[12:02] <michael> josephinenerdgir: i have an hp that got detected without and probs.. does it work in windblows?
[12:02] <Kossilar> I think you're in here like 3 times though. I see 'blix2008/blix2009/blixey'
[12:03] <maelcum> WhiteRaven: np. as a kde developer i recommend kubuntu :)
[12:03] <blix2009> yeah, I need to know how to kill those usernames
[12:03] <josephinenerdgir> michael: yeah no problem on my grandps comp
[12:03] <michael> k , he ueses ubuntu?
[12:03] <Kossilar> That's wierd I don't know how to deal with that. Have you used /nick?
[12:04] <LaCtoSE> i'd stick with GNOME :<
[12:04] <blix2009> no I havent't
[12:04] <blix2009> what's the effect?
[12:04] <Kossilar> It changes your nickname
[12:04] <Koss> Like so
[12:04] <blix2009> test
[12:04] <kondeDrakul> anyone know if exist connector usb to ethernet ?
[12:04] <blix2009> test
[12:05] <blix2009> doesn't really work for me
[12:05] <blix2009> test
[12:05] <blix2009> mmm.
[12:05] <Kossilar> Anyway, lets not worry about that too much. Does the LIVE CD work? Does it give you an Ubuntu desktop?
[12:05] <maelcum> LaCtoSE: ha, let's go to #outside and have a proper fight :o
[12:05] <sauvin> http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-F5D5050-Networking-Ethernet-Adaptor/dp/B000062R4P
[12:05] <LaCtoSE> ok maelcum :)
[12:05] <Ben_Cs> what's the channel for ubuntu 7.10?
[12:05] <sauvin> kondeDrakul, check that link out.
[12:05] <PriceChild> Ben_Cs, #ubuntu+1
[12:05] <blix2009> well, without that graphics driver it doesn't.
[12:05] <Ben_Cs> thanks
[12:05] <blix2009> The installation just halts complaining about Xserver
[12:06] <Kossilar> Okay, theres a way to change the video resolution when you go in. Try setting it 1024x768x32
[12:06] <blix2009> I need to know how to use this driver
[12:06] <kondeDrakul> thanks
[12:06] <DrkCodeman> anyone able to install pureftpd to ubuntu?
[12:06] <Kossilar> I think you have to hit F4
[12:06] <adamorjames> How do I get the default bt client started through the terminal?
[12:06] <blix2009> ah right, good point
[12:06] <maelcum> Kossilar: uhm, yes it works usually. "here, take this software. it doesn't work though". *g*
[12:06] <Kossilar> then select the resolution.
[12:06] <blix2009> mmm, let me try it
[12:06] <Kossilar> That's what worked for me. I have a 6800gs
[12:06] <blix2009> ok right ok
[12:06] <josephinenerdgir> miachel: i think im going to buy a brand new usb cable
[12:06] <blix2009> ok, I'l play with the resolution
[12:06] <blix2009> be back right folks
[12:06] <Kossilar> see you soon
[12:07] <nathan__> is there any way to change ubuntu's applications menu, etc to black
[12:07] <blix2009> sure, thanks for helping out.
[12:07] <DrkCodeman> pureftpd doesnt work under ubuntu
[12:07] <blix2009> I'll be back.
[12:07] <Sam_kill_ghost> hey what is the difference between ubuntu and debian?
[12:07] <PriceChild> DrkCodeman, don't use ftp
[12:07] <michael> josephinenerdgir: try that, it might be the prob. and cheaper then a new printer
[12:07] <sauvin> ubuntu is a debian derivative.
[12:07] <b14ck> Is there anyway to get a driver for the NVIDIA 128MB GeForce 8300GS? I can't find a driver ANYWHERE for this card. Any ideas?
[12:07] <Kossilar> nvidia.com
[12:07] <b14ck> I don't see a driver on ther for it.
[12:07] <PriceChild> b14ck, it was released after feisty. you'll have to install it manually from nvidia.com
[12:07] <Atlantiz> but as far as packages available?
[12:07] <LaCtoSE> yes there is nathan__
[12:07] <adamorjames> How do I get the default bt client started through the terminal?
[12:07] <maelcum> Atlantiz: ubuntu is more cutting edge / less conservative and a bit more polished for desktop use, basically
[12:08] <Kossilar> Black, are you 64 or 32 bit?
[12:08] <Atlantiz> hmm i'm tempted to switch
[12:08] <b14ck> Kossilar: 32bit
[12:08] <Kossilar> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.11.html
[12:08] <nathan__> LaCtoSE: I am using beryl and I have everything basically how I want it, except I want the menu to be black, can you advise?
[12:08] <b14ck> ty
[12:08] <Kossilar> That should be your driver there.
[12:08] <LaCtoSE> nathan__, i don't use fancy things like beryl :\
[12:09] <nathan__> LaCtoSE: how can I change the menu color to black?
[12:09] <LaCtoSE> nathan__, make a theme with black menus
[12:10] <nathan__> what?
[12:10] <LaCtoSE> or you could edit one you like to include black menus
[12:10] <Atlantiz> is ubuntu server edition, the desktop edition+LAMP?
[12:11] <dcordes> Can somebody tell with which application I can capture videos with my webcam while watching what I record?
[12:11] <nathan__> the only options I see for editing a theme is windows color, input boxes color and  selected items color
[12:11] <michael> hello new people
[12:11] <LaCtoSE> nathan__, are you on kde or gnome?
[12:11] <nathan__> gnome
[12:12] <flemnos> adamorjames, take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-48792.html
[12:12] <maelcum> Atlantiz: afaik it doesn't include a desktop by default and is quite minimal plus it contains some (not many) server packages.
[12:12] <neoport0> question how do i run a program in root
[12:12] <maelcum> Atlantiz: many people (like me) still go with debian for servers
[12:12] <neoport0> i wanna run avast viruse scaner
[12:12] <neoport0> gui
[12:12] <Atlantiz> maelcum, but on desktop edition you can still download LAMP via a package manager?
[12:13] <sauvin> neoport0, gksudo?
[12:13] <kekk> gksudo, neoport0
[12:13] <adamorjames> ok flemnos
[12:13] <neoport0> so what gksudo avast
[12:13] <kekk> neoport0, probably yes
[12:13] <maelcum> Atlantiz: you can "convert" to any flavor of ubuntu just by installing and removing packages.
[12:13] <Atlantiz> ah
[12:13] <Atlantiz> excellent
[12:14] <LaCtoSE> nathan__, if you can find where the themes are stored open one up in a text editor and look for anything that refers to menu background colours
[12:14] <Atlantiz> I have another hardrive that wouldn't mind trying ubuntu me thinks
[12:15] <nathan__> so hard just to change the color of one thing... why can't people LEARN from the good parts of windows instead of trying to reinvent the wheel all the time =/
[12:15] <Kossilar> What are you trying to do Nathan?
[12:15] <LaCtoSE> nathan__, welcome to linux :/
[12:15] <nathan__> change my menu to black.
[12:15] <Kossilar> define 'menu'? All your menus or the gnome menu?
[12:16] <nathan__> applications, places, system
[12:16] <Kossilar> So all your menus.
[12:16] <flemnos> adamorjames, actually it seems to work well enough if you run   /usr/bin/btdownloadgui
[12:16] <dougpol1> I am trying to get to Cinlerrs freenode how do I do that?
[12:16] <Kossilar> One second. Let me see what I can find.
[12:16] <MrCollins> does anyone know a good dvd player for ubuntu?
[12:16] <Kossilar> You're using Gnome? Or KDE?
[12:16] <ticnailer69> mplayer?
[12:16] <nathan__> Kossilar: thanks, I appreciate that, I tried google and here
[12:17] <MrCollins> Kossilar: gnome
[12:17] <Atlantiz> dvd rom?
[12:17] <kekk> vlc I think, MrCollins
[12:17] <nathan__> gnome, and I have beryl too
[12:17] <MrCollins> yes Atlantiz
[12:17] <neoport0> ty
[12:17] <MrCollins> just wanna watch dvd rom :)
[12:17] <Optimus55> hey i'm looking for some advice. i have beryl installed and configured but i want to switch to the new compiz fusion. what's the best way to go about doing that?
[12:17] <MrCollins> totem doesnt seem to play well..
[12:17] <Kossilar> Okay, let me get into gnome. Hold on.
[12:17] <Atlantiz> not sure, I'm actually looking for a good dvd burner myself can anyone recommend any?
[12:17] <nathan__> Optimus55: don't. that's my advise
[12:17] <Kossilar> totem is garbage. Get VLC
[12:17] <Optimus55> nathan_: why's that?
[12:17] <MrCollins> ok Kossilar
[12:18] <File13> Is there a command i can type in terminal to list available wireless networks, the wireless card i have to install i had to uninstall the network assistant so i dont have a GUI to check
[12:18] <Kossilar> VLC will play most stuff out of the box.
[12:18] <ticnailer69> K3b is a good burner
[12:18] <neoport0> one more question when i use gnome art and install wallpaper and then i install another wall paper will bouth be installed
[12:18] <empek> heloo :)
[12:18] <nathan__> Optimus55 I switched over two days ago and it was nothing but buggy buggy buggy..
[12:18] <kekk> second k3b
[12:18] <Atlantiz> i meant hardware...k3b rocks though :D
[12:18] <Atlantiz> dvd+rw
[12:18] <kekk> neoport0, should be like that yes
[12:19] <nathan__> Optimus55: you will crash your desktop, guarantee. and also it leaves an update of 0B that never goes away no matter what. its a pain in the ass
[12:19] <ticnailer69> go to #hardware
[12:19] <MrCollins> Kossilar: gotcha.
[12:19] <atlas95> File13: iwlish scan
[12:19] <MrCollins> dling vlc now.
[12:19] <atlas95> File13: sorry iwlist scan i hope
[12:19] <Kossilar> Nathan:
[12:19] <Optimus55> nathan__: wow. you sure you're not having an isolated case? i'm going to check the forums. what gfx card do you have?
[12:19] <JC_Denton_> atlas95 isnt it iwlist ethX scan
[12:19] <adamorjames> When I do "find" in the terminal how I look through all files <.<
[12:20] <adamorjames> *do
[12:20] <atlas95> oko*
[12:20] <Kossilar> Nathan: Menu-> System -> Preferences -> Theme
[12:20] <nathan__> Optimus55: I'm sure. you can have some fun trying it out, but I'm just lettin' you know.. I'll see you in here asking for help soon!
[12:20] <neoport0> what is the best viruse scanner for ubuntu
[12:20] <PriceChild> !virus | neoport0
[12:20] <ubotu> neoport0: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[12:20] <nathan__> Kossilar: ok, then what
[12:20] <bluefox83> nathan__, i run compiz fusion without any problems, there should be no problems getting anyone else to run it...what you should just be sure to ttell them is that it's still beta so it might not work right for them :p
[12:20] <PriceChild> neoport0, still sure you want it?
[12:20] <Kossilar> customize -> color
[12:20] <nathan__> Kossilar: ok, and then?
[12:20] <Kossilar> The window color will change the menu color, but also the color of your menus.
[12:21] <Optimus55> nathan__: lol...
[12:21] <adamorjames> When I do "find" in the terminal how I look through all files <.<
[12:21] <Kossilar> There's also another way I think. Let me check something else
[12:21] <Atlantiz> thanks tic
[12:21] <mc2ts> i need help with my sound card  creative audigy plat z2
[12:21] <Kossilar> Which will probably be better.
[12:21] <nathan__> well that doesn't have menus in it so..
[12:21] <JC_Denton_> !compiz

[12:21] <xp_prg> can anyone help me to compile rosegarden 1.5.1?
[12:21] <ticnailer69> what do you mean by look at all files?
[12:21] <File13> is there an alternative for AWN
[12:21] <bluefox83> what the heck is rosegarden?
[12:22] <Optimus55> bluefox83: compiz fusion still in beta? was the latest beryl still beta as well?
[12:22] <xp_prg> its an awsome free sequencer opensource
[12:22] <kyja_> i beg your pardon?
[12:22] <krammer> what is a good text editor to use for c programming for ubuntu?
[12:22] <xp_prg> to make music
[12:22] <nathan__> Optimus55: at the same time I was asking for help with that stuff there was two other people in there with the same problems...
[12:22] <xp_prg> krammer vi or emacs
[12:22] <bruenig> krammer, vim
[12:22] <krammer> no
[12:22] <xp_prg> krammer if you want graphical, try eclipse
[12:22] <bruenig> if you want graphical try gvim
[12:22] <Optimus55> nathan__: what vid card u have? also, what did you end up doing?
[12:22] <bluefox83> Optimus55, no...they merged beryl and compiz, and they're still not fully released yet, but don't worry about it, it's very stable for the most part
[12:22] <krammer> thank
[12:22] <krammer> you
[12:22] <michael> xp_prg: nano
[12:22] <bruenig> eclipse, the azureus of text editors
[12:23] <xp_prg> it says I need kde3 libraries
[12:23] <pretender_> what is the command to watch live tv in mplayer
[12:23] <xp_prg> for real, someone help me, I am hurting inside
[12:23] <nathan__> Optimus55: built in intel video, and I ended up going back to beryl
[12:23] <adamorjames> Where does Ubuntu store the bt client py gui file by default
[12:23] <MrCollins> how do I tell which entry in my /dev/ list is my dvd rom?
[12:23] <nathan__> Optimus55: it wasn't a video card issue because every now and again it would work, the PROGRAM was buggy, know what I mean
[12:24] <adamorjames> oook
[12:24] <flemnos> adamorjames, try /usr/bin/btdownloadgui  instead of the .py file
[12:24] <neoport0> hmm
[12:24] <michael> will there eer be a winux? if so it would be about $150.00
[12:24] <adamorjames> ty flemnos
[12:24] <neoport0> so i guess to have one is just wasting hd space
[12:24] <neoport0> lol
[12:24] <blix> hi Koss

[12:24] <empek> http://upload.revolucja.pl/viewer.php?id=40347851.jpg   =  What do you think about my ubuntu desktop? :)
[12:24] <nathan__> Optimus55: the only thing I noticed was it was much much harder to install and there wasn't much of any benefit except that cool burning writing. I would wait till it's developed a bit personally
[12:24] <blix> what's this red line?
[12:24] <Optimus55> nathan__: yeh. is beryl in beta also? what i'm really interested in is the window switching effects, where you can line the whole cube out and drag programs from one screen to the next
[12:25] <nathan__> Optimus55: I am doing that now with beryl...
[12:25] <Optimus55> nathan__: any way to get those effect in beryl?
[12:25] <Optimus55> how??
[12:25] <adamorjames> didn't work flemnos

[12:26] <neoport0> PriceChild, so i guess having a viruse scanner is a wast of hd space
[12:26] <bruenig> Optimus55, nathan__ #ubuntu-effects
[12:26] <blix> ah right...thanks folks

[12:40] <clearzen> can you format a 1.5TB drive with gparted?
[12:40] <ironmata1> you might change that nick helpme
[12:40] <bluefox83> MaxL, it all depends on your graphics card, and your drivers, as well as the version of wine you are using
[12:40] <qebab> a 1.5TB drive dear lord :|
[12:40] <HelpMe> ironmata1:  why?

[12:53] <ailean> guys, is there a way to quickly switch between keyboard layouts in GNOME?  I regularly type in both english and spanish and it's a bit of a pain to have to go into preferences each time.
[12:53] <PriceChild> ailean, you can add a language applet to the panel, which you can click to swap between languages/layouts
[12:53] <BP624> 7.04
[12:54] <Kossilar> Okay, what's your sound card?
[12:54] <BP624> uh intel i guess
[12:54] <josephinenerdgir> michael:no dice even with the new cable
[12:54] <ironmata1>   is ~ supposed to be used between cd and anything else?

[12:57] <ailean> PriceChild, what language applet is that_
[12:57] <blix> back
[12:57] <Kossilar> Intel? You're using onboard then? Give me your system specs.
[12:57] <PriceChild> ailean, called "Keyboard Indicator"
[12:57] <BP624> what kind of specs like what
[12:58] <ic56> titancompu: not unless you have unpartitionned space.  The installer doesn't set things up that way, so you'll have to backup, re-partition, and restore.  However, if you have multiple partitions, you don't need to destroy all of them.  So you could backup from one partit to another.
[12:58] <ironmata1> on your computer
[12:58] <ironmata1> any and all things u know is in the box

[01:00] <ironmata1> anything could be relavant to your issue
[01:00] <Kossilar> I.E. what kind of computer do you have. You should probably also mention if you have a laptop.
[01:00] <Kossilar> Blix: Made any progress?
[01:01] <blix> still looking at the Ubuntu Documentation
[01:01] <obi> can someone tell me how can i boot with grub an iso live mode?
[01:01] <obi> not install?
[01:02] <Kossilar> Blix: Did you try checking the forums?
[01:02] <ic56> obi: I'm not sure I understand what you are doing, but I suspect your bootloader has an incorrect idea of which device is the root filesystem.
[01:02] <BP624> Laptop (Toshiba Satellite) Intel Celeron M @ 1.60GHZ with 1.37 GB RAM ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M  Realtek HD 60 GB HD
[01:02] <Kossilar> Excellent.
[01:02] <Kossilar> Alright, lets check UbuntuForums.com and see what we can find
[01:03] <jos1> test
[01:03] <obi> ic56: what root i hawe to put in grub...i pur root=/dev/ram
[01:04] <obi> ic56: i try to boot from grub the latest ubuntu iso
[01:04] <ic56> obi: mmm, that syntax isn't used by grub.  It's used by the kernel argument parser.  At which point did you specify "root=/dev/ram"  (and is /dev/ram the right device?  I've never done that)
[01:04] <ic56> obi: and the iso is in a file physically copied to your harddisk?
[01:05] <Kossilar> BP624: Open synaptic and check on the package status of ALSA and OSS you may need to reinstall them
[01:05] <obi> title  u4 from iso
[01:05] <obi> root (hd0,8)
[01:05] <obi> kernel /u/casper/vmlinuz boot=/dev/sda9/u/casper root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=1048576 rw home=/media/sda7 unionrw=/dev/sda7/urw

[01:05] <Secondary> HI
[01:05] <sauvin> Warning: Secondary is a TROLL.
[01:05] <nathan__> does anyone know how to change ubuntu's menu color?
[01:06] <Secondary> i heard there are people here with very interesting political alignments
[01:06] <Grungebunny> nathan__ you find out let me know
[01:07] <obi> ic56: i hawe mont and copy the content of the .iso to partition
[01:07] <obi> ic56: and boot it
[01:07] <cafuego> Yay, we're at multiverse.
[01:07] <ic56> obi: perhaps I am wronge, but boot=/dev/sda9/u/casper doesn't look right.  Unless the kernel has drastically changed, you cannot append a pathname (/u/casper) to a device name (/dev/sda9) and expect the kernel to look inside that device for that pathname
[01:08] <blix> right....
[01:08] <blix> I'm going to have one more look and try a few commands
[01:08] <blix> I shall be right back
[01:08] <rjh> im trying to install flash player and i get is this /home/rjh/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux: is a directory

[01:09] <nathan__> if anyone knows how to change ubuntu's menu color let me know
[01:09] <bruenig> rjh, that is a directory
[01:09] <rjh> and im doing what directions say to do
[01:09] <bruenig> rjh, just move libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[01:09] <bruenig> that's all
[01:10] <rjh> ok thanks
[01:10] <nathan__> why is it so difficult to change the color of them menus in ubuntu???
[01:10] <Kossilar> Blix, you still here?
[01:10] <bruenig> nathan__, don't know if creating an explicit menu color option is high on priority lists
[01:10] <rjh> system> preference>themes
[01:11] <bruenig> nathan__, you know what is also hard, making 23.4% of the panel colored like a rainbow
[01:11] <bruenig> they need to get on that
[01:11] <Kossilar> Blix, are you still around?
[01:11] <nathan__> bruening: perhaps they could look into 'windows 95', this new program they could learn from
[01:11] <ic56> titancompu: if you want to boot from it, yes, you have to make the partition bootable.  I'm not sure if grub will understand ISO format on a harddisk though.  Basically, you need to create a partition/filesystem that, when mounted, looks like your normal root filesystem.  I.e. it contains a /boot /bin /vmlinuz etc

[01:12] <ic56> titancompu: sorry, that message was for obi
[01:12] <bruenig> nathan__, it is a silly option, it is not something of importance at all, at the point where things get that low, you have so many customizable things that it becomes even more ridiculous than kde

[01:13] <obi> i'll try on that waj ic56

[01:13] <rjh> does any on also know how to make beryl to work?
[01:13] <ic56> good luck, obi
[01:13] <obi> thx!
[01:13] <bruenig> Grungebunny, lol, customization and ubuntu clever, linux and customization maybe, but customization and ubuntu is a bit much

[01:14] <smoddy> can anyone tell me how to start Kubuntu in text mode?
[01:14] <xp_prg> anyone know how I can get this?
[01:14] <Scunizi> smoddy, you could ask on #kubuntu if no one here knows.
[01:14] <Grungebunny> bruenig I love widgets and compiz and all the neat lil things you can do to make your desktop unique.. it makes it 'yours'
[01:14] <nathan__> bruenig: that's the dumbest thing I've heard in a while sorry, if you think customizing the desktop is silly you really need help
[01:14] <bruenig> Grungebunny, ok none of those things have to do with ubuntu
[01:15] <smoddy> or how to install a package from repositories without going through the normal boot process
[01:15] <wailer> jal: if ubuntu sees your windows just copy the files to it from ubuntu
[01:15] <noctol> i have a problem with my screen.there are strange vertical lines on my screen when running 1280x1024.i have set everything in xorg.conf like described in the papers of my screen (horiz and vert frequency).still there are these lines.what can i do?in the papers of my screen also "pixel clock (mhz)" is mentioned, don't know if that's important
[01:15] <smoddy> Scunizi: I suppose I could... I don't want to load a desktop environment, so I guess it's the same as ubuntu?
[01:15] <Grungebunny> bruenig well no not specifically but its the name of the channel ;)
[01:15] <bruenig> nathan__, I am saying that if you are going to attack some sort of lack of feature that allows you to change the color of the menu, then you have no idea what you are talking about
[01:15] <tomaw> S/41
[01:15] <Scunizi> smoody, probably,, never tried it in kde environ.
[01:16] <ja1> wailer-- that makes sense but i want to use the hd space from the ubuntu partition because the windows partition only have 1.2g left on it.
[01:16] <ic56> ja1: you want to setup your machine so that it has a partition that is readable by both operating systems.   Windows cannot read Linux's ext3  and Linux cannot safely write to
[01:16] <nathan__> bruenig: it's the complete lack of any basic commands and options that is really stupid... linux is supposed to be about flexibility but in this case it's about on par with windows 3.1
[01:16] <bruenig> !ops | nathan__ trolling idiot
[01:16] <ubotu> nathan__ trolling idiot: Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti, mneptok or Pici
[01:17] <nalioth> nathan__: please be civil
[01:17] <Hadron> bruenig: people who don't agree with you are not trolls.
[01:17] <bruenig> it isn't the lack of civility that is bothersome, it is the lack of competence
[01:17] <bruenig> lack of basic commands? really
[01:17] <bruenig> linux?
[01:17] <SeveredCross> nathan__: How is Linux on part with Windows 3.1 regarding basic commands and options?
[01:17] <ja1> ic56 -- how do i do that?
[01:17] <PriceChild> bruenig, please ignore him and move on. I'm just reading backlog
[01:17] <ic56> ja1: ...write to Windows's NTFS.  The lowest common denominator is the DOS filesystem FAT and FAT32.  Both Windows and Linux can safely read/write that filesystem
[01:17] <nathan__> if linux is serious about changing the computer market, perhaps you should all get down from your 1990's high chair and look into such bothersome features as 'customization'
[01:18] <SeveredCross> Are you NUTS?
[01:18] <nathan__> SeveredCross: because that was the last version of windows where you couldn't change the menu colors
[01:18] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[01:18] <SeveredCross> Uh..
[01:18] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:18] <Amaranth> nathan__: you can change them all you want
[01:18] <SeveredCross> You can change the colors in Ubuntu.
[01:18] <SeveredCross> It's very easy.
[01:18] <Amaranth> nathan__: you just have to edit a text file
[01:18] <bruenig> trolls
[01:18] <nathan__> bruenig informs me that is a silly option that linux can't be bothered with
[01:18] <SeveredCross> Amaranth: Not even...
[01:18] <SeveredCross> System --> Preferences --> Appearance.
[01:18] <Grungebunny> amaranth got a guide on doing that?
[01:18] <ja1> ic56 - but my win xp is installed using ntfs, how can i convert it to fat32
[01:18] <PriceChild> nathan__, linux != gnome
[01:18] <javaJake> What's the best way to find out _where_ Vista is on which hard drive in order to configure GRUB? Besides manually mounting as many sd* and hd* /dev files as I can.
[01:18] <SeveredCross> jal: You can't.
[01:18] <Hadron> SeveredCross: which desktop manager? ,,,
[01:18] <bruenig> linux is a kernel
[01:19] <Amaranth> SeveredCross: to get truly custom colors you have to make your own gtkrc
[01:19] <SeveredCross> GNOME.
[01:19] <Amaranth> Grungebunny: it's pretty obvious once you look at the files
[01:19] <SeveredCross> True, for truly custom colors you need your own gtkrc, but there are tools for that.
[01:19] <nixternal> nathan__: umm, you can do whatever with Linux, but you are referring to the desktop environment..and if Gnome isn't customizable enough for you, then there is KDE
[01:19] <nathan__> PriceChild: linux != an OS either but let's not pick apart hairs
[01:19] <Amaranth> Grungebunny: uses HTML-style color codes
[01:19] <nixternal> also, #ubuntu-offtopic is where this talk belongs
[01:19] <ic56> ja1: Chances are that your Windows partitions (in Windows they're called "drives") are NTFS.  Chances are that all your Ubuntu partitions are formatted to contain ext3 filesystems.  Which means, you're out of luck.
[01:19] <PriceChild> nathan__, I don't remember saying that it was. Now please don't be cheeky and stay on topic.
[01:20] <ic56> ja1: you will have to repartition to enable easy sharing between teh two OSs.
[01:20] <noctol> i have a problem with my screen.there are strange vertical lines on my screen when running 1280x1024.i have set everything in xorg.conf like described in the papers of my screen (horiz and vert frequency).still there are these lines.what can i do?in the papers of my screen also "pixel clock (mhz)" is mentioned, don't know if that's important
[01:20] <nathan__> if there's  no simple way to change only the menu colors in ubuntu linux, there's really no point to even explore it further
[01:20] <ic56> ja1: of course, if the files are small enough, you could use floppies or even CD-RW

[01:20] <ic56> ja1: or you could use the network -- upload the file to some server from Ubuntu, and re-download it from Windows.
[01:21] <nixternal> nathan__: that is gnome for you, not ubuntu...if you need to configure the color of your menus, you can do it with KDE...however to continue this talk, head to #ubuntu-offtopic please

[01:21] <ubotu> DrumN: 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.
[01:21] <nathan__> DrumN: Deluge is awesome

[01:21] <corevette> sorry bruenig
[01:21] <falconair> hi, i just installed ubuntu server ... i didn't realize that the server didn't come with a window manager at all (I know, stupid) ... how can i get ubuntu's desktop without re-installing the desktop version cd?
[01:21] <Hadron> This NG covers Kubuntu too.
[01:21] <Socrates_infoxp> hi
[01:21] <Hadron> Or?
[01:21] <nixternal> falconair: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:21] <javaJake> Curs0r, cron's your best option. I recommend you look at gnome-schedule if you don't want to have to work with cron's config file. :)
[01:21] <falconair> nixternal: thanks
[01:21] <javaJake> Curs0r, gnome-schedule is a GUI interface to cron.
[01:21] <nixternal> no problem
[01:22] <nathan__> what is an example of a topic having to do with ubuntu which I could ask about in here and not be referred somewhere else?
[01:22] <ja1> iv56 -- oh ok, thanks for the help and info
[01:22] <Curs0r> that was quite the rousing endorsement for cron
[01:22] <ic56> ja1: to my knowledge, there's no way to convert an NTFS filesystem to FAT32 -- you have to backup, re-format, and restore.  But, even if that were practical, you don't want to do that for
[01:22] <bruenig> nathan__, network problems
[01:22] <nixternal> nathan__: this channel is for support, your trolling like features don't belong here, nor offtopic really
[01:22] <G00B3R> Evening Yall!
[01:22] <Socrates_infoxp> any body of u is a staff of this server freenode???
[01:22] <ic56> ja1: Windows's boot filesystem because without NTFS a good chunk of Windows security won't work.
[01:22] <PriceChild> Socrates_infoxp, /stats p
[01:22] <kloeri> Socrates_infoxp: yes, what's up?
[01:23] <ic56> ja1: you're welcome
[01:23] <erstazi> with the bug 11517, I cannot figure out what to do properly, I have read it all and done what some have said that worked but it still does not unmount the disk properly
[01:23] <nathan__> nixternal: I'm sure you're really special in this channel and everything but please don't name call people who think a lack of basic features is rediculous
[01:23] <Socrates_infoxp> kloeri
[01:23] <Hadron> nathan__: asking baout configuring Gnome menus IS on topic here.
[01:23] <Socrates_infoxp> u r staff of here?
[01:23] <BettyBoop> I am looking for a music web-based filesharing program for my ubuntu server
[01:23] <PriceChild> kloeri, he is yes.
[01:23] <nathan__> Hadron: seems to be a question about that...
[01:23] <kloeri> I'm freenode staff, yes
[01:23] <nixternal> nathan__: I didn't name call, but your actions are borderline trollish, sorry
[01:23] <Curs0r> this appears to execute daily at the most though
[01:23] <Socrates_infoxp> aok
[01:23] <erstazi> BettyBoop: slimserver
[01:23] <Socrates_infoxp> i have been banned
[01:23] <bruenig> borderline is the understatement of the day
[01:23] <Meroigo_> Maybe someone here has some kind of answer to the following problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=534558
[01:24] <nixternal> bruenig: :)
[01:24] <PriceChild> bruenig, ignore it please.
[01:24] <Hadron> BettyBoop: What is a "music based" web server? One that sings?
[01:24] <BettyBoop> apt-get slimserver?
[01:24] <Socrates_infoxp> for ip and i dont know whay?
[01:24] <Socrates_infoxp> can u help me
[01:24] <zlaptopx> :(
[01:24] <kloeri> Socrates_infoxp: /msg me the ip and I'll see what I can do
[01:24] <BettyBoop> TX I'll google it
[01:24] <erstazi> BettyBoop: google slimserver, you have to add the repositories for slimserver
[01:24] <Socrates_infoxp> aa ok whay
[01:24] <Socrates_infoxp> please
[01:24] <zlaptopx> why does the ubuntu install not see my partitions? it just sees my whole harddrive
[01:24] <BettyBoop> TX
[01:25] <erstazi> BettyBoop: no problem (:
[01:25] <nathan__> now that you mention network-related issues, and since no one knows how to change the menu color, can someone help me figure out why I cannot access my MS computer through ubuntu?
[01:25] <Hadron> zlaptopx: YOu eman the install process or a new installation?
[01:25] <Curs0r> I'd like it to run much more often tha htis
[01:25] <ja1> ic56 - how do i repartition? i want to give win xp drive more free space coz when i installed ubuntu, i gave it a lot of hd space and leave xp with just 1.2g. how do i get xp back some free space like 5g more?
[01:25] <nixternal> nathan__: have you checked out samba?
[01:25] <erstazi> nathan__: I have changed my menu colors
[01:25] <zlaptopx> Hadron a new install
[01:25] <SeveredCross> nathan__: Do you have Samba all set up?
[01:25] <ic56> nathan__: changing the menu colours should definitely be possible, but you may have to dig into the GNOME configuration with a text editor.  I know I was looking into this 2 years ago, I don't remember if I succeeded or not
[01:25] <nixternal> erstazi: I know I have seen the menu colors changed as well, but I don't use gnome so I wouldn't be much help
[01:25] <Hadron> zlaptopx: did you mount them?
[01:25] <nathan__> erstazi: did you manage to change the colors of the menu only?
[01:25] <erstazi> nathan__: do you mean the font colors or the actual background colors of the menus
[01:26] <nathan__> erstazi: I want the background to be black.
[01:26] <zlaptopx> Hadron i only have 1 and no?
[01:26] <erstazi> nathan__: find a black theme
[01:26] <erstazi> nathan__: I believe thats theme dependent. (:
[01:26] <nathan__> SeveredCross: I have the default install of ubuntu. I can see my MS computer and it's files (no authentication??), but I can't copy or read them or anything..
[01:26] <erstazi> nathan__: then you need to change your font color
[01:27] <Hadron> zlaptopx: I don't understand. Do you know about "mount"? If not google it up.
[01:27] <nathan__> erstazi: no I don't but thanks for noticing I might
[01:27] <erstazi> nathan__: for networking, sudo apt-get install samba
[01:27] <erstazi> nathan__: or use synaptic
[01:27] <nathan__> erstazi: I installed ubuntu that has it already right
[01:27] <mhiku> umm out of the channel question: where do i go here in freenode to develop IC chips like video-usb , hubs router, making one of those? and what programming language to learn?
[01:27] <Hadron> erstazi: I think he knows how to install things. It's confuiguring that is the issue.
[01:27] <erstazi> nathan__: ok, might want to follow the wiki's example
[01:27] <zlaptopx> Hadron yeah I know about mounting but iv never had to do it before when installing ubuntu.. usualy it sees all my partitions and allows me to format them serperatly not just the whole drive
[01:27] <erstazi> Hadron: I see this (:
[01:27] <tigran> how do I delete folders that have only root access
[01:28] <erstazi> tigran: become root
[01:28] <bruenig> tigran, sudo rmdir directory
[01:28] <nathan__> erstazi: nvm it's not installed, doing that now
[01:28] <tigran> thanks
[01:28] <ic56> ja1: There is a tool for repartitioning but I have never used it. But when you undertake that kind of work, there is always the danger that you will lose data.  To be safe, you will want to backup your files first.
[01:28] <SeveredCross> Or, if you need to use nautilus: gksu nautilus
[01:28] <Hadron> tigran: "sudo rm -rf fildername"
[01:28] <Hadron> tigran: be bloody careful
[01:28] <nathan__> k samba is installed
[01:28] <ic56> !ubotu partition >ja1
[01:29] <erstazi> nathan__: the GUI way to get your network is to go to Places > Network
[01:29] <rjune> !multimedia
[01:29] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[01:29] <erstazi> nathan__: sometimes even a log out - log in or reboot is required
[01:29] <ic56> ja1: did you get the message from ubotu about GParted?
[01:30] <nathan__> erstazi: it's asking for a password, and blank doesn't work (though that's what it's set up for)... and for domain it has MSHOME
[01:30] <ja1> ic56 - i think its easier to uninstall ubuntu and let win xp reclaim all of the hard disk space, then make a clean install of ubuntu? what do u think?
[01:30] <erstazi> nathan__: use your root password
[01:30] <bruenig> don't have it reclaim the whole thing, if you take that approach partition it such that it only takes up whatever you want it to take
[01:30] <nathan__> erstazi: to connect to my gf's laptop i mean
[01:31] <erstazi> nathan__: what OS is she using?
[01:31] <nathan__> vista
[01:31] <ja1> bruenig - how do i do that
[01:31] <bruenig> xp has a partitioner
[01:31] <erstazi> nathan__: it has administrator rights, you need to find the administrator's password
[01:31] <bish0p> so, my compiz window manager has recently (after those latest updates) decided to ignore my ccsm configuration settings (window focus, keybindings) -- anybody else seeing this?
[01:31] <bruenig> the install does
[01:31] <Grungebunny> erstazi my condolences
[01:31] <erstazi> Grungebunny: ?
[01:32] <rjune> can anybody tell me where to find the termcap-compat package?
[01:32] <nathan__> erstazi: she is set up for filesharing and has the account: nathan with no password, so that I can access her computer with my windows machines just fine.
[01:32] <ic56> ja1: absolutely.  If ubuntu is a recent install and you have few or no personal files on it, by all means re-install.  However, I don't think that Windows can expand its partition.  Instead, you'll have to create a new FAT32 partition that you use for sharing.  You can do that either from Windows, or from the Ubuntu installer.
[01:32] <Grungebunny> erstazi a joke on the vista thing
[01:32] <erstazi> Grungebunny: I don't use vista
[01:32] <intelikey> i tried to mount an nfs share for archives but now i get     tty24 [root@~]  ls /var/cache/apt/archives/
[01:32] <intelikey> ls: /var/cache/apt/archives/: Permission denied
[01:32] <Grungebunny> erstazi express the condlences to her I meant
[01:32] <rjune> ic56: I'm not up on the conversation, but would gparted be of use?
[01:32] <erstazi> nathan__: well, I never had a problem with that, but it might be pointing to the vista administrator's password I don't know
[01:32] <b14ck> hey. i need to install my nvidia driver. it says i need xclosed. how can i exit xserver for a minute, then start it up again?
[01:33] <erstazi> Grungebunny: its nathan__'s gf
[01:33] <bruenig> intelikey, that's not goo
[01:33] <bruenig> d
[01:33] <intelikey> how can root be denied permission   ?
[01:33] <nathan__> Grudebunny: wanna hear a funny thing about vista? it worked in far less time than this is taking.
[01:33] <erstazi> Grungebunny: my wife knows better (:
[01:33] <rjune> intelikey: root_squash on the NFS server
[01:33] <bruenig> root can be denied permission if it denies itself permission
[01:33] <intelikey> rjune ?
[01:33] <Grungebunny> well my joke just got polverized
[01:33] <bish0p> intelikey: root is commonly denied from interacting with NFS mounts
[01:33] <b14ck> hey. i need to install my nvidia driver. it says i need xclosed. how can i exit xserver for a minute, then start it up again?
[01:33] <ironmata1> b14ch  the command as follows
[01:33] <ja1> ic56 -- how do i do this repartitioning with gparted
[01:33] <bish0p> intelikey: called rootsquash
[01:33] <ic56> rjune: I thought so, and I asked ubotu to tell ja1 about GParted, but ja1 hasn't acknowledged receiving that message.
[01:33] <Grungebunny> nathan yeah they make it easy for you to get DRM installed ;)
[01:34] <nathan__> linux !> windows for all uses
[01:34] <rjune> ic56: ok then.
[01:34] <SeveredCross> b14ck: init 3 I think?
[01:34] <intelikey> bish0p well users are denied too
[01:34] <ic56> rjune: wanna tell ja1 how to use GParted?  I've never used it.
[01:34] <erstazi> nathan__: well, honestly, samba works well if you follow the instructions
[01:34] <ja1> ic56 -- thanks
[01:34] <b14ck> SeveredCross: ?
[01:34] <intelikey> bish0p where is this setting found "rootsquash" ?
[01:34] <nathan__> drm? you must be thinking of mac
[01:34] <SeveredCross> b14ck: init 3 at a commandline would drop you to single-user mode with no X.
[01:34] <erstazi> nathan__: the reason why Ubuntu might be hard to work with on that end, its by default very secure, so you have to open some things up
[01:34] <bish0p> intelikely: on the export (server)
[01:34] <rjune> ja1: first, install it
[01:34] <rjune> then run it, it's similar to part. magic.
[01:35] <ironmata1> b14ck:  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:35] <nathan__> erstazi: I agree and I love linux
[01:35] <intelikey> bish0p where is this setting found "rootsquash" on the export server ?
[01:35] <b14ck> ironmatal. when i reboot will it come back on automatically?
[01:35] <rjune> intelikey: /etc/exports
[01:35] <bish0p> intellikely: in the exports file
[01:35] <MeRodent> Can anyone help me with forcing a non-recommended printer driver to be used?
[01:35] <rjune> it's root_squash
[01:35] <erstazi> nathan__: but yes, networking is a breeze with windows based OSes... but in the long run, its more secure with Linux
[01:35] <ironmata1> b14ck:  same command string with start at the end to restart
[01:35] <intelikey> rjune    /home/archives                 192.168.0.0/24(rw,sync)
[01:35] <ja1> rjune -- i want to remove ubunto partition and have windows reclaim all of the hard disk space
[01:35] <erstazi> nathan__: btw, I had no problem networking with Linux > Vista so just follow the instructions on the wiki
[01:35] <intelikey> must not be that ...
[01:36] <nathan__> erstazi: again, I agree. however mindless MS bashing is counterproductive to the community and does nothing good for linux dev.
[01:36] <erstazi> nathan__: my brother has Vista, so I had to network once
[01:36] <bish0p> intelikey: no_root_squash then.. or is it norootsquash.. little googling will answer that
[01:36] <erstazi> nathan__: definitely not bashing here
[01:36] <rjune> ja1: then try gparted, or if you go to the gparted website you can make a boot CD and use it.
[01:36] <rjune> nathan__: what's the problem?
[01:36] <bish0p> intelikey: you might also consider doing the mount at some other point, /mnt/archives perhaps, and then make /var/cache/archives a sym link
[01:36] <nathan__> erstazi: every day of the week I work with vista, xp, windows 2000, gentoo, ipcop and ubuntu
[01:36] <rjune> nathan__: I'm so sorry man. I wouldn't wish gentoo on anybody
[01:36] <erstazi> with the bug 11517, I cannot figure out what to do properly, I have read it all and done what some have said that worked but it still does not unmount the disk properly
[01:36] <nathan__> rjune: I'm wondering in samba what domain and password I am supposed to use to connect to vista machine
[01:37] <intelikey> bish0p and that would help,  how ?
[01:37] <ja1> rjune -- doesn't the live cd have gparted on it? maybe i can boot from the live cd
[01:37] <ic56> ja1: assuming you have just one disk, I think you want to end up with a disk partitionned like so: 1 NTFS partit (teh existing windows boot/root partit), 1 big FAT32 partit, 1 or 2 ext3 partits, 1 Linux swap partit.
[01:37] <bish0p> intellike: not help.. i just feel odd about doing a NFS mount inside /var
[01:37] <rjune> ja1: there is a gparted livecd. you can get it from the gparted website
[01:37] <rjune> nathan__: I'm guesssing domain is whatever you have your workgroup set to in vista, this is your home network right?
[01:38] <nathan__> rjune: the vista machine has an account for nathan with no password and I'm not on a domain. workgroup is 'workgroup', however the default listed is MSHOME for the domain
[01:38] <mick_laptop> hi everyone, i have a luks/dm_crypt encrypted disk that i'd like to open (w/ luksOpen) -- it says that i don't have aes_cbc_.... something compiled into my kernel -- how can i install it? lsmod shows aes, and cbc support --- i forget what the last part had said
[01:38] <mick_laptop> any assistance would be appreciated
[01:38] <mick_laptop> :)
[01:38] <ja1> ic56 -- ok, i'll check out the gparted website and keeping my fingers crossed :D
[01:38] <nathan__> rjune: what i mean is the default SAMBA is saying is MSHOME
[01:38] <erstazi> nathan__: if the workgroup is "workgroup" for the vista then change the domain to workgroup
[01:38] <ironmata1> b1
[01:38] <rjune> I would seriously doubt whether a blank password is allowed.
[01:38] <ja1> thanks for all the help
[01:38] <ic56> ja1: good luck.
[01:39] <ic56> rjune: thank you for your help with ja1
[01:39] <b14ck> hey... i need to install libc headers. what package is for that?
[01:39] <rjune> nathan__: you should set workgroup to workgroup on tye samba box.
[01:39] <intelikey> rjune errr maybe something needs to be running on the client that isn't  ????
[01:39] <nathan__> didn't work
[01:39] <ironmata1> b14ck:  same command string  with start at the end to restart
[01:39] <nathan__> and it doesn't have 'workgroup', it has domain
[01:39] <ironmata1> u left befoer i was finished
[01:39] <rjune> intelikey: portmap on the server, nfs on the server.
[01:39] <b14ck> hey... i need to install libc headers. what package is for that?
[01:39] <rjune> I think that's it.
[01:39] <nathan__> username: nathan, domain: MSHOME, password:
[01:39] <intelikey> rjune any idea what all on the client though ?
[01:39] <Meroigo_> When I rebooted my computer before, Ubuntu shut down, then outside of ubuntu (the kernel? :P) it said "ubuntu kernel: [8275.617733]  CIFS VFS: server not responding" two times. Worth mentioning is that I mount from two SMB shares with cifs in fstab. But the computer stopped to rebooting and I couldn't write anything so I had to do a hard shutdown by holding in the power button.
[01:40] <erstazi> nathan__: ok, your workgroup name is "workgroup"?
[01:40] <nathan__> yeah
[01:40] <rjune> nathan__: and you're trying to use vista as the server right?
[01:40] <erstazi> nathan__: can you replace MSHOME with workgroup?
[01:40] <nickrud> b14ck, install build-essential, that will pull them in with other useful stuff (the package is libc6-dev)
[01:40] <nathan__> rjune: no I just want to share files
[01:40] <emeriste> how do i extract a tar to a certain directory?
[01:40] <nathan__> erstazi: yes, didn't work
[01:40] <Meroigo_> so, any idea on how to fix it? put a command in some shutdown script somewhere, like umount -a? :)
[01:40] <rjune> nathan__: are the files on the vista machine?
[01:40] <nathan__> I'm not trying to set up a domain, I just want file sharing
[01:40] <erstazi> nathan__: different lingo
[01:40] <nathan__> rjune: I want access two way
[01:40] <b14ck> Meroigo_: you need to go to another virtual terminal. when you get to that black terminal screen with the error, hold alt and press 1, 2, 3, etc to switch to a log in screen
[01:40] <nickrud> emeriste, easiest is cd to the directory, then tar xf /path/to/tar
[01:41] <intelikey> emeriste cd that/dir/ ;tar -xf /path/to/archive.tar
[01:41] <erstazi> nathan__: on ubuntu, edit your /etc/samba/smb.conf
[01:41] <rjune> nathan__: file server == machien that actually houses the files.
[01:41] <Curs0r> cron does not seem to be working at all here
[01:41] <midnightToker> has anyone had the problem where your keyboard stops responding after resuming from suspend?
[01:41] <nefer> nefer
[01:41] <nefer> hola
[01:41] <nefer> hola
[01:41] <nathan__> I want to be able to control completely her computer and vise versa
[01:41] <ironmata1> b14ck:  sudo sh NVIDIA.xxxxxxx.run after the gdm stop command and you log in at prompt
[01:41] <nathan__> well i mean her files**
[01:41] <rjune> you want to control her computer? or share files with her computer?
[01:41] <nefer> hola
[01:41] <nathan__> files files sorry =] 
[01:41] <emeriste> Thanks. Do you have to move the tar to that directory first though?
[01:41] <nefer> espaol
[01:42] <rjune> does either direction work?
[01:42] <nickrud> emeriste, no, that's why you use the full path
[01:42] <emeriste> Oh okay cool.
[01:42] <nefer> hola
[01:42] <nefer> emeriste
[01:42] <nefer> hola
[01:42] <Curs0r> cron: can't open or create /var/run/crond.pid: Permission denied
[01:42] <midnightToker> has anyone had the problem where your keyboard stops responding after resuming from suspend?
[01:42] <nefer> helo
[01:42] <nathan__> her computer = doesn't see me, my computer = sees her but can't log in. interstingly I don't need a log in to see my other computer and I can see but can't read the files
[01:42] <erstazi> nathan__: ok here is the deal
[01:42] <erstazi> nathan__: I got the perfect link for you
[01:42] <erstazi> nathan__: http://www.go2linux.org/node/98
[01:42] <klaus> hallo
[01:43] <rjune> nathan__: you're logged in as guest probably.
[01:43] <ic56> bish0p: /mnt is being overused.  It's official purpose is to be a scratch place, for temporary mounts while doing system maintenance -- *not* a place for permanent mounts.
[01:43] <nathan__> rjune: you mean on my other computer
[01:43] <Curs0r> cron: can't open or create /var/run/crond.pid: Permission denied
[01:43] <erstazi> nathan__: I still think you need administrator username and password for vista, your nathan username does not have administrator rights
[01:43] <File13> is there a terminal desklet
[01:43] <Pelo> congradulations PwcrLinux
[01:43] <Esteth> A wine-game has changed the resolution of one of my dualview monitors. Is there a way to get it back to normal without the hastle of an x-restart?
[01:43] <rjune> nathan__: yah
[01:43] <nathan__> erstazi: I know what you're saying but that's not right (that's default), but that has been changed here
[01:44] <Socrates_infoxp> kloeri
[01:44] <Socrates_infoxp> r u there?
[01:44] <rjune> Esteth: <ctrl>-<alt>-<+>
[01:44] <erstazi> nathan__: what has been changed?
[01:44] <Pelo> File13, do you have gdesklets or screenlets installed ? check in the manager
[01:44] <File13> gdesklets
[01:44] <ic56> bish0p: as for mounting stuff directly under /var and /usr , doing so is traditional in more complex unix installations.  However, to prevent dependencies when mounting filesystems, sometimes admins create a directory of directories off the root filesystem and redirect to those places with symlinks (as you suggested to intelikey)
[01:44] <nathan__> erstazi: what you are thinking of is that no additional account exists for it
[01:44] <Grungebunny> kinda off topic, im helping a buddy out.. he claims he has a virus that keeps reoccuring even after formatting.. is this possible?
[01:44] <P_Kable> Since I upgraded compiz to compiz-fusion apt tells me to upgrade compiz-core. I did it at least 100 times but it keeps asking me to upgrade compiz-core ... any idea ?
[01:44] <Esteth> rjune: Not working :(
[01:44] <Curs0r> Grungebunny, if his install disc is tainted yes
[01:44] <PwcrLinux> Pelo: Yea, I just found out, the instruction pretty wrong way. I learned that way FF to install the fp 9 and then once it's installed. Close FF windows and restart FF up seem working good
[01:44] <rjune> Esteth: you used the + on the nubmer pad right?
[01:44] <erstazi> nathan__: ok, no additional account exists? she has an account right? but there should be an administrator's account as well
[01:44] <nathan__> erstazi: on vista machine 1 you make an account for the name of the default user for vista machine 2, and share with it, then he can log in automatically without using admin rights
[01:45] <Pelo> P_Kable,  ask in #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion
[01:45] <Esteth> rjune: yes
[01:45] <P_Kable> ok Pelo
[01:45] <rjune> Esteth: not sure then, it works here, and on every other linux box I've used.
[01:45] <erstazi> nathan__: yes but at the same time, Microsoft has had administrator since NT I believe
[01:45] <nathan__> erstazi: I DO have additional accounts, I was telling you why by default you are right but it's not that way now
[01:45] <lindar> I have a secondary HDD that's NTFS formatted. For some reason I don't have write access to it, only read. I've tried to chown it, but it doesn't seem to work.
[01:45] <ironmata1> can somone run down the wine uninstall
[01:45] <Esteth> lindar: ntfs-3g
[01:45] <erstazi> nathan__: ok. did you get that link?
[01:45] <nathan__> yeah let me check it out brb thanks
[01:45] <Pelo> !ntfs-3g | lindar
[01:45] <ubotu> lindar: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:46] <rjune> nathan__: if she does \\IP_OF_UBUNTU_SYSTEM on her vista box, what happens?
[01:46] <Meroigo_> When I run Torrent with wine, the exe file disappears when I quit it. So I have to re-download it. :P anyone know how to fix it? XD
[01:46] <lindar> Awesome.
[01:46] <Esteth> rjune: ok, i think i'll just have to restart X
[01:46] <rjune> ok, anybody know where I can find termcap-compat?
[01:46] <Ash-Fox> Would anyone happen to have any idea on how to change the IP address of sub network devices without effecting the master. Such as changing eth0:1, eth0:2 without effecting eth0? I have tried 'macchanger', but that kept changing the IP addresses for all of those on eth0.
[01:46] <Pelo> MeRodent,  put in in a folder in your /home folder and you probabaly didn't download it ,you probably just ran it from the site,  save it to your hdd
[01:47] <thedash> what does it mean when my entire CPU is in the 'wa' category of top ?
[01:47] <nathan__> rjune: asks for password
[01:47] <Pelo> Ash-Fox,  check in menu > systrem > admin > network tools

[01:47] <adamorjames> A question: How to manually edit keyboard shortcuts such as "Launch Browser", "Pause", etc
[01:47] <Ash-Fox> Pelo, this is on a server
[01:47] <adamorjames> By manually I mean through a text editor
[01:47] <Pelo> Ash-Fox,  I don'T know how to do it from the command line, sorry I'm a WIMP
[01:48] <adamorjames> I need to know where the advanced shortcuts are located
[01:48] <rjune> nathan__: you did smbpasswd -a to create the samba account right?
[01:48] <chamunks> does anyone here know how to install libwiimote in feisty???
[01:48] <Ash-Fox> Pelo, from what I recall, the graphical interface didn't even offer to create virtual devices.
[01:48] <Pelo> adamorjames, do a search in the forum for multimedia keyboard
[01:48] <adamorjames> ok Pelo
[01:48] <nickrud> adamorjames, use gconf-editor, , sec while I find the keys
[01:48] <nathan__> rjune: I just installed it that's all
[01:48] <adamorjames> ok nickrud
[01:48] <rjune> thedash: means your CPU is waiting, I'm guessing you're doing a hard drive intensive thing
[01:48] <thedash> rjune :: atm I am doing nothing
[01:48] <thedash> though gnome appears to have crashed as well
[01:49] <rjune> thedash: your computer then.
[01:49] <rjune> is the hd light going nuts?
[01:49] <kondeDrakul> anyone use modem usb adsl ?
[01:49] <nickrud> adamorjames, apps/gnome-settings_daemon/keybindings
[01:49] <adamorjames> thanks nickrud
[01:49] <thedash> rjune :: the hard drive and power LEDs are nonfunctional on this motherboard, for whatever reason
[01:49] <thedash> however, the system log thingy doesn't show much disk usage
[01:49] <Pelo> kondeDrakul, search your modem's model in the forum  chances are it is listed with some advive
[01:49] <Pelo> adice
[01:49] <lindar> Ehm.... I think this app is for viewing NTFS partitions. I have no problem with that, I just can't write to it. Maybe I'm missing something?
[01:50] <rjune> nathan__: ok, you'll definatly want that link you were given then you have to create user accounts for samba. it kinda sucks, but only one distro has filesharing with windows setup well.
[01:50] <nathan__> which distro?
[01:50] <kondeDrakul> Pelo ,what forum?
[01:50] <Hadron> nathan, can you not use ssh or sshfs?
[01:50] <rjune> nathan__: SLES
[01:50] <Pelo> lindar,  ntfs-3g is for writing to ntfs
[01:50] <dr_Willis> whats so hard about setting up samba. :)
[01:50] <Pelo> kondeDrakul,  www.ubuntuforums.org
[01:50] <riaal_> is it normal to have 4 of the same users loged in?
[01:50] <dr_Willis> Then again - ive fought with it for years.. and every few months i reread the using samba book.,
[01:50] <Curs0r> helllooooooooooooooo? this crontab thing doesn't work at all
[01:50] <nathan__> dr_Willis: everything I'm going through right now =/
[01:51] <rjune> dr_Willis: I don't like dicking around with multiple password entries.
[01:51] <chamunks> does anyone here know how to install libwiimote in feisty???
[01:51] <lindar> Pelo: I need something so I can do it from the GUI.
[01:51] <Esteth> lindar: grab ntfs-config, and ntfs-3g from synaptic, then do ntfs-config at the terminal with the drive you want to make writable unmounted
[01:51] <dr_Willis> nathan__,  ive had MUCH more issues with getting vista and xp to play nicely
[01:51] <Pelo> Curs0r,  what are you trying to get it to do
[01:51] <Pelo> lindar,  ntfs-3g
[01:51] <Curs0r> Pelo, run a command every 15 minutes
[01:51] <dr_Willis> I do tend to keep my samba stuff simple.
[01:51] <rjune> nathan__: with SLES, you add the user, they can use samba.
[01:51] <Curs0r> Pelo, just a basic shell script
[01:51] <endo4977> someone please educate me here.  I'm in a 'bin' directory, I can see the binary i want is 'ls', its executable, I can use tab-completion to type it out.  When i run it, it get 'no such file or directory'??? any ideas?
[01:51] <dr_Willis> share homes. and each machine has a 'public'
[01:51] <Pelo> Curs0r,  you'll need to put in 4 instances
[01:51] <nathan__> dr_Willis: takes me about ~3 minutes to get vista and xp working perfectly together
[01:51] <dr_Willis> rjune,  so they basicially just auto 'smbpasswd -a newuser'
[01:51] <Curs0r> ah
[01:51] <lindar> Esteth: Ah. Thank you much.
[01:52] <nickrud> endo4977, the directory you're in is not on the path; try ./ls
[01:52] <dr_Willis> nathan__,  i got them working... then they stop... then they started working... then they stopped.. all within the same hr. :)
[01:52] <Hadron> Curs0r: And what is the program and what happens? Did you install and run gnome-schedule or run crontab -e?
[01:52] <rjune> dr_Willis: nope. more like proper integration.
[01:52] <Pelo> Curs0r,  paste a sample line of your crontab entry , so I can check it
[01:52] <emeriste> if I'm going to install from source do i take the tar.gz file to the directory that I want the final application to be in?
[01:52] <rjune> it's all done in LDAP. change it once and you're done.
[01:52] <mikeh0209> if i am using the linux 2.6.20-16-generic kernel and i took my hdd out of my intel p3 dual processor machine and put it in my amd 1.6ghz machine, would it boot and run
[01:52] <dr_Willis> ubuntu does take a 'run no services, or anything else by default' mentality.
[01:52] <emeriste> I mean do i take the source.tar.gz file to the directory first?
[01:52] <nathan__> dr_Willis: sounds like a user error. I work with hundreds of systems each month and there is never a problem with that.. ever.
[01:52] <nickrud> emeriste, no, work on it in your home somewhere; make install will put it where it goes
[01:52] <emeriste> Oh cool.
[01:52] <endo4977> nickrud: sorry i typed it wrong.   I can see the executable using ls, when i run it I use ./foo.
[01:53] <dr_Willis> nathan__,  cant be much of a user error when the things are just  apparing/dissapearing as i refresh stuff. heard of others with similer issues.
[01:53] <nathan__> there's two main steps to configure xp+vista to share files completely perfectly with no log in necessary
[01:53] <Pelo> mikefoo, did you install the x86 of the amd64 ?
[01:53] <nathan__> the issue is you are nto doing it correctly =/
[01:53] <dr_Willis> then again it may also depend on which version of xp or vista ya got.
[01:53] <vlt> Hello. I try to umount a fs but get "device is busy" even after `sync`. `lsof | grep mnt` is empty, `fuser -m /mnt` too. What's going on here?
[01:53] <nickrud> endo4977, the part about the directory the file is in not being on the path still holds; try   echo $PATH in a terminal
[01:53] <josephinenerdgir> hey guys i need help getting a usb device to register
[01:53] <Curs0r> Pelo, http://rafb.net/p/mDWLJ784.html
[01:53] <Pelo> vlt,  what device ?
[01:53] <ddonky> anyone try google desktop?
[01:54] <nickrud> endo4977, I think that's what you meant ;)
[01:54] <Pelo> Curs0r, hold on
[01:54] <adamorjames> where is profile.local?
[01:54] <dr_Willis> ddonky,  i like picassa but thats about it. :)
[01:54] <mikeh0209> ddonky, it is a memory hogg
[01:54] <Pelo> Curs0r,  that is so wrong
[01:54] <vlt> Pelo: A hdd partition
[01:54] <endo4977> right, the directory is not in my path.  So i am using ./    I also added ./ to my path variable
[01:54] <Curs0r> Pelo, just following the tutorial I was given
[01:54] <lindar> I can't unmount my hard drive. It's saying mount disagrees with FSTAB.
[01:54] <Hadron> Curs0r: did you read the cron man page?
[01:54] <alexin> would anyone happen to know why I cant delete my trash? it saying i dont't have have permissions to modify parent folder.  how does something i put on my desktop not have permission.. . im stumped (and new to ubuntu)
[01:54] <Hadron> install and run gnome.schedule
[01:55] <vlt> Pelo: /dev/hdb1 on /mnt type reiserfs (rw)
[01:55] <Esteth> ddonky: If you just want search, check out beagle
[01:55] <riaal_> what is "microsoft-ds" and why is it on my netstat?
[01:55] <Hadron> gone-schedule
[01:55] <dr_Willis> alexin,  'put on my desktop' means what exactly?
[01:55] <Hadron> gah!!!!! gnome-schedule
[01:55] <clockwork_> Hey all
[01:55] <alexin> 3 folders i extracted from package files ive downloaded
[01:55] <Esteth> lindar: ntfs-3g has that drawback as far as i know. as long as you have write access, your hard drive is perma-mounted. I have the same "problem", only i see auto-mounting as a feature
[01:55] <vlt> Pelo: I alwys get "umount: /mnt: device is busy"
[01:55] <Curs0r> Comma-seperated values can be used to run more than one instance of a particular command within a time period. Dash-seperated values can be used to run a command continuously. Code:
[01:55] <alexin> and attempted to install
[01:55] <Pelo> Curs0r,  try this one  01 * * * * bgprep compiz ,  make 4 instances and change 01 for 15, 30, 45
[01:56] <riaal_> can I display who is loged in to my ssh ?
[01:56] <mikeh0209> if i am using the linux 2.6.20-16-generic kernel and i took my hdd out of my intel p3 dual processor machine and put it in my amd 1.6ghz machine, would it boot and run
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> alexin: what are you trying to install?
[01:56] <Pelo> vlt,  check to make sure there are no  programs trying to access it,
[01:56] <alexin> i was trying to install ntfs-eg
[01:56] <alexin> 3g and a few other things
[01:56] <Hadron> Curs0r: */5 * * * *	/home/hadron/bin/getmails
[01:56] <vlt> fuser and lsof don't return anything
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> alexin: aren't those in the repos?
[01:56] <alexin> then tried the built in installer on ubuntu.. somewhat works
[01:56] <endo4977> nickrud: do you know what i mean?
[01:56] <Hadron> means every 5 minutes run getmails
[01:56] <vlt> Pelo: fuser and lsof don't return anything
[01:56] <Pelo> !enter | alexin
[01:56] <ubotu> alexin: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:56] <Hadron> (crontab -e)
[01:57] <nickrud> endo4977, I thought so. But describe again
[01:57] <Hadron> be aware that user cron and root cron are different I think.
[01:57] <Esteth> alexin: try "gksudo nautilus ~/.Trash" at terminal, then delete everything there.
[01:57] <vlt> Pelo: What else to check?
[01:57] <alexin> oh sorry
[01:57] <lindar> Esteth: I haven't added write access to it. I still have to umount it so I can do that.
[01:57] <Pelo> vlt,  the only other solution I have is to restart and unmount it then
[01:57] <riaal_> please? can I see who is using my SSH?
[01:57] <vlt> Pelo: restart what?
[01:57] <Pelo> vlt,  restart the comp
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> !ntfs | alexin
[01:57] <ubotu> alexin: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[01:58] <Esteth> lindar: save everything you have up, and ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X. that'll bring you back to login screen, close everything, and should unmount aswell
[01:58] <alexin> "!ntfs | alexin" ? what do u mean by that
[01:58] <vlt> Pelo: The computer? A linux box?
[01:58] <doug_> how do you rip a dvd in ubuntu?
[01:58] <Hadron> riaal_: firestarter is a good start on top of your ssh log
[01:58] <wctraxler> hello
[01:58] <nickrud> riaal_, irrc, who shows who's logged in; can't remember off hand if it says anything about ssh
[01:58] <vlt> doug_: dvdrip
[01:58] <endo4977> nickrud.  i have an executable called 'foo' in some directory not in my path.  I 'cd' to that directory and run './foo'.  I get the error "no such file or directory".  I can see it listed when i run 'ls', i can also 'touch' it.  And i have the proper permissions
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> acidrip is good to.
[01:58] <doug_> thnks vlt
[01:58] <vlt> doug_: libdvdcss2
[01:58] <Pelo> vlt, this is the only way I know of makink sure that no proccess are using the hdd you want to unmount
[01:58] <alexin> oh also, i dont know if anyone was talking about it earlier. but i cant seem to unmount my ntfs partition now, i can do a sudo umount ..  but once ubuntu restarts its mounted again
[01:58] <ironmata1> where do i use this command  rm -rf ~/.wine  terminal dident show the packaged uninstalling
[01:58] <nickrud> endo4977, is it executable? chmod u+x <file>
[01:58] <Hadron> endo4977: be sure. chmod 755 ./filename
[01:59] <SeveredCross> Anyone use Konverter?
[01:59] <wctraxler> #network manger
[01:59] <Grungebunny> indygunfreak you know acidrip pretty well? I get errors when I try to run it.
[01:59] <doug_> thnks vlt and IndygunFreak vlt i got that plug in alrdy thnks
[01:59] <wctraxler> #network manager
[01:59] <mikeh0209> what is the advantage of the generic kernel over the k7 or 686 kernel
[01:59] <Pelo> ironmata1,  that doesn''T remove wine that just deletes the .wine folder ,  to remove wine  sudo apt-get remove wine
[01:59] <endo4977> it is 755
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> Grungebunny: i wouldn't say i know it pretty well, i've just never had a problem with it.
[02:00] <Fezzler> I need to "make" an executable file called ./dl  in the subdirectory for the program their is a makefile and GNUmakefile?
[02:00] <vlt> !generic | mikeh0209
[02:00] <ubotu> mikeh0209: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[02:00] <josephinenerdgir> so i get this from my kernl any idea what it means ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[02:00] <Pelo> Fezzler,   sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:00] <Fezzler> I normally would just enter "make dl"
[02:00] <Fezzler> Pelo: what is that?
[02:00] <nickrud> endo4977, if it's owned by you, has 755 permissions, and you use ./ to run it, no clue
[02:01] <endo4977> :(
[02:01] <bluebanana> how can i find out what video card I have in my computer?
[02:01] <Curs0r> Pelo, yeah, that does not work either
[02:01] <Pelo> Fezzler,  the packages required to  compile from source
[02:01] <bluebanana> ... without having to open up my computer?
[02:01] <alexin> thanks Esteth: the gksudo worked
[02:01] <vlt> bluebanana: lspci
[02:01] <Pelo> Curs0r,  the problem is probably your command at this point,  what is the script you need to start ?
[02:01] <Fezzler> Pelo: What is the benefit of that over just running make
[02:01] <Curs0r> a script called bgprep
[02:01] <Pelo> josephinenerdgir,  that's a blank  pastebin
[02:01] <wctraxler> I NEED HELP on network manger i do i download the update and how do you install it in termanal
[02:01] <naes> Is there any good mouse recording programs I could use in Ubuntu?
[02:02] <bluebanana> vlt, thanks. which line in lspci tells me about my video card?
[02:02] <Pelo> Fezzler,  you need build-essential to run make
[02:02] <bluebanana> vlt, VGA compatible controller?
[02:02] <Curs0r> Pelo, the script runs fine, I have it set to  button now
[02:02] <bluebanana> vlt, Display controller? Something else?
[02:02] <Pelo> wctraxler, what's the file ending ?
[02:02] <vlt> bluebanana: I think that's the closest one ;-)
[02:02] <josephinenerdgir> pelo: try this one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35076/
[02:02] <Fezzler> Pelo: I must have it because I can run make.  What is the purpose of the makefile file or GNUmakefile file?
[02:03] <nickrud> wctraxler, that question is a bit odd; what do you mean 'download the update' ?
[02:03] <bucksf> hi all - has anyone gotten an error "xserver-xorg-video-all ... newline missing" when auto-updating the kdelibs-data and kdelibs4c2a packages?
[02:03] <Pelo> Curs0r,  I'm not saying that the script is the problem , I'm stayin the command in crontab is not the right one to start the script
[02:03] <bluebanana> vlt, oh, i just noticed VGA compatible controller AND Display controller have the same information.
[02:03] <bluebanana> vlt, thanks
[02:03] <Administrador> Hi dudes I need urgent help :/ How can I uninstall ubuntu from a MacBook?
[02:03] <Fezzler> Pelo: I have compiled the dl program by just running make dl
[02:03] <alexin> best way honestly (not to sound arrogant) would be just to look at it. to be 100% sure.  to find out what graphics adapter.. or lookup your motherboard.  perhaps there's a wcpuid program for linux
[02:03] <Pelo> Administrador,  just wipe the parttiion clean and  restore the mbr
[02:03] <Esteth> wctraxler: sudo apt-get update network-manager should update and install for you.
[02:03] <vlt> bluebanana: There's a package called "hwinfo" that tells you more details if available
[02:03] <naes> Are there any good mouse recording programs I could use in Ubuntu?
[02:04] <Myname849> bryan
[02:04] <Esteth> naes: what do you mean by "mouse recording" ?
[02:04] <Administrador> Pelo, The MacBook doesn't not have mbr dude,  mean it doesn't work, it has another type of mbr
[02:04] <josephinenerdgir> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35076/
[02:04] <naes> A program that records my mouse movements, so I can save them and run them
[02:04] <wctraxler> well there is a new update for network manager
[02:04] <bucksf> hi all - has anyone gotten an error "xserver-xorg-video-all ... newline missing" when auto-updating the kdelibs-data and kdelibs4c2a packages?
[02:04] <Pelo> Fezzler,   you seem to know more about this then I do ,  cause from what I know "make" is in the build-essential package , which you need to install if you want to make anything
[02:04] <Administrador> I tried to erase the partitions from the mbr, but Ubuntu is still there and booting using Refit
[02:04] <Fezzler> Pelo: The program "./dl ttyUSB0" connects my Tandy Model 100 to my Ubuntu PC via USB-to-Serial port.

[02:05] <bluebanana> vlt,  thanks
[02:05] <nickrud> wctraxler, from ubuntu or somewhere else?
[02:05] <Myname849> any body of u is a staff of this server freenode??

[02:05] <mikeh0209> would a system installed on an intel p3 dual processor machine boot on an amd motherboard
[02:05] <Pelo> josephinenerdgir,  looks to me that your computer found a new usb device tries to mounti ti finds an error , there mounts it again as something else so you can use it ,  you can probably searuch for the error msg in the forum for mor info
[02:05] <wctraxler> were can i get it i deelted it all
[02:06] <Fezzler> Pelo: It seems to be working erratically.  I was wondering if I compiled wrong and the purpose of a makefile vs GNUmakefile
[02:06] <Myname849> any body of u is a staff of this server freenode??
[02:06] <nickrud> wctraxler, if it came as a tar.gz or something, you'd need to compile it. Not generally a good idea
[02:06] <Pelo> Fezzler,   sudo ./dl ttyUSB0 THEN
[02:06] <vlt> Esteth: Ever seen Star Trek IV(?) and the scene where Scotty(?) uses the 1980'S mouse to speak commands to the computer?
[02:06] <Esteth> wctraxler: If it's not in the repos, it must be a recent update. Unless there's new functionality you really need, it's wise to stick with the normal version
[02:06] <Fezzler> Cool Pelo
[02:06] <Pelo> Fezzler,  sorry this is clearly over my head
[02:06] <wctraxler> ok so i should be able too get it in sudo
[02:06] <vlt> Esteth: Maybe there's a program to record ...
[02:07] <wctraxler> wanted too update too the 6.s
[02:07] <Stanislav25sf> irc,zonebg.com
[02:07] <wctraxler> 6.5
[02:07] <Esteth> vlt: like "mouse gestures" ? I've not seen star trek. Or do you mean recording and playing back mouse movements?
[02:07] <wctraxler> i have the 6.4
[02:07] <nickrud> wctraxler, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[02:07] <MaxL> how do I install a .bin file?
[02:07] <vlt> Esteth: I was not the one who asked. Just kidding about your question ...
[02:08] <mikeh0209> my p3 machine is failing and i do not want to reinstall so can i just move my hdd to a different machine and boot up?
[02:08] <nickrud> wctraxler, you'll need to wait for gutsy to come out to get .6.5
[02:08] <wctraxler> 7.04
[02:08] <MaxL> HOw Do I install a bin file????????
[02:08] <Esteth> vlt: Ohh, sorry, it's late here, so i'm kinda dim atm :P
[02:08] <Pelo> MaxL,   put the bin file on your desktp, open a terminal ,   cd Desktop      sudo chmod 777 filename.bin         sudo ./filename.bin
[02:08] <Peppery> Hi. How would I add a user to write to /var/www so I can modify my site without being admin?
[02:08] <Pelo> MaxL,  patience
[02:08] <nickrud> MaxL, generally chmod u+x <file> && ./<binfile>, but what's the bin file?
[02:08] <Myname849> any body of u is a staff of this server freenode??
[02:08] <MaxL> thanks
[02:08] <MaxL> bye
[02:09] <Fezzler> does anyone know the purpose of a "makefile"
[02:09] <vlt> Esteth: You are still one hour behind me ;-)
[02:09] <Pelo> Myname849,   you better ask in #freenode
[02:09] <nickrud> Fezzler, it describes how to compile and link and install and uninstall software
[02:09] <munken> ,
[02:09] <Esteth> Fezzler: It's used for "make" commands, for compiling programs and installing from source
[02:09] <Pelo> Fezzler,   google it
[02:09] <flemnos> Fezzler, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_%28software%29

[02:10] <Myname849> aaok
[02:10] <Fezzler> Pelo: Of course Google it.  :)  Couldn't that be said for every question here?  Sometime plain language advice is better.

[02:12] <SystemOverload> Hello everyone.
[02:12] <terapicodave> Peppery: you'll want to use groups
[02:12] <Ashfire908> hey i got a problem with a computer. every time i startup, i get some error about NOT_SHUTDOWN and then when i run "sudo shutdown -hP now", it halts the system, and then (i assume) it tried to shutdown, but i end up having to hit the powerbutton
[02:12] <Peppery> Tech3030: How would I do that?
[02:12] <wctraxler> http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.6/
[02:12] <Pelo> Administrador,  if no one here can provide any help , try looking it up in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:12] <Administrador> ok Pelo, thanks anyway.
[02:12] <wctraxler> http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.6/
[02:12] <nickrud> wctraxler, yes, that's something you'd need to compile.
[02:12] <SystemOverload> My USB headset, in the sound options, the volume control is called PCM, and the volume control does not work from the task bar.
[02:13] <SystemOverload> Hey Pelo.
[02:13] <SystemOverload> :D
[02:13] <terapicodave> Peppery: set the group of the dir to something like designers
[02:13] <wctraxler> ok got too go check dinner will be back
[02:13] <terapicodave> then add users to that group that need that level of access
[02:13] <z0rz> What's the compiz-fusion chanel?
[02:13] <Pici> wctraxler: Why are you compiling network-manager? Its in the repos.
[02:13] <Pelo> Ashfire908,  try searching for he exact error msg in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:13] <choudesh> hey all..
[02:13] <terapicodave> I think you'll want to read a bit about groups
[02:13] <Pelo> z0rz,  #compiz-fusion
[02:13] <Peppery> terapicodave: Is there a tutorial or wiki or something?
[02:13] <Pici> z0rz: #ubuntu-effects or #compizfusion
[02:13] <z0rz> nevermind.. answered my own question :D
[02:14] <terapicodave> Peppery: I'm sure there is...google is your friend
[02:14] <z0rz> I just enabled compiz fusion with compiz --replace and now I have no window title bars
[02:14] <choudesh> I am trying to install Ubuntu via USB thumb drive and it seems that it isn't flagging the installation HD as bootable. Any suggestions?
[02:14] <SystemOverload> My volume control does not work if I use the little pop up menu or the keys on my keyboard or on the headset
[02:14] <Zambezi> If I have a shell and only one bg process is allowed, is it possible to have psybnc with five different networks or do I need five different psybnc?
[02:14] <Pelo> z0rz,  ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:14] <SystemOverload> I get the volume up and down image, but it does not affect it.
[02:15] <SystemOverload> The only thing that affects my volume is by going into the control panel and raising/lowering the PCM level
[02:15] <Pelo> SystemOverload,  dbl click on the volume icons and make sure  PCM is up and all the others also
[02:15] <nickrud> SystemOverload, change the device controlled by the volume control; right click the speaker and select preferences
[02:16] <terapicodave> choudesh: I tried that to....a Pxe netboot worked for me
[02:16] <Pelo> SystemOverload,  you can set the pcm level to be the one show in the volume icon
[02:16] <Peppery> terapicodave: anywhere in particular? :p

[02:19] <nickrud> wctraxler, you'd need to compile it; me, I'm comfortable doing compiliation but I don't think I'd just willy nilly change that one
[02:19] <Pelo> FFForever, that was all I had to contribute to your situation ,
[02:19] <SystemOverload> Moneycracks, I agree :D. Dr_Willis, I have it working in Wine, but I am gonna give it a go in cedega

[02:22] <emeriste> I extracted the source.tar.  Then I did ./configure and installed the missing dependencies. I ran ./configure again and it asks for nothing. Then I typed make.  And it gave errors.
[02:22] <Pelo> Actionman,  trhere is already one in th e internet menu, or there should be,   but just delete from the desktop and use  mkenu > sytem > prefs > main menu to put one in the menu

[02:22] <Monkeycracks> Uh oh
[02:22] <Monkeycracks> I get the feeling my drivers aren't working properly
[02:22] <SystemOverload> Could someone please help me use steam with cedega?
[02:22] <J-Wreck> woah, pretty sweet upgrdman
[02:22] <upgrdman> :)
[02:22] <wctraxler> i didn't yet just downloaded it but tryed too install it don't know how
[02:23] <Monkeycracks> planetpenguin racer's text is seemingly a bunch of -'s and _'s
[02:23] <dr_Willis> SystemOverload,  id have to suggest the cedega forums for that.
[02:23] <J-Wreck> SystemOverload, you have the exe not msi, correct?
[02:23] <nickrud> wctraxler, you'd need to compile it; me, I'm comfortable doing compiliation but I don't think I'd just willy nilly change that one
[02:23] <SystemOverload> MSI, but it installed fine.
[02:23] <Pelo> SystemOverload,  look for a cedega channel
[02:23] <beefalicious> Anyone have a solution for using a g15 keyboard and grub not allowing you to make choices when it is choosing your O/S?
[02:23] <SystemOverload> Thanks Pelo, and J-Wreck, and dr_Willis
[02:23] <nickrud> wctraxler, it's related to too many other things that might need to be recompiled to match.
[02:23] <Esteth> SystemOverload: There's a page at winehq's appdb about steam and how to get it working
[02:23] <dr_Willis> beefalicious,  i have issues with ANY usb keybord and GRUB on 2 of my machines.
[02:23] <SystemOverload> I had steam lockup at the top of my screen as a little icon next to my volume control using wine, and I don't know how to close it :(
[02:23] <Pelo> beefalicious, what do you mean not alloing you to chose your os ?
[02:23] <Monkeycracks> !ati
[02:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:23] <J-Wreck> Esteth, he's using cedega not wine
[02:23] <wctraxler> so how would ya do it i confused tryed and tryed too install in termanl but still no luck
[02:24] <Actionman> ok
[02:24] <J-Wreck> when i tried steam in wine it didn't work too well
[02:24] <J-Wreck> cedega > wine
[02:24] <dr_Willis> beefalicious,  i have to use ps2 keyboards on them. I hear that the 'legacy usb support' in the bios canhelp.. but id dident help me at all.
[02:24] <wctraxler> if not in romaning mode i can not get it too have ipaddress and stuff
[02:24] <beefalicious> I'll try legacy and see how it works out
[02:24] <emeriste> EditTabs.hh:30:20: error: aspell.h: No such file or directory
[02:24] <SystemOverload> J-Wreck, I see what you mean, its like stuck at the top and I don't know how to end it lol.
[02:24] <wctraxler> ok
[02:24] <dr_Willis> beefalicious,  with that setting, linux and windows both failed to boot for me.
[02:24] <Pelo> later folks
[02:24] <beefalicious> Thanks for the info Willis, if anything I'll get an old ps/2 board for just that reason
[02:24] <beefalicious> Well At least I can try
[02:25] <J-Wreck> SystemOverload, you could try 'pkill steam.exe'
[02:25] <dr_Willis> beefalicious,  i got a G15 and a PS2 keyboard both on this pc right now. :)
[02:25] <beefalicious> Sounds like the right solution then.
[02:25] <SystemOverload> Nope, did not work :(
[02:25] <b0wlman> how can i emulate OS-X Dock plugin on my desktop, w/o beryl or xgl/compiz
[02:25] <beefalicious> As any good linux user would I've got at least 6 spare keyboards around the house :D
[02:25] <J-Wreck> open up system-monitor
[02:25] <J-Wreck> look through the tasks
[02:25] <Esteth> J-Wreck: I'm running steam in wine exactly as it runs in windows :) with the tray icon, the store works, i can launch the games, and HL2 based games work near-perfectly, albeit they take a few minuites to start
[02:25] <choudesh> terapicodave, What is wrong with the USB install?
[02:25] <dr_Willis> beefalicious,  also ive see it depends on some MB's on WHICH usb port the keyboard is in
[02:25] <J-Wreck> dang, Esteth, some people get all the luck
[02:25] <wctraxler> so how do you compile
[02:25] <kaveh> hi all
[02:26] <SystemOverload> Esteth, same, but mine is locked up :D
[02:26] <beefalicious> I'll try that before I throw a second keyboard up
[02:26] <wctraxler> i extracted it too desktop
[02:26] <terapicodave> choudesh: maybe nothing for you, but i also could not get my computer to boot from usb(even though I followed some online directions)
[02:26] <SystemOverload> Ubuntu reboots so outrageously fast I might as well restart.
[02:26] <Monkeycracks> lol
[02:26] <Monkeycracks> i love ubuntu
[02:26] <Monkeycracks> minus it's seeming hatred for my video card
[02:26] <dr_Willis> Wy dont you marry it. :)
[02:26] <choudesh> terapicodave, well - I can get it to install FROM usb - but my issue is that it seems that it doesn't flag the HD as bootable or install grub
[02:26] <kkerwin> Hi, not sure where else to ask this but here: how does 802.11g compare to the other wireless bands in terms of speed? On a cable connection, would a gamer notice a speed hit by running wireless over 802.11g?
[02:26] <Esteth> SystemOverload: If you just want to kill everything, just ctrl-alt-backspace
[02:26] <SystemOverload> When I was using Windows it took so long to start up I would avoid restarting for days on end
[02:26] <kkerwin> That is, versus running a hardwire.
[02:26] <dr_Willis> kkathman,  you mean 'n' vs 'g' ?
[02:26] <SystemOverload> Thanks Esteth, going to try that now
[02:27] <Monkeycracks> lol
[02:27] <dr_Willis> wired is faster then G.
[02:27] <Monkeycracks> i could go weeks without rebooting
[02:27] <J-Wreck> SystemOverload, you know Windows can do warm restarts to restart much faster
[02:27] <nickrud> wctraxler, tar xf <file> && cd <new directory just made> && ./configure then figure out what dependencies need to be installed then ./configure && repeat the dependency thing && make && figure out why it didn't compile && sudo make install
[02:27] <kaveh> i can not install my lexmark printer
[02:27] <J-Wreck> most people don't know that
[02:27] <dr_Willis> i hear N is very much an improvement over G. if ya can get it working right.
[02:27] <cafuego> dr_Willis: 10baseT isn't.
[02:27] <terapicodave> choudesh: so you've installed to the HD but the HD is not bootable
[02:27] <Esteth> J-Wreck: I didn't know that. How's it done?
[02:27] <choudesh> terapicodave, yep.
[02:27] <dr_Willis> cafuego,  perhaps hes on a token ring network! :) perhaps hes sending smoke signals!
[02:27] <kkerwin> dr_Willis: With a cable connection, what would be the bottleneck: the wireless connection, or the cable service itself?
[02:27] <choudesh> terapicodave, but since my cdrom drive is broke on my laptop I am fresh out of ideas
[02:28] <J-Wreck> Esteth: its been a while, but its holding either shift or control when you hit "reboot"
[02:28] <dr_Willis> cafuego,  We are showing our age bu even knowing about 10baset
[02:28] <J-Wreck> Esteth: or something like that
[02:28] <cafuego> dr_Willis: Hmpf. I fail to see how smoke signals are "wired"! Though you encode quite a lot of data in the fractal edges of the clouds eh ;-)
[02:28] <dr_Willis> kkerwin,  for my isp. the cable modem is the bottleneck. its like 100speed .
[02:28] <dr_Willis> kkerwin,  i got gigabit on the wired. so the isp IS my bottle neck.
[02:28] <max__> anyone in heer play planeshift?
[02:28] <terapicodave> choudesh: if you had another computer handy and a network i'd recommend trying pxe but to go further down this road maybe you can boot to the usb again and run parted?
[02:29] <dr_Willis> dont make me get out my null modem cable!
[02:29] <Monkeycracks> sigh
[02:29] <Monkeycracks> hm
[02:29] <max__> I can't play planeshift everytime I Click the icon it wont let me play
[02:29] <kkerwin> dr_Willis: What is the standar speed on a cable modem? And average?
[02:29] <dr_Willis> max__,  run it from a terminal.. look for error messages
[02:29] <astro76> kkerwin, unless your cable connection is over 8MBps your cable connection will be the bottleneck
[02:29] <max__> how I run it from terminal?
[02:29] <dr_Willis> kkerwin,  no idea. i get about 400k/s tops. i hear it can go faster.. :)
[02:29] <dr_Willis> max__,  type the name of the command.
[02:29] <terapicodave> choudesh: you have windows on this box as well?
[02:30] <kkerwin> dr_Willis: Ok. Thanks. I'll run some speed tests here.
[02:30] <choudesh> terapicodave, nope.
[02:30] <max__> Im not quite sure what the name of the command to play the game is
[02:30] <astro76> kkerwin, typical cable modem connection is average around 6 MBps down and 384 kbps or so
[02:30] <dr_Willis> max__,  just a GUESS.. i would say 'planeshift' :)
[02:30] <cafuego> The laptop hdd is the bottleneck here.
[02:30] <max__> I tried PlaneShift and ps and psclient
[02:30] <Esteth> J-Wreck: Cool, i'll have to try that when i need windows for a bioshock fix.
[02:30] <FFForever> i am downloading tribe 5 and i was wondering what is new from 7.04?
[02:30] <J-Wreck> Esteth,  you got bioshock?
[02:30] <kkerwin> Thanks for all the help, guys!
[02:30] <J-Wreck> lucky dog
[02:30] <Iam4Him2> my laptop freezes on shutdown can some one help please
[02:30] <dr_Willis> cafuego,  if you isntalled it from synaptic.. fire up synaptic and check the package details.
[02:31] <cafuego> dr_Willis: No, I won't,.
[02:31] <Esteth> J-Wreck: hehe. Ran out and bought it today :)
[02:31] <terapicodave> choudesh: well during the installer it gives you the option to do some manual partitioning, can you set the partition bootable during that?
[02:31] <Monkeycracks> With a Radeon9250, should I be doing this : sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[02:31] <cafuego> Monkeycracks: No.
[02:31] <choudesh> terapicodave, that is what I am going to do. thanks.
[02:31] <Monkeycracks> uh oh
[02:31] <flemnos> max__, try /opt/PlaneShift/psclient
[02:31] <cafuego> Monkeycracks: A 9250 is fully supported by the free/open `radeon' driver in X.
[02:31] <Idfy> Ok, this is a compiz question. Just used the CF installer script to install 0.5.2 compiz fusion. Everything went fine. fusion-icon works perfectly and all. However, when I start ccsm from terminal I get errors (compiz settings)
[02:31] <Idfy> #ubuntu-effects
[02:31] <Monkeycracks> how should i undo that command then?
[02:31] <wctraxler> lost ya
[02:31] <Monkeycracks> and 3d games don't seem to work for me
[02:31] <Idfy> http://rafb.net/p/6HdIm361.html
[02:31] <dr_Willis> !ati
[02:31] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:31] <Idfy> those are the errors ^
[02:32] <Monkeycracks> dr_willis, that's what i was following ;)
[02:32] <cafuego> Monkeycracks: You don't have to undo it, just don't enable the fglrx driver.
[02:32] <J-Wreck> anyone have compiz 0.5.5 working?
[02:32] <dr_Willis> Monkeycracks,  read them again. :) you are installing the wrong driver for the 3d support
[02:32] <J-Wreck> i think the packages are bad
[02:32] <Esteth> max: cd to the directory planetside is in. somewhere under ~/.wine/drive_c/ then type wine <name of exe file>
[02:32] <wctraxler> ok if down load networkmanager 0.6.5 how do i install it?help
[02:32] <nickrud> Monkeycracks, and apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx is the command you are looking for
[02:32] <dr_Willis> I tend to just run 'restricted-manager' these days to get my cards going
[02:32] <max__> flemnos,  max@trogdor:/$ /opt/Planeshift/psclient
[02:32] <max__> bash: /opt/Planeshift/psclient: No such file or directory
[02:32] <vlt> Hello. I got a strange NFS (Feisty <-> Feisty) problem. On the server I export /home/vlt, on the client I mount it on /mnt/vlt. I can access all files and directories there. Only one directory is empty which has lots of files in it on the server's /home/vlt (which is a mount from a different source). Any idea why and how to solve it?
[02:33] <cafuego> dr_Willis: He doesn't need or want fglrx for a 9250.
[02:33] <dr_Willis> max__,  look in the direcoties.. you maybe doing a typo
[02:33] <cafuego> dr_Willis: They're fully supported, he's probably just missing a lib or extension in X.
[02:33] <flemnos> max__, sorry, then.  It seemed like that's where it put it by default for me.
[02:33] <dr_Willis> cafuego,   :) Oh the humanity! :)
[02:33] <dr_Willis> cafuego,  thats a rare ati card then eh?
[02:33] <SystemOverload> Thanks, that worked lol.
[02:33] <mattg> can somebody help me with installing vmware?  i have the files, but when I try "sudo vmware-install.pl", it doesn't let me
[02:33] <cafuego> dr_Willis: No, just oldish.
[02:33] <Grungebunny> what is this X everyone speaks of?
[02:33] <max__> Flemnos, it's there but look max@trogdor:/opt$ cd PlaneShift
[02:33] <max__> bash: cd: PlaneShift: Permission denied
[02:34] <cafuego> Grungebunny: xserver-xorg
[02:34] <J-Wreck> mattg: you could just use VirtualBox
[02:34] <J-Wreck> personally, I like it more
[02:34] <Esteth> max__ put "sudo " in front of the command
[02:34] <nickrud> lol
[02:34] <dr_Willis> I perfer vmware to virtual box. :) it works better for my 'needs'
[02:34] <cafuego> You may know it as "x windows", which is not what it's called ;-)
[02:34] <mattg> j-wreck:  i would, but dont know how to install it.  can u help me with that?  i was using it on Sabayon Linux 3.4e, came with it
[02:34] <vlt> When the client creates files in that directory I can't see them on the server. I need to unmount the device from that mountpoint on the server to let the just created files appear.
[02:34] <J-Wreck> ok
[02:34] <max__> Esteth, max@trogdor:/opt$ sudo cd PlaneShift
[02:34] <max__> sudo: cd: command not found
[02:34] <J-Wreck> 'sudo apt-get install virtualbox'
[02:34] <J-Wreck> that easy =P
[02:35] <doug__> why does firefox not have any sound when i go to videos
[02:35] <Curs0r>  gnome-scheduler doesn't do it either
[02:35] <nickrud> max__, ls Planeshift -d ; paste the one line here
[02:35] <Monkeycracks> wow
[02:35] <Monkeycracks> apparently my computer decided to reboot
[02:35] <mattg> not for me, j-wreck, "E: Couldn't find package virtualbox"
[02:35] <J-Wreck> mattg: odd
[02:35] <terapicodave> doug__: i had that problem once upon a time...don't know why though...i wonder if there is a flash log
[02:35] <dr_Willis> J-Wreck,  some how i got vmeare-server in my repos. :)  may be a Mint Linux thing.
[02:35] <max__> nickrud, pardon?
[02:36] <J-Wreck> dr_Willis, I have them in my repos too
[02:36] <nickrud> max__, that will show the permissions on that directory
[02:36] <pike_> dr_Willis: convenient
[02:36] <vlt> Any idea why the client sees the empty folder and not the mounted contents?
[02:36] <terapicodave> doug__: does this happen only with flash videos or any kind of videos?
[02:36] <dr_Willis> pike_,  i thought so. :)
[02:36] <J-Wreck> I have all kinds of nice things in my repos =)
[02:36] <mattg> j-wreck: what version are you running?  i have feisty
[02:36] <Esteth> nickrud: Normally when i get problems with permissions, sticking sudo in front of what i was doing makes it work
[02:36] <doug__> any kind terapicodave
[02:36] <J-Wreck> i installed it when i was using feisty
[02:36] <gunnar> Any ideas why my Audigy is not working?  I have tried 'aplay -l' and it shows up there.  I have made sure that the Audigy is selected from the Audio Control.  Still no sound.
[02:36] <terapicodave> doug__: and your mixer doesn't have anything at 0 volume?
[02:36] <J-Wreck> but currently i'm using gutsy
[02:36] <nickrud> Esteth, except for cd. Don't work.
[02:36] <doug__> and for somereason i cant get files sent through pidgin  also
[02:37] <doug__> nope terapicodave
[02:37] <J-Wreck> mattg: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualbox_ubuntu
[02:37] <nickrud> Esteth, a few other things as well.
[02:37] <Esteth> nickrud: oh :(
[02:37] <max__> For some reason Planeshift wont let me use it
[02:37] <max__> maybe I should just reinstall?
[02:37] <mattg> j-wreck: are you using tribe 3 test release?
[02:38] <Iam4Him2> my laptop freezes on shutdown can some one help please
[02:38] <nickrud> max__, if you could paste that one line , ls -ld /opt/Planeshift
[02:38] <flemnos> max__, try "sudo adduser <your account> games"
[02:38] <Grungebunny> Iam4him2 we went over that earlier.. its a bug you gotta deal with till next upgrade
[02:38] <J-Wreck> mattg: i just updated from feisty, so its not one of the release cds
[02:38] <Monkeycracks> how can I disable the fglrx
[02:38] <Monkeycracks> certain command to disable the package?
[02:38] <max__> flemnos, didn't work
[02:38] <J-Wreck> mattg: anyway, did you try that link?
[02:39] <nickrud> Monkeycracks, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, replace fglrx with ati
[02:39] <mattg> j-wreck:  trying it now
[02:39] <flemnos> max__, then do what nickrud was saying
[02:39] <max__> nickrud, drwxrwx--- 9 root games 4096 2007-08-25 20:17 /opt/PlaneShift
[02:39] <gustavol1> hi, I've encoded a xvid movie to mpeg2. I'd like to record it to DVD and watch it on a dvd player... can I record it with k3b? how?
[02:39] <Iam4Him2> Thanks Grungebunny
[02:39] <nickrud> max__, based on that I'd say you can now ls /opt/PlaneShift
[02:40] <leifk> ##linux
[02:40] <J-Wreck> anyone here use superkaramba?
[02:40] <J-Wreck> is it just me, or is nearly everything system monitors?

[02:41] <max__> J-Wreck, max@trogdor:/opt$ sudo cd PlaneShift
[02:41] <max__> sudo: cd: command not found
[02:41] <Monkeycracks> sorry, having a hard time remembering these commands :P
[02:41] <flemnos> max__, "sudo adduser max games"
[02:41] <max__> already did it
[02:42] <nickrud> max__, then just cd PlaneShift
[02:42] <b0wlman> can someone help me on , unistalling my ati driver's so i can set them up again please

[02:49] <max__> Does Kopete keep logs???
[02:49] <Sinep> Monkeycracks, bug free programs do not exists I suppose :p
[02:49] <Monkeycracks> guess not
[02:49] <max__> @___@
[02:49] <Monkeycracks> eh
[02:49] <Monkeycracks> been toying with this for 2 days
[02:49] <emeriste> nickrud - i'll check that.
[02:49] <rafaelscj> what do you think the best, kismet, ethereal or tcpdump?
[02:49] <max__> Does kopete keep chat logs?
[02:49] <miotum> I wonder if ubuntu is so successful because of the friendly support, other communities just tell you rtfm
[02:49] <d4rkmonkey> Hey, is there a command to remove every hidden file in a directory? In my Music folder, theres a bunch of hidden files and I want to get rid of them. I know I have 1700 songs, but I have more than 1800 files in the folders...
[02:50] <Pici> rafaelscj: You really cant compare kismet to ethereal or tcpdumo.
[02:50] <Maxdamantus> d4rkmonkey, rm -rf .*
[02:50] <d4rkmonkey> Maxdamantus on thanks
[02:50] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: ls -a to see them all first.
[02:50] <J-Wreck> thats rather risky d4rkmonkey
[02:50] <J-Wreck> you sure you want them all gone?
[02:51] <max__> Does anybody know if Kopete keeps a log of all chats?
[02:51] <J-Wreck> theres nothing hidden in there thats important?
[02:51] <d4rkmonkey> J-Wreck, no its just music.
[02:51] <J-Wreck> max__: i think you have to enable it
[02:51] <rafaelscj> Pici, I am going to install kismet
[02:51] <d4rkmonkey> J-Wreck the hidden files are retarded, and I don't know why they're even there
[02:51] <max__> J-Wreck, Damnit X___X;
[02:51] <mattg> j-wreck:  do you wanna know how much trouble i have had trying to get a vm on here...GAHH!!!  you are my new best friend!

[02:52] <emeriste> wow nickrud that did something. But now it has found a different error.
[02:52] <Maxdamantus> !ask
[02:52] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:52] <wctraxler> if you know how send me e-mail to wctraxler@config.com
[02:52] <Monkeycracks> anyone know of some 3d application that i can test out
[02:52] <dr_Willis> miotum,  you should rtfm while talking in here. and waiting for reply. :)
[02:52] <Monkeycracks> i just need to see if this works -.-
[02:52] <RussellReal> I can't logon my computer
[02:52] <RussellReal> I can't get on
[02:52] <RussellReal> when it starts up I get an error
[02:52] <RussellReal> and it shuts back down
[02:52] <Maxdamantus> RussellReal, what is the error?
[02:52] <Manacit2> what's the error ruminator
[02:52] <J-Wreck> lol
[02:52] <d4rkmonkey> will "rm -rf Music/*/.*" (without quotes) remove all hidden files, in all folders in the Music directory?
[02:52] <Manacit2> RussellRealI mean
[02:52] <RussellReal> I don't know I havn't any time to read it
[02:53] <Manacit2> try taking a picture of it or something
[02:53] <RussellReal> how will I save it?
[02:53] <RussellReal> when it shuts down
[02:53] <Manacit2> with a camera silly
[02:53] <RussellReal> .
[02:53] <J-Wreck> max__: i suggest pidgin instead of kopete
[02:53] <RussellReal> any ideas?
[02:53] <emeriste> nickrud - somehow what you said did fix it but now it says this: error: keyfile_init is not a member of Glib
[02:53] <pike_> d4rkmonkey: might that also go up a directory? with *. = ..?
[02:53] <max__> J-Wreck, Why's that?
[02:53] <nickrud> emeriste, that one I don't recognize
[02:53] <J-Wreck> max__: better plugins
[02:54] <J-Wreck> the only thing i like about kopete is the way the actual IM windows look
[02:54] <yasper> i would like some help installing ubuntu please
[02:54] <Ashfire908> is it possible for a boot virus from one hard drive to jump to another, and embed itself to where making a new partition table will not stop it?
[02:54] <mattg> j-wreck:  1 last problem for now, I have a CD that I created that comes up when inserted, "Cannot mount volume.  Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the 'UDF Volume'".  Got a fix for that one?
[02:54] <d4rkmonkey> pike_ I'm not using any *. only .* to do any hidden files.
[02:54] <d4rkmonkey> I'm backing up my Music directory first incase I screw something up
[02:54] <CorpseFeeder> how do I upgrade to feisty kernel if "sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic" doesn't work?
[02:54] <dr_Willis> d4rkmonkey,  befor doing stuff like that  try the wildcards with 'echo whatever*' for example.. using 2 *'s is not a good idea i think
[02:54] <yasper> I am currently trying to set up a partition table and just need to clarify some details
[02:55] <Maxdamantus> yasper, continue..
[02:55] <Josnd> i am needing som assisnce wit mplayer
[02:55] <yasper> ok. I am getting rid of all MS and installing ubintu - build 7.04
[02:55] <Josnd> i cant get it to pla ymovie
[02:55] <Maxdamantus> Josnd, what happens?
[02:55] <J-Wreck> sorry mattg, i've never had that problem
[02:56] <Josnd> it won't playh movie
[02:56] <yasper> previously I had several partitions on 2 physical HDDs
[02:56] <J-Wreck> i'll see if i can look it up, though
[02:56] <mattg> ok j-wreck
[02:56] <Maxdamantus> What does it output?
[02:56] <Josnd> i am not nowing
[02:56] <Ashfire908> i'm getting the smae problem in ubuntu that a boot virus caused on a different hard drive on the same computer. any chance that the virus could be affecting ubuntu?
[02:56] <d4rkmonkey> Well, its going to need anymore * to do it.. I don't think i need -rf though, since its just removing normal hidden files, I'll do rm Music/*/*/.*

[02:57] <kruck> damn, that sucks
[02:57] <Monkeycracks> !ati
[02:57] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:57] <kruck> any good FPS games that work on linux natively?
[02:57] <emeriste> nickrud - It looks like this person has the exact same problem as me. I am also trying to compile amyedit -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=468783
[02:57] <Maxdamantus> Josnd, should be in the menu, then system, I think.

[02:57] <Monkeycracks> i can't even get my video card drivesr working
[02:57] <Monkeycracks> no games for me
[02:57] <Monkeycracks> =(
[02:57] <dr_Willis> d4rkmonkey,  id be VERY carefull with that sort of commands. :)
[02:57] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, do ls Music/*/*/.* first to test
[02:57] <rafaelscj> I didn't found 915resolution package.. what's happening?
[02:57] <yasper> my 'home' partition will be "/"
[02:57] <Ashfire908> yasper, how exactly do you want to partition it?
[02:57] <Maxdamantus> Jonbo, press alt + f2, and type "xterm", then press enter.
[02:57] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, or use rm -i
[02:58] <CorpseFeeder> what dos this mean? "Package linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic is not available, but is referred to by another package." - it's preventing me from installing that kernel....
[02:58] <d4rkmonkey> dr_Willis and astro76 yeah, I'm backing up my whole music directory first. astro76 what does rm -i do?
[02:58] <Maxdamantus> And in there, type "mplayer <file>" where <file> is a movie.
[02:58] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, asks for confirmation for every file
[02:58] <Ashfire908> yasper, / is root, not home
[02:58] <kruck> just how stable is WINE for playing games on?
[02:58] <yasper> do I have to specify all the other partitons or can I just install ubuntu then sort the rest of the partitions out after "like on windows"?

[02:59] <J-Wreck> mattgL fiesty isn't a kernel =P but if you found the fix, then i guess you're good
[02:59] <Manacit2> 3D games dont wory very well

[03:01] <Ashfire908> yasper, lvm allows more freedom when setting up partitions. it allows you to make a partiton span a hard drive and to resize in more ways
[03:01] <emeriste> i'll check.
[03:01] <cust> alguem aqui fala portugues?

[03:02] <cust> hello GestCocaCola do you speck brazilian?
[03:02] <yasper> ok - do i use lvm after install, yes?
[03:02] <dr_Willis> xp_prg,  removing a program from synaptic will NOT touch the users settings or data files in their home dirs
[03:02] <chalcedny> reportingsjr: tell the problem
[03:02] <Ashfire908> yasper, but if you are wanting to have one partiton for /home  another for / and another as swap, etc, than you don't need lvm
[03:02] <reportingsjr> chalcedny: I cant get it to work at all, I think one of the codecs is bad or something

[03:04] <GNine> !swap
[03:04] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[03:04] <GestCocaCola> people, please help me with english.. i want to say my program is only for who pay me... this is correct: "Sorry, this is only for our Custommers" ?
[03:04] <vexati0n> dr_Willis: i need to convert ogg to mpeg. avidemux won't open an ogg file.
[03:04] <dr_Willis> xjkx,  and its connecting.disconnecting.. odd... is the LINUX box the one connecting to the win98 machine? or visa-versa?

[03:06] <d4rkmonkey> I have aMSN starting up when I log in, but it seems to use the window list as the notification area when it starts at the beggining, and I have to use killall to get rid of it, when I start it up after that, it uses the notification area area like normal, I think it has something to do with the order in which things start, is there a way to make aMSN start absolutely last?

[03:08] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, I don't think you can specify order, but your tray should be up by that point
[03:09] <ironmata1> sigh
[03:09] <d4rkmonkey> astro76 yeah, its weird, especially since it works perfectly fine when I start it up on my own after

[03:20] <salah> Aishiko, yes
[03:20] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, not well. What hardware have you changed ?
[03:20] <Pici> Socrates_infoxp: Then you definitly need to ask in #freenode or ##windows for help about removing the open proxy.

[03:21] <Socrates_infoxp> na thanks whatever
[03:21] <Socrates_infoxp> :d
[03:21] <stunatra> 6.06 has long term support
[03:21] <astro76> Brian___, no 7.04 is much more up to date and supports more hardware, etc..
[03:21] <Socrates_infoxp> (Y)
[03:21] <Brian___> or was that ubuntu 7.04?
[03:21] <Socrates_infoxp> (F)
[03:21] <CorpseFeeder> what does this mean? "Package linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic is not available, but is referred to by another package."
[03:21] <terapicodave> salah: ifup, dhclient, iwconfig....ndiswrapper -l
[03:21] <stunatra> 7.04 is a newer distro.
[03:21] <KurtKraut> BrendanW, ubuntu 6.06 means that it was released in the year 2006 in the 6th month.
[03:21] <KurtKraut> oops
[03:21] <KurtKraut> Brian___,  ubuntu 6.06 means that it was released in the year 2006 in the 6th month.
[03:21] <pike_> twoshadetod: of course change the ssid after you turn off broadcasting
[03:21] <Aishiko> KurtKraut, removed a Linksys NIC and replaced with a SMC1244 NIC
[03:22] <pike_> CorpseFeeder: breakage
[03:22] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, it means your /etc/apt/sources.list is bad

[03:24] <wilson_Br_2007> miotun_lled libdvdcss, already.
[03:24] <Aishiko> robbomx yes
[03:24] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, run a livecd session... if they work, you should reinstall ubuntu
[03:24] <terapicodave> salah: is there wep or wpa set?
[03:24] <Ashfire908> can a windows boot virus on one hard drive affect ubuntu on another hard drive?
[03:24] <robbomx> just type it in with command prompt under sudo
[03:24] <nickrud> ward_, yes,that's where apache looks for files to serve (by default, that is)
[03:24] <Brian___> wow 6.06 is old. im with 7.04.
[03:24] <silvertip257> yep
[03:25] <salah> terapicodave, there is no security
[03:25] <Aishiko> kurtkraut LiveCD like Knoppix?
[03:25] <ward_> nickrud, i know, but i only need a subdir set :-)
[03:25] <ward_> nickrud, thanx for the help
[03:25] <Ultrabucket> Um, if I want to resize my partitions again, how do I do it without breaking anything?
[03:25] <mattg> j-wreck, you still there
[03:25] <computer> i cant get my wireless internet to work, but the hardware is fine. how do i troubelshoot it
[03:25] <nickrud> ward_, that's so apache can write to those directories/files: you know, uploads, webdav, that kind of thing
[03:25] <rafaelscj> is there somebody here that plays starcraft with wine?
[03:25] <Ultrabucket> currently running a dual boot with windows and Ubuntu 7.04
[03:25] <Brian___> thanks astro76!!!:-)
[03:25] <southafrikanse> hello. My Ubuntu sometimes just freezes. Is there anyway to know how?
[03:25] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  you can use Gparted, but please backup your data to be safe
[03:26] <southafrikanse> why does it freeze?
[03:26] <kaveh> S.O.S
[03:26] <Ultrabucket> Okay, how do you suppose I back up my date :D?
[03:26] <ward_> nickrud, i know but apache does only need write access to one specific dir
[03:26] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, no, the ubuntu livecd.
[03:26] <salah> southafrikanse, maybe hardware gets to hot?
[03:26] <ward_> nickrud, in my case i mean
[03:26] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  I have found it helps to defrag Windows if you haven't done so in a long time (if you're resizing that partition)
[03:26] <nickrud> ward_, ok, for a second I thought you meant a live user, ok :)
[03:26] <Parisi> Hello
[03:26] <southafrikanse> salah, is there anyway to confirm it's the hardware?
[03:26] <Ultrabucket> Yeh, I defragged alot.
[03:26] <silvertip257> ok
[03:27] <terapicodave> salah: not sure what to do then but look for errors with ndiswrapper or dmesg
[03:27] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  I will assume you've backed up your data ;)
[03:27] <Ultrabucket> I'll delete some crap off the windows partition, then defrag, then make the windows partition teenweeny~
[03:27] <Aishiko> ahhh OK the 7.04 doesn't work so I'll try the 6.06 which is what I got to install I'll be back in a min or 2 after I start it up since it takes a couple min to load everyting
[03:27] <nickrud> southafrikanse, you can run the memtest option from grub for a few hours ...
[03:27] <bibuntu> ward_: if you know what dir it is, sudo chmod 777 /var/www/thatdir . apache can now write
[03:27] <d4rkmonkey> when i run rm Music/*/*/.* it gives me a bunch of rm: cannot remove `.' or `..'   errors. The command is supposed to remove any hidden file (.*) in any artist directory (first *) in any album directory (*) in my Music folder, is there a better way to do this?
[03:27] <silvertip257> haha nice Ultrabucket
[03:27] <Ultrabucket> No backing up data~ I like to live on teh edge~ also, how the pants would I back up data :D?
[03:27] <Ultrabucket> Exactly~
[03:27] <doug__> how do you burn a .avi to a dvd?
[03:27] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, no
[03:28] <doug__> acidrip made it .avi
[03:28] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, I'd suggest find, but I am illiterate with it ;)  I've used gnome-find, a very old app for that
[03:28] <ward_> bibuntu, ok ty
[03:28] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, why Feisty (7.04) won't work ?
[03:28] <salah> southafrikanse, yes, restart your PC, turn into the bios, and go to PC Health Status, check what the CPU temperature is. Or it might be some other hardware that is unstable
[03:28] <Brian___> i run my ubuntu on a vm. a vm is a virtual machiene
[03:28] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: . is an alias for the current directory and .. is the parent directory. They are not real files and cannot be delted.
[03:28] <southafrikanse> nickrud, I tryed that but how do I know it ends?. It looks like he is running the test over and over again
[03:28] <nickrud> southafrikanse, it does
[03:28] <Ultrabucket> Either way, if it breaks completely, though it would be a pain, I feel confident enough to run ubuntu alone now. I would be pissed at losing my ISOs though :S
[03:28] <nickrud> southafrikanse, I usually let it run overnight
[03:28] <d4rkmonkey> Pici, how could I delete any files that start with a . (hidden files)?
[03:28] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  I use another drive to back it up (if it's important)
[03:28] <d4rkmonkey> Pici, because it didn't delete anything
[03:28] <Brian___> what? 7.04 works fine for me.
[03:28] <southafrikanse> salah, it's a laptop
[03:28] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: Are you sure there are files there to be deleted?
[03:29] <Ultrabucket> Yeh, I should borrow an external off someone.
[03:29] <ConstyXIV> has anyone tried the webkit version of epiphany?
[03:29] <Ultrabucket> thanks for the help ;d
[03:29] <Ultrabucket> lata~
[03:29] <d4rkmonkey> Pici, yes,  have 1712 songs in there, but over 1900 files
[03:29] <terapicodave> d4rkmonkey: you may want to go to a perl or shll script for this
[03:29] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  you want to boot to the Ubuntu LiveCD and under System>Admin>GNOME Partition Editor
[03:29] <salah> terapicodave, there is some interesting errors, like "scanning failed"  and "setting AP mac adress failed".. any ideas?
[03:29] <Grungebunny> what is a good program to burn avi movie files to dvds ?
[03:29] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: Maybe there are other files, like album cover images and other such things.
[03:29] <Ultrabucket> Okay~
[03:29] <terapicodave> salah: nope
[03:29] <colchaodemola> hey guys , why ubuntu becomes sooooooo slow if it does not get an IP address from the dhcp server ?
[03:29] <Brian___> tux is cute.
[03:29] <robbomx> KurtKraut hi it's me again, the Envy sound card i run  has got compatibility problems, but i haven't found an answer yet
[03:30] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  g'luck when you back up your data :P
[03:30] <Brian___> XD
[03:30] <d4rkmonkey> Pici I should check that, Do you know if amaroK stores album covers in the directory where your songs are?
[03:30] <kaveh> Pici, i can not install or remvoe any thng
[03:30] <jacob> pici hi
[03:30] <jacob> pici do you know how to uninstall a program i installed
[03:30] <kaveh> (Reading database ... dpkg: error processing kde (--remove):
[03:30] <kaveh>  unable to open files list file for package `kbounce': Input/output error
[03:30] <silvertip257> Ultrabucket:  I haven't had one crap out on me since I was a newbie and I do the same stuff w/ Gparted ;)
[03:30] <d4rkmonkey> Pici also when syncing (I forget the exact command I use, rsync or something) it gave me a bunch of things about hidden files
[03:30] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: there is a nice amarok script for that
[03:30] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: I'm not sure, sorry.
[03:30] <Paddy_EIRE> :D
[03:31] <arkive> how do you restart a service in ubuntu (desktop)? I tried using the service command but it looks like it's not installed
[03:31] <KurtKraut> robbomx, your issue is a bit too complicated to be dealed in real time chat. Consider posting in the ubuntuforums.org a detailed post asking for help.
[03:31] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: I'm not sure about rsync either, havent used it that much.
[03:31] <jacob> pici i installed the latest version of google earth but i feel like i don't need it or i don't want it, do you know how i can uninstall it
[03:31] <Ultrabucket> Okay, that's nifty then...
[03:31] <Ultrabucket> :D
[03:31] <d4rkmonkey> Paddy_EIRE I don't want it putting album covers in my music folder...
[03:31] <KurtKraut> arkive, what service do you want to restart ?
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: do you know how to get scripts in amarok
[03:31] <Pici> jacob: Did you install it from a .deb?
[03:31] <Pici> kaveh: I'm looking, hold on.
[03:31] <d4rkmonkey> Paddy_EIRE no. I've never used one in amarok.
[03:31] <Brian___> tux says:get ubuntu 6.06 if u have problems with 7.04.
[03:31] <nickrud> colchaodemola, you probably a problem with your hostname: check /etc/hostname , make sure it's only a hostname and has no domain; check /etc/hosts and make sure the hostname is on the same line as 127.0.0.1 with no domain, and run sudo /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: you/can/have/them/go/where/you/want
[03:32] <arkive> KurtKraut:  I installed munin-node and modified a conf. I wanted to restart the service without using kill ;] 
[03:32] <owen1> how do i set a static ip?
[03:32] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: 1 sec
[03:32] <Grungebunny> what is a good program to burn avi movie files to dvds ?
[03:32] <d4rkmonkey> Paddy_EIRE is there a way to check where they're going right now?

[03:32] <kaveh> Pici, thanks alot
[03:32] <Pici> !spam | P_Kable
[03:32] <punsad> owen1: ifconfig
[03:32] <ubotu> P_Kable: Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See !AskTheBot, !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam - and most importantly, use common sense :-)
[03:32] <punsad> owen1: man ifconfig
[03:32] <jacob> pici it was a bin file, all i did was write two commands (not knowing how to use it properly) and it got installed
[03:32] <KurtKraut> arkive, try sudo /etc/init.d/mu and them press TAB to make it autocomplete. Suposse the end will be filled by 'munin-mode', it should be: sudo /etc/init.d/munin-mode restart
[03:33] <Pici> jacob: You might be able to re-run the .bin file, it may give you an option to remove it.
[03:33] <owen1> punsad: thanks, what about the router?
[03:33] <ward_> owen1, system -> administration -> network, then click your connection and properties
[03:33] <kaveh> Pici, this is what i get all the time-->(Reading database ... dpkg: error processing kde (--remove):
[03:33] <kaveh>  unable to open files list file for package `kbounce': Input/output error
[03:33] <jacob> pici let me give it a try
[03:33] <ward_> owen1, there you can choose between DHCP, static ip, etc
[03:33] <arkive> ahh, nice one KurtKraut  ;] 
[03:33] <owen1> ward_: great, what should i do in the d-link?
[03:33] <d4rkmonkey> Pici just checked in amarok, and the max amount of album covers taht would be there, is 154, which would bring it to 1866, so there is a bunch of other files in there that shouldn't be...
[03:33] <Actionman> what is the wright way to remove this: firefoxmplayer/mplayerplug-in* /usr/local/firefox32/plugins/
[03:33] <ward_> owen1, d-link?
[03:33] <punsad> punsad: what about the router?  not sure what you are asking
[03:33] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: I always thought using either fspot or beagle to locate them.. but I think they go into some '$: ~./kde' folder
[03:33] <Grungebunny> what is a good program to burn avi movie files to dvds ?
[03:34] <owen1> ward_: my router
[03:34] <salah> terapicodave, anyways, do you know where I can set the essid via configuration file?
[03:34] <pike_> Actionman: dpkg or apt-get i guess but you can just delete the files
[03:34] <ward_> owen1, what exactly are you doing? you're not clear
[03:34] <punsad> punsad: if you have a router, many of them act as dhcp servers (they set the IP addresses for all nodes automatically)
[03:34] <terapicodave> salah: i use my own little script to do it via iwconfig wlan0 essid "blah"
[03:34] <Actionman> ok
[03:34] <jacob> pici, when i run the file it gives me a new window called "google earth setup"
[03:34] <ward_> owen1, most routers use DHCP to hand out IP's
[03:34] <pike_> Actionman: the plugins are pretty easy just drag and drop
[03:34] <KurtKraut> arkive, you can replace 'restart' by 'reload'. This will work in some programs... it makes a new read in the conf files without stopping the services
[03:34] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: in amarok go to 'tools > script manager'
[03:35] <salah> terapicodave, can you please share it with me?
[03:35] <owen1> ward_: i want to access my machine remotely
[03:35] <jacob> pici no uninstallation options, but it does show me two destination files
[03:35] <punsad> owen1: if you want to have the linux box have ip adress dynamically assigned, run the dhclient command
[03:35] <Pici> jacob: hmm.
[03:35] <d4rkmonkey> Paddy_EIRE yeah, they're in .kde/apps/amarok/albumcovers
[03:35] <Pici> jacob: What about running it with the option --help
[03:35] <ward_> owen1, owen1 aaaaah and u want a static ip so it stays the same? :-)
[03:35] <jacob> pici how do i do that?
[03:35] <owen1> ward_: punsad yes, i want the same ip
[03:35] <Pici> jacob: ./filename.bin --help
[03:35] <owen1> ward_: punsad each time i connect remotely.
[03:35] <jacob> pici let me give it a try
[03:35] <punsad> owen1: you can have the router always assign the same ip address for a given mac address
[03:36] <rafaelscj> how do I to disable autorun?
[03:36] <ward_> owen1, punsad = ?
[03:36] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: you should use amarok script plugins you get them In that above menu I mentioned ^
[03:36] <__mikem> Okay, firefox keeps crashing when I try to access certain websites, does anyone have any recomendations for an alternate browser, because its obvious that mozilla has lost their touch
[03:36] <ward_> aaaah hahaha :-)
[03:36] <emeriste> KurtKraut - How did you get gedit to edit LaTex and will it export to PDF ?
[03:36] <terapicodave> k...http://pastebin.com/m3f52a0ce
[03:36] <benzs_s> does anybody have any ideas as to how to make teamspeak work on ubuntu? neither of the options in the TS settings ('/dev/dsp' and 'defeault network') seem to allow me to hear anything ;<
[03:36] <owen1> ward_: sorry, i wanted punsad to see my reply to you.
[03:36] <KurtKraut> __mikem, does it crash when there is flash present in a website ?
[03:36] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: in amarok go to 'tools > script manager'
[03:36] <ward_> owen1, yeah i understand now :-)
[03:36] <d4rkmonkey> Paddy_EIRE I'm just trying to get rid of all the non-music files in my Music folder...
[03:36] <__mikem> KurtKraut, nope, just a plain old html page
[03:36] <owen1> punsad: so i only need to set my router?
[03:36] <pike_> __mikem: iceweasel but thats just firefox.. epiphany is a decent one for gnome dillo is nice but bare bones
[03:36] <ward_> owen1, do what he said thats the best option imo
[03:36] <nickrud> rafaelscj, system->prefs->Removable drives & media
[03:36] <punsad> owen1: yes.
[03:36] <Parisi> Anyone running Ubuntu 64?
[03:37] <punsad> owen1: have you played around with the settings on your router yet?
[03:37] <rafaelscj> nickrud, thanks
[03:37] <KurtKraut> emeriste, It seems that you don't know how LaTeX works... please read this book: http://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/info/lshort/english/lshort.pdf
[03:37] <emeriste> Okay.
[03:37] <owen1> punsad: i saw two relevant pages on my router, let me see it.
[03:37] <Paddy_EIRE> d4rkmonkey: ok.. I locate them In a different dir, with Playlists and other usefull media
[03:37] <KurtKraut> emeriste, you should use a command called 'pdflatex filename.tex' to convert to PDF. This is something done by the latex kit, not by the editor.
[03:37] <salah> any idea where to set the ESSID in ubuntu? I can't use the network manager
[03:37] <nickrud> benzs_s, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TeamSpeak has some help on sound
[03:37] <punsad> owen1: there's usually a web interface to interact with the router
[03:37] <Pici> !away > Atlas95_Zzz (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[03:38] <ubuntu> how do i set up a virtual machine on my install when i get it installed?
[03:38] <KurtKraut> emeriste, latex was not designed to be handled by a specific text editor. Any text editor should work with latex.
[03:38] <Pici> kaveh: I'm still looking, havent forgotten yet ;)
[03:38] <punsad> owen1: you can usually get to it by pointing your browser to http://192.168.0.1 (or some other similar ip address, for example)
[03:38] <owen1> punsad: yes, i am there now.
[03:38] <nickrud> ubuntu, 7.04?
[03:38] <jacob> pici no uninstallation option
[03:38] <ubuntu> yeah, nickrud
[03:38] <punsad> owen1: there should be all sorts of wizards there to get you going
[03:38] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, I have a command for you
[03:38] <kaveh> Pici, thanks problem is with kdebounce
[03:38] <owen1> punsad: i see checkbox - static ip.
[03:38] <Pici> jacob: I'm not sure.  I'm going to have to suggest googling it. Sorry.
[03:38] <d4rkmonkey> yes astro76 ?
[03:39] <owen1> punsad: what ip should i define?
[03:39] <Aishiko> OK got that loading
[03:39] <nickrud> ubuntu, add the line deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu gutsy-commercial main    to /etc/apt/sources.list, and sudo apt-get install vmware-server
[03:39] <punsad> punsad: it's up to you.  If the linux box already has an IP address, just stick with that one
[03:39] <ubuntu> somebody told me about virtualbox, is that available, nickrud?
[03:39] <punsad> oops.. that was obviously addressed to owen1
[03:39] <jacob> pici when i run the bin file, i get a new window showing me two directory files, i can't delete the directories itself?
[03:39] <nickrud> ubuntu, um, not quite: fiesty-commercial
[03:39] <ward_> punsad, recheck what you last said :p
[03:39] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, find ./ -type f -name '.*' -delete
[03:39] <nickrud> ubuntu, I've not tried that one
[03:39] <benzs_s> nickrud: thanks
[03:40] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, or replace ./ with whatever the base directory is
[03:40] <d4rkmonkey> astro76 ok, I'll try that
[03:40] <owen1> punsad: so i need to check the ip i currently have and set it in the router?
[03:40] <silvertip257> I'm using Dia (diagram/drawing app) to create diagrams, but it displaces my custom icons/pictures ..
[03:40] <owen1> punsad:  192.168.0.102
[03:40] <punsad> owen1: using sudo, you should easily be able to run the ifconfig command (no arguments) to have the ipaddress displayed
[03:40] <ubuntu> i've never heard of vmware, nickrud.  is it a sure worker with the ubuntu i downloaded from the ubuntu website?
[03:40] <punsad> owen1: there you go
[03:40] <ward_> punsad, also without sudo :-)
[03:40] <nickrud> ubuntu, yes, I use it to run vista
[03:41] <KurtKraut> ubuntu, I recommend you qemu and VirtualBox. Try searching for HowTo's mentioning them thru Google.
[03:41] <punsad> ward_: ah yes
[03:41] <ubuntu> cool.  i'm still running live right now, checking it out, nickrud
[03:41] <jacob> pici i found it
[03:41] <nickrud> ubuntu, and dapper, edgy, fiesty in x32 & x64
[03:41] <dd> hi
[03:41] <orchid`> hi
[03:41] <jacob> pici http://earth.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=44713
[03:41] <orchid`> im finally using this damn thing for irc
[03:41] <orchid`> anyone able to help me use wine?
[03:41] <jacob> pici oh sorry wrong one
[03:41] <nickrud> orchid`, pour it into a nice goblet
[03:42] <dd> i have a problem with a motorola softmodem (sm56)
[03:42] <astro76> jacob, Pici, great installation guide here :) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth
[03:42] <dd> when i try to connect throw kppp i get a NO CARRIER error
[03:42] <genefitz> ubuntu: running live still? First time install?
[03:42] <Pici> kaveh: Does apt-get install -f fix it.
[03:42] <ubuntu> yup. genefitz
[03:42] <Pici> astro76: Trying to find instructions on how to uninstall.
[03:42] <punsad> dd: is your modem set up correctly?
[03:42] <owen1> punsad: ISP Gateway Address? Primary DNS Address?
[03:42] <genefitz> ubuntu: how are you liking it so far?
[03:42] <astro76> Pici, also uninstall guide there :)
[03:42] <Pici> astro76: Ah, its on that page, thanks!
[03:42] <kaveh> Pici, let me check
[03:42] <orchid`> anyone ble to help me use wine?
[03:43] <Pici> jacob: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth#head-c1c56a1bb75c740a3a33269b946d931272b451f6
[03:43] <Pici> orchid`: What are you trying to do?
[03:43] <punsad> owen1: the linux box shouldn't need those
[03:43] <ectospasm> anyone have any experience with using a GPRS PC Card in a laptop for connecting to the Internet?
[03:43] <orchid`> im trying to install a program with windows applications tatus
[03:43] <ubuntu> it's nice, genefitz.  thinking about running it instead of vista, but i wanna make sure i can run a virtual machine so i can use my map software from microsoft
[03:43] <dd> punsad: i tried to configure it with slmodem tool
[03:43] <punsad> owen1: nor should the router (I think)
[03:43] <orchid`> and i know i need wine to do such
[03:43] <orchid`> im on a 64 bit system
[03:43] <owen1> punsad: Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0 ?
[03:43] <astro76> Pici, I just wrote that, glad it's finding use already :)
[03:43] <punsad> owen1: that sounds right
[03:44] <Pici> astro76: I wasnted to make sure that jacob saw it.
[03:44] <Pici> orchid`: Do you have wine installed yet?
[03:44] <owen1> punsad: before i hit save on the router, do i need to change something on my ubuntu?
[03:44] <Shpook> Hello everyone
[03:44] <nathan__1> when you install a theme, where are the actual files so you can edit them?
[03:44] <Aishiko> orchid it depends on the program if wine will work it won't will all windows apps
[03:44] <punsad> dd: do you know if the modem is correctly being recognized?
[03:44] <orchid`> i thinki do yes
[03:44] <punsad> owen1: no
[03:44] <orchid`> people say i have it installed anyuhow
[03:44] <Shpook> Not too busy in here tonight... good.
[03:44] <pauloco> try with the command :
[03:44] <kaveh> Pici, no
[03:44] <pauloco> sudo pppoeconf
[03:44] <dd> punsad: i tried to configure it with .scanModem too
[03:44] <dd> l
[03:45] <owen1> punsad: cross your fingers, i might be thrown away from irc if i loose connection..
[03:45] <genefitz> ubuntu: good deal, just remember there are a couple VM options for Ubuntu. There are a lot of possibilities. I have nothing against Microsoft, mind you, but after using Linux for a while, I have found it much more versatile than windows.
[03:45] <Pici> orchid`: Okay, so all you need to do, is navigate on the terminal to the directory the exe is in and do: wine file.exe
[03:45] <ubuntu-carl> okay, im gonna try to install it
[03:45] <genefitz> Personal opinion though..
[03:45] <Pici> kaveh: Errors?
[03:45] <nathan__1> when you install a theme, where are the actual files so you can edit them?
[03:45] <punsad> dd: from your problem description, it sounds to me more like a module problem.  what module does your modem use?
[03:45] <orchid`> no lcue how to do that
[03:45] <dd> and i did everything contained on YourModem.txt
[03:45] <dd> fie
[03:45] <dd> le
[03:45] <kaveh> Pici, it does not do any thing
[03:45] <Pici> orchid`: Where is the file?
[03:45] <pauloco> try with the command
[03:45] <Pici> kaveh: hold on.
[03:45] <pauloco> sudo pppoeconf
[03:45] <kaveh> Pici, ok
[03:45] <orchid`> errr
[03:45] <punsad> dd: was that the moddule name?
[03:45] <orchid`> dunno
[03:45] <orchid`> i jsut the sudo apt-get install wine command
[03:46] <nathan__1> where are the actual text files for themes installed to ?
[03:46] <punsad> dd: if so... does lsmod show that it is loaded?
[03:46] <orchid`> i thini it was on m desktop lemme check
[03:46] <Pici> orchid`: I mena, where is the exe file you want to run
[03:46] <ti-grrr> i loaded edubuntu today on a server that used to be a k12ltsp. i have noticed that it seems alot slower than k12ltsp. are there any tips?
[03:46] <Pici> orchid`: mena = mena
[03:46] <orchid`> dont know
[03:46] <amgine_> If I need to change keyboard layouts, do I need to reboot for it to take effect?
[03:46] <orchid`> err
[03:46] <orchid`> yeah its on my desktop
[03:46] <mikubuntu> is this the right place to ask for help constructing a document (flyer, actually) in ubuntu's open office?  i need to learn how to superimpose text on a picture.
[03:46] <Pici> orchid`: .. mean. arg, fingers arent moving well tonight.
[03:46] <Shpook> How would I go about adding partitions to my hard drive without reformatting, and what tools would I use?
[03:46] <nathan__1> where are the actual text files for themes installed to ?
[03:46] <ubuntu-carl> genefitz: how do i want to partition my drive?  i have a 100gb drive in my laptop
[03:46] <punsad> Shpook: gparted livecd is really good for this
[03:47] <dd> punsand: I did the following: slmodemd -c USA --alsa hw:0,6
[03:47] <Pici> orchid`: open up a termina (applications>accessories>terminal). type `cd Desktop` then `wine file.exe` where file.exe is the file you want to run.
[03:47] <Mr56k> Gutsy needs support for Realtek wifi.. I hope this gets added.
[03:47] <genefitz> ubuntu-carl, which windows OS are you running?
[03:47] <__mikem> OKay I have a problem, no matter what browser I use, when I access certain websites, the browser crashes.
[03:47] <nonix4> Duh, if installing a server (w/ raid), do I want server install cd, alternate install cd or the dvd?
[03:47] <orchid`> k
[03:47] <orchid`> thx
[03:47] <jacob> pici, i get permission denied when i paste the second command to uninstall it
[03:47] <dd> punsad: and it created /dev/ttySLO device
[03:47] <astro76> nonix4, alternate
[03:47] <ubuntu-carl> i downloaded the one on the site...
[03:47] <Shpook> punsad: Cool, that's all I needed was a little direction, thank you very much.
[03:47] <Shpook> Google will do the rest lol
[03:47] <nonix4> astro76: will dvd do too?
[03:47] <pike_> ubuntu-carl: generally id recommend 5-10 gigs for / and most in /home then maybe 500MB or a gig for swap for a simple setup
[03:47] <robbomx> hay KurtKraut made a post; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3253612#post3253612
[03:47] <kaveh> Pici, any thing i try to remove or install get --> unable to open files list file for package `kbounce': Input/output error
[03:48] <punsad> dd:  all that sounds good.  I'll tell you right now, the last time I used a modem with linux was 6 years ago
[03:48] <astro76> nonix4, oh yeah I believe that has the alternate installer also
[03:48] <__mikem> OKay I have a problem, no matter what browser I use, when I access certain websites, the browser crashes.
[03:48] <__mikem> crap sorry about the repeat
[03:48] <nathan__1> where are the actual text files for themes installed to ?
[03:48] <__mikem> I hate xchat history
[03:48] <emeriste> KurtKraut - Okay so you can just use gedit to type out the ascii.tex file and then compile it at the command line.
[03:48] <robbomx> whois: KurtKraut
[03:48] <dd> pusad: and i tried to connect thow kppp and kppp says modem ready, but when i tried to connect y get a NO CARRIER ERROR
[03:48] <emeriste> KurtKraut - I thought there was some kind of LaTex Plugin a person would need for gedit.
[03:48] <pike_> ubuntu-carl: ive never actually used even 8 gigs with / and /usr together
[03:48] <punsad> dd: I remember having to use the mknod command to set it up.  I  hope modem setup has come along since then
[03:48] <robbomx> lol. @ myself
[03:48] <Pici> kaveh: Try reinstalling it.
[03:49] <Pici> kaveh: Then removing again.
[03:49] <genefitz> ubuntu-carl: I would agree with pike_ starting out. Mine uses the entire hard drive in a 3 partition system, but I have a separate home and root.
[03:49] <Shpook> Oh wait, one more: There shouldn't be a problem with creating say, 6 seperate partitions, each with their own OS? 5 Linux and 1 Windows.
[03:49] <punsad> dd: do you hear the modem trying to connect? is there a dial tone?
[03:49] <Pici> jacob: Those commands are all supposed to be on one line.
[03:49] <KurtKraut> emeriste, no :D
[03:49] <jacob> pici i think i know what's wrong
[03:49] <jacob> pici look at the directory of the second command
[03:49] <jacob> pici where it says usr, do i need to put in my name for that?
[03:50] <genefitz> But for a first use, a 500Mb swap and a 4.5 - 9.5 home should be fine
[03:50] <Pici> jacob: No.
[03:50] <dd> pusad: it no try to connect i get the error that i said
[03:50] <jacob> pici oh
[03:50] <keithhhhh> does all the same software work with Ubuntu Studio as with Ubuntu?
[03:50] <nathan__1> anyone have a vista theme installed on their ubuntu?
[03:50] <KurtKraut> keithhhhh, in theory, yes
[03:50] <dd> punsad: doing the same using wvdial i get the same error
[03:50] <nonix4> where could I RTFM server vs alternate installer?
[03:50] <Shpook> keithhhh: yes, ubuntu-studio is ubuntu with extra software and packages
[03:50] <Pici> keithhhhh: For the most part, some programs work better with a low-latency kernel, which is not by default on Ubuntu
[03:50] <soccermike1337> Ok, my hard drive only has 1 partition, and it has windows on it... So will the ubuntu installer resize said partition for me?
[03:50] <punsad> dd: how do you know that the module for your modem is loaded correctly?
[03:50] <kaveh> Pici, install wont install any thing remove give same error
[03:51] <soccermike1337> Or do I need to get a program to resize it first?
[03:51] <astro76> jacob, copy the whole thing (it's one line) and paste it in your terminal
[03:51] <salah> is there any ways to get a light work? For example the wireless LAN button, which should light
[03:51] <Shpook> sorry, yeah, and a low-latency kernel
[03:51] <Mr56k> Ubuntu will do it
[03:51] <keithhhhh> KurtKraut: then why use ubuntu isnt Low latency always better?
[03:51] <Mr56k> soccer
[03:51] <soccermike1337> ok
[03:51] <soccermike1337> thanks!
[03:51] <Mr56k> np
[03:51] <soccermike1337> is it an easy install process?
[03:51] <Mr56k> very easy
[03:51] <genefitz> keithhhhh: yes, Ubuntu Studio is based in Feisty, I believe, so you should be able to run the same programs. Many have added the "studio" repos to their feisty system and such..
[03:51] <ubuntu-carl> how fast does this install?
[03:51] <dd> punsad: i dont know how to know if the modem modules are loaded correctl
[03:51] <dd> y
[03:51] <pauloco> yes,very intuitiv
[03:51] <LaCtoSE> soccermike1337, use the manual installer
[03:51] <nathan__1> does anyone have vista-styled ubuntu?
[03:51] <punsad> dd: has this modem ever worked on the current linux installation?
[03:51] <soccermike1337> the manual?
[03:52] <punsad> dd: or did it just stop working
[03:52] <LaCtoSE> yes
[03:52] <amgine_> Ah... never mind. Keyboard indicator is needed to switch between available keyboard layouts.
[03:52] <Shpook> I added the Studio repo to my system, and have no problems
[03:52] <soccermike1337> is it hard to use?
[03:52] <pauloco> 30-40 min.(it depends of your machine)
[03:52] <LaCtoSE> no
[03:52] <keithhhhh> genefitz: Well I got a fresh hard drive so Im debating what to install
[03:52] <pike_> ubuntu-carl: 10 minutes? maybe 30 depends on the system
[03:52] <Aishiko> kurtkraut they still don't work under the LiveCD :(
[03:52] <Pici> jacob: Paste all of the commands in a text editor like gedit, modify it so its all on one line and then paste it in the terminal.
[03:52] <ubuntu-carl> cool.  i have a new hp laptop, pike_
[03:52] <dd> punsad: this is the first time that i tried to configure it
[03:52] <pauloco> its very easy to use(more easy than ms. systems)
[03:52] <LaCtoSE> you'll get a bar representing your hd, then just "chop" bits you want to use for / and swap
[03:52] <Mr56k> which laptop you get Carl ?
[03:52] <pike_> ubuntu-carl: dual booting or going for broke with just ubuntu?
[03:53] <Shpook> Will there be any problems with 7 partitions, 5 with Linux, 1 with Windows, and 1 for data?
[03:53] <fourtwentyman420> sup
[03:53] <ubuntu-carl> going for broke with just ubuntu, pike_
[03:53] <pauloco> dual booting
[03:53] <pike_> Shpook: just make linux first and make it a primary partition. linux doesnt care
[03:53] <pike_> Shpook: er windows first and primary
[03:53] <punsad> dd: before I would do any troubleshooting with your configuration and using different clients (wvdial, kppp, etc... ) I'd make sure that you have the right modules installed.  FOr a long time, linux didn't support modems very well.  I'm not sure if that's still not the case
[03:53] <genefitz> keithhhhh: it really depends on what you want to do with it. If you are really wanting to do some heavy recording and processing, studio may be the best way to go. For my studio, I run 64 Studio, but that is just a point of preference, my guitarist uses Ubuntu studio and swears by it..
[03:53] <Pici> kaveh: okay. We're going to try something.
[03:53] <AnRkey> i am looking for a way to set repositories up in text mode with a tool
[03:54] <AnRkey> anyone got any idea's?
[03:54] <Shpook> pike_: okay thanks, looks like I'll have to reformat anyways then lol
[03:54] <kaveh> Pici, ?
[03:54] <jacob> pici let me see what i can do
[03:54] <astro76> AnRkey, you mean besides using a text editor to edit sources.list?
[03:54] <AnRkey> astro76, yes
[03:54] <Pici> kaveh: mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/kbounce.list ~  Then apt-get install --reinstall it. Then remove it again (if thats what you want)
[03:55] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, if they work in the livecd in the 6.06 version, please, report this issue as a bug
[03:55] <AnRkey> i am working on a vmware machine that will allow repos to be chosen on first boot
[03:55] <punsad> AnRkey: why not edit the sources.list file
[03:55] <AnRkey> ^^^
[03:55] <astro76> AnRkey, unless aptitude can do it, I'm not aware of a way, editing the file is easy though
[03:55] <dd> pusand: i think modules are loade correctly, because i tried to connect without configure it and kppp said modem busy
[03:55] <Pici> kaveh: if it works, you can delete kbounce.list from your home directory.
[03:55] <Shpook> I enjoy studio very much, and I only create music in my spare time. Although, I'm fighting with getting JACK set up, but that's for another time
[03:55] <punsad> AnRkey: oh
[03:55] <kaveh> Pici, thanks alot
[03:55] <GNine> is ubuntu running xorg 7.1?
[03:55] <GNine> fiesty fawn
[03:55] <soccermike1337> ok.. im at the menu for the ubuntu installer.. how do i go into manual mode?
[03:55] <KurtKraut> GNine, yes
[03:55] <GNine> k
[03:55] <astro76> AnRkey, sounds like you'll need to write a script which modifies sources.list for the user
[03:55] <genefitz> Shpook, Jack can be a bugger, it really has an issue with some capture cards.
[03:55] <punsad> dd: that doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling that it's installed correctly
[03:56] <Aishiko> kurtkraut they didn't and I can't get 7.04 to load beyond the flash screen the little bar doesn't even do the knight rider thing
[03:56] <AnRkey> GNine, feisty uses 7.2
[03:56] <kaveh> Pici, mv: cannot stat `/var/lib/dpkg/info/kbounce.list': Input/output error
[03:56] <Shpook> genefitz: especially no name $30 cards lol
[03:56] <soccermike1337> ok.. im at the menu for the ubuntu installer.. how do i go into manual mode?
[03:56] <GNine> any other bidders?  j/k   ;-)
[03:56] <Pici> kaveh: even as sudo?
[03:56] <AnRkey> astro76, i was thinking the same
[03:56] <Mr56k> So what does one do when they have a laptop and they can't get there wifi or sound working under Ubuntu "or any distro for that matter" ?  Is there a way to report the hardware so that maybe they might fix it in future installers
[03:56] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, are you sure that your CD has no errors ? Have you checked the CD for erros in the boot screen ?
[03:56] <AnRkey> astro76, did not want to make one if there was an easier way
[03:56] <kaveh> Pici, i did it a s root
[03:56] <punsad> gotta go.  sorry dd I could help more.
[03:56] <twoshadetod> how difficult/involved is it to lock down my wireless router so my neighbor doens't steal my precious bandwidth making warcraft unplayable?!
[03:57] <Pici> kaveh: That isnt good.
[03:57] <Shpook> twoshadetod: it should be in your router settings
[03:57] <Shpook> just add a password
[03:57] <__mikem> I keep getting bus errors when I try to acces scertain websites
[03:57] <genefitz> Shpook, you are right. I have been able to use my Alesis ADAT card with it pretty well though..
[03:57] <astro76> AnRkey, maybe you could borrow code from the system->administration->software sources tool
[03:57] <Aishiko> kurtkraut not the 6.06 the 7.04 started something and then stopped on me I cna go and make the 6.06 check itself if you tell me what I need to look for once it prints out it checksum
[03:57] <twoshadetod> Shpook, I thought that was it but it wants it in a different "language"? or format
[03:57] <kaveh> Pici, can not fix it?
[03:57] <Pici> kaveh: Do you know when the last time you did a fsck was?
[03:57] <ubuntu-carl> wow, i'm at 57% already!
[03:57] <genefitz> Of course the card is nearly 10 years old, and at one time was the top of the line
[03:58] <Shpook> the addresses are different between routers, but usually you type something like 192.168.1.0 in the address bar, and you can change router settings
[03:58] <Mr56k> So what does one do when they have a laptop and they can't get there wifi or sound working under Ubuntu "or any distro for that matter" ?  Is there a way to report the hardware so that maybe they might fix it in future installers
[03:58] <genefitz> ubuntu-carl: it doesn't take long to install :-)
[03:58] <kaveh> Pici, yeah , maybe 10 days ago
[03:58] <AnRkey> astro76, i was thinking about looking into the network installer's code
[03:58] <keram> hey
[03:58] <Noratetsu> umm i have a qustion
[03:58] <Pici> kaveh: I'd do `sudo touch /forcefsck` and reboot.
[03:58] <ubuntu-carl> sweet deal, genefitz.  i like a quick install
[03:58] <jacob> pici, can you send me the commands instead, i don't know how to separate the lines
[03:58] <AnRkey> astro76, i was hoping that i could run just that part of the setup somehow
[03:58] <Noratetsu> does ubuntu run next to windows?

[03:59] <DJ_Danni> Hello
[03:59] <Noratetsu> does ubuntu run next to windows?
[03:59] <Shpook> twoshade, have you tried to access the router?
[03:59] <DJ_Danni> I need help with Firewall
[03:59] <twoshadetod> yeah im in it now
[03:59] <Aishiko> kurtkraut thanks looking at that now
[03:59] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, the Feisty kernel is SMP ready as far as I remember
[03:59] <twoshadetod> Shpook,
[03:59] <AnRkey> Noratetsu, next to or on the same computer?
[03:59] <genefitz> ubuntu-carl, just as a note, the major issue with notebooks is with wireless, but you can google the "howto" or just search the Ubuntu Forums
[03:59] <Noratetsu> on the same computer
[03:59] <keram> i know this isnt really a ubuntu related question but if you can help please do. i got this new router the WNR834M and ever since i got it i have not been able to connect to certain secure websites, usually the websites work fine until i try to login and purchase something, when i do it usually freezes on the login screen
[03:59] <AnRkey> Noratetsu, you can dual boot windows and Ubuntu
[03:59] <astro76> AnRkey, is there anything wrong with just enabling all the repos and making the user aware of the Software Sources tool?
[04:00] <ubuntu-carl> it did fine with my wireless so far, genefitz
[04:00] <keram> when i disconnect the router and plug my computer directly into the cable modem everything works fine
[04:00] <Noratetsu> awsome thats what i wanted to know
[04:00] <Shpook> is there a WiFi security section, or something similar?
[04:00] <astro76> !dualboot | Noratetsu
[04:00] <ubotu> Noratetsu: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty
[04:00] <Noratetsu> how you go about doing that is it automatic?
[04:00] <genefitz> Shpook, keep an eye on Ebay, that is where I got mine, I paid like $. It was a deal..
[04:00] <keram> unfortunately i have multiple computers and i cannot settle with this solution
[04:00] <AnRkey> astro76, well the vm will be text based
[04:00] <genefitz> opops $50 even
[04:00] <linux2> im wondering if anyone here can help me out with this issue im having. I have an ULTRAsparc IIe here and i am new to the whole sparc architecture. Well anyways i have been trying to install linux on it. debian and ubuntu I have both tried but with no luck. Now before i install solaris 10 i had been trying to boot the debian and ubuntu install cds which both stopped at "booting linux....". It seemed to just lock up. so i then installed so
[04:00] <linux2> laris 10. after installing solaris 10 i figured i would try linux again. and now linux just starts booting up and says "Loading initial ramdisk...." "Illegal Instruction". and then goes back to the OK prompt. Does anyone here have any experiecne with sparc systems. Specifically ultrasparc platforms (64bit). This is a sunblade 100 system. any ideas?
[04:00] <soccermike1337> how long does it normally take the ubuntu installer to load from the installer menu?
[04:00] <genefitz> ubuntu-carl, good deal then..
[04:00] <Shpook> lol genefitz, I think I just might
[04:00] <bruenig> soccermike1337, varies greatly
[04:00] <twoshadetod> Shpook, ima try it again , before it wanted it in ascii or hx or something besides a regular password you would use to log into ubuntu for instnace
[04:00] <DJ_Danni> I have Server with diffrend ports and when i try to Accest them i get error.
[04:00] <soccermike1337> ah
[04:00] <ubuntu-carl> k i better get going, ill be back later
[04:01] <Aishiko> kurtkraut I wanted Feisty but after using the alternate CD to install it on reboot it couldn't boot
[04:01] <soccermike1337> carl
[04:01] <Pici> jacob: If you just select all of the text in that box at once you should be able to paste it in the terminal and it should work correctly.
[04:01] <genefitz> Shpook, I paid like $50 for the card and $150 a piece for my old Black face ADATS
[04:01] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me with that?
[04:01] <Shpook> oh, it uses a hex key...it should give you the option to enter the password, then show you the hex key for the password
[04:01] <soccermike1337> which wireless card do you have, ubuntu-carl?
[04:01] <twoshadetod> Shpook, Should i go WEP64 or 128?
[04:01] <KurtKraut> Aishiko, we need to be sure that your CD is properly burned before going deeper in the diagnosis
[04:01] <Shpook> genefitz: wow, not bad
[04:01] <xp_prg> sudo: alsaconf: command not found
[04:01] <xp_prg> any ideas why this would not exist?
[04:02] <Shpook> twoshade, 128 is more secure, but usually unnecessary
[04:02] <Aishiko> kurtkraut rogerwilco be back after I check that disk
[04:02] <mhiku> where can i outsource and develop a vga-usb client to lan to vga-usb host device?
[04:02] <Shpook> i beleive WEP64 is standard
[04:02] <ubuntu-carl> its built-in, soccermike1337
[04:02] <soccermike1337> right
[04:02] <bruenig> !find alsaconf
[04:02] <DJ_Danni> I have Server with diffrend ports and when i try to Accest them i get error. Can somone help me with that?
[04:02] <soccermike1337> but do you know what model it is?
[04:02] <ubotu> Package/file alsaconf does not exist in feisty
[04:02] <jacob> pici, i guess is already uninstalled, it says no such file or directory and it's not in the Internet section in the applications menu
[04:02] <DJ_Danni> Its Firewall error
[04:02] <twoshadetod> Shpook, has a passphrase option i must have overlooked, im trying to set it to do that instead
[04:02] <soccermike1337> i have a built in one that is an Intel Wireless a/b/g
[04:02] <Pici> jacob: Looks good then :)
[04:02] <Shpook> genefitz: first thing I need to due is get a MIDI-compatible guitar
[04:02] <genefitz> twoshadetod, if you really need 128, I would look for a place that is less "hacker friendly" lol
[04:02] <jacob> pici ok, thanks
[04:03] <Shpook> lol
[04:03] <ubuntu-carl> nope, just that it's using ipw3945 for the driver, soccermike1337
[04:03] <soccermike1337> oh
[04:03] <Shpook> twoshade, is it by chance a belkin router?
[04:03] <soccermike1337> ok
[04:03] <soccermike1337> you have the same card as me then
[04:03] <soccermike1337> and it worked on install?
[04:03] <AnRkey> astro76, i think i can do it easily with an app called sed
[04:03] <DJ_Danni> I have Server with diffrend ports and when i try to Accest them i get error. Can somone help me with that? it is som error in the Firewall
[04:04] <DJ_Danni> i want to turn off the firewall
[04:04] <owen1_> punto: it didn't work...
[04:04] <genefitz> Shpook, I run mic'd guitar, drums, and tube amp'd (box'd) bass, into a console into ADAT. I just transfer from ADAT to computer for mix-down, master, and re-master.
[04:04] <owen1_> punto: i have 2 sections in my router that seems to be relevant.
[04:04] <Shpook> DJ, it might be a little out of my league, but is it hardware or software firewall?
[04:04] <owen1_> punto: 1. WAN and DHCP
[04:04] <cappicard> hmm... how can i burn an UIF file in linux?
[04:04] <DJ_Danni> Not shure
[04:05] <DJ_Danni> I just wanna know how i can turn off the Firewall'
[04:05] <owen1_> punto: i treid to play with both but something went wrong.
[04:05] <Pici> !firewall | DJ_Danni
[04:05] <ubotu> DJ_Danni: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:05] <Shpook> genefitz: you don't mess around with MIDI? it adds a whole 'nother dimension to music lol
[04:05] <DJ_Danni> Not not point me to this sites
[04:05] <nickrud> DJ_Danni, sudo iptables -F will flush all the current rules
[04:06] <DJ_Danni> I have try that
[04:06] <DJ_Danni> not woork
[04:06] <nickrud> DJ_Danni, then sudo iptables -L will list the active ones
[04:06] <soccermike1337> wow.. the installer is taking a long time to load
[04:06] <Shpook> genefitz: I'm used to just recording directly into a cheap 6-track cd-recorder
[04:06] <genefitz> Shpook, It took forever for me to move from Analog to Digital, then even longer to move from ADAT mix-down to master, to ADAT to computer...lol
[04:07] <mjancaitis> Anybody around for install troubleshooting?
[04:07] <Shpook> Do you play/record professionally or as a hobby?
[04:07] <Mortz> *Hello World* can someone please tell me how to install an os over a lan or even if it is possible
[04:07] <genefitz> Shpook, I went from reel to reel, to ADAT, and now to "visual mixing" on the computer..
[04:07] <PiNoYBoYiTaLiA> anyone want to help me stop the X server. i'm trying to install Nvidia drivers. i've looked online. people posted hit CTL+ALT+F1. log in as root. type init 3. find driver and type sh "whatever the driver is called" as soon as i do that...Nvidia say i still have an X server running. any advice would be appreciated :)
[04:07] <b4l74z4r> how do i make a program show up in the applications menu when i've compiled and installed it from source?
[04:07] <DJ_Danni> Nickrund i see INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT
[04:07] <genefitz> Shpook, old dogs, new tricks, and all that, you know?
[04:08] <Pici> PiNoYBoYiTaLiA: `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop` to stop the xserver
[04:08] <bruenig> b4l74z4r, add a .desktop in /usr/share/applications
[04:08] <Shpook> genefitz: lol your making me want to upgrade now...I've been wanting a cheap ADAT and better capture card, along with a good set of studio speakers, so I can get back into recording
[04:09] <bruenig> b4l74z4r, although generally apps intended to show up like that will have one installed with it, have you done sudo update-desktop-database sense installing?
[04:09] <bruenig> since*
[04:09] <b4l74z4r> bruenig: no
[04:09] <b4l74z4r> i'm pretty new to linux
[04:09] <DJ_Danni> nickrund in that i see destination
[04:09] <steven_> hello
[04:10] <Shpook> hey twoshade, any luck?
[04:10] <steven_> gaim won't connect to any yahoo chatrooms :(
[04:10] <genefitz> Shpook, I have learned to love Ebay, I built my whole studio for about $1500, well that plus the cost of a computer. But Linux made computer aided recording possible for me..
[04:10] <ironmata1>  when useing rm -rf do u incluse a /before .whatever?
[04:11] <steven_> So how is everyone ?
[04:11] <mjancaitis> Hey guys - I'm installing Feisty to an HP DV6140us laptop, and it's correctly installed, but when it gets to the login screen, the drum sound just loops over and over; when I fill in the login information, it starts looping the login sound and then hangs; pnpbios=off tags in the grub options does nothing, recovery mode hangs trying to boot, and I don't know what else to do
[04:11] <b4l74z4r> bruenig: "sudo update-desktop-database" is that the exact syntax?
[04:11] <Shpook> wow...$1500 is a steal. and yeah, you've gotta love open-source
[04:11] <wctraxler> william
[04:11] <genefitz> ironmata1: be very careful when saying something like that..
[04:11] <genefitz> you could really screw up someone's system
[04:11] <steven_> wish yahoo would get with it and create a yahoo messenger for ubuntu
[04:12] <wctraxler> no dout
[04:12] <Shpook> steven, what happened?
[04:12] <Shpook> what message do you get?
[04:12] <genefitz> Shpook, it took a lot of searching, and a lot of waiting
[04:12] <ironmata1> i was asking for my own information
[04:12] <soccermike1337> wow
[04:12] <soccermike1337> its been like 10 minutes
[04:12] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me to turn OFF the Firewall?
[04:12] <soccermike1337> still not loaded
[04:12] <steven_> gaim no longer alllows me enter chatrooms
[04:12] <genefitz> ironmatal, what are you trying to remove?
[04:12] <wctraxler> ok some one said there was a update for network manger any i dea how to get it
[04:12] <Shpook> genefitz, maybe I'll make that my next project after my HTPC and home theater
[04:12] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me to turn OFF the Firewall?
[04:13] <Pici> wctraxler: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[04:13] <Shpook> steven, but does it connect and show your friend list?
[04:13] <wctraxler> ok hold on
[04:13] <slavik> what do I need to be able to access my nokia 8862? (to upload/download/install stuff on it)
[04:13] <steven_> yes
[04:13] <wctraxler> i think 7.04
[04:13] <CorpseFeeder> I used source-o-matic thingy, but I am still getting "Package linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic is not available, but is referred to by another package." Do I need to tell source-o-matic that I am using feisty instead even though I am using edgy?
[04:13] <ironmata1> bugged version of cedega  rm -rf .cedega dosent appear to get a result
[04:13] <steven_> it works fine with the buddy list
[04:13] <soccermike1337> question: is it normal for the installer to take more than 10 minutes to load?
[04:13] <Pici> wctraxler: And what does apt-cache policy network-manager say the currently installed version is.
[04:13] <steven_> and room list loads but you click join a room and it does nothing
[04:14] <zyth-remote> ironmata1, you may need to sudo rm -rf .cedega
[04:14] <wctraxler> well when i click on about on network manger it says 6.4
[04:14] <genefitz> ironmatal, if you are going to remove the program, follow the procedures, if you use that command follows by a "/" you will remove your root directory or your home directory.
[04:14] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me to turn OFF the Firewall?
[04:14] <genefitz> hold on and I will get you the proper command..
[04:14] <Shpook> steve, hmm, it's doing the same for me
[04:14] <Pici> wctraxler: Thats the current version for Feisty (7.04)
[04:15] <steven_> good glad i'm not the only one
[04:15] <Pelo> DJ_Danni,  is this the same thing as yesterfay ?
[04:15] <Shpook> it's possible it's on Yahoo's end..when I used the actual Yahoo client it would do the same thing sometimes
[04:15] <wctraxler> well i found a network manger 0.6.5
[04:15] <Pici> CorpseFeeder: what are you trying to do?
[04:15] <Aishiko> kurtkraut disc self check said everythingg was working
[04:15] <orchid`> hooy shuit
[04:15] <orchid`> im installing 85 files
[04:15] <orchid`> damn
[04:15] <Shpook> or it could be a problem with Gaim and Yahoo communication
[04:15] <mjancaitis> Hey guys - I'm installing Feisty to an HP DV6140us laptop, and it's correctly installed, but when it gets to the login screen, the drum sound just loops over and over; when I fill in the login information, it starts looping the login sound and then hangs; pnpbios=off tags in the grub options does nothing, recovery mode hangs trying to boot, and I don't know what else to do
[04:15] <Pici> wctraxler: That is standard in the next version of Ubuntu.
[04:15] <steven_> i've tried and tried to load yahoo messenger on my feisty fawn
[04:15] <CorpseFeeder> Pici: trying to upgrade edgy to feisty.

[04:16] <wctraxler> ok
[04:16] <pawan> hi
[04:16] <Shpook> I don't think Yahoo makes a linux client
[04:16] <pawan> jetaudio for ubuntu
[04:16] <steven_> they do for redhat and debian
[04:16] <CorpseFeeder> Pici: I originally tried using the "upgrade" button in software update, but that just f'ed up my whole system...

[04:24] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  I know,  but somethimes for some reasons,  very rarely for no apparent or understandable reason, a clean install will get borked,  , just install again
[04:24] <ltf> I have /dev/hdb1 and i want to mount it, but when i try to mount it, it says "mount: can't find /hot in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[04:24] <Pelo> DJ_Danni,   open a terminal ,   type   sudo iptables -L   and pastebin the result
[04:25] <Arrick> hey all, how do I stop irssi from running on 6.06.1?
[04:25] <Arrick> and stop the ssh service
[04:25] <mjancaitis> This is my fourth install :(
[04:25] <DJ_Danni> I have thar Result
[04:25] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  they've all done this ?
[04:25] <mjancaitis> All off the alternate install disc, because the LiveCD does the same thing
[04:25] <DJ_Danni> But its Confused me
[04:25] <nickrud> lft, then you need to define it in /etc/fstab ; what kind of partition is it?
[04:25] <ltf> it's a freebsd partition
[04:26] <Pelo> !pastebin | DJ_Danni   put copy the result tehre and give us the link
[04:26] <ubotu> DJ_Danni   put copy the result tehre and give us the link: 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)
[04:26] <DJ_Danni> ok
[04:26] <Pelo> mjancaitis,   what's your cmputer ?
[04:26] <nickrud> ltf, um, that's an os, not a file system type
[04:26] <File13> no colonel sanders your wrong, momma is right
[04:26] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[04:26] <ltf> well, that would make it ufstype=44bsd, right?
[04:26] <t0phr3> hi everybody
[04:26] <Pelo> galpa,  /join #ubuntu-es
[04:26] <mjancaitis> Pelo, HP dv6140us
[04:26] <Enders> hi dr. nick
[04:26] <nickrud> so let me rephrase the question :) what type of file system is on the partition ;)
[04:27] <Pelo> mjancaitis,   64 bt system ?
[04:27] <mjancaitis> Yep
[04:27] <hyperbola> i tested the command
[04:27] <hyperbola> just now
[04:27] <ltf> BSD file system
[04:27] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  and did you try to install the amd64 or the i386  version ?
[04:27] <mjancaitis> the amd64
[04:27] <hyperbola> i used a qemu machine
[04:27] <hyperbola> and it did crash it
[04:28] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  what chipset for your audiocard and videocard ?
[04:28] <hyperbola> could someone tell me what it actually does?
[04:28] <Pici> hyperbola: Thats nice, we'd appreciate it if you didnt talk about it in this channel. We dont want unsuspecting people running it accidentally.
[04:28] <Pelo> !enter | hyperbola
[04:28] <ubotu> hyperbola: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:28] <Pici> hyperbola: I'll pm you an article.
[04:28] <mjancaitis> let me see what I can find, Pelo - you have any specific commands I should run (Windows only, obviously) to get the info you need?
[04:29] <richardjc> guys, how do i set gDesklets to always be on top?
[04:29] <DJ_Danni> Pelo and ubotu http://www.spacestream.net/error.txt
[04:29] <DJ_Danni> Error
[04:29] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  I guess checking in the  hardware manager in control pannel > system  would do it
[04:29] <hyperbola> thanks
[04:29] <Pelo> DJ_Danni, hold on
[04:29] <DJ_Danni> ok
[04:29] <nickrud> ltf, hm, never tried that one before. Reading man mount
[04:29] <t0phr3> anyone having problems with corrupt gutsy CDs?
[04:29] <the_padawan> hi all, how do i adjust the levels of my microphone? my soundcard plays audio fine but i cannot use my microphone
[04:29] <nickrud> ltf ufs file system with ufstype=44bsd?
[04:30] <Pelo> DJ_Danni,  ok  you have no firewall rules,  your firewall is not active, you do not need to uninstall anything
[04:30] <ltf> why can't i just mount, why do i need to edit /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab ?
[04:30] <Pelo> DJ_Danni,  the trouble you are having with azurues is not caused by a firewall,  it is probably caused by your isp
[04:30] <nickrud> ltfs try sudo mount -t ufs -o usfstype=44bsd /hot
[04:30] <AnRkey> the_padawan, double click on the speaker near your date and time in the system tray
[04:30] <DJ_Danni> Pelo
[04:31] <Pelo> DJ_Danni, go and ask for help with this in #azureus-support  tell them that the ppl in #ubuntu say that your firewall is completely turned off
[04:31] <DJ_Danni> Here is what Syp.shoutcast.com say
[04:31] <AnRkey> the_padawan, if you don't see your mic then click edit > preferences and enable the control for it
[04:31] <Arrick> hrmm, I must have to ask by name in here to get help
[04:31] <Arrick> hey all, how do I stop irssi from running on 6.06.1?
[04:31] <Arrick> and stop the ssh service
[04:31] <the_padawan> AnRkey, I don't think I have that applet, I am using KDE
[04:31] <gerro> my computer isn't detecting the cdrom... it was before so I have no clue why its doing it now. Rebooted a few times
[04:32] <DJ_Danni> yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer (IP: 212.30.223.9:8002) from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection timed out).)
[04:32] <nickrud> Arrick, for ssh it'd be sudo invoke-rc.d ssh stop
[04:32] <AnRkey> the_padawan, should be in the control center then
[04:32] <Pelo> Arrick,  is is customary to ask a specific questions and patiently wait for someone who knows about it to answer ,
[04:32] <AnRkey> the_padawan, make sure it's not muted, mine was
[04:32] <t0phr3> every gutsy CD that i have burned is corrupt in the same place everytime.  any ideas?
[04:32] <sssSCH> the backspace key doesn't work in screen. is it a bug, a user error, a feature??
[04:32] <Pici> Arrick: `sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop` and `killall irssi` -> provided that your user is running it, otherwise, `sudo killall irssi`
[04:32] <Arrick> Pelo, yeah, like last night and wait for 5 hours, repeating about every 20 minutes
[04:33] <DJ_Danni> Pelo?
[04:33] <Pelo> DJ_Danni,  the firewall is disabled ,   disable the nat in your router ,
[04:33] <Arrick> thanks though, its down i think
[04:33] <ltf> ufs was compiled with read-only support, can't be mounted as read-write
[04:33] <ubuntuNew> Can I turn Ubuntu into KUbuntu without burning the KUbuntu cd and reinstalling the os?:/
[04:33] <Pelo> DJ_Danni, do you know the meaning of the word patience ?
[04:33] <ltf> mount -t ufs -o -ro /dev/sdb1 /hot
[04:33] <nickrud> t0phr3, have you run an md5sum on the iso you downloaded
[04:33] <Pici> ubuntuNew: Sure.  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:33] <DJ_Danni> NO
[04:33] <ltf> i thought -ro meant read-only
[04:33] <ubuntuNew> Pici: Will it add stability issues?:/
[04:33] <WhiteRaven> Alright, I realized, to my chagrin, that I didn't have an extra IDE port in my PC to insert my second HDD with Linux to dual boot with XP.
[04:33] <gerro> t0phr3: don't use nero or any other commercial crap, give isorecorder a try if your on windows, if on linux use k3b or something. Also if it can't write to hard drive and instead opens it then use fdisk and reboot a few times
[04:33] <iMammal> how can I initiate the Restricted Devices Manager from a command prompt w/o and xorg server?
[04:34] <cappicard> how do I convert an uif file to iso?
[04:34] <mjancaitis> Pelo - it's an nVidia GeForceGo 6150 video set, and Conexant High-Definition Audio chipset, I don't know how useful that is
[04:34] <Pici> ubuntuNew: Nope.  Ubuntu and Kubuntu are the same OS, just with different default packages.
[04:34] <WhiteRaven> Is it a big deal to dual-boot Linux and Windows on two SATA Drives?
[04:34] <t0phr3> nickrud, yes and it is perfect every time
[04:34] <AnRkey> g'night all
[04:34] <AnRkey> sleep time
[04:34] <nickrud> ltf, -o ro
[04:34] <Pelo> Arrick,  the ppl in this channels are volunteers, we don'T know everything about everything, somethimes the ppl in don'T hvae the expertise t help you ,
[04:34] <ubuntuNew> Neato
[04:34] <Geek_> WhiteRaven: no, and if its set up properly, you can select boot order using bios ;)
[04:34] <gerro> WhiteRaven: yes because no one ever feels like helping you or knows what to do because the faqs are never updated. Find a wiki page that users can update and only then trust it with your hard drive
[04:34] <Arrick> Pelo, I realise that, I've been around about 5 years now
[04:34] <Arrick> thanks though
[04:34] <t0phr3> gerro, i don't, i right click in nautilus and click write to CD
[04:34] <juan> is somebody using gutsy with a laptop?
[04:35] <Pici> juan: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy questions please.
[04:35] <juan> thanks
[04:35] <gerro> tophr3: is it saving the iso file to cd? or applying the image to cd?
[04:35] <nickrud> ltf, man mount says that ufs systems sometimes need to be told what flavor you have, so try -o ufstype=44bsd,ro
[04:35] <WhiteRaven> So, I just do like I regularly would with IDEs, use the Ubuntu disk with GRUB as primary?
[04:35] <Epistax> Yo.  I don't see the latest version of Wine that came out very recently.  I am running AMD64 and their direct link is broken.  How do I convince synaptic that it's wrong in saying 0.9.43 is the latest version?
[04:35] <WhiteRaven> In the boot order, that is.
[04:35] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  ok here is my recommendation,   install the  i386 version,  here is why,  amd64 doesn'T have all the drivers for snazzy hardware yet , I'm thinking the generic drivers are causing a problem with your audio
[04:35] <Pelo> hyperbola,  please talk to me in the channel I don'T allow private msg
[04:36] <olrrai> hi
[04:36] <olrrai> can I use tune2fs -c 50 /dev/sda5 with sda5 mounted?
[04:36] <gerro> tophr3: last I checked nautilus was gnome file browser not a burning app so I doubt any bug testers found that out either :)
[04:36] <ubuntuNew> I receive an error related to the Human theme, shortly before I reach the Gnome login screen. The error says it cannot find a file handler for the .svg image format.
[04:36] <ltf> ufs_read_super: bad magic number
[04:36] <ubuntuNew> I tried to install librsvg but had no success.
[04:36] <mjancaitis> Ok Pelo, I'll go a-torrenting; is there any way I can find the right driver and insert it into the x64 Feisty if it works?
[04:37] <iMammal> is there an easy way to recommmpile the kernel is 7.0?
[04:37] <nickrud> ltf, then you can look around in     man mount, under mount options for ufs (it mentions 44bsd there)
[04:37] <ectospasm> does anyone have experience with bcm43xx-fwcutter?  I tried apt-get installing it, and it fails...
[04:37] <t0phr3> gerro, yes it is writing image to CD, i also used Infrarecorder with the same problem
[04:37] <gerro> ok my cd isn't showing up and I'm getting this error when trying to manually mount it "mount: special device /dev/cdrom does not exist"
[04:37] <Pici> !kernel | iMammal
[04:37] <ubotu> iMammal: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:37] <nickrud> gerro, I burn all my iso's with nautilus :)
[04:38] <Pelo> mjancaitis,  usualy this happens with the video card,  this is the first I've heard with the audio (and I'm just guessing) , the way to go about it is to use the alt cd and install the binaries after the installation,   this would not work in this case
[04:38] <gerro> tophr3: write at a slower speed?
[04:38] <nickrud> gerro, nice call :)
[04:38] <xerik> is there a easy way to tell if the console framebuffer is enabled?
[04:38] <nickrud> gerro, /dev/cdrom should be a symlink to the actual device; mine is /dev/hdb
[04:38] <t0phr3> gerro, tried that, wrote at 4x like forums said, no difference
[04:39] <Pelo> ectospasm,  try usingsynaptic to make sure you have the correct package name
[04:39] <iMammal> am am trying to install an nvidia fx 5200 driver and it wants some configured kernel sources. the unconfigure ones are missing a config.h file....
[04:39] <DJ_Danni> Hey can somone test for me http://212.30.223.9 Pelo i thang its woork
[04:39] <gerro> t0phr3: do lshw and get the info on your burning device see if you can find more information on it
[04:39] <DJ_Danni> mean http://212.30.223.9:8002
[04:39] <gerro> nickrud: any clue how to restore that symlink? before when I could read cds I couldn't burn them even though this is a cd burner
[04:39] <Pici> DJ_Danni: yes, it works.
[04:39] <nickrud> DJ_Danni, Donait.
[04:39] <olrrai> can I use tune2fs -c 50 /dev/sda5 with sda5 mounted?
[04:39] <DJ_Danni> Cool
[04:39] <DJ_Danni> It was in my Router
[04:39] <Pelo> DJ_Danni, I get a page asking me for moeny
[04:39] <ectospasm> Pelo:  No, it's correct.  It looks like it installs, then fails with "input file is either wrong or not supported"
[04:40] <DJ_Danni> no mean http://212.30.223.9:8002
[04:40] <t0phr3> gerro, i've actually tried 3 PCs, two at home and one at work
[04:40] <nickrud> gerro, it should be set up by udev when you boot; for now sudo ln -s /dev/<whatever> /dev/cdrom
[04:40] <Pelo> ectospasm,  try to find a deb package online
[04:40] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. How do I convert a IMG format file to ISO, or mount the IMG file itself on the filesystem?
[04:40] <iMammal> nvidia driver wants to compile some modules and it is missing a version.h file from my linux-source-2.6.20 pkg.... help?
[04:40] <ubuntuNew> Nautilus continuously restarts when it's in Browser mode. It seems to work fine in Spatial mode, however, it restarts when I try to open the Properties on a file.
[04:40] <nickrud> DJ_Danni, it's there

[04:41] <Optimus55> what plugin do i need to get totem to play Dvds?
[04:41] <Pelo> Shadow6363,  I think you cna just substitut iso for img
[04:41] <nickrud> DJ_Danni, now, install firestarter and use the policy to open only 8002
[04:41] <DJ_Danni> ok Thang you all. You are the BEST Support ewer.
[04:41] <DJ_Danni> it was just in my Router
[04:41] <mjancaitis> Pelo, thanks; torrenting now, we'll see what happens
[04:41] <Pelo> !dvd > Optimus55  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[04:41] <rafaelscj> where is located the kismet's configuration file?
[04:41] <gerro> nickrud: so perhaps a problem with udev?
[04:41] <Optimus55> it just says cannot play the media because i dont have the appropriate plugin
[04:41] <ectospasm> Pelo:  it's not the package.  fwcutter is trying to extract firmware from some file, and that file is either wrong or missing
[04:41] <DJ_Danni> Nowhay i hate firewalls
[04:41] <gerro> nickrud: I'm using the standard kernel right now but was using the low latency one for a while
[04:41] <Optimus55> thnx
[04:41] <DJ_Danni> i have ower 10.000 ports open
[04:41] <Pici> iMammal: Install linux-headers-`uname -a`
[04:41] <LaCtoSE> Optimus55, try ejecting the disc, then putting it back in
[04:42] <nickrud> gerro, that would be my suspicion. But I haven't looked at udev for a couple of years, since it started working :)
[04:42] <Pelo> ectospasm,  ah, sorry I don't know anyting about it then,
[04:42] <Pici> iMammal: er, not uname -a.  linux-headers-`uname -r`
[04:42] <nickrud> gerro, udev is user space, not kernel
[04:42] <DJ_Danni> ok Thang you all. You are the BEST Support ewer.
[04:42] <gerro> nickrud: yeah that the problem with getting support for some issues... things just work so no one bothers
[04:42] <glick> hey is there a way to have gnome recognize more then one language of words at the same time
[04:42] <glick> cause my settings are german but it flags all my english words as incorrect
[04:43] <DJ_Danni> I am gooing LIVE at my Radio
[04:43] <DJ_Danni> Now when the server's are woorking;)
[04:43] <gerro> glick: your typing on a gnome?....
[04:43] <glick> yeah im in gnome

[04:43] <t0phr3> gerro, crazy self
[04:43] <glick> gerro, all things in gnome have spell check integrated
[04:44] <navetz> how do i get spell check with open office?
[04:44] <gerro> glick: well last I checked some apps don't work that way like open office for one has fonts and spell check separated from linux system
[04:44] <gerro> tell glick I'm sure other applications do the same
[04:44] <t0phr3> anybody else having trouble burning gutsy to CD
[04:44] <glick> welll like xchat for instance or pidgin
[04:44] <glick> use the gnome system
[04:45] <navetz> iis there an open office channel
[04:45] <Pelo> t0phr3,  you better ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:45] <nickrud> gerro, the line is in /etc/udev.d/30-cdrom_id.rules
[04:45] <Pelo> navetz,   #openoffice.org
[04:45] <xjkx> I run samba and the machine is available on windows just like 5 minutes later, whats that?
[04:45] <gerro> glick: I'm not much of a fan of spellcheck seeing as it always says my name is misspelled and that I am pronouncing linux wrong :)
[04:45] <glick> maybe your name is mispelled
[04:45] <steven_> lol
[04:46] <gerro> glick: !yo mama
[04:46] <Pelo> xjkx, I would suspect it's the time it takes for windows to check the netwrok for new comps maybe ?
[04:46] <CorpseFeeder> did anyone reply to my question? I might have missed it....
[04:47] <gerro> glick: but seriously how does your desktop look in german? can you send me a pic?
[04:47] <Pelo> CorpseFeeder,  it's more likely we missed your question
[04:47] <xjkx> Pelo: but i can reboot and it won't affect the time its loaded
[04:47] <glick> gerro, it looks just like in english except all the words everywhere are in german
[04:47] <gerro> glick: does it do that annoying truncating on desktop icon titles?
[04:47] <glick> i dont have any desktop icons
[04:48] <Pelo> xjkx, windows check at boot and then periodicaly,  just a guess I don'T use windows much anymore ,  try asking in ##windows
[04:48] <rafaelscj> How do I to disable click on touch (touchpad)?
[04:48] <gerro> glick: that's odd what WM you using?
[04:48] <Pelo> CorpseFeeder, try asking again
[04:48] <glick> gnome
[04:48] <ubuntuNew> Is there a particular channel I should be in to ask Gnome-specific questions? Gnome appears to be broken on my Ubuntu system.
[04:48] <Pelo> rafaelscj, is there a touchpad dialog in admin or prefs maybe ?
[04:49] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,  ask here and we'll try
[04:49] <glick> where can i buy a german keyboard
[04:49] <ubuntuNew> It gives me an error every time it starts, just before I get to the welcome/login screen.
[04:49] <Pelo> glick,  germany ?
[04:49] <nomasteryoda> Pelo, install the gsynaptics
[04:49] <glick> other then germany
[04:49] <CorpseFeeder> I used source-o-matic thingy, but I am still getting "Package linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic is not available, but is referred to by another package." Do I need to tell source-o-matic that I am using feisty instead even though I am using edgy? I am trying to upgrade edgy to feisty. I tried the "upgrade" button in Software Update, but that just f'ed up my system.
[04:49] <rafaelscj> Pelo, what do you mean?
[04:49] <tonyyarusso> glick: Looks like your short answer is nobody knows at the moment.  I'm not sure, but perhaps you'd have better luck in #ubuntu-de, in hopes that there are other people using multiple languages at once there?
[04:49] <glick> maybe dell
[04:49] <nickrud> glick, you looking for spell checking for openoffice in german, right? I think you need myspell-de-de
[04:49] <Pelo> ubuntulog,  what error ?
[04:49] <ubuntuNew> Let me get the exact error, just a sec.
[04:49] <gerro> ubuntuNew: what sort of error?
[04:49] <Pelo> nomasteryoda,  tell  rafaelscj
[04:49] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, install gsynaptics
[04:49] <glick> nickrud, no i want gnome spell checking to do both english and german at the same time
[04:50] <nickrud> glick, and people say I want the moon :)
[04:50] <gerro> glick: what would you call that new spellcheck language of english and german? germish?
[04:50] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, i am going to do it
[04:50] <Pelo> glick,  in what app ?
[04:50] <Aishiko> my broken down Lappy can run the 7.04 disk but I was trying to do a disk check and it instead booted right into the liveCD part :(
[04:50] <nomasteryoda> k
[04:50] <glick> Pelo, in all my gnome aps
[04:50] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, thaks
[04:50] <glick> i have a german desktop  but i still communicate a lot in english
[04:51] <glick> i guess you cant have your cake and eat it too :(
[04:51] <gerro> glick: that's probably what you would do is take both dictionary databases they use and combine them into one, create a random name for it
[04:51] <ubuntuNew> There was an error loading theme Human. Couldn't recognize image format in file /..../bar_bottom.svg
[04:51] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, but many options are not in that gui ... you could google for a settings for synaptics touchpads xorg.conf ubuntu
[04:51] <Pelo> glick,  I think you can install all the myspell dict you want , and you can have more then one language supported,   using admin > language support
[04:51] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading for upgrading to feisty
[04:51] <ubuntuNew> Something to that extent, anyways.
[04:51] <tonyyarusso> Aishiko: I think it does that if you don't choose anything from the menu within 30 seconds.
[04:51] <gerro> glick: just combine the language files together name it germish or whatever you like
[04:52] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, sounds like that  particular file is corrupted,  did you change the background of your bottom panel ?
[04:52] <nomasteryoda> that would work... using cat
[04:52] <glick> hehe
[04:52] <ubuntuNew> No, it's the solid gray default, as far as I know
[04:52] <glick> hmm good idea
[04:52] <Aishiko> tonyyarusso I did tell it to check the disc! LOL and I just checked the iso I made it from it came out with no errors
[04:52] <nomasteryoda> backup the files first glick
[04:53] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,  try this   menu > system > prefs > theme,  select another theme, just for a test , the restart
[04:53] <tonyyarusso> Aishiko: Wait...you selected the integrity check and it booted normally anyway?  Odd.
[04:53] <ubuntuNew> hokey dokey.
[04:53] <ubuntuNew> brb
[04:53] <glick> or i can just deal with tit
[04:53] <Aishiko> tonyyarusso, I know I thinkit's odd and kinda funny I'm going to try doing it again
[04:54] <benzs_s> easy question; how do you edit repositories list
[04:55] <nickrud> benzs_s, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:55] <benzs_s> ty
[04:55] <astro76> benzs_s, system->administration->software sources for a gui, or gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:55] <nathan__> how do I remove the button in between minimize and maximize?
[04:55] <Aishiko> I think on monday I'll get my Lunix professor to help me install everything (you know sound, usb, and nics) that aren't working under 6.06, 6.10 (if he has a copy), or 7.04
[04:55] <Pelo> benzs_s, second way , if you just want to add extra repos  use the menu < system > admind > software source
[04:55] <Pelo> nathan__,  you don't
[04:55] <CorpseFeeder> nickrud: well, after using the "upgrade" button method, it just messed everything up, I no longer even have an "upgrade" button to click, so does this mean I have to use the "alternate CD/DVD" method to upgrade instead?
[04:56] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, I got the following error: you have to set 'SHMConfig' to true in xorg.conf
[04:56] <nathan__> Pelo: is there a way to edit the theme so it gets turned off?
[04:56] <emeriste> nickrud - You are good.
[04:56] <Pelo> !theme > nathan__  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[04:56] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, I didn't find this option in xorg.conf
[04:56] <ubuntuNew> Hrmm
[04:56] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, no, you can get feisty sources from source-o-matic, do sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade <-- repeat the last one at least once
[04:57] <nickrud> emeriste, only in my little field of view.
[04:57] <ubuntuNew> The theme for this user changed, but the default theme still seems to be Human, and also reports the same error.
[04:57] <nickrud> so, emeriste what did I do that was so awsome :)
[04:58] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, ok  do you get this msg before the login screen or after ?
[04:58] <nathan__> none of that had the information I am looking for; I'm wondering how to remove the button between minimize and maximize
[04:58] <nathan__> while keeping the same theme
[04:58] <inbitado34> i have an atlhon 64 but all packages or drives came as i386 but they all run well,  can i install a k7 kernel ??
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, yes you need to add that
[04:58] <CorpseFeeder> nickrud: that doesn't work - it just responds with "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> hang on
[04:58] <ubuntuNew> I get this message before the login screen.
[04:58] <maek> I keep getting "hardware error cpu 0: machine check exception: 4 bank 4: some numbers" and it tells me to run mcelog --ascii but when I do there is nothing there. I assume becuase I have to reboot to recover from the kernel panic that its clearing /dev/mcelog. any ideas?
[04:58] <Pelo> nathan__,   somewhere in those links are links to tutorials on making themes
[04:58] <sport> would running php w/ apache on ubuntu server be too offtopic ( do you know of a good apache irc?)
[04:59] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[04:59] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, are you sure you have feisty sources?
[04:59] <PwcrLinux> Pelo: oh boy, FF browser shut down by FP 9.. do you have a command line to stop "force" shut the FF down?
[04:59] <ubuntuNew> And then the login screen appears with a white theme, with a yellow flower hehe
[04:59] <glick> maek, sounds liek your shizzy is broke
[04:59] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,  ok lets try this,   menu > system > admin >` login screen > second tab I think ,  pick another login screen
[04:59] <gerro> nickrud: I marked udev for reinstall hope that does something :/
[04:59] <nickrud> gerro, that's something I do as a first cut. Luck
[04:59] <maek> glick: yeah, pretty much. now i gota figure out what part, mobo, cpu or rams
[04:59] <Pici> sport: It would be ontopic.  If you have a specific question about apache, #apache would be your best bet.
[04:59] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, on what section? "Configured Mouse"?
[04:59] <inbitado34> i have an atlhon 64 but all packages or drives came as i386 but they all run well,  can i install a k7 kernel ??
[05:00] <arun> i'm having a tough time switching from kubuntu to ubuntu
[05:00] <Pelo> PwcrLinux, alt-f2   xkill   the cursor will chage to a  skull , click on FF
[05:00] <CorpseFeeder> nickrud: I'm sure I don't have feisty sources. I have edgy sources.
[05:00] <gerro> nickrud: cutting what!? what am I cutting!? noooo my poor beautiful computer ;_;
[05:00] <jmonk82> i can't get my ati x1650 pro with beryl when i use the fglrx GL library i get nothing if i use the mesa i get a white screen even with beryl 0.20 (downgraded) any idea?
[05:00] <Pelo> arun, culture shock or  someting technical ?
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, you still here?
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35079/
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> that is my xorg.conf file
[05:00] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, if you want to upgrade to feisty, you need feisty sources. like i said:  you can get feisty sources from source-o-matic, do sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade <-- repeat the last one at least once
[05:00] <arun> Pelo: don't really know what it is, a bit of both i think
[05:01] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, okay
[05:01] <Pelo> jmonk82,  you need to ask in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl about this
[05:01] <ubuntuNew> Hokey dokey, brb.
[05:01] <Aishiko> i guess the disk has an error as it gives me some buffer errrors and then boots into the liveCD
[05:01] <jmonk82> pelo, thanks
[05:01] <gerro> nomasteryoda: dude your xorg.conf looks hot
[05:01] <nomasteryoda> why thanks
[05:01] <PwcrLinux> Pelo: on opened browser or just click the icon after I press the alt f2 key?
[05:01] <Pelo> arun,  then ask a specific question we'll try to answer
[05:01] <nomasteryoda> =D
[05:01] <arun> Pelo: I guess I'm just used to KDE apps, been using KDE for nearly 3 years now, never used GNOME before
[05:02] <arun> And KDE apps don't work so well with GNOME
[05:02] <gerro> nomasteryoda: what all these numbers mean? "modeline  "1400x1050@60" 122.61 1400 1488 1640 1880 1050 1051 1054 1087 -hsync +vsync"

[05:02] <ubuntuNew> Hrmm
[05:02] <gerro> nomasteryoda: damn that is awesome I'm going to go download gutsy cd for all my config files
[05:02] <nomasteryoda> gerro, allows me to switch modes easily
[05:02] <glick> :( i had a nvidia 8600 gts but i couldnt install it :(
[05:02] <Pelo> PwcrLinux,   type alt+f2,  get the command line lauicher,  type   sudo xkill ,   the mouse cursor will change to a skull   click it on the FF window
[05:02] <CorpseFeeder> nickrud: ah.. ok, for some reason I misread and thought you said you "can't" get feisty sources from source-o-matic.
[05:02] <glick> it physically didnt fit into my machine :(
[05:02] <inbitado34> push go to #compiz-fusion
[05:02] <Pelo> arun,  well if you have anyting specific you need to know just ask
[05:03] <nickrud> glick, you have a full partition?!!  sudo apt-get autoclean
[05:03] <naes> I need help installing Xnee, I can't seem to get it working at all.
[05:03] <Pelo> naes, how did you try to install it ?
[05:03] <glick> huh nickrud >?
[05:03] <PwcrLinux> Pelo: Oh, I will open FF browser then I will run a command..
[05:03] <nickrud> CorpseFeeder, ah, that make sense :)
[05:04] <Pelo> PwcrLinux, hold on
[05:04] <naes> I ran the config file
[05:04] <arun> Pelo: is there any way to make my KDE apps use the GTK theme? I installed kcontrol, and tweaked the fonts and some of the colours for kde apps, but kcontrol doesn't list the gtk themes, and the kde themes look quite odd with the other gnome stuff
[05:04] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, did you install something like synaptics driver?
[05:04] <push> inbitado34, thank
[05:04] <Pelo> PwcrLinux,  I though you needed to kill  ff  ?  state your problem again
[05:04] <nickrud> glick, a figure of speech, a good first move (like making the first cut while woodworking)
[05:04] <inbitado34> push, they know all about nvidia in there
[05:04] <slavik> nickrud: you in offtopic?
[05:04] <glick> hmm ive never heard of that figure of speech before

[05:05] <ubotu> Package/file synapctic does not exist in feisty
[05:05] <ubuntuNew> Is there a way I could replace the particular file with another?
[05:05] <ubuntuNew> Or?
[05:05] <Pelo> !prefix
[05:05] <ubotu> If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[05:05] <ubuntuNew> Hrmm
[05:05] <PwcrLinux> Pelo: FP 9 have problem again, the FF auto shut down unexpectly, I want to stop "force" shut down by the FF browser..

[05:06] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,  put your install cd in the cd driver , so a search on it for that file , and use the file from the cd to relace the one on the hdd
[05:06] <slavik> pieman: are you a noob or a troll?
[05:06] <pieman> ive burnt to disk but it wont read at startup
[05:06] <arun> Also, every time i reboot my computer, it fsck's my partitions, because 'they haven't been mounted for 247910 days'. but i just installed ubuntu a few hours ago, and the partitions are newly created. my clock isn't being reset. any ideas?

[05:06] <Pelo> naes,  no,  what is the full name of the file you are trying to install ?
[05:07] <slavik> mEck0: there is an SDL_image library, but ask in #sdl about it
[05:07] <push> in compiz-fusion?
[05:07] <pieman> my comp doesnt reconise the ubuntu disk on startup
[05:07] <naes> Pelo, it's called Xnee-3.01. It's a macro program

[05:07] <pieman> i did
[05:07] <Pelo> naes,  a macro prog for what exactly ?
[05:07] <pieman> #1 cdrom #2floppy
[05:08] <naes> Pelo, to record and playback mouse movements and clicks.
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, you see the synaptics section?
[05:08] <slavik> pieman: are you sure you burned it correctly? as in "burn image" not make a new data cd with the single iso file on it?
[05:08] <pieman> yes
[05:08] <pieman> i used nero to burn the iso to black cdr
[05:08] <Pelo> naes,  where did you get the file ?
[05:08] <arun> Pelo: alright, will do, thanks
[05:08] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, I saw, did you install a package?
[05:09] <arun> astro76: thanks for the qtgnome tip. do you use that yourself?
[05:09] <pieman> when i go on cd it has the ubuntu files
[05:09] <pieman> but it doesnt act as boot disk
[05:09] <naes> Pelo, I found it at http://www.gnu.org/software/xnee/
[05:09] <astro76> arun, I have not
[05:09] <inbitado34> how can i see if my  sata hd is working with DMA ???
[05:09] <slavik> pieman: can you boot from a windows CD?
[05:09] <pieman> i click on setup the the splach screen comes up
[05:09] <Pie-rate> why does "apt-get install sun-java6-jdk" install GCJ and GIJ instead of the actual sun java jre and jdk? it doesn't compile/run my program correctly.
[05:09] <Pie-rate> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: AsteroidsMain at gnu.java.lang.MainThread.run(libgcj.so.70)
[05:09] <pieman> then nothing happens after that
[05:10] <mudkipdesu> if i install the windows version of firefox on ubuntu with the windows flash plugin for firefox, will it work on ubuntu feisty amd64 version?
[05:10] <NoobSauce> anyone knows a good video camera for ubuntu? One that 'just works' out of the box? I don't care about cheapest, best quality, etc... just anyone who has a personal experience with a specific video camera model that did work
[05:10] <Pelo> naes, hold on , checking
[05:10] <slavik> Pie-rate: because after you isntall the java jdk, you have to switch to it ... lookup java alternatives
[05:10] <arun> astro76: what do you use to make kde apps fit in better
[05:10] <pieman> when i click on start,exe it comes up with the splash sceen then closes after a few secs

[05:11] <rafaelscj> nomasteryoda, are there two identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"?
[05:11] <slavik> mudkipdesu: no, windows version of firefox will not run on linux
[05:11] <Aishiko> Dang my laptop that I'm replacing, which is as old as my desktop's hardware, everything works! but I can't get 3 things working on my desktop.  Sigh
[05:11] <astro76> arun, I'm not using too many at the moment so it hasn't been an issue lately
[05:11] <Pelo> naes,  ok I assume no one told you about synaptic yet,  it's a package manager for ubuntu ,  much easier to install stuff with it then anyother way,   xnee is in there I justr checked,     menu > sysetm > admin > synaptic package manager , use the search feature
[05:11] <mudkipdesu> slavik : not even with wine?
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> rafaelscj, nope... i just have one small block that is commented out... its with the # characters
[05:11] <pieman> when i click on start,exe it comes up with the splash sceen then closes after a few secs, does anyone know what do to ?
[05:11] <naes> Pelo, I realize it's there but it's very outdated.
[05:11] <astro76> arun, major one is kdevelop, and I think they look fine actually ;)
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> Identifier	"Synaptics Touchpad"
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> 	Driver		"synaptics"
[05:11] <pieman> it doesnt reconise at startup either

[05:20] <nomasteryoda> inbitado34, it should be using dma
[05:20] <arun> another thing.. sometimes when i restart x, my cursor seems to disappear.. i mean i know it's there because if i move it buttons, etc get highlighted, but i just cant see the cursor. why does this happen?
[05:20] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: i know apache it's running, but not sure if sendmail(), it is working, so i am wondering if there is any way to check that
[05:20] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq I mean that your question could encompass a million possiblilties...have you checked /var/log/mail.log?
[05:21] <Fezzler> I've installed a new application, Minicom, but it doesn't appear in Applications????
[05:21] <Aishiko> I just foudn the drivers for my PCI expantion card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:21] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq ps aux | grep sendmail
[05:21] <Downix> ok, it refuses to see the disk I have in my CD-ROM
[05:21] <inbitado34> nomasteryoda, is not using, try to activate, but it says:
[05:21] <inbitado34> setting using_dma to 1 (on)
[05:21] <inbitado34>  HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[05:21] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq netstat -an | grep 25
[05:21] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: I found, the ubuntu have opera deb file
[05:21] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq mailq
[05:21] <nomasteryoda> inbitado34, mine did too
[05:22] <Downix> is there any trick to mounting a DVD in Ubuntu?
[05:22] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, using adept_manager or aptitude or synaptics installer?
[05:22] <nomasteryoda> Downix, nope
[05:22] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq where did you find the php code that sends the mail...are you sure it is correct
[05:22] <dfwlinuxguy> ?
[05:22] <inbitado34> nomasteryoda, then i can leave it without ??
[05:22] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: opera site
[05:22] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: i'm pretty sure, i've used that before
[05:22] <nomasteryoda> inbitado34, that should work without DMA on...
[05:22] <Downix> I don't see any /dev/hdc which is normally where I'd mount it from
[05:22] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq can you receive mail otherwise?
[05:22] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: yeah,
[05:23] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: I searched on browser "Opera Ubuntu Linux" till I found the ubuntu opera deb file
[05:23] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: ok, i'll try to make it easy to explain
[05:23] <nomasteryoda> Downix, if it has data it will be magically automouted
[05:23] <Downix> syste says no such devce
[05:23] <Aishiko> brb
[05:23] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, that is what you install if you want Opera
[05:23] <Downix> but the disk works in other systems
[05:23] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: mail("benavides86@gmail.com", "Test", "test test test");
[05:23] <nomasteryoda> via your package manager PwcrLinux
[05:23] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: yes, should I click deb file?
[05:23] <Downix> it's my Paint Shop Pro X CD
[05:23] <Downix> figured a good test
[05:24] <nickrud> nomasteryoda, iirc opera's in the feisty-commercial repo
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> yes
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> i know
[05:24] <nickrud> oh
[05:24] <nickrud> :O
[05:24] <flemnos> you'd think that "video responses" would have to relate to the video they respond to.
[05:24] <inbitado34> nomasteryoda, how about 32 bit transfers capability for sata hd's ??
[05:24] <matt2292> How can i control my cirsor with my keyboard arrow keys? I know you can do this in windows using the number pad.
[05:24] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: i am using that, but i'm not sure why i am not receiving any mail, and i've tested that before, i'm sure there is no problems with any filter of gmail, 'cause ive received that before
[05:24] <matt2292> *cursor
[05:24] <rafaelscj> astro76, nomasteryoda, thanks
[05:24] <nomasteryoda> np
[05:25] <kittu-> hi
[05:25] <Aishiko> back
[05:25] <kittu-> is there a channel for mplayer
[05:25] <nickrud> matt2292, it's under system->prefs->assistive technologies or so
[05:25] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: btw, sorry for my english i'm just learning
[05:25] <Fezzler> I installed "minicom" using Synaptic PM but yet the program doesn't appear in the Applications menu?
[05:25] <nickrud> matt2292, called mousekeys, I think
[05:25] <rafaelscj> Now Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[05:25] <nomasteryoda> inbitado34, if you use sdparm you can change some settings  such as DMA, etc...
[05:25] <Bucketface> Uh...Ubuntu died completely a minute ago, it stopped, froze, and I got a black screen...
[05:25] <nickrud> Fezzler, no, it's a terminal program. call it from inside a terminal
[05:26] <yetengji> hi
[05:26] <Bucketface> What happened?
[05:26] <matt2292> ok thanks
[05:26] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq it's ok...have you confirmed that you have sendmail running?
[05:26] <Downix> ok, this is confusing
[05:26] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq netstat -an | grep 25
[05:26] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq ps auxwww | grep sendmail
[05:26] <Fezzler> Nickrud: Thanks.  I'll try.  Where might it be located?
[05:26] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: I am on the SPM, searched opera which file will be?
[05:26] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy with the first one appears listening an connected
[05:27] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq what errors if any do you see in /var/log/mail.log
[05:27] <yetengji> can anyone help me with xorg?
[05:27] <nickrud> Fezzler, apps->accessories->terminal ; type minicom :)
[05:27] <Downix> ok, it mounted my ubuntu CD
[05:27] <Downix> so that means an issue with the CD-ROM itself, phew!
[05:27] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, in the ubuntu-commercial repositories in your synaptics program, search Opera and install that
[05:27] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: actually that file it's empty
[05:27] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: it doesn't shows any log
[05:28] <bbengs> can anybody help with a wifi wpa issue?
[05:28] <inbitado34> nomasteryoda, seem it doesn't work here sdparm only hdparm
[05:28] <nomasteryoda> install that package inbitado34
[05:28] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy:  ps auxwww | grep sendmail
[05:28] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq then there is a problem with sendmail
[05:28] <niuq> zero@zero-laptop:/etc/apache2$  ps auxwww | grep sendmail
[05:28] <niuq> zero     16348  0.0  0.0   2880   748 pts/0    R+   21:28   0:00 grep sendmail

[05:28] <bbengs> wifi wpa help needed
[05:28] <nickrud> Fezzler, don't for get to do clt-alt z o to configure the serial port first
[05:29] <mattg> let's hear it, bbengs
[05:29] <bbengs> new to ubuntu and want to keep using it
[05:29] <bbengs> thanks mattg
[05:29] <bbengs> okay
[05:29] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: none in there, I am still on breezy ubuntu
[05:29] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq sendmail is not running is it?
[05:29] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy:  you want me to send you the outputs of the command that you just told me?
[05:29] <bbengs> i just can't get wpa to show in my network manager
[05:29] <computer> are there any builds of linux that only support 1 user who is admin?
[05:29] <ubuntuNew> Hrmmm
[05:29] <nomasteryoda> oh, you should upgrade PwcrLinux
[05:29] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq i don't run sendmail....I use postfix so that wouldn't be any help to you
[05:29] <mattg> what network manager are you using?
[05:30] <nickrud> computer, none that should be allowed to connect to the internet
[05:30] <ubuntuNew> Still no luck locating the image. Maybe it's stored inside an archive of some sort?
[05:30] <bbengs> the built in version in feisty fawn
[05:30] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: but, I found ubuntu opera deb file in the search on the browsr
[05:30] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: mmmm
[05:30] <bbengs> mattg, anyway to go to a private room?
[05:30] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq if /var/log/mail.log is empty...sendmail is not running
[05:30] <bbengs> new to irc also
[05:30] <mattg> no.  bbengs, click on it and hit manual configuration
[05:30] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: zero@zero-laptop:/etc/apache2$ ps aux | grep sendmail
[05:30] <niuq> zero     16427  0.0  0.0   2880   748 pts/0    R+   21:30   0:00 grep sendmail
[05:30] <bbengs> did, and only wep is showing
[05:30] <PwcrLinux> brb
[05:31] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, if it is designed for breezy, then you can use it, but it will fail most likely if not setup for breezy's file system
[05:31] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq sendmail is not running
[05:31] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: and you know how can i run it?
[05:31] <mattg> let me check stuff out, bbengs
[05:31] <bbengs> thanks
[05:31] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq well you have to configure it for your installation and run /etc/init.d/sendmail start
[05:31] <mattg> bbengs:  what is the driver your network manager is using?
[05:32] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: im actually trying that but sedmail doesn't appears in that directory
[05:32] <bbengs> ndiswrapper
[05:32] <computer> what class are modules in C++
[05:32] <SystemOverload> Hey guys, I installed winxp for dual boot and I need to config a bootloader.
[05:32] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq are you sure it's installed?
[05:32] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: yes, it's there on the opera site, ticked in already
[05:32] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq apt-cache search sendmail
[05:32] <SystemOverload> I have ubuntu installed already.
[05:32] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, go for it
[05:32] <SystemOverload> I had ubuntu, then installed winxp.
[05:32] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: ermm i thought it was installed when i installed apache
[05:32] <mattg> bbengs: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31418

[05:33] <Monkeycracks> Anyone mind helping me get my Radeon 9250 drivers set up?

[05:33] <dfwlinuxguy> niuq when I asked you if you were receiving mail otherwise...you said yes...that is not correct right
[05:33] <dfwlinuxguy> ?

[05:38] <ubuntuNew> ... Thanks for nothing, apt-get!
[05:38] <PwcrLinux> nomasteryoda: okay
[05:38] <ubuntuNew> :(
[05:38] <nomasteryoda> replace filename
[05:38] <nomasteryoda> PwcrLinux, but promise us you will upgrade soon?

[05:47] <kefka> jacob: try the command "btdownload file.torrent
[05:48] <Fezzler> nickrud: I thought minicom would be they way to go
[05:48] <nickrud> Fezzler, you have ttyUSB0 up and running, right? If so, in minicom, ctl-a z o and set the serial port
[05:48] <jacob> kefka doesn't work
[05:48] <Elagabalus> I know it means trouble, but is it *possible* to get a sound blaster X-Fi working under linux or just no chance whatsoever?
[05:48] <nickrud> and use kermit protocol

[05:49] <Bulazeem> anyone know why my monitor doesnt go active until ubuntu starts?  just started doing this like 2 days ago and if i wanted to get to my bios i wouldnt be able to see anything =(
[05:50] <niuq> !pastebin
[05:50] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:50] <corentin> rafaelscj: it is a wireless card ?
[05:50] <nickrud> Fezzler, good question
[05:50] <rafaelscj> corentin, yes
[05:50] <salah_> dfwlinuxguy, any ideas?
[05:51] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: check this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35080/       i think i'm having troubles, and well now i am sure it's installed
[05:52] <vexati0n> i started "movie player" and put it into fullscreen yesterday... and now every time i start it, it goes into fullscreen, and i can't get out of fullscreen
[05:52] <corentin> rafaelscj: it doesn't look like a wireless card ... could you pastebin the output of lspci please ?
[05:52] <jacob> anybody knows how to install rpm files in ubuntu?
[05:52] <astro76> vexati0n, double-clicking doesn't take it out of full screen?
[05:52] <astro76> !rpm | jacob
[05:52] <ubotu> jacob: 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)
[05:52] <Pelo> Bulazeem,  old crt ? might just need time to warm up
[05:52] <voradams> Anyone able to help with a knetworkmanager wpa question?
[05:52] <astro76> jacob, it really should be avoided
[05:52] <_lordtolstoi> hou can i get login root on mi ubuntu server ?
[05:53] <salah_> dfwlinuxguy, forget it, my computer is so cool that is have a bluetooth button and drivers for it, but no bluetooth hardware... it is a acer aspire 5040 just so you and others know
[05:53] <astro76> !root | _lordtolstoi
[05:53] <ubotu> _lordtolstoi: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:53] <jacob> astroo76 ah ok thx
[05:53] <Pelo> voradams,  #kubuntu is a better place to ask about kde stuff
[05:53] <vexati0n> astro76: no. if i do that, the menubar and the controls show up (like a window maximized with no borders) but i can't resize the window
[05:53] <bbengs> mattg, u there?
[05:53] <Bulazeem> its a dell2005FPW.  its been turning on at startup ever since i got it like 1 year ago.  past 2 days though it wont turn on until im at the login screen of my operating system =/
[05:53] <rafaelscj> corentin, sorry, you're right
[05:53] <voradams> lordtolstoi: you dont, sudo under your main user logon will give you root provalages
[05:53] <Bulazeem> it just has an orange light
[05:53] <rafaelscj> corentin, wait please
[05:54] <mattg> bbengs just got back
[05:54] <jacob> astro76 can you help me with a problem
[05:54] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: any idea?
[05:54] <bbengs> i think my wpa_supplicant is hosed
[05:54] <astro76> vexati0n, yeah that's still full screen mode, just moving the mouse should show the controls. Double clicking should take it out, also there should be a button in the top right when you move the mouse for fullscreen mode
[05:54] <corentin> rafaelscj: :)
[05:54] <Pelo> Bulazeem, orange light ?
[05:54] <astro76> jacob, maybe, what's the problem? :)
[05:54] <mattg> bbengs i'm not an expert with wpa, so im stumped
[05:55] <Bulazeem> Pelo: yes, the power button for my monitor stays orange and then when i get to the operating system login screen it goes green and shows a picture.
[05:55] <bbengs> k, well thanks
[05:55] <ubuntuNew> I'm using the Synaptic Package Manager to install Kubuntu-desktop....
[05:55] <mattg> yup bbengs
[05:55] <bbengs> any WPA experts out there???????????????????????????
[05:55] <jacob> astro76 i installed bittorrent, the deb version, it seems like i installed correctly but i can't find the program
[05:55] <vexati0n> astro76: nevermind, i fixed it. it was a maximized window, but i couldn't resize in compiz. had to kill compiz and resize with metacity and restart compiz
[05:55] <rafaelscj> corentin, 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[05:55] <ubuntuNew> However, it decided it's wise to remove ubuntu-desktop and restricted-manager before it installed Kubuntu-desktop.
[05:55] <ubuntuNew> I hope that doesn't break my proprietary ATI drivers (fglrx.)
[05:55] <rafaelscj> corentin, I think that the name is "i810"
[05:55] <jacob> astro76 http://www.bittorrent.com/download/complete?redirect=R9UP_K_klKCubxcAoTV3uPGO-XBKa6gcGFBx9tibzRzWJmWRznma1fdRQDNwu_Hhha8pdcn2W12NCQ4NkgKE4oSosr17ZyoWrRc2KdGGPpwY0WqLtK03e06UwNOjqwnFET5NTiknk6HKJjGPbX9cyQ%3D%3D
[05:55] <ubuntuNew> Along with the fglrx DRI kernel module:/
[05:56] <corentin> rafaelscj: here is the official home page of your driver => http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/
[05:56] <astro76> jacob, yewww :p
[05:56] <bastid_raZor> tinyurl.com is there for a reason?
[05:56] <rafaelscj> corentin, thanks
[05:56] <corentin> rafaelscj: but if I remember well it's pretty easy to get it working with ubuntu
[05:56] <Pelo> Bulazeem, I'd suspect a problem with the monitor , try this  shutdown the os (properly) then turn off the comp and the monitor , wait a few minutes and then turn the monitor on and then the comptuer
[05:56] <arun> sometimes when i restart x, my cursor seems to disappear.. i mean i know it's there because if i move it buttons, etc get highlighted, but i just cant see the cursor. why does this happen?
[05:57] <corentin> rafaelscj: try "sudo modprobe ipw3945"
[05:57] <niuq> i need help with sendmail, this is the log, if it's useful     http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35080/
[05:57] <Pelo> Bulazeem, I'M just thinking that the monitor takes too long a time to leave stanby mode
[05:57] <astro76> jacob, try dpkg -L PACKAGENAME | grep bin
[05:57] <niuq> i am using apache2, and trying to sendmail with mail(); function
[05:57] <Bulazeem> Pelo, its not the monitor.  i got worried that it might be broken when it first happend so i just plugged it into the computer next to me
[05:57] <jacob> astro76 in the command line?
[05:57] <rafaelscj> corentin, It's working, I only want to know the name of the module
[05:57] <bastid_raZor> pelo, Bulazeem i had the same issue a few months ago.. never did figure out why it happened or how to fix it. it was an OLD box that needed replacing
[05:57] <astro76> jacob, yes
[05:57] <rafaelscj> corentin, ipq3945?
[05:58] <astro76> jacob, I wonder if this might be problematic since the default bittorrent client that is installed with Ubuntu, it's package name is also bittorrent
[05:58] <corentin> rafaelscj: *w
[05:58] <nickrud> Fezzler, I know this can be done; I don't think you even need to worry about the modem part, just start kermit at each end
[05:58] <Pelo> Bulazeem,  anyway you can try another monitor on the same box ?
[05:58] <rafaelscj> corentin, do know how to configure kismet?
[05:58] <Bulazeem> sure the other computer has a cruddy crt.  ill try that one
[05:58] <Fezzler> nickrud: Switched to program called "cutecom" easier to use
[05:58] <astro76> jacob, even with .deb's that aren't available in the repos, they should still be designed for your particular version of Ubuntu
[05:58] <corentin> rafaelscj: yes
[05:59] <nickrud> Fezzler, working then?
[05:59] <jacob> astro76 what do i put in PAKAGENAME, the name of the downloaded file, do i need to be in the directory where i put the downloaded file at?
[05:59] <lgc> Is there a way to temporarily hide all the icons on my desktop?
[05:59] <Pelo> Bulazeem,  some bios have options for stanby suspend of monitors in them , try turning those off if you have tem
[05:59] <Bulazeem> Pelo: does it matter that i am using a white connector cable for my monitor instead of the normal blue one.  sorry i forget what the white one is called
[05:59] <rafaelscj> corentin, give me the line > source . please
[05:59] <corentin> rafaelscj: add this line to your kismet.conf => source=ipw3945,eth1,eth1
[05:59] <Pelo> lgc,  gconf-editor   /app/nautilus/desktiop
[06:00] <Pelo> Bulazeem, I wouldn'T know
[06:00] <nickrud> Fezzler, if not, this might: http://www.planetnz.com/palmheads/tandy.php?pg=desklink#desklink
[06:00] <jacob> astro76 can you be a bit more descriptive cause i'm new at ubuntu
[06:00] <eubey> anybody here running ubuntu on a tablet?
[06:00] <rafaelscj> corentin, okay, I will test now
[06:00] <astro76> jacob, the packagename of their .deb looks to be bittorrent, but the built in bittorrent client has the same packagename, so I'm not sure how that's going to work
[06:00] <corentin> rafaelscj: fyi: source=<driver><iface><whatEverYouWant>
[06:00] <lgc> Pelo, thanks. Let me try that, but I'm rather looking for a keystroke combination, like CTRL-ALT-d to hide windows.
[06:01] <Bulazeem> Pelo: k.  i am going to try and check my bios.  hopefull when i get into my bios the monitor will come back out of standby
[06:01] <Fezzler> Thanks nickrud: Tried successfull to use DLPLUS for linux.  I had it working then not.  Couldn't figure it ot
[06:01] <Pelo> lgc,  do a search for bosskey
[06:01] <rafaelscj> corentin, It's working, thank you
[06:01] <Pelo> Bulazeem, best of luck
[06:02] <Bucketface> Uh
[06:02] <corentin> lgc: you just have to write a script that hides your icons ... then you can bind it to a keystroke
[06:02] <Bucketface> Pelo
[06:02] <corentin> rafaelscj: :)
[06:02] <Aishiko> say anyone here know anything about Southbridge support in Ubuntu?
[06:02] <Bucketface> If that worked, then you now have Ndiswrapper installed. Now we need to install the drivers. In a terminal, go to the directory where you have the R151517.EXE file:unzip -a R151517.EXE
[06:02] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: ohh well, it worked, thank you so much!
[06:02] <jacob> astro76 it says the package is not installed
[06:02] <lgc> Pelo, corentin, thanks.
[06:02] <rafaelscj> corentin, hauHUAHUAhu
[06:02] <niuq> dfwlinuxguy: with a big retard, but it worked well
[06:02] <nickrud> Fezzler, good luck, I loved that little machine. I had to cart around an old compaq luggable for a couple years just for a terminal, then I got that little beauty.
[06:02] <Bucketface> Says it can't find the end of the file or it is not a zip file
[06:03] <corentin> Could anybody help with redirecting the output of "osd_cat" to another display please ?
[06:03] <corentin> rafaelscj: already ??

[06:07] <corentin> bbengs: what is the problem ?
[06:07] <astro76> jacob, also the one you downloaded, it's pretty pointless except to buy stuff now that they've gone all commercial
[06:07] <ubuntuNew> I can't seem to get AIGLX working, though.
[06:07] <astro76> jacob, that's what I use, if you point it to the directory where the download was, it will resume

[06:19] <Pelo> Bucketface,  I'm not realy anygood with  ndiswrapper , I 've never had to use it ,see if you can'T unpack the driver or someting to get an .inf file out of it
[06:19] <iMammal> I tried to get it froom download.nvidia.com, they had a binary installer... but it couln't compile for my kernel, so I tried the apt-get install nvidia-glx thing.... did I miss a step?

[06:19] <TylerJGillies> corentin: thnx
[06:20] <steve001hsd> TylerJGillies thnx
[06:20] <corentin> TylerJGillies: Oops first find the machine on your network with "nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24"
[06:20] <Pelo> iMammal,  I think you first need the nvidia driver to runnvidia-glx on it
[06:20] <iMammal> well, I don't have X at all right now. is there a terminal way of doing that?

[06:22] <Pelo> ubuntulog, open the system monitor ( in the admin menu) sort by name , see how many nautilus you hve running , kill them all
[06:23] <corentin> ubuntuNew: ok I thougt you were trying to use it as a web browser ^^
[06:23] <ubuntuNew> corentin: Sorry, I should say I dont' believe that it is. It may very well be a web browser, but I only know it as a file browser hehe.
[06:23] <Bucketface> Pelo, whereabouts in my windows drive would the thing be, I have gone Dell < Drivers < then numbres D;?
[06:23] <ubuntuNew> corentin: Ah, I see;)

[06:24] <corentin> TylerJGillies: why do you want to do this ?
[06:24] <bbeng1> corentin, what does pastebin min?
[06:24] <TylerJGillies> corentin: do what? find the printer?
[06:24] <astro76> nj786, press alt+f2 and type foobillard

[06:25] <benzs_s> pokemons?
[06:25] <nj786> astro76: nothing.
[06:25] <Pelo> ubuntulog,  try again
[06:25] <corentin> TylerJGillies: no switch workspace
[06:25] <astro76> nj786, type it in a terminal
[06:25] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,  I mean try starting nautilus again see if it works better
[06:25] <corentin> bbeng1: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[06:26] <TylerJGillies> corentin: because im tired of clicking on the icon and i need a keyboard shortcut
[06:26] <astro76> nj786, it should either run, or give you a message saying it's not installed and telling you how to install it
[06:26] <mattg> > How do I get my UDF dvds to mount?!?!
[06:26] <nj786> astro76: yes, it started up but why is it not showing it under games app?
[06:26] <Pelo> !pastebin | bbeng1
[06:26] <ubotu> bbeng1: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:26] <killroy_2> I need help burning a video dvd.  What channel is best to discuss this?
[06:26] <ubuntuNew> Well, I restarted it and when trying to enter a folder, Nautilus' window disappeared and didn't reappear.
[06:26] <astro76> nj786, because it's foobillard.desktop file needs to be fixed by the package maintainer (or anyone else ;) )
[06:27] <Bucketface> Pelo, found it from linux.
[06:27] <terapicodave> TylerJGillies: use ctrl-alt and an arrow
[06:27] <steve001hsd> is there a torrent for the alternate cd image?
[06:27] <TylerJGillies> terapicodave: sweet, thnx!
[06:27] <astro76> nj786, I'm assuming, there are a couple of packages like that
[06:27] <Pelo> bullgard4, try asking in ##linux  that question is abit over the skill level of this channel
[06:27] <Pelo> Bucketface,  congrats
[06:27] <TylerJGillies> terapicodave: is there a control dialog to change it?
[06:27] <nj786> astro76: probably
[06:27] <ubuntuNew> Also, after that, System Monitor shows no Nautilus process.
[06:27] <Bucketface> Score
[06:27] <Bucketface> This is the write driver.
[06:27] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, I assumed you tried rebooting ?
[06:27] <terapicodave> TylerJGillies: not sure about that...but this is one feature I miss when using the other OS
[06:27] <bbeng1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35084/
[06:27] <Dabbill> Hi all, new to ubuntu... i have haveing problems getting ubuntu to install, i just downloaded the install disc and i am at the ubuntu@ubuntu comand line, cant get x to start... or is there a command line install?
[06:28] <Bucketface> right*
[06:28] <Pelo> bbeng1,  it helps us keep up if you type the nick of the person you are talking to in each line,
[06:28] <TylerJGillies> Dabbill: you boot from the CD?
[06:28] <nj786> astro76: lol this game is nothing like it shows on the screenshots
[06:28] <corentin> TylerJGillies: maybe not exactly what you want: alt+f w
[06:28] <astro76> nj786, hehe
[06:28] <Dabbill> TylerJGillies, yes in safe graphics mode
[06:29] <nj786> astro76: ubuntu games do suck
[06:29] <bbeng1> corentin,   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35084/
[06:29] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, mind using my nick in each line when you talk to me ?
[06:29] <astro76> nj786, it's a linux game
[06:29] <DARKGuy> hey guys, what is the best kernel to use with an Averatec 5400 Series laptop using a Mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP -M Processor 2800+ ?
[06:29] <richardjames> hello, i'm new to linux
[06:29] <Pelo> nj786, linux is not a game platform yet
[06:29] <ubuntuNew> Pelo: Hokey dokey. No, I didn't try rebooting after killing all Nautilus process'
[06:29] <nj786> astro76: srry, linux games suck
[06:29] <TylerJGillies> Dabbill: x should start with first option
[06:29] <Pelo> richardjames, welcome to the madhouse
[06:29] <richardjames> i heard that sudo rm -rf /  is the first thing you need to do when you setup a new linux system, right?
[06:29] <ubuntuNew> Pelo: I have, however, rebooted since the problem started.
[06:29] <bbeng1> Pelo, please make it sugar
[06:29] <Taladan> richardjames: no
[06:30] <Pelo> ubuntuNew,that's what I meant
[06:30] <HazTheSpaz> Hey all, does anyone know how to get my Streaming Video running?
[06:30] <Bucketface> Pelo, said it was already a driver, but in the wireless windows drivers manager thing where I was trying to install it from, it said no wai~!~
[06:30] <slew> i dont think all linux games suck. depends on what type of games you like to play
[06:30] <Taladan> richardjames: unless you want to destroy your filesystem.
[06:30] <richardjames> Taladan, so rm -rf / isn't what I should add to my crontab to run every day?
[06:30] <DARKGuy> come on, Linux games rock... well I like Regnum and Nexuiz and Open Arena... but you can play good games too, I play World of Warcraft, Diablo II, Quake 4 / Doom 3, NFS series...
[06:30] <richardjames> ohh nooes!!1111
[06:30] <TylerJGillies> corentin: that doesn't do anything
[06:30] <corentin> bbeng1: seems good ...
[06:30] <richardjames> <--- asshole Taladan
[06:30] <Dabbill> TylerJGillies, its an older dell that has onboard video but i have a tnt2 in there cause the onboard dont work right, if i try to start it with the first option it defaults to the onboard video and goes alll screwie
[06:30] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, , I've had a similar problem in the past,  I ended up having to clean install
[06:30] <richardjames> >:)
[06:30] <benzs_s> i find games work fine on linux
[06:30] <Taladan> mhm.
[06:30] <richardjames> just messing Taladan
[06:30] <corentin> TylerJGillies: you where speaking about eclipse right ?
[06:30] <benzs_s> the main problem for me is wireless and sound
[06:30] <bbeng1> corentin, yea,
[06:30] <benzs_s> teamspeak just will not work -_-
[06:30] <strabes> hey, I just upgraded to gutsy tribe 5 and had to recompile alsa to get sound working, but it's a bit crackly now. Any ideas?
[06:30] <TylerJGillies> corentin: gnome
[06:30] <DARKGuy> I've had Driver to work in WINE too, which I couldn't in XP ;)
[06:30] <corentin> TylerJGillies: sorry
[06:30] <HazTheSpaz> Hey all, does anyone know how to get my Streaming Video running?
[06:31] <bbeng1> corentin, just not sure why options for wpa are not showing up in my network manager
[06:31] <ubuntuNew> Pelo: I had been considering a clean install. A lot of things aren't working hehe:/
[06:31] <DARKGuy> hey guys, what is the best kernel to use with an Averatec 5400 Series laptop using a Mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP -M Processor 2800+ ?
[06:31] <TylerJGillies> corentin: no worries
[06:31] <corentin> bbeng1: which network manager are you using ?
[06:31] <Pelo> Bucketface,  you need to copy the driver to the ubuntu partiton to make sure ndiswrapper can read/write to it
[06:31] <ubuntuNew> Pelo: But... I'm just so excited that I've finally managed to get my video card drivers installed as well as getting the DRI working hehe
[06:31] <bbeng1> corentin, default with fisty faun
[06:31] <TylerJGillies> Dabbill: might search forums for boot option to disable onboard
[06:32] <EsoCyn> I was wondering if I could get any help or a link or something to help me with RealPlayer? I cannot get the sound to work.
[06:32] <Pelo> DARKGuy,  we recommend the x86 version
[06:32] <bbeng1> corentin, networkmanager applet 0.6.4
[06:32] <TylerJGillies> Dabbill: or try and disable in BIOS
[06:32] <Dabbill> TylerJGillies, in BIOS only have option for on or auto :(
[06:32] <corentin> bbeng1: try with wifi-radar and this doc => https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[06:32] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, I know it sucks but now you know how to do it ,you'll get it done much quicker
[06:32] <ubuntuNew> haha, yea probably.
[06:32] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, think of your first install as a dry run
[06:32] <HazTheSpaz> I cant get my streaming video to work....it just wont run
[06:33] <bbeng1> corentin, i have wifi-radar also
[06:33] <bbeng1> let me look at it again
[06:33] <Pelo> HazTheSpaz, streaming from where ?
[06:33] <TylerJGillies> the first time i installed ubuntu i figured out my cdrom drive was fscked up
[06:33] <HazTheSpaz> Gametrailers .com
[06:33] <TylerJGillies> bad time to figure it out
[06:33] <ubuntuNew> hehe
[06:33] <Pelo> HazTheSpaz,  wmv ?
[06:33] <leo_rockw> hello everyone
[06:33] <HazTheSpaz> Well Flash, wmv, and Quicktime all wont work
[06:34] <EsoCyn> Is there anything to help me with the no-sound on RealPlayer problem? I tried Googling and navigating the Ubuntu site but I couldn't find something.
[06:34] <EsoCyn> anything*, I mean
[06:34] <Pelo> HazTheSpaz,  terminal       sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla && sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[06:34] <Pelo> HazTheSpaz,  that should take care of  wmv and mov , flash is another thing
[06:35] <Pelo> !flash > HazTheSpaz check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[06:35] <corentin> bbeng1: try with this command (you need to adjust your network interface and network card driver): sudo wpa_supplicant -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dmadwifi -w
[06:35] <HazTheSpaz> Alright
[06:35] <DARKGuy> Pelo: yeah, I had to use that because it complained when I tried to install Ubuntu x64 xD
[06:35] <Taladan> !flash
[06:35] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:35] <rafaelscj> corentin, you there?
[06:35] <DARKGuy> Pelo: but I was wondering if it was better to compile my own kernel or use the generic one... I feel it kinda "heavy"
[06:35] <corentin> rafaelscj: yep
[06:35] <HazTheSpaz> I got it
[06:35] <HazTheSpaz> thanks
[06:35] <ubuntuNew> I wonder if I should install Kubuntu, or is it completely plausible to simply use my Ubuntu disk and install KDE after I setup Feisty?
[06:36] <Bucketface> Pelo, I did copy the .inf, is there anything else I need to copy?
[06:36] <Pelo> DARKGuy, you can always try to cmpile your own, but that is over my head
[06:36] <rafaelscj> corentin, I installed aircrack, but I can't use airodump, aireplay, etc...
[06:36] <DARKGuy> Pelo: hehe, same to me. It's okay, thanks for your time, as always =)
[06:36] <Pelo> Bucketface, I don'T think so  but I may be wrong ,  try it ilike that , see what happens
[06:36] <astro> -go to ubuntuforums
[06:36] <astro76> ubuntuNew, that's fine, and easy if you want both available, just install kubuntu-desktop package after installing Ubuntu
[06:36] <leo_rockw> ubuntuNew, you can install kde on ubuntu
[06:36] <corentin> rafaelscj: I think aireplay doesn't work with ipw3945
[06:36] <Bucketface> I did try it like that, said make you .sys is there and any other firmware.
[06:36] <Bucketface> I did try it like that, said make you .sys is there and any other firmware. pelo.
[06:36] <DARKGuy> Pelo: However, do you seem to know where can I find information on submitting a package for Gutsy ?
[06:36] <ubuntuNew> Hokey dokey
[06:37] <corentin> rafaelscj: you should get an atheros card
[06:37] <Bucketface> Hmm...
[06:37] <Bucketface> I'll try a restart.
[06:37] <rafaelscj> corentin, command not found
[06:37] <SystemOverload> Ubuntu can only handle one application that uses audio at a time?
[06:37] <Pelo> Bucketface,  check your windows for a related .sys file fo to with the .inf one
[06:37] <rafaelscj> corentin, what card do you have?
[06:37] <demonspork> unbuntuNew, you can even install KDE on the LiveCD, "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install KDE desktop system
[06:37] <Pelo> DARKGuy,  ask in #ubuntu+1
[06:37] <leo_rockw> SystemOverload, no, not really
[06:38] <DARKGuy> Pelo: thanks =)
[06:38] <soulrider_> ubuntulog, dont install kubuntu-desktop if youre ont he love CD
[06:38] <soulrider_> its a VERY BAD idea
[06:38] <astro76> SystemOverload, no, unless one program is old and still uses OSS, it can steal your sound
[06:38] <soulrider_> its better if you download the CD and burn it
[06:38] <corentin> rafaelscj: maybe I talked too fast :)
[06:38] <SystemOverload> Well, I had teamspeak open, and I go use rhythmbox, and I can't use it.
[06:38] <tanubis> Trying to play divx video, and I've installed all the plugins/etc that it came up with when searching for codecs to use with Totem.  When I play the video, it works OK but if I resize the window in any way the video output goes black.  I normally like to watch videos in fullscreen mode.... anyone know what might be the problem?
[06:38] <corentin> rafaelscj: things change so fast :)
[06:38] <astro76> SystemOverload, and teamspeak is the perfect example of one that still uses OSS :/
[06:38] <corentin> rafaelscj: look here http://forums.remote-exploit.org/archive/index.php/t-6567.html
[06:38] <SystemOverload> Oh :(
[06:39] <ubuntuNew> Hrmm.
[06:39] <SystemOverload> The only way for it to not hog the audio would for it to be recoded?
[06:39] <Pelo> tanubis,  are you using desktop effects, compiz , beryl ?
[06:39] <corentin> rafaelscj: it seems to work with BackTrack so you should be able to get it working with ubuntu
[06:39] <ubuntuNew> I'd really like to isolate the problems with Gnome and correct them, rather than installing Ubuntu fresh.
[06:39] <ubuntuNew> :/
[06:39] <astro76> SystemOverload, I know there's a solution, however I'm not aware of it
[06:39] <corentin> rafaelscj: if I were you I would burn a BackTrack livecd
[06:39] <Dabbill> TylerJGillies, not finding any help for my problem on the fourms
[06:39] <Pelo> ubuntuNew, try the forum
[06:39] <SystemOverload> Oh, ok.
[06:40] <ubuntuNew> hokey dokey
[06:40] <Dr_Link> I just installed Ubuntu on a PC and wiped the Windows partition. Now whenever I start the computer from a bootable disk such as a Kubuntu disk, I hear the drive run for a moment and then Ubuntu loads. WTF is going on?!
[06:40] <rafaelscj> corentin, what card do you have?
[06:40] <SystemOverload> I am also trying to figure out to have dual boot.
[06:40] <SystemOverload> I got into linux right now by using Super Grub Disk
[06:40] <astro76> SystemOverload, but when you look for help, what you want to look or ask for is information on getting a program that uses OSS to share the sound
[06:40] <astro76> !dualboot | SystemOverload
[06:40] <Pelo> Dr_Link,  make user the cd rom is the boot device

[06:40] <Dr_Link> make user?
[06:41] <SystemOverload> Oh, ok Thanks for both of those Astro76
[06:41] <leo_rockw> Dr_Link, make sure*
[06:41] <Dr_Link> I did.
[06:41] <Pelo> Dr_Link, sorry typo
[06:41] <Dr_Link> I hold down F12
[06:41] <jscinoz> has anyone had any success getting qjoypad to work?
[06:41] <Dr_Link> it asks me Hard disk, floppy or IDE CD-ROM?
[06:41] <Dr_Link> I select CD.
[06:41] <Dr_Link> The disk is in.
[06:41] <Dr_Link> NOTHING HAPPENS.
[06:41] <Pelo> Dr_Link,  are you sure that the kubuntu cd is a proper botable cd, id did you "burn an image" or did you jsut copy the iso to it ?
[06:41] <Dr_Link> I burned the image.
[06:42] <Dr_Link> With the same software I burned the ISO image of Ubuntu to.
[06:42] <leo_rockw> Dr_Link, did you make sure it is not corrupted?
[06:42] <eddie77> can any one tell me when i scan root with clam antivirus it only scans like 230 files?
[06:42] <corentin> rafaelscj: http://www.3com.com/products/en_US/detail.jsp?tab=features&pathtype=purchase&sku=3CRXJK10075
[06:42] <barosl> anyone using compiz-fusion?
[06:42] <Dr_Link> The only way I can tell is if I run a test on it.
[06:42] <jmonk82> is it possible to get xgl and ati x1650 pro working?
[06:42] <coolsliceman> barosl: i tried to
[06:42] <jscinoz> what can i do if a program requires libqtc102-mt which has since been obsoleted by libqt3-mt?
[06:42] <Dr_Link> And that can be done from VMWare.
[06:42] <jmonk82> i can't get it working
[06:42] <Pelo> Dr_Link,  since the boot device is a bios thing , the only other thing that can happen is that the cd isnT' bootbable for some reason , try burning a new one
[06:42] <coolsliceman> barosl: too unstaable
[06:42] <Taladan> hm, yeah, after following the instructions for the flash plugin thing, it still doesn't work.
[06:42] <SystemOverload> Does anyone have like a quick rundown of how Windows shares audio and how Ubuntu uses like Alsa and OSS
[06:43] <Bucketface> Pelo, I restarted, no bag D;
[06:43] <coolsliceman> SystemOverload: Windows shares it perfectly and OSS does not
[06:43] <SystemOverload> How come though?
[06:43] <Pelo> Bucketface,  try searching for the card model in the forum see if there is some better advice in there
[06:43] <mjancaitis> Hey Pelo, I'm back
[06:43] <SystemOverload> I am not like bashing OSS or Ubuntu, but I am interested in it.
[06:44] <SystemOverload> On how the audio works.
[06:44] <Pelo> welcome back mjancaitis
[06:44] <mjancaitis> So you know, I found a combo of grub parameters that lets me boot correctly - would you like them?
[06:44] <coolsliceman> SystemOverload: I guess check the ALSA documentation? if all else fails you have the code
[06:44] <barosl> anyone using compiz-fusion, i want to know what effect is on list in your ccsm. http://barosl.com/pub/desktop/barosl-desktop-1188103008.jpg.html
[06:44] <SystemOverload> Ok, thanks coolsliceman
[06:44] <mjancaitis> The unbootable Feisty, sound looping on the login
[06:44] <leo_rockw> SystemOverload, OSS is the older way to manage sound. some apps still use it
[06:44] <bbeng1> corentin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35087/
[06:44] <Fezzler> Can anyone recommend an Ubuntu terminal program other than Minicom that can send files in XMODEM over ttyUSB0?
[06:44] <yog> hi
[06:44] <barosl> coolsliceman, do you have compiz-fusion now?
[06:45] <leo_rockw> SystemOverload, OSS became a closed source thing (or smth of the like) so everybody switched to ALSA
[06:45] <Bucketface> Pelo, I am using information from the forum already.
[06:45] <ectospasm> SystemOverload:  you need a software mixer if your sound card doesn't do hardware mixing
[06:45] <yog> any1 willing to help newbie ?
[06:45] <Pelo> mjancaitis, you can tell me about it but I donT think it will mean much to me , I suggest you go and post about it in the forum  that way it will be available for future generations
[06:45] <nathan> I have everything perfect on my theme, except the bar where it says File Edit View etc, I want to change the background color... where is that?
[06:45] <coolsliceman> barosl: no, just compiz
[06:45] <SystemOverload> I see.
[06:45] <leo_rockw> !ask yog
[06:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask yog - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:45] <eddie77> whats a good antivirus for ubunto 7.04
[06:45] <leo_rockw> !ask | yog
[06:45] <ubotu> yog: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:45] <SystemOverload> Well, teamspeak is OSS, and I am not sure what other programs are.
[06:45] <mjancaitis> All righty, thanks again for your help guys
[06:45] <corentin> eddie77: clamav
[06:46] <Pelo> Bucketface,  the only thing I can suggest is for you to try geting help on this here at different times of day,  different crowds have different skillsets
[06:46] <SystemOverload> I have no sound in firefox, which I have been trying to fix, but my soundcard/usb headset is listed as a Alsa mixer
[06:46] <corentin> eddie77: and it is the only one I know
[06:46] <Bucketface> Yup.
[06:46] <eddie77> corentin whn i use that it only scans like 240 files when i  tell it to scan root
[06:46] <yog> ok i've got problem : i want to use wengophone VOIP and listen to mp3 at same time or watch yputune
[06:46] <Bucketface> It should be easy though, this guide seems fool proof!
[06:46] <eddie77> i have no idea why
[06:46] <Pelo> SystemOverload,  do you have sound elsewhere in ubuntu ? like rythymbox and totem ?
[06:46] <Bucketface> But I can't get it to recognise my card
[06:46] <nathan> I have everything perfect on my theme, except the bar where it says File Edit View etc, I want to change the background color... where is that?
[06:46] <SystemOverload> I am using rythymbox right now.
[06:46] <yog> but it seems like one program takes all soundcard resources, cos other is mute
[06:47] <coolsliceman> SystemOverload: you can use something to wrap oss programs
[06:47] <yog> where should i look for solutions ?
[06:47] <SystemOverload> Works fine, and teamspeak does also, but it can't share audio.
[06:47] <corentin> eddie77: maybe it tries to look a t executables files like .exe
[06:47] <coolsliceman> SystemOverload: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/sound/alsa-oss
[06:47] <laskar> co_manis
[06:47] <SystemOverload> Thanks, let me take a look.
[06:47] <Pelo> SystemOverload,  then I suggest you check the settings in ff and in the ff pluggins you have installed
[06:47] <eddie77> oic perhaps i never used a linux scaner before im used to windows
[06:47] <SystemOverload> Ok, thanks pelo and coolsliceman

[06:51] <DJAnubis> aah
[06:51] <DJAnubis> I should ask
[06:51] <DJAnubis> what are viable mountpoints for that?
[06:51] <eddie77> i  dont miss windows at all
[06:51] <rafaelscj> corentin, is there other compatible program?
[06:51] <SystemOverload> Were would I find the teamspeak executable?
[06:51] <coolsliceman> DJAnubis: uhhh what
[06:51] <astro76> DJAnubis, if you're just mounting temporarily, use /mnt
[06:52] <eddie77> found some cool screenlets today
[06:52] <DJAnubis> alright, thanks
[06:52] <leo_rockw> eddie77, i booted into XP yday to get rid of some stuff on that partition. omg... it was awful haha

[06:53] <x3rus> I want to install superkaramba on gnome, but I read that it is only possible on kde. is there something similar for gnome
[06:53] <rafaelscj> corentin, yes
[06:53] <eddie77> vista is to bloated for me
[06:53] <astro76> SystemOverload, type which teamspeak
[06:53] <corentin> rafaelscj: you don't want to give BackTrack a try ?
[06:53] <eddie77> its  3d desktop is way slower then  beryl or compiz
[06:53] <SystemOverload> Teamspeak 2?
[06:54] <rafaelscj> corentin, I don't have BackTrack
[06:54] <corentin> rafaelscj: you will have the same problem with another program as long as injection doesn't work

[06:54] <b4l74z4r> if i decide to set up a dual boot with windows xp and ubuntu feisty on the same drive and later find out that i don't want ubuntu anymore, do i have to re-install windows to reclaim the space ubuntu occupied?

[06:54] <SystemOverload> oh
[06:54] <benzs_s> b4l74z4r: no
[06:55] <astro76> SystemOverload, sorry I realized that confused you now ;)
[06:55] <SystemOverload> lol, I thought you were asking me.
[06:55] <b4l74z4r> benzs_s: how do i do it?
[06:55] <SystemOverload> :D
[06:55] <rafaelscj> corentin, may you give me the link?
[06:55] <SystemOverload> Thanks for the help astro76 :D

[06:55] <Geek_> b4l74z4r: No. you may need to fix the MBR if you don't want grub anymore, and either reformat the partition ubuntu is in, or resize the xp partition with gparted from the ubuntu livecd
[06:56] <SystemOverload> When I do AOSS
[06:56] <b4l74z4r> ok
[06:56] <SystemOverload> Teamspeak has no sound.
[06:56] <rafaelscj> Can we pvtmsg?
[06:56] <rafaelscj> corentin
[06:57] <astro76> SystemOverload, I guess that's why that guy was asking on the forum
[06:57] <TIHan> how do I become root when using the GUI of ubuntu?
[06:57] <astro76> !root | TIHan
[06:57] <ubotu> TIHan: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:57] <astro76> !gksu | TIHan
[06:57] <ubotu> TIHan: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[06:57] <SystemOverload> Oh, whatever, I will figure it out somehow. are there any expected fixes for OSS coming out in the next Ubuntu release?
[06:58] <xtknight> SystemOverload, what type of fixes?
[06:58] <DJAnubis> there's something mounted in /mnt
[06:58] <astro76> SystemOverload, applications should really be updated to use alsa
[06:58] <b4l74z4r> Geek_: so its not possible to use the xp disk administration tool from within windows and just choose to erase and merge the ubuntu partition to the c: partition?
[06:58] <DJAnubis> how do I unmount?
[06:58] <SystemOverload> Hmm, hold on.
[06:58] <xtknight> DJAnubis, sudo umount /mnt
[06:58] <chamunks> anyone know anything about setting up a wiimote for controlling my feisty install??
[06:58] <astro76> SystemOverload, of course teamspeak is closed source/proprietary
[06:58] <Trentster> Hi, all having a problem getting snmp running on a client, did the following apt-get install snmp , then /etc/init.d/snmpd start , does not give an error, the if i try ps aux | grep snmp there is no process running.....
[06:58] <DJAnubis> umount, god why
[06:58] <Trentster> Is the snmp package borked at the moment?
[06:58] <Geek_> b4l74z4r: no. cause the disk management MMC in windows XP doesn't resize
[06:58] <Geek_> hmm
[06:59] <b4l74z4r> ok, thanks for the help
[06:59] <astro76> DJAnubis, apropos unmount would give tell you about umount ;)
[06:59] <vexati0n> gah
[06:59] <SystemOverload> I found this link http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Sound
[06:59] <astro76> DJAnubis, 'apropos unmount' would tell you about umount ;)
[06:59] <DJAnubis> it says it's in use
[06:59] <TIHan> doesn't reall need help to be ROOT under GUI part of ubuntu
[06:59] <dcroce> hey everyone, i've been searching the forum for help on wireless but im still having problems with ubuntu recognizing my wireless card! any help would be appreciated. thx
[07:00] <astro76> DJAnubis, make sure no files are open from it in programs, also make sure no terminals are in that directory currently
[07:00] <TIHan> i'm trying to get DOSEMU to work on the harddisk part of ubuntu
[07:00] <TIHan> so i can access files
[07:01] <DJAnubis> thanks astro
[07:01] <astro76> SystemOverload, that looks promising
[07:01] <NoobSauce> anyone know of good video cameras (like camcorders) that work straight out of the box in ubuntu?
[07:01] <DJAnubis> okay, now it's telling me that /mnt/cdrom does not exist
[07:02] <astro76> DJAnubis, just use /mnt
[07:02] <Moniker42> how do i find out which partition grub is installed to?
[07:02] <astro76> DJAnubis, do you have stuff under /mnt? (ls /mnt)
[07:02] <SystemOverload> I have one more question. My USB headset is a ALSA mixer, and on the volume button on the top taskbar thing
[07:02] <DJAnubis> I'll try
[07:03] <SystemOverload> I can't controll it through there, or my volume buttons on my keyboard, they just make the volume symbol pop up on screen but even if I lower it all the way it is not affected. In properties, I can not select my sound card/headset
[07:04] <bbeng1> I am new to linux, well not that new, i dabbled in it about 2 years ago, but gave up because it was too frustrating for a windows dude with no formal computer training to learn
[07:05] <bbeng1> now i am trying ubuntu again, and so far happy
[07:05] <bbeng1> but i am frustrated with my  WPA issue with my wifi card
[07:05] <DJAnubis> hmm
[07:05] <DJAnubis> it's not reading it as the CD
[07:05] <bbeng1> I would love to praise linux and ubuntu to the world
[07:05] <bbeng1> but after 4 hours of trying to get it to work and reading every form that i can find
[07:06] <bbeng1> i am still frustrated
[07:06] <astro76> DJAnubis, it's just mounted to a directory, but it doesn't look like a cd device. What are you trying to do?
[07:06] <DJAnubis> I'm trying to get reason to run under wine
[07:06] <bbeng1> if anybody can help me with my wpa issue, it would be GREATLY appreciated
[07:06] <SystemOverload> Do you guys know of any volume control "widgets"?
[07:06] <DJAnubis> and it asks me for my cd, so I have an ISO that I ripped to save time and fumbling
[07:06] <DJAnubis> it works in windows, that's all I know
[07:07] <DJAnubis> but I also know I don't have daemontools on linux :P
[07:07] <bbeng1> corentin, you still there?
[07:07] <corentin> bbeng1: yep
[07:07] <astro76> DJAnubis, exactly, and I'm not sure if there's a way to accomplish the same thing
[07:07] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  nocd 'cracks' are handy. :) if of debateable legalness...
[07:07] <FFForever1> i am looking at firestarted and it says i have activity on my wifi device (a 2.0KB/s) the only problem is iwconfig says wifi is not setup
[07:07] <bbeng1> corentin, did you read my rant?
[07:07] <corentin> bbeng1: rant ?
[07:07] <DJAnubis> that's not really possible...
[07:07] <bbeng1> yea above
[07:08] <DJAnubis> there are no cracks, persay
[07:08] <bbeng1> about how linux is frustrating the heck out of me
[07:08] <DJAnubis> hmm
[07:08] <FFForever1> and all the traffic is inbound...
[07:08] <DJAnubis> I'll look at "mountiso KDE" it was referenced in the ubuntu link there
[07:08] <dr_Willis> bbeng1,  if it was windows giving you an issue..you wouldent even have things to be reading.. :)
[07:08] <bbeng1> corentin, any words of advise?
[07:09] <bbeng1> willis, true   LOL
[07:09] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  is this a cd copy protected game or what exactly?
[07:09] <chendo> how well does ubuntu do multi-user switching?
[07:09] <dr_Willis> chendo,  better then windows does it. :)
[07:09] <astro76> chendo, like all linux and unix systems, Ubuntu is thoroughly multi-user
[07:10] <chendo> i meant GUI-wise.
[07:10] <corentin> bbeng1: I don't understand about the rant ...
[07:10] <dr_Willis> chendo,  a few little issues here and there when having 2+ users logged into X. but not many.
[07:10] <bbeng1> dr_willis, i am really not wanting to be a windows basher, just need some help wit my linux
[07:10] <bbeng1> corentin, i just need some help
[07:10] <astro76> chendo, if you edit your menu, you can add a "New Login" item to Applications->System Tools
[07:10] <DJAnubis> dr_Willis:  no, it just needs to copy the files from the CD it doesn't need to be all that protected
[07:10] <chendo> astro76, i do know that *nix is thoroughly multi-user, just wanted to know how well it handles multiple X sessions etc
[07:10] <DJAnubis> it just needs to be there one time
[07:10] <DJAnubis> then it will use
[07:10] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  you should be able to mount the iso file then to a directory.
[07:10] <astro76> chendo, also by clicking switch user after clicking the power button
[07:10] <bullgard4> How many bytes comprises a memory page in Linux as in the message "swsusp: Need to copy 60322 pages"?
[07:11] <TIHan> how do you mousepad edit something through the terminal?
[07:11] <chendo> astro76, i see
[07:11] <bbeng1> corentin, this is where ubuntu told me to come for tech support, and nobody is really trying to spend some real time to help, I will be giving back to the ubuntu community as soon as I get up and understand some more
[07:11] <DJAnubis> it asks me to insert a CD
[07:11] <astro76> chendo, works well, sometimes sound and such could be problematic for the extra users
[07:11] <Taladan> !wpa
[07:11] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:11] <gcarrillo> ive lost my cube
[07:11] <corentin> bbeng1: what is your card again ?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> TIHan,  mousepad whatever.txt, or use a text based/console editor.
[07:11] <chendo> astro76, sometimes?
[07:11] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  this is with wine?
[07:11] <Taladan> !wpa > bbeng1
[07:11] <DJAnubis> yeah
[07:11] <bbeng1> ubotu, i have already looked there
[07:11] <Taladan> ubotu is a bot
[07:11] <ubotu> Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots for all information.
[07:11] <bbeng1> corentin,  zxytel  G-302
[07:11] <DJAnubis> I know that Reason works awesomely with wine
[07:11] <n2diy> ! patience ! bbeng1
[07:12] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  theres some wine options on that i recall.. or copy all the files from the cd/iso to a directory then cd to that dir. and run the isntaller..
[07:12] <bbeng1> n2diy, thanks, that is what my boss tells me everyday
[07:12] <Taladan> probably has the broadcom chip in it.
[07:12] <bbeng1> LOL
[07:12] <DJAnubis> :(
[07:12] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  ive seen a few brain dead programs demand cd'd get changed and so forth.
[07:12] <Moniker42> how do i find out what partition grub is installed to?
[07:12] <DJAnubis> brawr
[07:12] <dr_Willis> Moniker42,  normally its installed to the Master boot record, of the first hard drive.
[07:12] <bbeng1> All,  i can get my card to work just fine with WEP, but I think that wpa_supplicant is broken on my PC, and can't get it to configure a WPA connection
[07:13] <dr_Willis> bbeng1,  wireless is one of those things ive given up on under linux.. and windows. :)
[07:13] <corentin> bbeng1: take a look here ;) => http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=478605&page=2
[07:13] <astro76> bbeng1, ndiswrapper or a native driver?
[07:13] <DJAnubis> I don't think I can understand it
[07:13] <n2diy> bbeng1: ok, aparently the bot is working, we are are all volunteers here, including you, so you may have to wait for someone that has an answer for you. Have fun.
[07:13] <dr_Willis> bbeng1,  the next release/kernels i hear will have MUCH improved wireless support.
[07:13] <DJAnubis> or express it
[07:13] <bbeng1> astro, ndiswrapper
[07:13] <Moniker42> dr_Willis: i remember having this problem last time i reinstalled windows... i don't think it's on the first partition of the hard drive (only one drive internal)
[07:13] <n2diy> is/isn't
[07:13] <EMO> how do i get on the ubuntu power pc chat
[07:13] <bbeng1> astro, and taht i think is broken also
[07:13] <DJAnubis> it's like when some installer asks you to "Insert Disk Two"
[07:13] <dr_Willis> Moniker42,  theres a !fixgrub factoid that may help.
[07:14] <Taladan> well, i've gotten wireless to run on an ooold gateway solo running dapper.  Had to get the ndiswrappers and I have to change the key type every time I boot the thing up, but it works.
[07:14] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  there are 2 cd's ?
[07:14] <DJAnubis> there are 2 bank CDs
[07:14] <astro76> astro76, I believe ndiswrapper won't work right with network manager (which handles wpa connections in Feisty), this seems to be covered in the link corentin gave you
[07:14] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  Or do you mean to say there are 2 iso files, of the cd's ?
[07:14] <astro76> bbeng1, , I believe ndiswrapper won't work right with network manager (which handles wpa connections in Feisty), this seems to be covered in the link corentin gave you
[07:14] <DJAnubis> there are two ISO files of the CDs
[07:15] <n2diy> ! patience | bbeng1
[07:15] <DJAnubis> I'm HOLDING disk one
[07:15] <ubotu> bbeng1: 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
[07:15] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  wjat ive done in the past. is copy ALL files from both iso's i mounted. to a single dir. then ran the isntaller from that dir.
[07:15] <bbeng1> ALL,   thanks, i am looking at that link now,   I will be back later
[07:15] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  seen a few games that needed that.
[07:15] <asd> Where is the control panel? for ubunto?
[07:15] <Moniker42> dr_Willis: i was using that last night and it wasn't working but now that i see it again the solution is at the bottom of the page in another section ;)
[07:15] <Taladan> heh
[07:15] <n2diy> bbeng1, ah the bot is working, my syntax isn't. )
[07:16] <astro76> asd, System menu->preferences, and also system menu->administration
[07:16] <asd> i need to change the driver for the screen it's the wrong one
[07:16] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  rather trivial.. mount one cd.. copy stuff over.. mount 2nd cd.. copy stuff over..  :) cd to the dir.. wine setup.exe or whatever.
[07:16] <ubuntuNew> Gnome hates me:(
[07:16] <MeRodent> Anyone using Xchat? Is it possible to hide or redirect the join and leave messages?
[07:16] <astro76> !xconfig | asd
[07:16] <ubotu> asd: 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
[07:16] <Taladan> Ubuntu doesn't have a 'control panel' per se, but system administration is under the system menu.
[07:16] <DJAnubis> no, it's really not that simple
[07:16] <DJAnubis> I've already got the info
[07:16] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  i recall some games UT2004? needed tobe done that way. the installer would 'lock' the cd. and not let ya change it.
[07:16] <Moniker42> asd: screens don't have drivers, it's probably the graphics card or something to do with X
[07:16] <ubuntuNew> Nautilus is broken and my Desktop seems to be, too. Every now and then it stops responding (The desktop,) or so I think, as I can no longer right-click
[07:16] <ubuntuNew> And receive a context menu of options.
[07:16] <DJAnubis> errrg
[07:17] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  ive also copied the installed directory from a windows install to my linux drive to run it with wine.
[07:17] <DJAnubis> the files are copied, it just needs to see you pop them in to register completely
[07:17] <dr_Willis> May want to check the wine forums/web sites for that specific program i guess. sounds liek its not playing nicely.
[07:17] <DJAnubis> every time you access it from a new location, it registers it
[07:17] <ddpmf> is there a good irc channel for website authoring/html ?
[07:18] <DJAnubis> and cycling those two CDs is a part of the process
[07:18] <asd> what about the mouser how can i configure that it didn't detect :) lol
[07:18] <asd> mandrake has control center, which allows all this
[07:18] <Geek_> erm
[07:18] <DJAnubis> I just need something like daemon tools or mountiso
[07:18] <praveer_fedora> does ubuntu 7.04 come with desktop effects?
[07:18] <Geek_> 'mandrake' ?
[07:18] <astro76> asd, what do you mean it didn't detect it?
[07:18] <asd> well the mouse is not working
[07:18] <Geek_> praveer_fedora: yes, but needs a little setup
[07:18] <asd> it pluged into the serial port
[07:19] <praveer_fedora> Geek_: what kind of setup?
[07:19] <dr_Willis> DJAnubis,  no such thing as deamon tools under linux. since you can just mount a .iso file. guess yacould manually unmount the iso, then mount the other iso, then hit continue on the program..
[07:19] <n2diy> ddpmf: #ruby?
[07:19] <astro76> !mouse | asd see link about serial mouse:
[07:19] <ubotu> asd see link about serial mouse:: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[07:19] <Geek_> praveer_fedora: setting up your video cards, and a line or two in xorg.conf
[07:19] <praveer_fedora> Geek_: that one I can manage easily
[07:20] <ddpmf> n2diy: are you kidding?
[07:20] <gcarrillo> hey does anybody know how to add a gradient to the panels?
[07:20] <dr_Willis> serial mouse? egads. :) actual serial mice? or ya mean a ps2 mouse?
[07:21] <n2diy> ddpmf:  sorry, #ruby-lang
[07:21] <asd> can't run xxonfig
[07:21] <gcarrillo> to make them look 3d?
[07:21] <Bucketface> AGHHH
[07:21] <asd> i don't have the super user password
[07:21] <dr_Willis> asd,  whats what 'sudo' is all about.
[07:21] <Bucketface> In ndiswrapper-1.47 I keep getting told that the driver is invalid.
[07:21] <Bucketface> What do I do?!
[07:21] <corentin> Bye all
[07:22] <phoenixz> asd, gotta use "sudo xconfig"
[07:22] <Meroigo> hm.. what should I do if the system totally freezes? When I logged out from an user account everything freezed on the screen and the keyboard and mouse stopped working. I had to do a hard shutdown. ;o
[07:22] <astro76> asd, your user password is used with sudo
[07:22] <astro76> !root | asd
[07:23] <asd> so whats the command?
[07:23] <ubotu> asd: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:23] <dr_Willis> Meroigo,  often i 'ssh' into the machine and use the 'reboot' command. for a nicer way to kicker it in the head.
[07:23] <wweasel> Hello, could someone please lend me a hand sorting out my alsamixer? I just enabled support for my HDA-Intel sound card, it is now recognized and supported by ALSA, I just need some help sorting out the settings in alsamixer/gnome-volume-control
[07:23] <dr_Willis> bye all......
[07:23] <Meroigo> ;o
[07:23] <Meroigo> Isn't shh some kind of remote controlling protocol? :P
[07:24] <phoenixz> asd, sudo xconfig... but you should have a password for that.. unless you configured the /etc/sudoers file to not need one..
[07:24] <Meroigo> it's too much of an hassle to start using other computers...
[07:24] <DJAnubis> I need a wine channel
[07:24] <phoenixz> Meroigo, ssh you mean?
[07:24] <Meroigo> ssh *
[07:24] <Meroigo> what dr_Willis said
[07:24] <DJAnubis> I can't believe it's this hard to do something
[07:24] <astro76> Meroigo, ssh is so easy and useful :)
[07:24] <astro76> !ssh | Meroigo
[07:24] <ubotu> Meroigo: 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/
[07:24] <DJAnubis> I don't really care so much about mounting now
[07:25] <Meroigo> ....yes, it seem to be a remote controlling thing ^^
[07:25] <phoenixz> DJAnubis, what are you trying to do then?
[07:25] <Meroigo> which I'm not interested in if the system totally freezes.
[07:25] <asd> dam it there is no xconfig
[07:25] <astro76> Meroigo, it's a secure shell, so it basically just gives you a terminal like you were local
[07:25] <phoenixz> Meroigo, With SSH, you can, for example, access another computer (or your own) over an encrypted channel, but just follow the given link, I'm sure its explained a lot better there..
[07:26] <DJAnubis> now I want to get steam to run
[07:26] <astro76> Meroigo, it's possible that a lot of things froze up but your sshd might still running
[07:26] <phoenixz> asd, whereis xconfig
[07:26] <DJAnubis> I want to see about running some CS of sorts
[07:26] <Meroigo> I just hope it just happen again.
[07:26] <ddpmf_> Meroigo: what exactly are you looking for
[07:26] <phoenixz> asd, then run it with the full path given
[07:26] <nathan> I have everything perfect on my theme, except the bar where it says File Edit View etc, I want to change the background color... where is that?
[07:26] <phoenixz> DJAnubis, cs??
[07:26] <DJAnubis> counter-strike
[07:26] <Caprisun> hi
[07:27] <outlaw686> hey there
[07:27] <Meroigo> and it's a pity that it did it. last time I experienced TOTAL freezes was on Windows 98. And I have used Windows XP for many years without it even once happening. Nope, I'm not saying Ubuntu is bad. I still want to use it. :) before someone says "well go back to windows".
[07:27] <ddpmf_> yumm ... Capri Sun...
[07:27] <phoenixz> DJAnubis, Dunno about that.. if you find something though, let me know.. :) Games are not perfect yet on linux, at least not the big commercial ones.. Simple problem: All commercial games are written for M$
[07:27] <DJAnubis> I've seen it done rather well for counter strike actually
[07:28] <Caprisun> does anyone know a boot param which will keep the ubuntu live CD from using my swap partition?
[07:28] <DJAnubis> it's getting steam to work is the problem xD
[07:28] <asd> there is no xconfig in 7.0
[07:28] <Meroigo> wine.. it's cool that it works perfectly with Torrent :D
[07:28] <astro76> Meroigo, freezes under linux are almost always hardware related, sometimes the proprietary 3d drivers will freeze the system
[07:28] <Meroigo> okay...
[07:28] <DJAnubis> aah
[07:28] <Meroigo> I have a stupid ATI card.
[07:28] <DJAnubis> restart required!
[07:28] <phoenixz> Meroigo, A linux freeze? Thats like.. the only time I saw that was when I was heavily screwing around with X.. For the rest, whatever I do with the compu, it wont freeze..
[07:28] <n2diy> Caprisun: --noswap?
[07:28] <Meroigo> maybe it's hardware.
[07:28] <Caprisun> oh
[07:28] <Caprisun> i just did "noswap"
[07:28] <Caprisun> thanks
[07:29] <outlaw686> I've been thinking of running WoW on ubuntu and getting rid of windows all together. I know there's a lot of stuff that happened 2006 with linux users being banned? Anyone been having any probems recently?
[07:29] <Caprisun> at the F6 prompt?
[07:29] <phoenixz> Meroigo, It usually is yeah..
[07:29] <Meroigo> it freezed two times some days ago too, on the same day. Then I had enabled Desktop Effects. So I disabled it and then i never saw a freeze.
[07:29] <Meroigo> then now I saw a freeze when Ubuntu was logging out
[07:29] <phoenixz> Meroigo, If you got an ATI card, it also may be drivers.. ATI is nutoriously bad with linux drivers.. Just check you got the correct driver
[07:29] <Meroigo> maybe it was going to do that fade thing.
[07:29] <phoenixz> Meroigo, There are 2 different ones.. the ATI one and the open source one
[07:29] <phoenixz> Meroigo, Dunno which is better
[07:30] <Meroigo> I seem to have it installed allready.
[07:30] <Meroigo> i can render 3D correctly
[07:30] <phoenixz> Meroigo, you mean beryl or compiz?
[07:30] <Meroigo> which I couldn't a year ago when I was trying out ubuntu for the first time.
[07:30] <Meroigo> dunno, System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects
[07:30] <n2diy> Caprisun: no at the boot prompt.
[07:30] <phoenixz> Meroigo, Im not the expert on those, but those 2 in combination with ATI ....  I know th ati drivers are bad, let me kee pit at that, but someone correct me if Im wrong on that please
[07:30] <asd> well i'm installing mandrake, unbunto is only good if it sets up everything correctly
[07:31] <asd> it didn't so mandrake here i come
[07:31] <n2diy> mandrake!?
[07:31] <astro76> outlaw686, this does not answer your question, but if you haven't seen it it should be helpful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[07:31] <Meroigo> I think 7.04 had some nice ATI drivers with it, because my card worked as it should directly. :=
[07:31] <Caprisun> thanks n2diy
[07:31] <Meroigo> :)
[07:31] <wweasel> I need some help with alsamixer. I have a constant faint white noise coming out of my speaker
[07:31] <astro76> lol, switching to mandrake because of a serial mouse :/
[07:31] <phoenixz> Meroigo, that would be beryl or compiz yeah.. and Id guess you are using open source drivers then.. you may wish to try the ATI binary drivers..
[07:31] <Caprisun> im actually looking this up for a friend
[07:31] <n2diy> Caprisun: Good luck.
[07:31] <Caprisun> he needs to delete a swap partition but is having trouble
[07:32] <Meroigo> if my graphic card stops responding, what does linux do? in windows, the ati drivers like does some restore thing and things go back to normal again.
[07:32] <asd> astro76 also it using the wrogn driver and i can't find a control panel to change it
[07:32] <asd> mandriva has had control panel since 2001
[07:32] <phoenixz> Meroigo, If your graphics card stops responding, you would not see anything on your screen actually :) But like I said, ATI drivers for linux suck
[07:32] <phoenixz> pardon my french..
[07:33] <Caprisun> phoenixz:
[07:33] <Caprisun> i know what you mean
[07:33] <Caprisun> i got a new machine with a ATI chipset
[07:33] <n2diy> I love the french language.
[07:33] <phoenixz> Meroigo, They are, for quality, not even close to the linux drivers..
[07:33] <Caprisun> most Linux distros just refuse to load
[07:33] <phoenixz> Meroigo, And what I heard, even on windows the ati drivers are bad.. :)
[07:33] <phoenixz> ATI makes great video cards but lousy drivers..
[07:33] <astro76> asd, yes serial mice aren't detected properly, hence the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[07:34] <Meroigo> yeah... but sometimes when I have played games on Windows that's too heavy or something, the screen goes black for some seconds, then it works again and a popup comes up saying something like "your graphics card stopped responing but we did a recovery" :P
[07:34] <astro76> Meroigo, wow I've never heard of graphics cards that stop responding :/
[07:34] <phoenixz> Meroigo, Sounds like a marketing message to me :) I guess what they would really have to say is that your card got too hot for example...
[07:34] <GBenemy> ok
[07:34] <GBenemy> hi everyone
[07:34] <GBenemy> question
[07:35] <phoenixz> GBenemy, shoot
[07:35] <GBenemy> I downloaded the .iso from ubuntu.org
[07:35] <GBenemy> now
[07:35] <GBenemy> on the site
[07:35] <GBenemy> it said it was apx 700mb
[07:35] <astro76> !enter | GBenemy
[07:35] <ubotu> GBenemy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:35] <phoenixz> GBenemy, and?
[07:35] <GBenemy> sorry
[07:35] <Meroigo> hah, yeah, my graphics card doesn't have a fan ;) it stopped working. but I have been able to do all things except playing games. :P
[07:35] <n2diy> ! enter | GBenemy
[07:35] <astro76> GBenemy, no worries ;)
[07:35] <wweasel> Guys, could someone help me get rid of a constant white noise coming out of my speakers - the problem is with alsa
[07:35] <Meroigo> so, maybe when linux hangs it was because of the card overheating and it didn't have a recovering thing like on windows :/
[07:36] <phoenixz> wweasel, sure its alsa, and not some bad cable?
[07:36] <Caprisun> wweasel: do you have a microphone?
[07:36] <outlaw686> thanks astro, I have another question if I install the restricted driver is switching to the open source drivers just as easy as unchecking something in restricted drivers panel? How do I know which my system is using? which are better?
[07:36] <astro76> Meroigo, that sounds likely
[07:36] <phoenixz> Meroigo, could be, but then again, it could also be the driver software *@#($ up...
[07:36] <wweasel> phoenixz: internal laptop speakers
[07:36] <GBenemy> and, when i was downloading it, it went "xx / 698mb downloaded" and that xx kept going up as usual but when it got to 50 it stopped and said "Download complete" and even the file on my desktop, if i right-click -> properties it says "56MB" i'm not sure if this is the full file or not
[07:36] <wweasel> Caprisun: Yeah, I figure that's the problem
[07:36] <nathan> I have everything perfect on my theme, except the bar where it says File Edit View etc, I want to change the background color... where is that?
[07:36] <astro76> outlaw686, you wouldn't have to uncheck in the restricted drivers manager, just would have to change the Driver line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:37] <GBenemy> I tried downloading it again, but it stopped in the same place and said "all files downloaded"
[07:37] <GBenemy> ??
[07:37] <n2diy> outlaw686: lsmod list your current modulel/drivers.
[07:37] <Rabbitbunny> How do I get Ethereal to display live data on Dapper?
[07:37] <phoenixz> Meroigo, Linux will kick ass and conquer windows when: A) there are good graphics drivers for it, B) office formats are open so you can always use open office without problem and C) all games will be written with linux in mind as well
[07:37] <astro76> GBenemy, did you try a different mirror?
[07:37] <GBenemy> yeah the second time around
[07:37] <outlaw686> * to be more specific i mean ati drivers which are better open source or proprietary?
[07:37] <phoenixz> wweasel, could even be with a laptop.. :)  But ok.. Have you tried alsamixer?
[07:37] <GBenemy> but the files keep completing download in the same spot
[07:38] <mattg> i am desperate to get my laptop to read UDF Volumes.  I am having issues with them.  Can anybody PLEASE help me??
[07:38] <astro76> GBenemy, what program are you using to download?
[07:38] <Caprisun> wweasel: turn your microphone down in  alsamixer
[07:38] <wweasel> phoenixz: Well, I don't get the white noise with the bundled Vista
[07:38] <wweasel> Caprisun: muted.
[07:38] <Meroigo> But I HAVE a fan lying somewhere I can put on the card with rubber bands, haha, like I did when I really badly wanted to play Final Fantasy XI. Some months later they dried out and the fan dropped so I removed it from the card... maybe i should rubber band mod the card again with the fan and see if i get more freezes XD
[07:38] <Caprisun> you turned the boost off?
[07:38] <phoenixz> outlaw686, Dunno which are better.. For NVIdia, supposedly, the binary drivers are better..
[07:38] <Caprisun> try maybe even turning your system volume down
[07:39] <astro76> outlaw686, not sure really, I have an X600 which seems to work well with the proprietary (fglrx) drivers
[07:39] <phoenixz> wweasel, okay, but again.. have you tried alsamixer?
[07:39] <astro76> outlaw686, for some cards maybe the open source 3d driver is better, I think the latest cards aren't even supported by proprietary drivers
[07:39] <wweasel> phoenixz, Caprisun: I just compiled alsa with a patch to support my HDA Intel sound card. The support is slightly sketchy.
[07:39] <Meroigo> Does Linux have good support for NVIDIA cards? Maybe I should get a cheap NVIDIA card and get rid off (maybe) all problems.
[07:40] <astro76> Meroigo, nvidia is *much* better
[07:40] <n2diy> Meroigo: sounds like your trying to "overclock" your monitor? Don't do that, it can kill your card, but worse, it can light your monitor on fire.
[07:40] <phoenixz> Meroigo, When using linux, currently NVidia is the way to go yeah
[07:40] <Meroigo> okay
[07:40] <phoenixz> Meroigo, I have an nvidia card, and NO problems at all
[07:40] <wweasel> phoenixz I'm trying alsamixer. The problem is that it isn't straightforward with this card
[07:40] <Meroigo> n2diy, wait what? I've not tried to mod anything O_o
[07:40] <outlaw686> astro76, yea I kinda wondered because now that dell uses ubuntu they are making ati make more opensouce drivers. really wondered if they had made any headway yet
[07:40] <yog> hmm did i miss my answer
[07:40] <Meroigo> what's "overclock your monitor"?
[07:40] <phoenixz> wweasel, If you compiled alsa yourself.. erw, thats out of my league, sorry.. but you may want to try the #alsa channel!
[07:40] <nathan> hwo do I add an icon on my desktop??
[07:41] <astro76> outlaw686, well AMD bought ATI, so they should improve in the future
[07:41] <astro76> outlaw686, AMD is good with linux
[07:41] <outlaw686> :D
[07:41] <Meroigo> if you mean resolution, I have the recommended resolutiion for the monitor :P
[07:41] <nathan> how do I add an icon on my desktop?? right clicking doesn't do anything
[07:41] <n2diy> Meroigo: ok, stay below your horz. refresh specs, and you'll be ok, otherwise, your asking for trouble.
[07:41] <kahrytan> Meroigo, Nvidia is the best way to go. Newegg has some cheap cards too. $35-40 starting
[07:41] <Meroigo> wow that's cheap
[07:41] <n2diy> nathan: drag and drop
[07:41] <phoenixz> astro76, outlaw686 AMD is very pro open source, and when they took over ATI many ppl said the drivers could even become completely open source but.. nothing.. :(
[07:41] <astro76> nathan, right clicking and selecting "Create Launcher..." doesn't do anything?
[07:41] <ce_imutzz> hai
[07:42] <astro76> phoenixz, it's going to take time no matter what they do
[07:42] <nathan> right clicking doesn't do anything at all
[07:42] <n2diy> nathan: drag and drop
[07:42] <astro76> nathan, no context menu appears?
[07:42] <nathan> nothing happens
[07:42] <Meroigo> I never play games, but I do like google earth and nice desktop effects (compiz and such), so that's all I want a graphics card to be able to handle. Does 40 dollar cards do that?
[07:42] <phoenixz> astro76, I understand that but it already has been a year and ATI drivers are still to cry about..
[07:42] <mimik> hi. is there anything like TERRAGEN (landscape generator) that I can use in (k)ubunutu?
[07:42] <nathan> n2diy: i don't have anything to copy, i want to make a new one
[07:42] <astro76> nathan, that would be the first problem I'd worry about ;)
[07:43] <m0u5e> anyone know the difference between the xserver-xorg-video-i810 drivers and the xserver-xorg-video-intel drivers?
[07:43] <phoenixz> Meroigo, for those things? yeah.. no prob..  I have used google earth on a standard PCI (NOT PCI express!) nvidia GForce 4.. :)
[07:43] <n2diy> nathan: ah, good luck., haven't done that.
[07:43] <astro76> phoenixz, unfortunately a lot of the issues they are probably dealing with (especially if they are going open source) are with their lawyers
[07:43] <Meroigo> cool
[07:43] <forevertheuni> hi..I am update to gusty and I had an error in netatalk
[07:43] <phoenixz> astro76, amen!
[07:43] <outlaw686> all I can say is that I love open source I can finally use my computer without paying some ridiculous price, or feeling like a thief somewhere deep down in my conscience for pirating software
[07:44] <wweasel> forevertheuni: for gutsy support try #ubuntu+1
[07:44] <forevertheuni> invoke-rc.d: initscript netatalk, action "start" failed.
[07:44] <GBenemy> astro76: no program just clicking "download now"
[07:44] <astro76> m0u5e, intel is newer than i810, intel will probably be the default in the future, and intel might be better in your particular setup
[07:44] <m0u5e> astro76: somehow ppracer stopped working once i upgraded to intel though -_-;
[07:44] <astro76> m0u5e, look for info here http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:44] <m0u5e> astro76: thx
[07:44] <astro76> GBenemy, what program did you click "download now" in?
[07:45] <astro76> GBenemy, firefox?
[07:45] <nathan> god damnit why can't ubuntu just WORK
[07:45] <Meroigo> does wine have some hidden debugging feature enabled by default? I'm using wine with the game Cave Story and I play a couple of seconds, then it stops for like 0,5 second, then it plays smoothly again.. then it just does that over and over during the play :P
[07:45] <nathan> I have been trying to get it set up for almost 4 days now
[07:46] <wweasel> phoenixz: I found the problem, and it was in alsamixer. Thanks for your help
[07:46] <Meroigo> and.. i want to disable the debugging if it's enabled, to maybe make Cave Story run smoothe
[07:46] <Meroigo> r
[07:46] <m0u5e> astro76: is there a way to purge the old i180 stuff once you've upgraded to intel?
[07:46] <m0u5e> astro76: *i810
[07:46] <n2diy> nathan: it does!
[07:46] <GBenemy> yeah
[07:47] <GBenemy> firefox
[07:47] <Aishiko> well if you disable any debugging it's doing (unlikely) then odds are good it'll just stop the game completely
[07:47] <Meroigo> oh, when I before said "Never play games", I meant "never play 3D games on the computer" ;P I do play cave story and 2d console emulators =P
[07:47] <nathan> I can't get anything from right clicking
[07:47] <astro76> m0u5e, I guess you could install the xorg package for i810, but actually the xorg packages for every driver are installed by default in ubuntu. So either leave it, or delete all the ones you're not using if you care enough ;)
[07:47] <Meroigo> Aishiko, oh, okay :P
[07:47] <astro76> m0u5e, *guess you could uninstall
[07:47] <nathan> I just installed ubuntu yesterday
[07:47] <nathan> so it's already broken now
[07:48] <mattg> UDF anybody???
[07:48] <Aishiko> it's most likely an inssue in the handling of the data,
[07:48] <outlaw686> right clicking worked by defaut for me? what kind of mouse do you have? what kind of hardware?
[07:48] <nathan> right clicking works
[07:48] <nathan> just not on the desktop
[07:48] <GBenemy> adtro76: yes, firefox
[07:49] <astro76> GBenemy, not sure what to tell you, try a couple of other mirrors, if that doesn't work, something is wrong with either your ISP or your setup somehow
[07:49] <outlaw686> u tried rebooting?
[07:49] <Rabbitbunny> How do I get Ethereal to display live data on Dapper?
[07:49] <nathan> i will now
[07:50] <n2diy> Sigh, rebooting = windows
[07:50] <astro76> yeah I was going to tell him nathan, try logging out and logging back in, if that doesn't work, reset the X server after you log about by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[07:50] <astro76> :D
[07:50] <outlaw686> reboot, reinstall, rethink, run!
[07:51] <n2diy> run to linux!
[07:51] <Zack> HEY!
[07:51] <Zack> How do i mount a Ipod in Amarok??
[07:52] <astro76> !ipod | Zack
[07:52] <ubotu> Zack: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[07:52] <bullgard4> How many bytes comprises a memory page in Linux as in the message "swsusp: Need to copy 60322 pages"?
[07:52] <Nanoer> do you have to pay for the ubuntu certified professional training and exam?
[07:53] <GBenemy> astro76: have tried 4 different mirrors, two in the UK, one US and one France
[07:53] <n2diy> bullgard4: IIRC, it is 2k per page.
[07:53] <GBenemy> all "completed" download at the exact same spot
[07:53] <mendred> Zack: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/04/how-to-use-amarok-to-manage-your-ipod-in-ubuntu/
[07:53] <GBenemy> .iso is only 56MB
[07:53] <mendred> that might also be useful
[07:54] <outlaw686> ipod = apple  = EVIL!
[07:54] <n2diy> outlaw686: no, just not so evil. :)
[07:54] <astro76> GBenemy, are you downloading from windows or linux? try this link: http://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/ubuntu-releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[07:55] <GBenemy> windows
[07:55] <GBenemy> xp
[07:55] <GBenemy> firefox
[07:55] <n2diy> so/as
[07:55] <Meroigo> I was playing Cave Story now again with Wine, and it didn't lag. =) It was probably because I shut down programs to free RAM, CPU etc.. :P
[07:55] <GBenemy> astro76: ok
[07:55] <astro76> GBenemy, wow I tried to download that one and it crapped out under 10MB
[07:55] <GBenemy> lol
[07:56] <GBenemy> the one you gave me is at 7mb
[07:56] <outlaw686> really if it were up to woznack and not Jobs I think apple would be more open source like linux
[07:56] <astro76> lol it's an option
[07:56] <astro76> !shipit
[07:56] <ubotu> shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[07:56] <astro76> GBenemy, now it's going, so far...
[07:56] <n2diy> outlaw686: Isn't OSX liinux based?
[07:56] <GBenemy> it's made it to 14%
[07:57] <GBenemy> no
[07:57] <GBenemy> 2%
[07:57] <GBenemy> 14mb
[07:57] <GBenemy> sorry
[07:57] <outlaw686> n2diy, its UNIX based like linux
[07:57] <GBenemy> this is going to take forever
[07:57] <faileas> n2diy: no- its a bsd/mac hybrid
[07:57] <faileas> mach
[07:57] <GBenemy> and i can't pause it and come bak either
[07:57] <astro76> GBenemy, well if you do get one to complete, be sure to check the md5sum to verify it
[07:57] <astro76> !md5s
[07:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about md5s - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:57] <astro76> !md5
[07:57] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[07:57] <n2diy> outlaw686: ok, so it is posix baed, at least.
[07:57] <cafuego> n2diy: Its kernel is a modified freebsd kernel, the userpsace tools are mainly GNU tools, the UI is wholly proprietary.
[07:57] <thedash> I seem to have made a problem, but I am not sure what or how
[07:58] <m0u5e> astro76: i tried reinstalling the i810 package, but i also got the same error... -_-;
[07:58] <mattg> nobody here has had issues with UDF???
[07:58] <m0u5e> astro76: yeah, i tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it still doesnt work
[07:58] <thedash> all my man pages have "[m" after a lot of the lines, anything in bold text no longer has spaces, it gives errors when I leave, like "pager: Symbol `ospeed' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking", etc
[07:58] <n2diy> cafuego: roger that, kernels are out of my league.
[07:58] <astro76> GBenemy, I've always had good luck with easynews as a mirror: http://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/ubuntu-releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[07:59] <GBenemy> astro76: so far, that first one you gave me is at 39MB
[07:59] <astro76> m0u5e, all you'd have to do is replace "intel" in your xorg.conf with "i810"
[07:59] <damntech> Anyone here play with KVM on the latest Feisty?
[07:59] <astro76> GBenemy, that last link is cooking right along
[08:00] <GBenemy> yes bt if stop and change mirrors
[08:00] <GBenemy> then i have to start all over again
[08:00] <astro76> GBenemy, well dont' stop if it's still going :)
[08:00] <GBenemy> lol
[08:00] <outlaw686> damntech: I like kubuntu I loaded the live cd on my laptop and am thinking of putting it on my desktop permanatly
[08:00] <GBenemy> I plan to buy my own laptop in the next couple of weeks
[08:00] <GBenemy> so i figured
[08:00] <outlaw686> its nice and flashy
[08:01] <GBenemy> i could download all this crap on my parents' bandwidth first
[08:01] <GBenemy> haha
[08:01] <asd> anyone found the control panel for ubuntu?
[08:01] <astro76> GBenemy, heh, well shipit takes only about 2-3 weeks so if you don't have luck, order now :D
[08:01] <outlaw686> is there any real difference between kubuntu and ubuntu besides preference?
[08:01] <damntech> outlaw686: you ran that virtually through KVM?
[08:01] <GBenemy> to UK?
[08:01] <outlaw686> damtech: just the live cd
[08:01] <asd> they both lack easeir to configure control panels :) lol
[08:02] <m0u5e> astro76: yeah it replaced it when i dpkg reconfigured
[08:02] <mainer> asd: gnome-control-center??
[08:02] <Meroigo> can I make a program that runs in fullscreen in wine, in a window instead?
[08:02] <faileas> GBenemy: usually less than that when i order ;p
[08:02] <astro76> GBenemy, it comes from south africa IIRC, but I think most of that time is preparation
[08:02] <asd> mandriva-one i beleive is better
[08:02] <outlaw686> I got my dad to switch over to ubuntu :)
[08:02] <Meroigo> like, the program think it's fullscreen but for me with the gnome desktop it's a window
[08:02] <astro76> m0u5e, oh ok, I'm not sure what your exact problem is, so you might want to ask the channel again
[08:02] <GBenemy> ll
[08:03] <damntech> oh ok. I was just asking about folks experience with Kernel Virtualization Module (OSS virtualization solution)
[08:03] <damntech> I am very happy with ubuntu as a desktop solution too
[08:03] <cyberphaz> me too, add vmware to run some windows stuff i need and cant under ubuntu and there is no need to reboot into windows :P
[08:03] <GBenemy> how come you have to pay for PClinuxOS? i though all linux software was free?
[08:04] <outlaw686> damntech: do you mean vmware?
[08:04] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, free as in speech, yes
[08:04] <n2diy> damntech: you might find better answers in #ubuntu-kernel?
[08:04] <GBenemy> what do you mean?
[08:04] <gletob> hello
[08:04] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, linux is open... you are free to change it, copy it, distribute it... and sell it
[08:05] <GBenemy> ooh
[08:05] <bullgard4> n2diy: Can you prove your statement? I have heard that it is 4 kB per page.
[08:05] <damntech> No KVM is opensource  virtualization its in its first years sof devel.
[08:05] <GBenemy> so technically speaking
[08:05] <marita> hello
[08:05] <GBenemy> i could download ubuntu
[08:05] <GBenemy> change something
[08:05] <faileas> GBenemy: gpl merely states tat source should be provided with any sale or distribution. dosen't mean that it needs to eb free
[08:05] <GBenemy> then sell it?
[08:05] <GBenemy> ahhh
[08:05] <marita> have you guys been able to install printers on Ubuntu?
[08:05] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, ianal but i think so
[08:05] <faileas> IF you provide your changes with the sale, as form of sourcecode
[08:05] <damntech> Thank you for directing me to ubuntu-kernel
[08:05] <gletob> can anyone tell me how to upgrade to the gusty alpha
[08:05] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, but who would buy it if there is ubuntu?
[08:05] <GBenemy> lol
[08:05] <outlaw686> GBenemy: yes linux is free, however there will always be greedy people who want to make money they do this by writing there own closed sourced code into it
[08:05] <GBenemy> i'm not planning to do it
[08:06] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, yeah... you would have to provide source code
[08:06] <n2diy> bullgard4: no, and you can't either. It depends on your font, point size etc... It is just a rule of thumb.
[08:06] <GBenemy> i was just searching for an example
[08:06] <GBenemy> i know NOTHING about linux
[08:06] <m0u5e> astro76: i was just rying to get ppracer working :D, it was working after i installed compiz-fusion, but with little weird flashes... i then upgraded from the i810 driver to the intel driver, but now it doesnt work, and gives me some *** ppracer error: Couldn't initialize video: Couldn't find matching GLX visual (Success)
[08:06] <m0u5e>  error
[08:06] <GBenemy> this is the first i'm ever going to use it
[08:06] <Bucketface> Oh well.
[08:06] <bullgard4> n2diy: Thank you for commenting.
[08:06] <GBenemy> ever
[08:06] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, PClinuxOS is free because you can read the code and change it
[08:06] <Bucketface> It probably wouldn't have taken any of you so long.
[08:06] <Bucketface> But it was pretty awesome.
[08:06] <n2diy> bullgard4: no problem.
[08:06] <kmak> gletob: change instances of 'feisty' to 'gutsy' in /etc/apt/sources.list then run aptitude -d dist-upgrade
[08:06] <Bucketface> Sorry for getting all excited.
[08:06] <admin__> hello
[08:07] <Bucketface> Wait
[08:07] <Bucketface> Hello D
[08:07] <Bucketface> Wrong channel
[08:07] <admin__> i have ubuntu 5.1 installed
[08:07] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, the problem comes from the word "free" in english... in spanish (for exmaple) there are 2 words: libre and gratis
[08:07] <admin__> how can i update that to ubuntu 6.1
[08:07] <GBenemy> yeah
[08:07] <damntech> oh boy you guys are jumping on my rant!
[08:07] <GBenemy> libre = free as in free to do what you want
[08:07] <GBenemy> gratis = free as in you don't have to pay
[08:07] <leo_rockw> GBenemy, exactly
[08:08] <kmak> gletob: sorry, no '-d' option for aptitude dist-upgrade
[08:08] <[matty] > Why buy linux when you can get it free?
[08:08] <kmak> gletob: don't know what i was thinking
[08:08] <GBenemy> "estoy libre" or "eso es gratis"
[08:08] <n2diy> admin__: you have to upgrade through each version, you can't jump versions. But you could to a fresh install, but make sure you have your important stuff backed up.
[08:08] <leo_rockw> [matty] , i think redhat is paid and it is a really good server solution
[08:08] <m0u5e> how do i check if 3d acceleration / direct rendering for my graphics card is on?
[08:08] <Jason5876> why buy linux when it is for free?ditto.
[08:08] <kmak> admin: ubuntu 5.1???
[08:08] <faileas> [matty] : support
[08:09] <[matty] > Yes, support ofcourse... =)
[08:09] <Jason5876> I bought suse 9.1 though
[08:09] <m0u5e> preferably through the terminal ^
[08:09] <n2diy> Jason5876: who is buying linux?
[08:09] <Jason5876> no one now.
[08:09] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, glxinfo | grep direct direct rendering
[08:09] <mattg> >>>  UDF Support???  <<<
[08:10] <nj786> does anybody know how to add songs from gtkpod
[08:10] <nj786> to ur ipod
[08:10] <GBenemy> I think this is going to be a problem
[08:10] <n2diy> Jason5876: I bough the books for RH5.2 and Mandrake 7.0, but the software was included with them.
[08:10] <GBenemy> It's only downloaded 140MB
[08:10] <GBenemy> and i gotta go in amin
[08:10] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, actually... glxinfo | grep rendering
[08:10] <GBenemy> or else my parent's will get up and catch me on the computer
[08:10] <GBenemy> which is a bad thing
[08:10] <Jason5876> I bought suse 9.1 in april 2004 when I was a noob.
[08:11] <[matty] > Just a simple question... Do you need antivirus with Ubuntu.. I guess not. but better to ask...
[08:11] <mainer> lol
[08:11] <Jason5876> RH 5.2 in a book too.
[08:11] <mattg> this is ridiculous.  i'm switching to Sabayon Linux 3.4e.  nobody can help me with UDF support, nothing on the net is fixing it.  i'm done dinkin' around with ububtu
[08:11] <kmak> matty: not really, but if you're paranoid install clamav
[08:11] <mattg> ubuntu*
[08:11] <n2diy> matty, not unless you are serving email, otherwise your cool.
[08:11] <leo_rockw> [matty] , you don't really need one because right now there are no virus for ubuntu. if you double boot it may be useful, tho
[08:11] <mainer> [matty] : if you share files with windows/mac users good idea
[08:11] <facelifted> hello world
[08:11] <Jason5876> I was a noob, was'nt a gentoo ready user yet.
[08:12] <Jason5876> or debian for that matter.
[08:12] <[matty] > THANKS!
[08:12] <outlaw686> not really but look in you synaptec package manager, or add-remove application on your apps bar
[08:12] <leo_rockw> hello facelifted... have you been learning to program lately? lol
[08:12] <facelifted> how can i remove all the routes in terminal?
[08:12] <d4rkmonkey> Anyone know of a good program to use lightscribe functionality? i have two right now, but one is super simple, and one originally came in a .rpm and doesn't work very well IMO...
[08:12] <yourdaddysdaddy> [matie]  if your paranoid you could install snort and base
[08:12] <facelifted> leo_rockw, yes :D
[08:13] <leo_rockw> facelifted, that "hello world" is more standard than ooxml haha
[08:13] <kmak> mattg: well, shit i was gonna help, but you seem pretty impatient!!
[08:13] <outlaw686> d4rkmokey: it took me a while to spell your name but do I have a solution for you! http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[08:13] <[matty] > thanks God I'm not paranoid.. And ofcourse I don't have Win on this machine.-
[08:13] <outlaw686> it was a godsend (and still is)
[08:13] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: do you know how to check if 3d acceleration is enabled? -_-;
[08:14] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[08:14] <astro76> m0u5e, yeah lots of people have these sorts of trouble with compiz, being as it's still very alpha level
[08:14] <d4rkmonkey> outlaw686 I installed it fine, it just doesn't work that well... I had to convert it to .deb
[08:14] <arun> anyone running beryl here?
[08:14] <facelifted> arun i do
[08:14] <arun> facelifted: how does it run?
[08:15] <m0u5e> astro76: compiz fusion 0.5.2 stable was released a while ago :X
[08:15] <GBenemy> astro76: 30%
[08:15] <valmarko> Klamav is scanning and already found two virus/problems. It's called Broken.Executable . Is that a virus or some other kind of problem ?
[08:15] <Nanoer> arun: I have it on my linux box why?
[08:15] <m0u5e> astro76: compiz fusion 0.5.2 err sorry not stable*
[08:15] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, if you get a yes then you can smile and play open arena to celebrate
[08:15] <astro76> m0u5e, you might try #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects
[08:15] <Meroigo> m0u5e, write glxgears
[08:15] <arun> just asking.. i was running it on kubuntu, and there were some kde-specific bugs
[08:15] <Meroigo> in terminal
[08:15] <nj786> how do you add songs to your ipod using GTKPOD
[08:15] <m0u5e> Meroigo: its errory*
[08:15] <thedash> I seem to have this uncanny knack of breaking operating systesm
[08:15] <astro76> !ipod | nj786
[08:15] <ubotu> nj786: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[08:16] <Meroigo> well 3d acceleration works for me and the gears smoothly turns for me..
[08:16] <leo_rockw> thedash, do you live in redmon? lol
[08:16] <Meroigo> if it doesn't work maybe your 3d doesn't work =(
[08:16] <nathan> how do I make a shortcut for a terminal program
[08:16] <facelifted> arun im sorry i followed a website to install it and then i clicked Applications --> System Tools i found it there and just click and click :) im sorry i forgot the website
[08:16] <astro76> nj786, I guess that link doesn't give much actual info on gtkpod though
[08:16] <thedash> leo_rockw:: nope :)
[08:16] <n2diy> Redmond
[08:16] <m0u5e> Meroigo: when i move the window, it gets stuck
[08:17] <kapo> arun :alt +f2
[08:17] <nj786> astro76: no it doesnt
[08:17] <arun> facelifted: i know how to install it :) i'm just asking does it run well on ubuntu?
[08:17] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, do you see the gears turning smoothly?
[08:17] <nathan> how do I make a shortcut for a terminal program?
[08:17] <m0u5e> Meroigo: it renders fine initally, but once i move the window around, my decorator doesnt move with it
[08:17] <leo_rockw> !repeat | nathan
[08:17] <ubotu> nathan: 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
[08:17] <astro76> nathan, you can right click on the terminal launcher in applications->accessories and right click and select add to panel or add to desktop
[08:17] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: its... semi smoothly lol
[08:17] <Meroigo> m0u5e, dunno why... :/ my knowledge about linux and 3d acceleration on it isn't very good... so i haven't got any advices for you, sorry =(
[08:17] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, what numbers are you getting?
[08:17] <nathan> astro76: i mean a program that needs to be in terminal
[08:17] <n2diy> nathan: write a bash script, the equivilant of a bat file in dos.
[08:17] <[matty] > thanks guys.... bbl.
[08:18] <Meroigo> and now I got to go to bed, have been up all night and now it's 8:17 am in the morning, hah..
[08:18] <Meroigo> so, seeya
[08:18] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: framrate into the 500s lol
[08:18] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: problem is, is that it flickers...
[08:18] <nathan> my question is how do i make an icon for irssi
[08:18] <facelifted> i think it didnt run well cause sometimes when i run lots of programs the beryl exits
[08:18] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: and it doesnt move with my decorator
[08:18] <astro76> nathan, if you right click desktop->create launcher, one of the options is "application in terminal"
[08:18] <facelifted> havent used it for few months already
[08:18] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, decorator as in compiz/beryl/fusion?
[08:19] <mainer> nathan: gnome-terminal -e irssi (example) could use any terminal that meets your needs
[08:19] <admin__> hello
[08:19] <nathan> astro76: no it's not
[08:19] <leo_rockw> hello admin__
[08:19] <admin__> how can i update ubuntu 5.1 to 6?
[08:19] <astro76> nathan, you right clicked and selected "Create Launcher..." ?
[08:19] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: yeah, im using compiz w/ emerald
[08:19] <astro76> nathan, and are you using 7.04?
[08:19] <outlaw686> nathan: if you have it in your menu you can right click on it and either add the launcher to your desktop or to your panel
[08:19] <babuspidy> can anyone help me configuring audio input device for using skype
[08:20] <nathan> astro76: you're thinking of alt-f2
[08:20] <astro76> nathan, err no
[08:20] <nathan> astro76: make launcher doesn't have that
[08:20] <outlaw686> nathan: or just drag it
[08:20] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: okay i fixed the move problem by disabling lazy move, ... but it still doesnt render correctly with my "wiggle" plugin
[08:20] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, afaik... you can't get aceleration while using compiz
[08:20] <nathan> outlaw686: drag what
[08:20] <m0u5e> m0u5e: but ppracer used to work even with compiz-fusion enabled :X
[08:20] <astro76> nathan, there's a Type dropdown list with the options "application", "application in terminal" and "file"
[08:20] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, i read smth yday that you can't use direct rendering on the same display as compiz
[08:20] <nathan> wow thanks
[08:21] <leo_rockw> m0u5e, i'm not 100% sure, tho
[08:21] <cjsstables> hey all need some help on ubuntu install.  I was following directions from this web site to have an LVM install
[08:21] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: but it worked for a while with ppracer... until i upgraded to the intel graphics driver
[08:21] <m0u5e> leo_rockw: T_T;
[08:21] <outlaw686> np :) as with anything the trick to learning linux is having something to through other than your laptop
[08:21] <cjsstables> http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem
[08:21] <babuspidy> can anyone help me configuring audio input device for using skype
[08:21] <arun> !flash
[08:21] <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

[08:24] <Verilium> Hi there.  With apt-get (or anything else), is there a way to fet only 1 file from a package?
[08:24] <Verilium> err..  fetch.
[08:24] <leo_rockw> cjsstables, if it is not long just paste it here for all the rest to see
[08:24] <dissection> Anyone here tried setting a Linux Counterstrike Server on his Ubuntu Machine?
[08:24] <cjsstables> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
[08:24] <outlaw686> verilium, man or info before apt-get or any program helps you out alot
[08:25] <cjsstables> can anyone help out with this error
[08:25] <intelikey> so anyone know, if init runs a script that calls:  apt-get dist-upgrade -y  :where will the output be ?   so i can check up on it, every few hours...   ?
[08:25] <Verilium> Hmm, there's something in the man page about that?  Must have missed it.
[08:25] <mainer> cjsstables: sudo chroot <mount-point>
[08:25] <Bjornalf> how do i check what version of ubuntu i have installed?
[08:26] <xtknight> Bjornalf, lsb_release -a
[08:26] <cjsstables> yep I did that.  the command I gave was sudo chroot /target
[08:26] <n2diy> cjsstables: yes, substitue chroot with sudo, and if that does't work, try ./filename
[08:26] <outlaw686> verilium, apt-get -d will download the package only
[08:27] <Verilium> outlaw686:  Hmm, I suppose that's a way to do it.
[08:27] <BrendanW> Why can't I move a file to usr/share/themes?
[08:27] <Bjornalf> ok and i know ATI's drivers suck but since my gaming rig died i'm stuck with a compaq as my only machine (besides my well outdated server).. how do i install ati's drivers?
[08:27] <doug__> how do i get firefox videos to play the sound

[08:36] <facelifted> set -f
[08:36] <facelifted> what does globbing mean?
[08:36] <outlaw686> cuzz, your best bet (the way i know how to do it) is to install gparted( gnome partition editor), select your drive in the top right. remove all partitions on your flash drive and apply it. Then click on the unallocated space, select new  and create it as a fat16 partition. once that is done and applied right click on the partition and click manage flags. set it to "/" which is the boot and you should be good.

[08:46] <BrendanW> How would I do that?
[08:46] <yourdaddysdaddy> That could have gone better :p
[08:46] <leo_rockw> doug__, that happened to me. i'm not sure what i did to solve it, tho. i think i installed the latest version of alsa
[08:46] <BrendanW> doug__: reset.
[08:46] <BrendanW> Mine did the same thing until I reset.
[08:46] <leo_rockw> BrendanW, i don't use gnome, so i wouldn't be able to guide you

[08:49] <slater> Is anyone sucessfully dual booting on an asus p5b mobo? I have a feeling jmicron is to blame.. Essentially grub cant see my ide drive at boot where as sata is fine. Once the system is up (feisty) the ide disk is mounted fine though...
[08:50] <doug__> how do i make it where im in the dsktop at the term is it cd ~/dekstop ?
[08:51] <BFrank> yup
[08:51] <slater> I've gone as far as trying differant hd locations via the grub menu but it just cant see this ide drive (XP). Any ideas?
[08:51] <Cuzz> I am having the same troubles with p5k MB. I can not get windows to install, have you tied updating the  bios. I no expert, just asking out of experience
[08:51] <jmdc> doug__: cd ~/Desktop
[08:52] <jmdc> its case sensitive
[08:52] <dijix> in gnome, when you set the transparency of a panel, shouldn't items on it also be transparent?  I seem to remember it being that way when I set them originally
[08:52] <slater> Cuzz: That's a very good point. I have windows installed fine on the ide drive (Had to install as only drive connected) just yeah grub can't see it. I'll jump over to blowz and try a bios update. Cheers.
[08:52] <doug__> jmdc thats what i ment just mispelled it jmdc when i do that i get bash: cd ~/desktop: No such file or directory
[08:53] <BFrank> he said to use Desktop
[08:53] <BFrank> instead of desktop

[08:54] <Flannel> soulrider_: in /etc
[08:54] <dijix> riniver: you need to delete a line from your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[08:55] <slater> Cuzz: as a side note, if that mobo is similar to that one, take a look at your sata/ide setup in bios. I had similar issues and had to do a little tweaking. (Ie AHCI mode for sata) That jmicron is a real pain though. Won't even boot dapper or <.

[08:57] <Cuzz> outlaw: Is gparted on ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso?
[08:57] <slater> Cuzz: Not sure on the windows issue but if that mobo has the jmicron go straight for Feisty. There was an issue with the chipset whereby like you say the installer just wont run.
[08:57] <Flannel> Kenyro: why won't you have an internet connection?  (I imagine that'd be the first thing to figure out how to fix)
[08:58] <Kenyro> because I'll need to have the network drivers installed, at least in Windows I have to..
[08:58] <Nubbie> hi guys, i have a problem with my swap partition. it's not enabled after boot! i need to go into gparted and turn swapon every time i turn my computer on. can somebody help me figure this out please?
[08:59] <jmdc> westly: the directory structure is different. /bin and /usr/bin have most of the executables. /etc is configuration files
[08:59] <astro76> Kenyro, wireless?
[08:59] <voradams> Now this is anoying, i installed both kubuntu and buntu 7.04, i know that the usb beklin wireless adapter works "out of the box" after checking the webpage, i can see my wireless router, but can not connect with and without wpa encryption. any ideas people?
[08:59] <Kenyro> nope
[08:59] <astro76> Kenyro, if it's wired it will just work in linux
[08:59] <westly> jmdc: I am looking for the data file assciate with the program homebank
[09:00] <astro76> westly, this will list all files in a package: dpkg -L <packagename>
[09:00] <Kenyro> good to hear, well thank you all very much for your help. I'll get a dvd and pray for KUbuntu to work... KUbuntu is somewhat better than Ubuntu, right?
[09:00] <nathan> how do you change the background for where it says File Edit View, etc... no links to long boring pages please!
[09:00] <Nubbie> !swap > Nubbie
[09:00] <astro76> westly, you can do it in synaptic too
[09:01] <Nubbie> kenyro: no, it just has a different GUI. it's personal taste.
[09:01] <astro76> Kenyro, no, it's Ubuntu with kde, and either can be added from the other
[09:01] <westly> I need to look for the data that I have save in XP My documents
[09:01] <TylerJGillies> where is my Xclients file located at?
[09:01] <Nubbie> westly: so mount the drive.
[09:01] <Kenyro> ah, good to know, I read kde is supposed to be more stable
[09:01] <Nubbie> kenyro: i'd debate that.
[09:02] <Coward> Hey
[09:02] <westly> I am actually looking for the data that I have save in linux just like winxp my documents, is there any such directory?
[09:02] <Nubbie> westly: your home directory.
[09:02] <slater> westly: /home/username
[09:02] <jmdc> kenyro: you're about to stir up one of the worst flame wars in the world
[09:02] <astro76> westly, gnucash (and all programs really) will store data under your home directory (~/),
[09:02] <mainer> or try /home/username/Desktop
[09:02] <Kenyro> I truly apologize :S ^^
[09:03] <westly> I used homebank which install in add/remove, but cannot find the data that have saved
[09:03] <westly> "homebank"
[09:03] <Nubbie> Kenyro: there's a reason canonical use GNOME as their default. but feel free to test out lots of different window managers. its fun :)
[09:03] <slater> It's ok Kenyro, xubuntu is the best anyway ;)
[09:03] <slater> Hehe
[09:03] <Kenyro> I hate you guys -.- I'm confused
[09:04] <astro76> Kenyro, your best bet might be to install Ubuntu, then install the kubuntu-desktop package and try both (you can do the same with xubuntu-desktop)
[09:04] <jmdc> kenyro: just be cool ... picking between gnome and kde is one of the biggest flames on the interent
[09:04] <Nubbie> kenyro: unlike windows or OSX, you're allowed to use different GUIs on top of the base system. each was made for a different purpose, and each has their pros and cons. test them out.
[09:04] <slater> Linux = choice. That's really all there is to it. You get many many more options generally. Like someone mentioned above it's all down to taste.
[09:04] <MadViolinis1> G'day, I've been having some troubles with Feisty freezing on me. It seems to mainly happen when using Firefox, but have had it happen when using Opera. I've got the system monitor boxes and nothing seems to show up there. I've taken a look at the log but can't really see anything. The only way to unfreeze is to restart. Any ideas?
[09:05] <m0u5e> anyone else use a i810/845/855GM graphics card in here?
[09:05] <voradams> please people, some wifi help here. this usb wireless adapter should run out of the box, why cant not get a dhcp autoconfig here?
[09:05] <TylerJGillies> kde is for kids
[09:05] <astro76> TylerJGillies, and we were doing so good :(
[09:05] <Nubbie> m0u5e: try asking your question.
[09:05] <mainer> Kenyro: they're all good but different,and mileage varys,kde=more windows looking normally,but anything can be themed if you know how
[09:05] <TylerJGillies> astro76: sorry couldn't resist
[09:05] <astro76> lol
[09:05] <Nubbie> kde is for people missing their windows XP lol
[09:05] <arooni> hey folks
[09:05] <jmdc> westly: I haven't heard of homebank before. Is there a windows version that you used to use?
[09:05] <m0u5e> Nubbie: i was just curious whether to what kind of experiences they've had using the i810 driver, of they've gone ahead and tried the intel driver
[09:06] <Kenyro> Okay, much better. Having a lot of bad time with performance, hangups here and there and so on, that's why I'm looking for a mix of beauty and performance, especially when gaming comes in consideration
[09:06] <arooni> folks
[09:06] <m0u5e> Nubbie: cause, it seems like my system kept crashing using the new intel driverset
[09:06] <jf> Nubbie: lol
[09:06] <arooni> can i resize NTFS partitions from within gparted?
[09:06] <jmdc> aroon: no.
[09:06] <Nubbie> m0u5e: i use the intel graphics drivers with tons of success.
[09:06] <petterah> hello, has anything with the fonts changed in gutsy? It looks like the font from fedora 7, gnome.... it looks really nice. Not sure how to explain, but the fonts are bigger, and more smooth?
[09:06] <TylerJGillies> arooni: you _can_ i don't recommend it
[09:06] <westly> jmdc: is a linux version I install in feisty fawn add/remove
[09:06] <m0u5e> Nubbie: really? i dont know why but on my computer i get a lot more flickers than i did with the i810 graphics driver
[09:07] <arooni> TylerJGillies, why not
[09:07] <m0u5e> Nubbie: i'm currently using compiz-fusion 0.5.2 w/ emerald
[09:07] <Flannel> petterah: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy questions, thanks.
[09:07] <Nubbie> petterah: you can change the font in system > preferences > fonts
[09:07] <TylerJGillies> arooni: i don't recommend NTFS at all actually ;)
[09:07] <nathan> how do you change the background for where it says File Edit View, etc... no links to long boring pages please!
[09:07] <TylerJGillies> arooni: no journaling
[09:07] <Nubbie> m0u5e: i'm still using beryl... and i'm not having any problems at all.
[09:08] <BrendanM> So I have a machine that I was using as a LAMP server for a while, but now I don't want Apache and MySQL and stuff to start automatically anymore. How would I remove them from the autostarted applications, but leave my configuration intact?
[09:08] <Nubbie> TylerJGillies: NTFS does have journalling. fat32 doesn't.
[09:08] <jmdc> westly: are you trying to get a file you created with windows?
[09:08] <m0u5e> Nubbie: do you know the specifics as to what the difference between the two drivers are? -_-; ive checked the change logs, but except for extra support with newer cards, they should be nearly identical?
[09:08] <petterah> Nubbie, ok thanks, but I was talking about default fonts, looks the same on every screenshot I've seen from previews :)
[09:08] <decay> My internet connection keeps droping every 2-4 mins. any thuoghs?
[09:08] <TylerJGillies> Nubbie: oh.
[09:09] <Nubbie> m0u5e: iirc, the intel drivers got direct rendering to work for me.
[09:09] <petterah> BrendanM, you could use update-rc.d
[09:09] <astro76> m0u5e, as far as I know, the intel driver is a complete rewrite, so definitely not nearly identical
[09:09] <westly> jmdc: no . I install throught synpat. used it in ubuntu. cannot find the data I have key in the software. I wanna copy the data to used it in office
[09:09] <m0u5e> astro76: really? :X
[09:09] <astro76> decay, wireless?
[09:09] <Nubbie> petterah: yeah you can change the default font in that font dialog.
[09:09] <decay> astro76, yes
[09:09] <BrendanM> petterah, how would I do that?
[09:09] <astro76> m0u5e, intel will be default in the future when it is considered more stable
[09:09] <astro76> decay, what card?
[09:10] <m0u5e> astro76: ah, okay, ill wait then... cause im definitely feeling the stability issue -_-;
[09:10] <nathan> how do you change the background image for where it says File Edit View, etc..
[09:10] <Nubbie> m0u5e: it's most likely compiz crashing your system, look for help with them or in #ubuntu-effects
[09:10] <petterah> BrendanM, im not sure of the exact syntax, but something like  update-rc.d -f <file> remove
[09:10] <m0u5e> Nubbie: no, compiz has been fine under the i810 driver set, its only when i tried the intel driver that it gave me problems
[09:10] <decay> astro76, entgear wg311t
[09:10] <petterah> BrendanM, <file> is the file/service
[09:10] <Flannel> nathan: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArt/Tutorials
[09:10] <MadViolinis1> G'day, I've been having some troubles with Feisty freezing on me. It seems to mainly happen when using Firefox, but have had it happen when using Opera. I've got the system monitor boxes and nothing seems to show up there. I've taken a look at the log but can't really see anything. The only way to unfreeze is to restart. Any ideas?
[09:10] <petterah> BrendanM, have a look under /etc/init.d :)
[09:10] <BrendanM> hmm, ok. So there's not like a text file somewhere that just lists all the autostarting apps?
[09:11] <Flannel> nathan: and, really, you don't have to repeat.  It doesn't get you anywhere.
[09:11] <BrendanM> oh, or is that the one?
[09:11] <m0u5e> astro76: it kept crashing whenever it faded to grey, like when gksudo password dialogs popped up
[09:11] <Flannel> BrendanM: Sort of.  It's a few directories.
[09:11] <Flannel> BrendanM: what are you trying to do?
[09:11] <petterah> BrendanM, update-rc.d is a utility to handle the symlinks under /etc/init.d :)

[09:11] <matti> Morning :)
[09:11] <m0u5e> astro76: darn... and ppracer used to work too... now it doesnt work >_<
[09:12] <GBenemy> NOOOOOOOOOOOO
[09:12] <shaqy_lin> hyy
[09:12] <petterah> BrendanM, if you want to disable apache, you'll have to type      update-rc.d -f apache remove
[09:12] <Nubbie> hi guys, i have a problem with my swap partition. it's not enabled after boot! i need to go into gparted and turn swapon every time i turn my computer on. can somebody help me figure this out please?
[09:12] <jmdc> westly: sorry, I misunderstood you at first. when you saved your data in homebank, you had to pick a location.
[09:12] <Flannel> Nubbie: is swap in your fstab?
[09:12] <petterah> BrendanM, makes sense?
[09:12] <astro76> m0u5e, the question is, why when you go back to the previously working i810, is it now not working
[09:12] <m0u5e> astro76: yeah it doesnt work anymore -_-;
[09:12] <jmdc> westly: do you remember doing that? If not, try going to places->home folder
[09:12] <BrendanM> Flannel, I was trying to set it so that Apache/SQL/etc don't autostart
[09:12] <Nubbie> Flannel yeah i believe so, that was the first thing i checked. i'll give you my fstab output though.
[09:12] <GBenemy> adtro76: 622.6mb / 697.9mb (89% complete) and guess what? my fucking ISP timed out, disconnected me and now I have to start all over again
[09:12] <Cuzz> Hi can someone please help with this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MobileWirelessBroadband I am stuck. It says i must "sudo apt-get install libc6-dev", but i dont have a connection to the internet.
[09:13] <GBenemy> **astro76
[09:13] <m0u5e> astro76: i tried it right before i switched, and it worked almost perfectly (just with a little blinking from compiz-fusion)
[09:13] <Flannel> BrendanM: right.  BUM will do that for you, or you can do it manually by following the stuff on the linked pages
[09:13] <admin__> hello, how can i install dual boot ubuntu and xp?
[09:13] <astro76> GBenemy, that's rough
[09:13] <m0u5e> astro76: any idea why i'd work before, but not now?
[09:13] <linoleum> hi folks, I was wondering if there is an application similar to microsoft OneNote, or Basket, but for the Gnome desktop environement ?
[09:13] <Flannel> !dualboot | admin__
[09:13] <ubotu> admin__: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty
[09:13] <BrendanM> ok, cool. I'll try to do it manually first to be hardcore, and then if I can't get it, I'll try BUM
[09:13] <astro76> m0u5e, I can't think of any, I'm assuming you restarted your x server after you changed back to i810
[09:13] <m0u5e> astro76: it just gives me the error cannot find matching GLX visual now
[09:14] <m0u5e> astro76:  yeah :(
[09:14] <Nubbie> Flannel: !!! i just checked my fstab again, it's throwing something weird about my swap. check my pastebin....
[09:14] <Flannel> Nubbie: Where's your pastebin?
[09:14] <TylerJGillies> BrendanM: i think masochistic is the word you're looking for
[09:14] <Nubbie> Flannel: http://pastebin.ca/670979
[09:14] <slater> Viola! Bios upgrade on asus p5b fixed the grub issue. Thanks Cuzz.
[09:15] <MadViolinis1> G'day, I've been having some troubles with Feisty freezing on me. It seems to mainly happen when using Firefox, but have had it happen when using Opera. I've got the system monitor boxes and nothing seems to show up there. I've taken a look at the log but can't really see anything. The only way to unfreeze is to restart. Any ideas?
[09:15] <Nubbie> Flannel: gparted is telling me my swap partition is /dev/sda3
[09:15] <UBUNTU01> http://antigop-k4.narod.ru/ubuntu.html
[09:15] <Flannel> Nubbie: That UUID looks funky.  What UUID does blkid give you for that?  Also, if you change that to /dev/sda3 instead of the UUID, does it work?
[09:16] <Cuzz> Cool, Can you dual boot now? Thinking of swapping this p5k crap for the p5b
[09:16] <Nubbie> Flannel: and after I enable swap, it functions correctly.
[09:16] <TylerJGillies> MadViolinis1: do your cap and scroll lock lights blink when it happens?
[09:16] <admin__> ubotu: i already have ubuntu installed, can i setup dual boot with xp?
[09:16] <MadViolinis1> not certain, haven't tried it
[09:16] <slater> Cuzz: Yup, working as intended ;)
[09:16] <Flannel> admin__: Sure, just install windows.  You'll want to give it some free space first though.
[09:16] <Nubbie> Flannel: i'd just remount with sudo mount -a correct? see if it mounts that way?
[09:16] <Flannel> Nubbie: aye
[09:16] <wolferine> admin__, ubotu is a bot
[09:16] <m0u5e> admin__: it should be able to dual boot as of default with XP, when grub is  launching press any button to select OS
[09:17] <MadViolinis1> will try next time it happens... but I don't know when that will be. sometimes it can be a couple of days between freezes, others like today, it's frozen 3 times on me in a short period of time
[09:17] <m0u5e> admin__: oh nvm, i thought you already had Xp installed and just installed ubuntu
[09:17] <Nubbie> Flannel: yeah blkid threw a different UUID. can i replace the UUID in my fstab with what that output?
[09:17] <Flannel> Nubbie: yeah
[09:18] <astro76> MadViolinis1, when it freezes see if you can restart x by typing Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[09:18] <Nubbie> Flannel: k i'll let you know if it remounts.
[09:18] <GBenemy> astro76: Now I have to wait another hour because I got timed out and it stopped the download, only 60mb away from completion

[09:19] <MadViolinis1> cheers astro... hmm... that could be it now that I think about it... didn't happen before I got my new graphics card...
[09:19] <Flannel> linoleum: Have you tried tomboy?
[09:19] <ike_> Is there a way to have the default grub.conf from the installation regenerated
[09:19] <astro76> GBenemy, try using wget to download, it can resume I think
[09:19] <GBenemy> what's wget?
[09:19] <nathan> how do you change the background image for where it says File Edit View, etc..
[09:19] <GBenemy> and i can't resume from this because i didn't use wget in the first place
[09:20] <astro76> GBenemy, command line downloading tool, wget http://whatever...
[09:20] <astro76> GBenemy, maybe you could
[09:20] <easy_> 
[09:20] <astro76> GBenemy, also there is gwget for a GUI version
[09:20] <Flannel> ike_: What did you change in it?
[09:20] <wolferine> !jp | easy_
[09:20] <ubotu> easy_:  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp 
[09:20] <GBenemy> "Windows cannot find "wget""
[09:20] <Nubbie> Flannel: i think the ultimate test would be to reboot and see if it mounts upon boot. thanks, and i'll be right back.
[09:20] <astro76> GBenemy, right, I forgot you are on windows
[09:20] <decay> How do i change the toolbar icon?
[09:20] <GBenemy> yeah windows sucks
[09:20] <easy_> chinese

[09:21] <easy_> i am not a jp
[09:21] <wolferine> anyone know chinese ?

[09:21] <ubotu> easy_: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[09:21] <ike_> Flannel: I moved the Vista item to the top, then apt-got the newest kerenl and it wiped out the Vista entry.
[09:21] <wolferine> thanks astro76
[09:21] <Flannel> linoleum: Alright.  I haven't used either.  Just use BasKet, if that's what you know/like.
[09:21] <easy_> thank you!
[09:22] <Flannel> ike_: Right.  You've gotta put stuff you don't want erased at the bottom after the warning to put stuff below that line.
[09:22] <ike_> Flannel: Yeah, I'm good at learning this stuff the hard way.
[09:22] <linoleum> Flannel: yes, but that's why I asked here, since gnome is the default desktop for ubuntu , if there was an alternative to basket , but more integrated in gnome (gtk ,etc..)
[09:23] <Flannel> linoleum: wikipedia hints that basKet is probably your best bet.
[09:23] <Cuzz> Hi can someone please help with this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MobileWirelessBroadband I am stuck. It says i must "sudo apt-get install libc6-dev", but i dont have a connection to the internet.
[09:23] <SteamMachine> Hi everyone.
[09:23] <linoleum> Flannel: ok, thank you. Well I think I ll stick with basket then.
[09:23] <Flannel> ike_: If you're looking to put Vista back, no, there's no way to do that.  Well, not automated.  And I don't know the correct method for adding Vista entries.  I'd try google
[09:24] <Cuzz> thanx outlaw, i fixed the USB issue
[09:24] <jf> Cuzz:start with internet prob first
[09:24] <ike_> Flannel: Ok, thanks.  I'll keep fiddling with it.
[09:24] <Cuzz> i need tose pakages to make the internet work
[09:24] <Flannel> ike_: You can make vista the default (even if it's at the bottom) though.
[09:25] <MadViolinis1> hello again
[09:25] <GBenemy> well, I gtg
[09:25] <Nubbie> Flannel: thank you very much sah! i didn't know about blkid.
[09:26] <GBenemy> thanks for your help astro76
[09:26] <astro76> GBenemy, no problem, come back when it's time to install :)
[09:26] <Nubbie> Flannel: it's nice after giving so much advice in here people are able to help me when i have a problem, very much appreciated.
[09:26] <GBenemy> i will
[09:26] <GBenemy> I have no idea how to use linux lol :P
[09:26] <jf> Cuzz: cannot apt-get without your int.  Try using another comp. for necessary files?  What is the prob. with connection.
[09:26] <jmdc> download the packages on a machine with a good network connection. Put them on a flash drive or burn them to cd. Then install with sudo dpkg --install <package>
[09:26] <MadViolinis1> comp just froze again, which allowed me to try out the suggestions. Scroll lock or caps lock lights don't come up when frozen (i disabled the caps lock key, so that's probably why, but the scroll lock kight doesn't come up in normal operation either). Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X also didn't work
[09:26] <Nubbie> Flannel: it mounted no problem automatically.

[09:27] <Cuzz> or can i transfer them with USB?
[09:27] <jmdc> cuzz or use a flash drive
[09:27] <jmdc> yeah, exactly

[09:27] <jmdc> anything you can think of

[09:28] <linoleum> Flannel: I m installing basket at the moment, but it installs me a lot of KDE dependencies ... that's the problem
[09:28] <astro76> MadViolinis1, no problems before you changed cards?

[09:29] <MadViolinis1> nah... was running on the mobo graphics
[09:29] <Nubbie> nixrookie: doesn't recognise it as in it doesn't boot at all, or there's issues with it?
[09:29] <astro76> MadViolinis1, seems highly likely the problem is do to your graphics card as you mentioned
[09:29] <astro76> *due
[09:29] <jmdc> linoleum: its kind of the price you pay...
[09:29] <nixrookie> it boots fine with it. I just can't get compiz fusion to work
[09:30] <MadViolinis1> so what options do I have?
[09:30] <Nubbie> nixrookie: well then the problem isn't ubuntu or your graphics card, it's compiz lol.
[09:30] <alam_> 23456
[09:30] <nixrookie> I tried installing the new nvidia drivers for linux and it won't start
[09:30] <Nubbie> nixrookie: make sure you have direct rendering enabled.
[09:30] <nixrookie> envy doesn't work either
[09:30] <nixrookie> says it doesn't support tribes 5
[09:30] <nixrookie> which is understandable
[09:31] <nixrookie> nubbie: I do. But it screws up my x-config when I enable it. I'll wait for the final release
[09:31] <nixrookie> I'm fine with feisty
[09:32] <astro76> nixrookie, ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:32] <slater> How long till Gutsy is out btw?
[09:32] <Nubbie> nixrookie: feisty is fine. a fine fawn she is.
[09:32] <astro76> slater, october (7.10 = 2007 October)
[09:32] <Nubbie> astro76: #ubuntu+1-effects ROFL
[09:32] <astro76> hah
[09:32] <slater> Thanks astro76.
[09:32] <yagami> Hi, i am having this problem loading files on firefox. the files are just html files- a cisco tutorial actually. but for some reason web browser's telling me file's not found.
[09:32] <nixrookie> thanks astro
[09:33] <mjgoins> can anyone think of why X11 forwarding over ssh wouldn't work (X11 options are turned on on both hosts, and -Y is being used...)
[09:33] <Nubbie> slater: don't expect it october first either, expect it near the end of the month.
[09:33] <astro76> mjgoins, hrm, I can do ssh -Y without setting any X options
[09:34] <Nubbie> ssh -Y connects to an x session?
[09:34] <BoP> w_jablay
[09:34] <astro76> Nubbie, it will start an ssh shell session, then if you run a gui program, it opens! very cool
[09:34] <thedash> anybody famililar with alltray ?
[09:35] <astro76> Nubbie, you can even run nautilus, and double click files and they will open with the program on the remote computer, displayed locally
[09:35] <Ahadiel> astro76, wow, that is cool
[09:35] <Nubbie> astro76: so if you started gdm in that shell, it would start gdm on the remote computer?
[09:35] <mjgoins> astro76: yeah that's usually what happens. I try xeyes or xclock and I just get nothing. the commands just sort of hang until killed
[09:35] <astro76> Nubbie, I'm not sure you can go as far as gdm
[09:35] <Nubbie> astro76: i've been toying with the idea of thin clients, save my laptop some battery and years lol.
[09:36] <astro76> Nubbie, for a whole desktop session, typically vnc is uses
[09:36] <jmdc> astro76: what version of x are you connecting to and from?
[09:36] <Nubbie> astro76: ahhh vnc :(
[09:36] <Nubbie> 7.3 i'd imagine.
[09:36] <astro76> jmdc, Feisty on both systems
[09:36] <astro76> 7.2 I think is in Feisty
[09:36] <Nubbie> oh is it?
[09:36] <Flannel> linoleum: It will do that, as obviously it requires a bunch of KDE things to run.  They'll only get loaded into memory when you're using basket.  Otherwise they're just taking up HDD space.
[09:36] <Nubbie> :l
[09:37] <astro76> yep 7.2
[09:37] <Nubbie> Flannel: actually you're wrong on that count i believe gnome will load the K libraries on load in anticipation.
[09:37] <Nubbie> Flannel: i'm no expert though D:
[09:37] <mjgoins> well, X11 forwarding is great and all, but for me it's simply not working. with no clues as to why. I don't even know where I would begin to test
[09:37] <Flannel> Nubbie: Not until you load the KDE apps.  Gnome doesn't load libs anyway, the kernel would.
[09:38] <Nubbie> mjgoins: do you get to the remote shell at all?
[09:39] <mjgoins> Nubbie: yeah, everything works fine until I try an x11 program
[09:39] <mjgoins> then the shell just sits there doing nothing
[09:39] <jmdc> is there anything in the server's logs?
[09:41] <thedash> is there a way to make an icon blink ?
[09:42] <lemon45> hello..
[09:43] <mjgoins> nah, nothing interesting in the logs at all
[09:43] <thedash> what was the keyboard command to open a new 'execute command' window ?
[09:44] <Nubbie> theconartist: alt F2
[09:44] <thedash> thanks :P
[09:44] <Nubbie> whoops.
[09:44] <Nubbie> theconartist: my bad, ignore the blinking IRC window :D
[09:44] <thedash> I was trying ctrl-F2 and such
[09:44] <Nubbie> tab killed that guy. i feel bad now he's probably sleeping.
[09:44] <Nubbie> lol.
[09:45] <mjgoins> i give up
[09:45] <thedash> it happens all the time, I doubt he'll hate you too much
[09:46] <Cuzz> in the tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MobileWirelessBroadband, i must install libc6-dev. libc6-dev needs libc6. libc6 needs libc6_2.6.1-1+b1_i386.deb. When i install libc6_2.6.1-1+b1_i386.deb it gives the following: libc6 conflicts with tzdata. tzdata (version 2007b-0ubuntu) is installed. Anybody know how to proceed please?
[09:47] <Nubbie> Cuzz: install everything from repositories?
[09:48] <Cuzz> from the net... I cant i need these to setup the internet connection
[09:48] <ziroday> whats the difference between the ati, radeon and fgrlx drivers for ati cards?
[09:49] <soberrover> hey.... I've got a spare harddrive that I've left as NTFS up till now. I've backed up my files, and formatted to ext3. now how do I mount it?
[09:50] <yourdaddysdaddy> !mount
[09:50] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[09:50] <mirf> any clever folk in here?  I'm talking -seriously- clever?
[09:50] <astro76> ziroday, ati is open source 2d driver, fglrx is closed/proprietary 3d driver, radeon is new open source 3d driver
[09:50] <mirf> please give this a look - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3254730#post3254730
[09:50] <ziroday> astro76: then why am i getting 3d on my ati driver?
[09:50] <yourdaddysdaddy> !fstab | soberrover
[09:50] <ubotu> soberrover: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[09:52] <Cuzz> in the tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MobileWirelessBroadband, i must install libc6-dev. libc6-dev needs libc6. libc6 needs libc6_2.6.1-1+b1_i386.deb.

I just want to setup the internet connection, after that everything should run smooth.
[09:52] <astro76> mirf, it's sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0
[09:52] <astro76> mirf, the -t option must go before <device> and <mountpoint>
[09:53] <mirf> astro76, OK let me try...
[09:53] <astro76> mirf, also if you do: ls -l /dev/sd* , does sdb1 show up?
[09:54] <mirf> astro76, just /dev/sdb shows up
[09:54] <mirf> astro76,  mount command you gave me didn't do anything good either... it's gotta be a problem with the partitioning somehow
[09:54] <astro76> mirf, that's the problem, obviously... is this external or internal?
[09:55] <mirf> astro76,  Internal
[09:55] <mirf> astro76,  I've had ubuntu installed in the past and it accessed the drive without fault - I wonder what changed heh
[09:57] <astro76> mirf, can you paste the output of: ls -l /dev/sdb
[09:58] <mirf> astro76, http://pastebin.com/m27734d5
[09:58] <fuzzy> is it possible to designate which internet connection a program will use?
[09:59] <vanksi_> hddtemp tells me that most of my hard drives are sleeping, how can i wake them up?
[09:59] <astro76> mirf, try: sudo mknod sdb1 b 8 17
[09:59] <Nubbie> fuzzy: you're connected to more than one?
[09:59] <astro76> mirf, then try to mount again
[10:00] <fuzzy> i'd like to be
[10:00] <mirf> astro76, same error
[10:00] <mirf> astro76, doesn't show up in list either
[10:00] <astro76> mirf, ok that command should have made /dev/sdb1
[10:00] <Nubbie> fuzzy: i think most programs use the assumption it's already connected to the internet, i doubt there would be a way to specify which programs use what.
[10:00] <mirf> astro76,  it's crazy hahah
[10:01] <soberrover> thanks, people
[10:02] <astro76> fuzzy, I'd imagine you'd have to use iptables (firestarter) and make rules based on outgoing ports
[10:02] <mirf> astro76,  only /dev/sdb* in /dev dir is /dev/sdb still
[10:02] <davetarmac> I have a sh script that I need to run at startup. I have it added to sessions, but it still doesn't load up. It is currently set up to run gksudo /path/to/script.sh but doesn't run. How can I get around this?
[10:02] <fuzzy> thx astro
[10:02] <astro76> mirf,  I wonder if it should have been: sudo mknod /dev/sdb1 b 8 17
[10:02] <danya> hello .. I need some help .. I don't know whats wrong with my system .yesterday I cou;dnt log into gnome till now ..whenever I choose gnome desktop nothing appears on the desktop .. anyone ? I'm on feisty 64-bit
[10:03] <astro76> mirf, see if a /sdb1 was created, if so, sorry ;) you can delete it (sudo rm /sdb1)
[10:04] <mirf> astro76,  created /dev/sdb1 but... /dev/sdb1 is not a valid block device
[10:04] <cs_> i
[10:05] <astro76> mirf, I'm afraid I don't know how to troubleshoot this one, maybe delete the partition and make it again if you don't have data on it
[10:05] <ion> anyone know of a howto to compile a kernel with cfs scheduler patch?
[10:05] <icone> hi there again
[10:05] <mirf> astro76,  it's OK thanks for your help I do appreciate it :)
[10:05] <icone> have php-plugin in eclipse, but can't edit php files :s
[10:06] <icone> it returns an error
[10:06] <mirf> astro76,  I'm sure it'a a partition table error now look at this... http://pastebin.com/m63e074cc
[10:07] <michaelsmick> Hi, I'm trying to installl feisty on a 4 year old laptop, 256 mb ram right now. Can I force it to just install, not go to the live version first.  It's killing the install time.
[10:07] <michaelsmick> I mean it's taking so much time to redraw the window to walk through the installation.
[10:07] <michaelsmick> I've killed it 3 times because it seems locked up.
[10:08] <astro76> mirf, looks like it
[10:08] <zorlin> michael: Is there no alternate cd yet?
[10:08] <zorlin> O.o
[10:08] <astro76> michaelsmick, use the alternate cd
[10:08] <zorlin> y'know, the alternate installation CD.
[10:08] <mirf> astro76,  so now I gotta get my partition editing head on and find a nice large hd to back up the data on :D
[10:08] <michaelsmick> alternate?  I don't know of that, but I'll download it now if it's available.
[10:09] <Nubbie> michaelsmick: yeah use the alternate cd.
[10:09] <danya_> hello .. I need some help .. I don't know whats wrong with my system .yesterday I cou;dnt log into gnome till now ..whenever I choose gnome desktop nothing appears on the desktop .. anyone ? I'm on feisty 64-bit
[10:09] <Javid> How do I run a bin executable? x.x
[10:09] <astro76> michaelsmick, you can click the check box for the alternate desktop CD under the Start Download button here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download

[10:11] <wolferine> right
[10:11] <Nubbie> Cuzz: you're installing everything from repositories right?
[10:12] <Nubbie> Javid: run chmod +x </path/to/file.bin> then run it in a terminal.
[10:12] <Cuzz> i'm downloading the .deb files from another computer, and tryimg to install them using dpkg
[10:13] <Javid> thanks
[10:13] <icone> anyone can help me ?
[10:13] <icone> have php-plugin in eclipse, but can't edit php files :s
[10:13] <icone> it returns an error
[10:14] <ce_xma_punk> hai
[10:14] <Javid> Gotta love people who post bins for download without telling you any of the dependencies.
[10:14] <wolferine> icone, dont use exlipse then
[10:16] <Flannel> Cuzz: Try downloading the newer version of locales and tzdata
[10:16] <Flannel> Cuzz: Are you on feisty (on the installed machine?)
[10:17] <riniver> Ahh...When i try to apt-get remove gaim it tries to remove nautilus-sendto and ubuntu-desktop aswell :|
[10:17] <Flannel> riniver: that's expected
[10:17] <riniver> Wouldn't removal of ubuntu-desktop bea  bad thing?
[10:17] <Flannel> riniver: it's just a metapackage
[10:18] <Nubbie> riniver: just make sure you install it when upgrading.
[10:19] <riniver> I downloaded the pidgin 2.1.1 data,dev and amd64 packages (.dev files) will they reinstall it?
[10:20] <Nubbie> riniver: i doubt it.
[10:20] <vsayikiran> i am using wallpaper tray package and i want that it should load automatically whenever i login , does ny body have ny solution
[10:20] <Flannel> riniver: No.  those packages don't depend on pidgin, they depend on gaim
[10:20] <astro76> !startup | vsayikiran
[10:20] <ubotu> vsayikiran: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[10:20] <Nubbie> vsayikiran: system > preferences > session, then add the program do the startup list.
[10:20] <Nubbie> damn you astro76 lol.
[10:21] <Nubbie> some people still type out their help you know ;)
[10:21] <astro76> :D
[10:21] <vsayikiran> currently everytime i login i have to start it manually
[10:21] <astro76> Nubbie, I've probably typed that manually in here 10 times, I've had enough :p
[10:21] <vsayikiran> ok nubbie can u tell me where this wallpaper tray program is stored
[10:21] <decay> vsayikiran,  start what?
[10:21] <riniver> Seems a little string uninstalling it then reinstalling it straight back
[10:21] <riniver> little strange*
[10:21] <decay> Anyone know how to use Wine? i installed it....
[10:22] <mic_> hello guys
[10:22] <decay> vsayikiran, your wallpaper doesn't get loaded when you login?
[10:22] <Nubbie> vsayikiran: i dunno, you've the one who installed it lol. it's most likely in /usr/bin but i dunno what it's called.
[10:22] <Flannel> decay: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[10:22] <vsayikiran> i mean in which i can find the executable wallpaper tray
[10:22] <vsayikiran> yes decay
[10:22] <decay> Flannel, thanks
[10:22] <mic_> does the (k)ubuntu installer now detects SATA raid stripping harddisks?
[10:22] <astro76> vsayikiran, the command is "wallpaper-tray", you don't need to know where it is
[10:22] <decay> vsayikiran, is it loaded in another hard drive?
[10:22] <decay> vsayikiran, i mean located, not loaded.
[10:22] <glick> hey whats the file that lists all of the modules that will get loaded when the kernel boots?
[10:23] <mic_> glick: modules.conf
[10:23] <glick> where is that file mic_ ?
[10:23] <Flannel> mic_: if it does, it would be the alternate CD and not the desktop CD.  It depends mostly on how youve setup the RAID I believe.
[10:23] <mic_> glick: it's pointed in /etc/
[10:23] <glick> mic_, i dont see it
[10:23] <decay> has anyone tried playing counterstrike under linux?
[10:23] <mic_> Flannel: is this alternate cd available on the official website?
[10:23] <vsayikiran> i just want to know in which folder does the exectable files are stored
[10:24] <Flannel> mic_: it is indeed.
[10:24] <Nubbie> decay: i'm sure some people have.
[10:24] <mic_> glick: may be you have directory called /etc/modprobe.d?
[10:24] <astro76> vsayikiran, to find out type: which wallpaper-tray
[10:24] <glick> yes mic_
[10:24] <decay> I'd like to know if it ran well.
[10:24] <decay> vsayikiran, are you wallpaper images located in a different driver?
[10:24] <glick> mic_, i see a bunch of weird blacklist files there
[10:24] <astro76> decay, try the winehq.org site, there's a compatibility database
[10:25] <mic_> Flannel: to the setup in general... i've configured the Raid 1 with the bios
[10:25] <Nubbie> decay: depends on your system.
[10:25] <decay> astro76, okay
[10:25] <vsayikiran> so astro76 if i want wallpaper-tray to start automatically , i need to add this in session
[10:25] <Bucket> Hello, can someone give me some help with repartitioning please :D?
[10:25] <Nubbie> Bucket: what's the deal?
[10:25] <mic_> glick: just a blicklist file?
[10:25] <Nubbie> vsayikiran: no add it to the start up list.
[10:25] <decay> vsayikiran, is your wallpaper on another hard drive or not?
[10:25] <glick> mic_, no a bunch of files
[10:25] <riniver> I uninstalled gaim and the gaim data files (losing ubuntu-desktop and nautilus sendto in the process) and tried to install pidgin but it says dependency not satisfiable libc6. i tried ot insatll libc6 but it's already at newest version
[10:25] <astro76> vsayikiran, indeed, but you only need the command name "wallpaper-tray" is my point, it is already in your $PATH
[10:25] <Bucket> Uh, I want to increase the size of my linux partition, and decrease the windows partition
[10:25] <jeska> Do you know how I can get linuxthread support in Fiesty with glibc 2.5. :<
[10:25] <mic_> hmm strange
[10:25] <Bucket> without adding any more though
[10:26] <glick> but alot of nlackist ones
[10:26] <decay> Bucket, i suggest using partition magic 8 in windows
[10:26] <Flannel> riniver: Then your GAIM debs aren't for feisty.
[10:26] <TuTUX> if ubuntu can automatic detect all the apps i have installed and auto install them when i doing a system upgrade, that would be awesome
[10:26] <Flannel> riniver: er, pidgin.
[10:26] <Bucket> I would like to keep it at the number of partitions IU have, only cahhnge the ize and not lose data
[10:26] <Bucket> I'm in the liveCD D;
[10:26] <Flannel> TuTUX: It doesn't need to.  That's what the upgrade is for.
[10:26] <Flannel> TuTUX: the upgrade doesn't remove/reinstall stuff, it just upgrades.  They remain installed (with newer versions)
[10:26] <Nubbie> bucket: this is what you need to do, boot into windows, and defragment the partition. then you can resize it easier with linux.
[10:26] <Bucket> Yeh
[10:26] <Parisi> Hmm
[10:26] <Bucket> Done that
[10:27] <Bucket> So I'm in gnome partition thing now
[10:27] <TuTUX> Flannel, but when i upgrade from 6.10 to feisty, lots of my apps got lost
[10:27] <Bucket> I just want to increase one, decrease the other, without losing data or creating any more partitions
[10:27] <Nubbie> Bucket: smarty :) k use the partitioning tool to shrink the drive, then move it so that there is unallocated space between it and your linux partition. then expand the linux partition.
[10:27] <Flannel> TuTUX: Which ones might those have been?
[10:27] <glick> do aliases get wiped out when you restart?
[10:27] <yourdaddysdaddy> decay: why not look at wine's app db?
[10:28] <Flannel> glick: how did you add them?
[10:28] <Bucket> Yeh, I can do that, but the linux partition won't expand?
[10:28] <astro76> glick, not if you put them in your ~/.bashrc
[10:28] <glick> Flannel, just alias='blabla'
[10:28] <TuTUX> Flannel, that was a while ago, and i reinstall the system few times after that upgrade, but i just got this idea
[10:28] <Flannel> glick: You've gotta put them in your rc file
[10:28] <Nubbie> Bucket: it should be able to from the livecd.
[10:28] <glick> ah ok
[10:28] <glick> thanks
[10:28] <Bucket> Yeh
[10:29] <Flannel> TuTUX: They shouldn't get lost.  If you knew of a few examples, we could investigate.
[10:29] <Bucket> But I can't use the space preceding the linux partition D;
[10:29] <Cuzz> Flannel: I installed locales and tzdata. When i install libc6_2.6.1-1+b1_i386.deb it gives the following: libc6 conflicts with tzdata (<<2007e-2). tzdata (version 2007e-0ubuntu) is installed.
[10:29] <Flannel> Bucket: That's because ext3 partitions can only have their tail shifted, not the head.
[10:29] <Bucket> Okay, so what do I do then?
[10:29] <Nubbie> bucket: do you have enough free space to make an exact copy of it?
[10:30] <TuTUX> Flannel, i can understand if i upgrade my system, those apps installed from 3rd party repos got lost or not function well
[10:30] <yagami> Can someone help me with how to mount a file with long/mixed filenames? i am using mount /path/file.iso /path/destination -o loop,iocharset=utf8
[10:30] <Bucket> Yeh, but I don't want to lose data from either :D?
[10:30] <yagami> when i run this, i am getting the fstab error.
[10:30] <yagami> i mena a mount error. whats wrong?
[10:31] <Flannel> Cuzz: Sounds like youre mixing gutsy with feisty.
[10:31] <Flannel> TuTUX: Right, because the third party repos don't have the proper newer packages.
[10:31] <astro76> yagami, you have the -o in the wrong place
[10:31] <Nubbie> Bucket: if there's enough space in the unallocated space, copy the linux partition into that, then delete the original when you're sure it copied correctly. then expand the new one into the deleted space.
[10:31] <Bucket> So, I create a load of unallocated space right? Then, I make a copy of linux partition which will not lose any data :D? and lastly, I delete the other, and increase the size of the other?
[10:31] <astro76> !iso | yagami
[10:31] <ubotu> yagami: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[10:31] <Bucket> Okay.
[10:31] <Bucket> Thanks
[10:31] <unimatrix9> ward_
[10:31] <glick> hey i have a question, its been bothering me, it sees that my login screen is off to the side of my monitor, like the login resolution is off or something
[10:31] <glick> i hvae a widescreen monitor
[10:31] <Cuzz> how so, im on feisty?
[10:31] <unimatrix9> ward_ private...
[10:31] <glick> how can i fix this?
[10:31] <unimatrix9> !
[10:32] <decay> glick, you installed your video driver?
[10:32] <glick> yeah decay nvidia
[10:32] <psngl> hi all
[10:33] <decay> glick, so after you login, the reso is fine?
[10:33] <glick> yeah decay
[10:33] <glick> its weird
[10:33] <vanksi_> how can i wake up sleeping hard drives?
[10:33] <TuTUX> Flannel, but just like what you said, if the upgrade should keep all installed apps from official repos working, i will keep an eye on them when i upgrade to the final gutsy (when its out)
[10:33] <decay> glick, sorry man =/ don't know what to do. I'd check your xorg.conf and get rid of all the lower resolutions
[10:33] <Flannel> Cuzz: Feisty has 2007b, not 2007e. and 2.5 libc6, not 2.6.1 (which is gutsy)
[10:34] <glick> decay, the resolution is fine, its just the screen is shifted to the right
[10:34] <Nubbie> vanksi_: read data from them?
[10:34] <astro76> glick, if you make the resolution that you use in the desktop the first one listed, it should use it on the login screen
[10:34] <glick> astro76, in xorg.conf?
[10:34] <astro76> glick, yes
[10:34] <Flannel> Cuzz: What it sounds like is you've downloaded Gutsy packages, and are trying to install them on your Feisty machine
[10:34] <Bucket> Nubbie: do I try and do these all at once? Or do each action one at a time?
[10:34] <yagami> astro76, I did change the position, to no effect. besides, i dont think thats the placement of -o option in mount matters...(i have yet to read the mans)
[10:35] <Nubbie> Bucket: copy the partition, and make sure it went smoothly before deleting the original.
[10:35] <Nubbie> bucket: ie. make sure it boots.
[10:35] <Bucket> k
[10:35] <astro76> yagami, ah sorry, it's mounting but you don't see long filenames?
[10:36] <TuTUX> Flannel, how about programs built from src? will system upgrading break them?
[10:36] <enry> i have a tecnical question: i just buy an IBM Thinkpad T40 without wifi, ad i have to install it now by myself....it's better install the original mini pci card, or buy an esxternal....if i buy an external wifi ard it's better a usb or a pcmcia ? thanks!
[10:36] <nathan> how do I change the background image or it might be a gradient, behind 'File Edit View Terminal Tabs Help' ?
[10:36] <yagami> yes, no, i get an error if i use iocharset option. without it, i can sure mount it- but with truncated filenames like in dos filenames
[10:36] <Flannel> TuTUX: Where did you put them once you compiled?
[10:37] <glick> whats the key combo to restart X
[10:37] <TuTUX> Flannel, an example is compiz.  and i put them in /usr
[10:37] <Nubbie> enry: check the compatibility pages to see if the internal mini pci is supported.
[10:37] <astro76> TuTUX, if you install them to /usr/local/ (this is common) they will be independent
[10:37] <Nubbie> enry: if so, go nuts.
[10:37] <Flannel> nathan: I answered you hours ago.  If you're going to ask questions, please read the responses people give you.
[10:37] <decay> christ my connection keeps dropping every 2-3 mins. im about to kick pc
[10:37] <Flannel> glick: ctrl-alt-backspace
[10:37] <Nubbie> glick: ctrl alt backspace
[10:37] <Nubbie> damn you flannel lol.
[10:37] <glick> kooool thanks
[10:38] <TuTUX> but when i was in 6.10, some libs in /usr/local/ are not working
[10:38] <nathan> sorry what was the answer? all I thought I got was a link to something I don't undestan
[10:38] <nathan> understand*
[10:38] <TuTUX> astro76, like some gstreamer libs
[10:38] <nathan> sorry about that
[10:38] <psngl> can anyone help.... ive just installed ubuntu recently and everything is fine except my resolution is weird....photo are always stretched for some reason....can anyone help???
[10:38] <enry> Nubbie, yes it is, mine was only a tecnical question, which of them is th better solution? (better brawitch, low battery consumption....)
[10:39] <astro76> nathan, http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArt/Tutorials
[10:39] <Nubbie> !resolution > psngl
[10:39] <nathan> that's the link I don't get, I been trying to read it for a lil while
[10:39] <TuTUX> astro76, have to manually link/copy them to /usr, so right now i just put everything under /usr
[10:39] <Cuzz> Flannel: Oh, i see. Then im stumped, i have no clue how to proceed installing all the packages that are specific to feisty to make this connection work.
[10:39] <astro76> enry, I'd prefer internal mini-pci then pcmcia, and last resort usb
[10:40] <Flannel> Cuzz: Download the packages you're installing for feisty, not gutsy.
[10:40] <TuTUX> astro76, so thats a bad habit?
[10:40] <Nubbie> enry: i dunno, i doubt the impact is that great. either method you can turn the device off.
[10:40] <astro76> TuTUX, it doesn't make for a system that can be fully managed with apt, it can help to use checkinstall though
[10:40] <psngl> ty so much
[10:40] <Nubbie> yeah you want to leave that card slot open, and nobody likes dongles.
[10:40] <astro76> !checkinstall | TuTUX
[10:40] <ubotu> TuTUX: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[10:40] <Flannel> TuTUX: yeah.  Stuff in /usr is under package management.  Your stuff could get overwritten (or worse yet, you'll get broken packages), you should put them in /usr/local (that stuff isn't under package management)
[10:41] <Bucket> uh
[10:41] <glick> the hell that killed my beryl
[10:41] <glick> :(
[10:41] <glick> how do i get my 3d cube back?
[10:41] <Nubbie> for programs i install from source, i keep the folder from which i installed it so it can be easily removed.
[10:42] <Bucket> It said there was an error on the disc I was trying to resize, and it didn't do anything!!!
[10:42] <Nubbie> glick: ask in #ubuntu-effects
[10:42] <Nubbie> glick: (right click the red diamond, reload window manager)
[10:42] <enry> thanks astro76 and Nubbie, my hope is that instead of the lack pf the wifi mini pci card the antennas are installer otherwise it will be a pretty hard work to do by myself
[10:42] <TuTUX> Flannel, ok, ic
[10:42] <Nubbie> Bucket: that sucks.
[10:42] <Bucket> So what do I do?
[10:43] <arooni> how do i format a dvdrw disk?
[10:43] <glick> yeah Nubbie i did that
[10:43] <arooni> how do i format a dvdrw disk?  gnomebaker isnt cutting it ;(
[10:43] <Bucket> Glick
[10:43] <Bucket> Type emerald --replace
[10:43] <astro76> arooni, try k3b maybe, or brasero
[10:43] <Bucket> in term
[10:43] <EvaLuaTe> where can i find the sudo-ers list ?
[10:43] <TuTUX> astro76, but the debs made by checkinstall still manageable/working after a distro upgrade?
[10:43] <Nubbie> stay away from k3b. it sucks in gnome.
[10:43] <glick> Bucket, doesnt do anything
[10:44] <Bucket> Nubbie~~~ how do I make it partition?
[10:44] <Bucket> D;
[10:44] <Ziroday> Nubbie: no it dosnt
[10:44] <nathan> I can't understand all that programming I just want to change the color of my menu back to normal
[10:44] <astro76> EvaLuaTe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers
[10:44] <glick> what the hell
[10:44] <Flannel> TuTUX: you'll need to recompile them for the new versions of everything
[10:44] <Nubbie> glick: then you don't have your video drivers, x, or beryl set up correctly, either one.
[10:44] <EvaLuaTe> thank you astro76
[10:44] <glick> okaaay there we goooo
[10:44] <glick> whew!
[10:44] <Flannel> TuTUX: Just like any other locally installed deb, you can remove it as a deb, but it won't update itself
[10:44] <glick> but that didnt fix my login screen problem
[10:45] <Nubbie> nathan: your panel is a different colour?
[10:45] <Bucket> Nathan
[10:45] <Bucket> Is it a gnome theme that you used?
[10:45] <riniver> has anyone else had any problems with Debuntu repository not being found?
[10:45] <riniver> I get a 404 error after i added the lines it told me to
[10:45] <astro76> riniver, what is Debuntu?
[10:45] <TuTUX> Flannel, ok, so instead of that, puting everything under /usr/local/ maybe a better idea to keep things runing?
[10:45] <nathan> where it says File Edit View Terminal Tabs
[10:46] <riniver> It's a .deb repository. http://www.debuntu.org/
[10:46] <TuTUX> Flannel, everything compiled from src
[10:46] <Flannel> TuTUX: Well, in /usr/local you'll still run into problems when you upgrade to newer versions of everyhting its compiled against
[10:46] <Nubbie> TuTUX: yeah, when configuring, type ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
[10:46] <whyn0t> hello
[10:47] <Nubbie> TuTUX: and hang onto the folder you installed with, that way it's easy to remove the program using sudo make uninstall
[10:47] <glick> i needs my cube
[10:47] <glick> i cant do 2d computing anymore
[10:47] <Bucket> Nathan go to themes, and just switch it back to human or something
[10:48] <nathan> I have it totally perfect except that though
[10:48] <TuTUX> Flannel, ok, since i still love apt that much, id just have to keep my own src packages more organized
[10:49] <MK3> hi guys can anyone explain to me how i can get passed that ROOT user, as when i try to save my interface settings it is locked
[10:49] <Nubbie> TuTUX: creating deb files would be the best solution if it's not too much of a hassle.
[10:49] <TuTUX> ty very much for the nolage, Flannel, astro76 and Nubbie
[10:49] <MK3> hi guys can anyone explain to me how i can get passed that ROOT user, as when i try to save my interface settings it is locked
[10:49] <Flannel> !sudo | MK3
[10:49] <ubotu> MK3: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:49] <Nubbie> MK3: you only need to ask once, we're capable of reading -.-
[10:50] <MK3> cheers ubotu will take a look
[10:50] <MK3> sorry nubbie but did it by accident
[10:50] <Ziroday> MK3: ubotu is a bot
[10:50] <Nubbie> MK3: ubotu is a robot lol although it probably appreciates your thanks :)
[10:50] <MK3> lol
[10:50] <Nubbie> MK3: i didn't mean to sound snappy, if i did i apologize :)
[10:51] <TuTUX> !botsnack
[10:51] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[10:51] <Nubbie> !kill
[10:51] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:51] <MK3> that cool
[10:51] <Nubbie> it helps with the monotonous help lol.
[10:51] <nathan> anyone know how to change the color for the bar behind file edit view etc, and only that color?
[10:51] <Flannel> !repeat | nathan
[10:51] <ubotu> nathan: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:51] <Nubbie> nathan: change your theme.
[10:52] <EvaLuaTe> when i create a new account and his home directory is created, there are some files copied in the home folder by default, where can i find/edit these default files ?
[10:52] <Nubbie> nathan: system > preferences > theme
[10:52] <Nubbie> EvaLuaTe: they're mostly hidden files, hit ctrl H in nautilus to see them.
[10:52] <astro76> EvaLuaTe, /etc/skel/
[10:53] <whyn0t> I need help with mdadm. I have a clean system on sda, an empty sdb and I'd like to construct my arrays from the data on sda but don't know which mode (Assemble, Build, Create) to use
[10:53] <Nubbie> astro76: he was asking about the files created IN the home directory :)
[10:53] <EvaLuaTe> no, i was asking about where the default files are located :)
[10:53] <astro76> Nubbie, yep, that's where they are copied from when you add a user
[10:53] <Nubbie> OHHHhh
[10:54] <EvaLuaTe> thanks guys :)
[10:54] <Nubbie> okay i thought he wanted to edit the files in the home directory, he wants to edit the files that are copied before they get to the /home/user folder.
[10:54] <Nubbie> sorry astro76 :)
[10:54] <whyn0t> I precise that I couldn't use the raid assistant of the CD and that's why I'm doing it by hand.
[10:54] <mimi001> hy all
[10:54] <mimi001> i have some question 4 u
[10:54] <mimi001> who can help me?
[10:55] <astro76> !ask
[10:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:55] <Nubbie> mimi0001: we need a question first.
[10:55] <mimi001> k
[10:55] <Ziroday> !ask | mimi001
[10:55] <ubotu> mimi001: please see above
[10:55] <Nubbie> lol. that bot keeps getting smarter.
[10:55] <astro76> hah
[10:55] <astro76> thanks ubotu
[10:55] <whyn0t> :)
[10:55] <mimi001> how could i instal KDE onubuntu?
[10:55] <Ziroday> damn bet me to it

[10:55] <Nubbie> mimi001: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:55] <Ziroday> mimi001: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:55] <astro76> aww no response :(

[10:56] <mimi001> what prb?
[10:56] <MK3> hi ubotu just read up with the link, only am a n00b with understanding all this language, so would i need to save the interface using commands as such ?
[10:56] <jeska> need to get linuxthread support in Fiesty with glibc 2.5. :<
[10:56] <jeska> >.>
[10:56] <Ahadiel> MK3, u**bot**u is a bot
[10:56] <Ninurta> Does Ubuntu support burnning cd's?
[10:56] <MK3> bot?
[10:56] <Nubbie> MK3: ubotu can't understand you. ask a human :)
[10:57] <astro76> Ninurta, indeed
[10:57] <Ahadiel> MK3, not a person >_>
[10:57] <MK3> i see
[10:57] <Nubbie> lol.
[10:57] <Ninurta> Ok.
[10:57] <Nubbie> !about
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about about - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <Ziroday> Ninurta: yes look at gnome baker or k3b
[10:57] <astro76> !ubotu
[10:57] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:57] <Nubbie> D:
[10:57] <Ninurta> I am using Wubi to install it. Anyone used it without flaws?
[10:57] <Nubbie> somebody should add the !about :l
[10:57] <Nubbie> Ninurta: wubi is what now?
[10:57] <MK3> hi humans just read up with the link, only am a n00b with understanding all this language, so would i need to save the interface using commands as such ?
[10:58] <astro76> :D
[10:58] <Ninurta> Installs Ubuntu with option to load windows or ubuntu on start
[10:58] <Ziroday> Nubbie: wubi is ubuntu as a program on the windoze desktop
[10:58] <astro76> MK3, I don't think anyone knows what you mean  by "save the interface"?
[10:58] <Ninurta> without having to create a free partition or burn-cd
[10:59] <Ninurta> not exactly on windows but yes that is how it is put.
[10:59] <Ziroday> Nubbie: it downloads as a .exe file
[10:59] <Nubbie> Ninurta: ubuntu already has that, it's called grub. i'd stay far away from this wubi business, it sounds SHADY.
[10:59] <MK3> its the interface settings for my Ethernet card
[10:59] <Nubbie> Ziroday: installs ubuntu from inside windows?
[10:59] <Ninurta> I have tried installing ubuntu myself many times
[10:59] <Ninurta> it hasn't gone well
[10:59] <Ninurta> Yes Nubbie.
[10:59] <Ninurta> From Windows.
[10:59] <Nubbie> ohhhh
[10:59] <Ziroday> Nubbie: yeah
[10:59] <Nubbie> nifty. that should make the switch easier.
[10:59] <MK3> stored in the /etc/networks folder
[11:00] <faileas> Nubbie: actually, it installs ubuntu in disk images on the windows drives, and chainloads grub from the NTloader. this means you don't have to repartition to install ubuntu, and can install and uninstall ubuntu from windows
[11:00] <Nubbie> Ninurta: i don't know of anybody ever using it successfully, i've never heard of it before.
[11:00] <astro76> MK3, yeah if you are editing a file, use sudo <editor> or gksudo <gui editor> for example, it will run the text editor as root
[11:00] <Ninurta> faileas: yse you get option of choosing what HD/Partition to load it on also.
[11:00] <Nubbie> faileas: so ubuntu runs off an ntfs partition?
[11:00] <Ninurta> You choose login/password from Wubi installer.
[11:00] <MK3> thanks man i will have a go!
[11:00] <Ninurta> Nubbie: yes.
[11:00] <Ninurta> I belive
[11:00] <faileas> Nubbie: it runs off disk images on a NTFS or FAT partition
[11:00] <Ninurta> http://wubi-installer.org/
[11:00] <DARKGuy> could somebody here help me in connecting two Ubuntu computers in an ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network? I run the commands this way and the interfaces can detect each other and seem to connect, but pinging won't work -> http://pastebin.ca/671026 . The devices work both in Windows and Linux, and I tried to set it up using wicd in my tries (been trying this for 2+ days of googling and asking around with no luck) and it worked once, but then I restarted my laptop
[11:00] <DARKGuy>  and it didn't work anymore so I'm trying the manual way. I REALLY need the internet with the two Ubuntu machines so could anybody in God's name help me please? I'm tired and frustrated of googling and searching around...
[11:01] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: are they both wireless?
[11:01] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: yes!
[11:02] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: i believe Network Manager allows you to set up your computer as an access point. then you'd have to have DHCP software installed i believe so computers connecting to it can get an IP address. after that, you can run SSH commands back and forth.
[11:02] <Ninurta> Once I installed Ubuntu and had major difficulty running Whine.
[11:03] <Nubbie> Ninurta: but ubuntu worked....?
[11:03] <deus> does ubuntu got something similar to a plug and play function?
[11:03] <Ninurta> It always gave me errors no matter what procedure I choose to install/configure
[11:03] <Ninurta> Ubuntu worked yes.
[11:03] <Nubbie> Ninurta: what did you need wine for?
[11:03] <Theory`> Ninurta, I have major difficulty running wine in ubuntu as well.
[11:03] <Ninurta> I couldn't use Ubuntu desktop to copy folders onto cd.
[11:03] <Ninurta> Drag and drop.
[11:03] <Ninurta> Or other wise.
[11:03] <Ninurta> manual commands.
[11:03] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: just set IP addresses manually, if you're just talking from one computer to the other
[11:03] <Nubbie> Ninurta: chances are there's a good alternative that runs native to linux.
[11:03] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: don't complicate things with DHCP
[11:03] <yourdaddysdaddy> !udev
[11:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:03] <Ninurta> Nubbie: You mean get something other then Ubuntu?
[11:04] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: All I need is to get them to ping each other, then I can share my internet and it's the only thing I want to archieve. I've tried network manager a thousand ways and it has never worked for me - nor the small popup menu showing the detected networks appear, so I have to do it manually with /etc/network/interfaces , which works instead of network manager. I've tried the DHCP too and I've had no luck... I had that idea too :(
[11:04] <BlindSide> !ops
[11:04] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti, mneptok or Pici
[11:04] <faileas> Nubbie: its called installing linux directly ;)
[11:04] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: do you not have a wireless router?
[11:04] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: saw the pastebin? I did -> http://pastebin.ca/671026 but it doesn't seem to work, the two PCs can't ping each other
[11:04] <ompaul> BlindSide, ?
[11:04] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: nope, nor money to get one.
[11:04] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: forget about using wep etc
[11:04] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: just get it working first
[11:05] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: alright
[11:05] <BlindSide> its nothing I was just curious
[11:05] <BlindSide> lo
[11:05] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: understandable. you need to set up one computer as an access point for the other.
[11:05] <rob> heh
[11:05] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: anything I need to change in the scripts?
[11:05] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: ah, you're trying to route from one as well?
[11:05] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: yeah, this computer which ahs internet :P
[11:05] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: yeah, using my PC as gateway to share my internet for my laptop
[11:05] <DARKGuy> I know how to do that already using firestarter and all
[11:05] <DARKGuy> just need the link between the two =(
[11:05] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: looks about right
[11:06] <deus> Does ubuntu got a detect hardware function that can install relevant drivers?
[11:06] <E-mu> Is there a simple method to install Ubuntu on USB? I am sick and tired of all the methods I have seen out there some work some don't. Only successfull USB install I have encountered so far is Damn Small Limux
[11:06] <Ninurta> Any other companies send out CD's anymore for free?
[11:06] <BlindSide> hey when I click a php link in swiftweasel sometimes it wants to download em
[11:06] <gordonjcp> DARKGuy: not sure about the routing but you should *at least* be able to ping between .2 and .10
[11:06] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: so set that computer up as an access point, install DHCP server to assign local IP addresses, then you'll need to fiddle with the routing to get stuff forwarded to the second computer.
[11:06] <BlindSide> like half the time
[11:06] <E-mu> Not as a Hard drive but as in Live Cd
[11:06] <E-mu> Live USB
[11:06] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: which doesn't work =/

[11:07] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: heh, good for you :P
[11:07] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: but essentially thats what you need to do.
[11:07] <DARKGuy> gordonjcp: oki, is there a way I can make it not to use any key? just remove the ra0 key lines and it'll be set open?

[11:08] <balthamaisteri> theres only empty space there

[11:08] <CorpseFeeder> I can never seem to make this upgrade thing work. This is the second time I've tried to upgrade to feisty. I just get no menu entry for 2.6.20 added to my grub menu... Can I manually enter it? How do I work out the correct info to put into the grub menu.list?
[11:08] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: is there any chance you can run an ethernet cord from one to the other? or does it have to be wireless?
[11:08] <astro76> kimmey2k3, usb (even usb2) is just slow, I have a drive with usb and firewire and the firewire is many times faster
[11:08] <Bucket> Sorry~
[11:08] <kimmey2k3> USB2.0 is MUCH faster in Windows than this
[11:08] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: I would use a crossover cable but sadly I don't have any around :/
[11:08] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: If you successfully upgrade, you'll get the menu entry
[11:09] <E-mu> I have knoppix 5.1.1 and DSL both running on USB but knoppix 5.1.1 does not save changes but dsl does
[11:09] <Bucket> So anyway, how do I make the partition editor actually partition the things instead of saying "ERROR"
[11:09] <astro76> DARKGuy, you can make one if you have a regular cable
[11:09] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: that would eliminate one step, you wouldn't need an access point set up then. but make sure you get a CROSSOVER ethernet cable, that is absolutely essential.
[11:09] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: and it's useless since.... eh, it's a laptop, I should be able to use its wireless properties, it's like having a car and not using the roof to place your bike
[11:09] <rexyy> Anyone knows how i can change port when activationg remote desktop,?, i want port 4899 instead of the default port?
[11:09] <E-mu> withotu any extra effort in scripting I am sure I could fix knoppix 5.1.1 to save changes
[11:09] <pclaven> so anyway, lets say I want to make my own live cd of ubuntu that has certain pages, a special theme and stuff
[11:09] <rob> Bucket, you need to be more specific then that, what were you trying to do and what app were you using
[11:09] <slater> How would I go about checking battery status from tty? acpi returns 'No acpi support in kernel yada yada or bad path /proc/acpi' yet programs like kismet can read the battery status fine..
[11:09] <pclaven> how would i do it
[11:09] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: yeah, but if it worked before why it doesn't now? it's what I'm trying to solve with what I have
[11:10] <pclaven> sorry not pages, apps
[11:10] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: you have had it working before?
[11:10] <felix> Hello there! I've got a little problem: while I installed Ubuntu (7.04) I mounted my two SATA harddiscs to the folders /media/SDA1 and /media/SDB1. Links on the Desktop and at the "places" bar were created. Now I wanted to rename those discs to "data" and "music", so I created the folders in /media/ and wrote everything into the FSTAB. It worked - but the links on the desktop and at the places bar are still labeled "sda1" and "sdb1" -
[11:10] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: Yeah I said it before, with wicd but then I had to restart the laptop because the program bugged out on both PCs and I lost the link
[11:10] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: It also works Ubuntu (pc) -> Windows (laptop)
[11:11] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: It alsways says it was successful, but the menu entry is never here. I think the problem stems from the fact that I have Ubuntu Studio already installed on a separate drive inside this computer, so being as there is already an entry in the menu for 2.6.20-generic in the menu list, it refuses to add another.. And if I choose the 2.6.20-generic entry from the menu at boot up then I just load into Ubuntu Studio on t
[11:11] <Bucket> Distro; Ubuntu Feisty 7.04, Dual boot with XP. Using Gpart I was trying to decrease the size of the Windows partition and eventually increase the size of the Linux partition. I was decreasing the Windows partition first and it said it won't resize due to some error.
[11:11] <nathan> where's the directory for themes to edit them?
[11:11] <deus> Does ubuntu got a detect hardware function that can install relevant drivers?
[11:11] <Nubbie> nathan: you're refusing to listen to our advice.
[11:11] <Bucket> Nathan, System < Preferences < Themes
[11:12] <nathan> Bucket: that doesn't have what I want
[11:12] <E-mu> Is there a commmand to see what the copy progress is from Hard drive to USB? ps x?
[11:12] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: I don't think the upgrade process is equipped to handle my OS configuration and so refuses to add a menu entry...
[11:12] <Nubbie> nathan: sudo apt-get install art-manager
[11:12] <tsmithe> nathan, they are in ~/.themes
[11:12] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: Do you have linux-image-generic at version 2.6.20.XX?
[11:12] <nathan> tsmithe: thanks
[11:12] <tsmithe> or /usr/share/themes
[11:12] <tsmithe> (for systemwide)
[11:12] <rob> Bucket, have you tried the live cd partition manager? I've personally only ran into problems using Gparted on a live running from the same hard drive system.
[11:12] <astro76> Bucket, ubuntu livecd? is the drive mounted (icon on the desktop)?
[11:12] <tsmithe> nathan, no problem :)
[11:12] <Bucket> I'm using Gparted from the liveCD.
[11:12] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: What do you mean?
[11:12] <Bucket> Yeh, it was.
[11:12] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: erm, why do you have them on separate drives?
[11:13] <pclaven> How do i create my own ubuntu live cd??
[11:13] <Bucket> I have partitioned before, I just want to increase the partition.
[11:13] <astro76> Bucket, in Gparted, right click on partition and click Unmount

 on the whole yes, but depends what exactly you are talking about
[11:13] <astro76> Bucket, it shouldn't automount again after you do that
[11:13] <Nubbie> lol is anyone here... look at all the text flying.
[11:13] <Bucket> I think it did.
[11:13] <slater> Disregard.. I found apm ;)
[11:13] <Bucket> k
[11:13] <Bucket> I unmounted from the desktop too
[11:13] <TuTUX> pclaven, for all your required, sounds like you want to make your own distro

[11:14] <voradams> Ok people, USB wireless G device from Belkin, using the rt73 chipset. Should run out of the box acording to websearch. turned off ipv6, used both kubutu and ubutu, have a dlink router. Can not link, yet iwconfig and iwscan can see the router. any ideas?
[11:14] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: because I just happened to have two drives and decided to put a different OS on each one. Edgy on the main drive and Studio on the other. Is there anything wrong with that?
[11:14] <Bucket> eh
[11:14] <astro76> Bucket, if you still have problems, just use the GPartedLiveCD
[11:14] <pclaven> thank you very much Flannel
[11:14] <Bucket> that worked nicely, thank you Astro.
[11:14] <astro76> Bucket, excellent

[11:14] <Bucket> Well, touch wood, it's working for now~
[11:14] <Nubbie> voradams: your dns settings right?

[11:14] <Nubbie> Bucket: let me know :)
[11:15] <yagami> is it possible that if i drag-copy files in nautilus it does not copy directories after it reaches the 5th or 6th recursive directories?
[11:15] <yagami> the contents in them, specifically.
[11:15] <voradams> Nubbie: DNS should be gotten from dhcp
[11:15] <Nubbie> nathan: edit nautilus preferences.
[11:15] <Nubbie> voradams: should be, but did it?
[11:15] <Bucket> I'm sure this room will be the first to know if I encounter any problems...
[11:15] <Bucket> Well, first to know after me of course.
[11:15] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody with experience can help me setting up a dhcp3 server for giving local IP addresses to the computers that connect to my computer? Either that or helping me set up a wireless ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network between two Ubuntu Feisty machines... please :(
[11:15] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: You should have them on the same drive, same partition, etc.  Theyre the same Ubuntu.  Your problem is that, from what it sounds like, you've got a /boot for studio, and a /boot for non, and your studio one is the one that's being used, so even if your non-studio upgrades, you won't see it.
[11:15] <Nubbie> Bucket: and your alter ego :)
[11:15] <nathan> I don't see it in the preferences
[11:16] <voradams> Nubbie: no, both knetworkmanager and the ubuntu network aqpplet do not connect and get that far

[11:16] <faileas> no
[11:16] <Nubbie> Polygon89: no it means you need a gtk version higher than that lol.
[11:16] <faileas> you need a newer version
[11:16] <Flannel> Polygon89: GTK+ [dash]  2.10, dash separates the version number, + is because it's `GTK+`

[11:17] <felix> Hello there! I've got a little problem: while I installed Ubuntu (7.04) I mounted my two SATA harddiscs to the folders /media/SDA1 and /media/SDB1. Links on the Desktop and at the "places" bar were created. Now I wanted to rename those discs to "data" and "music", so I created the folders in /media/ and wrote everything into the FSTAB.

[11:17] <Nubbie> felix: did you remount them?
[11:17] <guitarhero> hi
[11:18] <astro76> felix, what filesystems?
[11:18] <felix> Nubbie: I umounted everything and after that I remounted them with the FSTAB I wrote -> sudo mount -a
[11:18] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody with experience can help me setting up a dhcp3 server for giving local IP addresses to the computers that connect to my computer? Either that or helping me set up a wireless ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network between two Ubuntu Feisty machines... please :(
[11:18] <felix> astro76: The SATA discs are both EXT3.
[11:19] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: if you do go wireless, you still need a DHCP server lol.
[11:19] <glick> hey is there anyway to get alternative keys on the keyboard?
[11:19] <glick> like the a with two dots on it and stuff?
[11:19] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: Not really, if it was working before without dhcp, why would I need it now?
[11:20] <arman> can anyone tell me a great software to diagnose my hard drives????
[11:20] <astro76> felix, a quick fix might be to right click on the icons, select properties, go to volume tab, and set the mount point there also (but for example, use data NOT /media/data)
[11:20] <Nubbie> DARKGuy: because you need to assign local IP addresses.
[11:20] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: I did with wicd. I want to do it the manual way now. If wicd could, which by the way it isn't any dhcp server, why can't I in the manual way?
[11:20] <UBUNTU01> http://antigop-k4.narod.ru/ubuntu.html
[11:20] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: but the studio and edgy seem to co-exist in the menu on different drives, so why can't I have my drive with edgy on have feisty too?.. Anyway.. is there any easy way to fix this so I can get feisty onto my main drive AND retain all my installed programs and documents etc? Cos right now the only way I can find to upgrade the main drive is to run the feisty install CD and format/install a new fresh install, losing 
[11:20] <Nubbie> arman: diagnose? fsck
[11:21] <DARKGuy> Nubbie: and if you see the pastebin -> http://pastebin.ca/671034 I -am- assigning local IP addresses, a gateway and a netmask
[11:21] <glick> is there a way i can do that?
[11:21] <predaeus> arman, hdparm gives info and control of hard drives. but it is no diagnosis tool.
[11:21] <glick> assign aditional characters to keys?
[11:22] <bullgard4> I am not very well versed in the Ubuntu directory tree. I have got an irssi-0.8.11.tar.bz2 file from the Internet. Where to store it on my computer according to the rules?
[11:22] <astro76> bullgard4, compiled software should go under /usr/local/
[11:22] <felix> astro76: So you assume, as I do, that this is a bug from Nautilus?
[11:22] <Bonzodog> CorpseFeeder: can't you just sudo apt-get dist-upgrade the edgy install?
[11:22] <astro76> bullgard4, but you know feisty has 0.8.10 in the repos
[11:23] <bullgard4> astro76: But my archive does not contain compiled software.
[11:23] <Tha-Fox> ?
[11:23] <voradams> i can manually force the ESSID onto the right name, but dhclient can not get the dhcp lease
[11:23] <astro76> felix, no not nautilus, it might be a udev rule that's set
[11:23] <Bucket> k, anyone who is concerned, that kinda worked, I did get an error towards the end, but it appears to have partitioned anyway which is neat~this happened when I originally created a partition and everything was fine...
[11:23] <TuTUX> how to open a gnome-terminal and auto have a command input?
[11:24] <astro76> bullgard4, a binary distributed as .tar.bz2 ?
[11:24] <arman> thanx for help
[11:24] <felix> astro76: Which means - what?
[11:24] <CorpseFeeder> Bonzodog: I've already tried that several times - same thing. Tells me it is a success, but I still get no entry for the grub menu at boot up, the only feisty kernel options on grub menu always load the UbuntuStudio kernels on the second drive.
[11:24] <Bonzodog> CorpseFeeder: ah hah
[11:24] <astro76> bullgard4, I think you have the source
[11:25] <Bonzodog> yeah....um...
[11:25] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: Because your sources.list is your Studio sources.list
[11:25] <nighthawk07> my ubuntu won't start the X terminal after booting....
[11:25] <bullgard4> astro76: My  irssi-0.8.11.tar.bz2 file contains source code and associated explanatory and help files but no compiled software.
[11:25] <DARKGuy> could somebody here help me in connecting two Ubuntu computers in a wireless ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network? I run the commands this way and the interfaces can detect each other and seem to connect, but pinging won't work -> http://pastebin.ca/671026 . The devices work both in Windows and Linux, and I tried to set it up using wicd in my tries (been trying this for 2+ days of googling and asking around with no luck) and it worked once, but then I restarted m
[11:25] <DARKGuy> y laptop and it didn't work anymore so I'm trying the manual way. I REALLY need the internet with the two Ubuntu machines so could anybody in God's name help me please? I'm tired and frustrated of googling and searching around...
[11:25] <Bonzodog> Flannel: he shoudl have one sources.list for studio and one for edgy
[11:25] <Bonzodog> they are two different roots
[11:25] <predaeus> bullgard4, just unpack it anywhere in your home. You can create a downloads folder in you home if you want. if it is not a tarbomb it will unpack to a directory and not the files all over the current directory. then move on from there.
[11:25] <Flannel> Bonzodog: But in different places.
[11:26] <TuTUX> for example, i want to make a icon which open a gnome-terminal and runs top automatically, whats the command i should put?
[11:26] <vsayikiran> does anyone know how to use wallpaper tray
[11:26] <astro76> bullgard4, exactly, by compiled I mean you will compile it :)
[11:26] <Flannel> Bonzodog: right.  His stage1 is pointing to the studio version.
[11:26] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: Bonzodog is right, I have separate sources list for each installation.
[11:26] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: that's what I said originally.  You really should just have *one* installation, with both things installed in it.
[11:26] <Bonzodog> so is there an entry for the edgy drive on re-boot in the grub?
[11:27] <astro76> bullgard4, you should tell it (if it doesn't already) to install to /usr/local
[11:27] <d4rkmonkey> Whats the difference between server version and normal version of Ubuntu?
[11:27] <Bonzodog> I bet that entry says it is the new kernel
[11:27] <Flannel> d4rkmonkey: the packages installed by default
[11:27] <d4rkmonkey> Flannel ok, thanks.
[11:27] <Bonzodog> oh bloody hell
[11:27] <Flannel> Bonzodog: I'll bet it's an old kernel, whatever edgy had when he installed Studio.
[11:27] <TuTUX> Flannel, ?
[11:27] <vsayikiran> how to use wallpaper tray
[11:27] <thedash> can Ubuntu list picture files by dimensions ?
[11:27] <Bonzodog> CorpseFeeder: where is the grub menu.lst?
[11:27] <glick> is there anyway i can set it so that for example if i hit a certain key combination i can spell different letters?
[11:27] <glick> of different alphabets?
[11:28] <astro76> !checkinstall | bullgard4 also consider checkinstall
[11:28] <ubotu> bullgard4 also consider checkinstall: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[11:28] <Bonzodog> is it on the studio install or the 'edgy' instal;l?
[11:28] <Bonzodog> I bet it;s the studio install
[11:28] <predaeus> TuTUX, create a starter for "gnome-terminal -x top"
[11:28] <Bonzodog> in which case, it needs manually altering to see the upgraded edgy install correctly
[11:28] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: I know that now, but that doesn't help me now though :(..another stupid thing that has happened with my system - When I boot into edgy (which I'm using now) uname tells me my kernel is 2.6.17, but the stupid system monitor tells me I'm running feisty 7.04, so the upgrade process seems to have told edgy it's feisty...
[11:28] <predaeus> TuTUX, see "man gnome-terminal" for details
[11:28] <TuTUX> thanks
[11:29] <bullgard4> predaeus, astro76 : Thank you very much for commenting.
[11:29] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: it's because you *have* upgraded to Feisty, but you're using the old kernel.
[11:29] <DARKGuy> Hey, could somebody here please help me in connecting two Ubuntu computers in a wireless ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network?

[11:29] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: because your studio sources.list doesn't get updated when you update your non-studio versions.
[11:29] <arooni> folks
[11:29] <arooni> i hate vista
[11:29] <arooni> but i need to run it for some tests & such
[11:29] <Flannel> !repeat | DARKGuy
[11:29] <ubotu> DARKGuy: 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
[11:29] <arooni> can i just use vmware?
[11:29] <Bonzodog> Flannel: it's his grub install
[11:30] <astro76> DARKGuy, you should seriously consider a crossover cable :)
[11:30] <Bonzodog> not the upgardes per se
[11:30] <astro76> DARKGuy, you can modify a regular one
[11:30] <Bonzodog> grub will still only use ONE menu.lst
[11:30] <Flannel> Bonzodog: No, it's the fact that he's got two sources.list, and is using the studio one.
[11:30] <Flannel> erm, menu.lst.  Have I been saying sources.list this whole time?
[11:30] <vsayikiran> does anyome know how to use wallpaper tray
[11:30] <Bonzodog> yes
[11:30] <DARKGuy> astro76: Yeah I have that idea but I have no money, it's 5:33 am and there's no computer place open at this hour, besides I had the link working - why should I look for alternatives when there's just something wrong with Ubuntu itself?
[11:30] <Flannel> Oh, well, that explains why I was confusing the two of you.
[11:30] <Bucket> Wootness, windows survived!!!!
[11:31] <nbkr> Hi. I have a question about customising the live cd. I managed to install some additional applications (tightvncserver and plink), but I'm wondering how I can run them at boot time. Simple creating a script in /etc/init.d and running update-rc.d didn't work.
[11:31] <Bonzodog> his grub install is confused
[11:31] <vsayikiran> plz plz somebodyt tell me how to use wallpaper tray
[11:31] <astro76> DARKGuy, well it will be much faster, and I assumed you had a regular ethernet cable already
[11:31] <DARKGuy> Flannel: it's incredible that 1026 people don't know the answer -_-
[11:31] <Bonzodog> his grub menu.lst is on his studio root
[11:31] <d4rkmonkey> vsayikiran wallpaper tray?
[11:31] <Bonzodog> that grub looks at when booting
[11:31] <vsayikiran> yes
[11:31] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: what you *should* do is just ditch one install, and merge it with the other.
[11:31] <DARKGuy> astro76: yeah I know xD and if I had I wouldn't be asking =(
[11:31] <d4rkmonkey> vsayikiran what wallpaper tray?
[11:31] <vsayikiran> wallpaper tray
[11:31] <Bonzodog> personally, I would use Feisty studio
[11:32] <vsayikiran> it is a package to change wallpaper frequently
[11:32] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: yeah.. it won't let me access the new kernel cos no menu entry. The menu.list which loads is the one on the edgy drive.
[11:32] <shape> g' day guys
[11:32] <Flannel> Bonzodog: He's still booting his edgy kernel on his feisty install, because his studio menu.lst isn't updating his edgy kernel, because its not an automagical one.
[11:32] <Bonzodog> just one OS on the whole disk, and create a seperate /home when you do the clean install
[11:32] <vsayikiran> just likek webshots in windows
[11:32] <shape> i'm on a kubuntu dapper and wish to pass on a feisty fawn
[11:32] <Flannel> No.  No need to reinstall
[11:32] <Flannel> !upgrade | shape
[11:32] <ubotu> shape: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:32] <CorpseFeeder> Bonzodog: the menu.list on the Studio drive is not being used.
[11:32] <shape> how i can do it without losing my data
[11:33] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: no, that is the one being used.
[11:33] <Bonzodog> CorpseFeeder: how do you know that?
[11:33] <vsayikiran> is there anyone who has used wallpaper tray
[11:33] <balbir> recommended vmware software in ubuntu? [how?] 
[11:33] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: Which one have you done more to? (which is your main install?)
[11:33] <astro76> vsayikiran, look in /usr/share/doc/wallpaper-tray/README for a start
[11:33] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: because I can look at it on text editer and the see the entries in the edgy drive's menu are the ones I see at boot up
[11:33] <Bonzodog> like Flannel, I just don't understand why he has two ubuntu installs
[11:34] <Flannel> Bonzodog: because he installed Ubuntu, and then installed Ubuntu studio on a separate partition
[11:34] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: the edgy drive is my main drive. I don't really have anything but a base install on the Studio drive right now.
[11:34] <Bonzodog> I wouls suggest starting again
[11:34] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: no, you don't see the same entries.  On the grub menu, you see studio ones, in the edgy install, you don't see studio entries
[11:34] <twager> Just got compiz running ok but how do I exit it and get back to the normal desktop  ??
[11:35] <Bonzodog> when grub writes the menu.lst, it automagically looks for all entries
[11:35] <Javid> metacity --replace
[11:35] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: alright.  Good.  We're going to get rid of the studio install.  First, we're going to update grub to point to your edgy/feisty install, then well, you'll have everything there.
[11:35] <Bonzodog> and other OS's
[11:35] <vsayikiran> i am not able to recycle wallpaper
[11:35] <Flannel> Bonzodog: no.  He doesn't need to start again.
[11:35] <Javid> twager: metacity --replace
[11:35] <Flannel> !grub | CorpseFeeder
[11:35] <ubotu> CorpseFeeder: 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] <twager> Thanks Javid
[11:35] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: follow those instructions, make sure you update grub to the correct (edgy/feisty) one.
[11:35] <Javid> ^^
[11:36] <d4rkmonkey> This may be a bit offtopic, but what programming language do you suggest for someone who wants to start making games? I know PHP HTML and CSS right now, but those are web languages...
[11:36] <vsayikiran> i am not able to recycle wallpaper
[11:36] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: once you do that, we'll delete the studio drive/partition/whatever (and oyu'll have lots of space to put morestuff!) and then you'll add studio to your current feisty install
[11:36] <balbir> how to install vmware in ubuntu?
[11:36] <vsayikiran> can anyone tell how to use wallpaper tray
[11:36] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: I don't understand what you mean? The entries in my menu.list file on the Studio drive are completely different to what I see at boot up time. Why do you insist the grub menu.list on my Studio drive is the one being used?
[11:36] <astro76> d4rkmonkey, probably c++ (and out of those only php is a language :) )
[11:37] <vsayikiran> wallpaper tray doesn't change wallpaper automatically
[11:37] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: sure, pastebin them both.
[11:37] <CorpseFeeder> ok.
[11:37] <nbkr> balbir: Just download the installer from vmware.com, Install the kernel-sources, make and gcc if not already done and run the VMware Installer.
[11:37] <vsayikiran> is therer someone who as used wallpaper tray
[11:37] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: because that would make sense with what you're describing.
[11:37] <Flannel> !repeat | vsayikiran

[11:38] <DARKGuy> Hey, could somebody here please help me in connecting two Ubuntu computers in a wireless ad-hoc (pc-to-pc) network? I run the commands this way and the interfaces can detect each other and seem to connect, but pinging won't work -> http://pastebin.ca/671034 . The devices work both in Windows and Linux, and I tried to set it up using wicd in my tries (been trying this for 2+ days of googling and asking around with no luck) and it worked once, but then I
[11:38] <DARKGuy>  restarted my laptop and it didn't work anymore so I'm trying the manual way. I REALLY need the internet with the two Ubuntu machines so could anybody in here help me please? I'm tired and frustrated of googling and searching around... I have no money nor a way to get a crossover cable so that's not an option. A DHCP server is an option, but I don't know how to install one and I've followed numerous google and forum guides with no information that coul
[11:38] <DARKGuy> d help in my case. Anyone around able to help me please?
[11:38] <balbir> nbkr: can we have any other vitual machine available in ubunt [parallel|xen]

[11:38] <astro76> vsayikiran, guess not, it's a pretty specific question. try searching ubuntuforums.org or google
[11:38] <vsayikiran> i am not ablw recycle wallpaper
[11:38] <twager> Javid: command not found ?
[11:39] <nbkr> balbir: You can use qemu and virtualbox with ubuntu. Xen should also be possible and I think it is included in 7.10.
[11:39] <Javid> hmm
[11:39] <Javid> install beryl-manager, it has a menu to select your window manager
[11:39] <balbir> nbkr: thanks :)

[11:40] <DARKGuy> Flannel: Yes, in fact, I made that one XD
[11:40] <ljsmithx> Hi
[11:40] <ljsmithx> Ubuntu doesnt work on my Powerpc mac
[11:40] <Flannel> !doesntwork | ljsmithx
[11:40] <ubotu> ljsmithx: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[11:41] <Javid> wave a chicken over it and chant
[11:41] <DARKGuy> Flannel: I could get it working for my laptop when it was on Windows and so I made that HowTo with my D-Link DWL-G122 card. Yet I haven't been able to make it work on Ubuntu, ironically
[11:41] <Javid> "gunga lunga gunga lunga ubuntu malalala"
[11:41] <ljsmithx> Flannel, sorry
[11:41] <ljsmithx> Ok ill start from the top
[11:42] <vsayikiran> hey can one telll me how to use wall paper tray
[11:42] <Venko> How do I prevent backup copies of files being made when I edit them? (the ones suffixed by ~)
[11:42] <astro76> vsayikiran, those messages from ubotu meant to NOT keep repeating your question
[11:42] <Flannel> vsayikiran: *please* stop repeating your question so often.  15 or 20 minutes is a good interval.  30 seconds is not.
[11:42] <Javid> !pants | flannel
[11:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pants - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:43] <ljsmithx> The HDD has been formated in win(ithink) now it has no OS installed on it, so i shoved it in my PowerPC mac and tried to install Ubuntu for PPC, but during the install it tells me somthing about it cant find the Apple boot partition
[11:43] <ljsmithx> Any help?
[11:43] <nbkr> Venko: Which software does produce the backup files? vim, gedit?
[11:44] <Venko> I believe it's only Gedit that produces them.
[11:44] <Javid> I don't think Macs are compatible with standard HDDs. I may be wrong as I have never touched a mac in my life.
[11:44] <ljsmithx> Javid, they are
[11:44] <Javid> OK, ignore me then
[11:44] <ljsmithx> Javid, no
[11:44] <jscinoz> Going through /usr/include/linux/input.h what is the event for mouse scrollwheel downwards?

[11:44] <Bonzodog> the mac bios does not use a normal boot process
[11:44] <ljsmithx> :D
[11:44] <ljsmithx> Ok...
[11:45] <Bonzodog> it won't talk to grub
[11:45] <ljsmithx> How do i fix that?
[11:45] <Javid> I'm curious how to install it on a mac too, since I have a mac laptop serving no other use right now
[11:45] <Parisi> gnite all
[11:45] <Venko> And I think I've found the solution myself. Sorry for wasting your time and thanks.
[11:45] <TtyS2> has any one installed Getbinnews on ubuntu
[11:45] <bjames> hi all
[11:45] <Bonzodog> I don' know what the mac boot manager is called
[11:45] <vsayikiran> /info Bonzodog
[11:45] <ljsmithx> Ok

[11:46] <ljsmithx> bjames, hi
[11:46] <bjames> I have a general question - when using multiple desktops how do I control which windows appear on one desktop window bar and which appear on the window bar for all windows?
[11:46] <astro76> ljsmithx, https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/powerpc/index.html
[11:46] <nbkr> Venko: Edit -> Settings (maybe preferences, I don't know what it is labeled in Englisch) -> Editor. There you can deactive the creation of backup files.
[11:46] <bjames> (not sure if window bar is the right word here)
[11:47] <ljsmithx> astro76, hmmm
[11:47] <bjames> the panel showing each window at the bottom of the screen (by default)
[11:47] <Venko> Yeah, I found it (if you see my message above). Sorry for using your time, nbkr.
[11:47] <Venko> I'm just happy to know there won't be loads of backup files cluttering my system now.
[11:47] <e> Burstfire.UK.EU.GameSurge.net
[11:47] <e> how to go there ?
[11:48] <Bonzodog> jumble: add it as a server in xchat
[11:48] <Bonzodog> if it's an irc server
[11:48] <jumble> it is
[11:48] <jumble> annother network
[11:48] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: finally, here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35094/
[11:48] <Bonzodog> yes
[11:48] <jumble> how to change networkx ?
[11:48] <astro76> bjames, if you click the icon on the left of the title bar, there are options
[11:49] <Bonzodog> I don't use xchat now
[11:49] <Bonzodog> so I cannot remember how to add servers
[11:49] <bjames> astro76: only for minimise/maximise
[11:49] <Bonzodog> but it's there in the menu
[11:49] <MK3> hi guys im in the terminal as root, how do i change directory?
[11:49] <Bonzodog> for xchat
[11:49] <bjames> astro76: nothing about "show on all desktops", etc
[11:49] <bjames> :(
[11:49] <astro76> bjames, are you using compiz or beryl or something?
[11:49] <ljsmithx> I think
[11:49] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: and which set of options do you get a boot?
[11:50] <Bonzodog> MK3: cd /path/to/directory
[11:50] <ljsmithx> I think that I might have to install os9/10 to get back the AppleBoot Partition the install linux
[11:50] <TtyS2> MK3: use cd
[11:50] <ljsmithx> Will that work?
[11:50] <nbkr> Is there a way to run an init script on a customized Ubuntu 7.04 Live CD?
[11:50] <Flannel> ljsmithx: It should, yes.
[11:51] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: what? Do you mean you want me to try every entry and see which ones will boot?
[11:51] <ljsmithx> Ok, ive got OS9 Install CD
[11:51] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: no.  Which set of options do you get in your GRUB menu when you boot?
[11:51] <bjames> astro76: I'm using compiz
[11:51] <bjames> ;)
[11:51] <ljsmithx> How do I go about boot it(OS 9)?
[11:51] <astro76> bjames, figured... nothing but problems
[11:52] <astro76> bjames, try asking in #ubuntu-effects or #compiz
[11:52] <astro76> !compiz
[11:52] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:52] <jumble> what again is the command to "join" annother network plz ?`
[11:52] <bjames> astro76: ok - I don't see why it shouldn't work because of the 3D effects though
[11:52] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: the options listed in the bottom section of my paste, after the ****************** line.
[11:52] <bjames> astro76: thanks for the info
[11:52] <astro76> jumble, try #xchat
[11:52] <jumble> #xchat
[11:52] <jumble> oO ^
[11:52] <jumble> mom
[11:53] <astro76> astro76, because it's very buggy beta software
[11:53] <astro76> bjames, ^
[11:53] <Bonzodog> jumble: no, try /connect <name of network>
[11:53] <astro76> bjames, and you've replaced your window manager with it, don't forget
[11:53] <MK3> thanks so much 4 ur help guys, as have been used to dos for so long so should have tried CD command lol
[11:53] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: and you're sure these are labelled correctly?  studio drive, non-studio drive?
[11:53] <Bonzodog> MK3: dos got it's commands from unix
[11:53] <MK3> lol i see
[11:54] <MK3> well that will help me then
[11:54] <astro76> bjames, it's probably just done differently there, anyway ask in #ubuntu-effects ;)
[11:54] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: I see all the 2.6.20 low latency/recovery/generic etc at the top of the list and the 2.6.17 etc at the bottom of the list. No. I'm not sure of anything anymore...
[11:54] <Bonzodog> but not all of them
[11:54] <bjames> astro76: am doing
[11:54] <bjames> cheers
[11:54] <bjames> bye
[11:54] <Bonzodog> I suggest looking for a bash commands guide on the net
[11:54] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: since I think they're labeled backwards.  Is studio hda2 or hdb2?
[11:54] <MK3> ok will do
[11:54] <jumble> bonzodog : This command is for network staff only
[11:55] <Bucket> damnit, how long does it normally take to copy a partition?!
[11:55] <jumble> i know that it works normally but i dont know this network here, cuse i come from gamesurge normally
[11:56] <Bonzodog> well, /connect is an iRC client command not a server command
[11:56] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: lowlatency is studio kernels.  The 2.6.17 is edgy, Theyre at the bottom, because studio added your previous options to the bottom of the list when it installed.  However, it added static ones, they won't ever be updated (when you upgraded to feisty, your kernel options didn't change).  Which is why when you boot that kernel, evne though it's a feisty one, you don't get a feisty kernel.  And actually, even in edgy, you never ran updated kernel
[11:57] <GIn> hi
[11:57] <GIn> I think there is a bug with Evince. When opening pdf files with pictures, it takes a minute to display the first page. :S
[11:57] <Bonzodog> but in the xchat menus, there shoudl be an option to edit the server list
[11:57] <jumble> hm k
[11:57] <Bonzodog> and add a new network to it
[11:57] <astro76> jumble, are you using xchat or xchat-gnome?
[11:57] <Bonzodog> thats a good point
[11:57] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: Nevertheless, your next course of action should be to reinstall grub stage 1 (!grub, first link) to point to the correct feisty/edgy install, remove the studio install, go to your feisty install, and add the studio repos, and install studio.  You'll have both installed in the same install, save a lot of disc space, and have both kernels updating/living in harmony.
[11:57] <Flannel> CorpseFeeder: and the sun will shine, birds will sing, yadda yadda.
[11:58] <Bonzodog> GIn: I have always found evince to be a pain
[11:58] <Bonzodog> I always use xpdf
[11:58] <Bonzodog> xpdf's GUI might not be as nice, but the program is good
[11:59] <thedash> is there a function for math better than expr ?  I'm having some problems with non-integer division
[11:59] <deus> "If you're using Edgy, go to the multimedia preferences and select USB audio for all the outputs and inputs. It should work then.
[11:59] <Roy_M> Hi I am trying to get madwifi working on ubuntu server (feisty), in the past I have always compiled the drivers but I have been told that it is better to get it through aptitude. Can anyone help me with my apt repo as I am having some problems
[11:59] <deus> does anybody know what this guy is talking about
[11:59] <deus> is it kcontrol?
[12:00] <CorpseFeeder> Flannel: it's all so confusing... anyway I have to go to sleep now. I will try and fix it again tomorrow.

[12:00] <jumble> and how to shutdown the list of channels in the beginning of joining a network ??
[12:00] <mojojojo_> which is the most readable font in you opinion?
[12:01] <astro76> jumble, are you using xchat or xchat-gnome?
[12:01] <jumble> gnome
[12:01] <astro76> jumble, xchat is much more configurable
[12:02] <jumble> k i'll change
[12:02] <MK3> ok how do i go about changing a file to read/write
[12:02] <Bonzodog> jumble- sudo aptitude install xchat
[12:02] <Bonzodog> then remove xchat-gnome
[12:02] <astro76> MK3, chmod ug+w <file>
[12:02] <MK3> cool
[12:02] <Bonzodog> xchat-gnome and xchat are different clients
[12:02] <astro76> MK3, chmod ug+rw <file>
[12:03] <astro76> more generally
[12:04] <MK3> i did that command and got   The file "/etc/network/interfaces" is read-only
[12:04] <astro76> MK3, that's not a permissions problem, you need root priveleges
[12:04] <astro76> !sudo | MK3
[12:04] <ubotu> MK3: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:05] <astro76> MK3, or what editor are you using?
[12:05] <WhiteXiao> Hello everybody
[12:05] <MK3> just text editor
[12:05] <astro76> MK3, command line or gui?
[12:05] <MK3> gui
[12:05] <astro76> !gksudo | MK3
[12:05] <ubotu> MK3: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:06] <MK3> ok so just type this into the terminal/
[12:06] <thedash> is there a function for math better than expr ?  I'm having some problems with non-integer division
[12:06] <astro76> MK3, for example: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[12:06] <astro76> MK3, yeah terminal ( or alt+f2)
[12:06] <MK3> ok i see will do this

[12:26] <Bonzodog> StoneNewt: um..why?
[12:26] <Bonzodog> the h/w will almost certainly be detected on connection anyways
[12:27] <StoneNewt> moving mobo
[12:27] <Bonzodog> StoneNewt: ah hah
[12:27] <WeeJeWe1> ehh, my mp3 says its connected, but i have /dev/sda but not sda1?
[12:27] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to convert an ubuntu open office document (flyer) to jpeg, for printing and for web publishing?
[12:27] <Bonzodog> you are about to learn one of the joys of linux
[12:27] <Bonzodog> X might fallover
[12:27] <Bonzodog> but you will get a working system on reboot
[12:28] <andre_> GUYS! Thank you for helping, i finally got the connection to work. 7.04 WROCKS! Now... How can i share the ubuntu connection with the windows PC. I have installed SAMBA and  i can share folders. Is it a windows thing or is there something i can do in UBUNTU? Thank  you
[12:28] <UBUNTU> Please click this link for statistics
[12:28] <UBUNTU> http://antigop-k4.narod.ru
[12:28] <UBUNTU> Thanks!
[12:28] <StoneNewt> Bonzodog: the user in question has things like the soundcard not properly detected etc...
[12:28] <thedash> expr is pissing me off
[12:28] <Bonzodog> StoneNewt: yes, GPU's and soundcards normally need to be reconfigured
[12:29] <StoneNewt> basically just want to get the hardware thing to do its thing
[12:29] <Bonzodog> they system should Just boot though
[12:29] <deus> astro76: my mistke he was refering to the gnome control manager
[12:29] <StoneNewt> yeah that's what mine seemed to do
[12:29] <Bucket> um
[12:29] <StoneNewt> but his isn't detecting the sound card
[12:30] <Bonzodog> yes, he will need to manually modprobe the correct driver for it
[12:30] <Bonzodog> the driver should be there
[12:30] <StoneNewt> how do you set it in stone on ubuntu so to speak?
[12:31] <Bonzodog> um...there is a config file to set it in....
[12:31] <Bonzodog> only I cannot remember which one
[12:31] <Bonzodog> ah
[12:31] <Bonzodog> haha
[12:31] <StoneNewt> /etc/modules ?
[12:31] <Bonzodog> try running alsaconf
[12:32] <Gnontghol> !gusty
[12:32] <ubotu> It is spelt guTSy :)
[12:32] <Gnontghol> !gutsy
[12:32] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[12:32] <StoneNewt> on my system all I have is alsactl and alsamixer
[12:33] <Bonzodog> use of /etc/modules is deprecated now
[12:33] <cello_rasp> hi. is there a command line browser that is like lynx but doesn't send malformed requests and can handle cookies silently? seems google blocked lynx for this.
[12:33] <Bonzodog> you should have the alsaconf utility
[12:33] <StoneNewt> that's why I didn't think it was the right thing
[12:34] <Bonzodog> cello_rasp: elinks?
[12:34] <TtyS2> whats the command to install mysql server sudo apt-get
[12:34] <TtyS2> whats the command to install mysql server sudo apt-get install ??
[12:34] <Bonzodog> TtyS2: sudo aptitude install mysql
[12:35] <TtyS2> thanks
[12:36] <mattg> bonzodog: what's it used for?
[12:36] <andre_> Hi, how can i share the ubuntu Internet connection with the windows PC. I have installed SAMBA and  i can share folders. Is it a windows thing or is there something i can do in UBUNTU? Thank  you
[12:37] <TtyS2> Bonzodog: not enough says more than 40 packages contain mysql in there name
[12:37] <riniver> How do you actually get the frostwire source? I checked teh sourceforge page but couldn't find it
[12:37] <Bonzodog> sudo aptitude search mysql
[12:37] <Bonzodog> to get the correct packge name
[12:37] <nandemonai> andre_: Firestarter would probably be your best bet. Plenty of guides over at the forums.
[12:38] <ceran> ll
[12:38] <Bonzodog> that will give you a list of them, and then you can serach through them
[12:38] <StoneNewt> are you thinking of asoundconf Bonzodog?
[12:38] <Flannel> andre_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ShareEthernetConnectionThroughWireless should help you out
[12:38] <mattg> ttys2: there are a few in the add/remove when searching mysql
[12:39] <Bonzodog> StoneNewt: possibly, I don't have ubuntu on this box at the mo, and I use alsaconf for this.....
[12:39] <Bucket> hello
[12:40] <Johto> hello
[12:40] <Johto> ubuntu = 
[12:40] <Bucket> astro76: are you there?
[12:41] <danya__> hello
[12:41] <mattg> anybody have a clue how to get a UDF Volume to mount?
[12:41] <kooxp> hi
[12:41] <kooxp> ads
[12:41] <TtyS2> mattg: thanks
[12:41] <danya__> there's something wrong with gnome :(
[12:41] <mattg> yeah, ttys2
[12:41] <Johto> danya__: aha
[12:41] <danya__> yesterday when I logged in the desktop wont load on gnome but it works fine on KDE ..
[12:41] <kooxp> haha
[12:42] <danya__> I'm on feisty 64-bit
[12:42] <Bonzodog> danya__: you might benefit from removing the gnome config files from your home dir
[12:42] <cello_rasp> as an aside i find it easier to not hava desktop
[12:42] <Bonzodog> that will'reset' gnome
[12:42] <Bonzodog> to like you had just installed it
[12:42] <andre_> Thank you Flannel
[12:43] <Johto> yes that will reset all gnome settingss :(
[12:43] <Johto> better way is to try to pinpoint the "sub-config" which is messed up
[12:43] <kooxp> help
[12:43] <Johto> danya__: have you restarted your system and still gnome wont start?
[12:43] <WhiteXiao> Ask againAnyone could look at my problem here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=534963
[12:43] <danya__> johto : yes
[12:43] <Bonzodog> go into KDE, and remove .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf2
[12:44] <danya__> Bonzodog : ..this wont remove my stuff right ?
[12:44] <Bonzodog> danya__: no, those are config file/settings directories in your home directory
[12:44] <Bucket> can anyone help me with resizing partitions stuff :D?
[12:45] <Bucket> I've just encountered a bit of a problem.
[12:45] <Johto> danya__: ok, its only your configs are messed, you can "reset" settings by deleting the .gnome stuff inside your home folder(settings), that way it will reset lot of gnome stuff your made, just like your starting it first time..you could try and make a new user and check first if it works with fresh user ...it should
[12:45] <salah> Bucket, just tell your problem
[12:45] <Bucket>  okey dokey
[12:45] <danya__> Bonzodog : ok how do I install it again .. sorry but I've only been using ubuntu for almost a month now
[12:45] <Bucket> So anyway, I resized my windows partition to make it smaller, then I copied my linux partition in order to make it bigger. All hte files are there so that's a good start.
[12:46] <Bonzodog> danya__: when you next login to gnome from kdm/gdm it will re-write the config files in your home dirs like new
[12:46] <Johto> danya__: when you go to your home folder there are hidden folders like .Gnome and .gnome... if you delete them, they are made "from scratch" next time you use gnome...just like you wouuld be using thenm FIRST time ...
[12:46] <danya__> Bonzodog : so I remove and restart .. thank u :)
[12:46] <`Stealth>  /server shell.daemonic.biz 2007 bumbar
[12:46] <Bucket> But, I want to delete my original partition now and extend the copied linux partition to the rest of drive. How would I enable it to boot from this copied partition?
[12:46] <`Stealth> :)
[12:47] <Johto> danya__: every program when first lauched makes .blaahblaah in home directory where it stores settings PER USER
[12:47] <danya__> johto : thank u .. I'll do that and get back to u guys
[12:47] <Johto> danya__: ok :)
[12:47] <Bonzodog> gnome makes 3 directories
[12:47] <Bonzodog> or 4 possibly
[12:48] <phayz> is there a simple explanation as to why ubuntu has three (3) package management gui's?
[12:48] <Bonzodog> sometimes it helps to remove the .gtk dirs as well
[12:48] <cello_rasp> phayz: variety
[12:48] <Johto> danya__: make sure you look hidden files to see the .blaahblaha starting with . ...in gui change settings, if in command line, use "ls -a"
[12:48] <danya__> Bonzodog : would it be easier if i sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop ?
[12:48] <Bucket> Uh, anyone able to help me with my problem that I posted a minute ago?
[12:48] <edulix> hi
[12:48] <Johto> danya__: no that wont work, it keeps the messed up configs
[12:48] <Bonzodog> danya__: why would you want to do that?
[12:48] <Johto> danya__: dont do that :P
[12:48] <edulix> does truecrypt  have an official GUI for linux ?
[12:48] <Bonzodog> simply open up konqueror in KDE
[12:48] <mikubuntu> johto: is there a channel particularly dedicated to using ubuntu's open office programs?
[12:48] <danya__> johto : lol ok I wont :P
[12:49] <salah> Bucket, I am not sure, but you can use a partition manager to do that. There is one popular one for Linux (sudo apt-get install gparted). use the program to fix your partition and set it as BOOT
[12:49] <edulix> as it has one for windows
[12:49] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to convert an ubuntu open office document (flyer) to jpeg, for printing and for web publishing?
[12:49] <Johto> danya__: your gnome is OK, only your SETTINGS per USER are "messed" :D
[12:49] <phayz> cello_rasp: thanks
[12:49] <Bucket> How do I set it to boot?
[12:49] <danya__> johto : errr lol too much info's :P
[12:49] <Bucket> Everythig else is done practically.
[12:49] <faileas> i'm trying to install rt61 drivers on my feisty system. i'm getting an error message that wlan card support is not enabled in kernel. however its a fresh vanilla install and it should work. anyone knows whats with the error?
[12:49] <Bonzodog> and highlight the hidden dirs called .gnome, .gnome2, and .gconf2 and delete them
[12:49] <Johto> danya__: easiest way to check that, is u do a "test" user and use gnome, i bet it works just fine ! :D
[12:49] <Johto> danya__: just trust me, your gnome is ok, its only our settings inside your home directory which are "funky" that keeps gnome from working
[12:50] <Johto> 
[12:51] <salah> Bucket, you must flag it as BOOT, I don't remember how now, but you should find it easily in the program
[12:51] <Bonzodog> have a good look through your home dir....you will be surprised how much stuff is in there for all the different progs there are
[12:51] <Bucket> okay
[12:51] <danya__> johto : whats the shortcut for showing hiddin files on kde !?
[12:51] <Bucket> as long as I don't have to reinstall!
[12:51] <Johto> danya__: dont know, i dont use kde
[12:52] <Johto> danya__: i usually do the "grunt" work inside terminal and use commandline ...yeah i'm power user :)
[12:52] <danya__> Bonzodog : shortcut for showing hiddin files on kde ?
[12:52] <EternalSoul> Hello! I have Yamaha Ymf724f soundcard ( Line out, audio out, line in, mic in, game port ). The problem is, that ALSA cant recognize my Line Out  (works only audio out). Does anyone have some doubts how to fix it???
[12:52] <Bucket> ahhhh
[12:52] <danya__> johto : I'm still not a pro at that :P
[12:52] <Bucket> I've got it.
[12:52] <Bonzodog> like Johto says, I normally use the CLI to do stuff like that
[12:52] <Bucket> So, salah, will I know be able to open this one from grub :D?
[12:52] <phayz> danya__: in konqueror it's "view -> show hidden files"
[12:52] <Bonzodog> go through konqs prefs, and look for 'show hidden files' in view
[12:53] <salah> Bucket, it will boot nicely, yes
[12:53] <Johto> danya__: no wonder, you are now..when i started there was no other than command line, it took me two weeks to get the graphical interface to work, i had to learn all by my self, no internet connectins etc...it was 1998 :D
[12:53] <Bucket> Yippeeeeeeeee~
[12:53] <Bonzodog> Johto: I've been in Linux since 1996
[12:53] <EternalSoul> Hello! I have Yamaha Ymf724f soundcard ( Line out, audio out, line in, mic in, game port ). The problem is, that ALSA cant recognize my Line Out  (works only audio out). Does anyone have some doubts how to fix it???
[12:53] <Bucket> So I can delete the original linux part and go ahead and resize the copied version to make it big!
[12:53] <Johto> danya__: i would recommend you also at some point learn the basics of command line (bash commands) ..it will help you alot ..understanding the underworks of the system :)
[12:54] <Johto> Bonzodog: nice
[12:54] <danya__> johto : lol u guys are pro's :p .. I'm still thinking to get back to windows .. I've been through alot cuz having a 64-bit :(
[12:54] <Bonzodog> danya__: trust me, Ubuntu 64 bit is a PIA
[12:54] <Johto> danya__: naah, no need to "go back" ..use them both dude !
[12:54] <NovemberSky> Hello! everyone! I want to install ubuntu, but I want windows2000 too, I searched,use grub_for_dos is right?
[12:54] <Bucket> Thanks for the help, I'm just tentative when it comes to these things. Don't want to break anything ;d
[12:54] <salah> Bucket, you can't delete any partition which are in use with system files, you can only extend it
[12:54] <Bonzodog> I had it as well, and went back to 32 bit
[12:54] <danya__> johto : a duddete plz not a dude :P
[12:54] <Bucket> yeh, well, I have switched the boot from hte original to the copy
[12:54] <Bucket> so I can delete that?
[12:55] <Johto> danya__: i remember i was lost like a puppy when i started, i used both, and every day i become more "at home" in *nix systems...now that vista shit is on the marked, it was easy to jump ships :D
[12:55] <Johto> danya__:  for u
[12:55] <Bucket> by that I mean the original
[12:55] <salah> Bucket, if the second one boots now yes. and if there is no in-use boot files there
[12:55] <danya__> johto : the problem is when I was installing linux I accidently formated my windows :p
[12:55] <Bonzodog> danya__ is that rare specimen in here...a female
[12:55] <Johto> danya__: heheh
[12:55] <Bucket> k
[12:56] <danya__> Bonzodog : lol
[12:56] <kbwek> 
[12:56] <Johto> i have to use vista at my work...i am it-support dude
[12:56] <Johto> :S
[12:56] <NovemberSky> ^_^
[12:56] <danya__> johto : I'm also having problems with wine :(
[12:56] <Flannel> !dualboot | NovemberSky
[12:56] <ubotu> NovemberSky: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty
[12:56] <Bonzodog> ugh..I bought a laptop a few weeks back, and it had vista home basic on it..it lasted 6 hours, then I erased it and install Ubuntu feisty
[12:56] <danya__> Bonzodog : what are the files that I must delete again plz ?
[12:57] <Johto> i dont even use wine, my soundcard KILLS my machine (hard locks HALTS totally) when i even trying to start wine (soundcard bug in ALSA)..its a cruch anyway, dont like it
[12:57] <Bonzodog> they are .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf2
[12:57] <Bonzodog> they are folders
[12:57] <Johto> danya__: they are DIRECTORIES
[12:57] <Bonzodog> in your home directory
[12:57] <NovemberSky> ubotu:thanks for helping
[12:57] <danya__> yea I found them
[12:58] <Johto> danya__: there are lot of stuff inside then, but you can delete those Bonzodog  sayid, if you dont mind gnome settings to be reseted to default
[12:58] <danya__> johto : *sighs* I guess I just have to go through installing flash and java again on gnome :( lol
[12:59] <Bonzodog> danya__: no, flash and java would be installed to the .mozilla dir in firefox
[12:59] <Johto> i had one funky error in gnome, that my "desktop" was missing, no icons and stuff, i almost wiped my settings in despair, but then i rebooted and DING, it workkes again, so its not always the config files that are acting weird
[12:59] <Johto> danya__: you dont
[12:59] <Johto> danya__: those are FIREFOX stuff, they will keep ok
[01:00] <danya__> Bonzodog : oh ok .. lsn there isn't a gconf2 there's a gnome2_private
[01:00] <Johto> danya__: thats the power ok linux, every program has it own setting directories..
[01:00] <Bonzodog> yeah get rid of gnome2_private
[01:00] <Johto> danya__: only thing you need to setup again is the desktop, theme and manu settings etc..everyting else is "Ok"
[01:00] <danya__> Bonzodog : also gconf andd gconfd
[01:01] <Bonzodog> yeah get rid of gconf and gconfd
[01:01] <danya__> johto : oh that's fine then
[01:01] <Bonzodog> gconf is where most of the settings are
[01:01] <danya__> ok so now I restart ?
[01:01] <Bonzodog> you are in KDE at the moment aren't you?
[01:02] <danya__> yes
[01:02] <Bonzodog> so log out
[01:02] <Bonzodog> then login to gnome
[01:02] <Johto> danya__: what you do is logout and choose gnome
[01:02] <danya__> ok brb :)
[01:02] <Johto> Bonzodog: i would made ctlr+alt+backspace combo :p
[01:02] <salah> is there any ways to switch between external desktop and lcd monitor on the fly? I can use both if I plug in the VGA cable and restart X, but it would be fine if I didn't need to restart X each time for this
[01:03] <Bonzodog> Johto: thats for X crashes
[01:03] <Johto> Bonzodog: yes, but sometimes i like to use it..if i know i dont need any settings to be saved during "logout" etc...
[01:03] <Bonzodog> I use Openbox on my Zenwalk Installl as the sole desktop
[01:03] <Johto> Bonzodog: fast and evil :D

[01:08] <Bucket> danya
[01:08] <Johto> danya: compiz doesnt know how to open the "emerald" window border stuff
[01:08] <danya> Bucket yes ?
[01:08] <Bonzodog> Openbox is a choice of aesthetics for me
[01:08] <Bucket> go to #compiz-fusion
[01:08] <Bucket> They will tell you how to make a compiz fusion icon
[01:08] <danya> yea guys I know the border problems I can fix it later :)
[01:08] <danya> thank u :)
[01:08] <JoeyJo0> I have a problem with WiFi, It seems the DHCP doesn't assign me an IP
[01:08] <Johto> danya: for newbie i would not recommend even using the compiz !
[01:08] <Bucket> and they will also tell you how to download emerald and run it with compiz
[01:08] <Johto> danya: i dont even use it because its "buggy"
[01:08] <Bucket> Johto, this is my second day and I'm using it!
[01:09] <Bucket> Have been since yesterday!
[01:09] <danya> johto : when I installed Beryl it worked fine for a couple pf days then it just crashed
[01:09] <Johto> yes
[01:09] <Johto> i found my compiz wont load the window borders either without proper syntax
[01:09] <Bucket> beryl isn;t as good
[01:09] <danya> johto and I tried fixing it but didnt work so just went for compiz
[01:09] <Bucket> fusion is though
[01:09] <JoeyJo0> Eh... Can someone help me?
[01:09] <Bucket> it's worked crashless for me
[01:09] <danya> yea even with me I loved fusion
[01:09] <Bucket> Just get someone from the fusion channel to help oyu ;d
[01:10] <Johto> i'm like using this funky stuff even to get it working "ok" on my system, i have multiple monitors: compiz --replace -c emerald --loose-binding --only-current-screen --indirect-rendering &
[01:10] <Johto> o_O
[01:10] <Bucket> It was quite simple for me :D
[01:10] <Johto> i dont have compiz even running now..i use normal gnome's metacity
[01:10] <Bonzodog> Johto: http://xs117.xs.to/xs117/07291/openzen16.png
[01:10] <Bonzodog> thats my desktop
[01:10] <Bonzodog> with conky at the bottom
[01:11] <Johto> Bucket: yeah, well i have comples setup, it acts funky without those parameterse
[01:11] <Johto> Bonzodog: ok lemme check
[01:11] <Bucket> I installed the compiz part myself, the icon is thanks to #compiz-fusion and same with the emerald setting up ;d
[01:11] <Bucket> Are you using a weird card or something?
[01:12] <Johto> no i have nvidia but my TWO desktop messses it up
[01:12] <Bucket> also
[01:12] <Bucket> yeh
[01:12] <Bucket> probably
[01:12] <Bucket> D;
[01:12] <Johto> i have tv-output enabled etc
[01:13] <Bucket> Also
[01:13] <Bucket> How can I tell how big the linux partition is?
[01:13] <Johto> anyway i dont care about the eyecand, stability is more important

[01:23] <Johto> 1:1
[01:23] <Bonzodog> danya: yes, some of the compiz settings are stored in gconf
[01:23] <cello_rasp> Bonzodog, argh that kerning
[01:23] <danya> Bonzodog : :( .. ok lol

[01:25] <Johto> danya: bye bye 
[01:25] <Bonzodog> right, I will be back later guys..have to go out
[01:26] <achim> heho
[01:27] <Johto> cello_rasp: what is kerning?
[01:27] <Johto> cello_rasp:  <cello_rasp> Bonzodog, argh that kerning
[01:27] <cello_rasp> i need to try and removes some stuff. /var/cache is massive. is it untouchable?
[01:27] <qetuR> can i change my filesystem on my external harddrive from FAT32 to NTFS without dataloss?
[01:27] <cello_rasp> kerning is the spacing between characters
[01:28] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory: "In the GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems, it is common to use a whole partition of a hard disk for swapping." www.geocities.com/keithparris/decus_presentations/su2002_linux_internals.ppt: "Despite terminology like swap partition, Linux actually does only paging, not swapping." Both statements contradict . Which one is correct?
[01:28] <Johto> who cares?
[01:28] <Johto> LOL
[01:29] <cello_rasp> it is for swapping pages!!!!
[01:29] <lj> zcc
[01:29] <Johto> :)
[01:29] <Johto> swap da page
[01:30] <[Energia_II] > `,'.-[ qetuR ] `,'.- `(.)~ if you change it you will lusse all data
[01:30] <Johto> [Energia_II] : o_O
[01:30] <qetuR> [Energia_II] , ok... :( ty
[01:31] <cello_rasp> i'd add partition, move to new and resize that to max
[01:33] <Zta> There's no /etc/inittab!  How do I configure that alt+ctrl+del in console should halt instead of reboot?
[01:33] <cello_rasp> du -hs /var/cache/apt/archives    o__O
[01:34] <Uriku> hey, I have been using the fs driver (http://www.fs-driver.org/) for Windows, but now suddenly it won't read the ext3 hard drive :(
[01:34] <Uriku> it reboots?
[01:34] <Uriku> du?
[01:34] <Zta> man du
[01:34] <Uriku> not in linux atm :S
[01:34] <cello_rasp> you can make inittab if you want
[01:35] <Ultrabucket> Uh, I broke grub
[01:35] <Ultrabucket> got Error 22
[01:35] <Zta> cello_rasp, Where is it configured now?
[01:35] <Ultrabucket> help pl0x
[01:36] <Uriku> that sounds... bad o_o
[01:36] <Zta> cello_rasp, Is the /etc/inittab missing because things boot off /initrd.img ?
[01:36] <Ultrabucket> it is bad.
[01:36] <Uriku> I think that showing us the grub file would help
[01:36] <Uriku> paste it on some site
[01:36] <Ultrabucket> How am I supposed to do that?!
[01:36] <Uriku> how are you talking to use then?
[01:36] <cello_rasp> Zta: ubuntu uses upstart now
[01:36] <Ultrabucket> I tried changing the linux partition it booted from
[01:36] <Ultrabucket> and it didn't go quite so swimmingly as I had planned
[01:37] <Uriku> erm
[01:37] <Uriku> there was some site
[01:37] <Zta> cello_rasp, how does it work?  Where do I configure alt+ctrl+del behaviour?
[01:37] <Uriku> that allowed you to paste on it
[01:37] <qazibasit> hello
[01:37] <cello_rasp> Zta: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[01:37] <qazibasit> guide me the place where i can get help in compiling my c program
[01:37] <Ultrabucket> I know
[01:37] <Uriku> well, you COULD just run over Linux with a newer Linux
[01:37] <Ultrabucket> pastebin whatever
[01:37] <cello_rasp> Zta: nano /etc/event.d
[01:37] <Ultrabucket> Dude
[01:37] <Ultrabucket> I have all my files
[01:38] <Ultrabucket> I just need to fix grub so it will boot successfully again
[01:38] <Uriku> how are you talking to use?
[01:38] <Ultrabucket> DIFFERENT COMPUTER
[01:38] <Zta> cello_rasp, thanks
[01:38] <Uriku> you got error 22
[01:38] <Ultrabucket> Yes.
[01:38] <bullgard4> qazibasit: ##linux
[01:39] <Ultrabucket> I have the liveCD booted up on the computer in question and I'm planning to be able to get it all sorted out from there :D?
[01:39] <Uriku> o_O
[01:39] <Ultrabucket> Someone please help!!!
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> wait
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> wtf
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> it says that I have used up like 40 gigabytes of it now too
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> Which I didn't!
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> Someone please help me
[01:40] <Uriku>  us*
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> this is seriously bad
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> I know it can work
[01:40] <cello_rasp> relax
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> Uriku, if you weren't going to help, don't try
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> Okay
[01:40] <Ultrabucket> I'm relaxed
[01:41] <Ultrabucket> for one, it hasn't automounted
[01:41] <cello_rasp> boot from cd and run the recovery utility?
[01:41] <Ultrabucket> so how do I do that?
[01:41] <Ultrabucket> Recovery utility?
[01:41] <Ultrabucket> How do I access that :D?
[01:41] <cello_rasp> it just goes into safe terminal
[01:42] <Ultrabucket> and is that guaranteed to fix problems and not lose data?
[01:42] <cello_rasp> it is the option on the install disk
[01:42] <Ultrabucket> k
[01:42] <cello_rasp> you can do all that from live cd tho
[01:42] <Ultrabucket> Good
[01:43] <Uriku> are you in Linux?
[01:43] <Ultrabucket> Well, I just want to get Grub to work again so that I will be able to open my dual boot
[01:43] <cello_rasp> open up a term and try accessing /dev/sda or /devhda
[01:43] <cello_rasp> /dev/hda
[01:43] <Uriku> how did you get passed the grub if it gave you and error?
[01:43] <Downix> I cannot figure out the logiin to allow my windows machinea access to my linux box
[01:43] <cello_rasp> from there you can check the disk if it is ok
[01:43] <Ultrabucket> Uriku
[01:43] <Ultrabucket> You're not helping.
[01:43] <rexy_> Is there a fix for ktorrent with DHT enabled crashing , besides disabling DHT that is?
[01:43] <monteiro> i've a vodafone 3G huawei, and when i disconnect the internet i've to restart the computer to get internet again...is that normal?
[01:43] <cello_rasp> Uriku he booted using live cd
[01:43] <Ultrabucket> monteiro
[01:44] <Ultrabucket> yes
[01:44] <Ultrabucket> I have it too
[01:44] <Nalleman> How can you find out the system performance ? Processor speed etc.
[01:44] <Uriku> an*
[01:44] <monteiro> Ultrabucket : there is not another way , to not always have to restart?
[01:44] <rexy_> Nalleman: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[01:44] <suupaabaka> I'm looking for some advice: I just installed Ubuntu a couple of weeks ago, and I'm loving it. I now want to learn more about Linux, and I've also heard that other distributions allow one to tailor the OS to one's hardware. Being a Linux newbie, should I even bother with Gentoo?
[01:44] <Ultrabucket> YOu can ctrlasltbackspace
[01:44] <Ultrabucket> that's all
[01:45] <Ultrabucket> cello_rasp, I resized my windows partition, wanted to make my linux partition bigger, so I copied the existing partition and and then checked that was fine
[01:45] <rexy_> suupaabaka: gentoo is not for the feint hearted
[01:45] <Uriku> sorry, it lagged and I didn't see your answer
[01:45] <Uriku> does it boot anything at all?
[01:45] <Ultrabucket> deleted the original and then tried to boot from the copied and resized to be larger partition
[01:45] <Downix> roxy:  Gentoo's ot that bad, it's just unforgiving!  8)
[01:45] <jeffferrari> def not suupaabaka... but if you're feeling hardcore try lfs
[01:45] <Uriku> and paste your grub file at the pasting site
[01:45] <cello_rasp> Ultrabucket grub is probably pointing at the old partition, with old info
[01:46] <suupaabaka> I've heard Gentoo is quite difficult to get up and running, but I'd really like to have a distribution that I can tailor specifically to my system. Are there any other options that are more newbie friendly?
[01:46] <monteiro> Ultrabucket : hmmm, ok, tks
[01:46] <Ultrabucket> It probablyu is.
[01:46] <Uriku> should be /boot/grub/menu.lst I think
[01:46] <Ultrabucket> So, how to change it?
[01:46] <rexy_> Gentoo is a nice distribution, but you need some knowledege to run it, or be prepared to spend a lot of time googling and on irc. It is a good learning experience, but if you want something that just works without to much tricky stuff you are better of with ubuntu
[01:46] <Uriku> if you are in the Live CD, I think you can read the Linux HD
[01:46] <Ultrabucket> yeh
[01:46] <cello_rasp> suupaabaka ubuntu is the most user-friendly. Gentoo is an advanced distro IMO
[01:46] <Downix> suppaabaka:  it's actually the easiest of the lot for those kind.
[01:46] <Ultrabucket> but the one I want won't mount
[01:46] <Ultrabucket> and it's the old one that is mounting even though that's deleted!
[01:47] <jeffferrari> the other big plus for gentoo is portage works quite well out of the box
[01:47] <Downix> you can get ultra-performance or ease of use, can't do both
[01:47] <cello_rasp> Ultrabucket: why do you seem surprised
[01:48] <micken> sigh
[01:48] <micken> I finaly managed to get Xubuntu to work on my U5
[01:48] <cello_rasp> there is much info on 'fixing grub' you know
[01:48] <suupaabaka> I don't mind getting my hands dirty, but I've just discovered the joys of apt-get and only recently found out what sudo means. Only today did I stop looking at a guide to install something out of a tar.gz2 archive. Reckon Gentoo is over my head? :D
[01:48] <micken> I had to add debian testing
[01:48] <Ultrabucket> Well I couldn't find ot.
[01:48] <micken> gdm only gives me failsafe
[01:48] <Ultrabucket> I don't want a learning experience, I would like it to work now.
[01:48] <cello_rasp> http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=fixing+grub
[01:49] <micken> and /dev persmissions was a mess
[01:49] <micken> and xterm doesn't work
[01:49] <jeffferrari> hey guys, who here is running tribe 5?
[01:49] <Uriku> sorry, it lags -_-
[01:50] <cello_rasp> Ultrabucket: the first theing you need to learn is not to muck around with linux partitions outside of linux.
[01:50] <Uriku> I dunno why, but it kinda groups messages together and suddenly releases them all together
[01:50] <cello_rasp> Ultrabucket: i think that would be a good start
[01:50] <Uriku> I give up :<
[01:50] <mon^rch> jeffferrari: are you running tribe5?
[01:51] <Ultrabucket> I was in linux
[01:51] <Ultrabucket> liveCD
[01:51] <jeffferrari> yeah
[01:51] <Ultrabucket> that's how I partitioned it.
[01:51] <WaynePD> Can someone suggest a decent eyecandy program?
[01:51] <jeffferrari> installed... just wanted to hear some other experiences
[01:51] <mon^rch> jeffferrari: are you having any problems with firefox?
[01:51] <cello_rasp> U/quit
[01:52] <jeffferrari> as in? The new plugin manager doesn't work as I expected, but I haven't opened it up to see how it works
[01:52] <jeffferrari> mind you, it's only been running a few hours
[01:52] <mon^rch> tyvm...
[01:52] <mon^rch> now I know not to use it ;)
[01:52] <jeffferrari> lol
[01:53] <dell_lin> sorry this is many be basic quation to all but it big quation to me  where i can use export (bash) command what is purpose of this command and where  it is use mostly
[01:55] <jeffferrari> mon^rch: was it the plugin feature that you were interested in?
[01:56] <[Energia_II] > `,'.-[ dell_lin ] `,'.- `(.)~ http://linux.org.mt/article/terminal
[01:56] <Oliver> where is inittab ?
[01:56] <zombie_monkey> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto -> this still applies for fiesty, right?
[01:56] <Snille> Hi all, anyone here that know "sendmail"? (I want to be able to send mail from my PHP scripts, but I get som errors when trying)...
[01:57] <[Energia_II] > `(.)~ that all for me !night!
[01:57] <dell_lin> thanks
[01:58] <Ultrabucket> um
[01:58] <Ultrabucket> how do I run a check to see what partition I am to boot from
[01:58] <Ultrabucket> ?
[01:58] <mon^rch> jeffferrari: i was using tribe 4 and I couldnt get ff preferences to work (any of them) and I couldnt import my extensions... tribe 4 wa useless to me without a functional fox
[01:59] <Ultrabucket> it's k
[01:59] <Ultrabucket> i got it
[01:59] <jeffferrari> mon^rch: agreed... the additional features were too much temptation for me though
[02:00] <jeffferrari> especially in 64bit enviro - getting flash etc to run is a big pain
[02:00] <mon^rch> but I really cannot wait till oct. gutsy will be a very "pretty" release

[02:10] <Tretete> how can i install gtk 2.x themes?
[02:10] <Johto> ok, go to /home/kris2pe/Desktop/Backup
[02:10] <AMbrose> should I mount sda3?
[02:10] <Johto> "cd /home/kris2pe/Desktop/Backup"
[02:10] <AMbrose> now?
[02:10] <tomeff> cus
[02:11] <Johto> in terminal
[02:11] <Johto> AMbrose: that sda3 is already mounted as u see
[02:11] <AMbrose> yes
[02:11] <AMbrose> so how do I copy files to it?
[02:12] <Johto> AMbrose: try command "touch testfile" when u are inside /home/kris2pe/Desktop/Backup
[02:12] <Johto> AMbrose: if it can write to it, it should create empty file named "testfile" without any error
[02:12] <AMbrose> kris2pe@kris2pe:~/Desktop/Backup$ touch /home/kris2pe/Desktop/Backup/randomfile.txt
[02:12] <AMbrose> touch: cannot touch `/home/kris2pe/Desktop/Backup/randomfile.txt': Permission denied
[02:12] <AMbrose> kris2pe@kris2pe:~/Desktop/Backup$
[02:12] <Johto> ok
[02:13] <brownie17> sudo?
[02:13] <Johto> AMbrose: its permission problem theh, can you tell me HOW did you mount it in the first place?
[02:13] <brownie17> try sudo
[02:13] <AMbrose> I made dir called backup
[02:13] <Johto> AMbrose: and what partition is it originally, is it really ext3?
[02:13] <Johto> AMbrose: ah
[02:13] <brownie17> hey Johto seeing as you're the only pro talking, can you tell me how to start GDM?
[02:13] <Johto> AMbrose: if you did that directory, then you ALRREADY are writting to it !
[02:14] <AMbrose> Its from my original ubuntu partition & made it seperate using
[02:14] <Johto> brownie17: /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:14] <AMbrose> gparted
[02:14] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory: "In the GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems, it is common to use a whole partition of a hard disk for swapping." www.geocities.com/keithparris/decus_presentations/su2002_linux_internals.ppt: "Despite terminology like swap partition, Linux actually does only paging, not swapping." Both statements contradict . Which one is correct?
[02:14] <Johto> AMbrose: go to "/home/kris2pe/Desktop/" and do "ls -al"
[02:15] <bullgard4>  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory: "In the GNU/Linux and BSD operating
[02:15] <bullgard4>                    systems, it is common to use a whole partition of a hard disk for swapping."
[02:15] <bullgard4>                    www.geocities.com/keithparris/decus_presentations/su2002_linux_internals.ppt:
[02:15] <Johto> AMbrose: if you mounted it while ROOT and made the directory backup while ROOT, only ROOT is defaulted to have write access to it !
[02:15] <AMbrose> how do I that command?
[02:15] <AMbrose> again
[02:15] <Johto> AMbrose: go to "cd /home/kris2pe/Desktop/" and do "ls -al"
[02:16] <Johto> you people should READ basic linux commands..oh man :I
[02:16] <Johto> all these graphical stuff is doing only harm for new users :(
[02:16] <AMbrose> total 51688
[02:16] <AMbrose> drwxr-xr-x  3 kris2pe kris2pe     4096 2007-08-25 20:24 .
[02:16] <AMbrose> drwxr-xr-x 62 kris2pe kris2pe     4096 2007-08-26 20:03 ..
[02:16] <AMbrose> drwxr-xr-x  3 root    root        4096 2007-08-27 03:02 Backup
[02:17] <Johto> AMbrose: ok, that explains it as you can see !
[02:17] <Johto> AMbrose: the directory is OWNED by ROOT
[02:17] <Johto> AMbrose: only u as ROOT user can modify its content...
[02:17] <Johto> AMbrose: go as root by issuing "sudo -i"
[02:17] <AMbrose> yup
[02:17] <Johto> AMbrose: then as long as you are root (you can see the $ changing to # ) ...
[02:18] <AMbrose> yes
[02:18] <Johto> AMbrose: this would be easy for you if u had read some basic unix/linux consepts :D
[02:18] <Johto> oh well, live and learn :)
[02:18] <AMbrose> I know but I'm windows user!
[02:18] <AMbrose> THat's the problem
[02:18] <Johto> AMbrose: so? dont like to laern new ?
[02:18] <salah> is there any ways to make my one virtual keyboard? I want another version of the arabic keyboard, where for example M is replaced with B
[02:18] <AMbrose> Yes I'm dyslexic
[02:19] <AMbrose> that's the problem
[02:19] <Johto> AMbrose: too bad
[02:19] <Johto> AMbrose: no pain, no gain
[02:19] <AMbrose> Is it that hard just to do that?
[02:19] <BlindSide> learning is pain?
[02:19] <Johto> AMbrose: hah, thats EASY, you dont have any idea, ahhah
[02:19] <AMbrose> Then why don't you just give it to me
[02:20] <Johto> BlindSide: some time it is..you :P
[02:20] <Johto> AMbrose: huh?
[02:20] <AMbrose> The commands for it to work
[02:20] <Johto> AMbrose: what are you blabbing about?
[02:20] <Johto> AMbrose: DUH
[02:20] <AMbrose> You said I need to learn
[02:20] <AMbrose> ???
[02:20] <Johto> sudo -i changes you to ROOT, you dont want to be root all the time !
[02:21] <AMbrose> I know
[02:21] <AMbrose> But I just want to store some file there
[02:21] <jeffferrari> or sudo chown kris2pe:kris2pe backup
[02:21] <AMbrose> specific files
[02:21] <AMbrose> not the entire system
[02:21] <Johto> AMbrose: then either change the direcotry ownership and access to your "normal" username, or make a new direcory while you are NOT ROOT ..simple ?
[02:22] <AMbrose> Um would be If I knew how
[02:22] <Johto> AMbrose: again, these are the basic comamnds and consepts you should, and every new user should read about ...it helps in the long run..grab a book like "linux for newbies" lol
[02:23] <AMbrose> Thanks
[02:23] <AMbrose> that helps

[02:41] <boontoo> Johta how do i check that
[02:41] <saas_> hi. is it customary for a comapny to have two  server administrators ? or is it even possible or safe?
[02:41] <Johto> boontoo: open "home folder" and go to the settings in the window of the filemanager
[02:41] <jeffferrari> don't know much about jfs, but it could be the journal file accounting for the difference
[02:41] <faileas> saas_: it sounds like a good idea IF each knows what the other is doing
[02:41] <Johto> boontoo: edit / prefere..
[02:42] <boabsta> jeffferrari, 26GB journal file is a bit harsh :)
[02:42] <jeffferrari> rofl thought it was the other way round
[02:42] <Ultrabucket> THAT IS SO FUNNY! *falls off terrace*

[02:43] <mon^rch> glscreensaver keeps displaying the same image over and over... what do I do? ...please
[02:43] <Johto> aalib: ah, i see your main motive to have linux is to have beryl stuff, so you can show your friends..ughh...please!
[02:43] <boabsta> heh no du on all directories show 1.6GB usage - the other 26GB is used by something I dont know about

[02:43] <saas_> faileas and if the 2. has only the atsk of administering everything that has to do with java and tomcat?  is it alowable to have that configuration of sysadmins?

[02:47] <Johto> read
[02:48] <Johto> aalib: i cannot help with the ati stuff
[02:48] <Lamego> Egyn, probably the problem is related to the default kernel installed by the server version
[02:48] <Johto> aalib: i dont know shit about about ati drivers in linux..always had nvidia
[02:48] <aalib> urrgh
[02:49] <Johto> aalib: but if i'd had ati, i would go the ubuntuforums, and read the nice guides used by millions...
[02:49] <micken> do you try to use ati + aiglx ?
[02:49] <Johto> micken: aalib is n00b so..yes he wants his "eye candy" ..
[02:49] <micken> yuo have to use xgl to get desktopefects
[02:49] <boontoo> aalib: what is your problem? i tried ubuntu on an ati before i sold it
[02:49] <aalib> umm
[02:50] <aalib> dont have the driver
[02:50] <Johto> aalib: i just think aalib is lazy and dont want to read ..he likes his stuff spoon fed? :D
[02:50] <recon> a shame... aalib is a good library, too.
[02:50] <aalib> nayh
[02:50] <micken> google for ati xgl beryl
[02:50] <aalib> i jst cudnt find help
[02:50] <Johto> recon: AHAHAH
[02:50] <boontoo> i think it was an accomplishment for me to get eyecandy on an onboard graphics integrated thats drivers wont support linux
[02:50] <aalib> enuf help to completely solve
[02:50] <Johto> recon: and adlib was the first soundcard by creative :D
[02:50] <micken> there is numerous tutorials for how you install and configure ati + xgl
[02:51] <micken> including installing the driver
[02:51] <boontoo> ati + xgl + ubuntu works fine
[02:51] <Johto> aalib: yes, go to the damn forums and REAAD READ READ
[02:51] <boontoo> unless you have under radeon 9600
[02:51] <boontoo> then your screwed
[02:51] <aalib> i have radeaon x1300
[02:51] <Johto> he has 1300 ..
[02:51] <boontoo> anyway ati release linux drivers
[02:51] <boontoo> check on the ati website for linux drivers i think its an rpm
[02:51] <aalib> i cant find them
[02:51] <Johto> aalib: so its only you, go and relax, start from scratch if u need to, and follow the right guides
[02:51] <aalib> i tried searching everytihng
[02:52] <boontoo> lol

[03:18] <super61> hello is there any way i can boot a iso from my thumb drive?
[03:19] <mcp_> I have an USB-Mouse and use lomoco on bootup to set it to 800 dpi. But sometimes it gets reset to its default resolution. What could the reason therefore be?
[03:20] <gnuskool> super61, if you have set bios to boot from usb, and its a bootable iso, it'll be possible
[03:20] <super61> well my BIOS doesent haqve that option
[03:20] <super61> or i would do that
[03:21] <rexy_> then you cant boot from it if your bios doesnt support it
[03:21] <thyko> howdy felaz
[03:21] <thyko> how do i get wpa_supplicant to work?
[03:21] <rexy_> !wpa
[03:21] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[03:21] <Cuzz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35110/ Please
[03:22] <rexy_> super61: your bios either supports booting from usb or it doesnt.
[03:22] <rexy_> you can try to boot using floppy's and then mount a usb drive yes
[03:22] <IdleOne> super61: you can use virtualbox also see !virtualbox

[03:25] <GNine> send it to me

[03:26] <iblicf> hi,,anyboday knows how to use putty(winxp) to transform files ?
[03:26] <super61> i was going to try and get the MS
[03:26] <Sivik> iblicf, use the ftp function
[03:26] <mypapit> iblicf,  what do you mean by transform?
[03:26] <ubuntu> iblicf : if you mean transfer use winscp ;-)
[03:26] <super61> DOS from my floopy to boot and trick the BIOS to think my USB is my FLOOPY
[03:26] <rexy_> transfer ^^
[03:26] <Sivik> i so just though u said transfer
[03:26] <iblicf> Sivik: must have one ftp client ?
[03:26] <GNine> why is talkin about compiz taboo in this channel
[03:27] <zombie_monkey> I have Driver_Files_NDIS 5 and Driver_Files_NDIS 5_64, the second is for 64-bit processors?
[03:27] <Sivik> iblicf, putty makes a ftp program or you can use an opensource ftp program
[03:27] <rexy_> super61: err that wont work, Dos and bios are not really related
[03:27] <iblicf> mypapit:  to copy a file to remote host or download the file
[03:27] <IdleOne> GNine: it isnt just that we have a dedicated channel for it #ubuntu-effects
[03:27] <rexy_> burn the iso and use a cd if you can or lookup the alternative ways to install
[03:27] <iblicf> Sivik: just can not use scp ?
[03:27] <mypapit> iblicf,  ah ic.. you can use sftp or winscp
[03:27] <Sivik> scp should work
[03:27] <GNine> cmon IdleOne , thats a dead channel
[03:28] <Sivik> iblicf, or filezilla
[03:28] <super61> rexy_: hmm ok
[03:28] <Pricey> GNine, that doesn't make a difference.
[03:28] <super61> ill find a way
[03:28] <IdleOne> GNine: try #compiz or #beryl
[03:28] <Pricey> GNine, #ubuntu-effects for compositing talk. EOD
[03:28] <henkdetank> i need some help
[03:28] <ubuntu> iblicf : winscp.sf.net transfer over ssh or use filezilla.sf.net for ftp as Sivik said ;-)
[03:28] <rexy_> !ask | henkdetank
[03:28] <ubotu> henkdetank: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:28] <GNine> oh yes it does.. its still linux programming.. maybe the politics should change about it

[03:29] <henkdetank> so i can access it from my wondows machine
[03:29] <henkdetank> windows*
[03:29] <fragalot> super61: er, you don't.
[03:29] <rexy_> !enter | henkdetank
[03:29] <henkdetank> but every time i create a folder
[03:29] <ubotu> henkdetank: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:29] <super61> Okey ~
[03:29] <IdleOne> GNine: this is Ubuntu support. there are already 3 releases being supported in this channel alone we can not start supporting every single feature added to ubuntu in here
[03:29] <Pricey> !alternate | super61
[03:29] <ubotu> super61: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[03:29] <fragalot> super61: you can, however use a 50MB install
[03:30] <henkdetank> the permissions are not right
[03:30] <henkdetank> ok, sorry
[03:30] <boabsta> super61, if you mean 256MB RAM then you need to get more RAM
[03:30] <Pricey> super61, you're talking about RAM right? (fragalot)
[03:30] <Pricey> boabsta, no you don't
[03:30] <Sivik> ok, i'm trying to create a symlink with ln -s because i need a users home folder to point to /var/www, how do i do this, the symlink i created isn't correct
[03:30] <Pricey> boabsta, use the alternate install cd
[03:30] <GNine> right... its not like everybody asks YOU bout it..
[03:30] <fragalot> ah, ram
[03:30] <fragalot> :p
[03:30] <GNine> heh

[03:30] <fragalot> Pricey: I thought he meant space ;)
[03:30] <rexy_> henkdetank, so you are sharing files on your local network using apache and the files are in the www directory, or are you trying to export the www directory on your local network
[03:30] <henkdetank> how can i make sure that the apache user is the same as the samba user :S
[03:30] <Pricey> fragalot, confused me for a minute too :)
[03:30] <fragalot> Pricey: =D
[03:30] <henkdetank> no, i got that working fine
[03:30] <GNine> !root | Pricey
[03:30] <super61> Pricey: yes my laptop is old so i cant get new ram or i would have already
[03:30] <boabsta> Pricey, yeah but I presume he means running a "heavy" desktop - obviously he can run icewm or something lighter on 128MB
[03:30] <ubotu> Pricey: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[03:31] <rexy_> henkdetank: define your problem then specifically, is it apache or samba that is the problem
[03:31] <Lamego> Sivik, whare are you trying to achieve ? is not very usual to have links from users to /var/www
[03:31] <Pricey> super61, then use the alternate install cd, I would recommend using a lighter desktop than gnome though
[03:31] <Sivik> lamego, i need them to be able to login via ftp and go straight to that folder
[03:31] <henkdetank> the problem is when i create a folder from my windows machine, for use with a cms system, the cms in the browser tells me it doesnt have write acces for that folder
[03:32] <super61> Pricey: i am but i cant burn i dont have a big pc only  slim drive
[03:32] <Lamego> Sivik, there are ftp servers which allow to setup the users ftp home dir, which does not need to match their system home dir
[03:32] <boabsta> Sivik, make sure you use the FULL paths when creating a symlink
[03:32] <henkdetank> and i would like that to be automatically correct
[03:32] <super61> like thge compaq deskpro
[03:32] <Sivik> Lamego, ok, how do i go about doing all of this via cli
[03:32] <Lamego> anyway, you just need to: ln -s source destination
[03:32] <rexy_> henkdetank: create a folder using a webabpp on apache ? That is because the apache server runs in low-priviledged mode and probably cant write
[03:33] <Lamego> but I would do it on the server config side ;)
[03:33] <Sivik> Lamego, thats what i did but now it has the users home folder in the /var/www
[03:33] <henkdetank> yes
[03:33] <henkdetank> can i change that safely?
[03:33] <Lamego> Sivik, you used the command the way around ;)
[03:33] <Lamego> its a common mistake with "ln"
[03:33] <rexy_> henkdetank: is it connected to the internet is it connected locally?
[03:33] <pawan> hi
[03:33] <Sivik> Lamego, so i did it bass awards?
[03:33] <Sivik> aka backwards
[03:33] <henkdetank> i mean, my webhoster has this standard, when i upload with ftp, php has the rights to change chmod for files and folders
[03:34] <henkdetank> both internet and locally
[03:34] <attunix> OpenOffice is giving me text in the toolbars instead of buttons with pictures. How do I get the little icons back?
[03:34] <boabsta> Sivik, ln [OPTION] ... [-T]  TARGET LINK_NAME
[03:34] <GNine> did u just try to flood me Pricey ?  lol   try harder
[03:34] <boabsta> Sivik, make sure you enter the full paths though
[03:34] <Sivik> ok
[03:34] <Sivik> cause apparently i didn't do it the correct way the first time
[03:34] <rexy_> henkdetank: bit offtopic for ubuntu i suppose, but you can achieve such a setup and secure it in different ways, depending on what you need and security requirements
[03:34] <Johto> Sivik: you cannot do a symlink if the real direcoty exist already same name
[03:35] <Sivik> Johto: ok, then how do i accomplish what i wish
[03:35] <Johto> Sivik: there was a another command and way to "hardlink" somewho one direcotry to a real directory ..dont remember ..was somehting to do with mount
[03:35] <henkdetank> i thought it was a ubuntu permissions problem
[03:35] <pawan> any newscreensaver for ubuntu
[03:35] <henkdetank> besides i never worked with ubuntu before, i have no idea how to change permissions etc
[03:36] <rexy_> henkdetank: if your box is not connected and does not run in shared mode the most simple approach is to chmod 777 on the www dir, that should allow any webapp to do anything in that directory. If it is connceted to the internet that is a really bad idea
[03:36] <Johto> Sivik: normally you would just do "ln -s /var/www /home/blaah" ..but if there already is a REAL direcotry /home/blaah it wont work !
[03:36] <JenZke> hi all, anyone up for a partition related question
[03:36] <henkdetank> yes rexy_
[03:36] <Sivik> Johto, yeah
[03:36] <henkdetank> i wouldn't want to do that
[03:36] <troythetechguy> Hi.  I'm trying to move some video from my Canon camcorder to my PC.  I tried Kino, but it continued to freeze on me, so I captured the video under Windows.  However, when I play back the video in Ubuntu, the sound is garbled and does not match the frames.  Any ideas?
[03:36] <rexy_> henkdetank: is it connected to the internet publicly? or is it on an internal lan
[03:36] <henkdetank> since i want to also allow acces from the internet
[03:37] <henkdetank> it is publicly
[03:37] <Pricey> GNine, I definitely didn't! :O
[03:37] <henkdetank> i just don't know if this is a setting for apache or ubuntu
[03:37] <pawan> various ubuntu distros
[03:37] <Dr_Link> I'll go ahead and state my problem.
[03:37] <GNine> k
[03:37] <cuzzi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35112/ Please! Im connected to the internet but unable to use the connection
[03:38] <rexy_> henkdetank: it's not specific for ubuntu, and in general securing systems is complicated and techincal and best not left to novice users, You are probably better of using your webhosters service
[03:38] <rexy_> but i cant give you a specific fix for how to secure the box and allow modification without some more specifics
[03:38] <henkdetank> what would u like to know?
[03:38] <Dr_Link> I JUST CAN'T GET THESE DARN ISO CDS TO WORK. I installed Ubuntu with a LiveCD. Now I want to install other Linuxes such as Fedora Core 7, which I have on disk, but when I boot from the CD, it seems to want to load GRUB and lead directly into Ubuntu.
[03:38] <pawan> hi
[03:39] <Pricey> Dr_Link, change your bios to boot from cd before hard drive
[03:39] <Dr_Link> ...
[03:39] <Dr_Link> so go to BIOS setup on startup?
[03:39] <rexy_> henkdetank: you are running a simple lam/php system which runs just one domain?
[03:39] <Pricey> Dr_Link, yes
[03:39] <boabsta> henkdetank, check out http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1694 for startes - there's plenty more info on that site
[03:39] <rexy_> and you have an application that needs to be able to write and create files
[03:39] <Dr_Link> Can this be unset or just set for that one startup?
[03:40] <Pricey> Dr_Link, you can unset it once you've installed yet
[03:40] <henkdetank> it doesnt even run a domain; only static ip
[03:40] <Pricey> *yes
[03:40] <Sivik> how do i remove a symlink?
[03:40] <rexy_> henkdetank: same deal
[03:40] <henkdetank> yes
[03:40] <boabsta> Sivik, rm same as files
[03:40] <henkdetank> i have a php app that needs to create files
[03:40] <Dr_Link> :D
[03:40] <Dr_Link> Thanks.
[03:40] <henkdetank> ur welcome
[03:40] <Sivik> rm -s?
[03:40] <henkdetank> ;)
[03:40] <Johto> Sivik: look up mount and the --bind command usage
[03:40] <rexy_> assuming your cms is secure allowing the nobdy process to write in particular area's would work, best combined with apparmor
[03:41] <Johto> Sivik: but be carefull with it :)
[03:41] <Sivik> lol
[03:41] <rexy_> if your cms isnt very secure consider using htacces and ip filtering
[03:41] <henkdetank> yes
[03:41] <Johto> Sivik: One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
[03:41] <Johto>        mount --bind olddir newdir
[03:41] <henkdetank> the cms is drupal by the way
[03:41] <rexy_> ubuntu has a page on hardening ubuntu as well, you probably want to look into that as well
[03:41] <cuzzi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35112/ Please! Im connected to the internet but unable to use the connection
[03:41] <henkdetank> hardening?
[03:41] <boabsta> Sivik, just rm <symlink> does the trick?
[03:42] <rexy_> henkdetank: securing it
[03:42] <henkdetank> ok
[03:42] <Sivik> but then it was asking for to remove a whole bunch of stuff and thats not what i wnted
[03:42] <rexy_> securing a webservice is more then installing apache and using a password system in your wepapp
[03:42] <Dr_Link> Alright, I'm in setup
[03:42] <henkdetank> how i wish it was as simple as that :)
[03:43] <rexy_> just setting permissions in any case will allow your cms to work, also i'm sure druple has some pointers on what permissions it need
[03:43] <rexy_> as for securing i'd suggest starting with the ubuntu pages and read up on how to harden apache/php/linux in general
[03:43] <Trae> Anyone in here successfully duel boot their Dell Ubuntu box with Linux/Windows ?
[03:43] <Sivik> boabsta, the problem with that for some reason, its trying to delete the folder rather than the symlink
[03:43] <rexy_> Also i dont know how secure the default php installation on ubuntu is, you might want to check the settings there too
[03:44] <henkdetank> yes, but that takes away the whole purpose of a dedicated server for me; to make it faster for me to work, but if i have to change permissions for every fart that would be such a waste of time
[03:44] <rexy_> no henkdetank it doesnt work like that
[03:44] <henkdetank> :)
[03:44] <super61> hay can you burn a cd in live cd on linux?
[03:45] <henkdetank> ok, i will read up on hardening
[03:45] <boabsta> Sivik, weird, you've possibly made a hardlink - i just made a quick symlink to a file i dont care about then deleted the symlink using rm and the file that the symlink pointed to still exists
[03:45] <Dr_Link> ...
[03:45] <Pricey> super61, an .iso file?
[03:45] <Dr_Link> So my disks ARE corrupt.
[03:45] <boabsta> Sivik, (started to doubt myself lol)
[03:45] <super61> Pricey: yes i iso
[03:45] <henkdetank> i have been searching this on google for hours but cant find anything helpful :(
[03:45] <Sivik> boabsta, lol
[03:45] <Dr_Link> none of the things I burn work anymore. ACK.
[03:45] <Pricey> super61, well that, or burning a video.. or other files?
[03:45] <henkdetank> but thanks rexy_
[03:45] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory: "In the GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems, it is common to use a whole partition of a hard disk for swapping." www.geocities.com/keithparris/decus_presentations/su2002_linux_internals.ppt: "Despite terminology like swap partition, Linux actually does only paging, not swapping." Both statements contradict. Which one is correct?
[03:45] <rexy_> henkdetank: google for securing lamp
[03:45] <Sivik> boabsta, ln -s /home/nex1391/ /var/www/
[03:45] <super61> no
[03:45] <monkeyBox> Hi all. I'm new to ubuntu (coming from gentoo).   When gusty gibbons is releaseed, will it be available via updates, or does one have to re-install?
[03:45] <Sivik> boabsta, thats how i made the symlink to being with
[03:46] <Pricey> super61, because if its a ready iso, then right click it, then select "burn to disc"
[03:46] <super61> just trying to burn the allternative cd onto a cd so i can put it on my lsptop
[03:46] <Sivik> monkeyBox, you can do it via updates but that isn't always the most stable way to do it
[03:46] <petterah> monkeyBox, via updates
[03:46] <rexy_> henkdetank: but there is a reason why people provide just those serviecs as a buisness
[03:46] <boabsta> Sivik, nooo, should be ln -s /home/nex1391/ /var/www/nex1391 or something
[03:46] <pawan> various ubuntu distros
[03:46] <henkdetank> hehee
[03:46] <super61> Pricey: ok
[03:46] <henkdetank> good point
[03:46] <boabsta> Sivik, what does ls -l /var/ say?
[03:46] <bullgard4> monkeyBox: You will be able to easily upgrade from Feisty.
[03:46] <super61> hay can i get linux on a psp?
[03:47] <rexy_> if it's just a simple thing you really should consider using a hoster who takes care of that stuff for you rather then exposing your buisness stuff because of lack of knowledge
[03:47] <cjsstables> need help with screen resolution.  cannot acheive 1920x1200 with intel i810.  I have install 915 resolution and know that xorg.conf is correct since xorgconf works perfect with Debian Lenny and latest i810 driver.  Anyone help here?
[03:47] <henkdetank> well, if it realy is a problem, i will go to an insecure lan without access form the web
[03:47] <monkeyBox> bullgard4:  Sivik says it isn't always the most stable way.. would you agree?
[03:47] <monkeyBox> (ie:  upgrading as opposed to re-install)
[03:47] <rexy_> henkdetank: if it's just used internal security is less of an issue really, just set the permissions as the programs wants and it will work just fine
[03:47] <Sivik> boabsta, http://pastebin.com/m5101d31d
[03:47] <henkdetank> exactly
[03:48] <henkdetank> if all else fails that will be my last resort
[03:48] <henkdetank> thanks so much rexy_
[03:48] <rexy_> well you need to follow the cms installation instructions, it will tell you what you need to chmod
[03:48] <rexy_> err what you need to setup for it to work
[03:48] <bullgard4> monkeyBox: I disagree. In almost all cases I have learned so far, upgrading proved simpler than a complete new installation.
[03:48] <Johto> Sivik: why cant you jsut make a symlink www inside the home dir ?
[03:48] <Johto> Sivik: do this:
[03:48] <boabsta> Sivik, you should be able to do rm /var/www/nex1391 safely - that should remove any files in /home/nex1391
[03:48] <Sivik> Johto, i think thats what i was trying to do and i did it bass ackwards
[03:49] <Johto> Sivik: ok wait
[03:49] <monkeyBox> cool :)
[03:49] <boabsta> Sivik, *shouldnt* remove any files
[03:49] <max> Hey I installed Ubuntu on another computer but now my monitor won't work on it, at all! The monitors all tell me there is no signal even though it's firmly plugged into the back. The computer beeps 3 times when I start it up (Beep, pause, then two quick beeps) I'm not quite sure what to do, I've tried 2 different monitors and they are both giving me the same problem, the keyboard is picking up (the num lock and cap lock lights are flashing w
[03:49] <max> hen it turns on) any ideas?
[03:49] <Sivik> boabsta, hey, it worked that time
[03:49] <Sivik> Johto, thats what i have been trying to do
[03:49] <boabsta> Sivik, cool :)
[03:50] <Johto> Sivik: just wait a sec !
[03:50] <monkeyBox> I have to say, when I switched to ubuntu from gentoo, it feels like a huge burden is lifted. Especially when you can install an application in mere seconds as opposed to waiting for it to compile :-p
[03:50] <Sivik> Johto, ok
[03:50] <BlindSide> hi
[03:50] <rexy_> max your computer has a hardware problem it seems
[03:50] <JenZke> hi all, my hd layout looks like this: http://jenz.be/gparted.png. I want to move the free 6.8Gb so it can be added to sda5. So i need to move sda6 and sda7 to the front (and resize sda6 cauz its too big) but all my partitioningtools (hirensbootcd) complain its a bootable linux partition which can cause problems. I have a dualboot xp (sda1) and feisty. any suggestions?
[03:50] <alexandre> does anyone know how to make radeon 9000 work with directx on wine?
[03:50] <erUSUL> max: the motherboard is tellling you that the vga card is not well plugued in the mainboard iirc
[03:50] <max> rexy_ You mean like the graphics card is done? You think I should try it with a different video card maybe?
[03:50] <monkeyBox> sure I've learned a lot from gentoo, but I'm through w/ tinkering and ready to "get things done" :-)
[03:51] <Johto> Sivik: go inside the user dir and type "ln -s /var/www blaah"
[03:51] <max> erUSUL, So how do I fix it?
[03:51] <rexy_> max check if everything is plugged in properly, and if that fails try another videocard yes
[03:51] <Johto> Sivik: then you have symlink named lbaah that points to /var/www
[03:51] <Sivik> ok
[03:51] <erUSUL> max: open the box and check if the card is well plugged in the pci/agp slot
[03:51] <Bucketface> reinstalled
[03:51] <Sivik> Johto, i called it www
[03:51] <Johto> Sivik: ok
[03:51] <max> rexy_, Yeah we checked like 3 times and then I tried 2 different monitors
[03:52] <Sivik> sweet, now it works correctly
[03:52] <Dr_Link> erm.
[03:52] <rexy_> try a different card then max
[03:52] <max> rexy_, Kk I'm gonna try and find a different card to use.
[03:52] <Dr_Link> NO CDS WORK FOR ME... *tries his Fedora disk*
[03:52] <rexy_> you can find in your motherboard manual what the beeps mean
[03:52] <Johto> Sivik: you can see ls -l that its symlink, and by using ln -s it creates softlink and you can safely remove the link not deletetng the target
[03:52] <rexy_> as the other guy said, likely the vga card is not properly seated in the expansion slot and/or is broken
[03:52] <Johto> Sivik: you should make sure the symlink and target folder and files have right permisisons for user to acces
[03:53] <JenZke> Can noboddy help me with my partition question? :(
[03:54] <Dr_Link> Watcha need to know?
[03:54] <Trae> http://occy.net/tmp/screenshot-08262007.png  I want to put windows on my machine (This is one of the Dell Ubuntu boxes)  -- I want to duel boot Linux with Ubuntu  Can anyone help?
[03:54] <JenZke> hi all, my hd layout looks like this: http://jenz.be/gparted.png. I want to move the free 6.8Gb so it can be added to sda5. So i need to move sda6 and sda7 to the front (and resize sda6 cauz its too big) but all my partitioningtools (hirensbootcd) complain its a bootable linux partition which can cause problems. I have a dualboot xp (sda1) and feisty. any suggestions?
[03:54] <Trae> jenda, lol
[03:54] <Trae> jenda, mt
[03:54] <Trae> JenZke, lol ;)
[03:54] <JenZke> trae, linux and ubuntu?
[03:54] <JenZke> or do u mean linux + xp
[03:55] <JenZke> why lol Trea :)
[03:55] <rexy_> !dual
[03:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:55] <Trae> JenZke, hha yeah you are right Lin with Win
[03:55] <JenZke> super easy, install xp
[03:55] <Trae> JenZke, I was lauhing cuase we asked kinda the same question
[03:55] <JenZke> then boot feisty cd-rom, choose install
[03:55] <JenZke> its supereasy nowadays
[03:56] <Dr_Link> I'd recommend using a LiveCD for partitioning like that. It has the GNOME partition tool. I just made a 10gig FAT32 partition. Just so I could share some files between each OS.
[03:56] <Sivik> Johto, thanks
[03:56] <rexy_> Trae: you can just follow the installation process to setup a dual boot with linux and xp
[03:56] <Dr_Link> Wow, you can make an NTFS partition. (!!!)
[03:56] <Bucketface> It's pretty easy
[03:56] <Bucketface> I just did it.
[03:56] <rexy_> might have to defragment the windows setup first if you dont have free space
[03:56] <Trae> rexy_, take a look at that screenshot: http://occy.net/tmp/screenshot-08262007.png
[03:56] <Obelix> Indeed a piece of cake
[03:56] <Trae> rexy_, Dell doesn't provide a simple partition scheme
[03:56] <foxray> anyone know if its possible to convert from ubuntu to xubuntu?
[03:56] <Dr_Link> People are too scared to use the free CD sending technique.
[03:56] <JenZke> rexy, tnx but i get these warnings : http://jenz.be/acronis.png
[03:56] <ari_stress> hello, my country mirror is broken, how do i change the sources.list?
[03:57] <Bucketface> oh snap
[03:57] <natb_> hey
[03:57] <Bucketface> that's alot of partitions trae
[03:57] <Trae> Bucketface, that's what Dell ships by default
[03:57] <Bucketface> I heart linux
[03:57] <natb_> im wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction
[03:57] <Sivik> ari_stress, just remove any country code and leave it without a country code, that way it would look for a good one, hopefully
[03:57] <rexy_> Trae: install on sda6 the big ext3 partition
[03:57] <Bucketface> Really?
[03:58] <Sivik> natb_, don't ask to ask a question, just ask it
[03:58] <Bucketface> I have a dell too, I reformatted though
[03:58] <freepenguin> hello, could somebody tell how to send message to all on-line contatcs with AMSN ?
[03:58] <natb_> ok, well i have just installed the e16 WM
[03:58] <Trae> rexy_, do you realize what you just suggested????
[03:58] <natb_> and it refuses to connect to the net
[03:58] <ari_stress> Sivik: thanks :)
[03:58] <natb_> which is why im back in gnome again
[03:58] <Trae> rexy_, You don't need to offer advice to people.  You just suggested I wipe out my /
[03:58] <natb_> im assuming this is cos the keyring daemon hasnt started ?
[03:58] <rexy_> heu didnt you just ask how to install there?
[03:58] <Sivik> natb_, i don't think e16 has anything to do with connecting to the internet, i have never had a problem doing so myself
[03:58] <natb_> maybe.. ? can anyone explain how to get me on the net in e16
[03:59] <natb_> well each time i boot into gnome
[03:59] <JenZke> lolz i think rexy is mixing trae and my questions up :)
[03:59] <natb_> i get the keyring dialog asking for a pw
[03:59] <rexy_> seems so
[03:59] <natb_> but for sure dont get that in e16
[03:59] <Sivik> natb_, try the e help channel
[03:59] <JenZke> sorry rexy
[03:59] <troythetechguy> When I plug my camcorder into my PC, Ubuntu puts it in the "disk" group (which I'm not a member), rather than the video group (which I am a member).  Any ideas why this id doing this?
[03:59] <Trae> rexy_, be careful man.... I even did a df -h  in the screenshot
[03:59] <JenZke> i think i'm gonna experiment
[03:59] <aalib> lolx
[03:59] <rexy_> Trae what is your problem then?
[03:59] <stefg> Trae: is this the state in which the System came? I mean did you already change teh partition layout?
[03:59] <Trae> rexy_, You don't want to accidently have someone nuke their / :)
[03:59] <Sivik> i'm actually funning e17 on the laptop sitting here at my desk and i didn't have to do anything special to get connected to the net
[04:00] <aalib> where is jujjjjhe
[04:00] <Sivik> natb_, try #e for some help
[04:00] <aalib> hey anyone??
[04:00] <Trae> stefg, again.... the state of the system in the screenshot is EXACTLY how Dell ships their Ubuntu machines
[04:00] <Trae> heh
[04:00] <Sivik> aalib, what is your problem?
[04:00] <Trae> stefg, http://occy.net/tmp/screenshot-08262007.png
[04:00] <natb_> sivik: noone home in #help
[04:00] <freepenguin> could somebody tell how to send message to all on-line contatcs with AMSN ?
[04:00] <ari_stress> JenZke: you can format the partition you want to "merge" into lvm
[04:00] <ari_stress> i've done it before
[04:00] <Sivik> natb_, try joining #E
[04:00] <rexy_> Trae i guess recovery partitions, /boot swap and a big linux partition
[04:00] <aalib> i got a problem with my ubuntu
[04:00] <aalib> im a newbie..
[04:00] <natb_> that is /j #e ?
[04:01] <Trae> I have Linux on it now... I simply want to have Windows on the same box and duel boot.  I do NOT want my Linux setup to be tinkered with outside of just maybe making the partition smaller for space for Windoiws
[04:01] <Sivik> aalib, ok, whats the question, don't ask to ask a question cause you already asked a question
[04:01] <Sivik> natb_, i guess, not sure of the program your using
[04:01] <aalib> umm..
[04:01] <Trae> heh
[04:01] <aalib> i got a problem with my ati graphics card..
[04:01] <natb_> let me try to explain if i may
[04:01] <Trae> triple my money back if I don't like the advice in here. :)
[04:01] <aalib> desktop effect is not working
[04:01] <stefg> Trae: right, that's what i wanted to know. The mishap you're facing is that it's quite manadatory to install Win to a primary partition, but there's none left. So you have to alter the layout away fom the default state
[04:01] <natb_> i jsut installed e16 from a package i found somewhere with alien
[04:01] <Sivik> aalib, what kind os issue
[04:01] <natb_> and it booted in fine, very nice it is too
[04:01] <Sivik> of*
[04:01] <natb_> but it just hasnt connected to my wireless
[04:02] <Trae> stefg, yah.... that's what I'm thinking.  i'm not linux nub... I've been running it exclusivly since 96'
[04:02] <aalib> ubuntu
[04:02] <Dr_Link> I have a problem with my graphics card.
[04:02] <Trae> stefg, I just never use windows
[04:02] <Trae> stefg, lol
[04:02] <Sivik> aalib: that narrows it down
[04:02] <aalib> Sivik,
[04:02] <rexy_> aalib: what ati card do you have, they arent very well supported for linux by ati
[04:02] <Trae> stefg, hence I don't know mucha bout parted and stuff
[04:02] <natb_> and when i went to keyring manager, in e16 - as when im in gnome, the keyring thing pops uop askign for pw before connecting the the router)
[04:02] <aalib> ati redeon x1300
[04:02] <natb_> it appears that the keyring daemon isnt running
[04:02] <aalib> i want all beryl n those in my ubutun!!
[04:02] <natb_> wondering how one goes about adding things to the 'startup' in e16
[04:02] <aalib> but it aint working right
[04:02] <rexy_> !ati | aalib
[04:03] <ubotu> aalib: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:03] <Sivik> natb_, this isn't the e help channel, ask in the channel that i sent u to
[04:03] <Trae> stefg, seems like I need to resize sda6
[04:03] <Trae> stefg, and with the extra space make a new partition for Windows to go on
[04:03] <Dr_Link> Whenever I try to enable 3D on my NVDIA card, it decides to tell me to come back later when it's enabled after a restart. (WTF? I just used that "Enable Driver" button on the Desktop Effects error window!)
[04:03] <stefg> Trae: Need win for a 'wintendo' ? Otherwise i'd just use vmware and do a virtual machine
[04:03] <rexy_> you need to follow that howto to get acceleration working, which you need for the grafic effects
[04:03] <zombie_monkey> i installed newer versions of alsa and ndsiwrapper manually, will that be a problem when i install a newer kernel?
[04:03] <aalib> will it work for sure?
[04:03] <Trae> stefg, yah... I want to *sigh* play WoW on this machine
[04:03] <aalib> i already tried lots ways installing..
[04:03] <Sivik> zombie_monkey, what kind of stuff will u be running with ndiswrapper?
[04:03] <stefg> Trae: Wow runs on wine :-)
[04:04] <zombie_monkey> wireless drivers
[04:04] <zombie_monkey> Sivik:
[04:04] <stefg> !wowo
[04:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wowo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:04] <Sivik> zombie_monkey, what kind?
[04:04] <stefg> !wow
[04:04] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[04:04] <Trae> stefg, wine.... *shiver*
[04:04] <Sivik> stefg: it also works on cedega
[04:04] <rexy_> zombie you  probably havee to reinstall them when you install a newer kernel yes
[04:04] <zombie_monkey> Sivik: for atheros minipcis
[04:04] <Sivik> zombie_monkey, not sure about that one, i was going to help if it was broadcom
[04:05] <aalib> ubotu,
[04:05] <aalib> ur link doesnt work
[04:05] <stefg> Trae: it's really well supported... consider what's more pain? Wow on wine, or having to backup, resize and fstab-edit a whole install
[04:05] <rexy_> aalib: i'm not sure, the 1300 is in the list of supported ati cards i think, but you might want to check to make sure
[04:05] <misc--> hi. Is it possible to install grub on a hard disk that's partition type is 'linux raid autodetect' and then the root partition is an LVM?
[04:05] <Johto> aalib: ubotu is a BOT, not real human
[04:06] <aalib> haha
[04:06] <aalib> johto..
[04:06] <aalib> it didnt work
[04:06] <aalib> my ati..
[04:06] <Johto> aalib: can i ask how old are you? :D
[04:07] <aalib> 17 :P
[04:07] <Trae> stefg, heh
[04:07] <Johto> aalib: because your attention span seems short :)
[04:07] <aalib> well..
[04:07] <rexy_> misc--: grub ussually goes on the MBR, outside of partitions, other then that i dont know how grub interacts with raid disks or lvm
[04:07] <aalib> it can happen
[04:07] <Trae> does anyone here play WoW on Wine?
[04:07] <Trae> can you play it full screen?
[04:08] <rexy_> It works fine Trae
[04:08] <aalib> johto...
[04:08] <zilenCe> hello! is it ok to remove ppp and pcmcia packages?
[04:08] <Johto> aalib: you say you have read MANY guides, maybe thats the problem, you have made a mess ?
[04:08] <zilenCe> because I'm on a desktop behind a router and really don't need those packages
[04:08] <misc--> rexy_: right ok thanks. Just that I urgently need to do a restore of grub and am hoping that this will work! (waiting for someone to get the disks together so I can guide him through it)
[04:08] <Trae> rexy_, do you play?  (What's your highest level char?)
[04:08] <stefg> Trae: whatever... you'd have to turn sda3 (/boot as it seems) into logical, that means shifting all other logical partitions one number up .. :-(. Then you have sda 3 as a primary for installing windows. Ah... and you need to hide sda and sda2 from win, so you won't end up having windows on E:
[04:08] <rexy_> zilenCe: you can if you dont need them, but their might be other programs that depend on them, so you can just leave them, they dont do anything but take up some space really
[04:08] <zilenCe> but when I want to remove them with apt it wants to remove ubuntu-minimal, ubuntu-base and ubuntu-standard .. they seem to me like dummy packages, but I'm not sure if I should proceed
[04:08] <aalib> yes
[04:09] <Trae> stefg, fun
[04:09] <rexy_> Trae: i dont play online singleplayer games, heh, but it's known to work well
[04:09] <rk013> .
[04:09] <Johto> aalib: i would suggest to do a fresh install and understand what you do and make notes, first thing you should do is find "current" ati guide for ubuntu about beryl /compiz fusion, understand what it NEEDS ..dont start messing right away...thats only thing i can help you ok ?
[04:09] <zilenCe> yeah but I want to remove them from startup, but it doesn't work through bum
[04:09] <stefg> trae... PITA... amajor one. use wine and be a a good linux citizen :-)
[04:09] <Trae> stefg, lol
[04:09] <Johto> aalib: YOU need to read and learn ur self
[04:09] <rexy_> zilenCE they are meta packages, they install a bunch of other packages instead
[04:10] <rk013> lawl
[04:10] <inet_dude> In feisty, do i have to reinstall any drivers and stuff if I am compiling a custom kernel?
[04:10] <rexy_> inet_dude: the drivers are in the kernel you compile, you just have to make sure you enable them
[04:10] <aalib> aha..
[04:10] <rexy_> inet_dude: but there is really no need to compile your own kernel
[04:10] <aalib> ok...!!!
[04:10] <aalib> i will do my best ...
[04:10] <aalib> b bak on next weekend
[04:11] <HyperCity> when i type glxinfo if i have a PCIe card should state PCIe or just PCI ?
[04:12] <Johto> inet_dude: last time i compiled my own kernel, couple years ago, modules was compiled and installed with commands "make modules" and "make modules install"
[04:12] <inet_dude> rexy_: I do need to. I need some adsl modem driver to be installed. It requires that I get the kernel source and boot from the kernel.  and i am not sure whether I should use the ueagle driver provided in the kernel
[04:12] <Johto> inet_dude: i bet the way kernel is compiled nowadays is easier...
[04:13] <natb_> how do i go about changing the WM in gnome - to e16 for instance
[04:13] <Johto> dont even know what's the current way to compile and install kernel..in ubuntu..i bet there are guides
[04:13] <rexy_> inet_dude: i dont know the particulars for installing that driver, but you can probably get away with just compiling the specific driver if you really need to and install it in the current kernel. Did you search the ubuntu forums for your particular device?
[04:13] <rexy_> !kernel
[04:13] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:13] <rexy_> there always are guides :D
[04:13] <Johto> rexy_: yes, follow the bread crums
[04:13] <Johto> :o
[04:14] <zombie_monkey> WOHOO! I have a wlan0
[04:14] <Johto> zombie_monkey: nice, give me some money :D
[04:14] <stefg> natb_: you don't change the wm /in/ gnome... gnome is a wm. you install e16 and get choose the session before loging in from GDM
[04:14] <Johto> lol
[04:15] <natb_> hi stefg, well im having probs getting on the net in e16, was just in #e they said i can use e16 as the the gnome wm
[04:15] <HyperCity> when i type glxinfo if i have a PCIe card should state PCIe or just PCI ?
[04:15] <cjae_> whats the next best thing to google
[04:15] <Johto> natb_: no you understand wrong
[04:15] <Johto> natb_: those both are "window managers"
[04:15] <natb_> i expect i do , im a newb
[04:16] <Johto> natb_: "desktop managers" ..you choose wich to use before, in the gdm step
[04:16] <rexy_> HyperCity: not sure what it will say,but ubuntu will use it properly anyway
[04:16] <natb_> all i want to do is get on the net in e16, gnome seems to use a kkeyring thing to get me on
[04:16] <inet_dude> rexy_: are you saying i can compile the modules from the kernel headers or something?
[04:16] <natb_> but clearly i may be confused
[04:16] <Johto> natb_: huh, i dont see how any gnome or e16 can interfare with your "net" ..
[04:16] <rexy_> inet_dude: that should work for some modules afaik yes
[04:16] <cjae_> anyone
[04:16] <natb_> once ive got the net working on there, i wont have any probs
[04:17] <Johto> natb_: your "net" is already working before you even are in Graphical mode..so ...
[04:17] <stefg> natb_: oh, i see.. so strictly speaking you want to replace metacity with e16's window manager. Hmmm.... that involves editing the gnome session scripts. Have a backup before you start messing with that
[04:17] <Geek_> hmm
[04:17] <rexy_> natb_: it is unlikely that internet problems are related to what particular window manageer you use
[04:17] <HazTheSpaz> Can anyone help me install Screenlets?
[04:17] <natb_> stefg, johto: i imagine there is just somethign that needs to go in the 'startup' ?
[04:17] <natb_> for sure, rexy..
[04:17] <natb_> ubt it just doesnt do it by default
[04:18] <blix> hi folks
[04:18] <natb_> and i couldnt work out what to do
[04:18] <blix> I have a litle issue with partitions
[04:18] <Geek_> i'm following this howto which suggests installing the kernel for gutsy on feisty in order to get a ralink network adaptor working. if it does, can i simply apt-get remove the old kernel?
[04:18] <stefg> natb_: it's not that simple
[04:18] <natb_> theres a surprise :)
[04:18] <Johto> natb_: yes, i recommend you to read more to "figure" how things are stack up..command line --> gdm login screen session-> desktop manager -> wndow manager ... would be easier if youd had "bigger" picture :)
[04:18] <blix> I have my whole hard drive formated to ext3...I need to install Windows ...
[04:19] <Cuzz> Hi, im using pppoe-start to connect. ut im unable to use the connection when im connected. Any help ?
[04:19] <blix> I've got QTparted in stalled
[04:19] <blix> but it keeps telling me there are no drives
[04:19] <natb_> johto: i get that the wm just sits on top of everythingn
[04:19] <blix> I need to be root
[04:19] <natb_> and the apps are independant, pretty much of the wm
[04:19] <blix> how do I log in as root?
[04:19] <Johto> natb_: usually gnome, kde, and other like enlightment is chosen in the GDM part(the graphical login screen) ...
[04:19] <natb_> independent*
[04:19] <Johto> natb_: yes
[04:19] <rexy_> blix qksu
[04:19] <natb_> sure, which is where i picked e16 after installign it
[04:19] <blix> qksu?
[04:19] <blix> what does that do?
[04:19] <rexy_> from a konsole
[04:20] <natb_> and it goes in fine, looks great
[04:20] <rexy_> it allows you to start a program as root
[04:20] <natb_> but just want to know how to connect to my router
[04:20] <Johto> natb_: and?
[04:20] <rexy_> so kgsu <program name>
[04:20] <natb_> so i can get on the net
[04:20] <blix> right...let me try it..
[04:20] <rexy_> wireless connection natb_?
[04:20] <blix> one moment
[04:20] <razvand> Hi! Does anyone know why some versions of Ubuntu don't allow root password recovery using the init=/bin/bash argument for the bootloader? (they give you the 'Give root password for maintenance' message). I know I can do it using a live CD, but I'm wondering why some distributions (such as Debian or Fedora) allow root password recovery without prompting for the root password for maintenance.
[04:20] <natb_> im assuming that gnome has some auto stuff that makes that easy for you
[04:20] <rexy_> err it's gksu, i cant spell
[04:20] <natb_> e16 doesnt appear to have anything similar
[04:21] <natb_> rexy: yes wireless
[04:21] <Johto> natb_: aah, that doesnt have ANYTHING to do with the e16..you just need to figure out what application you used other place, if you used in the gnome, its just a SINGLE app (gnome-application), you need to figure the name to start it, because its not in e16 menus !
[04:21] <blix> thanks in a million rexy
[04:21] <rexy_> razvand: add single in grub
[04:21] <blix> I was going to say.. qksu...was not being recognisd!
[04:21] <blix> thanks..rex
[04:21] <blix> let's see what I can do now..I'll be back.
[04:21] <natb_> yes that is what i thought, gnome seems to use a kering thing - altho this may just be to do with saving the pw to my router
[04:21] <razvand> rexy_: so adding single _and_ init=/bin/bash should do it?
[04:21] <l3r377> blix: i haven't had windows on a pc in a long time, but i believe it needs to be the first primary and the linux partitions need to be installed afterwards into an extended partition
[04:22] <Johto> natb_: well, i dont use any that kinda programs, i have normal ethernet card..
[04:22] <HyperCity> are there any graphicall benchamrks for linux? something similar to 3dmark?
[04:22] <Cuzz> Please someone, my internet was working fine, but after a reboot it doesnt. Why?
[04:22] <blix> l3r377..yeah that was original intention...I had Vista on my new machine...but I screwed up the partition when I installed Linux
[04:22] <rexy_> razvand: as far as i know single will boot you into single user mode as root
[04:22] <l3r377> gears!
[04:22] <rexy_> so no need for the init option then
[04:22] <blix> so I just thought ok...just stick Linux on the whole drive..and deal with windows after
[04:22] <rexy_> HyperCity: glxgears gives some rudimentairy info
[04:23] <Johto> natb_: you could go back to gnome session, then figure out what command launches that app, take notes, and use the same command inside e16, start it in terminal inside e16 for example?
[04:23] <FFForever> when downloading tribe 5 why does my download speed drop to 3/4kb/s for no reason?
[04:23] <natb_> johto: gnome has a little network settings thing that appears in the system tray
[04:23] <Johto> natb_: oh
[04:23] <natb_> johto: yes that is what i figured the process would be
[04:23] <Johto> natb_: aah, yes that was it..hold on i check i
[04:23] <Johto> t
[04:23] <l3r377> FFF: idk, i went 700k all the way through all 3 versions
[04:23] <rexy_> FFForever: busy mirror, bad wireless connection?
[04:23] <natb_> adding it into the startup for e16
[04:23] <razvand> rexy_: unfortunately that is not always the case; some distros only allow init=/bin/bash (single doesn't work); even worse, some don't even allow init=/bin/bash (like gentoo and some recent versions of ubuntu)
[04:23] <Cuzz> whereis Flannel?
[04:23] <Johto> natb_: i have it disabled cause i dont even need it =)
[04:23] <natb_> :)
[04:24] <rexy_> razvand: depends on how you setup grub i think
[04:24] <FFForever> rexy_, is there another mirror i can use to dl tribe5?
[04:24] <natb_> once im on the net in e16, im happy :)
[04:24] <HazTheSpaz> can anyone help me with the ./configure and makeinstall thing?
[04:24] <rexy_> !compiling
[04:24] <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!)
[04:24] <Johto> natb_: its called "network-manager" ..let me see what syntax it uses to start up
[04:24] <rexy_> nm-applet works
[04:24] <Johto> natb_: inside gnome it starts with the syntax "nm-applet --sm-disable"
[04:24] <razvand> rexy_: it might be so ... I
[04:25] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: ./configure sets up options. if it gives errors you'll need to download packages for the dependancies mentioned or something. make compiles. make install puts things where they should be ;)
[04:25] <natb_> johto : so i should add that into whatever the startup script is in e16
[04:25] <razvand> I've been searching the web for hours ... and couldn't figure it out
[04:25] <Johto> natb_: maybe :)
[04:25] <FFForever> i just downloaded 7.04 (again...) and i had no problems....
[04:25] <Johto> natb_: dont know for sure if it even works ok outside gnome
[04:25] <natb_> wouldnt happen to know what that startup file is called would you
[04:25] <HyperCity> rexy_: on a intel 950gma i get 4056fps and on a nvidia7600gs with 512mb of on board ram i get 4600fps , is that normal? i suspect something about my nvidia that doesn't work properly
[04:25] <Johto> natb_: doesnt hurt to try, try first running that manually inside terminal inside e16
[04:25] <natb_> yes, good idea :)
[04:26] <Johto> natb_: first try manually, then figure whats the way in e16 to start stuff at startup :)
[04:26] <rexy_> HyperCity: i have no idea, did you install the nvidia drivers from the restricted section
[04:26] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_ i know that so far, the only problem is installing it, cuz i have no idea how to do that
[04:26] <HyperCity> rexy_: yes
[04:26] <Johto> natb_: i bet e16 has its own "good" way to launch stuff at startup ..just like gnome has the "session"
[04:26] <mc2ts> can anyone offer some sound card advice to a newbie?
[04:26] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: have you untarred the tarball?
[04:26] <Johto> natb_: can only guess, never used enlightenment
[04:26] <natb_> ok well ill see if i can work out what that is
[04:26] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_: i got this thing called Screenlets and its a tar.gz2 file
[04:26] <stefg> !sound | mc2ts
[04:26] <natb_> its awfully nice johto
[04:26] <ubotu> mc2ts: 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
[04:26] <FFForever> rexy_, so do u know another gutsy goblin mirror? then the official ubuntu tribe 5 download link in the devlopers news letter(s)
[04:27] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_:  untarred a tarball?
[04:27] <Johto> natb_: ok, maybe i will check that out when i'm too bored of tweaking other stuff .
[04:27] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: try running tar zxvf /path/to/file.tar.gz
[04:27] <rexy_> HyperCity: glxgears just does a simple thing, so wouldnt worry to much about the fps it gives out
[04:27] <Johto> natb_: i nowadays like more of usablility over eyecandy :D
[04:27] <Geek_> that should extract it to a dir
[04:27] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: then ./config, and note what it complains about
[04:28] <SliMM> what is this all about: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d4cef8b9d
[04:28] <HyperCity> can someone give me a score on glxgears on a nvidia 7600gs or similar just for a comparison
[04:28] <SliMM> ?

[04:28] <davetarmac> I need to format a hard drive in an USB connected enclosure. What is the easiest way?
[04:28] <rexy_> check the mirrors :P
[04:28] <davetarmac> I tried looking at it in GParted, but it tells me that it is locked
[04:29] <FFForever> rexy_, none of them seem to have tribe 5....
[04:29] <l3r377> gparted worked on mine, make sure you have it unmounted?
[04:29] <rexy_> hmm did you check the tribe dev forum on ubuntuforums.org maybe there is a link/torrent in there
[04:29] <rexy_> HyperCity: my 6600 GT gets 5750 average
[04:30] <blix> so what do I have to unmount?
[04:30] <stefg> davetarmac: you need to unmount it. The simplest way would be just to use the command line and enter 2 or three commands
[04:30] <davetarmac> l3r337: yes - it was still mounted (silly me). Apparently I can't make it ntfs though. Any ideas?
[04:30] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: done?
[04:31] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_: i have no ideo what tar zxvf /path/to/file.tar.gz
[04:31] <blix> I'm trying to either split my primary
[04:31] <arun> Is there a GNOME equivalent to Korganizer?
[04:31] <stefg> davetarmac: why would you want it to be ntfs?
[04:31] <Geek_> ....
[04:31] <blix> or format the whole thing
[04:31] <blix> being ext3 sucks
[04:31] <HyperCity> rexy_: on what screen res?
[04:31] <HazTheSpaz> Here, wait up
[04:31] <davetarmac> stefg: because it'll be going in a windows machine
[04:31] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: its a command. if you don't work that out you REALLY shouldn't be compiling things. also, do you have the build essential package installed?
[04:31] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_:  /home/thomas/Desktop/screenlets-0.0.10.tar.bz2, thats the location
[04:31] <l3r377> hyper, im on a 5900ultra and im pushing 12-18k fps
[04:32] <HazTheSpaz> yes
[04:32] <stefg> davetarmac: so format it with a windows tool. Linux doesn't understand ntfs too well
[04:32] <HazTheSpaz> Geek_: i have that
[04:32] <SliMM> i have some problems with my keyboard
[04:32] <Geek_> HazTheSpaz: so it should be tar (all those letters)  /home/thomas/Desktop/screenlets-0.0.10.tar.bz2
[04:32] <marcotmarcot> Hello, is there a command to know in which encoding a file is?
[04:32] <davetarmac> stefg: is there a way to do it in windows? I thought GParted could handle it
[04:32] <SliMM> several buttons don't work
[04:32] <marcotmarcot> UTF-8 or latin1?
[04:32] <HyperCity> l3r377: there is something wrong with my card
[04:33] <HyperCity> any ideea?
[04:33] <rexy_> HyperCity: 1280x1024, but glxgears doesnt work that way, it just runs a simple 3d rendering as fast as possible. if you want to compare cards run some different timedemos of games and see what they give
[04:33] <l3r377> hyper, i think you just dont have the proper drivers
[04:33] <l3r377> what dist you on?
[04:33] <stefg> davetarmac: indeed windows is able to format drives (and this is required quite often, as i might add). Help with windows is in ##windows
[04:33] <HyperCity> l3r377: ubuntu
[04:34] <Sivik> HyperCity, normally, if the glxgears has your fps above 1k, the drivers are installed correctly
[04:34] <Johto>   
[04:34] <arun> anyone?
[04:34] <davetarmac> stefg: I am familiar with formatting in windows - lord knows i had to do it enough times. Just wondering if there are any tools I can use in linux to sort it
[04:34] <blix> Does anyone know how I can create an additional partition from a primary partition?
[04:34] <Johto> davetarmac: yes, just read up the basics of linux, then u know
[04:35] <stefg> davetarmac: no. ntfs is proprietary. MS doesn't tell the specs, so there's no tools in Linux for that
[04:35] <Johto> davetarmac: its more than just one command, commands depends of your wanted filesystem etc..
[04:35] <alexandre>  does anyone know how to make my ati 9100 igp compatible with directdraw
[04:35] <davetarmac> stefg: ok, thanks. guess I'll have to boot in to Vista then. Thanks for the help
[04:36] <Johto> vista :O
[04:36] <blix> lol
[04:36] <Johto> puke
[04:36] <blix> I just wiped off vista :P

[04:36] <Johto> blix: nice
[04:36] <blix> although I have windows XP

[04:37] <Johto> no windows for me anymore plase, used it from the days of dos + win 3.1
[04:37] <rexy_> alexandre: you need to check if you installed the ati proprietary drivers, and then you can use wine to play games, if your particular game is supported by wine you can check on the wine website
[04:37] <blix> I just need Windows for certain games
[04:37] <zendo> Hi. I have samo program (not in package form) file/directory structure, that I need to put in /usr/local, but since there are a lot directories and files, I would like to have a record of what is copied where in case I decide to remove it. My question is: how can I make some rudimentary deb package out of some directory so I can install it in regular way?
[04:38] <Adnan_> linux = so freaking sweet, non bloated, fast, reliable, no need for reboots when installing/uninstalling progs or drivers, support for package exportation with current settings to send to friends etc freaking pwns so much
[04:38] <bo1> can some1 help me
[04:38] <Johto> i'm tired of seeing the windows being this stack of cards, very poorly done
[04:38] <blix> all my dev, surfing, etc...I'll do in Ubuntu now
[04:38] <stefg> Can we have the windows discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic or anywhere. This is the ubuntu support channel
[04:38] <alexandre> i checked and the game is supported by wine
[04:38] <blix> ok..no more windows!
[04:38] <rexy_> !ask |bo
[04:38] <ubotu> bo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:38] <blix> Ok maybe someone can help me out
[04:38] <Johto> i mean, if you look around, WINDOWS is the ODD BALL, everything else is *nix systems, linux, bsd, solaris, osx, u name it :D
[04:38] <blix> I have an ext3 partition..
[04:39] <Johto> REAL operative systems :D
[04:39] <blix> I need part of the partition to be fat32
[04:39] <Geek_> Johto: i donno, i find the text oriented design of *nix rather quaint.
[04:39] <Adnan_> Johto, you're wrong Windows still accquires 90% of all desktop systems
[04:39] <blix> for windows :-o
[04:39] <Johto> Geek_: have you used OSX?
[04:39] <alexandre> i installed the game and i went perfect but when i start the game i have a message telling me:
[04:39] <alexandre> "Could not initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw"
[04:39] <l3r377> i got sick of windows and consoles, so now i just play games that run through wine >.X
[04:39] <blix> using qtparted right now
[04:39] <Johto> Geek_: have you used MS-DOS ?
[04:39] <Geek_> Johto: when i had no other choice, yes ;)
[04:39] <l3r377> what game alex?
[04:39] <alexandre> ageofempire2
[04:39] <alexandre> on wine
[04:39] <rexy_> blix you can resize a partition, and leave the free space, the windows installation process can use that and partition and format that on it's own
[04:39] <bo1> WHO HERE CAN HELP ME?
[04:39] <stefg> blix:you'll have to split the partition. you can only have one filesystem on a partition
[04:39] <blix> and c&c3 players?
[04:40] <Adnan_> bo1, what's your problem?
[04:40] <rexy_> !ask bo1
[04:40] <Geek_> Johto: certainly. i've also used palm, and have been trying to get be and OS/2 working
[04:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask bo1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:40] <alexandre> im not sure if the drivers are the good one
[04:40] <stefg> !caps | bo1
[04:40] <ubotu> bo1: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:40] <rexy_> !ask |bo1
[04:40] <ubotu> bo1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:40] <blix> rexy....ok..
[04:40] <Geek_> bo1: we can't read your mine. whats the issue?
[04:40] <Johto> Geek_: nothing wrong with the command line...
[04:40] <Geek_> *mid
[04:40] <Johto> Geek_: keyboard is your friend :D
[04:40] <blix> let me check qtparted.
[04:40] <axz> hi people
[04:40] <bo1> MY harddrive is read only>>>>>>>>>>>>>
[04:40] <zendo> I need to make deb package out of directory that consists of many directories and files, so I can install it and then remove it without having to manually keep log of what's and where changed. Can someone please tell me how to quickly do this?
[04:40] <Adnan_> bo1, what do you mean?
[04:41] <FFForever> Geek_, isn't\ it mind :D
[04:41] <jisatsu> is it possible to fsck the /home partition without rebooting?
[04:41] <blix> mmm, not too obvious how qtparted splits a partition....
[04:41] <adaran> what kind of voodoo does one have to do to get the jack plugin of alsa to work?
[04:41] <Johto> jisatsu: hmm
[04:41] <arun> does anyone know of a good calendar application for gnome?
[04:41] <blix> I will be right back.
[04:41] <Johto> Jimbob: maybe not
[04:41] <bo1> my hard drive is read only i cant change anything on my hardrive
[04:41] <Geek_> Johto: no, not command line. In *nix everything is assumed to be a flat text file or folder. I kinda think it might be logical to extend that to objects
[04:41] <stefg> bo1: yeahm that's an anti-tinkering security measure ... :-)
[04:41] <rexy_> alexandre: type glxinfo | grep vendor in a console
[04:41] <vanberge> any way to 'force' refresh rates?  i have an LCD that gnome is pushign at 56
[04:41] <rexy_> that should say what driver is installed i think
[04:41] <Adnan_> bo1,  you running ubuntu on your hdd yea?
[04:41] <Geek_> bo1: whole HDD? what FS?
[04:41] <Johto> Jimbob: i use XFS filesystem so need to "fsck" :D
[04:41] <bo1> noo
[04:41] <l3r377> has anyone gotten compiz-fusion to keep the settings this weekend? it keeps wiping my "move window" plugin to not being selected (and a few others)

[04:42] <icone> hey guys !!!     need a litle help here .... already late to a project :(      I have apache-ssl,   php5,  mysql5  installed on my system, but when I try to open one php file (ex: https://localhost/index.php)  and the browser just returns the file as a download ... I think it's missconfigured or something ... :(
[04:42] <Johto> vanberge: isnt it depending on graphic card driver setting ?
[04:42] <rexy_> icone, you have to set your mime types
[04:42] <Geek_> bo1: well? :)
[04:42] <Adnan_> bo1: try to be a little more descriptive rather than throwing out three letter words each time
[04:42] <vanberge> stefg, not my res...  refresh rate.  resolution is fine
[04:42] <rexy_> and associate the php interpreter with php extensions
[04:42] <zendo> anyone, please?
[04:42] <vanberge> Johto,  i dont know...  :-)
[04:42] <icone> rexy_   ok, i'll try
[04:42] <vanberge> Johto, but, it only lets me pick 56
[04:42] <bo1> adnan_ can u help me
[04:43] <soulrider> hello everyone. Im trying to dpkg --configure initramfs-tools for my new kernel, but my /boot partition is full. I cannot remove any older kernels, i only have ht eone im running and th eone im trying to config. Any ideas?
[04:43] <stefg> vanberge: refresh rate is part of the resolution. You need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf , see the guide for a howto
[04:43] <rexy_> actually not sure on the mime type, they should be set already anyway, but you have to tell apache to use the php interpreter on php extensions and such
[04:43] <alexandre> rexy_:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35114/
[04:43] <Geek_> bo1: no one can help you without more details
[04:43] <Johto> vanberge: oh, what gfx card?
[04:43] <Adnan_> bo1: just like Geek_ said
[04:43] <rexy_> !ati | me
[04:43] <ubotu> me: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:44] <vanberge> Johto, nvidia 6200 geforce fx
[04:44] <bo1> i have a hard drive that i made 4 partions. all of my partions are read only and i cant change anything
[04:44] <Johto> vanberge: and you have installed drivers?
[04:44] <Geek_> bo1: we arn't psycic, and we need to know a few things before we can *try* to work out whats wrong. What Filesystem, is it the whole drive, or what partitions of how many...
[04:44] <Geek_> hmm
[04:44] <vanberge> Johto, yep
[04:44] <Adnan_> bo1: what file system are they?
[04:44] <Geek_> lets see...
[04:44] <Johto> vanberge: you need to edit somethning in the xorg.conf
[04:44] <rexy_> alexandre: what you get from running glxgears?
[04:44] <Geek_> bo1: is your ubuntu install one of the partitions?
[04:44] <Johto> vanberge: cant help more, but make sure you make a backup of the xorg.conf
[04:44] <bo1> am useing live cd and i have 4 partions
[04:44] <push> can anyone help me install my nvidia 8600 gts
[04:44] <Sjano> hello
[04:45] <Adnan_> LOL!!!!!!!
[04:45] <Geek_> bo1: what FS are the partitions?
[04:45] <Geek_> waaaaiitttt
[04:45] <alexandre> rexy_:about 650 FPS
[04:45] <bo1> what is that
[04:45] <soulrider> hello everyone. Im trying to dpkg --configure initramfs-tools for my new kernel, but my /boot partition is full. I cannot remove any older kernels, i only have ht eone im running and th eone im trying to config. Any ideas?
[04:45] <Geek_> liveCD shouldn't write to partition by default
[04:45] <vanberge> Johto, .... ok.  tks !
[04:45] <Adnan_> bo1: type this in the terminal fdisk /dev/sda then type p and press enter
[04:45] <Geek_> if you wanna INSTALL, there's a way to do it, but thats seperate...
[04:45] <rexy_> alexandre i just looked in the atibinaryhowto, but it seems your card is not supported, so the approriate driver is already installed
[04:45] <bo1> can how can i change the partion 2 write
[04:45] <stefg> soulrider: how big is your /boot?
[04:46] <pzmk> siema
[04:46] <soulrider> 32mb
[04:46] <Geek_> Adnan_: yanno, i almost suspected that was the issue ;p
[04:46] <zendo> Is there some graphical tool like in Windows, for making deb packages?
[04:46] <alexandre> rexy_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35115/
[04:46] <Adnan_> Geek_: lol i see
[04:46] <bo1> so how can i change my partions permission settings 2 write?
[04:46] <Sjano> ehm... i've been asking around abit... and people say ubuntu is easiest linux distro to start with... but i wondered what programs should i get and how do i install them? and how do i install compiz fusion
[04:46] <Adnan_> bo1: Take a look at the parition table and it will tell you all you need to know then you can tell us what file systems each one of your partitions are
[04:47] <rexy_> alexandre: seems fine, did you try runnin ageofempire 2 with wine ?
[04:47] <Geek_> Sjano: what programmes to get should be what programmes you need ;). as for compiz...
[04:47] <soulrider> !software | Sjano
[04:47] <ubotu> Sjano: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents
[04:47] <stefg> soulrider: that's tight. you'll have to do someting about that anyway. so copy the complete /boot dir over to your /root (if it's not lvm or raid), and comment out the /boot entry in /etc/fstab and adjust grub
[04:47] <bullgard4> What is the role or function of 'IEC958' in AlsaMixer?
[04:47] <Geek_> !compiz-fusion > Sjano
[04:47] <alexandre> rexy_: yes, but i get the error about directDraw
[04:48] <soulrider> stefg: good idea.. i hadnt thought of that..
[04:48] <stefg> soulrider: I meant / , not /root, of course
[04:48] <axz> heys people i installed version 7.04 how to i upgrade to 7.10?
[04:48] <axz> by update?
[04:48] <soulrider> stefg: ill do that from my other installation
[04:48] <Adnan_> bo1: If you're still really confused to all this and are running from the live cd then just load the GUI installer and select "Guided - Use entire disk" that wat ubuntu will confiure your partitions without asking you anything else, and once done you should find your HDD is writeable indeed
[04:48] <Trist_an> hello all
[04:48] <bo1> HOW CAN I CHANGE MY PERMISSIONS OF MY HARD DISK TO READ AND WRITE?
[04:48] <soulrider> be right back :)
[04:48] <alexandre> rexy_: ERROR:   make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw
[04:48] <Adnan_> bo1: you need to be kicked i think
[04:48] <kibiak> ...
[04:49] <stefg> !attitude | bo1
[04:49] <ubotu> bo1: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:49] <Adnan_> bo1: we are trying to help
[04:49] <Geek_> Adnan_, bo1: using the guided/entire fisk will wipe the whole thing
[04:49] <rexy_> hmm can you check if this "glxinfo|grepdirect"  says yes
[04:49] <kibiak> do you speak french ?
[04:49] <Trist_an> I have a trouble with kmail. For some e-mails when I click on it the sender name change to Unknwon the date goes to 01-01-1970 and the mail is empty. If there was an attachment, the mail is still as big as if it were here but I can't open it
[04:49] <Adnan_> Geek_ I know, but it doesn;t sound like he has a lot to worry about since he just wants the OS installed on his HDD. Providing he doesn't have anythign important it should be ok
[04:50] <Trist_an> I speak french...
[04:50] <Karti> bo1: I believe that the live disk is a way to try the Linux system without damaging your disk.
[04:50] <Geek_> Adnan_: does he?
[04:50] <Trist_an> why kibiak ?
[04:50] <rexy_> !fr | kibiak
[04:50] <ubotu> kibiak: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:50] <Sjano> whats the diffrence between ubuntu edge and fedora ?
[04:50] <Adnan_> Geek_: I don't know, he's not being too descriptive
[04:50] <Geek_> Adnan_: thats the big issue ;)
[04:50] <Adnan_> lol
[04:50] <alexandre> rexy_: unknown command
[04:50] <Geek_> Sjano: lots
[04:50] <kibiak> merci
[04:50] <rexy_> glxinfo | grep direct
[04:50] <stefg> Sjano: see http://www.distrowatch.com
[04:51] <bo1> IS MUST BE A WAY TO CHANGE THE PERMISSIONS SETTINGS TO READ AND WRITE
[04:51] <Adnan_> LOOOOOL
[04:51] <Adnan_> oh dear
[04:51] <Karti> bo1: Which is why they are set to read only, not sure if you can do it with Kubuntu but you can set a persistant drive with Knoppix if that is what you are after
[04:51] <Sjano> thanks for the answers people
[04:51] <alexandre> rexy_: Direct Rendering: yes
[04:51] <bo1> YEAH I KNOW THAT MUCH
[04:51] <stefg> bo1: please stop shouting, you're getting really annoying
[04:51] <Ind[y] > Can I get Microworlds Pro on my linux box?

[04:52] <Karti> bo1: I can see why people are rushing to help you! ;)
[04:52] <silvertip257> ;)
[04:52] <bo1> tell me how to change the permissions of my hard disk
[04:52] <stefg>  /ignore bo1
[04:52] <stefg> oops
[04:52] <silvertip257> lol
[04:53] <bo1> :-*:-*
[04:53] <PriceChild> !capitals is <alias> caps
[04:53] <drrngrvy> Bah. Ever since I ubgraded to 7.04, my network connection has been *really* fickle
[04:53] <bo1> so somebody tellme how i can change the permissions setting to read and write of my hard disl
[04:54] <rexy_> alexandre: then i dont know why it doesnt work, ati's are notoir for having bad driver support, but i dont know if there's a workaround for this
[04:54] <clever> drrngrvy: same here
[04:54] <silvertip257> I'm using Dia to make diagrams, but when I save my diagrams to *.png format it displaces my diagram imgs.
[04:54] <drrngrvy> oops, that's a funny typo
[04:54] <silvertip257> bo1:  wait a sec ... I will get a writeup
[04:54] <Geek_> bo1: not before you tell us what filesystems they are
[04:54] <drrngrvy> clever: at least it's not just me.
[04:54] <Geek_> cripes.
[04:54] <clever> drrngrvy: my wifi crashes randomly and recovers after 1-4 seconds
[04:54] <silvertip257> ok I will wait too Geek_
[04:54] <Geek_> if its NTFS you may need more stuff
[04:54] <Adnan_> !attitude | bo1
[04:54] <ubotu> bo1: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:54] <alexandre> rexy_: ok, thank you very much
[04:54] <Geek_> silvertip257: if you wanna help him, go ahead
[04:54] <clever> drrngrvy: and the wifi driver module was blacklisted(caused solid lockups on other systems)
[04:54] <drrngrvy> clever: I'm on a wired connection and that's just the same.
[04:54] <Geek_> don't wait for me on my account
[04:54] <clever> drrngrvy: my laptop is on wired atm
[04:55] <clever> drrngrvy: i stole its wifi card for use in other things
[04:55] <drrngrvy> clever: how's that?
[04:55] <silvertip257> bo1:  can you please tell me what filesystems you are using (ex:  ext2, ext3, reiserfs, ntfs, fat32) ???
[04:55] <drrngrvy> does it work ok?
[04:55] <clever> drrngrvy: it has an internal wifi card
[04:55] <clever> wired*
[04:55] <clever> the ethernet card in the laptop works fine
[04:55] <Adnan_> bo1: is the parition you want to write to even mounted?
[04:55] <bo1> disk*
[04:55] <bo1> no] 
[04:55] <Adnan_> bo1: what is disk* no?
[04:56] <drrngrvy> clever: the funny thing is before the upgrade I was struggling with my windows net connection but K/Ubuntu was super-stable; now it's the other way around
[04:56] <bo1> i didnt mount the disk
[04:56] <Adnan_> bo1: you need to tell us more or we can't help
[04:56] <Adnan_> bo1: mount it then
[04:56] <clever> drrngrvy: lol:)
[04:56] <drrngrvy> I'm just shocked it hasn't been sorted yet
[04:56] <clever> drrngrvy: i didnt have that wifi card on winblows
[04:56] <stefg> drrngrvy: get rid of avahi daemon and network-manager i f you don't use it
[04:56] <drrngrvy> what is an OS without stable net access?
[04:57] <clever> drrngrvy: my wifi driver also has a bug where it drops the last char of the essid
[04:57] <rexy_> safe :D
[04:57] <Meyvn> rexy_: heh
[04:57] <Geek_> drrngrvy: secure ;)
[04:57] <clever> drrngrvy: so if i try to connect to abcX i wind up on abc
[04:57] <drrngrvy> stefg: ahh. I only use network-manager to reset the connection when it breaks
[04:57] <Geek_> clever: add another charecter then? ;p
[04:57] <drrngrvy> Geek_: lol, yes. :)
[04:57] <clever> Geek_: yep thats what i do atm
[04:57] <clever> Geek_: but the gui tools cant be told to do that
[04:57] <clever> Geek_: if i pick a network from a list and hit connect it wont work
[04:58] <Geek_> clever: be thankful it isn't a ralink r61 ;)
[04:58] <clever> lol
[04:58] <bo1> i have a hard drive that i used for windows, my windows carshed, i have 4 partition and there all ntfs.
[04:58] <stefg> drrngrvy: use the tradidtional way with the network settings applet. network-manager is quite buggy, and avahi tends to do stupid things with /etc/reslv.conf
[04:58] <Geek_> broken on TWO oses
[04:58] <clever> its probly a simple off by 1 error in the source
[04:58] <clever> if i had the source i could probly fix the driver myself
[04:58] <Adnan_> bo1: you need to mount them than, ubuntu suports ntfs paritions
[04:58] <Karti> bo1: do you have a spare disk?
[04:58] <Adnan_> then*
[04:58] <rexy_> clever svn?
[04:58] <bo1> no
[04:59] <clever> rexy_: the kernel/drive source that ubuntu uses
[04:59] <clever> might be fixed in the svn i fetch:P
[04:59] <zlx-laptop> hey, every time i load ubuntu it comes up with "tty job control turned off" and I have to type modprobe piix then exit for it to load, is there any way of fixing this?
[04:59] <bo1> but it dont let me change the permission settings
[04:59] <rexy_> clever enable the src repository
[04:59] <clever> or might not be upgraded that far
[04:59] <clever> rexy_: yeah
[04:59] <Karti> Because if you are trying to get data off, I would suggest it would be easier to piggy back your current disk
[04:59] <clever> i allready have them enabled
[04:59] <clever> just need to get arround to apt-get source'ing the kernel and fixing it
[04:59] <rexy_> dont forget to submit a patch :)
[04:59] <Geek_> bo1: if a disk wasn't dismounted cleanly NTFS3-g may not be able to mount it
[04:59] <stefg> !ipv6 | drrngrvy, theis might help, too:
[04:59] <ubotu> drrngrvy, theis might help, too:: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[05:00] <rexy_> i wish networkmanager would work with my acx111 too :/
[05:00] <silvertip257> bo1:  are you trying to recover data?
[05:00] <Karti> Don't shout me down :) but I think he only has the facility to use the live disk
[05:00] <parker01_> zlx-laptop: umm you can modify the menu.lst and add those items
[05:00] <Adnan_> bo1: if you can get back into windows then try it and then shutdown properly then use the live cd and you should be able to mount the paritions
[05:01] <parker01_> rexy_: what is the problem with acx111 in yours?
[05:01] <bo1> am trying  to save the data from 1 partition to another partition
[05:01] <zlx-laptop> parker01_: ill look into that thankx :)
[05:01] <Adnan_> bo1: are you even considering our advice?
[05:01] <rexy_> parker01_: getting it do wpa in nm, it works via wpa_manager though
[05:01] <bo1> my windows is carshed
[05:01] <Karti> bo1: what is your windows error?
[05:01] <rexy_> wpa_supplicant even
[05:01] <parker01_> rexy_: a little inconvenience :)
[05:02] <bo1> missing hal.ddl and error loading boot.ini
[05:02] <silvertip257> bo1:  listen up here's my suggestion
[05:02] <rexy_> parker01_: a nuisance if you are moving around a lot, and it's ndiswrapper is somewhat limited when it comes to monitoring too i think
[05:02] <silvertip257> bo1:  is there a partition w/o data or lots of it?
[05:02] <silvertip257> bo1:  one that you can wipe?
[05:03] <parker01_> rexy_: you can write the script and execute over one you move around :)
[05:03] <polopolo> Hello, my microfone does not work on ubuntu?
[05:03] <bo1> silvertip257:no
[05:03] <Karti> bo1: Follow these ideas from MS http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314477
[05:03] <polopolo> how can I fix it
[05:03] <rexy_> well yeah parker01_ but if i wanted to roll my own linux i'd be using gentoo, not ubuntu :P
[05:03] <tony_> pls help! laptop boots to black screen after grub since i chose render nvidia in beryl mangager. how can i revert this choice without entering gnome?
[05:03] <Karti> bo1: If you have the original Windows disk you should be able to repair your system
[05:04] <bo1> i dontt
[05:04] <Karti> bo1:  have a look at th elink
[05:04] <silvertip257> bo1: if the other partitions can be mounted, take one of them copy their data to another w/ ntfs-3g
[05:04] <PriceChild> !windows | bo1
[05:04] <ubotu> bo1: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[05:04] <bo1> that is what am doing is not working
[05:05] <Calix> does anyone know how to reset your splash and login screens to default? i got a graphical error with a login theme and its giving me a brain bubble :D
[05:05] <silvertip257> bo1:  once that is done & there is no data on the partition you copied from, then you can format the <empty> partition ext3 to save to
[05:05] <silvertip257> bo1:  hopefully then you can get the man windows partition mounted
[05:05] <bo1> am triyng is not letting me all partitions are read only
[05:05] <polopolo> My microfone does not work on ubuntu, how can I fix it?
[05:05] <ward_> is it possible to overclock my centrino in ubuntu? (like clockgen for windows)
[05:05] <stefg> Calix: sudo apt-get install reinstall ubuntu-artwork (not sure if this resets gdm themes)
[05:05] <silvertip257> bo1:  unmount your partitions (you're running live cd right?)
[05:06] <rexy_> polopolo: make sure it's unmuted and turned up in the sound menu (right click on the speaker icon)
[05:06] <stefg> Calix: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-artwork that is
[05:06] <bo1> done
[05:06] <silvertip257> bo1:  mount /dev/drivespec /mnt/mntpt -rw
[05:06] <silvertip257> something like that should work
[05:07] <silvertip257> bo1:  you may need ntfs-3g though
[05:07] <bo1> what do i do with this
[05:07] <polopolo> rexy_ : no problem with sound, only nobody hears me
[05:07] <bo1> mount /dev/drivespec /mnt/mntpt -rw
[05:07] <drrngrvy> stefg: fair enough. I'm not sure what avahi does to be honest (sounds like a beer - asahi), but I'll use google ;)
[05:07] <Calix> stefg thanks, ill give it a shot :)
[05:07] <drrngrvy> I might have a look in a few weeks if this is still buggy, just for laughs
[05:07] <silvertip257> bo1:  run synaptic package manager & download ntfs-3g (search for it and download it)
[05:07] <silvertip257> bo1:  that command will mount partitions read/write
[05:07] <rexy_> polopolo: you can adjust your mic input there as well, most like it's off and muted you can change it by right clicking on the speaker and clicking on open volume controls
[05:07] <bo1> where do i type that
[05:08] <silvertip257> bo1:  in the terminal
[05:08] <bo1> ill be back
[05:08] <silvertip257> bo1:  Applications>Accessories>Terminal
[05:08] <silvertip257> ok
[05:08] <Karti> silvertip257: Wishes you all the best with bo1 ;)
[05:08] <polopolo> rexy_ : Thank you
[05:08] <stefg> drrngrvy: avahi is linux' idea of bonjour.... it was quite a stupid decisison to put it in the default install, since there are no known devices out yet which support it....
[05:08] <silvertip257> Karti:  love you too :(
[05:08] <Karti> lol
[05:08] <polopolo> rexy_ : i gonna check
[05:08] <silvertip257> it's being tough
[05:09] <drrngrvy> stefg: Thanks. Sorry, my connection went squwiff then...
[05:09] <silvertip257> Karti:  I could recover the stuff in like 5 minutes
[05:09] <Calix> stefg: i also found this bit saying that sudo update-alternatives --configure usplash-artworks.so can be used to reset your splash, im wondering if there is a similar command for the login screen?
[05:09] <silvertip257> as long as I can mount the disk
[05:09] <bo1> i got this message
[05:09] <silvertip257> ok
[05:09] <bo1> mount: mount point /mnt/mntpt does not exist
[05:09] <bo1> mount: mount point /mnt/mntpt does not exist
[05:09] <bo1> mount: mount point /mnt/mntpt does not exist
[05:09] <silvertip257> bo1:  yes I knokw
[05:09] <silvertip257> ok
[05:10] <Geek_> bo1: you need to make the mountpoints first
[05:10] <silvertip257> bo1:  do you know what your partitions are called?
[05:10] <bo1> noo
[05:10] <stefg> Calix: would be along the lines of sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ... but you can also edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[05:10] <silvertip257> bo1:  are you running a PATA hard drive or SATA ?
[05:10] <bo1> yes i know
[05:10] <bo1> sata
[05:10] <Karti> Blimey - just watching TV- a 7foot 7inches teenager!
[05:10] <silvertip257> bo1:  ok, let's see ..
[05:11] <Geek_> stefg: pidgin supports bonjour, as do some printers, as does a web server that was default with suse's KDE (didn'y make much sense YBH)
[05:11] <silvertip257> bo1:  in the terminal run sudo fdisk
[05:11] <bo1> i know partition name
[05:11] <silvertip257> bo1: what is it?
[05:11] <bo1> i did it then
[05:11] <silvertip257> it's mounted?
[05:12] <Calix> stefg: as a temporary workaround is there a command to set it so you autologin with a certain account? so i can bypass my buggy login?
[05:12] <bo1> i got this message
[05:12] <Calix> if none of this other stuff works :)
[05:12] <silvertip257> ok
[05:12] <bo1> Usage: fdisk [-l]  [-b SSZ]  [-u]  device
[05:12] <bo1> E.g.: fdisk /dev/hda  (for the first IDE disk)
[05:12] <bo1>   or: fdisk /dev/sdc  (for the third SCSI disk)
[05:12] <bo1>   or: fdisk /dev/eda  (for the first PS/2 ESDI drive)
[05:12] <bo1>   or: fdisk /dev/rd/c0d0  or: fdisk /dev/ida/c0d0  (for RAID devices)
[05:12] <silvertip257> bo1:  run "sudo fdisk /dev/sda"
[05:12] <Geek_> Calix: how about using a livecd or alt install cd to go in with single user mode, and add a new account?
[05:13] <polopolo> rexy_: Does not work, en it not dempped
[05:13] <Calix> im on a live cd just now, can i log in to my account from here?
[05:13] <blix> I'm back
[05:13] <Karti> oops just realised this is the Ubuntu ,not the Kubuntu channel *hides*
[05:13] <bo1> The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 9729.
[05:13] <bo1> There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
[05:13] <bo1> and could in certain setups cause problems with:
[05:13] <bo1> 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
[05:13] <bo1> 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
[05:13] <bo1>    (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
[05:13] <stefg> Calix: none that i know of. you can still login on the console, then startx and run  gdm and gdmconfig from there
[05:13] <zAack> Dumb question :\ dmesg stand for what? D? mesg=message ?
[05:14] <Calix> ok
[05:14] <blix> what's the off-topic room name?
[05:14] <silvertip257> bo1:  did you get ntfs-3g?
[05:14] <Johto> ubuntu-offtopic
[05:14] <Dr_Link> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:14] <blix> thanks johto
[05:14] <bo1> no
[05:14] <Calix> ok guys thanks a lot, i think im sorted :0
[05:14] <bo1> how?
[05:14] <Calix> gunna go hav a bash :D
[05:14] <silvertip257> bo1:  you'll want to get ntfs-3g and then we can mount that drive hopefully
[05:14] <polopolo> rexy_?
[05:15] <rexy_> polopolo: are you sure the microfphone is in the right slot?
[05:15] <polopolo> yes
[05:15] <bo1> where i get that from?
[05:15] <Dr_Link> I have an Ubuntu PC. Now whenever I try to do desktop effects... it tells me to enable NVDIA 3D on my graphics card. How the **** do I do this when there's a button that says "Enable Driver?" I click the button. It tells me to come back later when the driver is being used. (WTF?)
[05:15] <stefg> !nvidia | Dr_Link
[05:15] <rexy_> !nvidia | Dr_Link
[05:15] <ubotu> Dr_Link: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:16] <silvertip257> bo1:  System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager - run that and then search for "ntfs-3g"
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> !dual
[05:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:16] <rexy_> polopolo: what program are you using to record sound?
[05:16] <rexy_> i'm on wifi
[05:16] <rexy_> i'm always behind :|
[05:16] <stefg> rexy_: see why wlan is crap :-)
[05:16] <ward_> is it possible to overclock my centrino in ubuntu? (like clockgen for windows)
[05:16] <stefg> copper rules ok!
[05:16] <polopolo> rexy_ : teamspeak2
[05:16] <Bucketface> Hmm, I'm having a problem with Amarok. It does not play anything, all my music is MP3 and it freezes when I try to play anything.
[05:16] <Bucketface> What do I do?
[05:17] <rexy_> polopolo: teamspeak is a crappy program
[05:17] <Ind[y] > Is there a Logo programming/education tool for GNOME (similar to KTurtle)?
[05:17] <rexy_> make sure you are not running any other things that use audio
[05:17] <LaCtoSE> use xmms, Bucketface
[05:17] <polopolo> rexy_ : I have no choice :
[05:17] <polopolo> '(
[05:17] <tiffanie>  My screensaver will not work. I changed everything in my settings and screen begins to fade to black, it goes completely black, and then reveals my desktop again.
[05:17] <Bucketface> thanks
[05:17] <bo1> ok it didnt find it
[05:17] <SeveredCross> Or Exaile
[05:17] <rexy_> polopolo: shutdown all audio programs if they are open
[05:17] <SeveredCross> Or just install the packages...
[05:17] <foxray> does ubuntu use iptables or selinux? i can't ssh into my other linux box
[05:17] <rexy_> then try to start teamspeak again
[05:17] <SeveredCross> For MP3 support.
[05:17] <rexy_> foxray: iptables are off by default
[05:17] <pero> Hello, I've just installed Tribe 5, but it only has 2 workspaces, How can I change it to 5
[05:17] <polopolo> rexy_ done
[05:18] <Enselic> foxray: can you ping the other box?
[05:18] <pero> Hello, I've just installed Tribe 5, but it only has 2 workspaces, How can I change it to 4*
[05:18] <stefg> !firewall
[05:18] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:18] <foxray> Enselic: yes i can ping the other box
[05:18] <Enselic> foxray: is sshd running on the other box?
[05:18] <foxray> Enselic: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[05:18] <thingy> Ind[y] : http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php/Gnome-Turtle
[05:18] <ling> admin
[05:18] <foxray> Enselic: yes it is running
[05:18] <Ind[y] > thingy: thanks :-)
[05:18] <Enselic> foxray: have you customized sshd_config a lot?
[05:18] <silvertip257> bo1:  here follow this guide to get ntfs-3g:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[05:19] <foxray> Enselic: this ip is in hosts.allow
[05:19] <Dr_Link> Ok.
[05:19] <soccermike1337> is there a guide for installing ubuntu with the alternate disc?
[05:19] <silvertip257> bo1:  this will help you in using ntfs-3g:  http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#usage
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> soccermike1337: it is pretty much self-explanatory.
[05:19] <polopolo> rexy_ : it's done
[05:19] <stefg> foxray: seems the other box denies unknown hosts... http://www.astro.caltech.edu/~mbonati/WIRC/manual/DATARED/setting_up_no-password_ssh.html might help
[05:19] <soccermike1337> ok
[05:19] <rexy_> polopolo: try teamspeak now
[05:20] <silvertip257> Karti:  x_x :(
[05:20] <Dr_Link> I clicked on the Enable checkbox for my NVDIA graphics card driver in Restricted Drivers. A box appeared and I clicked "enable drivers." The driver entry on the list of restricted driver grayed out for a moment. But then it came back as Not In Use. Again. (I retry and the same thing happens. WTF?)
[05:20] <Enselic> foxray: any particular reason you base authenticatin on hosts.allow?
[05:20] <polopolo> okey
[05:20] <foxray> Enselic: no reason i thought the other ip was blocked but it isn't
[05:20] <bo1> do i got 2 do all that stuff
[05:20] <spike> hi, has anybody got a dell XPS M1330?
[05:21] <Johto> Dr_Link: obviously someting is not working :p
[05:21] <Enselic> foxray: so, did you change sshd_config alot?
[05:21] <spike> I cant see it being sold with ubuntu, and I've read some bug reports about wireless hiccupping
[05:21] <Enselic> foxray: it seems to me as if you messed up sshd_config
[05:21] <Karti> silvertip257: what about apt-get install ntfs-3g ?
[05:21] <Dr_Link> You think?
[05:21] <Dr_Link> Any ideas?
[05:21] <Johto> Dr_Link: nope
[05:21] <silvertip257> Karti:  it's not in sources I dont think
[05:21] <rexy_> spike: wireless is a bit shaky in general still with linux, but it's going to change for the better soon
[05:21] <Johto> Dr_Link: :S
[05:21] <Dr_Link> ...anyone ELSE?
[05:21] <Johto> haha :D
[05:21] <soccermike1337> wow
[05:21] <ksteo> is there any guide one installing zydas zd1211 based usb wireless adapter on ubuntu feisty?
[05:21] <soccermike1337> "error reading boot cd"
[05:21] <silvertip257> Karti:  I unfortunately have important school work to complete now and can't screw around
[05:21] <silvertip257> lata
[05:21] <rexy_> Dr_Link: did you try the manual installation in the nvidia howto?
[05:21] <Karti> byeeeeeeeeeeee
[05:22] <stefg> Dr_Link: have you read the Howto page about installing Nvidia-drivers? What card is that?
[05:22] <Dr_Link> I don't know.
[05:22] <Johto> Dr_Link: go read the nvidia driver howtows in ubuntu guides
[05:22] <stefg> Oh... so how should /we/ know then? telepathy?
[05:22] <Dr_Link> I'm in it.
[05:22] <polopolo> rexy_ does not work
[05:22] <Dr_Link> I just don't see the answer.
[05:22] <pero> How can I configure Compiz in Tribe 5?
[05:22] <adeel> hi
[05:23] <adeel> anyone home
[05:23] <sparr> my tablet as an ambient light sensor.  how might i get access to that?
[05:23] <stefg> Dr_Link: run 'lspci | grep VGA' in a terminal
[05:23] <axz> guys how come i cant logon on consol as super user
[05:23] <mkultrax> hey i've been trying to install all night, i use different hdd, ubuntu cds, alternate, desktop, ect.. it always hangs when i try to format my drive at 33 percent, if i use another app to format, it hangs when copying linux-server package. i swapped my memory also..
[05:23] <foxray> Enselic: i got it working now, careful when u have the same username on both boxes, sshd doesn't like that
[05:23] <Enselic> foxray: it works perfectly fine with me
[05:24] <rexy_> polopolo hit Alt-F2 and enter killall esd in the command line
[05:24] <Enselic> foxray: I have martin everywhere
[05:24] <polopolo> ok
[05:24] <rexy_> then try teamspeak again
[05:24] <foxray> Enselic: my sshd_config file is a little more restrictive
[05:24] <thingy> axz: sudo -i will give you a # prompt
[05:24] <Dr_Link> GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x, stefg.
[05:24] <Johto> Dr_Link: uh, thats "shitty" card :S
[05:24] <rexy_> mkultrax: did you make sure the cd or harddrive are ok?
[05:24] <Johto> Dr_Link: old as hell :I
[05:25] <mkultrax> i used 3 diff hdds
[05:25] <stefg> Dr_Link: ok, now i know. You need the 'legacy' driver
[05:25] <N3oXid> Hello everyone
[05:25] <mkultrax> maybe diff cdrom drive, thanks i just tried diff cds
[05:25] <Enselic> foxray: really, sshd have no way of knowing the clients username anyway
[05:25] <thingy> axz: and the answer to you question is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:25] <spike> rexy_: that comment oscillates between useless and irrelevant, a) because I have 2 ubuntu boxes working with hostap as wifi AP and never had a single issue, b) 'cause whatever you deem "soon" might not be soon enough for me or not reflect any real schedule
[05:25] <Enselic> foxray: afaik    i.e. it should not matter what the username on the client box is
[05:25] <Johto> Dr_Link: you were trying way too new drivers ..that driver u tried was for "geforce 5xxx -> up"
[05:25] <soccermike1337> is there any reason why the 5.10 installer will load but neither the 7.x installer or alternate cd will load?
[05:25] <N3oXid> A little question : anyone here with an NFS export of a ntfs-3g mount point ?
[05:26] <rexy_> soccermike1337: ancient hardware?
[05:26] <spike> so, the question remains the same: has anybody got a dell xps m1330 with ubuntu on it and can confirm that the specif hardware on it works fine? there are no reports on linux-on-laptop and similar and dell doesnt sell that model with linux preinstalled
[05:26] <rexy_> soccermike1337: you could try booting the textbased installer i think
[05:26] <soccermike1337> alternate install = text based
[05:26] <soccermike1337> it wont load
[05:26] <tiffanie> Anyone know what would be the cause of a screensaver not working?
[05:26] <stefg> Dr_Link: run 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy'
[05:26] <rexy_> soccermike1337: where does it hang?
[05:26] <soccermike1337> but my hardware is a 2.83 GHz core 2 duo and 2 gigs of ram
[05:27] <soccermike1337> well on the menu for the installer
[05:27] <rexy_> !hardware
[05:27] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:27] <soccermike1337> i hit enter
[05:27] <rexy_> go there spike
[05:27] <soccermike1337> and it says loading
[05:27] <soccermike1337> and it wont go any further
[05:27] <rexy_> soccermike1337: whats your hardware
[05:27] <soccermike1337> i waited for over 10 minutes last night
[05:27] <soccermike1337> cpu - 1.83 GHz Core 2 Duo T5600

[05:28] <N3oXid> Is anyone there who know how to do an NFS export of a ntfs-3g mount point ?

[05:30] <soccermike1337> yes its a laptop
[05:30] <Johto> Bucketface: whats stopping you ?
[05:30] <soccermike1337> HP DV6000
[05:30] <Dr_Link> XD
[05:30] <tony_> pls help! laptop boots to black screen after grub since i chose render nvidia in beryl mangager. how can i revert this choice without entering gnome?
[05:30] <Johto> Bucketface: i loove my Amarok 
[05:30] <Bucketface> When I go into Apps, and then try to open it, it doesn't open.
[05:30] <thingy> soccermike1337: most likely it needs a kernel boot param...lemme go check.
[05:31] <soccermike1337> o
[05:31] <soccermike1337> ok
[05:31] <Bucketface> If I try to open a file with ti, it freezes and I have to force quit it.
[05:31] <Johto> Bucketface: like in never have?
[05:31] <Bucketface> What?
[05:31] <Johto> Bucketface: have you managed to open Amarok EVER?
[05:31] <Bucketface> Yeh, but that was before reinstall
[05:31] <Bucketface> Since I tried using this time it doesn't work.
[05:32] <Johto> Bucketface: oh, you need to "reset" amarok settings...delete amarok's setting files
[05:32] <Bucketface> From synaptics?
[05:32] <robertjames> I need help with my XORG
[05:32] <Johto> Bucketface: no
[05:32] <Bucketface> How do I do it
[05:32] <poningru> tony_: does it put out any sound at all?
[05:32] <robertjames> before i go NUTS !
[05:32] <rexy_> !ask | robertjames
[05:32] <Johto> Bucketface: find the amarok stuff inside your home dir..
[05:32] <ubotu> robertjames: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:32] <soccermike1337> while thingy is checking on that, does the ubuntu installer have a partition editor?
[05:32] <soccermike1337> cause i need to shrink a partition
[05:32] <poningru> tony_: if you have any speakers
[05:32] <soccermike1337> so i can install ubuntu next to windows
[05:32] <rexy_> soccermike1337: yep
[05:32] <Johto> Bucketface: lemme check where they were
[05:32] <thingy> soccermike1337: ok here you go: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-laptops/75587-linux-hp-dv6000-amd-laptops.html it seems apic is broken on the machine and you need to pass the noapic and nosmp kernel options for it to boot up. :-( have checked if there is a bios upgrade from hp for the machine? if so, flash the bios since it may remove these issues
[05:32] <Bucketface> Where abouts will it be?
[05:32] <soccermike1337> ok
[05:32] <rexy_> soccermike1337: it can resize a windows partition, but make sure to defrag windows first
[05:32] <polopolo> rexy_ thank you, you saved me from starting more windows xp
[05:32] <Bucketface> Johto: , I'm in like file system :D?
[05:33] <ah-Yeop> hi everybody
[05:33] <robertjames> i have a 553v LG monitor im getting incorrect resolutions
[05:33] <poningru> tony_: oh eek I would press ctrl+alt+f1
[05:33] <soccermike1337> ok
[05:33] <soccermike1337> um
[05:33] <robertjames> ubuntu defualts its self to 1024x768 87hz
[05:33] <soccermike1337> that noapic isnt going to cause any problems is it?
[05:33] <Johto> Bucketface: yes, you can "reset" the amarok stuff to factory default wiping this directory: ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok
[05:33] <rexy_> polopolo: yw, make sure to not run any audio programs when using teamspeak, ussually the esd sound daemon auto releases the sound card so teamspeak can use it
[05:33] <stefg> Dr_Link: You could try to d/l the package and install it offline on that box. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/12132 . But it's not worth the hassle... the card won't work with effects enabled anyway
[05:33] <poningru> tony_: login and then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xorg-server
[05:33] <soccermike1337> is it going to interfere with ubuntu later on if i use the noapic?
[05:33] <Condiment> sup
[05:33] <Bucketface> Johto? I type that in terminal?
[05:33] <Johto> Bucketface:  OH dear !
[05:34] <Johto> Bucketface: why everyone are this n00b
[05:34] <Johto> Bucketface: lol
[05:34] <polopolo> ok
[05:34] <BlizZvt> guys.. how to detect the keyboard type again?
[05:34] <Condiment> you tell me ;)
[05:34] <Johto> Bucketface: please learn linux basics...
[05:34] <rexy_> !benice
[05:34] <Johto> Bucketface: i dont care how you delete it, just do it
[05:34] <axz> whats best way to make portitions fully write access
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about benice - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:34] <wilson_Br_2007> folks, VLC can't play dvds. i already install libdvdcss and nothing works.
[05:35] <rexy_> !dvd
[05:35] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[05:35] <rexy_> did you try that guide wilson_Br_2007?
[05:35] <BlizZvt> guys.. how to detect the keyboard type again?
[05:35] <soccermike1337> thingy: i just noticed that thread is for AMD cpus, im running dv6000 intel
[05:35] <BlizZvt> my nvidia panel chaned my xorg.conf
[05:35] <rexy_> BlizZvt: preferences -> keyboard ?
[05:35] <Johto> Bucketface: so you dont understand anything about linux?
[05:36] <Johto> Bucketface: like not even the basics of terminal / bash commands, like cd,rm,ls, blaahblaah?
[05:36] <BlizZvt> rexy_: but how to store this settings into xorg.cong?
[05:36] <Pici> !noob | Johto
[05:36] <ubotu> Johto: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[05:36] <robertjames> rexy: i have a LG 553v monitor that ubuntu defaults it to 1024x768 87hz, when it should be 1024x768 60Hz im not able to change the Hz in System - Prefrence - SCreen Resolution. it will only give 87Hz. I have tried editing the XORG but i just cant get it to change
[05:36] <soccermike1337> noob, jfgi, stfu, rtfm.
[05:36] <Dr_Link> ACK! UBUNTU KERNEL PANIC!!!
[05:36] <robertjames> PLEASEEE HELP!
[05:36] <BlizZvt> rexy_: I need to set that my keyboard have 105 keys
[05:36] <Johto> Bucketface: if you hare using Gnome, you can see the hidden files and direcories using ctrl+h every file starts . is hidden
[05:36] <stefg> !fixres | robertjames
[05:36] <ctothej> How can i have unison-gtk ignore permissions?
[05:36] <ubotu> robertjames: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:36] <rexy_> robertjames: is that an lcd screen?
[05:37] <robertjames> no CRT
[05:37] <tony_> poningru, what will that do?
[05:37] <robertjames> i have tried already step by step that Wiki already
[05:37] <bo1> i think am doing it wrong?
[05:37] <rexy_> robertjames: what is your videocard like
[05:37] <Bucketface> thanks
[05:37] <poningru> tony_: make a copy of your current X settings and then lets you choose the correct driver and then turns that on during the next reboot
[05:37] <robertjames> i have a Nvidia TNT 32MB video card AGP 4x
[05:38] <rexy_> you can set the layout using that tool BlizZvt
[05:38] <bullgard4> What is the role or function of 'IEC958' in AlsaMixer?
[05:38] <jerbear> i've used apt-get to grab the source files for a package. how can i reuse the debian/rules file to use the same configure options to build another package (same program, different version)?
[05:38] <tony_> thx!
[05:38] <poningru> robertjames: go check to see if your crt can utilize that frequency
[05:38] <poningru> what crt do you have?
[05:38] <Bucketface> I know cd, and apt-get ;d
[05:38] <stefg> robertjames: you need the nvidia-glx-legacy driver for that card
[05:38] <BlizZvt> rexy_: but this settings isn't stored in my xorg.conf
[05:39] <poningru> !dpkg-build
[05:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dpkg-build - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:39] <BlizZvt> rexy_: i need just one line
[05:39] <poningru> !motu
[05:39] <ubotu> motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[05:39] <robertjames> http://www.wilkinsonpc.com.co/productos/partes/hard1319.html
[05:39] <robertjames> thats what my Monitor will hold
[05:39] <poningru> jerbear: look through that motu wiki page
[05:39] <rexy_> BlizZvt: i dont know how to change that, man xorg.conf probably has pointers on that
[05:39] <poningru> there are instructions in there
[05:39] <soccermike1337> it says it cant read the disc :-/
[05:39] <soccermike1337> it cant read either disc
[05:39] <robertjames> there i have the Horizontal and Vertical Freq
[05:39] <soccermike1337> the alternate or the live
[05:39] <BlizZvt> rexy_: thank you
[05:39] <poningru> BlizZvt: what are you trying to do?
[05:39] <rexy_> did you try googling for ubuntu keyboard reconfiguring?
[05:40] <bo1> br back soon
[05:40] <rexy_> change the default keyboard layout in the xorg.conf poningru
[05:40] <BlizZvt> rexy_: i will try again
[05:40] <jerbear> poningru: huh? motu wiki?
[05:40] <mp3guy> is it possible for me to put a password on certain programs? Like I want to have an automatic log on, but require a password to run firefox
[05:40] <soccermike1337> >.< Could someone help me?
[05:40] <poningru> BlizZvt: did you try to go to system->keyboard->layout
[05:40] <rexy_> there probably is a tool for that since it's used in the installation process, but i have no idea how to start that
[05:40] <poningru> !motu | jerbear
[05:40] <robertjames> rexy did you follow the link
[05:40] <ubotu> jerbear: motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[05:40] <rexy_> robertjames: sorry what link?
[05:41] <robertjames> http://www.wilkinsonpc.com.co/productos/partes/hard1319.html
[05:41] <BlizZvt> poningru: yeah, ofc
[05:41] <poningru> ofc?
[05:41] <poningru> BlizZvt: what does it say there?
[05:41] <robertjames> here you have the Horizontal and Vertical for my monitor
[05:41] <naki35366> please help me with my intel 915g card and 3d rendering....
[05:41] <BlizZvt> of course
[05:41] <robertjames> i cant get the xorg to work it with
[05:41] <rexy_> it's set to it's max resolution already robertjames
[05:41] <rexy_> 1024x768 is what the specs say is max
[05:41] <poningru> robertjames: you can set it up manually
[05:41] <poningru> hold on
[05:42] <robertjames> yes it is but the Hz ubuntu is setting it to is WRONG !
[05:42] <mp3guy> is it possible for me to put a password on certain programs? Like I want to have an automatic log on, but require a password to run firefox
[05:42] <robertjames> it is setting it to 87Hz i need it to be 60Hz
[05:42] <poningru> robertjames: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:42] <rexy_> aah
[05:42] <poningru> put that in a terminal and run it
[05:42] <rexy_> 87hz is better then 60 hz though
[05:42] <naki35366> please can anyone help me with glx settings on a intel 915g card ?
[05:43] <robertjames> running
[05:43] <rexy_> you have to specificly tell xorg.conf to use 60hz to drive it, but i'm not sure how to do that
[05:43] <robertjames> Autodetect hardware ? yes or no ?
[05:43] <poningru> robertjames: yes
[05:44] <poningru> naki35366: it should just work
[05:44] <axz> whats best way to make my partitions fully write access?
[05:44] <jerbear> poningru: any specific place for rebuilding packages?
[05:44] <rexy_> mp3guy: you need special programs to use those kinds of restrictions
[05:44] <poningru> axz: why would you want to do that?
[05:44] <stefg> robertjames: do you get the monitor to sync in 87 Hz? If it works leave it like that, you don't want flickering 60 Hz
[05:44] <poningru> jerbear: not really
[05:44] <naki35366> poningru I don't understand... it doesn't work
[05:45] <rexy_> axz: that is a really bad idea in general, and not needed for day to day usage of ubuntu
[05:45] <poningru> naki35366: ok what are you trying to do and what have you done so far?
[05:45] <poningru> axz: what are you trying to do that you need to make it writable?
[05:45] <naki35366> i tried to reinstall the mesa-glx package
[05:45] <poningru> naki35366: ...
[05:45] <poningru> naki35366: why would you do that?
[05:45] <naki35366> but my glxinfo is : Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[05:45] <naki35366> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[05:46] <robertjames> rexy did the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:46] <poningru> naki35366: hmm what version of ubuntu are you doing?
[05:46] <naki35366> it seems that the libglx isn't on my computer
[05:46] <robertjames> how ever the Hz sync it will not display where to change it
[05:46] <naki35366> 7.04
[05:46] <poningru> robertjames: it should have asked you that
[05:47] <Radical> guess what :D im back @ vista
[05:47] <poningru> robertjames: do it again this time read what it asks you, and under monitor pick advanced
[05:47] <Slart> mp3guy: can't you use sudo to run a program as another user? not root I mean.. perhaps make firefox runnable only to a specific user and then use sudo to run it as that user.. only guessing
[05:47] <axz> uhmm my irc client crashed lol
[05:47] <axz> :S
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> Radical: sorry to hear that.
[05:47] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to convert an ubuntu open office document (flyer) to jpeg, for printing and for web publishing?
[05:47] <poningru> naki35366: try reinstalling the X driver, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:48] <Radical> whats so sorry about that.. atleast i can do things here..
[05:48] <poningru> mikubuntu: iirc you can do an 'export'
[05:48] <naki35366> this is my xorg.log : (II) LoadModule: "glx"
[05:48] <naki35366> (WW) Warning, couldn't open module glx
[05:48] <naki35366> (II) UnloadModule: "glx"
[05:48] <naki35366> (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module does not exist, 0)
[05:48] <rexy_> Slart you'd have to change groups on a lot of other files too
[05:48] <mp3guy> rexy_: what programs?
[05:48] <Bucketface> Johto, think I got that all wiped.
[05:48] <poningru> mikubuntu: open it in openoffice and do a file->export
[05:48] <naki35366> I tried this many and many times... :-(
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> Radical: what can you not do in ubuntu?...
[05:48] <Slart> rexy_: wouldn't it be enough to just change owner of the main firefox binary?
[05:48] <poningru> naki35366: are you sure you have intel?
[05:48] <rexy_> Slart: nope
[05:48] <mikubuntu> poningru: ok, then what?
[05:48] <rexy_> slart actually
[05:48] <naki35366> yes I've a Dell optiplex
[05:48] <rexy_> if the rest is world readeable that would work
[05:48] <poningru> mikefoo: uh... pick jpeg?
[05:49] <rexy_> but it's trivial to get around
[05:49] <Radical> download software install it easily, and have it working without any confusing stuff
[05:49] <Slart> rexy_: oh, well.. the idea had it's 10 seconds of fame =)
[05:49] <magnetron> mikubuntu: you can print it without converting it to jpeg. why not use the PDF export button? PDFs are easy to print and perfect for the web
[05:49] <poningru> naki35366: do a lspci -v
[05:49] <fsckr> the number of workspaces i have keeps changing.  I always put 4 but it always changes back to 1 later on anyone else have this issue, and is there a config I can just add to make it stay?
[05:49] <rexy_> by just installing your own tarball
[05:49] <Radical> if i run ubuntu im like.. wow im bored, lemme go back to vista
[05:49] <naki35366> this is my lspci grep VGA : 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)
[05:49] <poningru> naki35366: hmm that is weird
[05:49] <rexy_> mp3guy: you want refined access control, meaning Selinux and apparmor and probably a bunch of custom scripts, short answer it's not really doable
[05:49] <Slart> rexy_: at least it would stop some of the evildoers.. =)
[05:49] <magnetron> Radical: install Nexuiz, it's a great game for Ubuntu
[05:49] <mikubuntu> poningru: i need jpeg to publish a copy in online classified
[05:49] <SmoothOp> but
[05:50] <SmoothOp> a @#$ty game
[05:50] <SmoothOp> in general
[05:50] <magnetron> !enter
[05:50] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:50] <Radical> you think nexuiz can beat css or directx10 games like bioshock? :)
[05:50] <rexy_> mp3guy: what are you trying to achieve?
[05:50] <Johto> Bucketface: did it start ?
[05:50] <SmoothOp> Radical, bioshock is a pos
[05:50] <SmoothOp> or maybe i dont like video games anymore
[05:50] <poningru> SmoothOp: please dont feed the trolls
[05:50] <FFForever> my dad reinstalled xp and now he can't get back into linux help?, how do i get back grub?
[05:50] <SmoothOp> i currently limit myself to playing two at a time
[05:50] <Bucketface> No.
[05:50] <naki35366> One week ago I installed the nvidia driver for another pc ( my ubuntu is on USB Disk)
[05:50] <rexy_> FFForever: boot the live cd
[05:50] <poningru> !grub | FFForever
[05:50] <rexy_> from there you can fix grub
[05:51] <ubotu> FFForever: 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
[05:51] <Bucketface> I changed to that directory you posted.
[05:51] <Johto> FFForever: boot from liveCD and follow some guide in the internet
[05:51] <Bucketface> And used rm
[05:51] <SmoothOp> poningru, i'm not a killer, but i'm done, will comcast still throttle me if i dl my torrrents on ubuntu
[05:51] <Johto> FFForever: dont remember but look about "restore grub"
[05:51] <mikubuntu> magnetron: guess i need to check if craigslist will take pdf
[05:51] <naki35366> Now I've removed it but it seems that the old glx module doesn't more exist
[05:51] <FFForever> how can i run the auto grub configuration script?
[05:51] <steve001hsd> how do i configure a raeon x1300 when i have an onboard also
[05:52] <magnetron> mikubuntu: you could do a screenshot (alt+printscreen) and convert it to jpg with GIMP
[05:52] <poningru> steve001hsd: thats a bios thing
[05:52] <naki35366> Is there a procedure to restore the original glx module ?
[05:52] <poningru> FFForever: follow the instructions that ubotu linked you to
[05:53] <steve001hsd> I set the radeon as the first display but i cant get it to display more than text
[05:53] <Slart> naki35366: you can't just reinstall from the repository? sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx?
[05:53] <poningru> steve001hsd: ah gotcha
[05:53] <poningru> steve001hsd: new vid card?
[05:53] <mikubuntu> magnetron: i don't understand; you mean (alt + P)?
[05:53] <steve001hsd> yes
[05:53] <naki35366> yes but is the nvidia-glx module compatible with my intel 915g ?
[05:53] <poningru> naki35366: it is not
[05:53] <poningru> hold on dude
[05:53] <magnetron> mikubuntu: beware, all files except photos will look blurry in jpg format. no, the Prt Scr button
[05:53] <steve001hsd> and fresh install
[05:54] <Slart> naki35366: ah.. ok.. true.. I have no idea if that'll work.. I'd guess it won't
[05:54] <naki35366> I don't know what other to try... :-(
[05:54] <mikubuntu> magnetron: omg, that's the first time i ever SAW that button ... lol
[05:54] <poningru> steve001hsd: press ctrl+alt+f1 and login and then do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:55] <steve001hsd> did that but i cant find the correct params
[05:55] <mikubuntu> magnetron: ok, so what's the best format to preserve resolution/continuity?
[05:55] <rexy_> !formats
[05:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about formats - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:56] <poningru> steve001hsd: then do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:56] <poningru> and then pick vesa
[05:56] <naki35366> please do you have ideas ?
[05:56] <rexy_> mikubuntu:  think png is good but it's a lossy format, i think tiff is lossless, which gives you the best results
[05:56] <steve001hsd> k one sec
[05:56] <magnetron> mikubuntu: best format would be Open Document Format. in descending order: HTML, PDF, PNG, GIF, JPEG
[05:56] <Geekosaur> I am trying to convert a svg drawing into a jpg format.  Any suggestions?
[05:57] <poningru> naki35366: I'm at a loss dude
[05:57] <magnetron> Geek_: use GIMP
[05:57] <poningru> naki35366: hold on
[05:57] <naki35366> ok thanks
[05:57] <magnetron> Geek_: or inkscape
[05:57] <rexy_> magnetron: the first three are containers,  image formats,
[05:57] <ToolBust> I want a bikes game...any one knows one?
[05:57] <magnetron> Geekosaur: GIMP or Inkscape
[05:57] <Geek_> magnetron: you mean Geekosaur ;p
[05:57] <voraistos> HI i have a question. How come we cant mount iso(s) rw but fileroller can read AND write them ?
[05:57] <Geekosaur> GIMP doesn't in hale correctly - it is very large
[05:57] <ToolBust> I want a bikes game...any one knows one?
[05:57] <magnetron> Geek_:  sorry
[05:57] <poningru> naki35366: xserver-xorg-video-intel
[05:58] <poningru> reinstall that package
[05:58] <rexy_> voraistos: they are just a filesystem like any other, it's just that cd's are ussually not writeable
[05:58] <naki35366> I've also tried that driver instead that my i810 but my monitor is black
[05:58] <robertjames> rexy im going crazy here you know
[05:58] <mikubuntu> magnetron: so do a file--->export to opendoc, from html to jpeg, whichever works for me?
[05:58] <magnetron> mikubuntu: yeap
[05:58] <robertjames> ive been trying this for hours already
[05:58] <rexy_> robertjames: , the boot problem right, what was your laptop again?
[05:58] <robertjames> and im not getting no where
[05:59] <naki35366> pherhaps the screen settings are wrong...
[05:59] <robertjames> no the CRT resolution problem
[05:59] <voraistos> rexy_ exactly. i dont understand why iso9660 wont mount read an write. there is just no point.
[05:59] <Geekosaur> Inkscape only puts out png
[05:59] <robertjames> its a Desktop by the way
[05:59] <poningru> naki35366: wait you have i810?
[05:59] <poningru> hold on then
[05:59] <naki35366> yes
[05:59] <rexy_> unless you want to write voraistos
[05:59] <rexy_> robertjames: run me through it again plz?
[05:59] <steve001hsd> poningru what driver would you recomend for the ati x1300 all i get is a black scree
[05:59] <poningru> steve001hsd: vesa
[05:59] <voraistos> rexy_ well i want to write, and i cant :P
[05:59] <naki35366> but my card is a 915g
[05:59] <ToolBust> does any one knows a bike simulator game?
[06:00] <The> :S
[06:00] <poningru> naki35366: can you paste that lspci line again?
[06:00] <The> ouch
[06:00] <naki35366> ok
[06:00] <alsa> how can i list channels
[06:00] <alsa> ?

[06:00] <voraistos> rexy_ mount will just not accept the rw option, while in fact it could
[06:00] <voraistos> rexy_ err wait a minute :P
[06:01] <rexy_> robertjames: i'll have a look, but why must you have 60 hz? it's worse then 87hz
[06:01] <mikubuntu> magnetron: this was my first time using open office, as soon as i figure all these things out i already love it.  Tell me, i prolly could have done the whole thing in GIMP, also, right?  just a picture with superimposed text ...?
[06:01] <voraistos> rexy_ i didnt check permissions on the ISO
[06:01] <solarwaver> is anyone knows why restricted manager does play?
[06:01] <jaime-san> which room is for the dev version?
[06:01] <robertjames> because its out of focus on 87Hz the monitor hightest is 60Hz
[06:02] <magnetron> mikubuntu: well GIMP is nice and can solve most problems, but i don't think it can read the Open Document Format
[06:02] <robertjames> if ill do 87hz i keep seeing small horizontal lines across the screen and it hurts my eyes!
[06:02] <jaime-san> Anyone familiar with ruby on rails please PM me i need some help on setup
[06:02] <BrendanW> How would I delete a file through therminal? I know sudo but I don't know what to put for the "delete" command. I know how to put the file name, so I just need to know what is between them.
[06:02] <solarwaver> robert james that was for me?
[06:02] <robertjames> i pasted you my xorg on the private
[06:02] <magnetron> Geekosaur: you could convert a png to jpeg with GIMP
[06:03] <mp3guy> how do I make it so sudo will ask for my password each time? at the moment it only asks the first time after a new boot, then not again
[06:03] <poningru> naki35366: ok go into a terminal
[06:03] <poningru> and type in glxinfo
[06:03] <naki35366> ok
[06:03] <solarwaver> ok what private?
[06:03] <mikubuntu> magnetron: my question is, couldn't i have done the whole project with gimp INSTEAD of openoffice?

[06:05] <Bo1> am back i messed up my hard disk
[06:05] <poningru> robertjames: and you didnt follow the instructions I told you to do
[06:05] <voraistos> rexy_ yep. there was no problem with the permissions (and in fact i did all that stuff as root, so it shouldnt be a problem anyway). I honestly think its a missing feature. we can write isos, just not mount the rw. stupid.
[06:05] <Bo1> all my data is not showing
[06:05] <mikubuntu> magnetron: ya, gotta familiarize myself with all of them.  well, thanks again for your help, gonna go back to work on it.
[06:05] <magnetron> !sound | B_166-ER-X
[06:05] <poningru> robertjames: do the dpkg-reconfigure thing and pick advanced under monitor
[06:05] <ubotu> B_166-ER-X: 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).

[06:06] <poningru> BrendanW: sudo rm -r foldername
[06:06] <Bo1> can i recover all my data from my hard disk
[06:06] <robertjames> i did how ever it did not work

[06:25] <rvalles> I've tried to upgrade to gutsy but I'm having a bit of trouble
[06:25] <Bo1> astro76:can i still run the program even if am useing livecd.
[06:25] <Drk_Guy> !gutsy > rvalles
[06:25] <rvalles> basically, set the sources.list to gutsy where there was the old one, and update-manager -d
[06:26] <Drk_Guy> !gutsy
[06:26] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[06:26] <rvalles> ok
[06:26] <tony_tomato> Hey! no sound in acer 5920 laptop. tried the tips in ubuntufoorums.org without avail

[06:27] <FFForever> rexy_, should i just reinstall ubuntu :D
[06:27] <dcrao> poningru: here is the pastebin   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35131/
[06:28] <astro76> Bo1, as with everything else, best tends to be subjective. It's the most common and it's the best if you don't a reason to use otherwise
[06:28] <poningru> dcrao: looking
[06:28] <rexy_> FFForever: you should be able to repear grub from the livecd
[06:28] <tony_tomato> in this thread it says i should try ENABLING  SURROUND and then unmuting some other options... still no sound..http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=513546&highlight=5920+sound
[06:28] <rexy_> just make sure you use the right settings
[06:28] <FFForever> rexy_, the funny thing is i am looking at the grub menu.lst and it all looks right
[06:29] <poningru> FFForever: why are you hand adjusting it?
[06:29] <poningru> FFForever: just let the grub-update take care of it
[06:29] <joey383> I did apt-get install php5 and I don't have the php command... is that the wrong package?
[06:29] <rexy_> joey383: php -V says?

[06:34] <ubotu> magnetron astro76: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[06:34] <rexy_> !mirror | cam
[06:34] <ubotu> cam: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[06:34] <pike_> sacmat: why is that?
[06:34] <faileas> "a" ?

[06:34] <dcrao> poningru: tell me
[06:35] <sacmat> Lamego: i want to hack it'[s kernel
[06:35] <poningru> dcrao: when you bootup your computer next time edit the grub command and remove the words quite and splash
[06:35] <sacmat> can you please help other than just asking me why i need that ?
[06:35] <astro76> IdleOne, I did not abuse the bot! :p
[06:35] <Distro^Junkie> sacmat you are highly unlikely to find that old of a version
[06:35] <sacmat> Distro^Junkie: okay
[06:35] <Lamego> sacmat, because to help I need to understand your requirements
[06:35] <sacmat> Lamego: lol
[06:35] <IdleOne> astro76: you did by using STFU wich also against the !CoC
[06:35] <dcrao> poningru: how to do that? could u tell me
[06:35] <mjb> You want to hack it's kernel?  To what end?  Why not hack the latest kernel?

[06:36] <ward_> i think its best you don't waste energy on people like him...
[06:36] <sacmat> mjb for the purpose of hacking
[06:36] <poningru> dcrao: yeah when you see the grub countdown thing press esc and then press e and then go down one to kernel and press e and then backspace over splash and quite and then press enter and then press b
[06:36] <PokieisBORk> hello  can anybody help me figure out why My install off ndiswrapper is not fixing my broken WIFI?

[06:37] <sacmat> please paste again
[06:37] <sacmat> i did /clear
[06:37] <rexy_> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/warty/
[06:37] <dcrao> poningru: will do that now and tell u in mins
[06:37] <rexy_> first hit on google
[06:37] <poningru> dcrao: and then watch over which portion takes longest time
[06:37] <Bo1> astro76:first is install ubuntu without useing the whole hard disk, then i want to recover the whole hard disk. "i lost my 4 partition"
[06:37] <sacmat> rexy_: thanks man you made my day.
[06:37] <BrendanW> Can somebody tell me how to access /home//.compizconfig?
[06:37] <sacmat> i really appreciate your effort rexy_
[06:37] <sacmat> i will never forget you man
[06:38] <rexy_> sacmat: dont thank me, thank google..
[06:38] <ward_> lol
[06:38] <sacmat> and all others you were asshole listen you were real assholes
[06:38] <ward_> haha rexy_
[06:38] <ward_> ty, sacmat :-)
[06:38] <PokieisBORk> hello  can anybody help me figure out why My install off ndiswrapper is not fixing my broken WIFI?
[06:38] <astro76> Bo1, if you have anything to recover on a Hard Disk, the last thing you want to do is install something first. What happened that you lost your 4 partitions?
[06:38] <mjb> we love you too, sacmat.....
[06:38] <Bucketface> Okay, can someone actually help me this time please? I'm new, don't expect me to be some kinda of wiz thing...I get an 'error 2' when I try to Add/Remove programs reload
[06:39] <thomp1> im having a strange problem with amarok my /music directory is now empty
[06:39] <Bo1> astro76:so are you going to help me?
[06:39] <Bo1> astro76:ok so which one is the frist step for me?
[06:39] <rexy_> PokieisBORk: did you look at the wifi page? also what chip are you trying to install as it's very specific
[06:39] <astro76> Bo1, the first step would be answering my question about what happened to lose your partitions?
[06:39] <PokieisBORk> i did look at the page and i think it is the chip i'm having problems w/ but i don't know how to figure which one to get
[06:40] <rexy_> PokieisBORk:  lspci
[06:40] <kravlin> i'm trying to get to a cd in my drive but it's not mounted under media. I can get to it through the gui but not through the terminal. any help?
[06:40] <PokieisBORk> yup did thatBroadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[06:40] <Bo1> astro76:i press "set disklable"
[06:40] <rexy_> kravlin: mount /media/cdrom
[06:41] <kravlin> rexy_: but i can see it in the gui. Doesn't that mean it's mounted?
[06:41] <rexy_> BCM4318 is the chip
[06:41] <rexy_> kravlin: probably
[06:41] <astro76> kravlin, typing mount will show you where it's mounted (or if you click on the icon and click properties, then go to the volume tab, it should say where it's mounted)
[06:41] <rexy_> it's either in /media/cdrom or /media/cdrom0
[06:42] <pike_> kravlin: is it an audio cd by any chance? if so you wont be mounting it
[06:42] <PokieisBORk> rexy:  i can find that in http://ftp.us.dell.com/network?
[06:43] <arun> I just installed an application from a script (not the repos). what would be the best way to uninstall it?
[06:43] <astro76> PokieisBORk, have you seen this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4318_%5BAirForce_One_54g%5D
[06:43] <pike_> arun: alot of scripts have an --uninstall switch
[06:44] <astro76> Bo1, and setting the disklabel you lost your partitions? Did you lose stuff you didn't want to lose?
[06:44] <arun> pike_: so.. for example?
[06:44] <pike_> arun: well for example 'sudo scriptname.sh --uninstall'
[06:44] <Bo1> astro76:"yes"yes"
[06:45] <PokieisBORk> astro76: no but thank you SO much i've follow it & come back if i have questions, THNX!
[06:45] <Stylee> heya, I have Nvidia fx5600, it worked perfectly on festy, and yesterday I had to reinstall ubuntu... and now I can't get it to work
[06:45] <arun> pike_: alright, will try it. thanks
[06:45] <aantn> can I install Ubuntu i386 on a hard drive formated in Apple Partition Map?
[06:45] <astro76> Bo1, I'm not familiar enough to help you with partition table recovery, you can use SystemRescueCD to do that but it's not easy. No backups?
[06:46] <thomp1> can somone help me solve folder problems. I have a strange folder "$Home
[06:46] <mcrea> hi
[06:46] <arun> pike_: it's a bash script, is that ok?
[06:46] <mcrea> how can i install ati driver
[06:46] <aantn> I have a firewire/usb external hard drive, and I'd like to use it both to boot os x on my mac, and to boot linux on a pc
[06:46] <aantn> is that possible?
[06:46] <Bo1> astro76:how do i use that to recover my lost partition "SystemRescueCD"
[06:46] <aantn> mcrea: fglrx or radeon?
[06:46] <PokieisBORk> sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[06:46] <PokieisBORk> sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[06:46] <_wintermute_> mcrea google ati driver install ubuntu
[06:46] <Gringo> mcrea: try the application "Envy", it's for Nvidia, but it works for most ATI cards as well
[06:47] <pike_> arun: yeah. you have a link to the script? maybe someone can look at it
[06:47] <mcrea> i install a bash script ati driver 40.4 from ati website
[06:47] <Stylee> actually where can I find easy ubuntu? I think it helped me once... but not sure where to find it anymore
[06:47] <arun> pike_: the bash script installed mozilla sunbird to the /usr/bin directory
[06:47] <mcrea> gringo: i tried but i cant run it
[06:47] <dcrao> poningru: It took 50 seconds to boot . Thank u. But the ubuntu booting screen was not visible
[06:47] <astro76> !envy
[06:47] <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!
[06:47] <fsckr> what program in ubuntu creates those cool little ascii art or is there one
[06:47] <elkbuntu> mcrea, envy can potentially do silly stuff, so it's probably best you cant
[06:47] <mcrea> _wintermute_:  i tried with envy but i cant change my screen resolution
[06:48] <mjb> ubotu, what do you think about automatix?
[06:48] <pike_> arun: well.. unless youre concerned about the libs you could just remove the executables for it
[06:48] <_wintermute_> fsckr: i saw one in synaptic
[06:48] <arun> pike_: here's the script -- http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/35136/
[06:48] <_wintermute_> did you change your xserver.xorg file?
[06:48] <elkbuntu> !automatix | mjb
[06:48] <ubotu> mjb: 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.

[06:48] <steve001hsd> is anyone running a visiontek x1300 that could pm me a copy of their xorg.conf plesae
[06:48] <mcrea> 1280x1024 runnig 47Hz
[06:48] <_wintermute_> erm
[06:48] <_wintermute_> xorg.cof sorry
[06:48] <_wintermute_> typing ftw
[06:48] <Bo1> astro76:1 more thing i have a 2gb usb drive is that enough space to install ubuntu?
[06:48] <fsckr> _wintermute_, you remember the name of it?
[06:49] <cam> welp, i found what i was looking for.
[06:49] <cam> take care folks
[06:49] <_wintermute_> lol
[06:49] <_wintermute_> xorg.conf
[06:49] <mcrea> how can i use the shell script?
[06:49] <mcrea> install?
[06:49] <_wintermute_> stupid bandaid on my finger
[06:49] <_wintermute_> use sh
[06:49] <arun> pike_: any ideas? :)
[06:50] <astro76> Bo1, I don't think so, that would be very tight
[06:50] <nopcode> hey
[06:50] <_wintermute_> mcrea you can only run it at 1280?
[06:50] <mcrea> _wintermute_:  no
[06:50] <nopcode> i've got a source tree with a directory debian/... how do i build a package from that`?
[06:50] <pike_> arun: rm -fr /etc/opt/sunbird; rm /usr/share/applications/sunbird.desktop; rm /usr/bin/sunbird   should do it
[06:50] <_wintermute_> you want to run it at 1280
[06:50] <nopcode> dpkg-deb expects DEBIAN/
[06:50] <mcrea> its  running 1024x768 with 60 hz
[06:50] <Bo1> astro76: i have 1 2gb and another usb drive that is 256.
[06:50] <_wintermute_> ok
[06:50] <Bo1> astro76:256mb
[06:50] <arun> pike_: great, thanks. that won't affect the other apps, right?
[06:50] <astro76> Bo1, the 256 isn't going to help you ;)
[06:51] <pike_> arun: nope
[06:51] <arun> pike_ thanks a lot! what's rm -fr for
[06:51] <Distro^Junkie> how safe is it to intall ubuntu 6.06 and update to the latest version ? or would it be better to download the latest ?
[06:51] <Distro^Junkie> install*
[06:51] <dgarvey> arun: forced deleting stuff
[06:51] <arun> ah alright
[06:51] <_wintermute_> did you look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[06:51] <dgarvey> arun: be careful with that... :)
[06:51] <pike_> arun: the -f just means dont prompt me with a y or n. it means force and the -r means recursive so you use that when you want to delete a directory containing files
[06:51] <_wintermute_> you need to sudo it btw to make changes
[06:51] <astro76> Distro^Junkie, it's safe, but you'll have to do 6.06->6.10->7.04, installing just 7.04 if you can will be much easier
[06:51] <mcrea> _wintermute_:  yes
[06:52] <arun> pike_ alright.. thank you so much!!
[06:52] <Distro^Junkie> ok thanx astro76
[06:52] <Bo1> astro76:so you don't know that way to recover the partition i loseing useing "gnome partition editor"
[06:52] <_wintermute_> what resolutions show up at the bottom
[06:52] <pike_> np
[06:52] <astro76> Bo1, you definitely can't do it with gparted (gnome partition editor)
[06:52] <Distro^Junkie> astro76: you running 7.10 ?
[06:52] <astro76> !sysresccd | Bo1
[06:52] <ubotu> Bo1: SystemRescueCd is a Linux system on a bootable CD-ROM. It contains a number of admin tools including gparted and partimage. http://sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[06:52] <astro76> Distro^Junkie, 7.04
[06:52] <pike_> arun: bear in mind youll need to prefface all that with sudo
[06:53] <Distro^Junkie> just wondering how stable it is
[06:53] <Ashfire908> what's the number for the latest fistey kernal?
[06:53] <_wintermute_> fistey lol
[06:53] <astro76> :O
[06:53] <mcrea> _wintermute_:  i changed it like this http://pastebin.com/m2403e0c2
[06:53] <arun> pike_: yup, i guessed as much. thanks a lot, it seems to have worked
[06:53] <_wintermute_> im still running dapper >.>
[06:53] <astro76> Ashfire908, 2.6.20-16 if memory serves
[06:53] <mcrea> _wintermute_:  my xorg.conf file

[07:10] <elkbuntu> Polygon89, neither are ideal, and easyubuntu is now outdated by the easy codec installation features in feisty
[07:11] <unimatrix9> ToolBust, you have to install it first with cedega
[07:11] <Ahadiel> ToolBust, If you hadn't already noticed, this is #ubuntu, not #cedega
[07:11] <Polygon89> astro76, ah. whatever, in gutsy there is a metapackage for all codecs anyway
[07:11] <andy_25> hello how can i unpack password filled rar files??
[07:11] <Polygon89> andy_25, i had the same problem
[07:11] <Polygon89> andy_25, the fileroller application does not support passwords but the command line does, let me go find the command lol
[07:11] <ToolBust> but I open cedega and there is only one button....Mount dvd
[07:12] <andy_25> mh
[07:12] <chickenF> I have a problem: checking for FFMPEG_SWSCALER... configure: error:  FFmpeg Swscaler not found. Did you enable it when you compiled ffmpeg ?
[07:12] <andy_25> thats bad
[07:12] <Polygon89> andy_25, yeah its annoying.
[07:12] <unimatrix9> ToolBust : there should be more buttons : mount , play , install etc
[07:13] <ToolBust> yes
[07:13] <chickenF> could be in package libavcodec0d from medibuntu.
[07:13] <Polygon89> andy_25, ok i think this is the command
[07:13] <ToolBust> but the only button avaliable is the mount
[07:14] <unimatrix9> ToolBust : this is how it should look http://images.linspire.com/application/poi/185038/5_0_1_0_0_0_50_linspire0_2/cedega-5.0-interfacescreenshot.jpg
[07:14] <Polygon89> andy_25, unrar -ex -p<PASSWORD>
[07:14] <unimatrix9> but you have to get support from channel #cedega or go #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:14] <fsckr> Polygon89, i found it in gconf-editor :)
[07:14] <andy_25> ok
[07:14] <Polygon89> fsckr,  cool

[07:18] <bruenig> hp
[07:18] <Kenvyro> Okay thanks, so uh I already have some partitioned space and one is with windows on it, one with music and one with movies. Im trying to delete the Windows partition and install Ubuntu, however after I successfully delete it and trying to go forward I get this: "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu."
[07:18] <bruenig> or ibm
[07:19] <astro76> noob1zn, or get one from system76.com with Ubuntu installed
[07:19] <ward_> noob1zn, look for models that you like, then verify how ubuntu will run on them by searching the net/asking here
[07:19] <aman> astro76 can u plz tell me how to setup an internet connection in ubuntu 7.04
[07:19] <faileas> noob1zn: IBMs are mostly linux certified, or will work, in my experience
[07:19] <astro76> Kenvyro, you should use gparted (system>administration>gnome partition editor) to do this before you start the installer, it's much easier
[07:20] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, did you set the partiton as root? as in you go to edit partiton > mount point > /
[07:20] <noob1zn> hmm
[07:20] <kousotu> bruenig, <kousotu> can that edit volume as well?
[07:20] <noob1zn> ibm's are a bit pricey in south africa
[07:20] <ward_> noob1zn, look for models that you like, then verify how ubuntu will run on them by searching the net/asking here
[07:20] <aman> Andrew67 r u there

[07:21] <aman> Rick00 can u help me
[07:21] <astro76> aman, you really need to give more info, what do you want to do with the network? why doesn't your internet work, modem, wireless, etc..?
[07:21] <Rick00> i would like to check someth .. i am currently running windowze.. and just installed ubuntu  but i dont see lilo installed and no boot loader
[07:22] <bruenig> Rick00, ubuntu defaults with grub
[07:22] <astro76> Rick00, well, FYI ubuntu uses GRUB
[07:22] <bruenig> you can install lilo though
[07:22] <aman> astr76 i have a direct connection broadband connected to lan card and working fine with windows
[07:22] <Rick00> i didnt see the option
[07:22] <|FrOst|> apt-get

[07:22] <kousotu> bruenig, <kousotu> can that edit volume as well?
[07:22] <aman> astro76 i have a direct connection broadband connected to lan card and working fine with windows
[07:22] <Kenvyro> astro76: Okay, I am in GParted now, but honestly I don't know what to start with.
[07:23] <arun> astro76?
[07:23] <tony_tomato> astro76: i get Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller "unknown device 0121" does this mean its not installed?
[07:23] <bruenig> kousotu, no, it converts, for the love of god, it tells you what it does, can you not do anything on your own
[07:23] <aman> astro76 but in ubuntu i dont know much
[07:23] <bruenig> I can't be burdened to read the description, let me ask someone
[07:23] <bruenig> dur
[07:23] <Polygon89> bruenig, stop being mean
[07:23] <kousotu> bruenig, agaian... AFTER converting, can it edit volume?
[07:24] <bruenig> kousotu, does it say that
[07:24] <aman> astro76 r u there?
[07:24] <astro76> aman, yes but it takes me time to formulate an answer and type a response :)
[07:25] <arun> ha

[07:25] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, one sec let me check
[07:25] <astro76> aman, this should just work, did it work on the same machine running windows?
[07:25] <unimatrix9> or are there any translators of ubuntu around?

[07:28] <nonlinear> i reformatted my HD and restored partition images to some partioins.  I used blkid to get the new uuid and updated fstab, and all parts work find except for /home/myusername, which is being mounted as /media/myusername (???).  i tired to mount and unmont manually but then it was nounted twice..  any suggestions on how to fix this?
[07:28] <Tribe5user> copyofjohan: I don't think so
[07:28] <astro76> aman, in a terminal, type 'ifconfig', and paste the output to pastebin...
[07:28] <astro76> !paste | aman |FrOst|
[07:28] <ubotu> aman |FrOst|: 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)
[07:28] <unimatrix9> no paste
[07:29] <Bo1> installing ubuntu is so hard is makeing mem mad!
[07:29] <elvirolo2> i have a Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wifi card, and it used to be detected (as eth1) but now it isn't anymare
[07:29] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 I'm at the "Prepare Partitions" screen. I guess /dev/sda1/ 78641 MB is the partition I want to install Ubuntu on.
[07:29] <XdorotaX> copyofjohan: just make sure your BIOS is set to boot off of a CDROM, and it will.
[07:29] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, did you select manually edit partition table?
[07:29] <Tribe5user> Bo1 what's wrong?
[07:29] <aman> astro76 what is pastebin
[07:29] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 Yes, I did
[07:29] <evilnone> does anyone have any idea why ndiswrapper would error out on a make command?
[07:29] <astro76> aman, see the link from ubotu a few lines up
[07:29] <arun> i logged in to an ftp server through nautilus. how do i log out? it doesn't seem to automatically log out on exit
[07:29] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, ok so are your partitons all set up the way you want? like you have one you want to have root and all that?
[07:29] <bruenig> elvirolo2, it changes sometimes especially during kernel changes I have found
[07:30] <ward_> Can I overclock my centrino in ubuntu? (like clockgen for windows)
[07:30] <aantn> !sysrq
[07:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sysrq - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:30] <[codemonkey] > bruenig
[07:30] <elvirolo2> bruenig: ah you're right, i did change the kernel
[07:30] <[codemonkey] > You overclock using your bios!
[07:30] <elvirolo2> bruenig: shall i change it back?
[07:30] <astro76> aantn, need info about sysrq?
[07:30] <Bo1> rtibe5user:i dont know how to install with out useing the whoe hard disk
[07:30] <bruenig> elvirolo2, just adapt to whatever it is calling it now
[07:31] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 I'm not sure what to answer. I selected the partition I want to install Ubuntu on, but as I said when I click on "Forward" the error comes up.
[07:31] <elvirolo2> bruenig: well... nothing
[07:31] <Tribe5user> Bo1: you need to partiton your hard disk
[07:31] <evilnone> ok so no1 can help?
[07:31] <zombie_monkey> how do I find out if the wireless card is drawing power?
[07:31] <elvirolo2> bruenig: i used to have eth0 and eth1, now i only have eth0
[07:31] <bruenig> elvirolo2, do "sudo modprobe ipw3945"
[07:32] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, ok so you just want a root partiton? your not doing anything weird like having a seperate /home and /boot and whatnot?
[07:32] <Bo1> tribe5user:tellme step by step " i am a windows user.
[07:32] <|FrOst|> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[07:32] <aantn> astro76: yup
[07:32] <Tribe5user> evilnone: well, if no one answered i guess not
[07:32] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 Yes I want to use that partition for the system. Other partitions are for data storage
[07:32] <AMbrose> What's best program to use to archive mp3 & videos for migration
[07:32] <aantn> astro76: my keyboard doesn't have one
[07:32] <bruenig> elvirolo2, does that err or not?
[07:32] <elvirolo2> bruenig: nope didn't work :(
[07:32] <aantn> astro76: and I want to know if there is any equivalent
[07:32] <astro76> Bo1, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[07:33] <|FrOst|> :P
[07:33] <astro76> aantn, hmm that stinks
[07:33] <bruenig> elvirolo2, where did you get this kernel?
[07:33] <aman> astro76 do i have to type 'ifconfig' or 'ipconfig'
[07:33] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, ok with that partiton selected, you should be able to click a 'edit partiton' button, try and find that
[07:33] <astro76> aman, ifconfig
[07:33] <aantn> astro76: yup
[07:33] <astro76> ipconfig is windows
[07:33] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 finished
[07:33] <|FrOst|> :O
[07:33] <AMbrose> What's best program to use to archive mp3 & videos for migration?
[07:33] <zombie_monkey> how do I find out if the wireless card is drawing power?
[07:33] <astro76> aantn, is it a laptop? I know on my laptop it's FN+end for sysrq
[07:34] <bruenig> AMbrose, you mean compression or what?
[07:34] <aman> astro76 is the working of both the commands same or differ
[07:34] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, ok there should be a mount point drop down box, see it?
[07:34] <AMbrose> yes
[07:34] <aantn> nope
[07:34] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 yes
[07:34] <aantn> astro76: its an apple keyboard
[07:34] <arun> does dpkg --force-hold mark an application to be on hold (not get upgraded)?
[07:34] <bruenig> !prefix | AMbrose
[07:34] <ubotu> AMbrose: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[07:34] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, ok select the "/"
[07:34] <astro76> aman, it's different, but just type the command with no options and pastebin the output
[07:34] <bruenig> AMbrose, just tar it
[07:34] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, that will make it so its your root partition
[07:34] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 I have "/dos" and "/windows"
[07:34] <Tribe5user> Bo1: try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[07:35] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, and also, for your external drives, its a good idea to have stuff like /media/dos and /media/windows
[07:35] <aantn> astro76: I'm trying to start compiz, and every time I do that lately it crashes
[07:35] <evilnone> so no1 can help me with my ndiswrapper comiple error?
[07:35] <AMbrose> bruenig would tar.gz work?
[07:35] <mkennedy> AMbrose: mp3 and most video files have little redundancy and won't compress further
[07:35] <aantn> astro76: so we'll see if f13 is sysrq equivalent
[07:35] <bruenig> AMbrose, tar.gz or tar.bz2 or just .tar if you don't want compression but just want one archive
[07:35] <AMbrose> OK thanks
[07:35] <alsa> any one here know CACTI ?
[07:35] <arun> i just installed vmware. is there an easy way (preferably gui) i can set up a shared samba folder between ubuntu and my vmware/windows installation?
[07:36] <bullgard4> What is the difference between 'audio mixer chip name' and 'Audio Controller'?
[07:36] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 I've been prompted to choose another "Type". What would be best? Also, isn't ntfs suppoed to be best?
[07:37] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, type? like type of filesystem for the root partition?
[07:37] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 Filesystem type
[07:37] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, for which partition root or your storage ones
[07:37] <axz> Guys any usefull tutorial about having full accesss to the partitions
[07:37] <bruenig> axz, be more specific
[07:38] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 the root partition. That's where I want to boot Ubuntu from
[07:38] <axz> i need to have fully write rights
[07:38] <bruenig> Kenvyro, ntfs is a horrible filesystem
[07:38] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, you should have that as ext3
[07:38] <Kenvyro> bruenig lol why? just because its being used by windows ^
[07:38] <bruenig> Kenvyro, and can't be used in *nix anyways, probably reiserfs or xfs would be best, but most go with ext3
[07:38] <axz> ned to give my swap portition full write rights to can move my music files to the swap then format the nfs one
[07:39] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, yeah use ext3... i dont think you can boot from ntfs... not to mention ntfs fragments.
[07:39] <arun> anyone?
[07:39] <nandemonai> Anyone know how to stop XFCE loading the gnome desktop (as in wallpaper)? I was messing with the panel and reverted back to xfce's but now even after setting it to 'use xfce desktop' it reverts to the gnome background manager on new login.
[07:39] <frying_fish> nandemonai, do you use nautilus at all?
[07:39] <tony_tomato> anyone: if you had a intel hda onboard soundcard would you go for the realtek linux driver or the alsa version? realtek offers drivers for kernels 2.4 but i have 2.6.20
[07:39] <Bo1> Tribe5user:not helpful to me.
[07:40] <frying_fish> as if you use nautilus whilst in xfce (or any other WM for that matter) nautilus by default is set to control the desktop
[07:40] <ward_> Can I overclock my centrino in ubuntu? (like clockgen for windows)
[07:40] <NeX> Hi
[07:40] <nandemonai> frying_fish: Nope, Thunar.
[07:40] <bruenig> axz, you can't move files into swap
[07:40] <axz> yes
[07:40] <Kenvyro> Polygon89 thank you very much, it seems to be installing now.
[07:40] <frying_fish> nandemonai, humn, thats that route bypassed then
[07:40] <bruenig> axz, if you need to put stuff in that physical place, you need to format it with another filesystem and move them over into that
[07:40] <Polygon89> Kenvyro, cool, and good luck
[07:40] <Tribe5user> Tribe5user: are you using the Desktop cd, as in: is it a graphical screen?
[07:40] <axz> so cant move from nfs to swap?
[07:40] <nandemonai> frying_fish: I went as far as deleting all .gnome dirs in home umm also..
[07:40] <|FrOst|> this channel is kewl :P
[07:40] <bruenig> !swap | axz
[07:40] <ubotu> axz: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[07:41] <frying_fish> check in the startup applications its not set to do something with gnome
[07:41] <Bo1> Tribe5user:useing live cd
[07:41] <axz> so what you suggest?
[07:41] <bruenig> axz, swap is like RAM
[07:41] <Nutubuntu> Firefox and Swiftweasel have been crashing on my computer.  (Computer runs 32-bit Feisty, sometimes Gnome, sometimes KDE, on an A64X2.) Memtest shows no problems. I've been starting SW with strace, and I have some strace output files. How do I figure out what they mean, and maybe get some idea of what the problem is?
[07:41] <bruenig> axz, format that partition or find some other medium to keep the files on
[07:41] <nandemonai> frying_fish: Somewhere i turned off 'load gnome services' and it's still coming up. Tried saving the session n all and now I'm stumped.
[07:41] <sugarat> you won't be able to mount a swap filesystem
[07:41] <Tribe5user> Bo1: do you want to dual-boot windows and Ubuntu?
[07:41] <frying_fish> nandemonai, I'm a little stumped as well actually, would have thought that it wouldn't be doing that with ti all turned off
[07:42] <Bo1> Tribe5user:sure why not
[07:42] <axz> sorry portition is ext3
[07:42] <axz> not swap
[07:42] <Kenvyro> lol this takes like 3min...
[07:42] <nandemonai> frying_fish: Maybe try removing my xfce session files?
[07:42] <Tribe5user> Bo1: are you using the live cd right now?
[07:42] <etale> I'm getting an audio error in xmms... it was working just fine yesterday
[07:42] <frying_fish> nandemonai, possibly
[07:42] <axz> bruenig: how about moving files from ntfs to ext3
[07:42] <arun> !shared
[07:42] <axz> possible?
[07:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shared - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[07:43] <Johto> !gates
[07:43] <etale> now I get... please check that soundcard is configured, correct output plugin, no other proram blocking
[07:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gates - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:43] <predaeus> etale, be more specific
[07:43] <bruenig> axz, yeah just cp them over
[07:43] <predaeus> etale. oh ok.
[07:43] <Johto> !bill gates
[07:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bill gates - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[07:43] <axz> hmmz well it gets me error i have no permission
[07:43] <axz> how to fix that?
[07:43] <bruenig> axz, use sudo
[07:44] <Bo1> Tribe5user:yeah
[07:44] <gunnar> Q: How do I change the audio setting from SPD/IF to headset?
[07:44] <axz> bruenig: whats the cmd to move all files from 1 portition to another
[07:45] <Tribe5user> Bo1: click on the install icon and follow the guide until you get to the partitioning part
[07:45] <bruenig> axz, there isn't A command, just do whatever suits your purposes, cp should probably be sufficient
[07:45] <aman> astro76 i have taken the output and pasted in the pastebin but which syntax i have to specify
[07:45] <axz> i cant use sudo in gui
[07:45] <wib> hi, i downloaded the latest java runtime environment (the bin-file) and i believe i installed it, but "java -version" still returns the old version number

[07:46] <atarinox> does anybody know a good channel for hardware problems?
[07:46] <Ahadiel> axz, then open a terminal and use sudo...
[07:46] <andre> is this normal, how do i procced?
[07:46] <Nutubuntu> atarinox, #hardware ?
[07:46] <axz> yeah..
[07:46] <Q_Continuum> need some help with nvidia-settings - I forget if there's a specific sub-channel for it or not.
[07:46] <atarinox> tried it.....
[07:46] <Tribe5user> axz: gksu?
[07:46] <arun> i just installed vmware. is there an easy way (preferably gui) i can set up a shared samba folder between ubuntu and my vmware/windows installation?
[07:46] <astro76> axz, then gksu nautilus if you really must use a gui to copy files
[07:47] <axz> lol

[08:02] <scatyb> I have a multimedia key on my keyboard that when pressed starts rhythmbox.  How can I change it to start totem?

[08:02] <cosmodad> I want to use Ubuntu's server edition. Does it suffice to download the "standard" Ubuntu then?
[08:02] <cosmodad> or is there a a special release?
[08:02] <Flannel> cosmodad: Either way will work
[08:02] <cosmodad> can't find anything on the webpage..
[08:02] <steve001hsd> is there a beryl channel
[08:03] <cosmodad> Flannel: so there is a link to the server edition? can you give it to me?

[08:03] <deus> How can i remove both gdm and kdm, i want to startup in a terminal
[08:03] <steve001hsd> thnx
[08:03] <dkbg> check the server edition
[08:03] <cosmodad> dkbg: stupid me, thanks
[08:03] <Flannel> cosmodad: It should be on most of the mirrors, http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/
[08:03] <tritoch> ward_: you would do it through your bios, not your OS
[08:03] <cosmodad> overlooked the right side
[08:03] <cosmodad> thanks all
[08:03] <aman> astro76 link is "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35145/"
[08:03] <Kenvyro> okay I have a serious problem here... Almost finished installing ubuntu then I got this: "Executing (grub-install hd0) failed. This is a fatal error." HEEELP!
[08:03] <deus> i tried to remove kdm with aptitude

[08:04] <Cuzz> Hi i would like to install NVidia driver. The Restricted Drivers Manager says: "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers.". Is this normal? How can i proceed if i need to fix it? Thanks

[08:04] <awilkins> Ok, I just ran into my first issue - I switched user sessions, and my touchpad stopped working, only the trackpoint carried on.
[08:04] <wib> did you know that entering "#/" in the nautilus address bar crashes nautilus?
[08:04] <ward_> tritoch, so i was hoping there was a similar tool for linux
[08:04] <awilkins> Both users can use the touchpad when logged in solo.
[08:04] <scatyb> I have a multimedia key on my keyboard that when pressed starts rhythmbox.  How can I change it to start totem?

[08:07] <Thursty> hi, can someone help me with partitioning for ubuntu
[08:07] <arman> hi everyone, new kernel update 2.6.22.5 has wireless stacks inside... does this mean if i complie it i may be able to run my wireless card?????? PLEASE Help
[08:07] <ward_> tritoch, there's no other way for me, + i want to be able to switch it on and off
[08:07] <ward_> tritoch, why don't you recommend OS OCing?
[08:07] <FordCortina> when your trying to backport a binary and apt-get build-dep doesn't tell you you're missing a library which also needs backporting that's a bug right?
[08:07] <aman> astro76 did u got any solution
[08:07] <FordCortina> backport a package**
[08:07] <Kenvyro> okay I have a serious problem here... Almost finished installing ubuntu then I got this: "Executing (grub-install hd0) failed. This is a fatal error." HEEELP!

[08:09] <Flannel> Kenvyro: Did the install complete anyway? (without grub)
[08:09] <pilibeen> anybody know why cant connect to unsecured wireless networks? only secured ones?
[08:09] <arman> hi everyone, new kernel update 2.6.22.5 has wireless stacks inside... does this mean if i complie it i may be able to run my wireless card?????? PLEASE Help
[08:09] <ward_> pilibeen, you need to pick the right security, passpghrase, or hex, asci, etc
[08:09] <FordCortina> arman: afaik wireless stack has been around for some time
[08:10] <bobbob1016> Is there a burning program that can burn data spanning DVD's?  I have 15 gig to burn, in multiple files.
[08:10] <pilibeen> ward_: ...but if it's an unsecured network that should all be blank? i can only connect ot my network when it's secure...
[08:10] <FordCortina> arman: some drivers use it some don't
[08:10] <arman> FordCortina: what is afaik wireless stack?
[08:10] <arman> oh
[08:10] <arooni_> folks!  i need to reinstall ubuntu.  i had a previous installation rocking with a 10GB partition for root and a 23 GB partition for home.  but now when i load up the partitioner.... i see that the 10GB partition is listed as : /media/sda1, and the 23GB partition is listed as /media/sda5.   what should i do ? ... i was thinking:  blow away the 10GB partition for /root/ .... create a new partition for home... and copy data from /medi
[08:10] <arooni_> a/sda5 over later...
[08:10] <FordCortina> arman: afaik = as far as i know
[08:10] <ward_> pilibeen, unsecured networks don't ask for a key
[08:10] <arman> do you think it is worth trying?
[08:11] <kane77> arman, afaik => as far as I know
[08:11] <zlx-laptop> :S Im watching a .mov file and all the people are blue!! what on earth hahaha
[08:11] <FordCortina> arman: what card or you trying to get to work?
[08:11] <ward_> pilibeen, i mean the screen doesnt popup, it just connects, but are you rying to connect to YOUR network?
[08:11] <FordCortina> are*
[08:11] <arman> RTL8187 USB
[08:11] <Cuzz> Hi i would like to install NVidia driver. The Restricted Drivers Manager says: "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers.". Is this normal? How can i proceed if i need to fix it? Thanks
[08:11] <arun> if i have an external hard drive, is 'eject' the same as 'remove safely'
[08:11] <arman> which is inside my asus p5b deluxe wifi
[08:11] <Cuzz> 8600gt
[08:11] <Pici> arun: yes
[08:11] <ward_> pilibeen, if its another network its possible it uses MAC adress filtering
[08:11] <arun> alright
[08:11] <Flannel> arooni_: you don't need /root/  And, you can always change those in the partitioner, to /home and /  Theyre just set to that by default, you're welcome to change them
[08:12] <astro76> aman, hmm that worked, I'm surprised you can't ping google.com, try to ping 72.14.207.99
[08:12] <axz> guys whats cmd to change partition name?
[08:12] <arooni_> Flannel, what should i do with the exisitng /root
[08:12] <dkbg> Cuzz: whats your card model?
[08:12] <FordCortina> arman: i haven't used one of those before. have you tried ndiswrapper?
[08:12] <Flannel> arooni_: Why on earth do you have a /root?
[08:12] <arooni_> Flannel, should i get rid of the 10GB parition that used to be for root?
[08:12] <bobbob1016> arooni, you just have to change the mount point to / and /home
[08:12] <Cuzz> dkbg : Hi i would like to install NVidia driver (8600GT XFX). The Restricted Drivers Manager says: "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers.". Is this normal? How can i proceed if i need to fix it? Thanks
[08:12] <pilibeen> ward_: yes im trying to connect to my network...and when it's unsecured, I can't connect. only when it's secured and i have the correct hex key. i'm thinking this is a bug maybe?
[08:12] <arooni_> Flannel, i mean i have a : /
[08:13] <bobbob1016> arooni, if you don't have it format the /home partition, all of your data would be there
[08:13] <Flannel> arooni_: change your old home dir to be a new homedir, don't check the "format", set the other one to /, format that one.  It'll keep the homedir, and install around it
[08:13] <Lichnet> Hi when i connect my camera via usb i can only use a program to import. Isnt there any way to see the files like im seeing my HD? in nautilus? then copy and paste? Theres no mount point for the camera :|
[08:13] <beast> hi, can someone help me resolve this log jam? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35146/
[08:13] <zlx-laptop> im watching a .mov file with totem movie player and people are blue!?
[08:13] <arooni_> ok thats good
[08:13] <ward_> pilibeen, it would surprise me if this is a bug, how do you connect to your wireless network?
[08:13] <dkbg> Cuzz: are you a bot or something? please stop pasting the same question
[08:13] <beast> i think the problem is ttf-opensymbol not being configured
[08:13] <dkbg> Cuzz: thats a sure way to get ignored or scolded
[08:13] <astro76> Lichnet, not for all (or most) cameras
[08:13] <aman> astro76 my request has been timed out again
[08:13] <pilibeen> ward_: i use tool in system>network
[08:14] <parth> i have both gdm and kdm installed
[08:14] <arooni_> Flannel, i have now an extra 63.1 GB of space (cuz i blew up vista).... should i install now and resize my /home partition later?
[08:14] <Lichnet> astro76, its a kodak easyshare c763
[08:14] <Cuzz> Apologies for the last
[08:14] <parth> and while booting it says gdm not starting since its not the default manager
[08:14] <kane77> hi.. how can I make screenlets start at startup? i run some screenlets and check the "start on startup" (or whatever it is called) but when I restart it doesn't start...
[08:14] <parth> and dispalys a message
[08:14] <Flannel> arooni_: you could yeah.  Are they next to each other?
[08:14] <parth> now is that bug
[08:14] <ward_> pilibeen, you also have an icon on the right top of your screen, if u click it you'll get a small list of the networks available
[08:14] <astro76> Lichnet, the easiest thing to do is to take the memory card out and use a card reader
[08:14] <arooni_> Flannel, are what next to each otehr?
[08:14] <frojn1> hello there
[08:14] <ward_> pilibeen, click on you unsecured network there
[08:14] <Lichnet> astro76, i dont have
[08:14] <ward_> pilibeen, then everything should work just fine
[08:14] <astro76> Lichnet, they're cheap ;)
[08:14] <pilibeen> ward_: i'm actually using xfce...
[08:15] <arman> FordCortina: i tried a guide on ubuntuforums.org removing network manager and using ndiswrapper but i don't want to remove network manager
[08:15] <parth> i have both gdm and kdm installed and while booting it says gdm not starting since its not the default manager
[08:15] <frojn1> I wanna make delay menu to 0 like: gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0  In what file do I put this line??
[08:15] <parth> is that a bug
[08:15] <ward_> pilibeen, then i cant help, i never used it
[08:15] <Lichnet> astro76, not here
[08:15] <Flannel> arooni_: what partition is your old vista one?  Or, where would it be, if you partiioned it?
[08:15] <Lichnet> astro76, and im poor
[08:15] <Cuzz> dkbg: Is there anything i can do to fix it?
[08:15] <ctothej> why can't I edit the menus in the toolbar? i cant get to their properties or change order or anything like that.
[08:15] <pilibeen> ward_: oh ok, thnx anyway
[08:15] <dkbg> Cuzz: hmm
[08:15] <ward_> pilibeen, no problem
[08:15] <astro76> Lichnet, then you'll have to use the program to import
[08:15] <arstan> hello world!
[08:15] <frojn1> anyone??
[08:16] <Flannel> pilibeen: I assume it boots kdm instead.  Why would that be a bug?
[08:16] <Flannel> parth,
[08:16] <bullgard4> What is the difference between 'audio mixer chip name' and 'Audio Controller'?
[08:16] <arooni_> Flannel, i dont know... i blew it up and now all it appears is as emptyspace
[08:16] <clearzen_> !grub
[08:16] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:16] <arooni_> free space
[08:16] <frojn1> How can I make faster gnome menus: gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0  where do I have to put this line??
[08:16] <Lichnet> I have a 'Kodak EasyShare C763' camera and when I insert it, it goes to a program to import. Well, this program isnt so good, i cant import the big videos i made, always gives error. I would like to access the sd card like im using a pendrive/hd, so i could just copy and paste. I cant see any mount point for the camera... ;/ How can I?
[08:16] <Flannel> arooni_: right, but where?  in between your two partitions? after them? before them?
[08:16] <aman> astro76 what can i do now
[08:16] <astro76> Lichnet, you CAN'T
[08:16] <arooni_> Flannel, its listed firstr... (FREE SPACE, /, /home, swap)
[08:17] <FordCortina> arman: i've never used network manager... personally i just setup a bunch of preferred networks in wpa_supplicant and just forget about it. it's up to you but editing the odd text file is really not much worse than network manager
[08:17] <astro76> aman, I'm at a loss, the dns server is working, you can ping the gateway, but nothing else
[08:17] <Flannel> arooni_: alright, what you want to do is remove /, make a new / at the beginning of your drive
[08:17] <Flannel> arooni_: and then you can merge the freespace and home later.
[08:17] <arooni_> Flannel, ok,
[08:17] <ward_> tritoch, why don't you recommend OS OCing?
[08:17] <Flannel> arooni_: the freespace needs to be next to your homedir to be joined
[08:17] <arooni_> Flannel, interesting; glad i asked you.  what happens if its not
[08:17] <bauer> howto install desktop on my 6.06.1-server
[08:17] <aman> astro76 is there any solution for it
[08:18] <arman> FordCortina: then what is the line to add for my wpa passowrd?
[08:18] <Flannel> bauer: is this a fresh install?
[08:18] <Ahadiel> bauer, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:18] <arooni_> Flannel, should it be primary paritition?  (for / )
[08:18] <ZmaX> Qualcuno  riuscito a configurare
[08:18] <Flannel> arooni_: yeah.  If it's not next, you'll end up with two partitions that cna't be joined.  No big deal really.  But not optimal
[08:18] <FordCortina> arman: in wpa_supplicant?
[08:19] <bauer> Ahadiel, Flannel   Thx :-)
[08:19] <arman> is wpa_supplicant a package?
[08:19] <arooni_> Flannel, should i join my /home to the 63.1 GB free space now?
[08:19] <arooni_> Flannel, is it ideal to have such a big /home partition?
[08:19] <astro76> aman, I don't know what else to try, but I'm sure there's a solution
[08:19] <arooni_> Flannel, should i have a separate partition for backup for my documents & such?
[08:19] <arman> FordCortina: is wpa_supplicant a package?
[08:19] <Filthpig> hi, I'm trying to mod gnome to look like macosx, and I'm trying to use gDesklets for the docker, but something is not right there
[08:19] <FordCortina> arman: yes you can get it through apt-get, et al
[08:19] <Filthpig> and the tutorials from the gdesklets page is unavailable
[08:20] <Flannel> arooni_: I guess if you wanted to you could.  But I don't really see a reason for it.  A big home lets you have a lot of stuff.
[08:20] <arman> thanks :)
[08:20] <FordCortina> arman: but you still need drivers that work
[08:20] <aman> astro76 so tell me what can i do how i'll get that solution
[08:20] <arooni_> Flannel, well i'm not sure what else to do with my disk space
[08:20] <frojn1> can ANYONE tell me how to make faster gnome menus. Where do I have to put this line: gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0   ????????
[08:20] <FordCortina> arman: wpa_supplicant only controls what your card connects to and the crypto
[08:20] <teenbeat2007_lap> help need a good working sip client to do voipbuster network
[08:20] <beast> no on knows how to solve this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35146/   :(
[08:20] <ZmaX> Anyone set up
[08:20] <ZmaX> Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
[08:20] <Flannel> arooni_: I'm not sure you can join your home with your freespace right now. (without reformatting)

[08:20] <astro76> aman, sorry as I said I don't know what else to try
[08:20] <arman> FordCortina: ndiswrapper drivers or binary linux drivers?
[08:21] <arooni_> Flannel, so you reccomend not doing it now?
[08:21] <aman> astro76 its ok sir u tried ur best
[08:21] <BrendanW> How do I remove the drive icons from my desktop?
[08:21] <bullgard4> What is the role or function of 'IEC958' in AlsaMixer?
[08:21] <aman> astro76 thank u sir ;-)
[08:21] <Flannel> arooni_: I wouldnt, no.  I'm not sure the partition in the installer knows what its doing with copying/etc.
[08:22] <upgrdman> is there a way to change the ip of my dns server?
[08:22] <upgrdman> check*
[08:22] <astro76> aman, when you ask for help again make sure you mention the fact that you have a working nameserver, but still can't access out
[08:22] <Jahman> hi
[08:22] <FordCortina> arman: probably the windoze drivers through ndiswrapper are best
[08:23] <FordCortina> arman: if the linux drivers are binary only then they probably won't play nicely with wpa_supplicant (they would need to support the wireless stack you were mentioning earlier)
[08:23] <dkbg> Cuzz: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=531813#post3231734
[08:24] <dkbg> Cuzz: I'm not sure why the restricted manager is telling you that you don't need them
[08:24] <arman> what if i upgrade my kernel?
[08:24] <dkbg> Cuzz: so just bypass it and install them manually
[08:24] <arman> does it make anything worse?
[08:24] <FordCortina> arman: that won't help
[08:24] <arman> pfff :(
[08:25] <dkbg> Cuzz: the nvidia-glx-new package in the ubuntu repositories is the nvidia proprietary driver, its a little older than the latest one but installing the driver from nvidia is a little more complicated
[08:25] <FordCortina> arman: have you found a howto using ndiswrapper?
[08:25] <homas> hello
[08:25] <dkbg> Cuzz: you get any of that?

[08:28] <kituki> When I use mplayer to play an mms stream, it
[08:28] <kituki> quits between segments. Is there a good way
[08:28] <kituki> to keep it going to the next clip?
[08:28] <kituki> unfortunately starting the playlist over again
[08:28] <kituki> rather than playing the next item in the playlist.
[08:28] <Flannel> !enter | kituki
[08:28] <ubotu> kituki: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:28] <dkbg> arman: I think that will require that he recompile the kernel module with every kernel update though
[08:29] <kituki> sorrt Flannel
[08:29] <Cuzz> arman: did you also get the "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers." message?
[08:29] <kituki> sorry Flannel
[08:29] <dkbg> arman: so it will suddenly stop working if a new ubuntu kernel comes out
[08:29] <kituki> is there a way play mms playlist in ubuntu
[08:30] <dstadulis_> sorry did I just spam the channel?
[08:30] <Nutubuntu> In an strace output file of a crashing browser, the last chunk of stuff that seems to be happening is an attempt to open init.d and the file not being found. Might this be why the browser is crashing?
[08:30] <Yarcanox> nope
[08:30] <Yarcanox> you didnt dstadulis_
[08:30] <dstadulis_> k thanks
[08:30] <Cuzz> dkbg: if it happens, can revert back to the standard drivers if it happens and then fix it when it does happen?
[08:30] <arman> Cuzz: yes and also dkbg is true when you make kernel update to your ubuntu you will install the driver again
[08:30] <ctothej> err, I didnt have alacarte installed!

[08:32] <homas> scam: and it goes back to 1600x1200
[08:32] <homas> scam: any ideas what is happening on my machine?
[08:33] <arman> dkbg: can you tell me how to update my kernel? i downloaded 2.6.22.5
[08:33] <PriceChild> arman, what's wrong with the ubuntu kernel?
[08:33] <PriceChild> !highno | arman
[08:33] <ubotu> arman: 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.
[08:33] <scam> homas, you can manually edit your xorg.conf
[08:33] <scam> and just take out the 1200X1600 values
[08:33] <moyer> can somone help me disable my onboard soundcard by blacklisting it
[08:33] <moyer> ?

[08:37] <Nutubuntu> In an strace output file of a crashing browser, the last chunk of stuff that seems to be happening is an attempt to open init.d and the file or directory not being found. Might this be why the browser is crashing?

[08:38] <ra12q> hi all -- running Gutsy on a stock kernel (2.6.22-9-generic).  I installed the NVIDIA binary drivers from the nvidia website, and for whatever reason, each time I reboot my machine, I have to reinstall those drivers because the nvidia ones no longer exist.  i had the same problem at work and fixed it (I think!) by upgrading the kernel.  Doing this here though hasn't helped.  Any one got any ideas what causes it.
[08:38] <hc-> I have universe enabled.

[08:40] <juri245_> is there a way to push through and update x11 fonts.
[08:40] <BrendanW> I can't even go into menus while playing videos or it glitches terribly.
[08:40] <bethany> you need to generate a certificate enable ssl support and configure your ssl options

[08:40] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[08:42] <Jammerwoch> I am having a problem specifying a static (non-DHCP) IP address for my 7.04 box.  I set it in System->Admin->Network, and it claims it's at IP 192.168.1.11 (what I want it to be), but then I go to a console and type ifconfig and I see that it's at 192.168.1.103 (DHCP-assigned).  I can confirm from the router side that it's getting that address via DHCP.  What gives?
[08:43] <homas> scam: it is there
[08:43] <Pretoriab> rambo3: whats the website ?
[08:43] <scam> homas,  whats the link to it.. so i can read it

[08:44] <Jammerwoch> whatever, i know the router is acting as a dhcp server, as it should...but my linux box should only take a dhcp-assigned address if i tell it to.  if i tell it that i want a static ip, it should respect that.

[08:45] <whatever> jammer perhaps your router doesnt accept static IPs, or the static IP you specify
[08:45] <astro76> Jammerwoch, yeah it definitely should work... though I usually set the router dhcp to hand out "static IPs" by MAC address, most routers can do it and it's nice to control everything from one place
[08:45] <whatever> jammer: doesnt sound like it though :P
[08:46] <Jammerwoch> -astro76 yeah, i would prefer that approach, but my router is stupid...won't do it :(

[09:01] <ferric84> genefitz: yeah, thats where I started from.  I just don't understand why the partition option #1 will not let me shrink my hda

[09:01] <Pici> Bucketface: We were all new users once.
[09:01] <Bucketface> Of course.

[09:02] <Bucketface> I nearly cried blood when it was all like "LOL NOT GONNA WORK"
[09:02] <BrendanW> And Bucketface, the plugins that you install don't actually have any effect unless you turn them on. Thats the only reason I downloaded them.
[09:02] <m12> hi all
[09:02] <Bucketface> Yeh
[09:02] <Bucketface> ;d
[09:02] <Bucketface> Well, I can bother someone else if I need to!
[09:03] <Bucketface> haha

[09:03] <m12> how do i uninstall compiled package ?
[09:03] <rexy_> there's a good thread about wpa on the forums too, let me dig it up
[09:03] <mario> hello enyonr can i play pc games on ubuntu

[09:04] <mario> yes rexy ca i play them
[09:04] <Thursty> hi i need a little help installing ubuntu
[09:04] <CoasterMaster> mario: read the private message from ubotu
[09:04] <m12> bucketface, says package not found
[09:04] <CoasterMaster> Thursty: ok, what's going on?
[09:04] <Bucketface> D;
[09:04] <Bucketface> It was a wild guess
[09:05] <m12> hehe
[09:05] <Bucketface> what about rmmod -rf direcory?
[09:05] <Dunas> I'm having trouble finding a working Ubuntu DOOM engine in Feisty, any recommendations?  Ubuntu-offtopic wasn't offering me any help. :x
[09:05] <Thursty> ok well i figured out how to partition in a way that will let my computer recognize all of my HD space (was having error 18) but now it just quits in the middle of install and makes a /target and /target /boot folders on the desktop
[09:06] <CoasterMaster> Thursty: how is your drive partitioned?
[09:06] <Thursty> i clicked on manual during install and made a primary /boot 8mb partition at beginning
[09:06] <Bucketface> Hmm
[09:06] <Thursty> and then a 1546 swap
[09:06] <Bucketface> Amarok still isn't working.
[09:07] <Bucketface> Anyone know how to fix it?
[09:07] <GMWeezel> im looking for a program to draw diagrams of chemical bonds (mostly organic); suggestions?
[09:07] <Thursty> and the rest was put in logical / partition
[09:07] <Thursty> but it keeps renaming thte /boot and / for some reason to /media/something
[09:07] <Flannel> Thursty: 8mb won't be enough for /boot
[09:07] <Thursty> how much do i need?
[09:08] <Flannel> 100 would probably be fine.  Mine's 27M at the moment, with two kernels.
[09:08] <mario> is their a special manual for ubuntu
[09:08] <mario> to learn more
[09:08] <Flannel> mario: help.ubuntu.com
[09:08] <m12> 200mb
[09:08] <SeveredCross> Bleh.
[09:08] <genefitz> ferric84: I am trying to find a freeware solution to resize your partition, since it seems that sometimes gparted does have an issue with NTFS partition shrinking
[09:08] <SeveredCross> Firestarter is a bit too restrictive.
[09:09] <mario> but to learn alot more
[09:09] <CoasterMaster> Thursty: that's because it has to mount those partitions to write to them
[09:09] <SeveredCross> It drops nearly every packet...Not good for BitTorrent and stuff.
[09:10] <template_editor>    ?
[09:10] <SystemOverload> Can someone help me configure dmix?
[09:10] <Q_Continuum> So - what automated, secure backup solutions exist within Ubuntu?
[09:10] <Thursty> CoasterMaster, it stops in the middle of the install and just doesn't do anything, takes me to desktop with /target and /target /boot folders

[09:14] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:14] <genefitz> Kenvyro, bring up your terminal and type in (or copy and paste) sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:14] <BrendanW> Bucketface:  Mind If I message you? I can help you out with that.
[09:14] <Bucketface> yeh
[09:15] <Bucketface> k

[09:16] <Puppy_> I found this really cool program, but it only works in windows. I don't want to buy it and find out that it does not install in wine. So is there an alternative to Satellite Tv On PC Elite? It is a legal program that you watch tv on your computer through the Internet (not through a pc tuner).
[09:16] <ahmadsaifan> V
[09:16] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:16] <BrendanW> Oh, well I can just do it here anyway.
[09:16] <Scr1pt> anyone here has experience with ventrilo on ubuntu ?
[09:16] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:16] <Bucketface> Okay.
[09:16] <PriceChild> Puppy_, i doubt it...
[09:16] <BrendanW> Use Synaptic Package Manager and search for "gaim"
[09:16] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:16] <Bucketface> I did.
[09:16] <PriceChild> Puppy_, you'll need to pay as hosting live streaming tv is expensive
[09:16] <Bucketface> And I said remove all
[09:16] <BrendanW> Then mark anything with "gaim" to Mark for Removal.
[09:16] <Puppy_> PriceChild: I am ok with paying. :)
[09:16] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:16] <Bucketface> but then I tried the installer again and it said "clashes with gaim data"
[09:17] <BrendanW> Are you sure you marked everything with gaim in it for deletion?
[09:17] <BrendanW> Err, removal rather.
[09:17] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?
[09:17] <ahmadsaifan> OK, i have a s-video wire that i can hook up my laptop to the TV, I've done it before on windows, but how can i do it on ubuntu?

[09:17] <pigskin> Hi all
[09:17] <Bucketface> There was no gaim data thing in there
[09:17] <PriceChild> ahmadsaifan, please stop repeating like that.
[09:17] <gordonjcp> !repeat | ahmadsaifan

[09:17] <Bucketface> previously I had both of them on my computer at once.
[09:18] <gordonjcp> ahmadsaifan: have you tried it?
[09:18] <Puppy_> PriceChild: but I guess there still would not be a program to do that, even if I paid?
[09:18] <BrendanW> I couldn't get it to work with GAIM on my system.
[09:18] <BrendanW> Bucketface: Hmph. I'm stumped.
[09:18] <Bucketface> Yeh.
[09:18] <Bucketface> Well, I can't remember who linked me the last time
[09:18] <PriceChild> Puppy_, I haven't a clue sorry :) I'm just saying that no-one could give that service for free.

[09:22] <Scr1pt> bucketface if u run normal ubuntu its gnome desktop while amarok is made for kde right?
[09:23] <salah> any idea why not any vcd plays? neither in clv, mplayer, totem or any other players. the codecs are installed, I can play mp3, watch avi/mpeg video, etc but simply not VCD
[09:23] <Bucketface> Uh, it was working before :S

[09:23] <Scr1pt> bucketface, i think it has something to do with missing kde libaries
[09:23] <salah> there is nothing wrong with the vcds, they work fine in the player and windows...
[09:24] <Bucketface> How do I get those in then?

[09:25] <T-Connect> How I run rpm from command?
[09:25] <kitche> ahmadsaifan, not sure what you mean by monitor management since xorg takes care of it
[09:25] <T-Connect> Super user.
[09:25] <ahmadsaifan> what is xorg
[09:25] <Scr1pt> bucketface if u install the programm using the ad/remove function its suposed to auto install the libaries with it
[09:25] <BrendanW> Does anybody know how I can hide the drive icons on my desktop?
[09:25] <macd> T-Connect, why are you using rpm on a ubuntu system?
[09:25] <Bucketface> That's what I did.
[09:25] <T-Connect> Yep 7.04
[09:25] <kitche> BrendanW, it's in gconf-editor

[09:28] <ahmadsaifan> where can i access xorg's configuration?
[09:28] <T-Connect> I try that.
[09:28] <macd> T-Connect, so no, you'll need to find a 3rd party repo (not really supported) or build it form source.
[09:28] <Scr1pt> bucketface, in the time u had it workin , did u use it w/ ur ipod ? cuz im really wondering how im gonna use my ipod once my windows pc is going to my sissy
[09:28] <tux2> in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:28] <T-Connect> I try to make one and it fail.
[09:28] <ivx> ahmadsaifan, what kind of gfx card you got?
[09:28] <T-Connect> Both ways fail.
[09:28] <ahmadsaifan> i dunno
[09:28] <Bucketface> I don't own an ipod
[09:29] <macd> T-Connect, well you should get with the vmware people and look for a solution to the failed build

[09:29] <aman> astro76 i think i have to install driver in linux
[09:29] <kitche> Bucketface, sudo apt-get install amarok should have installed the deps also
[09:29] <Adlai> Ravenndude`: open up nautilus and click on the filesystem
[09:29] <ahmadsaifan> ahhh im confused
[09:29] <T-Connect> I don't think they will be making a new version from deb.

[09:32] <genefitz> macd: it is the only way I have ever known to convert .rpm to .deb.
[09:32] <BrendanW> I'm trying to sift through gconf-editor; and can't find the option to disable drives. I've narrowed it down to Desktop > Gnome (but can't get any further than that)
[09:32] <ubuntufan> just a second
[09:32] <[manas] > i got kworld tv tuner how can i intall it on ubuntu??????/
[09:32] <macd> genefitz, if completely ignore dependancies
[09:32] <aman> DrClaw can u solve my problem
[09:32] <super61> godzirra: doing it know
[09:32] <super61> now*
[09:32] <LucianIndy> I just downloaded and compiled jEdit but how do I install the java application for access from the gnome applications menu?
[09:32] <kitche> Bucketface, might be due to your audio device being used already 167 device is hard to tell :)
[09:32] <aman> DrClaw: can u solve my problem
[09:32] <macd> genefitz, if you want a deb you build it not try to repackage rpm.
[09:32] <Bucketface> What do you mean, being used already?
[09:33] <Bucketface> Also, the problem is, if I try to play anything, it just freezes! And I do have mp3 codec on here now D;
[09:33] <godzirra> Anyone?
[09:33] <ubuntufan> The following packages have unresolvable dependencies. Make sure that all required repositories are added and enabled in the preferences.
[09:33] <genefitz> macd: don't get me wrong, I am never up for doing that, I don't personally use it, I will go from source if need be. Just noting that the option is there...
[09:33] <ubuntufan> and in a white text box : kdebase-bin
[09:33] <macd> yeah it is an option, but whew its not safe
[09:34] <nox-Hand> What would people recommend for a fullscreen media centre app with keyboard-only controls (preferably not many keys)
[09:34] <amonkey> i'm trying to make a link in my /var/www/ folder to another folder so that it's visible, and it works when i try folders in /media/whatever but not to anything in my home folder. whats up?
[09:34] <Scr1pt> bucketface, i just installed amarock and it seems to work fine :S
[09:34] <genefitz> macd: I agree with you 100% cross platforming is never safe.
[09:35] <Bucketface> Yeh
[09:35] <Bucketface> It's something to do with meD:
[09:35] <Bucketface> Well not me
[09:35] <Bucketface> but the computer
[09:35] <macd> yeah I didnt want to come over as contradictory, just wanted it to be known it wasnt safe
[09:35] <[manas] > i got kworld tv tuner how can i intall it on ubuntu??????/
[09:36] <godzirra> Hey guys.  I've edited my xorg.conf, and the only modes I have listed are 1440x900, but X is still booting up to 1024x768.  how do I fix it?
[09:36] <super61> godzirra: it forund curopt files reburn it?
[09:36] <kitche> Bucketface,  http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=7964.0;topicseen should fix it
[09:36] <[manas] > i got kworld tv tuner how can i intall it on ubuntu??????/
[09:36] <super61> or download another one?
[09:36] <ckin2001> @ godzirra - look at /var/log/(xorg file)
[09:36] <Bucketface> Thanks
[09:36] <macd> !wide
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wide - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <kitche> Bucketface, it deals witht he wacom drivers int he xorg.conf but no clue why amarok will fail just due to those
[09:36] <[manas] > i got kworld tv tuner how can i intall it on ubuntu??????/
[09:37] <godzirra> super61: google for how to check the md5sum of the iso, to make sure it downloaded correctly.  Or if you're lazy, just reburn it and  hope the iso download worked ok.
[09:37] <genefitz> godzirra: did you change the native resolution and the resolution options to the highest at 1440 x 900?
[09:37] <Adlai> [manas] : you only need one question mark, I think
[09:37] <godzirra> genefitz: In my xorg.conf, the only mode -listed- is 1440x900
[09:37] <godzirra> For 16 and 24 bit color depths.
[09:37] <Bucketface> okay
[09:37] <macd> godzirra, you need to add some custom modlines to your xorg config, what model gfx chipset do you run
[09:37] <Ududu> godzirra: what is your graph card?
[09:37] <genefitz> godzirra, have you tried running sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ?
[09:37] <[manas] > Adlai: ok where can i find drivers for my tv tuner
[09:38] <ckin2001> godzirra:have you checked the log files?
[09:38] <godzirra> genefitz: Yes.
[09:38] <godzirra> Ududu: something generic.
[09:38] <genefitz> godzirra: and that didn't resolve the issue?
[09:38] <macd> godzirra, somethuing generic wont help us solve your problem, how about doing 'lspci' and telling us :)
[09:38] <Ravenndude`> Sound on my Desktop (both onboard AMD768 and Sound Fusion CS46xx) stopped working the other day. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?
[09:38] <godzirra> genefitz: Nope.
[09:38] <godzirra> ckin2001: Yes.  I see nothing out of the ordinary.
[09:39] <Ududu> godzirra: so its not either intel, nvidia or ati?
[09:39] <mattg> how do i figure out what the workgroup i am in is?
[09:39] <genefitz> godzirra, have you tried a full recon figure using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:39] <godzirra> geforce 6100.
[09:39] <godzirra> nvidia.
[09:39] <ckin2001> I had the same trouble the other day - it was having trouble detecting my monitor correctly
[09:39] <recon> genefitz: what?
[09:39] <godzirra> genefitz: not yet.
[09:39] <macd> godzirra, and do you use nv, or nvidia driver?
[09:39] <recon> genefitz: oh, never mind.
[09:39] <mattg> how do i figure out what the workgroup i am in is, genefitz
[09:39] <godzirra> vesa.
[09:39] <macd> godzirra, I dont think vesa will support widescreen
[09:39] <genefitz> recon, to fix my resolution in ubuntu I had to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:39] <godzirra> Ahhh...
[09:39] <godzirra> trying it with nv now.
[09:40] <Ududu> godzirra: go to nvidia.com and get the 6* series driver
[09:40] <genefitz> My acer al1916w was not very friendly with Ubuntu
[09:40] <kris222324> I have a kubuntu KDE ROX !!11
[09:40] <godzirra> wow.. look at that.
[09:40] <macd> unless your a purist you'll get the best performance and features from the NVIDIA blob
[09:40] <Ududu> its the most compatible (/D) driver you can get
[09:40] <godzirra> Use the right driver and it works.
[09:40] <Ududu> (3D)
[09:40] <godzirra> macd: I don't really care about super duper drivers.  I just want 1440x900.
[09:40] <godzirra> its a server.  I rarely use X on it at all.
[09:40] <macd> godzirra, gotcha.
[09:40] <godzirra> Thanks guys ;)
[09:40] <godzirra> I appreciate the help.
[09:41] <Kenvyro> Oh boy, never thought it would be all so hard... ^^ so uh, how do i get my nvidia drivers to work... I tried reading the guide on the forum, but it has somehow nothin to do with nvidia drivers
[09:41] <genefitz> matt, for the most, in reconfigure, you leave everything alone, enter through until you get to the video driver, and monitor
[09:41] <genefitz> when choosing resolution, use the medium option, it should give you 1440 x 900 (100hz)
[09:42] <genefitz> In the end, it well only give what your monitor allows
[09:42] <Sretsnom> How do I attach a secondary screen to my laptop? And turn off my laptop screen.
[09:42] <clearzen_> Kenvyro: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx; gksu gedit /etc/X11/Xorg.conf then change the driver from via to nvidia
[09:42] <genefitz> mattg, are you part of a network?
[09:42] <T-Connect> Hmmm deb is screwup.
[09:42] <T-Connect> XD
[09:42] <T-Connect> Least I got the files.
[09:43] <whta> is there any way to keep my gdesklets dock from disappearing when I click the desktop button (with beryl running, it doesnt hide in a normal session)
[09:43] <mattg> genefitz:  i have no idea.  just wireless from the router
[09:43] <macd> clearzen_ its worth mentioning nvidia-glx and -glix-legacy as well
[09:43] <Kenvyro> clearzen_ I did it and now Xorg.conf opened up and well ... its empty
[09:43] <IntuitiveNipple> With Feisty, Gnome, all the windows have decided not to bother with their title-bar, borders, and system menu. Anyone know the setting in gconf to get them back!?
[09:43] <genefitz> mattg: do you have a wireless connection now? I mean, is the net running on the computer?
[09:43] <mattg> yes, genefitz
[09:43] <clearzen_> oh it's xorg.conf
[09:44] <macd> IntuitiveNipple, for a quick fix 'metacity --replace'
[09:44] <charles> Bleh
[09:44] <genefitz> mattg: if you are not using a wireless networking setup, you should not need a workgroup.
[09:44] <Kenvyro> So I went on nvidia.com dloaded the drivers for linux x64 and now its on my desktop >.< Doubleclicking it gives me some kinda error... ^
[09:44] <IntuitiveNipple> macd: does that infer metacity options might be the place to look?
[09:44] <mattg> i am using wireless, genefitz
[09:45] <macd> IntuitiveNipple, metacity is the window manager, which you dont seem to have running
[09:45] <salah> any idea why no players play VCD?
[09:45] <genefitz> mattg, if you are getting internet already, you shouldn't need to enter a workgroup.
[09:45] <macd> out of the box it should be, but if youve been installing compiz it may have messed something up
[09:45] <IntuitiveNipple> macd: And thinking about... I've got desktop-effects in operation (aka Compiz) would that have a bearing on this?
[09:45] <genefitz> that would be more for connection to networked computers
[09:45] <mattg> i need to know for my virtual pc. genefitz
[09:45] <chymera> join #desktop-effects
[09:45] <chymera> hmmmm#
[09:45] <macd> if you have desktop-effects on and no borders that means emerald isnt running
[09:46] <macd> IntuitiveNipple, so emerald --replace :)
[09:46] <genefitz> oh, mattg. I see... That is a horse of a different color, let me look that info up..
[09:46] <macd> or -replace I cant recall atm
[09:46] <Bucketface> kitche:
[09:46] <LucianIndy> macd: double dash
[09:46] <Bucketface> kitche: I'll need some guidance on that kubuntu webpage D:?
[09:46] <mattg> okay, im using virtualbox, genefitz.  not sure how the "shared folders" works with it
[09:46] <IntuitiveNipple> macd: I'm trying to find the setting to control this rather than just run the command - I'm alpha-testing between Feisty and Gutsy with the same /home :)
[09:47] <gplgeek> Some great work being put into ubuntu/kubuntu recently.
[09:47] <Bucketface> Oh I think i get it
[09:47] <macd> IntuitiveNipple, you can add it to the session, by going to system --> prefs --> sessions
[09:47] <chymera> anyone know what's up with compiz?
[09:47] <macd> then click new, add the complete command+ path
[09:47] <gplgeek> compiz is somewhat pointless at the moment
[09:48] <macd> chymera, what do you mean whats up with compiz?
[09:48] <kitche> Bucketface,  gksu gedt /etc/X11/xorg.conf will probably be easier for you
[09:48] <whta> Is there any way to change the delay for docks that auto-hide?
[09:48] <chymera> well it seems to give me and a lot of ppl on the forum a lot of trouble
[09:48] <whta> i mean panels.
[09:48] <macd> chymera, compiz isnt stable software, especially when chances are your running the svn repo
[09:48] <Bucketface> Huh?
[09:49] <greg> anybody have any experience with gnucash?
[09:49] <Bucketface> gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:49] <chymera> im on the trevino repo or however its called
[09:49] <Bucketface> ?
[09:49] <chymera> ...
[09:49] <chymera> but it worked kinda flawless for the past month :-/
[09:49] <IntuitiveNipple> macd: Thanks... metacity --replace worked and reported "Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "toggle_shaded"" so I guess Gutsy is adding things into the configuration
[09:49] <kitche> Bucketface, it open gedit so you can edit xorg.conf graphically and be able to search for those lines
[09:49] <Bucketface> I had that open ;d
[09:50] <qaws> hi, how can I downgrade wine pls?
[09:50] <T-Connect> Alien is broken. :(
[09:50] <salah> anyone got vcds to work with ubuntu 7.04?
[09:50] <macd> chymera, Im sure the people in #ubuntu-effects know a bit more of the specifics
[09:50] <macd> T-Connect, I tried to tell you Alien was not a good choice.
[09:50] <chymera> 10x for the tipp
[09:50] <T-Connect> Oh ok
[09:50] <Bucketface> Kitche, My lines are a little different though D;
[09:50] <T-Connect> I will removed it then.
[09:51] <kitche> Bucketface, the /dev/wacom lines are different?
[09:51] <lacostej> is this the right channel to talk about 7.10/gutsy ?
[09:51] <macd> T-Connect, its possible you can find someone to build vmware-player 2.x for you, or find someone that already has (i.e. try out google)
[09:51] <mp3guy> I'm getting a laptop soon with vista on it, will I be able to non destructively repartition the drive to install ubuntu onto it, allowing a dual boot with the preinstalled vista?
[09:51] <macd> lacostej, no #ubuntu+1
[09:51] <obf213> whats the keyboard command to open terminal?
[09:51] <TheSaint> hi guys. what are the minimum hw requirements for Ubuntu 7 Desktop/Server edition?
[09:52] <available> salah try this http://www.thanhsiang.org/faqing/node/56
[09:52] <Bucketface> Well, they aren't all in that order...
[09:52] <kitche> Bucketface, it does matter what order they are in just uncomment the lines it tells you to
[09:52] <genefitz> mattg: I don't want to lie to you, and I don't know much about Virtual box. all I can do is direct you to their wiki. It may have the answers you are seeking http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Technical_documentation
[09:52] <T-Connect> VMware-player-2.0.0-45731.i386.deb - did not match any documents. I search on google.
[09:53] <nnreyn> hey has anybody had the problem where a program will lock up and you have to terminate it, then afterwards it won't start up anymore
[09:53] <macd> T-Connect, you cant assume that is the name for it
[09:53] <mattg> okay, genefitz, im tryin stuff out
[09:53] <macd> you just need to search on vmware-player 2 on ubuntu
[09:53] <genefitz> mattg, I figure you may want to try mshome or "workgroup" see if one of those may do the trick
[09:53] <salah> available, I have tried that, not working
[09:53] <AdamNation> anybody had any luck getting the linksys WMP54G wlan card to work with feisty? I've found a lot of posts in the forums on it, but I'm having a hard time completing the suggestions 'cuz I'm a freakin' n00b ;-)
[09:54] <mattg> kk
[09:54] <Bucketface> oka
[09:54] <Bucketface> y
[09:54] <Kenvyro> how do I remove the whole password prompting
[09:54] <available> salah then i dont know
[09:55] <nnreyn> how do i recover programs which i had to terminate and therefore don't work anymore
[09:55] <TheSaint> what are the minimum hw requirements for Ubuntu 7 Desktop/Server edition?
[09:55] <salah> it can't be that hard? everything else is working, but I can't get only vcds working on any ubuntu machine here...
[09:55] <macd> Kenvy you mean when it prompts you for a password in the GUI ?
[09:55] <kenvy> macd yes
[09:55] <T-Connect> Well I will just use xp without the VMware Player.
[09:56] <available> salah try this sudo apt-get install vcdtools
[09:56] <available> sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[09:56] <available> sudo apt-get install libxine-main1
[09:56] <furthur> xD
[09:56] <|FrOst|> :D
[09:56] <AdamNation> i want to try to install ndiswrapper, but I don't have a net connx at all so I downloaded the tar and dropped it onto a thumb drive, but I don't know how to proceed from there..... any assistance would be greatly appreciated
[09:56] <macd> kenvy, you realize if you do that, you loose a level of security right?
[09:56] <salah> available, it is installed
[09:56] <Bucketface> Kitche, I did that.
[09:56] <Bucketface> So will amarok work properly now?/
[09:57] <rawr> oi
[09:57] <kitche> Bucketface, probably have to restart X
[09:57] <kenvy> im using linux and with AV installed I can't be less secure than with windows
[09:57] <available> well im stuck then salah sorry
[09:57] <macd> kenvy, its more for your protection rather than linuxs'
[09:57] <rawr> hey
[09:57] <nnreyn> can someone help me with my problem
[09:57] <rawr> can somebody help me?
[09:57] <TheSaint> what are the minimum hw requirements for Ubuntu 7 Desktop/Server edition?
[09:57] <rawr> damn he asked first lol
[09:57] <macd> kenvy, but you can, just enable the root account and use it.
[09:57] <macd> !root
[09:57] <Bucketface> By restart x you mean ctrlaltbackspace :D?
[09:57] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:58] <genefitz> nnreyn, what problem?
[09:58] <gerald> salut
[09:58] <macd> !root > kenvy
[09:58] <gerald> hi
[09:58] <kenvy> macd in terminal?
[09:58] <AdamNation> lol @ ubotu   you sound like the little buddhist kid from the matrix ;-)
[09:58] <rawr> ok i compeletely reformatted my drive, and i need an operating system, how do i install Ubuntu with out simply downloading it?
[09:58] <nnreyn> I have a couple of programs which i use, they locked up so i terminated them after too long a period, now they don't work and reinstalls don't bring them back either. i'm confused
[09:58] <hagar> hi all. Recently im getting signal 11 while playing tce & et.. regnum online crashes with sigsegv (signal 11) i tryied doom3 crashed too with segmentation error. Even my glxgears crushes my x server :| anybody knows why?
[09:58] <DagonIT> I have Kubuntu 64 I apparently I broke adept -- how do I fix it?
[09:58] <macd> kenvy, the link tells you howto enable the root account, then you simply login like normal
[09:59] <kenvy> thank you very much
[09:59] <ian6> ... so I've got a feisty install where Xorg crashes every time I start it... but only if I have an .xinitrc. Doesn't matter if it's empty, doesn't matter if everything's commented out. If it's there, Xorg crashes. If it's not, Xorg starts.
[09:59] <obf213> hey whats the keyboard short cut to open terminal?
[09:59] <ian6> does anyone have any ideas?
[09:59] <nnreyn> obf213 CTRLSHIFT F1
[10:00] <nnreyn> i believe
[10:00] <Adlai> DagonIT: #kubuntu
[10:00] <DagonIT> thanks
[10:00] <TheSaint> what are the minimum hw requirements for Ubuntu 7 Desktop/Server edition?
[10:00] <BrendanW> Luckily I found out where the option to Hide Removable Drive Icons from my desktop.
[10:01] <nnreyn> so genefitz any ideas
[10:01] <obf213> nnreyn that opens help center -_-
[10:01] <BrendanW> apps \ nautilus \ desktop \ - volumes_visible: uncheck
[10:01] <rexy_> TheSaint, it runs on pretty much anything from this century for sure, and probably older too
[10:01] <rexy_> but the short answer is, depends on what you want to do with it
[10:02] <Q_Continuum> "The minimum memory requirement for Ubuntu 7.04 is 256MB of memory. With only the minimum amount of memory available, the installation process will take longer than normal, but will complete successfully, and the system will perform adequately once installed."
[10:02] <Q_Continuum> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704
[10:02] <Q_Continuum> I know I've seen 500MHz and 64MB listed for the Server version, if you're not going to be running a GUI on it.
[10:02] <genefitz> nnreyn, no, sorry, I am not sure. I would try checking ubuntu forums. I have been looking around, and haven't found a plausible solution
[10:02] <Adlai> TheSaint: if it's really old hardware, you should go with the alternate install disc
[10:02] <Adlai> but it should run on most things you can scrounge up to throw at it
[10:03] <AdamNation> obj it's CTRL-ALT-F1 through F6 to open virtual terminals.... to open the windowed terminal, you might have to configure a keyboard shortcut in System->Prefs->Keyboard shortctus
[10:03] <AdamNation> obf rather
[10:03] <shawtooth> I'm having a bit of difficulty changing my wireless MAC address, would anyone be willing to help me?  I can change the address of my wireless (ath0) using either the "hw ether" argument, or by specifying it in /etc/network/interfaces and restarting the network, but it does not alter the mac address of wifi0, and thus wireless stops working...
[10:04] <hagar>  hi all. Recently im getting signal 11 while playing tce & et.. regnum online crashes with sigsegv (signal 11) i tryied doom3 crashed too with segmentation error. Even my glxgears crushes my x server :| anybody knows why?
[10:04] <shawtooth> Is there some way to change the mac address known by wifi0?
[10:04] <qaws> hi, can anyone help me pls with downgrading wine (new version 9.44 doesnt go) - can you help me pls?
[10:04] <Adlai> hagar: make sure you're using the correct drivers for your card
[10:05] <brill> hello
[10:05] <leaf0> Hi
[10:05] <Adlai> and insure that you get nice looking messages from `glxinfo | grep -i render`
[10:05] <TheSaint> Adlai: thank you for the reply. I'm going to install onto a P3 800 Mhz w/ 512 MB RAM. is it ok even for Server edition?
[10:05] <Adlai> TheSaint: yeah that'll be fine
[10:05] <gplgeek> qaws, I'd just apt-get remove wine, then download the source snapshot and compile it yourself
[10:05] <AdamNation> this is probably pretty simple, but how can I install ndiswrapper from a tar instead of using apt-get? I need to install new network drivers before I can download packages
[10:05] <qaws> OK, I will try it - thx
[10:06] <hagar> Im using nvidia restricted evrything used to work fine, its broken recently after some system updates i thing
[10:06] <gplgeek> there's info on how to do that even in the wine tarball itself
[10:06] <leaf0> There seems to be some difficulty installing Ubuntu on an HP e-Vectra
[10:06] <kitche> !compile AdamNation
[10:06] <AdamNation> but where should I drop the tar in the first place?
[10:06] <kitche> !compiling | AdamNation
[10:06] <ubotu> AdamNation: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[10:06] <rexy_> TheSaint, that should work fine
[10:06] <Adlai> AdamNation: doesn't matter; somewhere readable
[10:06] <kitche> AdamNation, your home directory doesn't matter where the tar is
[10:07] <AdamNation> ok thanks

[10:07] <AdamNation> it says it needs the kernel or linux header files in the docs... and when I try compiling, I get a bunch of errors.... I assume those headers didn't come standard with my dist?

[10:10] <ubuntufan> hello again, i have another problem, why can't i set a bigger display resolution than 1024
[10:10] <chris_> how do i enable more then 2 desktops?
[10:10] <ubuntufan> i have ATI RADEON 9250 .. but here it says i have 9200
[10:10] <gplgeek> Anyone know how to get enemy-territory sound working, been through the forums tried the tricks.
[10:10] <rexy_> probably the same chiptype ubuntufan
[10:10] <AnRkey> how do i allow a user to use sudo?
[10:10] <dezelin> ubuntufan, you have to enable other resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:11] <ubuntufan> mcedit ?
[10:11] <logreeval> Hi, my wireless card has been working well, but now after maybe 2 months, just today it turned off while suspended and i cant get it to turn back on using the Fn +wireless button, its a dell e1405 laptop, any ideas?, i have to restart to get it to turn on
[10:11] <dezelin> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:11] <rexy_> or just run the Xconfiguration thing again
[10:11] <Thursty> how do you get to terminal, or w/e the place is where you put in all the commands
[10:11] <macd> chris_, right click the desktop-switch applet in the lower taskbar and hit properties, then you can add more.
[10:11] <nandemonai> AnRkey: Add them to the admin group.
[10:11] <ubuntufan> dezelin: i`m there.. now what ?
[10:11] <Bucketface> Apps
[10:12] <Thursty> k
[10:12] <gplgeek> Oh i got it working now....
[10:12] <Ashfire908> is there a meta-package to install xfce without stuff like email clients etc?
[10:12] <dezelin> wait a second
[10:12] <Adlai> logreeval: I don't remember the intel wireless drivers working well with suspend
[10:12] <Adlai> you should probably just avoid suspending
[10:12] <Scr1pt> is there a site where u can learn stuff about linux.. like not helping with a problem, just learning , getting more experience?
[10:12] <dezelin> ubuntufan, find 'Section "Screen"'
[10:13] <ubuntufan> found it
[10:13] <dezelin> at the bottom
[10:13] <logreeval> Adlai: i know, its just it had worked flawlessy before :(
[10:13] <ubuntufan> yes..
[10:13] <Ryan52> I accidentally ran "ltsp-build-client" when I meant to run "ltsp-build-client --arch i386" so how do I get rid of the amd64 version?
[10:13] <dezelin> you will see line with Option "1024x768" in it
[10:13] <Adlai> Ashfire908: probably just xfce4
[10:13] <dezelin> add "1240x1024" in from of "1024x768"
[10:13] <ubuntufan> between EndSubSection and EndSubSection ?
[10:13] <dezelin> and save
[10:14] <ubuntufan> aah
[10:14] <Adlai> dezelin: 12_8_0
[10:14] <ubuntufan> 		Modes		"1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[10:14] <dezelin> beetwen Option and "1024x768"
[10:14] <ubuntufan> here ?
[10:14] <dezelin> Modes  "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[10:14] <logreeval> Is there a way to manually turn on the wireless card from ubuntu?
[10:14] <dezelin> change to
[10:14] <ubuntufan> at each and one ?
[10:15] <ubuntufan> there are.. like 6 line of this
[10:15] <Adlai> logreeval: I think you have to modprobe the correct module for your card
[10:15] <dezelin> no just for 24bpp
[10:15] <dezelin> Depth
[10:15] <aman> astro76 r u there
[10:15] <ubuntufan> ah ok
[10:15] <Adlai> if you put that in the correct place in a "wake up" script, you'll probably find everything working correctly again
[10:15] <ubuntufan> save and then ?
[10:15] <Adlai> although you might have to be sure to rmmod it before it goes to sleep
[10:15] <dezelin> you can safely delete others if you're not using those modes
[10:15] <dezelin> logout
[10:15] <gregh308> when trying to install gnucash  I got a error that says " C compiler cannot create executables" ANy ideas on how to resolve ?
[10:15] <Adlai> I don't know the specifics, but if you play around / search around, you should get it working
[10:16] <logreeval> Adlai: ok, thanks
[10:16] <aman> adlai help
[10:16] <ubuntufan> ah ok.. and then i can change the display settings .. right ?

[10:19] <macd> gregh308, you should 'sudo apt-get update' first, then try again.
[10:19] <macd> gregh308, do not paste in here, use pastebin.

[10:20] <Thursty> yesssssssssssssssssssss got ubuntu working
[10:20] <hetzz> :D

[10:22] <Scr1pt> aman, for me its automaticly working... so dont really know how to set it up manually
[10:22] <aman> means internet is not working in linux but its working in windows
[10:22] <macd> Skrypt, what is the actual file extension?
[10:22] <Thursty> ow do i make ubuntu not ask for my password on startup
[10:22] <Skrypt> .bin
[10:22] <Thursty> how*
[10:23] <hagar> Can anybody tell me why glxgears crush my x serwer, turn off PC and all games exiting randomly with signal 11, sigsegv, segmentation error? ithey used to work fine..I did only updates..
[10:23] <macd> Skrypt, to my knowledge .bin files are binaries (executeables) not video files.
[10:23] <macd> Thursty, you can goto system -- prefs -- login then enable passwordless login
[10:23] <_cap__> hello, I've been trying to get gutsy tribe5 onto a usb stick, anyone succeeded with this before? known problems?
[10:24] <Blauhaut> selam
[10:24] <macd> _cap__, just how youd create any other bootable USB image.
[10:24] <ckin2001> skrypt - you sound like you are missing a .cue file
[10:24] <aman> Adlai do u have any idea to solve my problem
[10:24] <Thursty> ty
[10:24] <Scr1pt> thursty, system->administration->users and groups -> security  -> enable automatic login (i think)
[10:24] <macd> ckin2001, ahh good call, I forgot bin/cue you can use k3b to burn a bin file without a cue file.
[10:25] <ckin2001> he should be able to mount it with iso9660 - but i question the legality
[10:25] <ubuntufan> the thing with sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf didn't work man :(
[10:25] <macd> Thursty, actually were both wrong, its system -- admin -- login window -- security tab
[10:26] <aman> ckin2001 help plz
[10:26] <ropiku> hello, where can I get some help for Gutsy ?
[10:26] <aman> ckin2001
[10:28] <_cap__> macd, eh? ...to get at live iso to a usb stick you'll have to do some file copying, configuring and bootloader setup. the existing guide for edgy does not seem to quite cut it on gutsy hence the question...
[10:28] <Thursty> yeah i found it heh
[10:28] <macd> _cap__, I've always just dd'd the image and set to boot from usb.
[10:29] <_cap__> macd, which image are you talking about?
[10:29] <macd> _cap__, iso.
[10:30] <_cap__> an iso cant be booted from a usb pendrive can it?!
[10:30] <macd> _cap__, its possible some bios's dont have emu iso9660 on usb boot devices
[10:30] <_cap__> macd, ah, I understand, I never thought of such a brute way...
[10:30] <_cap__> =)
[10:31] <macd> _cap__, yeah I've never actually tried the way you refer too, but I dont take mine anywhere with me either
[10:31] <_cap__> what I was attempting was the more sophisticated:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent?action=show&redirect=LiveUsbStick
[10:31] <_cap__> but I fully expect that it has to be tweaked for gutsy, heh
[10:32] <ropiku_> can someone help me with gutsy ?
[10:32] <File13> where do i install screenlets
[10:32] <macd> well Im thinking the issue your running into has todo with boot devices
[10:32] <_cap__> my last attempt booted ok up until it printed "squashfs: version..."
[10:32] <File13> it says ./screenlets but i dont see anything like that
[10:32] <macd> i.e. gutsy uses UUID's rather than /dev/hdx or sdx
[10:33] <macd> ropiku_, gutsy support is #ubuntu+1
[10:33] <ropiku_> macd: thanks
[10:33] <_cap__> ..probably suitable for me too
[10:33] <File13> anyone use screenlets?
[10:34] <yeniklasorr> ssh usr_name@IP_adress   is it true way to connect a ssh server ?
[10:34] <macd> _cap__, have you looked over https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence btw?
[10:34] <macd> they get into usb there as well
[10:34] <macd> it doesnt look like its been tested past tribe1
[10:35] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, yes, that's how you do it.
[10:35] <_cap__> macd, I saw that, yes
[10:35] <pero> hi
[10:36] <Blauhaut> Where can i find the packages that i download before ?
[10:36] <Blauhaut> where can i find the update files ?
[10:37] <mattg> YESSSS!!!  I finally got my virtual machine working good
[10:37] <fraco> where can i add the high-priority option to the pulseaudio daemon /etc/init.d/pulseaudio doesn't help, nor does /etc/pulse/daemon.conf (ps aux| grep pulse doesnt show the extra option)

[10:40] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

[10:40] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, then just uncomment all the lines that start with deb
[10:41] <saeba> hi, do you know if webcams on DELLInspiron laptops works under ubuntu ?
[10:41] <mattg> emerald, eh?  where do i snag that at?
[10:41] <Grungebunny> saeba im on a dell inspiron now running it ;)

[10:42] <KlrSpz> question... if i'm installing an app that also installs like 10 dependancies, and i am just testing... say i might wanna remove it 10 minutes later... is there a quick and easy way to uninstall all those deps i don't need anymore?
[10:42] <yeniklasorr> ok
[10:42] <underdog5004> KlrSpz, once you remove the program, use apt-get autoremove to remove those
[10:42] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, ok, now type in sudo apt-get update
[10:42] <mattg> bucketface, where do i get emerald?
[10:43] <underdog5004> this will update your apt so it recognizes the new sources
[10:43] <KlrSpz> underdog5004: hmm ok... also, do you think (in synaptic) that saving the "markins" would hepl
[10:43] <underdog5004> KlrSpz, markins? I don't use synaptic too much
[10:43] <Scr1pt> mattG to set ur panels transparant is in the panel options
[10:43] <garryfre> wow, the latest wine for Ubuntu has really screwed things up, oss crashes, Alsa works but the game hangs on exit.
[10:44] <KlrSpz> markings, sorry typo... yeah i haven't either, but i am heping a friend that is not linux savvy
[10:44] <underdog5004> garryfre, that's too bad. Try the wine channel
[10:44] <garryfre> Wine channel is dead.
[10:44] <underdog5004> KlrSpz, I don't really know
[10:44] <KlrSpz> i'm normally on gentoo, so this is all new to me as well
[10:44] <mattg> scr1pt: i have a dark background, how do i change the fonts to white?
[10:44] <yeniklasorr> underdog5004 : ok
[10:44] <underdog5004> garryfre, why do you think it will help to complain to us?
[10:44] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, ok, now try out sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[10:44] <advancedonsite> hi all
[10:45] <Ashfire908> what meta-package do i install to get xfce with the system tools and prefs, without the programs (as in thunderbird gaim etc)
[10:45] <underdog5004> Ashfire908, probably xubuntu-desktop
[10:45] <garryfre> underdog5004 if I mention it, maybe someone else here is having the same problem. besides the upgrade is offered automatically when I started up ubuntu.
[10:45] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: i think just xfce4
[10:46] <TimMc> Alert: The Mozilla Preview Archive (gnomefreak.youmortals.com) seems to have been taken over by an adversquatter.
[10:46] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: i started with xubuntu, which still includes SOME crap, but not horrible
[10:46] <Scr1pt> mattg, try system->preferences->font->best contrast
[10:46] <KlrSpz> i'm thinking of starting via the alternate cd
[10:46] <underdog5004> oh, w/o the programs, my bad, Ashfire908
[10:46] <grillo> hi there
[10:46] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, how's it coming?
[10:46] <grillo> can anyone helpme?
[10:46] <Ashfire908> Klrspz does it install system tools? or just the gui
[10:46] <advancedonsite> anyone know how to get TV composite out working on an ATI card?
[10:46] <_cap__> can you get the livecd to boot to a mega-failsafe-text-mode?
[10:46] <mattg> scr1pt: no go on the fonts
[10:47] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: which system tools are you looking for?
[10:47] <Scr1pt> mattg: with best contrast setting it should be good visible
[10:47] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: it includes the standard xfce settings ui tools
[10:47] <Ashfire908> _cap__, use the alternate cd
[10:47] <KlrSpz> i installed the cups interface to make it easy for my wife
[10:47] <advancedonsite> ?
[10:48] <advancedonsite> anyone know of what i could search upon for it?
[10:48] <underdog5004> advancedonsite, tv out $modelofcard
[10:48] <Ashfire908> KlrSpz, thanks. i'm trying to install a maintenance system on my server
[10:48] <underdog5004> on google
[10:48] <_cap__> Ashfire908, would have been an idea if I hadn't been trying to figure out what goes wrong with the livecd... heh :-)
[10:48] <grillo> how i unistall a device drive?
[10:49] <advancedonsite> radeon 9200 ATI
[10:49] <bbengs_> what kernal comes with ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04?
[10:49] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: what do you mean exactly?
[10:49] <garryfre> underdog5004 Ironically, I watch folks get help with gnome, kde, other things, without anyone complaining. Hmmm :/ That tells me some interesting things.
[10:49] <advancedonsite> i googled it and seem to be stuck
[10:49] <underdog5004> garryfre, uh, that wine isn't installed by default, and gnome and kde are?
[10:49] <benzs_s> what is the purge command again?
[10:49] <advancedonsite> the resolution just flickers on the TV
[10:50] <benzs_s> sudo apt-get purge?
[10:50] <underdog5004> advancedonsite, I have no idea how to get that to work, sorry
[10:50] <underdog5004> benzs_s, maybe --purge
[10:50] <garryfre> underdog5004 hehe, Touche
[10:50] <Pie-rate> i'm trying to connect to an SMB share, i can go into smb://pmtech (pmtech is the workgroup) and nautilus lists all the computers, but when i click on one it says "the folder contents could not be displayed"
[10:50] <goldbond> hey. i am trying to connect to my ubuntu server across the internet and i get this error when i ping: From 68.86.118.14 icmp_seq=45 Destination Host Unreachable
[10:50] <goldbond> do you know what could be wrong?
[10:50] <BlueBird> best way is to use a higher level package manager like aptitude or synaptic to purge packages, it causes a lot less trouble with dependancies ime
[10:50] <KlrSpz> Pie-rate: permissions are most likely wrong
[10:51] <Pie-rate> KlrSpz: permissions? what permissions?
[10:51] <Ashfire908> KlrSpz, i want to do some partitioning on the server but it drops me out in busybox if i use a livecd
[10:51] <underdog5004> yeniklasorr, did it work?
[10:51] <KlrSpz> goldbond: if you're behind a router, you need to make sure that the router accepts ings, and also has port forwarding to your internal IP
[10:51] <underdog5004> I hate when people don't say thank you
[10:51] <Ashfire908> KlrSpz, and i really suck at the text version of parted
[10:51] <KlrSpz> Ashfire908: check out virtualbox
[10:51] <KlrSpz> it's GREAT
[10:51] <BlueBird> goldbond: ot either isn;t listening, is not connected propperly, or ping is blocked on yoru network

[10:57] <hagar> nope
[10:57] <KlrSp1> test
[10:57] <Fer_re> *******Hello! Is anybody here who registered at driverguide.com? Plz help me!!!
[10:57] <KlrSp1> sorry my connection dropped me
[10:57] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: permissions of the samba share
[10:57] <KlrSp1> linux permissions override samba permissions
[10:58] <hagar> Sivik: no, but some mesa packeges was downlowaded, dbus rsync
[10:58] <KlrSp1> Fer_re: it's been many moons, but the old global login was : drivers/all
[10:58] <scatyb> can anyone help me rebuild my grub loader?
[10:58] <KlrSp1> Fer_re: otherwise check out www.bugmenot.com to see if anyone has an anonymous login
[10:59] <madman91> HOW do i see who the owner of a device is?
[10:59] <_cap__> madcreation, ls -l
[10:59] <Fer_re> KlrSp1: global login? login==drivers and password==all?
[11:00] <KlrSp1> Fer_re: yes
[11:00] <Fer_re> Sory for my engilsh =) I'm from Crimea =)
[11:00] <KlrSp1> Fer_re: but again it's been like 5/6 years since i've messed with that domain
[11:00] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: well, i have my mom's computer upstairs, its name is theboss2. if i type smbclient -L theboss2, it says "Error connecting to 69.19.214.181 (Connection refused)." This is very confusing, because 69.19.214.181 is a completely unrelated computer which is a webserver.
[11:00] <madcreation> _cap_,whats that for
[11:00] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: and theboss2 is 192.168.0.something
[11:00] <Fer_re> KlrSp1: In any case, thanks
[11:01] <fayelani> anyone here know anything about MythTV and got a minute to help me out?
[11:01] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: check your hosts file
[11:02] <scatyb> can anyone help me rebuild me reinstall my grub loader?
[11:02] <Arrick> hey all
[11:02] <KlrSp1> Fer_re: drivers/all worked for me
[11:02] <Arrick> in the 6.06.1 desktop version, when you use synaptic to install ethereal, where does it place the .conf file?
[11:02] <saeba> hi, does webcam on DELL Inspiron 1520 laptop works under Ubuntu Feisty ?
[11:02] <zabin_> ##C
[11:02] <Arrick> im looking and looking and not finding it, and I need to edit it to allow the use of my ethernet cards
[11:02] <madcreation> can anyone help me with samba
[11:04] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: http://pastebin.ca/671653
[11:04] <Nix0n> what kind of samba issue madcreation?
[11:04] <goldbond> are any of you able to ping 24.13.207.239?
[11:05] <wishwish> I was wondering if anyone could help me disable gnome-panel?  I kill the process, and it comes back. :)
[11:05] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: sorry, recap everything again? i'm on my htpc so there's no logging, and i lost connection earlier so i had to restart the client
[11:05] <Pie-rate> goldbond: no.
[11:05] <goldbond> pie-rate: can you open a ssh connection with it?
[11:05] <KlrSp1> goldbond: not here
[11:05] <Skiessi> goldbond: From 68.86.118.14 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
[11:05] <Fer_re> KlrSp1: Thank you!!! it works!!! Ubuntu is great - it gives goodness to us! =)))
[11:05] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: ok, trying to connect to a windows share on my mom's computer, called "theboss2"
[11:05] <goldbond> do you know what these errors mean?
[11:05] <Pie-rate> goldbond: no
[11:06] <KlrSp1> goldbond: either nothing is listening to pings, or you're behind some NAT/firewall
[11:06] <natb> anyone know what driver i should be using with wifi-radio, i have a ipw 2200 card in my laptop
[11:06] <natb> for WPA that is
[11:06] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: ok so you said you can view the workgroup, but not enter the actual share right?
[11:06] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: yes.
[11:07] <KlrSp1> can you view the shares on the client? or is it opening the cient that's not working?
[11:07] <goldbond> klrspl: the server is connected directly to the modem
[11:07] <Monkeycracks> how can i start ubuntu without xserver-xorg starting?
[11:07] <Monkeycracks> like, i want to boot into the terminal and startx if i need to
[11:07] <KlrSp1> goldbond: well some modems have firewalls built in
[11:07] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: if i type smbclient -L theboss2, it says it can't connect to 69.19.214.181, which is the webserver serving pmtech.com.
[11:07] <KlrSp1> odd
[11:07] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: i think, anyway
[11:08] <Arrick> in the 6.06.1 desktop version, when you use synaptic to install ethereal, where does it place the .conf file?
[11:08] <preaction> Pie-rate, is theboss2 defined in your /etc/hosts file?
[11:08] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: and you are opn the same network?
[11:08] <KlrSp1> preaction: already tried that one :) it's clean
[11:08] <Pie-rate> preaction: no, it isn't.
[11:08] <preaction> Pie-rate, can you connect using the computer's IP address instead of its hostname?
[11:08] <KlrSp1> preaction: here's his hosts file: http://pastebin.ca/671653
[11:08] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: right now i'm using DHCP. normally i'm 69.19.214.183, which is jon.pmtech.com
[11:08] <Arrick> ok, different approach
[11:08] <KlrSp1> that was my next step
[11:09] <Pie-rate> preaction: let me try.
[11:09] <Monkeycracks> hm
[11:09] <Arrick> how do I do a search with terminal for all files that are *.conf
[11:09] <Monkeycracks> can you start ubuntu without starting xserver
[11:09] <Monkeycracks> o.O
[11:09] <wishwish> I was wondering if anyone could help me disable gnome-panel?  I kill the process, and it comes back. :)
[11:09] <KlrSp1> Arrick: updatedb && locate *.conf
[11:09] <Arrick> thanks KlrSp1
[11:09] <KlrSp1> Monkeycracks: remove gdm from your rc level
[11:10] <kevor> everning :)
[11:10] <wishwish> Monkeycracks, yes.  Look in /etc/init.d/ for something like gdm, kdm, or xdm and remove it
[11:10] <KlrSp1> not sure how you do that in ubuntu exactly, but it should be in like rc.3
[11:10] <Filthpig> hi, how do I make the gnome panel behave mac osX-ish?
[11:10] <kevor> is there a program that monitors bandwith per user?
[11:10] <Pie-rate> preaction: yes, i can.
[11:10] <KlrSp1> no no no, don't remove from init.d
[11:10] <Pie-rate> preaction: windows sucks.
[11:10] <Monkeycracks> and then i just have to startx to start it back up again right?
[11:10] <Arrick> how about a pause KlrSp1 ? so I hit space to see the next page?
[11:11] <scatyb> I can't seem to get the grub loader setup.  can anyone help me?
[11:11] <wishwish> onkeycracks, you can do that or run your display manager ... prolly gdm
[11:11] <b0ha> hello
[11:11] <KlrSp1> Arrick: there's a saying of "less is more"
[11:11] <KlrSp1> Arrick: locate *.conf | less
[11:11] <Arrick> ok
[11:11] <b0ha> i have problems installing ati drivers (radeon 9600)
[11:11] <Monkeycracks> well
[11:11] <Monkeycracks> will try
[11:11] <b0ha> can someone look at this : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34818/
[11:12] <wishwish> Anyone know how I can get rid of my gnome-panel with the default ubuntu-desktop installation?  If I kill gnome-panel, it comes back.
[11:12] <KlrSp1> scatyb: gimme a few and i'll see if i can help, let me see if i can help out Monkeycracks
[11:12] <SunWuKung> ACTION gives KlrSp1
[11:12] <KlrSp1> Monkeycracks: you didn't remove from init.d did you?
[11:12] <Monkeycracks> not yet
[11:12] <KlrSp1> ok don't
[11:12] <Monkeycracks> o.O mk
[11:12] <frojn1> How can I install .deb file in command line ?
[11:12] <KlrSp1> you have rc levels, which are started up when you boot
[11:12] <Monkeycracks> alright
[11:13] <KlrSp1> i'm trying to find out how the hell ubuntu manages them
[11:13] <KlrSp1> frojn: dpkg -i <path to .deb file>
[11:13] <blix> any partition guru's?
[11:13] <madman91> HOW do i see who the owner of a device is?
[11:13] <blix> I'm trying to make a portion of my ext3 drive to fat32 or ntfs
[11:13] <blix> using qtparted
[11:13] <wishwish> ls -l /dev/whatever
[11:14] <madman91> wishwish: hm.. its root:plugdev .. should i change that?
[11:14] <KlrSp1> Monkeycracks: in /etc/rc2.d you should have a symlink called: S13gdm
[11:14] <scatyb> blix, boot to livecd and resize/format ntfs
[11:14] <wishwish> Nah, you can probably add yourself to the plugdev group in /etc/group
[11:14] <KlrSp1> that is pionting to your /etc/init.d/gdm script.. which is why you don't want to get rid of it
[11:14] <Pie-rate> preaction: why can't it figure out the hostnames, though?
[11:14] <blix> scaty...
[11:14] <madman91> wishwish: thanks!
[11:14] <KlrSp1> Monkeycracks: so just delete that sym link and yo're good, but i'm not sure if that's the "ubuntu" way, but that's the "linux" way
[11:14] <m1x> are the nvidia drivers from the official site the best to run on ubuntu? because I also see something with legacy drivers and so on
[11:14] <blix> is that going to delete my current Ubuntu installation?
[11:15] <Idfy> I'm having a problem, When I hook up my computer to the tv via dvi (male to male) when it boots it says "file /DSDT.aml not found. I look it up and it has something to do with acpi. But why does that prevent it from booting?
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> KlrSpl, and startx will bring it back up right?
[11:15] <KlrSp1> yes
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> alright
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> thanks
[11:15] <KlrSp1> or you can manually start gdm
[11:15] <BrendanW> Ugg. My pidgin window won't resize.
[11:15] <preaction> Pie-rate, what do you mean "figure out"? how is it supposed to figure it out? is your windows server set up to manage the samba hostnames for the network?
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> bleh
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> what's the terminal delete command
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> :P
[11:15] <KlrSp1> rm
[11:15] <BrendanW> rm
[11:15] <Monkeycracks> thanks
[11:15] <vlt> Hello. I want to transcode some .von files to avi using dvdrip's cluster setup. That would be no problem if dvdrip had saved the vob files to its avi/tmp/vob directory structure and created a describing .rip file. But I only have the vob files. Is there any way to turn this into a dvdrip project to be able tu use its cluster daemon?
[11:15] <BrendanW> KlrSp1: Beat me to it. :] 
[11:15] <Pie-rate> preaction: i have no idea, all i know is if i go to any windows computer on the network, i can click "theboss2" and it doesn't give me a wonky error message.
[11:16] <vlt> some .vob files*
[11:16] <blix> right, ok let me give it ago
[11:16] <blix> BRB

[11:16] <wishwish> Anyone know how I can get rid of my gnome-panel with the default ubuntu-desktop installation?  If I kill gnome-panel, it comes back.
[11:16] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[11:16] <roguetrick> monkeycracks, might want to print out a cheat sheet for BASH
[11:16] <m1x> !root
[11:16] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:16] <Monkeycracks> roguetrick, probably will at some point
[11:16] <preaction> Pie-rate, because windows tends to do wonderful things like polling and listening for no reason (or rather, for the reason of discovering other samba systems on the network)
[11:16] <BrendanW> !dfla |tryingtofindoutthecommands
[11:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dfla - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:16] <KlrSp1> damn he left
[11:17] <Pie-rate> preaction: so why can't ubuntu do that?
[11:17] <preaction> Pie-rate, these are not good things, but iirc you can get your samba daemon to do them, i just don't know how
[11:17] <KlrSp1> that's not true either m1x
[11:17] <BrendanW> http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi :/ Non-existant.
[11:17] <KlrSp1> there IS a root password, and you can set it via sudo
[11:17] <mattg> how do i use the cube desktop effect???
[11:17] <KlrSp1> it's ranomized usually on install
[11:17] <BrendanW> mattg: compiz-fusion
[11:17] <preaction> KlrSp1, and it's not something that any normal user should do
[11:17] <KlrSp1> mattg, /j #compiz-fusion
[11:17] <File13> if i want to reinstall screenlets should i remobe it completely first or can i just install over it and be fine
[11:17] <m1x> especially a noobie like me ^
[11:17] <KlrSp1> preaction: why do you say that?
[11:18] <mattg> i think it's already on here... :S
[11:18] <KlrSp1> it's the same power really, with less security
[11:18] <m1x> I already messed up my ubuntu... had to reinstall
[11:18] <BrendanW> mattg: Did you install it?
[11:18] <Pie-rate> preaction: main thing i want to know right now, is why does it try to connect to 69.19.214.181 (pmtech.com) when i run smbclient -L theboss2?
[11:18] <roguetrick> k1rsp1, no real reason to do it anyway, is sudo that much of a pain?
[11:18] <preaction> KlrSp1, exactly. next you'll tell them how to enable root login from GDM
[11:18] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: your server is probably running samba as a master?
[11:18] <BrendanW> mattg: If not, then no - It's not compiz-fusion. Compiz-fusion is kind of complicated but the guys over at #compiz-fusion can probably help you out.
[11:18] <Pie-rate> KlrSp1: no. it doesn't even have samba.
[11:18] <KlrSp1> roguetrick: no it's no pain, just stating the truth is all
[11:18] <cheeseboy> how  do i mount lvm partition from live cd?
[11:19] <preaction> Pie-rate, because it looks up the dns record of "theboss2", doesn't find it, and apparently your DNS has a fallback entry to whatever you just said
[11:19] <KlrSp1> Pie-rate: is it a domain controller?
[11:19] <Pie-rate> preaction: ah, yes it does.
[11:19] <preaction> Pie-rate, do `host theboss2` and you'll see where it got the IP address
[11:19] <KlrSp1> netbios sucks anyway
[11:20] <Pie-rate> preaction: theboss2.pmtech.com has address 69.19.214.181
[11:20] <Idfy> Is there any reason that my machine would not boot up on other monitors?
[11:20] <preaction> Pie-rate, notice a connection?
[11:20] <Nu11> What's the difference between the standard Ubunut 7.04 and the Fiesty FAwn version?
[11:20] <bur[n] er> Nu11: they're one and the same
[11:20] <Pie-rate> preaction: ok, so why do windows machines work?
[11:21] <preaction> Nu11: Ubuntu 7.04 IS fiesty fawn
[11:21] <Pie-rate> preaction: oh i guess you already answered that
[11:21] <m1x> so uh can anyone explain me how I can get the nvidia drivers installed and my resolution at 1280x1024 @85Hz. I already tried reading the guides, but I don't understand anything...
[11:21] <Nu11> That's what I thought.  I wasn't certain of it.
[11:21] <Nu11> thx
[11:21] <Sivik> m1x, what guides did u follow, the howto from !nvidia?
[11:21] <Pie-rate> preaction: well, why is listening for other smb servers a bad thing?
[11:21] <TerraMaster> I want to install a self extracting bin.... any help?
[11:21] <Bucketface> Uh
[11:21] <KlrSpz> m1x: use the restricted drivers

[11:22] <TerraMaster> I want to install a self extracting bin.... any help?
[11:22] <scatyb> can anyone give me a hand reinstalling grub?
[11:22] <Pie-rate> preaction: ok, but why doesn't ubuntu do that by default in the interest of being user friendly?
[11:22] <frojn1> How cain I instal compiz manager ??
[11:22] <frojn1> I allready have the newest package of compiz package
[11:22] <Bucketface> Uh
[11:22] <TerraMaster> !.bin
[11:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:22] <preaction> Pie-rate, ubuntu doesn't even install the samba daemon by default last i knew. the samba daemon can do what you want.
[11:22] <bur[n] er> TerraMaster: what's the application?  you could just chmod +x it so it's executable and then run it, but are you sure the app isn't in apt?
[11:22] <preaction> !fishing | TerraMaster
[11:22] <ubotu> TerraMaster: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...

[11:24] <frojn1> bur[n] er: yes..
[11:24] <Bucketface> You still here :D?
[11:24] <Pie-rate> preaction: wait, if its not looking for smb servers, why is there even a list of them when i point nautilus to smb://pmtech?
[11:24] <Bucketface> Oh dear.
[11:25] <Bucketface> CAn someone link me to how to get pidgin?
[11:25] <|neon|> what should I use to run some benchmarks on ubuntu
[11:25] <preaction> Pie-rate, because nautilus uses its own method, using the samba libraries
[11:25] <Ravenndude`> what is the command to do check disk (or something similar)
[11:25] <underdog5004> Bucketface, just google for pidgen
[11:25] <bur[n] er> frojn1: cool, for one #ubuntu-effects and for two, http://www.opencompositing.org/
[11:25] <underdog5004> !pidgen
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pidgen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <Bucketface> I have

[11:25] <Bucketface> And I found lots of crap that didn't work
[11:25] <KlrSpz> !pidgin
[11:25] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[11:25] <Bucketface> I know.
[11:25] <m1x> lol I just enable the restricted nvidia driver and bingo it works?
[11:25] <Bucketface> Yeh
[11:25] <Bucketface> You have to ;d
[11:26] <bur[n] er> m1x: that's it
[11:26] <KlrSpz> m1x: it downloads and installs the binary driver for you
[11:26] <scatyb> can anyone help me with the grub loader?
[11:26] <bur[n] er> m1x: less you tried to install from nvidia.com already and hosed it all up ;)
[11:26] <KlrSpz> also does a sed replacement on your xorgconf
[11:26] <m1x> awesome, thank you very much guys ;)
[11:26] <KlrSpz> wow half these triggers are incorrect
[11:26] <fenn_> looking to use bochs to use a Windows CD game
[11:27] <james296> well?
[11:27] <m1x> !deb
[11:27] <KlrSpz> Scatyb, ok so what's up
[11:27] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[11:27] <ianmcorvidae> Anyone in here know if the Ubuntu Gutsy fluxbox package works in Feisty?
[11:27] <KlrSpz> scaatyb, where you at/
[11:27] <scatyb> here
[11:27] <|neon|> i use ENVY to install the latest Nvidia driver and it works great for me
[11:27] <fenn_> anyone with Bochs experience here today?
[11:28] <TerraMaster> I did chmod on a bin and nothing happened..... Is that good?
[11:28] <Pie-rate> preaction: is there any way to make smb "just work?"
[11:28] <bur[n] er> TerraMaster: something happened, you just didn't see it :)
[11:28] <bur[n] er> TerraMaster: if you ls -l filename.bin you should see your newly applied permissions
[11:28] <TerraMaster> ok
[11:28] <skinnypuppy1334> preaction you might want to try swat
[11:28] <preaction> Pie-rate, as i explained before, i believe that there's a way to get the samba daemon to do what you want, but i do not know how.
[11:28] <preaction> skinnypuppy1334, i'll be sure to do that
[11:29] <TerraMaster> ok htanks its running
[11:29] <|neon|> any alternative to smb4k, if i use smb4k i can SU no more
[11:29] <bur[n] er> Pie-rate: define "just work" i'm a samba veteran :)
[11:29] <bur[n] er> for all my purposes, samba just works
[11:29] <skinnypuppy1334> I'm using smb://192.168.0.xxx to see the windows shares I haven't worked out where samba resolves computer name to ip
[11:30] <KlrSpz> samba doesn't do that at all
[11:30] <Evixion> Hello. I am trying to set up wireless on my laptop and when I try to get bcm43xx-fwcutter  I get a 404 error. Is there another way to do this?
[11:30] <bur[n] er> nautilus translates smb://hostname to smb://ipaddress for you
[11:30] <Ravenndude`> My computer didn't boot, so I am running the live CD. After a failed attempt at installing, dmesg shows "EXT3-fs: unable to read superblock" Now I can't mount the drive. is y HDD a goner?
[11:30] <cheeseboy> mounting lvm on live cd how?
[11:30] <KlrSpz> scatyb, ik mean where you at with your problem
[11:30] <jmonk82> what is the channel name for compiz
[11:30] <jmonk82> i forgot the name of the channel
[11:30] <bur[n] er> Evixion: silly question, is that laptop online?
[11:31] <Evixion> Yes. I have it hooked up via ethernet at the moment
[11:31] <bur[n] er> jmonk82: #compiz-fusion ?  #ubuntu-effects?
[11:31] <Evixion> lol good question to ask though
[11:31] <Dunas> How do I use .bz2 files? Specifically, how do I install them from the desktop? Such as in the case of Cube. And please don't tell me to use Google, as I've done that, and it's not giving me any help.
[11:31] <bur[n] er> Evixion: run an update first?  sudo apt-get update  ?
[11:31] <PriceChild> Dunas, you can't install them
[11:31] <Pie-rate> bur[n] er: "just work" is what windows does when you click on an SMB share.
[11:31] <PriceChild> Dunas, they're just archives... you can unpack them...?
[11:31] <PriceChild> Dunas, what is it?
[11:31] <Evixion> Ok. I will try that real quick althought I think I did that
[11:31] <bur[n] er> Pie-rate: nautilus does what windows does when you click on an smb share... it prompts for user pass if not already set
[11:32] <KlrSpz> scatyb: gimme some background on your problem
[11:32] <SunWuKung> ACTION gives KlrSpz
[11:32] <Evixion> Yes. I have done that and I still get the error.
[11:32] <Dunas> PriceChild: I downloaded a file sauerbraten_2007_08_19_summer_edition_linux.tar.bz2 in the interest of playing a game called Cube.
[11:32] <Dunas> But I have no idea how to use that filetype. ><
[11:32] <bur[n] er> Dunas: .bz2 is just a zip of source code, it's what in the bz2 that matters
[11:32] <KlrSpz> what's with this SunWuKung action crap?
[11:32] <nedoz> coc
[11:32] <TerraMaster> How would I go about installing the fonts form here? http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/
[11:32] <nedoz> ops
[11:32] <Pie-rate> bur[n] er: no, nautilus says "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: hostname"."
[11:32] <KlrSpz> Dunas: bunzip sauer*
[11:32] <skinnypuppy1334> when I click on a windows comp on the network I get a wait icon and eventually folder contents could not be displayed, smb:// IP OF COMPUTER will show the shares on that machine just fine though.
[11:32] <PriceChild> Dunas, double click it... does it have a readme file in there?
[11:33] <bur[n] er> Dunas: you can use file-roller to open .tar.bz2 files
[11:33] <skinnypuppy1334> Last message for burner
[11:33] <TerraMaster> How would I go about installing the fonts form here? http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/
[11:33] <Pie-rate> skinnypuppy1334: exactly
[11:33] <|neon|> bur[n] er any alternative to using smb4k on kubuntu, when i use smb4k sudo does not work anymore i tried different things with same result

[11:33] <skinnypuppy1334> you too pie rate?
[11:33] <KlrSpz> also, don't repeat
[11:33] <Dunas> KlrSpz: bash: bunzip: command not found PriceChild: Yes, but there's nothing in it that helps me. bur[n] er: Use what?
[11:33] <Ravenndude`> My computer didn't boot, so I am running the live CD. After a failed attempt at installing, dmesg shows "EXT3-fs: unable to read superblock" Now I can't mount the drive. is y HDD a goner?

[11:34] <bur[n] er> konqueror rules for network file systems!
[11:34] <KlrSpz> Dunas: it might be bzip2 and you might need tot ell the flag to unzip it
[11:34] <TerraMaster> Well there is a zip file, would I use that?
[11:34] <bur[n] er> Dunas: you trying to get sauerbraten?
[11:34] <bur[n] er> Dunas: it's in the repository in gutsy, isn't it in feisty?

[11:41] <Ultrabucket> Uh
[11:41] <bur[n] er> mikebot: i don't think so, i don't use list view so I don't know the specifics of it
[11:41] <Ultrabucket> I think I figured out why linux is freaking out all theh time.

[11:57] <m1x> so uh... how can i give myself full rights to read, write, delete, rename etc. files on my HDD
[11:58] <bur[n] er> m1x: fat32?
[11:58] <m1x> uhm xt3 and ntfs
[11:58] <bur[n] er> m1x: having problems on which one?
[11:58] <m1x> all
[11:59] <bur[n] er> well, the ext3 is probably your / so you can't have access to all without being root, that's by design
[11:59] <bur[n] er> there is a way around, but not recommended...
[11:59] <bur[n] er> the ntfs can be set with ntfs-config
[11:59] <bur[n] er> !ntfs-config | m1x
[11:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-config - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:59] <m1x> oh boy
[11:59] <rebugger> hi
[12:00] <bur[n] er> !info ntfs-config
[12:00] <ubotu> ntfs-config: Enable/disable write support for any NTFS devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 41 kB, installed size 432 kB

[12:00] <alecwh> !email > alecwh
[12:00] <alecwh> What are the best email clients out there? I'm sick of Thunderbird and Evolution...
[12:01] <m1x> ext3 is my root, yes. ntfs i use as storage for music and videos. I have a lot of files I need to delete and overwrite
[12:01] <VSpike> alecwh: what don't you like about them?
[12:01] <GMWeeze1> is there a program that i can use to screen capture a user selected rectangle on the screen?
[12:01] <rebugger> claws-mail ;)
[12:01] <alecwh> I don't know, I just want something new.
[12:01] <rebugger> GMWeeze1: capture as image or as movie?
[12:01] <bur[n] er> m1x: you have access to your whole /home/username on the ext3 which is hwere you could keep stuff... and the ntfs can use ntfs-config to enable write support
[12:01] <alecwh> claws mail?
[12:01] <james296> lol
