[12:01] <carthik> EADG_, ah!
[12:02] <vlt> There's no old inittab or "single" in the kernel cmdline ...
[12:02] <carthik> EADG_, is ls fails, use find.
[12:02] <EADG_> afief: Thanks, it worked well... misplaced a \ 30 minutes back... doh! :)

[12:04] <dani> Hi
[12:04] <afief> Jin, f-spot?
[12:04] <vlt> Any idea how to tell ubuntu to switch to runlevel 2 after booting?
[12:04] <dani> :P
[12:04] <dani> the gimp?
[12:04] <kkathman> vit place a 2 on the boot line right?
[12:05] <n2diy> vlt: sudo init 2
[12:05] <steven3423> vlt: /etc/inittab
[12:05] <n2diy> I lost my dialup connection, and when I went to re-connect, kppp told me the modem was busy.  I reset the modem, still busy, switched modems, still busy, disconnected the modem, and still busy. Reset the port with minicom, same thing. Did init 1 then init 5, logged out of root, and back in as me, and that fixed it. Ideas?
[12:06] <magnetron> n2diy: reboot?
[12:06] <dreamtime`> hi
[12:06] <n2diy> magnetron: why reboot, when init fixed it?
[12:07] <dreamtime`> hello there
[12:07] <riyo> Can someone please help me? I try to install this, http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GAIA?content=63246, and it the start menu looking thing, it doesnt even show. My default ubuntu is still there. And it looks nothing like it, all it does it make it look like this --> http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/5570/screenshotnn1.png
[12:07] <dreamtime`> hmmm i need some advices
[12:07] <vlt> steven3423: I thougt I don't need inittab anymore when using upstart?
[12:08] <dreamtime`> which one is better ? vmware, virtualpc or parallels ?
[12:08] <vlt> n2diy: `sudo init 2` results in runlevel "unknown"
[12:08] <magnetron> n2diy: i thought you asked for a solution to the problem
[12:09] <fr500> can i create an LVM volume with 2 250gb HDs, install everything and later add another pair of HDs?
[12:09] <zipper_> Trying to add a google repository, and to get rid of the GPG errors i do this: "wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add -". However, there must be a syntax error or something, since that produces an error. Any hints?
[12:09] <n2diy> magnetron: I did, and I also stated init 1 and then init 5 cured it. Rebooting would have reset my uptime.
[12:10] <speaker219> 'elloeth
[12:10] <zipper_> ah
[12:10] <magnetron> ofc, n2diy
[12:10] <zipper_> nevermind
[12:10] <philthy> vim or emacs for java?
[12:10] <dreamtime`> which one is better ? vmware, virtualpc or parallels ?  i really don't know ... actully i use vmware to run windows in a face of the cube (compiz)
[12:11] <dreamtime`> i mean virtualbox
[12:11] <dreamtime`> :x
[12:11] <imbecile_> what plugin do i use for totem to play vcd?? PLLEASEE and thank you
[12:11] <dreamtime`> virtualpc is from MS
[12:11] <thedash> hey, I have a few drives in an array atm, but they still show up under "Places" on the left-hand side of the screen when using nautilus, requesting to be mounted or something, how can I remove them from that list ?
[12:11] <dreamtime`> thedash, whats the fs ? _linux_raid_member_ ?
[12:12] <zyth> anyone have any idea why the 'contacts' conduit for evolution/palmpilot sync was there on the livecd but is missing on my install?
[12:12] <thedash> dreamtime` :: they're formatted with ext3, but does that matter ?
[12:12] <thedash> they're all currently mounted, just not by themselves
[12:12] <exodus> Hi guys, how do I get started setting up Win XP to run In Feisty Fawn?
[12:13] <Jin> exodus, u need vmware
[12:13] <imbecile> exodus:  get vmware player and make a virtual machine
[12:13] <reverseblade> exhuma, use virtualbox it is better and easier
[12:13] <reverseblade> exodus,  use virtualbox it is better and easier
[12:13] <dreamtime`> what the best ? parallels, virtualbox or VmWare ? :o
[12:14] <exodus> I have to compile Virtualbox?
[12:14] <dreamtime`> thedash, so its ok
[12:14] <reverseblade> VmWare is more technical, Virtualbox is more friendly
[12:14] <reverseblade> exodus, you don't. There is a ubuntu package at its web site
[12:14] <windowsRules> can i ask what Virtualbox is?
[12:14] <reverseblade> with that nick ? no !!!
[12:14] <h4L1m> sorry
[12:14] <reverseblade> ok now you can ask
[12:15] <reverseblade> hehe
[12:15] <h4L1m> im not a win user
[12:15] <fuffal0> which repository do i need for libapache2-mod-security
[12:15] <l05ty> hi..
[12:15] <KanRiNiN> Quick question.  In Nautilus, I go to network, and browse to my workgroup to view my samba of my server and it says "Folder Contents Can't be Dispalyed'  What's up?  I have samba installed.
[12:15] <imbecile> exodus:  make yr vm at www.easyvmx.com  its really easy
[12:15] <reverseblade> it's just a virtual machine , that allows you to run guest operating systems on your OS without disturbing it. Like virtual machine
[12:15] <l05ty> i need some help please installing
[12:15] <Joris_> I have a rather odd feisty problem. Machine with a core2quad cpu with a 2.6.20-16-generic kernel works very fast, altough with only 3.2 out of 8GB of ram. Installing the 2.6.20-16-server kernel halves disk IO speed (measurably) and subjectively decimates CPU performance... I'm at a complete loss
[12:15] <B52doc> I have a problem with my wireless network card, i installed new firmware and it worked but once I restarted it wont let me connect to any networks
[12:15] <h4L1m> reverseblade: is it for linux?
[12:15] <dreamtime`> well, actually if u try to red from a single disk which is part from a raid, u canno't mount it cuz its FS is linux_raid_member_ BUT u can force to mount with ext3 FS, but i don't recommend it cuz u can destroy ur data :x .. see... its easy
[12:16] <thedash> dreamtime` :: http://img518.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotpt4.png
[12:16] <reverseblade> h4L1m, it works on linux very well.
[12:16] <imbecile> now can someone tell me what pluging i need for totem for vcd playback? PLEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSEEEEEEE
[12:16] <h4L1m> ok thx
[12:16] <imbecile> plugin*

[05:23] (theblue/#ubuntu) nj786: ok, hit FWD.
[05:23] (asnf/#ubuntu) sorry how to write .iso files to SD card
[05:23] (etyrnal/#ubuntu) can anyone help with a minor nfs quandry that has to do with a permissions issue?
[05:23] (vocx/#ubuntu) CheeseGardener, EXACTLY.
[05:23] (nj786/#ubuntu) theblue: ok
[05:24] (Revel/#ubuntu) asnf: mount it and cp it?
[05:24] <gravemind> efram: nice! I'm glad it worked. No idea why it's assigning a different MAC each time though, seems like a pretty stupid thing to do
[05:24] <asnf> Revel burn to Sd card
[05:24] <vocx> CheeseGardener, from within Ubuntu you can also run the "grub shell" or "grub-install" to reinstall GRUB.
[05:24] <CheeseGardener> vocx, thanks, how do I run update-grub?  is it a command?  like Alt+F2?
[05:24] <theblue> nj786: what do you see now?
[05:24] <gravemind> dystopianray: still here?
[05:24] <kazzmir> theblue: ok that workwd. ill install ubuntu on it now
[05:24] <theblue> kazzmir: ok, best of luck.
[05:24] <kazzmir> thanks for the help
[05:25] <gravemind> dystopianray: I can ping both ways but the game still doesn't work. what was the next thing to try? nmap?
[05:25] <nj786> theblue: printer driver
[05:25] <weslleyalvessiqu> hello
[05:25] <theblue> nj786: wait, is this a USB printer?
[05:25] <vocx> CheeseGardener, if you are currently running Ubuntu type "man update-grub" to read the manual page. It is a command line utility, precisely.
[05:25] <theblue> nj786: or a parallel port printer?
[05:25] <dystopianray> gravemind: yeah try nmap
[05:25] <boardstar> ok, so i have a soundblaster audigy 2 EX soundcard with an infrared remote control .. it appears that linux has detected the device and 5"bay attachment properly .. however i cannot get my remote to function .. is there any way to see if ubuntu is getting the raw commands from the remote?
[05:29] (pawan/#ubuntu) i have an exiting windows xp installation can it be accessed using vmware server
[05:29] (asnf/#ubuntu) Revel are you there
[05:30] (dystopianray/#ubuntu) pawan: should be able to, but as to whether XP could survive it, well that is another matter
[05:30] (belem/#ubuntu) bonsoir
[05:30] (vocx/#ubuntu) pawan, NO. There are other virtualization software both free and commercial to do that.
[05:30] (nj786/#ubuntu) theblue: ok done
[05:30] <Revel> asnf: make the file, mount the cd card using the mount command, and move it.
[05:30] <belem> il y a des franais ici ?
[05:31] <osxdude|palmTX> will rescue mode delete anything or uninstall?

[05:31] <pawan> according to this article it is possible
[05:32] <pawan> http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65607
[05:32] <vocx> osxdude|palmTX, it boots in command line which may allow you to solve problems like hardware, screen detection.
[05:32] <theblue> belem: pourquoi?
[05:32] <Revel> asnf: to start from SD card you would have to have bios support.  and make it bootable
[05:32] <belem> what i do now !
[05:32] <Photocopy> This has totally missed me
[05:32] <Revel> asnf: you want to extract a iso to a sd card and make it bootable right?
[05:32] <asnf> I have a bios startup but I started my computer it said to me boot failed
[05:32] <asnf> yes
[05:32] <belem> bah j'ai test un floud d'une centaine de lignes  peut prs ...

[05:47] <Revel> belem: belem [n=raymond@86.66.170.65]  change that. change the username, proxy, whatever.  you pissed someone off i guess
[05:47] <theblue> wtf?
[05:48] <theblue> IdleOne: i believe belem tested a flood script or something similar.
[05:48] <belem> ok revel but after it is not okay
[05:48] <vbabiy> hey is how to move group order on pidgin 2.1.0
[05:48] <IdleOne> Revel: ban evading could get him klined. Ubuntu Ops have friends in high places
[05:48] <gravemind> change to a virtual terminal by pressing ctrl-alt-F1 and run this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and choose "advanced" when you have the opportunity - then put in your new values. You can get back to the gui at any time by pressing ctr-alt-F7
[05:49] <tritium> Revel: bad advice
[05:49] <gravemind> efram: see above
[05:49] <belem> yes do a flood theblue
[05:49] <theblue> belem: why did you do a flood?
[05:49] <belem> okay
[05:49] <IdleOne> !offtopic | belem
[05:49] <ubotu> belem: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:49] <gravemind> efram: you can choose the defaults for most of the questions it will ask
[05:49] <IdleOne> lets get back to support
[05:49] <corentin> Hi all
[05:50] <IdleOne> !hi | corentin
[05:50] <ubotu> corentin: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:50] <Revel> IdleOne: i've been auto banned in channels for stuff before.  if its a mistake meh... anyways off topic
[05:50] <theblue> and with that, i'm off.
[05:51] <Revel> im diggin this session terminal stuff.  anything else kewl about ubuntu im probably missing?
[05:51] <slavik`lap> support is for wusses, real man hand assemble and let the rest of the world run the code :P
[05:51] <belem> okay !!!
[05:51] <belem> are you ready!!!
[05:52] <belem> Some call me the cleaner, but I would choose the grave-digger, because I like to stir up the shit,
[05:52] <belem> I stuck my frolos before returning in this biz - go, then not need for potos,
[05:52] <belem> I you emmerde, I you emmerde, and I you emmerde,
[05:52] <belem> And to start, to scratch those which is saying make dance,
[05:52] <belem> Head with bell, or X without us could not becter, would slip you their language into in your slit,
[05:52] <belem> to make of the mix slap made in France, when you come guincher, your guiboles brings back rinsed,
[05:52] <belem> Eh, have you more nothing French, then Mister called to the one again changes skeud,
[05:52] <belem> And you do not come know the underground, are to you rather fashion, then action, I you emmerde and I you emmerde,
[05:52] <Revel> trolls should stick to usernet.
[05:52] <^tiNee^> anyone know how to make bitchx beep when someone says your nick?
[05:52] <Revel> >.<
[05:53] <slavik`lap> Revel: keep in mind that each interface has it's uses, CLI is awesome for linking tools together, GUI is awesome for looking at pictures and graphs ... and not allow you to link programs easily
[05:53] <SerZh> 
[05:53] <Revel> slavik`lap: I never seen a terminal work like this besides the BSD ones, and I never had that inside GUI that i recall
[05:53] <Revel> slavik`lap: its like a new toy xD
[05:54] <slavik`lap> Revel: how long you been running ubuntu? (and bsd has xterm and gnome-terminal and konsole, too)
[05:54] <Revel> about 4 hours.
[05:54] <Revel> maybe 5.
[05:54] <slavik`lap> Revel: learn about these: lsmod, lsusb, lspci :)
[05:54] <Revel> i've mostly been free/openbsd until now.
[05:54] <Revel> this is nice though.
[05:55] <efram> gravemind: dude.. thats way to much info I dont have.. lol..
[05:55] <slavik`lap> Revel: try this "exec true" :P
[05:55] <ltadee> HI
[05:55] <efram> gravemind: isnt it somehow easyer to make the other resolutions appear in the res selection menu?
[05:55] <slavik`lap> Revel: free/open bsd has gnome and KDE and has proper terminals for each
[05:55] <efram> gravemind: or is this the only way?
[05:55] <gravemind> efram: this is the only way. just press enter for most things until you get to monitor and you'll be fine
[05:55] <Revel> slavik`lap: but i could never drop to terminal with xfree/xorg running (that i knew how)
[05:55] <efram> gravemind: ok
[05:56] <Revel> besides using a gui terminal
[05:56] <RudyValencia> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu Feisty Server and having difficulty getting BIND 9 to start
[05:56] <slavik`lap> Revel: ctrl+alt+F1-F6
[05:56] <RudyValencia> I have my configuration files all setup but it's [fail] ing
[05:56] <Revel> slavik`lap: if they have that in bsd i missed the boat for a decade lol
[05:56] <TheViLliN> whats a good linux utility for backing up important system files???
[05:56] <slavik`lap> freebsd has the same thing
[05:57] <d4rkmonkey> any GUI for SCP in the repos?
[05:57] <slavik`lap> Revel: thing is if you run X in the first tty (F1), that's where X is... not on the 7th terminal like linux
[05:57] <slavik`lap> another thing that I haven't figured out is how to get a mouse in a virtual terminal (like freebsd does)
[05:57] <Revel> slavik`lap: i always used the print screen button on bsd.  gui was only a home thing really.  guess i didnt read well
[05:57] <slavik`lap> !scp
[05:57] <ubotu> SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[05:58] <RudyValencia> slavik`lap: the mouse thing is gpm
[05:58] <efram> gravemind: ok I did it.. now what? :P
[05:58] <RudyValencia> sudo apt-get install gpm
[05:58] <slavik`lap> ty
[05:58] <RudyValencia> np
[05:58] <Revel> brb
[05:58] <d4rkmonkey> nvm
[05:59] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: search synaptic, I know there was a utility to backstuffup and such, but if you need to backup your home directory, lmk, I can show you a single command that does it
[05:59] <gravemind> efram: you did 'advanced' and put in the new sync ranges?
[05:59] <efram> gravemind:  yupp
[05:59] <gravemind> efram: awesome! now save anything you're doing and press ctrl-alt-backspace. this restarts your display, and should hopefully fix your resolution
[05:59] <MilitantPotato> I'm trying to get several partitions to auto-mount, can someone review my fstab and see if I did this correctly? I added everything from /dev/hda7 on down.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33778/
[05:59] <efram> gravemind:  ok trying now =D
[06:00] <IdleOne> !info gnome-reset
[06:00] <ubotu> gnome-reset: backup and reset tool for GNOME. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.2+cvs2006.02.03-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 13 kB, installed size 200 kB
[06:00] <IdleOne> TheViLliN: ^^^^^^
[06:00] <TheViLliN> cool  thx,  i actually kinda looking for a utility so i can see mainly what files it backs up plus for when i start editing files etc etc :P
[06:00] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: you have a drive with 7partitions?
[06:00] <MilitantPotato> slavik, 6, one is an extended
[06:01] <efram> gravemind: lol i got way less res :P
[06:01] <MilitantPotato> it counts that as a partition in fdisk
[06:01] <gravemind> d'oh!
[06:01] <efram> grave I should try again :P
[06:01] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: if it's the home dir, then you can do something like: tar cpjf backup.tar.bz2 -C /home username
[06:01] <slavik`lap> where username is your username
[06:01] <TheViLliN> slavik'lap: what is that command though
[06:02] <gravemind> efram: can you paste your xorg.conf for me?
[06:02] <gravemind> efram: you can try it again too
[06:02] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: looks good to me
[06:02] <Yono> what software can I use to monitor system temperature on my laptop?
[06:02] <gravemind> efram: make sure you choose the right driver from the list
[06:02] <TheViLliN> nice  and tar it up in one file
[06:02] <MilitantPotato> slavik`lap: ty
[06:02] <TheViLliN> i like it..
[06:02] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: you understand the options?
[06:03] <alv4r0> hi
[06:03] <slavik`lap> Create, Preserver permissions, (J) Bzip2 compression, File (output), (C) cd before running
[06:03] <MilitantPotato> my backup command = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33780/
[06:03] <corentin> Bye all
[06:04] <alv4r0> how can i apply a *.patch file?
[06:04] <moyer> here is my issue, I installed a theme i liked.. but i dont like how it themed my gaim application.. is it possible to just remove the theming from gaim, but keep it on the rest of the desktop?
[06:04] <MilitantPotato> ok, restarting, wish me luck
[06:04] <moyer> good luck MilitantPotato
[06:04] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: no need
[06:04] <moyer> :)
[06:04] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: if that is the only thing you did then just do sudo mount -a
[06:04] <MilitantPotato> I always get nervious editing core bits of linux
[06:04] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: you only added the sdb stuff?
[06:04] <moyer> me too MilitantPotato  :)
[06:04] <MilitantPotato> yes slavik
[06:05] <MilitantPotato> will that not make them mount on boot?
[06:05] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: yes, but you can mount them now :)
[06:05] <Fezzler> In terminal, what would be the DOS equivalent of "MODE COM1: 300  where in Linux COM1 is ttyUSB0?
[06:05] <MilitantPotato> ah!
[06:05] <slavik`lap> sudo mount -a
[06:05] <alv4r0> i've a source, and a .patch file.. how can apply the patch?
[06:05] <Fezzler> Also what is the equivalent of DOS COPY FILE.TXT COM1:
[06:05] <slavik`lap> alv4r0:  man patch :)
[06:06] <slavik`lap> Fezzler: copy = cp
[06:06] <MilitantPotato> mount: mount point /media/sdb6 does not exist
[06:06] <MilitantPotato> Argh
[06:06] <stdin> alv4r0: something like "patch < file.patch"
[06:06] <MilitantPotato> sudo md /media/sdb* right?
[06:06] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: create the directories
[06:06] <alv4r0> ok....
[06:06] <slavik`lap> mkdir
[06:06] <MilitantPotato> mkdir, ty
[06:06] <bruenig> alv4r0, usually patch -p0 <path/to/patch/file but it depends on how the patch is formatted really
[06:06] <slavik`lap> Fezzler: why would you need to change mode on a tty?
[06:06] <UBUNTU01> http://antigop-k4.narod.ru/UBUNTU.HTML
[06:07] <Fezzler> I'm trying to exchange files from a my Ubuntu thru ttyUSB0 through a USB-to-Serial cable into and old Tandy Model 100 RS232 port
[06:07] <alv4r0> WORKS!
[06:07] <slavik`lap> Fezzler: and you can't usesudo?
[06:07] <alv4r0> thanks guys! :)
[06:08] <Fezzler> slav: How so?
[06:08] <slavik`lap> sudo command
[06:08] <Fezzler> Use sudo that is?
[06:08] <slavik`lap> man sudo :)
[06:09] <SerZh> offtopic: where i can find some actionscript channel? i'm tired looking all the list =/
[06:09] <slavik`lap> actionscript is flash, no?
[06:09] <slavik`lap> try #flash?
[06:09] <SerZh> yep
[06:09] <Fezzler> Does Ubuntu/Linux have a XMODEM program or easy terminal program that I can communicate in/out ttyUSB0?
[06:09] <slavik`lap> Fezzler: telnet?
[06:09] <SerZh> slavik`lap, missed )
[06:09] <xtknight> Fezzler, well there are minicom progs
[06:10] <SerZh>     ?)
[06:10] <xtknight> Fezzler, called no other than "minicom" :)
[06:10] <slavik`lap> wait, telnet can'tdo that
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> mount: special device /dev/disk/by-uuid/8E307149307138F3 does not exist
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> mount: /dev/hda7 already mounted or /media/Games1 busy
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> mount: according to mtab, /dev/hda7 is mounted on /media/disk
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> X(
[06:10] <slavik`lap> lol
[06:10] <xtknight> Fezzler, you can adjust the options in there to point to ttyUSB0 not tty0  in fact you must.
[06:10] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: you can umount it
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> i don't have any other refrences to /dev/hda7 in fstab
[06:10] <MilitantPotato> disk is unmounted?
[06:10] <Fezzler> slav: No telnet.  This is raw sending of files out the RS232 port and into the ttyUSB0 and visa versa
[06:10] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: it was automounted by something
[06:10] <Fezzler> Like the old ProComm
[06:11] <TheViLliN> slavik'lap  i think so,  create a new archive, preserve file permissions, dont copy zero byte files, use bzip2 archiving .  but what does the username part mean.  it is for remote mounts /systems?
[06:11] <slavik`lap> MilitantPotato: it says that hda7 is already mounted
[06:11] <MilitantPotato> yea what would auto mount it?
[06:11] <Fezzler> xtknight: recommend a minicom for Ubuntu?  Will they work with USB?  ttyUSB0?
[06:11] <TheViLliN> add to MAN it though  hehe
[06:11] <Revel> probably a dumb question, but how do you change cds with wine when it says the drive is in use and you can umount lol
[06:11] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: that's where you put your username, basically it tars up your entire home directory :)
[06:11] <UBUNTU01> Sorry for dead link.
[06:12] <slavik`lap> "wine eject"
[06:12] <Revel> thanx ;)

[06:13] <TheViLliN> cool,   thx slavik"lap
[06:13] <xtknight> Fezzler, yes
[06:13] <xtknight> Fezzler, they will work.  package "minicom"

[06:15] <slavik`lap> ochen
[06:15] <SerZh> vidimo da)
[06:15] <TheViLliN> hey slavik"lap   would it be possible to copy the /etc directory then grep any changes in a lower runtime if needed?
[06:15] <UBUNTU01> :D
[06:15] <MilitantPotato> slavik`lap: thanks again for the help.
[06:15] <Sensae> I have a Trendnet TEG-PCITXR gigabit ethernet adapter. I've installed it and it's running on r8169 drivers, however it only operates at 10base-T
[06:15] <Revel> slavik`lap: i hit ignore, seems to work ;)
[06:15] <RyanRyan52> I just installed Ubuntu and when I rebooted it said: "GRUB loading... Please wait" then it said "Error 18". What do I do?
[06:15] <efram> gravemind: its better now.. but its still not 1680x1050 it still stuck at 1280
[06:15] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: eh?
[06:16] <anabelle> hi, i just instaled a broadcom wireless card using bcm43xx-fwcutter and now it looks like its working, but the wireless interface shows up as eth1 should it be wlan0 for it to work properly or it doesn't matter?
[06:16] <slavik`lap> anabelle: don't matter
[06:16] <anabelle> thank you slavik
[06:16] <TheViLliN> ummm   let me rethink that one  eheh,  just need some more reading..
[06:16] <slavik`lap> anabelle: that eth1/wlan0 stuff is for you to somehow refer to the interface
[06:16] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: grep for what changes in lower level?
[06:16] <Sensae> Has anyone gotten a Trendnet gigabit PCI adapter working in ubuntu?
[06:17] <TheViLliN> any changes to any say"config files"
[06:17] <RudyValencia> Sensae: what model?
[06:18] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: so, you want versioning  control for them
[06:18] <Sensae> Rudy: TEG-PCITXR
[06:18] <anabelle> also when i turn off the wireless card switch it turns from bluo (on) to orange (off) properly but after about 10 Secs it reverts to blue even though i haven't turned it on
[06:18] <slavik`lap> anabelle: broadcom?
[06:18] <anabelle> yes :)
[06:18] <slavik`lap> also, are you using ndiswrapper?
[06:18] <anabelle> no, bcm43xx-fwcutter
[06:18] <slavik`lap> or the native and which chipset (if you know)
[06:19] <RudyValencia> Sensae: I think there may be a driver on the manufacturer's site
[06:19] <Sensae> Rudy: Only driver I could find is for kernel 2.2
[06:19] <anabelle> Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN
[06:19] <RudyValencia> oh
[06:19] <slavik`lap> oi vei
[06:19] <anabelle> using wl_apsta.o
[06:19] <slavik`lap> anabelle: could be something with the driver, check #bcm-users maybe someone there can answer your query
[06:20] <anabelle> thanks
[06:21] <TheViLliN> slavik"lap: well   not really,  at the moment.  i think i need to stay with one think at the momment.  ie// the backing up of the system files in one go
[06:21] <efram> gravemind: yah its very strange.. Iv tried like 5 times now.. best I can get is 1280x1024
[06:21] <slavik`lap> TheViLliN: MilitantPotato did pastebin his backup script which backs up /etc also
[06:22] <philthy> what is the netstat equivalent in linux?

[06:23] <TheViLliN> ah  oops  missed that,  got it now...  thx...
[06:23] <xtknight> i thought closed source was planned
[06:23] <gravemind> efram: hmm you may need to use a modeline generator
[06:23] <slavik`lap> xtknight: didn't creative send a card to alsa people?
[06:23] <gravemind> efram: but that is past my experience, sorry
[06:23] <xtknight> efram,  use "gtf"
[06:23] <xtknight> slavik`lap, not sure
[06:24] <efram> gravemind: well thanks a million for all your help bro =D
[06:24] <paotzu> anyone check out linuxmce?
[06:24] <efram> xtknight: umm just type that in the terminal?

[06:40] <boardstar> hey all .. im trying to get a file into my /usr/lib/ directory .. but i keep getting told i dont have permission to the directory .. what do i need to do?
[06:40] <boardstar> ive tried alt+f2 and running the program ive been trying to use to move.. didnt work
[06:41] <philthy> boardstar, did you write sudo?
[06:41] <astro76> boardstar, what program?
[06:41] <Rubin> Revel, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/92761
[06:41] <elfboy> can some one tell me where i can fing the sound config
[06:41] <boardstar> astro: using krusader
[06:41] <Rubin> boardstar, you need to be root maybe, using sudo to do it. but you should probably not be messing with that unless you know what your doing more. Why do you want to put files there?
[06:41] <rockets> How do I rename an ext3 partition?
[06:42] <Rubin> rockets, rename?
[06:42] <bobon1100> how do you mount a disk through ssh?
[06:42] <astro76> boardstar, run kdesu krusader, be careful and close it as soon as you are done
[06:42] <bluuwMe> rockets: be careful with that
[06:42] <Rubin> bobon1100, google sshfs
[06:42] <rockets> Rubin, yes change the label of the partition.
[06:42] <dWho> does anyone made a successful scanning using BenQ U/4300U and S2W 3300 in fiesty?
[06:42] <elfboy> whats he trying to do
[06:42] <rockets> bluuwMe, ?
[06:42] <n2diy> I lost my dialup connection, and when I went to re-connect, kppp told me the modem was busy.  I reset the modem, still busy, switched modems, still busy, disconnected the modem, and still busy. Reset the port with minicom, same thing. Did init 1 then init 5, logged out of root, and back in as me, and that fixed it. Ideas?
[06:42] <bobon1100> Rubin, ty :)
[06:42] <Rubin> rockets, the label can be changed with e2label
[06:43] <boardstar> philthy: ok .. just adding some plugins for xmms  into the uder/lib/xmms dir
[06:43] <pizzle> anyone know why ubuntu wont let me change resolution past 1024x768?
[06:43] <elfboy> can some one tell me where i can find the sound config
[06:43] <Rubin> n2diy, some daemon probably had the device in use

[06:44] <rockets> Rubin, your right i meant to do sdb1
[06:44] <Rubin> n2diy, sorry, no
[06:44] <rockets> it worked now
[06:44] <rockets> thanks
[06:44] <Rubin> rockets, but thats not the label that shows up in your gui.. its used for fstab and things.
[06:44] <astro76> !sound | elfboy
[06:44] <ubotu> elfboy: 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
[06:44] <riyonuk> Ok, a widget is like a scrollbar right?
[06:44] <numist> Amaranth: -R?
[06:44] <numist> your channel
[06:45] <rockets> Rubin, I wan't to change the label of the disk that shows up when its automounted in the gui
[06:45] <Amaranth> numist: what?
[06:45] <Rubin> riyonuk, a scrollbar is an example of a widget, yes
[06:45] <pizzle> hm
[06:45] <Rubin> rockets, i havnt figured that one out yet myself
[06:45] <numist> never mind
[06:45] <lns> oh no, riyonuk is still after his theme disaster? ;)
[06:45] <rockets> Rubin, grr thanks though
[06:45] <keelvarra_> does anyone know home to use aa3d?
[06:45] <Amaranth> numist: oh, didn't know that was set
[06:45] <elfboy> astro76: i want to know how they got sound to work
[06:45] <Amaranth> dunno how to see channel modes :)
[06:45] <numist> Amaranth: I set it, but this isn't really my channel
[06:45] <elfboy> astro76: cose i cant get sound to work on gebtoo box
[06:45] <Rubin> elfboy, most people have sound work without doing anything
[06:46] <numist> /mode #ubuntu should do it
[06:46] <keelvarra_> I downloaded aa3d because it sounded interesting, but can't figure out what to do with it
[06:46] <rockets> Rubin, it worked actually
[06:46] <numist> although, my client is being weird
[06:46] <Rubin> rockets, interesting!
[06:46] <rockets> Rubin, i changed the label to heavy and it automounted as heavy
[06:46] <Amaranth> now it works :)
[06:46] <Rubin> thats cool
[06:46] <riyonuk> Ok, and gtk themes widggets right?
[06:46] <riyonuk> Yes...
[06:46] <riyonuk> Its soo hard
[06:46] <riyonuk> Im never gonna give up
[06:46] <numist> yeah not here >_<
[06:46] <riyonuk> If there was such thing as something like remote desktop, I wish someone could conenct, and show me how to do it >_<
[06:46] <Rubin> riyonuk, there is VNC
[06:46] <elfboy> anyone
[06:46] <rockets> Heavy, to distinguish it from my "light" external drive.
[06:46] <rockets> Very scientific I know.
[06:46] <riyonuk> oh...I totally forgot about that, Rubin would you be willing to do it
[06:47] <lns> i'll do it.. $100/hr ;)
[06:47] <riyonuk> ?
[06:47] <riyonuk> or lns?
[06:47] <riyonuk> huh, woulda?
[06:47] <Rubin> no, sorry.
[06:47] <lns> that's what i charge everyone else
[06:47] <riyonuk> :o
[06:47] <riyonuk> >_>
[06:47] <lns> =p
[06:47] <lns> sorry
[06:47] <riyonuk> really? thats so mean
[06:47] <lns> gotta make money somehow!
[06:47] <riyonuk> :(
[06:47] <Rubin> no it isnt. your here to learn. if you want someone to do it for you buy support
[06:47] <ibanex> can anyone tell me how i could create a custom alternate install cd with LESS packages.. i can only find ways to add more
[06:47] <n2diy> lns, and how many customers do you have? Here?
[06:48] <elfboy> i need to see how ubuntu set sound on my computer cose i canget get sound to work on gentoo
[06:48] <lns> ibanex, do you think the netinstall cd would work for you?
[06:48] <Rubin> ibanex, theres a tool to help you build custom ubuntu live CDs. i saw it somewhere yesterday.. reddit maybe. try google? (sorry i dont remember the name)
[06:48] <lns> n2diy, on IRC? none.
[06:48] <Rubin> elfboy, /j #gentoo
[06:48] <n2diy> lns, roger that. :)
[06:48] <kevinh90> ibanex, if you dont like the ubuntu-desktop package list, why not use another distro
[06:49] <ibanex> lns: can i select packages from the netinstall?
[06:49] <epiclulz> anyone know why ubuntu wont let me change resolution past 1024x768?
[06:49] <^tiNee^> would installing psybnc on my box to mask my ip be a bad idea?
[06:49] <ibanex> Rubin: i found UCK and reconstructor, both would only allow me to add
[06:49] <lns> ibanex, well it's basically a minimalist install  - you download packages from the net during install
[06:49] <Rubin> epiclulz, generally, your xorg is not happy with the configuration it has for your video card and monitor
[06:50] <Rubin> ibanex, lns is prolly on the right track here
[06:50] <epiclulz> Rubin: how do i fix it
[06:50] <arturo> hi
[06:50] <ibanex> kevinh90: because i just want a smaller ubuntu, i like it, but i dont like what it installs at first
[06:50] <Rubin> ^tiNee^, i use irssi with the irssi-proxy module. its a bit more usefull in some ways
[06:50] <ibanex> lns: sweet, thanks, i will try
[06:50] <lns> no prob bob
[06:50] <Rubin> ibanex, i think the server install disk has less packages too
[06:51] <^tiNee^> Rubin, whats the difference with irssi and bitchx?
[06:51] <yeniklasorr> What is categories of Development of gnome menu ? Internet is "Categories=Network;Application;"
[06:51] <^tiNee^> they kinda look the same
[06:51] <kevinh90> ibanex, whatever you like, the server install might be a good idea
[06:51] <vexati0n> i have a (probably stupid) question... why, in my HP laptop, can i install a screen (directly from HP) that is labeled as "WSXGA," but the laptop is only capable of WXGA?
[06:51] <seanj> yay, I got Serious Sam 2 working on Ubuntu
[06:51] <arturo> why can't  innstall SUSE 10.2 ina mac mini ??
[06:51] <Flannel> ibanex: your other alternateive is alternate CD, and then do a GUI-less install
[06:51] <lns> Rubin, yes, it doesn't install Xorg but it does install some servers so be careful of what you run on it
[06:51] <Rubin> ^tiNee^, irssi is very different.. but mainly in this case, bitchx doesnt have a proxy plugin.
[06:51] <^tiNee^> oic
[06:51] <seanj> I'm using Irssi right now !
[06:51] <Rubin> ^tiNee^, http://www.garion.org/irssi/irssi-proxy.php
[06:51] <lns> arturo, why not ask in a suse chan?
[06:51] <ibanex> Flannel: i forget if i can select packages with the alternate
[06:51] <^tiNee^> Rubin, ty
[06:52] <nextse7en> Could someone recommend an easy to use WYSIWYG web page creator that I can download from the repositories?
[06:52] <arturo> oks thanx
[06:52] <ibanex> kevinh90: Rubin: i feel weird about the server install on a desktop, but if it has basic packages i might as well
[06:52] <lns> ibanex, i'd rather you do the netinstall
[06:52] <lns> but its your choice
[06:52] <astro76> nextse7en, bluefish, amaya
[06:53] <Rubin> ibanex, the only difference is in the default installed packages. dont feel weird about it.
[06:53] <ibanex> lns: ok
[06:53] <nextse7en> astro76: Thanks.
[06:53] <n2diy> I lost my dialup connection, and when I went to re-connect, kppp told me the modem was busy.

[06:53] <lns> as long as you have a fast inet connection
[06:53] <Rubin> netinstall is better though, i agree with lns
[06:53] <s88_> hi all
[06:53] <rockets> Whats a good tool for ripping discs to ISO format? mkisofs is no good cuz it doesnt preserve the boot record on the disc
[06:53] <Rubin> n2diy, do you know about the 'lsof' command?
[06:53] <epiclulz> anyone know why ubuntu wont let me change resolution past 1024x768 and how to fix it?
[06:53] <Rubin> rockets, k3b?
[06:54] <n2diy> Rubin: no I don't, let me play with it.
[06:54] <astro76> epiclulz, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:54] <pawan_> E: vmware-server: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[06:54] <jmdc> I'm trying to create an ad-hoc wireless network in feisty without network-manager. Pointers to documentation would be appreciated.
[06:54] <Rubin> n2diy, it should tell you what has the file open, if thats the problem
[06:54] <jmdc> specifically, about initial cell creation
[06:55] <lns> jmdc, try googling iwconfig
[06:55] <micman> hello ubuntoers!
[06:55] <riyonuk> I tried learning, I read I tinkered, nothing happened
[06:55] <riyonuk> lns saw what happen
[06:55] <riyonuk> it was horrible :o
[06:55] <riyonuk> So how does one skin the actual toolbar?
[06:55] <riyonuk> All they talk about is skinning widgets
[06:55] <riyonuk> using GTK::Widgets
[06:55] <n2diy> Rubin: That gives me a ton of stuff, I'll have to sort through it, thanks.
[06:55] <rockets> Rubin, yeah i cant figure that out . . .
[06:55] <riyonuk> lns, Im gonna ccry, this is so difficult, ugh
[06:55] <lns> riyonuk, you tried diff users?
[06:55] <arturo> what is last version of wine i can't run fifa 2007
[06:55] <Rubin> riyonuk, i think you need to build a gtk theme
[06:56] <pawan> E: vmware-server: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[06:56] <Rubin> riyonuk, no idea how to do that though. try looking on the gnome website?
[06:56] <astro76> arturo, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[06:56] <Rubin> pawalls, thats bad. what did you do to cause it? :)
[06:56] <Rubin> er, pawan, sorry pawalls
[06:56] <s88_> I wnat to configure NIS , does anyone have any good reference?
[06:57] <s88_> I mean, some documents...
[06:57] <Rubin> pawan: maybe that vmware package is not compatable with your version of ubuntu?
[06:57] <riyonuk> OMG! Ok, I go to System > Prefrences > Theme, click on Installa new theme, and browse to a .tar.gz file, I choose yet to use it, and it looks like windows. What am I doing wrong? Is gnome corrupted? Am I missing an engine?
[06:57] <pawan> then
[06:57] <nextse7en> I was looking more for something with the functionality of frontpage, but open source, any recommendations?
[06:58] <Flannel> !html | nextse7en
[06:58] <ubotu> nextse7en: html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build webpages. Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem, and Nvu. For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com
[06:58] <dsterry_> nextse7en, i like quanta myself...coming from a dreamweaver past
[06:58] <TheCreationist> I'm looking for a Linux alternative to Noteworthy or Finale.  Anyone have ideas?
[06:58] <jmdc> lns, Thanks, I'm reading the man page, but the basic 'iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc' isn't working out for me.
[06:58] <Rubin> nextse7en, none of those are like frontpage. but if your willing to be open minded about the process, it can work for you
[06:58] <nextse7en> dsterry_: Thanks, I'll look into it.
[06:59] <lns> jmdc, just keep reading and troubleshooting
[06:59] <nextse7en> Rubin: I certainly am, thanks for the advice.
[06:59] <lns> it takes some time to get past all the weirdnesses of wifi on linux ;)
[06:59] <Rubin> i have seen from general forum reading that various wifi cards respond to various tools, so its largely trial and error still :/
[06:59] <lns> mostly due to closed-source wifi drivers
[07:00] <jmdc> lns yeah I really can't wait for gutsy and kernel 2.6.22 and better broadcom drivers.
[07:00] <lns> me too.
[07:00] <s88_> Does anyone have successful configure the NIS on the ubuntu?
[07:00] <Lustblader> does any1 know of a music player for linux that doesn't have a library?
[07:00] <Lustblader> something like foobar in windows
[07:00] <lns> I do like how hardware manufacturers are starting to respond to linux these days though
[07:00] <Rubin> Lustblader, i reccomend audacious
[07:01] <pawan> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-server_1.0.3-1_i386.deb: subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
[07:01] <lns> Lustblader, xmms or bmp
[07:01] <Lustblader> is it playlist based?
[07:01] <Frogzoo> Lustblader: audacious?
[07:01] <Rubin> pawalls, you may need to ask a vmware expert.. its not really our area since vmware is a closed source program
[07:01] <Lustblader> i got waay too much music for a audio player to handle
[07:01] <Rubin> ugh. pwan**. *sigh*
[07:02] <Rubin> Lustblader, im in the same boat. i use ampache.. so yeah. you will like it. its like xmms only works :)  (looks like winamp)
[07:02] <Lustblader> Rubin: ever seen foobar in windows??
[07:02] <Rubin> yeah
[07:03] <Lustblader> damn awesome.. tabbed playlists are the best things ever
[07:03] <lns> wow i never saw audacious before!
[07:03] <Rubin> lns: it used to be called beep-media-player
[07:03] <lns> oh...i've been using bmp for a while
[07:03] <Lustblader> i'm installing bmpx now
[07:03] <lns> but its kinda buggy
[07:03] <lns> this looks nice
[07:03] <Rubin> yeah
[07:04] <riotkittie> awesome!! i did it!! i diiiiiiiiid it.
[07:05] <kazzmir> aplay -l says card0 is a modem... should i change something in bios?
[07:05] <n2diy> riotkittie: I missed the play, what did you do?
[07:06] <Rubin> kazzmir, if you dont get anywhere here you could try #alsa they are nice
[07:06] <niuq> i need help installing wine
[07:07] <yeniklasorr> I'm trying to make a bin sh. This must execute 2 command. "cd /opt/ebyn/" and "exec sh bdp.sh" How can I do this ?
[07:07] <Rubin> niuq, should be in synaptic
[07:07] <riotkittie> n2diy: finally managed to get online under feisty with my wireless usb adapter
[07:07] <yeniklasorr> Sorry I'm trying to make a bin sh. This must execute 2 command. "cd /opt/ebyn/" and "sh bdp.sh" How can I do this ?
[07:07] <niuq> Rubin: ohh  ok, i should search there first
[07:07] <riotkittie> sucks because i'm limited to WEP but i guess i can live with that. better than nothing :D
[07:07] <Lustblader> hey!! is there anyway to remove these unneccesary shoutcast/icecast buttons from bmpx
[07:07] <Rubin> yeniklasorr,  http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html
[07:07] <n2diy> riotkittie: Cool, document how you did it, so you don't forget! :)
[07:07] <yeniklasorr> ok
[07:08] <Lustblader> ?
[07:08] <Lustblader> !hello
[07:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:09] <riotkittie> n2diy: ehhh. the info's out there. just very jumbled.
[07:09] <etyrnal> how do i launch an app at system startup time as a persistent process that will run as a specified user ??
[07:09] <riotkittie> or maybe my searches just left something to be desired. <shrug>
[07:09] <etyrnal> thankyou
[07:09] <Lustblader> what are u looking for riotkittie
[07:09] <Rubin> etyrnal, cheap way is to run it from /etc/rc.local .. you can put 'su -u username' in front of the command to run under another user. better way is to make an init script..
[07:09] <mzuverink> anyone have any luck upgrading to gusty using update-manager -d?  Mine says that it cannot find feisty proposed, its been saying that for 3 days
[07:09] <riotkittie> Lustblader: nothing.
[07:10] <Flannel> mzuverink: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[07:10] <LDS_Trooper> Is there a way to change ownership of multiple files?
[07:10] <Rubin> LDS_Trooper, chown -R makes it recurse
[07:10] <Frogzoo> LDS_Trooper: man chown
[07:10] <n2diy> riotkittie: Roger that, but you just went through it, so you could update the info, add it to a wiki, or better yet, have it available for yourself, for the next time you have to do it. And you know there will be a next time! :)
[07:11] <LDS_Trooper> Rubin, basically, I made a user group for my wife. When I copied her files over they still have me as owner
[07:11] <LDS_Trooper> so I need to change that
[07:12] <Rubin> LDS_Trooper, yeah. so if they are all in one folder, something like sudo chown -R herusername.hergroup /path/to/herdirectory
[07:12] <carthik> herusername:hergroup LDS_Trooper
[07:12] <carthik> : instead of .
[07:12] <Rubin> eh?
[07:12] <LDS_Trooper> ok thanks
[07:12] <LDS_Trooper> let me try that
[07:12] <epiclulz> hm
[07:13] <LDS_Trooper> tho I'm not certain of the path
[07:13] <Rubin> LDS_Trooper, where did you put them? :)
[07:13] <LDS_Trooper> I access it thru sudo nautilus /home
[07:13] <epiclulz> is there an easy way to install compiz fusion?
[07:13] <riotkittie> epiclulz: errr... elaborate on 'easy'?
[07:14] <n2diy> Hmm indeed, I don't think I'd want my wife to have a users group! :)
[07:14] <Rubin> LDS_Trooper, well, nautilus paths are the same as filesystem paths...
[07:14] <travis> can anyone help me with my wireless card
[07:14] <epiclulz> riotkittie: just point and click?
[07:14] <carthik> LDS_Trooper, use cd to change to the directory above the directory you want to change permissions on, and then do chown -R hergroup:hername dirname
[07:14] <LDS_Trooper> ok let's see how it goes.. *crosses fingers
[07:14] <riotkittie> epiclulz: not that i know of.
[07:14] <Revel> This is getting REALLY annoying.
[07:14] <philthy> how can i make it so just the background of gaim windows are transparent, not the font?
[07:14] <philthy> (adium style)
[07:14] <riotkittie> but my experience with compiz-fusion to date has been 'curse like a sailor, do a fresh install'
[07:14] <Revel> does anyone know how to make DHCP with custom DNS stick?  it wipes dns ever reboot
[07:15] <Rubin> Revel, theres lots of hits in google for solving that
[07:15] <Revel> Rubin: give me a search clue please, im drowning in bad hits.
[07:15] <riotkittie> iCoogle is now known as ThoseNickChangesGrowAnnoying
[07:15] <Rubin> revel: ubuntu dhcp resolv.conf ?
[07:15] <carthik> Revel, read http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/02/local-dns-cache-for-faster-browsing/
[07:15] <Revel> resolve.cong gets over written
[07:16] <Revel> unless im missing a step
[07:16] <Avielu1> /ghost avielus 132243354123184d
[07:16] <travis> built in wireless?
[07:16] <carthik> Revel, some of that helps with the resolv.conf inssue
[07:16] <Avielu1> you joking?
[07:16] <Avielu1> /ghost avielus
[07:16] <Revel> checkin link Carthik thanx
[07:16] <Avielu1> hmm
[07:16] <carthik> Avielu1, /msg nicserv ghost ....
[07:16] <Avielu1> Doh!
[07:16] <carthik> nickserv, I mean
[07:16] <Avielu1> i'm not talking to nickserv T_T
[07:17] <philthy> how can i make it so just the background of gaim windows are transparent, not the font? (adium style)
[07:17] <Avielu1> used to using other IRC clients
[07:17] <faileas> Avielu1: also... you probably had a space in front?
[07:17] <riotkittie> travis: what kind of card? chipset, rather. i'm not a wireless expert with any means...  but if its something i've come across...
[07:17] <Avielu1> nope, i tried it again
[07:17] <Avielu1> /ghost.
[07:17] <carthik> philthy, please dont repeat the question too often.
[07:17] <philthy> carthik, okay. haha, that's actually a pet peeve of mine also. i'm a hypocrite
[07:17] <Avielus> right. that never happened.
[07:18] <travis> umm its a in a dell
[07:18] <travis> inspiron
[07:18] <travis> i think broadcom
[07:18] <dystopianray> travis: run lspci and see what wifi card it has
[07:18] <faileas> travis: is the laptop centerno based? (sp)?
[07:18] <travis> centrino yes
[07:18] <dystopianray> centrino
[07:18] <Revel> carthik: this is local cache?  isnt their a "i want this stop changing it" setting?
[07:18] <travis> lol
[07:18] <dystopianray> travis: centrino should have intel wireless
[07:18] <faileas> then its a intel
[07:19] <Avielus> centrino* and I might have the sameish laptop
[07:19] <Avielus> I have intel wireless
[07:19] <faileas> thats why i asked ;)
[07:19] <riotkittie> oooh fios.
[07:19] <dystopianray> travis: check lspci and see exactly what card it is
[07:19] <faileas> ANY centrino has some flavour of intel
[07:19] <travis> 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
[07:19] <travis> 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 [AirForce 54g]  802.11a/b/g PCI Express Transceiver (rev 02)
[07:19] <travis> pci
[07:19] <dystopianray> it's broadcom
[07:19] <faileas> o0
[07:19] <travis> note : im running ubuntu ultimate
[07:20] <faileas> thats wierd
[07:20] <n2diy> ultimate?
[07:20] <Avielus> ubuntu... ultimate?
[07:20] <riotkittie> broadcom ...  does that require ndiswrapper?
[07:20] <travis> yes
[07:20] <lns> lol
[07:20] <seanj> what's Ubuntu ultimate?
[07:20] <travis> i was told that a few days ago
[07:20] <riotkittie> wth is ubunt...
[07:20] <carthik> Revel, if you read that you will find that you can ask resolv.conf to not be updated everytime the lease is
[07:20] <dystopianray> is ubuntu ultimate unsupported?
[07:20] <lns> It's UbuntuVista
[07:20] <n2diy> ! ultimate
[07:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ultimate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:20] <astro76> ubuntu ultimate = ubuntu with a bunch of crap installed and either automatix or envy
[07:20] <Revel> carthik: k my bad >.<
[07:20] <LDS_Trooper> Rubin, carthik. Thanks guys! Worked great
[07:20] <dystopianray> ubuntu ultimate is a third party distro
[07:20] <carthik> philthy, if you are using compiz.compiz fusion, there is a plugin that does that... opacify or some such
[07:20] <travis> lol hey thz guys
[07:20] <riotkittie> ubuntu vista? that's like ice cream and pork chops. </offtopic>
[07:20] <travis> ttyl
[07:21] <seanj> http://ubuntusoftware.info/ultimate/
[07:21] <philthy> carthik, I'm using beryl. They have transparency, but it's for the whole window, including font.
[07:21] <lns> lol riotkittie
[07:21] <seanj> lol
[07:21] <lns> i heard ubuntu ultimate might make legal hassles for canoncial
[07:22] <carthik> philthy, here's where I read of it awhile ago:http://compiz.blogspot.com/2006/07/more-fun-with-shaders-copacity.html
[07:22] <riotkittie> if its a third party, how can they make legal hassles for anybody but themselves?
[07:22] <dystopianray> it's not a canonical product
[07:22] <carthik> might give you a starting point, philthy
[07:22] <faileas> lns: in what sense? canonoical can't be liable for something they didn't create
[07:22] <TheCreationist> Ubuntu Ultimate is not an official Ubuntu distro
[07:22] <niuq> for installing wine
[07:22] <n2diy> riotkittie: Ubuntu is trademarked?
[07:22] <savetheWorld> yes
[07:22] <niuq> i just should sudo apt-get install wine
[07:22] <niuq> ?
[07:22] <dystopianray> i don't think we're supposed to give ubuntu ultimate help in here
[07:22] <dystopianray> only official ubuntu
[07:22] <savetheWorld> shuttleworth foundation
[07:22] <lns> faileas, not sure..saw it on sd ;)
[07:22] <niuq> nothing else, some adds?
[07:22] <Avielus> completely random question: Why doesn't backspace go back for me in firefox? =P
[07:23] <faileas> sd is not a reliable news source ;)
[07:23] <savetheWorld> Avielus: use ALT-"left Arrow"
[07:23] <Avielus> aww
[07:23] <Avielus> do I have to
[07:23] <philthy> carthik, thanks.
[07:23] <savetheWorld> Avielus: or ALT-B
[07:23] <Avielus> well, alt B just doesn't work
[07:23] <Avielus> can I change the keybindings anywhere?
[07:23] <riotkittie> i wish my extra mouse keys worked under ubuntu. not that i ever use them. but thats besides the point.
[07:23] <carthik> Avielus, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/12/21/fix-firefox-backspace-to-take-you-to-the-previous-page/ ( I love it when the answer to a question is something I wrote :) )
[07:24] <Avielus> Lol, must feel good carthik
[07:24] <n2diy> Avielus: menu>system>prefrences>keyboard
[07:24] <carthik> It does :) These are things that have bugged me too, no end.
[07:24] <niuq> i only should use sudo apt-get install wine, for installing wine?, aren't there some modules to add?
[07:24] <Revel> carthik: this is really the only/best way to do this?  ....  seems so....  round about.
[07:25] <carthik> well, about:config is about direct as it gets, and easy, I might add.
[07:25] <Avielus> that worked
[07:25] <carthik> yay!
[07:25] <Avielus> easily
[07:25] <Avielus> =P
[07:26] <riotkittie> are pkgs installed via apt-get logged in Synaptic's history, or no?
[07:26] <yeniklasorr> Rubin : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33782/
[07:26] <Revel> .
[07:26] <carthik> riotkittie, they must be, yes.
[07:26] <riotkittie> carthik: thanks :D
[07:26] <carthik> riotkittie, why not try it out with a small experiment?
[07:26] <Infected_PC> i have a question about google desktop
[07:26] <carthik> Infected_PC, #google-desktop :P
[07:26] <Infected_PC> thanks ;)
[07:26] <Avielus> you have to be joking
[07:26] <riotkittie> carthik: because i so hate loading synaptic. and plus, that'd make too much sense
[07:26] <dgeorge> hey guys
[07:26] <Avielus> there can't be a #google-desktop O_o
[07:26] <carthik> just kidding, Infected_PC
[07:27] <dgeorge> how do i get the flash player installed
[07:27] <dgeorge> for firefox
[07:27] <dystopianray> dgeorge: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:27] <Infected_PC> there isn't a google desktop
[07:27] <Avielus> rofl, you had me there carthik
[07:27] <Infected_PC> but anyway i got it installed and running on feisty, but i wasn't sure if it had a side bar integrated into it like windows does
[07:27] <riotkittie> carthik: ok, just tried it... and apparently not
[07:27] <Rubin> yeniklasorr, thats a bit odd but should work :)
[07:27] <n2diy> I lost my dialup connection, and when I went to re-connect, kppp told me the modem was busy.  I reset the modem, still busy, switched modems, still busy, disconnected the modem, and still busy. Reset the port with minicom, same thing. Did init 1 then init 5, logged out of root, and back in as me, and that fixed it. Ideas?
[07:28] <carthik> dgeorge, $sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla
[07:28] <carthik> dgeorge make sure you have universe and multiverse enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:28] <dgeorge> i get this
[07:28] <dgeorge> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[07:28] <dgeorge> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:28] <Rubin> dgeorge, use sudo
[07:28] <carthik> dgeorge, close Synaptic
[07:29] <dgeorge> i did that too still not working
[07:29] <dystopianray> carthik: the package you suggested is only for edgy
[07:29] <carthik> dgeorge only one of apt, aptitude, dpkg, synaptic can run at a time...
[07:29] <yeniklasorr> Rubin: says "bash: /usr/bin/ebyn: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
[07:29] <riotkittie> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:29] <Revel> ty everyone that lent me a hand tonight.  i gtg to bed so i dont miss work.
[07:29] <carthik> dystopianray, oh, that's good to know.
[07:29] <dgeorge> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[07:29] <dgeorge> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:29] <Revel> thanks again, nn
[07:29] <Rubin> yeniklasorr, did you use windows to edit that?
[07:29] <carthik> good night Revel
[07:29] <n2diy> Revel-sleep: 73
[07:29] <CFSworks> I have 2 accounts on my box. Both accounts are in the same group, and both have sudoers access, yet the second cannot sudo into root. Why is this?
[07:29] <dgeorge> ok i get this
[07:30] <dgeorge> Reading package lists... Done
[07:30] <dgeorge> Building dependency tree... Done
[07:30] <dgeorge> flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[07:30] <dgeorge> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
[07:30] <Infected_PC> i found my answer ;) it's no google desktop for linux does not support sidebar or gadgets
[07:30] <dystopianray> yeniklasorr: shell scripts can't be windows format text files
[07:30] <yeniklasorr> Rubin : No linux
[07:30] <carthik> dgeorge, you have more than one package manager frontend running, and please stop pasting multiple lines here :)
[07:30] <dystopianray> dgeorge: you already have flash
[07:30] <Rubin> yeniklasorr, what editor?
[07:30] <astro76> CFSworks, add them to the admin group for sudo access
[07:30] <yeniklasorr> kate
[07:30] <n2diy> ! enter | dgeorge
[07:30] <CFSworks> They're in the same groups, astro76.
[07:30] <ubotu> dgeorge: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:30] <carthik> dgeorge, maybe it is flash 9 that you dont have
[07:30] <dgeorge> ok but when i go to a website still asks me to download it
[07:30] <dgeorge> k
[07:30] <yeniklasorr> Rubin : kate
[07:30] <dystopianray> yeniklasorr: change the end of line encoding to UNIX
[07:30] <dgeorge> yes flash 9
[07:30] <riotkittie> dgeorge: then you should have flash installed.
[07:30] <Rubin> yeniklasorr, its saved somehow as a DOS file. im not sure why i dont use kate. but thats why.
[07:30] <Avielus> Download it when it asks you to, dgeorge
[07:30] <dgeorge> how do i getthat
[07:30] <riotkittie> nm
[07:30] <dystopianray> dgeorge: you already have it
[07:30] <Avielus> i found that easiest
[07:31] <dgeorge> how do i make firefox see it
[07:31] <yeniklasorr> ok
[07:31] <dystopianray> dgeorge: the website is most likely wrong
[07:31] <dystopianray> dgeorge: does youtube work?
[07:31] <dystopianray> dgeorge: are you using feisty?
[07:31] <dgeorge> checking youtube
[07:31] <dgeorge> no
[07:31] <dystopianray> dgeorge: edgy?
[07:32] <dgeorge> no
[07:32] <dystopianray> dgeorge: what are you running?
[07:32] <dgeorge> ok when i go to you tube it quits my browser
[07:32] <dgeorge> regular ubuntu
[07:33] <Rubin> heh
[07:33] <CFSworks> So what are all the factors that sudo needs to work right?
[07:33] <dystopianray> dgeorge: which version?
[07:33] <dgeorge> how do oi check
[07:33] <niuq> how can i install a program .msi using wine?
[07:33] <niuq> i had problem using the gui
[07:33] <dgeorge> Gnome
[07:33] <dystopianray> niuq: msiexec
[07:33] <Rubin> CFSworks, its configured by /etc/sudoers .. by default in ubuntu everyone in the 'admin' group can sudo
[07:33] <niuq> dystopianray: thx
[07:33] <CFSworks> This new account is both in the 'admin' group and explicitly added to sudoers
[07:33] <dystopianray> dgeorge: cat /etc/lsb-release
[07:34] <Rubin> CFSworks, what happens?
[07:34] <Infected_PC> i think picasa is a sweet program for photos
[07:34] <CFSworks> I get the message "Sorry, try again." when the password is entered.
[07:34] <CFSworks> However it works fine on the first account.
[07:34] <dgeorge> 6.06 lts
[07:34] <Rubin> CFSworks, your entering that users password, not the root password right?
[07:34] <dystopianray> CFSworks: are you using the correct password?
[07:34] <CFSworks> Both are going into the root account, and I'm using the exact same password for sudo on both user accounts.
[07:34] <dystopianray> dgeorge: you need to get flash 9 from dapper-backports
[07:35] <astro76> CFSworks, they don't need to be added to /etc/sudoers at all, just admin group... But, did you use visudo to edit sudoers??
[07:35] <dystopianray> dgeorge: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper-backports/web/flashplugin-nonfree
[07:35] <Rubin> CFSworks, sudo is asking for the account password not root's password
[07:35] <n2diy> dgeorge: that is Dapper, good choice.
[07:35] <CFSworks> astro76, yes I did.
[07:36] <dgeorge> which one on this site do idownlaod
[07:36] <dgeorge> its installing now
[07:37] <rbraley> hello, can anyone tell me if gutsy's livecd installer is going to support linux software raid ?
[07:37] <dgeorge> still not working
[07:38] <astro76> rbraley, I think alternate is still needed, but ask in #ubuntu+1
[07:38] <pawan> hello
[07:38] <pHill> bloody cat nip
[07:38] <dystopianray> rbraley: you'll probably still need alternate
[07:38] <endlessurf> wondering what os program you have that is useful and entertaining....anyone
[07:38] <dystopianray> endlessurf: nethack
[07:38] <lns> endlessurf, wireshark
[07:39] <phenom> metaspl***
[07:39] <CFSworks> Would someone mind telling me wtf this message means?
[07:39] <CFSworks> [   45.483106]  eth0: Transmit timeout, status 0d 0000 c07f media 10.
[07:39] <Rubin> endlessurf, vim :)
[07:39] <ddazedd> can someone help me with compiz fusion?
[07:39] <Rubin> CFSworks, a bug in your ethernet driver
[07:39] <CFSworks> Aha! I knew it.
[07:39] <Rubin> might not matter..
[07:40] <CFSworks> Well, except for the fact that absolutely no messages are getting through the dang thing. -.-
[07:40] <Rubin> ahh :)
[07:40] <dgeorge> what else do i need to do
[07:40] <CFSworks> lol Thanks Rubin.
[07:40] <dystopianray> CFSworks: try a different cable
[07:40] <endlessurf> thanks
[07:40] <CFSworks> Ay. That's what my friend was afraid you'd say, dystopianray. :\
[07:41] <CowzRule>  3:-0 Moooo
[07:41] <dystopianray> CFSworks: what is wrong with trying another cable?
[07:41] <junior_> tem brasileiro aqui
[07:41] <CFSworks> Well, it's routed through the walls of the building.
[07:41] <Avielus> Ouch.
[07:41] <CFSworks> And he'll have to recrimp both ends.
[07:41] <socialist> anyone using splashy? and if so, does this sound familiar: when I boot up with splashy enabled (not in initrd), I'm getting 2 little visual artifacts at the top of the screen after the desktop shows up
[07:41] <rbraley> I am trying to install feisty for my dad and he wants software raid but manually mount points is scary because I am afraid that grub will not be able to find the linux kernel without a raid driver. Does anyone have raid working for themselves that would like to share?
[07:41] <dsterry_> CFS can't you test it with a laptop or some other device?
[07:42] <dystopianray> CFSworks: well then try another nic with the cable
[07:42] <dgeorge> can u use skype with linux
[07:42] <n2diy> ! es | junior_
[07:42] <ubotu> junior_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[07:42] <dsterry_> dgeorge, yes, but last i checked no video chat
[07:42] <dgeorge> how do i install it
[07:42] <dystopianray> !skype
[07:42] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[07:42] <CFSworks> He says it worked on Windoze.
[07:42] <pawan> how to use webcam in pidgin
[07:42] <CFSworks> That's strange.
[07:43] <dystopianray> CFSworks: what nic is it?
[07:43] <CowzRule> !foo
[07:43] <ubotu> bar
[07:43] <CFSworks> It's a RealTek RTL8139. Same kind of nic I run in my research machine in my basement.
[07:43] <Rubin> CFSworks, its not exactly relevent because those do work for a lot of people, but you should just be aware that realtek makes really crap cards...
[07:44] <CowzRule> !coffee
[07:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about coffee - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:44] <Rubin> CFSworks, might be worth the $5 to replace it
[07:44] <lns> CFSworks, I agree with Rubin - it sounds like a hw problem to me
[07:44] <lns> realtek 8139 has been good for a while in linux now
[07:44] <CFSworks> I knew it was a hw problem, just not sure exactly what.
[07:44] <lns> CFSworks, basic troubleshooting will tell you
[07:45] <lns> replace each part until it works
[07:45] <Rubin> the realtek cards use CPU to do a lot of their work, so they are slow and degrade your performance :/
[07:45] <CFSworks> What strikes me the oddest is that card works perfectly in my research 'nix box, and he says it worked perfectly in Windoze.
[07:45] <n2diy> CFSworks:  Rubin, lns, there are two drivers floating around for that card, try the .too driver.
[07:45] <nikolai> Has anyone tested Ktorrent in Gnome?
[07:45] <CFSworks> 8139too?
[07:45] <CFSworks> That's the one I run in my basement. ;) thanks
[07:45] <n2diy> 8139.too
[07:46] <RudyValencia> hm, are Linksys cards good?
[07:46] <CFSworks> 8139.too as opposed to 8139too ?
[07:46] <lokadin> how do i force remove a package?
[07:46] <CFSworks> And I agree with Intel. Can't go wrong with Intel. :)
[07:46] <RudyValencia> I have a few LNE100TX's
[07:46] <dystopianray> RudyValencia: it's probably just a rebranded card from another vendor
[07:46] <CFSworks> Except with Intel graphics. >:C
[07:46] <Rubin> lokadin, erm. why do you need to force it?
[07:46] <RudyValencia> are they pretty decent?
[07:47] <Avielus> >:( don't get me started on intel graphics
[07:47] <nikolai> Hmmm... Has anyone gotten the new intel wireless cards on the Inspiron 1520 laptops working?
[07:47] <dystopianray> intel graphics are great
[07:47] <lns> The only thing i really like about rt8139s is that they almost always have pxe roms
[07:47] <Avielus> and that smiley did not work
[07:47] <philthy> to find out where something puts its files, what is that dpkg thing?
[07:47] <lokadin> Rubin: well i've been trying to remove openoffice.org but it keeps giving me dependancy errors
[07:47] <Rubin> CFSworks, graphics drivers are still alpha. give them a few months
[07:47] <n2diy> CFSworks:  It's been over a year since I played with the 8139, so I'm not sure of its name now.
[07:47] <Rubin> lokadin, you dont want to force past dependancy errors in ubuntu unless your really advanced
[07:47] <dystopianray> nikolai: you probably need gutsy
[07:47] <lns> philthy, dpkg -L
[07:47] <astro76> RudyValencia, I've been running a few LNE100TXs for years, they're good enough
[07:47] <CFSworks> What? Graphics is solved. No problem.
[07:47] <nikolai> Thanks dystopianray
[07:47] <philthy> lsn, ty
[07:48] <lokadin> Rubin: well i was trying to do a dist-upgrade,  currently it's not completing the process cause of some conflicting dependancies
[07:48] <dystopianray> i love intel graphics
[07:48] <chuy> is there a command that I can run in bash that returns true if a certain file exists?
[07:48] <lns> np
[07:48] <RudyValencia> astro76: cool\
[07:48] <Rubin> lokadin, but to answer your question, man dpkg and apt-get
[07:48] <pawan> any good webcam software for ubuntu
[07:48] <yeniklasorr> Rubin : it is bashing absolute query
[07:48] <phrost6> can't get ubuntu server to install from a usb cdrom drive.. it's (the kernel) is detecting the drive as sr0 but not populating /dev and the installer can't find it
[07:48] <Avielus> intel graphics are the only thing between me and halo 2 :O
[07:48] <astro76> RudyValencia, I don't think the newer linksys are any good
[07:48] <lokadin> Rubin: well -f remove didn't work
[07:48] <CFSworks> I'm not much of a fan of their graphics, though. :(
[07:48] <RudyValencia> how are 3com 3C509 series?
[07:48] <lns> chuy, the if statement does this
[07:48] <n2diy> chuy, consult the bash man page.
[07:48] <CFSworks> Usually if I'm trying to put graphics in something, it's for very-high-end 3D.
[07:48] <missingxtension> can someone help me add ofbiz to /etc/init.d/
[07:49] <Rubin> lokadin, can you remove all the relevent packages involved and install them again after the upgrade?

[07:49] <lokadin> Rubin: i would love to do that
[07:49] <Rubin> lokadin, apt-get remove x y z does not work?
[07:49] <lokadin> yes
[07:49] <thedash> is there a way to minimize Evolution to tray and have it continue to update ?
[07:49] <astro76> RudyValencia, that's one of the best
[07:50] <chuy> lns: how? I did if myfile; then echo yes; fi, but it expect a command named myfile
[07:50] <lokadin> The following packages have unmet dependencies: language-support-sk: Depends: openoffice.org-help-sk but it is not installable
[07:50] <n2diy> thedash: drag it from the menu to the tray?
[07:50] <endlessurf> hey i had a question about wireshark....anyone
[07:50] <astro76> chuy, I think if [ -e myfile ] 
[07:50] <Rubin> lokadin: uninstall language-support-sk also
[07:50] <lns> chuy, read about bash shell scripting
[07:50] <lns> the if statement and its syntax is basic bash scripting
[07:51] <chuy> done, astro76, it's f :)
[07:51] <lokadin> Rubin: there is a rather long list
[07:51] <dystopianray> endlessurf: hurry up and ask the question
[07:51] <endlessurf> oh
[07:51] <lns> lol
[07:51] <astro76> chuy, there's a ton of them
[07:51] <lokadin> Rubin: would be cool if i could remove them one at a time or something, or actually get them to remove
[07:51] <pawan> !gaim

[07:51] <lns> it's like a free support center where the gurus yell at the customers for not talking fast enough ;)
[07:52] <endlessurf> dystopianray:   i have my eth 1 and my lo under devices
[07:52] <endlessurf> i was wondering what is lo
[07:52] <lns> endlessurf, loopback interface (127.0.0.1)
[07:52] <Digit9> Hey, quick question. I'm running 5.10 and trying to burn 7.04, right clicking the ISO to burn it, burns it correctly right?
[07:52] <n2diy> endlessurf: lo is your loopback connector, linux uses that to talk to itself!
[07:52] <astro76> Digit9, yeah
[07:52] <endlessurf> hahah
[07:52] <Rubin> lokadin, usually you'll find that the override dependancy trail is longer or just as long as the other way. but if you must try it, dpkg --force-depends might do it
[07:52] <Digit9> So, it just doesnt burn the file
[07:52] <RudyValencia> hm, why's the AC'97 sound in this computer have background noise in it when I listen through headphones?
[07:52] <endlessurf> ah at least it is not just me
[07:53] <dobblego> how do I change the user that smbd runs as?
[07:53] <endlessurf> and now it's my computer
[07:53] <astro76> Digit9, indeed
[07:53] <Digit9> Well, that's good to know. Hopefully this works... Thanks Astro
[07:53] <n2diy> endlessurf: no, I'm serious, some processes check for lo.
[07:53] <Digit9> I shall be back after the install is complete :P
[07:54] <lokadin> Rubin: can dpkg remove things?
[07:54] <yeniklasorr> Why this a bash is doing absolute query?   #!/bin/bash  cd /opt/ebyn  /bin/bash bdp.sh
[07:54] <lns> lokadin, apt is a frontend for dpkg
[07:54] <s2rth> hi
[07:54] <CowzRule> }:-o  Moo
[07:54] <missingxtension> can someone help me add ofbiz as a service?
[07:54] <lokadin> what's the option for remove?
[07:55] <n2diy> lokadin: rm
[07:55] <s2rth> it seems compiz AMD64 ubuntu repository is broken
[07:55] <n2diy> lokadin: be very careful with that.
[07:55] <lokadin> n2diy: options usually have dashes infront
[07:55] <n2diy> lokadin: rm -i
[07:55] <lokadin> n2diy: nimwit
[07:56] <n2diy> lokadin: rtfm -f ;)
[07:56] <astro76> lokadin, it's better to use apt-get remove or aptitude remove
[07:56] <lokadin> n2diy: gfyaym
[07:56] <lns> s2rth, i just did an apt-get update fine from one of my servers
[07:56] <endlessurf> i believe you, but the response and my humor i can't help it
[07:56] <n2diy> lokadin: UNCLE
[07:56] <lokadin> lol
[07:56] <s2rth> but its still broken
[07:57] <s2rth> i just went tru web
[07:57] <lns> s2rth, ..?
[07:57] <s2rth> http://ubuntu.moshen.de/pool/feisty/eyecandy/compiz-config-ini_0.5.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[07:57] <n2diy> lokadin: ok, what's gfyaym?
[07:57] <s2rth> its broken
[07:57] <lokadin> n2diy: you don't wanna know
[07:57] <s2rth> lns, please look that
[07:57] <therealnanotube> lokadin: dpkg -r should work to remove (man dpkg for details)
[07:58] <therealnanotube> lokadin: i wanna know! :)
[07:58] <lokadin> :P
[07:58] <n2diy> lokadin: so your going to make me google it?
[07:58] <lokadin> probably not gonna find it, i made it up on the spot
[07:58] <lns> s2rth, that link is wrong..the repositories seem fine
[07:59] <therealnanotube> lokadin: n2diy, yea, no google resultso :)
[07:59] <YingFan> I have no QT environment variables at the moment and have both qt3 and 4 installed. How do I change default Qt from 3 to 4?
[07:59] <lokadin> can google "we with you are gods"  few results there too
[07:59] <n2diy> lokadin: roger all that, gfy, go for your...?
[08:00] <dfewr> shasha
[08:00] <therealnanotube> is anyone here a super-expert on mediawiki? or at least halfway so?
[08:00] <therealnanotube> n2diy: i was gonna guess it starts with "go fsck your..." :)
[08:00] <n2diy> therealnanotube: Experts don't hang out here, they have to go to work tomorrow!
[08:01] <Avielus> work? :O
[08:01] <s2rth> lns, could u give me the correct repository for compiz
[08:01] <lns> s2rth, apt-cache search compiz
[08:01] <therealnanotube> n2diy: haha apparently so... i just found out the same's true on the mediawiki channel, unfortunately, so this here's my last resort. :)
[08:01] <lns> if that doesn't work then google for it
[08:02] <n2diy> therealnanotube: Ok and the rest is "and your mom" How juv.
[08:02] <therealnanotube> s2rth: check out the compiz official site: http://www.opencompositing.org/
[08:02] <phenom> Experts? Ohh those guys that leave the military, and get the good tech jobs just because their cleared? Ehh those experts.
[08:02] <s2rth> no i'm getting ok
[08:02] <therealnanotube> n2diy: hehe cute. ;)
[08:03] <Digit9> Successfully burned and booted into Xubuntu 7.04, w00t. Gotta admit I like the live cd on the install cd.
[08:03] <lns> phenom, look at government/military owned networks, and see how much they get h4x0r3d...those experts?
[08:03] <therealnanotube> phenom: heh, well, i was kinda hoping for those experts that know their way around some php. :) no security clearance required.
[08:04] <phenom> One could have written Melissa, sub7, but hes not qualified as a Forensic Analyst, hes not cleared. :/
[08:04] <phenom> This system is going to fail.
[08:04] <n2diy> I lost my dialup connection, and when I went to re-connect, kppp told me the modem was busy.  I reset the modem, still busy, switched modems, still busy, disconnected the modem, and still busy. Reset the port with minicom, same thing. Did init 1 then init 5, logged out of root, and back in as me, and that fixed it. Ideas?
[08:05] <pHill> i'm an idiot.
[08:05] <phenom> Because people like me are about tired of cleaning their white hat..
[08:05] <PoofDaddy> I just installed a program on Synaptic.  where can i find it now?
[08:05] <therealnanotube> n2diy: idea #1: something weird is going on :)
[08:05] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: what program?
[08:05] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, what was it?
[08:05] <n2diy> therealnanotube: I suspect a lock file, but I couldn't find it.
[08:05] <joris_> I have a rather odd feisty problem. Machine with a core2quad cpu with a 2.6.20-16-generic kernel works very fast, altough with only 3.2 out of 8GB of ram. Installing the 2.6.20-16-server kernel halves disk IO speed (measurably) and subjectively decimates CPU performance... I'm at a complete loss
[08:05] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube Rubin:GNU R package for financial engineering -- fOptions
[08:05] <therealnanotube> pHill: ehrm, well... remind me to avoid you, then. :)
[08:05] <Digit9> Quick question about Xubuntu. Can you run KDE and Gnome apps as well? Or just Xfce?
[08:06] <pawan> any good webcam software
[08:06] <bluesmoon> does anyone use network manager applet with the gnome-keyring-daemon on feisty?  I see a complete screen lockup if the keyring daemon window pops up for a passphrase while the nm-applet is open
[08:06] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, its not in the applications menu somewhere? (i'm not familiar with it)
[08:06] <dystopianray> Digit9: you can run any application on any ubuntu version
[08:06] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: that's a package for the R software, so i suspect if you start R, and then load the library foptions with "library(foptions)", you'll get at it.
[08:06] <Flannel> pawan: what do you want to do with said webcam?
[08:06] <alieas> Hi, I've upgraded my kernel to 2.6.22-9 from feisty.  before that I removed nvidia-glx.  since then I compiling NVIDIA's .sh, but X will not start.  Can someone advise on how to remove all currently installed nVidia modules?
[08:06] <Digit9> Ah, so the different Ubuntu types are just for the interface?
[08:07] <pawan> i want to test my webcam
[08:07] <n2diy> joris_: you might have better luck in #Ubuntu-kernel?
[08:07] <dystopianray> Digit9: that's right
[08:07] <Digit9> Alrighty, thanks
[08:07] <Flannel> pawan: try ekiga, it's already intsalled.  That'll let you know if it works by default or not
[08:07] <Digit9> Installing Xubutnu as we speak
[08:07] <psykidellic> hi...is there anyway to find if the USB port in the machine 2.0 or 1.x? I got this 2yr old machine from my dept. so I wnated to know.
[08:07] <n2diy> psykidellic: lshw?
[08:08] <pawan> how to start ekiga
[08:08] <Rubin> psykidellic, not sure, but try cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
[08:08] <therealnanotube> pawan: applications>internet>ekiga
[08:08] <dystopianray> psykidellic: grep lspci for EHCI
[08:08] <seanj> how do you change what x-window-manager is ?
[08:08] <Rubin> ooh didnt know about lshw, neat
[08:08] <joris_> n2diy: hmm, good hint :)
[08:08] <psykidellic> n2diy, Rubin dystopianray okie. Will check
[08:09] <n2diy> Rubin: :)
[08:09] <n2diy> joris_: :)
[08:09] <Rubin> seanj, if you use gdm theres an option to select it before you login. otherwise, it depends on your xsession and maybe on the alternatives system (man update-alternatives)
[08:09] <pawan> ekiga softphone
[08:09] <therealnanotube> psykidellic: try "lshw |grep -i usb2" and see if anything comes up. if so, then probably it's usb2
[08:09] <shasha> hiiiiiiiiiiiii
[08:09] <seanj> ok Rubin thanks!
[08:10] <seanj> it's still GDM so that'll be easy :)
[08:10] <Flannel> pawan: yeah.  You'll be able to see what your webcam sees, even without connecting to anything/one
[08:10] <seanj> I installed IceWM so I had something tiny while running games to make them work better
[08:10] <seanj> I love Ubuntu!
[08:11] <Digit9> Another question, what's the package popularity contest?
[08:11] <Digit9> :D
[08:11] <Flannel> seanj: you know you don't really need a WM to play a game, if you're that worried about it.  Just launch the game directly to the X server
[08:11] <seanj> Flannel: how do I do that?
[08:11] <pawan> but the webcam image quality is poor
[08:12] <Flannel> seanj: you'd start X (well, after closing your current one, if you wanted it closed) and then start the program in that X server.  and it'd run.
[08:12] <T-Connect> Is there away  to Triple Buffer my 5:4 for smoother screen? I'm using ATI graphics card.
[08:12] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube: so it's just the package, not the program.  It's useless without the software then.
[08:12] <seanj> okay kool, thanks Flannel :)
[08:12] <missingxtension> can someone help me add ofbiz to /etc/init.d/ofbiz i already have the script
[08:13] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: yes, indeed. i'm surprised that synaptic didn't list R as a dependency...
[08:13] <Digit9> Can anyone tell me what the package popularity contest is?
[08:13] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube: ok
[08:13] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: you can install R, as well, you know. it's in the repositories
[08:14] <TiG4> ** Anyone know of a decent Usenet reader, that supports easy media file downloads? **
[08:15] <Digit9> Uhh, I'm having trouble with the install of Xubuntu. It won't partition my drive. Says I don't have the permission to mount.
[08:15] <TiG4> Digit9, did you boot from the disk?
[08:15] <Digit9> Yessir
[08:15] <astro76> missingxtension, 'update-rc.d ofbiz defaults', would do it, but you should man update-rc.d for more options, there's a bunch of examples too
[08:15] <TiG4> Digit9, at what step did it tell you this?
[08:16] <Digit9> 1 sec
[08:16] <benanzo> Google Reader is good, I think Liferea does usenet.  I really like it
[08:16] <Digit9> 7/7 I assume
[08:16] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube: that stuff's not my cup of tea anyway.  I was just shoeing my bro.  I used synaptic to completely remove it.  Does that also get rid of all the dependencies?
[08:16] <TiG4> benanzo, Google Reader is online, I can't download binaries using it :/
[08:16] <TiG4> Digit9, is the drive your primary or slave?
[08:16] <Digit9> I'm at step 7/7, and the next step is "Install"
[08:16] <Rubin> Digit9, do you have a flash drive in there?
[08:16] <missingxtension> astro: thank you let me try that, i have read about chkconfig too but its not for ubuntu
[08:16] <Digit9> I click install
[08:17] <Digit9> Hmm, 1 sec
[08:17] <lokadin> Rubin: worked with dpkg -r --force-depends
[08:17] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: i don't think synaptic removes the dependencies... just the package. check your install history, it would show everything that was installed with foptions - then see if those are still installed.
[08:17] <Digit9> "Failed to create a file system"
[08:17] <Rubin> lokadin, yay
[08:17] <lokadin> :D
[08:17] <Digit9> "The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,1,0) (sda) failed."
[08:18] <Rubin> Digit9, could be any number of problems accessing your hard disk. maybe the scsi drivers arnt working. you could try the alternate install cd
[08:18] <Digit9> I clicked ok and it sent me back to 4/7 which sets up the disks
[08:18] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube: how do i check the install history on synaptic?
[08:18] <Digit9> Alternate install? I only had 1 disk heh
[08:18] <Rubin> digit9: theres another disk for special hardware situations
[08:18] <Corpsenator> hi everyone
[08:18] <n2diy> PoofDaddy: your log files?
[08:19] <Digit9> My hardware isn't special, you take that back!
[08:19] <Rubin> :)
[08:19] <missingxtension> ASTRO76: I should be able to /etc/init.d/ofbiz restart but it i get a sudo: unable to execute /etc/init.d/ofbiz: No such file or directory
[08:19] <missingxtension> i know its there i see it
[08:19] <Rubin> is it ofbiz or ofbiz.sh ?
[08:19] <PoofDaddy> n2diy: where do I find them?
[08:19] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: file > history
[08:19] <Rubin> missingxtension, is it executable?
[08:19] <Digit9> I don't seem to see why there is a prob. 5.10 install fine on it. Plus I'm just trying to erase the whole disk
[08:19] <n2diy> PoofDaddy: /var/log(s)
[08:20] <Rubin> Digit9, did you try a manual partition option?
[08:20] <Digit9> I clicked it right now. How should I partition it?
[08:20] <Rubin> heh
[08:20] <missingxtension> yes it is 700 and its actually not an sh dang let me change the it
[08:20] <Digit9> :P
[08:21] <Rubin> digip1mp, if nothing else, you need a swap partition and a root partition
[08:21] <Rubin> digit9 rather
[08:21] <Digit9> Lol
[08:21] <Digit9> I'll manually delete them and try over, 1 sec
[08:21] <Rubin> the art and science of unix disk partition schemes is more than can be conveyed on IRC :)
[08:21] <n2diy> Digit9: Do yourself a favor, and create a /home partition too.
[08:22] <Digit9> What size?
[08:22] <PoofDaddy> therealnanotube: i see the history, but do I have to remove each dependency manually?
[08:22] <Rubin> make swap about 512 megs maybe
[08:22] <Rubin> make / 10 or 20 gigs
[08:22] <Rubin> the rest in /home
[08:22] <n2diy> Digit9: Whatever you need for yourself and your friends.
[08:22] <Digit9> At the moment I have a ext3 partition with 19,518mb and a swap with 896mb
[08:23] <Digit9> It had 5.10 on it
[08:23] <Rubin> oh, small hard drive
[08:23] <socialist> am I correct in assuming (based on what it says here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto) that one has to actually write C code to customize a usplash screen aside from just the background image?
[08:23] <Digit9> 20gb drive
[08:23] <Rubin> i'd stick with what you got
[08:23] <Digit9> I can't though
[08:23] <Digit9> Won't let me
[08:23] <Digit9> Lol
[08:23] <Rubin> later you can get a nice new big drive and mount it as /home
[08:23] <Rubin> Digit9, delete those and create new ones just like them :)
[08:23] <n2diy> Digit9: The idea behind a /home partition is, all your stuff will be there, and you can move when you need too.
[08:23] <Digit9> I have two 500gb drives for just media and whatnot on a windows server. No need for alot of space on mine\
[08:24] <Rubin> you could split the 20 gig into / and /home
[08:24] <Rubin> 10 yeach
[08:24] <therealnanotube> PoofDaddy: well, not quite manually... see this ubuntuforums thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140920
[08:24] <Digit9> What do they do?
[08:24] <Rubin>  / is where everything is..
[08:24] <Digit9> / is for the op system, and home is for my files?
[08:24] <Rubin> home is where your login home directories are
[08:24] <socialist> does anyone know anything about usplash?
[08:24] <Rubin> for settings and configs and documents etc
[08:24] <Digit9> Ah
[08:25] <seanj> mine is /home/seanj
[08:25] <seanj> :D
[08:25] <TBZ> is there a program that will let me setup custom hotkeys from devices? as in capture hardware input and convert to a hotkey?
[08:25] <Digit9> Ok, so. First is first. We do the / partition right?
[08:25] <Rubin>  /boot is where the kernel goes, /var is for frequently changed things like temp and databases and lock files.
[08:25] <pawan_> any good webcam software
[08:26] <socialist> http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html
[08:26] <n2diy> seanj: is that a physical partition, or logical? You need a physical partition to benefit.
[08:26] <seanj> sorry n2diy, I have just one big / partition
[08:26] <seanj> I thought he meant directories, not partitions
[08:26] <Digit9> So, / should be ext3 with 10gb
[08:27] <n2diy> seanj: Roger that, ideally you should have / and /home.
[08:27] <Digit9> /home with ext3 and 9gb
[08:27] <Digit9> and /swap with 1gb and what?
[08:27] <seanj> damn... I guess I'd have to re-install everything to do that..
[08:27] <Digit9> swap file system
[08:28] <Rubin> seanj: not necessarily...
[08:28] <Rubin> Digit9, swap is what is used if you run out of ram. 512 should be plenty
[08:28] <n2diy> seanj: Some day you will re-install, it will be painful the next time, but once you have /home, it will be a lot easier, so they say.
[08:28] <Rubin> if your swapping out a gig of ram your system will be unusable anyway :)
[08:28] <Digit9> 384 is how much ram I have. So yea, lol
[08:28] <seanj> okay :)
[08:29] <Rubin> Digit9, i have heard people suggest using a swap partition that matches your ram size
[08:29] <seanj> I'll just stick with my current setup for now then
[08:29] <Rubin> seanj, you could resize your / partition and make a new one for /home. but its a lot of work
[08:29] <Digit9> So, I should just try 384?
[08:29] <seanj> ugh
[08:29] <Rubin> Digit9, sure :)
[08:29] <Digit9> I can keep open space to upgrade it to 512 in the future right?
[08:29] <seanj> so far just one big / seems to work fine
[08:30] <n2diy> seanj: comb the streets, gather hardware, and build a test box, that you can play on/with.
[08:30] <Rubin> Digit9, if your going to leave open space you mid-as-well just use it for swap
[08:30] <Digit9> True
[08:30] <seanj> I used FreeBSD a few times and it auto-made all the partitions
[08:30] <seanj> so I just followed the same routine in Ubuntu installation
[08:30] <pawan1> hi
[08:30] <Rubin> seanj, its perfectly acceptable for a new user
[08:30] <pawan1> hello
[08:30] <seanj> ok Rubin, that's good news :)
[08:30] <pawan1> any good webcam software
[08:30] <wolfwalker> This is bugging the A(*&%)*(^$*)()*_($ out of me
[08:31] <seanj> I could handle waiting a while before doing it all over again
[08:31] <n2diy> ! hello | pawan
[08:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:31] <seanj> I spent hours getting some games working, and now everything is perfect
[08:31] <n2diy> ?
[08:31] <wolfwalker> How do I identify and install drivers for my sound card and mouse touchpad?
[08:31] <T-Connect> I have cleaning up all those leftovers that didn't get uninstall. XD
[08:31] <Rubin> wolfwalker, most of that stuff should work out of the box in a recent ubuntu.. if not you have a lot of learning and work
[08:32] <pawan1> !hello
[08:32] <dystopianray> wolfwalker: your soundcard doesn't work?
[08:32] <wolfwalker> Nope
[08:32] <T-Connect> Some uninstallers are broken.
[08:32] <n2diy> wolfwalker: Identify what sound card and touchpad is the first step.
[08:32] <wolfwalker> But a usb stick soundcard does, so all is not lost
[08:32] <dystopianray> wolfwalker: what card do you have?
[08:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:32] <wolfwalker> And I could just put duct tape over the mouse touchpad
[08:32] <Digit9> Should any of these partitions be "logical"
[08:32] <wolfwalker> How do I find out what card I have?
[08:32] <dystopianray> wolfwalker: lspci
[08:32] <Rubin> Digit9, you can only have 4 primary partitions. logical ones are for helping you get past that limit
[08:33] <Digit9> Ah
[08:33] <wolfwalker> dystopianray,  bless you :P
[08:33] <wolfwalker> What is lspci?
[08:33] <n2diy> wolfwalker: lshw
[08:33] <Digit9> Okie, lets see if this works
[08:33] <dystopianray> wolfwalker: run it in a terminal and it'll tell you all the pci devices in your system
[08:33] <Rubin> ls means list. pci is the card bus in your computer where things like soundcards are located physically
[08:34] <wolfwalker> Oh neat!
[08:34] <T-Connect> Besure have 518kb for swap. There isn't no 512kb for swap.
[08:34] <wolfwalker> In the terminal, right?
[08:34] <seanj> damn, dead links for UT on GNU/Linux :(
[08:34] <dystopianray> wolfwalker: yes
[08:34] <Digit9> 912mb of swap
[08:34] <wolfwalker>  ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio (rev 01)
[08:34] <seanj> I got the original Unreal working in Cedega, though
[08:34] <Rubin> T-Connect, meg you mean?
[08:34] <T-Connect> Oh that.
[08:34] <Digit9> The following partitions are going to be formatted:
[08:34] <Digit9>  partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,1,0) (sda) as ext3
[08:34] <Digit9>  partition #3 of SCSI1 (0,1,0) (sda) as swap
[08:34] <Digit9>  partition #2 of SCSI1 (0,1,0) (sda) as ext3
[08:34] <Digit9> Oops
[08:34] <T-Connect> I thought it is kb.
[08:34] <T-Connect> XD
[08:34] <Digit9> No, mb
[08:35] <Digit9> As far as I know
[08:35] <Rubin> yeah meg :)
[08:35] <T-Connect> You just need 1 ex3.
[08:35] <Digit9> Well, I have two damnit
[08:35] <T-Connect> Oh wait. I wrong.
[08:35] <Rubin> T-Connect, thats true but more is better
[08:35] <Digit9> One is / and one is /home
[08:36] <Digit9> Grr, and that didn't work either
[08:36] <T-Connect> I only have ex3 and swap.
[08:36] <Rubin> Digit9, try alt cd
[08:36] <Oompa> Is there any good dual boot guide? I have a friend wanting to install Ubuntu, but I don't feel like walking him through it
[08:36] <wolfwalker> lol
[08:36] <wolfwalker> !dualboot

[08:37] <Digit9> !singleboot
[08:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about singleboot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:37] <Digit9> Darn
[08:37] <wolfwalker> My my, but I DO love that bot!
[08:37] <wolfwalker> !botsnack
[08:37] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[08:37] <Oompa> hah
[08:37] <Digit9> !uniboot
[08:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uniboot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:37] <T-Connect> I like to keep my ex3 in whole instead of parts.
[08:37] <Avielus> what do I do with a .run file?
[08:37] <n2diy> wolfwalker: walker is quick!
[08:37] <Oompa> run it :o
[08:37] <Digit9> Into the wall
[08:37] <Avielus> eh?
[08:37] <wolfwalker> I'm what?
[08:37] <T-Connect> XD
[08:37] <Rubin> T-Connect, we could have an hour long discussion about why thats not optimal. but it works fine for new users so dont worry about it :)
[08:38] <n2diy> wolfwalker: fast on the keys! :)
[08:38] <Digit9> Grrr
[08:38] <Digit9> This sucks
[08:38] <Digit9> 5.10 didn't have any problems
[08:38] <wolfwalker> wolfwalker is still not finding anything on his soundcard yet, but at least he knows what kind it is now
[08:38] <Rubin> Digit9, any messages on alternate virtual terminals or during boot sequence that might help?
[08:38] <T-Connect> I don't have a problem with just one. =D
[08:39] <Digit9> What?
[08:39] <Digit9> Lol
[08:39] <T-Connect> I know how to cleanup.
[08:39] <Digit9> That went over my head
[08:39] <wolfwalker> !ekiga
[08:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ekiga - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:39] <wolfwalker> Grrr
[08:39] <n2diy> Digit9: what are you trying to upgrade to, did you follow the "path"?
[08:39] <Rubin> Digit9, virtual terminals are alternate text screens in linux. alt-f1 through alt-f9
[08:39] <Rubin> Digit9, in x, you have to use control-alt-f1 etc
[08:39] <TBZ> is there a program that will listen to a hardware input device, and map straight from hardware input, to a hotkey?
[08:39] <Digit9> Not upgrading, trying a complete install of Xubuntu 7.04 I beleive. It booted into the live cd looking enviroment and I clicked "Install"
[08:40] <Rubin> Digit9, the installer uses some of them to display information about whats going on to help debug
[08:40] <Avielus> okay, when I try to run my .run, I get a "gedit has not been able to detect the character coding" error msg.
[08:40] <TBZ> reason I'm asking, is because I have a mouse with 6 buttons, which only 3 work...as well as more keys on keyboard than standard
[08:40] <T-Connect> I found out on how to use new flash screen. This will help. >>> sudo aptitude install gnome-splashscreen-manager
[08:41] <Rubin> tbz: try googling your mouse model and linux, maybe someone before you got the buttons to work
[08:41] <n2diy> Avielus, what is a .run program?
[08:41] <T-Connect> I love Ubuntu in black and orange.
[08:41] <n2diy> Avielus, what is a .run program?
[08:42] <Digit9> Well um, I dunno wtf that was, but it kicked me out
[08:42] <Digit9> Lol
[08:42] <Avielus> I think it's an installer
[08:42] <T-Connect> Try any other Ubuntu out?
[08:42] <PoofDaddy> How do I do a screenshot of a single window?
[08:42] <T-Connect> Clones?
[08:42] <Digit9> Ok, so what do I need to do?
[08:42] <Digit9> Ctrl-Alt-What?
[08:43] <n2diy> Avielus, I don't think so, were did you get it from?
[08:43] <Rubin> digit9: Digit9 do the install. when it fails, hit alt-f1 alt-f2 etc and look if theres any messages on one of them
[08:43] <Rubin> the installer is on alt-f1
[08:43] <Rubin> or alt-f7 depending..
[08:43] <T-Connect> Ctrl+Alt+backspace/
[08:43] <Avielus> I dl'd Tremulous, from tremulous.net. Never tried it on linux before.
[08:43] <kazim59> I want to setup file sharing between my feisty & windows pc... i've installed samba... now?
[08:43] <Avielus> I've seen .run files before, but I never know what to do with them
[08:43] <Digit9> Hmm, the installer isn't coming up
[08:43] <Rubin> !samba | kazim59
[08:43] <ubotu> kazim59: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:43] <nasso_> does anyone know if there is any terminal application that i can use for monitoring my total upload/download speeds?
[08:44] <drgeb> Hi, whats a good program for a calendar in Ubuntu? I am using Thuderbird for email.
[08:44] <Rubin> nasso_, iftop is neat
[08:44] <T-Connect> Trying a beta out Digit9?
[08:44] <n2diy> Avielus, Roger that, I've never seen a .run file, good luck.
[08:44] <Rubin> drgeb, google calendar :)
[08:44] <T-Connect> Dont use beta.
[08:44] <Avielus> eh, thanks anyways.
[08:44] <Digit9> No, trying to install the damn thing for good
[08:44] <Digit9> Heh
[08:44] <Avielus> experience with .run, anybody? :P
[08:45] <T-Connect> Where did you get it from?
[08:45] <Digit9> I was using 5.10 because it was the only install CD I had. But it's unsupported so I downloading Xubuntu 7.04
[08:45] <Digit9> downloaded*
[08:45] <Rubin> Digit9, try the alternate CD :)
[08:45] <Digit9> I don't wanna!
[08:45] <Digit9> Gonna try the alt-f crap
[08:45] <Rubin> also
[08:46] <Rubin> try googling for your scsi controler and ubuntu. maybe theres a boot flag that helps
[08:46] <T-Connect> http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/
[08:46] <kazim59> Rubin: that documentation refers to fields in smb.conf that are really not there... and some are there with a different name
[08:46] <T-Connect> Try those.
[08:46] <n2diy> Digiit9, did you burn the 7.04 cd and try to install from that?
[08:46] <Digit9> That's what I have t-connect
[08:46] <Avielus> T-Connect, was the "Where did you get it from" for me?
[08:46] <Rubin> kazim59, unfortunately configuring smb.conf is complex..  the ones that arnt there you can create
[08:47] <monk> how do i get ntfs-3g work, i have installed ntfs-3g, ntfs-config.... and ran ntfs-config, and choosed "enable write on internal device" but still i cannot create folder in ntfs drive, help plz. ? :)
[08:47] <nasso_> Rubin: oh! that is it! didnt remember the name. thanks
[08:47] <Digit9> I have the fesity xubuntu release. It's burned to a disk and that's what I am currently using
[08:47] <Digit9> feisty**
[08:47] <T-Connect> Ok you have a Intel or AMD computer?
[08:47] <Digit9> Intel
[08:47] <pawan1> hello
[08:47] <Rubin> Digit9, the alternate CD is on that page too :-)
[08:47] <Digit9> >.<
[08:47] <kazim59> Rubin: both pc's (ubuntu & XP) are showing each other pc's name in the Network Places... but neither is able to open
[08:48] <kazim59> do I have to be a samba server?
[08:48] <monk> has someone read ma post above... help please
[08:48] <Rubin> kazim59, sorry, i havnt done it in a really long time. maybe someone else has more experience
[08:48] <T-Connect> Redo try.
[08:48] <maxxism> omg.  I love ubuntu on my new 1080p 42".
[08:48] <Digit9> I hate xubuntu on my 15" vga
[08:48] <Rubin> lol
[08:48] <maxxism> just thought i would share that
[08:48] <T-Connect> Sound like something is corrapted.
[08:48] <faileas> monk: was the NTFS drive dismounted cleanly?
[08:49] <monk> faileas, i dont know
[08:49] <faileas> monk: dualboot?
[08:49] <monk> faileas, all my partitions r automatically mounted when i boot into ubuntu.
[08:49] <monk> faileas, triple boot
[08:49] <seanj> how do I add directories to the "Places" in Nautilus?
[08:49] <faileas> monk: I  mean from windows
[08:49] <Digit9> Hey, what's the command to format a drive?
[08:50] <faileas> monk: boot into windows. restart, see if it mounts
[08:50] <Digit9> I'll try to format it manually, then use the partitioner in the installer
[08:50] <Digit9> See if that works
[08:50] <seanj> Digit9: mkfs.ext3
[08:50] <monk> faileas, no i'm not running ubuntu in virtualisation,
[08:50] <Digit9> The drive shows up, I can navigate the files and whatnot
[08:51] <seanj> Digit9: or hit mkfs.<tab> to see the different file systems you can create
[08:51] <seanj> I always use ext3 for some reason
[08:51] <faileas> monk: no, boot into windows, and restart to make sure the drive is 'clean'
[08:51] <wolfwalker> Okay, how do I update the kernel?  Forum topic says my problem with my soundcard was fixed in the latest kernel update.
[08:51] <Rubin> seanj: ooh i just saw something about that earlier tonight... /usr/share/gnome-something
[08:51] <monk> faileas, brb
[08:51] <seanj> hm k... hope you can remember.. I could just make a shortcut on the desktop but it looks so clean right now :)
[08:52] <Digit9> Starting the terminal shuts down my screen
[08:52] <Digit9> Lol
[08:52] <Digit9> Kicks me out to the login screen
[08:52] <maxxism> seanj: in nautilus you bookmark folders.  ctrl-d   and it adds them to places
[08:52] <Rubin> seanj: or http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2006/08/31/how-to-add-folder-locations-to-the-places-menu/
[08:52] <seanj> maxxism: great thanks!
[08:52] <T-Connect> seanj tell him again.
[08:52] <Rubin> Digit9, you mean alt-fx ?
[08:52] <seanj> T-Connect: tell who what? lol
[08:52] <Digit9> No, clicking "Applications - Accessories - Terminal"
[08:52] <Digit9> =P
[08:52] <T-Connect> Digit9
[08:52] <Rubin> digit9: eek. thats weird..
[08:53] <seanj> oh okay
[08:53] <kazim59> just tell me one thing... do I have to turn on WINS server on ubuntu?
[08:53] <seanj> Digit9: you can make ext3 filesystems with the command mkfs.ext3
[08:53] <Rubin> kazim59, no
[08:53] <Digit9> No I can't
[08:53] <seanj> :(
[08:53] <Digit9> My terminal kicks me out to the logins creen
[08:53] <Digit9> Lol
[08:53] <PoofDaddy> I'm running Edgy.  I heard it's pretty buggy is that true?  It seems to me to be true.
[08:53] <seanj> ouch... never heard of that before
[08:54] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, its less buggy than any linux i have ever seen..
[08:54] <kazim59> Rubin: when I connect from Windows to the Ubuntu pc... it asks for username & password.. though it does not accept any username & password
[08:54] <seanj> if you hit ALT+CTRL+F1 you can go to a terminal screen, do your thing, then ALT+F7 to go back to X
[08:54] <T-Connect> Try Ubuntu for a test Digit9. If that works then something is wrong with the other one.
[08:54] <Rubin> kazim59, did you make a samba password ?
[08:54] <PoofDaddy> Rubin: Do you suggest that I upgrade to Feisty?
[08:54] <Lappy> how do I increase the number of desktops?
[08:54] <Beta-guy> hi I install Linux on my PS3 but I'm facing an issue, any time I have a disc in the drive eventually the drive ejects it without me giving the command to do so, how can I resolve this issue?
[08:54] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, you have to evaluate that for yourself. i can only say i like it
[08:54] <maxxism> PoofDaddy yes
[08:55] <T-Connect> Linux on PS3? XD
[08:55] <maxxism> PoofDaddy.  best to stay current.
[08:55] <Beta-guy> yep
[08:55] <PoofDaddy> Rubin maxxism: what is involved with the upgrade?  Do I need to back up my data or preferences?
[08:55] <maxxism> I have been running ubuntu on my ps3.  till it died yesterday
[08:55] <kazim59> Rubin: no
[08:55] <rbraley> Poofdaddy I have had some problems doing a dist-upgrade from edgy to feisty
[08:55] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, of course
[08:55] <Beta-guy> maxxism how'd your PS3 die?
[08:56] <PoofDaddy> rbraley: What kinda probs?
[08:56] <maxxism> PoofDaddy i would always backup before a major upgrade
[08:56] <kazim59> Rubin: using smbpasswd command?
[08:56] <maxxism> think it  over heated.
[08:56] <Rubin> everyone in here needs to backup their data and preferences, regardless if they are upgrading or not. its a computer  :)
[08:56] <T-Connect> He put Linux on PS3. That how it die.
[08:56] <Beta-guy> the only other time I heard of a PS3 dying is when some one duct taped the vents
[08:56] <maxxism> Sony is sending me a box to ship it back though.  should be 10 day turn around.
[08:56] <Rubin> kazim59, yep
[08:56] <flash42> Lappy: Adding Workspaces
[08:56] <flash42> To add workspaces to the GNOME Desktop, right-click on the Workspace Switcher applet, then choose Preferences. The Workspace Switcher Preferences dialog is displayed. Use the Number of workspaces spin box to specify the number of workspaces that you require.
[08:56] <PoofDaddy> Rubin maxxism: Is there a link on a forum you could send me?
[08:56] <wolfwalker> Could someone tell me how to update the kernel?  I'm still on the .iso's kernel, and I found out my sound problem is fixed in the next kernel update.
[08:56] <Rubin> !upgrading
[08:56] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:57] <Lappy> flash42, it's not hte same... I cant use compiz to (rotate) from a workspace to another workspace.
[08:57] <wolfwalker> Danka
[08:57] <Rubin> wolfwalker, the next fiesty kernel, or the kernel in the next version of ubuntu?
[08:57] <TBZ> !compile
[08:57] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:57] <maxxism> yeah i was surprised too.   PS3's are usually good.
[08:57] <Beta-guy> is there a easy way to upgrade the kernel?
[08:57] <TBZ> !make
[08:57] <kazim59> Rubin: smbpasswd made it work! Thanks!
[08:57] <wolfwalker> The next feisty kernel
[08:57] <Rubin> Beta-guy, if the one you want to upgrade to is in the package manager, then yes
[08:57] <Lappy> flash42, desktop effects work in 1 workspace, so Iwant 4 desktops/workspace.
[08:57] <PoofDaddy> Rubin maxxism: I notice that when i run updates there is a notice of a new distro release and there is a button called "upgrade".  It can't be that easy.
[08:58] <maxxism> PoofDaddy yes it can
[08:58] <Beta-guy> maxxism: I bought a HDTV to I could expieriance Blu-Ray I love it
[08:58] <Rubin> wolfwalker, run synaptic and do an upgrade
[08:58] <T-Connect> Cool the update will give me a new Ubuntu.
[08:58] <flash42> Lappy: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-get-compiz-cube-to-work-on-multiple-desktop
[08:58] <wolfwalker> t.. what would be the point of that, unless I'm a beta tester?
[08:58] <maxxism> Beta-guy  oh yeah fer sure it is
[08:58] <Lappy> flash42,  thx
[08:58] <wolfwalker> Stupid mouspad
[08:58] <T-Connect> Thanks for that link.
[08:58] <Beta-guy> Rubin: I can upgrade the kernel with the upgrade manager?
[08:58] <Rubin> PoofDaddy, it starts out that easy. that doesn't always work perfectly though.
[08:58] <Rubin> Beta-guy, yeah
[08:59] <zyb> 
[08:59] <maxxism> PoofDaddy it worked good for me.
[08:59] <Beta-guy> sweet I think I'll try that tomorrow!
[08:59] <PoofDaddy> Rubin: with my luck and my knowledge, there will be some sort of problem.
[08:59] <kazim59> Rubin: the reason I'm networking the computers is weird though.... My pendrive has got viruses.. so I don't want to connect it to Windows PC.... so...
[08:59] <Rubin> wow i can actually see that zyb
[08:59] <zyb> my amule  don't work
[08:59] <Rubin> kazim59, pen drive? plug it into your linux pc, copy the files off it?
[09:00] <Superkuh> feisty 64bit; I am having issues with DNS not resolving on the aformentioned box and have no idea where to start troubleshooting. It can ping the gateway and do everything fine on the intranet, Is there a config file somewhere I should look at? Maybe just a few keywords to search for?
[09:00] <Rubin> kazim59, wipe it, copy the files back..
[09:00] <kazim59> Rubin: I've to transfer the files from pendrive to windows box
[09:00] <maxxism> Kazim59 then run ubuntu live on the windows machine and check the pen drive that way
[09:00] <kazim59> maxxism: wow! I didn't think about it
[09:00] <wolfwalker> I'm not fiiiiiinding it............
[09:00] <Rubin> Superkuh, dns is configured in /etc/resolv.conf which is often overwritten by DHCP
[09:00] <maxxism> ubuntu live cd can be a good forensic tool also
[09:01] <rly> is there anyone who may help me with skype settings?
[09:01] <wolfwalker> !kernel update
[09:01] <rly> I'm not being able of talking there
[09:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kernel update - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:01] <wolfwalker> ...............
[09:01] <wolfwalker> !kernel
[09:01] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild

[09:02] <zombie_monkey> can I have / on a primary one and swap, /home etc on logical ones?
[09:02] <zombie_monkey> partitions
[09:02] <kazim59> maxxism: i use live cd for two purposes... installing ubuntu... and restoring grub
[09:02] <somedrew> zombie_monkey, yup. You can even have / on a logical
[09:02] <Rubin> zombie_monkey, you can.. but using logical ones for home doesnt make much sense because its hard to keep them easily on a new install. best to use primary for it and logic for others
[09:02] <maxxism> and now for checking pen drives
[09:02] <Superkuh> Rubin: That did it, thanks! I recently moved (a few hours ago) and the DNS/gateway was different.
[09:02] <Lappy> flash42, it worked... thanks
[09:02] <flash42> Lappy: np
[09:02] <magick> I'm having some really odd problems. I just installed ubuntu 7.04 and while doing a system update it kernel paniced, and now when i try to do apt-get update, it hung. Any ideas? This is a fresh install.
[09:03] <Rubin> Superkuh, cheers :)
[09:03] <pai> hi. how do i restore the default panels on ubuntu feisty?
[09:03] <kazim59> maxxism: yes!
[09:03] <somedrew> Rubin, just wondering...why is it harder to keep /home on a logical?
[09:03] <Rubin> magick, it doesnt like your hardware
[09:03] <TBZ> You can always "install" ubuntu on top of windows with VMware...I don't know if it would sandbox virus though for sure
[09:03] <magick> Rubin, is there a way to narrow down which piece it doesn't like?
[09:03] <Rubin> somedrew, because logical is a hack.   basically the way logical works, you use one primary to create space for more 'logical' ones. so you have to keep track of that
[09:03] <wolfwalker> Okay, I'm in synaptic.  How do I get it to check for an updated kernel?
[09:03] <pai> hi. how do i restore the default panels on ubuntu feisty?
[09:04] <Lappy> anyone worked with Sony Vaios and Ubuntu before?
[09:04] <Rubin> magick, hmm. check logs maybe.. trial and error
[09:04] <zombie_monkey> I just bought this laptop with vista and it needs a 1.5gb in the first partition for the restore disks to work, so I'm short on primary partitions, that's why i'm asking
[09:04] <Rubin> magick: google others with your hardware and see if they found something to fix
[09:04] <magick> Rubin, cause right now its a basic setup, dvdrom, 500gb drive, video card and mobo. that's it.
[09:04] <n2diy> wolfwalker: search for linux, kernels are listed under that.
[09:04] <magick> Rubin, thanks i'll try that
[09:04] <vlt> Hello. I got this line in my syslog: "shutdown[1042] : shutting down for system halt". Is it possible to tell what initiated this shutdown?
[09:04] <zombie_monkey> *needs a 1.5gb partition
[09:05] <Rubin> vlt: someone running the command 'shutdown -h now' would do that.
[09:05] <n2diy> vlt: what do the lines above it say, somebody had to start the shutdown.
[09:05] <wolfwalker> Um................
[09:05] <terapicodave> is it possible to do a minimal install with a desktop cd?
[09:05] <somedrew> Rubin, thanks for the info. I find LVM a godsend personally when suffling is needed.
[09:05] <Rubin> terapicodave, no
[09:05] <wolfwalker> Okay............. now what?  I got a whole list of stuff, and no idea what I need.
[09:05] <Rubin> somedrew, yeah
[09:06] <wolfwalker> What's it listed under?
[09:06] <somedrew> terapicodave, you'll need the 'alternate' CD for that (or a server one)
[09:06] <terapicodave> i'll use the server one, 13mins left on the dl
[09:06] <n2diy> wolfwalker: if you don't know what you need, why do you need it?
[09:07] <wolfwalker> I don't know what it's listed as.  I know what I need, the latest kernel for Linux.
[09:07] <Beta-guy> how exactly do I update the kernel with the update manager?
[09:07] <magick> Rubin, since it hangs during either sys update or dist upgrade, its fair to say its the network.. googled it and many others have the problem.. going to try a pci network card. thanks!
[09:07] <Rubin> wolfwalker, linux kernels (modern ones) are using version numbers like 2.6.xx-y where xx is the linux minor version change, and y is the ubuntu patchlevel on that
[09:07] <wolfwalker> Beta-guy,  That's what I'm looking for
[09:07] <Beta-guy> thanks
[09:07] <somedrew> wolfwalker, latest is 2.6.22. Fiesty has a recent one, but for the latest vanilla is the way to go from kernel.org
[09:08] <Rubin> magick, great :)
[09:08] <somedrew> 2.6.22.2 I think
[09:08] <dts> is there a clean way to get the latest version of ruby on ubuntu LTS?
[09:08] <Beta-guy>  I thought kernels were only X.X.X now it's X.X.X.X? when did this happen?
[09:08] <n2diy> wolfwalker: Beta-guy, Ubuntu updates your kernel when it is needed, you don't have to do anythig.
[09:08] <Rubin> somedrew, installing vanilla kernel on ubuntu is not 'the way to go' unless you really know what you are doing.
[09:08] <n2diy> anythig/anything
[09:09] <somedrew> Rubin, yup absolutely...but if the 'latest' is needed...
[09:09] <skino> heya people.... i ws having issues with resolution on my laptop yesterday but now got it running at 1920x1200 but still can t get it to connect to my Dell 24" TFT is there anything special i need to do... cus when i use the tft it will load right through to login screen but u can see icons or menus ect
[09:09] <Rubin> wolfwalker, the person who told you to upgrade should tell you what version to upgrade to. then you find that in synaptic
[09:09] <Beta-guy> n2diy: I need to stop my PS3 from ejecting my discs automatically
[09:10] <Rubin> Beta-guy, its probably doing that because it cant figure out what to do with it
[09:10] <n2diy> wolfwalker: ok, why do you think that is a kernel issue?
[09:10] <somedrew> wolfwalker, why do you want the newest kernel? Is it a hardware issue?
[09:10] <skino> heya people.... i ws having issues with resolution on my laptop yesterday but now got it running at 1920x1200 but still can t get it to connect to my Dell 24" TFT is there anything special i need to do... cus when i use the tft it will load right through to login screen but u can see icons or menus ect
[09:10] <Beta-guy> Rubin: do you know what I should do?
[09:10] <wolfwalker> I found it in a forum, a guy with the same kind of laptop, same kind of soundcard, running off the same ISO disk.  He upgraded his kernel from 2.6.20-15 to 2.6.20-16 and it solved it.
[09:10] <wolfwalker> I think I got those numbers right
[09:10] <Rubin> Beta-guy, nope never even seen a ps3 :)
[09:11] <bjames> are there plans to replace gaim with pidgin in the Ubuntu 7.04 repositories (or at least add pidgin)?
[09:11] <Rubin> wolfwalker, what kernel do you have?
[09:11] <shiester_miester> greetings again everyone
[09:11] <Beta-guy> lol is there a way I can help improve linux for the PS3?
[09:11] <wolfwalker> How do I find that out?
[09:11] <shiester_miester> an unusual event has occurred
[09:11] <Beta-guy> I have no programming expieriance
[09:11] <shiester_miester> Beta-guy, you can learn some programming ;) its not impossible
[09:12] <wolfwalker> WHen was the last time the iso file's kernel was updated?  All I know is I downloaded the iso, burnt it off and installed it.
[09:12] <somedrew> bjames, not sure if it'll be back-changes, but future releases will use it by default
[09:12] <n2diy> bjames: ask that in #ubuntu+1, they should know.
[09:12] <bjames> Meta-guy: possibly documentation, graphics, language ports?
[09:12] <TiG4> ** I can't get rhythmbox to play this stream... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33784/   any ideas? **
[09:12] <Rubin> wolfwalker, ubuntu auto-updates over the internet
[09:12] <Rubin> includingthe kernel
[09:12] <bjames> somedrew: "back-changes"?
[09:12] <TiG4> **** I can't get rhythmbox to play this stream... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33784/   Can someone tryit out, any ideas? **
[09:12] <shiester_miester> when I click on a launcher in gdesklets, the thing its supposed to launch doesn't work, but when I take the command line from it and paste it into a terminal, it works perfectly...whats with this?
[09:12] <vlt> Rubin, n2diy: The second before the shutdown occurs a boot client loaded a kernel bin file via tftp: http://pastebin.ca/657949
[09:12] <Beta-guy> ant beta kernel by the Ubuntu project?
[09:12] <Beta-guy> any = any
[09:12] <sauvin> Is the "auto update" an automatic thing with ubuntu?
[09:12] <n2diy> Rubin: If you leave the box on, to run it's cron jobs.
[09:12] <wolfwalker> It auto-updates, but my soundcard still ain't working
[09:12] <wolfwalker> :(
[09:12] <somedrew> bjames, sorry....updating the old repos to provide pidgin for current Ubuntu releases
[09:13] <arooni_> i have a sansa express mp3 player... is there any app that lets me sync music to my device (w/o dragging & dropping)...?   an i-tunes like approach (where i can download podcasts & such) would be the most awesome.  i already have songbird... is there an extension for this?
[09:13] <sauvin> I misspoke. Is the "automatic update" thing the default behaviour for ubuntu feisty?
[09:13] <Ahadiel> arooni_: Amarok
[09:13] <wolfwalker> !amarok
[09:13] <ubotu> Amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.3 for Dapper and 1.4.5 for Edgy and packages are  available for Kubuntu at www.kubuntu.org See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Amarok

[09:14] <somedrew> sauvin, It's set up by default, but you can always changes it's polling frequency or disable it if desired
[09:14] <Rubin> sauvin, it asks on the desktop for permission
[09:14] <pawan> hi
[09:14] <sauvin> It's never asked me any such thing, and I've been using ubuntu now for at least a couple of weeks.
[09:14] <Rubin> hmm
[09:14] <pawan> how to install unicode fonts
[09:14] <Rubin> you run ubuntu or one of the variants like xubuntu?
[09:14] <TiG4> **** I can't get rhythmbox to play this stream... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33784/   Can someone tryit out, any ideas? **
[09:14] <sauvin> I don't WANT automatic updates because I fear they might break things.
[09:15] <sauvin> Rubin, what I have installed is stock ubuntu, running kde instead of gnome.
[09:15] <Rubin> sauvin: they only change things for security updates and bug fixes. they dont install new features
[09:15] <somedrew> sauvin, updates will not download or install unless you give the app permission
[09:15] <pawan> hello
[09:15] <Rubin> sauvin, so thats why. update-manage runs as a gnome applet
[09:15] <Rubin> sauvin, but you can run it by hand
[09:15] <sauvin> Ah.
[09:15] <sauvin> If I CHOOSE to. This is a Good Thing (tm)
[09:16] <ProN00b> pawan, i thought ubuntu default font's pretty much had most unicode symbols
[09:16] <Rubin> sauvin, even in gnome, it just asks if you want to
[09:16] <kraut> moin
[09:16] <sauvin> I've had some less-than-amusing experiences with yum updates in Fedora Core, and have since come to view such updating processes with a bit of suspicion.
[09:16] <Rubin> sauvin, thats healthy. but one of the best things about ubuntu is apt
[09:16] <monk> faileas, wat had happened that time why wasn't it creating folder ?
[09:16] <n2diy> ProN00b: check out menu > apps > character maps
[09:17] <sauvin> apt, yum, they're both good, IMO.
[09:17] <gordonjcp> sauvin: the updates are generally pretty much rock solid
[09:17] <gordonjcp> sauvin: accidents happen, but they *are* well-tested
[09:17] <n2diy> ProN00b: check out menu > apps > acessories > character maps
[09:17] <Rubin> sauvin, not the tool apt, but the ubuntu package system as a whole. the way there are stable and testing repositories etc
[09:17] <sauvin> Fedora Core isn't excactly bleeding edge.
[09:17] <somedrew> sauvin, as long as you are using the official repos all the updates are tested quite a bit to make sure they don't break anything. I can happen of course...
[09:17] <monk> faileas, has ntfs-3g made changes in fstab also so it can automatically mount in write mode for ntfs also ??
[09:17] <TiG4> **** I can't get rhythmbox to play this stream... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33784/   Can someone tryit out, any ideas? **
[09:18] <sauvin> I've been sticking to the official repos hoping that what somedrew said is very operative. So far, I've had zero trouble.
[09:18] <Rubin> sauvin, thats a good idea too
[09:18] <shiester_miester> when I click on a launcher in gdesklets, the thing its supposed to launch doesn't work properly, but when I take the command from the launcher and paste it into a terminal, it works perfectly...whats with this?  how can I make the launcher work
[09:19] <sauvin> shiester_miester, you can probably edit that launcher.
[09:19] <skino> heya people.... i ws having issues with resolution on my laptop yesterday but now got it running at 1920x1200 but still can t get it to connect to my Dell 24" TFT is there anything special i need to do... cus when i use the tft it will load right through to login screen but u can see icons or menus ect
[09:19] <Rubin> shiester_miester, it could be that that thing needs you to be in a perticular path, or have some other environment there which exists in a shell but not in the launcher environment.
[09:19] <shiester_miester> err
[09:19] <shiester_miester> its just a wine program :/
[09:19] <Rubin> shiester_miester, oh. god knows then :)
[09:19] <sauvin> WINE might be a different proposition.
[09:20] <shiester_miester> sauvin, yeah, i know i can edit it.  i don't know what to edit it to though
[09:20] <shiester_miester> this is the command in the launcher wine explorer /desktop=foo,1024x768 /media/sda5/games/S.T.A.L.K.E.R.\ -\ Shadow\ of\ Chernobyl/bin/XR_3DA.exe -dsound -nodistort
[09:20] <Rubin> shiester_miester, theres a commandline for wine that runs a debug output window. maybe that would help?
[09:20] <shiester_miester> if i click on the launcher, the wine desktop comes up just fine but the program doesnt launch inside it
[09:20] <BlendArt> +r
[09:20] <TBZ> !compile
[09:20] <shiester_miester> whereas if i paste it into a command line, the wine desktop comes up and it runs
[09:20] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[09:21] <ProN00b> 
[09:21] <sauvin> Make the "start in directory..." field the same as the one you're in when you launch it from a term. You should also see somewhere the command line syntax used to launch your applet. Edit that to reflect what you type at the command line to launch it.
[09:21] <BlendArt> does anyone know what the +r flag on channels stand for?
[09:21] <Jork> Hello. I have secondary disk in my computer (/dev/sdb)  wich I like to write and save files on and I don't know how to propartly format it.Can enybody help me? Thnx
[09:21] <sauvin> BlendArt, I think it means only registered folks can join.
[09:21] <BlendArt> sauvin: thanks
[09:22] <sauvin> Jork, that's an easy question to answer but you need to be clearer about exactly how you want to use it.
[09:22] <shiester_miester> sauvin, the command in the launcher is IDENTICAL to what works fine in the terminal
[09:22] <Rubin> jork: first you need to partition it, using something like parted. then make a filesystem on it like ext3 using mkfs.ext3, then mount it
[09:22] <Jork> Rubin How can I do that?
[09:22] <arooni_> what do i need to run an exe ?
[09:22] <arooni_> i have ubuntu 7.04
[09:22] <arooni_> how can i dot his
[09:22] <somedrew> shiester_miester, just guessing here...but what about putting that command into a script and launching the script from the menu?
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> arooni_: wine
[09:23] <Rubin> night all
[09:23] <somedrew> nigt
[09:23] <sauvin> arooni, that depends on what environment the exe expects.
[09:23] <arooni_> sauvin, its the efax.com fax viewer
[09:24] <shiester_miester> somedrew, err
[09:24] <sauvin> Is it for DOS or Windows?
[09:24] <shiester_miester> somedrew, seems like a really roundabout way of doing something

[09:24] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[09:25] <shiester_miester> arooni, why would i want to do that
[09:25] <arooni_> you woudln't want to download it
[09:25] <arooni_> but i need it
[09:25] <shiester_miester> i dont want to download anything for windows :/

[09:26] <arooni_> shiester_miester, efax.com
[09:26] <vlt> Hello. I just upgraded from Ubuntu Edgy (which was a fresh install with upstart) to Feisty using aptitude. Now the system only boots to runlevel "unknown". I always have to login and run `telinit 3` (sic!) to start all the daemons and the dm. `telinit 2` results in `runlevel` => "unknown", too. What is missing here?
[09:26] <shiester_miester> and why do I want to use that website :/
[09:26] <mudit> hey how to add start up programs without going thru GUI ?
[09:26] <Avielus> how do I enable my Nvidia driver in xorg.conf?
[09:26] <arooni_> shiester_miester, you dont, i do! ;p
[09:27] <seanj> Avielus: have you tried System -> Administration -> Restricted drivers manager?
[09:27] <sauvin> Jork, you DO have a partition free, yes?
[09:28] <mudit> how to add start up programs without going thru GUI ?
 Yes
[09:28] <Avielus> what should I be doing there? It's enabled, and in use, but my graphics don't work for much other than casual use at all.
[09:28] <vlt> mudit: /etc/rc*.d/ <= You can place a symlink to the program here.
[09:28] <seanj> Avielus: sorry :( that's all I know
[09:28] <shiester_miester> arooni_, so err, why dont you download it
[09:28] <Avielus> oh, kay :(
[09:28] <sauvin> Jork, can you identify it from linux what its device might be? Example: the first partition on my first hard drive is /dev/hda1
[09:28] <arooni_> shiester_miester, cuz i didnt know if ic ould run it
[09:28] <arooni_> once i downloaded it... since its a setup .exe
[09:28] <mudit> thanks vlt
[09:29] <sauvin> vlt, does ANY file appearing in that directory get executed?
 Mine is /dev/hda1 and hda 2 second disk is /dev/sdb
[09:30] <sauvin> Jork, I'm asking you to be REALLY certain about your identification. /dev/sdb would be the SECOND scsi hard drive on your computer.
[09:30] <vlt> sauvin: Don't know if there are nay naming conventions like it has to begin with "S" to start and "K" for kill (or vice versa) ...
[09:30] <vlt> s/nay/any/
 yes /dev/sdb is second scsi hard drive on my computer
[09:30] <sauvin> Does it matter which of the rc*.d directories it appears in?
[09:31] <fiction> does anyone know the command for changing the background?
[09:31] <sauvin> Jork, and that second scsi hard drive is already partitioned for you?
[09:31] <vlt> sauvin: It depends on the runlevel you want the program to be started. Ubuntu's default is 2.
[09:31] <somedrew> sauvin, Depends on what you want, for most things runlevel 2 is s'ok (for X). The only exception is rc.s for root apps
[09:32] <abuyazan> how to convert avi files to 3gp in ubuntu
[09:32] <sauvin> Ah, so r* means "runlevel". What, in a nutshell, is "runlevel"?
[09:32] <vlt> sauvin: There's an rcS.d/ for runlevel "S" (that's the "single" mode appearing in GRUB menu)
 I parititioned it with gparted on ext3 but I can't write or save files on it
[09:32] <sauvin> 3gp? Waddat?
[09:33] <Avielus> 3gp files are for some portable player or another, I believe
[09:33] <somedrew> sauvin, just a pre-defined "space" for certain apps to run in. Runlevel 2 is for X for Debian (for other distros it's runlevel 5). If I recall correctly: runlevel 1 is for single-user mode, 6 is for reboot (or shutdown)
[09:33] <joakim> sauvin, runlevel determines when you can run certain commands
[09:33] <sauvin> Jork, what is the fully qualified device for that partition? /dev/sdb1, or /dev/sdb2, or...?
[09:33] <abuyazan> 3gp is for nokia mobile
 dev/sdb
[09:34] <joakim> when you boot up failsafe you're on a lower runlevel than when you boot normally
[09:34] <wellu> howdy!
[09:34] <pawan> hello
[09:34] <sauvin> Jork, you want to use the ENTIRE SECOND HARD DRIVE?
[09:34] <shiester_miester> arooni_, run the exe with wine, you should be able to
 /dev/sdb1
[09:34] <sauvin> THAT's better.
 sorry mistake
[09:34] <arooni_> shiester_miester, really?  where will i tell it to install to?
[09:34] <arooni_> do i need a ntfs partition>
[09:34] <shiester_miester> wherever you want?
 yes I want to use entire second hard drive
[09:34] <sauvin> I won't be sorry if we make a mistake, but you're gonna wind up with a funny look on your face if you trash something you wanted to keep.
[09:34] <joakim> arooni, it will install in ~/.wine/drive_c for example
[09:35] <alexnick> Something's wrong with my package installer!
[09:35] <vlt> Any idea why my system doesn't enter runlevel 2 after booting (there's no /etc/inittab and no "single" in /proc/cmdline).
[09:35] <somedrew> arooni, nope, no need to have it on NTFS
[09:35] <shiester_miester> arooni_, no, I've installed lots of windows apps to ext3 partitions.  the whole point of wine is that things like filesystems are transparent to the apps themselves, wine takes care of tricking them into thinking they are running on windows
[09:35] <phenom> Has any one seen/heard of any problems installing fluxbox dev on ubuntu? Comments, concerns? :)
[09:35] <alexnick> I get this "E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[09:35] <wers> what sound recorder app for my mic is available for ubuntu?
[09:35] <MrStonedOne> why cant i get wine now that im on 64bit =\
[09:35] <vlt> I just upgraded from Edgy to Feisty.
[09:35] <MrStonedOne> err
[09:35] <wers> how do I record sounds using a mic?
[09:35] <MrStonedOne> with atp
[09:35] <fiction> does anyone know the command for changing the background?
[09:35] <MrStonedOne> apt-get*
[09:35] <kuzmaster> is anyone here running their own DNS server?
[09:36] <joakim> you can MrStonedOne, you just need the right repo
[09:36] <vlt> kuzmaster: a public one?
[09:36] <somedrew> vlt: not sure, I use inittab myself...but Ubuntu has rolled out their upstart init system which makes things a lot different (I've stuck to old-school init scripts)
[09:36] <arooni_> shiester_miester, wine makes windows drunk ;p?
[09:36] <joakim> google for wine amd64 ubuntu MrStonedOne
[09:36] <arooni_> what does wine stand for?
[09:36] <MrStonedOne> k
[09:36] <joakim> maybe add repo or repository
[09:36] <kuzmaster> no, like for themselves
[09:36] <benanzo> Not currently, but think about it.  I'm getting tired of syncing hosts files between all my machines
[09:36] <sauvin> jork, have you tried to get gparted to format that partition for you?
[09:36] <shiester_miester> it stands for "Wine Is Not an Emulator"
[09:36] <somedrew> arooni, Wine is not an emulator
[09:37] <alexnick> i need to repair package manger. i hit xkill on an install of virtualbox and now it won't work.
[09:37] <arooni_> what is it then
[09:37] <arooni_> if its not an emualtior
[09:37] <MrStonedOne> apt-get -f install
[09:37] <shiester_miester> its a compatibility layer
[09:37] <MrStonedOne> its a windows 'layer'
[09:37] <vlt> somedrew: It was a fresh Edgy install, so there should be no leftovers from inittab. I can't see any error when booting (disabled "quiet" and "splash" in kernel cmdline).
[09:37] <shiester_miester> it translates requests to windows into requests to linux
 yes I formated it with gparted to ext3 /dev/sdb1 but problem is that I can't save files on it
[09:37] <seanj> wow, Nexuiz is awesome
[09:37] <alexnick> all I get as a result is:
[09:37] <alexnick> apt-get -f install
[09:37] <Ryan52> I have 2 ethernet cards and neither of them will connect. Ther're both plugged into my routers but the lights aren't on. I ran lspci and it listed both of my ethernet controllers. What can I do to fix this?
[09:38] <sauvin> Jork, are you mounting it?
[09:38] <somedrew> vlt, I'm really not good with Upstart...but what runlevel are you booting into? Can you get X?
 yes
[09:38] <evri2> Guys,do you have seek problem in VLC while playing flv files?
[09:38] <alexnick> I mean: E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[09:38] <joakim> Ryan52, first of all, connect only one, unplug the other one if possible. if you dont get any lights what so ever on neither of them they both might be broken
[09:38] <MrStonedOne> try apt-get clean
[09:38] <sauvin> Jork, what result do you get when you try to save files to it?
[09:38] <MrStonedOne> then update
[09:39] <Ryan52> I tried that and it didn't work
[09:39] <joakim> Ryan52, so try with one at a time to see whether they actually are broken or not
[09:39] <MrStonedOne> then install -f
[09:39] <joakim> do you have some kind of diagnostic tool?
[09:39] <Ryan52> no
 hm... I can't copy paste files on disk
[09:39] <joakim> did you buy the comp from say dell or hp or something?
[09:39] <shiester_miester> seanj, yeah nexuiz kicks ass
[09:39] <seanj> :))
[09:39] <joakim> call the network card manufacturer otherwise
[09:39] <alexnick> Gahh nothing is working :(
[09:39] <Ryan52> okay, thanks
[09:39] <seanj> shiester_miester: my name in-game is node357
[09:39] <kuzmaster> anyone here running their own dns server for their selves?
[09:39] <seanj> maybe I'll play you sometime
[09:39] <sauvin> Jork, does it say WHY?
and lock button is showed
 No
[09:40] <sauvin> !@#$@%# GUI.
[09:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gui. - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:40] <jr> how do i unrar a .rar?
[09:40] <sauvin> Jork, I think you may have a permissions problem.
[09:40] <sauvin> jr, you need to download an unrar package.
[09:40] <shiester_miester> winrar is good
[09:40] <shiester_miester> although you need to use wine
[09:40] <maxxism> jr fileroller should do it if you have unrar installed.
[09:40] <sauvin> Forget winrar.
[09:40] <jr> they got winrar for rar?
[09:40] <jr> linux
[09:41] <Superkuh> sudo apt-get unrar
 Probably you wright.But How can I Fix this?
[09:41] <vlt> somedrew: After booting nearly no daemons are running. `netstat -tulpen`, for ex., only returns one line for dhclient. `runlevel` returns "unknown". When running `telinit 2` nothing happens and `runlevel` still returns "unknown". I have to run `telinit 3` (sic!) to get sshd or kdm running ... Any idea?
[09:41] <sauvin> using the GUI? I have no idea.
[09:41] <joakim> Ryan52, you could also try at net boot and see if the link lights at the back of the card goes on. if not, then they're probably broken or bios cant find them. try to restore bios to default settings (usually hold down power button for 10 seconds when no power source is plugged in (ac adapter, battery)
[09:41] <jr> Superkuh, done
[09:41] <sauvin> Can somebody help Jork figure out how to mount a partition for RW access using the GUI?
[09:41] <Superkuh> unrar has no gui, but the -h help menu is easy.
[09:41] <joakim> archive manager kinda is the gui for unrar
[09:42] <joakim> well it can be at least
[09:42] <sauvin> unrar is easy to use. unrar x mydownloadedstuff.rar
[09:42] <jr> Superkuh, what do i type to unrar ? unrar file.zip?
[09:42] <jr> Superkuh, what do i type to unrar ? unrar file.rar?
[09:42] <joakim> unrar file.RAR
[09:42] <maxxism> jr I think once you install unrar the normal archiver hui knows how to use it.
[09:42] <jr> yea
[09:42] <joakim> .zip is not rar
[09:42] <jr> soz :P
[09:42] <sauvin> You have to specify e or x.
[09:42] <jr> maxxism, kk
[09:42] <jr> yeh file roller got it done

[09:43] <allbert> #1 SMP Fri Aug 3 00:50:37 GMT 2007
[09:43] <vm63310> hi all! So, is Gutsy newer than Feisty? A devel branch or what?
[09:43] <allbert> Linux linuxgeeks.us 2.6.22-9-generic #1 SMP Fri Aug 3 00:50:37 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[09:43] <somedrew> vlt, uh-oh...runlevel 'unknown' can never be good. Have you tried passing init 2 to grub? Apart from that, doing a search for "upstart runlevels" will hopefully point you to the file responsible
[09:43] <joakim> gutsy is the new version of ubuntu, 7.10 vm63310
[09:44] <joakim> coming in october, (thus 7.10)
[09:44] <Jork> :/
[09:44] <vm63310> joakim: Ok, so it is considered beta as of now...
[09:44] <kuzmaster> anyone here running their own dns server for their selves?
[09:44] <joakim> not even
[09:44] <joakim> alpha
[09:44] <rbanff1> When a given release of Eclipse misbehaves (seemingly can't find updates) on Ubuntu/Gutsy, what is the best channel to ask questions?
[09:45] <joakim> #eclipse maybe?
[09:45] <somedrew> vlt, all I can guess is that it's definately not booting into the proper run level and that's why none of the daemons are getting executed. As to how to modify the default one...I'm really not sure with upstart, sorry. But the answer is out there somewhere
[09:45] <kauer> kuzmaster: yes.
[09:45] <kuzmaster> kauer: excellent, how difficult is it?
[09:45] <rbanff1> joakim: But it works fine under Feisty
[09:45] <sauvin> Eclipse seems to be something of a problem child; it didn't play well with Fedora Core, either.
[09:45] <kuzmaster> to set it up and maintain it?
[09:45] <kauer> kuzmaster: How long is a piece of string?
[09:46] <joakim> could be because gutsy is alpha rbanff1..
[09:46] <kuzmaster> ok, i get your point :P
[09:46] <rbanff1> joakim: My Feisty notebook got stolen today. I am stuck, for now, with a Gutsy one.
[09:46] <joakim> and the version of eclipse for alpha might be alpha too
[09:46] <sauvin> A piece of string is precisely rand(RANDMAX) * sqrt(-1).
[09:46] <kuzmaster> kauer: its just that im looking of running one myself, and i want to know what im up for
[09:46] <joakim> sad to hear that rbanff1
[09:46] <kauer> sauvin: Thank you. I have made a note of that.
[09:47] <sauvin> kauer, I was JOKING, you know that, right?
[09:47] <kauer> kuzmaster: If you are just runnng DNS for a single small zone, it's not that hard, Having your server open to the Internet is a possible problem though, especiallyif the DNS service is in a machine used for other stuff... i.e. your homecomputer or something
[09:47] <kauer> sauvin: Yes.
[09:48] <sherkin> Hi there :)
[09:48] <shiester_miester> sauvin, and alternative definition for the length or size of something is to do this:
[09:48] <wers> what's the best alternative to audacity
[09:48] <wers> ?
[09:48] <shiester_miester> |<----------------------------->|      (not to scale)
[09:48] <dgrant> anyone else having trouble accessing ubuntu.moshen.de?
[09:48] <somedrew> wers: ardour
[09:48] <sauvin> shiester_miester, hee hee, I like that!
[09:48] <sherkin> Could somebody help me to install emacs 22 un ubuntu feisty ?
[09:48] <wers> thanks, somedrew :)
[09:49] <kauer> shiester_miester: yeah, but that's YOUR piece of string. Mine is significantly longer.
[09:49] <kuzmaster> kauer: well the only machines using it would be used by no more than 10 home networked computers
[09:49] <shiester_miester> its not just a piece of string, kauer
[09:49] <shiester_miester> its for ANYTHING
[09:49] <wers> is there a "Windows Movie Maker" alternative for Ubuntu?
[09:49] <kauer> kuzmeister: So it's a local server only?
[09:49] <Superkuh> I've been thinking about using djbdns dnscache for that.
[09:49] <shiester_miester> wers, you could run it in a VM
[09:49] <sauvin> |<----------------- { rand ( RANDMAX) * sqrt(-1) } ------------------>|
[09:49] <somedrew> sherkin, here's a post from the forums that gives a few ways of doing it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482440
[09:49] <wers> my laptop can't run a VM
[09:49] <shiester_miester> lol
[09:50] <wers> I want to go purely linux
[09:50] <kauer> wers: There's kino, but is doesn't seem to understand many formats, so you'd be converting/importing stuff to edit.
[09:50] <terapicodave> wers, kino is what i use
[09:50] <shiester_miester> sauvin, kauer, http://bash.org/?8209
[09:50] <sherkin> thks somedrew :)
[09:50] <joakim> wers, ManDVD or one of those programs?
[09:50] <maxxism> wers you actually use windows movie maker?
[09:50] <somedrew> wers, ardour might be overkill if you only need to work with one track at a time...but the effects are non-destructive which is a really good bonus.
[09:50] <joakim> there's a bunch of them.. check kde-apps.org, they're top score there
[09:50] <somedrew> sherkin, no worries. Post back if you have any problems
[09:51] <rbanff1> joakim: I know. Thanks. Anyway, piling up alpha release on top of alpha release will most probably result in a exeedingly adventurous setup. I will probably have to go the Feisty route
[09:51] <kuzmaster> kauer: so it would be easy enough to set it up for 10 home networked computers
[09:51] <sherkin> somedrew: in fact it what I did yesterday, but my install is buggy
[09:51] <kuzmaster> (the DNS server will be on the same network as the computers)
[09:51] <sherkin> I've some problems with load-path
[09:52] <somedrew> sherkin, don't have it installed myself. Could it just be the app itself? Did you compile it or use the Debian repos?
[09:52] <kauer> kuzmaster: I'm not sure I see the point, though. Would you set it up as a recursive server so that it could still answer queries for non-local domains? I suppose it would help with caching, but your ISP has a much bigger cache....
[09:52] <sherkin> I compiled, from /usr/local/share/emacs-22-1
[09:52] <kauer> kusmaster: It's not the number of computers that matters, really...
[09:52] <wers> E: Couldn't find package ardour
[09:53] <wers> isnt ardour in the repos?
[09:53] <joakim> wers, http://www.gnomefiles.org/category.php?cat_id=12
[09:53] <joakim> video tools cat on gnomefiles
[09:53] <kuzmaster> kauer: but it would still work right? its mainly just somthing for me to do for experiance
[09:53] <sherkin> I guess I should have added some option to configure
[09:53] <joakim> should be something there
[09:53] <vlt> somedrew: hmmm, I'll try to google for upstart. No one awake in #upstart atm. Thanks.
[09:53] <somedrew> vlt, sorry I couldn't be more help, it's probably a trivial fix though
[09:54] <kel_> A while ago i was able to connect to the internet with live cd's (default settings) now it doesnt even connect (although i can ping sites). internet also works if i boot back into windows any ideas?
[09:54] <somedrew> sherkin, not too familiar with emacs (vi...heh). Perhaps it can be configured either via the ./configure script...or by settings prefs?
[09:55] <somedrew> vlt: good news is that Ubuntu wrote Upstart...so help will be there
[09:55] <sauvin> kel, some of that may depend on your local network setup.
[09:55] <maxxism> ardour in the repos is old.
[09:55] <shiester_miester> kel, how do you connect?
[09:55] <vlt> somedrew: here or in #upstart?
[09:56] <somedrew> maxxism, there's either the option to compile from source or check out the version in UbuntuStudios repo
[09:56] <vlt> somedrew: or rather "somewhere" ...
[09:56] <sherkin> somedrew: Iwhat about https://bugs.launchpad.net/feisty-backports/+bug/120905 ?
[09:56] <somedrew> vlt, devs don't really frequent here. #upstart would be the best place (when someone's there)
[09:56] <maxxism> somedrew thanx
[09:57] <sherkin> the link http://ppa.dogfood.launchpad.net/siretart  seems dead
[09:57] <kauer> kuzmaster: Oh yes... in fact you can set up a caching-only server most easily, with no local zones, which will just asnwer quesries on behalf of your local machines, caching the answers. You can add a zone later. A cahing server is really just a recursive server with no zones...
[09:57] <somedrew> maxxism, I think that Ubuntu Studio has a newer release there
[09:57] <maxxism> somedrew is ardour similar to ableton live?
[09:57] <somedrew> maxxism, not familiar with ableton live. Ardour is a sweet multitrack editor though with the best dam mixer on the market
[09:57] <sherkin> ... not dead, but fails sto load packages.gz
[09:58] <maxxism> somedrew i am gonna try it.   thanx
[09:58] <kuzmaster> kauer: i see... Sorry for being a pain but what is a recursive server and what are zones?
[09:59] <openorigin> hello all, i am using feisty, how to boot into command line directly ( i dont want display manager)??
[10:00] <kauer> kuzmaster: Oh dear.
[10:00] <kuzmaster> :P
[10:00] <somedrew> sherkin, looks like it has been backported. Should just be a few days until it finds it way to the repos I believe
[10:00] <Durmant> hello all
[10:00] <kauer> kuzmaster: Read up on servers and confuring them, you need a basic level of understanding of the DNS...
[10:01] <kuzmaster> kauer: yeah, i am atm
[10:01] <kuzmaster> :p
[10:01] <sherkin> I hope so ... Thks somedrew
[10:01] <kauer> kuzmaster: I don't mean to be insulting,. A day or two of research will get you up to speed...
[10:01] <somedrew> sherkin, it *should*. Everythings ok for it to get released. Have you tried the test version on that page?
[10:01] <Durmant> Im having an issue getting gsynaptics running......does anybody have a bunch of experience with it?
[10:01] <sWiff> is there any reason DHCP would work in Windows but not in Linux ??
[10:01] <kuzmaster> kauer: bah yeah im not insulted by it :P and i can see where you are comming from
[10:01] <vlt> openorigin: You could move the startup script for your dm to another runlevel.
[10:01] <sherkin> somedrew : I'm not sure I configured sources.list correctly seeing it ...
[10:02] <openorigin> vlt:how to do it?
[10:02] <vlt> openorigin: man mv
[10:02] <openorigin> vlt: ok
[10:03] <somedrew> sherkin, here's the direct link. You'll need to look for the right .deb though: http://ppa.dogfood.launchpad.net/siretart/ubuntu/pool/main/e/emacs22/
[10:03] <kauer> swiff: What is the actual problem?
[10:03] <somedrew> sherkin, and can just install with a 'dpkg -i'...beats configuring your sources.list just for one package
[10:04] <sherkin> :-) that sounds nice
[10:04] <sWiff> kauer, i can connect str8 out of the box with windows but cannot do it with live cd's and i used to be able to
[10:04] <Ayabara> Anyone know how to setup a tftp server on ubuntu? I have installed tftpd, but don't know what else to do :-)
[10:05] <solekiller> say
[10:05] <solekiller> ubuntu ppl
[10:05] <vlt> openorigin: The longer version: /etc/rc2.d/S???dm should be a symlink to a start script in /etc/init.d/ -- So you can completely remove the symlink from rc2 or move it to rc3, for ex.
[10:05] <sherkin> Will it deal with dependencies ok ?
[10:06] <openorigin> vlt: ok
[10:06] <solekiller> humz
[10:07] <solekiller> can anybody help me out here?
[10:07] <solekiller> wehere the hell is the kernel sources dir?

[10:08] <Digit9> Well, I found out why Xubuntu wouldn't partition my drive correctly
[10:08] <somedrew> Durmant, you've added "SHMConfig" "on" to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:08] <Durmant> Ive done that
[10:08] <Digit9> It auto mounted my drive, and made it so the installer couldn't unmount it
[10:09] <Durmant> ive tried on, true, yes
[10:09] <Durmant> none work
[10:09] <alexnick> What command can I run to find out what sort of processor I have?
[10:09] <somedrew> Durmant, hmmm....that's funny because some one else had that same problem. I'm not sure what's going on. Have you restarted X? Either a reboot or restarting X?
[10:09] <somedrew> Durmant, there may be something going on here if so
[10:09] <Durmant> ya many times....
[10:09] <inc0> hello all

[10:10] <alexnick> Thank you sauvin.
[10:10] <somedrew> Durmant, there have been a few posts on the forums about this....it may be a real bug. Sorry, can't help (i've tried it with some other people) but a bug report would be worthwile after due searching
[10:11] <DFM> Is this channel logged? If so where can I find the logs?
[10:12] <alexnick> Goodbye, all.
[10:12] <Durmant> ya ive been searching for a couple days....get the same stuff....really there is only one feature I want......the side scroll....where it uses the right side of the pad as a scroll wheel
[10:12] <Durmant> is there anyway to enable that option without the programs
[10:12] <somedrew> Durmant: i can give you my configs with that for my xorg.conf if you want to give it a shot
[10:13] <Durmant> ya that would be sweet....atleast give it a shor
[10:13] <Durmant> shot
[10:14] <kauer> swiff: You used to be able to from the livecd?
[10:14] <kauer> swiff: How do you know that it is a DHCP problem?
[10:16] <Durmant> going to pastebin?
[10:16] <somedrew> Durmant, here it is (the options under the touchpad section from my xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33786/
[10:16] <somedrew> Durmant, I noticed that I had to reduce the right border in order to allow the scrolling to work
[10:16] <Durmant> hmmm
[10:17] <Tu3sday> I just got my broadcom card working (BCM4306) but the network icon doesn't show me any statistics about signal strength or connection info, how do I get this feature?
[10:18] <rbanff1> Tu3sday: I got mine working with the Gutsy 2.6.22 kernel
[10:18] <Tu3sday> rbanff1, I am using Feisty :\
[10:19] <Tu3sday> how do you view your signal strength and connection information?
[10:19] <somedrew> 2.6.22 does have the new mac80211 stack...are you using different drivers for it though
[10:20] <vlt> Tu3sday: What driver do you use for the BCM4306?
[10:21] <ulisse> 'lo people!
[10:21] <Tu3sday> vlt, I followed this guide on ubuntuforums.org - it directs me to use "bcmwl5"
[10:21] <vlt> Tu3sday: You can try `iwlist scan` but I don't know if signal strength is supported by ndiswrapper.
[10:21] <Tu3sday> vlt, yea I just have no idea how good this connection is heh
[10:22] <Tu3sday> under winxp i was getting an alright connection, decided to try it with ubuntu
[10:22] <vlt> Tu3sday: `iwconfig` should tell you, too.
[10:22] <ulisse> every time I start EOG, it takes ages to come up and give this warning in the terminal: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[10:22] <Durmant> here goes nothin
[10:23] <TBZ> !make
[10:23] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)

[10:23] <Durmant> nope :-/
[10:23] <Durmant> oh well
[10:23] <somedrew> !make @ TBZ
[10:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about make @ tbz - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:24] <Tu3sday> I just got an idea, I can check my router, I flashed it with DDWRT earlier!
[10:24] <Durmant> guess I will have to suffer
[10:24] <somedrew> Durmant, sorry. It seems like there IS something going on though as multiple people have reported the same issue. I'd suggest doing up a bug report
[10:24] <Durmant> im a noob.....how do i do that :-p
[10:25] <TBZ> so.. when you compile something, is there a way to configure / make / make install all in one line?
[10:25] <fiction> saw i have a file with spaces int he name
[10:25] <somedrew> Durmant, recently too...might be a newish update. Durmant if you go to ubuntuforums.org and look at the beginner section, there's a sticky post showing you how to do it
[10:25] <fiction> how would i type it in the terminal?
[10:25] <fiction> to open
[10:25] <Durmant> awesome, thanks
[10:25] <Tu3sday> Durmant, you can file bugs here too: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug/+login
[10:25] <somedrew> fiction either use quotes or escape the spaces with a '\'
[10:26] <Ayabara> where can I setup who is allowed to ssh into my computer?
[10:27] <somedrew> Ayabara, could be in your ssh config or your /etc/hosts.allow
[10:27] <fiction> somedrew: thanks, ill try escaping. how would quotes be used though?
[10:27] <fiction> like sudo gedit /path/to/"january reports 2007.png"
[10:27] <fiction> ?
[10:28] <somedrew> fiction: sudo gedit "/path/to/january reports 2007.png"
[10:28] <sauvin> Wny would you want to gedit a png file!?
[10:28] <fiction> somedrew: thansk
[10:29] <somedrew> fiction. tab completion is good too. just start the name of the file and press tab...it'll either complete it (with the quotes/escape" or pressing TAB again will let you see all the options
[10:29] <kauer> swiff:? are you still interested in answers?
[10:29] <fiction> somedrew: alright thanks man
[10:30] <somedrew> ficton, glad to help\
[10:32] <Tu3sday> anyone know any tricks to raise link quality? (besides moving closer to the wireless router... lol)
[10:33] <dane2> Error: Failed to satisfy all dependencies (broken cashe) <------is this a common error ona  .deb file through package installer when using ubuntu, if the file was downloaded from packages.ubuntu.com?
[10:33] <somedrew> Tu3sday, depending on what band you're operating on: get rid of cordless phones from the line of sight between router to com
[10:33] <Lo_Pan> Tu3sday: bigger antennas
[10:34] <neol> i'm trying to install avant navigator on ubuntu 7.04, but its asking to download around 143 MB of upgrade, isnt their a other way of isntalling avant windows navigator to be installed without downloading so much of contents, any ideas ?
[10:34] <Tu3sday> somedrew, ok will do
[10:34] <sauvin> somedrew, why didn't you use synaptics?
[10:34] <Tu3sday> Lo_Pan, that sounds expensive ^_^
[10:34] <somedrew> sauvin, for the touchpad? I'm using the synaptics driver, but it's an Alps touchpad
[10:35] <Tu3sday> do any channels work better than others? default on the route was channel 6
[10:35] <Tu3sday> router*
[10:35] <sauvin> somewdrew, you are not aware that ubuntu has something called "synaptic package manager"?
[10:35] <neol> any other possibility of isntalling avant navigator ??
[10:35] <somedrew> Tu3sday, depending on if your phone and router are on the same frequency (can happen) it'll definately be causing interference
[10:35] <Tu3sday> somedrew, ok thx that's definitely good to know
[10:35] <somedrew> sauvin, yup. What's this about. I prefer aptitude myself
[10:36] <neol> can anyone help me isntalling avant navigator on ubuntu please. ?
[10:36] <kauer> Tu3sday: anything operating on the same band will interfere - get cordless phones on another band if you can. Microwaves and other noisy sources will cause problems too. Also, paradoxically, if you are *too close* you can have problems. Aim for at least a metre between antennas. Bigger and better antennas help, and you should also experiment with antenna positioning and even access point positioning (not that useful if you move your lapt
[10:36] <flamesrock> I'm wondering if anyone can help me with fstab?
[10:36] <Ayabara> somedrew, thanks. my /etc/hosts.allow is empty. just gotta figure out what that means :-)
[10:36] <neol> flamesrock: what do u want ?
[10:36] <flamesrock> I want to be able to modify/view files in a directory as a user
[10:36] <flamesrock> so far I can mount the volume
[10:37] <flamesrock> async,nodev,nosuid,user,rw,noauto,umask=0000,noexec
[10:37] <flamesrock> maybe I need to change the permissions of the folder?
[10:37] <neol> flamesrock: and not as root ??
[10:37] <Tu3sday> kauer, yea no lappy, using a desktop so it won't be moving much.  Im in an apartment and there's a large dry-wall in between me and the other end of the apartment where my roommate has the buffalo router
[10:37] <flamesrock> as a regular user
[10:37] <somedrew> Ayabara, it's a give and take between hosts.allow and hosts.deny. There are plenty of guides around the net on how to set it up....but the hosts.allow and hosts.deny work together, so basically you are not allowing anyone that you've denied in hosts.deny
[10:38] <maxxism> flamesrock yeah sudo -s for a root shell.   then use chown and chgrp and chmod.  to modify perms
[10:38] <flamesrock> ahh k tx
[10:38] <flamesrock> I'll try that
[10:38] <Tu3sday> kauer, im getting ok quality, iwconfig wlan0 outputs 45/100 link quality, which is stable enough for a connection, but not quite fast for downloading updates
[10:39] <Tu3sday> buying 75 feet of ethernet cat5 cables strikes me as a rather expensive alternative :(
[10:39] <somedrew> Tu3sday, you can also take a look at your signal/noise ratio (larger negative noise values are always good)
[10:39] <maxxism> 75 ft of cat5e should be 20 bux
[10:40] <kauer> Tu3sday: can you run a wire? 75 feet won't cost much, and you can go straight through the drywall. a dollar's worth of spakfiller will fix the hole later...
[10:40] <Tu3sday> best buy wanted like $65
[10:40] <Tu3sday> prolly running me around heh
[10:40] <CerebroJD> lame
[10:40] <J-_> woah
[10:40] <kauer> Tu3sday: why 75ft? Its in the next room, right?
[10:40] <maxxism> any local small computer shops should sell for less
[10:40] <CerebroJD> just get a 200ft roll, cut what you need, and crimp headers on to it
[10:40] <neol> can someone help me install avant window navigator. ?
[10:41] <rohan> how do i get a module to load on every startup ?
[10:41] <Tu3sday> kauer, the apartment is pretty big, there's my room, a big living room, then the other bedroom on the far side
[10:41] <maxxism> best buy rarely has good pricing and selection on computer stuff
[10:41] <Ayabara> somedrew, seems that /etc/ssh/sshd_config also may have something to say
[10:41] <Tu3sday> but his room is the only one with the coaxial wall outlet :(
[10:41] <Irreducibilis> best buy overcharges for junk
[10:41] <somedrew> Ayabara, yup, absolutely
[10:41] <Tu3sday> where do you guys order your wires from? $20 is a great price!
[10:41] <CerebroJD> Tu3sday, is the access point in the middle of the apartment?
[10:42] <Tu3sday> CerebroJD, nah it's in the corner of his bedroom on his desk lol :(
[10:42] <somedrew> Tu3sday, newegg is pretty good for prices
[10:42] <CerebroJD> I'd suggest moving the communal router to a more central location
[10:42] <maxxism> tuesday you are in an apartment and want to run cables?
[10:42] <neol> rohan: if u wanna start any apps at startup then, System -> Preferences -> session, then add the new apps u want.
[10:42] <Tu3sday> i'll do what I can lol
[10:42] <Tu3sday> i want all the bandwidth im paying for
[10:43] <TBZ> Hey guys, I'm trying to compile something first time around, I have read info pertaining it but can not get it to work right. First, can someone explain ./configure? When I "./configure" I get "./configure: No such file or directory"
[10:43] <maxxism> Tu3sday  is the heating in the apartment run of radiant heat?
[10:43] <sauvin> TBZ, you have to navigate (in a terminal) to the directory containing the Configure file.
[10:43] <TBZ> I'm there..
[10:43] <Tu3sday> not sure, this is florida, we don't use heat much except late november-january
[10:43] <somedrew> TBZ, some programs don't use the ./configure script. There should be an INSTALL/README file in the archive that expains how to compile and install
[10:43] <Tu3sday> it's never on, which answers your question :p
[10:43] <maxxism> oh ok then
[10:44] <Tu3sday> i appreciate the input, gonna scour newegg :)
[10:44] <maxxism> Tu3sday  i was going to suggest a way to run the cable.
[10:44] <somedrew> It's pretty good if you're in the States
[10:44] <rohan> how do i get a kernel module to load on every startup ?
[10:45] <somedrew> rohan, add it to /etc/modules
[10:45] <skino> can any one tell me how to "set up" OpenGL correctly for Ubuntu.
[10:45] <maxxism> skino depends on your video card make
[10:45] <Irreducibilis> nVidia?
[10:45] <rohan> thanks somedrew
[10:46] <skino> yes Nvidia
[10:46] <TBZ> Ok, I'm trying to install "nostromo" which is a usb2key thingy, on the site, it says "tar xvfz nostromo_driver-0.1.3.tar.gz cd nostromo  make     - or - make gl     - or - make algl"
[10:46] <TBZ> which to use?
[10:46] <Tu3sday> maxxism, I was thinking if I decide to go that route I could (do my best to) run it along the edge of the wall and maybe drill near my door so the door can open/close normally
[10:47] <skino> my GFX card is an Nvidia 7900GS
[10:47] <Irreducibilis> Is there a way to install ubuntu from the LiveCD and be able to choose the size of your partition?
[10:47] <maxxism> skino there is tons of guides for nvidia cards on ubuntu.  google it.
[10:47] <somedrew> Irreducibilis, yup: you can manually parition
[10:47] <Irreducibilis> okay
[10:48] <CodemasterMM> hey guys, how would i go about installing packages that are referenced by a virtual package?
[10:49] <CodemasterMM> ie - the postfix-tls package
[10:49] <sauvin> Is that package something you could download using synaptic?
[10:49] <TBZ> Okay, after I make a file, where is it placed? In same dir?
[10:50] <CodemasterMM> well, aptitude finds the package there, but i can't use synaptic as i am using the server version of ubuntu
[10:50] <somedrew> TBZ, yup (if you make install then the files will be installed into predetermined locations)
[10:50] <somedrew> TBZ, a make will just compile the app in the pwd
[10:51] <solekiller> can some one tell me what is a mimo wireless network adupter?
[10:51] <solekiller> i know it adds like 50$ to the purchs
[10:51] <ibt> solekiller: have you consulted wikipedia?
[10:51] <solekiller> oh
[10:51] <CodemasterMM> sauvin: but yeah, since i can't use synaptic, do you know how ?
[10:51] <solekiller> my bad
[10:52] <solekiller> only google
[10:52] <CodemasterMM> I try running a sudo aptitude install postfix-tls and that doesn't install the package[s]  referenced by it
[10:52] <CodemasterMM> or is there an aptitude or apt-get command i can run to see what it references
[10:52] <sauvin> have you tried sudo apt-get install <packagename> ?
[10:52] <CodemasterMM> yes
[10:52] <mr_bean> hello
[10:52] <maxxism> CodeMasterMM   "apt-get install packagename"
[10:52] <CodemasterMM> yes i did
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> let me try sudo aptitude show postfix-tls...
[10:53] <sauvin> You said APTITUDE, and he's saying APT-GET.
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> right, i tried both :)
[10:53] <sauvin> Mmkay.
[10:53] <maxxism> either should work
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> thanks though
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> ah, no wonder..
[10:53] <rohan> aptitude ftw
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> aptitude show postfix-tls says that it is provided by postfix
[10:53] <TBZ> so whats diff in "make" "makegl" and "make algl" ??
[10:53] <CodemasterMM> that makes more sense
[10:54] <solekiller> omg mimo is cool
[10:54] <somedrew> CodemasterMM, the dependencies for each app are mentioned within the .deb files themselve a naming thing could just be a virtual package pointing to something else
[10:54] <TBZ> *make gl*
[10:54] <CodemasterMM> right
[10:54] <CodemasterMM> makes sense
[10:54] <CodemasterMM> :) thanks
[10:54] <somedrew> TBZ, not sure about those various make commands....the package should document em
[10:55] <TBZ> the package doesn't...
[10:55] <TBZ> somedrew: are you on fiesty?
[10:55] <somedrew> TBZ, you can always tried the old, tested, and tru make then
[10:55] <somedrew> TBZ, not at the moment. Are you having problems pulling in postfix packages?
[10:56] <SoulChild> how do i deactivate selinux at boot ???
[10:56] <TBZ> somedrew: I'm getting various "warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function"
[10:56] <somedrew> TBZ, sorry, wrong person
[10:56] <scguy318> SoulChild: prob edit /etc/selinux/conf?
[10:57] <somedrew> TBZ, don't worry about those
[10:57] <scguy318> something like that prob
[10:57] <somedrew> TBZ, the only thing you need to worry about is an *ERROR*, *warnings* are ok...it referers to the coding of the actual app
[10:58] <SoulChild> scguy318: the folder /etc/selinux doeas not exsist
[10:58] <rausb0> SoulChild: put selinux=0 in the grub boot command line
[10:58] <maxxism> anyone else getting weird looking fonts in wine?
[10:59] <TBZ> ok, and i run with sh? says "usage:  ./glnostromo
[10:59] <SoulChild> rausb0: somewhere or behind  Ubuntu kernel line ?
[10:59] <scguy318> maxxism: install msttcorefonts
[10:59] <rausb0> SoulChild: as part of the kernel command line
[10:59] <TBZ> but... ../glnostromo does nothing
[10:59] <maxxism> scguy318 they are i think.
[10:59] <rausb0> SoulChild: after the keyword "quiet" for example
[11:00] <somedrew> TBZ, are you using the period there? ./glnostromo?
[11:00] <SoulChild> rausb0: ok, got ,... thank you
[11:00] <scguy318> rausb0 is correct, my mistake
[11:00] <dane2> is it possible to download an update package from one computer then transfer it over to another computer, possibly to use for a computer with a slow connection?
[11:00] <scguy318> dane2: yes
[11:00] <TBZ> somedrew: .glnostromo command not found
[11:00] <scguy318> TBZ: ./glnostromo
[11:00] <scguy318> like that
[11:00] <scguy318> else chmod +x?
[11:01] <TBZ> somedrew: ./glnostromo: No such file or directory
[11:01] <somedrew> TBZ, if you look around that directory...do you see the glnostromo directory?
[11:01] <maxxism> scguy318 your right they werent installed.  thanx
[11:01] <somedrew> TBZ, the glnostromo file, sorry
[11:02] <TBZ> somedrew: no... only nostromo
[11:02] <dane2> scguy318, so could I like, download the update package for ubuntu on a windows PC, put it on a flashdrive, then copy it from the flashdrive on my ubuntu PC and install it from there?
[11:02] <scguy318> dane2: yes
[11:02] <somedrew> TBZ, you could try ./nostromo then
[11:02] <Irreducibilis> my ubuntu doesnt recognise flash drives O_O
[11:02] <TBZ> somedrew: k, just did, and I guess it ran but it didn't do anything
[11:02] <dane2> scguy318, thanks alot :-)
[11:02] <scguy318> dane2: you can d/l the debs from packages.ubuntu.com
[11:02] <somedrew> TBZ, but if the executable is supposed to be called glnostromo...they may have been an issue during compilation
[11:02] <scguy318> dane2: then do sudo dpkg -i pkgname
[11:02] <scguy318> dane2: on the Ubuntu machine
[11:03] <Ramy> how i can open a 901 port ?
[11:04] <SoulChild> Hey bootchart says my machine boots in 29 sec with Gnome ;)
[11:04] <TBZ> somedrew: will you dl this and install it plz? so you can see for yourself so I can better understand? it's basically a usb2key thing so I can use gamepad, something I really need
[11:04] <dane2> yea I've tried to 'sudo dpkg -i' a few file packages but the 'dependence' don't satisfy due to (broken cache) and sometimes other reasons
[11:04] <vlt> dane2: You can install then using dpkg -i pkg.deb or put the deb files in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[11:04] <sahil> hey, can anyone tell me how to make my bottom panel look shiny and glossy black?
[11:04] <Tu3sday> what's the difference between 5E and 6 ethernet cables?
[11:04] <solekiller> are D-Link DWL-650 and D-Link DWL+650 the same?
[11:04] <scguy318> dane2: you'll probably have to obtain the dependencies also along with pkg
[11:04] <rausb0> Irreducibilis: type   dmesg   in a terminal window right after plugging the usb flash drive in and paste the last 15 lines or so on pastebin
[11:05] <rausb0> !pastebin > Irreducibilis
[11:05] <scguy318> Tu3sday: CAT6 is for gigabit ethernet i think
[11:05] <dane2> vlt, , using 'sudo mv' command?
[11:05] <Tu3sday> scguy318, oh ok thx, definetly don't need that heh
[11:05] <maxxism> cat5e will give gigabit too
[11:05] <scguy318> Ramy: where, and why?
[11:05] <scguy318> yes
[11:05] <vlt> dane2: Yes, this directory is writable for root only.
[11:06] <noiesmo> sahil, you should be able to set the panel background image then you need a shiny balck backround png
[11:06] <rausb0> solekiller: no, they aren't. there are even different types of DWL-650 (different hardware revisions).
[11:06] <solekiller> argh
[11:06] <solekiller> hate israelies
[11:06] <sahil> noiesmo do you know where to get it
[11:06] <rausb0> solekiller: the card manufacturers keep changing chipsets very fast
[11:06] <solekiller> they get all the cheap shiz imported
[11:06] <noiesmo> sahil, one sec
[11:06] <Ramy> scguy318 i want to enable swat, i did all the configuration but http://127.0.0.1:901/ does not work ?
[11:07] <sahil> noiesmo, no problem
[11:07] <Doomguy0505> does anyone know why there is only one kdevelop now?
[11:07] <Tu3sday> anyone know who sells ethernet wall plates? this could be a super cool home improvement project if I could put ethernet into the drywall! :)
[11:07] <scguy318> Ramy: check that the service is running?
[11:07] <Tu3sday> then I could tell ndiswrapper to go to h3ll lol
[11:08] <Ramy> scguy318 how i can check that ?
[11:08] <noiesmo> sahil, heres mine http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/images/taskbar.png
[11:08] <xpoint> Tu3sday, cat6 cables is for gigabit where cable length is important
[11:08] <scguy318> Ramy: actually check this post in the middle should be a suggestion http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=58434
[11:08] <sahil> noiesmo, so i save this image first and then i put it as a  background?
[11:08] <SoulChild> My system boots in 29 seconds,.. and you know why ?
[11:09] <finalbeta> Tu3sday: ... or, you could buy a card that doesn't need ndiswrapper
[11:09] <dane2> Tu3sday, you mean like have youe ethernet wires running through the walls like you're electic wire?
[11:09] <arvino> Hello can i get some help with my screen resolution i think its only 1024x768 but my laptop is designed to be 1920x1440 can anyone offer any suggestions, i have tried 915resolution but for some reason its not writing to my xorg.conf is it safe to just change the resolution in xorg.conf?
[11:09] <noiesmo> sahil, yes save the image to your home folder then edit the properties off the panel and set that image as background
[11:09] <scguy318> arvino: do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:09] <neol> what is the command to remove bluetooth adapter from usb ??
[11:09] <SoulChild> arvino: try: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:10] <Tu3sday> dane2, yea i mean i can run the cord around the entertainment center in the living room, but then maybe drill a whole in the drywall mid way down the hall - that would put it smack dab in the middle of my room :)
[11:10] <arvino> my card is an intel, hence there is no res of 1920x1440 written into the bios so that if i want higher resolution is must force it, have i been misled?
[11:10] <scguy318> force?
[11:10] <scguy318> no...
[11:10] <dangerko> hello pple
[11:11] <scguy318> arvino: do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, select the reses you wants, reboot X server
[11:11] <neol> how to eject / safely remove bluetooth from usb ??
[11:11] <arvino> ok i will try and be back
[11:11] <laskar> pejah
[11:11] <rausb0> arvino: i think 1920x1440 is beyond the hardware limits of the intel cards. you won't get that resolution even if you patch it into the bios.
[11:11] <sahil> noiesmo, is there a way to make the text stand out so that i can see it thru the blackness
[11:11] <rausb0> arvino: which particular intel gfx card is it?
[11:11] <kanedaddy> hello
[11:11] <dane2> Tu3sday, , ahh I see. I know when I worked construction and someone wants ethernet, we'd just run it throughout their entire house and have it coming out of the walls at different places, where they wanted it
[11:11] <arvino> its a 945gm\gu express
[11:12] <Tu3sday> dane2, yea difference here is the apartment is already built lol
[11:12] <noiesmo> sahil, maybe try adjusting the fonts in theme I dont worry to much about it i just alt + tab thru
[11:12] <Tu3sday> dane2, i think it'd be cool thing to show my friends if I had a wall plate tho haha
[11:13] <sahil> ok, thanks i will try that, is makes my desktop look damn nice
[11:13] <dane2> Tu3sday, yea that tends to suck :\ lol
[11:13] <rausb0> arvino: i think the i945GM can do 1600x1200 max. and only at 16bpp color depth. lower resolutions can have 24bpp.
[11:13] <rausb0> arvino: but i'm not 100% sure
[11:13] <arvino> hmm it must have been something else then, i swear it was a widescreen
[11:13] <noiesmo> sahil, cool :)
[11:13] <arvino> this problem revolves around the fact that my screen is blury at this res
[11:13] <dane2> Tu3sday, yea it would be pretty cool
[11:13] <Tu3sday> dane2, yea i dunno im just considering ideas right now because if I just drill a hole and peak the cable thru it's gonna look messy :S
[11:14] <SoulChild> Who wants to know why my system boots in 29 seconds ???
[11:14] <kanedaddy> you tell me ;)
[11:14] <dangerko> guy i have kaffiene and its work normal but when i start it a small window pop and said cant bind info sock what is this?
[11:14] <Ramy> scguy318 swat is not running i checked that by System -> Preferences -> sessions ?
[11:14] <rausb0> arvino: anyway, if you need to patch modes in the bios, you need to install the 915resolution package

[11:16] <nojoints> Hello, got a strange problem, I mounted my ntfs partitions with ntfs3-g, when I booted my computer up this morning I got two harddrives with nearly same name, only different is that the other one has (2) in and was named Windows before. Anyone else had this problem before?
[11:16] <nojoints> And also gparted doesn't show in any menu even though I installed it
[11:16] <rausb0> arvino: i don't even know which laptop you have
[11:16] <arvino> rausb0, sorry acer travelmate 2480 i guess i should just try 1440 900
[11:16] <scguy318> nojoints: if its installed, should be in Administration
[11:16] <Tu3sday> ttt-, or use nautilus: Place -> Connect to Server.... -> Choose SSH and input data -> Connect
[11:16] <scguy318> else cmd-line gparted
[11:17] <Tu3sday> ttt-, i find the gui to be easier, not as efficient as command line scp tho
[11:17] <rausb0> arvino: try  sudo vbetool vbefp panelsize  to detect the size of the tft panel
[11:17] <rausb0> arvino: just in case you don't know the native resolution of the tft
[11:17] <nojoints> scgyt318; found out why I didn't find it, I was looking for the name gparted and it was named GNOME partition editor -.- :p
[11:18] <ttt-> im doing it from commandline (cygwin)
[11:18] <arvino> rausb0, 1280x800

[11:19] <Tu3sday> dane2, you said you were in construction, mind if I private message ya a question about this project idea I have? shouldn't take 2 minutes :p
[11:19] <rausb0> ttt-: or: scp user@remotehost:/path/to/remotefile .
[11:20] <blerd> hemal, ah. what are you trying to mount ?
[11:20] <hemal> ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed
[11:20] <dane2> hmm, on the packages page when you click a file and you can choose your architecture and there is the red, green, and blue icons...(depends, recommends, and suggests)...what exactly do those mean...cause I'm fairly positive I'm about to feel dumb
[11:20] <dane2> Tu3sday,  I don't work in it anymore, but sure
[11:20] <david__> rausb0, HEHE =) thanks a bunch
[11:20] <rausb0> ttt-: do not type this in the ssh session, but in your local cygwin terminal
[11:20] <ttt-> hey it's working
[11:20] <ttt-> thanks you guys
[11:20] <hemal> blerd, i just put in the live CD in drive and boot. at the screen i chose the first option start or install

[11:20] <gregorovius> anyone knows if there's a program to save and graph my internet uptime? like pinging a server every x time and seeing if it gets through
[11:21] <rausb0> david__: :)
[11:21] <david__> there we go
[11:21] <scguy318> dane2: it shows in a little table: red = depends, green = recommends, blue = suggests
[11:21] <hemal> and i get these errors and (initramfs) prompt
[11:21] <scguy318> hemal: /bin/sh tty job control off?
[11:21] <hemal> yes!
[11:21] <dane2> yes what exactly does it mean by 'depends' 'recommends' and 'suggest'
[11:21] <hemal> it said so in the beginning i think
[11:22] <dane2> I know it's a bit self-explanitory...but I'm still kinda lost
[11:22] <hemal> but all that has scrolled way up now
[11:22] <scguy318> dane2: depends = needs the package for installation, recommends = probably a good idea, suggest = mebbe if u want
[11:22] <scguy318> hemal: theres a billion workarounds everywhere, its related to having more than one devices hooked up to Primary/Slave?
[11:22] <scguy318> *Secondary
[11:22] <dane2> aha, depends = dependencies?
[11:22] <scguy318> yep
[11:23] <arvino> rausb0, beryl doesn't seem to work at this res though =( too laggy would that be right?

[11:24] <fsckr> im downloading the beta3 of gutsy.  im bored :) anyone using it?
[11:24] <hemal> blerd: it did boot from the CD, so I didn't check

[11:28] <dangerko>  kaffiene can open some channels thats order Card like ProgDvb who can open channels like showtime and multivision by using plugin or anything ?
[11:30] <snoops> hey, I'm wondering if someone could direct me to a channel where I can ask about the various open source licenses(options) available, so I can swing a deal with a new company starting up to use one of them?

[11:33] <plutoo> hi, I've a lame question - how run something.diff file ?
[11:33] <pupi120290> Xteven: some problem with the dhcp. cannot ping a computer by the host name
[11:34] <pupi120290> Xteven: i have a fritz-box which is connected with a d-link router
[11:34] <pupi120290> and all pcs are connected with the router
[11:34] <dane2> does sudo poweroff work with ubuntu? only time I've ever used it was for hdmaker for the xbox
[11:34] <benanzo> did the new intel driver fix compiz video playback for anyone?  it was supposed to but didn't work for me
[11:34] <pupi120290> ind the dhcp table of the router all computers are listed
[11:34] <pupi120290> but i cannot ping them
[11:34] <Xteven> pupi120290: ah, but if you ping, you need DNS
[11:34] <rausb0> pupi120290: but you can ping computers by their ip address?
[11:35] <Xteven> pupi120290: try pinging the IP address
[11:35] <plutoo> I've a lame question - how run something.diff file ?
[11:35] <benanzo> use 'sudo shutdown -h now'   -h is halt (which means poweroff)
[11:35] <pupi120290> XTeven: pinging by ip-adress functions
[11:35] <dings> plutoo: diffs are usually just a comparison between two files. You can aply it as a patch though, but it didn't sound like that was what you tried to do
[11:35] <pupi120290> Xteven: what do you mean by i need dns
[11:35] <Xteven> pupi120290: dns is what translates a hostname into an IP address
[11:35] <rausb0> Xteven: check the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf file
[11:36] <Xteven> pupi120290: you can set one up, but it's complicated
[11:36] <rausb0> pupi120290: check the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf file
[11:36] <Xteven> pupi120290: try adding an entry to /etc/hosts
[11:36] <plutoo> dings: thx
[11:36] <pupi120290> Xteven: the router has to manage to translate the host-name to an ip-adress. is that right? but it does not do it
[11:37] <scguy318> pupi: the router is supposed to give you a DHCP lease, and the router has internal DNS server
[11:37] <plutoo> btw, is here anyone who made built-in bluetooth in toshiba a100 working ? coz i've been trying past few days and can't make it...
[11:37] <benanzo> 208.67.220.220
[11:38] <benanzo> OpenDNS
[11:38] <Xteven> pupi120290: only if the router has a DNS server itself
[11:38] <kokice> benanzo: than you
[11:38] <Xteven> pupi120290: try what rausb0 said, check if your router is mentioned in /etc/resolv.conf
[11:38] <pupi120290> i checked my resolf.conf . there is an entry nameserver 192.168.0.1 thats the ip of the fritz-box
[11:38] <Xteven> ok
[11:39] <pupi120290> ok the router is not mentioned there
[11:39] <Xteven> pupi120290: try this: host <hostname of a machine> 192.168.0.1
[11:39] <Xteven> it isn't ?
[11:39] <vlt> Hello. I received an AMR file. I think it's kind of audio file but sox can't convert it to wav. Any idea what tool/lib I need?
[11:39] <Xteven> pupi120290: whats the IP of the router ?
[11:39] <plutoo> is here anyone who made built-in bluetooth in toshiba a100 working ? coz i've been trying past few days and can't make it...
[11:39] <pupi120290> host ubuntu 192.168.0.1
[11:39] <dings> plutoo: probably easier to figure out, and get help if you figure out the make and version of the bluethooth thingie. See if dmesg or lspci or any logs tell you anything
[11:39] <benanzo> that
[11:39] <pupi120290> wait... wrong window
[11:39] <fsckr> hehe i do that all the time
[11:40] <pupi120290> ok its output:
[11:40] <pupi120290> Using domain server:
[11:40] <pupi120290> Name: 192.168.0.1
[11:40] <pupi120290> Address: 192.168.0.1#53
[11:40] <pupi120290> Aliases:
[11:40] <pupi120290> Host ubuntu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
[11:41] <benanzo> that's just your gateway address.  The DNS servers should come from your ISP.  add nameserver 208.67.220.220 and nameserver 208.67.222.222 to /etc/resolv.conf then do 'sudo /etc/init.d/dns-clean start' the close/reopen firefox and you should be set
[11:41] <Xteven> pupi120290: ok, what is the IP address of the router ?

[11:43] <fsckr> fiction__, cuz of the spaces? not sure
[11:43] <blerd> fiction__, i dont know much about the command but the reason could be spaces
[11:43] <pupi120290> ok ill try to read...
[11:44] <fiction__> alright thanks
[11:44] <fiction__> but how would i fix?
[11:44] <fsckr> yw
[11:44] <fsckr> rename
[11:44] <fiction__> i thought quotes escaped spaces
[11:44] <fsckr> im supposing
[11:44] <scguy318> it does like i checked fiction__
[11:44] <scguy318> *last
[11:44] <fsckr> experiment by renaming it see what happens
[11:44] <scguy318> shouldnt there be a space
[11:44] <fiction__> scguy318, you tried the command?
[11:44] <scguy318> between space and the "
[11:44] <scguy318> or is it just mah eyes
[11:44] <scguy318> no, but I've done file paths :)
[11:45] <fiction__> where should there be a space?
[11:45] <scguy318> n/m
[11:45] <fsckr> no spaces
[11:45] <fiction__> try it. replace the path to an image. all it does is change the background

[11:55] <fsckr> ive never messed with the HD audio before im not fortunate enough to have that :P
[11:55] <[diablo] > good morning #ubuntu ... I've moved from 6 years of using KDE to Gnome... I'm pretty chuffed with Gnome, however I notice I have no tabs in Nautlius.. is this correct or am I missing something please?
[11:55] <fsckr> arvino, if its muted the speaker will have an X on it
[11:55] <Theimon> rexyy, eggdrop is in synaptic
[11:55] <arvino> fsckr, its showing green across the board
[11:55] <fsckr> david__, im not sure then on how to install that but i can find a link for you if you need it
[11:55] <rausb0> Theimon: hold on
[11:55] <dane2> before I go, I need to know. Will ubuntu save my dialup configuration settings? cause it seems when I reboot, I have to go through my sudo ./setup process and all that crap over again
[11:55] <david__> that would be nice
[11:55] <benanzo> rexyy: only if you want it to install system-wide.  you could do 'make install --prefix=${HOME}/eggdrop'  to have it install in your home dir
[11:56] <brownie17> hay guise! i'm trying to set up skype. i have a mic and headset plugged in and working, when i blow on the mic i can hear it in the headphones, all things are unmuted in alsamixer. but still, skype is not able to hear me at all. i think maybe it's an ALSA problem, i tried running skype through ALSA and OSS though, still this didn't work
[11:56] <bobon1100> im having some issues with ubuntu doing sshfs, i get locked out of the folder I mount and i cant get access, fusermount will undo it, but other than that it just sits there

[11:58] <david__> fsckr: thanks
[11:59] <Pingviller> arvino: I've read about similar problems, my laptop had no sound until I added a line in alsa-base.. and some people reported getting sound from speakers even when using headphones, and for me it works as it should with the same line and the same card... so I'm kinda confused on why it does like it does :P

[12:18] <dystopianray> skino: select 'nvidia' and then select all the resolutions you want to bea ble to use
[12:18] <dystopianray> skino: then restart X
[12:19] <Ramy> scguy318 thanks very much man, swat works very nice after reading the thread :)
[12:19] <Theimon> _Ahti, the answer is in the hamachi package you can download from their site
[12:19] <skino> ok when i pressed enter to the resolutions it gave me md5sum: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[12:19] <Tom_> Can i run the ubuntu install from DOS? I have a parallel port cdrom drive (Backpack), but i can't use that to boot off of...
[12:19] <_Ahti> Theimon: Thank you -.-
[12:20] <Theimon> check the README file when you downloaded it
[12:20] <_Ahti> :)
[12:20] <_Ahti> Will do
[12:20] <dystopianray> skino: ok, exit that configuration and run this: sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:20] <Ramy> scguy318 i read that page, and i did that configuration, but i don't know how i can add the configurable ubuntu printer to be seen from XP box ?
[12:20] <dystopianray> skino: then run the previous command again
[12:21] <scguy318> _Ahti: this might help:http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/VNC_and_Hamachi
[12:21] <R1ch13> eeeww im on my wifes windows machine while gutsy installs....just realized why i run linux

[12:22] <h4p0> tnk's guys
[12:22] <arvino4> has anyone had any luck with gDesklets

[12:22] <h4p0> :)
[12:22] <dystopianray> skino: ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:22] <Theimon> it worked :P
[12:22] <R1ch13> skino or sudo reboot now

[12:22] <R1ch13> in terminal
[12:22] <h4p0> I'm using beryl on my laptop now...I find it better then compiz fusion that is in testing on my Desk Station
[12:23] <dystopianray> h4p0: in what way?
[12:23] <Theimon> h4p0, matter of taste I guess
[12:23] <SlimG2> Is there a "oneline" command way of adding a "fd" type partition to an entire disk (using all space regardless of previous partitions)
[12:24] <h4p0> mmm...I think beryl is simply Faster and much more stable
[12:24] <scguy318> Ramy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP if u dont care about SMB
[12:24] <h4p0> that's the impression
[12:24] <scguy318> Ramy: IPP i think
[12:24] <h4p0> but yeah....question of taste
[12:24] <wubuntu> morning, guys ... got x loaded on two old desktops, but they don't have ethernet ports for internet... i searched for adapters, and found ethernet to usb units for as low as $6 that claim to be plug and play, does anybody have any experience using these devices to connect?
[12:24] <Lappy> is there an irc client that is = to mIRC on windows? or really close to it?
[12:24] <Lappy> !mirc
[12:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mirc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:24] <scguy318> i dont but you could test
[12:25] <scguy318> Lappy Wine + mIRC?
[12:25] <scguy318> its what I'm doing right now
[12:25] <Theimon> wubuntu, wouldn't it be easier to install a PCI ethernet card?
[12:25] <dystopianray> wubuntu: just get a regular ethernet nic
[12:25] <Lappy> scguy318, u cant minimize to tray, it's annoying.
[12:25] <Theimon> a simple Intel Pro 10/100 would do
[12:25] <scguy318> ? sure i can
[12:25] <wubuntu> Theimon: son't know if i'm smart enough to do that.
[12:25] <TomPurnell> non tech question: I'm looking for information on internationalisation and localisation in gnome and ubuntu, anyone know of any good resources?
[12:25] <dystopianray> Lappy: there are dozens of irc clients
[12:25] <Theimon> you cant go wrong :)
[12:25] <Lappy> scguy318, I can't... did u do something to it?
[12:25] <Theimon> those things are shaped in a way its fool proof
[12:25] <scguy318> minimize the whole mIRC window? sure u can
[12:25] <Lappy> dystopianray, I'm using XChat right now, but it's missing so many things.
[12:26] <dystopianray> Lappy: like what?
[12:26] <puffy-san> Y f
[12:26] <puffy-san> sorry
[12:26] <Lappy> scguy318, yeah u can, but not to tray
[12:26] <wubuntu> how much are they?  found this ether to usb adapter for $6
[12:26] <scguy318> the whole thing goes away unless I'm blind :(
[12:26] <Theimon> i dont know, here in Holland there about the same
[12:26] <SlimG2> Lappy: Checkout mIRC equivalents on Linux at this list: http://www.linuxalt.com/
[12:26] <Theimon> like 6-8 bucks
[12:26] <Lappy> dystopianray, cant nick+tab in query, cant ctrl+tab / ctrl+w to move from a tab to the other, cnat ctrl+q to go from query to query
[12:26] <Lappy> SlimG2, ok will do.
[12:27] <Theimon> ether to usb causes a slowdown
[12:27] <scguy318> TomPurnell: GNOME Translation Project? http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gtp/
[12:27] <act1v8> How can I "split", or "share", a wired ethernet connection coming on this computer which has wifi and then "share", or "split" that wired connection through the wifi but I want this computer still to have the wired ethernet, but to share the rest of the connection via wifi with other computers/devices
[12:27] <Theimon> since the usb cant provide as uch bandwidth
[12:27] <Lappy> scguy318, well it doesn't here, did you do osmething to it?
[12:27] <scguy318> no
[12:27] <scguy318> Lappy you using latest Wine?
[12:27] <wubuntu> ok, i go look at pci cards
[12:27] <SlimG2> Is there a "oneline" command way of adding a "fd" type partition to an entire disk (using all space regardless of previous partitions)
[12:27] <scguy318> latest right now is 0.9.43
[12:27] <dystopianray> act1v8: you'd probably need your nic to support AP mode
[12:27] <TomPurnell> scguy318: thanks, exactly what I was looking for
[12:27] <Theimon> cheap stuff, it'll work out
[12:27] <Theimon> good luck wubuntu
[12:27] <scguy318> act1v8 probably wanna bridge
[12:27] <gordonjcp> dystopianray: you could use adhoc
[12:27] <gordonjcp> yup
[12:28] <dystopianray> gordonjcp: does that work with multiple clients?
[12:28] <gordonjcp> act1v8: google for bridging and adhoc networks
[12:28] <gordonjcp> dystopianray: oh yeah
[12:28] <Lappy> scguy318, I think so. apt-get update/upgrade doesn't give me any updates.
[12:28] <act1v8> ok...
[12:28] <scguy318> ah, the Ubuntu repos only have 0.9.32
[12:28] <scguy318> or so
[12:28] <bobon1100> hey, im trying to sshfs a share on the server, but the best I can get is this: ?---------  ? ?    ?       ?                ? /mnt
[12:28] <gordonjcp> quite cool being able to use gobby with someone driving behind you
[12:28] <scguy318> http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
[12:28] <scguy318> to install latest
[12:28] <gordonjcp> obviously the laptops weren't being used by the driver of the car, that would be silly
[12:29] <Theimon> feisty repo provides wine version 0.9.43  i believe
[12:29] <arvino4> is there a way to remove the toolbar at the bottom of gnome and have it replaced by a Desklet?
[12:29] <scguy318> it doesnt Theimon
[12:29] <scguy318> you have to add the Wine repo
[12:29] <Theimon> oh darn
[12:29] <Theimon> its the wine repo

[12:30] <Fong> the driver can not use
[12:30] <scguy318> wut

[12:31] <scguy318> marshcast: video corruption? using restricted?
[12:31] <marshcast> scguy318, I had open source drivers - these are ok but I lose user switching (which is important in this m/c.
[12:32] <Fong> my card is 8500GT, i don't know why the driver not work
[12:32] <act1v8> scguy318: ok
[12:32] <dystopianray> Fong: the driver in feisty does not support your card
[12:32] <scguy318> Nvidia latest and greatest might, if u wanna take the risk
[12:32] <Theimon> Fong, you need the 100.14 from nvidia.com
[12:32] <Fong> dystopianray, i have try the offical driver
[12:33] <Fong> 100.14.11
[12:33] <Theimon> i know, I have the same card
[12:33] <Fong> but also not work
[12:33] <scguy318> wut doesnt?
[12:33] <Fong> the driver
[12:33] <Theimon> follow the instructions exactly when installing those drivers and it should work flawlessly
[12:33] <scguy318> well what about it doesnt work
[12:33] <Fong> i'm reading the linux suport forum
[12:33] <scguy318> marshcast what do you mean u lose user switching?
[12:33] <marshcast> scguy318, installed restricted - no user switching at all - using ati (default) user switching shows the desktop but no action,  using vesa vid corruption. ati worked before - but then it all fell apart.
[12:34] <Fong> i'm not sure........
[12:34] <Theimon> Fong, I had it going without trouble, first try
[12:34] <linda> any one can help me i have this error on mysql server when i logon ('Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)')
[12:34] <SlimG2> Is there a "oneline" command way of adding a "fd" type partition to an entire disk (using all space regardless of previous partitions)
[12:34] <Theimon> installed new hardware, threw in the newest driver, restarted X................hooray \o/
[12:34] <Fong> my english is bad.......
[12:34] <marshcast> scguy318, user switvhing - ati: desktop but lose mouse, flgrx: black screen on user switch, vesa switching good - bad graphics.
[12:34] <scguy318> Theimon Envy any good?
[12:35] <Theimon> envy gets the latest as well, I didnt use it tho
[12:35] <dystopianray> linda: did you set a password?
[12:35] <scguy318> hmm, I dunno
[12:35] <Theimon> i got it straight from nvidia
[12:35] <dystopianray> linda: also you need to use the -p option
[12:35] <linda> yes
[12:35] <dystopianray> linda: mysql -u root -p
[12:35] <Theimon> Fong, where are you from?
[12:35] <Kopcap^away> hi, what can be blocking ports on my ubuntu?

[12:36] <Theimon> hmm, dont speak chinese, sorry
[12:36] <Kopcap^away> nope, everything is set
[12:36] <Kopcap^away> dystopianray disabled it
[12:36] <dystopianray> linda: you need the -p option
[12:36] <linda> ok i well try it now thx
[12:36] <Fong> i don't know how to say the problem.........
[12:36] <marshcast> have tried also to copy the livedisk xorg.conf - (it uses ati) but lost user switching with that too (works on live disk) thats why i think its the ati drivers corrupt. Is there any way I can remove them & re-install them from scratch?
[12:36] <joakim> anyone know what's going on with the subpixel rendering repos btw?
[12:36] <Kopcap^away> i can access the webserver, but can't access ssh and ftp
[12:36] <marshcast> scg ^
[12:36] <marshcast> scguy318, ^
[12:36] <scguy318> marshcast: remove ATI drivers? Envy can i think
[12:36] <uptownben> Hi all. I want to install ubuntu on a CF and I want to be sure that there is no swap, can I do that with a regular ubuntu iso? just by not creating a swap partition?
[12:36] <joakim> or maybe someone has those packages?
[12:37] <scguy318> uptownben: yes
[12:37] <uptownben> so I just set it up normally and when I partition I dont create any swap artition, thats it?
[12:37] <marshcast> scguy318, cant find anything google - all i can find is installing closed source ati drivers etc...
[12:37] <marshcast> scguy318, Envy?
[12:38] <scguy318> marshcast: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[12:38] <act1v8> scguy318: I don't think that this is what I need... I basically want to split the wired ethernet connection and still use it on this machine, but having the rest of the wired ethernet connection "forwarded" via wifi so everyone can use that connection (making this laptop an access point)
[12:38] <scguy318> uptownben: yes
[12:38] <linda> appear this error (ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[12:38] <uptownben> coolio..  I'll try it now.
[12:38] <Theimon> marshcast: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[12:38] <Theimon> check that site
[12:39] <dystopianray> linda: did you use the '-p' option?
[12:39] <Kopcap> dystopianray anything else?
[12:39] <Theimon> it automates the installation of ati and nvidia drivers
[12:39] <scguy318> act1v8: bridging imho is wut u want but I dunno if bridging lets the bridging comp utilize the wired connection
[12:39] <scguy318> input may help :)
[12:39] <linda> sorry whats mean of -p
[12:39] <dystopianray> Kopcap: are the ssh and ftp servers running?
[12:39] <marshcast> scguy318, Theimon - Thanks... will take a look
[12:39] <Kopcap> sure
[12:39] <dystopianray> linda: it means to use a password
[12:39] <Theimon> good luck
[12:39] <linda> but i'm not use it before
[12:39] <Kopcap> i'm connected though the ssh (localy)
[12:39] <dystopianray> linda: mysql -u root -p
[12:40] <dystopianray> linda: which is why it hasn't worked
[12:40] <act1v8> scguy318: I think I need more of an Soft AP
[12:40] <dystopianray> act1v8: what wifi card do you have?
[12:40] <fotoflo> hmm im having a real wierd problem,  after logging to a private ftp site, i cant get a dir listing and the connection hangs in just about every program i have tried (including coreFTP on a windows box a few min ago),  but i used the standard command line ftp and everything seemd to work
[12:40] <linda> i'm change password from phpmyadmin page and when i logon again appear this error
[12:40] <linda> i'm changed password from phpmyadmin page and when i logon again appear this error
[12:41] <dystopianray> linda: you're trying to login through phpmyadmin?
[12:41] <linda> yes
[12:41] <act1v8> dystopianray: it's an intel I can't remember... it is fully supported by NetworkManager
[12:41] <neopsyche> Hi.. this may be a very advanced question.. but.. how do i compile my own version of ubuntu.. for example there is kubuntu and other variants of the original ubuntu.. how can i make my own version with custom programs and graphics to be loaded when a user installs ubuntu?
[12:41] <Kopcap> yay. connected... :)
[12:41] <dystopianray> linda: try logging into the mysql console
[12:41] <Kopcap> thanks
[12:42] <dystopianray> act1v8: intel can't do AP mode, you'll need adhoc
[12:42] <linda> who i can make that
[12:42] <Fong> when i installing the nvidia driver, it's not problem. but i try to start gdm, it say xserver can not start
[12:42] <Fong> no screen found
[12:42] <scguy318> ahhhhh
[12:42] <linda> how i can make that
[12:42] <dystopianray> linda: open a terminal and run this: $ mysql -u root -p
[12:42] <scguy318> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:42] <scguy318> Fong: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:42] <Theimon> be sure to select nvidia in driver section
[12:42] <scguy318> yes
[12:42] <Theimon> and the right resolutions
[12:43] <Fong> before the no screen found error, is nvidia xxx can not start
[12:43] <act1v8> dystopianray: what does that adhoc thing mean... how can I make the adhoc thing
[12:43] <Fong> scguy318, but it can not use glx
[12:43] <tim167> hi all, I want to prevent the screen from going black or to screensaver, i made a script with "xset -dpms; xset s noblank; xset s off", but still screen goes blank, any ideas ? thanks
[12:43] <SlimeyPe1e> neopsyche: I have heard that you can use Reconstructor to do this but I haven't done it myself
[12:43] <Fong> i need glx
[12:43] <neopsyche> Thanks SP
[12:43] <neopsyche> ;-)
[12:43] <linda> when i'm enter password i see this error ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[12:44] <dystopianray> act1v8: basically a wireless network without an AP
[12:44] <joakim> anyone here who has installed the subpixel rendering thing for feisty? the repos are down so maybe you have the packages left?
[12:44] <dystopianray> linda: you must be entering the wrong password
[12:44] <Fong> Theimon, i read this:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[12:44] <Fong> &this: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490
[12:44] <Fong> but also not work
[12:44] <linda> can i change it
[12:44] <act1v8> dystopianray: ok... so how do I do that connection
[12:44] <shadeofgrey> okjay folks
[12:44] <shadeofgrey> i need to know a few things
[12:45] <dystopianray> act1v8: i'm not sure, google for some documentation
[12:45] <Theimon> Fong, try this: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[12:45] <Theimon> cant go wrong
[12:45] <linda> can i change it
[12:45] <Theimon> follow instructions and you're good to go
[12:45] <scguy318> wut things shadesofgrey
[12:45] <harveyd> whats everyones svn gui of choice, cant find anything decent on ubuntu
[12:45] <Fong> Theimon, Thanks~
[12:45] <Theimon> good luck
[12:45] <scguy318> harveyd i just use cmd-line, its a GUI right there :P
[12:45] <shiester_miester> hey guys, whats the command line to launch the process monitor app?
[12:46] <dystopianray> linda: perhaps try this: sudo mysqladmin -u root password <password>
[12:46] <harveyd> top
[12:46] <scguy318> top
[12:46] <scguy318> or ps -A to get a nice dump
[12:46] <shiester_miester> no no i mean to launch the gui-based command line app
[12:46] <uptownben> I have IBM X24 notebook (1ghz processor 256MB ram, do you think I should install UBUNTU ro XUBUNTU?
[12:46] <shiester_miester> whoops that was badly worded
[12:46] <dystopianray> harveyd: i use subversion fromt he terminal
[12:46] <ana_serbia> hi, is there somebody for private
[12:46] <shiester_miester> i mean the gui-based process thingy
[12:46] <gordonjcp> uptownben: either, but you're going to want more RAM
[12:46] <shiester_miester> specifically the one I can use to kill processes that won't die!
[12:46] <scguy318> gnome-system-monitor?
[12:47] <shiester_miester> thanks!
[12:47] <harveyd> yeh Im looking for a usable gui client
[12:47] <viajador> Hi there! I need help with a script I'm writing: Is it possible to use 'date' with a specific format and then use 'mkdir' to create a folder with that date's name?
[12:47] <scguy318> mm, i think Sourceforge mentions a few
[12:47] <ana_serbia> hi, is there somebody for private
[12:47] <viajador> Using pipes, perhaps?
[12:47] <linda> appear same as error
[12:47] <scguy318> i guess something like "`date`"?
[12:48] <dystopianray> ana_serbia: ask your questions in here
[12:48] <gordonjcp> harveyd: probably rapidsvn
[12:48] <shiester_miester> also, whats the difference between typing "killall processName" and opening the system monitor and right clicking, selecting "kill process"?
[12:48] <scguy318> so
[12:48] <linda> i'm tryed to remove mysql-server and mysql-client package and install it again but not work
[12:48] <scguy318> viajador: something like mkdir "`date cmd here`"
[12:48] <harveyd> ive tried rapidsvn / kdesvn and smartsvn
[12:48] <dystopianray> harveyd: there is a subversion plugin for eclipse and I believe kdevelop supports subversion
[12:48] <shiester_miester> cos "killall" doesnt work, whereas using the system monitor does work
[12:48] <gordonjcp> harveyd: and?
[12:48] <harveyd> smartsvn is the best but still lacking, its far too slow
[12:49] <scguy318> shiester_miester: killall enumerates the process table and tries to match the process name, sys monitor obtains PID and kills that particular PID
[12:49] <gordonjcp> harveyd: what's wrong with the others?
[12:49] <harveyd> yeh i should probably just start using eclipse
[12:49] <shiester_miester> scguy318, is there another way to kill a process better via the command line?
[12:49] <gordonjcp> bleah, eclipse
[12:49] <linda> appear same as error
[12:49] <linda> i'm tryed to remove mysql-server and mysql-client package and install it again but not work
[12:49] <scguy318> shiester_miester: i guess ps -A | grep blahblah, kill <that PID>?
[12:49] <viajador> scguy: that just creates a folder called date +%Y%m
[12:49] <harveyd> rapidsvn doesnt seem to remember my bookmarks, give me accurate status updates, give me a list of files when doing a recursive commit
[12:49] <scguy318> viajador
[12:49] <scguy318> `
[12:50] <scguy318> its the button that has tilde
[12:50] <scguy318> it works 4 me
[12:50] <Ramy> scguy318 thanks very much man, i can do sharing of the printer, in 2 ways by the way give me and by swat and samba. man you solved problems that took from me more than 6 hours :)
[12:50] <scguy318> $ mkdir "`date`" seems to work 4 me
[12:50] <scguy318> Ramy: np
[12:50] <harveyd> kde svn is better, but again i dont get a full list of what I am committing
[12:50] <dystopianray> linda: sudo aptitude purge mysql-server
[12:51] <scguy318> viajador: $ mkdir "`date`" seems to work 4 me
[12:51] <harveyd> : wishes somone would port tortoise
[12:51] <linda> ok
[12:51] <linda> installed
[12:51] <viajador> scguy: thanks! It was the "`" confusion! :|

[12:52] <scguy318> g/l
[12:52] <Theimon> good luck
[12:52] <marshcast> thanks gents...

[12:52] <linda> ok
[12:53] <linda> what can i do next
[12:55] <linda> what can i do next
[12:55] <Ramy> scguy318 the final problem i got, that when i try to share /media to be viewable from XP, i got an error message about permission access denied. /media contains the mounting paths to my HDDs partitions the under the root ownership. when i tried to change the permissions by using sudo chmod i got "not allowed", can i share the folders owned by root ?
[12:55] <scguy318> Ramy: you need NTFS-3G
[12:56] <scguy318> Ramy: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config, run the NTFS Config Utility in Administration
[12:56] <scguy318> Ramy: then the NTFS part will get added to fstab
[12:56] <Ramy> scguy318 but they are FAT32 ?!
[12:56] <scguy318> oh
[12:56] <dystopianray> linda: configure your mysql server as normal
[12:57] <dystopianray> Ramy: fat32 has no permissions, you need a umask setting when mounting
[12:57] <linda> sorry how i can do that i now good on mysql
[12:57] <Ramy> dystopianray, can you tell me how i can do that ?
[12:57] <linda> sorry how i can do that i not good on mysql
[12:58] <scguy318> Ramy, you'll probably want to edit your fstab
[12:58] <scguy318> pastebin it and we can help
[12:58] <dystopianray> Ramy: edit /etc/fstab and add an appropriate umask to the mount options of that volume, probably something like 022

[01:04] <john_do1> how do I see if dma is working on my optical drive?
[01:04] <scguy318> dystopianray: which is what I was asking about
[01:04] <marshcast> scguy318, Theimon Envy's sorted it - I was up till 4am trying to sort that and you's guys have pointed me fantastically - thankyuothankyouthankyou ;)  - is the "we dont support these drivers 'cause they're restricted anything to worry about? would I be wise to take out all the repo's except security ones for upgrades?
[01:04] <FurryNemesis> hello all
[01:04] <FurryNemesis> which version of Ubuntu do I need for a mac?
[01:04] <dystopianray> scguy318: probably just a temporary issue
[01:04] <scguy318> kk
[01:04] <Theimon> marshcast, just leave it as is
[01:04] <scguy318> marshcast: kinda overkill lol
[01:04] <Theimon> should the driver break, just re-use envy
[01:04] <scguy318> marshcast: the restricted == proprietary
[01:04] <john_do1> FurryNemesis: which mac?
[01:05] <dystopianray> FurryNemesis: x86 or ppc?
[01:05] <Theimon> but good to know it worked :)
[01:05] <FurryNemesis> that;s my problem, it's an older model
[01:05] <dystopianray> FurryNemesis: a non-intel mac?
[01:05] <marshcast> Theimon, scguy318 ok - just checking - am paranoid after the problems i've had over the last couple of weeks.
[01:05] <john_do1> FurryNemesis: that's not a problem.
[01:05] <Theimon> no worries :)
[01:05] <FurryNemesis> non -intel
[01:05] <john_do1> FurryNemesis: it's much better just to tell which one you have
[01:06] <uptownben> I'm trying to setup my RT61 wireless card, it gets detected and I see it in the network settings window, but when I enable it I only see options for password WEP (ascii) and WEP (hex) , but I dont use any WEP password on my local wireless network.
[01:06] <FurryNemesis> I'm really not sure, this is tech support for a friend
[01:06] <marshcast> but wicked. Thanks (again)... I now have a good system. Another chalk mark for envy, methinks ;)
[01:06] <Ramy> scguy318, it does not work, do i have to reboot ?
[01:06] <Theimon> lol
[01:06] <dystopianray> FurryNemesis: tell your friend to come in here
[01:06] <Theimon> enjoy marshcast
[01:06] <scguy318> Ramy: try that I guess, sudo mount -a is supposed to do it
[01:06] <FurryNemesis> er...., he's 77 and has no idea what irc is
[01:06] <scguy318> oh...lol
[01:07] <marshcast> Theimon, I will :)
[01:07] <Theimon> :)
[01:07] <scguy318> dunno I would bet its PPC, but ehhh
[01:07] <FurryNemesis> that;s what I was thinking
[01:07] <FurryNemesis> I'll go witht tat
[01:08] <fabian_> ...
[01:09] <FurryNemesis> ty'
[01:09] <fabian_> hi guys
[01:09] <Theimon> hi fabian
[01:09] <fabian_> do you know if theres a way to insert apa references into openoffice like word 2007?
[01:10] <Theimon> doesn't ring a bell, I don't use office that often
[01:10] <fabian_> where can i find a channel list here and a list of users in here? :)
[01:11] <scguy318> APA? isnt it just a simple format job?
[01:11] <viajador> scguy: next challenge :) How can I list files filtered by month of creation?
[01:11] <mattycoze> got any idea how to get directdraw to work on ubuntu?
[01:11] <fabian_> hmh
[01:11] <scguy318> mattycoze: wine?
[01:11] <scguy318> viajador i'll have to think a bit
[01:11] <Pici> fabian_: Just a hint, if you dont get an answer here, try asking in #openoffice.org
[01:12] <nojoints> Hello, anyone knows how to unmount the ones you mount with ntfs3-g? I can't get them unmounted and they don't show in ntfs-3g
[01:12] <scguy318> probably using sort tho
[01:12] <VincentMX> hi
[01:12] <scguy318> umount /mnt/point?
[01:12] <SettlerX> When i tried to install Xubuntu, after loading system i saw errors like "hd0 ... error block ...". What does it mean? Xubuntu was still reading HDD and CD.
[01:12] <kevinh90> someone said my name
[01:12] <kevinh90> my log doesnt go back that far :(
[01:12] <Lazareth> how to unsuspend a console program that has been stopped and enter it again?
[01:13] <dystopianray> nojoints: use umount
[01:13] <VincentMX> Lazareth, using screen
[01:13] <Pici> kevinh90: It was 7 hours ago: <ibanex> kevinh90: Rubin: i feel weird about the server install on a desktop, but if it has basic packages i might as well
[01:13] <MattJ> Lazareth: Type 'jobs' to see the list, and it will have a number
[01:13] <Lazareth> I know that much
[01:13] <MattJ> Lazareth: Type: %1 or %2 or %3... whatever the number is
[01:13] <kevinh90> Pici, thanks!
[01:13] <Pici> kevinh90: no problem
[01:13] <nojoints> dystopianray; well i've tried that but they have & in the name which makes them unable to unmount by that command
[01:13] <Lazareth> ah
[01:13] <dystopianray> nojoints: escape the &
[01:13] <kevinh90> yea, he wanted ubuntu, but he didnt want as many packages installed by default
[01:13] <Lazareth> thanks Matt, works
[01:14] <kevinh90> we recommended a server install
[01:14] <nojoints> dtstopianray; escape the &? they're names is like music&random
[01:14] <VincentMX> how do i connect to a windows share in ubuntu?
[01:14] <dystopianray> nojoints: music\&random
[01:14] <neozen> !samba
[01:14] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[01:14] <MattJ> Lazareth: np. You can also do: %1 & to start it in the background
[01:14] <nojoints> dystopianray; okok
[01:14] <fabian_> anyone got a problem with getting sound working on intel hda?
[01:14] <scguy318> viajador i dunno restate the prob so others can help :)

[01:15] <SettlerX> Will Xubuntu install on my machine? Athlon XP 2000+, 256 RAM, HDD: Samsung SV0412H
[01:15] <scguy318> sure why not
[01:15] <Theimon> SettlerX, yes
[01:15] <scguy318> RAM is basically not bad
[01:15] <dystopianray> SettlerX: you don't have much ram
[01:15] <scguy318> well its great for Xubuntu
[01:15] <Lazareth> SettlerX - probably yeah, won't ever know before you try
[01:15] <SettlerX> Lazareth: I described my problem before.
[01:15] <nojoints> dystopianray; now it doesn't show up in ntfs-3g program to re mount them with another name
[01:16] <SettlerX> "hd0 ... error block ..." etc... - what does i mean?
[01:16] <guyvdb_> if i want to set an environmental variable (system wide - not for an individual user) in which script/file should i do it oun ubuntu server?

[01:17] <scguy318> ingo: guessing a triple dual-boot? i think GRUB could handle it
[01:17] <nojoints> dystopianray; how do i find the exact device and mount point?
[01:17] <scguy318> ingo i guess allocate some parts for Mac/XP/Ubuntu and go from there?
[01:17] <sico> could someone help me? i'm having an issue with update/upgrade. i get errors and firefox will not run
[01:17] <dystopianray> nojoints: take a look at /dev/disk/ and only you know the mount point

[01:20] <gaara> its detecting the hardware

[01:21] <gaara> but cant detect any network
[01:21] <scguy318> dystopianray: ive gotten Mac OS X86 to run under VMware Workstation
[01:21] <dystopianray> scguy318: really?

[01:23] <uptownben> How do I setup my wireless card if I am NOT using WEP on my wifi network?
[01:23] <UberPsyX> hey guys, i just got a Logitech G15 keyboard and im struggling to get certain parts working in linux, can anyone help me out?
[01:23] <gaara> and the wireless section does not appear on my kwifimanager either
[01:23] <nekr0z> have a little problem with amarok: when turning on suggested songs playlist, it seems to lockup on first suggestion, and then only adds the same artists
[01:23] <scguy318> Uber: wuts the prob
[01:23] <scguy318> uptownben: if ur not using WEP you shouldnt get asked for a key
[01:23] <thanda> uptownben: How do you mean by setting wireless card without WEP?
 but the intel-macbook for example is a plain pc ...
[01:24] <gaara> ???
[01:24] <scguy318> i believe hes trying to connect to an unsecure network
[01:24] <dystopianray> ingo: it's not
[01:24] <scguy318> ingo: with a friendly TPM chip ;)
[01:24] <nekr0z> I mean, if the playlist starts with A, suggested are B and C. D and E are suggested for B, but amarok doesn't add them, but keeps adding B and C all the day long
[01:24] <ingo> hmm ...
[01:24] <nekr0z> is that normal?
[01:24] <scguy318> ingo: its why you have to obtain special ISOs from say the BT tracker Demonoid
[01:24] <scguy318> ingo: in order to run OS X on a PC
[01:24] <Theimon> UberPsyX, this any help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=267118&highlight=how+to+logitech+G15 ?

[01:25] <scguy318> UberPsyX, so issues with typing?
 that means that there is a way to run it on a pc?
[01:26] <scguy318> to run Mac OS X on a PC? hell yeah the patched ISOs
[01:26] <dystopianray> ingo: unsupported and illegal ways
[01:26] <sico> :'( this is so frustrating.  :9
[01:26] <scguy318> yep
[01:26] <UberPsyX> scguy318 no i can type fine, its just the g keys and lcd
[01:26] <scguy318> the EULA for it bars running on non-Mac hardware anyway
 ok

 can you show me a link :-)
[01:27] <warbird_> hey, i got a problem deleteing a partition from a usb stick. parted tells me "unable to open /dev/sdb read-write (read-only filesystem)"

[01:27] <warbird_> anyone got any hints for that?
[01:27] <scguy318> ingo: billions of such torrents at Demonoid
[01:27] <scguy318> ingo: if you want an invitation I can provide
[01:27] <Theimon> warbird_, run parted as sudo and try again?
[01:27] <dystopianray> warbird_: you need to run parted as root
[01:27] <thanda> warbird_: What type of partition was that you have deleted...
[01:27] <dystopianray> warbird_: and make sure the 'read only' switch is not set on the usb stick

[01:31] <TC`> now i can't LEAVE the chats in skype

[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> How do you do a remote desktop to a computer behind a router?
[01:32] <warbird_> Jack_Sparrow: i did, but still get the same error :(
 not the prob i think
[01:32] <warbird_> unable to open read-write
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> warbird_: Are you trying to simply delete it or change it?
[01:32] <warbird_> i wanna delete it
[01:33] <warbird_> parted /dev/sdb rm
[01:33] <warbird_> i wanna delete all partitions and just make 1 new one
[01:33] <scguy318> no sudo?
[01:33] <scguy318> Jack_Sparrow: need to port forward on the router end
[01:33] <Theimon> is the device mounted?
[01:33] <scguy318> ingo: ?
[01:34] <warbird_> unmounted
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: I will look into how to do that.. thanks
[01:34] <ingo> yes i am thinking ... ;-)
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: Do you happen to know which port it uses?
[01:34] <scguy318> VNC?
[01:34] <scguy318> or RDP?
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[01:34] <scguy318> VNC its 5900
[01:35] <scguy318> RDP i think its 3309
[01:35] <gaara> Frogzoo: when i installed kubuntu, the kwifimanager detected the wireless card but everytime i enabled it, it got disabled immediately, so i used the ndiswrapper and installed the driver, used bcm43xx-fwcutter tool to get the driver also, followed the various instructions like blacklisting and modprobing it...what i've ended up with is kwifi not having the wireless networks section,but the interface being enabled as it shows, where iwlist scan says my eth1
[01:35] <gaara> has not scanned any networks.
[01:36] <scguy318> k
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: If I want to take over my father in laws computer and he is not behind a router but I am do I need to fort forward?
[01:36] <scguy318> no
[01:36] <wubuntu> frogzoo: guys, how do i know what resolutions to select on this x.org ?  how do i 'select' them?
[01:36] <scguy318> if the server is behind the router then port forward is required
[01:36] <scguy318> if the client is behind one then you dont
[01:37] <sico> system>preferences>screen resolution
[01:37] <scguy318> of course if hes firewalling make sure to add a rule
[01:37] <Theimon> wubuntu check your monitors docs
[01:37] <scguy318> to allow through 5900
[01:37] <ingo> another question: is there a free posibility to handle .nb-files from mathematica?
[01:37] <thanda> wubuntu: Does your machine is a laptop or desktop?
[01:37] <Frogzoo> wubuntu: sys -> prefs -> resolution
[01:37] <wubuntu> desktop
[01:37] <sico> how come dpkg won't work :'(
[01:37] <flo_> hi, can anyone tell me how to start a program on system start as root?
[01:37] <Theimon> wubuntu, you're reconfiguring X now right?
[01:37] <Happu> flo_: sudo <command>
[01:37] <dystopianray> flo__: which program?
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: Thanks.. one more question,  I had remote desktop working here between two computers on my side of the router.  After I installed crossover office I cant connect out but the other can connect in.  and does compiz mess with vnc?
[01:38] <Happu> flo_: i.e. sudo firefox starts firefox in root mode
[01:38] <wubuntu> no, ubuntu right now
[01:38] <thanda> wubuntu: What monitor do you have? Do you know what is the max resolution, does your monitor supports...
[01:38] <flo_> Happu, i want the program to be started before logging in with any user
[01:38] <flo_> dystopianray, it is i small batch file i wrote myself
[01:38] <wubuntu> did i say desktop??? i mean LAPTOP.... omg, i'm crosseyed already .. lol
[01:38] <scguy318> Jack_Sparrow: hmm dunno, and Compiz shouldn't
[01:38] <dystopianray> flo_: what does it do?
[01:38] <Theimon> haha
[01:38] <scguy318> Happu: gksudo?
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: thanks.. will look at port forwarding and go from there
[01:39] <flo_> dystopianray, it configures my wlan properly and starts it
[01:39] <Happu> flo_: then you have to make a script to /etc/init.d/
[01:39] <scguy318> np
[01:39] <thanda> wubuntu: What is the resolution of your lcd screen then?
[01:39] <Happu> flo_: or use ubuntu session tool
[01:39] <flo_> Happu, but the session tool doesn't start the program with root-rights, deos it?
[01:40] <SaeidZebardast> Error running tomcat: Unable to open debugger port : java.net.SocketException "Socket closed"
[01:40] <dystopianray> flo_: you can configure network interfaces elsewhere, shouldn't need a custom script
[01:40] <flo_> Happu, just put a soft link to /etc/init.d ?
[01:40] <rausb0> scguy318: RDP is port 3389
[01:40] <Happu> flo_ oh, you're right. The /etc/init.d/ is your choise
[01:40] <Happu> flo_: no, you have to do startup script
[01:40] <dystopianray> flo_: should bea ble to use /etc/network/interfaces
[01:40] <Happu> flo_: what program you are trying to start?
[01:40] <TomPurnell_> flo_: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialInitProcess.html has some information on that, particularly using chkconfig for generating the links
[01:40] <flo_> dystopianray, i know, but all tutorials i found didn'tz work for me :(
 i never heard about Demonoid before ...
[01:41] <Tom_> Would Ubuntu install a basic server version on 133mhz pentium with 48mb ram? :S
[01:41] <wubuntu> thanda: i don't know .... i lookd in sys prefs screen res, and it only offers 800/600 and 640/480
[01:41] <SaeidZebardast> Error running tomcat: Unable to open debugger port : java.net.SocketException "Socket closed"
[01:41] <dystopianray> Tom_: possible, but it'd be a stretch
[01:41] <dystopianray> possibly i mean
[01:41] <SaeidZebardast> Error running tomcat: Unable to open debugger port : java.net.SocketException "Socket closed"
[01:41] <thanda> wubuntu: Do you have an idea about the graphic card inside your laptop?
[01:41] <Lappy> what is the 'super' button?
[01:42] <Tom_> only problem is the backpack driver i need... its a pain in the rear to install centos (I mean... loadlin loads the ramdisk and the kernel then reboots)
[01:42] <TomPurnell_> dystopianray: Tom_, I don't think it meets the server install spec?
[01:42] <scottslinux> good morning everyone!
[01:42] <wubuntu> none whatsoever. is a dell d600 laptop
[01:42] <Lappy> !super
[01:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about super - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:42] <erUSUL> Lappy: the one with a windows log in some keyboards iirc
[01:42] <scguy318> morning scottslinux
[01:42] <wubuntu> thanda: none whatsoever. is a dell d600 laptop
[01:42] <Tom_> I dont know if it does either :P anyone know any other server distro's that will run on this spec?
[01:42] <thanda> wubuntu: wait I will check  for you..
[01:42] <dystopianray> Lappy: the windows/apple button
[01:42] <erUSUL> Lappy: Windows (tm) Logo*
[01:42] <Lappy> erUSUL, I had it fixed to open terminal for me, do I have to disable that?
[01:42] <TomPurnell_> Tom_, dystopianray, I'm pretty sure the very minimum is 166
[01:42] <scottslinux> I am on call in a hospital in phoenix and instead of sleeping I spent the night successfully configuring my kyocera broadband card!
[01:43] <Pici> scottslinux: yay!
[01:43] <Tom_> damn.
[01:43] <erUSUL> Lappy: dunno, what's the problem?
[01:43] <UberPsyX> scguy318, i try and run g15display and get the error "sh: cannot create /var/run/g15lcd: Permission denied"
[01:44] <wubuntu> scottslinux: thats better than changing cholostomy bags isn't it
[01:44] <scguy318> stick sudo in front of g15display
[01:44] <Tom_> Is that a ubuntu specific limitation or the kernel?
[01:44] <scottslinux> well, I am on trauma call...in between drunken idiots I have found time for the good stuff
[01:44] <thanda> wubuntu: If you know your graphic driver, then you must load the appropriate modules for that...and then set the corresponding resolution...but I could not find your model in dell.com
[01:44] <dystopianray> Tom_: ubuntu specific
[01:45] <sahil> hey, anyone know why i get an "Error Printing" message when i try to print something from openoffice
[01:45] <Lappy> erUSUL, trying some keybindings, am not sure if they'ren ot working because I have the super configured to the terminal or something else... I just disabled it opening terminal to test.
[01:45] <TomPurnell_> Tom_: what about a (much) older version or even something like openbsd?
[01:45] <scguy318> sahil: is your printer correctly setup in CUPS?
[01:45] <warbird_> maybe theres some kind of hardware read-only switch inside the usb stick... :/
[01:45] <sahil> i printed a test page, i used the HPLIP Toolbox to set it up
[01:45] <wubuntu> thanda: does that mean i'm gnna screw this up if i don't enter the right thing? should/can i abort the operation?
[01:46] <Tom_> Basically i was aiming to find something that would network install onto it (Supporting this linksys pcmcia network card), or be able to load via loadlin / bootfloppy from this backpack cdrom drive.
[01:46] <Tom_> i might try debian... if it will work
[01:46] <scguy318> sahil: what's the exact error message?
[01:46] <sahil> "Error Printing"
[01:46] <scottslinux> have 7.04 install at home...did something and now openoffice wont run. internal error. uninstalled, reinstalled Ooo...no luck. I read that automatix2 might fix that? any thoughts?
[01:46] <scguy318> wubuntu: wuts ur card?
[01:46] <sahil> "Error while printing"
[01:46] <scguy318> i thoughts automatix was crap?
[01:46] <thanda> wubuntu: No need to abort...if you installing...let the installation get completed...sure we can find the solution.
[01:46] <scguy318> sahil: thats it? hmm
[01:46] <SeveredCross> Tom_: Get Slackware!
[01:47] <SeveredCross> Slackware will run on anything.
[01:47] <scottslinux> gotta go to a trauma...thanks in advance!!
[01:47] <Tom_> Severed, does it do a network install?
[01:47] <scguy318> except my TI-84 :P
[01:47] <elkbuntu> scguy318, it is dangerous, yes
[01:47] <sahil> scguy318, thats it
[01:47] <SeveredCross> I don't think so.
[01:47] <dystopianray> scguy318: automatix is crap
[01:47] <TomPurnell_> Tom_: damnsmalllinux requires only a 486 with 16mb
[01:47] <scguy318> as I thought
[01:47] <thanda> wubuntu: can you open a terminal and type: sudo lspci
[01:47] <SeveredCross> Wow, that's insane.
[01:47] <Tom_> sweet
[01:47] <scguy318> isnt minimum for Linux kernel like 8 MB?
[01:47] <Tom_> i will try that.. and hope that webmin will install on it :D
[01:47] <SeveredCross> Not necessarily.
[01:48] <SeveredCross> If you build a very small kernel.
[01:48] <Tom_> well... it has a 60gig drive, so i can have a LOT of swap :P
[01:48] <scguy318> true
[01:48] <wubuntu> thanda: i have terminal open doing this configuration already, can i open another?
[01:48] <TomPurnell_> hahah goodluck Tom_
[01:48] <Theimon> lol Tom_
[01:48] <Tom_> Its a 1997 laptop, that can read the entire 60gig disk...
[01:48] <dystopianray> Tom_: you could possibly do the install on another machine with a lot of swap and put the drive back in and boot it
[01:48] <TomPurnell_> i think I had a 2gb hdd in 1997. I thought that was pretty big
[01:48] <sahil> scguy18, any suggestions on what i should do about the printer problem
[01:48] <Tom_> if i had another laptop, yeah
[01:48] <dystopianray> Tom_: i mean, give it a lot of swap during the install
[01:48] <thanda> wubuntu: If you use gnome, then type Ctrl+Shift+T on gnome-terminal
[01:49] <Tom_> but i dont :(
[01:49] <scguy318> sahil: mm, i dunno, repose so others might answer
[01:49] <thanda> wubuntu: I have your computer specs...now.
[01:49] <sahil> ill restart and re try and see
[01:49] <sahil> brb
[01:50] <wubuntu> thanda: i don't understand ... i have a terminal open, but i don't know if it's a 'gnome terminal', but i spose it is since this is ubuntu... can i open a second terminal simultaneously?
[01:50] <wubuntu> i be dumdum
[01:50] <thanda> wubuntu: yeah...you can open any number of terminals
[01:51] <wubuntu> ok, so i open term and put that in, brb
[01:51] <thanda> wubuntu: type: sudo  lspci
[01:51] <uptownben> My network is limited to certain MAC addresses , I don't use WEP but I only see 2 option sin my wireless network settings , WEP ascii and WEP hex..
[01:51] <dystopianray> uptownben: mac filtering is useless, it is trivial to defeat
[01:51] <titun> my laotop touchpad does not work on feisty on cold boot
[01:52] <titun> i have to reboot from xp to get it working
[01:52] <Tom_> uptownben: MAC adds some protection but not very much...
[01:52] <titun> what should i do?
[01:52] <SeveredCross> titun: What kinda touchpad?
[01:52] <SeveredCross> (Do you know)
[01:52] <uptownben> There is no one near me that knows how to hack MAC addresses, so I'm not worried about it.. but I would like to get my card working under ubuntu
[01:52] <Tom_> Synaptics?
[01:52] <SeveredCross> (And do you have a USB mouse plugged in?)
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Probably Synaptics, though it could be Alps if those are still around.
[01:53] <titun> SeveredCross: normal, lenovo 3000 series
[01:53] <uptownben> Why do i only have those 2 options?
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Okay, probably a Synaptics then...
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[01:53] <SeveredCross> Anything Synaptics should work no problem.
[01:53] <titun> SeveredCross: to be exact, Y500 34Q
[01:53] <Tom_> uptownben: are you in XP now?
[01:53] <uptownben> on my desktop, yes
[01:53] <SeveredCross> titun: Can you boot into Ubuntu and somehow pastebin the contents of your xorg.conf file (the file is at /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[01:53] <Tom_> Right click My Computer > Properties > Hardware > Device Manager, and expand the "Mice and other pointing devices"
[01:54] <titun> SeveredCross: when i reboot from xp it works, and when i have hibernated it works also
[01:54] <titun> SeveredCross: ok
[01:54] <SeveredCross> (The easiest way to do this would be with a USB mouse, but there are CLI ways)
[01:54] <wubuntu> thanda: ok, did that, got a bunch of output... what am i looking for ezackly?
[01:54] <uptownben> Why?
[01:54] <SeveredCross> I think Tom_ got confused as to who had a  mouse issue.
[01:55] <thanda> wubuntu: look for VGA compatible controller
[01:55] <uptownben> Ah OK..  I'm the guy with a wifi issue
[01:55] <wubuntu> thanda: k, brb
[01:55] <uptownben> I dont use WEP so how can I configure my card?
[01:55] <Tom_> sorry uptownben, got a bit messed up then... trying to install debian on one machine, copy the images to floppy on another and talking
can you invite me just to test it?
[01:56] <kanedaddy> hello
[01:56] <NineTails> hi
[01:56] <sahil> hey, anyone know how to get one of those big clocks on my desktop ?
[01:56] <wubuntu> thanda: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)
[01:56] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: got a second for private chat?
[01:57] <sahil> scguy318, all it needed was a restart to start working
[01:57] <thanda> wubuntu: wonderful, you have a ATI card inside.
[01:57] <titun> SeveredCross: here is my xorg.conf, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33806/ , let me clarify my touchpad works when i first boot into windows XP and the restart to Ubunt
[01:57] <scguy318> sahil: ah cool
[01:57] <titun> so its not that it does not work at all
[01:57] <sahil> do you know how to get a big clock on the desktop
[01:57] <scguy318> ATI should be dumped their drivers are a joke ;)
[01:57] <wubuntu> thanda: so that's a good thing?
[01:57] <titun> SeveredCross: only it does not work from cold boot
[01:57] <thanda> wubuntu: Now type: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf in a terminal, it will open xorg.conf file
[01:57] <scguy318> thanda: gksudo
[01:57] <scguy318> never do sudo for GUI apps
[01:57] <uptownben> Tom_: it's cool. this channel is VERY busy!
[01:58] <Tom_> Yeah, it sure is
[01:58] <scguy318> sahil: big clock like?
[01:58] <wubuntu> thanda: ummmm.. so sudo or gksudo?
[01:58] <scguy318> gksudo
[01:58] <SeveredCross> titun: Okay, everything's there.
[01:58] <SeveredCross> Humm.
[01:58] <Lappy> !paste
[01:58] <SeveredCross> I wonder why it wouldn't work from cold boot.
[01:58] <SeveredCross> Check your bios?
[01:58] <Lappy> !pastebin
[01:59] <titun> SeveredCross: also i get sometimes while booting i get these errors : Aug 15 17:28:25 Ubuntu firmware_helper[10045] : main: error loading '/lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode5.fw' for device '/class/firmware/0000:03:00.0' with driver '(unknown)'
[01:59] <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)
[01:59] <snegler> I am having problems sharing my internet connection. I have followed this guide without success: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370. After rebooting I was stuck with no internet, but figured out that disabling ipmasq solved this problem.
[01:59] <thanda> scguy318: Yes, I am aware of that...but it depends on what display manager you use...nevertheless I go for sudo
[01:59] <titun> this error message is flooded in sys log
[01:59] <scguy318> thanda: problem with sudo is that it causes side-effects and can screw up ICEauthority
[01:59] <TomPurnell_> !i18n
[01:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i18n - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:59] <warbird_> after a bit of searching i found a program on the makers site that unlocked and deleted the partition on the usb stick
[01:59] <warbird_> thanks for the help anyways :)
[02:00] <scguy318> thanda: and if u try to do sudo kate == miserable feil
[02:00] <titun> SeveredCross: what should i check for in the BIOS specifically?
[02:00] <NineTails> dunno
[02:00] <Moonshadow> shi
[02:00] <SeveredCross> Anything about the touchpad...It's different for different BIOSes.
[02:00] <thanda> scguy318: Yes...that is if you install KDM...normally I copy .Xauthority to /root then things will be fine...
[02:00] <thanda> wubuntu: Did you open that file already?
[02:00] <Lappy> http://pastebin.com/m786c98bb <-- can someone please take a look at this?
[02:01] <titun> SeveredCross: ok, will give it a try,
[02:01] <wubuntu> getting it
[02:01] <scguy318> thanda: well my point is that sudo for GUI causes issues but eh
[02:01] <titun> SeveredCross: is that error message associated somehow?
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> scguy318: I believe I have the port forwarded correctly...  Need someone to test the theory..  Place got busy, East coast waking up....
[02:01] <Lappy> I was following: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[02:02] <Pici> Lappy: Did you do an apt-get update before you started?
[02:02] <thanda> scguy318: When you use graphical interface to open an application as root..then kdm will be happy to do that...
[02:03] <Lappy> Pici, no I did not... I just noticed I had updates... silly me :)
[02:03] <thanda> wubuntu: I may leave for lunch...but if you make it quick I will be happy to sort that issue...
[02:03] <Lappy> Pici, doesn't seem like I can do it anymore.
[02:03] <wubuntu> thanda: omg. got it open. very intimidating. lots of output. me no understand too much.
[02:03] <scguy318> thanda: well, all I know is that gksudo/kdesu is what ur supposed to do for GUI apps
[02:03] <SeveredCross> titun: Which error message?
[02:03] <titun> SeveredCross: is this error message associated with that touchpad thing?
[02:03] <titun> Aug 15 17:28:25 Ubuntu firmware_helper[10045] : main: error loading '/lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode5.fw' for device '/class/firmware/0000:03:00.0' with driver '(unknown)'
[02:03] <Lappy> Pici, oh wait.. update, yeah I did.
[02:03] <titun> the syslog is full of this message
[02:04] <SeveredCross> No, that's for your network card.
[02:04] <thanda> wubuntu: scroll down, till you find Section "Device"
[02:04] <titun> ah
[02:04] <Sagi_CZ> ATI card+Ubuntu is really fucking combination...
[02:04] <wubuntu> thanda: k, brb
[02:04] <thanda> wubuntu: under that check for Driver
[02:05] <scguy318> ATI drivers are so poor Dell has to ask for better ones :P
[02:05] <Ahadiel> Where is the setting for the Number of desktops?
[02:05] <Ahadiel> i'd like to set it to 4 instead of 2
[02:05] <scguy318> titun: looks related to wireless
[02:05] <wubuntu> thanda: ok, i see it has the ati listed
[02:05] <thanda> wubuntu: fine...that is okay.
[02:05] <titun> scguy318: i have my wireless button closed always
[02:06] <thanda> wubuntu: scroll down further, till Section "Screen"
[02:06] <titun> why it works after a reboot i am clueless
[02:06] <wubuntu> thanda: k, brb
[02:06] <thanda> wubuntu: look for Defaultdepth
[02:06] <seodavid> Hi, when i put in the server disk and boot from it i get "..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to I0-APIC" etc, can anyone help me?
[02:06] <titun> only for this thing i have to boot everyday to xp to use ubuntu, what a shame
[02:07] <SeveredCross> I don't think it's an Ubuntu issue.
[02:07] <wubuntu> thanda: default depth 24
[02:07] <scguy318> seodavid: boot with noapic option
[02:07] <titun> SeveredCross: humm....
[02:07] <seodavid> how do i do that scgut?
[02:07] <seodavid> where would it be?
[02:07] <thanda> wubuntu: that is fine...check out SubSection "Display"
[02:07] <wubuntu> and it says 1024 x 768
[02:07] <scguy318> seodavid: at the screen, press F6, space, add that string, then enter
[02:08] <thanda> wubuntu: that is your resolution...
[02:08] <SeveredCross> seodavid: When you boot the CD, enter noapic as something to pass to the kernel.
[02:08] <SeveredCross> I forget which option you have to select to be able to pass kernel parameters.
[02:08] <ingo> scguy318
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> F6
[02:08] <scguy318> on LiveCD F6
[02:08] <scguy318> yes ingo?
[02:08] <thanda> wubuntu: for Depth 24, do you see the same resolution like 1024x768
[02:08] <seodavid> 1 sec tring now
[02:08] <uptownben> anyone know where I can get some info on setting up my wireless card. (RT61)?
[02:08] <wubuntu> thanda: does that mean that's my *actual resolution?
[02:08] <Tom_> I just had a thought... who had the problem with his touchpad and did he fix it?
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless
[02:08] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:09] <ingo> i try to get a personal chat with you
[02:09] <uptownben> maybe the GUI isnt the way to go as far as setup is concerneed
[02:09] <SeveredCross> Tom_: That was titun and not yet.
[02:09] <thanda> wubuntu: yeah that is your actual resolution...your card can support only that resolution or lower.
[02:09] <seodavid> what is apic anyhoo?
[02:09] <scguy318> APIC
[02:09] <scguy318> timing thingy
[02:09] <scguy318> i forgot wut it stood for
[02:09] <uptownben> I'm installing XUBUNTU on a 4GB CF card.
[02:09] <Tom_> titun: I remember when i had Ubuntu on my laptop... if i had my usb mouse in it wouldnt work (I had to use the mouse), however, if i booted without the mouse i could use the mouse when plugged in and the touchpad aswell
[02:09] <wubuntu> but my sys - prefs - screen res only says 800 x 600 ...
[02:09] <seodavid> o cheers got the setup menu
[02:09] <scguy318> ah, Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
[02:10] <scguy318> handles interrupts
[02:10] <thanda> wubuntu: Just remove other resolution and use "1024x768" for all Depth
[02:10] <titun> Tom_: so what did u do?
[02:10] <titun> used the usb mouse always?
[02:10] <sSiroSoriSs> ladies n gentlemen
[02:10] <Theimon> wubuntu, do you have some info about your screen for us?
[02:10] <SettlerX> "etc/initrd /rc: 2: sed: I/O error", "[...]  SQUASHFS error: unable to read page, block 1c2a65, size 6e2d"
[02:10] <Theimon> brand? type?
[02:10] <thanda> wubuntu: then save the file...and press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[02:10] <SettlerX> "init: /bin/login: input/output error", "init: tty1 respawning too fast, stopped", "init: tty3 main process ended, respawning"
[02:10] <Tom_> remembered to unplug my mouse befoire booting ;)
[02:10] <titun> ah
[02:10] <SettlerX> distr: Xubuntu 7.05
[02:10] <sSiroSoriSs> i've come before you to stand behind you! to tell you something I know nothing about.
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: I hope you made a backup before you started editing that file
[02:11] <SettlerX> Athlon Xp 2000+, 256 MB RAM... why?
[02:11] <SeveredCross> Looks like bad media.
[02:11] <wubuntu> thanda: i don't know what you mean. save the file.  jack, i haven't 'edited'; just opened... should i 'just close it' now?
[02:12] <thanda> wubuntu: yeah...you can do that too. :)
[02:12] <scguy318> wubuntu: Ctrl+S
[02:12] <scguy318> ?
[02:12] <seodavid> This one had vista "ultimate" on it but i have re-installed it 6 times in a month lol, so tried 2 convert 2 ubuntu on this box
[02:12] <wubuntu> scguy318: what is ctrl + s do?
[02:12] <rbanff1> Hi folks. Anyone using Eclipse under Gutsy?
[02:12] <Theimon> save
[02:12] <thanda> wubuntu: but remove all other resolutions and put only "1024x768"
[02:13] <wubuntu> Theimon: so i have to do that, or can i just x it out?
[02:13] <titun> SeveredCross: i remember Feisty live CD worked fine
[02:13] <Theimon> did you change anything?
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Before editing.. save a copy...  just add.orig to the filename
[02:13] <scguy318> why notz sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[02:14] <SeveredCross> titun: Did you change anything in between using the Live CD and having it installled?
[02:14] <Theimon> why dont we get some info on which screen he got :)
[02:14] <titun> SeveredCross: no, nothing i changed
[02:14] <Theimon> that way we can lookup some info on resolutions
[02:14] <instabin|work> anyone use linux mce. i think its based on kubuntu
[02:14] <thanda> wubuntu: If you are finished changing the resolution...then...you can save the file...and exit
[02:14] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: no, i dint change anything, and i don't know how to backup
[02:15] <wubuntu> thanda: can i just x out?
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Simple.. if you are in edit mode.. do a save-as
[02:15] <instabin|work> oh its an addon to kubuntu
[02:15] <thanda> wubuntu: It will be nice if you set all the Modes only to "1024x768"
[02:16] <wubuntu> thanda: but if i din't change anything, i don't have to 'save' anything, right
[02:16] <instabin|work> http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Screenshots
[02:16] <scguy318> yes thats right
[02:16] <wubuntu> they are all set to that resolution in the terminal.  it's up on system - prefs - screen res, that it tells me resolution is 800 x 600
[02:17] <shadowhywind> does anyone know what the difference is between the boot options irqfixup and irqpoll?
[02:17] <AngryElf1> what are some sites that sell ubuntu laptops?
[02:17] <Theimon> yes wubuntu but is that the max resolution youre screen can handle?
[02:17] <thanda> wubuntu: Do you have any other resolution apart from "1024x768" across Modes.
[02:17] <Theimon> dell.com AngryElf1
[02:17] <AngryElf1> site76 or something?
[02:17] <ingo> scguy318: please dcc
[02:17] <AngryElf1> screw dell

[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: If you cant get 1024 res and you manually remove all the others and restartx, I fear a problem..  write this command down womewhere..  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:18] <Lappy> Pici, got any idea on how to fix hte problems?
[02:18] <phenom> I know,, I know.
[02:18] <scguy318> ingo: i havent received any request
[02:18] <wubuntu> thanda: no i guess i can't get it
[02:18] <Theimon> wubuntu ....
[02:18] <Pici> Lappy: I'm not sure, it may just be a current issue with the repos you got c-f from, or something the c-f gurus here or #ubuntu-effects might be able to help you out with.
[02:19] <thanda> wubuntu: do you have that file open....
[02:19] <wubuntu> thanda: yes, but i haven't changed anything in it
[02:19] <SettlerX> SeveredCross: "bad media" = "incorrectly burned CD"?
[02:19] <Lappy> Pici, alright i'll check out that channel
[02:19] <Tom_> SettlerX: or your cd-r is faulty
[02:20] <thanda> wubuntu: Then look for Modes under Section "Screen"
[02:20] <thanda> wubuntu: I am leaving for lunch..will be back

[02:23] <wubuntu> jack_sparrow: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)
[02:24] <AngryElf1> anyone know the status of the bc52xx drivers? last I tried, months ago, it was still pretty flaky, any seriousy progress?
[02:24] <Ahadiel> How would set the number of workspaces in ubuntu?
[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: What type of laptop, just so I know.. and have you tried to manually install any drivers ..
[02:24] <sherkin> emacs depends on libc6 (>= 2.6)
[02:24] <AngryElf1> Ahadiel: right click them
[02:24] <sherkin> I've 2.5 in feisty
[02:24] <Lappy> Ahadiel, right click on the bottom right things, preferences, etc.
[02:24] <Ahadiel> AngryElf1: Tried, no option to change the number
[02:25] <seodavid> Ahadiel: what are you right-clicking? one of the little work space previews?
[02:25] <Ahadiel> I only see two options, "Show only the current workspace" and "Show all workspaces in <blank> rows"
[02:25] <Ahadiel> seodavid: Yeah
[02:25] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: dell lat d600, i don't know if i've tried to manually install drivers, i have a window open to 'configure x.org'
[02:26] <seodavid> Ahadiel: if u right click it norm shows a menu with Preferences, Help etc
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Look at the pastebin info and I would like you to post your xorg.conf in there... then post the link in this channel
[02:26] <seodavid> Ahadiel: normally the first one
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: What editor did you use to have xorg open..
[02:26] <JohnFlux2> I'm trying to umount /home  but it says the filesystem is busy
[02:26] <AngryElf1> Ahadiel: uhm, there's been a Number of workspaces since...a long time, what version are you running
[02:26] <wubuntu> oh, god. lemme look.
[02:27] <Ahadiel> AngryElf1: Gutsy tribe 4
[02:27] <JohnFlux2> anyone know how to see what is using /home?   I've tried fuser  but it shows nothing
[02:27] <Moonshadow> #cdfreaks
[02:27] <Tom_> JohnFlux2: Your profile? try logging in as root (not recommended) and then try :)
[02:27] <sSiroSoriSs> JohnFlux2, I'm glad you asked
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: I would like for you to save a copy of your xorg as a backup... it is simple      just do a save and change the name or do save-as... and give it a new name
[02:28] <JohnFlux2> sSiroSoriSs:)
[02:28] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: fuser -m /home
[02:28] <sSiroSoriSs> + the answer is no. I don't know what is useing your home directory
[02:28] <JohnFlux2> sSiroSoriSs: ah, but I asked if anyone knows.  if you know that you don't know, you still don't know if anyone knows.
[02:28] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: I tried that. it shows nothing
[02:28] <seodavid> Jack_Sparrow: there is a simple command, but if u are in root i would right click the file, copy and rename to whatever.bak
[02:28] <uptownben> xubuntu wont install on 256MB wihtout swap?
[02:28] <predaeus> JohanSalim, also try "lsof | grep /home"
[02:28] <predaeus> sry wrong nick
[02:28] <sSiroSoriSs> JohnFlux2, iceeee
[02:29] <predaeus> JohnFlux2, ^^^
[02:29] <upro> scguy318: You emant me with "build-essentials and plenty opf patience"? I have bth, but how to get the ubuntu patches?
[02:29] <scguy318> uptownben: dont need swap me thinks but its a good idea
[02:29] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: so nothing is using home
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> seodavid: He is already in an editor with the file open...
[02:29] <scguy318> upro: in honestly i dunno, thats what I know about the process
[02:29] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: you mean the terminal where the Package configuration is going?
[02:29] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: yet I cannot umount it :/
[02:29] <JohnFlux2> predaeus: shows nothing either :/
[02:29] <JohnFlux2> is there a way to forcibly umount?
[02:29] <sSiroSoriSs> Shhh. he's comming to get me
[02:29] <wubuntu> or the one scguy said not to edit
[02:30] <upro> scguy318: ok, never mind... I'll figure aout myself...
[02:30] <seodavid> Jack_Sparrow: if its the oridgional, copy the contents to a "new file" and rename?
[02:30] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: if it resits, it's probly with good reason
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Lets close that down.. and start fresh for a sec.. if you dont mind.
[02:30] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: don't care :-D
[02:30] <JohnFlux2> hmm
[02:30] <wubuntu> hold on, while i have an aneurism.
[02:30] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: is /home on its own partition???
[02:30] <predaeus> JohnFlux2, maybe you need to be logged in as root when unmounting /home
[02:30] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo yes
[02:30] <JohnFlux2> predaeus: yep I am
[02:30] <JackPhil> can I compile a dsdt.dsl for another machine?
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> seodavid: That is exactly what I told him to do,
[02:30] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: what's it say on the attempt?
[02:31] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: "device is busy" ?
[02:31] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo:  umount: /home: device is busy
[02:31] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: so i can just close that window without saving, since i din't touch or change anything, right?
[02:31] <JohnFlux2> says it twice
[02:31] <david003> can anyone post me a link to somewhere were i can find tutorials on customizing my desktop?
[02:31] <sherkin> can I force upgrade of libc6 2.5-0ubuntu14 -> 2.6
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf              yes close without saving
[02:31] <Moonshadow> you should look for beryl and gdesklets

[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> david003: If you just want themes try gnome-look.org
[02:32] <JackPhil> anyone?
[02:33] <Frogzoo> SeveredCross: ubuntu != redhat :p

[02:34] <david003> thanks anyway
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> david003: Start with gtk2...
[02:35] <david003> can anyone else explain the difference between metacity and gtk?
[02:35] <david003> kk
[02:35] <omha> fistikuffs, it's supposed to be like that
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: did I lose you?
[02:36] <tim_> can't install anything downloarded
[02:36] <Frogzoo> david003: aluminium-alloy-smog is a v nice os-x lookalike
[02:36] <fistikuffs> omha i don't think it should be i can't do anything with it
[02:36] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: it's gone, i don't know where it went, but it's gone.  now the window i still have3 open is the one headed by 'configuing xserver-xorg... says 'please keep only the resolutions you would like the x server to use.  removing all of them is the same as removing none.... etc... then theres a list of resolutions starting with 1920 x 1440
[02:36] <Ahadiel> About the setting the number of workspaces, here is a screenshot of what I see. http://ahadielstudios.com/~ahadiel/Screenshot.png
[02:36] <tim_> how
[02:36] <wubuntu> and i'm scared to close that now, because i've altered things in previous screens...
[02:36] <fevel> hello
[02:36] <TheimonAfk> wubuntu, just select 1280x1024 and everything beneath that one
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: So that is on another computer right?
[02:36] <omha> fistikuffs, can you type?
[02:36] <TheimonAfk> that highest wont work for your card
[02:37] <TheimonAfk> but it'll use the next best option
[02:37] <icespider69199> david003: are you asking the difference between metacity and gtk themes?
[02:37] <fistikuffs> omha: not into the terminal. its just a blank white screen
[02:37] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: lsof +d /home  ??
[02:37] <mads-> Hey. I have put a cd in my cd-drive. When I try to do a "ls /media/cdrom" it shows me nothing. But when I double click on the icon of the cd on my desktop it opens Rythmbox as if to play music. What shoud I do to list the cd's dirs?
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Just make sure there is a check by 1024 x 768   use the space bar to mark it..
[02:38] <TheimonAfk> mads-, /media/cdrom0 ?
[02:38] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: sorry
[02:38] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: shows nothing
[02:38] <wubuntu> TheimonAfk: the lowest number on there is 1400 x 1050
[02:38] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: bizarre..
[02:38] <mads-> TheimonAfk, I have done the same with that one.. Same result - nothing
[02:38] <TheimonAfk> /mnt/cdrom0 then?
[02:38] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: try it as root 'sudo lsof +d /home'
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Please confirm you are currently here in IRC on a different machine or the one with the problem
[02:39] <mads-> TheimonAfk, nopes.. nada in /mnt/
 TheimonAfk: the lowest number on there is 1400 x 1050 <--------lowest value should be 640x480
[02:39] <fistikuffs> omha: maybe because i set my screen res? i'm using 3rd party nvidia driver
[02:39] <JackPhil> compwiz18, source file  for acpi
[02:39] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: on one and the same
[02:39] <TheimonAfk> mads-, what does ls /media show?
[02:39] <kidbuntu> how do you turn on the tilda on your keyboard in ubuntu 7.04.
[02:39] <mads-> cdrom, cdrom0 and sda1
[02:39] <mads-> TheimonAfk, cdrom, cdrom0 and sda1
[02:40] <wubuntu> can i just close out of that configuration, since i haven't finished and saved it?
[02:40] <TheimonAfk> hmm can you navigate to /media/cdrom0?
[02:40] <JohnFlux2> AH
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: You dont want to write that config back to the system...  keep hitting enter until it asks if you want to write the new config and say NO.
[02:40] <wubuntu> i'm getting nervous cuz i've been up all nite, and i cant think straight
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Yes, get out of there.
[02:40] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: sorted it out.  turns out that it was NFS that was locking it down.  it doesn't show up because nfs runs in the kernel
[02:41] <TheimonAfk> mads- ..
[02:41] <TheimonAfk> hmm can you navigate to /media/cdrom0?
[02:41] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: I found a hint from google :)
[02:41] <mads-> TheimonAfk, Yeah. But when I do "ls -a" nothing apperas but ". .."
[02:41] <JohnFlux2> Frogzoo: stopping nfsserver fixed it
[02:41] <babau> Hi guys, I've got an iPod running rockbox mounted, and I'm having permissions issues. The disk is formatted FAT32, however I can only write files to it as root. Chowning or changing permissions fails on all directories (using sudo of course). I've been told that FAT32 has no permissions or owners as such, but if this is the case why can't I write to the disk as my normal user?
[02:41] <wubuntu> but i think i'm having a prob moving forward from that screen
[02:41] <TheimonAfk> is that device mounted?
[02:41] <wubuntu> lemme try
[02:41] <greenkobold> I found docs for 2 options to make things simpler in making a custom ubuntu liveCD. As i undertood:
[02:41] <greenkobold> uck - With which I take an iso image, mount it and than customize its packages
[02:41] <greenkobold> bootcdwrite - that can make a live CD ou DVD from my running distro
[02:42] <greenkobold> I never did something like that, I am not trying to approach a great livecd and It can be a DVD, no problem. It should be done so i can locally share a in development app. Did anyone try these out already and could point me which is the simplest way to do this? I am hoping that the ubuntu community has somewhat tackled this kind of stuff
[02:42] <Frogzoo> JohnFlux2: cool
[02:42] <seodavid> Thank you people, it has gone in. See u round.

[02:46] <fistikuffs> hi i'm using the latest nvidia driver and i set my screen res in the nvidia configuration tool and now my terminal is just a blank screen can't type anything into it. I didn't back up any config files before doing this. should i just re-install ubuntu?

[02:49] <compwiz18> JackPhil, as long as the computer you are building it on has the same arch (ie, 32bit or 64bit) as the destination computer, you should be ok

[02:49] <Theimon> then general options
[02:49] <Pici> zpertee: an iso file?
[02:50] <Theimon> then desktop size
[02:50] <Pici> zpertee: a dd disk image?
[02:50] <Theimon> then horizontal size
[02:50] <Theimon> set it to 4
[02:50] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: yes. is it safe to breathe now?
[02:50] <Ahadiel> Theimon: kk, will do
[02:50] <zpertee> Pici i used qemu-img to convert it to a raw file format
[02:50] <thanda> wubuntu: Do you get the resolution now...
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Yes... now try this...   gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:51] <MosaSaur> sudo aptitude install bcm43xx-fwcutter  <== this fails and keeps remembering me of it everytime when I install some other package, is there some way to give it the files it needs
[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: I want you to copy and paste that to the pastebin which I linked to you earlier
[02:51] <Arafangion> Hey, what's a good OS if I want a laptop OS that allows me to resume instantly and everything appears exactly how I left it?
[02:51] <wubuntu> no, i am afraid to do anything more
[02:51] <Arafangion> Without using standby.
[02:51] <wubuntu> i don't know pastebins
[02:51] <Ahadiel> Arafangion: There's an option in Gutsy for that.
[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: You may have already hosed things up... and you will not crash until you reboot.
[02:51] <Theimon> ...
[02:51] <Theimon> :/
[02:52] <wubuntu> omg
[02:52] <thanda> wubuntu: can you send the file to raavi_mohindar@yahoo.co.in
[02:52] <Arafangion> Ahadiel: I would doubt that very much.
[02:52] <Ahadiel> Arafangion: I think I just saw it, hold on.
[02:52] <Theimon> Ahadiel, did it work?
[02:52] <Pici> zpertee: Normally to mount an image, you do something like `sudo mount -o loop filename.iso /mnt/point`  You could try that with your disk image
[02:52] <fistikuffs> jack_sparow: sorry i got disconnected can you still help?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: If you made changes....   they will take effect when you restart...  I want to avoid that..
[02:52] <Ahadiel> Theimon: X crashed, about to try
[02:52] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: so what to i do?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> fistikuffs: I am still busy...  just ask and someone will answer

[02:53] <anthony> hi, is there a way to stop the boxes in the window list from resizing all the time?

[02:53] <Theimon> fistikuffs, when you boot up and the system gives you nothing, can you bring up another tty by pressing ctrl+alt+f3 ?
[02:53] <Arafangion> Ahadiel: Yes, Gnome's had that feature for a while, guess Gutzy's finally making it more obvious.
[02:53] <JohnFlux2> How do I resize an ext3 partition?

[02:56] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow:  it opened xorg.conf again
[02:56] <icespider69199> could someone help me add a samba share to my library in Banshee or Exaile?

[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: I want you to copy your xorg and paste it into the web page....  then it will give you a link # so I can see it..
[02:58] <cberlo> Hi folks.  I know that directory authentication integration is scheduled for a future release, but I'm having some trouble with a trusted domain and I'm hoping someone has an answer for me.  Can anyone explain how I'd authenticate against a trusted domain (W2K3) after having joined my primary domain (W2K3), when there is no trusting relationship back?  I think I need to provide credentials to the trusted domain in order to get anywhere, but I can't figure o
[02:58] <Pelo> morning guys,  I have a cron issue that I have narrowed down to an sendmail error,  can anyone take a look and help me figure out why my own domain name is not recognised ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33813/
[02:58] <cberlo> fistikuffs: At the boot menu, if you've only got Ubuntu on there, hit Escape to see the menu.  There's a "safe mode" option.
[02:58] <Pelo> I'm pretty sure this line is the solution but I have no idea how t fix  Aug 15 08:11:03 jean-desktop sendmail[13609] : My unqualified host name (jean-desktop) unknown; sleeping for retry
[02:59] <fistikuffs> cbelro: i can boot into that mode but i don't know how to do anything with it:(
[02:59] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: ok, so just do a simple select all, copy/paste into the textarea on that browser?
[02:59] <Theimon> fistikuffs, is it just the terminal window which goes blank?
[03:00] <cberlo> fistikuffs: do you know how to use nano at all, and/or what you're trying to edit?  :)
[03:00] <Pici> Pelo: My only idea whould be to check /etc/hosts to make sure it has an entry for jean-desktop
[03:00] <fistikuffs> theimon: so far yes. there seems to be other graphical glitches
[03:00] <Theimon> right
[03:00] <Theimon> youre using ubuntu?
[03:00] <fistikuffs> cberlo: sorry don't know nano

[03:01] <cberlo> fistikuffs: how about vi?  <hehe>
[03:01] <Pici> fistikuffs: nano is pretty easy to use, it has all the shortcuts listed at the bottom of the screen
[03:01] <Theimon> you can see panels?
[03:01] <Pelo> pici this is what I have in /etc/hosts     127.0.0.1	localhost
[03:01] <Pelo> 127.0.1.1	jean-desktop
[03:01] <genii> fistikuffs: There is a short list at bottom of nano screen when you are in it with some shortcuts. the caret (^) means ctrl key
[03:01] <fistikuffs> pici: i'll have a look but i don't really know what i'm doing this is my first time to use linux
[03:02] <Theimon> fistikuffs, can you see panels and other windows?

[03:06] <Theimon> nice job elkbuntu
[03:06] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: It doesnt help to forward the list to the user, the reason it prints in the channel is to hilight those people.

[03:07] <elkbuntu> Pici, we ask people to do that so we know who to look to
[03:07] <trtr3434> where is my program and how do i install java
[03:07] <Theimon> fistikuffs ?
[03:07] <elkbuntu> Pici, it makes it a whole lot faster in a busy channel, especially where the misbehaviour does not stand out immediately
[03:07] <Pici> elkbuntu: Jack_Sparrow; I meant with >, but nevermind, just trying to be helpful :)
[03:07] <IdleOne> !java | trtr3434
[03:07] <ubotu> trtr3434: 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
[03:08] <JohnFlux2> I have a 4TB LVM filesystem, and I want to split it into 400GB and the rest.  Any idea how best to do this? :)
[03:08] <elkbuntu> Pici, the ops have the factoid call in their highlight lists anyway, since it's useful if the bot disappears
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: No harm no foul.. both trying to do the same thing..

[03:10] <scriptha> When I try to install apache2, it doesnt make the /etc/apache2 dir..
[03:10] <scriptha> This is after a reinstall btw
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu:  You still here?... I want you to bring up the backup that was made of that file.. you posted the number earlier
[03:11] <Frogzoo> scriptha: you have a problem - usually it works fine
[03:11] <ParaDoX34690> hey, i have a directory that I can't remove (even as root). I'm being told that the directory is not empty, but when I bring up the contents, there's NOTHING in it (even in terminal)... What am I don't wrong???
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: I hope it is your original xorg before the changes.
 What is metapackage for all: java flash acroread etc... ? <------- ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[03:11] <scguy318> hidden files?
[03:11] <Frogzoo> ParaDoX34690: ls -a
[03:11] <johnf> anyone know of LVM brokenness in gutsy? my /dev/mapper/vg0-var etc have disappeared after reboot.
[03:11] <scguy318> *ls -al
[03:11] <scriptha> Frogzoo, I know I have a problem..
[03:12] <Pici> johnf: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy issues :)

[03:12] <Frogzoo> scriptha: df -h /etc
[03:12] <scriptha> What does that do?
[03:12] <Pici> ParaDoX34690: or use rm -rf directoryname, that will clear out the contents.
[03:13] <scriptha> Frogzoo, what next?
[03:13] <stev2> anyone know the apt repository line for VLC?
[03:13] <ParaDoX34690> Pici: okay, that was going to be the next question :)
[03:13] <sSiroSoriSs> i have a question reguarding virtual machines where can i go?
[03:14] <ParaDoX34690> thanks all, that was perfect
[03:14] <ParaDoX34690> gtg
[03:14] <Frogzoo> scriptha: df -h /etc  ??

[03:14] <scguy318> wuts the question sSiroSoriSs?
[03:14] <sSiroSoriSs> i have a question reguarding virtual machines........ will windows detect my winsoft modem in a virtual machine while linux hosts the virtual machine? (linux doesn't support the winmodem)
[03:15] <Frogzoo> scriptha: 32bit feisty?
[03:15] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: and thanda: question for you, doc... if i reboot and i screwed it all up, what will the symptoms be, and what remedy?
[03:15] <scguy318> probably not
[03:15] <palintheus> sSiroSoriSs: Im pretty sure the hardware has to be supported by ubuntu to be supported in a VM
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: You will be at a cli prompt
[03:15] <scguy318> a VM supplies its own set of virtual hardware
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: You will not get into Gnome/Ubuntu..
[03:15] <Theimon> sSiroSoriSs, you can bridge the network right?
[03:15] <trtr3434> how to send file using xchat
[03:15] <scriptha> Frogzoo, yes, and the problems started after the upgrade :*
[03:16] <sSiroSoriSs> Theimon, nope
[03:16] <thanda> wubuntu: Nothing will be screwed up...because you just edited the xorg.conf file...
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Write down this command  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg    select vesa and simple modes...
[03:16] <IdleOne> trtr3434: ask in #xchat
[03:16] <Frogzoo> scriptha: upgrade of apache2? or upgrade from edgy?
[03:16] <wubuntu> so what would i do, resinstall ubuntu?
[03:16] <scriptha> from edgy
[03:16] <thanda> wubuntu: Even you don't get the graphical stuff...still you can work on command line...no worries...
[03:16] <sSiroSoriSs> + windows wont detect my ubuntu sound card in vm
 how to send file using xchat <-----------right click on name --> send a file
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: If that dosent work go deeper and do the entire file with  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:16] <thanda> wubuntu: I don't think, it is necessary to reinstall..
[03:16] <Frogzoo> scriptha: tried uninstalling & reinstalling apache2 ?
[03:16] <scguy318> VMs supply virtual hardware to the guest
[03:16] <scriptha> After I upgraded, apache didnt recognize php files anymore
[03:16] <scguy318> so VMs dont see the host's hardware at all
[03:17] <scriptha> yes, reinstalling, purging after that
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: No need to reinstall....
[03:17] <scriptha> didnt work
[03:17] <IdleOne> Theimon: dcc is disabled on freenode IIRC
[03:17] <wubuntu> thanda: maybe not necessary, but possible, right?
[03:17] <Theimon> ok, but it was a broad question :)
[03:17] <aldair> hi
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Alwasy possible
[03:17] <thanda> wubuntu: Its is possible. :) Tell me, what version of Ubuntu do you use now?
[03:17] <Theimon> so usually........ :) ------>rightclick user ---> send a file

[03:18] <greenkobold> guys, thanks for the reconstructor tip. before i dive in, two questions: does it support kubuntu and could I copy some folder to the livecd's desktop?
[03:18] <wubuntu> what i don't get, is that the xorg is saying i have 1024, but i can't believe this screen is 1024, its too fuzzy... 1024 on a tv would be hidef, and you could see a sty on a fly; not so this monitor

[03:19] <Moez> Hello ! I have a ScanJet 3200C HP Scanner and i would like to use it under Ubuntu but i don't have the driver.
[03:19] <sinn> can you tell me the ports or where i can find them
[03:19] <Theimon> greenkobold, 1) i believe so, 2) no idea
[03:19] <Theimon> hold on sinn
[03:19] <sinn> thanks
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> greenkobold: You may have a problem copying folder to the desktop but it should work

[03:20] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: and thanda: so, then, it's time to system restart??
[03:20] <scriptha> How could that help? :*
[03:20] <thanda> wubuntu: Okay...Good luck.
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> greenkobold: It may not see it, it may have permission problems.. etc..
[03:20] <Frogzoo> scriptha: the first 2 chars are status
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Not yet..
[03:20] <Pici> greenkobold: Anything you add to the livecd install gets installed in your ram, so you need to have enough.
[03:20] <Frogzoo> scriptha: supposedly installed fine
[03:20] <Theimon> sinn, you can specify ports in Preferences -- > Network ---> Network Settings.
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: Use gedit again and bring up the backup xorg that was created for you.
[03:20] <sinn> ok thanks Theimon
[03:20] <Theimon> it shows full range now (the 0)
[03:21] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: where do i find it?
[03:21] <qetuR> help
[03:21] <Theimon> but specify a range, then go to your router settings and forward those exact ports

[03:21] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: It will be in the same folder with that long numbered extension
[03:21] <Theimon> wubuntu, its the xorg.conf with all those numbers behind it
[03:21] <Moez> An idea for my scanner. I make webcomics, so a scanner is very necessery for me.
[03:22] <qetuR> I just bought a 500Gb harddrive (FAT32) and i plugg it in (USB 2.0) and the computer doesnt recognises it

[03:22] <Pici> !hi > UberPsyX
[03:22] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: so i look on computer, or desktop, or wubuntu, or where?
[03:22] <fredl> hi guys, not really an Ubuntu question, but I recently added a (third) disk to my system which is a PATA disk. It installed itself before the two SATA disks that had both Ubuntu and XP on it. Not a big deal as I wanted to do a new (64 bit) install of Ubuntu anyways. However, my XP does not start anymore now. GRUB sees it alright and starts loading it, but because XP thinks it's installed on the first disk it thinks it can boot up from there.
[03:22] <univremonster> UberPsyX; hear you loud and clear
[03:22] <UberPsyX> thanks
[03:22] <UberPsyX> and it isnt working :P
[03:22] <scguy318> fredl: pastebin your menu.lst
[03:23] <Frogzoo> scriptha: dpkg -l apache2.2-common
[03:23] <univremonster> qetuR:  I Have very little experience with this, but you may want to run gParted and see if it shows up
[03:23] <wubuntu> only been installed for 3 days, so i don't have any files, i don't really understand linux file system yet.  i dumdum.
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: One sec... you need to take abreath and read what we say,...  you sound exhausted.
[03:23] <genii> If i had for instance 32Gb of ram and wanted to run / from a ramdisk and not off disk what would be the basic idea? Study casper or so for clues?
[03:23] <Pici> fredl: Might want to ask in ##windows, I guess come back if they think its an issue with grub
[03:23] <wubuntu> but i go look.
[03:23] <greenkobold> Pici: well, to my /temp !!! :-)
[03:24] <scriptha> Frogzoo, its saying ii as well

[03:25] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.

 It's in the repos?
[03:26] <greenkobold> nop, i want to make a livecd
[03:26] <univremonster> kefka; no, but there's a deb available here:   http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=Pidgin
 Awesome! Thanks
[03:26] <univremonster> kefka; no prob.
[03:26] <greenkobold> Pici: (need to make) thats all
[03:27] <scguy318> fredl: i'm not all that comfy with GRUB, but I'd imagine you'd tweak the root
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> wubuntu: If that does have the old resolutions and If you get stuck on reboot you can... sudo nano  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20070815084556      then Ctrl-O   and save it as xorg.conf  and get back to where you were

[03:27] <Theimon> ofcourse
[03:27] <univremonster> I have the install DVD for XP
[03:27] <univremonster> Theimon; are you writing to me?
[03:27] <Theimon> vmware makes his own HDD
[03:27] <Pici> greenkobold: Not at all.
[03:28] <Theimon> yes sorry
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> univremonster: Wine does not need a windows partition...
[03:28] <greenkobold> :-), i fell happy with that news, thanks, have to go now

[03:28] <ubotu> greenkobold I think theres some things here about customizing the install/livecd: 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
[03:28] <univremonster> Jack_sparrow:  Does VMplayer?  I have that installed, and a virtual machine downloaded
[03:28] <Theimon> univremonster, vmware will ask how big the HDD must be and what type of OS you will be installing
[03:28] <Theimon> hmm player
[03:28] <scriptha> Frogzoo, it made the /apache2 dir but not the config file
[03:28] <Theimon> i dont know, I got workstation
[03:28] <fredl> scguy318 - yeah that sounds logical, you know what's the meaning of the the 'map' lines under the sdb1 section?
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> univremonster: No idea...
[03:29] <univremonster> Theimon:  i was going to do that but the VMware website said 64-bit Fiesty was not supported
[03:29] <solekiller_> humz i use dell wi-fi 1390 and it recognizes it has broadcom
[03:29] <solekiller_> blah
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> univremonster: Better off with 32 bit
[03:29] <greenkobold> ubotu: thanks, i really have to move now, i'll read these later with care
[03:29] <univremonster> Jack_Sparrow:  Wine doesn't seem to be in my repos and supposedly it works a lot better with 32... how would I get it to do the force architecture voodoo?
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: I have  couple of those and they work fine with fwcutter..not ndiswrapper
[03:30] <qetuR> I just bought a 500Gb harddrive (FAT32) and i plugg it in (USB 2.0) and the computer doesnt recognises it
[03:30] <solekiller_> will i be able to use scanning and stuff?
[03:30] <qetuR> how should i do?
[03:30] <Theimon> qetuR, is the USB port activated?
[03:30] <Jack_Sparrow> univremonster: No idea...
[03:30] <qetuR> yes
[03:30] <qetuR> Theimon, It recognizes my iPod
[03:30] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: yes
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: Wifi radar takes a tweek.. and I dont know what it was.. but was told common issue and an easy fix
[03:31] <qetuR> Theimon, Any ide?
[03:31] <Frogzoo> scriptha: dpkg -L apache2.2-common |grep 'apache2[.] conf'
[03:31] <Theimon> not really no
[03:31] <solekiller_> till now i thought i had a bcm43xx
[03:31] <solekiller_> lol
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: It id a bcm43xx
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> is
[03:32] <Frogzoo> scriptha: should give: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[03:32] <solekiller_> it is?
[03:32] <solekiller_> so whats the diff?
[03:32] <scriptha> it does
[03:32] <solekiller_> oh thats only the chipset
[03:32] <scriptha> it gives the path
[03:32] <solekiller_> i used the bcm43xx driver didnt work
[03:32] <scriptha> but the files doesnt exits
[03:32] <solekiller_> it recognizes and all
[03:32] <scriptha> exist*
[03:32] <solekiller_> but still
[03:32] <solekiller_> cant see other devices
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: Sorry folks..fat fingers this morning...   I need to go do something for the wife.. should only be a few minutes.. but....
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: How did you install the driver?
[03:33] <solekiller_> say if i have a certine chipset why does all the rest matter if it compatible like the revision and stuff
[03:33] <solekiller_> umm
[03:33] <solekiller_> basiclly it came with the kernel
[03:33] <univremonster> Jack_Sparrow:  sorry to keep bothering you.  I have VMplayer installed, running, and a virtual machine (WinXP) downloaded.  I have the WinXP DVD in the player.  VMplayer tells me "operating system not found".  Any ideas?
[03:34] <hemal> i have question on using samba from live cd
[03:34] <solekiller_> and it didnt work properlly it didnt notice other interfaces
[03:34] <Theimon> well, you cant really install anythin on player right?
[03:34] <solekiller_> so i used ndis wrapper
[03:34] <solekiller_> and all worked fine but then i couldnt monitor or scan
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> solekiller_: Read the docs and install fwcutter from the repos.. it is painless..   ndiswrapper was wrong...
[03:35] <hemal> immediately after doing shared folder thing, i should be able access the folders, without username and password, right?
[03:35] <sherkin> Hi, I just added a comment (about emacs22) on https://bugs.launchpad.net/feisty-backports/+bug/120905. I hope its clear enough ?
[03:35] <Theimon> univremonster, you cant use the install DVD because XP cant install another copy over itself
[03:35] <univremonster> Theimon:  It wouldn't be over itself, i have no Windows partition
[03:35] <univremonster> I am hoping to keep it that way :-)
[03:35] <Theimon> yes you do..............in the vm :)
[03:35] <Lazureus> i have a huge problem and i don't know how to fix it.
[03:35] <solekiller_> this one? http://packages.debian.org/testing/utils/bcm43xx-fwcutter
[03:35] <univremonster> Theimon:  so I should try to run it without the DVD?
[03:36] <Theimon> vmware assigns a virtual HDD to the OS
[03:36] <Pici> sherkin: You'll probably get a better response if you ask for feedback in #ubuntu-bugs :)
[03:36] <sherkin> Could I consider to rebuild the package (I'm not a geek ;) ?
[03:36] <Theimon> you already got the virtual machine
[03:36] <thanda> Lazureus: What is your problem?
[03:36] <Theimon> that is the HDD in fact
[03:36] <Lazureus> awhile back, i installed an nvidia card, and the nvidia driver , and it worked fine. i did not change anything at all, and suddenly when i boot up it no longer loads the nvidia driver, and i cant get into x at all anymore
[03:36] <wubuntu> Jack_Sparrow: i looked in the /etc file, and cannot find a backup file
[03:36] <sherkin> thanks Pici
[03:36] <Lazureus> it loaded fine before
[03:36] <wubuntu> i looked everywhere
[03:36] <Frogzoo> scriptha: dunno
[03:36] <thanda> Lazureus:  Did your made any system upgrade, before the boot...
[03:36] <sherkin> I forgot about the channel
[03:36] <Theimon> univremonster, the extension of the virtuall machine is probably vmdk
[03:37] <thanda> Lazureus: I mean, before the reboot...
[03:37] <Lazureus> it worked fine the last time i was in it, and all i did before i rebooted that time was basically misc stuff like xchat and such
[03:37] <hemal> i have question on using samba from live cd...is this the wrong place?
[03:37] <thanda> Lazureus: Did you installed nvidia drivers by yourself...or...
[03:37] <univremonster> Theimon:  with the disk out I get the same errors... can I fix this by editing vmdk?
[03:37] <Avt3kk> hi; how do I update dapper to feasty? feasty is the latest ya?
[03:37] <Lazureus> i instaled them according to a guide, to get beryl working, and they worked fine when i did so
[03:37] <Lazureus> but after two reboots since, it broke
[03:37] <Lazureus> it says
[03:38] <Theimon> univremonster, you need to see the difference between player and workstation...
[03:38] <Lazureus> "API mismatch: this nvidia driver component has version 100.14.11, but the NVIDIA kernel module's version does not match.
[03:38] <thanda> Lazureus: The reason could be, you might have upgraded the system...which in turn upgrades the kernel...
[03:38] <Theimon> private chat for a sec?
[03:38] <Lazureus> so how do i fix it then
[03:38] <univremonster> sure
[03:38] <thanda> Lazureus: How many kernel list do you see in Grub
[03:38] <omha> Lazureus, used envy or nvidia.com drivers?
[03:38] <Lazureus> the last time i upgraded was before i got the nvidia card
[03:38] <Lazureus> still using ubuntu 7.04
[03:38] <Lazureus> i do believe it was nvidia.com
[03:38] <Avt3kk> guys?
[03:39] <gcostello> !upgrade > Avt3kk
[03:39] <Avt3kk> how
[03:39] <solekiller_> bloody error
[03:39] <Avt3kk> o
[03:39] <thanda> Lazureus: Do you know envy, this is a debain package....for installing nvidia drivers...
[03:39] <solekiller_> im reinstalling ubuntu
[03:39] <solekiller_> blag
[03:39] <Lazureus> hmm nope i'm afraid not
[03:39] <omha> Lazureus, try to use the restricted-manger to install the driver that comes with ubuntu
[03:39] <Leeds> quick question: ntfs read/write support on the live CD?
[03:39] <Lazureus> that'd be great if i could get into x
[03:39] <Lazureus> =p
[03:40] <thanda> Lazureus: Try this...http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/envy_0.9.7-0ubuntu7_all.deb
[03:40] <Lazureus> i dont know really hardly any console commands to get around in the terminal
[03:40] <omha> Lazureus, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select vese/nv to get X back
[03:40] <omha> sudo infront*
[03:40] <thanda> Lazureus: You don't need any console commands...envy has graphical interface.
[03:41] <Lazureus> ok

[03:45] <omha> thanda, it can break your system and totally kill gfx it's recommended to use the restricted-manger then you then ubuntu will keep it updated and breakage free
[03:45] <anandanbu> How to safely remove the Xubuntu installed in my ubuntu 7.04 system without affecting any other
[03:45] <Frogzoo> scriptha: here's probably best
[03:45] <univremonster> Theimon; hmmm, well I have pidgin but haven't set that up
[03:45] <univremonster> give me a min?
[03:45] <Frogzoo> scriptha: you should try search launchpad too
[03:45] <scriptha> Frogzoo, found a apache2.conf.gz
[03:45] <Theimon> you try open a window.....it should work
[03:45] <omha> anandanbu, sudo apt-get remove xbuntu-desktop
[03:45] <scriptha> in docs
[03:45] <thanda> omha: I am aware of that, it builds custom packages and installs the same.
[03:45] <scriptha> unzipped and moved but it gives an error
[03:45] <anandanbu> omha: will that affect any of my ubuntu system apps
[03:45] <univremonster> Theimon, did you get it?
[03:46] <Lazureus> yeah i cant get into the restricted drivers manager. it just brings up a box "in order for this computer to function properly, Ubuntu may be using driver software that cannot be supported" and it shows one thing "Lucent/Agere linmodem controller driver", which i don't even have a modem at all
[03:46] <giri> Hi All, I keep getting a static sound from my speakers. Can anyone help me on this?
[03:46] <Theimon> nothing
[03:46] <Frogzoo> scriptha: what worries me more is why it's not installing
[03:46] <Theimon> do we need to register at freenode for PM?
[03:46] <Lazureus> the only option it gives me, is to close it altogether
[03:46] <Theimon> that could be the problem
[03:46] <univremonster> !private chat
[03:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about private chat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:46] <thanda> giri: What do you mean by static sound?
[03:46] <Theimon> !pm
[03:46] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[03:46] <scriptha> Frogzoo, it seems like it installed everything except the config file
[03:46] <Theimon> hmm
[03:47] <giri> Thanda: a cackling sound.. I think the sound comes at high frequencies.
[03:47] <thanda> giri: Do you get that all time after you get into graphical mode or...
[03:47] <Theimon> univremonster, i noticed the problem
[03:47] <univremonster> Theimon; what was it?

[03:48] <giri> Thanda: I keep getting it all the time. As soon as I log into ubuntu.
[03:48] <univremonster> Theimon: well that's very un-linuxy and restrictive
[03:48] <thanda> giri: try killall aplay on the console
[03:48] <Theimon> yeah well, if it keeps the spam out........hooray :)

[03:51] <scriptha> Is there a way to regenerate the apache2.conf, like it would be when installed?

[03:51] <kanedaddy> ok

[03:52] <scriptha> Doesnt work
[03:52] <giri> Thanda: I even tried playing around with the ALSA mixer (suggested by someone on the ubuntu forums) but it did not help... Yes the volume changes... But as the volume increases, so does my noise...

[04:04] <_nixMan> what's the diffference between ubuntu server and desktop edition?
[04:05] <giri> Thanda: I have pasted another copy of "top" output at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33826/
[04:05] <giri> Thanda: I am working on a desktop
[04:05] <gnuskool> _nixman, server will give you more server applications at install, such as php, mysql, apache, desktop will just be the base system, some apps, etc
[04:05] <gnuskool> _nixman, however, you can still install those server applications afterwards
[04:05] <mrjones> ubuntu always ejects my cds.. does somebody know the problem?
[04:05] <thanda> giri: what sound card do you have?
[04:06] <Pici> _nixMan: And server doesnt include xwindows by default.
[04:06] <thanda> giri: In pastebin, I don't find anything....they are just normal processes...
[04:06] <gnuskool> _nixman, it depends on what you wanna use ubuntu for
[04:06] <giri> Thanda: I am using a Sound MAX card...
[04:07] <tourain> mrjones: have you already installed ubuntu?
[04:07] <thanda> giri: is it 2:1 or x:1....
[04:07] <Lucios> Hi
[04:07] <preglow> could someone please check if the packages "prosper" and "feynmf" are broken? they're reported broken here and i've tried several repos
[04:07] <Lucios> wanna ask about gdm theme
[04:07] <Lucios> how to use it?
[04:07] <mrjones> tourain: yes, when i want to rip a cd for example, after a few seconds the tray opens
[04:07] <giri> Thanda: I am sorry I do not understand.. How do I find the info that you are asking?
[04:07] <Pici> !changethemes | Lucios read this
[04:07] <ubotu> Lucios read this: To change your themes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy.  Kubuntu users should visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu.
[04:08] <thanda> giri: I mean, 2:1 or 5:1 or 7:1 output....
[04:08] <_nixMan> so basically the server and desktop are the exact same thing but install different things during the initial setup? i don't get more or less by choosing either/or?
[04:08] <gnuskool> :P
[04:08] <giri> Thanda: 2:1
[04:08] <theo_> what would happen if i put my hdd with ubuntu into an old computer and boot (pc specs: 800MHz
[04:08] <thanda> giri: very strange...
[04:08] <TheimonAfk> it'd probably boot :)
[04:09] <TheimonAfk> theo_,
[04:09] <tourain> mrjones: does the cd player recognizes your cd?
[04:09] <TheimonAfk> happened here too
[04:09] <TheimonAfk> had an old setup with ubuntu feisty
[04:09] <giri> Thanda: Another things I just noticed just now: The crackling sound becomes more pronounced as I type something on my keyboard..
[04:09] <theo_> yes?
[04:09] <tourain> mrjones: you don't get a message like "no cd inside the cd player"?
[04:09] <TheimonAfk> installed new hardware but forgot to boot from cd, it booted up and recognized most of the new hardware
[04:09] <mrjones> yes, it starts reading and then, after a few seconds, it opens
[04:09] <thanda> giri: I think you have a microphone....
[04:09] <mrjones> tourain: no
[04:10] <thanda> giri: Do use headphone or normal speakers...
[04:10] <mrjones> tourain: it just opens
[04:10] <TheimonAfk> theo_, but still fresh install is the best thing to do
[04:10] <giri> Thanda: I use normal speakers...
[04:10] <gnuskool> _nixman, the server install is text only after install. When you reboot you gonna be met with a prompt at a command line, no mouse, icons, so if you want a mouse icons, then take the desktop route. Essentially a server install takes away the eye-candy leaving just bare eesentials
[04:10] <thanda> giri: Could you unplug the speakers and re-plug again....
[04:10] <Lucios> !gtk theme
[04:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtk theme - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <giri> It does not help... :(
[04:11] <recon> Is there any way to get rid of that "Foo is not currently installed" message when you try to run a command from bash that isn't installed?
[04:11] <tourain> mrjones: strange..if nobody can help you here on irc i suggest you open a thread on the ubuntu forum
[04:11] <mrjones> tourain: ok ill do so.... its really strange xD
[04:11] <thanda> giri: check the pins properly...please...I hope, some miss-connections...
[04:12] <mrjones> tourain: but thanks
[04:12] <tourain> mrjones: good luck
[04:12] <mrjones> tourain: thx, bye
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Do I need more than one port forwareded from my router to enable VNC from another computer...I have 5900 forwarded now.
[04:12] <gnuskool> _nixman, does that make it more clear?
[04:12] <Lucios> how to install gtk theme?
[04:13] <giri> Thanda: I have plugged the speakers into the green jack.. If i plug it into any other jack, I do not hear any sound at all
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Lucios: Drag and drop the tar file on the open theme manager.. Ubuntu.Gnome) not kde
[04:13] <Pici> Lucios: Everything about changing themes was in that link that ubotu sent you.
[04:13] <scriptha> Ok I give up, apache says invalid command Alias
[04:13] <giri> Also, I notice that my speakers work fine with WinXP.. Does that throw any light??
[04:13] <scriptha> I tried lighttpd before, but it couldnt open a php file
[04:13] <_nixMan> gnuskool: yes... if i install gnome on a server though i would have desktop and mouse and all that stuff though right?
[04:13] <thanda> giri: Look properly...that you are plugging audio to audio out....normally the audio out is indicated with a head-phone symbol
[04:13] <wolferine> YES!
[04:14] <wolferine> im ..... back.....
[04:14] <andyn> hello, new to ubuntu...is this the right place to ask questions
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Yes.. just ask
[04:14] <giri> Yes,  I am indeed connected to the audio out..
[04:14] <thanda> giri: one try....could you restart the X-server...and look what is in the top....
[04:15] <giri> I am infact able to hear the music when I play some... But it is just that I am also hearing this noise in the background...
[04:16] <andyn> am trying to load ubuntu server on a new machine and when it gets to paritioning, appears to stop at between 33 to 74 % and not finish
[04:16] <boris_> when i try to start Desktop Effects it says "The Composite extension is not available"
[04:16] <gnuskool> _nixman, precisely, from a server install you'd have to add X server, then gnome you'd get what's otherwise known as desktop ubuntu, more or less.
[04:16] <boris_> beryl refuses to work as well
[04:16] <thanda> giri: I suspect it is the startup sound from ubuntu...which is still there....
[04:16] <boris_> but it worked 2 days ago
[04:16] <PriceChild> boris_, #ubuntu-effects please
[04:16] <boris_> ok PriceChild thank you and sorry
[04:16] <moofoo> hello, is there a way to switch the gcc version in ubuntu ( there seems to be no "update-alternatives --config gcc" or so)? i want to temporary have gcc-3.4 running...
[04:17] <giri> No No.. This sound is like a static noise... Just like one coming from a badly tuned radio....
[04:17] <sahil> is there any way  to configure the windows key to pop open my applications menu?
[04:17] <thanda> giri: You can disable the startup sounds....System->Preference->sound....please disable all the sounds
[04:17] <kazzmir> hey, is there an equivalent of start->run in ubuntu so i dont have to create a terminal just to run a program?
[04:17] <MilitantPotato> andyn: yes this is a place for ubuntu help
[04:18] <thanda> giri: Did you see System Sounds on Sound Preferences...
[04:18] <giri> Thanda: Infact I found this forum where others also have faced similar problems... It is just that their solutions did not work for me...
[04:18] <SirBob1701> kazzmir: ALT+F

[04:18] <giri> Thanda: Here is the link to the forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=508448

[04:19] <SirBob1701> kazzmir: ALT+F2
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> giri: Did it ever work right
[04:19] <andyn> Hi Militant...am having trouble installing Ubuntu of any flavor on a new machine and it stops forward progress at the partitioning section...have let it run for over 24 hours and still no progress past 74%
[04:19] <car_watt> hi all
[04:19] <thanda> giri: may be startup sounds use different dev for sound...
[04:19] <kazzmir> SirBob1701, oh ok thanks
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Did you have the cd do a self test for errors?
[04:19] <WeeJeWel> How can I see what window manager is running?
[04:20] <giri> Thanda: I have disabled startup sounds too... It just wont go away...
[04:20] <andyn> did the check Jack and it came back with the correct code...is that what you are asking?
[04:20] <thanda> giri: not yet...not restart the X-server
[04:20] <giri> Thanda: I just installed ubuntu 7.04 yesterday...
[04:20] <car_watt> How to recovering infromacion erased  the commando after the command rm -r
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Kinda... YOu verified the MD5 but from the start or install menu there is a self test
[04:21] <car_watt> :S
[04:21] <car_watt> jejeje
[04:21] <thanda> giri: After you disabled the sound...just login and logout...
[04:21] <tourain> i have installed swat (to configure samba).when i go to myserver:901 i just get a blank page
[04:21] <giri> Thanda: I didnot hear any sound yesterday...
[04:21] <andyn> Jack: yes that is what I did M5, was good...
[04:21] <thanda> giri: I know..it is because of startup sounds..it uses different dev
[04:21] <andyn> Jack:  did not do the self-test
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Was that on the file before burning or the burned cd when you were done.
[04:21] <andyn> Jack: the burned cd
[04:21] <thanda> giri: just logout and login
[04:22] <m_tadeu> hi everyone
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: The self test cant hurt.. I have also had luck burning at a much slower speed, especially when trying to install on my Dell's
[04:22] <m_tadeu> how do I set exec permissions on my compact flash card?
[04:22] <andyn> Jack:  also, have tried installation of 5.10 from a distrobution cd, that I have used to install on another machine and that still does not work
[04:23] <giri> Thanda: I have logged out and logged in.. But the sound did not go away...
[04:23] <andyn> jack:  this is on a gateway, P4, 1.7 Ghz, 256 MegRAM, 250 Gig HD
[04:23] <thanda> giri: Did you also disabled, Enable sound mixing(ESD)
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Livecd boots to the desktop correct.. just want to make sure I understand..
[04:24] <gimped> how do i setup to autohide the systray in gnome?
[04:24] <andyn> Jack:  have not tried to boot Livecd, just started the installation process as 'server'
[04:24] <m1r> gimped , right click on it and set hide automaticly
[04:24] <car_watt> How to recovering info after the command rm -r
[04:24] <scriptha> Im having problems with php, I install php5-mysql but it doesnt know mysql_connect()..
[04:25] <andyn> jack;  the HD is new has never had any operating system on it
[04:25] <gnuskool> Jack_Sparrow, it creates a 'virtual' desktop, running in RAM
[04:25] <gimped> that hides the whole panel
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Ok, that is why I asked...  I used alternate cd on problem computers...
[04:25] <gimped> i just want only the systray to collapse
[04:25] <andyn> Jack: what is alternate cd?
[04:25] <mrga> i installed apache, so how can i save web page in /var/www
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> gnuskool: The server has virtual desktop... I didnt know that...
[04:26] <WeeJeWel> mrga, make a link
[04:26] <mrga> what
[04:26] <MilitantPotato> tourain:  do you have 'netkit-inetd' installed?
[04:26] <WeeJeWel> eg link htdocs to www
[04:26] <drock> mrga, either use command line or become root nautilus
[04:26] <giri> Thanda: Sound now seems to have reduced... But still keep getting small static-like sounds whenever I type...
[04:26] <MilitantPotato> tourain: I had to install that for SWAT to work properly after following the guide at !swat
[04:26] <drock> link works too
[04:26] <MilitantPotato> !swat
[04:26] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:27] <Pici> mrga: or put a symlink in /var/www/ to the file in your home directory.
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> andyn: Alternatecd is on the download page below the others.. it has a checkbox...  Were you going for a server install or desktop,
[04:27] <drock> I set my virtual hosts to /home/username/www/
[04:27] <thanda> giri: type killall esd
[04:27] <gnuskool> Jack_sparrow, server, hhm, i may have ass-u-med, disregard that, old chap
[04:27] <mrga> i don't know that, can you give an url
[04:27] <thanda> giri: If it says no process...then it is fine...
[04:27] <drock> I really love Webmin for setting up Apache2
[04:28] <MilitantPotato> the alternate CD is the only way I've been able to install ubuntu on three PC's
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> MilitantPotato: i had some success with the Xubuntu Live CD on my Laptop, but my PC, and my laptop w/ all other versions of Ubuntu, require the alternate cd... so i just stick w/ it.
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> gnuskool: np... :)
[04:29] <andyn> Jack: thanks
[04:29] <gnuskool> MilitantPotato, its my fav, but then again, im reviving  pc with 333MHz or below
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Andyn It has worked where othere failed
[04:29] <univremonster> anybody know how to force architecture while installing from a .pl file?
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> gnurph: yeah, that makes a different
[04:29] <feenster> Hi all. Anyone using Ubuntu 7.04 on Dual Quad Core Xeon processors? Does anything special need to be done to make Ubuntu use all the available resources?
[04:30] <MilitantPotato> hmm
[04:30] <MilitantPotato> how do you login?
[04:30] <giri> Thanda: I have done that.. But it still does not fix the problem
[04:30] <MilitantPotato> Nevermind brb
[04:30] <drock> usr/bin/perl $arch = "-arch i386 -arch
[04:30] <tourain> MilitantPotato: thanks for your help, i am installing it right now
[04:31] <drock> usr/bin/perl $arch = "-arch i386 -arch ppc
[04:31] <drock> as an example
[04:31] <sSiroSoriSs> be what where with who?
[04:31] <jaime> hi
[04:31] <kazzmir> how do I get a webcam to work in ubuntu?
[04:31] <jaime> I have a problem with locales
[04:32] <scorp123> feenster: you could check via command line ... e.g. cat /proc/cpuinfo
[04:32] <scriptha> Im having problems with php on lighttpd, I installed php5-mysql but it doesnt know mysql_connect()..
[04:32] <sSiroSoriSs> i have a question reguarding virtual machines........ will windows detect my winsoft modem in a virtual machine while linux hosts the virtual machine? (linux doesn't support the winmodem)
[04:32] <kazzmir> when i run camorama it says it cant connect to /dev/video0
[04:32] <scorp123> feenster: and then check how many CPU's it gives you
[04:32] <scorp123> sSiroSoriSs: I don't think so
[04:32] <drock> kazzmir, run lsusb in terminal
[04:32] <thanda> giri: open alsamixer on console
[04:32] <feenster> scorp123 - I haven't bought the equipment yet. I'm trying to work out whether it will use Quad Core Xeon's or just stick to using dual cores
[04:33] <giri> Thanda: Yes I have...
[04:33] <scorp123> sSiroSoriSs: but most VM software such as VMware or VirtualBox are able to assign USB devices to a virtual OS .. so if you had an USB modem, that would work
[04:33] <thanda> giri: Can you mute the surround...
[04:33] <Dr_Link> I got Ubuntu to work with my Intel PROset Wireless card. O_o
[04:33] <faileas> erm
[04:33] <thanda> giri: you can press m on corresponding bar...
[04:33] <faileas> thats not hard ;) mine worked out of the box for years ;p
[04:33] <giri> Thanda: Surround is already muted..
[04:33] <drock> Dr_Link, good to know, There is a thinkpad I want that has Intel L PRo
[04:34] <scorp123> feenster: doesn't matter ... you could just recompile the kernel, no matter what the CPU is or how many you have.
[04:34] <giri> Thanda: It shows MM.. Then it means muted right?
[04:34] <Dr_Link> drock: I've had Ubuntu... and I had to use my Ethernet which cuts off half of my network...
[04:34] <faileas> drock, Dr_Link: they've worked for years, least my 2100 . also thinkpads are awesome for linux ;)
[04:34] <thanda> giri: yes
[04:34] <MilitantPotato> Hey all, is netkit-inetd or openbsd-inetd better?
[04:34] <scorp123> feenster: if you can boot Ubuntu on it (and with Intel CPU's you should be able to!) then getting the OS to work with all CPU's is the smallest of all problems.
[04:34] <thanda> giri: look for other bars....
[04:35] <thanda> giri: If it does not work...then I would like to look the output of lspci
[04:35] <drock> I had some reservation with IBM, but Dell has been easy for my needs: server and desktops
[04:35] <feenster> scorp123 - ah right, so in theory it should quite happily run on multiple cores (either 4 or 8). It will be running with 16GB RAM too. Should we be going for the 64bit version, or does that add its own problems into the mix?
[04:35] <thanda> giri: type lspci on console, and use pastebin...
[04:35] <_nixMan> what does ubuntu use to manage software?
[04:36] <scorp123> feenster: check the CPU in question. If it is a 64-bit CPU then you should use the 64-bit OS version
[04:36] <drock> synaptic
[04:36] <MilitantPotato> synaptic _nixMan
[04:36] <Dr_Link> faileas: true!
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> _nixMan: or apt-get
[04:36] <yenemy> random question... does anyone know if a recent Ubuntu package of gnucash exists? 2.0.2 is kind of old, and doesn't include the file format change :(
[04:36] <thanda> giri: I will be back after smoking break.
[04:36] <feenster> scorp123 - thanks very much. They are 64bit Xeons, just seem to remember reading that it can cause problems getting stuff to play along nicely :-)
[04:36] <_nixMan> what's better in ubuntu, synaptic or apt-get?
[04:36] <giri> Thanda: Here is the output of lspci http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33832/
[04:36] <faileas> Dr_Link: in part since they've been certified by another commercial distro for years ;)
[04:36] <giri> Thanda: Thats fine..
[04:36] <drock> Yenemy: youmay want to compile from source to get the new one.
[04:36] <faileas> _nixMan: their both front ends for the same thing ;)
[04:36] <scorp123> feenster: only if you intend to use it as 'desktop' ....
[04:37] <MilitantPotato> _nixMan:  Synaptic is a lot more user friendly
[04:37] <scorp123> feenster: e.g. there is no flash for 64-bit platforms yet
[04:37] <MilitantPotato> for me at least :)
[04:37] <giri> Thanda: If you dont mind, I will also break for dinner now..
[04:37] <yenemy> drock: yeah, i tried that... i got errors at the checkinstall stage :/
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> _nixMan: I prefer synaptic as well
[04:37] <feenster> scorp123 - nope, this will be a full on server, running Apache, PHP, and Informix. And doing very little else.
[04:37] <thanda> giri: The sound card is from Nvidia.... or...
[04:37] <muszek> hi... just bought a dell in US and will have a friend bring it to me to Europe... quick question: do US electrical sockets have 110V or 220/230V?
[04:37] <drock> Yenemy: use checkinstall to make it a DEB, you will, be glad you did
[04:37] <yenemy> supposedly something to do with 'gettext', but i have it installed... guess i'll sign up to the gnucash mailing lists
[04:37] <scorp123> feenster: then 64-bit OS version should be OK
[04:37] <thanda> giri: yeah its dinner time in India...I think
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> muszek: 110 ac
[04:37] <yenemy> drock: yeah, that's where i get errors
[04:37] <feenster> scorp123 - thanks for your help
[04:37] <scorp123> feenster: it's mostly 32-bit desktop stuff that makes troubles
[04:37] <drock> Yenemy: oh, my bad
[04:37] <yenemy> hehe
[04:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry
[04:38] <muszek> Jack_Sparrow: thanks... do you know what's the most convenient way to convert it 230V to 110V?
[04:38] <scorp123> muszek: 110 => USA
[04:38] <scorp123> muszek: 220 => Europe
[04:38] <feenster> scorp123 - great, definately not being used for Desktop. Thanks again
[04:38] <giri> Thanda: My motherboard manual says it is Sound MAX (from Analog devices)
[04:38] <drock> Yenemy: anything in the debian repos?
[04:38] <radioman> 110 so strange ;/
[04:38] <nojoints> Hello, how do I get so I have the screen splitted up when I use dualview? all games get in the center, I want it to be on just 1 screen. Same with the background pictures, they get centered between the screen and not on one or the other
[04:38] <scorp123> muszek: and most laptops should be able to handle both
[04:38] <Jack_Sparrow> muszek: It may even have a switch to convert for you...
[04:38] <scorp123> muszek: e.g. all you need is a so called travel adapter
[04:39] <gcostello> giri: did you try to mute the microphone from alsamixer?
[04:39] <yenemy> drock: hmm, haven't checked... not sure how to, either ;) i'll try to do that after work tonight
[04:39] <thanda> giri: but lspci output says....00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
[04:39] <muszek> scorp123, Jack_Sparrow: thanks and have a nice day
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:39] <jorunn> someone knows about troubles with updates on feisty, internet connection gets lost after starting to update, wireless connections remains, but no internet anymore
[04:39] <drock> Yenemy: you can go to debian site and search.
[04:39] <_nixMan> does synaptic feature a ncurses gui for those of us without an x-window syste,?
[04:40] <giri> Thanda: Now I am facing a new problem: I was playing a music on rhythmbox.. I attempted to change volume in alsamixer when everything when mute.. :(
[04:40] <yenemy> heh, oh... i guess that makes sense
[04:40] <drock> Yenemy:  I've downloaded some debs there.
[04:40] <scorp123> _nixMan: aptitude
[04:40] <jorunn> someone knows about troubles with updates on feisty, internet connection gets lost after starting to update, wireless connections remains, but no internet anymore
[04:40] <scorp123> _nixMan: you want 'aptitude' then
[04:40] <giri> Thanda: Yeah! Do you thjnk I have installed the wrong driver?
[04:40] <eifzon> Where shall I mount my drive that I got multimedia on? Like movies,music..
[04:40] <thanda> giri: You don't install anything wrong...
[04:40] <Jack_Sparrow> yenemy: Not a good idea to go into the debian repos....
[04:41] <gordonjcp> eifzon: I use /media/music, /media/video etc

[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> get
[04:41] <gordonjcp> eifzon: on one machine yes, it's another disk, on the rest of the machines it's an NFS mount
[04:41] <scorp123> yenemy: they use different lib versions and different version numbers. Hence you are begging for conflicts if you mix repos ....
[04:41] <giri> Thanda: How? I am not able to hear anything now... :(
[04:41] <jorunn> try it with sdo?
[04:41] <Lin> hi there. what is wrong with this /etc/apt/preferences ( http://paste.debian.net/34695 ) ? I want to pin greater priority to this repository: deb http://192.168.4.1/local/ ./    but apt-cache polity keep telling me that all my repositories has priority 500, any tips? man apt_preferences do not tell me about the syntax.
[04:41] <yenemy> Jack_Sparrow: gnucash 2.2.0, right now i'm getting errors when doing a checkinstall
[04:42] <yenemy> scorp123: ahh
[04:42] <eifzon> gordonjcp, you sure I have to do like that?
[04:42] <thanda> giri: you might have muted everything on alsamixer
[04:42] <jorunn> try it to mount it with sudo ?
[04:42] <yenemy> okay, then... the mailing lists it is
[04:42] <thanda> giri: even pcm
[04:42] <ConstyXIV> does this http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/08/15/1341224 have anything to do with the APT repos?

[04:43] <jorunn> someone knows about troubles with updates on feisty, internet connection gets lost after starting to update, wireless connections remains, but no internet anymore
[04:43] <yenemy> Jack_Sparrow: i'd have to go back to my logs to figure it out.... don't have that system with me at the mo; i'll be back after work to pester you all some more, i'm sure
[04:43] <scorp123> jorunn: nope
[04:43] <yenemy> oh wait, i remember someone else on the ubuntu forums had the same problem... hold on
[04:43] <giri> Thanda: No No.. PCM, Headphones, Front are all unmuted...
[04:43] <thanda> giri: check for volume control on the panel...
[04:44] <jorunn> it is really getting me pissed, cus i can't update or install anyting trouth synaptic ...
[04:44] <Jack_Sparrow> yenemy: JUst some advice... dont go to the debian repos.. that is asking for trouble.. compile if you must...
[04:44] <thanda> giri: please un-mute everything on alsamixer...just to test....
[04:44] <jorunn> searched the hell out of forums everywhere, but nog solution or even someone else with te same prob

[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> yenemy: I wonder what version of gnucash will be in gutsy.... have you asked?
[04:49] <jorunn> got a belking wirless router and a motorola broadbandrouter
[04:49] <_nixMan> SlimeyPe1e: is it really or are you just messing around?
[04:49] <yenemy> Jack_Sparrow: people were saying that we won't see gnucash 2.2.0 in ubuntu until gutsy+1
[04:49] <SlimeyPe1e> _nixMan: it is really. You use the livecd to install the system to your hard disk - it's the main way of installing Ubuntu.
[04:49] <yenemy> meanwhile, gnucash is due for an update to 2.2.1 this weekend
[04:49] <yenemy> i guess i could run their windows version in Wine, hehe
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> yenemy: Gutsy will be out quite soon.....
[04:50] <neverblue> :)
[04:50] <univremonster> is there any way to convert a .pl to a .deb?
[04:50] <neverblue> univremonster, not really
[04:50] <bruenig> gutsy won't be out for two months
[04:50] <bruenig> univremonster, a .pl is a perl script
[04:50] <yenemy> Jack_Sparrow: well, I'd like to try figuring this out anyway... i'm a newcomer to linux, and it's just as well for me to try and learn this stuff whenever i get the opportunity
[04:50] <_nixMan> ok, by live cd i mean a version of ubuntu that will run from cd to test and make sure the os works and seems compatible enough for my system?
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> bruenig: Two months isnt a long time...
[04:51] <neverblue> univremonster, a .deb is a package, where as a .pl is a perl script, which bruenig stated
[04:51] <yenemy> _nixMan: the regular ubuntu desktop CD does that
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> bruenig: Time is relative...
[04:51] <univremonster> neverblue, breunig; I am trying to install a 32-bit .pl on a 64-bit platform.  Is it possible?
[04:51] <yenemy> Jack_Sparrow: i'm an impatient person ;)
[04:51] <KaiserDaTA> hi
[04:51] <bayue> my compiz-fusion does not work
[04:51] <_nixMan> ok good enough thanks
[04:51] <bruenig> Jack_Sparrow, well then it needs to be done relative to release cycle, still 1/3 of the release cycle
[04:51] <faileas> perl has architecture?
[04:51] <neverblue> univremonster, its just a script, it matters what the script itself is running, probably
[04:51] <univremonster> vmware
[04:51] <KaiserDaTA> I use amule, and kad is always disconnecting :S someone know the reason?
[04:51] <neverblue> a .pl to run VMware?
[04:52] <univremonster> to install it
[04:52] <jorunn> Scorp123:  got a belking wirless router and a motorola broadbandrouter
[04:52] <neverblue> should be fine
[04:52] <bruenig> hmm, this is weird, I cap my upload speed to 10 kb/s and the dl speed takes off
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> bruenig: The schedule is posted... He isnt in a rush...
[04:52] <neverblue> univremonster, you could always just look at the script
[04:52] <neverblue> no harm in that
[04:52] <bruenig> univremonster, just run the script
[04:52] <univremonster> neverblue; I get this error: This version of "VMware Player" is incompatible with this operating system.
[04:52] <univremonster> Please install the "x86_64" version of this program instead.
[04:52] <univremonster> Execution aborted.
[04:53] <neverblue> univremonster, thats self explainatory :)
[04:53] <bruenig> univremonster, then go get the 64 bit version like it says
[04:53] <univremonster> neverblue; I tried to run the 64-bit version first.  It couldn't find my virtual machine
[04:53] <neverblue> univremonster, so you already have a VM machine?
[04:54] <univremonster> neverblue; yes, I downloaded it from http://www.easyvmx.com/
[04:54] <neverblue> univremonster, is it 64, is VMware 64, is your current machine 64?
[04:54] <Pingviller> I feel like a complete twit right now.. how am I supposed to install XDocLet ? only found a bunch of tar'ed .jar-files, and I got no clue what to do with em lol
[04:54] <neverblue> Pingviller, no README?
[04:54] <univremonster> neverblue, my machine is 64-bit, I don't know what the VM is, which is why I speculated running it as 32 could solve the problem
[04:55] <bruenig> Pingviller, eww java, you run then with java -jar whatever.jar
[04:55] <neverblue> and the VMed machine?
[04:55] <TheimonAfk> univremonster, build a new vm with 64bits extensions
[04:55] <Vilkus> hello, Im wanting to be able to read and do a copy of the documents I have in a ntfs partition but it doesnt let me read the partition and I dont understand the tutorials that Ive found on the web. Could somebody please help me?
[04:55] <MasterShrek> !ntfs-3g | Vilkus
[04:55] <ubotu> Vilkus: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:55] <TheimonAfk> same features just a slightly different OS
[04:55] <univremonster> TheimonAfk; not sure I have that option
[04:55] <TheimonAfk> yes its in the dropdpwn @ easyvmx
[04:55] <bruenig> Vilkus, you should be able to read without ntfs-3g
[04:55] <Pingviller> I guess I'm just a twit and don't like XDocLet any more :D I don't wanna run em with Java..
[04:55] <TheimonAfk> im looking at it right now
[04:56] <Vilkus> well it doesnt let me
[04:56] <Vilkus> it tells me, imposible to mount the partition
[04:56] <yenemy> my fresh install of feisty apparently lets me read/write to my ntfs partition
[04:56] <TheimonAfk> univremonster, "select Guest OS"
[04:56] <univremonster> TheimonAfk; oh yea, right in front of my nose
[04:56] <TheimonAfk> :)
[04:56] <thefloydfan> Vilkus: More specific?
[04:56] <bruenig> !info ntfs-3g
[04:56] <ubotu> ntfs-3g: read-write NTFS driver for FUSE. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.328-1 (feisty), package size 25 kB, installed size 88 kB
[04:56] <jrattner1> Question: How can I make it so that everytime a certain user logins in, an e-mail is sent to me?
[04:56] <Myrtti> *burp*
[04:57] <TheimonAfk> univremonster, then you dont need to reinstall vmware itself
[04:57] <bruenig> yenemy, ntfs-3g isn't installed by default and I don't think the experimental kernel write support for ntfs is enabled so that is weird
[04:57] <TheimonAfk> just point the current one to the new vm
[04:57] <N3bunel> brb restart
[04:57] <yoruichi> hye
[04:57] <pirula> hello
[04:57] <univremonster> TheimonAfk; if only I hadn't uninstalled it :-)  Ah well it should be quick to reinstall
[04:57] <TheimonAfk> yah
[04:57] <TheimonAfk> thats easy
[04:57] <yoruichi> lalala
[04:57] <TheimonAfk> :)
[04:57] <yenemy> bruenig: whoa... weird. well, now that i think of it i haven't tried writing, but i know i can surf around in my ntfs partition and look at stuff
[04:58] <bruenig> yenemy, yeah you can read no problem
[04:58] <yenemy> oh, so it's just writing
[04:58] <yenemy> nm then, heheh
[04:58] <bruenig> yenemy, right
[04:58] <Vilkus> This is what appears when I try to access de partition
[04:58] <Vilkus> error: device /dev/hda1 is not removable

[05:00] <yoruichi> hahaha
[05:00] <yoruichi> ok ok~~~
[05:00] <yenemy> so, i can do an apt-get install on ntfs-3g and it should let me write to my ntfs partitions?
[05:01] <TomPurnell_> Hi, I'm running Feisty and I don't seem to have a link to my home dir on my desktop. I'd like one. Is there a decent way of doing this? If i use ln it doesnt use the nice home folder icon, and if I drag home from my places menu to the desktop, i cant drag and drop files onto it correctly
[05:01] <neverblue> yenemy, no hurt in giving it a try, right?
[05:01] <bruenig> yenemy, you are supposed to have to do some extra configuration to /etc/fstab, changing ntfs to ntfs-3g and whatnot, but that might be covered in some post-install script knowing ubuntu
[05:01] <neverblue> TomPurnell, you can add an icon if you like
[05:01] <kanedaddy> Hi
[05:01] <yenemy> well, i dunno; this is my linux debut, really
[05:02] <BankHead> hello
[05:02] <nonn> hallo
[05:02] <neverblue> yenemy, is it a local NTFS drive
[05:02] <TomPurnell> neverblue you mean manually set the icon of the link?
[05:02] <yenemy> bruenig: righto... well, if i have to reinstall, no big
[05:02] <yenemy> neverblue: yeah... same drive actually, different partition
[05:02] <TomPurnell> neverblue but then it has the shortcut emblem on it
[05:02] <neverblue> TomPurnell, correct
[05:02] <bruenig> yenemy, you won't have to reinstall it is pretty easy, just edit /etc/fstab and everywhere you see ntfs, replace with ntfs-3g
[05:02] <yenemy> oooh, ok
[05:02] <neverblue> TomPurnell, you can run an application, rather than create a shortcut
[05:02] <yoruichi> one more help pls...
[05:03] <yenemy> sweet, i can do that
[05:03] <TomPurnell> neverblue: and then drag and drop doesn't work correctly

[05:08] <genii> ti4mi: Yes i have such an adapter which operates fine with ubuntu, a belkin model
[05:08] <yenemy> man, chanserv hates elkbuntu
[05:08] <yoruichi> pls...help me
[05:08] <ewook> ti4mi: you get a adaptor, and a ps/2 keyb and plug it in?
[05:08] <ti4mi> the devices dind't get registrated.

[05:08] <ubotu> yoruichi: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:08] <gcostello> !upgrade > yoruichi
[05:08] <ewook> ti4mi: try another port
[05:09] <bruenig> thanda, yeah I am not sure if they actually cut the repos off or just stop security updates and whatnot, I imagine at some point the repos themselves have to be cut off else they will simply run out of space, 18,000+ new packages for every 6 months
[05:09] <ti4mi> I plugged it in and nothing happened
[05:09] <yoruichi> thx evrybody bye...
[05:09] <ti4mi> only the internal keyboard...

[05:10] <Some_Person> How do I change the default IRC client?
[05:10] <IdleOne> Some_Person: change it from what to what?
[05:10] <Some_Person> IdleOne: from xchat-gnome to xchat
[05:10] <IdleOne> Some_Person: sudo apt-get xchat-common should get you the "old" not so sucky xchat
[05:11] <chuckp> I have a new dell d630 on live cd install I get can't access tty; job control turned off. I want to dual boot with XP pro
[05:11] <Some_Person> IdleOne: I have it
[05:11] <Some_Person> IdleOne: but I want to make it the default client
[05:11] <Some_Person> IdleOne: When I click an irc:// link in Firefox, it tries to open it in xchat-gnome
[05:11] <yenemy> wouldn't that be a firefox setting?
[05:12] <netdiggerxxx> How do I change my splashscreen??
[05:12] <IdleOne> Some_Person: sudo apt-get remove xchat-gnome
[05:12] <Pici> !usplash | netdiggerxxx

[05:15] <Lappy> the brightness of my sony vaio is killing me... and there's no way for me to reduce it.. i've tried so many things.. none seemed to work... anyone has any ideas? (SONY VAIO VGN-FE38GP)
[05:15] <thanda> Lappy: did you tried xgamme
[05:15] <thanda>  Lappy: did you tried xgamma
[05:15] <Lappy> thanda, no I did not.. noone mentioned it in any forums.. i'll try it
[05:16] <Lappy> !xgamma
[05:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xgamma - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[05:16] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[05:16] <thanda>  Lappy: xgamma -gamma 0.4
[05:16] <boris_> ubuntu feisty doesnt detect blank dvd, what do i do now ?
[05:17] <thanda> Lappy: Does it work now....
[05:17] <Lappy> thanda,  yeah but still brightness too high.
[05:17] <thanda>  Lappy: xgamma -gamma 0.1
[05:17] <Lappy> plus the words look crappy as if it was 16 bits
[05:17] <thanda> Lappy: reduce the value....
[05:17] <gcostello> Lappy: have you looked in the BIOS?
[05:17] <Lappy> thanda, I did, I dont want this, I need something to do with brightness.
[05:17] <thanda> Lappy: what graphic card is that?
[05:18] <Lappy> gcostello, no I was trying to fix the fn keys so i can do that.
[05:18] <Lappy> thanda, geforce 7600 go
[05:18] <duryodhan22> hey Ubuntu destroyed my partition table :( ... without telling me ...
[05:18] <duryodhan22> Is there any way to get back what I lost ?
[05:18] <thanda> Lappy: Do you have nvidia settings...
[05:18] <Lappy> thanda, I installed some... not sure if that's everything though...
[05:19] <Lappy> thanda, nvidia-gls
[05:19] <chuckp> can't access tty; job control turned off on live cd install
[05:19] <Lappy> thanda, nvidia-glx
[05:19] <ZAKhan_> can someone tell me ho i run mirc with wine?
[05:19] <thanda> Lappy: If you have installed the drivers manually..then you will get the settings manager..
[05:19] <Lappy> thanda, when i installed ubuntu it updated a lot of stuff, and it dled the nvidia thing.. I didn't apt-get them or anything.
[05:20] <Radish> hi, im using ubuntu, been very successful so far, but no sound
[05:20] <TomPurnell> duryodhan22: http://www.salingfamily.net/trav/linux/lost_partition.html
[05:20] <Radish> I went to the sound thing in system and changed the devices and when I click test I hear a beep
[05:20] <Scunizi> ZAKhan_: have you tried Xchat?  or irssi two of the more preferred on linux
[05:20] <skino> hi there im wondering if some1 can help me. i need to get Open GL running on my system. now i can get GLXgears to run and i get 3888 frames in 5.0 seconds = 771.538 FPS
[05:20] <Radish> but when I go to the system sounds and click test, I hear nothing
[05:20] <thanda> Lappy: Difficult to instruct now...if you have nvidia settings...then..you can control these display parameters...
[05:20] <Lappy> thanda, I went to nvidia-settings now, and was able to do it.
[05:20] <Lappy> thanda, thx...
[05:21] <Lappy> thanda, do you by any chance know how to make the fn keys work?
[05:21] <thanda> Lappy: Got the nice display now...or still you have any issues
[05:21] <thanda> Lappy: I never tried...but there is a topic about that in the forum.
[05:21] <Some_Person> So how do I make firefox use XChat for irc:// links?
[05:21] <ZAKhan_> Scunizi, i am using xchat for now .. i just want to know how to install application under wine
[05:22] <duryodhan22> I am sorry but the ubuntu site doesn't  work without https which my http-proxy doesn't allow
[05:22] <skino> hi there im wondering if some1 can help me. i need to get Open GL running on my system. now i can get GLXgears to run and i get 3888 frames in 5.0 seconds = 771.538 FPS. in restricted drivers there is a nvidia accelerated graphics driver wich is disabled.... every time i enable it and restart all i get is a black screen
[05:22] <Lappy> thanda, i've looked a lot and did many of the stuff asked, none of them worked.. as for brightness yeah it worked thx
[05:22] <neverblue> Some_Person, there is an addon
[05:22] <Scunizi> ZAKhan_: to install an .exe under wine you usually type "wine /location/program.exe"
[05:22] <Some_Person> Also, I'd like to know why the heck it is trying to use xchat-gnome, which isn't installed.
[05:22] <neverblue> skino, define black screen?
[05:22] <TomPurnell> skino: which nvidia card do you have
[05:23] <thanda> skino: what graphic card do you have? and...what arch does your pc belong to...
[05:23] <ZAKhan_> Scunizi, do i just copy the directory in my home folder and type that?
[05:23] <zpertee> is it possible to limit the commands available to remote ssh logins.  for example I don't want someone to be able to log in to my server and shut it down?
[05:23] <skino> i have a 7900GS graphics carn in my Dell XPS 1710. but i connect to an external 24" monitor wich i have got working with the top resolution i want
[05:23] <frojnd> how can I copy files between two linux machines with ssh ?
[05:23] <skino> as for the black screen thats all it is. i restart i hear all the sounds but nothing to see
[05:24] <SlimeyPe1e> frojnd: use scp or sftp
[05:24] <neverblue> Some_Person, its set as your default irc client, if you removed xchat-gnome, then you have to adjust the settings to make xchat the default irc client
[05:24] <thanda> skino: your frames per second is too low...I guess...
[05:24] <eifzon> frojnd, sudo scp file yourcomputer@yourip:/home/user/
[05:24] <TomPurnell> thanda: you mean refresh rate?
[05:24] <neverblue> skino, so your running duals
[05:24] <Some_Person> neverblue: And how do I do that? I removed xchat-gnome because I never used it.
[05:24] <skino> well im running my dell 24" monitor at 1920x1200 fine
[05:24] <thanda> TomPurnell: No the frames per second from glxgears
[05:24] <skino> its just when i enable this Nvidia accelerated graphics driver
[05:25] <russ_> hello world :)
[05:25] <thanda> skino: Yes...don't try restricted driver manager...
[05:25] <skino> this issue came about when i tried to install Cedega.... it says i dont have a working OpenGL
[05:25] <skino> what shud i try then?
[05:25] <skino> i need Open GL
[05:25] <thanda> skino: If you have installed nvidia drivers by hand..then you don't have this problem...
[05:26] <skino> im pretty new too Linux and i havnt installed them by hand
[05:26] <Some_Person> skino: do you have nvidia driver installed?
[05:26] <TomPurnell> skino: I agree with thanda, install the drivers manually
[05:26] <skino> can u get them from the Nvidia site?
[05:26] <skino> i assumed they were allready installed
[05:26] <thanda> skino: Try installing nvidia drivers manually...please fetch it from www.nvidia.com
[05:26] <lonran> hi everybody
[05:26] <Some_Person> neverblue: How do I change the default IRC client?
[05:26] <neverblue> Some_Person, you would do that inside FF, right?
[05:26] <russ_> hello lonran
[05:26] <TomPurnell> skino: yes, grab them online. just make sure you remove the one from the repo first
[05:27] <neverblue> Some_Person, you are trying to open this in FF, correct?
[05:27] <Some_Person> neverblue: I don't know, but I doubt it. I would never tell FF to use xchat-gnome.
[05:27] <thanda> skino: Is that x86 or x86_64
[05:27] <TomPurnell> skino: otherwise you might find it loads the wrong one. i had that problem with my 8500
[05:27] <neverblue> Some_Person, you dont have to, if its setup by default :/
[05:27] <skino> x86
[05:27] <thanda> skino: They are not....
[05:27] <russ_> I just install MozillaChat and it just works
[05:27] <skino> repo?
[05:27] <thanda> skino: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.11/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[05:28] <lonran> is there any way to use vlc for streaming videos and stop it till it is loaded? like in youtube or similiar. I cant manage to follow the loading progress.
[05:28] <thanda> skino: You must read the instructions before you install...
[05:28] <Some_Person> neverblue: I installed xchat-gnome myself, but then decided I preferred xchat. So I removed xchat-gnome.
[05:28] <skino> is that going to be ok for my laptop graphics card?
[05:28] <thanda> skino: There are few things you must do to get it working...
[05:28] <neverblue> Some_Person, you are basically just wanting to open irc in FF, which was your initial question, correct?
[05:28] <Some_Person> neverblue: Shouldn't the setting be iin ubuntu instead of FF?
[05:28] <thanda> skino: You will find the rest in the forums...
[05:28] <russ_> Question:  I want to install a Python library, I know how to do this in Windows, where do I put it in Ubuntu?
[05:28] <neverblue> Some_Person, ubuntu doesnt open applications for you, you do that yourself
[05:28] <Some_Person> neverblue: No, I want irc:// links to use xchat instead of xchat-gnome.
[05:29] <neverblue> Some_Person, where are you visiting irc:// links at?
[05:29] <Some_Person> neverblue: They are all over the web
[05:29] <neverblue> Some_Person, in which applications
[05:29] <Some_Person> neverblue: Firefox
[05:29] <skino> man i love linux so far but its such a pain to do some basic stuff if u havnt used linux before
[05:29] <neverblue> Some_Person, then you need to set it in FF
[05:29] <Some_Person> neverblue: From my experience in Windows, the setting is in the OS, not the browser.
[05:29] <neverblue> Some_Person, please try and listen, we have gone full circle with this

[05:29] <TomPurnell> Some_Person: load up gconf-editor and search for irc
[05:29] <thanda> skino: because these drivers are kind of binary blobs...ubuntu has no rights to distribute that...
[05:30] <chuckp004> Failed to start X server on new laptop ubuntu install
[05:30] <TomPurnell> Some_Person: you probably want /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/irc
[05:30] <thanda> skino: there is package called envy...to automate this process...
[05:30] <neverblue> oh please dont use envy
[05:30] <skino> wasnt that a distrobution of ubuntu?
[05:30] <SlimeyPe1e> !envy
[05:30] <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!

[05:31] <summer_s4> why is it that ubuntu's server is ALWAYS so slow?
[05:31] <neverblue> chuckp, whats your hardware, video ?
[05:31] <TomPurnell> summer_s4: choose a mirror
[05:31] <drock> ubotu: Envy and Automatix are dangerous
[05:32] <summer_s4> tompurnell: it is the one that you download the packages for ubuntu for it.
[05:32] <thanda> skino: after installing envy just run the envy as $envy -g
[05:32] <summer_s4> tompurnell: ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[05:32] <eracc> drock, ubotu is a bot ...
[05:32] <drock> doh!

[05:33] <duryodhan22> hey,
[05:33] <summer_s4> tompurnell: i am using the add/remove application thing
[05:33] <duryodhan22> ubuntu destroyed my partition tables ... do you know of a way I can recover them?
[05:33] <chuckp004> lol, no its not
[05:33] <chuckp004> \
[05:33] <neverblue> chuckp004, a bit more detail please, use: lspci | grep intel
[05:33] <duryodhan22> I am pretty sure it hasn't destroyed my data ...
[05:33] <TomPurnell> summer_s4: close that and open up system/administration/synaptic package manager
[05:33] <summer_s4> how do i change what site add/remove applications gets teh app's
[05:34] <neverblue> chuckp004, are you able to view your xorg.conf?
[05:34] <summer_s4> tompurnell: it gets them from the same place
[05:34] <drock> Can anyone explain Gnome themes. Why some apps are themed, but others like Synaptic look unthemed?
[05:34] <faileas> duryodhan22: testdisk. and BTW interesting nick ;p
[05:34] <kitby> is there a GUI for configuring various power management  / ACPI settings (for example, the max cpu frequency, the governor to use)?
[05:34] <Lappy> thanda, just found 'smartdimmer' also does the job it seems :)
[05:34] <TomPurnell> summer_s4: once you're in synaptic you can change the source server
[05:34] <Pici> drock: because when you run things like synaptic, you are effectively using the root account, which has no theme preferences.
[05:34] <TomPurnell> summer_s4: settings / repositories / 'Download From'
[05:34] <chuckp028> hey
[05:34] <eracc> duryodhan22, since you did backup before you messed with changing your partition tables just restore your backed up partition tables. :>
[05:34] <chuckp028> sorry about that
[05:35] <summer_s4> aarg if only i didn't tell add/remove applications thing to download and install 75 app's

[05:52] <kapau> hi guys
[05:52] <TheimonAfk> hi
[05:52] <kapau> need some help ....i just installed ubuntu on my old computer...but it hangs on the loading screen :(
[05:52] <srn> i just made a fresh install of 7.04 .. i've installed nvidia-glx and defined nvidia as the the driver to be used for the current device.. however, and mind you that this is on a completely fresh install, it says that there is an api mismatch and the nvidia kernel module is the wrong version. how do i fix it?
[05:52] <TheimonAfk> kapau, after grub?
[05:53] <Cybe> Hey everybody :D does anyone know how I can log all ping requests? I have a router so maybe it needs to be configured first?
[05:53] <srn> (xorg crashes with that errormsg)
[05:53] <kapau> theimon: yes after grub (but it automatically loads something unless i press esc)
[05:53] <TheimonAfk> yes kapau
[05:53] <TheimonAfk> when you get that loading screen, press ctrl+alt+f1
[05:54] <TheimonAfk> then you get the "behind the scenes" look of things
[05:54] <TheimonAfk> maybe then you can see where the error occurs
[05:54] <kapau> theimon: okay i'll try that and reboot :)
[05:54] <TheimonAfk> srn, which nvidia version did you install
[05:54] <TheimonAfk> ?
[05:54] <TheimonAfk> which driver version that is
[05:55] <srn> hm, the one in the default reposatory
[05:55] <TheimonAfk> have you had another version installed prior to this one?
[05:55] <srn> no
[05:55] <srn> this is completely fresh install, because i tried on a upgraded one and had the same problem
[05:55] <faileas> hmm
[05:55] <summer_s4> what is the little thing i type into the terminal to get the exe compatibility?
[05:56] <faileas> is there a text mode irc client?
[05:56] <srn> faileas, yes, irssi
[05:56] <IdleOne> !irssi
[05:56] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface !IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help
[05:56] <srn> summer_s4, sudo apt-get install wine
[05:56] <srn> ?
[05:56] <summer_s4> srn: thanks
[05:56] <onats> hi, what's the command to restart the mouse and keyboard services?
[05:56] <srn> onats, ctrl+alt+backspace
[05:56] <srn> ?
[05:57] <onats> are you sure?
[05:57] <TheimonAfk> hmm if you wouldve had a previous install I would have known the answer
[05:57] <srn> well it restarts x
[05:57] <IdleOne> onats: that will restart X
[05:57] <onats> that's the shortcut for logoff
[05:57] <TheimonAfk> but on a fresh one...
[05:57] <onats> what about the /etc/***/ restart?
[05:57] <Pici> onats: A safer way would be to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:57] <onats> is there something like that?
[05:57] <Pici> onats:
[05:57] <onats> there.. that's what i was looking for.. thanks pici!
[05:57] <srn> TheimonAfk, it says that the kernel module is version 1.0-9631 and the x module is 1.0-9755 .. if its any help
[05:57] <Pici> onats: Er, but that will restart X as well
[05:57] <kapau> theimon: i did what you asked me and it's still loading but i noticed this message "ACPI: Bios age(1999) failes cutoff(2000) , acpi=force required to enable acpi"
[05:57] <onats> errr
[05:58] <onats> just the mouse...
[05:58] <onats> after a while my mouse stops working...
[05:58] <IdleOne> /etc//init.d/mouse restart maybe
[05:58] <onats> i dont know how to resolve the problem..
[05:58] <IdleOne> /etc/init.d/mouse restart maybe
[05:58] <onats> there's no mouse....
[05:58] <TheimonAfk> kapau, the system is still booting?
[05:58] <summer_s4> how do i install virtualbox?
[05:58] <srn> there is no spoon :P
[05:58] <IdleOne> !virtualbox
[05:58] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[05:59] <Pici> onats: The mouse and keyboard are defined through xorg, if it dies when in a tty session, you might have a hardware issue
[05:59] <kapau> theimon: it appears to be stuck on loading hardware drivers
[05:59] <faileas> !build-essentials>faileas
[05:59] <onats> Pici, hmmm, how should i go about trying to solve it?
[05:59] <kapau> theimon: but when i transfer this hard disk to the newer pc it works perfectly...so i guess ubuntu doesn't work on older computers?
[05:59] <TheimonAfk> kapau, can you pinpoint which one?
[05:59] <onats> i still don't want to give up my wireless mouse+keyboard combo...
[05:59] <xfiles_ken> 123
[05:59] <TheimonAfk> well
[05:59] <TheimonAfk> it should
[05:59] <Lappy> after typing ./configure, i got this error: checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[05:59] <TheimonAfk> ubuntu doesnt have that high sysreqs
[06:00] <Pici> Lappy: install the build-essential package
[06:00] <IdleOne> Lappy: sudo apt-get install build-essential after that is installed run ./configure again
[06:00] <kapau> theimon: here's the last three lines... Starting basic networking.. OK starting kernel event manager... [ok]  ... Loading Hardware drivers... *blinking line*
[06:00] <Lappy> alright Pici  IdleOne
[06:00] <SlimeyPe1e> kapau: ubuntu should work OK on anything better than a P200 with 128MB RAM
[06:00] <Pici> onats: I'm thinking
[06:00] <SlimeyPe1e> hardware support notwithstanding
[06:00] <xfiles_ken> u
[06:00] <Lappy> thought i had these :|
[06:00] <kapau> slimey: thanks my system is a p3 450...hope it works here :)
[06:01] <Pici> onats: If you can ssh in after the keyboard/mouse die you could check out dmesg for any wierd errors.
[06:01] <kapau> theimon: no specifics... it's just loading hardware drivers... and then the blinking line after no [ok]  sign
[06:01] <j85wilson> mad-sibyl: prophesy
[06:01] <mad-sibyl> killerpiggy: whats your going to work.
[06:01] <IdleOne> kapau: should work pretty good. you might want to install a window manager like xfce to run a little faster though
[06:02] <trtr3434> hello
[06:02] <duryodhan22> hey where in the ubuntu live CD can I find the test disk program ?
[06:02] <kapau> idle: thanks for the tip man :) i just can't get ubuntu to boot on this older pc ... :) it works perfectly on the new one
[06:02] <trtr3434> first time i install ubuntu i can hear sound but after i update, i can't here anything
[06:02] <onats> pici, what's the series of commands?
[06:03] <hyphenated> duryodhan22: it should be a choice from the first startup screen just after turning on the computer
[06:03] <Pici> onats: You'd need to have openssh-server installed on your computer and another computer you can use an ssh client from.  Then you could just type `dmesg` and read it
[06:04] <onats> i have a terminal open... and typed dmesg

[06:07] <matjan> hi, the other day i switched the mode of my modem from bridged to routing... i had lots of trouble with my internet connection so i tried that... it seems that browsing is much better now, but at times gaim or xchat lose their connection, and azureus is fairly slow... i lost connection just now... whenever such a disconnect occurs, also torrent transfers drop to zero (in and out)... not sure yet how streams behave...
[06:07] <GNine> ubuntu 7.04 is having hiccups at frequent interval where the system halts for a few seconds (freeze) and then resume for no apparent reason. any input on this?
[06:07] <] WM[KnaveWave> wow... is this new? I had checked into it a few years ago
[06:07] <matjan> does anyone have experience with port forwarding?
[06:08] <aluno> carlos
[06:08] <Scunizi> matjan, maybe I can help.. what's up
[06:08] <gordonjcp> GNine: something periodically hammering CPU or disk?
[06:10] <GNine> it does it even when idle or running a screen saver
[06:10] <IrishDave> hey, does anyone know of a way to define the fonts used by qt apps when using ubuntu, i mean for applications such as kate when run under gnome?
[06:11] <Scunizi> matjan: just read your previous post.  Is your "modem" a adsl modem?
[06:11] <matjan> Scunizi, as i said...i've had lots of trouble with my internet connection lately and tried to switch from bridged to routing mode on my modem
[06:11] <matjan> Scunizi, yes
[06:11] <Pici> IrishDave: I think you'd need to install kcontrol and config stuff from there.  It might bring in the rest of KDE as dependencies though.
[06:11] <madman91> why do i have 3 users logged in
[06:11] <Scunizi> matjan: and it has several ports for additional computers on the back?
[06:11] <matjan> Scunizi, no
[06:11] <IrishDave> Pici: that's what I though and why I was hoping there might be a qt control panel or something
[06:11] <Dr_Link> Is there any screen-activity-recording software available for Ubuntu Linux?
[06:11] <IdleOne> matjan: names?
[06:12] <IrishDave> might install kde anyway cos ill want to play with kde4 once released
[06:12] <IdleOne> ooopps I meant madman91 names of users?
[06:12] <matjan> Scunizi, IdleOne, a gnet modem
[06:12] <koan> gnome is making my system slow
[06:12] <koan> can i install xfce on my ubuntu
[06:12] <_mitch_> thats like, impossible
[06:12] <Scunizi> matjan: k looking it up..
[06:12] <matjan> Scunizi, IdleOne, bb0060 to be precise
[06:12] <madman91> greg :0  greg pts/0  greg pts/1
[06:12] <_mitch_> at least u dont have KDE
[06:12] <madman91> IdleOne:
[06:12] <koan> Synaptic also hangs when i try  to search, i am using feisty
[06:12] <madman91> IdleOne: basically it is only me ... but on 3 screens?
[06:13] <matjan> IdleOne, ok ;)
[06:13] <IdleOne> madman91: yeah sorta
[06:13] <IdleOne> madman91: it is normal I believe
[06:13] <madman91> IdleOne: is there a way to make it into 1 user?
[06:13] <IdleOne> madman91: i have 2 at all times
[06:13] <Pici> IrishDave: I thought there was something...  *maybe* qt4 or qt3-config might do it
[06:14] <koan> Any ideas guys
[06:14] <IdleOne> madman91: if it is not causing any problems then leave it alone :)
[06:14] <koan> How can i install xfce on my ubuntu feisty
[06:14] <IdleOne> !xfce

[06:15] <Greevous> Is anyone familiar with "downgrading" to a previous release? For example, from Fiesty to Dapper LTS?
[06:15] <Dark_Shadow> Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card can't find the driver
[06:15] <speaker219> Does anybody know if it's possible to disable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
[06:15] <speaker219> Dark_shadow, you need to use ndiswrapper.
[06:15] <madman91> how can i set/check the time through commandline?
[06:16] <speaker219> madman: set time
[06:16] <Dark_Shadow> thx speaker
[06:16] <madman91> thanks speaker219
[06:16] <IdleOne> Greevous: only a fresh install can do a downgrade but you want to backup /home if there are files you need
[06:16] <speaker219> So does anybody know if it's possible to disable Ctrl+Alt+backspace?
[06:16] <Greevous> IdleOne, so a fresh install from the live cd or alternate cd?
[06:16] <madman91> speaker219: i cant seem to find a man page ?
[06:16] <kapau> hey guys my ubuntu locks up upon loading hardware drivers...any ideas? :(
[06:16] <Pici> IrishDave:  Sorry then :/
[06:17] <matjan> Scunizi, sorry... i did lose connection just now...
[06:17] <IdleOne> Greevous: either provided it is a LTS cd
[06:17] <speaker219> madman91: hold on
[06:17] <Greevous> IdleOne, thank you very much
[06:17] <matjan> Scunizi, last post i saw from you was "k looking it up.."
[06:18] <speaker219> http://www.ss64.com/bash/set.html
[06:18] <Scunizi> matjan: yep.. looked at the setup screens for the modem.. did't see a location to configure port forwarding.

[06:20] <johnficca> I'm trying  to compile Gnash with agg rendering what is the configure switch for that ?
[06:20] <speaker219> madman91: do you have a GUI installed?
[06:20] <Scunizi> matjan: which model do you have?
[06:20] <madman91> speaker219: not on this particular computer.. no
[06:20] <GNine> it actually happens at any time at frequent intervals.
[06:21] <speaker219> i see
[06:21] <Pici> GNine: Perhaps trackerd or beagled is indexing your system, have you looked at top while this is happening?
[06:21] <matjan> Scunizi, bb0060
[06:21] <speaker219> madman91: also see http://www.ss64.com/bash/date.html
[06:21] <IrishDave> Pici: kcontrol worked and didnt require the whole of kde :)
[06:21] <Pici> IrishDave: Good :)
[06:21] <matjan> Scunizi, bb0060b even
[06:21] <madman91> thanks speaker219
[06:22] <IrishDave> Pici: at least all it installed didnt take long to download on a uni internet connection :D (easily get 100mb/s if the server would upload it)
[06:22] <GNine> pici: there is no indication for the annomally.  it just happens .. like right now while writing this line
[06:23] <Pici> GNine: And nothing is spiking in your `top` results?
[06:23] <Scunizi> matjan: here's a pretty complete link on how to setup the modem for portforwarding based on programs. By finding the specific program or looking at other configurations you'll get the idea on how to configure.  http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Gnet/BB0060B/BB0060Bindex.htm

[06:37] <therealnanotube> speaker219: well... i am trying to make a redirect to an external page. i know how to make redirects to internal pages (the usual #REDIRECT [[URL] ] ), but that doesn't work for external urls. it looks like i'd have to hack some source to do that. i tried looking around the source myself, but need some help.
[06:37] <jaime> my locales has changed suddenly to POSIX and i don't know how to get the others back, i have tried to reconfigure locales, console-data and so... but nothing, can someone help me?

[06:40] <therealnanotube> Wanderer: does dia or kivio read visio files?
[06:40] <jaime> :(
[06:40] <EvilIdler> jaime: See if you can find any bugs relating to your exact locale
[06:40] <jaime> ok
[06:40] <jaime> EvilIdler, thanks
[06:41] <EvilIdler> Mine was fixed by merely having -en installed (it's just a server), but I dread the day I need a couple of other languages on it :P

[08:28] (tatters/#ubuntu) owned by root ^^
[08:28] (rapid/#ubuntu) tatters, give permissions to your user to access video0
[08:29] (Falstius/#ubuntu) barduck: there is a script for updating dyndns automatically ..
[08:29] (Seveas/#ubuntu) tatters, which groep?
[08:29] (MrObvious/#ubuntu) xaoe: Are you using the livecd? That mgiht help.
[08:29] (Seveas/#ubuntu) group*
[08:29] <lxgg> heya
[08:29] (tatters/#ubuntu) I tried my user name but did not work
[08:29] <lxgg> does anyone know how to install a new network card in ubuntu ?
[08:29] (rapid/#ubuntu) insert the card.
[08:29] (rapid/#ubuntu) load the module
[08:29] (rapid/#ubuntu) what else?
[08:29] (MrObvious/#ubuntu) lxgg: What kind of network card?
[08:29] (rapid/#ubuntu) ifconfig?
[08:29] (Jack_Sparrow/#ubuntu) xaoe: If you are putting the image on the partition before trying to uncompress it to the same partition it will take more room than you plan.  If you did not exclude the backup file from the backup, that will almost double the size of your backup
[08:30] <tatters> so I need to add www-data into the group section and keep root as the owner?
[08:30] <barduck> The reason I ask this because I was using distro called ClarkConnect and it had a very nice script to do all these things
[08:30] <Seveas> tatters, I meant, what is the group of /dev/video0?
[08:30] <lxgg> MrObvious: 3com corporation 3c905b
[08:30] <MrObvious> lxgg: Is that an ethernet card or wi-fi?
[08:30] <xaoe> MrObvious: yes i used gparted on liveCD and SystemREscureCD too
[08:30] <slackfaceware> how well will kubuntu work on laptop
[08:30] <lxgg> MrObvious: ethernet
[08:30] <rapid> slackfaceware, gosh
[08:31] <rapid> slackfaceware, I've got it on my 500mhz laptop. it runs okay.
[08:31] <MrObvious> lxgg: Then just install the card into your PCI/USB/whatever port and then it should boot with the new card working.
[08:31] <rapid> slackfaceware, feisty fawn runs slow as hell but
[08:31] <drock> lxgg: That should install no problem.
[08:31] <slackfaceware> i got 1.46GHz and 1G ram
[08:31] <tatters> Seveas the group is video
[08:31] <rapid> slackfaceware, well expect it to run fast.
[08:31] <Chi11y> Hi
[08:31] <lxgg> drock: yea but how to I install it
[08:31] <MrObvious> lxgg: Support for NICs is not a problem. If it is then they are aplenty and a new one can be made for 10 bucks easily.
[08:31] <MrObvious> !hi
[08:31] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:31] <Seveas> tatters, sudo adduser www-data video
[08:31] <sayanriju> Chi11y: Hi
[08:31] <lxgg> MrObvious: okey thanks
[08:31] <MrObvious> lxgg: Do you mean actually in the PC?
[08:31] <Seveas> tatters, then www-data will be in the correct group to access the device
[08:31] <slackfaceware> will multi card reader work in kubuntu my laptop
[08:32] <Jack_Sparrow> slackfaceware: not likely
[08:32] <drock> lxgg: physically in the computer or driver?
[08:32] <kitche> barduck, as I said there is nothing built into linux for reconnection and such without making a shell script a very basic script can be ping -t www.anyurl.com
[08:32] <rapid> Jack_Sparrow, it should
[08:32] <lxgg> drock: driver
[08:32] <lxgg> MrObvious: driver
[08:32] <xaoe> Jack_Sparrow: i used partimage to restore the image to the partition
[08:32] <Jack_Sparrow> rapid: I have seen more not work than work
[08:32] <Chi11y> I'm doing a ubuntu-based distro, but would want the debain-installer instead of the ubuntu installer
[08:32] <tatters> Seveas: k thnx ,then I guess I should change the owner back to root afterward?
[08:32] <drock> lxgg: the linux kernel should handle without any setup
[08:32] <Seveas> tatters, that would be wise :)
[08:32] <rapid> jack_sparrow: fair enough.
[08:32] <lxgg> okey ill try to reboot then
[08:32] <MrObvious> Chi11y: Why?
[08:32] <Chi11y> my distro is very minimalistic :)
[08:32] <rapid> slackfaceware, you should install then handle the problems :)
[08:33] <rapid> probably not the wisest way.
[08:33] <rapid> but yeah
[08:33] <pzn> how do I enable "ssh root@server" to a ubuntu server?
[08:33] <seanj> I used to like minimalistic til I got old and wanted easy
[08:33] <Chi11y> and I find the ubuntuinstaller slower
[08:33] <slackfaceware> can i install and let linux handle it?
[08:33] <drock> lxgg: try running --> lspci  is it listed?
[08:33] <soundray> slackfaceware, Jack_Sparrow: I have tried several multi-card readers, and they all worked. YMMV
[08:33] <lwizardl> Hi
[08:33] <Jack_Sparrow> rapid: They should not be a problem.. but too many propietary setups and no drivers.
[08:33] <dfldf> anyone here using relakks.com service?
[08:33] <rapid> pzn: check you ssh config to allow root, thought I strongly wouldn't; suggest this
[08:33] <attunix> Isn't there a command where if I have multiple boot screens installed, it lets me choose which one? Because I did sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop. Later, I removed it, but the boot screen (with the loading bar) remained. Please help.
[08:33] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> can any one please let me know what  "ls -la /usr" says
[08:33] <sayanriju> Chi11y: i thght they hav the debian-installer in ubuntu!
[08:33] <rapid> haha
[08:33] <kitche> !usplash | attunix
[08:33] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> i have root
[08:33] <rapid> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo, why?
[08:33] <regal> hey, this is gonna sound nubile, but does anyone know much about ubuntu installations?
[08:33] <ubotu> attunix: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:33] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: Most all multicard readers..ie  USB work just fine.. it is the internal laptop ones that seem to be a problem
[08:34] <rapid> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo, ubuntu has no root
[08:34] <pzn> rapid, yes, it is allowed. however, It still says "wrong password".
[08:34] <drock> attunix:  sudo apt-get install usplash-ubuntu maybe?
[08:34] <rapid> AMD-ubuntuPOWEo, use sudo
[08:34] <sayanriju> lwizardl: Hi
[08:34] <lwizardl> when I used gnome partition editor to format a drive it didn't give my user write acces how do i fix that
[08:34] <barduck> kitche: ok, thanks. I need something more robust than that, I will continue my search
[08:34] <rapid> pzn: did you restart sshd?
[08:34] <xaoe> can i copy all files on ubuntu-partition to an other medium, reszie te partition and then put the files back on it?
[08:34] <attunix> kitche: Thanks
[08:34] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> rapid its root
[08:34] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> $ ls -la /usr
[08:34] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> total 124
[08:34] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> drwxr-xr-x  11 root root
[08:34] <Enselic> lwizardl: run the gnome partition editor with root privliges, i.e. start it with
[08:34] <Enselic> sudo
[08:34] <pzn> rapid, sorry... I was using other server password. it is working ok :)
[08:35] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: those tend to be SD-only, though.
[08:35] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> my gdm wont work i think this is why
[08:35] <drock> attunix:   sudo apt-get install usplash-theme-ubuntu
[08:35] <lwizardl> Enselic, and that will give my normal user write acces after the drive is formated & mounted?
[08:35] <regal> see, i've got a ibm thinkpad, i series and niether dapper, edgy, or feisty will work
[08:36] <soundray> lwizardl: no, I reckon Enselic hasn't fully understood your question :)
[08:36] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: I may have incorrectly assumed he was talking about his internal laptop reader...
[08:36] <Enselic> lwizardl: do you mean for those using the partition? the permissions then have nothing to do with how the partition was made (though, you must of course chooise a particion that supports permissions)
[08:36] <aguitel> !sbackup

[08:37] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:37] <Enselic> lwizardl: what kind of file system is it?
[08:37] <sayanriju> lwizardl: what filesystem on it???
[08:38] <drock> Jack_Sparrow:  it handles open files ok too?
[08:38] <Chi11y> is there a better app than remastersys for creating a iso based of a installed system? remastersys works well for me, but I would want more configuration

[08:38] <dbe> How to make a proper DHCP_RELEASE to the DHCP server, to free up the IP?
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: You can use it while the system is running and online if you want
[08:38] <lwizardl> currently its ext3
[08:38] <bruenig> dbe, I would just bring the interface down
[08:38] <AdemoS|Away> Getting this error /bin/sh/ can't access tty: job control turned off
[08:39] <moriancumer> Chi11y: does remastersys work with fiesty? I thought I had problems.
[08:39] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: You are looking for reconstructor perhaps?
[08:39] <drock> Jack_Sparrow: hmm, might beat the gui app I'm using. What is the command?
[08:39] <dbe> bruenig: Are you _sure_ that release the IP from the DHCP servers side?
[08:39] <lwizardl> does ext3 have any issues with large files
[08:39] <sayanriju> lwizardl: what is the line corrsponding to dat artition in ur /etc/fstab ?
[08:39] <sayanriju> *partition
[08:39] <bruenig> dbe, not positive, man dhclient to see if they have some explicit in that regard
[08:39] <Chi11y> moriancumer: it works for me
[08:39] <AdemoS> I tried several forum answers, but nothing has worked so far
[08:39] <dbe> bruenig: I need it to initialize a new MAC address from another NIC.
[08:39] <Chi11y> moriancumer: ..as far as I know
[08:39] <bruenig> something*
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: sudo su....  cd /   ...    tar cvpzf backupdell.tgz --exclude=/backupdell.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found  --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media --exclude=/root/.Trash -- /
[08:40] <drock> Sparrow: TY
[08:40] <Chi11y> moriancumer: I haven't found a good installer yet
[08:40] <dbe> bruenig: It won't.
[08:40] <AdemoS> I dont' know how or why a job control would be off
[08:40] <aguitel> Jack_Sparrow,thanks yes i use ntfs-config and later i make backup stored in ntfs partition
[08:40] <AdemoS> could be a burn error?
[08:40] <AdemoS> *it be
[08:40] <soundray> lwizardl: once you go over 16GB, you *may* have trouble
[08:40] <sayanriju> Chi11y:  write your own installer script!!
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: Change the name of the backup as needed.. but change BOTH occurances to keep from including the backup tar in the backup process
[08:40] <xaoe> can i copy all files from ubuntu-system-partition to an other medium, reszie te partition and then put the files back on it?
[08:41] <sayanriju> xaoe:  u can copy everything 4m a partition to another
[08:41] <moriancumer> Chi11y: have you tried it with fiesty?
[08:41] <drock> Sparrow: yeah, I see that. Recursion can be nasty. Recursion can be nasty.
[08:41] <Jack_Sparrow> xaoe: Yes...  you cal also use the above command to simplify the process.
[08:41] <Jack_Sparrow> can
[08:41] <fdoving> attunix: ref. your question in #ubuntu-devel, if you didn't figure it out yet: from a terminal: 'sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so' that's the initial boot-screen.
[08:42] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> how can i find bugs i posted at https://bugs.launchpad.net
[08:42] <Chi11y> moriancumer; Ihave successfully created a livecd based on fiesty, I haven't tried installed it yet
[08:42] <AdemoS> Does anyone know what my error means?  /bin/sh/ can't access tty: job control turned off
[08:42] <Chi11y> moriancumer; but that time I used the bootscripts of mint
[08:42] <slackfaceware> the card reader won't work in linux
[08:42] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: The restore version is...   tar xvpfz backupdell.tgz -C /                    change the name to suit your needs.
[08:42] <slackfaceware> i've checke
[08:42] <soundray> lwizardl: but you can create ext3 filesystems with parameters such that a single file may be 64 terabytes.
[08:42] <slackfaceware> checked
[08:42] <drock> Sparrow: Thanks. Hope I never need that ;)
[08:42] <lwizardl> ok what about other filesystems
[08:42] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Is that during the install and it recurs
[08:43] <rapid> Pici, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui
[08:43] <rapid>  i ran that. and still no go
[08:43] <lwizardl> currently my highest file size on my computer is 12.3gb
[08:43] <Chi11y> sayanriju: how would a installation script work, I'm not very experienced in those things
[08:43] <ker> #panas
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> drock: Yea, but it is handy to have when you need it..
[08:43] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: I get that message after the boot menu
[08:43] <AdemoS> Right after I choose "Start and Install Unbuntu"
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: You are trying to run livecd and install correct?
[08:43] <NineTails> Hello
[08:43] <kanedaddy> hey
[08:43] <AdemoS> correct
[08:44] <drock> Jack_Sparrow:  I may have it save to a Samba share so Veritas can pick it up on the nightly.
[08:44] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Burn a new one but burn it very slow...
[08:44] <xaoe> thx everyone! bb
[08:44] <sayanriju> Chi11y: ok then...dont try it if u donno about the installatn process!!!
[08:44] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: What speed?
[08:44] <kanedaddy> unsure
[08:44] <NineTails> ?
[08:44] <Chi11y> sayanriju: yeh I think that is best :)
[08:44] <lwizardl> when i do a sudo nano /etc/fstab i don't see the hdd point (hdd is the drive in gnome partition editor)
[08:44] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: I had some trouble so I burned one at 8 and it resolved many problems..
[08:44] <therealnanotube> NineTails: wassup
[08:44] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: ah okay, I'll check my speed
[08:45] <soundray> lwizardl: fstab doesn't hold drive names. It holds partition names. man fstab
[08:45] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Stupid thing is.. it md5'd fine and self test was fine..
[08:45] <AdemoS> >_< I know
[08:45] <AdemoS> I can't even get mine to self test
[08:45] <AdemoS> it gives that same message when I choose "check disc for errors'
[08:45] <soundray> lwizardl: to create an ext3 for large files, use mke2fs -T largefile (man mke2fs)
[08:45] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: It just would not install until I burned it at a slow speed.. other than that.. get the alternate cd..
[08:45] <AdemoS> okay
[08:46] <lwizardl> soundray, correct but it does list the mount like hdc. hdd,etc
[08:46] <therealnanotube> Jack_Sparrow: yea, the whole burn error problem really sucks, especially when they are not detected by tests...
[08:46] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: I checked, my currnet disc was buirned at 16x
[08:46] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: I'll try 8x
[08:46] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Sorry it isnt a good answer..
[08:46] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: If it solves the problem, it's a fine answer :P
[08:47] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: It solved the problem on a couple of different installs I have done
[08:47] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: ALright, well I have a good ammont of CDRs so I'll try it
[08:47] <therealnanotube> anyone proficient with mediawiki and php? need some help with redirects...
[08:47] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: I just bought 800 at frys...  $9 per 100
[08:47] <sayanriju> Chi11y: mind telling a bit bout ur distro??
[08:47] <mikeskde> noob q: How do I end a session on a virtual console that's no longer accepting bash input?
[08:48] <sayanriju> coz i've myself made my own recently! :)
[08:48] <burgermann> Hi. Does anyone know how to exit to shell_
[08:48] <burgermann> ?
[08:48] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: Hah, nice deal, but I'll take your $9 dollars and rise you $0 :P I was given a couple stacks for free
[08:48] <sayanriju> burgermann:  exit
[08:48] <Chi11y> sayanriju: yes :) It's going to be a minimalistic desktop distro with openbox
[08:48] <therealnanotube> burgermann: exit a shell, or exit from X to a shell?
[08:48] <sayanriju> Chi11y: wow! mine uses Fluxbox!
[08:48] <AdemoS> Jack_Sparrow: anyway, I'll try 8x now
[08:48] <Bergcube> Quick question:  The text-mode installer routines that are on the install CD...  Are they left on the disk of a installed system somewhere?  Is there some way to restart/rerun PARTS of the setup dialogues after the setup is done?
[08:49] <Chi11y> sayanriju: cool :O
[08:49] <burgermann> therealnanotube: exit from X to shell
[08:49] <speaker219> hello
[08:49] <sayanriju> Chi11y: is it gonna b a live cd?
[08:49] <Chi11y> sayanriju: what loginmanager do you use?
[08:49] <drock> burgermann: Instead of exting to GDM?  I often hit ctrl+alt+F2 for TTY2
[08:49] <therealnanotube> mikeskde: what do you mean exactly?
[08:49] <Chi11y> sayanriju: I think so
[08:49] <burgermann> drock: Oh, thx
[08:49] <Chi11y> sayanriju: but in that case I would need a fast installer
[08:49] <sayanriju> Chi11y: then y dont u use the linux-live scripts!
[08:49] <drock>  burgermann: X will still be running on TTY7
[08:49] <therealnanotube> burgermann: well, if you are ok not quitting X, but just switching away from it, you can switch to a vty with "ctl-alt-f2" (switch batk to x with ctl-alt-f7)
[08:50] <therealnanotube> burgermann: if you want to actually exit X, log out, then switch to a vty like i said above, and run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[08:50] <Piyush_1q> Hiya everyone, two questions. 1: What is the next release of ubuntu after 7.04 and where to get it?   2. How to uninstall Gaim. Synaptec wants to remove ubuntu-desktop with gaim
[08:50] <kitche> !gutsy | Piyush_1q
[08:50] <ubotu> Piyush_1q: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[08:50] <drock> therealnanotube: hes gone
[08:51] <therealnanotube> drock: i saw that after i posted. :)
[08:51] <speaker219> therealnanotube, do you know if its possible in Xchat-gnome to open a PM tab instead of just like in the channel?
[08:51] <soundray> Piyush_1q: you can safely remove ubuntu-desktop. It is just a metapackage, consisting of dependencies.
[08:51] <drock> therealnanotube: I like your solution better
[08:51] <seanj> /query nickname
[08:51] <drock> !ps
[08:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ps - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:51] <Piyush_1q> soundray, after I install the new Gaim, do I have to reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[08:52] <soundray> Piyush_1q: however, I would suggest you just leave gaim and ubuntu-desktop installed. It's not like gaim would cause trouble if you don't use it.
[08:52] <sauvin> speaker, why don't you download a real xchat? xchat-gnome isn't very good.
[08:52] <livingdaylight> hello
[08:52] <soundray> Piyush_1q: what new gaim?
[08:52] <sayanriju> Piyush_1q: go for Pidgin
[08:52] <therealnanotube> speaker219: well, just start pming someone, and a new pm tab opens automatically
[08:52] <speaker219> therealnanotube, doesn't work for me
[08:52] <livingdaylight> is there a solution to get shockwave working in firefox/linux?
[08:52] <Piyush_1q> soundray, Gaim is not Pidgin
[08:52] <cox377> is there anyway of playing a music file from command line?
[08:52] <cox377> providing there are speakers attached?
[08:52] <drock> brb
[08:52] <rapid> mpg123
[08:52] <rapid> cox377, mpg123
[08:52] <rapid> cox377, aplay
[08:52] <soundray> Piyush_1q: why are you telling me that?
[08:53] <therealnanotube> speaker219: so what happens when you pm someone? where does that show up? or what happens if i pm you?
[08:53] <cox377> rapid: so mpg123 aplay?
[08:53] <rapid> cox377, aplay for wav.
[08:53] <MrObvious> livingdaylight: I may get flamed for this, but wine IE and install shockwave through wine.
[08:53] <rapid> cox377, mpg123 for mp3
[08:53] <soundray> !ubotu > therealnanotube, you should have a pm from ubotu now
[08:53] <Piyush_1q> soundray, you asked what new Gaim, I want to remove old gaim and add Pidgin, but removing old gaim removes ubuntu-desktop too..
[08:53] <drock> Just installed xchat.  Much better than xchat-gnome
[08:53] <sauvin> therealnanotube, when I pm somebody with the /msg syntax from a channel window, no new window opens up. When somebody pms ME, the message goes into a new tab.
[08:53] <rapid> cox377, if you don't have it, try, sudo apt-get install mpg123
[08:53] <cox377> rapid: it's a .pls file?
[08:54] <therealnanotube> soundray: yea, that worked :)
[08:54] <rapid> cox377, thats a playlist.
[08:54] <aurelie> hello
[08:54] <MrObvious> livingdaylight: But there are of course security risks running IE anyway.
[08:54] <livingdaylight> MrObvious, is that the only way? :/
[08:54] <soundray> Piyush_1q: so, don't remove gaim. Just install pidgin.
[08:54] <sauvin> speaker219, do you see a userlist along the right side of the XChat window?
[08:54] <cox377> rapid: it's an audio stream
[08:54] <MrObvious> livingdaylight: :( Yup
[08:54] <therealnanotube> sauvin: hmm, yea, same here, it seems
[08:54] <rapid> cox377: try play it with mpg123
[08:54] <aurelie> hello evry body!!!
[08:54] <speaker219> no sauvin, i don't
[08:54] <MrObvious> livingdaylight: Actually I take that back. You can run Wine with Firefox.
[08:54] <speaker219> i'm using Xchat-gnome
[08:54] <livingdaylight> MrObvious, so everyone gets shockwave plugins except linux people?
[08:54] <etalli> Can anyone help me with my wireless internet connection?
[08:54] <sauvin> Speaker219, this is sorta why I'm asking why you don't download a real xchat.
[08:55] <rapid> etalli: whats the problem
[08:55] <MrObvious> speaker219: Try installing the real xchat.
[08:55] <etalli> rapid:  It won't connect.
[08:55] <MrObvious> speaker219: You'll need to enable the repo for it. Follow what ubotu says next:
[08:55] <MrObvious> !EasySource
[08:55] <livingdaylight> MrObvious, so, install a windows version of firefox and then run it with wine?

[08:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xchat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:55] <MrObvious> livingdaylight: Install through wine.
[08:55] <Tu3sday> etalli, do 'lspci | grep Wireless'
[08:55] <soundray> !wifi > etalli, please read ubotu's private message.
[08:55] <Tu3sday> etalli, you have to tell us what you're working with

[08:57] <aajvs99> any one  have a guide to making an ubuntu based distro?
[08:57] <rapid> aajvs99, hmm try LFS
[08:57] <BENN92647> just go to the communtiy page
[08:57] <rapid> aajvs99, more fun
[08:58] <aajvs99> i did
[08:58] <aajvs99> they said to ask ubuntu support
[08:58] <Kimbie> Can someone tell me when I run Ubuntu from the grub menu i get a black screen and the desktop does not show, however if i use recovery mode then when at the prompt do startx it will load the desktop fine?
[08:58] <BENN92647> they have all the information there to make your own disrtos
[08:58] <sayanriju> aajvs99: what type of distro xactly?
[08:58] <etalli> Tu3sday: soundray: rapid:  I've got the Dell one that is really a Broadcom, and I am using ndiswrapper.  However, it still doesn't work.
[08:58] <aajvs99> well i wanted to make it based off ubuntu
[08:58] <rapid> ndiswrapper
[08:58] <aajvs99> so that i could create a disk that has my current apps installed
[08:58] <BENN92647> I am not sure, I just knowthey have all the tools on the site
[08:58] <aajvs99> just so i can quickly install it again on my comp if need be
[08:58] <sayanriju> aajvs99: a live cd??
[08:58] <soundray> etalli: I've heard that you need fwcutter with broadcom and ubuntu.
[08:58] <Tu3sday> etalli, so it's a bcm43xx?
[08:59] <aajvs99> yah i guess live
[08:59] <drock> soundray: 3 queries is not abuse
[08:59] <aajvs99> currently i have the app Reconstructor
[08:59] <Tu3sday> etalli, i'd personally stay away from fwcutter
[08:59] <Chi11y> aajvs99 that app is good :)
[08:59] <MrObvious> etalli: I use a bcm43xx on my home PC and I use fwcutter and it works fine.
[08:59] <aajvs99> ok
[08:59] <BENN92647> but if you do make a new distro PLEASE have built in flash support :)
[08:59] <MrObvious> etalli: Specifically a 4318
[08:59] <aajvs99> well yah
[08:59] <etalli> MrObvious: I have the same as you
[08:59] <Tu3sday> i use bcm43xx on my home desktop and ndiswrapper worked beautifully
[08:59] <rapid> if i were to make a distro i deffinately wouldn't base it around ubuntu
[08:59] <soundray> drock: sorry, I didn't mean to imply that, just to suggest you use msg if your query is unrelated to the current discussion.
[09:00] <sayanriju> aajvs99: take a look at linux-live scripts
[09:00] <MrObvious> etalli: Okay. Yeah install bcm43xx-fwcutter. I'll find the firmware you need then.
[09:00] <sayanriju> do a google
[09:00] <aajvs99> ok
[09:00] <BENN92647> which brings me to my biggest problem...I cant find my mozilla plug in folder...anyone know where it might be hiding?
[09:00] <aajvs99> is there an app to base it on something else?
[09:00] <drock> soundray: np, no offense taken
[09:00] <etalli> I suspect it might have something to do with my network.  Others have worked on and off.
[09:00] <rapid> BENN92647, ~/.mozzila?
[09:00] <sauvin> That would be "mozilla".
[09:00] <etalli> I have a WEP secured network, and I can't get it to connect
[09:00] <rapid> ah
[09:00] <BENN92647> rapid-do i type that in terminal\
[09:01] <rapid> etalli: iwconfig wlan0 essid <essid> key s:yourkey
[09:01] <sayanriju> aajvs99: linux live scripts can make a live cd off your current installtion....ubuntu or nethng else!
[09:01] <BENN92647> i cant find the plug in folder
[09:01] <skibum58> double check your key entry - one false letter/number and you're hosed
[09:01] <aajvs99> yah i wanted to include compiz
[09:01] <aajvs99> and nvidia drivers
[09:01] <aajvs99> is that illegal tho?
[09:01] <aajvs99> the nvidia shit
[09:02] <MrObvious> etalli: http://boredklink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o After you install fwcutter download that.
[09:02] <BENN92647> AND...Flash player support..dont forget that aajvs99
[09:02] <MrObvious> aajvs99: Watch the language.
[09:02] <sayanriju> aajvs99: illegal??
[09:02] <aajvs99> sorry
[09:02] <aajvs99> yah
[09:02] <aajvs99> the nvidia drivers
[09:02] <rapid> BENN92647, that is the directory..
[09:02] <MrObvious> etalli: foo@bar:~$ sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter wl_apsta.o -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[09:02] <soundray> !enter | aajvs99
[09:02] <ubotu> aajvs99: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:02] <aajvs99> can i include those?
[09:02] <aajvs99> hahaha
[09:02] <sayanriju> aajvs99: why not!!
[09:02] <aajvs99> sorry
[09:02] <aajvs99> i dunno
[09:02] <etalli> rapid: should the key be in hex or the readable passcode
[09:02] <aajvs99> but i cant include the mp3 codecs can i?
[09:02] <MrObvious> etalli: foo@bar:~$ sudo aptitude -f install
[09:03] <rapid> etalli: the S
[09:03] <MrObvious> etalli: Here is my reference: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=525201&highlight=bcm4318+fwcutter+firmware
[09:03] <rapid> etalli: means readable
[09:03] <sayanriju> aajvs99: they r not ILLEGAL AFAIK...just their license is not open source /FREE
[09:03] <BENN92647> i dont have a dir- or directory folder?
[09:03] <aajvs99> thats what i wanted to know
[09:03] <drock> I ran wireshark on my network (60+ Workstations).  What would normal netbios traffic look like? Seems like this one NIC is hogging the net.
[09:03] <rapid> etalli: without the s it would be in hex
[09:03] <aajvs99> well i plan to host the distro at http://avs.yfma.com/forum/
[09:03] <etalli> MrObvious: I already have the fwcutter installed, and firmware
[09:03] <aajvs99> so if you guys want to check it out
[09:04] <MrObvious> etalli: Then encryption should work. I've gotten it to work.

[09:14] <InsomniaCity> Hi! Is there a way to start another sshd on another port while I mess around with the config for the main port 22 server?
[09:14] <aajvs99> i got em
[09:14] <aajvs99> thanks guys
[09:14] <sayanriju> aajvs99: was it in .gnupg??
[09:14] <drock> InsomniaCity: good question. I could use that info too.

[09:15] <hamadooo> bye
[09:15] <InsomniaCity> drock: lol, yeah.
[09:15] <westly> differnet between apt-get and apptitude?
[09:15] <rapid> Yachi, hows it going
[09:15] <christian> SAM_theman, rapid, ubotu and drock: tnx, I will check it out. :)
[09:15] <InsomniaCity> drock: the alternative is an at job that copies in the old config and restarts sshd
[09:15] <Yachi> rapid, im gettin the same error
[09:15] <BENN92647> can someone help me to get flash player to work or tell me how i can play flash player videos with sound in something else?
[09:15] <InsomniaCity> drock: but thats still a little edgy for me
[09:15] <kyncani> xaoe: copy it in a temporary location with cp -la, then delete the except dir in the copy, then make your regular copy would work i believe (not tested though)
[09:15] <rapid> BENN92647, run the installer. it will install to your home dir by default.
[09:15] <Yachi> rapid, install ath_pci.ko //lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/net
[09:15] <Yachi> install: cannot stat `ath_pci.ko': No such file or directory
[09:15] <Yachi> make[1] : *** [install]  Error 1
[09:15] <whaq> Hello, does anyone run VMWare on top of Ubuntu? Any recomendation (6.06 vs 7.04, desktop vs server) based on your experience?
[09:15] <Yachi> hah
[09:16] <drock> InsomniaCity:you can have two: Port 22  and Port 8022 edit lines in your sshd_config
[09:16] <jherrera> when I double click a shell script, it asks me if I want to run it, display it or run it in a terminal, but I want to be the default behavior for scripts to automatically ran, how can I do this?
[09:16] <xaoe> id like to use "cp -a * .[^.] * destination". how can i exclude one certain folder?
[09:16] <InsomniaCity> drock: yeah, but I'm paranoid enough that I don't want to mess around with the only sshd
[09:16] <jherrera> I'm using GNOME
[09:16] <BENN92647> -rapid i found the folder but there is no plug in folder in it
[09:16] <SoulChild> how do i fix this message at boot: "intel_rng: FWH not detected"???
[09:16] <MrObvious> whaq: 7.04 desktop is probably the best.
[09:16] <genii> jherrera: terminal then
[09:16] <drock> Insomnia City: sudo nano /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[09:17] <rapid> BENN92647, create the plugins folder.
[09:17] <jherrera> genii
[09:17] <jherrera> genii ?
[09:17] <rapid> BENN92647, and just dump the .so in there
[09:17] <kyncani> xaoe: did you understand what i said ?
[09:17] <jherrera> what do you mean?
[09:17] <jherrera> I don't want the dialog to be displayed, but I want the script to run automatically when dbl clicked
[09:17] <drock> InsomniaCity: back it up before you mess with it.  And only mess with it at the console itself. Never remotely
[09:18] <InsomniaCity> drock: console is not an option
[09:18] <whaq> MrObvious: I read that with 7.04 you need recompile the kernel to include VMware modules, and that 6.06 may not need that step (precompiled?)
[09:18] <InsomniaCity> dedi box
[09:18] <genii> Ah, you don't want the dialog to appear at all then
[09:18] <attunix> How do I install the ubuntustudio-desktop file? Apt-get gives me "E: Couldn't find package ubuntustudio-desktop."
[09:18] <BENN92647> wooo! i figured it out..TEXT EDITOR RULES, just open up the pluginreg.dat file and it tells you were your plug in folder is hiding :)
[09:18] <benji_> are there any ipod tools that let me copy videos across to my ipod?
[09:18] <genii> jherrera: Ah, you don't want the dialog to appear at all then
[09:18] <kyncani> xaoe: you could also temporarily move the part you don't want to copy before cp -a everything
[09:18] <drock> InsomniaCity:  oh well
[09:18] <whaq> MrObvious: this should be obvious to you.. but are you giving your advice based on your experience?
[09:18] <westly> most program install on what directory or folder?
[09:18] <rapid> where ever you want
[09:18] <MrObvious> whaq: Just what is the best based on basic needs.
[09:18] <Yachi> rapid?
[09:18] <drock> I'm at my console. let's see. brb
[09:18] <rapid> yachi?
[09:19] <kshah> irc smack talk
[09:19] <Martijn_Alkmaar> someone who's speak Dutch?
[09:19] <whaq> MrObvious: what do you mean?
[09:19] <xaoe>  id like to use "cp -a * .[^.] * destination". how can i exclude one certain directory?
[09:19] <RichW> Hey, my friend has a ipod and wants to transfer videos to it? Can someone tell me what he needs to do?
[09:19] <MrObvious> whaq: 7.04 is more updated and the desktop would let you do the most standard features that you need.
[09:19] <BENN92647> Hi Indy!
[09:19] <Yachi> rapid, you know what the problem is?
[09:19] <kyncani> xaoe: use rsync (third solution)
[09:19] <attunix> Martijn_Alkmaar: Try the ubuntu Dutch room.
[09:19] <IndyGunFreak> BENN92647: hi.... do i know you?
[09:20] <rapid> Yachi, try #madwifi
[09:20] <Yachi> ok
[09:20] <rapid> Yachi, not sure
[09:20] <whaq> MrObvious: ok, I would suggest that you refrain from giving advices to topics that you don't have first hand POSITIVE experience with so as not to confuse other users. I know you mean wel.
[09:20] <attunix> Martijn_Alkmaar: It's #ubuntu-nl
[09:20] <Martijn_Alkmaar> where can I find a Dutch Ubuntu room?
[09:21] <Martijn_Alkmaar> Thanks, I try it there!
[09:21] <joris_> Martijn_Alkmaar: I believe there are some dutch ubuntu forums
[09:21] <drock> InsomniaCity: Looks like it can be done.  You'd have to do some NAT on the firewall.
[09:21] <whaq> MrObvious: translation : lol, stfu n00b!
[09:21] <InsomniaCity> drock: NAT what? why?
[09:21] <xaoe> kyncani: yes i understand. i want to exclude the directory with the mounted partition on which i want to copy
[09:21] <drock> InsomniaCity: for both ports
[09:22] <speaker219> #ubuntu-nl
[09:22] <benji_> are there any ipod tools that let me copy videos across to my ipod?
[09:22] <westly> how to launch a program from terminal?
[09:22] <InsomniaCity> westly: type its name.
[09:22] <drock> InsomniaCity: or do you an more than one ssh session for a remote host?
[09:22] <drock> sorry want
[09:22] <kyncani> xaoe: use rsync -x would do i believe
[09:22] <kyncani> xaoe: man rsync
[09:22] <InsomniaCity> drock: sorry, don't know what you're getting at
[09:22] <benji_> are there any ipod tools that let me copy videos across to my ipod?
[09:23] <drock> InsomniaCity: Do you want more than one ssh session with a remote host?
[09:23] <Krooks> Where is the best place to put swap ? The first partition( inner part of the disk) or the last partition( the outer part of the disk) ?
[09:23] <SoulChild> My System boots in 28 seconds ,.. do you want to know why ?
[09:23] <getoo> can i install ubuntu on a mac ???
[09:23] <InsomniaCity> drock: no.
[09:23] <westly> <InsomniaCity: thanks, it works, but what is the default folder for programm begin install
[09:23] <sayanriju>  getoo: maybe
[09:23] <getoo> sayanriju: k
[09:23] <BENN92647> ok how do i log in to root?
[09:24] <InsomniaCity> westly: depends on how you installed stuff. What are you trying to run?
[09:24] <drock> ok sorry misunderstood
[09:24] <SoulChild> BENN92647: log out and type root in login screen ??? :D
[09:24] <jherrera> BENN92647 what for?, use sudo instead
[09:24] <sayanriju> benji_: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Ipod_video
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> BENN92647: use sudo.
[09:24] <BENN92647> can someone tell me how to log in to root?
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> BENN92647: use sudo
[09:24] <BENN92647> how do i use sudo?
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> uh.. sudo  command
[09:24] <aguitel> sudo su
[09:24] <benji_> yes i did that
[09:24] <westly> InsomniaCity: trying to add short cut with launcher
[09:24] <drock> BENN92647: X or console?
[09:24] <benji_> but the video doesnt actually come up on the ipod
[09:25] <InsomniaCity> westly: aha. run "which <program>" in a terminal, that'll tell you where it is
[09:25] <BENN92647> so if i want to access my NTFS drive whatdo i put in the command line so linux lets me?
[09:25] <kyncani> Krooks: having investigated it a while ago, i don't think there is any definite answer and both would really not matter. Using more ram is the only thing that really speeds up disk access and remove swapping.
[09:25] <gumpman155> hello I was just trying out the new linux system
[09:25] <Krooks> ok thanks

[09:28] <IndyGunFreak> Martijn_Alkmaar: how did you lose it?.. did you delete it?

[09:32] <InsomniaCity> Fooller: I'd ask #firefox on irc.mozilla.org - but I doubt you can
[09:32] <retric> sayanriju: yes. on my lenovo t60 and after what I have read it should work "out of the box"?
[09:32] <retric> sayanriju: intel 950
[09:32] <whaq> benji_: according to the howto on howtoforge.com, the 7.04 install needs a kernel module compile

[09:49] <bulot> Hello Have you guys experienced any lack or poor Internet connectivity with Festy Fawn
[09:49] <bulot> ????
[09:49] <AMD-ubuntuPOWEo> only 3 helpful people here today
[09:50] <retric> sayanriju: used slackware and stuff a long time ago though but doesn't help me no i guess :P
[09:50] <bulot> The most incredible thing is that using my laptop Internet rocks, but in my desktop just sucks
[09:50] <AdemoS> [15:48]  <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Personally,.. I use isorecorder freeware <--- well the boot issues don't seem to occur on other computers, I can get to Live CD on other computers. But I wiped the harddisk with KillDisk before installing this, and the computer is a new dell notebook
[09:50] <AdemoS> so I don't think it's the hardware
[09:50] <mattgyver83> Is anyone using tightvnc on linux?
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: Dells are the ones that have given me the most trouble.. Have you tried the alternate cd?
[09:51] <AdemoS> Downloaded that now
[09:51] <AdemoS> I'll try burning it
[09:51] <AdemoS> 8x?
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> sure
[09:51] <AdemoS> alright

[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: I need to run out for lunch date soon... good luck....
[09:53] <neverblue> AdemoS, what are you working on?
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> slow as possible
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> AdemoS: the alternate install CD though, is text based installer, its not a live cd
[09:53] <Jack_Sparrow> neverblue: He is trying to install feisty on new Dell Laptop
[09:53] <neverblue> ah

[09:54] <Nattgew> jherrera, look in the nautilus preferences
[09:55] <AdemoS> 15:53]  <Jack_Sparrow> AdemoS: I need to run out for lunch date soon... good luck.... <--- thanks see ya
[09:55] <bulot> I believe that the problem has somethig to do with IPV6
[09:55] <scguy318> retric: just paste bin the file
[09:56] <bulot> I mean the internet problem?
[09:56] <AdemoS> [15:53]  <IndyGunFreak> AdemoS: the alternate install CD though, is text based installer, its not a live cd <-- well, I'll see if it works out
[09:56] <sayanriju> retric: http://marchlinux.pastebin.com/
[09:56] <sayanriju> u may use that
[09:56] <Nattgew> bulot if you look on the forums/google you should find how to disable ipv6
[09:56] <BRUUUCE> is anyone familiar with proftpd?
[09:56] <Nattgew> !ipv6
[09:57] <benji_> omg gtkpod just worked :O:O:O:O

[09:57] <IndyGunFreak> AdemoS: it should, I prefer the Alt. install cd
[09:57] <AdemoS> okay
[09:57] <AdemoS> I'll try it
[09:57] <neverblue> AdemoS, take a step back for a second, your just doing a new install?
[09:57] <AdemoS> thanks
[09:57] <AdemoS> yes
[09:57] <neverblue> AdemoS, seems like you have the help you need ;)
[09:58] <AdemoS> I'd prefer a LiveCD, because I wanted to test the hardware etc, before installing
[09:58] <AdemoS> but if I can't use it
[09:58] <AdemoS> I'll go with Alternate
[09:58] <neverblue> BRUUUCE, I am, and #proftpd is very familiar with it
[09:58] <benji_> now to get vmware server running lol
[09:58] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[09:58] <neverblue> AdemoS, having you attempted an install yet?

[10:23] <jrattner1> QUESTION: How do I make a program start when the system starts up, (not the window manager)?
[10:23] <jrattner1> Or run a command
[10:24] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> open a terminal window
[10:24] <jrattner1> ftoo_on_gutsy_ yep

[10:25] <jrattner1> sirjoshimus chmod +x file.bin then ./file.bin
[10:25] <jrattner1> dyrne ahh not a bad idea....

[10:31] <chuckp108> lol
[10:31] <ubotu> WorJu: 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

[10:31] <zePh7r> MrObvious, it's not too hot or anything...
[10:31] <MrObvious> zePh7r: Also is your HD going crazy?
[10:32] <MrObvious> zePh7r: If it is then you might have desktop effects loaded.

[10:34] <manawyddan> hello everyone, does anyone know how to config xorg?
[10:34] <zePh7r> I tryed to install ati drivers in ubuntu feisty and now my touchpad is choppy. any hints? I had previously configured my xorg.conf to load synaptics drivers and everything was working fine
[10:34] <dyrne> manawyddan: what card. etc well need a bit more info
[10:34] <BrowneR> manawyddan: whats your problem?
[10:34] <kornet> i am trying to get neverwinternights to work. i am stuck at the glx install, witch one do i need for feisty? glx, legacy or new???
[10:34] <Fub> synaptic suddenlly doesn't want to run, says Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[10:35] <Fub> Xlib: No protocol specified
[10:35] <manawyddan> i'm having problems with my wireless usb mouse
[10:35] <dyrne> kornet: what is your card?
[10:35] <Fub> has anyone experienced this?
[10:35] <kornet> oh sorry mx4000-v64
[10:35] <dyrne> Fub: try sudo pkill apt-get; sudo pkill synaptic  <-- maybe
[10:35] <zePh7r> MrObvious, I don't have desktop effects loaded
[10:36] <zePh7r> MrObvious, I can still vaguely know what I do
[10:36] <Fub> dyrne, thanks, but it didn't work:(
[10:36] <manawyddan> i've plug it in and it worked for a while...
[10:36] <MrObvious> zePh7r: No clue then, unless your CPU is getting used heavy by a process.
[10:36] <NativeAngels> hello
[10:36] <kornet> dyrne:oh sorry mx4000-v64
[10:36] <manawyddan> but now nothing i can seem to get it to work.
[10:37] <NativeAngels> im after help with unrealirc and neostats
[10:37] <AdemoS> *siiiiigh*
[10:37] <AdemoS> Okay
[10:37] <AdemoS> so I used alternate
[10:37] <AdemoS> and it seemed to work
[10:37] <AdemoS> I set up username the clock
[10:37] <AdemoS> keyboard
[10:37] <AdemoS> but I got to "de bootstrap"
[10:37] <AdemoS> and now it's telling me files are corupt
[10:37] <GCReady> ubotu, ati > me
[10:37] <AdemoS> I don't get it
[10:38] <AdemoS> because I burned at 8x
[10:38] <AdemoS> and it works on other computers so far
[10:38] <zePh7r> MrObvious, Nothing I'm aware of, in top the most cpu consuming program is consuming 2%
[10:38] <neverblue> AdemoS, you can check your CD before you install
[10:38] <AdemoS> alright, I'll let that run completely
[10:38] <MrObvious> zePh7r: Okay that was my idea then.
[10:38] <neverblue> AdemoS, try and keep your posts to a line, if possible
[10:38] <zePh7r> MrObvious, 2 % is excessive?
[10:38] <speaker219> Omg
[10:38] <speaker219> 2%!!!?!? WTF
[10:38] <MrObvious> zePh7r: Nope.
[10:39] <zePh7r> I tryed to install ati drivers in ubuntu feisty and now my touchpad is choppy. any hints? I had previously configured my xorg.conf to load synaptics drivers and everything was working fine
[10:39] <chuckp902> can someone host a file on ftp for me so I can download it
[10:39] <MrObvious> chuckp902: What kind of file?
[10:39] <BrowneR> chuckp902: what file are you after?
[10:39] <neverblue> chuckp902, can you download from lots of sites, all over the internet
[10:39] <zePh7r> MrObvious, is there any other less crowded ubuntu related channel?
[10:40] <neverblue> zePh7r, ubuntu-offtopic
[10:40] <dyrne> Fub: you could try opeing and terminal and typing 'xhost +' but i dont know with that xlib error and im not sure why youd need to do that if youre launching as user with sudo
[10:40] <NativeAngels> is there a room for unrealirc here
[10:41] <Sk> Hey i need help
[10:41] <BrowneR> Sk: whats up?
[10:41] <Sk> Is thair a flash altermnative for linux
[10:41] <dyrne> Sk: adobe makes a flash9 plugin for linux
[10:41] <BrowneR> Sk: there are also some opensource alternatives
[10:41] <Sk> i whanr 2 creat a website were i can stream videos from a server how can i do that in linux?
[10:42] <MrObvious> NativeAngels: I think #unreal or #unrealirc
[10:42] <dyrne> im assuming you meant like a client alternative
[10:42] <Morrowyn> there should be some gnu flash thingy around
[10:42] <AdemoS> okay
[10:42] <AdemoS> I failed the cd check
[10:42] <Sk> I mean a flash development Tool for linux
[10:42] <Sk> So i can build my video streaming site
[10:42] <AdemoS> could it be because I'm using a multi-part downloader?
[10:42] <AdemoS> that spilts the file and then joins it?
[10:43] <BrowneR> Sk: not as easy as it sounds are you sure you have the bandwidth to start with :p
[10:43] <neverblue> Sk, u could look at wine, to port the current 'application' your using for Flash, into Linux
[10:43] <dyrne> Sk: im fond of www.theora.org/ but i dunno if its appropriate here
[10:43] <Fub> dyrne, didn't work, I'll try restart X later, probably something hogging some resource somewhere
[10:43] <NativeAngels> theres no rooms on here by that name
[10:44] <kornet>  i am trying to get neverwinternights to work. i am stuck at the glx install, witch one do i need for feisty? glx, legacy or new??? my card is mx4000-v64
[10:44] <neverblue> AdemoS, try and post one liners, you will have to reburn the CD, but before that, you can confirm the image is correct, using the md5
[10:44] <Morrowyn> http://f4l.sourceforge.net/  dunno if its any good though
[10:44] <BrowneR> kornet: i would be tempted to try glx. if it doesnt work then just start again and choose legacy
[10:44] <mheath> Sk: There are Linux tools for Flash, however most Flash video sites (YouTube, Google Video, etc) use a much newer extension to flash that is purely for srtreaming video
[10:44] <Commando125> Do any of you know how to work network card drivers?
[10:44] <Morrowyn> or use flash with wine?
[10:44] <stewlatin> Can someone help me with networking I've tried everythingI know
[10:44] <AdemoS> [16:44]  <neverblue> AdemoS, try and post one liners, you will have to reburn the CD, but before that, you can confirm the image is correct, using the md5 <--- How can I check md5? I tired to get Nero's MD5 checker, but the link was dead on their official site
[10:45] <AdemoS> any other MD5 freeware checkers?
[10:45] <neverblue> AdemoS, try googling some
[10:45] <AdemoS> okay
[10:45] <jimm> hey
[10:45] <neverblue> AdemoS, this is not a windows channel
[10:45] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> or some divx streaming s/warez
[10:45] <neverblue> AdemoS, we already get everythng 'freeware' :)
[10:45] <kornet> BrowneR: i tried all 3, no dice xtems dos not start and i gave to backup
[10:45] <Morrowyn> AdemoS man m5sum  ?
[10:45] <jimm> is there anyone that could help me for installing ubuntu
[10:45] <Sk> Brownre: The videos won't be that big right now
[10:45] <Morrowyn> md5sum^
[10:45] <MARIUSmarius> is it possible to install easyphp on ubuntu?
[10:45] <neverblue> Morrowyn, he is still in windows-land
[10:45] <Fub> jimm, what is the problem?
[10:46] <Ben_Cs> i want to install pidgin on Feisty, but GAIM is already installed , so when i install pidgin, no change is made. i thought about removing game but synaptic wants to remove ubuntu-desktop aswell. and that i don't want to do. so....... how do i install pidgin?
[10:46] <jimm> ok, is it possible to install ubuntu into its own partition on a slave drive
[10:46] <Commando125> I have a realtek 8139too integrated, and its not working with the ubuntu network configuration.  I tried using automatic configuration, static ip, and checking the cable (which does work), I need to know where I can find ubuntu supported drivers for my device.
[10:46] <mheath> Sk: As far as I know, no Linux tools support development with that. However, if you were to develop a flash video player in Windows or other environment, you could probably specify a different video file for it to play by the way it's embedded in the website.
[10:46] <BrowneR> kornet: hmm i'm not sure, i have no experience with neverwinternights i'm afraid.
[10:46] <mheath> That is, the video does not necessarily have to be embeeded in the flash player.
[10:46] <neverblue> jimm, is it the primary?
[10:46] <Morrowyn> oh, didnt he take the wrong exit i think #windows is an exit further down the road...
[10:46] <Morrowyn> nwm on linux rocks :D
[10:47] <MARIUSmarius> is it possible to install easyphp on ubuntu?
[10:47] <eddlandos> hello
[10:47] <mheath> neverblue: I don't think that asking for help related to burning Ubuntu to a CD and installing it is inappropriate, even if the user is asking questions about how to do that from Windows. The Ubuntu community Wiki already has lots of documentation on the subject.
[10:47] <jimm> ok, is it possible to install ubuntu into its own partition on a slave drive
[10:47] <eddlandos> does anyone know much about the radeon x800 pro being supported by ubuntu ?
[10:47] <lns> jimm, yes
[10:47] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> jimm yes
[10:47] <kornet> Morrowyn: thats what they say if i can get to install....how did you do that?
[10:48] <AdemoS> Where can I find the md5 for Ubuntu 7.04?
[10:48] <AdemoS> desktop edition
[10:48] <neverblue> mheath, huh?
[10:48] <Morrowyn> kornet, i cheated, i just copied over my windows install and downloaded the linux native client
[10:48] <jimm> ok, my slave drive is like 36gb and i want linux to have like a 10 gb partition and theres a bout 12 gigs free
[10:48] <Morrowyn> that should work
[10:48] <neverblue> mheath, did I do something to offend you?
[10:49] <MrObvious> jimm: Linux can resize partitions upon installing. It's really easy.
[10:49] <jimm> exept how do i do that in the installer?
[10:49] <stewlatin> I'm trying to access network share from a vista laptop can anyone help me?
[10:49] <mheath> neverblue: He was asking about how to do an integrity check on a Ubuntu ISO file, so he could burn it to CD-ROM. You told him that he shouldn't ask that here because "this is not a windows channel."
[10:49] <benji_> hey how can i change file associations?
[10:49] <Commando125> I have a realtek 8139 integrated, and its not working with the ubuntu network configuration.  I tried using automatic configuration, static ip, and checking the cable (which does work), I need to know where I can find ubuntu supported drivers for my device?  I cant find an ubuntu version on the site anywhere.
[10:49] <rapid> howto install my current kernel headers?
[10:49] <stewlatin> I'm trying to access network share from a vista laptop can anyone help me?
[10:49] <benji_> hey how can i change file associations?
[10:49] <MrObvious> jimm: You choose your slave HD, then you can do it guided from there and make sure it does it right from what it gives you.
[10:49] <kornet> Morrowyn: impossible i spent two years to get rid of windows, don't want to install it again, evr
[10:49] <neverblue> mheath, I beleive you missed a part of that discussion, maybe you should concentrate on helping others
[10:49] <Kamic> Help Requested, anyone good with ssl?
[10:50] <Morrowyn> kornet, try throuh wine, to get the thing installed
[10:50] <mheath> AdemoS, The MD5 files are in the same directory as the .ISOs on the mirrors. Theres lots of instructions on how to do an integrity check on a CD at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/CDIntegrityCheck

[10:50] <AdemoS> [16:50]  <mheath> AdemoS, The MD5 files are in the same directory as the .ISOs on the mirrors. <-- aha okay thanks
[10:50] <rapid> howto install my current kernel headers? ???
[10:51] <Kamic> Is anyone available to help me with my personal webserver's ssl, i think i did everything right, but https:// doesnt seem to work
[10:51] <MrObvious> rapid: What for?
[10:51] <MrObvious> ompaul: Bye.
[10:51] <mheath> AdemoS, That URL I pasted tells you how to check integrity from the Ubuntu CD itself. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[10:51] <rapid> MrObvious, so i can compile crap
[10:51] <kornet> Morrowyn: if nothing else helps then yes, i just get this wierd feeling wine is windows some kind
[10:51] <jimm> well what i see right now is, (.) guided- use entire disk (.)ide1 master hda 41g  () ide1 slave hdb 41.0 gb () guided use the largest continuous free space () manual
[10:51] <MrObvious> rapid: sudo apt-get install linux-headers(...kernel version)
[10:51] <mheath> AdemoS, that URL discusses how to check it from various other operating systems

[10:51] <stewlatin> I'm trying to access my ubuntu share from a vista computer and it asks for a password
[10:52] <eddlandos> anyone know if my radeon card is supported by ubuntu ?
[10:52] <neverblue> stewlatin, did you setup Samba?
[10:52] <jimm> well what i see right now is, (.) guided- use entire disk (.)ide1 master hda 41g  () ide1 slave hdb 41.0 gb () guided use the largest continuous free space () manual    where do i go from here to make a partition?
[10:52] <neverblue> eddlandos, lspci | grep ati
[10:52] <stewlatin> I installed it and setup shares
[10:52] <Morrowyn> sudo apt-get install linux-header`uname -a` or something like that, the uname feeds you the proper version
[10:52] <BrowneR> stewlatin: smb.conf - share based authentication
[10:52] <BrowneR> stewlatin: read the man page
[10:52] <rapid> uname -r
[10:52] <AdemoS> [16:51]  <mheath> AdemoS, That URL I pasted tells you how to check integrity from the Ubuntu CD itself. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto <--- ah alright thanks
[10:52] <rapid> r being release
[10:52] <benji_> sorrty
[10:52] <AdemoS> I ended up just using the directory from my mirror, so thanks for htat
[10:52] <benji_> how can i change file associations?
[10:52] <neverblue> stewlatin, did you setup the shares to have password access?
[10:53] <ryness> how do i find out what port(s) smb is running on?
[10:53] <MrObvious> rapid: Usually there are sufficient debs though that you don't really need to compile just FYI. But I don't know which package you are compiling and there may be no alternative.
[10:53] <jimm> well what i see right now is, (.) guided- use entire disk (.)ide1 master hda 41g  () ide1 slave hdb 41.0 gb () guided use the largest continuous free space () manual    where do i go from here to make a partition?
[10:53] <stewlatin> Where is smb.conf?
[10:53] <BrowneR> ryness: it runs on the standard smb ports
[10:53] <AdemoS> >___< Okay, so the md5.........is fine
[10:53] <Studio_54> nAbend
[10:53] <kornet> Morrowyn: how long did it take you to finish the game and did you also play the expansions ?
[10:53] <AdemoS> But that same image, burned at 8x, gets the error I mentioned before
[10:53] <Muelli> stewlatin: you can find out with the "find" command. find /etc/ -name 'smb.conf' :)
[10:53] <MrObvious> jimm: Do the slave.
[10:53] <neverblue> benji_, right click on a file with the extension, and choose the program, or look at 'preferred applications'
[10:53] <BrowneR> stewlatin: /etc/samba
[10:53] <MrObvious> jimm: What's next?
[10:54] <benji_> where is preferred applications?
[10:54] <jimm> wait, what do u mean by do the slave
[10:54] <moni> hi
[10:54] <neverblue> benji_, look in your menus, its in there
[10:54] <MrObvious> jimm: IDE1 slave
[10:54] <ryness> BrowneR: but how do i doublecheck inside the OS?
[10:54] <moni> how can I learn how to make ubuntu packages?
[10:54] <AdemoS> thiss erorr sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[10:54] <jimm> i know, but that says use the entire disk
[10:54] <neverblue> benji_, right clicking the file is an option as well
[10:54] <MrObvious> benji_: It might be available from right clicking the file in your FM.
[10:54] <benji_> ok thx
[10:54] <AdemoS> and I can't run a disc check either, but md5 is sucessful...X_X
[10:54] <MrObvious> jimm: Okay go back to manual.
[10:54] <jimm> ok
[10:55] <AdemoS> I'll try MD5 on the alt iso
[10:55] <neverblue> moni, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[10:55] <jimm> ok
[10:55] <MrObvious> ompaul: Flooder!
[10:55] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> jimm use the entire disak you can get a driver/util for windows to read/write to linux partitiions
[10:55] <ompaul> MrObvious, how obvious was that :)
[10:55] <jimm> i see my master hd, and my slave
[10:56] <MrObvious> ompaul: Not that obvious.
[10:56] <BrowneR> ryness: i'm not sure you can even change the ports it uses, it wouldnt make any sense otherwise. it should be 137-139 and 445
[10:56] <MrObvious> jimm: Choose your slave.
[10:56] <ompaul> MrObvious, I can't leave them banned forever
[10:56] <Kamic> hello, I am requesting some help, I'm using the command only, Ubuntu 7.04 server. trying to do SSL. , I believe I did everything correct, but https on my website doesnt work.
[10:56] <jimm> ok
[10:56] <AdemoS> okay, my Alternate download failed the test
[10:56] <AdemoS> at least that makes sense
[10:56] <moni> neverblue, that seems very basic info
[10:56] <neverblue> moni, its in there
[10:56] <jimm> if i say use the intire disk on my slave will it erase all my other data?
[10:57] <d4rkmonkey> jimm, it will erase all data on that diskl
[10:57] <d4rkmonkey> *disk
[10:57] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> Kamic does your server have firewall enabled? maybe you need to open up some port..
[10:57] <moni> neverblue, I read it but I have to prepare a package for my software etc
[10:57] <MrObvious> jimm: On the slave, I think. I have to look at the install screen to know for sure.
[10:57] <neverblue> moni your releasing your own software?
[10:57] <neverblue> moni, to the community?
[10:57] <jimm> im just using the cd live OS then i double clicked install
[10:57] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> jimm yes it will delete your whole drive
[10:58] <moni> neverblue, at the beginning I want to see if it works :)
[10:58] <jimm> then i chose the lang then the keyboard
[10:58] <MrObvious> jimm: Right.
[10:58] <MrObvious> jimm: Did you choose the manual partitioning option?
[10:58] <neverblue> moni, you really arent being clear, that link is all I can provide for you
[10:58] <jimm> yes i did
[10:58] <moni> neverblue, does it make any difference?
[10:58] <wckdkl0wn> i get error 17 when trying to boot ubuntu.. its been working fine for the past 2 months.. all of a sudden the system locks up now i get error 17
[10:58] <MrObvious> jimm: Okay then choose your slave and see what it says next.
[10:58] <stewlatin> I got it working thank you!
[10:58] <vsbuffalo> is there a way to report progress on copying a single big file using cp in the cli
[10:58] <jimm> ok
[10:58] <neverblue> moni, as I said, very unclear, sorry
[10:59] <moni> neverblue, the question seems very simple to me, how to learn how to make .deb packages
[10:59] <jimm> No root file system is defined
[10:59] <moni> what is wrong in this question, I do not know
[10:59] <MrObvious> jimm: BRB.
[10:59] <jimm> k
[10:59] <neverblue> moni, its discussed in that link, try googling if you seek more info
[10:59] <moni> neverblue, I have read the relevant sectionin that link
[10:59] <moni> I said it is *very* basic
[10:59] <neverblue> moni, I can help you no longer
[11:00] <Kamic> ftoo_on_gutsy_ , i have firewall disabled
[11:00] <moni> ok but why you asked me if I am going to release my software to the community?
[11:00] <AdemoS> re-downloading the main ISO to avoid corruption
[11:00] <AdemoS> will return when it's done
[11:00] <Kamic> i can get to port 80
[11:00] <speaker219> does anybody know how to not make the names on the taskbar items to fade
[11:00] <neverblue> salah, please do not pm others, with atleast asking first
[11:01] <bastid_raZor> any conky-heads around here?
[11:01] <anonamalk> two questions right now. 1 - items showing on the taskbar are taking up the entire thing. Even if I have one item it takes the entire thing. How do I change this to minimize the space the items use? 2 - my file browser and most everything else uses HUGE icons at the top for "back, up, etc", how do I minimize the size of these?Working on a laptop and workspace is a prime requirement of mine
[11:01] <fatsheep> hey I've got a network problem: the light on the NIC on the computer won't even light up...  Windows connects fine though
[11:01] <salah> neverblue, ok...
[11:01] <Kamic> http://www.tervoo.com works, https://www.tervoo.com doesnt not work
[11:01] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> Kamic is port enabled in /etc/apache2?/ ports.conf
[11:01] <Kamic> yes

[11:03] <nfoonf> hi
[11:03] <bulmer> anyone ever used a Dell PowerConnect 3324 24 Port Switch?  can you kindly discuss with me how to get a DHCP working on this switch?
[11:03] <Kamic> ftoo, in /etc/apache2/ports.conf i added "Listen 443"
[11:04] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> kamic yups...
[11:04] <Kamic> only two things there
[11:04] <Kamic> are listen 80, listen 443
[11:04] <anonamalk> anyone able to help regarding the question above?Just getting started on setting this thing up
[11:04] <BrowneR> bulmer: if its a switch it wont have dhcpo
[11:04] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> did u restart apache ?
[11:04] <Kamic> rebooted pc
[11:04] <Kamic> just to make sure
[11:04] <Kamic> http://www.tervoo.com
[11:04] <Kamic> works
[11:04] <bulmer> BrowneR: switches do not have embedded dchp servers on them?
[11:05] <Kamic> do i need to do anything on dns or nameserver?
[11:05] <Kamic> for https to work
[11:05] <BrowneR> bulmer: not usually no. they just relay and route packets. nothing more i'm afraid
[11:05] <nfoonf> anyone able to help with widescreen monitors and nvidia drivers?
[11:05] <Kamic> i'm trying to get ssl traffic to http://www.tervoo.com/www-ssl/index.htm
[11:05] <BrowneR> bulmer: either configure static IP's, setup a PC as a DHCP server or buy a standalone DHCP server.
[11:06] <Kamic> http://www.tervoo.com/www-ssl/index.htm should be https://www.tervoo.com
[11:06] <wckdkl0wn> i get error 17 when trying to boot ubuntu.. its been working fine for the past 2 months.. all of a sudden the system locks up now i get error 17
[11:06] <wckdkl0wn> right now i am on the live cs
[11:06] <cox377> can anyone tell me what this command is doing "sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter wl_apsta.o -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r`"?
[11:06] <wckdkl0wn> cd*
[11:06] <bulmer> BrowneR: thanks, if I have an ubuntu to act as DHCP server, i can put it on that switch and use it to distribute the ip to the clients right?
[11:07] <BrowneR> bulmer: sure
[11:07] <BrowneR> bulmer: just install the dhcp server package and configure it
[11:07] <BRUUUCE> need help with proftpd, is anyone available?
[11:07] <Kamic> sure bruuuce
[11:07] <BRUUUCE> let me use paste bin
[11:07] <bulmer> BrowneR: would there be a particular port on a switch where I plug in my ubuntu dhcp server so it can distro it correctly? its been a long time since i had toyed with switches
[11:08] <Kamic> bruuuce, you got instant messenger?
[11:08] <BRUUUCE> yes
[11:08] <Kamic> which
[11:08] <BRUUUCE> aim or msn
[11:08] <Kamic> lordkamic = aim
[11:08] <RickH> How can I search all .txt files in the current directory for any files containing the word "Sunday"?
[11:08] <BrowneR> bulmer: any port will do. every port is connected to every other port through the switch so it wont matter :)
[11:08] <KarL0s> when i put my laptop tp sleep or when i close the lid after i open the lid again nothing happens the screen keps black and i have to turn it off with the power button any idea'
[11:08] <Instabin> #ubuntu-kernel
[11:08] <Kamic> ftoo, any other ideas on ssl?
[11:09] <BrowneR> bulmer: "dhcp3-server" is the package you need to install
[11:09] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> Kamic 1 sec i'll try to get u on messenger
[11:09] <bulmer> BrowneR: thanks..now my task is to re-learn configuring switches..specifically this dell 24 port powerconnet 3324
[11:09] <Kamic> thanks bud

[11:09] <bulmer> BrowneR: thanks for the quick insights
[11:09] <jimm> ok is there anyone here that can walk me through installing ubuntu into its own partition on a slave drive?
[11:10] <RickH> jimm:  What's to do?
[11:10] <RickH> How can I search all .txt files in the current directory for any files containing the word "Sunday"?
[11:10] <jimm> ok
[11:10] <jimm> u can help me rick?
[11:10] <RickH> jimm:  I don't understand what the problem is.
[11:10] <RickH> jimm:  It installs just like normal.
[11:11] <jimm> but i need to get it into its own partition
[11:11] <RickH> jimm:  You just specify that partition when you're installing.  You'll have to choose "custom" for the install option.
[11:11] <MattJ> jimm: You can manage partitions during the installation
[11:11] <RickH> jimm:  Do you already have the new partition?
[11:11] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> Kamic do u have only aim ? or msn also ?
[11:11] <Kamic> i have them all
[11:11] <Kamic> msn: kamic@new.rr.com
[11:12] <jimm> but im installing from the cd live and it has no custom option
[11:12] <RickH> jimm:  Sure it does.
[11:12] <bluefox83> when is gusty slated for release?

[11:13] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:13] <RickH> jimm:  Page 4 and 5
[11:13] <RickH> How can I search all .txt files in the current directory for any files containing the word "Sunday"?
[11:13] <BrowneR> bluefox83: just in time for my birthday :p lol
[11:13] <Ste-Foy> bye bye mon cowboy (Mitchou)
[11:13] <BrowneR> RickH: man grep

[11:13] <bluefox83> BrowneR, and my parent's anniversary, and samhain :D
[11:14] <kevinh90> whats the next ubuntu going to be called after gutsy gibbon?
[11:14] <RickH> BrowneR:  grep works with files?
[11:14] <MrObvious> RickH: find | grep Sunday
[11:14] <MrObvious> That should return something.
[11:14] <DeepThoughts> I would I go about and make my MySQL server availible for my internal network? I'd like it to use the hostname that identifies the server on my LAN
[11:14] <narothepharoh> i cant seem to get firefox to work does anyone know whats up?
[11:14] <`Matir> RickH, grep is designed solely to work on files
[11:14] <anonamalk> can someone help me with changing the HUGE icons on the menu bar of the file browser?
[11:14] <`Matir> narothepharoh, what happens?
[11:14] <BrowneR> RickH: sure "grep Sunday *.txt"
[11:14] <ftoo_on_gutsy_> Kamic msn were r u :)
[11:15] <tracer903> I have ubuntu 7.04 and it is not detecting my cd-r drive or digital camera
[11:15] <Kamic> i see your msgs
[11:15] <narothepharoh> matir - it comes up in the menu bar then it just goes away
[11:15] <Kamic> your not seeing mine
[11:15] <Kamic> heh
[11:15] <RickH> `Matir:  I've only used grep in the context "whatever | grep something", but I figured the piped output was not a real file, but only logical stdout.
[11:15] <BrowneR> bluefox83: :D
[11:15] <ompaul> Kamic, we are
[11:15] <Kamic> ompaul, on msn sorry, hehe
[11:15] <Kamic> [16:16:11]  Kamic: can you see my messages?
[11:15] <Kamic> [16:16:15]  foxytheoldone@hotmail.com: are u getting any error messages in your apache log's re: ssl
[11:16] <varustah> any luck with onscreen keyboard at login screen?
[11:16] <GarethAdams> I've just installed my first Ubuntu. I noticed that when I set it up it asked me for a hostname and said it's similar to a Windows computer name. However, I can type http://mywindowscomputername and it connects properly - my Ubuntu doesn't do that though
[11:16] <`Matir> narothepharoh, try launching it from a console to see if you get error messages
[11:16] <MrObvious> tracer903: I'm not sure I know enough to diagnose your digicam, but I can probably help you with your CD-R.
[11:16] <`Matir> GarethAdams, is it listed in /etc/hosts?
[11:17] <MrObvious> tracer903: Is your CD-R drive IDE or SATA or USB?
[11:17] <tracer903> MrObvious: ok, thanks, my cd-rom is a memorex 52x
[11:17] <narothepharoh> 'Matir-can you explain how to launch this way please
[11:17] <GarethAdams> `Matir: I mean I can use my windows computer name to access it from any other computer on the network, my ubuntu hostname doesn't work the same way?

[11:18] <ChrisH> Guys, I'm trying to connect to an unencrypted network using a Trendnet TEW-221PC wireless card on a Sotec laptop. I'm using Ubuntu 7.04. I installed the driver using ndiswrapper and now a wireless connection shows up in Network settings. However, I can't get it to connect to the network (the network info is correct). Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
[11:18] <sfrooz> hello all, i have installed ubuntu 7.04 on Acer Aspire 5630. There is someone that have used the integrated webcam succesfully?
[11:18] <MrObvious> tracer903: Okay. Do you know which channel it's in?
[11:18] <Fooller> Is there any easy way to make image out of my kubuntu and burn it to disc(s)?
[11:18] <MrObvious> tracer903: Choose Primary Master, Primary Slave, Secondary Master, or Secondary Slave.
[11:18] <ompaul> GarethAdams, ehh no that is samba that windows uses, you are using tcp/ip, so that is like thinking of different languages, you can connect to it via ssh (using a windows app called putty) or you can use samba I will have the channel bot tell you about that
[11:18] <tracer903> IDE1 is 2 hard drives, they are both fine, and IDE2 is CD-r only
[11:19] <MattJ> sfrooz: Is that the one known as the "Orbicam"?
[11:19] <MrObvious> tracer903: Okay is it on the end of the IDE cable or in the middle?
[11:19] <sfrooz> yes it is orbicam
[11:19] <david003> hello. can someone tell me how i can change the icon of the main menu?
[11:19] <`Matir> GarethAdams, not without it being registered in a DNS server
[11:19] <tracer903> It worked fine with dapper, then I installed fiesty and now it doesn't work
[11:19] <GarethAdams> ompaul: to confirm: I need samba to make http://myubuntuhostname/ connect to my apache on the ubuntu machine?
[11:19] <MattJ> sfrooz: Ok, I managed to get mine working, just a second while I find you the info
[11:20] <tracer903> I'll have to open my case to check, I think it's at the end of the cable. hold on, I'll get a screw driver
[11:20] <GarethAdams> `Matir: ok, so what do I have to do to make it do that like Windows does? (Sorry to bring out "do that like Windows does" so early on ;)

[11:20] <ompaul> GarethAdams, no that is TCP/IP so you want to give it the url and do some DNS stuff
[11:20] <narothepharoh> You should really not run firefox through sudo WITHOUT the -H option.

[11:26] <narothepharoh> no
[11:26] <MrObvious> tracer903: Sounds like it's working then.
[11:26] <maxxism> GarethAdams if so then you need to use samba.
[11:27] <neverblue> narothepharoh, click a link in ....
[11:27] <narothepharoh> nothing matir
[11:27] <`Matir> narothepharoh, any other apps have problems?
[11:27] <GarethAdams> maxxism: I'm only thinking that if my mac and my windows can play together nicely and register their names on my network's DNS then my ubuntu should be able to do the same, right?

[11:27] <ompaul> GarethAdams,   https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/dns.html
[11:27] <tracer903> Yea, now I see it, so do i have to manually mount it everytime?
[11:27] <maxxism> GarethAdams ubuntu can.
[11:27] <narothepharoh> 'Matir- not that i have noticed only internet
[11:27] <yrlnry> that printer model wasn't in the list in the sysadmin dialog, so I set it to "LaserJet 9000 MFP" and set the Driver to "Postscript".

[11:28] <maxxism> GarethAdams read about samba.
[11:28] <tracer903> ok, thanks
[11:28] <yrlnry> I guess that the printer software, which is CUPS, uses a2ps or something to convert the plain text to postscript before sending it to the printer.  How can I control that better?
[11:28] <maxxism> GarethAdams its the equivalant of windows file and printer sharing.
[11:28] <ompaul> GarethAdams, you can cheat with what is called a hosts file, and I am really glad to say I know nothing about it on macs or windows ;-)  -- all I know is that it can be done
[11:28] <Fieldy> blue|palm: you will probably have better luck asking in #openoffice.org
[11:28] <`Matir> narothepharoh, tried opera?
[11:28] <scguy318> yrlnry u use hp-setup?
[11:28] <MrObvious> tracer903: YW. Maybe someone might have an idea.

[11:29] <anonamalk> how do you make "windows style" behavior for your taskbar?As in not have a single running app take up the entire thing? Just a minor quirk I know

[11:31] <maxxism> koan did you check to see if you have the proper codec?
[11:31] <MrObvious> Grungebunny: Here are a few terminal commands you'll need: sudo mv /media/(pathtootherOS) /home/(username)
[11:31] <koan> how do i check
[11:32] <MrObvious> Grungebunny: I guess that's about it.

[11:33] <koan> i did install mplayer codec and gxine codec
[11:33] <maxxism> koan which codec is the video you are trying to watch?  usually says in the filename.

[11:35] <bur[n] er> my dell kicks ass!!!  I bought the e520n desktop.  The very first models they were making.  It's amazing!  Looking back, I should have opted for Nvidia, but Intel works with compiz just great, but 3d games lack a little
[11:35] <pvl> for compiling are there specific files one should get?
[11:35] <koan> do i need to install any other codecs with it ?
[11:35] <MC2TS> it quit whilw instaling files at about 47%
[11:35] <mattgyver83> no koan
[11:35] <yrlnry> scguy318: I don't seem to have any hp-setu pon my machine and I don't see it listed in synaptics package manager.
[11:35] <M3G4crux> I bought Dell Precision M90 it didnt come with ubuntu but I installed it
[11:35] <maxxism> koan most likely no.
[11:35] <bur[n] er> Mathman_, get one :)
[11:36] <narothepharoh> Matir are you still here?
[11:36] <scguy318> yrlnry
[11:36] <scguy318> run hp-setup
[11:36] <scguy318> at the command line
[11:36] <peeps_work> can Beryl manager write out key commands when I press a key?  I try to type out the key combination, but it clears it every time.
[11:36] <scguy318> *gksudo hp-setup tbh
[11:36] <peeps_work> i have no idea what the exact syntax it expects is
[11:36] <maxxism> koan i just did a standard codec install from the ubuntuguide.com and VLC plays just about everything for me.
[11:36] <Blah> dell doesn't give you good support if you buy there pc with ubuntu '
[11:36] <yrlnry> scguy: bash: hp-setup: command not found
[11:36] <mattgyver83> MC2TS; have you at least partitioned the drives?
[11:36] <Mathman_> bur[n] er: you have one?
[11:36] <koan> thanks
[11:36] <chris_2> How do I force close a program ?
[11:36] <scguy318> yrlnry you have the HPLIB stuff installed?
[11:36] <bur[n] er> Mathman_,  my dell kicks ass!!!  I bought the e520n desktop.  The very first models they were making.  It's amazing!  Looking back, I should have opted for Nvidia, but Intel works with compiz just great, but 3d games lack a little

[11:36] <koan> Thanks for the all the help maxxism
[11:36] <maxxism> koan np
[11:37] <jasonbuntu> my other comp just died.   i think it was the fact that a cable fell down into my CPU cooler and stopped the fan.  i have ASUS COP, or whatever the thermal protection stuff is called, but when i reboot i dont even see (or hear) my bios...  the monitor gets no signal...  i know its not a ubuntu issue, but any help will be appreciated...  i tried clearing the CMOS and still no go...
[11:37] <mattgyver83> chris_2, xkill via command line, then just click the app
[11:37] <bur[n] er> peeps_work, that one is special and requires a little fanagling to work
[11:37] <yrlnry> scguy318: I don't think so.  Where can I get the HPLIB stuff?
[11:37] <MC2TS> yes i did that 1st   and it works fine booted from the cd
[11:37] <chris_2> xkill via command line ?
[11:37] <jasonbuntu> the cpu looks fine, i took off the cooler and looked at it... im guessing AMD COP didnt save the motherboard...
[11:37] <chris_2> mattgyver83: Im a bit of a noob
[11:37] <proc355> just switched from debian and i'm desperately seeking the "clean" pixel font that is installed by default on etch - anyone have any idea where i can get it for feisty?
[11:37] <mattgyver83> here do this
[11:38] <narothepharoh> anyone know whats up? I cant open any web browsers
[11:38] <chris_2> ok...
[11:38] <pace_t_zulu> hey guys, so i have both ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop installed, how do i make the ubuntu usplash show up rather than the kubuntu one
[11:38] <mattgyver83> right click your panel, click add to panel
[11:38] <exhausted> when i run glxgears the gears are very glitch and resizing causes my X session to crash, i am in feisty using gnome with xgl, any ideas
[11:38] <bur[n] er> chris_2, alt+f2, type 'xkill' <enter> then click the application you want to forcefully close
[11:38] <Mathman_> Blah: what makes you  say that?  I mean, I'm assuming they don't support the software all that well.  but aside from that what's the problem?
[11:38] <pvl> pace make the ubuntu load up first through bios
[11:38] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: What happens when you try?
[11:38] <bur[n] er> narothepharoh, run the command from a term?  give any output?  tried firefox, epiphany, konqueror?
[11:38] <mattgyver83> scroll down to the Desktop and windows select force quit.  It will put the launcher on your task bar
[11:38] <narothepharoh> i can chat here i can update and im but no browser
[11:38] <scguy318> yrlnry: should be in repo, i guess hplip package
[11:38] <maxxism> proc355 whats so good about this font?
[11:39] <pace_t_zulu> pvl, where in the bios is this setting?
[11:39] <yrlnry> scguy318: I just searched for it there and saw nothing like that.
[11:39] <Blah> well when I got the laptop with ubuntu it didn't have the right drivers for video card
[11:39] <narothepharoh> I have tried all it comes up in the menu bar then dissappears
[11:39] <yrlnry> I do have SPM configured to use multiverse.
[11:39] <Blah> and they want a lot more money for support
[11:39] <chris_2> [ burner ] : and if that doesnt work ?
[11:39] <narothepharoh> command shows no errors
[11:39] <brambi> holy shit
[11:39] <brambi> 1148 people
[11:39] <scguy318> sudo apt-get install hplip?
[11:39] <brambi> damn
[11:39] <pvl> pace you should be able to choose what disk or partition to load first, so then just make the ubuntu swap load first
[11:39] <proc355> maxxism: ive gotten used to it as my text editor font & general sys font
[11:39] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: Try running mozilla-firefox or firefox (I forget which it is) from a terminal. Does it give an error?
[11:39] <m0le> ppl, do u know where can i look for drivers for ati cards?
[11:40] <scguy318> if your printer is supported by HPLIP then doing hp-setup is preferable ;)
[11:40] <Blah> I think that's mostly why they went with ubuntu for what they can get for support
[11:40] <scguy318> for installing
[11:40] <maxxism> proc355 is it nice?
[11:40] <scguy318> a printer
[11:40] <chris_2> bur[n] er:: and if that doesnt work ?
[11:40] <pvl> pace you i also think u should look into something called mbr. imnot sure if thats windows only but thats essentially the samething
[11:40] <narothepharoh> MrObvious- it shows no error
[11:40] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: Is there a firefox running?
[11:40] <debian_> when installing ubuntu (using alt. disc) on a macbook pro, does anyone know if grub prompts to be installed to the mbr (non-existant), or what
[11:40] <M3G4crux> any idea where can I get flashplayer-nonfree version 7
[11:40] <chris_2> if the xkill command doesnt work what do I Do
[11:40] <chris_2> ?
[11:40] <proc355> maxxism: it's spot on for my laptop :)
[11:41] <M3G4crux> chris_2 which applications is bugging you?
[11:41] <narothepharoh> narothepharoh@narothepharoh-desktop:~$ mozilla-firefox
[11:41] <narothepharoh> narothepharoh@narothepharoh-desktop:~$
[11:41] <pace_t_zulu> pvl, i think you misunderstand
[11:41] <m0le> ppl, do u know where can i look for drivers for ati cards?
[11:41] <maxxism> proc355 I wonder if a debian channel might be a better place to ask...
[11:41] <pace_t_zulu> i am just talking about the splash screen
[11:41] <M3G4crux> ati homepage
[11:41] <M3G4crux> chris_2 you can get the apps name with xinfo
[11:41] <m0le> some place that REALLY workds?
[11:41] <narothepharoh> i cant see it anywhere mrobvious
[11:41] <m0le> works*
[11:41] <pvl> pace_t_zulu well you prefer to load ubuntu rather then kubuntu, right?
[11:41] <proc355> maxxism: i am :) altho im a bit scared to mention ubuntu
[11:41] <neverblue> m0le, ati.com?
[11:42] <Romes> LOL UBUNTU SUX AMIRITE?
[11:42] <M3G4crux> then execute ps -aus  | grep app-name
[11:42] <chris_2> Its ok guys lol i was clicking on the taskbar
[11:42] <chris_2> xD
[11:42] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: ps aux | grep firefox
[11:42] <chris_2> Thanks guys :P
[11:42] <scguy318> i thought the Firefox binary was firefox-bin?
[11:42] <pace_t_zulu> pvl, i'm already booting into gdm not kdm
[11:42] <m0le> Romes. nope, i mean there are but its not 1oo% functionally
[11:42] <maxxism> proc355 haha.  dont.  just ask where to find a package of the font????
[11:42] <Romes> MICROSOFT WINDOWS FTW.
[11:42] <pace_t_zulu> i'm simply talking about the splash screen
[11:42] <narothepharoh> run that in terminal? mrobvious?
[11:42] <MrObvious> scguy318: I think the command to launch it is firefox or mozilla-firefox
[11:42] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: Yes.
[11:42] <pvl> pace_t_zulu so what are u trying to do
[11:42] <jimm> ok
[11:42] <scguy318> MrObvious: you're correct
[11:43] <M3G4crux> does anyone have old flashplayer ?
[11:43] <proc355> maxxism: lol yeah, thats the way i phrased it
[11:43] <M3G4crux> version 7=
[11:43] <narothepharoh> narothepharoh@narothepharoh-desktop:~$ ps aux | grep firefox

[11:43] <MrObvious> Drat.

[11:43] <MrObvious> Odd.
[11:43] <jimm> i tried to resise my slave drive but ther is a "lock" icon next to it
[11:43] <Romes> I ALSO ENJOY THE CAPSLOCK BUTTON
[11:43] <mattgyver83> anybody have a problem with wireless connections not reconnecting after shutdown and having to restart the router??
[11:43] <MrObvious> Romes: Stop.
[11:43] <proc355> maxxism: got the iso just no idea what installs it - googling "debian clean" isnt exactly helping
[11:43] <MrObvious> !caps
[11:43] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:43] <Romes> :D
[11:43] <Romes> :D!
[11:44] <christian__> How do I play Pokemon at a gba-emulator? I have wine?
[11:44] <jimm> i tried to resise my slave drive but ther is a "lock" icon next to it, how do i unlock it??
[11:44] <nemik> is anyone else experiencing por signal/performance with ar5212 on a thinkpad t61?
[11:44] <pace_t_zulu> pvl, i want the ubuntu usplash to display rather than the kubuntu usplash artwork during boot
[11:44] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: I really have no clue. Maybe removing ~/.mozilla but that will wipe out all your bookmarks, etc.
[11:44] <Romes> LOUD NOISESSSSSSSSS! (sorry)

[11:45] <narothepharoh> Password:
[11:45] <narothepharoh> You should really not run firefox through sudo WITHOUT the -H option.
[11:45] <narothepharoh> Anyway, I'll do as if you did use the -H option.
[11:45] <jimm> what would that do scguy
[11:45] <Pici> narothepharoh: use gksudo for graphical apps
[11:45] <MrObvious> narothepharoh: Does it run?
[11:45] <scguy318> unmount all partitions that are not busy
[11:45] <pvl> pace_t_zulu i think you should be able to change that through the login in window settings apart from that, im nto sure what else can be done
[11:45] <Seveas> sudo firefox....
[11:45] <MrObvious> ompaul: I was trying to help him. :\
[11:45] <Seveas> how dumb can you get :)

[11:51] <chris_2> guys, i've downloaded a package from the internet, and when i try to install it, it says "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" but I dont have any other software management program open. I've just rebooted :S
[11:51] <scguy318> hum, check your ISO?
[11:51] <scguy318> mebbe its bad
[11:51] <joe74> Hi, I am having big issue: I have a mounted partition as FAT32 on my ubuntu box, I created a virtual machine and mounted it there also over NFS, I succesfully mounted it there, but I need www (apache) to have read-execute permisions, how do I do this?
[11:51] <scguy318> chris_2 i suspect perhaps the lock file is still there but i cant tell you how to resolve
 how can I check my ISO?
[11:52] <MrObvious> alfaro: Play with the mouse options and see if it's there. Otherwise you may have to edit your xorg.conf
[11:52] <scguy318> Ronald-: you can check md5sum or re-d/l
[11:52] <chris_2> scguy318: the installer froze before, so I had to "xkill" it. And when I tried to install it again, I got that message. So I Rebooted and im still getting the message
[11:52] <brambi> this is the error iam getting :http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/262/dsc00063yu5.jpg (translation: mirror server is being checked)
[11:53] <astro76> alfaro, install the gsynaptic package
[11:53] <MrObvious> joe74: That's crazy. Whoa. All I can say is to install apache you can do sudo apt-get install apache
[11:53] <alfaro> but, if i install the gsynaptic, shall i make a back up for the driver i have right now?
[11:54] <astro76> alfaro, no it will just install a preferences app for the touchpad
[11:54] <astro76> alfaro, one line will need to be added to xorg.conf to enable it, also
[11:54] <alfaro> which one?  astro ?
[11:54] <pvl> can anyone help me compile an alsa driver?
[11:55] <ConstyXIV> are there any good GUI calculators with RPN in ubuntu?
[11:55] <fsckr> is there a place in ubuntu to where I can go to change the font system wide other than in preferences and selecting diff fonts for apps, windows, etc?
[11:55] <brambi> this is the error iam getting: http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/262/dsc00063yu5.jpg (translation: mirror server is being checked)
[11:55] <astro76> alfaro, in the InputDevice section for the touchpad, add the line: 	Option		"SHMConfig"		"true"
[11:55] <xelnaga666> im about to ask a kubuntu-to-Kubuntu vncserver question? Am I in the right channel?
[11:55] <ConstyXIV> fsckr: not really.  welcome to gnome :)
[11:55] <ConstyXIV> xelnaga666: you want #kubuntu
[11:56] <xelnaga666> k thanks

[11:57] <chris_2> guys, i've downloaded a package from the internet, and when i try to install it, it says "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" but I dont have any other software management program open. I've just rebooted :S
[11:57] <MrObvious> joe74: Oh okay.
[11:58] <praet> chris_2: what command are you using to install?
[11:58] <brambi> pvl what?
[11:58] <brambi> that when i try to install ubuntu alternative btw..
[11:58] <pvl> brambi i dont think the error message has to do with ur operating system at all
[11:58] <neverblue> chris_2, do you have synaptic open?
[11:58] <chris_2> praet: I downloaded the package, and I am just clicking on install
[11:58] <chris_2> nope
[11:58] <chris_2> nothing
[11:59] <neverblue> chris_2, why are you not installing the package within synaptic?
[11:59] <brambi> pvl ... so what do i have to do?
[11:59] <scguy318> chris_2: sudo dpkg -i does the trick too I think
[11:59] <chris_2> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[11:59] <chris_2> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[11:59] <mattgyver83> is there a way to issue a command at shutdown?
[11:59] <pvl> brambi wait for imageshack to finish doing w/e it may be. they could be updating servers or something like that
[11:59] <padavoine> chris_2: then run dpkg --configure -a
[12:00] <brambi> pvl seriously what?
[12:00] <praet> right, call 'dpkg -i file.deb'
[12:00] <pvl> bambi if someone else can access the picture from another computer then its a problem with your computer
[12:00] <padavoine> chris_2: most of the time it does the job if you had to interrupt any package installing
[12:00] <neverblue> chris_2, is that the error from synaptic?
[12:00] <brambi> pvl what the hell are you talking about?
