[12:03] <alvanson> kane77, I just had that same problem
[12:03] <Pelo> softoninox,  you need to be patient in the other channels they are not as busy as this one, ask your questions periodicaly someone will answer eventualy
[12:03] <Seveas> niuq, that's an error on the proxy server you are using, Has nothing to do with Ubuntu
[12:03] <kane77> alvanson, did you manage to solve it?
[12:04] <softoninox> ok, thanks
[12:04] <niuq> Seveas: the problem is, i am not using any proxy server
[12:04] <Andeh> Hi
[12:04] <Andeh> is there a good speech recognition program for ubuntu?
[12:04] <alvanson> kane77, only by removing all my dot files
[12:04] <Seveas> niuq, yes you are :) maybe a transparent proxy server at your ISP?
[12:04] <Pelo> Andeh, yes, I donT' recall the name , just do a search for speach in synaptic
[12:05] <mumbles> whats the link for the alternitive install cd ?
[12:05] <niuq> Seveas: not sure about that... never had that problem beore
[12:05] <niuq> before*
[12:05] <brohken> rsk pelo, that guide says my nvidia card should be a restricted driver
[12:05] <brohken> i don't see it there
[12:05] <brohken> only my atheros card
[12:05] <xeer> how can i get the dhcp address of a system?
[12:05] <rsk> brohken: ok :/
[12:05] <mumbles> the new install cd dosent work on my ibm thinkpad and i realy dont want to have to go via an old install cd
[12:05] <kane77> alvanson, on my second computer the cube actualy never worked, here it did, however now (I turned effects off and then on) it doesn't...
[12:05] <rsk> brohken: then it didnt detect it then, do it the other way
[12:05] <Pelo> brohken,  then you need to use the binary
[12:06] <alvanson> kane77, how many virtual desktops do you have now?
[12:06] <keen> is there a way to minimize evolution mail to the system tray, and not the task bar?
[12:06] <Seveas> niuq, I'm 99% sure that the server you are downloading from isn't behind a proxy so the problem is on your end (btw, I have no problem downloading that file)
[12:06] <kane77> alvanson, only one..
[12:06] <GIn> it seems gnome can not connect to my ssh account on a remote server. When I try to create a new connection, it does nothing. :S
[12:06] <Ahadiel> kane77:  Therein lies the problem.
[12:07] <Ahadiel> kane77: You need more than one to see a cube.... (or any shape for that matter)
[12:07] <Pelo> keen,  not that I know of but you can use an email notifer like gnubiff it can check your accounts periodicaly and let you know when you have an email

[12:08] <Pelo> keen,  why ?  mine isn'T  , I donT get what the issue is
[12:08] <SamWeasley> Okay for mounting on Dapper, but on Feisty it mounts and unmounts automatically giving "unsecure remove" on nautilus
[12:08] <keen> pelo: maybe i'm using it wrong =P

[12:09] <Ahadiel> kane77: All I can say is set more than 1 virtual desktop.
[12:09] <softoninox> somebody configuration vhcs ?
[12:09] <alvanson> kane77, Ahadiel, but when you go to add more desktops, the cube doesn't come back
[12:09] <alvanson> kane77, at any time, did you suspend or hibernate?

[12:12] <kane77> alvanson, don't know why actualy but I tried couple of times to set it to 4 desktops.. the cube didn't come back, switched the "workspaces on cube" checkbox on and of (that gave me back only one desktop) and I did it all again and it suddenly showed 4 desktops and they are on cube!!...
[12:12] <rsk> taime1: nforce2

[12:38] <PriceChild> x-code, right in gaim, accounts > Add/Edit
[12:39] <lufis> rockets: It will work, if you don't have it installed then obviously the files aren't going to play. w32codecs has to be downloaded separately https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:39] <x-code> ok
[12:39] <x-code> and
[12:39] <lufis> PriceChild: I'm used to gutsy, sorry ;)
[12:39] <x-code> ?
[12:39] <rofljohn> alright, i've never use linux before and i just installed linux on an old computer that was able to run windows XP fine, and there are weird lines going vertically down the screen :-x
[12:39] <rockets> lufis, I know that. I've installed w32codecs
[12:39] <nickrud> Lindar, did you add ndiswrapper to /etc/modules?
[12:39] <PriceChild> x-code, then on the new window, press Add. A 3rd window will appear, and there, I want you to change the protocol to xmpp/jabber - whichever appears
[12:39] <PriceChild> lufis, tell me about it :)
[12:39] <lufis> rockets: And you're trying to use totem?
[12:39] <rockets> lufis, yes. I've instaled it via the medibuntu repository
[12:39] <PriceChild> x-code, tell me when you've done that.
[12:40] <dreadh3ad> Anyone have experience in sharing firefox profiles between xp and ubuntu?
[12:40] <rockets> lufis, yes.
[12:40] <CoY> x-code add/remove and you should find Gaim under the sounds
[12:40] <x-code> well i have only jabber
[12:40] <Lindar> nickrud: You mean modprobe?
[12:40] <x-code> i dont know
[12:40] <rockets> lufis, you go try to play a .ram file right now in totem. good luck.
[12:40] <x-code> where is
[12:40] <PriceChild> x-code, choose jabber
[12:40] <Abraxas_> oh..hi...go figure, i gotta turn off autojoin someday
[12:40] <nickrud> Lindar, you can test if that's all you have to do with sudo modprobe ndiswrapper ; if it works after that add ndiswrapper to /etc/modules to have it automatically loaded at boot
[12:40] <x-code> i choose
[12:40] <PriceChild> x-code, different versions swap the two names... they mean the same :)
[12:40] <lufis> rockets: Have you tried totem-xine?
[12:40] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, I can think of a way to do it with symlinks
[12:40] <x-code> ok
[12:40] <x-code> cool
[12:40] <PriceChild> x-code, so now lets put in your details.
[12:40] <lufis> rockets: It works for me, actually
[12:40] <rockets> lufis, no, that would be totem-xine. Then I wouldn't be using totem-gstreamer
[12:40] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, assuming you can link to fat32 or ntfs or whatever the windows filesystem is on your computer
[12:40] <Lindar> Err... how do I add it to etc/modules?
[12:41] <PriceChild> x-code, your username is the bit before the @gmail.com. For me, my username is "pricechild" if my email is "pricechild@gmail.com"
[12:41] <hypodyne> I need to find a good room on general programming
[12:41] <Lindar> Do I just copy the folder to that directory?
[12:41] <brohken> i installed nvidia-glx
[12:41] <rockets> lufis, I have kaffeine installed with xine
[12:41] <CoY> did I ever mention how much LUNIX ROCKS!?
[12:41] <neztiti> http://www.dm3t.com/uploads/d0faacdd6d.png
[12:41] <rofljohn> anyone help? im assuming its a problem with the hardware
[12:41] <lufis> rockets: And it works with kaffeine?
[12:41] <bruenig> !pm | dreadh3ad
[12:41] <ubotu> dreadh3ad: 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.
[12:41] <brohken> how do i pull up the nvidia menu once i installed nvidia-glx
[12:41] <rockets> lufis, haven't tried it.
[12:41] <Aval0n_> anyone know how to get ac3 passthrough workin in fiesty?
[12:41] <nickrud> Lindar, no, /etc/modules is a text file; gksu gedit /etc/modules
[12:41] <PriceChild> x-code, your domain is the bit after your username, this is either gmail.com or googlemail.co.uk if you are in the uk
[12:41] <lufis> rockets: Then... try it.
[12:41] <rockets> lufis, kaffeine is a last resort for me.
[12:41] <PriceChild> x-code, so have you put those in?
[12:41] <neztiti> PriceChild: http://www.dm3t.com/uploads/d0faacdd6d.png
[12:41] <onexused> Lately when I plug any usb thumb drive into any usb port on my computer, it mounts, but almost immediately unmounts again.  There's nothing in /dev for the drive anymore, either.
[12:41] <dreadh3ad> !pm | bruenig
[12:41] <ubotu> bruenig: 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.
[12:41] <dreadh3ad> ahh whats the command to pm?
[12:41] <brohken> how do i pull up the nvidia menu once i installed nvidia-glx
[12:41] <lufis> rockets: I don't think a rm decoder exists for gstreamer, you'd be better off with totem-xine
[12:41] <PriceChild> neztiti, broken
[12:41] <rockets> lufis, its not a question of "how can I play ram files?". Its a question of how can I play them with totem-gstreamer
[12:42] <x-code> after that
[12:42] <x-code> wat do i do
[12:42] <x-code> ?
[12:42] <x-code> pricechild u there
[12:42] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, ubotu is reminding you to not pm
[12:42] <CoY> sounds like it fdisked your drive
[12:42] <x-code> ?
[12:42] <PriceChild> x-code, calm down :)
[12:42] <rockets> lufis, I tried totem-xine, it doesn't support as many formats. Some movies wouldn't play.
[12:42] <neztiti> w8????
[12:42] <dreadh3ad> oh
[12:42] <CoY> x-code messege me
[12:42] <lufis> rockets: Have you got libxine-extracodecs?
[12:42] <Lindar> nickrud: okay, so I just stick a pointer to the directory in that file?
[12:42] <PriceChild> x-code, right now put your password in, and select "remember password" if you want that.
[12:42] <PriceChild> x-code, next, go to the "Advanced" tab at the top
[12:42] <rockets> lufis, at last a useful suggestion!
[12:42] <lufis> rockets: Don't be rude
[12:42] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, for your own sake, it is a bad idea honestly, people can give you stupid instructions in pm, and no one here can see it to tell you how stupid it is
[12:42] <ROBOTBEE> wooooooo
[12:42] <rockets> lufis, don't make silly suggestions
[12:43] <dreadh3ad> haha ok
[12:43] <PriceChild> x-code, on this page, you want to set the "Connect port" to 5222, and the "connect server" to talk.google.com
[12:43] <PriceChild> x-code, once that's done, press save and it should all work
[12:43] <dreadh3ad> ok
[12:43] <lufis> rockets: You're the one hell-bent on totem-gstreamer for some reason, even though it won't even play what you want
[12:43] <brohken> how do i pull up the nvidia menu once i installed nvidia-glx
[12:43] <nickrud> Lindar. No, what that file is, is a list of kernel modules that need to be loaded during bootup.
[12:43] <CharlieSu> what package has GNU make in it for ubuntu?? i'm trying to install mythtv from source..  and i need to be able to build stuff
[12:43] <rockets> lufis, Hell bent because I want to play everything within one GTK application. With that application NOT being vlc.
[12:43] <nickrud> Lindar, just type    ndiswrapper    on the last line, hit enter, and save. Done :)
[12:43] <bruenig> !info gmake
[12:43] <ubotu> Package gmake does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:43] <bruenig> !find gmake
[12:43] <PriceChild> CharlieSu, mythtv is in the repositories?
[12:44] <ubotu> File gmake found in gnulib, smake
[12:44] <PriceChild> CharlieSu, have you installed build-essential?
[12:44] <Lindar> Gotcha.
[12:44] <nickrud> Lindar, a new line in the file, for clarity
[12:44] <bruenig> CharlieSu, gnulib
[12:44] <Lindar> On sec and I'll try it.
[12:44] <CharlieSu> no thanks
[12:44] <PriceChild> x-code, so does that work?
[12:44] <rockets> lufis, Ok I'm playing it with Kaffeine + libxine-extracodecs. "No plugin found to handle this resource"
[12:44] <dreadh3ad> I have a 100 gig ext3 partition for xp and ubuntu file sharing.  I copied the firefox profile info from my ntfs drive and put it in a folder within the ext3 partition.  I used the firefox profile manager to create a new profile and set it to use the profile within the ext3 drive.  Through the profile mananger launch prompt everything is fine it loads witht he profile i selected.  If i click the firefox icon in the toolbar it loads with the 
[12:45] <papapep> CharlieSu: http://tinyurl.com/3x9b9m
[12:45] <lufis> PriceChild: Btw, i ended up just compiling my own version of that package yesterday
[12:45] <rxKaffee> I've installed nm-pptp package version 0.6.3+cvs20060819-0ubuntu2, but no vpn options are showing up in my networkmanager tray applet(nm-applet)
[12:45] <PriceChild> lufis, which package?
[12:45] <rofljohn> can anyone help me quick
[12:45] <onexused> Lately when I plug any usb thumb drive into any usb port on my computer, it mounts, but almost immediately unmounts again.  There's nothing in /dev for the drive anymore, either.  What can I do to make it work again?
[12:45] <firebird619> Could someone recommend a good CD Label Maker program?
[12:45] <x-code> price child
[12:45] <dreadh3ad> any ideas?
[12:45] <rxKaffee> when I right click on the applet icon it shows "Enable networking"(its checked), and About, when I left click, it shouws "Manul configuration"
[12:45] <lufis> rockets: Then I don't know what to tell you, either you don't have all the codecs installed or there's a problem with the media player or movie file, it works fine for me in totem-xine and kaffeine, but not in vlc
[12:45] <x-code> i have screen name and server
[12:45] <lufis> PriceChild: libaspell15
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> rofljohn: just ask your question... if we cna help we will.
[12:45] <x-code> i did the screen name
[12:45] <PriceChild> lufis, never heard of it
[12:45] <rockets> mm
[12:45] <rofljohn> alright, i've never use linux before and i just installed linux on an old computer that was able to run windows XP fine, and there are weird lines going vertically down the screen :-x
[12:46] <lufis> PriceChild: it's the spellchecker lib for pidgin/gaim
[12:46] <x-code> with the bit be4 the @gamil
[12:46] <x-code> and the server
[12:46] <rxKaffee> from the pages I've read online, it should show a variety of availiable connection types when I left right click
[12:46] <PriceChild> lufis, ooook.... 8-)
[12:46] <rofljohn> im assuming its just a problem with the computer itself but i dunno
[12:46] <x-code> is @gamil com
[12:46] <lufis> :p
[12:46] <x-code> will it work
[12:46] <x-code> ?
[12:46] <PriceChild> x-code, no
[12:46] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, you didn't finish your statement
[12:46] <onexused> rofljohn, sounds like what my ancient monitor used to do when the vsync was wrong
[12:46] <papapep> rofljohn: try typing "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and select the "vesa" graphic card
[12:46] <PriceChild> x-code, tell me what field you are confused about, "Domain", or "Connect Server"
[12:46] <john_do1> how do I switch to my usb audio device? it is already in /proc/asound/cards
[12:46] <acke> how to make /tmp/test write and read for all?????
[12:46] <PriceChild> x-code, there should be _NO_ "@" symbols in any fields
[12:47] <cb1> how do I clean up synaptic packet manager from ovsoleted packages
[12:47] <bruenig> acke, /tmp should already be
[12:47] <grahamba> Hi - I'd like to switch to Ubuntu, but I store a lot of my data on an NTFS external hard drive. I've read lots of conflicting things when searching for information, on whether or not Ubuntu is compatible with NTFS and able to both read and write to NTFS drives. Can anyone enlighten me as to whether or not this is possible, and if so, perhaps point me in the direction of anything I might need to enable it? Thank you!
[12:47] <bruenig> cb1, package*
[12:47] <dreadh3ad> My question is: When i have selected firefox to launch with one specific profile, why will it only laundh with that profile through the profile mananger screen?
[12:47] <acke> chmod a+rx /tmp/test?
[12:47] <rxKaffee> cb1: apt-get autoremove
[12:47] <PriceChild> !ntfs | grahamba
[12:47] <ubotu> grahamba: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:47] <softoninox> somebody can help me to configure dns with vhcs
[12:47] <PriceChild> !ntfs-3g | grahamba
[12:47] <ubotu> grahamba: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:47] <acke> bruenig: its a hypotetical qyestion
[12:47] <dreadh3ad> why is the selected profile not my default profile (im trying to share +3000 favorites between xp and ubuntu)
[12:47] <aguitel> what the best backup program?
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> firebird619: did you get a label maker recommendation?
[12:47] <PriceChild> !best | aguitel
[12:47] <ubotu> aguitel: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[12:47] <lufis> !ntfs | grahamba
[12:47] <nickrud> aguitel, sbackup is simple
[12:47] <firebird619> IndyGunFreak: No, not yet. Do you have one?
[12:48] <lufis> whoops
[12:48] <bruenig> acke, well if it already is rw, then the answer is to do nothing or if you wish do: echo "I ask stupid questions"
[12:48] <x-code> i dont know
[12:48] <Lunis> grahamba, I have been accessing my external NTFS hard drive in ubuntu for quite some time, both reading and writing, and it works perfectly.
[12:48] <x-code> how to make it work
[12:48] <Aval0n_> how do I get ac3 passthrough working?
[12:48] <x-code> can u like remote login

[12:48] <grahamba> Lunis: that's encouraging! thanks
[12:48] <x-code> and do it for me
[12:48] <brohken> can someone tell me what nvidia-glx is? how do i install nvidia drivers. i read the guide and it didnt help me
[12:48] <PriceChild> x-code, No
[12:48] <PriceChild> x-code, because you don't know me
[12:48] <x-code> please
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> firebird619: only one i know of, is cd-circleprint  it should be in the repos, and of course, you need to configure your printer to get it to work.
[12:48] <x-code> lol
[12:48] <PriceChild> x-code, for all you know, I will crack your machine and take control of it.
[12:48] <PriceChild> x-code, now what are you confused about?
[12:48] <acke> bruenig: how do i make media/sda7/temp read and writable?
[12:48] <firebird619> IndyGunFreak: Great, thanks. I'll check it out.
[12:48] <onexused> Lately when I plug any usb thumb drive into any usb port on my computer, it mounts, but almost immediately unmounts again.  There's nothing in /dev for the drive anymore, either.  What can I so to get it to work again?
[12:48] <bruenig> acke, what is the fiileystem of that drive?
[12:48] <x-code> i dont have domian name on the window or username
[12:49] <acke> bruenig: ext2
[12:49] <x-code> i have screen name
[12:49] <PriceChild> x-code, I've explained what you need to put in every field... but if you've missed anything I'll repeat it for you :)
[12:49] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: any idea?
[12:49] <bruenig> acke, chmod +rw -R it
[12:49] <x-code> thanks man

[12:50] <PriceChild> x-code, its very important that on the advanced tab... your "connect server" is "talk.google.com"
[12:50] <bruenig> Fujoor, not sure
[12:50] <nickrud> aguitel, ah, luckily I've never had to research a total restore.
[12:50] <x-code> hey man it worked
[12:50] <x-code> :D

[12:51] <lufis> john_do1: have you got multiple sound devices?
[12:51] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, how can I make
[12:51] <aguitel> nickrud ,this is a good question
[12:51] <Lunis> neztiti, it takes more than a picture to ask a question
[12:51] <Fujoor> sorry ifconfig

[12:51] <sirjoshimus> hi there, for some reason my ./configure command isnt working
[12:51] <x-code> price child
[12:51] <nickrud> aguitel, but sbackup uses a standard method of backups; that's why I chose it. There's a lot of how-to's on the web for restoring a tar rotating backup system
[12:51] <x-code> ?
[12:51] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: how can i make this newly created profile the default one?
[12:51] <sirjoshimus> its saying it doesnt exist as a command
[12:51] <lufis> sirjoshimus: Are you in the source directory?
[12:51] <sirjoshimus> yeah
[12:51] <sirjoshimus> its on my desktop
[12:51] <sirjoshimus> cd Desktop
[12:52] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, did you redirect firefox's default to that?
[12:52] <neztiti> ok thanx man
[12:52] <nickrud> aguitel, google    tar rotating backup  , that's what I'll do if I ever need to restore the whole system.
[12:52] <Lunis> sirjoshimus, that's not a global command, it's a command that exists only in certain situations, and must be chmodded u+x to run
[12:52] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: How do i do that?
[12:52] <aguitel> ok
[12:52] <sirjoshimus> i see
[12:52] <sirjoshimus> im trying to compile pidgin
[12:52] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, what exactly did you do in the ProfileManager
[12:52] <sirjoshimus> what would i do for that?
[12:52] <john_do1> lufis: yes, I have an onboard card and my usb card. I want to use the usb card but even if I switch with egasoundconf-gtk it doesn't change the card in use...
[12:52] <Fujoor> anyone who knows how to edit so i can have one static local ip?
[12:52] <PriceChild> !highno | sirjoshimus
[12:52] <ubotu> sirjoshimus: A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine. You should have a better reason than "newer" when considering compiling from source or using 3rd party repos.
[12:52] <lufis> sirjoshimus: run "pwd" and paste what it outputs
[12:52] <Fujoor> for ex, 192.168.1.200
[12:53] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: i created a new profile and had it select the profile data from the ext3 partition
[12:53] <PriceChild> neztiti, sudo rm -rf /root/.Trash/*
[12:53] <PriceChild> neztiti, and _STOP_ using a root nautilus
[12:53] <lufis> john_do1: is the obboard card disabled in the bios?
[12:53] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, ok so use that profile
[12:53] <onexused> How can I get my usb drives to work again?  When I plug a thumbdrive into a usb port, it looks like it mounts and unmounts right away.  I can't find sdc (which should be the drive) in /dev, either.
[12:53] <apeitheo> I'm having trouble getting my soundcard working properly. When I plug headphones in, sound still comes out of the laptop speakers (it has an intel hd-audio soundcard)
[12:53] <sirjoshimus> /home/sirjoshimus/Desktop
[12:53] <sirjoshimus> /home/sirjoshimus/Desktop
[12:53] <Yochua> Can anyone help me with getting sound on Tux Guitar pleasE?
[12:53] <lufis> sirjoshimus: Then you're not in the source directory ;)
[12:53] <dennda> Hi. Is there any better way to update from Feisty to Gutsy than to edit sources.list and do dist-upgrade?
[12:53] <papapep> Fujoor: do you have a double monitor icon on your top task bar?
[12:53] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: There is only one profile there.  It will only load when i use launch prompt from profile manager.  If i use the shortcut on my toolbar it uses the old profile
[12:53] <lufis> sirjoshimus: is the tarball on the desktop?
[12:54] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, launch it with firefox -P name
[12:54] <sirjoshimus> yeah
[12:54] <sirjoshimus> oh crap, i forgot to extract it
[12:54] <lufis> sirjoshimus: did you extract it?
[12:54] <john_do1> lufis: no, I would not need to do that with other linux distributions...
[12:54] <nickrud> dennda, update-manager -d
[12:54] <lufis> ...Yeah :)
[12:54] <sirjoshimus> duh, thanks
[12:54] <lufis> john_do1: maybe so, but it might work
[12:54] <sirjoshimus> thanks
[12:54] <dennda> nickrud: this works for unstable as well?
[12:54] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: do you mean the launcher properties command = "firefox -P name"   ?
[12:54] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, yeah change name though
[12:54] <dreadh3ad> ok
[12:55] <sirjoshimus> PriceChild: theres no official .deb for pidgin yet
[12:55] <nickrud> dennda, yes, the -d is for development version, -c is for new release
[12:55] <dennda> nickrud: thanks
[12:55] <sirjoshimus> PriceChild: and pidgin rules, so therefore i must have it, heh
[12:55] <PriceChild> sirjoshimus, no there isn't. Gaim works perfectly.
[12:55] <nickrud> dennda, and don't use that word, unstable ;)
[12:55] <bruenig> new software scares new users
[12:55] <bruenig> ubuntu is friendly to new users
[12:55] <dennda> nickrud: yeah. it*s confusing
[12:55] <Yochua> I need help with getting sound on Tux guitar, please help
[12:56] <john_do1> lufis: I want to be able to switch between them...
[12:56] <bruenig> especially in that situation, "I don't understand, where did gaim go and what is this pidgin, linux sucks, I am going back to windows"
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> Yochua: does your sound work otherwise?
[12:56] <bruenig> that is what they would do :P
[12:56] <Yochua> IndyGunFreak:  Yeah it does
[12:56] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: still loads with the original default profile
[12:56] <nickrud> names change everywhere, they'll get over it
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> wierd
[12:56] <lufis> john_do1: And you said you tried configuring it in system > preferences > sound?
[12:56] <savetheWorld> Is there a list of the apt packages anywhere? with descriptions?
[12:56] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, paste theh command you used
[12:56] <dreadh3ad> firefox -P shared
[12:56] <dreadh3ad> shared is the name of the profile
[12:57] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, run it in the terminal
[12:57] <kaveh> any one can help me setup wireless
[12:57] <john_do1> lufis: yes, it doesn't change anything.
[12:57] <dennda> nickrud: what about packages from inofficial repositories? will it be uninstalled and sources.list resetted? (talking about trevinos compiz fusion repo)
[12:57] <onexused> When I plug a usb thumb drive into my computer, it doesn't mount, and I can't find it in /dev.  What can I do about this?
[12:57] <rofljohn> papapep it says the reconfigure must be run as root
[12:57] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | kaveh
[12:57] <ubotu> kaveh: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:57] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: when i do that the profile manager comes up and the default profile is the only one available.  The newly created one is not there.
[12:58] <bruenig> !repeat | onexused
[12:58] <ubotu> onexused: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:58] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, ok so this shared profile doesn't really even exist
[12:58] <kaveh> IndyGunFreak, i am reaing it
[12:58] <papapep> rofljohn: then add "sudo" at the beggining of the command
[12:58] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: if i sudo firefox -profilemanager the profile does exist
[12:58] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, sudo? why in the hell are you using sudo?
[12:58] <papapep> "sudo[space]  the _rest_of_the_command"
[12:58] <dreadh3ad> because im a noob and dont know any better
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: and that is why sudo is safer than root, if anyone needs an example..lol
[12:59] <Yochua> So can anyone help with my tuxguitar issue?
[12:59] <dave5689> hey everybody! i've got a strange problem with the secure shell if anyone wants to help me whisp =)
[12:59] <ax1s> Hey ..  for some reason ubuntu isn't recognizing my JBOD as 1 disk
[12:59] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, ok so that is reading a different directory
[12:59] <ax1s> any suggestions?
[12:59] <dennda> i'll give it a try. thanks
[12:59] <dennda> bye
[12:59] <nickrud> dennda, That I'm not sure about. Based on what policy has been, I'd expect them to be unchanged.
[12:59] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, that isn't safer
[12:59] <brohken> someone please help me get my nvidia driver working
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: sudo will keep most users from hosing their system by jut running in root..
[12:59] <ax1s> why can't ubuntu see my jbod drive .. it's showing 2 drives
[01:00] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, in fact the sudo here likely leads to confusion, because they don't realize that root has its own configuration directory just like a user has their own configuration directory
[01:00] <thedash> anybody good with netcat ?
[01:00] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, because they don't even know root exists
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: yah... didn't think of it that way
[01:00] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, ok so launch -profilemanager without sudo and make the profile like you did before
[01:00] <Yochua> Can anyone help me with putting a cutsom soundbank card in Tux guitar?
[01:01] <ax1s> seriously ..  why isn't my jbod drive showing up as 1 disk
[01:01] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: i created the new profile and selected that as the default profile but i am getting an NS_ERROR_FAILURE
[01:01] <GIn> hi
[01:01] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, what is that
[01:02] <GIn> can you only prelink firefox instead of the whole system>?
[01:02] <nickrud> Yochua, you might have better luck at http://www.tuxguitar.com.ar/forums.html
[01:02] <bruenig> GIn, firefox is a pretty static app
[01:02] <msalacain> i'm having trouble "make"ing anything. i get this error, regardless of what i build: /usr/bin/as: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
[01:02] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: componet returned failured code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nslStringBundle.formatStringFromName] 
[01:02] <Sanukode> hola
[01:02] <GIn> bruenig, so no way to speed the startup?
[01:02] <bruenig> dreadh3ad, looks like maybe the name of the directory you gave it isn't sufficient, maybe permission error, check those out
[01:03] <bruenig> GIn, I don't imagine prelinking will do much good, be like prelinking vlc
[01:03] <dreadh3ad> bruenig what would the permission error be?  the directory does exist, when i click ok i can still access firefox and utilize my favorites
[01:04] <bruenig> just stop using windows, this is hurting my head, you are all over the place, I have no idea what you are talking about
[01:04] <bruenig> format windows, good to go
[01:04] <dreadh3ad> bruenig: if linux could be used for gaming i wouldnt need windows
[01:04] <nickrud> rflol, forceful advice ;)
[01:04] <dreadh3ad> wow i guess hes pissed....
[01:05] <msalacain> to build stuff, i only need to install 'build-essential' now, correct?
[01:05] <DARKGuy> poor bruenig
[01:05] <DARKGuy> must be stressed :(
[01:05] <lufis> msalacain: you may need additional dependencies, but yes
[01:05] <dreadh3ad> poor me, im still fucked with this error
[01:05] <dreadh3ad> lol
[01:05] <DARKGuy> but that's no way to think either, anybody can have their choose of OS to use -.-
[01:05] <nickrud> msalacain, and any -dev packages needed for what you're compiling
[01:05] <DARKGuy> *choice
[01:06] <rofljohn> papapep it seems like it was set on vesa already
[01:06] <msalacain> lufis, nickrud- it works on my laptop, but this new system, i try to build anything and i get this error: /usr/bin/as: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
[01:06] <lufis> msalacain: build-essential is installed?
[01:06] <papapep> rofljohn: ups....then you've got some problems with your monitor...have you got any other more modern to try if it works?
[01:07] <msalacain> lufis, yes
[01:07] <lufis> msalacain: what are you trying to compile?
[01:07] <msalacain> lufis, currently, an ati video4linux driver
[01:08] <Fujoor> does anyone know how to set a static ip in ubuntu?=
[01:08] <lufis> Fujoor: do you have a dynamic ip?
[01:08] <Fujoor> lufis: dynamic local ip yes
[01:08] <Fujoor> lufis: want to set it to local static
[01:08] <nickrud> msalacain, try compiling a hello world you know works; if that fails try sudo aptitude reinstall binutils (that contains /usr/bin/as)
[01:09] <msalacain> nickrud, thanks, i'll try that
[01:09] <kmak> onexused: try in terminal: cat /proc/partitions
[01:09] <nickrud> msalacain, that's a big shotgun approach; no skill, big power ;)
[01:09] <kmak> onexused: will give you a list of all partitions mounted or not
[01:09] <kaveh> IndyGunFreak, http://rafb.net/p/sepcwJ70.html
[01:10] <kaveh> i can not start it
[01:10] <msalacain> nickrud, no such luck: sudo aptitude reinstall binutils
[01:10] <msalacain> /usr/bin/aptitude: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> kaveh: i'm not that familiar with wireless, i just knew a link to the wiki... can you get on w/ wep?
[01:10] <nickrud> hah.
[01:11] <nickrud> ah, heck
[01:11] <The_Belgain> quick question - should bugs in packages in theubuntu commercial repository go in launchpad?
[01:11] <msalacain> nickrud, sounds like something is broken
[01:11] <uygar> is it true command "apt-get install proftp" ? cause it says "so such command"
[01:11] <kaveh> 10x
[01:11] <benn92647> hidey ho nieghbourino's
[01:11] <GIn> lol, I can't write mail using hotmail :D
[01:11] <The_Belgain> specifically, this is the vmware-server package...
[01:11] <PriceChild> uygar, don't use ftp, itts unsecure
[01:11] <PriceChild> !away > Ashfire908
[01:11] <nickrud> msalacain, big time. Close that terminal, try another.
[01:11] <benn92647> ntsf-3G rules!
[01:11] <kmak> uygar: you must sudo to use that command, but always use aptitude instead!
[01:11] <msalacain> nickrud, doesn't matter, between reboots its still failing
[01:11] <Taffy-nay> Hey peepz, i have a missin dependency that apt cant find...and i'm having mo luck with google "librsvg-2.0"...........any ideas where I can find it?
[01:12] <nickrud> msalacain, not a clue then, sorry.
[01:12] <msalacain> nickrud, trying apt-get remove/install
[01:12] <BaD_CrC> what is a good and reliable pcmcia wireless network card for a laptop that works with ubuntu/linux?
[01:12] <n0dding0ff> How hard is it to eavesdrop on a Linux system compared to Windows?
[01:12] <PriceChild> Taffy-nay, librsvg2-2
[01:12] <BaD_CrC> anything natively supported by the kernel
[01:12] <benn92647> msalacain: have you tried to browse the install disc to see if it is on it?
[01:13] <kmak> msalacain: ubuntu recommends the use of aptitude instead of apt-get for all tasks
[01:13] <The_Belgain> any ideas about reporting bugs in the vmware-server package (this is a packaging bug rather than a product bug) - there doesn't appear to be a vmware-server package listed in launchpad....
[01:13] <sirjoshimus> ah yes, just got pidgin compile and installed
[01:13] <nickrud> msalacain, the scariest thing was:  1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") for both aptitude and as, those are totally unrelated programs.
[01:13] <Ashfire908> PriceChild: chill out. 4 lines over one hour is not a big deal.
[01:13] <PriceChild> kmak, and where on earth does it reccomend that?
[01:13] <PriceChild> Ashfire908, Please turn it off :)
[01:13] <kmak> been all over the internets lately, digg, etc.
[01:13] <nickrud> msalacain, and if you can't run aptitude or apt-get, that's way out of my league
[01:13] <Ashfire908> uh, no.
[01:13] <kmak> aptitude is far more advanced in almost all areas
[01:14] <msalacain> kmak, is there a major difference?
[01:14] <nickrud> Ashfire908, um, you might want to reconsider
[01:14] <Goooner> What file system would Ubuntu like to be installed on? And what file system can I use for a partition common for both Ubuntu and XP?
[01:14] <kmak> YES aptitude is better at dependancy resolution, system upgrades and resolving conflicts among others
[01:14] <benn92647> LOL
[01:14] <ahmadsaifan> Gooner, use Wubi, very easy linux installtion
[01:14] <ahmadsaifan> googl wubi
[01:15] <sauvin> Gooner: Ubuntu wants ext3 (but can live with others); your Windows will want NTFS. A separate partition you'll use for exchange bewteen Windows and Ubuntu probably wants to be FAT32.
[01:15] <nickrud> kmak, but apt-get is getting better; I read a debian email message that apt-get was gonna change to be aptitude like ;)
[01:15] <msalacain> kmak- ok, good to know, i'll use aptitude instead. never had a problem before this
[01:15] <io_> ciao a tutti
[01:15] <Ashfire908> nickrud, let me guess: i'm going to be banned for a week or something over four lines?
[01:15] <io_> mi serviva un aiuto
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:15] <Taffy-nay> PriceChild: I have apt telling me that librsvg2-2 is already installed, but the app i'm installing is asking specifficly for librsvg-2.0, i'm a little confuzzled

[01:15] <barhom> I finally managed to install compiz-fusion (Im not using XGL, should I? I have 8800gtx card).. however my question is.. where did that dodge effect go from that comes standard in feisty desktop-effects?
[01:15] <Goooner> sauvin: So FAT32 is good for the common one? Gotcha!
[01:16] <JimboDeLimbo> there is a script I need to run, but I need to edit it first
[01:16] <nomic> anyone know if gtk runs on xfce i'm running xubuntu
[01:16] <PriceChild> Taffy-nay, librsvg2 is in the repos as well...
[01:16] <JimboDeLimbo> the instructions say "This script, by default, assumes you are running beryl in gnome. If you are running beryl in KDE, comment out the gnome line and uncomment the KDE line. If you dont run beryl at all, comment out both lines."
[01:16] <io_> #ubuntu.it
[01:16] <nickrud> Ashfire908, you're not unique, you know. You know the old saw, 'well, if <pickname> can do it, so can I' * 1000
[01:16] <sauvin> Gooner: caveat: FAT32 does NOT support Windows or Linux style permissions.
[01:16] <GIn> it would be nice if the gnome-panel has a notification area similar to MS Windows. which you can hide some icons, because they take up all the space on the panel. I don't need to show up constantly.
[01:16] <benn92647> ok well i am reaady to set up grub to dual but fiesty and windows XP...I have 2 seprate hard drives...my linux is on my SATA and wimows XP is on my IDE what do i tell grub to do
[01:16] <JimboDeLimbo> what does he mean by comment out

[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> benn92647: /me is a glutton for punishment.. :)
[01:18] <sauvin> I'm quite postive. That means you can't establish a "stay_out" directory on your FAT32 partition and expect either operating system to deny access.
[01:18] <Seveas> Fujoor, df -h
[01:18] <Fujoor> thanks
[01:18] <nickrud> miles800, it's like a really stripped down shell
[01:18] <ahmadsaifan> PriceChild, noone is speaking over at ubuntu effects
[01:18] <Ashfire908> nickrud: i just don't see the big deal about 4 lines. if it was a paste, fine, but over one hour...
[01:18] <benn92647> indygunfreak: i dont- linux boots but i need to get into my windows drive
[01:18] <PriceChild> ahmadsaifan, then be patient :)
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> benn92647: hmm, i see.
[01:18] <sauvin> Apart from that consideration, IMO, a FAT32 partition will afford you the least problems in sharing data between Windows and ubuntu. It's wwhat I do.
[01:18] <nickrud> Ashfire908, * 1090 at the moment.
[01:18] <miles800> nickrud: I know what it is, I am just wondering what its function is in the boot process
[01:18] <sirjoshimus> Why do you guys use ubuntu?
[01:19] <lufis> sauvin: what do you think of the ext3 drivers for windows?
[01:19] <sirjoshimus> why not another distro?
[01:19] <benn92647> indygunfreak: i did it before its really easy-I have my linux on my SATA and windows on my IDE all alone
[01:19] <Goooner> sauvin: Stayout? I do not intend to install XP on FAT32. Its already installed on NTFS. Im just intending to create a common file system for both OPs.

[01:19] <Oliazk> question -- would anyone know why i would not be able to connect to a wireless network with a wep key using rt2500
[01:19] <JimboDeLimbo> following the directions for a shell script, it says to comment out certain lines if, for example, you aren't running beryl - what does it mean by 'comment out'
[01:19] <sanzanric> hey anybody have an xorg.conf for the 1420n from dell
[01:20] <benn92647> indygunfreak: all i do is put one line in grub-windows family ???? and then when grub loads it gives me the option to boot into that
[01:20] <lufis> JimboDeLimbo: do some lines have pound signs before them?
[01:20] <msalacain> nickrud, kmak, lufis- thanks for the advice, killed all the packages affected including aptitude, and reinstalled aptitude with synaptic, and then readded everything with aptitude, and my problem went away
[01:20] <Seveas> JimboDeLimbo, that sounds like a bad shell script -- what is it?

[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, thats wierd.
[01:20] <sauvin> Lufis, I don't know a damn thing about the ext3 driver for Windows. Gooner, as long as you're aware that the FAT32 partition won't support ownership, access control lists and suchlike, as long as you're aware that anything you store on that partition is readable, writable, executable and eraseable by anybody with access to that partition, you'll be FINE.

[01:21] <nixternal> Ashfire908: turning off your away script is not only common curtosy for a heavy traffic channel such as this, but is also a decency in IRC etiquette
[01:21] <msalacain> nickrud, well aptitude wasn't even executable, so definitely some weirdity there
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:21] <JimboDeLimbo> lufis: what I thought, I was just making double sure
[01:21] <lufis> JimboDeLimbo: # signifies to the software that it's a comment and not relevant to the application
[01:21] <Seveas> JimboDeLimbo, that thing's nasty!
[01:21] <Goooner> sauvin: Im the only user on the computer. That what you mean?
[01:21] <Ashfire908> nickrud: oh get over it already
[01:21] <JimboDeLimbo> yeah
[01:21] <JimboDeLimbo> very hackis
[01:21] <Seveas> better not use it
[01:21] <lufis> sauvin: just wondering, i've only tried it once
[01:21] <benn92647> hackers rule the universe
[01:21] <hollowlife1987> hmm i did an "apt-get install rssh" and then looked in the /usr/lib/rssh directory and its  not there
[01:21] <JimboDeLimbo> you think?
[01:22] <Seveas> JimboDeLimbo, the problem it's trying to solve is solved much better in Ubuntu 7.10 alpha
[01:22] <sanzanric> no, thats how i screwed up my xorg.conf in the 1st place
[01:22] <sauvin> Gooner, if you're the only person who ever uses that computer, what I've been saying to you isn't important :D
[01:22] <sanzanric> but thanks
[01:22] <PriceChild> Seveas, would it be a shame if that guide disappeared....?
[01:22] <benn92647> how do you think made linux?..worlds top hackers
[01:22] <afaik> heh.. liveCD is booting now
[01:22] <Seveas> PriceChild, not really
[01:22] <JimboDeLimbo> hm
[01:22] <Goooner> sauvin: Okidoki. Wikipedia agrees with us. FAT32 is a good system for a common partition in a dual boot environment ;)
[01:22] <afaik> Dude! That'd be totally sweet if ubuntu works flawlessly on my Sony VAIO, man!
[01:22] <Goooner> Thanks for the warning tho
[01:22] <JimboDeLimbo> seveas it's the closest I've come to getting s-video out to work
[01:22] <benn92647> ok back to me :-P
[01:22] <Seveas> PriceChild, I wouldn't mind if its author suffered from something nasty
[01:22] <sauvin> Oh, good, you checked up. You're smart.
[01:22] <JimboDeLimbo> I'm running 7.04
[01:23] <benn92647> indygunfreak: what do i need to do to grub to let me boot into my other hard disk?>
[01:23] <nixternal> ST47: no need for attacks, thank you.
[01:23] <afaik> how well does ubuntu work with.. NVIDIA these days? Multiple mmory card ports? Integrated wireless? DVD burner?
[01:23] <IndyGunFreak> benn92647: i don't know to be truthful, /join #indygunfreak  we'll figure it out.
[01:23] <afaik> Fingerprint reader?
[01:23] <benn92647> becuase indy can:)
[01:24] <lufis> afaik: dvd burners work fine
[01:24] <afaik> (at least it has correctly detected gfx and sound so far) ;)
[01:24] <PriceChild> afaik, yes to all but the finger print reader which i can't comment on
[01:24] <Pici> afaik: re: nvidia, yes. re: fingerprint reader, yes, but not out of the box and depends on your hardware.
[01:24] <PriceChild> afaik, burn a live cd and boot from it to see waht works on your machine.
[01:24] <PriceChild> afaik, it won't touch your hard drive
[01:24] <Seveas> PriceChild, iirc I've seen that fingerprint reader "work"
[01:24] <Oliazk> question -- would anyone know why i would not be able to connect to a wireless network with a wep key using rt2500
[01:24] <nixternal> Seveas: I have seen the fingerprint reader work up close and personal...it is pretty slick
[01:24] <Optimus55> hey can someone help me install elisa? i downloaded the tar.gz file to my desktop, how to install now?
[01:24] <PriceChild> Seveas, "which i can't coment on" :P
[01:25] <nixternal> and it works in Ubuntu as well
[01:25] <Seveas> nixternal, nice
[01:25] <PriceChild> afaik, seveas says it works :) - as I said, burn a live cd and see what works.
[01:25] <nixternal> iirc it only works on a certain model though which is only available on IBM laptops and I think some Toshiba laptops
[01:25] <Q_Continuum> Odd.  I tried enabling an external monitor, so I killed restarted X, it didn't like that file, so I jumped over to a terminal and copied my backup into place, rebooted and its now not letting me put it back on my built-in monitor.
[01:25] <yugi> Hey everyone. i am having trouble installing my new graphic card the evga 8600..
[01:25] <afaik> my vaio came with vista, which was great at first, but now really really blows and everything crashes
[01:25] <afaik> heh.. want to hear a funny story?
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> Does anyone have a Fire plug in for Beryl Annotate?
[01:26] <PriceChild> afaik, -offtopic ;)
[01:26] <PriceChild> ahmadsaifan, second time. #ubuntu-effects please
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> been there
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> done that
[01:26] <afaik> I was at Agile 2007 this week and we were trying to use vmware on our laptops in our session so everyone could do some ruby stuff on linux
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> noone shows up
[01:26] <Goooner> In a dual boot env. Do I boot from Ubuntu partition?
[01:26] <PriceChild> ahmadsaifan, "then be patient"
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> nah
[01:26] <Optimus55> does anyone know how to install apps from tar.gz files? somethign like sudo make install.. something something?
[01:26] <afaik> I commented to some guy that it seems like vista is unstable and he responded "I cannot either confirm or deny that"
[01:26] <nixternal> ahmadsaifan: patience young grasshopper...it is a weekend and there are a few, unlike me, who have a life :D
[01:26] <Pici> !compiling | Optimus55
[01:26] <ubotu> Optimus55: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[01:26] <yugi> do i have to change my X.org and X server so i can use 8600 gt?
[01:26] <afaik> when I looked at his conference tag, he was from Microsoft. ;)
[01:26] <ahmadsaifan> lol
[01:26] <PriceChild> Goooner, grub is loaded to the "master boot record" at the start of the drive.
[01:26] <Ashfire908> !enter ahmadsaifan
[01:27] <ahmadsaifan> huh?
[01:27] <Seveas> afaik, :)
[01:27] <Goooner> Thanks PriceChild
[01:27] <ahmadsaifan> enter?
[01:27] <Ashfire908> !enter | ahmadsaifan
[01:27] <ubotu> ahmadsaifan: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:27] <PriceChild> Goooner, your bios reads the first part of that to boot from.
[01:27] <Dr_Link> ...O_o
[01:27] <PriceChild> Goooner, its not the partitions but the actual drive
[01:27] <Dr_Link> Someone made my compuer beep using that special control character.
[01:27] <PriceChild> Goooner, you "can" install grub to the partitions then do magic... but that's not default
[01:28] <aguitel> anyone use srestore in the command line?
[01:28] <afaik> live cd looks fine so far... but how can I setup my wifi and see if it connects?
[01:28] <Dr_Link> afaik: What kind of card?
[01:28] <PriceChild> afaik, there's a little icon top right with two computer screens
[01:28] <nandemonai> Hiya people, I have an old 333mhz/64mb toshiba here that I got Xubuntu onto with few problems. Just curious what I should be looking to turn off service wise to free up as much ram as possible? It's running fluxbox fairly well at the moment.
[01:28] <PriceChild> afaik, left click it and see if your access point is listed
[01:28] <Yono> Is there a deluge-torrent repo?
[01:28] <ahmadsaifan> iS there a easy way to change the Ubuntu Start button icon?
[01:28] <Yono> It isn't listed in synaptic
[01:29] <PriceChild> Yono, no, it was removed from the ubuntu repos for feisty afaik. You can still download it from deluge-torrent.org though
[01:29] <afaik> dude
[01:29] <yugi> i need help anyone there?
[01:29] <afaik> this is fscking sweet
[01:29] <nickrud> ahmadsaifan, not easy, no. You'd need to change the distributor-logo.png(s) in whatever theme you're using
[01:29] <Seveas> !anyone | yugi
[01:29] <ubotu> yugi: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:29] <afaik> last time I ran ubuntu I had to do a lot of work to get wireless working
[01:29] <stefano> hi, does anyone know how i can be able to edit the code on etc/modules it doesn't allow me to save it
[01:29] <ahmadsaifan> arrrrgh
[01:29] <PriceChild> afaik, what chipset is it?
[01:29] <Seveas> afaik, people actually work on Ubuntu to solve such problems :)
[01:29] <Yono> PriceChild, is the .deb from the site working for you?
[01:29] <yugi> Seveas i got a VGA card..
[01:29] <nickrud> stefano, gksu gedit /etc/modules
[01:30] <PriceChild> Yono, I don't use it... but it should work
[01:30] <PanicByte> power outages suck, power went out, computer just died, need to buy UPS
[01:30] <afaik> awesome
[01:30] <afaik> I am connected
[01:30] <nickrud> stefano, everything in /etc is a system file; you need to invoke admin privileges to change it
[01:30] <JimboDeLimbo> this looks promising - http://www.notebookforums.com/post1285630.html - care to comment?
[01:30] <PriceChild> afaik, its good isn't it :)
[01:30] <uygar> hello. I use "ubuntu 6.06" and i typed "apt-get update" so is it normal when i type "apt-get install vhcs", it says in my apt-cache it does not exist ?
[01:30] <Q_Continuum> PanicByte, that's why I also use a laptop.  built-in UPS :D
[01:30] <afaik> if my memory cards work, everything is good to go
[01:30] <yugi> Seveas: i just got a new VGA card ,and get and error on load up screen
[01:30] <PanicByte> Q_Continuum, yeah, i'm talking about ONE of my computers
[01:30] <Dr_Link> Ubuntu is by far the most fun OS I've eve rused.
[01:30] <Dr_Link> *ever used
[01:30] <PanicByte> my gaming rig (windows box, figures)
[01:30] <afaik> I'll wipe that bastardized vista  off my laptop for good
[01:31] <Q_Continuum> PanicByte, ah.  Yeah, get a UPS.  You'll love it.
[01:31] <Seveas> yugi, do you get a gui or a blue screen with text?
[01:31] <JimboDeLimbo> afaik gparted worked for me
[01:31] <nickrud> uygar, you can use packages.ubuntu.com to see if it's in the repos
[01:31] <PanicByte> whatever, need to puter anyway, gaming rig getting old
[01:31] <afaik> no more 20 minute startup with 10 "Host Services has stopped responding and been shut down" everytime I boot ;)
[01:31] <Pici> uygar: That package doesnt exist in dapper.
[01:31] <PanicByte> afaik, order a thinkpad without an OS, save moneys
[01:31] <ahmadsaifan> do i need anti-virus for ubuntu? Or is it safe like a MAc?
[01:31] <Pici> !virus | ahmadsaifan
[01:31] <ubotu> ahmadsaifan: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:31] <kmak> Oliazk: you may need to set your wifi card to the correct mode
[01:31] <ahmadsaifan> ok
[01:32] <Pici> ahmadsaifan: short version: its safe
[01:32] <yugi> Seveas, blue and red screen with X server and X.org error i think
[01:32] <afaik> is there some tool included so I can see if the 3D capabilities are used?
[01:32] <ahmadsaifan> link to a goodd a/v maybe
[01:32] <afaik> on my nvidia card?
[01:32] <stefano> thanks nickrud
[01:32] <PriceChild> afaik, they aren't installed by default
[01:32] <kmak> Oliazk: in terminal 'sudo iwpriv <interface name> authmode 1
[01:32] <yugi> Seveas, i just got the 8600 gt evga
[01:32] <Seveas> yugi, hit <ctrl><alt><f1>, log in at that screen and run this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[01:32] <PriceChild> afaik, if you install to your hard drive, then go system > admin > restricted driver manager
[01:32] <Maban> i have a problem trying to install ubuntu.  it comes up with this at 15% progress http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34241/plain/
[01:32] <uygar> pici, how can i install "vhcs" then ?
[01:33] <stefano> how do invoke the priviliges (if it helps i am the administratior of the computer)
[01:33] <Seveas> yugi, ubuntu sometimes fails if you switch video card brands. That bug is being solved for the new version but the instructions I ave you should get Ubuntu working again
[01:33] <afaik> memory cards work
[01:33] <afaik> FSCKING SWEET
[01:33] <Seveas> afaik, bye bye vista?
[01:33] <Seveas> :)
[01:33] <afaik> oh yeah.. I am fed up with it
[01:33] <Pici> uygar: I dont know... Looks like that package doesnt exist in any Ubuntu repos, for any version.
[01:33] <nickrud> stefano, by using sudo on the command line for a text command, or gksu for a gui command.
[01:33] <Oliazk> kmak: yeah i get invalid command authmode when i do that
[01:34] <PanicByte> Maban, were you accessing windows files when you installed? (were you using the LiveCD install?)
[01:34] <afaik> I had a presentation at the conference Friday that had to have no slides because my laptop crashed big time when it started
[01:34] <Maban> yes livecd
[01:34] <PanicByte> hmmmmmm
[01:34] <fr500> is there a way to make a SDTV  work as a good primary screen? text is almost undeadable on my TV
[01:34] <nickrud> !sudo > stefano (see the pm)
[01:34] <PanicByte> is windows currently on the computer??
[01:34] <kmak> Oliazk: what is the command you entered?
[01:35] <Goooner> Shit. I did Gparted on XP partition. Got an error message. Then when creating a new partition, there wasa map with lost + found. THink Im screwed?
[01:35] <afaik> dude... I have 2gigs of ram and vista makes it feel like I have 512 or less
[01:35] <Oliazk> kmak: sudo iwpriv ra0 authmode 1        like you said to do
[01:35] <yugi> Seveas, the instruction about hitting ctrl atl f1 and sudo? one should work on getting it working?
[01:35] <GigaClon> fr500, its not going to work
[01:35] <Goooner> oopsi... Something bad happened...
[01:35] <barhom> I dont get this, on ubuntu when I try to mount an NFS the mount command simply freezez
[01:35] <barhom> it doesnt finish
[01:35] <stefano> ok cheers
[01:36] <fr500> GigaClon: i'm always gonna get this crappy text?
[01:36] <barhom> I can see that the nfs server is accepting the mount though,
[01:36] <nickrud> Goooner, only if there's something in there; all ext2/3 partitions have a lost+found directory
[01:36] <PanicByte> afaik, i know, now i have to deal with vista machines, and it drive me crazy, stupid vista, makes my life harder
[01:36] <Goooner> Oh, okay
[01:36] <Pici> fr500: The resolution on a SD tv is nowhere near the resolution of a computer monitor
[01:36] <kmak> Oliazk: hmm...and you already have the wep key entered, 'sudo iwconfig ra0 key <wep key>' ??
[01:36] <Goooner> But XP got pissed at something...
[01:36] <afaik> heh.. I mean I'm not normally a windows basher really... but this new laptop had vista and started good, but got progressively worse ;)
[01:37] <Goooner> Perhaps the ext-3 part.
[01:37] <Oliazk> kmak: yes i have entered the key i have also disable the security and tried connecting like that and it works it jsut does not want to work when i secure the connection for some reason
[01:37] <fr500> Pici: what about an HDTV with a VGA port?
[01:37] <Pici> fr500: Thats would work.
[01:38] <kmak> Oliazk: that's very strange. not sure why iwpriv will not let you set authmode. it must be set to 1 for wep to work, iirc
[01:39] <Oliazk> kmak: is there anything else i could try to see if iwpriv works with the rt2500 (stupid anoying card arg)
[01:39] <uygar> does anybody know how to set "vhcs panel" up ?
[01:39] <fr500> Pici: i should get monitor crisp image right?
[01:39] <boyam> !ati
[01:39] <Pici> fr500: Yep
[01:39] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:40] <fr500> guess i'll go out shopping with my laptop and try for myself
[01:40] <kmak> Oliazk: not sure about that. my roommate has a similar card and it works fine. wish i could help!
[01:40] <Pici> uygar: What is vhcs?
[01:40] <afaik> well... videos on youtube seem to run rather fluidly, so I think the gfx card will be no worries
[01:40] <richard> has anyone ever installed jackfield
[01:40] <fr500> Oliazk: what card?
[01:40] <Oliazk> kmak: so far with ubuntu i have had the most lucky and unlucky
[01:40] <richard> if you have i need to know how to install it by svn
[01:40] <uygar> pici, "virtual hosting control system"
[01:40] <Oliazk> fr500: rt2500 one of the ralink cards
[01:41] <Oliazk> grr so anoying it will connect in stupid windows but i dont want to use windows for what i am trying to do
[01:42] <richard> i need help installing jackfield. i want to run dashboard widgets on ubuntu
[01:42] <stefano> sorry for beeing a pain but what i am trying to do is add a line with "cx88_dvb" in /etc/modules, what exactly do i have to do
[01:42] <Pici> uygar: There isnt a package, you're going to have to do this manually.  http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?p=4651666 should get you started.  I can't vouch for the accuracy of that though, I just found it through a quick google search.
[01:42] <SmashCat> Hi, anyone know if there's a way to revert back from Ubuntu 7.04 to 6.10?
[01:42] <Pici> !downgrade | SmashCat
[01:42] <ubotu> SmashCat: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[01:43] <SmashCat> Pici: Ok thanks - looks like another reinstall...
[01:43] <RancidLM> hey all, i have a core duo processor, how do i specify a app to use a specific processor for the most part it looks like im using just CPU 0  but i would like to have virtual box run on CPU 1, suggestions please?
[01:44] <revilodraw> help! i think i may have installed kubuntu onto the same partition as xp... now when i boot computer i get 'load needed dlls for kernel'
[01:44] <richard> does anyone know how to put apple dashboard widgets onto linux
[01:44] <revilodraw> rancidlm: do u have both processors working?
[01:45] <afaik> okay.. the deed is done... ubuntu is installing ;)
[01:45] <afaik> I'll wipe out WoW, but I needed to quit playing anyway
[01:45] <PriceChild> afaik, many people get wow working under wine
[01:45] <revilodraw> richard: there are quite a lot of pages dedicated to making linux look like osx (dont know y u would want to) search google
[01:45] <Optimus55> how do i navigate to the desktop from cli?
[01:46] <PriceChild> Optimus55, cd ~/Desktop
[01:46] <GigaClon> Optimus55, cd Desktop
[01:46] <zenmonk> is there a way I can run chkdsk from linux?  I am using it to recover data from a hard drive with bad sectors, I have to use ddrescue since there is not enough free space to recover it to the same disk
[01:46] <RancidLM> revilodraw: and if i do a  sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo it shows em all (both 0 and 1) but if i do a gnome-system-monitor i can see everything is using cpu 0 but for virtualbox i would like it to use 1
[01:46] <GigaClon> assuming you just open a window
[01:46] <Optimus55> ah Thanks!
[01:46] <richard> is there a irc channel i can go to find out how to run dashboard on ubuntu
[01:46] <RancidLM> revilodraw: err yes
[01:46] <PriceChild> richard, and dashboard is?
[01:46] <SmashCat> Looks like 7.04 breaks the nvidia modules for the 6 series and above. They could at least warn people that if they upgrade to 7.04 they'll have to use the command line on their 500 dollar cards ;-)
[01:46] <richard> apple dashboard, you know, the widget engine on mac os x
[01:47] <xbooze> hi all
[01:47] <revilodraw> rancid: so gnome system monitor only shows one cpu in use?
[01:47] <PriceChild> richard, never heard of it.... maybe because its for osx and not ubuntu?
[01:47] <Dr_Link> does TASM come with the development essential package in Ubuntu?
[01:47] <kmak> richard: haha, you're funny
[01:47] <xbooze> i'm totally new to linux
[01:47] <xbooze> and using ubuntu now
[01:47] <richard> theres a program called jackfield that can run dashboard widgets, and im trying to figure out how to install it
[01:47] <Dr_Link> I'm trying to assemble .COM files for my low level OS.
[01:47] <xbooze> I downloaded the NVIDIA drivers
[01:47] <xbooze> but how the hell do I install them ?
[01:47] <xbooze> lol
[01:47] <PriceChild> xbooze, what card do you have?
[01:47] <Vorian> what's the dbus fix for gutsy gsku upgrade?
[01:47] <xbooze> it's a .run file
[01:47] <Vorian> :)
[01:48] <PriceChild> Vorian, #ubuntu+1 ;)
[01:48] <SmashCat> xbooze: Did you get the drivers from the nvidia website?
[01:48] <xbooze> Nvidia 6800GT
[01:48] <revilodraw> help! i think i may have installed kubuntu onto the same partition as xp... now when i boot computer i get 'load needed dlls for kernel'
[01:48] <PriceChild> xbooze, don't use the ones you downloaded
[01:48] <Vorian> aye PriceChild, sorry :)
[01:48] <PriceChild> xbooze, system > admin > restricted driver manager
[01:48] <PriceChild> xbooze, and use that to install them
[01:49] <SmashCat> PriceChild: The nvidia drivers in latest version of ubuntu don't work (fails to load driver modules)
[01:49] <ehc> I have a partition that is mounted by default but as a user do not have access to it. what should I change the settings to in my fstab?
[01:49] <kmak> richard: cool, didn't know such a thing was possible. looks like you will need to compile that, however
[01:49] <PriceChild> SmashCat, they work... just not on newer cards
[01:49] <SmashCat> xbooze: If you get those drivers working that you downloaded, let me know!
[01:49] <xbooze> ok thx :
[01:49] <xbooze> :)
[01:49] <xbooze> I want to let beryl work hehe :D
[01:49] <richard> well theres a svn available for jackfield, but i dont know how to install it
[01:49] <SmashCat> PriceChild: They don't work on my year old 6800. Funnily enough they were working in 6.10
[01:50] <Hadron> ehc: man fstab
[01:50] <taime1> whats a good dock for ubuntu that actually works in feisty?
[01:50] <richard> this is why im on here right now, figuring someone on here has heard of it, and has used it
[01:50] <kmak> richard: thread on the forums, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=431176; looks like a bit of trouble to get working
[01:50] <Blauhaut> is it posible to install x86 ubuntu to 64x computer
[01:50] <PriceChild> Blauhaut, yes, works fine
[01:51] <taime1> works great, actually
[01:51] <Blauhaut> so what will be the diffrent ?
[01:51] <Hadron> Blauhaut: less bugs from bad C programming which dont work in 64 bit registers ...
[01:52] <PriceChild> Blauhaut, nothing...?
[01:52] <PriceChild> Blauhaut, well....
[01:52] <Blauhaut> okk PriceChild  thanks
[01:52] <richard> well i heard that it can work with feisty though
[01:52] <PriceChild> Blauhaut, if you've got 64bit ubuntu on 64bit proc... openssh, databasing and video encoding will be marginally faster... but nothing much overall
[01:52] <ehc> Hadron, the user option allows me to mount it. while mounting it give me permissions to read and write?
[01:52] <lindar> I'm trying to install ubuntu on a dell latitude, but every time it goes to install it, I get some sort of I/O error.
[01:52] <PriceChild> but depensd who you believe
[01:52] <PriceChild> bah
[01:53] <kmak> richard: do you have experience with svn? apparently the developer has said not to use the tarball anymore
[01:53] <xbooze> one quick question again hehe I downloaded a file with .sh extentsion how do I install it ? ( damz windows fucked me up lol :p)
[01:53] <kmak> richard: if you can get it going, more power to you sir
[01:53] <RancidLM> revilodraw: any suggestions?
[01:53] <richard> well im not gonna use the tarball, i was gonna download it using svn
[01:54] <SirBob1701> I just installed xserver-xgl but now my nvidia dual montior settings don't work and nvidia-settings say's i'm not using the nvidia-xorg any help?
[01:54] <PriceChild> SirBob1701, why are you using xgl with nvidia?
[01:54] <kmak> richard: good luck!
[01:54] <SirBob1701> PriceChild: for compiz
[01:54] <SirBob1701> with no xserver-xgl compiz-fusion was crashing
[01:54] <SirBob1701> do i not need it?
[01:54] <afaik> loluh oh.. I have a problem.. when I try to install and use the entire disk, "The ext3 filesystem creating in partion #1 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda) failed.
[01:55] <PriceChild> SirBob1701, I'd suggest you forget whatever you're doing... then use system > preferences > desktop effects
[01:55] <afaik> anyway to get around this?
[01:55] <PriceChild> SirBob1701, that enables compiz
[01:55] <Hadron> ehc: you know how to manually mout it for read and write?
[01:55] <SirBob1701> compi-fusion
[01:55] <SirBob1701> is what i was installing
[01:55] <SirBob1701> someone here said use xserver-xgl
[01:55] <patrlck> hi
[01:55] <Goooner> When I try to install Ubuntu to ext3, it tells me, "No root file system is defined"
[01:55] <patrlck> I had a HD crash and now it my FS is read-only
[01:55] <PriceChild> Goooner, make sure your main partition is set to "/"
[01:55] <Goooner> Oh sorry, nvm
[01:56] <Hadron> if so type "mount" and look at the mount properties.
[01:56] <ehc> Hadron, not off the top of my head. but I could look it up. I want it to automatically  allow my user to read it.
[01:56] <patrlck> I tried mount -o remount,rw / but I get this error : mount: block device /dev/disk/by-uuid/48b73949-d3f8-439b-a079-80d188753d7b is write-protected, mounting read-only
[01:56] <afaik> oh duh.. my disk was mounted, so it couldnt partition it
[01:56] <Hadron> the defaults are for "rw" for ext3. e.g UUID=7dbc023b-6777-4dc5-8bac-23c3908d00ca  /home                    ext3         defaults                            0  2
[01:56] <SirBob1701> PriceChild: also desktops-effects crashed anyway
[01:56] <lindar> "Buffer I/O error on device FD0, logical block 0." is the error I keep getting when I try to install ubuntu on my Dell laptop. What does that mean?
[01:57] <Goooner> Do Ubuntu create a swap partition buy itself on an ext3 partition? Or is that something I have to think about?
[01:57] <SmashCat> SirBob1701: Are you using 7.04?
[01:58] <PriceChild> Goooner, no, you need to make one yourself
[01:58] <Oliazk> WOOOOT THANKS WICD MANAGER THINGY
[01:58] <Goooner> What file system should I use?
[01:58] <Oliazk> or not
[01:59] <kaveh> hi all
[01:59] <Oliazk> hmm oh well seems to be working
[01:59] <MC2TS> i have a sound card problem  cant find any drivers for sound blaster...
[02:00] <kmak> Oliazk: you got it?
[02:00] <kaveh> any one can help me wih wireless pleas
[02:00] <SmashCat> Hmm, looks like there's loads of people that have found the nvidia cards don't work with the recent ubuntu updates. Nice quality control ;-)
[02:01] <Oliazk> kmak: yeah  i put in wicd and rebooted and it seems to be working now
[02:01] <ldz420> I got an error when trying to compile php from source I wanted to know which forum should I post my error?
[02:01] <Anlar> SmashCat: it's not Nvidia's quality control, but the kernel core developers' personal vendetta
[02:01] <Oliazk> now to get my nvidia card worked out again
[02:01] <kmak> Oliazk: awesome! I'll remember that
[02:02] <gottatrieit> Hi, folks. Can someone help me with partitioning?
[02:02] <PriceChild> hey Goooner,
[02:02] <Oliazk> seems to be taking its time doing pings though
[02:02] <PriceChild> Goooner, its up to you to decide how to use the space you have
[02:02] <Oliazk> not sure why
[02:02] <Goooner> lol
[02:02] <PriceChild> Goooner, you only need up to a Gb of swap though most probably
[02:02] <PriceChild> just to be safe
[02:02] <Goooner> Oh, okies
[02:02] <Goooner> Thanks man
[02:02] <SmashCat> Anlar: Yeah, I meant the kernel, not nvidia ;-) Sucks - no wonder people say Linux isn't ready for the desktop - if my Windows machine dropped to text mode after an update I'd throw a fit!
[02:02] <Oliazk> seems to be some packet loss for some reason
[02:02] <Goooner> Sorry for spamming you
[02:03] <Oliazk> trying to ping google anyway
[02:03] <fr500_> Goooner: setting /home in amother partition is a good idea tho
[02:03] <taime1> is there a good docker for ubuntu?
[02:03] <fr500_> docker?
[02:03] <PriceChild> Goooner, when you install windows, make sure you use fat32 if possible instead of ntfs
[02:03] <gottatrieit> fr500: That's what I want to do, can you give me some advice?
[02:04] <Goooner> What file system to use for swap partition?
[02:04] <PriceChild> Goooner, swap
[02:04] <theron> evening all.  I'm trying to help fix a friends ubuntu computer remotely.  I've asked my friend to enable remote desktop sharing.  I can connect to the remote desktop, I can see the screen paint and the mouse cursor move, however there is no screen refresh.  Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this?
[02:04] <Goooner> Ah! FOund it!
[02:04] <yugi> Seveas, it didnt work
[02:04] <psycardis> is anyone familiar with pulseaudio?
[02:04] <ldz420> but it be better to drop the error in a ubuntu fourm or php forum?
[02:04] <taime1> theron: is he using beryl?
[02:05] <Devo> How do I get the GTK+ library? Do I use apt-get install?
[02:05] <theron> taime1: he's using compiz
[02:05] <taime1> theron: thats it
[02:05] <taime1> theron: he needs to turn it off and use metacity
[02:05] <fr500_> gottatrieit: basically you need about 10-20gb max for the os
[02:05] <theron> taime1: really? that simple?  will do.....
[02:05] <PriceChild> Devo, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0
[02:05] <fr500_> gottatrieit: so do a partition about that size with mount point /
[02:05] <taime1> theron: 3d window managers dont work over vnc
[02:06] <Devo> PriceChild: If I do that will I be able to use GTK+ functions in my C programs?
[02:06] <fr500_> gottatrieit: do a swap partition of about 1gb and the rest an ext partition with mount point /home
[02:06] <gottatrieit> fr500: I've got a 40gb hd on the machine I want to resize on.
[02:06] <PriceChild> Devo, hopefully
[02:06] <fr500_> taime1: you need xvnc and disable xdamage extension
[02:06] <taime1> i see
[02:06] <fr500_> gottatrieit: resize? windows?
[02:06] <Devo> PriceChild: What does the sudo mean? Why not just apt-get?
[02:06] <taime1> well, this is a quick fix for his application
[02:07] <Oliazk> crud i hat packet loss
[02:07] <fr500_> taime1: but performance suffers a lot
[02:07] <PriceChild> !sudo | Devo
[02:07] <ubotu> Devo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:07] <theron> taime1: are they developing remote viewers that do?
[02:07] <buntunub> hi im trying to install xubuntu on an old laptop and whenever i load up the cd it seems to lockup at the point where the desktop loads any help?
[02:07] <Devo> PriceChild: Thanks.
[02:07] <elite101> the new ubuntu? Ubuntu 8.06 - Haughty Husky
[02:07] <gottatrieit> fr500: No, ubunut 6.06. I've got it all setup, but I want to repartition /home to a sererate partition.
[02:07] <DARKGuy> guys..
[02:07] <taime1> theron: fr500_ said that you can use xvnc without the xdamage option
[02:07] <theron> taime1: got in all is working, thanks
[02:07] <fr500_> theron: you need xvnc and disable the damage extension
[02:07] <Oliazk> well kmak i am experiencing 33% packet loss or more
[02:07] <kaveh> i root@kaveh-laptop:/home/kaveh# ifconfig eth1 up
[02:07] <kaveh> SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[02:07] <elite101> is there a 8.06 ubuntu commingout? : Ubuntu 8.06 - Haughty Husky
[02:07] <yugi> can anyone help me.i am change my ATI x300 VGA to and EVGA 8600 gt and my only issue is  X server
[02:07] <BigMac> Hey, how can I change the network ubuntu initially tries to connect to on start up?
[02:07] <theron> fr500_: thanks.
[02:08] <Flannel> buntunub: try the alternate CD
[02:08] <taime1> theron: but i would rather use metacity over vnc anyways
[02:08] <fr500_> gottatrieit: hmm best way should be to use gparted i guess
[02:08] <Flannel> elite101: no.  It'll be 8.04, and yes, it will most likely be H H, but it might be I I
[02:08] <kaveh> any one can tell me what is wrogng?
[02:08] <buntunub> alternate cd?
[02:08] <fr500_> get the gparted live cd
[02:08] <kmak> Oliazk: Isn't wireless just a fucking joy :-)
[02:08] <elite101> mhm
[02:08] <buntunub> is that an internet install cd?
[02:08] <Flannel> buntunub: yeah.  Its instead of the DEsktop CD, which is a liveCD, the alternate CD drops you straight into an installer
[02:08] <Oliazk> kmak: only with this damn card it is
[02:08] <Flannel> buntunub: no, but there's an internet install CD too
[02:08] <kmak> Oliazk: maybe check your routing (route -n) make sure everything is correct
[02:08] <gottatrieit> I've downloaded a tutorial to do it, but it skips the part of resizing the partitions. How is that done?
[02:08] <buntunub> i see Flannel
[02:08] <theron> taime1: I just want him to see what I'm doing so as I talk to him, he can understand and do it next time :)
[02:08] <kaveh> some one pl
[02:09] <BigMac> Hey, how can I change the network ubuntu initially tries to connect to on start up?
[02:09] <Oliazk> kmak the laptop i am using right now is having no problems what so ever and it can only use wifi but its madwifi
[02:09] <buntunub> my only problem with that is limited insternet access right now
[02:09] <nickrud> Flannel, why would it skip H?
[02:09] <DARKGuy> Hey guys, could anybody help me set up internet sharing through my wireless card to my laptop? I know I have to use firestarter but I don't know how to set up both computers.
[02:09] <Flannel> nickrud: because of Hoary
[02:09] <taime1> theron: man i do exactly that literaly everyday for my buds
[02:09] <yugi> i am having trouble with my X server
[02:09] <DerangedDingo> BigMac: System > Administration > Network, right?
[02:09] <elite101> wow it must get pretty flooded in here u have like 1076 ppl in here xD
[02:09] <nickrud> Flannel, ah.
[02:09] <Meroigo-laptop> Is there a way to start Remote Desktop before a user has logged in? it's annoying when I have rebooted the server because of an update, via VNC on another computer, then the server restarts but I can't connect again... I must connect a keyboard and maybe a screen if I want too see what I type, to the server, and login with my user. THEN the Remote Desktop service starts...
[02:09] <BigMac> DerangedDingo: Then?
[02:10] <Flannel> nickrud: no idea if they will or not.  But we were wondering if they would skip G too, because of grumpy.  But H is more likely (however small) because it's a real release.  I doubt they will skip it though.
[02:10] <fr500_> gottatrieit: you can't resize mounted partitions
[02:10] <frederific> I've put my old ubuntu server HDD into a new machine (the old one died on me), and the network card isn't working. It works if I boot off the liveCD, and I know it needs the tg3 driver module (which is loaded). How do I tell ubuntu to use the tg3 module?
[02:10] <gottatrieit> fr500: I've got gparted, but I can't get it to work. Do I have to shut down completely, then reboot? It doesn't work if I just reboot. I can't open up any of the menu to resize the hard disk.
[02:10] <JDLimbo> ./autogen is giving me an error message
[02:10] <kmak> Oliazk: gotta run...best wishes!
[02:10] <DerangedDingo> BigMac: I'd assume you'd just check the box next to the network you'd like
[02:11] <gottatrieit> Oh! So I would have to do a complete re-install then?
[02:11] <Oliazk> k thn
[02:11] <fr500_> gottatrieit: you can resize
[02:11] <nickrud> Flannel, if they were to be consistent, they'd need to fill the gaps before moving on :)
[02:11] <fr500_> get the gparted live cd
[02:11] <JDLimbo> ubotu pastebin?
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebin? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <fr500_> and boot from the cd
[02:11] <Oliazk> any one know what the command to start wicd is? cause i been using a link
[02:11] <theron> score one for the ubuntu channel, next question.......  When the live cd ran, it detected a wireless device that required a restricted module.    after installation, that isn't an option now in the restricted drivers window, how do I rescan my sytem to check for hardware using ubuntu tools?
[02:11] <JDLimbo> !pastebin | JDLimbo
[02:11] <msalacain> gottatrieit, are you running gparted as root? (sudo gparted)
[02:11] <theron> or and it worked on the live cd as well.
[02:12] <gottatrieit> No, just inserting the cd and rebooting that way.
[02:12] <DARKGuy> Hey guys, could anybody help me set up internet sharing through my wireless card to my laptop? I know I have to use firestarter but I don't know how to set up both computers.
[02:12] <Rafa> hola a todos
[02:12] <Flannel> nickrud: right.  That's what I'm thinking.  If they go from G to I, it'll cause more issues than just duplicating H
[02:12] <taime1> Rafa: hola
[02:12] <Rafa> hola hermano taimel
[02:12] <fr500_> gottatrieit: ?
[02:12] <gottatrieit> Yes, fr?
[02:13] <nickrud> Flannel, as long as they pick a decent adjective, I don't really care what order. Consistency, little minds, all that.
[02:13] <yugi> Seveas, it didn't work
[02:13] <southafrikanse> hello. Is there anyway to reinstall Xorg from the beginning?
[02:13] <kaveh> some one help me plz ---->http://rafb.net/p/GfmzIc42.html
[02:13] <afaik> oh not good
[02:13] <PriceChild> southafrikanse, why'd you want to do that?
[02:13] <fr500_> gottatrieit: will you get gparted
[02:13] <PriceChild> southafrikanse, reinstalling doesn't reset your configurations
[02:13] <afaik> video looked perfect on the live CD.. I just installed and now it's all funky looking
[02:13] <taime1> southafrikanse: you can reconfigure it

[02:15] <southafrikanse> PriceChild, I installed compiz-fusion, when I restarted X it went to the command type and I could not start again. I reconfigured Xorg by always pressing OK
[02:15] <fr500_> gottatrieit: no
[02:15] <fr500_> gottatrieit: there is another distro called gparted live cd
[02:16] <frederific> How do I tell ubuntu to use the tg3 module (I've changed NIC)?
[02:16] <fr500_> gottatrieit: google for it and download the cd and burn it
[02:16] <RancidLM> nickrud: Linux 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP
[02:16] <fr500_> gottatrieit: then boot from there
[02:16] <afaik> where van I modify the number of colors used by X without being forced to edit the config????
[02:16] <nickrud> RancidLM, yeah, I realized what you were really asking and have nothing worth saying about it, sorry

[02:21] <theron> When running the live cd, the restriced modules app successfully discovered and allowed me to configure my wireless card.  I was hardwired at the time however when I ran the installation.   Upon rebooting after installation, my wireless card is not detected in the restricted modules app. is there a way to rerun the detection piece of that app?

[02:24] <yugi> Pelo, Package `xserver-xor' is not installed and no info is available.

[02:24] <yugi> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: xserver-xor is not installed

[02:26] <frederific> How do I tell ubuntu to use the tg3 module for eth0? (I've changed NIC)
[02:26] <Flannel> Devo: it doesn't matter, it's in the path.

[02:27] <fr500_> gottatrieit: no
[02:27] <tjedi> ok
[02:27] <afaik> any reason I cant just run terminal even?

[02:27] <yugi> Pelo, Users of PowerPC machines, and users of any computer with multiple video

[02:27] <DerangedDingo> BigMac: yea?
[02:28] <southafrikanse> Pelo, why?
[02:28] <gottatrieit> fr500: Yes, that is the one I've got  on a disk, version 3.something.
[02:28] <Pelo> southafrikanse,  intel is vga I beleive
[02:28] <Devo> Flannel: What path?
[02:28] <Oliazk> question -- anyone use the rt2500 card and experience packet loss?
[02:28] <SmashCat> ls
[02:28] <Anlar> southafrikanse: it's Intel. :) entirely its own thing. :) and quite good.
[02:29] <gottatrieit> fr500: I've tried that. Once it boots up, I've tried  to enter the menus at the top of the screen, but they are all greyed out.

[02:29] <Pelo> yugi,  if you don'T know pick the provided default
[02:29] <southafrikanse> Anlar, but Xorg doesn't have Intel as an option
[02:29] <gottatrieit> fr500: Do I highlight the partition I want to change first?
[02:29] <barata> anybody uses loquendo

[02:31] <SmashCat> Think I'm going to try bulding the kernel from source, then building the official Nvidia drivers against it to see if it's Ubuntu's screw-up, or the 2.6.20 kernel
[02:31] <gottatrieit> fr500: I've got to go. The wife is nagging me to take my medication. lol (she's driving me batty!) Thank you  for you help.
[02:31] <tonyyarusso> nickrud: pretty much right on - the italicized part is even better.
[02:31] <jamie> Please has anyone got skype working with pulse. I have tried padsp skype? No joy just sees the sound card in the sever.
[02:32] <yugi> Pelo, For the X server to handle the keyboard correctly, a keyboard layout

[02:32] <SirBob1701> how do you enable xgl in the nvidia 100.14.11 drivers on a desktop?
[02:32] <Pelo> yugi,  what ever you are using,
[02:32] <Evilbadwrong> How do I give myself permission to extract a zip file to a directory?
[02:32] <tonyyarusso> SirBob1701: #ubuntu-xgl
[02:33] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, sudo; but where what and where?
[02:33] <theron> ok what's the quickest way to determine what wireless card is in a computer, but dosen't have modules built for it?
[02:33] <superkirbyartist> If I uncheck "Access external storage devices automatically" from user privileges, the user has no way of accessing them?
[02:33] <Evilbadwrong> So I would just put sudo in front of the path to the directory in the terminal?
[02:34] <superkirbyartist> Guys?
[02:34] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, sudo is the first word in the command; it elevates the rest of the command to sudo privileges; I'll send a link
[02:34] <yugi> Pelo,  X.Org server modules that should be loaded by default:
[02:34] <nickrud> !sudo > Evilbadwrong
[02:34] <Evilbadwrong> Thank you, nickrud
[02:34] <Pelo> yugi, yes
[02:34] <SmashCat> SirBob1701: You have to build the kernel from source I think (Ubuntu probably don't supply the source of the exact kernel you're using), then just run the installer. That's what I'm doing at the moment, as the Ubuntu Nvidia installer is broken.
[02:34] <sk0t> question for anyone, my friend has a dual boot xp and ubuntu... when he restarts to go into Ubuntu from XP, his network card doesnt find the connection... but if he shutdown, and waits for a minute, he can boot into ubuntu and use the network fine... any ideas
[02:35] <superkirbyartist> Guys?
[02:35] <Devo> How do you search for files?
[02:35] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, be very cautious about untarring a file into a place that requires admin privs, you should probably ask about it
[02:35] <SirBob1701> SmashCat: actually i think i need to nvidia-xconfig --composite --render-accel --allow-glx-with-composite --add-argb-glx-visuals
[02:35] <sk0t> Devo, you can use 'locate filename' in terminal
[02:35] <superkirbyartist> DO YOU NEED SUDO PRIVILEGES TO MOUNT AN EXTERNAL STORAGE DEVICE?
[02:35] <Pici> !caps | superkirbyartist
[02:35] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, sometimes wwe don't know or we missed the question,  goign guys does nothing
[02:35] <ubotu> superkirbyartist: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:35] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, yes
[02:36] <Devo> sk0t: Thanks.
[02:36] <Evilbadwrong> nickrud: I'm trying to install the patch for open arena, but it won't let me extract it to the Open Arena directory.
[02:36] <sk0t> Devo, no problem.
[02:36] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  you need sudo tomount anyting that is not usb
[02:36] <astro76> sk0t, I know XP and linux do different restarts, I notice with XP the memory check doesn't come up, whereas with linux it does
[02:36] <SirBob1701> testin
[02:36] <astro76> sk0t, so maybe windows is doing something funky to the card and not fully restarting it
[02:36] <superkirbyartist> Pelo, how do you block usb storage devices?
[02:36] <sk0t> astro76, do you think there is an option for that or something?
[02:36] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, is this something you need to compile? That is, do the instructions include the word   make   in them?
[02:37] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, not sure , check in the forum , or maybe you need to make a group for it
[02:37] <Devo> Should my GTK+ library be located in /usr/include/gtk ???
[02:37] <astro76> sk0t, I'm thinking you might just have to shutdown then power back up when going from windows (I doubt the wait was necessary)
[02:37] <Evilbadwrong> nickrud: No...it's a .pak file that the instructions say just to place in the base Open Arena directory.
[02:37] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, ok, that's a relief :)
[02:38] <Evilbadwrong> nickrud: So, theoretically I can just sudo the path to the directory and then extract, yes?
[02:38] <SirBob1701> not that
[02:38] <sk0t> astro76, I will have him do that... I am not sure his issue, I am a relative Ubuntu n00b, so I am still learning myself...
[02:38] <xalspaero> oh hey, im a ubunutu noob:  I somehow managed to kill the bar at the top of the screen
[02:38] <xalspaero> nay idea how to get it back?
[02:38] <Rick1> anyone help me out with ubuntu 7.04?
[02:38] <xalspaero> anay*
[02:38] <xalspaero> any*
[02:38] <Pelo> xalspaero,  right click the bar at the bottom  add a new pannel, move it to the top ,  right lcick on it , add to pannel and add the stuff you want to it
[02:38] <Pelo> Rick1,  we need specific quesitons
[02:39] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, the easiest way would be cd <pathtoopenarena>   then sudo unzip <pathtopatch>
[02:39] <Rick1> well I have it all installed on my hard drive when when i go to run it i get this
[02:39] <Rick1> VFS: Cannot open root device "hda4" or unknown-block(0,0)
[02:39] <Rick1> Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unkown-block(0,0)
[02:39] <Evilbadwrong> nickrud: Ahhh...ok. Thank you!
[02:39] <superkirbyartist> Guys, can I change applications, such as Terminal or Firefox, to require administrative privileges?
[02:39] <Pelo> Rick1,  you need to install again I think , kernel panick is not good
[02:39] <nickrud> Evilbadwrong, np :)
[02:39] <Rick1> I've installed it several times now
[02:40] <xalspaero> very nice
[02:40] <xalspaero> thanks
[02:40] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  will anyone be allowed to use this computer ?
[02:40] <xalspaero> pelo
[02:40] <Pelo> xalspaero,  no problem
[02:41] <Meroigo-laptop> I cannot use a VNC client to control my server when no one has logged on to the server.
[02:41] <Floid> Is there a recent overview of what one should expect to work/be broken on amd64?
[02:41] <superkirbyartist> Pelo, the guest account cannot mount usb/cd/floppies/etc., cannot browse Internet, cannot use terminal, cannot use modem.  Only Rhythmbox and games.
[02:41] <Pelo> Floid,   flash, nvidia and ati drivers and java6 apparently
[02:41] <Meroigo-laptop> That's pretty stupid if I had uplated it that needed reboot, and want to controll it again :/ then i must insert a keyboard and screen (if i want to see what im typing) int he server.
[02:42] <Devo> When I try to install GTK+ with apt-get it tells me this "libgtk2.0-0 is already the newest version."
[02:42] <Meroigo-laptop> can you make Remote Desktop be enabled when no one has logged in?
[02:42] <aidan>  /lastlog aidan
[02:42] <aidan> odd
[02:42] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  I'm not to hot on permission stuff,  searching inthe forum would probably give you loads of info
[02:42] <Geek_> Meroigo-laptop: thats the nature of VNC. i'd suggest SSH(cli) or FreeNX (graphical) to fo it
[02:42] <Curs0r> where can I get more fortune modules?
[02:42] <Geek_> *do
[02:42] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, what groups does your guest account belong to?
[02:43] <superkirbyartist> The proprietary games are Veggietales Dance x3 and Dance Praise.  Open source games include StepMania, Planetpenguin-Racer and others.  And the jukebox is self-explanatory.
[02:43] <Pelo> Curs0r,  fortune website
[02:43] <superkirbyartist> Nickrud, I don't know.  Not sudo.
[02:43] <Meroigo-laptop> thanks i'll try freenx out..
[02:43] <Curs0r> ty
[02:43] <Devo> What does "libgtk2.0-0 is already the newest version." mean?
[02:43] <Floid> Hmm, I guess the next question is 'how painful is it to switch to 64-bit on an existing 32-bit installation?'
[02:43] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, do groups as yourself, and groups as your guest. Compare
[02:44] <Pelo> Devo,  means that you it won't let you install it again unless you force it
[02:44] <superkirbyartist> Nickrud, is unchecking "Enable automatic mount of external storage" enough?
[02:44] <Pelo> Floid,  it's a clean install
[02:44] <Devo> Pelo: So that means I already have it? Where do I find it?
[02:44] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, usermod -G group1,group2,group3 guest will add your guest to those groups
[02:44] <Pelo> Devo,  you already have it  , it is being used,  why do you need to find it ?
[02:45] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, not unless your guest belongs to the plugdev group as well
[02:45] <HHP2K> Hey guys, I installed a little mod to firefox through the terminal that made the radio buttons look better in ubuntu. But it's broken firefox somewhat, making text overflow beyond its borders (in the GUI) and not modifying cursors when the mouse hovers over text boxes and such. I'm running ubuntu 7.04, do I need to modify something or just uninstall firefox?
[02:45] <xalspaero> does ubuntu come with gcc tools bundled?
[02:45] <Meroigo-laptop> i have no sound card in my server so when I for example do a gksudo gedit <file> in the terminal, many errors from ALSA... :/ i still can do the stuff I want to, but it's pretty annoying.
[02:45] <xalspaero> i mean, can you compile c/c++ code with ubuntu right "out of the box"
[02:45] <Meroigo-laptop> can I like disable all sound related things in the system? :S
[02:46] <Pelo> xalspaero,  sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:46] <Meroigo-laptop> i tried disable sound.. and i tried uninstall ALSA with synaptic but then like 300 MB of ubuntu-desktop was removed XD
[02:46] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, he needs to be in these groups at a minimum, and the names tell you why :) dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev scanner netdev
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> All right.
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> We'll try things out.
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> Nickrud, can I make a file require sudo privileges?
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> Such as, the terminal?
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> And the menu editor?
[02:46] <superkirbyartist> Why?
[02:46] <HHP2K> !enter | superkirbyartist
[02:46] <ubotu> superkirbyartist: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:47] <SirBob1701> anyone else using the nvidia 100.14.11 drivers?
[02:47] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, so he can use the modem (dialout) the cdrom (cdrom) pluggable devices (plugdev) etc
[02:47] <Pelo> Meroigo-laptop,  ubuntu-desktop is jsut a meta package used for installation,  everyting is it,s dependency, removing it does nothing
[02:47] <superkirbyartist> HHP2K what do you mean?
[02:47] <superkirbyartist> Nickrud, I don't want him to use it, so I don't add him in those groups?
[02:47] <superkirbyartist> And for what he can do, I add him in that group?
[02:48] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, exactly, that's how you control what people can do on your computer.
[02:48] <Meroigo-laptop> nevermind that. gedit, openoffice and a million other things blahablaha was removed when I on some alsa packet selected to remove all...
[02:48] <Goooner> Should the swap part have the same mount point as ext3?
[02:48] <HHP2K> superkirbyartist: Don't

[02:48] <HHP2K> this
[02:48] <HHP2K> all
[02:48] <superkirbyartist> NickRud, Thank you?
[02:48] <HHP2K> the

[02:48] <superkirbyartist> NickRud, Thank you!
[02:48] <HHP2K> keep it on one line
[02:48] <superkirbyartist> Sorry
[02:48] <superkirbyartist> man
[02:48] <superkirbyartist> Just kidding!  '-'
[02:49] <HHP2K> :P
[02:49] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, you haven't gone back to windows yet?
[02:49] <nickrud> superkirbyartist, heh, I liked the question mark!
[02:49] <Pelo> Goooner,  swap as no mount poing
[02:49] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, no.
[02:49] <Goooner> Oki thx
[02:49] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, that's unfortunate
[02:49] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, you like windows?
[02:49] <ConstyXIV> does amarok have DAAP support?
[02:50] <superkirbyartist> Amarok supports oggs, mp3s and dvds.
[02:50] <superkirbyartist> Ask in #kde and #kubuntu
[02:50] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, no but its like when you are trying to convince people to join your side and then a stupid obnoxious idiot joins your side and you would just rather have him on the other side even though your goal was to convince people to come to your side, you know what I mean?
[02:50] <Lunis> does anyone know how to disable an onscreen keyboard called "Keyboard" in xfce?
[02:50] <bruenig> Lunis, I have never seen this "Keyboard" and have been using xfce for quite some time
[02:51] <bruenig> Lunis, how to launch it?
[02:51] <superkirbyartist> And my (apparent) side is?
[02:51] <Lunis> bruenig, have your cat step on your keyboard... that's how i launched it, or rather that'
[02:51] <Lunis> that's how my cat did
[02:51] <theron> When running the live cd, the restriced modules app successfully discovered and allowed me to configure my wireless card.  I was hardwired at the time however when I ran the installation.   Upon rebooting after installation, my wireless card is not detected in the restricted modules app. is there a way to rerun the detection piece of that app?
[02:51] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  don'T feed the bruenig
[02:51] <superkirbyartist> Pelo, what's wrong?
[02:52] <m0u5e> anyone know how to add the debian repos?
[02:52] <m0u5e> i want to get audacious 1.3.2 and its proving to be near impossible to find
[02:52] <superkirbyartist> Anyone knows what songs are on life?
[02:52] <astro76> m0u5e, that's not something you want to do
[02:52] <ShockSMX> if i install ubuntu using "guided - use entire disk" for partitioning, will that kill my xp install or be able to dual boot?
[02:52] <m0u5e> astro76: why not?
[02:53] <HHP2K> ShockSMX: probably kill windows.
[02:53] <SirBob1701> are the nvidia 100.14.11 drivers crap?
[02:53] <ShockSMX> so i have to go with Manual?
[02:53] <astro76> m0u5e, any repo you add needs to be specifically for your version of ubuntu
[02:53] <Devo> How come I can't write to /usr/include ?
[02:53] <ShockSMX> or Guided - use largest continuous free space
[02:53] <HHP2K> ShockSMX: latter sounds good
[02:53] <superkirbyartist> m0u5e: sudo apt-get install your-mom
[02:53] <superkirbyartist> m0u5e, that's a joke.
[02:53] <Pelo> ShockSMX, if you use the entire disk , the whole disk will be whiped clean before installsing, any data or os will be lost
[02:53] <HHP2K> ShockSMX: but it might restrict the amount of space XP gets after.
[02:53] <bruenig> m0u5e, you don't want to do that because you don't know what dependencies audacious is being compiled against
[02:53] <ShockSMX> Pelo: thanks.
[02:54] <superkirbyartist> What songs can you find in life?
[02:54] <ShockSMX> eh, it's failing to partition it, so Guided doesn't owrk
[02:54] <ShockSMX> work
[02:54] <HHP2K> ShockSMX: It's probably best if you set the parameters youself
[02:54] <Blauhaut> Guys how can i run my example.c file ?
[02:54] <bruenig> m0u5e, you may not have the right versions or whatnot installed and you get into dependency hell as they call it
[02:54] <ShockSMX> via Manual?
[02:54] <bruenig> Blauhaut, gcc example.c, then ./a.out
[02:54] <Pelo> ShockSMX,  step back to the desktop and make your own partitons before proceeding to the instalation,   menu
[02:54] <Devo> Blauhaut: gcc example.c
[02:54] <ShockSMX> Pelo: thanks
[02:54] <Pelo>  ShockSMX  menu > system > admin > gnome partiton editor
[02:54] <superkirbyartist> What songs are in life?
[02:55] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, what are you talknig about ?
[02:55] <ShockSMX> thanks
[02:55] <Devo> Why can't I write to /usr/include ???
[02:55] <bruenig> Devo, you can as root
[02:55] <Pelo> Devo,  it's root access
[02:55] <Devo> Pelo: How do I get root acces?
[02:55] <HHP2K> Pelo: I think superkirbyartist is having a profound moment. :P
[02:55] <Poromenos1> How can I change my computer's domain name?
[02:55] <Pelo> Devo,  prefix your command with sudo

[02:55] <superkirbyartist> HHP2K, what exactly do you mean?
[02:55] <hypo> Hi, I'm trying to view this video http://8.7.97.206/070313_smartpower_1.wvx but I can't seem to get it to work in the browser.  Anyone have experience viewing these Microsoft encoded streams?
[02:56] <PanicByte> Devo, you can also type "su -"
[02:56] <bruenig> superkirbyartist is jut being his usual obnoxious self, pretty soon he will accuse you of virusing him or something equally inane
[02:56] <Pelo> HHP2K,  I think he's having a seizure
[02:56] <HHP2K> superkirbyartist: "What songs are in life" is a rather profound question XD
[02:56] <spanglesontoast> anyone know how to fix this error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:56] <HHP2K> Pelo: That's a possibility
[02:56] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, it's not nice to tell people to sudo rm -r *.*
[02:56] <Oliazk> question is there any way to make the desktop icons smaller?
[02:56] <bruenig> !find libdbus-1.so.0
[02:56] <ubotu> Package/file libdbus-1.so.0 does not exist in feisty
[02:56] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, it's rude to tell people to sudo rm -r *.*
[02:56] <HHP2K> superkirbyartist: Ooh ohh! That command is especially useful on a large server terminal =D
[02:56] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, do locate libdbus
[02:57] <superkirbyartist> DO NOT PM BRUENIG!
[02:57] <Pelo> spanglesontoast,  open synaptic , search for dbus  see what's installed
[02:57] <m0u5e> :(
[02:57] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, that command doesn't even do anything
[02:57] <spanglesontoast> it has it bru
[02:57] <test> anyone know which installation of ubuntu have native support for wpa already installed in it?
[02:57] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, unless you are in the home directory and even then it just resets app specific configuration
[02:57] <ShockSMX> i guess i can't resize a partition if it's mounted?
[02:57] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, but done anywhere else on the filesystem it is pointless
[02:57] <Pelo> m0u5e,  sorry, ifyou are getting lost in this sillyness , just ask your question again periodicaly
[02:57] <astro76> test, the latest does, 7.04
[02:58] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, what does it say?
[02:58] <HHP2K> ShockSMX: Probably not :P
[02:58] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, you gave me a command which WIPED my Ubuntu!  :@
[02:58] <Pelo> ShockSMX,  no you can'T you need to unmount it
[02:58] <test> thx so much
[02:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, no you mistyped a command because you are not very bright
[02:58] <ShockSMX> heh heh

[02:59] <sfire> I have 2 internet connections.. One direct ethernet straight to a cable modem (no router) and one via the neighbors wireless.. can anyone tell me how to get them to work together.. for some reason right now when I connect to both it always uses the wireless
[02:59] <nickrud> Pelo, general silliness, bordering on snarkiness
[02:59] <m0u5e> Pelo: oh lol no, i was just asking where i could get audacious 1.3.2 :(

[03:03] <sketchi> iam using windows atm
[03:03] <nickrud> spanglesontoast, what are you trying to run?
[03:03] <micahbell> hey guys - i am getting a bug in firefox when watching flash videos, and i want to know if its common
[03:03] <spanglesontoast> it's called skypemate and it's an executable
[03:03] <floppyears> thanks Pici
[03:03] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, oh its binary only isn't it
[03:03] <Pici> micahbell: Whats up?
[03:04] <spanglesontoast> yea
[03:04] <Pelo> sketchi,  you need to go in  ubuntu then
[03:04] <sketchi> can you tell me how to do it in windows ?
[03:04] <micahbell> when i am watching a video if I hit "back" in the browser it completly freezes. it sometimes does this even if i stop the video first
[03:04] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, yeah it was compiled against a previous version of libdbus, you can try to do: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3 /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.0
[03:04] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, might be able to use the new one if you link it
[03:04] <spanglesontoast> ok
[03:04] <Pelo> back in about 30 min , later folks
[03:05] <spanglesontoast> yay
[03:05] <Pici> micahbell: Yeah, flash in general isnt really stable on linux. Unfortunately, this is a known problem.
[03:05] <spanglesontoast> oh
[03:05] <Devo> What's the console command to unpack a .tar file?
[03:05] <micahbell> so going back to an older version of firefox wouldnt fix this?
[03:05] <spanglesontoast> ran for a little bru then died
[03:05] <bruenig> Devo, tar xf whatever.tar
[03:05] <nickrud> Devo, tar xf
[03:05] <Pici> Devo: tar -xvf file.tar
[03:05] <Devo> Lol.
[03:05] <Devo> Thank you.
[03:05] <kruck> I don't suppose anyone knows how to install GAIM-Xfire to Pidgin in Windows, or even if it can be done?
[03:05] <PanicByte> wow, i just realized something, there are no ops in this irc channel
[03:05] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, yeah well not much you can do if it is binary only
[03:06] <HHP2K> PanicByte: I was wondering that, actually
[03:06] <bruenig> PanicByte, they are there they are just not +o
[03:06] <Pici> kruck: ##windows for Windows support pleaes
[03:06] <PanicByte> oh
[03:06] <spanglesontoast> X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 169
[03:06] <Pici> PanicByte: Too much attention if they are +o
[03:06] <kruck> cheers, you don't know off hand if it can be done though do you?
[03:06] <nickrud> undercover ops
[03:06] <spanglesontoast> yea looks like it doesn't like me
[03:06] <HHP2K> bruenig: What are those different modes, anyway? (IRC noob)
[03:06] <spanglesontoast> was made for fedora 3 though
[03:06] <bruenig> HHP2K, I only know a few myself but +o would be op and -o would deop
[03:07] <rob> guys, this channel is really for ubuntu help, other discussion should be done in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:07] <bruenig> HHP2K, they just +o before they do any op stuff
[03:07] <m0u5e> bruenig: tried that, didnt work
[03:07] <bruenig> m0u5e, tried compiling?
[03:07] <JDLimbo> can anyone help me get the s-video out to my tv working?
[03:07] <m0u5e> bruenig: yeah, i could install audacious fine, but not the additional plugins and codecs
[03:08] <HHP2K> bruenig: Oh, I see.
[03:08] <JDLimbo> please?
[03:08] <soc> hi
[03:08] <m0u5e> bruenig: and i had to install a bunch of random deps, it was not fun
[03:08] <NelsonUWP> hey guys, is there a way to fix my sound being like a half a second off of the video?
[03:08] <sketchi> uhm and i need help installing a new hardrive
[03:08] <sketchi> help
[03:08] <soc> i get an grub error 22 if i plug in a additional harddrive
[03:08] <Devo> Do I have to manually put the gtk folder in /usr/include to use gtk functions?
[03:08] <bruenig> m0u5e, yeah debian/ubuntu has this weird practice where they split headers and stuff so compiling never is much fun, I think they do it so that it looks like they have twice as many packages as they actually do
[03:09] <spanglesontoast> what's the package thing to change an rpm to deb ?
[03:09] <larson9999> is there a program that lets you convert video to smv?
[03:09] <soc> as long as there is only one ide harddrive everyhing is ok
[03:09] <kruck> nelson, if you are using videolan player there is an advanced option to allow you to manually sync the audio to the video
[03:09] <larson9999> spanglesontoast, alien
[03:09] <bruenig> spanglesontoast, alien, but use with caution and only where source isn't available
[03:09] <kruck> unsure where it is however
[03:09] <soc> as soon as i connect the second one, it doesn't work anymore
[03:09] <spanglesontoast> yup
[03:09] <spanglesontoast> it ain't :D
[03:09] <sketchi> soc
[03:09] <sketchi> are you installing another hardrive
[03:09] <sketchi> and cant ?
[03:09] <m0u5e> bruenig :(
[03:10] <NelsonUWP> kruck, thanks ill find it... much appreciated
[03:10] <nickrud> Devo, no, the package  ibgtk2.0-dev the includes will go where they need to be
[03:10] <soc> i just connected a harddrive to the power and the ide cable
[03:10] <soc> and when i boot up my pc after that i get an grub 22 error
[03:10] <nickrud> Devo, um install the package libgtk2.0-dev, wicked bad cut and paste above
[03:10] <HHP2K> Hey guys, what would the command be to uninstall firefox?
[03:11] <soc> can somebody help me?
[03:12] <spanglesontoast> could be beryl crashing it bru weird as it sounds
[03:12] <jetscreamer> no
[03:12] <DrHalan> what packet handles .bin installation files?
[03:12] <Pici> DrHalan: None.
[03:12] <nickrud> m0u5e, debian/ubuntu has this great tool, apt-get build-dep, which pulls in dependent development files; try it on audacious
[03:12] <Pici> DrHalan: You'll need to chmod +x file.bin  then: sudo ./file.bin
[03:12] <jetscreamer> ./blah.bin
[03:12] <kruck> soc, I'm pretty sure that you can fix it if you change boot priority in the BIOS
[03:12] <Notsquee> Is Pelo here?
[03:12] <jetscreamer> what he said
[03:13] <nickrud> Notsquee, he'll be back fairly soon
[03:13] <JDLimbo> nobody
[03:13] <kruck> soc, what I'm thinking is that when you plug in the other drive, it is taking priority over the other one, and so giving the Grub 22 error
[03:13] <Notsquee> Okay, thanks, nickrud
[03:13] <spanglesontoast> brb
[03:13] <kruck> which i got after i install windows over ubuntu by accident, leading me to be unable to boot anything, just a guess though
[03:14] <GrooveStix> hey folks
[03:14] <kahrytan> nickrud, bad monitor?
[03:14] <kahrytan> nickrud, or bad vcard?
[03:15] <Goooner> Trying to get my wireless to work.
[03:15] <floppyears> Pici: but how do I pick the theme or image ?
[03:15] <kruck> goodnight everyone
[03:15] <GrooveStix> I connected an old 20 gig HDD (as a slave) and it's not recognized in Ubuntu
[03:15] <GrooveStix> what to do?
[03:15] <nickrud> kahrytan, no, some weird acpi thing, it happened for a while, then stopped, now it's doing it again. Just gotta touch a mouse
[03:15] <Korbin> Today I Installed 7.04 and everything went fine, however, when I rebooted the computer It got through POST like normal but after that It just displays "Grub _" and stays there.
[03:16] <floppyears> How do I pick the themes or images to be used by usplash
[03:16] <nickrud> kahrytan, better not be hardware, I didn't by the extended warranty on this laptop :)
[03:16] <kahrytan> !usplash
[03:16] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[03:16] <kruck> korbin, that happens to me sometimes. Solution is to unplug any external USB drives for me
[03:16] <kahrytan> nickrud, Not hard to repair
[03:16] <kruck> although you may not have the same problem
[03:17] <HHP2K> Hey guys, how do I uninstall firefox from the terminal? What's the command?
[03:17] <stains> sudo apt-get remove firefox
[03:18] <tempt_> how do i get gij to work with java applets? (i'd like to play yahoo! games)
[03:18] <HHP2K> Thanks stains :)
[03:18] <kahrytan> HHP2K, You have to remove other meta packages that relyon firefox too
[03:18] <HHP2K> Oh, I'll be reinstalling it
[03:18] <HHP2K> I just added something to it today that broke it.
[03:18] <nickrud> tempt_, install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugins, then sudo update-alternatives --config java and pick sun
[03:19] <kahrytan> HHP2K, what you add to it?
[03:19] <kitche> tempt_: gij doesn't have a plugn
[03:19] <larson9999> well, looks like the converter that came with the cheap mp3 player  might just work with wine.  i'll give it a try.  not bad so far for a $20 player
[03:19] <soc> kruck:
[03:19] <soc> sorry
[03:19] <soc> didn't see your comment
[03:19] <HHP2K> kahrytan: http://www.pastebin.com/d7ba585ce It was supposed to make the radio buttons look better in ubuntu, but it screwed up a lot of things.
[03:19] <soc> ok, i'll check that
[03:19] <soc> i didn't think of that
[03:20] <HHP2K> !enter | soc
[03:20] <ubotu> soc: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:20] <larson9999> gutsy ready for me yet? that's the question.  got some cool new features?
[03:20] <soc> i swapped cables, i swapped master/slave .... i'll try it
[03:21] <kahrytan> HHP2K, nothing was there
[03:21] <HHP2K> .. oh.
[03:21] <nickrud> HHP2K, where'd you install that thing? It might be in your personal firefox config, and uninstallling firefox won't remove it
[03:21] <kahrytan> nickrud, a purge would.
[03:21] <HHP2K> I was told in #firefox that reinstalling should work fine.
[03:21] <nickrud> kahrytan, that removes dot files?
[03:21] <HHP2K> But I'll remember that
[03:22] <Anolis> Hello, I was wondering if anyone happens to know why my nvidia modules fail to reload after a reboot
[03:22] <kahrytan> It would kill the .mozilla
[03:22] <Anolis> im using ubuntu 64bit 7.04
[03:22] <kahrytan> HHP2K, But how did you do customization? chrome?
[03:22] <Anolis> with kernel 2.6.20-16-generic
[03:22] <nickrud> kahrytan, when did purging start removing files from the home directory
[03:22] <Anolis> they load fine if i reinstall the nvidia drivers from the binary file "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-100.14.11-pkg2.run"
[03:23] <Devo> What is the process gij-4.1?
[03:23] <HHP2K> kahrytan: I wish I could tell you :P I don't see why that thing didn't work
[03:23] <jazz_> bsr
[03:23] <Anolis> I don't understand what is going wrong, all the log file seems to give me is "Error: API mismatch: this NVIDIA driver component version 100.14.11, but the NVIDIA kernel module's version does not match. Please make sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version.
[03:23] <nickrud> Devo, the Free Java
[03:23] <HHP2K> kahrytan: It installed something, and then removed something else from FF. Probably replaced them, by the way it looked
[03:24] <Devo> What is the command to delete a foldeR?
[03:24] <kahrytan> HHP2K, You could just delete .mozilla from /home
[03:24] <kahrytan> /home/user
[03:24] <JDLimbo> is there an irc client that runs from the command line?
[03:24] <HHP2K> It's reinstalling now
[03:24] <HHP2K> So we'll see.
[03:24] <Anolis> iirc i think
[03:24] <nickrud> Anolis, nvidia drivers require a matching kernel driver , that's telling you it doesn't match. Don't have nvidia, so I can't tell you how to fix it.
[03:25] <nickrud> Devo, rmdir
[03:25] <Anolis> well thats the thing, the driver installer apparently compiles the kernel driver for the detected kernel
[03:25] <kahrytan> HHP2K, I doubt the install got damaged.
[03:25] <Anolis> and all is fine.. but then when restart... poof
[03:25] <DrHalan> can somebody recommend me a gnutella client for linux?
[03:25] <nickrud> Anolis, envy?
[03:26] <Anolis> ?
[03:26] <nickrud> Anolis, ok, you'd know what that was if you'd used it :)
[03:26] <sin2gen2> DrHalan:  i like giFT
[03:26] <HHP2K> nickrud, kahrytan: Reinstalling FF worked =) Thanks guys.
[03:26] <GrooveStix> folks, how do I mount a slave HDD?
[03:26] <Anolis> oh yea i have no clue. (googles)
[03:26] <sin2gen2> DrHalan:  http://gift.sourceforge.net/
[03:26] <sauvin> !envy
[03:26] <kahrytan> DrHalan, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnutella#Software
[03:26] <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!
[03:27] <Anolis> hmm..
[03:27] <richardjc> how do i install an application with wine?
[03:27] <tempt_> is there a way to "roll back" apt-get?
[03:27] <Devo> Would I use rm -R to remove a folder and all it's contents?
[03:27] <kahrytan> richard, run the installer with wine
[03:27] <Anolis> "wine <applicationinstaller.exe
[03:27] <tempt_> i messed up some stuff when trying to enable multiverse
[03:27] <tempt_> don't know how to fix it
[03:27] <richardjc> its a CD
[03:27] <nickrud> Devo, yes
[03:28] <kruck> I have the effects for minimizing/maximizing moving windows et. al. but the desktop cube just refuses to work, anyone have any ideas?
[03:28] <afaik> so how do I use the 3D screen switcher?
[03:28] <kahrytan> richardjc, run the installer with wine
[03:28] <afaik> or desktop switcher, whatever it is called
[03:28] <richardjc> ok
[03:28] <richardjc> thanks
[03:28] <Anolis> ctrl-alt+click drag
[03:28] <kruck> supposedly ctrl + alt and drag
[03:28] <richardjc> i
[03:28] <kruck> lol
[03:28] <afaik> no luck
[03:29] <afaik> 3ddesktop
[03:29] <nickrud> tempt_, you can get a good sources.list at www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
[03:29] <richardjc> i'm going to install nero 7 just so i can use lightscribe, is there a linux alternative?
[03:29] <afaik> or maybe I need to start it first or somethign? I just installed it and that was it
[03:29] <kruck> you may well be having the same problem as me "afaik", does the window effects work?

[03:30] <kahrytan> !repeat
[03:30] <ubotu> 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
[03:30] <kruck> I have window effects turned on, but the desktop cube isn't working :(
[03:30] <afaik> Ubuntu has come FAR since I last used it dude
[03:30] <Anolis> this makes no sense, cause the drivers work just fine on a 32bit install of ubuntu.
[03:30] <afaik> wow oh wow
[03:31] <HHP2K> Anolis: Where do the files that windows programs wine'd actually go when they're installed? It says it's going to "C: Program Files/lalala", which obviously isn't there.. does wine just recreate directories?
[03:31] <richardjc> :(
[03:31] <kruck> this is my first time running ubuntu seriously, i dabbled in kororaa/sabayon :P but not so much ubunut
[03:31] <sin2gen2> HHP2K:  your users .wine dir
[03:31] <sayers> Hello. My code doesnt work on ubuntu, its java code eh. Kinda hard to explain. According to ##java it works on windows
[03:31] <afaik> is there a package with alternative splash screens?
[03:31] <Anolis> /home/<user>/.wine/c_drive
[03:31] <xalspaero> is there a shortcut to whip open a terminal window?
[03:31] <sin2gen2> HHP2K:  .wine/drive_c probably
[03:31] <kruck> there is in kubuntu, not so sure about ubuntu i'll have a look for you
[03:32] <sayers> xalspaero, ctrl + alt + f1
[03:32] <HHP2K> sin2gen2: Which is another thing. Why is that directory hidden when I look for it?
[03:32] <kahrytan> richardjc, search ubuntuforums.org for lightscribe
[03:32] <pga> Im doing a survey... why do you use linux?
[03:32] <jaydoggg> I am trying to view a .vob file in movie player and I get this weird error..."he playback of this movie requires a application/x-rar decoder plugin which is not installed."
[03:32] <sin2gen2> HHP2K:  just because it is a user specific configuration dir
[03:32] <nickrud> richardjc, this looks interesting http://www.lightscribe.com/downloadSection/linux/index.aspx
[03:32] <kruck> afaik, found it
[03:32] <Anolis> pga i think a forum would be better suited for this type of question
[03:33] <getter> This question is about installing RealPlayer10Gold.  Is there a more appropriate channel to ask this?
[03:33] <HHP2K> pga: Why not?
[03:33] <jaydoggg> since when is rar a video decoder?
[03:33] <lindar> I have a problem with writing CDs. For some reason it continues to ask me to put a blank CD in the drive when there's already one in there.
[03:33] <lindar> Any clues?
[03:33] <kruck> it is...system --> administration --> login window -->local
[03:33] <yanger> anyone having issues with gaim or pidgin?
[03:33] <kruck> then you have a few choices
[03:33] <kahrytan> richardjc, http://www.lightscribe.com/downloadsection/pse/
[03:33] <Anolis> yanger, what type of issues are you referring to?
[03:34] <afaik> sweet
[03:34] <nickrud> lindar, I had a couple of discs like that, for some reason it just didn't like them
[03:34] <yanger> Anolis, dbus: Need to register an object with the dbus subsystem., msn: Connection error from Switchboard server (207.46.27.170): Reading error
[03:34] <TBZ> Hey guys, where can I find config file for mouse handling? I have a problem with mouse sending 2 diff commands at once for same key, it's opening a context menu, (right click) on a button that I don't want it to, how to fix?
[03:34] <lindar> nickrud: Oh, hello again. I'm on my linux machine now. The wifi driver works. =D
[03:34] <sin2gen2> lindar:  are you sure it is blank or could it have been a coaster from a previous failure to write?
[03:34] <nickrud> lindar, great
[03:34] <Anolis> hmm..
[03:35] <jaydoggg> anyone care to assist me getting movie player to play a vob file?  its seeing it as a rar file for some reason...
[03:35] <Lustblader> just right click
[03:35] <jazz_> irc.irchighway.net
[03:36] <Lustblader> and select the appropriate program to open it in.. mostly totem or vlc
[03:36] <jaydoggg> Lustblader: that doesnt work
[03:36] <jazz_> #irc.irchighway.net
[03:36] <jaydoggg> Lustblader: that is where i'm still getting the error The playback of this movie requires a application/x-rar decoder plugin which is not installed.
[03:37] <afaik> what was the package with gnome themes?
[03:37] <Pici> jazz_: either /server irc.irchighway.net or /connect irc.irchighway.net
[03:37] <sin2gen2> anyone use uswsusp and get an error "suspend: Could not stat the resume device file"?
[03:37] <pga> jaydoggg, apt-get install unrar
[03:37] <lealgo> cool
[03:37] <Lustblader> then go to add remove programs n add extra plugins
[03:37] <spanglesontoast> how do I see the output from devices connected to my machine ?
[03:37] <jaydoggg> pga I already did that
[03:37] <Lustblader> .vob files are files from a DVD.. so u might need an extra codec
[03:37] <jaydoggg> but rar has nothing to do with video playback
[03:37] <pga> it does sometimes
[03:37] <sin2gen2> spanglesontoast:  lsusb?  dmesg?
[03:38] <pga> what kind of disk jaydoggg ?
[03:38] <Pelo> Lustblader, blackest  .vob files are mpeg4  just so you know
[03:38] <jaydoggg> downloaded vob
[03:38] <spanglesontoast> ok
[03:38] <nickrud> afaik, aptitude search theme~sgnome
[03:38] <jaydoggg> Pelo: they are MPEG2
[03:38] <sin2gen2> spanglesontoast:  cat /proc/bus/usb/devices for detail info?
[03:38] <Pelo> jaydoggg,  my mistake
[03:38] <spanglesontoast> yea getting lots of this coming through [ 1164.279296]  drivers/usb/input/yealink.c: unexpected response fd
[03:38] <Lustblader> Pelo: .vob files come in DVds mostly
[03:38] <Pelo> jaydoggg,  you sure ?
[03:38] <jaydoggg> mpeg 4 is wmv, real media, divx, xvid
[03:39] <jaydoggg> and those variants
[03:39] <Pelo> Lustblader, yes but I was saying if you need a codecs donT' look for vob codecs  they'r mpeg 2 apparently
[03:39] <anandanbu> Is there any site to get the videos and presentations of the Ubuntu live like the debconf07
[03:39] <nickrud> afaik, and aptitude search engine~sgnome
[03:39] <Lustblader> no look for DVD codecs
[03:39] <Pelo> anandanbu, search for ubuntu on youtube
[03:39] <jaydoggg> dvd and mpeg II codecs are the same
[03:40] <anandanbu> Pelo: is there any fast ftp sites for that
[03:40] <jaydoggg> problem is why movie player is associating a compressed archive type to a mpeg stream
[03:40] <Lustblader> jaydoggg: get GStreamer extra plugins
[03:40] <Pelo> anandanbu, I don'T know of one but that means nothing
[03:40] <jaydoggg> Lustblader: thx much
[03:40] <jaydoggg> Lustblader: i'll give it a try
[03:41] <JDLimbo> anyone, please. Need help getting tv-out with svideo

[03:46] <Pelo> Notsquee, ok I think I remember,  boot the live cd, and see if you can'T mount your ubuntu hdd,   if you can access your /home folder  you can  1 make a copy on another hdd , or 2 create a new partition from the free space on your currnt hdd and copy /home there
[03:46] <choudesh> I can't think of a program name...it is a web-based network throughput/bandwidth meter. Anyone know what I am talking about?
[03:46] <Aval0n_> does ubuntu have any remote access install be default?

[03:46] <Pelo> JDLimbo,  ok thatke that line 8 error and search it in the forum see what comes up
[03:46] <kitche> Aval0n_: well i believe it coems witha vnc server by default
[03:46] <Notsquee> Well, Pelo, that's the problem, I can't really make the CD because the file size was increased or something, It's at 1.8Gb
[03:47] <Pelo> Notsquee,  that's not right
[03:47] <Notsquee> That's why I tried a different Mirror to see if I was getting the right one
[03:47] <Pelo> Notsquee,  did you try and dl two cd at once ?

[04:10] <benn92647> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34253/
[04:10] <abadtooth> Lustblader: 55% :P
[04:11] <Lustblader> Cheekio: if ur anyway gonna burn it to a dvd y don u download the dvd version??.. u can burn it using any regular burning software in windows like nero
[04:11] <HHP2K> Cheekio: Are you in ubuntu?
[04:11] <Pelo> Cheekio, there is a dvd image ,  but you should be able to burn it to a dvd as well , so I am told
[04:11] <lindar> Okay, when I place a blank CD in the tray, it registers that there is a CD in the tray, but when I go to write to disk, it tells me to insert a disk. These are CD-Rs, and they aren't bad because I went through four of them with the same results.
[04:11] <HHP2K> Wow, nobody ever gets that much attention :P
[04:11] <benn92647> nickrud: me and indy are having a hard time trying to figure out where grub thinks my PATA drive is
[04:11] <Cheekio> I am using ubuntu
[04:11] <Lustblader> abadtooth: keep on going
[04:11] <nickrud> benn92647, so am I :)
[04:11] <benn92647> nickrud: thats my windows XP drive
[04:11] <jacob> Lustblader, in the filename, i put the name of the files that are compressed or is it a different file?
[04:12] <Cheekio> The internet connection is crap, and I've got a stack of blank DVDs, but no CDs
[04:12] <ahattar> question, my wireless NEVER worked in ubuntu, even thou i configure the ssid and wep on it, anyone can help me?
[04:12] <nickrud> benn, I'm gonna make some changes and show it to you
[04:12] <abadtooth> Lustblader: My internet sucks... 50KB/s
[04:12] <benn92647> nickrud: cool so that is the problem
[04:12] <Pelo> lindar,  try waiting until you are asked forthe cd before putting it in , see what happens

[04:13] <__mikem> ahattar, I have the same problem
[04:13] <Cheekio> question: is 7.04 solved many of the wireless issues ubuntu was having in previous versions?
[04:14] <nickrud> benn92647, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34254/ . I've added a couple map commands (to fool windows about what's the first drive on the system) and changed the partition to the first one)
[04:14] <Pelo> benn92647,  having some grub issues ?
[04:14] <ahattar> mikem why is that?
[04:14] <__mikem> Pelo, my lawn is infested with grup :p
[04:14] <benn92647> if you have a D link card its a 3 second process to enable it in ubuntu
[04:14] <nickrud> benn92647, one sec, I missed one thing
[04:14] <Lustblader> Cheekio: i don know man.... i', using a desktop pc with a ethernet card n external dsl modm
[04:14] <benn92647> Pelo: amongst oythers LOL yeah
[04:14] <__mikem> ahattar, aparently the wireless device that tha laptop uses isn't supported by default under linux. I know there is some download you can get that will get it working, but for the life of me I can't remember what the name of it is
[04:15] <Pelo> benn92647, your grub menu doesn'T have windows on it ?
[04:15] <nickrud> benn92647, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34255/ (forgot to change the drive as well)

[04:15] <nickrud> Pelo, don't, I'm just a bit better than semi-literate in grub
[04:15] <Cheekio> Alright, thanks, I think I'll just suck it up and download the dvd iso
[04:16] <benn92647> Nicrud: is that the correct version of my grub?
[04:16] <Pelo> nickrud, maybe you can explain the problme since ben seems more interested in loling
[04:16] <benn92647> nickrud: can i copy that and paste it in my grub folder
[04:16] <jacob> lustblader i'm having problems, can you send me that link in the internet where i can post my error?
[04:16] <OZTac1> @mikem: - yopu mean ndiswrapper?
[04:16] <nickrud> benn92647, I believe that windows stanza will work. Pelo, his windows is on the second drive, gotta fool windows :)
[04:17] <afaik> how do I bind a key combination in gnome?

[04:25] <benn92647> nickrud: so i need to go into the root to make the changes right?
[04:26] <afaik> nevermind.. this sounds iike I am doing something stupid as it should probably work out of the box as ubuntu ships the 3ddesktop packages
[04:26] <Pelo> Goooner,  yeah that sound about right,    in the terminal   gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst     fine the entry for your ubuntu boot and add that bit to the kernel boot line
[04:26] <ticnailer69> oh!
[04:26] <nickrud> benn92647, anything that's outside of /home/<you> , yes

[04:27] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : Sorry but i do not know what ntldr is.
[04:27] <benn92647> nickrud: how to i copy the pastebin info into my root grub
[04:27] <abadtooth> Geek_:  no I thought all I needed to do was type cd.. to go back a dir and cd foldername to go to another folder within that one?
[04:27] <CarlFK> Malachi: oh yeah.  bummer.
[04:27] <ticnailer69> thanks
[04:27] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : it gets to a point where i can choose the OS to load up but when i Choose XP it does not load
[04:27] <Pelo> yugi did you check if there was  a restricted dirver for your card ?
[04:27] <Geek_> the NT bootloader. by right in a windows/linux bootloader

[04:27] <Lustblader> /quit... call of the food.. sorry
[04:27] <jacob> pici some action took place, now what do i do now? is it installed or did we just decompressed it?
[04:28] <abadtooth> Geek_: It's not working!
[04:28] <timburke> Hey all, does anyone know how to get a compiler to work with Ubuntu?
[04:28] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: tricky, freezes, or some error?
[04:28] <ecaandrew2> i accidently crashed my ubuntu today =[ and need help anyone
[04:28] <jacob> pici what to do now?
[04:28] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : It says "Starting OS ...."
[04:28] <Geek_> abadtooth: type in ls...
[04:28] <Pici> jacob: You only just decompressed it, you need to cd into the directory and read the README and/or INSTALL files
[04:28] <nickrud> benn92647, in this order:   cd /boot/grub/     then  sudo cp menu.lst menu.lst.before.nickrud.messed.around    then   gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:28] <Pelo> ecaandrew,  we need a mor specific issue to deal with
[04:28] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : and nothing happens from there.
[04:28] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: hmm, apparently you might have hosed your windows install
[04:28] <ecaandrew2> i was trying to learn some commands, and i restarted and got this error
[04:28] <ecaandrew2> Pelo: here
[04:28] <ticnailer69> !register | ticnailer69
[04:28] <rPro|dB}> What can i do to fix the hosed?
[04:28] <Goooner> I dont get the syntax in /boot/grub:  Is # a normal line and ## ignored?
[04:29] <ecaandrew2> i crashed my ubuntu today, i was trying to learn new commands, and i did /etc/init.d/gdm restart.....
[04:29] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : What can i do to fix the hosed?
[04:29] <ecaandrew2> Pelo: here is the error i get
[04:29] <ecaandrew2> Pelo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34259/
[04:29] <nickrud> Goooner, both are ignored; the ones with only one # are used by ubuntu as defaults to build a new menu.lst
[04:29] <benn92647> nickrud: your kiiding right
[04:29] <Geek_> rPro|dB}:no need to panic, though, back up your linux first, and see if you can restore the XP partition with testdisk, it should be on the ubuntulivecd
[04:29] <IntuitiveNipple> On Feisty using 'Desktop Effects', the Gnome "Window List" panel applet has just decided it is only going to appear at the base of one workspace - previously it appeared on all 4 'sides' of the 'cube'. Anyone know how to correct this?
[04:29] <Goooner> nickrud: So there arent many lines in used as default?
[04:29] <Pelo> Goooner,  lines with any number of # before them are just comments  the menu entries are further down,  past the halfway mark ,  the hve no # before them
[04:29] <nickrud> benn92647, well, maybe not all the nickrud stuff, but always back up system files before changing them
[04:30] <abadtooth> Oh no! Lustblader is gone?
[04:30] <jacob> pici what do i do now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34260/
[04:30] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: it sounds like you overwrote your XP partition to me, somehow
[04:30] <timburke> Alright... Everybody
[04:30] <benn92647> nickrud i did the first part
[04:30] <timburke> I am trying to get a compiler
[04:30] <abadtooth> Can anyone help me install a tarball?
[04:30] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : Ummmm where do i get testdisk?
[04:30] <timburke> here on Ubuntu
[04:30] <Error_> test
[04:30] <nickrud> Goooner, if you compare the ones with # and then look at the lines without, you'll see the template
[04:30] <Geek_> ubuntu liveCD has it
[04:30] <quaal> anyone know of a program to shrink dvd9 dvd's into dvd5

[04:31] <Pici> jacob: Follow the directions.
[04:31] <benn92647> nickrud: it says cp: missing destination file operand after `menu.lst'
[04:31] <benn92647> Try `cp --help' for more information.

[04:31] <Konsole_AFK> O.o
[04:32] <nickrud> benn92647, you can say cp menu.lst menu.lst.backup
[04:32] <Goooner> If grub takes forever to load, I did something stupid, ey?
[04:32] <Pelo> Goooner,  possibly but not neccesariily
[04:32] <Konsole_AFK> grub shouldnt take forever to load
[04:32] <Goooner> Hmm, it is starting
[04:32] <Goooner> forever = 7 sec
[04:32] <Goooner> :D
[04:32] <benn92647> nickrud: says permission denied
[04:32] <Pici> Konsole_AFK: msi files are for windows.
[04:32] <jacob> pice write those two commands into the terminal from the read me file?
[04:32] <Pelo> Goooner,  I feel your pain
[04:32] <Konsole_AFK> Pici: i know.. i ment in wine
[04:33] <kaveh> some one plz helpe to setup wifi
[04:33] <Pici> jacob: You'll probably need to prefix them with sudo though for them to work.
[04:33] <jacob> pici write those two commands into the terminal from the read me file?
[04:33] <nickrud> benn92647, that was a test, remember you're in system territory? use sudo
[04:33] <Pici> jacob: yes.
[04:33] <timburke> Kaveh, go to lemonparty.org

[04:35] <Aval0n_> but 1280x720 is native 720p
[04:35] <nickrud> benn92647, now you can do ls  , it'll list the files in the directory/folder
[04:35] <Aval0n_> for a plasma no?
[04:35] <Pelo> Aval0n,  isn'T it suppose tobe  1280x900 ?
[04:35] <Aval0n_> erm

[04:35] <benn92647> nickrud: ok it shows some stuff
[04:36] <Aval0n_> 720p is 1280x900?
[04:36] <Pelo> no garranties but I think that that's one of the regular wide screen res

[04:36] <nickrud> benn92647, you see two menu.lst , one with backup appended, right?
[04:36] <Pici> Aval0n_: It depends on your hardware, whether its 720p/i or 1080p/i
[04:36] <Pelo> Aval0n, I think 720 is per inch
[04:36] <benn92647> nickrud: its only 4 lines i think i can post it here

[04:54] <kenthomson> I need help. I hear a (slight) hissing sound from my speakers. I cant play any music or any other sound. I tried plugging my headphones directly into the sound card but still i couldn't hear any sound. I tried restarting the sound server by alsa-utils restart, but after re-starting the same hiss continues. It should be noted that when i stopped the sound server the hiss dissapoeared.
[04:54] <sin2gen2> meoblast001:  all the installer does is place the libflashplayer.so file in the right directory, i believe
[04:54] <jorvis> anyone know how to start the postgresql server on ubuntu after installing it?
[04:54] <meoblast001> sin2gen2: how do i get rid of that
[04:54] <timburke> Meoblast
[04:54] <sin2gen2> meoblast001:  you can "locate libflashplayer.so" and delete all the instances
[04:54] <timburke> type
[04:55] <Emualynk> Hey
[04:55] <timburke> err never mind
 for a first day youv done pretty good managing to go on the irc chan
[04:55] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ :  nvm i got it
[04:55] <timburke> Does anyone have any idea on my problem?
[04:55] <richard> does anyone know anything about adesklets
[04:55] <kenthomson> !adesklets
[04:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about adesklets - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:55] <meoblast001> sin2gen2: locate never returns results then i find the files later... so it doesnt work
[04:55] <Meroigo-laptop> thanks pelo. i had tried "unmount" before, but apperantly it was "umount". =)
[04:55] <richard> i cant get the adesklets -i to work
[04:55] <jorvis> meoblast001: run 'updatedb' first
[04:55] <kenthomson> someone?
[04:55] <Pelo> np Meroigo-laptop
[04:56] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ :  IRC is Easy to get on, i use it all the time back in the day =P
[04:56] <Generic> say did anybody else bind spacial keys to open console?
[04:56] <ticnailer69> hells yeah
[04:56] <ticnailer69> thans for that man
[04:56] <Emualynk> I have a problem with Xchat..
[04:56] <sin2gen2> meoblast001:  when was your last "updatedb"?
[04:56] <Pelo> richard, adesklets never wroked for me , I use gdesklets instead
[04:56] <ticnailer69> thanks*
[04:56] <meoblast001> sin2gen2: a while ago
[04:56] <richard> well gdesklets suck
[04:56] <Emualynk> When I try to connect to a server it is stuck on "Identification"
[04:56] <Generic> say did anybody else bind spacial keys to open console?
[04:56] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ :  Btw Testdisk didnt say there was anything wrong with my partition..
[04:57] <Generic> humz
[04:57] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ :  after i analysed it.
[04:57] <Geek_> Generic: i used to use this quake style console...
[04:57] <Generic> lol
[04:57] <Generic> ctrl+`
[04:57] <Generic> ?
[04:57] <Geek_> rPro: well thats good. means something else is borked
[04:57] <jorvis> noone uses postgres on ubunut?
[04:57] <Pici> timburke: I'm not sure what to say, this is very weird.
[04:58] <Geek_> Generic: its neat, press F12 and a console drops off the top of the screen
[04:58] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ :  Well it still wont load up...
[04:58] <Geek_> yeah
[04:58] <Generic> oh i know what you mean
[04:58] <Geek_> thing is if you do a repair install of windows (which would be what i'd do) you're probably gonna need to reinstall grub
[04:58] <Meroigo-laptop> how can i check used/free space on a hard drive? :P
[04:58] <Generic> omfg
[04:59] <jacob> pici, do you want to continue helping me, i found that part 2 of the file contains the name lib.tgz, continue?
[04:59] <Generic> did he check mbr?
[04:59] <Pici> jacob: You'll need to decompress that file too.  tar -xzvf lib.tgz
[04:59] <jacob> pici yes i did that
[04:59] <sin2gen2> meoblast001:  here http://pastebin.com/d7abb22de
[04:59] <Generic> you have a command for un + re installing grum
[04:59] <Generic> like lilo -u
[04:59] <Pici> jacob: then cd into the lib directory and copy the file like the instructions tell you.
[05:00] <Goooner> Im having some difficulties making my wlan work. I got one ethernet interface, and another wireless interface, that is DISABLED. How do I enable it then!?
[05:00] <Generic> you dont need to run the windows "fix /mbr"
[05:00] <Generic> or mbrfix command
[05:00] <Pelo> Goooner, were yo able to make the grub edit ?
[05:00] <w30> anyone besides me have any problems making Remote Desktop  VNC with vino work?
[05:00] <Goooner> Pelo: I changed it back, seem to do more bad
[05:01] <timburke> should I just manually try to install gcc?
[05:01] <jacob> pici i get to "*.so" files when i extract the files, and i don't know what to do with it
[05:01] <Geek_> Generic: sounds like windows is (more) broken (than usual) to me, however fixing windows generally removes grib
 iwconfig <interface>
[05:01] <Goooner> Pelo: But now I find that the card is disabled. SO probably that is the issue
[05:01] <w30> Mine does not refresh dthe desktop
[05:01] <Pelo> Goooner,  did it mess your boot ?
[05:01] <Goooner> Pelo: No, it didnt.
[05:01] <meoblast001> sin2gen2: deleted it from there and out of the apt packages and about:plugins is cleared from it now
 or iwlist scanning
[05:01] <Generic> thatll wake him upp
[05:01] <Pelo> Goooner,  I'd put it back if I were you
[05:01] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : it didnt even detect a partition for windows =S
[05:01] <Goooner> Generic: logic name in < > ?
[05:02] <Generic> eth0
[05:02] <Generic> eth1
[05:02] <Generic> ath1
[05:02] <Generic> something like that
[05:02] <Generic> dont put the <>
[05:02] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: ok.. this isn't good
[05:02] <Goooner> Generic: But it is the logical name it is after
[05:02] <Geek_> installed from livecd? did you read what it said about the partition getting wiped?
[05:02] <sin2gen2> meoblast001:  you can replace it with apt or copy the tarball flash to those directories and restart your browser; it should work either way
[05:02] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : let me run another check..
[05:02] <SkiGuy> hey all. is the new compi-fusion (0.5.2) in any repositories yet? I don't really want to compile it myself
[05:02] <Bogaurd> is there a way I can run something over x-forwarding through an ssh session, then close that ssh session, open a new one later, and resume where I left off with application? somehow keep it running in the background on the remote machine?
[05:03] <Pici> jacob: follow the rest of the directions.  I remember one of them was `sudo cp libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so /usr/lib`
[05:03] <Generic> what does ifconfig or iwconfig give ya?
[05:03] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: i DON'T think, logically testdisk will work on the partition its on
[05:03] <SkiGuy> boguard - check x11vnc
[05:03] <Geek_> bogard: freenx
[05:03] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : so heres whats been happening, format my 300 gb hd , i first install XP
[05:04] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : then .. install linux
[05:04] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : when i want to go on XP it does not load up
[05:04] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : but linux does.
[05:04] <meoblast001> any AVI to GIF software in the repos???
 you need to config grub
[05:04] <Goooner> What is iwlist scanning? What does "eth1 No scan results" mean?
[05:04] <Geek_> rPro|dB}: was the drive partitioned in 2? are you sure you didn't accidentally install to the windows drive?
 it scanns for aps
[05:05] <Geek_> Generic: from what he says, it sounds like an ntldr issue
[05:05] <Geek_> ...
[05:05] <Geek_> wait
[05:05] <rPro|dB}> Geek_ : How do i config grub?
[05:05] <Geek_> can linux see the XP drive?>
[05:05] <rPro|dB}> yes
[05:05] <Geek_>  never done it myself
[05:05] <Geek_> is all the XP data there?
[05:05] <rPro|dB}> yes
 do you have any hotspots around ya ?
[05:05] <Goooner> Generic: So what do you think about "No scan results"?
[05:06] <Goooner> Yeah, I do
[05:06] <Geek_> ok
[05:06] <Geek_> data is safe
[05:06] <Goooner> Im on that hotspot on another computer (this one)
[05:06] <Geek_> i donno how to config grub lo
 i think ur driver is not installed correctlly
[05:06] <Geek_> ;p
[05:06] <Geek_> it usually 'just works' for me
[05:06] <rPro|dB}> does anyone here know to config crub?
 the wifi wont recognize other hotspots
[05:06] <rPro|dB}> grub**&
[05:06] <Geek_> hmmm
[05:06] <Goooner> Generic: I think I agree
[05:06] <rPro|dB}> Generic ? Goooner?
[05:06] <meoblast001> sin2gen2: is the new flash player in the repos?

[05:15] <Goooner> Generic: If I have made no changes in files, I have nothing to clean.

[05:26] <IntuitiveNipple> Goooner: You said it matched the specification at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HPnx7400 but that isn't the same WiFi as you said just prior to that - then you said it is a Broadcom  4311 - so you've confused me
[05:26] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  http://pastebin.com/daa7693a
[05:26] <rPro|dB}> faileas : what are the steps you do when installing linux and OS?
[05:26] <downhillgames> tyvm sin2gen2.
[05:27] <Goooner> Sorry Nipple: The terminal says Broadcom Corp. Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN
[05:27] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  i take it you are running with vesa and want 3d acceleration, right?
[05:27] <downhillgames> sin2gen2; that's what mine looks like (just take my word for it)
[05:27] <downhillgames> sin2gen2; indeed
[05:27] <Parisi_work> hmmm
[05:27] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  is this a fresh install?
[05:27] <downhillgames> sin2gen2; not any more :) but it was
[05:28] <Goooner> Nipple: But its the same model they discuss in that article. Perhaps a little different version
[05:28] <IntuitiveNipple> Goooner: ahh ok! hence I was confused :)
[05:28] <Darth_Gimp> can I make a panel drawer of my home directory?
[05:28] <faileas> rPro|dB}: partition first, install windows, install linux. test. more recently though i've been using wubi, so its install windows, download wubi installer, let it download the cd image (say over a full work day) and let the install go overnight
[05:28] <Goooner> Nipple: You got any idea what to do? :D
[05:28] <drashok> hello, I am not able to boot from live cd ubuntu 7.04. I will appreciate help.
[05:28] <logreeval> Hi, I have a Dell 600M that is having trouble connecting to the internet...anyone know how to fix this?
[05:28] <rPro|dB}> faileas : hmmm i've done it both ways
[05:29] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  anything of interest at the bottom of your /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[05:29] <overrider> logreeval: be more specific
[05:29] <rPro|dB}> faileas : linux then xp and xp then linux, its always after linux is when it stops working
[05:29] <downhillgames> sin2gen2; everything fglrx/ati has been removed. so i can't tell you
[05:29] <rPro|dB}> faileas : its something to do with splitting the HD
[05:29] <downhillgames> besides the fact, it's upstairs :)
[05:29] <IntuitiveNipple> Goooner: And I take it you've been trying to follow the Forum HowTo guides too?
[05:29] <rPro|dB}> faileas : i think...
[05:29] <faileas> never had that happening
[05:29] <downhillgames> sin2gen2; how long will you be on yet? and may i PM you?
[05:29] <jellymaster> can anyone supply me some information about using wireless USB cards on a desktop I can't even get it to recognise that I have one in I tried the commands /sbin/iwconfig /sbin/ifconfig ath0 down /sbin/ifconfig ath0 up /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 down /sbin/ifconfigh wlan0 up
[05:29] <Goooner> Generic: I cant perform the first lines in the code of the howto. sudo rmmod ndiswrapper
[05:29] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  i would use the xorg-driver-fglrx in linux-restricted modules (which i am sure you have tried)
[05:29] <Goooner> Nipple: Yes, but Im really lost
[05:29] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  sure
[05:30] <faileas> how about you split th HDD FIRST, do a windows install, then do the linux install?
[05:30] <Darth_Gimp> can I make a panel drawer of my home directory?
[05:30] <drashok> hello will some one help me resolve my problem. I am not able to boot from ubuntu live CD 7.04
[05:30] <faileas> you can fix the current one i think, using chkdsk from the windows cd, if its a bad FS
[05:30] <sin2gen2> downhillgames:  i'll be here a while
[05:30] <Goooner> Module ndiswrapper does not exist in /proc...
[05:30] <Generic> gooner its ok you dont have it installed
[05:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Goooner: You say you can't perform rmmod... what error do you get?
[05:30] <Generic> thats why
[05:30] <rPro|dB}> FS?
[05:30] <Goooner> Oh.. :D
[05:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Goooner: Generic has it covered :)
[05:30] <Goooner> Okay, then Ill try the howto
[05:30] <Parisi_work> Anyone here on dsl?
[05:30] <faileas> file system

[05:32] <drashok> :(
[05:32] <Meroigo-laptop> is there a file in linux i could edit to put in commands i want to be run at startup?
[05:32] <dystopianray> Meroigo-laptop: what do you want to run at startup?
[05:33] <Parisi_work> dystopianray Would you prefer that over cable for any reason>
[05:33] <ShockSMX> what do you guys use for a windows app or windows os emulation layer
[05:33] <JDLimbo> what's the easiest way to find out what kind of video card you have?
[05:33] <Meroigo-laptop> command to mount some network paths
[05:33] <Meroigo-laptop> i mounted them before, then i rebooted and they seemed to be unmounted :P
[05:33] <dystopianray> Parisi_work: yes i would, i don't watch pay tv and i'm not particularly fond of the shared neighbourhood bandwidth of cable

[05:33] <drashok> :(
[05:33] <nickrud> ShockSMX, vmware
[05:33] <cello_rasp> JDLimbo: hal-device-manager
[05:33] <Goooner> Generic: Is there any way to get those packs down to a flash disc in win environment?
[05:33] <ShockSMX> nickrud: free?
[05:33] <drashok> exhausted can u help me
[05:34] <nickrud> ShockSMX, yes, it's in the ubuntu-commercial repo
[05:34] <logreeval> overrider: i cant get any internet

[05:34] <ShockSMX> drashok: go into the bios and check the boot order. it needs to boot from CD before booting from the HD.
[05:34] <logreeval> overrider: i cant get any internet
 yeah instead of wget just go to the link and dl it
[05:34] <drashok> i am not able to boot ubuntu
[05:34] <exhausted> how do you check kernel version in ubuntu, drashok does that answer your question, lol
[05:34] <ShockSMX> drashok: how far do you get
[05:34] <dystopianray> exhausted: uname -r
[05:34] <drashok> yes it does not boot from cd
[05:34] <ShockSMX> drashok: try what i said
[05:34] <drashok> screen displays a message
[05:34] <ShockSMX> what message
[05:35] <drashok> may i tell u :)
[05:35] <ShockSMX> nickrud: ah, cool. how do i dig that up?
[05:35] <ShockSMX> nickrud: is there an apt-get frontend i could browse through?
[05:36] <cello_rasp> drashok: check your bios for boot device sequence. CD/DVD should be in there before HD
[05:36] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: synaptics
use ndis wrapper it works for sure
[05:36] <ShockSMX> cool
[05:36] <drashok> Yes it does boot from cd gets stuck leaving a message shock SMX
[05:36] <Parisi_work> dystopianray I am just looking for ideas, considering going with Verizon DSL 3mbit down as opposed to 5mbit down TW RR, dsl also $10 cheaper, but 1 year agreement.
 this injection thingie i just tried it didnt work fo me
[05:36] <nickrud> deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main <-- ShockSMX add that to your sources.list
[05:36] <ShockSMX> drashok: what message, dude
[05:36] <drashok> On booting from CD-ROM Ubuntu 7.4 stops midway.

[05:36] <drashok> Shock
[05:36] <drashok> did u get tht
[05:37] <Meroigo-laptop> did someone know?
[05:37] <cello_rasp> DSL is the same the world over
[05:37] <faileas> drashok: sounds like a bad cd
[05:37] <ShockSMX> drashok: yeah, i got that
[05:37] <drashok> shocksmx
[05:37] <Parisi_work> dystopianray Aha, gotcha.
[05:37] <drashok> i hve 3 of them
[05:37] <ShockSMX> drashok: can you do a checksum or something on the cd?
[05:37] <ShockSMX> all 3 fail?
[05:37] <logreeval> My 600m doesnt connect to ther internet, it does NOT see the wireless card, it DOES see the network card but doesn't connect to the internet.
[05:37] <drashok> none work and new ones that came by post
[05:37] <Parisi_work> faileas What do you currently use?
[05:37] <drashok> check sum what is that
[05:38] <ShockSMX> nah, if you've tried multiple copies, then the cd is fine
[05:38] <ShockSMX> something with your hardware
[05:38] <drashok> 1.4 GB Ram + new hard disk :)
[05:39] <drashok> feel frustrated
[05:39] <faileas> Parisi_work: cable, mainly cause its cheaper in the UK, and more reliable in singapore
[05:39] <Parisi_work> Ah
[05:39] <ShockSMX> hmm
[05:39] <drashok> My firefox which was running on XP also ceased functioning
[05:39] <drashok> Shock u there
[05:39] <islan> I don't know if it's just my hardware, but when running Ubuntu on it, the hard drive seems to get really noisy
[05:39] <drashok> :)
[05:39] <islan> either the hard drive or graphics card
[05:40] <Parisi_work> islan Fan noise?
[05:40] <ShockSMX> drashok: yeah
[05:40] <mikebot> When I open the file browser, I have it set to view as list, but the name column is much thinner than the size column. Is there a way to change the width of the name column?
[05:40] <drashok> ShockSMX  :o
[05:40] <islan> Parisi_work, yes
[05:40] <drashok> Ok :)
[05:40] <drashok> suggestions plz
[05:40] <Parisi_work> islan That would make sense.
[05:40] <ShockSMX> drashok: i don't know... i'm googling it
[05:40] <cello_rasp> drashok: check memory quality. run other diagnostics as well
[05:40] <master_> hello all
[05:40] <Generic> damn  i use bcm44xx thats why nothing works
[05:41] <meoblast001> what browsers have nothing to do with Firefox or the engine it runs on
[05:41] <meoblast001> ?
[05:41] <Goooner> Generic: If I ?got the file on the flash instead of an URL. What do I use instead of wget
[05:41] <monkeybritches> lynx
[05:41] <islan> Parisi_work, so it's not an Ubuntu problem?  the last time I used this hardware for XP was a long time ago, but I don't remember it being this noisy
[05:41] <Parisi_work> The OS will throthle the Video card fan for specific reasons, not sure why in your case.
[05:41] <master_> extract it and then make
 just copy the file
[05:41] <drashok> Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands
[05:41] <drashok> 	/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[05:41] <drashok> 	(initramfs) [ 63.173560]  ata1: port faild to respond (30 secs, status 0 x d0) wht does this mean
[05:41] <cello_rasp> drashok: it is DEF a hardware issue, 3 diff discs dont fail like that ...
 wget is used for dling
[05:42] <Goooner> Generic: Where do I put it?
[05:42] <Parisi_work> islan assuming you are strictly talking about the noise from your video card's fan.
[05:42] <cello_rasp> initramfs sounds like a problem with RAM
[05:42] <benn92647> just so you all know....you have some of the greatest minds in here helping you..so be nice to them
[05:42] <Generic> Goooner> any dir youd like
[05:42] <islan> Parisi_work, , I think it's that
[05:42] <benn92647> lsut wnated to say that
[05:42] <drashok> I have added 1 GB RAM
[05:42] <Generic> just be in the same dir while running the other commands
[05:42] <Goooner> lol, okay
[05:42] <benn92647> be back in a few
[05:42] <drashok> new one to the preexisting
[05:42] <Parisi_work> isla You should examine the inside of your machine and narrow it down.
[05:42] <cello_rasp> drashok: you can run a memory check from the ubuntu install disc i think
[05:42] <drashok> ok
[05:43] <Parisi_work> cello_rasp you can :)
[05:43] <islan> Parisi_work, okay.  I'll look it up, thanks!
[05:43] <ShockSMX> drashok: looks like it probably has something to have something to do with the /etc/inittab file
[05:44] <drashok> i will do a memory check :)
[05:44] <cello_rasp> heh, my pal has a motherboard that doesn't like WIN XP SP2 ....
[05:44] <meoblast001> i want Windows back
[05:44] <cello_rasp> meoblast: did you keep it?
[05:44] <dystopianray> meoblast001: konqueror
[05:44] <meoblast001> its sad but if you have windows... pll care about you
[05:44] <meoblast001> cello_rasp: it broke
[05:44] <ShockSMX> meoblast001: they do?
[05:44] <drashok> shock what is tty? It keeps saying "can't access tty"
[05:44] <nickrud> ShockSMX, a heads up: there is no /etc/inittab in feisty, it's all in /etc/event.d now
[05:45] <Parisi_work> islan My fan usually will spin faster (get louder) when i run certain apps, specially games under XP, not sure what would case that under Ubuntu.
[05:45] <cello_rasp> tty is the terminal
[05:45] <Parisi_work> islan What video card?
[05:45] <meoblast001> ShockSMX: then why did i find like 3 errors in the Linux flash player?
[05:45] <ShockSMX> drashok: it's like a terminal
[05:45] <islan> Parisi_work, not running anything particular on it though.  NVidia
[05:45] <cello_rasp> yo ima shutup
[05:45] <drashok> ok:)
[05:45] <dystopianray> meoblast001: what are the errors?
[05:46] <drashok> wht do u suggest ShockSMX?
[05:46] <ShockSMX> drashok: what about the memory tests others suggested?
[05:46] <tomcatt> !ubotu nfs
[05:46] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:46] <Parisi_work> islan compiz/etc ?
[05:46] <cello_rasp> pss: the linux flash player is developed closed source by Adobe :o
[05:46] <meoblast001> dystopianray: it cant loop audio and it closes the browser after uploading a file
[05:46] <drashok> ok:) i will do those n let u know
[05:46] <quaal> is transmission bittorrent client not in the repos ?
[05:46] <islan> Parisi_work, I'm sorry, compiz?
[05:47] <ShockSMX> drashok: try pressing CTRL+ALT+F1 or F2 or something, see if any of the terminals respond
[05:47] <drashok> ok:)
[05:47] <dystopianray> meoblast001: the only people who can fix it are at adobe
[05:47] <Parisi_work> islan 3D accelerated GUI
[05:47] <meoblast001> dystopianray: and thats why i need help fixing windows
[05:47] <meoblast001> but i dont have a disk
[05:47] <meoblast001> Dell never gave me it
[05:48] <meoblast001> i should sue there asses
[05:48] <islan> Parisi_work, I think the screensaver is, but I turned that to a blank screen'
[05:48] <dystopianray> meoblast001: this isn't windows support, go here ##windows
[05:48] <rt> yep.
[05:48] <cello_rasp> meoblast: backup, download windows iso and use a valid licence
[05:48] <drashok> il do memory check  :) thnks
[05:48] <CSTrippie> meoblast001, you should have a recovery partition on your HD with a reccovery image for your dell.
[05:48] <islan> Parisi_work, but that has been the case on previous sound problems
[05:48] <islan> Parisi_work, don't know how to fix it in Ubuntu though
[05:48] <saeed> hi all
[05:49] <ShockSMX> dragon: i just installed ubuntu myself, i'm no expert :)
[05:49] <saeed> how do I change the look of an icon in gnome?
[05:49] <drashok> punch ctrl + alt + F1/F2 n c
[05:49] <saeed> I have these nice icons
[05:49] <cello_rasp> saeed: be more specific please
[05:49] <ShockSMX> yeah, that might show you if any other terminals are available
[05:49] <saeed> I used to just right-click in KDE, then click on the icon
[05:49] <Parisi_work> islan Fix what problem?
[05:49] <saeed> and select what it will look like
[05:49] <cello_rasp> saeed: in the panel? in the file manager? in the desktop?
[05:49] <ShockSMX> drashok: should work all the way up through F7
[05:50] <saeed> in nautilus
[05:50] <islan> Parisi_work, noise caused by lack of 3D acceleration
[05:50] <cello_rasp> saeed: no. you can add 'emblems' to icons, though.
[05:50] <ShockSMX> drashok: and if you can get at one of the other TTY's, then the advice here might help you
[05:50] <ShockSMX> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279884
[05:50] <drashok> ok and i do not know how relevant this is firefox has stopped since then
[05:51] <drashok> i c :)
[05:51] <nickrud> saeed, you can right click, select properties, then click the icon in the dialog window to pick a different one
[05:51] <Parisi_work> islan try a different distro, see if it does the same thing, maybe its all in your head :p
[05:51] <quingin> random question when i try and join a different server with xChat it crashes does anyone know how i can find out why? i am new to ubuntu.
[05:51] <ShockSMX> drashok: looks like one of the ways people solved this is by installing from the "alternate cd" instead of the "live cd"
[05:51] <JNowka> Does anyone know how to make a .deb from the new mesa 7.0.1 source? I tried earlier and all I got was a 1.6M .deb.
[05:52] <islan> Parisi_work, nah, this is definitely noisy.  but I think I'm starting to find some articles now that I've narrowed it down, thanks
[05:52] <ShockSMX> drashok: but if you specifically need to run linux off the cd, you can also try gentoo or knoppix, which are other popular linux distros
[05:52] <cello_rasp> drashok: i agree with SMX, the alternate install has worked for me as well
[05:52] <Parisi_work> islan Nice, good luck.
[05:52] <drashok> i do not know wht an alternate cd is. This one says cd for pc edition
[05:53] <cello_rasp> 'alternate install', means it just shows the install menu rather than is a 'live' boot CD
[05:54] <drashok> pc edition will run on x 86  based system This is  wht  is written on cd cover
[05:54] <richardjc> how can i check my system specs?
[05:54] <shk> does anyone know how to enable the wifi tray icon?
[05:54] <ShockSMX> drashok: that's probably a live cd, which means it'll boot into ubuntu from the cd before trying to install a copy on the hard drive
[05:54] <vendeta> i need help whoever know stuff about wifi chip set drivers please im me
[05:54] <richardjc> anyone?
[05:54] <faileas> !wifi > vendeta
[05:55] <richardjc> is there a cpu-z like program for linux?
[05:55] <LoveToS_pam> i know it all about wifi
[05:55] <drashok> yes
[05:55] <cello_rasp> richardjc: top

[05:58] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel: it wasn't at first but it WAS brand new... then i put it on another system (that noticed it) and formated it to ext3
[05:58] <zg_> 
[05:58] <saeed> I am trying to change the look of an iconin nutilaus
[05:58] <timewriter> hi
[05:58] <cello_rasp> not even a viagra ad !
[05:58] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: Not sure then.
[05:58] <Some_Person> Please help me!
[05:58] <timewriter> is there any GUI for cpu speed settings ?
[05:58] <LonerVamp> I just did a round of updates for Feist, and after a reboot, my vmware server won't start...anyone run into that recently?
[05:58] <drashok> ShockSMX i will do the memory check then CTRL+ALT+F1 to F12
[05:58] <Some_Person> Please help me!
[05:59] <Some_Person> I get an error when starting my Ubuntu Feisty install into GNOME (this started when I installed "kubuntu-desktop" and dependencies to add KDE to Ubuntu. The error is similar to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=73636
[05:59] <IdleOne> Some_Person: ask a question first
[05:59] <quingin> some_person is your hard drive ntfs?
[05:59] <timewriter> what error
[05:59] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel: did i mess it up by formatting it? or does that not matter with an external hard drive?? and btw is there some command to type names faster ... ie instead of TYPING Ahadiel:
[05:59] <Some_Person> I have an NTFS partition.
[06:00] <quingin> that may be it. not sure i have had issues with my externals connecting because they are ntfs
[06:00] <saeed> I right click on it -> selected properties -> clicked on the icon, but nothing appears in the window
[06:00] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: Well, most irc clients (not gaim) support tabbing to auto-complete someone's name.
[06:00] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel: oooh yah that did that LOL
[06:00] <saeed> in KDE, it's right-click->properties->select whichever
[06:00] <quingin> sorry i not a lot of help im new to ubuntu. i got a program from the repos that allows ubuntu to have read write in ntfs
[06:00] <neg6> I just finished installing ubuntu 7.04 server edition on a dell poweredge 2900 dedicated server, but Im unable to get the internet working
[06:01] <saeed> how do i do the same in gnome?
[06:01] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: And no, shouldn't matter if it was formatted by something else.
[06:01] <quingin> NTFS configuration tool
[06:01] <saeed> where are the icons in gnome?
[06:01] <quingin> try that if you havent
[06:01] <Parisi_work> bbl
[06:01] <neg6> its connected directly and i tried doing what was said at the bottom of this post :http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224987
[06:01] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel: there isn't some super secret thingy installed in it that tells a system what you've plugged into the machine... it just KNOWS its a hard drive
[06:01] <Some_Person> I get an error when starting my Ubuntu Feisty install into GNOME This started when I installed "kubuntu-desktop" and dependencies to add KDE to Ubuntu. The error is similar to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=73636
[06:01] <bluebanana> i need a good WYSIWYG website design software for ubuntu. Kompozer doesn't seem to be friendly with me
[06:01] <bluebanana> please advise
[06:02] <keen101> is the VESA driver used by default on Live-CD's?
[06:02] <neg6> but with both eth0 and eth1 there were no DHCPOFFERS recieved
[06:02] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: I'm not sure what you mean... but try using gparted to see if it's there.
[06:02] <kahrytan> Whats the binary for compiz preferences?
[06:02] <quingin> so crap wrong person then some_person sorry about that i know someone asked about external drives
[06:02] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: sudo gparted
[06:02] <saeed> anybody knows how to change icons on the gnome in nautilus?
[06:02] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel:  i have gparted and no it didn't see it
[06:02] <saeed> i right click -> properties -> icon
[06:02] <keen101> quingin, i did the other day. :)
[06:02] <quaal> is transmission bittorrent client not in the repos ?
[06:02] <saeed> but there's nothing on the window
[06:03] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: You sure it's turned on? lol (Not sure what else)
[06:03] <Some_Person> That's ok, quingin.
[06:03] <saeed> that's how I used to change stuff in KDE
[06:03] <saeed> anybody knows where icons are?
[06:03] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel:  the problem is not that its not unmoiunted... the problem is that the system doesn't see it.. no matter what usb port i plug it into...
[06:03] <keen101> is the VESA driver used by default on Live-CD's?
[06:03] <saeed> in gnome?
[06:03] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel:  yah its on
[06:03] <IdleOne> saeed: /usr/share/pixmaps
[06:03] <dystopianray> keen101: only if there is no other driver
[06:04] <Some_Person> VESA is default on live cd, no matter what
[06:04] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: Do you have any windows computers? you could try formatting it to NTFS, then later back to ext3 once it gets recognized under ubuntu.
[06:04] <keen101> ok, so it uses VESA by default?
[06:04] <dystopianray> Some_Person: that's not true
[06:04] <Some_Person> Although you CAN force it to use the nvidia-glx driver
[06:04] <quingin> i do have a question though. whenever i try and change servers in xchat it crashes running ubuntu feisty
[06:04] <kahrytan> Whats the binary for compiz preferences?
[06:04] <dystopianray> keen101: no it doesn't
[06:04] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel:  LOL nope not a single windows machine in my house
[06:04] <keen101> I'm confused.
[06:04] <saeed> the icons I just installed are not in /usr/share/pixmaps
[06:04] <dystopianray> keen101: it doesn't use vesa by default
[06:04] <saeed> anyone has another suggestion?
[06:05] <Some_Person> it does use vesa by default
[06:05] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: hrm, not sure what else. You may want to try searching the ubuntuforums
[06:05] <Some_Person> on the boot menu
[06:05] <keen101> dystopianray, then what does it use by default?
[06:05] <dystopianray> Some_Person: no it does not
[06:05] <Some_Person> yes it does
[06:05] <dystopianray> keen101: whatever driver your card takes
[06:05] <bluebanana> what's a good WYSIWYG editor for making simple websites?
[06:05] <ProN00b> jayde_drag0n, if gparted doesn't see it its likely that its broken
[06:05] <dystopianray> Some_Person: if you have nvidia it uses nv, intel it uses i810, etc..
[06:05] <Some_Person> mine is an nvidia card, and it always uses VESA by default
[06:05] <saeed> WHERE ARE THE ICONS IN UBUNTU?
[06:05] <dystopianray> Some_Person: probably becuase nv doesn't support your card
[06:06] <ShockSMX> where do i change screen res
[06:06] <saeed> come on poeple, I just installed an icon theme
[06:06] <Some_Person> but it does
[06:06] <faileas> bluebanana: never found one thats nice in any OS, personally
[06:06] <saeed> where are the actual icons?
[06:06] <keen101> dystopianray, so it detects what card you have, and then picks a driver?
[06:06] <bluebanana> faileas, really?
[06:06] <Jack_Sparrow> IT does try to determine the right card...  but you can force vesa..
[06:06] <dystopianray> keen101: that's right
[06:06] <bluebanana> faileas, it doesn't have to have the features of a dreamweaver. i'm just making a simple websit
[06:06] <faileas> bluebanana: yeah... which probably explains why i don't design webpages
[06:06] <IdleOne> bluebanana: quanta
[06:07] <keen101> dystopianray, so is it possible to select the VESA driver on an external HDD Ubuntu install, so that it works with most random computers?
[06:07] <bluebanana> IdleOne, is that WYSIWYG?
[06:07] <IdleOne> yes
[06:07] <saeed> WHERE ARE THE ICONS IN UBUNTU?
[06:07] <ShockSMX> ah, never mind, i'm a moron
[06:07] <dystopianray> keen101: you can set the vesa driver after you install
[06:07] <saeed> can someone answer
[06:07] <IdleOne> saeed: caps off and relax
[06:07] <saeed> please?
[06:07] <keen101> dystopianray, yeah i know.
[06:07] <timewriter> saeed no need to caps
[06:07] <Some_Person> Jack_Sparrow: So why does it use VESA by default? nv at least would be good, if not nvidia-glx (whih i figured out how to force-use after starting up)
[06:07] <dystopianray> keen101: or you should be able to get the same init script the livecd uses to select a driver
[06:07] <timewriter> be more explicit in your question
[06:07] <dystopianray> keen101: so that you can boot on any pc and it'll pick an appropriate driver
[06:07] <jayde_drag0n> Ahadiel: nope not broken i JUST plugged it into my ubuntu laptop... sees it fine
[06:07] <ShockSMX> hmm, can ubuntu handle wide-screen resolutions? i don't see anything listed.
[06:07] <Ahadiel> saeed: Maybe no one knows, or perhaps some do but are AFK.
[06:08] <keen101> dystopianray, that would be very neat.
[06:08] <timewriter> yes it can
[06:08] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: it can
[06:08] <timewriter> u need the right drivers
[06:08] <ShockSMX> ah, ok
[06:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Some_Person: IT tries to determine your video setup and uses vesa if it cant..
[06:08] <bluebanana> IdleOne, i currenty have it open, but all quanta plus is showing me is code. how do i get the graphical view?
[06:08] <Ahadiel> jayde_drag0n: I'm not an expert, but check both fstab files.
[06:08] <saeed> Isee that some poeple are helpful here
[06:08] <IdleOne> saeed: /usr/share/ ...
[06:08] <keen101> dystopianray, do you know where/how to get that script?
[06:08] <faileas> ShockSMX: yes. but during install you will REALLY want to use the cheatcode for the right res
[06:08] <elkbuntu> bluebanana, NVU is ok, it's currently unmaintained, so isnt in the repos, but there is a .deb at nvu.com
[06:08] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: try running this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[06:08] <dystopianray> keen101: no, sorry
[06:08] <saeed> IdleOne: I checked it out, they are not there
[06:08] <IdleOne> bluebanana: I know there is an option in there to change the view not sure where
[06:08] <ShockSMX> faileas: i've installed. running it now.
[06:08] <keen101> dystopianray, thanks. you were very helpful anyway.
[06:08] <timewriter> saeed check System . preferences , theme , icons
[06:08] <konam> saeed /usr/share/pixmaps /usr/share/icons
[06:09] <IdleOne> saeed: for what application?
[06:09] <bluebanana> does anybody here know how i can get Quanta Plus to be WYSIWYG?
[06:09] <ShockSMX> dystopianray: will do
[06:09] <saeed> got it people
[06:09] <timewriter> if that is what u want
[06:09] <bluebanana> elkbuntu, i'm having problems with kompozer/nvu.
[06:09] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: make sure you select the correct driver though
[06:09] <saeed> THANKS a lot IdleOne
[06:09] <Some_Person> Jack_Sparrow: When I use dpkg-reconfigure and autodetect my card, it chooses nv
[06:09] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: then selecet all the resolutions you want to bea ble to use
[06:09] <dystopianray> Some_Person: what card do you have?
[06:09] <zbadone> anybody using Netbeans for Rails dev?
[06:09] <ShockSMX> ok
[06:10] <elkbuntu> bluebanana, dont know what to suggest then. i dont wysiwyg :-/

[06:10] <kahrytan> PLEASE someone help me. Where is the compiz preferences?
[06:10] <richardjc> anyone?
[06:10] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: ccsm
[06:10] <sandaru1> zbadone: aptana is better than netbean for rails, isn't it?
[06:10] <ShockSMX> dystopianray: hmm, i don't know what the right driver would be. this is a laptop, everything's integrated.
[06:11] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Or, Preferences => Compiz blah lah
[06:11] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: pastebin your lspci output
[06:11] <zbadone> sandaru1: I'm trying both at the moment
[06:11] <keen101> All video cards since about 1995 support the VESA standard which supports all high resolution modes like 800x600 and 1024x768 and higher. right?
[06:11] <bluebanana> elkbuntu, can i show you a bit of html code? I wanted a simple table of links on the left of an image, but when i removed the top cell, they all jumped to the right of the image.
[06:11] <johnficca> how does one apply a patch before you compile what is the command for that?
[06:11] <ShockSMX> one sec
[06:11] <dystopianray> keen101: that sounds right
[06:11] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, Nope to the second one

[06:11] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, and ccsm is useless
[06:12] <saeed> when one installs an icons theme, where is it located?
[06:12] <elkbuntu> bluebanana, ok. pastebin it
[06:12] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Hold on, I"ll find you the package to install
[06:12] <ShockSMX> dystopianray: Intel Corpration Mobile Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[06:12] <bluebanana> elkbuntu, wanna talk in offtopic?
[06:12] <saeed> I have installed 2 icon themes, but I can't locate them
[06:12] <sandaru1> zbadone: ah.. how is it? netbeans?
[06:12] <zbadone> just trying to figure out how to display the log files
[06:12] <Kouros> anyone here know a little bit about VNC and ssh?
[06:12] <saeed> anyone knows where they are installed?
[06:12] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: there is no number?
[06:12] <timewriter> anyone knows a GUI to control cpu clock speed ?
[06:12] <ShockSMX> dystopianray: 945GM/GMS/940GML
[06:12] <zbadone> sandaru1: its nice, but I am lost!
[06:12] <kahrytan> quingin, thats the binary though.
[06:12] <dystopianray> ShockSMX: select 'i810'
[06:12] <intelikey> i'm at   127.0.0.1:631   and it want's the user name and password before i can do anything      anyone ?
[06:12] <ShockSMX> dystopianray: thanks
[06:13] <kahrytan> quingin, What is
[06:13] <timewriter> i have EIST enabled and my cpu runs at 2.40 ghz instead of 3.40
[06:13] <Kouros> *timewriter* GUI tool for CPU speed are you using GNOME?
[06:13] <timewriter> yes
[06:13] <timewriter> gnome i use
[06:13] <dystopianray> timewriter: it'll increase the clock speed automaticallyw
[06:13] <mannytu> saeed: should be in your theme
[06:13] <timewriter> i dont like that
[06:13] <timewriter> i need it at full speed
[06:13] <sandaru1> zbadone: i read somewhere in the net that you can change gedit to act like textmate
[06:13] <Kouros> have you loaded the CPU Freq monitor applet?
[06:13] <zbadone> sandaru1: I've already done that, as wsell
[06:13] <timewriter> yes
[06:14] <zbadone> trying them all out
[06:14] <dystopianray> timewriter: it'll make your cpu run cooler and use less power
[06:14] <zbadone> even a few on windows platform, using VMware
[06:14] <timewriter> yes but more lazy also
[06:14] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, compiz-tray-icon doesnt have it
[06:14] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[06:14] <zbadone> anybody have a Toshiba A205-s4577 without sound working?
[06:15] <zbadone> Mine is finally working!!!
[06:15] <zbadone> so it is possible
[06:15] <timewriter> Kouros , the cpu freq monitor doesnt allow me to change the speed
[06:15] <timewriter> it just monitorize it
[06:15] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, not valid
[06:16] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: we're talking about compiz fusion, right?
[06:16] <zbadone> any Smoothwall users in the house?
[06:16] <sandaru1> anybody know how to configure the Prolink Hurricane 9600 usb adsl modem?
[06:17] <timburke> Hey all
[06:17] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, Nope. Compiz
[06:17] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: I'm not sure if it has one.. and why not switch over to compiz-fusion?
[06:17] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, I'm not upgrading. I'll wait for gutsy
[06:17] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Ah, well incase you want it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[06:17] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, I don't trust compiz group repo
[06:18] <ectospasm> is there any way I can grab what $DISPLAY values there are at any time?  Basically, I want to write a script that pops up a GUI program on another user's display... something like "sudo -u <user1> <script on user1's $DISPLAY>"
[06:18] <timburke> I'm still having trouble getting the ability to compile
[06:18] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, Gutsy will have fusion right?
[06:18] <jimmygoon> Are there any kernel updates coming down the pipe? I hate recompiling the vmware-module each time....
[06:19] <popcorn> Could some one help me set up my gmail email account with evolution?
[06:19] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Yeah, I've used tribe 4, but it doesn't come with a config app for it.
[06:19] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: You have 3 options, No Effects, Normal Effects, or Full Effects.
[06:19] <sandaru1> popcorn: it's in the gmail web site
[06:19] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, Probably to cut down on confused people
[06:19] <neg6> uh, anyone had experience with ubuntu server and networking and can pm me? :P
[06:19] <Bobby> Hello everyone, I am a new Linux user just here to try and learn a little bit about Linux, what you can do with it and how you do it.
[06:19] <PinkFloyd> !build-essentials
[06:19] <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!)
[06:19] <dystopianray> neg6: just ask your question in here
[06:19] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, The settings can be confusing for newbies
[06:19] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: You can however install the package I mentioned earlier.
[06:20] <Bobby> Can you tell me if this is the best way to start
[06:20] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Making it easy to configure
[06:20] <timburke> I tried to use the compiling software guide
[06:20] <neg6> dystopianray: ok then, but its kinda long
[06:20] <timburke> it did not work
[06:20] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, you use dogfood repo?
[06:20] <popcorn> sandaru1: Can you link me, I don't see it.
[06:20] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: yeah, the same one from that link
[06:21] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Works excellent
[06:21] <punto> hi.. is there a way to see the output from an installation script run by dpkg? I'm getting "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 10" but I can't see what the error is
[06:21] <neg6> ive setup ubuntu server 7.04 on a dell poweredge 2900 server, and the setup went ok up until dhcp. There are 2 eth, eth0 and eth1 (which the ethernet is plugged into NIC1 on the back), and neither were able to configure dhcp. I choose to configure later, and now that im booted im trying to figure out how to make it connect to the net, any ideas?
[06:21] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, I wish they didnt merge
[06:21] <timewriter> i cant remove powersaved , without removing the ubuntu-desktop
[06:21] <timewriter> this is bad
[06:21] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: What do you mean?
[06:21] <dystopianray> neg6: do you have a dhcp server on the network?
[06:21] <sin2gen2> timewriter:  not really
[06:21] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, because compiz team understood that adv settings can confuse many people
[06:21] <mannytu> Bobby: ubotu knows all!
[06:22] <timewriter> this is what it says if i want to remove it
[06:22] <neg6> dystopianray: i THINK so, this is actually setup connected to my home router.. im on a laptop that connects with dhcp wifi
[06:22] <timewriter> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[06:22] <timewriter>   ubuntu-desktop libcpufreq0 powersaved libpowersave10
[06:22] <timewriter> lol
[06:22] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Have you seen the config manager? it's soooo easy
[06:22] <sandaru1> popcorn: opps.. it's not the gmail site.. try this : http://www.debianadmin.com/configure-gmail-in-evolution-thunderbird-or-kmail.html
[06:22] <Ahadiel> kahrytan: Everything is straight foreward.
[06:22] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, I remember beryl setting manager ... way to confusing
[06:22] <Bobby> As I sit here looking at everyones comments...how doyou keep up with how is saying what....it looks very confusing...i have never been in a IRC chat session
[06:22] <neg6> dystopianray: also, if you look at that last post on this page (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224987), I have tried what he said (iface eth0 crap) with no success
[06:23] <[i] Naufragus> I'm having a problem with my video card. I try to boot ubuntu (before I even install) and, after the loading bar finishes, I get a "No Signal" message from my monitor. I'm using an ATI Radeon X1900. Does anybody know how I might be able to fix this?
[06:23] <jimmygoon> popcorn, there are step by step instructions on google's site
[06:23] <popcorn> not for evolution
[06:23] <timewriter> [i] Naufragus  did u modified the bios of the videocard ?
[06:23] <logreeval> I was going to install Ubuntu fiesty on my computer, but then the partition says It doesnt know the used space, so i cant edit the size of the partition what do i do?!?
[06:23] <[i] Naufragus> no
[06:23] <[i] Naufragus> how would i do that?
[06:23] <timewriter> what version of ubuntu are u trying to install ?
[06:23] <[i] Naufragus> 7.04
[06:23] <timewriter> hm
[06:23] <bullgard4> A large Keksi form text field reduced its height from 406 pixels over night to the minimum although the handles are still 406 pixels distant. What property of this Autofield do I have change? ('Height' property is still = 406 pixels).
[06:23] <timewriter> my vga is X1950Xt
[06:24] <timewriter> and had no problem
[06:24] <timewriter> but my modded X800GTO has the same problem
[06:24] <[i] Naufragus> hm. i even tried changing the resolution and booting in safe graphics mode
[06:24] <mannytu> Bobby: it a start... you ask for help, and then wait your turn
[06:24] <jimmygoon> popcorn, adapt it, the fields are the same, just in slightly different places
[06:24] <logreeval> someone?, should i partition it using some different partition manager first?
[06:24] <ProN00b> need a suggestion for a easy to set up ftp
[06:24] <timewriter> u can try to install the server version of 7.04
[06:24] <timewriter> then the ati drivers
[06:24] <Meroigo-laptop> i did "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" and added "//amd/amdlagring /mnt/amdlagring/ smbfs 0 0" and saved and rebooted. It was not mounted into /mnt/amdlagring.... It mounts there if i type "sudo mount -t smbfs //amd/amdlagring /mnt/amdlagring/".
[06:24] <neg6> any idea dystopianray?
[06:24] <timewriter> then bring up the desktop
[06:24] <Meroigo-laptop> Why doesn't the fstab method work?
[06:25] <timewriter> but its too much to do
[06:25] <[i] Naufragus> server version?
[06:25] <timewriter> ati is buggy sometimes
[06:25] <Bobby> so should i just paste my question/information and submit it
[06:25] <ParaDoX34690> Hey, i think I did something stupid, but I don't know what, and now the "Main Menu" icon is no longer in System > preferences... is there a way to put this back in the list??
[06:25] <timewriter> whats the manufacturer of your videocard ?
[06:25] <Meroigo-laptop> Naufragus: me? I have ubuntu server
[06:25] <dystopianray> neg6: not really, sorry

[06:27] <timewriter> well
[06:27] <timewriter> 6.10 is good
[06:27] <[i] Naufragus> can i dl that from the ubuntu site
[06:27] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, ccsm is to confusing. it should have a simple prefs

[06:28] <johnficca> is there somewhere I can get the moonlight plugin for ubuntu feisty i386?
[06:28] <timewriter> i run 6.10 too
[06:28] <mannytu> Bobby: to use Linux, you need a lion's heart, and you need to know a little Linux commands
[06:28] <timewriter> 7.04 had some issues with me :)
[06:28] <PinkFloyd> Im having trouble installing a game. It says I need pygame. Where can I get that?
[06:28] <kahrytan> Ahadiel, way to many options
[06:28] <paotzu> Meroigo-laptop: change "smbfs" to "smb"
[06:28] <Bobby> Can someone please help me as this is what I am trying to do:
[06:28] <Bobby> I have a  computer (Compaq 5300US / Intel Celeron Processor 1.1GHz / 320MB SyncDRAM / 40GB HDD / 2 Ethernet network cards / 6MB download & 1MB upload Fiber Internet connection / CD-RW / Running Ubuntu Christian Edition vers. 7.04) that I am dedicating to be a Linux Server.
[06:28] <Bobby> I am trying to setup this machine so that I can take my my internet connection from the wall and send it into the eth0 Ethernet card (to supply the internet to the network).  Then I want to send the internet out through the eth1 Ethernet card (to supply the internet to all other PCs on the network).
[06:28] <Bobby> So far I have got the eth0 Ethernet card to accept the incoming internet signal (I am using that connection right now).
[06:28] <PinkFloyd> !pygame
[06:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pygame - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:28] <Bobby> But, how do I setup theeth1 Ethernet network card to allow the internet to pass onto all the other PCs on the network.
[06:29] <olrrai> hi, anyone knows how to install the postscript printer port (to print to PDF) ?
[06:29] <keen101> Naufragus, if 6.10 doesent work, then u could wait for the new gutsy release that is coming up. It might fix you rproblem.
[06:29] <timewriter> PinkFloyd www.pygame.org
[06:29] <PinkFloyd> kthx
[06:29] <popcorn> hahaha my Linux crashed when I was doing nothing
[06:29] <[i] Naufragus> what's the difference between the desktop edition and the server editon
[06:29] <PinkFloyd> no X server
[06:29] <PinkFloyd> on the server
[06:29] <timewriter> popcorn u have been hacked by Microsoft
[06:29] <PinkFloyd> just console
[06:29] <[i] Naufragus> would the server edition have any more chance of working than the desktop
[06:29] <[i] Naufragus> oh
[06:29] <timewriter> [i] Naufragus
[06:29] <keen101> Naufragus, server means text only.
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> oh ok
[06:30] <timewriter> if u install the server edition , then the ati drivers
[06:30] <timewriter> it will work 100 %
[06:30] <Pho5365> So, uh, I have no idea how to install ntfsclone.
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> oh really
[06:30] <timewriter> yes
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> what would be the command to install the ati driver
[06:30] <winwinwin> outlook express vs thunderbird?
[06:30] <timewriter> there are more than one command :)
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> damn
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> well is there any way i can boot a command line interface only
[06:30] <craigbass1976> I want to run a script at boot, but only after the machine has an ip address.  How do I do that?
[06:30] <[i] Naufragus> without the gui
[06:31] <timewriter> check this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.40.4_Driver_Manually
[06:31] <PinkFloyd> [i] Naufragus, just shutdown the X server
[06:31] <timewriter> yes , the server version is command line only
[06:31] <PinkFloyd> /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[06:31] <craigbass1976> [i] Naufragus, init 2 maybe?  Not sure how runlevels work in Ubuntu
[06:31] <timewriter> he cant boot from CD
[06:31] <bullgard4> Ein Keksi-Textfenster hat sich ber Nacht unerwnschterweise stark in der Hhe verringert (auf das Minimum). Welche Eigenschaft mu ich ndern? (Eigenschaft 'Hhe' ist unverndert = 406 Pixel.)
[06:31] <timewriter> because boot stops
[06:31] <kkathman> Doent Rhythmbox have an equilizer??
[06:31] <holzmodem> i want to use the xfce window manage in kde, but xfwm4 --replace doesnt work. whats wrong?
[06:31] <sin2gen2> [i] Naufragus:  i think feisty thinks it can support your card and installs xorg-driver-fglrx
[06:31] <logreeval> what is the Ubuntu partition format.... EXT3 or ExT2?
[06:31] <ParaDoX34690> So, anybody know how to reset the System > Preferences application list??
[06:31] <timewriter> i know that thing i had it too
[06:31] <keen101> Naufragus, did you try "recovery mode" at grub?
[06:31] <[i] Naufragus> i don't think so
[06:31] <PinkFloyd> logreeval, ext3
[06:31] <dystopianray> logreeval: ext3 is the default
[06:31] <craigbass1976> logreeval, 3
[06:31] <sin2gen2> [i] Naufragus:  try changing it to vesa and checking it out maybe?
[06:32] <logreeval> cool, thanks
[06:32] <timewriter> ParaDoX34690 what u mean by reset ?
[06:32] <paotzu> Meroigo-laptop: does it work now with "smb?"
[06:32] <keen101> Naufragus, VESA might work.
[06:32] <jellymaster> can someone help me out i'm following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/LinksysWUSB54GC?highlight=%28WifiDocs%29%7C%28AND%29%7C%28ManufacturerModel%29 but I don't understand this:Unpack the driver source code, cd to the Module subdirectory" when I unpack,which I was guessing was just extracting it,there's only the two subdirectory no files named CD or am i missin...
[06:32] <timewriter> u can right click on the applications tab
[06:32] <jellymaster> ...somethin
[06:32] <logreeval> i am goint o use GParted to pre-partition........good idea?
[06:32] <timewriter> and customize
[06:32] <logreeval> for my feisty install that is.
[06:32] <ParaDoX34690> timewriter: Through some event, probably of my own stupidity, the "Main Menu" option isn't available.. .so Now I can't modify any of my menus
[06:32] <Aval0n_> guys, I'm going out of my mind. I am running ubuntu. I have a nvidia 7300gs running hdmi out to my samsung PDP. I have the desktop resolution set at 1280x720 and nvidia-settings the same. I tried force scaling in nvidia-settings, but it's still cutting off the top and bottom of the screen. Any suggestions?
[06:32] <dystopianray> jellymaster: 'cd' is a command, you need to go into the 'Module' directory
[06:32] <keen101> logreeval, I reccomend Gparted Live-CD.
[06:33] <neg6> anybody know how to solve this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3214453#post3214453 (kind of long, so just linking)
[06:33] <logreeval> ;) yeap
[06:33] <timewriter> did u tried to right click in the Applications tab
[06:33] <timewriter> ?
[06:33] <timewriter> oh
[06:33] <[i] Naufragus> ok, so, if i download the server edition, update the driver, i can then change over to the desktop edition?
[06:33] <phoekitty04> wow  this is an impressive number of nicks in this room
[06:33] <timewriter> u can Add it to panel
[06:33] <ParaDoX34690> timewriter: you know, that worked great... duh... i didn't even think of that...
[06:33] <timewriter> :)
[06:34] <brianski> what exactly is gnome doing when it is "thumbnailing" an audio clip?
[06:34] <bluebanana> sudo aptitude install tidy --> nothing installs
[06:34] <bluebanana> help
[06:34] <keen101> Naufragus, It might be worth to try the VESA driver first....
[06:34] <[i] Naufragus> what's that
[06:34] <Olgem> D:
[06:34] <timewriter> Unpacking tidy (from .../tidy_20051018-1_i386.deb) ...
[06:34] <timewriter> Setting up libtidy-0.99-0 (20051018-1) ...
[06:34] <jellymaster> dystopianray: so I go into the module directory and do what? or do I go to the terminal and do CD Module?
[06:34] <timewriter> works for me bluebanana
[06:34] <keen101> All video cards since about 1995 support the VESA standard which supports all high resolution modes like 800x600 and 1024x768 and higher.
[06:34] <neg6> anyone at all? or is my problems a mystery :P
[06:35] <dystopianray> jellymaster: opan a terminal, run 'cd Module', then follow the rest of the instructions
[06:35] <bluebanana> oh, it's because i already have tidy
[06:35] <keen101> neg6, maybe everyone is too lazy to even look at it. :)
[06:35] <towlie> how do i edit a shortcut in the applications menu
[06:35] <timewriter> lol
[06:35] <jellymaster> ok thank you very much dystopianray I'll try this now,sorry I'm a lil confused about some of this stuff just got back from a vacation,but my brain is still there
[06:36] <neg6> keen101: i hope thats the case, cause im not so good at this but am willing to try anything :)
[06:36] <Olgem> jellymaster, if you need more help ask at a different time of day again. :P
[06:36] <timewriter> thats not an excuse jellymaster *joking*
[06:36] <dystopianray> why is ndiswrapper-utils no longer in the repos?
[06:36] <keen101> neg6, keep trying. :)
[06:36] <[i] Naufragus> PinkFloyd, what did you mean when you said shut down the x server?
[06:36] <neg6> anybody know how to solve this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3214453#post3214453 (kind of long, so just linking)
[06:37] <PinkFloyd> [i] Naufragus, you said you needed to run a script after the computer had an IP address
[06:37] <keen101> neg6, but it does help if you can be a specific as possible. (instead of ONLY linking)
[06:37] <PinkFloyd> just shutdown the X server, run the script, and start it back up
[06:37] <neg6> keen101: thats my post
[06:37] <neg6> anything else you need just ask me
[06:37] <neg6> and i can give details
[06:38] <arooni__> do i need anything

[06:39] <timewriter> so u need to install the pluggins

[06:41] <arooni__> timewriter, E: Package libdvdcss2 has no installation candidate

[06:42] <timewriter> uhm
[06:42] <timewriter> do you have the multiverse enabled ?
[06:42] <b14ck> hey.how stable is the 64 bit version? have all the 32 bit packages been ported to 64 bit version yet?
[06:42] <b14ck> can i get flash player, etc, working/
[06:42] <timewriter> u dont need 64bit b14ck
[06:42] <b14ck> why not
[06:42] <BoyChineseKL> hello any one can teach me on ubuntu, pm me thx
[06:42] <timewriter> coz the performance is not so amazing as u think
[06:42] <arooni__> timewriter, yes multiverse is enabled
[06:42] <timewriter> i mean the difference between 386 and 64bit
[06:42] <b14ck> i dont think its amazing. i just want to know how stale it is
[06:42] <keen101> b14ck, I have heard that not every 64 bit program works stable......
[06:43] <b14ck> ok then.
[06:43] <b14ck> thanks
[06:43] <timewriter> arooni_ i cant remember exactly , check goole also
[06:43] <timewriter> google
[06:43] <b14ck> thats all i wanted to know
[06:43] <timewriter> there are many codecs and never remember them
[06:43] <keen101> b14ck, but it might be worth a try.
[06:43] <wckdkl0wn> i need some advice from someone that already runs diablo 2 lod on linux... how do u get it to play on bnet without the cd? i tryed using d2loader but it tells me that bnet cant idenitfy my version
[06:43] <Pho5365> Could anyone please direct me where I might find a guide that explained how to install and use ntfsprogs, specifically ntfsclone?
[06:43] <timewriter> b14ck , 64bit is stable enought
[06:43] <timewriter> enough* even
[06:43] <timewriter> i have tested it
[06:43] <ShockSMX> bluebanana: you don't
[06:43] <ShockSMX> bluebanana: you'll be fine
[06:44] <ShockSMX> bluebanana: but if you must, just go to the w3 site for html
[06:44] <neg6> wckdkl0wn: you need a cdkey if you want to play.. ?
[06:44] <bluebanana> ShockSMX, i don't have to learn html first?
[06:44] <bluebanana> cool
[06:44] <keen101> b14ck, .... I would say *Give 64bit a shot!*
[06:44] <ShockSMX> bluebanana: trust me, they're not like programming languages or anything. they're just markup languages, which means there's nothing to learn.
[06:44] <wckdkl0wn> neg6: yes.. the game plays with the cd no prob.. but my cd is really really really scratched that it laggs me real bad in the game
[06:44] <keen101> ...and if it doesent work out.... then there is always 32bit.
[06:45] <timewriter> ubuntu 64bit is more stable then windows xp lol
[06:45] <timewriter> than*
[06:45] <bluebanana> ShockSMX, i hope i learn the basics really quickly.
[06:45] <ShockSMX> k
[06:45] <timewriter> ati control center wont start tho
[06:45] <timewriter> on 64 bit
[06:45] <neg6> wckdkl0wn: can you make an iso and mount in virtual?
[06:45] <timewriter> needed to install some i386 libs
[06:45] <neg6> or even download an iso (if you own the real version not warez XD)
[06:46] <Mexandrew> Hello, #ubuntu. Today I come with a rather silly question, but I hope you can help me out with this. I need to use a commandline text editor whose name I forgot, and I wondered if you could tell me the name... Not vi, BTW.
[06:46] <dystopianray> neg6: you can mount an iso, yes
[06:46] <wckdkl0wn> neg6: i tryed to make an iso of the game but its copy protected somehow and fails to make iso at 99%
[06:46] <neg6> Mexandrew: pico? nano?
[06:46] <keen101> timewriter, I hope 64bit Ubuntu is better than windows!
[06:46] <timewriter> it is
[06:46] <bluebanana> guys, i'm testing out bluefish. how come there's no color coding of html?
[06:46] <timewriter> for sure
[06:46] <keen101> ...otherwise.....
[06:46] <Mexandrew> neg6: it's probably nano... I think
[06:46] <dystopianray> neg6: oh nevermind me I thought you were asking a question :p
[06:46] <Mexandrew> Let me try
[06:46] <neg6> dystopianray: nope, not that easy XD
[06:46] <timewriter> well , i cant play world of warcraft on ubuntu
[06:46] <bluebanana> does bluefish have built in ftp?
[06:46] <timewriter> otherwise ill send xp to trash
[06:46] <wckdkl0wn> neg6: beside the ppl over at winehq said that wine will not and can not suport virtual cds or soemthing like that
[06:46] <neg6> timewriter: at least you can connect to the stupid internet
[06:46] <Mexandrew> Yeah, that was it, sorry for wasting your time with it, but I appreciate it
[06:47] <Mexandrew> Now, to install that stubborn nvidiaglx legacy driver...
[06:47] <Mexandrew> See you all later! and thanks!
[06:47] <timewriter> neg6 , internet is better on linux than any ms stuff
[06:47] <keen101> timewriter, i heard with wine doors WOW would work.
[06:47] <timewriter> i dont like emulators
[06:47] <theone> hey i just installed ubuntu and my drivers/updates, anything that is a must have that i should look into getting?
[06:47] <neg6> timewriter, if i had it :)
[06:47] <ShockSMX> can i turn off the motherboard sounds that the command line triggers sometimes
[06:47] <timewriter> especially wine
[06:47] <ShockSMX> it's fucking annoying
[06:47] <dystopianray> timewriter: wine is not an emulator
[06:47] <timewriter> neg6 what you dont have ?
[06:47] <neg6> the internet
[06:47] <neg6> lol
[06:47] <timewriter> dystopianray my english is bad
[06:48] <theone> ha but any good programs/ stuff u would recommend?
[06:48] <timewriter> neg6 , u are on internet now
[06:48] <neg6> i _cannot_ connect at all
[06:48] <neg6> im using a laptop
[06:48] <neg6> to connect
[06:48] <neg6> comp that has ubuntu cannot connect at all
[06:48] <timewriter> lol
[06:48] <timewriter> u have dhcp line ?
[06:48] <neg6> it error'd during the DHCP of install
[06:48] <keen101> yesh. wine is a compatibility layer... right?
[06:48] <timewriter> haha
[06:48] <neg6> and so i just said to skip it
[06:48] <timewriter> manually edit the network interface
[06:48] <neg6> it has 2 ethernet ports, one of them is connected
[06:48] <timewriter> and it will work
[06:48] <neg6> manually added line to it
[06:48] <neg6> face eth0 inet dhcp
[06:48] <neg6> auto eth0
[06:49] <neg6> iface*
[06:49] <keen101> the actual name of wine is:  Wine Is Not an Emulator.
[06:49] <keen101> heh.
[06:49] <holzmodem> hi, how can i replace kwin with xfwm4?
[06:49] <timewriter> its an emulator
[06:49] <Pho5365> Can't install Ubuntu because of a bad sector. Ubuntu's recommending ntfsclone. Have no idea what to do now.
[06:49] <timewriter> with another description
[06:49] <keen101> timewriter, I would think so myself.
[06:49] <keen101> but, who knows.
[06:49] <timewriter> even if they call it a IMPLEMENTATION
[06:49] <neg6> any idea timewriter?
[06:49] <theone> ifconfig
[06:49] <timewriter> neg6 i have the same problem with dhcp on my line
[06:49] <theone> try pump
[06:49] <theone> to renew it
[06:49] <timewriter> dhcp wont work with ubuntu
[06:50] <neg6> how can i configure it otherwise then?
[06:50] <timewriter> so i have configured the network manually
[06:50] <neg6> <i only have cmd line btw.
[06:50] <timewriter> and im on :)
[06:50] <neg6> timewriter: teach me :)
[06:50] <timewriter> let me remember
[06:50] <dystopianray> Phoenigore: run a chkdsk over your partition
[06:50] <Pho5365> Did.
[06:50] <timewriter> man i cant remember the commands
[06:50] <neg6> timewriter: check /etc/network/interfaces file
[06:50] <neg6> i think that would have main stuff
[06:50] <Adnan_> Hi
[06:50] <neg6> but idunno
[06:50] <timewriter> there are some commands
[06:50] <theone> did u run chkdsk with the automatic fix?
[06:51] <timewriter> with route add default gateway bla
[06:51] <timewriter> ifconfig eth0 your ip
[06:51] <timewriter> route add default gateway the gw ip
[06:51] <Pho5365> Yes. The only thing I haven't tried is the spinrite, because I don't have it.
[06:51] <ecaandrew> how is everyone
[06:51] <Jarek> everytime i startup azureus it closes on me after loading, was working fine before. Is there a command that will check if the program has everything it needs? like the fix command for wine?
[06:52] <[i] Naufragus> hey timewriter do you think 6.06 might work with my x1900
[06:52] <timewriter> ifconfig eth0 "ip" netmask 'netmasK
[06:52] <neg6> timewriter: so it would be like
[06:52] <timewriter> [i] Naufragus u can try
[06:52] <neg6> sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.35
[06:52] <timewriter> neg6 and the netmask pls
[06:52] <neg6> route add default 192.168.1.1
[06:52] <timewriter> ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.35 netmask 255.255.255.0
[06:52] <neg6> ok
[06:52] <timewriter> route add default gateway 192.168.1.1

[06:56] <theone> neg6 have u tried connecting to the router config IP?
[06:56] <neg6> theone: no since i dont know how
[06:56] <theone> what kind of a router do u have?
[06:57] <UnluckyMike> Jarek, i had the same problem, it was solved for whatever reason when I installed the azureus-gcj package with it. Since then I have moved on to deluge torrent instead.
[06:57] <neg6> im at the 192.168.1.1 right now on this computer to see the list of all the computers connected
[06:57] <neg6> its the default verizon fios router, 1sec

[06:58] <theone> 192.168.1.1 takes you to a list of computers or the router config page?
[06:58] <neg6> theone: router config page, but on main page of that gives list of computers connected
[06:58] <mannytu> theone: compiz is cool
[06:58] <neg6> which as of now is only my laptop, not the computer thats direct connected
[06:58] <neg6> [with ubuntu] 
[06:59] <Jarek> UnluckyMike, i'll try installing that package then

[07:00] <UnluckyMike> Jarek, try running azureus
[07:00] <neg6> ill try switching out the cables
[07:00] <Jarek> UnluckyMike, i did, no difference
[07:00] <theone> could be drivers needed for ur ubuntu
[07:01] <theone> u have a weird network card?
[07:01] <UnluckyMike> are you using a wierd window manager, in know java has a hard time with *other* window managers
[07:01] <Gnea> has anyone here ever setup a OSX server to serve ubuntu netboot images for remote install before?  I've searched high and low and have not been able to find anything that helps
[07:01] <theone> u could try plugging the cable into ur laptop real quick to make sure the internet works
[07:01] <timewriter> aaanone locate firefox |grep bin ?
[07:01] <neg6> theone: the computer is a server not a regular computer

[07:03] <dexter121> and how do i get to it i am new to linux and i am using ubuntu

[07:04] <Mexandrew> timewriter: From source!?
[07:04] <timewriter> form their package
[07:04] <timewriter> the nvidia package
[07:04] <timewriter> i dont think u need legacy
[07:04] <timewriter> if u have a newer videocard
[07:04] <Mexandrew> I *do* need legacy... I'm using a TNT2
[07:04] <devanampriyan> hy friends.., i had used ubuntu as a tester the first time it released.. i usually change my distro everytime something new releases... to test it out...
[07:04] <timewriter> oh
[07:04] <Gnea> !nvidia | Mexandrew
[07:04] <ubotu> Mexandrew: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:05] <timewriter> i made a confusion then
[07:05] <timewriter> with the guy with 7300GT

[07:05] <dexter121> i m new to this linux / ubuntu
[07:05] <devanampriyan> but now i want a distro to..use more long term...... ie... i need a release that has a long term bug fixes, future feature extentions and community support...
[07:06] <theone> iwlist will show the wireless stuff
[07:06] <Mexandrew> Hm, but I think I should try restarting the X server for a bit...
[07:06] <arooni__> can someone help me to play dvd movies in ubuntu?
[07:06] <theone> in a terminal
[07:06] <theone> u know how to get that?

[07:06] <dexter121> umm no not realy
[07:06] <devanampriyan> can anyone recommend me some???.... i have installed ubuntu now...6.10
[07:06] <theone> arooni_: u have to install the drivers first
[07:06] <timewriter> i see
[07:06] <UnluckyMike> Jarek, try hitting alt+f2 and type "metacity --replace"
[07:06] <UnluckyMike> rgwb run azureus
[07:06] <UnluckyMike> then*
[07:07] <Flannel> devanampriyan: 6.06 is supported until 2009.  And if you wait until april of next year, 8.04 will be supported until 2011
[07:07] <theone> try like iwlist athX scanning
[07:07] <arooni__> theone, i dont konw which drivers.... movie player doesnt prompt me to install any
[07:07] <theone> replace the X in athX with ur wireless number
[07:07] <intelikey> dpkg has a broken package   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39008
[07:07] <Jarek> no difference, screen flashed once after i ran that command, but azurues still closed after loading
[07:07] <intelikey> what should be done ?
[07:07] <dexter121> whts a wireless number
[07:07] <devanampriyan> i also heard of the LTS stuff..... so u saying other intermediate releases are not quite as well supported??
[07:07] <neg6> ok
[07:07] <neg6> i can ping it but it doesnt seem to connect to net
[07:07] <neg6> :p
[07:07] <UnluckyMike> Jarek, have you tried reinstalling
[07:08] <Mexandrew> Okay, my card is supported by the binary drivers. But first, before I do anything, I'll provide soem details
[07:08] <IdleOne> intelikey: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[07:08] <Flannel> devanampriyan: no, they're still well supported, but they're only supported for 18 months, instead of 3 years.  So you'd have less-long term
[07:08] <theone> well u just have to get the right codec for the movie
[07:08] <Mexandrew> As I have my xorg.conf file now, I have direct rendering (I saw that when I used glxinfo)
[07:08] <theone> installing a package works for most
[07:08] <Jarek> no, but when I had this  problem before, reinstalling didn't work. I'll try it now
[07:08] <ShockUBT> can i turn off the motherboard beeps that the command line keeps using
[07:08] <Mexandrew> I had to use the options "NvAGP" "1" and "AllowGLXwithComposite" "true"
[07:08] <UnluckyMike> Jarek, make sure you remove config files too
[07:08] <Jarek> delete the home folder for it?
[07:09] <UnluckyMike> yeah
[07:09] <Mexandrew> Well, let me restart my X server, then try the binary drivers. Br back in a bit
[07:09] <devanampriyan> i have used sarge... its good... support was gr8..... not got my hands on etch yet.. was too busy with rhel5 and fc6.. also dsl3.4.1 looks promising..
[07:09] <theone> to disable Motherboard beep goto System -> Pref. -> Sound then System Beep tab
[07:09] <theone> Disable the checkbox from there
[07:10] <arooni__> can someone help me to get my dvd movie thing working... a french girl will be over here in < 20 min ! ;p
[07:10] <devanampriyan> 6.10 is supported for 18 months???......
[07:10] <intelikey> IdleOne http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39009

[07:12] <foo> bruenig: Like konquerer ?
[07:12] <Jarek> UnluckyMike, should i reinstall the regular version or the -gcj one?
[07:13] <intelikey> IdleOne can't install can't remove it
[07:13] <UnluckyMike> install both
[07:13] <[i] Naufragus> jarek?
[07:13] <bruenig> foo, sure
[07:13] <fr500> hey
[07:13] <foo> bruenig: hmm, let me install it.
[07:13] <dexter121> i need help

[07:13] <dexter121> sorry
[07:13] <fr500> ?
[07:13] <dexter121> i am soo lost
[07:13] <IdleOne> intelikey: did you try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[07:13] <Jarek>  [i] Naufragus, yes?
 IdleOne http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39010
[07:13] <[i] Naufragus> sorry i thought you were someone else
[07:13] <[i] Naufragus> same name
[07:14] <IdleOne> intelikey: yeah I saw that but that isnt the command I am asking you to try
[07:14] <Jarek> ic
[07:14] <devanampriyan> but thats a little wierd..... 6.10 support from comunity expired?????
[07:14] <intelikey> IdleOne not reconfigure  no.   dpkg -a --configure
[07:14] <theone> arooni let me know if that install doesn't work, i wouldn't want the pretty french girl in 20 min to be disappointed
[07:14] <IdleOne> intelikey: try it
[07:14] <Flannel> devanampriyan: No.  It's supported for 18 months after it was released.  So april of 2008
[07:14] <intelikey> i don't have the time to waste on reconfiguring the whole system
[07:14] <intelikey> IdleOne  ^
[07:14] <arooni__> folks with the intel video codec (and integrated video drivers in general).... is there anyway to detect new auxillary displays without messing with the xorg file?  i'd like to give presentations where i hook up my t61 to a projector..... but it seems not to auto detect the new aux display... ideas?
[07:14] <IdleOne> :/
[07:14] <intelikey> and that will reconfigure things that don't need it.
[07:15] <IdleOne> intelikey: dont know what to tell you then
[07:16] <Linux-Noob>  Linux Noob: what would happen if i killed the "init" process by using sudo kill -9 1
[07:16] <intelikey> IdleOne one question then.    if i try the reconfig and it's no differnet, just wasted two hours for nothing,   what then ?
[07:16] <devanampriyan> when we migrate from 6.10 to say a current release...... any user configuration data will erase out?????....
[07:17] <theone> dont kill init
[07:17] <aaanone> I'm sorry to ask so many stupid questions, but I've installed gdm, got it to boot up automatically, but it won't let you login as root and I can't login as a regular user because one of my config files needs a change...is there a way to exist out of GDM back to the bare command line?
[07:17] <intelikey> you can't kill init
[07:17] <Flannel> devanampriyan: no, it wont.  When you upgrade everything will be upgraded and the same.  Just newer and shiny.
[07:17] <foo> bruenig: Hm, they were... and I deleted them with that. Thanks!
[07:17] <theone> no but u can do: sudo kill -9 1
[07:17] <foo> bruenig: No idea how they got there, very weird
[07:17] <Flannel> aaanone: At GRUB, choose the recovery console
[07:17] <theone> it'll crash the system eventually
[07:17] <Flannel> aaanone: Wait, which config file?
[07:17] <intelikey> theone and nothing will happen  cause you can't kill init
[07:17] <theone> cuz that's used to clean all the dead processes
[07:17] <UnluckyMike> aaanone, ctrl+alt+backspace
[07:18] <devanampriyan> so ma theme will be the same.... ma icons in desktop and my filesystem will all be intact????.....
[07:18] <arooni__> i mean driver not codec
[07:18] <theone> some linux distro's u can
[07:18] <LogicalDash> Is there any way to force the GNOME Keyboard Indicator to switch layouts using setxkbmap, rather than whatever it's doing now? I've been having problems with it.
[07:19] <hexstar> sorry about that
[07:19] <intelikey> theone um i think some earlier kernels you could,  it's a 2.6 thing i guess
[07:19] <hexstar> I didn't mean to post that here
[07:19] <theone> yep most def/
[07:19] <hexstar> but isn't anyone else experiencing the issue?
[07:19] <dexter121>  well i installed my wrlss netwrking driver and now everytime i use the wrlss netwrking it wont show me the signal strength
 but it will show my connection
 and it wnt even connect to tht connection
[07:19] <hexstar> anyone?
[07:20] <devanampriyan> i have a very funny quest.... funny because.... not many see a valid reason why i would wanna do this.. ;(
[07:20] <theone> haha those are the best
[07:20] <UnluckyMike> dexter121, what kind of wireless card
[07:20] <dexter121> its a laptop
[07:20] <sport> is it possible to setup a computer to not allow to boot from an ubuntu live CD ?
[07:20] <hexstar> !ping
[07:20] <ubotu> host not found
[07:20] <theone> yes
[07:20] <devanampriyan> can i opt for selective updates/patches to my installed packages??.. i mean... i jus want some of ma bgs to go away..and i am comfortable with the rest of it remaining
[07:20] <dexter121> averatec
[07:21] <devanampriyan> ;)
[07:21] <dystopianray> sport: remove the cdrom
[07:21] <hexstar> sport: change bios boot order
[07:21] <theone> dexter121 you change the boot setup in the bios
[07:21] <theone> ^bump :)
[07:21] <dexter121> and i dont kno how to check wht wrlss card
[07:21] <UnluckyMike> dont know much about those
[07:21] <hexstar> is anyone experiencing my issue?
[07:21] <devanampriyan> some==selective/particular
[07:21] <dexter121> i am new to linux / ubuntu
[07:21] <n3gcrp> Sport: I second the bios
[07:21] <sport> hexstar would this be a normal security measure?
[07:21] <LogicalDash> dexter121, go to a terminal, type "lspci -v", it'll be somewhere in there
[07:21] <hexstar> sport: yes, along with password protecting entry to the bios
[07:22] <bruenig> dexter121, please include vowels in your messages, we appreciate it
[07:22] <intelikey> IdleOne heh here is one thing from the recongifure command that i dont' like already   as well as changing perms all over /dev   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39011
[07:22] <hexstar> but be careful about setting a password for the bios, in some cases it is impossible to reset the bios password without replacing the physical rom chip!
[07:22] <dexter121> sorry, well my wireless networking isnt working
[07:22] <sport> bruenig vwls n r mssgs?
[07:22] <Ashfire908> is there a way to remove certian users from the login screen? like how "nobody" or root is?
[07:23] <intelikey> hexstar removing the cmos bat ?
[07:23] <spanglesontoast> anyone know much about frets on fire and fiesty
[07:23] <hexstar> intelikey: sometimes that works, unless the password is written to the bios flash which happens in some cases
[07:23] <dexter121> it shows me my connection but not the strength next to it
[07:23] <jimmygoon> Before anyone else has serious data loss, woudl the ubuntu devs PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make it so that when you reboot a computer, it writes the data to the external devices! I lost a lot of work just now because I expected that when I copied my folder to my jump drive, that it would actually be copied. I didn't remove it until the computer was off, so basically ubuntu shutdown without making sure the data was written >_<
[07:23] <theone> ya hexstar the cmos bad should work everytime
[07:23] <hexstar> why won't anyone answer my question? Every time I enter here I help someone out but no one ever helps me....
[07:23] <intelikey> hexstar point taken
[07:23] <theone> what's ur question?
[07:24] <intelikey> hexstar cause good help is hard to find.
[07:24] <arooni__> theone, i loaded all those packages... but still can't play back dvds... is there something else i should do?  rstart?
[07:24] <intelikey> hexstar repost it
[07:24] <hexstar> theone: anyone experiencing this issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=529274 ?
[07:24] <theone> hm, what format is ur dvd in it's a ripped movie or a real dvd?
[07:25] <hexstar> there's something clearly wrong with the outbound connections of the update servers I'm connecting to
[07:25] <sport> hexstar if I don't see the boot info does that mean its password protected?
[07:25] <Ashfire908> is there a way to remove certian users from the login screen? like how users like "nobody" is?
[07:25] <intelikey> hexstar quarter second for icmp ping slow  ???
[07:26] <hexstar> intelikey: yes it is in the internet world
[07:26] <intelikey> hexstar not for me.
[07:26] <theone> hexstar mine is fast
[07:26] <hexstar> it should be 15ms or less
[07:26] <intelikey> hexstar use a different mirror
[07:26] <arooni__> theone, its a real dvd
[07:26] <hexstar> I think the ubuntu dns chooses servers for users based on area and the servers for my area are overloaded or facing a ddos
[07:26] <theone> mine is 36 :( hexstar
[07:27] <hexstar> theone: that's good, mine are 200 and up!
[07:27] <dropety> hi, i have this smbfs mounting through fstab issue. it seems to delay the booting of gdm a lot and looks like it's frozen. Isn't this the normal way to have my mounts entered in fstab?
[07:27] <hexstar> and the traceroute shows that it doesn't start at the isp but at the datacenter for the ubuntu servers
[07:27] <theone> arooni did u install the libdvdcss2?
[07:27] <Ashfire908> nevermind, i found it in gdmsetup
[07:28] <hexstar> ah screw it...

[07:28] <arooni__> theone, yes i did... should i restart or something?
[07:29] <brophat> Intel Core2 Duo processors would use the "64bit AMD and Intel computers" version of ubuntu?
[07:29] <dystopianray> brophat: use 32-bit ubuntu
[07:29] <theone> hm you shouldn't have to restart but could try it to make sure otherwise we can add those codecs u installed to ur ubuntu installation
[07:29] <intelikey> holzmodem select session and choose to make it default   at login time
[07:29] <bullgard4> A large Keksi form text field rduced its height from 406 pixels to the minimum. What property of this Autofield do I have change? (Height is still = 406 pixels).
[07:30] <brophat> ok, the 64 bit version is still unstable?
[07:30] <arooni__> theone, what else can i do?  the french girl will be here in < 10 min! ;p
[07:30] <theone> arooni__ we could try editing the medibuntu package repository
[07:30] <dystopianray> brophat: it's not unstable, but the 32-bit ubuntu is recommended
[07:30] <devanampriyan> anyone have exp with nvidia drivers?????

[07:35] <theone> i saw that devanampriyan what about nvidia is a config prob. or support what are u asking?
[07:35] <xfiles_ken> hihi
[07:35] <xfiles_ken> haha
[07:35] <xfiles_ken> hoho
[07:35] <theone> there are drivers out that work with ubuntu what is your problem you are experiencing?
[07:35] <arooni__> theone, ok i already have them installed apparently

[07:35] <arooni__> theone, i have beryl running too...
[07:35] <ntemis> anyone able to help me out drain the last bit out of this pc?
[07:36] <devanampriyan> it has a lot of issues..... i want to know if its a general bug wit the driver..
[07:36] <devanampriyan> 1) it crashes my linux..completely.. very very often
[07:36] <ntemis> it has onboard voodoo 3
[07:36] <devanampriyan> 2) compiz gets many display glitches....
[07:36] <ntemis> p3 700mhz
[07:36] <theone> okay, arooni__ try restarting then if u still don't have video playing
[07:37] <theone> come back if it still doesn't work but it should
[07:37] <arooni__> ok thanks for all your help theone
[07:37] <ntemis> what windows manager should i use?
[07:37] <theone> dev:  have u updated the drivers?
[07:37] <devanampriyan> yup...
[07:37] <ntemis> default gnome is ok or using other lightweight will do better?
[07:38] <theone> does the crash give you an error?
[07:38] <ntemis> like E or other
[07:38] <devanampriyan> the latest.... from nvidia.... optimised by livna rpm repo
[07:38] <devanampriyan> for kernel 2.6.22.1
[07:38] <devanampriyan> it was installed and auto configured using yum...
[07:38] <devanampriyan> so its likely a defult.. install...
[07:39] <theone> u should try reinstalling using ubuntu's restricted drivers install
[07:39] <jseattle> hello ubuntu
[07:39] <ntemis> hi
[07:39] <devanampriyan> does ubuntu 6.10..provide nvidia driver  in core pacjage??
[07:39] <jseattle> can someone please help me with a sound issue
[07:39] <UnluckyMike> devanampriyan, try install nvidia-glx instead
[07:39] <Aval0n_> is there anyway to solve overscan issues without tv settings?
[07:39] <theone> oh ya 6.10 may not, i'm not sure on that one
[07:40] <theone> get 7.04
[07:40] <Mexandrew> Okay, that was real weird. Messing with the binary drivers was not a really good idea, so I (somehow) found a way to go back to teh open source legacy drivers and rebuilt my xorg.conf file manually, and here I am. Anyway, thanks to all those who helped, my problem is solved now
[07:40] <devanampriyan> nvidia-glx for fc6 or ubuntu???... is it also available for fc6??
[07:40] <jseattle> i just bought a Gateway laptop Model MT3421 new, and installed feisty on it but NO SOUND whatsoever
[07:40] <UnluckyMike> ubuntu
[07:40] <jseattle> does anyone know a fix?
[07:40] <theone> Have a good one Mexandrew
[07:40] <theone> doh
[07:40] <devanampriyan> k.....lemme try........
[07:41] <theone> jseattle  type lspci in terminal
[07:41] <jseattle> i just bought a Gateway laptop Model MT3421 new, and installed feisty on it but NO SOUND whatsoeverok
[07:41] <devanampriyan> but yeah.. this is for all...... FC6 has a repo called livna... it is unofficial..but provides the best drivers and optimised pacjages...
[07:41] <jseattle> ok
[07:41] <devanampriyan> nvidia support is terrible
[07:41] <theone> yep
[07:41] <devanampriyan> lemme see in ubuntu... will b back ;)
[07:41] <theone> sounds good
[07:41] <UnluckyMike> devanampriyan, are you using ubuntu or FC
[07:42] <devanampriyan> i have a 3ple boot
[07:42] <theone> me too :)
[07:42] <devanampriyan> ubuntu 6.10 /fc6 /winxp
[07:42] <kahrytan> rpmfind.net is good repo for FC
[07:42] <theone> jseattle is it detected?
[07:42] <devanampriyan> fc6 is for my rhce study
[07:42] <jseattle> no theone
[07:42] <UnluckyMike> in ubuntu there are nvidia driver in the restricted drivers
[07:42] <jseattle> not at all

[07:44] <devanampriyan> is that k???
[07:44] <Random832> can someone help me with a wireless ethernet problem?
[07:44] <theone> ya
[07:44] <Random832> it's not detecting any networks, even from the livecd, and it worked before
[07:44] <gikid> how can i tell what groups a user is in  from command line?
[07:44] <theone> Random832 do an ifconfig in terminal
[07:45] <Random832> is there a command-line tool to do the "detect networks" part, or is that a feature of the gnome gui
[07:45] <sareth> Does anyone know which version of pam_krb5 ubuntu uses? is it the Sourcefourge version
[07:45] <theone> ifconfig
[07:45] <theone> for wireless or ethernet?
[07:45] <Random832> huh? wireless. why would you need to detect wired networks?
[07:45] <bruenig> iwlist
[07:46] <theone> iwlist
[07:46] <Random832> iwlist what?
[07:46] <theone> no i was asking what u couldn't connect to
[07:46] <bruenig> iwlist interface scan
[07:46] <theone> iwlist athX scanning
[07:46] <bruenig> ethX
[07:46] <Random832> what i can't connect to is wireless - i'm on wired right now
[07:46] <bruenig> wlanX
[07:46] <theone> any of those should work
[07:46] <Random832> "No scan results"
[07:46] <bruenig> therefore nothing out there
[07:46] <Random832> but i KNOW the network is there.
[07:46] <theone> does it detect ur card?
[07:46] <theone> u prob. need drivers
[07:46] <Random832> yes.
[07:46] <Random832> and _it worked before_
[07:47] <theone> when you do iwconfig what is listed?
[07:47] <Random832> theone: ath0      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:""  Nickname:""
[07:47] <CITguy> does anybody know how I can set up Ubuntu to watch encrypted DVDs?
[07:47] <Random832> do you want me to go on pasting?
[07:47] <dexter121> sorry to cut you guys off, i am haveing the same wireless issue
[07:48] <dexter121> please help
[07:48] <theone> im guessing the others are no wireless extensions except for ethX right
[07:48] <theone> do you have wifiX?
[07:48] <Random832> right - ath0 is the only one with wireless
[07:48] <Random832> yes, "wifi0" with 'no wireless extensions.'
[07:48] <Random832> [seems a bit odd, what's going on there?] 
[07:49] <Random832> i have lo eth0 wifi0 ath0, ath0 is the one with wireless stuff on it
[07:49] <theone> no that is fine
[07:49] <CITguy> more specifically I've got libdvdcss installed but none of the applications are recognizing that it's installed
[07:49] <CUBeR64> when you have a version of ubuntu, does it really matter to upgrade everytime or will a version suffice forever?
[07:50] <chrionix> hi all, I'm trying to install support for my fingerprint reader, but I'm told the pam header files are not found. Do I need to install a specific libpam package?
[07:50] <Random832> it won't even work from the livecd now, could something have happened to the hardware from messing with settings [i was experimenting with iwconfig trying to stop it from dropping connection w/ a weak signal] 
[07:50] <Random832> CUBeR64: security updates can be important
[07:51] <ShockSMX> i don't get it. xorg.conf only specifies widescreen resolutions, but in gnome my only choices for resolution are 1024x768, etc, the common 4:3 ones
[07:51] <theone> the livecd is should not have messed up everytime u restart it erases ur settings
[07:51] <ShockSMX> is it not reading xorg.conf?
[07:51] <ShockSMX> why am i not getting the right options?
 so thats the main reason for upgrading correct? applications will always work regardless of kernel?
[07:51] <ShockSMX> i ran through dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[07:51] <Random832> theone: i meant i did something while running from the hd, and now it doesn't work, even from the livecd - not that i did something on the livecd
[07:51] <ShockSMX> didn't get anywhere
[07:51] <theone> try sudo iwconfig ath1 ap any
[07:52] <theone> yes that couldn't mess up your livecd tho
[07:52] <Random832> CUBeR64: generally yes - new features can be another reason [incidentally using <> for people's names can be confusing, it looks like you're pasting something i said] 
[07:52] <Random832> theone: which is why i'm asking if it could have messed up the wireless hardware itself
[07:52] <CUBeR64> Random832: haha sorry >< thanks for the information
[07:53] <theone> no very doubtful, what exactly were u doing?
[07:53] <mboso> is there a way to repair damaged avi files? I have a file I love and seek doesn't work on it anymore because the last few minutes of the avi are missing.
[07:53] <Random832> i tried changing txpower [which has now changed back to what it was]  and sens [which never had any effect]  settings
[07:53] <ShockSMX> mboso: depends on compression type
[07:54] <Random832> after setting ap any, it's scanning through frequencies every half second or so when i repeatedly check iwconfig, but not finding anything
[07:54] <beatbreaker82> anyone out there with a Dell 1720?
[07:54] <mboso> ShockSM: any place you can point me to where i can do some research on it?
[07:54] <beatbreaker82> - installed ubuntu
[07:54] <mboso> not sure were to start
[07:55] <theone> try connecting to a known access point
[07:56] <theone> that doesn't have encryption
[07:56] <CITguy> not to be rude, but has ANYONE been able to watch DVDs on their linux box?
[07:56] <ecaandrew> anyone know how to setup phpmyadmin on fedora core 6
[07:56] <ecaandrew> i installed it with yum
[07:56] <ecaandrew> but cant get it to show up on localhost/phpmyadmin
[07:57] <theone> Random832: also try connecting through ubuntu's gui
[07:59] <trwww> I built pidgin working by hand in a nonstandard location. I have everything working except the icon for the launcher under Applications -> Internet. I see an Icon setting in pidgin.desktop. What do I set this to so the pidgin icon will display?
[07:59] <ntemis> p3 with voodoo 3 on board and ubuntu mame
[08:00] <ntemis> will it be faster than windows?
[08:00] <ntemis> i only want sdlmame and a gui
[08:00] <wongcico> aa
[08:00] <ntemis> do i have to diable anything ? services
[08:00] <Olgem> You should do some benchmarks and report back to us so we can add this to our logs incase the question comes back up again.
[08:00] <wongcico> test
[08:01] <ntemis> will the default gnome be ok
[08:01] <sareth> Does anyone know which version of pam_krb5 ubuntu uses? is it the Sourcefourge version
[08:01] <ntemis> or i need a more lightweight manager?
[08:01] <Olgem> Eeeeehhhh
[08:01] <ntemis> like enlightment
[08:01] <Olgem> Voodoo three huh?
[08:01] <ntemis> yes
[08:01] <Olgem> I thought enlightenment had more effects than gnome
[08:02] <ntemis> is more lightweight
[08:02] <Olgem> I think you might be all right, but its iffy
[08:02] <ntemis> iffy?
[08:02] <Olgem> what driver do you plan on using?
[08:02] <Hansel> Olgem - it does... but not if you run beryl on top of gnome  :)
[08:02] <theone> any installed beryl or 3d desktop cube effect with nvidia drivers?
[08:02] <CITguy> yup
[08:02] <Hansel> theone - yeah, I have nvidia drivers setup with gnome and beryl as well as kde and beryl
[08:02] <CITguy> theone: the trick is making sure that your nvidia drivers are set up correctly
[08:02] <theone> how long did it take to install?
[08:02] <ntemis> enlightment is more heavy than gnome?
[08:02] <genefitz> I just did a ubuntu load on a P3, 64 meg ram, and onboard video. It works, but it is kinda slow. Probably should have used a lighter weight WM.
[08:02] <Hansel> theone - about 2 mins?
[08:03] <genefitz> But for it's uses, for me, it should be fine..
[08:03] <Hansel> ntemis - nah... about the same... but enlightenment is just a window manager, not a desktop environment.
[08:03] <theone> haha i want it, but i don't want to mess things up
[08:03] <Hansel> enlightenment has some nifty special effects though
[08:03] <ntemis> i see
[08:03] <Kouros> <<<< Is anyone aware of how to use ssh to connect to different VNC servers in a remote network?
[08:03] <Olgem> If you run into trouble ntemis I recommend icewm
[08:03] <ntemis> dont need them
[08:03] <ntemis> am looking for it right now!
[08:04] <Hansel> Kouros - you realize SSH and VNC are different protocols, right?
[08:04] <ShockSMX> fuck yeah, figured out this resolution problem
[08:04] <Hansel> Kouros - do you want to tunnel VNC through SSH?
[08:04] <Kouros> yes i do
[08:04] <stdin> !ohmy | ShockSMX
[08:04] <ubotu> ShockSMX: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:04] <theone> hansel u think u could help me out with the install?
[08:04] <ShockSMX> my bad
[08:04] <Hansel> theone - I just apt-get installed them and it worked... ?
[08:04] <theone> ha okay
[08:04] <ntemis> Usable with GNOME and KDE environments
[08:04] <Hansel> theone - if you have some issues I'm sure we can work through them. :)
[08:04] <ntemis> means i need 1 of those to run it?
[08:05] <ntemis> or is standalone
[08:05] <Hansel> ntemis - you can run a window manager without a desktop environment.
[08:05] <Hansel> or you can run a window manager on top of it...
[08:05] <ntemis> http://www.icewm.org/
[08:05] <Hansel> iw; sawfish on top of Gnome.
[08:05] <sauvin> I have a Broadcom 43xx wireless card in my laptop, some Air Force One G or some such baloney; since I have no driver for it, the kernel keeps polluting dmesg with messages about it. How do I shut it up?
[08:05] <ntemis> i want the wm to take as little resources as possible
[08:06] <Hansel> ntemis - blackbox or fluxbox ONLY... that will be pretty light weight.
[08:06] <spanglesontoast> anyone know where I can get the libpython2.4.so.1 from
[08:06] <Kouros> I am trying to do this: ssh -> srv1 <-> vncserver
[08:07] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, sudo apt-get install python2.4
[08:07] <ecaandrew> =[
[08:07] <spanglesontoast> on fiesty mate
[08:07] <Kouros> I have seen plenty of ways to tunnel vnc through ssh but they all show the same system your connecting to I am trying to forward a seperate server on the network through one that has ssh access through the firewall.
[08:08] <Kouros> any help is much welcomed
[08:08] <CITguy> sauvin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[08:08] <sauvin> Will that be valid for feisty, as well?
[08:09] <Aval0n_> guys, I'm going out of my mind. I am running ubuntu. I have a nvidia 7300gs running hdmi out to my samsung PDP. I have the desktop resolution set at 1280x720 and nvidia-settings the same. I tried force scaling in nvidia-settings, but it's still cutting off the top and bottom of the screen. Any suggestions?
[08:09] <CITguy> sauvin: yes, you'll want to start at 1.3.2
[08:09] <Random832> theone: the whole _problem_ is that the gui isn't working, and i can't figure out anything that does work
[08:09] <sareth> Hey, where is an ubuntu channel that has answers?
[08:09] <Random832> and how do you 'connect to a known access point' as opposed to a known essid?
[08:09] <Hansel> lol sareth
[08:10] <sauvin> CIT, i don't want to install the driver or try to get the card running; i want whatever's trying to load it to quit trying.
[08:10] <spanglesontoast> xtknight still haven't got that file
[08:10] <sareth> Hansel, seriously. all the questions asked in here are clearly documented. I just want one undocumented answer.
[08:10] <theone> Random832: you have tried to restart and boot off of cd again?
[08:10] <Hansel> sareth - whats the question?
[08:10] <theone> it should work right away if it did in the past
[08:11] <Random832> i've done all that several times.
[08:11] <sareth> Hansel, Im trying to figure out which pam_krb5 ubuntu uses
[08:11] <CITguy> sauvin: so you want to disable the wireless card?
[08:11] <Random832> it worked in the past, and it doesn't work now
[08:11] <Random832> even from the livecd
[08:11] <sauvin> yes.
[08:11] <sauvin> I'm on a cable modem kind of connexion now and don't want to fool with this card anymore. I tried for a MONTH to get it going. Bad job.
[08:12] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, hmm well i have Feisty and i have the file
[08:12] <ntemis> do i need any special driver for my voodoo 3?
[08:12] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, what are you trying to do that requires libpython?
[08:12] <Hansel> sareth - lemme look and see.  :)  I'm sure there is a README that comes w the package that indicates.
[08:12] <ntemis> or the skock kernel driver will work just fine?
[08:12] <Random832> eh - i need to go, it's two in the morning
[08:12] <ntemis> stock
[08:12] <faileas> ntemis: voodoo 3? that seems... somewhat old...
[08:12] <theone> alright
[08:12] <spanglesontoast> frets on fire the game
[08:12] <ntemis> it is
[08:12] <spanglesontoast> It seems I'm the only one that doesn't have this file
[08:13] <spanglesontoast> cos on fiesty it's 2.5 python not 2.4 :(
[08:13] <ntemis> isnt supported on 2.6 kernel?
[08:13] <faileas> ntemis: don't those pass through anoother card?
[08:13] <ntemis> nope
[08:13] <ntemis> that is voodoo 2
[08:13] <spanglesontoast> xtknight any chance I could have a copy :| ?
[08:14] <Kouros> HENSEL are you familiar with ssh ?
[08:14] <fraser_> can anyone tell me how i can edit my DNS settings?
[08:14] <ntemis> have 2 of those
[08:14] <ntemis> :)
[08:14] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, but, how do you know you don't have this file?  it could be another problem altogether
[08:14] <ntemis> junk
[08:14] <ntemis> i used to use them for n64 emulators
[08:14] <Kouros> fraser are you comfortable with a text editor?
[08:14] <spanglesontoast> I have searched I've compiled python and installed the packges still haven't got that file just wondering why the hell I Haven't :(
[08:15] <sareth> Hansel, thank you. I couldn't find the package on apt-cache to look at it.
[08:15] <spanglesontoast> and if it runs with having that file then hey ace
[08:15] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, i dont get it though.  what are you using that requires python?
[08:15] <spanglesontoast> frets on fire it's a game
[08:15] <Plantain> Where are default nameserver/DNS servers kept?
[08:15] <fraser_> Kouros, yes, i can use gedit sufficiently, have tried using that to edit my /etc/resolv.conf. however, everytime my DHCP renews it's lease, it resets the file. according to google if i use 'network tools' to do it instead of directly editing the file then it won't reset
[08:15] <ntemis> Glide64
[08:15] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, are you trying to compile frets on fire?  you may need python dev libs
[08:16] <spanglesontoast> no it's a binary
[08:16] <ntemis> http://glide64.emuxhaven.net/
[08:16] <spanglesontoast> well .bin
[08:16] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, are you on amd64?
[08:16] <ectospasm> fraser_:  I'm not sure how to use it, but you may want to look into the package resolvconf
[08:16] <spanglesontoast> nope 32bit
[08:16] <Hansel> sareth - are you looking at libpam_krb5?
[08:16] <george_> I'm having a bad time with installing drivers for an Nvidia GE force 4 4600 ti card. is it legacy or not? It seems no matter what I do it crashes, and then I can't undo changes, have to reinstall ubuntu.
[08:16] <fraser_> ectospasm, if i have the file resolv.conf, does this mean i mgiht laready have the packet resolvconf?
[08:16] <faileas> ntemis: i suppose you should try the liveCD and see first
[08:17] <fraser_> ectospasm, or are they unrelated?
[08:17] <ectospasm> fraser_:  no
[08:17] <ProN00b> does samba use /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow for users or does it manage them on its own ?
[08:17] <Kouros> Fraser_ are you trying to setup a DNS server?
[08:17] <george_> any idea of the right driver to install?  Also if I mess up, and it won't load xorg, how do I undo changes?
[08:17] <sareth> Hansel, I was just looking for it. though I haven't been to sleep in almost two days so I could be messing up.
[08:17] <faileas> ntemis,  its a practically over a decade old. i kinda am unsure if the rest of yout system can manage
[08:17] <ectospasm> fraser_:  they're related, but resolv.conf is part of the networking subsystem
[08:17] <fraser_> Kouros, no, i'm just trying to change my default DNS server
[08:17] <nitesh> HEY ALL MOTHER FUCKING UBUNTU USERS. SEND YOUR MOTHERS TO ME. I WILL FUCK THEM FOR FREE. FREE AS IN FREE MOTHER PUSSY
[08:17] <spanglesontoast> xtknight I know it's looking for this file becuse I soft linked it to my 2.5 one and named it the same of course it died
[08:17] <fraser_> ectospasm, okay tnhakyou
[08:17] <ectospasm> fraser_:  resolvconf will change stuff on the fly
[08:17] <Kouros> ProN00b : samba uses its own database for passwords and users
[08:18] <fraser_> nitesh, i don't like you very much
[08:18] <CITguy> ditto
[08:18] <Talaman72> lol
[08:18] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, i dont knwo what to tell you.  it works here
[08:18] <faileas> !op > nitesh
[08:18] <astro76> !ops | nitesh

[08:18] <faileas> gah
[08:18] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, ./FretsOnFire
[08:18] <Plantain> Where are default nameservers kept under Ubuntu?
[08:18] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, try "sudo ldconfig" to reload some libraries?
[08:18] <spanglesontoast> yea if I do it that way I get stuck with a horrible resolution
[08:18] <ectospasm> fraser_:  I haven't figured out how to use it yet for myself, so don't ask me for questions
[08:18] <Kouros> Pro.. no problem
[08:18] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, how do you reproduce the "needing python" problem
[08:19] <fraser_> ectospasm, no problem
[08:19] <Hansel> sareth - MD5 efc37d1a8dd6d37bf1b29d22c2878b54 - comparing with the sourceforge one now.
[08:19] <Hansel> although I imagine its a customized version of it.
[08:19] <spanglesontoast> xtknight ./FretsOnFire.bin
[08:19] <sareth> hansel, ah I found it. it looks like its heimdal
[08:19] <Kouros> pro... look at smbadduser i think is the command
[08:19] <spanglesontoast> whoa different error
[08:19] <Kouros> unless you are using LDAP.
[08:19] <spanglesontoast> :D
[08:19] <fraser_> is anyone familiar with resolvconf?
[08:19] <xtknight> i guess an X crash will do too
[08:19] <xtknight> lol.
[08:20] <xtknight> spanglesontoast, this is ./FretsOnFire.bin that crashes X :)
[08:20] <sareth> hansel, thanks for the help, I think I'm just loosing it.
[08:20] <spanglesontoast> libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared ob
[08:20] <Hansel> :)
[08:20] <Kouros> fraser_ are you using dial up?
[08:20] <spanglesontoast> I'm guessing I'm missing sdl :)
[08:20] <spanglesontoast> yea but it tells you the output
[08:20] <xtknight> hmm
[08:20] <spanglesontoast> lol
[08:20] <ProN00b> is there any tool in gnome to configure samba ?
[08:20] <Kouros> fraser_ and why are you trying to change your DNS servers from other then your ISPs?
[08:20] <fraser_> Kouros, adsl
[08:22] <fraser_> Kouros, i'm not. there's a problem with my router and for some reason it won't allow linux computers to use the DNS service properly. i don't fully understand, but i asked my ISP for the IP address of it's DNS servers, and i have them. and i am trying to set up my resolv.conf so instead of asking the router for the IP of my DNS it'll go there automatically
[08:23] <jellymaster> hmmmm I was going through a guide and I needed to add a file in the wireless directory but it says I'm not the owner so I can not change/add things to that folder,why is this?

[08:26] <Aval0n_> guys, I'm going out of my mind. I am running ubuntu. I have a nvidia 7300gs running hdmi out to my samsung PDP. I have the desktop resolution set at 1280x720 and nvidia-settings the same. I tried force scaling in nvidia-settings, but it's still cutting off the top and bottom of the screen. Any suggestions?

[08:34] <faileas> !es | fredo
[08:34] <like_soldier> ubres
[08:34] <nikolam> Why Ubuntu is giving root access to anyone who sits at computer , if something is wrong, by default??
[08:34] <wolferine> nikolam, did you give your user a group with system access?
[08:34] <Hansel> nikolam - it shouldn't be giving root access to them except through sudo /etc/sudoers visudo
[08:34] <spanglesontoast> brb
[08:34] <wolferine> thanks elkbuntu
[08:35] <morph581> hello all
[08:35] <nikolam> Yes: it does: Try to shange uuid in /etc/fstab to wrong one and VOILA: on next boot users get ROOT prompt!
[08:35] <morph581> anyone know of a program to backup ubuntu to a dvd?
[08:36] <faileas> morph581: mondorescue
[08:36] <gikid> whats a good terminal irc client?
[08:36] <r0bby> gikid: irssi.
[08:36] <T-Connect> Is there #ubuntu-game?
[08:36] <wolferine> giany911, irssi
[08:36] <gikid> ok
[08:36] <wolferine> T-Connect, #ubuntu-trivia
[08:36] <nikolam> Hansel: yes it does. Every time.
[08:36] <xmkkkk> xchat
[08:36] <r0bby> xchat isn't console.
[08:36] <Hansel> gikid - bitchx
[08:36] <r0bby> it's GUI.
[08:36] <T-Connect> I meant for gamers help.
[08:36] <xmkkkk> :(
[08:36] <r0bby> bitchx *puke*
[08:36] <timewriter> gikid , irssi
[08:36] <wolferine> T-Connect, #winehq
[08:36] <timewriter> or bitchx ofc
[08:37] <T-Connect> I don't use wine.
[08:37] <Kouros> fraser_ are you responding I have tried to PM you but no responce
[08:37] <r0bby> irssi is best in my opinion.
[08:37] <wolferine> T-Connect, then your answer is no
[08:37] <timewriter> i use xchat
[08:37] <fraser_> kouros, it is not appearing. sorry. we'll have to try in here.
[08:37] <timewriter> i dont want my eyes to die early
[08:37] <T-Connect> I don't know how to setup wine.
[08:37] <timewriter> apt-get install wine ?
[08:37] <Kouros> Timewriter did you get your problem fixed from earlier?
[08:38] <T-Connect> So I'm stick with Linux
[08:38] <r0bby> timewriter: yes, but he asked _CONSOLE_.
[08:38] <gikid> oh man
[08:38] <timewriter> Kouros no
[08:38] <gikid> i dont want to install x
[08:38] <timewriter> r0bby i know
[08:38] <Kouros> with the cpu
[08:38] <timewriter> i was just making a completion
[08:38] <Kouros> okay sorry i had to leave.
[08:38] <Hansel> T-Connect just apt-get install it then wine /home/user/.wine/drive_c/whatever.exe
[08:38] <kkathman> could someone explain what the bonobo-activation-server is that runs on ubuntu?
[08:38] <T-Connect> I know how to install wine.
[08:38] <wolferine> gikid, use the server edition then
[08:38] <fraser_> Kouros, so all i think i need to do is learn how to use resolvconf to make resolv.conf stay as it is
[08:38] <timewriter> Kouros ,i want to remove powersaved
[08:38] <gikid> wolferine: i know.... but i want an irc client
[08:38] <T-Connect> Don't know how to setup my settings.
[08:38] <r0bby> gikid: irssi is best; if you do "screen irssi" you can detach and resume and keep it running 24/7
[08:38] <timewriter> and he wants to remove ubuntu-desktop also
[08:38] <wolferine> gikid, irssi, as may have told
[08:38] <Kouros> I use the built in one for gnome but to make the cpu changes you have to run the following in the terminal .. .hold i will get you the line
[08:39] <timewriter> ok
[08:39] <gikid> irssi requires x11-common i thought
[08:39] <T-Connect> That is why I don't use wine.
[08:39] <r0bby> gikid: no it doesn't, it's console.
[08:39] <timewriter> anyone of you tried the nimbus-theme for gnome ?
[08:39] <Hansel> sudo apt-get install bitchx            bitchx irc.freenode.net yournick
[08:39] <gikid> exactly..
[08:39] <Kouros> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets
[08:39] <Kouros> you want to set the cpu monitor to use the setuid bit
[08:40] <kkathman> -Hansel-  thanks
[08:40] <Kouros> then you can manually set your cpu seed
[08:40] <r0bby> gikid: irssi is an ncurses irc client.
[08:40] <Hansel> np kkathman
[08:40] <timewriter> ok i did that
[08:40] <Kouros> works like a charm.
[08:40] <T-Connect> Wine is like XP. Reg hoggers.
[08:40] <timewriter> thanks mate
[08:40] <timewriter> it worked
[08:40] <timewriter> i can choose 3.4 or 2.4
[08:41] <Kouros> your welcome :)
[08:41] <timewriter> from the cpu scale monitor
[08:41] <gikid> well, i aborted (ctrl+c) in the middle of "apt-get install bitchx" and now apt-get is being gay
[08:41] <timewriter> it wasnt installed as root
[08:41] <Kouros> you can also set it to run in performance mode
[08:41] <Kouros> no it not
[08:41] <faileas> gikid: does it give a essage to run a dpkg (something something command?)
[08:41] <gikid> well, i aborted (ctrl+c) in the middle of "apt-get install bitchx" and now apt-get is being gay
[08:41] <chrionix> anyone running Entrance and thinkfinger?
[08:41] <gikid> faileas: yes and i did it
[08:41] <timewriter> how do i set that up ?
[08:41] <Kouros> changing hardware settings is a reserved right for the administrator so a normal user should not normaly have that power
[08:41] <r0bby> do apt-get -f install
[08:42] <faileas> gikid: and that should fix it
[08:42] <faileas> in a few hours
[08:42] <gikid> it wants me to install x11-common
[08:42] <r0bby> gikid: what?
[08:42] <gikid> and i dont want that
[08:42] <Kouros> you have the Gnome CPU Frequency monitor loded in your systray right?
[08:43] <gikid> r0bby: i did what you told me, and it wants me to install x11-common
[08:43] <timewriter> * mzuverink (n=mzuverin@adsl-75-40-247-98.dsl.klmzmi.sbcglobal.net) has joined #ubuntu
[08:43] <r0bby> for irssi?
[08:43] <timewriter> oops
[08:43] <Kouros> you have the Gnome CPU Frequency monitor loded in your systray right?
[08:43] <gikid> i guess
[08:43] <timewriter> wrong paste
[08:43] <timewriter> yes Kouros
[08:43] <Kouros> okay did you run the reconfigure command i gave you?
[08:43] <timewriter> yes
[08:43] <Kouros> can you change the cpu speed now?
[08:43] <timewriter> yes
[08:43] <Kouros> then you are done
[08:43] <timewriter> thanks
[08:43] <Kouros> it will work for now one with you
[08:43] <timewriter> tell me how do i get rid of this
[08:44] <T-Connect> Bye.
[08:44] <Kouros> get rid of what?
[08:44] <timewriter> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[08:44] <timewriter>   ubuntu-desktop libcpufreq0 powersaved libpowersave10
[08:44] <r0bby> sudo apt-get autoremove
[08:44] <timewriter> when i do sudo apt-get remove powersaved
[08:44] <morph581> its amazing how nice ubuntu is
[08:44] <Kouros> umm.. what did you install or try to remove.
[08:44] <r0bby> fail :/
[08:44] <Kouros> ahh reinstall powersaved
[08:44] <timewriter> sudo apt-get remove powersaved
[08:44] <Hansel> gikid - I'm telling you... bitchx... irssi is meh.
[08:45] <r0bby> timewriter: it tells you how to remove it.
[08:45] <Kouros> then run this line
[08:45] <gikid> Hansel: bitchx wants x11-common
[08:45] <gikid> i dont want it
[08:45] <timewriter> its nothing at autoremove
[08:45] <Kouros> sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:45] <timewriter> Reading state information... Done
[08:45] <timewriter> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[08:45] <Hansel> hrrmmm... there is a CLI-only ver... lemme look
[08:45] <jellymaster> whoever was telling me to do sudo to fix this owner thing I was looking around but I couldn't find anything how do I do that
[08:45] <fraser_> Kouros, okay, i have configured resolvconf i think. but i would like to know something.
[08:46] <gikid> r0bby: that didnt work
[08:46] <timewriter> i cant remove powersaved , without removing the desktop
[08:46] <Kouros> if when you reboot you have no desktop you have to run sudo apt-get install -y ubuntu-desktop
[08:46] <Kouros> that will fix any broking things
[08:46] <timewriter> haha
[08:46] <timewriter> ok
[08:46] <timewriter> brb then :)
[08:46] <Kouros> right so leave it there
[08:46] <wolferine> jellymaster, did you do this 'situation' yourself?
[08:46] <Kouros> fraser what is it that you want to know
[08:46] <intr80> What's the proper way to give a user access to a serial line?
[08:47] <Kouros> and can you paste a copy of your resolv.conf
[08:47] <timewriter> lol
[08:47] <timewriter> it didnt removed the desktop
[08:47] <Kouros> good to go :)
[08:47] <Hansel> intr80 - you want to give a user direct access to a device in /dev?
[08:47] <fraser_> kouros, i have tested that when it runs it does reset my resolv.conf to the correct file, but when i edited resolv.conf by hand, i waited a few seconds then checked the file again, and it had remained the way i had edited it by hand. i was under the impression that resolvconf would fix the file everytime it got changed. or does it work on an interval?
[08:47] <Kouros> i made that mistake.. took me the better part of 2 hours to figuare out how to get it to let me change the cpu speed
[08:47] <timewriter> whats the difference between powernowd and powersaved >?
[08:48] <jellymaster> idk I installed ubuntu and now I'm trying to figure out how to set up my wireless card have been trying to follow guides but once i get to a point I cant go any further because i'm not owner it says but i'm the only user on ubuntu except for root tried to log into root but ubuntu yelled @ me telling me I couldn't
[08:48] <intr80> Hansel: I'd like to give the user access to all serial devices created now and in the future
[08:48] <Kouros> and i broke the desktop in teh process same thing you were playing with
[08:48] <timewriter> lol
[08:48] <gikid> r0bby: it's pretty much saying I have to install x11-common no matter what I do
[08:48] <faileas> jellymaster: you used su?
[08:48] <timewriter> omg
[08:48] <Hansel> jellymaster - sudo...
[08:48] <fr500> hmmmm
[08:48] <timewriter> Removing ubuntu-desktop ...
[08:48] <timewriter> brb
[08:48] <Kouros> fraser_
[08:48] <jellymaster> how do I access sudo?
[08:48] <faileas> sudo command
[08:48] <intr80> usermod -G dialout username doesnt do the trick
[08:48] <Kouros> resolve config is read in to memory when the network starts up
[08:48] <r0bby> !sudo | jellymaster
[08:48] <sauvin> I just survived an attempt to boot Windows XP. Worst half hour of my recent life.
[08:48] <ubotu> jellymaster: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:48] <faileas> password: password of first user
[08:49] <Hansel> jellymaster - just type it before a command... ie;         sudo adduser blah
[08:49] <Kouros> after making changes you should restart your network like so
[08:49] <faileas> sauvin: not much wrong with XP maintained right ;p
[08:49] <Kouros> sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[08:49] <Phlosten> anyone have issues using Adobe Reader in Feisty? I just installed it but when I try to run it, it just runs at 100% cpu and doesnt get anywhere
[08:49] <Kouros> that will cause it to stop and reload your network settings
[08:49] <sauvin> faileas, I'll admit I don't maintain it. Even when it was FRESH, it took calendar time to boot.
[08:50] <Kouros> on ubunto though you can also try editing the file interfaces..
[08:50] <Hansel> jellymaster - sudo iwconfig eth1 essid APNAMEHERE  (this will direct it to the access point of your choosing)  You can then             sudo dhclient eth1
[08:50] <fraser_> Kouros, sudo: /etc/init.d/network: command not found
[08:50] <Sretsnom> hey
[08:50] <faileas> sauvin: too many things starting on start, and terrible fragmentation (stock windows defrag is shit) probably
[08:50] <Kouros> gksudo gedit /etc/network/interface
[08:50] <spanglesontoast> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'GMatrix33' anyone know what that means ?
[08:50] <Sretsnom> So, can anyone tell me if i need to do soemthing special with installing ubutntu on a laptop?
[08:50] <sauvin> Probably. I don't care. I'm really REALLY thinking about jetisoning it.
[08:51] <theone> hansel how much longer are u going to be on?
[08:51] <Kouros> hold
[08:51] <Hansel> Sretsnom - which laptop?  Make sure its hardware is compatible  :P
[08:51] <susan> tht
[08:51] <faileas> Sretsnom: not really, check up the HCL first, IMO
[08:51] <Hansel> theone - dunno... minutes, hours, days?
[08:51] <Sretsnom> Hansel, it's an HP ze2000.
[08:51] <ProN00b> omg, why does this server crap have to be so fckin hard to setup, can anyone show me an example samba config that adds one user with a password that has access to one dir and nothing else ?
[08:51] <susan> xfgff
[08:51] <Sretsnom> HCL?
[08:51] <susan> kl
[08:51] <susan> l
[08:51] <susan> l
[08:51] <Sretsnom> Where's this HCL?
[08:51] <susan> kll
[08:51] <timewriter> well
[08:51] <timewriter> GOD is allmighty
[08:51] <timewriter> i have the desktop
[08:51] <Kouros> gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[08:51] <timewriter> hey guys u tried nerolinux 3 ?
[08:51] <fraser_> ProN00b, i feel your pain.
[08:52] <Sretsnom> hmm damn
[08:52] <Sretsnom> the HCL is down
[08:52] <Kouros> Pro.. are you using ubuntu with the gnome desktop?
[08:52] <Phlosten> ProN00b, have you ran 'smbpasswd' yet to add a samba user?
[08:52] <timewriter> one of the best gnome theme , is this nimbus-theme
[08:53] <Kouros> fraser_ have you looked at the file?
[08:53] <Kouros> auto eth1
[08:53] <Kouros> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[08:53] <ProN00b> Phlosten, i think muliple times; any idea how to remove the users again
[08:53] <Kouros> you should have something like that in it
[08:54] <Kouros> smbuserdel
[08:54] <ProN00b> i mean wtf, why is ther a smbpasswd that can just add users, but not remove or list them
[08:54] <Kouros> smbpasswd sets the password
[08:54] <Hansel> ProN00b - google you must.
[08:54] <Phlosten> ProN00b, smbpasswd -x username
[08:54] <fraser_> Kouros, after resetting the network, the file has reset also, resolvconf is not running frequently enough. is there a way i can tell the computer to run it ever 5 minutes?
[08:54] <Kouros> use smbuserdel <username> to remove it
[08:55] <ProN00b> Phlosten, and how do i list it ?
[08:55] <Phlosten> ProN00b, 'man smbpasswd'
[08:55] <ProN00b> Kouros, that command does not exist
[08:55] <r0bby> !samba | ProN00b
[08:55] <ubotu> ProN00b: 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
[08:55] <Hansel> 99% of the answers I give in here are from me googling on peoples behalf...
[08:55] <r0bby> Go have a ball.
[08:55] <Phlosten> Hansel, i feel your pain ;)
[08:55] <Kouros> paste the command you typed
[08:55] <r0bby> Hansel: welcome to the wonderful world of "I'm too lazy to RTFM"

[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:56] <oranye> w
[08:56] <sauvin> I did a chown to change the ownership of a set of files, and it did that, but only the owner. how do I change the group of a set of files?
[08:56] <r0bby> ProN00b: I gave you a resource, be greatful.
[08:56] <oranye> what?
[08:56] <Hansel> r0bby - serious... it's a tad ridiculous.  The 1% of the answers are legitimate questions where somebody has a funky situation which I have dealt with in my past usually
[08:56] <wers> Anyone here successfully used the Aurora themes?
[08:56] <fraser_> does anyone know if there is a way make a certain program run at a set interval, say every five minutes?
[08:56] <Kouros> hansel if you can find a working soulution to ssh tunneling of vnc to multiple computers in side a network i would love to see it. been looking for hours nothing yet.
[08:56] <ProN00b> r0bby, stuff it says isn't even true
[08:56] <r0bby> ProN00b: you seriously need to rethink what you just did, i told you how to get your answers on your own/.
[08:57] <ProN00b> swat simply doesn't work on ubuntu
[08:57] <Hansel> ProN00b - I /notice'd you http://www.samba.netfirms.com/addusers.htm ... go up a directoy on that site and all your answers are available.  We help those that HELP THEMSELVES
[08:57] <wers> I successfully installed the aurora engine.. I dragged and dropped the theme folders to the the theme preferences window.. only the colors of the widget theme changed
[08:57] <bulmer> fraser_: cron
[08:57] <Kouros> normally cron is used for that fraser but your not trying to run a program with resolv.conf it gets read when the network starts .
[08:57] <wers> the aura themes did not come at all
[08:57] <sauvin> Grrr. The answer to my question is chgrp. I should really learn to scout about a few seconds before asking stupid questions.
[08:57] <r0bby> ProN00b: regardless, 99% of the time, answers can be found by googling.
[08:57] <Kouros> fraser_ have you though about putting a working router in place ?
[08:58] <ProN00b> r0bby, yeah, thats why this channel has 997 users
[08:58] <Kouros> Pro swat does work
[08:58] <ProN00b> Kouros, how ?
[08:58] <Kouros> sudo apt-get install swat xinetd
[08:58] <r0bby> samba has a VAST i mean VAST amount of documentation on their site; http://ubuntuguide.org is an _AWESOME_ place.
[08:58] <ProN00b> didn't work for me
[08:58] <Kouros> then you have to add a xinet file for swat to run
[08:58] <ProN00b> did that to
[08:59] <ProN00b> *too
[08:59] <Kouros> google ubuntu swat xinetd
[08:59] <Hansel> Kouros - http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/user/view/cs_msg/24540 <--- you can customize that up to your liking. :)
[08:59] <ProN00b> Kouros, i friggin did that, it doesn't work
[08:59] <r0bby> ProN00b: regardless -- and this channel has 997 users...i'm not even touching that one with a 10 foot pole
[08:59] <fraser_> Kouros, it works fine for windows, i am lazy and poor. also i'm not %100 it's the router's fault.
[08:59] <Kouros> you will see a working file
[09:00] <Kouros> Pro.. paste your swat xinetd file for me.
[09:00] <Hansel> NOT IN THE CHANNEL THOUGH  :)

[09:00] <Sretsnom2> anyone have experience with hp pavillion?
[09:00] <Drk_Guy> How can i set-up internet trough UsB'
[09:00] <chowmeined> why do my mime types keep getting messed up? i look in /usr/share/mime and all the permissions on the files are set 600
[09:00] <Hansel> Sretsnom2 - sure... do you have a SPECIFIC question?
[09:01] <chowmeined> i set it back to 644 but it keeps happening
[09:01] <Sretsnom2> Well, just compatilibility.
[09:01] <Hansel> Drk_Guy - wireless or USB to cable modem?
[09:01] <Drk_Guy> Usb to modem, Hansel
[09:01] <Hansel> Drk_Guy - can't help ya there.. :(
[09:01] <faileas> sretsnom2: best place to check is tuxmobile
[09:01] <Drk_Guy> D'oh
[09:01] <Hansel> Drk_Guy - I recommend you grab ethernet (it's better (tm) anyhow)
[09:01] <Drk_Guy> Anyway, thx
[09:01] <Sretsnom2> thanks hansel
[09:01] <Kouros> fraser_ do you have an old computer laying around.?
[09:02] <Drk_Guy> Hansel: I eed Usb
[09:02] <Drk_Guy> *need
[09:02] <fraser_> Kouros, nope. but i can get one if i need to. why?
[09:02] <Hansel> Drk_Guy - Drk_Guy - http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/Motorola-Surfboard-Modem.html
[09:02] <Kouros> monowall
[09:02] <Sretsnom2> haha, its not listed
[09:02] <Kouros> pfsense < i use this one
[09:02] <Hansel> Drk_Guy - yours may be different model but the info for the USB should help...
[09:02] <ProN00b> Kouros, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34282/
[09:02] <Drk_Guy> I'll try that, thanks
[09:03] <Kouros> small firewall can run off a usb stick
[09:03] <r0bby> ...
[09:03] <Kouros> also look at IP COP
[09:03] <Sent1nel4> .like
[09:03] <Kouros> i like the pfSense cuase it does packet shapping and has a captive protal built in
[09:04] <Hansel> Stretsnom2 - what is the exact model number?  Your best bet is to pop open the HP Pavillion and look at the motherboard and video card model #'s... look them up.  Chances are they are supported if its not too cutting edge new  :)
[09:04] <Sretsnom2> ze2000
[09:04] <Sretsnom2> i searched on the forums
[09:04] <Sretsnom2> but i just wanted a little more clarity
[09:04] <Sretsnom2> it said it was "mildly supported"
[09:04] <Kouros> Hensel thanks. ,, unfortinaly my situation is a little more tiricky.. i am trying to go through an open ssh port to connect to system inside and tunnel them through that open port does not seem to be working .. will keep at it though.
[09:05] <Kouros> Pro . that config is correct
[09:05] <Kouros> have you restart samba?
[09:05] <ProN00b> samba ?
[09:05] <chrionix> anyone here using entrance + thinkfinger?
[09:05] <ProN00b> why samba
[09:05] <Hansel> Stretsnom - looks like everything will work except the memory card reader and wireless will give you troubles (they are configurable but it will be a struggle most likely)
[09:06] <Kouros> because swat is actually sponed from samba
[09:06] <Kouros> its internal
[09:06] <scriptha> I have installed apache, and after that libapache2-mod-php5, but the when I try to view a php file, it wants me to download a phtml file.. How do I install the mod manually?
[09:06] <Hansel> Kouros - ah, once you get in you need to create a tunnel back out... why not just setup port forwarding at the router?
[09:06] <ProN00b> should be spawned from xinetd shouldn't it ?
[09:06] <Kouros> issue a restart of samba... smb and nmb
[09:06] <base_slash> hello people
[09:07] <Kouros> hansel router is controled by telco and only allows port 22 open
[09:07] <Hansel> scriptha - chances are you just need to edit your httpd.conf so it will recognize .php files
[09:07] <zhangsen> is it possible to let the terminal emulator to send C-; when using emacs in the terminal emulator?
[09:07] <scriptha> Hansel, there's the mod_placerholder thing..
[09:07] <Hansel> Kouros - so basically once you get into ComputerA you want it to act as a router, if you will, to VNC to Computer B-C
[09:07] <zhangsen> That's a big problem when using emacs on the remote server.
[09:08] <Hansel> scriptha - yeah, uncomment, save, restart httpd
[09:08] <Kouros> exactly
[09:09] <Hansel> Kouros - since you only have port 22 to work with you wont be able to easily switch between them... you'll have to script to get to ComputerB, bring it down, script to bring up C, etc.
[09:09] <Kouros> I have seen some things on doing it with putty under windows .. but well I am guilty i WANT to do it from linux.
[09:10] <Kouros> i have been sshing to compterA then sshing to b and c as needed
[09:10] <wolferine> im trying to install cfengine, which requires BerkelyDB, anyone know of a similar project to cfengine, as the install isnt going too well ?
[09:10] <faileas> Kouros: putty is wonderful ;)
[09:10] <Kouros> but i now have a need of a GUI .. as VMware is running on B and C and i need access to them.
[09:10] <Kouros> faileas yes it is i used it all the time in windows
[09:11] <Kouros> but i am trying to stay on linux
[09:11] <Kouros> and i wnat to script some things.
[09:11] <wolferine> Kouros, edit ssh configs, and do vncviewer localhost on the box your sshed into
[09:11] <faileas> hmm
[09:11] <faileas> wait..
[09:11] <faileas> whats the issue again?
[09:11] <Kouros> i know putty is on linux now to .. but .. well i would like to do it from the terminal if i can.
[09:12] <Kouros> the box i am sshing in to is an appliance with no vnc on it
[09:12] <Kouros> and i can not install on it.
[09:12] <Kouros> its a telco box
[09:12] <faileas> fun
[09:13] <Kouros> not really
[09:13] <faileas> hmm command line...
[09:13] <Kouros> trying
[09:13] <faileas> wouldn't the openssh client count?
[09:13] <Kouros> yep\
[09:13] <faileas> oh, and VNC is overrated
[09:13] <ProN00b> wow, samba is crappy
[09:13] <Kouros> did you get swat up?
[09:14] <faileas> yeah, there's a reason i switched local file shating to http ;p
[09:14] <Hansel> Kouros - try the answer at the bottom of http://realvnc.com/pipermail/vnc-list/2002-November/035772.html
[09:14] <Kouros> looking now
[09:15] <scriptha> hansel, uncommenting didnt work
[09:15] <Kouros> same problem there hansel.. need vncviewer on the box your sshing into.
[09:15] <mojojojo_> hi... Is there a keyboard shortcut to create new file in gnome?
[09:16] <Kouros> pro did you get swat up?
[09:16] <Charles_Xavier> This is a question regarding wireless networking in ubuntu feisty 7.04. - I cannot get wireless networking to work on my computer. The DLINK Wireless card (Chipset: Marvell W8300) is installed and ready to use, but I cannot install the proper drivers and do not know how to install drivers. If anyone can help me, that would be great.
[09:16] <Hansel> scriptha - try #php
[09:17] <Hansel> Charles_Xavier - I had the same problem with my DLINK wireless card... I popped in my Aironet CISCO card and worked in an instant... :(  Probably not the answer you want... I just gave up on it 'cause it sucked so bad.
[09:17] <Charles_Xavier> Is there any method to install this card?
[09:17] <scott__> which card is it?
[09:17] <wers> how do I prevent ubuntu from locking my screen whenever I close my laptop's lid
[09:17] <Charles_Xavier> DLINK Marvell W8300 Adapter for 802.11
[09:17] <Hansel> Charles_Xavier - I figure you probably need the ndiswrapper and all sorts of tweaking... I messed with it for 2 days and gave up.
[09:18] <scott__> hmmmm...just got my verizon kyocera broadband card going..much faster than windows
[09:19] <Kouros> Charles_Xavier: have you tried using ndiswrapper?
[09:19] <Charles_Xavier> yes
[09:19] <Charles_Xavier> the gtk
[09:19] <Charles_Xavier> IT shows up the card in network, but my signal is 0%
[09:19] <Charles_Xavier> for my wireless access point
[09:19] <jellymaster> is anyone here familiar with ndiswrapper? I'm trying to use it to get my wireless working I'm following the install guide and it says to use the command ndiswrapper -i  driver.ini but when I use it it says to use the command sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common but it says it can not find package ndiswrapper-common
[09:19] <sauvin> Fellas, thank you very much for showing me how to get the kernel to shut up about not having any drivers for the Broadcom wireles.
[09:20] <Kouros> usb card?
[09:20] <Charles_Xavier> no
[09:20] <Charles_Xavier> internal
[09:20] <Kouros> did you use xp driver or the 98?
[09:20] <Charles_Xavier> xp
[09:20] <Kouros> (sorry dlink sucks)
[09:21] <Kouros> try an older driver
[09:21] <Kouros> sometimes that works
[09:21] <Kouros> I had a 520+.. gave up on it
[09:21] <Kouros> bought a netgear with the atheros chip.
[09:21] <Kouros> never looked back.
[09:21] <Charles_Xavier> this channel is useless, no help at all. Ubuntu is useless if you can't get help. I'm switching back to windows
[09:21] <jellymaster> is there a better way to get this USB card to work then Ndiswrapper? or am I dong something wrong
[09:21] <b0xii> my g650 works out of the box
[09:21] <Charles_Xavier> bye all
[09:21] <Kouros> even do web key hacking with it now all the time.
[09:22] <george_> Hey if you're on ubuntu you can use all the KDE apps too right?
[09:22] <wolferine> george_, yes
[09:22] <b0xii> george_, if you install em
[09:22] <Kouros> for the most part george sa
[09:22] <george_> hurray
[09:22] <sauvin> George, I'm running Ubuntu using KDE.
[09:22] <Kouros> it will most likly install a lot of kde destop parts too
[09:22] <b0xii> like 83299483 of them
[09:23] <b0xii> xubuntu? fluxbuntu?
[09:23] <sauvin> b0xii, you're being facetious, I hope. The true number exceeds 6.47 metric gazillions.
[09:23] <b0xii> sauvin, lol
[09:23] <bullgard4> A large Keksi form text field rduced its height over night from 406 pixels to the minimum. What property of this Autofield do I have to change? (The 'Height' property is still = 406 pixels).
[09:24] <sauvin> I'm just running regular ubuntu, installed off a livecd. It COMES with KDE, you just have to know to click in a certain spot on the graphical login screen.
[09:25] <co_17_mlg> malang
[09:26] <timewriter> thats Kubuntu
[09:28] <xking> ?
[09:29] <sauvin> I swear I did NOT install kubuntu.
[09:29] <jellymaster> so anyone know what I should do? on ndiswrapper I used: sudo make uninstall, sudo make,sudo make install as it said then I tried to load the driver using ndiswrapper -i driver.inf and it said to use sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common so I did but it brought up an error: E: couldn't find package ndiswrapper-common
[09:30] <Kouros> well guys you have a good night.
[09:30] <DFM> If you are running KDE then you either installed Kubuntu originally or you added it through the package manager
[09:30] <timewriter> !mp3

[09:30] <sauvin> I may have added it through a package manager, but I have no memory of having done so.
[09:30] <kahrytan> What was wrong with Charles_Xavier?
[09:31] <sauvin> It wasn't a livecd, actually, but a livedvd. Does that make a difference?
[09:32] <mythomanic> anyone know much about encrypting swap with loop-aes?
[09:32] <DFM> sauvin: Not really. I have dvd's of both.
[09:32] <sauvin> In that case, I may not know what I'm talking about, and you should ignore me.
[09:32] <kahrytan> !encrypt
[09:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about encrypt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:32] <mythomanic> my question is since i have enabled loop-aes on my swap partition neither top nor system manager (gnome) shows that swap is being used, though it shows that it is active - what gives?
[09:33] <DFM> sauvin: No I won't ignore you, I was just trying to point something out. Not making you look bad.
[09:34] <sauvin> Oh, I don't care if I look bad. I look worse if I send somebody to a dead end.
[09:34] <kahrytan> mythomanic, Look up file system encryption
[09:34] <DFM> Either way the core is the same just the desktops have been changed to protect the innocent...........................

[09:43] <alesan> what is a good program, maybe similar to htop but graphical?
[09:43] <DARKGuy> Hi, anybody has time for helping me set up ad-hoc networking with my WinXP laptop?
[09:43] <ehc> is there a log of system beeps? or of motherboard beeps?
[09:44] <wolferine> ehc where is the beep coming from, your case? or from your speakers?
[09:44] <DARKGuy> I'm tired of googling and following howtos and reading the ubuntu community docs with no luck :(
[09:44] <sareth> DARKGuy, yeah, the people in the windows channels
[09:44] <theone> DARKGuy: setup adhoc connection via iwconfig
[09:44] <ehc> wolferine, case but my term and xchat also use the speaker inside my case.
[09:44] <DARKGuy> sareth: er, my main PC is Ubuntu, I know how to configure it in XP but not here
[09:44] <Bobby_> ok i opened up the terminal window and pasted what you typed and thisa is what i got:
[09:44] <Bobby_> bobby@BOBBYS-LINUX-SERVER:~$ sudo /sbin/netconfig
[09:44] <Bobby_> Password:
[09:44] <Bobby_> sudo: /sbin/netconfig: command not found
[09:44] <Bobby_> bobby@BOBBYS-LINUX-SERVER:~$
[09:45] <Bobby_> did i do something wrong
[09:45] <wolferine> ehc, you really need to check with your m/b's site for system beeps
[09:45] <sareth> Bobby_, type in your user password
[09:45] <DARKGuy> theone: yeah tried that multiple times, most I can get is a connection where the XP comp gets no IP address whatsoever, I'm trying to share my internet, using firestarter for that
[09:45] <wolferine> Bobby, yes, dont paste so many lines in the channel
[09:45] <wolferine> !pastebin | Bobby_
[09:45] <ubotu> Bobby_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:45] <theone> DarkGuy: do u have it configured correctly in iwconfig first?
[09:45] <DARKGuy> theone: looks like it, I've been trying almost everything I find in google
[09:46] <Bobby_> ok sorry...i am new to linux and IRC
[09:46] <ToddEDM> can someone help me with beryl... there is no one in the beryl channel
[09:46] <ToddEDM> when i start beryl... the tops of all my windows go away... so i cant minimize, or close the window, any hints on how to fix this??????
[09:46] <theone> did u try to refresh the dhcp
[09:46] <wolferine> !patience
[09:46] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:46] <theone> like pump if u have it installed or dhcpcd
[09:47] <DARKGuy> theone: If you know how, it'd be great. In Windows I set its SSID, WEP key (but we could leave it open for this test), channel auto (or it chooses 6 I think), and it connects =/ but not here
[09:47] <Bobby_> i did type my password...now when i try to re-execute that command i get that same error
[09:47] <astro76> ToddEDM, try #ubuntu-effects
[09:47] <ToddEDM> thx astro
[09:47] <sareth> Bobby_ As long as you realize you are new, nobody will mind.
[09:47] <ehc> are there some preinstalled short sound files somewhere on ubuntu?
[09:47] <DARKGuy> theone: nope, not at all, been thinking in installing a dhcp server package in this ubuntu compie
[09:47] <theone> dhcpcd should work tho
[09:47] <wolferine> Bobby, its telling you that command is not available
[09:47] <DARKGuy> just to see if that helps :(
[09:47] <theone> also does it show up in the networking gui?
[09:47] <DARKGuy> in XP yes
[09:47] <DARKGuy> same for network-manager
[09:48] <Bobby_> o i realize that for sure and i really am sorry
[09:48] <DARKGuy> I have wmaster0 and rausb0
[09:48] <wolferine> ehc, not sure why you are thinking the sound is coming from Ubuntu, but mute your sound (in your sound settings), then see if they still happen
[09:48] <DARKGuy> theone: wmaster0 doesn't like any of the iwconfig commands while rausb0 does, if that helps
[09:48] <Bobby_> so what should i do to make the command available or is that possible
[09:49] <wolferine> install it
[09:49] <wolferine> i thought that was obvious
[09:49] <sareth> lol
[09:49] <Bobby_> how do you install it (netconfig)
[09:49] <ehc> wolferine, I think it was just a terminal beep that I didn't notice in the background. Other programs use that beep though so I won't to change them to use different short audio clips, if there are any on ubuntu. I don't have any short audio clips.
[09:49] <sareth> Bobby_, man apt-get
[09:49] <theone> you said you have gotten a diff. computer to connect to the shared ad-hoc network tho?
[09:49] <swiftnomad> Hey guys! I have problems with the display on dual monitors.
[09:49] <DARKGuy> And when I use /etc/init.d/networking restart I get lines that say: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
[09:49] <swiftnomad> http://img484.imageshack.us/img484/6872/screenshotsx2.png
[09:49] <wolferine> Bobby, really, start reading about how linux/ubuntu works, this are REALLY really basic questions, that are covered everywhere on the insternet
[09:50] <DARKGuy> theone: nope, it's this same comp, I have dual boot
[09:50] <theone> does iwlist work for you?
[09:50] <wolferine> ehc, did you do what I said?
[09:50] <sareth> Bobby_ more than likely you will find you dont need to use netconfig
[09:51] <DARKGuy> theone: yes, I get 2 networks around me
[09:51] <Bobby_> well i have searched forums and websites for the last little while and i haven't found and answer...maybe i am just not typing what i am looking for correctly
[09:51] <ToddEDM> there is no one awake in #ubuntu-effects either....... anyone..
[09:51] <theone> so you have two computers one that has the shared ad-hoc network and the other computer has ur dual boot?
[09:51] <ehc> wolferine, Yeah, I think it was coming from a terminal. I haven't heard for a few minutes, but I am still having other programs beep, I need to find some sound files to make them use something differnt than the beep.
[09:51] <sauvin> I have an external Seagate hard drive (USB) with one ext3 and two FAT32 partitions. When I plug it in, dmesg doesn't complain, and lsusb sees it clearly. However, those partitions don't automount. How to get them to automount?
[09:51] <sareth> Bobby_ what are you trying to do?
[09:51] <wolferine> ehc, so your sound is off, yet you hear beeps?
[09:51] <DARKGuy> theone: nope. I'm in my desktop computer which has the dual boot (on Ubuntu atm) and I have my laptop which has Windows XP. Nothing more
[09:52] <DARKGuy> theone: the other 2 networks are from the neighborhood and I can't connect to them due to encryption.
[09:52] <swiftnomad> hey guys. I have a problem. My bg img goes through both screens. Anyone have an idea how to fix it so that both screens have the same img but two times??
[09:52] <swiftnomad> and fix my screenshot?
[09:52] <theone> okay but u are sharing the connection of ur laptop right?
[09:52] <ehc> wolferine, yes, but I have programs using that beep as a notification. I am trying to change them but I need a sound file to change them to.
[09:52] <Bobby_> sareth, i was trying to use that "tool" because i have 2 ethernet network cards in this linux pc and the "eth0" is working fine (this is the connection that has the internet coming from the wall)
[09:52] <wolferine> good luck ehc
[09:52] <sareth> swiftnomad, you have to specify it in xorg.conf
[09:52] <DARKGuy> theone: the contrary, I want to share my eth0 connection so my laptop can use it through the wireless connection
[09:53] <Bobby_> i cannot get the eth1 to send out the internet to my other pcs
[09:53] <theone> ah so set it up through ubuntu
[09:53] <theone> so laptop gets it?
[09:53] <swiftnomad> How do I do that?
[09:53] <swiftnomad> do you want me to pastebin my file?
[09:53] <DARKGuy> theone: correct! :D
[09:53] <theone> haha okay
[09:53] <Bobby_> that is why i was trying to use netconfig
[09:53] <DARKGuy> YAY someone understands me at least
[09:53] <DARKGuy> :D:D:D
[09:54] <wolferine> how can you setup your network when you dont even know how to install?
[09:54] <sareth> Bobby_ search on google how to proxy or bridge to lan cards in ubuntu
[09:54] <sareth> s/two/wo
[09:54] <swiftnomad> sareth, do you want me to paste it in xorg.conf
[09:55] <sareth> swiftnomad, have you ever messed with xorg before?
[09:55] <theone> DARKGuy: you said you had the channels correct right
[09:55] <swiftnomad> Well, not really.
[09:55] <Bobby_> i understand that...but i am trying...i did successfully set up ubuntu, apply updates and get my pc to recognize that there is 2 lan cards and use the eth0
[09:55] <DARKGuy> theone: I can set it up manual. If I place wireless-channel auto in /etc/network/interfaces it shows errors
[09:55] <DARKGuy> theone: same if I do it with iwconfig if I recall correctly
[09:55] <theone> ya don't do auto
[09:56] <theone> pick a channel
[09:56] <theone> and make it the same for both connections
[09:56] <raylu> can someone help me with samba? i have swat installed, but
[09:56] <Bobby_> i aploogize for the simplicity of my questions but i am trying to learn by doing...i was told that that was the best way to learn
[09:56] <theone> also for ur ubuntu setup try through kwifimanager first may save a lot of headaches
[09:56] <raylu> smbclient -L localhost shows everything properly, but my windows computer can do nothing more than connect to the samba server; it shows nothing
[09:56] <DARKGuy> theone: I think the link works, I don't have to specify channels in XP but in Ubuntu it works correctly, as I said the most I can do is to get a link, but not to give IP to the laptop yet :(
[09:56] <DARKGuy> not even a network IP
[09:57] <DARKGuy> theone: okay lemme get it
[09:57] <sareth> swiftnomad, man xorg.conf
[09:57] <swiftnomad> sareth, here is my file:
[09:57] <swiftnomad> http://pastebin.ca/663063
[09:58] <B4-SiCK> Hey fellas, Im in need of a irc client that has built-in bnc support, any suggestions?
[09:58] <wolferine> raylu, getting reading that man again
[09:59] <raylu> wolferine, what manpage?
[09:59] <wolferine> the samba one
[09:59] <lastnode> anyoen here use bcm with feisty?
[10:00] <DARKGuy> theone: okay I have kwifimanager installed now
[10:00] <raylu> i never read that manpage :P i figured swat would take care of it for me
[10:00] <raylu> bcm = ...baylor college of medicine?
[10:00] <theone> ha hey DARKGuy: when you are trying to get an ip from ur ubuntu ad-hoc are u trying to get it assigned via dhcp?
[10:01] <lastnode> raylu, broadcom wifi chip
[10:01] <chrionix> what config file is the default desktop manager kept in?
[10:01] <sareth> swiftnomad, google twinview
[10:01] <raylu> oh :P
[10:01] <DARKGuy> theone: from the XP or the Ubuntu one? my Ubuntu gets it internet IP through dhcp because it's connected to the modem directly. The XP one ... I guess it gets it automatically so it should be
[10:01] <DARKGuy> dhcp too o.O
[10:01] <astro76> lastnode, what's up?
[10:01] <theone> you have to manually set it as a static... that would be your problem
[10:01] <DARKGuy> ahh
[10:01] <DARKGuy> in Ubuntu
[10:01] <DARKGuy> yeah
[10:01] <theone> the XP one u have to
[10:02] <theone> set as static
[10:02] <lastnode> astro76, i last used ndis + bcm with edgy, and it was really flaky. wondering if it's improved in feisty
[10:02] <swiftnomad> ok.
[10:02] <astro76> lastnode, I'm using bcm4306 with open source drivers and it works perfectly (in Feisty)
[10:02] <DARKGuy> if I install a DHCP server on my Ubuntu machine, it will allow the laptop to get automatic IP, even if my wireless has static IP assigend on the desktop?
[10:02] <chrionix> what config file is the default desktop manager kept in?
[10:02] <WaltzingAlong> lastnode: likewise
[10:02] <lastnode> astro76, iirc, 4306 > 4318 as far as native drivers go
[10:02] <sareth> swiftnomad, that should be what you want i believe. cloned screens right or am i wrong and just need to go to bed?
[10:03] <astro76> lastnode, I've heard as much
[10:03] <lastnode> WaltzingAlong, astro76 , would you guys mind joining me in -offtopic for a mo? traffic in here
[10:03] <theone>  well if u do it right i guess, but if u are just trying to give internet to your laptop from ubuntu then just give it a static IP
[10:03] <swiftnomad> well, I want like XP has.
[10:03] <theone>  then you don't have to mess with a dhcp server
[10:03] <swiftnomad> I dont want each screen to share the same image.
[10:03] <chrionix> what config file is the default desktop manager kept in?
[10:04] <DARKGuy> theone: heh, I can live with that :D. As long as the static connection works that'll be for the meanwhile and it'll save a ton of time because I use that laptop for work too, so it's important
[10:04] <DARKGuy> to give it internet
[10:04] <DARKGuy> theone: I can set up the static IP and all through kwifimanager right?
[10:04] <DARKGuy> or should I do it through /etc/network/interfaces ?
[10:04] <theone>  yes only takes about 30 sec to set a static so just do that
[10:04] <DARKGuy> cool
[10:04] <theone>  set static IP in XP
[10:04] <sareth> swiftnomad, ah. hmm, well..... thing that is in the background thing. havent had that problem myself yet. sorry
[10:05] <theone>  Ubuntu is getting a dhcp assigned address through the modem you said, you are sharing that to your windows XP machine, the xp machine must have a static IP based upon your assigned one
[10:05] <swiftnomad> ok.
[10:05] <swiftnomad> ill restart. one moment
[10:05] <theone>  something like 192.168.1.1
[10:05] <theone> depending
[10:05] <DARKGuy> theone: Which in turn will be the one I give to the wireless on the desktop ?
[10:07] <DARKGuy> theone: I can't configure anything in kwifimanager :(
[10:07] <theone> how come?
[10:07] <DARKGuy> theone: dunno, I'll screenshot
[10:08] <theone> u can just do it manually.... make the computer doing the sharing 192.168.1.1
[10:08] <swiftnomad> back.
[10:08] <DARKGuy> alright...
[10:08] <swiftnomad> nothing's changed.
[10:08] <theone> then ur xp one should get the dhcp sorry i had it backwards ha
[10:08] <DARKGuy> xD

[10:26] <kilgore> i was curious if anyone knows of a debian based distro with flux box a s its main GUI and easy to use
[10:26] <kilgore> reliable
[10:26] <DARKGuy> theone: and Wireless on the desktop has: Address 192.168.1.1 - Network 192.168.0.0 - Netmask 255.255.255.0 and gateway 192.168.0.1
[10:27] <theone> hm, some configuration along the way must be messed up then, have u gone through these steps each:  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[10:27] <astro76> DARKGuy, you seem to have your subnets all mixed up
[10:27] <theone> ya that is messed
[10:27] <astro76> DARKGuy, make them all either .0.x or .1.x, to match your router
[10:27] <DARKGuy> astro76: I have no router
[10:27] <theone> network and gateway
[10:27] <kilgore> anyone?
[10:27] <theone> it makes it so much easier with a router
[10:28] <astro76> DARKGuy, well they should both be on the same subnet anyway
[10:28] <DARKGuy> yeah, but I don't have one :(
[10:28] <DARKGuy> astro76: aren't they?
[10:28] <DARKGuy> I'm confused :/
[10:28] <astro76> no
[10:28] <jesse2134> could someone help me install my wireless drivers for a toshiba a200 laptop?

[10:34] <gikid> so backupsql.sh will run weekly?
[10:34] <Road_kill> jesse2134: HP psc 1315xi (same as 1310 i think)
[10:35] <uase> what generates /etc/network/interfaces?
[10:36] <Floker> where can i post a proposal for gutsy?
[10:36] <theone> have you tried the manual install from nvidia?  http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.09.html

[10:37] <swiftnomad> hey guys. Q: How can I tell whats my KDE version number?
[10:37] <Road_kill> jesse2134: thank you
[10:37] <uase> swiftnomad open up any kde application and click help -> about kde
[10:37] <Floker> swiftnomad, open up kcontrol
[10:37] <Floker> or the "kde control centre"
[10:38] <swiftnomad> ok.
[10:38] <swiftnomad> I just switched from GNOME to KDE so I didnt know. Thanks.
[10:38] <DARKGuy> huh, internet poofed all of a sudden
[10:38] <DARKGuy> theone, astro76: Okay, both are on the same subnet and I can ping 192.168.0.2 (the wireless) from it, and 192.168.0.10 from here (the laptop)
[10:38] <DARKGuy> the laptop, however, has no internet
[10:38] <swiftnomad> and my prtscrn doesnt work. how do you take screenshots??
[10:39] <sebrock> anyone running ubuntu on a mac mini?
[10:39] <astro76> DARKGuy, the computer that has the internet connection needs to be set up to share it
[10:39] <pvandewyngaerde> swiftnomad:  do you have ksnapshot ?
[10:39] <jesse2134> Road_kill, if  you get stuck this link may also help you
[10:39] <Fatalus> at
[10:39] <DARKGuy> astro76: I'm using firestarter to do the job

[10:39] <Jordan_U> Are there any EFI compatible Linux LiveCD's?
[10:39] <swiftnomad> No. I don't believe I do.
[10:40] <ompaul> swiftnomad,  from the menu applications accessories "take screenshot"
[10:40] <swiftnomad> how do I install it?
[10:40] <Fatalus> ati x1550 series have 3D support ??
[10:40] <ompaul> swiftnomad, it is there already
[10:40] <Floker> swiftnomad, you can use gimp to if thats more convinient
[10:40] <ompaul> swiftnomad, set it for 5 seconds from whenever and make the window / menus as you want them
[10:40] <swiftnomad> ya.
[10:41] <ompaul> swiftnomad, are you using kubuntu / ubuntu ?
[10:41] <Floker> he said he switched so maybe he doesnt have all the applications just yet
[10:41] <swiftnomad> ubuntu
[10:41] <DARKGuy> astro76: it's on, set eth0 for internet and rausb1 for sharing, no DHCP over LAN. I can also see SMB events on the Events tab from the laptop's IP, but no outgoing/incoming connections
[10:41] <swiftnomad> but with kde
[10:41] <DARKGuy> astro76: from the laptop's IP in the status window
[10:41] <ompaul> swiftnomad, then launch that from a menu
[10:42] <ompaul> swiftnomad, then launch that from a konsole even
[10:42] <swiftnomad> so at the K
[10:42] <Floker> swiftnomad, did you install the kubuntu-desktop package?
[10:42] <Road_kill> jesse2134: My printer is connected to a USB 1-4 "hub". As in, the item provides 4 USB slots to connect 4 USB devices with only one USB.
[10:42] <Road_kill> jesse2134: Does that make a difference?
[10:42] <swiftnomad> no.
[10:42] <Fatalus> Do you know that ati x1550 series have 3D support??
[10:42] <Floker> swiftnomad, do it :>
[10:42] <brohken-t61> theone: ill try it now. how is it different?
[10:42] <swiftnomad> so it's
[10:42] <ompaul> swiftnomad, if you switched did you do this: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?
[10:42] <brohken-t61> also what is the command to start X from the command line?
[10:42] <jesse2134> Fatalus, yes they have support basicall all radeon above 9500
[10:42] <theone> not sure, haven't installed it ever
[10:43] <swiftnomad> you guys really rock.
[10:43] <Fatalus> jesse2134:thanks
[10:43] <swiftnomad> Im going to do this now.
[10:43] <Floker> try not to split up messages, its quite less readable for us
[10:43] <theone> startx
[10:43] <jesse2134> Road_kill, it might but i don't think it should
[10:43] <ompaul> swiftnomad, >> this is how you get the full kubuntu thing going >> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:43] <Floker> swiftnomad, be careful
[10:43] <Road_kill> jesse2134: Lets hope not :)
[10:43] <theone> lol
[10:43] <jesse2134> Fatalus, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI instructions
[10:44] <Floker> swiftnomad, kubuntu-desktop installs a whole bunch of packages you might not need
[10:44] <theone> who here has beryl?
[11:30] (harmental/#ubuntu) neol: thx
[11:30] (astro76/#ubuntu) EvaLuaTe, Pentium II is i686 so this is not your problem
[11:30] (EvaLuaTe/#ubuntu) stefano_, i already tried that, i also tried to reset my modem, nothing worked ...
[11:30] (MBR666/#ubuntu) brohken-t61,  go to applications, settings and then go to services. scroll down til you see gdm and then uncheck it. reboot and youll be good to go
[11:30] (stefano_/#ubuntu) EvaLuaTe, does the network manager state that you have a connection?
[11:31] (brohken-t61/#ubuntu) thanks guys
[11:31] (brohken-t61/#ubuntu) hope this works
[11:31] (EvaLuaTe/#ubuntu) astro76, in the synaptics it says something like: "Your processor type is i386, this program can't be installed on this processor type' in every programs description
[11:31] (ompaul/#ubuntu) brohken-t61, I use them daily
[11:31] <EvaLuaTe> stefano_ yes, it says connected and all, but the internet doesn't work
[11:32] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, wait a second i have an idea
[11:32] <EvaLuaTe> ok :)
[11:32] <MBR666> astro76, i think he's got a 32bit system and is trying to isntall 64bit software? idk my best guess
[11:33] <stefano_> open up a terminal on your ubuntu machine and type this: ping 64.233.167.99
[11:33] <Tiggzz> ompaul, would it be becuase it now goes, windows, new, ubu, and not windows, ubu ?
[11:33] <EvaLuaTe> but no experiments please, as shutting windows down, booting to ubuntu, shutting ubuntu down and then booting to windows again takes SOME time on my system, so i'm not confortable on doing this over and over again
[11:33] <stefano_> no just a ping
[11:33] <EvaLuaTe> stefano_, it's the same machine i'm using right now, i would have to reboot
[11:34] <ompaul> Tiggzz, that is what I said - don't let it interfer with your existing layout - it needs to be after
[11:34] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, eh, its the same machine?? then you do have internet connection since youre chatting with us
[11:34] <EvaLuaTe> yes, i'm on windows right now
[11:34] <stefano_> ah i see
[11:34] <EvaLuaTe> i'm dual booting windows/ubuntu
[11:34] <stefano_> i was wondering lol
[11:34] <MBR666> EvaLuaTe, its just a ping to see if your system is seeing the outside world
[11:34] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[11:34] <Tiggzz> ompaul, right after teh others, hmm, can't :( thats the way the bios does it.
[11:35] <Tiggzz> can I edit it somehow from a live cd?
[11:35] <EvaLuaTe> MBR666, yes, but i would have to restart, and that really takes some time on a PII
[11:35] <ompaul> !grub | Tiggzz
[11:35] <ubotu> Tiggzz: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:35] <MBR666> yeah i know.. truest me i know
[11:35] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[11:35] <MBR666> i have a p233 first generation and it's painful on that box. thank god for my 64 bit system! yay me
[11:36] <neol> stefano_, what if he installs irssi, or any other terminal irc client, then may b he can try his luck. try once.
[11:36] <EvaLuaTe> so, again to my previous question, is there a way to download 'linux-image-386' using windows and then boot to ubuntu and install it there ?
[11:36] <EvaLuaTe> just wondering ...
[11:36] <stefano_> neol, yes but he said that he doesnt have internet connection
[11:37] <EvaLuaTe> and also i can't install anything, as the programs don't install on i386 processors
[11:37] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, if you have a cd burner and an empty disc, yes
[11:37] <MBR666> EvaLuaTe, fire up your web browser. look for linux-image-386 via google
[11:37] <neol> stefano_, but he mentioned he's network connection shows he is connected.
[11:37] <Tiggzz> ompaul, I'ts only a temp thing, I just need to transfer some data, a live cd would get me into ubu, but I need to go into windows for an hour, then the system will go back to normal
[11:37] <stefano_> neol, yes, i suspect he's having DNS trouble
[11:37] <EvaLuaTe> neol yes, it says it's connected, but still i don't have internet access
[11:38] <MBR666> EvaLuaTe, sounds like your system is fubar when it comes to ubuntu try reintalling or something
[11:38] <ompaul> Tiggzz, so use the live cd and mount the other partitions and work away
[11:38] <MBR666> bad install maybe?
[11:38] <tatters> I am getting error "The following packages have unmet dependencies. E:"  is E an actual package, there is no other text after that message?
[11:38] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, you can download the kernel image as a .deb file and burn it onto a CD, then start linux, put in the CD and double click the file that should work just fine
[11:39] <MBR666> stefano_, agreed. his best option
[11:39] <EvaLuaTe> ok, wait
[11:39] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, but then you will need a other image
[11:39] <EvaLuaTe> Your search - linux-image-386.deb download - did not match any documents.
[11:39] <EvaLuaTe> Your search - linux-image-386.deb - did not match any documents.
[11:39] <EvaLuaTe> hmm :/
[11:40] <ehc> Does flashplayer work on amd64?
[11:40] <neol> ehc, yes
[11:40] <ehc> neol, how can I get it to work?
[11:40] <MBR666> neol, really? i haven't been able to get it to work
[11:40] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe,  http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-image-2.6.20-15-386_2.6.20-15.27_i386.deb
[11:40] <stefano_> thats the one
[11:41] <neol> MBR666, its a pain in a**, so get it work, so i again installed back x86 version. :(
[11:41] <stefano_> ehc, not without a little work i think
[11:41] <ehc> stefano_, okay is there a someplace that talks about it?
[11:42] <EvaLuaTe> stefano_, and then just double click that in ubuntu ?
[11:42] <stefano_> ehc, try the ubuntu wiki (wiki.ubuntu.com) i think there should be a page about this issue somewhere
[11:42] <MBR666> ehc, are you using a 64 bit OS ? if not then you'll be fine with flash. if you're using 64bit OS and browser. good luck and let me know how ya get it working
[11:43] <ehc> MBR666, I am  running 7.04 amd64
[11:43] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, yes, if it asks for other files (calld dependencies, than man im sorry, but i really think you'll just need this one package)
[11:43] <MBR666> ehc, let me know
[11:43] <MBR666> lol
[11:43] <stefano_> doubleclick it and let GDEBI do the rest
[11:43] <EvaLuaTe> ok
[11:43] <EvaLuaTe> i'll be right back
[11:43] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, allthough you might have to click a little "yes" here and there
[11:43] <EvaLuaTe> hope that works :)
[11:44] <stefano_> best of luck
[11:44] <EvaLuaTe> thanks to everyone for the help
[11:44] <MBR666> hats off to ya

[11:49] <Flannel> !ask | Eryth
[11:49] <ubotu> Eryth: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:49] <finalbeta> !ask
[11:49] <Enselic> brownie17: ln -s /original/folder /new/symlinked/folder
[11:49] <Eryth> lol
[11:49] <ompaul> brohken-t61, and the info is on that page how to do a manual install -- start here sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:50] <Eryth> ok so i have a soundblaster audigy se, but I can't find any drivers for it, and it's not working after I installed ubuntu and ubuntu only. Are there any drivers for my sound card available?
[11:50] <captainigloo> I try to to use nvidia geforce 8600GTS with ubuntu and nvidia-glx package but without succes
[11:50] <stefano_> brownie17, type man ls
[11:50] <captainigloo> have any one same problem with this card ?
[11:50] <finalbeta> Eryth: no idea, check the alsa pages, and perhaps they can help you in #alsa
[11:50] <stefano_> brownie17, or "ls --help" but i recommend "man ln"
[11:50] <Eryth> ok thanks finalbeta
[11:51] <Eryth> now for my second question, are higher screen resolutions than 1024x860 available after I installed ATI drivers?
[11:51] <brownie17> stefano_, thanks
[11:51] <MBR666> brohken-t61, i pm you
[11:52] <stefano_> Enselic, i hope he saw your answer and follows it rather than mine :) quit all to fast
[11:52] <Tiggzz> thanks ompaul. I've put the temp drive inplace of the cd, it seems to like that
[11:52] <brohken-t61> MBR666: im replying did you get it?
[11:52] <ompaul> Tiggzz, well that does not upset the order of things
[11:52] <MBR666> brohken-t61, no

[11:53] <AmirB> Hey, I just followed Vorian (from the forums) guide for installing compiz fusion but it didn't work and I tried to uninstall it and get the normal compiz (that comes with feisty) back and my whole system went all screwy!
[11:53] <Enselic> Cyrus25801: maybe if you describe what kind of copmuter it is
[11:53] <AmirB> help!
[11:53] <MBR666> brohken-t61,  well for whatever reason that's not working
[11:53] <brohken-t61> weird
[11:53] <Enselic> stefano_: :)
[11:53] <finalbeta> Eryth: I think whatever resolution you screen supports should be available, possibly after editing your xorg.conf
[11:54] <MBR666> sure is
[11:54] <MBR666> brohken-t61, fire up snyaptic package manager
[11:54] <brohken-t61> did
[11:54] <MBR666> go to settigns
[11:54] <neol> MBR666, brohken both should be registered in order to send pm to each. ;)
[11:55] <MBR666> i'm registered
[11:55] <AmirB> sudo apt-get install -f doesn't even work! help!
[11:55] <unics> ok, now atleast my internet works
[11:55] <gp> hello
[11:55] <neol> then he is not.
[11:55] <Cyrus25801> Enselic: it is a PDA phone
[11:55] <gp> how to find a size of file in ubuntu ?
[11:55] <Enselic> gp: ls -lh in dir
[11:55] <gp> du gives the the folder size
[11:56] <MBR666> brohken-t61, ok go to settings and then repositories
[11:56] <Enselic> gp: or rigthlcik -> properties in Nautilus
[11:56] <brohken-t61> ok
[11:56] <gp> i am on shh to my server
[11:56] <unics> ok, i installed the 386 image, brb restarting
[11:56] <Enselic> gp: ls -lh then
[11:56] <MBR666> brohken-t61, uncheck source cdrom and then check canonical-support - main
[11:57] <gp> oks
[11:57] <Enselic> gp: meaning: list, human-readalbe sizes
[11:57] <gp> yeah it works thanx
[11:57] <MBR666> brohken-t61, check universe, restriced and multiverse and if you want source code check that too
[11:57] <gp> one more core 2 dua is 32 bit or 64 bit ?
[11:58] <gp> i got a core 2 dua laptop
[11:58] <Enselic> gp: a more clear way of writing it (which I probably should have don in the first place) is   ls -l --human-readable
[11:58] <Enselic> gp: me too
[11:58] <forum2006> bah, annoying keyring password :(
[11:58] <gp> so
[11:58] <MBR666> brohken-t61,  then where is says download from. it's a server selection. select the proper one for you. US servers if you're US and such
[11:58] <Cyrus25801> Enselic: do you know where i can find a tut to install linux on a PDA phone running windows 5.0
[11:58] <Enselic> Cyrus25801: nope
[11:58] <xeer> i was installing grub on a floppy, somehow it managed to modify the grub i use for my system. i have no clue what my kernel filename was. i'm using feisty fawn on a amd64
[11:59] <brohken-t61> mbr done
[11:59] <Cyrus25801> .
[11:59] <Enselic> xeer: mount the root dir and look in /boot
[11:59] <gp> Enselic: should i install 64 bit or 32 bit version of ubuntu on core 2dua laptop ?
[11:59] <MBR666> brohken-t61,  now do a search for nvidia with synaptic manager and you should be golden.
[11:59] <xeer> i had just updated my kernel not more then a few days ago
[11:59] <Enselic> gp: 32bi
[11:59] <AmirB> Hey, I just followed Vorian (from the forums) guide for installing compiz fusion but it didn't work and I tried to uninstall it and get the normal compiz (that comes with feisty) back and my whole system went all screwy!
[11:59] <xeer> yeah, how do i 'look' while inside grub?
[11:59] <Enselic> xeer: I recomend you to do it with a live CD insead of with GRUB
[12:00] <mailavj> help needed , i'm usin fiesty , some times after re bootin, i'm able to see panels only in first desktop. I have enabled desktop effects
[12:00] <MBR666> brb gotta burn a cd
[12:00] <Enselic> xeer: for example with the Ubuntu Install LIVE CD
[12:00] <xeer> bahh i have to burn a flippin cd for this! it's just a stupid filename
[12:00] <swiftnomad> Hello. I have an problem.
[12:00] <swiftnomad> I get this error when trying to compile something: checking for KDE... configure: error:
[12:00] <swiftnomad> in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
[12:00] <swiftnomad> So, check this please and use another prefix!
[12:00] <gp> so core 2 dua is 32 bit as wikipedia its 64 bit
[12:00] <The_Penner_8115> hi
[12:00] <Enselic> gp: Unless you have AMD64 you are recomended to install 32-bit version
[12:00] <forum2006> on feisty i have autologin enabled. i installed libpam-keyring package and added "@include common-pamkeyring" to /etc/pam.d/{gdm,gdm-autologin} but it still asks for a annoying password :( what else can i do?
[12:01] <Enselic> gp: it's your choise though
[12:01] <Cyrus25801> does anyone know where i can find a tutorial to install linux on a PDA phone running windows 5.0
[12:01] <sfire> gp: the core 2 duo is 64bit although I run 32 bit
[12:01] <sport>  is it likely that a bios would be set to boot from harddrive before USB ports? In the case of booting linux from a USB w/ a persistent partition
[12:01] <xeer> Enselic, my burner is on the system that wont boot. there has to be another alternative. what about pxe or floppy booting?
[12:01] <gp> so me IA 64 extension are well supported ??
[12:01] <sport> or possible
[12:01] <ompaul> swiftnomad, did you sudo apt-get install build-essentials ? did you sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ? these should get you on your way
[12:01] <sfire> gp: yes
[12:01] <Enselic> xeer: whatever you please
[12:02] <sauvin> What's the filesize limit for ext3?
[12:02] <swiftnomad> I didnt: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[12:02] <neol> stefano_, looks like evaluate is still bootin.. lol
[12:02] <swiftnomad> I am now though.
[12:02] <xeer> is there a linux flavor that would let me get to bash on a floppy?
[12:02] <Enselic> swiftnomad: build-essetial*
[12:02] <sport> anyone here about the delay of xorg for ubuntu ?
[12:02] <Enselic> xeer: of couse, what did you think :)
[12:02] <gp> IA 64 extension are  not well supported  in core 2 dua ??
[12:02] <Enselic> gp: not afaik
[12:02] <sfire> gp: they are perfect
[12:02] <Enselic> gp: is it Duo?
[12:03] <stefano_> neol, it worked and he has fun with his new ubuntu, chosen to take care of the internet problem later
[12:03] <stefano_> :>
[12:03] <Enselic> gp: what sfire says
[12:03] <gp> yup
[12:03] <EvaLuaTe> ok
[12:03] <stefano_> hey EvaLuaTe how did it do?
[12:03] <EvaLuaTe> so i installed linux-image-386 succesfully, still i get this:
[12:03] <EvaLuaTe> Ark cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[12:04] <sfire> gp: I still suggest going 32 bit.. some of the apps don't work in 64bit yet
[12:04] <EvaLuaTe> the internet connection works now though
[12:04] <gp> oks
[12:04] <MBR666> EvaLuaTe, at least your net works
[12:04] <stefano_> great
[12:04] <sfire> unless you got 4 gigs of ram (which I do) you lose out on 1 gig with 32 bit
[12:04] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, that's good
[12:04] <MBR666> EvaLuaTe, you've got some goofy problems there though
[12:04] <sport>  is it likely/possible that a bios would be set to boot from harddrive before USB ports, I mean don't computer always check for USB hardware before? In the case of booting linux from a USB w/ a persistent partition
[12:04] <brohken-t61> MBR666: ok i installed nvidia-glx-new
[12:05] <MBR666> brohken-t61, although you just have to start x11. i'd reboot your whole system.
[12:05] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, some programs might not run on your PC, thats due to its very old processor, and i think the only way to get around this is to compile the programs yourself. thats rather hard to do for someone with no linux experience
[12:05] <swiftnomad> !Enselic the command: sudo apt-get install build-essetial said it couldn't find it.
[12:05] <brohken-t61> MBR666:  is that the only thing i needed?
[12:05] <MBR666> brohken-t61, afaik. hangon i'll double check
[12:05] <stefano_> but maybe you find some help in a forum
[12:05] <Enselic> swiftnomad: build-essential*
[12:06] <EvaLuaTe> so how could i make synaptics work ?
[12:06] <EvaLuaTe> stefano_, i already installed prgrams like ark or xchat before on other distros
[12:06] <brohken-t61> thanks man
[12:06] <brohken-t61> you rock
[12:06] <Enselic> EvaLuaTe: what is broken with it?
[12:06] <ripps> hii all...i want to know can i use remote desktop fascility while using berl xgl session...any help??
[12:06] <swiftnomad> thank you.
[12:06] <MBR666> brohken-t61, i have a few nvidia things installed. here they are as follows
[12:06] <EvaLuaTe> Enselic: i get this in every programs description: Ark cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[12:06] <ripps> hii all...i want to know can i use remote desktop fascility while using beryl xgl session...any help??
[12:07] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, oh i see, so its not just some special apps but most? mh. okay i think everything should run somehow then, but i dont exactly know how. by the way, ubuntu is a pretty heavy distribution for such an old computer
[12:07] <Enselic> EvaLuaTe: does sudo apt-get install work?
[12:07] <EvaLuaTe> wait
[12:07] <swiftnomad> now it says that build-essential is already the newest version.
[12:07] <Enselic> swiftnomad: great, then you don't have to download and install it
[12:07] <swiftnomad> but when Im trying to compile something. Its not letting me.
[12:08] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, i would suggest, now that your internet connection works, you should try find some help on the other problems at a forum, since it is pretty heavy to discuss them here
[12:08] <Enselic> swiftnomad: what does it say whe you try?
[12:08] <zylogue> greetings...

[12:08] <EvaLuaTe> ohh, nice
[12:08] <xeer> and, is it -generic-amd64 or just -amd64?
[12:08] <MBR666> brohken-t61, those packages and my system runs great with opengl
[12:09] <MBR666> brohken-t61, did you catch my prior message?
[12:09] <zylogue> can anyone point me to an online document for installing ubuntu to a USB pen drive?  I have a 2GB drive and the installer on the cd runs out of space on the pendrive.
[12:09] <brohken-t61> MBR666: i did not
[12:09] <MBR666> brohken-t61,  nvidia-kernel-common, restricted manager, <- for restricted video drivers and such, xserver-xorg-nv, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic

[12:09] <swiftnomad> checking for KDE... configure: error:
[12:09] <swiftnomad> in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
[12:09] <swiftnomad> So, check this please and use another prefix!
[12:09] <stefano_> EvaLuaTe, try this: start synaptic and tell it to retrieve packages from the internet, then you have a basis for installing additional software
[12:10] <EvaLuaTe> i'm on it :)
[12:10] <MBR666> brohken-t61, and my system runs great with nvidia and such. but i'm running an older nvidia card too. 5200fx i think. hell i don't even know. i've got a few systems around here
[12:10] <gp> how can i get wget to follow link ?
[12:10] <stefano_> !repositories

[12:11] <brohken-t61> also how do i run nvidia's manager?
[12:11] <AmirB> please help! I am unable to install any packages until resolving this problem!
[12:11] <AmirB> Hey, I just followed Vorian (from the forums) guide for installing compiz fusion but it didn't work and I tried to uninstall it and get the normal compiz (that comes with feisty) back and my whole system went all screwy!

[12:13] <Enselic> swiftnomad: try sudo apt-get install kde-devel
[12:13] <swiftnomad> How do you know all this stuff?
[12:13] <Enselic> !ask | AmirB
[12:13] <ubotu> AmirB: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:13] <AmirB> I just followed Vorian (from the forums) guide for installing compiz fusion but it didn't work and I tried to uninstall it and get the normal compiz (that comes with feisty) back and my whole system went all screwy!
[12:14] <AmirB> it's telling me I have unmet dependencies and to run sudo apt-get install -f
[12:14] <zylogue> Installing 6.06 from cd to USB pen drive is failing.  reports running out of space on a 2GB key.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
[12:14] <AmirB> but when I do that it tells me it is unable to correct the dependencies
[12:14] <AmirB> and now it's not letting me install anyother packages until I resolve this problem!
[12:15] <AmirB> here's a link to his guide:
[12:15] <AmirB> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481314&highlight=awn+leapord
[12:15] <MBR666> AmirB, the best bet. just don't use all the flashy dumb gagets. i hate berly, compiz to slow and unneeded flashy crap. thats why i don't use kde. xfce is the sh!t my man. nice, lightweight and fast as all hell
[12:15] <brohken-t61> MBR666: back
[12:15] <mailavj> how can i access and setup various services like sshd and telnetd in fiesty, i'm new to ubuntu
[12:15] <MBR666> that was fast
[12:15] <brohken-t61> looks to not have killed my system
[12:15] <brohken-t61> heh
[12:15] <brohken-t61> what do i do now?
[12:15] <MBR666> notta
[12:15] <MBR666> you're good to go brohken-t61
[12:16] <brohken-t61> how do i pull up the nvidia toolset?
[12:16] <MBR666> brohken-t61, idk i never have
[12:16] <faileas> mailavj: telnet should be there by default. to install a sshd sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[12:16] <MBR666> lol
[12:16] <AmirB> MBR666: but that's not a good solution, that's just ignoring the problem! compiz worked absolutely fine for me until I tried to upgrade to fusion and I would like it back ;)
[12:16] <mailavj> okay
[12:16] <faileas> then access it as per normal
[12:16] <brohken-t61> does anyone know how i can do that?
[12:16] <mailavj> faileas:how can i activate and de activate those servers?
[12:16] <MBR666> AmirB, i find that berly and related are just buggy resource hogs. so i stay away from them
[12:17] <faileas> mailavj: check up the man pages. or just firewall those ports when not in use ;)
[12:17] <AmirB> well, I don't...so...
[12:17] <brohken-t61> MBR666: so how am i certain i have full 3d support, etc?
[12:18] <MBR666> brohken-t61, just install a quick 3d rendering application and test it. may it be a 3d game, screen saver whatever. thats how i did it
[12:18] <MBR666> brohken-t61, i also enabled anti aliasing too. prior to driver install i couldn't do that
[12:18] <ehc> has anyone gotten gdesklets to work   while running feisty 64bit
[12:18] <sauvin> glxgears, maybe?
[12:19] <brohken-t61> nvidia-manager should work... but doesnt
[12:19] <brohken-t61> hmm
[12:19] <EvaLuaTe> is there a guie on the net to tweak ubuntu ? i mean, like, disabling all eye-candy and unneeded stuff so it runs better ?
[12:19] <MBR666> brohken-t61, what error?
[12:19] <EvaLuaTe> guide*
[12:19] <brohken-t61> no error
[12:19] <brohken-t61> not a command
[12:20] <sauvin> Take your trance and trancelate it somewhere else!
[12:20] <AmirB> MBR666: anyways, regardless of whether or not compiz is worth the system hog, I need to do something about the problem because ubuntu is not letting me install ANY packages until I fix it!

[12:21] <AmirB> MBR666: ah well, thanks anyways
[12:21] <MBR666> yup
[12:21] <knoppix> ii
[12:21] <AmirB> does anyone else know anything about fixing dependency problems?
[12:23] <brohken-t61> MBR666: if u try nvidia-settings you will see something come up
[12:23] <brohken-t61> but there is still a toolset that will let me setup twin screens
[12:23] <scorp123> AmirB: sorry I just joined .... what's the problem? 'apt' should handle this auto-magically for you.
[12:23] <brohken-t61> anyone know how to get that working?
[12:23] <T-Connect> I fix the Wolfenstein problem that I had.
[12:25] <AmirB> scorp123: if only...what happened was I tried following Vorian's guide for installing compiz fusion but it didn't work and so I tried reverting back to the original compiz that comes with feisty, but it told me that some dependincies were broken and to run sudo apt-get install -f to repair, but that doesn't help, it just keeps telling me they have unmet dependencies!
[12:25] <Esteth> I'd like to upgrade from gaim (which comes with feisty) to pidgin, but pidgin does not appear to be in synaptic/apt-get. Does anyone know which repo i have to add to get a pidgin .deb?
[12:25] <cyberphaz> sec esteth
[12:25] <cyberphaz> i use pidgin in feisty
[12:25] <cyberphaz> let me find the rep i got it from
[12:26] <MBR666> brohken-t61, bah i forgot to tell ya. install nvidia-glx-new i don't have it installed but the package says it does what you want
[12:26] <Esteth> cyberphaz: Thanks :)
[12:26] <MBR666> brohken-t61, it says monitor tweaks and such
[12:26] <swiftnomad> I've noticed something with gaim and pidgin that I didn't like- it crashed ALOT for me. When someone signs off.
[12:26] <swiftnomad> and you typed to speak with them
[12:26] <AmirB> scorp123: now not only do I not have a usable version of compiz, it also wont let me install ANY other packages until I fix the problem
[12:26] <brohken-t61> MBR666: i did install that one
[12:26] <cyberphaz> esteth http://falcon.landure.fr feisty pidgin
[12:26] <cyberphaz> source and binary
[12:27] <scorp123> AmirB: what problem?
[12:27] <brohken-t61> i dont know where to get to those settings/options
[12:27] <Esteth> swiftnomad: I've been using it for a while on windows, and it's been extremely stable for me
[12:27] <Esteth> cyberphaz: <3
[12:27] <kahrytan> swiftnomad, uninstall gaim
[12:27] <cyberphaz> pidgin rocks i use it with OTR and everything and have not had a single problem with it
[12:27] <cyberphaz> unlike gaim
[12:27] <MBR666> brohken-t61,  drop to terminal and type nvidia. then hit tab for command completion
[12:27] <brohken-t61> mbr i did
[12:27] <brohken-t61> heh
[12:27] <brohken-t61> nothing im looking for
[12:27] <swiftnomad> i did and i use a dif client
[12:27] <cyberphaz> but finding a good repo for it was tricky
[12:27] <T-Connect> uninstall gaim < I may do that too.
[12:28] <T-Connect> I don't use that.
[12:28] <cyberphaz> took me a few hours to find this repo, the getdeb ones sucked
[12:28] <MBR666> brohken-t61, what comes up? i have all the tools needed to config nvida video cards

[12:29] <quittt> I want to know if it exists and program for Windows that can resume it
[12:29] <MBR666> brohken-t61, they bring up the nvidia tool sets
[12:29] <MBR666> brohken-t61, i'm runing them atm

[12:34] <Myelin> I have installed Xubuntu-desktop on ubuntu, is there a guide which i was supposed to follow to start it?

[12:34] <swiftnomad> What can I use to use unrar ??
[12:34] <MBR666> swiftnomad, unrar is an unrar program

[12:35] <AmirB> scorp123: when I run sudo apt-get install -f it gives me a long list of dependency issues and then tells me:
[12:35] <AmirB> E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
[12:35] <swiftnomad> yeah because ark doesn't support it.
[12:35] <Downsay[Linux] > can someone here help me install thunderbird 3 for linux?
[12:35] <swiftnomad> than you guys.
[12:35] <AmirB> scorp123: what does this mean?
[12:35] <scorp123> swiftnomad: rar e file.rar
[12:35] <ricach> hello, I have registered in the Ubuntu translation team. Who can be my mentor for  English into German translation?
[12:37] <Aquarion> Anyone know how to get Ubuntu to re-detect my sound-card? Just upgraded.
[12:37] <MBR666> brohken-t61, i have to get going. wish you the best of luck. at least we got you mostly there.
[12:37] <Downsay[Linux] > anyone here use thunderbird 3 for linux?
[12:37] <jimmitastic> Hmm I'm a 100% newbie and I've just downloaded ubuntu...I'm trying to ./configure emacs and I get a "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" error....
[12:37] <brohken-t61> MBR666: thanks man
[12:37] <scorp123> jimmitastic: use the repos :-/
[12:37] <Aquarion> jimmitastic: Can't you just apt-get install emacs?
[12:37] <MBR666> brohken-t61, you're welcome. and again good luck and hope you get it working
[12:37] <scorp123> jimmitastic: apt-get install emacs
[12:38] <Downsay[Linux] > I'm 3 days into linux now and I'm not sure how to install programs on linux just yet......can I get some help?
[12:38] <Esteth> Aquarion: it's apt-get install emacs21
[12:38] <scorp123> jimmitastic: compiling stuff yourself is something you can do once you have more knowledge
[12:38] <Myelin> Hello, anyone can tell that if how can i start xfce4 after installing xubuntu-desktop on ubuntu?
[12:38] <boontoo> can i get help installing rights to a private WPA2 enterprise account?
[12:38] <MBR666> Downsay[Linux] , i'm heading out but yes. if you're using ubuntu. go to the synaptic manager *gui* or you can use apt-get from CLI
[12:38] <jimmitastic> fair enough but I thinki its just a small problem related to permissions of gcc
[12:38] <Downsay[Linux] > yes, using ubuntu
[12:39] <Aquarion> jimmitastic: If you really have to compile it, do you have write permissions for the directory it's trying to create them in?
[12:39] <MBR666> Downsay[Linux] , then in the menu applications, system, synaptic manager
[12:39] <jimmitastic> faileas: Ok im not a 100% newbie to development ;) just to linux
[12:39] <MBR666> goodbye cruel world
[12:39] <jimmitastic> Aquarion I assume so, I tried su to make me root user
[12:39] <boontoo> would this be correct to follow on Ubuntu? http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/support/pub:rmit-wpa
[12:40] <scorp123> jimmitastic: and you are sure that all the relevant packages for compiling stuff are even installed?
[12:40] <faileas> jimmitastic: sudo command is about the same as su
[12:40] <Aquarion> So you now have a "#" prompt instead of a "$" one?
[12:40] <scorp123> jimmitastic: you don't need to be root for a simple ./configure command
[12:40] <Downsay[Linux] > I've got the synaptic manager opened...how do I download thunderbird 3 for linux and get it installed ?
[12:40] <jimmitastic> yup
[12:40] <faileas> and that
[12:40] <jimmitastic> aquarion: yup
[12:40] <Aquarion> Do you have gcc installed?
[12:40] <jimmitastic> yes I have gcc, according to synaptic I did
[12:40] <K3nto> !bchunk
[12:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bchunk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:41] <jimmitastic> cd /
[12:41] <jimmitastic> dir
[12:41] <K3nto> anybody know how to use bchunk?
[12:41] <jimmitastic> haha ignore that :$
[12:41] <oompaloompa> what is bchunk?
[12:41] <oompaloompa> sounds like after a bad dinner
[12:41] <oompaloompa> lol
[12:41] <K3nto> bin/cue ----> .iso
[12:41] <oompaloompa> ah
[12:41] <tarek_> i wanted to know how to get rid of the drumming when you want to log on to ubuntu
[12:42] <Aquarion> bchunk's a thing for turning bin/cue files into isos
[12:42] <koala_man> can I install ubuntu from an existing linux installation (without rebooting and such)?
[12:42] <kent> tarek_: system->settings->sound  ?
[12:42] <Enselic> koala_man: without rebooting? nah...
[12:42] <Enselic> koala_man: if you want to use the Ubuntu kernel
[12:42] <tarek_> kent: done that
[12:42] <tarek_> didnt work
[12:43] <koala_man> Enselic: does the ubuntu installation require the ubuntu kernel?
[12:43] <K3nto> tarek_: yeah i have two iso files now : /
[12:43] <kent> tarek_: you unchecked the settings for the loginsound under the right tab in that menu?
[12:43] <Enselic> koala_man: if you want it to be an Ubuntu system, sure
[12:43] <ricach> Is there anyone who translates Ubuntu?
[12:43] <Enselic> koala_man: if not, you can expect things not to work
[12:43] <Downsay[Linux] > can I get some help installing and running thunderbird on ubuntu, please?
[12:43] <Enselic> ricach: a lot of ppl
[12:43] <Enselic> ricach: mostly the GNOME translation team
[12:43] <Enselic> ricach: mostly volunteers
[12:44] <Aquarion> K3nto: So what do you want out of the iso file?
[12:44] <tarek_> kent: im now in the sound preferences
[12:44] <oompaloompa> thunderbird should be in the repository
[12:44] <tarek_> the right tab is the system beep
[12:44] <Aquarion> K3nto: Or, rather, did you want to burn it, or just get at the stuff inside?
[12:44] <ricach> I have already translated from English into german and search for a mentor.
[12:45] <koala_man> Enselic: the ubuntu installer I meant. I want to do a full ubuntu installation on an external disk since I can't do the installation on the target box, and I can't go rebooting the other box
[12:46] <K3nto> Aquarion: i just want to mount it an dwatch the movie lol
[12:46] <jimmitastic> jim@jim-laptop:/usr/bin$ dir -l gcc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2007-08-19 01:55 gcc -> gcc-4.1
[12:46] <kdd> join #bmp
[12:46] <tarek_> kent: and are there any DVD images of ubuntu?
[12:46] <Enselic> koala_man: you can copy installation CD contents over to a partition and setup GRUB too boot that partition, causing the installaion program to run
[12:46] <K3nto> tarek_: yeah
[12:46] <jimmitastic> so this means I have it.....it just can't create the output file for some reason
[12:47] <Downsay[Linux] > oompaloompa, I'm new to using linux and I'm not sure which thunderbird I should mark and then apply...there are tons of thunderbird options
[12:47] <K3nto> tarek_: i think you can burn the cd image to dvd
[12:47] <tarek_> K3nto: can you give me the link
[12:47] <koala_man> well, I guess gentoo can do it then
[12:47] <molnitza> Hello - I want to disable the write cache for usb sticks and external harddrives. Is this possible?
[12:47] <Enselic> koala_man: this inly works on Alternative supposedly, and I have not been able to get it to work yet, the instalation starts, but fails to mount installation CD
[12:47] <oompaloompa> Downsay[Linux] : ok hold on
[12:47] <K3nto> Aquarion: will i be able to do that?
[12:47] <Downsay[Linux] > oompaloompa, ok, thanks a lot
[12:48] <oompaloompa> Downsay[Linux] : install mozilla-thunderbird, it's 30 MB
[12:48] <oompaloompa> just check that one for installation
[12:48] <Aquarion> K3nto: sudo mkdir /media/ISO && sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 $FILENAME /media/ISO
[12:48] <oompaloompa> apply
[12:48] <tokj> salve
[12:48] <oompaloompa> and it will ask you to mark some other stuff for dependencies
[12:48] <jimmitastic> am I right in thinking that if I run as root then permissions will not be a problem, or, since I am running ./configure, actually permissions will matter since it is the program effectively compiling the program???
[12:48] <tarek_> K3nto: well i wanted to download a DVD image because where ill be going, has a poor internet connection
[12:48] <oompaloompa> hit mark
[12:48] <oompaloompa> and apply
[12:48] <oompaloompa> that's it
[12:49] <Aquarion> jimmitastic: Permissions won't matter, root has the ability to clobber anything
[12:49] <oompaloompa> Downsay[Linux] : u get that?
[12:49] <swiftnomad> in order to use a bootsplash theme I need to recompile my kernel?
[12:49] <Downsay[Linux] > oompaloompa, I'm installing it now...does this version have tabs ?
[12:49] <Aquarion> swiftnomad: No
[12:50] <swiftnomad> ok.
[12:50] <K3nto> Aquarion: for $FILENAME do i put /path/to/my/iso/file.iso
[12:50] <Aquarion> K3nto: Yes
[12:50] <K3nto> Aquarion: k ty
[12:50] <Aquarion> swiftnomad: Er. I may be entirely wrong about that. You don't mean grub splash, do you?
[12:51] <swiftnomad> no. I dont have anything but linux on here. but. I want to install this: Fingerprint Bootsplash
[12:51] <swiftnomad> http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=29662&forumpage=0
[12:51] <Downsay[Linux] > oompaloompa, what type of mail server is gmail?
[12:51] <oompaloompa> pop
[12:52] <oompaloompa> pop.gmail.com
[12:52] <Downsay[Linux] > thx
[12:52] <Aquarion> swiftnomad: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Change-Ubuntu-Bootsplash-Theme-55237.shtml
[12:52] <oompaloompa> outgoing is smtp.gmail.com
[12:52] <swiftnomad> ty
[12:53] <oompaloompa> Downsay[Linux] : use port 995 for pop and 587 for smtp
[12:53] <Downsay[Linux] > oompaloompa, do I have to set that?  I didn't see anywhere to set it
[12:54] <swiftnomad> !Aquarion I get this error. Reading package lists... Done
[12:54] <swiftnomad> Building dependency tree
[12:54] <swiftnomad> Reading state information... Done
[12:54] <swiftnomad> gcc is already the newest version.
[12:54] <swiftnomad> Package usplash-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:54] <swiftnomad> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[12:54] <swiftnomad> is only available from another source
[12:54] <swiftnomad> However the following packages replace it:
[12:54] <swiftnomad>   libusplash-dev
[12:54] <swiftnomad> E: Package usplash-dev has no installation candidate
[12:54] <jimmitastic> hmm but if I have gcc, and I am root so permissions aren't a problem, are there any other obvious things I may have missed?
[12:55] <Aquarion> swiftnomad: I'd suggest libusplash-dev instead, then, but we're going out of the realms of stuff I know anywhing about specifically :)
[12:55] <DrHalan> how can i completely remove wine and its applications because i accidently installed IE
[12:56] <Aquarion> ...accidentally...
[12:56] <swiftnomad> =) either do I. =X GNOME is so much easier.
[12:56] <stdin> DrHalan: the apps and wine config are all in ~/.wine , remove that and you can start fresh
[12:56] <DrHalan> Aquarion, im a kraut ;)
[12:57] <Sp4rKy> hi
[12:57] <Aquarion> It's not that, it's how do you _accidentally_ install IE? :-D
[12:57] <Sp4rKy> anyone who know pretty well gpg ?
[12:57] <Sp4rKy> +s
[12:57] <towlie>  do i make the trash can reappear on my desktop
[12:57] <Sp4rKy> how can i force yes anwser to the questions asked by gpg ?
[12:57] <NETabuse> Hey guys.. sooo bored  with the media player interfaces, was on windows briefly watching some 4400, i love the divx player interface, makes the experience more enjoyable..
[12:57] <towlie> it suddenly disappeared recently
[12:57] <swiftnomad> !sp4rKy  what's up!
[12:58] <NETabuse> I just tried to skin vlc, sucked,, totaly broke the interface
[12:58] <scorp123> NETabuse: there is tons of skins e.g. for 'mplayer' on Linux. :-)
[12:58] <etuardu> hi, i installed the video codecs to play windows' formats but now when i run totem or vlc to play any video file, the program suddenly close... what should i do?
[12:58] <towlie> how do i make the trash icon appear on the desktop ?
[12:58] <Aquarion> towlie: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/add-the-trash-can-icon-to-your-ubuntu-desktop/
[12:58] <NETabuse> scorp123, yeh, cool,, hmm are they reliable? i've justhad to wipe vlc and re-install it
[12:59] <scorp123> NETabuse: depends on your machine I guess. I never had any troubles.
[12:59] <kent> towlie: its a setting in the gconf-editor.
[01:00] <kent> towlie: dont think gconf-editor is in the menu so you need to start it manually with alt+f2  and then enter gconf-editor
[01:00] <NETabuse> scorp123, well, all i did was download one of the skin friles from vlc.com or whatever it was.
[01:00] <kent> towlie: in the nautilus-section.. there is a setting for it
[01:00] <towlie> k i got it
[01:00] <Downsay[Linux] > I can't get thunderbird to connect to my gmail account...could someone see if I have the proper settings/
[01:00] <Downsay[Linux] > ?
[01:01] <dooglus_> Downsay[Linux] : I'll take a look
[01:02] <swiftnomad> pop.gmail.com smpt.gmail.com
[01:02] <daurnimator> hi all
[01:02] <dooglus_> swiftnomad: smtp, you mean?
[01:02] <daurnimator> where can I find the release schedule?
[01:02] <swiftnomad> ah. typo. =X
[01:02] <dooglus_> swiftnomad: I don't think thunderbird allows for typos
[01:02] <Downsay[Linux] > dooglus_, swiftnomad  those are the settings I have it set at...my ports I've tried to set pop to 995 and smtp to 587
[01:03] <stdin> daurnimator: for gutsy?
[01:03] <dooglus_> Downsay[Linux] : leave the ports alone - just use ssl for both
[01:03] <daurnimator> sure
[01:03] <brownie17> hi, trying to make a symbolic link. typed this in " ln -s smb://acer-gawakv7kl3/ACER  /home/fraser/Desktop" got this error "This link can't be used, because its target "/home/fraser/Desktop/smb:/acer-gawakv7kl3/ACER" doesn't exist."
[01:03] <stdin> daurnimator: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule
[01:03] <Downsay[Linux] > dooglus_, ssl?
[01:03] <dooglus_> Downsay[Linux] : secure socket layer
[01:03] <Downsay[Linux] > dooglus_, so what do I type in there?
[01:03] <swiftnomad> rofl @  dooglay.

[01:04] <boontoo> can someone help me setting up a alternative wireless network authentication account? i have the source for it but im not sure if its compatible with ubuntu
[01:04] <dooglus_> Downsay[Linux] : in the settings, you have to specify the authentifcation type.  gmail requires encryption for both pop and smtp
[01:04] <jimmitastic> should the emacs folder I unpacked be in /usr/bin for me to compile?
[01:04] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: no
[01:04] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: .../bin/ is for binaries, not source code
[01:04] <Downsay> ok, so I need to clear the 995 and 587 that I changed for the pop and smtp and then change it to ssl?
[01:04] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: I unpack it into ~/programs/emacs/
[01:04] <Downsay> dooglus_, for secure connection that is?
[01:05] <daurnimator> gibbon :(
[01:05] <jimmitastic> but does it matter?
[01:05] <dooglus_> Downsay: don't you see a downdown menu for connection type?
[01:05] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: it doesn't matter, but why put non-binaries into a binary directory?
[01:05] <oliver_g> hi
[01:05] <jimmitastic> fair point, Im just trial and erroring to find out why i cant write output files
[01:06] <Downsay> dooglus_, I got that part figured out now...but now it says my gmail account isn't set to allow for a POP server
[01:06] <nacky> i m having a prob in mah ubuntu
[01:06] <oliver_g> anyone knows how to install mISDN under Feisty?
[01:06] <nacky> whenever i recover from hibernate it dont play ny sound
[01:06] <dooglus_> Downsay: use the webmail interface, go to settings then pop and forwarding and enable pop
[01:06] <nacky> any one knw .... why is it sooo ?
[01:06] <nacky> No sound after recovering frm HIBERNATE mode
[01:06] <brownie17> hi, trying to make a symbolic link. typed this in " ln -s smb://acer-gawakv7kl3/ACER  /home/fraser/Desktop" got this error "This link can't be used, because its target "/home/fraser/Desktop/smb:/acer-gawakv7kl3/ACER" doesn't exist."
[01:06] <boontoo> anyone =(?
[01:06] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: I don't know if you've stated your problem or not, but if you did I missed it.  what's the problem?
[01:07] <Downsay> dooglus_, got it, now to test it one last time
[01:07] <Downsay> dooglus_, working wonderfully now for receiving my mail
[01:07] <dooglus_> Downsay: cool.  sending is much the same, too
[01:07] <nacky> dooglus: no sound after Hibernate mode
[01:08] <nacky> Anyone ... can tell me ? why is it so Why there is no sound after recovering frm HIbernate mode
[01:08] <dooglus_> nacky: you think you've got problems?  my touchpad dies when I unplug the mains cable...
[01:08] <Downsay> dooglus_, can I use thunderbird as my browser as well?  I had read somewhere that could be done?  and thanks for all the help so far!
[01:08] <nacky> dooglus : it might b a h/w prob
[01:08] <dooglus_> Downsay: I'd be surprised if you could.  thunderbird is a mail&news client
[01:08] <jimmitastic> dooglus:  I've just downloaded ubuntu...I'm trying to ./configure emacs and I get a "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" error.... I have gcc in /usr/bin
[01:08] <jimmitastic> and I am running it using sudo so Its not permissions
[01:09] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: you know you can install Emacs from a binary package, right?
[01:09] <nacky> dooglus : ?
[01:09] <forum2006> hey, i'm trying to disable keyring to ask for the master password, this works using http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?s=f5de5634f4448d733a599c23e4bb0257&p=2776815&postcount=1, but as soon as i enable auto-login keyring asks again :/
[01:09] <nacky> s'
[01:09] <dooglus_> nacky: I dual boot windows, and windows doesn't mind me unplugging the mains cable.  I think it's yet another ubuntu bug
[01:09] <nacky> dooglus : rite
[01:09] <jimmitastic> dooglus_: So I'm told, but the emacs website gives detailed instructions for obtaining it this way so I thought I'd give it a go
[01:09] <forum2006> this is really annoying
[01:10] <Downsay> dooglus_, http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-trunk/
[01:10] <nacky> dooglus : do u have any idea about dis bug "No sound after Hibernate "
[01:10] <jimmitastic> It just doesn't tell you what to do when things go wrong!
[01:10] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: the error you mention can be fixed by installing a package called "build-essential"
[01:10] <Downsay> dooglus_, that is the new thunderbird 3.0 download available...how do I install that?
[01:10] <nacky> dooglus : which laptop u using ?
[01:10] <dooglus_> nacky: I don't, sorry.  I'm using an Asus W1J I think
[01:10] <nacky> Gotta A problem related To HIBERNATE MODE
[01:10] <dooglus_> Downsay: I don't know, sorry. I never got on with Thunderbird - it's too buggy and not really maintained much.
[01:11] <nacky> NO sound after HIBERNATE MODE
[01:11] <nacky> anyone no its solution
[01:11] <dooglus_> Downsay: I clicked 'reply' once to reply to an email and thunderbird locked up for 2.5 weeks generating the reply window.
[01:11] <sebrock> nacky, known issue
[01:11] <dooglus_> Downsay: turns out it was busily quoting every line of a huge attachment in the reply!
[01:12] <nacky> sebrock : do u its remedy
[01:12] <swiftnomad> I cannot find: .kde/apps/ksplash/Themes/
[01:12] <nacky> sebrock : ny way to get sound after hibernate
[01:12] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: does that fix it?
[01:12] <nacky> sibernate : HUh ?
[01:12] <sebrock> nacky, try reloading your alsa modules, it did not work for me... maybe it does for you
[01:13] <sebrock> have to go now, bye
[01:13] <nacky> sebrock : i did
[01:13] <finalbeta> Thunderbird is not maintained much?!?
[01:13] <nacky> sebrock : no motion
[01:13] <Frogzoo> nacky: which version - feisty?
[01:13] <nacky> seb rock : bbye
[01:13] <jimmitastic> dooglus_: its not in synaptics, so I assume I have to download it too......seems odd they wouldnt include something fairly important to development in a linux distro though....
[01:13] <nacky> Frogzoo : 7.04
[01:13] <Downsay> dooglus_, I've heard thunderbird is basically the best out there?
[01:13] <Downsay> finalbeta, are you familiar with thunderbird?
[01:13] <finalbeta> Downsay: yes
[01:14] <Frogzoo> nacky: doubt there's an easy fix - cross your fingers for a driver update
[01:14] <nacky> Frogzoo : its like whenver i come out of hibernate it works fine bt no sound and mah laptop indicator light turns orange ( normally its green )
[01:14] <nacky> Frogzoo : i did dat brother bt it din work
[01:14] <Downsay> finalbeta, have you tried thunderbird 3.0 yet?  I've heard you can browse the net with it just as firefox?
[01:14] <finalbeta> Downsay: mozilla moved it away, that doesn't mean it's not maintained.
[01:14] <finalbeta> I haven't used the 3.0
[01:14] <nacky> frogzoo : i think if u can tell me any file name which is sound fr sound driver
[01:14] <nacky> frogzoo : it might help me
[01:15] <dooglus_> nacky: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/25896 - it's been known about for nearly 2 years
[01:15] <nacky> Anyone kno FIX of SOUND proble comes after HIBERNATE MODE
[01:15] <Downsay> finalbeta, is there a way it can be used as your browser as well that you've experienced?
[01:15] <finalbeta> Downsay: no...
[01:15] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: it is in synaptic - I may have spelt it wrong though
[01:15] <brownie17> nacky, googled it?

[01:16] <nacky> brownie: din help
[01:16] <dooglus_> jimmitastic: it's in synaptic - see what ubotu just said
[01:16] <Frogzoo> nacky: lsmod |grep snd
[01:16] <nacky> brownie  : it is said dese bugs had been registerd ...
[01:16] <Downsay> finalbeta, is a POP server supposed to be more secure?  what are the perks to using tbird?
[01:16] <nacky> Frogzoo : dis file is used for sound ?
[01:16] <brownie17> nacky, meaning there's no fix currently.
[01:16] <nacky> brownie : rite said brother
[01:16] <forum2006> as soon as i enable auto-login again keyring aks again for the master password. i'm using feisty :(
[01:17] <nacky> brownie : but it might b fix may b available wid peeps
[01:17] <nacky> brownie : its not officially out
[01:17] <RedMercury> can anyone recommend a good backup package for ubuntu server?
[01:17] <brownie17> nacky, a) use a different kernel b) wait for update c) get over it. you can always just not hibernate
[01:17] <finalbeta> Downsay: I find it more practical then evolution, that's all. no perks.. I used it in windows, now I use it in linux
[01:17] <nacky> brownie : somtimes it is necessary to use Hibernate
[01:18] <nacky> brownie : nevermind thnx
[01:18] <brownie17> what does 'packages can't be verified' mean in the long run?
[01:18] <Downsay> finalbeta, did you recently make the switch from windows to linux?
[01:18] <nacky> forgzoo : lsmod | grep snd for sound ?
[01:18] <Downsay> finalbeta, I've never used a client like this before...figured I'd try it out
[01:18] <finalbeta> Downsay: about a year ago.
[01:18] <swiftnomad> question: if I install compiz I can use it to change themes?
[01:18] <dooglus_> brownie17: it means that when the ubuntu servers get hacked again, the hackers can replace the packages with trojaned packages and you'll not notice
[01:19] <jimmitastic> dooglus_/ubotu I don't see it!it goes bug-buddy to busybox-intramfs
[01:19] <swiftnomad> because Im really having a problems with that
[01:19] <finalbeta> I like the way thunderbird has a show images button, it's safe that way
[01:19] <dooglus_> brownie17: official ubuntu packages are signed with a public key.  that warning is saying that your computer doesn't recognise the key
[01:19] <brownie17> dooglus_, how often do they get hacked?
[01:19] <boontoo> would this work on ubuntu http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/support/pub:rmit-wpa
[01:19] <Downsay> finalbeta, how are you finding the switch?  Are you used to everything in Linux now?  I just made the switch 4 days ago and I have so much to learn...want to learn all about Wine and the capabilities within Linux itself
[01:19] <dooglus_> brownie17: I think the last attack only completely owned 7 of the 12
[01:19] <brownie17> dooglus_, is this a serious problem?
[01:19] <nacky> PROBLEM : No sound after hibernate mode
[01:19] <dooglus_> brownie17: just install the correct keys and it will go away
[01:19] <forum2006> too bad, that no one know how to fix this :/
[01:20] <faileas> all of which were community,servers NOT canonical run servers, and had bad security practices
[01:20] <nacky> PROBLEM : While booting up it ask me to run " fsck "
[01:20] <nacky> ny1 dereeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[01:20] <faileas> nacky: then fsck it ;)
[01:20] <nacky> faileas : I do "fsck -y " it checks for error and fix it up ... is it safe ?
[01:20] <swiftnomad> than run it
[01:21] <swiftnomad> yes
[01:21] <finalbeta> Downsay: for me linux is better in some way, worse in many other ways. I'm a windows admin at work, this is more a hobby OS for me. For my hardware it's lacking, but for home usage it does what I need it to do.
[01:21] <faileas> yeah
[01:21] <brownie17> dooglus_, how do i do this?
[01:21] <dooglus_> brownie17: I'm not entirely sure.  it should already be fixed.  or are you using non-standard repositories?
[01:21] <Downsay> finalbeta, ahh, makes sense:)
[01:22] <finalbeta> Downsay: the best thing about linux is that you see it improving. hope keeps me on it.
[01:22] <dooglus_> nacky: fsck can cause further damage.  it's best to make a backup first
[01:22] <swiftnomad> does compiz fusion have alot of bugs??
[01:22] <nacky> dooglus : mah system ask me to run fsck , it mean mah HDD is in ERROR STATE ?
[01:22] <lovetysx> what does "fsck" mean ?
[01:22] <brownie17> dooglus_, probably non-standard. it doesn't matter. i don't really care if i get trojaned.
[01:22] <nacky> dooglus : Is dere HDD problem ?
[01:23] <sorush20> !hd
[01:23] <finalbeta> swiftnomad: no it's alright, but the things compiz depends on are not ready.
[01:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:23] <finalbeta> the xserver, the drivers.
[01:23] <nacky> dooglus : After every 4 times it showz dis force checkin of filesystem is needed
[01:23] <kaveh> hi
[01:23] <sorush20> hi I can't hear the sound of hd trailers
[01:23] <dooglus_> nacky: I don't know.  could be a regular routine check, or maybe it found a problem.  if you run fsck without -y then it will safely check the disk and tell you about errors without trying to fix them or making them worse
[01:23] <swiftnomad> so should I wait to install it?
[01:24] <nacky> dooglus : in real fsck wid out -y will take time and attention
[01:24] <kaveh> any one can help me with wireless ?
[01:24] <nacky> dooglus : fsck -y checks error and fix them up
[01:24] <lovetysx> hi
[01:24] <nivek> kaveh, whats the problem?
[01:24] <finalbeta> swiftnomad: compiz is troublesome when playing video, games, tv cards... everything that does something special with the screen
[01:24] <nacky> dooglus : if i will do no to fix it will stop
[01:24] <lovetysx> grubby:hi
[01:24] <towlie_> ive got a problem i downloaded php code that creates a form with a textform where you paste csv code and it turns it into sql insert into code. the problem im having is say i paste 5 lines. i outputted the number of lines and it reports back almost double. how do i parse it correctly
[01:24] <nacky> nivek : I also got a problem related to SOUND
[01:24] <kaveh> nivek, i can not connect wireless o internet
[01:24] <finalbeta> swiftnomad: should, no, if you want to... it's a nice toy...
[01:24] <nacky> nivek : it is like after hibernate i dont get sound
[01:24] <dooglus_> nacky: fsck without -y will only stop if there's a problem
[01:25] <swiftnomad> but I have dual screens!
[01:25] <swiftnomad> =X
[01:25] <nacky> dooglus : fsck without -y stop if i will do [fix error (y or n): n ] 
[01:25] <nivek> kaveh, could you be a little more specific. Are you getting any errors?
[01:25] <lovetysx> 'ex
[01:26] <nacky> nivek , problem wid sound (Can u help me ? )
[01:26] <finalbeta> swiftnomad: ask in #desktop-effects , I think compiz supports that just fine now.
[01:26] <swiftnomad> ok. sweet

[01:28] <nivek> kaveh, pm
[01:28] <dooglus> jimmitastic: did you mess about with your sources.list?
[01:29] <jimmitastic> not intentionally!
[01:29] <LostOblivion> I'm trying to install my sI'm trying to install a resolution, but it keeps popping back to default...
[01:29] <jimmitastic> i looked in /usr/bin theres nothing in ther eeither

[01:30] <nacky> nivek , its like i dont knw why ... it happn i tried google n mny more things but no answers yet
[01:30] <Frogzoo> paritosh: /etc/rc2.d/*
[01:30] <jimmitastic> dooglus_: no i mean theres nothign to do with build-essentials in there!
[01:31] <dooglus> LostOblivion: it installs a few build tools - the compiler, etc
[01:31] <jimmitastic> jim@jim-laptop:~/emacs-22.1$ grep 'feisty *main' /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:31] <jimmitastic> deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted
[01:31] <jimmitastic> deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted
[01:31] <Frogzoo> LostOblivion: source building tools
[01:31] <dooglus> jimmitastic: that's to be expected
[01:31] <LostOblivion> Ok
[01:31] <LostOblivion> I'm new to Unix...
[01:31] <nivek> nacky, thats strange. I have no idea but i will look into it.
[01:31] <LostOblivion> =)
[01:31] <dooglus> jimmitastic: did you "sudo apt-get update" recently?  if not, try it, then try the "sudo apt-get install build-essential" again
[01:31] <LostOblivion> I use nv
[01:31] <LostOblivion> Ehh
[01:31] <LostOblivion> Why do my sentances always get cut up...
[01:32] <nacky> nivek,will wait
[01:32] <kaveh> nivek, i think i need to register
[01:32] <nacky> nivek, can u tell me wat are files used by OS for loading sound drivers ?
[01:32] <nacky> nivek , sound filess
[01:32] <kaveh> nivek, may i /j #nivek?
[01:32] <nivek> i have no idea
[01:32] <nivek> I dont even have speakers on this desktop
[01:33] <nivek> so i had no need for playing around with sound
[01:33] <tarek_> checking for _NSGetEnviron... no
[01:33] <tarek_> how can i change that?
[01:33] <nivek> kaveh, sure
[01:33] <patricia> bonjour
[01:33] <brownie17> does anyone know if it's possible to make a shortcut to a network drive?
[01:33] <LostOblivion> How do I install a graphics driver anyone??? ***
[01:34] <kaveh> nivek, i am at #nivek
[01:34] <tarek_> LostOblivion: what card do u have?
[01:34] <Prestidigita> hello, my usb speakers doesn't work with ubuntu. Does anyone know why ?
[01:34] <LostOblivion> 8800 GTX
[01:34] <tarek_> run synaptic and search for nvidia
[01:35] <Prestidigita> anyone
[01:35] <Prestidigita> ?
[01:35] <LostOblivion> I tried installing the nvidia program, but when I set the options I want (1280x1024x75 Hz), they always revert back to 1024x768 when I reboot and after I log in...
[01:36] <eric_> salut
[01:36] <tarek_> LostOblivion
[01:36] <LostOblivion> Yes?
[01:36] <anandanbu> I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 with Windows XP and i need install LinuxMint 3.0 either by deleting the windows partition or installing it in the 15Gb free space please give your suggestions for the installation
[01:36] <eric_> yes
[01:36] <jimmitastic> dooglus_: it appears to be working, out of interest why wasnt it on the distro? to make it fit on a CD?
[01:36] <tarek_> LostOblivion: open a console and enter sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:37] <eric_> ?????????
[01:37] <tarek_> LostOblivion: u know how to use the console?
[01:37] <nivek> anadanbu, install it on the 15GB free space, rewrite grub on the mbr and make sure your windows OS and Ubuntu are added to the config
[01:37] <dooglus> jimmitastic: I think because ubuntu is for end users.  the idea is that everything is available in binary form, so compilers and the like aren't needed
[01:37] <eric_> qui parle franais
[01:37] <LostOblivion> done
[01:37] <eric_> done ????
[01:37] <LostOblivion> yes
[01:38] <LostOblivion> Tarek: YEs
[01:38] <Arafangion> just install build-essential, all the developers used to debian know that.
[01:38] <tarek_> LostOblivion: ok now use your arrow keys to scroll down where you can see your resolutions
[01:38] <LostOblivion> Ok
[01:38] <eric_> qui parle francais
[01:38] <LostOblivion> I'm using irc in terminal ^
[01:38] <dooglus> jimmitastic: if all you want is an up-to-date version of GNU Emacs, I have a .deb of the current CVS code
[01:38] <DrHalan> whats the easiest way to get stuff from my pc to my linux machine?
[01:39] <LostOblivion> Section "Screen"

[01:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pasre - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:39] <Seveas> !paste | LostOblivion
[01:39] <ubotu> LostOblivion: 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)
[01:39] <DrHalan> tarek_, driverwise? i mean my music etc
[01:40] <LostOblivion> Ok Sorry
[01:40] <dooglus> DrHalan: if it's a lot of stuff, I'd move the HDD physically from one machine to the other.  if it's less, burn a DVD or CD.  if it's less still, use a thumbdrive.  or if you can be bothered, set up networking
[01:40] <jimmitastic> dooglus: cheers, to be honest I am doing this partly just to learn how to download unzip use vi/emacs and generally get to grips with the system before I start my uni course in october,
[01:40] <jimmitastic> its more to understand what's going on than specifically to have emacs
[01:40] <dooglus> jimmitastic: sure
[01:40] <jimmitastic> plus i dont even know what a .deb file is!
[01:41] <jimmitastic> i use VMS at the mo
[01:41] <dooglus> jimmitastic: are you wanting to learn about debian/ubuntu in particular?  or just "building stuff" in general?
[01:41] <tarek_> LostOblivion: ok now you should  add the resolutions. from the biggest to the smallest. if it doesnt work, this means that you should change the color deph
[01:41] <LostOblivion> Ok, you may find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34292/
[01:41] <kagemaro> Can someone please explain Beryl to me?
[01:42] <jimmitastic> right now building stuff, and learning my way around a unix system, and also vi annoys me so i do want emacs!
[01:42] <LostOblivion> Is that the only file controlling resolutions when the system starts?
[01:42] <dooglus> kagemaro: it's a way of making your windows wobble when you move them, at the expense of performance and stability./
[01:42] <tarek_> LostOblivions: yes
[01:42] <kagemaro> dooglus - Great, how do I get it to work? :D
[01:42] <dooglus> jimmitastic: I would suggest just installing the binary emacs package.  you won't learn anything much by building Emacs from source
[01:42] <LostOblivion> Ok
[01:43] <Downsay> can someone teach me about mounting/unmounting a drive?
[01:43] <dooglus> kagemaro: there's a channel for that.  #ubuntu-effects I think?
[01:43] <kauer> brownie17: Once you have the network drive open, click on "Places" and drag/drop the drive name to your desktop.
[01:43] <LostOblivion> Any ideas?
[01:43] <dooglus> Downsay: you need to make a directory to mount it onto, then "mount /your/directory /dev/device"
[01:44] <jimmitastic> I'll see how annoyed I get with it this way, and more importantly how annoyed you all get with silly questions!
[01:44] <dooglus> Downsay: except I got the 2 arguments the wrong way around, sorry
[01:44] <Downsay> dooglus, I'm more newb than that, lol...for example if I just plugin my external hd, can I access everything?
[01:44] <BFC>  hi, I am trying to setup an NFS network between two linux computers. I was wondering where I found out what my server name and domain of my box?
[01:44] <dooglus> Downsay: that's what should happen, yes
[01:44] <Padawanker> hello. anyone with the experience 'bout the "Buffer I/0 error on device fd0; logical block 0" error which occurs due installation of the 7.04 Feisty?
[01:45] <Downsay> dooglus, it shows my last date modified on any of my files back in 2005...which isn't the case, I did yesterday, just in windows
[01:45] <anandanbu> I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 with Windows XP and i need install LinuxMint 3.0 will it affect the ubuntu GRUB or other apps
[01:45] <kraut> moin
[01:45] <jimmitastic> dooglus: for example I've worked out you need this build-essentials package for development which I wouldnt have known otherwise
[01:45] <dooglus> Downsay: do you have more than one partition on the drive?  (like E:, F:, G: in Windows)
[01:46] <dooglus> jimmitastic: build-essential is really an empty package - it doesn't contain anything useful at all - but it depends on a bunch of other packages.
[01:46] <MrCollins-idle> cya
[01:46] <LostOblivion> How the heck can I join irc from GAIM?
[01:46] <Downsay> in Windows? I've never partitioned anything on my external hd
[01:46] <dooglus> jimmitastic: so it truth, you don't need build-essential at all - you could have installed its dependencies one-by-one instead
[01:46] <dooglus> LostOblivion: add a new account in gaim, type "IRC"
[01:47] <LostOblivion> Ok
[01:47] <tarek_> LostOblivion: what program are u using?
[01:47] <dooglus> Downsay: so the whole drive shows up as a since drive in Windows?
[01:47] <jimmitastic> dooglus: but then I REALLY would have got annoyed!
[01:47] <dooglus> tarek_: he's using gaim
[01:48] <tarek_> dooglus: ok
[01:48] <Downsay> dooglus, yes
[01:48] <dooglus> jimmitastic: if you run this:  "apt-cache show build-essential | grep Depends"  you'll see the list of things that build-essential depends on.  that's all it does
[01:48] <Padawanker> hello. anyone with the experience 'bout the "Buffer I/0 error on device fd0; logical block 0" error which occurs due installation of the 7.04 Feisty? i've googled & asked around, but there has been no help in any topics / answers
[01:48] <Seveas> dooglus, apt-cache depends build-essential
[01:48] <Seveas> ;)
[01:48] <LostOblivion> Tarek: Currently just using ircii in Term
[01:49] <LostOblivion> Very frustrating...
[01:49] <dooglus> Seveas: I find 'show' gives a little more information
[01:49] <Seveas> dooglus, not if you grep for Depends ;)
[01:49] <dooglus> Seveas: it does for me
[01:50] <dooglus> Seveas: version numbers, for instance
[01:50] <spanglesontoast> anyone know how to fix this  Unable to load GTK2 Python bindings: No module named gtk
[01:50] <Seveas> ah, true
[01:50] <jimmitastic> who on earth decided that shift ctr and v was better than ctr v in the terminal to paste? Im on a bloody laptop here!
[01:50] <LostOblivion> It is?
[01:50] <fyrestrtr> spanglesontoast: try installing python-gtk2
[01:50] <dooglus> jimmitastic: the problem is that some programs use control-v to do something
[01:50] <Seveas> jimmitastic, the person who realised that ctrl-C is also the shortcut to killing the current program
[01:50] <delire> apt-cache search python gtk, then install the package that looks closest to the match.
[01:51] <LostOblivion> sooo
[01:51] <dooglus> jimmitastic: suppose you're running Emacs inside a terminal.  control-v is used by Emacs to scroll down.  if the terminal stole all control-v keypresses, Emacs wouldn't see them
[01:51] <LostOblivion> Anyone got any idea as to how I'm going to solve my little resolution problem? =S=S=S=S=S
[01:51] <spanglesontoast> it's already installed
[01:51] <spanglesontoast> could it be something I've messed up in the bashrc ?
[01:51] <Downsay> dooglus, so is there something I need to change on my external if I want to access everything?  for example...I want to add all my music from my external hd to rhythmbox
[01:51] <troy> :] 
[01:51] <dooglus> jimmitastic: you can change the keybindings for any GTK program to whatever you like, anyway
[01:52] <Zylogue> DAMN!
[01:52] <dooglus> Downsay: I've no idea why you're not seeing the changes you made yesterday.
[01:52] <troy> helloo
[01:52] <troy> :d
[01:52] <Padawanker> hello. anyone with the experience 'bout the "Buffer I/0 error on device fd0; logical block 0" error which occurs due installation of the 7.04 Feisty? i've googled & asked around, but there has been no help in any topics / answers.
[01:52] <dooglus> Downsay: you should be able to see everything already
[01:52] <Zylogue> I installed Fiesty to a USB HDD, grub went to the internal drive of the laptop and the ubuntu installed hdd will not boot, either.
[01:52] <Zylogue> Error 21 on grub.
[01:53] <dooglus> Padawanker: 'fd0' is a floppy disk drive?
[01:53] <Zylogue> does anyone have a solution for htis issue?
[01:53] <delire> anyone here know the page of features that are confirmed for Gutsy? i notice that a few of the fun features have recently been pulled.
[01:53] <[-neo-] > hey, i got an apache server
[01:53] <delire> sorry "a page that lists the features"
[01:53] <dooglus> Zylogue: did it kill the laptop?
[01:53] <delire> Padawanker: try the ubuntu alternative ISO
[01:54] <Zylogue> dooglus, thedata is still there, I saw that with the ubuntu install CD.
[01:54] <troy> [-neo-] 
[01:54] <troy> :p
[01:54] <spanglesontoast> how do I reload the ld thingy
[01:54] <[-neo-] > i got port 80 open but only local network can see it, nobody else :S
[01:54] <recover> I just bought a 2GB microSD card. The disk properties window says its partition is FAT16, should I format it to FAT32?
[01:54] <Zylogue> dooglus, I think I just need to remove grub from (hd0)
[01:54] <rausb0> spanglesontoast: sudo ldconfig ?
[01:54] <spanglesontoast> that's the one
[01:55] <spanglesontoast> nope didn't work
[01:55] <delire> spanglesontoast: python doesn't use that linker. it loads modules from /usr/lib/python/site-packages
[01:56] <pwuertz> racker
[01:56] <spanglesontoast> then what could have changed if I installed 2.4 and I still have 2.5 installed
[01:56] <delire> spanglesontoast: your problem may relate to the version of Python the application is using.
[01:56] <spanglesontoast> could it be that the program doesn't know which one to use ?
[01:56] <delire> spanglesontoast: if the applicaiton uses python2.4 you'll need to install the gtk2 modules for python2.4
[01:57] <spanglesontoast> anyway of forcing it to use 2.5 ?
[01:57] <delire> spanglesontoast: if in doubt install the gtk modules for both.
[01:57] <delire> spanglesontoast: no, if the app is written specificially for 2.4, then it will use that.
[01:57] <spanglesontoast> ah
[01:57] <delire> spanglesontoast: apt-cache show <the application> will show you which python it depends on.
[01:58] <sketchi> hay
[01:58] <delire> (assumuing you've installed it as an Ubuntu package)
[01:58] <sketchi> Can anyone help me

[01:58] <delire> sketchi: who knows
[01:58] <sketchi> I just got a new hardrive..installed..e.g formatted
[01:58] <sketchi> how can i fully get the info off one hardrive onto the other

[01:59] <fiveiron> so?
[01:59] <sketchi> uhm..
[01:59] <sketchi> how
[01:59] <delire> sketchi: ensure it's mounted with 'mount' and then 'cp -a /disk1/ /mnt/something/
[01:59] <fiveiron> .... are you wanting to put the data from windows onto a another hdd, or "pull" the windows data onto a *nix disk?
[02:00] <sketchi> well...i just want everything from one hardrive..to get onto another
[02:00] <sketchi> including windows..and all my programms
[02:00] <fiveiron> sketchi, its not always that easy
[02:00] <sketchi> ok..then i want windows on it at first
[02:00] <jimmitastic> emacs: Cannot open termcap database file - so near yet so far
[02:00] <sketchi> thats my start point
[02:00] <fiveiron> sketchi, are you wanting to be able to boot from this hard drive?
[02:00] <sketchi> yes
[02:00] <sketchi> i dont have windows on it..so cant boot from it
[02:01] <fiveiron> sketchi, you can if you put linux on it
[02:01] <fiveiron> :-P
[02:01] <sketchi> if i put linux on it
[02:01] <McLovin> whats the best apache set for ubuntu-server?
[02:01] <sketchi> uhm i'd rather just try put windows on it
[02:01] <lnxmomo> hello, can someone help me with my toshiba a135-s2386. i have sound but sound comes out of the speakers and when i put my headphone jack in it comes out of both speakers AND headphones. please help
[02:01] <sketchi> putting linux then windows on it...sounds...messy
[02:01] <fiveiron> sketchi, then why the heck are you in the ubuntu chat room?
[02:02] <McLovin> wtf..put windows then linux
[02:02] <sketchi> becouse i usualy use ubuntu
[02:02] <sketchi> and the help here is good
[02:02] <sketchi> :)
[02:02] <fiveiron> sketchi, you need a disk imager like norton ghost, or an open source equivalent
[02:02] <sketchi> to do what
[02:03] <fiveiron> ....
[02:03] <delire> sketchi: i haven't had a Windows install in around 6 years. i don't know how to help you here. it's a Windows question.
[02:03] <fiveiron> to make a bootable image of the disk that you can put on the new hdd
[02:03] <sketchi> oh
[02:03] <sketchi> would it be that easy ?
[02:03] <sketchi> just take the image..save it to the new hardrive
[02:03] <sketchi> and thats it ?
[02:03] <fiveiron> sketchi, considering the questions you're asking, i'm guessing it wont be that easy for you
[02:03] <sketchi> :(
[02:04] <fiveiron> just fyi
[02:04] <fiveiron> sketchi, http://freshmeat.net/projects/g4l/
[02:04] <fiveiron> good luck
[02:04] <maxinator> im new here, can i just ask my question or shall i wait until sketchis problem is solved?
[02:04] <fiveiron> maxinator, whats up?
[02:04] <jimmitastic> Installed emacs (finally) and am trying to run it, I get this error: "emacs: Cannot open termcap database file" I tried  "sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev" as recommended by a forum but it still falls over
[02:05] <McLovin> this is a dumb question but i have never used apt-get until now how do i get ubuntu-server to use the web for apt-get?
[02:05] <rausb0> McLovin: web for apt-get? what do you mean?
[02:05] <maxinator> when i'm triy to afdjust the volume with the volume p and the volume down key on my keyboard the cd-volume will adjusted, but i want to adjust the pcm-volume with that keys
[02:05] <fiveiron> McLovin, apt-get will automagically try to fetch the pacakge from the online repos
[02:05] <TtyS2> McLovin: its to be used in terminal
[02:06] <wdh> sketchi, i didn't read back the whole story.. but if i understand correctly, you are trying to take all the data from one harddrive to another drive.. the easiest way to do that on linux is using 'dd'
[02:06] <McLovin> fiveiron well i cant get bitchx to install on my rack box
[02:06] <McLovin> TtyS2 no shit lol
[02:06] <delire> McLovin: perhaps you need to disable the CD repositories using System -> Administration -> Software Sources ?
[02:06] <fiveiron> maxinator, you can adjust what your volume keys do in the "System -> Keyboard" dialog
[02:06] <McLovin> delire its on an installation with no X
[02:06] <delire> McLovin: apt should look to the online repos if they are defined though.
[02:06] <fiveiron> McLovin, try using irssi.... its much better (but similar in look and feel)
[02:06] <wdh> sketchi, dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb, this will copy the whole partition structure as well.. probably you want to resize the partition after that..
[02:07] <McLovin> delire its ubuntu-server
[02:07] <delire> McLovin: that's fine, just edit /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install bitchx
[02:07] <wdh> sketchi, i don't think it can be done from windows, but you can always use a live-cd
[02:07] <McLovin> oh ok thats where its at
[02:07] <McLovin> ok ill check that thanks delire
[02:07] <sketchi> yep
[02:07] <sketchi> windows = old
[02:07] <sketchi> windows = meh
[02:07] <rausb0> !source-o-matic> rausb0
[02:07] <sketchi> they just make stuff harder than it realy is
[02:07] <EvaLuaTe> how to install nvidia driver ?
[02:07] <rausb0> !source-o-matic> McLovin
[02:07] <fiveiron> wdh, he isn't wanting to just copy data... he wants a bootable drive
[02:08] <McLovin> :o
[02:08] <delire> EvaLuaTe: System->Administration->Restricted Driver Manager
[02:08] <fiveiron> he needs to ghost the volume
[02:08] <sketchi> iam downloading nortan 12. ghost
[02:08] <wdh> fiveiron, 'dd' does do exactly that
[02:09] <rausb0> wdh: dd cannot handle partition size changes
[02:09] <delire> yeah dd if/of will do the trick.
[02:09] <delire> that's true, yes.
[02:09] <EvaLuaTe> ok, and how to make the internet connection auto-start at startup ?
[02:09] <EvaLuaTe> i mean, auto-connect
[02:09] <wdh> rausb0, true.. i would use 'dd' and after that resize the partition
[02:09] <fiveiron> EvaLuaTe, what type of connection?  dial-up?  wireless?
[02:09] <EvaLuaTe> cable modem
[02:10] <fiveiron> EvaLuaTe, as long as your interface is set to DHCP, then it should automatically set up the connection
[02:10] <sketchi> using symtecks ghost
[02:11] <fiveiron> sketchi, symantec
[02:11] <sketchi> can i picvk which hard disk is copied and which it is then put onto
[02:11] <fiveiron> sketchi, use ghost 4 linux
[02:11] <EvaLuaTe> well, it sets the connection automatically, it just doesn't auto-connect at startup
[02:11] <EvaLuaTe> i still have to click connect
[02:11] <fiveiron> EvaLuaTe, .... where?
[02:11] <sketchi> i already got symantecs ghost 12 hehehe

[02:12] <rausb0> fiveiron: btw, do cable modems always have built-in dhcp servers? i don't know anything about cable modems, here in germany they are very uncommon.
[02:12] <dooglus> Zylogue: which OS is on the hdd?  Windows and/or Ubuntu, or what?
[02:13] <Zylogue> dooglus, I got it, already.  Used SuperGrub to get it fixed.  easy.  Thanks for the follow-up, though.
[02:13] <fiveiron> rausb0, .....  sarcasm noted ....   the modem doesn't... but the ISP does.
[02:13] <EvaLuaTe> the configuration isn't a problem, the connection works, the only problem is i have to click connect every time the system starts and i would like it to auto-connect on startup, that's all
[02:13] <spanglesontoast> anyone know how to uninstall a compiled source ?
[02:13] <sketchi> fiveiron......if i remove my old hardrive after takign a system image..it will work ?
[02:13] <fiveiron> sketchi, you should rtfm..... then ask questiosn
[02:13] <fiveiron> questions
[02:14] <fiveiron> i'm not your personal library, nor is anyone else in here
[02:14] <ompaul> spanglesontoast, it is not easy, you need to remove the binary
[02:14] <rausb0> fiveiron: it wasn't sarcasm. i really didn't know. so a cable modem forwards the dhcp request to the provider and doesn't really do any type of dialup or authentication like pppoe?
[02:14] <dooglus> Zylogue: what's supergrub?
[02:14] <dooglus> Zylogue: http://www.supergrub.com/ ?
[02:14] <spanglesontoast> well my python is set to 2.4 and I want it set to 2.5
[02:14] <spanglesontoast> in the path if you get me
[02:14] <EvaLuaTe> so, could anyone help please ? i'm new to linux and this goes beyond me ...
[02:15] <fiveiron> rausb0, oh, rofl, well then...  yeah the cable modem is essentially like a very high-speed analog modem (only its digital) ... just allows fast communication between the users PC and the ISP's server
[02:15] <ompaul> spanglesontoast, you have to go back several steps if you want to do that kind of thing I'll have the bot message you
[02:15] <rausb0> fiveiron: but it is not a dsl modem?
[02:15] <fiveiron> rausb0, no.... similar in concept, but different in method
[02:15] <ompaul> spanglesontoast, you need to work from tha
[02:16] <wdh> sketchi, there is plenty of room for failure.. just try it. if it doesnt work, put the old harddrive back in.. dd if=/dev/oldhdd of=/dev/newhdd makes a copy of _all_ the data on the first harddrive.. and, assuming the new drive is bigger than the old one, after this you can resize the original partitions..
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> fiveiron: RTFM is not an appropiate response to questions in this channel
[02:16] <fiveiron> rausb0, the cable modem transfers data over a single copper line.... the bandwidth is shared for a given geographical region
[02:16] <rausb0> fiveiron: and the modem does not act as as nat router, so the dhcp address given is a public address?
[02:16] <stdin> !rtfm
[02:16] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:17] <spanglesontoast> doesn't say much about uninstalling
[02:17] <fiveiron> rausb0, yes... which is why its a good idea to have a nat router in between you and the world
[02:17] <ompaul> spanglesontoast, if you compile it right yiou can do sudo apt-get remove p[ackage
[02:17] <Zylogue> dooglus, http://sgd.howto-linux.de/download/
[02:17] <rausb0> fiveiron: alright. thanks!
[02:18] <nenina> excuse me, guys, a stupid but important question: what's the trash's path??
[02:18] <dooglus> Zylogue: oh, right.  that's what I would have eventually recommended to you, once I had found it.  :)  That's what I used last time I messed up my MBR, too.
[02:18] <spanglesontoast> but surely that's not an option now cos that would just overwrite and wouldn't aid me would it ?
[02:18] <dooglus> nenina: ~/.Trash
[02:18] <Zylogue> dooglus, hehehe.  cool...
[02:18] <Gary> nenina, in your user area, called .trash
[02:18] <nenina> ;) thanks dooglus
[02:18] <dooglus> Gary: .Trash, not .trash
[02:19] <ben_> aMSN is started and running (I've set it o every time I log on), but the icon hasn't appeared in the system tray. How can I either a) reload the system tray to try and get it to appear, or b) find the process to terminate and restart it?
[02:20] <wdh> ben_, 'killall -HUP amsn'
[02:20] <ben_> amsn: no process killed
[02:20] <wdh> ben_, if that isn't the correct processname, you can try and find it using 'ps -u yourusername'
[02:21] <nenina> ^^ found, thx dooglus and also Gary :)
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> TO make a copy of your MBR run this command...  dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr.backup bs=512 count=1    Use 462 if you want the MBR without the partition info
[02:21] <Zylogue> dooglus, it has  been  WAY too long since I tried this next attempt...what is  a good reliable free toolfor resizing a windows NTFSpartition
[02:21] <ben_> wdh: that's the problem I have. I can't find which process is amsn's
[02:22] <wdh> ben_, use 'xkill
[02:22] <jimmitastic> OK I am recomiling and installing emacs, since I believe I should hav ehad  ibncurses5-dev setup first. Should I manually get rid off emacs or will the installation sort that out for me?
[02:22] <wdh> ben_, execute 'xkill' and point at AMSN :)
[02:22] <jimmitastic> *have had *rid of
[02:22] <zs6jc1> hi, can i pls have some advise on which linux to use for a 486 laptop with no cd-rom?
[02:22] <ben_> once I've found amsn's process, or do I not need to with xkill?
[02:22] <rausb0> wdh: when killing aMSN with xkill, it should be named xbill :)
[02:22] <jimmitastic> *recompliling, sorry, that post was minging
[02:23] <rausb0> ben_: if you know the process id of amsn, you can also kill it on the console with: kill PID
[02:23] <wdh> ben_, for xkill you don't have to know what process it is.. just click on it's window
[02:23] <Frogzoo> jimmitastic: there's a repo for GNU Emacs 23.0.0.1

[02:33] <dooglus> seth457: you should find it in synaptic
[02:34] <Zylogue> s/viorvims/vi or vim
[02:34] <meme_> Adnan_: initramfs is'nt a program, instead a directive
[02:34] <steven_> hi
[02:34] <rausb0> Adnan_: initramfs is a minimal set of tools just for finding and mounting the root filesystem
[02:34] <seth457> synaptic?

[02:34] <jimmitastic> can't say I understand 100% what I did but...
[02:35] <kagemaro> Hey everyone, I'm on a laptop machine and I only have one complaint - the power saving options in my Core 2 Duo don't seem to be usable on Linux (or not by default) and I can't change the brightness - this results in a sub-90 minute battery life on a machine that lasts 3 hours on Windows - any ideas?
[02:35] <rausb0> Adnan_: if grub would be the problem, you wouldn't get this far
[02:35] <GNine> should the bios option plug and play OS be disabled for linux/ubuntu?
[02:35] <rausb0> Adnan_: i guess it is a problem with the hard disk configuration of vmware. did you change anything after installing ubuntu on it?
[02:35] <Adnan_> means no solution? i installed UBuntu 7 smoothly, it got crashed when I updated the distro and rebooted it
[02:36] <Adnan_> rausb0: nope
[02:36] <Adnan_> i just upgraded it with upgrade manager
[02:36] <pep> hello i need help for totem display media
[02:36] <rausb0> Adnan_: can you describe "it got crashed" more detailed?
[02:36] <kagemaro> Hey everyone, I'm on a laptop machine and I only have one complaint - the power saving options in my Core 2 Duo don't seem to be usable on Linux (or not by default) and I can't change the brightness - this results in a sub-90 minute battery life on a machine that lasts 3 hours on Windows - any ideas?
[02:36] <Frogzoo> kagemaro: we can read
[02:36] <AlexUbuntuBcn> hi
[02:37] <Adnan_> rausb0: I pasted a link above where I mentioned the errror message I got
[02:37] <Adnan_> should I paste in your private?
[02:37] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I found the answer to my question:  the synaptic settings in xorg.conf are overridden by the settings in the gconf 'registry' thingy
[02:37] <dooglus> Frogzoo: specifically in /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad
[02:37] <rausb0> Adnan_: okay, let me read. could take a while...
[02:37] <vladuz976> anybody know how to save gimp files as pdf?
[02:37] <vladuz976> I made product catalogs in gimp and inkscape, need to save as pdf
[02:38] <Adnan_> ok
[02:38] <novato_br> hi good morning
[02:38] <kagemaro> Hey everyone, I'm on a laptop machine and I only have one complaint - the power saving options in my Core 2 Duo don't seem to be usable on Linux (or not by default) and I can't change the brightness - this results in a sub-90 minute battery life on a machine that lasts 3 hours on Windows - any ideas?
[02:38] <Zylogue> vladuz976, I don't knowif this is the best way,but you could opendocsin OOo and save as .pdf
[02:38] <Frogzoo> dooglus: :p
[02:38] <novato_br> somebody knows some reminder software?
[02:38] <dooglus> Frogzoo: just thought you might like to know, so next time someone asks you get it right :)
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: Where did you find that info... on xorg
[02:39] <vladuz976> Zylogue, thanks, I'll see if that works
[02:39] <Prestidigita> can anyone please help me out setting up usb speakers
[02:39] <Frogzoo> dooglus: that :p wasn't at you
[02:39] <rausb0> Adnan_: from what i can see, you don't have ubuntu 7.04, but ubuntu 6.10.
[02:39] <wdh> Zylogue, you can export to *.ps, there are plenty of tools to convert ps to pdf..
[02:39] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: no, I did a "find ~ -mmins 5" to find files that had been modified recently, and "./.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/%gconf.xml" showed up
[02:39] <Zylogue> kagemaro, we know...please. no one currently has your answer.  perhaps more details would be helpful? little things like motherboard chipset? make/brand/model of machine, etc?
[02:39] <vladuz976> kagemaro, why don't you try the forums instead of repasting here?
[02:40] <Prestidigita> my usb speakers doesn't work with ububntu
[02:40] <GNine> plug and play OS is enabled for windows, should i disable it for linux/ubuntu
[02:40] <dooglus> Frogzoo: really?  the "dooglus:" in front of it seemed to suggest it was...
[02:40] <wdh> vladuz976,  you can export to *.ps, there are plenty of tools to convert ps to pdf..
[02:40] <rausb0> Adnan_: and btw, there is no ubuntu 7. just 7.04 (feisty fawn) and 7.10 (gutsy gibbon, yet to be released)
[02:40] <Adnan_> rausb0: I pasted the error message from Net because Icould not write all that but the actual problem is same
[02:40] <vladuz976> wdh, i tried that, but it didn't work, gave an error, some plug in not working
[02:40] <Frogzoo> dooglus: I meant it's not necessary for gnome to fiddle with such things
[02:40] <vladuz976> wdh, just tried encapsulated ps, that worked
[02:40] <Prestidigita> What are the advantages of gutsy over fesity ?
[02:41] <rausb0> Adnan_: but kernel 2.6.17 is not in ubuntu 7.04.
[02:41] <wdh> vladuz976, ok.. great :)
[02:41] <Adnan_> i am using Ubuntu 7.04 as you corrected
[02:41] <Zylogue> Prestidigita, BETA!
[02:41] <vladuz976> wdh, think i can convert eps to pdf
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Do you want a calendar dayminder type of thing?
[02:41] <Frogzoo> dooglus: I think if you uninstall gsynaptic that will go away
[02:41] <novato_br> yep, Jacek_Kendysz
[02:41] <Prestidigita> Zylogue: It might be in beta but still what are the things which we can expect in the new versoin
[02:41] <novato_br> yep Jack_Sparrow
[02:41] <novato_br> i want a calender dayminder
[02:42] <zombie_monkey> isn't gaim supposed to be called pidgin in fiesty?
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: I use sunfire from Mozilla....
[02:42] <GNine> that sounds like a great idea , frog.. not
[02:42] <Stefano1337> if i have a wireless card which supports WPA (the manufacturer does not state it has WPA2) and i want to connect to a WPA2 network, does this work? i mean does the router offer me to join the network and only be WPA encrypted? (sorry a bit off topic)
[02:42] <Zylogue> Prestidigita, the Ubuntu developer's website ususally has that listed.  it is dynamic, so what is there today may not be, tomorrow...
[02:42] <rausb0> Adnan_: i looks like you first installed ubuntu 6.10 and upgraded to 7.04 afterwards.
[02:42] <novato_br> sunfire? Jack_Sparrow  what is the repository ?
[02:42] <Adnan_> rausb0: as I said that the eror peoblem has been pasted from net beause the actual problem is same  but that user asked for old version, i didnt find the way to copy the text from Console
[02:42] <jimmitastic> any idea what a meta key might be on a laptop? Its not alt!!!
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: One sec...  I think I got it directly from them....
[02:42] <zombie_monkey> jimmitastic: Fn?
[02:42] <AlexUbuntuBcn> i need help please... I'm installed ubuntu feisty fawn in a portable PC, and the keyboard many times don't works very well... i need push the keys 2 times, the enter don't works... seems than the buffer was full... i don't know... somone can help me please?
[02:42] <novato_br> oktanouc, Jack_Sparrow
[02:42] <Prestidigita> Zylogue: which means noone knows for sure what we can expect
[02:42] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, that will depend upon the router/AP and the drivers of yoru card
[02:42] <vladuz976> is there anybody doing serious design work on ubuntu, i am doing this part time and I run into the problem that ppl want source files and by that they mean psd
[02:43] <Zylogue> Prestidigita, in a nutshell, correct
[02:43] <rausb0> Adnan_: oh okay
[02:43] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I did, and it didn't
[02:43] <vladuz976> don't wanna switch to mac or win just to use photoshop and Illustrator
[02:43] <Adnan_> rausb0: any remedy orI just reinstall the Distro and DOn't run upgrade?
[02:43] <Frogzoo> dooglus: did you purge?
[02:43] <GNine> is linux/ubuntu a plug and play OS?
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: It may be sunbird
[02:43] <Stefano1337> Zylogue, i want to buy a pcmcia card and im worried because the site says it has wep and wpa, and my friends network is wpa2-psk, would be a sad if i buy it and could not connect to it
[02:43] <rsk> GNine: yes
[02:43] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I wouldn't expect it to, either.  If a user installs gsynaptics, uses it to fix his touchpad settings then uninstalled synaptics, he wouldn't expect that to break his settings, would he?
[02:43] <Zylogue> GNine,  as much as possible...
[02:44] <Stefano1337> Zylogue, how can i find out if it works?
[02:44] <rausb0> Adnan_: reinstall would be one solution. but booting the live CD and investigating for some more seems to be better.
[02:44] <novato_br> h, Jack_Sparrow ?
[02:44] <GNine> ok.. good.. i wont change the bios option then
[02:44] <GNine> heheh
[02:44] <jimmitastic> zombie_monkey: Unfortunately not..
[02:44] <Frogzoo> dooglus: rather counter intuitive
[02:44] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, again, it goes back to knowing if that card has linux support availbe or if the driver can my ndis wrapped.
[02:44] <rausb0> Adnan_: you said vmware does not boot the live cd although it is present?
[02:44] <Adnan_> ok since i am ignorant about ths but what do you mean by LiveCD?
[02:45] <Adnan_> i mean Distro CD in my cd drive, what do yo mean by LIVE CD?
[02:45] <Stefano1337> Zylogue, thats why i want this card, the wiki says it is fully supported without ndiswrapper
[02:45] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I just tried purging, and that still leaves the fixed settings.
[02:45] <jimmitastic> I can press esc but its not a smoooth
[02:45] <rausb0> Adnan_: the CD from which you have installed. was it the live (desktop) cd or the alternate (text mode installer) CD?
[02:45] <Frogzoo> dooglus: ouch!
[02:45] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: It is sunbird and I dont see it in the repos.. sunfire.. is what my wife drives ....
[02:46] <novato_br> your wife?
[02:46] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, that is nice.  if it has FULL support in linux, then anythign it can do in a windows environment SHOULD be available in a  Linux environment.  Have  you check the manufacturer's website for a support or forum tool that you can ask other users of the device for thoughts and information?
[02:46] <novato_br> is she working with linux ?
[02:46] <dooglus> Frogzoo: it's a tool for configuring my touchpad - a one-off thing.  I wouldn't expect uninstalling it to reset the settings.
[02:46] <Adnan_> I installed from the CD given by Ubuntu SHIp it, it had a graphical interface to intall. It showd a desktop first
[02:46] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird/download.html   yes she uses Ubuntu as well...
[02:46] <dooglus> Frogzoo: I was expecting it to edit xorg.conf, but it ran without sudo, so I guess it couldn't
[02:46] <Adnan_> rausb0:I installed from the CD given by Ubuntu SHIp it, it had a graphical interface to intall. It showd a desktop first
[02:47] <rausb0> Adnan_: okay. can you boot that one in vmware so we have access to the virtual hard disk?
[02:47] <germx> I am using fujitsu p1510.. is any one can help to configure touch screen?
[02:47] <Stefano1337> Zylogue, the website states that is hat support for WPA and WEP, they dont mention wpa2, so i suppose it doesnt have support for wpa2. i think im gonna have to look for another card, which will be more expensive..
[02:47] <Stefano1337> anyways, thank you
[02:47] <novato_br> cool, Jack_Sparrow
[02:47] <novato_br> it rare to see women on linux
[02:48] <jimmitastic> is there an emacs irc channel. Google brings me several irc clients for emacs, but that aint what I asked for!
[02:48] <germx> 
[02:48] <inflex> Is there a fonts-package that i can install for Ubuntu to give me common fonts like Ariel etc ?
[02:48] <germx> yes
[02:48] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, perhaps investigate the WPA/WPA2 details.  perhaps WPA has a backwards compatibility...
[02:48] <Adnan_> when I load VM machine it just shows prompt with error i mentioned above, i tried to boot from CD rather disk but vmware don't detect my CD and goes to had drive boot
[02:48] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Let me know if you have trouble installing it... I am not good at that stuff but it went smooth...
[02:48] <Stefano1337> okay
[02:48] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, read the standards...I don't know eithe rof those well enough to tellyou with certainty...

[02:48] <novato_br> oktanouc, Jack_Sparrow
[02:48] <novato_br> i will install it here
[02:48] <kaveh> ome o ep me
[02:49] <inflex> Jack_Sparrow: found the pkg, tx
[02:49] <novato_br> sorry, i did mean OK and not oktanouc
[02:49] <wdh> dooglus, shouldnt matter much...
[02:49] <novato_br> sorry, Jack_Sparrow
[02:49] <kaveh> i can now see my access point , but it wont connect to it
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[02:49] <Adnan_> rausb0: no, How can I do it?
[02:49] <rausb0> Adnan_: press F2 when vmware boots
[02:50] <dooglus> wdh: I installed the mozilla build because the ubuntu build kept crashing.  now the mozilla build keeps crashing too :(
[02:50] <Adnan_> ok, let me try
[02:50] <novato_br> thx, Jack_Sparrow
[02:50] <dooglus> wdh: so I guess you're right - it doesn't matter :)
[02:50] <wdh> dooglus, lol..
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: I think you will like it.. simple and easy to use...
[02:50] <rausb0> Adnan_: i haven't used vmware for some years, but i think it had its own bios
[02:50] <wdh> dooglus, then i suspect there is something else wrong on your system.. :)
[02:50] <Adnan_> it is hard disk as priority
[02:51] <Adnan_> should I make it cd rom?
[02:51] <Zylogue> rausb0, yes, it does...
[02:51] <rausb0> Adnan_: so change to cdrom
[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: Is it crashing on flash sites... did you install flash.. and HOW did you install it?
[02:51] <rausb0> Zylogue: alright
[02:51] <novato_br> cool, Jack_Sparrow
[02:51] <dooglus> wdh: the common link between most of the crashes has been that it happens when I switch from one youtube page to another.
[02:51] <Zylogue> Adnan_, which VMWare are you using?
[02:51] <dooglus> wdh: youtube uses the flash plugin - so maybe that's what is crashing
[02:52] <Adnan_> vmware Workstiation 5.5
[02:52] <K3nto> mounting an iso for me: http://pastebin.com/dd1f445c
[02:52] <kaveh> some one help me plz
[02:52] <Stefano1337> Zylogue, i found one that is only five euros more expensive, very well, i'll order it. some blog states that its fully supported by ubuntu (since 5.10) out of the box, and it is said to support wpa2, that will work
[02:52] <Zylogue> Adnan_,  have you created a virtual machine and edited the properties to mount the CD-Rom inside the VM?
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: Sorry that was meant for wdh   :)
[02:52] <giany911> guys im having some problems transfering music to my msi digi player 600 mp3 player .... no new drives appear and amarok doesnt see it
[02:52] <wdh> dooglus, it just might be.. good luck fixing it.. you might want to try another browser.. there are plenty available on ubuntu
[02:53] <dooglus> wdh: got any recommendations?
[02:53] <wdh> Jack_Sparrow, was it?
[02:53] <Zylogue> Stefano1337, congrats...good luck with it.  letthe rest of us know if it works, we may need one, someday.
[02:53] <wdh> dooglus, epiphany if you are using gnome..
[02:53] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: I think it was meant for me
[02:53] <Stefano1337> okay
[02:53] <Adnan_> vm detects the cdrom when boot, i didn't make any changes for Booting. I am trying again ,somehow it didn't save the settins
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> wdh: Flash being a possible problem and not the browser.. yes
[02:53] <cyphase> Does anyone know how to monitor how much swap space is being used on a per process basis?
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> wdh: Either which way... yea
[02:53] <kaveh> any one can help me with wifi
[02:53] <dooglus> wdh: I like firefox's shortcuts.  like how I can type "bug nautilus" and have it go to the nautilus page of launchpad.net
[02:54] <K3nto> can someoene help me mount a bin file?
[02:54] <GNine> too heavy
[02:54] <tritoch> anyone know what's up with ubuntuguide.org ?
[02:55] <tritoch> i can't load it, its google cache, or its archive.org cache
[02:55] <Zylogue> K3nto, use
[02:55] <Zylogue> http://he.fi/bchunk/ to make it an .iso
[02:55] <cyphase> tritoch: it's the Microsoft conspiracy!
[02:55] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: according to about:plugins:     File name: libflashplayer.so Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31
[02:55] <germx> man
[02:55] <germx> mando
[02:55] <tritoch> cyphase: do you know if there's a mirror?
[02:56] <cyphase> tritoch: no
[02:56] <Adnan_> rausb0: it's loading ffro CD now
[02:56] <tritoch> it was a very wonderful guide when i used it a while ago
[02:56] <rausb0> Adnan_: good
[02:56] <tritoch> i wish i would have saved it - but i cant understand why it wouldnt load on archive.org
[02:56] <Adnan_> which option should I select?
[02:56] <Adnan_> rausb0: "Install from CD ROM" ?
[02:56] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: How was it installed... Synaptic or some script like Envy or Automatix
[02:56] <rausb0> Adnan_: yes. but just boot to the desktop.
[02:56] <Adnan_> ok
[02:56] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: I think I did it manually.  downloaded from adobe
[02:57] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: I wouldn't use a 3rd party script on my boxes
[02:57] <seth457> dooglus: after installing vim how do i use it?
[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: That is more likely the source of your problem
[02:57] <seth457> i don't see it anywhere
[02:57] <K3nto> Zylogue: it gives me two iso files..
[02:57] <giany911> guys im having problems with transfering mp3s to a msi digi player 600 ... no new drives appear and amarok doesnt see it
[02:57] <dooglus> seth457: you type "vim filename", then hit 'i' and type stuff then hit escape
[02:57] <Adnan_> rausb0: loading
[02:57] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: it is?
[02:57] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: where would you suggest I get it from?  I thought adobe wrote it?
[02:57] <kaveh> some one plz he me with iwconfig
[02:58] <Zylogue> K3nto, the tool gives you two .iso files or the site?
[02:58] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: The crashing ... Yes...  Even though adobe wrote it does not mean the latest version form them is right for your version of Ubuntu..
[02:58] <K3nto> Zylogue: tool
[02:58] <Adnan_> rausb0: it's taking time
[02:59] <seth457> dooglus: ok, so any ideas on why it asks me for the c librarys when compiling? do i have to install those as well?
[02:59] <rausb0> Adnan_: i know :)
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> !flash
[02:59] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash

[03:02] <rausb0> kaveh: so it's open (unencrypted)?
[03:02] <rsk> seth457: dont know
[03:02] <seth457> lol
[03:02] <LGM^> i have just installed wine and i seem to cannot find the icon to launce it is there any way to launch wine form the terminal
[03:02] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: ok, it turns out that the flash plugin available from the repos is newer than the adobe version I had installed...
[03:03] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: let's hope it's more stable :)
[03:03] <kaveh> rausb0, i see the access point but i can not connect to it
[03:03] <seth457> apt-get install build-essential
[03:03] <rausb0> Adnan_: first check if the root filesystem can be mounted
[03:03] <seth457> wrong window...
[03:03] <kaveh> rausb0, yes , first i want to be able to connet
[03:03] <rausb0> kaveh: what exactly do you mean by "see" and "connect"? what tools do you use?
[03:03] <[andres] > Is anyone using gutsy? Is it stable enough to use on a non-critical machine?
[03:03] <dooglus> seth457: stick a 'sudo' in front of it to get root access
[03:03] <exs> Jack_Sparrow:  I hate this list "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported" if it says 'works out of box "yes" then, why is there instructions on the right saying to use NDISwrapper!! that isn't works-out-of-box to me!
[03:03] <Adnan_> ok
[03:03] <Adnan_> its loaded
[03:04] <seth457> dooglus: thanks :)
[03:04] <Adnan_> rausb0: what's next?
[03:04] <kaveh> rausb0, kde network manager , and iwconfig
[03:04] <rausb0> Adnan_: loaeded? you mean mounted
[03:04] <rausb0> kaveh: sorry, i do not use kde. cannot help you with that.
[03:04] <Adnan_> i mean  I can see desktop
[03:04] <Adnan_> and waiting for your next instruction
[03:04] <kaveh> rausb0, i have gnome too
[03:04] <rausb0> Adnan_: no, the desktop is running from cd now.
[03:05] <rausb0> Adnan_: kaveh sorry, i am occupied by helping Adnan_
[03:05] <Adnan_> yes i know, i am asking what would be the next step?
[03:05] <rausb0> kaveh: sorry, i am occupied by helping Adnan_
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> exs: I didnt write the list...
[03:05] <rausb0> Adnan_: mounting the root filesystem
[03:05] <kaveh> rausb0, k anks
[03:05] <Adnan_> rausb0: ok can you please guide me how do I do it?
[03:05] <exs> Jack_Sparrow:  I know, and I thank you for the mention of the netgear usb one, but jesus christ, that is such a misleading list - the community really needs to sort that out.
[03:06] <Jack_Sparrow> exs: I use all broadcom bcm43xx chipsets.. they dont work out of the box but quick and easy to get them going.
[03:06] <rausb0> Adnan_: hmm, you really should get some basic commandline knowledge
[03:06] <rausb0> Adnan_: do you mind if we take this to another channel?
[03:06] <exs> Jack_Sparrow:  I have a broadcom in my laptop, took me bloody ages to get it working, would not advise for a linux newbie, certainly not
[03:06] <Adnan_> rausb0: sorry, yes I will not mind
[03:07] <Adnan_> where can I join?
[03:07] <om_> I'm using Feisty/Gnome/Beryl and until recently everything was working fine but for no reason the volume control on the keyboard suddenly stopped working
[03:07] <rausb0> Adnan_: join #rausbhelp
[03:07] <om_> and i can't figure out how to get it back
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> exs: Did you use fwcutter or did you try ndiswrapper
[03:07] <exs> Jack_Sparrow:  I shouldn't have to do any of that business if I'm a linux newbie. I had to learn it and if I wasn't so determined, I would have quit linux al together.
[03:07] <om_> I added "Keyboard Indicator" to the panel.. could that have messed it up?
[03:08] <exs> My friend has only just heard of linux, and I want to give him the correct harder for a better experience, if he has to learn any NDIS rubbish, then that's linux finished for him.
[03:08] <LGM^> i have just installed wine and i seem to cannot find the icon to launce it is there any way to launch wine form the terminal ?
[03:08] <exs> hardware****
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> exs: THis isnt the debate room....  The hardware suppliers need to support us.....  or the users need to look for linux supported hardware...
[03:08] <dooglus> LGM^: once you've installed programs in wine, they appear on your apps menu
[03:08] <exs> LGM^:  you can associate it with .exe's, but i forgot how. it is possible though
[03:09] <vircobum> The hawking usb wifi works with Kunbuntu quite well even on ppc
[03:09] <LGM^> exs , I just need to start wine
[03:09] <banyunet> ....
[03:09] <exs> Jack_Sparrow:  Some hardware supports linux, but this list that the community has given me is misleading and annoying. it has a column with 'works out of box?', some say 'yes' and some of the ones which say that have 'need to install ndis wrapper...' or 'download new drivers, compile from source'
[03:10] <exs> totally insane
[03:10] <gsevil> I install kubuntu on ubuntu, then may start up screen is Kubuntu, how can I change back to ubuntu
[03:10] <Arafangion> exs: Not everybody uses every feature of a particular device.
[03:10] <Frogzoo> LGM^: wine app.exe
[03:11] <eggzeck> LGM^, usually the command to start an app is the same name as the program itself.
[03:11] <dooglus> LGM^: only usually in lower case
[03:12] <om_> How do I use the keyboard volume control shortcut with Beryl?
[03:12] <LGM^> thanks
[03:14] <gsevil> how can I change my splash startup screen to ubuntu after install kubuntu
[03:14] <czr> any idea how to rerun udev rules for a specific device? (it's not a hot-plug device)
[03:15] <[andres] > gsevil: there problably is an easier way, but you could use startup manager to change back to the ubuntu-splash
[03:15] <IdleOne> !usplash
[03:15] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[03:16] <coma> I have d/l every thign i can think of that could have anything to do with Flash and im still getting messed up web pages

[03:16] <oompaloompa> hello, world
[03:16] <[andres] > hehe... yeah, there was an easier way...
[03:16] <oompaloompa> does BSD still use UFS and can i get read/write support for it in linux?
[03:17] <eggzeck> coma, the official adobe website has a file that you can run to install the Flash player, did you try this?
[03:17] <oompaloompa> i guess my biggest question does anyone know what fs bsd uses?
[03:17] <eggzeck> oompaloompa, do you know this is an ubuntu channel?
[03:17] <itto> hai levander
[03:17] <oompaloompa> yes i am in ubuntu write now
[03:18] <oompaloompa> trying to access a bsd partition

[03:21] <efram> im trying to install wine using terminal, I type ./tools/wineinstall but I get C compiler error..
[03:21] <eggzeck> coma, or cd to the directory you extracted the contents to :-)
[03:22] <Jack_Sparrow> efram: Was there something wrong with installing it from synaptic?
[03:22] <IdleOne> efram: sudo apt-get install build-essential ( fix the compiler error ) and why not install wine from the repos
[03:23] <cappiz> im trying to compile something... i get this error:
[03:23] <cappiz> bash: ./configure: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[03:23] <cappiz> what is that?
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[03:23] <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!)
[03:23] <efram> Jack_Sparrow: IdleOne thanks and Jack_Sparrow the package is 10 versions old.. they dont have any of the new ones on package
[03:23] <cappiz> Jack_Sparrow, nah... its not that
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> efram: It may not be the newest version.. but it is one we know will work.

[03:28] <kazami> Anyone knows how to start the Screenlets 0.0.9?
[03:28] <fsckr> eggzeck, some people dont take the time to read up on basic stuff.....they depend on others
[03:28] <tarek_> i have a 64bit laptop, and i want to build and make a deb package for it
[03:29] <nblracer> Frogzoo, are those commands that are standerd, or do i need to install stuff
[03:29] <efram> Jack_Sparrow:  yah I know hehe and I only started using ubuntu like 2 days ago hehe..
[03:29] <kazami> Does anyone knows how to start the Screenlets 0.0.9?
[03:29] <Frogzoo> nblracer: both are packages - tripwire to monitor install integrity will be a huge hassle though
[03:30] <yugi> Hey all
[03:30] <nblracer> smartmontools, could not be find and TripWire needed to be instaled, Frogzoo, are there any built in ways
[03:30] <nblracer> i ask since its been locking up on boot up latly
[03:31] <efram> Jack_Sparrow: what is X development headers?

[03:31] <ericrost> hey, can anyone answer a virtualbox question? just considering which virtualization software to use
[03:31] <lpanebr> fsckr: ok, thanks. I removed the package and now synaptic is ok again.

[03:31] <fsckr> lpanebr, you are welcome :)
[03:32] <ericrost> with the free version of virtualbox can you connect to a vm on a remote host from a client on a desktop machine (like you can with vmware)?
[03:32] <morteza> anybody know how to compile GUI java program in Ubuntu because when i compile only empty box will appear
[03:32] <nblracer> I also notice a huge slow down after upgrading to 7, from 6
[03:32] <fsckr> also if you do alot of compiling look into checkinstall it will save you some headaches in the long run
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> K3nto: mounting .iso files.  mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mountpoint
[03:32] <efram> Can anyone tell me how to get X development headers?
[03:32] <eggzeck> fsckr, I didn't tell him to read (even though you're right), I actually gave him step by step details :-)
[03:33] <K3nto> Jack_Sparrow: did you look at my pastebin? http://pastebin.com/d4d4c3d96
[03:33] <fsckr> i know eggzeck it is just frustrating when i see people that just dont read or at least make an attempt
[03:33] <eggzeck> fsckr, I even included the "cd" part. Guess he didn't even read what I wrote
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> K3nto: no.. just answered your question
[03:33] <eggzeck> fsckr, yes, so do I. I'm with you. :-)
[03:33] <fsckr> sudo rm -R /

[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> fsckr:  please do not post that command in the channel
[03:34] <xero9364> Hello
[03:34] <fsckr> omg
[03:34] <czr> how to make udevd rerun vol_id commands (and refresh /dev/disks/by-*/-dirs)?
[03:34] <fsckr> ladies and gentlemen we have a chaparone
[03:34] <BeatBreaker82> the drive has been behaving strangely ever since i edited my fstab
[03:35] <xero9364> fsckr: WTF are you talking about
[03:35] <lpanebr> fsckr: I think it happend after I tryed to install the nvidia drivers for a geforce7900gs with Envy.  I wish I never used Envy before.
[03:35] <BeatBreaker82> can anyone help me with setting up an external read/write NTFS external drive?
[03:35] <Layer8> hi all!
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> BeatBreaker82: You might want to start by posting your fstab to the pastebin.. not in the channel
[03:35] <fsckr> lpanebr, yea they say envy can break a system
[03:35] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow: yea no worries
[03:35] <expose> Hi
[03:35] <xero9364> BeatBreaker82: I think its "sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g"
[03:35] <expose> How long is Lont Term Support?
[03:36] <xero9364> I'm not sure, though.
[03:36] <Layer8> when I try to make-kpkg clean i get an error that tells me something about infiniband is missing...how can I fix this?
[03:36] <lpanebr> fsckr: any clue as how to restore the system as to before Envy?
[03:36] <xero9364> expose: It's on the site. If you can't find it in about 3 minutes I'll go look it up, as I don't know it myself.
[03:36] <K3nto> http://pastebin.com/d4d4c3d96 <--- my iso wont mount :(
[03:36] <fsckr> define restore system lpanebr :)
[03:36] <kazami> Which command I can use to remove a DEB package which I have installed
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[03:36] <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!
[03:36] <fsckr> xero9364, that is correct its ntfs-3g
[03:37] <Basmaster> hey everyone, I am running Ubuntu server 7.04 on my rackmount when i try to apt-get some packages it asks for cdrom, unfortunatly due to security reasons I do not have CDRoms in servers. can i somehow download the source and keep it in a folder
[03:37] <BeatBreaker82> My paste bin http://pastebin.com/m1686220d
[03:37] <BeatBreaker82> of fstab
[03:37] <xero9364> Hooray! I didn't get scolded for speaking of the unstable package!
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> lpanebr: Restore from backup or fresh install....
[03:37] <delire> kazami: dpkg -P <packagename> or apt-get remove <packagename>
[03:37] <BeatBreaker82> you can see where i've commented out what i put in before
[03:37] <xero9364> In #Debian people would've beaten the hellz out of me.
[03:37] <erUSUL> kazami: apt-get?? dpkg??
[03:37] <eggzeck> Basmaster, I think you're a bit confused
[03:38] <Ubuntu_> s spell check, no wonder ene never spells anything wrong lol :P
[03:38] <eggzeck> Basmaster, change your sources.list file
[03:38] <delire> kazami: the '-P' in dpkg means "purge"
[03:38] <Basmaster> eggzeck it's asking me to insert the install cd into /cdrom/
[03:38] <lpanebr> fsckr: I mean tha just uninstalling Envy probably wont restore any damage it may have caused.
[03:38] <eggzeck> Basmaster, yes because your sources.list might be wrong
[03:38] <fsckr> what other damage do you have other than the nvidia-glx-dev package?
[03:38] <kazami> Do you know how to run Screenlets 0.0.9?
[03:38] <coma> eggzeck: Yeah, the instruction on the adobe site asked to navigate to the folder in the terminal. i had never done that before.
[03:39] <Rabbitbunny> I must be bad at burning CD's, none of them work. I'm going to try a network install. Do I need to turn off my routers' DHCP?
[03:39] <eggzeck> coma, Yes, which is why I told you to cd ~/desktop ;-)
[03:39] <delire> coma: a very powerful thing to learn.
[03:39] <efram> Can anyone tell me how to get X development headers?
[03:39] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow:  http://pastebin.com/m1686220d
[03:39] <xero9364> Rabbitbunny: You have a BOOTP server already set up?
[03:39] <Basmaster> yes eggzeck that was it, thank you! :)
[03:39] <swiftnomad> how would you uninstall compiz fusion
[03:39] <delire> coma: the '~' in UNIX is a shortcut for the home directory of the currently logged in user.
[03:39] <coma> eggzeck: thanks, i must have missed it.
[03:39] <xero9364> efram: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-dev
[03:39] <eggzeck> Basmaster, check this file: /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:39] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, how to I install the sunbird?
[03:39] <novato_br> i cant
[03:39] <xero9364> and lots of other stuff i forgot
[03:39] <efram> thanks xero9364
[03:39] <fsckr> or coma all you have to do in terminal is type cd and enter
[03:40] <xero9364> :)
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> BeatBreaker82: sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/jack/Desktop/KNOPPIX_V5.0.1CD-2006-06-01-EN.iso /media/knoppix
[03:40] <fsckr> that will take you to your home dir
[03:40] <delire> coma: you can 'ls ~' or 'ls $HOME' to list the contents of the home directory (for instance).
[03:40] <user__> jerry
[03:40] <novato_br> i didn't find the packets to install here, i did download it
[03:40] <Layer8> when I try to make-kpkg clean i get an error that tells me something about infiniband is missing...how can I fix this?
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> BeatBreaker82: An example of how I do it with knoppix
[03:40] <Basmaster> eggzeck: ya i had to comment out cdrom, thanks again
[03:40] <omar> Hello there
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Where are you at with sunbird... have the download on your desktop?
[03:40] <eggzeck> Basmaster, no problem. I knew that's what it was as soon as you explained your problem :-)
[03:40] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow: is that to read/write an fstab?
[03:41] <xero9364> @efram: I don't know all the packages you need. Try installing all of them with "x" and "-dev" in them
[03:41] <larson9999> i've looked but haven't found anything to speak of.  is there a converter for linux that will convert video files to smv?
[03:41] <novato_br> i did download it
[03:41] <coma> eggzeck: lol im going to have to right thisdown to remember.
[03:41] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow: sorry i mean a NTFS
[03:41] <Rabbitbunny> xero9364: I don't know what that is. I'm running XP.
[03:41] <novato_br> it is on my desktop, Jack_Sparrow
[03:41] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, it is : sunbird-0.5.pt-BR.linux-i686.tar.gz
[03:41] <Pay> hi!
[03:41] <novato_br> i cant install it
[03:41] <xero9364> Rabbitbunny: You need a BOOTP server before you can netboot.
[03:41] <xero9364> Rabbitbunny: I would suggest ordering CDs.
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> BeatBreaker82:  sorry that was for k3nt   he left
[03:41] <Layer8> when I try to make-kpkg clean i get an error that tells me something about infiniband is missing...how can I fix this?
[03:42] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, what can I do ?
[03:42] <xero9364> My install isn't perfect. It lacks icons in the GNOME panel.
[03:42] <anandanbu> Help needed to install second linux distribution in a system with ubuntu7.04 and windows xp
[03:42] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow: haha k then, i was a little confussed - did you get the paste bin?
[03:42] <expose> xero9364: got it, 3 & 5 yrs for desktop and server. if i install a typical desktop, and after 4 years, when only server support is still available, the basic packages and maybe an apache i installed on that desktop will still be updated?
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Let me see if I can walk you through it...
[03:42] <fsckr> http://fsckr.net/images/rich.jpg there are my icons xero9364 hehe
[03:42] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, on that site cant find instructions to install the sunbird
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> BeatBreaker82: I need to finish with nova first..
[03:42] <Rabbitbunny> xero9364: M'kay. I'll google and figure that part out first.
[03:43] <xero9364> anandanbu: GParted.
[03:43] <BeatBreaker82> Jack_Sparrow: no problems sorry
[03:43] <laskar> adit
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: double click and it opens a window right
[03:43] <novato_br> i went on that site, Jack_Sparrow and i did download them
[03:43] <novato_br> nomax, Jack_Sparrow
[03:43] <novato_br> i'm on linux
[03:43] <novato_br> i did download linux version
[03:44] <xero9364> lol Buuf icons.
[03:44] <anandanbu> xero9364: i have a free space of 20 gb in my hdd but i the last time when i installed fedora 7 in that all messed up and i was not able to boot in ubuntu 7.04
[03:44] <fsckr> novato_br, just right click the filename and choose extract here
[03:44] <Pay> is there somebody who has also a problem with firefox and flash?
[03:44] <fsckr> there is probably a readme in there
[03:44] <novato_br> yep, fsckr , i did
[03:44] <fsckr> oh
[03:44] <fsckr> sorr
[03:44] <xero9364> anandanbu: I'm a newbie. I can't help much without a LOT of specific details
[03:44] <fsckr> y
[03:44] <novato_br> on readme don't have instructions to install
[03:44] <eggzeck> Pay, did you try the official Adobe FLah player installer?
[03:44] <BeatBreaker82> anyone help with mounting an external drive NTFS partitoned? http://pastebin.com/m1686220d
[03:44] <omar> I don't know if it is a firefox and flash thing, I just notice my firefox crashes every now and then
[03:44] <xero9364> Pay: I had problems with said setup on Debian, but Ubuntu works fine
[03:45] <fsckr> no document whatsoever in there about install?
[03:45] <BeatBreaker82> omar: my one does too
[03:45] <Pay> eggzeck, yes i have it installed but it crashes a lot
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Extract the folder in that tar file to your desktop or to your /home/user
[03:45] <fsckr> i have no problems with flash and never have knock on wood
[03:45] <fsckr> im running gutsy right now
[03:45] <kazami> I have run it ^_^
[03:45] <novato_br> i did, Jack_Sparrow
[03:45] <omar> the problem is that it does it randomly so I could not tel if it is flash related
[03:45] <eggzeck> Pay, oh... DOesn't crash for me at all. Weird.
[03:45] <xero9364> fsckr: YOU CHEATED
[03:45] <Rabbitbunny> xero9364: Oh, the tutorial tells me how to make the BOOTP server, it just doesn't say to turn of DHCP on my router.
[03:45] <xero9364> Gutsy is for smrt pplz
[03:45] <fsckr> ? xero9364 i cheated?
[03:45] <fsckr> hehe
[03:45] <anandanbu> xero9364: last time during the fedora7 installation in the free space the installation was good and after that the grub had only fedora and windows
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Where is the sunbird install folder now?
[03:45] <Hrvat>  hello do you know where i can buy book Maximum Linux Security but online
[03:45] <BeatBreaker82> is there a channel for Dell owners?
[03:46] <eggzeck> Hrvat, try amazon
[03:46] <xero9364> ] anandanbu: Obviously Fedora didn't pick up Ubuntu when GRUB scanned for it. It was still there, just unreachable.
[03:46] <delire> will there be any compelling reasons to upgrade to Gutsy? i read that a few of the more exciting features are now no longer going in.
[03:46] <Pay> eggzeck, thanks i read a lot in the wiki etc but no solution. there are a lot of people who have problems
[03:46] <novato_br> what is next step after extracted it, Jack_Sparrow ?
[03:46] <eggzeck> Hrvat, though that isn't really an Ubuntu question
[03:46] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, go to ubuntuforums.org there is a section in there for dell
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Where is the sunbird install folder now?
[03:46] <xero9364> delire: Official Compiz Fusion (No tervino repo)
[03:46] <Pay> its like 50:50 running it sometimes it crashes sometimes not :(
[03:46] <delire> xero9364: are you sure that's going in?
[03:46] <Hrvat> well i was just asking,
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: On your desktop or another folder
[03:46] <omar> yup
[03:46] <xero9364> Pretty sure, delire
[03:46] <novato_br> /home/<username>/Desktop/sunbird, Jack_Sparrow
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> ok...
[03:47] <mc2ts> need help installing printer
[03:47] <delire> xero9364: is it dependent on xorg7.3 at all?
[03:47] <fsckr> !cups | mc2ts
[03:47] <ubotu> mc2ts: Printing in Ubuntu is done with CUPS. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[03:47] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: will do - i'm not on a pre set up ubuntu dell machine - this one came with Vista - i nuked it. Just was asking for interests sake
[03:47] <mc2ts> it's not in the list...
[03:47] <BeatBreaker82> anyone help with mounting an external drive NTFS partitoned? http://pastebin.com/m1686220d
[03:47] <anandanbu> xero9364: thanks for your help anyway
[03:47] <omar> where can I subscribe to the ubuntu newsletter?
[03:47] <delire> xero9364: because that's no longer being shipped with Gutsy (alongwith Unbreakable X and a few other X goodies).
[03:47] <mc2ts> canon has no linux drivers
[03:48] <xero9364> delire: I have no idea. Compiz-fusion runs well on my current desktop. I think it's 7.2
[03:48] <delire> xero9364: right, i see. cheers.
[03:48] <delire> xero9364: and it will be enabled by default?
[03:48] <novato_br> what is program that will execute ?
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: FYI instide that folder should be text file sunbird installation
[03:48] <Floker> omg quick please what is the command to remove the right so see a certain folder from the group "guest"
[03:48] <xero9364> I thinkz so
[03:48] <Floker> ?
[03:48] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, i have a couple network drives mounted
[03:48] <eggzeck> omar, Have you tried reading the content on ubuntu.com ?
[03:48] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, you want to see my fstab?
[03:48] <novato_br> i don't find this text, Jack_Sparrow
[03:48] <omar> yes, there is no place to subscribe
[03:48] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: every little bit helps
[03:49] <swiftnomad> how do you uninstall compiz fusion
[03:49] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, k hold on sec ill pastebin it
[03:49] <swiftnomad> ??
[03:49] <omar> or maybe I didnt have enouh sleep
[03:49] <xero9364> afk
[03:49] <oompaloompa> !UFS
[03:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ufs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Double click the folder and tell me the files inside it.
[03:49] <novato_br> i don't find text about instalation instructions
[03:49] <novato_br> ok
[03:49] <novato_br> wait
[03:49] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: i will be using this external drive to be plugged in and out at various times of the day - i just want write access to it also
[03:49] <delire> novato_br: often you'll find an 'INSTALL' or 'README' in tar archives.
[03:49] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, http://pastebin.com/m4daa6379
[03:50] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: thankx
[03:50] <NET||abuse> Anyone know how to map volume control to keyboard combinations?
[03:50] <fsckr> i have read and write to both drives
[03:50] <stefg> !keytouch | NET||abuse
[03:50] <ubotu> NET||abuse: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[03:50] <NET||abuse> I have an nx6110 laptop, and i want to use volume switches, there are none on this model,
[03:50] <swiftnomad> Im still wondering how to uninstall compiz fusion
[03:50] <swiftnomad> lol
[03:50] <NET||abuse> stefg, exceelnt :)
[03:50] <fsckr> NETabuse, you talkin bout keyboard shortcuts?
[03:50] <novato_br> on README or INSTALL don't have instructions about instalation
[03:50] <NET||abuse> fsckr, yeh,
[03:51] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, look at: http://www.cjb.net/images.html?5615a.png
[03:51] <omar> eggzeck, so where on ubuntu.com is it?
[03:51] <stefg> NET||abuse: keytouch is in Feisty repos, so you can apt-get
[03:51] <fsckr> click on system<preferences<keyboard shortcuts
[03:51] <delire> swiftnomad: search for it in synaptic, select it and remove it.
[03:51] <swiftnomad> ok
[03:51] <NET||abuse> stefg, oh cool! that sounds like a plan :)
[03:51] <novato_br> the read file is: Para informaes sobre instalao, uso e configurao do Sunbird,
[03:51] <novato_br> incluindo uma lista de problemas conhecidos e informaes de diagnstico,
[03:51] <novato_br> consulte: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/
[03:51] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: there's no read/write NTFS partitions in there so won't help me too much
[03:51] <NET||abuse> stefg, thanks :)
[03:52] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, you see the last 2 entries?
[03:52] <novato_br> don't have anything more information, Jack_Sparrow
[03:52] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, those are ntfs partitions
[03:52] <Grungebunny> swift one of the online guides to installing it started with you uninstalling all your failed attempts so you have a fresh slate to work with.. that would remove it completely I believe.
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: First you have the download...  then you unpack that and have folder sunbird installation  inside that you should have two files one text on how to install and another archive with the program
[03:52] <novato_br> yep, Jack_Sparrow
[03:52] <novato_br> but on folder don't have the how to install file text
[03:52] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: cifs? what is it?
[03:53] <coma_> eggzeck: so now that i did that will i have to uninstall the flashplugin-nonfree install that i got in synaptics?
[03:53] <delire> novato_br: this is an unconventional way to install software. are you sure there's no sunbird package for you to apt-get install?
[03:53] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: i've been using ntfs-3g (as you've probably seen from my pastebin
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: and where are you stuck on the text file sunfire installation
[03:53] <novato_br> nomax, delire , sunbird is not repository
[03:53] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=12306
[03:53] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: why use one over the other
[03:53] <Floker> i forgot the password of one user (guest) how can i set a new one? passwd sez auth. failiure
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: sunbird.. sorry keepo saying sunfire
[03:54] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, you will find there are many diff ways to accomplish the same thing
[03:54] <eggzeck> coma_, not really. Restart your Firefox. If they happen to conflict then yes.
[03:54] <delire> novato_br: yes, i see it isn't yet available.
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: Do you mind joining me in /j #Voyager so I can walk you through this.
[03:54] <novato_br> look dudes
[03:54] <novato_br> http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/

[03:54] <novato_br> i download this file
[03:54] <novato_br> SUNBIRD
[03:54] <larson9999> man, i picked up this media player for $20.  it's about 2"x1", plays video, mp3, fm tuner, text files, records fm or voice, and jpeg.  and has 2gb storage.  the only thing i don't like is it's an internal/non user replaceable battery and it doesn't take a memory card.  but man these are getting cheap.
[03:54] <oompaloompa> how can i create a logical volume to keep the data on my /home partition, but also merge it with a partition on a separate physical drive?
[03:55] <coma_> eggzeck: Not sure how to know if they confliced, all i know is that the problems im having havent changed.
[03:55] <coma_> there*
[03:55] <demon_>  irc.ogamenet.net
[03:55] <stefg> oompaloompa: what do you mean by 'merge' ?
[03:56] <BeatBreaker82> stefg: awesome - is this the one that automatix uses?
[03:56] <omar> ok, thanks later ya all
[03:56] <gvsa123> do prelease versions have to function exactly the same way as stable versions? or are some things held back until the final release?
[03:56] <stefg> BeatBreaker82: no idea what automatx uses
[03:56] <gvsa123> pre-release i'm sorry
[03:56] <BeatBreaker82> stefg: i used the automatix one once upon a time and didn't really work too well
[03:56] <Xanadu> Hi all - got a NFS question
[03:56] <BeatBreaker82> stefg: well i'll give it a go - gutsy will have this on there (or somehting like it) won't it?
[03:56] <stefg> BeatBreaker82: i guess you are aware of !automatix factoid?
[03:57] <oompaloompa> stefg: like, join the two partitions so they are now one partition
[03:57] <BeatBreaker82> st
[03:57] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82,
[03:57] <BeatBreaker82> stefg: factoid?
[03:57] <elkbuntu> !automatix
[03:57] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[03:57] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, just sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> novato_br: You should have downloaded this file....   sunbird-0.5.en-US.linux-i686.tar.gz  double clicking that you should see a folder sunbird... click on extract make sure you have checked all files and extract it to your desktop (for now)
[03:57] <fsckr> automatix can be bad news
[03:57] <stefg> !automatix | BeatBreaker82
[03:57] <ubotu> BeatBreaker82: please see above
[03:57] <gvsa123> stefg: do pre-release versions have to function exactly the same way as stable versions? or are some things held back until the final release?
[03:57] <novato_br> oktanouc, Jack_Sparrow
[03:57] <Xanadu> I've got a server with NFS at home, but when I leave the network with my laptop, it completely stuffs up Nautilus and tab complete as it sits and tries to connect to the NFS share. And you can't unmount if the machine can't see the NFS server. Anyone got a solution?
[03:57] <novato_br> thx, i'll see it
[03:57] <BeatBreaker82> fsckr: yeah i was getting to that
[03:58] <Stefano1337> how can i lock a user in his home directory?
[03:58] <BeatBreaker82> i always tend not to use automatix
[03:58] <Rabbitbunny> I think I'm missing a step. I just followed the tutorial to the T, Tftpd is running and setup per the tut. Yet I have no floppy to put in the other PC. I need a floppy for a net install right?
[03:58] <stefg> gvsa123: things are n flux, but nothing is probably 'held back'. The idea of public testing is ... well exactly that
[03:58] <BeatBreaker82> i'm not a bad user - i've just never done this with an external before
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Time for morning coffee with the wife... play nice... bbl
[03:59] <fsckr> BeatBreaker82, we have all been there at one time or another
[03:59] <fsckr> bye Jack_Sparrow
[03:59] <fsckr> hmmm coffee
[03:59] <fsckr> sounds like homer simpson
[03:59] <eggzeck> Only when I first started using Linux, I made sure I read up on it A  LOT
[03:59] <eggzeck> SO that I won'dt be clueless
[03:59] <gvsa123> stefg: so small problems like no login sound even though system sound are working, and no shutdown usplash can be considered bugs? i just installed gutsy.
[04:00] <eggzeck> So that I won't be clueless*
[04:00] <fsckr> ive found gutsy to be pretty good so far
[04:00] <fsckr> ive had no problems yet
[04:00] <stefg> oompaloompa: you could look at the -bind option in man mount, but generally i don't think that's a good idea. if you need permanent backup i'd consider a raid 1 (possibly with lvm) between a local and removable partition
[04:01] <Xanadu> Repeat: I've got a server with NFS at home, but when I leave the network with my laptop, it completely stuffs up Nautilus and tab complete as it sits and tries to connect to the NFS share. And you can't unmount if the machine can't see the NFS server. Anyone got a solution?
[04:01] <stefg> gvsa123: that might be temporary glitches. i's only report that on a Release candidate, not now
[04:01] <Zylogue> Xanadu, profiles?
[04:01] <Blauhaut> hiyaaa
[04:01] <Blauhaut> How can i see my MAC Adress ?
[04:02] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: ip a
[04:02] <Zylogue> Xanadu, or turn off automount
[04:02] <Zylogue> Blauhaut, sudo ifconfig
[04:02] <Xanadu> Zylogue: Then I have to remember to change the profile. If I need to remember that then I'd remember to umount. It's fstab mounted
[04:02] <larson9999> mac address? is that the bachelor pad where you get your mac on?
[04:02] <stefg> Blauhaut: cat /etc/iftab
[04:02] <cewEk> rere
[04:02] <Blauhaut> i get with ip a thanks
[04:02] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: no problem
[04:03] <Xanadu> What I'd really like is a short (maybe 1 sec) timeout on NFS read fails and then it umounts the drive automatically
[04:03] <gvsa123> stefg: i see... at least the desktop install worked with my system now...
[04:04] <Zylogue> Xanadu, I'm not that familiar with NFS...  perhaps there is a way to change the timeout on the mount command, instead?
[04:04] <GNine> grub still shows windows as a OS boot option. except there is no windows. how to tell grub to stop thinking bout windows?
[04:04] <oompaloompa> edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:04] <NET||abuse> hmm, installed keytouch,, but my model of laptop isn't listed in the keyboard layouts
[04:04] <oompaloompa> take out windows entry
[04:04] <BeatBreaker82> hey also is there a GUI for partitioning? I need to do some resizing etc...
[04:04] <Xanadu> Zylogue: unfortunately NFS timeout works really strangely
[04:04] <oompaloompa> BeatBreaker82: gparted
[04:04] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: gparted
[04:05] <Geek__> BeatBreaker82: gparted

[04:05] <chx> hi. I know the hardware is capable of it -- how can I switch one of the cores of my Core Duo CPU?
[04:05] <BeatBreaker82> oompaloompa: that dosen't come with ubuntu does it?
[04:05] <chx> *switch off
[04:05] <oompaloompa> BeatBreaker82: no but easy to install off repo
[04:05] <Zylogue> BeatBreaker82, yes
[04:05] <BeatBreaker82> oompaloompa: i know how to install - i just may have over looked
[04:05] <Xanadu> " After the first timeout, the timeout is doubled after each successive timeout ..."
[04:05] <oompaloompa> is it in default packages?
[04:05] <larson9999> NET||abuse: mine was but you can create your own key mappings with it.  i only did that once but it was pretty easy.
[04:05] <BeatBreaker82> oompaloompa: cheers, i'll get it
[04:06] <Zylogue> Xanadu, is there a counter for how many timeouts it tires?
[04:06] <Zylogue> Xanadu, are you using autofs?  it is the automounter.  disable it, and then you can mount as needed...
[04:06] <BeatBreaker82> oompaloompa: done - thankx
[04:06] <NET||abuse> larson9999, hmm, trying to figure that one out.

I'm having problems in that while everything works great, and local transfers occur at obscene speeds, as do network reads, network writes to the RAID run *really* slowly.  The network is fine, it's just the moment it tries to write to the drives, they thrash like mad.  Seems NFS/Samba/et al are (presumably) writing in tiny chunks, creating huge numbers of parity rewrites.
[04:12] <iamplasma> Anyone had this before?
[04:13] <BeatBreaker82> cheers
[04:13] <erUSUL> oompaloompa: what file system type?
[04:13] <Xanadu> thanks Zylogue but that's mostly autofs stuff - trying to stay away from that for now but it's good info nonetheless
[04:13] <oompaloompa> erUSUL: ext3
[04:13] <Zylogue> iamplasma, yes...
[04:13] <[-NeMeSiS-] > alguien save espaol
[04:13] <iamplasma> Zylogue, ever come up with a solution?  Insane amounts of googling have got me nowhere
[04:13] <Zylogue> iamplasma, look into modifying your TCP/IP sizes
[04:14] <oompaloompa> erUSUL: or do i just need to make the mount point folder options appropriate?  would that do it?
[04:14] <amena> hi. I wonder if it is possible to change the password in terminal client from the shell
[04:14] <Zylogue> need to find that balance point between too large and too small...
[04:14] <erUSUL> oompaloompa: not possible you have to mount it normally and create folders inside which you then can give permisions as you like (the same as with a separate home partition).
[04:14] <Zylogue> also, make sure you are using good quality, managed switches for best network performance
[04:14] <Blauhaut> How can i see my ip adress
[04:15] <iamplasma> Zylogue, that doesn't seem to be the problem.  Tweaking the tcp buffers up or down makes no difference.  And in fact, the transfer runs at 100% speed for at least a few seconds before the RAID box tries to write to the disks, at which point everything goes to hell.  So it's in fact buffered *way* ahead, yet seems to still refuse to write full stripes
[04:15] <Zylogue> Blackgoth, sudo ifconfig
[04:15] <oompaloompa> erUSUL: so i can't the mount point in fstab as /media/movies and then create /media/movies as root and then make /media/movies readable/writable?
[04:15] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; how can i see my ip adress ?
[04:15] <erUSUL> oompaloompa: for example i have two partitions mounted in /mnt/ which i use for media files. in both i have folders like /Music/ /Movies/ etc which i have rw permisions
[04:16] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: ip a
[04:16] <benflasherbe> bonjour
[04:16] <mamoot> salut
[04:16] <[-NeMeSiS-] > hola
[04:16] <[-NeMeSiS-] > ?
[04:16] <benflasherbe> yep ^
[04:16] <benflasherbe> je suis nouveau
[04:16] <[-NeMeSiS-] > yo espaol
[04:16] <benflasherbe> debutant sous ubuntu
[04:17] <Zylogue> iamplasma, if the local copy process is working correctly, then the issue must be in your network/network configuration
[04:17] <erUSUL> !es | [-NeMeSiS-] 
[04:17] <ubotu> [-NeMeSiS-] : Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:17] <benflasherbe> moi, Breizh ^
[04:17] <[-NeMeSiS-] > gracias
[04:17] <kondeDrakul> anyone use mondo mindi?
[04:17] <iamplasma> yeah, it's definitely "somewhere" in the network half, since local copies are fine.  Just doesn't appear to be tcp related either... I honestly have no idea
[04:17] <erUSUL> [-NeMeSiS-] : no hay de que
[04:17] <[-NeMeSiS-] > (:))
[04:17] <iamplasma> since it's buffering huge amounts before trying to write to the disk
[04:18] <oompaloompa> erUSUL: well it's screaming that i don't have the privilege to mount the volume. . .obviously i don't want to have to mount the volume as root every time i logon, so how would i change the "owner" to *username* and have it mount automatically?
[04:18] <mamoot> qqun sous xgl ??
[04:18] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; that command just show my adsl modem dns adresses
[04:18] <relas> Hello, knew somebody something about the phyton-konsole from rhythmbox?
[04:18] <Zylogue> iamplasma, what about testing the sending machine?
[04:18] <Zylogue> try to identify WHICH machine is having the problem?  it may not be your server.
[04:18] <Blauhaut> How can i see my ip adress ?
[04:19] <iamplasma> sending machine is sending at far more than enough speed
[04:19] <Zylogue> !ifconfig
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:19] <iamplasma> and I have a raid 0 on the receiving box too, I can write by network to it at full speed
[04:19] <iamplasma> from the same sending box
[04:19] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: post the output of the command in a pastebin please
[04:19] <erUSUL> !paste | Blauhaut
[04:19] <ubotu> Blauhaut: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:19] <Zylogue> Blauhaut, have you got a network icon on the top bar?  right hand half?
[04:20] <iamplasma> identical samba/nfs configs
[04:20] <Ramunas> btw, is it possible to disable that network icon in the top bar?
[04:20] <Blauhaut> Zylogue; show me same ip with my modem conf ip
[04:20] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34303/
[04:21] <Zylogue> iamplasma, it is odd that your stripe would be so dramatically slower over the network than local, yet work at speed for the same files to the RAID0
[04:21] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; i am using eth1 wireless now
[04:21] <relas> Sorry, knew somebody something about the phyton-konsole from rhythmbox?
[04:21] <Meroigo> I have added smbfs mounts in /etc/fstab I want to mount on startup, but they don't... When I write "sudo mount -a", they all get mounted. But I don't want to write that in the terminal every time I have rebooted. =/
[04:21] <galpa> ubuntu-es
[04:22] <Meroigo> what to do?
[04:22] <oompaloompa> erUSUL: nvm i got it, and thanks
[04:22] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: inet 10.0.0.4 <<< This is your inet adress
[04:22] <iamplasma> well, the RAID0 you can write to without doing a parity check for a single-block write
[04:22] <erUSUL> oompaloompa: no problem
[04:22] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; so how can i see my ip adress ?
[04:22] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[04:22] <iamplasma> looking at my gkrellm windows, it appears that there is a lot of read activity.  Which strongly suggests samba and NFS are trying to write in small pieces to the RAID, rather than presenting a large write
[04:22] <Zylogue> Meroigo, http://www.howtoforge.com/accessing_windows_or_samba_shares_using_autofs
[04:23] <iamplasma> so instead of doing full stripes, it's writing a small part, then doing all the parity updates for that part, then another small part, and so on
[04:23] <iamplasma> while for RAID0 there are no parity updates, so that doesn't occur
[04:23] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: you mean the adress of your router the one people see from outside?
[04:23] <Zylogue> almost as though your caching is limited
[04:24] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; yes :)
[04:24] <oompaloompa> anybody know where to get .debs for symhpony's mezzo desktop?
[04:24] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: use some web service  or check the status page of your router
[04:24] <oompaloompa> the most recent symhpony is built on ubuntu
[04:24] <novato_br> Jack_Sparrow, on folder has only "README.txt" and on README come write: "For information about installing, running and configuring Sunbird
[04:24] <novato_br> including a list of known issues and troubleshooting information,
[04:24] <novato_br> refer to: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/"
[04:24] <oompaloompa> but their server is borken
[04:24] <Zylogue> Blauhaut, www.whatismyipaddress.com
[04:24] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: www.ip-adress.com/
[04:24] <Blauhaut> ok
[04:24] <iamplasma> Zylogue, that's what I thought at first, but there's clearly a lot of caching occurring, since it doesn't even start trying to write to the raid until after 50MB or so has actually gone over the network
[04:25] <DrFrasierCrane> hey, is it possible to apply Emerald theme without restarting Emerald ?
[04:25] <Zylogue> iamplasma, is this a Dell system with a PERC in it?
[04:25] <Blauhaut> Zylogue; and erUSUL thanks again :P
[04:25] <iamplasma> nope
[04:25] <iamplasma> PERC?
[04:25] <iamplasma> It is software RAID
[04:25] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: no problem
[04:26] <Zylogue> iamplasma, I work for Dell in US Server Support...PERC is the Dell Raid Controller
[04:26] <iamplasma> and it's running via PCI raid cards, so it's slow on that front, but given I can get ~100MB/s transfer speeds on the RAID 5 locally, I don't think they're the bottleneck
[04:26] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; i want to connect my other pc with telnet it is also using ubuntu 7.04
[04:26] <valemon> I 've got a problem with ubuntu studio
[04:26] <Zylogue> SoftRAID?  I have no experience there...but I have a couple of ideas to look into...give me a seconf...
[04:26] <Blauhaut> erUSUL; which packages do i need to setup to it ?
[04:26] <erUSUL> Blauhaut: telnet is way obsolete use ssh
[04:26] <erUSUL> !ssh | Blauhaut
[04:26] <ubotu> Blauhaut: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

[04:27] <valemon> I get this error message while trying to install
[04:27] <valemon> Your installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so you can insert it and try again.

[04:27] <mlk> how ubuntu server 6.06 adds new hardware (NIC) ? I can see it via lspci, but cant make it work (there is no such device eth3)
[04:28] <iamplasma> Zylogue, well, I'm quite confident the softraid isn't the problem though, given it works fine under other circumstances.  I'm quite convinced the problem lies in the interplay between smb/nfs and the RAID

[04:28] <amena> anybody knows how to reset the vino server password?
[04:28] <saxartist> Hi all, I read that ubuntu studio fixes the kernel problems that are keeping me from using Audacity to record, does anyone know if I can do some sort of upgrade without reinstalling?
[04:28] <Zylogue> iamplasma, there is no interplay between the md and the protocols
[04:28] <ToddEDM> there is a ton of settings for beryl, i was wondering if there is a way to import someones settings, so i dont need to screw with every setting
[04:28] <saxartist> I'll reinstall if I have to, but I don't want to
[04:29] <iamplasma> well, I know there isn't as such, but I mean in smb may be writing in a manner that just happens to really "disagree" with how raid5 likes to be written to
[04:29] <erUSUL> mlk: it should be detected automatically if there's a driver for it and appear as ethn. Take a look at the kernel boot log (dmesg | less)

[04:34] <oompaloompa> BeatBreaker82: gotta umount it, man
[04:35] <erUSUL> mlk: that's a very common and supported card... try this 'sudo modprobe 8139cp'
[04:35] <BeatBreaker82> oompaloompa: yeah i did that but i still don't have the option to resize

[04:51] <nojoints> oompalompa; there is no option with that showing
[04:51] <user__> @shackjack thx
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> seth457: To start fixing it you need make and model of your card and max res info for your monitor as well as h/v rates
[04:52] <oompaloompa> nojoints: aight hold on a minute
[04:52] <nojoints> oompaloompa; there is following: X Server Color correction, X Server XVideo Settings, Cursor Shadow, OpenGL Settings, OpenGL/GLX Information, Antialiasing Settings, Thermal Monitor, Display Devices, nvidia-settings configuration
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> seth457: Once you have that you can post your xorg.conf to the pastebin and someone will look it over.

[05:07] <nojoints> asy; you need to turn the computer off before you put in a new memory stick or remove memory sticks
[05:07] <uatever> can some1 help me here
[05:07] <oompaloompa> nojoints: lol lot of help i am
[05:07] <SeveredCross> Uh..
[05:07] <nojoints> oompaloompa; kk =p
[05:08] <asy> nojoints, Halt ?
[05:08] <SeveredCross> You shouldn't need to turn anything off before inserting external media.
[05:08] <uatever> im having some connection problems its nor working at 100% and its not isp
[05:08] <SeveredCross> I've inserted SD cards into my laptop's card reader and they just pop right up.
[05:08] <SeveredCross> HAL detects them.
[05:08] <apples_> I'm using Feisty Fawn, and Have two hard drives connected, both 40 gig. yesterday, my second drive stoped mounting, after a power failure. can someone tell me how to fix this soon. important documents are on the second hd
[05:08] <SeveredCross> apples_: Is it in /etc/fstab?
[05:08] <SeveredCross> Do you have any error messages from sudo mount -a?
[05:08] <apples_> hold on a sec
[05:09] <nojoints> asy; doesn't matter how you turn off your computer as long as you don't plug the cable out to turn it off, pull the power cable out when you've shutted down the computer and then put the new memory stick in and boot up the computer
[05:09] <SeveredCross> Unless we're talking RAM.
[05:09] <Jaydoggg> Anyone, i'm trying to get my wireless NIC working in ubuntu 5.04 it uses atheros drivers
[05:09] <SeveredCross> If it's RAM, then unplug the goddamn thing.
[05:09] <SeveredCross> Jaydoggg: 5.04
[05:09] <SeveredCross> ?
[05:09] <oompaloompa> LMAO
[05:09] <SeveredCross> I certainly hope you mean 7.04
[05:09] <oompaloompa> again
[05:09] <Jaydoggg> SeveredCross ya, that the version of ubuntu
[05:09] <oompaloompa> heh
[05:10] <SeveredCross> TBH, I'm not really knowledgeable on Atheros.
[05:10] <Jaydoggg> SeveredCross: I couldnt get fiesty to install on this old laptop
[05:10] <nojoints> oompaloompa; do you know which you've got checked when you installed your gfx card?
[05:10] <SeveredCross> I was just flabbergasted at your 5.04
[05:10] <oompaloompa> nojoints: just a sec. . .
[05:11] <oompaloompa> u got nvidia, right?
[05:11] <ganu> I have ati radeon xpress x200 chipset...where can i get the driver for this..
[05:11] <SeveredCross> ganu: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx should work.
[05:11] <SeveredCross> Then after that's finished installing, sudo aticonfig --initial --overlay-type=Xv
[05:11] <oompaloompa> ganu; use synaptic and install fglrx
[05:11] <oompaloompa> beat me lol
[05:12] <Jaydoggg> Some people report this wireless card works out of the box in Fiesty but i'll need to manually install drivers for this card I guess...where to start?
[05:12] <jacob> does anybody know how to creat a shortcut for a wine program?
[05:12] <misthupper> hello there, can i ask a question about the live-cd?
[05:12] <LasT_SuRvivoR> no you cant lol
[05:12] <Jaydoggg> misthupper: just ask
[05:12] <Jaydoggg> dont ask to ask
[05:12] <oompaloompa> jacob: just make a link to the executable, then in the properties, make it open with "wine"
[05:12] <ganu> oompaloompa: i m new to linux..what is synaptic??
[05:12] <uatever> are most 775 asrock boards fully supported?
[05:13] <oompaloompa> ganu: the package manager
[05:13] <nojoints> oompaloompa; found the problem, it was nvidia-glx that was supposed to be installed not nvidia-settings
[05:13] <Enselic> !synaptic | ganu
[05:13] <apples_> SeveredCross: I'm looking at fstab right now, and it shows 2 hda's.
[05:13] <ubotu> ganu: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[05:13] <apples_> SeveredCross: is that what you mean?
[05:13] <oompaloompa> nojoints: oh i assumed u already had ur driver installed lmao my bust
[05:13] <SeveredCross> Well...
[05:13] <misthupper> i have an old k6-450 and the live cd boots, but i have no keyboard or mouse? (the board have old ps2/din)
[05:13] <SeveredCross> If you have two hard drives, you should see /hda and /hdb probably.
[05:13] <oompaloompa> once that is enabled u can use nvidia-settings to set up serparate screens
[05:13] <Jaydoggg> Enselic: quick on the bot bro :-)
[05:13] <nojoints> oompaloompa; np, thanks for the help although =P
[05:13] <apples_> SeveredCross: i see hda1 and hda5
[05:13] <SeveredCross> Okay then.
[05:13] <jacob> oompaloompa, can you teach me how?
[05:14] <SeveredCross> Your second hard drive won't mount because any entries for it are not in fstab.
[05:14] <Enselic> Jaydoggg: ya :)
[05:14] <SeveredCross> !ntfs
[05:14] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:14] <ganu> thanks..
[05:14] <asy> halt no work my memory Stick duo
[05:14] <oompaloompa> jacob: ok browse to the windows program
[05:14] <apples_> SeveredCross: so then how do add an entry?
[05:14] <SeveredCross> apples_: one sec, please.
[05:15] <jacob> oompaloompa ok done
[05:15] <jetscreamer> misthupper: google knoppix cheat codes and try some on the boot: line
[05:15] <SeveredCross> I think there's a script at that page that will create fstab entries for nearly all your drives.
[05:15] <oompaloompa> jacob: right clisk on it and go to 'properties' there's a tab on the top that ways 'open with'
[05:15] <fq1> 11
[05:16] <jacob> oompaloompa there are no properties, maybe i didn't browse the windows program properly
[05:16] <SeveredCross> apples_: What type of partitions do you have on the other disk?
[05:16] <atoms2> hi, whats the program that show computer statistics on the desktop?
[05:16] <SeveredCross> NTFS, FAT32, Ext2/Ext3?
[05:16] <misthupper> @jetcreamer sry, i don't understand - can i give some boot-parameters to fix the problem?
[05:16] <oompaloompa> jacob: well it will be *program*.exe
[05:16] <oompaloompa> jacob: wherever u have it installed to
[05:16] <SeveredCross> atoms2: gkrellm?
[05:17] <apples_> SeveredCross: what page? and jfs.  also on the hda1 i have this at the end: "errors=remount-ro 0       1"
[05:17] <SeveredCross> JFS. Okay.
[05:17] <jacob> oompaloompa i go to "wine file" and i browsed to the file
[05:17] <SeveredCross> Well.
[05:17] <SeveredCross> apples_: First, figure out the partition numbers.
[05:17] <atoms2> ServeredCross, that's it. thanks
[05:17] <SeveredCross> Type sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb (hdb is the 2nd hard drive)
[05:17] <Zylogue> I'm needing some help with nvidia drivers...
[05:17] <jacob> oopaloompa i got Stampw.exe
[05:17] <oompaloompa> jacob: no i mean browse to it in your normal file manager
[05:17] <Zylogue> I don't know which to install or how to get with apt...
[05:18] <SeveredCross> It should tell you the partition numbers (eg. /dev/hdb1, /dev/hdb2, etc.) and the partition type.
[05:18] <atoms2> SeveredCross, thanks
[05:18] <Zylogue> online docs state should already be installed as restricted, but not.
[05:18] <oompaloompa> jacob: open your home folder
[05:18] <jacob> oompaloompa ok, i'm in the properties
[05:18] <SeveredCross> Once you know the partition number, add it to fstab--follow the layout that the other entries have.
[05:18] <oompaloompa> jacob: u see open with?
[05:18] <SeveredCross> Eg. you should have something like:
[05:18] <apples_> in a consol i assume?
[05:18] <jacob> oompaloompa yes
[05:19] <SeveredCross> Yes apples_.
[05:19] <oompaloompa> jacob: is there an 'add' button
[05:19] <cyberphaz> hmm with ati i can only have 2 monitors connected or 1 monitor and svideo...anyone know if nvidia supports to use all 3 outputs?
[05:19] <Rabbitbunny> So... when network install says 50m30s remaining... is it serious?
[05:19] <jacob> oompaloompa ok go on
[05:19] <SeveredCross> /dev/sdbX /media/my_jfs_partition jfs noatime,user,rw 0 0
[05:19] <SeveredCross> Replace sdb with hdb for you.
[05:19] <rockay> hi, serious noob here that needs help
[05:19] <SeveredCross> And X is the partition number (1,2,7,etc.)
[05:20] <jacob> oompaloompa what now?
[05:20] <oompaloompa> jacob click that, hit the little arrow at the bottom that says choose custom command or something like that and just type in wine
[05:20] <apples_> SeveredCross:ok..... this is kinda confusing.
[05:20] <SeveredCross> That'll mount your jfs partition at /media/my_jfs_partition, with the noatime,user, and rw flags--noatime makes the kernel not update access times (this speeds up disk performance generally), user so that all users can mount it and rw so it's readwrite/
[05:20] <SeveredCross> apples_?
[05:20] <jacob> oompaloompa: click "Add"?
[05:20] <oompaloompa> jacob yeah in the open with tab
[05:20] <mattwj2005> Good day everyone
[05:21] <rockay> I installed ubuntu using the alternate cd and it installed just fine, but it won't boot
[05:21] <oompaloompa> good day to you
[05:21] <mattwj2005> I was wondering if I could get some kind assistance
[05:21] <apples_> SeveredCross: fstab is read only...
[05:21] <mattwj2005> I have a simple question
[05:21] <oompaloompa> jacob u got that?
[05:21] <nathalie> Hello
[05:21] <SeveredCross> Edit it with sudo nano or gksu gedit
[05:21] <rockay> I think it's cuz of my video card, ATI Radeon 7200 R100
[05:21] <mattwj2005> when you do an Ubuntu install
[05:21] <rockay> which isn't linux compatible
[05:21] <apples_> umm.. how do i do that?
[05:21] <jacob> oompaloompa, close the property dialog box?
[05:21] <mattwj2005> what happens when you don't select any language you selection no location I believe it is called
[05:21] <SeveredCross> From Nautilus: Press Alt-F2, then type gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[05:22] <SeveredCross> Why are you using a JFS partition anyway?
[05:22] <oompaloompa> jacob u put in to open with custom command wine?
[05:22] <mattwj2005> does that give you a ton of languages?
[05:22] <SeveredCross> To be totally honest, I'd expect someone who was using JFS to be well...a bit more knowledgeable.
[05:22] <jacob> oompaloompa yes
[05:22] <nathalie> Hi, anyone here who can help me get my mic working on an ASUS A8N-VM motherboard?
[05:22] <j85wilson> mad-sibyl: prophesy
[05:22] <mad-sibyl> he ask for truth
[05:22] <apples_> SeveredCross:i am, but i'm used to bash. and it's from my previous linux installation, ark
[05:22] <oompaloompa> jacob ok yes close property box, right click on the windows executable's icon and click 'Make link"
[05:23] <SeveredCross> The commandline is bash...
[05:23] <oompaloompa> jacob then just paste that link into whatever place u want it to be in
[05:23] <oompaloompa> jacob after this point it's not my fault if the prog doesn't work, wine is definitely not perfect
[05:23] <apples_> SeveredCross: i
[05:23] <bruenig> graphical symlink instruction, hmmmm
[05:23] <oompaloompa> lmao
[05:23] <apples_> SeveredCross i've never had to put in a sudo before =P
[05:23] <bruenig> ln -s too hard?
[05:23] <jacob> oompaloompa ok i got it, thanks a lot oompaloompa
[05:24] <SeveredCross> If you're unfamiliar, you can do sudo -s and get a root prompt.
[05:24] <nathalie> Hi, anyone here who can help me get my mic working on an ASUS A8N-VM motherboard?
[05:24] <jacob> oompaloompa i got that thx
[05:24] <oompaloompa> jacob ur welcom
[05:24] <bruenig> !repeat | nathalie

[05:24] <mattwj2005> I think it would be cool to switch between English and Swedish :)

[05:24] <apples_> SeveredCross: mk
[05:24] <mattwj2005> as far as the GUI
[05:24] <kidbuntu> will i be able to install nvidia drivers correctly and automatically by using just the automix?
[05:25] <bruenig> !automatix | kidbuntu don't do that
[05:25] <ubotu> kidbuntu don't do that: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[05:25] <oompaloompa> bruenig: no not too hard just thought i'd keep him in the tradition of the gui lol
[05:25] <charlie__> does anyone know how to view shockwave appa
[05:25] <bruenig> charlie__, have to use wine

[05:27] <jacob> oompaloompa i would like to post the error in the ubuntu post site, can you send me the link if you know what i'm talking about
[05:27] <gazton> do i need to install a OS to run a win32 app with wine or can i just run a single Win32 program with wine??

[05:35] <jacob> oopaloompa ....enabled
[05:36] <oompaloompa> jacob what prog are u trying to run?
[05:36] <jacob> oopaloompa when i run the application from wine file it buttons are enabled from the "tip of the day" dialoge box
[05:36] <charlie__> apples_>think i figured it out, thank you
[05:36] <jacob> oompaloompa i'm trying to run PBASIC Stamp Editor
[05:37] <oompaloompa> jacob i'm not familiar with it. . .and i dunno why it would run differently with the link and not through wine file. . .
[05:37] <jurgentje> Hey... can someone tell me how to remove Windows in a decent way? (so get it out of grub... and how to format my C:\-drive ... but it's also my boot partition)
[05:37] <ads_> yo anyone know how to find out what chipset my wireless adapter is within ubutnu? cheers
[05:37] <strauss1912> hello
[05:37] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: to get it outta grub just edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and take out the windows stanza
[05:37] <strauss1912> how i can kde install by ubuntu ?
[05:37] <jacob> oompaloompa pardon, you said you do know or don't know
[05:38] <grunty> ads_ try lspci
[05:38] <oompaloompa> jacob i do not
[05:38] <jacob> oompaloompa ok
[05:38] <CluelessFred> hi, everybody
[05:38] <ads_> grunty , ok
[05:38] <strauss1912> how i can kde install by ubuntu ?
[05:38] <Rabbitbunny> strauss1912: kubuntu
[05:38] <elkbuntu> oompaloompa, you mean comment out, not take out, right?
[05:38] <jurgentje> oompaloompa: that's the easy part... but if I format my drive... won't I get in trouble?
[05:38] <oompaloompa> jacob sorry dude all i can tell u is try to tweak the settings through wincfg until u find a setup that works. . .
[05:38] <kaveh> hi all
[05:39] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: not if u just format the partition that 'dows is on
[05:39] <jacob> oompaloompa i think i got it
[05:39] <kaveh> any one can direct me with wifi
[05:39] <kidbuntu> where can i find this. I'm not following with this one. cant find it "system settings -> monitor & display -> Hardware" is there another name for it
[05:39] <CluelessFred> i'm trying to set up DNS services on an Ubuntu box, have it loaded as a server, got KDE installed, intalled and set up firestarter - but I'm having a difficult time with DNS.  Specifically, does somebody have a nameserver recommendation?  I'm having an incredibly difficult time with BIND.
[05:39] <jacob> oompaloompa i can copy and paste the "Tip of the Day" file (which is saved in a text editor) and paste it in the same directory of the link
[05:39] <jacob> oompaloompa i'm going to try that
[05:39] <kaveh> i can see my acess point
[05:39] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: 'cause grub just points to a different partition when u select "ubuntu" or whatever, anyway, it should be independent of that windows partition
[05:39] <kaz> does anyone know how to back up my Ubuntu drive?  I also have a windows partition
[05:39] <strauss1912> Rabbitbunny: thats right ! but - i have install ubuntu and i want to install kde and gnome !!! but how ?
[05:40] <DShepherd> kaveh, lspci | grep -i network #that may work
[05:40] <hispazo> can someone say me if compiz-fusion works with ati propietary driver (installed by envy)
[05:40] <kaz> or can someone tell me how I can make windows smaller and ubuntu larger?
[05:40] <rsk> dont use envy...
[05:40] <jacob> oompaloompa the program also runs slower than ussual
[05:40] <Rabbitbunny> strauss1912: I have no idea. I'm still working on my first install.
[05:40] <Miss_Mioumiou> hello
[05:40] <oompaloompa> hispazo: i've used beryl with ati driver, i dunno about compiz-fusion tho. . .
[05:40] <jurgentje> oompaloompa: yeah, but then my assumption is wrong that my primary drive on my primary IDE has the bootup sequence... (and by erasing it, I'll also take off Grub or whatever starts up the initial system)
[05:41] <Miss_Mioumiou> humm
[05:41] <DShepherd> hispazo, the guys in #compiz-fusion would know alot about compiz compatibility with ATI
[05:41] <jacob> oompaloompa, it worked
[05:41] <ads_> grunty , if i install the incorrect driver for my wireless adapter how would i go about installing the default one that is set by ubuntu during install? i made the mistake of installing the wrong one last time and didn't know how to rollback the driver so i reinstalled lol
[05:41] <strauss1912> ok - i am away#
[05:41] <jacob> oompaloompa , thx for your help
[05:41] <hispazo> ok thankd
[05:41] <strauss1912> cucu
[05:41] <zombie_monkey> when I remove a module with rmmod it's only until I reboot, I have to blacklist it otherwise, right?
[05:41] <oompaloompa> jacob cool
[05:41] <kaveh> DShepherd, yeah it shows it , i installed the drivers , it shows the signal and every thing i just need to connect to it
[05:41] <Miss_Mioumiou> Hello
[05:41] <lukealpha> i have fesity 64 and compiz fusion wont work
[05:41] <Jupiler> hi there. i am installing the server edition of ubuntu but it has been on the same screen for ages select and install software retreiving software 63 of 64
[05:41] <kaz> hello Miss
[05:41] <DShepherd> kaveh, ok.
[05:41] <jacob> oompaloompa, sometimes the program request files from other directories and so you just need to paste that in the same directory as the one in the link, remember that
[05:41] <Jupiler> i have a 20mbit connection so it shouldnt take this long
[05:41] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: didn't u install grub to the master boot record? if u did, you can completely hose the partitions on that drive, and as long as u don't touch the mbr, it'll still work
[05:42] <jacob> oompaloompa, you got that?
[05:42] <grunty> ads_, if you know the module name try modprobe -v -r $namehere
[05:42] <oompaloompa> jacob no problem dude, glad to hear u got it working :-D
[05:42] <lukealpha> can somebod help  me ?
[05:42] <DShepherd> !wifi | kaveh
[05:42] <ubotu> kaveh: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:42] <ads_> grunty, i don't know the module name lol
[05:42] <jurgentje> oompaloompa: well... isn't the MBR part of that drive? (I started with ubuntu as a trying out...)
[05:43] <kaveh> DShepherd, oh  went through this n times
[05:43] <grunty> ads_, which driver did you install
[05:43] <DShepherd> lukealpha, ask in #compiz-fusion
[05:43] <oompaloompa> yes the MBR *is* part of that drive
[05:43] <jacob> oompaloompa, ok got to go, thx a lot, although there was a different method my friends uses by writing a script. but thx anyways, i'll use it this way
[05:43] <lukealpha>  ahhh ok
[05:43] <ads_> grunty, rtl8187 (realtek)
[05:43] <DShepherd> kaveh, not sure if i can help you then. what are you trying to connect to?
[05:43] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: but think of it as a special little partition that nothing will touch unless u tell it to, explicitly
[05:43] <McLovin> how do you compile sircoxalotzv1.23.44k?
[05:43] <lukealpha> can ubuntu run on 800 mhz
[05:43] <kaveh> DShepherd, my access point
[05:43] <McLovin> lukealpha yes
[05:43] <DShepherd> lukealpha, you should be..
[05:43] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: u can safely partition the whole drive with gparted and the mbr will still be whole
[05:43] <McLovin> how do you compile sircoxalotzv1.23.44k?
[05:44] <lukealpha> i tried on my ppc
[05:44] <lukealpha> and it wont let me
[05:44] <monkeyBox> How do I enable mod-rewrite in apache2 for ubuntu?  I'm getting "Invalid commend: RewriteEngine"
[05:44] <DShepherd> kaveh, so you can see it but cant connect to it?
[05:44] <jurgentje> oompaloompa: ah, okay, thanks. I'll be trying it this evening...
[05:44] <oompaloompa> jurgentje: cool
[05:44] <McLovin> how do you compile sircoxalotzv1.23.44k?
[05:44] <kaveh> DShepherd, yes
[05:44] <jurgentje> (and if it fails, I'll fetch the old IRC trout and slap you with it) ;)
[05:44] <bjames> my cat walked over my keyboard and it stopped working properly so I had to restart x - I lost an unsaved openoffice document, is there any chance it will be autosaved somewhere?
[05:44] <grunty> ads_, did you build it from source?
[05:44] <McLovin> bjames no
[05:44] <McLovin> how do you compile sircoxalotzv1.23.44k?
[05:44] <McLovin> how do you compile sircoxalotzv1.23.44k?
[05:45] <CluelessFred> Any DNS experts out there?
[05:45] <DShepherd> kaveh, maybe it has something to do with the protocol.. again.. its not my thing :-) wifi i mean. So I am not sure
[05:45] <kaveh> DShepherd, and it even shows signal and every thing, but my local ip is 0.0.0.0
[05:45] <McLovin> CluelessFred me
[05:45] <bjames> never mind - I found the autosave
[05:45] <ads_> grunty, yes i did i just followed some instructions on a webpage and used the "make" command
[05:45] <CluelessFred> McLovin - I'm trying to select and install a DNS server, but having a difficult time.
[05:45] <cmajog> hi all
[05:45] <DShepherd> kaveh, have you checked out the ubuntuforums?
[05:45] <jurgentje> CluelessFred: try asking your Q in here... possibly someone's enough expert to know the answer, but doesn't consider him/herself an expert
[05:45] <grunty> well in the same directory where you built it tey "make uninstall"
[05:45] <McLovin> CluelessFred just install the standard dns server that comes withubunto
[05:45] <CluelessFred> i've tried BIND (and a few others), but I can't find a GUI for them.
[05:45] <grunty> ads_, well in the same directory where you built it tey "make uninstall"
[05:46] <CluelessFred> AAAAAAA, which one is the "standard dns server?"
[05:46] <cmajog> does anyone know how to share files with a xbox360 with ubuntu
[05:46] <ads_> grunty, if i uninstall will it replace with my old driver though?
[05:46] <kaveh> DShepherd, yeah that is how i got it work
[05:46] <McLovin> CluelessFred just apt-get install dns
[05:46] <CluelessFred> lemme try it, McLovin.  thank you.
[05:46] <McLovin> :)
[05:46] <cmajog> does anyone know how to share files with a xbox360 with ubuntu
[05:46] <cox377> hey all
[05:46] <DShepherd> kaveh, ok,, well srry but i cant help
[05:46] <McLovin> CluelessFred after that read the man file and it explained everything
[05:46] <srbaker> folks
[05:46] <CluelessFred> McLovin:  and how do I configure - via CLI, or GUI?
[05:47] <cox377> what would be the most basic way, by command like to resize a whole directory of images?
[05:47] <McLovin> well gui i dunno...i dont use much gui's
[05:47] <grunty> ads_, erm well it depends what driver your card needs if it is def. the wrong one it *should* have no effect
[05:47] <McLovin> CluelessFred its as easy as editing a config file
[05:47] <McLovin> CluelessFred you shouldnt have a hard time with it
[05:47] <srbaker> i need a template for business cards.  specifically, avery 05371
[05:47] <Jack_Sparrow> cox377: I wrote one for Windows but I have not looked for a prog in Ubuntu to do it.
[05:47] <srbaker> anyone know if any of the software has templates for this stuff included?
[05:48] <cox377> Jack_Sparrow: :s - basically, i've got a whole load of pictures sitting here in a directory - wanna convert the lot
[05:48] <CluelessFred> McLovin:  "E:  Couldn't find package dns"
[05:48] <Pici> srbaker: I think glabels does
[05:48] <CluelessFred> (using sudo apt-get install dns)
[05:48] <McLovin> CluelessFred hold on let me find its name
[05:48] <McLovin> give me just a minute
[05:48] <McLovin> i cant remember the full name of the package
[05:48] <jacob> oompaloompa, the program runs but other files are nessacery, so help files or libraries are required so the way we didn't does work, i'll ask my friend to write me another script, but thx for your help
[05:48] <acke> hey can someone give me a good command to move everything from one usbdrive to another? checking what files are complete and doesnt have to be moved and completing the uncompleted files.
[05:48] <CluelessFred> McLovin no problem
[05:49] <Jack_Sparrow> cox377: I understand what you want to do, I just had not had the need to do it in Ubuntu.. yet.
[05:49] <ads_> grunty, ok but one last thing, is there a way i can get ubuntu to install a "recommened" driver itself?
[05:49] <barbie19> hi! i wanna start my computer in init runlevel 3...
[05:49] <McLovin> CluelessFred join #mclovin so its easier to help you
[05:49] <Pici> acke: look into rsync
[05:49] <srbaker> thxc
[05:49] <srbaker> thx
[05:49] <oompaloompa> jacob cool, man
[05:49] <acke> pici thankls
[05:49] <Jack_Sparrow> cox377: I would think gimp or maybe gthumb
[05:50] <oompaloompa> jacob try right clickin on the desktop or panel and choosing 'create launcher' then type for the command wine *program name*
[05:50] <jacob> oompaloompa give me a secf
[05:50] <grunty> ads_, well if the driver isnt inculded in the linux kernel tree then in short no, you will have to download and compile it yourself (if available) whats your chip-set?
[05:50] <oompaloompa> u might have to use the full path to the program
[05:51] <alesan> hi how do I get which package includes a particular file?
[05:51] <ads_> grunty, it just shows up as rtl8111 when i do lspci
[05:51] <jacob> oompaloompa, i got something better, i found the script my friend made, i had a back-up copy somewhere
[05:51] <oompaloompa> cool, man
[05:51] <oompaloompa> good luck
[05:51] <jacob> oompaloompa send me the post site so i can send you the code of the script
[05:52] <jacob> oompaloompa so you can use it as a guide if you want to create shortcuts as well
[05:52] <oompaloompa> nah i'm ok man
[05:52] <Johbuntu> Hi All. Ill try and keep this question as un-verbose as possible:
[05:53] <Pici> alesan: search on packages.ubuntu.com
[05:53] <xubu> is there a way to edit compiz plugin settings through text? for some reason the comfig manager isnt displaying the hotkey settings propperly, so i cant set them
[05:53] <jacob> oompaloompa, check this out
[05:53] <jacob> oompaloompa http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34311/
[05:53] <amena> anybody knows how to reset the vino server password (terminal server)?
[05:54] <barbie19> i want to start my system in init runlevel 3, where to specify this?
[05:54] <kaveh> Pici, hi
[05:54] <kaveh> Pici, i made my wlan0 work but it did not cnnect to it
[05:54] <lerio> where can i find a channel for a help about a scam job offers in europe
[05:54] <jacob> oompaloompa, to make this work, i believe you just open gedit and paste that script there and it should work if you give it a .sh file extension
[05:54] <kaveh> Pici, i see my access point ,but can not connect to tit
[05:54] <oompaloompa> right
[05:54] <logreeval> What is the place that sells computer WITH Ubuntu on them?
[05:54] <grunty> ads_, seems its not inc in the tree you will have to download http://tinyurl.com/la9ey and make the driver
[05:54] <jacob> oompaloompa, you understand?
[05:55] <logreeval> NOT dell...
[05:55] <thedash> I want a decent Linux port of Winamp 5 :(
[05:55] <Pici> kaveh: I dont know how to get that to work beyond anything we spoke about last night
[05:55] <ads_> grunty, ok thanks a bunch
[05:55] <grunty> ads_, np
[05:55] <barbie19> thedash: try xmms
[05:55] <barbie19> then apply winamp 5 skin
[05:55] <kaveh> Pici, do u know where can i ask?
[05:55] <oompaloompa> jacob Exec=wine '/home/your name/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Program/program.exe' would be the same as making a launcher with the command wine *path to program* as i said
[05:55] <Pici> kaveh: Here... Ubuntu forums...
[05:56] <thedash> barbie19 :: xmms is winamp 2, it lacks several of the features that I was desiring
[05:56] <ganu> how to install rpm??
[05:56] <staing> does anybody know how to get feisty to suspend when you shut the lid
[05:56] <jacob> oompaloompa, mmm
[05:56] <kaveh> thanks pici
[05:56] <staing> on a dell e1505
[05:56] <staing> I'm a newbie
[05:56] <barbie19> what r u desiring? oompaloompa said it very correctly, wine officially support winamp
[05:56] <nojoints> oompaloompa; you here?
[05:56] <barbie19> ganu: rpm -ivh <rpm>
[05:57] <oompaloompa> ganu: in terminal rpm -ivh <name of rpm>
[05:57] <oompaloompa> oops beat me lol
[05:57] <Johbuntu> When I boot in recovery mode, fsck wants to check disk 'sdd1', which is an ntfs-3g partition and naturally fails. My fstab is correct. The strange thing is, booting normally works just fine. I'm wondering where recovery mode gets the idea that fscking the windows partition should be done.
[05:57] <Pici> ganu: nono... Ubuntu doesnt use rpm as its packaging system.
[05:57] <xp_guy> first time linux user, im trying to setup my xsever
[05:57] <Pici> !rpm | ganu
[05:57] <ubotu> ganu: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[05:57] <astro76> !rpm | ganu
[05:57] <oompaloompa> oh lol
[05:57] <nojoints> oompaloompa: got a problem with the nvidia settings =p
[05:58] <oompaloompa> i didn't even think of that lol
[05:58] <Pici> ganu: Try to find a .deb if its at all possible.
[05:58] <oompaloompa> nojoints: what's up dude?
[05:58] <oompaloompa> alien works pretty good most of the time
[05:58] <nojoints> oompaloompa; when I change anything in nvidia-settings it can't save a backup file it seems and nothing changes in xorg.conf
[05:58] <oompaloompa> nojoints: ah run it as root and that should take care of it
[05:59] <xp_guy> how do i get my mpact video card to work
[05:59] <Aval0n_> I am running ubuntu 7.04 with a nvidia 7300gs, I run HDMI out to my HP-s5053 samsung plasma. I've tried making several modelines for 1360x768, but it ALWAYS defaults to 1280x720.  My set is capable of 1366x768.  I would be find with 1280x720 except it's cutting off the top and bottom of the picture. Can anyone help?
[05:59] <oompaloompa> or specify a different file to save to
[05:59] <barbie19> how can i specify my system to boot in text mode???
[05:59] <oompaloompa> nojoints: and then sudo cp yourfile /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:59] <logreeval> anyone?...
[05:59] <staing> hi
[05:59] <oompaloompa> nojoints: u get that?
[06:00] <nojoints> oompaloompa; ran sudo nvidia-settings instead seems to be saving backup file now
[06:00] <logreeval> I want to buy a preloaded ubuntu computer....
[06:00] <oompaloompa> nojoints: i'd recommend saving it as something else and then cross-referencing the new config with the one you're about to replace, in case nvidia-settings borked somethin'

Dpkg is not working properly now. it complains "parse error in file  /var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 8932:  field name `idtune' must be followed by colon.     Can i reinstall dpkg through apt ?
[06:23] <SleepyHare> No ideas about VNC, anyone?
[06:23] <oompaloompa> neol u can keep the old one to fall back on in case something goes weird

[06:24] <oompaloompa> neol as long as u have *a* working kernel, u can remove all the other ones and be just fine
[06:24] <nRkiSt> are there any sopcast users here? I'm getting audio but no video.
[06:24] <oompaloompa> neol but it's nice to have a just-in-case

[06:24] <neol> oompaloompa, ok fine keepin it.
[06:25] <SleepyHare> zorze, Is there a way to make VNC server (vino) run a script when a user connects, and another script on disconnection?
[06:25] <neol> what does this entry in xorg.conf file do <Section "Extensions"
[06:25] <neol>         Option "Composite" "Enable" >
[06:25] <oompaloompa> logreeval: very nice
[06:25] <oompaloompa> lol
[06:25] <attunix> Does "sudo aptitude install" require internet? Or is it just "sudo apt-get install" that needs it?
[06:25] <Pici> attunix: They both need it.
[06:25] <Ahadiel> attunix, They both do the same thing.
[06:25] <Pici> attunix: aptitude is just another program to use the apt system
[06:25] <attunix> Pici: ok. Thanks
[06:25] <Yo_> can someone please help me installing ubuntu ... i installed a couple of times and all i get is " error loading system " any idea whats wrong ? i did create the swap partition and also the ext3 with the mount point " / " is there anything i might do wrong ?
[06:25] <attunix> ok
[06:25] <zorze> sleepyhare- hmm,i have never used that partucular client before
[06:25] <logreeval> oompaloompa: pretty neat, eh?
[06:26] <oompaloompa> yeah i'm digging that little mini thing
[06:26] <c01100011> is      sudo apt-get remove dpkg & apt-get install dpkg     a bad idea ?
[06:26] <logreeval> oompaloompa: they are pretty affordable as well
[06:26] <oompaloompa> screams media center at me lol
[06:26] <neol> can someone tell me what is this entry used in xorg.conf file <Section "Extensions"
[06:26] <neol>         Option "Composite" "Enable" >
[06:26] <esra_>  yaa trke bilen yokmu aranzdaa??
[06:26] <Pici> c01100011: probably.
[06:26] <amena> I have a problem. I need to login to gnome remotely. any way to do it?
[06:26] <SleepyHare> zorze, what client? Vino is the default VNC server in Ubuntu, isn`t it?
[06:26] <erUSUL> amena: use vnc
[06:26] <Pici> !tr | esra_
[06:26] <ubotu> esra_: Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[06:26] <erUSUL> !vnc | amena
[06:26] <ubotu> amena: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[06:27] <c01100011> Pici, is there a better way to repair dpkg after fsck borked it while removing bad sectors ?
[06:27] <zorze> sleepyhare- i guess, most of my vnc experience is on winblows
[06:27] <amena> erUSUL: I tried but it does not seem to be enabled while in GDM
[06:27] <Yo_> can someone please help me installing ubuntu ... i installed a couple of times and all i get is " error loading system " any idea whats wrong ? i did create the swap partition and also the ext3 with the mount point " / " is there anything i might do wrong ?
[06:27] <Pici> c01100011: You could try reinstalling it
[06:27] <c01100011> can't reinstall it through apt without removing it
[06:27] <erUSUL> amena: you can try opennx or X directly
[06:28] <melsedir> i have a problem in both ubuntu and xubuntu.. after a while both mouse and kboard stop working. i think all programs are running fine (i cant interact with them to see) as i mpd are still playing music, files still downloading. any ideas?
[06:28] <amena> erUSUL: any helpfull pages or keywords to search?
[06:28] <SleepyHare> zorze, Anyway.. Another question. Have you tried connecting to Ubuntu with UltraVNC?
[06:28] <Pici> c01100011: I'm not sure then...
[06:28] <amena> erUSUL: I am not at that computer, but I have a ssh session right now
[06:28] <apples1> o...k
[06:29] <apples1> I'm back to the drawing board.
[06:29] <steph_16th> hi, anyone knows what package has to be install so I can have sound output? (I made a big cleanup yesterday)
[06:29] <Yo_> can someone please help me installing ubuntu ... i installed a couple of times and all i get is " error loading system " any idea whats wrong ? i did create the swap partition and also the ext3 with the mount point " / " is there anything i might do wrong ?
[06:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo_: Are you running a raid setup or multiple drives... are you installing from livecd?
[06:29] <zorze> sleepyhare- i could probably answer questions related to vnc itself, but my knowledge of how ubunto implements is limited
[06:29] <apples1> because the fstab editing i did a few minutes ago left my computer vastly unresponsive, untill i deleted the hdb2 entry.
[06:30] <Yo_> Jack_Sparrow from live cd yes   and yes i dod have multiple drivers
[06:30] <erUSUL> amena: http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/08/24/Ubuntu-Enabling-remote-Xwindows
[06:30] <nojoints> oompaloompa; ok got following things that becomes strange after changing the x server display configuration:::: My keyboard becomes american instead of my home country, terminals are not writeable and they are all white and I can't see any text and my second monitor works very slowly
[06:30] <amena> thanks erUSUL!
[06:31] <erUSUL> amena: no problem
[06:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo_: You need to make sure you are installing grub into the mbr of the boot drive
[06:31] <Yo_> Jack_Sparrow>
[06:31] <oompaloompa> nojoints: do glxinfo | grep direct
[06:31] <Yo_> Jack_Sparrow and how will i make sure ? it doesnt ask me anything
[06:31] <SleepyHare> zorze, Oh, ok then.. My questions are not particularly about the VNC protocol. It`s just that for some reason I`m having problems with UltraVNC, whereas all works fine with TightVNC and RealVNC, connecting to Ubuntu that is.
[06:31] <oompaloompa> nojoints: and post me ur xorg.conf
[06:32] <apples1> oompaloompa: can you help me set up the second hd on my system.
[06:32] <apples1> ?
[06:32] <oompaloompa> nojoints: u did this with nvidia-settings right?
[06:32] <nojoints> oompaloompa; it does render
[06:32] <oompaloompa> apples1: what do u mean set up?
[06:32] <nojoints> oompaloompa; yes
[06:32] <Yo_> Jack_Sparrow i did select and partitioned the right hdd but it doesn load the system from it ... so there is deffenetly something wrong with it ;)
[06:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo_: You can use super grub to try and fix it... or you can delete the partitions that you made and tell the installer to use largest free space...
[06:32] <oompaloompa> nojoints: directrendering is "yes"
[06:33] <nojoints> oomaloompa; yes, which xorg.conf do you want?
[06:33] <zorze> sleepyhare- are you using the embedded javaviewer? if not then try that
[06:33] <oompaloompa> nojoints: the on that nvidia=settings made
[06:33] <apples1> oompaloompa: like i had my secondary hd running a few days ago, but now it won' mount at all, it gives me an error.
[06:33] <oompaloompa> apples1: what's the error message?
[06:33] <XLV> anyone here using freenx? does it solve the copy and paste issue? i even installed autocutsel, it wont help
[06:33] <SleepyHare> zorze, the embedded javaviewer?
[06:34] <nojoints> oompaloompa; seems like a problem becouse it's dissapears -.-
[06:34] <micr> Could any one can tell me how can i measure hardrive transfer speed ?
[06:34] <oompaloompa> nojoints: the file disappears?
[06:34] <oompaloompa> nojoints: that would be because u replacd it with the backup remember?
[06:34] <nojoints> oompaloompa; no but it changes to the one that is xorg.conf
[06:34] <XLV> micr, hdparm -tT /dev/hda eg
[06:34] <micr> XLV: thanks
[06:34] <oompaloompa> nojoints: yes it's supposed to
[06:34] <oompaloompa> nojoints: or else the settings wouldn't stick
[06:34] <nojoints> oompaloompa; I got two backups, the one that nvidia-settings does AND another one I named myself
[06:35] <oompaloompa> nojoints: post the xorg.conf that nvidia-settings creates
[06:35] <xp_guy> so how would i go about loading ubuntu onto my laptop if the xserver fails before the live cd loads
[06:35] <apples1> oompaloompa: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb2, missing codepage or other error
[06:35] <Yo_> Jack_Sparrow i will try to install ubuntu again but only with one hdd atttached

[06:35] <nojoints> oompaloompa; but the one nvidia-settings did removes itself somehow and becomes the one I named myself
[06:36] <micr> XLV: and what about write speed ?
[06:36] <oompaloompa> apples1: could u post ur /etc/fstab to the pastebin?
[06:36] <Jack_Sparrow> xp_guy: You can use the alt cd or hit F6 at the first screen and try different options linke noapic
[06:36] <oompaloompa> nojoints: huh?
[06:36] <nojoints> oompaloompa; well I don't really get it either..
[06:36] <xp_guy> jack: what is the alt cd and how do i get it
[06:36] <illriginal> Anyone know if it's safe to do the latest update on Feisty Fawn? With NVidia drivers?
[06:36] <oompaloompa> nojoints: or try running fsck on the drive. . .
[06:37] <oompaloompa> illriginal: i did it and my drivers still work. . .
[06:37] <oompaloompa> nojoints: my bad that wasn't meant for you
[06:37] <XLV> micr, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Benchmark xfbsuite
[06:37] <SleepyHare> zorze, it`s embedded in UltaVNC-server, I don`t have that, since my server is Ubuntu.
[06:37] <nojoints> oompaloompa; kk -.- =p
[06:37] <illriginal> ok gonna attempt to update <,< im scared >.>
[06:37] <zorze> sleepyhare- ah, so both server and client are ubuntu?
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> illriginal: I suggest a quick backup
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[06:38] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[06:38] <oompaloompa> nojoints: so have u tried telling nvidia-settings to save to , say, /home/urname/xorg.conf
[06:38] <banyunet> jklhjkljgjkhgfjg
[06:38] <apples1> oompaloompa: done
[06:38] <oompaloompa> nojoints: and then doing sudo cp /home/urname/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[06:38] <apples1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34314/
[06:38] <micr> XLV: ok
[06:39] <oompaloompa> apples1: is this an external drive?
[06:39] <Goooner> Broadcom: the bcm43xx driver is now shipped with ubuntu. You need firmware and can get it with the script: /usr/share/bcm43xx-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh (which is provided by the bcm43xx-fwcutter package).
[06:39] <apples1> oompaloompa: no internal IDE jfs with 39.6 gb mem
[06:39] <oompaloompa> nojoints: if it doesn't work right again, post ur xorg.conf
[06:39] <SleepyHare> zorze, Nope, the client is Win2k
[06:40] <Goooner> How do I get the firmware? I dont get it.
[06:40] <oompaloompa> apples1: k
[06:40] <lnx> how i can cancel Gnome windows minimize effect ?
[06:40] <xp_guy> what is the ubuntu alt cd
[06:40] <nojoints> oompaloompa; no idea what you just ment
[06:40] <badpenguin86> Anyone know if upgrading my kernel with screw with my bcm43xx driver?
[06:41] <oompaloompa> nojoints: when u cp the xorg.conf that nvidia made to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:41] <astro76> Goooner, normally you would just install the package bcm43xx-fwcutter and it downloads the file from somewhere, but that somewhere is no longer working in Fiesty
[06:41] <oompaloompa> nojoints: and restart x, if it doesn't work right, paste the xorg.conf that nvidia made
[06:41] <Goooner> You also having problems with bcm43xx, badpenguin86?
[06:41] <astro76> Goooner, you can use this package instead: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/feisty-cafuego/bcm43xx/
[06:41] <oompaloompa> nojoints: to the pastebin
[06:41] <astro76> badpenguin86, it shouldn't
[06:41] <nojoints> oompaloompa; I will save the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to another place if it fluxx again
[06:42] <oompaloompa> k
[06:42] <Goooner> astro76: So that is a firmware pack?
[06:42] <ToddED1> hey guys... how do i get that OSX-like dock?
[06:42] <apples1> oompaloompa: there was origanally no entry for hdb2(thats the partition) but someone had me put it in, and i added something to it, and my cpu started freezing. so it's back to the way it was(it wouldn't mount before either...
[06:42] <xtknight> badpenguin86, if you are using bcm43xx from the kernel, no
[06:42] <oompaloompa> nojoints: i just wanna look at the conf file and see if nvidia-settings borked something
[06:42] <astro76> Goooner, the package from cafuego contains the actual firmware already extracted, so just install it and you're ready
[06:42] <oompaloompa> ToddED1: u could try avant window navigator
[06:42] <Goooner> cool. 'll try it
[06:42] <oompaloompa> ToddED1: it's pretty slick
[06:43] <oompaloompa> ToddED1: so is kiba-dock
[06:43] <winwinwin> if I am going to make an Google Adsense company, how can I track Fraud Click and Fraud Impressions ?
[06:43] <oompaloompa> apples1: right
[06:43] <oompaloompa> apples1: have u run fsck on the drive?
[06:43] <apples1> oompaloompa: ???
[06:43] <oompaloompa> the partition, rather
[06:43] <ToddED1> thanks oompaloompa
[06:43] <oompaloompa> ToddED1: no prob
[06:43] <Yo_> hows ubuntu dealing with the windows games now?
[06:44] <lnx> how i can cancel the METACITY windows minimize effect ?
[06:44] <micr> XLV: thanks for reference (by the way gentoo's wiki is down) but may be you have some pointers to next q : how can i ensure if my external hd works with usb2 high speed ?
[06:44] <oompaloompa> apples1: run fsck /dev/<drive>
[06:44] <oompaloompa> apples1: dev/hda1 right?
[06:44] <aliencoder> #nicsetup
[06:45] <Goooner> astro76: Okay, used wget command, got it down. Does that mean it is installed in correct lib?
[06:45] <apples1> oompaloompa: hdbX
[06:45] <apples1> X being either 1 or 2
[06:45] <oompaloompa> it checks the file system to see if it's borken and attempts to fix it
[06:45] <astro76> astro76, if you just downloaded it you'll need to install it with dpkg -i file.deb
[06:45] <XLV> micr, well, usb1.1 is only 12Mbit/s, usb2 is 480MBit/s, transfer a large file and time it, if its 1MB/s or lower is usb1.1m if more or lots more usb2
[06:45] <Frogzoo> B//quit
[06:45] <oompaloompa> apples1: so run fsck on the partition ur tryin to mount
[06:45] <oompaloompa> and see if that fixes the problem
[06:45] <Squee> Does anyone know of a good free CD burning program that can open .ISOs?
[06:46] <oompaloompa> Squee: gnomebaker
[06:46] <oompaloompa> Squee: or k3b
[06:46] <oompaloompa> Squee: both are pretty excellent
[06:47] <Squee> thanks, oompaloompa

[06:49] <micr> XLV:  ok , great , Thank you.
[06:49] <zorze> sleepyhare- vnc clients are pretty good with connecting with other vnc programs (like using ultravnc client to connect to a vino server) but vino is pretty limited at this time. I am no expert on ubuntu so maybe the easiest solution would be to try out a different client on your win2k system.

[06:50] <apples1> apples_: i think the superblock is dead.
[06:50] <nojoints> oompaloompa; what I want it to do is work as 1 screen but games should not become widescreen
[06:50] <apples1> oompaloompa: i think the superblock is dead
[06:50] <oompaloompa> apples1: u can try fsck -p
[06:50] <SleepyHare> zorze, Well, I`m doing that already.
[06:50] <oompaloompa> apples1: which tries to automatically repair everything
[06:50] <oompaloompa> apples1: that is marked as 'bad'
[06:51] <Lappy> oh i misread it finalbeta .... stupid of nme
[06:51] <oompaloompa> nojoints: yeah i know

[07:04] <trond> hi channel. I'm reinstalling ubuntu to have more than one partition (and to completely remove windows). my disk is 80gb, what would you all suggest as a good partition scheme?
[07:05] <wolferine> trond, well, I personally put /home on another partition
[07:05] <Laeelin> does anyone know where bind saves it's log files? .. its not failing to start, and I need to figure out why :)
[07:05] <wolferine> trond, so you could go 40/40
[07:05] <trond> wolferine, so would I. how large would you suggest that partition to be?
[07:05] <wolferine> Laeelin, in /var/log ?
[07:05] <boubbin> how to manage mountpoints ?
[07:05] <trond> wolferine, and some for the swap and some for the boot?
[07:05] <wolferine> boubbin, man mount + /etc/fstab
[07:05] <fredrik_> !ask

[07:06] <ZeroXR> Does anyone use AWN? I am having some issues with compiling where my properties menu doesn't exist (according to the verbose from Terminal)
[07:06] <niuq> how can i install amarok's support for mp3?
[07:06] <Lamego> ZeroXR, avant windows manager ?
[07:07] <trond> wolferine, this is a laptop and I am also running apache on it for development. Would you make a partition for /var ? or maybe move all developsites to /home maybe?
[07:07] <aaisen> anyone here know what is up with regionset and dvdcss?  I have a rpc-2 dvd from matshita, and cannot play dvd's on it, even with decss properly installed.  my regionset output is this:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34316/plain/  Is the region my problem?  If so, why does it say 0xFF?

[07:07] <s> hi all
[07:07] <ZeroXR> Lamego: It's an OS X style window list
[07:07] <zorze> sleepyhare- if possible, it would be much easier to install ubuntu on a local machine, or dual boot to use as a client machine to interact with your vino server. That would be a drastic measure, but if you have use for installing ubuntu on another machine anyway it would would certainly solve the problem
[07:07] <niuq> wolferine, ubuntu guide?
[07:07] <Lamego> Zee1ot, you can get a compiled package for it from getdeb
[07:08] <Goooner> What is the 'sudo' command?
[07:08] <Lamego> ops, was ZeroXR
[07:08] <wolferine> trond, you can do as many partitions as you like, its upto you
[07:08] <brohken> Goooner it gives you root
[07:08] <wolferine> trond, but you dont have to over do it :)
[07:08] <Goooner> Oh
[07:08] <trond> wolferine, hehe.. but as you said: 40gb for the home should do wonders.
[07:08] <astro76> trond, I have my 80gb laptop partitioned as 12 GB /, 2GB swap, 512MB /temp, 3GB /var, the rest /home
[07:08] <tech404> I just did a fresh install and when grub starts up it just prints it's name over and over again. My screen just says grub 16 times accross and 25 times down. Any ideas? I have never seen this before. I have tried the install twice
[07:08] <ZeroXR> Lamego, I am trying to build from source due to the new features in the current
[07:08] <lloyd__> Hello, Is there a way to make it so my NTFS partition stays mounted when I shut down and turn on my PC? So that I don't always have to remount it every time I reboot?
[07:08] <Goooner> And the wget? Is that a package manager? If I include a line with URL, will 'wget' install the source for me?
[07:08] <brohken> Goooner will let you do things you need a password to. if you want to stay root you can use the command "sudo bash"
[07:08] <Lamego> ZeroXR, its the current version
[07:08] <wolferine> trond, yeah, matters, I found that after I installed a lot of apps, my / needed to be doubled in size
[07:08] <TheDukeNY> is there a way to extend my desktop onto an external monitor with my s-video?
[07:09] <wolferine> so I ensure I give is sufficient space, then /home gets the rest
[07:09] <wolferine> outside the SWAP
[07:09] <trond> astro76, sounds like good plan...
[07:09] <gan1> i am not able to enable desktop effects..
[07:09] <trond> wolferine, right.. so 20 to / 3 to /swap and the rest to /home wouldn't be such a bad idea either?
[07:09] <brohken> can someone please help me install my nvidia card. i am so lost. i can't do it using the guide online
[07:09] <brohken> arggg
[07:09] <wolferine> trond, it will matter what you want to do in the future,
[07:10] <wolferine> i dont want to lose whats in my /home
[07:10] <oompaloompa> gan1: this could turn into a long conversation :-)
[07:10] <zorze> gan1- those are experimental, they don't work on my machine either
[07:10] <wolferine> the rest of the system is fine to format/reinstall, if I need to
[07:10] <SleepyHare> zorze, Ah, the client machine... No, that`s not the point. I need my sever to be accessible from any system. Like, I have no problem using VNC from my palm handheld via gprs.
[07:10] <wolferine> brohken, edgy or feisty?
[07:10] <oompaloompa> a separate /home is definitely the way to go
[07:10] <astro76> trond, how much ram do you have?
[07:10] <lloyd__> Hello, Is there a way to make it so my NTFS partition stays mounted when I shut down and turn on my PC? So that I don't always have to remount it every time I reboot?

[07:11] <gan1> oompaloompa:then is it possible to install beryl??
[07:11] <TheDukeNY> is there a way to extend my desktop onto an external monitor with my s-video?
[07:11] <oompaloompa> gan1: sure
[07:11] <trond> wolferine, heard on the linuxactionshow that the guy did this with /home, so thats why I am reinstalling and I also had windows on this machine so I'm removing it. I'll try and install WMware (player ( server)) to maybe run windows under it.
[07:11] <Goooner> And the wget? Is that a package manager? If I include a line with URL, will 'wget' install the source for me?
[07:11] <dhuid> everytime I try to install the drives for Geforce BFG the system crashes after restart
[07:11] <oompaloompa> gan1: i assume your video card drivers are installed and working?
[07:11] <aaisen> anyone here know what is up with regionset and dvdcss?  I have a rpc-2 dvd from matshita, and cannot play dvd's on it, even with decss properly installed.  my regionset output is this:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34316/plain/  Is the region my problem?  If so, why does it say 0xFF?
[07:11] <astro76> Goooner, wget just downloads
[07:11] <illriginal> Simple Back Up does not work...
[07:11] <wolferine> trond, 100% linux is the best OS solution, eva
[07:11] <micr> gan1 : try on #beryl , those guys are wizards :)
[07:11] <mailavj> i have compiz installed in fiesty fawn, i want to try beryl . how can  i disable compiz and install beryk
[07:11] <kaveh> hi all\
[07:11] <mailavj> beryl
[07:11] <tech404> lloyd__: no... why would you want to?
[07:11] <Goooner> astro76: Oh. So how do I install the firmware? Sorry, Im very new to Linux
[07:12] <wolferine> brohken, someone is offering help....
[07:12] <kaveh> howcan i makewlan0 up at boot time?
[07:12] <kaveh> howcan i make wlan0 up at boot time?
[07:12] <wolferine> mailavj, sudo aptitude install beryl
[07:12] <astro76> Goooner, the .deb from cafuego?  sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[07:12] <gan1> oompaloompa:i installed xorg files..but not able to run ati.run file..
[07:12] <trond> wolferine, I totally agree... I'm off windows, except at work since I have to create things in VS2005.net.
[07:12] <lloyd__> tech404 because I have a NTFS partition from my old windows install and have important files on it, and instead of backing it up, I just noticed that Ubuntu can mount the NTFS partition (It has no operating system on it)
[07:13] <mailavj> wolferine : will it disable compiz or will it affect any compiz settings
[07:13] <kaveh> ?
[07:13] <wolferine> trond, you will learn so much
[07:13] <brohken> wolferine, sorry i am trying to use Envy
[07:13] <Goooner> astro76: Oh, so a depack is not like unrar? It unpackes to the correct location? Where the firmware is stored?
[07:13] <oompaloompa> gan1: there's no package for fglrx in synaptic?
[07:13] <brohken> wolferine im using 704
[07:13] <wolferine> mailavj, ask more specific question in #ubuntu-effects
[07:13] <mailavj> okay
[07:13] <abowen> having trouble installing on a legacy system.  I have to switch to 800x600 and boot the live cd in safe graffics mode to get it to work.  But when I try to start the system up the black screen melts and i get nothing but a white screen
[07:13] <lloyd__> tech404: And I have put a VM ware hard drive image on it
[07:13] <mailavj> thanks
[07:13] <wolferine> brohken, did you enable the driver in the 'restricted drivers manager' ?
[07:13] <astro76> Goooner, dpkg is part of the package management system
[07:14] <brohken> wolferine, let me see if this works. the driver doesnt come up in restricted river's manager
[07:14] <Goooner> astro76: Thanks, THINK I can manage now =)
[07:14] <zorze> sleepyhare- i guess your best bet would be to keep looking for a vnc client that works well with vino, can't really give any advice on that though. If you haven't done so already i'd still start out by attempting to connect to the server with another ubunto computer, just to make sure that the server is set up correctly and is not the source of the problem.
[07:14] <astro76> !apt | Goooner
[07:14] <ubotu> Goooner: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:14] <tech404> lloyd__: so your asking about it mounting it automagicly instead of doing it by hand?
[07:14] <lloyd__> tech404: Yes
[07:14] <wolferine> brohken, so it doesnt work (restricted driver manager) ?
[07:14] <kaveh> howcan i make wlan0 up at boot time?
[07:14] <kaveh> any one?
[07:14] <trond> wolferine, well. I've been running feisty for quite some time, so it's no problem. I'm a true Linux converter for some time now, just wanted to totally remove windows and maybe run it through wmware.
[07:14] <tech404> lloyd__: you will need to change /etc/fstab... do a google search
[07:14] <JarG0n> how do I view a list of hard drive permissions?
[07:14] <illriginal> Anyone know why "Simple Back Up" does not back up my files?...
[07:15] <wolferine> trond, you will forget windows entirely :)
[07:15] <lloyd__> tech404: Thank you
[07:15] <abowen> having install problems, screen turns white and does nothing
[07:15] <kaveh> any one?
[07:15] <brohken> worksss!!!!!
[07:15] <wolferine> abowen, installing from command line?

[07:15] <wolferine> brohken, there yo go
[07:15] <brohken> wolferine omg, i've been trying this for days
[07:15] <wolferine> brohken, direct the rest of the questions to #ubuntu-effects, they can help you have some more fun :)
[07:16] <tech404> kaveh: auto wlan
[07:16] <abowen> wolferine, in general.  I have to change from VGA to 800x600 to get it to work, then when I remove the livecd and boot up, the screen turns white and does nothing
[07:16] <Rabbitbunny> do I need to keep tftpd running for the entire network install?
[07:16] <kaveh> tech404, thanks
[07:16] <trond> would anyone suggest to go for getsy now or continue using feisty when reinstalling?
[07:16] <wolferine> abowen, at what portion of the boot sequence do you see a white screen?
[07:16] <tech404> kaveh:  you will need to add auto wlan1 to your /etc/network/interfaces file
[07:16] <thadeus> hi
[07:16] <kaveh> tech404, in termial?
[07:17] <astro76> trond, stick with feisty
[07:17] <wolferine> trond, its only 2 months away from release
[07:17] <thadeus> is there someone here who use code::blocks ??
[07:17] <foo-darthturtle> install problem - installed LAMP server, decided better to start with desktop, on reinstall only DNS server & LAMP server are options - 7.04 gutsy gibbon .iso
[07:17] <abowen> wolferine, as soon at the kernel begins to boot
[07:17] <tech404> kaveh: or wlan0 rather
[07:17] <kaveh> tech404, thanks alot
[07:17] <trond> astro76, ok... that's what I thought too.
[07:17] <Laeelin> bind9 isnt starting ( * Starting domain name service... bind [fail] ).. when I try to start it i get no error message, and no messages in the log files...
[07:17] <wolferine> abowen, i think i missed abit of the question, thought your issue was an install problem
[07:17] <JarG0n> when I click on a drive in Nautilus, I get the following: "Cannot mount volume.  You are not privileged to mount this volume."  Any suggestions?
[07:18] <Laeelin> anyone able to give me somewhere to look? (i just tried a complete removal and reinstall)
[07:18] <JarG0n> It's an external USB drive
[07:18] <kaveh> tech404, it has it
[07:18] <tech404> kaveh:  open terminal type sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces then add auto wlan0
[07:18] <abowen> wolferine, oh.  Well it kinda is.  I can get it to install, but not work after that
[07:18] <wolferine> Laeelin, did you check dmesg for errors?
[07:18] <kaveh> tech404, it has it
[07:18] <Ruri_Himura> niuq, install libxine-extracodecs
[07:18] <wolferine> abowen, i meant software install, not the entire OS
[07:18] <micr> JarG0n : try #sudo nautilus
[07:18] <tech404> kaveh: then it is setup
[07:18] <abowen> wolferine, no prob.
[07:18] <tech404> you could also add allow-hotplug wlan0
[07:18] <Laeelin> wolferine: yes
[07:18] <niuq> Ruri_Himura, ok
[07:19] <micr> JarG0n : dose it helps ?
[07:19] <kaveh> thanksi restart
[07:19] <wolferine> Laeelin, seems kinda odd
[07:19] <gan1> oompaloompa:i have installed fglrx-control and fglrx-kernel-control..how to install ati driver??
[07:19] <wolferine> Laeelin, you changed a config file or something?
[07:19] <JarG0n> micr> It probably will, but I'm trying to resolve the access issue I"m having.
[07:19] <Laeelin> wolferine: in fact the only file in the log folder that updates is the auth.log recording the command
[07:20] <Laeelin> no, trying to set it up for the first time
[07:20] <wolferine> what documentation are you using?
[07:20] <JarG0n> micr> do you know the name of the file to edit with nano ?  I forgot.
[07:20] <else-> Laeelin, so install restricted-manager
[07:20] <abowen> Having OS install problems.  Screen goes white after install on boot
[07:20] <brohken> does anyone know how i can get the sound working on my laptop?
[07:20] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: are you trying to run beryl?
[07:20] <wolferine> abowen, you should give me detail please
[07:20] <wolferine> brohken, turn it up :)
[07:20] <brohken> i think someone mentioned to use alsa soemthing before?
[07:21] <brohken> wolferine haha
[07:21] <brohken> wolferine seriously, any ideas?
[07:21] <IndyGunFreak> !sound | brohken
[07:21] <ubotu> brohken: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:21] <wolferine> brohken, some times its that simple :)
[07:21] <brohken> hehe its not this time
[07:21] <brohken> im playing an audio file. not working
[07:21] <kazzmir> I pressed some button and my gimp window went away( it didnt close )
[07:21] <wolferine> brohken, check that link above :)
[07:21] <kazzmir> how do i get a list of open windows or whatever in metacity?
[07:21] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: ok, what audio file?
[07:21] <brohken> IndyGunFreak it's just an mp3
[07:21] <wolferine> kazzmir, is it on the task bar, at the bottom of the screen?
[07:22] <krang> Hey, i just tried to dd a DVD, but the file came out 1.2MB in size. I assume that was copy protection, how can I get round it?
[07:22] <kazzmir> no
[07:22] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: do you have the codecs installed?
[07:22] <IndyGunFreak> !mp3 | brohken
[07:22] <gan1> oompaloompa:i have installed fglrx-control and fglrx-kernel-control..how to install ati driver??
[07:22] <ubotu> brohken: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:22] <kazzmir> i saw it do some minimize animation and now i cant find it
[07:22] <wolferine> kazzmir, sudo ps -A | grep gimp
[07:22] <wolferine> kazzmir, is it listed?
[07:22] <kazzmir> yea its 20772
[07:22] <|doorsman> i've remarked that some downloads or factured to my isp they are quite small (30-40 Megs a days) but i was wondering if it's zw that is puttin' himself up-to-date or if i should look elsewhere?
[07:22] <abowen> wolferine, ok.  I have an old legacy system PIII with 64ram.  I can use an alternate cd to install and it works.  However, I have to change from VGA to 800x600 before I ever see anything or can even install to begin with.  Then after I remove the cd and begin to use the system for the first time, after the kernel begins to uncompress, I get the melting black to white screen and nothing else
[07:22] <wolferine> ok, ctrl-alt-tab, to cycle windows?
[07:23] <illriginal> Can someone help me with backin up my system... seems like "Simple Back Up" program does not want to back up system...
[07:23] <dgeorge> hello all, does anyone know a good rss program....
[07:23] <niuq> Ruri_Himura, Thank you!
[07:23] <hustlebird> anyone ever have success installing shockwave in wine?
[07:23] <kazzmir> doesnt show up
[07:23] <niuq> Ruri_Himura, it worked
[07:23] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: can you boot in safe mode to a CLI, or have you tried?
[07:23] <Rabbitbunny> abowen, reconfigure xserver
[07:23] <wolferine> kazzmir, you have beryl turned on?
[07:23] <kazzmir> no
[07:23] <gan1> ubotu:i have installed fglrx-control and fglrx-kernel-control..how to install ati driver??
[07:23] <wolferine> compwiz?
[07:23] <oompaloompa> gan1: install xorg-driver-fglrx
[07:23] <kazzmir> do you know how to switch from metacity to icewm easily?
[07:23] <JarG0n> fstab !!
[07:24] <SleepyHare> zorze, The server works okay, I`ve stated earlier, that I can connect with TightVNC (I`m using it instead of Ultra now). And I`ve connected with Ubuntu clients.
[07:24] <kazzmir> i hate metacity :p
[07:24] <abowen> IndyGunFreak and Rabbitbunny I would, but I don't even get a CL
[07:24] <dgeorge> anyone around...?
[07:24] <wolferine> i never use icewm
[07:24] <brohken> IndyGunFreak can i install vlc to test if this is a codec issue? i believe vlc uses its own codecs
[07:24] <oompaloompa> gan1: and linux-restricted-modules-<ur kernel>
[07:24] <wolferine> !ask | dgeorge
[07:24] <kazzmir> i mean just how to switch window managers in general
[07:24] <ubotu> dgeorge: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:24] <hustlebird> anyone ever have success installing shockwave in wine?
[07:24] <kazzmir> is it a simple matter of editing .xinitrc ?
[07:24] <oompaloompa> gan1: then restart x
[07:24] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: one of your menu entries in grub,s hould be to start ubuntu in "safe" mode.. that a CLI
[07:24] <trond> does this sound ok as a partition plan: / = 20g, /swap = 3gb (I got 1,5 gb ram), /boot = 3gb /home = 54gb
[07:24] <oompaloompa> gan1: oh and make sure u eneble ati driver in restricted modules manager
[07:24] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: sure if you want, but VLC will need the codecs also.
[07:24] <wolferine> abowen, no ideas, sorry
[07:24] <abowen> wolferine, is ok
[07:24] <dgeorge> I am just wondering for a rss feed program thats out there
[07:25] <brohken> IndyGunFreak, gotcha. ill try now then
[07:25] <hustlebird> anyone ever have success installing shockwave in wine?
[07:25] <wolferine> troubled, you can even do less in SWAP
[07:25] <vocx> trond, you do not need /boot more than 100 MB. Where did you see you needed more?
[07:25] <Esteth> Hey all. Does anyone know where i can find a gstreamer codec/plugin/whatever for M4A files?
[07:25] <wolferine> and maybe do 30GB in /
[07:25] <dgeorge> I need one with a sound alert fuction
[07:25] <gan1> oompaloompa:k.. i ll try...
[07:25] <XLV> anyone, about the copy and paste issue of vnc? if i use X over ssh, or x11vnc, is the problem solved?
[07:25] <astro76> trond, 1.5GB swap would be more than enough and you could still hibernate
[07:25] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, I don't ever get to a place where I can enter anything.  It goes white from the beginning, unless I'm missing some step.  It counts down from 2 to 0 then loads the kernel then goes white
[07:26] <|doorsman> someone can help ?
[07:26] <wolferine> hustlebird, ask in #winehq, check the topic with compatible programs with wine
[07:26] <trond> astro76, ok...
[07:26] <vocx> !someone | |doorsman
[07:26] <ubotu> |doorsman: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:26] <hustlebird> thank try there
[07:26] <trond> vocx, right. so 100mb or 200mb maybe... just to be on the safe side?
[07:26] <wolferine> !ask | |doorsman
[07:26] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: when it starts that countdown, hit escape quickly.. then you'll get two menu options... choose "boot in safe mode", which is CLI.. if that doesn't work, this could be problematic
[07:26] <ubotu> |doorsman: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:26] <|doorsman> i've remarked that some downloads or factured to my isp they are quite small (30-40 Megs a days) but i was wondering if it's zw that is puttin' himself up-to-date or if i should look elsewhere?
[07:26] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, hang on, I
[07:27] <Jim-Reaper> hi all
[07:27] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, hang on, I'll try it again
[07:27] <wolferine> |doorsman, is your native tongue english?
[07:27] <Jim-Reaper> well that seemed to work
[07:27] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok...
[07:27] <|doorsman> wolferine nope
[07:27] <wolferine> hey Jim-Reaper
[07:27] <Jim-Reaper> :)
[07:27] <oompaloompa> how do i umount a volume by UUID?
[07:27] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak, if he only has ubuntu on that computer the grub menu maybe hidden,  he might hve to hit esc right after the bios info screen, or even while
[07:27] <wolferine> |doorsman, ! two letter country code, example: !es
[07:27] <Seveas> oompaloompa, umount /dev/dist/by-id/uuid_here
[07:28] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, ok I have 3 options ker, recovery, and memtest
[07:28] <vocx> trond, /boot hold the Linux kernel and the boot loader. Each kernel needs like 15 MB. Unless you are using 100 kernels you do need 3 GB. Yes use 200 MB if you wish. Make it a ext2 partition.
[07:28] <Seveas> /dev/disk of course...
[07:28] <oompaloompa> Seveas: thanks, dude
[07:28] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: i just told him that
[07:28] <|doorsman> !cf
[07:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:28] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: choose redcovery.. that should boot you to a CLI
[07:28] <astro76> |doorsman, french?
[07:28] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak, I meant he won'T see a count down
[07:28] <wolferine> that would be fr :P
[07:28] <|doorsman> astro76 yes
[07:28] <astro76> !fr
[07:28] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:28] <wolferine> bonjour :)
[07:28] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: no, ifyou only have ubuntu, it will give you a countdown, at least it always has for me.
[07:28] <|doorsman> bruenig why?
[07:28] <IndyGunFreak> you have to hit esc to see grub.
[07:29] <|doorsman> allo wolferine
[07:29] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, ahhh genius I have a CLI
[07:29] <MrVince> install question.  I have an older p2 300Mhz with 128MB memory.  Anyway, the cdrom on the pc is old and can only read 650MB discs.  However, the pc can boot off the cd and get to the installation menu.  However, when trying to run any of the functionailty from the menu, my PC freezes.  Long story short:  I have extracted all the files from the .iso into a secondary drive and would like to boot from taht using the install cd.  H
[07:29] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, what do you suggest now?
[07:29] <bruenig> |doorsman, jumping ship?
[07:29] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok, there's a command you need to run, let me find it.
[07:29] <|doorsman> bruenig no
[07:29] <Goooner> astro76: Thank you very much! The firmware did the trick!
[07:29] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: whats thsat command to reconfigure X?
[07:29] <IndyGunFreak> sudo dpkg?
[07:29] <IndyGunFreak> somethbing
[07:29] <bruenig> !xconfig
[07:30] <ubotu> To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[07:30] <Rabbitbunny> how do I scroll at the CLI? i want to read the dmesg that just flew by.
[07:30] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:30] <Pelo> damn bot
[07:30] <bruenig> !sorry | Pelo
[07:30] <sakra> IndyGunFreak: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:30] <ubotu> Pelo: It's ok, I can't stay mad at you.
[07:30] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: run that command pelo just mentioned, and you need to choose the vesa driver
[07:30] <Rabbitbunny> abowen: When you get to the part where you can choose the resolutions it will use, space selects/deselects
[07:31] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, give me a sec
[07:31] <nojoints> oompaloompa; have you written anything since I was gone?
[07:31] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: lol, you can take all day if you want..lol
[07:31] <bruenig> !hi | PriceChild
[07:31] <ubotu> PriceChild: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:31] <wolferine> Rabbitbunny, pipe it into less 'command | less'
[07:31] <oompaloompa> nojoints: no i've been tryin to umount my freakin ntfs drive so i can wipe it lol
[07:32] <Ruri_Himura> ok niuq
[07:32] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: all day?
[07:32] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[07:32] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, well I just realized that I only have a server install so I have yet to intall xorg
[07:32] <aryr100> ? is it possible to make a ubuntu edition with all 3 infaces (gnome,kde&xfce) with a choose @ install of which one ?
[07:32] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, just lift the leg of the desk up, you'll figure it out
[07:32] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: lol
[07:32] <nojoints> oompaloompa; okok
[07:32] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: :)
[07:33] <oompaloompa> nojoints: and i dunno what's wrong with it it looks fine to me
[07:33] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: why do you only hav ea server install?
[07:33] <astro76> aryr100, sure after you install ubuntu, install kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop
[07:33] <Pelo> yep reconfigureing a non installed x will pretty much take all day
[07:33] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: maybe a weekend...lol
[07:33] <oompaloompa> nojoints: repost the link to your paste and ask around some more, i'm sorry i couldn't help you more
[07:33] <bruenig> aryr100, you would probably need to do a net install to be able to do that
[07:33] <nojoints> oompaloompa well then it's very strange
[07:33] <vocx> IndyGunFreak, you remember benn1234? His flash worked but it stopped working when he rebooted the PC. He ended up purging Firefox.
[07:33] <astro76> aryr100, oh sorry misread question
[07:33] <bruenig> aryr100, or a dvd, I don't think a cd would hold them all even though they are mostly redundant
[07:33] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, the system's a POS and I wanted to go as minimal as possible. so I did a server install and was going to build up from there
[07:34] <IndyGunFreak> vocx: yeah, i remember
[07:34] <Pelo> vocx,  we remember been from last night, we spent 3 hrs with him getting him to add 4 lines to his grub menu.list
[07:34] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok.. but personally, i'd have just downloaded xubuntu, unless you need the server functions.
[07:34] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: lol
[07:34] <aryr100> kk there is a slackware spinoff that ask if you want gnome or kde @ install a window pops up
[07:34] <vocx> IndyGunFreak, Pelo hooray!
[07:35] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: whats the system specs of your PC?
[07:35] <Noiano> hi everbody
[07:35] <IndyGunFreak> vocx: my 3yr old nephew has a better attention span than he does.
[07:35] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak,  so do my goldfishes
[07:35] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, I tried that, but got the white screen of death, but I might be able to fix it now Idunno.  Ahhh its a Jetta PIII 64 mem
[07:35] <IndyGunFreak> one minute he's discussing a grub problem, next sentence, he's asking you why he can't mount ntfs.
[07:35] <Noiano> I would like to have a command line ubuntu and I want to delete gnome and all it's related...which package should I remove?
[07:36] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: that should run xubuntu., you'd just need to use the alternat einstall CD
[07:36] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, If so, how so I get past that darn white screen?
[07:36] <brohken> IndyGunFreak, that didn't seem to work. i still can't get sound from playing an .ogg
[07:36] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: i told you it wouldn't, you probably have a codec issue.
[07:36] <Pelo> Noiano, not sure how you can go about doing that ,  I know  just apt-get remvoe ubuntu-desktop won't to the trick unless you can find an option tha tremvoes all the dependencies as well
[07:36] <oompaloompa> the fact that i cannot unmount this ntfs partition is bothering far more than anything i have ever experienced
[07:36] <nojoints> oompaloompa; can you post your xorg.conf somewhere? Gonna look for difference
[07:37] <sakra> Noiano: start by removing gdm
[07:37] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: i suspect, becuase you dont' have enough RAM to runt he Live CD, if you used the alternate install CD< you'd probably be fine
[07:37] <oompaloompa> nojoints: it's gonna be different we have different hardware
[07:37] <CoasterMaster> Is there a way to play Blu-Ray/HD-DVD discs in Linux yet?
[07:37] <vocx> abowen, every megabyte of RAM you add will be helpful. Memory is wort in Linux world.
[07:37] <brohken> IndyGunFreak so how do i clear that up?
[07:37] <IndyGunFreak> !codecs | brohken
[07:37] <nojoints> oompaloompa; not gonna look on the hardware, only see the difference
[07:37] <ubotu> brohken: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:37] <oompaloompa> nojoints: ok
[07:38] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, yeah i can load it in text mode, but when I reboot and run of the HD it goes white on me again.
[07:38] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  terminal  type  blkid  find the dev/tree of the ntfs partiton ,  sudo umount /dev/tree
[07:38] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: is that the actual install you get the white screen on, or the Live CD?
[07:38] <IndyGunFreak> w/ xubuntu
[07:39] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, both.  but on the live cd I can make it work by changing the graphics from vga to 800x600.  if i don't i get the white screen
[07:39] <oompaloompa> Pelo: thanks
[07:39] <oompaloompa> nojoints: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34319/
[07:39] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  it worked ? great
[07:39] <oompaloompa> Pelo: no
[07:40] <newpers> how do i disable hplip in the init system?
[07:40] <oompaloompa> Pelo: lol i meant thanks for trying
[07:40] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: well, i have no idea, if you can get Xubuntu installed w/ the Alternate Install CD.., then you can run reconfigure, and probagbly get to a workable desktop
[07:40] <oompaloompa> keeps hollering that it's not mounted
[07:40] <oompaloompa> when it definitely is
[07:40] <brohken> IndyGunFreak i went to that page before. installed the restricted formats
[07:40] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  what is the mount poing of your ntfs partiton ?   sudo umount /mountpoing
[07:40] <vocx> dmb_, that is #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:40] <theone> anyone know how to update compiz-core update? when i click update it runs through says it is successful but never leaves
[07:40] <lloyd__> I need to find out the info of my NTFS partition to add it to the fstab, how would I do that?
[07:40] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, thanks i'll keep working on it.
[07:40] <Pelo> theone, you would need to ask in #ubuntu-effects probably
[07:40] <Jack_Sparrow> lloyd__: sudo fdisk -l
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: i *think* you can add xfce to your server install, but i'm not sure how to make it work, and even then, you still need to reconfigure, because you can't get to a CLI in normal boot.
[07:41] <theone> big sigh
[07:41] <CapIno> whoever is was who recommended frostware, thank you! It's a goodie
[07:41] <newpers> sudo update-rc.d -f appname remove?
[07:41] <Jim-Reaper> Cannot open /media/cdrom0/PTStart.exe: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[07:41] <lloyd__> Jack_Sparrow: Thank you
[07:41] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, that's what I'm doing now. but with Fluxbox instead of xfce
[07:41] <Jim-Reaper> is the message I've just got trying to open an EXE file
[07:41] <oompaloompa> Pelo: it's /media/media when i sudo umount /media/media . . ."device is busy"    that's funny. . .the disk is *completely empty*
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok.
[07:41] <Jack_Sparrow> lloyd__: sudo fdisk -l > ~/Desktop/partition.layout.txt   will save a copy to your desktop
[07:42] <nojoints> oompaloompa; hm I've found 1 thing that is different
[07:42] <theone> no one is in there
[07:42] <oompaloompa> nojoints: what's that?
[07:42] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: so what command are you running to install flux?
[07:42] <vb> i need to set the JAVA_HOME env for tomcat 5.5, forums suggest path to be /usr/lib/j2sdk , but i dont have any j2sdk there
[07:42] <nojoints> oompaloompa; if you look at the end you got AddARGBGLX in the end
[07:42] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  busy means something is trying to access , restart the computer that shoudl kill all the apps
[07:42] <Jim-Reaper> why cant i open exe files
[07:42] <vocx> Jim-Reaper, exes are Windows exectuables, you cannot open them in Linux unless you use "wine"
[07:42] <steel_lady> somebody knows how to put subtitles in VLC???
[07:42] <vocx> !wine | Jim-Reaper
[07:42] <nojoints> oompaloompa; yours http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34319/ mine http://pastebin.com/m5843d923
[07:42] <ubotu> Jim-Reaper: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:42] <Pici> theone: Be patient.
[07:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Jim-Reaper: how are you trying to open them
[07:42] <Pelo> Jim-Reaper,  because you are using linux and exe are windows executables
[07:42] <Jim-Reaper> double click...
[07:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Jim-Reaper: Run them under wine perhaps
[07:43] <theone> ?
[07:43] <Jim-Reaper> ah...its a wndows file...doh
[07:43] <oompaloompa> Pelo: yeah that's what i'm trying to avoid. . .*sigh*  what the eff is trying to access an empty hard drive?  lol
[07:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Jim-Reaper: What program are you looking for.. as an example
[07:43] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, sudo aptitude install fluxbox
[07:43] <steel_lady> please???
[07:43] <Jim-Reaper> i d/l asmoothwall for a firewall and its part of the packazge
[07:43] <oompaloompa> nojoints: yes AddARGBGLXVisuals is a little fix so that beryl will draw the window decorations
[07:43] <nojoints> oompaloompa; if you look on both screen sections
[07:43] <vocx> !please | steel_lady
[07:43] <ubotu> steel_lady: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> abowen:
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[07:43] <vb> i need to set the JAVA_HOME env for tomcat 5.5, forums suggest path to be /usr/lib/j2sdk , but i dont have any j2sdk there
[07:43] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  could be a lot of things,  .trash, opened nautilus windows, etc
[07:43] <nojoints> oompaloompa; okok, well render then =P
[07:43] <oompaloompa> nojoints: it shouldn't affect your dualhead setup
[07:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Jim-Reaper: Did you check the repos?
[07:43] <SettlerX> hey people
[07:44] <oompaloompa> Pelo: right
[07:44] <SettlerX> i will burn Xubuntu 7.05 again.
[07:44] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, sorry. sudo aptitutde install
[07:44] <steel_lady> vocx, if I ask and nobody answers and I wait and wait, what should I do then?
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok, thats fine...
[07:44] <nojoints> oompaloompa kk
[07:44] <SettlerX> Should I check "close CD" checkbox?
[07:44] <macogw> SettlerX: well there's your trouble.  there isnt a 7.05
[07:44] <vocx> steel_lady, this is ubuntu support channel, not vlc support channel. Try first vlc documentation forums or mailing lists.
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: but that still isn't going to fix your problem, thats what i'm trying to tell you
[07:44] <Jim-Reaper> repos? this is my first day with llinux
[07:44] <SettlerX> macd: Such version exists :)
[07:44] <sehe> steel_lady: refrase the question. come back tomorrow, find a different channel more appropriate, or google a forum
[07:44] <vb> i need to set the JAVA_HOME env for tomcat 5.5, forums suggest path to be /usr/lib/j2sdk , but i dont have any j2sdk there
[07:44] <Pici> !repo | Jim-Reaper
[07:45] <ubotu> Jim-Reaper: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[07:45] <oompaloompa> Pelo: thanks, and actually, i'm glad. . .killing the X server was enough to do it
[07:45] <Jim-Reaper> it was an iso so I burned it to disk but it isnt starting when i shut dvd drawer
[07:45] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, sorry.  I miss understood
[07:45] <oompaloompa> Pelo: u said nautilus and i realized it was probably a program that relied on X
[07:45] <macogw> SettlerX: er no....there's 7.04 and there will be 7.10 but there's no 7.05
[07:45] <brohken> IndyGunFreak i went to that page before. installed the restricted formats
[07:45] <oompaloompa> Pelo: so. . .bloop
[07:45] <macogw> SettlerX: and yes, when burning you want to close the CD.  if you dont it thinks you're going to add more
[07:45] <brohken> any ideas?
[07:45] <Pelo> oompaloompa,  so it is ok now ?
[07:45] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, It will take me a while to but xubuntu back on. I'll try it and then try to reconfig the xserver
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: you get the white screen, when you boot in "normal".. mode.. Server Edition is only CLI...
[07:45] <oompaloompa> Pelo: yeah thanks
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: that is probably your best bet.
[07:46] <sehe> steel_lady: is that ok? I'm sorry i don't have the answer myself...
[07:46] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, ok... I'll do that
[07:46] <SettlerX> And what about simulating saving data to CD? Can it help to be sure everything burned OK?
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: i would reinstall Xubuntu, then boot back into safe mode, then run that reconfigre x command, and choose the vesa driver
[07:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Jim-Reaper: Did you use windows or another os to burn that.
[07:47] <macogw> SettlerX: just burn at like 4x and you should be ok
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: unless you plan to make some use of server edition.
[07:47] <SettlerX> 8x minimum on list :(
[07:47] <macogw> SettlerX: then go with that
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: you could also try fluxbuntu, if you like fluxbox.. http://fluxbox.org
[07:47] <macogw> SettlerX: thats why i use gnomebaker and not nautilus burner now :)  gnomebaker will go down to 1x i think
[07:47] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, yeah I want that, but cannot get it to complete the install
[07:47] <brohken> IndyGunFreak sorry did i do something wrong?
[07:48] <vocx> !minimal
[07:48] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: but be forwarned, fluxbuntu is a distro behind, and its current stable version is based on Edgy, and will not have a next release until Gutsy
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: i don't think so, why?
[07:48] <steel_lady> sehe I was hoping at least that somebody would suggest some other prohram. I have various problems on ubuntu, I have kept posts on ubuntu forums for a long time, nobody knew how to help me and I already passed days in googleng. I think I should return to windows, at least there I can get support
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok,.. again.. what type of install are you using?
[07:48] <theone> steel_lady u should just BSplayer Pro
[07:48] <brohken> IndyGunFreak because sound still doesnt work
[07:48] <CoasterMaster> Is there any way to order the Alternate Install CDs through Ship-It?
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> brohken: i have no idea..., it sounds like a codec issue though
[07:48] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, just using the livecd I downloaded off their site
[07:48] <oompaloompa> anybody know how i can get ufs read/write so i can pull some stuff and put some stuff on a bsd partition?
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok.. use the Alternate Install CD>
[07:48] <theone> Steel_lady hitting ctrl F which opens the file, then check the enable subtitle option box, from there u should be able to specify the path to the sub file when u hit the settings button?
[07:48] <Pelo> steel_lady, what's your issue ?
[07:49] <theone> BSplayer would be better though
[07:49] <hustlebird> anyone know what this means data_t has no member named 
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> abowen:   http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/xubuntu/7.04/release/
[07:49] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, where do I get that from them? and may i beg for that xserver code again?
[07:49] <steel_lady> Pelo, wait I will search for my forums topics
[07:49] <sauvin> hustlebird, in what context?
[07:49] <hustlebird> trying to install mozplugger
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: hold on, first go to the link above, and just pay attention, look at the system requirements for the desktop CD, and then tell me why you can't get it to work.
[07:49] <oompaloompa> anybody know how i can get ufs read/write so i can pull some stuff and put some stuff on a bsd partition?
[07:49] <hustlebird> after i do make install
[07:49] <illriginal> Hey guys, I want to do an update, but i need to back up my system just in case update crashes. How would I go about doin that?
[07:50] <SettlerX> 8x can be enough or should i find a way to burn with 4x?
[07:50] <hustlebird> same msg for every file
[07:50] <jrib> !backup > illriginal (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: do you see what i'm getting at?
[07:50] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, yeah I see what your getting at
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> so now we know why you can't do the live install
[07:50] <jrib> hustlebird: mozplugger is in the universe repository, you shouldn't be compiling it.  Just use your favorite package manager to install it
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> now, scroll down, and look at the alternat einstall...
[07:51] <shardz> Hey, I just booted up the install/livecd on my amd64 machine (amd64 ubuntu disk). X wouldn't start and said : "(WW) VESA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:3:0:0) found. (EE) VESA(0): Cannot read V_BIOS (3) (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have usable configuration.

[07:51] <ericvmelo> I have a prom
[07:51] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[07:51] <shardz> I have an nvidia geforce 7600 GS
[07:51] <hustlebird> what is it under?
[07:51] <jrib> hustlebird: the package is "mozplugger"
[07:51] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[07:51] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, yeah your right I'll do that
[07:51] <Pelo> shardz,  you'll need to use the alternate install cd ,  nvidia and ati donT have FOSS drivers so they donT' work with the live cd
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: not trying to be a dick, but you can't expect the live CD to work, when you don't have the system requirements
[07:52] <shardz> Pelo: oh, ok
[07:52] <hustlebird> thanks didn't know, or else i wouldv'e done that
[07:52] <Pelo> galpa,  /join #ubuntu-es
[07:52] <shardz> Pelo: but everything should run fine then?
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: ok... use the alternate install CD, and if that doesn't work(which i suspect it will).... then you can work on reconfiguring x
[07:52] <shardz> Pelo: Does the Alternate install CD have x?
[07:52] <ericvmelo> I have a problem with my sound card. I've done everything possible already and my sound still doesn't work. :(
[07:52] <Pelo> shardz, you'll be able to install and after that you can install proper drivers for the nvidia card
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> shardz: it installs X, but its a text based installer
[07:52] <Flannel> shardz: it doesn't install through X, but it does install X
[07:52] <steel_lady> Pelo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=519300
[07:52] <Nutubuntu> Pelo, galpa is already in #ubuntu-es ... goodness only knows why he keeps saying that
[07:52] <abowen> IIndyGunFreak, ok. would you mind giving me that code once again
[07:52] <shardz> Ok thanks
[07:53] <sikx> hi
[07:53] <Pelo> shardz, is is text based installer,  not command line but it has dialogs
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:53] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, just in case i need it
[07:53] <shardz> So how does anyone use the livecd?
[07:53] <sikx> 3d-desktop doesnt seem to work anymore here.... i have it activated in Desktop-effects and it worked before
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> abowen: sorry i didn't name you, its sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:53] <steel_lady> Pelo, this also: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=519070
[07:53] <sauvin> I used the liveCD to install ubuntu.
[07:53] <sikx> but now i only have 1 panel anymore and if i change it to 4 or so it just doesnt work as 3d
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> shardz: the live CD works for lots of people, but not for everyone, thus the alt. install cd
[07:53] <abowen> IndyGunFreak, thanks
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> np
[07:54] <brohken> can someone help me get my sound working on my thinkpad?
[07:54] <vocx> steel_lady, you upgraded recently? From 6.10 to 7.04?
[07:54] <shardz> IndyGunFreak: who _doesn't_ have nvidia or ati?
[07:54] <fireballC1> compuer windows xp service pack 2 has mass viruses it needs reformated but the guy will not do it he is set on fixing it, it has two harddrives one of which has ever been used would it be possible to install ubuntu on the second harddrive and then scan te other HDD from ubuntu?
[07:54] <SettlerX> Maybe my CD-ROM device is broken? One time even Xubuntu started correctly.
[07:54] <hustlebird> what repository is mozplugger under, can only find moxplugger
[07:54] <crimsun> brohken: summarise the issue(s)
[07:54] <Pelo> steel_lady, the first one fail to fetch,  doesnLT look like an ubuntu official mirror to me , so I can't do anytingabout it,  even then sometimes servers go down you need to try again
[07:54] <jrib> hustlebird: universe
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> shardz: my laptop has intel graphics, but the graphics chipset is only a small reasoning on why the live cd may not boot.
[07:54] <steel_lady> vocx, no, it does not permit me to upgrade!
[07:54] <Pici> fireballC1: That would definitly work.
[07:54] <hustlebird> yeah, searched all
[07:54] <fireballC1> what program would i use to scan it?
[07:55] <CapIno> I don't find Pidgin for Ubuntu at their pages. ;(
[07:55] <Pici> fireballC1: I actually just installed Ubuntu on one of my extra harddrives so I could backup my fubar'ed windows install
[07:55] <steel_lady> Pelo, I tried several times, which server and path should I put?
[07:55] <jrib> hustlebird: what is the output of 'sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install mozplugger'?
[07:55] <fandeholly> hi everyone, i have issues booting my laptop and i was hoping someone could help me. The system is stopping when trying to fsck the file systems and do nothing
[07:55] <Pici> CapIno: Pidgin isnt in Feisty.
[07:55] <GreyGhost> hello  all
[07:55] <hustlebird> try that and tell ya
[07:55] <IndyGunFreak> CapIno: its not in feisty, but there's a compiled .deb on a site somewhere.
[07:55] <GreyGhost> how does one check include paths?
[07:55] <Pelo> steel_lady,  reading your second one , looks to me like you got ppl trying to help you, don't say you didnT' get any support
[07:55] <sikx> whyy doesnt 3d-desktop work anymore
[07:55] <CapIno> Pici: So I can't install it?
[07:55] <Nutubuntu> 1130 nicks and he says hello all ... GreyGhost you have to greet us each by name :P
[07:55] <fireballC1> Pici: what pragram should i use to scan it with?
[07:56] <steel_lady> Pelo, I had ZERO result
[07:56] <steel_lady> elo, I am not complaining that people do not want to help but they don't know how
[07:56] <yoluca> hi all
[07:56] <Pelo> steel_lady,  command should have been  sudo dpkg --remove --force-<packagename>
[07:56] <yoluca> need help adding some extra repos
[07:56] <GreyGhost> Nutubuntu , dont have that much time sorry...
[07:57] <Pelo> steel_lady,  make that   sudo dpkg --remove --force <packagename>
[07:57] <steel_lady> Pelo I did that and nothing
[07:57] <Pici> fireballC1: I think clamav can detect & clean windows viruses.
[07:57] <macogw> steel_lady: whats wrong
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> Nutubuntu: lol.. thats a good one.
[07:57] <Pici> !ntfs-3g | fireballC1 you might also need this
[07:57] <ubotu> fireballC1 you might also need this: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[07:57] <Nutubuntu> fireballC1, you might also want to consider a live CD intended for virus scans and the like - bitdefender maybe, or something like that
[07:57] <Pelo> steel_lady,  the command you were told in the thread was not correct as far as I know , try mine
[07:57] <hustlebird> that worked, thanx!
[07:57] <Pici> CapIno: Not out of the Ubuntu repos.
[07:58] <fireballC1> i think the virus might be storm worm and it looks as though there are several trojans
[07:58] <brohken> crimsun, i can't seem to get any sound coming from the pc when i play a test ogg file in totem and vlc
[07:58] <CapIno> Pici: kthxbye
[07:58] <hustlebird> will mozplugger make shockwave work in wine?
[07:58] <Pici> CapIno: I have heard of people installing it from a deb from Getdeb.net, but I cant vounh for that.
[07:58] <vocx> steel_lady, why do you think you have a firewall problem?
[07:58] <skyfaller> hey folks... I want some help installing Ubuntu on my Macbook Pro... is this the right channel?
[07:58] <Pelo> steel_lady,  in anycase when you start getting unsolvable errors like that, a clean install is a good idea, and make notes of every mod you make afterwards
[07:58] <hustlebird> that's what i was told just making sure
[07:58] <jrib> hustlebird: you don't need mozplugger for shockwave.  Just install firefox through wine and then install shockwave in the browser
[07:58] <Avt3kk> whats the path for home?

[07:59] <dissection> Flannel: Well i closed the terminal window, waited a while and it still let me use sudo without password

[08:08] <oompaloompa> sauvin: thanks for the link, i think it might do the trick
[08:08] <sauvin> PriceChild, the main thrust of my convo with oompaloompa is to point out that recent kernels apparently support ufs.
[08:08] <illriginal> Hey guys, I want to do an update, but i need to back up my system just in case update crashes. How would I go about doin that?
[08:09] <Pelo> Meroigo,  terminal  sudo apt-get autoclean

[08:09] <illriginal> there's nothin usefull here.

[08:09] <yoluca> the refresh rate for my nvidia geforce 7900 its only 50 Hz any idea how to fix this ?
[08:09] <Lars_G> Hi all.
[08:10] <Meroigo> Pelo: OK:)
[08:10] <yoluca> i did installed the restricted driver

[08:10] <oompaloompa> sauvin: and. . .
[08:10] <Lars_G> Question, has anyone put together a deb packaged ubuntu-compatible (that is not system shattering) 2.6.2x kernel with the new process control in it?
[08:10] <oompaloompa> sauvin: a simple sudo modprobe ufs and the problem is resolved
[08:10] <Lars_G> I don't want to compile it all.
[08:10] <oompaloompa> sauvin: thank you
[08:10] <sauvin> You're very welcome. Thank you for making me understand that if I want to install freebsd, I am free to do so now.
[08:11] <crimsun> brohken: you need a newer version of ALSA.
[08:11] <rockets> Are there any good central management tools for linux? Like in windows I can manage all my pcs from a windows server, change settings, that kind of stuff.
[08:11] <Nutubuntu> yoluca, refresh rate is a ppty of your monitor I believe, not your video card, to be set per your monitor specs in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:11] <brohken> crimsun how do i update?
[08:11] <crimsun> brohken: (a newer version is in Gutsy Tribe 4)
[08:11] <Rabbitbunny> Okay, I screwed up my install, bad I think. I can't seem to burn a good cdr so I did a netboot install. I have no GUI, and no idea how to get it. Hints?
[08:12] <Flannel> Rabbitbunny: Alright, well, first thing, do you get a prompt, and can you login?
[08:12] <illriginal> Can someone recommend me a good specific Back Up program, please?
[08:12] <brohken> crimsun isn't that the new ubuntu? i need to install a new OS>>
[08:12] <Nutubuntu> Rabbitbunny, say a little more about your situation - what happens when you boot up?
[08:12] <oompaloompa> sauvin: no problem. . .and by the way, pc-bsd is pretty solid, i installed it this afternoon, but before i get kicked out and told to go to the ot channel, i'll stop this line of conversation ;-)
[08:12] <sauvin> This is !@#$@ The external Western Digital will NOT mount until you have had the computer on, but the drive OFF, for a while.
[08:12] <Pelo> later folks
[08:12] <Rabbitbunny> Flannel: yes. I'm quite sure this part is okay, man, sudo and shutdown work.
[08:12] <Nutubuntu> Be well Pelo
[08:12] <Lars_G> rockets: it might take more work than in a windows machine, but you can do even more with linux in a network than with windows.
[08:12] <crimsun> brohken: no, you don't need to install a new OS.  Just compile a new version of ALSA.
[08:13] <CoasterMaster> illriginal:  what kind of backups are you doing?  complete system? few files?
[08:13] <Flannel> Rabbitbunny: alright, you were installing Ubuntu? or kubuntu or what?  We'll just see if our install of that goes without a hitch
[08:13] <brohken> how can i do that? im not sure what compile even is
[08:13] <sauvin> oompaloompa, you're welcome to join me in #ubuntu-offtopic :D
[08:13] <crimsun> brohken: the forum has a how-to.
[08:13] <illriginal> complete system CoasterMaster
[08:13] <Lars_G> rockets: Only advice from my own experience, if you will have an hybrid system, (windows, linux and maybe os x client machines) it's still better to let a windows server be the domain admin.
[08:13] <oompaloompa> lmao
[08:13] <rockets> Lars_G, Yeah I realize that, I'm fine with having to configure it all. But I'm wondering WHAT I can use.
[08:13] <Rabbitbunny> Flannel: Ubuntu desktop
[08:13] <Lars_G> rockets: Depends what you want to do and how.

[08:13] <illriginal> CoasterMaster, I'm doin an update and I have a feelin it's not gonna recognize my nvidia card lol
[08:13] <adalberto> hola
[08:13] <Flannel> Rabbitbunny: alright, so, `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop`
[08:13] <brohken> crimsun can you link to the page?
[08:13] <rockets> Lars_G, but I'm talking about an all Linux enviornment
[08:13] <Lars_G> rockets: For centralized authentication OpenLDAP is a common choice
[08:13] <rockets> Lars_G, I'm not just talking about authentication, I mean actual management.
[08:13] <CoasterMaster> illriginal: failing that method, look into sbackup
[08:14] <Lars_G> good question
[08:14] <illriginal> sbvackup?
[08:14] <crimsun> brohken: no (not access to it ATM)
[08:14] <illriginal> sackup*
[08:14] <crimsun> brohken: just search the forum; it's bound to come up
[08:14] <craigbass1976>  When I type www.sweet.com in my browser, I'm taken to the page being served up by localhost.  Is that normal?  Nothing in /etc/hosts about sweet.com, so it's kind of weird Running apache2, and I've done it on two boxes, which are both running feisty and have identical /etc/hosts files
[08:14] <Rabbitbunny> Flannel: Oh. that would install gnome.
[08:14] <Lars_G> rockets: Well i've not managed full centralized management yet. I'd begin with basic distributed programs with it's own etc dir in a server hosted manner mounted by clients over NFS
[08:14] <adalberto> hola
[08:15] <rockets> Lars_G, hmm
[08:15] <rockets> I know Canonical is working on a Windows Server-like product to do this, that's web based. Kinda like RHN. But Its not out yet.
[08:15] <Lars_G> rockets: Plus LDAP is more than just authentication, it is also a generic store where you could easily centralize some settings, problem is finding daemon or client programs that allow reading from ldap

[08:16] <sauvin> Assuming .7 is later than 0.9, maybe symlink it?
[08:16] <Rabbitbunny> Flannel: the screen quit scrolling and I'm back to a prmpt. How to start gnome?

[08:17] <oompaloompa> i need a good howto on compiling a custom kernel. . .i'd like to use both the low latency and preemptive patches, because after some homework, i've found that the combination of the two brings latency down drastically. . .
[08:17] <sauvin> Avt3kk, it's a way of making a file with a different name without renaming the original file.
[08:17] <Avt3kk> can I copy and paste it? :/
[08:17] <jaydoggg> i did a "MAKE" in the madwifi dir and I get this error "no such file, and build is missing, please set kernelpath.  Stop.  Anyone?
[08:17] <Flannel> oompaloompa: I think you're misunderstanding what lowlatency does
[08:18] <oompaloompa> Flannel: why do you think?
[08:18] <Flannel> Rabbitbunny: try ctrl-alt-f7 to get to GDM, if not, make sure gdm is running, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:18] <sauvin> Why do that? if you do an ln -s oldfile newfile, you still have oldfile, but you have newfile, which is just a stub that refers to oldfile.
[08:18] <rockets> Is there a good way to list currently running services other then manually parsing ps -aef
[08:18] <Rabbitbunny> Flannel: thank you
[08:18] <vocx> jaydoggg, I don't think you actually need to compile. Maybe it is in the repos?
[08:18] <Avt3kk> im confused
[08:19] <Avt3kk> cant I just install .6
[08:19] <Avt3kk> cant find it
[08:19] <jaydoggg> vocx: how would I do that?
[08:19] <nivekc1> i need a antivirus program for ubuntu that will scan for winodws viruses
[08:19] <nivekc1> any ideas?

[08:20] <Pici> Goooner: ctrl-alt-left/right arrow
[08:20] <PriceChild> Goooner, ctrl+alt+left/right
[08:20] <Goooner> thx
[08:20] <PriceChild> jaydoggg, 5.04 has reached EOL and is no longer supported. Please upgrade
[08:20] <vocx> jaydoggg, that is currently unsupported version. Better to upgrade at least to 6.06
[08:20] <Pici> jaydoggg: 5.04 repos are no longer online. You should !upgrade or concider reinstalling with a new version
[08:20] <Nutubuntu> nivekc1, you might also want to consider a live CD intended for virus scans and the like - bitdefender maybe, or something like that

[08:22] <else-> Avt3kk, check out packages.ubuntu.com
[08:22] <Avt3kk> ook ty
[08:22] <unagi> Avt3kk:  its in mine
[08:22] <Pici> Avt3kk: You need 0.9.6? why not the latest version?
[08:22] <unagi> Avt3kk: do u have universe and multivers enabled?
[08:22] <vocx> jaydoggg, yes, although it would be nice to use a lighter desktop environment like xcfe
[08:22] <Pici> jaydoggg: That should be good.
[08:22] <Avt3kk> um not universe
[08:22] <Avt3kk> says not free stuff
[08:22] <Pici> Avt3kk: What version are you using?
[08:22] <Avt3kk> dapper
[08:22] <jaydoggg> vocx: so thats xubuntu right?
[08:22] <unagi> not free stuff what does that mean
[08:22] <Avt3kk> it has safe boot
[08:22] <Avt3kk> dapper has safe boot great for radeon sapphire x800
[08:23] <BarCamper> jaydoggg<< im running 7.04 in pc wit pentium II and Ram 128 ... lol
[08:23] <Avt3kk> I guess it shows packages you got to buy :/
[08:23] <Pici> Avt3kk: Dapper doesnt have 0.9.6 only 0.9.7 and 0.9.8
[08:23] <vocx> jaydoggg, yes. You can also install the Gnome or KDE desktop and install Xfce later. But in your case, might try the light one first. Or even another Linux distro.
[08:23] <jaydoggg> BarCamper: thats gotta crawl ?
[08:23] <Avt3kk> can I install it
[08:23] <Pici> !find libssl0 dapper | Avt3kk

[08:23] <unagi> how do u get videos to stream in browser?
[08:23] <BarCamper> running ok !!
[08:24] <Pici> Avt3kk: They're all in main, so you should just be able to `sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8`
[08:24] <Avt3kk> is there a messeneger that will use .8?
[08:24] <Avt3kk> its installed
[08:24] <Pici> Avt3kk: What kind of messenger?

[10:39] <malnilion> lol
[10:39] <Sretsnom> ConstyXIV: my wireless together is gone now.
[10:39] <m0u5e> wolferine :D
[10:39] <wolferine> arooni, did you have a chance to configure the card during the OS install?
[10:39] <ConstyXIV> Sretsnom: pull up a console and "iwconfig", see if it gives you anything
[10:39] <malnilion> Bam, there goes a ban :)
[10:39] <Sretsnom> nope
[10:40] <Sretsnom> ConstyXIV, nothing
[10:40] <uri> what package do I need to open rar?
[10:40] <sharperguy> help!
[10:40] <sharperguy> my mouse is on drgus
[10:40] <xero9364> uri: unrar
[10:40] <sharperguy> *drugs
[10:40] <Paddy_EIRE> hey ompaul, are you going to be getting involved with ubuntu-ie
[10:40] <uri> so just apt-get install unrar?
[10:40] <arooni> wolferine: i dont think i touched it during install
[10:40] <wolferine> sharperguy, keep it to one lines, if possible, please
[10:40] <xero9364> uri: yes
[10:40] <sharperguy> wolferine, soz
[10:40] <uri> thanks
[10:40] <xero9364> It's command line only, I think.
[10:40] <sakra> arooni, are you that device is working properly... it's very strange
[10:40] <xero9364> You have to get used to that,
[10:40] <wolferine> arooni, did the install setup your network driver then?
[10:41] <m0u5e> how do i search for a file again using term?
[10:41] <blight> all, trying to install some firmware - what's happened to hotplug in 7.04?
[10:41] <wolferine> m0u5e, locate
[10:41] <malnilion> sharperguy, speed, heroine, pot?
[10:41] <arooni> wolferine: i had to do alternate cd install
[10:41] <ompaul> Paddy_EIRE, there is a long answer yes, but the short answer is no
[10:41] <m0u5e> weolferine; oh yes, thx :D
[10:41] <wolferine> arooni, which should still setup your network card
[10:41] <Paddy_EIRE> ompaul: lol :P
[10:41] <sharperguy> yeah i think its fixed now, but my mouse was moving out of controll and clicking things i didnt want it to click
[10:41] <xero9364> sharperguy: Is the mouse going too fast or too slow?
[10:41] <arooni> wolferine: cuz video driver was messed up
[10:41] <fiXXXerMe1> Why does ubuntu have a 127.0.1.1 hostname line in /etc/hosts?
[10:41] <Paddy_EIRE> ompaul: to busy I take it
[10:41] <wolferine> arooni, lspci (do you see the network card listed) -- note do not post this output into the channel
[10:42] <arooni> wolferine: should i reinstall thealtnerate cd... and ahve the ethernet cable in when i re install
[10:42] <malnilion> fiXXXerMe1, because it has to
[10:42] <ConstyXIV> Sretsnom: ok, install the "ndisgtk" package, then go to System -> Administration -> Windows Wireless Drivers.  install your drivers from there.
[10:42] <xero9364> arooni: Yes.
[10:42] <fiXXXerMe1> For what?
[10:42] <ompaul> Paddy_EIRE, take it to pm
[10:42] <arooni> xero9364: so you advocate re installing via alternate cd
[10:42] <malnilion> fiXXXerMe1, that's your localhost, a lot of apps need it.
[10:42] <xero9364> arooni: yes.
[10:42] <fiXXXerMe1> malnilion: 127.0.1.1, not 127.0.0.1
[10:43] <xero9364> Some tart put it there. It isn't in mine.
[10:43] <wolferine> arooni, good luck listening to that guy
[10:43] <Radical> hmm
[10:43] <Radical> sakra?
[10:43] <sakra> yap
[10:43] <Radical> big trouble :D
[10:43] <Radical> i tried your configure
[10:44] <malnilion> fiXXXerMe1, good question, but I really wouldn't remove it.
[10:44] <Radical> but it crashed at umm.. just after the refresh rate.. after setting the bit rate
[10:44] <xero9364> Do you have 2 network cards, fiXXXerMe1?
[10:44] <fiXXXerMe1> Negative.
[10:44] <xero9364> One for wired, another for wireless?
[10:44] <benanz1> I'm looking at the Meizu M6 MiniPlayer  -- anyone with experience?  it plays OGG/Xvid - filemanager-based syncing - it sounds great
[10:44] <Ashfire908> where are the login template things stored?
[10:44] <sakra> Radical: crashed as in lost signal for monitor?
[10:44] <Radical> after i got that error
[10:44] <Radical> umm
[10:44] <Radical> well the configure crashed
[10:44] <Radical> not a real pc crash
[10:44] <elcasey> I need a way to burn images that consist of an MDS file and multiple I00, etc. files. Mdf2iso doesn't seem to like it.
[10:45] <sakra> ah.. k
[10:45] <Radical> the configure wizzard just ended
[10:45] <Radical> attempt to overwrite or something
[10:45] <Radical> after that i tried opening it manual
[10:45] <sakra> xorg.conf file
[10:45] <Radical> but it was emtpy..
[10:45] <Radical> yes
[10:45] <Radical> it was empty :D

[10:46] <benn92647> how do i completely remove wine from my ubuntu install
[10:46] <malnilion> slocate wine and delete everything :)
[10:46] <xero9364> benn92647: apt-get remove wine (as root) (or with a sudo in front)
[10:46] <xero9364> actually,
[10:46] <sakra> are you sure that you open the file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[10:46] <xero9364> benn92647: apt-get remove --purgew wine (as root) (or with a sudo in front)
[10:46] <Radical> sakra: yes
[10:46] <garryFre> What is wrong when you try wine, what program crashes?
[10:46] <xero9364> --purge*
[10:46] <Radical> sakra: sudo nano /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[10:47] <vocx> "aptitude purge wine" and then remove the rest by "locate wine"
[10:47] <xero9364> X11 not x11
[10:47] <xero9364> It's actually case sensitive.
[10:47] <Radical> heheh.. is it real? :D
[10:47] <garryFre> or uninstall using package magaher
[10:47] <garryFre> er manager
[10:47] <Esteth> Where do i put programs in ubuntu if they don't come in a .deb or tell me where to put them? The program seems to work wherever it is, but i'd like to place it in a conventional spot
[10:47] <Radical> sakra, after opening, waht should i change? :)
[10:48] <bruenig> Esteth, /opt
[10:48] <xero9364> Esteth: /bin or /opt
[10:48] <sakra> Radical: Try using the VESA drivers
[10:48] <Radical> what* srry for spelling.. my fingers act faster as my brain
[10:48] <speaker219> Can somebody help me? If I don't boot into a GUI, i get the terminal, you know, calssic white-on-black stuff. I notced that if i boot into "recovery mode" the font is different and more easily readable. Is there a command or something to do this any time? Thanks.
[10:48] <meoblast001> hello..... i have a problem... ive used the tar Flash player and apt-get Flash player for Firefox and everytime flash player uploads a file, it kills firefox..... i was told to perform a fresh install of firefox but that doesnt work...... please help me =(
[10:48] <Esteth> bruenig/xero9364: Thanks :)
[10:48] <bruenig> not /bin
[10:48] <mkennedy> Esteth: /usr/local is for that
[10:48] <speaker219> meoblast001: it is a known bug with flash player
[10:48] <bruenig> there is no reason it should be in /bin
[10:48] <bruenig> that is where system binaries go
[10:48] <xero9364> Fine. /usr/bin
[10:49] <sakra> !vesa
[10:49] <ubotu> vesa is the default video driver if X can't find a better one. Also see !x
[10:49] <Esteth> mkennedy: Ok. i've now been told /opt, /bin, and /usr/bin :P
[10:49] <malnilion> Or /usr/local/bin :P
[10:49] <meoblast001> speaker219: Windows doesnt have this.... can you help me get Windows back... that will be really hard to do
[10:49] <xero9364> dont use /bin
[10:49] <stefg> meoblast001: use a fresh profile
[10:49] <Radical> sakra.. was that for me?
[10:49] <mkennedy> Esteth: /opt or /usr/local, but definitely not /bin or /usr/bin
[10:49] <rapha> Hi all!
[10:49] <Radical> sakra: should i add that into the conf file?
[10:49] <meoblast001> stefg: ??????????
[10:49] <rapha> My WLAN has stopped working, can somebody help me?
[10:49] <malnilion> Esteth, the big thing is that conventions differ from distro to distro
[10:49] <PriceChild> !away > systemerror
[10:50] <sakra> Radical: you can just look at the file and understand. First uncomment the vesa module
[10:50] <Meroigo> why doesn't the smbfs paths I have put in fstab mount at startup? this is my fstab file: http://www.pastebin.ca/663706 .. if i type "sudo mount -a", they all mount... but i want it to do it automatically on startup.
[10:50] <sakra> Then, in the driver section, change the driver to "vesa"
[10:50] <ProN00b> when using remote desktop on ubuntu the third functions of my keys don't work (like {|}<>[]  and so on), can anyone help ?
[10:50] <Esteth> mkennedy: I think i'll go for /opt then, more central, and /usr/local seems to be a duplicate of /usr itself :P
[10:50] <malnilion> Esteth, /opt or /usr/local are good
[10:50] <meoblast001> stefg: what does that mean?
[10:50] <sakra> I can't remember the exact section name.. I think it's Driver
[10:50] <stefg> meoblast001: run firefox -profilemanager from cli and add a new profile
[10:50] <xero9364> sakra: Yes.
[10:51] <Esteth> malnilion: I'd expect as such, seeing as the community seems to be mostly different people from distro to distro. I think i'll go for /opt then, thanks :)
[10:51] <Radical> xero9364 <3
[10:51] <sakra> Then, try restarting the gdm.. (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart)
[10:51] <Radical> hmm
[10:51] <Radical> restart or start?
[10:51] <meoblast001> stefg: that just launched firefox
[10:51] <litb> ok
[10:51] <benn92647> I hate the wine people
[10:51] <sakra> Use restart.. it doesn't do any harm ;)
[10:51] <litb> guys, how can i see which ubuntu version i drive?
[10:51] <litb> which commando?
[10:51] <Pelo> benn92647,  I'm sure wine feels the same
[10:52] <Pelo> !version
[10:52] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[10:52] <PriceChild> !version | litb
[10:52] <ubotu> litb: please see above
[10:52] <rapha> benn92647: you'd better not, they do an awful lot of work.
[10:52] <Radical> sakra: :D ok, so i open the file, search for umm !veto? and then i uncomment it, then umm... what again?
[10:52] <vocx> Esteth, yes /usr/local tries to conform to the same structure as /usr. And /usr/local/bin is already in the PATH. But /opt is completely empty so you know what you put in it is yours. Also you need to add the directory to the PATH.
[10:53] <Pelo> anyone knwo if stuartlittle got is grub menu booting windoww fine ? I had to leave in a rush,  visitors
[10:53] <garryFre> Wine seems to run WoW for me, I guess I'm just lucky.
[10:53] <zcat[1] > i hate the fact that wine even has to exist... which is not really wine's fault..
[10:53] <Esteth> vocx: I'm trying to stay out of the path here, to be honest, i prefer explicitly telling the shell where to look for stuff most of the time, unless it's really basic
[10:53] <garryFre> :)
[10:53] <zerokill88> wine sucks
[10:53] <xero9364> Its Microsuck's fault.
[10:53] <dgjones> can anybody access ubuntuguide.org at the minute? i can't access it & seems to be offline - could somebody check for me, thanks
[10:53] <xero9364> That's whose fault it is.
[10:53] <garryFre> Yeah, you right about that.
[10:53] <stefg> meoblast001: that's firefox -ProfileManager
[10:53] <vocx> Pelo, a what a name!                nope.
[10:53] <garryFre> Migrainesoft
[10:53] <Esteth> dgjones: I had trouble with ubuntuguide.org a few hours ago, so i don't think it's just you
[10:53] <Pelo> benn92647,  start by sobering up , and paying attention to the advice given, you'll see everything will start wroking properly
[10:54] <Radical>  sakra: :D ok, so i open the file, search for umm !veto? and then i uncomment it, then umm... what again?
[10:54] <zcat[1] > wine emulates windows. windows sucks, therefore wine basically has to suck by definition
[10:54] <dgjones> Esteth, thanks
[10:54] <masinger> Is there a special channel for desktop related questions? Or am I in the right place?
[10:54] <garryFre> loL
[10:54] <xero9364> Micr0$oft would be awesome, because everything would be 0$
[10:54] <rapha> zcat[1] : actually it doesn't _emulate_
[10:54] <zerokill88> wine blows!!!
[10:54] <malnilion> zcat[1] , Wine Is Not an Emulator :P
[10:54] <zcat[1] > nitpick!!
[10:54] <sakra> Radical: in the Driver section, use the vesa driver
[10:54] <garryFre> That's a good one zcat[1] 
[10:54] <Meroigo> why doesn't the smbfs paths I have put in fstab mount at startup? this is my fstab file: http://www.pastebin.ca/663706 .. if i type "sudo mount -a", they all mount... but i want it to do it automatically on startup.

[10:54] <Radical> sakra :ok, so thats in the configuration wizzard again?
[10:54] <zcat[1] > wine presents the windows API and the windows API sucks. Happy?
[10:54] <politik> Is there a way to run an X server on my windows box, connect to my linux box, run some apps, and then disconnect and leave my apps and X session running, so I can restart the X server later? something like what VNC does?
[10:55] <garryFre> It don't blow as bad as windows. I've been running world of warpedcraft in wine, ever since I tried it I won't go back
[10:55] <zerokill88> Why do i autmatically mount my partitions at start up, the icons on my desktop are getting anoyying

[10:56] <sakra> no. It's in the xorg.conf file
[10:56] <meoblast001> stefg: how will this help my problem
[10:56] <Radical> well ok
[10:56] <xero9364> garryFre: Everyone will flame me for this, but I use Cedega SVN.

[10:58] <badpenguin87> Stupid question..what is the command to move one directory into another?\
[10:58] <Esteth> zerokill88: GIMP lets me make flash movies like Flash CS3 does? I didn't know! I do know that Flash CS3 doesn't work with wine at the moment, but i think some past versions do. Dreamweaver also certainly does, and while i prefer emacs to dreamweaver, there's lots of people who want WYSIWYG and low-configuration
[10:58] <zcat[1] > btw his wifi is still only half-working in Windows, brand new install and OEM drivers; it's working 100% in linux. Go figure..

[10:58] <Lamego> davetarmac,  rm -rf ~/.Trash
[10:58] <m0u5e> my poor wireless card wont work cause they took wl_apsta.o down from borked the other page
[10:58] <Lamego> but use it with care
[10:59] <alejandrogarz> thanx... im having some trouble with compiz... i already insalled it.. but when i put "compiz --replace" in the cmd line it appears this error : Fatal: Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support
[10:59] <alejandrogarz> Checks indicate that it's impossible to start compiz on your system.
[10:59] <Lamego> a typo can cause a disaster
[10:59] <dann2> sorry... i'm just so frustraded
[10:59] <xero9364> alejandrogarz: You either don't have direct rendering, or your video card is very old.
[10:59] <zerokill88> Esteth ya, i just got over windows and all the errors it gives you ALL the time, i prefer linux
[10:59] <Fern> Just wondering: I'm thinking of getting Ubuntu because I've heard so much good about it. But whats the difference between this, Ubuntu, and other OS's like Windows?
[10:59] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz what card you on?
[11:00] <alejandrogarz> my videocard is intel 945 gm i think so
[11:00] <davetarmac> Lamego: Cheers - not sure if it's worked mind.
[11:00] <xero9364> Fern: These OS's beat the holy living (insert awesome expletive) out of Windows.
[11:00] <alejandrogarz> i have an hp dv1710us
[11:00] <Fern> Xero: Why is that?
[11:00] <zcat[1] > anyhow, I just wanted to rant. I spend an hour getting linux going and about 6 hours on Windows+drivers+avg+ff+tb+OOo to make it barely useable
[11:00] <davetarmac> Lamego: I deleted stuff from a USB drive, but now it keeps telling me there is stuff in the wastebin
[11:00] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz: i mean the graphics card?
[11:00] <xero9364> They are more stable, harder to hack, and can be very easy to use.
[11:00] <Lamego> Dave123, so it is not ~/.Trash
[11:00] <duke_> i cant reinstall the grub menu dont show up or start windows or start ubuntu windows is hda3 ubuntu is hda1 somebody helps?
[11:00] <Lamego> is is the .Trash on the drive mount point
[11:01] <zcat[1] > be nice if the bastard paid me too... :)
[11:01] <Lamego> or just browse to it
[11:01] <Lamego> and press "CTRL-H"
[11:01] <Esteth> zerokill88: I'm going the same way. While windows is nice for the same reason a dell is nice (no configuration, just plug a few cables in), linux seems to surpass windows in every other way, other than software and hardware compatibility, which is improving all the time (partially thanks to wine :P)
[11:01] <Lamego> to show the .Trash folder
[11:01] <Fern> Are there any good programs for Ubuntu?
[11:01] <zcat[1] > " (no configuration, just plug a few cables in)" -- WTF did you just read what I wrote?!!
[11:01] <alejandrogarz> in my hp support says i have this card:  				   				   				   				
[11:01] <alejandrogarz> 
[11:01] <alejandrogarz>    	Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset Family Driver
[11:01] <IndyGunFreak> Fern: what type of program do you want?
[11:01] <xero9364> Fern: Xchat, Gimp, Firefox, to name 3 good ones.
[11:02] <rapha> Fern: define 'good'
[11:02] <zerokill88> Esteth ya thats true it is nice once and a while to be able to plug and play everything, i linux could be more user friendly, but what they say it is and if you cant compile dont use linux,lol
[11:02] <Fern> I like Firefox
[11:02] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz: you should be able to run compiz
[11:02] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz: a little slow, but thats the same card i got
[11:02] <xero9364> Fern: Ubuntu comes with it default.
[11:02] <zcat[1] > SEVEN drivers disks .. no onboard network, no sound, no PCI card sound, no wifi, no printer, no scanner, ... NOTHING worked in windows without a driver..
[11:02] <PriceChild> alejandrogarz, that card'll work out of the box unless you broke it
[11:02] <Lamego> Fern, Appications -> Add/Remove (Plenty)
[11:02] <Fern> I'm into graphic design and digital creation in general. TBH i'm not a huge fan of GIMP.
[11:03] <IndyGunFreak> Xchat, Firefox, Gimp, Openoffice, Pidgin, Totem, VLC, Audacious, Mplayer, there'sa few
[11:03] <duke_> i cant reinstall the grub, menu dont show up, or start windows or start ubuntu, windows is hda3, and ubuntu is hda1 somebody helps?
[11:03] <zcat[1] > and everything but the nvidia VGA worked OTB in Linux..
[11:03] <Fern> But you can get all them for Windows right?

[11:03] <zerokill88> WHATS THE COMMAND TO SHOW MY PARTITIONS???
[11:03] <zcat[1] > but I didn't NEED any of them for Linux
[11:03] <Pici> !caps | zerokill88
[11:03] <ubotu> zerokill88: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:03] <fellacious> etherape is saying my computer is getting connections from all over the place.  but!  i don't have any p2p programs active...
[11:03] <zcat[1] > zerokill88: df
[11:03] <xero9364> ethe rape
[11:03] <xero9364> lol
[11:04] <fellacious> how do i find out what programs are using the network?
[11:04] <zerokill88> thanks and sorry
[11:04] <duke_> xero9364, i was seting the "," question litlle confuse =d
[11:04] <Pici> zerokill88: sudo fdisk -l
[11:04] <fellacious> zerokill88: lol df
[11:04] <malnilion> Or ether ape
[11:04] <Pici> fellacious: netstat -tanp
[11:04] <Esteth> zerokill88: Heh, for your average "i want to check my email, use the internet explorer, and watch youtubes" guy, the usability is all there, it's down to hardware support for those people to use ubuntu, and an incentive. Although ubuntu is free, most people think windows is free, since someone just gives them a disk
[11:04] <zcat[1] > well, df shows everything that's mounted right now.. what was the question?
[11:04] <fellacious> pici: doesnt that just show tcp?
[11:04] <Pici> fellacious: Yes. Just do netstat then if you want more
[11:05] <xero9364> zerokill88: Windows is not free. It's $400 of the price of your computer.
[11:05] <davetarmac> Lamego: I get an I/O error (rm: cannot lstat `/media/USB DRIVE/.Trash-chris/Billy Talent/Billy Talent/\r4\004\003\002\004..\002Q': Input/output error
[11:05] <davetarmac> )
[11:05] <zcat[1] > fdisk -l /dev/whatever for all the partitions of a particular drive, yeah
[11:05] <fellacious> any way to log all connections that get established?
[11:05] <zerokill88> Esteth xero9364 yup
[11:05] <Fern> $400? :o
[11:05] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz: check if direct rendering is on type $ glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[11:05] <clamps_> 
[11:05] <xero9364> Fern: Without Windows we would all be better off. Period.
[11:05] <fellacious> considering that my entire computer (which came with windows) was $350
[11:06] <Esteth> xero9364: Not only can you just get an OEM disk, which is cheap, but most people either just get a copy from a friend, or download it.
[11:06] <Fern> Can you buy a computer without Windows?
[11:06] <xero9364> fellacious: Is it a bad version of XP?
[11:06] <zcat[1] > windows is free, as far as most people care, since they are basically NEVER given the option of not having it at any big-name retailer where most people buy their computer
[11:06] <PriceChild> !offtopic | xero9364 Fern Esteth fellacious
[11:06] <ubotu> xero9364 Fern Esteth fellacious: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:06] <xero9364> Fern: At Dell you can. They come with FreeDOS or Ubuntu.
[11:06] <XLV> xero9364, actually no... windows, whether we like it or not, helped move pc arch to masses, lowering prices for hardware
[11:06] <zcat[1] > at dell IN USA you can...
[11:06] <fellacious> clamps_:              
[11:06] <m0u5e> alejandrogarz: sorry i gotta go, but i hope you get compiz working :) (if your running ubuntu, i'd recommend you just download the gnome compiz manager)
[11:07] <Fern> Do we have to go into Offtopic, xero9364?
[11:07] <alejandrogarz> m0u5e : it says xlib: extension glx  is missing on display ":0.0". , error: couldnt find rgb glx visual
[11:07] <Goooner> 47.6s lag!? Im downloading some software updates from Ubuntu, via my Wlan. Is it the server that is slow, or is there some issue with my Wlan?
[11:07] <elcasey> I need a way to burn images that consist of an MDS file and multiple I00, etc. files. Mdf2iso doesn't seem to like it.
[11:07] <zcat[1] > they still haven't started anywhere else, so basically most of the world it takes effort to even buy a compy without windows preinstalled
[11:07] <zcat[1] > woah, I am so offtopic :)
[11:07] <muszek> hi... how do I find device path (/dev/something) of my usb key?
[11:08] <xero9364> muszek: It's usually /dev/sda(something)
[11:08] <masinger> After reboot, I've lost the default Ubuntu theme and the GUI theme tool only shows a "custom" theme without the orange/brown ubuntu look (which I really like).
[11:08] <muszek> xero9364: /dev/sda is my hard drive
[11:08] <Radical> Sakra: unbelievable.. its not working
[11:08] <zcat[1] > windows just makes me angry!
[11:08] <Radical> linux makes me angry
[11:08] <fiXXXerMe1> Is there a way to use hdparm with sata drives?
[11:08] <xero9364> muszek: Try /dev/sdb
[11:08] <muszek> xero9364: /dev/sdb1 doesn't exist... should I try with other sdb?
[11:08] <malnilion> Let's talk about the real enemy...MacOS
[11:08] <masinger> Any suggestions for fixing or do I have to reinstall the ubuntu-desktop?
[11:08] <NachoBorg> hola

[11:09] <Jack_Sparrow> masinger: Have you tried installing any other themes?
[11:09] <xero9364> malnilion: MacOS is teh suxxor more than Windows.
[11:09] <zcat[1] > In linux if something doesn't work, it's a bug. In windows half the time it's a feature.. "Rights management" or "product activation" -- who the hell considers things not working to be a feature?!!

[11:15] <koko1710> can i ask a question?

[11:15] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:15] <koko1710> why my workspaces switcher fails?
[11:15] <Amasis> zcat[1] : I have a 950GMA and no.. The games aren't flying on it.. But stuff such as compiz fusion and so works beautifully.. If you want to game with that card.. It's unfortunately working better in Windows
[11:15] <koko1710> when the desktop effects is enabled?
[11:15] <xero9364> Amasis: EVIL! Be quiet of such demonic figures as Windows.
[11:16] <zcat[1] > Amasis: good thing it's not mine then :) He's going to get an nvidia anyhow..
[11:16] <Jack_Sparrow> koko1710: Mine was working then quit..  I removed and re-enabled effects and back to normal
[11:16] <koko1710> why my workspaces switching fails when desktop effects is on?
[11:16] <Amasis> xero9364: I don't even have Windows on any of my pc's, so I'm "clean" ;) No need for any inquisitions here.. nope :D
[11:17] <koko1710> i have no idea on how to use cube feature if it's like that?
[11:17] <zcat[1] > desktop effects are still a little broken :(

[11:32] <super_chibi_rob0> who can help me?
[11:32] <RenatoSilva> litb: i've heard I can write grub to a bootable floppy. Is it true?
[11:32] <litb> it have a horrible boot menu
[11:32] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: Yes.
[11:32] <eallik> xero9364: is it just about Firefox or Firefox onUbuntu?
[11:32] <badpenguin86> what is the command to move one directory into another?
[11:32] <usr13> How does one create or generate a Postscript file?

[11:32] <acke> litb and i have a disk-1 to disk-9 from the SAME fuckn disk... being automounted.. had it only been mounted on the same fuckn mountpoint as it disconned from....  well it wouldve saved me so much problem...
[11:32] <eallik> xero9364: because I'm not talking about load times and pipelining but the fact that Firefox's UI is very slow on Ubuntu
[11:32] <xero9364> Anything applying to Firefox Windows applies to Firefox Ubuntu.
[11:32] <etuardu> can someone tell me why when i boot the pc i get an error from the upper gnome panel about GNOME_MixerApplet, so i can't handle the volume?
[11:32] <eallik> xero9364: it's super fast on Windows, for example
[11:32] <RenatoSilva> xero9364: how?
[11:33] <xero9364> eallik: Then i don't know.
[11:33] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: No idea.
[11:33] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: I know you can do it, though.
[11:33] <jaime_> !!!!!!!!!
[11:33] <eallik> xero9364: I've heard it has something to do with Gnome and the way Firefox is compiled orsmth.. I thought I could fix it
[11:33] <jaime_> I need help with flash

[11:33] <curiogeo>  can anyone tell me how I would mount a usb floppy drive from the terminal window
[11:34] <Yusuke^> ubuntu support and the forums might be able to help you with it, jaime_
[11:34] <super_chibi_rob0> can anyone tell me how to set my audigy as primary soundcard
[11:34] <Curs0r> how would I get a version of mplayer patched with coreavc support for ubuntu?
[11:34] <RenatoSilva> xero9364: guess a "man"  will help :D
[11:34] <eallik> there is no such thing as .deb source packages, are there?
[11:34] <theblacksails> Curs0r: get the source and patch it?
[11:34] <eallik> I'm thinking that maybe if I compiled Firefox from source, it would run faster
[11:34] <eallik> I can always just test of course..
[11:34] <Moez> Hello ! An USB Scanner is automatically detected by Ubuntu (XSane) ?
[11:34] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: Try google for this: "grub on floppy" or "grub on a floppy"
[11:35] <jimmygoon> xero9364, the other typo I do a lot is Ubunut :P
[11:35] <xero9364> jimmygoon: I'm an ubunut.
[11:35] <Thunderfox933> is there a way to set harddisk timeout?
[11:35] <swb__> I type ubutnu
[11:35] <jimmitastic> I've downloaded realplayer.bin, its on my desktop. where do i need to put it so I can run real videos via the web broser???
[11:35] <xero9364> I type bubuntu
[11:35] <Curs0r> theblacksails, that sounds complex
[11:36] <swb__> jimmitastic, you need to change its properties to make it executable then run it
[11:36] <christian_> What MSn for ubuntu reminds most of the live messenger in windows? I've tried amsn, gaim and kopete... I don't feel comfortable with no one of them..
[11:36] <jimmygoon> Curs0r, unless you can find a prepatched version some where else...
[11:36] <super_chibi_rob0> i hate u nerds that pretend to "roughly know" how to help
[11:36] <swb__> right click and go to properties
[11:36] <theblacksails> not particularly, i think you could just compile it from source with some flags
[11:36] <jaime_> wow
[11:36] <jaime_> sorry
[11:36] <jimmygoon> christian_, what features do you (need/want)?
[11:36] <_KeenEars_> Thunderfox933: look at hdparm util

[11:37] <jaime_> i double click it like it says and nothing happens
[11:37] <jimmitastic> type: executable
[11:37] <swb__> then run it in a terminal
[11:37] <kitche> jaime, nspluginwraper -i <path/to/plugin/
[11:37] <swb__> jimmitastic, but does it have the exeuctable permission?
[11:37] <super_chibi_rob0> xero: ill shut up if someone helps me
[11:37] <super_chibi_rob0> this is wot this room is for

[11:38] <xero9364> haha noob
[11:38] <super_chibi_rob0> i checked also mixer and its using my onboard sound card
[11:38] <Pici> !sound | super_chibi_rob0 have you read this
[11:38] <ubotu> super_chibi_rob0 have you read this: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[11:38] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: Yes.
[11:39] <jimmitastic> swb: gottit, nice1
[11:39] <Amasis> koko1710: did it resolve your problem ?
[11:39] <xero9364> ooboontoo
[11:39] <swb__> jimmitastic, cool
[11:40] <_KeenEars_> anyone here develops software of oneself ? how had you contributed it ?
[11:40] <jimmitastic> swb: wait surely I dont want to install it to desktop
[11:40] <RenatoSilva> xero9364: I want to make the following partition scheme  on my hard drive:

[11:40] <SleepyHare> I am on Feisty, currently running two gnome sessions via FUSA, my objective is to connect and control my display:0 via VNC, while the other user is active, and using the screen.
[11:40] <jimmitastic> it is defaulting me to install it there, but shouldnt it go in usr/bin or something similar
[11:41] <jaime_> is automatix worth installing, ive read a lot of mixed reviews about it?
[11:41] <Pici> !automatix | jaime_
[11:41] <ubotu> jaime_: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[11:41] <christian_> jimmygoon: Okei, aint no live messenger for ubuntu..
[11:41] <xero9364> jaime_: Yes. It is for people who know what they're doing.
[11:41] <litb> RenatoSilva: i don't want to fool you
[11:41] <super_chibi_rob0> uboto
[11:41] <super_chibi_rob0> i tried wot u told me
[11:41] <jaime_> ok so what should I use to install things if i dont know what im doing?
[11:41] <Pici> xero9364: No, it is not. and we dont provide support for it here if it does.
[11:42] <christian_> anyone else: What Msn for ubuntu reminds most of the live messenger in windows? I've tried amsn, gaim and kopete.
[11:42] <vocx> jaime_, the official stand is that is is NOT supported
[11:42] <thrice`> anyone know where I can get the classic ubuntu window decs?  the older, brown, square borders?
[11:42] <super_chibi_rob0> but alsamixer is still using my onboard sound
[11:42] <vocx> super_chibi_rob0, ubotu is a bot, he is not human
[11:42] <super_chibi_rob0> despite changing it to my audigy
[11:42] <xero9364> Pici: It didn't break my system. Am I the chosen one?
[11:42] <Yusuke^> christian_: amsn, it's as simple as: sudo apt-get install amsn
[11:42] <super_chibi_rob0> oo
[11:42] <SleepyHare> Any suggestions on my problem?

The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[11:42] <super_chibi_rob0> so can anyone helo?
[11:42] <Yusuke^> the closest thing to windows live messenger you will find onlinux
[11:42] <super_chibi_rob0> help
[11:43] <Pici> xero9364: /me is a fan of factoid only responses ;)
[11:43] <wolferine> !ask | super_chibi_rob0
[11:43] <ubotu> super_chibi_rob0: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:43] <vocx> super_chibi_rob0, you may be able to deactivate the on board sound through the system BIOS upon start up.
[11:43] <christian_> Yusuke^: K, tnx. I've tried it, but I will get used to it
[11:43] <litb> !doesntworksforme
[11:43] <ProN00b> does anyone know any other solution for remote desktop except the default remote desktop in ubuntu (vino-server) where some special keys (alt+gr+stuff) don't work and freeNx (which doesn't work since i don't have my ssh listen on lo) ?
[11:43] <super_chibi_rob0> thx vocx
[11:43] <litb> !cookie
[11:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cookie - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:43] <super_chibi_rob0> but ill leave that as last resor
[11:43] <RenatoSilva> xero9364: 20GB Windows XP, 20GB, 40GB data, these three primary partitions. Then a 1GB swap, 10GB Kubuntu, 10GB Windows Vista, these three on an extended partition, and finally 59GB of free disk space
[11:43] <xero9364> Pici: I never asked that. I asked if I'm the chosen one.
[11:43] <Yusuke^> not much choice really. when you try to install the .exe with wine, it detects you're using wine and not truly using windows, and won't install
[11:43] <litb> lame bot
[11:44] <Pici> xero9364: I cannot confirm nor deny.
[11:44] <SleepyHare> Yay, remote desktop.
[11:44] <Amasis> ProN00b: http://www.nomachine.com/ -- as far as I understand, it's possible to get working
[11:44] <Esteth> ProN00b: perhaps VNC is more what you're after, it's pretty standard remote desktop software
[11:44] <ProN00b> Amasis, not with my setup
[11:44] <super_chibi_rob0> would i need to restart the pc
[11:44] <NathanExplosion> a;oiwejfa;oeijf
[11:44] <wolferine> Yusuke^, take your question to #winehq, possibly read the topic
[11:44] <RenatoSilva> Hey, guys. What do you think about my planned partitioning scheme for my hard drive: 20GB Windows XP, 20GB, 40GB data, these three primary partitions. Then a 1GB swap, 10GB Kubuntu, 10GB Windows Vista, these three on an extended partition, and finally 59GB of free disk space. Is it cool?
[11:45] <super_chibi_rob0> after changing default card
[11:45] <Yusuke^> wasn't asking a question wolferine, i was answering one
[11:45] <Thunderfox933> how can i set the computer to sleep
[11:45] <ProN00b> Esteth, which server ? default ubuntu remote desktop (vino, a vnc server) doesn't work as i said
[11:45] <wolferine> ah
[11:45] <NathanExplosion> vista sucks
[11:45] <xero9364> Help. I dropped my flash drive and now I lost it.
[11:45] <xero9364> NathanExplosion: Agreed to the max.
[11:45] <SleepyHare> I am on Feisty, currently running two gnome sessions via FUSA, my objective is to connect and control my display:0 via VNC, while the other user is active, and using the screen.
[11:45] <grigora> hi, when upgrading from Dapper Drake to Egdy I get the following error "IOError: CRC check failed". Anyone knows what's causing this?
[11:45] <random832> is there any gui for configuring trackpad options?
[11:45] <vocx> super_chibi_rob0, of course.
[11:45] <rockets> I've got a bunch of MP3s here that play in totem just fine but wont import into rhythmbox
[11:45] <NathanExplosion> why would you triple boot with 2 windows os? that's just dumb
[11:46] <wolferine> SleepyHare, are you logged in on the box your vncing into?
[11:46] <thrice`> grigora: dying harddrive
[11:46] <RenatoSilva> litb: what do u mean with fool me?
[11:46] <jimmitastic> hmm ok i downloaded real player binary, executed it, but its unpacked it to my Desktop.... do I need to put it anywhere more appropriate? Like usr/bin or something
[11:46] <random832> (i mean, right now i have tap click which is way too sensitive so i want to turn it off, and right side scroll which didn't work in windows so i know it's not a feature of the hardware directly] 
[11:46] <RenatoSilva> litb: didn't catch
[11:46] <greenmanspirit> can anyone here help me with boot speed issues, my computer waits forever on the configuring network interfaces step
[11:46] <grigora> thrice`: really?
[11:46] <Esteth> ProN00b: Ah, i didn't realise vino was a vnc server, i don't have much experience with it, but i used a vnc client/server in the past, and it worked well for me. Can't help any more than that, sorry :(
[11:46] <rockets> Never mind.
[11:46] <kitche> NathanExplosion, triple booting 3 linus distros also dumb if you say that :)
[11:46] <astro76> random832, install gsynaptics
[11:46] <random832> astro76: thanks
[11:47] <xero9364> kitche: You side with the demons of MicroSSSUUUUUCCCCK?
[11:47] <grigora> thrice`: how come I don't see anything in the logs
[11:47] <grigora> ?
[11:47] <solitude|> hey
[11:47] <SleepyHare> wolferine, Yes. Normally I`m using it, but when I`m away, I want to lock the session, switch to another screen with another user and be able to VNC to my session without interfering with the local user.
[11:47] <solitude|> how do i see what /dev is mounted under something in /media ?
[11:47] <random832> hmm
[11:47] <random832> how do i make gsynaptics work
[11:47] <xero9364> solitude|: mount
[11:47] <xero9364> simply type mount
[11:47] <RenatoSilva> Hey, guys. What do you think about my planned partitioning scheme for my hard drive: 20GB Windows XP, 20GB Ubuntu Feisty, 40GB data, these three primary partitions. Then a 1GB swap, 10GB Kubuntu, 10GB Windows Vista, these three on an extended partition, and finally 59GB of free disk space. Is it cool?
[11:47] <fellacious> my computer is getting completely fucking random udp packets from all over the place
[11:47] <random832> (the fact that the error message speaks of "XF86config" is not promising
[11:48] <thrice`> solitude|: "mount"
[11:48] <wolferine> SleepyHare, lock the session, never heard of such a thing
[11:48] <fellacious> is there any way to find out what processes on my computer are sending/recieving them?
[11:48] <Yusuke^> RenatoSilva: i think it's extreme
[11:48] <xero9364> RenatoSilva: I say all Ubuntu/Kubuntu and maybe XP because Vista sucks.
[11:48] <solitude|> thanks
[11:48] <random832> _where_ do i set "SHMConfig" "true"?
[11:48] <Esteth> RenatoSilva: Why have both kubuntu and ubuntu?
[11:48] <SleepyHare> wolferine, Pardon me, Lock the Screen, of course
[11:48] <Yusuke^> and choose xp or vista (i'd say xp)
[11:48] <astro76> random832, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, in the Input Device section for the touchpad
[11:48] <RenatoSilva> Yusuke^: what do u mean?
[11:48] <grigora> anyone knows what's causing this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34350/
[11:49] <RenatoSilva> xero9364: u mean that I have not to install Vista?
[11:49] <astro76> random832, add the line:         Option          "SHMConfig"             "on"
[11:49] <Yusuke^> ubuntu and kubuntu doesn't make sense, and xp and vista doesn't either
[11:49] <RenatoSilva> Esteth: I'll explain for all, please read
[11:49] <taime1> is there a way to get gnome to do a slideshow on your desktop like kde?
[11:50] <scam> slideshow?
[11:50] <scam> you mean the desktop?
[11:50] <jaime_> ok i tried to execute the nspluginwrapper file and I have no idea how to do it, i need like 5th grade directions
[11:50] <taime1> yeah
[11:50] <soc> hi
[11:50] <soc> hab ein grub problem
[11:50] <RenatoSilva> On my scheme, the HD is divided in two parts: the first one is for my main partitions: A main Windows, a main Linux. and a data partition for both
[11:50] <kitche> jaime, nspluginwrapper -i /path/to/plugin will install the plugin for your user
[11:50] <thrice`> soc: nur Englisch, hier
[11:50] <fellacious> halp i am getting paquetted
[11:50] <soc> sorry
[11:51] <RenatoSilva> all these primary
[11:51] <soc> clicked on the wrnog channel
[11:51] <thrice`> =] 
[11:51] <soc> :-)
[11:51] <Wolydarg> Hey, does anyone know how well windows games work in Vmware on decent hardware?
[11:51] <soc> ok
[11:51] <Esteth> RenatoSilva: afaik, there's no need for a data partition to be primary
[11:51] <soc> if i'm already here ...
[11:51] <Esteth> Wolydarg: they don't
[11:51] <soc> ok
[11:51] <jaime_> it says not found when i ran the command /path/to/plugin
[11:51] <kitche> thrice`, in here thought this was ##slackware for a second lol
[11:51] <Esteth> wolydarg: Many of them work through WINE, though. take a look
[11:51] <soc> i have plugged in an old hd with a winxp partition zu migrate some data
[11:51] <Wolydarg> Will do, thanks
[11:52] <Esteth> wolydarg: http://appdb.winehq.org/
[11:52] <thrice`> kitche: hehe; i'm trying to find a ubuntu gtk+ theme, but this channel seems impossible to keep track of
[11:52] <soc> now i want to boot up win xp to uninstall some things
[11:52] <soc> boot i can't get it to boot
[11:52] <Yusuke^> Wolydarg: there is a program (can't remember the name) that allows you to run windows games near natively. but you need to have a beefy system
[11:52] <RenatoSilva> on the second part I make an extended partition to have secondary partitions (that I can edit): swap, and testing-systems, such as Vista and Kubuntu
[11:52] <soc> grub says "starting up" for an indefinite time ...
[11:52] <Yusuke^> it costs money also, not open source
[11:53] <kitche> thrice`, do you mean besides human theme
[11:53] <random832> huh - disabling the touchpad also disables the buttons for the trackpoint mouse
[11:53] <d11m> hello all
[11:53] <Heygabe> Ahoy, hoy. Is there a program in the Ubuntu repos that will check a disk for duplicated files?
[11:53] <RenatoSilva> Esteth: there's no need for ANY partition to be primary I guess ;)
[11:53] <thrice`> kitche: aye, the old original, square one
[11:53] <Message_> test
[11:53] <SleepyHare> wolferine, Any ideas?..
[11:53] <FxChiP> Why would a driver compile fine once and then not the next time?
[11:54] <d11m> has anyone here configured mythtv
[11:54] <Esteth> RenatoSilva: Well, i tend to keep my OS partitions primary, so they're bootable, but i might be misinformed on what primary means
[11:54] <FxChiP> The main problem I'm having is that the kernel headers seem to have called mutiny on themselves and just give constant errors when I'm trying to build DRM.
[11:54] <afaik> heh... sweet... all I needed to do was install a single package to make bluetooth work
[11:54] <vocx> soc, does the grub menu has the options to boot Windows? Or you don't see any menu at all?
[11:55] <soc> yes
[11:56] <RenatoSilva> Esteth: primary are those which can't be sub-partioned. These are extended partitions
[11:56] <random832> astro76: thank you
[11:56] <soc> i already wrote an entry for windows
[11:56] <loquitus_of_borg> Hi. I am looking for a command line mp3/audio player that I can run non-interactively. I want to be able to tell it to play an mp3 (in loops), stop, pause, switch to another mp3, go up or down in volume etc, and be able to control it without having to restart it. basically it should always be running in the background and I control it from the command line somehow
[11:56] <RenatoSilva> Hey, guys. What do you think about my planned partitioning scheme for my hard drive: 20GB Windows XP, 20GB Ubuntu Feisty, 40GB data, these three primary partitions. Then a 1GB swap, 10GB Kubuntu, 10GB Windows Vista, these three on an extended partition, and finally 59GB of free disk space. Is it cool? In this scheme, the HD is divided in two parts: the first one is for my main partitions: A main Windows, a main Linux. and a
[11:56] <random832> any idea what the heck "circular scrolling" is?
[11:56] <Ioan> I have trouble making a webcam be recognized : INTEX IT-103WC - does anyone knows how to fix this ?
[11:56] <soc> but if ic choose iti only get "starting up"
[11:56] <thrice`> loquitus_of_borg: mpd
[11:56] <arooni> folks!  i'm installing on the ubuntu alternate 7.04 cd... and its on 'select and install software' and its at 85% "installed br1tty-x11" and has been for a LONG time....
[11:56] <Chousuke> random832: being able to scroll sideways and vertically at the same time? :P
[11:56] <arooni> is that ok?
[11:56] <Yusuke^> we already told you RenatoSilva
[11:56] <Ioan> http://packages.debian.org/unstable/graphics/gspca-source   - this seem to have the latest drivers - but I still do not know how to get a deb file to install it
[11:57] <RenatoSilva> Yusuke^: i did not understand u
[11:57] <TBZ> ok... stupid question, how do you end a man page in term???!?
[11:57] <thrice`> TBZ: q
[11:57] <vocx> soc, can you pastebin the menu.lst ?
[11:57] <vocx> !paste | soc
[11:57] <ubotu> soc: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:57] <RenatoSilva> Yusuke^:  only jokes is what I've seen
[11:57] <SleepyHare> I am on Feisty, currently running two gnome sessions via FUSA, my objective is to connect and control my display:0 via VNC, while the other user is active, and using the screen.
[11:58] <random832> SleepyHare: I don't believe that's possible.
[11:58] <plasma> you can't do display:0 over VNC to my knowledge
[11:58] <plasma> since it's not a VNC session
[11:58] <zixp> hello, I cannot connect to WPA routers, but WEP works fine - 7.04 w/ ndiswrapper and wpasupplicant installed
[11:58] <SleepyHare> random832, Why is that?
[11:58] <random832> plasma: you can, with something like x0vncserver [and there's something like that with gnome] 
[11:59] <plasma> ah, nice
[11:59] <keen> anyone know a good snes emulator?
[11:59] <plasma> okay, never played with that
[11:59] <random832> SleepyHare: because the session that's not active isn't using the display memory
[11:59] <random832> x0rfbserver, sorry, not x0vncserver
[11:59] <nikin> hy.. is there any way to clear the memory used as cache in linux?
[11:59] <astro76> !info zsnes | keen
[11:59] <ubotu> keen: zsnes: Emulator of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (TM). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.420-2.1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 513 kB, installed size 3232 kB (Only available for i386)
[11:59] <RenatoSilva> Since nobody says something, I'll believe my scheme is nice :P
[11:59] <Matir> hey guys... i have a laptop here that won't boot... if you push the power button, the power light comes on, but nothing else changes... no HD activity, no screen display... any ideas what would cause that?
[11:59] <keen> astro76: i had zsnes but the sound was all messed up....any ideas why?
[11:59] <thrice`> RenatoSilva: there is no reason to have ubuntu and kubuntu installed separately
[11:59] <RenatoSilva> Anotehr question: how to share a data partition between Windows and Ubuntu??
[12:00] <astro76> keen, not really
[12:00] <RenatoSilva> thrice`: as I've said, Kubuntu is only for testing
[12:00] <DrHalan> how can i browse folders as root so i can change its properties
[12:00] <SleepyHare> random832, huh? My VNC-client is set up to connect to display 0, and it shows my screen while the session is active.
[12:00] <astro76> RenatoSilva, make it fat32
[12:00] <keen> astro76: thanks anyway
[12:00] <random832> SleepyHare: because while the session is active, it's using the display memory. the inactive session isn't using the display memory
[12:00] <Esteth> RenatoSilva: either install the EXT3 extension for windows, or let ubuntu mount the NTFS partition
[12:00] <nikin> Matir: no CPU , no RAM ... do you hear any beeping?
[12:00] <random832> the screen image doesn't "live" anywhere, so the vnc server can't serve it
[12:00] <eallik> does Debian have source packages?
[12:01] <Yusuke^> keen, you using i386?
[12:01] <NathanExplosion> can anyone help me with my broadcom wifi?
[12:01] <RenatoSilva> thrice`: do u mean I can have a "Buntu" with both GNOME and KDE?
[12:01] <eallik> I mean Ubuntu
[12:01] <wolfger> RenatoSilva: ...or get ext2 driver for Windows. I did that before, and it worked well.
[12:01] <thrice`> RenatoSilva: of course
[12:01] <keen> yusuke^: ya
[12:01] <wolfger> man, I type too slow :-)
[12:01] <Matir> nikin, no beeping... the machine had been working until today
[12:01] <RenatoSilva> astro76: no! I mean except by using fat! :D
[12:01] <nikin> DrHalan: gksudo + any file manager you want
[12:01] <random832> RenatoSilva: why not using fat?
[12:01] <Esteth> RenatoSilva: Yes, you can also run KDE apps in gnome, and gnome apps in KDE if you have the libraries :)
[12:01] <NathanExplosion> anyone good with broadcome wifi?
[12:01] <Yusuke^> i didn't have any problems with zsnes, but i had to use wine with other emulators
[12:01] <random832> the other option is to not run windows and linux on the same computer - use the network to share files
[12:02] <kondeDrakul> anyone know how this modem SpeedStream 4060 work with linux?
[12:02] <nikin> Matir : any reasons it should not work? did you try to remove the batteryes.. did you look at the CPU and the RAM to be in place
[12:02] <random832> or you could use something like colinux
[12:02] <SleepyHare> random832, oh, I`ll rephrase then, I believe the session is still active, Both of them. It` just that the local screen is used by another session.
[12:02] <nikin> does the Laptop charge?
[12:02] <random832> SleepyHare: by "active" i mean "displayed on the local screen"
