sourceseven.net
[08:37] <dylanmoore> hey everybody, can anyway offer any suggestions on why ndiswrapper sees my wireless, scans available APs, but does not connect or show up in network manager.
[08:37] <bruenig> Roey, no of course not, it is closed, ask adobe
[08:37] <acecase> threethirty, for the love of GOD, what do you need :)
[08:37] <choudesh> dylanmoore, let me guess. you are using a USB wifi card?
[08:37] <dylanmoore> nope, internal broadcom
[08:37] <xtknight> choudesh, ah cool
[08:37] <Roey> bruenig:  nono, I meant that if you read the discussion there, you'll see that there's an md5 mismatch in downloading flash-nonfree
[08:37] <bruenig> Roey, oh you are talking about the ubuntupackage, just get the actual thing and drop it into /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[08:38] <xtknight> choudesh, ive been wanting to use compiz dual monitors for awhile
[08:38] <Roey> yes
[08:38] <Roey> bruenig:  yes yes
[08:38] <JoshJ> grr
[08:38] <choudesh> dylanmoore, thank god. I help'd a guy earlier on the linksys usb issue.
[08:38] <Tenka> joshJ when i type lsusb i get Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05ca:1836 Ricoh Co., Ltd
[08:38] <choudesh> dylanmoore, hmm, what chipset is that broadcom
[08:38] <JoshJ> i need to look up how to mount NTFS read-write
[08:38] <choudesh> xtknight, pm me you email.
[08:38] <JoshJ> i'll do that tomorrow , too damn late for that tonight
[08:39] <dylanmoore> bcm4303 is what the hardware manager is showing, but sometimes in the terminal it shows 4301
[08:39] <JoshJ> Tenka, I know nothing about usb cameras beyond what i linked you to
[08:39] <JoshJ> i actually came in here originally to ask for a recommendation :p
[08:39] <Justi1> !mount
[08:39] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[08:39] <JoshJ> which is the only reason i was ever on that page
[08:39] <Tenka> joshJ thanks
[08:39] <choudesh> dylanmoore, what does lspci -vv show?
[08:39] <Justi1> !mounting
[08:39] <JoshJ> !diskmounter
[08:39] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[08:39] <JoshJ> bah like i said
[08:39] <JoshJ> i'll do it tomorrow
[08:40] <JoshJ> i'm technically capable and have done it before, don't bother yourself over me :p
[08:40] <Justi1> what does mounting or unmounting a disk do?
[08:40] <JoshJ> ah
[08:40] <JoshJ> lets ubuntu read it
[08:40] <JoshJ> (and write)
[08:40] <JoshJ> right now you have at least 2 partitions mounted
[08:40] <JoshJ> your / and swap
[08:40] <illsci> how would you use the find command to find all the files from 2006
[08:40] <JoshJ> if you made /home separate, you've got 3 mounted
[08:40] <Justi1> its letting me mount and unmount my root
[08:40] <slavik> !enter | JoshJ
[08:40] <ubotu> JoshJ: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:41] <fox129> brb Reboot
[08:41] <JoshJ> i'm fairly sure you shouldn't be able to unmount directories like /
[08:41] <dylanmoore>  Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[08:41] <dylanmoore>  Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[08:41] <dylanmoore>  Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[08:41] <JoshJ> it's supposed to be used on physical devices like /media/sda1 or /dev/hda1 or whatever (depending on version)
[08:41] <sdouble> I installed apache2 on my ubuntu machine through apt-get  Where is the httpd.conf file to edit?  I did a find for it and located it, but the file is empty.  This should not be the case or the server wouldn't run correctly.
[08:41] <acecase> JoshJ, actualy you can
[08:41] <dylanmoore> haha sorry
[08:41] <JoshJ> oh, interesting
[08:41] <dxdt> Hello, does anyone know about the hdparm -c flag?  It is the flag for 32 bit I/O, but I'm having problems setting a drive to 32 bit :-/
[08:41] <JoshJ> what's it do if you unmount / ?
[08:41] <dylanmoore> didnt realize i pasted so many times
[08:41] <choudesh> dylanmoore, in the future use pastebin.
[08:42] <JoshJ> and why does it let you mount it back when you should be... uh, missing the mount command entirely?
[08:42] <Doozer> my resolution in tty is all out of whack but its fine in gui
[08:42] <slavik> sdouble: cd /etc/apache2, it's the apache2.conf file, also in sites-available/ is an extra config file
[08:42] <Justi1> JoshJ: I don't know what its doing. the disk is the same size as my root partition, but when I open it, it says lost+found?
[08:42] <acecase> JoshJ, the same thing that it does if yuou unmount anything else. makes it inaccessable
[08:42] <dxdt> sdouble: it is apache2.conf with apache2 not httpd.conf
[08:42] <sdouble> ah, so it's not called httpd.conf.  tricky  =]   Thanks guys
[08:42] <choudesh> dylanmoore, try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2393714 first
[08:42] <slavik> anytime ... that I am here
[08:43] <acecase> JoshJ, that may or may not be possible (remounting it) some tools reside in memory during runtime but I don't think mount is one of them
[08:43] <Doozer> anyone know how to change the font or resolution in tty
[08:43] <JoshJ> right, but he just said he remounted it
[08:43] <JoshJ> which seems fairly... wrong
[08:43] <dxdt> Doozer: like when you do ctrl+alt+f1 and stuffs?  You have to change arguments in your kernel line  :-/
[08:43] <AcE> is there a theme engine that uses gtk theme in qt apps?
[08:43] <acecase> do coreutils reside in ram during runtime?
[08:44] <Nullset> Can i install windows on my d drive or e drive or anyother drive other then C drive
[08:44] <Justi1> what is 'lost+found'
[08:44] <Doozer> dxdt: yea
[08:44] <acecase> I'm recording Futurama on my ubuntu box rite now or i'd try it
[08:44] <slavik> acecase: prolly not, coreutils are ls, cd and such
[08:44] <HorizonXP> is there a good set of icons for Ubuntu? Like Tango, but better?
[08:44] <Nullset> Is it possible guys ??
[08:44] <slavik> acecase: unless I am mistaken
[08:44] <JoshJ> haha i think i managed to mess something up
[08:44] <JoshJ> sudo: cd: command not found
[08:44] <acecase> slavik, I wouldn't think so either.
[08:44] <dylanmoore> choudesk, i tried ndiswrapper with that extracted driver already.  its actually what i have on right now, its seeing the APs, but no connection
[08:44] <Justi1> what is lost+found?
[08:44] <JoshJ> oddly enough it lets me cd without sudo
[08:45] <JoshJ> for me, it's empty
[08:45] <ksivaji> is there anyone using  quanta here ?
[08:45] <JoshJ> i think it's just a folder for crap that gets messed up somehow
[08:45] <JoshJ> !lost+found
[08:45] <ubotu> lost+found is where !fsck places any files it gleans from a corrupt filesystem.  These are files which had become unlinked from their parent directories.
[08:45] <JoshJ> ah, yep
[08:45] <acecase> actualy mount would be part of diskutils rite? been a while since I used gentoo or lfs :)
[08:45] <Justi1> I hate windows
[08:45] <bcbooteRRR> hey wuts the command to reconfigure xorg ???
[08:45] <choudesh> dylanmoore, what that the HP driver?
[08:46] <JoshJ> Justi1, don't we all :)
[08:46] <slavik> bcbooteRRR: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:46] <Justi1> can I delete partitions from ubuntu, or do I have to boot from a live cd?
[08:46] <choudesh> dylanmoore, rather - was that the HP driver?
[08:46] <choudesh> !gparted  Justil
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gparted  justil - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <choudesh> !gparted | Justi1
[08:46] <ubotu> Justi1: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[08:47] <dylanmoore> choudesh, i downloaded the sp30379.exe from the hp site, extracted the drivers from the file
[08:48] <choudesh> dylanmoore, let me dig for a laptop with that in.
[08:48] <poningru> Justi1: you can if you umount it first
[08:48] <choudesh> dylanmoore, I got one around here. I think I have the link bookmarked on it...
[08:48] <poningru> or 'eject'
[08:48] <poningru> or 'unmount'
[08:48] <KaLeZ> some body has problems with the ubuntu 7.04 installer.?
[08:48] <dylanmoore> choudesh, okay
[08:48] <Justi1> its a random partition that windows created before its installer crashed
[08:48] <choudesh> dylanmoore, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683
[08:48] <choudesh> dylanmoore, that should work for you.
[08:48] <KaLeZ> stalls in trm290 ide driver..
[08:48] <acecase> Justi1, are you trying to setup a way to transfer files between linux and windows on a dual-boot system?
[08:49] <Justi1> acecase: I was trying to install windows on my computer that already has ubuntu, but the windows installer died halfway through
[08:49] <Justi1> acecase: grub got messed up and there were random partitions
[08:50] <acecase> Justi1, ic. sorry. don't you hate it when someone comes in on the tail end of something and tries to inject themselves into the conversation :)
[08:51] <Justi1> acecase: nah its cool:-D
[08:51] <Justi1> !calculator

[08:53] <DjMadness> equations. dont understand that word so don't know :S
[08:54] <Justi1> 2x + 4 = 10
[08:54] <Justi1> x = 3

[08:55] <DjMadness> Justi1, heres something that i found http://dailycupoftech.com/2007/05/18/dcot-apps-command-line-calculator/
[08:55] <acecase> probably others/better ones. thats the the first result google showed me for ti-89 emu
[08:56] <IdNotFound> Justi1: you may be looking for mathematical applications, such as MAPLE/Matlab equivalents, I guess?
[08:56] <DjMadness> oh crap thast win32.
[08:57] <DjMadness> a shame he left.. bc could handle it
[08:58] <IdNotFound> DjMadness: may I ask how?
[08:58] <dylanmoore> choudesh, i got an error about half way down
[08:58] <dylanmoore> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31770/
[08:58] <IdNotFound> I am a total noob with these math programs... I just tried maxima and octave, but couldn't find a way to solve it... they should be able to, though
[08:59] <choudesh> dylanmoore, try `sudo su` then try those commands again.
[08:59] <JBandP> my desktop didnt start properly. it said i have a problem in xserver or soemthing.  but its sitting at a boot screen with the cursor blinking. but it doesnt allow me to run any commands.   is there some sort of control X i can do to get back to command prompt?
[08:59] <acecase> IdNotFound, sometimes it's harder to learn to use the app/calc than it is to learn the processes/functions themselves. Should be a college course on the ti calcs
[09:00] <acecase> JBandP, can you do ALT+F2?
[09:00] <JBandP> thats it. thanks :)
[09:00] <acecase> np :)
[09:01] <IdNotFound> acecase: that reminds me of vim... the more you use it, the more there is to learn... it's like doing a Ph.D every other month :)
[09:01] <JBandP> what do i use to edit on command prompt?  nano?
[09:02] <DjMadness> IdNotFound, that i personally dont know... i am looking for a guide that explains it on google..
[09:02] <SeveredCross> I like nano.
[09:02] <acecase> IdNotFound, I can't make myself stop using vim. with nano I put extra I(s) all over the place
[09:02] <acecase> JBandP, lol use nano
[09:02] <duke> ??
[09:02] <duke>  
[09:03] <DjMadness> IdNotFound, http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6131
[09:03] <IdNotFound> acecase: vim is amazing... I find myself doing "ESC:w" every now and then, on every kind of window :)
[09:03] <acecase> :)
[09:03] <duke> 
[09:03] <matti> duke: You look confused.
[09:03] <Lo_Pan> ZZ
[09:03] <duke> 
[09:03] <duke> 
[09:03] <DjMadness> duke, i doubt many understand chineese etc in here ^^
[09:03] <Hirvinen> !ch | duke
[09:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ch - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:03] <JBandP> is there a way i can recreate the xorg.conf file?
[09:04] <ideogram> I am chinese but I can't really read it
[09:04] <duke> :-<
[09:04] <duke> ..
[09:04] <amidaniel> !zh | duke
[09:04] <ubotu> duke: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[09:04] <duke>     o  .i know
[09:04] <IdNotFound> DjMadness: I'm not sure how that is solving equations? Isn't that just describing the Diffie-Hellman Algorithm?
[09:05] <JBandP> and how can i connect my network from command line?
[09:05] <duke> thank you.
[09:05] <acecase> JBandP, you will need to know a little about your video card (and maby somthing about your display if its non-standard) but it's not bad to learn to configure xorg by editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:05] <ideogram> I have three disks, want to install both xubuntu and xp on the first, use the 2nd for xp data, and the 3rd for /home
[09:05] <JBandP> maybe i dont even need a desktpo gui
[09:05] <JBandP> i pooched my xorg.conf trying to setup my monitor.
[09:05] <ideogram> I installed xp, then when I tried to partition things with the xubunutu installer it couldn't format the partitions
[09:05] <acecase> JBandP, ifconfig is the tool used to configure the network manualy
[09:05] <ideogram> has anyone done this before?
[09:06] <JBandP> can i START eth0 somehow?
[09:06] <amidaniel> ideogram: Sure, it's not difficult. What's the problem you're having?
[09:06] <acecase> JBandP, ubuntu may have a network setup script/tool for the command line like netsetup but I don't know it :)
[09:06] <lietu> JBandP: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" should recreate your xorg.conf
[09:06] <arooni> hey folks
[09:06] <lietu> JBandP: depends, do you use dhcp?
[09:06] <acecase> JBandP, to start eth0 is ifconfig eth0 up
[09:07] <ideogram> it said it couldn't format the 3rd hard disk fillesystem
[09:07] <arooni> folks
[09:07] <arooni> anyone have any reviews of ubuntu on an abit ib9
[09:07] <ideogram> if you like I can do it again and get the exact error
[09:07] <arooni> ?
[09:07] <amidaniel> ideogram: That would be helpful
[09:07] <Hausberg> I have a default install but I want to switch from gnome as default to fluxbox - with autologin
[09:07] <acecase> JBandP, sorry it's       sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[09:07] <ideogram> ok give me about 40 minutes
[09:07] <NeoGeo64>  03:03:51 up 33 min,  2 users,  load average: 2.21, 1.82, 1.30
[09:07] <NeoGeo64> thats my uptime heh

[09:09] <Robomoore> nino: I'm having that issue aswell, what is the error you recieve?
[09:09] <JBandP> sudo ifconfig eth0 up didnt do anything.  it just retrned the the command prompt?
[09:09] <acecase> JBandP, now just do a sudo ifconfig
[09:10] <nino> Robomoore: in the gui it just says "Can not enable desktop effects"
[09:10] <acecase> you should see eth0
[09:10] <buntunu1> or eth1
[09:10] <JBandP> i see it there,
[09:10] <ideogram> sorry, I need to reinstall xp from scratch
[09:10] <amidaniel> JBandP: What are you doing?
[09:10] <acecase> JBandP, do you use DHCP
[09:10] <Robomoore> what are you doing? install by gui or terminal?
[09:10] <JBandP> but wheni was at my gui before i always had to clickon the network and selecteed "wired network" manual for it to connect. now im at the command line and dont have that option :
[09:10] <JBandP> :)
[09:10] <Robomoore> nino:  what are you doing? install by gui or terminal?
[09:11] <nino> gui.
[09:11] <firebird619> Could someone help me in getting 1680x1050 resolution? My card is an Nvidia Geforce FX5200 (Dell). My xorg.conf file is pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31769/.
[09:11] <nino> and then terminal.
[09:11] <Robomoore> nino: how?
[09:11] <nino> I'm going back and forth trying anything.
[09:11] <JBandP> firebird61:i have almost the exact spec.  i coulnt get it working :)
[09:11] <nino> synaptic / terminal / System menu.
[09:11] <Robomoore> nino: any guide you're following?
[09:12] <nino> several.
[09:12] <nino> I'm 100% sure something is missing in my xorg.conf
[09:12] <buntunu1> firebird your xorg is already setup for that reso
[09:12] <firebird619> JBandP: So is the highest res you can get 1280x1024?
[09:13] <JBandP> yup.
[09:13] <acecase> firebird619, what drivers are you using?
[09:13] <firebird619> buntunu1: I know, but it is not an option in System, Preferences, Screen Resolution or nvidia-settings.
[09:13] <JBandP> the weird thing is is that the first time i installed it the res was great. now ive reinstalled and it's f*cked. ive been at it for days now.  that and my wireless.
[09:13] <nino>  Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support
[09:14] <nino> Any ideas?
[09:14] <buntunu1> firebird it should already be set to that
[09:14] <firebird619> acecase: The drivers installed by Envy. I've also used the Restricted Drivers Manager drivers as well.
[09:14] <buntunu1> you only have one reso in your conf but you should have lower than that selectable
[09:14] <lietu> JBandP: I asked you, do you use dhcp?
[09:15] <JBandP> yes i do.
[09:15] <arooni> where can i learn about mobos that are compatible with ubuntu?
[09:15] <firebird619> buntunu1: It isn't though. It is at 1280x1024. I do have lower resolutions available. I just took all the other resolutions out tonight in trying to get it to work, otherwise I had 4 other resolutions in there.
[09:15] <acecase> firebird619, I had that problem the first time I installed ubuntu but I can't remember what I had to do. Seems like it may have been a groups issue. May want to see if you have a video group and if so that your user is a member.
[09:15] <ideogram> does anyone know anything about amule?
[09:15] <lietu> JBandP: then "sudo ifconfig eth0 up; sudo dhclient eth0" should do it
[09:15] <buntunu1> you can try reloading your nvidia drivers
[09:15] <firebird619> acecase: Ok, I can check into that. Thank You
[09:16] <lietu> JBandP: or, /etc/init.d/network* restart (cannot remember if it's called network or networking)
[09:16] <ideogram> if I point amule at the temp folder from my emule will it take over downloading the files ok?
[09:16] <acecase> firebird619, sorry I can't remember what it was for sure.
[09:16] <firebird619> buntunu1: I have tried that several different times already.
[09:16] <IdNotFound> lietu: networking
[09:16] <lietu> JBandP: assuming you have the necessary modules loaded for your network card
[09:16] <buntunu1> make sure your screen can support that reso too
[09:16] <arooni> what a waste of my time
[09:16] <firebird619> acecase: thats ok.
[09:16] <arooni> where can i learn about mobos that are compatible with ubuntu?
[09:16] <buntunu1> in console type nvidia-settings &
[09:17] <ideogram> I don't know of any mobos that aren't linux compatible
[09:17] <lietu> arooni: there shouldn't be any that are more or any that are less supported
[09:17] <JBandP> things look to be ok now. i got back to my desltop (at the wrong res) and i manually clicked on the network to start it.  i still have no wireless and my display is competely wrong..
[09:17] <firebird619> buntunu1: Yes it can. it is a Westinghouse LCM-22w2 22-inch. The native res is 1680x1050
[09:17] <arooni> lietu: well i got one abit ib9 that required a driver to read from IDE drives
[09:17] <arooni> i dont want to do that again
[09:17] <acecase> I haven't messed with Xorg much since about the time the source was broken up into modules (that long). Back when Xconfigurator was the configuration wizard :)
[09:17] <buntunu1> k try changing it in nvidia-settings
[09:18] <firebird619> buntunu1: change what? The highest resolution it lists anywhere is 1280x1024.
[09:18] <Hausberg> buntunu1 well I don't want to switch completely to a different installation or reinstall I just want to get fluxbox as a default option and with autologin
[09:18] <lietu> arooni: well, it's half-way impossible for the ubuntu community to keep a list of ALL the motherboards, or even MOST ones that work, and the ones that work with a little effort, especially as you would have to do extensible testing on every single component on them
[09:19] <ledemente> I've opened port 80, but still my site is not showing up.
[09:19] <lietu> ledemente: do you have apache running?
[09:19] <firebird619> I have never had ubuntu at 1680x1050, however, other distros, such as Fedora 7, use that res out-of-the-box, including the live CD. I prefer using ubuntu though.
[09:19] <ledemente> yes...
[09:19] <duiliotadeu2007> Hi, anyone can give me a hint on installing kubuntu in a notebook hp dv 6263cl ?
[09:20] <JBandP> So far im regretting the fact that i installed ubuntu.  sucks, cause i was really looking forward to making the swtich.  but i really dont see how a professional is supposed to spend this much time on something.
[09:20] <ledemente> JBandP: how do you mean?
[09:20] <JBandP> i mean, certaqin aspects of this os are a nightmare.
[09:20] <ledemente> lietu: yes, I do.
[09:20] <lietu> ledemente: "netstat -lpn|grep 80" does that show you httpd?
[09:20] <buntunu1> Hausberg you can sudo apt-get install fluxbuntu-desktop for that
[09:20] <JBandP> to get my wireless working i have to soft through all sorts of crap on video cards.
[09:21] <JBandP> every hour i spend on tis is lost money..
[09:21] <buntunu1> that will give you both buntu desktops with optional logins
[09:21] <JBandP> and my video doesn't work properlty either-even though i tried ten times and even though it had worked the first time.
[09:21] <firebird619> buntunu1: Any other suggestions as to how I may get this resolution working?
[09:21] <acecase> firebird619, if I may interupt again. is your DefaultDepth key set to 24?
[09:21] <buntunu1> sec firebird
[09:21] <firebird619> acecase: yes, I am pretty sure it is.
[09:22] <JBandP> well, i already bought a mac, so thats one step away from ms.  but perhaps ubuntu is just not the way to go.
[09:22] <acecase> :)
[09:22] <lietu> ledemente: I did not ask you to message me, please do not do so
[09:22] <ledemente> Sorry.
[09:22] <n2diy> JBandP: and windows isn't a nightmare? I just spent two hours helping a friend set up an HP all in one, on XP, and it still isn't working yet.
[09:22] <Hausberg> buntunu1 what does it bring additionally? I just made sudo apt-get install fluxbox. I can choose fluxbox session from gdm and probably make it default but it won't autologin
[09:22] <ledemente> Anyway, I'm not sure what it's showing.
[09:22] <lietu> ledemente: is it showing you one line only?
[09:22] <ledemente> yes
[09:22] <acecase> JBandP, I wouldn't go to linux just to go away from MS. Linux is a lot like a women. you have to like it a lot not to hate it a lot
[09:22] <lietu> ledemente: paste please
[09:22] <JBandP> n2diy: i don't like windows(if i did i would be using it still, no?) but it was 100x easier than this.
[09:22] <acecase> at least in the beginning
[09:22] <ledemente> unix  2      [ ACC ]      STREAM     LISTENING     17806    5567/nautilus       /tmp/orbit-lestat/linc-15bf-0-283443490464
[09:23] <lietu> ledemente: ok that's a socket, not the port 80 ;) ... that tells me, and you, that apache is either not running, or not running on port 80
[09:23] <lietu> ledemente: try /etc/init.d/apache restart or /etc/init.d/httpd restart, can't remember which
[09:24] <ledemente> is that the same as apache2ctl restart?
[09:24] <JBandP> acecase:i wen to mac to get away from MS.  ubuntu is something i wanted to setup internally.  I read a lot and tried it once before ...
[09:24] <bullgard4> What is the relation of the file /usr/bin/gnome-power-bugreport.sh with a bug report?
[09:24] <lietu> ledemente: basically yes
[09:24] <buntunu1> firebird https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto?highlight=%28resolution%29
[09:24] <korhalf> is there an alternative to Real Player for Ubuntu?

[09:24] <lietu> ledemente: after that, check the netstat again, if it stilll doesn't show up, see /var/log/httpd/* for possible errors
[09:25] <duiliotadeu2007> anyone had experience on installing ubuntu on notebook hp dv 6263cl?  I cant eve start the live cd.  After a lot of research on internet, I found some "fixes" to do, but X11 dont starts, and xorg.conf is incomplete.
[09:25] <ideogram> linux still takes a lot of time, if you don't enjoy spending the time don't use it
[09:25] <ideogram> I bought a mac for my dad since I don't want to spend time administering it
[09:25] <ideogram> works great
[09:25] <buntunu1> duiliotadeu i am on a dv2415nr right now
[09:25] <n2diy> JBandP: Well, we'll see, a year ago, my same friend was running Ubuntu, but he ditched to go back to Winders. No he has a network setup, and a bunch of new hardware, but he is clueless on how to set it up. The old Ubuntu box is in the closet, and I'll be redeploying that this week. First goal is to get the Ubuntu box up an running, and talking here.
[09:25] <acecase> gotta run. see ya*
[09:26] <lietu> ledemente: well, is it working?
[09:26] <firebird619> buntunu1: I have tried that Howto, however, when I run the ddcprobe command it says to use, it doesn't return anything. The monitor is connected via DVI.
[09:26] <arooni> does a mobo exist that:  supports core 2 duo, 4 SATA hookups, 4 PATA hookups (2 channels of ide basically), 2 PCI slots, 2PCIexpress slots, 1 PCIexpress graphics slot ?
[09:27] <arooni> that works with ubuntu
[09:27] <JBandP> it's physically too much time to invest.  it sucks too because all i have left to do is my video and my wireless(so i can tuck this machine in the closet).
[09:27] <rezoom> firebird619 - have you tried nvidia_glx_new?
[09:27] <buntunu1> firebird did you do Option "UseEdidFreqs" "false"
[09:27] <duiliotadeu2007> buntunu1:  have you heard about santa rosa ? This is one problem that I had to work on.   But I dont understand why the X11 don't starts or even why xorg.conf is incomplete.
[09:27] <firebird619> rezoom: No I haven't. Do you think that may help.
[09:28] <ledemente> lietu: nope, just a sec
[09:28] <buntunu1> havent heard of that duiliotadeu
[09:28] <firebird619> buntunu1: Where does that option go. Does that go into xorg.conf?
[09:28] <JBandP> how do i go from my desktop gui back to command line?
[09:28] <buntunu1> yes firebird
[09:28] <JBandP> is there a quit or something:?
[09:28] <rezoom> firebird619: nvidia_glx_new has more resolution definitions
[09:28] <buntunu1> its in that guide under nvidia section
[09:28] <ideogram> you can shift f2 or something like that
[09:28] <firebird619> buntunu1: No I haven't used that. What section does it go under.
[09:28] <ideogram> and then kill the X server
[09:29] <buntunu1> screen section
[09:29] <firebird619> rezoom: and those drivers will work with Geforce FX5200
[09:29] <ideogram> or was it alt--f2, or maybe ctrl-f2
[09:29] <ideogram> anyway that gets you a console login
[09:29] <firebird619> buntunu1: Ok, I can give that a try.
[09:29] <bullgard4> JBandP: One possibility: Open a terminal.
[09:29] <IdNotFound> JBandP: ctrl+alt+f-key switches from X to tty
[09:29] <rezoom> fb619 - they might - worth a try
[09:29] <ideogram> he wants to exit the gui
[09:29] <ideogram> the terminal will give you a command line within the guig
[09:30] <IdNotFound> JBandP: F1 to F4 is tty, F7 should bring you back to X
[09:30] <buntunu1> when you change xorg you have to restart x
[09:30] <n2diy> JBandP: ctrl+alt+F1 to got to a terminal, ctrl+alt+F7 to get back into X.
[09:30] <ideogram> so if you just want to type a command without exiting the gui that will work
[09:30] <JBandP> since i cant get the gui working i might as well just hit command line (which feels like a really lame reason to only use command line)
[09:30] <firebird619> rezoom: yes, it certainly is worth a shot.
[09:30] <JBandP> but terminal still means xserrver is running, no? i want to quit it.
[09:30] <ledemente> Hrm... how might I reset iptables?
[09:30] <ideogram> JBandP: do you know how to find and kill processes?
[09:31] <firebird619> buntunu1: Yes, I am going to restart x now. I will come back here and let you know if that worked.
[09:31] <JBandP> system-->qUIT
[09:31] <buntunu1> k
[09:31] <ideogram> or maybe you need to do /etc/init.d gnome stop
[09:31] <JBandP> i found it system-->quit
[09:31] <firebird619> Thats for all of your help so far.
[09:31] <anthony_> Hi, I have a local windows network.. I have successfully connected via remote desktop (telnet) to one of the machine.. my problem is how can I get to know the IP by just giving in the name of the PC i want to connect to?
[09:31] <ideogram> I mean sudo /etc/init.d gnome stsop
[09:31] <firebird619> Thanks*
[09:31] <ideogram> maybe someone here can help you get the gui working
[09:32] <ideogram> what is the problem?
[09:32] <ledemente> lietu: well... there are no logs where you said... o_O
[09:32] <tobias_> Hello ubuntu people, I am unable to install the official nVidia driver after my X server was complaining about unable to load its module. I am currently using the command line, and the installer complains about missing "kernel-" smt rpms. What did I do wrong?
[09:32] <JBandP> ideogram: i wanted to shutdown the gui and go command line only (since my gui doesnt work right).  i figured it out though
[09:32] <JBandP> but i guess my problem overall is my wireless does not work and my resolution on my screen is screwed.
[09:33] <n2diy> tobias_: you loaded RPMs!
[09:33] <ideogram> quiting the gui isn't going to help your wireless
[09:33] <tobias_> n2diy, I didnt, it was a .run file
[09:33] <firebird619> buntunu1: Unfortunately, that option did not work.
[09:33] <ideogram> switching your resolution takes editing your xorg.conf file which takes a little time
[09:33] <JBandP> ideogram:i know. but my res it messed up and it's driving me crazy.
[09:34] <ideogram> but it's not hard once you know how
[09:34] <n2diy> tobias_: then the run file loaded RPMs, Ubuntu/Debian doesn't use RPMs. Where did you find the .run file?
[09:34] <OnTheRocK> Hello everybody
[09:34] <buntunu1> k not totally sure what the issue is firebird
[09:34] <JBandP> ideogram: i found a modeline generator and configured it right from the manual of my monitor.  xorg crashed and wouldnt start gnome.
[09:34] <firebird619> buntunu1: Ok, Thank you for your help.
[09:34] <tobias_> n2diy, it comes from nvidia's official driver download pages
[09:35] <ideogram> you shouldn't need a modeline generator
[09:35] <buntunu1> sorry give good ol google a shot that usually works for me
[09:35] <ideogram> http://www.linux.com/feature/118108 try that
[09:35] <firebird619> Right now I have the drivers installed by Envy, To install the nvidia-glx-new drivers, do I have to uninstall the other drivers first.
[09:35] <OnTheRocK> Bye
[09:35] <buntunu1> if nothin else i just yell at my machine for a while till it decides to work :)
[09:36] <n2diy> tobias_: then you selected the wrong DL. Ubuntu only uses .deb packages. I'm not sure how to help you from here.
[09:36] <firebird619> buntunu1: Yes, google does usually help out, but I have been searching it and ubuntu forums for a few days now trying different things, but no luck.
[09:36] <tobias_> n2diy, I always used the official drivers and they worked fine until last update
[09:36] <korhalf> !beryl

[09:36] <firebird619> buntunu1: does the yelling usually work? :)
[09:37] <buntunu1> lspci and such too
[09:37] <buntunu1> yes strangely it sometimes does
[09:37] <n2diy> tobias_: Which flavor of Ubuntu? Maybe it is a bug?
[09:37] <buntunu1> the dam thing just fixes itself sometimes
[09:37] <tobias_> n2diy, I think its officialy 6.10, but I'm unsure because my last attempt to upgrade to 7.04 kinda stopped halfwaythrough
[09:37] <firebird619> buntunu1: I wish mine would do that.
[09:38] <buntunu1> well sometimes after a reboot or two it just works
[09:38] <pibarnas> hi folks. I have dozens of files that have a space as the first "character" and I'd like to eliminate these spaces... how can I do that?!?
[09:38] <n2diy> tobias_: I think I caught part of that thread, your laptop lost power during the upgrade?
[09:38] <firebird619> buntunu1: Do I need to uninstall the envy drivers before trying nvidia-glx-new drivers?
[09:38] <hinogi> moin
[09:38] <buntunu1> dont think so
[09:39] <tobias_> n2diy, No, its not a laptop and no, it did not lose power. I tried multiple times
[09:39] <jbjuly> hello, I want to know, do I need to run hdparm in order to enable DMA on Feisty?
[09:39] <firebird619> buntunu1: Ok, Thanks. I will give them a try now and hope for the best.
[09:39] <buntunu1> never tried envy tho i always install nvidia drivers manually
[09:39] <n2diy> tobias_: Ok, wrong thread then. Did your upgrade go ok?
[09:39] <buntunu1> gluck
[09:39] <firebird619> buntunu1: Thanks
[09:39] <tobias_> n2diy, No, it didnt. I dont know the exact translation but my dutch version complained about an "unsolvable problem" with upgrade-manager
[09:40] <firebird619> buntunu1: I'll let you know if the nvidia-glx-new drivers do the trick.
[09:40] <buntunu1> ok
[09:40] <rezoom> fb619 - nvidia_glx_new is part of the Add/Remove
[09:41] <rezoom> for 7.40
[09:41] <n2diy> tobias_: Ok, what was your upgrade path? 6.06 to 6.10? With a CD, or online?
[09:41] <tobias_> n2diy, 6.10 to 7.04 via the embedded updater (online I think that is)
[09:42] <asfalt> hi guys, whats the best solution to be able to stream .mp3 streams from radio websites? i guess not so much the best but most popular, i think i used xmms with gstreamer on my previous install think
[09:42] <firebird619> rezoom: Yes, and I am running 7.04. I just installed them through synaptic and am going to restart now and see if that fixes the problem.

[09:43] <firebird619> buntunu1: Ok. Thank You. I
[09:43] <firebird619> I am going to restart now and see if the drivers helped.
[09:43] <firebird619> be back soon.
[09:43] <n2diy> tobias_: Ok, online upgrades aren't as reliable as using the CD, from what I understand. So that might be part of the problem. And I only use plain jane video hardware here, so I can't help with that either, sorry, good luck.

[09:44] <ideogram> I want manual, right?
[09:44] <bcbooteRRR> is there a way to get the windows normal again while runnin gberyl, liek being able to resize, close them etc easily
[09:44] <jwcgator2> if you wanna edit them yourself~
[09:45] <ideogram> amidaniel: still here?
[09:45] <savvas> how can i find all *~ files (temporary files like text1~) and delete them?
[09:46] <ideogram> oh well, can anyone help me install xubuntu so it shares the first hard drive with xp and uses another hard drive for /home?
[09:46] <ideogram> I tried using the manual partitioning tool and it failed when putting the filesystem on the other drive
[09:47] <ideogram> savvas: rm *~ ?
[09:47] <savvas> ideogram: I wouldn't recommend having linux and windows on the same partition
[09:47] <ideogram> i had it working back when I was using debian
[09:47] <savvas> ideogram: I meant all the files :p
[09:47] <ideogram> man find
[09:47] <jwcgator2> It doesnt have to be on the same partition lol
[09:48] <tupa> kidbuntu, you made it, bravo :P
[09:48] <jwcgator2> he said to share a "drive" lol
[09:48] <ideogram> oh yeh, I am partitioning the first disk
[09:48] <kidbuntu> tupa: yeah thanks hahaahah
[09:48] <ideogram> that should be obvious
[09:48] <kidbuntu> tupa: should i ask the whole channel again?
[09:48] <savvas> jwcgator2: usually they mix that up, so I thought... anyway
[09:48] <tupa> kidbuntu, I just told you how to install it, when it installs I think it should ask you if you wanna use xdm
[09:49] <savvas> ideogram: try resizing and format with partition magic within windows, it should be easier
[09:49] <korhalf> can someone direct me to a guide that shows u how to set up Beryl on ubuntu
[09:49] <kidbuntu> tupa: i did'nt note it down is it 'sudo apt-get install xdm" right?
[09:49] <buntunu1> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[09:49] <ideogram> no savvas, I'm doing a fresh install
[09:49] <n2diy> korhalf: /join #ubuntu-effects?
[09:49] <ideogram> the partition is already sized correctly
[09:50] <tupa> kidbuntu wait, I was wrong, xdm is for X not for xfce
[09:50] <rezoom> hey guys I just want to listen to radio stream of www.klif.com, I just can't seem to get it to work. Any solution?
[09:50] <kidbuntu> tupa: ok then what is it?
[09:50] <tupa> kidbuntu, do you want the xfce desktop environment?
[09:50] <asfalt> rezoom apt-get install audacious
[09:51] <savvas> ideogram: windows & linux fresh installs? so you install windows xp first, then use the advanced installer in ubuntu (don't know about xubuntu, but logically it has to have the same install guide)
[09:51] <buntunu1> insert the link to the station into the radio section of Rythmbox
[09:51] <rezoom> thanks asfalt - i'll try
[09:51] <jwcgator2> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=512325 someone HAS to have seen this error or something similar before :<

[09:51] <rezoom> thanks buntunu1
[09:51] <kidbuntu> tupa: yep. is there a way where everytime my Ubuntu boots up. i can choose what desktop environment i can use.
[09:51] <buntunu1> np
[09:52] <tupa> kidbuntu you should with your current display manager
[09:52] <savvas> !medibuntu | asfalt
[09:52] <ubotu> asfalt: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[09:52] <tupa> kidbuntu theres a button that says sessions at login prompt

[09:54] <tupa> kidbuntu oh, and BTW, there's no such thing as Desktop Manager (IIRC). you confused me :P, it is called desktop environment, I mistook it for display manager
[09:54] <PaulEU> I tried find on website but I didn't find :/
[09:54] <kidbuntu> tupa: should i choose yes for "install these packages without verification?y/n?
[09:54] <tupa> kidbuntu yes
[09:54] <astro76> !uuid | PaulEU
[09:54] <ubotu> PaulEU: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[09:54] <kahrytan> Whats the technical name for Ubuntu logo for menu?
[09:55] <kidbuntu> tupa: thanks a lot. your're a fountain of knowledge

[09:56] <buntunu1> jwcgator2 looks like a bad cd burn
[09:57] <n2diy> buntunu1: he already quit.
[09:57] <Nuked> I have just finished configuring lirc on ubuntu feisty x86_64... my question is how to actually control the computer using it
[09:58] <korhalf> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/compiz-gnome_1%3a0.5.1+git20070728~3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/compiz/libgconf.so', which is also in package compiz-plugins
[09:58] <tupa> Nuked, why compiling it when already in the repository?
[09:58] <buntunu1> i replied to his post anyway
[09:59] <n2diy> tupa: he quit too3
[09:59] <n2diy> too.
[10:00] <tupa> n2diy -_-, yup
[10:00] <korhalf> any ideas?
[10:00] <Nuked> anyone know how to control ubuntu using lirc?
[10:01] <kahrytan> Whats the technical name for Ubuntu logo for menu?
[10:01] <n2diy> Nuked: how could you control a computer with an irc client?
[10:01] <kahrytan> n2diy: He said lirc
[10:01] <tupa> n2diy, lirc is software for remote controls
[10:01] <Nuked> n2diy: its not an irc client.. its for remote control
[10:02] <kahrytan> lirc is used by mythtv users
[10:02] <tupa> Nuked, control worked out of the box for a friend, he used the repository package though
[10:02] <tupa> Nuked, why are you compiling?
[10:02] <Nuked> I mean, its properly configured... I just dont know what the hell to do with it now
[10:02] <n2diy> Nuked: tupa: kahrytan, ok my apologizes, it looks like a an irc cliend from it's name.
[10:03] <n2diy> ! lirc
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lirc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <tupa> I feel like ubotu lacks a lot of information
[10:03] <Nuked> tupa: I wasnt compiling... just diligently following a guide I saw on the ubuntu forum
[10:03] <tupa> dpkg from #debian has lots of info
[10:04] <Nuked> tupa: I just dont know how the remote is supposed to control things now
[10:04] <PaulEU> is it possible that change bootloader at instalation ? I'd like have a lilo
[10:04] <tupa> Nuked, ahhh sorry, I read that as "compiling" instead of configuring, its past 3 AM here :|
[10:05] <Nuked> tupa: its 4 am here
[10:05] <PaulEU> I don't like grub :/
[10:05] <tupa> :O
[10:05] <savvas> Nuked: there's some info here: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Lirc and on google: http://tinyurl.com/2h39pe
[10:05] <tupa> PaulEU then use LILO
[10:05] <Leonus> ubuntu is way overrated
[10:06] <Happu> so am I
[10:06] <cyberphaz> wrong channel to spout your ubuntu hate leonus
[10:06] <cyberphaz> try the offtopic one
[10:06] <Leonus> pclinux and dreamlinux are much better and user friendly distros
[10:06] <tupa> good one Happu :P
[10:06] <PaulEU> tupa: I ask: when I install ubuntu it doesn't give me choice: grub or lilo
[10:06] <savvas> Leonus: glad for your overreaction, you're off topic though
[10:06] <cyberphaz> well then leave this channel...
[10:06] <Happu> tupa: thanks :)
[10:06] <kahrytan> Whats the technical name for Ubuntu logo for menu?
[10:07] <n2diy> Leonus: so go brag about them in their channels, if anybody is there to listen?
[10:07] <Leonus> and no I don hate ubuntu
[10:07] <Flannel> Leonus: please take non-support to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks
[10:07] <Nuked> savvas: the first link looks promising
[10:08] <tupa> PaulEU what's wrong with grub
[10:08] <kahrytan> Someone's gotta know answer to my question
[10:08] <Leonus> it's just that that it's hyped too much while mandrake and other distros have been for years
[10:08] <tupa> kahrytan "Ubuntu logo"?
[10:08] <n2diy> Leonus: so go brag about them in their channels, if anybody is there to listen?
[10:08] <PaulEU> tupa: I have some others systems and its simpler for me
[10:08] <tupa> kahrytan, there you go
[10:08] <savvas> Nuked: well google search (the second one) should provide other sources as well :)
[10:08] <bullgard4> What is the relation of the file /usr/bin/gnome-power-bugreport.sh with a bug report?

[10:10] <cyberphaz> dude
[10:10] <kahrytan> savvas: You saw straight throug my ques :-P
[10:10] <Flannel> Leonus: You're offtopic, you're welcome to continu this discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic, but not here.
[10:10] <cyberphaz> go whine about it someplace else this is a support channel not a distro war channel
[10:10] <n2diy> Leonus: we have tons of support here, that is what makes Ubuntu. If your other distro channels are lonely, I'm sorry.
[10:10] <kahrytan> savvas: How'd you know that was next ques?
[10:10] <noldon> my partition table is completely lost
[10:11] <tupa> PaulEU what do you mean?, you have some other systems (I'm taking a guess here and you are talking about Operative systems), how does not having grub is simpler for you?
[10:11] <savvas> kahrytan: i used google search :p http://www.google.com/search?q=+%22how%20to%22%20+change%20+ubuntu%20+logo%20+menu

[10:12] <NETWizz> Hi
[10:13] <NETWizz> I broke ubuntu
[10:13] <NETWizz> I made an image of it
[10:13] <NETWizz> then restored it to test it
[10:13] <NETWizz> My backup lan is not good
[10:13] <Leonus> let's say your one of the lucky ones to hear it ... too bad google is becoming another microsoft... cant way for them to buy UBUNTU and start charging for  it
[10:13] <n2diy> NETWizz: what was your backup/restore system?
[10:14] <Flannel> !ops
[10:14] <n2diy> I though Flannel was an op?
[10:14] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti or mneptok
[10:15] <firebird619> buntunu1: the nvidia-glx-new drivers did not work. X failed and I ended up using Envy in cli to install those drivers and x still failed so I reconfigured xorg.conf and now I have 1680x1050, but compiz fusion, and therefore awn isn't working.
[10:15] <tupa> Leonus it actually looks like a "NEW BRANCH OF UBUNTU" not Google buying Ubuntu
[10:15] <Myrtti> what
[10:15] <bullgard4> Why can I not select a package in the field 'Package' of  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/+filebug as the button to the right suggests?
[10:15] <Myrtti> Flannel: what's wrong?
[10:15] <Leonus> at the end of the day ubuntu will be... the system not for human beings but for google monopoly  ... just wait next year people... you will be surprised
[10:15] <savvas> kahrytan: it's distributor-logo.png - type in terminal: locate distributor-logo

[10:18] <firebird619> Is the line to add to xorg Option "Composite" "true" or Option "Composite" "enable"?
[10:18] <hinogi> enable
[10:18] <Flannel> !install | eprator
[10:18] <ubotu> eprator: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[10:18] <Bo2> I have no sound and I don't know why.
[10:18] <Flannel> eprator: first link there
[10:18] <hinogi> hopefully you don't have an ait card firebird619
[10:18] <Trentster> Hey all can someone help with NTOP, I am trying to get the historical data charts to show totals, can anyone offer some input on this?
[10:18] <n2diy> eprator: yes, keep a log book, of what you do, so you can refer to it in a situation like this.
[10:19] <firebird619> hinogi: No I don't. Is that the only time you add that line?
[10:20] <hinogi> Section "Extensions"
[10:20] <hinogi> don't forget that one ^^
[10:20] <hinogi> EndSection
[10:20] <Bo2> I have no sound and it's not on mute, can someone tell me what's wrong?
[10:20] <savvas> Bo2: you have no sound using what application?
[10:21] <firebird619> hinogi: Yes I know, but what is it that goes in the Extensions section. "enable" or "true" for "Composite"?
[10:21] <nicle> did you install the alsa driver?
[10:21] <Bo2> I have no sound at all.
[10:21] <Bo2> Alsa driver?
[10:21] <hinogi> enable
[10:21] <firebird619> hinogi: Ok, Thank YOu
[10:21] <nicle> yeah, a sound driver
[10:21] <hinogi> actually doesn't matter i guess
[10:21] <Nuked> savvas: I have to manually configure lirc for each program I want it to control?!
[10:22] <Bo2> How do you install it?
[10:22] <hinogi> even 1 would do i guess
[10:22] <n2diy> Bo2: I'm not trying to be smart, this has happened to me, make sure your speakers are plugged in the right place, and turned on.
[10:22] <hinogi> for the binary option
[10:22] <savvas> Nuked: no idea man, never tried the remote
[10:22] <Gasten> Hey, where do I change ubuntu's default resolution when you boot eith the monitor switched off?
[10:22] <Bo2> Yeah it is. I have a laptop. xP
[10:22] <choudesh> n2diy, I believe we are all guilty of that.
[10:22] <hinogi> i guess they are a bit flexible when it comes to those terms
[10:23] <n2diy> choudesh: you are an honest person! :)
[10:23] <Bo2> How do I install the alsa driver?
[10:23] <firebird619> hinogi: What else do I have to do to get Compiz Fusion working again. It is all installed, it's just that after reconfiguring xorg, they do not work anymore. I used the nv driver instead of nvidia driver, is that maybe why fusion quit working?
[10:23] <savvas> Bo2: close your sound programs and try this: sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base alsa-utils
[10:23] <reverseblade> !alsa | Bo2
[10:23] <ubotu> Bo2: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[10:23] <eprator> n2diy: the guide i'm looking for explained copying the iso itself, not the contents to the usb stick, which makes it easy to swap flavours as wel, feisty/gutsy, server/desktop
[10:23] <hinogi> compiz --replace
[10:23] <hinogi> done ^^
[10:23] <hinogi> yes drivers might be an issue
[10:24] <nicle> Bo2: apt-get install  alsa-base alsa-utils alsa-oss alsa-tools
[10:24] <hinogi> just check the Xorg.0.log
[10:24] <reverseblade> Bo2, also there is an IRC channel of #alsa, finally you can compile the source and build the module yourself . It works
[10:24] <firebird619> hinogi: Ok, because just compiz --replace does not work. I will work on it. Thanks for your help.
[10:24] <hinogi> or glxinfo or such
[10:24] <n2diy> eprator: ok, does that include the stuff needed to boot from the stick? You need more than an image to boot, no?
[10:24] <Flannel> eprator: and : https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html isn't it?
[10:25] <nicle> Bo2: then run -> sudo alsamixer
[10:25] <Nuked> this is a nightmare
[10:26] <kahrytan> Nuked: what is

[10:26] <kb> lol
[10:26] <NETWizz> Ubuntu is built off of Debian right?
[10:27] <NETWizz> Is Suse Built off of Red Hat?
[10:27] <kahrytan> NETWizz: yes
[10:27] <NETWizz> or Fedora
[10:27] <NETWizz> I notice Both SUSE and Fedora use YUM
[10:27] <n2diy> NETWizz: they are brothers.
[10:27] <NETWizz> and RPM
[10:27] <kahrytan> NETWizz: Ubuntu is based on Debian
[10:27] <eprator> n2diy: as i remember, vmlinuz and initrd.gz, itried to cat a boot.img to the usb stick but i leaves me with a smaller capacity, 256MB instead of 1GB, which is to small for a ubuntu iso, the gutsy server version is 460MB
[10:27] <Nuked> kb: kahrytan getting this godforsaken remote to work
[10:27] <n2diy> NETWizz: no RPMs, debs.
[10:27] <kb> :P
[10:27] <Bo2> Nothing worked
[10:27] <kahrytan> NETWizz: I dare you to goto #debian and ask for Ubuntu help :-P
[10:27] <NETWizz> Suse and Fedora are brothers?
[10:28] <unagi> i thought they were sisters
[10:28] <Nuked> kahrytan: CHILLLLL they would probably try to strangle you over the internet
[10:28] <eprator> n2diy: i tried the same with debian and a netinstall iso and it worked, but i need ubuntu :)
[10:28] <n2diy> eprator: ok, your are a head of me, haven't managed that yet.
[10:28] <Jamesinator> I'm trying to set up a basic alarm through crontab, but what command should I use to play and endlessly loop a sound file until the task is killed?
[10:28] <kahrytan> Nuked: Hence the dare and :-P
[10:28] <unagi> anyone know the name of the network util defaulted in mandriva or if there is one for ubuntu similar to it?
[10:29] <eprator> damn, are the any smaller ISOs available for ubuntu? in the 200MB range?
[10:29] <kahrytan> #debian folks don't like #ubuntu folks
[10:29] <n2diy> eprator: check out mondorescue.org, tha might help you, but the Ubuntu repos. are out of date, so get the latest stuff you can find.

[10:32] <PluzHalp> damn IS a curse word
[10:32] <kahrytan> Ubuntu couldnt fit on a flash drive
[10:32] <eprator> i thought about creating a tut after i managed to boot the iso from usb, but then didn't, arg!

[10:33] <Bo2> I have no sound either.
[10:33] <PluzHalp> kahrytan, last time I check there a flash drivers of 16GB
[10:33] <kahrytan> PluzHalp:  thats cheating

[10:34] <n2diy> choudesh: nn
[10:34] <PluzHalp> kahrytan, minimal installation soon will be obsolete given the absurdly huge amounts of space in current solid/flash drives
[10:35] <kahrytan> Cyberjames: but a real hdd is cheaper i bet
[10:35] <cyberphaz> likely yes
[10:35] <nicle> Bo2:  sudo apt-get install  alsa-base alsa-utils alsa-oss alsa-tools
[10:35] <eprator> does debian syslinux work on a bootable usb stick for ubuntu
[10:35] <nicle> Bo2: then run-> alsamixer
[10:35] <PluzHalp> let me see, the next LiveBlue-Ray will include ALL apt-get inside Ubuntu
[10:36] <kahrytan> http://www.linux.com/distributions/
[10:36] <PluzHalp> ok please how can I SSH with a live Ubuntu Cd?
[10:36] <PluzHalp> err, my bad
[10:36] <Bo2> Done. Now what?
[10:36] <PluzHalp> with Alternate CD
[10:36] <eprator> PluzHalp: see if you van run the ssh daemon
[10:37] <Bo2> I think I did this before and I put everything up.
[10:37] <PluzHalp> any LiveBlue-Ray distros yet?
[10:37] <kahrytan> my bad ... http://www.linux.org/dist/
[10:37] <kahrytan> for all the linux flavors you want toknow about

[10:37] <PluzHalp> sorry
[10:37] <PluzHalp> !grub
[10:37] <n2diy> eprator: I think an ssh server needs to be running on the other end?
[10:37] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:37] <Bo2> Except theres no bar for IEC958
[10:37] <nicle> join alsa
[10:37] <PluzHalp> eprator, actually I am trying to fix my grub WITHOUT having to re-install the entire goddamn thing
[10:38] <NETWizz> HOw is PCLinuxOS?
[10:38] <Bo2> I did
[10:38] <urie1> hello
[10:38] <nicle> Bo2: did u run the alsamixer?
[10:38] <urie1> sos, i need help
[10:38] <n2diy> urie1: rr
[10:39] <PluzHalp> anyone had an experience with fixing Grub??
[10:39] <Jonnodriver> Hello  new to this chat stuff and irc
[10:39] <Flannel> PluzHalp: Whats wrong with reinstalling GRUB?
[10:39] <urie1> 3 things, lets start with the first 1 my sound is ont workinnnng  ihave audigy live
[10:39] <wckdkl0wn> how would i set this up to upload a file on my desktop?  http://nullcortex.com/irclogs/puthtml.txt
[10:39] <wckdkl0wn> specific file
[10:39] <urie1> *not
[10:39] <asfalt> another lame and probably asked too many times question. but what is the best way for me to access my ipod on ubuntu (upload music to it) and still maintaining it compatible with win itunes, amarok?
[10:39] <n2diy> urie1: #2?
[10:39] <urie1> i installed the dirver with apt-get
[10:39] <urie1> no luck
[10:40] <PluzHalp> Flannel, I can't boot in the first place 'cause I did the installation on a different RIBBON then I switched the ribbon and I can't boot anymore
[10:40] <Bo2> Yes
[10:40] <NETWizz> Ubuntu is getting too easy
[10:40] <eprator> PluzHalp: i think you can boot from the livecd and fix grub from there
[10:40] <n2diy> urie1: #2?
[10:40] <Bo2> I ran alsamixer.
[10:40] <urie1> second its seems that the nvidia driver is the slow 1 and i cant change it to nvidia drivers
[10:40] <PluzHalp> eprator, how
[10:40] <n2diy> urie1: #23
[10:40] <Flannel> PluzHalp: right, you need to reinstall GRUB, not Ubuntu, just grub.  You need to point stage1 of grub (thats the stuff on the MBR) to your new HD location
[10:40] <n2diy> urie1: #3
[10:40] <knoppix> my /sbin/route is damaged
[10:40] <knoppix> how can i repair that problem?
[10:41] <PluzHalp> Flannel, how
[10:41] <urie1> 3, is not so important i've seen videos about the the multimedia effects in ubuntu that 3d stuff wonder how to see these options here
[10:41] <NETWizz> I did that yesterday
[10:41] <Flannel> !grub | PluzHalp
[10:41] <ubotu> PluzHalp: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:41] <NETWizz> Just boot the live cd and open a console
[10:41] <Flannel> PluzHalp: first link there
[10:42] <PluzHalp> omg, I just did that
[10:42] <Bo2> I ran alsamixer
[10:42] <eprator> Pluzhelp: get the alternative install cd, not the live, and from the option list after you've configured the keyboard layout choose the option to install the boot loader
[10:42] <NETWizz> This worked for me
[10:42] <NETWizz> mount-text3/dev/hda2/mnt/root
[10:42] <NETWizz> Only mine was sda1
[10:42] <|thunder> Who is General Failure and why is he reading my disk?
[10:42] <Bo2> Does anyone else have no sound?
[10:42] <Flannel> PluzHalp: you must have done something wrong then.  Which section on that page did you do?
[10:42] <NETWizz> Then I did this grub-install--root-directory=/mnt/root/dev/hda--recheck
[10:42] <eprator> Pluzhelp: you should mount your root partition first
[10:43] <NETWizz> @thunder, General Failure is a Microsoft Commander
[10:43] <n2diy> |thunder: he works for M$p
[10:43] <urie1> Bo i am
[10:43] <|thunder> NETWizz; n2diy ;   hehe
[10:43] <NETWizz> He used to work for Microsoft, but now he just reads your disk and faults your protection
[10:43] <Flannel> PluzHalp: is your harddrive currently at hda?
[10:43] <|thunder> lol
[10:43] <nicle> Bo2: what's words at the bottom of the "Master" and "PCM"? "00" or "MM"
[10:43] <MSTK> can anyone help me with something?  I'm trying to get a system up: All new terminals automatically connect to an existing SCREEN session
[10:43] <urie1> because i installed fiesty
[10:43] <MSTK> right now I'm just changing the .bashrc
[10:44] <Bo2> 00
[10:44] <Bo2> Wait
[10:44] <NETWizz> He reminds me of Kernel32 Error
[10:44] <MSTK> but this means that whenever I open a Screen window, it attemps to connect to screen
[10:44] <MSTK> inside of screen
[10:44] <NETWizz> Don't know that guy either, but he is annoying
[10:44] <Bo2> Master has 00 and PCM is blank
[10:44] <urie1> i have on master 100
[10:44] <urie1> and still not sound
[10:44] <NETWizz> Microsoft hasn't compiled a kernel since Vista
[10:44] <Bo2> PCM has nothing there.
[10:44] <n2diy> Are they related to Kernel Panick?
[10:44] <PluzHalp> Flannel, ok I have LVM2 installation how can do this with the Alternate CD? Since I've gotta mount / as well
[10:45] <urie1> n2diy: can u help me with 1 of the things ?
[10:45] <Flannel> PluzHalp: Oh, this is LVM?  Alright.  Do you have /boot on a separate partitio?
[10:45] <urie1> please :)
[10:45] <urie1> gfd
[10:45] <Parisi_Work> zzz
[10:45] <n2diy> uriel, what flavor of Ubuntu? Nvidia or an Ati video card?
[10:45] <PluzHalp> NETWizz, don't be a snob a say ms properly: m$$$
[10:45] <urie1> its old nvidia card
[10:45] <Flannel> PluzHalp: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-ec3e41291c7a5a7b61d7827299415204067765de is instructions using alt CD.  You do need to make sure /boot is on it's own (non-LVM) partition thoug
[10:45] <urie1> geforce 2 ti
[10:46] <wckdkl0wn> how do i edit a cron job again?
[10:46] <nicle> Bo2: whit's your lspci?
[10:46] <Flannel> !cron | wckdkl0wn
[10:46] <ubotu> wckdkl0wn: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[10:46] <PluzHalp> Flannel, thanks, of course is not on lvm
[10:46] <SoulRaven> hy, how i install from the net, but not from the cd....i have tu install gcc, and my server is remote........
[10:47] <n2diy> uriel, most of the problems here relate to Nvidia and Ati cards, I run plain jane video, so I can't help you. If you don't find held here, give #ubuntu-effects a try, good luck.
[10:47] <urie1> apt-get install gcc
[10:47] <Flannel> SoulRaven: using apt-get, if it's prompting for your CD, you'll want to comment out the CD from your repos
[10:47] <Bo2> 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[10:47] <Bo2> 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[10:47] <urie1> ok
[10:47] <urie1> what about the sound ?
[10:47] <Flannel> Bo2: tx1000?
[10:48] <Bo2> Huh?
[10:48] <urie1> i have audigy live with previous    version of ubuntu 6.06 it worked
[10:48] <urie1> not its not
[10:48] <n2diy> uriel, in a terminal, what happens when you enter alsa?
[10:48] <SoulRaven> Flannel: where i find the repos file?
[10:48] <Flannel> SoulRaven: /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:48] <urie1> now its not*
[10:48] <urie1> alsa command not ofund
[10:48] <fyrestrtr> there is a package that lists icecast/shoutcast/live365 for playing, like a media player for online radios -- anyone know what I am talking about?
[10:48] <urie1> did u mean alsamixer ?
[10:49] <Flannel> Bo2: try adding `options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=3stack position_fix=0 single_cmd=0` to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[10:49] <n2diy> uriel, did alsa work in 6.06?
[10:49] <urie1> i dunno i didnt need to use it at all after installation it worked ..
[10:50] <n2diy> uriel, ok, is your speaker icon on the toolbar?
[10:50] <urie1> yes
[10:50] <Bo2> Flannel: How do I add it?
[10:50] <urie1> full volume - still no sound
[10:50] <n2diy> uriel, ok, can you right click it, and open it?
[10:50] <Bo2> urie1 has the same problem as me.
[10:51] <urie1> opened it ,
[10:51] <fyrestrtr> Bo2: what hardware are you using?
[10:51] <Flannel> Bo2: `echo "options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=3stack position_fix=0 single_cmd=0" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base` or with a text editor
[10:51] <n2diy> uriel, ok, move all your sliders to 3/4, and play around with your click boxes, good luck.
[10:52] <urie1> ?
[10:52] <n2diy> urie1: ??
[10:52] <urie1> its not working man
[10:52] <urie1> no sound no matter how much i will play with it
[10:52] <n2diy> urie1: you can't move the sliders, or check the click boxes?
[10:53] <urie1> i can
[10:53] <urie1> but its not affecting anything
[10:53] <Bo2> Didn't work.
[10:53] <fyrestrtr> urie1: are you on a laptop?
[10:53] <Bo2> Im on a laptop.
[10:53] <n2diy> urie1: keep playing, your in, you just need to find the right settings.
[10:53] <fyrestrtr> Bo2: which one?
[10:54] <PluzHalp> Flannel, "When the Ubuntu splash screen comes up with the boot: prompt, type in rescue and press enter." <--- I just got a kernel panic by doing this. Doesn't it mean to select the rescue option in the Splash menu?
[10:54] <urie1> ?
[10:54] <eprator> urie1: whats up
[10:54] <urie1> man
[10:54] <Bo2> Flannel's echo "options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=3stack position_fix=0 single_cmd=0" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base thing
[10:54] <Flannel> PluzHalp: Selecting rescue will work too, yeah (used to not have that fancy menu)
[10:54] <urie1> iam ok thank god
[10:55] <urie1> i am telling u all seems fine its just ont playing anything
[10:55] <r0b-> is it possible to make the ubuntu desktop run through a proxy
[10:55] <Bo2> urie1 has the exact same problem as me.
[10:55] <Helmi> guys i got a bigger problem that i can't find a solution for...
[10:55] <Flannel> Bo2: Just adding it won't work, you've gotta let the changes take effect.  Which, I'm sure there's a way to do without restarting, but I don't know it offhand.
[10:55] <Flannel> r0b-: What do you mean?
[10:55] <zv1n_fire> PowerPC G4, Airport wireless -- I installed the bcm43xx-fwcutter -- the wireless internet SHOULD work correct?
[10:56] <Bo2> Ahhh, ok.
[10:56] <n2diy> Bo2; urie1, ok crank your sliders all the way up, and keep trying.
[10:56] <r0b-> well an SSH tunnel
[10:56] <Bo2> I did.
[10:56] <r0b-> like SSH to my friends box
[10:56] <r0b-> and run gnome here but use his IP
[10:56] <Flannel> Bo2: (I hate to say it but...) restart and see if it fixes it
[10:56] <Helmi> i got a Pentium 4 2,8 GHz, 2 GB Ram, Nvidia GeForce 6200 - with TwinView setup. My system hangs every view seconds especially when using firefox but sometimes generally. these "hangs" are only for a view moments but in that time i can't click anything or type anything. does anyone have tipps how i could solve this?
[10:56] <Bo2> Ok.
[10:57] <Helmi> (running feisty with gnome)
[10:57] <Flannel> r0b-: You'd have to be running gnome on his box
[10:57] <urie1> nada
[10:57] <r0b-> and i cant do that via SSH can i?
[10:57] <fyrestrtr> r0b-: use vnc
[10:57] <urie1> maybe this kernel is broken
[10:57] <r0b-> i dont wanna use VNC
[10:57] <fyrestrtr> r0b-: if you want to use his desktop, then use vnc. If you want to use his IP address, install squid on his computer.
[10:57] <r0b-> its slow
[10:58] <Flannel> r0b-: You can.  Yeah, it's fully possible to tunnel X through SSH
[10:58] <urie1> cause from all i see here everything seems fine just not sound comes out
[10:58] <r0b-> now do i do an X Tunnel
[10:58] <urie1> ok what about the 3d stuff ?
[10:58] <n2diy> urie1: if you see the icon on the tool bar, and can play with it the sound daemon is running, the problem is elsewhere, speakers, cables, volume control, etc...
[10:58] <fyrestrtr> r0b-: tunneling X through ssh is the same as using vnc, it will be slow.
[10:58] <Flannel> r0b-: lots of howtos on the internets.  But you're stuff has to be installed on his box to run it.  You're box basically is a thinclient with that scenario
[10:58] <PluzHalp> zv1n_fire, good luck with that wireless, and let me know when you have it working
[10:59] <r0b-> i gotta find out why my SSH tunnel died
[10:59] <PluzHalp> zv1n_fire, the darn thing never worked for me
[10:59] <urie1> windows, plays fine
[10:59] <r0b-> noooo!
[10:59] <r0b-> it died
[10:59] <fyrestrtr> urie1: if you are using intel 'high definition'/digital sound card, and sliders work, but there is no sound output, you have two choices (from personal experience). 1. If you are on IBM laptop, make sure the built-in modem is *enabled* from your BIOS 2. In all other situations, compile the latest version of ALSA (this fixed it for me)
[11:00] <pawan> hi
[11:00] <Bo2> Hi.
[11:00] <urie1> to compile ?
[11:00] <Rimers> Hi everybody, anyone got some knowlage of Feisty Fawn and USB? i got some problems getting my tv card to be recognised eventhough it worked fine in Dapper
[11:00] <Bo2> I restarted and it didn't work.
[11:00] <urie1> i dont like compiation me like .deb packages
[11:00] <nicle> Bo2 : did u run the alsaconf ?
[11:00] <urie1> ok what aobut the nvidia how do i install the driver
[11:01] <urie1> maybe i jsut did it wrong
[11:01] <urie1> what are the steps
[11:01] <Bo2> How do I run alsaconf?
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> urie1: there are instructions in the wiki to do it.
[11:01] <r0b-> hey isnt X Forwarding
[11:01] <r0b-> just using -X
[11:01] <Happu> fyrestrtr: are you using ICH8?
[11:01] <r0b-> ???
[11:01] <n2diy> urie1: they play in windows, good. You have the icon on the tool bar, and can right click on it, so the daemon is running. It is a config problem, or loose nuts between the keyboard and monitor. :) ;)
[11:02] <urie1> can u link me please ?
[11:02] <unagi> linux would be the ultimate os if i could get it to do everything i want it to do =/
[11:02] <pawan> hi

[11:02] <Bo2> nicle: how do I run alsaconf?
[11:02] <urie1> config problem where ?
[11:02] <PluzHalp> unagi, what's what is not doing?
[11:03] <Ace2016> Hi all
[11:03] <Ace2016> where is /etc/apt/preferences ???
[11:03] <nicle> Bo2: just type the command: alsaconf in the shell
[11:03] <Ace2016> i tried to open it but it did not find the file
[11:03] <unagi> well i mean u cant sort icons by type and u cant sit desktop icons on the right side automatically
[11:03] <n2diy> urie1: mute is selected, or one of the click boxes under/near a slider isn' selected, play, experiment!
[11:03] <Bo2> Ahh, I did, but it says command not found
[11:03] <fyrestrtr> Happu: no, ICH7
[11:03] <azi> anyone here using init-ng succesfully? i was just wondering if it is worth give it a try..
[11:03] <nicle> Bo2: if the command is not found, you should run: sudo apt-get install alsa-tools
[11:03] <fyrestrtr> Bo2: you need to install alsa-tools
[11:04] <urie1> but it looks fine
[11:04] <urie1> its a bug somewhere
[11:04] <r0b-> im lovin SSH right now
[11:04] <Happu> fyrestrtr: ok. thanks
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> urie1: its an issue with alsa.
[11:04] <Ph0b0s> why are you lovin SSH righ tnow?
[11:04] <Ph0b0s> right now^
[11:04] <unagi> so PluzHalp if you wanna help me figure those two out thatd be great
[11:04] <urie1> fyretrtr: can u link me to alsa source to compile
[11:04] <n2diy> urie1: ok, I'm at a loss then.
[11:05] <r0b-> Ph0b0s through the magic os SSH/Tunnels i can hide
[11:05] <Bo2> I install alsatools I think but alsaconf still doesnt work
[11:05] <urie1> i have some error with apt-get that has to do with the fonts ?
[11:05] <urie1> u got any idea n2diy ?
[11:05] <n2diy> urie1: wait...

[11:09] <fyrestrtr> Happu: you should try compiling alsa from source.
[11:09] <urie1> i wil try to copile alsa maybe that will do the job
[11:09] <n2diy> urie1: Damn!
[11:10] <Happu> fyrestrtr: I think I installed the newest one. Does it differ from compiling?
[11:10] <Happu> fyrestrtr: I
[11:10] <fyrestrtr> Happu: yeah.
[11:10] <urie1> i have another problem in here that keeps comming up each time i use apt get

[11:11] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: are you running an accelerated desktop?
[11:11] <urie1> how can i fix this problem its annoying each time i use apt-get i get this
[11:12] <Happu> fyrestrtr: do you think that the source in repos is enough, or should it be the newest one?
[11:12] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: not to my knowledge, desktop effects were off
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> Happu: no, its the source from the ftp location. Just follow the wiki.
[11:12] <htraki> Hi, everyone
[11:12] <Rimers> DeadliftDan: As far as i remember its a problem with windows installing its own boot manager, so you need to get grub installed again, think the easiest is to boot from ubuntu live cd and do it manuely from a console
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: ctrl+alt+f2, login, and check dmesg and grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:13] <bullgard4> fyrestrtr: I read your answer. As there are so many different meanings of the word 'pager': How is this specific 'pager' called more speicifically?
[11:13] <fyrestrtr> bullgard4: I think it is called simple 'gnome pager'.
[11:13] <fyrestrtr> s/simple/simply/
[11:13] <Rimers> DeadliftDan: search the net for "install grub" that should give you enough info to get it working
[11:13] <fyrestrtr> !+grub
[11:13] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:13] <urie1> btw ubuntu installed 2 drivers now when i see it
[11:13] <urie1> both oss and alsa
[11:13] <urie1> both doesnt work ..
[11:14] <bullgard4> fyrestrtr: I will do a Google research about 'gnome pager'.

[11:16] <n2diy> uriel, sorry, I'm out of gas, it is 0515 here. Maybe a good time to sleep on it?
[11:16] <fyrestrtr> urie1: launch your mixer (double click on the speaker icon). File > Change Device > HDA Intel then, make sure you *mute* and then *unmute* the PCM channel.

[11:18] <fyrestrtr> htraki: are you running out of disk space?
[11:18] <urie1> not*
[11:18] <urie1> i didnt understand it
[11:18] <urie1> what says
[11:18] <keren> hello friends. i'm looking for a driver for a Canon PIXMA MP150 for Debian. I'm reading in http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-Pixma_MP150 that this printer works out of the box in ubuntu so perhaps this can help me. firstly, how could it be that it works out of the box in ubuntu but otherwise considered a paperweight?
[11:19] <fyrestrtr> keren: because cannon should stick to making camers :)
[11:19] <htraki> I hope not,but iam going to see after that
[11:19] <fyrestrtr> s/camers/cameras/
[11:19] <fyrestrtr> urie1: in the mixer, when you click on file, and then change device, what options do you get.
[11:19] <urie1> 2 options
[11:20] <jube> How can I make GNOME auto mount my MP3 player read/write. (right now it auto mounts with an ipod icon on my desktop but it's read only)
[11:20] <fyrestrtr> jube: what format is your mp3 player? ntfs?
[11:20] <jube> vfat
[11:20] <urie1> 1:  Audigy 1 [SB0090]  (ALSA MIXER)
[11:20] <fyrestrtr> urie1: you are not on Intel audio?
[11:21] <jube> the current output of typing mount at the command prompt is /dev/sda1 on /media/MP3 type vfat (ro,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077)
[11:21] <htraki> No, I have many disk space
[11:21] <urie1> 2: TriTech TR28602 (oss mixer)
[11:21] <urie1> i dont have intel audio
[11:21] <jube> i just want it to automount with a rw there instead of ro
[11:21] <urie1> i have amd and creative audigy live
[11:21] <LucidFox> what is the best mirror for Antalya, Turkey?
[11:21] <LucidFox> gr.a.u.c?
[11:21] <urie1> why i should see intel somewhere
[11:22] <fyrestrtr> I guess that would have been nice to know; because now you have removed support of those from your system.
[11:22] <yellow_chicken> which decoder needed to play avi?
[11:22] <htraki> Lucidfox: Try ftp.belnet.be
[11:22] <LucidFox> yellow_chicken> in which player?
[11:22] <fyrestrtr> !restricted | yellow_chicken
[11:22] <ubotu> yellow_chicken: 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
[11:22] <Ace2016> yellow_chicken: avi is a container for other formats
[11:22] <yellow_chicken> in totem
[11:22] <LucidFox> and AVI is technically a container format, not a codec
[11:23] <urie1> fyrestrtr: sorry i didnt follow
[11:23] <urie1> //
[11:23] <LucidFox> although you probably mean MPEG-4 ASP
[11:23] <htraki> Did U install libxine-extracodecs
[11:23] <htraki> ?
[11:23] <yellow_chicken>  RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 1024 x 768, 30.00 fps, video: Indeo 4.1, audio: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (stereo, 24000 Hz)
[11:23] <LucidFox> Totem uses GStreamer
[11:23] <yellow_chicken> it's that type of file
[11:23] <pawan> in which directory audacious player is installed
[11:23] <yellow_chicken> totem gstreamer only played sound, no picture
[11:23] <LucidFox> (y default anyway)
[11:23] <LucidFox> Indeo, huh?
[11:24] <htraki> Totem can use xine either
[11:24] <urie1> u didnt tell me if i need to remove the alsa driver before i install the source
[11:24] <LucidFox> gstreamer also has an extracodecs package
[11:24] <urie1> should i ?
[11:24] <LucidFox> although it's probably better to
[11:24] <LucidFox> sudo apt-get remove totem totem-gstreamer
[11:24] <LucidFox> and then
[11:24] <LucidFox> sudo apt-get install totem-xine libxine-extracodecs
[11:24] <yellow_chicken> ok
[11:25] <fyrestrtr> urie1: go back to the wiki, repeat the steps, *BUT* change --with-cards=hda-intel to --with-cards=emu10k1
[11:25] <urie1> ok d/w i didnt compile yet
[11:25] <LucidFox> or actually
[11:25] <LucidFox> sudo apt-get install totem totem-xine libxine-extracodecs
[11:25] <mattgyver83> hey room, anyone here ever had to setup WPA supplicant?
[11:25] <fyrestrtr> urie1: I thought you said you followed the wiki?
[11:25] <urie1> i just red it
[11:25] <urie1> and downloaded
[11:25] <pawan> how to uninstall audacious player manullly
[11:25] <urie1> didnt compile
[11:26] <urie1> cause i didnt know if i should remove the old driver
[11:26] <urie1> should i ?
[11:26] <htraki> And dont forget to install win32codecs pack also
[11:26] <urie1> apt-get remove emu10k1
[11:26] <urie1> ?
[11:26] <fyrestrtr> urie1: I don't know what you are talking about now.
[11:27] <ideogram> will I need to install nVidia proprietary drivers to use my dual monitors?
[11:27] <urie1> the link u gave me explains me how to install the alsa driver from source right ?
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> ideogram: yes.
[11:27] <ideogram> ok thx
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> urie1: yes.
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> urie1: but it is for those with intel-based sound processors.
[11:27] <urie1> oh so u r not sure it will help me?
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> urie1: yours should not have this problem.
[11:28] <urie1> but i have feeling its going to work
[11:28] <urie1> anyway i want to try i got nothing to lose
[11:28] <idefix> hi.., if we use wine will all the programs run as good and/or quick as straight within windows?
[11:28] <fyrestrtr> it probably would; but I don't know anything about your amd-based setup to tell you otherwise. Updated alsa with the right drivers would be the best shot at solving your issue.
[11:28] <urie1> before i install it , should i remove the driver i installed with apt-get ?
[11:28] <aelliott> idefix some programs do, but most do not
[11:29] <idefix> aelliott, so games, very important, will not then?!
[11:29] <fyrestrtr> urie1: but you should do some checking with bugs, wiki and forums to see if anyone has similar hardware.
[11:29] <aelliott> idefix, im afraid most new games will not work with wine
[11:29] <CheesyMonkey> idefix, Look at the appDB on www.winehq.com
[11:29] <aelliott> idefix, i play Eve Online on wine, but a lot of games i have tried won't work
[11:29] <urie1> ok //
[11:30] <urie1> so i wont do it ..
[11:30] <aelliott> idefix, if you are a serious gamer, then I think you will be stuck with windows for a while mate
[11:31] <pawan> hi
[11:32] <aelliott> ok guys, i'm hoping someone here understands VPN's.  I am using openvpn to link two home networks - however both networks share the same ip range - 192.168.0.1.  I don't understand how this is supposed to work - surely IP addresses will clash?
[11:33] <urie1> fyrestrtr: can u help me with another problem please?
[11:33] <revilodraw> if my computer decides to randomly not play music ever again, i will do very bad things... such as murder my entire neighbourhood in their sleep
[11:33] <urie1> each time i use apt-get it seems like some old installation is broken
[11:33] <urie1> not sure how to fix it

[11:35] <pawan> how to uninstall audacious player
[11:36] <LucidFox> pawan> sudo apt-get remove audacious
[11:36] <aelliott> apt-get remove audacious
[11:36] <LucidFox> Gasten> Hmm... what's your problem? what happened?
[11:36] <azi> hm.. is there any way for me to downrade from Guts to Feisty?
[11:36] <bemusehehehe> how do i run shell files?
[11:37] <bemusehehehe> like the file is called install.sh
[11:37] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: Hey back again, checked the dmesg seemed ok (I don't know the command to display lines one by one?). However the grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log gave me (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/wacom
[11:37] <numpszi> Hello! I'm new with the Linux. I want to install this program http:\\procbench.sourceforge.net . How can i?
[11:37] <LucidFox> bemusehehe> sh install.sh
[11:37] <bemusehehehe> ok cool
[11:37] <bemusehehehe> and how do i change directory in the terminal??
[11:37] <bemusehehehe> is it cd?
[11:37] <aelliott> bemusehehehe:  cd
[11:37] <Gasten> LucidFox: Well, when I boot with my monitor turned off, GDM sets the resolution to 640x480. And that's a pain.
[11:38] <LucidFox> hmmmm
[11:38] <pawan> i am getting entery of audacious player in sounds and video but the uninstaller is saying audacious not found
[11:38] <numpszi> there is no install.sh
[11:38] <pawan> how to manully remove directories
[11:38] <Gasten> numpszi: is there a configure ?
[11:38] <LucidFox> pawan> log out and back in
[11:38] <bemusehehehe> it told me "sh: could not open install.sh"
[11:39] <Gasten> numpszi: try using sudo
[11:39] <aelliott> bemusehehehe:  try "sudo ./install.sh"
[11:39] <LucidFox> bemusehehehe> are you sure it's a shell script?
[11:39] <bemusehehehe> ok sweet, ill take your advice
[11:39] <LucidFox> and are you sure you're in the directory with install.sh?
[11:39] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:39] <bemusehehehe> i checked its properties and it said shell script
[11:39] <LucidFox> aelliott> this will only work if the script has execution rightd
[11:39] <aelliott> bemusehehehe: also you may need to use chmod to make it executable "sudo chmod 755 install.sh" should do it
[11:39] <n2diy> sh is a shell script, the shell is already installed, just type the filename in a terminal.
[11:39] <pawan> still the same problem
[11:40] <numpszi> only a Makefile
[11:40] <omegabeta>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY ikajd0
[11:40] <aelliott> LucidFox: yes good point, he needs to chmod it
[11:40] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: then hit ctrl+alt+f7 and login again, but choose the safe mode session (forgot the exact name) see if that gets you in.
[11:40] <numpszi> and some source files (???)
[11:40] <Gasten> aelliott: chmod +x file is enough
[11:40] <fyrestrtr> omegabeta: better change your password
[11:40] <fyrestrtr> you don't need to chmod a shell script to run it.

[11:42] <ScarFreewill> can anyone install speedcrunch?
[11:42] <fyrestrtr> azi: no, I'm sorry I don't know about that. If your /home is on another partition, then its easy.
[11:44] <dissection> Hi, is there a command that can be typed in the terminal to see how long my LAN has been connected for?
[11:44] <beni_> Is there a way to deny certain processes the usage of the /swap partition?
[11:44] <azi> fyrestrtr: easy? you mean I could just backup the partition and install feisty?
[11:44] <zmeiat_joro_> 12 hours ago irssi required another package, and now it doesn't; is that normal?
[11:44] <ScarFreewill> if I click to install speedcrunch it says breakinstall

[11:45] <zmeiat_joro_> noon
[11:45] <cyzie> hello, for some reason, whenver i point my browser to my php page, it prompt for download, any idea?
[11:45] <beni_> cyzie do you have php installed?
[11:45] <Tanma2> i have a question where in regards to openssh...i can connect to my server from my internal lan but when i connect from outside i try to log on and type the password it says access denied
[11:45] <cyzie> beni_, YES
[11:45] <fyrestrtr> azi: why not?
[11:46] <beni_> cyzie: if yes, restart apache
[11:46] <n2diy> zmeiat_joro_: your cron jobs ran at 0300, so you've been updated.
[11:46] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: how did you install php?
[11:46] <cyzie> beni_, did taht.
[11:46] <cyzie> fyrestrtr, through tasksel
[11:46] <dissection> Anyone know?
[11:46] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: hrmm, that's strange. Have you tried restarting apache?
[11:47] <cyzie> fyrestrtr, YES
[11:47] <azi> fyrestrtr: feisty doesn't work on my new laptop due to unsupported HW
[11:47] <beni_> cyzie: and did you add the php.so files (iirc the name) to the httpd.conf
[11:47] <azi> fyrestrtr: i'm unable to run the installer
[11:47] <bullgard4> fyrestrtr: Thank you very much for your help about a specific 'pager'.
[11:47] <cyzie> beni_, isnt that handle by tasksel ?
[11:47] <omegabeta> After fiddling with Cairo panel and some other stuff I'm not really happy with where its at.. Can anyone recommend a decent "working" gnome panel replacement?
[11:47] <fyrestrtr> azi: please be more specific.
[11:48] <azi> btw, anyone happens to know which package brings all the stuff I need to compile programs? i'm trying to compile some *.c file and eve after apt-getting build-essential, the compiler doesn't seem to find "stdio.h"
[11:48] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: normally yes, but its strange your error.
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: i have a new graphical card which is not supported in feisty so it doesn't start X
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: so i tried with the alternate cd
[11:48] <beni_> cyzie: Hm the last time I didt it on my box it took some time and i had to configure it manually
[11:48] <fyrestrtr> azi: that's strange .. what card is it?
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: and, i can't use the keyboard therfe
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: intel X3100
[11:48] <beni_> cyzie: restarted your box?
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: it *is* supported on gutsy
[11:48] <fyrestrtr> azi: *intel* x3100 ?
[11:48] <azi> fyrestrtr: yes
[11:48] <cyzie> beni_, mmm.. no, i didnt restart box and i dont believe restart box will fix the rpoblem.
[11:49] <n2diy> Will cron jobs que themselves? If I had a job scheduled for 0300, and the box was off at that time, will it run when I boot, or what for 0300 again?
[11:49] <fyrestrtr> that's a new one.
[11:49] <azi> fyrestrtr: some intel integrated chipset
[11:49] <Prowler_1> what's ubuntu's deafolt desktop, is it KDE or Gnome ?
[11:49] <zmeiat_joro_> gnome
[11:49] <n2diy> what/wait
[11:49] <Prowler_1> zmeiat_joro_: thanks
[11:49] <azi> Prowler_1: you may want to use kubuntu if you prefer KDE

[11:50] <Cyrus25801> hey guys i need a way to normalize audio going out of my sound card because i play one file and it is very loud and i play another and it is very soft. i use vlc
[11:50] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: you should just install libapache2-mod-php5, that would fix it.
[11:50] <pawan> any registry editor for ubuntu
[11:50] <Prowler_1> no, im having problems capturing desktop vid's
[11:50] <cyzie> fyrestrtr, yes, i did
[11:50] <cyzie> and restart ;)
[11:50] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: that's a strange error with taskel.
[11:50] <fyrestrtr> cyzie: you should report it.

[11:54] <urie1> i just used the audigy driver instead of the intel
[11:54] <ttt-> fyrestrtr: i tried that, but i think it does something different. i'd like the programs (like irc and terminal) to show up there
[11:54] <urie1> and it worked
[11:54] <urie1> not sure why the drivers from the apt-get didnt ..
[11:54] <fyrestrtr> urie1: because they aren't the latest ones.
[11:54] <ttt-> fyrestrtr:  i mean the running programs
[11:55] <urie1> but this card is not new at all
[11:55] <fyrestrtr> ttt-: you probably want to add the window list to a new panel.
[11:55] <n2diy> urie1: jees, cool, I hope you are keeping a notebook, a year or two from now, it will bite you again, and you'll wish you had notes.
[11:55] <fyrestrtr> ttt-: right click on the new panel, then add to panel, then window list
[11:56] <fyrestrtr> n2diy: wiki ftw
[11:56] <ttt-> fyrestrtr:  now it shows the same programs twice
[11:56] <urie1> it will be ok :)
[11:56] <urie1> no i am not sure why i have error with the installation of some fonts
[11:56] <n2diy> fyrestrtr: computers die, but notebooks only become kindling. :)
[11:57] <dissection> Anyone know if there is a command for that at all?
[11:57] <fyrestrtr> ttt-: oh I'm sorry; I didn't understand you. You want a specific program to show up there?
[11:57] <Happu> fyrestrtr: what might be wrong, I get this error while ./cvscompile http://mureakuha.com/paste/?00003b8a521e79bd6b11dc54461a13de

[12:00] <fyrestrtr> noldrys: what program are you using to convert?
[12:00] <urie1> thanks
[12:00] <fyrestrtr> dissection: those will tell you, I think.
[12:01] <Tanman> does any one know why on ubuntu server i get access denied from internet but not from lan?
[12:01] <Flannel> Tanman: because you're not port forwarding on your router
[12:01] <Tanman> i can see the prompt on the internet
[12:01] <n2diy> Tanman: or your ISP is blocking.
[12:01] <noldrys> fyrestrtr, i want to convert a avi video mo an mp4 video for my ipod, but if i try it with the terminal i got the massag = unknown codec "aac" but i intalled faac lib
[12:02] <Ademan> what's the default password for the root account in mysql?
[12:02] <Flannel> Tanman: What program are you connecting to?
[12:02] <Flannel> Ademan: there is none, you need to set it

[12:02] <Tanman> i am using putty to connect to my box

[12:02] <Flannel> Tanman: And you've installed openssh-server?
[12:02] <Tanman> yes
[12:02] <Tanman> it has got the login screen
[12:02] <dissection> fyrestrtr: It doesn't say anything about the connection time. Is it possible to get the connection time using ifconfig?
[12:02] <Tanman> i can see that...
[12:03] <scorp123> hi all
[12:03] <Flannel> Tanman: You've got a bad password then, or you're typing it wrong, or whatnot.
[12:03] <Tanman> but i type the same password...
[12:03] <Tanman> flannel: ok i'll try again.
[12:04] <Tanman> flannel: thanks
[12:04] <n2diy> Tanman: no caps lock, no num locks.
[12:04] <Flannel> Tanman: make sure you don't have capslock on, or whatever
[12:04] <Tanman> flannel: is there any thing in openssh that tells it to deny on certain interfaces?
[12:04] <Flannel> Tanman: Not by default, no.
[12:05] <Tanman> i'll hope onto a machine
[12:05] <n2diy> be gentle
[12:05] <Tanman> hop* onto a remote machine and try it from there
[12:06] <fyrestrtr> dissection: not that I know of.
[12:07] <dissection> :[
[12:07] <Tanman> other possibility could be my firewall/router
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: its dmesg | less
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: what has changed on the system since the last time it was working?
[12:08] <Flannel> Tanman: I'd check the router first.  Since unless you've tweaked things (which you'd know about), it's not a firewall issue either
[12:08] <ttt-> ive seem to made things worse. is there a way to stop the windows in the taskbar to group together per application?
[12:08] <ttt-> in gnome
[12:08] <Tanman> on the router it says something along the lines of deny telnet traffic
[12:08] <Tanman> dunno if that will apply to ssh
[12:09] <Flannel> Tanman: ssh isn't telnet.  telnet is port 80, you need to be forwarding port 22
[12:09] <mrcreativity> i need to change my screen resoltuion and refresh rate to a custom setting, i dont know how, can some one help me?
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> 'telnet traffic' ? There is no such thing.
[12:09] <n2diy> Tanman: I could be wrong, but ssh doesn't play with telnet.
[12:09] <Tanman> hmm ok

[12:10] <Tanman> cos i still get that acccess denied..can i get some info from the auth.log?
[12:10] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: Well quite a few things, I spent pretty much the whole day yesterday tweaking it, changing desktop theme, panel sizes, icon themes etc...then I attempted to get avant window navigator but failed... Then I tried a few media players until settled with amarok but hadn't got to uninstalling them. Then got amule and gfk-gnutella (?) configured as well as static ip...
[12:10] <ideogram1> I just installed ratpoison, how do I set it as my session instead of sfce?
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: ...
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: since the last time it was working?
[12:10] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: yeah that was yesterday night
[12:11] <Tanman> oh another thing
[12:11] <Tanman> when i login internally i get a ip address to loginto
[12:11] <mrcreativity> if i run windows xp at 1280x960 @ 72hz, will ubuntu run at the same configuration?
[12:11] <ideogram1> yes
[12:11] <Tanman> when i log externally i use a domain name and that has a different ip addfress
[12:11] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: I'm reading a few posts where some people mention similar problems, it seems to be related with desktop themes or something but I wouldn't know really I'm just trying anything to fix it
[12:12] <Tanman> does that make things change?
[12:12] <Happu> fyrestrtr: I got it on ./cvscompile
[12:12] <reverseblade> mrcreativity, it possible can as long as your driver and monitor and configuration fits. And this is highly probable
[12:12] <mrcreativity> thank you.
[12:12] <Flannel> Tanman: It depends.  What do each look like?  Locally looks like 192.168.x.x? or 127.0.0.1? or what?
[12:12] <Tanman> 192.168.x.x
[12:12] <Tanman> that works
[12:13] <Flannel> Tanman: Make sure that the IP youre logging into from remote is infact your IP
[12:13] <Happu> fyrestrtr: maybe it means that ICH8 isn't supported in alsa?
[12:13] <fyrestrtr> Happu: maybe.

[12:14] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: can I do that while running live on ubuntu cd?
[12:14] <reverseblade> puvneet, what do you mean ?
[12:14] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: no, you need to do that from the system.
[12:14] <mrcreativity> the thing that confuses me is the vertical refresh rate and horizontalsync   thing
[12:14] <puvneet> i did a clean install and it's like i have something on to make everything bigger

[12:17] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: actually, I've noticed something strange, I can access my files from here but for some reason some files (such as a folder with photos I had) indicate that I don't have permission to them, but it's fine with some other files... any thoughts?
[12:17] <reverseblade> puvneet, explain what you mean by "to make everything bigger" ?
[12:18] <puvneet> everything as in the font the images and the webpages and everthing in them is just bigger

[12:18] <fyrestrtr> JCMesq: don't know, its too vague of an error.
[12:18] <reverseblade> puvneet, ah you mean the resolution
[12:18] <Tanman> i don't seem to get any entries........which is funny
[12:18] <JCMesq> fyrestrtr: hmm yeah I see what you mean...
[12:18] <puvneet> i thought that also but increasing that didn't help
[12:18] <Tanman> not from my ip address anyway
[12:18] <reverseblade> ideogram1, you install one and run it from command line , lie metacity --replace (this is default)
[12:19] <Flannel> Tanman: You setup forwarding on your router?
[12:19] <Tanman> the internet one
[12:19] <ideogram1> ok thx
[12:19] <fyrestrtr> Tanman: you cannot use the same internal network to access the server from the external IP address.
[12:19] <Tanman> i'll check but it has to be otherwise it would be timing out
[12:19] <reverseblade> puvneet, it must be it. You certainly cannot increase your resolution.

[12:30] <neo> my ip need to added to the firewall on port 22 :)_
[12:30] <n2diy> neo: I'm lost, big servers, or small servers? Three users or?...
[12:30] <neo> look:
[12:30] <neo> my localpc: 2 user  me and root
[12:30] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: no. i want internet on my phone thru my pc via bluetooth...
[12:30] <n2diy> >:<
[12:31] <ExxonE> I've got an D-link usb-dongle, dwl-g122 H/W:C1, and it doesn't start the ordinary way, I've had quite a time before it suddenly worked but in a strange manner, this is a wifi device and when I exit GTKwifi it starts, but that's the only way to get it started, and I want it to be normal.
[12:31] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, you cannot do it. Sorry for misleading you
[12:31] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: okey. thanks for the help :)
[12:31] <PluzHalp> anybody know how to set up USBhost and NEThost in Ubuntu? Are these inside some other package? I need it in order to set up my psp with the computer thanks

[12:31] <n2diy> neo: OK, the first thing you need to do is form a plan, and learn how to communicate it.
[12:32] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, you can do it technically but it's not a generic solution. prolly needs some special software to transfer the traffic
[12:32] <neo> yeah
[12:32] <fyrestrtr> neo: please do not show your e-penis on here, and try not to curse.
[12:32] <Tanman> Flannel: the only think i am going to go for is to try and investigate the router side in regards to my ssh issue
[12:32] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: yea probably... but it's not a big deal...
[12:32] <Tanman> i am going to update my firmware
[12:32] <neo> only the shit is that the servers for streetgun is working on freebsd :S

[12:33] <reverseblade> !ask | marco
[12:33] <ubotu> marco: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:33] <puvneet> hey i'm back i realize what the problem is i can't change the resolution to any higher than 1024 x 768 can some one help me to get the resolution any higher since my monitor supports higher resolution thanks
[12:33] <neo> hi |MrLinux| :D
[12:33] <reverseblade> puvneet, have you followed the link I've given
[12:33] <n2diy> neo: OK, so I'm MR. Bigwig server, why should I let you be my Admin? How will MY users benefit from you?
[12:34] <puvneet> yes
[12:34] <neo> on the website more then 7000 people
[12:34] <marco> i have problems to mount the partition where is installed windows...if i try to mount it manually it doesnt work but if i run gnome partition editor it mounts it automatically and works
[12:34] <reverseblade> puvneet, then try to diagnose the problem more specifically
[12:34] <neo> and a php chatbox that isint nice and good
[12:34] <marco> this only after a reinstallation of eindows
[12:34] <marco> *windows
[12:34] <reverseblade> !mount | marco
[12:34] <ubotu> marco: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[12:35] <marco> before it worked well
[12:35] <neo> so when i set it up they will get cgi-irc java chat
[12:35] <neo> and would be better to control
[12:35] <reverseblade> uhh this is old
[12:35] <reverseblade> !fstab
[12:35] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[12:35] <PluzHalp> please someone NEThost USBhost
[12:35] <puvneet> my computer can run 1200 x something but ubuntu doesn't give me the option to change to higher resolution
[12:35] <neo> |MrLinux| i cant talk private
[12:35] <|MrLinux|> :(
[12:36] <neo> freenode set permission to private for registered people :P
[12:36] <andreas_> Hi. Is it possible to set Nautilus to look like the folder Images in Windows?
[12:36] <marco> but the file /etc/fstab is the same as before, and before it worked, but after format and reinstallation of windows on his partition, it doesnt work
[12:36] <marco> it doesnt mount my partition at startup
[12:36] <n2diy> neo: Ok, so the users will like you, until you make a mistake, and you will, are you ready to deal with 7000 angry people? How?
[12:37] <neo> n2diy when i make a mistake they wont know
[12:37] <neo> i'll chat
[12:37] <Keith> Hi, Does anyone know of any ebay software for linux? for Listing
[12:37] <puvneet> is there a command i can run so ubuntu can detect that my monitor has a higher resolution
[12:37] <neo> i will be net-admin but i set mode +H so it isint visible for them
[12:37] <reverseblade> puvneet, xrandr
[12:37] <neo> only ircops can see that i'm ircop then :)
[12:37] <kblin> hi
[12:38] <reverseblade> puvneet, man xrandr , e.g xrandr -s 0
[12:38] <neo> i'm more technical for the chat serer
[12:38] <reverseblade> !hi | kblin
[12:38] <ubotu> kblin: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:38] <neo> server *
[12:38] <Xecuter88> hi again:) i've lost colors in the gnome-terminal, the ones that shows folders, files, archives, and so on. how do i get that back?
[12:38] <n2diy> neo: Ok, the users might not know, but your boss will! :) I not trying to discourage you, just let you know, beware the snacks in the grass, on your path.
[12:38] <n2diy> snacks|snakes
[12:38] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, how did you do it ?
[12:38] <craigbass1976> when I restart rsync (/etc/init.d/rsync restart) I get no "ok" or anything, and when I ps -ef I can't see that it's running.
[12:38] <deathnall> ok guyss where can i find my movies folder?
[12:38] <neo> n2diy when i make a mistake we will fix it
[12:38] <kblin> I'm currently trying the alternate cd install, but that's failing to activate the LVM group I'm running my current home dir on..
[12:39] <reverseblade> deathnall, there is no such specific folder in ubuntu
[12:39] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: how i lost them? they fell out of my purse... hehe no i don't know...
[12:39] <ExxonE> Is there anyone who has had problems with their D-link USB dongle?
[12:39] <kblin> oh, sorry... it only took like 15 minutes
[12:39] <puvneet> is that a command to change the resolution
[12:39] <deathnall> well where would it be normally
[12:39] <craigbass1976> deathnall, how did you get them, off amule of something?  look in .amule
[12:39] <PluzHalp> Keith, kblin it takes somewhat long for LVM group become activated
[12:39] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, try to reconfigure it then. From settings menu in terminal
[12:39] <PluzHalp> kblin, why do you say fails to activate? How do you know?
[12:39] <andreas_> Can Nautilus be set to look like the folder Images in Windows?
[12:39] <neo> n2diy when somebody is breaking the rules we will blackhole them
[12:39] <craigbass1976> deathnall, otherwise, /home/deathnall/blahblah
[12:39] <neo> that they wont get any respons of the server
[12:40] <deathnall> home?
[12:40] <n2diy> neo: Ok, but keep in mind some mistakes are reversible, and some aren't. Falling down hurts, falling off a cliff, is a big big hurt.
[12:40] <PluzHalp> neo what if they use TOR? lol
[12:40] <kblin> PluzHalp, yeah, as I said, it only tool like 15 minutes
[12:40] <ExxonE> !wifi
[12:40] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:40] <craigbass1976> deathnall, did you just fire up linux for the first time?
[12:40] <reverseblade> PluzHalp, you can always block the TOR ports
[12:40] <Keith> !ebay
[12:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ebay - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:40] <deathnall> i was using mniro
[12:40] <deathnall> miro
[12:41] <deathnall> and ys pretty much 2 days new
[12:41] <deathnall> miro i have
[12:41] <deathnall> and i downloaded loads of tv shows last night
[12:41] <PluzHalp> reverseblade, if you are patient enough TOR eventually goes through
[12:41] <deathnall> prob is i cant find em
[12:41] <PluzHalp> kblin, so what the problem then
[12:41] <PluzHalp> kblin, you just said that they are activated right?
[12:41] <reverseblade> deathnall, you can create your own folder. My Movies , My Documents are specific to Windows (and they are bad)
[12:41] <andreas_> deathnall: Have you tried searching for the names?
[12:42] <kblin> PluzHalp, none.. it just completed a minute after I aked here
[12:42] <craigbass1976> deathnall, ok, well instead of c:\documents and settings\blahblah, the filesystem here is laid out so:  / = C, and /home = c:\documents and settings\
[12:42] <craigbass1976> sort of
[12:42] <int21h> how to unplug the usb drives < what command ?
[12:42] <kblin> PluzHalp, I just came in here and asked after it was stuck for a long time
[12:42] <n2diy> neo: Always ask yourself, what is the risk I am taking, and what is the reward?
[12:42] <kblin> PluzHalp, and as always wot
[12:42] <PluzHalp> kblin, so you are fine now?
[12:42] <Naitsirk> Will dmraid let me just replace one disk if it fails and everything fixes itself? ..like I think it will with hardware raid..?
[12:42] <reverseblade> deathnall, all you need to mess is with /home/<your_user_name> folder, you can forget the rest
[12:42] <kblin> PluzHalp, yeah, thanks
[12:42] <neo> n2diy i know the risks
[12:42] <craigbass1976> deathnall, what did you download them with?  Just in your browser?
[12:42] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: active profile? i've got norwegian language so theres not a settings-menu....
[12:43] <neo> if i'm faling
[12:43] <deathnall> ok thnx i will look now
[12:43] <neo> they always got a backup
[12:43] <deathnall> with miro
[12:43] <deathnall> i mean
[12:43] <int21h> how to unplug the usb drives < what command ?
[12:43] <neo> when 00:00 is system will backup
[12:43] <neo> when nessasery they use the backup
[12:43] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, right click to your terminal and select "Edit Current Profile"
[12:43] <deathnall> i did download 2 yesterday so i went and found the folder then i dragged it onto my desktop
[12:43] <n2diy> neo, good, and we/you can only dream of the awards, good luck!
[12:43] <ExxonE> int21h: ifdown [yourdevice] 
[12:43] <neo> thank you
[12:43] <Xecuter88> reverseblade mdm
[12:43] <int21h> ok
[12:43] <deathnall> its there but i only have 2 wids
[12:43] <puvneet> so how would i use the xrandr command
[12:43] <Xecuter88> reverseblade mhm
[12:44] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, what ?
[12:44] <deathnall> vids
[12:44] <buzzbuzz> Hi 2 all
[12:44] <PluzHalp> kblin, by the way, the Ubuntu install set up for LVM is not normal, try Gentoo set LVM2 is a breeze, it only takes as fast as you type. I have no idea why on earth AlternateCD takes ages to create/activate LVM partitions. It's so retarded
[12:44] <deathnall> so im trying to see if it was a shortcut
[12:44] <reverseblade> !hi|  buzzbuzz
[12:44] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: yes and then?
[12:44] <ubotu> buzzbuzz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:44] <buzzbuzz> =)
[12:44] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, oh come on. There is the colors tab
[12:44] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: yeeess....?
[12:44] <int21h> ExxonE: do i need a root acnt?
[12:45] <PluzHalp> is there a way to use command line in order to install Ubuntu? I mean using fdisk in command line and lvm in command line
[12:45] <craigbass1976> deathnall, is there a /home/deathnall/miro folder?
[12:45] <kblin> PluzHalp, yeah, but if I wanted to run gentoo, I wouldn't be using an ubuntu install cd :)
[12:45] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, click to the colors tab  and play it as you like
[12:45] <PluzHalp> the Text Dialog are loathsome shit to use
[12:45] <deathnall> nope
[12:45] <ExxonE> int21h: you'll notice.. try it.
[12:45] <Xecuter88> reverseblade: yeah, allready tried it... doesn't work...
[12:45] <reverseblade> PluzHalp, alernate installer CD ?
[12:45] <deathnall> whwen u say home u mean my desktop right?
[12:45] <PluzHalp> a command line installation a la Gentoo?
[12:46] <craigbass1976> how about .miro (with a preceeding period)
[12:46] <Enselic> Ubuntu runs the vsftp deamon as root by default, isn't this dangerous?
[12:46] <ExxonE> int21h: ifup [yourdevice]  to start it again.
[12:46] <reverseblade> Xecuter88, dunno , try re-installing or reconfiguring it
[12:46] <PluzHalp> reverseblade, AlternateCD is the same #$%@#
[12:46] <craigbass1976> you'd ahve to be looking for hidden files
[12:46] <puvneet> dude sorry to bother u again but how would i use the xrandr
[12:46] <kblin> reverseblade, the debian installer one
[12:46] <kblin> reverseblade, the lvm activation takes ages :)
[12:46] <deathnall> i now
[12:47] <neo> people
[12:47] <deathnall> how do i search for files?
[12:47] <neo> roman language exist right?
[12:47] <reverseblade> puvneet, no problem, open a gnome - terminal and write the command there
[12:47] <linxeh> neo: latin
[12:47] <neo> :P
[12:47] <neo> ok
[12:47] <puvneet> thanks
[12:47] <linxeh> neo: roman script typically refers to the alphabet we use in english / french etc
[12:47] <reverseblade> puvneet, type xrandr to see all available resolutions
[12:47] <neo> ok :P
 what is the command to list my devices?
[12:47] <puvneet> k
[12:48] <reverseblade> puvneet, type xrandr -s X where X denotes the resolution ID number
[12:48] <reverseblade> that you can see from the list
[12:48] <neo> heej..
[12:48] <n2diy> int21h: lshw
[12:48] <neo> i'm wondering how to configure postgresql (for |MrLinux|)
[12:48] <dissection> I downloaded a perl script. How do I run it?
[12:48] <reverseblade> neo, I am using it
[12:48] <neo> how to configure it?
[12:49] <buzzbuzz> dissection: chmod +x yourfile.pl
[12:49] <buzzbuzz> then ./hello.pl
[12:49] <buzzbuzz> yourfile.pl*
[12:49] <ExxonE> int21h: lsusb I think
[12:49] <reverseblade> there is a very nice gui utility ccalled pgadmin3 install it via synaptic
[12:49] <Javid-> Hi, I just installed 5.10 off an old-ass CD. None of the apt repositories work. Is it possible to update the addresses so they will work or will everything still be broken in 5.10?
[12:49] <int21h> ok
[12:49] <reverseblade> neo, pgadmin3 from synaptic
[12:49] <puvneet> reverseblade. it's wrong though my monitor can display a higher resolution than it says is there a way for it to check the highest resolution my monitor can display
[12:49] <deathnall> ok guys i think i have narrowed it down
[12:50] <deathnall> do we have like a temp folder with ubuntu?
[12:50] <buzzbuzz> puvneet: have you got graphic drivers installed?
[12:50] <reverseblade> deathnall, /tmp
[12:50] <neo> thank u reverseblade
[12:50] <puvneet> it installed them when i went to turn on the desktop effects

[12:51] <buzzbuzz> puvneet: you probably don't have proper graphic drivers installed, for nvidia it would be "nvidia-settings" to type into terminal, where you can change to higher resolutions
[12:51] <pawan> for alsa support
[12:51] <int21h> ExxonE: it give me the bus no. ,device no.  ID

[12:53] <reverseblade> !hi | LeoUA
[12:53] <ubotu> LeoUA: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:53] <puvneet> probablt in the synaptic
[12:53] <LeoUA> is there C++ Builder-like IDE for Ubuntu?
[12:53] <ipsywipsy> ncurses, try sudo apt-get install ncurses-base
[12:54] <Javid-> That answers one question, but is the current stuff likely to even be compatible with this old version?
[12:54] <craigbass1976> deathnall, yes.  Open a terminal.  ln -s .miro/movies Desktop/movies

[12:54] <berent> what is ncurses now known as
[12:54] <reverseblade> LeoUA, there is KDevelop for KDE
[12:54] <berent> oh ok
[12:54] <deathnall> qahh thnx
[12:54] <n2diy> Javid, umm, probably not, your better off with a fresh CD install.
[12:54] <LeoUA> what about GNOME?
[12:54] <craigbass1976> when I restart rsync (/etc/init.d/rsync restart) I get no "ok" or anything, and when I ps -ef I can't see that it's running.
[12:55] <Javid-> I thought so, OK, I'm just on a live CD stuck at my mom's place XD
[12:55] <reverseblade> err dunno, I detest C++ and avoid it at any cost:)
[12:55] <buzzbuzz> reverseblade: it works by installing not a thing on feisty, all you have to do is go to System > Administration > Restricted Drivers, then select the nvidia driver which appears there
[12:55] <Javid-> apt-get update gives me an error and says to run apt-get update to fix it
[12:55] <Javid-> anywhoo, thanks
[12:55] <ipsywipsy> if you're compiling you might need libcurses5-dev
[12:55] <reverseblade> buzzbuzz, what was your problem again ?
[12:55] <ipsywipsy> oops, libncurses5 (but you knew what I meant)
[12:55] <berent> ipsywipsy : is there any "curses library"
[12:56] <buzzbuzz> reverseblade: sorry, not mine exactly, but puvneet's problem
[12:56] <Ifreeze> anyone know the command (terminal) to show cpu usage ..
[12:56] <n2diy> Javid, apt-get is looking for the old repos, that's why you should update your sources.

[01:09] <reverseblade> buzzbuzz, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=8211
[01:09] <boucle> how can i recover this
[01:10] <reverseblade> buzzbuzz, the answer seems no
[01:10] <buzzbuzz> reversebuzz: But I guess it won't work anyway. One thing I really don't want to do again, is installing Vista on myHDD - so I'll run it with VMWARE.That will work with my Vista Business, will it?
[01:10] <zax1> i haVE JUST UNSTALLED UBUNTU ANDchose hebrew as my language, but it seems to be quite sketchie, some things are in hebrew and some in english, i wish to translate it competely, how do i change whats in english to hebrew and then submit it ?

[01:10] <ubotu> rosetta is a Web-based system for translating open source software into any language.  See https://launchpad.net/rosetta/+about

[01:10] <Toma-> zax1: ^^^
[01:11] <Hirvinen> zax1: See above about Rosetta.
[01:11] <zax1> jonboon: http://www.edubuntu.org/Download
[01:11] <zax1> Toma and Hirvinen i been there - but cant make heads or tail of it
[01:11] <reverseblade> buzzbuzz, 2ndly when you go for Virtual Machines, everything works except ... Hardware accelerations . Meaning forget about DirectX and only software rendering with opengl
[01:12] <n2diy> zax1: look into system>preferences> keyboard, or man loadkeys.
[01:12] <reverseblade> buzzbuzz, there is one exception to this  and that is VMWare workstation which is not free

[01:13] <n2diy> pawan1, same way you do a file.
[01:13] <pawan1> ur not the owner of the folder ucannot change permissions
[01:13] <zax1> n2diy: the keys work well, its just that some thing are still in english, quite a few things, so i was hopin to translate it and submit it

[01:13] <KillerKiwi2005> reverseblade: X is gnome isn't
[01:13] <PulsatingQuasar> I have problems with the Settings Manager
[01:13] <LeoUA> Dear users, how do you think: what OS is used in Military Computers? Pentagon, NAVY computers, etc
[01:13] <pawan1> i logged in as admin still it is not allowing me to change permissions
[01:13] <n2diy> zax1: ok, I just use a Dvorak here, and it does what I want, Good luck.
[01:14] <reverseblade> KillerKiwi2005, whoa, what the heck did you do to your machine dude
[01:14] <PulsatingQuasar> Animation settings don't show

[01:14] <zax1> Toma thanks, bit i cant understand how to work it
[01:15] <n2diy> why does pawan keep changing nicks?
[01:15] <Toma-> zax1: basically, sign up to lauchpad, then start submitting the translation per package
[01:15] <PulsatingQuasar> KillerKiwi2005: Do you also have problems with the settings manager
[01:15] <c2c2rock> hey buzzbuzz did you have issues with resolution on yer 7.04 64bit?
[01:15] <KillerKiwi2005> PulsatingQuasar: no seems to work finr
[01:15] <reverseblade> LeoUA, windows 98 or millennium edition, or even windows 95
[01:15] <LeoUA> :D

[01:15] <PulsatingQuasar> KillerKiwi2005: I can't get to the animation settings anymore
[01:15] <Keith> on Ubuntu i mean
[01:15] <reverseblade> LeoUA, such places are very conservative on moving to new OS
[01:15] <zax1> Toma but how do i know which package i am working on, i am quite new to this am not a programmer or even that savvy, jut want to do the language.....
[01:16] <buzzbuzz> c2c2rock: No, it all worked fine after installing Nvidia Drivers for me, and then change the resolution with "nvidia-settings" in Terminal :)
[01:16] <pawan> how to remove dierctory using rm

[01:16] <zax1> also some of the translations seems to be ok, but are not incorporated...should i take it that its still under debate ?
[01:16] <PulsatingQuasar> KillerKiwi2005: and the last time I could the DropDownList box with effect names became a Slider with a number

[01:16] <reverseblade> pawan, rm -rf <dir_name>
[01:16] <KillerKiwi2005> PulsatingQuasar: hmm works fine here maybe try cleaning your gonf settings out
[01:16] <reverseblade> pawan, caution when using with sudo. eg. sudo rm -rf /  would wipe out your entire disk
[01:17] <PulsatingQuasar> KillerKiwi2005: I guess I have to be in /etc then

[01:39] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: OK so it isn't gtreamer is it ?
[01:39] <thoreauputic> *gstreamer
[01:39] <wehttamb> is there a way i can access my computer through vnc over the internet
[01:39] <Lilacor> thoreauputic: You're right. That proves it isn't gstreamer. It is odd that I can reinstall gstreamer and get sound working again however.
[01:40] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: have a look at your default sound settings - try alsa all round
[01:40] <MR> Imitation: Everything is working now. Thank you very much
[01:40] <MR> Very much appreciated :)
[01:40] <Lilacor> thoreauputic: it is already ALSA. :(
[01:40] <Imitation> MR: no problem.
[01:40] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: tests fail ?
[01:41] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: gstreamer-properties tests
[01:41] <Lilacor> thoreauputic: yes...with the error message I provided to you earlier.
[01:41] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: ah OK
[01:41] <MR> bye
[01:41] <VoX> wehttamb: yes, with vnc. over the internet.
[01:41] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: this sound card has been workig fine until recently, right?
[01:41] <jussi_> I need some help: I tried installing tuxguitar the other day and the install froze in the package installer window. so i rebooted and tried again. It then said that only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time. Can someone help me with this problem?
[01:41] <Lilacor> thoreauputic: yes.
[01:42] <wehttamb> vox: how can i do it
[01:42] <VoX> wehttamb: depends what you want to do
[01:42] <thoreauputic> Lilacor: running out of diagnostic ideas - do you have ogg123 installed? If so, try playing an ogg file with it ( ogg123 file.ogg)
[01:43] <linuxor> Hi, which repository I need to install totem ?? thx
[01:43] <thoreauputic> linuxboy: main
[01:43] <thoreauputic> linuxboy: and it is installed by default anyway :)
[01:43] <Lilacor> thoreauputic: it's okay. I'll try to find something. Thanks for your aid.
[01:43] <thoreauputic> good luck, Lilacor
[01:44] <linuxor> thoreauputic, thx, but I get : "E: Couldn't find package Totem"
[01:44] <wehttamb> vox: i would like to be able to log into my computer and use it over the internet from a windows xp computer
[01:44] <thoreauputic> linuxboy: "movie player" in your menu
[01:45] <thoreauputic> linuxboy: totem ( lower case)
[01:45] <linuxor> thoreauputic, oh , thx I get it now
[01:45] <thoreauputic> linuxboy: should already be there ...
[01:46] <VoX> wehttamb: go to System->Prefernces-> Remote Desktop and turn it on
[01:48] <wehttamb> yea i have done that
[01:48] <wehttamb> vox: but how do i conect to it over the internet
[01:49] <dissection> When I type free -m, it says I have 12MB of RAM free. But I have more than 400 free when I checked in system processes. Why is it showing it wrong in the terminal?
[01:49] <VoX> wehttamb: run vncclient from the windows computer, put your home ip in, proceed to win
[01:50] <thoreauputic> dissection: look at the "buffers + cache" line
[01:50] <thoreauputic> dissection: the true "free" figure is the free figure on that line, more or less

[01:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vanilla - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:50] <wehttamb> vox: do i have to configure my router for it to work?
[01:51] <VoX> wehttamb: possibly
[01:51] <Albaraha> my Linksys Wireless-G USB Adpater WUSB54GC is detected in Ubuntu and I have wlan0 but can't be connected to the router
[01:51] <thoreauputic> wehttamb: yes, you will need port forwarding ( probably 5900)
[01:51] <booyah> anyone here ?
[01:52] <wehttamb> thereauputic: so if i forward port 5900 to my computer it will work?
[01:52] <thoreauputic> wehttamb: that's vnc though, check the needed port for MS remote desktop
[01:52] <dissection> thoreauputic: Ah I see :)
[01:52] <wehttamb> thereauputic
[01:52] <wehttamb> ok
[01:52] <thoreauputic> dissection: linux uses as much of your RAM as possible - this is a Good Thing (tm)
[01:53] <booyah> does someone speak french here ?

[01:55] <thoreauputic> negatifzeo: #ubuntu-effects if it is still going ( hven't been there lately)
[01:55] <Imitation> negatifzeo: or try #beryl or #compiz

[02:01] <pawan> audacious player doesnt support mp3 format or what
[02:02] <egro> Hallo, I have problem with compile kernel. I am downloaded this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/linux-source-2.6.22_2.6.22.orig.tar.gz and compiled it with command "AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs flavours=generic". After 1 hour I have 4 packages ( http://openpaste.org/sk/2558/ ),but I have problem with install "linux-headers-2.6.22-9-generic_2.6.22-9.19_amd64.deb" > http://openpaste.org/sk/2553/
[02:02] <egro> . How i make linux-headers-2.6.22-9 package?
[02:02] <riaal> anyone? is kill 9 PID a harder kill then just kill PID?
[02:03] <neo> yes
[02:03] <neo> kill -9 PID
[02:03] <Gecko> riaal: yes, you actually kills the process, not asking it to shut down
[02:03] <Enselic> What is the command again to track the end of a logfie, i.e. to cat it while it changes?
[02:03] <Gecko> Enselic: tail -f
[02:03] <Enselic> ty
[02:03] <riaal> neo, Gecko, thanks
[02:03] <pawan> how to install mp3 support in audaacious 1.3.2
[02:03] <neo> no problem
[02:03] <pawan> su -c 'yum install audacious-plugins-nonfree-mp3'
[02:04] <Gecko> yum??
[02:04] <Gecko> this is ubuntu, not fedora
[02:04] <Enselic> pawan: please recomend sudo instead of su
[02:04] <Gecko> and apt-get not yum
[02:05] <WaxyFresh> where can i learn more about run levels? can someone give me a brief overview of them?
[02:05] <Jammer> WaxyFresh, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runlevel
[02:05] <Gecko> those aren't exactly used in Ubuntu anymore...
[02:06] <WaxyFresh> whats the dif inbetween sudo and su?
[02:06] <thoreauputic> !sudo
[02:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:07] <Gecko> WaxyFresh: su changes the user, and prompting you for that user's password
[02:07] <Burlynn> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 on my intel macbook. Apparently from reading online the new core 2 duo versions have an updated atheros wireless chipset that requires newer madwifi drivers than feisty comes with. Without internet on my ubuntu install i cant download the tarball and compile, because i cant get build-essential. Does anyone have any ideas?
[02:07] <Gecko> WaxyFresh: sudo can do that too, but has a more strict security model. It can be set up to allow only certain commands to be typed as root, or running commands as a third user instead of root
[02:08] <elkbuntu> WaxyFresh, it means that a cracker needs to figure out the username as well as the password, so naughty stuff takes twice as long
[02:08] <Gecko> WaxyFresh: also, sudo prompts for YOUR password, not the root password

[02:08] <Catoptromancy_> is there a way to set mouse acceleration in terminal?
[02:08] <riaal> Burlynn, I just orderd one of them to run ubuntu on, don't you have any ethernet connection close by?
[02:09] <thoreauputic> Catoptromancy_: don't know, but the documentation for " gpm" might help
[02:09] <Burlynn> riaal: no, i only have a hotspot to work off of at the moment ;/
[02:09] <thoreauputic> Catoptromancy_: assuming you mean a tty
[02:10] <Catoptromancy_> i have no idea
[02:10] <Gecko> Interesting, the link ubotu just mentioned, the tor.unixgu.ru link, just gives you a login to a d-link router...

[02:10] <thoreauputic> Catoptromancy_: there are also various svgalib and framebuffer settings for a mouse used in a tty
[02:10] <Catoptromancy_> I really just need a Logitech mouse driver
[02:11] <Catoptromancy_> to keep a high DPI and really fast speed
[02:11] <thoreauputic> Catoptromancy_: ah, that's different...
[02:11] <riaal> Burlynn, that sucks, well I don't know what to do, are you pleased whit the macbook sofar?
[02:11] <Catoptromancy_> With a terminal command I could set mouse speed to change while laucnhing a shell, and reset back when exiting
[02:12] <Burlynn> riaal: very. my first mac, i love it. mac os x is good but i miss my ubuntu as well
[02:13] <berent> mac : does it have all basic packages?
[02:13] <berent> mac : i think its even lesser than windows?
[02:14] <riaal> Burlynn, there is no problem runnin both mac os and ubuntu as dualboot, right?
[02:16] <Burlynn> riaal: nope. install went totally fine, though you need to use bootcamp to partition the drive initially and not destroy the data. wired internet would work fine if i had access too, out of the box. its just wireless that needs updated drivers to work
[02:17] <pawan> how to manually remove audacious
[02:17] <Burlynn> i was trying to find precompiled madwifi drivers and just hopefully mount the macosx partition and copy over and install but all i can find are tarballs

[02:18] <thoreauputic> pawan:  sudo apt-get remove --purge audacious
[02:18] <sam1337> I have a really strange bug with compiz fusion. When I run compiz --replace I can only see the top left quarter of my desktop and the rest is blacked out. Does anybody know what the problem is?
[02:18] <thoreauputic> pawan: assuming you installed a deb
[02:19] <riaal> Burlynn, sounds really great, can't wait untill I get mine. good luck whit the wireless!
[02:19] <Burlynn> thanks
[02:19] <thoreauputic> sam1337: are you using nvidia ? There was an nvidia bug that caused black windows ( not sure if this is tha same thing)
[02:20] <sam1337> thoreaputic im using nvidia with 512mb of graphics memory but my problem is 3/4 of the screen being blacked out
[02:20] <Montaro> im using gutsy, just did an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade and now mysqlserver is seg faulting.. any idea why?
[02:20] <thul> ok, I have a slight problem trying to install ubuntu. this is an old machine i got at home, but the hardware should be ok, and it boots up to the live thing ok. the keyboard works ok when I'm choosing options in the early menu, but goes dead when I'm done booting up to the live screen
[02:20] <thul> any suggestions?
[02:20] <thoreauputic> sam1337: have you read the wiki about compiz etc?
[02:21] <sam1337> Montaro because gusty is alpha software
[02:21] <thoreauputic> !compiz| sam1337
[02:21] <ubotu> sam1337: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:21] <pawan> still there are audicious directories present
[02:21] <pawan> how to manually remove those directories
[02:21] <Montaro> sam1337: i realise that, but ive been using gutsy ever since it was around and this is the first real issue ive had with it (apart from the udevd thing a while ago)
[02:21] <thoreauputic> pawan: check the directory - it probably s=doen't contain anything important if you purged the package
[02:22] <pawan> it is still containing all the audacious files
[02:22] <thoreauputic> pawan: also the directory is probably doing no harm
[02:22] <thul> numlock and capslock doesen't function when I'm booting up the live screen. weird enough
[02:22] <Albaraha> any1 using Linksys Wireless-G USB Adpater WUSB54GC on Ubuntu?
[02:22] <thoreauputic> pawan: did you purge audacious?
[02:22] <pawan> and in the repository it says audacious uninstalled
[02:23] <sam1337> thoreauputic no solutions to my problem there
[02:23] <pawan> yes purged
[02:23] <Catoptromancy_> Albaraha, i use something very similar
[02:23] <thoreauputic> pawan: so what is the problem?
[02:23] <Catoptromancy_> wusb54g
[02:23] <Albaraha> what steps do I have to follow?
[02:23] <pawan> not able to play mp3 files
[02:23] <Albaraha> It's detected but can't connect
[02:23] <pawan> installed all the plugins
[02:24] <pawan> my audacious version is 1.3.2
[02:24] <Albaraha> do I need a special driver, Catoptromancy_
[02:24] <thoreauputic> sam1337: OK - well I had to fool with xorg.conf to get Beryl working here ( nvidia FX5500 )
[02:24] <pawan> i want to remove this and install the older version
[02:24] <sam1337> thoreauputic ok im just going to mess about with it until it works then
[02:25] <Catoptromancy_> Albaraha, nidswrapper-common, ndiswrapper-utils install....then get folder off driver CD that has a .inf .sys and .cat file....3 files in same folder type "ndiswrapper -i nameofinifile.inf"
[02:25] <thul> i get [ 0.000000]  ACPI: BIOS age (1997) fails cutoff (2000), acpi=force is required to enable ACPI while booting up the live, that might be the keyboard/mouse problem?
[02:25] <pawan> hello
[02:25] <Burlynn> is it possible to download a package in the repositories off the web?
[02:26] <thoreauputic> Burlynn: yes, check packages.ubuntu.com - but watch out for the dependencies
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Albaraha: SOme of those used bcm43xx chipsets...  if that is the case you would use fwcutter and not ndiswapper
[02:26] <Burlynn> thoreauputic: does it list them by chance?
[02:27] <thoreauputic> Burlynn: yes, it does
[02:27] <Albaraha> Catoptromancy_, you there?
[02:27] <sam1337> thoreauputic I fixed the problem. turns out that compiz fusion wasent set to detect the correct output, instead it used 640X480
[02:27] <Burlynn> thoreauputic: okay thanks
[02:27] <thoreauputic> Burlynn: under the package you will see reda and green dots with recommends and deps
[02:28] <Catoptromancy_> al
[02:28] <Catoptromancy_> Albaraha,
[02:28] <pawan> what is ubuntustudio
[02:29] <WaxyFresh> pawan: its for makeing music
[02:29] <pawan> its different from ubuntu
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Catoptromancy_: I hate it when a company uses different chipsets in the same models..  v4 uses Ralink RT2500 Drivers
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> pawan: no its ubuntu,but it has several programs instaled that are usefull for makeing/editing music
[02:30] <WaxyFresh> pawan: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-studio i think will install all teh extra packages ontop of an existing ubuntu install
[02:30] <Albaraha> Catoptromancy_, any site containing the howto of the device?
[02:31] <egro> can you help me?? :D
[02:31] <Catoptromancy_> just install ndis

[02:43] <Ifreeze> pawan, mzz well i got audacity also installed but i just unchecked it into applications, sound & video so it is there but i cant see it ... otherwise i dont know...
[02:43] <pawan> but i am seeing audacious in sounds and video after uninstalling also
[02:44] <Catoptromancy_> Albaraha, your exact files may be slightly differently named
[02:44] <pawan> so i want to delete it manually but no permissions
[02:44] <Catoptromancy_> but the .debs need same name as those
[02:45] <Ifreeze> pawan, u can try this : rightclick on the icon ->properties the tab "open with" and change it .... i dont know farther howto uninstall it ..
[02:45] <faemir> can someone tell me where I should install ut2004 to, because it defaults to in /home/myuser/ut2004 which i don't want. so basically the normal place that games go?
[02:45] <sq89> faemir: you could use /usr/local/games
[02:45] <mohk> faemir: or /opt/ut2004
[02:45] <sq89> should run the installer as root then
[02:45] <pawan> i think i should reinstall ubuntu
[02:46] <pawan> how to reinstall
[02:46] <Ifreeze> pawan, .. just take cd and redo the whole install process...
[02:46] <sq89> pawan, you'll have to format your ubuntu partition then, make sure you don't lose any important data
[02:47] <Anlar> pawan: using synaptic you can just simply select for the older version to be installed
[02:47] <Anlar> pawan: there's absolutely no need for EVER re-installing linux, for no reason
[02:47] <faemir> sq89 what about a link path?
[02:48] <sq89> faemir: what's the current value?
[02:48] <pawan> will it remove all the currently installed applications
[02:48] <winndixie> i'm gay
[02:48] <faemir> /home/myuser
[02:48] <sq89> faemir: you can use /usr/local/bin, it will link the ut2004 executable there so that you can run it by entering 'ut2004'
[02:48] <Anlar> pawan: it can, if you want.
[02:48] <faemir> thanks sq89 :D
[02:49] <sq89> you're welcome
[02:49] <Ifreeze> can anyone say me (or give me) a site where they explain how i can set up a proxy?
[02:49] <mechdave> Hi all, I am trying to add gcc g++ and make to Ubuntu 6.10. I tried the "apt-get install build-essential" but to no avail, anyone have any other ideas? The pc is not connected to the internet.
[02:50] <kidbuntu> how do i install the kde desktop manager
[02:50] <faemir> kidbuntu, sudo aptitude kubuntu-desktop ?
[02:50] <Anlar> mechdave: either "aptoncd" or copy the packages manually from packages.ubuntu.com or connect it to intterwebs
[02:51] <kidbuntu> faemir: thanks
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: that will also install a bunch of kde apps,
[02:51] <faemir> yeh, that's why i duelboot kubuntu and ubuntu
[02:51] <kidbuntu> IndyGunFreak: i think i'll go for sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:51] <faemir> because the menus get /real/ crowded
[02:51] <sq89> kidbuntu, and afaik it will override some default ubuntu settings. if you only want to try kde, you might not want that
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: ok, it should work(i think), but you're gonna have a ton of kde apps in your gnome menu
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> faemir: i just decided KDE was the devil, and stuck with gnome.. ;)
[02:52] <faemir> same :P
[02:52] <faemir> although it's unfair that gnome programs look nice in kde but not the other way round :'(
[02:52] <kidbuntu> IndyGunFreak: actually ive tried the xubuntu-desktop. i just want to try kde desktop.since you've said it will just install some bunch of applications. never mind then
[02:53] <faemir> kidbuntu, no it will put on kde as well
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: no, it will insall the desktop to,
[02:53] <faemir> it's just you will have like 2 of everything unless you remove ubuntu-desktop
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: it will just install a crapload of apps to.
[02:53] <faemir> like ark and fileroller as kde and gnome archive managers respectively
[02:53] <sq89> faemir: kde apps should like good enough when they use Qt 4. it's got a clearlooks clone
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: i just wanted to make you aware of all the kde apps it will install(cuz there's a bunch)\
[02:53] <sq89> s/like/look
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Anlar: that is a pretty broad statement, no need for ever reinstalling ubuntu.. How about this.. Someone tried automatix or envy and hosed everything up...
[02:54] <faemir> kidbuntu, basically he's saying you should try kde, then go with one or the other, due to having both meaning you have waaay too many applications installed
[02:54] <faemir> i think.
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> faemir: more or less..
[02:54] <kidbuntu> IndyGunFreak: thanks for the warning. I dont want to add some bunch of apps anymore. I already had enough of Xfce
[02:54] <Johto> mechdave: "The pc is not connected to the internet." <-- thats the problem :)
[02:54] <faemir> kidbuntu, you can try, then uninstall after you know...
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> kidbuntu: and just thnk, it will be WAY worse with kde, than it was with xfce
[02:55] <Johto> mechdave: using linux without internet is like having a bout on dry land :D)
[02:55] <Anlar> Jack_Sparrow: usually quite easy to fix, automatix really isn't doing anything special after all
[02:55] <faemir> ^true
[02:55] <Johto> macd: boat
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> faemir: i never had much luck uninstalling the desktop, would always uninstall the desktop, leave the packages, or leave some packages..
[02:55] <mechdave> Anlar, Cheers I got apt-cdrom add to work and managed to add the files, thanks!
[02:55] <faemir> IndyGunFreak, that's why you use aptitude not apt-get
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> faemir: lol, true, i'm an apt-get whore
[02:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Anlar: Not easy to fix.. even the bot here says sometimes easier to reinstall
[02:56] <faemir> that's why then ;P
[02:56] <yellow_chicken> want to install manpage for c++, which package do i need in synaptic?
[02:56] <sam1337> when I start an opengl application such as ut2004, torcs and glxgears with compiz, nvidia driver and aiglx enabled the application crashes and restarts my x. does anybody know what the problem may be? I've already tried reinstalling my graphics driver.
[02:56] <Anlar> Jack_Sparrow: the bot is one of the most retarded bots I have ever seen, I ignored it and its users when I arrived this channel
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> Anlar: some automatix probs are difficult to trace.
[02:57] <Anlar> Jack_Sparrow: what the automatix does takes only some 5 minutes to do manually anyways, reverting and finding those problems usually takes like seconds
[02:57] <Ifreeze> is there a way in gnome to add the arrows at side of a bar like in kde , so i can capture my full screen without bars..?
[02:57] <Anlar> soup time :P
[02:58] <Rotlaus> yellow_chicken: manpages-dev
[02:59] <sq89> Ifreeze: rightclick the panel, choose Properties, you'll see an option there
[02:59] <Ifreeze> sq89, ok ill look
[02:59] <yellow_chicken> Rotlaus: i've already done that, it's only gave me c, but no c++
[02:59] <else> how can i fix my locales? they're broken: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[03:00] <Ifreeze> sq89, thx alot... thats what i wanted :)
[03:00] <sq89> you're welcome :-)
[03:00] <exyan> how do I get limewire working if I can't install java Oo
[03:00] <Ifreeze> exyan, u use 64 bit os
[03:00] <dredhammer> hello is there a wiki or FAQ somewhere that explains how one adds a Patch to a linux program before compiling?
[03:00] <exyan> Ifreeze: yes
[03:01] <Ifreeze> exyan, same to me i only get flash to work ... cant fix java somehow ...
[03:01] <sq89> dredhammer: probably, but I think the command was patch -p0 file.patch
[03:01] <exyan> Ifreeze: know of any other p2p program?
[03:01] <sam1337>  when I start an opengl application such as ut2004, torcs and glxgears with compiz, nvidia driver and aiglx enabled the application crashes and restarts my x. does anybody know what the problem may be? I've already tried reinstalling my graphics driver.
[03:02] <Ifreeze> exyan, i used some torrents ...
[03:02] <exyan> torrents aren't good for music :)
[03:02] <user10> hhkjkjjjj
[03:02] <user10> nvc
[03:02] <Ifreeze> exyan, thats true ...
[03:02] <sq89> exyan: any reason why you use 64-bit? many people just switched to 32-bit
[03:02] <Catoptromancy_> after I edit fstab do I need to reboot or relogin for it to work?
[03:03] <exyan> sq89: and why should I use 32bit? linux is not windows, linux actually evolves and everything works better with native arch
[03:03] <Ifreeze> sq89, that i will do to :) when this one won't boot anymore , it just to annoying the 64 bit like eg: wine wont work , flash , java macromedia and lot of other stuff..
[03:04] <exyan> Ifreeze: blame binary :P
[03:04] <sq89> exyan: actually I've had a better experience with 64-bits windows than with linux :-)
[03:04] <Ifreeze> exyan, hehe D
[03:04] <Imitation> lfreeze: flash works, wine is out for 64bit feisty.
[03:04] <sq89> exyan: ubuntu currently doesn't focus on 64-bit. if you want to use that power, maybe gentoo is a better idea. 32-bits ubuntu works great though
[03:05] <exyan> sq89: depends what you use, I'm kinda only trying out ubuntu here and it's toooo much X, I mean they don't even want u to go root? lol?
[03:05] <exyan> sq89: and yep, I'm from the gentoo crowd :)
[03:05] <js_> exyan: sudo -s # voila
[03:05] <sq89> I've used gentoo for months, then switched to ubuntu's amd64 version, then moved to 32-bits :-)
[03:06] <exyan> sq89: I just don't like the whole new-user friendlyness thing here :/
[03:06] <exyan> sq89: that messes a lot of stuff up
[03:06] <sq89> exyan: I think many people will disagree, ubuntu is also used by advanced system administrators to run servers on afaik
[03:06] <Ifreeze> exyan, well its good for ppl like me , they come from windows and they can learn how to work with linux easy..
[03:07] <exyan> sq89: I mean, you see all the beautiful kde+beryl stuff, but you have totaly no idea what's under the hood
[03:07] <sq89> being friendly to new users is a good thing though :-)
[03:07] <winndixie> im gay!
[03:07] <sq89> exyan: why couldn't you have any idea what's under the hood? all man pages are there, and you can read all package sources if you'd want to
[03:07] <exyan> Ifreeze, sq89: u guys are right about friendlyness tho :) it rly is good ( my 1st distro was mandrake tbh :) )
[03:08] <Catoptromancy_> writing shells and compiling programs is really different other distros?
[03:09] <Ifreeze> exyan, well i think this one is a good "for starters" , but u can try lot of other distro's that are harder to get and more complicated...
[03:09] <Catoptromancy_> I assume you just download libs and run ./configure /make /make install
[03:09] <Catoptromancy_> works for all distros
[03:09] <brun0_|laptop> is there a way to find digikam 0.9.2 and kipi-plugins for ubuntu feisty ?
[03:10] <exyan> Ifreeze: I'd prefer debian if I'd want ubuntu for everyday use kinda
[03:10] <IdleOne> !info digikam feisty
[03:10] <ubotu> digikam: digital photo management application for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 2:0.9.1-1ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 4397 kB, installed size 14792 kB
[03:10] <brun0_|laptop> !info kipi-plugins feisty
[03:10] <sq89> exyan: why is that? (I was wondering about using debian myself too, but didn't know why I actually should :-)
[03:10] <ubotu> kipi-plugins: image manipulation/handling plugins for KIPI aware programs. In component main, is optional. Version 0.1.3-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 1882 kB, installed size 11572 kB
[03:10] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: if it's already in gutsy does it mean that i'll never come in feisty ?
[03:10] <jussi_> I need some help: I tried installing tuxguitar the other day  and the install froze in the package installer window. so i  rebooted and tried again. It then said that only one software  management tool is allowed to run at the same time. Can someone  help me with this problem?
[03:10] <exyan> sq89: ubuntu is like a fully configured debian with kde/gnome and all the shinny eyecandy imo ;)
[03:10] <IdleOne> brun0_|laptop, use either Adept or via Terminal apt-cache search package name
[03:11] <Ifreeze> exyan, i think the reason why there are so much ppl have ubuntu is the same as over here , its easy to download even free order, and its only 600mb of download ...
[03:11] <exyan> sq89: with a fast clean install etc
[03:11] <IdleOne> brun0_|laptop, digikam is in feisty
[03:11] <Ifreeze> exyan, and its a live cd ..
[03:11] <exyan> Ifreeze: well yeah, jump to ubuntu.com, click download, burn the cd and install :)
[03:11] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: i want 0.9.2 and kipi-plugins 0.1.4
[03:11] <brun0_|laptop> :)
[03:11] <Ifreeze> exyan, ...
[03:11] <sq89> exyan: and ubuntu's got nice things debian hasn't (afaik), like upstart
[03:11] <exyan> Ifreeze: and I think I'll save the kubuntu livecd, coz it's pretty much complete for use ;)
[03:12] <Ifreeze> :)
[03:12] <exyan> m ;] 
[03:12] <IdleOne> brun0_|laptop, try compiling it yourself but Im sure someone will backport them soon
[03:13] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: i've found unofficial packages but for i386
[03:13] <brun0_|laptop> would they work on amd64 ?
[03:13] <exyan> darn, now I'm thinking if it's ubuntu or is it kde that so works ;) I plug in my audio jack and it routs audio to my speakers instead of laptop speakers, detects all the usb flashes, cd's everything
[03:13] <IdleOne> brun0_|laptop, probaly not
[03:13] <oasisfai> anybody have experience with beryl?
[03:13] <exyan> also my hotkeys (play,pause, volume, mute, etc) work nice
[03:13] <oasisfai> i need some help.
[03:14] <IdleOne> oasisfai, #ubuntu-effects for help with beryl
[03:14] <winndixie> oasisfai: beryl was a pain in the rectum
[03:14] <oasisfai> thx idleOne
[03:14] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: and is there an easy and clean way to install a package using a source package ?
[03:14] <ShackJack> Compiz Fusion is the way forward :)
[03:14] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: (i've a deb-src for this package)
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> brun0_|laptop: why did you download 64bit in the first place?
[03:15] <brun0_|laptop> IndyGunFreak: because i've a 64bit computer
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> that not really a reason
[03:15] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: yes it is
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> i've got a 64bit PC, and i use 32bit.
[03:16] <winndixie> brun0_|laptop: u can run 32 bit programs with linux32 command
[03:16] <IdleOne> brun0_|laptop, if this is a fresh install I suggest you install the 32bit
[03:16] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: then you're weird ^^
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: if you guy swant to deal with the 64bit probs, have at it...
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> they should have a 64bit ubuntu channel fo ryou guys so you can discuss what doesn't work properly
[03:16] <exyan> :)
[03:16] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: not it's not a fresh install
[03:16] <jussi_> I need some help: I tried installing tuxguitar the other day  and the install froze in the package installer window. so i  rebooted and tried again. It then said that only one software  management tool is allowed to run at the same time. Can someone  help me with this problem?
[03:16] <ShackJack> 64 bit home computing = not quite ready for prime time ;)
[03:16] <brun0_|laptop> not a problem :)
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: exactly
[03:17] <ShackJack> Almost there, though...
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> tuxguitar?
[03:17] <brun0_|laptop> I never had big problems with 64 bits, just some packages unavailable
[03:17] <winndixie> why not
[03:17] <brun0_|laptop> neither my gentoo had problems
[03:17] <winndixie> 128 bit home gaming is past its prime
[03:17] <sq89> brun0_|laptop: for many people, not having flash and java is a problem :-)
[03:18] <brun0_|laptop> sq89: well ... indeed ubuntu isn't as good as gentoo for that
[03:18] <brun0_|laptop> :)
[03:18] <ShackJack> Don't forget the driver issue!
[03:18] <ShackJack> *issues...
[03:18] <brun0_|laptop> but in fact i've java actually
[03:18] <IdleOne> jussi_, try #ubuntu-studio
[03:18] <Rsarfirt> quit
[03:18] <winndixie> i don't see what the problem is, if you want 32 bit apps in a 64 bit linux just use linux32
[03:19] <winndixie> dry your eyes and get over it
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: are you sure you don't have a synaptic window open?
[03:21] <ziroday> does anyone know a good ftp client?
[03:21] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: yes i am
[03:21] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: ive reboted etc.
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: hmm, thats pretty wierd
[03:21] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: tell me about it .. :(
[03:22] <jussi_> IdleOne: ubuntu-studio @ freenode?
[03:22] <IdleOne> yes
[03:22] <jussi_> cheers
[03:22] <IdleOne> !ftp
[03:22] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: did you download the ubuntu binary package?
[03:23] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: yes i did.. and it froze in the package isntaller window
[03:23] <shadowmancer> i am trying to extract an rar archive, which is broken up and it is asking for a password
[03:23] <shadowmancer> does anyone have any advice
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: hmm, it worked fine for me.
[03:23] <shadowmancer> i know the initial rar did not have a password
[03:23] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: You need the password :) -- extra the .rar file...
[03:23] <ShackJack> 8extract
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: what version of ubuntu?
[03:24] <Ex-Cyber> ziroday: "good" depends on what you want out of it... personally I like the netbsd client (which is in the "tnftp" package), but sometimes I've used gftp and liked it as well
[03:24] <jussi_> 7.04 i think
[03:24] <shadowmancer> as well all the files are there
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: 32bit or 64?
[03:24] <shadowmancer> i have googled
[03:24] <wib> hi, i want to move my home folder to another partition. is this advisible?
[03:24] <shadowmancer> and still come up with nothing helpful
[03:24] <jussi_> 32 i believe
[03:24] <bulmer> jussi_: take a look at  /root/.synaptic/lock  if it exist..delete it if it does
[03:24] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: The original rar should have the password... .rar -- which extracts the remaining .rar0, .rar1, etc...... If you do not have the password you are out of luck...
[03:25] <sq89> wib: yes, you should have backups though
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i don;'t know, it worked perfectly for me, i'm looking at it now.
[03:25] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: You do not extract them individually...
[03:25] <shadowmancer> though thats the thing, the original rar does not have a pass worf
[03:25] <shadowmancer> word*
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: thats a cool program though... never saw anything like that
[03:25] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: What is the file extension of the one you are calling original - and what is extension of remaining?
[03:25] <jussi_> i need to terminate a package installer that is running somewhere somehow.. :S
[03:26] <shadowmancer> rar was the origina;
[03:26] <wib> sq89: i understand. thanks
[03:26] <shadowmancer> original*
[03:26] <brun0_|laptop> IdleOne: nothing works as good as compiling :)
[03:26] <shadowmancer> then it was broken down into rar parts
[03:26] <bulmer> jussi_: take a look at  /root/.synaptic/lock  if it exist.. <-- unlock it
[03:26] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: could not display "/root/.synaptic/lock". access is denied
[03:26] <ShackJack> !enter | shadowmancer
[03:26] <ubotu> shadowmancer: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: sounds like synaptic is open, and youre sure synaptic isnt open?
[03:26] <shadowmancer> sorry
[03:27] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: well i cant see it
[03:27] <IdleOne> IndyGunFreak, kill -9   Synaptic maybe zombied
[03:27] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: What is the answer to the second half of my question?
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> IdleOne: was just getting to that.
[03:27] <jussi_> i couldnt find it in apt-cache :S
[03:27] <shadowmancer> it is kept as an rar type file
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: you can also try going through system monitor, and see if you see synaptic there
[03:28] <azi> hm.. is there any way I could update my ubuntu box to a 64 bit version?
[03:28] <azi> without doing a reinstall
[03:28] <jussi_> let me take a closer look
[03:28] <jussi_> one second
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> azi: why would you want to
[03:28] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: O.K... they didn't pack it right... should have one .rar file (the master) which extracts .rar0, .rar1, etc.... fragments... If you just have a bunch of rar files and one os p/wds then someone is playin' you ;)
[03:29] <wib> sq89: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome <- is this how it's done?
[03:29] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: its under the simple name of synaptic in system monitor?
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> yes.
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> i think so.
[03:29] <azi> IndyGunFreak: i'd like to use the power of 64 bits of my CPU
[03:29] <shadowmancer> its stranger though i unpacked one somehow through a fluke and the movie works
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> azi: lol, ok, just prepare for things not to work
[03:29] <wib> sq89: like that?
[03:30] <azi> IndyGunFreak: so linux systems sucks like windows compatibility?
[03:30] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: nowhere to be found :(
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: no actually its not.
[03:30] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: oh :P
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> azi: pretty much but if you want to, i think you'll have to reinstall.
[03:30] <azi> IndyGunFreak: i don't see any problem with normal C code beeing run on 64 except if it was coded by dummies
[03:30] <inflex> what's the name of the Sudoku game that's default in Ubuntu?
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> azi: then by all means, install it.
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> just prepare for issues.
[03:31] <inflex> I tried gnudoku but it was bleah
[03:31] <sq89> wib: GParted and ubuntu's partitioning system has changed since that page was written, it probably is a bit different now...
[03:31] <ShackJack> inflex: It's part of the gnomes games package...
[03:31] <IdleOne> infinite, Sudoku
[03:31] <IdleOne> inflex, ^^
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i don't know..., try idle one's suggestion, kill -9
[03:32] <inflex> hmmm... I have gnomegames installed... can't find sudoku :(
[03:32] <jussi_> i type "kill -9" in terminal?
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i'm not sure to be truthful, ask him
[03:32] <wib> sq89: yeah. i have the new partion ready anyway, so i just have to move the home folder. okthx
[03:32] <flash42> what ya want to kill
[03:32] <sq89> ok :-)
[03:32] <ShackJack> inflex: Hmmm... might be a Gutsy thing - but I thought it was added in Feisty... Right click menu make sure it's not checked out for some reason...
[03:32] <inflex> ah!!! gnome-sudoku
[03:32] <jussi_> flash42: synaptic i think
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> flash42: yeah, but i'm not even 100% sure its running, only thing i can figure.
[03:33] <jussi_> IdleOne: what do i type inorder to kill synaptic?
[03:33] <inflex> ShackJack: tx, actually running Fluxbox here on Feisty :)
[03:33] <IdleOne> jussi_, in terminal type ps aux and see if synaptic is there
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol, yeah that will be easy
[03:34] <shadowmancer> who knows anything about winrar
[03:34] <kaneda> hey
[03:34] <bobodclown> lo all, Having an off problem here. Running ubuntu off a portable drive with win2000 on internal drive. Bios set to boot first from USB, 2nd from HDD, Using NTFS-config to access internal drives.
[03:34] <IdleOne> jussi_, then you type kill -9 and the PID ( Set of numbers in the second colomn. i.e pid -9 12345 )
[03:34] <bobodclown> Something now broken, win installer reports internal partitions as unformatted or damaged
[03:34] <flash42> jussi_: sudo kill -9 PID
[03:34] <bobodclown> and wont boot, any ideas?
[03:35] <jussi_> IdleOne: what direcotry is it in?? or is it jsut called synaptic?
[03:35] <flash42> jussi_: first you type : ps aux | grep synaptic
[03:35] <shadowmancer> does anyone know how to extract segmented .rar files, that were segmented by winrar
[03:35] <flash42> jussi_: if there is a line starting with root
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: see if you see    gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic
[03:36] <jussi_> ok will try
[03:36] <IdleOne> anything that says synaptic needs to be killed
[03:36] <IdleOne> if more then one pid then kill all of them
[03:36] <ShackJack> shadowmancer: I don't think you'll find any more info other than what I've already given you...
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> IdleOne: how do you kill again?
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> kill -9?
[03:37] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: nothing there
[03:37] <riaal> Can someone please tell me what the exec command does? The bash manpage is really confusing.
[03:37] <IdleOne> IndyGunFreak, either kill PID or kill -9 PID is a force quit
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i have no idea.
[03:37] <bulmer> jussi_: take a look at  /root/.synaptic/lock  if it exist.. <-- unlock it  ie attempt to remove this
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> IdleOne: ok, it worked, i just kille dsomething to try it, never done it that way
[03:38] <jussi_> bulmer: access denied it says
[03:38] <bulmer> jussi_: sudo to remove it
[03:38] <shadowmancer> shackjack: well thanks for the help, now i need to go beat a friend senseless
[03:38] <bulmer> riaal: it spawns or forks a new process
[03:38] <jussi_> in terminal i type "sudo /root/.synaptic/lock"??
[03:39] <bulmer> jussi_: man rm
[03:39] <riaal> bulmer, meening? :S
[03:39] <jussi_> bulmer: man rm?+
[03:39] <bulmer> riaal: means...umm  man exec
[03:39] <Roey> gnomefreak:  hello

[03:39] <gnomefreak> Roey: hi
[03:39] <Roey> hey!
[03:39] <IdleOne> jussi_, sudo rm /root/.synaptic/lock
[03:40] <jussi_> IdleOne: cheers
[03:40] <IdleOne> rm = remove/delete
[03:40] <Roey> gnomefreak:  so /you're/ John Vivirito!  Cool, I had been wanting to ask you about this:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/125131
[03:40] <IdleOne> !cli | jussi_
[03:40] <gnomefreak> Roey: what about it?
[03:40] <ubotu> jussi_: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[03:41] <Roey> gnomefreak:  what is the next step with the process of getting it available for the users?  (I enabled feisty-proposed in my debian sources.list but I still didn't see the package available for apt-getting)
[03:41] <gnomefreak> Roey: it already is just add the feisty-proposed repos
[03:41] <jussi_> jussi@jussi-ubuntu:~$ sudo rm /root/.synaptic/lock
[03:41] <jussi_> Password:
[03:41] <jussi_> jussi@jussi-ubuntu:~$
[03:41] <jussi_> is it unlocked now?
[03:41] <gnomefreak> Roey: it has a bunch of tests to get through before it hits security
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: probably.
[03:41] <coltrane> hi, please help me : Ubuntu 7.04 / GeforceFX5900XT, I have 2 monitors) : With nvidia-settings, I select 1024*768 and 85 Hz then i save my configuration to xorg.conf with the "save to X configuration file" button.

[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: try to run the .deb again
[03:42] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: ok will do
[03:42] <Roey> gnomefreak:  I tried to google how to do that but I couldn't find exactly how to add that... what should the deb source line look like?
[03:42] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Why did he past that? ;)
[03:42] <IdleOne> jussi_, try doing watever it is you did that told you it was locked
[03:42] <ShackJack> *paste
[03:42] <Roey> gnomefreak:  and is it gutsy-proposed or feisty-proposed?
[03:42] <gnomefreak> Roey: once in -proposed the archive admins/core devel ext... have to look at it
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: lol, dont know.

[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: completely shut down, then turn back on, something isn't making sense
[03:43] <shadowmancer> i mean repositories

[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: can you open synaptic, or do you get the same error.

[03:47] <ShackJack> jussi_: Run dpkg --configure -a  ;)
[03:47] <Roey> gnomefreak:  Is -proposed like sid in debian in that I shouldn't update my installation from it because it will break packages sometimes?
[03:47] <gnomefreak> jussi_: sudo dpkg --configure -a still failed?
[03:47] <IdleOne> jussi_, dpkg --configure -a
[03:47] <flash42> jussi_: and have you run dpkg --configure -a already?

[03:51] <Palimpsest> hmm, computer literate, what that mean?
[03:51] <ubotu> AcidX: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:51] <IdleOne> no really I make pizza for a living :)
[03:51] <buzzbuzz> AcidX: just post your problem
[03:51] <jussi_> IdleOne: still getting the error after that sudo dpkg --configure -a

[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> turn one on
[03:51] <cornell_> How is a domain name set on Dapper?  I've a home LAN that has a domain name (xyz.com).  I've created a subnet (xyz.net) and am migrating the workstations thereto in preparation of dropping the original net and using only the subnet.  The first machine I put on was a relatively new feisty install, it woke up as feistyName.xyz.net.  The second machine, an old dapper install, connects to the subnet, but still thinks it's dapperName.xyz.

[03:51] <AcidX> blah wait :S
[03:51] <ShackJack> coltrane: With respect to refresh 68-80 I wouldn't worry about it too much - refresh rate does not have same effect on your eyes with LCDs as it does with CRTs...
[03:51] <jussi_> IdleOne: no probs mate. thanks for your time

[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: so you still can't get it installed?
[03:53] <coltrane> shackjack : when the refresh rate is 68, the size of the screen is smaller
[03:53] <jussi_> nope :( synaptic gives me the same error after doing sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:53] <AcidX> am
[03:53] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i really don't know... this makes no sens.e
[03:53] <ShackJack> coltrane: Ahh,, I see... In my xorg.conf.. you can "force" a refresh rate usually by just VertRefresh 80.0-80.0  etc...
[03:53] <buzzbuzz> Has anyone finally got a solution for Hackety Hack? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=433122&page=2

[03:54] <AcidX> IndyGunFreak no
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: reinstall, that will kill synaptic, i promise.. ;)
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: reburn the ISO, at a slower speed.
[03:54] <AcidX> IndyGunFreak i don't think that is problem :/
[03:54] <AcidX> because look
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: if that doesn't work, download and burn the alternate install cd
[03:54] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: yeah true :D not sure if i want to reinstall though :D
[03:55] <coltrane> shackjack ok i didn't know. but what i write for HorizSync?

[03:55] <AcidX> it comes there when it checs something dunno what it says all OK
[03:55] <coltrane> flash42 my monitors are not lcd
[03:55] <ShackJack> coltrane: Depends on your monitor - consult docs or leave as a range (though that might not work ;))
[03:55] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: Did that dpkg -command ran without errors/ try it again
[03:55] <AcidX> and then blue/gray screen pops up
[03:55] <AcidX> and is blank :S
[03:55] <buzzbuzz> AcidX: Try burning with 4x Speed, like he said
[03:55] <buzzbuzz> or even slower
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> buzzbuzz: he doens't think thats the problem..lol

[03:56] <AcidX> ok i will try at 4x speed
[03:56] <AcidX> brb
[03:56] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Yeah, I feel ya :)
[03:56] <buzzbuzz> Good Luck, AcidX
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: woulda been one thing if he said, "i already tried that"
[03:57] <flash42> coltrane: after you have checked monitor specs you should be able to create a modline for the desired refresh rate
[03:57] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: I think ubuntu needs a #ubuntu-help-rants channel :)
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: lmao.. perfect!
[03:57] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: I'd be in there all the time!
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: i'll talk to seveas about it.

[03:57] <Hazler> Hey can someone help me with my Screen Resolution, for some reason it just went from 1280x1024 to 640x800
[03:57] <thul> any suggestions?
[03:58] <Hazler> and it keeps doing that
[03:58] <jussi_> ive been trying to use package installer, not synaptic
[03:58] <Hazler> And i cant put it back to 1280x1024
[03:58] <flash42> Hazler: did you hit ctrl_alt +
[03:58] <flash42> :)
[03:58] <Hazler> ctrl_alt and +?
[03:59] <flash42> yeah
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: shut down, eat lunch, watch movie Titanic, then boot up and see if it works... I'll never forget someone telling me they thought their PC needed to rest
[03:59] <Hazler> Doesnt work
[03:59] <flash42> it's a shortcut that changes the desktop resolution
[03:59] <mrsno> IndyGunFreak shutting down + starting your pc uses more power than leaving it idle :-)
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> mrsno: i know that, but he's having package issues, that nobody can figure out, this isn't a power issue.
[04:00] <ShackJack> Hazler: did you sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org already?

[04:00] <verte> hi all. just wondering, do you suppose it is safe to rm /var/log/* ?
[04:00] <jussi_> oye! synaptic now says "you have 1 broken package on your system! Use toe "broken" filter to locate it."
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: well, there you go..
[04:00] <jussi_> the.. not toe :D
[04:00] <jussi_> what is the broken filter?
[04:01] <coltrane> flashjack i changed  "VertRefresh     50.0 - 160.0" to "VertRefresh     85.0 - 85.0" (and left  HorizSync       30.0 - 98) in the monitor section of xorg.conf. When I start gnome , the frequency is still 68Hz
[04:01] <slipknot666> hi guys, wer can i find ebook for linux admin?
[04:01] <ShackJack> jussi_: See filters on lower left...

[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: can you fix it?
[04:01] <Stuart87> Does anyone know how to build a system that boots straight into an app, and does nothing else?
[04:01] <verte> that's fantastic, thankyou!
[04:02] <Stuart87> I don't need a step by step, just a prod in the right direstion
[04:02] <jussi_> dunno how to fix it..
[04:02] <ShackJack> coltrane: That's for the correct monitor?
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> highlight it, right click, mark for reinstallation maybe?
[04:02] <coltrane> yes
[04:02] <jussi_> ok fixed
[04:02] <ShackJack> revilodraw: Which media player?
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> ok, now close synaptic, and try to run your .deb file
[04:02] <Stuart87> Does anyone know how to build a system that boots straight into an app, and does nothing else? Can I do it with just Xterm and Xorg??
[04:03] <flash42> coltrane: you should edit the modeline
[04:03] <jussi_> i shall try again.. how can i make synaptic the default package manager when download crap with firefox?

[04:04] <core22> and
[04:04] <danuthaiduc> core22: you dont know the folder it serves?
[04:04] <ShackJack> coltrane: Just wondering - do you have to save it nvidia settngs or apply it somehow?
[04:04] <flash42> coltrane: X checks your modeline in Monitor Section
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: is it working?
[04:04] <jussi_> just trying it with package manager
[04:04] <core22> and my apache is unreachable when i am not connected to a network
[04:04] <icf7> Stuart87: Without a WM ... mmm, sorry, can't give you a good pointer
[04:05] <Hazler> Yea, sorry bout that
[04:05] <flash42> coltrane: if there is none it checks the screen section matchin your monitor
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: how are you doing that?
[04:05] <Hazler> The screen resoulution thing didnt work
[04:05] <core22> and my KNetworkManager is started
[04:05] <Hazler> it failed
[04:05] <danuthaiduc> it has to be connected to be able to serve other computers
[04:05] <revilodraw> shackjack: exaile
[04:05] <Stuart87> icf7: i was thinking about using an infra red remote control
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: what are you doing again.?
[04:05] <core22> if i kill my KNetworkManager
[04:05] <jussi_> i opened the tuxgutiar.deb package in the firefox download window.. package installer is now isntalling dependencies
[04:06] <jussi_> not getting that error message again
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: ok...
[04:06] <core22> my apache was reachable again
[04:06] <jussi_> let see if it works
[04:06] <Hazler> Umm, the screen resolution thing like.....just closed Linux
[04:06] <danuthaiduc> i don't know
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: it should work, i don't know what your problem was.
[04:06] <jussi_> its prepaering sun-java now
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: applications/soundvideo
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: see, it was a java issue the whole time
[04:06] <coltrane> shackjack can i show you my xorg.conf?
[04:06] <jussi_> possibly.. didnt have it before
[04:06] <ShackJack> revilodraw: I'm not positive, but I don't think version in repos supports that... but you have to get the svn version (they have a repo for fesisty) -- check out exaile.org or #exaile for deets... I'm using SVN with my wma files (though it reports the bit rate wrong)...
[04:06] <buzzbuzz> Tell me what to do, I'm bored
[04:06] <buzzbuzz> :D
[04:06] <Ifreeze> anyone know a tutorial or stuff, to set up a proxy server?
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: yeah, looks like it broke while installing for some reason
[04:07] <ShackJack> coltrane: Don't show to me personally, as I may not have the answer, but feel free to pastebin...
[04:07] <revilodraw> shackjack; thanks!
[04:07] <icf7> Stuart87: well, you might try to disable starting of anything but X and try to add your own script, maybe a login manager's start script would be a good starting point for that
[04:07] <jussi_> cuz i rebooted the pc in the middle of the installation because i thougt it froze
[04:07] <timstokman> hi, I am trying to setup full disk encryption and I have to execute some stuff when the ramfs initialized
[04:07] <timstokman> I have a guide for ubuntu LTS
[04:07] <timstokman> but the config files have changed
[04:08] <ShackJack> !enter | timstokman
[04:08] <ubotu> timstokman: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:08] <bimmelim> is it possible to clock down the amd cpu on my easynote laptop to avoid having the fan on all the time ( and where would such a question be appropriate? ) ?
[04:08] <Stuart87> icf7: Thanks. Would I still be able to run a GUI app though?
[04:08] <buzzbuzz> Are there other or even better Firewalls than Firestarter for Ubuntu?
[04:08] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: its still preparing the sun-java6-jre .. taking ages
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: java takesa  while, let it work
[04:09] <icf7> Stuart87: yeah, but presumably just one. I don't know much about wm-less X, so I can't really help you there
[04:09] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: i shall
[04:09] <ShackJack> bimmelim: Not sure where to ask but there is a CPU frequency monitor for gnome panel - not sure what control that gives you over freq for amd chips though...
[04:10] <b0ha> hello
[04:10] <bimmelim> ShackJack: I would love that. What is the name of the package?
[04:10] <b0ha> is anyone using rtorrent here?
[04:10] <coltrane> here is the pastebin of my xorg.conf
[04:10] <viller> when using rdesktop a window with the other computer's display should open?
[04:10] <coltrane> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31801/
[04:10] <ShackJack> bimmelim: No package - just add to panel and it's already in there :)
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i like this program.. i suck just as bad with it, as i do playing the real piano.
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> i've almost got mary had a little lamb down
[04:10] <b0ha> im wondering how to download only one file
[04:10] <Justi1> after I install windows, if I destroy the windows boot loader, will I still be able to load windows with GRUB?
[04:11] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: I'm
[04:11] <buzzbuzz> Is it recommended to use a Firewall like Firestarter in Ubuntu, and if yes, are there better ones than FIrestarter?
[04:11] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: it relly does rock.. ive been using guitar pro for windows
[04:11] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: it looks pretty cool
[04:11] <viller> Justi1: yes
[04:11] <b0ha> _GoRDoN_, do you know how to select only some files to download
[04:12] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: ye. :) cant wait to get it to work
[04:12] <ShackJack> bimmelim: There is cpudyn which is a frequency control if panel applet doesn;t do the trick... or cpufreqd daemon
[04:12] <viller> buzzbuzz: firestarter is just an interface for iptables which is the firewall installed by default
[04:12] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: Do you know how to move to tab where files are?
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> jussi01: hit "details" and see what its doing
[04:12] <viller> buzzbuzz: you don't NEED to do anything because it's already safe enough
[04:12] <b0ha> _GoRDoN_, yes
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> oops, jussi_ hit details and see what its doing
[04:12] <ShackJack> !iptables | buzzbuzz
[04:12] <ubotu> buzzbuzz: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:13] <bimmelim> The cpu-freq monitor says 663MHz. There is some indication that that my change ( common in laptops I guess ). Mabe it is possible to prevent it from stepping up freq.
[04:13] <zmeiat_joro_> Firestarter is not a seperate firewall, it's a graphical interface for the one that's built it, iptables, IIRC
[04:13] <K-Dogg> Anyone here had Compiz-Fusssion running?
[04:13] <buzzbuzz> viller: Alright, so I can leave it out?
[04:13] <buzzbuzz> Aah
[04:13] <buzzbuzz> OK
[04:13] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: Just use space to change files mode(off/high/-)
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> !compiz | K-Dogg
[04:13] <ubotu> K-Dogg: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:13] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: details where? its still preparing sun-java6 :O
[04:13] <ShackJack> buzzbuzz: Yep, esp if you already have hardware router with firewall capabilities built in...
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: there's not a thing there that says "details" or something like that, where you can click it, ?
[04:13] <buzzbuzz> ShackJack: just what I got ;)
[04:13] <K-Dogg> tnx
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> and watch it progress
[04:13] <Justi1> after I install windows, if I reinstall GRUB but leave the windows boot loader intact, will it still boot with GRUB?
[04:14] <jussi_> no. only says terminal, IndyGunFreak
[04:14] <buzzbuzz> justi1: no
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[04:14] <b0ha> _GoRDoN_, tnx very much. Is it possible to turn all files off at same time?
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: does it look like its working?
[04:14] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: nothing has happened for atleast five minutes
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[04:15] <b0ha> _GoRDoN_, because if i have a lot files i dont want to press space for each file :p
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: well, let it run for a minute.
[04:15] <K-Dogg> Anyone had problems with compizfusion with windows borders?
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: i did w/ beryl...
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> and nvidia
[04:16] <yrjan> hmmm, 7.04 isn't giving me frequency scaling on my laptop. Anyone with a clue as to why?
[04:16] <yrjan> it's Pentium M Sonoma
[04:16] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: yupp.. not doing the same mistake of shutting it down again
[04:16] <K-Dogg> I had ATi
[04:16] <ShackJack> K-Dogg: check out #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion for expert help - I have not had issues...
[04:16] <yrjan> so it should be supported
[04:16] <K-Dogg> ok
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: ati sucks for linux
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: do you have nvidia now?
[04:17] <K-Dogg> but i can't cvhange
[04:17] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Actually once you get it going it runs fusion O.K. :) -- but you have to run cruddy XGL :(
[04:17] <K-Dogg> is a laptop
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: i never got dual screens to work with ATI, it was easy w/ Nvidia
[04:17] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: I'm not sure if that is possible, I haven't yet find a key to do that so I have used space even it is annoying
[04:17] <K-Dogg> IndyGunFreak, thanks for the advice
[04:18] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Good point - I've never tried doing anything really advanced with ATI
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: well, dual monitors is nearly impossible, at least it was for me, i googled till my eyes bled.
[04:18] <reverseblade> ATI has a nice OS driver
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> ATI sucks.
[04:18] <Justi1> if I enter the free command in terminal, how can I determine if swap is being used?
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> i used to like it under Windows.
[04:19] <azi> hm.. i've noticed that every 10-15 minutes X freezes on my laptop.. anyone experinced this kind of issues?
[04:19] <yrjan> Justi1: there's an entry for it
[04:19] <yrjan> Justi1: looking something like this:
[04:19] <yrjan> Justi1: Swap:      2000084      45460    1954624
[04:19] <K-Dogg> IndyGunFreak, but nVidia had better driver for linux right?
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: well, it was a heckuva lot easier to set up.
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> ALOT.
[04:19] <Justi1> yrjan: if they all say 0, its not being used I guess
[04:19] <ShackJack> Justi1: Or just run top in another terminal  :)
[04:19] <K-Dogg> aigt
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> dual screens took me about 5min w/ Nvidia.
[04:19] <yrjan> Justi1: that means there is no swap ...
[04:19] <kditty> im trying to get a computer online that i just installed feisty on. the network shows up, the card shows up but it doesnt seem to connect. all available networks are in the list though and when i connect it still wont connect to any sites. anyone know what could be the problem?
[04:20] <yrjan> Justi1: the first one is the amount of swap space available
[04:20] <K-Dogg> ok but my latop has a IGP with ati
[04:20] <Justi1> yrjan: it says 0
[04:20] <yrjan> Justi1: hmmm
[04:20] <thinh> anyone have problem with the keyring?
[04:20] <reverseblade> kditty, how are you trying to access that computer
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: i know that, i didn't say you need to switch, just telling you ati sucks for linux
[04:20] <K-Dogg> i keep it mind ;)
[04:21] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: hah... I googled and found that you can use * to change mode for all files
[04:21] <Palimpsest> true ati sucks on linux :(
[04:21] <reverseblade> IndyGunFreak, you hate'em don't you
[04:21] <yrjan> Justi1: try running 'sudo swapon -a'
[04:21] <kditty> reverseblade: im not sure what you mean. its a computer in a different room, that i need to connect to the internet
[04:21] <_GoRDoN_> b0ha: http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentUserGuide
[04:21] <ShackJack> K-Dogg: You know what chipset ?  ATI will work fine if you are just doing compiz stuff :) Just a little tricker to setup...
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> reverseblade: i don/t know where you got that idea... ;0
[04:21] <K-Dogg> 200M
[04:21] <yrjan> Justi1: after running that run free again
[04:21] <K-Dogg> but the only problems is the windows borders with compiz
[04:21] <thinh> when i boot up my machine the keyring shows up when i try to input the passworrd it goes away and show on the taskbar but when i click on it it doesnt pop up
[04:21] <K-Dogg> 3d cube work perfect
[04:21] <Justi1> yrjan: swapon: cannot stat /dev/disk/by-uuid/f4c40022-0406-4e5e-9ca5-8fdbafbdc1aa: No such file or directory
[04:22] <aa^way> Hello! how i could turn out VSync in linuX ?
[04:22] <ShackJack> K-Dogg: So there are no borders or something?
[04:22] <yrjan> Justi1: hmm
[04:22] <reverseblade> IndyGunFreak, probably you once owned and ati and you curse it. and as a punishment to ati , you discourage everyone else
[04:22] <yrjan> Justi1: that's very weird
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> K-Dogg: i had that prob with nvidia when i set up beryl, i ran a terminal command to fix it.
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> reverseblade: somethin like that.. :)\
[04:22] <yrjan> Justi1: your fstab might not be correct
[04:22] <reverseblade> kditty, you are trying to connect from where to where ?
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> the command was fairly specific to nvidia though, so i dont think it will work with ati
[04:22] <Justi1> yrjan: what is fstab?
[04:23] <yrjan> Justi1: it's /etc/fstab
[04:23] <K-Dogg> but compiz was running fine till yesterday
[04:23] <b0ha> thank you _GoRDoN_
[04:23] <Palimpsest> ok back to lfs, bye
[04:23] <yrjan> Justi1: it determines where your partitions will be mounted
[04:23] <kditty> from the desktop, to the internet. wireless card to wireless router, is that what you mean?
[04:23] <ShackJack> !fstab | Justi1
[04:23] <ubotu> Justi1: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[04:23] <reverseblade> kditty, ok so where is the problem ?
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> lfs?...boy thats a brave soul
[04:23] <Wayfarer247> I wonder who remembers me, lol
[04:24] <kditty> reverseblade: when i click the network icon to connect to my wireless network, it asks for the key, i type it in and it says connected but web pages wont load, and pings are unsucessful
[04:24] <reverseblade> kditty, okay
[04:24] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: still preparing java .. O_o
[04:24] <reverseblade> kditty, can you ping to your wireless router ?
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: don't think it should take this long.
[04:24] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: exactly :/
[04:25] <ShackJack> kditty: Good troubleshooting guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[04:25] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: Are you using synaptic etc..
[04:25] <jussi_> _GoRDoN_: using package installer.. so yea i guess
[04:25] <kditty> reverseblade: would i ping 192.168.1.1? thats the pagwe i access to change settings
[04:26] <Justi1> yrjan: how can I fix the fstab file?
[04:26] <reverseblade> kditty, yes try to ping there
[04:26] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: _GoRDoN_ i are noob.. got it :P
[04:26] <reverseblade> kditty, it is a page in your router/dsl modem to configure the modem. The router runs a mini-webserver in deed
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: i gathered.. :)
[04:27] <kayzu> hey.. does anyone know if there is a linux version of logitech setpoint? is there a way to get all buttons on my g5 mouse working?
[04:27] <jussi_> had to accept the crap in the terminal by typing more, more, more,more, yes etc. :P
[04:27] <TtyS2> kgitty are  u given ip from your dhcp
[04:27] <reverseblade> kayzu, you mean linux distro, rather than  version
[04:27] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: because sometimes when i used package manager it failed when installer asked something from user
[04:27] <aa^way> hey how to remove vSync in linux
[04:27] <TtyS2> kditty are  u given ip from your dhcp
[04:27] <Ifreeze> is there a command to let your screensaver start?
[04:28] <jussi_> _GoRDoN_: ive experienced that too, but im on admin
[04:28] <yrjan> Justi1: wait a sec, I'll try to come up with a decent explanation
[04:28] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: installed :)
[04:28] <reverseblade> aa^way, which graphics card ?
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: thank goodness
[04:28] <jussi_> thanks a million for your help though lads :D
[04:28] <AcidX> hello it's me again
[04:29] <jussi_> especially u IndyGunFreak :)
[04:29] <reverseblade> AcidX, oh no it's you again
[04:29] <AcidX> :S
[04:29] <kditty> TtyS2: the ip is only given when i connect
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: no sweat.. thats actually a cool program... i'll mess with it some more.
[04:29] <xubu_nosound> Hi all! I need help with xubuntu... just upgraded edgy to feisty and now the sound is gone... neither the embedded sound card or the audigy 2zs works...
[04:29] <reverseblade> kditty, can you ping or not ?
[04:29] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: me too
[04:29] <AcidX> i fixed that problem soo i disabled FDD
[04:29] <ShackJack> kayzu: I don't know about that but there is this guide for G7 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/G7Mouse
[04:29] <AcidX> but now i got other problem
[04:29] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: Have you tried to use apt-get or aptitude
[04:29] <kditty> reverseblade: to ping 192.168.1.1 is unsuccessful
[04:29] <jussi_> _GoRDoN_: nope
[04:30] <AcidX> when it's loading ubuntu
[04:30] <AcidX> comes to end
[04:30] <reverseblade> kditty, ok, try: sudo dhclient
[04:30] <AcidX> and then there is just blank sreen :S
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | AcidX
[04:30] <ubotu> AcidX: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:30] <Ifreeze> is there a command to let your screensaver start (terminal command)
[04:30] <Justi1> !swap
[04:30] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[04:30] <AcidX> ubotu ok
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ok - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <kayzu> ShackJack: thanks, i'll have a look at that
[04:30] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: can you abort the installation
[04:30] <reverseblade> AcidX, ubotu is a bot :)
[04:30] <jussi_> _GoRDoN_: dont need to anymore. it finished it :P
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> _GoRDoN_: he got it installed
[04:31] <AcidX> :P
[04:31] <_GoRDoN_> jussi_: oh... I was late
[04:31] <reverseblade> AcidX, well did you successfully make installation
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: do ou have a slow connection?... cuz java doesn't usually take that long.
[04:31] <shmeebegek> is it possible to use Windows sound drivers on Ubuntu? (ndiswrapper seems to do this for networking drivers)
[04:31] <AcidX> reverseblade i didn't even get to it :S
[04:31] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: 10/10mb vdsl.. O_o
[04:31] <reverseblade> AcidX, so you cannot boot from live CD , is that so ?
[04:32] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: No - alsa handles the sound :)
[04:32] <erUSUL> shmeebegek: no, that's impossible afaik
[04:32] <reverseblade> shmeebegek, why the hell would you want that
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: hm, maybe the server was just slow.
[04:32] <shmeebegek> my sound comes through my mic jack
[04:32] <aa^way> reverseblade: Nvidia
[04:32] <jussi_> could be
[04:32] <kditty> reverseblade: dhdiscover 255.255.255.255 port 67
[04:32] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: Did you try the #alsa chat?
[04:32] <reverseblade> kditty, and in the end ... ?
[04:32] <shmeebegek> ShackJack: good call
[04:32] <aa^way> reverseable: nvidia geforce mx440 if you wanted know full name lol
[04:32] <AcidX> reverseblade i downloaded ubuntu 7 and something...and comes to end of loading screen and then i just get blank screen :S
[04:32] <TtyS2> kditty what ip do u have on ath0
[04:32] <kditty> reverseblade: it says something like that. the computer is upstairs so its hard to trouble shoot back and forth. brb
[04:33] <jussi_> now got trouble with the program :D "should probably reffer to the tuxguitar forums now :D
[04:33] <ShackJack> shmeebegek: You might have to be patient there or try going back, but I know they'd have solution for that or check alsa wiki
[04:33] <reverseblade> aa^way, there is an option  application> System Tools > Nvidia Settings
[04:33] <reverseblade> AcidX, Is your computer an HP pavillion laptop ?
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: you may be having some sort of hardware issue that is not allowing the live CD to start(not really uncommon).., try the text based install.
[04:33] <kditty> reverseblade: it says no dhcpoffers recieved
[04:33] <AcidX> IndyGunFreak how do i go into text based?
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: its a different iso.
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | AcidX
[04:34] <ubotu> AcidX: 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
[04:34] <reverseblade> kditty, okay , iwlist scan ?
[04:34] <AcidX> !minimal
[04:34] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:34] <aa^way> reverseblade cant find it :(.. well my windows is in other language so im not sure damn..isnt there terminal command or osmething?
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: i woudln't recommend minimal
[04:34] <AcidX> ok
[04:34] <reverseblade> aa^way, you can do it from Xorg.conf
[04:35] <reverseblade> aa^way, not sure though
[04:35] <reverseblade> AcidX, what is your computer's brand
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: minimal, it installs the kernel, then accesses the internet to download all packages, it can take a while depending on your connection
[04:35] <AcidX> i got 10mbps
[04:35] <kditty> reverseblade: iwlist scan picks up 3 different wireless networks in my area, and lists info about them
[04:35] <reverseblade> lol
[04:35] <reverseblade> kditty, is your modem also listed there ?
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: thats great, as long as all the servers are up and running.
[04:35] <AcidX> reverseblade its 700mhz 128mb ram
[04:36] <reverseblade> AcidX, it's an old one
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: thats your problem, you need to use the alternate install cd.
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> not enough ram
[04:36] <kditty> reverseblade: by modem do you mean wireless card? or my router?
[04:36] <ShackJack> AcidX: I'd prolly try xubuntu, though... or get at least 384MB ram for ubuntu
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> it should have said system requirements when you downloaded it.
[04:36] <reverseblade> AcidX, I recommend you Xubuntu instead of ubuntu. Xubuntu is for older systems
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: xubuntu is also good advice.
[04:36] <aa^way> reverseblade can you look it up? http://pastebin.ca/638072 not sure what i should do it
[04:36] <reverseblade> kditty, yes your router
[04:36] <Kragnerac> :)
[04:36] <AcidX> ShackJack xubuntu doesn't recognize my ethernet card :(
[04:37] <aa^way> looks like VetRefresh 50-75 should be 0 or no?
[04:37] <kditty> yes my wireless network is listed there reverseblade
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> what's the program ubuntu uses to display picture?
[04:37] <aa^way> VertRefresh*
[04:37] <ccl> davy ? gthumb ?
[04:37] <AcidX> and i can't type anything there where you must type username and that :S
[04:37] <Kragnerac> Davy_Jones: I believe it's Eye of Gnome.
[04:37] <erUSUL> Davy_Jones: there are many. eog is default afaik
[04:37] <ShackJack> AcidX: Mm.... it should - it's basically xubuntu with a differnet window mgr :)
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> ccl: it is gthumb, thanks a lot
[04:37] <AcidX> ok i will go try xubuntu once more :)
[04:37] <AcidX> brb
[04:37] <reverseblade> aa^way, sorry but goolge might help
[04:37] <andi_> hi
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> AcidX: try the alternate xubuntu cd
[04:38] <reverseblade> look at his quit message
[04:38] <andi_> I'd like to install beryl/compiz fr i850 card...
[04:38] <pivs> hi
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> bb in a few.
[04:38] <ShackJack> !hi | andi_
[04:38] <ubotu> andi_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:38] <andi_> where should I start?
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> reverseblade: i know, i was thinking the same thing
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:38] <Davy_Jones> i installed fluxbox and the xfe file manager so i need to do the associations all over again
[04:38] <ShackJack> andi - you want compiz fusion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompizFusion?highlight=%28fusion%29
[04:38] <ccl> is it worth it to hassle with the nvidia binary drivers if i'm not going to be doing any 3d stuff ?
[04:38] <andi_> I tried google but I couldn't find a real starting point
[04:38] <ShackJack> andi_: And check out #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion for more help...
[04:39] <andi_> thanks
[04:39] <ShackJack> ccl: Shouldn't be much hassle, but yeah, I'd say so... Compiz is also good for the windows compositing and the not 3d stuff (which you can turn off)
[04:40] <Davy_Jones> ccl: you never know when you're gonna need it.. besides, there is compiz, beryl, compiz-fusion
[04:40] <ccl> i dont use any of that stuff
[04:40] <ShackJack> ccl: Yeah, you would... but whatever...
[04:41] <Davy_Jones> ccl: is it a hassle to install the nvidia drivers? mine were kinda easy
[04:41] <berent> guys got my sound alsa hda working for intel-hda
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Laptop her gives can't access tty; job control turned off  trying to boot livecd-feisty but works fine booting livecd Dapper tried: irqpoll noapic nolapic and some others
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> here
[04:42] <ShackJack> berent: Sweet - what did you have to do modprobe modulename?
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ccl: You can always do the drivers if you want some of that..  I dont go for fluff, I am happy with std config.
[04:42] <ccl> i think i'm just being argumentative at this point... It's a hassle for me to look up how to set up the binary drivers, and I'd rather use the freely available ones if they're functional enough.
[04:43] <ShackJack> ccl: Just pop open restricted driver manager and they should download for yuo...
[04:43] <aa^way> does anyone know how to remove VSync in linux? Google gave nothing intresting =\
[04:43] <berent> ShackJack : nope . after all default things said in wiki and others i just had tried alsaconf . and never select oss instead of alsa mixer in sound preferences else u will have to restart !!!
[04:43] <ShackJack> ccl: If you're running compiz the window compositing, live previews, and other things just make for a smoother experience - even without the eye-candy. If you've got the hardware, might as well use it :)
[04:44] <MrCrAcK> hello
[04:44] <ShackJack> berent: :) Good glad you got it working... My brother has a Gateway he can't get sound on for the life of him :(
[04:44] <ShackJack> !hi | MrCrAcK
[04:44] <ubotu> MrCrAcK: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:44] <MrCrAcK> ShackJack hi
[04:44] <kditty> where can i download dapper drake? i know for sure that the wireless card works on dapper ive used it before
[04:45] <ShackJack> !wireless | kditty - you should check this out - if it worked on drake it'll work on Edgy Feisty
[04:45] <ubotu> kditty - you should check this out - if it worked on drake it'll work on Edgy Feisty: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:45] <Justi1> what program consumes the most ram?
[04:45] <ccl> firefox
[04:45] <ShackJack> Justi1: Check your system monitor for the answer... or top in a terminal
[04:46] <ShackJack> ccl: Heehee ya, FF can use a lot o' ram, depending...
[04:46] <ccl> depending on if it's running or not *rimshot*
[04:46] <Davy_Jones> Justi1: probably Azureus also
[04:47] <kditty> ShackJack: im nto familiar with the feisty wireless settings though. to configure is way different because it wants to do everything auto and i cant really set any options
[04:47] <berent> ShackJack : whats your bro's problem
[04:47] <ShackJack> kditty: Check out link to troubleshooting guide, really...
[04:47] <kditty> ok thanks
[04:47] <ShackJack> berent: Just no sund is all... ATI integrated chipset
[04:47] <Davy_Jones> why use laptops in the first place?
[04:48] <Davy_Jones> laptops always have heat problems and performance issues
[04:48] <berent> ShackJack : has it got detected lspci?
[04:48] <[V] 1rG1|1[0] > Un saluto a tutto #ubuntu !! [[[[Aqua Script] ] ] ] 
[04:48] <whonicca> man, if i could get lftp working with this ftp server i need it to connect to linux would be complete
[04:48] <whonicca> =(
[04:48] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Ummm portability... and mine has no heat issues or performance problems...
[04:48] <molnitza> Hello. I want to boot xubuntu from the live c, but i get errors: buffer i/o error on device fd0. Can i disable the floppy drive in the boot options?
[04:49] <ShackJack> berent: Thanks but not gonna troubleshoot it here...
[04:49] <Justi1> if 75% of ram is being used by dozens of firefox and open office docs, should some of the load be in the swap?

[04:53] <geartrooper> thanks
[04:53] <Davy_Jones> no prob
[04:54] <whonicca> is there any way to limit what ports ncftp uses for connecting?
[04:54] <geartrooper> it isn't working
[04:54] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: make sure java is installed

[04:55] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: type just java.. what do you see?
[04:55] <ShackJack> molnitza: I don't know how, but maybe physically diconnecting the drive would work :)
[04:55] <geartrooper> Davy_Jones, I have j2re1.2 installed
[04:55] <Ifreeze> hy iam editing my motd file i try to add some sentences like eg: ip: , kernel:,  is there any way to add a variable so he automatically detect what kernel it is ...
[04:55] <geartrooper> I see directions and parameters in using java
[04:56] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: good, so it's installed
[04:56] <Davy_Jones> geartrooper: that's how i run my .jar files.. i don't know what might be wrong
[04:57] <geartrooper> ok, thanks Davy_Jones
[04:57] <bulmer> geartrooper: java -jar fileof.jar
[04:58] <nikin> hy
[04:59] <nikin> hmm do you think that posting videos about how to do some things in ubuntu, on youtube is a good idea?
[04:59] <whonicca> is a remote control app installed on ubuntu by default that can be used to remote control xp?
[04:59] <nikin> honicca: what protocol you want to use?
[04:59] <Romnous> i have a question for you guys.
[05:00] <nikin> whonicca: what protocol you want to use?
[05:00] <ShackJack> !ask | Romnous
[05:00] <ubotu> Romnous: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:00] <Romnous> i want to run a linux server as gateway in a windows network, and have a mail server on it
[05:00] <Romnous> i'm running ubuntu already, but i want to know how to configure the mail server
[05:00] <bulmer> nikin: limit it to 10 minutes? i thought youtubes limit is 10 minutes
[05:00] <Ifreeze> iam editing motd, i try to add date:  and kernel:  so i want to add variables in this file that show the current date and current kernel can anyone help?
[05:01] <ShackJack> Romnous: Check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer?highlight=%28mail%29
[05:01] <whonicca> nikin, not sure
[05:01] <Romnous> the mail server must catch all the mails, and distribute them to different email accounts on windows computers in the network
[05:01] <Romnous> thx
[05:01] <TtyS2> whonicca: i uses therminal server client to control xp on a diff pc
[05:01] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i don't see how that helps, if it was a graphic design program, probably video tuts would be ok. but ubunut... i don't know
[05:02] <Romnous> thx for the link ShackJack, i'm gonna try it out!
[05:02] <nikin> whonicca: AFAIK in the network section of the menu there is a remote netork connection, or something like that... the default for XP is RDP if i remember good
[05:02] <ShackJack> nikin: Yeah, I think help.ubuntu.com does the job - provided ppl know to look there !
[05:03] <whonicca> nikin, where can i find this network section
[05:03] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see, so you think that text tutorials and walthrous are better...
[05:03] <rbrunhuber> I
[05:03] <nikin> Whonica: in the App menu
[05:03] <nikin> i dont use Gnome so i dont know ho it is called
[05:03] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: why cant i create new files in /lib
[05:03] <jussi_> or folders for that matter
[05:04] <nikin> jussi_: no rrot privileges
[05:04] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah, besides, in video tuts, you can't elaborate and say what problems you might run into cuz you got size limits.. but with text, you can cover all the aspects
[05:04] <whonicca> terminal server client =)
[05:04] <jussi_> how do i setup the provelages
[05:04] <Romnous> btw, shackjack.. are windows computers capable of connecting to the mailboxes to which the mailserver forwards the mails??
[05:04] <ShackJack> jussi_: You don't  use root to access it...
[05:04] <Ifreeze> !motd
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about motd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <ShackJack> Romnous: Yes, they should be, given an IP address :)
[05:04] <jussi_> how do i change user too root since i cant log in as root
[05:05] <Romnous> ok that's great !!
[05:05] <Ifreeze> iam editing motd, i try to add date:  and kernel:  so i want to add variables in this file that show the current date and current kernel can anyone help?
[05:05] <Romnous> thanks for the info
[05:05] <ziroday> !root | jussi
[05:05] <ubotu> jussi: 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
[05:05] <ShackJack> jussi_: sudo command....
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> nikin: probably very basic video tutorials for those intimidated about ubuntu might be ok
[05:05] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! I need help, please! My sound died after upgrading xubuntu to feisty! Neither embedded sound chips or the audigy 2 zs works... im stuck troubleshooting and need help!
[05:05] <nikin> Davy_Jones: yep, i see... so text tutorials and screenshots if nescesarry...
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> nikin: go to lynda.com.. you'll probably see what i mean
[05:06] <tom_> jussi: to set a root password do "sudo passwd"
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah
[05:06] <ShackJack> !sound | UbuntuN00B_HBG (did you see this?)
[05:06] <ubotu> UbuntuN00B_HBG (did you see this?): If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[05:06] <Silva> Hi do I have to install Nvid drivers to get my resolution above 1024?
[05:06] <obelix> Hi all. anyone knows about coctail database or software on ubuntu?
[05:06] <ziroday> Silva: what card?
[05:06] <Silva> geforce 7600
[05:06] <ShackJack> Silva: You should use nvidia drivers... dunno if you have to but it's a good idea..
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> Silva: why do you not install a driver for this lovely video card
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> Silva: use most out of it
[05:07] <Nookie^> can someone tell me how to unistall mac menu hack if someone have already done that?
[05:07] <jussi_> once ive setup the passwd i logon to root sudo root?
[05:07] <Davy_Jones> i think installing the drivers will provide better video playback, don't you think ShackJack?
[05:08] <Silva> ok do I just go to the nvid site and dl like I would in windows? or install from a repository?
[05:08] <Davy_Jones> especially HD videos
[05:08] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Silva: Yes, they will provide better vid playback, plus you can enable Compiz Fusion for a smoother desktop experience...
[05:08] <Silva> its my screen res im more concerned about, and the refresh rate
[05:08] <Davy_Jones> Silva: did you try the restricted drivers?
[05:08] <Silva> No im on a fresh install
[05:08] <ShackJack> Silva: Admin->Restarticted Drivers Manager
[05:08] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i want to start a blog about my work and drop in some tutorials on things, and problems that i encountered... like AMSN not working from automatix, and working with simple windowmanagers, notebook installing, FPC, Lazarus, and that kinda stuff :D
[05:09] <Davy_Jones> Silva: System > Admin > restricted drivers
[05:09] <ShackJack> Davy_Jones: Something like that :)
[05:09] <Silva> Davy_Jones: Ok thanks found that, trying it out
[05:09] <wippeout> i'm looking for someone who have a toshiba A100-948
[05:09] <Davy_Jones> nikin: DON'T teach people to use automatix please please please!!!!
[05:09] <jussi_> how do i get into root to create the new folders once i have the passwd?
[05:10] <shmeebegek> where should I ask questions about wireless LAN?
[05:10] <ShackJack> !ask | wippeout (computer model not so important as issue)
[05:10] <ubotu> wippeout (computer model not so important as issue): Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:10] <Silva> Davy_Jones: It will not enable in the Restricted Drivers Manager
[05:10] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i dont do it... itis about what if you used it, and f`cked up your programs like AMSN
[05:10] <ShackJack> !wireless | shmeebegek
[05:10] <ubotu> shmeebegek: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:10] <wippeout> i want to be able to set the contrast
[05:10] <wippeout> and the volume
[05:10] <troopperi_> !server
[05:10] <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
[05:10] <rbrunhuber> I'm using cyrus on feisty put can't get cyradm to work. Error is no "perl: worthy mechs found." in /var/log/authlog
[05:10] <wippeout> under windows, i put on Fn+F7
[05:11] <wippeout> but this combo doesn't work under my ubuntu feisty
[05:11] <ShackJack> Silva: What does it do when you try to check it - error messages?
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> nikin: well, as i told you, i prefer troubleshooting stuff with text HowTos and basic introductory stuff in video
[05:11] <Silva> gives me the warning about enabling it, then just does nothing
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> nikin: it's up to you to decide
[05:11] <Silva> it stays red and unchecked
[05:11] <jussi_> how do i log in as root? O_o
[05:11] <ShackJack> Silva: Tried it again?
[05:11] <Davy_Jones> jussi_: type root in the login window?
[05:11] <Silva> yes 3-4 times
[05:12] <scottd> Hey
[05:12] <media> I'm having a problem getting a virtual/aliased network interface up on feisty.  Every version of ubuntu and all other linux distro's worked fine but feisty does not, does anyone know what may have changed in feisty?
[05:12] <jussi_> Davy_Jones: not allowed to log in from the login window
[05:12] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see... but i came to ask.. becouse people who will read it must decide :D
[05:12] <Silva> its the Nvidia accelerate graphics driver
[05:12] <Davy_Jones> Silva: i think that's the one
[05:12] <ShackJack> Silva: You can sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx   then  gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change driver from nv to nvidia and log out and back in again :)
[05:12] <scottd> I am wondering if I am writing a script and want to append to sources.list, can I use cat?
[05:12] <scottd> If so how.
[05:12] <nikin> Davy_Jones: bytheay you are just against automatix, or agains any autoinstalling programs?
[05:13] <Silva> ShackJack: I will try :)
[05:13] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 right after I click on install the screen goes black, any idea ?
[05:13] <TtyS2> jussi_ why not use krusader as root or sudo
[05:13] <Silva> choose safe gfx mode allorder
[05:13] <Davy_Jones> nikin: just automatix
[05:13] <ShackJack> Silva: If you can't log back into gui just reedit xorg.conf and change driver back to nv
[05:13] <jussi_> TtyS2: how do i do that
[05:13] <nikin> Davy_Jones: can i ask why?
[05:13] <Davy_Jones> nikin: if i'm against autoinstalling, i wouldn't be using ubuntu :P
[05:13] <ShackJack> Silva: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf (for text mode editor)
[05:13] <allorder> Silva ok i will try
[05:13] <Silva> ShackJack: No candidate version found for nvidia-glx
[05:13] <Silva> No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: it screws up your system basically, isn't that enough reason
[05:14] <TtyS2> jussi_ sudo can be used in a terminal
[05:14] <ShackJack> nikin: The foreign repos and method Automatix uses can cause dependency problems and problems with upgrades/updates...
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: almost everyone who upgraded from dapper to edgy got their system f'cked up cuz there were using automatix
[05:14] <fruitbatJim> is it possible to download internet explorer for linux?
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: that seems to be the biggest issue there, is upgrading
[05:14] <jussi_> how doi create a new folder the once i am in as root in terminal TtyS2 ?
[05:14] <Ifreeze> with what command can i see when i installed this linux version?
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> nikin: watch what ubotu says
[05:14] <Davy_Jones> !automatix | nikin
[05:14] <ubotu> nikin: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[05:16] <jussi_> TtyS2: aye.. so eg mkdir /lib/audio if i wanna create the folder "audio" in lib?
[05:16] <ShackJack> Silva: Close softare sources first :)
[05:17] <Silva> ShackJack: have done :)

[05:17] <ubotu> gamermichael: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:17] <TtyS2> include sudo, yes, look at man mkdir
[05:18] <gamermichael> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:18] <Silva> allorder: then i dont know, that worked for me :)
[05:18] <gamermichael> wtf
[05:18] <Davy_Jones> gamermichael: yeah
[05:18] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i see, so you are againsforeign repos. coz some soft i nedd is not available on apt, sometimes not even .deb package... and so i should write a script whitch can install it... if i dont want to do some 30 steps on every maschine. :D automatix sux for shure, but i think a lot of people need w32codecs if nothing else
[05:18] <assasukasse> hi everyone i have a problem with networkmanager applet, i connect to an open wifi, and after some hours i lose the connection and it says is wep passworded, of course is not..so i have to reboot the pc in order for it to work..how can i fix that?
[05:18] <gamermichael> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:18] <allorder> I have ati x700 pro
[05:18] <ShackJack> scottd: Something like: echo "deb http://www.getautomatix.com/apt feisty main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:18] <allorder> its suppose to work well ?
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> gamermichael:    "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" no quotes
[05:18] <gamermichael> ohh...ok
[05:18] <gamermichael> lol
[05:18] <bulmer> assasukasse: did you try just /etc/init.d/networking restart  without rebooting?
[05:18] <jussi_> TtyS2: got it. cheers
[05:19] <ShackJack> assasukasse: Don't reboot - that's the Windows Way -- sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart :)
[05:19] <assasukasse> no bulmer i will try next time it does that
[05:19] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i'm sure there are guides for everything.. remember, ubuntu got all shiny and famous cuz of the wealth of documentation you can find
[05:19] <ShackJack> assasukasse: Or what bulmer said ;)
[05:19] <assasukasse> ShackJack: networking restart or dbus
[05:19] <scottd> ShackJack: Sounds good...
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> Davy_Jones: quite true... but it also got all famous cuz it generally works
[05:19] <Silva> can you view running processes in Gnome?
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> and a bazillion dollars behind it helped to.
[05:20] <jussi_> i need to drag and drop something from my desktop to /lib but i dont have the permissions .. what to do?
[05:20] <ShackJack> Silva: Yes, system monitor or top in terminal
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> jussi01: open a terminal  gksudo nautilus
[05:20] <ShackJack> Silva: There's also a gnome panel applet for system monitor (add to panel)
[05:20] <bulmer> Silva: you can always use  ps -aux
[05:20] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:20] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Is he still here :)
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: :)
[05:20] <nikin> Davy_Jones: yep sometimes, but a lot of people dont ant to do that 30 steps... and i dont want to do it after the fifth installed computer either... so autoinstalling is something of a must if one want to get WIn users to use ubuntu IMHO
[05:20] <Silva> ty I only needed one option, not 3, you guys are too helpful sometimes :p
[05:20] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i'm against anything that doesn't work.. not particularly foreign repos
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: open a terminal, gksudo nautilus
[05:21] <ShackJack> Silva: More than one way to skin a cat -- if you want GUI way sysmon is good but uses more resources...
[05:21] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i got foreign repos myself, but for very minimal stuff
[05:21] <Silva> ShackJack: Yeah but its pretty :)
[05:21] <jussi_> i just love ubuntu support :)
[05:21] <jussi_> IndyGunFreak: cheerz
[05:21] <Troggie> hello all
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: Did you get nvidia driver in - or still doing updates?
[05:22] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: lol.. no prob
[05:22] <ShackJack> !hi | Troggie
[05:22] <Silva> ShackJack: Still updatin!
[05:22] <blue|palm> Hi, I have instAlled compiz-fusion, but when i run it through berly mAnAger it seems to not loAd emerAld or something... I get no title bArs or window borders etc, And I cAnt rotAte the cube At All
[05:22] <Troggie> is Ubuntu 6.10 better then Fedora Core 4?
[05:22] <ubotu> Troggie: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:22] <Troggie> hi ubotu
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: That might be issue with restricted driver mgr... Your card is supported... After you can enable desktop effects if you want or put in compiz fusion!
[05:22] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:22] <Silva> ubotu is a bot ;)
[05:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot ;) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:22] <curare> :D
[05:22] <ShackJack> Silva: Otherwise should should be able to install that package and update xorg.conf as previously described...
[05:23] <Troggie> Silva is Ubuntu 6.10 better the Fedora Core 4?
[05:23] <Stormx2> !best | Troggie
[05:23] <ubotu> Troggie: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:23] <IndyGunFreak> jussi_: just remember, when you get familiar with ubuntu, to come here and contribute to the newbies, about 9mo ago, i didn't even know how to pronounce ubuntu
[05:23] <Silva> Troggie: Dont ask me :)
[05:23] <Troggie> who can i ask
[05:23] <Stormx2> Troggie: Substitute "application" for "operating system"
[05:23] <Silva> an expert
[05:23] <Stormx2> Troggie: It depends fully on what you're trying to do, your hardware, etc etc etc.
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: better is an extremely subjective term
[05:23] <Troggie> well i want to host a IRCd
[05:23] <ShackJack> Troggie: You have no criteria on which to judge upon - Ubuntu is likely easier and better supported... And I like using latest stable version - 7.04 - lots of improvements...
[05:23] <Silva> Yes the question does seem subjective :)
[05:24] <Stormx2> Troggie: What kind of connection are you on?
[05:24] <Troggie> DSL
[05:24] <nikin> Davy_Jones: Linux has a long way to go to drop propertary formats, and ot supporting things like mp3 out of the box is a serous bad point for the average home user. thats all.
[05:24] <Ghismo> guys is there any kind of line command in "apt" style to recompile a package?
[05:24] <westguy> I am new to Ubuntu
[05:24] <IndyGunFreak> Troggie: ubuntu 6.10 is going to be more up to date than FC4
[05:24] <Stormx2> Troggie: Unless you're expecting a bunch of traffic, go with Ubuntu Server.
[05:24] <Stormx2> IndyGunFreak: FC5 is out, methinks. Maybe more.
[05:24] <Troggie> is there a firewall on Ubuntu ?
[05:24] <ericmoogle> FC7 is out
[05:24] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: actually, fedora  7 was just released
[05:24] <Stormx2> Ghismo: reinstall, you mean?
[05:25] <nikin> Troggie: yep.
[05:25] <Stormx2> IndyGunFreak: Hah! I'm so behind the times!
[05:25] <Kragnerac> Fedora Core 7 is the current version. :)
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: hav eyou saw that awesome movie, Back to the Future?..lol
[05:25] <IanLiu> Hello. My CD-ROM doesn't stop reading, even if I am not accessing it. Any tips why?
[05:25] <Troggie> will Webmin work on it?
[05:25] <Ghismo> i mean a recompiling
[05:25] <westguy> can someone tell me why when installation of Version 7.04 no root password is set
[05:25] <nikin> Troggie: yep i use it with shorewall and works fine
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: in my opinion, ubuntu packages aren't thoroughly tested like fedora packages.. like anyone can release an ubuntu package in 1 day and night.. but in fedora, packages take about a week of testing.. but ubuntu is better for many things
[05:25] <Troggie> so its better for IRCd server the FC4
[05:25] <Stormx2> !root | westguy
[05:25] <ubotu> westguy: 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
[05:25] <Davy_Jones> Troggie: again, that's my opinion
[05:25] <flaviocpontes> westguy: Because we use sudo to do administrative stuff, so no passwd is needed
[05:25] <Ghismo> for example
[05:26] <Stormx2> Uhg.
[05:26] <Ghismo> if i wanted recompile openoffice
[05:26] <ShackJack> !iptables | Troggie
[05:26] <ubotu> Troggie: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:26] <Stormx2> Stupid in-jokes.
[05:26] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: why on earth would you want to do that?
[05:26] <allorder> I just booted ubuntu 7.04 when I click on install or safe graph mode the screen goes black on ati x700 pro , someone can help pls?
[05:26] <Ghismo> to make it faster
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i agree with your last statement.. well, there is Linux Mint
[05:26] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Well, you can uninstall it then compile it?
[05:26] <Troggie> ah ic thank u so much guys
[05:26] <Troggie> thank u cheers
[05:26] <else> how can i fix my locales? they're broken: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[05:26] <Ghismo> u mean managing a tarball
[05:26] <Ghismo> ?
[05:26] <Davy_Jones> nikin: and proprietary formats are not as hard to install after 7.04 came out
[05:26] <westguy> but without root password I cannot install java, I am new to linux
[05:26] <IndyGunFreak> i bet it would take forever to compile open office.
[05:27] <ShackJack> allorder: Not sure on that but you might have better luck with alt. install cd (text-mode)
[05:27] <Stormx2> Ghismo: *sigh* please make sense.
[05:27] <flaviocpontes> westguy Yes you can
[05:27] <Ghismo> :-) sorry u're right
[05:27] <flaviocpontes> westguy use sudo and YOUR passwd
[05:27] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Open synaptic, remove all instances of "openoffice", then go to openoffice.org, download the source, and compile it according to the INSTALL file.
[05:27] <nikin> Davy_Jones: thats true... but i think it should be out of the box, or if not else and icon on the Desktop :D
[05:27] <Ghismo> ok
[05:27] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: i don't think the "new" version of OO is gonna be any faster than the one you have
[05:27] <allorder> ShackJack: how ?
[05:27] <ShackJack> !alternate | allorder
[05:27] <ubotu> allorder: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[05:27] <Stormx2> westguy: You being new doesn't stop you from reading the page ubotu linked you to.
[05:28] <Ghismo> oh...ok ;-)
[05:28] <ericmoogle> Can anybody walk me through how to get Ubuntu to recognize my CD drive?
[05:28] <alesan> hi
[05:28] <westguy> ok thank you. will try again. I am using version 7.04 on my powermac G4
[05:28] <Davy_Jones> nikin: you want people to go to jail for you? :P
[05:28] <ShackJack> allorder: Weird that you can boot into it - and *then* in goes black after clickinig install..
[05:28] <ShackJack> !hi | ales
[05:28] <Stormx2> Ghismo: Incase you don't want to scroll up: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:28] <ubotu> ales: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:28] <ShackJack> !hi  | alesan
[05:28] <ubotu> alesan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:28] <allorder> in safe mode 1
[05:28] <allorder> in safe mode 2
[05:28] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: It should be recognized already
[05:28] <alesan> what if I want to test the next release of ubuntu, we are developing a device and we should make sure everything works.
[05:28] <nikin> Davy_Jones: nope... but here in my country the la protects the users in things like mp3 or DVD
[05:29] <Davy_Jones> nikin: i think they can't include it out of the box because it might not be legal
[05:29] <Ghismo> thanks !
[05:29] <Libila> if I changed the nice value of Xorg would it make it so my mouse movement wasn't so jerky under higher load
[05:29] <Stormx2> !gutsy | alesan
[05:29] <ubotu> alesan: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <Libila> Not sure which process that would be
[05:29] <Davy_Jones> nikin: yeah, it's different from country to country
[05:29] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle is it an IDE, SCSI or USB?
[05:29] <Silva> !wireless
[05:29] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:29] <ShackJack> alesan: Upgrade to Gutsy :)  sudo update-manager -d or get ISP
[05:29] <ShackJack> *ISO
[05:29] <Stormx2> Libila: Pretty sure it's hard to avoid...
[05:30] <Davy_Jones> gotta go.. bb
[05:30] <ShackJack> Later Davy_Jones
[05:30] <Stormx2> Davy Jones? Isn't that a character from Pirates Of The Caribbean? Sucks to be you ;D
[05:30] <ericmoogle> Faliocpontes: The drive is an IDE drive.
[05:30] <westguy> I not sure what to do when I type sudo in terminal
[05:30] <westguy> my user name is roy
[05:31] <Stormx2> westguy: Please read the page.
[05:31] <Ghismo> one last thing...i need of a good java IDE
[05:31] <Stormx2> It explains everything fully...
[05:31] <nikin> Davy_Jones: i ame just waiting the time till i can get my hands on a phone hat can play ogg like the one now can play mp3, then i will convert all my music , rougly 80Gb, most of it is legal:D realy :D so i will convert for a week, and then it will not bother me.
[05:31] <westguy> okok thanks
[05:31] <Ghismo> is there any open version
[05:31] <Ghismo> ?
[05:31] <Nullset> I have a problem using pppoe
[05:31] <neighborlee> Ghismo, eclipse is what you prob. want ;)..googling will find it.
[05:31] <ShackJack> Stormx2: Also the lead singer of "The Monkees"
[05:31] <Nullset> You see if i keep my connection as ppp
[05:31] <Stormx2> Ooh.
[05:31] <Nullset> then it works fine
[05:31] <Stormx2> Cool!
[05:32] <Ghismo> god bless you !;-)
[05:32] <westguy> can the non server version use for domain control of windows pc?
[05:32] <neighborlee> Ghismo, or just apt-get it
[05:32] <Nullset> but if i try to make a WAN connection or a bridged connection then
[05:32] <Nullset> erm
[05:32] <Nullset> what do i do
[05:32] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I think it is timing out when it is trying to mount my CD drive because when I first boot the computer it just hangs for about 3 minutes before the boot completes.
[05:32] <Nullset> how do i connect ??
[05:32] <neighborlee> Ghismo, though what you get from repo may not be current..
[05:32] <Silva> ShackJack: Ok my updates have finished in the terminal, now the update manager has popped up in Gnome, do I need to run that too?
[05:32] <_imran_> do you need to format a hard drive before you can partition it?
[05:32] <nikin> Til that time i need the propertary stuff... not even all linux programs can handle ogg vorbis and theora... bad..bad :(
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> Ghismo: but usually whats int he repo, is stable.
[05:32] <ShackJack> Silva: might as well :) It'll prolly say all done :)
[05:32] <Nullset> anyone around
[05:32] <ShackJack> Silva: Lots of updates from a new install
[05:32] <ShackJack> !ask | Nullset
[05:32] <ubotu> Nullset: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:33] <kditty> is dewsktop cd the same as live cd?
[05:33] <Stormx2> nikin: Converting your music from one lossy format to another will lose you a significant amount of quality.
[05:33] <ShackJack> kditty: Yep...
[05:33] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Is there a CD inside?
[05:33] <kditty> thanks
[05:33] <Silva> ShackJack: well its downloading so guess I have some more to do
[05:33] <Nullset> Shackjack : i asked already
[05:33] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: Nope, no cd inside of it!
[05:33] <Nullset> no one replied so i asked if anyone was listening
[05:33] <Nullset> lol
[05:33] <Nullset> nevermind
[05:33] <flaviocpontes> so its not a mount problem
[05:33] <ShackJack> Nullset: You can always ask again...
[05:34] <Nullset> When i use ppp connection the internet works fine
[05:34] <Nullset> but i want to use a bridged connection
[05:34] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Can you send me your /var/log/syslog ?
[05:34] <Nullset> how do i do it
[05:34] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I actually get the splash screen with the progress bar, but it just sits there forever before the bar starts moving. Then when it finally boots I have no Cd drive
[05:34] <Stormx2> !enter | Nullset
[05:34] <ubotu> Nullset: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:34] <westguy> ubuntu is really nice and easy to use.:P
[05:34] <Nullset> aah, okay
[05:34] <nikin> Stormx2: i ame sure i can do it. playing with bitrates and all... and if not else i have a shelf of aoudio CD-s wich i can reGrab, but thats some time :D~
[05:34] <_imran_> do you need to format a hard drive before you can partition it?
[05:34] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: try disconnecting the CD and see if the boot process speeds up
[05:35] <bulmer> _imran_: yes, if its not in the correct format
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle then come back Ill hang around a little more
[05:35] <_imran_> ok
[05:35] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: Ok, do you want the syslog?
[05:35] <Nullset> anybody with any ideas :p
[05:35] <_imran_> bulmer, what format would that eb?
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> yes, anyway
[05:35] <nikin> _imran_: no partitioning is on a lower level... so you can just delete partitions and ake ne ones no formatting is reqd
[05:35] <_imran_> *be
[05:35] <bulmer> _imran_: for which file system you want
[05:35] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: yes, send it to me
[05:36] <Stormx2> nikin: i wasn't doubting you can do it. I was just saying that ANY lossy -> lossy conversion (whether it remains on the same format, same bitrate, whatever) will sound awful.
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: ok
[05:36] <Nullset> There used to be a utility called pppoeconfig, does it still exist ??. I used pppconfig but it asks me to dial a number erm when there is no number.
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: there you go
[05:36] <_imran_> bulmer, i want to partition my friends hd, to dual boot and run Ubuntu
[05:36] <nikin> Stormx2: i have diferent experiences but it depends on my ears i think....
[05:36] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I send the upload request
[05:36] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle not here.
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: how do i send it to you?
[05:37] <Stormx2> nikin: meh, whatever. I'm no audiophile but I can immediately spot a transcoded music file.
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes: I'm using Xchat
[05:37] <nikin> Stormx2: i cant... thats why i dont use FLAC
[05:37] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: did you get my private msg?
[05:37] <ericmoogle> Flaviocpontes:oooo did not even see it.
[05:37] <Silva> shackjack: restarting brb
[05:37] <Stormx2> I sometimes use flac. mostly I use V0. Even 128kbps it a bunch better than a trancode!
[05:38] <ShackJack> _imran_: You don't need to reformat - but on windows side clean out as much as you can and checkdisk/defrag... installer will take care of new partitions and formatting
[05:38] <pussfeller> is GLIB dev files libglib2.0-dev ?
[05:38] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: its strange. Maybe its the firewall. dunno. anywway, just unplug the CD and try to boot without it. If its the cultrip the boot should speed up considerably
[05:39] <_imran_> ShackJack, thanx :)
[05:39] <Stormx2> pussfeller: if you're using glib2.0, yeah
[05:39] <bulmer> _imran_: well you can have 3 partitions, maybe even 4,  allocate some for windows, linux, swap, and /home
[05:39] <Stormx2> Here here!
[05:39] <pussfeller> Stormx2: im compiling and it says I need glib dev library
[05:39] <ShackJack> _imran_: Be careful on the partioning thing... You'll want to do manually and ideally have partiion for swap / (root) and /home ...
[05:39] <pussfeller> Stormx2: its for gnucash
[05:39] <vanberge> anybody use dvd::rip ?
[05:39] <Stormx2> pussfeller: First do: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:39] <nikin> Stormx2: but anyway thanx to point me out that... i will do some tests on several files from diferent style of music to see ho it worx :D
[05:40] <Pretor1ab> hello all
[05:40] <pussfeller> Stormx2: i did that already
[05:40] <Stormx2> pussfeller: gnucash is in the repos.
[05:40] <ShackJack> _imran_: See here for more info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition?highlight=%28partition%29
[05:40] <blue|palm> http://pastebin.com/mc2e2d41 is the error when i launch compiz --replace. any ideas?
[05:40] <pussfeller> Stormx2: an old version
[05:40] <Pretor1ab> can anyone help me to figure out how to download the files from here please : http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk/ZimbraSync4j/
[05:40] <Pretor1ab> i presume it uses svn or cvs ?
[05:40] <Stormx2> pussfeller: Thought so. okay, go ahead with the package you mentioned.
[05:41] <Silva> ShackJack: Now we are getting somewhere, Restricted drivers is downloading an update
[05:41] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Do you want me to disconnect my drive and restart and see what happens?
[05:41] <pussfeller> Stormx2: thanks
[05:41] <ShackJack> Pretor1ab: see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion?action=show&redirect=SVN   (acces methods)
[05:41] <vanberge> in dvd::rip - anyone know how to make 1 video file vs. a file for every chapter??
[05:41] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: sudo apt-get install subversion && mkdir zimbra-xtras && svn co svn http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk/ zimbra-xtras
[05:41] <ShackJack> Silva: Sweet!!! Gonna enable desktop effects after?
[05:41] <Silva> ShackJack: tell me how and I will :)
[05:42] <Nullset> i found it, yay!!!, its pppoeconf
[05:42] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, thanks mate
[05:42] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Yes. Shutdown, disconnect the drive and restart
[05:42] <Silva> ShackJack: need another reboot brb
[05:42] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle and see what happens
[05:42] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: ShackJack's advice is probably better.
[05:42] <ericmoogle> OK, BRB
[05:42] <ericmoogle> quit
[05:42] <ShackJack> Stormx2: Nah... you got it :)
[05:42] <Nullset> Shackjack : do you anything about pppoeconf
[05:42] <Ifreeze> is c language build in ubuntu? can i get it with apt-get?
[05:42] <Nullset> Like after i run that thing, How can i start it
[05:43] <Stormx2> !buildessential | Ifreeze
[05:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about buildessential - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:43] <Nullset> Ifreeze : download gcc with synaptic
[05:43] <Stormx2> !build-essential | Ifreeze
[05:43] <ubotu> Ifreeze: 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!)
[05:43] <ShackJack> Nullset: No, I'm sorry I'm terrible with networking - If it's not under the networking c/p I'm lost - maybe this'll help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE?highlight=%28ppp%29
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: you're pretty quick on the trigger there
[05:43] <Stormx2> I try my best :)
[05:43] <Nullset> thanks Shackjack
[05:43] <curtis_> hello everyone
[05:43] <ShackJack> IndyGunFreak: Stormx2 is a bot :P
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> ShackJack: lol
[05:44] <ShackJack> hi | curtis_
[05:44] <Stormx2> DOES NOT COMPUTE
[05:44] <curtis_>  am wondering how can i listen to WMA files on ubuntu! i tried it in both gxine as well as VLC and even downloaded all the requireed codes.. but the probs stays.. the player plays it but i cant hear anything..
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> !stormx2
[05:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about stormx2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:44] <Stormx2> PLEASE INSERT GIRDER
[05:44] <Stormx2> !w32codecs | curtis_
[05:44] <ubotu> curtis_: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:44] <ShackJack> curtis_: Did you get the gstreamer codecs - try Movie Player ...
[05:44] <curtis_> i downloaded the codecs..
[05:45] <curtis_> w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> i think there's a special codec for wma
[05:45] <cura> hi @ all, how do you mount a NTFS volume so that you have read access without using sudo? i edited fstab with options users, noauto  but that doesn't seem to do the trick
[05:45] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  i looked in the ubuntu forums.. with no luck
[05:45] <yabuk> someone say to me a good video encoder (with grafic mode :)
[05:45] <ShackJack> curtis_: Dunno if this helps? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[05:45] <Nullset> bye bye i come back after configuring pppoe
[05:45] <Anlar> yabuk: avidemux
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: are you using xmms?
[05:46] <ShackJack> yabuk: VNC is pretty good...
[05:46] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  nop! gxine and vlc
[05:46] <Silva> ShackJack: restricted driver is enabled, but I still cant go above 1024 res and 50hz
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: try xmms..
[05:46] <ShackJack> Silva: What resolution do you want?
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> curtis.. here's the command i'm reading..
[05:46] <yabuk> thanks
[05:46] <Silva> 1280 or 1600
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: sudo apt-get install xmms xmms-skins xmms-wma
[05:47] <ericmoogle> Ok, I'm back and have my CD drive disconnected, the computer started up like a champ with it disconnected so I think its definately having problems mounting it.
[05:47] <Stormx2> curtis_: What media player do you use?
[05:47] <Myzrael> Rythmbox is nice :D
[05:47] <Silva> and a better frequency
[05:47] <BetaTester> Hi all. I was wondering if someone is having an intel dualcore Ubuntu PC without ECC with uptime more than 7 days?
[05:47] <curtis_> Stormx2:  both gxine as well as VLC
[05:47] <ShackJack> Silva: What is native resolution of your monitor (LCD)
[05:47] <Silva> no 21" crt
[05:47] <Stormx2> curtis_: I don't mean to patronise - are you sure you have w32codecs installed? Check under synaptic.
[05:48] <curtis_> Stormx2:  i just did
[05:48] <Silva> ShackJack: not sure on native res?
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: stop patronizing. ;)
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: try that command i listed above.
[05:48] <curtis_> w32codecs_20061022-0.0_i386
[05:48] <ConfidentiaL> how do I remove gnome if I installed ubuntu?
[05:48] <ShackJack> Silva: You can dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org or  gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf and manually add desired resolutions (no native res on CRTs)
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> but it does appear to be a codec issue
[05:48] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  i dislike xmms!
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: ok..
[05:48] <Myzrael> curtis_, me to
[05:49] <Myzrael> Looks like winamp
[05:49] <aricz> oh noes, looks like winamp
[05:49] <Silva> ShackJack: ok so 1024 is the normal max on vanilla gnome?
[05:49] <Myzrael> rythmbox is cool
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> i hate xmms to for the record, its just it appears xmms has a wma plugin.
[05:49] <Myzrael> quick searching trough albums
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: what about audacious?
[05:49] <ShackJack> Silva: No - sometimes it just has trouble detecting all available resoultions...
[05:49] <Silva> ok
[05:49] <Myzrael> rythmbox uses Gstreamer so should run wma as well
[05:49] <Stormx2> I used to use audacious
[05:49] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  audacious?! whts tht..
[05:49] <Myzrael> just install the wmc codec
[05:49] <Stormx2> I use MPD and Sonata now.
[05:49] <curtis_> ShackJack:  i tried ur advice didnt work either:)
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: cosmetically similar to xmms, but works better IMO
[05:50] <curtis_> well where can i get th wma codec!
[05:50] <biosword> ciao per andare nel canale debian.it
[05:50] <Eversun> how to configure modem router isp?
[05:50] <biosword> ?
[05:50] <ShackJack> curtis_: Eh? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs  - that should do it (?)
[05:50] <Nutubuntu> !it
[05:50] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:50] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: I unplugged it
[05:50] <Myzrael> indeed ShackJack
[05:50] <curtis_> ShackJack:  i did... and same thing:) didnt work
[05:50] <logreeval> Has anyone here used a HP dv6000 series laptop with ubuntu?
[05:50] <Myzrael> but movie player in gnome automaticly downloads the codecs for you
[05:50] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Computer booted very fast with no hangs.
[05:51] <curtis_> Myzrael: its supposed to..
[05:51] <ShackJack> curtis_: You sure you have win32codecs installed ?
[05:51] <Myzrael> some wma files just don't work though
[05:51] <Eversun> hello what is the alternative dreamweavercs3 for ubuntu?
[05:51] <Myzrael> linux limitation
[05:51] <Silva> ShackJack: Package `xserver-org' is not installed and no info is available
[05:51] <Myzrael> (well.......microsoft limitation ofcourse)
[05:51] <Stormx2> Eversun: Making decent websites? ;-)
[05:51] <curtis_> ShackJack:  yes
[05:51] <ShackJack> Myzrael: I've never had an issue with WMA - most of my 10,00 song collection is WMA :)
[05:51] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: we got the cultrip
[05:51] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, I cant figure this out
[05:51] <Myzrael> WMA protected
[05:51] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Cool
[05:51] <Eversun> Stormx2: yeah dude...
[05:52] <Nullset> back, its working now.... thank you guys!!!
[05:52] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Any chance you can get a replacement?
[05:52] <curtis_> well is there a way to convert it to mp3 for example!
[05:52] <ShackJack> Silva: ah... it's something else them... comfortable with adding to xorg.conf by hand?
[05:52] <Eversun> Stormx2: license of dreamweavercs3 cant afford
[05:52] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: wait. Is it IDE?
[05:52] <Nullset> hrm, i installed my ubuntu with the live cd. Is it okay ??
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: there's lots of ways, google
[05:52] <Silva> ShackJack: Sounds relatively painless, sure :)
[05:52] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Well i know it works, because I just switched from Kubuntu to Ubuntu and it worked just fine in Kubuntu
[05:52] <Stormx2> Eversun: nvu is a WYSIWYG editor. sudo apt-get install nvu. You should consider hand-coding though. Your websites will be faster, cleaner, more compliant, more browser-compatible and ready for future browsers.
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> Nullset: why wouldn't it be?
[05:52] <Myzrael> Nullset, that's the normal way to do it.
[05:52] <Pretor1ab> I get a 301 moved
[05:52] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  most of the results are windows based...
[05:52] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: I think its having a mounting problem of some sort
[05:52] <ShackJack> Silva: Go for it - just add desired reses at bottom where res are listed...
[05:52] <Nullset> or should i install my ubuntu using some other cd
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: because DRM is a windows issue.
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> i'm not aware of a linux crack, because most linux apps don't read it.
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: strange. did you upgrade?
[05:53] <Silva> ShackJack: ok using this? gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:53] <Myzrael> Nullset : No just plug the live CD in and install it.
[05:53] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep.... Be carefull in there :)
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle pr did a clean install
[05:53] <deathnall> hi guys i need some help if poss
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: is this a song, or something by a favorite artist?
[05:53] <Myzrael> And be sure to read everything well
[05:53] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Nope both versions were fiesty fawn, but I did not like WPA support in KDE.
[05:53] <Stormx2> Silva: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg you mean :)
[05:53] <Silva> ShackJack: nothing happens when i do it
[05:53] <deathnall> its to do with swscanner
[05:53] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  ya it is
[05:53] <Silva> ah ok :)
[05:53] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Yes, clean format and install
[05:53] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle: Which model is you drive?
[05:53] <ShackJack> Silva: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: uh, why don't you just install limewire or frostwire, get on it, and download it in mp3 format
[05:54] <deathnall> whenever i click start scan
[05:54] <ShackJack> Silva: gksu ....
[05:54] <_tobias> hi, when my sytem is idle i can hear regular, constant hd-accesses, which are very anoying. any idea how i might find out which process is causing them?
[05:54] <Nullset> Myzrael : I already installed it.
[05:54] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Ummmm TDK.......I might have to rip it out for the model
[05:54] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  cos its my gf who recorded it.. so i doubt its going to b online :P
[05:54] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle no need
[05:54] <deathnall> it says siocsiwmode 95: operation not supported
[05:54] <Myzrael> Nullset , then you're set ;)
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> curtis_: so its not by a famous artist, its by your gf.
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[05:54] <curtis_> IndyGunFreak:  exactly
[05:54] <deathnall> and after i click ok it says interface doesnt support scanning
[05:55] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: TDK Model: AI-CDRW401248B
[05:55] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle. Well, we know its the drive. Now we must determine if its your drive or a realted problem
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> well, short of that command i told you for xmms i don't know.
[05:55] <Silva> ShackJack: do i edit all the lines with res's on?
[05:55] <Nullset> Myzarael : Are there any post install guides for dapper drake
[05:55] <Myzrael> why would you like drapper?
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> For all of you iPod fans out there the best app for it (besides iTunes) has to be songbirsd
[05:55] <ShackJack> Silva: Just the one where the Depth matches Default depth, but you might as well do all...
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> songbird*
[05:55] <Nullset> Its stable
[05:55] <Beyond_The_Grave> This app is the shiot!
[05:55] <Silva> ShackJack: there are 6 subsections
[05:55] <Nullset> its dapper or drapper, dunno but it has LTS
[05:55] <Myzrael> Feisty is fine
[05:56] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle Try to reatach it and check if the cable is well connected, if the Master/Slave/CS jumper is in the right place. thngs like that. If nothing works, try installing another CD drive to see if yours i broken.
[05:56] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep... copy paste "1600xBlah" "1280xblah"
[05:56] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Ok, I will give it a try
[05:56] <curtis_> is there a way to rip music off a cd! ill try burn them as an audio cd.. and then rip them again
[05:56] <curtis_> to linux directly
[05:56] <deathnall>  hi guys i need some help if poss. its to do with swscanner  whenever i click start scan  it says siocsiwmode 95: operation not supported and after i click ok it says interface doesnt support scanning
[05:56] <curtis_> would gxine or vlc b able to do so ?
[05:56] <Silva> ShackJack: so this "1024x768"	"800x600"	"640x480" to this "1280x960"	"1024x768"	"800x600"	"640x480"
[05:56] <ShackJack> curtis_: Yep - or sound juicer
[05:56] <flaviocpontes> ericmoogle Good luck.  I must leave now.  See ya
[05:56] <curtis_> ShackJack: ok thank you :)
[05:56] <Nullset> Are there any post install guides like there were for breezy with all the things like installing softwares and changing repostries thinggy
[05:56] <kraut> moin
[05:57] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep - feel free to add higher rezs to... Make highest ones first..
[05:57] <curtis_> ShackJack:  one more question! is there a command to clean up linux! like from temp internet files and none used downloaded files and so on!
[05:57] <bulmer> deathnall: what does that swcanner do?
[05:57] <deathnall> scans for wireless
[05:57] <ShackJack> curtis_: Not one line, no - a variety of stuff...
[05:57] <Silva> ShackJack: ok what about refreshes? can i change these: Horizsync	28-51  Vertrefresh	43-60
[05:57] <dr_willis> curtis_,   honestly - its not as big a dell as that is  under windows
[05:57] <bulmer> deathnall: scan for wireless AP?
[05:57] <ShackJack> Silva: I'd focus on getting resolution to work first :)
[05:57] <deathnall> yes
[05:57] <deathnall> ap
[05:58] <curtis_> dr_willis:  oh ok then :) ill leave em b..
[05:58] <curtis_> thanks you all for helping out :)
[05:58] <Silva> ok :)
[05:58] <curtis_> i appreciate it
[05:58] <bulmer> deathnall respond with prefixed nick so your responses cant be missed
[05:58] <Silva> ShackJack: do i need to reboot?
[05:58] <dr_willis> curtis_,  all user stuff is in their home dirs.. let them clean out what they want. Theres firefox extensions to help clear the cache, and system wide, the apt system has a tool to clean out the downloads. but other then that..  /tmp i think gets cleaned on boot. (not sure)
[05:58] <ShackJack> Silva: CTRL-ALT-Backspace to restart X and log back in and select resolution (hopefully)
[05:58] <deathnall> sorry im new to linux
[05:58] <wanq> UVAVU!

[06:01] <Myzrael> I run compiz-fusion here

[06:01] <bill> hello
[06:01] <deathnall> hey guys. thnx but im just gona stop bieng a pain and read the link i got sent and learn myself
[06:01] <Stormx2> wanq: I suggest you be quiet.
[06:01] <saltaren> Thanks
[06:01] <ShackJack> !hi | bill
[06:01] <ubotu> bill: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:01] <deathnall> its the best way of doing it i thikn
[06:01] <deathnall> thnx all
[06:02] <Silva> ShackJack: ah is this the same as beryl?
[06:02] <else> !hi | else
[06:02] <Myzrael> Silva , almost. It's compiz and beryl together.
[06:02] <Myzrael> Beryl is dead now.
[06:02] <ShackJack> Silva: It's the remerge of beryl back into compiz - beter new stuff... I turn off desktop effects before trying to install...
[06:02] <deathnall> acutally its pointless
[06:02] <Myzrael> Compiz Fusion is the next step :)
[06:02] <deathnall> who sent me the link?
[06:02] <bill> hello
[06:02] <deathnall> it just tells me about wireless cards
[06:02] <juwenfei> hi
[06:02] <Silva> ah ok :)
[06:02] <deathnall> not me running a programme as root
[06:02] <ShackJack> deathnall: There's a troubleshooting guide there - scroll down...
[06:03] <deathnall> shack jack thnx will take a look
[06:03] <ericmoogle> flaviocpontes: Well I reconnected it and it booted up nice and fast, there was no hang this time so maybe the cable was loose? But I still cannot see my drive when I go to some type of CD-burning application
[06:03] <ShackJack> !hi | juwenfei
[06:03] <ubotu> juwenfei: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:03] <Silva> ShackJack: think ill stick with the vanilla gnome while i set things up, thanks for all your help
[06:03] <ShackJack> Silva: Yep - enjoy!
[06:03] <bill> i need help with the beryl
[06:03] <deathnall> shack
[06:03] <deathnall> im not wireless
[06:03] <juwenfei> I've got a problem... I cannot play videos, all formats. I installed totem and corresponding codecs, but when i open a file,  the totem closes automatically . any suggestions?
[06:03] <deathnall> i just want to run the swscanner
[06:03] <bill> i can not run the beryl manager
[06:03] <deathnall> to scan for them
[06:03] <ShackJack> bill - check out #beryl or #ubuntu-effects but Compiz Fusion is the way forward https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion?highlight=%28fusion%29
[06:03] <bulmer> deathnall: you can as root...  iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:04] <bill> ok
[06:04] <Myzrael> juwenfei, Try a different video player
[06:04] <deathnall> ok cool thnx bulmer
[06:04] <Myzrael> try VLC
[06:04] <Myzrael> that should play everything
[06:04] <deathnall> ok sill question but how do i run root?
[06:04] <Myzrael> sudo commandhere
[06:04] <Nutubuntu> !root
[06:04] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:04] <py_geek> All- Hey, i'm having a problem with my wireless connection... Somehow the network connection thing that lets you choose which network you want has gone away. I've tried "add to panel" thing, but i couldn't find the same application I had before....
[06:04] <deathnall> ummm
[06:04] <whonicca> any way to remote assist someone ubuntu to windows?
[06:04] <juwenfei> thank you all.
[06:05] <Myzrael> you can change the rootpasswd in ubuntu though
[06:05] <Myzrael> sudo passwd root
[06:05] <deathnall> ok guys
[06:05] <deathnall> i just want to run root
[06:05] <Myzrael> But you will never need it
[06:05] <deathnall> how do i do it?
[06:05] <Myzrael> not as a noob
[06:05] <Myzrael> so never do that
[06:05] <Silva> Are the Ralink rt2x00 drivers ok to use in Ubuntu? (for a linksys usb wireless card)
[06:05] <Stormx2> whonicca: VNC?
[06:05] <juwenfei> Myzrael , I tried mplayer and XMMS, no use...
[06:05] <deathnall> if u dont tkae risks
[06:05] <Myzrael> just run sudo andthentypethecommand here
[06:05] <deathnall> so i cant run root?
[06:05] <ShackJack> py_geek: Network Monitor ?
[06:05] <Myzrael> So you want to run apt-get as root just run sudo apt-get
[06:05] <cura> sudo -s
[06:05] <Myzrael> you can run root but it's pointless
[06:05] <Stormx2> me sighs
[06:06] <Stormx2> !sudo
[06:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:06] <py_geek> shackJack: yup
[06:06] <Stormx2> Everyone who doesn't understand it, read that page.
[06:06] <ShackJack> py_geek: nm-applet from command line... add to session startup programs..
[06:06] <Myzrael> There is a reason in ubuntu that root is not the default way
[06:06] <deathnall> so its pointl;ess running root for wsscanner
[06:06] <Myzrael> so just sudo
[06:06] <bobsomebody> what is the command to add a module in apache on ubuntu server?
[06:06] <bobsomebody> a2enmod or something like that?
[06:06] <Stormx2> Myzrael: Listen, I don't like repeating myself. READ that page.
[06:06] <whonicca> Stormx2,  do i need to know the persons username and password? or can he invite me to control his desktop or something to that nature
[06:06] <ShackJack> py_geek: actually --- /usr/bin/nm-applet --sm-disable
[06:07] <Myzrael> Stormx2 it was not my question
[06:07] <Myzrael> I know how to run as root or how to sudo etc
[06:07] <Stormx2> whonicca: Depends on his settings. Windows actually uses a different protocol for Remote Assistance. Give me a few minutes.
[06:07] <Myzrael> ;)
[06:07] <Stormx2> Oh.
[06:07] <whonicca> Stormx2, thankyou
[06:07] <Stormx2> Hah.
[06:07] <MreX>  i've made a script in /etc/init.d which is supposed to run some other script. then ran update-rc.d myscript defaults, and checked the rc.X links. Everything is executable, but on boot, the script is not run - why?
[06:07] <killruana> Hello
[06:07] <bobsomebody> nm i got it
[06:07] <Stormx2> I'm kinda tired Myzrael. In my mind, the "There is" was "Is there"
[06:07] <ShackJack> !hi | killruana
[06:07] <deathnall> ok all i got was this
[06:07] <deathnall> deathnall@deathnall-desktop:~$ iwlist wlan0 scan
[06:07] <ubotu> killruana: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:07] <deathnall> wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning.
[06:07] <Stormx2> Myzrael: Many apologies.
[06:07] <Myzrael> Only once did I need to know the actual root passwd so I changed it.
[06:07] <Myzrael> hehe np
[06:08] <MreX> the /etc/init.d/myscript is #!/bin/sh [newline]  /home/myuser/scriptToRun
[06:08] <westguy> I have read the link on sudo, but to a non command train user is not easy
[06:08] <killruana> Please, do you test my web server ? http://s1.darkpirates.fr/c.php?uid=31326
[06:08] <westguy> can someone help
[06:08] <CommanderCool> my external ntfs drive wont mount, i'm supposed to use 'force' option, help plz
[06:08] <Myzrael> I like the fact that root is not used in ubuntu normally :) sudo is fine
[06:08] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:08] <bulmer> westguy you have to persevere..be a bit patient to learn
[06:08] <deathnall> ok can i guess on the common word used "root". its like admin for windows?
[06:08] <ShackJack> westguy: It's just sudo commandname options     ..in a terminal :)
[06:08] <westguy> can you help me Myzrael
[06:08] <Myzrael> westguy , it's easy you just type sudo nameoftheprogramorthingyouwanttodohere and that's it
[06:08] <Stormx2> westguy: Okay, here's the jist. When you want to run something as root, you put "sudo" before the command.
[06:08] <cura> CommanderCool: mount is a command you have to run as "root", sudo
[06:09] <deathnall> ahh ok lets see
[06:09] <Stormx2> westguy: if what you are running is a graphical application, you use "gksudo"
[06:09] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:09] <Myzrael> So let's say you want to run apt-get as root. You type sudo apt-get
[06:09] <CommanderCool> cura: that's all right
[06:09] <Myzrael> then you will be asked for your passwd and that's it
[06:09] <westguy> I am trying to install sun java
[06:09] <py_geek> shackjack: i'm sorry, im still getting the hang of the terminal, what do I type?
[06:09] <Stormx2> !java | westguy
[06:09] <ubotu> westguy: 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
[06:10] <ShackJack> py_geek: Not terminal -- add to session starup programs -- Preferences -> Sessions -- (check to see its not there already)
[06:10] <Myzrael> !root
[06:10] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:10] <westguy> blur
[06:10] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Run this: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Enter YOUR password when prompted.
[06:10] <mahrellon> Hi, I'll try to make this my last question instead of pestering you guys every day lol. I want to install Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu but want to keep most of my settings. What folders should I copy to my external HD if I want to achieve that?
[06:10] <Myzrael> he could better use Synaptic
[06:10] <westguy> stormx2 I just type that...?
[06:10] <Myzrael> easier for a noob most of the times
[06:10] <Stormx2> mahrellon: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:10] <CommanderCool> help plz! my external ntfs drive cannot be mounted
[06:10] <deathnall> ok so i tried this command sudo iwlist scanning and it just keeps saying interface doesnt support scanning. wtf am i doing wrong lol
[06:10] <Stormx2> westguy: Into terminal, yes.
[06:11] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config && sudo ntfsconfig
[06:11] <mahrellon> Stormx2: Thanks but it still doesn't look the same as the real Xubuntu dist :(
[06:11] <mpiric> firefox?
[06:11] <Stormx2> mahrellon: yeah, it does o.O
[06:11] <Romnous> is there a way to synchronize a folder on a linux system with one on a windows computer in the network??
[06:11] <Lunar_Lamp> I have an unusual problem.  Here is my xorg.conf set up for dual monitor (working perfectly) - however, I'm not sure how to edit it to go back to single monitor.  http://paste.stgraber.org/2274
[06:11] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: i did that
[06:11] <Stormx2> mahrellon: it's exactly the same settings / packages. Why wouldn't it?
[06:11] <ShackJack> mahrellon: You have to select Xubunu from sessions when loggin in...
[06:11] <py_geek> shackjack: where's the location of network monitor, or where should it be around?
[06:11] <deathnall> ok guys is there anywhere i can get help for my problem please?
[06:11] <westguy> Stormx2 : use my account password write?
[06:11] <ericmoogle> Hmmmm I think flaviocpontes left, can anybody help me where he left off with my CD drive problem?
[06:11] <Stormx2> deathnall: Here? ubuntuforums.org ?
[06:12] <mahrellon> Stormx2: It does? Then I'll give it a try again. It could be me installing just some packages through Synaptics or something...I had a fever at the time lol -_-
[06:12] <Stormx2> westguy: Right.
[06:12] <deathnall> thnx storm
[06:12] <ShackJack> py_geek: It's where I said before... try running in terminal first... but you want to add to session startup progs if not htere alreayd to start automatically....
[06:12] <westguy> can tell me what that command is doing?
[06:12] <mahrellon> ShackJack; Stormx2: Thanks you guys. I'll try it =)
[06:12] <ShackJack> westguy: installing java...
[06:12] <Myzrael> sudo (gives you root priviliges) apt-get (runs apt-get) install (tells apt-get to install) and then the name of the package

[06:16] <Romnous> or to synchronize folders between a linux computer and a windows computer in a network?
[06:17] <mahrellon> It's working
[06:17] <mahrellon> Is it safe to uninstall Gnome now? (Like sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop or something?)
[06:17] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: Did you run through ntfs-config and configure your NTFS partition to be mounted?
[06:17] <ShackJack> Romnous: there's rsync ;)
[06:17] <Stormx2> mahrellon: That probably wouldn't do it.
[06:17] <Romnous> that's a terminal command right?
[06:17] <westguy> Stormx2 after installing do I need to save it?

[06:17] <bulmer> Romnous: not that i know of...is it just for storage not for execution right?
[06:17] <Stormx2> westguy: Save what?
[06:18] <ShackJack> mahrellon: Not sure if it's ubuntu-desktop to uninstall...
[06:18] <mahrellon> Stormx2: Ah, well I'll google it then. I don't wanna bother you guys to much :P. Thx for everything so far :)
[06:18] <westguy> the java installation I just did
[06:18] <Romnous> i want to make a /desktop/ folder synchronize with a folder on the linux server

[06:18] <mahrellon> ShackJack: And you too m8. Thanks =)
[06:18] <ShackJack> mahrellon: Yep np
[06:18] <mahrellon> =)
[06:18] <bulmer> Romnous: define what do you mean by synchronize ?

[06:19] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: I thought it was purely an NTFS issue. sudo fdisk -l. Does ubuntu see the drive?
[06:19] <Romnous> let's say i have a linux server as a gateway, and i have a windows computer which logs on, grabs /desktop/ folder contents and update it's own /desktop/ folder
[06:19] <ShackJack> mpiric: No - it is a FF issue

[06:23] <Borat> ShackJack, i must be missing it, which tab?
[06:23] <Romnous> it's the same as having a windows server 2003, but i want it to be linux, because that's a better OS :)
[06:23] <bulmer> r12aq:  take a look at dpkg-????  those are the command line behind synaptic or update manager
[06:23] <ShackJack> Borat: In gnome-terminal ?
[06:24] <Borat> yes

[06:28] <py_geek> shackjack?
[06:28] <PriceChild> threethirty, ubotu is a bot, the !foo calls a factoid, then the | makes ubotu prefix the factoid with someone else's name
[06:28] <ShackJack> py_geek: Eh?
[06:28] <threethirty> ahhh, ok ty
[06:28] <scottd> Romnous: What's the trouble?
[06:28] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab, svn co http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk/ zimbra-xtras
[06:28] <PriceChild> threethirty, did you see ubotu speak afterwards?
[06:28] <Myzrael> !tux
[06:28] <py_geek> shackjack: I had  the nm-applet --sm-disable thing already in the startup programs, and i have added the applet to the top panel, but I don't see the thing where it will let me choose which network I want like I had before...
[06:28] <ubotu> tux is the Linux Mascot - http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/linux/
[06:28] <Romnous> i want to use a linux computer as a sort of domain controller
[06:28] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Whether you need help, or you just want to come for a chat. The IRC channel is ready. The server is irc.spotchat.org (standard port 6667) and the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:28] <Romnous> in a windows network
[06:28] <mpiric> Beky: i was in Linux Mint there are not that many people
[06:28] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk'
[06:29] <Pretor1ab> svn: PROPFIND of '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras/trunk': 301 Moved (http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net)
[06:29] <Romnous> so windows computers download their desktop/my documents data from a linux computer
[06:29] <ShackJack> py_geek: Right click-> About does it say nm-applet? does it say
[06:29] <BeCkY> shackjack : do u know how to get it?
[06:29] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: Try it without the "trunk" bit.
[06:29] <scottd> Romnous: What version of ubuntu ?
[06:29] <ShackJack> BeCkY: got to set up that server in your IM proggie then connect
[06:29] <py_geek> shackjack: it says- Network Monitor 2.12.1
[06:29] <Romnous> feisty 7.04
[06:30] <mpiric> Beky:  Servage.net then #linuxmint
[06:30] <scottd> Romnous: Just do a simple setup file and printer sharing turned on, and maybe static ips
[06:30] <ShackJack> py_geek: I think you want network manager ?  Start that from terminal... and see if appears in panel
[06:30] <Pretor1ab> ok brb
[06:30] <Burlynn> isnt there a page in the wiki thats kind of the 'what to install once your up and running' type page?
[06:30] <Romnous> scottd: i got file and printer sharing on, but what now lol??
[06:30] <ShackJack> Burlynn: Check out ubuntuguide.org :)
[06:30] <Stormx2> Burlynn: Not really, because people use ubuntu for different things.
[06:31] <Burlynn> ShackJack, thanks
[06:31] <Stormx2> ShackJack: Have we begun recommending ubuntu guide?
[06:31] <py_geek> shackjack: how do I do that?
[06:31] <scottd> Romnous: If you have file and printer sharing on, you can just go to places_>network on ubuntu
[06:31] <Romnous> scottd: i need the windows computers to grab data from the linux-computer on startup, and write to it on shutdown, like synchronizing
[06:31] <BeCkY> shackjack : see the window i opened?
[06:31] <ShackJack> Stormx2: No necessarily, but it has a lot of common/popular things ppl are lookinig for...
[06:31] <ShackJack> BeCkY: eh?
[06:31] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2,  same error::  svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras'
[06:31] <Pretor1ab> svn: PROPFIND of '/viewvc/zimbra-xtras': 301 Moved (http://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net)
[06:32] <scottd> Romnous: Well you might want start with ten years of computer science follwed with years of testing code
[06:32] <BeCkY> shackjack : I opened a private chat for us 2 cause theres so many people here
[06:32] <HSorgYves> what should i use to allow a user to run 1 programm with root permissions? sudo? something else?
[06:32] <scottd> Romnous: What exactly are you trying to do?
[06:32] <Romnous> lol there must be a way to synchronize folders between a linux and a windows computer right ?!
[06:32] <wib> Romnous: isn't that what a windows server is for? :)
[06:32] <py_geek> ShackJack- how do I do that?
[06:32] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Thanks, but not good etiquette unless you ask first... You should be able to setup in your IM progg... that server.. then connect ot channel...
[06:33] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: when i try to mount the drive with "force" option, it tells me, that he failed to access mountpoint: no such file or dir
[06:33] <Romnous> i want to have it as a linux server, because it's also the network's gateway. linux is more secure than windows, so i'm using linux as the gateway.
[06:33] <ShackJack> py_geek: Open terminal and type that command for nm-applet...
[06:33] <BeCkY> shackjack : please talk on that conversation i dont get anything ur saying!
[06:33] <scottd> Romnous: Why the auto read/writes from windows though?
[06:34] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Don't have it -- and what I said before.... Set up server in your IM proggie accounts then connect to channel - consult your IM's forum or IRC for more info...
[06:34] <poningru> Romnous: use rsync
[06:34] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: Have you created the mountpoint?
[06:34] <poningru> !rsync Romnous
[06:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync romnous - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:34] <poningru> !rsync | Romnous
[06:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:34] <py_geek> ShackJack: I type it and the terminal just sits there, with the cursor on a blank line.
[06:34] <Romnous> scottd: because i don't think there's a way to use a linux computer to exactly simulate a windows server 2003. so i'm using file syncing as a alternative
[06:34] <ShackJack> py_geek: Nothing new appears in gnome panel?
[06:34] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: how?
[06:35] <wib> Romnous: in our company we have a small business server which does all that and put it behind a linux firewall to make it secure
[06:35] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: svn co https://zimbra-xtras.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/zimbra-xtras zimbra-xtras
[06:35] <wib> a linuc router, that is
[06:35] <BeCkY> shackjack : I don't know what u mean..im not that old and i dont get big words like that!
[06:35] <scottd> Romnous: Try poningru's rsync maybe.
[06:35] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: sudo mkdir /your/mount/point
[06:35] <py_geek> ShackJack- nope. (Gnome panel meaning the top panel?)
[06:35] <ShackJack> BeCkY: Sorry, I can't help you, then.
[06:35] <Romnous> scottd: but is that one capable of cross-network synchronizing?
[06:35] <BeCkY> dammit
[06:35] <ShackJack> py_geek: Where ever - top/bottom...
[06:35] <poningru> Romnous: ofcourse
[06:35] <py_geek> ShackJack: nope
[06:36] <Romnous> poningru: you have an example??
[06:36] <BeCkY> can anyone help me?
[06:36] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, thats it!!
[06:36] <mpiric> Whether you need help, or you just want to come for a chat. The IRC channel is ready. The server is irc.spotchat.org (standard port 6667) and the channel name: #linuxmint.com

[06:37] <scottd> BeCkY: pm me
[06:37] <BeCkY> stormx2 : ys
[06:37] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: will that directory be removed when i unmount?
[06:37] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What IRC client do you use?
[06:37] <Stormx2> CommanderCool: No, it'll just become empty.
[06:37] <py_geek> shackjack?
[06:38] <ShackJack> O.K.  I gotta go get some exercise... It's a beautiful day out...
[06:38] <BeCkY> stormx2 : I'm so sorry..but i don't think im as old as u guys and i don't get half of the stuff ur saying!
[06:38] <hak111> kopete showing this for webcam. How can I fix it? http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/5093/snapshot1yt7.png  Webcam is working fine with ekiga
[06:38] <poningru> anyone need help?
[06:38] <Romnous> bulmer: doesn't seem to promising to me :/
[06:38] <CommanderCool> Stormx2: all that junk...
[06:38] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Well I'm 16, and I understood the term IRC client years ago.
[06:38] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What app are you using to talk to us, right now?
[06:38] <ShackJack> Stormx2: They didn't have IM where I was 16 :)
[06:38] <BeCkY> stormx2 : well im 12
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: it shows how to install LTSP, then a link to install samba
[06:39] <Stormx2> ShackJack: hehe.
[06:39] <BeCkY> and im a girl
[06:39] <py_geek> ShackJack: lol
[06:39] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Being a girl has nothing to do with it.
[06:39] <scottd> BeCkY: What program are you using to connect to freenode> irc?
[06:39] <Romnous> bulmer: yah i know, but that doesn't synchronize right?
[06:39] <Stormx2> BeCkY: What app are you using to talk to us, right now?
[06:39] <sebrock> I need help, when I boot my NFS mounts says failed, but when I go to the dir it is mounted. And this slows down boot? Does anyone know what this is?
[06:39] <py_geek> BeCkY: did you install ubuntu yourself?
[06:39] <ShackJack> Later y'all -- sorrry py_geek gotta go but maybe someone else can help...
[06:39] <py_geek> ShackJack: its ok. =P
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: well it doesnt off the bat, so one has to write a script in window (wsh?) to write to samba i gather
[06:39] <bulmer> Romnous: which windows os do you have?
[06:40] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Did your parents really name you BeCkY with a capital C and Y? I'm so sorry...
[06:40] <attunix> Hi. I just installed KDE with "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop," but how do I remove GNOME and all the GNOME apps?
[06:40] <Romnous> bulmer: windows xp professional, and home
[06:40] <scottd> Stormx2: That's wrong and hilarious
[06:40] <BeCkY> stormx2 : no :P my name is rebecca and my nickname is becky..but i like writing it like that
[06:40] <Stormx2> attunix: That might be a job for #kubuntu
[06:40] <threethirty> attunix: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
[06:40] <Nullset> DO i need to update my ubuntu using apt-get
[06:40] <py_geek> BeCkY: did you install ubuntu on your computer yourself?
[06:40] <scottd> sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop?
[06:40] <CommanderCool> /q
[06:41] <BeCkY> py_geek :yes
[06:41] <Nutubuntu> attunix,  http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[06:41] <sebsebseb> I want to upgrade  Feisty to the latest Gutsy alpha,  so  I run the get update command open up the updater and yeah,  however upgrading to Gutsy is not an option for me here.  I need to turn something on so that it becomes an option or?
[06:41] <py_geek> BeCkY: I'm Impressed
[06:41] <threethirty> nullset: you only NED to if the update notifier tells you there is a reason to do so
[06:41] <attunix> Nutubuntu: thanks for that :)
[06:41] <Stormx2> scottd: Wouldn't work. gnome-desktop depends on the parts of ubuntu, but the parts of ubuntu don't depend on ubuntu-desktop :(
[06:41] <sebsebseb> I want to upgrade  Feisty to the latest Gutsy alpha,  so  I run the get update command open up the updater and yeah,  however upgrading to Gutsy is not an option for me here.  I need to turn something on so that it becomes an option or?
[06:41] <xeniter_> hi all
[06:41] <xeniter_> does gaim have webcam support?
[06:41] <bulmer> Romnous: well with XP, you have to write a script to make the synchronization automatic, with AT or somekind of taskscheduler/manager
[06:41] <BeCkY> py_geek : thanku :)
[06:41] <mpiric> Linux Mint irc.spotchat.org (standard port 6667) and the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:41] <Nutubuntu> attunix,  y/w
[06:41] <sebsebseb> no  Gaim does not have web cam suppourt
[06:41] <sebsebseb> AMSN does though
[06:42] <py_geek> Well i'm off to the forums!
[06:42] <Nullset> I have isntalled dapper and dont wish to upgrade to edgy or feisty. Should i allow updates or not ??
[06:42] <dr_willis> mpiric,  using LinuxMint right now. :)
[06:42] <Stormx2> !upgrade | sebsebseb
[06:42] <ubotu> sebsebseb: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:42] <scottd> Well if you have to, take screenshots of the progs it will remove, and reinstall them when finished
[06:42] <BeCkY> but who can help me now?
[06:42] <threethirty> sebsebseb: did you change your sources list
[06:42] <Romnous> bulmer: isn't their ANY way to just synchronize folders between linux and windows
[06:42] <Stormx2> sebsebseb: The are instructions for command-line updating there.
[06:42] <xeniter_> my webcam has a green screen on kopete has someone a idea?
[06:42] <sebsebseb> nope  haven't changed anything
[06:42] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i think theres rsync for windows that can do it
[06:42] <westguy> Hi, if want to install macromedia flash player what command to use
[06:42] <hak111> kopete showing this for webcam. How can I fix it? http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/5093/snapshot1yt7.png  Webcam is working fine with ekiga
[06:42] <dr_willis> !flash
[06:42] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:42] <Romnous> dr_willis: for windows?
[06:42] <Stormx2> sebsebseb: The jist of it is: change all references of "feisty" to "gutsy" in /etc/apt/sources.list then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:43] <Nullset> please someone answer me ?
[06:43] <scottd> BeCkY: Join a different channel that doesn't have as much distracting chatter
[06:43] <BeCkY> please will someone atleast pertend to care about me
[06:43] <bulmer> Romnous: anything behind those you click has some kind of a script or command to do it for you..i already suggest AT and taskmanager
[06:43] <threethirty> sebsebseb: you need to go into /etc/apt/ and find the file source.list
[06:43] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i seem to recall some articals mentioning it.. but ive never used it.
[06:43] <boyam> !ask | BeCkY
[06:43] <ubotu> BeCkY: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:43] <BeCkY> I DID
[06:43] <Stormx2> Nullset: Allow updates.
[06:43] <mpiric> BeCky: go to SpotChat and  the channel name: #linuxmint.com
[06:43] <Stormx2> Nullset: It won't upgrade you to automatically.
[06:43] <sebsebseb> Storm2:  ah ha now I remember how I upgraded  Breezy to Dapper and Edgy to FEisty and that in the past.  ah ha need to edit that file.  it's been a while I forgot :d
[06:43] <Romnous> hmm :/
[06:43] <sebsebseb> thanks
[06:43] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you want help or just attention
[06:43] <dr_willis> Romnous,  you could mount the linux dir onto windows with samba, and then use about any windows tools to sync the 2 dirs.
[06:43] <threethirty> sebsebseb: np
[06:43] <Romnous> dr_willis you sure that works?
[06:44] <westguy> ubotu : can I use in terminal " sudo apt-get install xxxxx
[06:44] <BeCkY> scottd : help :P
[06:44] <Romnous> dr_willis: i'ma try it out
[06:44] <poningru> westguy: yes you can
[06:44] <dr_willis> Romnous,  i just drag/drop one to the other at the end of the day. :)
[06:44] <Stormx2> westguy: You're talking to a bot.
[06:44] <scottd> BeCkY: What is your problem that you are having?
[06:44] <westguy> but what name for flash? understand java is jre...
[06:44] <poningru> Romnous: just freakin use rsync will ya
[06:44] <dr_willis> Romnous,  im sure theres higher-tech solutions then what i am doing.
[06:44] <Nullset> one other question, i have just one account. the password to login is the password to sudo. should i make another account with a different password and delete this one
[06:44] <westguy> what is bot?
[06:45] <dr_willis> Romnous,  like poningru  said. :)
[06:45] <Nullset> I mean, is the account password same as the password for getting root access
[06:45] <dr_willis> roBOT
[06:45] <Stormx2> Nullset: Why would you do that?
[06:45] <Romnous> poningru: just freaking tell me if it's possible to use rsync cross-network
[06:45] <Nullset> erm, i am just too much security concious
[06:45] <westguy> Stormx2 are upi a bot?
[06:45] <jmchaffie> Hey all... My new nvidia card worked great for 4 hours, now when I boot, it just goes to black. You can blindly login and get startup sounds, but no visible screen. I am right now in an "Alt-F1" session using a shell irc... any help?
[06:45] <Stormx2> Nullset: Well, the only way someone can use sudo is if they know your password.
[06:45] <poningru> Romnous: I told you that already
[06:45] <Nullset> if someone gets access to my password, he wont get access to root
[06:45] <bulmer> Nullset: then do not forget to update /etc/sudoers or else your new user will not be a member of the "sudo"-able users
[06:45] <poningru> yes its posible
[06:45] <xtknight> Romnous, what does cross-network mean?  rsync is used to sync the kernel servers, for example
[06:46] <Stormx2> Nullset: And if you were security-concious, then you'd tell no-one your password.
[06:46] <BeCkY> scottd : i used to have linux mint and i was on irc spotchat and i had it on ubuntu but i i reinstalled ubuntu and i can't find it anymore
[06:46] <westguy> Stormx2 : what is the technical name for flash player
[06:46] <Romnous> xtknight: to use it across the network
[06:46] <Stormx2> !flash | westguy
[06:46] <bulmer> Nullset: right they would not have access to root, but at same time you dont have anyway to be root to do updates
[06:46] <ubotu> westguy: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:46] <dirk_> Hi together
[06:46] <xtknight> Romnous, well obviously this doesnt clarify anything
[06:46] <xtknight> Romnous|TESTING, across a LAN?
[06:46] <scottd> BeCkY: Are you on xchat now?
[06:47] <BeCkY> scottd : what is xchat?
[06:47] <Nullset> well, say someone hacks in my comp etc etc and gets the password, then if i have a different password for root, then the other guy wont be able to get root access
[06:47] <xtknight> Romnous|TESTING, i dont see why rsync shouldnt work on both the LAN and WAN
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: Type //join #xchat
[06:47] <attunix> scottd: there's only one /
[06:47] <Nullset> maybe i am just getting paranoid lol!
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: With only one slash
[06:47] <bulmer> xtknight: he wanted a repository to do an automatic update during his shutdown and boot up..
[06:47] <BeCkY> /join #xchat
[06:47] <Stormx2> BeCkY: Listen. For 10 minutes now, people have been asking you what program you are using right now to talk to us.
[06:47] <poningru> Nullset: you dont have to worry about it since root is not accessible
[06:47] <poningru> unless you make it accessible
[06:47] <Stormx2> BeCkY: When, if ever, are you planning to tell us?
[06:47] <bulmer> xtknight: windows files that is..not linux
[06:47] <poningru> this config is more secure
[06:47] <PriceChild> Stormx2, becky is on xchat-gnome
[06:47] <scottd> BeCkY: What program are you using right now!?
[06:47] <poningru> since the 'hacker' doesnt know your default username
[06:47] <Stormx2> PriceChild: <BeCkY> /join #xchat
[06:47] <PriceChild> scottd, becky is on xchat-gnome
[06:48] <Stormx2> PriceChild: Doesn't look like it.
[06:48] <BeCkY> HUH???
[06:48] <sebsebseb> BeCkY:  xchat is an IRC client program  that you can use to chat here
[06:48] <PriceChild> Stormx2, according to the ctcp version then he/she is.
[06:48] <Nullset> Can i rename my username
[06:48] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know what a program is?
[06:48] <xtknight> either it's a troll or she probably doesn't even know what this channel is.  she just clicked on Xchat to get some attention, it just soudned good..
[06:48] <xtknight> cmon
[06:48] <PriceChild> Nullset, /nick newnick
[06:48] <Nullset> okay
[06:48] <BeCkY> scottd : yes
[06:48] <westguy> I use this cmd : sudo apt-get install flash, but couldn't find package
[06:48] <OD> how do you reverse a dual boot system? I have a hard drive in an external case with Ubuntu on it, and windows xp home on the internal drive. how do I revert everything to single boot?
[06:48] <scottd> BeCkY: What other channel are you connected to?
[06:48] <poningru> Nullset: your username in ubuntu? or in this channel?
[06:48] <Nullset> PriceChild : not on irc but on ubuntu
[06:48] <jmchaffie> Anyone... I am stuck w/ shell only and am having trouble keeping up in here... any ideas why a new 7200gt would have issues after a few hours even after a new re-install?
[06:48] <BeCkY> cottd : non right now
[06:48] <sebrock> I need help, when I boot my NFS mounts says failed, but when I go to the dir it is mounted. And this slows down boot? Does anyone know what this is?
[06:48] <Nullset> lol
[06:49] <BeCkY> scottd *
[06:49] <Stormx2> scottd: Just #ubuntu
[06:49] <sebsebseb> sebrock:  sebrock hummmmmm what a name?
[06:49] <jmchaffie> *7600gt
[06:49] <scottd> PriceChild: Thanks
[06:49] <Nullset> I want to know how to change my username on ubuntu lol
[06:49] <poningru> Nullset: hold on looking
[06:49] <PriceChild> Nullset, ahh ok... erm I'm not sure really... Its easy to make a new user (add to the admin group) and then copy settings... but not sure about changing existing username.
[06:49] <IdNotFound> westguy: if you want Macromedia Flash, it's called flashplugin-nonfree
[06:49] <Stormx2> Nullset: You should have set it in the install? ;-)
[06:49] <OD> ext. is usb and internal is pata .
[06:49] <sebrock> sebsebseb :D
[06:49] <Nullset> well yeah, but now i want to change it
[06:50] <Stormx2> Nullset: System > Administration > Users & Groups
[06:50] <sebsebseb> Adobe flash now since Adobe brought Macromedia
[06:50] <BeCkY> scottd : At the top it says #ubuntu
[06:50] <poningru> Nullset: go to system->admin->user and groups
[06:50] <poningru> and then click on your username
[06:50] <poningru> and properties
[06:50] <IdNotFound> sebsebseb: yeah, sorry... not used to calling it Adobe Flash yet :)
[06:50] <dirk_> Could someone help me? I have an partition /media/daten. Today I installed ubuntu new. I wanted to copy my music to this partition. No rights to write. SO I changed the right under root with chmod 777 /media/daten. Now I can write on this partiton. But now then I want to open a file for example in my home directory is it light grey int the background an I can't open it. If I use the shell, e.g. with apt-get install file. I get the message that the file is
[06:50] <dirk_>  not available. But with ls -l I saw the file. What had I done?
[06:50] <sebrock> sebsebseb *bought not brought
[06:50] <poningru> then in under user name change it
[06:50] <Ashfire908> i'm having trouble running rsync
[06:50] <sebsebseb> sebrock:  whatever :d
[06:50] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know how to join another channel??
[06:50] <BeCkY> scottd : not really
[06:50] <xtknight> hm xchat doesn't respond to CTCP version?
[06:50] <sebrock> anyway, why is NFS saying failed upon boot but clearly it mounts anyway????
[06:51] <Stormx2> dirk_: apt-get doesn't move files. It installs packages.
[06:51] <IceLink> hi
[06:51] <PriceChild> sebrock, nfs isn't supported under ubuntu is it?
[06:51] <dirk_> I know
[06:51] <PriceChild> scottd, that's enough.
[06:51] <poningru> dirk_: apt-get install is to install software
[06:51] <Ashfire908> every time i rsync, it spits out errors. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31812/
[06:51] <poningru> to open files its cd filename
[06:51] <westguy> okok wondering where the package is downloaded from?
[06:51] <scottd> PriceChild enough what?
[06:51] <aryr> hello all
[06:51] <Dromar> BeCkY,  type "/join #the-channel"
[06:51] <BeCkY> scottd : whats the street thing for?
[06:51] <threethirty> hello aryr
[06:51] <sebrock> PriceChild com on... NFS is not supported ? LOL
[06:51] <dirk_> But my problem is after that I done what I discribe I can't work with any files in my directory
[06:51] <BeCkY> dromar : in here or in the terminal
[06:51] <IndyGunFreak> "/join #indygunfreak"
[06:51] <xtknight> of course it is
[06:51] <Stormx2> poningru: No. That changes working directory.
[06:52] <scottd> BeCkY: Do you know how to use synaptic package manager or a terminal
[06:52] <scottd> ?
[06:52] <poningru> ...
[06:52] <IndyGunFreak> BeCkY: here, but w/o quotes
[06:52] <Dromar> BeCkY, here ^^ it's a xchat's commande
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, is it? :)
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, it's linux ;)
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, pleasant surprise.
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, nfs should be supported everywhere, on all unix systems, right?
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, hehe I didn't know... what about nfs+ or w/e it is?
[06:52] <poningru> Stormx2: you gotta keep it in the same wording as file manager
[06:52] <Enselic> Does anyone know of a good quota setup tutorial, preferably for Ubuntu?
[06:52] <poningru> dont confuse them
[06:52] <xtknight> PriceChild, maybe not officially by canonical but that's another story
[06:52] <PriceChild> xtknight, right :)

[06:52] <Stormx2> poningru: Why?
[06:52] <IceLink> i've go a midi-file and want to open it with timidity but special parameters, so i wanted it to open with an .sh-file which starts timidity with these parameters, but the filename itself misses, is there a possibility to use the file name inside an .sh ?
[06:52] <Stormx2> poningru: What you said is completely incorrect.
[06:52] <poningru> Stormx2: so as not to confuse the guy
[06:53] <aryr> is there a gd noob guide to getting tar.gz unzipped & installed ?

[06:56] <sebrock> I need help, when I boot my NFS mounts says failed, but when I go to the dir it is mounted. And this slows down boot? Does anyone know what this is?
[06:56] <westguy> rambo3 : I am using apple powerMac G4 dual processor 1.25
[06:56] <Stormx2> Enselic, IceLink, this would be best in #bash
[06:57] <rambo3> westguy, what kernel is that ?
[06:57] <IceLink> Enselic: so if nautilus opens a file, it sets the file name as first parameter
[06:57] <Stormx2> !flashplugin-nonfree
[06:57] <threethirty> rambo3: thats the PPC kernal
[06:57] <Enselic> IceLink: that's probably the default, yes
[06:57] <meisam> hi , can anyone help me with a good open source ocr program? or may be introduce a channel to join in

[07:03] <Pretor1ab> it asks me to set JAVA_HOME
[07:03] <poningru> MaxRandor: no it will be /dev/sd something
[07:03] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: Google it.

[07:04] <poningru> Pretor1ab: do JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java
[07:04] <minerale> I want something like windows and osx for a living room computer, where it automatically logs in
[07:04] <Pretor1ab> did that too Stormx2 same error
[07:04] <deathnall> cmon guys someone must know a link or maybe actually able to help me out with this problem?
[07:04] <nohaycubetto> does anyone know why /bin/dd bs 1 if /proc/kmsg of /var/run/klogd/kmsg would be running in ubuntu-server 6.06 ?

[07:05] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: Find the one referencing sun. then
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> I'm trying to get Firefox to run more stably by making sure that my Flash stuff is up to date. When I look at the flash or swf packages that I have installed I find only libswfdec0.3 ... How do I upgrade this properly?

[07:05] <MoH79> is everybody out there who can help me ? i have a problem whith my downloadspeed under ubuntu , it is very slow the same data with winXP donload full speed
[07:05] <Pretor1ab> cool thanks
[07:05] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: sudo update-java-alternatives -s <nameofoneyouwant>
[07:05] <Myzrael> minerale, not really. Just wondering why.
[07:05] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: E.g. sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun
[07:05] <Myzrael> can't really help you though
[07:05] <Stormx2> poningru: Any reason, my good man?
[07:06] <minerale> myzrael: it's a living room computer, i have roomates
[07:06] <Pretor1ab> so i am telling ubuntu which version of java to use right ? Stormx2
[07:06] <AYapejianMI>  I have a T60 laptop with ati x1400, I know how to enable dual head display with an external monitor, however the laptop monitor has the gnome panel on it.  How do I make it so the external monitor has the gnome panel, applications, etc...?
[07:06] <poningru> Stormx2: yes because what you did with update-alternatives was a good way to help people
[07:06] <Nullset> I have a 100 MB .nfo file, is there a proggy that i can use to open, view and read it
[07:06] <minerale>  I need the computer to automatically login, I know it can be done easily but can't remember how
[07:06] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: That's correct.
[07:06] <poningru> telling people to google it is not
[07:06] <deathnall> poningru: ok i have a psps here and i scanned for wireless connections. i found 3 of em. so  i want to be able to access these from linux. i need to find out there ip. i mean i can brealk the wep key but i want to know how to scan for these like my psps di on the psp. so linux=scan for connections= me get onto them . please
[07:06] <Stormx2> poningru: It's called self-help, and it's an aquired skill.
[07:06] <poningru> Stormx2: unfortunately this is a noob channel we try to help them
[07:07] <poningru> not rtfm
[07:07] <Stormx2> poningru: I only come to this channel for help when I can't find help otherwise.
[07:07] <AYapejianMI> Are there any other good linux channels for more experience users of linux?  Doesn't have to be ubuntu specific?
[07:07] <AYapejianMI> any suggestions
[07:07] <AYapejianMI> ?
[07:07] <Stormx2> poningru: So, you're saying the man pages are useless?
[07:07] <Stormx2> AYapejianMI: ##linux maybe?
[07:07] <slaq> hi
[07:07] <poningru> Stormx2: a noble cause, but a noob doesnt know how to read man pages
[07:07] <slaq> anyone know how to hook a bluetooth camera phone into digiKam?
[07:07] <IndyGunFreak> AYapejianMI: maybe ##linux?
[07:07] <poningru> Stormx2: you are not a normal end user then
[07:08] <Nullset> poningru is correct
[07:08] <poningru> lets take this elsewhere
[07:08] <Myzrael> minerale, maybe run sudo gdmsetup if you're on gnome
[07:08] <Stormx2> poningru: I guess we'd better stop writing documentation then?
[07:08] <Myzrael> that should give an autologin option
[07:08] <Stormx2> Okay sure.
[07:08] <N00b> :p
[07:08] <threethirty> LOLOLOLOLOL!!!111
[07:08] <Stormx2> poningru: man pages are only useless to absolute newcomers. I expect 95% of this channel knows how to use man.
[07:08] <xtknight> man pages suck
[07:09] <Stormx2> Why?
[07:09] <xtknight> even for people who know what they're doing
[07:09] <Nutubuntu> man?
[07:09] <Stormx2> Uhg.
[07:09] <Nutubuntu> ;P
[07:09] <Myzrael> man pages do suck.....that's true most of the time.
[07:09] <Nullset> hey, what about my nfo file reader
[07:09] <poningru> guys lets take offtopic elsewhere i.e -offtopic
[07:09] <Stormx2> I don't see why.
[07:09] <deathnall>  poningru: ok i have a psps here and i scanned for wireless connections. i found 3 of em. so  i want to be able to access these from linux. i need to find out there ip. i mean i can brealk the wep key but i want to know how to scan for these like my psps di on the psp. so linux=scan for connections= me get onto them . pleas
[07:09] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, what would a valid path to jre be do you think ?
[07:09] <IndyGunFreak> Myzrael: but if you read them, there's a wealth of info there.
[07:09] <xtknight> most of the time they are awful for actually trying to do something.  look up a parameter, itll generally tell you what it does.  but i dislike them otherwise
[07:09] <Nullset> yeah, you need some sort of technical expertise to read the man pages
[07:09] <slaq> anyone here use a bluetooth camera phone with any photo mgmt software (digiKam or gthumb)?
[07:09] <Enselic> Stormx2: because they are for 1970:s terminals
[07:09] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: Have you done what i said? Is this a new issue?
[07:09] <Myzrael> @Indy I do use them sometimes with new apps.
[07:09] <seria-mau> Stormx2: man sudoers
[07:09] <Stormx2> Nullset: What, like, using the up/down arrows?
[07:09] <Myzrael> But it's not always usefull.
[07:09] <poningru> deathnall: um... I am not going to tell you how to crack wep keys dude
[07:10] <Pretor1ab> yes Stormx2 i did what you said
[07:10] <Nullset> no the kind of language
[07:10] <xtknight> man pages are more technical specifications of what a program does (by devs, for devs) rather than User Guides which these people need
[07:10] <deathnall> no i dont want oto know how to crack them
[07:10] <Stormx2> Pretor1ab: New problem then?
[07:10] <IndyGunFreak> Myzrael: hmm, my experience has generally been they are quite useful.. guess it just depends on the app.
[07:10] <Myzrael> xtknight, exactly
[07:10] <Nullset> its like same as reading a rfc
[07:10] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2,  i still get the same error - i  must have done something wrong
[07:10] <threethirty> most of the time i have to man half the stuff in the original manpage
[07:10] <Myzrael> I prefer a wiki page most of the time.
[07:10] <poningru> ok guys
[07:10] <deathnall> dude i just want to onow how i can see them on linux

[07:10] <deathnall> not the keys but there ips
[07:10] <xtknight> ya i love wikis ;)
[07:10] <seria-mau> Stormx2: basically you have to learn ebnf for that one, at first. _that_ sucks pretty much, really
[07:10] <poningru> deathnall: see them in linux?
[07:10] <deathnall> yes
[07:10] <deathnall> you know
[07:10] <deathnall> like my psps says there are 3 connections
[07:10] <poningru> deathnall: you can see the wifi access points right?
[07:10] <poningru> psps?
[07:10] <deathnall> how do i do it in linux
[07:11] <deathnall> yes on the psps
[07:11] <Myzrael> minerale, figured it out yet?
[07:11] <deathnall> psp
[07:11] <deathnall> not on linux
[07:11] <Nullset> but then does anyone know of a .nfo file reader which works on ubuntu and can open huge (like 100 MB) .nfo files
[07:11] <slaq> boohooooo i want to get the pics of my bluetooth phone into digikaaam booohoooooo :,(
[07:11] <xtknight> playstation potable
[07:11] <poningru> oh
[07:11] <deathnall> yes
[07:11] <Myzrael> minerale, sudo gdmsetup should work if you're on gnome
[07:11] <deathnall> but can i do this on linux like my psp does?
[07:11] <threethirty> deathnall: try running airsnort
[07:11] <poningru> deathnall: what version of ubuntu do you have?
[07:11] <deathnall> ok 2 secs i have that
[07:11] <xtknight> Nullset, "cat file.nfo" ?
[07:11] <deathnall> 7.4?
[07:11] <deathnall> is it?
[07:11] <Myzrael> Nullset, 100mb .nfo files? :P what kind of stupid phone is that
[07:11] <eldkraft> hello, I got a little problem. It's like this 1 partition with SUSE 10.2 and 1 partition with Ubuntu 7.04 and then a third partition that both OS share as /home. Now, I started to understand what was going on when swiftweasel on Ubuntu had beagle index as a addon. Seems like both OS's share some mozilla file in the home dir, I'm guessing the file 'appreg', when I'm trying to add a addon on switweasel [ubuntu]  it com
[07:11] <eldkraft> es out with an error. This doesn't happen in SUSE. How do I set permission for swiftweasel to use the file/make another file for swiftweasel?
[07:11] <sebsebseb> downloading the updates now :)
[07:11] <eldkraft> sry for double..
[07:12] <Stormx2> Listen folks. I spend a lot of nights helping people here. I've been in here most of this afternoon too. There ARE circumstances where a good search, or a package's documentation, is the best way to solve a particular issue.
[07:12] <poningru> deathnall: does your wifi work in ubuntu?
[07:12] <Stormx2> s/good/google.
[07:12] <poningru> deathnall: click on the little computer icon on the top right corner
[07:12] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: i completely agree with you... don't know why everyone is havin a hissy
[07:12] <sebsebseb> Stormx2:  dowloading the upgrades now :)
[07:12] <deathnall> poningru
[07:12] <Nutubuntu> I'm trying to get Firefox to run more stably by making sure that my Flash stuff is up to date. When I look at the flash or swf packages that I have installed I find only libswfdec0.3 ... How do I upgrade this properly?
[07:12] <deathnall> just do that ?
[07:12] <Zambezi> How many here burns DVD/CD in the terminal? Is it working well?
[07:12] <IndyGunFreak> Zambezi: via the terminal?.. never tried it.
[07:12] <poningru> deathnall: yes and you will see the wifi access points
[07:12] <xtknight> Zambezi,  actually the GUI cd burners are based off terminal cd burners
[07:13] <xtknight> wodim/etc
[07:13] <xtknight> and mkisofs
[07:13] <IdNotFound> did anyone ever tried copying a CD from Nautilus? it is taking forever to create a image, and still at 0% oO (accepting program suggestions aswell)
[07:13] <deathnall> ok im on airsnort but what does network device and driver type mean?
[07:13] <Myzrael> what do you mean Zambezi? Terminal apps work just as well as gui apps and most of the time better.
[07:13] <Nullset> will cat open a 100 MB .nfo file
[07:13] <poningru> deathnall: or go into a terminal and do 'iwlist scan'
[07:13] <Nullset> ?
[07:13] <Stormx2> Of course telling people to rtfm when they clearly won't understand it is bad, but there isn't a hard-and-fast rule on the best way to solve a problem, :)
[07:13] <xtknight> Nullset, cat file.nfo | less
[07:13] <xtknight> Nullset, and scroll through
[07:13] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: rtfm!  :)
[07:13] <threethirty> stormx2: the last thing a noob needs is some wanker yelling at them in IRC, this is a COMMUNITY these people are on your side, act like it
[07:13] <Nullset> okay, thanks. I will try that
[07:13] <xtknight> and not to mention it's rude
[07:13] <bill> hello
[07:13] <Stormx2> I'm taking this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:13] <Zambezi> xtknight, I know, but it's a little harder to know what I should write to get a sucessful burn.
[07:13] <Nutubuntu> Stormx2, I'm not disagreeing w/ you but I think this is really OT
[07:13] <xtknight> you probably wouldn't say it if you were talking to the guy in real life, so why say it here?
[07:13] <IdNotFound> xtknight: you could just 'less file.nfo'
[07:14] <xtknight> no need to act all high and mighty
[07:14] <deathnall> it says this
[07:14] <deathnall> deathnall@deathnall-desktop:~$ iwlist scan
[07:14] <deathnall> lo        Interface doesn't support scanning.
[07:14] <deathnall> eth0      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[07:14] <IndyGunFreak> threethirty: just curious, how much time do you spend here helping people?.. i've not saw you here to much.
[07:14] <Stormx2> Nutubuntu: I know, haha. Sorry.
[07:14] <poningru> Stormx2: thank you :)
[07:14] <xtknight> IdNotFound, all i know about nautilus cd copying is it only works for data
[07:14] <bill> i need help getting the berly manger to run
[07:14] <bill> beyl
[07:14] <bill> oops
[07:14] <bulmer> deathnall: man iwlist
[07:14] <xtknight> Zambezi, ya im not sure either, personally
[07:14] <bill> beryl
[07:14] <IdNotFound> xtknight: good enough, it's an audio cd hehe... any suggestions ?
[07:14] <xtknight> idaho45, Nullset true
[07:14] <IndyGunFreak> threethirty: i don't know how often you're here(i'm guessing not much), but Stormx2 is here fairly frequently
[07:14] <Romnous|TESTING> it seems that i need to install rsync on windows, if i want to backup files from a windows share to a linux share, is there a way to only do this from linux?
[07:14] <threethirty> i spend most of my time on ubuntuforums and on my lug mailing list
[07:14] <poningru> deathnall: ok it seems that your wifi isnt setup
[07:14] <xtknight> IdNotFound, hmm.  k3b?
[07:14] <IndyGunFreak> sso who's helping hte community?
[07:14] <IdNotFound> xtknight: i'll look into it
[07:14] <deathnall> oo good one
[07:14] <poningru> deathnall: you have to setup wifi in ubuntu
[07:14] <Zambezi> Myzrael, Sometimes it's hard to know what to write, but I know K3B is GUI for a terminalbased burningapplication.
[07:15] <deathnall> how do i set it up?
[07:15] <Nullset> You know, i have been with many communitites but what i like best about ubuntu is its community, the patience that people have in here while we ask all sort of stupid questions makes me feel so ....i dunno
[07:15] <poningru> deathnall: system->admin->network
[07:15] <IdNotFound> xtknight: ugh, anything that doesn't require KDE stuff?
[07:15] <poningru> what do you see there?
[07:15] <xtknight> IdNotFound, hmm gnome-baker
[07:15] <poningru> do you see any wifi or anything?
[07:15] <bill> i need help getting the beryl manger to run
[07:15] <IndyGunFreak> well, then why are you having a hissy about people here?
[07:15] <evan_> hey ive this problem i installed beryl and i changed some settings now my terminal is white what can i do?
[07:15] <IndyGunFreak> go to your lug and mailing list/message board
[07:15] <deathnall> no only wired and modem
[07:15] <Myzrael> Zambezi, most of them are terminal based
[07:15] <Zambezi> xtknight, The "problem" is, if I manage to get a good "command" for burning, then I'll be able to use one less computer.
[07:15] <HOT> expand a bit on that bill
[07:15] <poningru> deathnall: ok are you sure you have wifi? and have it turned on?
[07:15] <Myzrael> the terminal app is simply very good
[07:15] <deathnall> im router
[07:15] <IdNotFound> xtknight: cool name, thanks again... apt-getting :)
[07:15] <deathnall> i mean im wired
[07:16] <deathnall> but
[07:16] <xtknight> Zambezi, same with a gui app though, right ?
[07:16] <bill> ?
[07:16] <deathnall> lynks
[07:16] <Myzrael> been a while since I burned something though
[07:16] <Zambezi> Myzrael, I know. I prefer terminal.
[07:16] <bulmer> deathnall: man iwlist <--did you do this yet?
[07:16] <poningru> deathnall: I meant does your laptop have wifi?

[07:18] <poningru> ...
[07:18] <Zambezi> xtknight, Putting the burner i the server without X and hope I can find a howto.
[07:18] <poningru> deathnall: yes that kinda would be required for ubuntu to detect it!!
[07:18] <xtknight> Zambezi, ahh.
[07:18] <deathnall> ok 2 secs
[07:18] <bill> its installing the beryl manager
[07:18] <Ashfire908> i got this while compiling stuff "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" how to i fix that
[07:18] <bulmer> lolz @ deathnall
[07:18] <bill> that might be the problem

[07:29] <nohaycubetto> poningru cause it was using resources and apache started slowing down
[07:29] <gabbarinho> is the downloadable version of ubuntu constantly updated with new drivers, etc or updated just once when a new version of the kernel is released?
[07:29] <deathnall> k
[07:29] <nohaycubetto> its a server
[07:29] <deathnall> im back

[07:30] <astro76> gabbarinho, every six months when the new ubuntu version is released
[07:30] <Zambezi> One question. I need to run my workstation as firewall/routing. Should I use pfSense in Virtualbox or take some integreted with Ubuntu? Not Iptables. I need a soluion which is easy to setup.
[07:30] <poningru> you are connecting the usb to the computer right?
[07:30] <Pretor1ab> Stormx2, how do i install java jdk ???
[07:30] <mm_202> Hi guys, I want to use NFS for my /home, but Im worried about my wireless laptop, what happens when I get away from the network.  Is there any programs out there that would let me be 'offline' and then when I get back online, it sync up to my nfs /home ?
[07:30] <deathnall> ok im in term
[07:30] <gabbarinho> that's what i thought
[07:30] <Romnous|TESTING> is there a way to setup ubuntu 7.04 (feisty) as a domain controller in a windows network, and use roaming profiles?

[07:31] <Espen77> is there an easy way to make ubuntu upgrade it self when there is new packages awailable?
[07:31] <poningru> deathnall: do a 'lsusb'

[07:31] <Pretor1ab> thanks Stormx2
[07:31] <Stormx2> Espen77: I think you can set up update-manager to do that.
[07:31] <gabbarinho> as a result, i can't use the live cd feature
[07:31] <deathnall> ok it sees it
[07:31] <Romnous|TESTING> is there a way to setup ubuntu 7.04 (feisty) as a domain controller in a windows network, and use roaming profiles?

[07:33] <deathnall> hmmm
[07:33] <poningru> deathnall: hmm ok what model number is the usb?
[07:33] <savetheWorld> kitche: I understood that! Scary...
[07:33] <Stormx2> Espen77: At any rate, you'd need to enter your password, so i don't think it can by automatic without some kind of daemon
[07:33] <Burlynn> how do i remove ndiswrapper from running at startup?
[07:33] <Nutubuntu> I'm trying to get Firefox to run more stably by making sure that my Flash stuff is up to date. When I look at the flash or swf packages that I have installed I find only libswfdec0.3 ... How do I upgrade this properly?

[07:34] <meoblast001> kitche: i ran the same on my site and got a simmaller error
[07:34] <cyberphaz> how do i tell GNOME to use another default application for say a .torrent file...
[07:34] <poningru> deathnall: go to a terminal and do 'dmesg' and pastebin that
[07:34] <Stormx2> Nutubuntu: swf-dec isn't the decoder that firefox uses.

[07:34] <gabbarinho> does the vista boot utility interfere with grub?
[07:34] <Espen77> stormx2: would have been nice to get rid of the password and clicking the two buttons part of it :P
[07:34] <deathnall> ok
[07:35] <xorgdestroyer> do I need to run this command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" after editing my xorg.conf?
[07:35] <Espen77> stormx2: thanx for trying :)
[07:35] <gabbarinho> i heard it's tricky to set up a xp/vista/ubuntu triple boot

[07:35] <Stormx2> Nutubuntu: The package that handles that is flashplugin-nonfree
[07:35] <poningru> deathnall: are you sure you typed that model number in correctly?
[07:35] <gabbarinho> hey, i knew that much :)

[07:37] <cyberphaz> ah nm figured it out
[07:37] <deathnall> wus854gs
[07:37] <deathnall> vers 2
[07:37] <gabbarinho> at least, i think that's the reason - the graphical interface doesn't appear
[07:37] <poningru> uh...
[07:37] <meoblast001> kitche: oh, i think i have a copy on Fedora, i could mount that and take it off

[07:50] <deathnall> hotkey it
[07:50] <meoblast001> kitche: no, i messed this one up bad on fedora
[07:50] <astro76> westguy, because the software is written well and in a modular fashion, individual services can be restarted instead of the whole system

[08:06] <Nutubuntu> astro76,  I temporarily enabled feisty-proposed in sources ... installed it ... and took feisty-proposed out again.
[08:06] <kitche> meoblast001: no your just missing configure script in the directory
[08:06] <egoleo> so what line would have that
[08:06] <kitche> egoleo: never used exim4 but I gave you a hint for you to look it up
[08:06] <null> hmm i guess I'll pass top -d 900
[08:06] <Nutubuntu> Perhaps now Firefox stops crashing quite as often, this would be nice
[08:06] <Silva> anyone help getting a wireless usb adaptor to work?
[08:06] <meoblast001> kitche: i got a new one, fedora can configure it, but Ubuntu is having a problem so that means its not the lack of script
[08:07] <egoleo> i have checked it
[08:07] <kitche> meoblast001: what is the error that it's giving
[08:07] <astro76> null, -n 1

[08:07] <bill> how do you make the beryl manger start up by itself
[08:07] <meoblast001> kitche: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[08:07] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: have you tried downloading the ubuntu feisty package from here?    http://linuxappfinder.com/package/lmms
[08:07] <kitche> meoblast001: well then you don't have a configure script
[08:07] <bill> or when ubuntu starts up
[08:07] <IndyGunFreak> it may have what you're looking for.
[08:08] <meoblast001> kitche: i remember something in fedora that was a script but i dont know what it was
[08:08] <meoblast001> im confused

[08:08] <joeybee> does anyone know of any skype phone handsets that are 100% compatible with ubuntu?
[08:08] <Sammyhellsyea> ok well i guess not
[08:08] <vox754> deathnall, that is a pretty good guide.  Also do not repeat.
[08:08] <westguy> hi is it possible to install graphics user interface for ubuntu server version?
[08:09] <deathnall> ok sorry
[08:09] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: how can i tell if that version has this svs support?
[08:09] <kitche> westguy: yes
[08:09] <deathnall> i just dont know what im doing

[08:09] <Sammyhellsyea> has anyone else seemed to notice a lot more firefox crashes since the last update came out?
[08:09] <westguy> kitche: any site to refer to?
[08:09] <jonah_> hi guys, how come when i enable desktop effects it works, but then when i do a metacity -replace to get my window borders back the desktop effects dissapear, can anyone help thanks
[08:09] <Flannel> westguy: Of course.  There's no differentiation between 'server' and 'desktop' versions.  Of course, if you're planning on installing a full GUI, it might be easier to just start with the desktop version and install the servers that you want
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> Sammyhellsyea,  absolutely yes.
[08:09] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: when installed you can check the plugins on the left for Vestige or you can try to remember if you did ./configure --with-vst when you make it
[08:09] <kitche> westguy: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop for gnome kubuntu-destkop for kde or xubuntu-destkop for xfce there is others as well
[08:10] <vox754> deathnall, What you have to remember is that some guides are a little outdated, so you need to be clever on what things apply to you. But since you seem quite new I'll try to give you some advice.
[08:10] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: i didn't ./configure, i downloaded it from linuxapp, hold on
[08:10] <meoblast001> ohhh
[08:10] <bill> how do you get the beryl manager to start up automatically when i log on ?
[08:10] <meoblast001> well it must be the svn version from lmms.sourceforge.net
[08:10] <westguy> Flannel: u mean I can add on the server components that I need in a desktop version?
[08:10] <_charlieX> hi ppl
[08:11] <Jamesinator> !offtopic | _charlieX
[08:11] <ubotu> _charlieX: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:11] <Flannel> westguy: of course.  Like I already said, there's no difference between 'desktop' and 'server' versions (they only have different programs installed by default)
[08:11] <bill> anyone know how
[08:11] <_charlieX> i gotta wireless question
[08:11] <Sammyhellsyea> ok, well anyways my laptop started being crappy lately, about a week after my desktop. so now i have two shit computers. and my laptop like when you click start takes like 10 mins to go. its like 6 months old so im kinda pissed i think its windows but im not so sure about linux =/
[08:11] <Flannel> bill: have you asked in #ubuntu-effects?
[08:11] <bill> nobody answers me
[08:11] <mpiric> Does anyone know how to fix the problem in Firefox about displaying <div> images or floating images?
[08:11] <vox754> Flannel, westguy although there IS a -server kernel, so I guess there are subtle differences.
[08:12] <Jamesinator> !patience > bill
[08:12] <deathnall> thnx vox
[08:12] <sadistic_> Sammy, download, burn, and boot off of a ubuntu disk to give it a try without installing it
[08:12] <deathnall> im trying to do it from reading this http site
[08:12] <kitche> !language | Sammyhellsyea
[08:12] <ubotu> Sammyhellsyea: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:12] <deathnall> i typed extract ndiswrapper
[08:12] <Flannel> vox754, westguy, except you can install the -server kernel on a previously desktop version.  There's *no* difference except the packages installed by default, just like the differences between ubuntu, kubuntu, et al
[08:12] <alesan> hi I'd like to customize the ubuntu logo at startup. what is the file I should messup with?
[08:12] <drthunder> Sammyhellsyeah: Linux runs like crap on laptops, try a windows re-install just so you have one computer running to fix your desktop, which linux should be awesome on
[08:12] <_charlieX> so does feisty support wireless cards for laptops?
[08:12] <BeCkY> byee guys
[08:13] <BeCkY> i found my channel :)
[08:13] <Sammyhellsyea> my desktop wont run it
[08:13] <_charlieX> cuz i had my previous version runnning more stable than feisty when it came down too wireless drivers
[08:13] <sadistic_> _charlieX - yes
[08:13] <jonah_> hello is anyone there please?
[08:13] <_charlieX> are they generic drivers?
[08:13] <Sammyhellsyea> and my bro has the same laptop and it runs fine
[08:13] <Jamesinator> !anybody | jonah_
[08:13] <ubotu> jonah_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:13] <sadistic_> depends on your wireless card
[08:13] <westguy> so can I use SMB to do a domain control for windows client pc ?
[08:13] <sauvin> The default web browser in feisty appears to be Konqueror. I would like it to be firefox. How to accomplish this?
[08:13] <iShock> How do I update the package list?
[08:14] <vox754> deathnall, what you need is this program called "ndiswrapper" and your drivers for windows XP. Yes that's right, you use the windows drivers in Linux.
[08:14] <kitche> sauvin: your on kubuntu?
[08:14] <iShock> How do I update the package list?
[08:14] <jonah_> Jamesinator, i've already asked
[08:14] <Flannel> sauvin: update-alternatives --config x-www-browser (after installing firefox, of course)
[08:14] <Jamesinator> jonah_: Then don't repeat yourself or ask redundant questions, it's just spam
[08:14] <Flannel> iShock: sudo apt-get update
[08:14] <sauvin> Kitche, ubuntu, but running KDE.
[08:14] <kitche> sauvin: well then your running kubuntu :)
[08:14] <iShock> Flannel: I have
[08:15] <sauvin> Am I?
[08:15] <Flannel> jonah_: Have you asked in #ubuntu-effects?
[08:15] <deathnall> cos it told me t odo this udo apt-get install cpp gcc build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r). so i did that. now its telling me to extract ndiswrapper from the attachment. so i type extract ndiswrapper but so far nothing has happened
[08:15] <kitche> sauvin: their the same thing just different desktop environment
[08:15] <orbstra> hey how do I check if my iptables are working?
[08:15] <orbstra> aside from iptables -L
[08:15] <Flannel> kitche: not necessarily, he mightve installed 'kde' and not 'kubuntu-desktop'
[08:15] <JeffJohnson>  /quit
[08:15] <sauvin> What I've installed came off a LiveCD, and it offered a variety of desktops out of the box.
[08:15] <meoblast001> i HATE compiling source
[08:15] <meoblast001> it only worked once for me
[08:15] <Jamesinator> orbstra: You can use a tool such as hping3 to craft a test packet to see if your rulesets are working
[08:15] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: well, is there another app in the repos that will do what you want?
[08:15] <jonah_> Jamesinator, i apologise for being ignorant
[08:15] <null> The culprit?  xfce4-netstat-plugin taking 700 MB of ram.  :D
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: ive compiled pidgin, the newest version of Gimp, and a fwe other programs.
[08:16] <orbstra> Jamesinator: do I just apt-get that
[08:16] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: with vst? im afraid not
[08:16] <DR_thunder> i gotta quit forgetting my irc password
[08:16] <_charlieX> is there anyone else here running running on a wireless laptop?
[08:16] <Jamesinator> orbstra: Yes, but it's fairly complex, you should read the manpage for using it afterwards
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> DR_thunder: you can choose to have irc save it.
[08:16] <Flannel> _charlieX: not currently, but yes.
[08:16] <orbstra> k cool
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> but then if you reinstal, or uninstall xchat, you'll have to remember it to re enter it.
[08:16] <DR_thunder> thanks indy
[08:17] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: someone compiled it on ubuntuforums
[08:17] <orbstra> and can someone give me an idea how to get startedon swatch... without the man or --help... It is really confusing me, so if there's another place to go i'd really appreciate it
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: ok...
[08:17] <vox754> deathnall, those commands are to compile ndiswrapper from source. However it may be easier if you just install ndiswrapper from the repositories.
[08:17] <deathnall> ok thnx
[08:17] <sadistic_> _charlieX - I am running wifi on this

[08:19] <Flannel> alesan: which one?

[08:19] <kitche> !usplash | alesan
[08:19] <ubotu> alesan: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:19] <Jack_Sparrow> _charlieX: wifi on two different laptops here.. both broadcom bx43xx as well
[08:19] <Flannel> sauvin: What opens things in konqueror?
[08:19] <vox754> deathnall, did you use synaptic or apt-get? How do you now that. What does "ndiswrapper -v" output?   No matter what I ask you, under no circumstance should you paste in this channel.
[08:19] <randoman> anyone know why apache wouldnt load up after typing chroot /chrootdir /apachedir?
[08:19] <vox754> !paste > deathnall
[08:19] <alesan> Flannel, I guess kitche gave me the info I needed
[08:19] <sauvin> I honked on a link from xchat and the link woke up in konkqueror.
[08:20] <randoman> it loads without any errors, just doesnt load anything into the background
[08:20] <randoman> basiclly doesnt load apache
[08:20] <sadistic_> Jack_Sparrow - funny thing is, lspci shows mine as a dell broadcom 1390, i have a compaq
[08:20] <kitche> sauvin: well xchat has it's own setup for browsers and links
[08:20] <deathnall> umm this guy told me to stype things in the terminal
[08:20] <randoman> I had it working once, then I killed the chroot process, and it hasnt worked sence
[08:20] <sauvin> That's possible; I'm looking.
[08:20] <alesan> kitche, what about the one used in gdm at login?
[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> sadistic_: These two are both hp.. go figure
[08:20] <deathnall> so im looking at my package manager
[08:20] <Flannel> alesan: you can change that under admin > login screen setup
[08:20] <deathnall> and there all green
[08:21] <deathnall> ngdisgtk but when i try to run it . it says something is wrong
[08:21] <_charlieX> anyone know a good site for tweaking kernel settings?

[08:23] <orbstra> hey can i turn iptables off really quick

[08:24] <Flannel> crysalys: No, you really dont.  There are native linux things that'll do it.  (DVD decrypter is a windows fancy package for a bunch of linux utilities)
[08:24] <deathnall> ok i got my beer
[08:24] <Flannel> !dvd | crysalys
[08:24] <ubotu> crysalys: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[08:24] <vox754> deathnall, if you want you can register your nickname to send private messages. Otherwise you can move to a private channel like ##deathnall or #ubuntu-classroom where long step-by-step instructions are allowed. All of this is better than flooding the present channel, which is for general support. It is up to you.

[08:25] <Flannel> crysalys: That factoid recommends k9copy, I believe there are others too
[08:25] <crysalys> DR_thunder: well i have all of the codecs I need but i cant find a program that will run an exact copy of a dvd. everything wants to convert it to avi or mpeg or what not.  i just want to convert to iso and then burn to a disk

[08:31] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:31] <poningru> indeed
[08:31] <poningru> swmiller6: the troubles come when you are upgading
[08:31] <poningru> I dont know if you were here for dapper->edgy upgrade
[08:31] <poningru> but a LOT of people's upgrade broke
[08:32] <orbstra> WTH
[08:32] <poningru> turns out almost every one of them had automatix installed
[08:32] <orbstra> im confused
[08:32] <swmiller6> Uninstall then upgrade
[08:32] <orbstra> when I type a certain message it just goes away
[08:32] <sauvin> What application under ubuntu is used to read e-books?
[08:32] <arcade> Hmm.  What's avahi?  And do I need it, I wonder.
[08:32] <orbstra> o oops its starting with a /
[08:32] <orbstra> nvm
[08:32] <orbstra> hey is it /etc/init.d/iptables ... or is it spelled another way??
[08:32] <poningru> sauvin: what kind of ebook?

[08:33] <poningru> deathnall: ok move it to an empty directory
[08:33] <deathnall> bit its an exe file

[08:34] <poningru> deathnall: I know
[08:34] <poningru> thats fine
[08:34] <deathnall> ok  i made a folder
[08:34] <Paddy_EIRE> any linux mint users in here
[08:34] <poningru> deathnall: ok go to that folder in a terminal
[08:34] <poningru> do you know how to do that?
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: i'm a little bit familiar with it.
[08:34] <deathnall> ok so how do i do that cos its on ym dekstop
[08:34] <Stormx2> Paddy_EIRE: Isn't that a linux distro?
[08:35] <poningru> deathnall: no dude make an empty folder and put it in that
[08:35] <deathnall> well its on my desktop in a folder
[08:35] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak: oddly my ati card does not show up in the restricted drivers manager and the ati driver that envy installs breaks X
[08:35] <poningru> oh gotcha
[08:35] <Paddy_EIRE> Stormx2: yes its basically ubuntu
[08:35] <deathnall> so i called it pathch
[08:35] <DexterF> hi
[08:35] <poningru> deathnall: in the terminal do 'cd Desktop/pathch'
[08:35] <deathnall> ok
[08:35] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: unfortunately, i don't mess wiht ATI drivers, because they suck.., so i couldn't really tell you a direction to go.
[08:35] <Flare183> How do you get the OCR thing to work in Krita
[08:36] <theshadow> I accidently deleted my lower task panel how do I get it back
[08:36] <westguy> how to upgrade desktop version to server version?
[08:36] <Flannel> theshadow: go down near the bottom of the machine, right click,  "add panel" then right click the panel "add to panel"
[08:36] <Flannel> westguy: What servers do you want?
[08:36] <deathnall> i put  cd desktop/patch but it says no file
[08:36] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak: I understand
[08:36] <IndyGunFreak> Flannel: wouldn't he need to right click his top panel?
[08:37] <westguy> Flannel :I want to use samba to control windows pc
[08:37] <poningru> deathnall: and then 'unzip *.exe'
[08:37] <Flannel> IndyGunFreak: Uh, I don't believe so.  But I haven't used a GUI in a few years, so maybe.
[08:37] <westguy> Flannel: domain controler
[08:37] <deathnall> k let me see
[08:37] <poningru> deathnall: its case sensitive
[08:37] <Flannel> !samba | westguy
[08:37] <ubotu> westguy: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:37] <IndyGunFreak> Flannel: lol
[08:37] <poningru> deathnall: you have to do the cd thing first
[08:37] <DexterF> most unusual problem here: got a mountpoint /mnt/smb1, has an fstab entry, sits on ext3. after mounting it it became unsual, trying to stat it causes an I/O error. caouldn't rm the dir, fsck came up with nothing. made a new mountpoint smb1a. used that, worked, unmounted it, rebooted - same as with the old one. wtgc?
[08:37] <IndyGunFreak> theshadow: right click your top panel, choose new panel, then drag said panel to the bottom and add what you want to it.
[08:37] <poningru> deathnall: its case sensitive so cd Desktop/patch is different from cd desktop/patch
[08:38] <deathnall> sorry to be a pain but it aitn working
[08:38] <charlie_> haven't used linux in a while and don't remember how to install programs once i've downloaded the such as firefox

[08:45] <poningru> vox754: hehe
[08:45] <asdx> does ubuntu 7.04 has a compiler (gcc) by default installed?
[08:45] <asdx> or do you have to install that with build-essential?
[08:45] <poningru> asdx: no
[08:45] <Flare183> asdx:> i think so
[08:45] <IndyGunFreak> asdx: i think its in build-essential
[08:45] <poningru> right
[08:46] <twosouls82>  build-essential indeed
[08:46] <vox754> !compile | asdx
[08:46] <DexterF> asdx: rather not. install build-essential, that'll give you basically what you need
[08:46] <Amaranth> gcc is installed by default
[08:46] <ubotu> asdx: 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!)
[08:46] <Amaranth> build-essential is not but build-essential is stuff for package building
[08:46] <meoblast001> http://pastebin.ca/638298 this is a make issue how would i fix it ?
[08:46] <Amaranth> by default ubuntu includes enough stuff to build kernel modules
[08:46] <shelia_> it says it can't find that package, any other suggestios?
[08:46] <DexterF> Amaranth: deps will pull gcc
[08:46] <deathnall> ok ibrowsed to it
[08:46] <poningru> shelia_: cant find what?
[08:46] <Amaranth> DexterF: no need, gcc is installed
[08:47] <DexterF> shelia_: yes: don't use limewire. seriously.
[08:47] <deathnall> im on wirless network drivers
[08:47] <shelia_> it can't find the limewire package
[08:47] <poningru> !limewire | shelia_
[08:47] <ubotu> shelia_: limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[08:47] <deathnall> so do i just click on install new drivers and find that file?
[08:47] <Gizmo_the_Great> Hi. I installed Fesity the other day. I tried to run a Java app. I got the error : "No suitable Java Virtual Machine could be found on your system. The version of the JVM must be at least 1.5. Please define INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME to point to a suitable JVM." I then installed Java 6 and the application worked. I have since rebooted but now when I try to run the app I get the same error? Any ideas?
[08:47] <Anlar> Amaranth: you can't do shit without build-essential anyways, and that is what he was after for, not knowing about that one minor irrelevant detail that gcc is installed by default.
[08:47] <poningru> deathnall: right
[08:47] <poningru> make sure its the right version
[08:48] <westguy> I have used apt-get install smbfs , but not sure where to find the short cut
[08:48] <poningru> deathnall: you have to find wusb54gsv2.inf
[08:48] <DexterF> !FrostWire
[08:48] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire

[08:48] <deathnall> i installed it
[08:48] <Flamespectre> hi
[08:49] <Amaranth> Anlar: And you can build kernel modules with the default ubuntu install so it's obviously not useless

[08:58] <Tulus> Is there a way how I can check when I installed Ubuntu?
[08:58] <rechercher> When I try to do ifup eth1 i get "Ignoring unknown interface eth1=eth1"
[08:58] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: i never had the ability to compile
[08:58] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: :)
[08:58] <vox754> Gizmo_the_Great, yes, I read the pages you linked. The program includes the a JRE. So maybe it is looking at the wrong place when you installed another one.
[08:58] <rechercher> but when i do ifconfig or iwconfig I see eth1
[08:58] <Gizmo_the_Great> orbisvicis, I run it OK in Ubuntu - GNOME
[08:58] <deathnall> ok i have already installed the driver but it still wont rec the wirless adapt
[08:58] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: unless its hitting build in Visual Studio
[08:58] <rechercher> why doesnt ifup see eth1?
[08:59] <Flannel> meoblast001: because a bin file only works with a small subset of setups, compiling from source lets you run anything anywhere (well, more or less)
[08:59] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: i'm certainly no expert, but i've been moderately successful(compiled the new version of Gimp, Pidgin, and a few others)
[08:59] <orbisvicis> hmm Gizmo_the_Great so does quanta
[08:59] <meoblast001> i compiled one thing that said like "type make and your done"
[08:59] <Gizmo_the_Great> orbisvicis, I was just suggesting an alternative to the outdated and rather buggy NVU. If Quanta suits, then use that. :-)
[08:59] <rechercher> meoblast001, and did it turn out that way?
[09:00] <orbisvicis> heh .. true. thanks Gizmo_the_Great
[09:00] <vox754> meoblast001, everything comes from source. Without source there would be nothing.
[09:00] <windio00> is there a way to get sprint wimax onto a router and then use with linux?
[09:00] <meoblast001> rechercher: i typed make and it was done
[09:00] <rechercher> nice
[09:01] <rechercher> frequently it is more like type make, go find some libraries, type make again
[09:01] <meoblast001> should i just wait for the SVN to be the official package and Ubuntu will have a copy?
[09:01] <iShock> Who here knows about vsftpd?
[09:01] <tofaffy> what is a good html/css editor for linux? (not bluefish)

[09:02] <dissection> Sorry, I don't know if someone responded to this already cause my highlight was disabled. Is there a way how I can check when I installed Ubuntu?

[09:04] <vox754> deathnall, so the installation went fine with ndisgtk, but still the USB thing doesn't work?
[09:04] <ser1k> ei
[09:05] <Flannel> meoblast001: What on earth is VST?
[09:05] <ser1k>   ?
[09:05] <ser1k> 
[09:05] <rechercher> Tasyne, type it at console to show info on hardware
[09:05] <ser1k>  ?
[09:05] <rechercher> or better yet lscpi -vv and find the section on your card
[09:05] <deathnall> umm yeah i mean i had to find the drivers for the wirless  usb
[09:05] <deathnall> i found them
[09:05] <ubuntu_> can anyone help me with installation problems?
[09:05] <rechercher> Tasyne, maybe it's lsusb in you case
[09:05] <deathnall> but it still doesnt seem to work
[09:06] <vox754> deathnall, I didn't follow your whole conversation, so I don't know. Did you extract the .inf and .sys files from the driver?
[09:06] <deathnall> yes
[09:06] <deathnall> then i ran that programme
[09:06] <Tasyne> lsusb gave me: Lexar Media, Inc. Microsoft Corp. MN510 802.11b Adapter. Alcor Micro Corp. Hub. Logitech, Inc.
[09:07] <Flannel> deathnall: Does `ndiswrapper -l` give you a thing that mentions (in a manner that looks like it's not confused) your wifi?
[09:07] <deathnall> ?
[09:07] <deathnall> let me try
[09:08] <meoblast001> flannel: VST, look it up on Wikipedia, its plugins;that are like instruments, widely used, invented by Steinberg
[09:08] <Clinton__> !info wine
[09:08] <ubotu> wine: Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.33-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 9576 kB, installed size 44452 kB
[09:08] <deathnall> ndiswrapper -l it came up with invalid drivver
[09:08] <vox754> deathnall, wo! then you have the wrong driver!
[09:08] <Flannel> meoblast001: I've been looking, can't find anything.  What version of SVN is it supported in?
[09:08] <tofaffy> how can I ssh into another box thats not local?
[09:08] <deathnall> ooo man
[09:09] <Flannel> tofaffy: ssh user@host
[09:09] <Flannel> deathnall: No big deal, just gotta track down the right driver.
[09:09] <tofaffy> not local :(
[09:09] <tofaffy> hrm
[09:09] <deathnall> well i have this linksys usb wirless thing
[09:09] <Flannel> tofaffy: That isn't local
[09:09] <Tasyne> rechercher: did you get that last comment?
[09:09] <meoblast001> flannel: the one listed on the download page of www.lmms.sf.net
[09:09] <tofaffy> kk

[09:09] <tofaffy> thanks
[09:09] <boocha> How do I install latest ubuntu if I don't have bootable CD drive? I have CD drive and bootable floppy but cannot boot from CD - this is an old laptop
[09:10] <Albaraha> my Linksys Wireless-G USB Adpater WUSB54GC is detected in Ubuntu and I have wlan0 but can't be connected to the router

[09:12] <Ashfire908> is there a driver for motorola v3c?
[09:12] <kitche> iShock: open up lynx and pastebin it
[09:12] <iShock> lynx?
[09:12] <rechercher> Tasyne, ok, what does iwconfig say?
[09:12] <kitche> iShock: but since your yelling I don't have to help you
[09:12] <meoblast001> Flannel; anouther possibility would be, if i could a way to install VEstige, i could just skip the big compile
[09:12] <Flannel> meoblast001: Ah.  I think I understand.  You're trying to get LMMS with VST, which you don't need a new version of subversion to do, any old version of subversion
[09:12] <martyn> can anyone help and tell me where i can find the shell setup file as i need to add something to it
[09:12] <anomm> i am trying to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file , but how do i save it properly?
[09:12] <kitche> iShock: yes a cli web browser that works well with gpm
[09:13] <meoblast001> flannel: thats not the problem, its a Makefile.svn not working
[09:13] <Flannel> meoblast001: when you're trying to install svn? or lmms?
[09:13] <westguy> Can ubuntu use CIFS/
[09:13] <meoblast001> flannel: lmms
[09:13] <vox754> anomm, open it with "gksudo sources.list" and then save.
[09:13] <Tasyne> rechercher: It says: lo no wireless extensions. wlan0 no wireless extensions.
[09:14] <anomm> what is the proper save command?
[09:14] <Flannel> anomm: you need to open it with sudo, gksu gedit /etc/... or sudo nano /etc.....
[09:14] <Flannel> anomm: ctrl-S in gedit, ctrl-O in nano
[09:14] <vox754> anomm, open it with "gksudo gedit sources.list" and then save. Rememebr you have root privileges with gksudo.
[09:14] <Ashfire908> is there a driver for motorola v3c? and can the driver allow me to connect to the internet in packet data mode?
[09:14] <anomm> i am using ubuntu server edition
[09:14] <rechercher> ok, so you need to install the right module

[09:14] <anomm> how can I save it (make changes) from the command line ?
[09:15] <Flannel> anomm: ctrl-O
[09:15] <vox754> iShock, maybe you could "echo file >> newfile"  No need for nano.
[09:15] <iShock> Flannel: Huh?
[09:15] <anomm> thank you
[09:15] <EmprCezar> Is it possible to somehow mark a package so that it won't upgrade
[09:15] <Tasyne> rechercher: and which module would that be?..
[09:15] <Flannel> iShock: You're in a text editor, you want to write stuff to a file, just save the file you have open.
[09:15] <iShock> Its on a server I cannot FTP to, and I need it on my computer
[09:15] <rechercher> Tasyne, not sure, look through the output of lsmod to see if it is loaded
[09:15] <kitche> iShock: well that is easy use scp
[09:16] <vox754> !best > Burlynn
[09:16] <rechercher> you said you installed the linux-wlan-ng  package right?
[09:16] <Flannel> iShock: Oh, You're using nano over ssh?  Your terminal (locally) probably supports copy/paste
[09:16] <jmantra> is their someone who can help me with NFS?

[09:16] <rechercher> Tasyne, someone here said that this tutorial worked for your card http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=121393
[09:17] <iShock> Flannel: It doesn't highlight it all..
[09:17] <boocha> Is there any way I can start from floppy and download the rest as I go?
[09:17] <rechercher> Tasyne, ook, i didnt realize that
[09:17] <rechercher> its not in a repository?
[09:17] <deathnall> ok so if i have installed the WUSB54GS ver.2. how do i install it
[09:17] <Flannel> iShock: Right, do it multiple times.  There is no 'copy all' through nano/ssh  Since all you see is what you can see.  You don't have access to the full file to be able to 'select all'
[09:17] <rechercher> boocha, starting from a floppy?
[09:17] <rechercher> not much space on there
[09:18] <boocha> No
[09:18] <dissection> Is there a way how I can check the date when I installed Ubuntu?
[09:18] <rechercher> few linux'es can even start from a floppy
[09:18] <boocha> I can start with a boot floppy
[09:18] <keito> can anyone think why some games are crawling at ridiculously low speeds with my ati x800 card?
[09:18] <boocha> And then download as I go
[09:18] <boocha> Like debian?
[09:18] <mabus> I installed ubuntu server, and then xubuntu-desktop on top of that. it runs RIDICULOUSLY slow. I can constantly hear what seems like hard drive activity, and even if I'm just doing a few low memory tasks, its loud and slow. Should I turn swap off, or something? Could it be something else? Ideas?
[09:18] <Flannel> !minimal | boocha
[09:18] <ubotu> boocha: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[09:18] <iShock> Flannel: It's a...Oh...my...God...
[09:18] <rechercher> boocha, what about a usbkey? that could work
[09:18] <anomm> ok, so I uncommented two lines in the sources.list file, but then I click CTRL-0 and nothing happens. I'm just trying to open the repositories. (using no GUI - server edition)
[09:18] <mabus> Flannel: he's talking about a floppy, I don't think that factoid helps him
[09:19] <boocha> My laptop is old! It can't do usbkey or anything other than floppy/PXE
[09:19] <Flannel> boocha: so use PXE
[09:19] <Tasyne> rechercher: a repository? I can't even connect to my network :c
[09:19] <boocha> ok
[09:19] <rechercher> Tasyne, ah, that was my problem 30seconds ago
[09:19] <Albaraha> vox754, Thanks man

[09:19] <rechercher> it would be WAY easier if you could get network to your machine Tasyne
[09:19] <Gizmo_the_Great> vox754, got my Java app working. I used grep (grep -r 'INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME' *)to search for the JAVA variable. That pointed to the source code of LightZone. So I opened LightZone, found the 'INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME' entry. Uncommented it and added the path to my JAVA app which was ' /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/jre'. And then it worked. Bravo.
[09:20] <xtknight> how do i pipe something to a file but also make it visible to me on screen?
[09:20] <Albaraha> vox754, does it work with WUSB54GC?
[09:20] <Tasyne> rechercher: I don't have a NIC in this machine, only a crappy wireless usb adapter.
[09:20] <rechercher> in some other way, like wired ethernet, or a different card that just works
[09:20] <anomm> does anyone have an idea?
[09:21] <mabus> xtknight: tee

[09:22] <threethirty> lusepuster: have you treid to manually mount it
[09:22] <rechercher> Tasyne, you could download the .deb packages for linux-wlan-ng from a repository on another computer and move them over and install
[09:22] <lusepuster_> DR_thunder, You'd want me to put windows on it? No thanks! And btw, she asked for it herself, and she likes it

[09:25] <orbstra> to represent the local area network
[09:25] <lusepuster_> threethirty, yeah thanks, but the keyword is 'device'... I guess it's in /dev somewhere, but which one is it?
[09:25] <Jack_Sparrow> lusepuster_: Just wanted to be sure it didnt have a lock on it.
[09:25] <mabus> lusepuster_: generally /dev/sda1
[09:26] <kitche> lusepuster_: it would be /dev/sda1 if you have a pata system if not it might be /dev/sb1
[09:26] <threethirty> lusepuster, yeah thats what I was trying to figure out, is it just the hdd or is it all flash storage devices
[09:26] <dissection> Is there a way how I can check the date when I installed Ubuntu?
[09:26] <kitche> /dev/sdb1*
[09:26] <lusepuster_> mabus, sda1 is my root partition! definitely not a flash drive.
[09:26] <mabus> lusepuster_: then sdb1, most likely
[09:26] <dissection> Anyone know?
[09:27] <rechercher> dissection, look for the modified date on system files, ones that dontget rewreitten
[09:27] <lusepuster_> mabus thanks. Is there some sorta solution to why iot deosn't mount on one of three feisty boxes?

[09:33] <Flex3000> I have an nVidia graphics card, could that be a part of the problem?
[09:33] <Flex3000> Hold on, let me check.
[09:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Crav: If the ntfs was below your installed ubuntu and you merge, you will mess up grub.. It is fixable, just wanted to point that out.. If you leave a small ext3 where the ntfs was it wont change things

[09:35] <RaVeN_>     ???????????????????????????
[09:35] <Flex3000> Vert 43-60
[09:35] <randoman> it has to have /chroot in front in order for it to be jailed
[09:35] <randoman> ?
[09:35] <Ifreeze> randoman, think you better try the & command so it s send to background
[09:35] <randoman> ?
[09:36] <Ifreeze> randoman, & command places programs to the background
[09:36] <randoman> it does when i type chroot /chrootdir /usr/sbin/apache it loads up in the background as /usr/sbin/apache not /chroot/usr/sbin/apache
[09:38] <randoman> would it be a lack of libs?
[09:38] <snowman> so I find myself needing to add an xp partition to my ubuntu laptop (proprietary software bites).  can someone answer whether or not it'll be possible to shrink the ext3, put in an ntfs and not kill the whole machine?
[09:38] <hustlebird> what do i type to install new firefox if its on my desktop
[09:38] <randoman> see last night it would load up in the background as /chroot/usr/sbin/apache

[09:39] <ubotu> snowman: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:39] <Flannel> snowman: first link there
[09:39] <martyn> Put the following somewhere in your shell setup file (.bashrc, .profile, .cshrc etc., depending on what shell you use), setting the "/usr/local/fsl" to wherever you have installed FSL:
[09:39] <martyn> bash / sh / ksh
[09:39] <martyn> FSLDIR=/usr/local/fsl
[09:39] <martyn> . ${FSLDIR}/etc/fslconf/fsl.sh
[09:39] <martyn> PATH=${FSLDIR}/bin:${PATH}
[09:39] <martyn> export FSLDIR PATH
[09:39] <martyn> tcsh / csh
[09:40] <martyn> setenv FSLDIR /usr/local/fsl
[09:40] <martyn> source ${FSLDIR}/etc/fslconf/fsl.csh
[09:40] <Flannel> martyn: Please don
[09:40] <martyn> setenv PATH ${FSLDIR}/bin:${PATH}
[09:40] <Flannel> !paste | martyn
[09:40] <ubotu> martyn: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:40] <bobrik> hello, I am testing Ubuntu gutsy; I want to report a problem with application, so I choose Help->Report a problem; the problem with this "problem reporting" is that it does not get reported upstream, it just directs me to Launchpad, but I would like to report it to GNOME bugzilla, so - what is the "Help -> Report problem" useful for?
[09:40] <snowman> the guy who installed this laptop (I acquired it with ubuntu already on it.) did it as all one partition
[09:40] <snowman> Jack_Sparrow: may I /msg?
[09:40] <martyn> sorry
[09:40] <Flannel> snowman: Thats fine, you can shrink ext3 no problem, you'll just need a liveCD to do it (can't change active partitions)
[09:40] <Curley_Sue> hi all, does anyone knows how can I test an M$ EXCEL add-in in OO calc or gnumeric?
[09:40] <chiper>   - ? Are there anybody, who speak Russian?
[09:40] <kitche> bobrik: for ubuntu only if it's upstream bug then you have to report it to the upstream developer yourself
[09:40] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: Not a problem.. get a livecd of your current version if you dont have one handy, and or gparted livecd
[09:41] <snowman> Flannel: knoppix + qtparted?
[09:41] <Flannel> bobrik: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support, And launchpad is what it's good for.
[09:41] <Flannel> snowman: or Ubuntu Desktop CD
[09:41] <techII> anyone know of any information about reducing power usage on an amd laptop?
[09:41] <snowman> I tried that, it doesn't have the "resize" option active for /dev/hda1
[09:41] <sykopomp> question: is there any way to enable thumbnail/preview support in the gtk file chooser app? (the one that comes up when some program asks you to choose a file)
[09:41] <techII> i have been looking but havent found anything
[09:41] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: You have to unmount it
[09:41] <Flannel> snowman: Alright, well, use whatever you're comfortable with, it really doesn't matter.
[09:41] <bobrik> Flannel, kitche: OK
[09:41] <techII> !laptop
[09:41] <ubotu> Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org
[09:42] <techII> !power
[09:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about power - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:42] <moldy> hi
[09:42] <Flannel> bobrik: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support, And launchpad is what it's good for, launchpad will report it upstream if it's an upstream bug, or you're welcome to do it as well (and then put that in your LP bug report)
[09:42] <snowman> ideally, I'd rather use wine, but it won't run in that.
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: What are you trying to run win app?
[09:42] <moldy> i cannot login to openldap using SASL... the log sais that /etc/sasldb2 is missing -- how do i properly fix this?
[09:42] <bobrik> Flannel: now I see
[09:43] <snowman> Jack_Sparrow: proprietary app for programming commercial fire, access control and security panels.
[09:43] <WeeJeWel> is it possible to have 2 wifi connections with one adapter w/o vmware?
[09:43] <Flannel> bobrik: Ideally, (the point of LP) is that reporting to LP would also report it to gnome/etc/anyone/everyone else.  But it's not to that point yet
[09:43] <snowman> _VERY_ picky program.
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: I retired from Simplex.. doing just that
[09:43] <martyn> sorry again i'v added it to the paste bin
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: Yes, they are very fussy
[09:44] <techII> WeeJeWel: I know it is possible, no idea how
[09:44] <techII> probably depends on the hardware
[09:44] <WeeJeWel> :-)
[09:44] <sykopomp> anyone know anything about gtk file chooser? like how to enable previews for files? It works when choosing a desktop background, but not anywhere else :(
[09:44] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: Even window running some of those old apps wouldnt work, had to be a SLOW machine
[09:44] <techII> openwrt does it for some routers
[09:44] <WeeJeWel> any idea for xp either?
[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: So , do you have a live cd handy? WHich one?
[09:45] <reya276> is there an IRC room for OpenOffice?
[09:45] <techII> ?
[09:46] <Flannel> reya276: #openoffice is one, may or may not be the official one
[09:46] <reya276> ok thanks
[09:46] <kitche> reya276: their official channel has a very logn name
[09:47] <kitche> reya276: #users.openoffice.org
[09:47] <pivs> hello friends
[09:47] <Flannel> #users.openoffice.org?
[09:47] <meoblast001> flannel: i have the option in my settings VST folder but i dont know how to open VST instruments and i dont have vestige in my plugins
[09:47] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::pivs::] => hi
[09:47] <techII> #Openoffice.org
[09:47] <Jack_Sparrow> snowman: Did we scare you off?
[09:47] <techII> http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IRC_Communication
[09:48] <rhollan> I remember there being a "gotcha" with drm/dri when upgrading the kernel, but can't find the URL that describes it. Anyone know?
[09:48] <reya276> thanks guys
[09:48] <orbisvicis> !peap
[09:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about peap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:48] <orbisvicis> !mschap
[09:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mschap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:49] <rhollan> feisty already has a kernel upgrade but when installed it breaks glx. Anyone know the fix? I expect a new kernel module has to be installed for dri/drm
[09:50] <techII> rhollan: try reinstalling the drivers for your card (if it is ati or nvidia)?
[09:50] <pivs> good bye friends :)
[09:50] <techII> *did you try?
[09:50] <rhollan> neither: VIA unichrome
[09:52] <rhollan> VIA unichrome DRI is supported out of the box from the feisty installation, so short of recompiling the necessary kernel modules I don't know if any repo might have them.
[09:52] <DeaD_RaVeN> cant
[09:52] <BuddyCarlyle> Is iptables set up to use when the OS is installed or is there tweaking to do?
[09:52] <kitche> BuddyCarlyle: just need to mak some rules for it
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> BuddyCarlyle: tables are fine as installed
[09:52] <techII> the modules for your card might not be installed with the modules for the kernel you updated to
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> BuddyCarlyle: Only need to change if you want to open some up
[09:53] <BuddyCarlyle> great two differing opinions
[09:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall
[09:53] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[09:53] <Meta4ical> Hi all, i'd like to install Ubuntu 7.04 on my machine but have had issues in the past with my graphics card and mouse acting up before or during the installation process, i was wondering if anyone could help guide me in using the correct boot options etc
[09:53] <techII> no idea if it needs to be recompiled
[09:53] <rhollan> techII: obviously. But where to find them. I suspect it might simply be an issue of not installing the updated kernel modules.
[09:53] <rhollan> I might have better luck in #unichrome
[09:53] <Jack_Sparrow> BuddyCarlyle: You can go to grc.com and have them scan your ports to make you feel better
[09:53] <techII> probably
[09:53] <BuddyCarlyle> I'm a single user here so it's probably no biggie.
[09:54] <BuddyCarlyle> might do that Jack, thanks
[09:54] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[09:54] <Curley_Sue> Meta4ical: have you tried the livecd? maybe it is sorted out...
[09:54] <Ashfire908> is there a driver for motorola v3c? and can the driver allow me to connect to the internet in packet data mode?
[09:54] <chalcedony> can someone explain for me the difference beteween desktop and server ?
[09:55] <Meta4ical> Curley_Sue: Yes I did, I recieved one by mail which was an earlier version, and I tried the more recent 7.04 after release.
[09:55] <techII> Ashfire908: I tried with a v325, still haven't found anything yet, but i haven't spent that much time looking
[09:55] <Meta4ical> The desktop as soon as I bootup is on an akward resolution, so when I try to install ubuntu the bottom of the installer is chopped off and i can't see my options
[09:55] <Curley_Sue> Meta4ical: and you still had problems..?
[09:55] <techII> chalcedony: the install disks?
[09:55] <fevel> how do I find out the total time i have been logged in??
[09:55] <chalcedony> techII: yes
[09:56] <Meta4ical> Curley_Sue: Yes, the setup seemed to get to different parts everytime I booted the cd.
[09:56] <curare> fevel:  uptime
[09:56] <martyn> sorry about the pasting, i've pasted it to the bin, is it possible to edit my shell setup file as it asks? thanks
[09:56] <meoblast001> any LMMS users???
[09:56] <fevel> thank you curare
[09:57] <techII> chalcedony: the desktop disk includes packages relating to the desktop (gnome, etc), the server disk doesn't, but has options to install a LAMPS stack
[09:57] <Meta4ical> curley_sue: I'm also extremely confused about what drivers (if any) I need for my card, because by default it does not work well
[09:57] <nextse7en> Can someone recommend a good channel for web help? Specifically how to ssh into my web hosting service virtual server, and how to create a static html landing page for a wordpress blog?
[09:57] <chalcedony> techII: ty much :)
[09:57] <Curley_Sue> Meta4ical: sorry, don't have exprience with this type of difficulties...
 #web
[09:57] <nextse7en> Thanks.
[09:57] <Meta4ical> ;p
[09:58] <curare> fevel: but this is just the uptime of your current session. not all sessions since you installed linux ^^
[09:58] <Meta4ical> Curley_Sue: Do you know which would be better to run, x86 or 64bit version of ubuntu?
[09:58] <IdNotFound> !nvidia
[09:58] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[09:59] <techII> im running 64, but there are issues
[10:00] <reinis> DESU DESU
[10:00] <defcon> lame
[10:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Meta4ical: 32 Bit will work fine
[10:00] <defcon> +l it
[10:00] <scotty> what the heck?
[10:00] <kb0rpj-wx> does the server version come with a GUI or only the desktop?
[10:00] <techII> i would use 32, unless there is some reason you need 64
[10:00] <fevel> sh*t
[10:00] <techII> flash player doesn't work under 64, unless you do some work
[10:00] <kitche> !language | fevel
[10:00] <ubotu> fevel: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:00] <fevel> sorry
[10:01] <fevel> was that a cracker ?
[10:01] <techII> hopefully will change with nspluginwrapper (in gutsy)
[10:01] <scotty> What the heck was with that? Like, 30 people sent me a CTCP Request
[10:01] <fevel> nice going op stopped the atack :)
[10:01] <njan> scotty, flood bots.
[10:01] <curare> script kiddie
[10:01] <techII> i would ignore the pms
[10:02] <techII> i think someone just sent everyone /msg s
[10:02] <kkathman> script kiddies with no life obviously
[10:02] <BuddyCarlyle> I'm guessing he would have to register every one of his clones to get the message through.
[10:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Microsoft is getting desperate
[10:02] <kkathman> it wasnt a /msg  it was a CTCP
[10:02] <scotty> I got a CTCP Version request, not a /msg
[10:03] <Ashfire908> they had hit #wikipedia before they hit here
[10:03] <kb0rpj-wx> heres my problem.. i'm a new user to linux in any form.. someone said to try ubuntu and try it.. trying to figure out if i should install desktop or server.. i want to be able to run eggdrop and apache.. but i'd still like a GUI.. so which is best?
[10:03] <Meta4ical> Ok I'll go with 32bit
[10:03] <kitche> kb0rpj-wx: desktop then install waht you need later
[10:03] <fevel> why would one need to drop bots?
[10:04] <fevel> \0/
[10:04] <vox754> kb0rpj-wx, every linux desktop is essentially a server. The transition is easy.
[10:04] <kb0rpj-wx>  kitche : ok i'll try desktop. thanks
[10:04] <BuddyCarlyle> hmm, I didn't know the network allowed ctcp requests from outsiders.  I guess I didn't think the process through.
[10:04] <aioobe> I have the weirdest problem: I can not ssh to localhost. I can ssh to the machine from another host, but not from the host itself.
[10:05] <tupa> what's the best blogging system to be used with apache???
[10:05] <aioobe> I have checked netstat and I think it looks ok.
[10:05] <techII> aioobe: possibly sshd listening on only one interface?
[10:05] <khelll> how can i define a proxy to update ubuntu
[10:06] <aioobe> techII: how do I check that?
[10:06] <techII> i would check /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[10:06] <Ashfire908> where can i find drivers
[10:06] <techII> Ashfire908: for what?
[10:06] <aioobe> techII: no ListenAddress there
[10:06] <techII> no idea then
[10:06] <aioobe> (both default lines commented out)
[10:06] <aioobe> :/
[10:07] <Ashfire908> a motorola v3c
[10:07] <aioobe> techII: you have any netstat command I could run?
[10:07] <dutch> hey all
[10:07] <int21h> i edit my rc.local to automatically start my program but after i rebooted my system its not working, is rc.local is disable?
[10:08] <khelll> how can i define a proxy for the update manager
[10:08] <Ashfire908> cause i connect to the internet through my motorola v3c, and i only can get it to work on windows right now
[10:08] <dutch> if i have gij installed, but i want to use the sun-java6-sdk, how do i tell my system to use it instead of gij?
[10:08] <dutch> i have both installed
[10:08] <WaxyFresh> whats a good program for amkeing DVD with menus?
[10:08] <techII> Ashfire908: i feel your pain
[10:09] <BuddyCarlyle> Jack_Sparrow, newb here;  is it possible to have my single user connection masquerade?
[10:09] <randoman> hey guys if you type 'chroot /chrootdir /usr/sbin/apachectl start" and it loads into the background as "/usr/sbin/apache" that means its not chrooted right?
[10:09] <chalcedony> my friend wants to make his box a dual boot, with ubuntu, is it going to install ok as a dual-boot? what does he need to do?
[10:09] <int21h> i edited my rc.local to automatically start my program but after i rebooted my system its not working, is rc.local is disable?
[10:10] <randoman> chalcedony should have no porblems
[10:10] <kitche> int21h: no but is this program a graphical one or not?
[10:10] <randoman> just install windows first, then ubuntu is the easiest
[10:10] <buntpunt> hey, I need some help... I'm on a laptop with a mobility radeon card, and whenever I try to install the restricted ATi drivers, the box refuses to stay checked off (it doesn't start up synaptic either) any ideas?
[10:10] <randoman> that way ubuntu finds the windows install while seting up dual boot duing install
[10:10] <Ashfire908> techII, you use a cell phone to connect to the internet?
 graphical
[10:11] <techII> I have in the past
[10:11] <ice_cream> tbh, my need for both windows and linux rose; considering buying a new box to have one permanently linux and the other perm. windows...
[10:11] <kitche> int21h: then rc.local won't help you with that anyways
[10:11] <vox754> chalcedony, he needs to repartition the hard drive so he can have unallocated space which can be used with Ubuntu. Another alternative is to try Ubuntu first on a Virtual Machine from within Windows XP.
[10:11] <randoman> so anyone have any ideas to my question?
[10:11] <Ashfire908> you ever get it to work with ubuntu?
[10:11] <ice_cream> dualboot is fun at first, but..
[10:11] <randoman> hey guys if you type 'chroot /chrootdir /usr/sbin/apachectl start" and it loads into the background as "/usr/sbin/apache" that means its not chrooted right?
[10:11] <buntpunt> any ideas on the ati drivers? anyone?
 i want to run the gkrellm automatically
 any solution?
[10:12] <xstasi> randoman, to check if it's chrooted
[10:12] <WaxyFresh> !dvd
[10:12] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:12] <xstasi> take a look at -> ls -l /proc/pid
[10:12] <xstasi> to what does "root" point
[10:12] <randoman> k
[10:12] <kitche> int21h: when you logout of gnome or whatever your using have it save your session
[10:12] <john_doe> would you recommend an application for unpacking/mounting .aad files? I have tried google but anly seen software that is not a part of the default apt sources.
[10:12] <Burlynn> is there anything like a floating trashcan icon for gnome for the desktop? ive seen some for karamba in kde, anything for gnome?
[10:12] <WaxyFresh> whats a good program for makeing your own dvd with a menu for chooseing chapters/video files?
[10:12] <ice_cream> speaking of gkrellm--  a) has anyone found a truly transparent skin (including borders) or b) has a good alternative idea?
[10:12] <jimmygoon> Can someone recommend a GUI for or an alternative to TrueCrypt?
[10:12] <randoman> humm it doesnt like that command
 nope its not
[10:13] <xstasi> randoman, of course, change "pid" to apache's pid
[10:13] <anthony_> Hi, is it possible to make the gnome panels not "always on top".  Thank you
[10:13] <techII> Burlynn: one that stays on top of windows, or one on the desktop?
[10:13] <randoman> ahhh :P
[10:13] <randoman> thanks
[10:13] <Burlynn> techII, just the desktop
[10:13] <randoman> duch
[10:13] <randoman> duh
[10:13] <WaxyFresh> jimmygoon: if someone tells you can you let me know?
[10:13] <BuddyCarlyle> I guess not,  alrighty I'm outta here.
[10:13] <techII> !trash
[10:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about trash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
 how?
[10:13] <techII> !list trash
[10:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about list trash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:13] <WaxyFresh> jimmygoon: ive been looking for one also
[10:13] <jimmygoon> WaxyFresh, sure
[10:13] <Ashfire908> techII, you ever get it to work with ubuntu?
[10:14] <randoman> should it look like this
[10:14] <randoman> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2007-07-29 13:13 exe -> /chroot/usr/sbin/apache
[10:14] <techII> no
[10:14] <xstasi> randoman, not that field
[10:14] <randoman> what do i need to look for
[10:14] <thr-> when trying to scan for any wireless connection i get this msg: wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning.
[10:14] <xstasi> randoman, "root"
[10:14] <aioobe> techII: Hi... it turns out that I can't even ping localhost (I can ping it from another machine though) any ideas?!?
[10:14] <techII> no
[10:14] <randoman> so this
[10:14] <randoman> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2007-07-29 13:13 root -> /chroot
[10:15] <xstasi> randoman, exact
[10:15] <xstasi> congratulations, your apache is jailed
[10:15] <randoman> so its chrooted
[10:15] <randoman> nice
[10:15] <jimmygoon> I could fashion one using gnupg + gui + some sort of archive/folder/drive thing
[10:15] <randoman> sweet thanks
[10:15] <curare> aioobe: you tried to ping 127.0.0.1 ?
[10:15] <randoman> see im confused, last night it loaded as /chroot/usr/sbin/apache when typing ps aux | grep apache
[10:15] <aioobe> yep
[10:15] <randoman> but now it loads as /usr/sbin/apache
[10:15] <randoman> oh well if its jailed im happy
[10:16] <curare> aioobe: what exactly did you do ? "ping localhost" or "ping 127.0.0.1"
[10:16] <jimmygoon> WaxyFresh, there appears to be something called forcefield
[10:16] <techII> does any self-help wizard for ubuntu exist?
[10:16] <randoman> thanks man, i appricate it
[10:16] <aioobe> both... none work.. according to /ets/hosts they are the same anyway
[10:16] <curare> yes they are the same, but just wanted to make sure  ^^
[10:16] <Lilacor> i'm very confused, my sound works fine under flash but when I try to open another file...say music, I get an error telling me that I should install a sound server... sound was working fine until this week... I don't understand
[10:16] <aioobe> heh.. any ideas? this is so weird
[10:17] <BENN92647> WOO!
[10:17] <BENN92647> LINUX RULES!!!!
[10:17] <Happu> whatever
[10:17] <egoleo> is anyone installed exim4 b4
[10:17] <randoman> well that was a damn good learning experince. I think i can chroot anything now
[10:17] <randoman> :P
[10:18] <BENN92647> f'ing wondows wouldnt even connect to my verizon internet...2 minutes and some command line prompts and BAM! im up in LINUX
[10:18] <techII> Burlynn, pres alt-F2, then type "gconf-editor" and hit enter
[10:18] <kitche> randoman: not sure if it works on the newer kernels but jail4 linux is good
[10:18] <Meyvn> hello all, i have uninstalled an application, but the link in the applications menu is still there, how can I remove that? I tried doing a file search for the app in question but couldn't find anything related to a menu item or desktop
[10:18] <curare> aioobe: try    "sudo ifconfig lo0 up"
[10:18] <curare> without quotation marks
[10:18] <randoman> i better remember ls -l  /proc/pid
[10:18] <lufis> Meyvn: right click on the applications button and click "edit menu"
[10:18] <randoman> for sure, ill check it out
[10:18] <BENN92647> I need a WoW person to run me thru setting WoW with wine please
[10:18] <aioobe> curare: no such device
[10:18] <curare> oO
[10:18] <lnxkde> guys
[10:18] <jimmygoon> WaxyFresh, forcefield appears to be decent
[10:18] <techII> Burlynn, then go under apps, then nautilus
[10:18] <aioobe> "lo" worked though
[10:18] <Meyvn> lufis: thanks!
[10:18] <d4rkmonkey> BENN92647, check the wine app database to make sure it will work first
[10:18] <aioobe> ping localhost works now
[10:19] <curare> ;)
[10:19] <lwizardl> Hi
[10:19] <jimmygoon> now, can anyone recommend which encryption to use with my truecrypt volume?
[10:19] <aioobe> ssh localhost aswell
[10:19] <curare> :P
[10:19] <lufis> Meyvn: although uninstallation should remove it automagically...
[10:19] <curare> k problem solved ^^
[10:19] <Lilacor> jimmygoon: blowfish
[10:19] <jimmygoon> Lilacor, thanks
[10:19] <techII> Burlynn, then desktop, after that, check the "trash_icon_visible" key

[10:19] <BENN92647> *d4rkmonkey yeah alot of people are playing WoW on linux
[10:19] <dutch> BENN92647: just plug it in, and run the installer with latest wine
[10:19] <Meyvn> lufis: yes, it's now not shown in the application list, but somehow the link to the app is still there
[10:20] <lufis> Meyvn: oh
[10:20] <Lilacor> jimmygoon: that's up to you
[10:20] <d4rkmonkey> BENN92647, ok, I'm not sure but there might be some help http://appdb.winehq.org/appbrowse.php it might just be running the installk file in wine
[10:20] <jimmygoon> Lilacor, aight, thanks

[10:21] <barata> hey! anybody uses AMD 64 Turion?
[10:21] <lufis> :o

 Yes that includes directions for Fiesty install ;p
[10:21] <barata> how does that work with Ubuntu 64?

[10:22] <Ashfire908> haha! CTCP is OFF
[10:22] <njan> nixternal, beat you to it :)
[10:22] <nixternal> haha
[10:22] <nixternal> my script froze for a second
[10:22] <nixternal> you got it njan :)
 It's easier for you to follow a general guide, ask questions about things you don't understand and let people guide you threw
[10:22] <jimmygoon> lol
[10:22] <PriceChild> ty njan
[10:22] <jimmygoon> well, that was the most exciting thing that happened in the last five minutes
[10:22] <Meta4ical> as opposed to someone practically doing it for you
[10:22] <aroo> wtf was that
[10:22] <njan> PriceChild, np.
[10:22] <crimsun> I bet you it was Rich booting Vista again.
[10:22] <Myrtti> huhhhh
[10:23] <aroo> i got version spammed
[10:23] <crimsun> just blame nixternal for good measure.
[10:23] <phoenixz> Hi there, I am using firefox on linux (kubuntu) What plugin could I use to see PDF files in firefox? I don't want to use adobe reader because that one is slow as hell
[10:23] <Ashfire908> all the bots's nicks were "lulz*
[10:23] <nixternal> muhahaha
[10:24] <Meyvn> what is CTCP? :)
[10:24] <lufis> When I open up a port in firestarter, that's allowing anyone to access anything through that port, correct?
[10:24] <Happu> lufis: if you allow it to anyone
[10:24] <lufis> Happu: does that pose a security risk?
[10:24] <Catsceo> test
[10:24] <Meyvn> lufis: i figured it out, thanks
[10:24] <Catsceo> yay
[10:24] <curare> test successful ;)
[10:24] <lufis> Meyvn: no prob
[10:24] <Ifreeze> phoenixz, i use evince..
[10:24] <mikl> can't someone block channel-wide CTCP's?
[10:24] <Happu> lufis: not likely, it depends what services are you running
[10:25] <lufis> ah
[10:25] <scotty> Fricking floodbots -_-
[10:25] <Happu> lufis: but you shouldn't open ports for fun, just if you need to open it
[10:25] <Meyvn> i wonder why i didn't get kicked
[10:25] <khelll> how can i define a proxy for the update manager
[10:25] <phoenixz> Ifreeze, That one works within firefox too?
[10:25] <lufis> Happu: of course not ;) that's not how i spend my weekends
[10:25] <khelll> ?/

[10:25] <Le_F0u> small question..nofin to do with ubuntu..how can i download all files on a repository?im currently downloading one by one..
[10:26] <Meta4ical> Can anyone have <DeaD_RaVeN> kicked or removed, he is constantly harassing me with the most annoying and vulgar messages
[10:26] <Ifreeze> phoenixz, i see the pdf file i click on the link and it ask save or open with pdf reader..
[10:26] <rechercher> for fglrx do i need to downgrade my kernel?
[10:26] <curare> Le_F0u: what kind of repository ?
[10:26] <vox754> Meta4ical, you may contact one of the operators
[10:26] <lufis> Happu: well sometimes irc is very slow and i wanted to see if opening the irc port would help at all (i know it's connecting to a remote machine but you never know?) and plus various bittorrent ports need to be opened for dht, etc.
[10:26] <rechercher> apparently ati's fglrx doesnt support 2.6.20 yet
[10:27] <Le_F0u> curare from the hyperion svn repository
[10:27] <Ifreeze> phoenixz, http://www.gnome.org/projects/evince/
[10:27] <techII> that guy seems to be smaping everyone
[10:27] <Meta4ical> techII: who?
[10:27] <techII> dead raven
[10:27] <techII> *spaming
[10:27] <Happu> lufis: well bittorrents are safe to open IMO. Not sure about all the irc ports. As long as you aren't using irc as root, you should not have to worry :)
[10:27] <lufis> Happu: ok, thanks :)
[10:27] <curare> Le_F0u: svn checkout URL... [PATH] 
[10:28] <kitche> techII: not hard to just ignore him like I did
[10:28] <Happu> lufis: np :)
[10:28] <Le_F0u> ok ill try curare
[10:28] <techII> yes, and don't respond to him (for everyone else)
[10:28] <vox754> kitche, techII still, if he is in the Ubuntu channel, he should follow the code of conduct or else. Call the ops.
[10:29] <kitche> vox754: ops can't do much to someone pming you
[10:29] <PriceChild> techII, kitche vox754 is this a join on spammer kind of thing?
[10:29] <curare> this evening sucks =( i managed to damage my os x installation =(
[10:29] <Le_F0u> curare can i pm u?
[10:29] <kitche> PriceChild: he's been in here before the spamming but probably one of them
[10:29] <curare> sure
[10:29] <Le_F0u> thx

[10:37] <djgop> I get no volume control gstreamer plugins
[10:37] <djgop> how do I tell which I have
[10:37] <djgop> I am unsure
[10:37] <BlackBeltCeb> did you ever run windows on your pc?
[10:37] <techII> Ashfire908: note that the settings are probably different for different phones
[10:37] <strav_> hi! out of curiosity I've recently been comparing different server's architectures for enterprise installations (mainly, NT, linux kernel 2.6.x, open solaris, bsds, beos and such) and was kinda disturbed by the lack of any rather objective and up-to-date benchmarks measuring the "low-level"-kernel-related system calls. While we could argue that raw performance is only on side of the medal, I think a site dedicated to provide such benchmarks
[10:37] <djgop> I see platform device
[10:37] <snipex> i have currently got dapper ubuntu installed and i got ISO img of kubuntu feisty, is it possible to make update ?
[10:38] <crimsun> strav_: google for systemtap
[10:38] <crimsun> strav_: start there and spider out for syscall evals.
[10:38] <strav_> encourage collaboration as well as competition amongst OSs, I wonder why such a thing cannot be found?
[10:38] <strav_> crimsun: thanks, was pretty shure I didn't searched well enough
[10:39] <djgop> msg nickserv identify 23jd23

[10:39] <techII> heh
[10:39] <PriceChild> djgop, use the server tab when typing your password.
[10:39] <djgop> I made a mistake PriceChild
[10:40] <djgop> sorry
[10:40] <BlackBeltCeb> what virus?
[10:40] <PriceChild> djgop, don't be sorry to me... you just told everyone your password ;)
[10:40] <curare> strav_: you could also do a benchmark using openssl speed test ;)
[10:40] <Anlar> djgop: PriceChild NEVER forgives! :)
[10:41] <techII> im surprised that one of the scriptkiddies hasn't tried to ghost your account yet
[10:41] <Anlar> strav_: you are quite correct on that one, they do not seem to exist. and I doubt any ported tests really do any good since those ports are generally shoddy.
[10:41] <eboyjr> How can I mount a vdi file ("/root/.VirtualBox/VDI/Windows XP Pro.vdi") to "/vwin"?
[10:42] <shelia_> I want to download Frostwire in my computer, but I am not sure how to do this I am new to ubuntu. Can anyone help?
[10:42] <BENN92647> WOO!!!!
[10:42] <djgop> how do I tell what sound card I have
[10:42] <PriceChild> !frostwire | shelia_
[10:42] <ubotu> shelia_: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[10:42] <strav_> curare: I have a set of pretty light C libs to perform these tests (the ones used by a guy 2003) that I would compile and run on different systems still, I hardly believe it isn't done on a daily basis by some ppl.
[10:42] <fyrestrtr> is there a native bittorrent client that has scheduling (like utorrent?)
[10:42] <BENN92647> ok no more of that
[10:42] <d4rkmonkey> shelia_, its really easy, I think frostwire might even have a .deb available
[10:42] <shelia_> deb?
[10:42] <Anlar> djgop: cat /proc/asound/cards
[10:43] <d4rkmonkey> shelia_, one second, I'll give you more direct help
[10:43] <andrew__> anyone have any idea why windows disappear when i minimize them? IE they dont show up in the panel
[10:43] <PriceChild> shelia_, please read the instructions from the guide ubotu gave you
[10:43] <Anlar> strav_: what libs and tests?
[10:43] <techII> sheila_, go to frostwire.com, and follow through to get the download
[10:43] <PriceChild> d4rkmonkey, I have given shelia_ the official ubuntu documentation on frostwire
[10:43] <curare> strav_: ok, openssl benchmarks are kinda heavy weight :)
[10:43] <Silva> Hi, Whats the name of the file I need to edit to fix my resolution? and whats the command to edit it please? :)
[10:43] <Pici> andrew__: Do you have the window list applet on the panel?
[10:43] <PriceChild> !fixre | Silva
[10:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fixre - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:43] <techII> then double click on it
[10:43] <__david> hello, I'm having a really savage problem: my f_ keys won't work when I hold other modifiers down.  I.E. alt-f4, shift-f9...none of them work!  What could be the problem?
[10:43] <PriceChild> !fixres | Silva
[10:43] <ubotu> Silva: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:43] <strav_> Anlar, I've glanced at the methodology done by this guy: http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/
[10:43] <d4rkmonkey> PriceChild, ok then, didn't notice that was gonna send him to actual frostwire site which has a Ubuntu download on the main page
[10:43] <shelia_> thank you pricechild
[10:43] <Silva> PriceChild: ty
[10:44] <techII> shelia_, though the official guide probably has information about setting up repositories (automatic updates)
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> __david: what keymap are you using?
[10:44] <andrew__> Pici, nope, that fixed it
[10:44] <djgop> when i do that command cat /proc/asound/cards
[10:44] <djgop> nothing show up
[10:44] <__david> dvorak, at the moment
[10:44] <andrew__> thanks, its my little brother's machine, dunno why he removed that
[10:44] <djgop> thiern o dir
[10:44] <djgop> cat: /proc/asound/cards: No such file or directory
[10:44] <PriceChild> d4rkmonkey, that guide does the same, but has several "if you see this, fix it by..." things
[10:44] <pirving> has anybody still not tried berl?
[10:44] <pirving> beryl
[10:44] <PriceChild> pirving, #ubuntu-effects
[10:44] <d4rkmonkey> PriceChild, yeah, community docs are generally better, just didn't notice that you gave him the link :)
[10:44] <PriceChild> d4rkmonkey, its all good :)
[10:45] <BlackBeltCeb> I tried beryl, it made me dizzy
[10:45] <andrew__> i was just about to ask about beryl... i understand its not being developed anymore, what should i install instead?
[10:45] <__david> fyrestrtr: i've been switching keymaps a lot the past week..I have dvorak now, but i've used english and turkish too
[10:45] <strav_> Anlar, and it seems pretty fair. the libs he used  are design to make simple syscalls while not creating some overhead by themselves.
[10:45] <techII> compiz-fusion replaced beyrl and compiz
[10:45] <__david> fyrestrtr: also, sometimes "alt" seems to get stuck
[10:45] <concept10> is there an official ubuntu windows installer (not wubi)
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> andrew__: compizfusion, but please #ubuntu-effects
[10:45] <urie1> hey question
[10:45] <Pici> concept10: Nope.
[10:45] <techII> it is supposed to be in gutsy
[10:45] <eboyjr> How can I mount a vdi file ("/root/.VirtualBox/VDI/Windows XP Pro.vdi") to "/vwin"? Is it even possible?
[10:45] <PriceChild> andrew__, feisty comes with compiz, system > preferences > desktop effects, but please ask in #ubuntu-effects
[10:45] <pirving> well, it's latest incarnation is good at hiding stuff from your boss
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> __david: stuck? like it won't toggle?
[10:45] <pirving> and wiggle windows
[10:45] <PriceChild> concept10, no
[10:45] <djgop> I get this error
[10:45] <djgop> alsamixer
[10:45] <djgop> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[10:45] <concept10> PriceChild: so wubi is the only one?
[10:46] <__david> fyrestrtr: i.e. I hit alt-drag to move a window, and then alt doesn't release when I release the key.  I have to hit alt again to register the keyrelease
[10:46] <__david> .
[10:46] <PriceChild> concept10, yes, and it is not officially supported. I strongly advise you install the "real way"... /msg ubotu install
[10:46] <Anlar> strav_: fork umm.. I don't know about that one.. but I guess you could test that out, you'd just for all fairness have to use the direct windows api calls instead of some posix layer or cygwin for everything.. and visual studio for compiling
[10:46] <concept10> PriceChild: the official installers will not boot my system
[10:46] <strav_> Anlar, (sorry my friend spilled some sprite on my keyboard and until replacement, I'll be typing quite slow)
[10:46] <urie1> when i run beryl and want to move to the terminal with alt+ctrl+f1 and than i do alt+ctrl+f7 i can return and  all i see is a black screen and my mouse and that it
[10:46] <urie1> how can i fix it ?
[10:46] <PriceChild> concept10, none of them?
[10:47] <fyrestrtr> __david: there is an option in keyboard settings (somewhere, can't recall now) that makes the alt, super, ctrl keys 'sticky' -- maybe you enabled that by mistake?
[10:47] <Denon_> hi all, im trying to control my cpu fan via pwnconfig and fancontrol. when i run pwnconfig it runs through a range of fan settings from 3000 to 600, my problem is even if i set my config file the slowest i can get my fans to run at is 2000
[10:47] <Pici> urie1: #ubuntu-effects for compiz issues pleaes.
[10:47] <kitche> strav_: just unplug the keyboard wash it with water and let it dry for 24hours
[10:47] <PriceChild> concept10, the alternate installer should boot whatever...
[10:47] <Anlar> strav_: but if that was done, that'd be something yeah.
[10:47] <KIO> hi! new in here, i need a little help with steam
[10:47] <WaxyFresh> whats a good program for makeing dvd?i need one that will allow me to create a menu for choseing difrent visdoe files?
[10:48] <__david> fyrestrtr: I have all the defaults in the keyboard preferences, and that still doesn't explain why alt-f4 doesn't work
[10:48] <concept10> PriceChild: I guess I should try alternative again, the regular install has issues with my nvidia card and motherboard intell p965 sata chipset
[10:48] <strav_> Anlar, of course, I'll be natively compiling those on each target arch... and indeed they might now apply correctly on windows. But really, such stats haven't seen the light since 2003 at best?
[10:48] <fyrestrtr> __david: you got me.
[10:48] <PriceChild> concept10, if the alternate installer has "issues"... wubi is going to be a no hope on trying to troubleshoot
[10:48] <Anlar> strav_: most of the tests I have seen in last couple years have been synthetic and have measured something the very high level applications do.. like serving web pages etc..
[10:49] <] RandoM[> anybody familiar with this: i have deluge-torrent installed.. when i try to double click on a torrent file i downloaded or try to open it directly in firefox deluge opens and doesn't actually load the torrent.. i have to open deluge and click 'add' and find the torrent on my local machine to open it.. i had it installed before and i didn't have to do this..
[10:49] <Das> Hello, all. If you could take a look at this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3101211#post3101211  it'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your expertise
[10:49] <strav_> kitche, I used a special solvant/oil for electronics that melt the rubber below the keys, I have to replace it now ;)
[10:49] <__david> fyrestrtr: the same problem happens with my other window managers
[10:49] <eboyjr> How can I mount a vdi file ("/root/.VirtualBox/VDI/Windows XP Pro.vdi") to "/vwin"? Is it even possible? I heard something about a fuse layer? What's that?
[10:49] <kitche> strav_: well don't use solvant/oil next time :)
[10:49] <__david> i'm going to try a reboot...maybe that will fix it.  (the first reboot since i got this computre a month ago)
[10:49] <Anlar> strav_: instead of w2k3/xp, taht'd be nice if that was done against Vista Business. (or ultimate) NOT home or home premium, they might not have similar kernel etc.. those home versions are not really meant to be used by anyone
[10:49] <Anlar> strav_: that'd be first
[10:50] <techII> WaxyFresh, i just found something called qdvdauthor in the gutsy repositories, don't know what it does, or if it is in feisty
[10:50] <wousser>  /msg nickserv link wousser winbillk
[10:50] <Anlar> strav_: because I have seen so far NO real good benchmarks of vista. and, I'd like to see one more benchmark actually
[10:50] <vox754> yey wousser free password
[10:50] <PriceChild> wousser, please change your password.
[10:51] <techII> a lot of that today...
[10:51] <Anlar> strav_: something that measures how effectively the OS can delete files randomly. if you test that linux/bsds vs vista, you will get VERY surprising results I promise
[10:51] <strav_> Anlar, yes but I don't care much about high level apps. Let's say I wanna measure the groundings for top-level applications. Of course, enterprise use and end-user use are two different thing and such benchs will have to take this into account.
[10:51] <Leftmost> What application does the basic Ubuntu install use for controlling volume on laptops with volume keys?
[10:52] <Anlar> strav_: yes, the idea is valid and good!
[10:52] <WaxyFresh> y
[10:52] <fyrestrtr> Leftmost: that's a feature of gnome.
[10:52] <WaxyFresh> y
[10:52] <Leftmost> What part of GNOME? I'm not aware of how to configure it on other distros.
[10:52] <Anlar> strav_: if you even take all the handles ready.. say 20 000 files, handles on table.. and just iterate through it and ask for the file to be deleted on lowest possible level.. vista will be some 5x slower than any bsd or linux
[10:53] <vox754> strav_, Anlar isn't that off topic? (It is not support)
[10:53] <fyrestrtr> Leftmost: system > admin > keyboard shortcuts
[10:53] <techII> Leftmost, "gnome-keybinding-properties"
[10:54] <Anlar> strav_: that is a building block mmkay as well :) and it's true, not just measured properly so far
[10:54] <Leftmost> Ahh, alright. Thank you.
[10:54] <weltall> sorry were is libstc++.a?
[10:54] <shelia_> should I save Frostwire to the firefox desktop or GDebi Package, or other?
[10:54] <fyrestrtr> Leftmost: mine were filled in, but ibms have special packages for those
[10:54] <PriceChild> shelia_, gdebi
[10:54] <weltall> i've the dynamic ones but the static?
[10:55] <strav_> Anlar, yes, I've read a study on file systems behaviors and indeed, lots of factors have to be considered (journaled fs vs softupdates and all the optimizations and contexts (raid levels etc))
[10:55] <shelia_> even if it says GDebi Package Installer (default)?
[10:55] <PriceChild> shelia_, do that one
[10:56] <shelia_> ok thnx pricechild I apologize for bein so aggravatin, I am new to this and am tryin to learn it
[10:56] <fyrestrtr> does anyone have recommendations on a bittorrent client that has built-in scheduling (ala utorrent or azureus) but one that is linux-native.
[10:56] <Anlar> strav_: just take something very default from each family. it doesn't matter. one of them will be extraordinaly slow on moving and deleting :)
[10:57] <techII> azureus is java
[10:57] <DavidHKMrPowers> how to remove highlights from a search in vim?
[10:57] <PriceChild> fyrestrtr, azureus works fine on ubuntu...
[10:57] <BENN92647> can someone explain to me why my wireless internet is working but port eth0 is not?
[10:57] <techII> thus cross platform
[10:57] <radoen> hi weltall
[10:57] <Anlar> fyrestrtr: there is a "native" linux version of azureus as well, thanks to the "geniuses" that made gcj, and it just plain sucks.
[10:57] <jimmygoon> What options should I use to mount my volume so that a regular user can write to it
[10:57] <weltall> hi redeon
[10:57] <Curley_Sue> Hi all, does anyone know how to compare two workbooks (of spreadsheets)? (using two identifiers per line, for example)
[10:58] <BENN92647> my fear is that LINUX loves to undo everything you do as soon s you log off
[10:58] <fyrestrtr> PriceChild: i was hoping something like Deluge.
[10:58] <fyrestrtr> but damn it it doesn't have a calendar plugin.
[10:58] <BENN92647> and my wireless is working and i dont want to lose it
[10:58] <DShepherd> fyrestrtr, i dont know if deluge has built-in scheduling but its my favourite bittorent.
[10:58] <shelia_> pricechild it is telling me to use a later version in the software channel what do I do now?
[10:58] <fyrestrtr> DShepherd: it doesn't :(
[10:58] <jimmygoon> BENN92647, what do you mean "undo it"?
[10:58] <fyrestrtr> using it right now.
[10:58] <yosyp> hey guys..
[10:58] <radoen> weltall are you the same weltall that spend all the noght whit the c pointer of a psp program?
[10:59] <DShepherd> fyrestrtr, i am using right now too :-)  sorry though
[10:59] <radoen> *night
[10:59] <weltall> stfu radoen
[10:59] <yosyp> i can't boot ubuntu
[10:59] <yosyp> there's a problem with grub
[10:59] <yosyp> i booted DSL and mounted my root partiton
[10:59] <shelia_> what is a software channel?
[10:59] <BENN92647> *jimmygoon it unmounts my devices and sound all the time...i dont want it to "unmount" my wireless internet conncetion
[10:59] <yosyp> when I try to cd /boot
[10:59] <strav_> Anlar,Aside from those details, my main interest is, in time, as I'm planning to run such bench in order to plan a server/network architecture the best as I can, to publish and perhaps update the results I get as dev goes on... Of course, if and only if I am certain this is not already done so far. (which is mainly why I'm asking... would be stupid that it would have been a lack of googleing)
[10:59] <yosyp> it tells me that it's not a directory
[10:59] <yosyp> wtf?
[10:59] <khatuido> how mount a usb hard disk?
[10:59] <H0trick> hi all
[11:00] <BENN92647> ho hottrick
[11:00] <H0trick> lo
[11:00] <BENN92647> LOL HI!
[11:00] <wastedfluid> Wanted to grab some help if you guys could.  Earlier today, my box w/ ubuntu 6.06LTS's webserver, + ssh no longer worked.. I kept getting a lot of "Buffer space" errors.  Well, now the SSH and webserver are not working again.. any clues at all how to fix this?
[11:00] <kitche> yosyp: are you chrooted in you might be cding to dsl /boot
[11:00] <H0trick> anybody running ubuntu server 7.04?
[11:00] <Anlar> strav_: the bsd's and linuxes etc have been beaten to death. no one has benchmarked the windows on level playfield in years
[11:00] <jimmygoon> BENN92647, mounting is only done to HD's and cameras, etc, not to sound cards or wireless settings, if you are on a live disc then those settings are lost after a reboot, but if you have it installed that can't and shouldn't happen unless you have changed file permissions on the /
[11:00] <fyrestrtr> wastedfluid: how is the disk space?
[11:00] <fyrestrtr> H0trick: I am.
[11:00] <techII> shelia_, ubuntu uses "software channels" or "repositories" to find packages to install (synaptic package manager) and for updates
[11:00] <BENN92647> how do i check that
[11:01] <wastedfluid> fyrestrtr; it's a VPS; 20gb allocated, over 10gb free
[11:01] <H0trick> fyrestrtr : is ssh disabled out of the box?
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> H0trick: yes.
[11:01] <H0trick> i see...
[11:01] <jimmygoon> BENN92647, lets just say that you didn't, because unless you meant to, you didn't :)
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> wastedfluid: 'buffer space' seems to me /tmp is overrun -- or -- memory issues.
[11:01] <H0trick> grrrrr now i have to go to the machine
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> H0trick: apt-get install openssh-server
[11:01] <BENN92647> when i am assigning ports can i do a string of ports by typing 1664-1999?
[11:01] <jimmygoon> BENN92647, if you had, you PC wouldn't even boot....
[11:02] <H0trick> k fyrestrtr and thanks brb
[11:02] <BENN92647> /jimmygoon well i lose sound all the time, that is why i am neverous about the internet
[11:02] <__david> fyrestrtr: A reboot solved it.  It's too bad I don't know the cause, tho
[11:02] <fyrestrtr> so no other option than azureus? that thing runs like molassess.
[11:03] <twosouls82> fyrestrtr:  try deluge
[11:03] <strav_> Anlar, yes they have been tested but I feel there's a lack of updates. If the best comparison (say linux vs bsds) I can get dates from 2003 I think any bsd/linux kernel dev wouldn't care about these. (and of course, yes there's a big gap concerning windows, solaris and some other minorities)
[11:03] <jimmygoon> BENN92647, if you are "losing" sound you are probably muting it or something
[11:03] <__david> fyrestrtr: did you use the azureus from aptitude, or did you download the sun-java one from azureus's website
[11:03] <fyrestrtr> twosouls82: I *am* but it doesn't have a scheduling plugin.
[11:03] <__david> the latter is better, by far
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> __david: I haven't tainted my system with java yet.
[11:04] <__david> fyrestrtr: it's oss now!
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> that doesn't make it any faster.
[11:04] <twosouls82> fyrestrtr: ktorrent has it, and loads more, it is a KDE apps, though :)
[11:04] <__david> fyrestrtr: sun java with azureus is much better. It actually works
[11:04] <BENN92647> *pricechild i copied all the disks in the folder and when i type cd /wowfolder/ it says no such directory?
[11:04] <__david> fyrestrtr: the gcj impl. is kind of weak, imo.  It also lacks many of the impt. plugins.
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> I'll put up with some kde libs than install azureus.
[11:04] <Anlar> strav_: when the linux devs change things they compare subjectively themselves, so they know where they area heading... so, interesting.. but not really for them.
[11:05] <boyam> !dvd

[11:05] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: Looking for bittorrent? Deluge is pretty decent and GNOME-native

[11:05] <twosouls82> ShackJack: :D
[11:05] <BENN92647> I love you Ubotu
[11:05] <__david> fyrestrtr: I don't know what kind of network you're on, but for me, on my college network, azureus's encryption, peerguardian, and dht are impt. to not getting caught.  If that's a concern for you, don't forget it.

[11:06] <Wilbur31337> Hello, all! After using my newly installed Ubuntu for a few days I've started seeing an error message after installing packages with Synaptic. The packages still seem to install fine, but I get "E: mayavi: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127" in a popup after the install scripts run. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
[11:06] <__david> lol
[11:07] <__david> Wilbur31337: that's b/c you tried to install a package that failed to complete installing
[11:07] <BENN92647> ok so now I ned dclarifacation:  in the directions for installing World of Warcraft it says do this cd /<path-to-directory>/  wine Installer.exe
[11:07] <shelia_> thank you techil, I will try that
[11:07] <BENN92647> but it wont work
[11:07] <kang_> hello everyone, just testing
[11:07] <jodih> Hi guys
[11:07] <strav_> Anlar, you think of a place I can ask where I could get help for setting things as most objective as possible? (and yea this isn't planned for the devs (but still could suggest them to look elsewhere)... perhaps giving a good insight on performance could help the end-users (other consideration aside ie.: security, etc) in choosing a system that suits their needs)
[11:07] <Happu> fyrestrtr: running torrent under wine isn't an option?
[11:07] <__david> Wilbur31337: You have a few options.  You can fix the error with the package's installation, or you can remove the package
[11:07] <H0trick> fyrestrtr : thanks! know anything about how i get my resolution higher ?
[11:07] <BENN92647> its easdy
[11:07] <__david> Wilbur31337: the latter is easier. Use this command: "sudo aptitude purge mayavi"
[11:07] <BENN92647> changing res is easy
[11:08] <fyrestrtr> H0trick: are you headless?
[11:08] <Happu> !x / H0trick
[11:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x / h0trick - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:08] <__david> Wilbur31337: the error will then disappear (but mayavi will not be installed)
[11:08] <H0trick> no i am not
[11:08] <d4rkmonkey> !x | H0trick

[11:09] <H0trick> yeah i need a framebuffer
[11:09] <Eltran> hey, is there a Nokia PC Suite alternative for linux ?
[11:09] <Wilbur31337> David, thank you very much for the help.

[11:10] <wastedfluid> what are the ways to try to find out why my openssh server on ubuntu keeps "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
[11:10] <upro> Hi! Someone there to help my with a alsa/timidity problem?

[11:12] <ShackJack> techII: Eh?
[11:12] <techII> or just how to make a new terminal?
[11:12] <Eltran> fyrestrtr : sorry im lagging hard : I want to use it to connect on internet.

[11:12] <nosound> Anyway... I cant troubleshoot this... have tried... help needed... please!!!

[11:12] <fyrestrtr> Eltran: you don't need the suite for that, there are ways to do that from within linux.
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> Eltran: try the forums.
[11:13] <techII> ctrl+a then c to make a new terminal
[11:13] <ShackJack> techII: I think you mean to address Shack?
[11:13] <strav_> hmm. Sounds good so far that I haven't been pointed out to something like benchOs.com and such. I'll keep the idea.
[11:13] <Ashfire908> techII
[11:13] <Eltran> fyrestrtr : what can I do to use it for the internet ?
[11:13] <upro> ShackJack, the defyult is alsa... Anyhow, the main proble is, that I can't use my midi keyboard in zynaddsubfx
[11:13] <Eltran> ok thanks fyrestrtr
[11:13] <strav_> (as I'm tired to type on sticky lousy keyboard)
[11:13] <fyrestrtr> Eltran: you hook it up via bluetooth, then use it as a modem with wvdial
[11:14] <Ashfire908> techII, i followed the instrustions, and it connected, but firefox wouldn't load anything
[11:14] <SoulinEther> where are default configuration files kept for new users when they are created, ie, Xfce or Firefox?
[11:14] <Jaszbo> Can someone tell me of a good client to view web cams with for ubuntu?
[11:14] <ShackJack> upro: Hi - I can't help you, personally, but see tips above for troubleshooting and dedicated #alsa channel...
[11:14] <fyrestrtr> SoulinEther: in ~
[11:14] <strav_> so long and thanks for the concern (anlar)
[11:14] <techII> Ashfire908, same happened to me
[11:14] <ShackJack> SoulinEther: Under their /home dir in various hidden subdirectories...
[11:14] <upro> fyrestrtr, what do you keam? How can i find out on which prt ssh is running?
[11:14] <techII> i think it might have something to do with dns
[11:14] <SoulinEther> ShackJack: no, i mean like /etc/skel
[11:14] <upro> ShackJack, thanks, I'll try #alsa...
[11:15] <techII> but i don't know anything about ppp
[11:15] <fyrestrtr> upro: ssh runs on port 22, but sometimes people run it on non-standard ports to avoid ssh dos style attacks. For example, on my servers ssh runs on 222
[11:15] <eboyjr> What's the difference between gksu|gksudo and su|sudo?
[11:15] <kanuha> need help deleting a directory and file in trash. I created downloaded a file and extracted the files to a directory I created. When no longer needed I deleted the directory with files in it. Now I can't delete it from the trash. It says I don't have permissions.
[11:15] <upro> fyrestrtr, where do I find out which port ssh uses?
[11:15] <eboyjr> I mean whats the difference between su and sudo?
[11:15] <ShackJack> SoulinEther: Dunno, you might have better luck in GNOME or XCFE channel ;)
[11:15] <gnomefreak> !root | eboyjr
[11:15] <ubotu> eboyjr: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:15] <upro> fyrestrtr, /etc/services confirms ssh on port 22...
[11:16] <Pricey> eboyjr, gksudo is for graphical applications
[11:16] <gnomefreak> eboyjr: please read link given by ubotu
[11:16] <klobster> hey how does kubuntu handle runlevels? I have multiuser modes 2-5; which one should I have start kdm?
[11:16] <H0trick> try /etc/sshd_config
[11:16] <klobster> what is the difference between them?
[11:16] <fyrestrtr> eboyjr: su = switch user (gksu is what you use when you have X running). sudo (switch user do) gksudo is the equivalent when you have X running. sudo needs to be installed (its a separate program) while su is standard.
[11:16] <H0trick> it will tell you the port ssh runs on
[11:16] <Ashfire908> techII, you think i shuold do raw ip?
[11:16] <Pricey> eboyjr, it can help prevent problems... see http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo
[11:16] <fyrestrtr> upro: that only tells you what the standard ports are.
[11:16] <fyrestrtr> on my machine, /etc/services also tells me 22 for ssh, but my server runs on 222
[11:17] <Wilbur31337> su switches you into superuser mode to run commands, sudo just runs the command with superuser rights.
[11:17] <radius> how do i get rid of this error in the middle of my upgrade in edgey please - Warning: statoverride couldn't be created for /etc/spampd.conf
[11:17] <H0trick> upro : /etc/sshd_config
[11:17] <upro> fyrestrtr, so where to find this out?
[11:17] <techII> Ashfire908, i don't have a clue, i haven't tried specifying dns servers manually yet
[11:17] <nosound> ShackJack: sorry for multiple lines... but can anyone assist me with this error: http://img142.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotgnomesoundprotf3.png
[11:17] <fyrestrtr> Wilbur31337: actually, su can switch to any user, not just super user.
[11:17] <fyrestrtr> Wilbur31337: if I am root, I can su yourusername
[11:17] <fyrestrtr> Wilbur31337: and if I am fyrestrtr, and I know your password, I can su yourusername
[11:17] <Wilbur31337> fyre, lol, I was just typing that in.  :-D

[11:19] <radius> where are the experts with advice
[11:20] <ShackJack> radius: My motto is "let the computer do the work" :)
[11:20] <curare> that's what they're build for ^^
[11:20] <radius> true but where is a human when you need it
[11:20] <techII> KiloByte, some type of network install possibly
[11:20] <ShackJack> radius: No sense in repeating oneself for basic info like that - no "expert advice" required...
[11:21] <radius> guess my question remains unanswered?

[11:21] <radius> and above
[11:21] <radius> quick question, i'm in the middle of an upgrade from breezy to the latest - i have got past dapper upgrade no prob - now i'm upgrading to edgy - and i get a stop error on this ->> statoverride couldn't be created for /var/cache/spampd - any help would be appreciated - thanks
[11:22] <kanuha> help! I deleted a directory with files and now cannot get it out of my trash. It says I don't have permissions.
[11:22] <Jowi> radius, i
[11:22] <fyrestrtr> radius: one guess - that package doesn't exist anymore.
[11:22] <fyrestrtr> radius: try removing it and continuing.
[11:22] <radius> no it's still there
[11:22] <radius> tried that
[11:22] <radius> no go
[11:23] <fyrestrtr> what is that anyway?
[11:23] <radius> spampd
[11:23] <Jowi> radius, i've no luck upgrading multiple versions in one go, especially breezy -> edgy was tough. i needed to remove openoffice and re-install several apps for no reason it seemed.
[11:23] <Tokeiito> good evening. does courier-maildrop packade is with --enable-mysql option?
[11:23] <radius> this is a server
[11:23] <radius> i did breezy to dapper - that worked fine
[11:23] <ShackJack> radius: That's a tough one - I usually do fresh install and have  my home on separate partition so it's a breeze :)
[11:24] <radius> well fresh install is not an option here unfortunately
[11:24] <snowman> ok, I'll bite.  I've got grub back after repartitioning and installing xp, but how do I get xp on that menu?
[11:24] <radius> i checked a few weeks back and as long as i followed the upgrade path there should not be any glitches

[11:25] <KiloByte> help me men i cant run Linux from CD it lags and mouse laggss very muxh its difficutlt to mov it nad i cant eneter to a  desktop
[11:25] <vox754> snowman, there is this utility called "update-grub" or "grub-update" which does the job. You may add the lines yourself, just browse the forums.
[11:25] <fyrestrtr> radius: seems to be a known issue : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spampd/+bug/69595

[11:25] <wousser> kilobyte: use the alternative install cd
[11:26] <Jowi> kitche, at least it exist for feisty
[11:26] <KiloByte> how?
[11:26] <KiloByte> to use it?
[11:26] <snowman> ShackJack: that's what I followed to get here.
[11:26] <techII> KiloByte, download it and burn it to a cd
[11:26] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: what is the specification of the computer you are trying to install on?
[11:26] <snowman> vox754: I'll have a look
[11:26] <techII> fyrestrtr, good idea
[11:26] <kanuha> is there a command in terminal to empty trash?
[11:26] <Myzrael> Ey everyone.
[11:26] <radius> my question more so is can i proceed to next level of upgrade or reboot with this error looming
[11:27] <deathplanter> hi guys, how do i install kde4 on ubuntu?
[11:27] <BENN92647> damn it!
[11:27] <Myzrael> Have a small question. I reinstalled my nvidia drivers.....they work fine now. But hey, my 2d video acceleration is gone. Any idea how that can happen?
[11:27] <kitche> kanuha: cd ~/.trash then rm the file
[11:27] <KiloByte> Pentium III 500Mhz 128 Mb RAM memory HD is 20 Gb and Video Geforce 2 64 MB
[11:27] <Myzrael> 3d acceleration is still there
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> kanuha: cd ~/.Trash && sudo rm -rf .
[11:27] <BENN92647> dont go to wine hq channel they have no clue
[11:27] <wousser> kilobyte: must run fine
[11:27] <ubuntu_> hi gigs
[11:27] <KiloByte> but why do it lags  on logging in>?
[11:27] <curare> does someone know if there's a bonjour implementation for linux ?
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: you need the alternate installer, the livecd will not work on that configuration.
[11:27] <kanuha> kitche, fyrestrtr , thx
[11:27] <techII> !kubuntu
[11:27] <snowman> I think what I have to add is something for hd0,1 (that should be hda1, right?)
[11:27] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[11:27] <atrus> Myzrael: what makes you think the 2d acceleration is gone exactly?
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: read the minimum specs first.
[11:27] <ShackJack> Myzrael: Ummm I don't think so... If you have 3d you have 2d - what makes you think no 3d accell?
[11:27] <BENN92647> someone please help, dont tell me to go read dierctions i follwed all 4 methods and none are working right
[11:27] <techII> no idea about the version
[11:27] <Jowi> KiloByte, 192MB is required for the live cd i believe
[11:28] <wousser> it lags because you are using it from a cd
[11:28] <BENN92647> please just help me instal WoW
[11:28] <curare> WoW ? :D
[11:28] <ShackJack> KiloByte: You'd be better off with Xubuntu :)
[11:28] <Jowi> KiloByte, i recommend the alternate install cd
[11:28] <Myzrael> atrus : because totem doesn't accel anymore (clearly software mode) and VLC video is flashy as if vsync isn't on or something.
[11:28] <BENN92647> World of Warcraft
[11:28] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: have you looked at winehq ? They have great instructions.
[11:28] <KiloByte> from where can i take a normal CD installer?
[11:28] <curare> i know that BENN92647 ;)
[11:28] <BENN92647> ERR! no they dont

[11:29] <atrus> curare: avahi
[11:29] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: the same place you download the livecd.
[11:29] <KiloByte> but i have a desktop CD
[11:29] <ShackJack> KiloByte: You want Xubuntu for that system - beleive me :) http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/
[11:29] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: you need to download the alternate cd image.
[11:29] <Jowi> KiloByte, at ubuntu.com you select the desktop download and just underneath the download button there's a checkbox for alternate cd.
[11:29] <Eltran> !minimal
[11:29] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[11:29] <BENN92647> does anyone in here play World of Warcraft on Linux?
[11:29] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: what part?
[11:29] <atrus> Myzrael: ah, not sure then.
[11:29] <SoulinEther> Xubuntu on those specs is awesome
[11:29] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: calm down and stop repeating.
[11:29] <BENN92647> this part:  cd /<path-to-directory>/ wine Installer.exe
 you were in here earlier and I gave you a guide
[11:30] <BENN92647> *firestrtr this part cd /<path-to-directory>/ wine Installer.exe
[11:30] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: what is the problem?
[11:30] <mobtek> Hi, I just set up a new system and wanted to dual boot WinXP and Ubuntu. I was running Ubuntu on a P4 system previously with no problems but on the new system it won't load whatsoever. I insert the livecd, boot, the splash shows up, and on any sort of load it gives me an error and tells me to boot with no apic. Unfortunately, I can't seem to select that option and the boot: prompt on start doesn't let me type anything.
[11:30] <SoulinEther> I'm running xubuntu + some gnome apps on a Celeron 500 mhz / 256 megs / 4 mb video and it's great
[11:30] <techII> xubuntu is also more bare bones, but thats why it runs better on older machines
[11:30] <Ashfire908> techII, I GOT IT!
[11:30] <vox754> BENN92647, this is ubuntu support channel not wow-under-wine-channel so try to understand if you do not get the desired help.
[11:30] <ShackJack> KiloByte: SoulinEther yeah GNOME on a 128MB system will run ickly - unless you can put more RAM in it...
[11:30] <KiloByte> how can i run Linux installing without running Linux From CD?
[11:30] <techII> Ashfire908, so specifying dns servers worked?
[11:30] <SoulinEther> mobtek: is your new pc 64-bit? your cpu
[11:30] <Ashfire908> no
[11:30] <Myzrael> atrus :3D clearly works.....direct rendering on as well. Just having some Vsync problem in video I think and totem is unable to use OpenGL as videa mode I think.
[11:30] <mobtek> SoulinEther: Yeah, Athlon 64 X2 3000+
[11:30] <fyrestrtr> KiloByte: you need a network based install, instructions are available on the wiki
[11:30] <Myzrael> atrus: Normally the drivers worked fine but 3d was slower then it should be.
[11:30] <BENN92647> *meta4ical they didnt want to help told me to go to you guys :(
[11:31] <SoulinEther> mobtek: have you downloaded the 64 bit Ubuntu release?
[11:31] <Ashfire908> you config the modem in the network settings
[11:31] <techII> Ashfire908, so what did?
[11:31] <Jowi> mobtek, can you press ESC at the first menu to enter text-mode? from there you can press F1-F6 for different options.
[11:31] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: what *part* of the instructions do you not understand?
 You should really be using #ubuntu as a last alternative if you couldn't find the information, have you tried the Ubuntu support forums at all?
[11:31] <Myzrael> BENN92647, that's to bad because this is not a wine channel so don't "whine" about wine here.
[11:31] <mobtek> SoulinEther: No, I heart it wasn't fully supported and not as problem-free as the 32-bit release
[11:31] <Myzrael> You can ask the ubuntu forum ofcourse but still....
[11:31] <Ashfire908> techII, system -> adminsitration -> network
[11:31] <ShackJack> BENN92647: #winehq or WINE wiki would be a better choice for supoprt...
[11:31] <Jowi> Myzrael, #winehq is the official wine channel
[11:31] <SoulinEther> mobtek: well, if you want to run your 32 bit ubuntu on your 64 bit processor, you will have to disable 64-bit execution or whatever on your current computer
[11:31] <Ashfire908> select the modem and click properites
[11:31] <mobtek> Jowi: Ah, I should try that. ESC, huh? Silly me.
[11:32] <Ashfire908> set the phone number, username and pass.
[11:32] <SoulinEther> mobtek: and i have no idea how to do that, lol
[11:32] <Myzrael> uh SoulinEther
[11:32] <Pricey> BENN92647, have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft ?
[11:32] <Jowi> mobtek, you will get a warning that you're about to leave the graphic screen but that's ok.
[11:32] <Myzrael> you can just run a 32bit ubuntu on 64 bit
[11:32] <Myzrael> nothing to do at all
[11:32] <SoulinEther> Myzrael: oh? good
[11:32] <Myzrael> just runs
[11:32] <Ashfire908> then set the modem location
[11:32] <ShackJack> I wish I had more old computers to but Ubuntu/Xubuntu on - it's kind of fun "resurrecting" an old system :)
[11:32] <Ashfire908> save
[11:32] <Jowi> mobtek, yeah, ESC at the first menu option when the cd starts
[11:32] <SoulinEther> Myzrael: sweet, will save me time when i upgrade my pc :)
[11:32] <Myzrael> 32bit on 64bit is fine
[11:32] <Myzrael> 64bit on 32bit not possible
[11:32] <BENN92647> dont be assholes, i understand your all these great programmers and have massive IQ's but I am simply stuck, i went to wine they wont help and %99 of the time there are "nice" people like indy that are helpful, I dont think he is around so I am asking you guys
[11:32] <hylje> SoulinEther: long mode (64bit) is explicitly entered, 32bit stuff dont know nor care about it
[11:32] <Myzrael> that's all
[11:32] <SoulinEther> well, i'm an idiot. :)
[11:33] <ShackJack> !enter | Myzrael
[11:33] <ubotu> Myzrael: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:33] <Jowi> mobtek, if that fails, download the alternate cd
[11:33] <Pricey> BENN92647, have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft ?
[11:33] <mobtek> Okay, thanks jowi and Soul, I'll try the ESC and noapic option first and keep my fingers crossed. Maybe try the 64-bit ver later.
[11:33] <Myzrael> yeah whatever ShackJack .....
[11:33] <SoulinEther> k, good luck man :)
[11:33] <snowman> should I need anything other than the title and root lines?
 I don't program, nor do I have an IQ. But I was in the exact same position you were at one point. The simple fact is you're lazy and not willing to go out and search for the information yourself, so you come here for a quick fix.
[11:33] <ShackJack> Myzrael: Respect the chat guidelines, please...
[11:33] <Myzrael> ShackJack, don't whine. Helping people here.
[11:33] <Pricey> Myzrael, ShackJack that's enough thanks. EOD
[11:34] <BENN92647> * pricey yeah i followed the steps and it wont recognise my directory desktop/wowfolder
[11:34] <Myzrael> Guidelines are good but don't be an ass about it.
[11:34] <fyrestrtr> the s/n ratio is going downhill
[11:34] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: what error message do you get?
[11:34] <Jowi> BENN92647, files and folder names in linux are case sensitive. "desktop" and "Desktop" are two different things. check your spelling :)
[11:34] <Myzrael> Anyhow SoulinEther , just install it from CD and you'll be fine. No problems at all, nothing extra to do.
[11:34] <BENN92647> *meta4ical im not lazy been on this for over an hour now going thru forums and wine...fact is i am stuck at the crucial point and not sure i am entering the information right
[11:35] <SoulinEther> Myzrael: k, thanks. good to know, now at least i won't embarrass myself :)
[11:35] <Pricey> BENN92647, I don't know where it says anything about dekstop/wowfolder ...
[11:35] <curare> omg. os x successfully restored xD
[11:35] <jlu> i just booted into ubuntu after not using it for a while, and suddely nothing works. no icons on my desktop, and launching things like "places -> home folder" fails. is there a simple solution for this?
 What is your Ubuntu forum account? May I see the thread you posted? ;p
[11:36] <Pricey> Meta4ical, That is enough thankyou.
[11:36] <BENN92647> *pricey the command is cd /<path-to-directory>/ wine Installer.exe  my path is i put all the stuf fin a folder wowfolder so i guess i type cd(space) /desktop/wowfolder/wineinstaller.exe right?
[11:36] <rokj> hi
[11:36] <Pricey> BENN92647, ok cli tips...
[11:36] <ShackJack> !hi | rokj
[11:36] <ubotu> rokj: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:36] <Pricey> BENN92647, firstly... / is your root. If you want to start frmo where you are currently, don't use it... so cd desktop/wowfolder/foo
[11:36] <Pricey> BENN92647, secondly... linux is case sensitive, so use capital D for desktop
[11:37] <BENN92647> ..if anyone is reading this  I still love Linux and everyone in here is really helpful
[11:37] <Jowi> jlu, could be whatever. try create a new user and log in with that new user. if the problem does not show for the new user you can probably delete the .gnome* (or .gconf* directories) in the user home. if the problem also show with the new user there is something more complex going on.
[11:37] <rokj> can i have user without password?
[11:37] <KiloByte> how can i install ubuntu wtih 128 RAM?
[11:37] <BENN92647> *thank you pricey
[11:37] <ShackJack> rokj: No, but you can set login so it goes right into desktop...
[11:37] <Pricey> !alternate | KiloByte
[11:37] <ubotu> KiloByte: 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
[11:37] <Jowi> KiloByte, you need the alternate cd
[11:37] <eboyjr> When would I want to use Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu? I know that Edubuntu is best for schools and other learning environments.
[11:37] <rokj> ShackJack, how do i do that?
[11:38] <Pricey> !best | eboyjr
 We're not trying to be hard on you, but you have to understand that being able to utilize tools such as finding information on your own and experimenting is vital under the Linux platform. We are literally helping you by not helping you, if that makes sense.
[11:38] <ubotu> eboyjr: 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.
[11:38] <upro> fyrestrtr, my /etc/ssh/ssh_config soe not talk about ports...
[11:38] <jlu> Jowi: alight. thanks for the idea. i'll check and see. thanks again.
[11:38] <ShackJack> rokj: System -> Administration ->  Login Window ... look for option there ;)
[11:38] <felipe_> Hi, I'm using the ubuntu 7.04 in a toshiba a205-s4797... But the audio is not working... I already try alsamixer command, but the columns don't show in config... Anyone know's explain me how fix this ?
[11:38] <rokj> ShackJack, thx
[11:39] <Iwizzard> Anyone know how to get LISTEN (Listen-project.com) to recognize . wma files?
[11:39] <BENN92647> *pricey is it possible for you to type it the exact way it should be done so i can copy and print it just doesnt want to work
[11:39] <eboyjr> When would I want to use Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu? I know that Edubuntu is best for schools and other learning environments.
[11:39] <felipe_> My hardware is Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G
[11:39] <ShackJack> eboyjr: Xubuntu best for lower spec systems or when you want more bang for the buck (uses XCFE) ... Kubuntu/Ubuntu mostly a matter of KDE vs GNOME enviroments - I prefer the latter...
[11:39] <radius> fyrestrtr, problem solved - just delete /etc/init.d/spampd
[11:39] <Pricey> BENN92647, No it really isn't :)
[11:39] <radius> fyrestrtr, thanks for that link
[11:39] <greendragon> i am trying to play movies in totem... i am a newbie... i installed the codecs it said I needed. but only way to see anything is full screen and sometimes squares block out part of the image... and have to switch it back and forth a few times too... or it shall only be a blank screen
[11:39] <BENN92647> K ")
[11:39] <Pricey> BENN92647, also you might want to utilse "tab completion"...
[11:40] <Pricey> BENN92647, type cd Des<tab>
[11:40] <vox754> !tab | BENN92647
[11:40] <ubotu> BENN92647: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[11:40] <Pricey> BENN92647, and it should fill out the rest of it
[11:40] <BENN92647> can i install by open wine and telling it to go to the CD?
[11:40] <Pricey> BENN92647, wine is command line only... it doesn't have a gui
[11:40] <Jowi> greendragon, sounds like you are running with beryl/compiz i guess?
[11:40] <Pricey> BENN92647, just follow the amazing guide that you are extremely lucky for me to have given you gratis
[11:40] <fyrestrtr> radius: glad it helped.
[11:41] <xst> According to the blueprints xorg7.3 will be a part of gutsy. Does anyone know when it will be implemented in any of the test CDs?
[11:41] <Pricey> xst, #ubuntu+1
[11:41] <xst> Thanks
[11:41] <fyrestrtr> upro: that is the ssh *client*
[11:41] <upro> fyrestrtr, where do I fond the server settings?
[11:41] <fyrestrtr> upro: to specify a port when connecting to a server, use the -p switch. Like this ssh -p 1234 server.example.com
[11:42] <fyrestrtr> upro: you have to install a server first, do you want to run a ssh server (allow other people ability to login to your system) or you just want to connect to other computers via ssh?
[11:42] <upro> for toodoty I didn't really want to connect to ssh, why should I do that?
[11:42] <fyrestrtr> what is toodoty?
[11:42] <upro> fyrestrtr: for timidity I didn't really want to connect to ssh, why should I do that?
[11:43] <fyrestrtr> upro: I don't know -- why are you asking about ssh then?
[11:43] <ice_cream> having trouble either making a .png transparent, or converting it to a transparent .xpm .. any ideas?
[11:43] <greendragon> jowi. i have no idea about beryl or compiz..  i just installed edubuntu today...  my windows hard drive crashed.  so I wanted to reload anyways so finally felt today was a good day to go linux...
[11:43] <imbecile> anyone know how to cut mp3 in audacity? im trying to make a ringtone
[11:43] <macafe> Hi, I'm using a laptop toshiba a205 with device Intel Corporation 82801G ... In the default install and config of ubuntu 7.04 my audio/sound is not working... I already try alsamixer.. not exist the columns of config.... Anyone can help me please ?
[11:43] <ShackJack> ice_cream: If using GIMP it should be 24 bit PNG ;)
[11:43] <upro> fyrestrtr: You said that my problem looked lie ssh running on a port other than 22, I only asked why timidity won't start here...
[11:44] <fyrestrtr> you were asking about connecting via ssh, sorry if I misunderstood your problem.
[11:44] <jlu> Jowi: ok, it worked with the new user. sorry that i ask again, but what files did you tell me to delete?
[11:44] <ice_cream> ShackJack, how can i tell how many bits it is?
[11:44] <Jowi> greendragon, ok. without having any details i would guess that you have a problem with your video driver. what video card do you have?
[11:44] <fyrestrtr> macafe: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:45] <ice_cream> ShackJack, is that , in gimp's info window, the 'visual depth' ?
[11:45] <upro> fyrestrtr: I get this as error message: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[11:45] <ShackJack> ice_cream: Erp.. nevermind -- just make sure no "background" is behind it - you should see checkerboard pattern -- though this question isn't really Ubuntu-specific ;)
[11:45] <macafe> fyrestrtr, Thanks.. I will study this related page
[11:45] <Jowi> jlu, anything connected to gnome such as ~/.gconf* /.gnome*
[11:45] <lousygarua> greendragon: Jowi: maybe he can try checking if the movie works in VLC or mplayer, then see if it's something with totem codecs or the movie itself is corrupted
[11:45] <BENN92647> ok i got the wine thing open and it says i maybe out of hard disk space when i try to install from the disk?
[11:45] <fyrestrtr> upro: what sound card do you have?
[11:46] <fyrestrtr> BENN92647: what is so confusing about that?
[11:46] <Myzrael> imbecile, Just search google for that. Audacity has nothing to do with Ubuntu and is a really easy audio-editor. Just a mather of dragging the mouse over the audio wav and cutting the part you don't want. Really....just play with it
[11:46] <Jowi> good idea lousygarua
[11:46] <BENN92647> *ifirestrtr  have over 200GB of space
[11:46] <curare> !mDNS
[11:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mdns - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:47] <BENN92647> i know this is not wine chat...but It is a linux issue so bare with me and help, please
[11:47] <hvgotcodes> hey i am trying to get the ubuntu iso on a disk -- can someone help?
[11:47] <hvgotcodes> im in archlinux
[11:47] <upro> fyrestrtr: I have a C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10)
[11:47] <Jowi> curare, what are you looking for?
[11:47] <wehttamb> is there a redirection service that can automatically get my ip address and host it somewhere on the net
[11:48] <wehttamb> i know you can get them for windows but is there one for linux
[11:48] <Myzrael> BENN92647, it's not a linux issue. It's a wine issue.
[11:48] <fyrestrtr> wehttamb: try no-ip.org
[11:48] <curare> Jowi: bonjour (aka zeroconf) for linux
[11:48] <ShackJack> hvgotcodes: Not really... in any linux distro worth its salt you should be able to right click iso and burn to disk...
[11:48] <lousygarua> greendragon: i suggest you install vlc and try to watch the movie with it.
[11:48] <hvgotcodes> arch in minimalist
[11:48] <Noobie> Hello. I can't install Ubuntu... Everytime I tell my computer to start from the CD, it just locks up right before the loading-bar is done
[11:48] <hvgotcodes> so there is no "right click"
[11:48] <hvgotcodes> id have to get gnome for that
[11:48] <Jowi> curare, libnss-mdns or search for avahi i guess
[11:49] <ShackJack> hvgotcodes: Yeah, well that's why this is the Ubuntu Channel ;)
[11:49] <curare> Jowi: thanks =)
[11:49] <fyrestrtr> isn't avahi installed by default?
[11:49] <hvgotcodes> cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hdc isoimage.iso
[11:49] <hvgotcodes> i tried that but the disk it produced isnt good
[11:49] <Jowi> !info avahi-daemon
[11:49] <ubotu> avahi-daemon: Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon. In component main, is optional. Version 0.6.17-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 76 kB, installed size 364 kB
[11:49] <Myzrael> hvgotcodes, have you checked the m5 sum of the iso file
[11:49] <Myzrael> ?
[11:49] <BENN92647> ok i am going to try and hook up my other drives and see if Linux will still show as master, then it says i can just copy the folder from windows to linux
[11:49] <hvgotcodes> yes i did myzrael
[11:50] <BENN92647> BRB...I hope :)
[11:50] <greendragon> another question...   tftp server.  I want to be able to install / load a few of my CDs via the network instead of cdrom drives...  is there a way to convert a CDrom into whatever format a tftp server shall need. like a windows cd or puppy distro...  (the two things I would like to boot)
[11:50] <bill> hello
[11:50] <Noobie> Hello. I can't install Ubuntu... Everytime I tell my computer to start from the CD, it just locks up right before the loading-bar is done
[11:50] <Myzrael> hvgotcodes, weird then. Generally your burn should go well.
[11:50] <Myzrael> hold on a second
[11:51] <Jowi> Noobie, how much ram do you have and which cd are you trying to boot?
[11:51] <hvgotcodes> is there any way i can verify the cd?
[11:51] <ShackJack> Noobie: You might want to use alternate install CD or unplug and extraneous periphrials... or check CD for defects...
[11:51] <bill> Noobie try an alternate cd
[11:51] <Noobie> Jowi: 512Mb and the official cd
[11:51] <bill> installl cd
[11:51] <Noobie> I don't have an empty cd
[11:51] <ShackJack> hvgotcodes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[11:52] <Jowi> Noobie, you should try the alternate cd.
[11:52] <fyrestrtr> greendragon: mount -t auto -o loop somefile.iso /some/path
[11:52] <Jowi> !alternate | Noobie
[11:52] <ubotu> Noobie: 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
[11:52] <ShackJack> Noobie: It's likely a bad burn, or you can try alt CD :)
[11:52] <bill> i know this sounds dumb but i have a duel boot with windows xp and i was woundering how to get xp to be the defualt start up system
[11:52] <Noobie> Thanks :) I don't have an empty cd... Is the classical text-mode installation ripped from the official installation?
[11:52] <Noobie> installation-cd?
[11:53] <ShackJack> bill you can edit /boot/grub/menu.1st and swap the order of O/S :0
[11:53] <bill> hwo
[11:53] <bill> or what commands
[11:53] <Jowi> Noobie, yes, to make room for other stuff
[11:53] <w30> Noobie, make sure your bios is told to boot a cd first
[11:53] <Myzrael> hvgotcodes, your command should work just fine. Maybe something with the burner? What goes wrong exactly?
[11:53] <Noobie> w30: Everything works... Except the graphical thing can't start up...
[11:53] <curare> nice, avahi was installed by default, but nfs and/or smb not :)
[11:54] <Ace2016> hi all
[11:54] <Jowi> night all
[11:54] <ShackJack> bill gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.1st   -- file heavily commented you should be able to see what to do to change order...

[11:55] <deathnall> ok guys question of the day . is there such thing as linux on the psp so i can write my html codes whikle im on my 4 hour trip tommorow in the car?
[11:55] <ShackJack> rhollan: Maybe reinstall nvidia-glx :)
[11:55] <rhollan> why nvidia? It's unichrome
[11:55] <vox754> rhollan, VIA S3 Unichrome chipsets? These are buggy. Let me get you the bug number.
[11:55] <fyrestrtr> deathnall: ever heard of a pen and paper?
[11:55] <Noobie> Is it hard to install?
[11:55] <ShackJack> Noobie: I'd check CD for defects if you haven't already...
[11:55] <deathnall> 8600 gtx baby all the way
[11:55] <rhollan> vox754: VIS S3 works fine for me under -15
[11:55] <bill> do i type that in the terminal
[11:55] <deathnall> yes i have heard of pen and paper but then i gota rewrite the code when i get back
[11:55] <ubuntu_> are there any good fuckers here ?
[11:55] <hvgotcodes> hm checking the burned disk yields a bunch of errors
[11:56] <ShackJack> !oh my | ubuntu_
[11:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oh my - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:56] <fyrestrtr> deathnall: and how do your propose to "type" it on the psp.
[11:56] <lor4x> hello, i need some help getting my usb-serial to work.  basically i've loaded usbserial but i don't know what block device it maps the convertor to... any help?
[11:56] <Myzrael> hvgotcodes, bad disc maybe or you're burning to fast with a bad burner.
[11:56] <vox754> ShackJack, ops, fast!
[11:56] <ShackJack> !ohmy | ubuntu_
[11:56] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:56] <fyrestrtr> lor4x: one quick way is to monitor dmesg as you plug in the device.
[11:56] <deathnall> yes but think of it all i have to do is save it as a txt file then transfer it to linux
[11:56] <hvgotcodes> yeah how to slow it down?
[11:56] <deathnall> jeez fyrestrtr
[11:56] <Noobie> Is it hard to install?
[11:56] <Myzrael> cdrecord --help should give you all the options
[11:56] <hvgotcodes> md5sum: ./pool/main/s/setserial/setserial_2.17-43_i386.deb: Input/output error
[11:56] <hvgotcodes> ./pool/main/s/setserial/setserial_2.17-43_i386.deb: FAILED open or read
[11:56] <jlu> jowi: no, it resetted all my settings (i guess that was to be expected...) but still it does not work. now however, after logging in i get an error message "Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error from Bonobo when attempting to locate the factory.Killing bonobo-activation-server and restarting Nautilus may help fix the problem." does this tell you anything?
[11:57] <hvgotcodes> thats the type of error im getting
[11:57] <bill> i am in gedit
[11:57] <bill> now how do i change the list of oses
[11:57] <vox754> rhollan, what are your problems with that chipset specifically?
[11:57] <bill> os;s
[11:57] <ShackJack> Noobie: No - just text based - but I'd check Live CD for defects myself..
[11:57] <deathnall> ok guys any links for linux on the psp?
[11:57] <w30> deathnall, a guy wrote a novel in a car on a psp according to a poster on Groklaw, so search on Google?
[11:57] <Noobie> ShackJack: Aight...
[11:57] <SoulinEther> hvgotcodes, don't you use debconf or dpkg to work with .deb files? or .. is that my backward stupidity... i'm not too sure these days
[11:57] <lor4x> fyrestrtr: it doesn't tell me a particular device... it says address 7, configuration #1.... do you need a particular usb-serial convertor for linux or do they all work?
[11:57] <ShackJack> bill  Scroll down - you'll see them, just cut paste and swap order...
[11:57] <bill> ok
[11:58] <rhollan> vox754: Feisty out of the box on unichrome works fine: 1100+ FPS in glxgears, but when I install the updates including 2.6.20-16 glxgears or glxinfo hangs hard
[11:58] <bill> i see a lot of things
[11:58] <bill> hold on
[11:58] <fyrestrtr> lor4x: no, they should all work.
[11:58] <hvgotcodes> SoulinEther: I was just trying to verify that the ubuntu cd i created had no errors
[11:58] <rpatino> hello folks, looking for help in setting a modem to my ubuntu 7.04 server
[11:58] <fyrestrtr> bill: the line is called 'default' it will be something like this > default 0
[11:58] <ShackJack> bill the lines start with title, root, etc..
[11:58] <rhollan> vox754: even booting the old -15 kernel is still broken after the -16 install
[11:58] <bill> ok
[11:58] <Ace2016> anyone know how to install a downloaded deb and get it to download the deps from the repos?
[11:58] <fyrestrtr> bill: 0 is the first entry called 'title', so the second entry is called 1, and the third entry 2, etc.
[11:59] <SoulinEther> hvgotcodes: k, don't mind me, i'm just reading a few lines and responding without looking at the context
[11:59] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: bill Oh... whoops I just cut/paste the list so the desired one is at top :)
[11:59] <fyrestrtr> bill: find the entry that has the os you want for default, and change the 0 after default 0 to that number, save the file, and reboot.
[11:59] <rpatino> i used to use it with a router, that took care of mac addresses. I am having a hard time finding mac addresses in u 7.04
[11:59] <snowman> rhollan: are you by chance talking of a device you used ndiswrapper with?
[11:59] <bill> ok
[11:59] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: no, that's not the right way to do it.
[11:59] <vox754> rhollan, this is the Master bug #43154 it hasn't been fixed in ages, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-via/+bug/43154
[11:59] <rhollan> thanks for the link, vox754
[11:59] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: I see -- it hasn't ever cause problems for me, but I'll take your word for it :)
[12:00] <fyrestrtr> Ace2016: sudo dpkg -i nameoffile.deb
[12:00] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: it will when the installer upgrades your kernels ;)
[12:00] <fiXXXerMet> I'm trying to do a raid5 with 4 disks on the server-install CD.  Each of the 4 drives has 2 raid partitions.  When I go to create the raid device, none of the /dev/xx1s show up, only /dev/xx2?
[12:00] <bill> um
[12:01] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: It hasn't yet - been though lots of kernel upgrades... Anyway change default in grub to which number - alls I see  is the (hd0,1) etc... with the Os's
[12:01] <vox754> rhollan, although your description is most interesting. I didn't use the -15 kernel, because I was still using Edgy. I jumped straight into -16, and I had the issues as you say, hard lock.
[12:01] <bill> is there anyway someone can do this remotely
