[12:01] <__mikem> does anyone know of a shell command I could use to find out of my laptop has a microphone
[12:01] <rhollan> vox754: yeah, -15 was fine. But even booting back into -15 after a -16 install it's still broken
[12:02] <ShackJack> bill - Eh? You're in the file - just edit as fyrestrtr instructed :)
[12:02] <Noobie> ShackJack: 0 Checksums failed...
[12:02] <rhollan> vox754: btw, I presume the via.ko is the openchrome version, NOT via's right?
[12:02] <bill> i am a noob i dont want to mess things up
[12:02] <ShackJack> Noobie: That means the Live CD you burned is bad :( You'll have to burn another - I ususally burn at slowest speed...
[12:02] <fyrestrtr> __mikem: has one, or has one that works?
[12:02] <bill> i dont get it
[12:03] <hvgotcodes> ok im trying at a slower speed with graveman
[12:03] <Noobie> ShackJack: Wait a second... You are saying "0 checksums are bad" is a bad thing??
[12:03] <__mikem> fyrestrtr, thanks for responding, but as it turns out it does, I just tried the recorder program
[12:03] <ShackJack> bill I don't get the default number thing either - I don't know what number fyrestrtr is referring to...
[12:03] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: bill there is a line called 'default'
[12:03] <bill> is there a way you or some else can do this remotely
[12:03] <bill> >
[12:03] <ShackJack> Noobie: Erp... sorry - thought the 0 was extranneous typo...
[12:03] <fyrestrtr> after this there is a number, it is 0
[12:03] <fiXXXerMet> Or if I install ubuntu now, can I convert it to a raid-5 setup after the intall?
[12:03] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: Yes, I see that but where are you getting the #?
[12:04] <ShackJack> Noobie: I guess try alternate CD or try to boot again... Sometimes third time's a charm :)
[12:04] <fyrestrtr> 0 means the first entry in the list of operating systems that grub can boot. The first entry is number 0, the second one 1, and so on. Now, to make (for example) the fourth entry the one that boots by default, change default 0 to default 3
[12:04] <Noobie> So I just have to find a cd, download the alternate installation CD, install it and follow the step-by-step guide?
[12:04] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: the first 'title' line is number 0, the second title line is 1, and so on.
[12:05] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: I see - bill - you get that?
[12:05] <bill> were it says root hd0, 0 do i change that at all ?
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> bill: *NO*
[12:05] <bill> ok
[12:05] <vox754> rhollan, the solution for me was to change the option, in xorg.conf, DisableIRQ to false or true. It worked for some. At least no locks. via.ko is from Xorg, but they supposedly get code from openchrome. Via's original code is primitive as far as I know, and is not really used, or is already included in Openchrome and Xorg.
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> bill: like I said, where it says, on a line by itself default 0
[12:05] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: Although it seems to be that as new kernels are added and old ones pushed down it would mess up the order - unless they are pushed down to the bottom "under" the default one...
[12:05] <bill> i see save defualt
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: there is a limit to how many kernels are listed :)
[12:06] <lockd> anyone had much luck with the -source- version of VirtualBox?
[12:06] <rhollan> vox754: I have DisableIRQ set to "false" Are you suggesting that "true" might work better?
[12:06] <fyrestrtr> bill: no, keep looking.
[12:06] <bill> ok

[12:07] <broman> greeting all... I am such a noob that I still have on my penquin pampers... and, of course, I have a question... can I remove evolution by the synoptic, just 2 clicks and everything will be ok ?
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> bill: please listen. This is not complicated.
[12:07] <ShackJack> bill if you can't see where it says "default" I dunno what to tell you - it's right there...
[12:08] <fyrestrtr> bill: it is the very first line, from the top that DOES NOT HAVE A #
[12:08] <bill> ok
[12:08] <fyrestrtr> bill: by # I mean the symbol '#'
[12:08] <techII> broman: i think ubuntu-desktop depends on evolution
[12:08] <ray_> how i open /usr/lib in edubuntu im brain gone
[12:08] <techII> it is safe to remove ubuntu-desktop
[12:08] <ShackJack> bill P.S. find in gedit will highlight all instances of a phrase :)
[12:08] <vox754> fyrestrtr, this was your fault, you should mention the paste bin even if you are not planning on using it.
[12:08] <ray_> i nbeed to open /usr/lib with room i for got to add that
[12:09] <ShackJack> techII: It is, as it is a meta package but might cause dependency issues for upgrades... I just leave Evolution in and hide it in the menu...
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> vox754: I can't anticipate what people will do.
[12:09] <vox754> rhollan, it works strange for everybody. Some DisableIRQ false and some use true.
[12:09] <vox754> fyrestrtr, ah... but you should as I do.
[12:09] <ray_> any one willing to hhelp i need to open /usr/lib with room on edubuntu
[12:09] <ray_> im for got the command
[12:09] <lockd> btw, anyone know how to pastebin when you can't copy and paste? like a shell script or something?
[12:09] <Ace2016> fyrestrtr: it doesn't install the deps, just says they are not installed
[12:09] <ray_> so i can drag a file over to it
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> ray_: what do you mean 'with room' ?
[12:09] <ray_> fr i mean root
[12:09] <lockd> would be handy to put on modern distros if X can't even come up
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> Ace2016: what is it?
[12:10] <ShackJack> vox754: Eh? How could fyrestrtr anticipate bill would do that? - I don't think so... Anyhew...
[12:10] <ray_> fyrestrtr root not room
[12:10] <broman> techil : yes, that is what I saw... and was wondering if it just edits it or wipes all code for the desktop... scary !
[12:10] <bill> i found defualt
[12:10] <bill> !!!!
[12:10] <bill> its says 0
[12:10] <techII> it removes the code from the system
[12:10] <Ace2016> fyrestrtr: pidgin
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> ray_: hit alt+f2, type gksudo nautilus
[12:10] <vox754> ShackJack, yes, first thing you tell a newbie, is "Do not paste here under any circumstances"... then you give him the !paste factoid. Ha.
[12:11] <fyrestrtr> Ace2016: are you on fiesty? I have it working here without issues.
[12:11] <bill> ok thnaks guys
[12:11] <seanw> ?86
[12:11] <rhollan> vox754: Well, DisableIRQ true didn't help. Gonna try false.
[12:11] <ray_> ok fyrstrtr what tehn first time on edubuntu
[12:11] <seanw> Whoops.
[12:11] <ShackJack> vox754: So anytime someone says "I'm a newbie" I should just !pastebin | newbie :)
[12:11] <fyrestrtr> ray_: then hit enter, and then type your password. What are you doing?
[12:12] <Ace2016> fyrestrtr: yea on feisty
[12:12] <vox754> ShackJack, approximately, you use "!paste > newbie"   ha, take that
[12:12] <ray_> trying to drag a file a program need to /usr/lib i got it

[12:12] <Ace2016> and there are more things it depends on
[12:12] <PF|Ubuntu> Ace2016, just apt-get them

[12:14] <PF|Ubuntu> Ace2016, I can help you with PIdgin
[12:14] <vox754> nprice, gutsy is not out yet. Unless you can teleport to the future.

[12:14] <__mikem> God why won't the line in check box stay unchecked in the volume panel
[12:14] <fyrestrtr> PF|Ubuntu: then expect bugs, and expect to be in #ubuntu+1
[12:14] <Ace2016> PF|Ubuntu: not tehre
[12:15] <PF|Ubuntu> fyrestrtr, mine works just fine
[12:15] <SecrethX> sorry

[12:16] <vox754> rhollan, according to some, the via driver problem has two parts, one dealing with interrupt problems and another with 3D stuff. The IRQ thing seemed like a linux kernel thing, which got solved fast. But that is not the end of it. My gears have always, since 6.10, given me around 500 FPS.
[12:16] <Ace2016> from there ^
[12:16] <PF|Ubuntu> Ace2016, what dependencies are missing
[12:16] <fyrestrtr> Ace2016: then it is not right, because I can see it right there in my list.
[12:16] <Ace2016> fyrestrtr: go into properties and check which repo it came from
[12:16] <SkiGuy> hey all - I have an inspiron 8500 with a docking station. The dock has a speaker output that I'd like to use, but I can only get sound out of the port on the laptop or out of the onboard speakers. anyone have any ideas?
[12:17] <PF|Ubuntu> I installed from the deb
[12:17] <rhollan> vox754: yeah, but -15 works and -16 doesn't. I can't see worse performance with such a minor change.

[12:19] <vox754> rhollan,  "but -15 works and -16 doesn't" if you can mention that to the launchpad bugs maybe they can track what went wrong from one version to the other.       How many FPS?

[12:26] <ray_> any one got a ipod
[12:26] <broman> Are there support channels in different languages, or is a global awareness part of the Ubuntu experience ?
[12:26] <ShackJack> andrea_: Check out #ubuntu-effects or #beryl for help...
[12:26] <Ademan> andrea_: make sure you have a window decorator enabled, click on the little gem and go to window decorator and select one
[12:26] <PriceChild> broman, there is a channel for basically every language
[12:27] <sabgenton> PriceChild: do you think I'd have any problems from gentoo
[12:27] <vox754> rhollan, can you activate the "desktop effects"?  Because I have a K8M800 which is different from CN400
[12:27] <sabgenton> that make a difference
[12:27] <sabgenton> ?
[12:27] <PriceChild> sabgenton, a chroot's a chroot
[12:27] <andrea_> y windows decorator on
[12:27] <broman> ty, PriceChild ...
[12:27] <sabgenton> :)
[12:27] <t2samurai> Whic source is better ? 1. source-o-matic or 2. Trevios
[12:28] <PriceChild> t2samurai, source-o-matic
[12:28] <t2samurai> ok
[12:28] <rhollan> vox754: and how would I activate "desktop effects" I am planning to use this as a media player with integrated 500GB of content goodness :-) The box is about 8x11x1.5"
[12:28] <PriceChild> t2samurai, please don't add random 3rd party repositories you cannot trust.
[12:28] <t2samurai> why ?
[12:28] <rhollan> Silverstone LC08 case

[12:29] <broman> N E 1 ... If I cannot remove Evolution... can I somehow keep it comatose ? (I have nothing against it, I just do not require it and would rather free up the resourses
[12:29] <ubotu> ray_: 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?
[12:29] <t2samurai> thank for your help
[12:29] <Ademan> broman: why can't you remove evolution?
[12:29] <t2samurai> U
[12:29] <sabgenton> gee this chanels flooded
[12:29] <ray_> any ipod user here use YamiPod? on linux
[12:29] <vox754> rhollan, well in System > Preferences you can activate them. I'm curious because I can't use them, so I want to know if you can.
[12:29] <sabgenton> this distros to popluar :P
[12:30] <Ademan> ray_: no but banshee and rhythmbox both support ipods and are great apps
[12:30] <jtong> hi all
[12:30] <Meta4ical> hi
[12:30] <sabgenton> hey
[12:30] <ray_> ad heard YamiPod good
[12:30] <fyrestrtr> Exile is another good one.
[12:30] <ray_> thats why i ask
[12:30] <t2samurai> Hey anybody knows about a app for ipcamaras here i can install ?
[12:30] <vox754> sabgenton, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic you can ask people about their preferences without flooding the channel.
[12:30] <towlieban> I have a radeon 9100 IGP video chipset. will it work with compiz/xgl in ubuntu?
[12:31] <rhollan> vox754: no desktop effects
[12:31] <t2samurai> sorry ipcameras
[12:31] <broman> Ademan: synoptic says "ubuntu-desktop" is part of the deal... sounds like it wipe the entire desktop, nuts, screws, and all...
[12:31] <jtong> what's the package management paradigm in ubuntu? i'm trying to upgrade to vim 7 on my edgy
[12:31] <fyrestrtr> no, its a meta package
[12:31] <Ademan> broman: hah, i knew it, ubuntu-desktop is a meta package
[12:31] <fyrestrtr> you can safely remove it.
[12:31] <Ademan> broman: you can safely remove it
[12:31] <ShackJack> towlieban: Yes, with radeon driver...
[12:31] <jtong> and it seems the only way for me is to build from source
[12:31] <Ademan> arg fyrestarter :-p
[12:31] <SoulinEther> towlieban: 9200 works fine for me
[12:31] <towlieban> ok
[12:31] <fyrestrtr> jtong: that would be apt
[12:31] <SoulinEther> only way is to try :)
[12:31] <fyrestrtr> !apt | jtong
[12:31] <ubotu> jtong: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[12:32] <sabgenton> vox754: hey im just trying to get ati driver help ( i like ubuntu, no preference)
[12:32] <Ademan> broman: yeah all it does is if someone on kubuntu wanted to install all of normal ubuntu, they' install that package, that's the only reason it exists, since it installs all of the other packages too
[12:32] <sabgenton> vox754: sory for the blather
[12:32] <tcpsyn> gentlemen
[12:32] <ShackJack> !hi | tcpsyn (and don't forget the ladies!)
[12:32] <ubotu> tcpsyn (and don't forget the ladies!): Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:32] <vox754> rhollan, go to #vocx
[12:32] <jtong> fyrestrtr: i'm using adept but vim 7 is not available yet for edgy
[12:33] <fyrestrtr> jtong: have you tried backports? It is default in fiesty.
[12:33] <Meta4ical> I'm about to install Ubuntu 7.04, previously i've had issues with an incorrect resolution so during the installation process the bottom of the window would be cut off, is their anything I can enter at boot or later to fix this? I have a sapphire radeon x1550 pci-e card
[12:33] <ShackJack> sabgenton: Which ATI card you have?
[12:33] <fyrestrtr> Meta4ical: you could try !fixres
[12:33] <fyrestrtr> Meta4ical: once you have it installed.
[12:33] <randoman> anyone ever run into this
[12:33] <randoman> Cannot add module via name 'mod_php5.c': not in list of loaded modules
[12:33] <mcphail> jtong: vim7 is in edgy
[12:33] <tcpsyn> and ladies.
[12:33] <ShackJack> Meta4ical: Or run install in VGA mode - you'll see option at startup...
[12:34] <jtong> fyrestrtr: i'm aware it's available for fiesty
[12:34] <randoman> while trying to get php to work with apache in ubuntu
[12:34] <fyrestrtr> randoman: what are you trying? sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[12:34] <sabgenton> ShackJack: none anymore i've moved my hardrive to another computer and nothings working so im trying to uninstall everything conflicking
[12:34] <mcphail> !info vim edgy
[12:34] <ubotu> vim: Vi IMproved - enhanced vi editor. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.0-035+1ubuntu5.1 (edgy), package size 718 kB, installed size 1420 kB
[12:34] <sabgenton> ShackJack: the new machines is nvidia
[12:34] <ShackJack> sabgenton: You'll have a much easier time with that :)
[12:34] <Iwizzard> Anyone know how to get LISTEN (Listen-project.com) to recognize . wma files?
[12:35] <sabgenton> ShackJack: plus the mobo is intel now not amd
[12:35] <broman> Ademan: ok... understood that... will I need to reinstall ubuntu-desktop later, or should I have it reinstalled later in the same sequence ? (if you had to guess)
[12:35] <jtong> mcphail: where did u get vim 7 pkg for edgy? i'm using adept but cant find it
[12:35] <xorgdestroyer> hi, seems as if my home folder no longer 'belongs' to me, because I can't log into my account. How should I rectify this?
[12:35] <fyrestrtr> jtong: it is in the main repo
[12:35] <sabgenton> ShackJack: yeah just gettinr rid of the ati crap
[12:35] <mcphail> jtong: vim7 is standard in edgy, iirc.
[12:35] <Ademan> broman: no that's the whole point of ubuntu-desktop, when you install it, it includes a whole bunch of other crap, including evolution.  You can remove it and leave it removed without hurting anything
[12:35] <mcphail> jtong: dapper was vim6
[12:35] <fyrestrtr> jtong: have you tried updating?
[12:35] <N[i] X> hello: i think i installed selinux onto my ubuntu box but when i try a sestatus it results disabled... can anybody help?
[12:36] <ShackJack> xorgdestroyer: (like your screen name) maybe https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword?highlight=%28password%29  if you lost your password?
[12:36] <Meta4ical> ShackJack: I'll try VGA mode thanks, I was also wondering .. if I bootup without being connected through ethernet, and then after installing I try to bootup again, will it detect the ETH0?
[12:36] <ShackJack> Meta4ical: It ought too, yess...
[12:36] <fyrestrtr> Meta4ical: detection works without cables.
[12:37] <randoman> anyone ever get this, when loading apache, after install php
[12:37] <randoman> /etc/apache/libexec/libphp5.so: undefined symbol: apr_pool_cleanup_null
[12:37] <Meta4ical> Just a little worried, I connect to the internet through wireless but it's not detected by default, so I'll need to bring the modem upstairs to get that resolved
[12:37] <fyrestrtr> randoman: how did you install php?
[12:37] <xorgdestroyer> ShackJack: thanks : ). The problem was I accidentally reformatted my root partition, but my /home partition remained intact
[12:37] <ShackJack> xorgdestroyer: Ah... so you can log in?  If so, you just need to change ownership of files in home...
[12:37] <curare> is there a similar look to this: http://zibr.files.wordpress.com/2006/12/picture-2.png    for gnome ?
[12:37] <randoman> downloaded latest from php website, and followed this LoadModule php5_module libexec/libphp5.so
[12:38] <curare> i just installed this theme on my mac and love it ^^
[12:38] <randoman> opps
[12:38] <randoman> i mean followed this
[12:38] <randoman> http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php#install.unix.apache
[12:38] <xorgdestroyer> SheckJack: yes, and this is a chown command, right?
[12:38] <broman> Ademan: ok.... and just for noobie clarity, even though it says it will remove the desktop, it wont remove the entire desktop, kinda just edit Evo out of it, correct ?
[12:38] <ShackJack> xorgdestroyer: Yep.... chown -R user:grp  /home/username ...or something - see man page ;)
[12:39] <Ademan> broman: yeah
[12:39] <fyrestrtr> randoman: please, before compiling things check if it is available in repos.
[12:39] <fyrestrtr> randoman: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[12:39] <randoman> ok I did that, it still gave me same problem
[12:39] <randoman> alright ill try that
[12:39] <fyrestrtr> !lamp | randoman
[12:39] <ubotu> randoman: 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+)
[12:39] <jtong> fyrestrtr: yeah i tried updating but got nothing
[12:39] <ShackJack> broman: Yeah, but I find removing ubuntu-* meta packages causes issues with upgrades so I just leave Evo, et al in and uncheck in menu :)
[12:39] <fyrestrtr> jtong: what deb mirrors are you using? Its quite a strange error.
[12:40] <randoman> libapache2-mod-php5 is already the newest version.
[12:40] <randoman> libapache2-mod-php5 set to manual installed.
[12:40] <mcphail> jtong: what is the version returned from "apt-cache policy vim"?
[12:40] <fyrestrtr> randoman: now you need to shift to ##php and hope for help.
[12:40] <jcooper> Okay, got Ubuntu installed on a dual boot WinXP/Ubuntu setup using the 'noapic' option (hitting F6 at the menu). Now I have it installed, dual boot works, but loading Ubuntu gives me a kernel panic and tells me to load with 'noapic' again. I tried editing the grub menu 'e', including 'noapic' in the command line, but it doesn't save the new command once I go back to the menu 'ESC' and try loading Ubuntu. Always gives me the same APIC kern
[12:41] <broman> Ademan: ... thank you so much sir...  I will give 'er a go !
[12:41] <Ademan> broman: no problem
[12:41] <fyrestrtr> jcooper: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add the option there.
[12:41] <jtong> mcphail: sorry i'm on dapper
[12:41] <mcphail> jtong: if you're on dapper you'll have to compile vim7
[12:41] <jcooper> furestrtr: can I do that from the boot prompt menu though? I can't get into Ubuntu whatsoever (well, maybe if I used the LiveCD).
[12:42] <amartolos> anyone expert at sharing a printer between ubuntu and vista? printer's on vista
[12:42] <mcphail> jtong: i may have a "checkinstalled" vim7 lying around somewhere...
[12:42] <Ademan> hey fyrestrtr do you know if it's possible to use iptables to run a command as a policy?
[12:42] <Ademan> for certain packets that is
[12:42] <fyrestrtr> jcooper: whatever you have to do in the prompt menu, you can make it permanent by editing the grub menu; so boot into ubuntu and set it from there.
[12:42] <xorgdestroye2> sorry, I got disconnected. 'read error'
[12:42] <jtong> mcphail: ok
[12:42] <fyrestrtr> Ademan: sorry I do not.
[12:43] <Ademan> fyrestrtr: totally cool, i'm just on a quest lol
[12:43] <jtong> mcphail: oh ok, i can build from src
[12:43] <jcooper> fyrestrtr: Problem is, booting into Ubuntu doesn't work. It gives me a kernel panic way before it loads. I'll try it with the LiveCD though.
[12:43] <madman91> is there a cli cd burner? like k3b .. not just cdrecord or whatever.. one that has it all
[12:43] <jtong> mcphail: just didnt feel like breaking the "elegant" package management model
[12:43] <fyrestrtr> madman91: k3b is a frontend to cdrecord
[12:43] <mcphail> jtong: ok, if you have probs pm me your email and i'll send the deb. It is 5.8MB
[12:43] <frostburn> How do I add more screen resolutions?  I edited my xorg, but to no avail.
[12:43] <wastedfluid> Hi guys.  I have Ubuntu 6.06 running through a VPS.  hosting an ircd server, after about 100 connections to the ircd server, I get lots of "no buffer space available" - and stuff like the sshd server can't accept connections anymore.. anyone have any clues?
[12:43] <madman91> fyrestrtr: but it is also a frontend to many other programs

[12:44] <rbrunhuber_> armartolos: don't know if thats possible, I'm sharing a printer between win and lin but its on linux
[12:44] <xorgdestroye2> *how do I chown it?
[12:44] <madman91> is there a cdrecord + othercdutils frontend in cli?
[12:44] <jtong> mcphail:  u got the backport?
[12:44] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye2: Go to command line and chown, etc... like I typed before ;)
[12:44] <OSUKid7> hi, I'm running Ubuntu gutsy on my Thinkpad T61... I have an Intel iwl4965 wifi, and have installed the driver.

[12:44] <kenro> Anyone know how to calibrate a gamepad?

[12:45] <Apollodoros> How can I set manually required reso and refresh rate in Xconf?
[12:45] <kenro> OSUKid7:  Go over there and plug the thing in.

[12:45] <xorgdestroye2> thanks

[12:45] <broman> ShackJack: ty... I was warned about feisty before I even got a taste of any 'nix ... I transfer all salvagables, wipe and only load new distro's on freshly wiped HD's... been doing it like this for years...

[12:46] <event_ide> where is the grub config file stored again?

[12:46] <fyrestrtr> event_ide: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:46] <ShackJack> broman: No prob - though I forgot what I helped you with :)
[12:46] <xorgdestroye2> ShackJack: so, in most cases, if the user was called patrick, it would be sudo chown -R patrick:patrick /home/patrick ?
[12:46] <event_ide> tarzeau, fyrestrtr; thanks
[12:47] <xorgdestroye2> ShackJack:  or does it need the uid, guid?
[12:47] <fyrestrtr> xorgdestroye2: it doesn't need the ids
[12:47] <kenro> OSUKid7: Sorry. Just thought it was funny, the image of not connecting because the other host was unplugged.

[12:48] <spleencheesmonk1> anyone able to help with amsn? cant open received files gt message: Please check the open file command in preferences window.  what do i need to ddo?
[12:48] <Apollodoros> How can I set manually required reso and refresh rate in Xconf?
[12:48] <xorgdestroye2> ShackJack: alright, the 'add users' gui makes it seem like the group goes by the same name as the user
[12:48] <_nnx_> Hey, folks.  I need to reinstall Ubuntu, 'cuz an upgrade hosed my system and trying to fix it finished it off.  Is there any way I can do this WITHOUT losing all the data on the partition, i.e. not reformat and leave /home alone?
[12:48] <kenro> ubotu:  Serious question... Are you dual-booting?
[12:49] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye2: Yep...
[12:49] <arooni> fyrestrtr: but i havent just installed windows or anything.... i just moved my hard drives to a new mobo
[12:49] <fyrestrtr> _nnx_: this would be the time when backups come in handy.
[12:49] <xorgdestroye2> I am reading the man page now :)
[12:49] <fyrestrtr> arooni: that's why I said, check the *second* link
[12:49] <_nnx_> fyrestrtr: I have them, but I'd rather not have to resort to them.  Can it be done?
[12:49] <fyrestrtr> _nnx_: most likely, yes.
[12:49] <spleencheesmonk1> anyone??
[12:49] <fyrestrtr> _nnx_: from a livecd, you can mount the drive and take your data off of there.
[12:50] <arooni> hehe oik
[12:50] <fyrestrtr> _nnx_: if your /home was on another partition, then you really don't have to do that.
[12:50] <_nnx_> fyrestrtr: No, I mean, install without a reformat.
[12:50] <_nnx_> fyrestrtr: I already used an old distro I had on another partition to retrieve the data with dar, so I'm good with that.
[12:50] <nedw> is there any way i can get usplash on feisty to be more verbose like the usplash on dapper?
[12:50] <fyrestrtr> _nnx_: I have never done that, just upgrades.
[12:50] <_nnx_> fyrestrtr: Alright.  Thanks.
[12:51] <kenro> ubotu:  Serious question... Are you dual-booting? I ask because I cannot understand why you would need to.

[12:54] <ansque> how are you?

[12:55] <kenro> ! How to calibrate a gamepad?
[12:55] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye3: Dunno - missed it... just chmod ;)
[12:55] <madman91> lol
[12:55] <kenro> !ask How to calibrate a gamepad?
[12:55] <madman91> !hahaha
[12:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hahaha - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:55] <xorgdestroye3> kenro: mine didn't need calibrating, but you can try jscalibrator
[12:55] <fyrestrtr> !botabuse
[12:55] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[12:55] <spleencheesmonk1> guess nobody knows then. :(
[12:55] <g-hennux> hi!
[12:56] <ray_> so rythmbox will do ipod
[12:56] <madman91> fyrestrtr: i know.. i was just doing that to laugh at the other guy
[12:56] <g-hennux> i've just installed kubuntu and have a grub question
[12:56] <exyan> err, so anyone know how to get skype working on amd64?
[12:56] <g-hennux> is it possible to tell grub to start windows with certain parameters, e.g. /noguiboot or so?
[12:56] <kenro> xorgdestroye3:  I did. Now my directionpad and sticks don't work.
[12:56] <spleencheesmonk1> exyan - difficult to get an answe4r in here. they're all very busy.
[12:56] <ray_> rhythmbox
[12:56] <bill> hello
[12:56] <NixMan> when compiling from source and using the ./configure command, how can i tell what possible options i can use?
[12:56] <exyan> spleencheesmonk1: this should be a pretty simple and common question imo :/
[12:56] <g-hennux> NixMan: ./configure --help
[12:56] <xorgdestroye3> kenro: happened to me too. a restart fixed it (just don't use jscalibrator again)
[12:57] <NixMan> g-hennux: gotcha, thanks
[12:57] <vox754> g-hennux, I think grub transfers the booting to Windows boot loader, so you give those options in windows. I'm not sure.
[12:57] <xorgdestroye3> kenro: I don't think jscalibrator is really necessary, it only seems to mess things up
[12:57] <spleencheesmonk1> in your opinion yes - i'm new to ubuntu - installed about 3 days ago. i love it so far.
[12:57] <erUSUL> spleencheesmonk1: try gnome-open
[12:57] <bill> how do you make multiple user acounts
[12:57] <bill> ?
[12:57] <xorgdestroye3> ShackJack: if you do this sudo chown -R patrick: /home/patrick, it automatically assigns changes the group to whatever group patrick is in
[12:57] <bill> accounts] 
[12:58] <xorgdestroye3> bill: system>administration>users and groups
[12:58] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye3: Ah... I see -- didn't know that :)
[12:58] <g-hennux> vox754: but for that, i need to have the windows boot manager on the win partition, right? not in mbr
[12:58] <bill> i only made a root partition
[12:58] <bill> is that ok
[12:58] <xorgdestroye3> ShackJack: it's in the man :)
[12:58] <ShackJack> bill It's not ideal, but O.K.  make as many accounts as you like :)
[12:58] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye3: :P
[12:58] <bill> ok
[12:59] <spleencheesmonk1> Can't execute application: my_filemanager open $location. Check preferences
[12:59] <vox754> g-hennux, I'm not sure about Windows. It is not clear to me how it works (closed source). Hence I use Ubuntu.
[12:59] <xorgdestroye3> ShackJack: I'll try to login on the virtual terminal now
[12:59] <Nutubuntu> bill is this a new install for you? or have you already got significant user data in /home ?
[12:59] <broman> that was pretty cool... how many bots are in here ?
[01:00] <bill> new install
[01:00] <fyrestrtr> ktorrent -- kind kool for a kda app.
[01:00] <exyan> ok I guess skype doesn't work on ubuntu ;p
[01:00] <cleardensity> hello
[01:00] <PriceChild> exyan, skype has ubuntu packages.
[01:00] <xorgdestroye3> ShackJack: looks good :) thanks for your help
[01:00] <ShackJack> !hi | cleardensity
[01:00] <ubotu> cleardensity: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:00] <ShackJack> xorgdestroye3: NP :)
[01:00] <fyrestrtr> ShackJack: I really wish you would stop that.
[01:01] <exyan> PriceChild: u meant ubuntu has skype packages Oo?
[01:01] <xorgdestroye3> lol
[01:01] <spleencheesmonk1> lol
[01:01] <bill> i have a new install
[01:01] <broman> lol
[01:01] <xorgdestroye3> at first I thought ubotu was a person
[01:01] <fyrestrtr> !skype | exyan
[01:01] <ubotu> exyan: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[01:01] <xorgdestroye3> then I realized he was controlled by those who said !
[01:01] <Nutubuntu> Reason I asked, bill, is that if you don't have a bunch of stuff in /home and if you don't mind the extra effort, creating a separate partition for /home is a good idea. That way if you need or want to reinstall later, your data doesn't necessarily need to be backed up and restored after your reinstallation or upgrade
[01:01] <PriceChild> exyan, from skype.com i clicked on downloads, then feisty fawn 7.04 to get here http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-ubuntu
[01:01] <PriceChild> exyan, that was 2 clicks....
[01:01] <exyan> PriceChild: amd64..?
[01:01] <bill> o
[01:01] <bill> ok
[01:02] <PriceChild> exyan, I doubt it.
[01:02] <ShackJack> fyrestrtr: Or, you could ask nicely :P
[01:02] <xorgdestroye3> exyan: did you check if they had a 64 bit version? (I have 64)
[01:02] <aryr> has anyone got mirc to run under wine ?
[01:02] <tarzeau> aryr: yes
[01:02] <exyan> xorgdestroye3: well, I already came to the conclusion that skype doesn't work on ubuntu amd64
[01:02] <panik3r> how do i write to different folders on ubuntu? using terminal
[01:02] <exyan> PriceChild: and yes, for x86 it's 2 clicks
[01:02] <fyrestrtr> panik3r: write what?
[01:03] <sabgenton> PriceChild: oh do i need to mount anythng more that root when i chroot? (for apt geting)
[01:03] <panik3r> well, im trying to install the java runtime envirment
[01:03] <xorgdestroye3> exyan: lol that's too bad. you might be able to build it with 32bit libraries like you can do with firefox
[01:03] <erUSUL> !java | panik3r
[01:03] <ubotu> panik3r: 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
[01:03] <fyrestrtr> panik3r: please see the wiki
[01:03] <exyan> xorgdestroye3: I dunno if I'll bother, mby I'll give ubuntu x86 a try, then prolly back to gentoo
[01:04] <xorgdestroye3> exyan: alrighty. I had 32 bit for awhile, but then I thought I might take advantage of all 64 bits
[01:04] <dylanmoore> can anyone help me with a strange broadcom ndiswrapper problem?
[01:04] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: what's up?
[01:04] <Nutubuntu> What is the difference, if any, between sun-java5-jre and sun-java6-jre? Should I avoid one?
[01:04] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: I can try helping at least
[01:04] <Pelo> Nutubuntu, 6 is the latest , go for that
[01:04] <the_giver> to delete one word to the left/right of cursor in the terminal.. whats the keyboard combintion for that
[01:04] <fyrestrtr> Nutubuntu: if you don't know the difference, then install java6
[01:04] <aryr> @tarzeau which version & how ?
[01:05] <ari_stress> hello all, good morning
[01:05] <dylanmoore> xorgdestroye3, i installed ndiswrapper and the inf file.  ndiswrapper -l reveals that driver is loaded and hardware is present, but i cannot get the to come on
[01:05] <tarzeau> aryr: wine mirc32.exe, that was 6 years ago :)
[01:05] <tarzeau> aryr: even winamp.exe worked and dopewars.exe
[01:05] <dylanmoore> get the card*
[01:05] <tarzeau> aryr: i'm using gnu screen and irssi these days
[01:05] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: so the light or whatever is not on?
[01:05] <Nutubuntu> Pelo,  fyrestrtr - t/y
[01:05] <sabgenton> fyrestrtr: if i chroot from another distro do i need no mount anthing othere than the root?
[01:05] <broman>  ? does the bot do any tricks, like temp in deathvalley, or such ?
[01:05] <exyan> irssi 4ever
[01:05] <exyan> lol
[01:05] <exyan> ;[
[01:05] <exyan> ;] 
[01:05] <zenmonk> what does dpkg --configure do?  What does it mean to reconfigure a package?
[01:06] <Pelo> !botsnack
[01:06] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[01:06] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: because there are still things you need to do to finish the installation of ndiswrapper
[01:06] <dylanmoore> xorg, no.  last night it was on and it was scanning but not connecting.  but today, the card (and light on the card) are not initializing
[01:06] <vox754> to that person who asked about vim 7.0, well I have 7.04 and I have vim 7.0, no need to install it from strange sources.
[01:06] <g-hennux> vox754: works as  intended, thank you!
[01:06] <broman> coo... cooo...
[01:06] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: try modprobing it again
[01:07] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[01:07] <Pelo> zenmonk,  it will run through the installation proceedure again and let you answer questions if there were any , like what port to use or password or stuff like that , depending on the package
[01:07] <zenmonk> Pelo: so it just sets the settings back to default or it reinstalls entirely?
[01:08] <Pelo> zenmonk,  default
[01:08] <aryr> is there a auto app to unzip & install tar.gz ?
[01:08] <Pelo> zenmonk,  for more infor type  man dpkg
[01:08] <ShackJack> dylanmoore: P.S. Good troubleshooting guide here if you haven't seen it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[01:08] <BENN92647> whateve...I LOVE LINUX!, there got that out of the way...sorry ubotu, had to say it :)
[01:08] <zenmonk> Pelo: The only time I saw this was when synaptic was interreupted, a package was labeled as broken, how would dpkg --configure fix that (that is what the message recommended)?
[01:08] <Pelo> aryr, right click
[01:09] <ShackJack> BENN92647: Linux loves you...
[01:09] <BENN92647> anyone here playing World of Warcraft on Linux right now?
[01:09] <BENN92647> *shackjack i know :)
[01:09] <sabgenton> vox754: if i just mount root then chroot /mnt/ubuntu is that enough or do i need to mount other stuff to
[01:09] <ShackJack> BENN92647: Oy! not this again ;)
[01:09] <Pelo> zenmonk, I don'T know, I thought you wanted general info, I didn'T know you were nit-piking
[01:09] <BENN92647> LOL!
[01:09] <__mikem> what starts with tr and rhymes with poll
[01:09] <BENN92647> but the wine guys they suck
[01:09] <sabgenton> I want to apt-get some stuff on my ubuntu partion
[01:10] <aryr> rigth click ?
[01:10] <zenmonk> Pelo: I was just trying to understand what it does, I'm not even sure what is meant when it says a package is broken
[01:10] <BENN92647> all they say is go to forum, but its a maze and i get lost
[01:10] <vox754> sabgenton, maybe just get the debian packages and install them with dpkg?
[01:11] <Pelo> zenmonk,  broken pakages are packages that donT' work,  for any number of reason, reconfiguring them usualy does the trick
[01:11] <isaac_> !samba

[01:11] <BENN92647> if your new Linux DOES love wireless internet and it's soooo easy to get it going
[01:11] <sabgenton> vox754: would as i described do the trick though?
[01:11] <BENN92647> just thought i wouldsay that
[01:11] <ShackJack> zenmonk: man dpkg has deets, but  --configure: Reconfigure an unpacked package. If -a  or  --pending  is  given      instead  of  package, all unpacked but unconfigured packages are  configured.
[01:11] <Nutubuntu> aryr do you sometimes use the nick "pawan" by any chance?
[01:12] <aryr> nope
[01:12] <sabgenton> vox754: as it is easy for me
[01:12] <Nutubuntu> K ... thanks :)
[01:12] <BENN92647> ok, so all you masters, one of you has to be playing WoW and I just need to figure out why its hanging
[01:12] <vox754> sabgenton, I don't know. Try it then tell me. he he.
[01:12] <sabgenton> ha
[01:12] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: I have to leave soon, but if you have to add "ndiswrapper" to a modprobe config file, or you'll have to always modprobe after you reboot.
[01:12] <__mikem> I spy with my little eyes something that rhymes with poll
[01:13] <Pelo> BENN92647, doing it with wine ?  try asking in #winehq
[01:13] <sabgenton> vox754: PriceChild said it was fine
[01:13] <xorgdestroye3> dylanmoore: sorry, but I don't remember which file it is
[01:13] <BENN92647> uggh Pelo they arent any help but I will try again
[01:13] <sabgenton> i just wasn't shure if i need to mount more than root
[01:13] <Jamesinator> Hello, I'm using SiS 315PRO PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter or a SiS 315e video card with 32mb memory. Unfortunately, the default driver used for this type of card seems to be a generic one that will render even the most basic of 3D about as quickly as it takes grass to grow. Is there any way to speed up rendering or use a better driver? I've been googling for over an hour and a half but the results have only turned up more people w
[01:13] <vox754> yes we are all masters and we like playing WoW at the same time we help people on irc
[01:14] <isaac_> k, dumb question. i man smb.conf     and i cant get out of it

[01:16] <Pelo> nick_,  are those hdd mounted ?
[01:16] <dylanmoore> my computer locked up.  who was just telling me about something to do wtih ndiswrapper and a broadcom chipset
[01:16] <ShackJack> nick_: Err... Add "Bookmark"...
[01:16] <Jamesinator> vox754: How old it is doesn't make a difference, it was able to render Oblivion and other advanced 3D games perfectly under Win2000/WinXP with the correct, but proprietary for windows, driver.
[01:16] <nick_> Pelo a bunch of hdd's that are mounted in dmraid keep showing up
[01:17] <Nutubuntu> nick_,  you *should* be able to right-click and remove from the sideplane
[01:17] <Pelo> nick_,  ah and you want them to disappear ? I donT' think you can
[01:17] <nick_> Pelo above the line that separates the favorites
[01:17] <vox754> Jamesinator, that is a shame, then. Search the manufacturer site.
[01:17] <Nutubuntu> Oh, wait. HDs? sorry, I don't know if you can do that.
[01:17] <kahrytan> !fstab  > kahrytan
[01:17] <nick_> Pelo, welo the os thinks they arent mounted but they really are just in dmraid
[01:18] <ShackJack> Jamesinator: A 32MB card playing Oblivion - I don't think so ;)
[01:18] <Jamesinator> vox754: Please read my post more carefully. I've been googleing for over an hour and a half and this is by no means the first time I've tried to get support for the problem. The manufacturer has only supplied one generic driver.
[01:18] <nick_> Pelo this never happened to me in 6.10
[01:18] <dylanmoore> can anyone help me with a weird broadcom wireless ndiswrapper problem?
[01:18] <macafe> Hi... I'm using the ubuntu 7.04 in a toshiba ( 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) ), but my sound are not working...  in my dmesg I see ( ALSA /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.14/pci/hda/../../alsa-kernel/pci/hda/patch_si3054.c:244: si3054: cannot initialize. EXT MID = 0000  ), anyone help me
[01:18] <Jamesinator> ShackJack: It works surprisingly well, however the magic and other lighting effects bog it down considerably
[01:18] <Pelo> nick_,  will unmounting them keep you from using them in dmraid ?  remove them from fstab and they won't automount
[01:18] <Jamesinator> vox754: One generic driver, for linux, that is.
[01:19] <ShackJack> Jamesinator: It has to be more than 32MB as min requirements for Oblivion are considerably more...  I might double check the model number :)
[01:19] <nick_> Pelo, they are showing up because they aren't mounted
[01:19] <Jack_Sparrow> dylanmoore: if it is a bcm43xx the recommended way to get them working is fwcutter not ndiswrapper
[01:19] <_Somebody> ./j #gimp
[01:19] <Pelo> !sound | macafe  that's the only thing I can do for you
[01:19] <ubotu> macafe  that's the only thing I can do for you: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:19] <nick_> Pelo I don't have entries for them in the fstab
[01:19] <Pelo> nick_,  nothing umounted should show up in nautilus
[01:19] <Jamesinator> ShackJack: I'm quite sure of the card. It was able to run Oblivion just fine, be it a miracle or otherwise.
[01:19] <dylanmoore> jack_sparrow, right, i tired fwcutter and such, but i was unable to get that to work either.  if you can assist me with fwcutter issues, i could re-do it.
[01:20] <Pelo> nick_,  I donT' know then ,  sorry,  try looking in the forum
[01:20] <nick_> Pelo, when I right click it gives me the option to mount them
[01:20] <ShackJack> nick_: Check out... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountNtfsOnBoot?highlight=%28mount%29  Once mounted just Add bookmark to add to Places
[01:20] <vox754> Jamesinator, then that is all you got. I'm sorry. Then you need to complain to the developers that you won't buy their hardware. That is all you can do.    (The grass growing thing was funny, though.)
[01:20] <Pelo> nick_, I still don'T know sorry
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> dylanmoore: I have set several up. but I am in the middle of something atm..  It isnt hard... see the link that follows

[01:22] <Jamesinator> vox754: This is ridiculous, just google "315PRO PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter" and you'll find over a dozen people all with their own posts on the Ubuntu forums complaining about this, and the only inane comment that I've gotten, both this time and previously, has been "buy a new card." If the card was able to render advanced 3D with a Windows-only driver, it's beyond insane to expect that there isn't a compatible driver for Linux
[01:22] <ShackJack> Jamesinator: not really, if it's such an obscure card...
[01:23] <vox754> ShackJack, I know. He left, so it is no good to say anything else. Grr. Those damn hardware manufacturers.
[01:23] <isaac_> i need help with samba, i dont know what im doing

[01:25] <meta4ical> It's detecting my wireless card because when I click the box in the top right of gnome I see a list of all the networks in the neighbourhood, including mine
[01:25] <meta4ical> but when I try to connect to my network it goes for about 2 minutes and fails to connect
[01:26] <meta4ical> I have no wireless security set, and wondering why this is happening?
[01:26] <tom33> please can someone help me? I've installed beryl and the movies won't run in movie player while beryl is running
[01:26] <isaac_> meta4ical, whats the ssid?
[01:26] <tom33> how do i fix this?
[01:26] <ShackJack> vox754: Dang I found the driver for his card - took all of 1 min. Googling... http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsispart1.shtml#introduction
[01:26] <meta4ical> issac_: it's dd-wrt
[01:27] <vox754> ShackJack, I won't take a look since I suppose is the "generic" one. I don't think he was stupid, but stubborn.
[01:27] <meta4ical> I'm wondering if maybe I should try setting encryption up, and then trying =/
[01:27] <ShackJack> tom33: Check out #ubuntu-effects or #beryl for help ;)
[01:28] <isaac_> meta4ical, you might, what kind of router is it?
[01:28] <mobtek_> Hi, I just built my new system and made it an xp/ubuntu dual boot setup. Problem is, on my last setup I had a dedicated Ubuntu install and backed up all my files to a 500gb SATA drive, formatted to 'Linux' and on installing the drive in my new system it's coming up as an unknown filesystem and I can't access it. I've tried manually mounting the drive to receive an unknown 'LVM2_member' error and GParted can't recognize the format as well
[01:28] <mobtek_> . Any clues?
[01:28] <meta4ical> wrt54g v6.0
[01:28] <meta4ical> flashed with dd-wrt v23 sp3
[01:28] <vox754> tom33, that happens a lot. Do not play movies or do not use beryl, those are your options.
[01:28] <isaac_> tbh im not quite sure. srry :(
[01:29] <Parisi_Work> hmm
[01:29] <towlieba> hi i booted form the ubuntu cd and in all the file system windows i see a bunch of strange characters. does anyone know why i might get this ?
[01:29] <isaac_> thats a pretty stable router
[01:29] <hvgotcodes> i just installed ubuntu
[01:29] <meta4ical> isaac_: Well thanks, no harm in trying :) I'll try with WEP encryption up and see if I make any progress, I'll let you guys know in a few minuntes
[01:29] <meta4ical> minutes*
[01:29] <hvgotcodes> the fancy effects work, but i dont have cube
[01:29] <hvgotcodes> how do i edit them?
[01:30] <ShackJack> hvgotcodes: check out #ubuntu-effects for help with thta ;)
[01:30] <Lambac1> Anyone feel like helping me with a permission/auto mount problem ? I have used some forum help , I'm close just can't fix the last 2 .
[01:30] <hvgotcodes> ok thanx
[01:30] <vox754> hvgotcodes, you are not using the cube, you are using some other lightweight desktop effects. You need to download other things.
[01:30] <hvgotcodes> how about installing dwm?
[01:30] <vox754> !compiz > hvgotcodes
[01:31] <random1> Okay so like I've got an NTFS external harddrive, and I can copy shit off of it, but I can't put anything onto it from my linux machine. =/

[01:32] <towlieba> hi i booted form the ubuntu cd and in all the file system windows i see a bunch of strange characters. does anyone know why i might get this ?
[01:32] <d4rkmonkey> towlieba, didn't quite understand you, can you try to rephrase?
[01:32] <mobtek_> Okay, Ubuntu is installed and running happily from the HD. Now, second problem, and this seems to be a biggie -- under my old Ubuntu setup I backed up my data type a 500gb SATA drive with two partitions formatted to 'Linux'. Now, under my new setup, they aren't recognized. Trying to manually mount them gives me an unrecognized 'LVM2_member' error and GParted gives me an 'unknown' under Filesystem and refuses to let me do anything but for
[01:32] <mobtek_> mat it. Any help?
[01:32] <towlieba> wait its not just file system windows. any program i open has a series of blocks in the titlebar of the window
[01:33] <towlieba> d4rkmonkey, thats for you
[01:33] <ShackJack> towlieba: Could be either slight glitch in CD burn or memory/video issues...
[01:33] <towlieba> hmm i have suspected memory problems
[01:33] <gravemind> hey, anybody know if the audacious in the repos is the current version
[01:33] <d4rkmonkey> towlieba, yeah I have no idea what that is lol
[01:33] <ShackJack> towlieba: Try going to Fonts preferences and change fonts for title bars..
[01:33] <gravemind> I guess I could check the internets if I weren't lazy

[01:34] <Tecmaniaco> Hola Sonoman
[01:35] <vox754> random1, since always NTFS is read only in linux. Recently this ntfs-3g driver has proven useful, but it may not work sin NTFS remains a close source Microsoft partition.

[01:35] <ShackJack> towlieba: That's a little long - but you might want to check CD for defects...
[01:36] <Tecmaniaco> dejennosque onda que has instalado recientemente
[01:36] <towlieba> ive used it a few times recently and its worked fine...
[01:36] <what_the_deuce> ShackJack: empty
[01:36] <ShackJack> towlieba: You should try chaning the font first as I suggested... but with CD boot -taking so long could be memory - which you can also use CD to check..
[01:36] <vox754> towlieba, maybe it is trying hard to detect all your hardware.

[01:36] <SkiGuy> anyone get Dreamweaver CS3 to run under wine?
[01:36] <d4rkmonkey> SkiGuy, have you checked the Wine App Database?
[01:37] <ShackJack> random1: vox754: I have found ntfs-3g read/write to be very reliable...
[01:37] <krammer> any reason my computer freezes ? I am using 2gig of ram??
[01:37] <ShackJack> SkiGuy: Nope - best I could get was MX
[01:37] <SkiGuy> yea. i've checked the database
[01:37] <SkiGuy> says it's not supported
[01:37] <d4rkmonkey> SkiGuy, I got dreamweaver 8 to work in Dapper, haven't tried in Feisty yet
[01:37] <SkiGuy> or at least that it won't install
[01:37] <d4rkmonkey> SkiGuy, I'll give you link I used to get 8 working, maybe it'll work for CS3?
[01:37] <ShackJack> krammer: You'll need to provide more deets -- installing? using specific proggie, etc...

[01:41] <towlieba> ShackJack, 756mb
[01:41] <curare> Pici: yeah that's coming close :) a nicer solution ist just typing something like "man:sudo"  in the browser addressbar =)
[01:41] <Pici> curare: Theres also man2html, which is probably closer to what you're looking for
[01:41] <krammer> join the crowd
[01:41] <what_the_deuce> any ideas why gl desktop now displays... wierd now?
[01:41] <ShackJack> towlieba: Yeah, that'll rock the ubuntu house ;)

[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> SkiGuy, sorry that I can't be more helpful then.
[01:41] <curare> Pici: i know man2html, but a tool like bwana does the same "on the fly"
[01:42] <Tecmaniaco> whats up roy
[01:42] <ShackJack> towlieba: Yeah, but I always make it anyway as I think it's used for hibernate, et al... I may be mistaken....

[01:42] <ShackJack> towlieba: It's nice to have J.I.C...
[01:43] <nickrud> towlieba, you definitely need swap for hibernate, I had to make a larger one ...

[01:50] <Emperor886> Does Ubuntu have a partition editor?
[01:51] <Riyonuk__> Hi
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> Emperor886, the live CD does, and theres one you can download called GParted
[01:51] <LiberCogito> Emeror886: It uses the Gnome editor.
[01:51] <kev_> hey guys when I do this "sudo echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/modules" I get "bash: /etc/modules: Permission denied" could anyone enlighten me??
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> Emperor886, I believe that you need to boot off of GParted if you want to use that one.
[01:51] <Riyonuk__> Was hoping someone could tell me what program is being used here? The one that counts the e-mail messages on the top? http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/45804697/?qo=8&q=fluxbox&qh=boost%3Apopular+age_sigma%3A24h+age_scale%3A5

[02:00] <LiberCogito> BENN92647: Do you have the hand pointer, the mouse pointer, or both?
[02:00] <sabgenton> why use sudo

[02:02] <BENN92647> LINUX rules!  if you want to make it easy, just manually input all the information in linux for your connection...subnet mask,default gateway IP address and LINUX will do the rest
[02:02] <BENN92647> Windows sucks
[02:02] <ShackJack> meta4ical: You can go to synaptic and sort by cat .. .though it will want to remove meta package ubuntu-desktop for many things... evolution, etc...
[02:02] <hvgotcodes> anyone help me get over the post-install woes?
[02:02] <LiberCogito> BENN92647: If you haven't lready done your WOW updates, go do them manually.
[02:03] <d4rkmonkey> seems like C&C 95 works better in Dapper than it does in Feisty o_O
[02:03] <vox754> meta4ical, updates are just security updates, there are no general updates. So you should update everything.
[02:03] <curare> BENN92647: btw, there are tutorials out there on how to install WoW on linux using Cedega
[02:03] <ShackJack> Elvis85: You might be better off asking in cedega or wine channel...
[02:03] <LiberCogito> hvgotcodes: Be more specific, and maybe.
[02:03] <meta4ical> ShackJack: Yeah after some deliberation that's what I did, can't be too picky in my first 15 minutes anyways
[02:03] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, you can comment that to wine developers on in launchpad in the ubuntu package.
[02:03] <LiberCogito> Curare: He isn't using Cedega.
[02:03] <hvgotcodes> well i cant connect to wireless
[02:03] <dylanmoore> hello everybody, i was wondering if anyone could help me with a bcm43xx connection issue with wep
[02:03] <BENN92647> * liber cognito-yes and i have like 10 .exe's LOL not sure if going directly to EoE.exe is the way i am supposed to do it
[02:03] <hvgotcodes> eth1 is the wirelss card
[02:03] <meta4ical> Ubuntus got some sexy servers ... clocking 1100 kb/s
[02:03] <hvgotcodes> but i cant ping yahoo
[02:03] <d4rkmonkey> vox754, I might later...
[02:03] <curare> LiberCogito: perhaps he should xD
[02:04] <Elvis85> Shackjack: I tried that, but some people seem to think it's because my drivers aren't up to date
[02:04] <BENN92647> *liber cognito sorry WoW.exe
[02:04] <Frogzoo_> bvcxA qweryuio] \
[02:04] <Slunt> can anyone help me install ubuntu to a virtual pc
[02:04] <Elvis85> so I wanted to try and use the fglrx drivers today
[02:04] <Frogzoo_> oops
[02:04] <BENN92647> hi Elvis :)
[02:04] <LiberCogito> Curare: Isn't the entire point of open source why pay if you don't have to?
[02:04] <BENN92647> LOL!
[02:04] <Elvis85> but when i restart after that I just get a blank screen
[02:04] <curare> you don't actually have to pay for cedega
[02:04] <ShackJack> Slunt: Check out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualMachines?highlight=%28virtual%29
[02:04] <LiberCogito> Curare: Wine can run WOW at native speed, it just takes work,.
[02:04] <BENN92647> i hate cedega
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Elvis85: thats mostly because ati sucks for linux.
[02:04] <curare> in case of WoW you don't need to pay
[02:05] <LiberCogito> Curare: I'd rather get something working than be lazy and pirate.
[02:05] <BENN92647> I wish i didnt have to
[02:05] <Elvis85> hey benn ;)
[02:05] <inflex> what's a webcam viewer tool in Ubuntu?
[02:05] <BENN92647> those wine guys gave me a headache
[02:05] <Elvis85> @curare: I would be very interested in a solution without cedega
[02:05] <curare> LiberCogito: no it's not pirated. there is (was ? unsure now..) a free version you can get per  CVS. but it doesnt include some features
[02:06] <Elvis85> but even in the wine channel they recommended me to just wait for the cedega support or use windows :p

[02:06] <curare> to be honest: i work on a mac, i play on windows and i WORK on linux ;)
[02:06] <d4rkmonkey> lol BENN92647
[02:06] <arcan> 
[02:06] <Elvis85> that would be great LiberCogito
[02:06] <ShackJack> arenner: If they're from the repos then no...
[02:07] <Elvis85> I've tried it from the repos but that just ran very very slow
[02:07] <d4rkmonkey> o_O I think I scared arcan away
[02:07] <Elvis85> with 5 fps or so

[02:07] <sabgenton> LiberCogito:do you know what sudo  chroot /mnt/bla su means
[02:08] <arooni> how do i resinstall grub if i cant boot from a cd drive
[02:08] <Elvis85> and i don't have enough knowledge of compiling from source yet to fix it
[02:08] <sabgenton> LiberCogito: i don't get the su bit
[02:08] <BENN92647> my mom says I was born off topic..ok so back to WoW

[02:08] <BENN92647> let me try to see if i can launch off the launcher.exe
[02:08] <hvgotcodes> is there a text file where the wireless network config is?
[02:09] <astro76> sabgenton, yeah the su on the end does not make sense
[02:09] <cables> Is there any way to change GNOME's tooltip delay? It's really annoying to have them constantly pop up with no delay whatsoever...
[02:09] <EnforcerMP> Hi.
[02:09] <Slunt> is there anyway to install the ubuntu 7 on ms virtual pc?
[02:09] <Elvis85> thanks @LiberCogito

[02:10] <sabgenton> astro76: some blog showed it for recovering ubuntu
[02:10] <vox754> d4rkmonkey, actually do that and see the effect for yourself
[02:10] <BENN92647> well i can wait for WoW for a bit.  I am glad taht the internet works...just forthe even newer people, linux loves wireless internet cards all you have to do is set up the connection manually.  takes like 5 minutes....BRB
[02:10] <vox754> !hi > d4rkmonkey
[02:10] <meta4ical> I've just finished installing and updating Ubuntu for the first time, could anyone point me to where I get video drivers for my Radeon x1550? I can't see them in the synaptic package manager

[02:10] <CompIsMyRx> !hi > CompIsMyRx
[02:10] <LiberCogito> BENN92647: Mind if I PM you?

[02:11] <hvgotcodes> is there a way to refresh?
[02:11] <BENN92647> by ubotu ")
[02:11] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: has this guide worked for you to run WoW smoothly, or did you still have to do extra tweaking?
[02:11] <ShackJack> BENN92647 has left - thank god!
[02:11] <meta4ical> lol
[02:11] <Elvis85> because i have installed wine from the same repository and I was only able to run WoW at like 5 fps
[02:12] <Slunt> WTB help install ubuntu to a virtual pc
[02:12] <meta4ical> ShackJack: Don't worry another newb has arrived to bother you, : )
[02:12] <Elvis85> and still had choppy sound with the soudbuffersize fix
[02:12] <meta4ical> ShackJack: I really don't know where to begin .. but I'm sure drivers for my chipset and video card and soundcard need to be installed, and I'm at a loss as to where to look
[02:12] <meta4ical> I can't see anything in Synaptic
[02:12] <CompIsMyRx> Elvis85: try running WoW with -opengl
[02:13] <ShackJack> meta4ical: Err... what card?

[02:13] <meta4ical> sapphire radeon x1550 pci-e 256mb
[02:13] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: I *think* that was the guide I used, I installed wow back on dapper, upgraded and it upgraded fine, but I got bored with wow and deleted it.  -opengl helped with a lot
[02:13] <arooni> ie..e grub isn't loading when i boot up
[02:13] <arooni> how shoul di fix thiS
[02:13] <CompIsMyRx> meta4ical: fglrx
[02:13] <meta4ical> I wanted to do some light gaming with counterstrike 1.6 .. is that the right driver?
[02:13] <Frogzoo_> Elvis85: you using the budgetdedicated repo?

[02:13] <CompIsMyRx> meta4ical: you have to download it yourself, outside of synaptic. Ubuntu can't package it with because of restrictions

[02:14] <ShackJack> meta4ical: did you start restricted drivers manager?
[02:14] <arooni> ShackJack: can i do that with just a 128mb usb drive?
[02:14] <CompIsMyRx> !envy | meta4ical
[02:14] <ubotu> meta4ical: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[02:14] <LiberCogito> meta4ical: it'll do it for you, at least the video card
[02:14] <curare> arooni: you could boot from live cd, mount your HD and try to fix the problem
[02:15] <arooni> curare: for some reason my mobo is not recognizing my plextor cd rom drive :(
[02:15] <CompIsMyRx> uh, someone should update the "envy" command on ubotu
[02:15] <meta4ical> no thank you
[02:15] <arooni> ;((
[02:15] <Elvis85> i thought i used the budgetdedicated
[02:15] <Elvis85> but just to be sure i will try it again
[02:15] <ShackJack> meta4ical: restricted driver manager?
[02:15] <meta4ical> but a place to download the windows fonts might be nice, most of these are hurting my eyes
[02:15] <curare> arooni: perhaps a BIOS setting problem ?
[02:15] <LiberCogito> ComplsMyRX: I've used Envy on 5 PCs with no issues.
[02:15] <CompIsMyRx> LiberCogito: So have I
[02:15] <ShackJack> meta4ical: see ubuntuguide.org
[02:15] <arooni> curare: i suppose... i'm really frusterated
[02:15] <vox754> CompIsMyRx, that is the new factoid. The previous one was positive.
[02:15] <meta4ical> I'm already doing my card now with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[02:16] <towlieba> ShackJack, im having a problem when i go to install ubuntu at different stages my entire computer stops working and the caps and i think scroll lock leds flash non stop
[02:16] <ShackJack> meta4ical: DID YOU try restricted driver manager??
[02:16] <curare> arooni: then try to place your CDROM on top of the boot devices list in BIOS settings
[02:16] <CompIsMyRx> The only problem I had with Envy was it didn't install the 32-bit opengl drivers on my 64-bit system
[02:16] <meta4ical> shackjack: NO :(
[02:16] <ShackJack> meta4ical: Start it up from admin - easiest way to install driver...
[02:16] <LiberCogito> ComplsMyRX: I'm very recluctant to mess with linux + 64 bit :)
[02:17] <meta4ical> either I'm blind or it's not in the menu
[02:17] <arooni> curare: thats the thing.... theres no cd rom drive to move to the top... its a new mobo that gives second fidlde to my pata drives
[02:17] <ShackJack> towlieba: Sorry dunno - maybe you need to use alternate install cd...
[02:17] <meta4ical> found it
[02:17] <fredsa> hi guys. I'm trying get the built-in sound card on my motherboard to work. I've got a pci soundcard which works fine, but I can't find the built-in sound. My motherboard is an nForce2. Does anyone know where I should start?
[02:17] <meta4ical> ok it's downloading an ATI driver
[02:17] <LiberCogito> fredsa: chipset?
[02:18] <Roge> anyone know the package name to get mp3 playback in xmms ?
[02:18] <meta4ical> I need to restart, thanks Jack brb
[02:18] <CompIsMyRx> meta4ical: just know that ATI drivers are not the best on Linux (they can't do Beryl or Compiz without XGL)
[02:18] <EnforcerMP> OK. Sorry for the delay. One of my friends recently bought a Dell Inspiron 1521, and we are trying to install Ubuntu on it. However, when we put in the Live CD of Ubuntu 7.04, it cannot start GNOME. We get an error message saying "Failed to start the X Server ... It is likely that it is not set up cprrectly. ..."
[02:18] <ShackJack> !sound | fredsa (or try the #alsa chat)
[02:18] <ubotu> fredsa (or try the #alsa chat): 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] <vox754> fredsa, are you sure it isn't disabled automatically by the BIOS because of the PCI?
[02:18] <arooni> what does the 'UDMA' jumper setting for my cd rom srive meanm
[02:18] <hvgotcodes> people what do you need to know to help me with my wireless problem
[02:18] <EnforcerMP> Starting in safe graphics mode gives the same result.
[02:18] <EnforcerMP> Anyone have any ideas (searches have not turned up much.)
[02:19] <curare> arooni:  without the ability to boot from cd this kinda problem is unlikely to be solved ;)
[02:19] <Roge> hmm
[02:19] <fredsa> vox754, I hadn't thought of that. Yeah, I'll check that out first. Thanks for the suggestion.
[02:19] <Roge> n/m it worked, last time round mp3 wasnt supported or maybe that was fedora
[02:19] <asc> I'm trying to install 32-bit mplayer on 64-bit ubuntu. Anobody know how?
[02:19] <asc> *Anybody
[02:19] <vox754> arooni, you usually want those. Mean you can cache and transfer things faster.
[02:19] <CompIsMyRx> asc: why?
[02:19] <ShackJack> arooni: If you could make USB bootable you could though ;)
[02:20] <LiberCogito> ShackJacl: Where's the list of all the !'s?
[02:20] <curare> arooni:  the hardway would be to somehow boot to a dos shell and do the MBR fix (which would enable you to boot your windows)
[02:20] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: https://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:20] <asc> CompIsMyRx: So that it can mplay the types of wmv3 for which there aren't oss packages
[02:20] <CompIsMyRx> EnforcerMP: Is it the model with Nvidia or ATI graphics
[02:21] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: use tab to autocomplete name in IM ;)
[02:21] <LiberCogito> ShackJack:  Thanks!
[02:21] <EnforcerMP> Comp: My friend is checking right now.
[02:21] <CompIsMyRx> asc: there is a codec set for 64-bit that can do that
[02:21] <EnforcerMP> The answer in a few seconds.
[02:21] <LiberCogito> IRC is new to me.  >.<
[02:21] <asc> CompIsMyRx: Do you know what it's called?
[02:21] <CompIsMyRx> asc: medibuntu
[02:21] <EnforcerMP> CompIsMyRX: ATI Radeon.
[02:21] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: Tab complete makes life easier :) I was using IRC for a while b4 I figured it out :(
[02:21] <CompIsMyRx> !medibuntu | asc
[02:21] <ubotu> asc: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[02:22] <asc> CompIsMyRx: Okay. Are we looking for the w32 codecs package from them?
[02:22] <doms> hi
[02:22] <CompIsMyRx> asc: the package is called w64codecs
[02:23] <asc> CompIsMyRx: Thanks. I'll a'give it a try.
[02:23] <CompIsMyRx> EnforcerMP: have you tried the VESA graphics?
[02:23] <doms> anybody knows were i can get the matrix 3d desktop ,  i found it in youtube videos  and that was cool,?
[02:23] <avis> my totem uses us about 90-100% of the cpu resources for a few minutes after launching.  after the couple of minutes have passed it goes back to a 9% cpu resources according to top.  i dont know why it would use some much resources/cause totem to studder in mp3 playback
[02:23] <EnforcerMP> CompIsMyRx: I would I specify to use that usinbg a Live CD?
[02:23] <CompIsMyRx> doms: this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYgV2GlsufI
[02:23] <ShackJack> EnforcerMP: You tried starting in VGA mode ?
[02:24] <CompIsMyRx> EnforcerMP: it's an option near the bottom of the screen after bootup
[02:24] <Elvis85> what windows version would be recommended for running WoW in wine?
[02:24] <AnRkey> avis, are you playing the file from a network share?
[02:24] <EnforcerMP> CompIsMyRx: Thanks. Will try right now.

[02:24] <doms> ComplsMyrx: cooooooooooooooool
[02:24] <avis> AnRkey, no i am not
[02:24] <AnRkey> Elvis85, use xp mode
[02:25] <CompIsMyRx> EnforcerMP: the problem is that there are no drivers that support your card out of the box in Linux. You have to install them from ati
[02:25] <Elvis85> in cedega for example i have to use win98
[02:25] <CompIsMyRx> !beryl | doms
[02:25] <AnRkey> Elvis85, it was laggy for my though

[02:25] <doms> ComplsMyrx: were i can get that 3d matrix desktop
[02:25] <AnRkey> avis, have you tried other players?
[02:25] <doms> ComplsMyrx: yeahhhhhh i have already installed beryl
[02:25] <Elvis85> @AnRkey with laggy, do you mean a low fps as well?
[02:25] <avis> no i haven't.  will try.  not sure why totem wouldn't work though.  let me check
[02:26] <ShackJack> doms: Check out Compiz Fusion - it's the way forward ;)

[02:26] <AnRkey> Elvis85, yeah and it does not support all the direct x features so it's not as "pretty" as it would be in Micro-and-Soft Windows
[02:26] <towlieba> I have a total of 1.2GB ram. is 512mb a good swap size ?
[02:26] <EnforcerMP> CompIsMyRx: So, if manage to boot the Live CD, how would I go about installing this proprietary driver once Ubuntu has been installed?
[02:27] <ShackJack> towlieba: swap should be 1.5 2 x ram
[02:27] <EnforcerMP> (Boot the Live CD and get in GNOME, that is).
[02:27] <towlieba> 3GB ?
[02:27] <ShackJack> towlieba: 1.5 to 2 X RAM
[02:27] <Elvis85> well it doesn't have to look as pretty as in windows
[02:27] <CompIsMyRx> !fglrx | EnforcerMP
[02:27] <ubotu> EnforcerMP: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:27] <towlieba> oh
[02:27] <AnRkey> Elvis85, the fps was bad too
[02:27] <Elvis85> would just be awesome if it worked without crashing
[02:27] <Elvis85> hmm damn
[02:27] <avis> AnRkey, yes in xmms it doesn't eat up cpu time.  i am in xmms and its about 4%
[02:27] <rockets> EnforcerMP: gksu restricted-manager
[02:27] <Elvis85> that was the same problem i had before
[02:27] <ShackJack> towlieba: 2 GB min ;)
[02:27] <towlieba> well i will make it 1gb i dont need more than that
[02:27] <AnRkey> Elvis85, about 25 to 40 fps
[02:27] <EnforcerMP> Thanks ubotu and rockets.
[02:27] <towlieba> 2 gb ?? isnt that overkill ?
[02:27] <Metafour> ShackJack: You broked my compuda. lol.
[02:27] <ShackJack> towlieba: Ummm yes, you do....
[02:28] <EnforcerMP> I guess that's what the Restricted Drivers Manager is for after all :-)
[02:28] <ShackJack> towlieba: do the math :)
[02:28] <Elvis85> so i can either choose to have low fps in wine, or a crashing game in cedega :p
[02:28] <CompIsMyRx> doms: here's the emerald theme http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Yet+Another+Matrix+Emerald+Theme?content=53061 Try #ubuntu-effects for more info
[02:28] <ShackJack> Metafour: I didn't break anything...
[02:28] <vox754> ShackJack, towlieba I would say 1 GB is enough in most cases. Unless you really need to hibernate alot. maybe this will cahnge in the future with 64 bit processors and 8 or more GB RAM
[02:28] <CompIsMyRx> EnforcerMP: yep
[02:28] <vox754> !thanks | EnforcerMP
[02:28] <ubotu> EnforcerMP: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:28] <Metafour> ShackJack: Very true, but I can no longer boot into Ubuntu after following your advice lol :P
[02:28] <towlieba> well i dont think i will hibernate cause this is a desktop not a laptop
[02:28] <AnRkey> avis, maybe see if it's a bug listed in launchpad, if not report it and all the details on how to reproduce the problem so some1 can try fix it
[02:28] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Wine is worth trying,  I hate native speed in mine,
[02:28] <rockets> You can never have *too much* ram.
[02:28] <ShackJack> vox754: towlieba: I assume hibernation so 1.5 to 2 is a good benchmark and most drives have the space...
[02:28] <Elvis85> it must be possible, though, no? i've seen people report it working
[02:29] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: *had
[02:29] <Parisi_Work> I would like 2 gig would be the sweet spot for for me, but 1 gig is perfect for most users.
[02:29] <AnRkey> Elvis85, i dual boot at the moment
[02:29] <towlieba> ShackJack, like i said its a desktop so i dont forsee hibernating
[02:29] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito well still installing at the moment but definitely trying
[02:29] <avis> ok AnRkey.  i'll do that.  where do i file the bug ?
[02:29] <Metafour> ShackJack: I went into the restricted drivers window and enabled/downloaded the ati drivers. When I restarted Ubuntu it went through perfectly fine until it reached the point where it should be loading the login screen, and it was black.
[02:29] <EnforcerMP> ubotu, if you're a bot, then you pass the Turing test as far as I'm concerned :-)
[02:29] <dissection> There is a screen on: 30274.pts-2.Renderman  <--- How do I attach to this?
[02:29] <vox754> !bot | EnforcerMP
[02:29] <ubotu> EnforcerMP: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:29] <Darter> I'm looking for the ability to webcam via IM, such as Yahoo Messenger or MSN...I can't find anything for Giam...can someone steer me in the right direction?
[02:29] <Elvis85> @AnRkey that's what I had been doing so far, but i'm really tired of it
[02:30] <ShackJack> Metafour: Might have to tweak your xorg.conf resolution and/or refresh -- check monitor specs (I assume its LCD)
[02:30] <Metafour> It's a CRT
[02:30] <Elvis85> especially since wow is the only thing i have left in windows
[02:30] <AnRkey> Elvis85, i am a bf2 person myself and I can't wait for enemy territory quake wars to come out, gonna delete my microandsoft winblows partition
[02:30] <asc> CompIsMyRx: Didn't help much. The file type is 'wmv9dmo', if that helps at all.
[02:30] <AnRkey> Elvis85, u using cedega?
[02:30] <Metafour> ShackJack: Recovery mode only allows me to utilize the command line -- which being a newb I'm not familar with
[02:30] <Metafour> How exactly could I go about editing the xorg.conf?
[02:30] <Metafour> familiar*
[02:31] <ShackJack> Metafour: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:31] <Metafour> ShackJack: Better yet, WHAT am I supposed to be editing ;o
[02:31] <Elvis85> AnRkey I tried cedega today, and the fps was playable
[02:31] <vox754> towlieba, you should use hibernation even in desktops! Mine doesn't work so I live with it. But it is a must.
[02:31] <Metafour> Ubuntu detected my max res and refresh rate by default
[02:31] <ShackJack> Metafour: You can force refresh rates and set other resolutions -- just look you'll see where...
[02:31] <AnRkey> Elvis85, thats just it, playable is not enjoyable :(
[02:31] <Elvis85> @AnRkey: but the game crashed when on using hearthstone or similar things
[02:31] <ShackJack> Metafour: how do you known that?
[02:32] <Elvis85> @AnRkey and afterwards it crashed every time i wanted to log in that char
[02:32] <bob_sinclair> i have the following in feisty: The following packages have unmet dependencies: beryl-settings-bindings: Depends: python (< 2.5) but 2.5.1-0ubuntu3 is to be installed
[02:32] <Metafour> ShackJack: Because one of the first things I did after booting into Ubuntu was change the resolutin, it was stuck on 1600 x 1200
[02:32] <AnRkey> Elvis85, yeah, frustrating, I had the same problems with bf2
[02:32] <rockets> In my experience WoW worked just fine under Wine
[02:32] <Elvis85> :-(
[02:32] <Metafour> and it detected all of my known resolutions and the highest refresh rate which is 85hz
[02:32] <rockets> I played it for 3 months or so
[02:32] <rockets> under wine that is
[02:32] <dem0n> how do i play .avi formats?
[02:32] <ShackJack> Metafour: I'm confused - you said you couldn't log in - how did you change res?
[02:32] <AnRkey> Elvis85, http://www.enemyterritory.com/ << it's gonna have a linux client :D woohoo, i can't wait
[02:32] <Metafour> I meant when I booted into Ubuntu for the first time ever
[02:33] <rockets> dem0n: if you open the movie in totem, it will autodetect what codec you need and prompt you to install it
[02:33] <Tim> alright, im trying to install ubuntu on my brother's laptop instead of windows, i ran "chkdsk /f" in windows before, then let it run, then rebooted into the feisty fawn live cd. now gparted is saying it can't shrink the windows partition because there are bad disk sectors.. is there any fix to this?
[02:33] <Elvis85> AnRkey -> games that run in linux rule ;-)
[02:33] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine
[02:33] <Elvis85> ok giving wine another try now
[02:33] <ShackJack> Metafour: worse comes to worse, you can change driver from fglrx in xorg.conf to vesa to restore gui... sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:34] <ShackJack> Metafour: but likely an issue with resolutions refresh rate... nuke off highest reses... down to 1280x1024 whatever and see if it boots into that...
[02:34] <AnRkey> Elvis85, you gonna buy it too?
[02:34] <dem0n> it says there is no plugin to handle this movie
[02:34] <Metafour> ShackJack: Alright
[02:35] <LiberCogito> anyone know if a tool exists that will monitor CPU temp?
[02:35] <deliverance> Hey quick help on the etoile Desktop Envioronment.
[02:35] <ShackJack> Metafour: I'd check monitor docs to see what refresh for that default resolutin and for xorgcofn to do that vertrefresh 80.0-80.00 etc...
[02:35] <CompIsMyRx> asc: wmv9dmo? that might be a DRM'd file
[02:35] <vox754> LiberCogito, type "sensors" or "acpi -V"
[02:35] <deliverance> Got it installed trying to run it, any useful menu?
[02:36] <ShackJack> Metafour: or there's dpkg-configure xorg-xserver-fglrx or something like that...
[02:36] <jinx1591> need help cant download updates because of broken file in samba
[02:36] <kolperte> Hey guys, could someone hook me up with the helpline for failing graphics cards?
[02:36] <rockets> kolperte: helpline?
[02:36] <ShackJack> !resolution | kolperte
[02:36] <ubotu> kolperte: 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
[02:36] <Metafour> ShackJack: You're confusing me uhhhh, I think I have just have to change xorg.conf to use fglrx
[02:36] <CompIsMyRx> kolperte: failing how?
[02:36] <kolperte> ShackJack, thanks
[02:36] <ShackJack> Metafour: no -- vesa...
[02:36] <Metafour> why? =/
[02:37] <Metafour> I intend to game on my machine, doubt vesa can do
[02:37] <LiberCogito> kolperte: Or you can just ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:37] <ShackJack> Metafour: I thought fglrx wasn't working/
[02:37] <rockets> ShackJack: you should really stop giving fglrx advice :-P
[02:37] <deliverance> Do I start Desktop Environments from the command line or are they available through the Ubuntu Login screne?
[02:37] <Metafour> it isn't
[02:37] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito : I haven't tried those registry tweaks in wine yet, although i have tried the rest
[02:37] <hvgotcodes> what is eth1:avah
[02:37] <hvgotcodes> ?
[02:37] <jinx1591> have anyone had problem with samba after it updated
[02:37] <Elvis85> it's worth another shot though
[02:37] <Metafour> but would xorg.conf have edited itself to use it instead of vesa?
[02:37] <ShackJack> rockets: Why is that?
[02:37] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Try those tweaks!
[02:37] <Tim> alright, im trying to install ubuntu on my brother's laptop instead of windows, i ran "chkdsk /f" in windows before, then let it run, then rebooted into the feisty fawn live cd. now gparted is saying it can't shrink the windows partition because there are bad disk sectors.. is there any fix to this?
[02:37] <CompIsMyRx> deliverance: both. What are you trying to do exactly
[02:37] <Elvis85> @AnRkey: it'll depend on how much I'm still gaming by the time that comes out :p
[02:38] <CompIsMyRx> Tim: is it NTFS?
[02:38] <deliverance> Just installed Etoile in Ubuntu feisty... trying to get it running.
[02:38] <Metafour> ShackJack: Don't I have to tell xorg.conf to use the new driver?
[02:38] <Tim> ComplsMyRx: yes
[02:38] <rockets> Metafour: yes you do
[02:38] <CompIsMyRx> Tim: install ntfstools and run ntfsfix on the drive
[02:38] <Tim> ok.
[02:38] <ShackJack> Metafour: No the restrcited drivers manager should of changed it but take a look -- if it is fglrx and not working you can change to vesa to restore GUI
[02:38] <Metafour> ok
[02:38] <teer2> Q:  Is there a way to make Totem open a new window when new media is selected?  The default appears to be stopping the existing media playback and starting the new media.  :) TIA
[02:38] <Metafour> brb
[02:39] <ShackJack> Metafour: Your issue with black screen is likely a resolution/refresh conflict with your monitor...
[02:40] <asc> CompIsMyRx: It shouldn't be, but it's definitly not straight wmv9 (which plays just fine).
[02:40] <nadis> Hi, i want to install ubuntu 7.04 , i am now useing fc 7
[02:40] <deliverance> Got a couple other issues, wireless works in 2.6.15 but is broken in newer kernels. Does anyone know anything about madwifi breaking for Atheros chipsets in more recent revisions.
[02:40] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito it might not be a good idea for me to try and use opengl :p
[02:40] <nadis> how can i  reserve my data
[02:40] <Dimensions> hi guys  i am trying to restore my backup system ... after i did it ... it says Reboot and Select proper Boot device .. or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key ....... i tried to boot with live cd and reinstalled grub from grub terminal though it said succeeded but still i get same error .... what should i do ...
[02:40] <Elvis85> the login screen is half black
[02:40] <dissection> There is a screen on: 30274.pts-2.Renderman  <--- How do I attach to this?
[02:40] <Elvis85> and the game itself just looks like my char is on some kind of crazy drugs :p
[02:40] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Specs, please?
[02:40] <CompIsMyRx> asc: there are problems with many wmv9dmo files I've found. Support is basically hacked together because Microsoft won't release the code fore it
[02:41] <Elvis85> still need to try registry key though
[02:41] <nadis> ubuntu suppots 3d desktop well ?
[02:41] <ShackJack> nadis: Do you have separate partition for /home?
[02:41] <ShackJack> nadis: Yep...
[02:41] <Elvis85> Athlon XP 2600+, ATI Radeon 9250, 1.5gig ram
[02:41] <nadis> ShackJack:no ,,,
[02:41] <hanasaki> whats fam vs gamin and which should be installed for what
[02:41] <vladuz976> hi, my scim input method stopped working and I dont know why. can someone give me ideas where i can look to fix the problem? the keys triggering it dont do anything anymore
[02:41] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: You aren't doing anything stupid, like having beryl on at the moment?
[02:41] <deliverance> Nadis I'm using GL desktop on an intel graphics system.
[02:42] <ShackJack> nadis: Ah... well backup everything in /home - including hidden files ;)  When installing Ubuntu suggest make partition for /home
[02:42] <Elvis85> nope, don't even use beryl
[02:42] <deliverance> It's great except totem is broken with it turned on.
[02:42] <CompIsMyRx> asc: wmv9dmo can be many different actual codecs
[02:42] <asc> CompIsMyRx: They work okay with 32-bit mplayer though, with the extra codecs.
[02:42] <Elvis85> just a sec gonna try the registry tweaks
[02:42] <nadis> ShackJack:  ok , thanks
[02:42] <bill> hello
[02:42] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Okay
[02:42] <krammer> why not use Beryl?
[02:42] <ShackJack> krammer: Beryl's fine - just causes issue with 3d accell games sometimes..
[02:43] <ShackJack> krammer: And Beryl going out.. and being Compiz Fusion...
[02:43] <LiberCogito> krammer: Not everyone values eyecandy over performance
[02:43] <EnforcerMP> Still no dice.
[02:43] <krammer> the real reason i asked becuase i installed it and now sometimes my computer freezes
[02:43] <nadis> do you use compiz fusion now ?
[02:43] <LiberCogito> krammer: Specs?
[02:43] <ShackJack> LiberCogito: I fortunately have both :)
[02:43] <ShackJack> nadis: I do - it's pretty great...
[02:43] <nadis> krammer:freezes often...
[02:43] <LiberCogito> ShackJack: Oh, I do too.  On my desktop.
[02:43] <krammer> acer latop 1.66 duo 2.g of ram
[02:44] <EnforcerMP> Tried changing the graphics mode to the lowest possible (600 X 400) with F4, booted in safe graphics mode.
[02:44] <squirrel> anybody can help fix slow wireless connection?
[02:44] <EnforcerMP> Still the same error message.
[02:44] <EnforcerMP> Anything I might be doing wrong?

[02:44] <ubotu> squirrel: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:44] <squirrel> maximum download speed is about 13.7 Kb
[02:44] <krammer> i never i had a problem before but all of a sudden it freezes
[02:44] <malocite> is there anyone here who can direct me to a tutorial on how I can network two ubuntu machines?  I want to share files between two machines
[02:44] <ShackJack> squirrel: Good troubleshooting guide there ^^^
[02:44] <nadis>  ShackJack: i'm wonder if it is hard for me to install compiz fusion
[02:44] <Tim> ComplsMyRx: Should the ntfs partition be mounted before running ntfsfix?
[02:44] <deliverance> Malocite, don't use ftp. Pain in the ass in Linux.
[02:44] <LiberCogito> krammer: Video card?
[02:44] <ShackJack> nadis: I don't know your skill set, but take a look - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=fusion&titlesearch=Titles
[02:44] <krammer> ati
[02:44] <squirrel> i tried one of the troubleshooting
[02:45] <squirrel> from there
[02:45] <nadis>  ShackJack: thanks
[02:45] <LiberCogito> krammer: Sorry, I know jack about ATI.  I always use nvidia. :)
[02:45] <bill> i came across a website saying that ubuntu will kill your harddrive
[02:45] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: Changing the entry back to vesa allowed me to boot back in, but I still really need to be using fglrx
[02:45] <ShackJack> bill Wha? Where....
[02:45] <exyan> bill: it's atm working on it :)
[02:45] <bill> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104535
[02:45] <deliverance> Yet here we are bill, interesting.
[02:45] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: Is their a log or something I can check to see why it wouldn't work?
[02:45] <krammer> am i suppose to defrag or clean temp like windows for ubuntu
[02:46] <bill> go to that link
[02:46] <bill> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104535
[02:46] <LiberCogito> bill: Heh.  I can find you a website that says Illamas are secretly taking over the world, if I try hard enough... would you believe it?
[02:46] <vladuz976> hi, i need to type japanese at work and scim stopped working. i set it up according to the ubuntu's websites guide. can anybody help?] 
[02:46] <bill> i was j/w
[02:46] <bill> if it was true
[02:46] <malocite> deliverance: Wasn't planning on it, but isnt there something like in windows for sharing?
[02:46] <minerale> ok, I have a script inside a mounted volume that does some cleanup, I need the scrtip to unmount the volume its sitting on and then exit, but if I try to call unount it fails as there are open file handles, are there ways to solve that?
[02:47] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: It's liekly an issue with either refresh or resolution...  cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW    -- you can tweak xorg.conf to force refresh and or resolution but you need specs for your monitor "spported resolutions" etc..
[02:47] <LiberCogito> bill: Even if it was, thats a bug from when Feisty was in beta...
[02:47] <bill> ok
[02:47] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: Also learn about cp and mv commands to backup/restore your xorg... ;)
[02:47] <unagi> anyone here use maya?
[02:47] <LiberCogito> Bill: Which it no longer is :)
[02:47] <Tim> I'm trying to run ntfsfix on a partition to fix it, but I need to know if the partition needs to be mounted or if there is a different way to specify it?
[02:47] <exyan> m, well ubuntu will kill my hdd
[02:47] <bill> ok
[02:48] <meta4ical_> shackjack I know the basics of both :P
[02:48] <exyan> so what do all millions of users do now?
[02:48] <deliverance> Updating from dapper to edgy killed some filesystem info inside ubuntu, but data survived.
[02:48] <LiberCogito> Tim: I would assume it would need to be mounted
[02:48] <bill> j/w
[02:48] <deliverance> Fix problems for 5 years exyan.
[02:48] <ShackJack> krammer: If you intend to keep windows partition clean up as much as you can b4 installing...
[02:48] <Tim> LiberCogito: It keeps giving an error about it being a directory..
[02:48] <towlieba> i need help i cant install ubuntu when i get to the partitioning part it gets stuck when scanning for disks
[02:48] <ShackJack> towlieba: Ubuntu is not being nice to you, is it ;)
[02:49] <LiberCogito> Tim: Have you googled the exact error?
[02:49] <towlieba> no
[02:49] <Tim> no
[02:49] <Tim> i will try that
[02:49] <exyan> towlieba: when booting the livecd, push F6 and type in noapic noapic
[02:49] <krammer> I guess i meant to say how can I keep my unbuntu clean
[02:49] <LiberCogito> Tim: Ubuntu is a google OS.  :-p  You can fix nearly anything, so long as you're good with google.
[02:49] <exyan> towlieba: that may solve your hanging problems, but may cause usb problems :\
[02:49] <dissection> There is a screen on: 30274.pts-2.Renderman  <--- How do I attach to this?
[02:49] <calyth_> anyone used samba and pam_mount before?
[02:49] <towlieba> well thats only temporary right ?
[02:50] <Elvis85> LiberCogito: ok i just tried with all the tweaks in the link you gave me
[02:50] <LiberCogito> towlieba: Use the alternate install CD
[02:50] <calyth_> I'm curious, there's a file for /etc/pam.d/pammount where it asks me to include the file for every login method I have. So why can't I just move those line into the common-auth and common-session?
[02:50] <ShackJack> krammer: You generally don't need to defrag... but there are things you can do... Google around for some tips...
[02:50] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: How'd it go?
[02:50] <Elvis85> but if i run the game with -opengl i just get black background at login and char selection and half my icons invisible ingame
[02:50] <krammer> thanks for your knowledge have a good nite
[02:50] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Then disregard that particular tweak.
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> towlieba: two things 1.  reburn the iso, and burn it SLOW(2-4x is best)... if that doens't work, switch to the alternate install cd
[02:51] <deliverance> Has anyone tried Etoile v 0.2 can help me?
[02:51] <ShackJack> krammer: Nite!
[02:51] <Elvis85> and if i run without opengl my framerate is slow
[02:51] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: Did you by chance get that message I PMed you?
[02:51] <unagi> anyone here use maya?
[02:51] <Elvis85> 8-9 in tb and 13-14 outside of the city
[02:51] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: No I didn't get a message...
[02:51] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: it's prolly the noapic prob anyway
[02:51] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: How much ram does your video card have?
[02:51] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: it mostly causes hangups
[02:51] <Elvis85> i can however get 25 fps if i put the camera right over my head and zoom in to the ground :p
[02:51] <Elvis85> 128mb
[02:51] <atrus> network-manager in gnome will connect to my WPA2 access point, but not unencrypted open access points. How can i investigate/fix this?
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: probably..,  but i've saw burn probs.
[02:52] <ShackJack> exyan: What does that stand for / do? noapic ?
[02:52] <Elvis85> also in both cases the sound is still choppy
[02:52] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: burn probs don't hang at the same palce
[02:52] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: That might be why.  Google wow in wine ati FPS
[02:52] <meta4ical_> am I allowed to post 2 lines in here?
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: true..,
[02:52] <exyan> ShackJack: I got no idea tbh :) just that it helps prevent hangups
[02:52] <LiberCogito> elvis85:  I was running an nvidia card with 512
[02:52] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: Two's O.K. anymore use pastebin
[02:52] <meta4ical_> (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[02:53] <meta4ical_>  (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic" does not exist.
[02:53] <meta4ical_>  didn't work for me : (
[02:53] <exyan> LiberCogito: an nvidia 8100 512mb would barely run wow u know :> it's not all in the ram
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: you can't turn off apic on the live CDs?.. I dont use them, so i don't know.
[02:53] <towlieba> IndyGunFreak, i did that but not at a slow speed
[02:53] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Close any other apps that use sound before starting wow.
[02:53] <meta4ical_> that's the output I got from that command you gave me ShackJack, any ideas?
[02:53] <Elvis85> aaah
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> towlieba: well you can try that, but you may want to go with the alternate install cd
[02:53] <deliverance> Is anyone trying the new Etoile Desktop Environment being plugged on Slashdot?
[02:53] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: Nope - you're issue is jsut with refresh and resolution I'm guessing --
[02:53] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: all other sound apps are off
[02:53] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: you can, at least that's how I prevent my install that's currently @ 73% from hanging ;-)
[02:53] <towlieba> IndyGunFreak, what difference does it make if i use the alternate cd
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> Etoile?.. not even heard of it.
[02:53] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: those have nothing to do with fglrx... when you get black screen do you hear the login sound?
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: lol
[02:53] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: it's too bad i can't get an inbetween version of wine and cedega
[02:53] <meoblast001> hello
[02:53] <LiberCogito> exyan: I ran WoW in wine at native speed on a VAIO with a 2.8 core 2 duo, 1 gig for ram, and an nividia 7600 OC
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> towlieba: the alternate cd is text based..(still easy, but text based)... and it will get you pass finicky hardware.
[02:54] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: i want to make good music but dang it, i need VST
[02:54] <exyan> LiberCogito: you got the same fps as in windows ;-)?
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: lol, still working on that?
[02:54] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: Cedega gives me perfect sound, and my framerate is almost the same as in windows
[02:54] <LiberCogito> Elvis85:  YOu might want to try a different version of Wine
[02:54] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: i gave up
[02:54] <meoblast001> anyone here use LMMS?
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: what program did you do that with under windows?
[02:54] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: but it crashes on certain events, making me unable to login afterwards
[02:54] <LiberCogito> exyan: I never bothered to measure it, but if it was less, I never noticed.
[02:54] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: which of course makes the game unplayable
[02:55] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: I am so lost, the xorg.conf has like 4-5 lines all with resolutions and whatnot
[02:55] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: FL Studio (www.fruityloops.com)
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: have you checked to see if wine supports it?
[02:55] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: You did not answer prior question...
[02:55] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: no
[02:55] <meoblast001> it doesnt
[02:55] <exyan> well my desktop pc has windows on it, not only for my parents to work easy on it, but I myself jump on it from time to time to play some games ;-)
[02:55] <dem0n> yo can some one tell me how to get the codecs to play avi
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: oh ok... just a thought i had.
[02:55] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: And I told you re: monitor/docs/etc...
[02:55] <unagi> windows makes me sick
[02:55] <exyan> I just don't see gaming on linux at present
[02:55] <Elvis85> hmm maybe if i compiled some version of wine from source...
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: well, only other thing ic an think of, is installing Windows in a virtual environment.., and using it there.
[02:55] <meta4ical_> shackjack: Oh sorry, no it doesn't get that far, i never get a chance to login
[02:56] <LiberCogito> exyab: I sadly still dual boot on my desktop, because Wine can't do City of Heroes.
[02:56] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: how would i do that?
[02:56] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: Yes - but do you hear login sound - it's very important...
[02:56] <unagi> although i do rather enjoy media center
[02:56] <unagi> gaming on linux would be incredible
[02:56] <unagi> i dual boot vista
[02:56] <meta4ical_> No ;p
[02:56] <exyan> LiberCogito: I got only linux on my laptop tho, coz it's not speced for gaming :) but the 7200 spins dota pretty good! :)
[02:57] <tupa> how can I create automatic Makefiles ???
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: i'm not really familiar with it to be truthful, only vaguely, but basically how it works, you would create a virtual appliance w/ an XP disk, then basically you boot Ubuntu, and run XP "in a window".. ,so you could load XP Virtual appliance when youu wanted to run this vts program, and close it and use Ubuntu for general purposes
[02:57] <unagi> i really dont play games on my laptop but i still keep vista on here......its got a geforce go 7400
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> !vmware | meoblast001
[02:57] <ubotu> meoblast001: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:57] <LiberCogito> exyan: I installed Linux on my laptop because its a POS and thus runs much faster with ubuntu ;)
[02:57] <exyan> unagi: gaming on linux is a fantasy for most linux users :-)
[02:57] <Elvis85> or maybe i should just go out and but a new video card, and get rid of this damn unsupported ati :p
[02:57] <exyan> LiberCogito: what is a POS?
[02:57] <unagi> only because linux better utilizes hardware........
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: i'v eonly used vmware to boot some other versions of linux, never tried it with windows.
[02:57] <LiberCogito> exyan: Piece of $h17
[02:57] <unagi> i mean maya runs much more smoothly on ubuntu id love to see how games would run
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> Elvis85: if you have ATI, thats your best option.
[02:58] <exyan> unagi: but linux doesn't utilize money and commercialism :-)
[02:58] <unagi> of course not
[02:58] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: You can't possibly be a gamer if you believe that.
[02:58] <hvgotcodes> has avahi been breaking access to wireless networks?
[02:58] <unagi> but then i dont really understand what that has to do with the gaming companies
[02:58] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: well, my system came with windows, i dont have the disk
[02:58] <unagi> i mean, i would buy a game for linux
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: believe what?...
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> that ati sucks?
[02:58] <unagi> but thats only because i work in the industry =)
[02:58] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: NVIDIA is much better supported by most MMORPGs
[02:58] <exyan> LiberCogito: mm, well I love my laptop in spec and everything, I just didn't want it to be meant for gaming ;-)
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: oh ok.
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: i hate ATI, i have no prob with Nvidia, even under windows, i didn't like ATI
[02:58] <unagi> nvidia is much better supported by most anything
[02:59] <unagi> i cant stand ATI
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: but you'r right, i'm not a gamer
[02:59] <Elvis85> @IndyGunFreak: it seems that no matter what i try to get this game to run better, that's what everybody keeps recommending :p
[02:59] <unagi> i bought a tv tuner card from them and i wont buy ANYTHING from ati
[02:59] <exyan> oki reboot to my own ubuntu ^^
[02:59] <unagi> im getting less and less impressed with amd too
[02:59] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: Apologies, I misread what you wrote :)
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> Elvis85: well there you go...lol
[02:59] <exyan> irrsi 4ever, peace out ;-)
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: lol, np.. its a busy channel, easy to do.
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> unagi: I've got a PVR150, it works awesome in Linux.
[02:59] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Go buy an Nvidia 7600
[03:00] <IndyGunFreak> unagi: only thing that doesn't work is the remote, so i have to use ivtv to change channels.
[03:00] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: i never tried FL Studio on Ubuntu, just Fedora and Debian
[03:00] <unagi> i have an hp tv tuner but i dont think it works with ubuntu
[03:00] <Elvis85> Asus nVidia 7600 GS SILENT 512 Mb DDR2 + DVI + TV-out
[03:00] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: well, my guess is, if it didn't work on Debian, it probably won't work on ubuntu
[03:00] <dem0n> Hi how do i play an avi movie
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> !avi

[03:01] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: would that be the one?
[03:01] <unagi> !avi
[03:01] <unagi> phwew
[03:01] <roler> i have an old laptop running ubuntu 7.04 and the wireless card doesn't show in the applet in gnome. i have to manually configure it with /etc/network/interfaces... how can i make it so it's configurable with the gnome wireless applet?
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> unagi: you gotta be faster...lol
[03:01] <unagi> for a second i thought the ubotu didnt work anymore
[03:01] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: could this be the problem? # DISABLED_MODULES="ath_hal fc fglrx ltm nv"
[03:01] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: I think mine is made by BFG, but you can't go wrong with ASUS... though I'd check the hardware incompatibility list first
[03:01] <unagi> lol its weird being online while out at sea
[03:01] <meoblast001> IndyGunFreak: LMMS didnt work on Debian at all, not even the non VST version
[03:01] <unagi> i work on a cruise ship, how cool am i
[03:01] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: Where is that in?
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: wel, there's a chance it would work on ubuntu, but i'd say its remote.
[03:02] <meta4ical_> ShackJack:  /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: vmware though, its almost guaranteed to work, because it emulates the entire operating system, as opposed to just code.
[03:02] <unagi> anyone here use avant window navigator?
[03:02] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito ok I'll have a look, that was just the first one i found on a website of a local dealer
[03:02] <teer2> I love being able to share my computer files with people and feel like I own the software running on my computer again.
[03:02] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: VMware is crap.  VirtualBox ftw.
[03:03] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Just go to best buy or walmart :-p
[03:03] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: No -- you did not answer quesiton re: login sound... I'll assume yes you did hear it when you booted to black screen.... In which case it is a resolution/refresh issue with monitor...
[03:03] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito it's not even as expensive as I would've thought :p
[03:03] <Elvis85> lol we don't have walmart in belgium :p
[03:03] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: I said twice in a row No to that question =/
[03:03] <teer2> It's like 1980 all over again.  :)  Bye!
[03:03] <JBandP> startx gives me a no screens found error.   is this common?
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: i don't mess with it, just trying to give meoblast001 some suggestions
[03:03] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Excuse my silly american self ;)
[03:03] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: I did not see those replies...
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001:  http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=7036
[03:04] <unagi> lol after using linux aand then reinstalling windows i laughed when i had to accept 3 licenses and it said 'required to use your computer'
[03:04] <LiberCogito> meoblast001:  Go with VirtualBox before VMware

[03:04] <meta4ical_> ShackJack: I wrote "no ;p" and the first time a sentence containing no
[03:04] <LiberCogito> Ugh.  Why doesn't that tooltip say ctrl alt backspace?
[03:04] <voidmage> Is there a way to tell if something is using more than one core on a dual core system?
[03:05] <LiberCogito> voidmage: System monitor?
[03:05] <ShackJack> meta4ical_: You did not address me in those responses so I missed them...
[03:05] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: that's ok I know you guys aren't really aware of what happens across the ocean ;-)
[03:05] <voidmage> is there a way in top or something?
[03:05] <unagi> voidmage most of the time both cores are being used
[03:05] <bob_sinclair> i have serious issues with 2.6.20-16-386 kernel on two installations. seems common?
[03:05] <voidmage> would it show 100% or 200% in top?
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: is that the program?
[03:05] <Elvis85> seriously though i think i'll just throw away this damn ati and get a new nvidia
[03:05] <unagi> i would assume 100%
[03:05] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Hey!  I read BBC international edition news twice a day. :-p
[03:05] <Das> Let's be vague. Give me reasons Ubuntu wont install on a computer that Windows works fine on (If you want to be less vague: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=512208)
[03:06] <unagi> right now my cpu is 8% and 5%
[03:06] <Elvis85> will save myself and all the troubleshooters out there lots of time and effort :p
[03:06] <voidmage> because the program is showing 100% cpu in top, but overall only 50% cpu
[03:06] <voidmage> so i'd assume it's using only one core
[03:06] <unagi> that doesnt make sense
[03:06] <voidmage> any way to get it to use two short of rewriting it to do that?
[03:06] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: lol
[03:06] <meoblast001> virtual box?
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> !virtualbox

[03:06] <voidmage> i saw it go to 101 before and i've seen other stuff like firefox hit 180%
[03:06] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: okok i just forget that belgium isn't really noticable on the map :p
[03:07] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: You have yummy chocolate?
[03:07] <LiberCogito> Das: Use the alternate install CD?
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> meoblast001: bu ti think you'd still ahve to install windows "inside" of virtual box.
[03:07] <LiberCogito> meoblast001: You would install windows in virtual box, then install your program
[03:07] <Das> LiberCogito: I've tried 3 Ubuntu ones, and 1 Kubuntu one
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> Das: that should fix the prob.
[03:08] <meta4ical_> What does the 0 mean in Section "Extensions"
[03:08] <meta4ical_> 	Option	    "Composite" "0"
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: how would you install XP in virtual box, if you don't have an XP disk?
[03:08] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: and REAL beer ;-) by the way, does that nvidia 7600 tv-out work in linux?
[03:08] <meoblast001> can i just tell it where windows is?
[03:08] <LiberCogito> Das, you tried the text installer?
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> other than getting an illegal version of xp?
[03:08] <koyo001> what is the official ubuntu chat???
[03:08] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Never tried!
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: i'm not real sure.
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: try /join #whatisthisanyways
[03:08] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: ok i'll see if i can find some more info on it
[03:09] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: I'm a guinness stout kinda girl.
[03:09] <gopp> how come when I am using terinmal service to a computer next to me, via ubuntu I can't  hear no sound
[03:09] <meoblast001> LliberCogito: can i tell it where windows is (the windows partition)
[03:09] <Curare_> meta4ical_, that means "false" since ATI cards do not support composite ;)
[03:09] <JBandP> how can i connect to my netwrok via the commandline?
[03:09] <Das> LiberCogito: There is a text installer? And why would that be more effective?
[03:09] <koyo001> Indy: got a quation
[03:09] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: if i'm getting a new card anyway i might as well get one that works for everything :p
[03:09] <Jimdb> I've a question regarding the fstab and mounting of linux formatted hdd.  I've used the fstab for some time to mount hard drives (sata) and to have the mounted device show up on the desktop.  But recently the mounted drives, tho they are being mounted, do not seem to show on the desktop.  I've gone back and redone mount point and ensured user rights and all, but nothing seems to work.  The devices are mounted and they are under /media/wh
[03:09] <alecw1> Hey! I just barely got another dell laptop (with ubuntu)! :) Does anybody have a suggestion for a laptop sleeve (< $15)?
[03:09] <Das> IndyGunFreak: What should fix my problem? o_O
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> Das: the text installer gets you past some glitchy hardware.
[03:09] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: brrr guinness...
[03:09] <LiberCogito> Das: Thats what the alternate CD is... and it just plain works better when there are issues.
[03:09] <DimitrisC> Is virtual box any better in performance than vmware?
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: shoot, if i can help, i will.
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: i agree, i've gotten in the habit of only using the alt. cd
[03:10] <Das> IndyGunFreak: Is that the "alternate install" cd on Kubuntu.com?
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> i've not used a live cd since dapper.
[03:10] <LiberCogito> DimitrisC: I think so, but thats just my opinion.
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Das: yes
[03:10] <Das> I guess I'll try that
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Das: just download the alt. install cd for feisty

[03:11] <JBandP> how can i connect eth0 to the network?
[03:11] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: hmm now that i think of it, if i convert the time i spent trying to get this ati to work into money, i could've bought myself a few of those nvidia 7600's :p
[03:11] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: did you get that?
[03:11] <JBandP> is there some eth0 start command?
[03:11] <koyo001> yeah ive used it before
[03:11] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[03:11] <koyo001> just did not remember
[03:11] <CompIsMyRx> JBandP: sudo ifup eth0
[03:11] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Heh.  Thats what happened to me with onboard sound.
[03:12] <JBandP> thats tells me interface eth0 already configured
[03:12] <JBandP> I need to connect.
[03:12] <JBandP> it's not active
[03:12] <dem0n> none of those helped
[03:12] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Thats also why my next laptop is either a system76 or dell.  When 8 hours is a couple hundred.... its easier to buy things that just work. :)
[03:12] <dem0n> still dont work
[03:12] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: the problem is mostly that as long as you keep thinking of possible solutions, you don't wanna give up :p
[03:13] <koyo001> Indy: here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31857/
[03:13] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: you got that right!
[03:13] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Being stubborn killed the linux user?
[03:13] <koyo001> i keep getting this error and cant eliminate it
[03:13] <namit> where is it that the netboot image loads up setup screen?
[03:13] <localhost_> Anyone here have experience working with sas hard drives?
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: use my whole name, or i'll almost definitely miss what you say and not respond.
[03:13] <namit> trying to cutomise initrd for pxe boot
[03:14] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: not quite yet, the only problem in linux so far that being stubborn didn't solve was running wow on this ati card :p
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: you need to install the public key for a distro
[03:14] <LiberCogito> koyo001: So go get the key?
[03:14] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: i'm actually too stubborn to keep booting windows just for a game
[03:14] <nickrud> koyo001, you aren't adding that to ubuntu sources, are you?
[03:14] <xp_prg_> anyone use ardour here?
[03:15] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: I hafta for Asheron's Call because its ancient and no one supports it on linux :)
[03:15] <exyan> how do I configure my touchpad? sensitivity/acceleration etc ? :/
[03:15] <koyo001> nickrud: no
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> xp_prg_: my feet have a bad ardour coming from them...
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[03:15] <xp_prg_> oh man that is funny
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> koyo001: you might try asking in #debian, i'm not sure where you find the key
[03:15] <LiberCogito> exyan: System>Preferences>mouse
[03:16] <puppy-user-06som> what things aren't loaded in GNOME Failsafe vs normal GNOME Session ?
[03:16] <exyan> LiberCogito: that has no effect on touchpad?
[03:16] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: well maybe some day vmware or something will have better gaming drivers and you'll be able to do it that way ;)
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> puppy-user-06som: well, almost everything.. i don't think it loads a GUI.. but i could be wrong, i've never booted it to see
[03:16] <koyo001> nickrud: i did not put these but i think i copied them from a post
[03:16] <hvgotcodes> allright i just discovered i can connect to an open wireless but not a wep securing wireless network
[03:16] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Its sadly impossible, since the virutal machine cannot access the physical machine's video card.
[03:16] <hvgotcodes> whats up with that?
[03:16] <exyan> so how do I configure my touchpad >.<
[03:16] <exyan> ?
[03:17] <ipx> How can i run something through the terminal without dedicating that terminal to the application?
[03:17] <hvgotcodes> when i connect to the unsecured there is not ethx:avahi
[03:17] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: i didn't know that, that's too bad
[03:17] <hvgotcodes> when i connect to secured (which doesnt allow me to ping) i see eth1:avahi
[03:17] <Curare_> ipx: you can add a  &  at the end of the line. this forces the process to run in the background
[03:17] <exyan> and what are the differences between beryl and compiz?
[03:17] <nickrud> koyo001, gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys A70DAF536070D3A1 && gpg --export --armorA70DAF536070D3A1 | sudo apt-key add - should clear that error
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: i've never really figured that out.
[03:18] <dem0n> Can some one please help me im trying to watch a movie with my girlfirend and its not working
[03:18] <ipx> Curare_: ah, and when i close the application in the terminal, it remains!
[03:18] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: although now i'm kinda glad i didn't pursue that as an alternative...
[03:18] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: so they're the same Oo?
[03:18] <nickrud> koyo001, a fix: gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys A70DAF536070D3A1 && gpg --export --armor A70DAF536070D3A1 | sudo apt-key add -
[03:18] <eyequeue> ipx, are you looking to gnome-terminal -e foo?
[03:18] <ipx> Curare_: thanks alot
[03:18] <puppy-user-06som> IndyGunFreak:  it seams like it loads almost everything except whats causing GNOME to not load
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: i doubt they're the same
[03:18] <Curare_> np
[03:18] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Yeah, that would have been a massive waste of time
[03:18] <exyan> well nvm, I need some configuration for my touchpad ;D
[03:18] <ipx> eyequeue: it worked with &, thanks anyways
[03:18] <dem0n> Can some one please help me im trying to watch a movie with my girlfirend and its not working
[03:18] <ticnailer69> yo
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> puppy-user-06som: that may be the case, i don't know,
[03:18] <LiberCogito> What IRC client do you all prefer?
[03:18] <exyan> if it's working, means there's a .conf for it >.<
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> xchat,
[03:18] <ShackJack> exyan: See bottom off this page - maybe help if same driver is being used...
[03:18] <ticnailer69> how can I check to see what version of linux I have?

[03:18] <eyequeue> ipx, it also had some switches to start second third etc named screens or tabs on the commandline, iirc
[03:18] <dem0n> its .avi  it say that there isnt no plugins to handle this movie
[03:18] <ShackJack> exyan: Oops _ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad?highlight=%28touchpad%29
[03:19] <ticnailer69> I mean what dist...sorry

[03:19] <nickrud> !touchpad | exyan
[03:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about touchpad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:19] <dem0n> i already checked that
[03:19] <dem0n> it didnt help me none
[03:19] <LiberCogito> IndyGunFreak: Yeah, I could have googled that.  That doesn't give me real people's preferences.  :-p
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: then you did something wrong
[03:19] <eyequeue> ipx, i might not have understood your question though
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> LiberCogito: :)
[03:19] <nickrud> exyan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad?highlight=%28touchpad%29
[03:19] <dem0n> no i went to package manager and i installed the restricted formats
[03:19] <JBandP> is there an nvidia package i can install?
[03:20] <dem0n> and the gstreamed i cant even find
[03:20] <stmiller> Hey all spread the word about this Linux hardware compatibility site. Add your machine to help: http://hardware4linux.info/
[03:20] <broman> greetings !   I, of course, have a question... I use Bittornado... and I think my ISP may be throttling me (which is strange because I have their 'elite' package... or ... it could be because 'we' accidently hooked up a Hub and ran it without noticing it was not a router for aleast a day... and my roomie and I both share... any ideas ???
[03:20] <nickrud> ticnailer69, lsb_release -a
[03:20] <LiberCogito> jbandpL: Google envy nvidia
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: then thats why it doesn't work, the gstreamer, i think you have to add the medibuntu repo
[03:20] <ticnailer69> thanks bro
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> * i think *
[03:20] <ShackJack> JBandP: Check out restricted drivers manager under Admin
[03:20] <ticnailer69> wel ok
[03:20] <JBandP> im at command line
[03:20] <ticnailer69> but
[03:20] <dem0n> indy can u pleas pm me?
[03:20] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: a even bigger waste of time then what i already spent on this ati card, i probably would've just thrown my computer out the window
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: only if you're registered
[03:21] <dem0n> hmm
[03:21] <ShackJack> JBandP: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx ;)
[03:21] <dem0n> h/o
[03:21] <LiberCogito> broman: If your ISP is throttling torrents then its probably an automated filter, and trying to bypass it might violate your terms of service.... or land you in jail.  :)
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: just type this... no quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[03:21] <ShackJack> JBandP: then you have to change xorg.conf to use nvidia driver :)
[03:22] <stmiller> ktorrent can run bittorrent encrypted, can't it? then your isp won't know
[03:22] <ticnailer69> I'm on the dell website and I'm trying to install a cd-rw driver.....their descriptions show : redhat linux 8.0 and redhat 9.0 and stuff
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: are you there?
[03:22] <JBandP> i need to download it. it is already set to nvidia. But i get an error saying failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist,0)
[03:22] <JeevesMoss> can someone help me figure out an error code on an install of server?
[03:22] <ticnailer69> so am I applicable for any of those terms
[03:22] <LiberCogito> stmiller: ISPs identify torrents by traffic type, not by the content of the data... or at least thats what they do over here in the US.
[03:22] <eyequeue> JeevesMoss, state the error here, and maybe so
[03:22] <ShackJack> JBandP: o.k. so you're installing nvidia-glx now, right?
[03:22] <koyo001> nickrud: did what you said same error
[03:22] <stmiller> LiberCogito : yuck okay. Yeah I'm in Calif
[03:23] <LiberCogito> stmiller: Traffic trends, rather.
[03:23] <JBandP> i did already.
[03:23] <nickrud> koyo001, did you get an after that command?
[03:23] <nickrud> *ok koyo001
[03:23] <ShackJack> JBandP: you should address person you're talking to so they are alerted of your responses... Use tab autocomplete for IM name...
[03:23] <JBandP> wait, i hthink i downloaded something different.
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:24] <^^rian> Google earth cannot be run in ubuntu.. but success to installed it.. how come?
[03:24] <JeevesMoss> eyequeue: it's after a successfull install, then reboot, it gets past GRUB, then says "int 14: c1000000  err 0000002  EIP c03f3c3e CS 0000060  flags 0010006 Stack: 373c0046 000000 ffffff c0490000 000011e0 0000080 001e000 fffff80"
[03:24] <JBandP> ubuntu hates me.
[03:24] <JeevesMoss> ideas?
[03:24] <LiberCogito> ^^rian: your name is irritating to type...try running it from terminal.
[03:24] <nickrud> koyo001, my memory is defunct sometimes, did it tell you it imported: 1 ?
[03:24] <stmiller> anyone know any good Ubuntu user blogs?
[03:25] <koyo001> nickrud:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31858/
[03:25] <ShackJack> JBandP: Do update and upgrade before installing new stuff...
[03:25] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: ok it's getting late here, i'm out, thanks a lot for your help & info!
[03:25] <koyo001> nickrud: yes
[03:25] <LiberCogito> Elvis85: Welcome! Good luck!
[03:25] <eyequeue> JeevesMoss, that one is beyond me sorry, but someone else may now see it .... also have you tried feeding that string into google yet?  looks "hardwarish"
[03:25] <nickrud> koyo001, then sudo apt-get update
[03:25] <koyo001> nickrud: did that
[03:25] <Elvis85> @LiberCogito: thanks ;-)

[03:30] <ShackJack> grafe2008: You'll want to see #ubuntu-effects for deets...
[03:30] <nickrud> koyo001, I thought you said you weren't adding it to your ubuntu sources, that's a big no no, won't work, dangerous, breaks your system, need I go on?

[03:31] <Noobie> Anyone?
[03:31] <koyo001> nickrud: i told you i copy pasted a list and thats  what i have
[03:31] <gthorn> is it possable to have 2 computers connect through 56k cards?
[03:31] <koyo001> nickrud: how do i remove it
[03:31] <sotec_prod> What is the command to find out what all of my harddrives are labeled as? i.e. 'hdb1, hda1, etc?'
[03:31] <nickrud> koyo001, gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list and remove any line that has debian in it.
[03:32] <stmiller> anyone know how you create a dock like in this pic: http://www.venturecake.com/images/gimp%20new%20ui%20single%20window.png

[03:33] <ShackJack> stmiller: That Avant Dock or something - available in Trevinho repos...
[03:33] <Tanman> Flannel: i solved that little issue of mine with the ssh problem that i was having
[03:33] <stmiller> ShackJack Avant Dock? Okay thanks I'll check it out
[03:33] <B123> Stmiller: Run: "gconf-editor"

[03:38] <MacDrunk> vmware
[03:38] <MacDrunk> ???
[03:38] <MacDrunk> were to find it?
[03:38] <B123> VMware server.
[03:38] <B123> Synaptic!
[03:38] <koyo001> nickrud: we all good now
[03:39] <B123> should have it. it shows up under mine, and i have 7.04
[03:39] <frogzoo> nickrud: it's a bit tedious until you discover the blkid command
[03:39] <B123> It's very easy to set up after that, so you should get it.
[03:39] <MacDrunk> so i dont need lilo

[03:39] <B123> your have to do a partition then.
[03:39] <nickrud> frogzoo, yeah, I've found that and dev/disk/by-* (I do kinda like that)
[03:40] <B123> That's a little more work, and it will have to do with messing with GRUB, im not your man for that one.

[03:40] <ari_stress> hi all, anyone running beagle? is a cpu hog?
[03:40] <Kyahx> Anyone around that could help me get TwinView working the way I expect it to ?
[03:40] <B123> how do i adress people =/
[03:40] <MacDrunk> would be a problemo if i have linux as my first OS
[03:40] <nickrud> B123, use their nick
[03:40] <koyo001> nickrud: what if other programs downloaded from the debian archives
[03:40] <ari_stress> Kyahx: what notebook you are using
[03:40] <Kyahx> Right now a full screen app (wine) either takes up the full span of both moniters, or it will fill my main moniter and shut the other off
[03:40] <astro76> ari_stress, I have heard so
[03:40] <Kyahx> Nvidia GF 6800
[03:41] <ShackJack> B123: Put there name at the front of your reply -- their IM will alert them if they're not looking at the convo stream.... Start to type name and tap tab to autocomplete...
[03:41] <ant-> MacDrunk, you usually want to install windows before linux, read !dualboot

[03:41] <yellow_chicken> i am in nautilus in a particular folder, is there a way to execute xterm in nautilus, so that my xterm is default to that particular folder?
[03:42] <hajhouse> what could cause they keyboard to stop working mostly in X, so that you can't type anything into any X application? i'm trying to figure out why this happened to a friend who is using kubuntu 7.04
[03:42] <Kyahx> ari_stress: its not a notebook setup.  Its a desktop with two moniters.  I don't want to clone the screens
[03:42] <nickrud> koyo001, I'd remove them, personally. If you don't know or remember what all was installed, synaptic has a button on the lower left called Status, and it'll put up a list on the upper left. Look at Installed(local or obsolete)
[03:42] <MacDrunk> ant
[03:42] <astro76> yellow_chicken, install nautilus-open-terminal
[03:43] <B123> ShackJack like this?
[03:43] <MacDrunk> im reading and it says linux wont support nfts file sistem
[03:43] <ShackJack> B123: atta boy ;)
[03:43] <yellow_chicken> astro76: thanks
[03:43] <ShackJack> B123: I was not looking at IM but it "beeped" me cause my name was said ;)
[03:43] <astro76> MacDrunk, it supports reading by default and write support can be added, works perfectly

[03:44] <yellow_chicken> why are these so much errors when i open kwrite? http://rafb.net/p/zXNoly14.html
[03:44] <avis> if i wanted better quality than onboard 965G audio what audio card would i look at that is supported in feisty ?
[03:44] <stmiller> Does the Gparted Live CD resize ext3 non-destructively? Or am I crazy to try that?
[03:45] <ShackJack> B123: Eh, it's flawless! (NTFS)
[03:45] <B123> How unstable is the new 7.10?
[03:45] <B123> ShackJack I know lol but not as flawless as FAT32!
[03:45] <Kyahx> Anyone else have experience with Nvidia's TwinView setup?
[03:45] <astro76> B123, pretty unstable until it is released in October
[03:45] <ShackJack> B123: I'm running it and haven't had any mjor issues...
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> Kyahx: i've got twinview set up
[03:46] <B123> astro76 alright, Im sticking with 7.04!
[03:46] <ShackJack> astro76: Been running for a month now :) No big issues...
[03:46] <B123> ShackJack I know but its still not AS easy =)
[03:46] <hajhouse> B123: no real stable. it should be mostly stable by late September
[03:46] <nickrud> B123, if past experience is anything to go by, wait till late august, when what normal people call 'major issues' will be cleared up, mostly
[03:46] <Kyahx> IndyGunFreak: I've got it working for my desktop fine, my problem is gaming (wine).  WoW wants to take up either both screens, or shut off my right moniter
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> Kyahx: good luck..
[03:46] <ShackJack> I don't have any stability problems whatsoever with 7.10 :)
[03:46] <yellow_chicken> astro76: i just installed open-terminal, how do i use it?
[03:46] <Kyahx> lol
[03:47] <Kyahx> that's promising
[03:47] <acidx> Kyahx, use a wine desktop window. (run winecfg and choose that somewhere.)
[03:47] <MacDrunk> well what if ubuntu is already installed and i didnt partition my hard drive to do a windows xp installation afterwards
[03:47] <astro76> yellow_chicken, right click on a folder, or the empty space in a folder, and click Open Terminal
[03:47] <nickrud> MacDrunk, we'd call that a successful installation
[03:47] <Kyahx> acidx: I was hoping to avoid windowed mode, but if that's all I can do oh well I guess
[03:47] <acidx> Kyahx, you want "emulate a virtual desktop" inside "graphics" tab.
[03:48] <killown> where I found tcl-dev?
[03:48] <killown> apt-get dont give it for me
[03:48] <F00BaR> how do i make ssh colourful
[03:48] <yellow_chicken> astro76: it's not in the list, reboot?
[03:48] <B123> nickrud Yeah im going to wait.
[03:48] <astro76> !info tcl8.4-dev | killown
[03:48] <ubotu> killown: tcl8.4-dev: Tcl (the Tool Command Language) v8.4 - development files. In component main, is optional. Version 8.4.14-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 751 kB, installed size 2276 kB
[03:49] <MacDrunk> ok i have ubuntu installed and i didnt partition my hd to have windows installation afterwards now i need windows to run some programs what should i do to install it whit out unistall ubuntu
[03:49] <acidx> kill: tcl8.4-dev
[03:49] <killown> astro76 nope
[03:49] <killown> tcl-dev only
[03:49] <yellow_chicken> astro76: yes, i found on google. reboot needed
[03:49] <MacDrunk> do i use the boot menu on windows or lilo
[03:49] <killown> tcl8 not works
[03:49] <B123> MacDrunk have you tried Wine? or Crossover Office?
[03:49] <nickrud> MacDrunk, you can run the live cd, and use gparted to reduce the size of the ubuntu partition to make room for windows
[03:49] <astro76> yellow_chicken, could probably just restart X (ctrl+alt+backspace)...
[03:49] <MacDrunk> ok
[03:49] <F00BaR> Does anyone know how to make SSH Coulorful>
[03:50] <B123> FOOBaR coulorful?
[03:50] <astro76> !info tcl-dev | killown
[03:50] <MacDrunk> nickruf then i install windows right
[03:50] <ubotu> killown: Package tcl-dev does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:50] <bruenig> F00BaR, does it not inherit the color settings of the user you are logged in under?
[03:50] <nickrud> F00BaR, you can copy your .bashrc over to the machine you ssh to
[03:50] <B123> F00BaR Why dont you use VNC if you need something that will show you the Desktop?
[03:51] <astro76> killown, it appears only 8.3 and 8.4 are packaged in ubuntu
[03:51] <killown> ok
[03:51] <F00BaR> B123 i dont need remote desktop, just a coulorful ssh
[03:51] <MacDrunk> nickrud do i need to reboot and use the live cd?
[03:51] <F00BaR> insteal of dull black + white
[03:51] <B123> F00BaR Alright, sorry.
[03:51] <F00BaR> say red + blue
[03:52] <nickrud> MacDrunk, yes, you can alter partitions only on a drive that isn't mounted
[03:52] <F00BaR> Thanks anyway B123
[03:52] <B123> Does anyone use Transmission?
[03:52] <MacDrunk> ok so i boot from the live cd and then make the repartition on the linux partition so i make room for windows right
[03:53] <MacDrunk> then i do the full install of windows xp
[03:53] <bruenig> B123, did very shortly and then stopped
[03:54] <astro76> MacDrunk, yes then after that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows

[03:54] <imikke> Hi, I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 and using the WUSB54G (by linksys) network card. About every 10-15 mins. the connection drops. I am not experincing the problem on any of my other PCs in the house. Any ideas?
[03:55] <meoblast001> woooo hooo a successful build of something i already have
[03:55] <allbert> congrats!!!
[03:55] <meoblast001> now i have 2 copies of bash
[03:55] <meoblast001> thats probably not good
[03:56] <JBandP> how do i install the linux-restricted-modules ?
[03:56] <exyan> what's wrong with gnome that comes with ubuntu, can't install any themes Oo
[03:56] <B123> bruenig why?
[03:56] <bcbooter> yes, i got suspend to ram to work
[03:56] <meoblast001> how do i add the ability to make deb's to compiling?
[03:56] <broman> imikke: ... so am I... but I dont know the cause yet..
[03:57] <imikke> broman , are you using the same network adapter?
[03:57] <levander> imikke: Maybe there's some idle timeout in how the network connection is configured?  That's just a guess.
[03:57] <Stuart_99> hey everyone...got a bit of a problem.  In addition to my forum problem, I tried to run Ubuntu on my Dell XPS M1210.  It worked :), but my wifi will NOT work.   What do I have to do to get it operational?  I'm using the wired connection on the livecd to get on IRC.  Thanks for your time.
[03:57] <broman> imikke: no... but I think its my ISP...
[03:57] <broman> imikke:  ATT
[03:57] <imikke> I have a 2wire gateway router, but I don't think it's the problem either
[03:58] <imikke> I also have at&t
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless
[03:58] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:58] <exyan> so how do u install themes for gnome :/? I just drop the tar.gz but it says wrong fil
[03:58] <exyan> e
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> !themes
[03:58] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[03:58] <levander> Stuart_99: wifi cards last I heard is one of those areas Linux support is not so great.  I think people have to play around with something called ndiswrapper to get them to work if they don't work out of the box.
[03:58] <malocite_> does ubunto close all ports by default?
[03:58] <malocite_>  I am trying to make any kind of connection to either of my two ubuntu boxes but I keep getting connection refused
[03:58] <exyan> !changethemes
[03:58] <ubotu> To change your themes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy.  Kubuntu users should visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu.
[03:59] <broman> imikke: I am just running straight out of their dsl modem for now...
[03:59] <Stuart_99> Ok, which driver do I need to use in conjunction with ndiswrapper?
[03:59] <imikke> right now I'm on vista, but i'm not being disconnected
[03:59] <dem0n> indy come back
[03:59] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: it says wrong file >.<
[03:59] <broman> imikke: .... and it only started recently doing that...
[03:59] <dem0n> sorry i was afk
[03:59] <bcbooter> whats the best place to get themes for ubuntu?
[03:59] <imikke> same here
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: wrong file?
[03:59] <dem0n> i am doing laundry in an apartment shit comes up missing
[03:59] <Stuart_99> Could I find it on my windows partition?
[03:59] <ziroday> Stuart_99: your windows driver .inf file
[03:59] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: yes...
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: what are you talking about?
[04:00] <astro76> Stuart_99, what kind of card is it? check with lspci
[04:00] <dem0n> indygunfreak: come back i am doing laundry in an apartment shit comes up missing
[04:00] <exyan> IndyGunFreak: the themes, if I install one it just gives me "the file format is invalid"
[04:00] <imikke> broman, on this page it said the default drivers may not work in all cases https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Linksys_WUSB54Gv4?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> dem0n: all you had to do was tell me, i'd have waited...
[04:00] <imikke> So we may have to use ndiswrapper.
[04:00] <Stuart_99> Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 1)
[04:00] <broman> imikke: do you use torrent clients ?
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> exyan: hold on a minute, let me get dem0n going
[04:00] <imikke> no I do not, broman
[04:01] <ziroday> imikke: i have that card, you should definitly use ndiswrapper
[04:01] <imikke> is it easy to configure NDISwrapper?
[04:01] <astro76> Stuart_99, ok that should work with the opensource driver, install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:01] <rockets> Whats the name of the dock application that mimics the one in OSX Leopard
[04:01] <ziroday> imikke: i used ndisgtk and System > Admin > Network

[04:03] <broman> imikke: ... hmmm... I do, and I thought I was being throttled... I have seen articles that say ATT is trying some new experiments... I am seriously considering cable soon...
[04:03] <g2g591> even when theres free space in the extended partation, it doesnt let me in gparted
[04:03] <ziroday> rockets: they have the latest version ther

[04:03] <ziroday> yeah
[04:03] <imikke> broman, but it's not happening to my windows or mac computers, only my ubuntu installation.
[04:03] <rockets> ziroday, wait, does avant work without compiz
[04:03] <imikke> so I doubt it's at&t.
[04:03] <rockets> i dont want compiz or beryl
[04:04] <koyo001> need help installing webcam
[04:04] <ziroday> rockets: no you have to have either

[04:04] <Stuart_99> I'll check the repos first, thanks
[04:04] <broman> imikke: thanks for that info...

[04:05] <levander> gravemind: Is it possible that Ubuntu just only has a package for Java 5?
[04:05] <ThatLazyGuy> how come i cant see to watch rmvb movies with MPlayer in fullscreen
[04:05] <imikke> and ...does anyone know the easiest way to move many files and folders to the /var/www/ directory?
[04:05] <Stuart_99> Could I be searching wrong?

[04:07] <imikke> ok, thank you nickrud
[04:07] <ziroday> pawan: use restricted driver manager

[04:08] <levander> ziroday: That's a desktop environment, I need the window manager.
[04:08] <Stuart_99> whatever the default is...how do I check?
[04:08] <Nooobie> I'm getting: "ta3.00: exception emask 0*0sact 0*0 serr 0*0 action 0*0" when I'm starting up my newly installed Ubuntu-machine...

[04:08] <levander> Are theme screenshots always this slow to come down on themes.freshmeat.net?
[04:08] <nickrud> Quinton_, that question isn't very clear?
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: so whats the prob?
[04:09] <ziroday> pawan: do you have intergrated intel cards as well as your nvidia card?
[04:09] <levander> http://themes.freshmeat.net/screenshots/35865/38091/
[04:09] <pawan> no
[04:09] <Stuart_99> how do I check to make sure I have all repos enabled?
[04:09] <ziroday> pawan: run nvidia xconfig
[04:09] <pawan> i am not getting high resolution
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: whats the issue?
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> oh,
[04:09] <ziroday> pawan: or somewthing like that

[04:11] <Quinton_> under the x server config i edited files and i need to know the buttons to hit to save/restart my computer
[04:11] <nickrud> Quinton_, you'd save the file from the editor, then log out, hit ctl-alt-backspace (restarts X server), and log back in.
[04:11] <Truman_> Hey, I'm having a bit of trouble getting the restricted driver installed; all I should have to do is download nVidia's driver, install that, apt-get the nvidia-glx-new (that's what my card needs), then enable the restricted driver... right?
[04:11] <blackace11> hello i am having troubles mounting an iso file...
[04:11] <ziroday> Truman_: no just tick the checkbox
[04:11] <g2g591> just enable the restricted driver

[04:13] <Quinton_> nickrud: under recovery mode there is a crtl or alt and another key needs to be pressed
[04:13] <Truman_> ziroday: In addition, when I tick the box for the restricted driver, it looks like it installs the nvidia-glx package instead of the -new
[04:13] <piedoggie> see man mount and search for is09660
[04:13] <ziroday> Truman_: either one works

[04:14] <nickrud> Quinton_, depends on what editor you're using. Top left of the screen: does it say gnu nano?
[04:14] <ziroday> Truman_: because both versions work, the new one is just slightly beter
[04:15] <Quinton_> nickrud: it is nano
[04:15] <Truman_> ziroday: I gotcha; well either way I try it, whenever it reboots it gives me an error about kernal mismatch or something along those lines
[04:15] <nickrud> Quinton_, then like it says at the bottom, ctl-X Exit
[04:15] <scottDkoDer> How do you change your desktop back groud if you get nothing when right clicking on your desktop?

[04:17] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[04:17] <ziroday> Truman_: heres the site http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[04:18] <Truman_> ziroday: Thanks, I'll check it out
[04:18] <ziroday> Jack_Sparrow: or it could fix your machine really well
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !worksforme
[04:18] <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.
[04:18] <yow|5570> can someone help me with samba? I can't get my shares to mount after reboot from fstab
[04:18] <ziroday> Jack_Sparrow: have you ever used envy?
[04:18] <ziroday> Jack_Sparrow: i know how to call up the bot thank you :)
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> ziroday: Envy and automatix are both terrible programs.. yes, tested both...
[04:18] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[04:18] <nickrud> ziroday, Jack_Sparrow doesn't need any help, but we've seen way too many people come crying here after using envy.
[04:19] <Davy_Jones> also alien
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> true
[04:19] <ziroday> nickrud: odd, cause ive helped quite a few people with envy, espically when they get kernel mismatches after installing nvidia-glx
[04:20] <nickrud> ziroday, I've seen many scripts come and go, early automatix and easyubuntu (had high hopes for that one) and it's sucks when it goes bad and it's time for remote troubleshooting
[04:21] <nickrud> alien is a monster that eats your entrails
[04:21] <bcbooter> udshfudshfudsa
[04:21] <ziroday> nickrud: yeah lol, that one i agree
[04:21] <Stuart_99> :).  My wifi card can now see other networks :)
[04:21] <Truman_> Well, time to restart and see if I'm one of the lucky few that envy helps ; )
[04:21] <Stuart_99> I'm going to attempt connecting to my WPA2 enabled wireless router
[04:21] <Truman_> I'll come back crying in a minute, otherwise
[04:21] <nickrud> Truman_, better than half have success, I hear
[04:22] <summer_s4> does anyone know how to dual boot windows xp and ubuntu fiesty fox?
[04:22] <Truman_> nickrud: Thanks, that makes me feel better
[04:22] <rockets> summer_s4, install windows first, then ubuntu feisty fawn
[04:22] <rockets> summer_s4, leave free space after you install windows
[04:22] <tom33> i installed the application fglrx
[04:22] <tom33> and the desktop effects
[04:22] <tom33> were off
[04:22] <tom33> how can i turn it on?
[04:22] <summer_s4> does anyone know how to when ubuntu is allready installed with leftover space?
[04:22] <Stuart_99> Ok...here's a new question.  How can I set up wpa_supplicant.conf to have more than 1 network setup there?  I switch between multiple WPA and WPA2 enabled routers (it's my laptop...) and I would like to be able to use one instead of the other at times...
[04:23] <Nooobie> "ata3.00: exception emask 0*0sact 0*0 serr 0*0 action 0*0" <-- Help please?
[04:23] <Stuart_99> Is it possible to set wpa_supplicant.conf to use routers interchangeably?
[04:23] <nickrud> summer_s4, install windows on the remainder, then read the following
[04:23] <tom33> when i go to system>preferences>desktop effects
[04:23] <nickrud> !grub | summer_s4
[04:23] <ubotu> summer_s4: 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
[04:23] <tom33> and i try to turn it on it crashes
[04:23] <tom33> an error message shows up
[04:24] <Truman_> Well, I'm not sure how far I can trust it, but it says that it's enabled and in use
[04:24] <theblue> Hi all.
[04:24] <ziroday> Truman_: there so it worked, go play with compiz fusion
[04:24] <theblue> Is there any particular benefit to using the install DVDs compared with the install CDs?
[04:24] <nickrud> ;P
[04:24] <Nooobie> Anyone?
[04:24] <Truman_> ziroday: Heh, no, I like Gnome thanks
[04:24] <intelikey> logfile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 0) Failed  to mount A/dev/hda1/': Operation not supported   <<< etc/fstab line is >>> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000       0 0
[04:24] <intelikey> ?
[04:25] <ziroday> Truman_: or go run a game then lol
[04:25] <Truman_> ziroday: When I find some good linux games, I'll hop right now that :p
[04:25] <Stuart_99> Can wpa_supplicant.conf be configured to use WPA/WPA2 routers interchangeably?
[04:25] <Nooobie> Has anyone ever gotten an error similar to "ata3.00: exception emask 0*0sact 0*0 serr 0*0 action 0*0" after an install?
[04:25] <ziroday> Truman_: try TC:Elite
[04:26] <summer_s4> anyone need help?
[04:26] <Juz_moi> I'm reading something that mentions /etc/rc.conf  I can't find it, does kubuntu use something different?
[04:26] <ziroday> Truman_: or digital paintball (modelled after CS:S)
[04:26] <intelikey> fs help ?
[04:26] <Truman_> ziroday: I might just
[04:26] <Truman_> How can I tell if it decided to use nvidia-glx or -new?
[04:26] <nickrud> intelikey, uid I think is not kosher
[04:26] <theblue> what's the difference between using the dvds and cds to install ubuntu?
[04:26] <intelikey> nickrud ?
[04:26] <summer_s4> what is the difference between ubuntu and edubuntu?
[04:26] <ziroday> Truman_: its not using either its basically using source code
[04:27] <intelikey> ok.
[04:27] <ziroday> summer_s4: different themes, installs, programs, ltsp, and a whole bunch of other stuff
[04:27] <Truman_> ziroday: Wait, so are the nvidia-glx things something apart from this restricted driver business?
[04:27] <Nooobie> Has anyone ever gotten an error similar to "ata3.00: exception emask 0*0sact 0*0 serr 0*0 action 0*0" after an install and got a sollution for it?
[04:27] <ziroday> Truman_: no there the same, but envy is apartfrom them
[04:27] <summer_s4> ziroday: any spesific's?
[04:28] <Juz_moi> one more time ......  I'm reading something that mentions /etc/rc.conf  I can't find it, does kubuntu use something different?
[04:28] <ziroday> summer_s4: all of the above is different, what do you want me to be specific about? :)
[04:28] <Truman_> ziroday: I gotcha.  Same performance, I guess?
[04:28] <nickrud> Juz_moi, depends on what that rc.conf is for
[04:28] <ziroday> Truman_: same if anything slightly better
[04:28] <Juz_moi> related to vbox and interfaces
[04:28] <nickrud> Juz_moi, you can look at ubuntu's rc stuff: ls /etc/rc*
[04:28] <Pelo> Juz_moi,  it shouldn'T should be the same
[04:28] <Stuart_99> Does anyone know if wpa_supplicant.conf can be configured to use WPA/WPA2 routers interchangeably?
[04:28] <ziroday> Truman_: just a warning when you upgrade to a new kernel
[04:29] <Stuart_99> or will network manager allow it?
[04:29] <summer_s4> ziroday: my school has edubuntu and i need to know what is different because i use ubuntu
[04:29] <Juz_moi> whick rc. does ubuntu run
[04:29] <Truman_> ziroday: Gotcha.. So with Envy do I need to go edit xorg.conf manually for my screen res?
[04:29] <tannerld> I set up a svn server on my ubuntu server, but when I try to checkout a repo, nothing happens - whats the default port for it?
[04:29] <ziroday> summer_s4: they are both completely compatible, just ubuntu has a different theme and programs. You can install all the edubuntu programs as well
[04:29] <eyequeue> Juz_moi, rc2 is default runlevel in debian/ubuntu
[04:29] <ziroday> Truman_:
[04:30] <bullgard4> Are the timestamps in dmesg given in seconds or milliseconds?
[04:30] <GeeK> anyone here have a Matrox TripleHead2Go working ?
[04:30] <Pelo> Juz_moi, it's possible that you need to make it
[04:30] <ziroday> Truman_: sorry, maybe yes
[04:30] <Juz_moi> tnx
[04:30] <Stuart_99> Ok...how about this...can I safely install Ubuntu on my Dell notebook?  Will it shrink my windows partition safely?
[04:30] <ziroday> Truman_: or try System > Pref > Screen REz
[04:30] <Truman_> ziroday: Alright .. thanks a lot -- I tried screen rez, it's not listed
[04:30] <nickrud> triplehead. heh
[04:30] <darrell> anyone know of a simple way to flip videos? I got a bunch of .mov files on my camera all sideways
[04:30] <GeeK> yay, triplehead Rulez
[04:30] <Pelo> Stuart_99,  it should but backup your data anyway and make sure you hve your windows cd just incase
[04:31] <GeeK> but no worky in ubuntu
[04:31] <ziroday> Truman_: no sorry its in the menu System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[04:31] <Stuart_99> Ok, I can back everything up and have the windows recovery cd
[04:31] <Truman_> ziroday: Isn't that what you said the first time, just with a few more letters?
[04:31] <Stuart_99> Last question for today...can I interchangeably use WPA/WP2 routers?
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> darrell: dont know of a simple way but LiVES looks like good video editing software as does Kino although I dont know which is better....you can get LiVES from getdeb.net
[04:31] <Pelo> Stuart_99,  and defrag your ntfs partition before hand also it will help
[04:31] <ziroday> Truman_: yeah sorry but it should b there
[04:32] <pawan1234> hi
[04:32] <Stuart_99> will do, thanks Pelo
[04:32] <pawan> by nvidia graphis card not working
[04:32] <Paddy_EIRE> darrell: kino is in the repos
[04:32] <aes_ebu> hi, when I try to run the chromium package it says it needs the chromium-data package but when I try to run the chromium-data package it says it needs the chromium package. Any suggestions?
[04:32] <Stuart_99> Ok - I'll read the documentation.  Thank you all for your help :D :D :D
[04:32] <summer_s4> ziroday: Well... what are the themes like?
[04:32] <Stuart_99> bye
[04:33] <pawan> cannot start the xwindow system
[04:33] <tr14d> Waited SO long to switch over....
[04:33] <ziroday> summer_s4: alot lighter and less red
[04:33] <nickrud> aes_ebu, are you trying to install them?
[04:33] <tr14d> waited SOooooo long
[04:33] <GeeK> so nobody has a Matrox DualHead or TripleHead ?
[04:33] <tr14d> My GOD  I am loving thos OS
[04:33] <aes_ebu> nickrud: yes
[04:33] <tr14d> *this
[04:33] <Truman_> ziroday: It doesn't detect my highest; I'ma try sticking it in xorg.conf and see what happen
[04:33] <nickrud> aes_ebu, apt-get install chromium then?
[04:33] <Truman_> err, happens
[04:33] <Pelo> pawan, on the install or have you installed already ?
[04:33] <Paddy_EIRE> Truman_: thats what you do
[04:33] <pawan> yes
[04:33] <ziroday> Truman_: yeah thats what you prob have to do
[04:33] <GeeK> tr14d: yes, i am amazed so far how nice ubuntu is
[04:33] <theblue> GeeK: I do, but i haven't used it.
[04:33] <nickrud> aes_ebu, with sudo of course
[04:33] <summer_s4> ziroday: what things come with it in the applications?
[04:33] <ziroday> !fixres| or try these Truman_
[04:34] <ubotu> or try these Truman_: 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
[04:34] <pawan> now i am stuck at dos command prompt
[04:34] <Paddy_EIRE> Truman_: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:34] <Pelo> pawan,  either/or questions are not answered with yes
[04:34] <aes_ebu> nickrud: not familar with that
[04:34] <tr14d> Windows/Mac for well...since Win 3.11
[04:34] <Truman_> Paddy_EIRE: I got it.. brb while I restart x
[04:34] <tr14d> finally got sick of it
[04:34] <GeeK> theblue: you havent tried it in XOrg yet? know any resources might help get it to run ?
[04:34] <nickrud> pawan, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , should get you back up
[04:34] <ziroday> summer_s4: basically everything edubuntu has except for some games er the music editng program, and some other stuff i cant remember
[04:34] <Truman_> Ah, so much better
[04:34] <dmind> hola
[04:35] <dmind> hello
[04:35] <GeeK> tr14d: my windows xp was getting so sluggish i could barely play my games , read that EVE runs in Wine, so i gave it a shot
[04:35] <summer_s4> ziroday: what does the login place look like?
[04:35] <nickrud> aes_ebu, it's the way you install packages. apt-get will know that chromium needs chromium-data, and will install it automatically
[04:35] <ziroday> Truman_: glasd to hear it worked
[04:35] <ziroday> summer_s4: lighter
[04:35] <tr14d> Wine?
[04:35] <tr14d> please do tell
[04:35] <Truman_> ziroday: Not as much as I'm glad to see it working ; )
[04:35] <tr14d> :S
[04:35] <aes_ebu> nickrud: is sudo a package manager for ubuntu? Sorry I am new.
[04:35] <ziroday> Truman_: lol :)
[04:36] <Truman_> Hey, I have a challenge:  Anyone want to help me figure out some cool grub stuff with bootcamp and a missing partition in fdisk?
[04:36] <GeeK> i have had a grand noob time trying to get my 9 button mouse (doesnt work yet) working
[04:36] <theblue> GeeK: sorry, haven't used my dualhead card in years.
[04:36] <nickrud> aes_ebu, you have a gui working, right?
[04:36] <summer_s4> ziroday: what is the difference between ubuntu server and ubuntu desktop?
[04:36] <GeeK> and my tripple head display, dont work
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> !sudo | aes_ebu
[04:36] <ubotu> aes_ebu: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:36] <dylanmoor1> hello everybody.  can anyone help me witha  broadcom wireless card that it scanning and turning on properly, but not connecting networks
[04:36] <ziroday> summer_s4: main difference is that ubuntu server has no gui
[04:36] <GeeK> and all kinda issues with running teamspeak and a game at once , apparently older sound drivers dont allow multiple applicaitons to share souncard
[04:36] <ziroday> summer_s4: get ubuntu-desktop
[04:36] <aes_ebu> nickrud: I think I understand now and I will read that. Thanks!
[04:36] <GeeK> all the little things i took for granted in windows , are stacking up to be a weeks worth of tweeking
[04:37] <Truman_> Anybody?  fdisk?  grub?  It'll be a hell of a lot of fun.
[04:37] <nickrud> aes_ebu, then applications->add/remove, and system->prefererences->synaptic , those are your entryway into packages in ubuntu
[04:37] <ziroday> Truman_: lol
[04:37] <summer_s4> ziroday: i got desktop.
[04:37] <tr14d> lol, I had a bit of a hard time on my first go this last week
[04:37] <aes_ebu> nickrud: I was trying to install using .deb packages
[04:37] <tr14d> but im really enjoying this so far
[04:37] <tr14d> having issues getting my fx5200 drivers installed
[04:37] <GeeK> im so dependant on my games , if they dont run i get board real quick
[04:38] <nickrud> aes_ebu, not needed, hard, I came to ubuntu's predecessor just so I wouldn't have to worry about packages at that level
[04:38] <summer_s4> Does someone tell me how to install mozilla firefox 3.0a7 as an application in the applications menu?
[04:38] <ziroday> aes_ebu: in command line do this in the right directory. dpkg -i filename1.deb filename2.deb
[04:38] <darrell> Paddy_EIRE: kino doesn't work with .mov videos been trying avidemux but I can't figure out what video, audio, and format  I should use
[04:38] <tr14d> yeah, i DO miss my SOF2
[04:38] <GeeK> ya , i had some issues getting nvidia drivers working for my 7950
[04:38] <JBandP> got my display working properly, finally.
[04:38] <Truman_> Man, you guys are tolly lame :\
[04:38] <JBandP> it was all about the nvidia restricted drivers.
[04:38] <Nooobie> Has anyone ever gotten an error similar to "ata3.00: exception emask 0*0sact 0*0 serr 0*0 action 0*0" after an install and got a sollution for it?
[04:38] <GeeK> went with the nvidia-glx-new instead
[04:38] <nickrud> aes_ebu, you had a taste of dpkg hell, hope it warned you away from that method :)
[04:38] <Paddy_EIRE> darrell: oh, 1 sec I'll see if I can find anything useful for you
[04:38] <darrell> Paddy_EIRE: If I use YV12(raw), Vorbis,AVI combo I have a blue picture with no sound
[04:39] <GeeK> well im going to go try a certain beta that i got into of which i cant talk about
[04:39] <aes_ebu> nickrud: I think it did. Thanks very much!

[04:40] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:40] <GeeK> wine is a free imlementation of windows
[04:40] <theblue> GeeK: not really.

[04:45] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> is there a way to get into a yahoo chatroom with voice and cam?...
[04:46] <Paddy_EIRE> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v: I think that GYachi does that although I cannot be sure

[04:46] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> paddy: ya i heard that too but never really got into it.. and when i did it was a task in its self
[04:46] <darrell> damn this is so confusing lol
[04:47] <dylanmoor1> paddy_eire, rockinghorse, let me read that page.
[04:47] <Paddy_EIRE> !multimedia | darrell
[04:47] <ubotu> darrell: Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[04:47] <eTiger13> Rocinghorse: really? could you help me connect mine? its having problems on a fresh install
[04:47] <Truman_> So has anyone decided that they'd like to have some fun with fdisk and/or grub?  'cause I could sure use some help.
[04:48] <darrell> Paddy_EIRE: hmm got all the gstreamer. I think its just a vlc only sorta thing
[04:48] <asc> Is using 'time mplayer file' and taking the user/system time a reasonable way to test the performance of different versions of mplayer (for a given file format, of course)
[04:48] <asc> *?
[04:48] <Rockinghorse> eteran, is it usb?
[04:48] <Rockinghorse> eTiger13, is it usb?
[04:49] <piedoggie> by the way, those instructions for installing multimedia codecs don't always work right.  I've done them twice and failed twice
[04:49] <Selrach> How do I add support for graphics above 16 colors when using vmware player to host a windows 2000 or XP VM?
[04:49] <Dr_willis> Selrach,  install the vmwaretools yet on the virtual machine?
[04:49] <eTiger13> rockinghorse: I have two. one is a pcmcia card and the second is a usb one. the usb one seems to be closer to getting it to work.
[04:49] <piedoggie> Selrach: you need to install the VM ware tools
[04:49] <Selrach> where do I find that?
[04:49] <Dr_willis> Selrach,  in the vmwareserver, its in the menus. I never use vmware player.
[04:49] <Selrach> repositories?
[04:50] <RoC_MM> Selrach, contact vmware.
[04:50] <piedoggie> Selrach: you are given an option on the console to install the tools
[04:50] <Selrach> oh okay
[04:50] <Dr_willis> vmware will 'add' a cd to the virtual os, that you then use to install the stuff with.
[04:50] <piedoggie> tools are then mounted as a DVD image
[04:50] <myTunes> hello
[04:50] <Dr_willis> sort of a neat trick really. :)
[04:50] <Rockinghorse> have you checked if there are restricted drivers in the repos for your cards?
[04:50] <myTunes> I have a dumb question...
[04:50] <ice_cream> myTunes, better to just ask away =)
[04:50] <masterloki> our favorite kind ;)
[04:50] <ice_cream> then lead up to it
[04:50] <ice_cream> than*
[04:51] <masterloki> !ask
[04:51] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:51] <darrell> myTunes: how dumb myTunes? is it really really dumb? lol
[04:51] <myTunes> I just set up a 6.06 server... whenever I go to a page I set up with php... the script will ask to dl instead of execute. How do I fix this?
[04:51] <pawan> hi
[04:51] <eTiger13> rockinghorse: its showing up when I do a iwconfig, except it shows up as eth0 instead og wlan0
[04:51] <pawan> cant start the xwindow system
[04:52] <darrell> myTunes: yeah I had that error before when I was surfing some pr0n. was that yo site? hehe
[04:52] <myTunes> uh... no.

[04:52] <pawan> my nvidia graphics card not matching
[04:52] <darrell> myTunes: what happens when you say open with browser?
[04:52] <bf> can anyone help me get audio record working with my Plantronics USB DSP-400?  arecord returns an IO error
[04:53] <pawan> version not matching
[04:53] <myTunes> I haven't done that because that is not what's supposed to happen. What I want to know is how to tell the server that php scripts are supposed to be run.
[04:53] <Rockinghorse> eTiger13, thats the norm does iwconfig give any info what is happening? Any errors?
[04:53] <summer_s4> does anyone know the horizsync and vertrefresh of a Compaq 7550 monitor?

[04:55] <Selrach> are you using 64 bit?
[04:55] <Jaso1> hello, i'm having some issues with "connect to server" is this the correct channel to find help?
[04:55] <Selrach> pawan: are you using 64 bit?
[04:56] <pawan> 32 bit
[04:56] <Selrach> ah.
[04:56] <Selrach> feisty 64 bit gave me trouble... sheesh

[04:58] <pawan> one year
[04:58] <chikita> how do i get an empty desktop?
[04:58] <Selrach> if its really old, you might need to use legacy drivers
[04:58] <pawan> it is supported onthe ubuntu site
[04:58] <IdNotFound> Quinton_: you have to configure where APT looks for packages... I believe apt-config should help you, not sure... it's been a long time

[04:59] <dylanmoore> hello, i was speaking to some people about my broadcom wireless card.  you referred me to a site to update my drivers.  i did this and i am still getting the same strangle problem: i can iwlist scan and see APs, but i cant connect to any of them
[04:59] <Quinton_> tupa: guide me?
[05:00] <_tcc> During init, Feisty takes a very long time to load ACPI modules and bring up HalD.
[05:00] <_tcc> Why is this?
[05:00] <_tcc> I've never had this problem in earlier releases.
[05:00] <_tcc> Maybe 2 or 3 minutes.

[05:02] <theblue> summer_s4: That seems really stupid.
[05:02] <dylanmoore> can anyone help me with my strange wireless problem: wireless card iwlist scan sees local APs but will not connect to any of them?
[05:02] <Truman_> pawan: To get it to startx without error, you could also sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and select either the "Vesa" or "nv" driver at that very first screen.. then enter/tab through all of the rest
[05:02] <zenmonk> are there any guis to help setup wpa?
[05:02] <Paddy_EIRE> theblue: why would you buy a free OS
[05:02] <theblue> ok, i'm off then.
[05:02] <theblue> Paddy_EIRE: no idea.
[05:02] <Truman_> pawan: That should let you startx, at least
[05:02] <Dr_willis> To support it.
[05:02] <chikita> how do i get rid of icons on the desktop?
[05:02] <summer_s4> theblue: there is no difference other then cd's or dvd read/rite speed
[05:02] <zenmonk> Paddy_EIRE: to support it and to have it support you
[05:02] <theblue> summer_s4: ahh.
[05:02] <theblue> Paddy_EIRE: they've all got a point.
[05:03] <_tcc> During init, Feisty takes a very long time to load ACPI modules and bring up HalD.
[05:03] <theblue> i'm off then.
[05:03] <_tcc> Why?
[05:03] <theblue> thanks all.
[05:03] <Truman_> Hey, I've got a question.. from windows if I install something that gives me ext3 support, I should be able to run like .exe files even if they're stored on the ext3 filesystem, right?
[05:03] <Truman_> as long as I'm booted to windows
[05:04] <Jaso1> Oh great, thanks..  I'm trying to use "connect to server" to transfer files from a school machine using ssh.  I can log into the school machine from the command line over ssh with no problems.  When I try to use the "connect to server" explorer interface to transfer files, however, it never fully connects.

[05:04] <summer_s4> does anyone know how to use novell login client with ubuntu?
[05:04] <dylanmoore> rockinghorse, did you have a suggestion on this wireless card issue?
[05:04] <zenmonk> Truman: yes.  fs-driver should do preciesly that, it does't matter to windows if it is on ntfs or fat or ext2
[05:05] <chikita> i wish ubuntu were at least half user friendly of what windows is...
[05:05] <IdNotFound> Truman_: yes... There is a nice driver, I believe it's on fs-driver.org (maybe without a dash) for Windows to recognize ext3 partitions
[05:05] <Quinton_> can someone guide me through how to make synaptic use internet instead of cd
[05:05] <Truman_> zenmonk: IdNotFound:  Thanks
[05:05] <Paddy_EIRE> dylanmoore: did that link help
[05:05] <summer_s4> chikita: that is linux for you.  I could help you find a windows-like linux
[05:05] <Truman_> Anyone want to help me out with some fstab/grub stuff?
[05:05] <Rockinghorse> dylanmoore, sometimes the /etc/network/interfaces file chokes on too many irrelevant entries. Prune file and try again
[05:06] <dylanmoore> paddy_erie, i tried that tutorial and restarted and i am still having the issue: seeing the APs but not connecting to any
[05:06] <Paddy_EIRE> dylanmoore: why not use ndiswrapper
[05:06] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to install firefox 3.0a7 as an application
[05:06] <zenmonk> Truman_: best just to ask directly, if someone knows they should speak up :)
[05:06] <g2g591> for some reason, gparted wont let me make one of my logical partitions bigger even though there is unallocated space (in the extended partation) and the extended partation is unmounted
[05:06] <chikita> i just wanr ro know how to get rid of icons on the desktop and how to manually add programs in the applications tab
  open your /etc/apt/source.list
[05:07] <gravemind> if I can ping another computer, what's the easiest way to transfer files between them?
[05:07] <eTiger13> rockinghorse: all mine has is the auto lo and iface lo inet dhcp. shouldn't there be something for eth0 too?
[05:07] <nicle> Quinton_: sorry, this file: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:07] <Quinton_> nicle: how?
[05:07] <dylanmoore> rockinghorse, all that file has in it is: "auto lo        iface lo inet loopback"
[05:07] <Truman_> zenmonk: It's a bit of a long story, but.. the skinny is that I moved my ext3 linux partition to some freespace, then expanded it to take up all of the freespace along with my old ext3 partition.  gparted/parted see everything as being fine, but fdisk shows a big hole right where my new ext3 partition is.  Also, I'm having trouble getting grub to let me boot to my new partition.
[05:08] <chohmann> i seem to have lost sound. where should i look to determine why?
[05:08] <Paddy_EIRE> gravemind: openssh-server is great
[05:08] <eyequeue> gravemind, scp
[05:08] <nicle>  Quinton_: open the file with editor whatever you like
[05:08] <Paddy_EIRE> eyequeue: whats scp
[05:08] <dylanmoore> paddy_erie, i tried using ndiswrapper, but ive gotten farthered using the firmware since i have read everywhere that my card (bcm4303) is supported
[05:08] <gravemind> Paddy_EIRE: eyequeue: yeah, it's a one time operation, so I think scp would be best
[05:08] <eyequeue> scp (1)              - secure copy (remote file copy program)
[05:08] <Quinton_> nicle: dont know how
[05:09] <zenmonk> Truman_: this is in the middle of where Windows was?
[05:09] <g2g591> i have some partation growing issues, can some one help?
[05:09] <eyequeue> Paddy_EIRE, uses ssh protocol to "cp" nonlocally
[05:09] <Paddy_EIRE> sounds useful gravemind eyequeue
[05:09] <nicle> Quinton_:  ok, I will send my sources.list to you
[05:09] <sssenator> hey, what do I do if I have my Nvida drivers installed, but compiz fusion lacks all of my windows in place??
[05:09] <Paddy_EIRE> eyequeue: any guides or info
[05:09] <sssenator> locks*
[05:09] <gravemind> eyequeue: I remember it being slower than smb though, is that true?
[05:10] <jqg> help!!!My server suffer DDOS attack, what should I do???
[05:10] <eyequeue> Paddy_EIRE, man scp should be in your openssh package
[05:10] <nicle> Quinton_: and just replace yours with my sources.list
[05:10] <dylanmoore> rockinghorse, all that file has in it is: "auto lo        iface lo inet loopback"
[05:10] <Truman_> zenmonk: It used to be an HFS+ partition for mac os X, but I successfully shrunk it down.. before I did anything else, my computer was fat32booot>hfs+>freespace>ext3>swap .. moved the ext3 into freespace, expanded it to take up all of that plus the old ext3
[05:10] <eyequeue> gravemind, can't say, no experince with smb myself
[05:10] <dylanmoore> paddy_erie, i tried using ndiswrapper, but ive gotten farther using the firmware since i have read everywhere that my card (bcm4303) is supported
[05:10] <_tcc> Has anyone else had the problem of a really slow boot in Feisty? It seems to be ACPI modules and Hald. I am using a laptop.
[05:10] <zenmonk> Truman_:no, wait im off my rocker I was thinking of chkdisk for some weird reason
[05:10] <eTiger13> dylanmoore: seems like we are in pretty close to the same boat
[05:11] <dylanmoore> etiger, what card do you have,  a bcm43  ?
[05:11] <Truman_> zenmonk: I gotcha.  Any ideas for me?
[05:11] <g2g591> i have some problems making my logical ex3 partation bigger, gparted lets me shrink it, but not make it bigger (yes there is free space in the extended partition)
[05:11] <zenmonk> Truman_: I don't kow, but maybe someone else here does, Im still a n00b myself, but I try to grab the easy questions when I see them
[05:11] <Truman_> g2g591: Is the freespace before or after your logical partition?
[05:11] <troy14> great ... now the sites are not working at all.
[05:11] <Truman_> zenmonk: Heh, I gotcha
[05:11] <troy14> I could really use a hand here...
[05:12] <g2g591> before
[05:12] <Truman_> g2g591: You can't expand that way
[05:12] <Rockinghorse> try putting the line, *iface eth? inet dhcp* in the interfaces file with eth? being the one you're trying to activate.  It is DHCP right?
[05:12] <g2g591> ok, then, how can i move it up
[05:12] <g2g591> i don't particularly want to reinstall
[05:12] <Truman_> g2g591: What you have to do is make a new ext3 partition out of the freespace, copy everything over to it, then grow it to eat up all of the space
[05:13] <Truman_> g2g591: then you have to fix grub so that it sees the new partition as bootable
[05:13] <g2g591> ok, know any good way to transfer installed apps?
[05:13] <dylanmoore> rockinghorse, yes, let me try that
[05:13] <Quinton_> nicle: ?
[05:13] <Truman_> g2g591: Is the freespace larger than your current linux install?
[05:13] <jqg> help!!!My server suffer DDOS attack, what should I do???
 can you see my request of sending file?
[05:14] <Quinton_> nicle: no
[05:14] <g2g591> its about the same size (5gig)
[05:15] <g2g591> im on a different install now
 ok, is your ubuntu's version feisty?
[05:15] <Truman_> g2g591: If it is, after you turn the freespace into an ext3 partition and mount it, you should be able to, say cp -rvp /media/old /media/new
[05:15] <dylanmoore> rockinghorse, i put that new line in the file, modprobed bcm43xx again, but i still cannot connect to my AP
[05:15] <Quinton_> nicle: yes
[05:15] <g2g591> k

[05:16] <Truman_> g2g591: err, you'll probably also have to sudo cp -rvp /media/sdaold /media/sdanew

[05:17] <iqon> Truman_: mine used to work just fine, now it won't finish the process of going to sleep
[05:17] <Truman_> iqon: Ah, mine won't come back
[05:18] <Rockinghorse> noccy, but I would ask in alt.os.linux.ubuntu some wiz's there
 add : deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse
[05:18] <mflynn> iqon: I always have trouble getting my laptop to sleep, I find it helps close as many apps as possible, also the swap on this machine disappears once in a while

[05:28] <asdf> Can anyone help me?
[05:28] <pawan> how to start ubuntu in safe mode
[05:28] <gareth> sure, tell us
[05:28] <kahrytan> bastid_raZor: I just reinstalled windows
[05:28] <Ashfire908> i need to rerun it
[05:28] <bastid_raZor> i did not eat my dog.. but i could probably of sold him to the chinese food people
[05:28] <pawan> i want to disable my graphics card
[05:28] <Rockinghorse> astro76, yes, the following lines should be in /etc/network/interfaces: auto lo    iface lo inet loopback   iface eth? inet dhcp all on its own line.  then ifup eth? to activate HTH
[05:28] <asdf> My network card doesn't work, even tho (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards3Com) page says it is supposed to be auto detected, and working.  It doesn't even detect it.
[05:28] <eyequeue> pawan, what would that mean?
[05:28] <korhalf> gareth: lol
[05:28] <bastid_raZor> kahrytan, sorry to hear that
[05:28] <pawan> i want to disable my graphics card
[05:28] <Ashfire908> how do i reset and rerun the ubuntu device databse tool?
[05:29] <kahrytan> bastid_raZor: I could buy another ide drive or just convert to SATA motherboard.
[05:29] <eyequeue> pawan, i have no idea on that one
[05:29] <Wulfie_alien> hey folks - I am trying to mount quake4 disc 2 but for some reason however i mount it only root can read it
[05:29] <bastid_raZor> kahrytan, i have windows in VMWare only.. i would never give windows more than virtual access
[05:29] <Yestoi> hmm, is there a way to have the bash shell "implanted" onto the desktop (no window border)?
 what's your safe mode meaning?
[05:29] <gareth> with profilactic
[05:30] <Rockinghorse> I meant each on it's own line ie 3 lines
[05:30] <Truman_> Yestoi: So you mean like the whole screen is the shell?
[05:30] <pawan> in which the drivers have been disabled
[05:30] <christopher> #ubuntu-es
 u can try the recover mode in the grub
[05:30] <Yestoi> Truman_: No, like the normal gnome wm, but in the background a terminal
[05:30] <Yestoi> It sounds stupid
[05:31] <Truman_> Yestoi: lol.. I'm not sure about that.  You could always use ctrl+alt+f2 and ctrl+alt+f7 to switch back and forth from shell to x
[05:31] <Yestoi> In other terms a screenlet type thing
[05:31] <kahrytan> bastid_raZor: Vmware isnt smart for me
[05:31] <bastid_raZor> back to watching movies via 2nd ubuntu box connected to the tv
[05:31] <spike724> has anyone gotten the error about updates not being authenticated?
[05:31] <bastid_raZor> kahrytan, installing windows is less of an intellegent option
[05:31] <pawan> how
[05:31] <Yestoi> I mean to have a shell thats in the background, thus not having to open a terminal every time I need to do something
[05:32] <korhalf> How do i go about mounting UIF files?
[05:32] <kahrytan> bastid_raZor: But required. Linux sucks for what I need Windows for
[05:32] <Ashfire908> how do i reset and rerun the ubuntu device databse tool?
[05:32] <Yestoi> Without switching tty
[05:32] <Rockinghorse> you can add auto lo and auto eth? for auto activation i think
[05:32] <pawan> how to enter recover mode in grub
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> kahrytan, wine? windows is horrid all around. more than one option to solve windows issues
[05:32] <zedQ> Hello, how do I apply a .txt WINE patch
[05:33] <kahrytan> bastid_raZor: backup used dvds I buy that are scratched?
[05:33] <astro76> Rockinghorse, it should be a specific ethx, not just eth in interfaces
[05:33] <dylanmoore> hello, I'm having problems with my bcm4303 broadcom chipset wireless card.  the card will see available APs, but will not connect to any of them
 is your os ubuntu?

[05:33] <aes_ebu> how to I unload a module?
[05:33] <pawan> ubuntu 7.04
[05:33] <astro76> aes_ebu, rmmod
[05:33] <eyequeue> rmmod (8)            - simple program to remove a module from the Linux Kernel
[05:33] <Rockinghorse> yes, naturally eth0, eth1, etc
[05:34] <astro76> Rockinghorse, ok sorry ;)
 reboot your machine and you will see the recover mode in the grub list
[05:34] <aes_ebu> astro76: thanks
[05:34] <pawan> ok
 by the way, some  driver is built in the kernel. if u wanna disable them ,u must recompile them
[05:35] <bastid_raZor> scratched...

[05:42] <amicrawler> i c
[05:42] <bruenig> that is especially silly on unix
[05:42] <bruenig> which ignores file extensions
[05:42] <Jack_Sparrow> asdf: gimme a minute
[05:43] <Rockinghorse> astro76, do you have 4 interfaces you want activated? It's better to prune it to the bare minimum.

[06:15] <Richard> Hello Guys\
[06:15] <bruenig> barnie, metacity
[06:15] <Marthy> gnome is
[06:15] <malocite> yes....
[06:15] <malocite> :)
[06:15] <bruenig> gnome is not a windows manager
[06:15] <PF|Ubuntu> Anyone know how to force a umount? I have a drive that says it's still mounted but when I try to umount, it says it's umounted.
[06:15] <Richard> Network bonding anyone knows?
[06:16] <randoman> so any ideas on my question guys
[06:16] <randoman> ?
[06:16] <randoman> ok I have apache2.0x and php5.3x in /wwwroot folder. I moved all nessisarry lib files for apache. I go to chroot /wwwroot /bin/httpd and it gives me this " /wwwroot/conf/httpd.conf: No such file or directory" i do ls /wwwroot/conf/httpd.conf it shows /wwwroot/conf/httpd.conf as there" Any ideas why chroot would do that
[06:16] <asdf> Anyone else wanna take a guess?
[06:16] <randoman> sorry for the length
[06:16] <piedoggie> PF|Ubuntu: reboot
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> piedoggie, ok
[06:16] <bruenig> randoman, gaim has that
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> randoman, and Pidgin
 : do this:  ls /etc/init.d/nfs*
[06:16] <Bonkers> I want to replace an ubuntu supplied driver with an ndiswrapper one, how do I make sure the ubuntu one never gets loaded automatically?
[06:16] <PF|Ubuntu> Pidgin is the updated verstion of GAIM
[06:16] <bruenig> gaim pidgin all the same
[06:16] <asdf> Who was it that told me to work smarter, I'd like to see if that person has any idea whats wrong
[06:16] <eTiger13> asdf: when you go to system -> admin -> networking what shows up?
[06:16] <Richard> Anyone knows about network bonding in Ubuntu here?
[06:16] <asdf> dialup
[06:16] <asdf> thats it
[06:17] <asdf> My network card doesn't even show up
[06:17] <asdf> in device manager
[06:17] <bruenig> gui is funny
[06:17] <piedoggie> Richard: unfortunately, bonding is rather difficult
[06:17] <taxman> hmm, I deleted a partition in order to make more space for my ubuntu install. Does gparted not allow growing an ext3 partition or is it just me?
[06:17] <Rockinghorse> Bonkers edit /etc/modprobe.d
[06:17] <DShepherd> Jos3, python GUI? Applications-Programming-Python ?
[06:17] <bruenig> watching people try to solve their problems with gui is funny
[06:17] <eTiger13> asdf: laptop or desktop?
[06:17] <asdf> desktop
[06:17] <bruenig> eTiger13, like it matters?
[06:17] <Richard> How do I input DNS when i use network bonding?
[06:17] <Bonkers> Rockinghorse: the driver isn't mentioned in there, maybe hotplug loads it?
[06:18] <piedoggie> pick your primary interface
[06:18] <SunmanXII> so- pretty random question. there's a self-extracting winRAR file in a form of an .exe. how would i open it?... wine didnt work right but i may have misconfigured it
[06:18] <bruenig> asdf, what is the name of the interface
[06:18] <eTiger13> bruenig: it does. with a desktop you could try a different card to see if it the card itself doesn't work. can't do that with a laptop
[06:18] <Jos3> I don't see the programming thing in there
[06:18] <asdf> Which interface?
[06:18] <Bonkers> SunmanXII: apt-get install rar; rar x file
[06:18] <malocite> nicle: do those have to be installed on both host and client?
[06:18] <bruenig> Jos3, this is not a programming channel, I would suggest one of those
[06:18] <asdf> The ones thats there? its the pp0 thing dialup crap
[06:18] <Richard> I have 3 nic's and I have 2 Internet connection from 2 different ISP's
[06:18] <asdf> I've been through every option and its onlyf or dialup
[06:18] <bruenig> asdf, the one that isn't working
[06:19] <eTiger13> buenig: if it was working it should be ethX
[06:19] <Rockinghorse> correction edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and put in line blacklist <modulename>
[06:19] <neo2dot0> how do I config samba so that the connecting xp machine asks the user for authentication?
[06:19] <asdf> 3com 3c905 is the card
[06:19] <asdf> That doesn'te ven get detected
[06:19] <bruenig> asdf, no, the eth name
[06:19] <neo2dot0> security = ?
[06:19] <bruenig> or wlan or ath or whatever
[06:19] <Jos3> Was just trying to figure out how to bring the gui up
[06:19] <asdf> There isn't one
[06:19] <asdf> It doesn't detect the card
[06:19] <bruenig> asdf, what name would it be
 u just need install the nfs-kernel-server on your host pc
[06:19] <bruenig> eth1?
[06:19] <asdf> eth0 afaik
 so do :  ls /etc/init.d/nfs* on your host, and let's know the result
[06:20] <bruenig> asdf, ok, this is one of the flaws with the distro does everything for you model, if it fails, there is no documentation on how they actually did it
[06:20] <rockets> Can I put irssi themes in ~/.irssi/themes
[06:20] <SunmanXII> Bonkers: so I just do rar and the name of the file?
[06:20] <asdf> lol
[06:20] <asdf> ITs worked before
[06:20] <asdf> Just not today
[06:20] <piedoggie> I have been fighting with LVMS for the past three hours. If ever an application called for a simplified interface, that's my number one candidate
[06:20] <bruenig> asdf, I assume you need to load some module and go from there, what module that is is not known by me, I would try to find it though
[06:21] <asdf> lol
[06:21] <babarhaq> hi all wats the default windows manager in ubuntu?
[06:21] <Marthy> gnome
[06:21] <malocite> nicle still saying permission denied
[06:21] <asdf> I've looked for said module for bout 4 hours before I decided i'd come here and ask
[06:21] <bruenig> babarhaq, metacity
[06:21] <babarhaq> gnome is the desktop
[06:21] <bruenig> gnome is not a wm
[06:21] <piedoggie> I am about 30 seconds away from saying "screw it" and just using plain old partitions
[06:21] <bruenig> gnome is not a desktop
[06:21] <asdf> I've wasted over an hour and a half here
[06:21] <babarhaq> bruenig: thanx
[06:21] <T-Connect> Hi.
[06:21] <lebkidus> yo
[06:22] <Bonkers> SunmanXII: ya, but you need to give it a command and that's x, so "rar x <file>"
[06:22] <Richard> Guys anyone knows network bonding
[06:22] <eTiger13> asdf: do you have another card you could try?
[06:22] <asdf> Theo nly thing I could find was for linux kernel that was 4 years old
[06:22] <asdf> nope
 I mean that do :  ls /etc/init.d/nfs* to let me which nfs server you installed
[06:22] <piedoggie> Richard: what are you trying to do?
[06:22] <Bonkers> how do I turn off the ubuntu graphical boot sequence? I just want it to stay text-mode and see the output
[06:22] <bruenig> asdf, you can always try to compile it against your kernel
[06:22] <bruenig> asdf, you will need linux-source though
[06:22] <Das> v
[06:22] <Das>  I was having this problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=512208 (Ubuntu just wont install), so I was told to try the text version.

[06:22] <asdf> yea
[06:22] <asdf> I dont really feel like even attempting that
[06:22] <malocite> nicle: malocite@editone:/etc$ ls /etc/init.d/nfs*
[06:22] <malocite> /etc/init.d/nfs-common         /etc/init.d/nfs-user-server
[06:22] <malocite> /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server
[06:23] <T-Connect> Ubuntu can use any skins?
[06:23] <Rockinghorse> find the device driver in device manager.  select your card and click Advanced and look for entry for info.linux.driver.  That is the device name to blacklist
[06:23] <asdf> Thought this ubuntu crap was supposed to be a good os
[06:23] <nicle>  <malocite>: yes , what's the output
[06:23] <tritium> asdf: why are you not trying a recent release?
[06:23] <asdf> Because I dont haev a cd-r
[06:23] <asdf> or 3 hours to download it
[06:23] <asdf> or a burner
[06:23] <malocite> nicle that was the output.... you told me to do ls
[06:23] <nicle> malocite: ok, follow me
[06:24] <T-Connect> No dvd drive ether? asdf
[06:24] <asdf> I found my ubuntu cd's and figured I'd install it
[06:24] <asdf> nope
[06:24] <malocite> nicle: 1.0.12-4
[06:24] <piedoggie> asdf: it's not just Ubuntu, but many things in the Linux world are "less than ideal".  One could say they're just as broken as Windows, just in a different direction.  Not me, but one could.
[06:24] <eTiger13> asdf: did you install 6.06 or are running it live?
[06:24] <asdf> install
[06:24] <tritium> asdf: well, you blame ubuntu, but don't try out it's latest improvements
[06:24] <asdf> from live
[06:24] <nicle>  malocite: apt-get remove nfs-user-server
[06:24] <asdf> lol
[06:24] <nicle>  malocite: apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
[06:24] <eTiger13> asdf: when you ran live did it detect it?
[06:24] <asdf> so explain something for me tritium
[06:24] <asdf> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards3Com
[06:24] <colla> hi
[06:24] <asdf> See that page right there says my network card is auto detected and works fine
[06:25] <asdf> I've yet to see ANYWHERE on my setup where it even SEES my card let alone detects and installs anything for it
[06:25] <sauvin> Does ubuntu not automatically mount USB drives when they're inserted?
[06:25] <nicle>  malocite: check your /etc/exports file
[06:25] <piedoggie> asdf: that's probably with the latest release
[06:25] <asdf> nope
[06:25] <asdf> that was from a 6.06 guide
[06:25] <T-Connect> Does the cd run live update for downloading a new Ubuntu?
[06:25] <piedoggie> for example, I had a card that was listed as supported for the past three releases and it didn't work until the latest
[06:25] <nicle>  malocite: /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
[06:25] <DShepherd> sauvin, should
[06:25] <colla> hi
[06:25] <asdf> piedoggie its worked before
[06:25] <sauvin> It didn't.
[06:26] <malocite> nicle: /home/malocite/elisa 192.168.1.1/192.168.1.255(rw)
[06:26] <asdf> It worked fine when I installed ubuntu when I got the cd's origionally
[06:26] <piedoggie> I still can't get DVD playing to work and my video card is toast because the driver worked back with warty warthog but has not worked since
[06:26] <sauvin> How can I forced ubuntu to detect a USB drive?
[06:26] <asdf> lol
[06:26] <piedoggie> so yes, it's entirely possible for something to be listed as working but in reality it doesn't
[06:26] <asdf> this is the EXACT same computer except for a video card chagne
[06:27] <asdf> now sound and network doesn't work
[06:27] <T-Connect> I wonder what the new Ubuntu going to look like?
[06:27] <Ubun`tux> sauvin try, mount -a
[06:27] <asdf> doesn't even find the cards
[06:27] <piedoggie> sounds about right
[06:27] <sauvin> lsusb isn't finding it, either.
[06:27] <malocite> nicle: elisa is obviously the directory i am trying to share, and I wanted it aailable to any machine on my network (specifically 192.168.1.101)
[06:27] <sauvin> I can't mount it until the system knows it's there.
[06:27] <Neg> hello

[06:38] <imMute> malocite: for some vauge definition of smartest
[06:38] <malocite> :)
[06:38] <Hobbsee> malocite: you certainly have an interesting way of proving that, not following the rules.
[06:39] <exile> where is the ubuntu help channel?
[06:39] <Hobbsee> exile: here
[06:39] <Mailson> tank you, go have at your room
[06:39] <bruenig> soviet russia?
[06:39] <malocite> I switched over to ubunto, then bought a second computer to load ubuntu on that will be the media center, and it will pull the stuff off of the server
[06:39] <eTiger13> can someone help me figure out why my wireless card is showing up as eth0 instead of wlan0?
[06:39] <malocite> hobbsee: what rule did I miss?
[06:39] <malocite> nicle: Thanks a tonne, thats so perfect
[06:39] <Hobbsee> !caps | malocite
[06:39] <ubotu> malocite: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:39] <T-Connect> Ubuntu is awsome.
[06:40] <malocite> sorry, I was joyoys :)
[06:40] <bruenig> !ot | T-Connect
[06:40] <ubotu> T-Connect: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:40] <exile> oh, okay.. I just installed 7.04, and I'm attempting to install SSH and I've tried "sudo apt-get install openssh-server, I've tried ssh, ssh-server, and even used the cache search function to pull up anything with "ssh" in it, and I can't find any server packages.
[06:40] <malocite> next time I'll whisper
[06:40] <Hobbsee> malocite: :)
[06:40] <tritium> Newb420`irie: for one thing, I've asked you questions that you've not answered
[06:40] <summer_s4> what is the windows support section?
[06:40] <Hobbsee> malocite: for some reason i'm confusing you with Mailson too
[06:40] <nicle> malocite:  u r welcome
[06:40] <Hansel> exile - look in /etc/ssh or maybe /etc/sshd  should have the config in there... it is config'd through network so /etc/rc.d/network restart
[06:40] <Mailson> I have AK thander
[06:41] <malocite> nicle: You ever use freevo?
 what's that?
[06:41] <malocite> nicle: Its a media center for linux, supports all sorts of features
[06:41] <exile> Hansel: I do have that folder, so I'm assuming it's running now? It's refusing my connection through PuTTY in windows, I don't need to forward that port because I'm behind a router do I? I'm trying to connect to another pc behind it
[06:42] <malocite> nicle: Tv in, recording, time shifting, auto recording etc, I'm looking forward to it... once I get the remote working :)
[06:42] <eTiger13> can someone help me connect to my AP that has WPA enabled using only command line?
[06:42] <summer_s4> what is the deference between ubuntu versons?
[06:43] <tritium> malocite: there are mythtv packages in ubuntu
 That's cool
[06:44] <T-Connect> How come flash player refuse to install? The one that I download from Synaptic Package Manager.
[06:44] <malocite> tritium: Is that the best?
[06:44] <darkaura> hey morph you there?
[06:44] <tritium> malocite: it's all personal opinion.  You decide what's best for you :)
 but my company is developing a device with MS's media center
[06:44] <T-Connect> I have a report on flash player.
[06:44] <summer_s4> how do i install firefox 3.0 a 7 as an application?
[06:45] <malocite> tritium: I don't have tv-in or anything, just using it for a media center, I don'thave cable
[06:45] <T-Connect> I need to send it to ubuntu+1 right?
[06:45] <malocite> nicle: Cool like a hardware pvr/media center kind of thing?
[06:46] <DShepherd> T-Connect, its gutsy?
 it 's a DMA(digital media Adapter), and it communicate with MS media center with remote desktop protocol
[06:46] <T-Connect> I'm using 7.04.
[06:47] <DShepherd> oh
 it is a embed device
[06:47] <bruenig> sauvin, there is no su in ubuntu, refine your malicious command, also why cd into /, why not just put that after rm, kind of pointless really
[06:48] <DShepherd> well file your report for Feisty
[06:48] <eTiger13> can someone help me connect to my AP that has WPA enabled using only command line?
[06:48] <malocite> nicle: Your company, or the company you work for?
[06:48] <DShepherd> T-Connect, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu
[06:48] <avis> how difficult is it for ubuntu to connect using WPA ?  can it be done through gnome's network manager ?
[06:49] <malocite> oh, btw, how do I make a directory auto mount when it boots up?
[06:49] <darkaura> I accendently removed what would be the equivulent to the Task Bar in windows off of the top bar of my ubuntu how would I get it back?
[06:49] <sauvin> Bruenig, because I forgot to say that I do an "ls" and a "pwd" before doing such a thing. I'm wiping out the contents of a USB drive.
[06:49] <Yestoi> Is there a package on ubuntu's repositories on rar archive extraction?
[06:49] <sauvin> Yestoi: yes.
[06:49] <tritium> !rar > Yestoi
[06:49] <alecwh> !xkill
[06:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xkill - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:50] <DShepherd> darkaura, do you still have the bottom bar? if you do right-click that and select 'new panel'
[06:50] <elmajico> is it possible to move my ubuntu partition? Currently i have (60gig Win)|(512Swap)|(30gig Ubuntu), i would like to delete the windows partition and move ubuntu to the front of the disk
[06:50] <dem0n> how do i find out what type of wireless card i have?
[06:51] <dem0n> nvm
[06:51] <Zurotzis> hello
[06:51] <untung> hello
[06:51] <Rockinghorse> dem0, device manager
[06:52] <VenkatS> Greetings. Does somebody here have experience with the Feisty network slowness related problems?
[06:52] <Zurotzis> does anyone know were to download the winAMP eqf file to XMMS
[06:52] <DShepherd> darkaura, but I think you will need to also re-add some applets
[06:52] <untung> i have PC with AMD Atlon K7 650Mhz. I tried to run Ubuntu 6.1 live , can not work
[06:52] <untung> it was very slow
[06:52] <eTiger13> avis: yes it is. its very easy
[06:52] <untung> and i tried ubuntu 5.1 installation. it works.
[06:53] <darkaura> no I took out the bottom bar cause I didn't really need it
[06:53] <avis> eTiger13, how do you connect via WPA ?
[06:54] <eTiger13> do you have the windows network looking icon on your taskbar
[06:54] <avis> yes gnome network manager
[06:54] <avis> i thought it only supported WEP though
[06:54] <eTiger13> if you click it, a list of access points should show up
[06:54] <DShepherd> darkaura, try Alt+F2 and type gnome-panel
[06:54] <eTiger13> avis: nope, I've connected wpa. I just can't connect wpa using command line only
[06:55] <avis> is it true that gparted can resize ext3 partitions non destructively ?
[06:55] <darkaura> I've Detected a panel already running and will now exit
[06:55] <exile> After I make changes to a ssh_config file, how do I reset the network?
[06:56] <elmajico> Is it possible to move my ubuntu partition?? Currently i have (60gig Win)|(512Swap)|(30gig Ubuntu), i would like to delete the windows partition and move ubuntu and swap to the front and extend ubuntu the remaining 60gig
[06:56] <Tixer> I need to run an HTTP proxy on Ubuntu, and it has to support logging / user accounts
[06:56] <DShepherd> darkaura, i dont know then
[06:56] <Tixer> Any suggestions?
[06:57] <Ta1> How do I fix a broken icon?
[06:57] <sauvin> Now watch my (try to) figure out how to mount a partition on the usb drive so that a regular user has RW access to it :sigh:
[06:57] <sauvin> Tai: what's broken about it?
[06:57] <sauvin> Erm, Ta1, what's broken about it?
[06:58] <darkaura> what I mean is the system tray type thing that shows all the programs running like if I were to click the x on Gaim and the buddy window disappears to the top right corner but you still see the icon
[06:58] <astro76> exile, sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart, should be sufficient
[06:58] <exile> thank you
[06:58] <dfgas>  i have a sound blaster live sb0490 and i can one do one sound at a time
[06:58] <Tixer> !ubotu Squid
[06:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about squid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:59] <Ta1> sauvin: it doesn't show the proper picture.. amarok.. usually shows the wolf.. now it just shows a blank icon with a red x
[06:59] <sauvin> darkura, my Kopete does the same thing; the client doesn't actually quit when you hit the x in the upper right corner, it just disappears from the desktop and remains resident in the tray.
[06:59] <sauvin> If you want to quit gaim, I think, you're going to have to do the File->Exit thing.
[06:59] <echosystm> i have a 233mhz pc with 128mb ram
[06:59] <sauvin> Ta1, is this icon on your desktop?
[06:59] <echosystm> im installing a command line system
[06:59] <zerokill88> is there anything for ubuntu liek Realplayer was for windows???
[06:59] <echosystm> what size should the swap be?
[07:00] <savetheWorld> 6
[07:00] <zerokill88> 2 g echosystem
[07:00] <Ta1> sauvin: No, in the apps menu and on my panel.. icon is missing in both places.
[07:00] <echosystm> 2gb?! :|
[07:00] <sauvin> Zero, do you want to play RealPlayer media, or are you just interested in a general media player?
[07:00] <codyb9375> no
[07:00] <echosystm> the entire hard drive is only 5
[07:00] <echosystm> lol
[07:00] <zerokill88> echosystem maybe a littel more
[07:00] <sauvin> Ta1, what happens if you RIGHT CLICK on the icon? You should be able to edit its properties.
[07:00] <zerokill88> sauvin not jsut a general media player. the BEST :)
[07:00] <exile> astro76: It says there isn't an intscript for SSH, and there isn't one in that folder. Would that explain why I can't connect to it? I'm assuming it's not running?
[07:01] <sauvin> LOL. Zero, ask 5 people in this room what the best media player is and you'll get 15 different answers and a flamewar.
[07:01] <astro76> exile, are you the one who said you couldn't find openssh-server package before? because that is the package name
[07:01] <tritium> exile: did you install the server yet?
[07:01] <zerokill88> sauvin lol true, but something parable to RealPlayer
[07:01] <Lucios> prefer vlc and mplayer
[07:01] <sauvin> I like vlc, mplayer, noatun, xine... heh... I use a variety.
[07:01] <exile> It wouldn't install with apt-get, and /etc/ssh exists, so i'm assuming it was preinstalled?
[07:02] <astro76> exile, no that's for the client to
[07:02] <exile> it said that package did not exist
[07:02] <exile> oh
[07:02] <astro76> exile, need to sort out your /etc/apt/sources.list I guess
[07:02] <VenkatS> I have a very strange case where Feisty svn checkout via command line takes substantially longer time compared to Edgy live cd in the same machine.
[07:02] <astro76> !sources | exile
[07:02] <ubotu> exile: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[07:02] <exile> it's a brand new install of ubuntu, this is the first startup
[07:02] <zerokill88> sauvin oh ok, im jsut using the one that come with feisty, i probably should google
[07:02] <VenkatS> Anyone has a similar experience with Feisty as well?
[07:02] <darkaura> but I don't see the icon in the top right corner of the screen like I'm suppose to I'm wondering how to get that back
[07:02] <astro76> exile, feisty?
[07:02] <exile> thank you
[07:03] <exile> eh?
[07:03] <exile> sorry
[07:03] <sauvin> Don't bother googling. use the Synaptic Package Manager under the System menu.
[07:03] <codyb9375> echosystm: swap partition is normally one and a half times your RAM installed form what i know
[07:03] <astro76> exile, 7.04?
[07:03] <exile> yes sir
[07:03] <echosystm> ok, thanks codyb9375
[07:04] <summer_s4> does anyone know the blibber blabber channel?
[07:04] <korhalf> If i were to transfer Reason 3.0 from windows to Linux, how would i make it work
[07:04] <korhalf> would i need to copy registry entries too or what?
[07:04] <exile> astro76:  weird thing is, the command was in the wiki for this version, heh
[07:04] <summer_s4> korhalf: i don't think linux has a registry
[07:04] <codyb9375> korhalf: you need to use a compatability layer to run .exe files in Linux such as WINE *winehq.com)
[07:04] <DShepherd> darkaura, what icon is that?
[07:04] <dolog> Where I can find beryl
[07:04] <Ta1> sauvin: yes, I can change the icon on the desktop but I can't change the one in the apps menu
[07:04] <towlie> i instal ntfs fuse and it mounts both of my volumes but it only makes a shortcut on the desktop to one of the 2 volumes. how can i figure out why its not doing that . in a terminal i can fully access both
[07:05] <Tixer> Any suggestions for an HTTP proxy server in Ubuntu, that supports accounts?
[07:05] <astro76> exile, and openssh-server is in main too, (universe and multiverse come enabled on feisty anyway), what error do you get when you apt-get install openssh-server?
[07:05] <exile> Package openssh-server is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:05] <Kris07> Is anyone familiar with Ubuntu Ultimate?
[07:05] <bruenig> gnome has a registry
[07:06] <bruenig> Kris07, it is crap
[07:06] <exile> and there's no referred packages on the list =\
[07:06] <dolog> Where I can find beryl ?????????????????/
[07:06] <bruenig> dolog, calm down
[07:06] <Hobbsee> !beryl | dolog
[07:06] <ubotu> dolog: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:06] <astro76> exile, don't see it in synaptic either? maybe try an apt-get update?
[07:06] <darkaura> DShepherd I don't have any when I run gaim or my desklettes or beryl and they are suppose to goto the top right hand corner of the screen in like a system try they don't appear
[07:06] <NemesisD> hi all, im trying to watch al jazeera english in firefox and I believe it uses real (.ram file), for some reason the mplayer plugin loads it and once it finishes it just says "stopped"
[07:07] <astro76> exile, you could also pastebin your sources.list if you want us to check it
[07:07] <zyth> NemesisD, install realplayer?
[07:07] <DShepherd> darkaura, add the notification area applet. i think that's is what you need
[07:07] <exile> astro76: the update worked, I just guessed and typed apt-get update, lol
[07:07] <dolog> ubotu : No one for Help or no one answer
[07:08] <NemesisD> zyth, i'd like to avoid that if at all possible, plus when i click the link for the standalone player it takes me to the real site saying that real is not available for my OS :/
[07:08] <bruenig> !love | dolog
[07:08] <ubotu> dolog: Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[07:08] <codyb9375> ubotu is a bot in the channel for FAQ's
[07:08] <bruenig> codyb9375, shhh
[07:08] <zyth> NemesisD, there is realplayer for linux...
[07:08] <exile> astro76: thank you very much
[07:08] <darkaura> Thanks DSheperd that was what I was looking for
[07:08] <astro76> exile, you're welcome
[07:08] <DShepherd> darkaura, ok
[07:08] <dolog> !love bruenig
[07:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about love bruenig - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:08] <Tixer> Can someone help me with squid?
[07:09] <dolog> lol
[07:09] <HorizonXP> hey guys
[07:09] <Tixer> Specifically, eating it.
[07:09] <MajorPayne> !hi | HorizonXP
[07:09] <ubotu> HorizonXP: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:09] <HorizonXP> i'm tryin to help my friend install Feisty on his Toshiba laptop
[07:09] <bruenig> !enter
[07:09] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:09] <korhalf> !joke
[07:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about joke - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:09] <bruenig> !botabuse | korhalf
[07:09] <ubotu> korhalf: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[07:10] <choudesh> korhalf, that was funny in itself.
[07:10] <korhalf> !cocaine
[07:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cocaine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:10] <bruenig> !botabuse | korhalf
[07:10] <NemesisD> zyth, someone should tell real.com that, and is it as bad as the windows version :/
[07:10] <korhalf> chill son
[07:10] <HorizonXP> it's installed, and working... it detects his intel wireless card, and it seems to connect to our wifi network, but can't seem to connect to any websites
[07:10] <choudesh> korhalf, chill out. you will get kicked if you continue to abuse the bot.
[07:10] <bruenig> HorizonXP, what is his card
[07:10] <DShepherd> dolog, enable the universe repositories. apt-get install beryl should give you beryl
[07:10] <rockets> ubotu needs an !annoy like #debian has
[07:11] <choudesh> heh
[07:11] <Ta1> Anybody know how to fix a broken icon?  In Apps/sound & video/Amarok ... amarok doesn't show any icon.. when I add it to the panel it shows a blank icon with a red x
[07:11] <bruenig> Ta1, you have to point it to the icon when you add the launcher
[07:11] <choudesh> US Repo's will probably be slow for about 2 minutes.
[07:12] <Curley_Sue> hallo, does anyone knows how to compare two spreadsheets according to particular entries (eg ID and DATE columns)
[07:12] <codyb9375> Tal, when you drag it to the panel you can right click and choose properties then click icon
[07:12] <bruenig> Curley_Sue, if it was in plain text, you could do it in the shell
[07:12] <bruenig> with awk
[07:12] <Ta1> bruenig: I know how to do that... that isn't the issue... the icon was there, now it isn't..
[07:12] <bruenig> Ta1, dpkg -L amarok | grep png
[07:12] <HorizonXP> bruenig: Same as mine, Intel PRO/Wireless 8945
[07:12] <bruenig> you mean 3
[07:13] <Curley_Sue> bruenig: i need it for several M$ excel files
[07:13] <HorizonXP> bruenig: yes I do
[07:13] <bruenig> HorizonXP, what does "sudo modprobe ipw3945" do
[07:13] <Ta1> Osm
[07:13] <HorizonXP> bruenig: Nothing.
[07:13] <bruenig> HorizonXP, good
[07:13] <bruenig> HorizonXP, what is the name of the interface?
[07:14] <bruenig> eth1?
[07:15] <HorizonXP> bruenig: Actually, it's not there
[07:15] <HorizonXP> bruenig: We kinda messed things up by going to Network in PReferences, and disabling roaming mode
[07:15] <Ta1> I know how to find the icons.. but how do I fix the icon of an app in the apps menu?
[07:15] <HorizonXP> bruenig: Now, no wireless networks show up in nm-applet
[07:15] <bruenig> HorizonXP, gui zzzzzzzzzzzzz, what does iwconfig give you
[07:16] <bobgill> I have a "Filesystem.desktop" file in one of my mounted partitions, is this file necessary?
[07:16] <dolog> How I can show The NTFS partition ?
[07:16] <bruenig> bobgill, no
[07:16] <HorizonXP> bruenig: eth1
[07:16] <bense> anyone know how to create another virtual desktop with gnome?
[07:16] <bobgill> bruenig: cool, I can del it ?
[07:16] <bruenig> bobgill, sure
[07:16] <bobgill> ok, what purpose does it serve ?
[07:16] <bruenig> HorizonXP, do iwlist eth1 scan, does the AP show up
[07:17] <bruenig> bobgill, I have never seen that before
[07:17] <bobgill> ok
[07:17] <Rockinghorse> bense, Desktop Properties?
[07:17] <bobgill> i rm'd it
[07:17] <bobgill> thx
[07:17] <dolog> ow I can show The NTFS partition ?
[07:17] <HorizonXP> bruenig: yes a bunch do including ours
[07:17] <bense> Rockinghorse: i can't find it in there
[07:17] <codyb9375> dolog, what do you mean?
[07:17] <bruenig> HorizonXP, is your's encrypted or not?
[07:17] <codyb9375> dolog, as in mounting a NFTS partition?
[07:17] <HorizonXP> bruenig: yes
[07:18] <Rockinghorse> i'm using kde not familiar w/ Gnome.  Shouldn't be  too hard
[07:18] <dolog> codyb9375: yes i want mounting Ntfs partition
[07:18] <bruenig> HorizonXP, ok, is the password an ascii thing or did you go ahead and put the hex or whatever it is
[07:18] <korhalf> Excuse my behaviour earlier gentlemen
[07:18] <bobgill> Is there a way to have the files I delete from a mounted partition go to my main Trash? ie., my /home/user/.Trash
[07:18] <korhalf> But is there anyway to decompress UIF files in Linux?
[07:18] <ccharles> Hi! is there a place, similar to http://packages.qa.debian.org/ for Ubuntu ?
[07:18] <HorizonXP> bruenig: it's ASCII, 128-bit WEP
[07:18] <korhalf> apparently MagicISO is teling me its not a real UIF file
[07:18] <Rockinghorse> bense, Google virutal desktop gnome...
[07:19] <bruenig> HorizonXP, right, ok do "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid YOURSSID key s:YOURASCIIPASSPHRASE
[07:19] <bruenig> "
[07:19] <HorizonXP> bruenig: we have the HEX version
[07:19] <astro76> ccharles, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[07:19] <bruenig> HorizonXP, well if you want to put the hex, just take away the s:, and put the hex
[07:19] <Lucios> !dpkg
[07:19] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[07:19] <korhalf> any ideas
[07:20] <korhalf> i think UIF is a propietary format as well
[07:20] <dolog> How I can mounting Ntfs ?
[07:20] <korhalf> its a damn shame i cant convert it to iso or something and then mount :(
[07:20] <codyb9375> korhalf, i think PowerISO uses the .uif format
[07:20] <bruenig> HorizonXP, after that do: sudo dhclient eth1

[07:22] <bruenig> my neighbor's router does that from time to time, it will be up and I can clearly see it but when I try to connect to it, it won't give me ip
[07:22] <dolog> Thnks
[07:23] <mrwho> microphone anyone?
[07:23] <bruenig> I will be associated with it and everything, and it still won't give me an ip
[07:24] <Curley_Sue> hallo, does anyone knows how to compare two M$ excel spreadsheets according to particular entries (eg ID and DATE columns)
[07:24] <korhalf> anyone have an idea on how to possible mount an UIF File?
[07:24] <VenkatS> Gentlemen: Anybody has suggestions to workaround Feisty network slow issue?
[07:24] <HorizonXP> bruenig: should I reset the router?
[07:24] <bense> dangit
[07:24] <bruenig> VenkatS, what network slow issue
[07:24] <bense> i can't figure out how to do this
[07:24] <sauvin> Curley_Sue, you're asking this in a LINUX channel?
[07:25] <bruenig> HorizonXP, I don't know, I have limited interaction with routers, my neighbor's has been unencrypted ever since I have been using wireless
[07:25] <bruenig> HorizonXP, you can try

[07:25] <VenkatS> bruenig: Subversion client as slowed significantly (110 secs now vs 23) compared to Edgy.
[07:26] <dfgas> how do i get X to default to my external monitor on my laptop  (geforce go 6100)
[07:26] <erstazi> VenkatS, I haven't had a problem with svn, what client are you using?
[07:26] <bruenig> VenkatS, what are you trying to get from svn?
[07:26] <HorizonXP> bruenig: Ok, i'll deal with that.. how do I fix his nm-applet?
[07:26] <VenkatS> bruenig: I have doublechecked it several times by just booting via Live CD of Edgy
[07:26] <bruenig> HorizonXP, never used it
[07:26] <bruenig> VenkatS, post hoc fallacy, it doesn't really make sense
[07:26] <HorizonXP> bruenig: ah ok
[07:27] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: It is connecting to our internal dev server to fetch our project via http
[07:27] <uavstrebe> hi guys, anyone know about PCI BIOS bug 81?
[07:27] <HorizonXP> does anyone know how to fix nm-applet? It can no longer configure my interfaces....
[07:27] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: Subversion 1.4.3
[07:27] <erstazi> VenkatS, are you doing this through terminal/CLI?
[07:27] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: Yes. Terminal.
[07:27] <bruenig> well I am on 1.4.4 so I can't really test that
[07:28] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: I have tried 1.4.4 as well. No help.
[07:28] <bruenig> VenkatS, this is not an ubuntu problem really
[07:28] <erstazi> VenkatS, I haven't had a problem with svn so I am not sure of your issue, maybe its your intranet dev server
[07:28] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: Just to make sure I am not messing up anything, I took a stock Feisty Live CD and installed svn 1.4.3
[07:28] <erstazi> VenkatS, why a live CD?
[07:29] <erstazi> VenkatS, LiveCD's are slower than an actual installed OS
[07:29] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: Strange thing is that when svn pauses, I can just do a ping to a internet domain and it resumes quickly
[07:29] <bruenig> VenkatS, I would just get the thing installed and then worry about getting svn going later, you can always compile it yourself
[07:29] <Soldiercayne> Theres no way to install Ubuntu without using CD or floppy ?
[07:29] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: I have been doing this setup since Edgy, we would setup one machine with all the stuff we need and image it,
[07:29] <bruenig> I think this is a bit of computer voodoo, like those who say some bittorrent clients download faster than others
[07:29] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: It is just an upgrade to Feisty and we are experiancing this.
[07:30] <erstazi> bruenig, exactly
[07:30] <codyb9375> Soldiercayne, where are you trying to install it from
[07:30] <NETWizz> Which package do I use to install Java in Fiesty?
[07:30] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: Why live cd? I confirmed the problem on the install first then later double checked with live cd.
[07:30] <Soldiercayne> codyb9375, I have no CD-ROM so..basically I'm trying to install it from Windows XP
[07:30] <erstazi> VenkatS, as I said already, I haven't had a problem with it, maybe the group at #svn can help you
[07:31] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: When I compared Live CD, I also did a Edgy Live CD test so it is apples to apples.
[07:31] <codyb9375> Soldiercayne, there is experimental software called Wubi out there that makes installing Ubuntu very easy you might try that
[07:31] <Soldiercayne> codyb9375, googling Wubi now, thankyou
[07:32] <bense> i see that my updates have a lot of system files
[07:32] <VenkatS> erstazi, bruenig: ok. Let me try with them as well. Thanks for your comments.
[07:32] <bruenig> VenkatS, well if ubuntu had a distributed build script system like some other superior distros, you could check build scripts to see if there are any difference in compile flags, I would seriously just compile the old one if you think that really matters
[07:32] <ttyp> why can't I get my resolution any better than 800x600?
[07:32] <bense> i see that my updates have a lot of system files, like binutils, base-files, cpp, if i update EVERYTHING will it break anything?
[07:32] <VenkatS> bruenig: I just thought compiling a new one would shed some light and tried with 1.4.4
[07:33] <bruenig> compile the old one
[07:33] <VenkatS> bruenig: ok. I will do that. Thanks.
[07:33] <astro76> bense, no it's safe
[07:33] <Hansel> ttyp - you probably have an incorrect vid card setting in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:33] <erstazi> VenkatS, I have on this box 1.4.2
[07:33] <NETWizz> What package do I use to install Java?
[07:33] <bense> astro76: so i can update EVERYTHING and i'm fine?
[07:33] <NETWizz> I want to install Sun Java
[07:33] <sleepster> what's good software to convert CD to ISO
[07:33] <Hansel> sleepster - I think k3b can do that
[07:33] <astro76> bense, indeed
[07:33] <VenkatS> erstazi:  ok. I will go with 1.4.2 first
[07:34] <ttyp> hansel - is it different than any other linux?

[07:34] <pace_t_zulu> NetWizz i think it's something like ubuntu_restricted_extras
[07:34] <bruenig> ubuntu restricted extras is a meta package

[07:34] <bruenig> stupid meta packages
[07:35] <bruenig> someone should fix that
[07:35] <pace_t_zulu> or maybe ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:35] <bruenig> we need package groups, not meta-package hacks
[07:35] <pace_t_zulu> it includes java
[07:35] <sleepster> Hansel: do you know one for Gnome?
[07:35] <pace_t_zulu> the sun distro of it
[07:35] <Hansel> sleepster - not off the top of my head
[07:35] <ttyp> hansel - thanks.  I'll chack that site.
[07:36] <sleepster> k thanks
[07:36] <malocite> how do I see which version of python I have?
[07:36] <erstazi> sleepster, you can run KDE apps on gnome
[07:36] <astro76> sleepster, you can just right click on the disc icon, select copy disk... and then select to copy to file
[07:36] <erstazi> malocite, in terminal type: python --version
[07:37] <erstazi> sleepster, or as astro76 typed (:
[07:37] <sleepster> sweet
[07:37] <sleepster> thanks
[07:37] <sleepster> that works
[07:37] <Parisi_Work> man.
[07:37] <NETWizz> What is a meta package
[07:37] <pace_t_zulu> ubotu
[07:38] <NETWizz> What are Ubuntu REstricted Extras?
[07:38] <Parisi_Work> gotta love campus internet pipe
[07:38] <pace_t_zulu> a meta package is a package that is more like a smart list of packages
[07:38] <astro76> !metapackage
[07:38] <ubotu> A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.
[07:38] <pace_t_zulu> ubuntu restricted extras are proprietary code packages commonly needed
[07:39] <pace_t_zulu> like codecs and java
[07:39] <pace_t_zulu> flash
[07:39] <astro76> ms fonts
[07:39] <bruenig> a meta package is a hack
[07:39] <bruenig> it is a dirty way to group packages
[07:40] <Parisi_Work> anyone know an easy fix to turn the radio on on a broadcom chipset under Ubuntu, under WinXP its as easy a keyboard combination, any tips?
[07:40] <Jstn> I was on youtube, I paused a video, then tried to play an mp3 in vlc, now my sound doesn't work. I've restarted and it hasn't helped.
[07:40] <elmajico> is there any reliable tool to image/restore my ubuntu installation?  i need to make an image, delete my windows and move ubuntu in its place?
[07:40] <Curley_Sue> sauvin: apperantly yes... why do u ask?
[07:40] <Hansel> Parisi_Work iwconfig eth1 <params>  ifconfig eth1 down         ifconfig eth1 up             dhclient eth1
[07:41] <Hansel> assuming its eth1  :P
[07:41] <IdNotFound> Jstn: restarted as in reboot, or close and reopne VLC ?
[07:41] <IdNotFound> *reopen
[07:41] <astro76> elmajico, http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page
[07:41] <Jstn> Reboot
[07:41] <elmajico> astro76: thankyou
[07:42] <IdNotFound> Jstn: sounds like /dev/dsp is being held, but since you rebooted, I'm not sure...
[07:42] <towlie> is there an apt-get package for flash plugin for firefox ?
[07:42] <Parisi_Work> Hansel I believe the wireless card is up and its recognized, its just the radio that is not on, the radio light is off on the external laptop indicator.
[07:42] <sauvin> Curley_Sue, it's just that folks in this channel are rather unlikely to be willing to help with a Windows application.
[07:42] <IdNotFound> Jstn: try "fuser /dev/dsp", see if it outputs anything
[07:42] <Hansel> towlie - yes... about 3 of them iirc
[07:42] <Jstn> No output.
[07:42] <towlie> which one do i need?
[07:42] <Hansel> towlie - pull open synaptic and do a keyword search  :)
[07:42] <Jstn> Shall I sudo it?
[07:42] <sauvin> I just walked back in - the /dev/dsp problem wouldn't by chance be an mplayer problem, would it?
[07:43] <Jstn> sauvin, it's possible, I think I ran mplayer as well.
[07:43] <Jstn> Does mplayer often fuck shit up?
[07:43] <sauvin> How are you determining you're having a problem with /dev/dsp?
[07:43] <Jstn> I haven't yet.
[07:43] <Hansel> Jstn - not any more than any other media player I imagine
[07:43] <IdNotFound> Jstn: I believe there's no need for sudo... All the DSP tricks I know are dependant on output from fuser, sorry :(
[07:43] <sauvin> It doesn't mess stuff up, no, but it apparently has trouble with /dev/dsp, especially if your desktop manager has an active sound systme.
[07:43] <Hansel> Jstn - I personally prefer VLC over any other...
[07:43] <Jstn> Hansel, same here.
[07:44] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[07:44] <sauvin> I strongly prefer mplayer for most things, but sometimes can't use it for exactly that reason. On Fedora Core, the problem abated somewhat when I disabled the desktop's sounds.
[07:44] <sauvin> I've not had ubuntu running long enough yet to know if there's a problem or not.
[07:44] <Jstn> I've checked alsamixer and nothing is muted except for external sound, but I've unmuted that since and it didn't seem to help either.
[07:44] <weston> hey
[07:45] <erstazi> hey weston
[07:45] <sauvin> Are you getting NO SOUND, or are you getting GARBLED sound?
[07:45] <Jstn> no sound
[07:45] <towlie> which package do i install so i can view flash videos in firefox ?
[07:45] <sauvin> Regardless of the application you use?
[07:45] <Jstn> correct
[07:45] <astro76> towlie, flashplugin-nonfree
[07:45] <sauvin> Do you have kmix?
[07:45] <Curley_Sue> sauvin: I thought ubuntu was supposed to provide a full desktop environment, meaning, allowing people as full functionality as it gets - even if it means that one can share work with other os users, even if it is O$ (otherwise, why should ubuntu come with applications which can open,edit,save in M$Office format)
[07:46] <Jstn> I can get it. But I've rather not run dependencies for kde.
[07:46] <Jstn> I'd*
[07:46] <towlie> astro76,  thanks
[07:46] <sauvin> Mmkay, what desktop are you running?
[07:46] <Jstn> fluxbox
[07:46] <Jstn> :)
[07:46] <sauvin> hrm... can't help with that.
[07:46] <xstasi> how bout aumix instead of kmix?
[07:46] <xstasi> :)
[07:46] <Jstn> I have gnome available as well.
[07:46] <sauvin> You said you tried alsamixer?
[07:46] <Jstn> Yea
[07:47] <sauvin> xtasi, you're going where I tried to go.
[07:47] <Hansel> desktop environments:  XFCE, KDE, Gnome.  window managers:  enlightenment, fluxbox, blackbox, *box basically... there is a distince difference
[07:47] <xstasi> i'm actually going afk
[07:47] <xstasi> ttyl :)
[07:47] <sauvin> Grr... have you never gotten sound? What kind of card do you have?
[07:47] <Jstn> I just had sound 15 minutes ago.
[07:48] <Jstn> I was watching a movie in youtube, then I went to play an mp3 in some other player, now no sound.
[07:48] <codyb9375> ! sound | Jstn
[07:48] <ubotu> Jstn: 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
[07:48] <towlie> astro76,  i installed the flash plugin and restarted firefox but it still says i need to upgrade flash when i try to watch a flash video
[07:48] <Jstn> I'm guessing on aumix the left side is mute?
[07:48] <Hansel> Jstn - yup
[07:49] <malocite> how can I remove my present version of python and reinstall an earlier one?
[07:49] <crimsun> Jstn: download http://www.trilug.org/~crimsun/alsa-info.sh and run it.
[07:49] <malocite> i need 2.3

[07:51] <NETWizz> Why is it downloading .exe files
[07:51] <g0dd3ss> hi friendz, someone know stuff about gsynaptics? I am trying to use it but it says i have to set SHMconfig "true" in xorg.conf, but I've done that already :-S
[07:51] <sauvin> Jstn, which flash plugin are you using?
[07:51] <rives> thankyou
[07:51] <crimsun> Jstn: mute both Headphone Jack Sense and Line Jack Sense
[07:52] <Hansel> rives - just FYI unless your card is supported it may be difficult if not impossible to get wireless working.  I am one of about 7 people in the whole world that has it working
[07:52] <astro76> towlie, I mean for the non-working flash video, also do you see it in about:plugins in firefox?
[07:52] <Hansel> doh, he left just in time to miss my witty sarcasm.
[07:52] <Jstn> crimsun, done. shall I try it now?
[07:52] <crimsun> Jstn: yes
[07:52] <towlie> ahh i found the problem by trying to reinstall the flash plugin and viewing details. when it finishes downloading theres an error md5sum mismatch
[07:52] <sauvin> I know my Broadcom wireless card is a disappointment, and I can't swap it out because this is a laptop
[07:52] <Jstn> Got it
[07:52] <Jstn> thanks
[07:53] <Jstn> Nice script, btw.
[07:53] <malocite> how can I remove my present version of python and reinstall an earlier one?  -  I need to install version 2.3
[07:53] <astro76> towlie, ahh right sorry, there's a new package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/i386/flashplugin-nonfree/9.0.48.0.0ubuntu1~7.04.0
[07:54] <astro76> we could use that added to ubotu
[07:54] <crimsun> no
[07:54] <weston> brb
[07:54] <crimsun> please do NOT add that
[07:54] <crimsun> that package is BROKEN
[07:54] <codyb9375> crimsun, based on what?
[07:54] <towlie> astro76, i manually installed it and its working now
[07:55] <sauvin> yes, it's broken. Use the flash plugin from the Adobe site.
[07:55] <towlie> yea thats what i did
[07:55] <Parisi_Work> Hansel I believe the wireless card is up and its recognized, its just the radio that is not on, the radio light is off on the external laptop indicator.
[07:55] <crimsun> codyb9375: because I maintain that package, and the person who uploaded that version forgot to update a file.
[07:55] <sauvin> I've had real trouble with the nonfree plugin and with gnash.
[07:55] <Parisi_Work> Oops, sorry.
[07:55] <astro76> crimsun, thanks good to know

[07:56] <Parisi_Work> RickH i cannot stand that as well.
[07:57] <Curley_Sue> sauvin: now after I've explained myself - am i entitled for an answer?
[07:57] <cyphase> Anyone know if/when PulseAudio is going to become the default sound server in Ubuntu?
[07:57] <crimsun> cyphase: perhaps.
[07:57] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[07:57] <astro76> RickH, if you add gsynaptics, you'll be able to adjust sensitivity
[07:57] <crimsun> cyphase: it's not gutsy material, perhaps gutsy+1
[07:58] <RickH> astro76:  Thanks.
[07:58] <sauvin> Curley_Sue, (1) I don't think we normally support Microsoft applications, even though Linux does have tools for manipulating files generated BY such products, and (2) folks here don't normally provide application-specific support regardless of home platform.
[07:58] <cyphase> but it's definitely going to be in ubuntu eventually
[07:58] <g0dd3ss> hi friendz, someone know stuff about gsynaptics? I am trying to use it but it says i have to set SHMconfig "true" in xorg.conf, but I've done that already :-S
[07:58] <crimsun> cyphase: "going to be"?
[07:58] <weston> does anyone know to install wireless drivers? - extreme noob question
[07:58] <cyphase> crimsun: i know it's in the repos
[07:58] <Hansel> every time you type gsynaptics it looks like gymnastics... maybe I should stop fantasizing about young women with tight bodies so much while IRCing?
[07:58] <crimsun> cyphase: it is in feisty already.  In fact, Edubuntu uses it by default.

[07:59] <Curley_Sue> * sauvin: what do u mean " regardless of home platform"
[07:59] <cyphase> n2diy: probably. you should check openoffice.org, or just try it
[07:59] <g0dd3ss> astro76,  ok 1 sec
[07:59] <blazemonger> since i want to use gnome kde and x4ce
[07:59] <n2diy> cyphase: roger, I should think before I type.
[07:59] <RickH> astro76:  How is it configured once installed?
[07:59] <crdlb> blazemonger, kde-core is very minimal
[07:59] <cyphase> n2diy: no big deal :)
[07:59] <blazemonger> also want the devel stuff
[08:00] <crdlb> kubuntu-desktop includes everything in the default kubuntu install
[08:00] <RickH> Ah.. I found it
[08:00] <RickH> System - Preferences - Touchpad.
[08:00] <astro76> RickH, you need to add the line: Option		"SHMConfig"		"true"
[08:00] <crdlb> blazemonger, neither metapackage included -dev packages
[08:00] <kab00m> thanls bruenig
[08:00] <astro76> RickH, to the touchpad section in xorg.conf
[08:00] <tom_> <kab00m: /home/user/.wine
[08:00] <g0dd3ss> astro76, http://pastebin.com/m2ae64d47
[08:00] <blazemonger> i want to have the devel stuff too
[08:00] <blazemonger> i already did kde-core
[08:01] <crdlb> blazemonger, you'll have to install it manually (apt-get build-dep is your friend)
[08:01] <astro76> g0dd3ss, that looks ok, oh you'll need to restart X
[08:01] <RickH> astro76:  Where is xorg.conf?
[08:01] <astro76> RichiH, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:01] <astro76> sorry RickH ^
[08:01] <blazemonger> never hjeard of build-dep
[08:01] <blazemonger> what's tat do
[08:01] <g0dd3ss> yeah I have, restarted x, and also rebooted everything, a few times
[08:01] <RickH> astro76:  Np.  I just found it when you typed. :)
[08:02] <crdlb> blazemonger, it install the build dependencies for a particular package
[08:02] <g0dd3ss> astro76, yeah I have, restarted x, and also rebooted everything, a few times
[08:02] <crdlb> installs*
[08:03] <blazemonger> interesting
[08:03] <blazemonger> never heard of it
[08:03] <blazemonger> i want to create my own distro :)
[08:04] <blazemonger> but based on LFS
[08:04] <n2diy> cyphase: No OO, or Open_Office channel
[08:04] <astro76> g0dd3ss, I think you need to add the following line to your "ServerLayout" section: 	Inputdevice	"Synaptics Touchpad"
[08:04] <astro76> g0dd3ss, http://pastebin.com/m35f58dad
[08:05] <g0dd3ss> astro76, alright, thanks alot!
[08:06] <weston> well, seems the program wirelessassistant is not showing up on -Applications>add/remove>internet
[08:06] <RickH> astro76:  Do I have to restart Xserver?  When I make that change (Option "SHMConfig" "true") it still doesn't work.
[08:06] <astro76> RickH, yes
[08:06] <Soldiercayne> wow, wubi gets over a thousand downloads aday from SourceForge
[08:06] <RickH> astro76:  Ctrl+Alt+Backspace?  Or reboot?
[08:07] <Smackban> Soldiercayne, did you download it and did it work?
[08:07] <astro76> RickH, ctrl+alt+bspace
[08:07] <RickH> Okay... here goes. :)
[08:07] <Soldiercayne> Smackban, I've downloaded it and it's now downloading ubuntu itself or something..but it gives you a blog search on the homepage and alot of people have been satisfied with it
[08:07] <Soldiercayne> It creates a virtual hard disk in a file on Windows, instead of partioning
[08:07] <Soldiercayne> partitioning*
[08:08] <RickH> astro76:  Finishing download first. :)
[08:08] <sauvin> Soldiercayne, does this mean you actually run ubuntu under Windows?
[08:08] <Smackban> sauvin, yes that is what Wubi does
[08:08] <Soldiercayne> it appears so
[08:08] <Soldiercayne> but it doesn't appear to be...virtual in that sense
[08:08] <sauvin> That's... scary. To what degree?
[08:08] <Soldiercayne> like a VMware machine or VPS
[08:09] <File13> Ubuntu has defeated me :( i think im gonna delete it
[08:09] <Parisi_Work> heh
[08:09] <Smackban> sauvin, you have a dual boot option but it is somehow installed under windows components and works as its own OS i do believe.
[08:10] <sauvin> it's still... scary
[08:10] <ari_stress> hello all, i'm trying to turn off dhcp-server using rcconf, but, it's not listed there? I'm very confused
[08:10] <Smackban> File13, part of the fun in ubuntu/linux is figuring out problems and making things better
[08:10] <boris_> is there any way to make amarok in gnome default music player
[08:10] <Smackban> welcome back RickH how did it go
[08:11] <File13> Yeah well when i fix things they break again lol, that or i can never get an answer. I understand my questions wont be answered right away here or on the forums but after a while i just get frustrated
[08:11] <RickH> Smackban:  It worked.  BTW, don't uncheck the "Enable touchpad" checkbox.  You want to uncheck the second tab's option. :)
[08:11] <mrwho> Anyone tell me is it possible to add a switch to my soundcard
[08:12] <IntuitiveNipple> What kind of switch? Physical press-switch?
[08:12] <g0dd3ss> yayyy, works great now thanks alot astro76
[08:12] <File13> Im quite interested in ubuntu though, i might end up building a cheap system to fool around on it then when i get the hang of it upgrade it
[08:12] <RickH> File13:  I love it.
[08:12] <mrwho> Open volume control
[08:12] <RickH> File13:  I'm a one-month convert.
[08:13] <mrwho> Click tab switch
[08:13] <RickH> File13:  Once you learn about VMware Server, you'll never look back.  Windows 2K/XP/Vista all run inside of Linux.
[08:13] <File13> Well thats what i was trying to do man, but first my wifi worked, another day it didnt. My sound would go out and come back, i dont understand
[08:13] <IntuitiveNipple> mrwho: Don't know what one of them is... Are you on about MIDI ?
[08:13] <RickH> File13:  However, I highly recommend a virtualize-ready processor like Core 2 Duo or Athlon X2.  The virtual sessions run much faster.
[08:14] <File13> Well my laptop is a dual core
[08:14] <RickH> File13:  Then you're ready.
[08:14] <File13> its a presario v3019
[08:14] <Smackban> yea it helps, I run my games on my dual core Ubuntu computer
[08:14] <mrwho> Nipple: My microphone doesn't work
[08:14] <RickH> File13:  I have an older notebook, a Sony VAIO with a 1.6 GHz P4-M.  No virtualization support, and it's notably slower.
[08:14] <blazemonger> hell all i have is a p4 1.4 ghz
[08:15] <mrwho> I don't think I have line in
[08:15] <tom_> <RickH: What are the down stream update considerations? Admin nightmare?
[08:15] <RickH> mrwho:  Install ALSA Mixer.
[08:15] <File13> Well for some things i think id need an actual XP partiton for instead of virtualizing it
[08:15] <RickH> tom_:  For what?
[08:15] <Smackban> File13, like what?
[08:15] <RickH> File13:  I'm curious for what also.  You can read physical hard drives from VMware.
[08:16] <tom_> The VMware considerations.
[08:16] <File13> well when im traveling, i use a program called PdaNet to teather my treo 700w to my pc to give it my broadband access
[08:16] <RickH> tom_:  None that I'm aware of.  The virtual machines are created with server.  Once you get them setup you can uninstall server and install player.
[08:16] <mrwho> Rick do I have to mod my audio is alsa to recieve input from a mic?
[08:16] <RickH> mrwho:  The problems I had with my mic were because the mixer channel was muted.  Once I got a good visualization of the channels it fixed it.
[08:17] <File13> it basically makes my treo a modem for my laptop
[08:17] <RickH> mrwho:  It just took flipping the levers up/down to see if it made a difference.
[08:17] <mrwho> define channels
[08:17] <File13> and i am not aware of any linux alternative
[08:17] <RickH> mrwho:  I used Audacity to record what I was speaking.
[08:17] <mrwho> Yeah
[08:17] <File13> because im all for wanting to switch
[08:17] <File13> i HATE XP
[08:17] <RickH> mrwho:  Line in.  Capture.  Mic front.   Mic back.  Eetc.
[08:17] <RickH> etc.
[08:17] <mrwho> I di that in my audio card but nothing
[08:17] <File13> i am an OSX user first and for most
[08:17] <mrwho> Thats what I meant by switch
[08:17] <Smackban> File13, good for you
[08:17] <File13> but on my other laptop id like to run Ubuntu
[08:17] <IntuitiveNipple> mrwho: What sound hardware device and codec do you have? (output from  cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec )
[08:17] <RickH> File13:   You can install OSX in Linux, although it's illegal.
[08:18] <File13> Hah
[08:18] <mrwho> Audigy 4 by creative labs
[08:18] <File13> Well ideally i would like to have my alternative laptop fully ubuntu formmated
[08:18] <File13> But in reality that one thing is holding me back
[08:18] <File13> the teathering of my phone for the internet
[08:18] <RickH> "teathering"?
[08:18] <IntuitiveNipple> mrwho: Are you using Feisty 32-bit or 64-bit?
[08:19] <MajorPayne> I put Ubuntu on my MacBook.
[08:19] <mrwho> Nipple it gave me nothing
[08:19] <Smackban> File13, if your willing to give time you could fix it to work with the modem softare/connection
[08:19] <IntuitiveNipple> mrwho: Try reading this if you haven't already: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=334215
[08:19] <Truman_> Can someone help me out really quick?  I know that I have to do something to my source list in order to apt-get 945resolution, but I don't remember what
[08:19] <mrwho> Nothing sure
[08:20] <r0b-> is there a way to recover /bin ?
[08:20] <File13> I googled around for it and didnt see anything reguarding the windows mobile version (my 700w) ubuntu has native support of the 700p (the palm version)
[08:20] <erstazi> !iptables
[08:20] <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).
[08:21] <kab00m> how can i make hidden directories visible to gnome?
[08:21] <MajorPayne> rob: What do you mean recover /bin?
[08:21] <astro76> kab00m, ctrl+H in the file manager
[08:21] <ziroday> kab00m: press ctrl+h
[08:21] <r0b-> well my idiotic friend deleted it
[08:21] <r0b-> i need it back
[08:21] <mrwho> nipple:  0 [Audigy2        ] : Audigy2 - Audigy 4 [SB0610]

[08:21] <r0b-> can the CD recover it?
[08:21] <kab00m> thanks guys!
[08:21] <mrwho> Sorry about the paste
[08:22] <Frogzoo> Truman_: synaptic -> settings -> repositories -> universe/multiverse - then reload
[08:22] <astro76> r0b-, sure, it's called a re-install :/
[08:22] <Truman_> Frogzoo:  thanks
[08:22] <Frogzoo> r0b-: reinstall
[08:22] <MajorPayne> r0b-: Hard to say.  Don't give your friend sudo.
[08:22] <r0b-> NOOOOOOOO!
[08:22] <r0b-> i dont want to redo it
[08:22] <r0b-> :(
[08:22] <IntuitiveNipple> mrwho: If you haven't already, I think it is worth following the procedure on that web-page in the forums where at least 2 people solved their Microphone problems
[08:22] <Frogzoo> r0b-: don't give your friends root
[08:23] <r0b-> he guessed the pas
[08:23] <Smackban> make a better password then
[08:23] <MajorPayne> r0b-: Don't make easy to guess passwords :_P
[08:23] <r0b-> is there an easier way?
[08:23] <Ax3> help with pidgin!!! http://rafb.net/p/f9KEH790.html
[08:23] <mrwho> Thanks nipple I will
[08:23] <Ax3> pretty please <3
[08:23] <mrwho> Peace
[08:23] <astro76> r0b-, we'd tell you if there was...
[08:23] <MajorPayne> r0b-: If you remove something with rm it is gone.
[08:23] <File13> So how many of you use ubuntu on your system w/o having any sort of dual boot
[08:23] <untung__> hello
[08:23] <File13> Ubuntu being your main OS
[08:24] <untung__> what is the hardware requirement for ubuntu 7.04?
[08:24] <MajorPayne> File13: I have 3 Ubuntu systems.  No dual boot.
[08:24] <Truman_> Frogzoo: I don't seem to have a universe/multiverse option in "repositories"
[08:24] <fyrestrtr> I have ubuntu on three machines as main os.
[08:24] <n2diy> File13: Me, for four years.
[08:24] <File13> Damn
[08:24] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: are you on fiesty?
[08:24] <IntuitiveNipple> r0b-: You might get something semi-stable by booting from the LiveCD, and then copying the contents of the Live environment's /bin/ directory to the broken one (it will likely be mounted as /media/disk/ )
[08:24] <File13> Do you update when the newest version comes out? Cuz i was talking to a dude a while back that  said he hasnt upgraded in a while and i didnt understand that
[08:24] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, indeed :)
[08:24] <Smackban> untung_: you need 256mb of RAM to run the live cd and i think 6GB of file space to install
[08:25] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: pidgin is available
[08:25] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, pidgin isn't in the repo so... trying to install from source
[08:25] <Frogzoo> Truman_: community
[08:25] <n2diy> File13: Who are you asking?
[08:25] <File13> Anyone of you who said they had had ubuntu for a while
[08:25] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, it is? i tried 'apt-get install pidgin' didn't work
[08:25] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: it is, enable fiesty-updates
[08:25] <r0b-> will it fix it?
[08:25] <MajorPayne> File13: *I* keep my system up to date.
[08:25] <r0b-> or no?
[08:25] <MajorPayne> File13: But you don't have to upgrade right away.
[08:25] <varun_> how to I run .jar files?
[08:26] <Truman_> Frogzoo: That's odd; it's checked but I don't get anything with apt-get install 945resolution
[08:26] <Smackban> rOb, tis worth a try
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> pidgin-plugin-pack - 30 useful plugins for pidgin
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> pidgin - Pidgin is an instant messaging program for Windows, Linux, BSD, and other Unixes.
[08:26] <Truman_> Frogzoo: Even after I refresh
[08:26] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: It depends what the updates are. I usually check them out, especially kernel updates. Application and library updates aren't so drastic so I generally let them go ahaed
[08:26] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, ok thank you
[08:26] <Frogzoo> Truman_: oh 945 would be restricted, or proprietary - or maybe it's a different repo entirely
[08:26] <File13> When you updgrade to the newest version, do you have to do any sort of backup or any of that, or can you just get it and have all your personal data entact
[08:26] <erstazi> Rationally, I run the command: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 9000 -j ACCEPT (for slimserver) and still cannot connect to slimserver (besides http://127.0.0.1:9000)
[08:26] <n2diy> File13: Nope, I stay with long term support, LTS, and and LSB, a certified linux supporc base.
[08:26] <astro76> r0b-, it won't fix it by any means, but it'll probably make the system bootable and some things work
[08:26] <varun_> is it just java -jar filename.jar?
[08:26] <Truman_> Frogzoo: Multiverse is enabled, too.. shouldn't that be it?
[08:26] <MajorPayne> File13: You should alwas back your data up when upgrading your OS.
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> File13: depends, if you are current-1, then no you don't need to do backups (but it never hurts).
[08:27] <Frogzoo> Truman_: 915resolution perhaps ?
[08:27] <Frogzoo> Truman_: or xserver-xorg-video-intel ?
[08:27] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: If you're planning on upgrading frequently it is a good idea to set up the disk so /home/ is on a separate partition
[08:27] <fyrestrtr> !info 915resolution
[08:27] <ubotu> 915resolution: resolution modification tool for Intel graphic chipset. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.5.2-10ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 14 kB, installed size 124 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64)
[08:27] <Frogzoo> Truman_: otherwise, I don't know
[08:27] <Truman_> Frogzoo: Ah, I'll take a look around
[08:27] <Truman_> !info 945resolution
[08:27] <ubotu> Package 945resolution does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:28] <Truman_> I know I got this to work last time I stuck ubuntu on this laptop :\
[08:28] <NETWizz> I like how fast I can get Ubuntu to do anything
[08:28] <File13> Is /home/ where id would keep my files/music/photos/etc?
[08:28] <johnybot> File13:
[08:28] <johnybot> yes
[08:28] <Frogzoo> r0b-: if /bin is deleted, you need to reinstall, nothing less
[08:28] <NETWizz> I installed google earth, skype, vlc, dvd playback, windows fonts, windows codecs, and other codes all within 15 minutes
[08:28] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: yes
[08:29] <Frogzoo> r0b-: /bin or /usr/bin ?
[08:29] <MajorPayne> File13: For the most part.  Unless you have more partitions/disks that you have mounted somewhere else.
[08:29] <File13> Ok, cuz i didnt see any sort of files/photos/music folders by default
[08:29] <fyrestrtr> on my workstation, /home is on its own separate 80 gb disk
[08:29] <File13> so i didnt know where i should have put them by default
[08:29] <johnybot> File13: /home/USERMANE/ more presicely
[08:29] <fyrestrtr> File13: you should *always* put stuff in /home
[08:29] <Smackban> File13, you would just make a folder to place them in
[08:30] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Your home directory (/home/*username*/ ) is where everything is expected to be
[08:30] <johnybot> home is for personal stuff
[08:30] <File13> Ok
[08:30] <johnybot> since linux is multiuser by design
[08:30] <File13> now when i reformat then
[08:30] <File13> how do i set  this /home/ director seperate
[08:30] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: All user's get a directory off /home/ - so having /home/ in its own partition makes it easy to isolate it from general system updates
[08:30] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: During partitioning, choose Manual Partition
[08:31] <leo> hello everyone, i'm having trouble getting my subwoofer to work on a laptop, can someone help me?
[08:31] <n2diy> File13: create a seperate partition for /home.
[08:31] <blazemonger> how do i get the 3d chess to work on the chess game thjat comes with ubuntu
[08:31] <Ashfire908> ubuntu won't mount the cdrom dirve but i know i put a cdrom in. how do i get it to mount
[08:31] <File13> I was following this guide to dual boot to begin with
[08:31] <blazemonger> another thig is why cant gnuchess be installed without removing gnome-games
[08:31] <File13> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=fc3&q=dual+booting+xp+and+ubuntu+7.04&btnG=Search
[08:31] <File13> oops
[08:31] <File13> this one
[08:31] <File13> http://www.howtoforge.com/dual_boot_windows_xp_vista_ubuntu_feisty
[08:31] <Soldiercayne> f
[08:32] <leo> i dont get an lfe slider in kmix
[08:32] <File13> And it tells me to make the swap then the ext3
[08:32] <File13> would i then make another?
[08:32] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Then for best flexibility create: #1 256MB /boot, #2 10GB /root, #3 swap (RAM_size + 256MB), #4 /home (the remainder)
[08:32] <johnybot> File13:  yes
[08:32] <fyrestrtr> IntuitiveNipple: there is no sense to create such a large /boot
[08:32] <AstuteCat> I have an odd firefox problem, not sure how to solve it -- it won't run unless I run it with -P <profilename> or -ProfileManager and select a profile. Otherwise it does nothing, no errors at all, just nothing.
[08:32] <fyrestrtr> AstuteCat: sounds like your default profile directory is fubar
[08:33] <IntuitiveNipple> fyrestrtr: There is if you want flexibility to install different kernels a few hundred MB's is nothing these days
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> IntuitiveNipple: and unless your RAM is below 512, you don't need a giant swap.
[08:33] <AstuteCat> fyrestrtr, i've tried re-installing it, that hasn't helped, what should I do to fix it?
[08:33] <Smackban> ! mount | Ashfire908
[08:33] <ubotu> Ashfire908: 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
[08:33] <File13> what is the /root/ directory for, and why give it so much space
[08:33] <astro76> File13, by /root he means /
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> AstuteCat: reinstalling what?
[08:33] <Smackban> Swap partitions are normally 1 and half of your installed RAM
[08:33] <AstuteCat> fyrestrtr, firefox
[08:34] <astro76> File13, it's everything else besides what you've made separately
[08:34] <fyrestrtr> AstuteCat: not sure to be honest, never faced your particular problem in *linux* in Windows, a reinstall fixes stuff.
[08:34] <johnybot> AstuteCat: try deleting the .firefox directory in your home folder
[08:34] <IntuitiveNipple> fyrestrtr: swap should be RAM_size + a bit, if you want to be able to hibernate, because swap will contain the resume image + maintain paged-out memory
[08:34] <File13> so id be making 4 partitons?
[08:34] <towlie>  is there a reason why my feisty install,even with all of the updates is kinda far behind in the kernel version ? the latest according to kernel.org is 2.6.22.1 and uname shows that i have 2.6.20-15
[08:34] <Lucifer_bed> er, how do I get ubuntu to see this really old hard drive I Just plugged in?
[08:34] <arooni> hey folks
[08:34] <RickH> I had an odd NTFS-3G problem the other day.  It kept my partition from being mountable until I ran a boot-time check disk from windows.
[08:34] <towlie> Lucifer_bed, ifits ide it should just be detected
[08:34] <johnybot> Lucifer_bed: check it has correct jumper settings and it is found in bios
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> IntuitiveNipple: only if you are on a laptop. On desktops there is no need unless you are running something (like Oracle) that requires gobs of swap.
[08:35] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: If you want maximum flexibility for the future, its best to start early :)
[08:35] <Lucifer_bed> its ide all right, an old maxtor
[08:35] <astro76> towlie, linux distributions get security and critical updates, but no new versions until the new release, for Ubuntu every 6 months
[08:35] <towlie> RickH, ive got the same problem but i dont have a windows install to do a chkdsk with
[08:35] <AstuteCat> johnybot: tried that, didn't seem to help.
[08:35] <Lucifer_bed> not sure if bios is finding it :(
[08:35] <blazemonger> what was that one deal with installing all the dev tools needed for KDE/
[08:35] <arooni> if i am having trouble getting GRUB to load... will booting from a usb flash (with contents of the live cd) help me to right this?
[08:35] <astro76> towlie, the only exception in Ubuntu is Firefox
[08:35] <RickH> towlie:  Install VMware server and install Windows?  That's how I fixed it. :)
[08:35] <blazemonger> should kubuntu-desktop be installed too?
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> IntuitiveNipple: I would rather separate /var and /tmp than have 10 gb for /
[08:35] <Lucifer_bed> I'll reboot and try again (in bios)
[08:35] <towlie> yea maybe....
[08:35] <blazemonger> toh ave all the kde stuff available
[08:35] <johnybot> AstuteCat: have you tryed removing it with the purge option
[08:35] <IntuitiveNipple> fyrestrtr: Many desktop users use hibernate; its not just laptop users. And the smaller the RAM in the PC, the more important to have a swap partition size that is RAM + a good percentage
[08:36] <File13> Ive deleted and redone partitons a few times, im afraid im screwing with the integrity of my HDD :-\
[08:36] <Smackban> IntuitiveNipple, fyrestrtr: isnt Swap size normally 1.5 * RAM?
[08:36] <Tixer2> I keep getting I/O errors whenever I try to write to one of my drives
[08:36] <Tixer2> cp: cannot create regular file `/media/disk/www/squid.conf': Input/output error
[08:36] <astro76> File13, it's harmless
[08:36] <RickH> File13:  Nope.  You can do that all day.  Provided you use mature tools to do it.
[08:36] <fyrestrtr> Smackban: that's back from the days when 512 RAM was 'wow'
[08:36] <AstuteCat> johnybot: if I try removing it, I get a dependancy thing come up and it says it will remove ubuntu-desktop -- that seemed a little rash so I went for 'reinstallation'
[08:36] <fyrestrtr> Smackban: I have run a system without swap.
[08:36] <File13> Ok well if i boot
[08:36] <File13> Ok, im gonna try installing it right now then
[08:37] <IntuitiveNipple> Smackban: It depends on what you want it for, but certainly if you want to hibernate *and* the kernel is using the swap-file you need a good margin to guarantee you'll be able to hibernate in all circumstances
[08:37] <File13> With the 4 partitons
[08:37] <Smackban> fyrestrtr, but you want swap to hibernate also
[08:37] <fyrestrtr> AstuteCat: ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package, removing it doesn't really do anything.
[08:37] <asc> I have a damaged partition table, and need a way to restore it while booted from the livecd. Can anybody recommend a program?
[08:37] <AstuteCat> fyrestrtr: oh, that's ok then
[08:37] <leo> does anybody know how to get the subwoofer on a dell inspiron 9400 working? i found a patch but i do not know how to apply it
[08:37] <fyrestrtr> Smackban: yes, but as I mentioned before -- I don't hibernate my desktop, so I don't really need it.
[08:37] <johnybot> AstuteCat:  im gonna have to say no idea, though you could try installing swiftfox
[08:37] <astro76> Smackban, with more than 512MB ram you can decrease it, with 1GB or more you don't really need it in most cases. Yeah except for hibernation you need swap=ramsize
[08:37] <AstuteCat> i'll have a play around, see if I can get it to work
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> Smackban: although some applications (my experience was with Oracle) *require* swap, and require specific amount of it -- otherwise, in Oracle's case, the installer won't even start.
[08:38] <blazemonger> i never use hibernate
[08:38] <blazemonger> heh
[08:38] <Tixer2> Why can't I write to one of my HDDs, without getting IO errors?
[08:38] <File13> I hibernate my laptop when i put it in my backpack inbetween classes so whatever im gonna need to do for this hibernation ill need to know
[08:38] <Tixer2> cp: cannot create regular file `/media/disk/www/squid.conf': Input/output error
[08:38] <weston> hmmm, for some reason when I try to play guild wars my screen freezes right before startup
[08:38] <johnybot> Tixer2: is the HDD mounted?
[08:38] <File13> Cuz this is gonna be my school laptop for taking notes in lecture and stuff
[08:38] <Tixer2> yes
[08:38] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: How much RAM does the laptop have now, and are you likely to add more in the future?
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> Tixer2: time to dust off the backups and get yourself a new disk.
[08:38] <weston> could it be graphic driver related?
[08:38] <Smackban> weston, what are you using to play it?
[08:39] <File13> 1gb of ram, and no i dont really plan on adding more
[08:39] <astro76> File13, then you definitely need swap size = ram size
[08:39] <weston> Wine
[08:39] <RickH> How do I find out what version of NTFS-3G I have?
[08:39] <Tixer2> fyrestrtr: is it possible it's just a mount error?
[08:39] <weston> Smackban, Wine
[08:39] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: If you are, for the sake of a couple GB, it is worth making the swap partition the correct size now and having some unused, than having the hassle later of creating a larger one
[08:39] <Tixer2> can I verify by smart what the problem is?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Tixer2: no, that's a write error.
[08:39] <Frogzoo> RickH: dpkg -l ntfs-3g ?
[08:39] <Smackban> weston, do you have your graphics driver updated in linux?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Tixer2: smart is not very smart.
[08:39] <RickH> Frogzoo:  I'll give it a try
[08:39] <astro76> File13, or more accurately, swap size >= ram size
[08:39] <weston> not a clue
[08:40] <weston> I just started Ubuntu 3 days ago
[08:40] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: I'd set it up to 1.5GB then, purely for the nice round number
[08:40] <spartanz> is there a way in text based mode of linux that i can get a text file in my remote server with ssh enabled in it? i know i can do it using wincp in windows what about in linux text based mode,how do i do it?
[08:40] <Hexi> weston, i have that same problem when i have sound enabled in winecfg, then when i disable the sound driver (leave everything unchecked) it works, albeit without sound... haven't solved that one yet, i think it's because i've yet to figure out how to get alsa to play nicely with my M-Audio card
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> Tixer2: you could give a go, it couldn't hurt. smartmontools I think it is.
[08:40] <File13> I was told to make the swap about 1.5x your ram size yesterday
[08:40] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Correct
[08:40] <weston> strange....
[08:40] <File13> so 1.5gb yeah
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> spartanz: scp somefile.txt user@otherserver:/some/path/on/other/server
[08:40] <File13> ok, and what was the 10gb for root for?
[08:40] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Yeah... you're getting the hang of this well :)
[08:40] <RickH> WOW!  The Ubuntu version is 1.3x, the current version is 1.7x
[08:40] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: All the programs :)
[08:40] <johnybot> File13: for programs and system use
[08:41] <File13> I learn fast once i know what the hells going on, right now im totally in the dark though lol
[08:41] <File13> ok
[08:41] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: I know the feeling!
[08:41] <spartanz> ok ill try that fyrestrtr
[08:41] <File13> Well wouldnt the programs go in my home folder or something?
[08:41] <astro76> File13, I wouldn't make it more than 1GB because IMO it's too much if not for hibernation, but hey everyone has a right to their opinion ;)
[08:41] <File13> cuz what if i install more than 10gb of programs?
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> File13: no, programs go in various locations, but not your home folder
[08:41] <astro76> File13, plus think how poorly the system would perform if it were regularly swapping more than even 512 MB to disk
[08:41] <AstuteCat> ok, that is odd .... i've removed firefox ("completely removed", through synaptic) and re-installed, and it had popped up a notification saying that my browser needs to be restarted, and that I should close my browser now?
[08:41] <AstuteCat> it's .... not even running :S
[08:41] <johnybot> file13: if you want to get an overview of the disksystem install and run filelight
[08:42] <xstasi> AstuteCat, you never know
[08:42] <xstasi> ps axuw | grep firefox
[08:42] <xstasi> :p
[08:42] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Unlike Windows, it'll take a lot to go over 10GB in most cases but if you want more, then go for it
[08:42] <leo> does anybody know how can i get an lfe slider to show up in kmix?
[08:42] <johnybot> AstuteCat: run system moniter in the admin panel and check if firefox is running
[08:42] <File13> Ok...
[08:42] <File13> so what were the other two partitions then
[08:42] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: I use my laptop for Linux kernel development and have tons of large programs on it, and the / on it is about 12GB
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> File13: they are not partitions, they are mount points.
[08:43] <AstuteCat> firefox-bin was
[08:43] <xstasi> omg
[08:43] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: But my /home is about 160GB !
[08:43] <xstasi> that system monitor
[08:43] <xstasi> "kinda" reminds me of taskmgr.exe...
[08:43] <subtledecision> hey
[08:43] <Tixer2> how do I run smartmontools?
[08:43] <subtledecision> lol  eww taskmgr?
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> Tixer2: man smartctl
[08:43] <towlie> ubuntu is a great distro. probably the best
[08:43] <File13> hello?
[08:43] <File13> ok
[08:43] <File13> nvm
[08:43] <johnybot> xstasi: CLI scares me
[08:43] <cam1223> anyone know about defragmenting?
[08:43] <subtledecision> agree at towlie
[08:43] <File13> My past few things didnt show up
[08:43] <xstasi> johnybot, why?
[08:44] <File13> Ok...so the home directory is for files/music/pictures?
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> towlie: yes, debian is quite the stable platform.
[08:44] <johnybot> xstasi: haha because i grew up on windows :P
[08:44] <xstasi> File13, is for your data
[08:44] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Then for best flexibility create: #1 256MB /boot, #2 10GB /root, #3 swap (RAM_size * 1.5), #4 /home (the remainder)
[08:44] <xstasi> johnybot, me too
[08:44] <towlie> subtledecision, this is coming from someone who's main computer is a mac... id say after os x ubuntu is the 2nd best o.s.
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> File13: yes. Your personal stuff.
[08:44] <NETWizz> I have come to an apifany
[08:44] <xstasi> since i was 8
[08:44] <xstasi> til when i was 13, in 2001
[08:44] <NETWizz> Ubuntu is easier than Windows
[08:44] <xstasi> then i switched to debian
[08:44] <xstasi> :p
[08:44] <NETWizz> Serriously
[08:44] <subtledecision> lol, <---xp user
[08:44] <Smackban> eww xp
[08:44] <NETWizz> I wanted to make sure I could zip and unzip and unrar stuff
[08:45] <Frogzoo> cam1223: on linux there is no defragging
[08:45] <subtledecision> xp is better than os x
[08:45] <subtledecision> lol
[08:45] <NETWizz> I found the package names are zip, unzip, rar, unrar
[08:45] <File13> What is the /boot/ for?
[08:45] <cam1223> lol @ frogzoo
[08:45] <xstasi> subtledecision, OS/2 is better than OSX
[08:45] <fyrestrtr> NETWizz: epiphany :P
[08:45] <Hexi> weston's question reminded me of my owh... has anyone had any luck getting sound to work with Wine (using 0.9.41) and Ubuntu Feisty with an M-Audio Audiophile 2496 soundcard?  I've tried multiple different apps with no luck, and even in winecfg it gives long delays with clicking sounds when selecting the Audio tab
[08:45] <NETWizz> I typed sudo apt-get install zip, unzip, rar, unrar
[08:45] <AstuteCat> woo, it works again
[08:45] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: The kernel images
[08:45] <AstuteCat> :)
[08:45] <johnybot> haha i had XP on my desktop for my tv tuner but now ubuntu recognizes my tv tuner so i havent used my desktop in weeks
[08:45] <NETWizz> already had zip support built in
[08:45] <NETWizz> now rar support is built in
[08:45] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: And the grub loader
[08:45] <NETWizz> gosh that was easy
[08:45] <subtledecision> lol  at xstasi
[08:45] <File13> Ok...
[08:45] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, enabled feisty updates in 'sources' and pidgin still doesn't come up? suggestions?
[08:45] <File13> well im gonna boot up the installer here and start with making these points, and if i have some questions ill ask
[08:45] <xstasi> subtledecision, let's say this: apart from Solaris, everything is better than OSX.
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: did you forget to sudo apt-get update ?
[08:46] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Not strictly necessary but 'nice' since it is a read-only file-system
[08:46] <cam1223> well i have a fat32 drive i need to defrag
[08:46] <spartanz> fyrestrtr, it will tell me no such file/directory and i know that that file is in my home directory
[08:46] <AstuteCat> thanks for the help
[08:46] <subtledecision> never used solaris so its ok
[08:46] <leo> NETWizz, but the terminal is scary! lol
[08:46] <n2diy>  NETWizz, apt-get doesn't play with those files.
[08:46] <Frogzoo> cam1223: ?
[08:46] <subtledecision> I need to make a file server for my apartment
[08:46] <spartanz> scp isnt working
[08:46] <xstasi> subtledecision, never used? don't even think to do it.
[08:46] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, yup! E: Couldn't find package pidgin
[08:46] <Hexi> i actually like solaris... but in a server role not desktop/workstation
[08:46] <subtledecision> whys that?
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: pastebin your source.list
[08:47] <xstasi> subtledecision, try out and discover
[08:47] <xstasi> :p
[08:47] <Ax3> sure one moment :)
[08:47] <johnybot> !pastebin
[08:47] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:47] <xstasi> braindead environment, braindead tools, braindead standards, braindead operating system
[08:47] <xstasi> when i worked with solaris on enterprise systems, i really missed MSDOS 6.0
[08:47] <Hexi> heh, it's just geared for business, not pleasure, it's good for what it's for
[08:47] <xstasi> but, i don't want to start a flame or something
[08:47] <xstasi> so i'll shut the fsck up :)
[08:47] <subtledecision> I miss my windows 3.11
[08:47] <cam1223> Frogzoo i have a FAT drive and a full ext3 i do need to defrag, i have the program but idk how to use it
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> xstasi: there is a solaris theme for ubuntu if you yearn for days gone by.
[08:47] <tom_> <Hexi: There are some general audio fine tunings. Google ubuntu audio tuning
[08:47] <Smackban> dude Windows on floppys ruled the era
[08:47] <leo> i have this laptop w/ a subwoofer built in... it used to work and when i updated alsa it stopped working... any help?
[08:48] <xstasi> fyrestrtr, i barely know solaris' gui
[08:48] <subtledecision> lol smokeban
[08:48] <subtledecision> smack**
[08:48] <johnybot> leo: wait, hahah they will fix eventually
[08:48] <Hexi> tom, thanks, i'll check those results
[08:48] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: If you want some idea of how fancy you can get with partitioning, see this http://pw1.netcom.com/~kmself/Linux/FAQs/partition.html
[08:48] <johnybot> leo: post a bug
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> xstasi: I *think* its just gnome with pretty branding. There is a theme for it at ubuntu-themes.org
[08:48] <Frogzoo> cam1223: the ext3 doesn't need defragging (unless you've messed default settings) - fat, I'd use windows to defrag tbh though there's likely an open source tool
[08:48] <n2diy> I heard they just upgraded Windows?
[08:48] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, http://rafb.net/p/lvhsCR11.html
[08:48] <leo> johnybot, i found a .patch file but i have no ide what to do w/ it
[08:48] <harmattan> exit
[08:48] <xstasi> fyrestrtr, nah, that's the new blahblah solaris next generation bla bla desktop
[08:48] <subtledecision> lol, they updated windows?
[08:48] <johnybot> leo: me neither thats why i said wait :P
[08:48] <xstasi> the original is CDE
[08:49] <xstasi> and man.. i'd rather run a ncurses wm than that
[08:49] <leo> it's bug #80199
[08:49] <johnybot> leo: my sound didnt work for 2 weeks until the next kernel update
[08:49] <n2diy> Yep, no it is Alta La Vista Baby
[08:49] <n2diy> now it is Asta la Vista
[08:50] <subtledecision> vista is a joke atm, although I do like the ram useage...good idea, but needs improvement
[08:50] <Smackban> Vista is about the most crap loaded, slowest OS I have ever used
[08:50] <subtledecision> get more ram
[08:50] <subtledecision> lol
[08:50] <xstasi> Smackban, again, you haven't run solaris
[08:50] <xstasi> haha
[08:50] <leo> vista lasted some 10 min in my new laptop
[08:50] <Smackban> 2gb not enoguh?
[08:50] <n2diy> I shouldn't try to multtask!
[08:50] <cam1223> Frogzoo: yes there is an open source tool. its command line and i dont know how to work it. ext3 fragments when it gets full, my system is at 98%
[08:50] <johnybot> Vista wouldnt let me use firefox and anything else without crawling
[08:50] <arooni> help!
[08:50] <subtledecision> 2g on vista isnt enough
[08:50] <subtledecision> lol
[08:50] <Smackban> my point exactly
[08:51] <johnybot> arooni: ok
[08:51] <leo> lol
[08:51] <subtledecision> back to the almight ubuntu
[08:51] <subtledecision> heh
[08:51] <bcbooter> lmao, anyone know how to get the drive icons off my desktop? besides unmounting them
[08:51] <arooni> heh
[08:51] <File13> my other thought is making all these partitions i have a fairly small laptop HDD
[08:51] <File13> lol
[08:51] <Hexi> solaris... slow? surely you haven't administered it on an e15k then
[08:51] <Kris07> After downloading Ubuntu Ultimate, how would I go about writing it to a disk?
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> Ax3: http://download.ubuntu.pl/_Feisty_Fawn/pidgin/pidgin_2.0.0-1_i386.deb and http://www.kalpiknigam.com/blog/uploads/purple-plugin-pack_1.0-1_i386.deb
[08:51] <xstasi> Hexi, i didn't :)
[08:51] <astro76> File13, how big?
[08:51] <Ax3> fyrestrtr, thanks!
[08:51] <n2diy> bcboote, why do you want to do that, trying to set up a kiosk?
[08:51] <File13> 64gb roughly
[08:51] <arooni> i basically cant get ubuntu or grub to work so i tried to make a live cd... but my cd rom driver isnt recognizerd in bios.... so i'm trying to make a USB drive bootable thing so i was following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476302 ...... but it doesnt work
[08:51] <arooni> ideas?
[08:52] <xstasi> but on such computers, every os would be fast i guess
[08:52] <Hexi> well imo, solaris on sparc is pretty decent for a server.... but i've never been a fan of the x86 version
[08:52] <johnybot> File13:  mines 40 and i have tons of space for movies and music
[08:52] <subtledecision> is the ubuntu server any good
[08:52] <subtledecision> ?
[08:52] <xstasi> subtledecision, imho, NO
[08:52] <MajorPayne> johnybot: When it comes to movies 40 GB isn't very much.
[08:52] <xstasi> want a desktop? run ubuntu
[08:52] <File13> Ok im at the prpare partitions window, id hate to do this but could someone walk me through making the 4-5 partitions i need, i dont wanna mess this up
[08:52] <bcbooter> n2diy, because i like a clean desktop ; )
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> subtledecision: compared to what?
[08:52] <xstasi> want a server? run debian
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> File13: you don't need 4 or 5.
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> File13: you need two
[08:53] <subtledecision> easy to set-up and run for n00b nix user?
[08:53] <johnybot> haha i was being a bit sarcastic but yah get a cheap external harddrive
[08:53] <File13> this is throwing off everything!!! lol
[08:53] <xstasi> afk
[08:53] <File13> i was told to put the /home/ on a differnt one for upgrade compatability, etc
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> File13: one root (/) and one /home. Split your disk 70/40 the 40% is / and 70% is /home
[08:53] <Smackban> johnybot, dont confuse him he is still learning
[08:53] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: To make it easier, do /join #TJ
[08:53] <File13> "Then for best flexibility create: #1 256MB /boot, #2 10GB /root, #3 swap (RAM_size * 1.5), #4 /home (the remainder)"
[08:53] <subtledecision> compared to anything really
[08:53] <Kris07> After downloading Ubuntu Ultimate, how would I go about writing it to a disk?
[08:53] <MajorPayne> subtledecision: The Ubuntu server is LAMP out of the box.
[08:53] <n2diy> bcboote, ok, kiosk stuff might help you then? Kiosk ops don't like folks messing with there HDs.
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> File13: you really don't need that at this stage, it is overkill for your application.
[08:54] <astro76> File13, you need hibernation, so maybe 1GB swap, 10-12GB /, and the rest /home
[08:54] <nj786> how do you open .exe files?
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> nj786: with wine
[08:54] <johnybot> nj786: hahahaha
[08:54] <subtledecision> in windows...lol
[08:54] <Hexi> my personal preference is ubuntu for workstation, openbsd for firewall, debian for lamp server (freebsd isnt bad either), and solaris for DB and file (that's just because I have sparc hardware and array that work perfect with it)
[08:54] <Smackban> nj786, you cannot in Ubuntu unless you use a compatibility layer suck as WINE
[08:54] <arooni> i basically cant get ubuntu or grub to work so i tried to make a live cd... but my cd rom driver isnt recognizerd in bios.... so i'm trying to make a USB drive bootable thing so i was following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476302 ...... but it doesnt work
[08:54] <Hexi> but honestly, you can do almost anything with almost any distro
[08:54] <dromer> aarg, my system just recovered from a kernel panic (getting these more often lately) .. any ideas on how to find out what happened and how te prevent it?

[08:55] <leo> nj786, crossover, wine, cedega... you cant run .exe files in linux natively
[08:55] <astro76> nj786, what is the .exe?
[08:55] <johnybot> nj786: exe are windows executable files, i was not laughing at you but what you said
[08:56] <kahrytan> .join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:56] <n2diy> dromer:  check your log files in /var/log
[08:56] <nj786> leo: how?
[08:56] <kahrytan> oops
[08:56] <leo> nj786, what kind of exe is it? what app?
[08:56] <johnybot> nj786: install wine from synaptic
[08:56] <nj786> leo: a game
[08:56] <kahrytan> What game
[08:56] <nj786> johnybot: i already have it
[08:56] <leo> nj786, you may want to try wine first and see if that works, if not, cedega will be
[08:57] <dromer> n2diy: which files ?
[08:57] <minhvu> hello
[08:57] <Tixer2> I have a really messed up HDD
[08:57] <nj786> the game is called CARBON POKER
[08:57] <leo> nj786, do you have wine installed?
[08:57] <Smackban> nj786, then install the .exe onto the Wine C drive folder and use wine
[08:57] <minhvu> can yu help me ?
[08:57] <nj786> leo: yes
[08:57] <johnybot> nj786: open the file and if it asks you what to run with then choose to run with 'wine'
[08:57] <Tixer2> I get IO errrors when I try to write to one folder on the drive
[08:57] <johnybot> minhvu: yes
[08:57] <Tixer2> but for some reason, all other folders work correctly
[08:57] <Tixer2> any ideas?
[08:57] <leo> nj786, what johnybot said
[08:57] <Kris07> After downloading Ubuntu Ultimate, how would I go about writing it to a disk?
[08:57] <minhvu> I am using 800x600
[08:57] <n2diy> dromer: system, and security?
[08:57] <johnybot> Tixer2: do you have permission to write to the folder
[08:58] <nj786> johnybot: when i double click it it doesnt ask me
[08:58] <minhvu> i want to use 1024x768 monitor
[08:58] <johnybot> nj786: right click and choose to run with
[08:58] <NETWizz> Ubuntu just shutdown on me
[08:58] <minhvu> how can i do that ?
[08:58] <nj786> Cannot open /home/nj786/Desktop/CarbonPoker.exe: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[08:58] <n2diy> dromer: and message
[08:58] <NETWizz> Told me I have 2 minutes my battery is low
[08:58] <johnybot> minhvu: what video card do you have
[08:58] <NETWizz> Then the pice of crap shutdown in about 2 seconds
[08:58] <minhvu> ati
[08:58] <nj786> johnybot: there is no run with
[08:58] <Smackban> uh oh
[08:58] <blazemonger> i have a ati radeon 7200 all in wonder
[08:58] <Smackban> ATI Run!
[08:58] <cam1223> Frogzoo: so u think it whould be better to defrag the FAT drive with windows?
[08:59] <minhvu> johnybot : Ati
[08:59] <Tixer2> johnybot: I'm really sure
[08:59] <dromer> n2diy: gah, my syslog is overfloaded by: APIC error on CPU0: 01(02)  (I've had this since I tried linux)
[08:59] <johnybot> minhvu: have you tried the screen resolution changer in the system manu
[08:59] <leo> nj786, do you have an app called wine file?
[08:59] <nj786> leo: i have no clue
[08:59] <johnybot> Tixer2: which folder?
[08:59] <minhvu> how can I do that ?
[08:59] <kahrytan> FYI: ATI Sucks for Linux
[08:59] <n2diy> dromer: ok, then boot with the noapic option?
[08:59] <nj786> leo: i see wine in my apps menu
[08:59] <subtledecision> ati isnt linux friendly
[08:59] <Tixer2> ./media/disk/www/
[08:59] <subtledecision> gg nvidia
[09:00] <Tixer2> I can write to say, /media/disk/windows
[09:00] <johnybot> minhvu:  System > Preferences > screen resolution
[09:00] <Tixer2> but I can't write to /media/disk/www
[09:00] <leo> nj786, i dont use gnome... in my k menu i have wine file as well
[09:00] <NETWizz> it doesn't matter what you use to defrag fat
[09:00] <dromer> n2diy: and I have no idea what to look for in those files to be honest ..
[09:00] <MajorPayne> nj786: Try opening a terminal then typing "wine ~/Desktop/CarbonPoker.exe".
[09:00] <NETWizz> linux understands fat completely
[09:00] <n2diy> dromer: ok, then boot with the noapic option?
[09:00] <NETWizz> there are no fat secrets
[09:00] <minhvu> johnybot : oh ! I see ! thank you very much
[09:01] <Frogzoo> cam1223: depends on the maturity of whatever linux tool you can find
[09:01] <leo> nj786, go to terminal and type winefile and see if that works
[09:01] <subtledecision> does linux understand ntfs natively?
[09:01] <bullgard4> What is the Gnome equivalent command to the KDM command '/etc/init.d/kdm stop'?
[09:01] <johnybot> Johnybot 1, bill gates 0
[09:01] <leo> nj786, you'll get a windoze like file manager
[09:01] <nj786> leo: hold on im installin wine-dev from synaptic
[09:01] <MajorPayne> bullgard4: gdm
[09:01] <dromer> n2diy: that will solve the "APIC error on CPU0: 01(02)" error?  but what about my recent kernel panics? (running this system for a year now, started with dapper)
[09:01] <MajorPayne> bullgard4: So, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:01] <johnybot> Tixer2: sorry
[09:01] <Tixer2> johnybot: Any ideas?
[09:01] <bullgard4> MajorPayne: Thank you.
[09:02] <johnybot> Tixer2: if it is removable drive try checking it in windows :P
[09:02] <Tixer2> kk
[09:02] <n2diy> dromer: they could be related? Just upgraded to Dapper? I love it. How did you upgrade?
[09:02] <leo> does anybody know how to apply the patch in bug #80199?
[09:02] <subtledecision> whats the difference between dapper and fiesty?
[09:02] <johnybot> subtledecision: 6 months
[09:03] <dromer> n2diy: no, I _started_ with dapper over a yera ago .. and have upgraded to edgy and then feisty along the way
[09:03] <Smackban> its an upgrade?
[09:03] <astro76> 1 year!
[09:03] <johnybot> haha sorry
[09:03] <johnybot> i was off
[09:03] <n2diy> dromer: so your not using Dapper?
[09:03] <subtledecision> so its 1yr ahead of fiesty?
[09:03] <dromer> n2diy: hell no
[09:03] <johnybot> behind
[09:03] <astro76> actually 10 months  :O
[09:03] <Kris07> hello
[09:03] <dromer> haha
[09:03] <subtledecision> Oh ok.
[09:03] <MajorPayne> subtledecision: Fiesty is the newest.
[09:03] <astro76> subtledecision, fiesty is the latest 7.04
[09:04] <nj786> MajorPayne: ok i did what you told me and the game is asking to download flash 8 to play it now how do i download flash 8?
[09:04] <johnybot> fiesty is 7(2007).04(april)
[09:04] <subtledecision> Thanks guys
[09:04] <dromer> n2diy: just wanted to explan that the APIC error has been here all this time .. but these kernel panics only recent (at least since feisty upgrade .. but some time shorter)
[09:04] <subtledecision> or gals
[09:04] <subtledecision> lol
[09:04] <johnybot> guy
[09:04] <n2diy> dromer: Why do you call it an upgrade? Nobody using Dapper is asking questions here?
[09:04] <MajorPayne> nj786: I don't know.  Ask the channel.
[09:04] <nj786> how do i download flash 8
[09:04] <johnybot> dapper is LTS is it not?
[09:05] <chelala> HI! I'm installing flybird on dapper scons fails "libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.110.0", can it be solved ?
[09:05] <Myrtti> nj786: there is no such thing
[09:05] <dromer> n2diy: I'm not talking about dapper .. just saying my situation .. and that I don't think the APIC-error has to do with the kernel panics ..
[09:05] <Smackban> ! flash | nj786
[09:05] <ubotu> nj786: 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
[09:05] <leo> nj786, you need flash 8 for windoze
[09:05] <MajorPayne> subtledecision: Here is a tip, the first number is the year, the second two numbers is the month.  7.04 is April 2007, 6.10 is October 2006.
[09:05] <n2diy> dromer: Roger that, so the question concerns what happened with the upgrade. Dapper is working fine here, good luck.
[09:06] <leo> so gutsy will be 7.10?
[09:06] <dromer> n2diy: perhaps .. you still running dapper though?
[09:06] <johnybot> yes
[09:06] <bullgard4> What is the unit of measurement of the dmesg timestamps: seconds or milliseconds? Example: [   28.580000] 
[09:06] <chelala> hello?
[09:06] <johnybot> chelala: high
[09:06] <MajorPayne> !hi | chelala
[09:06] <ubotu> chelala: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:06] <dromer> so can someone help me figure out what this kernel panic I just had is about?
[09:06] <chelala> HI! I'm installing flybird on dapper scons fails "libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.110.0", can it be solved ?
[09:06] <n2diy> dromer: Yes, I'm sticking with it as long as I can.
[09:06] <dromer> haha
[09:07] <johnybot> chelala: upgrade to feisty?
[09:07] <dromer> wel I'm glad I upgraded the two times .. feisty is pretty good (though kernel panics aren't nice ofcourse ;) )
[09:07] <nj786> leo: yes
[09:07] <n2diy> dromer: haha yourself, an answer questions most of the time, rather than ask them. ;)
[09:07] <nj786> leo: yes for windows
[09:07] <johnybot> i have gotten pretty close to my kernel and it no longer panics around me
[09:07] <chelala> not possible, I need LTS cuba, low band width, or offline
[09:07] <leo> nj786, that wasnt a question lol... i was stating that
[09:07] <leo> nj786, winedoors may work for you
[09:07] <nj786> leo: oh
[09:07] <subtledecision> lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ&mode=related&search=
[09:08] <nj786> leo: what is that?
[09:08] <Ashfire908> how do you manually edit the menu in gnome?
[09:08] <chelala> johnybot not possible, I need LTS cuba, low band width, or offline most of the time
[09:08] <subtledecision> vista aero vs beryl
[09:08] <leo> nj786, its an app that installs win apps in your win virtual drive
[09:08] <nj786> leo: how do i get it?

[09:09] <ubotu> towlie: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:09] <towlie> something strange just happened. i was in firefox when the screen dimmed and turned dark
[09:09] <subtledecision> lol time out
[09:09] <subtledecision> did it to me too
[09:09] <johnybot> towlie: you running compiz
[09:09] <towlie> yes
[09:09] <novato_br> how to test my dual channel mode on linux?
[09:09] <johnybot> towlie: compiz dims the program when it is unresponsive
[09:09] <Ashfire908> !menu
[09:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about menu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:09] <echosystm> ubuntu gets 77% through the install
[09:09] <echosystm> then stops
[09:10] <MajorPayne> novato_br: Dual channel mode as in dual channel ram?
[09:10] <Trey> Hello all.
[09:10] <echosystm> "gathering information for installation report"
[09:10] <johnybot> Trey: yoho
[09:10] <echosystm> any ideas?
[09:10] <MajorPayne> !hi | Trey
[09:10] <ubotu> Trey: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:10] <johnybot> echosystm: how long have you waited at 77%?
[09:10] <echosystm> ages
[09:10] <Ashfire908> how do you manually edit the menu in gnome?
[09:10] <echosystm> like 15 minutes
[09:10] <Trey> I'm facing some problems with gcc on my fiesty installation.
[09:10] <chelala> johnybot I form windows and love total commader there, I though it is a similar in linux, anyother know replacement for linux (except mc)?
[09:10] <subtledecision> I had a bad issue with compiz where it didnt have the minimize/maximize/close button
[09:11] <echosystm> does it take longer than 15m? lol
[09:11] <towlie> johnybot, i see...
[09:11] <Trey> The header files are not found by the compiler.
[09:11] <johnybot> chelala: a window manager replacement?
[09:11] <MajorPayne> Trey: What header files?  How did you install gcc, build-essential?
[09:12] <subtledecision> Anybody extremely good with compiz?
[09:12] <Trey> No, I didn't. I just tried to run it off the box.
 try : ctrl_alt_F1 to console, and kill the apt-get process
[09:12] <MajorPayne> Trey: Off a fresh install?  Try "sudo aptitude install build-essential".
[09:12] <Sinderking> hi all
[09:13] <Trey> Okay will try that.. thanks MajorPayne!!
[09:13] <MajorPayne> !hi | Sinderking
[09:13] <chelala>  johnybot I use gnome nautilus, I meant some 2 pannels, F5 copy, .... like norton commander, total commander, midnight commancer
[09:13] <ubotu> Sinderking: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:13] <Ashfire908> where is the menu file stored?
[09:13] <johnybot> The download is about 2MB; available in both 16- and 32-bit versions, for the various versions of Windows, and works just as well on Linux using Wine. Linux users may also want to consider using similar open source software Krusader or GNOME Commander.
[09:13] <geko> Hi..
[09:13] <Sinderking> thx, err i'm changing from Windows to ubuntu
[09:13] <Sinderking> but i got a problem

[09:16] <King_Leonidas> yo
[09:16] <King_Leonidas> how do I change the port ubutnu bttorrent uses?
[09:16] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Do you remember your user name/password or is it another problem?
[09:16] <johnybot> Sinderking: is it the newest 7.04?
[09:16] <Sinderking> about 7.04
[09:16] <asc> Grub is giving me a 5 error (5 : Partition table invalid or corrupt). The partitions do exist, and I can mount them. Does anybody know what the problem is, or how to fix it?
[09:16] <Sinderking> yes i remember them
[09:16] <Ax3> what's the command to find pidgin on my system?
[09:16] <Crav> johnybot: i assume it was my fault as it was working and than later it was... NOT working
[09:16] <Ax3> /usr/bin/pidgin isn't found
[09:16] <Ax3> :(
[09:17] <Sinderking> it's another problem Major
[09:17] <Ax3> but the link on the menu works...
[09:17] <Sache> any help for font prob?
[09:17] <johnybot> Crav: linux is extremely stable if you dont mess with it :P sorry i cant think of any help :(
[09:17] <MajorPayne> Ax3: Pidgin?  Ubuntu still uses Gaim.
[09:17] <astro76> Ax3, did you compile it? maybe /usr/local/bin/
[09:17] <johnybot> you can get pidgin from getdeb
[09:18] <Ax3> MajorPayne, yes i found a .deb though of pidgin and it works, but i can't find the path
[09:18] <Sinderking> i can logon but after i've logged for a while, it hangs and the yellow-brown window appears at the left-top of my monitor.
[09:18] <leo> Ax3, you said it runs from the menu, check where that links to
[09:18] <johnybot> Ax3: just press alt-f2 and type pidgin
[09:18] <MajorPayne> Ax3: Try dpkg -L "package name"
[09:18] <MajorPayne> Ax3: That will tell you where all files are installed.
[09:18] <Ax3> if I right click on the icon... it gives me two options, to put it on desktop and panel
[09:19] <Ax3> i'll try command, one sec
[09:19] <echosystm> what is the minimum ammount of space i can give ubuntu to install?
  dpkg -L  pidgin
[09:19] <johnybot> Sinderking: that is muffed up
[09:19] <Sache> get fonts like windows...how?
[09:19] <echosystm> my hard drive is only 5gb
[09:19] <nj786> leo: is there a way i can get my .exe files to autmoatically work through wine instead of going through all of this like just dboule clik the program and it opens up?
[09:19] <echosystm> im doing an alt install, command line only
[09:19] <johnybot> Sache:  i think automatix has that option
[09:19] <Sinderking> how to make a gossip (red words)
[09:19] <astro76> !automatix
[09:19] <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
[09:19] <nj786> leo: becuase i still cannot get that game to work
[09:19] <leo> nj786, did you manage to install flash 8?
[09:19] <Tixer2> FUCK
[09:19] <astro76> Sache, install msttcorefonts

[09:20] <johnybot> Tixer2: maybe later
[09:20] <astro76> !language | Tixer2
[09:20] <MajorPayne> !ohmy | Tixer2
[09:20] <Ax3> looks like /usr/lib
[09:20] <Ax3> weird

[09:20] <Tixer2> >.<
[09:20] <Tixer2> time to go get those "backups"
[09:20] <subtledecision> how did you lose your server?
[09:20] <leo> nj786, im sure there's a way but i usually use the wine file cuz it works better for me
[09:20] <echosystm> !ohmy | Tixer2
[09:20] <johnybot> Tixer2: didnt work in windows?
[09:20] <Tixer2> HDD sectors died for /www/
[09:20] <Tixer2> nothing remains.
[09:20] <echosystm> that command does nothing
[09:20] <leo> nj786, i tried running max payne w/o wine file and it doesnt work on me, whereas it does work w/ wine file
[09:20] <johnybot> Tixer2: epic fail :(
[09:20] <Tixer2> :(
[09:20] <Tixer2> time to use a Phoenix Down
[09:21] <johnybot> haha
[09:21] <subtledecision> did you back up?
[09:21] <nj786> leo: wine file?
[09:21] <nj786> leo: how do i get it?
[09:21] <johnybot> didnt work for aeris wont work for HDD
[09:21] <MajorPayne> nj786: You are going to have a lot of trouble running a lot of Windows executables in Ubuntu.  It works for some things but not everything.  Ubuntu is not Windows.
[09:21] <subtledecision> roffle
[09:21] <subtledecision> a pheonix down
[09:21] <astro76> nj786, the command is winefile
[09:21] <leo> nj786, MajorPayne is right, why dont you try looking for an alternative to what you are trying to run?
[09:21] <nj786> MajorPayne: i know becuase 90% of everything is made for windows
[09:22] <subtledecision> lol
[09:22] <asc> When using grub-install, I get a number of "Unknown partition table signature" messages. Does anybody know what this means?
[09:22] <johnybot> nj786: max payne certainly is windows only
[09:22] <leo> johnybot, i mentioned max payne and it runs perfectly w/ wine
[09:22] <nj786> can i find winefile in synptic?
[09:22] <MajorPayne> nj786: There are many packages for Ubuntu.  You just may have to try looking for an alternative to what you are trying to do.
[09:22] <astro76> nj786, it's a part of the wine package

[09:23] <Tixer2> spoons are fun
[09:23] <MajorPayne> Tixer2: That will not make your computer run any faster.
[09:23] <leo> johnybot, i was just saying that when i use wine file max payne works and when i try using wine form console it doesnt
[09:23] <subtledecision> sporks are easier to use
[09:23] <Tixer2> It won't?
[09:23] <nj786> it told me before i needed flash 8
[09:23] <leo> johnybot, and max payne is not an fps
[09:24] <johnybot> i know thats why i said shooter :P
[09:24] <leo> johnybot, touche... world of padman <3 lol

[09:26] <subtledecision> dont give up, give in
[09:26] <johnybot> Phantom19: rpm in ubuntu?
[09:26] <leo> nj786, if your trying to run a poker game look for a free alternative
[09:26] <astro76> Phantom19, ubuntu doesn't use rpms
[09:27] <MajorPayne> Phantom19: RPM.  If you mean Red Hat Package Manager you should know that Ubuntu uses the deb package manager.
[09:27] <n2diy> give up?! why?

[09:31] <johnybot> Phantom19: mostly Command line
[09:31] <Tixer2> The other half you won't?
[09:31] <nj786> johnybot: its a .exe file both the game and the flash file
[09:32] <johnybot> Phantom19: you can run nautilus as root but its a nono

[09:33] <Nurohman> halo everybody, can u help me , i wan to mount ncpfs /netware via /etc/fstab. i m using edgy
[09:33] <n2diy> johnybot: why not?
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> 'm trying to follow hte directions here to get an ltsp client that boots without need of a cdrom or floppy:
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPBootingClientsWithoutPxe?highlight=%28ltsp%29
[09:34] <nj786> ok well how do i install this flash.exe
[09:34] <astro76> Tixer2, they are completely separate partitions on different mount points (assume you still mean your /media/www)
[09:34] <MajorPayne> nj786: You can't install that.
[09:34] <Lucifer_arma> after following all those directions, the thing still booted into windows 2000 (the last OS on the hard drive)
[09:34] <Phantom19> thanks all, i'm out, c u later
[09:34] <subtledecision> Tixer2: plenty of reasons...power flash, kool-aid, cats, kicking it?
[09:34] <leo> nj786, convert them and play poker2d :-D
[09:34] <johnybot> Tixer2: sudo corrupt /media/www
[09:35] <Lucifer_arma> not sure what my question is.  I guess it's "why?"  :)
[09:35] <Nurohman> halo everybody, can u help me , i want to mount ncpfs / netware via /etc/fstab. i m using edgy
[09:35] <nj786> lol i give up
[09:35] <nj786> lol screw it
[09:35] <nj786> i give up
[09:35] <johnybot> Lucifer_arma: is the boot order set up in the bios?
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> yes
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> theroetically I wiped the hard drive out completely
[09:36] <johnybot> haha
[09:36] <Lucifer_arma> I'm thinking of going ahead and creating some filesystems just to Make Sure ;)
[09:36] <Lucios> i got problem in my /et/resolv.conf
[09:36] <Tixer2> astro76: It's one partition, on one mount point. /media/disk/www is corrupt, /media/disk/www/windows isn't
[09:36] <Tixer2> Why would www be cursed and not windows?
[09:36] <Tixer2> I'd think it's the other way around
[09:37] <Sinderking> hi again everyone, i need help.
[09:37] <Lucifer_arma> because microsoft doesn't own www?
[09:37] <Lucios> the ip dns that i write in the file will change to my ip router
[09:37] <johnybot> Sinderking: shoot!
[09:37] <MajorPayne> Tixer2: Are they all on the same partition or is something a mount point?
[09:37] <Lucios> the connection so slow when it change to ip router
[09:37] <Lucios> how to make it will not change?
[09:37] <leo> well... my subwoofer is still not working but hopefully gutsy will take care of that... i had a great time nonetheless
[09:37] <Sinderking> johnybot: My com hangs after I logon
[09:37] <astro76> Tixer2, ahh you said /media/disk/windows before ;)
[09:37] <Lucios> anyone?
[09:37] <leo> everybody have a good day/night... im off to play the mana world :-D
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: turn of dhcp?
[09:38] <weston> bye bye
[09:38] <Lucios> it will make i headache
[09:38] <astro76> Tixer2, uh, it could just be the permissions on the windows subdir allow you to write, but you can't write to root. what was the error?
[09:38] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: What you say it hangs, what do you see?
[09:38] <Sinderking> johnybot: no button, no backgroud, no navigation bar appears at all
[09:38] <Tixer2> astro76: my bad, i meant /media/disk/windows
[09:38] <Lucios> the dhcp in my router is on
[09:38] <johnybot> Lucifer_arma: http://www.opendns.com/start/unix.php read the DHCP part
[09:38] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: That is after you log on?
[09:38] <Tixer2> It kept giving me an IO error whenever I tried to write to that folder
[09:38] <astro76> Tixer2, sorry I read that completely wrong
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: no, turn off dhcp on your computer
[09:38] <subtledecision> opendns os cool
[09:38] <subtledecision> is*
[09:38] <Tixer2> and when I brought the drive up from my server room, it gave me a blank folder when mounted on windows
[09:38] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: I see only the brown window at the top-left of my screen
[09:38] <Lucifer_arma> I think johnybot's link was intended for Lucios
[09:38] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: And that's all
[09:39] <astro76> Tixer2, what was the error again?
[09:39] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Is that after or before you try to log on by typing your username/password?
[09:39] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: how to turn of dhcp in my computer?
[09:39] <Crav> anyone know of a prgm to brute force a rar password (i forgot my old pass!)
[09:39] <Sinderking> after typing user/pass
[09:39] <Tixer2> Something that it can 't write due to an IO device error
[09:39] <Lucifer_arma> Lucios: go to network settings and give it a static IP?
[09:40] <astro76> Tixer2, what kind of filesystem is it?
[09:40] <Lucifer_arma> of course, you'll need new dns servers then
[09:40] <Tixer2> NTFS
[09:40] <Sinderking> .
[09:40] <johnybot> Tixer2: haha
[09:40] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: u mean in networkmanager
[09:40] <kimmey> any im-program in linux that transfer files with normal speed?
[09:40] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Humm.  Ok.  Sorry.  I thought I might be able to help.
[09:40] <johnybot> kimmey: gaim / pidgin ?
[09:40] <subtledecision> gaim does
[09:40] <Lucifer_arma> now if I can just get my thin client to boot without a cd...
[09:40] <kimmey> when sending to other with msn messenger its very slow
[09:40] <weston> is there a website where a linux newbie should start?
[09:40] <astro76> Tixer2, have you tried a diskcheck in windows?
[09:40] <kimmey> like 5Kbs
[09:40] <kimmey> No, not mine
[09:41] <kimmey> 1-5KBs all the time
[09:41] <kimmey> Works great in windows tho
[09:41] <subtledecision> firewall?
[09:41] <kimmey> I get like 50 there
[09:41] <kimmey> I have no firewall
[09:41] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: it's ok Major, i can still run Ubuntu with LiveCD
[09:41] <johnybot> kimmey:  :O
[09:41] <astro76> Tixer2, also there's ntfsfix in package ntfsprogs
[09:41] <Tixer2> no point in a disk check, since I have my web files
[09:41] <MajorPayne> !enter | kimmey
[09:41] <ubotu> kimmey: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:41] <Tixer2> I just lost some "critical" data, if you know what I mean :)
[09:41] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Yea, but that is slow.
[09:41] <johnybot> Sinderking: try reinstalling, it couldnt hurt
[09:41] <Crav> weston: ubuntuforums.org can answer just about any question, go to the absolute begginer talk area, and there's a walkthrough. they'll be able to help you with just about anything
[09:41] <weston> k thanks
[09:42] <Lucifer_arma> !version
[09:42] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[09:42] <Sinderking> johnybot: i've reinstalled for 3 times already XD (or i have to burn a new cd??)
[09:42] <MajorPayne> kimmey: If it is a small file, I sugest just puting it as an email atachment, larger files, scp is great.
[09:42] <kimmey> ye
[09:42] <MajorPayne> kimmey: But that is not an IM client.  Has nothing to do with IM.
[09:42] <johnybot> Sinderking: well you could try Kubuntu or Xubuntu but i dont know if they'd work
[09:42] <subtledecision> might want to re-download the iso and reburn the iso
[09:43] <kimmey> but I have friends (girls) who dosent know stuff like that.. just sending via pidin as I do know is the best ;p
[09:43] <Sinderking> johnybot: what's the different between them?
[09:43] <johnybot> Sinderking:  the Desktop manager and default programs
[09:43] <kimmey> MajorPayne: have I ever said that scp or sending files via mail is an IM-client?
[09:43] <Sinderking>  okay..
[09:43] <johnybot> Sinderking: they can all do pretty much the same stuff
[09:44] <MajorPayne> kimmey: No, but you did say "any im-program in linux that transfer files with normal speed?".
[09:44] <MajorPayne> kimmey: I suggest 2 things, but nither of them is an im-program.
[09:44] <subtledecision> Kimmey: you also have to fact in the other bandwidth the other person is using before/during the file transfer.
[09:44] <Sinderking> hey how do you perform a gossip
[09:44] <subtledecision> and distance
[09:44] <johnybot> !gossip ?
[09:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gossip ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:45] <Sinderking> thx
[09:45] <kimmey> I did som googling and only find that the transfer-issue is a bug in gaim/piding.. Ive tried with AMSN but thats not much better. and, subtledecision: I send to lots of people.. all of them arent downloading/uploading so much that 1-5KBs should be normal speed :P
[09:45] <Lucifer_arma> did you try kopete?
[09:45] <NETWizz> Hi
[09:45] <NETWizz> I want an LCARS menu
[09:46] <Sinderking> I mean when you chat, you can speak directly to me (sinderking: ....). how can i gossip back to you
[09:46] <NETWizz> for Ubuntu
[09:46] <johnybot> NETWizz: dont we all
[09:46] <kimmey> Ive tried but it just seems to be fucked up unless im in KDE.. not sure what it is
[09:46] <NETWizz> Shoudl be doable
[09:46] <grizm> I want LCARS too
[09:46] <johnybot> just type johnybot:
[09:46] <Sinderking> haha ok so there was no command at all
[09:46] <kimmey> It takes about 1-2 min before I can see my contacts, and its hard to even send messages..
[09:47] <Lucifer_arma> uninstall all viruses and worms and you'll be fine
[09:47] <johnybot> http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/10/24/0347245
[09:47] <subtledecision> same here lucifer_arma
[09:47] <MajorPayne> kimmey: Sending files is not very well supported in all IM clients that I have tried.  Not to say there is any out there.
[09:47] <EADG_> Antbody know what this process is doing? Pegged my cpu @ 100% and it's been running for over 7 minutes... /usr/bin/krfb_httpd --kinetd 21 o the inetd socket.cp3/dhclient.ath0.leases ath0 gid=46
[09:47] <Tixer2> If you need to send files, set up apache.
[09:47] <MajorPayne> kimmey: You may want to look for an alternative.
[09:47] <subtledecision> have you tried email Kimmey?
[09:47] <subtledecision> that always works
[09:47] <Tixer2> Just run a web server, and put the stuff you want to share there
[09:48] <MajorPayne> subtledecision: Unless it is a very large file.
[09:48] <Lucios> Lucifer_arma: ok..done..
[09:48] <subtledecision> lol, Ticer2, that was my first thought
[09:48] <dromer> how can I find out what the cause of a kernel-panic was?
[09:48] <johnybot> EADG_: http based VNC client
[09:48] <subtledecision> tixer2**
[09:48] <kimmey> Ye, I want :) any suggestions? :) Yes but.. i prefer to send via im and if its possible to make it work better some way I do that :)
[09:48] <Sinderking> johnybot: i just recognize that i may have made partitions to my HD using wrong file system and that maybe the cause
[09:48] <MajorPayne> kimmey: Like I say, it's not supported very well in any IM cilent I tried.
[09:49] <Lucifer_arma> konversation does well
[09:49] <johnybot> Sinderking: well you can tell it to go with default partitions
[09:49] <dolog> Hey Now  I have folder Called Windows in my FileSystem Drive, What I can do after that to mount Ntfs ?
[09:49] <EADG_> johnybot: thanks. I'd better look into it cince I don't run vnc
[09:49] <Sinderking> johnybot: what file system do i have to use with ubuntu? ext3 and swap right?
[09:50] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[09:50] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: You can use many different file systems with Ubuntu.  ext3 is the default.
[09:50] <johnybot> Sinderking: try kubuntu or xubuntu
[09:50] <johnybot> !xubuntu
[09:50] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[09:51] <kimmey> xfce is nice :)
[09:51] <johnybot> i used xfce untill it failed
[09:51] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: so if i use only ext3 so i can still run ubuntu right? i thought i must use ext3 and swap together
[09:51] <dolog> Now  I have folder Called Windows in my FileSystem Drive, What I can do after that to mount Ntfs ?:'(
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Swap is different.  I suggest creating a swap partition about 2x the size of your RAM.
[09:52] <johnybot> Swap size war!
[09:52] <subtledecision> !patience | dolog
[09:52] <ubotu> dolog: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: The rest of your partitions can be ext3 if you want.
[09:52] <dolog> Thanks subtledecision
[09:52] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: sorry i'm really confused now
[09:52] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: But the swap size is really up to you.
[09:52] <Lucifer_arma> I used xfce until it failed, too, which means I used it for about 2 minutes
[09:53] <Sinderking> Major: just a sec
[09:53] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Ok.
[09:53] <subtledecision> also dolog did you check the forum?
[09:54] <sauvin> I used xfce and it took a real beating before I got bored and turned the computer off.
[09:54] <intangir> why is ubuntu mounting one of my partitions and putting a link to it on the desktop
[09:54] <dolog> subtledecision:  plz I know but really am Here since 3 or 4 hrs ago
[09:54] <intangir> i dont want it being linked to on the desktop
[09:54] <csc`> intangir: because its gnome
[09:54] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: if i have to 2GB of RAM then i requre 4GB of swap and the remaning is ext3 to have ubuntu run properly ??
[09:54] <intangir> it doesnt link to /boot or /home, why does it show /reserved...
[09:54] <intangir> when i dont want it even mounting at all
[09:54] <sauvin> it's not just gnome that does that. KDE does it, too.
[09:54] <kimmey> I have used xfce for a long time now, never had any problems with it
[09:54] <johnybot> Sinderking: you only need 2g but if you want to suspend and some stuff you need more
[09:55] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: You don't need 2x swap.  With 2gb maybe try 3 gb of swap.
[09:55] <intangir> also why does my fstab file have weird IDs of some kind for my partitions? rather than their dev links?
[09:55] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: But yes, you can make the remaining ext3 if you wish.
[09:55] <Navi_> The RAM*2 swap thing is outdated, you really don't need it unless you plan on suspending to disk.
[09:55] <Sinderking> johnybot: could you please give me some example of stuffs?
[09:55] <TTilus> Sinderking: it's really up to you, you don't _need_ swap at all, but a general rule of thumb is 2xRAM
[09:55] <johnybot> Sinderking:  just go with the auto allocate in the install
[09:56] <astro76> !uuid | intangir
[09:56] <ubotu> intangir: 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)
[09:56] <kimmey> If you have 2GB of ram, you dont need so much swap?
[09:56] <tarzeau> how can i quickly register a font with fontconfig?
[09:56] <MajorPayne> kimmey: If you are going to hibernate or anything like that you do.
[09:56] <TTilus> Sinderking: and as Navi_ said, if you do not plan to suspend you can very well go with 1xRAM
[09:56] <johnybot> Sinderking: stuff = things i dont know about
[09:56] <sauvin> It doesn't matter how much RAM you have, though, if you're an idiot like me, you'll sooner or later overrun it.
[09:56] <NemesisD> excellent, helix player broke my package manager
[09:57] <babo> how do i restart the cups daemon again ?
[09:57] <TTilus> Sinderking: ...and i ment to say 'hibernate' not 'suspend' as i did
[09:57] <babo> /etc/rc.d/cups restart ?
[09:57] <MajorPayne> babo: That should do it.
[09:57] <Sinderking> ha ha ok
[09:57] <Lucifer_arma> sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart ?
[09:57] <Lucifer_arma> -?
[09:57] <MajorPayne> babo: You will need root, so sudo
[09:57] <Myrtti> cupsys
[09:57] <johnybot> i have a daemon in my cups :(
[09:57] <babo> MajorPayne: bash: /etc/rc.d/cups: No such file or directory
[09:58] <Blah__> hmm
[09:58] <Blah__> hello
[09:58] <NemesisD> ok so helix-player seems to have broken my "software index", how do i get it out of apt's queue so this will no longer be a problem?
[09:58] <MajorPayne> babo: when you start to type cups press tab, it will figure it out for you.
[09:58] <Sinderking> Major,johny,TTilus: ok here's the last question "Which one is better : A. x2 swap of RAM and the remaining is ext3 / B. all is swap / C. all is ext3"
[09:58] <johnybot> sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
[09:58] <Blah__> is there a software like daemon tools for ubuntu?
[09:59] <babo> root@eire:/home/babo# /etc/rc.d/cups restart
[09:59] <babo> bash: /etc/rc.d/cups: No such file or directory
[09:59] <Navi_> Blah__, you can mount isos without a tool.
[09:59] <johnybot> Blah__: you can mount isos directly
[09:59] <babo> there's no /etc/rc.d directory
[09:59] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: All swap would be silly.  I suggest letting the install figure out what space to use for what unless you have a reason to tweak it.
[09:59] <johnybot> babo: /etc/init.d/cups restart
[09:59] <babo> ah thankss
[09:59] <adam> hi! how do i get 32bit libs for ubuntu to use with epsxe (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1392699&postcount=84)
[09:59] <johnybot> google 1, CUPS 0
[09:59] <Sinderking> MajorPayne: is LiveCd can figure it for me? i didn't know before
[10:00] <MajorPayne> Sinderking: Yea, it can.  I can't remember the exact option.
[10:00] <intangir> what does it use to determine wether or not it adds a link to what yuo mounted in the desktop?
[10:00] <intangir> cause i dont want that damn link there..
[10:00] <MajorPayne> babo: Ohh, I'm sorry.  I didn't realise you typed rc.d.  Yea, the start/stop/restart scripts are in init.d on Debian based distros.
[10:00] <crackerbox> what is the best way to set an environment variable (say $VIDEO) that is the model of my video card in bash?
[10:00] <Blah__> but when i try to run exe files it says "No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file."
[10:00] <babo> k thanks
[10:01] <Blah__> got any ideas?
[10:01] <johnybot> Blah__: wine
[10:01] <Blah__> sorry im totally a newbie on this system, got it today :)
[10:01] <MajorPayne> Blah__: You can't run exe nativly in Ubuntu.  You must use something like wine.
[10:01] <Sinderking> Major: ok that's very fantastic i'll go reinstall the OS. thank you everyone
[10:01] <csc`> MajorPayne: theres something other than wine? please do tell.
[10:01] <MajorPayne> Blah__: Or even better, try an alternative for the program you are trying to use.
[10:01] <TTilus> Sinderking: A is ok, B is insane since it leaves you no disk space, C works but you can not hibernate and you could have trouble if you run out of ram
[10:01] <johnybot> Blah__: install 'wine' in synaptics
[10:02] <gimpy-afk> later
[10:02] <gimpy-afk> good night
[10:02] <TTilus> Sinderking: do you _know_ what swap is for?
[10:02] <Lucifer_bed> what I don't understand about this is that the boot sector isn't modified
[10:02] <Sinderking> i dont really know all of them
[10:02] <MajorPayne> csc`: There are others based on wine.
[10:02] <Sinderking> neither swap nor ext series
[10:02] <wingot> Hey guys
[10:02] <Navi_> I need help
[10:02] <johnybot> wingot: yoho
[10:02] <wingot> I just installed ubuntu, and it's not working~!
[10:02] <johnybot> navi shoot
[10:02] <Navi_> Why isn't my wireless card working?
[10:02] <Lucifer_bed> if the boot sector isn't modified, how can it boot?
[10:02] <Ax3> help! http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html <---- what is going on here!?
[10:03] <johnybot> wingot: more specific please
[10:03] <RedShift> wingot: did you try replacing your powersupply?
[10:03] <Lucifer_bed> anyway, here I go again
[10:03] <csc`> wingot: did you try formatting your harddrive?
[10:03] <Sinderking> TTilus: i dont really know all of em neither swap nor ext series
[10:03] <Navi_> csc`, yeah, I did.
[10:03] <wingot> jonybot It's showing awhole lot of lines, then comming up with one that says "Kernel Panic: ..."
[10:03] <Navi_> csc`, but it didn't work :(
[10:03] <MajorPayne> !doesn't work | wingot
[10:03] <ubotu> wingot: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[10:03] <crackerbox> is there a way to set an environment variable (say $VIDEO) that is the model of my video card in bash?
[10:04] <TTilus> Sinderking: the ext thing is a disk you put your stuff to, swap is reserved for os (you do not see it) to use as an extension to ram if it runs out of it
[10:04] <csc`> holy shi... wingot whats a kernel panic?!
[10:04] <johnybot> my kernel is a fighter pilot and never panics
[10:05] <Navi_> How come my wireless card doesn't work?
[10:05] <Sinderking> TTilus: well ext is a program and swap is somekind of RAM heh
[10:05] <TTilus> Sinderking: that rough description is not quite right but you can think of it like that
[10:05] <chiby> nc
[10:05] <johnybot> Navi_: probably because it isnt supported
[10:05] <TTilus> Sinderking: no, not a program, a filesystem type
[10:05] <Ax3> help! http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html <---- what is going on here!? how do I make the command 'pidgin' simply work ?
[10:05] <wingot> ubotu: It sits on the couch all day and drinks beer. It must be Aussie!
[10:05] <Navi_> johnybot: how do I get it supported?
[10:05] <Navi_> johnybot: do I have to pay someone or something?
[10:05] <TTilus> Sinderking: windows hds are ntfs or fat, linux hds mostly ext
[10:06] <wingot> csc`: You think I should format my hard drive then?
[10:06] <turks`> wingot: yes and burn it
[10:06] <johnybot> Navi_: 1. write a driver, 2 give a programmer $ to do it for you 3 wait
[10:06] <MajorPayne> !ubotu | wingot
[10:06] <ubotu> wingot: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:06] <wingot> RedShift: New computer, powersupply is fine (if it has one)
[10:06] <Navi_> johnybot: Is it hard to write a driver?
[10:06] <turks`> johnybot: whats a kernel
[10:06] <TTilus> Sinderking: windows swap is a file on hd, linux mostly uses dedicated swap partition (but can do swap on file too)
[10:06] <wingot> turks`: burn the hard drive to a dvd?
[10:06] <MajorPayne> !linux | turks`
[10:06] <ubotu> turks`: Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[10:06] <turks`> wingot: set fire to that mofkr
[10:06] <johnybot> Navi_: hells yes
[10:07] <wingot> turks`: Oh, really burn it?
[10:07] <wingot> Increased heat makes it more Ubuntu receptive?
[10:07] <Sinderking> TTilus: i understand a bit now
[10:07] <weston> ok, does anyone know how to install the driver for the RaLink 2500/r61?
[10:07] <turks`> increased heat makes ubuntu burn
[10:07] <turks`> =D
[10:07] <johnybot> !misinformation
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about misinformation - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <pawan> hi
[10:07] <TTilus> Sinderking: if all ram is in use and a program asks more, then os can put some not-currently-running program to swap and that way free some ram to the running program asking more
[10:07] <hylje> !fud
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fud - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:08] <Sinderking> dang wheres my livecd
[10:09] <johnybot> Sinderking: check the cd tray :P
[10:09] <TTilus> Sinderking: swap provides os an opportunity to optimize ram usage
[10:09] <gimpy> !doesnt work | johnybot
[10:09] <ubotu> johnybot: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[10:09] <johnybot> i never said doesnt work
[10:09] <gimpy> just did
[10:09] <gimpy> lol
[10:09] <turks`> ubuntu wont install please help
[10:09] <johnybot> damn you gimpy!
[10:09] <Sinderking> well and it's in the tray !! thx
[10:10] <wingot> turks`: Hey, don't install it. It doesn't start
[10:10] <johnybot> SCORE!
[10:10] <wingot> It does some Kernel Panic thing
[10:10] <turks`> wingot: what should i install then
[10:10] <MajorPayne> turks`: You have to be a bit more discriptive.
[10:10] <gimpy> I'm on ubuntu so what did you do wrong?
[10:10] <johnybot> haha
[10:10] <RedShift> turks`: try putting the CD upside down in the CD-ROM drive
[10:10] <turks`> MajorPayne: it says "kernel panic: not syncing: Wizzo was here"
[10:10] <johnybot> virus!
[10:10] <wingot> turks`: I hear that debian is up to date. Lets try that one
[10:10] <Ax3> http://rafb.net/p/6I83EQ24.html - how do I make the command 'pidgin' simply work ?
[10:11] <johnybot> change the symlink
[10:11] <turks`> wingot: i hear archlinux is better, what about that one?
[10:11] <Lucifer_arma> ok, it didn't work at all
[10:11] <johnybot> or opensuse!
[10:11] <wingot> What's archlinux?
[10:11] <johnybot> freespire!
[10:11] <Lucifer_arma> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPBootingClientsWithoutPxe?highlight=%28ltsp%29  <--- any idea how to make this work?
[10:11] <pawan> what is kubuntu desktop
[10:12] <johnybot> !kubuntu
[10:12] <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
[10:12] <wingot> johnybot: You really aren't helping
[10:12] <pawan> how to install it
[10:12] <wingot> And isn't suse owned by Novell? The evil empire?
[10:12] <darkside_> allow
[10:12] <frySt> wingot  archlinux is a distro :>
[10:12] <Navi_> Freespire is the best.
[10:12] <johnybot> pawan exactly like ubuntu but with kubuntu disk
[10:12] <Lucifer_arma> Microsoft is the evil empire, Novell is more like a duchy
[10:12] <gimpy> Why is freespire the best
[10:12] <wingot> frySt: distro? distrobution? Like Ubuntu?
[10:13] <frySt> xactly
[10:13] <soulfetish> excuse me, does anyone know which debian version is feisty fawn based on? debian 1.3, 2.0, 2.1 or 2.1 ?
[10:13] <frySt> bit more advanced i think
[10:13] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: Sorry, my mistake
[10:13] <echosystm> my computer is frozen on "update-manager-core" :(
[10:13] <pawan> where to get that kubuntu disk
[10:13] <Navi_> Freespire is the best because it's the only distro that truely simulates the Windows experience
[10:13] <echosystm> 85% install
[10:13] <johnybot> echosystm: kill it
[10:13] <Navi_> and we all know that that experience is the best.
[10:13] <echosystm> its been like this for about 20 minutes
[10:13] <gimpy> lol @ Navi_
[10:13] <turks`> Navi_: oh boy!
[10:13] <echosystm> what will killing it do?
[10:13] <turks`> Navi_: dont i have to pay microsoft before i can use freespire?
[10:13] <echosystm> maybe its doing something
[10:13] <johnybot> kill... it...?
[10:13] <MajorPayne> Solarion_: Ubuntu is based of Debian Sid.  The unstable branch.  I don't think it has a number since it is ever changing.
[10:14] <frySt> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_Linux but next time, google yourself! :p
[10:14] <wingot> Navi_: But I don't want Windows
[10:14] <wingot> Windows kept crashing!
[10:14] <johnybot> !kill
[10:14] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:14] <Lucifer_arma> !google yourself
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about google yourself - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <pawan> what is kubuntu packages
[10:14] <frySt> !sidewinder
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sidewinder - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?

[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kill * - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <soulfetish> thanks
[10:14] <echosystm> haha lucky i didnt take your advice
[10:14] <echosystm> it just moved
[10:14] <johnybot> pawan:  go to kubuntu site and burn iso
[10:14] <echosystm> :P
[10:14] <echosystm> after 45 minutes
[10:14] <johnybot> echosystm: damn
[10:14] <echosystm> !
[10:14] <RedShift> hey I have windows vista, can I upgrade to ubuntu?
[10:14] <pld> whoops, didn't mean to default into Ubuntu
[10:14] <johnybot> echosystm: how much ram you have?
[10:15] <gimpy> lol, you should upgrade from vista to ubuntu
[10:15] <echosystm> 128mb
[10:15] <pld> RedShift: well, you can obliterate your entire Vista, yes :)
[10:15] <echosystm> its an old pc
[10:15] <gimpy> better tech support
[10:15] <turks`> is ubuntu free?
[10:15] <rodserling> Ubuntu freezes up on me when i enable the ati FGLRX driver after 10 minutes or so?
[10:15] <MajorPayne> pawan: If you are already using Ubuntu you can do a "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop".
[10:15] <wingot> RedShift: But Windows Vista is better then Ubuntu
[10:15] <johnybot> turks`: free as in beer
[10:15] <pld> turks`: yes
[10:15] <turks`> johnybot: but beer costs money
[10:15] <wingot> At least it boots
[10:15] <RedShift> wingot: really? then I'll keep my windows vista
[10:15] <gimpy> lol ubuntu is way better than vista...vista is a joke
[10:15] <Lucifer_arma> pdl: you sure that was an accident?
[10:15] <frySt> nah more like free as in free speech
[10:15] <johnybot> turks`: but the knowledge of how to make beer is free
[10:15] <bruenig_> free as in beer doesn't really make sense, beer isn't free, that is an excellent point
[10:16] <johnybot> !beer
[10:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <grizm> mayba free as in lunch?
[10:16] <Lucifer_arma> free as in beer makes sense to an alcoholic
[10:16] <wingot> johnybot: So free as in beer and free as in speech are the same thing?
[10:16] <frySt> the notion of free as in free beer is when u compare software such as skype to open source software
[10:16] <Sinderking>  well beer is delicious ^^"
[10:16] <pawan> my azuerus is not downloading anything
[10:16] <MajorPayne> wingot: No.
[10:16] <bruenig_> johnybot, no the free as in beer argument is distinct from knowing how to make it, that is free as in speech
[10:16] <pawan> even there are 3 seeds
[10:16] <jasperhax0r> any ppc users here
[10:16] <frySt> with free beer you cannot tell what u actually drink but u still drink it because its free
[10:17] <johnybot> i dont even drink beeer
[10:17] <wingot> frySt: I thought all beer was like that though. You don't know what you are drinking
[10:17] <gimpy> pc users?
[10:17] <gimpy> nope, none here
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> ok, so failing that, has anybody used kdm with ltsp?
[10:17] <johnybot> i have a pc
[10:17] <rodserling> we're all pc users
[10:17] <Sinderking> it's good that you dont
[10:17] <jasperhax0r> Power PC also known as MAC
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> *Mac, you mean
[10:17] <johnybot> my pc holds my legs off the ground
[10:17] <Sinderking> beer kills your health
[10:17] <gimpy> eww he said the M word
[10:17] <MajorPayne> jasperhax0r: But there is PPC and Intel Macs.
[10:17] <frySt> good old reinheitsgebot :)
[10:17] <Lucifer_arma> Mac is not an acronym, so you only capitalize the first letter, if any
[10:17] <bruenig_> MAC is an address
[10:18] <johnybot> Macintosh!
[10:18] <jasperhax0r> true but i seam to be the only PPC Xubuntu user

[10:18] <Sinderking> i mean using ubuntu
[10:18] <rodserling> so, does anyone have a clue as to why my computer freezes up after i enable ati fglrx driver?
[10:19] <rodserling> after 10minutes or so
[10:19] <pawan> azureus not downloading
[10:19] <gimpy> its because ati isnt supported much..other than that I have no clue
[10:19] <jasperhax0r> i got an old i book that im trying to find workable drivers for a USB wireless card, the only problem is there is no NDISWRAPPER for the power pc platform only x86
[10:19] <johnybot> pawan: there are plenty of alternates
[10:19] <gimpy> I suggest get a nvidia card
[10:19] <rodserling> serious?
[10:20] <gimpy> and ebay your ati card
[10:20] <pawan> but i want to use azureus
[10:20] <Catoptromancy> What could cause fstab to keep breaking CD mount point?
[10:20] <johnybot> pawan: awwww muffin
[10:20] <wingot> netdaemon: Heineken is terrible
[10:20] <Catoptromancy> I have to fix it like every 20 minutes
[10:20] <rodserling> i like my x800
[10:20] <wingot> So anyone know how I can solve this kernel panic thing?
[10:20] <pawan> what
[10:20] <frySt> jasperhax0r  there are good chances you dont even need ndiswrapper
[10:21] <weston> for some reason my wireless driver failed to compile
[10:21] <johnybot> wingot: valium?
[10:21] <wingot> I had to boot back into Vista to get onto mIRC
[10:21] <gimpy> umm redo the install?
[10:21] <johnybot> peace!
[10:21] <wingot> johnybot: That would only be a temporary solution
[10:21] <jasperhax0r> well there was only windows drivers made for this device, and ndis wrapper is what i used on my archlinx pc server
[10:21] <bruenig_> redo the install is hardly a solution
[10:21] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: did you change the motherboard or something?
[10:21] <magnetron> !offtopic
[10:21] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:21] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this?
[10:21] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: rather, what did you change that made the kernel get confused?
[10:21] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: It's a new computer, so yes
[10:22] <rodserling> My microwave is smoking? Rebuild the house.
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: and it's an old ubuntu isntallation?
[10:22] <wingot> I only just installed Ubuntu
[10:22] <jasperhax0r> i might be able to find a alternative driver but i dont know what the device is based off
[10:22] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:22] <jasperhax0r> its a 2wire usb wireless adapter
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: so there wasn't a ubuntu installation on that hard drive before?
[10:22] <Lucifer_arma> like for a different hardware configuration?
[10:23] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: There was a Windows Vista, install, and I can still boot into that. Would that make a difference?
[10:23] <DeaD_RaVeN> hi all
[10:23] <Mineralwasser> hi
[10:23] <Sinderking> DeaD_RaVeN: Hi dead, cool name
[10:23] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: shouldn't.  ONly time I've ever gotten a kernel panic (besides on custom kernels) is when I changed hardware out from under an existing kernel
[10:23] <Lucifer_arma> so if you didn't do that, I've got no idea
[10:23] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: What is a kernel panic?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:23] <pintados_16> how do i download files using this XChat?
[10:24] <wingot> pintados_16: Spammer
[10:24] <Lucifer_arma> man, that's really annoying
[10:24] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::Sinderking::] => Hi! sanks
[10:24] <gimpy> no kidding
[10:24] <frySt> jasperhax0r  tell me your device name and i look it up for you
[10:24] <frySt> and i'll tell u if there are ways without ndiswrapper
[10:24] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: it's a critical failure in the kernel.  Kernel can't continue for some reason, so it panics and tells you why
[10:24] <jasperhax0r> what linux detects it as or the name on the device
[10:25] <wingot> Lucifer_arma: Ok. I'll try reinstalling as someone suggested then
[10:25] <frySt> i think i could use both
[10:25] <frySt> :)
[10:25] <jasperhax0r> since on the device it is called, 2Wire 802.11g USB Wirless Adapter
[10:25] <Lucifer_arma> wingot: when you change the hardware out from under it for some reason, reinstalling forces a reconfiguration of the installed kernel, which fixes it
[10:25] <Lucifer_arma> oh damn, he left
[10:26] <Sinderking> .
[10:26] <gimpy> he'll be back, dont worry
[10:26] <tmatix> probably not
[10:26] <weston> alright, im lost on this, before I started ral was my wireless card that was not working, after i installed the driver it fails to show up
[10:26] <jan> can someone tell me the packages name with the build tools ?
[10:26] <Lucifer_arma> build-tools ?
[10:26] <rodserling> build-essentials
[10:26] <weston> lo        no wireless extensions.
[10:26] <weston> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[10:26] <weston> eth1      no wireless extensions.
[10:26] <weston> ra0       no wireless extensions.
[10:26] <rodserling> ?
[10:26] <Sinderking> hey dead reaven how long did you use your livecd
[10:26] <jasperhax0r> the device id in linux is 1630:0005
[10:27] <Stormx2> !paste | weston
[10:27] <ubotu> weston: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:27] <jan> thx rodserling
[10:27] <rodserling> yep
[10:27] <weston> any help?
[10:28] <bcbooter> can someone explain how to install a tar.bz2 file?
[10:29] <nox-Hand> Anyone got some links or names of some awesome Linux projects one can look into when bored? If something that has gui, even better - beta guis ftw :D
[10:29] <grizm> weston, did you try "sudo ifconfig ra0 up"?
[10:29] <weston> lets try
[10:30] <Sinderking> I have to go now everyone bye and c ya all , great helpers
[10:30] <gimpy> Laters
[10:30] <rodserling> cya
[10:31] <weston> well, that brought it back.....but when I try to connect to wireless point, my computer freezes
[10:32] <grizm> weston, I don't know, did you read /var/log/syslog?
[10:32] <jasperhax0r> i got some more information ,the device has a netchip net2280 chip on it and the board has ZCOM XG701b also on it
[10:33] <pawan> hi
[10:34] <pawan> i dont want to see all the hard disk on desktop
[10:34] <Stormx2> pawan: gconf-editor. There is a setting to turn it off
[10:34] <pawan> how
[10:34] <gimpy> whats a good disk defrag for fiesty?
[10:35] <Stormx2> !defrag | Stormx2
[10:35] <Stormx2> UHG
[10:35] <Stormx2> !defrag | gimpy
[10:35] <ubotu> gimpy: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[10:35] <frySt> hm
[10:35] <gimpy> hmm cool
[10:35] <frySt> jasperhax0r  as it seems there is no way around ndiswrapper
[10:35] <gimpy> I <3 linux
[10:35] <pawan> what is gconf-editor
[10:35] <weston> lulz
[10:36] <khelll> how can i get my ib
[10:36] <khelll> ?
[10:36] <khelll> ip?
[10:36] <gimpy> http://whatismyip.com
[10:36] <Stormx2> pawan: It's an application
[10:36] <pawan> how to start it
[10:36] <Stormx2> pawan: Alt + F2. Type gconf-editor
[10:36] <khelll> no i mean the network ip
[10:36] <Stormx2> pawan: Alt + F2. Type gconf-editor
[10:37] <pawan> now
[10:37] <pawan> i  want to turn off hard disks
[10:37] <Stormx2> pawan: I know.
[10:37] <rodserling> anyone reccomend an irc application besides Xchat?
[10:37] <khelll> how to get my network ip??
[10:37] <jasperhax0r> im checking on another card with same chips
[10:38] <frySt> irssi, weechat for console
[10:38] <tmatix> pawan: hdparm
[10:38] <weston> does anyone have Avant-window-navigator installed?
[10:38] <Stormx2> khelll: LAN or WAN?
[10:38] <ranfow> join #java
[10:38] <Stormx2> tmatix: he means the desktop icons.
[10:38] <khelll> wan
[10:38] <boris_> currently im running dapper and i have iso file of ubuntu feisty is it possible to upgrade to it without losing my data ?
[10:38] <Stormx2> khelll: www.whatismyip.com
[10:38] <rodserling> weston, i did. it was too glitchy for me
[10:38] <gimpy> he meant lan
[10:38] <Calymos> Yo, anybody know if a trendnet TEW-424UB 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter has drivers yet?
[10:38] <gimpy> not wan
[10:38] <pawan> what hdparm
[10:38] <khelll> wan
[10:39] <khelll> ok and for the lan
[10:39] <Stormx2> ifconfig then
[10:39] <gimpy> thats for windows stormx2
[10:39] <Stormx2> pawan: What language do you normally speak?
[10:39] <gimpy> for nix
[10:39] <Stormx2> gimpy: No, ipconfig is for windows.
[10:39] <gimpy> Thats what I said
[10:40] <Akifemre> heya... how can i change default opener program for .php files?
[10:40] <gimpy> hes looking for nix command I believe
[10:40] <khelll> ipconfig : command not found
[10:40] <pawan> english
[10:40] <gabbarinho> hello
[10:40] <Stormx2> gimpy: It's also what I said, if you'd give me the courtousy of reading what I put.
[10:40] <rodserling> haha
[10:40] <grizm> khell, open console and type "ifconfig | grep "inet addr"
[10:40] <gabbarinho> ubuncu can *read* NTFS, right?
[10:40] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: And write, with an extra driver.
[10:41] <gabbarinho> ah
[10:41] <tmatix> pawan: you can use hdparm to actually turn off a physical hard disk, not what you want apparently
[10:41] <Stormx2> !ntfs-3g | gabbarinho
[10:41] <gabbarinho> I was wondering if I was going to need a large "shared" fat32 partition for my media files :)
[10:41] <ubotu> gabbarinho: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:41] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: I use a large shared ext3 partition for my media.
[10:41] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[10:41] <gabbarinho> windows can write to ext3?
[10:41] <gabbarinho> i didn't think xp even recognized it!
[10:42] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Extra driver required, but it's a non-issue.
[10:42] <gabbarinho> well, that's great
[10:42] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Steer clear of FAT32. Use either NTFS or ext3
[10:42] <gabbarinho> any advantages to using ext3 as the shared partition rather than ntfs?
[10:42] <Stormx2> I tend to use ext3 purely because I know it's open.
[10:42] <gabbarinho> because of the size limit, right?
[10:43] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: NTFS doesn't have a size limit.
[10:43] <Stormx2> Not a problematic one tho.
[10:43] <pawan> but i just dont want to display it on desktop
[10:43] <frySt> ntfs is one of the worst filesystems ever created and noone should use it :>
[10:43] <gimpy> ntfs is better that fat32
[10:43] <Stormx2> frySt: It's actually a bunch better than fat32.
[10:44] <Stormx2> pawan: Alt + F2. Type gconf-editor, there is an option in there to turn the icons off.
[10:44] <tmatix> gimpy: yeah, but what isn't? :)
[10:44] <frySt> :>
[10:44] <novato_br> how can I know if my ram is work in dual channel mode ?
[10:44] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: Two things to consider: a) NTFS puts stricter limits on characters in file names. b) ext3 is an open standard, so its a billion times easier to implement correctly.
[10:45] <Akifemre> heya... how can i change default application to open for .php files?
[10:45] <novato_br> how can I know if my ram is working in dual channel mode ?
[10:45] <Stormx2> !default | Akifemre
[10:45] <ubotu> Akifemre: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[10:45] <Stormx2> novato_br: We saw your question the first time.
[10:46] <gabbarinho> thanks for that advice, storm :)
[10:46] <tmatix> novato_br: your motherboard BIOS should tell you
[10:46] <weston> qqqwwwasasd.lknoijndwdLiunar
[10:46] <novato_br> sorry, Stormx2
[10:46] <pawan> where is the option
[10:46] <Calymos> In case I was ignored, I figured it out. So... Thanks for existing, in case I couldn't. I'll probably ask more later.
[10:46] <novato_br> i posted on wrong channel, the 2 question
[10:46] <Stormx2> pawan: Search for it yourself.
[10:47] <novato_br> tmatix, where?
[10:47] <novato_br> tmatix, where should MB bios tell me?
[10:47] <Stormx2> pawan: apps > nautilus > desktop. Uncheck "volumes_visible"
[10:48] <tmatix> novato_br: the BIOS is built into your computer's hardware.  you can usually access it by pressing delete or F1 or something when the computer boots
[10:48] <jusefina> anyone here use deluge??
[10:48] <gimpy> Later stormx2 learned alot from ya. I'll be back in about 8hrs. Take care all.
[10:48] <frySt> is there a way to get my gamepad working? its a ms sidewinder freestyle pro, unfortunately i lost the usb adapterpiece, so its gameport only.. my gameport is on soundblaster live
[10:48] <Stormx2> jusefina: #deluge might :)
[10:48] <Stormx2> gimpy: Byebye
[10:48] <jusefina> Stormx2: on freenode?
[10:48] <pawan> great
[10:48] <pawan> thanks
[10:48] <Stormx2> jusefina: Yeah.
[10:49] <tmatix> novato_br: i would probably restart the computer and just start mashing del and f1 :)
[10:49] <Taggard> !osx
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about osx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:49] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good OS X dual boot tutorial?
[10:49] <Stormx2> frySt: Might be worth running a search on www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:49] <Stormx2> !bootcamp
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootcamp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:50] <frySt> Stormx2  thats what i did 2hrs ago :(
[10:50] <Stormx2> Hmm.
[10:50] <WankusMusculus> hey guys, how do I turn off system beeps in xubuntu, it's very annoying!!
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: Aww sucks. I can't help, tho
[10:50] <frySt> seem to be fool proof howtos, and ppl repy and say 'worked for me' but not in my case :*(
[10:50] <frySt> thank u anyways ^^
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: Well, what issue are you having?
[10:50] <Stormx2> frySt: (with the guides)
[10:50] <novato_br> thx, tmatix
[10:51] <weston> does anyone know where to download wirelessassistant?
[10:51] <jamesdell> hi, I got this error after compiling my wifi card. http://pastebin.com/d232bf87d anyone howto get solve on this issue?
[10:51] <pawan> hi
[10:51] <frySt> they do not work for me.. there are no /dev/js or /dev/input/js nodes created
[10:51] <pawan> any new background for ubuntu
[10:51] <frySt> i even created some myself with mknode but still wont workl
[10:52] <frySt> and neither jscalibrate nor jstest nor the kcontrol recognise my gamepad
[10:52] <Stormx2> frySt: Hmm. Sounds like it's being put in a different place. Hold on
[10:52] <frySt> and that although i got all neccesary modules loaded
[10:52] <jamesdell> hi, I got this error after compiling my wifi card. http://pastebin.com/d232bf87d anyone howto get solve on this issue?
[10:52] <frySt> i also searched my whole /dev/ which took quite a qhile there was nothing useful in there
[10:52] <frySt> :(
[10:52] <Taggard> Anyone know how to install ubuntu on my imac?
[10:52] <Stormx2> !install | Taggard
[10:52] <ubotu> Taggard: 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
[10:52] <pawan> any new screen saver for ubuntu
[10:53] <grizm> wankus, open the file /etc/inputrc and add the following; set bell-style none
[10:53] <gabbarinho> any chance that the upcoming ubuntu will feature a more robust boot manager?
[10:53] <Frogzoo> !imac
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about imac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <Frogzoo> !mac
[10:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:53] <Taggard> Stormx2: Helpful apart from it doesn't mention anything about using an intel imac for an install
[10:53] <gimpii> hey stormx2 you use gmail through gabber?
[10:53] <frySt> whats wrong with GRUB?
[10:53] <gabbarinho> the popular xp/vista/ubuntu boot is a little tricky to do currently
[10:53] <WankusMusculus> thanks grizm!!
[10:54] <rodserling> yeah, GRUB is cool
[10:54] <gabbarinho> well, right now you have to go through two boot screens if you want to run vista
[10:54] <Stormx2> gimpii, not usually, but I have an account
[10:54] <gabbarinho> grub first, then the windows boot manager
[10:54] <Stormx2> Taggard, I don't think there it matters if it's an iMac? o.O
[10:54] <Taggard> Stormx2: It really does
[10:54] <Stormx2> Oh? Why so?
[10:54] <Taggard> Stormx2: Ubuntu doesn't like EFI
[10:55] <gimpii> Stormx2 what network do you use mostly?
[10:55] <Ademan> !envy
[10:55] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:55] <Taggard> And its really hard to get OS X to resize a partition without it destroying the whole disk
[10:55] <Stormx2> frySt: Unplug your JS, then: ls /dev > /tmp/before. Now plug it in, and run ls /dev > /tmp/after && diff /tmp/before /tmp/after
[10:55] <Stormx2> gimpii: MSN and IRC.
[10:55] <frySt> hax!
[10:55] <pawan> what is kubuntu
[10:56] <Stormx2> !kubuntu | pawan
[10:56] <ubotu> pawan: 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
[10:56] <Taggard> Why is poor Stormx2 pretty much manning the whole channel?
[10:56] <pawan> what is the difference between the two
[10:56] <Stormx2> Haha
[10:56] <Stormx2> I usually end up doing this ;-)
[10:56] <Taggard> pawan: One uses KDE, one uses GNOME.
[10:56] <Taggard> Its really a matter of opinion which is better..
[10:56] <pawan> i am using ubuntu
[10:56] <gimpii> well you can hit me up on MSN stormx2. bwangler@goowy.com
[10:56] <Taggard> pawan: You are on GNOME
[10:57] <novato_br> tmatix, plz, help me a little
[10:57] <gimpii> I kick gnomes in WoW
[10:57] <Taggard> pawan: You can have both if you like, but if your happy with Gnome theres no reason
[10:57] <pawan> now i am also installing kubuntu
[10:57] <novato_br> tmatix, it is a screen about cpuz: http://www.cjb.net/images.html?73079.png
[10:57] <gabbarinho> by the way
[10:57] <Taggard> pawan: why?
[10:57] <gabbarinho> I have a very new motherboard based on the nvidia 7050 chipset
[10:57] <pawan> might be some difference
[10:57] <gabbarinho> linux drivers are available but they're not included on the current live CD
[10:57] <avis> pawan you can install both by sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:58] <frySt> Stormx2  i havent tried yet, but i spose it wont work because of GAMEPORT.. not usb so there is no plug&play
[10:58] <gabbarinho> as a result, i can't seem to run the installation utility with a graphical interface
[10:58] <pawan> then there will bw two os or what
[10:58] <Taggard> pawan: Yes, you don't need to install kubuntu to use KDE.
[10:58] <avis> there will be two desktop environments pawan
[10:58] <Stormx2> frySt: It's purely seeing if ubuntu actually recognises that there is a joystick there.
[10:58] <Taggard> You can use both Gnome and KDE At the same time, if you wish
[10:58] <tmatix> novato_br: i don't know any linux equivalent of cpu-z, although there may be one.
[10:58] <avis> pawan you'd switch between the two in your login manager
[10:59] <pawan> cant both be used simultaneously
[10:59] <Ademan> gabbarinho: i suppose it might be worth getting the alternate install, i wouldn't have expected a motherboard compatibility issue to allow you to even boot though
[10:59] <Taggard> Yes, well not at the exact same time, but yes
[10:59] <frySt> Stormx2  it is not
[10:59] <Ademan> gabbarinho: so it boots with the liveCD? but xorg fails?
[10:59] <Taggard> avis: Hes install kubuntu and ubuntu, on a different partition I think
[10:59] <rodserling> hmm?
[10:59] <pawan> should i install it or not
[10:59] <Stormx2> frySt: The command returns nothing?
[10:59] <novato_br> tmatix, no, see the screenshot http://www.cjb.net/images.html?73079.png, on this screenshot have my info about ram / processor
[10:59] <gabbarinho> well i think the motherboard itself is supported - it's the integrated video that isn't
[11:00] <frySt> i.e. there is no diff btwn the two files
[11:00] <Ademan> pawan: instead, within your ubuntu partition you can just use synaptic to install kubuntu-desktop, which will let you have both on the same partition
[11:00] <avis> pawan well no need to install on another partition when you can swtich between gnome and KDE from the login manager
[11:00] <gabbarinho> "x" won't load
[11:00] <frySt> if it would create a node in /dev/ i had found it 2hrs ago :)
[11:00] <gabbarinho> the new nvidia drivers do support it, however
[11:00] <Ademan> gabbarinho: are you at that point right now? because i can get you past it
[11:00] <pawan> i used this command  sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[11:00] <gabbarinho> it just isn't included in feisty dawn, since it only came out a few weeks ago
[11:00] <Ademan> pawan: that should work fine
[11:00] <Stormx2> frySt: Well, looks like its unsupported at a kernel-level then :(
[11:00] <pawan> it is downloading
[11:01] <gabbarinho> not at the moment, ademan - i believe it asked me if i wanted to go into the console and tackle it
[11:01] <frySt> Stormx2  i got the proper kernel modules loaded... sidewinder gameport and emu10k-gp
[11:01] <pawan> but what will be the use of that
[11:01] <gabbarinho> but i am not that advanced a user, unfortunately
[11:01] <Stormx2> pawan: You should be using this: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:01] <avelino> alguien habla espaol
[11:01] <avis> if you cannot get X to load then i have used envy with great success basically downloads the latest nvidia driver from nvidia and recompiles your kernel for you
[11:01] <tmatix> novato_br: okay, well it looks nice enough, but it doesn't tell you anything about dual channel ram
[11:01] <frySt> still wont work thats really annoying :((
[11:01] <Ademan> gabbarinho: yeah, it SHOULD actually be fairly easy, i can walk you through it if you'd like
[11:01] <Stormx2> !es | avelino
[11:01] <ubotu> avelino: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:01] <avis> avelino, si,  #ubuntu-es
[11:01] <Ademan> !envy | avis
[11:01] <pawan> should i cancel this command then
[11:01] <gabbarinho> oh, that's great :)
[11:01] <ubotu> avis: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[11:02] <avis> i know what envy is i use it
[11:02] <avelino> avis
[11:02] <avelino> tu sabrias como liberar un movil por internet
[11:02] <Stormx2> avis; Well, you shouldn't.
[11:02] <avis> quieren que se va a #ubuntu-es
[11:02] <gabbarinho> how would that work?
[11:02] <avis> Stormx2, you advise not using envy ?
[11:02] <Ademan> gabbarinho: how would what work?
[11:02] <avelino> alguien sabe alguna pagina o programa para liberar moviles???
[11:02] <gabbarinho> this envy thing :)
[11:03] <Ademan> !envy | gabbarinho
[11:03] <ubotu> gabbarinho: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[11:03] <gabbarinho> it's already on the CD?
[11:03] <Stormx2> avis: Indeed. You should use the restricted drivers manager.
[11:03] <gabbarinho> I understand I can use it to load the nvidia drivers
[11:03] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: System > Administration > Restricted Drivers
[11:03] <Ademan> yes but it can break your system, i had to totally reinstall because of envy
[11:03] <Stormx2> gabbarinho: use that instead.
[11:03] <avis> ok Stormx2 i didn't know i'd get equal graphics support from the restricted drivers manager
[11:04] <gabbarinho> ah - well, it can't break my system since ubuntu isn't installed
[11:04] <avis> i think perhaps gabbarinho can't boot into X
[11:04] <Ademan> gabbarinho: i can walk you through starting X if you want
[11:04] <gabbarinho> yes :)
[11:04] <avelino> hola
[11:04] <avelino> hola
[11:04] <gabbarinho> thanks for the offer, ademan
[11:04] <avelino> alguien habla espaol
[11:05] <Ademan> yeah no problem
[11:05] <gabbarinho> that would be great, but i don't think i have the time to go through the installation before i go to work
[11:05] <Ademan> gabbarinho: want me to write instructions out real fast?
[11:05] <gabbarinho> sure, i would appreciate it :)
[11:06] <frySt> like edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf properly and do startx?
[11:07] <avis> what is a good sound card, that is better than 965G's chipsets onboard sound and supported under feisty ?
[11:09] <frySt> avis  i prefer terratec, but they can be expensive
[11:09] <Ademan> gabbarinho: http://rafb.net/p/YJBiZe69.html   you may want to write it down since it will probably be gone in a couple hours
[11:09] <frySt> atm i use an old creative sblive! player 1024
[11:09] <bcbooter> how do i mount an iso and install it without burning it???
[11:09] <avis> frySt, i'm rather happy just to get an answer really.  going to froogle how expensive they are
[11:09] <frySt> but still struggle to get my gamepad working :(
[11:09] <Stormx2> !iso | bcbooter
[11:09] <ubotu> bcbooter: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[11:10] <frySt> basically every non-onboard soundcard does the job if you dont need special sound-studio capacities xD
[11:10] <gabbarinho> fantastic stuff, ademan :)
[11:10] <gabbarinho> what is that site?
[11:11] <avis> frySt, do you think a common Audigy 2 value would be superior to the sound on a 965G ?
[11:11] <avelino> alguien sabe alguna pagina para liberar mobiles
[11:11] <Ademan> gabbarinho: just a site where you can paste text, that way you don't write a bunch of crap in the channel, it's usually used for code, but it works equally well for what i just did
[11:11] <gabbarinho> looks useful
[11:11] <frySt> id say so, everything > onboard
[11:11] <gabbarinho> i've often wanted to do things like that
[11:11] <bcbooter> what do i type in the mountpoint?
[11:11] <gabbarinho> write a message, make it available quickly and easily
[11:12] <avis> thats amazing i happen to have one from the days of old i had been searching for better audio.  going to put it in and see about getting around working.  thank you
[11:12] <Ademan> yeah
[11:12] <gabbarinho> well, thanks again - this looks simple enough
[11:12] <asdf> any one willing to help me out?
[11:12] <Frogzoo> asdf: we don't know
[11:12] <asdf> a little linux question?
[11:12] <frySt> asdf , that really depends if your going to ask your question :)
[11:13] <Ademan> good luck gabbarinho
[11:13] <asdf> i will
[11:13] <Frogzoo> asdf: you can skip the prelims & just ask your question
[11:13] <Ademan> !ask | asdf
[11:13] <ubotu> asdf: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:13] <asdf> when i switch my Resolution on my xubuntu i get a distorted top left corner
[11:13] <gabbarinho> well, gotta go now
[11:14] <gabbarinho> thanks again!
[11:14] <Frogzoo> asdf: you're overdriving your monitor - specify HorizSync & VertRefresh in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:14] <asdf> then even if i switch it back to default it is like a little distorted icon in the top left corner vertical strips
[11:15] <bcbooter> is ubuntu studio pretty good???
[11:15] <asdf> let me check that, Thanks, one sec
[11:16] <weston> what is a good desktop effects program?
[11:16] <weston> =stable
[11:16] <ari_stress> weston: compiz fusion
[11:16] <linxeh> bcbooter: a guy at work thinks so - I've got the packages installed on my ubuntu box, but haven't really played with it as my sound card will never be supported by linux
[11:16] <ari_stress> weston: see on youtube.com, search for 'compiz fusion'
[11:16] <weston> kk
[11:18] <riaal> if I use lsmod to show mods, how can I get more info about a specific module? Like nfs for example?
[11:18] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good Ubuntu on iMac tutorial?
[11:18] <intothevoid> Hi
[11:18] <intothevoid> anyone around ?
[11:18] <Taggard> intothevoid: No
[11:18] <harbingerkun> I have a folder with a vast number of files that need to be deleted. How do I remove them without spending hours upon hours of doing it manually? "rm" returns "bash: /bin/mv: Argument list too long"
[11:18] <riaal> intothevoid, nope
[11:18] <Taggard> Just a few hundred or so
[11:19] <intothevoid> yeah very fuuny stupid question
[11:19] <harbingerkun> I can't delete the folder that contains them itself as it is a system folder
[11:19] <Taggard> !ask
[11:19] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:19] <intothevoid> i am running compiz fusion and i need to know how can be set to invoke every time i login
[11:19] <intothevoid> i have to manually type in compiz --replace for the window manager to kick in
[11:19] <Frogzoo> riaal: the correct answer to your question is 'man bootparam' but I think you'd also want to try 'man -k nfs'
[11:19] <frySt> harbingerkun  tried rm -Rf?
[11:20] <Taggard> intothevoid: Could add that as a startup command
[11:20] <harbingerkun> frySt: Yes. Same issue.
[11:20] <intothevoid> hmn
[11:20] <Lord_Illidan> Hiya guys and gals
[11:20] <harbingerkun> Far too many files.
[11:20] <intothevoid> i thought maybe there is some way i can add it to the windows manager
[11:20] <frySt> :(
[11:20] <bcbooter> is there like a fruity loops type deal for linux???
[11:20] <Taggard> Lord_Illidan: Girls?
[11:21] <harbingerkun> frySt: Indeed. Nautilus freezes. So that's not a possibility either.
[11:21] <frySt> bcbooter  u could try ardour or the dynebolic live cd
[11:21] <Sinderking> heyall
[11:21] <bcbooter> ardour tells me Jack isnt running wut is jack?
[11:21] <Sinderking>  04.
[11:21] <Frogzoo> !info jack
[11:21] <ubotu> jack: Rip and encode CDs with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.1.1+cvs20050801-14 (feisty), package size 142 kB, installed size 656 kB
[11:22] <asdf> Frogzoo: hey i have xorg.config up
[11:22] <intothevoid> is there a cmd i can use to add compiz --replace to the start up ?
[11:22] <asdf> what am i looking for?
[11:22] <tupa> intothevoid, depends on your DE
[11:22] <Frogzoo> asdf: google my previous answer
[11:22] <NGG> ola
[11:23] <intothevoid> DE?
[11:23] <asdf> Frogzoo: this one ? asdf: you're overdriving your monitor - specify HorizSync & VertRefresh in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:23] <tupa> intothevoid: Desktop Environment
[11:23] <intothevoid> it boots into gnome sort of
[11:24] <intothevoid> then i go to the terminal and launch compiz fusion
[11:24] <tupa> intothevoid: gnome-session
[11:24] <khelll> is there any visiual tool for svn
[11:24] <XiXaQ> Isn't there a world map of ubuntu users somewhere?
[11:24] <frySt> flickr should have some... just a wild guess
[11:24] <tupa> khelll apt-cache search svn gui

[11:26] <ab3l>  hi there's a tool to edit a squashfs file without mounting it ?
[11:27] <jqg> How to defend DDOS attack? Help me!!!
[11:27] <frySt> riaal  modprobe -l
[11:27] <frySt> and modinfo
[11:27] <Happu> jqg: install firestarter and put it to block ping for a moment

[11:28] <ultrazauberer> hi all
[11:28] <vaineh> hi, anyone else having trouble connecting to gb.archive.ubuntu.com??

[11:30] <riaal> rausb0, thanks a lot
[11:30] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[11:30] <ultrazauberer> can anyone help me? i'm looking for a tool like php designer 2007 for linux
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> i doesn't find anything on google
[11:31] <tupa> ultrazauberer is it a WYSYWIG editor?
[11:31] <frySt> o_O
[11:31] <frySt> why keep ppl ignoring my help and ask again? :>
[11:31] <Happu> ultrazauberer: what does php designer do?
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> wtf ist a WYSYWIG editor?
[11:31] <jqg> Happu, it is same like shorewall? How to define the rule against DDOS???
[11:31] <frySt> what you see is what u get
[11:31] <ultrazauberer> php designer is a developer tool for php sources
[11:31] <Happu> jqg: it's an GUI for iptables
[11:32] <ultrazauberer> with auto-fill function for php commands
[11:32] <Happu> jqg: you can block pings and stuff from settings, you don't have to make a rule for it
[11:32] <ultrazauberer> i mean it completes commands while typing
[11:33] <ultrazauberer> but i just find it for win xp, but i wan't to use more linux for working
[11:33] <jqg> Happu, my server is ubuntu server no gui support and shorewall installed but I could't use it.
[11:33] <jqg> Happu, and I can ping my server well
[11:33] <tupa> ultrazauberer, mmm, don't remember if it supports command completion, but quanta is very nice
[11:33] <ab3l>  hi there's a tool to edit a squashfs file without mounting it ?
[11:33] <ultrazauberer> at work i use xampp and php designer 2007, but all under win xp
[11:34] <ultrazauberer> now i want to use an equal tool under ubuntu
[11:34] <Happu> jqg: then you have to look for iptables manual
[11:34] <jqg> Happu, but my apache server connection are exhausts by attack
[11:34] <Happu> jqg: but if you are running and server, you shouldn't block ping. (or is it in private use?)
[11:34] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: bluefish? quanta?
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> dimebar, tupa i will see it
[11:35] <LeoUA> hi2all
[11:35] <jqg> Happu ,a ruuning server shouldn't block ping?
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> now searching for these tools on google
[11:35] <ultrazauberer> thx
[11:35] <LeoUA> Guys, where GAIM sounds ate?
[11:35] <LeoUA> are
[11:35] <fdr> hi! I have my MBR (master boot record) overwritten -- is there a HOWTO that explains how to restore it?
[11:35] <sahil> i'm trying to convince a school to switch to linux their biggest argument is that the rest of the marketplace uses ms products how do you guys think i can deal with tis?
[11:35] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: also may wanna try the PHP plugin for eclipse.  Personally I use vim :)
[11:36] <fdr> !mbr
[11:36] <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
[11:36] <dimebar> sahil: set up a test machine with edubuntu, show them what it does, let the kids try it out
[11:36] <Happu> !iptables | jqg
[11:36] <ubotu> jqg: 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).
[11:36] <jqg> Happu,I found random IP connect in my apache log
[11:37] <jqg> Happu ,ok ,thanks a lot
[11:37] <Happu> jqg so you are getting DoS from one IP only?
[11:37] <sahil> dimebar: yes thats my first step
[11:37] <Happu> jqg: http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/howto/iptables-HOWTO-6.html
[11:37] <dimebar> sahil: my mum's classroom has 1 xp machine (supported) and 3 ubuntu machines and a suse machine - the kids all use the linux one cos it has more games :)
[11:37] <jqg> Happu ,random IP connections
[11:37] <ultrazauberer> quanta is for kde, can i use it under gnome?
[11:37] <frySt> i like geany
[11:38] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: yes.  it won't look 'native' but it will run fine.
[11:38] <Happu> jqg you should mark up to some file what commands did you run for IPtables so you can undo them later
[11:38] <ultrazauberer> thx
[11:38] <alecwh> My laptop doesn't have a "Shut Down" option when I click the button on the top. It has: Logout, Lock Screen, Switch User, Suspend, and Hibernate. No shut down. :(
[11:38] <alecwh> How do I fix this?
[11:38] <jqg> Happu,ok,thx
[11:38] <khelll> how to give the current user all permissions in the system
[11:39] <Happu> jqg: no problem
[11:39] <alecwh> !sudo > khell
[11:39] <frySt> khelll  doing this permanently is a very bad idea, temporary superuser powers can be given with sudo
[11:39] <bullgard4> What does 'FF' stand for in /proc/acpi/button/power/PWRF/info "type: Power Button (FF)"?
[11:40] <KillerKiwi2005_> any one know how to stop power manager adjusting the screen brightness?
[11:40] <frySt> sudo <command> for one time execution and sudo su to become root
[11:40] <vaineh> hi, anyone else having trouble connecting to gb.archive.ubuntu.com??
[11:40] <frySt> vaineh  i cant get there neither
[11:40] <arcad3> !postfix
[11:40] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[11:40] <dimebar> ultrazauberer: geany may also be worth a look
[11:40] <rausb0> vaineh: i cannot connect it
[11:41] <vaineh> ok thanks, not just me then
[11:41] <khelll> what do u mean by temporary
[11:41] <khelll> only for the current open console
[11:41] <khelll> ?
[11:41] <frySt> i mean you are really not advised to do everything as a superuser/admin/root
[11:41] <bogcardh> irc.mugimugi.org
[11:42] <frySt> but only one time command excecutions, by prefixing a 'sudo'
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> thank you dimebar, i'm already downloading and installing these tools
[11:42] <khelll> yes but every thing i try to do am being askd for permissions
[11:42] <bogcardh> irc.mugimugi
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> there must be an alternative for me to use
[11:42] <ultrazauberer> so many tools
[11:42] <khelll> and am the owner of this pc , so i want to behave freely
[11:42] <frySt> but that is not secure
[11:43] <frySt> ultrazauberer  there are even some plugins for gedit
[11:43] <khelll> ok what to do then
[11:43] <jqg> Happu,ping will block my web server???It will create a http connection to my apache?
[11:43] <frySt> have a look at the development section of synaptic package manager
[11:43] <khelll> am newbie to linxu
[11:43] <Happu> khelll: if you are going to run only as root, you won't be the owner of your PC much longer
[11:43] <Happu> jqg: yes
[11:43] <rausb0> khelll: go on, break your system... working as root all the time is a really bad idea.
[11:43] <frySt> khelll  u can use gksu for gui (alt+f2 and run gksu) or u can open a terminal and type sudo <command>
[11:44] <jqg> Happu,what principle?Can you refer it for me?
[11:44] <khelll> in fact some visiual tools like rapidsvn never works
[11:44] <frySt> like you want to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or something else that u cant do as normal user u need to write 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[11:44] <khelll> it keeps giving permission deny error
[11:44] <Happu> jqg: thats why you shouldn't block ping. You just don't have a much options if you are gettind Dossed do you?
[11:44] <Happu> jqg: I'm not very good with those things, so I can't really tell how it works :/
[11:45] <frySt> you are aware that you need to re-enter ur user password with both gksu and sudo?
[11:45] <frySt> its pretty straightforeward
[11:45] <khelll> what is gksu
[11:45] <khelll> how to run it
[11:46] <frySt> alt+f2 pops up the run dialogue and u can enter gksu there
[11:46] <frySt> or you can use the menu entry.. i forgot the excat location .. maybe admin tools maybe asccessories
[11:47] <frySt> it says "run as different user"
[11:47] <frySt> but in general its more convenient to have a terminal open and just use sudo
[11:47] <khelll> ok
[11:48] <Happu> terminal is perfect to configure your system
[11:48] <khelll> ah
[11:48] <vaineh> should apt-get be using a mirror or something if gb.archive.ubuntu.com is not connecting? apt-get just fails - connection timed out, unable to fetch some archives etc...
[11:48] <khelll> i got that to work now
[11:48] <khelll> thanks alto
[11:48] <khelll> alot
[11:48] <frySt> :>
[11:49] <frySt> youre welcome
[11:49] <asdf> Frogzoo: got it. thanks a ton
[11:49] <Frogzoo_> asdf: hope that works for you
[11:50] <Taggard> Does anyone know a good way to dual boot Ubuntu with OS X and/or a good way to reformat a partition without destroying the rest of the drive?
[11:50] <asdf> frogzoo: just rebooting now, moment of truth
[11:50] <frySt> i never touched a mac, but i heard of this great bootloader (is it bootcamp) and that it works fine with it
[11:51] <asdf> frogzoo: any idea about this acpi error message on boot i get?

[11:56] <ceil420> Fry Street? of Denton? :o
[11:56] <newbienik> Romnous, youe best bet is the samba website www.samba.org, there are some great examples to follow in there too
[11:56] <frySt> ehe
[11:56] <Romnous> thanks newbienik :)
[11:56] <dvm> i have download the dsl-n. How can i install it on USB drive? Please refer me some URLs
[11:56] <ceil420> frySt, thanks o/
[11:56] <frySt> actually its just a random hit on the keyboard, my nick :>
[11:57] <Frogzoo_> Romnous: -> samba.org
[11:58] <Romnous> thanks guys; it's over here!: http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch04.html
[11:58] <ceil420> frySt, Fry Street = what used to be the "happening part of town" in Denton, where all the college kids hung out. it recently got bought out and they're makin' a strip mall or something ;x
[11:58] <khelll> how to install rmagick
[11:58] <frySt> wmahah
[11:58] <rodserling> java is a pain to install for me
[11:59] <cyphase> what kind of frame-rates are people getting with compiz fusion, and according to what?
[11:59] <howlingmadhowie> i've just finally really understood exactly why gnu and free software. something just went click in my head.
[11:59] <Helmi> does anyone know of a text editor that counts words live? so while i'm typing the text i see a display saying "xyz words"?
[11:59] <rodserling> why what?
[12:00] <frySt> Helmi  basically every texteditor does this i believe
[12:00] <Helmi> frySt, really? where is the display? i only see line numbers and stuff but no word count
[12:00] <jetscreamer> i think he means running count, displayed at all times
[12:00] <ceil420> nano doesn't
[12:00] <frySt> ah lol noo only lines and cols
[12:00] <frySt> not words
[12:00] <howlingmadhowie> Helmi: single threaded applications won't do this. you may find a multi-threaded text editory which does this
[12:00] <jetscreamer> word count
[12:00] <frySt> sorry for that :>
[12:01] <Iwizzard> How do I get ubuntu to run the command "sudo hidd --server --search" att startup?. Tried to do it via Sessions but nothing happened
[12:01] <Helmi> not a problem, frySt
[12:01] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[12:01] <howlingmadhowie> rodserling: well, what the point of gnu is. what rms has been trying to do. it suddenly makes perfect sense to me
[12:01] <Sinderking> yawnnnn
[12:01] <drcode> hi all
[12:02] <drcode> is there some ubuntu release for server?
[12:02] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: have a look at /etc/rc.d
[12:02] <drcode> I am looking for console only
[12:02] <Wermut> Which part of the file system is necessary for bootup process and GRUB? Only /boot?
[12:02] <howlingmadhowie> drcode: there is an ubuntu server edition
[12:02] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: no but I shall look now
[12:02] <Sinderking> hey drcode
[12:02] <drcode> realy
[12:02] <drcode> its open source also?
[12:02] <rodserling> howlingmadhowie, share your enlightenment :D
[12:03] <jqg> Happu,another question,I modify the value of /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all ,but after reboot it is recovered!
[12:03] <Helmi> does anyone know a way to use key-shortcuts to functions in gedit not already set with a key combo? like the document statistics (that includes word count)
[12:03] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: there's also somewhere in $HOME/.gnome (i think) a directory called autostart, where you can add commands to be carried out as soon as your windows manager starts
[12:03] <drcode> howlingmadhowie: what link?
[12:03] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: I dont seme to have a file called that, gets a blank txt page
[12:04] <Iwizzard> howlingmadhowie: ok, shall look into that aswell
[12:04] <Happu> jqg: hmm... So you didin't try with command "sudo iptables..."? There must be some file to override the original file
[12:04] <howlingmadhowie> drcode: havea  look at the options here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[12:05] <Wermut> Which part of the file system is necessary for bootup process and GRUB? Only /boot? Can I delete everything else?
[12:05] <Frogzoo_> Wermut: to boot to multiuser you'll need /boot, /, & /usr
[12:05] <jqg> Happu,no,it seems like simpler with icmp_echo_ignore_all ;)
[12:05] <rodserling_> hey
[12:06] <Happu> jqg: if running the command trough the terminal doesn't help you, you're on your own :/ I don't know what file rewrites it
[12:06] <Tr3z0> I'm not sure if any of the guys that helped me out yesterday are about the channel, right now, but I'm the guy who's nick yesterday was [T] ree and was fighting the losing battle with getting his wireless network adapter to work on Ubuntu.
[12:06] <howlingmadhowie> Iwizzard: hang on, i think my autostart idea is the same as your sessions. that may not be the best idea. have a look at rc.d :)
[12:06] <jqg> Happu,thax
[12:06] <Tr3z0> Well, today I come bearing a screenshot of the errors I got consistently after talking to you guys.
[12:06] <Tr3z0> http://www.abstract-designs.com/files/Screenshot.png
[12:06] <Happu> jqg: maybe someone knows ;)
[12:06] <Frogzoo_> Wermut: just deleting stuff you don't know what it is is gonna mess up in interesting ways
[12:06] <Tr3z0> Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix these errors?
[12:07] <Wermut> Frogzoo: I am giving the Computer away and wanted to shrink the Ubuntu partition to a mininum size and then hide GRUB boot menu
[12:07] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: you're missing header files.
[12:08] <Tr3z0> Where could I get some
[12:08] <Tr3z0> ?
[12:09] <frySt> would not re-installing ubuntu with a minimal setup be more convenient?
[12:10] <Tr3z0> I had JUST -actually- installed Ubuntu, then went about trying to use the archive I got from the Packages list of Ubuntu's website. It gave me those errors. For some reason, ndiswrappers wasn't listed in Synaptic. I'm not sure why...
[12:10] <howlingmadhowie> !pastebin
[12:10] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:10] <pawan_> hi
[12:11] <frySt> hm, ndiswrapper really should be installed right form the start, iirc
[12:11] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: can you try this?: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31887/
[12:11] <Tr3z0> That's what everyone was telling me. But it wasn't there.
[12:13] <bullgard4> What does 'FF' stand for in /proc/acpi/button/power/PWRF/info "type: Power Button (FF)"?
[12:13] <Calymos> I, unsurprisingly, have a question. I have a Trendnet USB WLAN thingy, and the "drivers" needed by the system to use it, but I can't overwrite the files. Any ideas?
[12:13] <howlingmadhowie> Tr3z0: oo, compiling and installing ndiswrapper from source isn't easy. it may be easier to find out why it isn't in your apt-cache
[12:14] <Happu> Tr3z0: what wlan card are you trying to get to work?
[12:14] <Tr3z0> D-link DWL-G520M
[12:15] <Happu> ok
[12:16] <Happu> Tr3z0: did you try madwifi?
[12:17] <Tr3z0> Did I try what?
[12:17] <Happu> madwifi driver
[12:17] <Tr3z0> For the record, guys, I'm a complete Ubuntu noob.

[12:18] <Happu> Tr3z0: madwifi.org
[12:18] <frySt> is it about microsoft being OK of piracy in china because windows needs less cd-rs than linux?
[12:18] <frySt> so bigger user-base

[12:18] <lightning18> SM56 PCI Modem? HELP PLEASE for Ubuntu Feisty Fawn
[12:18] <alex_> exit
[12:19] <alex_> quit
[12:19] <nox-Hand> alex_: fail :)
[12:19] <nox-Hand> What eth is WLAN?
[12:19] <lightning18> please help me
[12:19] <Happu> nox-Hand: not eth, it's wlan0 or something like it
[12:19] <frySt> iwconfig
[12:20] <lightning18> please help me
[12:21] <Calymos> How do I get root access so I can overwrite config files? I found drivers for my WLAN usb thingy, but I can't update the existing ones...
[12:21] <lightning18> anybody here?
[12:22] <howlingmadhowie> lightning18: it looks like you have a winmodem there
[12:23] <boris_> is compiz installed in dapper ubuntu ?
[12:24] <nox-Hand> Happu: I found it on eth1 :) Thanks though =D
[12:24] <haha> haha
[12:24] <haha> i love ubuntu
[12:24] <Happu> nox-Hand: is that even possible :D
[12:25] <Happu> nox-Hand: but good for you :)
[12:25] <nox-Hand> Happu: No idea! =D It is probably some evil spawn of the devil, but it JustWorks(tm)
[12:25] <Calymos> Anybody know the answer to my question? I have no idea how to run with Sudo...
[12:25] <Happu> nox-Hand: it's all that matters isn't it :)
[12:25] <kenan> haha : I want to love ubuntu too
[12:26] <nox-Hand> Always, Happu, always.
[12:26] <Happu> Calymos: I didn't even understand it
[12:26] <grizm> lightning18, it looks like only suse, mandrake and fedora have support for sm56 modem http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm
[12:26] <Tree> Ok, back
[12:26] <Calymos> Oh. I'm trying to update my zd1211 files, so I can use my usb wlan thingy, but I can't overwrite them.
[12:27] <Tree> urgh
[12:27] <Happu> Calymos: is it some kernel module?
[12:27] <Calymos> Er... I have no idea.
[12:27] <Happu> Calymos: type modinfo zd1211
[12:28] <Happu> Calymos: does it say anything?
[12:28] <Calymos> I'm using my windows right now, because I can't get on with my usb...
[12:29] <Calymos> If it helps, the file is located at    lib/firmware/something...
[12:29] <spl0it> I'm having a problem trying to run k3b... when I start k3b it dies on the splash screen - with 'drive not ready for command' and the drive it's throwing the error on is hdd (my old cdrw), my new dvdrw is hdc, anyway I can tell it to ignore that device? or whatever? I tried turning off my old cdrw from bios but that didn't seem to help - any assistance would be appreciated
[12:30] <Calymos> Also, the thingy I'm using (or trying to) is a TrendNet TEW-424UB .
[12:30] <Lightenix> hello,  anyone can tell me if this device ( /dev/.static/dev/parport0 ) is the device user called dl8dtl here http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=46305&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=20&sid=04df37630d0544c74c5d0bc7101df4fd is talking about?

[12:31] <b0b> hi ! could you help me ? i cannot change my resolution under console mode with my intel graphic card (x3100gfx). i put video=intelfb:mode=1024x768-32@60 in /boot/grub/menu.lst (kernel line) and have no effect and error. i'm trying to load the module manually -> modprobe intelfb mode=1024x768-32@60 and have the same. i decide to use the tool -> "fbset" to force the resolution ... and when i try to run them i get this error -> "open 
[12:31] <shadow_lightning> yes i was using a winmodem
[12:31] <shadow_lightning> a SM56 PCI Modem
[12:32] <shadow_lightning> how to install that in ubuntu 7.04
[12:33] <howlingmadhowie> grizm: he could use alien to make a deb package of the rpm
[12:33] <grizm> I don't know, the packages are kernel-specific
[12:33] <shadow_lightning> please help
[12:33] <shadow_lightning> me
[12:34] <b0b> help me please
[12:34] <shadow_lightning> please help me
[12:34] <Happu> b0b: did you select intel driver?
[12:35] <Happu> b0b: I needed to get gutsy for my x3000
[12:35] <DjViper> b0b: try writing out your problem over more than on line
[12:36] <Lightenix> anyone can tell me where is located parport?
[12:36] <stuart-> is it normal to have ubuntu run a little 'sluggish' compared to XP running a little smoother on desktop?
[12:37] <PriceChild> stuart-, "sluggish" is a matter of opinion.
[12:37] <PriceChild> stuart-, I'd say ubuntu would be more responsive
[12:37] <Happu> stuart-: I don't think so. Do you have graphic driver installed?
[12:37] <soundray> stuart-: no. This is typically caused by some process hogging CPU time.
[12:38] <stuart-> yup. nvidia is working fine. but i find the responsiveness a lil slow on ubuntu. but that's just minor things like minimizing things, changing windows, etc.
[12:38] <stuart-> in terms of program processing, ubuntu is more stable
[12:39] <shadow_lightning> my modem please? help
[12:39] <Happu> stuart-: what prosessor do you have?
[12:39] <user__> daniel
[12:40] <Calymos> Ooh, is it possible to use the existing windows drivers to run my device? Anybody have a guess?
[12:40] <stuart-> Happu, old crap. p667. but comparison is done on the same system
[12:40] <Happu> stuart-: ok, so it should be well supported
[12:41] <dWho> hi
[12:41] <stuart-> and it's not a particular WM or anything. to me, linux just is always slightly slugger than what i used to feel on XP. one that that doesn't let me down is it's slow and steady. so kinda like a tradeoff
[12:41] <grizm> shadow, there are drivers available for your modem, but they are precompiled for specific distributions. You'lll have the best chance if you install Mandrake 10 and download the driver for your modem from here: http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm
[12:42] <stuart-> but i've ditched windows entirely anyways so, unless i'm a crazy gamer, i won't be going back
[12:42] <fNatiC`> hi ppl
[12:42] <frySt> ehe
[12:42] <shadow_lightning> grizm: thanks, but i don't have mandrake
[12:42] <fNatiC`> my sound card is Realtek and i my buffer doesnt work
[12:43] <dWho> does anyone knows where I can get a good free file hosting for my small application so everyone can download it and use it...
[12:43] <fNatiC`> only the headphones.. and on the volume control there is only Headphones selected
[12:43] <fNatiC`> O.o
[12:43] <Happu> dWho: filefront is ok for small files
[12:43] <spl0it> how do I disable a cdrom device?
[12:43] <tupa> dWho: why does everybody wants more for less :P
[12:43] <tupa> dWho: rapidshare?
[12:44] <dWho> i would like to contribute to the community so I made a gui program for ffmpeg so everyone can convert a/v for free using gui
[12:44] <soundray> dWho: you might want to look at http://savannah.nongnu.org/
[12:44] <Calymos> Happu: I'm gonna go try that modinfo thing, what might I be looking for?
[12:44] <tupa> spl0it what is "disable for you"
[12:45] <tupa> aah, good ol' savana
[12:45] <grizm> shadow, here are the mandrake download pages ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/official/iso/10.2/i586/
[12:45] <shadow_lightning> i nid the help of the CRAZY PROGRAMMERS OUT THERE
[12:45] <spl0it> well k3b is trying to use hdd (my old cdrw) and the system is hanging because of it, I disable that device in my bios, but it still tries to use it... so I want to disable the device so I can use k3b (proper device is hdc - my dvdrw)
[12:45] <shadow_lightning> grizm: thanks for the link, i'll try to look for it
[12:45] <Happu> Calymos: type modinfo and the name of that thing you wanted to see
[12:46] <Happu> Calymos: if it gives some info about it, it's and kernel module
[12:46] <Happu> Calymos: kernel modules can be removed and you can install the new one
[12:46] <tupa> spl0it, that's might not be OS problem, but k3b
[12:46] <Calymos> So I'd be able to remove it, and put the new one in?
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: yes
[12:47] <soundray> spl0it: try 'gksudo k3bsetup' -- there might be an option to tell k3b to ignore the drive.
[12:47] <shadow_lightning> i nid to compile the driver for SM56 PCI Modem but there is an error?
[12:47] <Calymos> How would I do that?
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: modprobe -R <module>
[12:47] <Happu> Calymos: with sudo of course
[12:48] <Happu> Calymos: sorry, its actually lower case r
[12:48] <Calymos> so it'd be sudo modprobe -r zd1211?
[12:48] <Happu> yes
[12:48] <Calymos> ok
[12:48] <Happu> but check first if it's a module
[12:49] <spl0it> soundray - thanks
[12:49] <Calymos> Ok, just to make sure, I'll go to terminal, type modinfo zd1211, and if there is info, type the rest of that?
[12:49] <soundray> Happu, Calymos: zd1211rw probably
[12:49] <Calymos> ?
[12:50] <spl0it> soundray: nothing started with that command after I authenticated
[12:51] <_nnx_> I reinstalled udev and now I'm getting an utter cascade of errors.  Things SEEM to be working fine, however, but there's just a huge cascade of them when I start up the system.  What do I do about this?
[12:51] <spl0it> ah k3bsetup doesn't appear to exist
[12:51] <spl0it> I gotta get to work -  bbl
[12:51] <nicolas_> Hi, I've got a Davicom Semiconductor 21x4x DEC-Tulip compatible 10/100 Ethernet pci card but it doesn't work. I've googled and all I found was old info about the tulip and dmfe modules (they all said to unload tulip and load dmfe, but that was fixed in dapper).
[12:51] <nicolas_> How do I get it to work?
[12:51] <shadow_lightning> grizm: i a'm looking for an external modem, and i found US Robotics 56K Message Modem,  IS THAT FINE WITH UBUNTU 7.04
[12:52] <Happu> Calymos: if the command doesn't give any output, typi lsmod and see if there is something like zd1211rw
[12:52] <Happu> Calymos: then remove it and update to the new one
[12:53] <Calymos> Do I need to use sudo to move files in there?
[12:53] <Calymos> the firmware place?

[12:54] <Calymos> What would I type for that?
[12:55] <Happu> Calymos: did you install the new driver already?
[12:55] <jonah> would anyone be kind enough to send me ghamachi or give me another mirror, their website has been down for a week!
[12:55] <soundray> shadow_lightning: don't repeat please and don't use CAPS, if someone knows, they will answer.
[12:55] <Lustblader> shadow_lightning: look in the cd they give whether they have drivers for linux
[12:55] <Calymos> No, I can't do anything yet; still on windows. I need to reboot to linux, but then I can't get online
[12:55] <Calymos> only one computer, see...
[12:56] <Ward> Hi, i've got an external monitor plugged in to my laptop, so my second screen is right of my laptop screen. I'm experiencing one annoying problem: my mouse pointer looks like a big square on my external monitor
[12:56] <shadow_lightning> Lustblader: thanks, what cd
[12:56] <Happu> Calymos: too bad :/ Well I can't help much futher because I don't know anything about the module you are going to install, if it's even a module
[12:56] <crolle17> i changed the user by su -l postgres, but then autocompleting isn't available. is that a bug?
[12:56] <Gentine> Ward: Are you using the restricted nvidia drivers?
[12:57] <Calymos> Happu: Would it help if I sent you the link I got the driver at?
[12:58] <Gentine> Does anyone know the  name of the ubuntu discussion (not help) channel?
[12:58] <Ward> Gentine: no the restricted ati drivers
[12:59] <Frogzoo_> georg_s: #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <Gentine> Ward: that might be your problem, I'm sure you're aware ubuntu doesn't play nice with ati as it is... hmm, so it's only like that on your second, monitor?
[12:59] <Frogzoo_> Gentine: #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <Ward> Gentine: yes it is
[12:59] <Happu> Calymos: let's try :)
[12:59] <Gentine> Frogzoo: thanks
[12:59] <Ward> Gentine: let my try the opensource driver - 'ati' it's called, right?
[12:59] <jonah> hi has anyone got the ghamachi binary they could send me or upload someplace for me please, the website has been down for a week and can't find it anywhere

[01:01] <metbsd> you need luck to setup irda, bluetooth and stuff on linux
[01:01] <Ward> Gentine: let me try the opensource drivers - brb
[01:01] <Gentine> Ward: alright.
[01:01] <Happu> Calymos: you should print that page
[01:02] <Happu> Calymos: there is also encryption guide
[01:02] <nicolas_> Hi, I've got a Davicom Semiconductor 21x4x DEC-Tulip compatible 10/100 Ethernet pci card but it doesn't work. I've googled and all I found was old info about the tulip and dmfe modules (they all said to unload tulip and load dmfe, but that was fixed in dapper). How do I get it to work?
[01:03] <Nahi> can someone help me with a battery problem on a laptop running kde ?
[01:03] <stuart-> is there any diff between intel and amd on linux
[01:03] <Calymos> Happu: Encryption guide? To close off my connection to others, or get into it?
[01:03] <Lustblader> stuart-: i don think so
[01:03] <Gentine> stuart-: No.
[01:03] <Frogzoo_> stuart-: not as you'd notice
[01:03] <stuart-> cool. feel like changing systems
[01:03] <jekson> i try lspci but i don't find anything similar to IrDA
[01:03] <jekson> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31893/
[01:03] <Frogzoo_> stuart-: some of the cpu throttling maybe
[01:04] <Calymos> Happu: So it is in fact a module?
[01:04] <Happu> Calymos: to close your connection. You don't have to use it if you don't want. It's in the part 3 of the guide. If you don't have printer be sure you can acces that guide from your linux (save it to disk or something like that)
[01:04] <Happu> Calymos: yes, it's an driver module
[01:04] <kidbuntu> can someone help me. I'm getting an error message of "INTERNAL ERROR - failed to initialized HAL"
[01:04] <Calymos> Happu: Thanks for the help, it means quite a bit to me.
[01:04] <B-rabbit> one quicki question:would you prefer to to install firestarter or guarddog?
[01:04] <alesan> hi
[01:04] <Happu> Calymos: I have been there :) No problem and good luck
[01:04] <alesan> how was the way to trigger the bot to give me info about the startup logo?
[01:05] <Happu> B-rabbit: firestarter is easy
[01:05] <Frogzoo_> gah - firestarter leaves you with a pretty unreadable ruleset
[01:05] <shadow_lightning> grizm: i thank you very much for your help!!! ;-)
[01:05] <Happu> Frogzoo_: isn't that what easy GUIs do ;)
[01:05] <kidbuntu> and can't access my System ----> Administration--------> "Services"
[01:06] <Frogzoo_> B-rabbit: the iptables ruleset isn't that hard

[02:09] <Toma-> And then, you might get a kernel panic
[02:09] <Happu> neol: msg nickserv identy password
[02:09] <PrimoTurbo> Toma_: have u ever compiled it yourself?
[02:09] <CheshireViking> PrimoTurbo, the only time i've compiled a kernel, it too about 20 minutes on a 6 year old machine
[02:09] <david__> hello
[02:09] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: yep
[02:09] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: ~30 mins if youre lucky
[02:09] <PrimoTurbo> how much time in minutes does it take aprox?
[02:10] <Toma-> could be an hour tho
[02:10] <Nooobie> So... I installed Ubuntu Feisty... Used the alternative image... Didn't work regurarly... So I tried installing the server part without the graphic interface...

[02:11] <guyvdb_> Hi, i have installed the restricted nvidia drivers. How do i make the changes to xorg.conf needed. I seen to remember a command for doing this instead of manualy editing xorg.conf
[02:11] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: hahaha............
[02:11] <minhvu> swmiller6 : how can I test ?
[02:11] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: um what are you compiling in there before you melt your cpu?
[02:11] <minhvu> swmiller6 : how can I fix it ?
[02:11] <PrimoTurbo> just some custom device code

[02:12] <neol> Happu, checking...
[02:12] <swmiller6> minhvu: check your permissions on the /tmp folder should be owned by root but writable to all
[02:13] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: good luck. btw custom kernel problems shouldnt be reported to launchpad, obviously
[02:13] <minhvu> how do I check ?
[02:14] <swmiller6> minhvu: right click the folder and click the permissions tab
[02:14] <PrimoTurbo> I was joking ofcourse I am acctually just compiling the vanilla kernel with Con Kolivas's patch for desktop responsivness

[02:15] <PrimoTurbo> I must say the kernel has not even compiled yet and Ubuntu is already twice as fast
[02:15] <minhvu> what must I do ?

[02:18] <minhvu> and k3b
[02:18] <event> hi all
[02:18] <Toma-> PrimoTurbo: just to be certain, make an average of how fast firefox loads with 'time firefox' then test it out after you have compiled your new kernel
[02:18] <minhvu> swmiller6 : I can not remember all
[02:18] <PrimoTurbo> Toma-: Will do thanks for the tip
[02:18] <wehttamb> idleone: how can i do that?
[02:18] <westguy> I have install ClamAV where can I find the launcher or shortcut?
[02:18] <khelll> why the move to trash is not active for some links
[02:19] <IdleOne> wehttamb, in your router settings. see your router manual for that
[02:19] <zyth> westguy, why do you have clamav installed anyways?
[02:19] <minhvu> swmiller6 : but in error message there are a line ' Missing Xvnkb core '
[02:19] <westguy> zyth: protection for samba server
[02:19] <IdleOne> zyth, to protect against the OSX virii of course :)
[02:19] <zyth> westguy, ah okay makes sense
[02:19] <zyth> IdleOne, lol
[02:19] <wehttamb> idleone: can i change what port vnc listens on?
[02:19] <swmiller6> minhvu: I am not sure I hate to take you down the wrong path and make it worse sorry
[02:20] <IdleOne> wehttamb, maybe I am not certain
[02:20] <wehttamb> ok
[02:20] <khelll> why the move to trash is not active for many folders
[02:20] <IdleOne> wehttamb, lookup vnc FAQ see if that gives you any help
[02:20] <wehttamb> ok
[02:20] <wehttamb> thanks
[02:20] <IdleOne> khelll, what folders?
[02:20] <minhvu> swmiller6 : OK ! nut I need you show me some things what I can do to fix it
[02:21] <minhvu>  swmiller6 : OK ! but I need you show me some things what I can do to fix it
[02:21] <khelll>  /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/
[02:21] <IdleOne> khelll, use sudo rm
[02:22] <khelll>  am using the xserver
[02:22] <khelll> to make it easy
[02:22] <Gentine> Anyone know how to install a divx plugin for firefox?

[02:22] <Rimers> Hi all, anyone got some wicked usb troubleshooting hints i can try? got a hauppauge nova-t-500 that wont get recognised
[02:22] <Gentine> thanks.
[02:24] <frySt> http://www.linuxarkivet.se/mlists/linux-kernel/0311/msg03124.html
[02:24] <frySt> i got sorta the same problem
[02:24] <molkko> my webcam kind of works but I would like adjust exposure etc parameters. I suppose its about setting driver parameters. how can i find out what parameters can be adjusted? how to adjust them? lsmod? modprobe?
[02:24] <frySt> there must be a soluting after four years?
[02:24] <westguy> How to update clamAv?
[02:25] <Rimers> molkko: what cam is it?
[02:25] <molkko> Rimers, logitechquickcam
[02:26] <Rimers> molkko: okay, what driver is it using? pwc?
[02:26] <molkko> no gspca
[02:26] <Rimers> okay, give me a sec and ill see if i can find a hint
[02:27] <NET||abuse> jeeeesus!! something is making my machine go absolutley insane... cpu load through the roof,, everything just hangs for about 3 minutes.. sucks..
[02:27] <molkko> ok tnx in advance. but i am also more generally interested in if you can find out what parameters of a module are available for me to adjust and how to do it
[02:27] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: top
[02:27] <TTilus> NET||abuse: top
[02:28] <TTilus> ;)
[02:28] <frySt> aha
[02:28] <frySt> i found the solution
[02:28] <frySt> http://www.linuxarkivet.se/mlists/linux-kernel/0311/msg03127.html
[02:28] <NET||abuse> yeh, i've looked things were jumping up and down like crazy,, granted i'm using compiz-fusion, and kiba dock which i compiled myself ;)
[02:28] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: hit P to sort by % cpu
[02:28] <TTilus> NET||abuse: see what eats up cpu (if anything) and mem (if anything)
[02:29] <Rimers> molkko: check this page out, think that should help ya. http://mxhaard.free.fr/download.html
[02:29] <TTilus> NET||abuse: or < and > to select next or previous sort-by column
[02:30] <NET||abuse> yup,, have that done already, it was kiba dock i think and java,, running zend studio while sitting on compiz-fusion and kiba-dock was hissey fitting a bit.. killed everything
[02:30] <Pici> NET||abuse: htop is easier to use and has more features imo.
[02:30] <westguy> any 30 and above top with place now?
[02:30] <NET||abuse> nope, all down to 8/9%
[02:31] <Plantain> If I plug in a SATA disk, how can I mount it?
[02:31] <Plantain> (Without rebooting?)
[02:31] <esteem_> When using DD to take the image of my CF card (compact flash)... People have told me that I am supposed to un-mount the volume first. This is all well and good, but in reality - when I rightclick my CF card on the desktop to unmount, then proceed to take the image, linux (or rather, DD) can no longer even see the SDF device and I am unable to go further with it
[02:32] <TTilus> tmispell does not work, i've installed tmispell-voikko and $ tmispell -dsuomi testfile just exits with no errormessage, emacs says "ispell exited with code 255"
[02:32] <Rimers> Plantain: as far as i know SATA is not hotplug unless you have a special controller that supports it
[02:32] <drewniak> i cant mount my hard disk, anyone can help me?
[02:32] <drewniak> im getting info
[02:32] <drewniak> Volume is scheduled for check. Please boot into Windows TWICE, or
[02:32] <drewniak> use the 'force' mount option.
[02:32] <Plantain> Rimers: I thought that was a key feature?
[02:32] <TTilus> esteem_: do umount from commandline?
[02:32] <drewniak> but when i boot windows twice
[02:32] <drewniak> nothing happens
[02:33] <drewniak> force mount doesnt work
[02:33] <drewniak> anyone can help me?
[02:33] <cristian> ciao
[02:33] <TTilus> drewniak: elaborate, how come "doesnt work"
[02:33] <TTilus> drewniak: command you run is?
[02:34] <esteem_> TTilus:  How do I do this?
[02:34] <Rimers> Plantain: not a feature i have seen as of yet, all systems ive worked on didnt work that way
[02:34] <drewniak> sudo Volume is scheduled for check. Please boot into Windows TWICE, or
[02:34] <drewniak> use the 'force' mount option.
[02:34] <drewniak> sry w8
[02:34] <drewniak> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/disk/by-uuid/747C42287C41E608 /media/hdd5 -o force
[02:34] <drewniak> then
[02:34] <drewniak> WARNING: Dirty volume mount was forced by the 'force' mount option.
[02:34] <drewniak> and nothing happens
[02:35] <TTilus> drewniak: hum, dunno what could help...
[02:35] <drewniak> :/
[02:35] <Imitation> drewniak: have you done a fsck for your partition?
[02:36] <drewniak> how can i run it?
[02:36] <Frogzoo> drewniak: boot doze & let it sort it out
[02:36] <drewniak> what?
[02:36] <TTilus> Imitation: i bet linux doesnt have fsck for ntfs-3g, thats why it asks to boot to windows
[02:36] <Frogzoo> boot windows
[02:36] <drewniak> i booted twice
[02:36] <drewniak> and no scandisk appears
[02:36] <Frogzoo> drewniak: boot windows
[02:36] <drewniak> then?
[02:37] <Frogzoo> mount the drive?
[02:37] <TTilus> looks like windows leaves it dirty _every_ time, no matter if it fixed it first or not...  bad
[02:37] <drewniak> it doesn`t work
[02:37] <drewniak> uhm
[02:37] <Frogzoo> !doesn't work
[02:37] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:37] <TTilus> Frogzoo: /lastlog, drewniak has explained the situation several times
[02:38] <drewniak> yesteray all worked fine
[02:38] <drewniak> but today
[02:38] <drewniak> i boot ubuntuy
[02:38] <TTilus> i bet windows leaves your hd dirty _every_ time you shut it down
[02:38] <drewniak> and there is no partition
[02:38] <drewniak> tilus how to fix it?
[02:38] <TTilus> drewniak: no idea :-O
[02:38] <drewniak> :/
[02:39] <Frogzoo> drewniak: you've tried scandisk?
[02:39] <drewniak> win xp sucks
[02:39] <drewniak> yes
[02:39] <drewniak> few times
[02:39] <TTilus> Frogzoo: it does not help if windows leaves the disk dirty every time
[02:39] <Frogzoo> no
[02:40] <nitrocks> is there a way that I can use a password of less than 6 characters in ubuntu?.. passwd keeps giving me a "Bad: new password is too short"
[02:40] <gypsymauro> hi
[02:41] <Frogzoo> nitrocks: I can tell you but then I have to kill you to stop you hurting yourself
[02:41] <nitrocks> frogzoo: i'm all ears, haha
[02:42] <gypsymauro> I'm trying to use LTSP it works but when the client boots I've the splash screen backing to the textual mode with a warning "(some x.org related words..) overwriting possibily-customized configuration" how can I prevent this?
[02:42] <Tr3z0> Ubuntu is nothing but frustration.
[02:42] <Tr3z0> Everything I've tried to get my WiFi working has failed.
[02:42] <Happu> isn't that obivios
[02:42] <Lumiere> Tr3z0: that's not ubuntu, that's wireless in general in linux
[02:43] <TTilus> nitrocks: you do not want to set a bad pw.  period.
[02:43] <giandrea> hello
[02:43] <Tr3z0> *Linux is nothing but frustration.
[02:43] <Lumiere> because the wireless card manufacturers cant make a decent product
[02:43] <genii> nitrocks: Usually it will groan but if you input a shorter/less secure password it should still take.
[02:43] <Happu> actually it's the hardware manufacturers
[02:43] <Lumiere> Tr3z0: wireless not working is something to blame the guys who made that card
[02:44] <giandrea> what permissions should I set on the web directory used by apache?
[02:44] <Happu> made card but not drivers
[02:44] <giandrea> where can I find some info?
[02:44] <Tr3z0> Well
[02:44] <Tr3z0> According to the people here
[02:44] <Tr3z0> My card is supposed to be able to work.
[02:44] <Lumiere> what card is it
[02:44] <Tr3z0> D-Link something
[02:44] <Tr3z0> I can't remember.
[02:44] <TTilus> Tr3z0: ...and as you have noticed, it does not guaranteed  ;)
[02:44] <Lumiere> cause if it is anything like my netgear
[02:45] <Frogzoo> nitrocks: /etc/pam.d/common-password
[02:45] <Lumiere> it depended on WHERE it it was made
[02:45] <nitrocks> i've tried to enter the password multiple times, by the third time it gives me "passwd: Authentication token manipulation error" "passwd: password unchanged"
[02:45] <martyn> does anyone know what the best free anti virus for linux is
[02:45] <Tr3z0> Wel
[02:45] <Tr3z0> l
[02:45] <Frogzoo> martyn: clamav
[02:45] <Tr3z0> I'm tired of trying.
[02:45] <TTilus> Tr3z0: dlink something is not usually the worst option with linux
[02:45] <CheshireViking> !virus | martyn
[02:45] <ubotu> martyn: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[02:45] <ConstyXIV> martyn: there isin't really a need due to the lack of linux virii, but clamav is a good one
[02:45] <Kohr-Ah> F-prot also has a Linux version.
[02:46] <martyn> cheers
[02:46] <genii> nitrocks: sudo passwd <username>
[02:46] <Kohr-Ah> I once had a Linux virus.
[02:46] <ConstyXIV> all clamav will really do is catch windows virii before they enter/leave your machine
[02:46] <Kohr-Ah> Though that was because it was a honeypot machine.
[02:46] <alesan> on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto there is info on how to update the splash screen. it is updated up to edgy, I guess the same applies to feisty right?
[02:46] <Kohr-Ah> With admin:admin ssh-login.
[02:48] <Kohr-Ah> Chkrootkit is nice also. Caught one rootkit with it.
[02:48] <Zambezi> I'm going to buy a new computer and a new PCI-e Nvidia graphiccard. Which manufacture is the best?
[02:48] <sorminpeace> hello...
[02:48] <ConstyXIV> Zambezi: as far as PC manufacturers, know Dell ships machines w/ Ubuntu
[02:49] <genii> ConstyXIV: For now only in the continental US
[02:49] <sorminpeace> how to get free cd/dvd ubuntu for new version ?
[02:49] <ideogram> how do I change the font the system uses?  all my menus use this huge ugly font
[02:49] <CheshireViking> !shipit | sorminpeace
[02:49] <ubotu> sorminpeace: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[02:50] <giandrea> how do I get the apache PID with ps?
[02:51] <ConstyXIV> giandrea: ps -auxw | grep apache
[02:51] <genii> Zambezi: As far as motherboard manufacturers go, Intel, Asus, and Gigabyte products in general have well known and supported chipstes
[02:51] <genii> *chipsets*
[02:51] <sorminpeace> btw i can't set high resolution for my computer, why ?
[02:51] <giandrea> ConstyXIV: that's what I did, and I get many processes, is it normal?
[02:52] <neo> hi
[02:53] <Zambezi> genii, Good cause I'm looking on a Asus motherboard and I think I'll grab a Asus graphiccard then.
[02:53] <Imitation> sorminpeace: you have your graphics card driver installed?
[02:53] <neo> how can i find program like yahoo chat box?
[02:54] <genii> Zambezi: For video cards the NVidia ones are better for Linux
[02:54] <ideogram> how can I get to the system font preferences dialog from the command line?  I am not using a desktop environment and don't have a system menu
[02:54] <neo> or msn chat window?
[02:54] <genii> Zambezi: At least for the internal chipsets. ATI ones are causing some grief
[02:54] <Zambezi> genii, I know. I just think GF 8600 something will do.
[02:55] <ConstyXIV> neo: pidgin
[02:55] <ConstyXIV> neo: i mean gaim
[02:55] <genii> Zambezi: Yes, perfectly :)
[02:55] <CheshireViking> neo, for an msn compatible client, have a look at aMSN, kopete, gaim, pidgin
[02:55] <ConstyXIV> neo: you should already have gaim
[02:56] <neo> what do u mean by gaim?
[02:56] <CheshireViking> !gaim | neo
[02:56] <ubotu> neo: Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[02:57] <ConstyXIV> neo: go to Applications -> Internet -> Gaim, that's your IM program (msn, yahoo, aim, jabber, etc.)
[02:57] <Zambezi> genii, And it's passive too. I have three computers running now 24/7 and since a month ago I'm paying for the power myself so I think I'll save alot of money by using one computer instead of three.
[02:58] <neo> thanks alot
[02:58] <genii> Zambezi: If you have almost 100% uptime like that a good investment for you might be a UPS as well
[02:58] <giandrea> if I set the web directory to the user and group under wich apache is run, how do I access it via SFTP then?
[02:58] <neo> sorry but that's the 1st time i use linux :)
[02:59] <ConstyXIV> neo: everyone has a first time
[02:59] <neo> but really it's a great OS
[02:59] <neo> mmmmmmm
[02:59] <Zambezi> genii, UPS comes in third place or so.
[02:59] <ConstyXIV> yup, Linux-Mandrake 7.2, those were the days :)
[03:00] <neo> when i play sound file for example and with arabic name
[03:00] <Zambezi> genii, I have 15" monitor. I would like 22" WS, but the main priority is to save the money. It's an expensive investment, but in the longterm it's more economic.
[03:00] <neo> it appear a symbols in the header
[03:00] <giandrea> I mean, only the www-data user will have access to that folder, am I supposed to access it via FTP under the www-data user?
[03:01] <giandrea> or should I put an admin user in the www-data grup too?
[03:01] <neo> when i play sound file for example and with arabic name it appear a symbols in the header
[03:01] <TTilus> giandrea: you do _not_ generally give write permissions to your webdir to www-data
[03:01] <sorminpeace>  Private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems, but you can always message a staffer. Please register! ( http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#privmsg )
[03:02] <TTilus> giandrea: describe your setup, how many people there are that modify webstuff? etc
[03:02] <Lumiere> sorminpeace: yes now follow those instructions
[03:02] <giandrea> I have this ubuntu server with apache and generally one admin user that logs via FTP and modifies the server files
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> I need help in setting permissions for a "User" folder and all files folders within to any user (USB Persistent) I used SU to copy some extra files to it and now when persistent, I dont have access
[03:02] <TTilus> giandrea: that admin user would be you?
[03:03] <giandrea> I have some serious permission problems anyway...
[03:03] <giandrea> TTilus: yes
[03:03] <ConstyXIV> Jack_Sparrow: changing owner, or just permissions?
[03:03] <giandrea> TTilus: rarely my boss, only in emergencies
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> ConstyXIV: I would like to set it to user named Ubuntu as setup by persistent but will accept any solution
[03:04] <genii> Zambezi: If electricity consumption is a concern for monitors, then TFT isn't bad (whatever size). Tho even the old CRT that have energy-saving on them when in low power mode don't consume a whole lot
[03:04] <TTilus> giandrea: set your webtree to be owned by admin and be either world-readable (so www-data can read it too) or if you have some scripts you only want to run but dont want to show to world set to group www-data and only read permissions to group
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> ConstyXIV: I stuck in the usb while in my normal session and copied some files to it but had to use sudo to do it... as I am not user ubuntu on my regular box
[03:05] <pawan> i installed kubuntu but i cannot see where it is installed
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: where you login you can change sessions
[03:05] <ConstyXIV> Jack_Sparrow: i believe sudo chmod -r 777 foo is what you're looking for
[03:05] <pawan> how to change sessions
[03:06] <TTilus> pawan: "kubuntu" just means you have the option to use kde desktop
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: under options
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: You can also set it to be the default... if you chose to do so.
[03:06] <Zambezi> genii, The monitor is not a concern. Mine is just small. :-) I'm dreaming about two 22" Samsung 226BW.
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> ConstyXIV: thanks..
[03:06] <pawan> i cant see options
[03:06] <TTilus> ConstyXIV: you bad!
[03:07] <TTilus> ;)
[03:07] <riaal_> Anyone here know how to check if there is no commandline argument to an script? something like if [[$1 == 'null'] ]  would be great
[03:07] <giandrea> TTilus: so www-data admin with 774 would be ok? there are some php files that only need to be served.
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: Usually in the lower left of the screen where you type in your user name and pass
[03:07] <sorminpeace> i can't set high resolution for my computer, why ?
[03:07] <jotham> hi, i want to change something in the source of the Gnome/Ubuntu weather applet, where do i go about finding the source etc to fiddle with?
[03:07] <TTilus> giandrea: NOOO!!!
[03:07] <sorminpeace> i dunno what happen with the instalation
[03:08] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:08] <giandrea> TTilus: doh...
[03:08] <sorminpeace> "screen resolution" in fiture System ?? anybody know why ?
[03:08] <giandrea> actually it's all root root 644, and the directories are 755, big mess
[03:09] <TTilus> giandrea: im talking about something like youraccount admin 774 for dirs and 664 for files
[03:09] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV how ??
[03:10] <TTilus> giandrea: if you are serving cgi (or other executables) try hard _not_ to give www-data  write permissions to those ifles
[03:10] <pawan> what is debconf
[03:11] <sorminpeace> Resolution: 640x480 <-- how to set it more high resolution ??
[03:11] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: type that in your console
[03:11] <TTilus> giandrea: and with scripts yourserf www-data 740 would do well too
[03:11] <giandrea> TTilus: ok, because i've read that the folder should be www-data www-data...
[03:11] <TTilus> giandrea: who said that?
[03:11] <pawan> it is asking the default display manager
[03:11] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: what console, sorry i'm new use this OS
[03:11] <giandrea> google
[03:11] <pawan> i am trying to install kubuntu
[03:11] <giandrea> :P
[03:11] <TTilus> giandrea: what a mighty source  ;)
[03:12] <freebox> Hello All! Im looking for an solution to customize my Linux instalation. How I can put my logo in installation, change somethings and pack it in a .iso to install later?
[03:12] <ConstyXIV>  sorminpeace: find Applications-> System->Terminal
[03:12] <giandrea> TTilus: so Apache only needs to be able to read the tree, right?
[03:12] <TTilus> giandrea: think about it, what do you want the _server_ be able to do?
[03:12] <giandrea> or execute also?
[03:12] <TTilus> giandrea: rewrite your scripts?  ;)
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: I thought you already installed kubuntu-desktop
[03:12] <pawan> i am installing
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: aND YOU ARE ALREADY RUNNING uBUNTU?
[03:13] <pawan> yes
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: Sorry for the capslock..
[03:13] <SirBabau> freebox: You might be after something like http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/
[03:13] <TTilus> giandrea: the execute part depends on what you really are up to
[03:13] <pawan> should i not install
[03:13] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: Applications>System Tools>... then how ??
[03:13] <giandrea> TTilus: no cgi, only PHP
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: Once it finishes you will have the option when you login to select KDE for this session or all sessions
[03:14] <TTilus> giandrea: okay, mod_php?
[03:14] <xdcdx> in 'less', how can I look for two consecutive newlines (that is, an empty line)?
[03:14] <giandrea> TTilus: I guess so, yes
[03:14] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: find terminal, then type what I told you earlier in there
[03:14] <pawan> i should select gdm or kde i have ubuntu installed
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: It will make some changes to Ubuntu programs as well. but it works fine
[03:14] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: i use UbUntu ver. 5.*
[03:14] <TTilus> giandrea: apache does not really _execute_ php scripts in a way exec flag would matter, so you don't need it
[03:15] <giandrea> TTilus: perfect, I start to understand, thank you very much
[03:15] <soneil> xdcdx: search for ^$ .. ^ represents the start of a line, and $ the end .. with nothing between them, it'll match empty lines
[03:15] <xdcdx> soneil: thanks, that will work. in addition to that, how can I look for characters like \n \t etc?
[03:16] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: it shouldn't matter.  there should be a "Terminal" entry somewhere in Applications.  (5.10 is now officially unsupported by the way)
[03:16] <triden1> Is there any "good" reason to bother with the 700Mg+ upgrade from Ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04?
[03:16] <s88> hi all, I have in a weird situation...
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: It is your choice, and can always be changed
[03:17] <s88> my subversion server can work find in serverl mins after rebooting
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: Many people have several window managers installed/selectable at login..
[03:17] <SirBabau> triden1: Improved network management is one thing that comes to mind.
[03:17] <pawan> ok
[03:17] <soneil> xdcdx, that I'm not sure of.  I just happen to end up matching non-lines (^$), commented lines (^#) etc fairly regularly
[03:18] <ConstyXIV> triden1: yup, network-manager is a godsend if you have a wifi machine
[03:18] <s88> but it'll not be connected in a few mins
[03:18] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: done, i find it! then ??
[03:18] <ConstyXIV> triden1: even better than the windows wifi tools
[03:18] <s88> Does anyone meet this situation before?
[03:18] <xdcdx> thanks
[03:18] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: in Terminal, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[03:19] <triden1> SirBabau: When I tried just using the 7.04 fresh install CD my networking would not work at all. Though please note that with the 6.10 version I had absolutely no issues at all with wireless. I uses a wireless home network where I cannot get to any cable to plug into the system.
[03:19] <TTilus> giandrea: apache security docs are good to read, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/security_tips.html
[03:19] <triden1> Oh god do you see how I am typing! I uses! LOL I need to proofread what I write.
[03:20] <giandrea> TTilus: tnx, I will read them
[03:20] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: I can choice and set it, what I willd do ?
[03:20] <SirBabau> triden1: That's odd. Did you try manually entering the SSID rather than using roaming mode?
[03:21] <triden1> I have tried both. I know my wireless data by heart.
[03:21] <triden1> It was frustrating to me.
[03:21] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: could you try saying that again?
[03:21] <SirBabau> Hmm, that issue might be beyond my skills to help you out with. Wireless has always "just worked" for me under Ubuntu.
[03:22] <sorminpeace> ConstyXIV: Resolution: 640x480 <-- how to set it more high resolution like ??
[03:22] <crolle17> becoming another user with 'su - postgres' switches off the autocompletion. is that a bug?
[03:22] <triden1> What I have found is that I have started with a laptop that had a fully up to date Ubuntu 6.10 on it and upgraded via synaptic to 7.04 without issue BUT when I do a fresh install of 7.04 from a recently downloaded iso the wireless will not work no matter what I do.
[03:23] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: a) what graphics card do you have, b) have you considered installing a newer version?
[03:24] <ubuntu-rocks> how can I check to see if i'm running any kind of ntp on my box?
[03:24] <Lumiere> ntpdc
[03:24] <Lumiere> then peers
[03:24] <Romnous> is there anyone in here who has a link to a guide or has experience with installing linux as a domain controller in a windows domain, and using roaming profiles with samba and ldap?
[03:24] <crolle17> i changed the user with 'su - postgres' and i wonder why this user can't user autocompletion.
[03:24] <Lumiere> (peers is a command for ntpdc)
[03:25] <Romnous> is there anyone in here who has a link to a guide or has experience with installing linux ubuntu (feisty fawn) as a domain controller in a windows domain, and using roaming profiles with samba and ldap?
[03:25] <stuart-> does beryl run okay on my old p3 667 with 64mb graphic card?
[03:25] <pawan> i installed kubuntu
[03:25] <stuart-> and can i choose to turn on/off beryl as in how i'd choose XFCE or Gnome in startup? sorry a lil new to this 3d desktop thing
[03:25] <pawan> how to use it
[03:25] <babapour> salam
[03:25] <Jack_Sparrow> stuart-: Doubtful
[03:25] <babapour> salam
[03:25] <babapour> hastin
[03:25] <stuart-> Jack_Sparrow, dang.
[03:25] <babapour> yeki be man javabn bede
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: You have to log out to get into kubuntu desktop
[03:26] <triden1> Well have to re-boot now. Update needs to go and re-start. BBL
[03:26] <pawan> ok
[03:26] <Romnous> !upgrade | sorminpeace
[03:26] <ubotu> sorminpeace: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:27] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: you said that already, and you really should upgrade
[03:27] <Romnous> is there anyone in here who has a link to a guide or has experience with installing linux as a domain controller in a windows domain, and using roaming profiles with samba and ldap?
[03:27] <Romnous> i'm using feisty fawn btw :/
[03:27] <sorminpeace> that's why i ask about free cd/dvd ubuntu for new version
[03:28] <ConstyXIV> sorminpeace: you can download the cds
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> sorminpeace: just download and burn the ISOs, unless your on dial up.., it won't take but an hour.
[03:28] <ubuntu-rocks> how can I check to see if i'm running any kind of ntp on my box? i am keeping to keep the computer clock accurate
[03:29] <Romnous> please is there anyone in here who has a link to a guide or has experience with installing ubuntu feisty fawn as a domain controller in a windows domain, and using roaming profiles with samba and ldap?
[03:29] <Kancil> but my connection in here a bit slowly
[03:29] <ConstyXIV> ubuntu-rocks: r-click your clock, adjust date and time
[03:29] <SirBabau> stuart-: Beryl can work on some surprisingly old hardware. Certain effects like Blur will probably be unusable but basic things like the window switcher may well work fine.
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> Kancil: then the smartest thing to do, would be to go to ubuntu.com, and order the cds
[03:29] <ubuntu-rocks> running ubuntu fiesty, command line only as it is a server
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> they'll send them for free i believe
[03:30] <Lumiere> ubuntu-rocks: from commandline
[03:30] <Lumiere> type ntpdc
[03:30] <curare> yes they send them for free. before we had DSL I ordered them and had to pay nothing
[03:30] <Lumiere> hit enter
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> curare: wil they send any of them(ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu), or just ubuntu?
[03:31] <Lumiere> ubuntu-rocks: if you get a prompt that looks like "ntpdc>"
[03:31] <Lumiere> type peers
[03:31] <Lumiere> hit enter
[03:31] <Romnous> please is there anyone in here who has a link to a guide or has experience with installing ubuntu feisty fawn as a domain controller in a windows domain, and using roaming profiles with samba and ldap?
[03:31] <curare> IndyGunFreak:  I think it's just ubuntu
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[03:32] <curare> IndyGunFreak: the other projects are community driven projects
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> curare: yeah, i was just thinking that.
[03:32] <ConstyXIV> Romnous: patience...
[03:32] <ideogram> I'm not using a desktop environment, how can I set my system font?
[03:32] <ubuntu-rocks> Lumiere - it list fiordland.ubunt 198.177.151.197  2   64    1 0.09959 -2.706959 2.81735
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> curare: looks like you can get free kubuntu cd's also... http://shipit.kubuntu.org
[03:33] <curare> IndyGunFreak:  but it's  not that important since you know "x-windows ? that's 20 shell-windows and a clock" ;)
[03:33] <Romnous> ConstyXIV; i really want to do this very fast, so i can get to other projects :/
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> curare: lol, true.
[03:33] <Lumiere> ubuntu-rocks: then you have time syncing
[03:33] <toryl__> Romnous: have you looked here?  http://tinyurl.com/2xdv3l
[03:33] <curare> IndyGunFreak: perfectly possible :) just wanted to say that you can't order any distro from ubuntu mainpage
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> right...
[03:34] <crolle17> why autocompletion is missing when becoming another user?
[03:34] <Romnous> toryl__: i did actually, but the tarball with the ldap-files is corrupted or something, i'm not able to open it
[03:35] <ubuntu-rocks> Lumiere - does that mean my clock will automatically be set to the correct time whenever it becomes out of sync?
[03:35] <Lumiere> it is
[03:35] <Lumiere> already
[03:35] <Romnous> toryl_: and the heimdal_kdc-package won't properly install
[03:37] <ubuntu-rocks> Lumiere - what is the mechanism for this? services or cron job. How can I verify that?
[03:37] <Lumiere> ubuntu-rocks: service
[03:37] <Lumiere> ntp
[03:37] <ahr> !botfood
[03:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about botfood - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:38] <ubuntu-rocks> Lumiere - tks
[03:38] <SirBabau> Does anyone know of a folder syncronisation tool, similar to Conduit, that can be scheduled? Preferably through cron, but some other mechanism would be okay.
[03:38] <curare> IndyGunFreak: Nice business model. Order them all 4 free and sell for 59$ xD
[03:39] <IndyGunFreak> curare: i know..lol
[03:39] <jinx_xnij> Anyone have any success getting a creative sound card (audigy 1) under Feisty?
[03:40] <erUSUL> SirBabau: check rsync
[03:41] <BigToe7000> wtf was with that DESU spam last night? :S
[03:41] <SirBabau> erUSUL: I love rsync for backups, but I want to have one folder updated by two remote folders. Essentially, I have a documents folder that I would like to keep synced between both my laptop and desktop via my server.
[03:41] <mystic_pinguin> im sorry the question but ... in the new nootbooks ... whith hd sata is there much problems therewhith ubuntu instalation? and makes the hd running?
[03:41] <SirBabau> I haven't found a satisfactory way to do this via rsync scripts since they don't handle files that have been updated on both machines concurrently.
[03:42] <fevel> I use ubuntu as a gateway...is there any tools to monitor the network that torks on command line? sorry for being so noob
[03:42] <gnomefreak> BigToe7000: please stay on topic if you dont need support or are not giving support please refer all other topics to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:42] <lee479> how do register for IRC

[03:48] <Dr_Willis> I was close :) heh.. try that command remote
[03:48] <alesan> how do I include a custom designed logo in the initramfs?
[03:48] <pawan> how to use kubuntu
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> pawan:  clarify that a bit?
[03:49] <pawan> how
[03:49] <Braxt> what is the "shockwave" package name for debian?
[03:49] <mystic_pinguin> SirBabau i dont know ... it is not mine :x i just thinking in have one ... so like i use ubuntu and neverinstall linux in one laptop im a litle worry :x
[03:49] <mystic_pinguin> fear
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> how to what part? Its Ubuntu + the kde packages..  How do you INSTALL it? how do you installit on Ubuntu?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> once ya got Kubuntu-desktop installed on a ubuntu box, the GDM screen has a menu, you select KDE from
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> if you install Kubuntu with the kubuntu cd's the KDM menu has a selection for KDE> (the default)
[03:50] <mystic_pinguin> SirBabau i cant install ubuntu in they laptop :x
[03:50] <pawan> i dont have kde to select from
[03:51] <SirBabau> mystic_pinguin: I'm afraid I can't really help you out without more info. I would suggest finding out the chipset and doing some research on it's compatibility with Linux. There's a chance that there are drivers out there, they're just not included in mainline.
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> pawan:  you really need to clarify what you are trying to do. and what you have done. IF you are on ubuntu, youyneed to install 'kubuntu-desktop' THEN restart the X server/restart GDM and it should show up in the sessions menu.
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> I gotta reboot..brb
[03:51] <pawan> ok
[03:52] <teenbeat2007_lap> ;aybe wrrong questionm anyone plays battlefield 2 her and have an dedicated server in linux
[03:53] <mystic_pinguin> SirBabau you talking about the ... motherboard chip7 ?!
[03:54] <SirBabau> mystic_pinguin: Yeah, the chipset on the motherboard that controls subsystems like SATA.
[03:54] <SirBabau> Could also be called your SATA controller.
[03:55] <banlieue> anyone have an idea on how to play zipped videos without unzipping them first?

[03:56] <pawan> how to change sessions
[03:56] <UberPsyX> SirBabau, sorry about that, router rebooted
[03:57] <genii> pawan Normally at the login prompt you get some option like "session type" so choose from there gnome or kde before you login
[03:57] <SirBabau> Hopefully nothing to do with anything I told you to do =P Jump back into #ubuntu-effects and I'll resend what I said.
[03:57] <UberPsyX> ok here :)

[04:03] <Aladdin^^Kelevra> salve a tutti
[04:03] <Nutubuntu> I suddenly have a font problem. I was trying to cure a firefox issue, found a webpage that suggested maybe it was a permissions issue on fonts and chmod -R 644 /usr/share/fonts/* . I did that. If I open a graphical app now (eg, system monitor), its tabs and the process list, etc, are all displayed as little squares, as if the font doesn't exist, I'm a bit nervous about restarting X so have not done that yet. Did I mess up seriously?
[04:04] <summer_s4> does anyone know were to get the compaq a4000 driver for ubuntu?
[04:04] <gordonjcp> what's a compaq a4000?
[04:05] <genii> Nutubuntu: Well likely your X will still start.
[04:05] <magnetron> most drivers for ubuntu are included on the Ubuntu desktop cd
[04:06] <genii> Nutubuntu: My /usr/share/fonts  dirs seem to be perms 755 BTW
[04:06] <Nutubuntu> genii - t/y - do you think I'll be able to read anything? I had xchat open already; I'm shy of restarting X because if I lose this support chan, my life as a proud and upright fellow is probably doomed ;)
[04:06] <Romnous> is there any guide for setting up a linux ubuntu feisty fawn computer, as a server/domain controller in a windows network, and use roaming profiles and client authentication using ldap/samba ???
[04:06] <Nutubuntu> genii t/y again I will chmod 755 them
[04:06] <gordonjcp> Nutubuntu: aha
[04:07] <gordonjcp> Nutubuntu: try installing irssi
[04:07] <RedDak> !fstab
[04:07] <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

[04:07] <Nutubuntu> gordonjcp,  t/y, will do :)
[04:07] <Dr_Willis> Romnous:  might want to check out the 'samba-doc' package - it included 2 books (in html format) that cover a lotof that info.
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> gotta love it when they include 300+ page books  in the documentation.
[04:08] <genii> Dr_Willis: the manpage for smb.conf is also *extremely* informative
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> Oh! one thing to add, just saw this in the screen I pulled up to do the chmod: firefox is warning me about ugly output (it's quite right!):  Pango-WARNING **: shape engine failure, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Bitstream Vera Sans Not-Rotated 9.9990234375'
[04:08] <summer_s4> Does anyone know were to get the drivers for a compaq a4000 all in 1 printer copy scan?
[04:08] <OneSeventeen> I'm trying to get multiple monitors working, but aticonfig --query-monitor returns "connected monitors: none, enabled monitors: none"  any tips?
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> genii:  yep. and theres ooodles of example sites..
[04:08] <alesan> samba is *no way* a simple as it is to share a folder on a windows machine :(
[04:08] <OneSeventeen> I just want to use my laptop with a projector, I don want to "extend my desktop"
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> every so often i reread the using samba book and discover a new feature
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> alesan: its got 100x the power also. :)
[04:09] <Romnous> Dr_Willis, i'll check it out, thanks :)
[04:09] <genii> Nutubuntu: About that error i have not an idea
[04:09] <magnetron> !dualhead
[04:09] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> for simple file transfers from windows to linux, i just use ssh and winscp
[04:09] <alesan> Dr_Willis, indeed, but the aim of Ubuntu is "Linux for human beings"...
[04:09] <Nutubuntu> How do I update the font-cache? I've forgotten the cmd offhand...
[04:10] <genii> Dr_Willis: For the longest time I didn't know you could have it auto-provide the windoze driver for whatever printer for instance to the client. Very useful
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> alesan: you are confusing 'samba's goal' with ubuntus goal. :) actually i thought gnome/kde have some little mini-samba-feature.. i never use it.
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> genii:  i never have gotten that part working. :) i like howi can get it to automount iso files as needed.
[04:10] <magnetron> alesan: in Ubuntu, you can right click a folder and choose "share"
[04:11] <Dr_Willis> i normally set up homes to be shared. and a public share. thats about it.
[04:11] <alesan> magnetron, cool to know right now I'm on kubuntu I will try next time
[04:11] <phiras> I have a fresh ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop , the system didn't ask me about the root password , what should be the password guys !!
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[04:11] <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
[04:11] <Romnous> !roto | phiras
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about roto - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <Romnous> !root | phiras
[04:11] <alesan> phiras, you should set your root password
[04:11] <ubotu> phiras: please see above
[04:11] <Dr_Willis> you should NOT set the root password. :)
[04:11] <magnetron> !noroot | alesan
[04:11] <ubotu> alesan: Regardless of your choice: Please do not advise against user security policy and create a root password, please see !rootsudo
[04:11] <genii> phiras: the root account is by default locked out on ubuntu. For admin things the way is to use sudo instead
[04:11] <Nutubuntu> is it sudo fc-cache? are there switches?
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> you 'can' - but its not needed
[04:12] <Frogzoo> alesan: please don't tell people to set root passwords, there's a reason no passwd is the default
[04:12] <Nutubuntu> I'd man it but I can't read the output ;?/
[04:12] <phiras> sudo , ok i c
[04:12] <CraZy675> I have a dynamic ip at home and I connect to it remotely from work.  I'd like to write a script or something that will notify me when the ip has changed.  Any recommended strategies?
[04:12] <phiras> thanks
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> sudo -s = for a 'root shell'
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> !sudo
[04:12] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:12] <alesan> magnetron, Frogzoo I am really convinced this policy is security through obscurity. do I risk ban if I advice to set a root pwd :) ??
[04:13] <genii> CraZy675: Use some dynamic IP client and service like DynDNS or so
[04:13] <Dr_Willis> The reasons for using sudo, are given in a Huge thread on the forums last i looked.
[04:13] <Dr_Willis> its not 'just through obscurity'
[04:13] <kRush> subpixel hinting doesn't work in FF?
[04:13] <Frogzoo> alesan: leaving the root a/c disabled does leave the default install substantially more secure than otherwise
[04:13] <Nutubuntu> Dr_Willis, you have your capitalization back - congratulations ;)
[04:13] <magnetron> alesan: we are not discussing the support policys here. don't recommend such things
[04:14] <Dr_Willis> Nutubuntu:  trying out Konversation irc client. I set my nick right. :)
[04:14] <CraZy675> genii: thanks
[04:14] <alesan> magnetron, Frogzoo I won't argue because this is not the appropriate place
[04:14] <Dr_Willis> thats why the Forum thread was so large. :)
[04:14] <Romnous> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAP-Samba_PDC_(for_Linux_and_Windows) <-- the gzipped tarball isn't opening for me :/, can anyone test opening the LDAPServer.tar.gz package in there?
[04:15] <alesan> anyway, can somebody explain me how to modify the usplash default logo? I want to create my own version of ubuntu :)
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> I use and like Konversation....Settings... Configure Konv...chat..hide parts and joins will be your first change...
[04:15] <Dr_Willis> !usplash
[04:15] <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
[04:15] <alesan> with custom packages etc
[04:15] <Nutubuntu> Yay, I think I fixed it ... :D
[04:15] <summer_s4> does anyone know how were to find the drivers for a compaq a4000 all in 1 printer and scanner?
[04:15] <Dr_Willis> Jack_Sparrow:  yep. i miss the vertical bar for the nick/text however that xchat has. :)
[04:15] <genii> CraZy675: The ubuntu client name is something like ez-ipupdate
[04:16] <magnetron> summer_s4: i'm not sure, maybe it's included in the foomatic package
[04:16] <ViPeR> o0o0o0
[04:16] <film> When I run update-manager I get the following two messages: 'warning: could not initiate dbus' and current dist not found in meta-release file'
[04:16] <summer_s4> magnetron: what is the foomatic package?
[04:16] <film> any help?
[04:16] <rodserling> anyone here play the game Cube, or Assault Cube?
[04:17] <Romnous> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAP-Samba_PDC_(for_Linux_and_Windows) <-- the gzipped tarball isn't opening for me :/, can anyone test opening the LDAPServer.tar.gz package in there?
[04:17] <genesis> Hello
[04:17] <magnetron> summer_s4: foomatic contains a lot of printer drivers
[04:17] <summer_s4> magnetron: were is foomatic found?
[04:17] <genii> Romnous: ! minute I'll give it a go
[04:18] <magnetron> summer_s4: install it with synaptic. it's called foomatic something CUPS
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Has persistent mode on usb been fixed for Feisty.?
[04:18] <film> are the feisty repositories down?
[04:18] <jpb_jpb_jpb> hi everybody
[04:18] <Romnous> thx genii
[04:18] <Nutubuntu> film, they can't all be b/c I'm installing a pkg right this second
[04:19] <pawan> hi
[04:20] <gnomefreak> Jack_Sparrow: depends on the mirror you are using try a differnet one
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: do you have kde yet
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> gnomefreak: ?
[04:21] <gnomefreak> Jack_Sparrow: did you ask if feisty repos were down
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> nope
[04:21] <film> i did
[04:21] <gnomefreak> ah
[04:21] <genii> Romnous: It's a badly formed URL that is the problem. Give me a moment and i'll see if I can deduce the actual file it is attempting to point to
[04:21] <pawan> ya got it
[04:21] <gnomefreak> film: try another mirror
[04:21] <Romnous> ok thx
[04:21] <pawan> i changed the session
[04:21] <film> it seems to be a problem with update-manager
[04:21] <pawan> thanks
[04:21] <film> aptitude and synaptic update just fine
[04:22] <film> current dist not found in meta-release file
[04:22] <film> what does that mean
[04:22] <gnomefreak> film: without seeing your repos and full output of apt-get update its hard to tell
[04:23] <giandrea> I've set the ownership of my web folder to myuser:www-data with privileges 754, is it safe?
[04:23] <film> gnomefreak: it only pops up when i run update-manager
[04:23] <gnomefreak> film: apt-get update apt-get install and upgrade all work ok?
[04:23] <film> gnomefreak: yes
[04:24] <gnomefreak> film: give me a sec your gonna have to look for a file i just need the path first
[04:24] <daum> hi all i'm new to ubuntu and i'mt rying to install pear but hwen i do apt-get install php-pear
[04:25] <RavuAlHemio> Hi everybody...
[04:25] <whatspy> there was a "smarter" kill command, that could take the name of the process or something like that, instead of ps aux followed by kill
[04:25] <gigabytes> ciao a tutti
[04:25] <daum> i get it is not available but is referred to by another package
[04:25] <Romnous> !phppear
[04:25] <whatspy> what was it's name ?
[04:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about phppear - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:25] <Nutubuntu> I've been running firefox (or swiftweasel) under strace to see where it's breaking - I want to understand the strace output now that the app has cooperated and given me a lot of examples ;)
[04:25] <gigabytes> ho notato che in ubuntu feisty alcuni programmi Qt hanno problemi con il charset
[04:25] <Nutubuntu> !it | gigabytes
[04:25] <ubotu> gigabytes: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[04:25] <gigabytes> Nutubuntu: sorry I thought I was already in the italian channel I'm sorry
[04:26] <Nutubuntu> No problem, gigabytes :)
[04:26] <gnomefreak> film: do you see /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[04:26] <RavuAlHemio> I've got problems installing texlive...
[04:26] <film> gnomefreak: Yes, i have winehq.list in there
[04:27] <gnomefreak> film: remove /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[04:27] <gnomefreak> film: than try update-manager again
[04:28] <RavuAlHemio> While dpkg configures texlive-base-bin, fmtutil-sys fails: "fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found."
[04:28] <evan_> hey
[04:28] <film> gnomefreak: crap, i killed the wrong thing
[04:28] <genii> Romnous: Bah. The attachments they upload there are not immediately accessible by some hard URL unfortunately. They seem to be fed dynamically on server-side.
[04:29] <iain> Hello, Can anyone help me. I am trying to install RMagick (ruby imagemagick lib) and am getting some unusual errors. I have found that I need to install the liblcms library but when installing that I get a problem from synaptic saying  error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/liblcms1-dev_1.15-1_i386.deb (--unpack):
[04:29] <iain>  trying to overwrite `/usr/include/icc34.h', which is also in package libecw
[04:29] <iain> Errors were encountered while processing:
[04:29] <iain>  /var/cache/apt/archives/liblcms1-dev_1.15-1_i386.deb
[04:29] <Romnous> genii: ok that sux pretty hard.. :/
[04:29] <iain> does anyone have any suggestions of how to fix that
[04:29] <genii> Romnous I would complain to the page author
[04:29] <film> gnomefreak: I dont' have a /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[04:29] <merlion> .
[04:29] <daum> !php-pear
[04:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about php-pear - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:29] <Romnous> genii: is there any guide or do you have any experience with installing ldap/samba on linux, and using the linux server to set up roaming profiles??
[04:30] <Romnous> genii: i will
[04:30] <daum> hm any ideas for how to install pear
[04:30] <dakira> film: when you say you killed the wrong thing.. what did you remove instead?
[04:30] <merlion> anyone know how to update ClamAv?
[04:30] <film> dakira: rm -rf sources.list.d/
[04:30] <RavuAlHemio> daum: check packages.ubuntu.com
[04:30] <barbi1> hi, my bash autocomplete is not working.... plz help
[04:30] <film> dakira: rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[04:30] <RavuAlHemio> iain: let me check
[04:31] <gnomefreak> dakira: may need sudo
[04:31] <kazim59> barbi1: did you try pressing [TAB] ?
[04:31] <Romnous> genii: somebody already complained about the package not working, so i'll just google further, and wait till it gets updated :)
[04:31] <dakira> film: well.. but that was, what you were supposed to remove.. so it's not the wrong thing
[04:31] <RavuAlHemio> iain: try: sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/liblcms1-dev_1.15-1_i386.deb
[04:31] <film> dakira: yes i just noticed, my eyes are strained on this monitor
[04:31] <RavuAlHemio> iain: then use synaptic to continue installing that library
[04:31] <film> gnomefreak: update-manager returns the same error though
[04:31] <barbi1> kazim59, yes definitely
[04:32] <gnomefreak> film: than paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin so i can see what u-m is chocking on
[04:32] <daum> RavuAlHemio but when i do the apt-get install php-pear i get the following:http://rafb.net/p/ILoR2j75.html
[04:32] <genii> Romnous: The file just seems to be client templates. so you can find sample ones around, likely.
[04:32] <film> gnomefreak: can you link me to pastebin
[04:32] <Romnous> genii: i already searched for them, but no success :/
[04:32] <Romnous> BRB
[04:32] <gnomefreak> !pastebin | film
[04:32] <ubotu> film: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:33] <dakira> film: pastebin.ca
[04:33] <film> thanks
[04:33] <andrea_> hi
[04:33] <OneSeventeen> I'm a little lost by the using multiple monitors wiki ubotu recommended.  Will mergedfb work with proprietary ATI drivers?
[04:33] <andrea_> question....there a usb mouse(wireless) that I can't put to work
[04:33] <andrea_> I setted up xorg.conf to /dev/psaux...but it doesn't move
[04:34] <iain> RavuAlHemio: the package installed great. Just trying to install RMagick Now. Thanks Alot
[04:34] <RavuAlHemio> daum: Which release do you have? Edgy? Feisty? Are you installing from CDs or from the web?
[04:34] <andrea_>  input:   Wireless USB Device? as /class/input/input11
[04:34] <RavuAlHemio> iain: No problem.
[04:34] <merlion> can anyone help my java applet is not loading
[04:34] <FeLpinG> ENGLIS irc
[04:34] <merlion> with errror loading
[04:34] <andrea_> can I setup the device to /class/input/input11
[04:34] <andrea_> ?
[04:34] <ryanakca> How can one determine the server key fingerprint for an ssh server (from inside the server)?
[04:34] <OneSeventeen> guess, it doesn't matter, as mergefb isn't in the repositories
[04:35] <dakira> ryanakca: lol.. i was just asking myself the same thing ;)
[04:35] <FujikO> ciao
[04:35] <film> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31909/
[04:35] <gnomefreak> ty
[04:35] <FujikO> qualcuno italiano x un aiuto??
[04:35] <M_A_K> In windows I can add multiple IP configs to a single interface so I can plug into many different networks.  Can I do the same in UBUNTU without having to re-enter the ip config every time?
[04:35] <gnomefreak> !it | FujikO
[04:35] <ubotu> FujikO: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[04:36] <gnomefreak> film: looking
[04:36] <giandrea> how do I modify the privileges of folders only with chmod -R?
[04:36] <joseaa> Can anyone point me from where I can download totem-xine-firefox-plugin for feisty ?
[04:36] <gnomefreak> film: i dont see any reason its choking tbh
[04:36] <Pici> M_A_K: If you are using the gui, I believe you can put multiple locations in and have each one use its own config.
[04:36] <gnomefreak> run apt-get update than try it again
[04:37] <film> gnomefreak: yes, i recently commented out the exaile source but still have the same problem
[04:37] <trakinas> giandrea: chmod -R a+rw or however you wish
[04:37] <giandrea> trakinas: this will modify files too, I want only dirs to be x
[04:37] <M_A_K> Pici : but then I need to switch when I log in?  I haven't had much luck with that.
[04:38] <trakinas> giandrea: ah!
[04:38] <merlion> what is the technical name when using apt-get for sun java?
[04:38] <Dr_Willis> !java
[04:38] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:38] <trakinas> giandrea: chmod a+rw /folder/
[04:38] <trakinas> without the -R.
[04:38] <merlion> must I type the word "!"
[04:38] <giandrea> trakinas: this will not modify contained folders... :P
[04:38] <jan> what's the eyecandy channel ?
[04:38] <Dr_Willis> is that factoid out of date? shouldent it be sun-java6-jre now a days?
[04:38] <gnomefreak> film: im not sure than more than likely it has something to do with one of the files for sources.list as u-m should be reading them. I would file a bug on update-manager and see what mike says when he gets to it
[04:38] <trakinas> giandrea: do it for every folder then??? lol
[04:39] <gnomefreak> janeppo: #ubuntu-effects
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Is it possible to just add the gnome  ubuntu-desktop to a server install?
[04:39] <giandrea> trakinas: well, this might take quite a while... :P
[04:39] <gnomefreak> janeppo: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:39] <giandrea> trakinas: perhaps the upper case X will work
[04:39] <jan> thx gnomefreak
[04:39] <trakinas> giandrea: maybe
[04:39] <gnomefreak> s/janeppo/jacksparrow
[04:39] <film> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31913/
[04:40] <Jack_Sparrow> gnomefreak: Sure you talk to me when I didnt say anything and to someone else when I ask a question..  :)  np thanks.. I used the server insatll as the live refused to boot..
[04:40] <gnomefreak> film: it seems that for some reason the tuxfam... repo is still enabled in one of the files. try to restart dbus
[04:40] <Dr_Willis> Jack_Sparrow:  ive herad of some issues with doing it that way. so  :) good luck.
[04:41] <film> gnomefreak: sure, how do i do that
[04:41] <gnomefreak> Dr_Willis: just some extras you have to install (like sound) :(
[04:41] <esteem_> Is there any way I am able to get a status/loading bar up when using DD?
[04:41] <gnomefreak> film: not sure off hand
[04:41] <ryanakca> How can one determine the server key fingerprint for an ssh server (from inside the server)?
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_Willis: Thanks.. no loss if it dosent work...
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> gnomefreak:  yea - that may be it.
[04:41] <dakira> film: your list looks good to me.. i prefer a cleaned up like this, though: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31917/
[04:41] <mrh> Hi everyone
[04:41] <dakira> film: what is your error again? can you maybe paste it to a pastebin. too? maybe I can help
[04:41] <ConstyXIV> are there any non-apple touchpads that have two-finger right-clicking?
[04:42] <gnomefreak> film: easy way to reboot but there is a command that will do it but i perfer to reboot just incase it is something else that could be causing it
[04:42] <film> dakira: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31913/
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_Willis: Will that give me tha graphic login or will I need to type something at the server login?
[04:42] <film> gnomefreak: gotcha, just waiting on dakira
[04:42] <gnomefreak> dakira: are you getting a dbus error?
[04:42] <film> gnomefreak: thanks for the help
[04:42] <gnomefreak> film: np
[04:42] <ubu> i installed a new version of alsa over the default one, now im getting sound errors. So i decide to remove alsa completely and reinstall but it tries to make me remove "ubuntu-minimal" as well. Is this package needed elsewhere?
[04:42] <mrh> Say, I have a slight issue with the openoffice interface, would this channel be the right source to seek a solution?
[04:43] <gnomefreak> mrh: what version of ubuntu?
[04:43] <merlion> what is the meaning of "!Multiverse repository"
[04:43] <mrh> feisty fawn
[04:43] <dakira> gnomefreak: no.. why should I?
[04:43] <daum> RavuAlHemio sorry got distracted, i have fiest
[04:43] <daum> y
[04:43] <ubuntu-rocks> how can i check the serial port parameters?
[04:43] <gnomefreak> dakira: i thought you were having same issues as film
[04:43] <dakira> gnomefreak: no.. I was just trying to help him, too
[04:44] <RavuAlHemio> daum: CD or web?
[04:44] <ConstyXIV> merlion: multiverse is non Free (as in speech) software
[04:44] <daum> it was a cd install
[04:44] <daum> i'm not longer on the cd
[04:44] <daum> just the normal server
[04:44] <obtix> i am trying to install Ubuntu in VMWare (inside Ubuntu for someone to test with out damaging my system). I put the live CD and it boots fine, when I go to hit "Install" i see a quick window jump on the task bar and then nothing happens. I have never had that issue installing Ubuntu. Help please! Thanks.
[04:45] <dakira> film: sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart
[04:45] <merlion> ConstyXIV: that means I am not able to download and install it freely?
[04:45] <Nutubuntu> Be well all - later :)
[04:45] <film> dakira: no dice, going to try rebooting
[04:45] <dakira> obtix: when installing iside vmware I'd use the alternate installer
[04:46] <RavuAlHemio> daum: hmm...
[04:46] <koolrans> i had a question regarding font
[04:46] <ubu> I need help, i installed a new version of alsa over the default feisty one, now im getting sound errors. So i decide to remove alsa completely and reinstall but it tries to make me remove "ubuntu-minimal" as well. Is this package needed elsewhere?
[04:46] <obtix> dakira: what is the alternate installer?
[04:46] <koolrans> I wanted to browse a site called www.gujaratsamachar.com
[04:46] <magnetron> ubu: you need to remove the alsa that you installed by source
[04:47] <koolrans> and it requires a special truetype font
[04:47] <koolrans> can i install that font on ubuntu
[04:47] <dakira> ubu: no.. it is just a meta-package, that insures everything is there (i.e. when updating).. you can just reinstall it later
[04:47] <mrh> gnomefreak: the issue is that the text on the interface is in "olde english" or something similar, I can read it a bit, but most of it I cannot, and not being familiar with the openoffice interface and all
[04:47] <koolrans> i have done that for windows but not linux before
[04:47] <ubu> magnetron: how do i do that
[04:47] <ConstyXIV> merlon: you can, but you can't always get the source, and some other things (like redistribution)
[04:47] <ubu> dakira: perfect thanks
[04:47] <dakira> obtix: there are three ways to install ubuntu.. server-cd, desktop-cd (live) and the alternate-cd (text installer)
[04:47] <magnetron> ubu: depends on what happened when you installed it
[04:47] <daum> RavuAlHemio yeah i have no idea how to do it new to ubuntu i'm a gentoo guy but my work server is in ubuntu
[04:48] <Toma-> Whats the simplest way to make a screencast of a single window?
[04:48] <ConstyXIV> merlion: to help you out, most "freeware" on windows would fall under multiverse
[04:48] <ConstyXIV> Toma-: i believe you can just alt-PrintScreen
[04:48] <magnetron> ubu: reinstalling the alsa package will probably not make any difference
[04:48] <ubu> magnetron: i got no errors on install, atleast none i can recall
[04:48] <Toma-> ConstyXIV: i need video
[04:48] <ConstyXIV> oh, screenCAST
[04:48] <Toma-> :)
[04:48] <ConstyXIV> i don't know
[04:49] <magnetron> ubu: you need to undo whatever you did when you installed from source
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_Willis: I didnt realise the ubuntu-desktop was on the server cd.... when I ap-get install.. it asks for the cd so we will see how this goes.
[04:49] <obtix> dakira: does the alternate cd have the same applications and initial setup as the desktop? is there any way to use the desktop cd so i dont have to re-download?
[04:49] <RavuAlHemio> daum: have you tried clicking Reload in synaptic to get the latest package lists?
[04:49] <dakira> Toma-: imo recordmydesktop
[04:49] <koolrans>  anyone, any idea
[04:49] <ubu> magnetron: how do i undo those? i followed the instructions on  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[04:49] <Toma-> dakira: thanks
[04:49] <daum> RavuAlHemio doing apt-get update
[04:49] <dakira> obtix: the outcome will  be the same.. but the CD is completely different, so you'll have to redownload
[04:50] <magnetron> ubu: it is very hard to undo an install from source, that's one of the reasons i don't do it
[04:50] <daum> RavuAlHemio there we go-)
[04:50] <merlion> ConstyXIV: that means MS pay for all the free plug in and codecs?
[04:50] <ubu> magnetron: any suggestions? other than clean install?
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> obtix: I am installing ubuntu-desktop after installing from the server cd and it looks to have open office, firefox and more... have not finished the install yet, just see those things installing as part of ubuntu desktop now.
[04:50] <dakira> Toma-: i tagged some solutions here: http://tinyurl.com/26bxg3
[04:51] <ConstyXIV> merlion: usually, it's the app/codec vendor, and Windows doesn't actually ship with all the codecs you need usually
[04:51] <magnetron> ubu: you could read the installer script and try to undo everything it does
[04:51] <ideogram> how do I mount my USB memory stick?
[04:51] <ConstyXIV> merlion: ex: you can't play DVD's OOB on windows either
[04:51] <ConstyXIV> ideogram: plug it in
[04:51] <magnetron> ideogram: on Ubuntu desktop? just insert it
[04:52] <ubu> magnetron: ok ill try that. thnks
[04:52] <mrh> very well, I will attempt to solve my issue through another source, possibly openoffice itself
[04:52] <ideogram> I'm not using a desktop environment, I need access from the command line
[04:52] <hoops> hello, everybody. my Caps Lock doesn't work in text mode, and both of my computers have this problem with ubuntu, how can I fix this?
[04:52] <obtix> dakira: ok, thanks!
[04:52] <ConstyXIV> ideogram: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /path/to/random/folder
[04:53] <obtix> dakira: one more question, where do i get the alternate cd from?
[04:53] <koolrans> I wanted to browse a site called www.gujaratsamachar.com
[04:53] <koolrans> and it requires a special truetype font which they provide
[04:53] <koolrans> can i install that font on ubuntu
[04:53] <ideogram> ah, thx
[04:53] <janeppo> ubu: start at the end of the instructions. Whenever you see a "make install" try "make uninstall"  Maybe look at the makefile.
[04:54] <janeppo> ubu: you don't need to reverse the apt-get actions
[04:54] <avis> koolrans, indeed you can.  extract the ttf file and paste it into fonts:/// in nautilus
[04:54] <dakira> obtix: from the official download site
[04:54] <magnetron> koolrans: the reason that page doesn't work is that it is faulty coded
[04:54] <obtix> dakira: only desktop and server listed
[04:54] <koolrans> avis, i am not able to see correctly in firefox. Will it work in firefox.
[04:55] <dakira> ideogram: i can tell you how to mount your usb drive
[04:55] <Sivik> i'm having issues trying to create a symbolic link
[04:55] <merlion> I discover I have install the wrong version of java for my Feisty fawn, how to use apt-get to remove it?
[04:55] <dakira> ideogram: first find out if it was recognized by typing lsusb
[04:55] <Sivik> apt-get remove filename
[04:55] <merlion> I am using ppc
[04:55] <Sivik> !symlink
[04:55] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[04:55] <koolrans> I just tried in opera and it worked.
[04:55] <avis> koolrans, i believe you will if you install it in fonts:/// though someone elses feedback might be valuable
[04:56] <Jack_Sparrow> obtix: HAve you installed the server edition yet.. and alt is below the other options on the first page
[04:56] <magnetron> koolrans: you could watch it in firefox, it has an option for different charsets/encodings. try some other ones than the default one
[04:56] <koolrans> oh ok
[04:56] <obtix> Jack_Sparrow: I actually run the server edition at home bc of LAMP. I just found it from cdimage.ubuntu.com
[04:56] <dakira> ideogram: then do: sudo mount -t vfat -o rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1001,gid=100,umask=077,iocharset=utf8 /dev/sda1 /mnt
[04:56] <pawan> hi
[04:57] <dakira> ideogram: assuming your thumbdrive is /dev/sda1
[04:57] <ideogram> oh it works fine the first sudo mount command he gave me worked
[04:57] <koolrans> mangetron, avis: thanks for you help, I will try it out
[04:57] <pawan> any password fillig utility for ubuntu
[04:57] <avis> if i were to install a text based ubuntu install on a computer here at home would it be difficult retrieving mail from a pop3 server
[04:57] <avis> good luck koolrans
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> obtix: Ok, glad you found it...  http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[04:58] <dakira> obtix: go to "complete list of download locations" and pick one near you.. there you'll get a list of all avauilable downloads
[04:58] <pawan> like roboform
[04:59] <magnetron> pawan: firefox can store passwords.
[04:59] <IcePeak> Can I install graphic mode in ubuntu server?
[04:59] <magnetron> IcePeak: yes
[04:59] <IcePeak> magnetron: How?
[04:59] <obtix> Jack_Sparrow: dakira: I got it, thanks!
[04:59] <magnetron> IcePeak: install the package ubuntu-desktop
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> IcePeak: I am trying it as we speak..
[05:00] <avis> IcePeak, i believe its as simple as installing xubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-desktop using sudo apt-get install
[05:00] <IcePeak> magnetron, Jack_Sparrow, avis: Thanks!! I will try
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> IcePeak: I have server cd and it is installed... now apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and it asked for the server cd again, and it looks to be installing
[05:00] <pawan> what is the differnce between kubuntu desktop and ubuntu-desktop
[05:00] <bullgard4> What does the dmesg message "ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB] " mean?
[05:00] <Curare> pawan:  the display manager and associated apps
[05:01] <pawan> how to install ubuntu-desktop
[05:01] <magnetron> pawan: kubuntu-desktop contains kubuntu, ubuntu-desktop contains ubuntu
[05:01] <avis> well ubuntu-desktop contains the gnome desktop environment
[05:01] <avis> its all ubuntu underneath
[05:01] <magnetron> pawan: type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubuntu desktop uses Gnome window manager
[05:01] <noelferreira> i have tomacat running on port 8080 and i have to acces my localhost via web. For that i created a dynamic dns account. xxxxx.dyndns.org . How can i access my tomcat project over http ?
[05:01] <dakira> ideogram: but you might have no write access ;) oh.. and don't forget to unmount after usage!
[05:01] <pawan> but when i change session i get switched to kubuntu
[05:02] <dakira> gnomefreak, still here?
[05:02] <pawan> is kde enviroemtn better or gnome
[05:02] <magnetron> noelferreira: do you mean http://xxxx.dyndns.org:8080/
[05:02] <jpb_jpb_jpb> hi folks
[05:02] <gnomefreak> dakira: sort of i jsut got realy busy, whats up?
[05:02] <noelferreira> yes magnetron
[05:02] <avis> pawan its all up to what you prefer.  i've always liked gnome but for every gnome user you will find many others that like kde
[05:02] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: That is subjective...  see !best
[05:02] <magnetron> pawan: it's a matter of preference
[05:03] <avis> pawan if you are feeling experiemental another one to try us XFCE which is the xubuntu-desktop package
[05:03] <jpb_jpb_jpb> i'm trying to install VMWare tools on a virtual Ubuntu instance on a mac box and it wants me to log in as root, but AFAIK ubuntu doesn't have root.  When i try "su -" nothing happens.  Any ideas?
[05:03] <avis> jpb_jpb_jpb, try sudo instead
[05:03] <jpb_jpb_jpb> thanks
[05:03] <Romnous|BRB> !best
[05:03] <magnetron> jpb_jpb_jpb: in ubuntu, you shouldn't use su -  . it's sudo -i
[05:03] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:03] <pawan> how to install xubuntu-desktop package
[05:03] <noelferreira> magnetron: that's because xxxx.dyndns.org is pointing to my router
[05:04] <gnomefreak> pawan: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[05:04] <avis> pawan, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop.  and to switch between different environments you'd change at the login manager
[05:04] <jpb_jpb_jpb> huh
[05:04] <gnomefreak> dakira: is there something you need while im still here
[05:04] <Romnous|BRB> jp_jpb_jpb: get a root shell: sudo bash
[05:04] <dakira> gnomefreak: i have a friend with a huge gnome problem ;)
[05:04] <magnetron> noelferreira: yes it is. you would probably have to configure the router to forward that port to the server
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> 'sudo -s' is a easier way :)
[05:04] <UberPsyX> hey cna someone tell me the name of the system monitor in this screenshot? http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/8927/wtf1pv3.png
[05:04] <gnomefreak> dakira: give me an intro to it
[05:04] <gnomefreak> dakira: is it ubuntu related?
[05:04] <dakira> gnomefreak: it takes ages to start (with everything building up real slowly)..
[05:04] <noelferreira> magnetron: how can i do that?
[05:04] <avis> dakira i heart gnome myself :)
[05:05] <jkessler> how come miro and/or democracy isn't available as an apt-get package?  i installed using automatix but it's not in the menu.  and when i tried to manually install using apt-get it says the package isn't available
[05:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[05:05] <dakira> gnomefreak: ubuntu boot regularly to the login screen and after the login everything is slow.. when gnome is fully loaded everything works fine again
[05:05] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> UberPsyX:  looks like some Karamba/SuperKarmaba widgets
[05:05] <gnomefreak> dakira: compix,beryl or something like that enabled?
[05:05] <ubu> i need help, somwhere along the way i messed ALSA up, this (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31920/) is what i get when i try to edit the alsa-base
[05:05] <UberPsyX> Dr_Willis thanks, just thought it looked cool
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> thers dozens of those that look about the same. just different text/what they show.
[05:05] <gnomefreak> compiz
[05:05] <magnetron> noelferreira: depends on your router.
[05:06] <yosyp> hey guys
[05:06] <yosyp> i'm trying to fix my grub in the mbr
[05:06] <yosyp> using these instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[05:06] <dakira> gnomefreak: we created a new user and logged in with it to check if it is something with his configuration.. but it's not working there, either.. AIGLX is disabled in xorg.conf
[05:06] <yosyp> i'm on 'find /boot/grub/stage1', but it tells me File not found.
[05:06] <gypsymauro> I've to tell udev to don't add a sata disk partition at boot on the desktop, I've to write a rule?
[05:06] <jkessler> yeah...  but it didn't break my system.. my question was why aren't democracy and miro available as apt-get packages?  or am i misspelling them?
[05:06] <shroom> I'm getting a weird error on Ubuntu Server... First, it's botting straight to a root terminal. Second, It's telling me that apt-get is not installed, and I can install it by typing "apt-get install apt" which is fairly pointless since apt-get isn't installed.
[05:06] <noelferreira> magnetron: tell me generally speaking.
[05:07] <pawan> so there are three ubuntu desktops
[05:07] <yosyp> somebody had this?
[05:07] <pawan> ubuntu kubuntu xubuntu
[05:07] <gnomefreak> poningru_: only 1 there is xubuntu kubuntu edubuntu as well as ubuntu
[05:07] <avis> yosyp, try doing a updatedb command and use 'locate filename' instead of find without the directory
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> pawan:  theres more then those. those are just 'disrtos' that have the different default desktop
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> then ya got the other ubuntu-variants, like mint, that have others.
[05:07] <ubu> Can somebody help me with alsa?  (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31920/) is what i get when i try to edit the alsa-base
[05:07] <yosyp> avis what?
[05:08] <dakira> yosyp: the instructions seem bad
[05:08] <yosyp> avis i chrooted to my partition
[05:08] <pawan> how to get mint
[05:08] <geoffl> Hi all
[05:08] <noelferreira> do i need to open port 8080 magnetron?
[05:08] <avis> yosp in terminal type updatedb then locate <filename>
[05:08] <jpb_jpb_jpb> thanks!
[05:08] <ideogram> heh dakira you were right that I didn't have write access but the command line you gave me had a umask that only let root access it, so I had to fix that
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> pawan:  go to the linux mint web site and download it. Its a ubuntu variant. with several variants of its own.
[05:08] <stuart-> anyone tried wine'ing neverwinter nights on ubuntu here? is there any way to get around the dsound error msges?
[05:08] <magnetron> noelferreira: yes, open it and forward it to the server
[05:08] <dakira> ideogram: ah okay.. but you got it now?
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> stuart-:  thers a linux native client for that program. No need to use wine.
[05:08] <ideogram> yes everything is great now, thanks
[05:08] <avis> pawan i dont think you need mint.  mint uses gnome just like ubuntu.  you'd best find one you like and stick to it
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> stuart-:  and YES its a pain to get going.
[05:09] <yosyp> avis to top that off i can't seen to cd /boot on my partition. strange.
[05:09] <stuart-> Dr_Willis, thanks. i assume it's on bioware's site? and the pain is on wine i hope
[05:09] <dakira> ideogram: btw: in case the usb drive is not on /dev/sda1, you can check where it is with sudo fdisk -l
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> theres also kde, and enlightment, mint variants. out
[05:09] <noelferreira> magnetron: forward it to the server? sorry don't understand
[05:09] <ideogram> ok thx
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> stuart-:  should be. I had it going.. then reaized how muchi hated the game.  :)
[05:09] <dakira> yosyp: i'm writing you new instructions as we speak
[05:09] <magnetron> noelferreira: sorry i cannot help you more with your router
[05:09] <yosyp> thanks dakira
[05:10] <pawan> cassandra
[05:10] <sbarn> hello everyone. I tried installing ubuntu 7.04 on my dell (which I have done before) and a similar bug that happened with a lot of distros on an older computer is now happening on my good one. I am using a usb keyboard and after it was all installed I couldn't login under X because the keyboard would go all wacky..i.e. I push one letter and it acts like it stays pushed down and sometimes freezes. There is no way to just type one letter. Anyon
[05:10] <stuart-> Dr_Willis, coo. it works even though i just have the windows version, right?
[05:11] <noelferreira> magnetron: is not a router problem. i just don't understand what you mean with forward the port to my server. i have already localhost:8080 working in my local pc. do you know what i mean?
[05:11] <avis> magnetron, if your running a webserver then something like www.dyndns.com/myaddress:8080 should work once you have redirected traffic to your home lan/wan
[05:12] <new> hello room
[05:12] <new> anyone have insight in the usb mount problems
[05:12] <magnetron> noelferreira: yes i know what you mean. you will have to enable a feature called "port forwarding" in your router. how to do it depends on your router
[05:12] <new> I am running gutsy
[05:12] <lImItaO> has somebody installed mpd with the web client pitchfork?
[05:13] <noelferreira> lol
[05:13] <riaal_> where is the startup scripts located? /etc/init.d/?
[05:13] <savetheWorld> riaal: yes
[05:13] <avis> noelferreira, if you have a store bought router its very simply to forward a port.  i can help out in PM if you'd like
[05:13] <noelferreira> magnetron: i know do portforwarding in my router. my question is if i just have only to open port 8080
[05:13] <riaal_> savetheWorld, thanks
[05:13] <magnetron> avis: good to know, but i have no problems with my port forwarding. just trying to help noelferreira
[05:13] <savetheWorld> riaal_: most of the system inti stuff is in there. see also /etc/inittab
[05:13] <savetheWorld> *init
[05:13] <avis> i am sorry i am having a hard time figuring out who i am talking to
[05:13] <noelferreira> lol
[05:14] <new> I am unable to mount my cell phone to load up my mp3 player
[05:14] <yosyp> dakira ..
[05:14] <lhoerste> is something wrong with the feisty-proposed server? I keep getting and "IP not found" error message
[05:14] <magnetron> noelferreira: if you don't open the port, you cannot connect to the server... so yes
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> stuart-:  you get the nwn client from some download site. and some how use the data files from the windows install.
[05:15] <noelferreira> i opened it magnetron but i still can't access it via http
[05:15] <dakira> yosyp: here you go http://pastebin.ca/639390
[05:15] <yosyp> thanks
[05:15] <magnetron> noelferreira: did you try it from a client outside of the lan?
[05:16] <cc1973> !wifi
[05:16] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:16] <noelferreira> no magnetron
[05:16] <new> USB problems
[05:16] <magnetron> noelferreira: ask a friend to connect to it, then come back here
[05:17] <avis> new, do you know what linux calls your cell phones storage ?
[05:17] <dakira> gnomefreak: any more ideas on my problem?
[05:18] <new> it shows up in hardware manager and in lsusb
[05:18] <new> it trys to mount it but then quits and if recycles
[05:18] <yosyp> hey dakira, i have a little problem... grub-install : mkdir: cannot create directory '/boot': File exists
[05:18] <yosyp> should i rm /boot
[05:19] <avis> yosyp, i would never destroy a directory you are unsure as to why it exists.
[05:19] <dakira> yosyp: no.. just a sec
[05:20] <lImItaO> has somebody installed mpd with the web client pitchfork?
[05:20] <dakira> yosyp: that's strange.. boot is supposed to be there.. do you have your /boot on a different partition?
[05:21] <yosyp> dakira no, boot is there
[05:21] <yosyp> it's complaning it cannot create the directory because t already exists
[05:21] <linuxor> Hi, How to create ISO file using command-line ? thx
[05:21] <dakira> yosyp: yeah, i know.. and it is supposed to.. so I don't understand the error.. hence my question..
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: dd command
[05:22] <noelferreira> magnetron: thanks it works. last question. localhost:8080 is know the same as xxx.dynds.org:8080 true?
[05:22] <sowngold> !list
[05:22] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots

[05:22] <hwilde> !usb | new
[05:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:22] <dakira> yosyp: what is the name of your / (root) partition?
[05:22] <magnetron> noelferreira: localhost is a self-reference, it means "this computer"
[05:22] <yosyp> . /dev/hda1
[05:22] <dakira> yosyp: is it something like /dev/hda1?
[05:22] <dakira> hmm
[05:23] <dakira> than grub-install /dev/hda should do the trick
[05:23] <linuxor> Jack_Sparrow, how ? I did not understand .. thx
[05:23] <noelferreira> magnetron: i see. thanks
[05:23] <new> USB mounting problem help?
[05:23] <yosyp> nope, still complains about /boot existing
[05:24] <neverblue> vi much different from vim?
[05:24] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: Sorry for the lag will get it for you in a sec...
[05:24] <dakira> yosyp.. and you are sure, that you have not created a seperate partition for /boot?
[05:24] <linuxor> Jack_Sparrow, thx a lot friend ^_^
[05:24] <yosyp> dakira not any that i know of, i just installed using the given installer
[05:25] <yosyp> this is 6.10 by the way
[05:25] <avis> yosyp out of curiousity why did you not go with feisty ?
[05:25] <yosyp> i installed this about a year ago, it just stopped booting yesterday
[05:26] <shadowvice> Hey is Banshee a good alternative for ITunes, does it have any existing issues
[05:26] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/image.iso bs=2k           but want to verify that..
[05:26] <dakira> yosyp: hmm.. the thing is.. grub-install should in no way try to create /boot
[05:27] <yosyp> i could try mv /boot /boot_t and see if grub still complains?
[05:27] <linuxor> Jack_Sparrow, ok I'll try it.. thx u r so gentle
[05:27] <dakira> yosyp: bad idea, since the kernel images are in boot and you need them
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix)
[05:27] <dakira> did you chroot to /mnt?
[05:27] <yosyp> yes
[05:28] <dakira> yosyp: hmm.. google has never heard of your problem, either ;(
[05:29] <yosyp> yeah . . .
[05:29] <linuxor> Jack_Sparrow, ^_^ thx
[05:29] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/your-login/Desktop/image.iso bs=2k      may need sudo ...
[05:29] <yosyp> can i install lilo ? :
[05:29] <yosyp> :P
[05:29] <dakira> yosyp: okay.. try something different:
[05:29] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[05:29] <linuxor> Jack_Sparrow, Great friend thx so much
[05:30] <dakira> yosyp: boot a live cd, open a terminal, mount your linux partition to /mnt and then do this: "grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/hda"
[05:30] <lImItaO> has somebody installed mpd with the web client pitchfork?
[05:30] <shadowvice> ... or has someone already asked this before?
[05:33] <fargiolas> hi, maybe it's a faq but i didn't find anything on google.. when i run dmesg each message is prepended by a number (timings?) what do these numbers mean? is it possibile to disable them?
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> linuxor: It is also handy for making full backups...
[05:35] <jimcooncat_> any problems with three nics on one machine?
[05:35] <Frogzoo> jimcooncat_: only it's not enough
[05:35] <jimcooncat_> any problems with three nics on one machine (network interface cards, not nicknames)?
[05:36] <dakira> shadowvice: i don't like banshee that much, because it doesn't sort the music by artist, album, a.s.o.
[05:36] <Frogzoo> jimcooncat_: you can have as many as you have slots
[05:36] <yosyp> agh!
[05:36] <yosyp> dakira still the same error
[05:36] <jimcooncat_> Frogzoo: thanks, I just didn't know if there was a limitation on eth(x) interfaces
[05:37] <avis> i dont hear many people every talk about muine which is very neat if you like your music organized by artists and album.  easy to select things from
[05:38] <shadowvice> dakira:  Is there a better alternative for someone who's very unlinux savy
[05:38] <genii> jimcooncat_: If you put more than 2 in, I suggest to also make MAC entries for them in /etc/iftab as well as the usual entries in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:38] <dakira> yosyp: sorry.. i'm out of ideas.. under no circumstances grub-install should try to create /boot.. that doesn't make sense.. it should just install grub to the mbr..
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> dakira: what about renaming boot and trying it..
[05:39] <janeppo> yosip: what is wrong with the existing /boot directory?
[05:39] <dakira> Jack_Sparrow: that would be useless because without boot you have no kernel to boot
[05:40] <yosyp> can't cd into to it, or see it's contents for some reason
[05:40] <dakira> Jack_Sparrow: i mean without /boot
[05:40] <dakira> yosyp: can you pastebin "fdisk -l"
[05:40] <yosyp> one second
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> dakira: I agree, something is odd with all of that
[05:40] <dakira> yosyp: for me it looks like your /boot is located on a seperate partition
[05:41] <janeppo> I guess it exists somewhere, if grub-install sees it
[05:41] <avis> how difficult is it to access pop and smtp functions from command line ?
[05:41] <cyberphaz> hmm sound juicer opens default my audio cds..how can i set that to say, xmms?
[05:41] <janeppo> yosyp: what partitions do you have?
[05:41] <pawan> what is xubuntu
[05:42] <Frogzoo> avis: mutt for pop
[05:42] <avis> cyberphaz, system preferences preferred applications

[05:48] <dakira> yosyp: linux couldn't boot because your /boot directory was somehow replaced with a file (with the same name).. so what needs to be done, is to chroot into your ubuntu, remove /boot, reinstall a recent kernel and them grub-install again

[06:04] <Tanja92> what does that word mean
[06:04] <nerdboy1025> how would i change access to the file /dev/lp0 to allow anyone to change or use this file
[06:04] <atoponce> Tanja92: it means humanity to others
[06:04] <piedoggie> what does %wa in top stand for?  wait state?
[06:04] <Tanja92> ok
[06:05] <bastid_raZor> reflous, it just says sirius player 1.1 .. search mozilla plugin site for that
[06:05] <philo23> hey guys, my CUPS seems to be acting up, when i try to access it online and try to administer it it saying that i'm not authed, yet it doesnt ask for a login screen, any ideas?

[06:07] <JSegatto> Heya, Installed Ubuntu on a 300 mhz AMD K6 with 256 MB ram and after it gives the boot command, the system reboots, any ideas besides upgrading the system?
[06:07] <Tanja92> aleluja
[06:07] <centaur5> Is it possible to have 2 servers on the same network that will both support network boots (ubuntu install via pxe & thin client server) or will they conflict?
[06:08] <_Andrew> JSegatto: When you say the boot command would that be the grub menu or do you see the Ubuntu logo come up?
[06:08] <Das> Does this mean anything to anyone?: "VFS: Unable to mount root fs unknown-block(104,1)"
[06:08] <nerdboy1025> how do i change access to dev/lp0 to allow anyone access to i
[06:08] <Das> I get it from the text installer
[06:08] <JSegatto> _Andrew: the logo doesn't show up
[06:09] <jayleesan> Hello all!
[06:10] <jayleesan> I am looking for some support on installing Freevo
[06:10] <genii> centaur5: It's possible
[06:10] <_Andrew> JSegatto: Weird. Although its not a solution I don't think you would have much luck running Ubuntu on that machine anyway. I suggest you install xubuntu ( http://xubuntu.com/ ) and see if that works first
[06:10] <_Andrew> JSegatto: What did you plan on using the machine for?
[06:11] <JSegatto> pbx
[06:11] <genii> centaur5: Put the thin client range first in your dhcpd.conf and specify IP by MAC. The fallthru for pxe install becomes the next range if the MAC is not recognised
[06:11] <centaur5> genii: Is it a simple way to have the workstation know which one it's supposed to boot from?
[06:11] <seanw> I just discoverede wubi
[06:12] <_Andrew> JSegatto: I forgot to ask what version you tried to install..
[06:12] <reflous> bastid_raZor, hrm just installed sipie -- I like it even better than a firefox plugin
[06:12] <Das> I've been trying to install Ubuntu to no avail. I've been having various problems, and eventually ended up with the answer of "use the text installer". So I did, and I used to the "noapic" option, however I get this error: "VFS: Unable to mount root fs unknown-block(104,1)"
[06:13] <Noiano> salve
[06:13] <Noiano> hi
[06:13] <JSegatto> _Andrew: 6.06 LTS server
[06:14] <genii> centaur5: In the way I described, if a machine is known, it gets a mac entry and a particular IP from the first range. If the machine's mac is unknown, it goes down to the PXE install part. when you upgrade the boot image, comment out the static mac entries then they fall thru again and upgrade. Then uncomment them again to have them run the os from the server. etc
[06:14] <Noiano> anybody can help with setting up grub on an external disk?
[06:14] <_Andrew> JSegatto: Although Ubuntu Feisty isn't an LTS you might have better luck with it.
[06:14] <varustah> will wubi log back into windows if u want?
[06:15] <bastid_raZor> reflous, cool, i'll keep that in mind
[06:15] <JSegatto> _Andrew wouls asterisk run on it?
[06:15] <marti149> hey all
[06:15] <marti149> I booted off of ubuntu. How do you mount the windows disk?
[06:16] <Pici> !ntfs | marti149
[06:16] <ubotu> marti149: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:16] <genii> Pici Perhaps he has FAT partitions ;)
[06:16] <_Andrew> JSegatto: It is in the packages database.. http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/comm/asterisk
[06:16] <Pici> genii: perhaps, we'll see.
[06:17] <janeppo> Yosyp: has your problem been solved?
[06:17] <_Andrew> JSegatto: How well it runs on feisty I wouldn't know (no experience with the program)
[06:17] <Pici> genii: I think instructions for ntfs and fat are in that link
[06:17] <JSegatto> _Andrew: ok thanks, i'll give it a shot
[06:17] <genii> Pici: Ah, OK
[06:18] <_Andrew> JSegatto: The packages in Ubuntu are shared between kubuntu, ubuntu and xubuntu so just give them a try
[06:18] <hkBst> can you do a test install from a non-alternative feisty cd?
[06:18] <hkBst> text*
[06:19] <rbf> hi, how work better, reiserfs or ext3
[06:19] <janeppo> noyano: I can try
[06:19] <neverblue> rbf, reiserfs isnt supported anymore
[06:19] <_Andrew> hkBst: I don't think so. There are two cds an alternative (text server) and desktop (Graphical)
[06:20] <neverblue> anyone read the article about Reiser in Wired last month ?
[06:20] <antennae> hi
[06:20] <_Andrew> neverblue: yup
[06:20] <hkBst> _Andrew: what to do if the graphical stuff is too slow?
[06:20] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue: what did it say
[06:20] <neverblue> Paddy_EIRE, he killed his ex-wife
[06:20] <neverblue> and talks about his filesystem that he created
[06:21] <neverblue> its VERY interesting
[06:21] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue: and...?
[06:21] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue: lol
[06:21] <_Andrew> hkBst: You can install a lightweight GUI like xubuntu or you can install from the alternative cd (which will give you just a text console)
[06:21] <neverblue> i dont want to give too much away :P
[06:21] <genii> rbf: ext3 is the standard now and well-supported. You may like to read up later on XFS
[06:21] <hkBst> _Andrew: is there no "nox" boot option or something?
[06:22] <neverblue> next thing you know there will be a Kfs
[06:22] <_Andrew> hkBst: Try it, I wouldn't know. Possibly.
[06:22] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue: ext4 must not be far away
[06:22] <neverblue> there is 'K' everything in KDE :)
[06:22] <rbf> genii: thx
[06:22] <marti149> thanks all. I mounted my windows and edited what I needed.
[06:23] <neverblue> ext4 :)
[06:23] <dakira> janeppo: yosyp's filesystem seems to be damaged.. that is why /boot is no more accessible
[06:23] <me_> i cant mount my dvd device. and it is also not listet in /dev/ http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/13269/ could anyone take a look pls. and maybe help me ;)?
[06:23] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue: yeah kbloated
[06:23] <neverblue> or the Kpod :)
[06:23] <neverblue> and the handle Kphone
[06:23] <neverblue> handy*
[06:23] <neverblue> lol
[06:23] <Paddy_EIRE> kandy
[06:23] <avis> me_, sounds like a servered connection there inside your chasis if linux doesn't see it
[06:23] <neverblue> its Kandy :P
[06:24] <janeppo> dakira: so what did you try to do: repair the filesystem? boot it? salvage some files?
[06:24] <neverblue> me_, see if you BIOS recognizes it on boot
[06:24] <neverblue> s/you/your/
[06:24] <avis> me_, if you know how to access your bios you can at the very least see if your hardware recognizes your dvdrom
[06:24] <me_> neverblue: jep it does also does windows and the linux installation disc
[06:25] <genii> rbf:  np
[06:25] <neverblue> me_, is it in your /media dir?
[06:25] <me_> neverblue: yes the empty cdrom folder
[06:25] <_Andrew> me_: Mine comes up as cdrom:// is that it on yours?
[06:26] <dakira> janeppo: seems like it is just the /boot part, that is completely broken.. he's running fsck now and does get errors
[06:26] <neverblue> me_, if its in /media, then whats the issue exactly?
[06:26] <evan_> hey can anyone tell me how i can play open arena i get stuck in the choosing world screen
[06:26] <dakira> janeppo: when that's done we'll remove /boot and reconfigure the kernel-image
[06:26] <neverblue> evan_, run from command line, and view the error messages
[06:26] <me_> neverblue: i cant mount it. i see only the empty folder in media
[06:26] <_Andrew> evan_: Its broken? Or you just can't figure it out?
[06:26] <neverblue> me_, the name of the folder?
[06:27] <neverblue> me_, how many image (CD/DVD) drives, do you have?
[06:27] <me_> neverblue: there are two. cdrom and cdrom0
[06:27] <me_> neverblue: one
[06:27] <neverblue> me_, then you created one of those /media/cdrom or /media/cdrom0 yourself
[06:27] <janeppo> dakira: let's hope the only damage is to the boot part ...
[06:27] <crolle17> i became postgres-user by 'su -u postgres'. but i wonder why this user cannot use autocompletion in the bash. is that a bug or is it correctly? it is really bothering me.
[06:28] <neverblue> sudo umount /media/cdrom
[06:28] <neverblue> sudo umount /media/cdrom
[06:28] <me_> neverblue: no it was the ubuntu installation who did this
[06:28] <neverblue> then sudo mount -a
[06:28] <me_> neverblue: havent createt any of them
[06:28] <neverblue> me_, follow those instructions
[06:28] <dakira> janeppo: definately.. a question.. checking the file-system is done with "fsck /dev/hda1", right?
[06:28] <evan_> neverblue and _Andrew no its not broken i get no errors in cmdline
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> bbl
[06:29] <centaur5> genii: That's perfect.  Thank you for that information as I've never found anything that explained that.  Do you happen to know if there's a way to have an Ubuntu pxe install give the option of what version to install ie 32, 64, or Xubuntu?
[06:29] <neverblue> evan_, are you using wine?
[06:29] <neverblue> its a game I am assuming evan_
[06:29] <janeppo> dakira: ... ition ? I did not see a separate boot partition in his partition list.
[06:29] <j35998> I need to manually remove a kernel driver module, rmmod isn't working what folder contains the actual module bin so i can copy it out and get rid of the actual module, i need to remove rt2570 it's not needed an interfering with another device
[06:29] <me_> me@michilaptop:~$ sudo umount /media/cdrom
[06:29] <me_> umount: /media/cdrom: not mounted
[06:29] <_Andrew> evan_: try bringing down the console and typing "connect 0.0.0.0" change the 0s to an ip address of a server
[06:30] <neverblue> me_, finish the other commands.....
[06:30] <genii> centaur5: For that you want to make a custom initrd
[06:30] <me_> neverblue: done. nothing hapened
[06:30] <neverblue> cd /media
[06:30] <neverblue> then ls
[06:30] <neverblue> and see what you have in there
[06:31] <me_> neverblue: cdrom  cdrom0 as i told u before
[06:31] <evan_> _Andrew can you explain this a little more? -> try bringing down the console and typing "connect 0.0.0.0" change the 0s to an ip address of a server
[06:31] <neverblue> sudo nano /etc/fstab
[06:31] <Gentine> Do I need to instal chipset drivers for ubuntu?
[06:31] <_Andrew> me_: What kind of cd are you looking at? Is it a VCD?
[06:31] <Kyahx> Anyone have any idea why the Ubuntu Live installer would bail out before installing grub?
[06:31] <dakira> janeppo: right.. /boot is on his regular root partition.. but the /boot directory is not accessible.. because it is a "weird file" (according to rm).. so I assumed his partition has errors, which is why we are checking it now
[06:31] <GazVezir> hi
[06:31] <janeppo> dakira: the argument can be a device/partition name or a mount point
[06:31] <neverblue> me_, then look for your cdrom (and the cdrom0) lines in your fstab
[06:31] <genii> centaur5: then just replace the line in the pxeboot entry with your custom initrd which has some small script of choosing which dist to install
[06:32] <neverblue> me_, pressing ctrl-x will exit nano
[06:32] <Gentine> Do I have to install chipset drivers for ubuntu?
[06:32] <evan_> open arena is a quake based linux 1ps shooter
[06:32] <_Andrew> evan_: What part are you stuck on? Navigating to connecting to a game or is it actually a problem with the game you are having?
[06:32] <centaur5> genii: Thank you, you're a genius.  :)  I know what to google for cause I've tried googling custom pxe and never found a thing.
[06:32] <Nick_Hill> Gentine, Not normally
[06:32] <me_> neverblue: /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[06:32] <Gentine> Okay, thank you.
[06:32] <dakira> janeppo: how do I get it to complete the check automatically?
[06:32] <evan_> _andrew i get stuk by the button of choosing a level it just wont go furter
[06:32] <neverblue> me_, do you have one for /media/cdrom?
[06:32] <genii> centaur5: Well, i'm not a genius. but had to deal extensively with this stuff lately so familiar with it
[06:33] <j35998> I need to remove a kernel module, so i can use my wireless device how do i do that?
[06:33] <me_> no
[06:33] <me_> neverblue: no
[06:33] <dakira> janeppo: with -a it says "Unexpected inconsistency; run fsck manually"
[06:33] <janeppo> dakira: dumb question: is he 'root' or does he 'sudo' and sometimes forget the 'sudo' ?
[06:33] <neverblue> me_, what seems to be the issue you are having?
[06:33] <me_> neverblue: ubuntu created these thwo folders automatically
[06:33] <_Andrew> evan_: So its a problem with the program. What version did you download? The latest?
[06:33] <Nick_Hill> j35998, Temporarily rmmod modulename
[06:33] <j35998> rmmod doesn't work
[06:33] <dakira> janeppo: no.. he's root
[06:33] <Nick_Hill> j35998, Maybe it is in use
[06:33] <evan_> _Andrew , i asume i used apt-get
[06:33] <j35998> it is
[06:34] <centaur5> genii: I can't believe how hard it is to find documentation on doing weird stuff like that.
[06:34] <me_> neverblue: if i try to mount my dvd device i got this err: mount: special device /dev/hda does not exist
[06:34] <janeppo> dakira: what do you mean by complete automatically?
[06:34] <j35998> but if i remove the device then is says the module doesn't exist at all
[06:34] <Nick_Hill> j35998, ifconfig ethx down, checl usage in the second column in rmmod listing
[06:34] <neverblue> why are you mounting your DVD device?
[06:34] <Nick_Hill> j35998, s/rmmod/lsmod
[06:34] <genii> centaur5: I had mush trial and error to find out :)
[06:34] <_Andrew> evan_: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[06:34] <genii> much, even
[06:34] <dakira> janeppo: and /boot is really messed up.. reconfiguring the kernel-image gave the message "/boot is a file and not a directory"
[06:34] <koper> hi :)
[06:34] <dakira> janeppo: right.. automatically
[06:34] <me_> everblue: my fstab: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/13272/
[06:35] <evan_> _Andrew feisty
[06:35] <Nick_Hill> j35998, lsmod gives 4 columns. Modulename, size?, usage count, and dependencies
[06:35] <genii> centaur5: The debian sites are generally more helpful in this particular area than the ubuntu-specific ones
[06:35] <gluttony> how can i change my file browser to PcMan
[06:36] <_Andrew> evan_: Version 0.7 of Open Arena was just released. Feisty is using version 0.6 I suggest you download the latest version as it has numerous bug fixes and more maps
[06:36] <genii> centaur5: eg:, pxeboot modding, dhcp server oddball configs, etc
[06:36] <neverblue> me_, answer the question please

[06:37] <me_> neverblue: sry i am not very good in english. so u want to know what i think the issue is?
[06:37] <neverblue> me_,  why are you mounting your DVD device?
[06:37] <dex> join #ubuntu.pl
[06:37] <Nick_Hill> j35998, Once you have rmmodded modules which depend on the one which you have running, and it is not in use, it can be safely removed.
[06:37] <_Andrew> evan_: You can download the deb files for the latest version of open area from here.. http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=OpenArena

[06:37] <Dr_Link> How easy is it installing Ubuntu and Windows XP on the same machine? I already have XP on this laptop I'm on...
[06:37] <janeppo> dakira: any idea about the cause of the damage: disk old age or 'user error' ?
[06:37] <gluttony> how can i change my default file browser?
[06:38] <me_> neverblue: thx but the germans arent as good as u are ;)
[06:38] <neverblue> me_ :)
[06:38] <Nick_Hill> gluttony, I've never used pcman, but first install it sudo aptitude install pcmanfm , then launch it. File browse away!
[06:38] <Kyahx> hmm, ubitquity keeps bailing during the last part of installation =/
[06:38] <Sunny_Shin> Hi all. Is there someone to tell me what the Linux-Image-Server is?
[06:38] <j35998> This is my lsmod output for the driver I need to remove "rt2570                186432  1 "
[06:39] <stuart-> oh no. if i wanna change my intel to amd, does that mean a reinstall?
[06:39] <radioman> hey
[06:39] <me_> neverblue: why i mount my dvd device? because i want to find files on the dvd? or whatch a film. or burn something? ^^ i dont thing that was what u wanted to know sry
[06:39] <evan_> _Andrew i downloaded a tarbal how do i install it after unpacking it?
[06:39] <Nick_Hill> j35998, is it used by mii?
[06:39] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: It was simple for me but I made sure I had some leftover harddrive space before I started. You could run into problems if you're resizing your NTFS partition
[06:39] <mrwho> Can anyone tell me how I could go about getting my chipset for my Creative Labs soundcard
[06:39] <Dr_Link> I haven't partitioned yet
[06:39] <_Andrew> evan_: No need just download the deb files from the getdeb link I sent you
[06:39] <j35998> how can i tell?
[06:39] <Dr_Link> I am way to scared to use FDisk.
[06:39] <neverblue> me_, yes, it is, cd /media/cdrom0
[06:39] <poolie> has anyone else noticed that evince seems to be a lot slower it gutsy?
[06:39] <gluttony> Nick_Hill; i installed it through synaptic, but i can only run it from applications
[06:40] <neverblue> me_, then ls
[06:40] <_Andrew> evan_: This will install it automatically for you like apt does
[06:40] <Nick_Hill> mrwho, if it is PCI, it should auto-detect and install drivers
[06:40] <Sunny_Shin> Hi all. Can anyone tell me what the Linux-Image-Server is?
[06:40] <Dr_Link> isn't there a Ubuntu partition manager or something like that?
[06:40] <_Andrew> evan_: Make sure you remove the old open arena first
[06:40] <mrwho> Nick: I need it for my mic
[06:40] <Kyahx> Dr_Link: yes, the ubunt installer can parition your drive for you during isntall
[06:40] <me_> neverblue: but its emtpy. doesnt matter which dvd or cd i take in my device
[06:40] <Dr_Link> I think I'll order the disks.
[06:40] <Dr_Link> ...
[06:40] <Dr_Link> have them shipped to me.
[06:41] <Kyahx> *shrug* why not just download and burn?
[06:41] <j35998> it's a usb device, which has drivers but they are not working right and Im trying to remove them so i can use ndiswrapper
[06:41] <neverblue> me_, new install of ubuntu ?
[06:41] <Nick_Hill> gluttony, I don;t understand what you need. A file manager will always be launched from somewhere Either a menu, or a desktop icon, or a launcher icon.
[06:41] <dakira> janeppo: according to him the disk is about 2 years old.. so it should be fine
[06:41] <me_> everblue: doesnt fix it. its a new fresh installation. and i installed id 3 times before. (cause i wanted to try the different versions) and there was always the same issue
[06:42] <me_> everblue. *it ^^
[06:42] <alesan> hi, how do I uncompress a initrd.img file to see what;s inside?
[06:42] <neverblue> me_, which ISE?
[06:42] <neverblue> ISO*
[06:42] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: Ubuntu has a partition manager called Gparted. If you want to try Ubuntu without installing you can just pop in the CD there is no need to install it. You could also try Ubuntu in VMware.
[06:42] <me_> neverblue: ubuntu 7.04 atm
[06:42] <Dr_Link> I don't trust VMWare.
[06:42] <neverblue> me_, you need to repair your mount (/etc/fstab)
[06:42] <Kyahx> VirtualBox then :P
[06:42] <Sunny_Shin> Can Anyone tell me what linux-image-server is?
[06:43] <neverblue> !linux-image-server | Sunny_Shin
[06:43] <me_> neverblue: hm. k and how? or what shall i repair.
[06:43] <me_> neverblue. because i thought is another prob if my dvd device isnt listed in /dev/
[06:43] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: Then you can just put the CD in your drive. It will load up Ubuntu but it will be slower then it would be if you had installed it. You can also download programs with apt-get without needing to install Ubuntu so if there is something you wanted to try without installing it is possible to do it.
[06:43] <neverblue> me_, first you need to sudo mount /dev/(your DVD device) /media/dvd
[06:43] <Nick_Hill> Sunny_Shin, Could it be a linux kernel metapackage pointing to the latest kernel version especially suitable for servers?
[06:44] <neverblue> me_, so you need to cd /dev
[06:44] <Dr_Link> So I shut down my computer, put Ubuntu in the drive, and then start it up with the CD loaded in?
[06:44] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: yes
[06:44] <Sunny_Shin> I don't know well... That's why I am asking..
[06:44] <Nick_Hill> Sunny_Shin, According tot he package info:This package will always depend on the latest kernel image available for Server Equipment
[06:44] <Dr_Link> Can you install Ubuntu while you're inside Windows?
[06:44] <janeppo> sunny_shin: it is a package containing the linux kernel, modules and boot files for the -server- version of Ubuntu
[06:45] <neverblue> me_, then ls -la > ~/Desktop/pastebin.txt
[06:45] <neverblue> me_, take that pastein.txt and put it on pastebin
[06:45] <centaur5> genii: Well I'm just trying to learn how to do all of it so I can make things faster and more convenient. Also my apt-cache server has saved 5 gigs of downloading from Ubuntu so far.
[06:45] <Sunny_Shin> Thanks,
[06:45] <me_> neverblue: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/13269/
[06:45] <Nick_Hill> Sunny_Shin, This is probably a regular kernel with different time slice scheduling.
[06:45] <stuart-> Dr_Link, just take the leap of faith. reboot with ubuntu cd.
[06:45] <Dr_Link> .
[06:45] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: There is a beta installer called Wubi (http://wubi-installer.org/) that allows you to installed Ubuntu in windows.
[06:45] <gluttony> ok, i keep getting disconected, some im gonna ask again. how do i change my default file browser?
[06:45] <me_> neverblue: there is no dvd device thats my prob i think :(
[06:46] <Dr_Link> I'm serious... I'd like to install it WITH Windows still on my hard drive.
[06:46] <neverblue> me_, I think your right
[06:46] <dxdt> gluttony: hmm that is interesting.  From what to what?  Like nautilus to Konqueror or something like that?
[06:46] <stuart-> Dr_Link, shouldn't be a problem partitioning with the live cd installer if you're already familiar with windows
[06:46] <me_> neverblue: yep and thats why i am asking here. dont know how to fix this :(
[06:46] <neverblue> me_, internal, or external DVD drive?
[06:46] <me_> neverblue. internal
[06:46] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: That is not a problem. Both can sit side by side.
[06:46] <Dr_Link> :D
[06:47] <neverblue> me_, and BIOS sees it? (on your last boot)
[06:47] <Dr_Link> My parents paid me good money to get this laptop.
[06:47] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, There are Linux distros which can work with an image inside a Fat32 partition.
[06:47] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, But normally, we re-partition.
[06:47] <Dr_Link> I'm on NTFS, Nick_Hill.
[06:47] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, OOPS
[06:47] <Dr_Link> heh.
[06:47] <me_> everblue: yes also does windows and the ubuntu installation worked fine with this device
[06:47] <Dr_Link> Anyway.
[06:47] <poolie> fwiw my problem was bug 122786
[06:47] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, NTFS support is much better these days, but has been very hairy.
[06:47] <gluttony> dxdt, from what ever ubuntu default is to PcMan
[06:48] <neverblue> me_, then ubuntu should have set it up for you
[06:48] <dxdt> Dr_Link: Ok, the big problem with that is that your hard drive might not be partioned correctly.  Ubuntu will repartition it then is all.  It is suggest you back up your files just in case, however.  Also most laptops come with the cd or have the cd key on the bottom of the laptop so it is all good to go in case you have to reinstall.  Nothing is permament
[06:48] <neverblue> me_, are you sure you only have one image drive?
[06:48] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, If you have a spare hard drive, you can make an exact copy of your windows hard drive before trying to re-partition.
[06:48] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: To make sure you have the least amount of problems make sure you have about 3 gigs or more which is not formatted on the hard drive and that windows is installed first.
[06:48] <me_> neverblue: i got only one dvd drive if u mean that
[06:49] <Dr_Link> Windows IS installed first.
[06:49] <Dr_Link> I'm talking on the computer that I want to install Ubuntu on.
[06:49] <me_> neverblue: one harddisk and one dvd drive
[06:49] <neverblue> me_, yes, thats what I mean, but do you also have other media drives, CDrom?
[06:49] <me_> neverblue: the harddisk is sata if this helps
[06:49] <me_> neverblue: no
[06:49] <me_> neverblue: its a new laptop
[06:49] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, I am not sure if I am getting in half way through the conversation, but the Ubuntu live CD installer can shrink your windows partition to make space for a native Linux partition. Recommend backup data first.
[06:50] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: I would suggest just try loading up the CD and playing with that first. If you like it then install it
[06:50] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, Once windows partition shrank, and Ubuntu installed, you can dual boot.
[06:50] <Dr_Link> OK.
[06:50] <dxdt> gluttony: I'm not entirely sure, have you installed it already with aptitude?
[06:50] <Dr_Link> I am assuming with the dual boot ready,
[06:50] <xtcpants> wats uo
[06:50] <Nick_Hill> Dr_Link, Boot selector comes up first. Select Ubuntu or windows.
[06:50] <Dr_Link> a boot menu will appear and it will ask me if I want to boot into Ubuntu or WinXP.
[06:50] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: Ubuntu sets up the dual boot for you
[06:51] <Dr_Link> Is that correct?
[06:51] <DShepherd> Is there an app that i can use to convert a video that is in .ogg format to avi or mpeg or something else?
[06:51] <_Andrew> Dr_Link: yes
[06:51] <Nick_Hill> DShepherd, I use ffmpeg.
[06:51] <gluttony> dxdt. i installed it through synaptic
[06:51] <xtcpants> how do i change to efnet
[06:51] <neverblue> me_, cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info
[06:51] <DShepherd> Nick_Hill, ok. is it in the ubuntu repos?
[06:51] <neverblue> me_ bbiab
[06:51] <sbarn> i actually hope a linux distro gets vista integration soon and just use the vista bootloader if they choose to keep windows
[06:51] <Nick_Hill> DShepherd, yes
[06:51] <dxdt> gluttony: http://www.enricozini.org/2006/tips/pcmanfm-nautilus.html
[06:52] <_Andrew> DShepherd: I don't know about an app but I know you can do it in the command line.
[06:52] <me_> neverblue: cat: /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info: No such file or directory
[06:52] <IceLink> memeep
[06:52] <Nick_Hill> sbarn, Is the windows bootloader stated to support non-microsoft operating systems?
[06:53] <Nick_Hill> sbarn, If it is an un-documented feature, MS may change that and cause system not to dual boot.
[06:53] <sbarn> Nick_Hill: yes the vista one is loads better than xp's...take a look at Bootmg (I think its called). it has options to add linux/mac etc. installations to the boot menu
[06:53] <Anlar> Nick_Hill: it supports other operating systems, in fact it is often the recommended way for booting up linux etc
[06:53] <IceLink> can anybody tell me how to make java work [in firefox] ?
[06:53] <janeppo> Dr_Link: sorry to interrupt -- AFAIK Windows XP Professional itself can also shrink a NTFS partition
[06:53] <Kyahx> Found the problem: the ubuntu gui installer dosent check to see if the partition your trying to install too actually has enough space >.<  and it fails silently if it runs out
[06:53] <sbarn> it supports other booting, just MS doesn't provide a graphical tool to do so. It all can be done via command line or the 3rd party boot tool I just mentioned
[06:53] <Dr_Link> This is Home Edition. >_<
[06:55] <_Andrew> sbarn: Thats only useful if you also run windows. Some people don't run windows at all.
[06:55] <janeppo> nevertheless: try right click Computer, choose 'manage'. Maybe you find 'disk management' or the like
[06:55] <Nick_Hill> What license is bootmgr under?
[06:55] <fruitbatJim> if 'cat some text >> somefile' appends some text to the end of somefile, is there a similar command to prepend (if that's a word) some text at the beginning of somefile?
[06:55] <wckdkl0wn> if i install windows xp on innotek virtual box.. would that allow me to install photoshop cs2 on it like it was actually windows?
[06:55] <sbarn> _Andrew: right, that's why I said instead of using grub/lilo a distro (if they decide to keep the windows part.) it should add itself to the vista bootloader so the user doesn't have to deal w/several screens
[06:56] <aguitel> anyone speak spanish?
[06:56] <ShackJac1> wckdkl0wn: Yep...
[06:56] <ConstyXIV> fruitbatJim: you could always cat fileb >> filea
[06:56] <Nick_Hill> wckdkl0wn, If a virtualised device supports windows, it is likely it will support any windows software.

[06:57] <Paddy_EIRE> wckdkl0wn: why use cs2 aint that just a performance hog... always found 7 to be better or better yet use gimp :D
[06:57] <ShackJac1> Kind of a longshot question (not_ubuntu specific)... Any KXMAME (sdl) users know how to get the games playing full screen that actually stretches to the width/height of the screen? I can go full screen but games don't take advantage of the space?
[06:57] <Nick_Hill> wckdkl0wn, I don't think Adobe make a linux version of PS CS2. I suppose you tried to install using wine.
[06:58] <sbarn> Nick_Hill: oops sorry, tool is called easybcd and its a windows app and is closed source, but free. But I was just using it as an example to show its possible and quite easily it seems

[06:58] <wckdkl0wn> Paddy_EIRE, 7 isnt advanced enough for what i do.. and gimp is well lol too confusing
[06:58] <Billu> Hi friends
[06:58] <ConstyXIV> ShackJac1: if you ask me, it's not a bug, it's a feature :)
[06:58] <wckdkl0wn> Nick_Hill, no adobe didnt and yes i tryed with wine and its too buggy
[06:58] <r0b-> hey can someone send me there /bin/ folder?
[06:58] <Anlar> wckdkl0wn: yeah, gimp can be categorized best as toxic waste
[06:58] <Nick_Hill> sbarn, In that case, it wouldn't be useful for Linux distros.
[06:59] <Nick_Hill> wckdkl0wn, Figures.
[06:59] <DShepherd> _Andrew, ok. Thanks. Thank Nick_Hill for your help too
[06:59] <bluefox83> hey, how do i add refresh rate listings to System->preferences->Screen Resolution ?
[06:59] <wckdkl0wn> Anlar, adobe needs to make a version of photoshop for linux lol
[06:59] <Nick_Hill> DShepherd, You're welcome!
[06:59] <Stev> Hi, i'm writing a little prog, it crashed (Segmentation fault (core dumped), where is core file??
[06:59] <Paddy_EIRE> wckdkl0wn: there is an addon for gimp called gimpshop which makes it more friendly for windows/photoshop users
[06:59] <Anlar> wckdkl0wn: no, they don't need, to be exact. they can pick themselves what to do and they pick paying markets
[06:59] <sbarn> Nick_Hill: not that specific tool but there is a standard way to do it I believe. They just put a graphical, windows-ased tool on it. There's no inhibiting reason linux distros can't execute the commands themselves
[06:59] <ShackJac1> ConstyXIV: Cute ;). It has options like "Auto Resolution" and SDL mode (numbers) but they don't do nothin' - guess those are "features" too ;)
[07:00] <_Andrew> Stev: Try /var/log/
[07:00] <Nick_Hill> sbarn, So MS-Windows installes the bootstrap code on MBR. Bootstrap code reads config on NTFS file system. Provides menu.
[07:00] <Nick_Hill> sbarn, Rather like Grub.
[07:00] <sbarn> Nick_Hill: yes
[07:01] <r0b-> screw it ill install it in VM and copy the files i need
[07:01] <IICybeII> When I enable Desktop Effects all the windows-bars disappear, how do I fix this?
[07:01] <Stev> _Andrew: nope...
[07:01] <_Andrew> wckdkl0wn: From what I heard they're releasing photoshop for linux in two years
[07:01] <Henk> Can someone help me? I was using a dual boot system win xp x64 and win xp x86 and i had no use for the x64 version so i used that space to install ubuntu but now win xp x86 isnt able to boot anymore so i guess the dual boot system was stored at the x64 partition.. How do I get x86 to appear in the grub boot menu?
[07:01] <Nick_Hill> IICybeII, Are you using Gutsy?
[07:01] <ShackJac1> !compiz | IICybeII
[07:01] <ubotu> IICybeII: 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
[07:01] <Billu> ...................
[07:01] <IICybeII> Nick_Hill what is Gutsy? I've tried installing Beryl but it was the same
[07:01] <Azhi_Dahaka> Hi
[07:02] <ConstyXIV> IICybeII: the current testing version of ubuntu
[07:02] <Nick_Hill> IICybeII, Pre-release of next version of Ubuntu
[07:02] <Azhi_Dahaka> I have an Epson Stylus CX3900 and so far, i can't make it scan just print
[07:02] <IICybeII> No, I am not using Gutsy
[07:02] <IICybeII> I am using Feisty
[07:02] <wckdkl0wn> _Andrew, by that time they wont need to because someone would of figured out how to make it work jsut flawless on linux lol
[07:03] <Nick_Hill> IICybeII, I asked as I had same problem with Gutsy, running ATI graphics card.
[07:03] <Imitation> llCybell: you probably need emerald
[07:03] <kritzstapf> when i plugged in a hfs+-drive of a friend, it was mounted all correctly but i have no rights to read a few files, how to fix this?
[07:03] <bluefox83> you're gonna have problems running things in alpha software >.>
[07:03] <IICybeII> Imitation - I already have emerald installed
[07:04] <Imitation> llCybell: have you tried launching it manually
[07:04] <Wayfarer> I have a sound issue
[07:04] <Nick_Hill> kritzstapf, sudo mount -oremount,uid=xxx gid=xxx mountpoint
[07:04] <_Andrew> wckdkl0wn: Possibly but my photoshop boss would be easy to switch over if it were available.
[07:04] <IICybeII> Imitation - How would you like me to do that?
[07:04] <Wayfarer> Or not really an issue, more like an interesting problem
[07:05] <Imitation> alt+f2 then do "emerald"
[07:05] <Nick_Hill> kritzstapf, sudo mount -oremount,uid=xxx,gid=xxx mountpoint where xxx is your user id and group id
[07:05] <damageDOne> HI ALL, just a quick question... can everybody right-click on the internet connection icon in their taskbar and click on Connection Info to view their IP address? Or is it specific to certain network cards? I'm writing a quick howto for a friend who uses Ubuntu.
[07:05] <_Andrew> kritzstapf: Try right clicking -> properties -> permissions
[07:05] <kritzstapf> Nick_Hill: and how to get me uid and gid? :)
[07:06] <kritzstapf> _Andrew: it says that im not the owner ;)
[07:06] <ConstyXIV> damageDOne: i think so, but a surefire way to do it is "ifconfig (interface)" in a terminal
[07:06] <Wayfarer> I have dual booted my computer with Vista, and the volume difference is huge.  On Ubuntu i have to crank my speakers to hear stuff, but Vista they speakers only have to be just on
[07:06] <Nick_Hill> damageDOne, not me. I use static IP. May have somehign to do with it.
[07:06] <_Andrew> damageDOne: I can't mine is greyed out
[07:06] <IICybeII> Imitation - I just enabled Desktop Effects, the window bars went away, And then i ran Emerald manually as you said... Nothing happened :(
[07:06] <Nick_Hill> uid and gid are usually the same as the username ou logged in as
[07:06] <Nick_Hill> kritzstapf, uid and gid are usually the same as the username ou logged in as
[07:06] <kritzstapf> okay
[07:06] <damageDOne> Cheers all. I wanted to avoid command line but ifconfig it is.
[07:06] <kritzstapf> thought it were numbers
[07:06] <_Andrew> damageDOne: I can right click -> properties -> support on the other connection status's though
[07:07] <Nick_Hill> kritzstapf, It should interpret.
[07:07] <me_> neverblue: anyway... thx for ur help got to go
[07:07] <damageDOne> Okay
[07:08] <sudeep> why is this happening.. .. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31929/
[07:08] <Imitation> llCybell: if you are on a nvidia card, you need to add some things to your xorg.conf. atm i don't know exactly which.
[07:08] <kritzstapf> Nick_Hill: user and group are still "99" :/
[07:09] <pete83> sudeep, check your repositories maybe?
[07:09] <IceLink> can anybody tell me how i make firefox be able to show java applets?
[07:09] <sudeep> pete83 how is that..
[07:09] <IICybeII> Okay Imitation, I will try to find out then
[07:09] <kritzstapf> hm, ill use sudo nautilus..
[07:10] <sintfix> fsck always checking on boot ( ubuntu 7.04) and dosfsck finds that " boot sector and its backup aren't same" how can I rid of this?
[07:10] <AngryElf_> Why on earth would a page render differently in Ubuntu-Firefox and Windows-Firefox?
[07:10] <sbarn> lol
[07:10] <PriceChild> !java | IceLink
[07:10] <ubotu> IceLink: 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
[07:10] <_Andrew> IceLink: Applications -> Add/Remove -> search for java plugin for mozilla firefox
[07:10] <Anlar> AngryElf_: how differently? at least, different fonts perhaps?
[07:10] <j35998> does anybody know how to black list a driver?
[07:10] <pete83> sudeep, paste the contents of this file:  sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:11] <wckdkl0wn> AngryElf, do ur updates.. i had the problem where pages looked totally diff til i updated
[07:11] <JoeBlacken> hi, how long is the support for 7.04?
[07:11] <AngryElf_> wckdkl0wn: Anlar: fairly complicated, but, flash items in Ubunut don't render with the correct z-index -- works fine in the same version in Windows (2.0.0.5)
[07:11] <Anlar> JoeBlacken: it ends practically when the back end of the seller's car disappears from sight
[07:11] <wckdkl0wn> AngryElf, do ur updates.. i had the problem where pages looked totally diff til i updated
[07:11] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[07:12] <AngryElf_> wckdkl0wn: i'm gonna update past 2.0.0.5?
[07:12] <sudeep> pete83, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31930/
[07:13] <giany911> hello guys, with what can i open a .uif image  ? .. or at least convert it to iso
[07:13] <Yasuo> hi
[07:13] <netcatc> hello all
[07:13] <dakira> JoeBlacken: until the next release+1
[07:13] <IceLink> PriceChild & _Andrew: thanks i think i'll have it in 2 minutes
[07:14] <JoeBlacken> dakira, when is that 1-year or 2-years?
[07:14] <dakira> wouldn't use it for a server, but there is no reason not to use it for a desktop, because you can always upgrade to the next release
[07:14] <Nick_Hill> giany911, In my experience, many CD writing programs call ISOs by funny filename extensions. Rename it to an ISO then try to write it with k3b
[07:14] <Anlar> JoeBlacken: 6 months
[07:14] <giany911> ill try that nick_hill thanx
[07:15] <dakira> JoeBlacken: the next release it gutsy (october this year).. and the release after that will be in april 2008
[07:15] <netcatc> help me with it..
[07:15] <netcatc>  libm.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:15] <sbarn> ok can anyone explain to my wth is going on. I just installed ubuntu 7.04 (have installed older versions on it before) on my dell e310, only difference bn the last times is this new version and I also added a nvidia gforce 5500 to it. It installed but keyboard has a MAJOR delay upon sending and seeing input and when I login the screen hangs there. If I try running any commands in the console it hangs there without giving me any input.
[07:15] <sudeep> pete83, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31930/ whats wrong with my sources.list
[07:15] <Kimo_> ping
[07:15] <pete83> sudeep, and just to check, does anything work differently after you type:  sudo apt-get update
[07:15] <Nick_Hill> giany911, Just checked up. UIF format is compressed, so renaming probably wouldn't work.
[07:15] <_Andrew> sbarn: Maybe your harddrive is dieing
[07:15] <dakira> Anlar: nope.. the support officially stops in april 2008.. so it had one year of support (half a year after thwe next release)
[07:15] <JoeBlacken> dakira, I remember 6.06 had a LTS, when the next version of LTS is released?
[07:16] <Kimo_> I have a quick ubuntu startup question :)
[07:16] <sbarn> _Andrew: no suse worked fine and windows works fine
[07:16] <PriceChild> JoeBlacken, in about 8...9 months
[07:16] <dakira> JoeBlacken: no idea
[07:16] <bpZero> problem: ... mounted the ubuntu ext3 volume in windows, put a 2.75GB iso on the it, tried to boot ubuntu, ubuntu says it will not boot because a large file was detected and LARGE_FILES is not defined in the superblock, goes to "maintenance shell".    ... i want the iso to stay on that volume, so how do i get LARGE_FILES set in the superblock? or whatever needs to be done to make that work...
[07:16] <PriceChild> dakira, it'll be gutsy+1
[07:16] <sbarn> I also imported my account w/migration assistant..is it like broken or something? ha
[07:16] <aslam> hey... i just bought a logitech quickcam and i am having getting it to work
[07:16] <dakira> JoeBlacken: but there is no eason not to use feisty, unless you're using it on a server
[07:16] <Anlar> dakira: oh? that is for the paid support I guess.. in reality no one gives a * 2 seconds after the next one was released :) I know I know.. it's not politically correct to say it but..
[07:17] <sudeep> pete83, ya doesn't give any error... .. working fine..
[07:17] <genii> Nick_Hill: Actually iuf is a compressed iso file made with windoze program MagicISO
[07:17] <pete83> sudeep, do you mean that fixed it?
[07:17] <JoeBlacken> dakira, I use my machine as a desktop, server, and development environment
[07:18] <aslam> can some one help me resove a problem here
[07:18] <sudeep> pete83, nop
[07:18] <_Andrew> aslam: What is the problem?
[07:18] <genii> giany911: There seems to be no native uif->iso converter. If you have some windoze box download MagicISO and burn it there. Or you can take your chances running that under wine
[07:18] <HEP85> What is the difference between compiz and compiz.real binary?
[07:19] <Nick_Hill> giany911, http://iat.berlios.de/ reportedly converts uif.
[07:19] <PriceChild> HEP85, they're both binarys?
[07:19] <pace_t_zulu> if AT&T ran the highways: http://www.informationweek.com/blog/main/archives/2007/07/if_att_ran_the.html;jsessionid=JBKF53ESQRSE4QSNDLPSKH0CJUNN2JVN
[07:19] <Pici> HEP85: compiz is just a shell script that sets everything up for compiz.real and calls it with specific arguments depending on your system configuration.
[07:19] <HEP85> Pici: Thanks!
[07:19] <andrew__> Okay, question, is there any way at all to run an ATI 9200SE on Theatre out without FGLRX?
[07:19] <pete83> sudeep, hmm, try this: go to system>>administration>>Software Source  .... and then make sure everything is checked, and try selecting a different server
[07:19] <giany911> yes i googled and found the same thing ..magiciso with wine genii
[07:19] <Kimo_> okay I'll just ask---- installing windows after ubuntu dapper; ubuntu fails to start and says "cannot mount /dev/hda1 on /root: no device found." this makes sense because the ubuntu partition is /dev/hda2. my question is.. where is the mount target determined? I tried changing fstab but the same problem.
[07:20] <andrew__> GRUB
[07:20] <Spydon> Do you think ubuntu embedded will work on Neo 1973?
[07:20] <andrew__> open up your live CD and look in /boot/
[07:20] <Azhi_Dahaka> i tried everything: modifying the epson.conf, the libsane.rules files but noting
[07:20] <Kimo_> okay
[07:20] <Azhi_Dahaka> sane-find-scanner finds it, but scanimage doesnt
[07:20] <PriceChild> Spydon, we don't know until it is released.
[07:21] <Spydon> ubuntu embedded or neo 1973?
[07:21] <dakira> JoeBlacken: and is there any reason you cannot update to the next release when its out.. especially on a dev machine you would want to stay up-to-date, don't you?
[07:21] <andrew__> Kimo:  Open up Menu.lst
[07:21] <sbarn> _Andrew: hmm the startup seems to be hanging on cupsd...it doesn't say failed or pass
[07:21] <andrew__> Everything is -0
[07:21] <dakira> JoeBlacken: I only use the LTS on my server, because I don't want to touch it too often
[07:21] <andrew__> Is cupsD installed incorrectly?
[07:21] <sbarn> this is ridiculous, eveytime I install something different's wrong
[07:21] <_Andrew> sbarn: turn it off.. system->admin->services
[07:22] <Imitation> Spydon: afaik ubuntu embedded is aimed at pdas, openmoko more towards phones
[07:22] <avis> how difficult is it to send via smtp from a shell ?
[07:22] <andrew__> oh god too andrews
[07:22] <andrew__> hold on.
[07:22] <Ryo> that's better.
[07:22] <sbarn> _Andrew: I can't even login..it just stays hanging on the background screen, I can't run any programs, not even top
[07:22] <Spydon> thx for the answer Imitation
[07:22] <Spydon> bye
[07:22] <Kimo_> it says root (hd0,1)- should be /dev/hda2, I imagine.. seems to be right
[07:22] <JoeBlacken> dakira, yeah, I want to get updates, but I don't to do that every couple of months
[07:23] <_Andrew> sbarn: You could try restarting gnome.. ctrl+alt+backspace
[07:23] <Ryo> Okay, is there any way to run ATI TV out without fglrx?
[07:23] <sbarn> _Andrew: I did..it ever comes back up
[07:23] <DimitrisC> I installed pidgin and my nautilus-send-to menu was uninstalled in the process due to some bug. Is there an updated package for the nautilus-send-to feature for pidgin and feisty as in gutsy?
[07:24] <giany911> Nick_Hill that doesn't work...
[07:24] <Ryo> I tried GATOS theatre out and it doesn't work...
[07:24] <giany911> i guess i have to use magiciso under wine
[07:24] <Ryo> and no one has ever given me a single answer.
[07:24] <pete83> Ryo, you have a s-video cable?
[07:25] <Ryo> yes.
[07:25] <_Andrew> Ryo: Sorry I don't know I hope someone who does will talk to you soon
[07:25] <pete83> Ryo, you can't just plug it in and it works?
[07:25] <Ryo> I plug it in and it's all fuzzy and glitchy
[07:25] <frojnd> hello there
[07:25] <frojnd> can someone tell me how to set as first shown page in konqueror TREE LOOK ?
[07:25] <_Andrew> DimitrisC: I am confused are you using feisty or gutsy?
[07:25] <pete83> Ryo, are you saying that it does work when you use fglrx?
[07:26] <frojnd> so when I click on konqueror I can see home folder in tree view ?
[07:26] <Ryo> Yes, it does.  Unfortunately fglrx is crap.
[07:26] <DimitrisC> Andrew: Feisty
[07:26] <Ryo> and it doubles my Gamma, removes 3d support, etc.
[07:26] <pete83> Ryo, so what are you trying to use? VESA?
[07:26] <_Andrew> DimitrisC: Did you build from source?
[07:26] <Ryo> ATI xorg.
[07:26] <Lightenix> anyone knows for a terminal for serial communication ?
[07:26] <_Andrew> DimitrisC: You could have just got the deb package from getdeb.com
[07:26] <DimitrisC> Andrew: No I used synaptic. It unistalled gaim, gaim-data and nautilus-send-to
[07:27] <Lumiere> Lightenix: minicom
[07:27] <pete83> Ryo, are desktop effects or compiz or anything like that enabled?
[07:27] <bullgard4> I have just filed a Launchpad bug report only to notice that I have mis-spelled words. Can I correct the headline's text?
[07:27] <DimitrisC> Andrew: I searched ubuntu packages website and nautilus-send-to with pidgin support is only available for gutsy
[07:28] <Ryo> Nope
[07:28] <Ryo> just metacity.
[07:28] <_Andrew> DimitrisC: So you installed a Gutsy package on Feisty by modifying your sources list?
[07:28] <DimitrisC> I was just wondering if anyone came across such a package for feisty
[07:28] <fruitbatJim> how do I send a file to a remote host with ssh?
[07:28] <kalusn> does anyone know, if compiz fusion requires a lot more graphical power than beryl, or just a tiny bit more?
[07:28] <Lumiere> fruitbatJim: scp file user@host:
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> fruitbatJim:  with the 'scp' command
[07:29] <Lumiere> the : is important
[07:29] <Ryo> Kalusn:  Compiz Fusion is a step above Beryl
[07:29] <fruitbatJim> thanks
[07:29] <pete83> Ryo, so I guess there's some benefit to using fglrx after all! (sorry for the copout!)
[07:29] <Ryo> Yeah, there is a little, but the problems outweigh the benefits :/
[07:30] <wckdkl0wn> can i make a live cd of my current os the way it is?
[07:30] <crolle17> what command in bashrc is responsible for making autocompletion?
[07:30] <pete83> Ryo, besides being closed-course and lacking support for AIGLX, what is a drawback to fglrx?
[07:30] <Ram-Raid> how can i edit sources.list ?
[07:30] <kalusn> Ryo: okay, i guess there's no other way than trying testing it to see if it works..
[07:30] <crolle17> Ram-Raid, with vi or vim
[07:30] <TheGateKeeper> anyone use escputil ?  I am after the ink level
[07:30] <crolle17> or gedit...
[07:30] <Ram-Raid> [Define:]  No results found
[07:30] <Ram-Raid> yes... you are, TheGateKeeper
[07:30] <DimitrisC> Andrew: Ok I think I wasn't very clear :-) I installed pidgin in feisty. Synaptic said that in order to install pidgin it needed to remove gaim, gaim data and nautilus-send-to. I am just wondering how I can install nautilus-send-to again without removing pidgin.
[07:30] <Ram-Raid> ty
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> !easysource
[07:30] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:30] <Ryo> Double gamma, i.e. the screen is too bright, no composite support, and no 3d acceleration.
[07:31] <arcad3> is Bill Gates Dead??
[07:31] <DimitrisC> Andrew: The only nautilus-send-to package I found with pidgin support instead of gaim was for gutsy and thats no good since I am using feisty
[07:31] <Rex__> hello all.. is there a way to "ls" my IDE like I would for USB (lsusb)? I have a cdrw that is not working.
[07:31] <Ram-Raid> oh, yes... I remember
[07:31] <Ram-Raid> hello Rex__, how are you today?
[07:31] <_Andrew> DimitrisC: I am just wondering how you installed pidgin because it isn't avaliable in the feisty repository.
[07:31] <Ram-Raid> [Define:]  No results found
[07:31] <compengi> arcad3, lol
[07:31] <Ram-Raid> i aggree
[07:32] <Lightenix> what device is COM1 and COM2?
[07:32] <pete83> Ryo, can't you adjust gamma with fireglcontrol, and ... no 3d acceleration??? I use that driver for my X1300, and it has excellent (i.e. about half of windows) 3d acceleration...
[07:32] <Rex__> Ram-Raid: I am good thanks. You?
[07:32] <Ram-Raid> oh, yes... I remember
[07:32] <Ryo> Well I'm running a 9200
[07:32] <Ryo> so it doesn't work with it so well.

[07:35] <aslam_> WOW! ubuntu community is so damn supportive...
[07:35] <DimitrisC> _Andrew: Yes if I remove pidgin I can install nautilus-send-to just fine and have my menu back. I will try getdeb as well. Thnx!
[07:35] <Ram-Raid> ok

[07:36] <_Andrew> ok
[07:36] <DimitrisC> _Andrew: Thnx
[07:36] <AnAnt> how can I run a 32-bit application under the AMD64 version of ubuntu ?
[07:37] <_Andrew> AnAnt: If you are running a generic kernel then you can run both
[07:37] <scottDkoDer> Dr_Willis: ??
[07:37] <AnAnt> _Andrew: no, I cannot
[07:37] <compengi> DimitrisC, keep in mind that Pidgin or any package found on getdeb aren't official ubuntu packages, someone made them so some of them have problems after install
[07:37] <scottDkoDer> If I wanted to completely hide my panels without deleting them, how would I do that. Or if I do delete them how would I get them back? Any one??
[07:37] <Dr_Willis> scottDkoDer:  no idea then. I dont mess with gnome much. set them below the windows and maxamize the other windows perhaps.

[07:38] <DimitrisC> compengi: Thanks for the heads up
[07:38] <scottDkoDer> Dr_Willis: That's the thing; the windows only will maximize to the bottom of the panel
[07:38] <compengi> DimitrisC, no problem :)
[07:39] <scottDkoDer> Stormx2: Want to use vbox in complete fullscreen, and I'm only two slivers away.
[07:39] <pete83> scottDkoDer: can you just autohide them in the right-click>>properties dialogue?
[07:40] <scottDkoDer> pete83: Yes but they will not completely hide
[07:40] <scottDkoDer> pete83: It leaves two slivers of the panels
[07:40] <AnAnt> _Andrew: did you try running ELF 32-bit binary under amd64 linux ?
[07:40] <pete83> scottDkoDer: hey, I have a better idea... is it virtualbox you are using? and what is your username on ubuntu?
[07:41] <scottDkoDer> If I deleted my panels how could I get them back?

[07:54] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:54] <j0nas`> did you have to do anything special to make it work? or did it just work out of the box?
[07:54] <merlion> pete83: which one you choose?
[07:54] <xof7_> Jack_Sparrow: doesnt that involve using ndiswrapper?
[07:54] <_Andrew> zimmo: What does it say?
[07:55] <crolle17> Stormx2, do you know what could be the reason?
[07:55] <Jack_Sparrow> xof7_: Not that I am aware of..
[07:55] <pete83> merlion: I don't know, a different one, then "sudo apt-get update" then see if it works
[07:55] <dxdt> j0nas`: ocassionally that happens to me.  It worked out of the box and has gotten better using each new version of ubuntu.  Do you use network manager or anything?  Sometimes that used to mess up my suspend though it doesn't now
[07:55] <ConstyXIV> xof7_: nope, bcm43xx and fwcutter are a native broadcom driver on linux (finally)
[07:55] <zimmo> it says i have to install this three first
[07:55] <pete83> merlion: I use the Main one
[07:55] <zimmo> but i can not install them by the apt-get
[07:55] <Jack_Sparrow> xof7_: I run several bcm43xx wifi
[07:55] <Pici> zimmo: libgl1 is not a real package. You need to install libgl1-mesa-glide3, libgl1-mesa-glx, or libgl1-mesa-swx11 to satisfy it.
[07:55] <zimmo> ok pici
[07:55] <knielsen> Anyone know how to change which program handles a mime type (to use another default among multiple possibilities, or add custom types) ?

[07:56] <zimmo> it fails with this error: that it depends on blablabla
[07:56] <xof7_> Jack_Sparrow: eerr whats the command I need to use
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> xof7_: load it and run it...
[07:56] <dxdt> knielsen: usually you can just right click the file and do it from there in its properties
[07:56] <pete83> scottDkoDer: by the way, using AIGLX or XGL?
[07:56] <zimmo> and then i try to get the blablabla files and it fails again
[07:56] <genii> xof7_: Perhaps follow the steps here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[07:56] <_Andrew> knielsen: you mean right click -> properties -> open with ?
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> xof7_: Use synaptic and search for fwcutter
[07:56] <j0nas`> dxdt: i dont use network manager... just the default network-admin (and the little taskbar applet it spawns)
[07:56] <zimmo> is there another way to install the opengl besides apt-get?
[07:56] <j0nas`> perhaps it works with some hardware and not with other?
[07:56] <merlion> anyone knows which version or company type of java works for feisty fawn PPC?
[07:56] <knielsen> dxdt, _Andrew: I mean I want to make something else the default (double click), or add a new type
[07:56] <toed> if I plug an external monitor onto my laptop and hit the keyboard shortcut to switch to it, how come I can't switch to the external monitor's native res?
[07:56] <ConstyXIV> xof7_: follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty?highlight=%28bcm43xx%29
[07:56] <j0nas`> i've got a recent sony notebook
[07:57] <dxdt> j0nas`: you could try disconnecting via the applet before you suspend.  That may help.  It did for me in the past.
[07:57] <knielsen> I think there is some global mime type map, used in many places ?
[07:57] <j0nas`> okay i will give that a try
[07:57] <j0nas`> to me, suspend to ram is a must-have feature
[07:57] <ConstyXIV> xof7_: follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty?highlight=%28bcm43xx%29
[07:57] <Jack_Sparrow> genii: He said not using ndiswrapper....   You no longer need it
[07:57] <sarixe> anyone know how to set a vfat partition's title under linux?
[07:57] <xof7_> running fwcutter worked thanks
[07:57] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[07:58] <scottDkoDer> pete83: fglrx+Xgl
[07:58] <xof7_> Everything that I was googling brought up ndiswrapper and I wanna be able to use airodump with it
[07:58] <scottDkoDer> pete83: How did you know I was using ATI?
[07:58] <genii> You still need the firmware
[07:58] <pete83> scottDkoDer: lol, why do you think I knew that?
[07:59] <LordThunder> 102355 frames in 5.0 seconds = 20470.950 FPS .. yay, got my 8800 working :P
[07:59] <scottDkoDer> pete83: Well nVidia never uses Xgl or AIGLX right?
[07:59] <sarixe> wrong
[07:59] <pete83> nVidia or Intel would use AIGLX
[08:00] <ShackJac1> scottDkoDer: Right... They can, but Nvidia has it's own built in thingie...
[08:00] <sarixe> nvidia is the one that uses aiglx, but ati has yet to come out with that support, scottDkoDer
[08:00] <scottDkoDer> pete83: Well Xgl??
[08:00] <shiv_j> I have a bunch of files with say xyz in there name. I want to move them to a certain folder which contain this name. How do I do it using krename or any ther program. Plz advise. I have been struggling for quite some time now
[08:00] <pete83> scottDkoDer: ah, well I too am stuck with fglrx, so I am aware of XGL
[08:00] <scottDkoDer> sarixe: wrong. ATI has an AIGLX driver
[08:00] <sarixe> scottDkoDer : since when?
[08:01] <rmullins> Can anybody help me with logging into the Ubuntu forums?
[08:01] <pete83> scottDkoDer: fglrx cannot use AIGLX, since it lacks support for texture_from_pixmap
[08:01] <ShackJac1> !seveas
[08:01] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[08:01] <scottDkoDer> sarixe: since thay've developed the AIGLX driver
[08:01] <ConstyXIV> shiv_j: as in, they all say xyz in the beginning or end?
[08:01] <gimpii> rmullins: did you register?
[08:01] <T-Connect> AIGLX driver??? I thought it is a fglrx driver.
[08:01] <sarixe> same
[08:01] <rmullins> gmpii: yes, this has happened before.
[08:02] <gimpii> clean your cookies
[08:02] <rmullins> gimpii: wont let me log in, and wont send me an email
[08:02] <scottDkoDer> Well, AIGLX isn't the driver, but closely related
[08:02] <sarixe> either way, does anyone know how to set the disk title on a vfat partition? (3rd time asking)
[08:02] <zimmo> Do I need to install anything before this 3 opengl files???
[08:02] <gimpii> also did you restore a session in firefox?
[08:02] <rmullins> gimpii: yes,
[08:02] <scottDkoDer> Mesa is the free driver
[08:03] <scottDkoDer> or open
[08:03] <ShackJac1> Re Nividia and AIGLX: With the newest NVIDIA drivers, the OpenGL calls are supported in the driver itself, with no need for X.org (version 7 and newer) to provide the indirect rendering facility
[08:03] <ConstyXIV> scottDkoDer: mesa is software OpenGL
[08:03] <zimmo> so what is the mesa file?!
[08:03] <gimpii> Well bookmark it, destroy the session and try a new one there was an issue like that before hand, the only I knew how to fix it was to destroy the cookies and the session
[08:03] <zimmo> it is not working anyway
[08:03] <rmullins> ok, trying thhat now.
[08:04] <LordThunder> too bad Creative X-Fi is no go in Linux :(
[08:04] <ortega10> is there any way too boot ubuntu from a usb drive, with a computer that doesn't support booting from usb, using some sort of bridge (floppy-usb) software... like smart boot manager for floppy-cd?
[08:04] <ortega10> *to boot
[08:04] <rmullins> last time this happened I came here and one of the ops contacted an admin, and they had to change some weird stuff on my account.
[08:04] <pete83> sarixe: personally, I don't know.. but see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=65830
[08:04] <superman> hey can soem1 help me perminantly mount my windows hard drive please?
[08:05] <LordThunder> ortega10: in the old days it would work by cat-ing a kernel image to a floppy
[08:05] <LordThunder> ortega10: I haven't tried that trick recently though
[08:05] <merlion> java applet cannot work on firefox, it is completely useless for installing ubutun for me
[08:05] <ortega10> LordThunder: thanks a lot

[08:12] <DarthVad0r> My server is hacked
[08:12] <rmullins> Ryo: ok
[08:12] <DarthVad0r> Look at www.bb83.de
[08:12] <DarthVad0r> Need urgent help
[08:12] <_Andrew> !patient | aslam_
[08:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about patient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:13] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, backup any data you can scavenge, then reinstall
[08:13] <r0b-> !/bin
[08:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:13] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, check _all_ data you recover to make sure it isn't infected with anything.
[08:13] <DarthVad0r> Any idea how he has done it?
[08:13] <rmullins> Ryo: Still cant find screens.
[08:13] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, check /var/log bash histories etc.
[08:14] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, I'd suggest you take it offline.
[08:14] <_Andrew> DarthVad0r: One can only figure that out with research
[08:14] <dougsko> DarthVad0r: probly some dumb sql injection or something
[08:14] <Ryo> hmmm... how long have you had this error and what seemed to cause it if anything?
[08:14] <rmullins> (EE) VESA(0): No Matching Screens found.
[08:14] <_Andrew> DarthVad0r: Are you sure someone hacked your server and its not just got some errors and problems?
[08:14] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, probably a joomla vulnerability
[08:14] <DarthVad0r> he hasnt done it by ssh
[08:15] <rmullins> RYO:  I tried installing ubuntu, and it wont actually go to the live cd.  It loads everything and then pumps me to 'busy box'.  So I installed in text mode.
[08:15] <DarthVad0r> but all my subdomains show the same
[08:15] <DarthVad0r> all joomla subdomains
[08:15] <DarthVad0r> -.-
[08:15] <Ryo> Okay, you're going to have to do a driver update then.
[08:15] <rmullins> hrmm ok.
[08:15] <fanatico> jest tu jakis polak?
[08:15] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, as I have said, I would suggest you wipe and start again.

[08:16] <rmullins> Ryo: apt-get update  ?
[08:16] <DarthVad0r> i don't think i have to reinstall if its a joomla vulnerability
[08:16] <Ryo> yeah
[08:16] <Ryo> and then apt-get upgrade
[08:16] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, how do you know?
[08:16] <seawolf> hello everyone
[08:16] <dougsko> DarthVad0r: you really gotta keep up with the updates with CMSs like that. theyre a big target for loser kiddies
[08:16] <rmullins> Ryo: failed to fetch.
[08:16] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, anything could have happenned really...?
[08:16] <_Andrew> !hi | seawolf
[08:16] <ubotu> seawolf: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:16] <rmullins> Ryo: I dont think its connecting
[08:16] <tofaffy_> A program is using my sound card...but I don' thave anything that is using it that is visible, is ther ea way to fix this?
[08:17] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: yes...  just dont change partition config
[08:17] <keito> anyone use(d) gtkorphan???
[08:17] <Ryo> download xserver-xorg-video-intel
[08:17] <keito> should I remove all orphaned files?
[08:17] <DarthVad0r> @ PriceChild because all Joomla Subdomains show these error, all other Subdomains work correctly
[08:17] <tofaffy_> Jack_Sparrow, what if it's a different sized paritions?
[08:17] <seawolf> I have a question. Why unbuntu 7.04 recognized my ide disk as sda?
[08:17] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: You will need to mess with paths and such if trying to restore from live session
[08:17] <rmullins> Ryo:  I dont think the system can connect.
[08:17] <_Andrew> seawolf: Could you explain alittle?
[08:17] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: Different size.. no problem
[08:17] <PriceChild> seawolf, because "libata" has taken over of all drives... its normal, don't worry :)
[08:17] <Pir8> howdy folks.
[08:18] <julesa> I'd like to get a list of packages that are available for upgrade after running apt-get update. From a script. Is there a way to say "apt-get upgrade", have it say "n" so I can pipe it to mail?
[08:18] <tofaffy_> thanks ja
[08:18] <Ryo> then how are you IRCing?
[08:18] <[ifr0g] > Help ! /bin/sh: scripts/mod/modpost: not found ...
[08:18] <keito> can anyone help me with orphaned files????
[08:18] <PriceChild> DarthVad0r, have you done a complete audit?
[08:18] <PriceChild> keito, be careful
[08:18] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: Adding one below your install will cause you to make some adjustments to grub/boot etc
[08:18] <keito> PriceChild: how come?
[08:18] <Pir8> getting frustrated trying to setup Radeom 9600XT with 7.04 and getting compiz as well as dual monitor display working...
[08:18] <PriceChild> keito, watch exactly what is being uninstalled... obviously don't uninstall anything you want to keep.
[08:18] <Ryo> Okay, what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[08:18] <seawolf> PriceChild, there's no any affection to the io performance?
[08:18] <thomas_> Question: Where is there a Wine support channel?
[08:18] <kahrytan> How do you show images in Evolution?
[08:19] <keito> PriceChild: yeah I found it had selected files from packages I still use
[08:19] <[ifr0g] > pls, use my nick to alert me.
[08:19] <rmullins> Ryo: OK, just a sec bro.  I made a bonehead, gimme one second.
[08:19] <tofaffy_> wha tdo you mean Jack_Sparrow
[08:19] <PriceChild> seawolf, I think there is a small decrease... but nothing to worry about afaik
[08:19] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: Just to test, make a change like wallpaper.... then restore your tar backup....  and restart x.. change will go away..
[08:19] <finalbeta> what command stops the ssh server on ubuntu? can't find it in inid.d
[08:19] <PriceChild> thomas_, #winehq

[08:19] <thomas_> Merci!
[08:19] <tofaffy_> kk, thats cool...I will later
[08:19] <seawolf> ok, PriceChild, thanks
[08:19] <keito> PriceChild: problem is some of the libs I have no idea whether to remove or not ( how can I check dependencies?)
[08:19] <Jack_Sparrow> tofaffy_: Resizing a partition will not be a problem for you..
[08:20] <tofaffy_> kk
[08:20] <rmullins> Ryo: Ok, im updateing.  Now I'm cooking with gas,
[08:20] <Ryo> ok
[08:20] <finalbeta> PriceChild: I think I did, this PC is a couple years running on ubuntu :P
[08:20] <[ifr0g] > Help ! /bin/sh: scripts/mod/modpost: not found ...
[08:20] <PriceChild> keito, if when removing the lib, it removes something you want.. then don't :)
[08:20] <_Andrew> julesa: apt-get update | tee -a /tmp/updates.txt
[08:20] <keito> PriceChild: lol no way to check what package uses it?
[08:20] <[phear] cripp|_er> Can anyone help me set up a network file transfer between my friends windows xp machine and my ubuntu machince?
[08:20] <finalbeta> PriceChild: I'm coding this app, testing it with the ssh server I have running on ubuntu, need to test what it does when the server fails in the middle of the connection.
[08:20] <rmullins> Ryo: Ok, I got the updates.
[08:20] <r0b-> hey if i download the Ubuntu Alternate CD can it fix my missing /bin
[08:21] <PriceChild> finalbeta, will install it and figure it out, one minute
[08:21] <Ryo> allrighty, now reassmble xorg.conf with the command mentioned earlier.
[08:21] <rmullins> the dpkg one?
[08:21] <Ryo> which was
[08:21] <Ryo> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg\
[08:21] <Trae> odd my sound just stopped working
[08:21] <Ryo> without the \
[08:21] <Trae> i tried fuser -k /dev/dsp
[08:21] <Trae> that didn't seem to work
[08:21] <PriceChild> finalbeta, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[08:22] <rmullins> Ryo: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg   ?
[08:22] <Ryo> yup
[08:22] <Ryo> that one.
[08:22] <rmullins> oh, sorry,

[08:22] <rmullins> trying to keep up, I promise.
[08:22] <finalbeta> PriceChild: how strange, I stopped the server in the middle of a connection, but it didn't kill my client, stays running.
[08:23] <finalbeta> I can't make new connections though
[08:23] <rmullins> Ryo: I have  a bunch of choices.
[08:23] <PriceChild> finalbeta, probably takes a while to time out
[08:23] <Ryo> Is intel available?
[08:23] <PriceChild> !offtopic > ThylekShran
[08:23] <ultrazauberer> hi
[08:23] <finalbeta> PriceChild: I'm changing dirs on it.
[08:23] <_Andrew> ultrazauberer: Hello
[08:23] <PriceChild> finalbeta, so its still working?
[08:23] <rmullins> Ryo: i128, i740, i810
[08:23] <rmullins> are those intel?
[08:23] <DarthVad0r> Ok
[08:24] <finalbeta> PriceChild: it doesn't kill sessions, it doesn't except new ones though.
[08:24] <scottDkoDer> MuNzE: crdlb: Go here and search for 'wallpaper'  http://shame.tuxfamily.org/repo/  It just doesn't work and "Compiz Fusion is capable of setting different wallpapers for each viewport without the need for additional plugins."  Mine just goes white on some sides after or durring effects. This is a bug.  Let me know if any one else has this problem.
[08:24] <DarthVad0r> the problem was a Joomlacomponent which had a bug
[08:24] <PriceChild> finalbeta, how wierd
[08:24] <finalbeta> Seems like it stays working until everyone left
[08:24] <Ryo> I don't think that would do the trick :/  just do vesa.  It's supposed to be the "work with anything" driver.

[08:29] <dougsko> [phear] cripp|_er: you have to set it up, if you dont have it installed already
[08:29] <_Andrew> ultrazauberer: There are a few media players out there but I think there are other people in the room that could answer your question better.
[08:29] <[phear] cripp|_er> dougsko, apt-get ???
[08:29] <robinson> i'll give it a go and try not to be too disappointed.  It's a completely new installation so maybe I'll get lucky!
[08:29] <dougsko> [phear] cripp|_er: openssh-server
[08:30] <ultrazauberer> thx _Andrew
[08:30] <_Andrew> robinson: You shouldn't have a problem its upgrades that have the bug

[08:31] <|MrLinux|> i canot install it or remove it
[08:31] <[phear] cripp|_er> dougsko, Would this be alot easier with NetCat?
[08:31] <|MrLinux|> Starting Cluster LVM Daemon clvmd could not connect to cluster manager
[08:31] <|MrLinux|> invoke-rc.d: initscript clvm, action "start" failed
[08:31] <dougsko> [phear] cripp|_er: if your friend has the windows version of netcat, yeah you can just use that

[08:32] <Meta4ical> I installed Ubuntu 7.04 for the first time yesterday and have been unsuccessful getting the fglrx drivers working with my x1550
[08:32] <orbisvicis> !dmix
[08:32] <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
[08:32] <Meta4ical> Could anyone tell me how successful ENVY has been?
[08:32] <dougsko> [phear] cripp|_er: well, netcat it up then
[08:32] <pegger> |MrLinux|: what kind of cluster are you running
[08:32] <|MrLinux|> pff

[08:33] <|MrLinux|> 2.02.06-2ubuntu9
[08:33] <dougsko> [phear] cripp|_er: just so you know, you can search the repos with 'apt-cache search <whatever>'. try searching for netcat
[08:34] <imbecile> im trying to make it so my keyring app doesnt ask me for pw for my wireless when i log on.. how would i do this?
[08:34] <[phear] cripp|_er> dougsko, thanks

[08:39] <[phear] cripp|_er> hehe got it thanks guys

[08:39] <_Andrew> |MrLinux|: http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/faq.html#clvmd Heres the FAQ I am looking at
[08:39] <ShackJac1> Wow - channel quiet today ;)
[08:39] <Meta4ical> ShackJack is that you ;o
[08:40] <|MrLinux|> _Andrew:  not working whit apt-get install clvm cman
[08:40] <parawizard> I was wondering about kernels and SMP. I have a ubuntu fiesty and a ubuntu studio installation on two different PCs here. The fiesty sees all 4 cores of my Q6600 CPU but the ubuntustudio does not, on either generic or low latency.
[08:40] <ShackJac1> Meta4ical: Yeah GAIM borked my NickServer login so just call me ShackJac1 ;)
[08:40] <|MrLinux|> _Andrew:  say its already to the new version
[08:40] <Catsceo> mrlinux: did you remember to sudo?
[08:40] <Catsceo> err, nm
[08:40] <_Andrew> |MrLinux|: You have cman installed too?
[08:41] <malocite> hey folks, I have a machine that is booting, then hanging when it gets to the desktop with the rectangle on the screen
[08:41] <m_> do anyone know what program i can use to create bootable CD in ubuntu?
[08:41] <|MrLinux|> Catsceo: i'm root
[08:41] <parawizard> malocite, Intel chipset or toshiba A100 laptop?
[08:41] <malocite> intel chipset
[08:41] <|MrLinux|> Catsceo: and i dont need to user sudo
[08:41] <ShackJac1> !iso | m_
[08:41] <ubotu> m_: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[08:41] <|MrLinux|> Catsceo: use*
[08:41] <malocite> parawizard: Intel chip set, it wasn't doing this earlier today
[08:41] <[ifr0g] > which package contain kernel modules ?
[08:42] <biberao> hi
[08:42] <File13> Intiutive, im back
[08:42] <|MrLinux|> _Andrew:  i have cman too
[08:42] <parawizard> malocite I had the same problem on fresh install of 7.04 on a A100 laptop with intel chipset I could not solve it
[08:42] <malocite> parawizard: And I can login to other ttys and I can run some programs in x but the ubuntu rectangle just stays tere
[08:42] <[ifr0g] > i mistakenly deleted a module and  i want to reisntall that package ..
[08:42] <malocite> its come from out of no where, it wasn't here before
[08:42] <parawizard> weird
[08:43] <parawizard> Would it be usual for a UbuntuStudio installation to not install for SMP?
[08:43] <Meta4ical> Anyone here have a x1550 working with the fglrx drivers?
[08:43] <orbisvicis> if i reinstall alsa, will it correctly set up mixing for my new sound card ?
[08:43] <malocite> what do you call that rectangle... is it a splash screen?  or what is it, I'm trying to google it
[08:43] <reverseblade> parawizard, SMP is default enabled in recent kernels
[08:43] <ShackJac1> malocite: When in double I boot into command line and sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude -f install  to make sure no busted packages causing it ;)
[08:43] <biberao> any of you got a 82845G graphic card
[08:43] <biberao> ?
[08:43] <ShackJac1> malocite: *doubt
[08:43] <malocite> shackjacl: Good idea, I'll try that
[08:43] <ShackJac1> orbisvicis: Doubtful ;)
[08:43] <mwe> !reinstall | [ifr0g]

[08:43] <parawizard> reverseblade: fiesty installed with smp support on my quad core but in ubuntu studio Its only using 1 core
[08:44] <reverseblade> parawizard, check boot options for nosmp. other than that, it is strange
[08:44] <malocite> shackjacl: thats sudo apt-get update right?
[08:45] <kalusn> have anyone tried intels powerTOP in gutsy? can you tell how its working?
[08:45] <ShackJac1> malocite: aptitude is fine... and if aptitude install -f checks out, also do sudo aptitude -f upgrade ;)
[08:45] <_imran_> can anyone help me, i have azureus, but it won't download anything
[08:45] <_imran_> it cant connect to any peers or seeds
[08:45] <kalusn> get deluge
[08:46] <ShackJac1> kalusn: heehee I was just gonna say that ;)
[08:46] <malocite> shackjacl: hmm, didn't seem to do anything, I'll reboot and see what happens
[08:46] <_imran_> kalusn, were you talkin to me?
[08:46] <La_PaRCa> Hello. Is there a way I can tell if the php package in ubuntu was built with the --enable-sockets parameter?
[08:46] <[ifr0g] > mwe, thanks, doing that..
[08:47] <malocite> shackjacl: I did just remove elisa and freevo in favour of mythtv
[08:47] <ShackJac1> malocite: You mean you did have any broken packages - i.e. 0 packages upgraded, etc...
[08:47] <malocite> shackjac: Yeha
[08:47] <malocite> shackjac: none
[08:47] <kalusn> _imran_: hmm.. yeah, but I wouldn't listen to my advice, since it's pretty ignorant
[08:47] <parawizard> reverseblade: boot options in menu.lst? If so I dont see any sign of a no smp boot option
[08:47] <ShackJac1> malocite: O.K. well, it's just one thing I check if any lockups ;)  Can you Alt+f7 into GNOME in command line mode?
[08:48] <_imran_> kalusn, ok...do you have any other suggestions?
[08:48] <malocite> when i do a ctrl alt f1, the last thing it says there is running local boot scripts /etc/rc.local OK
[08:48] <malocite> should it say anything else?
[08:48] <_imran_> kalusn, ok, it connected to 1 seed
[08:48] <randoman> gmorning everyone
[08:48] <randoman> does anyone know whats causing this
[08:48] <ShackJac1> malocite: Right, but when booting in recovery mode can you start gdm?  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:49] <kalusn> _imran_: does torrent sharing work well with other bittorrent programs on your computer?
[08:49] <randoman> httpd: bad user name www-data, when doing chroot /chrootdir /httpd/bin/httpd?
[08:49] <reverseblade> parawizard, as told it is default enabled with recent kernels
[08:49] <randoman> i have all the files needed to run in the chroot folder
[08:49] <malocite> shackjacl: Problem seems to be solved
[08:49] <randoman> it works when i just run /httpd/bin/httpd
[08:49] <malocite> shackjacl: I did that aptitude thing, rebooted, now all is normal
[08:49] <randoman> with no porblems
[08:49] <_imran_> kalusn, well, it works well on windows
[08:49] <ShackJac1> malocite: Sweet ;)
[08:49] <_imran_> kalusn, now 1 seed, 3 peers
[08:49] <malocite> shackjacl: why dO i get the feeling I didn't do anything :)
[08:49] <reverseblade> !enter | randoman
[08:49] <ubotu> randoman: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:50] <parawizard> reverseblade could it be that it isnt included in the Ubuntustudio text based installer dvd? should I just reinstall the generic kernel package using synaptic?
[08:50] <randoman> sorry
[08:50] <kalusn> _imran_: I think azureus is working just fine then... just a wee bit slow
[08:50] <randoman> any ideas though from anyone?
[08:50] <ShackJac1> malocite: I dunno what you're prompts said when updating/upgrading... though you could open terminal and try them again or go to synaptic to fix broken packages if any,,
[08:50] <malocite> shackjacl: Oh... one real quick one, where do I place a startup script?  I want my computer to automatically mount a remote drive on boot up
[08:50] <_imran_> kalusn, do you know how to set a file so that it doesnt seed when it is done downloading?
[08:50] <reverseblade> parawizard, may be they explicitly set off smp for ubuntustudio, you can always install you kernel anyway
[08:51] <kalusn> _imran_: not in azureus, since im using deluge
[08:51] <_imran_> kalus
[08:51] <ShackJac1> malocite: Don't matter.. I usually place in /usr/local/bin --- don't forget to make executable... then add script to Prefs->Sessions -> Startup programs...
[08:51] <_imran_> kalusn, ok
[08:51] <malocite> perfect
[08:52] <amartolos> hello, i'm having a start up pause when my machine tries to load 'system log daemon'
[08:52] <orbisvicis> im not getting any hardware mixing on my new sound card ... how do i fix that ?
[08:52] <parawizard> reverseblade if I choose to reinstall the generic packages for both it should work itself out?
[08:53] <aslam> help: i downloaded the gspcav1 driver... and i ran the script gspca_build yet my webcam doesn't work
[08:53] <malocite> now back to learning how to make my remote work in mplayer :)
[08:53] <reverseblade> parawizard, don'T think so. But trying is better than asking me :)
[08:53] <kalusn> _imran_: In deluge though, you can set it too stop seeding when you reach a certain share ratio... I really recommend that you try and use deluge. It's very well integrated into gnome
[08:53] <kalusn> and a good torrent manager
[08:53] <aslam> help: i downloaded the gspcav1 driver... and i ran the script gspca_build yet my webcam doesn't work
[08:53] <amartolos> anyone with experience on 'starting system log daemon' problems?
[08:53] <_imran_> does anyone know how to set a .torrent file not to seed when it is done downloading in azureus
[08:53] <ShackJack> Ahhh.. that's better...
[08:53] <knix_> Does anyone know how-to get a delorme lt-20 working in feisty?

Her Windows laptop connects with the same cable without a problem.
[09:00] <r0b-> from ShipIt
[09:00] <ShackJack> r0b-: I don't beleive so - they only hnd out Live CD - you'd have to D/L it...

[09:05] <ogami1972> :)
[09:05] <reverseblade> parawizard, it is impossible not being able to install a new kernel. IT's just your old system may not boot :)
[09:05] <aguitel> what is synaptic?
[09:05] <ShackJack> choongii: Easiest way to do - if installing for Firefox is go to the Adobe Flash detector page and it will instlal as plugin ;)
[09:05] <parawizard> reverseblade: I upgraded to newer kernels but is still no smp (through synamptic)
[09:05] <Raineer> aguitel: synaptic is just a front-end to many repositories, and you can add others if you wish to

[09:05] <choongii> ShackJack: hmm thanks, but it'd really prefer using the package manager if at all possible
[09:05] <orbisvicis> !dmix
[09:05] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[09:05] <gimpii> what is an excellent archiver program to use in feisty?
[09:05] <ShackJack> choongii: If you change you're mind - it's just a plugin ;)  http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_15507
[09:05] <parawizard> reverseblade: k hehe the new kernel killed my xgl/ati or something
[09:06] <aguitel> there is another packege manager?
[09:06] <Jordan_U> aguitel, A repository is a server from which applications like apt-get / synaptic download their packages
[09:06] <keram`> how can i make sure my audio isnt muted?
[09:06] <choongii> thanks ShackJack, I'll bookmark that in case all else fails :>
[09:06] <reverseblade> parawizard, no just reinstall your binary video drivers
[09:06] <Raineer> gimpii: I am pleased with the built-in Archive Manager, are there other features you need?
[09:06] <ubuntuEdgy> what is the correct syntax to use ...........~$ nrg2iso /media/disk/Documents\ and\ Settings/user/My\ Documents/Imagedvd.nrg image.iso
[09:06] <reverseblade> gimpii, tar ?
[09:06] <tarzeau> keram`: you can set it to some specific volume using aumix?
[09:06] <bulmer> gimpii: jar (java based) and tar
[09:06] <Jordan_U> keram`, run "alsamixer" make sure no tracks have "MM" at the bottom
[09:06] <gimpii> rar, zip, tar, all of them
[09:07] <keram`> ok thanks
[09:07] <reverseblade> tar is okay for me
[09:07] <Raineer> gimpii: What I've done is get the 'rar' package via apt-get and then archive manager handles everything for me
[09:07] <choongii> the archive manager is like a wrapper for the commandline tools
[09:08] <choongii> eg if you wanna do rars, you gotta install unrar. etc.

[09:08] <Raiden329> [14:06]  <tarzeau> keram`: you can set it to some specific volume using aumix?
[09:09] <ShackJack> Oh - damn it's that robot again...
[09:09] <choongii> anyone else had trouble installing flashplugin-nonfree ? md5sum check fails here
[09:09] <gnomefreak> ty nixternal i was too slow
[09:09] <gimpii> I need rar capabilities mostly
[09:09] <compengi> thank you nixternal
[09:09] <keram`> tarzeau, actually i get an error when i try to set it with aumix
[09:09] <nixternal> no problem..thanks for the heads up!
[09:09] <tarzeau> keram`: which error?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> choongii, Known problem, don't know if there is a fix ( there probably is )
[09:09] <Raineer> gimpii: sudo apt-get install rar unrar     will cover what you need then
[09:09] <choongii> Jordan_U: ok thanks, good enough. I'll just wait it out then
[09:09] <keram`> tarzeau, aumix -v100 outputs aumix: SOUND_MIXER_READ_DEVMASK
[09:09] <File13> IntuitiveNipple
[09:09] <gnomefreak> choongii: in feisty add feisty-proposed repos or wait a few days
[09:09] <gimpii> Yup. I just got it :)
[09:10] <Raineer> and then the built-in manager will use them, it's just a front-end
[09:10] <IntuitiveNipple> File13: Sleep well?
[09:10] <gimpii> thanks Raineer
[09:10] <gnomefreak> choongii: the fix was pushed to feisty-updates repo as of late lastnight
[09:10] <choongii> gnomefreak: ok, thanks
[09:10] <keram`> tarzeau, and when i do alsamixer it looks like they are 100% and not muted, but there are only 2 options
[09:10] <tarzeau> keram`: never seen that msg
[09:10] <compengi> hi gnomefreak
[09:10] <choongii> gnomefreak: great
[09:10] <gnomefreak> compengi: hi
[09:10] <tarzeau> keram`: tried with 99 ?
[09:10] <keram`> tarzeau, yeah
[09:10] <aguitel> anyone here have lexmark x1185 ?
[09:10] <compengi> gnomefreak, how are you? hope great?
[09:10] <tcstech> Cool, just build two identical micro form factor computers based on ICOP's eBox III (great 'lil boxes BTW).  The unit has two ethernet ports, one on the mainboard and one on an expantion card...
[09:10] <Zambezi> What is the folder lost+found for?
[09:10] <ubuntuEdgy> Raiden329: hi
[09:10] <gnomefreak> compengi: tired and busy ;) how bout yourseld
[09:10] <gnomefreak> youself
[09:11] <tarzeau> keram`: dunno sorry
[09:11] <lillo> hi
[09:11] <tarzeau> Zambezi: for files that get lost, then found
[09:11] <tcstech> .. the issue is on one of them eth0 was assined to the on-board nic and eth1 to the expantion card.
[09:11] <tarzeau> Zambezi: or parts of files. fsck uses that place
[09:11] <tcstech> The other box is backwards.
[09:11] <lillo> I've a problem with my ubuntu web-databese server
[09:11] <Zambezi> tarzeau, So erasing it is not a good idea?
[09:11] <compengi> gnomefreak, i'm doing fine.. little busy too, but we should move and never give up :)
[09:11] <tarzeau> Zambezi: no
[09:12] <WhoNeedszzz> Hey guys, Is it possible to give space from my ubuntu partition to my windows partition?
[09:12] <choongii> hmm, I just try to make sure I'm never busy :p
[09:12] <Raineer> Who: You can use the GParted Live CD to boot and resize your partitions
[09:12] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, sure, use gparted and resize your partitions
[09:12] <tcstech> How do I rename or assign eth0 to the correct nic?
[09:12] <WhoNeedszzz> i tried that
[09:12] <WhoNeedszzz> i am in live cd now
[09:12] <lillo> I try to install php5-interbase to access firebird database but it don't work
[09:13] <Zambezi> tarzeau, I just solved it by running the command with sudo. That will do.
[09:13] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, so what's the problem then?
[09:13] <WhoNeedszzz> i took 10 GB from xubuntu and the ntfs won't use it
[09:13] <Zambezi> tarzeau, sudo ls -R > list.txt :-)
[09:13] <WhoNeedszzz> or i don't know how to make it use it
[09:13] <tarzeau> Zambezi: aha
[09:13] <aslam> is this because of xchat or nobody who knows about webcam is here
[09:13] <m_> do anyone know what to do to make a bootable CD? i'm a newbie so please take it slow
[09:13] <Pici> tcstech: Take a look at /etc/iftab.  Switch the entries for the box that is giving you trouble.
[09:14] <Raineer> m_: What do you wish to do with the bootable CD?
[09:14] <Zambezi> tarzeau, Thanks for your help.
[09:14] <aslam> c'mon can someone help me with my webcam issue
[09:14] <m_> Raineer: boot it from my computer
[09:14] <Raineer> m_: If you just want to boot into Linux, you can use the ubuntu Live CD and it will boot
[09:14] <nixternal> aslam: which webcam and what ist he problem?
[09:14] <mdolan> anyone here have a webcam recommendation for ubuntu?
[09:14] <nixternal> I just setup a webcam here
[09:14] <mdolan> speaking of
[09:15] <mdolan> nixternal, what webcam did you setup?
[09:15] <aslam> logitech quickcam for notebook...
[09:15] <nixternal> I bought the Logitech QuickCam Deluxe for Notebooks
[09:15] <aslam> i installed the gspca driver but still doesnt work
[09:15] <nixternal> luvcview and ekiga work with right out of the box
[09:15] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, you need to resize/move some space from the partition then add them to another one
[09:15] <DeaD_RaVeN> hi all
[09:15] <mdolan> nixternal, I have that specific one - how did you get it to work?
[09:15] <mikebot> Anyone here use LaTeX?
[09:15] <nixternal> it uses the v4l2 setup
[09:15] <m_> Raineeri want to CREATE a bootable CD from an iso file i have on my computer
[09:15] <WhoNeedszzz> i am trying that
[09:15] <nixternal> mdolan: I didn't do anything..it worked out of the box for me
[09:15] <lillo> I use it: Latex
[09:15] <WhoNeedszzz> btw does the new nvidia driver work in ubuntu?
[09:15] <mdolan> nixternal, Feisty or Gutsy?
[09:15] <mikebot> lillo: How do you compile things?
[09:16] <nixternal> mdolan: Gutsy
[09:16] <WhoNeedszzz> i know the one before was giving trouble
[09:16] <nixternal> !info luvcview > mdolan
[09:16] <mdolan> nixternal, ahhhh.... that must be it then..
[09:16] <Raineer> m_: Ok, if the .ISO is a bootable image then all you will need to do is burn that image to a CD. You can use Gnomebaker or k3b, among others
[09:16] <nixternal> sorry mdolan, I didn't mean for that to message you
[09:16] <lillo> with the command-line latex
[09:16] <aslam> nixternal: i dont have the deluxe but just the normal one so which driver should i use
[09:16] <stuart-> hm.. if i wanna change to AMD i've gotta re-install ubuntu, right?
[09:16] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, nvidia drivers always work on ubuntu
[09:16] <Raineer> m_: If the .ISO file is *not* a bootable image, then you will not be able to boot it
[09:16] <WhoNeedszzz> not true
[09:16] <nixternal> aslam: install luvcview and see if you can view your camera with that
[09:16] <lillo> example: latex document_name.tex
[09:16] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, and in feisty it's more easier to install
[09:16] <Pici> stuart-: from intel32 to amd32?
[09:16] <aslam> thanks let my try
[09:16] <WhoNeedszzz> there was a problem in the packaging on ubuntu's part
[09:17] <stuart-> Pici, yup
[09:17] <lillo> the output file is a .dvi format
[09:17] <nixternal> if you can, it uses the uvc drivers and v4l2, so the only 2 apps that currently support it are luvcview and ekiga for chatting
[09:17] <WhoNeedszzz> i have feisty
[09:17] <Pici> stuart-: I think you should be okay. I'd backup just in case though.
[09:17] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, i'm running nvidia gforce fx 5500 256MB and installed the driver through restricted drivers manager and had no problem at all
[09:18] <stuart-> Pici, one more thing. do new motherboards support old SDRAMS? i'm only going for a motherboard/processor upgrade
[09:18] <WhoNeedszzz> right, there is a problem with the 8 series packaging
[09:18] <WhoNeedszzz> which is what i have
[09:18] <tcstech> Pici: Thanks that was exactly what I was looking for.
[09:18] <Anlar> stuart-: new motherboards like ddr-2 which is entirely different
[09:18] <Raineer> I didn't think Nvidia had different drivers for the different series of cards (for linux)
[09:19] <Raineer> Just like... 3D and non, legacy
[09:19] <dxdt> they dont.  Well, the really old cards use legacy
[09:19] <stuart-> Anlar, meaning if i were to go for a decent AMD now, DDR's are compulsory?
[09:19] <dxdt>  yeah and the 2d nv driver
[09:19] <lillo> anyone use php5-interbase module for apache2.0?
[09:19] <WhoNeedszzz> i don't think they do, it's just the application of the driver for the 8 series
[09:20] <Anlar> stuart-: sure, and it'd be better to skip ddr-1 to ddr-2 while at it
[09:20] <parawizard> I have followed the steps here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile but when i get to modifying the source config I cannot find anything for config in the debian folder?
[09:20] <WhoNeedszzz> but regardless does anyone know how to give space from ubuntu to windows?
[09:20] <contradiction-p2> Hi. I'm running kubuntu 7.04, and i have a problem. i want to copy some files from my friend's vista business pc to mine, and have spent about 4 hours, but to no avail. so, i'm going to try it from kubuntu, and was hoping that somebody could tell me where to start. i'm connected directly through an ethernet cable, and he's configure his for open file sharing. thanks in advance
[09:20] <stuart-> gah, expensive
[09:20] <contradiction-p2> 4 hours trying to do it on windows xp, that is
[09:20] <WhoNeedszzz> contradiction-p2: use samba
[09:20] <m_> Raineer: didn't work! an error message occupeared: No bootable devices, press F1 to retry
[09:21] <ShackJack> WhoNeedszzz: I think that question was addressed -- Gparted ed --- bott from LIVE cd ?
[09:21] <parawizard> contradiction can you ping his computer?
[09:21] <dxdt> contradiction-p2: if you are going straight cat5 to cat5 port on the two machines, it won't work because most cat5 cable's aren't "crossover" cables.  Are you using a hub or router in between??
[09:21] <aslam> nixternal: are u sure its luvcview
[09:21] <Raineer> m_:  2 things could be happening, the .ISO image could be defective (or not bootable), or possibly BIOS is not setup to boot from a CD drive before the Hard Disk
[09:21] <WhoNeedszzz> ShackJack: i am in live cd and using gparted it isn't working
[09:21] <contradiction-p2> parawizard: no, not from xp. dxdt: my friend was able to transfer vista-to-vista directly through a cat 5, so i thought it would be possible as is
[09:22] <gimpii> gg windows
[09:22] <aslam> nixternal: u there?
[09:22] <stuart-> Anlar, how much DDR RAM does a 'normal' pc have nowadays?
[09:22] <ShackJack> WhoNeedszzz: You have to unmount the partitions first.... but that how you'd do it anyway... If gparted can't do it, nothing can ;)
[09:22] <stuart-> i'm so outdated
[09:22] <parawizard> if your NIC card has built in switchs to detect crossover cables maybe
[09:22] <WhoNeedszzz> contradiction-p2: use a router and samba
[09:22] <Willem_Basson> Greetings everyone.
[09:22] <WhoNeedszzz> ShackJack: i did unmount
[09:22] <Raineer> Yes, stick with GParted, it *really* is the best tool to use for resizing the partitions
[09:22] <TheCreationist> My friend just switched from using a wireless router to a direct ethernet connection between her Ubuntu Feisty box and her cable modem.  The problem is, although lspci recognizes her ethernet adapter, she has no connection.  I've tried to do a manual configuration of the device with DHCP, but no luck.  Could anyone help here?  Her Windows laptop connects with the same cable without a problem.
[09:22] <m_> Raineer: i'm totaly sure that i'm booting from my CD, and i downloaded a file wich was bootable... do u know any other program i could use?
[09:22] <DeaD_RaVeN> what is freenode?
[09:22] <Willem_Basson> I'm about to pull my hair out here.
[09:23] <alzamon> hei, i just installed xubuntu and i need to run certain commands to make my (OLD) ISA network card work.. where should I put these commands so that they run every time i start my computer*
[09:23] <MattJ> stuart-, that varies a lot, but most places don't stock below 512MB
[09:23] <Anlar> stuart-: 1G for low-end, and 2G for power users
[09:23] <ShackJack> WhoNeedszzz: Then you might need to be more specific on errors, issues, etc.. you are running in to... (though I have not seen the whole of your message thread)
[09:23] <Willem_Basson> does anyone have experience with a surecom usb wifi USB dongle?
[09:23] <WhoNeedszzz> i resized my ubuntu partition and the free space only has the option of making a new partition, not moving
[09:23] <MattJ> DeaD_RaVeN, Freenode is an IRC network of servers, which host chat rooms like this one
[09:23] <stuart-> thanks. that's around USD 200 for the whole upgrade. expensive after you convert it to RM
[09:23] <alesan> chat rooms are called channels on IRC
[09:24] <Raineer> m_: Well there are many but burning an ISO is really simple so that's why I question it.  If you have Nautilus open (the default Gnome file manager) you can just right-click the ISO file and click "Write to Disk"
[09:24] <tcstech> Pici you just saved my hide... these things have to go out in a day.  I will have to join this ch often and offer my help as well.  Thanks again.
[09:24] <cozwellintoronto> hello all
[09:24] <compengi> stuart-, there is no such thing in world of pc a word "normal", because normal is something that have minimum and max, but in pc's nothing is max you can upgrade as much as your pocket fits
[09:24] <mon^rch> anyone familiar with igal?
[09:24] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::MattJ::] => this server is American?
[09:25] <stuart-> so what high-end stuff could i do on linux btw. i have no other motivation of upgrading other than beryl. lol
[09:25] <MattJ> DeaD_RaVeN, Freenode is a network of servers...
[09:25] <MattJ> DeaD_RaVeN, from all different countries
[09:25] <Willem_Basson> SureCom EP-9001-G 2A
[09:25] <ShackJack> stuart-: "high-end stuff"?
[09:26] <Raineer> Stuart: sounds about right... But you can do just about anything your little heart desires and whatever you can dream up
[09:26] <Willem_Basson> cannot get it to work natively, nor with ndiswrapper
[09:26] <imbecile> how do i restart x?
[09:26] <gnomefreak> !x
[09:26] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:26] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::MattJ::] => good! where do you live?
[09:26] <ShackJack> imbecile: CTRL-ALT-BACKLSPACE
[09:26] <Raineer> imb: ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:26] <Willem_Basson> ctrl-alt-backspace should restart x for you
[09:26] <gimpii> ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:26] <Willem_Basson> or /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:26] <qking> How can i change my command line  keyboard layout ?
[09:26] <gimpii> lol, I was beat
[09:26] <MattJ> Love the simple questions ^^
[09:26] <stuart-> ShackJack, i used to save for upgrades when i was using windows primarily for games. now i don't play games anymore, i'll have no idea what to do with the extra performance. right now linux runs fine on my old junk pc
[09:26] <Willem_Basson> keybord change:
[09:26] <Willem_Basson> check /etc/locale, I think?
[09:27] <Willem_Basson> nope, that was in debian
[09:27] <qking> ok
[09:27] <MattJ> DeaD_RaVeN, that is irrelevant... join #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to chat :)
[09:27] <Raineer> Stuart: yes, I agree what do you do with all that extra money now that you run Linux :)
[09:27] <WhoNeedszzz> has anyone successfully transfered space from linux to windows?
[09:27] <ShackJack> stuart-: Hmmm. depends on your interests really... that's such an open question... but compiz fusion is a nice start... And I still like to play the old arcade games with mame.. There's Blender for editing 3d models..
[09:27] <jimcooncat_> want to install a server to test kvm and ltsp; have amd 4600+ dual core; should I get Ubuntu server Edition 7.04? 32 bit or 64 bit?
[09:27] <tcstech> I've run ?ubuntu on as little as a 800MHz 256mb
[09:28] <Raineer> WhoNeedszzz: Yes, I have.  But I already answered you hehe
[09:28] <WhoNeedszzz> Raineer: than why isn't it working for me?
[09:28] <izzyb> is there a known issue and fix for a problem with double letters being detected when the key was pressed only once?
[09:28] <WhoNeedszzz> what were your exact steps?
[09:28] <DeaD_RaVeN> =[::MattJ::] => thanks =)
[09:29] <stuart-> Raineer, no jokes. i've no idea what else to do with my pc now that everything runs fine. which is weird.
[09:29] <piedoggie> has anyone here had any success with VM Ware server?  On feisty
[09:29] <stuart-> ShackJack, okay. will try to think of something, lol
[09:29] <Raineer> Who: I used GParted to shrink the linux partition, then the second step is to expand the NTFS partition.  After this is done, windows SHOULD pickup the changes after you boot into it
[09:29] <compengi> jimcooncat_, check if your cpu supports 64bit if it does then sure install ubuntu server 64bit if not then 32 :)
[09:30] <ShackJack> stuart-: I just like linux for the stability, security, autoupgrades, free proggies, and the opportunity to tinker if I want...
[09:30] <WhoNeedszzz> when i try to expand the windows partition it won't go any bigger
[09:30] <MattJ> izzyb, go to System->Preferences->Keyboard, and increase the Delay silder (towards Long)
[09:30] <MattJ> *slider
[09:30] <Raineer> Who: ahh, you mean the slider in the GParted menu won't go any bigger?
[09:30] <aryr100> noob to linux ? why do most windows apps work with OS X but not linux ? when both are unix based ?
[09:30] <izzyb> MattJ: I'm not sure that's the problem
[09:30] <ikonia> WhoNeedszzz: how is your free space laid out
[09:30] <WhoNeedszzz> Raineer: yes
[09:30] <stuart-> ShackJack, free pretty much gg'ed it for me.
[09:30] <ikonia> aryr100: most windows applications don't work with linux
[09:30] <izzyb> it isn't like I had the key down for too long
[09:30] <jimcooncat_> compengi: I had seen so many horror stories about running 64 bit on the desktop .. I didn't know if it affected server apps
[09:31] <WhoNeedszzz> it just says unallocated at the bottom
[09:31] <ikonia> aryr100: or os X
[09:31] <izzyb> seems more like the system got busy and miss detected the key twice
[09:31] <ikonia> WhoNeedszzz: is it on an extended partition at all ?
[09:31] <WhoNeedszzz> no only swap is
[09:31] <ShackJack> Raineer: Just a tip, but you should use full name so ppl are alerted of your response (use tab-autocomplete for IM names) ;)
[09:31] <compengi> WhoNeedszzz, i think that you are trying to resize from logical partition to extended one or vice verse
[09:31] <Raineer> Who: Ok, now I understand.  As ikonia just mentioned it has to do with how your free space is laid out.  If you are using the actual GParted Live CD it will have a graphical representation of your drives at the top. You can use this to drag your partitions around
[09:31] <aryr100> my family tree maker work both win & OS X but not linux
[09:31] <parawizard> Is there anyway more basic to get ubuntu to use a smp kernel instead of a no smp one?
[09:32] <Willem_Basson> can someone please assist me with setting up my wireless on feisty?
[09:32] <parawizard> Then to install a custom kernel?
[09:32] <ikonia> aryr100: thats unfortuanate
[09:32] <compengi> !wifi | Willem_Basson
[09:32] <ubotu> Willem_Basson: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:32] <ikonia> parawizard: the kernels are all smp
[09:32] <reverseblade> parawizard, ubuntu uses smp already
[09:32] <ShackJack> aryr100: Most apps that work with Windows do not work with OSX... though you can run many Windows apps under wine in Linux...
[09:32] <Raineer> For example, if your Linux partition was *after* your windows partition, you would have just shrunk the end of it. You may need to "scoot linux over" so the windows partition can expand
[09:32] <Willem_Basson> I'll have a quick look, but I'm sure i've been through that.
[09:33] <lethal2> hi
[09:33] <Raineer> That will make sense if you're using the CD which has the graphical 'drag-n-drop' partition sizer
[09:33] <gimpii`food> go dell -- http://www.crn.com.au/story.aspx?CIID=87745
[09:33] <parawizard> ikonia, reverseblade: I dont get it then? haha its defiently not a smp kernel
[09:33] <ikonia> parawizard: yes, is your cpu smp ?
[09:33] <ikonia> gimpii`food: this is a support channel
[09:33] <parawizard> ikonia, Q6600 quad core
[09:33] <gimpii`food> lol, its about linux support
[09:33] <ikonia> gimpii`food: this is ubuntu support channel only
[09:34] <dead1ock> sup
[09:34] <WhoNeedszzz> i'm using the xubuntu live cd, is that not what i am supposed to use?
[09:34] <ikonia> parawizard: can you show me the output of uname -a please
[09:34] <compengi> jimcooncat_, i don't have 64bit support, but what i know is that cpus that support 64bit such as amd does and now intel run much faster and have better performance than 32bit cpus do, but regarding the applications i have no idea. trying it out won't hurt :)
[09:34] <Raineer> Who: It can probably work but might be a bit more frustrating, let me find you a URL, one sec
[09:34] <dead1ock> interest
[09:34] <ikonia> compengi: 64bit isn't always faster
[09:35] <gimpii> *hit head on keyboard* if you read it you would see its about ubuntu, but I'll keep it strictly to ubuntu support in the "now" just for sake of the arguement
[09:35] <jimcooncat_> thanks folks, so 32bit vs 64bit, what are the issues?
[09:35] <ikonia> gimpii: good man, thanks, this isn't a support discussion - its supporting people

[09:35] <Ryo> HI, problem, nothing that uses the sh command works on 7.04
[09:35] <Ryo> at all.
[09:35] <WhoNeedszzz> jimcooncat_: 32 bit is more stable
[09:35] <ikonia> Ryo: can you give an example
[09:35] <gimpii> Ryo make sure you do sudo sh
[09:35] <ikonia> WhoNeedszzz: thats wrong too
[09:36] <Ryo> I do ever time
[09:36] <Raineer> Who: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php  is a very nice tool. It's a bootable CD and boots automatically into the Parition Tool. You will see it's a lot more user friendly than what you see in the installers.
[09:36] <Ryo> I ran the crappy installers from ATI
[09:36] <Ryo> didn't work
[09:36] <reverseblade> ubuntu has it. I dunno about ubuntustudio
[09:36] <Ryo> claimed there was a syntax error
[09:36] <ray_> any one know of any linux driver for intel easy pc cam

[09:36] <ikonia> Ryo:  thats not "anything" thats one thing
[09:36] <ray_> to make it work on edubuntu
[09:36] <jimcooncat_> ikonia: so what's your take for a server macheine?
[09:36] <parawizard> ikonia Compared to fiesty the hardware information only says it sees a quad core cpu and not each core independantly, system monitor only shows one core also.
[09:36] <Ryo> I was going to mention more
[09:36] <ray_> any help
[09:36] <Ryo> but it cut me off.
[09:36] <WhoNeedszzz> Raineer: ok thanks i will use that
[09:36] <Ryo> every single program I try to run with SH fails.
[09:37] <JRsup1> can anyone help me figure out if there's a way to backport a patch to 2.6.17-12-generic and then re-compile my kernel?
[09:37] <gimpii> !offtopic |gimpii
[09:37] <ikonia> jimcooncat depends on the requirements and hardware
[09:37] <ikonia> parawizard: are you running two different ubuntu versions ?
[09:37] <ray_> any one here know were i can linux driver for a intel easy pc cam model c110
[09:37] <Ryo> And I just tried the steam client too.  It also fails.
[09:37] <ikonia> parawizard: hardware monitoring is only geared up for single core - you have to use specifc tools to monitor multi-core/multi-socket cpu
[09:37] <vivabenfica> hi all
[09:37] <ShackJack> Ryo: You have to make the .sh programs executable   chmod +x /path/to/script.sh
[09:37] <ikonia> Ryo: whats the failed
[09:37] <ray_> not c110 its cs110
[09:38] <bullgard4> I am going to file an error report to Launchpad which needs a large attachment (50 kB) of data. At what place can I store this data in order to be permanently available to the Launchpad reviewers for > 1 month?
[09:38] <Ryo> always a syntax error.
[09:38] <ray_> any help
[09:38] <vivabenfica> any skype users?
[09:38] <gimpii> Ryo: steam as in steam the game management platform?
[09:38] <Ryo> even though on everything I've ran, it ran on other distros just fine.
[09:38] <niuq> hi,  i have installed compiz-fusion and i am wondering how can i change the speed when the viewports appears
[09:38] <ikonia> bullgard4: you can upload it to launchpad with the repot a bug option
[09:38] <niuq> any help
[09:38] <ikonia> vivabenfica: yes
[09:38] <Ryo> Yes, steam.  There is a linux version.

[09:38] <gimpii> Ryo: do you have win installed?
[09:38] <gimpii> wine*
[09:38] <Ryo> I have wine, yess.
[09:38] <Ryo> *yes
[09:39] <vivabenfica> ikonia - what version of ubuntu?  i use xubuntu 7.04 and mic won't work in skype or anywhere else
[09:39] <ikonia> parawizard: check "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[09:39] <niuq> ikonia, i thought i already asked
[09:39] <ikonia> vivabenfica: 7.04 and 6.01.1
[09:39] <ShackJack> niuq: see above ^^^ you want #ubuntu-effects
[09:39] <Ryo> but native support would be better, and this problem has been persistant, too.
[09:39] <JRsup1> !patch
[09:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about patch - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:39] <bullgard4> ikonia: I do not understand your phrase "with the repot a bug option". Say it in other words, please.
[09:39] <niuq> ShackJack: im already there, but no one seems to help
[09:39] <parawizard> ikonia only processor 0 is listed
[09:39] <vivabenfica> ikonia - and mic works?
[09:39] <ikonia> bullgard4: launchpad allows you to upload docs when you report a bug
[09:40] <niuq> ShackJack: that is why i came here

[09:40] <niuq> ShackJack: lol, i've been patience ^^
[09:40] <ShackJack> niuq: You can also try #compiz-fusion

[09:40] <ikonia> they are uploaded to launchapd

[09:41] <ray_> hi shackjack can you help me?
[09:41] <roy> hi, if i cancel a dist-upgrade, can i continue it sometime?
[09:41] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: make sure you have reverse name server resolution

[09:41] <ShackJack> !ask | ray_ (and not just to me)

[09:43] <ubuntuEdgy> and how can i upgrade ?
[09:43] <ray_> sorry ikonia its part of my disbility

[09:45] <ubotu> Dr_Link: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:45] <ikonia> alesan: the kernel handles cpu scaling - programs interface with it to control it
[09:45] <Dr_Link> Once I've put it in my drive and booted from it, how do I install Ubuntu?
[09:45] <ikonia> Dr_Link: click "install"
[09:45] <ubuntuEdgy> ikonia: thanks im going to  try and find out more about this
[09:45] <Dr_Link> ...
[09:45] <ShackJack> Dr_Link: It boots to live desktop where you can play around or click install like ikonia says...
[09:45] <alesan> ikonia, program can interface, but there are a few governors in the kernel that work alone
[09:45] <ray_> ikonia what verson is it come with it as instll if so what software you recamend for the pc cam
[09:46] <alesan> thety can be controlled through something in /proc or similar
[09:46] <ikonia> alesan: check which kernel moduile is loaded
[09:46] <ray_> ikonia see my q
[09:46] <ikonia> alesan: they are controlled through proc yes
[09:46] <alesan> ikonia, all modules can be loaded but inactive
[09:46] <Dr_Link> I can just click Install to make it enable Dual boot/partitioning so that I have Windows XP Home and Linux on the same hard drive?
[09:46] <vivabenfica> dr_link
[09:46] <ikonia> alesan: thats a fair point
[09:46] <Dr_Link> AND install it?
[09:46] <ubuntuEdgy> ikonia: my nfs files are mounted when i boot btw
[09:46] <plagerism> Hello, I am having a couple of issues with rp-pppoe and NetworkManager in Feisty.  When I start the network I get routes both from a private ip address routed by my adsl modem, and a ppp routes, however I don't want the eth to obtain an ip address, and I never specified it to do so anywhere.  Has anyone else seen this issue?
[09:46] <ShackJack> Dr_Link: You have to select manuall partiononing and make partionion but it will set up ual boot.
[09:46] <ShackJack> !partion | Dr_Link
[09:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about partion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[09:47] <mobal_> hi
[09:47] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: that shouldn't be a problem
[09:47] <alesan> ikonia, ok it seems I have no such thing
[09:47] <Dr_Link> ...Can it Autopartition for me? *curiosity*
[09:47] <alesan> I am using the server-kernel however
[09:47] <ikonia> alesan: one moment
[09:47] <alesan> maybe on a standard system?
[09:47] <mobal_> how can i update my aircrack-ng / is there any fresh packets?
[09:47] <opapo> How do you view apple trailers using firefox and powerpc Ubuntu Edgy?
[09:47] <ikonia> ahhh server kernel is low latency
[09:47] <ikonia> (bad wording)
[09:47] <ShackJack> Dr_Link: No, but a guide is here - not that hard - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition?highlight=%28partition%29
[09:47] <TheCreationist> My friend recently got rid of her wireless router and is not connecting her Feisty box directly to the cable modem via ethernet.  Her ethernet adapter is recognized, but she has no connection to the internet (although her Windows laptop connects fine with the same cable).  I have already tried configuring it manually with DHCP, but no luck.  Anyone know what else I can try?
[09:47] <alesan> ikonia, no low latency is another kernel :)
[09:47] <vivabenfica> click install, at some point it will ask how you want to partition hard drive, say manual, partition drive as you want to, remembering to make a swap partition, and good practice is to have atleast a separate / and /home (both formatted as ext3), i have never tried auto part
[09:48] <ikonia> alesan: as I said - bad wording
[09:48] <ShackJack> Dr_Link: It can only make one big partition - or use free space - so actually yeah, it can partition for you...
[09:48] <alesan> sorry
[09:48] <ikonia> alesan: I think the server kernel can do scaling, but its not setup by default
[09:48] <Dr_Link> I already have more than 3GB worth of space free
[09:48] <ikonia> alesan: I've seen a forum thread on it on ubuntuforums.com
[09:48] <Dr_Link> so I won't run into as many problems during installation
[09:48] <ikonia> .org
[09:48] <ikonia> Dr_Link: try it
[09:48] <vivabenfica> Creationist - she will need the actual IP, DNS, etc. info from ISP
[09:48] <ubuntuEdgy> ikonia: its fast with 1GB files but very slow with 7 and up
[09:48] <ShackJack> Dr_Link: 3GB is a little tight... no more space than that?
[09:49] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: check for NFSV4
[09:49] <ray_> no help :(\
[09:49] <ray_> :(
[09:49] <ubuntuEdgy>  thanks
[09:49] <vivabenfica> Crea - and you will have to specify them explicitly
[09:49] <vivabenfica> not with DHCP
[09:49] <ikonia> ubuntuEdgy: also check for your revser lookup - it will effect it more on a bigger file (more lookups)
 I already have more than 3GB worth of space free

[10:05] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica, what should it be?
[10:05] <WhoNeedszzz> so they all should be primary?
[10:05] <ShackJack> askand: Maybe .gconf /gconf2 accidentally deleted?
[10:05] <ikonia> WhoNeedszzz: depends on your personal layout
[10:05] <WhoNeedszzz> and linux before swap?
[10:05] <vivabenfica> ok who - what is total hard drive space, and what is current use, and your goal

[10:07] <ConstyXIV> how much effect does using a processor with VT extensions have on virtualization?
[10:07] <parawizard> ikonia if you were to treat it as a regular ubuntu installation would there be any further direction you might point me?

[10:08] <HardDisk> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[10:08] <WhoNeedszzz> ok then i will go do that
[10:08] <HardDisk> I installed it, cause some ubuntu users recommended it to me :/
[10:08] <ikonia> HardDisk: that package is in the nonfree repo
[10:08] <vivabenfica> ray - su gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:08] <vivabenfica> or if no gedit use mousepad
[10:08] <aryr100> is there a doc. on installing drivers ?
[10:09] <ikonia> HardDisk: well, its not an ubuntu product
[10:09] <HardDisk> and now I can't use synaptic pr apt-get
[10:09] <HardDisk> and my nvidia drivers are gone
[10:09] <ikonia> HardDisk: there is a guide on how to use synaptic on the forum
[10:09] <raymondjtoth> is all teaching me like im a nobody if so will leave
[10:09] <raymondjtoth> an d put wwinbdows back
[10:09] <ShackJack> raymondjtoth: See help.ubuntu.com - guide there: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[10:09] <HardDisk> ikonia: I know...
[10:09] <ikonia> HardDisk: so read it
[10:09] <ArmandoCano> hi everyone
[10:09] <ShackJack> raymondjtoth: you are not asking for help in the right manner... and not doing nay homework yourself...
[10:09] <ikonia> ShackJack: your turn on the wall ?
[10:09] <drewb1> Could somebody PLEASE explain the ubuntu directory system to me.
[10:10] <ShackJack> ikonia: Yeah, I couldn't resist :)
[10:10] <raymondjtoth> shack understand now
[10:10] <ikonia> drewb1: what part of it
[10:10] <vivabenfica> drew ask a specific q.?
[10:10] <HardDisk> if anyone can help me to recover I would appreciate it.
[10:10] <drewb1> I'm so confused, it seems like ubuntu spreads files all over the freaking place.
[10:10] <ikonia> drewb1: google for "linux fhs"
[10:10] <ArmandoCano> could someone help me configuring my nvidia card??
[10:10] <drewb1> I can never find anything after I install it.
[10:10] <ikonia> HardDisk: read the guide then you know how to do it
[10:10] <HardDisk> what guide?
[10:10] <ikonia> drewb1: check out "Linux FHS"
[10:10] <vivabenfica> drew whereis "nameofprogram" will show you where files are
[10:10] <ikonia> HardDisk: the one on the forum
[10:10] <drewb1> ikonio: will do.
[10:10] <vivabenfica> like whereis xchat
[10:10] <malocite> I'm trying to configure a box to autologin, can someone take a quick peak at something and tell me if I did it right?  i created a file in /home/malocite/.xinitrc that says exec/usr/bin/startx  but the instructions say to use something called fluxbox....   Manual is here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=303319
[10:10] <HardDisk> ...entitled? I have been googling
[10:11] <askand> Has anyone here had their gconf settings deleted somehow?
[10:11] <ShackJack> drewb1: You don't need to find anything really - everything has it's place, and all your user files are in /home - but there are some good guides out there...
[10:11] <ikonia> HardDisk: visit ubuntuforums.org and search for envy - and apt-get or synaptic and it will explain how to use the package manager and how to use/not use envy
[10:11] <ArmandoCano> when i try to make the nvidia driver to work it gives me an error
[10:12] <HardDisk> well I did that...will look again, but while I'm doing so, incase.. a link would help (checking now)
[10:12] <ikonia> !nvidia >harddisk
[10:12] <ikonia> !synaptic >harddisk

[10:13] <PriceChild> #ubuntu-pt then
[10:13] <biberao> i thought i was in the portuguese
[10:13] <biberao> one
[10:13] <biberao> LOL
[10:13] <askand> Has anyone here had their gconf settings deleted somehow?
[10:13] <Clavi> ikonia: briljant! it worked (with a little help from "man").
[10:13] <biberao> ArmandoCano and vivabenfica tls module? where do i get it?
[10:13] <WhoNeedszzz> ok i am in live cd now
[10:13] <HardDisk> I know how to use synaptic doh..
[10:13] <ikonia> Clavi: - well done
[10:13] <drewb1> ShackJack, I don't know how something's "place" is determined, so I'm reading that guide.
[10:13] <HardDisk> not even apt-get will update
[10:13] <drewb1> See y'all later
[10:13] <vivabenfica> why isn't this callend ubuntu-en???
[10:13] <ikonia> harddisk enable the non-free repo
[10:13] <biberao> vivabenfica this ia main one
[10:13] <biberao> .P
[10:13] <ikonia> HardDisk: it won't update if its not installed
[10:13] <vivabenfica> why is english automatically the default??
[10:13] <Happu> vivabenfica: why should it be?
[10:13] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: i am in install now
[10:14] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: disk that is
[10:14] <ShackJack> vivabenfica: Cause we have the biggest guns...
[10:14] <HardDisk> your giving advice based on other types of problems..nvm
[10:14] <parawizard> ikonia thanks for the help. It sucks after working hard to get my whole linux setup for recording I find out its not using 3 of my other Cpu cores. Wasted weeks of time which would probally have bought me a vista lisence xD
[10:14] <vivabenfica> because ubuntu is meant to be open and multilingual, so this should be ubuntu-en
[10:14] <biberao> where do i get amn tls module?
[10:14] <ikonia> parawizard: gutted for you. You could try something along the lines of installing ubuntu - then installing the ubuntustudio pacakges from a known good base
[10:14] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ...
[10:15] <ikonia> parawizard: as a long shot for you
[10:15] <vivabenfica> no answers for silly responses
[10:15] <vivabenfica> ok who
[10:15] <Johnny_88> how do u get root-access in ubuntu?
[10:15] <mabus> sudo -i
[10:15] <ikonia> Johnny_88: sudo
[10:15] <pace_t_zulu> benfica
[10:15] <vivabenfica> now go to system|gnome partition editor
[10:15] <PriceChild> !sudo | Johnny_88
[10:15] <ubotu> Johnny_88: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:15] <ikonia> Johnny_88: but if you can't read the docs to that level, you should be careful becoming root
[10:15] <PriceChild> mabus, please don't suggest full root terminals
[10:15] <raymondjtoth> shackjack got it
[10:16] <PriceChild> biberao, tcltls
[10:16] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok
[10:16] <Johnny_88> thx
[10:16] <PriceChild> biberao, sudo apt-get install tcltls

[10:16] <vivabenfica> what does it say
[10:16] <ikonia> parawizard: always an option
[10:16] <ArmandoCano> ShackJack: sorry... i installed the nvidia software for my nvidia fx 5200 it didnt gave any error on the instalation ... its just that when the xserver try to start it cant be started whit the nvidia driver...
[10:17] <Charli1> checking for C compiler default output file name...

[10:17] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: i unmouted and turned swap off
[10:18] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: i am assuming you want me to make the swap primary?

[10:18] <vivabenfica> who - stop and listen

[10:20] <ShackJack> vivabenfica: Just a tip - use autocomplete for IM handles so they are alerted of your response and others can follow the convo more easily ;)
[10:20] <Charli1> it's the audacious hotkey plugin if you're wondering
[10:20] <aryr100> how can I install this : Savage_4.0.3_binary.tgz ?
[10:21] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: now what
[10:21] <zmeiat_joro> ShackJack: I have them
[10:21] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz,  skip that
[10:21] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok so then what?
[10:21] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, do you care abouyt deleting linux partition?
[10:21] <ShackJack> zmeiat_joro: Cool you should be good to go...
[10:21] <Charli1> it has a makefile.in and a make file.am in it
[10:22] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: yes i don't want to reinstall everything
[10:22] <Charli1> but no makefile
[10:22] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, ok, right click on swap and delete it
[10:22] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok
[10:23] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: remake it as a primary?
[10:23] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, wait
[10:23] <LinuxProbie> what is the package I need to install to get java working in firefox?
[10:23] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok
[10:23] <jrib> !java > LinuxProbie (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:23] <mildner> how can I change the rights on a external HD
[10:23] <jrib> LinuxProbie: sun-java6-plugin
[10:24] <jrib> mildner: what filesystem
[10:24] <mildner> ntfs
[10:24] <LinuxProbie> firefox doesn't think it's installed
[10:24] <ShackJack> LinuxProbie: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts
[10:24] <LinuxProbie> it's asking for me to install it
[10:24] <jrib> !ntfs > mildner (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:24] <mildner> tells me I am not the owner
[10:24] <bkingx> Is there a utility that would allow me to scan a range of ip addesses/subnets for live devices?  But I don't have a router to route to other subnets.  So on my single 192.168.1.0 network, I want to scan for all ip addresses to see if a switch I bought off ebay has a configured IP address (the console will not work).
[10:24] <jrib> LinuxProbie: did you install sun-java6-plugin?
[10:24] <LinuxProbie> nope, doing that now.
[10:24] <WhoNeedszzz> LinuxProbie: use add/remove and search java
[10:25] <bkingx> So I am thinking if I wanted to scan 172.16.0.0, how can I do that from 192.168.1.0 without a route to that subnet?
[10:25] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, now resize linux, removing the space you want to allocate to windows, and keeping it at the front of the partition (next to windows)
[10:26] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: the space goes after the linux
[10:26] <WhoNeedszzz> pay
[10:26] <WhoNeedszzz> part*
[10:26] <C-{pR0F> Is there a MSN messenger that support voice chat for Linux ? ( i have ubuntu(fiesty)

[10:27] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, rt click on linux partition
[10:27] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, choose resize/move
[10:27] <WhoNeedszzz> k
[10:27] <Charli1> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.  ...why does it tell me this??
[10:28] <Charli1> and why didnt it come with a make file?
[10:28] <Gernimo> hello
[10:28] <Charli1> it told me to do this!
[10:28] <WhoNeedszzz> Charli1: did you configure?
[10:28] <Charli1> yeah i typed ./configure
[10:28] <Charli1> then make
[10:28] <Charli1> and thatns when the error happened
[10:28] <WhoNeedszzz> Charli1: did configure give any errors?
[10:28] <jrib> Charli1: what are you compiling?
[10:28] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, in new size, enter reduced size for linux partition
[10:28] <Charli1> an audacious plugin
[10:28] <WhoNeedszzz> Charli1: or missing dependencies?
[10:28] <LinuxProbie> well, that site still doesn't work...
[10:28] <LinuxProbie> >.<
[10:28] <Charli1> it's for the hotkeys
[10:28] <LinuxProbie> I get a java execption
[10:29] <ShackJack> Rex: Can you just "bookmark" the drive in Nautilus then use "Places" in F_Spot?
[10:29] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: i did that
[10:29] <Charli1> it did give me a few errors on ./configure
[10:29] <LinuxProbie> and java.com says it's out of date
[10:29] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, in Free space preceding, put that space you just took from linux parition
[10:29] <Rex> ShackJack: I will try that
[10:29] <Charli1> Here was the error
[10:29] <Charli1> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[10:29] <Charli1> See `config.log' for more details.
[10:29] <imbecile> hey guys, when i try to install theme for panel is it gtk2? or something else?
[10:29] <jrib> Charli1: install the 'build-essential' package
[10:30] <jrib> !compiling > Charli1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:30] <vivabenfica> Charli1, make sure you have gcc version needed and maybe libgcc as well
[10:30] <amicrawler> hey how to i add root to my login  screen ?
[10:30] <amicrawler> kde
[10:30] <amicrawler> 3.5
[10:30] <nullcode> Charli1, sudo apt-get install g++
[10:30] <norman_> i running fiesty on my acer lapton with beryl .tried compiz fusion wont run i have gnome and kde wm install do i have to remove gnome
[10:30] <Charli1> ok
[10:30] <vivabenfica> amicrawler, don't do that
[10:30] <ShackJack> !kde | amicrawler
[10:30] <ubotu> amicrawler: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[10:30] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: free space preceding is dimmed out
[10:30] <jrib> amicrawler: don't, you shoudn't really need to and it's a terrible idea.  Why do you want to?
[10:30] <File13> Intuitive
[10:30] <amicrawler> so i can fix my project
[10:31] <amicrawler> it wants root
[10:31] <Rex> ShackJack: it doesn't add it to places? Would you know the path to that folder?
[10:31] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, did you change the new size, and change size after to 0?
[10:31] <ShackJack> !sudo | amicrawler
[10:31] <ubotu> amicrawler: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:31] <amicrawler> virturalbox
[10:31] <Jack_Sparrow> amicrawler: I agree with jrib.. bad idea...  sudo will last for 10 or 15 minutes after you enter password
[10:31] <ShackJack> Rex: Yeah, it should add - bookmark... You have to switch to places in nautilus to see it...
[10:31] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: what are you talking about after to 0?
[10:31] <amicrawler> i keep telling me to make shure that vbox is a added user
[10:31] <ShackJack> Rex: You can see path when surfing in naautilus - smb://path.t/folder
[10:32] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, 1st ask politelt, i'm doing you a favor here
[10:32] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, 1st ask politely, i'm doing you a favor here
[10:32] <amicrawler> The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect..
[10:32] <amicrawler> VBox status code: -1909 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_ACCESSIBLE).
[10:32] <jrib> amicrawler: I think you just need to add your user to the vboxusers group with this command:  sudo adduser YOUR_USERNAME vboxusers
[10:32] <Rex> ShackJack: you mean places is F-Spot? It does not list it. I can't figure out how to browse to that bookmarked path.
[10:32] <Charli1> ok so I'm installing ALL the gcc compilers just to make sure all my bases are covered
[10:33] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok
[10:33] <jrib> Charli1: you only need build-essential, it will give you the stuff you need
[10:33] <Gernimo> I have a pb with my Nvidia 8600M GS, I have low fps ... anyone know how fix it ?
[10:33] <ShackJack> ShackJack: there should be drop down to list places - you can see in nauitlus browser places, no?
[10:33] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, change free space following to 0
[10:33] <ShackJack> Rex: there should be drop down to list places - you can see in nauitlus browser places, no?... You can also go to Places->Network in Nautilus and bookmark
[10:33] <Charli1> yeah i dont have it installed either. you're saying once thats installed, it should work?
[10:34] <LibTech> Why isn't build-essential part of the default ubuntu installation?
[10:34] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: it won't let me
[10:34] <jrib> Charli1: well you need build-essential and the necessary dependencies for what you are compiling
[10:34] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, did you change new size?
[10:34] <Rex> I can see it there, but I can't see how to browse to smb://192.168.0.1/Image%20Expert%20Images in F-Spot.
[10:34] <park390> ok. Well i had tried to install ubuntu version 5.04 but i couldnt get x server to work so in my mind it was pretty much pointless. my set up has three partitions. one is a windows vista partition, one was a ubuntu partittion, and one is a hp recovery partition for the drivers on my laptop. Now i just got GRUB set up to let me choose to boot to windows vista partition and the useless ubuntu 5.04. im using a 6.06 live right now. my proble
[10:34] <park390> art and now grub says error 22 and i cant even boot into ubuntu anymore
[10:34] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: free space preceding is dimmed out
[10:34] <amicrawler> this is what is sayes     sudo: /dev/vboxdrv: command not found
[10:34] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, did you change new size?
[10:34] <park390> any body help?
[10:34] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: yes
[10:35] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, to what, and from what?
[10:35] <Charli1> yeah when i checked it in the repos., it told me the other dependencies it would install
[10:35] <Charli1> i think i saw a libc or something in there like that
[10:35] <weston> Has anyone had problems with Ubuntu crashing when trying to connect to wireless networks???
[10:35] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: to 20713 from 30953
[10:35] <ShackJack> Rex: File->Open in F-Spot doesn't give you dialog with Places?
[10:35] <Rex> ShackJack:  I can see it there, but I can't see how to browse to smb://192.168.0.1/Image%20Expert%20Images in F-Spot.
[10:35] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz,  and both preceding and following are dimmed?
[10:36] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: no following isn't
[10:36] <ShackJack> Rex: Can't just pick from file->open dialog?
[10:36] <park390> ?
[10:36] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, change following to 0
[10:36] <ShackJack> vivabenfica: You should get a medal for this one ;)
[10:36] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: when i do that it makes new size back to original
[10:36] <vivabenfica> ShackJack, my contribution to the community
[10:37] <weston> Is anyone using Feisty 7.04? or is it still too buggy???
[10:37] <LibTech> Charli1: I think I installed build-essentials from the ubuntu cd. It is a lot easier that way. If you don't have internet access.
[10:37] <Rex> ShackJack: it lists my other places there, but not any SMB connections.
[10:37] <ShackJack> weston: Wha? No it's fine :)
[10:37] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, when you started gnome partition editor, did it ask for a password?
[10:37] <ShackJack> Rex: So it doesn't have the place you just added in there? Weird?
[10:37] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: no
[10:37] <weston> Hmm, I've had nothing but problems with 7.04 so far.
[10:37] <Charli1> well i just installed it and the ./configure command did a whole lot more than it did the first time
[10:37] <Raineer> weston: 7.04 is the last official release, it is very stable
[10:37] <Rex> ShackJack: by other places I mean physical and logical disks... but no SMB shares.
[10:38] <Charli1> but now it said it cant find the audaucious package
[10:38] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, ok try this, close gnome partition editor completely
[10:38] <Charli1> and also the gtk+-2.0 package
[10:38] <ShackJack> Rex: You can find address in nautilus...
[10:38] <Rex> ShackJack: I tried restarting F-Spot too... no go... I am stumped... I also tried pasting the addy into F-Spot
[10:38] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ok
[10:38] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, now, do you know how to get a command line?
[10:38] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: yes
[10:38] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, ok, great
[10:39] <salah> just a quick question, how do I port back to Apache 2.01? The only one I find in the packages is 2.23 which I can't use
[10:39] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, enter sudo gparted on comand line
[10:39] <jrib> Charli1: did you read through the page ubotu sent you?
[10:39] <WhoNeedszzz> ok
[10:39] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, partition editor opened
[10:39] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, ?
[10:39] <Raineer> salah: you may need to install from source, I'm not sure there will be a package available
[10:39] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: yes but does the same thing
[10:39] <Charli1> yeah i'm reading it right now
[10:39] <Injen> "Gentlepeople", what are good methods to hunt down rootkits on linux in general? I fear I know the best practices to find them on Windows, such as browsing startup hives in registry; port scanning yourself; netstat; etc.

[10:40] <jrib> !please > park390 (see the private message from ubotu)

[10:40] <DShepherd> vivabenfica, ok thanks.. will check it out
[10:40] <jrib> Charli1: well these two commands will probably help you:  'sudo apt-get build-dep audacious-plugins' and 'sudo aptitude install audacious-plugins-dev'
[10:40] <exs> How can I use my laptops wireless connection networked so I can use the net on my desktop ubuntu machine?
[10:41] <vivabenfica> DShepherd, it is the google tool, very user friendly

[10:41] <jrib> park390: please be respectful of others
[10:41] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, so now you see ONLY 2 primary partitions windows, linux with free space that was swap in between?

[10:45] <Johnny_88> im installing php. from where do i get the .access -file?
[10:45] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: so?
[10:46] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, change new size to whatever you need allocated to windows
[10:46] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: i don't want to delete it if that is what you are leading to
[10:47] <ShackJack> Rex: Sorry don't have in front - I assumed you can surf to any places in nautilus - can't imaging why it's not thee...
[10:47] <mchm> when i try to boot my computer to my windows partition grub says error 22. what should i do
[10:47] <bathat> i cannot get alsa sound to work under Ubuntu
[10:47] <imbecile> what theme type do i use for panels? gtk2?

[10:48] <JESUSfreak> hello
[10:48] <JESUSfreak> hey how do you install themes in kde? and window decorations
[10:48] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, color of outline of rectangle
[10:48] <ShackJack> !sound | bathat
[10:48] <ubotu> bathat: 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
[10:48] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: purpleish, it is reiserfs
[10:48] <ShackJack> !kubuntu | JESUSfreak
[10:48] <ubotu> JESUSfreak: 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
[10:48] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, wtf? why??
[10:48] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: old superstition
[10:49] <JESUSfreak> hey do you guys know when there is gonna be a shippit of xubuntu available???
[10:50] <robersonfox> hi people, how i install the 0.14 version of MonoDevelop in may Ubuntu?
[10:50] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ...
[10:50] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, ok, no more from me. i'd suggest starting from scratch with linux partition. you're taking up your time and mine this way. that way you'd take yours only. delete linux and swap. resize windows. with emplty space left, make linux a primary ext3 and swap a primary ext3. good luck
[10:51] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: swap isn't ext3, it is linux-swap...
[10:51] <ShackJack> JESUSfreak: No date set due to lack of funding...
[10:51] <mchm> when i try to boot my computer to my windows partition during the grub part it says error 22. how do i get grub off my system?
[10:51] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, yes
[10:51] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, yes, keep swap linux-swap
[10:52] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: thought so
[10:52] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: but why is reiserfs so diff from ext3?
[10:52] <imbecile> what theme type do i use for panels? gtk2?metacity?
[10:53] <robersonfox> JESUSfreak: Unfortunately, unlike the other Ubuntu derivatives, Xubuntu does not yet have free cds available for shipping due to
[10:53] <robersonfox> ack of funding.
[10:53] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, i'd suggest you find somehwere else to make arrogant "thought so" retorts, than where people are helping you out of kindness. I have no more patience. I gave you my solution above. Now, be grown up, and try it or not, but don't keep wasting my time and yours.
[10:53] <Rex> ShackJack: just in case you were curious, it turns out that I may have to define the share permanantly in fstab. Ugh.
[10:53] <robersonfox> lack of funding.
[10:53] <ShackJack> Rex: :)
[10:53] <JESUSfreak> doest the xfce have eycandy and stuff in xubuntu?
[10:53] <JESUSfreak> never really seen it
[10:54] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: that wasn't meant to be a "thought so" retort but an understanding
[10:54] <vivabenfica> JESUSfreak, try the live boot CD and see it
[10:54] <vivabenfica> WhoNeedszzz, fair enough, but i'm still done
[10:54] <ShackJack> JESUSfreak: Yes, you can install compiz fusion etc... dunno if Prefs->Desktop effects is there by default..
[10:54] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: but as i asked, why is ext3 so diff from reiserfs?
[10:55] <JESUSfreak> thanks a lot
[10:55] <vivabenfica> JESUSfreak, pray about it too. your personal savior should be able to help.
[10:55] <WhoNeedszzz> vivabenfica: ?
[10:55] <mchm> how do i delete grub so i when i boot my comp it just automatically boots into windows

[10:57] <NixMan> what is the name of that program that allows you to use "multimedia keys" such as those found on a microsoft wireless keyboard
[10:57] <isaac_> how can i manipulate a hard drive failure on a laptop?
[10:58] <CheshireViking> !repeat | NixMan
[10:58] <ubotu> NixMan: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:58] <hajhouse> C-{pR0F: there is no su password (root password) on default ubuntu install. you need to use sudo (with your user's passwd)
[10:58] <savetheWorld> isaac_: Please rephrase the question or clarify the scope|requirements of what you want
[10:58] <setuid> hajhouse, Not true
[10:58] <ubuntu_noob> vivabenfica, How can I talk?
[10:58] <savetheWorld> manipulate is a bit vague
[10:58] <setuid> sudo su -
[10:58] <setuid> passwd root

[10:58] <savetheWorld> isaac_: do you mean create?
[10:58] <ubuntu_noob> says PMs are blocked, becasue of spam
[10:58] <mchm> nvm
[10:58] <tristan_work> C-{pR0F, you can always "sudo passwd" ofcourse if you dont like it :)
[10:58] <isaac_> savetheworld, i need the hardrive to fail, and stay in the warranty
[10:58] <vivabenfica> ubuntu_noob, use channel here
[10:58] <tristan_work> or atleast, thats what this heretic here did :)
[10:58] <savetheWorld> isaac_: thats called fraud
[10:58] <C-{pR0F> hajhouse: i'm trying to install a software that require the su not the sudo ,  i don't know why
[10:58] <ubuntu_noob> OK
[10:59] <isaac_> :(
[10:59] <vivabenfica> ubuntu_noob, fast
[10:59] <isaac_> ok nvm
[10:59] <ubuntu_noob> Is there a partitioning tool I can use on the ubuntu 7.04 live cd?
[10:59] <hajhouse> setuid: of course there will be a root passwd if you make one. the point is, there is no root passwd by default and su will not work unless sudo is used first
[10:59] <ubuntu_noob> or what is the best tool I should download
[10:59] <hajhouse> C-{pR0F: try sudo bash to get a root shell
[10:59] <vivabenfica> ubuntu_noob, yes, gnome partition editor on sytem menu
[10:59] <jrib> ubuntu_noob: system -> administration -> GNOME partition editor
[10:59] <catalyst_media> hey guys I'm new to linux and I'm trying to install KomodoEdit in Ubuntu Feisty Fawn does anyone know how to do that? it is in a tar.gz format
[11:00] <hajhouse> C-{pR0F: or do what setuid said to make a password for root
[11:00] <jrib> C-{pR0F: what software?
[11:00] <ubuntu_noob> So I can run the ubuntu cd, and edit my shrink my xp partition?
[11:00] <C-{pR0F> the sudo passwd worked
[11:00] <vivabenfica> catalyst_media,  at command line tar xvfz whatever.tar.gz
[11:00] <C-{pR0F> thankx guys
[11:00] <tristan_work> :)

[11:00] <ubuntu_noob> Thanks.
[11:00] <CydeWeys_> Anyone have an explanation for this error when running apt-get update?
[11:00] <CydeWeys_> Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[11:00] <chazco> hi, can anyone tell me how to change the resolution used by the login screen in Ubuntu 7.04? I need 1440x900 but its using something larger. Once i log in however, the resolution is correct...
[11:01] <hajhouse> catalyst_media: do you know whether the program is ready-to-run (binary) or source files?
[11:01] <CydeWeys_> Going to that URL, it appears not to be gzipped, although it should be?
[11:01] <catalyst_media> not sure I did notice it had a file called install.sh in it?
[11:01] <ubuntu_noob> I'm going to try, thanks for fast help ^^
[11:01] <mchm> how do i uninstall grub from my windows partition
[11:01] <vivabenfica> catalyst_media, ok,even easier, after unpacking, sudo install.sh should work
[11:01] <hajhouse> catalyst_media: is there a README file in the program's distribution? it will probably have instructions
[11:01] <vivabenfica> !grub > mchm
[11:02] <bathat> i cannot get alsa sound to work, and aplay -l lists the integrated sound chip
[11:02] <CydeWeys_> Is there some error in the Ubuntu repository?
[11:02] <catalyst_media> lemme check
[11:02] <bathat> all channel are unmuted
[11:02] <vivabenfica> i'm off
[11:02] <bathat> it always worked great under Debian
[11:03] <janeppo> mchm: your Windows CD on booting from it offers to restore the boot sector
[11:03] <admind> df
[11:03] <Gigi> Hi there!  There is any way to browse a forum anonymously?  If so, how?
[11:03] <vivabenfica> mchm, You need to go into the BIOS and set the CD to be the first device to boot, put the hard drive second.
[11:03] <vivabenfica> Do you have Windows installed already? If so, boot from the CD, enter the recovery console (press R when it asks you whether you want to install windows etc.) When you're at the console, type:
[11:03] <vivabenfica> fixmbr
[11:03] <vivabenfica> and that will remove GRUB from your system.
[11:03] <vivabenfica> If you don't have Windows installed, GRUB will be overwritten as part of the installation.
[11:03] <CydeWeys_> Can some Ubuntu person please check this URL and see why it isn't properly gzipped on the server?  http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[11:03] <CydeWeys_> It's causing apt-get update to fail.
[11:04] <hajhouse> catalyst_media: is there a file called configure in the program's directory?
[11:04] <GRubub> Does anyone know what repositories I need in order to install ImageMAgick? sudo apt-get install imagemagick is not functioning
[11:04] <catalyst_media> no
[11:04] <hajhouse> catalyst_media: is there a file called Makefile?
[11:04] <mchm> vivabenfica what cd do i boot from
[11:04] <admind> #
[11:04] <vivabenfica> catalyst_media, sudo sh install.sh
[11:04] <catalyst_media> I did that sudo install.sh and it seems to be working but it isn't quite done
[11:04] <vivabenfica> mchm, windows
[11:04] <admind> h
[11:04] <Sakura> No gzip error in http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[11:05] <hajhouse> catalyst_media: it's probably already compiled, so yeah just running install.sh should do the trick.
[11:05] <mchm> vivabenfica windows came installed on my laptop and hp didnt give me a cd. is there any way to uninstall grub without a windows cd
[11:05] <bulmer> hajhouse: ummm configure should not be part of the tarball, its part of autoconf utility
[11:05] <vivabenfica> mchm, don't know
[11:05] <jrib> GRubub: imagemagick is in main:
[11:05] <jrib> !info imagemagick | GRubub
[11:05] <ubotu> grubub: imagemagick: Image manipulation programs. In component main, is optional. Version 7:6.2.4.5.dfsg1-0.14ubuntu0.1 (feisty), package size 721 kB, installed size 3156 kB
[11:05] <mchm> anyone know where i can get a bootleg windows cd so i can fix grub
[11:05] <jrib> !grub > mchm (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:05] <GRubub> hmm... for whatever reason its not finding it in the reps...
[11:06] <gimpii> !offtopic |gimpii
[11:06] <jrib> GRubub: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:06] <hajhouse> bulmer: true, though the configure script is typically pre-generated and included in the tarball
[11:06] <mchm> jrib i didnt loose grub after installing windows i broke grub after deleting ubuntu
[11:06] <janeppo> CydeWeys: I did a wget, next gunzip and found no error
[11:06] <crackintosh> my ssh sessions keep getting ended by the server using ubuntu. is there anyway I can increase the time out limit?
[11:06] <mchm> how can i fix that
[11:06] <tck> how come there is not /etc/modules.conf file and how does one go about getting it
[11:06] <skkane> anyone have experience with ntfs3g ?
[11:06] <GRubub> !pastebin
[11:06] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:06] <CydeWeys_> janeppo: I did a wget and I end up with an uncompressed file?
[11:07] <skkane> i'm having a very weird problem with it
[11:07] <jrib> mchm: the page gives instructions for reinstalling grub
[11:07] <savetheWorld> CydeWeys_: that can happen.  depends on how its stored on the server
[11:07] <GRubub> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31955/
[11:07] <vivabenfica> mchm, try booting with live linux cd, go to command, then type sudo install-mbr /dev/hda
[11:07] <savetheWorld> CydeWeys_: what was the full URL of the wget?
[11:07] <mchm> ok thanks
[11:07] <janeppo> mchm, do you have any cd you can boot from?
[11:07] <vivabenfica> mchm, welcome

[11:10] <imbecile> where do i get affinity?
[11:11] <neverblue> salah, have you setup the device in those applications?
[11:11] <savetheWorld> CydeWeys_: browsers will often uncomprersss a compressed file on the fily
[11:11] <jrib> GRubub: well it installs a bunch of tools like 'convert' and 'mogrify', try 'man imagemagick' or 'man convert'.  That should link you to the online docs
[11:11] <savetheWorld>  CydeWeys_ wget does NOT do that.

[11:13] <peppiz> Hi! I've got an nvidia 7900, and I cant get it working well.. I've tried clicking System->Administration->Restricted Drivers Manager, but when I reboot, X wont'start saying it can't load the GLX module (libglx.so or something), and when I install from the .tar.gz on nvidia's site, it won't load after a reboot, so I have to reinstall it *every time* I reboot

[11:19] <WhoNeedszzz> janeppo, ok and did u use restricted driver manager or build from source or package?
[11:19] <Jimme1> janeppo, a cube can only ever have 6 sides - Any more, any less, it's not a cube!

[11:20] <janeppo> WN: the restricted drivers don't work for me. 4 years ago I started choosing among the nvidia install scripts
[11:20] <neverblue> Meta4ical, to actually move them on 'top' rather than 'left', you must follow my previous directions
[11:21] <unagi> peppiz sounds like you need to update something in xorg.conf
[11:21] <salah> unagi, well, the music file is playing, but there is no sound coming out
[11:21] <Meta4ical> weston: my ew-7128g is an rt61 chipset, detected and working as soon as I installed ubuntu

[11:21] <peppiz> unagi: So I don't think that's it
[11:21] <Meta4ical> neverblue: My channels are now tabs on the top though, like I wanted. I must've worded it incorrectly
[11:21] <unagi> i cant imagine xorg not being changed with a new driver whether thats checked or not but i guess i could be wrong
[11:21] <ipx> What application can I stream my music through? (shoutcast server) Can I do it in Rhythmbox with a plugin? (This one was a bit tricky to google for)

[11:22] <Orfeous> what mount options do i need to specify to get support for utf-8 and iso-8859-1 for smbfs filesystem?

[11:22] <janeppo> WN: question?
[11:22] <unagi> but nvidias installer is installing drivers for linux yes?
[11:22] <Meta4ical> weston: this is the pci version right?
[11:23] <weston> Yes
[11:23] <peppiz> unagi: Yeah, but it asks you if you want it to write a config, and if I say no, it still works
[11:23] <unagi> have you tried installing it while checking edit xorg?
[11:23] <peppiz> unagi: It's just that whenever ubuntu reboots, it does something
[11:23] <whonicca> can someone please help me compile this program, can u please tell me what program i am missing for in order for this to work?, http://pastebin.com/m27e873e1
[11:23] <peppiz> While checking edit ?
[11:23] <weston> Yes, it is the PCI version...
[11:23] <unagi> u said that you install it and tell it not to update xorg right?
[11:24] <Meta4ical> weston: weird ... I don't really how to help you as my total experience with Ubuntu has been 2 days ... but I will say that my wireless connection did NOT work when it was unencrypted, I had to have WEP or WPA enabled on my router to connect
[11:24] <peppiz> whonicca: gtk
[11:24] <weston> Hmmm ,that is very strange
[11:24] <Meta4ical> weston: To connect to my specific network I had to do the manual configuration with DHCP, you could try that?
[11:24] <peppiz> unagi: Yes I did
[11:24] <whonicca> peppiz, doesnt it come with ubuntu by default?
[11:25] <weston> I gave that a try also, but I had no luck
[11:25] <peppiz> whonicca: Not the development files, I wouldn't think so
[11:25] <peppiz> whonicca: apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
[11:25] <ipx> What application can I stream my music through? (shoutcast server) Can I do it in Rhythmbox with a plugin? (This one was a bit tricky to google for :))
[11:25] <triden1> !java
[11:25] <whonicca> thankyou
[11:25] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:25] <peppiz> or libgtk2.0-dev
[11:25] <unagi> then it sounds to me like the installer is using a temp version of xorg and deleting it when you reboot....since when you reboot its using the default xorg then naturally the driver wont work
[11:25] <unagi> try installing it and allowing it to edit xorg but back up ur xorg first
[11:26] <Meta4ical> weston: That's extremely odd .. I'd try posting/searching the forums for someone with a similar problem. The only input I can give you is we have the exact same wireless card, and mine was working right from the get-go
[11:26] <peppiz> unagi: It's not, I'm running a secondary X server manually on :1, which uses xorg.conf (I even specify it explcitily), so it's not the config.
[11:26] <unagi> ok then
[11:26] <Jimme1> ipx, what are you looking to do?
[11:26] <m1r> hi all
[11:26] <Meta4ical> Anyone know what the name of the windows fonts package is?
[11:26] <weston> Ok, thanks for the input meta--
[11:27] <Meta4ical> weston: No problem, sorry I couldn't be of more help.
[11:27] <avarner_> hi mlr
[11:27] <unagi> when i installed ubuntu i just couldnt help myself......i had to install the vista cursors =)
[11:27] <ipx> Jimme1: my friend has a shoutcast server setup, and i want to stream music through it so everybody can listen. I've done this with a plugin for winamp, but cant find any plugin for rhythmbox nor any other client that can do that!
[11:27] <m1r> anyone has some experiance with HSDPA+ vodafone card ?
[11:27] <jrib> Meta4ical: mstt-corefonts
[11:28] <Jimme1> ipx, I'm fairly sure that VLC can
[11:28] <jrib> Meta4ical: oops, no dash: msttcorefonts
[11:28] <ipx> Jimme1: thanks, i'll see
[11:28] <Agip> is someone having problems to connect to ubuntuforums.org?
[11:28] <Meta4ical> jrib: THanks
[11:28] <Jimme1> ipx, also, I think XMMS is supposed to be the closest Linux equivalent to Winamp, maybe try that
[11:29] <Meta4ical> Wow, does anyone else have an issue with Ubuntu where it doesn't detect you turning caps lock off or something, so words sort of go LIke THis?
[11:29] <ipx> ok i'll take a look
[11:29] <Guilty_as_Sin> anyone familiar w/ NX..  I'm trying to verify that all machines need both server and client packages, correct?
[11:29] <dxdt> ipx: I know that the new version of the Amarok mp3 player supports and lists all the shoutcast servers for you, so it might as well
[11:29] <dxdt> support streaming them out since it already lets you play them
[11:29] <marshall> how do you mount an ISO cd image?
[11:29] <ipx> ok i'll take a look, thanks dxdt
[11:29] <Jimme1> ipx, yeah, Amarok is very very good.
[11:30] <m1r> guilty_as_sin ; client need only client, server needs server
[11:30] <m1r> as far as i instaled it
[11:30] <Guilty_as_Sin> are you sure about that?
[11:30] <NemesisD> hi, to get a lamp server going for a LAN on the non-server edition of ubuntu should I need to do a lot more than just install the apache2/php5/mysql packages? i did it on this system but it was a long time ago
[11:30] <m1r> i just dl client package to conect to server
[11:30] <marshall> how do you mount an ISO cd image?
[11:30] <dxdt> NemesisD: neg, those should be all you need
[11:31] <dem0n> how do i connect to vnc?
[11:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> marshall, to play the file?
[11:31] <dxdt> NemesisD: there might be a libapache2php5 package,  search for libapache2 and check for that
[11:31] <Jimme1> marshall, sudo mount -o loop /location/ofiso /mountpoint
[11:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> just right click and play with vnc
[11:31] <NemesisD> dxdt, and should they require a lot of configuration? I can't remember if the package has some sort of configuration app that runs or what
[11:31] <dem0n> right click ware?
[11:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> vnc it will play it iso form
[11:31] <dxdt> NemesisD: nah, not a lot of config at all
[11:31] <CydeWeys_> Anyone know what getter is used by apt-get that generates the following line?  33% [1 libapache2-mod-php5 857198/2531kB 33%] 
[11:31] <dem0n> ... u obusly dont know what vnc is
[11:32] <dem0n> !vnc
[11:32] <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
[11:32] <NemesisD> dxdt, that's what I like to hear, thank you :)
[11:32] <Guilty_as_Sin> vlc
[11:32] <Guilty_as_Sin> sorry
[11:32] <Guilty_as_Sin> I've been reading about nx all day
[11:32] <marshall> Guilty_as_Sin, Jimme1: im tyring to install WoW and i have the cd images instead of the CDs
[11:32] <Guilty_as_Sin> so vnc is on my mind
[11:32] <Jimme1> marshall, ahh, let me help you
[11:32] <Guilty_as_Sin> marshall I meant VLC Player (assuming you have it installed)
[11:33] <stuart-> i love how i can have a bunch of heavy processes running and still not affect each other
[11:33] <cje> hi, I am trying to install a package called "transcode" via the Adept package manager, and it is not showing up in the list of packages.  I am wondering if someone could please help me find the repository that has it.
[11:33] <marshall> Guilty_as_Sin: yeah i know, these are software cd images no dvds or something
[11:33] <Guilty_as_Sin> I see..  well did you see the comment above?
[11:34] <isaac__> can someone here run me through and explain a few things on the smb.conf?
[11:34] <Guilty_as_Sin> sudo mount -o loop /location/ofiso /mountpoint
[11:34] <marshall> Guilty_as_Sin: lol ok, thanks
[11:34] <Guilty_as_Sin> make sure you change that to the correct location though
[11:34] <oninoshiko> does anyone know why synfig studio doesnt work in ubuntu
[11:35] <hustlebird> how do i install a program once it is on my desktop
[11:35] <Jason_D> hey
[11:36] <Guilty_as_Sin> hustlebird, what type of file is it?
[11:36] <hustlebird> firefox
[11:36] <ndee> how can I see what a process exactly does at the very moment? one process is just eating away my cpu time. I also killed it before(it's a ruby on rails application)
[11:36] <Meta4ical> I swear not once have I been able to find a comfortable font to look at on ubuntu unless I use bold
[11:36] <ubuntuEdgy> any way to maximise utorrent  ?
[11:36] <Guilty_as_Sin> just open terminal and type sudo apt-get install firefox
[11:36] <Meta4ical> Why by default does every font hurt my eyes, everything seems blurred
[11:37] <kahrytan> Meta4ical: something is wrongwith your eyes
[11:37] <cje> hustlebird, you should try to install firefox with the Adept package manager.
[11:37] <hustlebird> do i need to change the directory
[11:37] <Meta4ical> I don't encounter this issue on windows?
[11:37] <Guilty_as_Sin> or synaptic
[11:37] <Meta4ical> and on windows I use 1280 x 1024, I'm on 1024 x 768
[11:37] <avis> Meta4ical, something is most likely wrong with your video rendering.  i am able to tolerate ubuntu fonts.  i do wish there were better
[11:37] <Geminias> !gnome-art
[11:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-art - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:37] <Meta4ical> they're perfectly readable, but look skinny? if you can understand
[11:38] <Meta4ical> I have to bold everything just to give it some body
[11:38] <Guilty_as_Sin> gnome art manager is nice if that is what you are looking 4
[11:38] <Guilty_as_Sin> just dig it out of the repos using synaptic
[11:38] <Geminias> is gnome-art extremely buggy?  i try to download things and it gives segmenation fault and stuff
[11:38] <cje> hustlebird, did you find the Aept package manager or synaptic?
[11:38] <hustlebird> couldn't find it in synaptic
[11:39] <Geminias> sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[11:39] <Geminias> however for me it is extremely buggy
[11:39] <Geminias> like you cant even use it
[11:39] <Geminias> its that buggy
[11:39] <Guilty_as_Sin> hustlebird you couldn't find firefox in synaptic?
[11:39] <hustlebird> just the old version
[11:39] <kahrytan> !info gnome-art
[11:39] <hustlebird> trying to install the new one
[11:39] <ubotu> gnome-art: install GNOME themes from art.gnome.org. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2-5 (feisty), package size 26 kB, installed size 200 kB
[11:39] <peppiz> It appears as if nvidia_drv.so is removed before or after each reboot, I can't find it now (after slocate -u), but if i reinstall the nvidia drivers, it's there.. Then I reboot, and nvidia_drv_so is gone again
[11:40] <Guilty_as_Sin> get the old one, it will update anyway
[11:40] <ubuntu_noob> Hello again.
[11:40] <Meta4ical> Does anyone have any personal experience with ENVY? I'm having difficulties getting my x1550 working with fglrx and am looking towards it
[11:40] <PriceChild> !envy | Meta4ical
[11:40] <ubotu> Meta4ical: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[11:41] <cje> I am trying to find the repository that would have a program called transcode.  Any suggestions?
[11:41] <Screpho1> where can i get a full list of linux compatible hardware?
[11:41] <ubuntu_noob> Can anyone define 'TWICE' when running chkdsk /f ?
[11:41] <Meta4ical> I see..
[11:41] <PriceChild> Screpho1, there isn't one...
[11:41] <w1ls0n_> Howdy..
[11:41] <Meta4ical> PriceChild: Unfortunately the restricted drivers manager didn't work
[11:41] <PriceChild> Meta4ical, and the wiki?
[11:42] <avis> Meta4ical, for what its worth i've used envy on my system without it breaking anything
[11:42] <Meta4ical> I don't believe I followed the wiki guide, I follow a forum post if I recall but it didn't work either
[11:42] <Screpho1> i want to check if my hardware is compatible, wheres the best place?
[11:42] <Guilty_as_Sin> Envy uses brute force
[11:42] <d4rkmonkey> Does anyone know if ophcrack is in the Ubuntu repositories? I downloaded the source but I can't seem to compile it
[11:42] <PriceChild> Screpho1, download and burn a linux live cd... boot off it and look to see if things work :)
[11:42] <PriceChild> Screpho1, you can run the live cd without touching your hard drive
[11:43] <Screpho1> they dont work. pricechild, i've tried 4
[11:43] <Guilty_as_Sin> d4rkmonkey, just burn an iso of ophcrack...
[11:43] <PriceChild> !doesn't work | Screpho1
[11:43] <ubotu> Screpho1: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.

[11:44] <ConfidentiaL> I am using xwinwrap btw...
[11:44] <Guilty_as_Sin> is it a separate machine?
[11:44] <jr> hi i just installed sun java 1.6.0_02 on breezy, and the applets arent loading, any1 mind helping me out?

[11:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> how do you cue the norris jokes?
[11:46] <PriceChild> Meta4ical, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI - you may have to adjust the edgy ones to get it to work
[11:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> I forgot

[11:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> oh yeah sorry

[11:46] <hustlebird> is a 700 mb cd big enough to burn the new ubuntu iso keeps telling me its no
[11:46] <Meta4ical> PriceChild: I have a combined total of 6 hours or so experience under linux, could you clarify what adjust might mean?

[11:48] <jr> tab?
[11:48] <tiffanie> Hi. I'm having an issue with my laptop: whenever I close the lid the system locks up. Anyone know how to resolve this?
[11:48] <PriceChild> Meta4ical, hehe yeah exactly... :s
[11:49] <jr> im using xchat :o
[11:49] <Meta4ical> I'm assuming it can't be too hard, a bunch of people on the ubuntu forums seem to have gotten it working. I tried PMing a few of them but nobody responded
[11:49] <oninoshiko> !info synfig-studio

 ok
[11:49] <hustlebird> does anyone know how to get a smaller ubuntu version.  for some reason i can't burn the 698mb iso on a 700mb cd
[11:49] <Screpho2> my window crashed was there a reply, pricechild, uboto
[11:49] <Screpho2> ?
[11:49] <kahrytan> oninoshiko: try /msg ubotu  too
[11:49] <avis> Meta4ical, in times where this channel has failed the forums have come through for me

[11:50] <ConfidentiaL> I am trying to set a terminal as my background through xwinwrap, but I can't seem to make it draw to the background, just open a new window. Does someone have any tips for me?
[11:50] <jr> Meyvn,  thnx
[11:50] <Meyvn> btw, is it possible to decrease the size of the icons on your desktop in GNOME? with all the customizability of ubuntu, I haven't figured out this one
[11:50] <tiffanie> janepop, no. the whole system locks up. It's a black screen that's unresponsive.
[11:50] <Meyvn> jr: np ;)
[11:50] <neo> it show me more information about my lan and pc
[11:50] <janeppo> hustlebird, I'm sure it fits as an iso, but not as a file
[11:50] <scottDkoDer> jrib: So add "Window List" to my panel would give me all open windows?
[11:50] <Guilty_as_Sin> hustlebird, you are trying to burn that as an iso and not a data disc right
[11:50] <gverdouw> tiffanie: if it is dying while trying to suspend/wake from suspend (or hibernate) you could try changing the behaviour in Power Management
[11:50] <jrib> scottDkoDer: yep, that should do it
[11:50] <scottDkoDer> jrib: ok I'
[11:50] <scottDkoDer> ll try it
[11:50] <tiffanie> gverdouw: I disable the lid-closing action in the power management but the system still locks up
[11:51] <Guilty_as_Sin> if your not sure and your in windows.. just go get IMG burn and use that to burn the image
[11:51] <janeppo> tiffanie, then I'm lost
[11:51] <hustlebird> i think so
[11:51] <gverdouw> tiffanie: I can't help you then sorry :)
[11:51] <tiffanie> janeppo: ok, thanks anyways.

[11:54] <avis> AlienfluX, you defined a username and password during the installation you should try to remember
[11:54] <jrib> AlienfluX: that shouldn't happen, did you verify the iso burned correctly?
[11:54] <alesan> how do I get updates from the commadn line?
[11:54] <hustlebird> what program do i need to use to burn the new ubuntu as an iso to a cd in unbuntu
[11:55] <PriceChild> hustlebird, right click the iso and choose burn to cd
[11:55] <Meyvn> hustlebird: Serpentine
[11:55] <jrib> alesan: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade
[11:55] <AlienfluX> hrmmms...
[11:55] <jrib> !apt > alesan (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:55] <PriceChild> hustlebird, no new software is needed
[11:55] <oninoshiko> neo: define "tell me info about my lan"
[11:55] <alesan> jrib, I was adviced not to use aptitude
[11:55] <AlienfluX> no i didn't... I just burned it and popped it it in...
[11:55] <Meta4ical> so if this fails and I want to revert back to the original xorg.conf i do ... sudo cp /media/META4ICAL/xorg.conf /etc/X11/ -r
[11:55] <avis> AlienfluX, the installation cd does not need a user/password to install
[11:55] <Meta4ical> ?
[11:55] <AlienfluX> that's weird... it asked..
[11:55] <Meyvn> PriceChild: is it possible to decrease the size of the icons on your desktop in GNOME? with all the customizability of ubuntu, I haven't figured out this one
[11:55] <neo> like online or offline or open ports
[11:55] <jrib> alesan: not sure why not... but go ahead and use apt-get if you prefer
[11:56] <hustlebird> thanx, ill try again
[11:56] <AlienfluX> i'll recheck it
[11:56] <Guilty_as_Sin> if you are new you should def. bookmark this:  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[11:56] <oninoshiko> neo: nmap will tell you open ports
[11:56] <Guilty_as_Sin> it has most of the common questions covered
[11:56] <PriceChild> Meyvn, right click, stretch icon
[11:57] <neo> and wat about sniffing tools?
[11:57] <jrib> AlienfluX: you should be presented with a menu at the beginning that lets you check that the iso burned correctly.  If it fails, check the md5sum of the .iso you download to see if the problem is with the download or the burn.  If it's the  burn, reburn at no more than 4x
[11:57] <Meta4ical> is this correct?  sudo cp -r /media/META4ICAL/xorg.conf /etc/X11/
[11:57] <AlienfluX> okay
[11:57] <kickinass> hey guys, is it normal for the ubuntu cd to hang after you exit when it ejects the cd and asks to press enter to continue?
[11:57] <imbecile> can anyone see this?
[11:57] <Guilty_as_Sin> neo have you tried wireshark yet?
[11:57] <neo> and i can't find this nmap
[11:57] <Meta4ical> imbecile: yep
[11:57] <unagi> anyone here use maya or shake?
[11:57] <jrib> imbecile: yes
[11:57] <avis> Meta4ical, i am not sure what the -r toggle does but otherwise looks right
[11:57] <aricz> neo, ethereal ..hunt..
[11:58] <Guilty_as_Sin> ethereal is wireshark
[11:58] <Meta4ical> it's supposed to recursively I believe? I need to overwrite the old one when it's copied
[11:58] <dxdt> ethreal is now called wireshark
[11:58] <MajorPayne> avis: The -r is for recursive.  When copying a directory.
[11:58] <jrib> neo: nmap is in the main repository.  How are you trying to install it?
[11:58] <avis> thank youu
[11:58] <Meyvn> PriceChild: omg, can't believe I could have overlooked that, if there a way to resize them all together?
[11:58] <Meta4ical> alright i'll go try the drivers now ;p
[11:58] <avis> Meta4ical, you shouldn't need the -r
[11:58] <Meta4ical> k
[11:58] <Meyvn> PriceChild: and thanks
[11:58] <neo> when can i find it?
[11:59] <neo> mean nmap??
[11:59] <oninoshiko> neo: in your preferred package manager
[11:59] <jrib> neo: do you know about APT?
[11:59] <neo> no
[11:59] <neo> :)
[11:59] <PriceChild> Meyvn, hilight them all and do them all at once perhaps? (i haven't checked it but i guess it "could" work)
[11:59] <Meta4ical> Last time I tried to install fglrx from the restricted drivers GUI I booted up and before reaching the GDM login it went to a black screen
[11:59] <neo> look this is the `st time i use linux
[11:59] <Meyvn> PriceChild: will try that
[12:00] <jrib> !installing > neo (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:00] <PriceChild> Meyvn, lemme know how it goes
[12:00] <Meyvn> PriceChild: sadly, that won't work, any idea where i can find a file to edit :)
[12:00] <AlienfluX> hrmmms... I'm going to download the ubuntu 7.0.4 dvd and see if that works
[12:00] <AlienfluX> the livecd isn't working
[12:00] <PriceChild> Meyvn, i'm guessing in gconf-editor, will have a look
[12:00] <jrib> neo: you should take a few minutes to read through the starter guide at help.ubuntu.com if you are new to ubuntu
[12:00] <AlienfluX> thanks!
