[12:02] <tonsofpcs> cosmodad: it only shows the keys for my current connection
[12:03] <Bieleke> wfb is unknown
[12:03] <Bieleke> but x asks for it
[12:03] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: tell the user to do the same on his machine
[12:03] <Bieleke> don't blame it on me :-)
[12:03] <tonsofpcs> cosmodad: the user is on Windows systems
[12:03] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: you can do something similar under Windows, just GUI-driven
[12:04] <blix_> right folks
[12:04] <tonsofpcs> cosmodad: no, you can't, it masks the keys

[12:06] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: why not?
[12:06] <rick__> Can someone help me with getting my wireless card on a hp pavilion ze4500?
[12:06] <tonsofpcs> they lack the know how and it will cause collisions because it is on a complex network

[12:07] <GIn> !vmware
[12:07] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[12:07] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: ok, so you could try to crack it. It'll most likely take you longer than next time you will access that router physically anyway
[12:07] <GIn> !virtualizers
[12:07] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[12:08] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: and since you're not in range for data traffic, you cannot crack anyway
[12:08] <yamyogurt> quick question whats the command to mount an iso image?
[12:08] <cosmodad> yamyogurt: mount -o loop
[12:08] <tanath> johnficca, sudo aptitude remove acroread
[12:08] <GIn> !VirtualBox
[12:08] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[12:08] <TerraMaster> cant you use deamon tools?
[12:08] <TerraMaster> or is it for linux...
[12:08] <rogue780_> is there a way to get wget to download files recursively via http, and not just download the directory listings?
[12:08] <cosmodad> yamyogurt: more specifically: mount -t iso9660 -o loop /dev/cdrom <mountpoint>
[12:08] <johnficca> tanath: I didn't install it like that
[12:09] <Awsoonn> I've got a lucent Winmodem, and installed the restricted drivers, so I can dial ( I hear the beeps ) but then I hear the operator tell me I havn't dailed a number, please help
[12:09] <johnficca> I used the installer
[12:09] <cosmodad> rogue780_: wget can do that only for FTP
[12:09] <tanath> johnficca, how did you install it?
[12:09] <MrCollins> Awsoonn: swap wires.
[12:09] <cosmodad> rogue780_: you need to get a HTTP spider or something
[12:09] <cosmodad> rogue780_: some "rip off HTML sites" tool, that is
[12:09] <tonsofpcs> MrCollins: I set up a router elsewhere and I need to recover the WEP key because the end user forgot it.  I know my machine has it stored, I just don't know where.
[12:09] <TerraMaster> my usb harddisk is not autoloading, any help?
[12:09] <johnficca> tanath: I used the installer
[12:10] <yamyogurt> cosmodad: thanks alot
[12:10] <superkirbyartist> I fixed wireless problems by moving a candlestick that was on the same small table as my router's.
[12:10] <johnficca> that you download on the adobe site
[12:10] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: tried that, also hooked up an analog phone to it to verify the conneciton to that point
[12:10] <tanath> johnficca, this should get rid of everything regardless: sudo aptitude remove acroread mozilla-acroread acroread-plugins
[12:10] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: didn't you say before the key iwlist shows isn't the key you're looking for?
[12:10] <tronklik> hay
[12:10] <tanath> johnficca, unless it installs under a different name
[12:10] <bulmer> Awsoonn: you are using the hayes AT command to dial right?
[12:10] <MrCollins> Awsoonn: what strings are you sending it?
[12:10] <tanath> johnficca, try that anyway. won't hurt
[12:10] <tonsofpcs> cosmodad: iwlist for keys shows the keys for what I'm currently connected to, not that one.
[12:10] <MrCollins> Atdt *number*
[12:10] <johnficca> ok
[12:10] <rogue780_> cosmodad, ok here's my problem. I just moved. went and set up my network again with the exception of instead of 192.168.1.xxx it is now 192.168.100.xxx (due to the DSL modem's default ip address) For some frickin' reason samba won't work now. I need to get my itunes library off my fileserver to my windows box. Any ideas?
[12:10] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: I don't know, nothign special
[12:10] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: see /etc/network/interfaces then
[12:11] <Awsoonn> bulmer: I'm using Gnome PPP
[12:11] <TerraMaster> my usb harddisk is not autoloading, any help?
[12:11] <tonsofpcs> I'm using NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4
[12:11] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: or whatever GUI tool you use to log on to that network
[12:11] <MrCollins> Awsoonn: you gotta send it At commands......
[12:11] <MrCollins> like
[12:11] <tonsofpcs> it's the included thing
[12:11] <MrCollins> ATA is for pickup
[12:11] <MrCollins> ATH is hang up. etc etc.
[12:11] <bulmer> Awsoonn: how are you telling the modem to dial out? what command?
[12:11] <tonsofpcs> interfaces only has info on lo
[12:11] <rapid> ATDT
[12:11] <rapid> how old school is that
[12:11] <rapid> lol
[12:11] <Awsoonn> bulmer: I use Gnome-PPP and give it a phone number, username and pass
[12:11] <tonsofpcs> rapid: would you rather ATDP?
[12:11] <MrCollins> rapid: hehehe :) i used to be on the BBS's back in the day
[12:12] <kurosaki> Pulse.. lol
[12:12] <cosmodad> rogue780_: how's that related to http downloading?
[12:12] <TerraMaster> my usb harddisk is not autoloading, any help?
[12:12] <TerraMaster> I really want to know how to mount it
[12:12] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: I'm using Gnome-PPP to dail and asume it is doing all that for me.
[12:12] <rapid> haha
[12:12] <bulmer> Awsoonn: you may have to use a command line to send the commands..like using wvdial
[12:12] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: I don't use the GUI manager but I guess it give you the key somewhere
[12:12] <MrCollins> Awsoonn: in the gnome-ppp in the number section add 3 commands like ',,,1234567890'
[12:12] <kurosaki> TerraMaster, Google is your friend.
[12:12] <TerraMaster> -___-
[12:12] <rogue780_> cosmodad, well, I found that I can still access my webserver from my windows box...so a symlink later and I can browse through my itunes library...thought I had the problem solved
[12:12] <MrCollins> 3 commas not commands
[12:12] <Awsoonn> bulmer: link me some info on that please
[12:13] <Bieleke> cosmodad: found the solution
[12:13] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: will try that
[12:13] <bulmer> Awsoonn:  i have nothing off hand..other than  google.com
[12:13] <Bieleke> is in the bug-report
[12:13] <MrCollins> bulmer: but how does he get tcp/ip if he is using wvidal?
[12:13] <Awsoonn> Bulmer: I'll google around for it, thanks!
[12:13] <silvertip257> I'm getting a limited shell error when I try to boot to a live cd ..
[12:13] <scorpking> Awsoonn: just got here. what modem are you using?
[12:13] <blix_> brb folks
[12:13] <cosmodad> rogue780_: sounds like an access problem, like firewalling, access rules,something like that
[12:13] <bulmer> MrCollins: the command to get to ppp mode is control ~ i believe..its been so long
[12:14] <Awsoonn> scorpking: it is a Lucent winmodem, I'm using the restricted drivers.
[12:14] <MrCollins> bulmer: ah. ok cool
[12:14] <VSpike> Does anyone know of a program that can do two way syncronising of files automatically between two locations, and flag up for manual action any conflicts (i.e. file that have changes at both locations since last sync) ?
[12:14] <scorpking> Awsoonn: mmm... can't help. :/
[12:14] <cosmodad> VSpike: unison
[12:14] <rogue780_> cosmodad, any idea what might cause it?
[12:15] <Awsoonn> scorpking: Thx anyways! :)
[12:15] <Thursty> i'm following a beryl install guide and it's stuck at

[12:15] <ubotu> Thursty: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:15] <cosmodad> rogue780_: I need to know more about your setup: first, how many machines?
[12:15] <Thursty> sorry
[12:15] <cosmodad> rogue780_: where's samba server located and from where do you need to access it? what IPs?
[12:15] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: nope, too cheap for that stuff, there is nothing special about the line. xD
[12:15] <johnficca> tanath: ok I think I did it I found it under /usr/localAdobe, so I just rm that folder .
[12:16] <MrCollins> Awsoonn: get a hardware modem or external modem
[12:16] <tanath> johnficca, yeh, that should do it. and rm any symlinks to it
[12:16] <VSpike> cosmodad: awesome.  totally awesome.  Thanks!
[12:16] <cosmodad> VSpike: :)
[12:16] <cosmodad> Thursty: if it hangs there, try if you can wget some other site, like www.google.de. If that fails too, the beryl server is currently unavailable
[12:16] <Thursty> i'm following a beryl install guide and it's stuck at the wget part, this is what it says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35315/
[12:16] <johnficca> tanath: thanks for the help
[12:16] <ward_> hi all, i want to get the latest development source of a program, but i don't know how to get it, can someone take a look? the latest version is 0.4.4 and they use arch: http://arch.gephex.org/
[12:16] <tanath> johnficca, type 'which acroread' and rm that too
[12:17] <tanath> johnficca, np
[12:17] <Thursty> nm
[12:17] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: Not an option currently, I'll be in Japan on Friday
[12:17] <cosmodad> ward_: enable the src repository where the program is, then get the source with something like: apt-get source <program>
[12:17] <tonsofpcs> MrCollins: any clue where it stores them?
[12:17] <ward_> cosmodad, can i do that if they use arch?
[12:17] <tonsofpcs> someone suggested in my 'keychain' earlier, but where would that be?
[12:17] <CaBlGuY> whats the deal with Azureus and the UDP ports not workin?  Also, we gonna be updating the package to 3.0 any time soon??
[12:18] <rogue780_> right now, two. the samba server is this computer that I'm talking to you with. its IP address is 192.168.100.201 the windows computer is connected via a Linksys WRT54GL router
[12:18] <Awsoonn> MrCollins: The software aperass to work, and is in the HCL
[12:18] <cosmodad> ward_: the method works if the package is in the Ubuntu repositories. Is it?
[12:18] <ward_> cosmodad, i need to compile the source (wich is no problem) the release comes with a bug, thats why i need the latest sources
[12:18] <Moez> Hello ! Question : An USB scanner is automatically detected by XSane ?
[12:18] <tanath> CaBlGuY, i'd recommend going with ktorrent. it's more efficient
[12:18] <rogue780_> cosmodad, my last to you
[12:18] <cosmodad> ward_: oh I see
[12:18] <ward_> cosmodad, it also isnt in the repos
[12:18] <tanath> CaBlGuY, i used to use azureus, but i find ktorrent is faster, and less of a resource hog
[12:19] <CaBlGuY> tanath:  true but, I don't get the speed out of Ktorrent most of the time..
[12:19] <VSpike> cosmodad: do you know how well it will cope with things like deleted files or moving directories?
[12:19] <cosmodad> rogue780_: can you ping each other#s machine?
[12:19] <ward_> cosmodad, i'm just having trouble finding out how to get the latest source from there, i'm not familiar with the systems, i'm not much of a coder
[12:19] <phenom> cablguy/tanath: rtorrent :)
[12:19] <cosmodad> VSpike: not sure, but it's *the* program to do synchronization
[12:19] <GIn> I'm only browsing the web and chatting with xchat, and my cpu usage is jumping around 30 to 45% :S Does firefox really eats up that much of cpu resources? Is there a lighter browser?
[12:19] <tanath> CaBlGuY, if you don't get the speed with ktorrent, you wouldn't with azureus either.
[12:19] <Exiton> Im haveing a problem with ubuntu server.  Im running Apache2 and OpenSSH and the servers will only receive connections when im activly browsing the internet on the server machine.  If i let the server run idle for a length of time people stop being able to connect to it.  Any ideas?
[12:19] <cosmodad> VSpike: so it should be pretty sophisticated
[12:19] <CaBlGuY> tanath:  I will get it now..  see how it does..  thanks..
[12:19] <tanath> phenom, rtorrent is terrible :P
[12:19] <VSpike> cosmodad: thanks, i'll hit the docs in depth
[12:19] <tanath> CaBlGuY, np
[12:19] <phenom> terrible? :)
[12:20] <tanath> phenom, text only, and non-intuitive interface

[12:20] <TerraMaster> When I inster my usb device I get this in the system moniter... And my usb is still not showing up! any help?
[12:20] <tonsofpcs> so any clue where my 'keychain' is stored?
[12:20] <cosmodad> ward_: I don't know arch myself, but it seems like you need an arch client and possibly an account too
[12:21] <cosmodad> ward_: there seems to be at least 1+ arch client, like archzoom
[12:21] <rogue780_> cosmodad, my windows box can ping my server, but my server cannot ping my windows box
[12:21] <phenom> tanath: I'm old school I guess. rtorrent works for me. :)
[12:21] <cosmodad> rogue780_: check the Windows box' firewall
[12:21] <TerraMaster> Any help?
[12:21] <tanath> phenom, it can be handy if you don't have or aren't using X, but that's not most people. but whatever works for you
[12:21] <trs1> join #kubuntu
[12:21] <ekom> could anyone help me with my lost window borders after installing compiz fusion?
[12:22] <ward_> cosmodad, i allready looked trough their sources with their web arch client, but i don't see anything from 2007 in there (0.4.4 came this year)
[12:22] <phenom> Azureus open up some funny ports, and requires additional firewall tweaking, or deal with a lot of warnings.
[12:22] <scorpking> rogue780: nortons on the windows box?
[12:22] <tanath> ekom, try running 'compiz --replace'
[12:22] <ekom> nothing
[12:22] <tanath> ekom, or sometimes, if you run comizconfig settings manager, and disable, then reenable the window decorations plugin, that'll fix it
[12:22] <cosmodad> ward_: sorry as I said, I don't much about arch.
[12:23] <ward_> cosmodad, ok no problem
[12:23] <user_> oi
[12:23] <bokl> how do I force ubuntu to always open files with an extension (.url) with a specific application?
[12:23] <ekom> tanath, still nothing
[12:23] <tonsofpcs> does anyone know where NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4 stores keys?
[12:23] <ward_> can anyone tell me how to get the latest 0.4.4 from http://arch.gephex.org/ ? (the released source comes with a bug)
[12:23] <tanath> bokl, in nautilus, right click on the file, choose properties > open with..
[12:24] <tanath> ekom, any other plugins working?
[12:24] <tanath> ekom, sure you installed it right?
[12:24] <tanath> ekom, do you have emerald installed?
[12:24] <ekom> emerald is installed
[12:24] <ekom> i believe everything is installed correct, followed directions close
[12:24] <Teknoenie> any shell scripters out there?
[12:25] <tanath> ekom, some guides are better than others...
[12:25] <phenom> bokl: system/preferences/Preffered applications?
[12:25] <floresc7> whats the status with using SATA hds with Feisty?
[12:25] <ekom> ive tried two different ones
[12:25] <dho_ragus> Teknoenie: shell script help is best found in somewhere like #bash
[12:25] <tanath> ekom, sure you have compizconfig settings manager?
[12:25] <bokl> tanath: tried that, didnt work... I set firefox. Doubleclick a .url then gives: "cannot open [---]  file is of type "application/x-mswinurl". "
[12:25] <ekom> yep
[12:25] <ekom> none of the other plug ins work
[12:25] <tanath> ekom, not just the default configure thingy that it has by default
[12:26] <ekom> i definitely have the compizconfig settings manager
[12:26] <tonsofpcs> anyone?
[12:26] <cosmodad> bokl: some right-click accessible context menu entry possibly?
[12:26] <bokl> tanath: ...but when I drag drop the .url on firefox I got it to work
[12:26] <Moez> Question : An USB scanner is automatically detected by XSane ?
[12:27] <jrib> ward_: try googling for 'arch version control tutorial' or try #arch
[12:27] <cosmodad> tonsofpcs: I think it's in your keyring: http://live.gnome.org/DarrenAlbers/NetworkManagerFAQ#head-db70c07a5d8c88d63faf6b9b98d94cec5307cd04
[12:27] <bokl> cosmodad: I dont understand what you said
[12:28] <cosmodad> bokl: if you right-click on a .url file in your file browser, is there some menu entry where you set the default opening application?
[12:28] <floresc7> Anyone have experience with DRBL and Clonezilla?
[12:28] <rogue780_> cosmodad, you were right. it was the firewall. when I changed the IP address scheme I forgot to tell zone alarm
[12:28] <tomer> hi pppl
[12:28] <tanath> bokl, strange. try setting it to epiphany or something
[12:28] <tomer> whats up
[12:28] <tomer> having some issues here with vncserver
[12:28] <CaBlGuY> allllrighty tanath, you were correct...   started right up..  thanks again.. ;)
[12:28] <cosmodad> rogue780_: there you go
[12:28] <ward_> jrib, i foudn out they apperantly use darcs now... lol
[12:28] <bokl> cosmodad: yes, I've set it to open with Firefox
[12:28] <ward_> jrib, sorry for the trouble but the website stated arch
[12:28] <tanath> ekom, if none of the other plugins work, then compiz likely isn't running
[12:28] <jrib> ward_: ha
[12:29] <ward_> jrib, http://darcs.gephex.org/gephex/gephex--main--0.4/
[12:29] <tanath> ekom, try running 'compiz --replace &' from a terminal and see what it says
[12:29] <tomer> i login to vnc from remote. everytime i try to run some app, e.g. synaptic, i get:
[12:29] <Exiton> so no one has seen this problem before?
[12:29] <ward_> jrib, with darcs its just "darcs http://whateverurl" right?
[12:29] <Al00> Hi folks -- I installed compiz-fusion and put in 'compiz --replace' in my session startup -- now my desktop no longer has icons on it and I cannot right-click on it to get any menus
[12:29] <ekom> sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
[12:29] <tomer> Badrequest
[12:29] <tomer> invalid request code blah blah blah
[12:29] <tomer> any ideas?
[12:30] <Bo1> what the hell i thought u guys said that ubuntu supports nivada] 
[12:30] <ekom> /usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Error: Can't load plugin 'ccp' because it is built for ABI version 20070708 and actual version is 20070824

[12:31] <jrib> ward_: darcs get foo  it seems
[12:31] <bokl> strange problem this... .url files are just plain text files with a .url extension... Windows use them to store URLs...
[12:31] <PanicByte> hey, is there a way to make my Core Duo laptop stay at maximum processor speed on AC power, and minimum speed on battery power?
[12:31] <dho_ragus> tomer: you get the "bad request" on the vnc-client system?
[12:31] <coz_> guy has anything changed in feisty?  I cannot get the nvidia driver to stick I have to reinstall everytime I restart  and I dont want the glx drivers because the nvidia glx is old and the g,x-new is the 100.xx series
[12:31] <Bo1> i have a e-GeForce FX5200, my ubuntu freeze  when is loading on loading screen
[12:31] <tomer> yes
[12:32] <dho_ragus> tomer: anything in the logs?
[12:32] <cosmodad> PanicByte: usually using a power manager is the best solution. Think of the environment!
[12:32] <Bo1> is a pci deivce
[12:32] <bokl> can i set file association to somehow bypass the warning window and FORCE firefox to open the .url? Since it works fine when I drag and drop it on firefox...
[12:32] <tanath> ekom, i'd recommend you remove all the compiz & beryl packages, and follow this guide: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=1012
[12:32] <jrib> PanicByte: if you use gnome, /apps/gnome-power-manager gconf keys let you set the scaling governor appropriately
[12:32] <ekom> alright thanks ill give that a try
[12:32] <tanath> bokl, is this warning from firefox or from nautilus?
[12:33] <Bo1> i have a problem, my ubuntu freeze when loading
[12:33] <bokl> nautilus i think
[12:33] <orudie> when i go to system-preferences-sound the test sound seem to work, but doesn't work anywhere but there
[12:33] <tanath> bokl, did you try setting it to epiphany instead?
[12:33] <tomer> which logs?
[12:33] <floresc7> I am trying to setup clonezilla on a ubuntu machine, but the client computers have sata hds, thus cannot be mounted.  Does any know where i get help with this?
[12:33] <dwbr> hello, I have quick (hopefully) question that I am hoping someone can help me with. I am running 7.04 and installed beryl as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Beryl/ATI/Feisty?highlight=%28beryl%29
[12:33] <nj786> my printer doesnt print properly it only prints out half a line
[12:33] <nj786> anybody help?
[12:34] <dwbr> Everything works except emeral
[12:34] <Bo1> be right back
[12:34] <rignes> Hey there.  What specifically runs to check for updates on startup?  aka, the little green circle thing.
[12:34] <tanath> dwbr, beryl is dead. it's compiz fusion now
[12:34] <bokl> i dont have epiphany... do i put that under "custom command"?
[12:34] <tanath> bokl, are you not running gnome?
[12:34] <dho_ragus> tomer: /var/log/*
[12:34] <bokl> think so... default ubuntu 7 install
[12:34] <tanath> bokl, you should, unless you're using a different version of ubuntu, like kubuntu or xubuntu
[12:35] <bokl> its ubuntu
[12:35] <dwbr> tanath, should I uninstall beryl and install compiz? Or is compiz just a new name for the same thing.
[12:35] <tanath> bokl, then unless it's specifically been removed, you have epiphany
[12:35] <dho_ragus> tomer: best way to find out what logs are being updated is to generate the error, then immediately do `find /var/log/ -mmin 1`
[12:35] <dho_ragus> tomer: that'll show you which logs have been modified in the last minute.
[12:35] <tanath> dwbr, beryl was a fork of compiz, but now they've remerged into compiz fusion. the executable name is still compiz thouigh
[12:35] <jmesquita> Guys, I am looking for a print server to buy for my new HP multifunctional printer. Is there a printer server fully compatible with Ubuntu that would use all the 2 functions (scanner and printer) of my new printer?
[12:36] <tanath> dwbr, yes
[12:36] <bokl> well it does not occur in the "open with" dialog and when i enter it under "custom command" it does not work...
[12:36] <PanicByte> cosmodad, watch this http://divx-323.vo.llnwd.net/stage6vid/1174924.divx
[12:36] <abyss> !dev-c++
[12:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dev-c++ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:36] <dwbr> tanath, so is emerald still used with compiz fusion?
[12:36] <tanath> dwbr, yes
[12:36] <abyss> anyone know if a dev-c++ package is aviable on ubuntu ff?
[12:37] <cosmodad> PanicByte: what's that?
[12:37] <dwbr> tanath, cool. I will go look at some docs for installing compiz. Thanks!
[12:37] <PanicByte> abyss, i think monodevelop might work for you
[12:37] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: i'm not speaking from linux experience here, but HP multifunction printers have print servers built in.
[12:37] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: *most hp....
[12:37] <PanicByte> cosmodad, it's a documentary entitled "The Great Global Warming Swindle"
[12:37] <jmesquita> dho_ragus: Yeah, mine is the really low-end one
[12:37] <tanath> bokl, hit ALT+F2, to get the run dialog, and start typing epiphany and see if it comes up...
[12:37] <jmesquita> dho_ragus: Has nothing but an USB port
[12:37] <tomer> not sure if you have the right syuntax
[12:37] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: ah.  you can't hook it directly to your linux box?
[12:37] <jmesquita> dho_ragus: Lame, I know. But I do live in Brazil. Those things get quite expensive
[12:37] <Kopfgeldjaeger> Good night and bye
[12:37] <bokl> no, no epiphany
[12:38] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: nah, hardware is hardware, we work with what we got. :)
[12:38] <jmesquita> dho_ragus: I can, but I want to connect it to my wireless network router
[12:38] <nickrud> jmesquita, hp provides drivers that are built by ubuntu; search http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=HP
[12:38] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: right, but what i mean is do you have a stationary machine that you can connect it to and use the machine for a print server?
[12:38] <jmesquita> nickrud: But this is for installing locally, right?
[12:38] <tanath> bokl, strange. did you install ubuntu yourself? how was it installed?
[12:38] <cosmodad> PanicByte: you want me to provide you a link with "An Incovenience Truth"?
[12:38] <jvai> jmesquita, i bought an hp photosmart c4280, that ubuntu didnt have drivers for, so i gogled for the CUPS version of them, but still, no scanner config fore me
[12:38] <cosmodad> PanicByte: inconvenient even
[12:39] <jmesquita> dho_ragus: No, I have a mac (notebook) and a Dell laptop running Ubuntu
[12:39] <PanicByte> cosmodad, i've seen it
[12:39] <jmesquita> jvai: Uh! That sux
[12:39] <jtu> i used to be able to play dvds in my cd/dvd combo drive, but now i can't. i can still play cds. has anyone else had this problem?
[12:39] <mjancaitis> I need to find the text version of my startup programs for gdm, who knows where it is?
[12:39] <dho_ragus> jmesquita: i had terrible experience with the buffalo print servers.... i recommend staying away from them.  the airport express was good, but you'd need os x or windows for that.
[12:39] <floresc7> Anyone? Clonezilla and DRBL experience?
[12:39] <tanath> bokl, if epiphany is missing, i wonder what else is missing, and if that's causing your problems
[12:39] <bokl> tanath: yes, from the standard cd... are you positive I need epiphany for my problem with .url files?
[12:39] <phenom> bokl: what browser do you want to open when welecting .html files and the like?
[12:39] <nickrud> jmesquita, if you have only a usb port, you'll need a computer with a server on it, unless I'm missing something from your posts.
[12:40] <scipio> tanath, isn't epiphany optional? at least that's what ubotu says
[12:40] <nickrud> mjancaitis, /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[12:40] <Aishiko_> I'm wondering where the drivers would be hidden in the file system?
[12:40] <cosmodad> PanicByte: you might wanna consider seeing it *again*
[12:40] <tanath> bokl, it's the standard browser that comes with gnome. i'm trying to determine if it's a nautilus/gnome prob, or a firefox prob
[12:40] <PanicByte> cosmodad, al gore is a hypocrit, he tells us not to drive an SUV, then he flys around on his private jet
[12:40] <bokl> phenom: ?
[12:40] <phenom> nm I'm lost.
[12:40] <tanath> scipio, i thought it was in a standard install??
[12:40] <mjancaitis> That's where the startups are listed too?
[12:40] <kristofer> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=420185&page=4
[12:40] <phenom> epiphany was not installed on my ubuntu base install.
[12:40] <bokl> tanath: ok. But can you open .url files without problems then?
[12:40] <Tigran> Hi, once I login my desktop icons dissapear and it freezes....how can I fix this?
[12:40] <jmesquita> nickrud: Thats what I want. A print server supported by Mac OS X and Linux Ubuntu for the HP C3180 Photosmart printer
[12:41] <abyss> any coder out there? if tell me what your favourit ide for coding c/cpp!
[12:41] <tanath> bokl, i went to check, but i don't have any .url files...
[12:41] <Tigran> abyss, eclipse
[12:41] <tanath> phenom, hunh, ok. good to know
[12:41] <scipio> tanath, i think they changed it in feisty. not 100% sure though
[12:41] <bokl> its windows .url files... plaintext files...
[12:41] <dho_ragus> abyss: most of my guys use eclipse
[12:41] <jtu> i used to be able to play dvds in my cd/dvd combo drive, but now i can't. i can still play cds. has anyone else had this problem? i'm using feisty
[12:41] <tanath> bokl, simple enough to make one then... hold on

[12:52] <vontux> is there a reason why Windows XP and Ubuntu 7.04 throw off each other's system clocks?
[12:52] <bokl> tanath: firefox asked that the first time, then i set it to always open or something like that... but ubuntu itself cant handle it
[12:53] <tanath> jtu, yeh, fills in little cracks. you put a bit of toothpaste on it, and wipe it off, going from center outwards
[12:53] <TerraMaster> !Iraq

[12:53] <Namec> hello there everyone! :)
[12:53] <nickrud> jmesquita, according to http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/inkjet_aio.html your printer/scanner is supported by hplip, and sane; and http://penguin-breeder.org/sane/saned/ explains how to scan over the network
[12:53] <tanath> bokl, sounds weird.
[12:53] <jtu> tanath: i'll give it a shot, but it sounds gimmicky
[12:53] <tanath> jtu, sometimes. it's worked for me a few times
[12:53] <vontux> is there a reason why Ubuntu 7.04 and Windows XP seem to throw off each other's system clocks?
[12:54] <jtu> tanath: any specific brand? i use colgate
[12:54] <T-Connect> Is there a new VMWare build that is in deb?
[12:54] <Pici> SpudDogg: s17ence Its much better to do sudo -i than sudo su.  the latter sets up some environment variables oddly.
[12:54] <mjancaitis> Google, vontux: I had that issue before and can't remember what I did to fix it, but there is one
[12:54] <jtu> tanath: might the baking soda scratch the disk?
[12:54] <tanath> jtu, there are kits you can but that basically do the same thing, but toothpaste is cheaper. :) i think i saw it on lifehacker
[12:54] <bokl> the solution here ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=324517 ) doesnt work for me either... Or it works when I right click a .url, "open with other", custom command, and enter the .sh path ... but when I associate that exact same path to the filetype it just gives the warning window...
[12:54] <cosmodad> vontux: Windows doesn't like UTC IIRC
[12:54] <tanath> jtu, shouldn't matter
[12:54] <cosmodad> vontux: you need to set it to local clocks
[12:54] <jvai> vontux, it's the way xp sets up time , it isnt right.. i read a link about it some time ago
[12:54] <jtu> tanath: ok, here goes nothin
[12:54] <tanath> jtu, don't think i've heard of using baking soda... i wouldn't use a powder
[12:54] <TerraMaster> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35322/ Please read and help me (details inside)
[12:54] <tanath> jtu, lol :D
[12:55] <SpudDogg> Pici: really?  i never had a problem with it, but next time i will do that
[12:55] <vontux> mjancaitis: thx, I'm just glad to know that there is a solution to google for ;)

[12:55] <tanath> jtu, that should help actually
[12:55] <nickrud> vontux, /etc/default/rcS , set UTC to no
[12:55] <Explosif> GIn, do you have the desktop effects turned on?

[12:56] <mjancaitis> nickrud, issues with login: right now my feisty refuses to get to the login screen; it boots and loads correctly, but right before it gets to the login, I get a black screen and the "thinking" spinning cursor; my gdm.conf-custom file's tags are pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35320/; this happened after I had a lot of trouble with VMware, anybody know what I can do about it?
[12:56] <jtu> tanath: well, it can't damage it much more
[12:56] <tanath> jtu, just make sure to go from center outwards
[12:56] <RoboticTao> How can you execute a command via ssh and have it continue to run after the ssh session has been closed?
[12:56] <lnxmomo> hey, i am tying to get some 3d acceleration effects on my desktop, however, i dont want to use compiz or beryl, what options do i have?
[12:56] <macd> RoboticTao, 'ssh host command &'
[12:56] <tanath> jtu, least chance of damaging it that way
[12:56] <jtu> tanath: around in circles?
[12:56] <tanath> jtu, no
[12:56] <jtu> tanath: straight strokes?
[12:57] <jtu> this sounds dirty
[12:57] <tanath> jtu, do not go in circles. straight from center out...
[12:57] <TJ__> how do i install video codecs using sudo command?
[12:57] <Exiton> ok one more try, mabe someone new logged on.  Im haveing a problem with ubuntu server.  Im running Apache2 and OpenSSH and the servers will only receive connections when im activly browsing the internet on the server machine.  If i let the server run idle for a length of time people stop being able to connect to it.  Any ideas?
[12:57] <mjancaitis> jtu - out from the center to the edge
[12:57] <TJ__> i know its sudo apt-get install
[12:57] <phenom> Has anyone heard of a proven method to stream video throughout your LAN or WAN, as is possible with audio via: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/145  ?
[12:57] <TJ__> but i dunno what the codecs names i needa install are called
[12:57] <tanath> jtu, it reads in circles, so you don't want a big streak along where it's trying to read
[12:57] <jmesquita> nickrud: Let me take a look at that. Thanks
[12:57] <scorpking> RoboticTao: or use screen on the server
[12:57] <phenom> Using netcat or the like.
[12:57] <Pici> !seveas | TJ__
[12:57] <ubotu> TJ__: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[12:57] <jmesquita> nickrud: Yes, but this still need an actual server connected to it

[12:58] <lgc_> How can I reconfigure my startup at the point where it looks for RAIDs? I remember it was the default option during the Feisty install, but it is the wrong one in my case and it keeps looking for it.
[12:58] <Pici> TJ__: w32codecs, which is probably what you want, is in that repo.
[12:58] <nickrud> jmesquita, yes.
[12:58] <macd> phenom, there are a multitude of streaming servers for linux, apple makes a nice one, and its multicast (so everyone can access it simultaneously)
[12:58] <bokl> can I somehow access the "properties > open with " in some other configuration tool (a .conf or something like that) that allows for more options than the gui?
[12:58] <tanath> jtu, so when you're done, use a little water & wipe it all clean, then dry it completely, and try again
[12:58] <jmesquita> nickrud: I am looking at buying an inexpensive printer server (appliance) and connecting to my wireless router
[12:58] <tanath> jtu, use something soft
[12:58] <macd> phenom, http://developer.apple.com/opensource/server/streaming/index.html
[12:58] <jtu> tanath: i'm using soft tissue

[12:58] <ubotu> TJ__: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[12:58] <nickrud> jmesquita, pick up a garbaged pII and put ubuntu server on it. Cheaper
[12:58] <kshah> command line cmd for the active processes? i need to kill mysql, it just crapped itself
[12:59] <TJ__> Pici, do i just use sudo apt-get install seveas ?
[12:59] <cosmodad> TJ__: medibuntu's got w32codecs if you need that (under 7.04)
[12:59] <tanath> jtu, erm, papery stuff might not be the best idea. a facecloth would be better
[12:59] <jtu> tanath: and the toothpaste is crest extra whitening. maybe that will help it shine

[12:59] <nickrud> mjancaitis, neither do I ;)
[12:59] <nj786> can anybody help me?
[12:59] <jmesquita> nickrud: Problem is I don't have the server and space for that

[01:00] <tanath> jtu, oh, i just remembered something. i heard varnish (i think?) works better. if you have it, and this doesn't work, try that

[01:00] <ward_> how do i completely remove a installed source? i did sudo make uninstall and apperantly some files stayed behind
[01:00] <scorpking> kshah: if you run it as root?
[01:00] <Pici> TJ__: follow the instructions on either the medibuntu site or the seveas site to get the codecs packages.
[01:00] <nickrud> jmesquita, 2nd is a show-stopper, yes :)
[01:00] <cosmodad> TJ__: it's a repository, a collection of packages
[01:01] <tanath> jtu, more insane that toothpase?! ;p

[01:01] <jtu> tanath: well, toothpaste you can get off with water. varnish?
[01:01] <scorpking> kshah: might be your hard drive. run dmesg | tail.
[01:01] <Pici> cosmodad: read what ubotu said above.
[01:01] <tanath> jtu, whatever that stuff is you use to polish furniture
[01:01] <ward_> i unisntalled a program because the GUI accidentally got deformed, so i reinstalled the prog and i have the same problem
[01:01] <jmesquita> nickrud: Yeah, that's why I was looking at buying a small device that would fit any shelf
[01:01] <TerraMaster>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35322/ Please read and help me (details inside also see the post correction thing for easy readings)
[01:02] <tanath> jtu, not varnish?

[01:02] <cosmodad> Pici: surely not, I'm aware of its contents :)
[01:02] <kshah> scorpking: maybe, dmesg didn't work either
[01:02] <tanath> jtu, no, it needs to be something thick that leaves a residue behind
[01:02] <mok0> 2
[01:02] <kshah> scorpking: command to get available space?
[01:02] <ward_> how can i remove a installed source please? sudo make uninstall didnt delete some config files (and i don't know where i can manually delete them)
[01:02] <Pici> cosmodad: Er, my bad. Sorry.
[01:02] <lgc_> RAID help?
[01:02] <cosmodad> Pici: np
[01:02] <scorpking> kshah: mount or df
[01:02] <jtu> tanath: my fingers do that
[01:02] <tanath> jtu, there's something that's meant for polishing that leaves a clear layer on stuff
[01:02] <mjancaitis> ward: sudo apt-get autoremove <name>
[01:02] <tanath> jtu, lol
[01:02] <luisbg> anybody knows a program to edit pdf's?
[01:03] <scorpking> kshah: lol, not mount.
[01:03] <tanath> luisbg, open office
[01:03] <luisbg> tanath, doesn't do the trick
[01:03] <phenom> Aple requires Authentication for dl of their streaming server :/ Blasphemy!
[01:03] <tanath> luisbg, why not?
[01:03] <kshah> scorpking: yeah I knew that was a type, but df shows that i have massively unused space
[01:03] <luisbg> tanath, openoffice exports to pdf but if I open one it goes crazy
[01:03] <kshah> scorpking: /dev/sda1 Use 4%
[01:03] <phenom> Aple :P Apple even.

[01:03] <tanath> luisbg, odd... define 'crazy' :P
[01:03] <scorpking> kshah: if you are out of space it will say read only fs or something.
[01:04] <luisbg> tanath, I see the code of the pdf
[01:04] <lgc_> RAID help? Anyone? Gee whiz!
[01:04] <cosmodad> luisbg: there's one to add text to PS files (which you can PDFs to), but it's not very sophisticated
[01:04] <nj786> can ANYBODY tell me why my printer is printing out TRASH?
[01:04] <scorpking> kshah: try touch filename
[01:04] <cosmodad> luisbg: it's called flpsed. Don't expect to much though, it's really simple
[01:04] <kshah> sudo touch filename -- bus error
[01:04] <neverblue> nj786, has it worked before?
[01:05] <jtu> tanath: i think i scratched it even more with the tissue
[01:05] <luisbg> cosmodad, gonna try
[01:05] <tanath> jtu, more toothpaste? :P
[01:05] <cosmodad> luisbg: you can convert pdf to ps with pdf2ps
[01:05] <scorpking> kshah: check ur hd and cables. does not sound good. if u need to recover use dd_rescue
[01:05] <nj786> neverblue, not properly
[01:05] <neverblue> nj786, but it has worked?
[01:05] <jtu> jtu: it's very soft tissue. maybe the baking soda is what did the damage
[01:05] <cosmodad> luisbg: flpsed supports direct exporting to PDF, though
[01:05] <nj786> neverblue, yes
[01:05] <neverblue> nj786, then you have the correct drivers, I imagine
[01:06] <TJ__> cosmodad after i run these commands in terminals i should have video codecs?
[01:06] <jtu> tanath: oh well, back to netflix it goes
[01:06] <neverblue> nj786, can you try and print from command line, and see if you get successful output?
[01:06] <nj786> neverblue, yes but why is it printing out trash?
[01:06] <cosmodad> TJ__: you will have most common
[01:06] <nj786> neverblue, command line?
[01:06] <neverblue> nj786, im sorry I cannot reply to that question until we try a few things
[01:06] <TJ__> ahhh okay should work then
[01:07] <cosmodad> TJ__: if it's the ones you need depends on the videos you're you'd like to watch
[01:07] <tanath> jtu, no polishing stuff? there are resurfacers you could try
[01:07] <jtu> it's ok
[01:07] <jtu> i'll just reorder
[01:07] <jtu> thanks for all the help guys
[01:07] <nj786> neverblue: ok, what do i do?
[01:07] <neverblue> nj786, yes, in linux, all operations can be done via the command line, and its great for debugging :)
[01:07] <tanath> jtu, oh well, i tried

[01:08] <tanath> luisbg, hrm, i just tried opening a pdf in openoffice, and it's hung on me :-/
[01:08] <nj786> neverblue: i don understand what a command line is
[01:08] <kshah> scorpking: command to restart the server remotely?
[01:08] <neverblue> nj786, heard the term shell, command line, cli ?
[01:09] <nj786> neverblue, nope
[01:09] <tanath> nj786, there's a program used to enter commands, like the old DOS on windows
[01:09] <neverblue> nj786, are you using ubuntu ?
[01:09] <luisbg> tanath, :( sorry
[01:09] <nj786> neverblue, lol oh u mean terminal lol
[01:09] <scorpking> kshah: you might not get back in. sudo init 6
[01:09] <dho_ragus> well, this is ubuntu?, linux for human beings?
[01:09] <tanath> nj786, go to Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[01:09] <dho_ragus> not everybody should have to use the CLI...
[01:09] <shamdotcom> anyone here ever have trouble with rhytmbox and discovering daap servers?
[01:09] <cosmodad> is there a list of packages of the seveas rep somewhere?
[01:09] <nj786> yes i know
[01:10] <neverblue> dho_ragus, 'have to use', no thats obvious, is it helpful, you bet
[01:10] <tanath> dho_ragus, it's good to have though
[01:10] <nj786> neverblue, ok what do i type in the command line?
[01:10] <PanicByte> does anyone know what LM and NOLM mean (not lan manager, something to do with hard drives)
[01:10] <neverblue> nj786, thats for you to find out yourself
[01:10] <neverblue> nj786, i dont have time to spoonfeed
[01:11] <nj786> neverblue, lol im soo confused  i mean i dont know what to type i dont even know what my problem is
[01:11] <dho_ragus> tanath, neverblue: definitely good to have, and i don't like that the terminal isn't in the task bar thing by default, but then i mostly run my linux boxes headless.  my mom, however......
[01:11] <tanath> nj786, what _is_ the problem?
[01:11] <neverblue> good luck tanath

[01:19] <tanath> xIke, there is...

[01:20] <tanath> xIke, one sec..
[01:20] <dho_ragus> KlrSpz_: are you downloading stuff over the network too?  i heard there's a problem with listening to audio and using the network at the same time
[01:20] <_shamay> hm

[01:22] <leonardo> how to install wine on the 64 bit ubuntu??
[01:22] <cosmodad> KlrSpz_: fine with me
[01:22] <xIke> tanath: gack, it says "couldn't lock list dir"  I'm running this as root...  ??
[01:22] <Jamesinator> KlrSpz_: It prompts me for a password and other stuff -- I don't know what Apache expects for it
[01:22] <cosmodad> Jamesinator: better adduser
[01:22] <andrewfashion> hello
[01:23] <tanath> xIke, make sure you don't have synaptic running while running it
[01:23] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: you should try doing `sudo dpkg-reconfigure apache2`...
[01:23] <cornell> Evening all...   Any opinions about a good money manager (well, mostly checkbook) application for Ubuntu?   Is kMyMoney as good as it gets?  (Opensource)
[01:23] <tanath> xIke, if you do, just install it from synaptic
[01:23] <nj786> cosmodad: can you help
[01:23] <andrewfashion> can anybody help me, i know this sounds dumb, but i am trying to install nvidia drivers, i just followed the help file
[01:23] <cosmodad> nj786: no, sorry
[01:23] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: i think that's the right command.  basically what that's saying is the www-data user doesn't exist, but it should've been created during install of apache.
[01:23] <xIke> tanath: yeah, this is it.  no package manager running.  I'll try synaptic though, thanks
[01:23] <andrewfashion> im on a 30" monitor, and i cant seem to get the max resolution
[01:23] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: Thanks, I'll try that
[01:23] <andrewfashion> it worked on fedora core 6 though
[01:23] <nj786> tanath: can you help?
[01:23] <andrewfashion> !nvidia
[01:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:23] <tracer> cornell have u tried gnucash?
[01:24] <tanath> nj786, printer prob right?
[01:24] <nj786> tanath: yes
[01:24] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: worst case you can add the user yourself then `chown -R www-data` on your web directory
[01:24] <tanath> nj786, only thing that comes to mind is a driver problem
[01:24] <tanath> nj786, make sure you're using the right driver
[01:24] <nj786> tanath: i dono why it prints our garbage i mean it prints out half of the line
[01:24] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: Yes, but it prompts me for a password and other stuff, so I don't know what Apache expects me to give it
[01:24] <cornell> No, tracer ... I've tried kMyMoney and wasn't impressed with downloading/importing qif... I tended to get dups.  You like gnucash?
[01:24] <leonardo> how to install winehq on the 64 bit of ubuntu
[01:25] <kjiungtubuntu> IchKamSahUndSiegte
[01:25] <scorpking> cornell: turbocash runs on wine but i don't think that's what ur looking for. :)
[01:25] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: yeah, that's why i recommend the dpkg-reconfigure option.  not sure if the package is "apache2" or something else
[01:25] <reallyjoel> Help, I did a boo-boo. I stole from one partition to create a new, and now I messed up both Grub and the whole linux installation. I dont mind formatting my linux partition and make a new install, but I need to save a couple of files first..
[01:25] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: I just did the reconfigure command... It returned nothing and it didn't fix the problem
[01:25] <cosmodad> anyone has any idea why I can run amarok remotely on my ubuntu server just fine with one user while with the other user the window hangs indefinitely after the wizard?
[01:26] <cosmodad> s/the other/another/
[01:26] <p0ss> hi there :D
[01:26] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: try it with apache2.2-common instead of apache2
[01:26] <tracer> had it recommended to me but huvnae had the time to get into it much, i have a pretty good excel sheet setup n it'l take a lot to move away from that
[01:26] <cornell> I understand that quicken runs on wine  too, scorpking, but I've not done wine and am not certain I want to open another "can o worms"
[01:26] <tanath> cosmodad, likely some kind of ownership/permissions prob
[01:26] <p0ss> so im finally doin it! after years of consideration i am finally installing linux :D
[01:26] <phenom> andrewfashion: Sounds like an x config problem, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:26] <mjancaitis> Hey guys - right now my feisty refuses to get to the login screen; it boots and loads correctly, but right before it gets to the login, I get a black screen and the "thinking" spinning cursor; my gdm.conf-custom file's tags are pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35320/; this happened after I had a lot of trouble with VMware, anybody know what I can do about it?
[01:26] <dho_ragus> p0ss: awesome. :D
[01:26] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: Lol. james@james-ubuntu:/home$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure apache2.2-common returns: chown: `www-data': invalid user
[01:26] <reallyjoel> p0ss : nice one
[01:26] <cosmodad> tanath: where? even if I skip the wizard and keep it unconfigured, it hangs
[01:26] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: LOL
[01:26] <tanath> p0ss, now's a better time than before :P
[01:26] <cosmodad> tanath: and the other user's $HOME perms are fine
[01:27] <bokl> ok, i asked running .url files (like .desktop URL files but made in Windows) earlier... Found this thread... Can someone help me through the steps there? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=495131
[01:27] <kanhh> i have a Packard Bell USB WiPen 802.11b/g and I cant get it working...it seems it cant authenticate to the router
[01:27] <tanath> cosmodad, is your other user in the audio group?
[01:27] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: I might just end up having to do a sudo dpkg --purge apache2 and rewrite my httpd.conf
[01:27] <scorpking> cornell: mmm... i don't know of any other programs u can try.
[01:27] <p0ss> I am feeling fairly lost, i was wondering if i could ask a couple of questions
[01:27] <randy026> I switched my screen res to 1440 X 900 and gnome looks fine but the fonts in firefox are so tiny its unreadable! How do I fix this?
[01:27] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: back up your conf before you undelete it
[01:27] <reallyjoel> p0ss just ask
[01:27] <vas> hey i write PHP alot, and what is a DEAD SIMPLE text editor that will display PHP easily... I want it to have some sort of code completion features
[01:27] <cosmodad> tanath: no, he isn't. I'll try that
[01:27] <dho_ragus> or just add the user to /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow
[01:27] <p0ss> i should read the faq, but windows is severely dead and refuses to open anything
[01:28] <acetech> can someone please help with printer driver setup?
[01:28] <dho_ragus> Jamesinator: on feisty my www-data user is #33
[01:28] <p0ss> ok :D
[01:28] <cornell> So scorpking, gnuCash and kMyMoney are it...  And there's not a clear winner?

[01:28] <kanhh> sorry
[01:28] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: Thanks for the tip, I backed up my conf files already. I'm just gonna blast away apache and remake everything though. :P
[01:28] <p0ss> well, once i've installed ubuntu, and have deleted vista, will my torrents resume from the same point?
[01:28] <acetech> i am able to setup printer as network printer but not local
[01:28] <scorpking> cornell: i'm afraid not, one of those will have to do...
[01:28] <dho_ragus> p0ss: yes
[01:29] <RoboticTao> reallyjoel: boot from a livecd and mount the filesystem then take what you need
[01:29] <cornell> K, thanks all
[01:29] <acetech> does anyone think they could help out with this, Please!
[01:29] <p0ss> and i guess a more pressing question is, will i need to reformat a partition to install ubuntu?
[01:29] <bokl> ... more specifically, can someone help me on how to create a new MIME type?
[01:29] <dho_ragus> p0ss: no
[01:29] <bokl> "I then 'associated' .urls with my script (I ended up creating a new MIME type for this, because trying to work with existing ones was giving me no end of grief). "
[01:29] <cosmodad> tanath: great, seems to work know. Thanks for the hint, would have never tried that
[01:30] <reallyjoel> RoboticTao : thanks ill try that, hope its still intact and readble
[01:30] <cosmodad> tanath: works now even
[01:30] <scipio> randy026, idea: increase the dpi in system-preferences-font. or change font size in firefox?
[01:30] <tanath> cosmodad, :)
[01:30] <dho_ragus> p0ss: it's possible that installing ubuntu will b0rk Vista.  i've had TONS of vista mutli-boot problems, even between windows systems
[01:30] <cosmodad> tanath: rather rude behavior, amarok/the server shouldn't have rejected me like that
[01:30] <randy026> How do I enlarge the font of the title bar in gnome?
[01:30] <scorpking> p0ss: make sure u backup all the torrent data before u format.
[01:30] <kanhh> i have a Packard Bell USB WiPen 802.11b/g and I cant get it working...it seems it cant authenticate to the router...can any1 help ??
[01:30] <randy026> Or a DPI setting?
[01:31] <acetech> i have an hp LJ4l and nothing is detecting for parallel....can someone help me out with the setup?
[01:31] <Don64> randy026: system -> preferences -> font
[01:31] <RoboticTao> Is there any way to issue a command remotely that looks like it has been issued locally? I tried appending & to the end of my command but it still attaches the process to my login.
[01:32] <scipio> randy026, system-pref-font click details - at the top dots per inch
[01:32] <bokl> no one knows how to create a custom MIME type for a file extension?
[01:32] <mjancaitis> Little help, guys - gdm is busted, hangs before login with a black screen and a spinning mouse cursor, and I can't seem to reconfigure it
[01:32] <tanath> cosmodad, lol
[01:32] <Pici> RoboticTao: `nohup commandname &` will not die when you close the terminal.
[01:32] <randy026> Don64,  yea i enlarged all of those but it doesnt affect the title bars or even this text in xchat
[01:32] <nj786> tanath: i am using the right driver, but i have no idea wy it doesnt print well
[01:32] <RoboticTao> Pici: Thank you
[01:32] <mikebot> Would it be inappropriate to ask a question about RhythmBox in here (even if I'm using it in ubuntu)?
[01:32] <kanhh> can any1 help with my wireless usb adapter ?? i cant get it workin =///!
[01:33] <p0ss> oh dear, my connection seems to have died, i am sorry i cant see your responses. Vista has indeed kicked the bucket for the last time.. lets hope this ubuntu download finishes before vista dies completely
[01:33] <cosmodad> RoboticTao: if you need to resume such a remote session, take a look at screen or dtach
[01:33] <Jamesinator> dho_ragus: Oh puh-LEEZE. After purging it through dpkg and then reinstalling it I still get an error where it expects the user to exist. I guess I can try blasting the common files too.
[01:33] <dho_ragus> RoboticTao: `screen` is a really great way to leave apps running
[01:33] <tanath> nj786, maybe there's a hardware issue with your printer, or your driver is buggy. perhaps reinstall the driver?
[01:33] <acetech> i have an hp LJ4l and nothing is detecting for parallel....can someone help me out with the setup?
[01:33] <andrewfashion> ugh
[01:33] <andrewfashion> :(
[01:33] <andrewfashion> cant figure this out
[01:33] <bulmer> kanhh: what have you done so far to troubleshoot?
[01:33] <andrewfashion> lol
[01:33] <phenom> andrewfashion: no luck with my link?
[01:34] <andrewfashion> autodetect thing is the first step, and its losing me already
[01:34] <bokl> I've been at this for hours now... I can'
[01:34] <andrewfashion> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:34] <andrewfashion> i went through the first step
[01:34] <nickrud> mjancaitis, have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm yet? (stab in the dark, I know)
[01:34] <phenom> yep
[01:34] <RoboticTao> dho_ragus: Thanks, I've been looking at screen for that today actually
[01:34] <mjancaitis> Yes
[01:34] <andrewfashion> and im already lost, the config pacakge appeared
[01:34] <acetech> can anyone help me out with setting up my HP printer?
[01:34] <andrewfashion> and its asking me all kinds of questions i dont even understand
[01:34] <phenom> the ddcprobe part is the important one.
[01:34] <tanath> anyone know why dragging stuff in browsers (firefox, epiphany) would crash X?
[01:34] <andrewfashion> it says its "auto detect" lol
[01:34] <bulmer> acetech: you have the right cable? plug it in.and tell us what you have
[01:35] <kanhh> bulmer i've tried to install drivers rt73, to change the wlan.conf myself and make some changes in another files as i search through foruns
[01:35] <mjancaitis> nickrud: says it's reloading config, changes will take effect when x sessions have ended, and then says "invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed"
[01:35] <phenom> andrewfashion: sudo install xresprobe,, then do the ddcprobe.
[01:35] <bulmer> kanhh: which other file?
[01:35] <joey383> my mouse on my ibm keeps freaking out, I get this in my messages log: psmouse.c: TrackPoint at isa0060/serio4/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 1 bytes away.
[01:35] <acetech> bulmer, i have printed from the printer using LPD on remote computers
[01:35] <bokl> to create a MIME type to force nautilus to open .url in firefox (or wherever), do I edied freedesktop.org.xml ? Or some other file in urs\share\mime\packages ? Or somethin different altogether?
[01:35] <mjancaitis> I've tried commenting out my gdm.conf-custom file, replacing the actual gdm.conf with the factory-gdm.conf, nothing works
[01:35] <usser> hello everybody
[01:36] <phenom> andrewfashion: Your x settings are just off I'm fairly sure.
[01:36] <kanhh> and i couldnt install ndiswrapper cuz it there are some files missing...i've installed every pakage that comes with ubuntu 7.06 =/
[01:36] <Don64> randy026: for xchat font size Settings -> preferences -> change monospacet 9 to whatever size u like  ie monospace 12
[01:36] <bulmer> acetech: whats the problem now then?
[01:36] <nickrud> mjancaitis, then you might want to consider cd /var/cache/apt/archives && sudo dpkg-i  --force-confnew gdm<tab>  (--force-confnew will force installing the config from the deb)
[01:36] <andrewfashion> whats ddcprove?
[01:36] <andrewfashion> ddcprobe
[01:36] <acetech> bulmer, i am trying to print local
[01:36] <andrewfashion> phenom: ddcprobe? sorry
[01:36] <kanhh> bulmer one at the network folder
[01:36] <bulmer> acetech: umm the printer has its own ldp daemon?
[01:36] <acetech> bulmer, it is not detecting lpt1 or a driver for the printer
[01:36] <kanhh> i dont remeber the name right now w8
[01:37] <mjancaitis> nickrud - just hit tab where you've written <tab>? and then enter?
[01:37] <malkav__> So I got counterstrike working great this morning, it was full screen and looking fine, now for some reason it's a small size window on my desktop, and i've tried the game's resolution, my desktop resolution, i cant make it stretch to the full screen anymore and dont know why
[01:37] <phenom> andrewfashion: It will display your true resolution settings, so you can correct x.
[01:37] <acetech> bulmer, cups detects the printer.....
[01:37] <bulmer> acetech: how is it connected to the pc?
[01:37] <foo> Hm, I am trying to mount an nfs mount and it says: mount: RPC: Timed out ... this has been working fine for a while, and all of a sudden it stopped working... as if some upgrade broke something. On the server, I can see that that the mount was authenticated in the logs... I have tried restarting portmap, nfs-common, and nfs-kernel-server... with no luck... any ideas?
[01:37] <andrewfashion> phenom: how do i ddcprobe?
[01:37] <randy026> Ok that works but title bars are still tiny ... Im using emerald.. does that have its own font setting?
[01:37] <acetech> bulmer, parallel cable
[01:37] <malkav__> bulmer:  is it an HP?
[01:37] <nickrud> mjancaitis, yes, that's tab completion: it will fill out the rest of the deb name
[01:37] <phenom> andrewfashion: Has solved a majority of my x ills.
[01:37] <malkav__> there's a special tool HP made for linux
[01:37] <acetech> malkav__ it is an HP LaserJet 4L
[01:37] <malkav__> you're in luck
[01:37] <tkooda> what's the difference between dist-upgrading dapper->edgy->fiesty vs. fresh fiesty install from iso?   (is "startup" init stuff not installed or something?)
[01:38] <phenom> follow that link I gave you, start at undetected monitor specs.
[01:38] <malkav__> acetech you want the package "hplip"
[01:38] <randy026> found it ... yes it does! thats why lol
[01:38] <andrewfashion> okay, thanks phenom
[01:38] <leonardo> can someone tell me how to install wine ??
[01:38] <andrewfashion> brb 1 min
[01:38] <p0ss> sorry i dropped out, vista has died completely
[01:38] <andrewfashion> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/91292
[01:38] <andrewfashion> that seems to be the exact issue i have.
[01:38] <acetech> malkav__, i already installed this
[01:38] <bulmer> acetech: thats pretty much straight forward to install then
[01:38] <kanhh> bulmer dunno if this helps http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/6863/screenshot1ml3.png
[01:38] <mjancaitis> nickrud: dpkg-i: command not found and tab completion did nothing but give me a system beep
[01:38] <andrewfashion> im on a 30" monitor, and my resolution is 2560 x1600
[01:38] <malkav__> acetech so whats the problem
[01:38] <etale> If I want to do  echo * > **, where ** requires admin, is that the same as echo * | sudo tee ** ?
[01:38] <phenom> andrewfashion: Gl. If you x is working,, all is well, it's normally a misconfig issue.
[01:38] <nickrud> mjancaitis, sorry, space between dpkg & the i
[01:38] <bulmer> kanhh: is the usb nic card detected at all? see dmesg
[01:38] <leonardo> can anybody help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:39] <p0ss> so will i need to format a partition? and how much room will i need. I am sorry if this is on the faq, explorer and firefox have died
[01:39] <phenom> andrewfashion: I bet ddcprobe will return something different. ;)
[01:39] <acetech> the drive is not detected when going to "/usr/bin/gnome-cups-manager"
[01:39] <nickrud> mjancaitis, space between dpkg & the -i :)
[01:39] <malkav__> leonardo:  I already gave you the HOWTO for installing counterstrike on AMD64
[01:39] <scipio> !wine | leonardo
[01:39] <ubotu> leonardo: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:39] <malkav__> leonardo:  did you read it?
[01:39] <kanhh> wlan0 Scan completed :
[01:39] <kanhh> Cell 01 - Address: 00:80:5A:37:0A:07
[01:39] <kanhh> yes i think so
[01:39] <kanhh> otherwise it would be able to detect the router
[01:39] <bulmer> kanhh: yeah i see that now..is your AP active?
[01:39] <acetech> bulmer  the drive is not detected when going to "/usr/bin/gnome-cups-manager"
[01:40] <mjancaitis> nickrud: got it; dpkg: error processing gdm (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directory. Errors were encountered while processing: gdm"
[01:40] <malkav__> leonardo:  there is no way that you had time to read that article after being in wine and asking the same question 3 minutes ago
[01:40] <bulmer> acetech: the cups manager can detect it noh?  on web browser you can configure it with  localhost:631
[01:40] <mjancaitis> Sorry, should say I got it to run, but then failed as you see there
[01:40] <phenom> andrewfashion: also, that link you gave me,, is doing what i suggested,, but use ddcprobe to find those variables, to add to xorg.conf
[01:40] <kanhh> bulmer sure it is i have another pc connected to it at the same time
[01:40] <bulmer> acetech: and log on
[01:40] <sparkie> evening guys
[01:40] <p0ss> hello sparkie
[01:40] <acetech> bulmer, i am able to detect on cups web admin
[01:40] <sparkie> i've just installed ubuntu on my laptop, but i dont appear to have any sound
[01:40] <bulmer> kanhh: but the other pc connected to it, is it also wireless?
[01:41] <kanhh> yes
[01:41] <sparkie> i've been into the sound properties and tried each option and tested each one, but to no avail
[01:41] <malkav__> acetech thats odd that it didnt work on hplip for you oh well as long as it worked
[01:41] <kanhh> also this pc on this WinXP is also wireless
[01:41] <bulmer> acetech: then from that web page, can you do a test print?
[01:41] <silverlord> 
[01:41] <kanhh> but when log on to ubuntu... =/ !
[01:41] <p0ss> can i ask where to go to check wether my hardware is supported?
[01:41] <nickrud> mjancaitis, ls /var/cache/apt/archives/gdm* , is it there?
[01:41] <malkav__> p0ss NEVER ask to ask, just ask
[01:41] <nj786> can anybody PLEASE PLEASE help me with my printer issue
[01:41] <acetech> bulmer, testing now
[01:42] <nj786> its PISSING ME OFF
[01:42] <bulmer> kanhh: did you try dhclient wlan0 ?
[01:42] <bokl> One last attempt to get more feedback on this... don't know how to phrase the questions better so it feels like a catch 22... I want to set ubuntu to open .url files (plaintext windows files containing a URL) in Firefox... This thread instructs on making a script and creating a new MIME type... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=495131 im lost on the latter, MIME creating part... If...
[01:42] <bokl> ...noone can help with that, perhaps you can recommend some other IRC channel I might try with such questions? Thanks.
[01:42] <sparkie> meh@gaim
[01:42] <acetech> bulmer, yes it printed test page
[01:42] <kanhh> i think so
[01:42] <Al00> Hey folks -- installed xgl and compiz-fusion on ubuntu 7.04 -- now I have no desktop icons... help :(
[01:42] <_tux> spakie, go inside a terminal then type: asoundconf list. It will show a list of available sound cards
[01:42] <mjancaitis> nickrud: No such file or directory :(
[01:42] <sparkie> did i miss anyones reply?
[01:42] <bulmer> acetech: so what do you mean you cant print locally?
[01:42] <sparkie> thx
[01:42] <kanhh> well...ive done some many things...staring yesterday's night...
[01:42] <andrewfashion> phenom: ddcrprobe returns nothing
[01:42] <p0ss> very well, where can i check if my hardware is supported?
[01:42] <andrewfashion> just blank
[01:42] <malkav__> acetech: if it printed the test page, you're fixed whats the issue or are you good
[01:42] <kanhh> *starting
[01:43] <andrewfashion> phenom; im running through the steps now though, reading it
[01:43] <acetech> bulmer, i mean within gnome programs to be more specific
[01:43] <sparkie> it shows nvidia
[01:43] <phenom> andrewfashion: try again without the grep
[01:43] <sparkie> _tux:
[01:43] <bulmer> kanhh: you have to prefix your responses towards me with my nick, or else i miss it..too many text flying by me
[01:43] <Don64> sparkie: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-205449.html
[01:43] <andrewfashion> phenom: it returned a long list
[01:43] <_tux> sparkie, After that type: asoundconf set-default-card "NAME" whereas NAME is the sound cards name
[01:43] <phenom> Sometimes the grep pdoesnt catch it the first time(for some reason :/)
[01:43] <scipio> !hardware | p0ss
[01:43] <ubotu> p0ss: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[01:43] <acetech> bulmer, gnome in general is not detecting my printer as being setup or there
[01:43] <desty> bon plus l parti mater la tv xD
[01:43] <p0ss> thankyou
[01:43] <phenom> andrew, now follow the links instructions.
[01:44] <andrewfashion> okay
[01:44] <andrewfashion> thanks
[01:44] <nickrud> mjancaitis, then sudo aptitude reinstall gdm ; that will download and reinstall it. apt has a setting for how long to hold an archive, and how large the archive space is; it's been lost. Then, do the dpkg -i --forceconfnew gdm<tab>
[01:44] <andrewfashion> let me try it :) and lets hope it works, hehe
[01:44] <phenom> add the monitor range variables to your xorg.conf.
[01:44] <lurking> could anyone tell me where i can change the default application that launches for a particular file type
[01:44] <reallyjoel> Using Live CD now.. I cant back my data up, becuase I cant write to NTFS. Can't find any package to install that lets me do this either. Any help_
[01:44] <Al00> Installed xgl and compiz-fusion on ubuntu 7.04 -- now I have no desktop icons... help :(
[01:44] <bulmer> acetech: umm cups broadcast those services internally..so am not sure what additional configs you may need to do to have gnome see that cups
[01:44] <sparkie> _tux: done
[01:44] <mjancaitis> nickrud: thanks, will get back to you in a bit
[01:44] <scipio> lurking, right click on the file-properties-open with-select your preffered program
[01:44] <_tux> sparkie, Once you set the default sound card type: alsamixer if it doesn't appear to be installed use sudo apt-get install alsamixer
[01:45] <leonardo> i think i'm getting through
[01:45] <nickrud> mjancaitis, I'll be out of here in about 20 minutes
[01:45] <GoodHabit> Hello. I need help, I need to move my os to other partition.
[01:45] <acetech> bulmer, could  the drive is not detected when going to "/usr/bin/gnome-cups-manager" .... have something to do with it?
[01:45] <lurking> cause i have a new text editor and dont want to use gedit anymore
[01:45] <GoodHabit> How i can do it?
[01:45] <_tux> sparkie, from there you should be able to raise the volume on the default sound card
[01:45] <sparkie> _tux:  its installed.. and is now running
[01:45] <acetech> bulmer, nm....
[01:45] <mjancaitis> nickrud: then perhaps I won't ;) here's hoping it works, else I'll talk to one of your colleagues here
[01:45] <_tux> sparkie, by using the up and down arrow keys to raise or lower the volume controls
[01:45] <phenom> I(am prolly by myself on this) have never had any linux other than Knoppix['s]  boot and config x correctly on any of my hardware. My monitor nor sound cards are never configured correctly.
[01:45] <lurking> scipio thanks, is there  a way to do this to all text based files
[01:45] <acetech> bulmer, in cups i see.... "Backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp does not exist!" ... could this have to do with it?
[01:46] <nickrud> mjancaitis, the only other thing I'd recommend is making sure your gdm-custom is gone
[01:46] <phenom> I had to tweak Ubuntu as well.
[01:46] <dho_ragus> phenom: are you using wacky hardware?
[01:46] <mjancaitis> nickrud: how exactly does one delete via cli
[01:46] <bulmer> acetech: hang on..let me check..
[01:46] <reallyjoel> Using Live CD now.. I cant back my data up, becuase I cant write to NTFS. I Can't find any package to install that lets me do this either. Any help?
[01:46] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[01:46] <mjancaitis> I just don't know the command
[01:46] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[01:46] <_tux> spakie, you can also test the speakers of your sound card by typing: speaker-test inside a terminal
[01:46] <nickrud> mjancaitis, rm <--
[01:46] <sparkie> _tux: ok.. done.. lemme try speaker-test
[01:46] <Bo1> thank you guys my ubuntu carshed
[01:46] <scipio> lurking, if you do it on a txt all your txt file will open that way. but i guess you have to do it once for each doc/txt/whatever else you have
[01:46] <dho_ragus> man, what's with all the splits today?
[01:46] <mjancaitis> nickrud: so rm /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom and /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf-custom?
[01:46] <andrewfashion> phenom: i cant find my vertical sync, and horizontal sync on my monitor
[01:47] <andrewfashion> not in the manual or on apples website
[01:47] <sparkie> _tux: nothing yet :/
[01:47] <mjancaitis> nickrud: cuz there are both of those
[01:47] <dho_ragus> yaaaaaay, together again
[01:47] <dho_ragus> one big happy family
[01:47] <scipio> !ntfs-3g | reallyjoel
[01:47] <ubotu> reallyjoel: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:47] <nickrud> mjancaitis, yes
[01:47] <kanhh> freenode flipped
[01:47] <andrewfashion> phenom: i cant find my vertical sync, and horizontal sync on my monitor
[01:47] <PriceChild> !netsplit

[01:47] <mjancaitis> nickrud: ok, thanks
[01:47] <bulmer> acetech:  yeah that could prevent you..i have that directory
[01:47] <GoodHabit> Hello. I need help, I need to move my os to other partition.  ) Sorry 4 repeating,
[01:47] <mjancaitis> nickrud: catch you on the flip side
[01:47] <phenom> dho_ragus: well kinda :) An old MAG and AOC monitor and a new computer. In my experience, your hard pressed to get support for new hardware.
[01:47] <reallyjoel> scipio: thanks
[01:47] <h1st0> adrenaline: it should be on the sticker on the back.  If not you can search for it on google to find it.
[01:47] <nickrud> mjancaitis, interesting that there's two; I'm gonna look at that
[01:47] <scipio> reallyjoel, you're welcome
[01:47] <_tux> sparkie: On the top right corner of your desktop right-click on the volume applet and click on preferences try setting the default card from there
[01:47] <dho_ragus> phenom: yeah, and mac hardware too.
[01:47] <Bo1> some1 help me out
[01:48] <dho_ragus> phenom: oh.. you said mag...
[01:48] <lurking> scipio, anyway to do that to all text based files?
[01:48] <mjancaitis> nickrud: I'll stick around for a couple minutes while you check then
[01:48] <_tux> also make sure the volume isn't low or muted sparkie
[01:48] <reallyjoel> scipio: needed to select universal packages.. sigh
[01:48] <phenom> Yes, MAG brand of monitor
[01:48] <acetech> bulmer, i wonder if it is missing a "class" from the cups webmin
[01:48] <Bo1> somebody.help.me.out
[01:48] <lullis> Hello, everyone. I am trying to use my desktop (running ubuntu feisty) with two ethernet cards to share the connection with a laptop...
[01:48] <andrewfashion> ?
[01:48] <scipio> lurking, if you do it on a txt all your other txt file will open that way. but i guess you have to do it once for  doc/txt/whatever else you have
[01:48] <andrewfashion> any idea phenom
[01:48] <mjancaitis> Bo1: what's your question?
[01:48] <Bo1> going 2 eat brb
[01:48] <andrewfashion> where i can find my sync rates or whatever
[01:48] <lullis> Both cards seem to be working...
[01:49] <nickrud> mjancaitis, just do the one in /etc/gdm; the other is a symbolic link to /etc/gdm;  ls -l /etc/X11/gdm will show you what I mean
[01:49] <p0ss> my laptop isn't supported, so am i to assume that it wont work?
[01:49] <phenom> andrewfashion, so ddcprobe shows you no monitorrange chars?
[01:49] <sparkie> _tux: yeah tried all the usual basic stuff.. still nothing
[01:49] <mjancaitis> nickrud: gotcha, thanks again
[01:49] <bulmer> acetech i dont know..but the drivers should be in that dir
[01:49] <dho_ragus> lullis: if you don't need NAT, just use `brctl` to bridge your two ethernet cards
[01:49] <_tux> sparkie, Do you know the name of your onboard audio or sound card
[01:49] <andrewfashion> nope
[01:49] <phenom> andrewfashion: I had to double check,, twice my self. :)
[01:49] <andrewfashion> only shows the modes
[01:49] <acetech> bulmer, should i do a complete removal of cups and re-install?
[01:49] <andrewfashion> ill try again
[01:49] <lullis> and I installed firestarter to setup the connection sharing.
[01:49] <sparkie> its an nvidia HD-audio
[01:49] <lurking> scipio, thanks again i was hoping for a more general fix but i guess that will do
[01:49] <andrewfashion> !pastebin
[01:49] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:49] <bulmer> acetech yeah, why not, it should be painless
[01:50] <lullis> But everytime firestarter starts... I get a "device eth1 not working"
[01:50] <andrewfashion> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35328/
[01:50] <scipio> lurking, sorry that's the only way i know it :) others might know a better way
[01:50] <dho_ragus> lullis: do you need NAT?  brctl is pretty simple to use.
[01:50] <dho_ragus> lullis: i don't know what firestarter is though, but it does not sound easy to use.
[01:50] <notwen> so no one knows if connecting to a wifi or wired network launches a process that runs as long as you're connected to that network?
[01:50] <reallyjoel> scipio: but now that ive installed, i still cant write to ntfs partitions, even though i unmount and then mount
[01:50] <Bo1> mjancaitis: i enable "e-geforce fx5200" from restricted drivers manger. now my ubuntu wont start
[01:50] <dho_ragus> notwen: no, that is not the case.  creating a network connection does not start an independent process.
[01:51] <bulmer> lullis: ip a  and see if your eth0 is on the list
[01:51] <lullis> Firestarter is a app to setup the firewall. I guess it changes the config in ip_forwarding.
[01:51] <_tux> sparkie: did you set it correctly when you were using the command asoundconf set-default-card or were there other cards available
[01:51] <wweasel> Hey: I need some help getting my laptop's VGA external monitor to work at a different resolution from the internal monitor in xorg.conf
[01:51] <notwen> wireless nor wired does?
[01:51] <acetech> bulmer, which drivers do you have in this directory?
[01:51] <lullis> yeah... eth0 is on the list...
[01:51] <bulmer> acetech hang on..lete me check
[01:51] <lullis> with an ip assigned.
[01:51] <MrCollins> I havea  package I am trying to install and it needs ubuntu's "libc" packages....
[01:52] <bulmer> lullis: ip a  and see if your eth1 is on the list?
[01:52] <dho_ragus> notwen: i'm not sure about linux wifi, that whole area seems to be a mess, but fundamentally, *nix systems don't need independent processes for making network connections.
[01:52] <lullis> but ip1 has just MAC info.
[01:52] <p0ss> so guys, my laptop isn't supported, should i assume that ubuntu wont work?
[01:52] <sparkie> _tux: just one card..
[01:52] <dho_ragus> notwen: networking is built into the kernel itself.
[01:52] <_tux> sparkie: any playback errors when using the speaker-test command
[01:52] <lullis> May I paste the output here?
[01:52] <mjancaitis> nickrud: still around?
[01:52] <MrCollins> which apt-get install will let me get the libc files I need for kernel interface recompilse
[01:52] <kanhh> bulmer can it be cause of the drivers?? i dont know wtf is happening...it just cant connect to the network on ubuntu!
[01:52] <nickrud> mjancaitis, yes
[01:52] <acetech> bulmer, i am wondering if i should symlink something to hp
[01:52] <dho_ragus> p0ss: if you want to know if ubuntu will work, boot up a livecd and try.
[01:52] <notwen> would gnome invoke any process once a connection is detected?
[01:52] <mjancaitis> nickrud: how do I enable networking while in recovery mode's root cli? I can't connect to the aptitude servers
[01:52] <sparkie> _tux: doesn't seem to be, although it keeps testing front-left only :/
[01:53] <dho_ragus> p0ss: the livecd will function almost exactly like ubuntu will after it's been installed.
[01:53] <phenom> andrewfashion: Ok, I have never not seen ddcprobe give the refresh.horizon rates, lets see.
[01:53] <kbuntu> can anyone help me with desktop effects ?
[01:53] <dho_ragus> notwen: gnome might have a process that is actively looking for known access points and checking for associated auto-join configs.
[01:53] <bulmer> kanhh: its possible..but when you do a iwlist wlan0 scan  it detects anything?
[01:53] <mjancaitis> nickrud: should I be using startx and going into a root x session to get it?
[01:53] <nickrud> mjancaitis, good question, I've never had to try that :)  you can try invoke-rc.d networking start
[01:53] <p0ss> so i spend 4 hours downloading the livecd just to see if it works?
[01:53] <kanhh> wlan0 Scan completed :
[01:53] <kanhh> Cell 01 - Address: 00:80:5A:37:0A:07
[01:53] <kanhh> ESSID:"227-6E"
[01:53] <kanhh> etc..
[01:53] <dho_ragus> p0ss: you could spend 4 hours sleeping, then wake up and see if it works.
[01:54] <bulmer> acetech: the hp file on that dir is not symlinked on mine..its a file of about 18416 bytes in size
[01:54] <andrewfashion> i know its weird
[01:54] <dho_ragus> !pastebin | kanhh
[01:54] <ubotu> kanhh: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:54] <sparkie> mmm sleep
[01:54] <andrewfashion> apples websites doesnt even show them
[01:54] <andrewfashion> =[
[01:54] <p0ss> lol ok ok..  i guess anything is better than this vista mess
[01:54] <kanhh> dho_ragus c'mon...
[01:54] <KlrSpz_> wireless is a pain
[01:54] <bulmer> kanhh: there you go, it detected on AP..
[01:54] <KlrSpz_> in linux
[01:54] <kanhh> bulmer yes it detected
[01:54] <_tux> sparkie: go here and see if your sound card is supported http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
[01:54] <kanhh> but it cant connect!!
[01:54] <phenom> andrewfashion: It would be advised to back up your xorg.conf first, but if you know your way around vi/nano you'll be ok if your x doesn;t start.,, go ahead and add say:
[01:54] <dho_ragus> kanhh: if we were all pasting in here and saying "c'mon" then there would be a flood of redundant config data
[01:54] <nickrud> mjancaitis, and if that doesn't work, when you start in normal mode, hit ctl-alt-f1, that should get you a terminal
[01:54] <mikebot> Is there a program in ubuntu that works like a post-it-notes type thing?
[01:54] <phenom> HorizSync	28-73
[01:54] <phenom> VertRefresh	43-60
[01:54] <acetech> bulmer, what is the name of it?
[01:54] <bulmer> kanhh: next is to   dhclient wlan0
[01:55] <kbuntu> Hey guys, please i can't start desktop effects!
[01:55] <bulmer> acetech:  hp
[01:55] <mjancaitis> nickrud: configured network interfaces correctly, still can't resolve apt servers
[01:55] <RoboticTao> p0ss: I would be very surprised if your laptop won't run linux. You might have one or two problems if it isn't "supported" but I bet it will run it fine.
[01:55] <mikebot> Like digital post-it-notes..
[01:55] <phenom> To your xorg.conf under the monitor section, and restart x
[01:55] <mjancaitis> nickrud: also no chance to get a terminal under normal boot, it goes to that black screen and everything's unresponsive
[01:55] <Random832> with beryl, how do i get window decorations
[01:55] <kanhh> and then ? (i have to reboot and go to ubuntu...)
[01:55] <Random832>  [19:55]  []  [1] 
[01:55] <Random832> [(status)] 
[01:55] <mjancaitis> nickrud: is this something I can get off the CD?
[01:55] <Random832> oops
[01:55] <andrewfashion> think thatll suffice 2560x1600 resolution?
[01:55] <nickrud> mjancaitis, yes!
[01:55] <andrewfashion> or work*
[01:55] <acetech> bulmer, that is not something that is easy to find :|
[01:55] <mjancaitis> nickrud: yes to the CD?
[01:56] <nickrud> mjancaitis, yes!!
[01:56] <MrCollins> does anyone know which libc libs i need in order to compile a kernel interface layer for NVIDIA drivers?
[01:56] <mjancaitis> nickrud: sweet, back in a bit ;)
[01:56] <acetech> bulmer, do you have a LaserJet?
[01:56] <nickrud> mjancaitis, good call, I was brain dead
[01:56] <_tux> mikebot: Something like Tomboy notes click on Applications >> Accessories >> Tomboy notes
[01:56] <phenom> andrewfashion: I would believe so.
[01:56] <bulmer> acetech it may have come with the install of cups..it includes bunch of drivers...
[01:56] <mjancaitis> nickrud: have yourself a good night, thanks for the help
[01:56] <Lightenix> hi, anyone knows what package i must install soo i can use program "deb" ?
[01:56] <phenom> andrewfashion: But, again, try to add the horizon and refresh lines to your conf.
[01:56] <bulmer> acetech:  i have the 4si and another laserjet 4
[01:57] <Clearzen> Lightenix: uhh, dpkg will install .debs and work with them if that's what you mean
[01:57] <nickrud> mjancaitis, if every thing goes well, congrats. If not, well, I'll be around after 9pm utc
[01:57] <mikebot> _tux: Thanks.
[01:57] <PriceChild> Lightenix, what are you really tryign to do?
[01:57] <acetech> bulmer, i have done a re-install of all cups, hpoj, hplij. and foomatic
[01:57] <nickrud> mjancaitis, tomorrow, that is
[01:57] <sparkie> /server
[01:57] <_tux> welcome
[01:57] <andrewfashion> phenom: default is already 43-60
[01:57] <GoodHabit> Help please with migrating-to-ubuntu...
[01:57] <mjancaitis> nickrud: gotcha. Like I said, here's hoping this works, thanks again
[01:57] <bulmer> acetech..hang on..let me think of where you may be able to get that
[01:57] <kbuntu> Please guys help me start Desktop Effects!
[01:57] <wweasel> Hello: I need some help getting my laptop's external monitor working at a different resolution than the LCD in xorg.conf
[01:57] <Lightenix> well im trying to follow that guide :) http://vorian.org/?p=82
[01:57] <acetech> bulmer, thanks
[01:57] <MrCollins> wweasel: whats the problem
[01:58] <PriceChild> Lightenix, those aren't commands
[01:58] <_tux> seems I really need to organize my bookmarks in firefox lol
[01:58] <Vorian> ahem...
[01:58] <PriceChild> Lightenix, those are things you should add to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:58] <PriceChild> Lightenix, further help with vorian in #ubuntu-effects
[01:58] <Lightenix> ohh right
[01:58] <Lightenix> thanks :)
[01:58] <PriceChild> Lightenix, be careful
[01:58] <wweasel> MrCollins: Both screens are detected, they are displayed as identical images, but I would like the external at 1280x1024 and the internal at 1024x768
[01:59] <bulmer> acetech  it seems like it came out of one of the hpij ppd's
[01:59] <kbuntu> PriceChild, can you please teach me how to make Desktop Effects work ?
[01:59] <MrCollins> just edit your xorg.conf file
[01:59] <PriceChild> kbuntu, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[01:59] <mjancaitis> nickrud: real quick, if I have to go into the LiveCD to get back into a networked interface, how do I overwrite all my regular install's GDM files?
[01:59] <dho_ragus> kbuntu: did you read a tutorial on how to enable desktop effects?
[01:59] <MrCollins> sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:59] <phenom> andrewfashion: Not to be repeative, but you don't even see monitorid: frwd09196322 via: ddcprobe?
[01:59] <wweasel> MrCollins: I know that's what has to be done, I just don't know enough to do it without aid. I only have one Monitor and one Screen section
[01:59] <dho_ragus> kbuntu: that's how i got them working.... step by step instructions.
[01:59] <Puppy_> are virtual machines legal in the usa?
[02:00] <dho_ragus> Puppy_: yes.
[02:00] <bulmer> acetech for example /usr/share/ppd/hpijs/HP/HP-Color_LaserJet_2550-hpijs.ppd
[02:00] <Puppy_> dho_ragus: really? are you sure?
[02:00] <willofthewisp_tm> .msg nickserv identify password
[02:00] <MrCollins> wweasel: google ubuntu dual monitors
[02:00] <dho_ragus> Puppy_: yes..... vmware is an american company.
[02:00] <wweasel> MrCollins: I suppose I need two, one for the internal and one for the external. And then I need to tell it how to treat them in Server Layout
[02:00] <Puppy_> dho_ragus: ok thanks!
[02:00] <acetech> bulmer, i am now deleting from cups webmin and reinstalling printer in there
[02:00] <bulmer> acetech okay ..good luck
[02:01] <wweasel> MrCollins: I have. Mostly explains how to have them as an extended desktop, focuses on either Nvidia or ATI (mine is intel).
[02:02] <wweasel> MrCollins: Also, my laptop would have to accept it as being hotswappable, if that's possible
[02:02] <kbuntu> dho_ragus, where can i find that tutorial ?
[02:03] <_tux> I've got a question is there anyway I can make the font bigger in xterm?
[02:03] <MrCollins> wweasel: have you gone through the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[02:03] <MrCollins> to reconfgure X?
[02:03] <wweasel> MrCollins: No, why should that be necessary?
[02:03] <dho_ragus> kbuntu: google.com
[02:04] <MrCollins> wweasel: it lets you setup your xorg.conf file
[02:04] <MrCollins> it will auto detect your monitors
[02:04] <MrCollins> but
[02:04] <MrCollins> make a backup first
[02:05] <phenom> "try" to attempt your monitor. And lies to x if it can't.
[02:05] <MrCollins> sudo cp -r /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-backup
[02:05] <phenom> blah
[02:05] <wolferine> _tux, i dont see why not
[02:05] <wweasel> MrCollins: I'll try that! thanks :)
[02:06] <_tux> wolferine: Seems I already found out
[02:06] <PriceChild> !away > Paddy_EIRE
[02:06] <MrCollins> does anyone know which libc libraries i need for recompiling
[02:06] <wolferine> ah, good :)
[02:06] <_tux> easier on the eyes now
[02:06] <MrCollins> wweasel: make sure u make a backup
[02:06] <MrCollins> dont say I didnt warn you
[02:06] <_tux> it was likeat 9pt or lower it seemed
[02:06] <wweasel> MrCollins: I already do have one
[02:06] <MrCollins> wweasel: cool man.
[02:06] <_tux> ;-)
[02:06] <wweasel> MrCollins: Thanks
[02:07] <E-mu> .
[02:07] <dho_ragus> MrCollins: when i'm not sure what libs i need, i just try to make it.  when it fails i grab a keyword from the failure notice, then `apt-cache search keyword` and install that library or whatever
[02:07] <_tux> ugh it seems it didn't make the font-size permanent
[02:07] <dho_ragus> MrCollins: repeat ad infinitum
[02:08] <xIke> "could not resolve 'us.archive.ubuntu.com"  ideas?
[02:08] <acetech> bulmer, could classes in cups webmin have anything to do with this>?
[02:09] <gluttony> does anyone know how i can access my linux files from windows?
[02:09] <bulmer> acetech: i dont think so
[02:09] <MrCollins> dho_ragus: just asking man sorry if I repeat hah
[02:09] <bulmer> acetech: what if you do   lpr -p nameofprinter sample.txt  ?
[02:09] <nephish> hey gents, i have a huge folder that i would like in its own partition, is there a way i can do this without wiping out everything in there ? i only have two partions, / and /swap  right now
[02:09] <dho_ragus> MrCollins: no problem man, you gotta get an answer.  i was just suggesting a possible quicker way to find out
[02:10] <mjancaitis> Hey guys - I'm stuck in the recovery mode's cli, is there any way I can tell aptitude to pull from my CD drive when it fails to get it from the network connection?
[02:10] <GoodHabit>  How to resize ext3 partitions?
[02:10] <ron_o> gluttony, I heard of an application that can read ext2 and ext3 from windows. But that was some years ago. Can't remember its name.
[02:10] <ron_o> GoodHabit, gparted.
[02:10] <xIke> is the ubuntu apt site down?
[02:10] <MrCollins> dho_ragus: cool man. i did some digging and apparently i need some nvidia-glx-legacy in order for this gf2 card to work heh
[02:10] <nephish> GoodHabit, ron_o thanks
[02:10] <ron_o> make a backup and go to bed when you do. :)
[02:10] <acetech> bulmer, it is unable to access file or directory for "hp"
[02:10] <mjancaitis> no, just can't get networking to work in cli
[02:11] <GoodHabit> ron_o: Gparted can do that for sure?
[02:11] <ron_o> yah.
[02:11] <bulmer> acetech does that file hp exist?
[02:11] <ron_o> for sure.
[02:11] <nephish> This is a one shot pass / fail , 49 GB of data
[02:11] <mjancaitis> So really either solution will work for me
[02:11] <ron_o> but it has to be in the GUI.
[02:11] <ron_o> cfdisk can't.
[02:11] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Wired or wireless?
[02:11] <mjancaitis> wired
[02:11] <xIke> apt-get and aptitude aren't able to connect to us.archive.ubuntu.com.  any ideas?
[02:11] <ron_o> but it's best to make a backup of the contents. :)
[02:11] <ron_o> I did it w/o a backup, but I knew the risks.
[02:11] <acetech> bulmer, i did "sudo cp HP-LaserJet_4L-hpijs.ppd /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp"
[02:12] <ron_o> make sure you dont have a power outage or have a UPS.
[02:12] <Jordan_U> xIke, THe us mirror goes down every once and a while, try the canadian mirror
[02:12] <xIke> Jordan_U: how do I do that?
[02:12] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: wired
[02:12] <bulmer> acetech:  no not that way..thats now where ppd file goes
[02:12] <Bo1> jordan_u:i got another problem from listenning some of this guys
[02:13] <bulmer> acetech you have an ftp server? let me transfer what i have (hp) to you
[02:13] <Jordan_U> xIke, Actually, I just tried and us.archive.ubuntu.com works fine for me
[02:13] <Bo1> jordan_u:can u help me out
[02:13] <ron_o> wow, this channel has really slowed down from when I was in here 18 months ago.
[02:13] <acetech> bulmer, can you email it to me?
[02:13] <ron_o> I guess most issues are solved and the user base is maturing.
[02:13] <bulmer> acetech sure...give me your email
[02:13] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Do you know what the ethernet cards ID is ( most likely eth0 ) ?
[02:13] <mjancaitis> ron_o: and google is our friend
[02:14] <Bo1> can some1 here help me out
[02:14] <ron_o> mjancaitis, and it hasn't always been?
[02:14] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U - yes, eth0 definitely
[02:14] <xIke> Jordan_U: hrm, my internet was down and I had no idea.  thanks :P
[02:14] <acetech> bulmer, jonathan at ipanzica dot com
[02:14] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Ask your question, if anyone can help with your problem they will
[02:14] <mjancaitis> ron_o: so many hits to every problem nowadays though; I dunno about in the past
[02:14] <ron_o> that's true. The wiki is paying off. It was quite the organized wiki too.
[02:14] <ron_o> it *is*.
[02:14] <doug__> !ask | bo1
[02:14] <ubotu> bo1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:14] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Then you should be able to just "sudo ifup eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0"
[02:15] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: thanks bud, I'll try it
[02:15] <Bo1> how do i disable a drive that i enable from the restricted drivers manger useing recovery mode
[02:15] <andrewfashion> andrewfashion: Not to be repeative, but you don't even see monitorid: frwd09196322 via: ddcprobe?
[02:15] <andrewfashion> phenom: no i dont =[
[02:15] <freezey> god dammit i am getting some errors when trying to install this dam OS
[02:16] <freezey> Buffer I/O error on device sr0 logical block
[02:16] <doug__> Bo1 sys>admin>restricted drivers

[02:16] <rickey> hello is there a way to make my chat window text bigger so i can read it better
[02:17] <ron_o> rickey, it's called fonts. :)
[02:17] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: works wonderfully, thanks a bunch
[02:17] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, np

[02:17] <scotte> anyone running ubuntu on innotek virtualbox?
[02:17] <andrewfashion> phenom: i changed the numbers
[02:17] <ron_o> from the preference section.
[02:17] <doug__> ron_o,  at the bottom drag then box
[02:17] <ron_o> read it.
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Ok, ATI or Nvidia?
[02:17] <andrewfashion> phenom: restarted GDM, nothing yet
[02:17] <Bo1> jordan_u:nvidia
[02:18] <Jordan_U> !anyone | scotte
[02:18] <ubotu> scotte: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:18] <wolferine> how can I change the resolutions in my tty's ?
[02:18] <rickey> thank you ron
[02:18] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Ok, in recovery mode run this command and choose "nv" ( not "nvidia" ) as the driver when asked "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[02:19] <MrCollins> how do I install kernel sources?
[02:19] <rickey> much better for ma now
[02:19] <kbuntu> how can i activate more workspaces ?
[02:19] <Jordan_U> !framebuffer | wolferine
[02:19] <ubotu> wolferine: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[02:19] <doug__> !kernal | MrCollins
[02:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kernal - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:20] <doug__> !kernel | MrCollins
[02:20] <ubotu> MrCollins: 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
[02:20] <Clearzen> How can I determine the incoming and outgoing transfer rate via terminal?
[02:20] <rickey> ron as you can tell i am a full newbe to linux and ubuntu
[02:20] <scotte> how do i make the virtualbox running ubuntu under xp have a proper fullscreen ie no black borders?
[02:20] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, What do you need the kernel sources for?
[02:20] <phead>  hello all, I have a newbie question: I downloaded an app (powerjournal) so now I have a "setup.bin" file on my desktop. How do I install?
[02:20] <Jordan_U> scotte, The resolution dialog doesn't give your resolution as an option?
[02:20] <Bo1> jordan_u:am going to try that ill be back in 5 mins max is 10mins
[02:21] <Clearzen> phead: You want a .deb package instead
[02:21] <troythetechguy> I just installed Mint, and upon running updates, I'm told the software cannot be authenticated.  What's up with this?
[02:21] <rickey> i am upset about not being able to use yahoo cahtroons any more
[02:21] <Bo1> jordan_u:what about fixing it
[02:21] <ShockUBT_> why does "sudo ./executable" not work for me?
[02:21] <ShockUBT_> ./executable tells me access denied, but sudo ./executable tells me "command not found"
[02:22] <bulmer> acetech its forwarded to your mail box
[02:22] <scotte> Jordan_U the resolution is fine, its just that when i go into fullscreen mode there are black borders around the edges ie the fullscreen mode is the same size as the window mode with big borders
[02:22] <troythetechguy> ShockUBT_: do you have read and execute permission?
[02:22] <phead> clearzen: I assumed so, but there wasn't any .deb available on the project page. No other options?
[02:22] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: It is asking me for libc libraries
[02:22] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, What is?
[02:22] <MrCollins> i am trying to install the binary package from nvidia
[02:22] <Clearzen> phead: you can download the source and compile
[02:22] <rickey> can anyone here talk about that?
[02:22] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, Just use restricted manager
[02:22] <Clearzen> phead: Or make your own .deb from the source
[02:22] <ShockUBT_> troythetechguy: ah, no i don't.
[02:22] <MrCollins> and it needs some libc stuff in order to compile a kernel layer interface for the legacy drivers
[02:22] <ShockUBT_> troythetechguy: thanks
[02:22] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: doesnt work man
[02:22] <MrCollins> i have been down that route
[02:22] <troythetechguy> ShockUBT_: You're welcome.
[02:23] <MrCollins> the drivers for the nvidia-glx are not for my old card
[02:23] <MrCollins> I have a Ge FOrce 2 card
[02:23] <mjancaitis> son of a beech
[02:23] <andrewfashion> ugh
[02:23] <doug__> ARGH
[02:23] <phead> Clearzen: ok... can you give me some advice or a howto? :)
[02:23] <andrewfashion> can anyone help me fix my 30" monitor screen resolution, lol :(
[02:23] <wolferine> how can I change the resolutions in my tty's ?
[02:23] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: any clue?
[02:24] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: dunno if you know how to fix this, but right now my gdm appears to be screwed up, and when I try to remove and reinstall, nothing different happens; dpkg-reconfiguring it gives me this output: invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed
[02:24] <rickey> boy i wish i had a 30 inch montor
[02:24] <Clearzen> phead: Yeah, what do you want to install?
[02:24] <wolferine> andrewfashion, what video card?
[02:24] <doug__> i wish i had a 30'' on this laptop lol

[02:25] <troythetechguy> Does anyone know anything about Mint Linux?
[02:25] <wolferine> andrewfashion, did you install the drivers, and how?
[02:25] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, There is also nvidia-glx-legacy
[02:25] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, There is also nvidia-glx-legacy
[02:25] <rickey> anyone here use yahoo chat sence the new changes
[02:25] <andrewfashion> i followed the instructions NVIDIA gave, and it worked with fedora core 6
[02:25] <rickey> and how
[02:25] <andrewfashion> the drivers installed fine
[02:25] <andrewfashion> resoltuion worked fine
[02:25] <andrewfashion> but i got rid of fedora
[02:25] <wolferine> andrewfashion, keep the posts to one line please
[02:25] <andrewfashion> now im on the new ubuntu
[02:25] <andrewfashion> oh sorry
[02:25] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, sudo killall gdm
[02:26] <wolferine> now, please answer my question, directly
[02:26] <troythetechguy> wolferine: Any idea why I receive the message, "software cannot be authenticated"?
[02:26] <andrewfashion> now im on ubuntu, same machine, did the same thing, tried to install the drivers. but i got the error "ERROR: cannto find libc header files" or something
[02:26] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: no process killed
[02:26] <Harkins> What's the name of the app that locks idle desktops?
[02:26] <wolferine> troythetechguy, you dont have to direct questions at me, thanks
[02:26] <Clearzen> phead: Download the source code from that sourceforge page
[02:26] <silvertip257> My live cd keeps crapping out and stopping at the "initramfs" stage ... it says cannot "accessy tty" before that ... please help
[02:26] <Clearzen> then sudo aptitude install build-essential
[02:26] <kbuntu> Can someone please tell me how can i use the desktop effects cube? Is activated and running.. but i can't figure out what do i have to press
[02:26] <troythetechguy> wolferine: Why not?
[02:26] <wolferine> andrewfashion, please scroll up and read my question again, and provide a response, thanks
[02:26] <mjancaitis> kbuntu: control + arrow
[02:27] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: how do I make sure nvidia-glx-legacy is enabled?
[02:27] <wolferine> troythetechguy, i hope your not here to cause trouble
[02:27] <salotron> hello, I am a new UBUNTU user and I want to ripp a CD to MP3, what package o librery do I need?
[02:27] <mjancaitis> kbuntu: if it's anything like beryl, anyway
[02:27] <wolferine> how can I change the resolutions in my tty's ?
[02:27] <andrewfashion> i followed the instructions NVIDIA gave, and it worked with fedora core 6, the drivers installed fine; but i got rid of fedora, now im on the new ubuntu,  same machine, did the same thing, tried to install the drivers. but i got the error "ERROR: cannto find libc header files" or something
[02:27] <phead> clearzen: ok, done
[02:27] <kbuntu> mjancaitis, ctrl+arrow didn't worked
[02:27] <troythetechguy> wolferine: Not at all, just looking for an answer to my question.
[02:27] <mjancaitis> kbuntu: sorry :(
[02:27] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, Install it through the package manager ( though Restricted Driver Manager should have chosen it if that is what you need, if RM installed something else you should file a bug )
[02:28] <wolferine> troythetechguy, please direct further statements/question to the entire channel
[02:28] <Clearzen> phead: tar -xzf file.tar.gz; make && sudo make install
[02:28] <rickey> anyone go time for a newbe
[02:28] <MrCollins> ok
[02:28] <kbuntu> mjancaitis, that means? :)
[02:28] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: Killing it kills nothing; dpkg-reconfigure gives me that "reload" failed thing; I restored the gdm.conf from the factory-gdm.conf and completely erased my gdm.conf-custom, still no dice
[02:28] <andrewfashion> so now ive been going through these help files on screen resolution, and have tried editing the xorg file or something? and changed the vertical refresh and horizontal refresh rate, nothing yet...
[02:28] <wolferine> andrewfashion, sorry, I cannot help
[02:28] <doug__> salotron,  burn ur cd with cd ripper and thn just change the .wma or what ever to .mp3
[02:28] <Clearzen> phead: There may be a configure script. If there is run ./configure first
[02:28] <andrewfashion> wolferine: okay =[
[02:28] <wolferine> hey jrib :)
[02:29] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, What happens when you run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" ?
[02:29] <jrib> wolferine: hi
[02:29] <andrewfashion> anyone out there have any idea why i cannot get my 2560x1600 resolution with ubuntu?
[02:29] <Clearzen> phead: you will have to change your directory to the folder you untar before you run make or ./configure
[02:29] <Jordan_U> !resolution > andrewfashion
[02:29] <andrewfashion> !resolution
[02:29] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto

[02:29] <Clearzen> phead: Stop me if I'm not making sense
[02:29] <ubotu> andrewfashion: please see above
[02:29] <xIke> andrewfashion: holy crap, what size monitor do you have?
[02:29] <phead> clearzen: ok, trying that
[02:29] <wolferine> how can I change the resolutions in my tty's ?
[02:29] <rickey> i could get help and anwser if i could get into yahoo chat  dran it
[02:29] <JiZZy> xIke:  he's obviously using a projector
[02:30] <mjancaitis> andrewfashion: usually it has to do with editing your xorg.conf and adding manual screen sizes in there
[02:30] <Jordan_U> wolferine, I already gave you a link to that info
[02:30] <andrewfashion> oh okay.
[02:30] <troythetechguy> Can someone please explain why wolferine does not want me to ask a question directly?
[02:30] <kbuntu> mjancaitis,  ?! :D
[02:30] <JiZZy> troythetechguy:  wolveriene don't take shit from nobody

[02:30] <mjancaitis> kbuntu: I got nothin' for you, I use beryl, dunno how to use the desktop effects you're asking about, sorry
[02:30] <Jordan_U> andrewfashion, Actually, in my experience it is usually a driver issue, not an xorg.conf issue
[02:30] <wolferine> completely missed it Jordan_U
[02:30] <wolferine> thanks
[02:30] <kbuntu> ah ok ...

[02:34] <Bo1> who can help me install a graphic card
[02:34] <wolferine> Bo1, which card?
[02:34] <PriceChild> wolferine, please don't acuse users like that in public. Message an op if you have a problem with a users /ignore... or just !ops if they are breaking guideilnes.
[02:34] <doug__> !installing a graphics card | Bo1
[02:34] <Bo1> wolfernine:nvidia
[02:34] <PriceChild> !nvidia | Bo1
[02:34] <ubotu> Bo1: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:34] <wolferine> PriceChild, i was pointing out a fact, maybe your post should be directed at him instead
[02:35] <doug__> lol thnks pricechild
[02:35] <rickey> is leaveing  cant seem to get help here
[02:35] <wolferine> i similar to you, am trying to help
[02:35] <kbuntu> PriceChild, i only want a key sequence to activate the cube workdesk switching... i don't want to know how ubuntu was built
[02:35] <RickH> Does anyone know what version of NTFS-3G will be included with the Gutsy Gibbon release?
[02:35] <PriceChild> wolferine, No. I directed it to you.
[02:35] <RickH> (if any)?
[02:35] <PriceChild> kbuntu, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:35] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart tries to boot gdm, gives me my nvidia splash screen, but then goes to the black screen with a thinking cursor (the spinning circle); mouse moves, but the login never loads and can't get back to any cli without restarting
[02:35] <PriceChild> RickH, #ubuntu+1
[02:35] <kbuntu> PriceChild, nobody's there
[02:35] <dho_ragus> RickH: i'm willing to bet it'll be the latest stable.
[02:35] <PriceChild> kbuntu, they are, be patient.
[02:35] <RickH> Is that the 1.3x version with Feisty Fawn?
[02:35] <Clearzen> phead: ok, do you have a java compiler? because you will need one
[02:35] <wxrkny> Is it possible to use svideo out with an ATI/AMD card in feisty?
[02:35] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Even with ctrl+alt+F1?
[02:35] <wolferine> PriceChild, I realize that, thats why I said, maybe you time could be more well spent directing it at the troller, rather than the accuser
[02:35] <Clearzen> !java | phead
[02:35] <ubotu> phead: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[02:35] <dho_ragus> wxrkny: yes.
[02:35] <kbuntu> PriceChild, i'm patient for the past hour
[02:35] <wolferine> your*
[02:36] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: ctrl-alt-f1 takes the mouse away, but doesn't give me anything
[02:36] <Spelly> can anyone tell me the default password that is set when installing linux mce to login to the admin website? is it not 1234?
[02:36] <icone> need a litle help here ...        I've installed sereral i386 machines with ubuntu 7.04 livecd.  In 2 machines, during the normal boot (after choose language for boot) it reaches the graphical manager and asks 4 a pass ....   This is odd .. during the instalation asking 4 a pass ??? any ideias ?
[02:36] <wxrkny> dho: is there an easy to follow guide?
[02:36] <foo> The following packages have been kept back: linux-image-server
[02:36] <foo> Where did I specify that?
[02:36] <aaron_> in my XFCE windows, i have a mysterious little "o" in the top left corner next to the programs icon... anyone know what that is or how to get rid of it?
[02:36] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: But apparently retyping /etc/init.d/gdm restart to the blank screen does actually restart gdm
[02:36] <Spelly> i cant find this information in the wiki or through google.. :(
[02:36] <wxrkny> i cant find anything on google
[02:37] <doug__> !kismet
[02:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kismet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:37] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: but yeah, still does the black screen/spinning cursor
[02:37] <phead> Clearzen: aha. with synaptic I suppose?
[02:37] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: question how do I know that nvidia-glx-legacy is in use?
[02:37] <dho_ragus> wxrkny: i'm not sure, probably.  ubuntuguide.org is great.  that functionality has been in linux for years though.
[02:37] <RickH> The latest stable is 1.7x and Ubuntu is still using 1.3x.  There are lots of issues with 1.3x and I'm wondering if anyone knows the process to contact the appropriate people to bring this to someone's attention?
[02:37] <Clearzen> phead: Also you will need to install ant with sudo aptitude install ant. Then change your directory to the source folder inside powerjournal. type ant. It will generate a build folder. In the build folder there will be a powerjournal.sh file you can run with ./powerjournal.sh and that will install it.
[02:37] <wxrkny> it works for nvidia cards very easily but i've heard its difficult for ati/amd cards
[02:38] <dho_ragus> wxrkny: well i did it with an ATI card 7 years ago...
[02:38] <mjancaitis> linux on nvidia is so much easier than ATI
[02:38] <Jordan_U> MrCollins, If you have "nvidia" set as the driver in your xorg.conf and have the package nvida-glx-legacy installed then that is what X will try to load, if you want to know if it loaded successfully run glxinfo
[02:38] <Pici> RickH: Gutsy has 1.7x
[02:38] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: ok thx man
[02:38] <RickH> Pici:  Thanks.
[02:39] <Clearzen> Phead: Personally I would look for something similar a little better supported through ubuntu. But if you want to take the time that will work.
[02:39] <rexyy> anyone knows any program that can sync my n95 in ubuntu ?
[02:39] <donna> what java do i need to use java inside my browser?
[02:39] <icone> rexyy its a celular ?
[02:39] <jrib> !java > donna (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:40] <rexyy> yes nokia n95 .
[02:40] <jrib> donna: you need to install the sun-java6-plugin package from multiverse
[02:40] <donna> thanks jrib
[02:40] <phead> Clearzen: whoah. Thanks very much for your help, but I'm gonna copy your text and have a go at this another time. I'm really tired now as it is 2:40 here. :) Good advice about finding another app anyway. Good night and thanks again
[02:40] <Jordan_U> RichiH, You should read up on Ubuntu's release schedual and version freeze policies
[02:40] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: did you catch my messages?
[02:40] <bagualas> how may I listen to .amr files?
[02:40] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Yes
[02:40] <RichiH> Jordan_U: you, on the other hand, should read up on tab completion ;)
[02:41] <Clearzen> phead: Cool, good luck
[02:41] <rexyy> icone: got any idea?
[02:41] <icone> rexyy i think if memory doesn't fail that there a program 4 linux, that handles celulars
[02:41] <icone> rexyy let me see if i find it
[02:41] <rexyy> icone: ok, cool i w8
[02:42] <Clearzen> How can you monitor the incoming/Outgoing network speeds via the terminal?
[02:43] <Grungebunny> how can you tell if your wireless card supports raw monitoring mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic ?
[02:43] <spanglesontoast> how do I resize an ext3 partition
[02:43] <DerangedDingo> Grungebunny: I don't know, but have you taken a peek at Network Tools?
[02:43] <Bo1> i got a problem with my nvidia card
[02:43] <wolferine> Clearzen, i installed knetload
[02:43] <DerangedDingo> spanglesontoast: it gets complicated
[02:43] <briansp_> I'm trying to install postfix and somehow have deleted /etc/init.d/postfix
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> !gparted | spanglesontoast
[02:44] <ubotu> spanglesontoast: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[02:44] <spanglesontoast> yea gparted has the option
[02:44] <wolferine> Clearzen, works perfect for that sort of thing, plus there is also the command, top
[02:44] <briansp_> aptget/dpkg complain that its missing, so I touch it
[02:44] <spanglesontoast> but I can't resize even though I have empty raw space to resize to
[02:44] <icone> rexyy "mobile phone manger 4 linux" ----->   http://wammu.eu/
[02:44] <briansp_> try to remove and start from scratch, but the initscript is still missing
[02:44] <DerangedDingo> spanglesontoast: ext3 doesn't support resizing in some ways
[02:44] <briansp_> how do I do a real clean remove and install?
[02:44] <rexyy> icone: thx alot man
[02:44] <Clearzen> wolferine: thanks, I'll check it out
[02:44] <Grungebunny> DerangedDingo, naw that just has finger, whois etc..
[02:44] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, What happens if you run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" then "startx" ?
[02:45] <DerangedDingo> brainsp: sudo apt-get remove --purge
[02:45] <WaltzingAlong> briansp_: sudo apituted purge _program_
[02:45] <spanglesontoast> how the hell you mean someways ?
[02:45] <WaltzingAlong> aptitude sorry
[02:45] <icone> rexyy you can google it   with strings      mobile phone manager linux
[02:45] <rexyy> thx
[02:45] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: right now startx works even without running the gdm stop line because I'm in a root console
[02:45] <briansp_> yeah that worked
[02:45] <briansp_> thanks
[02:45] <briansp_> apt-get vs. aptitude?
[02:45] <Bo1> how can i install nvidia card?
[02:45] <Paddy_EIRE> aptitude
[02:46] <Grungebunny> how can you tell if your wireless card supports raw monitoring mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic ?

[02:46] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, You rebooted?
[02:46] <briansp_> yeah but you're all so nice :-)
[02:46] <briansp_> thanks folks
[02:46] <DerangedDingo> spanglesontoast: I had to make a new partition int he size i wanted, and copy my partition to that one
[02:46] <wolferine> Bo1, do you mean the driver?
[02:46] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: but of course it's a root startx
[02:46] <icone> rexyy during boot of livecd ?
[02:46] <rexyy> icone: pm to mush people talking=)
[02:46] <WaltzingAlong> briansp_: really can use either or, i just prefer aptitude

[02:46] <ubotu> Bo1: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:46] <spanglesontoast> you need to move the partition to the front of the hard drive to resize it
[02:46] <spanglesontoast> could this be true
[02:47] <Bo1> wolferine:what do you mean
[02:47] <wolferine> Bo1, which part?
[02:47] <rexyy> icone, check pm, =)
[02:47] <Clearzen> wolferine: not exactly what I was looking for. I want something I can use via CLI, it's for my server. Thanks though.
[02:47] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, apt-get remove gdm and reboot regularly ( not single user mode ) then try startx
[02:47] <wolferine> Bo1, Feisty is the latest ubuntu release
[02:47] <Bo1> wolferine:which part of what?

[02:49] <decay> I have an icon of a mounted drive on my desktop. How do i get rid of the icon without unmounting
[02:49] <denreaper> hey... when i include libraries from /usr/include in Code::Blocks, it throws build errors, even after including every dependency.  is there a better way to do this?
[02:49] <andrewfashion> xorg.conf***
[02:49] <jrib> !icons > decay (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:49] <tech13> after doing a dist-upgrade I can't boot normally any more.  It doesn't find my root partition automagicly.  lilo.conf has the line "root=/dev/mapper/main_vg-main_lv" in it.  I use LVM
[02:49] <jrib> decay: the gconf key will let you remove all volumes' icons.  Or, just try mounting to somewhere other than /media
[02:49] <tranthorkk> anyone can helpme with anope irc services ? im trying to install in ubuntu with bahamut
[02:49] <decay> jrib: dont know how, im ussing irssi, new to it
[02:49] <Jordan_U> andrewfashion, You shouldn't have needed to edit your xorg.conf if you used restricted manager
[02:49] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: stupid thing decided to force a check, be a minute
[02:50] <decay> jrib: alright thanks
[02:50] <jrib> decay: at the bottom there should be a red number, press alt-NUMBER
[02:50] <icone> Jordan_U already look in several forums without sucess, google and some other search engines ...
[02:50] <andrewfashion> jordan_u: i opened restricted manager, checked the nvidia box,r estarted
[02:50] <wolferine> Clearzen, sorry, thats all I know of atm
[02:50] <andrewfashion> no luck

[02:51] <sear_yoda> Hey folks - I'm messing around with powertop, and it's suggesting I enable certain kernel options; I'm wondering what's the proper way of doing that in ubuntu. will straight up recompiling my kernel screw over future updates or anything?
[02:51] <jaimono> hi everyone
[02:51] <kieron> hey people
[02:51] <andrewfashion> i just cant go past 1024x768
[02:51] <Jordan_U> icone, I don't understand, why were you asking about portuguese ?
[02:51] <andrewfashion> jordan_u: i just cant go past 1024x768 and its driving me nuts, lol
[02:52] <Grungebunny> how can you tell if your wireless card supports raw monitoring mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic ?
[02:52] <Jordan_U> andrewfashion, Did X fail to start after you rebooted?
[02:52] <kieron> por favor?
[02:52] <andrewfashion> nope
[02:52] <andrewfashion> just fine
[02:52] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: rebooted normal user; logged in with my info; tried "startx;" got 6 xauth errors and one xinit error, all permission denied'
[02:52] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: I did all u requested
[02:52] <MrCollins> and now
[02:52] <andrewfashion> jordan_u: starts up just fine, it enabled new resolutions actually, but ony smaller weird resolutions
[02:52] <andrewfashion> jordan_u: so something did change
[02:52] <MrCollins> glxinfo does not say 'Direct Rendering: yes" it just gives a ton of errors....
[02:53] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: "error while loading shared libraries: libXau.so.6: cannot open shared object file: Permission denied"
[02:53] <icone> Jordan_U  no ... lol i didn't understood.  I ask rexyy to say what the letters "pm" stand 4.
[02:53] <Jordan_U> andrewfashion, Try reconfiguring X and choosing exactly the rez's you want then...
[02:53] <jaimono> I have a question: In amd64 (AthlonX2) system which version of ubuntu should I install i386 with an amd64 kernel, or the amd64 version? the question is 'cause i've heard that is better to use i386 'cause there are more packages for it and is updated quickly
[02:53] <Drk_Guy> Guys
[02:53] <Jordan_U> !xconfig | andrewfashion
[02:53] <andrewfashion> jordan_u: how do i do that?
[02:53] <Drk_Guy> How to vnc another guy?
[02:53] <andrewfashion> !xconfig
[02:53] <MrCollins> Jordan_U: I have nvidia-glx-legacy installed....
[02:53] <Drk_Guy> I have his Ip and port
[02:53] <mjancaitis> jaimono: never had any problems with the x64 AMD version, I love it
[02:53] <ubotu> andrewfashion: 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
[02:54] <andrewfashion> oh, i went through that step on the help files
[02:54] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Have you been using sudo for GUI apps by any chance?
[02:54] <KlrSpz_> jaimono, i suggest to use i386 if you need windows drivers support (ndiswrapper) or if your hardware is not fully 64bit compatible.. otherwise 64 bit on a dual core is pretty nice
[02:54] <wolferine> Drk_Guy, sudo aptitude search vnc
[02:54] <Drk_Guy> search?
[02:54] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: I don't thiiiiiiink so, but I'm not sure at all
[02:54] <Drk_Guy> aptitude?
[02:54] <Drk_Guy> Isn't it install and apt-get
[02:54] <Drk_Guy> =?
[02:54] <wolferine> Drk_Guy, its a command line
[02:54] <Drk_Guy> I know
[02:54] <KlrSpz_> aptitude is a wrapper iirc
[02:54] <Jordan_U> wolferine, No need for sudo just to search
[02:55] <jaimono> KlrSpz_, it is a Presario F500 how do I find the hardware compatibility stuff?
[02:55] <icone> need a litle help here ...  ubuntu 7.04 livecd, during the normal boot (after choose language for boot) it reaches the graphical manager and asks 4 a user and a pass ....   This is odd .. during the instalation asking 4 a pass ??? any ideias ?
[02:55] <wolferine> Jordan_U, true
[02:55] <KlrSpz_> jaimono, youll need to do an lspci and look up your hardware
[02:55] <wolferine> i just forgot the exact package
[02:55] <KlrSpz_> mostly, wireless devices are a pain
[02:55] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Do you know about gksudo ?
[02:55] <Paddy_EIRE> jaimono, you will experience trouble when trying to install flash and other multimedia codecs... some app arent available in 64bit also so it ends up becoming a redundant option...My philosophy is if you had to ask then stick with 32bit i386
[02:55] <jaimono> KlrSpz_, I've read that there are problems with the wifi
[02:55] <jrib> icone: did you verify the cd?
[02:55] <wolferine> sudo aptitude install vncviewer
[02:55] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: a little bit, I used it recently for something, I think wireless config
[02:56] <slimjimflim> hello.  is there some sort of event log by default on feisty?
[02:56] <KlrSpz_> i'm having a pain with my wireless.. i have to have my router unprotected, AND broadcast
[02:56] <KlrSpz_> which is annoying, but i set up mac filtering
[02:56] <KlrSpz_> so hopefully i'm safe
[02:56] <icone> jrib it works fine. it's the same cd that i use in several other machines too.
[02:56] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, Ok, permissions can get screwed up if you use sudo instead of gksudo for GUI apps, I think this is what has happened to you
[02:56] <Jordan_U> !gksudo > mjancaitis
[02:56] <jrib> icone: still, did you verify it?
[02:56] <mjancaitis> slimjimflim: yes, dmesg is usually useful, there's also an event viewer in the administrative menu
[02:56] <jaimono> ok Paddy_EIRE , thanks the hardware and multimedia reasons are good enough for me, i386 it is
[02:57] <jrib> icone: you're right that it shouldn't be asking for a cd, so this should be the first step
[02:57] <rafaelscj> hello
[02:57] <jrib> s/cd/password
[02:57] <slimjimflim> mjancaitis, k ty
[02:57] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: how do I fix this? Full reinstall? I just got everything how I wanted it :(
[02:57] <jarjarbinks> anyone know how to run adwords editor once it is installed?
[02:57] <Paddy_EIRE> jaimono, I have 64bit harware although only run 32bit OS's
[02:58] <Paddy_EIRE> :D
[02:58] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, If that is in fact the problem then you just need to reset the permissions to their correct values, I am looking for what those should be right now
[02:58] <DJ-Xenoc> hello
[02:58] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: thanks
[02:58] <b_e_r_t_d_> hey is there an app for ubuntu that will sync folders?
[02:58] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: rsync
[02:58] <DJ-Xenoc> i have a verry n00b question if someone has the time

[02:59] <jarjarbinks> anyone know how to run adwords editor through wine?
[02:59] <b_e_r_t_d_> does rsync have a GUI?
[02:59] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: i'm sure thre is a gui available.
[02:59] <slimjimflim> mjancaitis, how can i use that output to find a crash?
[02:59] <jrib> DJ-Xenoc: depends on your system probably, but usually <30 minutes for me
[02:59] <jarjarbinks> installed  it, can't find it tried whereis
[02:59] <slimjimflim> and an error code for it
[02:59] <b_e_r_t_d_> Ok, someone also suggested 'unison' have you tried that one?
[03:00] <bk1> ey
[03:00] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: sync should be an automated thing though, so setting up a script would be a one-time thing anyways, then you'd just double-click or let cron handle it.
[03:00] <mjancaitis> slimjimflim: just wade through it, man; find a reference point that you remember and go from there
[03:00] <dho_ragus> unison....  that sounds familiar.
[03:00] <wilson_Br_2007> good evening, folks
[03:00] <DJ-Xenoc> well i let it go for 2.5 hrs and i had to turn it off the endless scrolling i killed it at no 7234
[03:00] <b_e_r_t_d_> SWEET, so rsync can run under a CRON, that is what i want
[03:00] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: looks like unison is a gui for rsync.
[03:00] <DJ-Xenoc> is that normal
[03:00] <bk1> ey
[03:00] <b_e_r_t_d_> ahhh, ok I will go and install them both, thx guys
[03:01] <bk1> is there anyone who can help me out with wireless drivers ?
[03:01] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: actually, no, it's not a front-end for rsync.  and yes, rsync can be done from cron.  that's a *very* common thing
[03:01] <rexyy> icone: is it x64 version,?
[03:01] <Pelo> bk1, did you check the wifi docs ?
[03:01] <mjancaitis> bk1: what's your hardware and software version?
[03:01] <b_e_r_t_d_> gotcha, thanks again
[03:01] <mjancaitis> bk1: ndiswrapper is your friend, most likely
[03:01] <dho_ragus> b_e_r_t_d_: i definitely recommend going the rsync route because you'll find rsync on almost every system you sit down at, so being familiar with it will be nice
[03:01] <dho_ragus> =/
[03:01] <mjancaitis> heh, pwned

[03:14] <Random832> jrib: so, any ideas? yes, xfce terminal is sending ^?, screen is somehow turning it into a ^@. TERM is 'xterm', but i've tried it with other values too
[03:14] <icone> siskel w8 a minute
[03:14] <Pelo> samad,  if you are forwarding a port this is something you do in you router,  and you need to set a static ip in ubuntu (admin > netswrok )  and forward the port in the router to that static ip , the static ip you will be using is one that must be out of the DHCP range of your router,  so you'll need to reduce the DHCP range in the router and the available ip in ubuntu for your static ip
[03:14] <siskel> icone thanks
[03:14] <KalleDK> Frogzoo: Thx, its on the list, though throws an error on boot about not finding the driver (this is server edition)
[03:14] <Pelo> samad,  I don'T allow private msg  pleast talk to me in the channel
[03:15] <samad> Pelo: sure thing, sry, okay sounds good, how do I statically assign my IP in Ubuntu?  and also if my DHCP range starts at .1  and is up to 50, that means I would want to statically assign ubuntu and my ports to something .51+?
[03:16] <jrib> Random832: nope, I had the same issue and forcing the settings from "auto-detect" sorted it out, not sure what's going on there

[03:16] <kbuntu> i`ve been patient for the past 1 and a half hour
[03:16] <Random832> jrib: any idea how "auto-detect" is working? could the terminal be sending a different thing to screen than it sends to other apps?

[03:16] <tech13> flash freezes my firefox and konqueror when trying to use sound.  Started since the last software update.  google is only finding old fixes.  Advice?
[03:17] <Pelo> samad,  I recommend that you reduce the DHCP by one so it ends at 49 and use 50 as your static,    in ubuntu ,  menu > system > admin > network , in porperies  change from DHCP to STatic ip ,  enter it there , save restart
[03:17] <jrib> Random832: no idea what it does

[03:33] <Pelo> soyporti,  and does it cause you a problem ?
[03:33] <soyporti> my resolution is 640x480 and it should be 1440x900
[03:33] <Jordan_U> Pelo, Try not to use sudo with GUI apps when giving instructions, even though it is safe with gedit people you help may use it with other apps and no longer be able to login
[03:33] <rafaelscj> Pelo, this is my fstab -> :UUID=8b6a5cae-46e3-41a7-a5ec-50e26524fd2a /media/sda3     reiserfs defaults        0       2

[03:34] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  this is how it is now ? and you can't write to it ?
[03:34] <Pelo> Jordan_U, it was a mistake, I usualy do gksu
[03:34] <retour> JordanU: I love manual control so the best would be to download full codecs pack from Mplayer website and copy it into appropriate folder. The question is Which One?
 i think that the part with the server layout is wrong

[03:34] <Pelo> soyporti, I don't know how to fix this , sorry
[03:35] <jrib> Bakefy: did you try the menu editor?
[03:35] <NemesisUK> wilson_Br_2007, you need libdvdcss2 to decrypt bought dvds
[03:35] <rafaelscj> Pelo, there is no -> File > New folder
[03:35] <icone> Pici   pay no atention.....     in fact, I'm going 4 a cafe ....
[03:35] <Jordan_U> retour, Most likely just w32codecs
[03:35] <soyporti> <Jack_Sparrow: what is H/V?
[03:35] <Bakefy> jrib, yeah, it makes it not show, so i guess that is all i need.... but its really just hiding it.
[03:35] <Jordan_U> retour, Ahh, and libdvdcss
[03:35] <rafaelscj> Pelo, It's disabled
[03:35] <Pelo> rafaelscj,    look into  /media , so you see a  /sda3 in there ?

[03:36] <freezey> anybody can help?
[03:36] <soyporti> <Jack_Sparrow: sorry to be late but the letters are to BIG
[03:36] <jrib> Bakefy: doesn't really matter but checkout ~/.local/share/applications/wine/ if you really care probably
[03:36] <icone> Pici just ended experimenting ... sorry guys
[03:36] <Pelo> freezey, when does this happen ?
[03:36] <wilson_Br_2007> nemesis_ i already installed libdvdcss2 and nothing
[03:36] <xjkx> why it happens on glxinfo: http://www.pastebin.ca/672776
[03:37] <Bakefy> jrib thanks!  I got it good enough.
[03:37] <retour> JordanU: Mediaubuntu=medibuntu this 1 I have already
[03:37] <freezey> Pelo: when i try to install after i select install ubuntu it goes through the ubuntu screen then stop and goes to that screen and just keeps scrolling that
[03:37] <Pelo> freezey,  what is your video card ?
[03:37] <freezey> its onboard
[03:37] <Jordan_U> retour, Then there is nothing mplayer specific you need, just grab w32codecs and libdvdcss2
[03:37] <freezey> inte;l
[03:37] <soyporti> <Jack_Sparrow: any idea?
[03:38] <freezey> Pelo: its for my laptop i already have ubuntu installed on it i am just trying to reinstall
[03:38] <Pelo> freezey, odd,  I suggest you try the alternate install cd
[03:38] <freezey> i just burned it?
[03:38] <rafaelscj> Pelo, yes, there is. I think that the device is /dev/hda3 instead of /dev/sda3 but it was the auto-detection (/dev/sda3)
[03:38] <Jordan_U> freezey, Can you removing "splash" at boot on the cd?

[03:39] <Pelo> freezey,  check the cd for integrity
[03:39] <Pelo> rafaelscj,   terminal    blkid   see what is it listed as   /hda or sda ,
[03:39] <soyporti> anyone knows if the modem avvio 800 can work in ubuntu feisty fawn?
[03:39] <freezey> Jordan_U: are you sure thats the issue?
[03:39] <soyporti> does it need a driver?
[03:39] <Pelo> soyporti,   look here  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport

[03:40] <soyporti> ok
[03:40] <Jordan_U> freezey, No, it will just give you messages at boot that may help you find out what is going wrong
[03:41] <rafaelscj> Pelo, sda, there was a advanced option (during installation) that sad "install grub on hda"
[03:41] <lizardorb> I need help getting my printer to work. Installed, but won't actually print.
[03:41] <FREELANCER> ninguem pode helpa eu no???
[03:41] <Jordan_U> roe, lsof
[03:41] <gerro> hmm lshw says clockrate of my NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]  is 66mhz. Is that correct? seems horribly low...
[03:41] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  not hda   grub idenfifies it,s hdd diffrently,  don'T worry about that
 those are lines that i put on the paste bin?

[03:42] <Thurin1> Would a monitor that was manufactured in 2001 be 'safe' in Ubuntu? - Because I have had Ubuntu trash an older monitor at the refresh switching when it boots up
 those are mistaken lines?
[03:42] <freezey> Jordan_U: its boot for install tho?
[03:42] <Pelo> rafaelscj, are you the one that made the entry for your /dev/sda3 manualy in fstab or was it made automaticaly when you instaled ?
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Give me a minute... phone call...
[03:42] <Jordan_U> freezey, Can you rephrase your question?
[03:42] <soyporti> ok
[03:42] <gerro> Thurin1: look up monitor details here http://www.monitorworld.com/
[03:43] <Thurin1> gerro, I know my monitor details ;) - What I am worried about is Ubuntu killing another monitor, so does anyone have a monitor from 2001-2?
[03:43] <rafaelscj> Pelo, I created 3 partitions during installastion
[03:43] <gerro> Thurin1: enter info you find there on your monitor here http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:43] <freezey> Jordan_U: well listen i am trying to reinstall and i am gettin those errors i can boot into the OS with noproblem its only when i get to the install screen and select install i get those after like 10 minutes
[03:43] <Thurin1> gerro, I thank you but that was not my question
[03:43] <gerro> Thurin1: my monitor is from 1998
[03:43] <Thurin1> gerro, oh yeah?
[03:43] <Thurin1> gerro, What is it's max refresh?
[03:43] <freezey> Jordan_U: ok so while checking disk integrity it seems to have found an error in 1 file
[03:44] <Jordan_U> freezey, Oh, I thought that you never actually got to the desktop on the LiveCD
[03:44] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  ok,  rafaelscj , just to review here ,  your problem is that you can't make folders and files in /media/sda3 ?
[03:44] <Thurin1> I believe that my old one had a max refresh of 60hz.. Ubuntu killed it haha
[03:44] <rafaelscj> Pelo, / , swap, /media/sda3
[03:44] <gerro> Thurin1: http://www.monitorworld.com/Monitors/optiquest/l700.html
[03:44] <Thurin1> This one can do 85-100hz, I suppose that should be good
[03:44] <rafaelscj> Pelo, yes
[03:44] <Thurin1> gerro, :D Mine should be fine than
[03:44] <Jordan_U> freezey, Probably a bad burn, check the md5sum of the iso though to be sure
[03:44] <freezey> Jordan_U: well no not on the cd i cant get into the desktop but if i choose to boot normally (computer already has ubuntu installed)
[03:44] <Pelo> rafaelscj,   goto  /media   right click on /sda3   and check the permissions
[03:45] <freezey> Jordan_U: just downloaded it from freakin distrowatch shouild be cool
[03:45] <gerro> Thurin1: yeah you can turn up a lot of settings that could trash hardware, like clockrates and refresh rates etc etc
[03:45] <Thurin1> Because I like Ubuntu used it for a year or so, but than I re-installed and it literally broke 2 seperate monitors... both from 98, but later I realized that both had max refreshes of 60hz.
[03:45] <Downix> Ya know, I've never maaged to accomplsh the one thing I've wanted to with Linux, make a cross-compiler
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35336/
[03:46] <gerro> Thurin1: by default isn't it like 33-66 or so refresh rate?
[03:46] <Jordan_U> freezey, It was either a bad burn or a corrupt download, it's probably the former but I would check before making any more coasters :)
[03:46] <rafaelscj> Pelo, ower: root, group: root
[03:46] <Thurin1> gerro, I have never gotten a straight answer on what refresh rate or rates that Ubuntu tests on startup...
[03:46] <gerro> Downix: try using mingw or wine
[03:46] <freezey> how exactly do i check if its a bad iso
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !md5
[03:47] <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
[03:47] <gerro> freezey: if the md5sum doesn't match
[03:47] <Thurin1> From Xorg, it would seem to test quite a bit - so I suppose once it gets to high it can trash an older monitor - which of course will not preempt the attempt and stop it like modern monitors.
[03:47] <Downix> gerro:  for an m68k cross-compiler?
[03:47] <rafaelscj> Pelo, so, I can't read/write
[03:47] <theshadow> Alright I'm stuck I can't launch Firefox, or a shell window. Everytime I do it acts like its starting up then just ends.  /var/log/syslog shows cnxthsf_OsWaitTime(f7411b80/HDAUnsolicitedMessage,40): returning OSEVENT_WAIT_TIMEOUT. Can anyone help me?
[03:47] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  try this , gsku nautilus  /media   ,   then check the permissions again and change the group to your nick
[03:47] <gerro> Thurin1: it says in that link on xorg.conf that it will use a default refresh rate if none are specified
[03:47] <Thurin1> theshadow, It's taking to long - perhaps something is missing in your Firefox install.
[03:48] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  forget that
[03:48] <tyler-wylie> What is this madness with ubuntu 7.04.  It's actually not bad!
[03:48] <Thurin1> theshadow, what is your CPU/RAM?
[03:48] <tyler-wylie> :)
[03:48] <rafaelscj> Pelo, ...
[03:48] <ablyss> theshadow, what is your computers hostname ?
 i don't get it
[03:48] <Thurin1> 7.04 is out?
[03:48] <Thurin1> Nice
[03:48] <notchNICK> hi.. I keep getting this error whenever I try to install ubuntu on virtualbox "The creation of swap space in partition #5 of IDE1 master (hda) failed." ........... can anyone help please?
[03:48] <gerro> Thurin1: did you custom install video card drivers for it? perhaps it over wrote that section off xorg.conf
[03:48] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  I thnk you'll need to change the group but I don't know how you would do it
[03:48] <nephish> was here before, but got kicked off my network, can i  create a new partition without overwriting anything ? i have a rather large folder of media stuff that i want to put in its own partition in case i want to tinker with my os
[03:48] <soyporti> what do you you mean by those numbers
[03:48] <theshadow> Thurin1: Alot 3.4Ghtz with 2Gb RAM
[03:48] <Jordan_U> theshadow, What happens if you run "xterm" with alt+f2 ?
[03:48] <Thurin1> gerro, So do you know what is the default refresh rate for Ubuntu?
[03:48] <gerro> Downix: m68k? never heard of that
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: I added your refresh rate....  and I questioned that one other entry
[03:48] <rafaelscj> Pelo, chmod?
[03:48] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  what are the group permission ?
[03:49] <Thurin1> gerro, No I edit my XORG's manually - I have a Radeon, and prefer the Linux driver and my options as opposed to the horrid driver ATI supplies...
 refresh rate you mean frecuency? Hz?
[03:49] <gerro> Thurin1: as I have said the default is whatever xorg sets when you don't have a rate specified
[03:49] <Downix> gerro: the motorola 68000 CPU, one of the landmark processors?
[03:49] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  you can try    sudo chmod 777 /media/sda3
[03:49] <Thurin1> Actually Linux + Radeon's = Teh suxers.
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Yes...
[03:49] <gerro> Downix: ohhh yeah I remember some people talking about that before
[03:49] <nathan_> anyone ever use VNC ?
[03:49] <nilihanth> I need help with Beryl; it seemed to only half-install
[03:49] <Thurin1> gerro, I should look at Xorgs docs, perhaps the default it falls back to is 70hz
[03:49] <soyporti> oh
[03:49] <Jordan_U> nephish, Can you give more info, are you trying to copy to another drive for instance, or just another partition?
[03:49] <Pelo> nilihanth, ask in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[03:50] <ablyss> nathan_, i do about once a week
[03:50] <Downix> gerro: used in the Apple Mac,, Commodore Amiga, Atari ST + Jaguar, the PalmPilot....
[03:50] <gerro> Downix: you what you working with embedded linux systems? I usually use cuts on my cellphone to access home server
[03:50] <rafaelscj> nathan_, I used it
[03:50] <Jordan_U> !anyone | nathan_
[03:50] <ubotu> nathan_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:50] <rafaelscj> Pelo, I will try it now
[03:50] <xjkx> why it happens on glxinfo: http://www.pastebin.ca/672776
[03:50] <nilihanth> thanks, Pelo
[03:50] <nephish> Jordan_U, well, i need to create a new partition. i only have /   and /swap
[03:50] <nathan_> Jordan_U: because I was expecting to be referred somewhere else like usual
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Before you do anything...  make a backup of your xorg.
[03:50] <gerro> Thurin1: depends horizontally or vertically
[03:50] <Thurin1> Windows is somewhat intelligent when it comes to refresh rates, at the loss of control... if your monitor cannot do 70hz, it will let you "pick" 80 hz, but will still keep 60hz as the real refresh.
[03:50] <Downix> gerro:  actually trying to make apps for my old Amiga
[03:50] <tyler-wylie> Ubuntu is like Rush, once you get past Geddy Lee's vocals you find a great operating system.
[03:50] <soyporti> i have one backup!
[03:51] <notchNICK> anyone using Virtualbox in here?
[03:51] <soyporti> <Jack_Sparrow how can i use it?
[03:51] <gerro> notchNICK: I used it once
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Ok... you might want to remove that one line for now and make the changes I showed you.
  I have one backup how can i use it
[03:51] <gerro> Downix: never understood what an Amiga is, isn't it spanish for girlfriend?
[03:51] <notchNICK> I cant seem to be able to install ubuntu with virtual box
[03:51] <nathan_> Anyways, I'm having trouble with VNC. It works fine as in connects and everything. If I set windows to be the server and view with the linux machine, no problem. But if I use Linux as the server and read with the windows machine, it *WORKS* except I can't see the changes on the windows box..
[03:51] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: I'm back if you're still around
[03:52] <Thurin1> gerro..
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Just replace your existing xorg with the backup
[03:52] <notchNICK> this error keeps showing up  "The creation of swap space in partition #5 of IDE1 master (hda) failed."
[03:52] <Thurin1> Last question since you seem to be quite plentiful in links ;)
 what lines did you changed, i don't like to bother is just that this resolution is unconfortable
[03:52] <theshadow> Ok so it starts up Xorg but I can't run anything it just stops launching anything. I'm currently in the emergency shell
[03:52] <Thurin1> gerro, Would you know any sites which would explain on how to install Win2k/Ubuntu on the same HDD? -
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: I am running short on time... one sec.
[03:52] <wilson_Br_2007> thank you guys forwhile
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: Lines 115 116
[03:52] <Pelo> theshadow,  an actual install or the installation process ?

[03:53] <theshadow> Pelo: what do you mean?
[03:53] <gerro> Thurin1: I usually don't mess with that stuff but I have tried to do that. Its usually best if you have win2k installed then install ubuntu. But I think you have to edit some settings with grub
[03:53] <Jordan_U> mjancaitis, I am, havn't looked further into the permissions yet though
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> soyporti: I would love to help but I really need to get dressed before the wife shows up...
[03:53] <Pelo> theshadow,  are you having this problem when trying to install ubuntu or is it already installed &
[03:53] <Pelo> &
[03:53] <mjancaitis> Jordan_U: no problem, should I explain it to some others?
[03:53] <Pelo> ?
[03:53] <gerro> Thurin1: just read up on anything you can find related to "grub" if you find a guide for linux on general dual booting don't listen to them they might be speaking of lilo
[03:53] <Pelo> damit
[03:53] <rafaelscj> Pelo, Do chmod work with directories?
[03:53] <Thurin1> gerro, Ok well thanks, maybe I can find more information in the Ubuntu docs, or forum where I am sure someone has already asked the same question ;D

[03:54] <Pelo> searayman,  #gimp
[03:54] <theshadow> Pelo: this is a dell preinstalled. Its worked fine up till today FF froze so I xkilled it. Then everything stopped responding so I had to hard reboot it. When everything came back up. I can get into X but nothing will launch. And if I go to the emergency shell (like I am now) and swap back the system completely locks up again.
[03:55] <Jordan_U> nathan_, Are you using Beryl / Compiz
[03:55] <Jordan_U> ?

[03:55] <Pelo> from the recovery mode      sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:55] <Jordan_U> nathan_, It's a known bug, there is a workaround on launchpad ( in the comments for the bug )
[03:56] <gerro> Downix: 7hz?
[03:56] <gerro> Downix: for 7hz why not just count with your fingers a little multi tasking wouldn't kill ya
[03:56] <Downix> gerro:  yup.  The main CPU is 7.14Mhz.
[03:56] <nathan_> I get you but what is this launchpad of which you speak
[03:56] <gerro> Downix: ah 7.14mhz that little better

[04:18] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak,  i just looked like an idiot in front of my 2yrs old cousin
[04:18] <mneptok> star1: even the pay-for drivers don't work too well
[04:18] <Pelo> mikubuntu, what isthe problem exactly ?
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> lol.. don't take it personal, we all do at times.
[04:18] <mneptok> star1: you know for next time you spend money
[04:18] <mjancaiti1> To everybody: I've apparently screwed up gdm interestingly, to the point where when I boot, I get a black screen and a spinning mouse cursor; we took GDM off entirely and now when I just log into my account in the cli and try to do startx, I get permission denied errors, can't load shared libraries, libXau.so.6: cannot open shared file; anybody have an idea without a complete reinstall?
[04:19] <mjancaiti1> Also, how do I get my regular nickname back?
[04:19] <star1> mneptok: Well, on the upside, the printer was a graduation gift, so I didn't actually have to spend money on it
[04:19] <mneptok> mjancaiti1: if you removed GDM from the system, why does X breaking surprise you?
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:19] <star1> mneptok: I'll probably just live with it, or go back to the drivers I was using before for everyday stuff (it printed things, it just printed everything TINY)
[04:20] <etzerd> I install the version 7.10 on my system and it failed to give me the option to load windows xp or Ubuntu at the end of the installation.
[04:20] <mjancaiti1> mneptok: Well, the other errors were equally interesting: when I tried to reinstall GDM and just run over the old one, I keep getting: invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed
[04:20] <mneptok> star1: .. ... .... ... .. . .... .... ...
[04:20] <Pelo> mjancaiti1,   goot the live cd,  back up your /home folder and clean install
[04:20] <mikubuntu> pelo: i have a new install of xubuntu on a dell laptop.  install seems to have gone well except that screen is very splotchy, don't know ezackly what res is rendering on default, but i'd say it's not even 800 x 600
[04:20] <mjancaiti1> So we took it off and tried to reinstall it and no dice
[04:20] <star1> mneptok: Not unreadable, just smaller than I'd prefer
[04:20] <praveer_fedora> I need to fix the broken download of ubuntu 7.04 using zidrav, if someone can provide me .cdp patch file, it would be great
[04:20] <Bucketface> Oh ya, Pelo, I haven't got a Windows partition anymore, so how do I go about running the virtual system and stuff. Link me to some good reading pl0x :D?
[04:20] <mneptok> mjancaiti1: what was the "took it off" procedure?
[04:20] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, The selections basically describe what packages you have installed, by backing them up now, you can always tell dpkg to use the backed up list then tell apt to do whatever needs to be done to get back to the exact same package selection as you have now
[04:20] <star1> mneptok: Good for just about everything but term papers or things like that
[04:20] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, what's your video card?
[04:20] <genii> reload will fail in the part of stopping the existing instance before running a new instance
[04:20] <star1> mneptok: :)
[04:20] <mikubuntu> someone told me to install mc, but i did sudo apt-get install mc
[04:20] <Fezzler> I have a USB-to-Serial cable I'm using as a transfer cable to send files to/from Ubuntu<>Tandy Model 100.  I have the Linux client program running well.
[04:21] <Pelo> mikubuntu,  not all that familiar with the menus in xubuntu ,  did yo try chaning the rez ni the rez dialog box , where ever it is ?
[04:21] <genii> especially if no pre-existing instnce exists to stop ;)
[04:21] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: i don't know ezackly, how can i find out?
[04:21] <searayman> does anyoen know gimp will i need soem help
[04:21] <praveer_fedora> does anyone have ubuntu-7.04 iso?
[04:21] <Fezzler> Now I heard something about udev or udev rule that once the cable is plugged in I can get client app to load automatically?
[04:21] <Pelo> Bucketface,  is your windows xp cd oem ?
[04:21] <mneptok> praveer_fedora: it's on the internet
[04:21] <Bucketface> Think so
[04:21] <mjancaiti1> mneptok: I did sudo aptitude reinstall gdm and then I think just a plain apt-get remove
[04:21] <mikubuntu> its dell d300xt laptop
[04:21] <mneptok> praveer_fedora: why are you asking on IRC?
[04:21] <mario> ubotu i dowloaded limewire and ran runlim.sh and colorful words came out what is the next step
[04:22] <praveer_fedora> mneptok: I got the download md5sum wrong twice
[04:22] <mikubuntu> cpi dell d300xt laptop
[04:22] <Pelo> mario,  ubotu  is a bot
[04:22] <Bucketface> Pelo, Yes it is :D
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> mario: why didn't you just download the limewire.deb?
[04:22] <praveer_fedora> mneptok: I dont want to download again, can u provide me the patch file, pls
[04:22] <mneptok> mjancaiti1: you can't remove gdm without a force. ubuntu-desktop depends on it
[04:22] <Fezzler> What would be cool is a script or something that IDs the USB-RS232 cable and prompts me what to run!
[04:22] <mneptok> praveer_fedora: what?
[04:22] <ttuttle> /part/part
[04:22] <Pelo> Bucketface,  you won'T be able to authorise it in a VM ,  why did you remove yor windows ?
[04:22] <ttuttle> whoops
[04:22] <mneptok> praveer_fedora: there is no "patch file"
[04:23] <praveer_fedora> mneptok: using zidrav u can give me a small patch file to fix broken download, instead of entire iso
[04:23] <mjancaiti1> mneptok: I was logged in as root
[04:23] <mario> because that ubotu told me to so i can downloade music why indy
[04:23] <mneptok> praveer_fedora: what is zidrav?
[04:23] <Bucketface> I removed it because I liked linux, and the repartitioning brokerzed everything!
[04:23] <mjancaiti1> Pelo: if I don't actually have any documents, is there a point to backing up my home folder? does it have program settings and junk in it?
[04:23] <Pelo> mario,  to run limewire you need to install java
[04:23] <Fezzler> Like "If USB0 = Belkin F5U109 run menu then menu select program to run, etc.
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> mario: ubotu tells ou whatever users tell it to tel you.. but my point is, if you download the .deb file for Limewire.. you can jsut double click it, and it should install
[04:23] <Pelo> !java | ubotu
[04:23] <ubotu> ubotu: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:23] <mjancaiti1> mneptok: I forgot to mention I couldn't get into anything but root when all this was going on
[04:23] <Bucketface> Pelo, Isn't there someway to emulate windows :D?

[04:25] <searayman> can anyone help me with soem gimp questions, i need a gimp expert
[04:25] <Pelo> Bucketface, you can run some wndows apps on wine
[04:25] <mjancaiti1> Pelo: ok, any idea how big it needs to be?
[04:25] <Pelo> searayman,   you wuld need to go to #gimp for experts on gimp
[04:25] <Bucketface> Probably... Depends, what about Ragnarok Online :D?
[04:25] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: are the commands from !cloning exactly what I need to type or are some of those variable names?
[04:25] <mario> he told me to downloade this look mario: limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[04:25] <searayman> Pelo, no one in there is helping me the only peron to respond told me to go use inkscape....

[04:26] <mjancaiti1> Pelo: should /home be ext3 too, or Reiser, or does it matter?
[04:26] <Pelo> searayman, well you can try here but no promisses
[04:26] <Pelo> mjancaiti1, make it ext3 ,
[04:26] <mjancaiti1> Pelo: k
[04:26] <shrimants> i know that nvidia 8600m gt wont work, and i might not be able to use live CD because it will give me a cannot access tty, job control turned off error
[04:27] <shrimants> furthermore, i have an intel 3965 wireless card but i have no idea how to use it if there is no GUI
[04:27] <Pelo> shrimants,  there is an alternate install cd you can install the nvidia drivers after
[04:27] <Pelo> mario,  I donT' allow private msg  please talk to me in the channel
[04:27] <mario> Pelo what progrsm you recomend to download that will work with ubuntu to downloade music
[04:28] <Bucketface> I recommend Nicotine+
[04:28] <Pelo> !frostwire | mario
[04:28] <ubotu> mario: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[04:28] <nomasteryoda> mario, amarok
[04:28] <shrimants> how tho, if i dont know how to connect to my wireless without gui. and what nvidia drivers do i install? the one provided by nvidia?
[04:28] <Pelo> nomasteryoda,  he wants to download
[04:28] <mario> how do i get it
[04:28] <mjancaiti1> shrimants: hardwire
[04:28] <Bucketface> Check the link
[04:28] <Bucketface> Mario check the link
[04:28] <nomasteryoda> Pelo, well there's Magnatune ... to download from within amarok
[04:28] <shrimants> hardwire didnt work either
[04:28] <nomasteryoda> but i get the picture
[04:28] <shrimants> it didnt recognize the broadcom card
[04:29] <nomasteryoda> shrimants,
[04:29] <shrimants> last time i had to use some insane work around
[04:29] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, That is the exact command ( my-packages is just the file name and can be whatever you want )
[04:29] <mario> Pelo what you recomend
[04:29] <Pelo> shrimants,  the alternnate isntall cd will install a vesa driver for your nvidia card, that will get you gui , you can then try the restricted drivers first, if that doesn't work then you go for the binary
[04:29] <shrimants> hmm
[04:29] <Pelo> mario,  frostwire
[04:29] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: all right, sounds like I'm in for a fun night
[04:29] <Fezzler> I must be flagged as a pest on this channel as my questions never seem to get a response
[04:29] <mjancaiti1> Thanks guys, I'll be hanging around
[04:29] <nomasteryoda> shrimants, if you want to bring up the network you can do so with "sudo ifconfig"
[04:29] <mario> how do i get it
[04:29] <mjancaiti1> Fezzler: what's your question?
[04:29] <shrimants> do you think it would be better to wait till i get in college? there is a group called the linux user's group there
[04:30] <shrimants> i move in 2 days
[04:30] <Pelo> Fezzler,  sometimes ppl get lost in the traffic, sometimes we donT' know the answers
[04:30] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  ok, what do i do next? :)
[04:30] <mikubuntu> with the 2mb of vid mem
[04:30] <nomasteryoda> shrimants, and see if it has any IP address.... if not, then try sudo dhclient to get it to try and grab from a router or other dhcp server
[04:30] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, are you on gui?
[04:30] <Pelo> shrimants,  I think you can try the live cd, you'dd hve to do the same in college anyway
[04:30] <shrimants> allright
[04:30] <Jordan_U> shrimants, Depending on the model of the broadcom card it could be very easy to get working ( ndiswrapper is not needed for all broadcom cards )
[04:30] <Fezzler> mjan:  I want to explore if it is possible for me to write a script or use udev to have a program run after my USB cable is plugged in and recognized
[04:30] <shrimants> i'll do that later tonight then
[04:31] <Pelo> Fezzler,  what's you issue,  keep in mind I'm 0 for 10 tonight
[04:31] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  not sure what you mean... right now i have synaptic and a terminal open
[04:31] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:31] <searayman> anyoen good with gimp in here?
[04:31] <shrimants> im allright with it
[04:31] <shrimants> what do you need?
[04:31] <Pelo> Fezzler,  what do you mean by usb cable ?  you need a device at the end of it
[04:31] <Jordan_U> !anyone | shrimants
[04:31] <Pelo> searayman, just ask your questikon
[04:31] <ubotu> shrimants: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:32] <Fezzler> Pelo and gang: I use a USB-to-Serial cable to transfer programs downloaded off Web to Ubuntu to transfer to old computer
[04:32] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, did xorg work?
[04:32] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: new question: since I presume I can't log into my hard drive account from the liveCD, how do I mount a USB thumb drive in my cli so I can run those cloning commands?
[04:32] <searayman> well i found out how t oobend an image in gimp, with distort>curve bend filter, but when i try and use it on my image its graye dout along with every other distort filter....?
[04:32] <Bakefy> sometimes i get a message when trying to start firefox that says "firefox is already open, please close it before opening another window"  although no windows are open, how do i solve this without a restart?
[04:32] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You assume incorrectly :)
[04:32] <Pelo> Fezzler, that's abit overt my head,   I suggest you look this stuff up in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:32] <shrimants> ...i didnt ask if anyone could help me tho...that was searayman
[04:32] <Fezzler> Pelo: When I plug in cable, Ubuntu automatically recognizes it and runs driver for USB-to-Serial cable USB=ttyUSB0
[04:32] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: i think it didn't because that's maybe why i have such poor res? but i don't know for sure...
[04:33] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: ooh, teach me
[04:33] <searayman> shrimants, what?
[04:33] <Pelo> Bakefy,  sudo killall -9 firefox
[04:33] <shrimants> nvm, i think jordan_u missed
[04:33] <Bakefy> thanks!
[04:33] <Bakefy> pelo, you're the man
[04:33] <mjancaiti1> Pelo, new and improved, 1-11!
[04:33] <mikubuntu> Pelo: 1 for 11
[04:33] <mjancaiti1> (I win)
[04:33] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You need to do what is called a "chroot" ( for changing what the shell sees as being "/" basically )
[04:33] <shrimants> searayman, what do you mean greyd out
[04:33] <Fezzler> I'd love to write script or (udev rule??) that goes "If ttyUSB0 = Belkin cable, run ./Tandylink
[04:34] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, So, you are trying to change your screen resolution...
[04:34] <searayman> shrimants, i cant choose to use those filters, ther eunselctable...
[04:34] <Pelo> Fezzler,  and you want it to start a script, got it,  I've tried to so something similar but the script got statted on connect before the device was mounted,  I was trying to write a udev rule
[04:34] <shrimants> ohhh
[04:34] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, Did you try to change your /etc/xorg.conf?
[04:34] <abhi> friends I got one of best download manager for linux. try sun download manager. download the latest version from sun.com
[04:34] <shrimants> allright, well you need to make sure your layer is selected
[04:34] <mario> Thanks alot pelo i download it succesful thank you for ypur help.
[04:34] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: so boot into the LiveCD, get into a console, chroot.... to what? and then I can run those commands?
[04:34] <shrimants> if thats not the answer, then try to ctrl+a to select all
[04:34] <Pelo> mario,  np
[04:34] <Fezzler> Pelo: So udev is what I should be exploring?
[04:34] <shrimants> or use the paths tool to make a selection
[04:34] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  no, i complete dumdum, can you tell me how to access it and what to do?
[04:35] <arghh2D2> I forget the file to edit to cause grub to default load windows rather than linux on a dual boot, anybody?
[04:35] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, For a basic chroot, where the chroot has no direct access to the hardware, you can just run "sudo chroot /wherever/your/install/is/mounted"
[04:35] <reyed> y0
[04:35] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Yes
[04:35] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, in terminal type -> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorf.conf
[04:35] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: so sudo chroot /dev/sda/?
[04:35] <Jordan_U> !gksudo | rafaelscj mikubuntu
[04:35] <ubotu> rafaelscj mikubuntu: 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
[04:35] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  k, hold on
[04:35] <Pelo> Fezzler,  should be,  but like I said it failed for me ,   even adding a sleep line in the script just caused a delay untill the next  action (ie the mount) ,  best of luck
[04:35] <c0mp13371331337> So when I start Ubuntu, before it gets to the login screen, it says that there was an error mounting a partition by GUID and brings me to a terminal as root, telling me all about the error, that fstab failed, etc.  If I type 'mount sda2' (my home partition) and then hit Ctrl-D, it takes me to the login screen just fine, no issues after that.  Any ideas?
[04:36] <shrimants> g2g thanks for the advice everyone
[04:36] <genii> Fezzler: http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html#external-run
[04:36] <Fezzler> genii: Cool, thanks.  I'll check it out
[04:36] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, No, that is the device node ( a direct connection to the hard drive itself basically ) you need to use the mountpoint ( the directory where you can see the files from the partition )
[04:36] <Pelo> c0mp13371331337,  try taking out about 8 characters at the end of your nick ,  some of us use xchat and you just resized about  500  member list

[04:39] <wolfsong> anyone familiar with using cabextract/unshield to open cab file?
[04:39] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  gedit: command not found
[04:39] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot to understand it ( you don't need to but I think it is interesting and shows the modularity / flexability of a *NIX system )
[04:39] <mjancaiti1> wolfsong: just get in the directory that holds the file and run "cabextract <file>"
[04:39] <mjancaiti1> It'll just dump the files in that directory
[04:40] <rcbaxter> Does anyone own one of those Dell 1420ns?
[04:40] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: so i don't need to worry about unshield?
[04:40] <Pelo> rcbaxter, you cn try to check it out in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:40] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, press alt+F2 then type -> gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:40] <mjancaiti1> wolfsong: can't say I know, never heard of it; better ask one of the gurus here
[04:40] <ninjabob7> does anyone know of a good text editor for python programming? i need to be able to collapse blocks
[04:40] <rcbaxter> I was just looking for opinions... I haven't even looked at them yet.
[04:40] <wolfsong> thanks
[04:41] <Pelo> ninjabob7, the ppl in #python probably have their favorites
[04:41] <ninjabob7> okay
[04:41] <ninjabob7> /leave
[04:41] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, This howto is for setting up a chroot so that you can run commands to fix grub, you can simply ignore the grub part https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-bf0ad184b84304b51996a11111a1901667529a80

[04:42] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: looking, thanks
[04:42] <Pelo> c0mp13371331337,  then replace the uuid with the devtree  that should solve it
[04:42] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  no output
[04:42] <mikubuntu> should i try again?
[04:43] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Then anything that you run will act exactly as it would if you were booted into the installed system, but the Live environment won't be affected at all
[04:43] <Pelo> mikubuntu, please don'T use  the enterkey for punctuation

[04:44] <Pelo> nj786, you've been here long enought to know how this works,  JUST ASK YOU BLOODY QUESTION , DON'T ASK FOR SOMEONE
[04:44] <c0mp13371331337> Pelo: ah, gotcha.  I'll give it a shot and reboot.  And also find a different nick. ;-)  Thanks!
[04:44] <Ninja> lol
[04:45] <p0ss> hi again :D
[04:45] <Spanx> Hi everone, I'm new to Ubuntu and Linux in general, but I'm setting Ubuntu up for a computer illiterate friend who wants to play games, but cant afford Windows
[04:45] <Pelo> c0mp13371331337,  best of luck and thanks for the consideration
[04:45] <DrMitch> i can't get the dang (x/u)buntu 7.04 to install, it freezes completely right after the installer starts X. is there a way to log to a file the install process so i can find out wtf driver is causing it to stall?
[04:45] <Pelo> Spanx, any actual question ?
[04:45] <Spanx> And I'm having trouble setting up Wine
[04:45] <nj786> im having trouble putting songs on my ipod it gives me an error: /media/NAJIB'S IPO/iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB is too big to be an buffer file
[04:45] <Ninja> has anyone in here remastered an Ubuntu CD?
[04:45] <Spanx> Yeah
[04:45] <nj786> and ti erased all my songs
[04:45] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: so should I be mounting the partitions into temporary files and then just the "chroot /mnt/root/ /bin/bash"? don't know what the /bin/bash" is doing
[04:45] <nj786> it
[04:46] <Pelo> Spanx,  ask in #wine
[04:46] <KlrSp1> !seen cosmodad
[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen cosmodad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <KlrSp1> who is he?
[04:46] <KlrSp1> *dad
[04:46] <Spanx> Ok, thanks
[04:46] <Jordan_U> DrMitch, Can you get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1 ( F7 to get back to X ) ?
[04:46] <rafaelscj> !haskell
[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about haskell - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <rafaelscj> !haskell98
[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about haskell98 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <DrMitch> Jordan_U, nope, nothing works. numlocks button doesn't even work
[04:46] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: xedit: command not found .... what's up with this machine i have a fresh install
[04:46] <rafaelscj> !hugs
[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hugs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <Pelo> !info haskell | rafaelscj
[04:47] <ubotu> rafaelscj: Package haskell does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !reconstructor
[04:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about reconstructor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, terminal -> cd /etc/X11
[04:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: google ubuntu and reconstructor...
[04:47] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow, http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
[04:47] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks pelo...
[04:47] <Pelo> np
[04:47] <DrMitch> Jordan_U, i tried using the alternate installer for xubuntu as well, it froze too
[04:47] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks
[04:48] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, /bin/bash is not really needed, it is just what program will be executed within the chroot, if you did "sudo chroot /mnt/root nano" then you would start running nano, but since bash is the default if no program is given it isn't really necessary
[04:48] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  just 'cd /etc/X11'?
[04:48] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, then -> vi xorg.cong
[04:48] <Pelo> DrMitch, low memory computer ?
[04:48] <DrMitch> 1 gig
[04:48] <logreeval> Hello, I am building a computer and accidentally got a 64 Bit processor, what are my limitations with a processor like that, instead of 32 bit?
[04:48] <DrMitch> 64bit 2000+, (but i'm running 32 bit)
[04:48] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, vi is not for begginers :)
[04:48] <mjancaiti1> logreeval: 64-bit processors are more powerful than 32-bit ones, you're not limited
[04:48] <Pelo> DrMitch,  I thoguht you might hve had the same problem I had earlier,  but I was on a comp with 64meg RAM so probably not
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> logreeval: Run 32 bit and dont worry about it.
[04:48] <rafaelscj> :)
[04:48] <Jordan_U> logreeval, None
[04:48] <mjancaiti1> logreeval: you can run a 32-bit OS on it if you want, or you can run the 64-bit one too
[04:49] <rafaelscj> Jordan_U, tell me another
[04:49] <Jordan_U> rafaelscj, nano
[04:49] <Pelo> DrMitch,  you could try one of the fix i found might work,  alternate cd,   command line install,   then  apt-get xubuntu-desktop
[04:49] <c0mp13371331337> logreeval: your limitations are many billions of GB of RAM, as opposed to the 4 that 32-bit processors allow. ;-)
[04:49] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow: This looks really cool!
[04:50] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  now i have 'xorg.cong' (new file)  ... u did say xorg.cong and NOT xorg.conf, right?
[04:50] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, nano xorg.conf
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: I worked on the original beat... nice job on his part
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> beta
[04:50] <p0ss> just wonder how to set up a boot prompt
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight all... play nice...
[04:50] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: is it going to be a bad idea if I write something from my linux partition to my windows partition? It refuses to mount my USB drive (probably no media in the drive) and I have no other place to move it
[04:51] <chris32680> maybe off topic, but maybe someone can point me in the right direction...how do i update nexuiz from 2.2.3 to 2.3?
[04:51] <xIke> anybody tried affinity?
[04:51] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, right, it's xorg,conf
[04:51] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow: I've been trying to remaster a CD by hand. I keep getting errors. "Release" file errors, ubuntu-keyring errors etc...
[04:51] <mono6> jordan: should be no problem. what problems are you having with your usb stick?
[04:51] <Pelo> g'night folks
[04:51] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, press Ctrl+Shitt+Q
[04:51] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  so how do i go back and fix?  it already says xorg.cong ?
[04:51] <KlrSp1> anyone use mplayer? if so, what VO do you use?
[04:52] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You don't need to actually move the file because you are going to be "restoring" on the same drive you are backing up from, just keep the file in your home folder
[04:52] <logreeval> mjancaiti1:sorry for late reply, I can run the 32 bit Ubuntu?? :)
[04:52] <krammer> which program is good for backing up my drive?
[04:52] <p0ss> my mate has just put a new hd in as his primary, but its now booting to ubuntu wihtout prompting to ask for xp, how can he manually set it to prompt which one o boot to?
[04:52] <mjancaiti1> logreeval: yes
[04:52] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: is that the fix? control shift q?
[04:52] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, yes
[04:52] <mono6> kramer, command line tools are actually best (believe it or not), like dd
[04:52] <logreeval> mjancaiti1: wow, cool, does anything chnage or work diffferently?
[04:53] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I thought I was completely reinstalling? right now I'm trying to copy my home folder and then get that cloning working
[04:53] <krammer> i would like to do a Image
[04:53] <mono6> krammer, dd is perfect for that..do a 'man dd'
[04:53] <abhi> how can i give the class path ?
[04:53] <nest> ppl, does anyone which is the command that i have to put in conkyrc so the windget apears on every desktop?
[04:54] <mjancaiti1> logreeval: no change. It'll run fine. 64-bit OSes are supposedly more efficient, but you won't lose any functionality from running a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit processor
[04:54] <p0ss> anyone, a little help setting up a boot prompt?
[04:54] <mikubuntu> k,, hold on omg, now i'm back to a new terminal ... lol ... let me back up and see if i can redo this
[04:54] <genii> krammer: dd is good for backing up a partition or drive to a file on another drive for instance. so long as yo have room on the destination for that of course.
[04:54] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, No, my idea was to try removing anything remotely having to do with X then getting everything back using the backup package list
[04:54] <krammer> ok thanks
[04:54] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, cd /etc/X11
[04:54] <logreeval> mjancaiti1:  Awesome! Thank you :), you just made my day! :)
[04:55] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, then -> sudo nano xorg.conf
[04:55] <newman> hola
[04:55] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: oh right. So I can just move this package I'm making into my home folder
[04:55] <orbisvicis> if i ls a really long list, how can i scroll back up it ?
[04:55] <newman> alguien habla espaol
[04:55] <ckin2001> use ls | less
[04:55] <KlrSp1> anyone use mplayer? if so, what VO do you use?
[04:55] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: sorry, got advice from bunches of people and got mixed up.... so now to figure out this chroot
[04:55] <ckin2001> spacebar between pages
[04:55] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You aren't making a package, it's just a text file
[04:55] <orbisvicis> ckin2001, perfect. ty
[04:55] <mjancaiti1> Also good!
[04:56] <daytona89> how do I get ubuntu to recognize/mount my NTFS partition again? It was doing it until I installed gfxboot...
[04:56] <ckin2001> np
[04:56] <mono6> orbisvicis: export it to a file with "> outputfile" or use gedit
[04:56] <orbisvicis>  that works too
[04:56] <mono6> daytone: mount -t smbfs
[04:56] <ckin2001> better - if you know what you are looking for - ls | grep "text here"
[04:56] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, And just so you know, you won't be able to see your thumb drive from within the chroot
[04:56] <orbisvicis> is it possible to turn off that annoying terminal beep ?
[04:56] <nj786> can anybody tell me why i get this error in gtkpod : /media/NAJIB'S IPO/iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB is too big to be an buffer file
[04:57] <mono6> ntfs might or might not work...
[04:57] <cishpix> Please help me....., Can NFS be a PDC Server like in Samba??
[04:57] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, But you can copy the file from the LiveCD normally with nautilus of another terminal if you also want to back up somewhere else ( even pastebin )
[04:57] <daytona89> mono6: no go...
[04:57] <mono6> cishpix. no, NFS is a little different.
[04:58] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: i don't know where you want me to input 'nano etc...' gotta lot of output onscreen now, should i pastebin it for you to see?
[04:58] <orudie> is there a way to add ntfs partitions into picasa?
[04:58] <freckledp> orbisvicis, Edit>profiles > edit > uncheck terminal bell
[04:58] <mono6> daytona: have you tried "mount -t ntfs {partition} {mountpoint}?
[04:58] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: so confusing! I'll get it soon
[04:58] <WaltzingAlong> orudie: mount them
[04:58] <genii> cishpix: NFS is a networked file system A PDC is a Primary Domain Controller. they have little to do with each other
[04:58] <daytona89> mono6: what might I put into those variables?
[04:58] <daytona89> (sorry, I'm a newbie...)
[04:59] <mono6> cishpix: yea, NFS is more to share folder and files. it does not really do any authentication like LDAP or AD
[04:59] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, okay, just type -> "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" case sensitive
[04:59] <mono6> daytona: do a "sudo fdisk -l" to view your partitions
[04:59] <mono6> daytona: then choose the partition that you would like to mount
[05:00] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  there's no 'blank' space to type in
[05:00] <daytona89> ok, it's hda1
[05:00] <abhi> how can i give the class path ?
[05:00] <orbisvicis> freckledp, where is this? im on feisty
[05:00] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, I am probably making it harder than it needs to be, but hopefully you will learn some interesting and useful things from it
[05:00] <mono6> okay...now do a "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt"
[05:00] <cishpix> so... what should I do if I want to make a server like PDC in linux system??
[05:00] <freckledp> orbisvicis, if you open gnome-terminal, then go to the options I put above
[05:00] <orbisvicis> oh
[05:00] <mono6> or what ever folder you want to mount the partition at
[05:00] <orbisvicis> heh
[05:00] <freckledp> :)
[05:00] <mono6> cishpix: samba!
[05:00] <viverant> any good channel on here for compiz-fusion?
[05:01] <genii> cishpix: Are you connecting linux-linux machines or linux-windows machines?
[05:01] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, pastebin
[05:01] <Jordan_U> mono6, You usually don't mount directly to /mnt, it doesn't hurt but the convention is to create a mountpoint within /mnt ( like /mnt/sda1 )
[05:01] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I never had anything against learning before, and I am nothing if not incredibly appreciative of your help
[05:01] <cishpix> genii: linux - linux
[05:01] <mono6> jordan: you're right, was just an example
[05:01] <abhi> is there any application just like adobe page maker?
[05:02] <nj786> can anybody tell me why i get this error in gtkpod : /media/NAJIB'S IPO/iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB is too big to be an buffer file
[05:02] <daytona89> mono6: so I tried 'sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1' but it didn't do anything...
[05:02] <scottDkoDer> I'm confused by the w32codecs pkg.  sudo apt-get install w32codecs returns with 'Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:02] <scottDkoDer> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[05:02] <scottDkoDer> is only available from another source
[05:02] <scottDkoDer> E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate     Any help?
[05:02] <mono6> ideally you would want to use frequently accessed mounts into fstab
[05:02] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  can't seem to get a 'copy' command , not under the edit, only 'paste'
[05:02] <cishpix> mono6: samba just for linux-windows machines, isn't?
[05:02] <astro76> !w32codecs | scottDkoDer
[05:02] <ubotu> scottDkoDer: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:02] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  same with right click
[05:02] <viverant> scottDkoDer I would try a 3d party package like automatix
[05:02] <orudie> is there a way to add ntfs partitions into picasa?
[05:02] <viverant> or that
[05:02] <genii> cishpix: By PDC you mean some machine which needs a password to connect to shared folders on it?
[05:02] <mono6> cishpix: no, samba can act as a BDC for Windows machines, even as a PDC-clone when using LDAP
[05:02] <tonyyarusso> !automatix | viverant, scottDkoDer
[05:02] <ubotu> viverant, scottDkoDer: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[05:03] <orbisvicis> scottDkoDer, medibuntu has them, also x64
[05:03] <orbisvicis> !medibuntu
[05:03] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[05:03] <HeyPete> Doesn't Medibuntu's repository have w32codecs?
[05:03] <HeyPete> Oh...ubotu beat me to it.
[05:03] <mono6> daytona: make a directory where you want to mount the partition
[05:03] <Tom-Miller> Hey, I am using ubuntu 7.04, I am trying to enable my restricted nvidia driver, but its not enabling
[05:03] <Tom-Miller> is something wrong?
[05:03] <mono6> daytona: like "sudo mkdir /mnt/windows"
[05:03] <scottDkoDer> Thanks guys, I will look in to it
[05:03] <cishpix> genii: yes, I mean it
[05:03] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: when I put in "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages it tells me "/home/ubuntu/my-packages: No such file or directory" - do I need to make one, or tell it to, or what?
[05:03] <mono6> daytona: then do 'sudo mount -t /dev/hda /mnt/windows'
[05:03] <freckledp> Tom-Miller, is your kernel updated to the lates?
[05:03] <Tom-Miller> nvm
[05:04] <Tom-Miller> it worked now
[05:04] <Tom-Miller> weird
[05:04] <viverant> !envy | viverant
[05:04] <HeyPete> Tom -- it always happens whenever you ask for help. Happens to me all the time when I'm at the car mechanic asking about a scary noise. :)
[05:04] <viverant> guess there isnt anything on that :)
[05:04] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I correctly executed the chroot, I think, when I ls from the new prompt I see all my folders (bin, emul, etc, home, blah blah)
[05:04] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: please don't leave me yet, i is lost
[05:04] <genii> cishpix: Then NFS is fine for this. You should read up on the file /etc/exports which is where things get shared from, and the syntax for mounting network shares
[05:05] <Tom-Miller> HeyPete: I think it might have something todo with my opening GAIM then trying
[05:05] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, okay
[05:05] <mintee_> i'm trying to install the lastest mythtv from svn but it's complaining that freetype isn't installed.  I'm not sure how to go about installing it
[05:05] <Tom-Miller> HeyPete: maybe since it was the first time I was running GTK on this system, it didn't want to work
[05:05] <nj786> can anybody tell me why i get this error in gtkpod : /media/NAJIB'S IPO/iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB is too big to be an buffer file
[05:05] <Tom-Miller> HeyPete: GTK is funny like that sometimes
[05:05] <mintee_> apt-get install freetype does nothing
[05:05] <orbisvicis> just a Q: /.ssh/authorized_keys2 is only for rsa/pubkey ... so if nxclient presents a private key not listed there .... shouldnt make a difference as long as pass auth is enabled?
[05:05] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, open a file manager
[05:05] <demonspork> how do I make a .deb package after compiling from source?
[05:05] <nj786> can anybody tell me why i get this error in gtkpod : /media/NAJIB'S IPO/iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB is too big to be an buffer file when i connect my ipod and i cannot even add songs to my ipod and i have no songs it erased them
[05:06] <orudie> is there a way to add ntfs partitions into picasa?
[05:06] <HeyPete> Perhaps. It just worked automagically for me.
[05:06] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Ok, to make sure you have the hardware visable to the chroot ls /dev and /opt and make sure there are things there
[05:06] <mono6> demonspork: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[05:06] <leo_rockw> hello everyone
[05:06] <genii> cishpix: On the server the shared files are specified in the /etc/exports file, then you mount those remotely on the clients with similar method as mounting a drive locally.
[05:06] <nj786> anybody in here know anything abt GTKPOD?
[05:06] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: ok, what's a filemanager and where do i find?
[05:06] <orbisvicis> :q!
[05:06] <orbisvicis> oops
[05:06] <freckledp> haha, editing a file, orbisvicis
[05:06] <cishpix> genii: can u give me the tutorial link about it??
[05:06] <orbisvicis> freckledp, yep
[05:07] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, are you using xubuntu, right?
[05:07] <kritical> Hi there, I keep hitting Ctrl+S by accident in the GUI Terminal... can anyone tell me why this keeps freezing vim?
[05:07] <freckledp> I can't tell you how many times I've typed that in an email :)
[05:07] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: big ol' list for /dev (dsp, dsp1, rfcomm, xconsole, etc), smaller one for /opt (acrobat reader, azureus, swiftfox, etc)
[05:07] <cishpix> mono6: does ubuntu support like FDC (fedora directory server)??
[05:07] <freckledp> my boss just laughs
[05:07] <genii> cishpix: One minute, I will look for you
[05:07] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: yes but i just looked through the apps menu and don't see a 'file manager'
[05:07] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Sorry, typo, I meant /proc
[05:07] <kek> kritical: press ctrl-q to resume
[05:07] <mono6> cishpix: i am not sure, but i just might say: i doubt it.
[05:08] <mjancaiti1> ls /proc gives me nothing
[05:08] <mjancaiti1> Just a new line
[05:08] <orbisvicis> hehe . ah well
[05:08] <mono6> cishpix: i would just to with samba. it's really relatively easy to install and their tutorials are great
[05:08] <ckin2001> you have nothing in proc?
[05:08] <kek> kritical: it's just standard
[05:08] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Did you do the mount -o bind command for /proc ?
[05:08] <kritical> kek, cheers, looks like thats the XOFF signal?...
[05:08] <leo_rockw> mikubuntu, i believe it is called thunar
[05:08] <mjancaiti1> No
[05:09] <mjancaiti1> Haha, I will
[05:09] <kritical> kek, thanks though, that was doing my head in ;)
[05:09] <mikubuntu> leo_rockw: k, i saw something like that; brb
[05:09] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, so, the only way is to use terminal
[05:09] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: do I need to make those extra directories, or will it take it correctly?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You will need to do it from another terminal
[05:09] <kek> kritical: yeah i think so
[05:09] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: got it
[05:09] <orbisvicis> anyone know where the user nx should be?
[05:09] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: i found file manager
[05:10] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, cool
[05:10] <cishpix> mono6: but I know, in linux-linux machine is good to use NFS but in linux-windows machine is good to use samba, isn't it??
[05:10] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, navigate to /etc/X11
[05:10] <Frogzoo> cishpix: nfs > samba = true
[05:10] <mono6> cishpix: correct...NFS is better for linux-linux. you can just use openldap to create a directory server for linux-linux
[05:11] <genii> cishpix: This will get you started: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=193408&highlight=file+sharing
[05:11] <cishpix> genii: thanks for the link
[05:11] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: ok, ls /proc gives me a bunch of stuff now: scsi, vmstat, etc
[05:11] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, is there a "file manager open as root" opition?
[05:11] <cishpix> genii: I'll study hard about it
[05:11] <mono6> cishpix: it can provide you with a single-sign-on server (like AD, samba, etc), so you don't have to maintain accounts on every machine
[05:11] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: i see a folder called etc
[05:11] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Basically you are making /mnt/root/proc actually go to /proc, which you need to do because otherwise the chroot cannot see anything outside of /mnt/root ( because it thinks that is / and nothing is higher than / :)
[05:12] <cishpix> mono6: do you have a link about the tutorial??
[05:12] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, open it, then open "X11"
[05:12] <Frogzoo> mono6: you mean ldap with kerberos? or something else?
[05:12] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I see; I'll try running those lines again now
[05:12] <mono6> cishpix, http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin23/
[05:12] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Which lines?
[05:12] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: the dpkg lines; same thing happened
[05:13] <mono6> cishpix, not really a tutorial, but good info
[05:13] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: do I need to redo my chroot command?
[05:13] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, yes, it won't affect grabbing the list since that doesn't require knowlage of the hardware, you will only need that for when you re-install X and other packages
[05:14] <mono6> cishpix, but keep in mind that openldap and NFS are two seperate things. LDAP is for authentication, NFS is for file sharing
[05:14] <cishpix> brb
[05:14] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: k, got x11 open
[05:14] <demonspork> mono6, the source code I have already has a debian/ directory?  what do I run in it?
[05:14] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, So now "sudo apt-get remove --reinstall xserver-xorg"
[05:14] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, now find xorg.conf
[05:15] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I dunno what happened, I'm gonna close this terminal (haven't done anything besides the chroot) and start over
[05:15] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: k, open?
[05:15] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: that's not going to ruin anything, right?
[05:15] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, yes
[05:15] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, No, it won't hurt anything
[05:15] <mono6> demonspork: good, you probably just need to do a 'debuild -S'
[05:16] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  open with mousepad, abiword or other app?
[05:16] <raf256> why installing software is so horribly hard in ubuntu/debian?
[05:16] <demonspork> mono6, in which directory?
[05:16] <mono6> demonspork: after that do a pbuilder and point it to the .dsc file to build the binaries
[05:16] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, abiword
[05:16] <ckin2001> raf256 - have you tried synaptic?
[05:16] <mono6> demonspork: do it in the source directory, not the debian dir
[05:16] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, find Section "Devices"
[05:17] <Jordan_U> raf256, Because it's not?
[05:17] <raf256> ckin2001: yes, it sucks a lot when I need several applications; and one application needs other versions of lib, so it wants to remove the other appl i need, WTF
[05:17] <raf256> Jordan_U: so how to install few applications if each needs other version of libs?
[05:17] <Jordan_U> raf256, What applications?
[05:17] <raf256> On normal systems like windows each program can have own libs as needed
[05:18] <Jordan_U> raf256, That shouldn't happen for the most part
[05:18] <raf256> Jordan_U: take any application A and B where both need lib X but in different ver
[05:18] <mono6> raf256: that's the beauty of linux, you can have more libs than just one
[05:18] <raf256> mono6: so how to solve it?
[05:18] <Jordan_U> raf256, Can you give an example of that happening? You should be able to just have both libs
[05:18] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: is it 'input devices'?
[05:18] <raf256> system should install both libs (both versions) why it doesnt do so?
[05:18] <mono6> raf256, it really depends on the app(s)
[05:18] <geek> i've got a quick question
[05:19] <Jordan_U> raf256, Again, it should not need to be solved by you, it should be automatic, can you give an example where it is not?
[05:19] <raf256> Jordan_U: actually its about debian, installing gaura removes styplhed-claws email client
[05:19] <geek> whats a good program for burning mp3 cds?
[05:19] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, no scroll down
[05:19] <mono6> raf256: libs are different in linux...different versions have usually a different extension
[05:19] <File13> !seen IntuitiveNipple
[05:19] <Jordan_U> raf256, Debian stable?
[05:19] <raf256> Jordan_U: no, debian stable is acient; debian tewsting
[05:20] <mintee_> is it normal for mythtv to just not work in ubuntu.  I get a seg fault everytime i try and start anything myth related.  I just want a front end.
[05:20] <raf256> Jordan_U: upgrade of GTK seems to be to blame
[05:20] <Jordan_U> raf256, Debian testing is not stable :) There are going to be some packaging problems
[05:20] <mono6> geek, gnome cd master
[05:20] <File13> is anyone familiar with the RTUtility for wireless in ubuntu
[05:20] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: there a section 'Monitor', and after that a section 'Screen'
[05:20] <Jordan_U> raf256, Though it should still be very rare
[05:20] <raf256> is ubuntu as fucked in this manner as debian? (unstable dependencies, unable to install both appl A and B)
[05:20] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | raf256
[05:20] <ubotu> raf256: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:21] <mintee_> raf256, i'm thinking so, hehe
[05:21] <raf256> so which distro isnt?
[05:21] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, what's the Identifier on Section "Monitor"?
[05:21] <raf256> gentoo/
[05:21] <denson> apt-get problem here. I am trying to remove ejabberd apt-get remove ejabberd -V , but the remove is failing. I dont really get much of an error. Where can I look to get more details.
[05:21] <mikubuntu> monitor says horizsync 28-51, and vertrefresh 43-60
[05:21] <mikubuntu> Generic Monitor
[05:21] <Jordan_U> raf256, You might like Arch, it keeps up to date but is stable ( no descrete versions )
[05:21] <mjancaiti1> denson: dmesg might be useful
[05:21] <raf256> Jordan_U: hmm ok
[05:21] <ckin2001> @raf - sabayon
[05:22] <mintee_> does anyone have a simple mythfrontend running on ubuntu and stable?
[05:22] <ckin2001> bleeding edge
[05:22] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, What's the device on Section "Screen"?
[05:22] <mono6> Jordan_U: agreed, Arch is awesome, but more technical than Ubuntu
[05:22] <Distro^Junkie> is beryl still supported or is there an alternative ?
[05:22] <mintee_> mono6, i don't really think so, i think arch is pretty damn easy, especially with pacman beign searchable
[05:23] <Jordan_U> Distro^Junkie, Yes and Yes :)
[05:23] <mono6> Distro^Junkie: Compiz-Fusion
[05:23] <Distro^Junkie> is it easy to install ?
[05:23] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: Screen>Device> 'Neomagic Corp NM2160 magicgraph 128XD
[05:23] <rafaelscj> Distro^Junkie, /join #Ubuntu-effects
[05:23] <MrCollins> hey Jordan_U I got q3 working smooth man
[05:23] <mono6> mintee_: yea, but not really for linux newcomers. it's easy, but the wiki is a bit of a mess.
[05:23] <Jordan_U> Distro^Junkie, There will be no new versions of Beryl but the current version will still be supported until compiz-fusion is finished
[05:24] <MrCollins> all it was, was I needed to take out a 'composite' command and comment it out in the xorg.conf file :)
[05:24] <Tom-Miller> Distro^Junkie: Beryl and Compiz fused back together
[05:24] <mintee_> mono6, name a wiki that isn't a mess. heh
[05:24] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  says 'modes 1024 x 768'
[05:24] <Distro^Junkie> ahh ok
[05:24] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, What's the available resolutions on Section "Screen"?
[05:24] <mono6> mintee_: hehe. true. but still, nothing compares to the Ubuntu wiki
[05:25] <aphroguy116> Pelo - Not sure if you're still here or not, but just wanted to let you know it worked like a charm.  Any ideas what would have caused that?
[05:25] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: omg, the dpkg package move worked :D
[05:25] <mintee_> YAY, for apt-get...  /usr/bin/mythfrontend: line 18:  7878 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) /usr/bin/mythfrontend.real "$@"
[05:25] <Jordan_U> Distro^Junkie, But is is not finished yet, if you want stable stick with Beryl or Compiz
[05:25] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, It shouldn't have let you do that
[05:25] <aphroguy116> Pelo, BTW, this is c0mp13371331337
[05:25] <cishpix> mono6: thanks for the link. U mean that, the best way is still use samba like PDC in linux-linux machine, isn't it?
[05:25] <Tom-Miller> mono6: I like ubuntuguide.org or what ever it is
[05:26] <mono6> Compiz-Fusion works great. The have great documentation for Ubuntu. However ATI cards are a pain to configure (XGL)
[05:26] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Has it actually been removed yet? What is happening?
[05:26] <pvl1> is there a disk defragmenter for ubuntu?
[05:26] <Jordan_U> !defrag | pvl1
[05:26] <ubotu> pvl1: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[05:26] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I didn't mean move, my bad: I followed the chroot stuff on the grub pretty much solid and then ran the "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages"
[05:26] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, now you can pastebin your xorg.conf
[05:26] <cishpix> Frogzoo: nfs > samba : true (I don't understand)
[05:26] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: and that was the first time that's worked
[05:26] <mono6> cishpix: linux-windows it is Samba, linux-linux, openldap/NFS
[05:27] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Good, removing dpkg would be BAD :)
[05:27] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  has bunch of subsections, they all have an entry for depth, and modes.  under modes, they all say 1024 x 768
[05:27] <Tom-Miller> man, I am inpressed with Wubi
[05:27] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: so now I have a my-packages in my ~/ directory and I can run the apt-get remove stuff, what exactly am I removing? sudo apt-get remove x* ?
[05:27] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Oh, it was my mistake I read remove, not move :)
[05:27] <mono6> ubotu: depends on the partitioning..if you partition for seperate /var and /home dirs, defragmentation will be less of an issue
[05:27] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: no, cantt pastebin from that machine not online
[05:27] <mikubuntu> arrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhh
[05:27] <cishpix> mono6: I've read the tutorial about NFS, but it doesn't support like PDC
[05:28] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, What's the DefautDepth?
[05:28] <Tom-Miller> Jordan_U: when you use use apt-get, never use the '*' in it, its a quick way to break your system
[05:28] <mono6> cishpix: right, because NFS does not do authetication (like a PDC), that is handled by openldap
[05:28] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, First just try apt-get remove --reinstall xserver-xorg ( nothing will actually be removed, but all the packages will have to be downloaded again )
[05:28] <Jordan_U> Tom-Miller, He has a backup package list
[05:28] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  default depth 24
[05:28] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: one sec, I'm gonna get me a network cable then
[05:29] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, all appears to be fine...
[05:29] <mattg> how do i get it to read my dvds?
[05:29] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: then each subsection depth is different
[05:29] <mono6> mattg: what kind of dvds
[05:29] <cishpix> mono6: Can the other user open the another user data in NFS??
[05:29] <mattg> movies, mono6
[05:29] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, yes
[05:29] <mono6> cishpix: it is possible, yes
[05:30] <Tom-Miller> mattg: you need to install dvdcss2 or something like that to be able to read encrypted formats
[05:30] <Optimus55> anyone know a good site dedicated to ubuntu/linux gaming?
[05:30] <mono6> mattg: movies require restricted drivers. hold on for a link.
[05:30] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, can you access a apps menu like "screen resolution"?
[05:30] <cishpix> brb
[05:30] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, The reason that I had you make the backup was more for if you end up having to remove more than just xserver-xorg ( if you remove then re-install it doesn't need to re-download the package, but if the package is what is corrupted that might not help )
[05:30] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  but it's not fine, because that machine is not resolving at 1024 x 768, i think it's more like 320 x whatever, i'm telling you is VERY sloppy
[05:30] <mono6> mattg, https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-badformats
[05:31] <mattg> thx
[05:31] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  let me look, but it seems like i've been there already
[05:31] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: it's removing now, so I'll let you know what happens
[05:31] <mikubuntu> vague recollection
[05:31] <mono6> mattg, just be careful, some of the restricted codecs might not be legal where you live
[05:31] <mattg> usa, mono6
[05:31] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, I think that your monitor isn't widescreen, right?
[05:31] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: It had "removing" next to all of them, and then gave me the prompt again, doesn't look like it reinstalled them
[05:32] <mono6> mattg, well the libdvdcss2 lib is not legal here, but everyone seems to be using it
[05:32] <mattg> mono6, who would know about the restricted codes?
[05:32] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: no, don't think so, just normal screen
[05:32] <mono6> mattg, that's the lib to decrypt encrtypted DVDs
[05:32] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: can I just apt-get install xserver and gdm and see what happens?
[05:32] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Ok, You might want to write down the commands you ran to chroot, you will have to do it again if you want to reboot and test if just re-installing xorg worked and it turns out it didn't, but then again I forgot why we need to do this from a LiveCD anyways :)
[05:32] <mono6> mattg, you'd be surprised... ;)
[05:33] <mattg> i want this on lockdown now!  how do i do it?  i want it so NOBODY can find out what i'm doing!  LMAO
[05:33] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, you have less video memory, but 2Mb supports 1024x768
[05:33] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, You won't be able to test the X server from the chroot ( OK you can but it is not worth the work to do it :)
[05:33] <mattg> mikubuntu: what kinda system u runnin?
[05:33] <mono6> mattg, g'luck. the RIAA just busted 2 student in my college with a $350k fine for file-sharing
[05:34] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj: display prefs: default, 800x600, 640x480, and 320x240
[05:34] <viverant> Hello I am trying to write a bash script to use sudo for multiple commands but when I try and do multiple line commands with a | separator  it doesnt pickup sudo and I cant figure out a way to pass it the sudo password
[05:34] <mattg> ouch, well, 1 of my boss' sisters got that kinda fine, too
[05:34] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: how can I make sure it's installed? Like I said, all it looks like it did was remove everything, and let's not forget I don't have gdm installed at all, I don't think
[05:34] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, did you try 800x600?
[05:34] <mattg> i dont share my files, so i haven't a problem
[05:34] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Did you run it with --reinstall ?
[05:34] <mono6> mattg, right the codecs are kinda a different legal (grey) issue
[05:34] <rafaelscj> mattg, he's running xubuntu
[05:35] <mattg> ahh, rafaelscj
[05:35] <mikubuntu> mattg: dell laptop rafaelscj: 800x600 doesn't change the res
[05:35] <pvl1> is there a way to find unused files and folders and delete them?
[05:35] <mattg> mono6, can they determine what codecs i am running?
[05:35] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: "apt-get remove --reinstall xserver-xorg"
[05:35] <mono6> mattg, probably not. if you're really paranoid you can encrypt your file system
[05:35] <mattg> what dell laptop model, mikubuntu?
[05:36] <Random832> is there a UI for setting xkb options that's not tied in to gnome?
[05:36] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Then X should be there, you can install GDM again though before you reboot
[05:36] <rafaelscj> mattg, http://www.baber.com/used/used_laptops/delllatitude-d300xt-2.htm
[05:36] <Tom-Miller> personally, I think if you bought the DVD, you should have all the rights to free codecs to play it without have to worry about anythign legal, your paying for the movie, not the dvd encryption format.
[05:36] <mattg> omg that's a junker, rafaelscj
[05:36] <mikubuntu> mattg: dell cpi d300xt
[05:36] <mono6> Tom-Miller, agreed, but the legislation in the US is (pardon) f'ed up
[05:36] <Kevin`> just ignore the insane rules and get what you need
[05:36] <pvl1> is there an app thatll find unused files and folders and delete them
[05:36] <Kevin`> nobody cares
[05:37] <mattg> wanna see mine, mikubuntu?
[05:37] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: BALLS. "apt-get install gdm" gives me the same frigging "invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed." error again
[05:37] <grandy> hello, an anyone tell me how to add /usr/local/bin to the path for all users?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, OK, we'll hack it to shut it up :)
[05:37] <mono6> grandy: export $PATH:/usr/local/bin
[05:37] <mattg> http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?docname=c00847958&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN  mikubuntu rafaelscj
[05:38] <Tom-Miller> mono6: I sometimes wounder, the US government supports freedom, free speach, free press, etc.  But not free software, or open standers?
[05:38] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  in that terminal you had me open it says: if you have edited this file but wsould like it to be automatically updated again, run the following command: sudo dpkg- reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:38] <Tom-Miller> mono6: thinking about it makes me puke.
[05:38] <mattg> that's my baby!!!
[05:38] <mono6> oops...export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
[05:38] <Random832> Tom-Miller: wait - which of those does the US government support?
[05:38] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I'm game, but this is the same error that seemed to have started this whole thing
[05:38] <Random832> [i know, i know, it was a cheap shot... sorry] 
[05:38] <mono6> Tom-Miller: well, i am originally from Europe, but live here and feel the same way
[05:38] <Tom-Miller> Random832: lol. ok "claim" to support
[05:38] <Milk_> hey guys, have you ever heard of a process or command named 'datacenter'
[05:39] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Yes, but in this case it actually makes sense that it wouldn't work :)
[05:39] <pvl1> US has one of the least democratic forms of democracy
[05:39] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: all right, tell me what to do :D
[05:39] <Jordan_U> pvl1, s/democracy/republic
[05:39] <pvl1> we have 2 main parties to vote on
[05:39] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, you didn't do any change
[05:39] <kanhh> can any1 help ? I have a Packard Bell USB WiPen, it can find the router but it wont connect
[05:40] <atheodo> hi all
[05:40] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  i know, but WHY am i getty such a cruddy pic?
[05:40] <mono6> kanhh: have you checked the Ubuntu wiki?
[05:40] <atheodo> just finished installing my ubuntu
[05:40] <grandy> mono6: where should I put that so that it gets run each time a user logs in?
[05:40] <Tom-Miller> lol, sorry, didn't mean to turn the channel into ##politics
[05:40] <atheodo> does anybody know how can I activate the ftp service?
[05:40] <mjancaiti1> !ftp
[05:40] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[05:40] <mono6> grandy, somewhere in your init-scripts...lemme look
[05:40] <atheodo> i want to be able to use ftp to backup some documents on this machines
[05:41] <mjancaiti1> atheodo, check out those clients
[05:41] <mjancaiti1> !Nautilus
[05:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nautilus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:41] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, :(
[05:41] <pvl1> atheodo u need an ftp app
[05:41] <mikubuntu> Tom-Miller: ya, really there's only one viable party for the next election, and its NOT bush's
[05:41] <atheodo> ubotu, these are servers as well?
[05:41] <speaker219> Does anybody know if there's a fix for the Flash Player crashing bug in firefox that happens every so often?
[05:41] <mjancaiti1> ubotu's a bot
[05:41] <rafaelscj> how do i to install a ftp server?
[05:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about s a bot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:41] <mjancaiti1> :D
[05:41] <mono6> grandy: /etc/rc.local would be a good choice
[05:41] <begenxboys> hy
[05:41] <adastra23> :)
[05:41] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  thanks for all your help, i know you did every thing you knew
[05:41] <pvl1> atheodo uboto is a robot, but you need to get an ftp application that will manage and offer the service
[05:42] <grandy> mono6: ahh thanks!
[05:42] <speaker219> Does anybody know if there's a fix for the Flash Player crashing bug in firefox that happens every so often?
[05:42] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: should I be rebooting, and into regular mode or recovery?
[05:42] <mikubuntu> and still fell short :)
[05:42] <mikubuntu> lol
[05:42] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Stay in the chroot for now, I am looking at the script
[05:42] <pvl1> so does anyone know of any application thatll find unused files/folders and delete them?
[05:42] <mjancaiti1> K
[05:42] <atheodo> ok, how do i find the applications? do i have to go to the ubunty website?
[05:42] <Tom-Miller> mikubuntu: I disagree, I think both parties do the same exact same, and the US population keeps jumping back and forth between them, thinking that some how or another, it got better in the last 4 years
[05:42] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, try using k/ubuntu :)
[05:42] <mjancaiti1> atheodo: google's your friend
[05:42] <atheodo> ok i see
[05:43] <chris32680> atheodo: or just add/remove apps seems satisfy most needs
[05:43] <atheodo> thanks, I will google it right now (cannot beleive that google has become a verb !!! these days)
[05:43] <pvl1> Tom-miller we dont give others a chance, thats the main problem
[05:43] <rafaelscj> mikubuntu, or try google
[05:43] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Ok, first quick fix to try, run "nano  /etc/init.d/gdm"
[05:43] <mono6> Tom-Miller: yea, the 2-party system sucks...i am from Germany and we have 2 major parties and 2-3 smaller one...makes it much more dynamic
[05:43] <mikubuntu> rafaelscj:  this is my taxi partner's laptop, and when she gets it back, she's gonna knock me over the head with it.  she's a republican thru and thru.
[05:44] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: in it now
[05:44] <pvl1> mono6 the us has many more parties we just dont put any focus onto them
[05:44] <Tom-Miller> mono6: we have many smaller parites, more then 2 or 3 smaller ones
[05:44] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, And near the top there should be a line with "set -e", put a "#" at the beginning of that line
[05:44] <mikubuntu> the screen looks like a 2nd grader is drawing it
[05:44] <mono6> pvl1, right, but it won't happen any time soon
[05:44] <Tom-Miller> mono6: just that they normally, all together, make up about 3% of all votes
[05:44] <Frogzoo> speaker219: flash works best on feisty, if you haven't upgraded - also, increase flash's cache to 10M or infinite
[05:44] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: got it
[05:44] <unique> is there a room to go to for noobs?
[05:44] <pvl1> mono6, aye i agree
[05:44] <mono6> unique: here? ;)
[05:44] <speaker219> Frogzoo: i use feisty
[05:44] <pvl1> unique u can just ask ur questions here
[05:45] <mikubuntu> i imagine this is what the 1962 one laptop per child looked like, tho i was not fortunate enough to have one AT THAT TIME
[05:45] <mozart_> Hi
[05:45] <mozart_> I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu, been a windows user and it feels great to finally have rid myself of that trash OS. Feisty Fawn is running smoothly and the compiz/beryl eyecandy is stunning. Now as with all ex window users all my USB external drives are in NTFS, getting the read/write ability with Automatix was easy, but now here is my problem the drives I plug in are recognized but I have no write permission, Feisty re
[05:45] <mozart_> ally should have a right-click option inbuilt for this, well I need something with a gui which allows me to change and set the permissions as I need, the command line usage is still new and daunting to me, also the family members in the house would appreciate that.
[05:45] <mozart_> thanks
[05:45] <unique> ok thanks i just switched from windows today still figuring things out
[05:45] <mozart_> ooops now I screwed it up a bit by right-clicking the desktop icon and changing the "ro" into "rw" and now it won't even mount the USB external disc! throws up this message:
[05:45] <mozart_> --------------------------

[05:45] <mozart_> --------------------------
[05:45] <mozart_> Help please
[05:45] <mono6> unique: welcome. don't be afraid to ask!
[05:46] <Tom-Miller> mozart_: what command are you using to mount it?
[05:46] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, set -e tells the script to stop completely the moment any of the commands it runs fails, removing it will hopefully let it continue and although it will still "fail" apt-get / dpkg will think it has installed fine ( which it in fact has anyways :)
[05:46] <mono6> mozart: try chmod ('man chmod')
[05:46] <pvl1> can i remove the files in cache/apt/archives?
[05:46] <mozart_> ok thx i'll try now
[05:46] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: Ok, what else?
[05:46] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Then quit and save the file and try apt-geting gdm again
[05:47] <varg> hi and how do i install my grafics card?
[05:47] <Tom-Miller> mozart_: wait, you need Linux to change permissions on a NTFS filesystem?  I am confused???
[05:47] <File13> !seen IntuitiveNipple
[05:47] <mono6> varg: you board should install fine on the install. what kind of problem are you having?
[05:47] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: gdm is already the newest version
[05:47] <Jordan_U> varg, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager most likely
[05:47] <unique> as far as visuals for the desktop what should i use i got compiz installed.... but im not sure if its working
[05:48] <atheodo> ok found it
[05:48] <mono6> Tom-Miller: he might have mounted it ro?
[05:48] <varg> have no problem...kinda wierded out that everything just...works...
[05:48] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, That is where you got that error before isn't it?
[05:48] <Ashfire908> how do i install two ubuntu systems on the same computer so that grub gets updated with both systems (like if the kernel gets upgraded)
[05:48] <atheodo> there are a couple of them, but it's getting late, so I will try them tomorrow or something :-)
[05:48] <mono6> varg, welcome to Linux...it 'just' works
[05:48] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: correct, that's where it kept throwing the invoke-rc.d, went clean this time
[05:49] <mozart_> Sorry i got logged out
[05:49] <mozart_> Now as with all ex window users all my USB external drives are in NTFS, getting the read/write ability with Automatix was easy, but now here is my problem the drives I plug in are recognized but I have no write permission, Feisty really should have a right-click option inbuilt for this, well I need something with a gui which allows me to change and set the permissions as I need, the command line usage is still new an
[05:49] <mozart_> d daunting to me, also the family members in the house would appreciate that.
[05:49] <mozart_> thanks
[05:49] <mozart_> ooops now I screwed it up a bit by right-clicking the desktop icon and changing the "ro" into "rw" and now it won't even mount the USB external disc! throws up this message:
[05:49] <mozart_> --------------------------
[05:49] <varg> so u don't need to install all the diffrent components?...like grafics and mobo components?..
[05:49] <mozart_> Cannot mount volume
[05:49] <mozart_> invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume "Music"
[05:49] <mozart_> --------------------------
[05:49] <preaction> mozart_, do not do that again please
[05:49] <atheodo> by the way i am running ubuntu as a virtual machine under windows vista using vmware desktop
[05:49] <mozart_> Help please
[05:49] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Ok, delete that "#" again then reboot
[05:49] <snarfer> DCC SEND "HAX" 0 0 0
[05:49] <mono6> Ashfire908, it's a bit tricky...just take the entries from the last-installed OS from 'menu.lst' and copy paste them into your current grub
[05:49] <mozart_> sorry what?
[05:49] <atheodo> that things really rocks, it took care of all the driver installation for me, this is the first linux that I have that has sound and works with my network card right out the box :_)
[05:49] <Ashfire908> mono6 there's no automatic way of doing it?
[05:49] <Jordan_U> !automatix | mozart_
[05:49] <ubotu> mozart_: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[05:49] <atheodo> and it's running pretty fast
[05:50] <rafaelscj> is there a gui ftp server?
[05:50] <atheodo> anybody else using vmware desktop in here?
[05:50] <preaction> mozart_, you spam the channel with your question and it's disruptive. just state your question once. you already did so.
[05:50] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: rebooting into normal install, right?
[05:50] <mozart_> ok so shouls i uninstall Automatix?????
[05:50] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Yes
[05:50] <mono6> Ashfire908, not that i am aware of, because the install will overwrite your current bootloader. some distros will include older recognized entires
[05:50] <pvl1> rafaelscj yes its called gproftp
[05:50] <atheodo> rafael, from what i can see no, all ftp server are command line, but pretty easy
[05:50] <atheodo> try this one
[05:50] <preaction> mozart_, doesn't matter anymore, it's too late now.
[05:50] <elkbuntu> mozart_, the damage is already done
[05:50] <mozart_> i know
[05:50] <atheodo> http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-vsftpd-ftp-service-server/
[05:50] <Jordan_U> mozart_, If it has done any damage then uninstalling won't help, the damage is done
[05:50] <mozart_> i used automatix to install lots of things
[05:50] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: installing
[05:50] <atheodo> it seems pretty straightforward
[05:50] <mono6> mozart_: Automatix is not really something I would recommend
[05:51] <rafaelscj> pvl1, thanks
[05:51] <preaction> !paste | mozart_, paste your /etc/fstab. there's something bad in there that mount doesn't like
[05:51] <ubotu> mozart_, paste your /etc/fstab. there's something bad in there that mount doesn't like: 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)
[05:51] <pvl1> rafaelscj no problem
[05:51] <mozart_> slowly please
[05:51] <preaction> mozart_, do not paste to the channel, follow the link ubotu told you about
[05:51] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Installing?
[05:51] <mjancaiti1> Er, booting, Jordan
[05:51] <mozart_> ok
[05:51] <mjancaiti1> My bad
[05:51] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, ;)
[05:51] <adastra23> I've got a buddy with a DVD/CD driver issue - I'm stumped - thread here - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=536498
[05:51] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: ok, it got to a tty login prompt again, and then brought up the blue "failed to start xserver" message
[05:52] <preaction> mozart_, once i can see your /etc/fstab, i can help you use ntfs-3g to get it to mount correctly
[05:52] <Ashfire908> if automatrix is so bad why do people use it? and what exaclty does it do?
[05:52] <pvl1> is there like a disk cleanup tool in ubuntu?
[05:52] <mozart_> sorry how do i get the info so then i can paste my /etc/fstab as you asked me
[05:52] <Tom-Miller> Ashfire908: it can sometimes help install software that is difficult to install
[05:53] <mono6> Ashfire908, I would consider Automatix to be "beta". it does a lot of automated tasks, like "YasT" in SusE
[05:53] <kazim59> I've a .chm file that does not render correctly.. text is block-block-block-block... but when I copy this text to somewhere else... I can read it ..
[05:53] <Jordan_U> preaction, ntfs-config will set it up automatically
[05:53] <Tom-Miller> Ashfire908: but it also has a high chance of breaking your system
[05:53] <mozart_> ok i have the ntfs-3g
[05:53] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | mozart_
[05:53] <ubotu> mozart_: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:53] <mjancaiti1> For what it's worth, automatix has never broken any of my installs
[05:53] <kazim59> the gnochm output in the terminal says PangoWarning: shape engine failure, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Arial Bold Not-Rotated 6.999023437
[05:53] <preaction> mozart_, there's a file called /etc/fstab, you open it in a text editor, paste it to the http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org website, and give me the link
[05:53] <Jordan_U> mozart_, Note that link also covers configuration
[05:53] <mono6> Ashfire908: the beauty of Linux is the transparency and tools like Automatix take some of the control away from you
[05:53] <mjancaiti1> Well, not true; Automatix's VMWare install always screws it up
[05:53] <elkbuntu> mjancaiti1, count yourself lucky then
[05:53] <mozart_> Automatix to me came through MYEASYUBUNTU, somehow so then i just used it
[05:53] <demonspork> how do I install a source package that has a /debian folder in it?
[05:54] <mono6> demonspork, still didn't work, huh?
[05:54] <Jordan_U> Ashfire908, Not to mention Automatix is poorly written, defective by design, and dangerous
[05:54] <preaction> Jordan_U, yes, but if you were following the entire conversation you'd see that won't work here. mount is barfing on a bad option in /etc/fstab on a USB disk that is trying to automount
[05:54] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: do I need to run some nvidia x configuration something or other?
[05:54] <demonspork> mono6, I don't really know what I need to run
[05:54] <Tom-Miller> pvl1: what do you need to clean up?
[05:54] <SunmanXII> hey guys i have a problem - when i plug in my external HD it reads as a read-only for some reason
[05:54] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: or can I just go poke around in it for a minute? (I got pretty good with xorg.conf a while back as a courtesy of stupid laptop displays)
[05:54] <mikubuntu> Jordan_U: you made some comments about this screen resolution  prob i'm having earlier ... i think i wore rafaelscj out for the last three hours and we still couldn't fix it, do you have any ideas, or better yet, a QUIK FIX
[05:54] <mono6> demonspork, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[05:54] <preaction> SunmanXII, NTFS hard drive?
[05:54] <Ashfire908> Jordan_U then why do people use it isn't there a DANGER DO NOT USE message?
[05:55] <pvl1> tom-miller idk like unused files
[05:55] <daytona89> when linux boots, which file does it use to keep track of which drives will be mounted, etc?
[05:55] <unique> whats the best desktop ui to use?
[05:55] <preaction> daytona89, /etc/fstab
[05:55] <mono6> demonspork, a complete walkthrough would be a little bit to extensive in here
[05:55] <demonspork> daytona89, etc/fstab
[05:55] <Jordan_U> Ashfire908, People do a lot of things they shouldn't and there is a lot of ignorance about Automatix
[05:55] <mozart_> i can't get to /etc/fstab it says permission denied even when i did sudo before
[05:55] <Tom-Miller> pvl1: the only files you really need to worry about keeping clean, are files in /home/username
[05:55] <Ashfire908> unique, depends.
[05:55] <mjancaiti1> I think you want to type cat /etc/fstab
[05:55] <SunmanXII> preaction, yes
[05:55] <preaction> mozart_, type this in a terminal: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[05:55] <Ashfire908> unique, there's GNOME, KDE, and Xfce
[05:55] <mjancaiti1> That'll give you output in the terminal
[05:55] <Tom-Miller> pvl1: by installing and uninstalling packages, the system will keep the rest of the file system "clean" for you
[05:56] <preaction> !ntfs-3g | SunmanXII
[05:56] <ubotu> SunmanXII: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:56] <pvl1> tom-miller what about cache/apt/archives, id like to free up some more space
[05:56] <rafaelscj> do you like EnLghtEnMent?
[05:56] <mono6> unique: GNOME, lightweight, powerful; KDE, more powerful, easy; XFCE: VERY lightwieght, not so powerful
[05:56] <mozart_> ok i got it
[05:56] <SunmanXII> thanks preaction ill try
[05:56] <daytona89> in /etc/fstab I have '/dev/hda1 /media/hda1 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0' yet my NTFS drive does not mount. How do I fix this?
[05:56] <kazim59> !fonts
[05:56] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[05:56] <Jordan_U> Ashfire908, And the developers claim that it is perfectly stable and has never caused any problems, which even if it were true would not make it any less of a hack
[05:56] <Tom-Miller> pvl1: sudo apt-get purge     I *THINK* will delete old package files, let me make sure first
[05:56] <mozart_> can i paste it here????

[06:02] <mikubuntu> i can't believe i've been trying to get this screen resolution right for 4 and a half hours now .... arrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhh
[06:02] <adorablepuppy> mono6: Additionally, the terminal suggests I should get ndiswrapper-common, whcih also doesn't work.
[06:02] <Jordan_U> PoofDaddy, You can get a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1

[06:02] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, oh, ok. sorry
[06:02] <Ashfire908> mono6: you forgot the install part
[06:03] <PoofDaddy> preaction: I don't think that it's an option on that machine cause I tried that and it didn't work.
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> murtadashah: shouldn't need samba for that then.  Should be able to do it by default actually.
[06:03] <mikubuntu> time for cigarette break, whether or not thats politically correct
[06:03] <preaction> does anyone know if lsusb will show the /dev node of a usb disk? or would i have to parse dmsg?
[06:03] <mono6> adorablepuppy: ndiswrapper-utils and ndiswrapper-common
[06:03] <Ashfire908> mono6: you put  apt-get ndiswrapper
[06:03] <preaction> PoofDaddy, are you sure it's an ubuntu machine?
[06:03] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I reconfigured X again, and did a gdm restart, and I get the same symptoms that started all this: a black screen before the login prompt and a "thinking" cursor, the spinning one; doesn't do anything
[06:03] <unique> whats some favored firewalls?
[06:03] <PoofDaddy> Jordan_U  don't think that it's an option on that machine cause I tried that and it didn't work.

[06:03] <eulallia1> >.> how do i install linux on a different partition without it overwriting my current xp boot, and if photoshop is on my 2nd partition, will it be overwritten? >.>
[06:04] <mono6> really? hm...
[06:04] <titancompu> Hey, I have two internet connections available to me. My personal one and my schools. I have two NICs available as well. Is it possible to combine the power of the two internets together?
[06:04] <Kevin`> eulallia1 resize it
[06:04] <adorablepuppy> Gives the E: Couldn't find package ndiswrapper-blah
[06:04] <eulallia1> resize the partition?
[06:04] <preaction> PoofDaddy, then why is my name at the front of it?
[06:04] <eulallia1> >.>
[06:04] <Kevin`> yes
[06:04] <Kevin`> the installer can do this
[06:04] <eulallia1> the partitions are over 50 gb each
[06:04] <PoofDaddy> preaction: I didn't see any line of kernal for recovery mode.  in fact it only loaded Ubuntu up and had no options for anything else as far as I know
[06:04] <Jordan_U> PoofDaddy, If the function keys have alternate uses ( mine control volume / brightness ) you may need to use the fn key to get them to actually act like function keys
[06:04] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: I'll be around for a while, but not constantly, so pm me if you have any ideas, and if not, have yourself a good night and I'll tackle it again later :)
[06:04] <murtadashah> tonyyarusso: hmm... is that a VM thing or Ubuntu setup? I click on my places then the windows network is empty
[06:04] <eulallia1> plenty room
[06:04] <eulallia1> i just dont want it to overwrite XD
[06:04] <leo_rockw> do you guys know of any ntfs defrag app for lignux?
[06:04] <preaction> daytona89, mount /dev/hda1 <- since you have an entry in /etc/fstab, that should give you the error message (or just work)
[06:04] <mono6> adorablepuppy: worked for me here, are you using Feisty?
[06:04] <PoofDaddy> preaction: I'm sorry.  My mistake.
[06:04] <adorablepuppy> . . . .  OH! I forgot to set my source list!
[06:04] <preaction> leo_rockw, ntfs doesn't need defrag
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> murtadashah: just mount the partition instead of using the network
[06:05] <adorablepuppy> It's still at default, silly me.

[06:05] <Kevin`> eulallia1 resize one of the partitions
[06:05] <eulallia1> it needs to be?
[06:05] <Ashfire908> mono6: in the grub wiki page, what it talking about symlinks? i know what symbolic links are but i have no clue what that does
[06:05] <eulallia1> theres only like 3 things on it, some sql >.> and my photoshop pics XD
[06:05] <Kevin`> well, unless you have unpartitioned space, which I doubt you do
[06:05] <mono6> Ashfire908: i never used symlinks with grub
[06:05] <eulallia1> and my photoshop will be deleted?
[06:05] <eulallia1> :(
[06:05] <preaction> PoofDaddy, fiesty? when grub boots you should have two seconds to press "esc" to see the full grub menu
[06:06] <Ashfire908> mono6: what they are trying to do
[06:06] <Kevin`> eulallia1 why would it be deleted
[06:06] <eulallia1> its on the partition which linux will be installed

[06:06] <mozart_> can someone please help me and post a little response to this mail http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3265109#post3265109
[06:06] <Kevin`> the installer can do it
[06:06] <eulallia1> without overwriting either
[06:06] <Kevin`> or use a gparted livecd

[06:06] <mono6> Ashfire908: grub is really pretty simple...you have ONE master grub that you use and you just add entries to menu.lst and that's it
[06:06] <preaction> daytona89, are you sure you have a valid /dev/hda1 partition? is windows still on it? can you boot from it?
[06:06] <PoofDaddy> preaction: I will try that now
[06:06] <eulallia1> wow ubotu should do /noticeses instead of /msg $chan
[06:06] <eulallia1> XD
[06:07] <Kevin`> eulallia1 the resizing is non-destructive. just think with common sense
[06:07] <eulallia1> psh i havent used linux before
[06:07] <eulallia1> dont ask me :P
[06:07] <preaction> eulallia1, most people don't listen to /notice, really
[06:07] <Ashfire908> mono6 i'm not too comfortable messing with it
[06:07] <eulallia1> they would listen to /msg
[06:07] <preaction> !enter @ eulallia1

[06:07] <mono6> Ashfire908: after that re-install with grub-install /dev/hda (or wherever you have your bootloade)
[06:07] <eulallia1> -.-?
[06:07] <eulallia1> -.-
[06:07] <mattg> my mouse theme wont change... :(
[06:07] <eulallia1> lol i installed xubuntu on an old laptop, lagged XD
[06:07] <mono6> Ashfire908: you cannot break it, really...if it fails you can use the install disk
[06:07] <eulallia1> 256 ram >.>
[06:08] <Kevin`> did you configure at least 2d accellerated video drivers?
[06:08] <eulallia1> me?
[06:08] <Kevin`> yes
[06:08] <eulallia1> is it already configured on install
[06:08] <eulallia1> >.>
[06:08] <Ashfire908> eulallia1, resizing a ntfs (windows) partition is tricky cause windows lets the files get fragmented
[06:08] <kazim59> Hey ppl.. wish me good luck.. because I'm gonna start reading the book Linux Kernel Dev... lol hehe
[06:08] <Kevin`> the unaccellerated/framebuffer drivers are slow/laggy
[06:08] <mono6> Ashfire908: Boot the Live CD...mount your /boot partition, do a chroot and a grub-install
[06:08] <eulallia1> i have a sata and ntfs
[06:08] <eulallia1> =P
[06:08] <kazim59> the font problem was fixed, thanks
[06:08] <preaction> daytona89, then try specifying the type: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 <mountpoint>
[06:08] <eulallia1> er
[06:08] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, do you know of any defragmenter that runs on linux?
[06:08] <eulallia1> fat32
[06:08] <unique> Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[06:09] <Kevin`> Ashfire908 it's not tricky at all. the program can handle fragmented files
[06:09] <eulallia1> rofl is there a linux that acts like a mac
[06:09] <eulallia1> :D
[06:09] <mono6> leo_rockw: there is no defrag to my knowledge
[06:09] <Jordan_U> !defrag | leo_rockw
[06:09] <ubotu> leo_rockw: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[06:09] <Ashfire908> mono6: the system it's on (a server) doesn't like livecds and dumps me onto the command line
[06:09] <daytona89> preaction: what do you put in <mountpoint>?
[06:09] <leo_rockw> not for ext3
[06:09] <leo_rockw> for fat/ntfs
[06:09] <leo_rockw> to defrag a win partition from linux
[06:09] <Kevin`> eulallia1 I hope not =p
[06:09] <mono6> leo_rockw: would not be really wise to do it anyway...you can still boot into Windows after all
[06:09] <preaction> daytona89, the mount point. the directory where the drive should be mounted
[06:09] <unique> installing kde
[06:09] <eulallia1> lol kevin i hope so
[06:09] <eulallia1> :P
[06:09] <eulallia1> <3 mac
[06:09] <Ashfire908> Kevin`, oh. oh! it was really stupid with the space recovered.
[06:09] <leo_rockw> mono6, i don't trust those win apps, lol
[06:10] <unique> whats should i do Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[06:10] <panfist> hey, i have ubuntu installed on my HP laptop and its behaving weird...all i have open is the file browser and a PDF reader, and im not doing anything..yet every 30 secs it reads or writes to the disk. im not sure why, i just want it to stop so i have some longer battery life. how can i find out what is accessing the disk? thanks
[06:10] <Ashfire908> Kevin`, least it was for me
[06:10] <mono6> leo_rockw: then get rid of NTFS....bad, baaaad filesystem
[06:10] <preaction> unique, run sudo apt-get update?

[06:10] <leo_rockw> mono6, i will on my laptop. can't do it on the desktop tho, it isn't mine alone
[06:11] <PoofDaddy> preaction: i did it when i saw the option to hit esc, but it just boots to Ubuntu immediately.
[06:11] <Kevin`> Ashfire908 the intent is to move it using the least time, not to make a perfectly defragmented filesystem after the resizing. do that after.
[06:11] <mattg> there i got it figured out.  had to restart x
[06:11] <PoofDaddy> preaction:Doesn't give me an option for the recovery mode. I now what you're talking about though, because I'm using Ubuntu on this machine and I see it everytime I boot.
[06:11] <mono6> leo_rockw: i hear you....well, use Win to defrag... ;)
[06:11] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw, you can't defrag from windows. you can do a safemode boot in windows and defrag. should get most of the files moveable. i screwed up though you DON'T need to defrag it
[06:11] <daytona89> preaction: still same error... I wonder if something about that partition got messed up...?
[06:11] <mignish> Can someone direct me to some documentation or a howto... anything that will help me configure a users write access in proftpd?
[06:11] <preaction> PoofDaddy, looks like someone configured grub to skip that menu. you'll have to use a live CD to recover your X
[06:12] <preaction> daytona89, try with -t ntfs instead
[06:12] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, ok
[06:12] <panfist> is there a program i can run that lets me monitor hard disk access?
[06:12] <Ashfire908> Kevin`,  no it would fail to resize if there was too much free space after the drive
[06:12] <PoofDaddy> preaction: that I have and that I will do
[06:12] <Ashfire908> panfist gnome-monitor
[06:12] <leo_rockw> mono6, either use win to defrag or make it a tinny partition so there's not enough room for fragmenting anyway :-P
[06:12] <mono6> leo_rockw: correct ;)
[06:12] <Ashfire908> panfist but it just shows how much is being done
[06:12] <Kevin`> not enough room for fragmentation? that's a contradiction
[06:13] <Jordan_U> leo_rockw, Less space means more fragmentation
[06:13] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw: windows is more stupid with fragmentation than you think.
[06:13] <mono6> leo_rockw: well, NTFS will defragment in a heartbeart, because Windows' HDD cache management s***s
[06:13] <panfist> ashfire908 i dont want to just that it is being accessed, but what specific programs are using it, and what they are doing
[06:14] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, yeah, i just realized that. i'm not the one that will be using the win box anyway. i'm fine w/ my lignux
[06:14] <Ashfire908> panfist do a search in add/remove programs or synaptic
[06:14] <Kevin`> I personally ignore fragmentation, on both linux and windows
[06:14] <mono6> quick poll: what do you feel is missing in Ubuntu?
[06:14] <Kevin`> mono6 arm support? ;)
[06:15] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | mono6
[06:15] <ubotu> mono6: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:15] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw, you will need to have windows check it's ntfs journal cause windows is even more stupid with that.
[06:15] <mono6> oops, wrong channel ;)
[06:15] <daytona89> preaction: still thinks it's not an NTFS vol. Gonna go reboot and make sure I can still boot windows...
[06:15] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw, it will do it automaticly. just boot it aftr you are done partitioning
[06:15] <preaction> daytona89, sounds good. sure it isn't fat32?
[06:16] <Outlander> hi
[06:16] <mono6> time to hit the sack. g'nite.
[06:16] <Outlander> what's the easiest way to rip dvd to xvid?
[06:16] <Ashfire908> does windows even check it's journal? or use it at all?
[06:16] <daytona89> preaction: yes, definitely. I'll bbiab to let you know how it went. Thanks for the help!
[06:16] <whta> idling too long in ubuntu now completely turns off my computer to where I can't turn it back on. I have to flip off the soft switch and turn it back on for it to work again. windows does not do this. what's going on?
[06:16] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[06:16] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, i already installed kubuntu on my lappy a long time ago but it wasn't on a partition. the whole hd is ubuntufied. i'll keep that in mind for the desktop, tho
[06:17] <astro76> Outlander, try dvd::rip
[06:17] <Outlander> cool thanks
[06:17] <Ashfire908> whtm sounds like it's either failing to suspend or hibernate
[06:17] <doug__> can u run nintendo emulators installed on ubuntu to run in xp?
[06:17] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw, you can't NOT have a partition
[06:17] <astro76> doug__, huh?
[06:17] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, well i meant that i only have an ubuntu partition (and the swap) but no windoze
[06:17] <unique> ok when im done with the kde installation should i reboot?
[06:17] <teKnofreak> whta, check your Power Savings Manager and stop your system from moving to suspend or hibernate when it is idle for N mins
[06:18] <Ashfire908> leo_rockw, that's a ext3 partition
[06:18] <unique> or is there something else ill have to do?
[06:18] <teKnofreak> unique, restart X
[06:18] <doug__> astro76,  if u get a snes emulator install it in ubuntu and thn get on xp can u play it on xp while its installed on ubuntu?
[06:18] <leo_rockw> Ashfire908, yup... but i wasn't thinking about installing lignux on my desktop. i never had to do the whole xp rezising and stuff before.
[06:19] <GmrAddc> can anybody help me install a ati X1650 video card?

[06:19] <GmrAddc> ?
[06:20] <Ashfire908> GmrAddc, did you try activating the restriced drive?
[06:20] <astro76> doug__, linux and windows run entirely different software. That said, zsnes is available for both windows and linux.
[06:20] <Ashfire908> *driver
[06:20] <teKnofreak> leo_rockw, if you have a free/can be freed E or F drive (extra partition) then use it for installing linux
[06:20] <GmrAddc> yea and next time i restart it jsut stays at a blank screen :(
[06:20] <doug__> astro76,  thanks
[06:20] <Ashfire908> GmrAddc, blank screen? the whole screen?
[06:20] <gortba_> Hi everyone. Can someone give me some guidelines on how much space to allocate the my 250 gig hard drive for /, /home, and /boot partitions?
[06:21] <wolferine> doug__, back for another round of leanin' linux
[06:21] <GmrAddc> yes the entire screen just stays black
[06:21] <leo_rockw> teKnofreak, i'm probly going to do that, thanks
[06:21] <Ashfire908> GmrAddc: oh after you enable desktop effects?
[06:21] <leo_rockw> GmrAddc, i made a post in the ubuntuforums once about an x1400. it may be useful for you. lemme find it
[06:21] <teKnofreak> gord, its your wish, depending upon how much stuffs you want to save, /boot needs to be 512M max IIRC
[06:22] <teKnofreak> errr... gortba_ ^^
[06:22] <GmrAddc> nope just when i enable the restricted drivers, then i reboot, and it goes past the loading screen but never gets to the login screen
[06:22] <GmrAddc> it just stays black
[06:22] <teKnofreak> gortba_, and have something around 15-20 Gig /
[06:22] <astro76> gortba_, I'd make / 15-20 GB and /home the rest
[06:22] <astro76> hehe
[06:22] <teKnofreak> astro76, ;)
[06:22] <Ashfire908> GmrAddc can you get into the computer?
[06:22] <GmrAddc> no not at all
[06:22] <GmrAddc> im reinstalling ubuntu at the moment
[06:23] <gortba_> When I install software, does that use up / space?
[06:23] <WaltzingAlong> ugh. this is not ms windows. a reinstall is not the first option. lol
[06:23] <astro76> gortba_, yes
[06:23] <leo_rockw> GmrAddc, check my post on this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=516835
[06:23] <doug__> wolferine,  lol i been on linux
[06:23] <teKnofreak> gortba_, yes unless you are building from source and do the install in /home
[06:23] <unique> ok i just installed kde how do i know if its running?
[06:24] <leo_rockw> unique, startkde
[06:24] <teKnofreak> unique, in the login screen select Sessions --> KDE
[06:24] <PoofDaddy> preaction: ok I got a live CD running.  What should I do now?  Open a terminal and run some commands, right?  Which ones?
[06:24] <GmrAddc> ashfire any ideas?
[06:24] <gortba_> So, I like to install a lot of software, should I make / bigger that 15-20 GB?
[06:24] <astro76> gortba_, you can fit a metric ton of software in 20GB, linux programs are not as bloated as windows, in large part due to shared libraries
[06:24] <mikubuntu> leo_rockw: i have been having this problem for the last 4 or 5 hours since i did a fresh install of xub 704, cannot get proper screen resolution to render.  we checked the xorg.conf files and everything seems to be correct in there, everything set to 1024, but yet the actual res is nothing close, do you have any ideas?
[06:24] <WaltzingAlong> gortba_: that should be plenty
[06:24] <teKnofreak> gortba_, 20 gig should be ideal
[06:24] <GmrAddc> leo rock thats for a  x1400
[06:24] <gortba_> ahh I see
[06:24] <XdorotaX> how do i log in as root?
[06:25] <astro76> !sudo | XdorotaX
[06:25] <ubotu> XdorotaX: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:25] <teKnofreak> XdorotaX, why you need to ?
[06:25] <preaction> PoofDaddy, the first thing you'll want to do is mount your hard drive with ubuntu on it. then you want to "chroot" to the place you mounted that partition. then you can do :
[06:25] <leo_rockw> GmrAddc, i'm not 100% sure, but i think the drivers are the same

[06:26] <GmrAddc> lol im  a newbie, im trying to do this for a friend
[06:26] <GmrAddc> i use nvidia in linux :)
[06:26] <GmrAddc> so much better
[06:26] <teKnofreak> XdorotaX, sudo /etc/init.d/apache start
[06:26] <XdorotaX> ok
[06:26] <XdorotaX> thanx
[06:26] <leo_rockw> GmrAddc, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bkup
[06:26] <tondar> is there an app for call waiting in ubuntu?
[06:26] <GmrAddc> thankyou :)
[06:26] <daytona89> preaction: that partition appears to be broken. What are my options for attempting to fix it?
[06:27] <leo_rockw> mikubuntu, i was going to suggest to go through xorg... other than that idk
[06:27] <gortba_> One last thing. I want to try using logical volumes. Should I not allocate some of my space to allow my partitions to grow, or should I allocate everything as an LVM of some sort?
[06:27] <ome> How do I delete a directory and all the files in it from terminal
[06:27] <teKnofreak> GmrAddc, whenever you want to edit an existing config file, back it up
[06:27] <tonyyarusso> tondar: I'm sure asterisk could do that somehow, but no idea of the details
[06:27] <GmrAddc> i tried editing xorg and it just fucks it up every time
[06:27] <preaction> daytona89, beats me
[06:27] <GmrAddc> ive tried so many different forums and crap
[06:27] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | GmrAddc
[06:27] <ubotu> GmrAddc: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:27] <GmrAddc> its so annoying
[06:27] <Gaidin> how do i allow rwe access of a folder on an ext fat32 hdd to a windows machine?
[06:27] <GmrAddc> ok im sorry
[06:27] <astro76> gortba_, with just those partitions, you won't really need to do shuffling
[06:28] <daytona89> I have a messed up NTFS partition. Is there any linux software for attempting to diagnose/fix it?
[06:28] <tonyyarusso> Gaidin: I don't remember the syntax offhand, but look into changing the umask in /etc/fstab
[06:28] <leo_rockw> GmrAddc, you should always keep a backup of xorg.conf
[06:28] <mikubuntu> leo_rockw: is it possible or likely that it is a problem related to the install?  if i did a reinstall would that possibly help?  or some kind of upgrade to xorg?
[06:28] <Gaidin> heh? plaease not i am very new to linux
[06:28] <tondar> anyone any idea?
[06:28] <astro76> daytona89, ntfsfix in the ntfsprogs package
[06:28] <GmrAddc> any other ideas lol :P
[06:28] <tondar> call waiting under ubuntu
[06:28] <glguy> would anyone happen to know of a solution to my Dell D630 dropping to a busybox shell when I try to boot the liveCD?
[06:28] <ome> How do you delete a directory and all files in it from terminal?
[06:28] <GmrAddc> from anybody
[06:28] <onats> is anyone encountering problems with the 64 bit version fo ubuntu?
[06:28] <GmrAddc> god linux and ati are like......ewwwwwwwwwwwwww
[06:28] <astro76> ome, rm -r directory/
[06:29] <lgc_> Does anyone know a curve digitizer?
[06:29] <tonyyarusso> Gaidin: Google for "umask /etc/fstab fat32 0000"
[06:29] <teKnofreak> ome, rm -rf dir/
[06:29] <Gaidin> ok
[06:29] <Gaidin> ta
[06:29] <werkkrew> I have just installed Ubuntu on my spare pc for the first time and when I boot into recovery mode I am getting the last line as "v2.6:USB HID core driver" then it dumps me to a shell after about 5 minutes - Any ideas?
[06:29] <daytona89> astro76: I installed ntfsprogs. How do I use it? It's not in the menu.
[06:29] <leo_rockw> mikubuntu, this is not windoze... we usually don't need to reinstall. you can try sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade and see if that solves anything... but idk
[06:29] <swarna> coud anybody tell me how to mount partition in kde desktop
[06:29] <tondar> call waiting app in ubuntu??! any ideas??
[06:29] <PoofDaddy> preaction: that live CD hasn't finished booting.  There seems to be an error.  I'm using Helix, since i lost my Knoppix.  It says HELIX IMAGE is a squashfs compressed image.  Does that mean anything to you?
[06:29] <teKnofreak> daytona89, man ntfsprogs ?
[06:30] <astro76> daytona89, it's command line, you need to unmount the partition then sudo ntfsfix /dev/whatever
[06:30] <GmrAddc> :(
[06:30] <wolferine> swarna, do you know the type of the partition ?
[06:30] <teKnofreak> swarna, sudo mount /source/path dest/path
[06:30] <preaction> PoofDaddy, nothing whatsoever. any problem with getting a new live cd?
[06:30] <GmrAddc> ok bye guyes
[06:30] <lgc_> Curve digitizer, ala WinDig, for Linux? Help?
[06:31] <imbecile> hey all, I was wondering if there were any apps or anything that checks pucntuation.. I'm emailing this girl & I dont want alot of errors
[06:31] <daytona89> ntfsfix advises me to run chkdsk...?
[06:31] <teKnofreak> imbecile, doesn't your email client have a spell check ?
[06:31] <imbecile> teKnofreak:  nope :(
[06:32] <gortba_> astro76: Thanks for your help. Then here's what I gather. 512 mb for /boot ext3, 20 for / as a logical volume and /home the rest as a logical volume with / and /home under the same logical volume group. Lastly, what should be the primary partition?
[06:32] <astro76> daytona89, daytona89 from windows
[06:32] <PoofDaddy> preaction: helix is knoppix-based: http://www.e-fense.com/helix/index.php
[06:32] <teKnofreak> gortba_, the root
[06:32] <imbecile> i was just going to c/p from gedit or something.. does gedit have spell check?
[06:32] <astro76> gortba_, what about swap?
[06:32] <blackest> for some reason one of my ubuntu pc's is acting as a win server any idea what needs altering so it doesnt its creating chaos on my lan ?
[06:32] <unique> ok my mind just went out the window
[06:33] <unique> thanks guys
[06:33] <daytona89> astro76: so... put win on another drive, boot it, and use this one as a slave drive and chkdsk that way?
[06:33] <preaction> imbecile, because hiding your true self and your true inability to spell will really impress her 6 months down the line
[06:33] <astro76> gortba_, AFAIK they all can be logical, someone correct me if I'm wrong
[06:33] <gortba_> astro76: ahh...yes 1 gig for swap under the log vol group
[06:33] <astro76> daytona89, why do you have ntfs with no windows?
[06:33] <imbecile> preaction:  I just want a 1 night or so stand.. I dont want to date her
[06:34] <preaction> imbecile, at least you have an appropriate nickname
[06:34] <imbecile> thx
[06:34] <daytona89> astro76: my windows partition is ntfs, but it's on the same drive as Ubuntu, and it won't boot. Grub says the partition is not recognized (though it worked yesterday before I installed gfxboot)
[06:34] <imbecile> well that does'nt exactly answer my question though
[06:34] <imbecile> doesn't
[06:35] <Tom-Miller> help!
[06:35] <astro76> daytona89, maybe you can do it from the windows cd
[06:35] <gortba_> astro76: and teKnofreak: thanks much for your help. Installing a fresh system is always refreshing.
[06:35] <gortba_> Catch you all later.
[06:35] <teKnofreak> gortba_, you are always welcome :)
[06:35] <Tom-Miller> I tried installing compiz-fusion, and now it says something is wrong, and only lets me run apt-get -f install
[06:36] <Tom-Miller> and when I run it, I keep getting this error: "Errors were encountered while processing:
[06:36] <Tom-Miller>  /var/cache/apt/archives/compiz-gnome_1%3a0.5.5~git20070824+3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb
[06:36] <Tom-Miller> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[06:36] <preaction> Tom-Miller, #ubuntu-effects can help you
[06:36] <daytona89> astro76: I'll give it a shot. Back in a sec.
[06:36] <panfist> hey, i have ubuntu installed on my HP laptop and its behaving weird...all i have open is the file browser and a PDF reader, and im not doing anything..yet every 30 secs it reads or writes to the disk. im not sure why, i just want it to stop so i have some longer battery life. how can i find out what is accessing the disk? thanks
[06:36] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, the installation had some problem, remove the package using apt-get and then try to freshly install
[06:37] <lgc_> Flannel, you there?
[06:37] <warbler> !top
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about top - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:37] <tondar> call waiting app in ubuntu??! any ideas??
[06:37] <teKnofreak> panfist, is it slowing down your other things ?
[06:37] <Tom-Miller> teKnofreak: I can't remove, it says please run apt-get -f install
[06:37] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, do apt-get -f install.. what happens ?
[06:38] <Tom-Miller> teKnofreak: it gives the error message posted abot
[06:38] <Tom-Miller> above*
[06:38] <panfist> teknofreak: it is not slowing them down, but it is draining the battery. in windows when im reading a pdf the hard disk spins down after 5 minutes and i get at least 30 more minutes out of my battery
[06:38] <lgc_> Jordan_U, you there?
[06:38] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, try apt-get remove --force gnome-compiz
[06:38] <Tom-Miller> I tried doing sudo apt-get clean, then update again, but it didn't help
[06:38] <Jordan_U> lgc_, yes
[06:38] <teKnofreak> panfist, there is a possibility that it is running updatedb
[06:38] <Tom-Miller> E: Command line option --force is not understood
[06:38] <leo_rockw> imbecile, did you try the OO spell checker maybe?
[06:39] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, ah wait lemme check
[06:39] <leo_rockw> imbecile, i don't know of any app that checks punctuation, tho
[06:39] <imbecile> leo_rockw:  I'll give it a look
[06:39] <imbecile> thanks :)
[06:39] <leo_rockw> imbecile, np

[06:39] <leo_rockw> hello macaco
[06:40] <panfist> teknofreak i dont see a proc named updatedb in top or the gui monitor
[06:40] <Mr-Snick> ay, 2 questions;   1. anyone know a good firewall for ubuntu? 2. I have icons stuck on my panel, how do i restart just the panel to remove these dead icons?
[06:40] <teKnofreak> panfist, hmm
[06:40] <Kevin`> Mr-Snick the normal linux netfilter works fine..
[06:40] <teKnofreak> panfist, check your services and remove the unwanted ones
[06:41] <astro76> !firestarter | Mr-Snick
[06:41] <ubotu> Mr-Snick: 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).
[06:41] <Mr-Snick> ah ok, how would i go about accessing that?
[06:41] <Mr-Snick> nvm .. lol
[06:41] <macaco> hey guys how i can install amarok 1.4.7 on my ubuntu 7.04
[06:41] <Mr-Snick> ty
[06:41] <werkkrew> I have just installed Ubuntu on my spare pc for the first time and when I boot into recovery mode I am getting the last line as "v2.6:USB HID core driver" then it dumps me to a shell after about 5 minutes - Any ideas?
[06:41] <leo_rockw> macaco, i think it should be in the repositories
[06:41] <lgc_> Jordan_U, hi! I was wondering if you could help me out with 2 things: Do you happen to know of a Linux curve digitizer? And the other one is: I used the gtik2 applet all the time up to Edgy. And then some smart guy must have decided it was not good enough to include in Feisty, I suppose. Do you know how can I include it so I can place it on the panel?
[06:41] <macaco> i have old version
[06:41] <Tom-Miller> teKnofreak: ?
[06:42] <leo_rockw> macaco, ooo. you want especifically 1.4.7? then you probly need to wait if it is not in the repos already
[06:42] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, try to remove the particular package "gnome-compiz" and do an update
[06:42] <leo_rockw> macaco, or compile it yourself.
[06:42] <leo_rockw> macaco, or upgrade to gutsy which i don't recommend if you're a newbie
[06:43] <File13> heres a question....ive seen a torrent for like ubuntu ultimate before with all this stuff preinstalled, etc if i installed all the apps i wanted in ubuntu and got my wireless working by updating my drivers is there a way i could make an archive of that state so if i ever messed up i could just install ubuntu w/ those programs and the wireless configured properly?!
[06:43] <macaco> i no like it that version i use Ubuntu
[06:43] <Jordan_U> lgc_, I don't know anything about gtik2 or curve digitizers, sorry
[06:44] <leo_rockw> macaco, gutsy is ubuntu, tho. but not recommended anyway
[06:44] <lgc_> Jordan_U, perhaps you know something about the functioning of the panel?
[06:44] <bullgard4> What is the function of the file /etc/inputrc? "global inputrc for libreadline" does not make it clear to me.
[06:44] <astro76> File13, I think ubuntu ultimate also uses automatix or envy, so stay away from that
[06:44] <teKnofreak> macaco, go to OO's home site, get the deb package if available and install it with dpkg
[06:44] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[06:44] <tumblewee1> hmmmmmmm
[06:44] <leo_rockw> teKnofreak, i didn't know there was a deb available. thx for helping him
[06:44] <leo_rockw> hello raddy
[06:45] <mikubuntu> leo_rockw: ok, so now i'm having this other problem, can you help me with a wired connection?  automagic dchp din't work.
[06:45] <File13>  well im not saying im gonna use ubuntu ultimate, im just saying can i make my own ultimate distro or whatever, with what a save of my present state in ubuntu so if i messed up or reinstalled on another comp it would come with all the stuff preconfigured

[06:45] <Frogzoo> Tom-Miller: use pastebin
[06:45] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, use a pastebin
[06:45] <raddy> Is there any apt sources out there for latest fglrx for fiesty?
[06:45] <tumblewee1> ok
[06:45] <teKnofreak> !pastebin | Tom-Miller
[06:45] <ubotu> Tom-Miller: 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)

[06:52] <tumblewee1> hmmmm
[06:52] <tumblewee1> it's sdb
[06:52] <Bo1> leo_rockw:i dont understand what is saying!
[06:52] <WheelDweller> Bo1: Ah, you might be trying/avoiding the vesa driver.  I'm not an expert, but that's the kind of thing the faq/wiki will have.  There's a procedure for newer nvidia cards, I just don't know it. (Don't have one.)
[06:52] <File13> if i have a wireless usb card how can i tell weather its in spot wlan0 or wlan1
[06:52] <Jordan_U> lgc_, The package gnome-applets ( which is installed by default ) claims to have a stock applet
[06:52] <tumblewee1> I want GRUB installed on my internal hard drive anyways
[06:52] <warbler> tumbleweel; in a terminal
[06:52] <tumblewee1> ok, what command?
[06:52] <lgc_> Jordan_U, no, it should be similar, but the application is broken. There's no way to configure it.
[06:53] <Jordan_U> lgc_, And I see it in the accessories section
[06:53] <teKnofreak> tumblewee1, you can google to find out how to install grub

[06:53] <tumblewee1> well
[06:53] <tumblewee1> GRUB is installed, but I get error 21 when trying to boot
[06:54] <File13> how can i tell what my wireless usb card is, wlan0 or wlan1
[06:54] <Jordan_U> lgc_, That's Gnome for you... they probably don't consider it broken even if it is useless for most ( like screensaver preferences, or the lack thereof )
[06:54] <WheelDweller> Bo1: No, actually I can't...it's involved and I don't have one.  Go to the site; that'll get it for you.
[06:54] <lgc_> Jordan_U, I don't think I have them installed...
[06:54] <Bo1> some1 help me install my graphic card?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> lgc_, You don't see "Invest" as an option to add?
[06:54] <WheelDweller> Bo1: Can you not get graphics right now?
[06:54] <Bo1> step by step
[06:54] <dug> I am trying to get zaptel support in my kernel but I keep getting the error: http://pastebin.ca/673123
[06:54] <lgc_> Jordan_U, yes, I do.
[06:54] <cishpix> ubuntu can run if the spec of computer is Processor VIA C3 Ezra 798 MHz, RAM 256 Mb (Share 32 Mb for VGA).
[06:55] <warbler> tumbleweel: finding grub is a start to fixing it
[06:55] <lgc_> Jordan_U, it even installed itself in place of gtik2.
[06:55] <tumblewee1> ok, I've typed sudo grub
[06:55] <tumblewee1> I'm at the grub prompt right now, what next?
[06:55] <T`> hi.. anyone here has a core duo?
[06:55] <lgc_> Jordan_U, but my question was if 'gnome-applets' was something I should install...
[06:55] <T`> does your top show two CPUs?
[06:55] <warbler> tumbleweel: find /boot/grub/stage1
[06:55] <T`> 'top' that is
[06:56] <Mr-Snick> Thanks Astro76.. i've set the firewall up :)
[06:56] <tumblewee1> it's at hd1,1
[06:56] <Jordan_U> lgc_, Ubuntu-desktop depends on it, so you should have it installed by default
[06:56] <tumblewee1> strange, it was supposed to install to hdo0....
[06:56] <tumblewee1> hd0*
[06:56] <tumblewee1> or is that just the MBR?
[06:56] <warbler> tumbleweel: what device is hd1
[06:57] <mikubuntu> leo, i only have one ethernet wire, the one that's on this computer, i have the network connections window open on the opther machine i'm trying to configure and it asks for ip address, subnet mask, and gateway address, where do i find these?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> tumblewee1, (hd0) would be MBR, (hd0,0) would be a partition
[06:57] <tumblewee1> hd1 is my external drive, sdb
[06:57] <tumblewee1> hd0 is my internal drive, I'm guessing
[06:58] <lgc_> Jordan_U, it doesn't seem to be under Applications->Accesories or anywhere nearby.
[06:58] <mikubuntu> leo_rockw:, i only have one ethernet wire, the one that's on this computer, i have the network connections window open on the opther machine i'm trying to configure and it asks for ip address, subnet mask, and gateway address, where do i find these?
[06:58] <tumblewee1> oh dear
[06:58] <Boones> hd0 is the drive where you're system starts from
[06:58] <tumblewee1> I want this to be able to boot without my external drive plugged in, but GRUB is installed on my external drive

[06:59] <Tom-Miller> teKnofreak: ok seems I got it fixed, thanks for the help
[06:59] <v> Hello, I'd like to know how to change the colour of the cube / access the controls for compiz in Feisty-Fawn. Anyone know the command to access the compiz-settings manager?
[06:59] <Boones> logreeval let me guess.. your monitor is a small connector, but your graphic adapter only have those white big plugs?
[06:59] <teKnofreak> tumblewee1, you can install grub on your internal hard disk and ask it to boot, but if you want it to boot the linux in external hard disk then you have to plugin the ext hdd and configure grub accordingly
[06:59] <leo_> hello again
[06:59] <teKnofreak> Tom-Miller, welcome:)
[07:00] <tumblewee1> I don't use a RAID controller
[07:00] <Jordan_U> lgc_, It shouldn't be, it's they are just applets for the panel
[07:00] <Bo1> can some1 help me step by step how to install my PCI graphic card
[07:01] <tumblewee1> well, here's the deal, my BIOS doesn't support booting from USB, and I'm the only one who likes to use linux, so you have to be able to boot without the external drive plugged in
[07:01] <logreeval> Boones: i guess...the place that i thought was the monitor, doesnt have the receving end, it has the plugs
[07:01] <lgc_> IIRC, you told me it was under "Accesories".
[07:01] <tumblewee1> I don't care if I can't boot linux, because when I want to boot it, the drive will be plugged in
[07:01] <Boones> logreeval, thats the serial port
[07:01] <teKnofreak> tumblewee1, if the OS is in external hard disk you need it to boot into, grub can be locally but the OS is where ?
[07:01] <VICM> Hello -- I am looking for information on how to find the Compiz-Settinsg-Manager in ubuntu 7.04, my compiz is working fine, everything works, I just need to change the colour of the sky.
[07:02] <Jordan_U> lgc_, Accesories in the Add to Panel area
[07:02] <Boones> logreeval your monitor is analogue.. i assume that youre graphic card is dvi-i
[07:02] <Bo1> hello somebody help. me step by step to install my PCI graphic card
[07:02] <tumblewee1> well, I have windows on the internal drive and everyone but me uses that, so I guess I want GRUB on the internal drive
[07:02] <lgc_> Jordan_U, Oh, i see.
[07:02] <Boones> logreeval there should be a adapter in your graphic-card package
[07:03] <logreeval> Boones: so, can i plug this monitor in through and adapter?
[07:03] <logreeval> Boones: ....let me check..
[07:03] <lgc_> Jordan_U, you don't like Gnome, do you?
[07:03] <logreeval> Boones: what would it look like?
[07:03] <Jordan_U> lgc_, Overall I do, they just do some really stupid things sometimes
[07:04] <Bo1> somebody help. me step by step to install my PCI graphic card
[07:04] <tumblewee1> so I guess I just need instructions to install GRUB on my internal disk instead

[07:05] <lgc_> Jordan_U, what's the way to report them a bug or present our beefs?
[07:05] <arun> jordan_U: thanks
[07:05] <Boones> logreeval you should be able to connect your monitor cable on one side :)

[07:06] <warbler> bol: what's the card?
[07:06] <Bo1> am a windows user not linux am not good understand!ing ubuntu command
[07:07] <tumblewee1> hmmm
[07:07] <bullgard4> What does 'rc' stand for in /etc/inputrc?
[07:07] <brad016> How do you install the Leopard version of Avant Window Manager
[07:07] <tumblewee1> that doesn't help me much
[07:07] <astro76> logreeval, you don't have a video card?
[07:07] <lgc_> Flannel, I was trying to find out why gtik2 was wiped from the applications of the Gnome panel and some stupid replacement took its place.
[07:07] <Boones> logreeval, okay thats the mainboard
[07:07] <tumblewee1> I can't use the bios boot selection, because my BIOS doesn't support booting from USB
[07:07] <Boones> logreeval, which graphic card?
[07:07] <Flannel> brad016: runtime config
[07:07] <warbler> tumbleweel: which that
[07:07] <astro76> logreeval, that board does not have onboard video
[07:07] <logreeval> Boones: i dont have a graphics card O_o
[07:07] <lgc_> Flannel, but then I sort of remember you favor barebones installs...
[07:07] <Flannel> bullgard4: runtime config, even
[07:07] <tumblewee1> the ubuntuforums link can't help me much
[07:07] <sanzanric> is  it possible to upgrade from 32bit feisty to 64bit gusty
[07:07] <brad016> Flannel, what about it?
[07:07] <Flannel> lgc_: Some stupid replacement?
[07:08] <teKnofreak> tumblewee1, google can :P
[07:08] <dug> why I am I getting this error? http://pastebin.ca/673136
[07:08] <Boones> logreeval, that could explain, why you can't connect a monitor ^^
[07:08] <Flannel> brad016: sorry, miscomplete
[07:08] <Bo1> somebody anybody:how do i install step by step my Graphic card?
[07:08] <warbler> tumbleweel: tells you how to shift grub
[07:08] <tumblewee1> I've tried google a few times
[07:08] <logreeval> Boones: so i guess i have to buy a graphcis card, eh?
[07:08] <tumblewee1> maybe a better idea would be to get NTLDR to load ubuntu?
[07:08] <Jordan_U> Bo1, What Model?
[07:08] <Boones> logreeval :) sure
[07:08] <fulat2k> hi folks, anyone here knows how to get a usb wifi stick working (tagged to rausb1) using (k)networkmanager?  i'm currently hardcoding all entries in interfaces file.
[07:08] <Boones> logreeval for there board a AGP
[07:09] <logreeval> Boones: dang, well, tomorrow i will run over and pick one up.......is there anything special i should look for?
[07:09] <Fezzler> any ever use udev to auto mount usb device?
[07:09] <Bo1> jordan_u:e-GeForce FX5200, PCI
[07:09] <warbler> tumbleweel: let's try something - what is it not doing that is the problem
[07:09] <logreeval> Boones: AGP, what does that mean?
[07:09] <lgc_> Flannel, yes, something that you can't do nothing with, except do away with it. It's called "Invest".
[07:09] <brad016> Flannel, so how do I install it? I've tried everything but there is one broken link on their website
[07:09] <Jordan_U> Bo1, I assume Restricted Manager didn't work?
[07:09] <tumblewee1> true, but I've just now thought that I'll have problems starting up grub every time I start my computer without the hard drive plugged in.
[07:09] <Bo1> jordan_u:right
[07:10] <Boones> logreeval its the slot.. like PCI, your mainoard uses a AGP slot, newer boards are using PCI-Express
[07:10] <astro76> logreeval, the best video card you could get for your board would be like a nvidia 7600 gs, around $120 or so
[07:10] <teKnofreak> dug, the kernel you are trying to install needs a header which is not matching with what you have
[07:10] <Boones> logreeval but you already have RAM and a CPU?
[07:10] <logreeval> Boones and astro76 thanks :)
[07:10] <unique> this may sound stupid but in the kde interface where is my computer
[07:10] <logreeval> Boones: yes, i thought my board had integrated graphics, silly me ;)
[07:10] <leo_> astro76, a nvidia 7600 gs is 120??? omg! i need to get me one now! lol
[07:10] <teKnofreak> dug, check for the header version required for the kernel source you are trying to install
[07:11] <Boones> logreeval okay :) .. so try your graphics adapter and have fun ^^^
[07:11] <teKnofreak> unique, my computer as in / ?
[07:11] <dug> teKnofreak: I am not sure why my kernel is 2.6.20-16-generic and so are my headers
[07:11] <leo_rockw> astro76, i haven't been checking prices lately... last time i saw a card like that was like 250 haha
[07:11] <tumblewee1> so I'm either going to have to find a way to install GRUB to an NTFS partition, or I'm going to have to figure out a way to get NTLDR to load ubuntu
[07:11] <sanzanric> syslinux?
[07:11] <astro76> yeah everythings pci-e
[07:11] <astro76> now
[07:11] <logreeval> Boones: thanks for the help :) i cant wait to get this going
[07:11] <teKnofreak> dug, the error was in wacom-kernel-source not generic kernel
[07:11] <tumblewee1> seeing as windows is the os on my internal drive
[07:11] <Boones> logreeval you're welcome
[07:12] <Flannel> brad016: the leopard version?
[07:12] <logreeval> :)
[07:12] <logreeval> Boones: see ya later
[07:12] <leo_rockw> tumblewee1, i think i'm understanding your problem. one question: would grub on a floppy help there?
[07:12] <brad016> Flannel, yes
[07:12] <unique> to view my drives
[07:12] <teKnofreak> tumblewee1, grub on NTFS pasrtition ? install it on MBR
[07:12] <warbler> tumbleweel: if grub is on the plug in drive then ntldr should load when hd not plugged in
[07:12] <tumblewee1> hmmmm, I'm not sure, I don't really like booting from floppies, but I guess I could
[07:12] <brad016> Flannel, the one that is all Leopard-ish
[07:12] <Flannel> brad016: what is the leopard version?  I have no idea.
[07:12] <tumblewee1> my floppy drive kind of sucks
[07:13] <faileas> floppy drives suck ;p
[07:13] <brad016> Flannel, do you know what Avant windows manager is?
[07:13] <Boones> i do not even have a floppy drive
[07:13] <Boones> ^^
[07:13] <leo_rockw> tumblewee1, you can't boot from the usb one, right? and you can't leave grub on the mbr cuz it complains when you take the usb HD away... so i guess a floppy is a decent solution
[07:13] <tumblewee1> I can't boot from anything at the moment, I get error 21 when GRUB starts up
[07:13] <faileas> Boones: i have a USB one. kinda just in casish
[07:13] <leo_rockw> i know they suck, but it's a way to do it
[07:13] <brad016> Flannel, if so, they made one that looks andacts like the dock in the OS X Leopard beta
[07:13] <Jordan_U> Bo1, I don't follow GPU hardware, is this a relatively new card?
[07:14] <tumblewee1> that was the original problem, moving GRUB was just a sidethought
[07:14] <WheelDweller> Any DNS guru's?  I have bind9 that resolves my local names.  But nothing else; it can't lookup google.com, for example. "Recursion on" is in there, and it's been restarted.  What am I missing?
[07:14] <foo> Hm, when I try to start nfs-kernel-server... mountd fails to start.. but, I don't see anything in syslog/dmesg/messages about it failing ... any tips? Hm, I could strace it, I suppoe, last resort.
[07:14] <Boones> faileas , yeah a good USB-Stick is my friend ^^
[07:14] <Flannel> brad016: You'll have to check the AWN website.  We don't support it here (and obviously, none of us know the answer).  You might also try the forums
[07:14] <brad016> Flannel, thank\s
[07:14] <murtadashah> Hey guys: I get this annoying loud beep in UBUNTU occasionally (ie. when I hit backspace on terminal and it's at the front) how do I stop this/
[07:14] <WheelDweller> foo: Does IPTables play a role?
[07:14] <Bo1> jordan_u:is a new card i .buy from store
[07:15] <faileas> Boones: i don't use floppies except for bios and mbr repair. I think i got my workplace onto these awesome things called usb keys. FINALLY
[07:15] <tumblewee1> murtadashah: system -> preferences -> sound
[07:15] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Have you tried the nvidia-glx-new package?
[07:15] <tumblewee1> then click the system beep tab
[07:15] <NTTP> I have a really good question here concerning upgrades.
[07:15] <supamatt> mmm
[07:15] <WheelDweller> foo:  I'm running NFS here, too. It's pretty solid...
[07:15] <Bo1> jordan_u:nooo
[07:15] <foo> WheelDweller: I don't think so, how would I know ? What port is mountd on ?
[07:16] <foo> WheelDweller: I have too, for several years, on these same boxes, same setup ...
[07:16] <WheelDweller> foo: Do you have portmap installed?  :)
[07:16] <boola> i just acctidnetly remove my postgress install on /var/lib/postgres/7.4
[07:16] <boola> how can i redo this directory ?
[07:16] <foo> WheelDweller: yes, for years, I have.
[07:16] <WheelDweller> foo: (I had to ask....)
[07:16] <WheelDweller> foo: What's rpcinfo -p tell ya?
[07:16] <foo> WheelDweller: np... I am stumped.
[07:17] <lgc_> Flannel, Jordan_U ,how can I reconfigure my startup at the point where it looks for RAIDs? I remember it was the default option during the Feisty install, but it is the wrong one in my case and it keeps looking for it.
[07:17] <foo> WheelDweller: -su: rcpinfo: command not found
[07:17] <Jordan_U> Bo1, install nvidia-glx-new with synaptic / apt and restart X :) ( make sure your xorg.conf is set to "nvidia" as the driver
[07:17] <tumblewee1> ok, so I should do a fixmbr from the repair console on the windows disk and use a GRUB floppy to boot from my external drive?
[07:17] <Bo1> jordan_u:how i do that
[07:17] <NTTP> Does anyone here have experience with server upgrades?
[07:17] <WheelDweller> foo: It should show something, even as non-root. Program number, version, protocol, port.
[07:18] <Boones> faileas i just use it for files and a repair-system, cause i use linux and windows
[07:18] <warbler> tumbleweel: error 21 is a device not found error - so moving grub to the plug in hd might be the solution
[07:18] <Jordan_U> !boot | lgc_ Hope this helps
[07:18] <ubotu> lgc_ Hope this helps: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[07:18] <foo> NTTP: Just ask your question
[07:18] <WheelDweller> foo: this might be an important part of the problem.
[07:18] <foo> WheelDweller: Program not found...
[07:18] <leo_rockw> tumblewee1, that was my suggestion. it will work. idk if it is the best solution but it works
[07:18] <Gaidin> ok no luck
[07:18] <foo> WheelDweller: I'll use apt-file, see where it's at
[07:18] <NTTP> Right before I went to Ubuntu Live, I decided to upgrade my edgy server to feisty. Yet when I go to log in it still says 6.10 on the screen.
[07:18] <leo_rockw> warbler, tumblewee1 can't boot from a usb device
[07:18] <faileas> Boones: took me 2-3 years to talk the boss into switching over. and it was kinda like... "OOH, FLOPPY DRIVE!"
[07:18] <tumblewee1> warbler: it is on the external HD, it's just installed on the internal drive's MBR
[07:18] <NTTP> and lsb_release -a says I am using Debian.
[07:19] <faileas> erm, "OOH THIS IS BETTER THAN A FLOPPY DRIVE" even ;p
[07:19] <Boones> faileas lol
[07:19] <warbler> bugger
[07:19] <tumblewee1> yeah
[07:19] <Jordan_U> Bo1, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "nvidia" when asked for the driver to use ( Do you know how to install packages with synaptic ? )

[07:23] <Jordan_U> Bo1, That is normal, Have you nvidia-glx-new installed from synaptic?
[07:23] <Sayers> Hello. How do I add my user to group
[07:23] <Bo1> i think how i check] 
[07:23] <NTTP> any ideas with my upgrade issue?
[07:23] <Bo1> jordan_u:how i check
[07:23] <Irreducibilis> Possible newb question = Which is better, GRUB or LILO?
[07:23] <keelvarra> i tried blendler, and I really don't like it, I really like maya but I'm looking for a free solution
[07:23] <NTTP> GRUB
[07:23] <Jordan_U> Bo1, If you checked it and hit apply in synaptic then it is installed
[07:23] <Flannel> Irreducibilis: GRUB is more flexible (most of the time)
[07:24] <Irreducibilis> AH.
[07:24] <tumblewee1> my real problem is when I boot my computer, I get grub stage 1.5 loading, Error 21. Then it stalls, I can't load any OS, all of my drives are plugged in and menu.1st seems to be correct
[07:24] <Jordan_U> !better | Irreducibilis
[07:24] <ubotu> Irreducibilis: 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.
[07:24] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, wings 3d? k-3d? but i never tried those
[07:24] <tumblewee1> I'm really not sure what the problem is at all
[07:25] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, i never tried maya. i tried 3dsm and lightwave and imho blender + yafray is as good as those 2
[07:25] <Bo1> jordan_u:i install nvidia-glx-legacy and nvidia-glx-legacy-dev
[07:25] <NTTP> tumblewee1: boot a live cd, mont your drive under /mnt , chroot into it and then do "sudo update-grub". Maybe that might help.
[07:25] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, really good fluid animation too
[07:25] <Jordan_U> Bo1, You don't want either of those, remove them both and install nvidia-glx-new
[07:25] <tumblewee1> which drive, the external, or my internal?
[07:25] <tumblewee1> I'm on the live CD right now
[07:25] <warbler> tumbleweel: the problem seems that grub is looking for the ubuntu os but your bios won't boot from usb
[07:25] <NTTP> tumblewee1: Which erver one you are trying to boot from.
[07:26] <tumblewee1> ok
[07:26] <keelvarra> leo_rockw: I just can't get used to the blender interface, i have given it an honest try and find it to be incrediblly hard compared to maya or max3d
[07:26] <warbler> tumbleweel: a boot floppy for windows will let you get into windows
[07:26] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Unless by new you didn't mean new technology but rather a very old card that you just bought?
[07:27] <keelvarra> does anyone know of a good 3d modeller that isn't blender?
[07:27] <tumblewee1> yeah, but I need to be able to get into ubuntu, or maybe both without a floppy
[07:27] <NTTP> Anyone have any luck with the p4m890 video chipset yet?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> !grub | tumblewee1
[07:27] <ubotu> tumblewee1: 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
[07:27] <Bo1> jordan_u:am installing  both of nvidia-glx-new
[07:27] <warbler> tumbleweel: has ubuntu ever booted
[07:27] <NTTP> I got OpenChrome to work, no love on opengl though.
[07:27] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, that is true. but i was coming from lightwave, so it felt really easy for me.
[07:27] <Irreducibilis> Is there a way to change the boot sound?
[07:28] <Jordan_U> Bo1, You don't need -dev, it doesn't hurt, but you only need -dev packages when you are compiling something from source
[07:28] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, i have a friend that's into opensource like i am and you can't move him from 3dsm
[07:28] <tumblewee1> no, ubuntu has never booted
[07:28] <Jordan_U> Irreducibilis, There is a way to change *everything*
[07:28] <Irreducibilis> Oh good.
[07:28] <tumblewee1> as soon as I rebooted from the live cd, I got grub error 21
[07:28] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, you can check in winehq.org how maya runs on wine
[07:28] <Irreducibilis> I want to change my friend's ubuntu boot sound to an annoying mp3 that goes on for a few minutes
[07:28] <dug> teKnofreak: how to I tell what kernel version it is looking for (i upgraded to from generic to server and still not working)
[07:28] <tumblewee1> also
[07:29] <phpcurious> hi, how do you do find files containing a specified string in bash?
[07:29] <warbler> tumbleweel: you can't boot from an external drive on your comp - time to find another way to have ubuntu
[07:29] <tumblewee1> hmmm
[07:29] <Jordan_U> NTTP, Don't make "jokes: like that in this channel
[07:29] <tumblewee1> can I use a floppy bootdisk?
[07:29] <NTTP> SORRY!
[07:29] <keelvarra> leo_rockw: maya is suppossed to run fine, I just don't have that kind of money right now
[07:29] <Bo1> jordan_u:when is done installing ill im u.

[07:29] <tumblewee1> err, grub on a floppy
[07:29] <tumblewee1> because my internal drive is pretty small
[07:30] <Irreducibilis> That reminds me, can I boot ubuntu from a slave disk, completely separate from my master one with Windoze on it?
[07:30] <Jordan_U> tumblewee1, That is why I directed !grub at you :)
[07:30] <Irreducibilis> So I dont have to fuss with dual booting
[07:30] <tumblewee1> :P
[07:30] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, oh, i thought you already had it. well, i learned the basics of blender in one week. if you follow the wiki it isn't very hard (particularly since you already know a lot of 3d stuff coming from maya)
[07:30] <warbler> tumbleweel: your comp won't find the usb hd - that's not a option
[07:30] <MTecknology> My stylus doesn't work, hibernate doesn't work, and sleep doesn't work. My stylus isn't going to work... can anybody help me with the other part?
[07:30] <tumblewee1> hmmm
[07:31] <warbler> tumbleweel: can you put another hd in the comp?
[07:31] <Jordan_U> !doesn't work | MTecknology
[07:31] <ubotu> MTecknology: 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.
[07:31] <tumblewee1> noe, there isn't another slot
[07:31] <phpcurious> can i install ubuntu using a virtual cd drive software?
[07:31] <keelvarra> leo_rockw: well that gives me some hope, I guess I'll give it another shot, do you know of good resources for it?

[07:31] <teKnofreak> dug, check the package info
[07:31] <h> can anyone help me install flash player?
[07:31] <Jordan_U> phpcurious, No, you need to boot from the CD

[07:31] <warbler> !install|tumbleweel
[07:31] <ubotu> tumbleweel: please see above
[07:31] <NTTP> phpcurious: Wouldn't that mean that  you're mounting the ISO as something? If so wouldn't you need to be running an OS first?
[07:32] <Jordan_U> phpcurious, You can install Ubuntu from windows though if that is what you want to do
[07:32] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, this one is pretty good: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro
[07:32] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, What I mean is i get just a black screen when it's resuming
[07:32] <tumblewee1> I'm going to the PC shop tommorow, so maybe I can buy a 5.5" to 3.5" drive bay adaptor and buy a 40GB HD to install Ubuntu on
[07:32] <dug> teKnofreak: not sure how to check the pkg info
[07:32] <tumblewee1> seeing as I have a free 5.5" bay
[07:32] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, wiki.blender.org you can check that too
[07:33] <mike__> how do i remove an old kernel?
[07:33] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, try installing uswsusp and then run "sudo s2ram"
[07:33] <mike__> i have .15 and 16 installed
[07:33] <h> how does one get youtube to work/ install flashplayer????
[07:33] <mike__> only need .16
[07:33] <NTTP> why after an upgrade to feisty 7.04 would a system say that it was 6.10?
[07:33] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, That will use a different method to suspend
[07:33] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, unlike lightwave, there are a LOT of tutorials for blender (it being opensource and everything)
[07:33] <tumblewee1> mike_ : first go into a terminal
[07:33] <mike__> there
[07:33] <tumblewee1> ok
[07:33] <tumblewee1> sudo gedit
[07:33] <Flannel> mike__: just remove it in whatever package manager you prefer.
[07:33] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, I'll try that - thanks
[07:33] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, If you want to hybernate then "sudo s2disk"
[07:33] <warbler> tumbleweel: k
[07:33] <Flannel> tumblewee1: no. the kernel will come back.
[07:33] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, i was still on windoze when i switched to blender cuz it has a better community. a lot of tutorials and people to help you
[07:34] <tumblewee1> oh
[07:34] <Flannel> mike__: But, it's a good idea to keep two kernels at least.
[07:34] <tumblewee1> that's what I did
[07:34] <tumblewee1> :/
[07:34] <mike__> so i need both?
[07:34] <Flannel> mike__: One that is 'testing' and one that is known good.
[07:34] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, Will those commands execure the hubernation?
[07:34] <byonix> hi, i succesfully install windows xp in my vmware server,, and it took lots of my space, how do i resize (make larger) my ubuntu partition, i have installed gnome partition editor, but it seems doesn't work
[07:34] <mike__> grub is so ugly like that
[07:34] <Flannel> mike__: need no.
[07:34] <Irreducibilis> I wonder how the average person affords Maya, its $7000...
[07:34] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, just make sure you install yafray. blender is not as powerful without it
[07:34] <Flannel> tumblewee1: next time you upgrade your kernel, you'll have all your old ones
[07:34] <h> does anyone know how i can get professional support /dont mind paying????
[07:34] <tumblewee1> I know
[07:34] <leo_rockw> Irreducibilis, there are reduced prices for students
[07:34] <tumblewee1> but I leave them in case I need them later
[07:34] <NTTP> Irreducibilis: The average person gets it from other places.
[07:34] <tumblewee1> for testing
[07:34] <WheelDweller> FINALLY.  A power surge must have knocked me off.  Weird.
[07:34] <Flannel> tumblewee1: remove your old kernel packages, that'll remove them.
[07:34] <tumblewee1> oh, ok
[07:34] <tumblewee1> stupid me
[07:35] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Yes
[07:35] <unique> i just switched to kde now i cant see my second harddrive what should i do?
[07:35] <tumblewee1> I just removed them from the grub menu
[07:35] <tumblewee1> :P
[07:35] <byonix> hi, i succesfully install windows xp in my vmware server,, and it took lots of my space, how do i resize (make larger) my ubuntu partition, i have installed gnome partition editor, but it seems doesn't work
[07:35] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Sorry, I should have been more clear about that
[07:35] <NTTP> unique: is it mounted?
[07:35] <dug> teKnofreak: I dont even need the wacom stuff can I just remove it?
[07:35] <NTTP> byonix: How large did you make the virtual drive?
[07:35] <unique> if i mount it will it erase my data?
[07:35] <tumblewee1> alright
[07:35] <WheelDweller> DNS Meta-question: I have a bind9 box that serves internal name lookups fine...but it won't recurse to Google.com and others.  What am I missing?  I have "recursion on" in there...
[07:35] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, if that works how would I modify my system to use that?
[07:35] <dug> teKnofreak: nor do I need the cpad stuff
[07:36] <leo_rockw> unique, mounting is like loading
[07:36] <tumblewee1> thanks guys, I'll buy another internal HD tomorrow and install Ubuntu on that, you guys have been loads of help
[07:36] <Flannel> byonix: you can only change unmounted partitions, so you'll need to boot to a liveCD
[07:36] <NTTP> unique: you can mount it read only if you want to prevent that. What format is it in?
[07:36] <gustavo> i know that its ubuntu related channel, but can someone help me with amavis + spamassasin integration?
[07:36] <byonix> NTTP, just 5 GB, after that i only have 4 GB in ubuntu partition
[07:36] <unique> its ntfs
[07:36] <unique> 320 gig
[07:37] <unique> it worked in the gnome
[07:37] <tumblewee1> I'll just do fixmbr in the windows CD repair console and boot back into windows until I buy my new drive
[07:37] <NTTP> unique: NTFS support under Linux is buggy at best. I would not reccoment using an NTFS drive with Ubintu.
[07:37] <tumblewee1> later
[07:37] <h> do i exist?
[07:37] <byonix> Flannel, i have booted with Kubuntu live cd and use Qtparted, it didn't work either
[07:37] <Flannel> h: you do
[07:37] <lgc_> Jordan_U, thanks, but seemingly, it's not what I'm looking for. I just want to reconfigure the right file so RAIDs are not searched for.
[07:37] <leo_rockw> h, are you asking in a phylosofical level?
[07:37] <NTTP> h: yeah, you're right here on my keyboard.
[07:37] <unique> any idea to get it working to view files?

[07:38] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, thanks much
[07:38] <Flannel> h: I suggest you change it to something more unique
[07:38] <NTTP> h: original - yet not unique.
[07:38] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, that gave me a 500 error
[07:38] <sauvin> Unique, what are you trying to do?
[07:38] <h> ok
[07:39] <Bo1> jordan_u:am done
[07:39] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, np, read the comments, there are other proposed solutions, and some drawbacks to the one given
[07:39] <unique> access the drive
[07:39] <sauvin> Access what drive?
[07:39] <dug> I hate that I have to reinstall ubuntu because I am getting these errors ...  I was hoping ubuntu was better than fedora...
[07:39] <leo_rockw> unique, is it ntfs, ext2, ext3, fat?
[07:39] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, you mean the comments ppl said here?
[07:39] <unique> ntfs
[07:39] <Jordan_U> Bo1, OK, restart X and hopefully it will work
[07:39] <Gaidin> ok i am trying to share a folder on my external hard drive (sde1) to a windows machine but though it shows up the windows computer cannot access it (i want rw) any ideas on how to fix?
[07:39] <unique> im not running the os on it
[07:39] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Yes
[07:39] <NTTP> unique: do you just need files off it or are you planning on working with the drive under linux?
[07:39] <sauvin> unique, is this drive usb?
[07:39] <shasbot> what would be a simple way for me to fetch the contents of a folder on a windows machine from my ubuntu box?
[07:39] <unique> its secondary
[07:39] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, i suppose i shoulda paid more attention
[07:40] <unique> sata
[07:40] <sauvin> Oh... I don't know jack about sata :(
[07:40] <unique> just get files off it
[07:40] <Flannel> !scp | shasbot
[07:40] <sauvin> Does fdisk -l list it?
[07:40] <ubotu> shasbot: SCP is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/
[07:40] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, It's not a problem, just that the files might get replaced on a package update
[07:40] <unique> i can see the cd drives
[07:40] <byonix> !vmwareserver
[07:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vmwareserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:40] <shasbot> thanks Flannel, i'll check that out
[07:40] <sauvin> unique, does an fdisk -l see your drive?
[07:41] <unique> if i go to the gnome interface i can view the hd
[07:41] <sauvin> Oh?
[07:41] <sauvin> But you can't navigate into it?
[07:41] <Bo1> jordan_u:howi restart x
[07:41] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, aight - i'll try what you said when i go to sleep tonight and if it works I'll come back to finish a solution

[07:42] <leo_rockw> unique, if you can see your partition from gnome it means it is mounted. just use konqueror the way you use nautilus

[07:44] <NTTP> lildeb: What's up?
[07:44] <scratchii> Jordan_U ty :)
[07:44] <lildeb> i just bout a linksys wired router and it comes with a setup wizard disk
[07:44] <NTTP> lildeb: throw it away!
[07:44] <Flannel> byonix: you need to use gparted from a liveCD
[07:44] <Jordan_U> scratchii, np :)
[07:44] <keelvarra> leo_rockw: thanks for the help, about to finish the download
[07:44] <lildeb> haha that bad eh?
[07:45] <NTTP> lildeb: It's useless - even for xp
[07:45] <scratchii> Jordan_U its actually in the repos !!!!
[07:45] <lildeb> what kind do you recommend?
[07:45] <NTTP> lildeb:  what, as a router?
[07:45] <byonix> Flannel, i have use Qtparted from Kubuntu, but cannot resize
[07:45] <bluebanana> bluefish users: Tab makes the text shift Right. But how do you make the text shift left (Shift Tab is not it)?
[07:45] <lildeb> NTTP, yes
[07:45] <leo_rockw> keelvarra, no problem. i've been hanging around here lately so if you have any question just ask me. i'm not a blender guru but...
[07:45] <byonix> NTTP, yes, i make xp the guest
[07:46] <Flannel> byonix: You CANNOT resize partitions while they're in use.  You'll need to use a liveCD to resize.
[07:46] <Bo1> jordan_u:is still in the restricted driver
[07:46] <lildeb> haha well i dont think that is an option for me at the moment
[07:46] <Jordan_U> Bo1, It should be
[07:46] <scratchii> byonix: however i see a challenge here. format the partitions while they are in use
[07:46] <Blauhaut> if
[07:46] <NTTP> byonix: Well I don't have much experience using VMWare under Linux - I would guess there would be a way to make the virtual drive larger using some of the VMWare toold.
[07:46] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Is it working?
[07:46] <NTTP> tools
[07:46] <byonix> Flannel, but can't i resize with Qtparted in Kubuntu Live CD
[07:47] <Bo1> jordan_u:now is disable in the restricted rivers
[07:47] <scratchii> byonix: if you load the necessary progs in cache (ram) and unmount the partition, you may be able to partition it :P
[07:47] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Oh, that's strange, is it working though? Are you getting 3D acceleration?
[07:47] <corevette> digg's new layout, woot! http://digg.com/

[07:51] <Bo1> jordan_u:i just press enable in the restriced driver and is removeing nvidia-glx-new
[07:52] <NTTP> lildeb: Or you could leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes and let it reset itself.
[07:52] <warbler> bol: it will with basic drivers
[07:52] <lildeb> so that should do the trick?
[07:52] <Flannel> byonix: you have no freespace there
[07:52] <scratchii> qazibasit: perhaps your c code is broken
[07:52] <Jordan_U> Bo1, If it doesn't just run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" again ( you can get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1 ( F7 to go back to X )
[07:52] <NTTP> lildeb: unplug it before you go off to bed. that should do it.
[07:52] <lildeb> just completely unplug it. power and all?
[07:52] <NTTP> lildeb: Yup
[07:52] <scratchii> qazibasit: im not attempting to insult you. C ansi code is actually a pain in the *********************
[07:52] <Cortney> Hi could anybody tell me how i find out if im using 32 bit or 64bit.
[07:52] <byonix> i have 22 Gb of free space with gnome partition editor
[07:52] <lildeb> well i was hoping to get it all done and try it out haha
[07:52] <Jordan_U> Bo1, Let it, you probably don't need it after all, I think disabling the onboard video will get it to work
[07:53] <NTTP> Cortney: What color was your install CD?
[07:53] <Flannel> byonix: free space inside of a partition.  And, inside of which partition?
[07:53] <Cortney> i downloaded it.
[07:53] <qazibasit> no scratchii i have compiled some pre written codes that were compiled on  fedora
[07:53] <Flannel> Cortney: Which iso did you download?
[07:53] <Cortney> i forgot which one i downloaded.
[07:53] <qazibasit> but on ubuntu it is showing error
[07:53] <NTTP> Aha
[07:53] <byonix> Flannel, free space out side partitions
[07:53] <Cortney> is there a command i could type .
[07:53] <xtknight> is there a way to copy all files with the pattern "*.in", recursively within a dir?  essentially, i want to mirror a dir, but only the *.in files within it to another destination with the same tree structure.
[07:53] <scratchii> quazibasit: then check out the needed libs ! this is biig problem #1
[07:54] <NTTP> Cortney: try uname -a and see what that says.
[07:54] <Blauhaut> is there a tools for ubuntu to backup all system ?
[07:54] <rosscav> ls
[07:54] <NTTP> Blauhaut: bacula, arkeia, or rsync
[07:54] <unique> is ubuntu the same as kunubtu?
[07:54] <xtknight> !kubuntu | unique
[07:54] <ubotu> unique: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[07:54] <Cortney> Linux courtney 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux |
[07:54] <qazibasit> scratchii: is there a way i can reinstall my libs or the whole compiler
[07:54] <Blauhaut> NTTP; your suggestion ?
[07:54] <NTTP> unique: One uses GNOME for a desktop, the other KDE
[07:54] <DerangedDingo> unique: it's the same, but with different GUI's and libraries
[07:54] <Flannel> byonix: ah, I see it.  You can't expand partitions forward.  Onlybackwards.  HOWEVER, with the way this is setup, you can create a new partition in your freespace, copy the ubuntu partition to it, and then remove the old partition, and expand the new oneback to fill it's space.
[07:55] <scratchii> quazibasit: i never broke a compiler. however the compiler did fail many times, making me angry, destroying equipment, etc, ....
[07:55] <Flannel> byonix: gparted, I think, will automate that process  I guess qtparted doesnt.
[07:55] <scratchii> quazibasit: no, you didnt understand
[07:55] <unique> ok.... do i look in media for the other hd?
[07:55] <scratchii> quazibasit: libraries are also called dependencies
[07:55] <NTTP> Blauhaut: Bacula is a pain to set up but works even with windows. You could also try clonezilla.
[07:55] <byonix> Flannel, in human language please & be sequential please
[07:55] <qazibasit> ok yesterday i also compiled an ethernet monitoring tool and i got error in that too
[07:55] <scratchii> quazibasit: except if you dont have a ./configure , then you dont realise it unless you take a look at the code
[07:56] <DerangedDingo> byonix: whadya need help with?
[07:56] <qazibasit> ya i have a config file in that
[07:56] <Flannel> byonix: I was sequential.  Freespace == new ext3 partition, copy old contents to new partition, delete old partition, expand new partition to fill new freespace.
[07:56] <byonix> Flannel, how to copy my ubuntu partition to new one
[07:56] <scratchii> quazibasit: how do you exactly compile stuff ?
[07:56] <NTTP> Yay! I have my Atheros wireless in monitor mode now!
[07:56] <Flannel> byonix: Try gparted.  I believe it automates it
[07:56] <DerangedDingo> use GParted
[07:56] <qazibasit> i first configure the whole thing
[07:56] <thedash> curious, why can't I remove comments from entries in the 'quick-launch' panel ?
[07:56] <qazibasit> then make install
[07:57] <qazibasit> sometimes just make
[07:57] <scratchii> use mkext2fs. this is the good ol' way
[07:57] <NTTP> emerge -pDvun world is easier IMHO
[07:57] <byonix> Flannel, i have open my Gparted, then?
[07:57] <qazibasit> command not found
[07:57] <Flannel> byonix: see if you can expand your partition forward.
[07:58] <oranye1> kiki
[07:58] <qazibasit> wait
[07:58] <qazibasit> 1 min
[07:58] <qazibasit> then i will explain the whole thing
[07:58] <scratchii> quazibasit: ok so if ./configure fails, you need to install some extra stuff, then you have to run make, then you have to run make install
[07:58] <byonix> Flannel, how, no operation for ubuntu partition is available, i only can make new partition with the free space
[07:59] <scratchii> quazibasit: you need to check the configure log
[07:59] <NTTP> Anyone have suggestions for a p4m890 chipset?
[07:59] <scratchii> and the software documentation (for the thing you are compiling)
[08:00] <wolfsong> i'm not too familiar with grep...does it output to the screen by default?
[08:00] <qazibasit> ok am back
[08:00] <qazibasit> when i execute the ./configure file
[08:00] <qazibasit> it is saying
[08:00] <byonix> Flannel, if make new partition it will be placed in front of the ubuntu partitiom then when i restart i receive GRUB error 17 or something
[08:00] <qazibasit> aclocal missing
[08:01] <DFM> What is an app that i can use to pull the music off my wifes ipod so I can add more music and resync with out clearing what is on there?

[08:01] <qazibasit> automake missing
[08:01] <qazibasit> autoheader missing
[08:01] <Ashfire908> how do you install LTSP onto a server (no i'm not using edubuntu)
[08:01] <Gaidin> ok i am attempting to share a folder on a fat32 external hard drive sde1 but the windows machines can see it but not access it i want r-w access. what could the problem be and how would i fix it?
[08:01] <NTTP> Ashfire908: aptitude search ltsp
[08:02] <wolfsong> !grep
[08:02] <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
[08:02] <NTTP> Ashfire908: then see what you can install
[08:03] <thedash> why can't I remove the comments from the [default]  top panel ?
[08:03] <NTTP> Ashfire908: try "sudo apt-get install ltsp-server ltsp-manager" or "sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone"
[08:03] <DerangedDingo> Gaidin: the most user friendly way to go about fiddling with permissions might be running "sudo nautilus", finding the flash drive in /media, right clicking, selecting properties, and selecting the permissions tab
[08:03] <Ashfire908> what's the difference between using aptatude and apt
[08:03] <unique> ok what do i do after i install the ntfs 3g
[08:03] <ironmatar>  ok   i ran sudo ldconfig in terminal  then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop   then autocomplete dident want to work so i input manuelly the nvidia driver into sudo sh    and it says it couldent run the driver install  what did i miss?
[08:03] <unique> i still cant see the drive
[08:04] <qazibasit> man sometimes linux sux
[08:04] <qazibasit> but at times its the best
[08:04] <NTTP> Ashfire908: Aptitude has an indicator on the left side that shows if you have already installed it.
[08:04] <kimmey2k3> why doses it sux?
[08:04] <Gaidin> DerangedDingo: ok
[08:04] <DerangedDingo> Ashfire908: apt-get is... basic... aptitude is extremely powerful and user friendly, but... sometimes not as detailed as to what it's doing
[08:04] <NTTP> Ashfire908: if you want to use apt-get to search you need to use apt-cache.
[08:04] <qazibasit> like problems
[08:04] <qazibasit> right now my compiler is not working
[08:04] <Ashfire908> nttp i know
[08:05] <NTTP> Ashfire908: It's just a wrapper to make it easier.
[08:05] <DerangedDingo> Ashfire908: also, if you run sudo aptitude without any arguments, it brings up a nice command line interface
[08:05] <Gaidin> it just sets it back
[08:05] <qazibasit> since i am using ubuntu i cant compile any thing
[08:05] <Gaidin> it is in fat 32 and is an external hard drive
[08:05] <qazibasit> there is always error
[08:05] <qazibasit> sometimes the dependencies are missing
[08:05] <NTTP> DerangedDingo: that too!
[08:05] <Flannel> byonix: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/  Except, you're copying between the two partitions
[08:05] <qazibasit> sometimes compatibility difference
[08:05] <qazibasit> always a hell
[08:06] <qazibasit> my fedora was good in compiling
[08:06] <Flannel> byonix: It might be better to just use your new partition as home.  anyway
[08:06] <ramza3> can I go out on a limb and say that the gnome file manager/browser really sucks
[08:06] <DerangedDingo> no
[08:06] <DerangedDingo> just kidding
[08:06] <Flannel> byonix: in which case, follow those instructions.  (It will give you more space too)
[08:06] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: why does it suck?
[08:06] <kimmey2k3> sure its a way to get it working again ;)
[08:06] <Ashfire908> so basically use aptitude when i can?
[08:06] <NTTP> ramza3: get gentoo - not the os - the file manager
[08:06] <byonix> Flannel, i have just created the new partition, then how can i copy the current ubuntu partition to the new one?
[08:07] <damne_d> Rie
[08:07] <NTTP> LOL - apt-get install gentoo - i wish it were that simple!
[08:07] <decay> i bought a 24'' monitor this mornign and its sooooo bad
[08:07] <qazibasit> it sux coz one should have his computer online while using linux

[08:07] <ironmatar> qazibasit:  only with the difficulty in direct help for installing stuff so things work properly  but there seems to be a prevailing attuide around linux that even though they want to tromp on windows market share, everyone has time to somhow do everything manuelly

[08:08] <lwizardl> Hi
[08:08] <qazibasit> why the difference b/w diff distribution
[08:08] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: i think you have to create a different type of link.. a relative link or something, if the folder is changing directions though
[08:08] <WheelDweller> OK, I hope I'm back, now.
[08:08] <DerangedDingo> places i mean
[08:08] <qazibasit> why all distributions doesnt have the same libs and stuff
[08:08] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, open a large file (> 20MB) from the file browser.  Navigate to a directory with a bunch of large files, I dare you
[08:08] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, the hibernate option works now - but the suspend doesn't... I try to use it, it asks me fo my password. Then I get a message about it not working properly after it logs me right back in
[08:08] <NTTP> ironmatar: installing "stuff" under linux is easier than with windows
[08:09] <Ashfire908> what is ltsp under
[08:09] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Did s2disk from a terminal work?
[08:09] <NTTP> Ashfire908: try "sudo apt-get install ltsp-server ltsp-manager" or "sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone"
[08:09] <Ashfire908> btw i like aptitude a lot better than apt
[08:09] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, ya
[08:09] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: i've honestly never had those problems.. last night i dl'd a 120 mb high def trailer from the COD4 website and it opened fine from the file manager
[08:09] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Strange
[08:09] <Ashfire908> NTTP what is it under? what section
[08:09] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, the other one is the one that didn't work
[08:09] <qazibasit> hey tell me if a package needs other dependent packages then how to install it
[08:09] <lwizardl> I'm having problems with vlc, every time I move the window or press fast forward or rewind I lost the picture
[08:09] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, I only have 1.5Gb of ram, maybe that is just me
[08:09] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: i have 512 ram
[08:10] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Oh, sorry I meant s2ram
[08:10] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: PC2700.. 266mhz
[08:10] <NTTP> Ashfire908: if you're using the aptitude interface, I'm not sure. just run that command in a terminal.
[08:10] <ironmatar> NTTP:  then what did i do wrong since auto complete dosent want to work when i want to install the nvidia driver with sudo sh
[08:10] <Jordan_U> qazibasit, Just install the package, apt will deal with dependencies
[08:10] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, here I have a picture; http://www.flickr.com/photos/berlinbrown/750473492/

[08:10] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, It may still work
[08:10] <NTTP> ironmatar: I will assume that you are running a gui - Gnome or KDE?
[08:10] <qazibasit> ok and what if the dependent packages are not on my PC
[08:11] <qazibasit> will it find itself
[08:11] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, ?
[08:11] <eddie77> preety cool  ubuntu has like 30 percent of the market share of linux users
[08:11] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, That paste is index.php :)

[08:12] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, uswusp uses a whitelist, if your hardware is not whitelisted it may still work, but by default s2ram won't even try
[08:13] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, how do I override that?
[08:13] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, -f IIRC

[08:13] <qazibasit> how to install a .deb package manually
[08:13] <DerangedDingo> qazibasit: use the dpkg terminal tool
[08:13] <bulmer> qazibasit: use dpkg
[08:13] <Jordan_U> qazibasit, sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package
[08:14] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, I just tried with --force
[08:14] <Prez_> DerangedDingo: thanks, will look it up
[08:14] <MTecknology> Jordan_U, how do I make that permanent?
[08:14] <Jordan_U> qazibasit, Then "sudo apt-get install -f"
[08:14] <qazibasit> ok
[08:14] <Ashfire908> there some how-to for ltsp?
[08:14] <Prez_> DerangedDingo: uses compiz fusion?  that's what i'm running
[08:14] <NTTP> ironmatar: if your card is not supported yet then you're probably out of luck. I have a similar issue with my current vid card.
[08:14] <DerangedDingo> Prez_: Any composite window manager will do. xcompmgr if you wanna be ghetto, but yeah, compiz works great
[08:14] <ironmatar> NTTP:  no  and that starts with teh restricted drivers list

[08:15] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: the file manager in question is Nautilus... if you want a different one, there's Thunar, which is a lightweight, and Konquerer, KDE's file manager/web browser
[08:16] <ironmatar> i cant belive its going on two weeks iv been fighting with this
[08:16] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, which one are you using
[08:16] <NTTP> ironmatar: Cedega will require a configured vid card.
[08:16] <varg> need help..kinda confused, think i need to install my grafics drivers (gf 8600) but i don't know how
[08:16] <Jordan_U> MTecknology, Change the script /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-hibernate-linux look for s2ram and change it to s2ram --force

[08:16] <ramza3> NTTP: how would I update the file manager
[08:16] <ironmatar> i had the dang thing configured  n them my month old wd250/16mb cache went futsy
[08:16] <eagle1> Hi, I am issuing this command "dd if=image.ext2 of=/dev/sda2", image.ext2(120mb), /dev/sda2(800mb), after dd command "df -h" shows that /dev/sda2 is 120 mb and almost full. How do i avoid this?
[08:17] <NTTP> ramza3: what are you trying to update?
[08:17] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: Nautilus works for me... Konquerer is a bit clumsy, and thunar is good, but they come with extra libraries.
[08:17] <arooni> hey folks
[08:17] <ramza3> NTTP: the file manager
[08:17] <arooni> how do i get the libsdl package?
[08:17] <DerangedDingo> arooni: Google.com, my friend
[08:17] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, I have konq, but don't use it.
[08:17] <NTTP> ramza3: there are many file managers you can use. When you say you are trying to update the file manager - i don't understand what you are trying to do
[08:17] <ironmatar> NTTP:  i seem to be missing a get apt libs or something before gdm stop
[08:18] <DerangedDingo> NTTP: he's just having problems with Nautilus handling large files/directories
[08:18] <unique> ok when i go to the device manager i can see the drive it says blocked
[08:18] <NTTP> ironmatar: just a sec - let me check that howto
[08:18] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, hmm, may go with Konq, do you know how to switch to the default
[08:18] <Jordan_U> ramza3, You might like PCman file manager
[08:19] <NTTP> ironmatar: what step are you on?
[08:19] <ramza3> everytime I update my ubu system, I always can't stand nautilus
[08:19] <gRaCiOsO> i have a problem with a bluetooth on feisty i can see the device name from my movil and i can see my movil name from the device but i cant send files someone know why?
[08:20] <NTTP> DerangedDingo: Aha
[08:20] <lwizardl> nm i fixed the issue. if anyone is having problems with videos in vlc displaying the black screen check properites then output modules, then advance, then change it to x11 video output
[08:20] <lwizardl> worked for my machine
[08:20] <NTTP> DerangedDingo: I have a 1.36TB server here and Nautilus is fine with it.
[08:21] <blackgoth> what is a movil?
[08:21] <mjancaiti1> All right guys, interesting problem:
[08:21] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: I dunno... your whole desktop is controlled by konqueror... it may be harder than opening "Properties" for a folder and switching "Open With" to konq
[08:21] <NTTP> mjancaiti1: go on
[08:21] <gRaCiOsO> blackest,  just a cell phonr
[08:21] <gRaCiOsO> blackest,  just a cell phone
[08:21] <blackgoth> mobile.
[08:21] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, I bet I have some default nautilus setting that is causing me issues.  I will play with for a while more (but continue to make fun of it)
[08:21] <xoRock> i got error key everytimes update, trying to add the key but it ask for a key file (i have key number), what should i do?
[08:22] <gRaCiOsO> that is a mobile sorry
[08:22] <mjancaiti1> Right now, when I boot into my regular ubuntu install, it starts going to the login screen, stops, turns black, gives me a rotating cursor (the "thinking" one) and does absolutely nothing
[08:22] <thtoh> #ubuntu-sa
[08:22] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: possibly. have you skimmed through GConf-Editor?
[08:22] <ironmatar> NTTP:  before issuing the sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop  thenlogin  then sudo sh NVIDIA.xxxx.run then sudo/etc/init.d/gdm start  that brings the gui back
[08:22] <ramza3> DerangedDingo, nope
[08:22] <Jordan_U> NTTP, Did restricted Manager not work?
[08:23] <NTTP> mjancaiti1: I've necer seen the rotating curson on an install
[08:23] <mjancaiti1> It seems apparent it's a GDM issue, but when I try and reinstall, it gives me "invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed"
[08:23] <mjancaiti1> Man, you should see it, it's badass
[08:23] <NTTP> Jordan_U: ironmatar is having the issue
[08:23] <mjancaiti1> Oh hey, Jordan's still here?
[08:23] <ironmatar> NTTP:  i ran sudo ldconfig before doing that sequence  nut that sosent appear to ahve done the trick
[08:23] <blackgoth> workytime!
[08:23] <DerangedDingo> ramza3: Alt + F2 "gconf-editor". Gconf is GNOME's way of keeping a registry for every setting for every application that you run. it can get complicated depending on what you're doing. most of the time it's OK though
[08:24] <slap_me> god, how i missed ubuntu
[08:24] <slap_me> = X
[08:24] <mraustin1337> list
[08:24] <qazibasit> just like u missed fedora
[08:24] <qazibasit> :)
[08:24] <slap_me> never used fedora
[08:24] <slap_me> = X
[08:24] <Jordan_U> mjancaiti1, Yes, and considering that startx doesn't work either ( unless you are root, which you shouldn't be :) I don't think GDM is the problem
[08:24] <qazibasit> ok
[08:24] <ironmatar> NTTP:  serenityuk originaly helped me do this but i appear to have missed writing down one of the commands
[08:24] <mjancaiti1> To be fair, I haven't tried startx again, I'll do that now
[08:24] <NTTP> ironmatar:  I don't personally use nvidia anymore - Jordan - ca you grab this one?
[08:24] <qazibasit> hey what hapened to slackware and mandrake distributions
[08:25] <qazibasit> are they still alive
[08:25] <qazibasit> or they are no more
[08:25] <qazibasit> coz ppl were crazy for both of them in the past
[08:25] <ironmatar> thanks NTTP
[08:25] <mrigns> qazibasit, madrake changed it's name to mandriva
[08:25] <NTTP> ironmatar: I tried - remember - google is your friend
[08:26] <mjancaiti1> Hey, that's new! Now hitting ctrl-alt-f1 actually gives me a terminal!
[08:26] <qazibasit> ok
[08:26] <qazibasit> and what abt slackware
[08:26] <mjancaiti1> Jordan_U: damn, startx still fails :(
[08:26] <mjancaiti1> Permissions again
[08:26] <qazibasit> and why ppl switched to ubuntu
[08:26] <qazibasit> coz i saw a majority using ubuntu
[08:26] <mrigns> qazibasit, http://www.slackware.com/
[08:27] <qazibasit> like if 30 % of total computer users are using linux
[08:27] <mrigns> still doing well
[08:27] <mjancaiti1> 30% is a REALLY high number there, bucko
[08:27] <qazibasit> 80% of the 30% are using ubuntu
[08:27] <mrigns> lol linux is not even used by 2% of the pc users...
[08:28] <DerangedDingo> it's at 3% I think.
[08:28] <mjancaiti1> I'd be surprised if it's hit 1% yet
[08:28] <DerangedDingo> It's at 3%, but only 1% are dedicated, the other 2% dual boot
[08:28] <mjancaiti1> Yeah
[08:28] <mraustin1337> I've tried the nvidia chan, can anyone here answer a question about an nvidia card issue real quick?
[08:28] <DerangedDingo> I believe that's how it goes
[08:28] <qazibasit> :)
[08:28] <mjancaiti1> Whatcha got, mraustin?
[08:28] <mraustin1337> I have a computer with an nVidia GeForce 7900 GS and I've tried installing the nvidia-glx package AND running the kmodule compile and it keeps crashing saying there is no nVidia or the files have been created improperly.
[08:28] <mraustin1337> mjancaiti1, ty
[08:29] <qazibasit> well i am using a nividia Geforce  5200 and its working fine
[08:29] <mjancaiti1> I've got two nvidias and they're working fine :(
[08:29] <ironmatar> its going to get higher when all the people now running XP attempt to re install their os and have to deal with sp1 not being avaliable anymore and calling ms resuly in a stupid run around ending with  oh you ahve to buy a new os cd for that
[08:29] <slap_me> my nvidia is fine
[08:29] <slap_me> ...
[08:29] <mraustin1337> Well are there any known problems with the 7900GS's?!  =/
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> I honestly don't know, unfortunately; manually installed mine once, for which there's an article in the ubuntu wiki, and I used automatix for the other two
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> And I have a 7950GTKO running on it
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> So I would guess no problems
[08:30] <ironmatar> and idiocy called windows genuine advange validation tool
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> !nvidia

[08:30] <magi_> hello! does anybody know how to deal with google eath? All the chinese character turned into blocks in google earth!
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> That's the article you're looking for
[08:30] <mjancaiti1> But I'd give automatix a shot, despite all the interesting things it does sometimes
[08:30] <mraustin1337> mjancaiti1, *reading, thx*
[08:31] <mjancaiti1> Hope it helps
[08:31] <Sukoshi> The scim package on Feisty seems to not work with Java/Swing (and possibly other non-GTK toolkits?). Is there a fix for this?
[08:31] <wolfsong> i'm not too familiar with grep...does it output to the screen by default?
[08:31] <mjancaiti1> Outputs to terminal, wolf
[08:32] <unique> ok i have a hard drive i can see it in the device manager of kde it says blocked is there anyway i can unblock it... the drive is ntfs and it worked in gnome
[08:32] <qazibasit> hey how to scan a tcp v6 ip
[08:32] <qazibasit> is it possible
[08:32] <wolfsong> thanks mjancaitil
[08:32] <slap_me> i <3 gnome
[08:32] <qazibasit> me too
[08:32] <Prez_> avn seems to rock..
[08:33] <slap_me> i dont like kde
[08:33] <Prez_> :-)
[08:33] <slap_me> too bubbly for me
[08:33] <DerangedDingo> gnome is great, and all the apps are a billion times better than their KDE alternatives... but QT is a much better language
[08:33] <xork> xfce for teh win
[08:33] <DerangedDingo> than GTK
[08:33] <ironmatar> Jordan_U:   are u awake?
[08:33] <wolfsong> when i try "dmesg | grep ndiswrapper" i don't get anything
[08:33] <wolfsong> is that not right?
[08:34] <mjancaiti1> Jordan's back!
[08:34] <warbler> !grep

[08:34] <wolfsong> warbler: that didn't help
[08:34] <tom17bombadil_> i try to use jdbc
[08:35] <wolfsong> tried looking at that already
[08:35] <warbler> man grep
[08:35] <ironmatar> oh no peer has attacked jordan_U agian
[08:35] <tom17bombadil_> it is said, that i shall copy some driver to the jdk-dir
[08:35] <wolfsong> well my question about grep itself was answered really
[08:35] <wolfsong> now i'm just wondering why i don't get anything when i pipe to grep
[08:36] <tom17bombadil_> when i do 'find / -iname "*jdk*" ' i dont get some usefull dirs
[08:36] <arun> I can't paste any files. What do I do?
[08:36] <arun> As in I copy them, and I can't paste them anywhere (the right click option is greyed out)
[08:36] <wolfsong> it just takes me back to the prompt
[08:36] <tom17bombadil_> where does ubuntu install jdks?
[08:36] <byonix> if i have ran out free space in my ubuntu partition, then i create another partition in the same hardisk using the available free space i didn't use earlier, can i copy the old ubuntu partition to the new one, and can it boot properly?
[08:36] <tallia1> hellp
[08:36] <tallia1> what can I use as a ftp gui client in ubuntu - gnome?
[08:37] <mjancaiti1> !ftp
[08:37] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd

[08:37] <mjancaiti1> Right there, tallia
[08:37] <slap_me> hmm
[08:37] <slap_me> should i do beryl, or compiz..
[08:37] <tallia1> i thought nautilus
[08:37] <tallia1> would work, but when i type an address in GO TO...
[08:37] <byonix> and the most important thing, will i loose my datas, my upgraded kernel, my upgraded software, etc?
[08:37] <arun> tallia1: gftp isn't too good, install the fireftp extension for firefox, it's a good, full-featured ftp app
[08:38] <tallia1> it tells me: nautilus cannot display "ftp...." please select another viewer and try again
[08:38] <warbler> wolfsong: just had a look at man dmesg - that should tell you
[08:38] <slap_me> beryl or compiz...
[08:39] <arun> can anyone help me? why cant i paste any files?
[08:39] <wolfsong> warbler: tell me what exactly?
[08:39] <mjancaiti1> Have you checked the permissions where you're trying to paste them, arun?
[08:39] <decay> beryl
[08:39] <wolfsong> when i do dmesg by itself i get the expected
[08:39] <arun> mjancaiti1: yes, i can't paste them *anywhere*
[08:39] <arun> not just a particular folder
[08:39] <arun> i just cant paste
[08:39] <mjancaiti1> Oh
[08:39] <mjancaiti1> Neat!
[08:39] <wolfsong> when i enter "dmesg | grep ndiswrapper" i get nothing
[08:40] <MDistance> Hello, Im trying to set up a server, however I cant properly edit the vsftpd.conf file. And Im stumped.

[08:44] <Bakefy> Hello, I am wanting to download and install Ubuntu themes, I have 7.04.  Where do I go to get new themes, and what am i looking for?
[08:44] <DerangedDingo> Bakefy: gnome-look.org, or art.gnome.org
[08:45] <DerangedDingo> Bakefy: GTK2 themes for application and desktop appearance, Icon themes for icons, metacity themes for window borders, etc
[08:45] <Bakefy> DerangedDingo I am currently on that website.  Do I want GTK 1.x or 2.x?
[08:45] <Bakefy> oops!  thanks!
[08:45] <DerangedDingo> heh, no prob
[08:46] <warbler> wolfsong:!dmesg
[08:46] <warbler> !dmesg
[08:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:46] <wolfsong> warbler: you're missing the point i think
[08:46] <wolfsong> i know what dmesg does
[08:47] <wolfsong> and the command i'm using should search through dmesg to show instances of ndiswrapper but i'm not getting anything
[08:48] <mjancaiti1> Are you sure it had an issue?
[08:48] <mraustin1337> mjancaiti1, thank you.  he's kinda noob and I think it was mostly messed up due to him installing and uninstalling different versions of the kmodule so I advised him to reinstall the system (it was fresh) and linked him to the article.  Thanks.
[08:48] <wolfsong> anyone here setup a wireless adapter?
[08:48] <mjancaiti1> mraustin1337: no sweat. Fresh installs are always the best anyway, right?
[08:49] <mjancaiti1> wolf: yes
[08:49] <kraut> moinm
[08:49] <mraustin1337> mjancaiti1, my thought exactly.
[08:50] <wolfsong> i can see the driver with ndiswrapper -l" but i don't see the adapter with "iwconfig" after rebooting
[08:50] <slap_me> i like how ubuntu works right out of the gate for me
[08:50] <slap_me> wireless..check......windows mounting...check
[08:50] <mjancaiti1> !wifi | wolfsong
[08:50] <ubotu> wolfsong: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:50] <wolfsong> it worked fine before the reboot
[08:50] <mjancaiti1> Have you checked those?
[08:50] <warbler> wolfsong: try grep dmseg-options
[08:50] <warbler> been reading
[08:51] <wolfsong> it's not about grep
[08:51] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: thanks i have looked at some of them but i'll give another looksee
[08:51] <reflous> i just installed awn (while running beryl) & now I can't move windows around (the top bar is missing) any ideas?
[08:52] <warbler> wolfsong: your trying to get whether your system is recognising your wireless?
[08:52] <wolfsong> yes
[08:52] <decay> whats the difference between wget and synaptic?
[08:52] <Steger> any one have a fix for a PPC Airport EXTREME (bcm43xx)
[08:52] <mjancaiti1> wolfsong: it's taken me a damn long time, have faith; ndiswrapper and your windows driver should generally do the trick; wireless got a lot better in feisty
[08:53] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: well i at least "know it works"
[08:53] <Steger> I tried ndiswrapper, but I'm on PPC
[08:53] <warbler> wolfsong: simple question - is it in system hardware? - doesn't mean it is using it
[08:53] <nbkr> decay, wget is a kind of download manager, synaptic is used for paket management.
[08:53] <wolfsong> just need to figure out how to get it to continue working
[08:54] <wolfsong> warbler: what do you mean?
[08:54] <warbler> wolfsong: continue?- it has worked?
[08:54] <kimmey2k3> ] wget
[08:54] <wolfsong> yes it worked prior to rebooting
[08:54] <wolfsong> i can see it in lspci
[08:54] <Steger> ... No help for a PPC Airport Extreme?
[08:54] <wolfsong> i can see it with ndiswrapper -l
[08:55] <ironmatar> !lspci
[08:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lspci - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:55] <wolfsong> but network admin does not show wireless
[08:55] <wolfsong> neither does iwconfig
[08:55] <CerebroJD> Whats the best way to update from Feisty to Gutsy (the latest version of it, anyways)
[08:55] <mjancaiti1> wolf, have you installed network-manager?
[08:55] <warbler> wolfsong: then it needs a driver
[08:56] <wolfsong> warbler: no it doesn't the driver is found by ndiswrapper
[08:56] <mjancaiti1> CerebroJD: generally a network update
[08:56] <mjancaiti1> Wired, of course
[08:56] <nbkr> CerebroJD, Edit the /etc/apt/sources-list and run apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade.
[08:56] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: nope is there a doc on that?
[08:56] <wolfsong> found it
[08:56] <mjancaiti1> See what you get with that
[08:56] <CerebroJD> nbkr, got a link to how I'd need to edit it?
[08:58] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: will do thanks
[08:59] <warbler> wolfsong: If you had it then lost on reboot you need to add it to preferences-sessions
[09:00] <ironmatar> what should be the command string in terminal to input for nvidia blasted drivers setup  so i can run gdm stop manuel install nvidia driver and gdm start
[09:00] <nbkr> CerebroJD, Just have a look at the file, you just have to replace all feisty records with the appropriate gutsy repositories. Unfortunately I don't have a link - as long as gutsy isn't stable it doesn't find its way to the mirrors.
[09:00] <CerebroJD> ahh ok
[09:00] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: apparently it's installed but i'm a bit confused
[09:01] <ironmatar> and hvae my comp work
[09:01] <wolfsong> how do i know if i'm looking at Network Administration vs. Network Manager?
[09:01] <unique> whats a good ip blocker
[09:01] <Lo_Pan> iptables
[09:01] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: ctrl-alt-backspace to quit x; then run /etc/init.d/gdm stop; sh nvidia-driver-whatever; follow the instructions; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start should work

[09:03] <CerebroJD> nbkr, can I update from the cd as well?
[09:03] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: did you cd to the directory that has the nvidia driver in it?
[09:04] <ironmatar> i gdm stop..login  ls and the driver is right there
[09:04] <kaushal_> hi
[09:04] <kaushal_> i did find . -name "urltracker*" -exec ls {} \; | wc -l

[09:04] <ironmatar> sorry i keep forgetting nick fist
[09:04] <Lo_Pan> you want quotes around {} for a start
[09:04] <kaushal_> I want to know the disk space used by this files
[09:04] <Lo_Pan> ls -l
[09:05] <Lo_Pan> and drop the wc -l
[09:05] <nbkr> CerebroJD, yes you can if you use the alternate CD.
[09:05] <CerebroJD> ok
[09:05] <kaushal_> Lo_Pan is it for me
[09:05] <ironmatar>  mji attempted a direct copy by typing of the driver header  but that said cannot run
[09:05] <davina> kaushal_, use: du -sk *   will show u summary size in k

[09:06] <wolfsong> mjancaiti1: thanks for the hint... i was following the HowTo doc and thought i was using Admin instead of Mgr which has different steps....time to reboot and retest
[09:06] <BlackSliver> got a huge problem :(
[09:06] <mjancaiti1> wolfsong: good luck
[09:06] <ironmatar> always looking for the command i know im missing
[09:07] <BlackSliver> after booting my ubuntu feisty in normal mode (not safe graphics) i get only black screen
[09:07] <BlackSliver> nvidia drivers are installed
[09:07] <BlackSliver> card is 8800 GTS
[09:07] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: can you get into x at all?
[09:07] <mjancaiti1> Even using the vesa driver?
[09:07] <mjancaiti1> It sounds like a cheap out, but use automatix and get the nvidia driver installed that way if possible
[09:07] <mjancaiti1> It's never failed me
[09:07] <ironmatar> mjancaiti1:  ill try anything at this point
[09:08] <mjancaiti1> If you can get into X, dl it and try it
[09:08] <mjancaiti1> Restricted modules ftw
[09:08] <ironmatar> restricted modjules saus i dont need any reastricted divers
[09:09] <ironmatar> which i know is lying to me
[09:09] <mjancaiti1> Yeah
[09:09] <mjancaiti1> Like I said, try automatix
[09:09] <mjancaiti1> And don't tell anybody when you do ;)

[09:10] <Invert314> how do i tell what version of GTK i have running?
[09:10] <BlackSliver> got driver from nvidia.com
[09:12] <nbkr> Invert314, dpkg -l | grep -i gtk  - Would be on solution.
[09:12] <warbler> BlackSilver: I'd try the drivers from synaptic - they're there because they're stable

[09:14] <mjancaiti1> That's what YOU think

[09:15] <ari_stress> OOT: my home :) http://www.wikimapia.org/#y=-6579984&x=106887633&z=18&l=0&m=a&v=2
[09:15] <Brioche> I'm coming the french channel where everybody's sleeping...
[09:15] <PrimoTurbo> I have very poor performance from both
[09:16] <PrimoTurbo> my desktop feels slugish while 3d support works well
[09:16] <Brioche> I just want how to set the X server for KDE (I've just installed kubuntu-desktop on a feisty console system)
[09:16] <ari_stress> PrimoTurbo: maybe you don't have enough ram
[09:16] <mjancaiti1> Primo - I'm by no means one of the actual gurus here, so don't be put off by my answer
[09:17] <Agent_bob> i can't seem to figure this out.   i need some networking advice but i'm so network illiterate i don't even know how to ask a proper question about it...
[09:17] <azzmodan> For nvidia, does the restricted driver install thing correctly detect that it should get legacy drivers?
[09:17] <nbkr> Brioche, if you installed kubunut-desktop everything should be fine. You should be able to run KDE.
[09:17] <mjancaiti1> brioche: you'll likely want to run an /etc/init.d/gdm stop and /etc/init.d/kde start
[09:17] <PrimoTurbo> ari_stress: ...yeah I have only 1 GB of free ram
[09:17] <Agent_bob> Brioche sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg        <<< to configure the x windows system
[09:17] <PrimoTurbo> with ubuntu using only 150-200mb
[09:17] <PrimoTurbo> so yeah I need more RAM
[09:18] <PrimoTurbo> Thanks ari_stress
[09:18] <mjancaiti1> Bob, what's your question?
[09:18] <mjancaiti1> The one you can't form ;)
[09:18] <Agent_bob> can anyone tell me how to setup a routing table for a box that is behind a nat and is also serving a nat ?
[09:18] <mjancaiti1> lol, good luck with that
[09:19] <PrimoTurbo> Can someone suggest other possible drivers to use?
[09:19] <ironmatar> mjancaiti1:  i hope this works  because i really have things to do in a game
[09:19] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: a game?
[09:19] <ironmatar> eve-online
[09:19] <azzmodan> Agent_bob, the same as when it wouldn't be behind a nat
[09:20] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: lol, good luck. If all that's depending on it is a game, I wouldn't be too worried, but you seem to be!
[09:20] <mjancaiti1> ironmatar: either way, I'm just about out of here, way too tired. Very much good luck to you!
[09:20] <Agent_bob> azzmodan so it's just a server.  even though it has to have route add default gw 192.168.0.1    it's still just a server with ndsmasq   and all  ???
[09:20] <t4m1n0> is there an program to backup all my things ?
[09:21] <ironmatar> whent are a ceo and a few bill in ingame assets an corp members yea its important
[09:21] <nbkr> t4m1n0, one? hudrets!
[09:21] <nbkr> *hundrets
[09:21] <t4m1n0> nbkr: in case I have to gormat disk....how can I backup files ?
[09:22] <t4m1n0> gormat=format nbkr
[09:22] <azzmodan> Agent_bob, yeah there's no reason for the 2nd machine to care about the first
[09:22] <nbkr> Simply by coping to another location - a USB Disk for example. You can use cp, rsync for it. If you looking for diskimages google for dd. It depends on how you want your backup.
[09:23] <demonspork> where do I put a  .init script to make it run on system startup?
[09:23] <BlackSliver> using spkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg i can set the PCI-Port (default selected seems to be PCI:10:0:0, but mine is PCI:1:0:0). where can i set this up using nano? within /etc/X11/xorg.conf is nothing about that :(
[09:23] <raddy> Hello Everyone
[09:23] <BlackSliver> *dpgk...
[09:23] <Agent_bob> azzmodan well that's not very encurraging, seeing that's the basic idea i started with and it's not working.
[09:23] <raddy> Anybody tried cnr plugin?
[09:23] <nbkr> demonspork, /etc/init.d - afterwards run update-rc.d
[09:23] <raddy> Or anybody know its status for ubuntu?
[09:23] <demonspork> nbkr, thank you
[09:24] <azzmodan> You running different subnets on both? That might help with locating the problem
[09:24] <nbkr> demonspork, Have also a look at /etc/rc.local
[09:24] <demonspork> nbkr, rc.local runs on user login correct?
[09:24] <t4m1n0> nbkr: in case I have 60gbs of music, how can I backup this ? or make it ALOT SMALLER
[09:24] <azzmodan> I must say that it was suprisingly easy to get my ubuntu running correct by restoring select files from my old crashed debian /etc, now if only I could have restored my home folder
[09:25] <nbkr> demonspork, No rc.local is run at the end of multiuser boot. No when a user logs in.
[09:25] <happyface_0> damn linux and its crashing... so much that ctr+alt+bspace doesnt work
[09:25] <BlackSliver> anyone has got an answer for my question?
[09:25] <ling> 
[09:25] <Brioche> thx !!!!!!!
[09:25] <Brioche> I will come back !
[09:26] <nbkr> t4m1n0, You could tar.gz it. tar -czf backup.tar.gz /path/to/your/music - afterwards test the archive before deleting the music - just to make sure the archive is ok.
[09:26] <ling> cn
[09:26] <azzmodan> BlackSliver, under the device of your videocard: there should be sometething like  Busid           "PCI:1:0:0"
[09:26] <t4m1n0> BlackSliver: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:26] <t4m1n0> BlackSliver: I suggest to backup xorg..
[09:27] <damne_d> c_cuBy
[09:27] <BlackSliver> t4m1n0: using the dpkg-reconfigure backups it automatically
[09:27] <t4m1n0> BlackSliver: I never trust xorg :D
[09:27] <BlackSliver> azzmodan: there's nothing about that within xserver.cong
[09:27] <happyface_0> whoa, pressing my PC's power button shutdown ubuntu cleanly when nothing else responded
[09:27] <BlackSliver> t4m1n0: lol ^
[09:28] <BlackSliver> this anoying.. fs is not clean by reiserfs -.-
[09:29] <damne_d> c_cuBy
[09:30] <damne_d> hfhjrffrh
[09:30] <damne_d> gjnnj
[09:32] <azzmodan> BlackSliver, then just add the line
[09:32] <amun> How do I test to see if my Graphics card is HW acceled?
[09:32] <amun> something 'grep' ?
[09:33] <scipio> glxinfo | grep direct
[09:34] <elmargol> what is the name of this dock? http://bp2.blogger.com/_PqI9QqUU5zo/RtKrhJ7e_fI/AAAAAAAAAx8/Iu73_T8LF4g/s1600-h/compiz+terminal.jpg
[09:34] <scipio> avant window manager
[09:35] <damne_d> #bandung
[09:35] <BlackSliver> azzmodan: well.. using vesa everything works, using nvidia nothing works
[09:35] <BlackSliver> azzmodan: some errors and some warnings ^^
[09:35] <damne_d> fgt
[09:35] <CerebroJD> After I installed beryl (not fusion) on this laptop, the 'Shut Down
[09:35] <CerebroJD> and Restart options from the 'close session' dialog disappeared
[09:35] <Agent_bob> ok this box can ping other boxen on both cables,  why can't it ping google    http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39222
[09:36] <CerebroJD> I'd like to re-enable those, but dont know how
[09:36] <amun> HOw do I check for Hardware accel on my video card? - glxinfo?...
[09:36] <BrianG> ok i've somehow managed to mark my desktop up with red lines
[09:36] <BrianG> how do i remove the red scribbles?
[09:36] <amun> glx - something 'grep' dri?
[09:36] <tarntow> i am having trouble getting any sound when playing with rmvb files? cheers
[09:36] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: can it do   host google.com    ?
[09:36] <raddy> Anybody tried cnr plugin?
[09:37] <amun> tarntow, Do you have more than one audio capable app open at the same time?
[09:37] <Agent_bob> solid_liq nope   -root: host: command not found
[09:37] <demonspork> BrianG, Alt+Windows Key+K
[09:37] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, then try:    dig google.com
[09:37] <BrianG> thanks demonspork
[09:37] <Agent_bob> -root: dig: command not found
[09:37] <amun> tarntow, If you do not have Gstreamer installed, which I believe controls the whole duplex thing - soon as you load a flash page or have some other program that takes control of the soundcard - you cannot listen to anything in any other program.
[09:37] <tarntow> amun:  player avi file is fine...just rmvb file only getting pictures but no sound
[09:37] <BlackSliver> nvidia kernel version 1.0-7184, nvidia-x-module version 1.0-9631
[09:37] <BlackSliver> how to fix this? -.-
[09:37] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: uh,    nslookup google.com
[09:37] <scipio> CerebroJD, try this in terminal gnome-settings-daemon
[09:38] <disinterested> how would i start 3d desktop from cmd line?
[09:38] <amun> tarntow, Ok and your playing AVI's in RP?
[09:38] <Agent_bob> -root: nslookup: command not found
[09:38] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: wait, are you chatting from the box that can't ping google?
[09:38] <azzmodan> Did you mix nvidia and the legacy drivers BlackSliver ?
[09:38] <demonspork> Blacksilver, what card do you have?
[09:38] <tarntow> amun: i've installed realplayer but application doesnt seem to load up at all??
[09:38] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yes but through an ssh connection
[09:38] <BlackSliver> demonspork 8800 GTS
[09:38] <CerebroJD> scipio, says there is an xsettings manager running
[09:38] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: k,    cat /etc/resolv.conf
[09:38] <demonspork> ahhh
[09:39] <BlackSliver> azzmodan ive installed the "original" ones from nvidia.com
[09:39] <tarntow> amun: tested playing avi's on totem ...which is ok
[09:39] <azzmodan> Why?
[09:39] <demonspork> BlackSliver, you cannot use the Nvidia-glx provided in the repository
[09:39] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i copied that from the server connected to the world  so it should be right
[09:39] <BlackSliver> azzmodan and then restriced drivers from ubuntu
[09:39] <Tretete> does anyone tried to run xubuntu alternate install cd on pIII 800mhz/128mb ram?
[09:39] <demonspork> BlackSliver, it is broken for your card
[09:39] <amun> tarntow, Is Totem open at the same time as Real?
[09:39] <scipio> CerebroJD, ok let me search some more. it happened the same thing to me but i don't remember how i solved it
[09:39] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: route -n
[09:39] <BlackSliver> demonspork, well.. whats now?
[09:39] <demonspork> BlackSliver, you need to download the driver from the nvidia website
[09:39] <amun> Tarntow, Soundcards in linux, some.. suddenly become -half duplex, install G-streamer.
[09:40] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i posted that to start with
[09:40] <tarntow> amun: real cannot open at alll...n i just have one app open at a time
[09:40] <Agent_bob> ok this box can ping other boxen on both cables,  why can't it ping google    http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39222
[09:40] <Telep> Tretete: should run just fine
[09:40] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: didn't see it
[09:40] <Agent_bob> solid_liq      ^
[09:40] <amun> tarntow.. hrmm
[09:40] <BlackSliver> demonspork i did, nothing worked
[09:40] <Tretete> Telep: but it doesn't
[09:40] <BlackSliver> but ill try again =)
[09:40] <Telep> Tretete: I've installed Ubuntu alternate on a similar system
[09:40] <amun> tarntow, Go to options and see where Real is sending the audio - maybe it's sending it somewhere other than ALSA
[09:40] <demonspork> BlackSliver, did you make sure to remove nvdia-glx and such first?
[09:40] <BlackSliver> demonspork: how?
[09:40] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ping 192.168.0.1 work?
[09:40] <Tretete> Telep: lol my laptop's lcd just turned black
[09:41] <Tretete> Telep: nothing happens
[09:41] <demonspork> hold on
[09:41] <BlackSliver> k
[09:41] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yep
[09:41] <Telep> Tretete: the problem is probably not the low specs as such, maybe some incompatibility
[09:41] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i can ping on both cables.
[09:41] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: have you done any other connectivity tests?
[09:41] <Agent_bob> solid_liq just can't reach the world
[09:41] <Tretete> Telep: probably. you ran xubuntu alternate install cd or normal one?
[09:41] <Agent_bob> solid_liq as in ?
[09:41] <Telep> Tretete: the normal one
[09:42] <Agent_bob> solid_liq tried to irc out first.
[09:42] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: used a web browser for instanct
[09:42] <Tretete> Telep: I'm trying to run alternate install cd
[09:42] <solid_liq> hmm
[09:42] <Telep> Tretete: I mean I ran the Ubuntu alternate, not Xubuntu
[09:42] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yep
[09:42] <Tretete> Telep: oh
[09:42] <Agent_bob> solid_liq nothing outside the dmz
[09:42] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: k, what kind of router are you connecting to?
[09:42] <Agent_bob> nont
[09:42] <Agent_bob> none
[09:42] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: oh, you're on a dmz?
[09:42] <LT1Caprice57L> k, yet another ham-fisted novice question...how does one go about getting a DSDT
[09:42] <Tretete> Telep: I'm gonna restart it
[09:42] <scipio> CerebroJD, http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2387/ubuntu_restore_restart_shut_down_log_out_button
[09:42] <Agent_bob> solid_liq dialup
[09:43] <CerebroJD> thank you for the link :-)
[09:43] <damne_d> c_cuBy
[09:43] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: so what is 192.168.0.1 exactly?
[09:43] <demonspork> BlacSliver, I can't remember the command line for it, but can you get X working on any driver at the moment?
[09:43] <Agent_bob> solid_liq linux box
[09:43] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: and that's the one with the dialup connection?
[09:43] <BlackSliver> demonspork, safe mode + vesa drivers is the only way for me to get to gnome / x
[09:43] <Agent_bob> 192.168.0.1
[09:43] <azzmodan> You can use the nv driver instead of vesa, but that doesn't solve your problem
[09:43] <demonspork> BlackSliver, so you can get to Synaptic?
[09:43] <qazibasit_> man this glib-config sux
[09:43] <BlackSliver> demonspork so theres no way to destroy everything ^
[09:44] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, now are you ssh'd into that box for irc?  or one on the 192.168.1.0/24 side?
[09:44] <BlackSliver> demonspork, yes
[09:44] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yes
[09:44] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: which, the gateway?
[09:44] <BlackSliver> demonspork, i can get everywhere :)
[09:44] <Agent_bob> 192.168.0.1
[09:44] <BlackSliver> demonspork what now?
[09:44] <demonspork> BlackSliver, search for "nvidia" in synaptic
[09:44] <CerebroJD> Dammit, I shouldnt have updated beryl, I seem to have somehow disabled it
[09:44] <hammy> how the elhl do you install drivers in xubuntu
[09:45] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i'm ssh'd into  192.168.0.1  from the one we are working on,    192.168.0.1 has the dialup line.
[09:45] <demonspork> uncheck all the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new packages that might be selected
[09:45] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: sounds like the problem is on 192.168.0.1   have you done:    echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward      ?
[09:45] <BlackSliver> demonspork now?
[09:45] <demonspork> BlackSliver: uncheck all the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new packages that might be selected
[09:45] <Tretete> Telep: xubuntu won't work for me, I'm downloading DamnSmallLinux, aww
[09:45] <Agent_bob> solid_liq but i've been using it all day with no problems,   i dont think the problem is on 192.168.0.1
[09:45] <eddie> Hi
[09:46] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: but have you had any other computers use it to connect?
[09:46] <eddie> how do I use this forum?
[09:46] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yes
[09:46] <demonspork> BlackSliver, and do you still have a driver you downloaded from the Nvidia website?
[09:46] <BlackSliver> demonspork: the "setup"-file, yes
[09:46] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: just do this on 192.168.0.1 really quickly as a test:  cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[09:47] <BlackSliver> demonspork, how can i proof if everything is removed?
[09:47] <demonspork> BlackSliver, as long as nvidia-glx is unchecked, and you applied it, it should be fine
[09:47] <scipio> eddie, ask a question and if someone knows the annswer they will reply
[09:48] <eddie> I am having problem starting ubuntu on acer 2350
[09:48] <kevor> How can i install Shorewall-Perl on Ubuntu Dapper, seen a few guys that have it, but nowhere how to do it.
[09:48] <BlackSliver> demonspork, nvidia disappeared from dpkg xserver
[09:48] <eddie> it loads up then crashes as gnome starts
[09:48] <eddie> tried opensuse10.3 also with same thing
[09:48] <BlackSliver> demonspork: what now?
[09:48] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: what's the output of that, did you try it?
[09:49] <demonspork> BlackSliver, all you need now is the nvidia driver .run package, which version number do you have?
[09:49] <Agent_bob> solid_liq let me more clearly define what is here,  all addressing will be 192.168* so i'll just use the last two fields.     0.1 has a dialup modem and nic connected to a switch  the switch has two other boxes and this one making a total of 4 connected to it.   this box 0.3 also has another card 1.3 and crossover cable with 1.2 on the end of it.  this is the bad link in the chain...  and now i'll try the test.
[09:49] <eddie> read after google search that I should do xconfig before xstart on this machine
[09:49] <BlackSliver> demonspork mom
[09:49] <eddie> but unfortunately I don't know how to do that?
[09:49] <Agent_bob> 1
[09:49] <eddie> can anyone help?
[09:49] <Murlis> morgens! :)
[09:49] <demonspork> BlackSliver, ?
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> eddie: why don't you try being a bit more specific.
[09:50] <BlackSliver> demonspork: mom = just a moment, version is 9746
[09:50] <Murlis> I have strange problem - I need to mount freebsd hardrive under ubuntu
[09:50] <Agent_bob> solid_liq 1 on  0.1  and  1 on 0.3
[09:50] <scipio> eddie, did you try the livecd? was it working?
[09:50] <Murlis> the problem is that I do not know what partition drive has, what fs type.
[09:50] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: k, now on 0.3, run    iptables -L
[09:50] <Agent_bob> blank
[09:51] <Agent_bob> iptables is not even installed
[09:51] <BlackSliver> demonspork, full name NV-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9746-pkg2.run, system is x64
[09:51] <GNine> xserver must be reconfigured on crash
[09:51] <demonspork> BlackSliver, in a moment you need to kill X to install the driver, first, you will press Alt+Ctrl+F2, then you will login, and then type "etc/init.d/gdm stop"  then you will run the driver package
[09:51] <eddie> ta!  I tried running ubuntu fiesty and tribe from CD but the screen freezes after starting up or part way through starting up. The computer is an acer 2350.  I have also tried installing opensuse 10.3 on it and that installed ok up to the point of opening gnome or KDE (I installed it twice)
[09:51] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: and of course you can't apt-get install any tools on it since you can't get to the wan, right?
[09:51] <demonspork> BlackSliver, did you install the x64 version of Ubuntu?
[09:51] <eddie> travelmate
[09:52] <Agent_bob> you got it
[09:52] <demonspork> AMD64
[09:52] <IndyGunFreak> eddie: what sort of video device?
[09:52] <BlackSliver> demonspork yes
[09:52] <BlackSliver> demonspork fault?
[09:52] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, try this really quickly, just to see if it helps:    ifconfig eth0 down
[09:52] <eddie> it is notebook default I think they use intel motherboard
[09:52] <eddie> so probably 855
[09:52] <IndyGunFreak> eddie: well, that doesn't really matter.
[09:52] <IndyGunFreak> regardless.
[09:53] <BlackSliver> demonspork, hitting ...F2 does nothing, F3 etc. brings me to the console
[09:53] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: er, I meant eth1 down
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> eddie: whats the name of the iso file you downloaded?
[09:53] <Agent_bob> solid_liq and then ?  cause if i do that im disconnected from here
[09:53] <Agent_bob> solid_liq oh ok.
[09:53] <BlackSliver> demonspork F2 back to gnome
[09:53] <demonspork> BlackSliver, just hold on
[09:53] <eddie> I have Fiesty fawn which works on other PC's
[09:53] <BlackSliver> demonspork kk ^^
[09:53] <eddie> and recently got gutsy tribe
[09:53] <eddie> the opensuse10.3 is the beta 1 version
[09:53] <Agent_bob> solid_liq eth1 is down
[09:53] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: k, now try the ping
[09:53] <Agent_bob> no change
[09:53] <solid_liq> k
[09:54] <IndyGunFreak> eddie: i don't know.
[09:54] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: just a sec
[09:54] <demonspork> BLackSliver, so you are running an AMD processor?
[09:54] <eddie> I read online that you need to start xconfig before xstart as gfk has a problem or something like that.  How would I try that?
[09:54] <BlackSliver> demonspork I Core2Duo 6600
[09:54] <BlackSliver> demonspork I Core2Duo E6600
[09:54] <IndyGunFreak> no clued
[09:55] <IndyGunFreak> clue
[09:55] <demonspork> oh
[09:55] <BlackSliver> demonspork bad?
[09:55] <eddie> me either thanks for your time

[09:57] <Murlis> I have strange problem - I need to mount freebsd hardrive under ubuntu
[09:57] <Murlis> the problem is that I do not know what partition drive has, what fs type.
[09:57] <Thurin1> Is anyone here good with monitors, H/V Syncs and so forth?
[09:57] <BlackSliver> demonspork, maybe same language too ^^
[09:57] <demonspork> BlackSliver, newegg, my monitor is 22", what is yours
[09:57] <OniNeko> i understand this is probably the WORST and MOST INSULTING room to ask this in, but can someone either help me, or direct me to where i can get help with Visual Basic. ive hit a brick wall '-_-
[09:57] <BlackSliver> demonspork, im from austria
[09:57] <scipio> eddie, how to boot in recovery mode: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode?action=show&redirect=BootingIntoRecoveryMode
[09:57] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: hmm, you need to install more tools on that box to aid the diagnosis
[09:57] <BlackSliver> demonspork, 19''
[09:58] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: do you know how to get debs onto the 0.1 box?
[09:58] <scipio> eddie, after that you can edit the xorg.conf file with nano if you found a fix for it
[09:58] <BlackSliver> demonspork, its enough to play games ;)
[09:58] <eddie> sounds good
[09:58] <eddie> maybe I should just lower the graphics
[09:58] <michael_> 91.189.88.31 80
[09:58] <eddie> how do I do that?
[09:58] <demonspork> BlackSliver, I don't know what to do with the x64 version of Ubuntu, I just know you shouldn't be using the x86 driver
[09:58] <eddie> or should I select VESA or something?
[09:58] <demonspork> I am using the x86
[09:58] <BlackSliver> demonspork, its the x86_64 driver, for both
[09:58] <eddie> or just reduce the resolution options by deleting some?
[09:58] <BlackSliver> demonspork, what ubuntu are you running?
[09:59] <scipio> eddie, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:59] <eddie> ok
[09:59] <eddie> what after that?
[09:59] <Thurin1> When you go into your monitors options and it says something about FV/FH - with their respective numbers, does that represent the monitors set Vertical and Horizontal rates, or is that simply the rates at which it is currently functioning at presently?
[09:59] <demonspork> BlackSliver, x86 Feisty,   the x86_64 is not for both, it simply refers to a 64 bit x86 processor
[09:59] <scipio> eddie, try booting again i guess
[09:59] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: better question, is 0.1 an ubuntu box?
[09:59] <eddie> cheers I will give it a go
[10:00] <BlackSliver> demonspork, oh.. well.. so i should set up the x86 version?
[10:00] <BlackSliver> demonspork, or what do you think?
[10:00] <bAgent_bo> solid_liq all are ubuntu linux  but i have no idea what you might have said between  hold a sec   and that Q
[10:01] <BlackSliver> demonspork, brb, toilet :D
[10:01] <Agent_bob> solid_liq but just because it's ubuntu don't think it's default anything
[10:02] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, do you have the host utility on 0.1?
[10:02] <BlackSliver> demonspork, re
[10:02] <BlackSliver> demonspork, so.. what to do?
[10:02] <Agent_bob> solid_liq yes
[10:03] <BlackSliver> demonspork, do i have to clean up anything before installing x86 on that partition?
[10:03] <demonspork> BlackSliver, I got an idea, just go ahead and try to install the driver, dropping to a command prompt and killing X with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[10:03] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, then look to see if the package for it is in /var/cache/apt/archives
[10:03] <CorpseFeeder> Is installing Ubuntu onto a new intel imac as a dual boot with Mac OS X easy to do?
[10:03] <BlackSliver> demonspork, well, just a moment
[10:03] <facelifted> what command should i type to determine if the input is an ip or not?
[10:03] <demonspork> BlackSliver, because I can't see any other option for a driver
[10:03] <GNine> performance issue:  display freeze for a few seconds.  system is current on updates. any suggestions
[10:03] <GNine> also experiencing a huge lag here ...
[10:03] <lox> Hi guys. I installed libapache2-modxslt and restarted Apache, but my phpinfo() still doesn't mention XSLT. Could anyone help?
[10:03] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i can copy it by hand  yes  will installing it help figure this out ?
[10:04] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: you can copy it over to 0.3 with scp or rsync, then use dpkg to install it
[10:04] <qazibasit_> oh man i am ruining my time just to figure out what is glib-config
[10:04] <BlackSliver> demonspork, uhm.. hitting ctrl+alt+F? just pops up a black screen with a blinking "_"
[10:04] <Menth> holy cow i just managed to install cedega via cvs :o
[10:04] <qazibasit_> is there any way i can figure this thing out
[10:04] <demonspork> alt ctrl F2
[10:05] <Agent_bob> i can mount an nfs share too,   give me a sec.
[10:05] <BlackSliver> demonspork, brings me back to gnome
[10:05] <demonspork> hmm
[10:05] <demonspork> try F3
[10:05] <BlackSliver> demonspork, uhm.. hitting ctrl+alt+F? just pops up a black screen with a blinking "_", also for F3 ;)
[10:05] <lox> Nevermind, got it to work by installing php5-xsl
[10:06] <BlackSliver> demonspork, logging off should stop x and bring me back
[10:06] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: ctrl-alt-F7 brings you back to your x server, the others are regular consoles
[10:06] <Thurin1> When you go into your monitors options and it says something about FV/FH - with their respective numbers, does that represent the monitors set Vertical and Horizontal rates, or is that simply the rates at which it is currently functioning at presently?
[10:06] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: or do you want a login prompt from them?
[10:06] <demonspork> BlackSliver, it should be asking for a login on those screens that you were at
[10:06] <eddie> also can anybody tell me if the persistence feature in Fiesty can be fixed for booting from USB flash drive?
[10:06] <GNine> performance issue:  display freeze for a few seconds at x intervals.   system 7.04. updated. glx-new installed. any suggestions
[10:06] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: and don't have one
[10:06] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: can you get to a shell from within gnome?
[10:07] <BlackSliver> demonspork, im running in save mode, theres no login
[10:07] <demonspork> solid_liq, X cannot be running
[10:07] <BlackSliver> demonspork, yes i can run a shell
[10:07] <demonspork> BlackSliver, you need a shell with no X running
[10:07] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: then go to a shell, and as root, type:   /sbin/getty 38400 /dev/tty1
[10:07] <BlackSliver> demonspork, so.. im goint to just log off
[10:07] <kblin> hi
[10:08] <kblin> how do I found out which deb installed a particular file on my system?
[10:08] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: do what I said and you'll have what you need
[10:08] <BlackSliver> lol
[10:08] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: actually, add a & at the end
[10:08] <BlackSliver> solid_liq where?
[10:08] <gcostello> kblin: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[10:08] <BlackSliver> solid_liq what?
[10:09] <kblin> gcostello: thanks
[10:09] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: in a shell from within gnome, run:      /sbin/getty 38400 /dev/tty1       as root
[10:09] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: then when you hit ctrl-alt-F1 you should have a login console
[10:09] <BlackSliver> solid_liq got it
[10:09] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: again, I forgot the &
[10:10] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: in a shell from within gnome, run:      /sbin/getty 38400 /dev/tty1 &      as root
[10:10] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: there, that way
[10:10] <BlueXero> Where are the Kopete chat logs kept?
[10:11] <solid_liq> BlueXero: #kde is probably the best place to get that answer
[10:11] <BlackSliver> solid_liq mom ...
[10:12] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: hmm?
[10:12] <BlackSliver> solid_liq kk, worked ^^
[10:12] <mikkie> hello
[10:12] <BlackSliver> demonspork, so, what now?
[10:12] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: k, now from the console, to shut down your x server, yeah, he can take it from here :D
[10:13] <Agent_bob> solid_liq ?

[10:13] <Agent_bob> solid_liq what do you want me to do with host now ?
[10:13] <demonspork> run "sudo sh nvidia-installer.run"
[10:13] <demonspork> replace nvidia-installer with the filename
[10:13] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: now it's a better way to check, see if your dns is working
[10:13] <mikkie> your talking to me  demon ?
[10:13] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: so try     host google.com     now
[10:13] <demonspork> BlackSliver run "sudo sh nvidia-installer.run"
[10:14] <demonspork> BlackSliver replace nvidia-installer with the filename
[10:14] <BlackSliver> demonspork, kill x first?
[10:14] <Agent_bob> host google.com
[10:14] <Agent_bob> google.com A record not found, try again
[10:14] <demonspork> BlackSliver, yes
[10:14] <mikkie> does anyone know how to install Screenlets ?
[10:14] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, now

[10:15] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: what does iptables -L   show?
[10:15] <demonspork> BlackSliver, yes
[10:15] <Agent_bob> host 192.168.0.1
[10:15] <Agent_bob> 192.168.0.1 PTR record not found, try again
[10:15] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: cat /etc/resolv.conf    *please*
[10:15] <equinxp> i have a problem i want to install ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop with a ATI graphic card but the x-server dont start and i get in a command line, can i install it from there?
[10:15] <BlackSliver> demonspork, blank line, nothing happens Oo
[10:15] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i can't paste all that.
[10:15] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: pastbin it
[10:15] <Agent_bob> solid_liq i showed you resolv.conf
[10:15] <BlackSliver> demonspork: reboot the system? ^^
[10:16] <Offoffoff> Hello! Can anyone help me with my problem? After updating my Ubuntu box I found out that I cannot login into my system, system hangs, it is happened when login window appears.... Also when I enter into system and system hangs, and when I read log after that in save mode, I found out that some crap in logs (strange symbols, parts of packages description, some strange text).
[10:16] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: no you didn't, you showed me output of      route -n
[10:16] <BlackSliver> demonspork: ill be in the safe mode console without x running
[10:16] <Agent_bob> cat: /etc/resolc.conf: No such file or directory
[10:16] <demonspork> BlackSliver, when you reboot the system without recovery mode,so X crashes
[10:16] <madgoat> hi I installed php on my ubuntu server, but the cli version does not have mysql enabled... even though I have php5-mysql installed, and it works fine for apache2. How do I enable it in the php5-cli?
[10:16] <Agent_bob> nameserver 209.90.90.174
[10:16] <Agent_bob> nameserver 209.244.0.4
[10:16] <demonspork> BlackSliver, that would be perfect
[10:16] <Agent_bob> i'll find the V in a minute  :)
[10:16] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: :D
[10:16] <BlackSliver> demonspork: sec
[10:16] <solid_liq> heheh
[10:17] <BlackSliver> demonspork: reiserFS: file system is clean --> wow ^^
[10:17] <demonspork> BlackSliver, just tell it to boot normally, only it will fail to load X and you will have you what need
[10:17] <Agent_bob> solid_liq and ?    what now
[10:17] <BlackSliver> demonspork: mom, rebooting again :-\
[10:17] <demonspork> BlackSliver, in the future, I recommend Ext3
[10:18] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: try these instead:    nameserver 208.67.222.222
[10:18] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: and     nameserver 208.67.220.220
[10:18] <BlackSliver> demonspork: reiser is faster, sicurity is not the point ^^
[10:18] <Agent_bob> solid_liq why ?
[10:18] <BlackSliver> demonspork: not for me
[10:18] <BlackSliver> demonspork: not for this system
[10:18] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: those are the openDNS nameservers, they work for anyone for free, so they'll work no matter what if you can route to them
[10:18] <Agent_bob> solid_liq is there something about the address that the nat can't handle ?
[10:18] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: it's a test
[10:19] <Agent_bob> ok
[10:19] <demonspork> BlackSliver, eh, I like it because I can read and write to it from Windows
[10:19] <BlackSliver> demonspork: thats a point ^
[10:19] <BlackSliver> demonspork: well.. using normal mode brings me to a total black screen
[10:19] <BlackSliver> demonspork: rebooting after a while
[10:19] <demonspork> !!
[10:20] <Agent_bob> solid_liq ok
[10:20] <BlackSliver> demonspork: or the monitor just turned off, dunno
[10:20] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: host google.com
[10:20] <Agent_bob> google.com A record not found, try again
[10:20] <demonspork> BlackSliver, why is your computer making it so hard to do such a simple task
[10:20] <BlackSliver> demonspork: dunno ^^
[10:20] <solid_liq> BlackSliver: reiser filesystems have a tendancy to get corrupted
[10:20] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: so it still doesn't work...
[10:21] <BlackSliver> demonspork: i know.. all "important" files are stored on fat32 :D
[10:21] <demonspork> solid_liq, so does NTFS
[10:21] <solid_liq> demonspork: and fat32
[10:21] <snowglobe> how do i increase the size of my home partition?
[10:21] <Agent_bob> solid_liq that's right.
[10:21] <BlackSliver> lol.. ^^
[10:22] <BlackSliver> demonspork: whats bout my prob?
[10:22] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[10:22] <qazibasit_> need help
[10:22] <BlackSliver> demonspork: i can boot without any probs into safe mode
[10:22] <BlackSliver> demonspork: but not normal mode
[10:22] <qazibasit_> what is glib-config\
[10:22] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: and there's no firewall on 0.1 right?
[10:22] <amila> how u i update ubundu 5.04 to 7.04 .. currently i'm using 5.04 and have cd's for 7.04 how do i updat this version
[10:22] <demonspork> BlackSliver, do you get a command prompt?
[10:22] <Agent_bob> http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/39223
[10:22] <Agent_bob> solid_liq
[10:22] <BlackSliver> demonspork: normal mode: no
[10:22] <BlackSliver> demonspork: safe mode: yes
[10:22] <qazibasit_> just put the cd in and it will ask u to install or upgrade
[10:23] <qazibasit_> go for the upgrade
[10:23] <amila> nothing works
[10:23] <BlackSliver> lol
[10:23] <qazibasit_> coz i case of new install it will format ur partition
[10:23] <demonspork> BlackSliver, try to install it in Recovery mode, although I don't think it will work because the runlevel is too low and the installer doesn't like it
[10:23] <qazibasit_> then individually upgrade all ur packages and kernel
[10:23] <BlackSliver> demonspork: i can set the runlevel higher in sage mode ^^
[10:24] <demonspork> BlackSliver, do it
[10:24] <BlackSliver> demonspork: just a sec
[10:24] <amila> how do i do that
[10:24] <qazibasit_> well i dont know much abt it i make backup of my files and then reinstall
[10:24] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: what's your internet gateway IP?
[10:24] <BlackSliver> demonspork: telinit 3 -> runlevel 3
[10:24] <demonspork> that should do it
[10:25] <BlackSliver> demonspork: logging in..
[10:25] <BlackSliver> damnit
[10:25] <demonspork> BlackSliver, run the installer now
[10:25] <Agent_bob> solid_liq you mean the ip that the isp issues ?
[10:25] <demonspork> BlackSliver, what
[10:25] <BlackSliver> i get to gnome
[10:25] <demonspork> arg
[10:25] <qazibasit_> just copy ur home folder to any flash drive or portable drive and then del ur partitions and install ur linux again
[10:25] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: yeah, and the gateway
[10:25] <BlackSliver> demonspork: i can log off
[10:25] <qazibasit_> its the easiest way
[10:25] <BlackSliver> demonspork: will bring me back
[10:25] <demonspork> BlackSliver, but that won't help because even the login screen is X
[10:25] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: so, ifconfig for the IP on 0.1, and route -n on 0.1 too
[10:25] <TheZanke> is there a problem formatting a virtual partition in vmware player? i only get to 20% on fast NTFS and dont even get >0% on the non-fast format... Using an XPPro disc
[10:26] <Agent_bob> i don't understand "and the gateway" ???
[10:26] <BlackSliver> demonspork: will ... interessting...
[10:26] <decay> How do i auto-identify myself?
[10:26] <Agent_bob> dialup-4.226.237.32* on the ip
[10:26] <decay> everytime i log on irc
[10:26] <BlackSliver> demonspork: ctrl+alt+F2 worked
[10:26] <t4m1n0> what does GNU letters mean?
[10:26] <demonspork> Woot
[10:26] <qazibasit_> GNU is a copyright thing
[10:26] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: the gateway is where the traffic passes through, it's on the ISP side in this case
[10:26] <demonspork> BlackSliver, don't wait for something else to go wrong, just get that installer running and get X killed
[10:26] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: but for 0.3, 0.1 is acting as the gateway
[10:27] <BlackSliver> demonspork: pressed ctrl+alt+F2 and got to console
[10:27] <demonspork> BlackSliver, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" quickly
[10:27] <jetscreamer> you can pass xvrefresh and xhrefresh and xmodule to the install cd
[10:27] <Agent_bob> solid_liq ok and what do you want now?    you know i'm just a little uneasy about posting my ip for a thousand peopel
[10:28] <BlackSliver> demonspork: in setup
[10:28] <demonspork> BlackSliver, wooohoooo!!!
[10:28] <demonspork> wait
[10:28] <BlackSliver> demonspork: already driver installed
[10:28] <demonspork> yeah
[10:28] <BlackSliver> demonspork: same version
[10:28] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: yeah, so just post the gateway IP for now, easy way:        route -n | grep UG
[10:28] <BlackSliver> demonspork: is displayed
[10:28] <demonspork> !!!
[10:28] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: do that on 0.1
[10:28] <demonspork> Just rewrite it
[10:29] <demonspork> and have it redo your xorg.conf
[10:29] <BlackSliver> demonspork: "existing driver will be uninsalled" -> yes
[10:29] <demonspork> yes
[10:29] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: and the gateway IP isn't your IP
[10:29] <BlackSliver> demonspork: "no precompiled kernel"
[10:29] <demonspork> yes
[10:29] <Agent_bob> there is no UG
[10:29] <BlackSliver> demonspork: "get from nv.com?"
[10:29] <solid_liq> on the 0.1 box?
[10:29] <demonspork> yes
[10:29] <Agent_bob> correct
[10:29] <demonspork> (it isn't there)
[10:29] <BlackSliver> k
[10:29] <demonspork> now it compiles it for itself
[10:29] <Agent_bob> there is a UH
[10:30] <Agent_bob> not a UG
[10:30] <BlackSliver> building..
[10:30] <equinxp> how can i edit a file when i have trouble with the installation? im allready in the text menue and want du edit the xorg.conf
[10:30] <solid_liq> Agent_bob: ok, try UH, it's been forever since I was on dialup

[10:31] <demonspork> woot
[10:32] <BlackSliver> whats missing?
[10:32] <demonspork> reboot is called for I believe
[10:32] <BlackSliver> k
[10:32] <demonspork> sudo reboot

[10:43] <BlackSliver> what kind of formatting?
[10:44] <am2U> how do i make a ubuntu install disk from windows ?
[10:44] <alienseer23> in the section for debian/ubuntu, at the "update your bios" step, if I dowloaded the file to home dir, will I need to change the command at all?
[10:44] <am2U> if i use Nero ( make boot disk ) then it install Dr- DOS
[10:44] <demonspork> BlackSliver, jsut paste
[10:45] <alienseer23> am2u, just download the cd image?

[10:45] <am2U> i simply wish to make a Boot Disk from windows
[10:46] <am2U> will burning  a disk with ISOLINUX in under root directory help ?
[10:46] <alienseer23> am2u, it seems it would be easier to just download the cd image from ubuntu and burn than, then convert
[10:46] <coolwonder> HI, is vmware free of charge?
[10:46] <BlackSliver> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35354/
[10:46] <coolwonder> HI, is vmware free of charge?
[10:47] <BlackSliver> demonspork, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35354/
[10:47] <nbkr> coolwonder, The VMWare Server is free of charge.
[10:47] <intelikey> can anyone tell me how to make this box work as a gateway for one nic card but use the other nic card as the gateway   ?
[10:47] <coolwonder> nbkr, then the VMware server is the same function as virtual box?
[10:47] <nbkr> coolwonder, more or less
[10:48] <alienseer23> I have a question regarding the information here http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Tech/libsmbios if anyone could help, please
[10:48] <coolwonder> but i can only find vmware player on the website, where can i download the vmware server
[10:48] <intelikey> ok so that is confusing.   howto make eth0 the gateway for traffic on eth1  and localhost ?
[10:48] <slapfaceware> anyone from greece
[10:48] <teKnofreak> coolwonder, check the vmware web site and get the server from there
[10:48] <BlackSliver> demonspork, damn.. had to change the conf to get into -.-
[10:48] <nbkr> intelikey, are you trying to do a kind of network sharing?
[10:49] <coolwonder> ok, i'll have a try
[10:49] <intelikey> nbkr yes
[10:49] <BlackSliver> demonspork, driver "versa" is the only change, i think
[10:49] <intelikey> BlackSliver "vesa"
[10:49] <coolwonder> VMware Server 1.0.3, is it?
[10:50] <nbkr> intelikey, Routing is disabled on ubuntu by default. To activate it do: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[10:50] <demonspork> BlackSliver, did you tell The nvidia installer to remake the xorg.conf?
[10:50] <solid_liq> yeah
[10:50] <intelikey> nbkr already edited /etc/sysctl.conf
[10:50] <BlackSliver> demonspork, y, its because i needed to get into gnome to paste the file
[10:50] <intelikey> solid_liq welcome back
[10:50] <solid_liq> intelikey: heh
[10:51] <BlackSliver> demonspork, well.. clicked not to save.. but it got saved -.-
[10:51] <nbkr> intelikey, so what does cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward produce? And did you reconfigure the clients so that they use the new router?
[10:51] <CorpseFeeder> Is installing Ubuntu onto a new intel imac as a dual boot with Mac OS X easy to do?
[10:51] <demonspork> BlackSliver, so do you still have the file that was made by Nvidia X-config?
[10:52] <BlackSliver> demonspork, uhm.. mom
[10:52] <intelikey> nbkr exactly what it should.
[10:52] <intelikey> a one
[10:52] <nbkr> Are the routes added correctly? (route -n)
[10:52] <BlackSliver> demonspork, the appendix is a timestamp?
[10:53] <intelikey> nbkr i have no idea what they should be
[10:53] <kele> hi,all,are there some one use xubuntu,and dsn auto change every restart
[10:53] <alienseer23> nevermind (duh) solved
[10:53] <BlackSliver> 20070828104446 is the latest one
[10:53] <nbkr> intelikey, can you draw a diagramm of your network and post it somewhere?
[10:54] <demonspork> BlackSliver, do you have one that says at the beginning "nvidia-xconfig"
[10:54] <kele> hi,all,are there some one use xubuntu,and dns auto change every restart
[10:54] <demonspork> BlackSliver, the first line in the file
[10:54] <BlackSliver> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35355/
[10:54] <BlackSliver> this is the latest back up
[10:55] <demonspork> BlackSliver, you need to run "nvidia-xconfig" right now and see if it will right a good xorg.conf for you, because the installer somehow never made you a new xorg.conf
[10:55] <demonspork> write**
[10:56] <intelikey> nbkr t='192.168.'   0.1 has dialup modem  0.3 has also 1.3 with crossover cable and 1.2 on the other end of that.   between 0.1 and 0.3 is a switch with two other boxes on it.   i'm talking to you from 0.3  through 0.1 as a gateway.  but 1.2 can't get out...

[10:58] <BlackSliver> demonspork, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35354/
[10:59] <BlackSliver> demonspork, looks bugged :(
[10:59] <BlackSliver> demonspork, all the fonts are missing?!
[10:59] <nbkr> intelikey, so 0.1 is the gatway to the "outside" world. This maschine needs a route, so that it knows that 192.168.1.* is behind 192.168.0.3
[11:00] <nbkr> or you do a NAT on 0.3
[11:00] <demonspork> BlackSliver, have you tried to use that xorg.conf yet?
[11:00] <zezom> does any one know how to enable tv out for a nvidia geforce 2 card?
[11:00] <BlackSliver> demonspork, ano
[11:00] <BlackSliver> demonspork, no
[11:00] <BlackSliver> demonspork, just a moment
[11:00] <intelikey> nbkr sorry i'm network illiterate
[11:01] <Blauhaut> Ankaradan olan varm ?
[11:01] <nbkr> intelikey, run the command "route -n" on the 0.1 Maschine and paste the result to pastebin.
[11:01] <BlackSliver> demonspork, normal mode: same thing as before
[11:02] <BlackSliver> demonspork, lets see whats with safe mode
[11:02] <nbkr> intelikey, do the same on 0.3 maschine.

[11:39] <GuHHH> dthai: u mean kernel or what?
[11:40] <dthai> Ubuntu Server, I set up but now I fotgot it version
[11:40] <warbler> Bajo: to mnt a device it must be in fstab
[11:40] <dthai> I mean Ubuntu 6.06, or 6.10 ....
[11:40] <warbler> !fstab
[11:40] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[11:40] <intelikey> lsb_release
[11:40] <intelikey> lsb_release -a
[11:40] <dthai> thank you
[11:40] <Bajo> warbler, ok, I've tried with fstab, same problem
[11:41] <Bajo> no error messages, nothing
[11:41] <Bajo> mount seems to overload the system
[11:41] <Bajo> I can't even kill it
[11:41] <warbler> Bajo: fstab is a file. It will tell you how ubuntu recognises the partition. That is what you need to mnt it
[11:42] <Bajo> warbler, I've tried putting it in fstab
[11:43] <hashfreak> how to join german channel ?
[11:43] <warbler> Balo: did you install windows after ubuntu?
[11:43] <Black_Cat> hashfreak: try #ubuntu-de
[11:43] <Bajo> warbler, nope
[11:43] <hashfreak> zhx
[11:44] <warbler> Bajo: then there should already be an entry in fstab for windows - try mtab
[11:44] <drhumanist> hi ppl
[11:45] <drhumanist> can i ask a question?
[11:45] <nbkr> drhumanist, you already did - try another one :-)
[11:45] <Bajo> warbler, I actually don't use ubuntu, someone sent me here anyway... I use debian, but people in debian channel and in linux channel sent me here, I don't know exactly why
[11:45] <drhumanist> :) ok thanks
[11:45] <KalleDK> Does any have a clue of what this "acx: firmware image 'acx/1.2.1.34/tiacx111c16' was not provided." means
[11:45] <prabs> guys does compiling the kernel take an awful long time or is it just me?
[11:46] <nbkr> prabs, yes it does.
[11:46] <VSpike> last time I did it, yes
[11:46] <prabs> :(
[11:46] <ziroday> prabs: yes
[11:46] <warbler> Bajo: ubuntu is debian based - should work the same
[11:46] <drhumanist> well i installed ubuntu 7.04 onto my Toshiba A-100 599 notebook and enabled Nvidia drivers. Updated my Ubuntu too.
[11:46] <capiira> hmmm hi anyone know a good gtk based cd catalog software?
[11:46] <Thurin1> Is anyone here good with Monitors?
[11:46] <prabs> how long for a centrino machine with 513 mb ram? :(
[11:46] <BlackSliver> defrysk, are you still here?
[11:46] <Bajo> warbler, in addition, I'm using a self-compiled kernel
[11:46] <prabs> 512 even :P
[11:46] <nbkr> prabs, hours
[11:46] <drhumanist> but i cannot change my resolution to native 1200x800... it is stuck in 1024x768
[11:47] <prabs> bloody hell
[11:47] <drhumanist> what should i do?
[11:47] <capiira> Thurin1, how so ? in build them ? :)
[11:47] <warbler> Bajo: if the windows install was there when you installed debian then there will be a listing for it
[11:47] <Thurin1> When I put on the display of my monitor and it says something like FV 59hz and FH 58hz - does that represent my monitors capabilities, or the current use?
[11:47] <dthai> ADSL router <----> Ubuntu Server <----------> Switch : This is my network, I add 2 NIC cards to my Ubuntu server, but I can't config my local PC to connect to Internet
[11:47] <Bajo> warbler, there isn't
[11:47] <nbkr> prabs, took me 3 - 4 hours on my Athlon 2400+ 512 MB ram Notebook.
[11:48] <drhumanist> any comments? :)
[11:48] <Thurin1> Because I cannot seem to find the H/V refresh/sync for a TTX 1770...
[11:48] <nbkr> drhumanist, Have a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf - does it stat 1200x800 somewhere in there?
[11:48] <drhumanist> i did... no there is no 1200x800
[11:48] <prabs> nbkr: no way!! and after recompiling would i need to set everything up again or my setting would still remain intact?
[11:48] <warbler> Bajo: then your debian doesn't know it's there - freezes looking for it
[11:49] <capiira> Thurin1, what graphic card do you have?
[11:49] <dthai> ADSL router(192.168.1.1) <---->(192.168.1.252) Ubuntu Server (192.168.1.254)<----------> Switch : This is my network, I add 2 NIC cards to my Ubuntu server, but I can't config my local PC to connect to Internet. I can ping to 192.168.1.254 and 192.168.1.252, but can't ping to 192.168.1.1
[11:49] <Bajo> warbler, I see... what to do then?
[11:49] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: did you try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[11:49] <drhumanist> but there are millions of lines where i should insert "1200x800"
[11:49] <Thurin1> On this machine? a Radeon 7000
[11:49] <alli427> hi !
[11:49] <drhumanist> blackcat: no
[11:49] <drhumanist> blackcat: i am new to the terminal i am afraid :)
[11:49] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: in thet case i would recommend you to
[11:49] <warbler> Bajo: linux gives a unique identifier to each partition - you will need this to mnt your windows
[11:50] <nbkr> prabs, You don't have to reinstall the desktop and applications after recompiling the kernel. But you should keep the old kernel just in case the new one doesn't work.
[11:50] <larson9999> here's something that's been bothering me for a while.  i use the smaller, main menu, rather than the default big menu thing.  the issue is there is a consider lag the first time it's clicked.  but the same lag doesn't exist with the default menu thing.  anyone know what's the difference?
[11:50] <Thurin1> I know that the monitor can handle 85hz, and of course so can my card.. but I am not sure what the H/V is... so I was wondering if when you display the monitor options if the FV/FH is your monitors capability, or what it is currently doing..
[11:50] <Black_Cat> don't worry, it's not really a terminal interfaced operation, quite a user-friendly one
[11:50] <dthai> ADSL router(192.168.1.1) <---->(192.168.1.252) Ubuntu Server (192.168.1.254)<----------> Switch : This is my network, I add 2 NIC cards to my Ubuntu server, but I can't config my local PC to connect to Internet.

[11:50] <alli427> i have a question about automounting an external disk with ntfs3g
[11:50] <prabs> nbkr: phew :)
[11:50] <alli427> could someone help me please ?
[11:50] <Bajo> warbler, like /dev/hda5 ?
[11:50] <drhumanist> blackcat: What should i do exactly to run it? :)
[11:51] <capiira> Thurin1,  usually its what your using
[11:51] <warbler> Bajo: no like this UUID=013b13c8-9aa8-4c09-bf10-b3224ac17b86
[11:51] <nbkr> drhumanist, search for the screen section.
[11:51] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes and?..
[11:51] <Bajo> warbler, ok... I'm quite lost now :)
[11:51] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: type in terminal as follows: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:51] <dthai> how can I restart my network ?
[11:51] <Thurin1> hrmm ok
[11:51] <roachmmflhyr> can someone help me with this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35360/ i cant make vnc-4_1_1-unixsrc.tar.gz will g++ 4.1.1 for feisty fawn
[11:51] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: enter your password and answer the questions
[11:51] <Thurin1> This 60hz is killing my eyes, but I suppose I will deal with it until I call the company and get the info, instead of breaking the monitor :P
[11:51] <nbkr> drhumanist, there should be a subsection "Display"
[11:52] <warbler> Bajo: why a self compiled kernal?
[11:52] <drhumanist> blackcat: yes i am trying
[11:52] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i found "display"
[11:52] <capiira> if you know it can handle 85hz then set it up
[11:52] <nbkr> drhumanist, And in there there should be line "mode 1200x800" if not than the X server doesn't know about 1200x800
[11:52] <capiira> you should find the info in the manuals
[11:53] <Bajo> warbler, because I wanted it :) I've always sped up my pcs recompiling the kernel
[11:53] <capiira> usually there is a table showing what resolutions are supported
[11:53] <Thurin1> capiira, I know it can do 85.. yes, but I have no clue about the proper H/V syncs, if you put the wrong one - bye bye monitor.
[11:53] <BlueXero> cya
[11:54] <Thurin1> And I do not have the manual, nor do they on their site :| - 60 hz's for now, I will call them I suppose.
[11:54] <capiira> Thurin1, just let ati handle it
[11:54] <Thurin1> capiira, What do you mean?
[11:54] <Thurin1> No... you cant
[11:54] <capiira> hmmm
[11:54] <capiira> let me see
[11:54] <Thurin1> The ATI driver does not work with the Radeon 7000, you need to set it up manually.
[11:54] <warbler> Bajo: "self compiled kernal" is probably why the debian people sent you here - what's in it???
[11:54] <capiira> ahh ok
[11:55] <warbler> Bajo: can you pastebin your fstab file?
[11:55] <drhumanist> nbkr: i am trying xwindows now... will let you know about the result :)
[11:55] <JediMaster> hey guys, I'm having problems reconnecting a dropped nfs mount that was working fine for a month, but has just stopped, if I try and mount it (it's in the fstab, and also tried manually) then it just sits there, 20 min later the prompt still hasn't returned. I can't think of any changes on either end that would cause it
[11:56] <Bajo> warbler, mmmmh... maybe I've expressed myself badly...
[11:56] <Bajo> warbler ok
[11:56] <JediMaster> mount -v only says that it's assuming nfs due to the colon, no other output (still)
[11:56] <nbkr> drhumanist, what is xwindows?
[11:57] <JediMaster> actually, it's just said: mount to NFS server '123.123.123.123' failed: server is down.... RPC Error: 12 (Remote system error), system error: 110 (connection timed out).
[11:57] <Bajo> warbler, http://pastebin.com/d35cea6ba
[11:57] <warbler> k
[11:58] <drhumanist> nbkr: well xserver whatever :)
[11:58] <drhumanist> but it didn't work
[11:58] <JediMaster> I've restarted portmap and nfs-kernel-server on the remote machine. Any ideas?
[11:58] <nbkr> drhumanist, Xorg is the xserver!
[11:59] <drhumanist> yes yes i run the application..... but didn't work
[11:59] <drhumanist> i think i have to edit that .conf file manually?
[11:59] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: you gotta use ctrl-alt-backspace to apply settings i think
[12:00] <ruben_> Hello, I am using ssh with socket feature to do not reautentificate again if I have a socket,  but I can only to do max 10 connections, any idea?
[12:00] <nbkr> If you have a graphical interface - you are already running the xserver! The xserver is not a configuration system, but the main component for graphical interface on linux

[12:01] <Black_Cat> eXp`iRc|6: ^^^
[12:01] <drhumanist> blackcat: i did!
[12:01] <drhumanist> it did not work
[12:01] <warbler> Bajo: that UUID that I showed you earlier was from the mandriva partition on my box - you have no UUID's for anything .. hmmm
[12:01] <drhumanist> still no 1200x800
[12:01] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: are you sure your graphic card supports that resolution?
[12:02] <Black_Cat> perhaps you just need a proper videodriver
[12:02] <drhumanist> yes indeed: i have nvidia 7600 working perfectly under Vista :)
[12:02] <Black_Cat> and did you install nvidia drivers?
[12:02] <drhumanist> yes i di
[12:02] <drhumanist> d
[12:02] <JediMaster> drhumanist: isn't the resolution 1280 x 800?
[12:02] <drhumanist> jedi: nope
[12:03] <nbkr> intelikey, Still here?
[12:03] <taffy-nay_> can anybody at all answer my question?
[12:03] <JediMaster> odd, happened to setup ubuntu on a geforce card yesterday with a widescreen monitor on 1280x800 =)
[12:03] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: 1280x800 aint there too?
[12:03] <javier> el programa office org de base de datos no funciona bien en la confeccin de formularios. Me pueden ayudar
[12:03] <nbkr> Taffaz, What was your question.
[12:03] <drhumanist> nbkr: shall i alter the .conf file manually? if yes how can i enable root previleges to manage that?
[12:04] <Black_Cat> javier: espanol --> #ubuntu-es
[12:04] <drhumanist> blackcat: no, not even in the list
[12:04] <Taffaz> i never asked one
[12:04] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: what is the highest option then?
[12:04] <taffy-nay_> I found an article about an experimental way to load the linux kernal as a windows module but I can tfor the life of me remember the url or the name of the project..does anyone know about this
[12:04] <nbkr> drhumanist, sudo starts an application as root.
[12:05] <drhumanist> blackcat: 1024x768 which i am using now
[12:05] <nbkr> sudo your_favorite_console_texteditor /etc/X11/xorg.conf - will let you edit the file. Of course you have to replace the your_favorite_console_texteditor with something appropriate.
[12:05] <JediMaster> taffy-nay_ I've heard of it, but can't remember where from, sounds scary =)
[12:05] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok thanks
[12:05] <drhumanist> like gedit?
[12:05] <Bajo> warbler, is it a hopeless case?
[12:06] <Black_Cat> gedit ain't really a console texteditor, but it could be used too :)
[12:06] <nbkr> drhumanist, gedit isn't a console texteditor - it only runs if you have a GUI running.
[12:07] <drhumanist> i have gui
[12:07] <noccy> Hi, i'm trying to get my Ricoh SD/MMC card reader to work
[12:07] <warbler> Bajo: my guess is that you missed the part of the kernal that recognises different partitions??- maybe there is something to add?
[12:07] <noccy> kinda stuck on that tho :o
[12:07] <JediMaster> drhumanist: but if you break you're gui editing the config file you wont for long ;-)
[12:07] <drhumanist> btw i typed sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf and it returned a blank page!
[12:07] <defrysk> drhumanist, its X11 not x11
[12:07] <drhumanist> jedi: how funny :P
[12:07] <Bajo> warbler, ok, that's a possibility... How can I check that? I have menuconfig open right now
[12:08] <taffy-nay_> JediMaster: I can't even get a definitive answer from any kernel devs :S:S
[12:08] <Black_Cat> drhumanist: it's case-sensitive
[12:08] <warbler> Bajo: doing more reading - one minute
[12:08] <drhumanist> defrysk: ah OK OK thx
[12:08] <constrictor> does anyone know how to restart alsa?
[12:08] <Bajo> k
[12:08] <JediMaster> taffy-nay_: shame, would love to see it in action, let me know if you find it
[12:08] <defrysk> drhumanist, use <tab> button for autocompletion per folder
[12:08] <aogara> hy, I have a pb with ubuntu dapper, i misconfigured my user righst and cant acces back to the user / group management app

[12:09] <taffy-nay_> JediMaster: I have been looking for 3 days...not even Google is helping me...i'm starting to thin it may be a lost cause:-(
[12:09] <JediMaster> anyone any good with NFS issues here?
[12:09] <aogara> I could use cmd lines but i'm not very familiar with
[12:10] <chuy_max> aogara chmod maybe
[12:10] <aogara> ^^
[12:10] <CroX> How do I check what process occupies a port of mine again?
[12:10] <jpwoods_7> hi can someone help me with my network really quick
[12:10] <aogara> cmod yes and the man
[12:10] <drhumanist> i added 1200x800 lines into the .conf file....
[12:10] <drhumanist> now shall i restart or what?
[12:10] <jpwoods_7> it is NOT wireless yet its acting like it
 netstat -tap ?
[12:11] <jpwoods_7> the dhcp wont identify my ip address
[12:11] <CroX> chuy_max: I'll try that
[12:11] <JediMaster> drhumanist: save anything you have open and ctrl-alt-backspace
[12:11] <aogara> chmod* .. but it will take me more time to reconfigure this way than if i reuse the usr/grp admin  pannel :\
[12:11] <drhumanist> jedi: ok i am on it :)
[12:11] <jpwoods_7> and on top of that my router wont even recognize it being plugged in
[12:12] <jpwoods_7> ummm i can add that i just did a fresh install of ubuntu so it should work
[12:12] <jpwoods_7> but i dunno why its not working

[12:16] <jpwoods_7> no its NOT wireless
[12:16] <Bajo> warbler, thanks for your patience
[12:16] <jpwoods_7> can someone pls help?
 no, you just select the package and mark it for upgrade, at least it worked on debian, I try to use GUI apps the less I can
[12:17] <nbkr> jpwoods_7, What you mean with "recognise"? Normaly you get an ip from the dhcp.
[12:17] <jpwoods_7> yea
[12:17] <warbler> Bajo: see if this can steer you right - http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/tuning/kernelconfig.shtml
[12:17] <jpwoods_7> i do
[12:17] <jpwoods_7> but this time for some reason it just wont recognize the ip..
[12:17] <Bajo> warbler ok

[12:17] <jpwoods_7> it wont even recognize the ethernet
[12:17] <RioMerc> Hello again y'alls
[12:17] <chuy_max> jpwoods_7, and how it is not recognized?, did you use ifconfig?
[12:18] <drhumanist> hey ppl!  :)
[12:18] <jpwoods_7> im on a different computer atm
[12:18] <jpwoods_7> yes i did
[12:18] <drhumanist> anybody there... still cannot change the resolution....
[12:18] <RioMerc> I'm wondering if you can change the contents of a text file via the terminal + SUDO, since the file I'm trying to mod is Root Owned
[12:18] <kaushal_> hi
[12:18] <jpwoods_7> and i tried sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[12:18] <kaushal_> find . -name '*.tmp' -ctime +30 -print -exec rm {} \;
[12:18] <grndslm> jpwoods_7:  have you actually decoded 1080p VC-1 before??
[12:18] <kaushal_> I want to remove files only for the month of Apr
[12:18] <nbkr> jpwoods_7, So the problem is that the maschine sometimes doesn't get an address?
[12:19] <jpwoods_7> drhumanist enable your restricted manager
[12:19] <kaushal_> how can i do it
[12:19] <jpwoods_7> no grndslm
[12:19] <jpwoods_7> why
[12:19] <gvsa123> chuy_max: but the upgrades don't show up as automatic right? OOo 2.2.1 is out and i have it on XP, but the one ubuntu is still on 2.2
[12:19] <drhumanist> jpwoods: i did
[12:19] <grndslm> because no player will actually play this gosh dang movie!!
[12:19] <jpwoods_7> what is the exact format?
[12:19] <grndslm> and a quad core should definitely cut it.... hard drive spin is my limiting factor anyway...
[12:19] <nbkr> drhumanist, can you post you xorg.conf somewhere?

[12:20] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok..... shall i post from here?
[12:20] <raf256> what email client (GUI) is good for mass sending emails?
 ubuntu doesn't package the newest apps usually, you have to wait until some developer decides to use the newest package, this is sometimes convenient
[12:20] <jpwoods_7> thats for HD
[12:20] <jpwoods_7> do you have a HD monitor
[12:20] <raf256> that is, collect email addresses from Inbox; then we write an email, and that email get send to each person (separatelly) on the list
[12:20] <nbkr> drhumanist, can you upload it somewhere - please don't post it in the channel here.
[12:21] <gvsa123> chuy_max: how can it be convenient? for further testing?
 or maybe you have to wait til the next release, I'm relatively new to ubuntu, I come from debian
[12:21] <drhumanist> nbkr: well an email address would be of help :)
[12:21] <yeniklasorr> How can I set auto mount my partitions at startup ?
[12:21] <grndslm> jpwoods_7: ehh... well, it's HD, but the monitor doesn't have HDCP
[12:21] <chuy_max> gvsa123, stable packages
[12:21] <RioMerc> Repost: I'm wondering if you can change the contents of a text file via the terminal + SUDO, since the file I'm trying to mod is Root Owned

[12:21] <gvsa123> chuy_max: i see. topic shift: how different is debian from ubuntu?
[12:21] <grndslm> i figure the software wouldn't care about HDCP, but this is all too confusing
[12:21] <jpwoods_7> its the same
[12:21] <nbkr> drhumanist, Sending you an address in private message.
[12:21] <jpwoods_7> lawl
[12:22] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok thx
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> ubuntu = debian
[12:22] <nbkr> drhumanist, should have received it.
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> well debian based
[12:22] <chuy_max> gvsa123 basically the same, but ubuntu releases are more frequent than debian's, debian policy is to have a very stable system
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> i find it easier but this channel is for help
[12:22] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: yeah... i understand, but isn't there a distro that's called debian only... i know that ubuntu is debian based, but...
[12:22] <gvsa123> chuy_max: and it's DE?
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> i've not heard of the "Debian" distro
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:23] <grndslm> anyone actually been able to decode 1080p VC-1 codec on their computer??
[12:23] <chuy_max> gvsa123, I suppose you know ubuntu copies the unstable version of debian, and make it stable
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> thers LOTS of them
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> but yea
[12:23] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i did.... thanks... sending it now
[12:23] <chuy_max> gvsa123 DE?
[12:24] <gvsa123> chuy_max: desktop environment? that's the gnome, kde thing right?
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> grndslm your best bet (sad as it is) would be to get a different file type
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> =/
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> as for my ethernet not working....
 default at installation is gnome
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> can anyone help so i can start playing with ubuntu and get off of this crap vista
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> its lagging IRC
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> IRC!!!
[12:25] <nbkr> jpwoods_7, Searching for an IRC Client on Ubuntu? Try xchat
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> noooo
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> windows vista is laggin my irc client
[12:25] <RioMerc> Repost (Again): I'm wondering if you can change the contents of a text file via the terminal + SUDO, since the file I'm trying to mod is Root Owned
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> im looking for a solution to my internet not working on ubuntu
 yes you can
[12:26] <RioMerc> Oh really? How?
[12:26] <madgoat> just boot into the live cd
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> who
[12:26] <uakkeri> what is better in ubuntu than in kubuntu?
 it has been said a few minutes ago, sudo nano /path/to/file
[12:26] <RioMerc> Oh, thanks
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> uakkeri
[12:26] <kaushal_> find . -name "urltracker-urls_000_of_001*.0" -mtime "Apr" | wc -l

[12:26] <kaushal_> find: invalid argument `Apr' to `-mtime'
[12:26] <kaushal_> 0
[12:27] <drhumanist> nbkr: i sent the .conf file
 nothing, desktop environment is different, that's all
[12:27] <uakkeri> ok
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> they are just different programs just the same thing
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> uakkeri
[12:27] <uakkeri> i give it a try then
[12:27] <Jared-Moore> basically just personal preference
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> ubuntu > kubuntu
[12:27] <uakkeri> ok
[12:27] <gvsa123> uakkeri: i think ubuntu is more simplistic than kde
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> even in ubuntu you can try the k desktop
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> do sudo apt-get install kde
[12:27] <drhumanist> nbkr: you should've received it by now i guess
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> or whatever it is now
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> OMG
[12:28] <chuy_max> uakkeri if you already have ubuntu just install kubuntu packages
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> stop lagging irc ><
[12:28] <uakkeri> i want to start clean :)
[12:28] <nbkr> drhumanist, Yes I have - looks ok. Have you restarted the Xserver after modifing the file?
[12:28] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: won't that also install most of the KDE apps
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> no no
[12:28] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: then you'd have a messy menu... :)
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> actually
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> yess it would
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:28] <evoc> jpwoods_7: when you install kde does it cause problems with gnome installation?
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> but there is one where you can just install kde
[12:28] <drhumanist> nbkr: well no... shall i ?
[12:29] <jpwoods_7> or you can rip it of the programs (thats fun)
[12:29] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: plus having all kinds of apps that do the same thing...
[12:29] <jpwoods_7> evoc NO
[12:29] <uakkeri> i like ktorrent

[12:30] <jpwoods_7> Can someone help ME
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> so i can play with ubuntu ..
[12:30] <steel_lady> Hi! I am looking for a program, so I need your recommendation. I need something similar like programs on win that take a movie and convert it to pocket format and reduce to some 128MB of size
 no
[12:30] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: you don't have internet connection in ubuntu?
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> no
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> it will not connect
[12:30] <nbkr> drhumanist, Pressing ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X - but of course it will kill all X applications and you will have to login again. And to be honest - there might be the risk that the GUI doesn't restart correctly.
[12:30] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> im on windows vista atm and i hate it
[12:30] <chuy_max> jpwoods_7, is the NIC recognized?
[12:31] <jpwoods_7> O_O

[12:31] <Xman> jpwoods_7 i need to setup internet connection in ubuntu 7.04
[12:31] <drhumanist> without launching the application?
[12:31] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: funny. i installed and reinstalled ubuntu numbers of times, but never had a problem... hmmm...
[12:31] <jpwoods_7> same here
[12:32] <drhumanist> because the app is not running at the moment
[12:32] <Frogzoo> GNine: gl screensavers
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, In theory, yes - but as I mentiond - this will kill X and all GUI applications - it will kill also your IRC client.
[12:32] <Xman> jpwoods_7 i have adirect internet connection
[12:32] <jpwoods_7> Xman
[12:32] <Xman> yes
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, normaly X will restart after that
[12:32] <gvsa123> Xman: that seems to be jpwoods_7's problem... lol
[12:32] <drhumanist> nbkr: i did it a couple of min ago .. i can redo
[12:32] <Frogzoo> GNine: does glxgears work?
[12:32] <jpwoods_7> im not connected either thats why im here

[12:32] <jpwoods_7> somethings not right....
[12:32] <kurosaki> Hiya guys, I'm trying to install the flashplayer via the info ubotu provides, I've followed the page but even with multiverse active apt complains that 'is not available, but is referred to by another package.'
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, You did after changing xorg.conf file?
[12:33] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i did.... now i am redoing it..... be back in no time
[12:33] <GNine> nothing that requires OpenGL acceleration seems to be functioning
[12:33] <Xman> gvsa123 can u help plz?
[12:33] <benkong2> hello
[12:34] <benkong2> would somone look here and tell me how to fix my dpkg error? http://pastebin.ca/673355
[12:34] <jrib> kurosaki: pastebin the output of 'sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree'
[12:34] <drhumanist> nbkr: i re-did
[12:34] <Xman> gvsa123
[12:34] <drhumanist> nbkr: nothing has changed
[12:34] <gvsa123> Xman: i'm not sure i can... not really that knowledgeable. but if you post your problem, someone with the knowledge might read it and know the solution... :)
[12:34] <uakkeri> how about the 64-bit ubuntu? is it already working well?
[12:34] <nbkr> drhumanist, Have a look into the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:34] <Xman> gvsa123 where i have to post it
[12:34] <nbkr> drhumanist, Does it state some errors?
[12:34] <GNine> flashplayer must be manually installed
[12:34] <kurosaki> jrib, will do.
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> Yea well ive lost months worth of files and work
[12:35] <rafa1> 664424497
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> and i need my computer running now
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:35] <GNine> just like JRE must also be manually installed
[12:35] <jrib> uakkeri: works fine, but proprietary stuff like flash and java plugin will give you extra work.  It isn't worth it if you don't know why you need 64bit
[12:35] <gvsa123> Xman: here. never had problems in ubuntu i didn't cause myself... internet worked right away.
[12:35] <Xman> gvsa123 where i have to post it
[12:35] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i have it open
[12:35] <jrib> !please > steel_lady (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:36] <nbkr> drhumanist, Scroll down to then end. Does it say something about 1200x800 ?
[12:36] <uakkeri> uakkeri:you're right. thnx
[12:36] <steel_lady> !repeat
[12:36] <jpwoods_7> maybe i'll be back............
[12:36] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[12:36] <warbler> steel_lady: ffmpeg can do that but you will have to see their pages for help

[12:36] <kurosaki> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35364/
[12:36] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes... it says no valid modes for 1200x800.... removing
[12:36] <uakkeri> <- ass
[12:37] <uakkeri> bye
[12:37] <Frogzoo> if you need 64 bit, you don't need flash :)
[12:37] <GNine> messing with compiz messed up my openGL    :-/
[12:37] <drhumanist> nbkr: but it doesnt make any sense!!!
[12:37] <drhumanist> i am using dual boot vista with ZERO problems
[12:37] <jrib> kurosaki: are you using 64bit?
[12:38] <GNine> 1200x800 is some awkward resolution
[12:38] <kurosaki> jrib, Nope. Only thing I can think of is the fact I use my ISPs repo. Perhaps it's not quite up to date? Usually it's flawless though.
[12:38] <GNine> i use 1280x1024, very nice
[12:38] <nbkr> drhumanist, You don't speak german, do you? I found a solution in german linux board.
[12:38] <jrib> kurosaki: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:38] <zezom> does any one use tv out on there ubuntu system? I have a nvidia card
[12:38] <steel_lady> warbler, VLC is supposed to do that also, I tried and resulting files were unusable. I tried all possible combinations
[12:38] <kurosaki> jrib, Will do.
[12:38] <Bo1> awwwwwwww come on guys
[12:39] <drhumanist> nbkr: i am sorry - only english :(

[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, I will translate it for you.
[12:39] <jrib> zezom: I do, I just run 'gksudo nvidia-settings' and set it up with the gui there
[12:39] <drhumanist> nbkr: thanks
[12:39] <jrib> !please > Bo1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:39] <boontoo> I was wondering how i can view the Windows Network of my ethernet through ubuntu can anyone point me to a forum admittedly i haven't really tried google i decided to go strait to the horses mouth so to say
[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, one more question. Your xorg.conf states 1024x768 - So you have a screen in 16:9 format?
[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, or is it 4:3 like normal?
[12:40] <zezom> jrib, thanks:) I'll let you know how it goes
[12:40] <GNine> nvidia-settings messed up my set up
[12:40] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200, Step by step?
[12:40] <drhumanist> nbkr:yes 16:9 widescreen laptop
[12:40] <gvsa123> boontoo: try samba
[12:40] <boontoo> eww
[12:40] <boontoo> =(
[12:40] <jrib> zezom: there are some more manual instructions on the wiki too if you want:
[12:40] <jrib> !tvout > zezom (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:40] <warbler> steel_lady: I don't do those things but know from the ffmpeg mailing list that others do so using ffmpeg... all that I can do for now...
[12:40] <gvsa123> boontoo: :)
[12:41] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:41] <kurosaki> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35365/
[12:41] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:41] <steel_lady> warbler, which mailing list?
[12:41] <EvaLuaTe> in /etc/security/limits.conf, what are 'soft' and 'hard' exactly, i can't understand what they actually do ...
[12:41] <boontoo> gvsa123: im on a shared network, they don't have samba or anything i just want something similar to a My Network Places if your familiar with the primitives of windows
[12:41] <jrib> kurosaki: you don't have feisty multiverse.  You only have feisty-backports multiverse
[12:41] <warbler> steel_lady: ffmpeg - will get url
[12:42] <kurosaki> jrib, Aha. I wondered about that. Thanks jrib.
[12:42] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: soft limits can be bumped up by the user
[12:42] <GNine> ffmpeg works well thru GXine
[12:42] <Bajo> warbler, I found that my partitions are in the GNOME FileSystem folder... when I double click them, it says hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000
[12:42] <gvsa123> boontoo: i may be wrong, but it works for me. i am able to view the windows network. you only configure samba on the linux end, but the windows side is good already
[12:42] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:42] <drhumanist> nbkr: i guess i am NOT the only one with this problem :)?
[12:42] <EvaLuaTe> Frogzoo, so if i set a hard limit will that be enough ?
[12:43] <nbkr> drhumanist, no you aren't. I just searched the web for an english howto. Which would be much simpler than translating the german one.
[12:43] <gvsa123> boontoo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[12:43] <GNine> normally dhcp should work for networking , add samba for intranet with windows computers
[12:43] <boontoo> gvsa123: ooh thanks haha =D
[12:43] <warbler> steel_lady: there is even #ffmpeg
[12:44] <steel_lady> ok, thanx warbler
[12:44] <drhumanist> nbkr: thanks.... i can get Babelfish to translate your German text..... maybe i can understan
[12:44] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: should do, I'm tinkering with that atm
[12:44] <nbkr> drhumanist, give it a try: http://www.linuxforen.de/forums/showthread.php?t=232885
[12:45] <EvaLuaTe> Frogzoo, sorry but i'm new to linux and i would like to limit the number of processes for some users, that's all :)
[12:45] <warbler> Bajo: don't know how to help further - only use distro kernals myself...
[12:45] <drhumanist> nbkr: all the page or a specific fragment which might be more closely related to my problem?
[12:45] <Bajo> warbler, ok!
[12:45] <warbler> lol
[12:46] <boontoo> gvsa123: my problem i guess is my internet is very much a plug and play, i just have an cat5 port in my appartment that my net plugs into, i cant port forward, set static ips, configure routers or anything =(
[12:46] <gvsa123> boontoo: one thing that was missing with that tut is to add the IP of the windows box in /etc/hosts
[12:46] <kurosaki> jrib, Okies that seemed to do the trick but, after it downloaded the .tar.gz I got a md5 error :/ md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[12:46] <boontoo> gvsa123: im sure wireshark can do that
[12:46] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:46] <nox-Hand> Let's hypothesise I *accidentally* installed an unstable newer version of libc6 on my Computer and now I need to get the old one back... I downloaded the original stable version, but in gdebi, it says that a newer version is already insatlled. I cannot uninstall the version I got, as 90% of my packages depend on it. How would I replace it? o_o
[12:46] <boontoo> especially as i don't know the IP's theres about 50 of them
[12:47] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: "@group                hard    nproc           1023"
[12:47] <gvsa123> boontoo: i didn't do those and my xp and fiesty communicates quite well.
[12:47] <jrib> kurosaki: k, it's a bug that's fixed in feisty-security multiverse  and  feisty-updates multiverse (enabling either one should get you the new version of the package)
[12:47] <boontoo> gvsa123: i guess all i can do is try
[12:47] <kurosaki> jrib, Righto, was just about to ask that since it's mentioned on that page. Thanks again.

[12:49] <gvsa123> boontoo: the ip's are only needed for name resolution or something like that... well it's supposed to speed up the access times. that's one of the problems i encountered
[12:49] <kurosaki> jrib, Viola! Much appreciated.
[12:49] <gvsa123> boontoo: no expert here.... just sharing what worked for me.. :)\
[12:49] <GNine> nox-Hand,  u still should be to accomplish that thru synaptic
[12:49] <GNine> *albe
[12:49] <boontoo> gvsa123: i guess a windows partition would be handy to get the IPs aslong as they are static i guess
[12:49] <drhumanist> nbkr: i got it translated.... they say i may need an application called xmode to alter the lines in conf
[12:49] <GNine> *able
[12:49] <boontoo> gvsa123: no problem im far far far from expert so any advice helps
[12:50] <drhumanist> nbkr: opening the english one now

[12:50] <alimurat> hey everyone
[12:50] <gvsa123> boontoo: if you only want to connect to the windows network, i think samba should do the trick.
[12:51] <alimurat> i need some help..
[12:51] <GNine> Kevor, u have so much reading ahead of you
[12:51] <boontoo> gvsa123: does it suport a novel client login? or should i not be asking so many lazy questions heh

[12:52] <alimurat> but i need to install somn' so need to have have a password
[12:52] <GNine> even if your WAN is down and you are physically connected to any computer on your intranet , you should be able to connect thru samba
[12:52] <alimurat> just installed my ubuntu and did not have a root password yet
[12:53] <drhumanist> nbkr: should i try AUTOMATIX? what do you think?
[12:53] <GNine> !root | alimurat
[12:53] <ubotu> alimurat: 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
[12:53] <nocti> kevor: the timestamp on the /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily determines when the cron.daily scripts are run
[12:53] <boontoo> gvsa123: some networks you have to login through a "secure" network identifier Novell is just that but i guess i will just find out

[12:53] <nox-Hand> Any help?
[12:53] <nbkr> drhumanist, I wouldn't Automatix just installes the drivers - but you did that already.
[12:53] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:54] <alimurat> jrib: i want to install the murrine configurator
[12:54] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok
[12:54] <jrib> nox-Hand: if you don't have backups, make them now.  You can try 'apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION' to downgrade a package
[12:54] <gvsa123> alimurat: it's probably your login password that's needed
[12:54] <alimurat> no, it did not work
[12:54] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:54] <GNine> the GLscreensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:54] <alimurat> can you help me to install it for a couple of minutes?
[12:55] <teKnofreak> !patience | Bo2
[12:55] <ubotu> Bo2: 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
[12:55] <jrib> alimurat: how are you trying to install it?
[12:55] <Bo2> ok
[12:55] <gvsa123> alimurat: what are you doing?
[12:55] <alimurat> well, first, i tried to find murrine in synaptic
[12:55] <Bo2> be back in 5min
[12:55] <alimurat> than found it, checked for installation
[12:55] <alimurat> it said, that it was complete
[12:56] <jrib> !enter | alimurat
[12:56] <ubotu> alimurat: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:56] <evoc> ciao
[12:56] <evoc> sorry
[12:56] <alimurat> so, then i searched the murrine in applications, but could not find it
[12:56] <evoc> wrong window
[12:56] <drhumanist> nbkr: i read both the english ones.... they provide product specific information.... which lines i should append and where - nothing told about that :(
[12:56] <teKnofreak> alimurat, try "locate alimurat" in the terminal
[12:56] <dewp> ola
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, err... locate murrine
[12:57] <alimurat> i teknofreak, i did it now, there were lots of writens..:)
[12:57] <GNine> some packages install programs that can only be run from command line
[12:57] <dewp> after installing the recent nvidia driver, x gives the followin error "this nvidia driver component has version 100.14.11 but the nvidia kernel module's version does not match"
[12:57] <alimurat> :D
[12:57] <alimurat> ok
[12:57] <drhumanist> nbkr: is there a script or package to solve that?
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, whereis murrine
[12:57] <alimurat> nowhere...:(
[12:57] <alimurat> there's nothing happened
[12:57] <jrib> alimurat: the murrine engine is in the ubuntu repos, but murrine configurator is not
[12:57] <dewp> does anyone know this? i can't see the reason, because the kernel module was compiled with the installation
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, what is murrine btw ?
[12:57] <gvsa123> alimurat: that mean you have it installed. it's the launcher you are looking for...
[12:57] <alimurat> ok
[12:58] <alimurat> could someone give a hand to do it in the right way?
[12:58] <tuxcrafte1> hello guys, how do i disable aiglx under gusty?
[12:58] <nox-Hand> jrib: Excellent :)
[12:58] <gnomefreak> tuxcrafte1: ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:58] <aogara> user/groups pb solved
[12:58] <aogara> thanks
[12:58] <alimurat> so, how will i install the launcher.. gvsal23
[12:59] <alimurat> gvsa123, sorry...
[12:59] <jrib> alimurat: usually there are README and INSTALL files with instructions on how to install tar.gz archives and the like
[12:59] <drhumanist> nbkr: so i have to enter lines manually?
[12:59] <alimurat> i'm too fresh for that things, believe me i tried..:(
[12:59] <teKnofreak> is murrine an app or an engine?
[12:59] <raf256> what email client (GUI) is good for mass sending emails?
[12:59] <raf256> that is, collect email addresses from Inbox; then we write an email, and that email get send to each person (separatelly) on the list
 engine
[12:59] <GNine> the GLscreensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[01:00] <jrib> teKnofreak: there is a murrine engine, but alimurat asked about "murrine configurator" which helps to configure it
[01:00] <gvsa123> alimurat: usually, you type in the name of the application in the terminal. most often than not how they appear in synaptics is how you type them in... i'm not sure of a command to know the command though
[01:00] <yeniklasorr> VSpike : I don't believe it really worked perfectly. That was amazing boot.
[01:00] <teKnofreak> jrib, ah ok :)
[01:00] <alimurat> brb
[01:00] <aogara> another one for you :  my display resolution is limited to 640x480 ... i modifyed my xorg.conf for 800x600 as minima but it don't works ... I use the default driver
[01:00] <drhumanist> nbkr: are we still in touch :)=
[01:00] <aogara> I would like to set to 800x600 manually
[01:01] <agus_bt> .com
[01:01] <chuy_max> aogara system -> preferences -> screen resolution
[01:01] <aogara> yeah i tried
[01:01] <VSpike> yeniklasorr: great news!
[01:02] <warbler> aogara: what's the card?
[01:02] <yeniklasorr> yep :D
[01:02] <VSpike> yeniklasorr: thanks, it was good to learn about that for me too
[01:02] <jrib> alimurat: http://murrine.netsons.org/?q=node/8 is a simple python executable with instructions in the README file
[01:02] <alimurat> ok, so where can i ask about it, mean, the murrine configurator?
[01:02] <teKnofreak> aogara, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:02] <teKnofreak> aogara, backitup before you edit
[01:02] <yeniklasorr> VSpike : thank you too to
[01:02] <aogara> don't really know .. integrated card ... on hp proliant ML 110
[01:02] <alimurat> jrib... please
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: yes?
[01:03] <alimurat> i have downloaded it already
[01:03] <aogara> nowhere to find which chipset it is
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: did you extract it?
[01:03] <GNine> i take it that no one here knows about OpenGL
[01:03] <alimurat> tell me how to install it in terminal
[01:03] <alimurat> yes, extracted
[01:03] <nox-Hand> What way was it I could list all packages on my system and send that list to a file?
[01:03] <aogara> teKnofreak: I did
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: did you read the newmurrineconfigurator/README file?
[01:03] <teKnofreak> aogara, restart X then
[01:03] <faileas> !grub
[01:03] <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
[01:03] <alimurat> let me check if i have or not... jrib
[01:04] <aogara> I restarted the whole system ^^ .. that's why i'm supprised and asks
[01:04] <warbler> aogara: system-preferences-hardware
[01:04] <teKnofreak> alimurat, read the INSTALL and README files which accompanies a package, they tell you lot of things
[01:04] <alimurat> off course, now i'm checking it
[01:05] <GNine> that ***ing configurator is a nice topic     lol
[01:05] <icone> bood morning
[01:05] <icone> good*
[01:05] <alimurat> i did not read it because that file had to be extracted twice, but i did it just once for maybe it must kept that way..
[01:05] <GNine> not
[01:05] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[01:06] <warbler> !nvidia
[01:06] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:06] <aogara> i'll take a look
[01:06] <nox-Hand> !clone
[01:06] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[01:06] <GNine> there are only a few options for nvidia to work on ubuntu.. they are all in the synaptic package manager
[01:07] <GNine> the rest is to have it properly configured for the xserver
[01:07] <GNine> the end
[01:07] <icone> anybody know why I cant download ubuntu 7.0.4 i386 alternate version ?     it returns a error message when i click the download link (error to change directory). Then I accessed thru ftp and the directory v 7.04 isn't there.
[01:07] <NET||abuse> this is sucky , i've been hacking away trying to get my flash sound back,, i've used the alsa-oss and firefoxrc dsp change with no success.. can anyone help me?
[01:07] <ari_stress> good afternoon :)
[01:07] <Shaffox> Is it easy to use photoshop in linux?
[01:07] <NET||abuse> I had sound in flash at one stage in my life,, but it's been gone a month now.. i really need sound
[01:07] <Frogzoo> icone: get the torrent maybe: http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/feisty/release/ubuntu-7.04-dvd-i386.iso.torrent
[01:08] <teKnofreak> Shaffox, try Gimp ;)
[01:08] <GNine> !flash
[01:08] <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

[01:09] <viktor> how to install Mach TV Tuner card with Philips chipset on Ubuntu Feisty
[01:09] <drhumanist> guys.... I have a problem with the resolution.... i have 7.04 updated, with Nvidia drivers loaded. I have Toshiba A-100 599 with Nvidia GeForce 7600...
[01:09] <drhumanist> I just cannot get 1200x800 which is the native resolution
[01:09] <GNine> !root
[01:09] <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
[01:09] <drhumanist> they say i have to define some modes in the xorg.conf file but i don't know how to!!
[01:10] <GNine> of course .. i you had set up a user password.. then that is you root password.. go do some reading
[01:10] <gvsa123> boontoo: if i recall correctly, when your windows machine doesn't have a password, you leave it blank... or create a password for it would be easier and safer i guess.. :)
[01:10] <teKnofreak> the intel drivers rock.. they have really transformed my desktop into much better one
[01:10] <icone> frogzoo do you have the cd version ?     (not the livecd, the alternate version) ?

[01:11] <icone> frogzoo tnks man

[01:11] <drhumanist> warbler: i opened the terminal :)
[01:11] <NET||abuse> GNine, i've already read the ubuntu feisty faq, and tried the alsa-oss fix, my flash will still not play.
[01:12] <NET||abuse> this has to be fixable as flash worked on this install previously without any changes to the default setup
[01:12] <GNine> some things change
[01:12] <NET||abuse> It just ceased to work one day last month, and i just do not know why it didn't work
[01:12] <GNine> what you need to figure out is what

[01:30] <warbler> drhumanist:reading
[01:31] <larson9999> i wonder if my flash woes stem from upgrading instead of fresh installs.  the 2 boxes that don't have issues are both laptops with fresh installs.  the 2 i have issues with are desktops with years of upgrades.
[01:31] <drhumanist> warbler: Oki
[01:31] <teKnofreak> boontoo, you have the bluez-utils ?
[01:31] <Actionman> when i boot up how can i see whats behind the boot screen?
[01:31] <boontoo> teKnofreak: yeh i do
[01:31] <Pici> Bo2: As of Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) the recommended way to install the binary drivers is to use System  Administration  Restricted Devices Manager.
[01:31] <teKnofreak> boontoo, is the bluetooth daemon running in services ?
[01:31] <boontoo> yep
[01:32] <Pici> Bo2: Do you understand?

[01:32] <j4n3> teKnofreak: this not solve my problem. i cannot open "volume control" on the mixer systray icon ...
[01:32] <Pici> Bo2: Why dont you try doing that and ask me if you need any help.
[01:32] <teKnofreak> j4n3, type gnome-volume-manager in terminal
[01:32] <boontoo> teKnofreak: then hcitool dev reveals nothing =(
[01:32] <teKnofreak> boontoo, turn your bluetooth on and off and check dmsg
[01:33] <Bo2> pici:how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[01:33] <Laugh> drhumanist: on this xchat application, for now, there is no special window i can see between the tabs
[01:33] <Pici> Bo2: Is the card physically in the machine yet?
[01:33] <warbler> drhumanist: xorg.conf again - section screen - lines:Identifyer & Device - What's there
[01:33] <Bo2> pici:no
[01:33] <j4n3> teKnofreak: gnome-volume-manager work. gnome-volume-control not working
[01:33] <Pici> Bo2: I think it would be best to consult a channel like ##hardware for issues like that.
[01:34] <Pici> Bo2: just /join ##hardware
[01:34] <drhumanist> warbler: here it is: Identifier	"Default Screen"

[01:34] <drhumanist> 	Monitor		"Generic Monitor"
[01:34] <drhumanist> 	Defaultdepth	24
[01:34] <teKnofreak> j4n3, it works for me
[01:34] <teKnofreak> j4n3, when you execute it in terminal, what error do you get ?
[01:34] <warbler> drhumanist: & the line for Device?
[01:34] <drhumanist> laugh: dedim ki biraz daha sakin olunca isler kolaylasir ;)

[01:36] <drhumanist> warbler: can  i initiate a special session?
[01:36] <warbler> drhumanist: just checking the driver is alldunno?
[01:36] <warbler> *
[01:36] <tony_tomato> anyone having issues w gnochm and xchm? I think its a font/unicode issue certain characters turn into white-boxes such as long dash... when i convert to html i can see the character but its no longer a unified book :)
[01:37] <drhumanist> warbler: i can send the whole file if you want
[01:37] <boontoo> teKnofreak: would i be greping for just bluetooth or could theyre be conflicts

[01:37] <Pici> tony_tomato: The only thing I can suggest would be to install msttcorefonts.
[01:38] <Pici> tony_tomato: If that doesnt help, then I'm not sure what the issue is.
[01:38] <warbler> drhumanist: to me the driver is not giving you yhe options it should - have you -in terminal - typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[01:38] <laptop> How do I save the file after editing it using vi?
[01:39] <boontoo> teKnofreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35376/
[01:39] <drhumanist> warbler: yes i tried it with another person from this channel... it did not help... he told me to DEFINE a MODE by hand.
[01:39] <larson9999> laptop: you should read just a bit on vi before using it.  it's a whole other animal.
[01:40] <drhumanist> warbler: i did it again...
[01:40] <warbler> drhumanist: if the driver is right it should give the resolutions... - which source for the driver did you use?
[01:40] <danielig> hi ubuntistas
[01:40] <drhumanist> warbler: maybe i did it in a wrong way last time... could you give step by step info?
[01:40] <jrib> laptop: ESCAPE and then  :w        But you should really run 'vimtutor' to learn to use vim
[01:41] <danielig> I still have  a trouble compiling a programm with gcc
[01:41] <warbler> drhumanist: when you sudo dpkg - what selections do you make??
[01:41] <danielig> I have installed build-essential
[01:41] <drhumanist> warbler: i should probably choose NVIDIA from the menu, right?
[01:41] <stimpie> danielig, what is the error? and did you install g++?
[01:41] <warbler> drhumanist:bloody well YES hehe :)
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: now i am redoing. :D
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: i selected NVIDIA AGAIN :)
[01:42] <Dumptruck> hello everyone
[01:42] <laptop> How do I save the file after editing it using vi?
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: it say to give a name to identify my card: i will type NVIDIA GEFORCE 7600, is that OK?
[01:42] <warbler> drhumanist: after hit cntl-alt-bksp to restart x
[01:42] <tony_tomato> Pici, already installed :(
[01:43] <Pici> tony_tomato: I'm not sure then :/
[01:43] <warbler> yes
[01:43] <ben_underscore> laptop: <esc> :w
[01:43] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles.  any fixes?
[01:43] <tony_tomato> anyone else.. know how to resolve font issue in gnochm?
[01:43] <laptop> thanks
[01:43] <drhumanist> warbler: it says it is being configured: how long should the process take normally??
[01:43] <drhumanist> how long should i wait
[01:44] <ben_underscore> laptop: vi has a steep learning curve but is indispensable once you're there
[01:44] <Dumptruck> I know I am late in the conversation, but I used envy to set up my nvidia card and it worked like a champ
[01:44] <warbler> drhumanist: it done yet - if not wait
[01:44] <kauer> laptop: ESC to exit insert mode, then colon, w, ENTER to write the file. The colon q ENTER to quit. Or to do both at once, colon wq ENTER
[01:44] <Pici> !envy
[01:44] <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!
[01:44] <laptop> ben_underscore, kauer thanks :)
[01:44] <danielig> I have installed g++ stimpie and I have following output in config.log: http://pastebin.ca/670159
[01:45] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: I just went through a day of pain after installing a driver with envy. I had to recover my system without x and it was not nice
[01:45] <Dumptruck> hmm... maybe I was a lucky one
[01:45] <drhumanist> warbler: there is a last screen giving info.... and an OK box to click
[01:45] <drhumanist> well i press ENTER but nothing happens... anything else i have to do??
[01:45] <Dumptruck> envy for me was a last resort
[01:45] <Dumptruck> and it worked
[01:45] <kauer> laptop: unless you are prepared to spend a few hours getting to know vi, you would probably be better off sticking with nano, which is the default editor on feisty.
[01:45] <warbler> drhumanist: click
[01:46] <drhumanist> i did
[01:46] <ben_underscore> laptop: or gedit :-)
[01:46] <warbler> &
[01:46] <drhumanist> i doesnt propmt me in any way that the process is completed... IS THIS NORMAL?
[01:46] <laptop> kauer, actually I was helping my friend edit his .bashrc and he's using RedHat. pico wasn't installed so the only other editer I could think was vi. I forgot about nano
[01:46] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: for sure, i understand
[01:46] <warbler> drhumanist: I would reboot it now!
[01:46] <laptop> It worked now :)
[01:47] <drhumanist> warbler: ctrl alt bckspc is OK or a real restart?
[01:47] <danielig> stimpie: I really appreciate your help. I have no clue, the error appears on line 66
[01:47] <warbler> drhumanist: I would reboot now
[01:47] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[01:47] <drhumanist> ok
[01:48] <Dumptruck> is anyone familiar with vmware?
[01:48] <GNine> they were good just yesterday
[01:48] <warbler> !vmware
[01:48] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[01:48] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: a little
[01:48] <Bucketface> Did I get D/c or somethingD;?
[01:49] <danielig> has anyone an idea how I can get a movie from a sony handycam to my ubuntu feisty?
[01:49] <Dumptruck> if I am running a 32 bit linux can a 64 bit version of Vista be run with vm?
[01:49] <stimpie> danielig: dont know what could cause that, but gcc giving a segfault is serious
[01:49] <boontoo> !bluetooth
[01:49] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[01:50] <stimpie> danielig: I would try another gcc version
[01:50] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: i cannot imaging why not -- vmware just does the hardware emulation
[01:50] <Dumptruck> i see
[01:51] <boontoo> that guide is completly useless because it assumes that your ubuntu recognises the bluetooht device
[01:51] <danielig> exactly stimpie, but no-one else seemed to have this problem. I wanted to test the gcc with a simple hello world programm, but I don't know how this would work, I have written a hellow world, now I want to compile it with: gcc -c helloword.c ?
[01:51] <Dumptruck> what is the best way to merge to partitions and set the permissions on hd's?
[01:51] <Dumptruck> *two not to
[01:51] <danielig> I have tried with gcc 3.4., did not work...
[01:51] <stimpie> danielig: gcc -o helloworld.c should do it
[01:51] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: have you seen this to create your VM http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml
[01:52] <drhumanist> warbler
[01:52] <drhumanist> i rebooted....
[01:52] <boontoo> anybody been able to install ubuntu bluetooth devices?
[01:52] <drhumanist> nothinng has changed
[01:52] <ben_underscore> boontoo: yes i installed a bluetooth mouse
[01:52] <Dumptruck> I tried used the Howtoforge website with really good success
[01:52] <regis_> hello, how can i use a kernel from gusty guibon(i need that for my N intel wifi)
[01:52] <danielig> stimpie: no input files... although helloworld.c is there...
[01:53] <ben_underscore> boontoo: but it was a pain and i abandoned it :-)
[01:53] <warbler> drhumanist: control center
[01:53] <boontoo> ben_underscore: i have a bluetooth device thats the same as my wireless card, its onboard, ubuntu detects the wireless but not the bluetooth any ideas?
[01:53] <boontoo> oh
[01:53] <boontoo> ok
[01:53] <drhumanist> warbler: yes
[01:53] <Chinaski1> i
[01:53] <Chinaski1> hi
[01:53] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[01:54] <kauer> stimpie: danielig: "gcc -o helloworld.c" may destroy the source code in "helloworld.c". Try  "gcc -o helloworld helloworld.c"...
[01:54] <stimpie> oeps my mistake sorry
[01:54] <warbler> drhumanist: what resolutions are available?
[01:54] <Dumptruck> can I set permissions in gparted?
[01:55] <danielig> helloworld.c:1: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault

[01:55] <danielig> see <URL:file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.1/README.Bugs>.
[01:55] <cromo> hi. I have some problems with qc-usb-messenger kernel module compilation. For some reason it segfaults (gcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program cc1)). Using feisty here and I am wonderign what's wrong. I tried compiling this module on other machine (archlinux, gcc 4.2.1) and it worked just fine.
[01:55] <jrib> danielig: use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org please
[01:55] <cromo> so I wonder if something is broken in feisty's gcc?
[01:55] <cromo> basically, it's enough to download http://home.mag.cx/messenger/source/qc-usb-messenger-1.6.tar.gz package, untar it and exec a typical 'make all' in the directory
[01:55] <Chinaski1> does samba protocol save a log file of his activity?(connections, loging etc.)
[01:56] <cromo> anyone can please confirm that he gets the error?
[01:56] <cromo> Chinaski1: not sure if it does by default, but you can enable it in /etc/smb.conf
[01:56] <kauer> cromo, meet danielig :-)
[01:56] <drhumanist> warbler: i reiterate i was told to define some modes inxorg.conf by hand
[01:56] <drhumanist> :)
[01:56] <cromo> danielig: u there?
[01:57] <danielig> sorry jrib, I am there
[01:57] <warbler> drhumanist: OK - setup can take time. Terminal again - up button for last command - in sudo dpkg pick nv driver
[01:57] <danielig> cromo
[01:57] <danielig> ?
[01:58] <cromo> danielig: kauer suggested you might be helpfull (at least I hope so) in my gcc issue.
[01:58] <cromo> ;-)
[01:58] <danielig> so what is your issue?
[01:58] <warbler> drhumanist: define modes to me just means typing them in but that doesn't work - yes?
[01:59] <kauer> cromo: No, you were just asking if anyone had seen this. Danielig has. Dunno if he can help though...
[01:59] <cromo> danielig: I explained it just a page or two above
[01:59] <cromo> ar
[01:59] <cromo> I see
[01:59] <drhumanist> warbler: well NO: i was told i should add some MORE LINES... but he also didnot know how :(
[01:59] <kauer> danielig, please paste your helloworld.c to thepastebin...
[01:59] <danielig> cromo, I have the same segfault error, but I don't know why not everybody has this error...
[02:00] <nox-Hand> I *need* to kill the DOS speaker in my Dell M65 laptop - how?
[02:00] <drhumanist> warbler: i did what you said in the terminal: it says : "dpkg: need an action option
[02:00] <nox-Hand> No BIOS ways.
[02:00] <warbler> drhumanist: the line depth 24 is the one that should have the res you want
[02:00] <danielig> kauer: helloworld.c is on : http://pastebin.ca/673425
[02:00] <kauer> nox-Hand: Stick a knitting needle through it.
[02:01] <tony_> kk
[02:01] <drhumanist> warbler: well depth 24 already HAS it... i put it there by myself.. but still no changes
[02:01] <Dumptruck> so I have created a vmx file on an external drive but I would like to migrate it to a sata drive, I used gparted to format two partions on one drive, however I am unable to write to those partitions, a few years back a experimented with fedora and I seem to remember using a chmod command as a root - although I don't know how to do this in Ubuntu - there is no way to give gparted root privligages in ubuntu?
[02:01] <warbler> drhumanist: in terminal press the up button on the keyboard
[02:01] <ben_underscore> nox-Hand: system --> preferences --> sound --> system beep
[02:01] <drhumanist> warbler: yeah
[02:02] <danielig> cromo: So I guess that most of the people here with feisty either a: never had to compile a programme, or b: that there is some other conflict with gcc (unlikely)
[02:02] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: run gparted via sudo
[02:02] <warbler> drhumanist: looking for sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:02] <jrib> danielig: g++ helloworld.c  gives you the same error?
[02:02] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: or copy the file using sudo cp
[02:02] <stimpie> danielig, try to compile with g++
[02:02] <Dumptruck> in console just type sudo gparted?
[02:03] <Dumptruck> sorry I am still pretty new
[02:03] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: just let me read what you're trying to do again ... hang on
[02:03] <drhumanist> warbler: yes i found it... now?
[02:03] <danielig> stimpie: g++ works fine
[02:04] <alecwh> Hello! I'm looking for a sound converter that can convert a .m4a file to a .mp3 file. Can someone recommend a program?
[02:04] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: have you created 2 partitions on an external drive? do these mount / appear on your desktop when you connect the drive?
[02:04] <warbler> drhumanist: enter & when you can select "nv" for the driver
[02:04] <danielig> could it be that I should have done the compilation of that programm with g++ but somehow it chooses gcc?
[02:04] <Wousser> hello, i upgraded from feisty to gutsy but now my system freezes after the ubunu loading bar, before gnome. What can I do?
[02:04] <jrib> danielig: what is "it"?
[02:05] <drhumanist> warbler: okay i did, now restart again?
[02:05] <warbler> k
[02:05] <danielig> it is alsa-driver-1.0.14
[02:05] <jrib> Wousser: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[02:05] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: no - it is an internal drive and no it doesn't show on the desktop
[02:05] <kauer> danielig: See your paste for my results with a clean install of build-essential.
[02:05] <defrysk> alecwh, audacity ?
[02:06] <Wousser> jrib: my fault, just remebered it
[02:06] <danielig> I just did ./configure like I am supposed to..
[02:06] <Dumptruck> wait when I connect to the drive yes
[02:06] <Dumptruck> sorry
[02:06] <B_Man> hows everyone this morning?
[02:06] <alecwh> defrysk, does auacity do that?
[02:06] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: so you can see it. what filesystem type did you create it as, ext3?
[02:06] <stimpie> danielig try compiling http://www.klaproos.net/helloworld.c with gcc
[02:06] <Dumptruck> yes - ext3
[02:06] <defrysk> alecwh, open it with audacity and save it as an mp3
[02:07] <defrysk> alecwh, not sure but woth a try
[02:07] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and is this vmx file sitting somewhere else on another disk?
[02:07] <alecwh> I odn't have audicity, I'll download right now.
[02:07] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:07] <B_Man> audacity is a handy editor
[02:07] <Dumptruck> but before I migrate the file I would like to join the two partitions
[02:07] <alecwh> what's the apt-get command?
[02:07] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and so you cannot copy the file from the source disk to the destination disk due to permissions?
[02:07] <jrib> danielig: 1. did you install build-essential  2. why are you compiling alsa?
[02:07] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:08] <alecwh> Ok, installing.
[02:08] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: then the best bet is to open up a terminal session (applications --> accessories --> terminal)
[02:08] <danielig> kauer: what do you mean, my paste: http://pastebin.ca/670159? I don't see anything there.
[02:08] <defrysk> alecwh, otherwise try soundconverter of for kde soundkonverter
[02:08] <Dumptruck> done
[02:08] <kauer> danielig: The test program in your configure dump compiles just fine for me using gcc after a clean install of build-essential.
[02:08] <alecwh> Ok. It's only one song. XD
[02:09] <defrysk> ok
[02:09] <kauer> danielig: Your later paste, of the helloworld program...
[02:09] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and then copy the file using sudo, which essentially executes it as root, like so "sudo cp /source/drive/file.vmx /destination/drive/file.vmx"
[02:09] <danielig> jrib: I have installed and re-installed (after purge) build-essential, I have downgraded to earlier gcc version and upgraded again...
[02:09] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: that should do it
[02:09] <RamiLeija> yes
[02:09] <t94xr> how do i open a folder window with root access?
[02:09] <jrib> t94xr: why?
[02:09] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: first I would like to make one big partition
[02:10] <t94xr> mounted hard drive
[02:10] <jrib> t94xr: what filesystem?
[02:10] <t94xr> ntfs
[02:10] <danielig> jrib: I have a Lenovo 300 N100 Laptop and sound is not working, . researching the web I found that I should recompile the newest Alsa driver in order for sound to come up.
[02:10] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > t94xr (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:10] <WooD> Hi ! Is there any good software to make backup of the /var/www  I mean the website ?
[02:10] <t94xr> no im in a live cd
[02:10] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: ah. you'll need to copy off the files on there and then gparted the whole drive
[02:10] <t94xr> i only want read only access
[02:10] <jrib> t94xr: gksudo nautilus
[02:11] <jrib> !backup > WooD (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:11] <stimpie> danielig: are you running 64bit?
[02:11] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore and if it is a variable size file - won't the permissions need to be changed?
[02:11] <WooD> jrib: thanks
[02:11] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: no, but you'll need to make sure you have enough space on the drive
[02:11] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: that's the thing gparted won't let me format the whole drive
[02:12] <jrib> danielig: that error you have in config.log usually pops up because ld is missing which binutils provides.  If you're sure you have binutils, then try running ./configure in a clean source
[02:12] <danielig> no stimpie
[02:12] <Dumptruck> I don't have the proper permissions
[02:12] <danielig> what you  mean in a clean source?
[02:12] <stimpie> have you installled, libc6-dev-i386 ?
[02:13] <jrib> danielig: tar xf foo.tar.gz  again
[02:13] <drhumanist> warbler: i did... nothing again :(
[02:13] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: oh, der. sorry about that .... yes run it using sudo, ie: gksudo gparted
[02:13] <warbler> drhumanist: control center for res
[02:13] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: gksudo is the way to run x apps as sudo
[02:13] <steel_lady> ok, I need a way to save 4GB SD card. The system doesn't see it. They told me that I should just reformat it but I don't know how
[02:14] <drhumanist> warbler: still the same things... no 1200x800
[02:14] <Dumptruck> still won't let me unmount to resize
[02:14] <Pelo> morning folks ,  anyone know if OOo is default in xubuntu ?
[02:15] <jrib> Pelo: it is not
[02:15] <Dumptruck> when I unmount one the other becomes mounted (locked)
[02:15] <Pelo> jrib,  thanks
[02:15] <danielig> okay... jrib, no chance, same error.
[02:15] <warbler> drhumanist: had more troubles than this in windows - next - can you open synaptic package manager & search "nvidia"
[02:15] <danielig> cromo: what is happening on your side?
[02:15] <Frogzoo> steel_lady: gparted should work
[02:15] <Dumptruck> and unmounting the extended is not an option
[02:15] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  when playing around with partitions you would do better to use the live cd
[02:15] <kitche> Pelo, I think it just has OOo word processor
[02:15] <jrib> danielig: apt-cache policy binutils  returns?
[02:15] <drhumanist> warbler: thanks for the consollation :):):)
[02:15] <Dumptruck> still running under gksudo
[02:15] <drhumanist> warbler: i am doing that
[02:15] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: ah, go to system --> preferences --> removable drives
[02:15] <kitche> at least mine did by default Pelo
[02:16] <jrib> kitche, Pelo: hmm abiword here iirc
[02:16] <kitche> jrib, yeah I have openoffice and abiword and mousepad installed by default
[02:16] <Dumptruck> but the drive I am partitioning is not removable
[02:16] <danielig> Installed: 2.17.20070103cvs-0ubuntu2 jrib
[02:16] <Pelo> kitche, k,  cause the xubuntu.com screenshots show gnome-office,  and I was wondering for my aunts computer
[02:16] <jrib> kitche: ah ok, must have missed OOo writer then
[02:17] <drhumanist> warbler: yes and what next now? :)
[02:17] <Pelo> jrib, you have OOo wirter ?
[02:17] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: oh yeah.
[02:17] <Dumptruck> i've been scratching my head for about a week with this
[02:17] <steel_lady> Frogzoo, it does not see it!
[02:17] <warbler> drhumanist: how many boxes checked green?
[02:17] <jrib> Pelo: I've since installed ubuntu-desktop but I don't remember it being installed
[02:17] <raf256> how good is support for intells 950 video card?  does it have full, as-good-as-in-windoze support, also in the OPEN SOURCE driver?  same as i915 ?
[02:18] <Pelo> jrib, Kitar|st   default  email ?  evolution or thunderbird ?
[02:18] <kitche> Pelo, it's kinda easy to miss OOo word Processor in the Office menu I didn't really notice it until I looked at the menu closely
[02:18] <danielig> jrib, when I try to compile that helloworld.c from http://www.klaproos.net/helloworld.c I get the same erro, segfault
[02:18] <drhumanist> warbler: seven (7)
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck:  "Mount removable drives when hot-plugged" enabled - it needs to be disabled, I came in late but I'm guessing you're having a problem with gparted remounting drives when you unmount one?
[02:18] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: it's not your main drive is it? it's a secondary one?
[02:18] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: is it possible to chmod the entire disc?
[02:18] <ben_underscore> IntuitiveNipple: it's not removable
[02:18] <warbler> drhumanist: min
[02:18] <Dumptruck> yes it is a secondary
[02:18] <jrib> danielig: erm, that's bad then
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> ben_underscore: It'll still do it - I've had that issue in the past, I always disable hotplug and removable and that solves it
[02:19] <danielig> I am in trouble, i told you... but I won't give up
[02:19] <steel_lady> #ffmpeg
[02:19] <jrib> danielig: you have anything in /usr/local?
[02:19] <Dumptruck> ok I'll give it a try
[02:19] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: well that is weird ... perhaps try what IntuitiveNipple said
[02:19] <danielig> jrib: you mean stuff like bin  etc  games  include  lib  man  sbin  share  src???
[02:19] <stimpie> danielig: make sure have you have libc6 and libc6-dev installed
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> It's caused when gparted 'rescans' the drives every time you make a change
[02:20] <bobot> saluut
[02:20] <jrib> danielig: yes, what's in /usr/local/bin?
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> It'll report the drive unmounted, but in the background gnome-vfs automounts the darned things :)
[02:20] <Dumptruck> holy crap
[02:20] <Dumptruck> it worked
[02:20] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: try it out, then unmount the drives and see if gparted lets you resize
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> happy now?
[02:20] <waldo> need a little help, i removed all my ide drives and was about to install a new kubuntu feisty ... however, the setup goes fine, after that, i reboot , at grub loading; it says error 15: file not found. i tried feisty ubuntu and kubuntu
[02:20] <Dumptruck> i would have never looked there
[02:21] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: well there you go ... i did the same once too but with a usb drive
[02:21] <waldo> .. removed my ide drives replaced them by sata drives
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: It took me a few hours when I originally had it happen to me to work out what was going on :)
[02:21] <danielig> libc6:
[02:21] <danielig>   Installed: 2.5-0ubuntu14
[02:21] <warbler> drhumanist: are you running 64 bit comp?
[02:21] <drhumanist> warbler: nope 32 bit
[02:21] <Dumptruck> Will that fix the permission issues as well?
[02:21] <warbler> k
[02:21] <Pelo> waldo,  you unplugged your other hdds before installing ubuntu ?   just set the bios to boot from the ubuntu hdd
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: I didnt' see anything else mentioned - I just came in
[02:22] <Frogzoo> steel_lady: you can use fdisk to partition it if you can figure out which device it is
[02:22] <danielig> jrib, nothing there...
[02:22] <Dumptruck> oh I am also unable to write to the drive
[02:22] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: probably not
[02:22] <jrib> stimpie: danielig segfaults on the c helloworld you linked too
[02:22] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: "drive" or "partition" - what kind of file-system is on it?
[02:22] <danielig> I mean nothing in /usr/local/bin
[02:22] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: you'd need to use sudo to copy files
[02:22] <stimpie> danielig: same for libc6-dev ?
[02:22] <Dumptruck> ext3
[02:23] <danielig> stimpie, same version for libc6-dev
[02:23] <Dumptruck> ah
[02:23] <Pelo> waldo,  it's actualy a good idea to have all your hdds plugged in when you install,  that way grub recognises them and also , before installing make sre that the hdd you install to is the boot hdd in the biios, that way alll the pcs of grub are on the same hdd
[02:23] <warbler> drhumanist: do you have "nvidia x-config" & "nvidia settings" selected?
[02:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: with ext3 the permissions are controlled by the file attributes, so you may need to have root access (as ben_underscore says, use sudo)
[02:23] <danielig> I wonder why this gcc tells me that it cannot write executeables?
[02:23] <Dumptruck> ok the resizing is completed
[02:24] <Dumptruck> ah ha
[02:24] <drhumanist> warbler: NO... neither of em
[02:24] <drhumanist> warble: shall i now?
[02:24] <danielig> help!
[02:24] <Dumptruck> can I reformat to make it essentially a dump drive?
[02:24] <Pelo> danielig, sudo ...
[02:24] <lieter> hi all, one of our customers brought us a ubuntu machine which he believes is root-kitted. However chkrootkit and rkhunter dont show anything strange. even in init 1. The rootpass was still correct so we believe the customer accidentally press CTRL+C. but how can i use apt to verify program(ls, netstat,,,) signatures?
[02:24] <danielig> sudo what?
[02:25] <danielig> sudo ./configure?
[02:25] <danielig> tried that
[02:25] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: What does the config.log report in the directory where you're trying to run it?
[02:25] <drhumanist> warbler: shall i select them now?
[02:25] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: yep, that's what i have mine as - 250 gb of dump
[02:25] <warbler> drhumanist: install them reboot & look for them in the index - applications
[02:25] <drhumanist> warbler: ok
[02:25] <steel_lady> Frozgoo, how do I do that? look that thole system does not recognize, win neither. I went before to one shop in another town and they told me they can not read it but it can be formatted
[02:26] <Dumptruck> ie could I use a different file system like fat32
[02:26] <cafuego> !info debsums
[02:26] <ubotu> debsums: Verify installed package files against MD5 checksums.. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.30 (feisty), package size 29 kB, installed size 168 kB
[02:26] <Pelo> lieter,  what makes the customer think he has a rootkit ?
[02:26] <cafuego> lieter: ^^
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: And which version of GCC is it ("gcc --version") ?
[02:26] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, that is the file I posted on http://pastebin.ca/670159, the only change is, that I have since upgraded the kernel to the lates version...
[02:26] <lieter> Pelo, cafuego, he was 'kicked' from his console
[02:26] <Pelo> !info debsums > lieter  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[02:27] <danielig> gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)
[02:27] <stimpie> danielig: I assume you updated kernel headers also?
[02:27] <danielig> sure
[02:27] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Latest kernel version? which one specifically? Is this Feisty?
[02:27] <lieter> Pelo, server is 6.06
[02:27] <danielig> it is all now: 2.6.20-16-generic
[02:27] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: the problem with fat32 is it does not support files > 2 gb
[02:27] <danielig> headers, kernel image and all the rest...
[02:27] <Dumptruck> I know
[02:28] <Pelo> lieter,  try that debsums thing that cafuego recomended , I 'm clueless
[02:28] <Dumptruck> hmm
[02:28] <danielig> feisty, course
[02:28] <lieter> ok
[02:28] <Dumptruck> is there another file system
[02:28] <Dumptruck> that doesn't need permissions?
[02:28] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: do you want to do windows and linux?
[02:28] <cafuego> lieter: Not a very smart rootkit that logs users out ;-)
[02:28] <lieter> but does that verify the debs. or the progs itself?
[02:28] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:28] <lieter> cafuego, thats why we think it isnt rootkitted
[02:28] <Dumptruck> but windows will run under vmware
[02:28] <Pelo> lieter,  the ppl in ##linux might also be able to help,  pretty hardcore channel
[02:29] <Dumptruck> so the filesystem for windows is not important
[02:29] <cafuego> lieter: Can you just give the machine back and say "there was no rootkit, we checked" ?
[02:29] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: it's a problem - there is an ext3 driver for windows which i've tried but is a bit flakey
[02:29] <lieter> Pelo, too bad i'm not hard core ;)
[02:29] <lieter> cafuego, it hosts 80 websites
[02:29] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: what project are you trying to build?
[02:29] <lieter> cafuego, and 2 very important ones
[02:29] <cafuego> lieter: Did you check the kernel log for oom-killer?
[02:30] <Dumptruck> I don't think that would be an issue
[02:30] <ben_underscore> BRB - talking to wife
[02:30] <Pelo> lieter, I just mean they might just be more informed about this stuff then we are, this is pretty much an installation problem channel,  the ppl in ##linux can compile everything from source
[02:30] <danielig> alsa-driver 1.0.14
[02:30] <Dumptruck> as they will be vmx files accessed by linux
[02:30] <Dumptruck> so it can be any file system supported by linux
[02:30] <beavis> hello
[02:30] <danielig> I want sound on my bloody laptop working!!!
[02:30] <cafuego> Pelo: Oi, so can I. Just coz I'm too lazy doesn't mean I don't think anything ;-)
[02:30] <Dumptruck> hello
[02:31] <warbler> !hello
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <cromo> danielig: sorry, I had to leave for a sec
[02:31] <cafuego> lieter: Give debsums a go. *if* there isa  rootkit *and* it's dumb enough to log users out, it probably won't have patched md5.
[02:31] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Try this: "CC=gcc ./configure"
[02:31] <danielig> so what did you find cromo?
[02:31] <cromo> danielig: what is happening? nothing really, I just wanted to compile that module and get that error
[02:32] <cromo> I wasn't searching a lot yet, wanted to make sure it's feisty's fault and not the software
[02:32] <cromo> *not the software compiled
[02:32] <Dumptruck> maybe I am unclear - sorry - so windows proper will never have access to the filesystem
[02:32] <Dumptruck> only vmware will
[02:32] <Dumptruck> so any filesystem will do that is recognized by ubuntu
[02:32] <beavis> windows doesn't read ext3
[02:32] <beavis> not without dodgy driver
[02:33] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, this didn't work either, I guess that the CC is correctly registered but fails.
[02:33] <cafuego> beavis: for variying values of "doesn't".
[02:33] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  you only use  ext3 then,   vmware is a virtual machine , it will run on anything and will create it,s own virtual hdds to run windows on
[02:33] <Dumptruck> yup
[02:33] <jrib> IntuitiveNipple: his gcc segfaults on helloworld
[02:34] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  but you won't be able to move anything between VM window and Ubuntu
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: create a new test directory, create a file 'test'c', put in it "#include <stdio.h>
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple>     int main(void) { printf("Hello, World!\n"); return 0; } " then in that directory see what "gcc -v test.c" reports
[02:34] <Dumptruck> but running an expanding and changing file will always require permission
[02:34] <beavis> use samba to transfer files between vm'd windows and ubuntu
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> jrib: Ahh, so, a libc issue most likely...Is there a pastebin URL of the errors?
[02:34] <Dumptruck> can I change the permissions permanently?
[02:34] <jessie_> hey all.
[02:35] <beavis> permissions for wot?
[02:35] <Pelo> DumberDrummer,  vmware will have permission you don'T need to deal with that
[02:35] <jrib> IntuitiveNipple: I didn't see one
[02:35] <Pelo> Dumptruck, vmware will have permission you don'T need to deal with that
[02:35] <cromo> danielig: are you using any backports or sth?
[02:35] <Dumptruck> ah ha
[02:35] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Can you pastebin the results of that "gcc -v test.c" if there are errors?
[02:35] <kitche> cafuego, that's always fun :{
[02:35] <cafuego> sorrycan'tspeakneedmycpucyclesnow
[02:36] <Dumptruck> but when I try to create a virtual machine it says I do not have permissions
[02:36] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  how are you creating yoru vm ?
[02:36] <Dumptruck> do I need to run vm ware with the gksudo command?
[02:37] <beavis> where you try to create vm machine, on seperate partition?
[02:37] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple: http://pastebin.ca/673449
[02:37] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:37] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: do you have the matching kernel-headers and glibc-devel packages installed?
[02:37] <Dumptruck> and seperate drive
[02:37] <beavis> you may need to chown the directory or partition u are using
[02:37] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: I have to go -- good luck with it all.
[02:37] <Dumptruck> thanks ben
[02:37] <ben_underscore> anytime
[02:37] <Dumptruck> I appreciate your help
[02:38] <Dumptruck> what is chown?
[02:38] <tmjb> i got problem with feisty isolinux fancy splash menu which block when i try to install on old computer with tnt vanta 16 mb card any ideas how to get text menu ?
[02:38] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: CHange OWNer
[02:38] <jessie_> Dumptruck, chown is a command that changes the owner
[02:38] <Dumptruck> is it similar to chmod?
[02:38] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, can you help me how to find that out?
[02:38] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: one might say that.
[02:38] <Black_Cat> but it changes the owner itself not his access rights
[02:38] <jessie_> Dumptruck, yes, just that you change who the owner is rather than who can access it.
[02:39] <Dumptruck> wouldn't it be better to just give everyone access?
[02:39] <Dumptruck> users not other of course
[02:39] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: completely insecure approach.
[02:39] <beavis> try 'sudo chown "your username" "path to v machine"
[02:39] <danielig> Dumptruck you can use it with owner and group: chown -r user:group file
[02:39] <Dumptruck> I am an insecure guy what can I say
[02:40] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: of course you can have 777 and owner doesn't matter
[02:40] <Dumptruck> ok
[02:40] <Frogzoo> 777 aiieeee!!!
[02:40] <danielig> don't do it Dumptruck
[02:40] <danielig> !
[02:40] <gvsa123> Dumptruck: that's also one of the things that make linux secure
[02:40] <Dumptruck> so I type chmod 777 in console?
[02:40] <danielig> no
[02:40] <danielig> never,
[02:40] <drhumanist> warbler:
[02:40] <danielig> (almost never)
[02:40] <Dumptruck> ok
[02:40] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: "dpkg-query -l 'glibc*' " and "dpkg-query -l 'linux-headers*' "
[02:40] <warbler> drhumanist:k
[02:41] <drhumanist> warbler: i did.... Ubuntu crashed!! now on Vista :(
[02:41] <drhumanist> warbler: you want to see the error messages?
[02:41] <gvsa123> anyone know why i lost the shutdown usplash after upgrading to fiesty?
[02:41] <warbler> drhumanist: "I did" ... means what exactly?
[02:42] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, what does it do now?
[02:42] <bobbob1016> How can I download sequential files with wget, as in file01, file02, file03, and so on?
[02:42] <Dumptruck> so what commands do I need to use to give all users read write and execute permission?
[02:42] <drhumanist> warbler: i loaded the two packages you asked via the Synaptics manager... and i rebooted
[02:42] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Here's what the gcc -v test.c output *should* look like, so you know what to expect: http://pastebin.intuitivenipple.net/66
[02:42] <warbler> drhumanist: then...
[02:42] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: well it shutsdown well but i lost the ubuntu logo with the progress bar...
[02:43] <drhumanist> warbler: error messages: Failed to load module "nvidia"
[02:43] <Alloosh> hi guys, Iam trying to paste mysql file in the terminal and its not pasting the file as it should, I think this is a bug
[02:43] <jessie_> bobbob1016, well, try something like "wget http:\\placetofilesfile0?.nameofextension"
[02:43] <Paddy_EIRE> bobbob1016, not sure it does them sequentially or altogether
[02:43] <saylar> hey guys. i need a favor. could someone please give me the ip address of reddit?
[02:43] <drhumanist> module doesn't exist
[02:43] <Dumptruck> and is there a graphic means of setting permissions I know I need to get used to the command line but it still kinda scares me
[02:43] <saylar> seems they're having some DNS problems
[02:43] <drhumanist> warbler: No drivers availabke
[02:43] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: the unusual line there goes something like: "inappropriate *something* init..."
[02:44] <jessie_> Dumptruck, if you run nautilus as root via "sudo nautilus" from a command line you can right click stuff to change owners and permissions.
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, I would check the forums for this problem.. chances are this has been resolved
[02:44] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple: this is whta I get for the glibc and kernel headers: http://pastebin.ca/673451
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> :0
[02:44] <bobbob1016> jessie_, I tried ? and * for the wildcard, and no luck, it's only 8 files, I'll do them one at a time
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> oops
[02:44] <Bucketface> Um, I accidently copied an unwritable folder to my  'Musics' folder, I can't delete it. I have tried sudo chown charles /home/charles/Musics/Buckethead
[02:44] <drhumanist> warbler: x server could not initialize during booting!
[02:44] <warbler> drhumanist: is that all - reboot in rescue and type at prompt sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - remember we changed the driver
[02:44] <jessie_> bobbob1016, oh... good to know.
[02:44] <Dumptruck> your guys are geniuses - thanks for all of your help!
[02:44] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: it wasn't last time i checked, i'll take a look now. not that this is a major thing for me though... :)
[02:45] <jessie_> Bucketface, try "sudo chown -R charles"
[02:45] <WindowsHater> hi guys!
[02:45] <drhumanist> ok warbler - trying now
[02:45] <drhumanist> see you
[02:45] <warbler> k
[02:45] <danielig> It looks to me like there is no glibc installed am I a complete fool?
[02:45] <Paddy_EIRE> Dumptruck, truck use gksudo nautilus
[02:45] <Bucketface> What? -R does whatnow D:?
[02:45] <jessie_> Bucketface, or what not. the -R makes it recursive and does it to all of the files and folders in that directory.
[02:45] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple???
[02:45] <Bucketface> okay.
[02:45] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Well, that shows you have the correct headers "inux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic"
[02:45] <Dumptruck> thanks paddy I thought as much
[02:45] <GNine> the big r is the right way
[02:46] <Paddy_EIRE> Dumptruck, no probs :)
[02:46] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[02:46] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: My mistake; try "dpkg-query -l 'libc-*' " :p
[02:46] <danielig> I also have linux-headers 2.6.20-16
[02:47] <jessie_> see you people. i have to go to school now.
[02:47] <Bucketface> JEssie, that didn't work D;
[02:47] <GNine> leave that cellphone
[02:47] <Bucketface> Also, byebye jessie
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Yes, but according to the config.log it is working with kernel "uname -r = 2.6.20-15-generic" so it shoulf be matched up
[02:47] <danielig> I pasted my libc*s on your pastebin...
[02:47] <Alloosh> Hi guys, is there limit for the number of characters I can paste to the terminal?
[02:47] <jessie_> Bucketface, no, try to do "sudo nautilus" in the terminal and just right click the folder to change them.
[02:48] <GNine> you wanna write a book at the terminal?
[02:48] <GNine> :-P
[02:48] <Paddy_EIRE> Bucketface, gksudo nautilus
[02:48] <Alloosh> GNine: no, I want to create tables in mysql
[02:48] <Bucketface> That worked~!
[02:48] <danielig> Intuitive Nipple: I have pasted the config.log two days ago, now have upgraded to the new kernel and also the config.log, when I try has the new kernel instead the old one...
[02:49] <Bucketface> IT changed it to the root user then I had access to it all amirite :D?
[02:49] <danielig> was lazy to paste again, since the result was no different except the kernel version.
[02:49] <GNine> dont know anything about sql.. too windowy for me
[02:49] <GNine> i would suggest nano tho
[02:49] <m0u5e> im dpkg reconfiguring xorg.conf, anyone know how to find my "video card bus identifier" info?
[02:49] <Paddy_EIRE> jessie tells you the wrong command then leaves Bucketface , ensure you use 'gksudo' or 'gksu' when launching graphical apps from the terminal
[02:50] <ckin2001> @alloosh - try phpmyadmin for easy mysql administration
[02:50] <Paddy_EIRE> Bucketface, those you wish to run with root privileges that is
[02:50] <beavis> it makes no difference, gksudo is just a graphical front end for sudo
[02:50] <kdub> m0u5e: you try lspci?
[02:50] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: redo that test, but *comment out* the '#include <stdio.h>' line with surrounding /*    */ and see what GCC says
[02:50] <Alloosh> ckin2001: I have it, but I like using the consol, do you know how can I access the consol?
[02:51] <KevinOman> hello, I just installed ubuntu server, and I can't seem to connect to it from another pc
[02:51] <ckin2001> mysql -u(username) -p
[02:51] <Alloosh> KevinOman: you need ssh server

[02:52] <Cin> hi can I change firefox to use mplayer instead of totem movie player?
[02:52] <warbler> ubotu is wise
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is wise - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:52] <Alloosh> ckin2001: I know this and Iam using it, but there is a limit to the number of chars I can paste in terminal
[02:52] <danielig> http://pastebin.intuitivenipple.net/68
[02:52] <Paddy_EIRE> Cin, remove the totem firefox plugin
[02:52] <Paddy_EIRE> Cin, 1 sec I have a good link for this
[02:52] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, is it possible to use mplayer in the browser instead?

[02:53] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: ok, so it doesn't look to be the linker and standard libraries
[02:53] <danielig> good
[02:53] <ckin2001> you could put the commands in a script and have them be executed - not sure on the syntax,though
[02:54] <KevinOman> sorry gnine im running ubuntu on both pc's
[02:54] <jkraid> hey guys, i have had a working s/w raid (md) setup on ubuntu feisty now for about 1 week, i rebooted my server and since my disks span across 2 different drivers/controllers, the new disk that i added whilst system was up, ended up jumping in first in the ordering i guess at device-mapper level (its still coming up as the fifth disk /dev/sde1). The problem is that now my mdadm doesnt see the raid set. any ideas? can i force order?
[02:54] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, totem is nice and all the progress bar doesn't actually do anything? all you can do is pause... O_o

[02:56] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, oh, disregard that last question; mentioned in the article ho ho
[02:56] <GNine> computers in the same intranet should be able to communicate thru dhcp protocol by default
[02:56] <beavis> then if apache is setup correctly you should be able to enter the other computers internal IP : 192.168..... to access the server, from a browser that is

[02:56] <Paddy_EIRE> Cin, yeah just for future reference as there is a handy bug fix in that thread :D
[02:57] <beavis> Kevin: I take it this doesn't happen
[02:57] <kdub> m0u5e: 0:2 would make sense, thats what my intel card is on my laptop at home, if i recall. your machine should be able to easily (and with less room for error) be able to identify the bus...
[02:57] <GNine> another possible way is to manual config of the router
[02:57] <m0u5e> kdub: isnt it in a 3 number format though? xx:xx:xx?

[03:06] <ChickenChance> Ubuntu isn't seeing my network card
[03:06] <ChickenChance> can you guys give me a little help?
[03:06] <Dumptruck> I know I don't see it - sorry
[03:06] <GNine> i810 is intel
[03:07] <warbler> !wireless
[03:07] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:07] <m0u5e> GNine: there are currently two drivers in the main repos, i810 is the official supported, with debian merge at 2.7.xx something of the sort, and the intel drivers are at 2.9
[03:08] <GNine> then id assume 2.9 as an upgrade. so .. why not
[03:08] <kdub> m0u5e: it wouldn't hurt, but probably won't add any functionality you don't already have. I have to use the intel drivers, (with a 2.6.22 kernel) because I have a GMA965.
[03:08] <Dumptruck> danielig: yeah I've looked through three time now and I don't see it
[03:08] <KevinOman> gnine I cannot ping anything but my router
[03:08] <m0u5e> kdub: any performance increase / stability issues you know about? :D
[03:09] <GNine> whats the known status of your networked puters? they up?
[03:09] <KevinOman> gnine it seems I can't even ping my router right now
[03:09] <Dumptruck> oh turd
[03:09] <kdub> m0u5e: I had difficulties with agpgart (the name for the allocated shared video ram) with the intel drivers and a 2.6.18 kernel, but other than that, not really
[03:09] <Dumptruck> sorry I figured it out
[03:10] <GNine> btw.. if you can ping your router.. thats a good sign .. ur closer to a solution
[03:10] <KevinOman> I can't connect to it from a browser either thru ubuntu
[03:10] <danielig> Dumptruck. you still have not pasted your permissions  from ls -al... first check where your disk is mounted (e.g. /mnt/hda6) then cd /mnt and do ls -al
[03:10] <KevinOman> gnine I have only been able to connect to my router in windows
[03:10] <Dumptruck> no it was my screwup
[03:10] <Dumptruck> I changed permissions on the wrong disk
[03:10] <GNine> oh well. .. Gnine is not a guru.  was just trying to point out a few things for you
[03:10] <Dumptruck> I'm an idiot
[03:11] <brad_> hey sorry my IRC crapped out
[03:11] <m0u5e> kdub: okay thx :)
[03:11] <danielig> Dumptruck: we are all idiots, just many of us fail to realise
[03:11] <kdub> KevinOman: make sure through online research, that your specific network interface has support with the kernel you are using. You may need to install drivers, or use ndiswrapper(if its wireless)

[03:19] <warbler> drhumanist: excuse my ignorance but how do you know the light brown screen is at that res?
[03:19] <praet> brad_: use lspci to get your exact detected hardware and search online for it
[03:19] <andrei_amator> hello ppl
[03:19] <WindowsHater> hi
[03:19] <Anon> genii: Yeah, I used to be a Kanotix user. But couldn't you just take Kanotix's kernel, which is downloadable on their website, and then model ubuntu around it?
[03:19] <Trae> kdub, I want a resolution switcher applet
[03:19] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, Im surprised that gnash cant handle youtube.. normally it can but heh... try that site I gave they tend to be very good

[03:21] <floresc7> Has anyone used DRBL on Fiesty?
[03:21] <paddu> hiiii everybody
[03:21] <praet> brad_: what comes up for viedo card?
[03:21] <WindowsHater> hi hi
[03:21] <praet> sorr network card
[03:21] <brad_> praet: Difference being OEMs hand out drivers with the machines
[03:22] <Paddy_EIRE> Cin, nice one...is it behaving the way you need it to
[03:22] <genii> Anon: You would need to ask someone who is more involved in the development end of the Ubuntu system to know if it was possible or what the plan is for driver/kernel support.
[03:22] <drhumanist> warbler: sorry i got disconnected
[03:22] <brad_> praet: hang on im going to check quick
[03:22] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[03:22] <warbler> k
[03:22] <drhumanist> warbler: what have i missed???
[03:22] <Trae> I hate when things have lame applet icons
[03:22] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, yeh, i think i went through alot of that before, but i'll step by step through method 3 and be 100% sure
[03:22] <drhumanist> warbler: we are really close this time
[03:22] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, I think so. it opens up an mplayer window, so then I have access to all the mplayer cool stuff
[03:22] <paddu> anybody is working on development of mobile OS??????/
[03:23] <floresc7> how about clonezilla?
[03:23] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, I'm using that firefox add-on
[03:23] <drhumanist> warbler: some minor setting in Xserver i suspect...
[03:23] <kdub> Trae, the nice thing about linux is, if you know where to look, you can change everything you want ;-)
[03:23] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, yeah.. be sure to remove any and all flash stuffs you have done so far including gnash if applicable :D
[03:23] <NET||abuse> yup, done that just now
[03:23] <genii> Anon: Also as i understand, the developer of Kanotix, Jrg Schirottke wrote much of the hardware detection engine.
[03:23] <NET||abuse> i love--purge
[03:23] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah :D
[03:23] <Trae> kdub, heh, tha'ts a big iff
[03:23] <PureEvilGeek> whats the difficulty level of joining a ubuntu desktop to an AD domain? and are there any features that will be missing?
[03:23] <Trae> kdub, that's like saying, if you know differential equations, you can do them.
[03:23] <warbler> drhumanist: I'm not there so can only suggest -yes it seems a minor setting but don't know how you got there
[03:24] <kdub> paddu, check out Ubuntu Mobile http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-for-mobile-internet-devices
[03:24] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, had a huge firefight with my desktop a while back though with nvidia drivers.. lots of things were left behind on 32bit libs for nvidia-glx, and the beta i installed a year ago..
[03:24] <paddu> thanks kdub
[03:24] <drhumanist> warbler: xserver asked many questions.... i think i replied them well....
[03:24] <tatters> anyone familer with tv card n webcams tell me if they know whats going on here ?      http://pastebin.com/m763fbec0
[03:25] <tatters> http://pastebin.com/m763fbec0
[03:25] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, nightmare,, --purge couldn't manage everythign for me :( anyway.. right,, back in a bit once i've gone through all of this.. also.. adobe fore linux.. must follow that link also :)
[03:25] <GNine> ok.. so nobody runs openGL screensavers here or what
[03:25] <kdub> Trae, but at least linux gives you the equations to work out. Some OSes (...) dont....
[03:25] <drhumanist> warbler: if we cannot solve this i will have to reinstall everything or maybe try another distro :(
[03:25] <medfly> GNine, i didnt see people using screensavers in years.
[03:25] <floresc7> How about using SATA hard drives on Ubuntu?
[03:25] <warbler> drhumanist: the trick is to get to a situation where x can ask again
[03:25] <drhumanist> warbler: oh and you will give commands to me?
[03:25] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, nasty.... linux supports hardware acceleration on my desktop with 1280x1024 windows cant do hardware accel with the card and I have tried so many drivers..
[03:26] <GNine> ok.. how about openGL
[03:26] <kdub> floresc7: the quickest trick with SATA drives is sometimes to put them in compatibility mode in the BIOS
[03:26] <Paddy_EIRE> grrr
[03:26] <drhumanist> warbler: i can arrange that if you want!
[03:26] <brad_> praet: My ethernet controller showed up as a Reltek Semiconductor Co. Ltd RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 1)
[03:26] <warbler> drhumanist: will be here!
[03:26] <drhumanist> ok than i will go and get another computer ! just wait :)
[03:26] <drhumanist> see you
[03:26] <floresc7> kdub: I only have 2 options in BIOS, tried both.  One is normal, the other is RAID
[03:26] <warbler> k
[03:26] <cosmodad> does network manager not support WPA yet?
[03:26] <tatters> I use my TV as monitor in living room and like screensaver playin if not using
[03:27] <GNine> am amazed how you guys seem to know everything but a fundamental graphics development tool like OpenGL , disappointing
[03:27] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, why would we want to know that
[03:27] <slavik> GNine: what exactly should we know about opengl
[03:27] <kdub> GNine: who's to say theres no OpenGL gurus around?
[03:27] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, we all run using terminal sessions here :P
[03:28] <GNine> is it not part of the system.. or am i imagining this?
[03:28] <medfly> pfft, youre just upset because you cant waste MORE electricity by having a screensaver
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, hes trying to gode someone into soving his prob :P
[03:28] <brad_> praet: Sorry a Realtek ""
[03:28] <medfly> no, opengl isnt part of any operation system.. wtf
[03:28] <GNine> ha!
[03:28] <GNine> Paddy_EIRE,  is catching up some
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[03:29] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, get a decent gfx card
[03:29] <GNine> however.. am a graphics oriented entity.. i like flashy things
[03:29] <KevinOman> anyone know why o can't connect to my router with ubuntu, but YOU can with windows, I have dd-wrt installed on router
[03:29] <GNine> i already have a nice one of those
[03:30] <praet> tatters: try commenting out the "v4l" module
[03:30] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, what is it
[03:30] <mindshift> CHAOS
[03:30] <GNine> nvidia type.. my issue is not hardware based tho
[03:30] <tatters> praet give it a shot thnx for looking
[03:30] <floresc7> any other ideas for mounting a SATA HD?
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, sounds like it is... you dont even know what your card is so how do you know its not a driver problem
[03:31] <GNine> i know what it is .. and i know what is not my problem ..
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, or insufficent video ram..
[03:31] <steel_lady> is there some problem in ubuntu handling SD cards?
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, fancy letting us in on the secret
[03:31] <hacked_kernel> I got a server that has only one user "root", but root can't open log files in /var/log/*  even I can't use stat to read file status, it say permission denied
[03:32] <warbler> steel_lady: hows the little movies going?
[03:32] <hacked_kernel> any help
[03:32] <tatters> praet: comment them out where in xorg?
[03:32] <brad_> praet: Could u give me a hand finding a driver for my card?
[03:32] <genii> hacked_kernel: When you set the box up, you chose "root" as the first username to create?
[03:33] <GNine> i identified the issue already ...  if there are no known fixes in this room... its all good
[03:33] <steel_lady> warbler, I encoded it as they told me but it does not work. then I dl the win program, encoded to see what is the difference and is it working and now ubuntu doesn't want to write the file on neither of my SD cards
[03:33] <hacked_kernel> genii, Yes
[03:33] <floresc7> Anyone know anything about SATA hds?
[03:33] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, you have not identified anything to me... except that you gfx card is "nvidia type" ..?
[03:34] <GNine> besides.. you admitted you dont know anything about openGL. you wouldnt be much help anyway
[03:34] <GNine> thanks for the interest tho
[03:34] <praet> brad_: looking. should use the r8169 driver  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=806796
[03:34] <warbler> steel_lady: It's an issue - but check for drivers for your cards - like win , linux needs drivers
[03:35] <genii> hacked_kernel: When you are trying to edit thing, you are using sudo?
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, could you stop wasting line after line on trolling or do you actually have an issue you need help with..?  Previously I had been sarcastic because of your attitude to the room
[03:35] <hacked_kernel> genii, sure
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> !Patience | GNine
[03:35] <ubotu> GNine: 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
[03:35] <boomh4u3r> How do I update my gfx card driver?
[03:35] <GNine> you are the one exhibiting an attidute
[03:36] <steel_lady> warlber, it was working fine before. now I put the card mount, write, unmount and when I put it again -no file!
[03:36] <praet> brad_: realtek makes a unix driver, that may help: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[03:36] <UbuntuGuy> Hi all, quick question: How can I see which package(s) depend(s) on a given package
[03:36] <boomh4u3r> I have an ATI x1600
[03:36] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, you know what man.. I dont even want to help you anymore.. good luck with BOTH your problems :)
[03:37] <GNine> issue: inoperable openGL screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles including the openGL type.  any known fixes?
[03:37] <brad_> praet: Thanks, I am going to check that all out. Thanks.
[03:37] <GNine> Paddy_EIRE, your welcome
[03:37] <genii> hacked_kernel: You are able to use sudo then if you put your password that you set the user "root" up with?
[03:37] <warbler> steel_lady: apart from suggesting drivers I don't know - repost prob - someone here now maybe has experience?
[03:38] <hacked_kernel> genii, it didn't ask for password
[03:38] <warbler> !patience

[03:38] <floresc7> Help anyone?  I am trying to make cloned images of a HD using clonezilla on DRBL.  The problem is all the computers recieving the images have SATA hds.  Ubuntu is not recognizing these HDs.  I have tried both modes in BIOS, Normal and RAID.  Anyone have any ideas?
[03:38] <praet> brad_: check card driver info like this: lshw -C network
[03:38] <alags> hi, i'm trying to set up a vnc  here. When i check the vnc, no window manager is loaded, though i have mentioned gnome-session in my xstartup.
[03:38] <alags> can someone help?
[03:38] <praet> tatters: should comment that out in your modules.conf i think. let me check
[03:38] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, .. do you have a screenshot of any of this
[03:39] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, synaptic lists dependend packages under properties. But I don't know if this only refers to installed packages or all the packages in the repository.
[03:39] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, I am prettly familiar with opengl
[03:39] <steel_lady> warbler, I don't have other expnanation than it is moody. I do same as always but is just ignores me
[03:39] <GNine> the screenshot would be a blank screen.. there are NO visuals.
[03:39] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, in a terminal type 'glxgears'
[03:39] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: which video driver version are you using?
[03:39] <genii> hacked_kernel: The prudent thing to do would be to rename that user from root (because that is a reserved system name) to something else.
[03:39] <warbler> steel_lady: you said you downloaded win version?
[03:40] <GNine> glx
[03:40] <alags> hi, i'm trying to set up a vnc  here. When i check the vnc, no window manager is loaded, though i have mentioned gnome-session in my xstartup.
[03:41] <warbler> steel_lady: 0's & 1's don't have temper tantrums :) hehe
[03:41] <GNine> i got all kinds of glx , the rss package , the mesa glx ..
[03:41] <predaeus> GNine, does glxgears show anything?
[03:41] <GNine> everything needed for openGL to work .. except no dough
[03:41] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: yep, but Actually I need the reverse. I have a package "foobar" installed and I want to see what depends on it.
[03:41] <steel_lady> warbler, I dl the program that encoded the movie differently. it plays fine on ubuntu, now i want to check if it plays on my pocket and if it does, I would try to copy the file parameters to try to do it with ffmpeg
[03:41] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: If you want help, you need to tell us the *exact* driver version, and the *exact* chipset on the problem system
[03:41] <genii> hacked_kernel: eg:    sudo vipw                      then go to where it has name root with something like 1000:1000     and change root to another name
[03:41] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, you can see that in synaptic.
[03:41] <GNine> testing glxgear now
[03:41] <brad_> praet: what was i looking for?
[03:41] <warbler> k
[03:42] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, just change the option under "Properties".
[03:42] <floresc7> Does anyone boot using a SATA hard drive?
[03:42] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, pastebin the output after a little while
[03:42] <warbler> steel_lady: k
[03:42] <boomh4u3r> I have an ATI x1600..How do i get the driver to install? thx
[03:42] <per> can somone please help me install thunderbird-2.0.0.6.tar.gz and what to do after the files are extracted
[03:42] <genii> hacked_kernel: normally would want to use usermod but because now 2 names of root don't want to rename the real root account
[03:42] <warbler> !ati
[03:42] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[03:42] <recon> Does anybody know if the ubuntu version of netcat was compiled with GAPING_SECURITY_HOLE?
[03:42] <warbler> drhumanist: ?
[03:43] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, synaptic/click on pacakge/properties/dependencies-tab/set-dependend packages
[03:43] <genii> hacked_kernel: You can exit vipw with :wq
[03:43] <genii> hacked_kernel: If you mess up the edit use :q! to exit without modifying file
[03:43] <floresc7> help please!
[03:43] <genii> work, AFK
[03:44] <recon> !ask | floresc7
[03:44] <ubotu> floresc7: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:44] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: Yes, I see, but that seems to list all packages, not just those installed (which is what I need)
[03:44] <predaeus> floresc7, I boot using SATA.
[03:44] <warbler> !ask
[03:44] <floresc7> thanks!
[03:44] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, ah ok.
[03:44] <drhumanist> warbler:
[03:44] <steel_lady> warbler, looks like ubuntu has problem handling card reader. whan I put it to USB reader it saves the file but it throws a bunch of strange garbage on it
[03:44] <drhumanist> i am switching to the other computer
[03:44] <warbler> drhumanist: k
[03:45] <drhumanist> see you in a minute
[03:45] <floresc7> predaeus: did you have any issues setting it up the first time?
[03:45] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: I found another way.  I did an apt-get -s remove foobar and it listed the immediate direct dependencies.  I'll have to recurse to get them all, but it should work
[03:45] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, scan the "man apt-get" or "man dpgk" to look for info, I guess synaptic just uses the underlying tools, maybe there is an option to exlude not installed packages on that output.
[03:45] <praet> tatters: should comment that out in your /etc/modules file
[03:45] <warbler> steel_lady: try to find the right driver - it will work :)
[03:45] <GNine> got a double buffered visual.  xlib is not registering GLX  on display 0.0
[03:46] <jkraid> Hi guys, i'm having some troubles with ubuntu feisty 7.04 + mdadm/device-mapper. Details are at: http://pastebin.com/mfe92816. basically after a reboot, disks of one controller (part of same raid set) misbehave - need to force order
[03:46] <GNine> now i got some reading to do
[03:46] <tatters> praet: thnx
[03:46] <drhumanist2> hi warbler
[03:46] <predaeus> floresc7, nah. Just grub messing up harddrive identities.
[03:46] <praet> brad_: looking for the card driver
[03:46] <drhumanist2> i am booting Ubuntu in recovery mode please wait
[03:46] <warbler> steel_lady: aaah - a thought - how new is the card?
[03:46] <hacked_kernel> genii, I found root has 0:0 not 1000:1000
[03:46] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, ah ok, nice.
[03:46] <steel_lady> warbler, how do I do that? and what can I do to format the other card that is not recognized by the system not even in gparted?
[03:47] <warbler> how many drhumanists are there? hehe
[03:47] <genii> hacked_kernel: There should be 2 users of "root" if you created your first user also with that name
[03:47] <steel_lady> warbler, it is not SDHC
[03:47] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: what does "glxinfo | grep OpenGL" report?
[03:47] <drhumanist2> this is me again ;)
[03:47] <Gyuszk> Hi guys, can you help? I've got 2 laptops, I swapped the optical units between them, but the laptops bios cant see the new drive
[03:47] <hacked_kernel> genii, I changed 0:0 to 1000:1000 and now I can't access sudo vipw
[03:48] <floresc7> predaeus: I don't know if it really matters, but I have Fiesty running perfectly on one computer (that has PATA), but I am trying to DRBL boot on another that has SATA (which I am trying to mount) but it is not mounting
[03:48] <drhumanist2> warbler: i started the xserver application... now listening to your commands :)
[03:48] <genii> hacked_kernel: There should be 2 users with name root if you created one with that name as default
[03:48] <HelloMeow> Hello, I would like help installing a printer. I have never done so on a linux OS
[03:48] <ccooke> HelloMeow: What printer is it?
[03:48] <HelloMeow> It is a USB printer
[03:48] <ccooke> okay.
[03:48] <drhumanist2> warbler u there?
[03:48] <HelloMeow> A Canon PIXMA ip 2200
[03:48] <ccooke> try plugging it in?
[03:49] <HelloMeow> Yes, it is
[03:49] <warbler> steel_lady: my experience is limited here - apart from the forums, google , or reposting your prob I can't offer more suggestions - apologies
[03:49] <GNine> IntuitiveNipple, extension glx missing on display 0.0   -  couldnt find RGB visual
[03:49] <drhumanist2> warbler? :)
[03:50] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, that sounds so familiar
[03:50] <warbler> drhumanist2: you look like drhumanist
[03:50] <predaeus> floresc7, hm, sorry I am not experienced with DRBL, what does it report as an error?
[03:50] <drhumanist2> yes i am dr.humanist!!!
[03:50] <ccooke> HelloMeow: Okay. You're using Ubuntu Feisty (7.04), yes?
[03:50] <warbler> hehe :)
[03:50] <drhumanist2> just the machine didnt let me take that nick this time :)
[03:50] <genii> hacked_kernel: Due to your inability to follow instructions you may now have locked yourself entirely from your system
[03:50] <predaeus> GNine, have you enabled the nvidia driver in your xorg.conf?
[03:50] <warbler> k
[03:50] <GNine> yes
[03:50] <HelloMeow> ccooke: No, xubuntu.
[03:50] <drhumanist2> so i am waiting with xserver open.....
[03:50] <GNine> using gnome right now
[03:51] <ccooke> HelloMeow: I'm afraid I don't run that, so I may not be able to help you
[03:51] <brad_> praet: my driver version is r8169
[03:51] <ycmarvin> is there am open source software that works like Visual Basic
[03:51] <warbler> drhumanist2: where which are you at?
[03:51] <tatters> praet: if this right file I have no v4 module   http://pastebin.com/m7200a694
[03:51] <ccooke> HelloMeow: I don't know what the printer configuration tool for xfce is, unfortunately
[03:51] <hacked_kernel> genii, i can open /etc/passwd but i can't write to it, there is only on root in the file
[03:51] <predaeus> GNine, do you have a 'Load "glx"' in your xorg.conf?
[03:51] <drhumanist2> i am at the very first window: asking X server driver to choose: there is only nv option i guess?
[03:52] <drhumanist2> lets do it step by step this time....
[03:52] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: what is reported from " grep -i 'glx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log "
[03:52] <predaeus> HelloMeow, join #xubuntu or #xfce too
[03:52] <genii> hacked_kernel: You just changed the root user's user id and group id
[03:52] <super-6-1> quick question how do i mount a iso?
[03:52] <warbler> drhumanist2: look for nvidia - that is why the last time had probs - yes
[03:53] <drhumanist2> there is NO NVIDIA!!
[03:53] <predaeus> super-6-1, something like "mount -o loop my.iso" I think, might need to add another option.
[03:53] <hacked_kernel> genii, do you have any ideas?
[03:53] <super-6-1> ok
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow: Two links that should help you
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow:
[03:53] <predaeus> super-6-1, something like "mount -o loop my.iso /my/mount/point" I think, might need to add another option.
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersCanon
[03:53] <HelloMeow> Thanks ccooke!
[03:53] <super-6-1> is it sudo mount -o loop -t (name).iso
[03:53] <genii> hacked_kernel: Unfortunately even booting now to recovery kernel will not be useful.
[03:54] <cosmodad> super-6-1: add the filesystem too, most likely -t iso9660
[03:54] <ccooke> HelloMeow: ... damn. One of the pages has been removed
[03:54] <steel_lady> warbler, I already have a book of unsolved ubuntu problems
[03:54] <warbler> drhumanist2: get a shorter name & choose vesa - only thing is to reload the correct drivers?
[03:54] <super-6-1> ok
[03:54] <super-6-1> thanks
[03:54] <genii> hacked_kernel: You will need to boot to the livecd and then modify the system from that.
[03:54] <anakao> hi all, how many ram to use compiz fusion?
[03:54] <GNine> predaeus, glx is loaded on bootup

[03:54] <ccooke> HelloMeow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/CanonPrinters/CanonPixmaIP2200
[03:54] <genii> hacked_kernel: That, or just reinstall if you haven't done much to the system yet
[03:54] <drhum> is this short enough warbler?
[03:54] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: Does " cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | awk '$0 ~ /Load/ {print $0}'" show ' Load "glx"  ' ?
[03:55] <ccooke> HelloMeow: Look at thatr link - it should be everything you need. It certainly claims to be :-)
[03:55] <predaeus> GNine, does "glxinfo | grep vendor" report NVIDIA in all 3 lines of output?
[03:55] <drhum> okay i chose vesa... and going on
[03:55] <taffy-nay_> anakao: 512 mb does me by
[03:55] <hacked_kernel> genii, should I change 1000:1000 to 0:0 again from the live cd ?
[03:55] <HelloMeow> Thanks alot, ccooke. This definitely helps
[03:55] <warbler> steel_lady: I started without even knowing about chat but got there & gave up windows years ago - you can do it- reading will be a common past time tho!
[03:56] <drhum> it asks for the video card's bus identifier.... i will leave it unchanged: PCI:1:0:0 ?
[03:56] <ccooke> HelloMeow: No problem
[03:56] <warbler> drtum: yaaaaaa!
[03:56] <genii> hacked_kernel: It is not so simple now. You will not be able to run vipw from the livecd onto the old system. we wiull need to directly edit a file
[03:56] <anakao> taffy-nay: thx
[03:56] <IntuitiveNipple> predaeus: He doesn't get a result from glxinfo - he gets " extension glx missing on display 0.0   -  couldnt find RGB visual" which points to glx not being loaded, or having a problem
[03:56] <predaeus> IntuitiveNipple, ic thanks for the info.
[03:56] <drhum> it asks "use framebuffer device interface"? i did that but it crashed so... i will choose no?
[03:57] <taffy-nay_> anakao: mp
[03:57] <taffy-nay_> *np
[03:57] <PureEvilGeek> whats the difficulty level of joining a ubuntu desktop to an AD domain? and are there any features that will be missing?
[03:57] <praet> brad_: try this: lsmod | grep r8169
[03:57] <steel_lady> warbler, sometimes it is not just that I am new, it is that there are many difficult problems unresolved. there are some major bugs that are not letting me install programs or  update to feisty and I can not reinstall the system every time it snaps
[03:57] <drhum> autodetect keyboard layout = no
[03:57] <drhum> XKB rule set to use: xorg
[03:58] <RadicalME> how to install cdstatus (downloaded the gzipped file from sourceforge.org, and unzipped to /home/user/cdstatus)
[03:58] <praet> tatters: thats the right file.
[03:58] <drhum> pc105 as the keyboard model= is this ok?
[03:58] <warbler> steel_lady: upgrade to feisty is very recommended - glad to give the very basic instructions to help.
[03:58] <predaeus> GNine, what nvidia card do you run and what drivers have you installed?
[03:59] <drhum> warbler...
[03:59] <drhum> it is even asking my mouse protocol.... how the hell i know*?
[03:59] <brad_> praet: that displays the following "r8169 32392 0"
[03:59] <IntuitiveNipple> predaeus: We're still awaiting his reply to that... so far all he says is "nvidia" and "glx". He seems to lack precision in answering :)
[03:59] <warbler> drtum: yep still reading - was going to say listening... I'm here
[04:00] <drhum> ImPS/2 or ExplorerPS/2?
[04:00] <tatters> praet: I new to linux my TV card is being detected fine and works as long as I use "xawtv -nodga" it seems the major problem is my webcam causing the error when running xawtv -hwscan, as I have no v4l module to comment out do you have any other idea/suggestion that might be causing this problem
[04:00] <warbler> drtum: mouse is 3 button
[04:00] <GNine> i take it there is no standard solution.  ill do some reading and figure it out myself.  thank you for your cooperation. i have the jumpstart i wanted
[04:00] <drhum> yes ok
[04:00] <warbler> drtum: nick helps
[04:01] <drhum> warbler: it asks which modules to enable.... i will enable ALL, ok?
[04:01] <predaeus> IntuitiveNipple, yup, but I guess that it all boils down to being the wrong drivers. He/she would just not admit the mistake.
[04:01] <warbler> modules for...
[04:01] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: The solution is to install the nvidia drivers correctly and ensure your xorg.conf is correct, by looking at the Ubuntu Wiki guides
[04:01] <rafaelscj> my laptop don't turn back after stand by, how do I fix it?
[04:01] <warbler> drtum: modules for...
[04:01] <genii> hacked_kernel: In this case it would just be much simpler to tell you to reinstall the system, and not to use "root" as the first username you create. Something sane like "user" would be good.
[04:01] <praet> tatters: not really sure.
[04:01] <drhum> warbler: X.Org server modules that should be loaded by default: bitmap, dbe, ddc, dri, extmod....
[04:01] <mvip> has anyone managed to configure Wine to use the buil-in native PostScript driver? (not cups)
[04:01] <smallfoot-> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgCtrlAltBackspace
[04:01] <IntuitiveNipple> predaeus: Indeed, it sounds that way
[04:02] <smallfoot-> i heard you will remove ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:02] <smallfoot-> why not just change it to ctrl+alt+shift+backspace? nobody will press that by accident
[04:02] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, tried it all,, still no joy :( i don't know what to do now..
[04:02] <drhum> warbler?
[04:02] <praet> brad_: what does sudo ethtool eth0  return?
[04:02] <gordonjcp> The functionality provided by Ctrl-Alt-Backspace should rarely be needed, and if it is then the same function can be executed from a console.
[04:03] <drhum> warbler: X.Org server modules that should be loaded by default: bitmap, dbe, ddc, dri, extmod....
[04:03] <gordonjcp> EHHNNNT EHHNNNT EHHNNNT
[04:03] <warbler> drtum: some will be selected. Can select more if you want but that never works for me - I suspect the ones checked are the ones supported
[04:03] <GNine> could i be able to play DVDs if the drivers were incorrectly installed?
[04:03] <gordonjcp> WARNING - BONEHEADED ASSUMPTION
[04:03] <predaeus> smallfoot-, I bet you will be able to re-enable that functionality if you need to.
[04:03] <gordonjcp> the main reason why you'd use CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE is because you can't get a shell working
[04:03] <drhum> but all are checked now...
[04:03] <gordonjcp> or indeed any other X app
[04:04] <Davy_Jones> is there a paltalk client for ubuntu?
[04:04] <IntuitiveNipple> gordonjcp: In that case you'd use Ctrl+Alt+SysReq+K then!
[04:04] <rafaelscj> I can't turn my laptop back after stand by, How do I fix it?
[04:04] <praet> brad_: try 'ifconfig -a'
[04:04] <lee_p> i am building a custom live cd + installer for a school project::: ubiquity is hanging on step 6 and will not install is there some thing i am missing??
[04:04] <gordonjcp> IntuitiveNipple: yeah, that's a great idea
[04:04] <warbler> steel_lady: gksu update-manager-c in terminal to upgrade to feisty
[04:04] <Davy_Jones> !paltalk
[04:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about paltalk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:04] <gordonjcp> IntuitiveNipple: break well-documented behaviour in favour of some random thing
[04:05] <praet> brad_: if a device name shows up (like eth0) then the linux driver is loaded. use ifconfig eth0 to activate it
[04:05] <Davy_Jones> IntuitiveNipple: o_O is that key combination real?
[04:05] <drhum> anyhow, i finished.... rebooting....
[04:05] <Davy_Jones> IntuitiveNipple: cuz i would need my foot too do it
[04:05] <kekk> MythTV installed some windows fonts and uninstalling mythtv kept them I think. how to remove those ugly fonts?
[04:05] <gordonjcp> CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE doesn't do anything in XP
[04:05] <viktor_> i can't get 60Hz at 1280x1024 i only get 54Hz my nvidia driver is correlctly installed any help ?
[04:05] <praet> kekk: fonts should be in /usr/share/fonts
[04:06] <gordonjcp> so it's unlikely that people are going to hit it "accidentally"
[04:06] <kekk> thanks praet
[04:06] <IntuitiveNipple> Davy_Jones: There's a whole bunch of SysReq key sequences :)
[04:06] <GNine> viktor, i run the same resolution on nvidia-glx ..
[04:06] <GNine> at 60hz
[04:06] <NET||abuse> GOd this sucks,, Some one please help me fix my flash sound? Please??? I've tried installing from package, installing the 2 files into plugins from tarball, tried using alsa-oss, tried making links in /usr/lib/flashplugin/ ,,, anything else i can try?
[04:07] <NET||abuse> I've also tried gnash,
[04:07] <viktor_> GNine, in resolution switcher i only have 50,54 no 60
[04:07] <warbler> drtum:nick
[04:07] <Davy_Jones> IntuitiveNipple: what does that combination do again?
[04:07] <viktor_> GNine, at 54 picture is unstable
[04:07] <IntuitiveNipple> viktor_: Is it a flat-panel or a CRT ?
[04:07] <steel_lady> warbler, sometimes it is not just that I am new, it is that there are many difficult problems unresolved. there are some major bugs that are not letting me install programs or  update to feisty and I can not reinstall the system every time it snaps
[04:07] <NET||abuse> i Have to get flash sound back or i'll just be well miffed off ,, so much so as to venture into doing all my browsing through a windows virtual machine.. and how sucky would that be.
[04:07] <IntuitiveNipple> Davy_Jones: It's the SAK sequence
[04:07] <viktor_> IntuitiveNipple, Fujitsu Siemens H19-1 LCD
[04:08] <GNine> my monitor can support that natively.. can yours?
[04:08] <steel_lady> warbler, it says update-manager-c: command not found
[04:08] <predaeus> viktor_, you could try to change the resolution setting in xorg.conf to 1280x1024_60 if you know what you are doing, as always make backups of system config files and read up on them.
[04:08] <Davy_Jones> IntuitiveNipple: i did it out of stupidity and my desktop icons disappeared
[04:08] <smallfoot-> 60 ghz sucks, use 100 hz
[04:08] <smallfoot-> 60 hz*
[04:08] <warbler> steel_lady: do you want to update to feisty - it's recommended for better support
[04:08] <GNine> matter-of-fact, i couldnt choose 54hz even if i wanted to..
[04:08] <smallfoot-> 60 hz flicker like a bitch
[04:08] <rafaelscj> I can't turn my laptop back after stand by, what should I do?

[04:09] <trypglyph> @seen PFA
[04:09] <GNine> 60hz is default for most monitor types , specially LCD.. running 100hz is a lil out of line
[04:10] <hacked_kernel> genii, bad news, this system is virtual on xen so i can't use the live cd
[04:10] <smallfoot-> they should make LCD with 100 hz too
[04:10] <smallfoot-> heck, make them 1000 hz
[04:10] <smallfoot-> 60 hz is old tech, its 1890 when electricity invented lol
[04:10] <RadicalME> umm i need help guys.. i wanna re-record some mp3 files to ogg or FLAC files.. what program should i use?
[04:10] <VSpike> 60Hz is fine on an LCD. but painful on CRT
[04:11] <genii> hacked_kernel: Well, sory then. You will have to reinstall.
[04:11] <trypglyph> that's because an LCD doesn't have a physical refresh rate
[04:11] <trypglyph> it is constant.
[04:11] <smallfoot-> RadicalME, transcoding sucks, dont encode from a lossy format to another, and dont encode from a lossy format to a lossless
[04:11] <genii> hacked_kernel: Please learn from this.
[04:11] <steel_lady> warbler, of course but it ignores it
[04:11] <trypglyph> anything below 70hz on a CRT will make you get headaches.
[04:11] <GNine> yah.. the half life of your monitor just went down 50% running that high
[04:11] <warbler> steel_lady: min
[04:12] <RadicalME> can rythmbox play mp3 then?
[04:12] <hacked_kernel> genii, Its a hug lesson, unfortunately i can't reinstall the system it holds important data in my company
[04:12] <smallfoot-> think so
[04:12] <VSpike> RadicalME: there is a program to do just what you want - read about it somewhere recently, but can't remember where.. let me look
[04:12] <smallfoot-> RadicalME, encode from CD to OGG or FLAC is good :)
[04:12] <praet> RadicalME: install the gtstreamer plugin for the codec
[04:12] <smallfoot-> RadicalME, but encode from CD to MP3 then to Ogg of FLAC is dumb
[04:12] <kdub432> RadicalME: use vlc. the command vlc -vvv file.mp3 --sout '#transcode{acodec=ogg}:std{access=file, mux=ts, dst="/home/user/file.ogg"}' should work (if memory serves)
[04:12] <mnk> k

[04:13] <RadicalME> now thats cool.. it can play mp3
[04:13] <mnk> hello all - how can i find out a package version using apt-get pls?
[04:13] <hacked_kernel> genii, what do you think of mounting that img and editing the passwd file?

[04:13] <GNine> GNine owns 4 gigs of music in OGG
[04:14] <praet> brad_: are you getting an ip address from your router / isp?
[04:14] <warbler> steel_lady: I couldn't either - I got a dbus error - you got no error
[04:14] <Davy_Jones> i got a friend of mine who strongly believed that taking a low-quality real player file and converting it to a high-bit-rate mp3 file improves its quality
[04:14] <mnk> hello all - how can i find out a package version using apt-get pls?
[04:14] <warbler> *?
[04:14] <brad_> my router is setup as a DHCP server
[04:14] <kdub432> haha, Davy_Jones
[04:14] <sipior> Davy_Jones: tell him he needs gold-plated connectors for that to work :-)
[04:14] <wolferine> mnk aptitude search key_word
[04:14] <brad_> praet: so...
[04:14] <praet> brad_: right click the gnome panel network icon and click connection properties

[04:15] <ubotu> jan_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:15] <GNine> i also found out that a 128 bit mp3 and a 192 bit OGG are roughly the same size
[04:15] <Polysics> hi-fi is a tricky subject
[04:15] <warbler> drhum:?
[04:15] <Polysics> i've come to the conclusion most of it is religion

[04:16] <elkbuntu> JimQode, how far up do i need to read?
[04:16] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: how important is filesize?
[04:17] <JimQode> sipior, elkbuntu really sorry for bothering, it was a mistake.
[04:17] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: i would think that 128cbr would be smaller than a 192cbr file in either mp3, ogg, or any other
[04:17] <steel_lady> warbler. so I can not update my system, it refuses installing programs but I can not run it over. will there be chance to make it up in the future or it will stay this way?
[04:17] <elkbuntu> JimQode, ok, just remember that the ops call is for emergencies only
[04:17] <brad_> praet: I dont see a connections properties option
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks anyway guys...
[04:18] <GNine> file size is not the issue.. quality is .. the higher the bit rate the larger the end file.  so, you get more quality on OGG with the same file size as an mp3
[04:18] <ljg> ?
[04:18] <praet> brad_: ok in a terminal, type  'ifconfig -a |less'
[04:18] <VSpike> RadicalME: http://box.zapto.org/software/dirogg.php is one example, but I don't think it was the one I was looking for
[04:18] <warbler> steel_lady: I think that time of day is the issue - could  be wrong - no reason not to be able to upgrade - let me check for alternates
[04:18] <RadicalME> o.o my rythmbox playlist totaly f****d up..
[04:19] <VSpike> RadicalME: http://freshmeat.net/search/?q=convert%20ogg%20mp3
[04:19] <GNine> in other words, a 4mb ogg can have a higher quality than a same size mp3
[04:19] <pawan> hi
[04:19] <RadicalME> why doesnt this thing remove stuff from my rythmbox library.. o.o
[04:20] <boomh4u3r> Does anyone know if there is a Steam client available?
[04:20] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: yes i understand how it works. but you reported that a 128bit mp3 and the 192bit ogg are the same size...cannot be cbr then
[04:20] <RadicalME> boomh4u3r: i dont think so :P
[04:20] <boomh4u3r> RadicalME, damn (:
[04:20] <brad_> praet: OK
[04:20] <predaeus> boomh4u3r, I think steam runs fine under wine though.
[04:20] <GNine> i said roughly the same size.. i speak in proportional (relative) terms
[04:20] <Bakefy> Is there a way I can change the apsect ratios avaliable with the terminal server client?
[04:21] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, oh I'm new to linux..whats wine?
[04:21] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, lol
[04:21] <predaeus> !wine | boomh4u3r
[04:21] <steel_lady> warbler, I am living with thet problem for a month now
[04:21] <ubotu> boomh4u3r: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:21] <Davy_Jones> wine is something you have to consume after you use linux :P
[04:21] <RadicalME> how yo remove songs from your LIBRARY in rythmbox?
[04:21] <smallfoot-> GnarlyBob, you do 128bit mp3 convert to 192bit ogg? you know nothing about what youre doing
[04:21] <boomh4u3r> lol
[04:21] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, thx :)
[04:22] <Davy_Jones> RadicalME: delete key?
[04:22] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: if the items were encoded using a constant bit rate, a 128cbr mp3 is the same size as a 128cbr ogg vorbis
[04:22] <RadicalME> Davy_Jones, doesnt work
[04:22] <warbler> steel_lady: found a site to help - http://muffinresearch.co.uk/archives/2007/05/15/parallels-tip-upgrading-to-ubuntu-feisty-from-edgy/
[04:22] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, is this hard to set up or run?
[04:22] <GNine> suit yourself..  am not talking about cbr
[04:23] <RadicalME> oh i just saw that the shortcut to edit:remove is gone o.o
[04:23] <Davy_Jones> RadicalME: don't know.. why do you need a program to organize your music... i just put the albums in separate folders
[04:23] <mnk> can anyone pls tell me how to do a pure remote ubuntu server install? ie without a boot disk / cd rom?
[04:23] <predaeus> boomh4u3r, no, but I did not venture far into the land of wine. But I often heard that people are playing Half-life2 under wine and that Steam works too.
[04:23] <Davy_Jones> not so hard
[04:23] <brad_> praet: Yep what am i looking for?
[04:23] <mnk> or point me to a url pls?
[04:23] <RadicalME> i did that too.. but i like to have the albums sorted in my library too
[04:24] <RadicalME> but somehow nellyfurtados loose screwed up and changed into 2 albums..
[04:24] <GNine> however.. they still shouldnt be the same size
[04:24] <GNine> :-P
[04:24] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, cool.Well than I'll check it out..thanks again
[04:24] <predaeus> boomh4u3r, there is a software compatiblity table on the wine site. There you will see what programs are expected to run fine.
[04:24] <hacked_kernel> genii, you there
[04:24] <boblucen> dfg
[04:24] <boomh4u3r> predaeus, k thx

[04:24] <boblucen> bye
[04:25] <GNine> maybe i hacked a way of getting different result on my end, WaltzingAlong
[04:25] <mohamed_afk> hi, i install ltsp server and when i boot from another a client i got this error PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout anyone can help ?
[04:25] <GNine> heh
[04:25] <Davy_Jones> RadicalME: i'm sure removing a file from a library isn't that hard.. did you try right-click?
[04:25] <Davy_Jones> RadicalME: if it isn't that simple, screw rythmbox
[04:25] <WaltzingAlong> WaltzingAlong: it is possible, no doubt, but using average bitrate or nominal bitrate
[04:25] <RadicalME> its gone already :P
[04:25] <arran> sup fans
[04:25] <Davy_Jones> good
[04:26] <RadicalME> you just cant right click albums
[04:26] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: but you already claimed that size was not so important. so can you tell the difference in quality? and were you going from original source -> vorbis or converting from lossy mp3 to vorbis?
[04:26] <arran> whats the best ssh password cracker??
[04:26] <arran> anyone know?
[04:26] <GNine> i like OGG.  i use mp3 only cuz my car cd player dont accept ogg

[04:27] <steel_lady> warbler, my problem is that when i start to upgrade according to oficial instructions, it comes to the point where it says: unable to fetch...

[04:28] <mnk> can anyone pls tell me how to do a pure remote ubuntu server install? ie without a boot disk / cd rom?
[04:28] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: what was the topic? 128cbr mp3 vs 192cbr ogg vorbis?
[04:28] <Davy_Jones> arran: i don't think you will find help about CRACKING here
[04:28] <marmer> hy all
[04:28] <GNine> that was MY topic   lol
[04:28] <arran> wheres a good place?
[04:28] <arran> Davy?
[04:28] <GNine> and i succesfully did that
[04:29] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: :) and which point did you want  to make? just about the sizes?
[04:29] <arran> whats the best ssh password cracker??
[04:29] <GNine> sound difference is not noticeable in great extent but it does have a nicer sound definition
[04:29] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: get the right cd
[04:30] <mnk> WaltzingAlong: what do u mean?
[04:30] <Davy_Jones> arran: probably #hack or #politics
[04:30] <RadicalME> i think arran is feeling quite ignored by now :P
[04:30] <ubuntu_> p
[04:30] <HLM> arran: try your local police department  ;-)
[04:30] <mnk> WaltzingAlong: how would i boot into the installer and then where would i put the cd iso?
[04:30] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: i mean the alternate cd or the server cd
[04:30] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: as opposed to the livecd
[04:30] <warbler> steel_lady: I lost a bittorrent for gutsy for 4 hours. The servers get busy. Leave it till much later & let it go overnight
[04:30] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: as opposed to the livecd or desktop one
[04:30] <marmer> i've a problem with my new usb drive samsung yp-u3
[04:31] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: have you tried speex for talk audio?
[04:31] <mnk> WaltzingAlong: redhat have a boot disk that u can boot off that image - then it allows u to do an ftp install - can ubuntu installer do that too?
[04:31] <ubuntu_> opa
[04:31] <GNine> negative
[04:31] <marmer> where i can find a good guide for using it on 7.04?
[04:31] <WaltzingAlong> GNine: you may be very impressed with the filesizes then of appropriate audio
[04:31] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: there are several guides for booting, for example, to computers without cdrom drives
[04:32] <GNine> what do you mean by appropriate?  sound like proprietary
[04:32] <GNine> lol
[04:32] <mnk> WaltzingAlong: do u know of a good one? :)
[04:32] <Davy_Jones> marmer: try googling linux flash howto
[04:33] <WaltzingAlong> Davy_Jones: unfortunately using google does not work for everyone
[04:33] <Dougie> how do i scan for wireless networks? I manually enter mine but it won't connect.
[04:33] <WaltzingAlong> Davy_Jones: most of the issue though is that 'everyone' fails to use it
[04:33] <steel_lady> warbler, why do I get this: Failed to fetch http://www.elisanet.fi/mlind/ubuntu/dists/edgy/fonts/binary-i386/Packages.gz 403 Forbidden
[04:33] <GNine> a shame, reading doesnt work for everyone
[04:33] <GNine> lol
[04:33] <WaltzingAlong> Dougie: iwlist eth1 scanning
[04:33] <Davy_Jones> WaltzingAlong: :)
[04:33] <WaltzingAlong> :D
[04:33] <DjViper> Dougie: iwlist eth* scan
[04:33] <DjViper> or just iwlist scan
[04:34] <Dougie> no scan results
[04:34] <mnk> thanks WaltzingAlong
[04:34] <Dougie> does that mean my wireless card is not working correctly?
[04:34] <DjViper> Dougie: is it on? :)
[04:34] <Dougie> yeah its internal
[04:34] <KevinOoO> gnine i can now connect to the remote server
[04:35] <Dougie> desktop internal
[04:35] <WaltzingAlong> mnk: welcome
[04:35] <DjViper> Dougie: hmm is it enabled in bios?
[04:35] <GNine> good deal.  i take it you still dont have a ping on any other machine
[04:35] <drhum> warbler: it just doesn't work
[04:35] <DjViper> Dougie: which chip?
[04:35] <Dougie> yeah its not onboard lol its a pci card
[04:35] <Dougie> broadcom
[04:35] <KevinOoO> gnine i can ping the router and i can ping the machine
[04:35] <drhum> warbler: i think i will reinstall and...... consider changing the distro
[04:36] <steel_lady> warbler, I think I have authentication problem?
[04:36] <DjViper> Dougie: which driver are you using?
[04:36] <Dougie> i didn't install one
[04:36] <DjViper> hm ok
[04:36] <Dougie> it seemed to detect something it self durring install because i have the wireless stuff in networking
[04:36] <GNine> so .. the network is up.. can you see the puters on the network?
[04:36] <WaltzingAlong> drhum: ok
[04:36] <Dougie> maybe it did not install anything though
[04:36] <smallfoot-> Windows vista has encryption and Mac OS X has FileVault, please make encryption for linux!!
[04:36] <drhum> warbler: so i declare Nvidia Geforce 7600 is INCOMPATIBLE WITH UBUNTU :(
[04:36] <WaltzingAlong> drhum: i thought about installing a new brain in my head but i do not have enough upgrade credits for that
[04:36] <smallfoot-> encryption for my porno!
[04:36] <smallfoot-> ENCRYPTION PLEASE
[04:36] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-: it exists
[04:37] <smallfoot-> encryption for my secret stufsf
[04:37] <smallfoot-> WaltzingAlong, its not widely used, and needs configuring and tricky stuff, i dont want to mess with config files
[04:37] <DjViper> Dougie: okay, check to see if you have either bcm driver or ndiswrapper installed (driver)
[04:37] <annihilus> anyone know of a good program for recording the sounds form the sound card
[04:37] <Dougie> DjViper, yeah it did. says Broadcom Corporation BCM4306
[04:37] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-: ok so you want something other than linux support for encrypted filesystems
[04:37] <Dougie> DjViper, thats what it says in hardware information
[04:38] <warbler> drhum: many have that card & usability - the forums might offer more - but your decision... lol
[04:38] <steel_lady> warbler, I changed from the main server to server in australia and now it looks like working
[04:38] <WaltzingAlong> Dougie: so maybe you would use the bcm43xx driver?
[04:38] <KevinOoO> gnine, i assume so, im on a vista machine right now and i can ping my server as well as connect to it via putty
[04:38] <DjViper> Dougie: ok, goodie, check if you have wpa_supplicant installed (for wpa encrypted networks)
[04:38] <Dougie> DjViper, yeah it's using the bcm43xx driver right now
[04:38] <drhum> warbler: well i spent nearly a week and hours......... and looked in many forums
[04:38] <DjViper> Dougie: okay
[04:38] <steel_lady> warbler, no, again problem with the finnish server
[04:38] <drhum> can you offer one forum? - not the official ubuntu one pls :)
[04:38] <smallfoot-> WaltzingAlong, i want very easy encryption that just works, with little hassle and configuation, just works, easy
[04:38] <Lutz_Ifer> yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeha! finally!
[04:38] <Dougie> DjViper, where do i check that?
[04:39] <GNine> but the issue is to be able to do that from the ubuntu machine.
[04:39] <warbler> steel_lady: as an aussie I can only say that that is the least you should have expected! hehe :)
[04:39] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-: ok that seems like a better request. now to outline how that should work, in terms of behavior on the user's part for example...then we are getting somewhere
[04:39] <warbler> steel_lady finnish!!
[04:39] <Dougie> DjViper, when i go to manual configuration WPA is in the list so i'm guessing it is installed
[04:39] <prabs> hi guys, i have finished patching my bcm43xx, compiling the kernel 2.6.20-generic (make modules, make modules_install).. now i need to copy 'Copy the resulting module in the source directory to  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/bcm43xx' .. how do i do that? i am follwing this guide: http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=2045.0 .. any help at all please?
[04:39] <DjViper> Dougie: just type wpa_ into console and hit tab
[04:39] <steel_lady> warbler, there is some authentication problem with finnish server that holds packages and it refuses me every time
[04:40] <DjViper> okay
[04:40] <KevinOoO> GNine ...yeah

[04:40] <Dougie> wpa_action      wpa_cli         wpa_passphrase  wpa_supplicant
[04:40] <DjViper> Dougie: hmm, do you use network manager?
[04:40] <warbler> steel_lady: a check is neede - one mo
[04:40] <smallfoot-> WaltzingAlong, no thats not enoug i dont want to read a 100 page website about howto, i just want "point-and-click" and TADA! IT WORKS
[04:40] <Dougie> DjViper, yes
[04:40] <GNine> all i can say is that youre half way there now..
[04:40] <steel_lady> warbler, can you go to synaptic and tell me what do you have in repositories authentication? I have some   strange personal licence
[04:40] <mluser> anyone know of a repository with freenx for gusty?
[04:40] <KevinOoO> gnine i think that problem has something to do with my router, but not sure how to fix it
[04:40] <Dougie> DjViper, I'm pretty sure my router is setup for WEP though
[04:41] <HaYZaM> " add the $OPENH323DIR/lib directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH so youre be able using the shared libraries. " << HOW CAN I DO THIS ?
[04:41] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-:  ok :D
[04:41] <DjViper> Dougie: right click on the icon and see if wireless is enabled there
[04:41] <Dougie> DjViper, going to check though
[04:41] <Dougie> DjViper, yes it is
[04:41] <GNine> me either.. am not good at remote troubleshooting
[04:41] <drhum> so thanks for spending your time :)
[04:41] <GNine> am just another guy
[04:41] <DjViper> Dougie: are there any networks available if you leftclick on it?
[04:41] <drhum> and mine
[04:41] <KevinOoO> ok, well im gonna reboot and try it again

[04:43] <smallfoot-> WaltzingAlong, dont want type any commands and read stuff, just want to Right-Click on "Disk 1" and select "Enable encryption"
[04:43] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-: alright
[04:44] <DjViper> Dougie: hm thats weird
[04:44] <prabs> guess no help here..
[04:44] <warbler> steel_lady: the one for the cd I used to install & the ubuntu automatic signing key
[04:44] <DjViper> Dougie: are you sure it's enabled in your router?
[04:44] <steel_lady> warbler and it does not let you update either?
[04:44] <Dougie> yep
[04:44] <josh_> anyone know how to eject an ipod in amarok?
[04:45] <Dougie> DjViper, i have a laptop thats connected via wireless
[04:45] <Dougie> maybe this wireless card is dead......should probably check it in windows...
[04:46] <warbler> steel_lady: have feisty - updating to feisty - update-manager-c - won't work for me - tried that to see if it would work
[04:46] <DjViper> Dougie: do that if you can, because it should work if the driver is installed and everything is enabled heh
[04:46] <WaltzingAlong> smallfoot-: ok i do not know of a single point/click method for that at present
[04:46] <Dougie> DjViper, yeah i'll reboot and boot into windows....if it works there then I don't know whats going on?
[04:47] <DjViper> Dougie: then you should probably try the ndiswrapper driver
[04:47] <Dougie> ok
[04:47] <warbler> steel_lady: in synaptic repos there is a choice for where to get updates
[04:47] <josh_> :(
[04:47] <Dougie> DjViper, how do i switch the driver it uses?
[04:48] <warbler> steel_lady: ubuntu software - download from
[04:48] <steel_lady> I am looking at it but I don't know what to change
[04:48] <smallfoot-> WaltzingAlong, please program a single poing/click method, or tell the other guy who do that stuffs, to do it
[04:48] <DjViper> Dougie: download it or install it via synaptic, then remove the bcm43 driver and enable ndiswrapper

[04:53] <sipior> juso: sure, why would you want to use it?
[04:54] <juso> Well t started the processes, how do I stop it from respawning?
[04:54] <juso> it*
[04:54] <sipior> juso: started which processes?
[04:54] <prabs> hi guys, i have finished patching my bcm43xx, compiling the kernel 2.6.20-generic (make modules, make modules_install).. now i need to copy 'Copy the resulting module in the source directory to  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/bcm43xx' .. how do i do that? i am follwing this guide: http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=2045.0 .. any kind soul who can help at all please?
[04:55] <juso> Ok.. do you know what I mean whenI said its in iniitab and set for respawn?
[04:55] <sipior> juso: yep
[04:55] <juso> Ok so whats the confusion?
[04:55] <juso> how do I "disable" that respawn of the processes
[04:55] <juso> so it doesn't respawn it anymore..
[04:55] <sipior> juso: man inittab
[04:56] <juso> I did.. this is why I am hear because I dont understand how..
[04:56] <sipior> juso: i was curious why you wanted to play with it
[04:56] <tabularasa> is there a good doc on replacing syslogd with syslog-ng ?
[04:56] <sparrw> I have a LCD with an EloTouch USB touchscreen.  The official drivers only go up to kernel 2.6.15 with XFree, are there any unofficial drivers that I could use with newer kernels and/or X.org?
[04:56] <sipior> juso: if you don't know what it does, why are you trying to change it?
[04:56] <Venko> Is there a way I can run a program through the command-line so that it can't output sound? There's no options in the program and I'm listening to the radio at the moment.

[04:57] <sipior> juso: change the file, send init a HUP signal
[04:57] <DjViper> Dougie: hm okay, hang on
[04:57] <WaltzingAlong> prabs: the resulting module

[05:02] <WaltzingAlong> ket-warrior: man dpkg would show you the command to override the architecture. then you can install the i386 on amd64. another route would be to install a chroot where you have the 386 version
[05:02] <warbler> steel_lady: I remove through synaptic - carefully...
[05:02] <GNine> good to hear KevinOman
[05:02] <WaltzingAlong> ket-warrior: another would be to switch to closed source but open standard gizmo project or open source and open standard wengophone/openwengo
[05:03] <prabs> WaltzingAlong: i would be nice if u can tell me what a 'resulting module' woule be named in this case
[05:03] <KevinOman> gnine any idea on how to bring up my website now?
[05:03] <warbler> steel_lady: no nvidia - remove that , or ATI - those are the things I would look at
[05:03] <WaltzingAlong> prabs: yes i do not know where you were when you built it and patching the bcm43xx ... i do not know why
[05:04] <GNine> no, sorry
[05:04] <kshah> server (aka laptop) bit the bullet yesterday, hdd fail, recommendations on a sub $500 machine? where to?

[05:04] <prabs> WaltzingAlong: ah, well thanks anyway
[05:04] <ket-warrior> WaltzingAlong, I have installed the 386 on amd64 but it will not start
[05:04] <warbler> steel_lady: movies are a great space user...
[05:04] <prabs> guess im stuck now
[05:04] <GNine> busy
[05:04] <WaltzingAlong> ket-warrior: try from the terminal so you can see any errors. there probably are i386 libraries it needs
[05:04] <Ch0Hag> I'm intsalling xubuntu-* and it claims a dependency on gnome-session (among other gnome-* packages).
[05:05] <KevinOman> ok
[05:05] <Ch0Hag> Is this normal?
[05:05] <bentob0x> what's the command to check a port against a port list?
[05:05] <Ch0Hag> getent services <port|service>
[05:05] <WaltzingAlong> bentob0x: how do you mean? see which ports are open?
[05:06] <Ch0Hag> getent isn't used enough...
[05:06] <bentob0x> no just to see what port 47939 is used for WaltzingAlong
[05:06] <prabs> WaltzingAlong: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/ubuntu/wire/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20less/bcm43xx.. thats where loads of .o files are there.. are they modules by any chance?
[05:06] <WaltzingAlong> prabs: :D
[05:06] <dougie_> DJViper, ok that worked thanks :)
[05:06] <DjViper> Dougie: np :)
[05:06] <prabs> WaltzingAlong: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/ubuntu/wire/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/wirless/bcm43xx.. thats where loads of .o files are there.. are they modules by any chance?.. sorry typo
[05:07] <prabs> ah wireless!!
[05:07] <prabs> sorry
[05:07] <KevinOman> If I type in the ip address of my server, it brings up my website on this computer?? Any ideas anyone?
[05:07] <dougie_> DjViper, haha looks like someone else is having issues with same card ;)
[05:07] <Ch0Hag> So should xubuntu depend on gnome-session?
[05:07] <DjViper> Dougie: yeah lots of people have that card heh
[05:07] <slavik> bcm43xx ... an abortion, not a wifi card
[05:07] <WaltzingAlong> KevinOman: so it works as expected and you wonder why?
[05:07] <Ch0Hag> Doesn't xfce have its own session manager?
[05:08] <DjViper> lol slavik
[05:08] <prabs> WaltzingAlong: yeah of course, very kind.. here: http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=2045.0
[05:08] <dougie_> did you show him that guide?
[05:08] <super-6-1> quick question where does wine install applications at?
[05:08] <dougie_> WaltzingAlong, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990 did you try this?
[05:08] <Ch0Hag> super-6-1: ~/.wine/ IIRC
[05:08] <prabs> oh lol i thought that question was for me lol
[05:08] <super-6-1> ok
[05:09] <KevinOman> WaltzingAlong:  its not working as expected, I have a remote server connect to my router, and when I type its ip address in my browser, it brings up my website on the pc im using now
[05:09] <dougie_> ~/.wine/drive_c/program files
[05:09] <KevinOman> WaltzingAlong: so im typing 192.168.1.100 and its connecting to 192.168.1.118
[05:09] <super-6-1> where is .wine?
[05:09] <kinder> hi all, I am trying to boot from kubuntu cd copied in a partition
[05:09] <gluttony> hi, i am running ubuntu 64 bit edition on an hp laptop and i am try to have dual monitors using my home monitor, how do i go about setting this up?
[05:09] <WaltzingAlong> KevinOman: depends on the router too. the actiontec i have is dumb. all requests from inside get sent to the router's page
[05:09] <dougie_> super-6-1, hit ctrl h
[05:10] <super-6-1> ok
[05:10] <kinder> I am able to boot the kernel, but I can not start the install
[05:10] <Ch0Hag> So - xubuntu? session?
[05:10] <kinder> any suggestion?
[05:10] <dougie_> super-6-1 it'll unhide all your folders
[05:10] <super-6-1> ok
[05:10] <Ch0Hag> I think my ISP has a direct link to canonical. This is downloading bloody fast...
[05:10] <the_cyber_guy> i want to set title bar double click action
[05:10] <super-6-1> i dont see .wine
[05:10] <the_cyber_guy> from where to set it
[05:10] <super-6-1> hmm
[05:11] <Ch0Hag> super-6-1: Type nautilus ~/.wine in a terminal
[05:11] <dougie_> super-6-1, do you have wine installed?
[05:11] <Ch0Hag> Or has that shown all your hidden files and not that one?
[05:11] <Polysics> wow, the preview sure looks interesting
[05:11] <dougie_> .wine is also in your home directory
[05:11] <super-6-1> yea
[05:11] <super-6-1> hold on ill look
[05:11] <Ch0Hag> super-6-1: And have you actually run something in wine yet?
[05:11] <Polysics> i just hope they bundle some better theme than the attractive, lovely, diarrhea-colored default there is now :-)
[05:11] <sparrw> i am going to have to downgrade to ubuntu 6.06 to get a proprietary driver to work  :(

[05:14] <Ch0Hag> Well I'm sure there's a GUI find tool somewhere but I wouldn't know.

[05:14] <Pici> super-6-1: its probably in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Starcraft/
[05:15] <Ch0Hag> A curse based programme?
[05:15] <sipior> curses :)
[05:15] <Ch0Hag> Is that one coded entirely out of expletives?
[05:15] <faileas> lol
[05:15] <faileas> curses ;)
[05:15] <sipior> sounds like my programming
[05:15] <faileas> / ****ing code dosen;t ****ing work.
[05:16] <faileas> ;)
[05:16] <sipior> ByPasS: does it require a specific version of (n)curses?
[05:16] <cavedon> hi all!
[05:18] <ByPasS> version 5 yes
[05:18] <chamikal> hi
[05:19] <chamikal> packages.ubuntu.com is down ?
[05:20] <Floker> chamikal, same here
[05:20] <NET||abuse> Can i just delete ESD? or will that totally cork up my system?
[05:20] <Floker> NET||abuse, why would you want to do that?
[05:20] <technoBurn> greetings
[05:20] <NET||abuse> delete as in aptitude --purge remove libesd-alsa0
[05:21] <NET||abuse> Floker, I'm desperately desperately trying to find a way to get flash sound working again
[05:21] <Ch0Hag> Damn there's a lot of background noise in here.
[05:21] <coolbeans> Hi all.  How can I tell which ttsy/com port a PCI modem is using?  It shows up when I hit lspci but I can't figure out which serial port its using.
[05:21] <NET||abuse> i think i've added a package somewhere along the way  (about 2 months ago) that killed flash sound playback
[05:21] <technoBurn> NET||abuse, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[05:21] <NET||abuse> So i'm going through the various sound systems that are in here and trying to see what i can take out..
[05:21] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, on feisty
[05:22] <brainsick> can someone give me a pointer / entry point to start researching developing visualization plugins for rhythmbox?
[05:22] <technoBurn> did you install from source?
[05:22] <scipio> any ideas why did alt-1 stoped working in irssi? i can change to all windows except the status window which is #1.
[05:22] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, which ? alsa? no i'm using mostly jsut binaries.
[05:22] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, I think the only thing i've compiled from source right now is kiba-dock
[05:22] <_abc_> hello
[05:23] <_abc_> wow I've never been on a channel with 1165 users before ...
[05:23] <technoBurn> NET||abuse, when I installed Flash 9 from source It worked out of the box could never get it working otherwise
[05:23] <NET||abuse> :) popular distro :)
[05:23] <_abc_> are there breaks between flame fests _
[05:23] <_abc_> ? ;-)
[05:23] <ByPasS> chamikal : it is to me too
[05:23] <technoBurn> What soundcard are you running?
[05:23] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, emm one sec..
[05:23] <rafaelscj> is there a kernel to centrino laptops?
[05:24] <Floker> rafaelscj, no, is speedstepping running on your portable?
[05:24] <faileas> rafaelscj: the standard one should work
[05:24] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, using "Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)"
[05:24] <dsavall> hi
[05:24] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, I thought flash was closed source,, how'd you compile??
[05:24] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, this is flashplugin-nonfree
[05:25] <rafaelscj> Floker, It's because i can hibernate, but not stand by
[05:25] <technoBurn> NET||abuse, your right I think I did that via deb
[05:26] <steel_lady> if it tells me that I can not upgrade if I don't liberate 400MB in /usr, will it help if I empty /home ?
[05:26] <Floker> rafaelscj, well, the kernel in Gutsy will have some major improvements on Suspend, hibernate and Power Saving. i guess we will have to wait for it
[05:26] <kyja> I am getting an error from gambas
[05:26] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, ;) well there ya are then.. hmmm, ok,, for some reason i've alot of alsas modules installed.. what can i remove safely...
[05:26] <scipio> any ideas why did alt-1 stoped working in irssi? i can change to all windows except the status window which is #1.
[05:26] <rafaelscj> Floker, :(
[05:26] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, I may have gone completely nuts and installed stuff that I shouldn't have by just flying through the multimedia sectoin in synaptics ;)
[05:27] <dougie__> there we go now that I got wireless working my phone doesn't have to be next to my computer lol
[05:27] <technoBurn> try this
[05:27] <Floker> rafaelscj, there are some howtos on that issue i guess, try searching the ubuntu wiki or ask in the ubuntu forums (clearly stating every aspect of the problem) hope that helps
[05:27] <sktrdie> How do I change the ubunt icon on the top left?
[05:27] <technoBurn> NET||Abuse : sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 /usr/lib/libesd.so.1
[05:27] <steel_lady> I don't understand why is it refusing to install when I have 1.5G free
[05:27] <technoBurn> then restart firefox
[05:28] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, I have no files under /usr/lib/ that start with libesd aparently....
[05:28] <technoBurn> are you using firefox?
[05:28] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, wait no i do..
[05:28] <NET||abuse> yeh, firefox
[05:28] <seba> hi all
[05:28] <technoBurn> yea okay i was about to be really confused there ;)
[05:29] <NET||abuse> i've seen this fix, symlinks for the esd lib.. and i've done all the suggestions *(all 3 install methods on ubuntuguide.org)
[05:29] <juso> In securecrt, for some reason some servers I save, wont prompt me for abiliy to save password, and some do.  Anyone know why this is?
[05:29] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, I already have /usr/lib/libesd.so.1 symlinked to /usr/lib/libesd.so.0
[05:30] <rafaelscj> let me understand one thing: why Mobile Intel's driver isn't a "restricted-drivers" while Intel PRO/Wireless is?
[05:30] <technoBurn> ehhh not sure what the issue is then, I had to do that to get mine to work
[05:30] <sparrw> what sort of pain am i inviting by installing an old debian kernel package on an ubuntu system?
[05:30] <technoBurn> do you have sound otherwise in the systme?
[05:30] <steel_lady> ok, can somebody explain to me, the distribution of disk memory in the system, why does it need more when I have 1.5G free?
[05:30] <NET||abuse> technoBurn, yeh, I have sound otherwise, you see the weird thing is I did that symlink to get it working before, and all was well, i had flash for some time, then 2 months back it died.. i don't know why it died though :(
[05:31] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, when ubuntu uncompresses from the cd to your hdd it sonsumes at least 2 gb

[05:34] <sparrw> will i have problems having multiple ubuntu versions in my sources.list?  feisty+edgy+dapper...
[05:34] <Paddy_EIRE> CroX, ctrl+alt+f# up to 6, 7 being your current graphical x session
[05:34] <sipior> sparrw: probably
[05:35] <DARKGuy> CroX: switch to terminal (control+alt+f1), login and type "xinit -- :1" ... that'll give you X on ctrl+alt+f8, while f7 being your previos X session
[05:35] <taime1> my trash applet doesnt show me that there is any trash in it by right clicking it. there i salso no option to empty it. but when i open my trash, there is trash... what gives?

[05:35] <CroX> Ohh. :D
[05:35] <NET||abuse> Awww, he's gone :( ok,, can anyone suggest a course of action here?? flash with no sound, I've performed all the suggestions from ubuntuguid.org and even gnash, and no sound from that either, i've checked /usr/lib/libesd.so.0->1 link is there, i've tried alsa-oss fix in the firefoxrc file, I don't know whatelse i can do..
[05:35] <sparrw> with packages.ubuntu.com down, is there any easy way to get old packages?
[05:35] <CroX> Is there a space between "--" and ":1"?
[05:36] <Paddy_EIRE> appears so
[05:36] <steel_lady> Paddy_EIRE, does home counts towards the quota for ubuntu?
[05:36] <CroX> Thanks both of you! I'll try that
[05:37] <Poromenos> Xorg is giving me 95% CPU usage, how can I stop it for good?
[05:38] <dougie__> Poromenos, you want to stop xorg?
[05:38] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, lady if you make your /home directory seperate
[05:38] <Poromenos> dougie__: yes
[05:38] <Poromenos> it's a headless server
[05:38] <fsckr> how can i set the number of workspaces I want?  Everytime I reboot or restart X I have to change the workspaces back to 4.  I have put the number of workstations manually in gconf-editor but that hasn't been of any help it seems
[05:38] <dougie__> Poromenos, hmm....not sure just was making sure what you wanted :)
[05:38] <Paddy_EIRE> although ubuntu itself requires at least 2gb for the standard install with apps
[05:38] <Poromenos> dougie__: ah :P
[05:39] <dougie__> Poromenos, server doesn't need gui thats for sure
[05:39] <MrCollins> 
[05:40] <milestone> hi all

[05:40] <milestone> i cannot get pam-ldap to work on my ubuntu feisty machine
[05:40] <Poromenos> i'm thinking of just removing ubuntu-desktop...
[05:40] <milestone> is there an ubuntu based howto somewhere?
[05:40] <Paddy_EIRE> DARKGuy, how do I end any other sessions or 'terminals' I have opened from ctrl+alt+f# except for my current X F7 ofcourse
[05:40] <Dougie> Poromenos, that should work honestly. Thats all the gui and gnome and all that
[05:40] <gnomefreak> Poromenos: removing ubuntu-desktop doesnt do anything
[05:40] <gnomefreak> Dougie: nope
[05:41] <slop> why isn't build-essential included with the distro?
[05:41] <Xman> can anybody help
[05:41] <Dougie> gnomefreak, hmm well idk?
[05:41] <slop> just curious...
[05:41] <gnomefreak> !ubuntu-desktop | Dougie Poromenos
[05:41] <ubotu> Dougie Poromenos: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[05:41] <neumind> who know pascal?!

[05:42] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:42] <DARKGuy> Paddy_EIRE: if you do it on f7 it will always come back because it's associated with gdm and it will restart your login screen again
[05:42] <sipior> pascal? jesus, it's not the 80's again, is it?
[05:42] <DARKGuy> but on others you'll just kill 'em
[05:42] <caner> are there any gui's for mtp-* programs?
[05:42] <gnomefreak> Poromenos: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

[05:43] <Poromenos> Poromenos	gnomefreak: i don't want to restart it, i tried gdm stop but it started back up again for some reason
[05:43] <Poromenos> "i tried gdm stop but it started back up again for some reason"
[05:43] <gnomefreak> Poromenos: the command i gave you is to stop it not restart it
[05:44] <steel_lady> ok, is there somebody good-harted to help me to free the space for my update'
[05:44] <bigdog> install question,  I have a multiboot machine (Suse 10.3, windows xp, windows xp64, windows vista ultimate).   I ran the ubnutu workstation installer, but it did not recognize my existing LVM structure.   Is this a bug or a feature for 7.04 ?

[05:44] <web_knows> I mean, I'd like to output amarok sound through esd (eSound)
[05:44] <steel_lady> Paddy-EIRE it wants about 450MB!
[05:45] <notchNICK> guys I need help.. how do I open /etc/X11/xorg.conf  in ubuntu?  I am using virtualbox and I need to add resolution 1280x1024 in this file
[05:45] <Poromenos> notchNICK: go to a command line and type sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:45] <Poromenos> err
[05:45] <Poromenos> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:46] <caner> has anybody used creative zen vision:m with feisty?
[05:46] <caner> i couldnt make it work
[05:46] <cyanid3_> what file would i edit if i want to spoof my nic's mac address everytime at boot?
[05:46] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, ok, well you could try deleting the contents of '/var/cache/apt/archives/' that may free some space
[05:46] <brian1> When I'm starting Ubuntu I get an error page saying that /dev/sda2 contains a file system with errors, check failed. After checking it tells me there are a Duplicate or bad block in use. Then it goes to tell me /dev/sda2 Multiply-claimed block(s) in inode 7:231. It continues to tells me about 2 other blocks. Then it tells me an automatic files ysystem check (fsck) of the root file system failed. A manual fsck must be performed in maintence m
[05:46] <brian1> with the root file system mounted in read only mode. Once it was in read only and  maintenance shell was started. Then another few commands go across the screen. Then it tells be that the program 'apt-get' is not installed and I can install it by typing apt-get install apt. Though the computer cant find that command even when the computer typed apt-get install by itself. Anyone have any suggestions?
[05:47] <kakaruto> i can't wait for 7.10
[05:48] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, do you know what you are doing...
[05:48] <sipior> cyanid3_: you could make a local file in /etc/init.d that does the mac alteration. just have to ensure that it runs before the network is started. i don't *think* it would reset to the default mac, but i wouldn't swear to it
[05:48] <steel_lady> Paddy_EIRE it is empty
[05:48] <DARKGuy> Paddy_EIRE: it
[05:48] <DARKGuy> Paddy_EIRE: it's ok, your machine may vary
[05:48] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, oh, so you must have a fresh install
[05:48] <cyanid3_> ok, thanks
[05:49] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, then where is all your space... how big is your ubuntu partition
[05:49] <steel_lady> Paddy_EIRE I can not run over my system, it is for my work and I can not reinstall some programs
[05:50] <steel_lady> Paddy, where can I check it?
[05:50] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, type 'df' in term
[05:50] <xtknight> is there an easy command to view the changelog of a deb?
[05:50] <xtknight> (a deb which is already installed)
[05:51] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, System > Admin > System monitor
[05:51] <steel_lady> I have 8 giga with 1.5G free
[05:52] <steel_lady> 6.5+1.5 -- ubuntu is taking so much?
[05:52] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, then you do not need to free space for the updates then
[05:52] <djwonk> after ssh'ing to my ubuntu server from my Mac, bash interprets 'backspace' and 'delete' properly.  nano interprets 'backspace' as 'delete'.  how do I fix?
[05:52] <steel_lady> Paddy_EIRE it wants 450MB more
[05:52] <xtknight> i guess the best way is "cd /usr/share/doc; man pkgname/changelog.Debian.gz"
[05:52] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, 450 is not very much
[05:53] <Calin> A fouled up gbindadmin has reset every file on my machine to owner:none group:none .... is there a way to fix this? or a list somewhere of what should be set to what?
[05:53] <steel_lady> but where to get it?
[05:53] <web_knows> how the fstab file is generated during the installation?
[05:53] <steel_lady> Paddy, I was trying to revise to se what programs to remove and I really can not
[05:53] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, you already have 1.5gb free so 450 should not cause any problems
[05:54] <aaron_> what is the difference between compiz and beryl?  What should I load?
[05:54] <steel_lady> Paddy, it does!

[05:54] <steel_lady> The upgrade aborts now. Please free at least 434M of disk space on /usr. Empty your Garbage Bin and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.
[05:54] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[05:54] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, do you have only one partition?
[05:55] <steel_lady> no I have more
[05:55] <sipior> xtknight: bit surprising (i assumed there there was an easy way to do it), but i think your suggestion might be the only option :)
[05:55] <xtknight> sipior, i haven't looked very hard
[05:55] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, so, it's the problem
[05:55] <Span1> Hey everyone, I'm new to Ubuntu and Linux in general and I'd like to find out how to get Movie Player to show DVDs
[05:56] <sipior> xtknight: nor have i, but it doesn't look like any of the dpkg or apt- tools do this
[05:56] <faileas> !dvd
[05:56] <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
[05:56] <ahmed_> 
[05:56] <steel_lady> rafaelscj i do not understand
[05:56] <Span1> Thanks
[05:56] <xtknight> sipior, it would probably be one of the developer deb tools
[05:56] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, try 'df -hT' in a terminal
[05:56] <ahmed_> hiiiiiiiiiii
[05:56] <steel_lady> rafaelscj I can not move installed programs to the other partition
[05:56] <sipior> ahmed_: thanks, i wondered if i could display arabic fonts correctly. now i know
[05:57] <seba> ubuntu 7.04 server, on apt-get updgrade it keeps back new kernel from install, what should i do ?
[05:57] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, what partitions do you have ? (/, swap)
[05:57] <steel_lady> http://pastebin.com/m77ada09a
[05:57] <sipior> xtknight: apt-listchanges
[05:58] <xtknight> sipior, interesing.  crashes on gutsy
[05:58] <seba> ubuntu 7.04 server, on apt-get upgrade it keeps back new kernel from install, what should i do ?
[05:58] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, you have a vfat partition with loads of space
[05:58] <brian1> When I'm starting Ubuntu I get an error page saying that /dev/sda2 contains a file system with errors, check failed.

[05:58] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, you can back apt's cache up
[05:58] <djwonk> here's the line in nanorc that fixed my problem, fyi: ## Fix Backspace/Delete confusion problem.
[05:58] <djwonk> # set rebinddelete
[05:58] <xtknight> sipior, just apt-listchanges pkgname  right?
[05:58] <steel_lady>  rafaelscj  I am blonde, please step by step
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> rafaelscj, her /var/apt/cache/ is empty
[06:00] <Paddy_EIRE> rafaelscj, her /var/apt/archives' even
[06:00] <genii> Rather /var/cache/apt you mean?
[06:00] <sipior> xtknight: actually, reading the man page, it appears to do exactly what you suggested for the changelog :)
[06:00] <seba> ubuntu 7.04 server, on apt-get upgrade it keeps back new kernel from install, what should i do to get them installed ?
[06:00] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[06:00] <jiam> brian1: boot using liveCD and then fsck those unmounted partitions
[06:00] <genii> Rather /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:00] <xtknight> sipior, can you get apt-listchanges to work at all?
[06:00] <sipior> xtknight: not yet
[06:00] <Paddy_EIRE> genii, :P
[06:01] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, /var/cache/apt/archieves
[06:01] <steel_lady> rafael it is empty
[06:01] <Dougie> Hey can anyone help me here...for some reason it won't mount audio cd's
[06:01] <xtknight> sipior, now im not horrible with google or anything but wow i cant find any instructions on how to use this :p
[06:01] <Paddy_EIRE> rafaelscj,  /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:01] <floresc7> I had to leave to class earlier, anyone here know anything about DRBL?
[06:01] <sipior> xtknight: i think the status of this program may currently be "b0rked"
[06:02] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | floresc7
[06:02] <rafaelscj> steel_lady,is  /var/cache/apt/archives empty?
[06:02] <ubotu> floresc7: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:02] <xtknight> sipior, i'm going to file a bug about this
[06:02] <steel_lady> rafael, yes!
[06:02] <sipior> xtknight: hold off on that
[06:03] <Dougie> i put in a cd and it just doesn't mount. I go double click the cd drive and it says unable to mount drive possible cause is there is no media in drive. None of my audio cd's will mount at all.
[06:03] <sipior> xtknight: i think you need to invoke it on an actual deb package, not the name of the package
[06:03] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, what other data do you have on your ubuntu partition that belongs to YOU
[06:03] <floresc7> I cannot boot a DRBL client with a SATA hard drive using Feisty
[06:03] <kurosaki> seba, Try via synaptic.
[06:03] <steel_lady> Paddy, apart installed programs?
[06:03] <seba> kurosaki , i dont have GUI on server
[06:03] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, yeah apart from installed apps.. just your created content
[06:03] <marginoferror> I have about 5000 pages in 40 PDF files that I need to convert to TIFF (so I can run tesseract-ocr on them)
[06:03] <floresc7> Are there compatiblity issues with using ubuntu with SATA hard drives?
[06:03] <xtknight> sipior, well if i do this, this is all it says "Reading changelogs... Done" :p
[06:04] <genii> floresc7: Set your bios for SATA to be in IDE compatability mode
[06:04] <marginoferror> Is there a sane, automated way to do this?
[06:04] <sipior> xtknight: yeah, it assumes that you want to see the difference between a package you just grabbed and the one on your system.
[06:04] <xtknight> sipior, ok i guess this isnt much use at least for me
[06:04] <floresc7> I only have 2 modes in bios, normal and RAID
[06:04] <floresc7> tried both
[06:04] <sipior> xtknight: yeah, sadly
[06:04] <steel_lady> Paddy linux is confusing because it mounts partitions like folders, so which one is entire ubuntu partition?
[06:04] <kurosaki> seba, Ah ok. I've had this issue too. sudo apt-get upgrade -f ?
[06:04] <xtknight> sipior, wait
[06:04] <xtknight> sipior, use the -a switch
[06:04] <steel_lady> only /usr or more?
[06:04] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, /
[06:04] <seba> kurosaki , 1 min i go try
[06:04] <xtknight> sipior, e.g.  apt-listchanges -va /var/cache/apt/archives/bip_0.6.0-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[06:04] <xtknight> this works.. thx
[06:04] <kurosaki> seba, Or Aptitude might handle things better.
[06:05] <sipior> cool
[06:05] <genii> floresc7: If you have jmicron chipset you may be ok to insert the driver manually. If another chipset like Marvell or so it could be problemmatic
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, im talking about music movies documents that belong to you
[06:05] <xtknight> i still think the program needs better docs but they probably have more important things to worry about
[06:05] <steel_lady> paddy it can not be because I have more than 3G free in /home
[06:05] <seba> kurosaki , no go :/
[06:05] <bjwebb> hi
[06:05] <floresc7> genii: how can I tell which chipset I am using on the client?
[06:06] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, /use is in /
[06:06] <rafaelscj> steel_lady, usr*
[06:06] <seba> kurosaki , it keeping them from upgrade
[06:06] <Samurai_Dan> any help for XGL issue ? no answer in xgl channel
[06:06] <marginoferror> Is there any way to convert PDF to TIFF in Linux at all?
[06:06] <kurosaki> seba, Try aptitude, it's essentially synaptic in cli and seems to work better in some cases. It was a while ago it happened to me. Not 100% on what it was that fixed it, either synaptic or aptitude though.
[06:06] <genii> floresc7: look up your motherboard specs, or try lspci and see if it has some device from jmicron or marvell there
[06:06] <bjwebb> my x is broke :S
[06:07] <Samurai_Dan> Video scrambled in XGL session, looks like no horizontal sync
[06:07] <bjwebb> anyone here able to help?
[06:07] <seba> kurosaki i go try, tnx m8
[06:07] <kurosaki> seba, No sweat, hope it helps.
[06:07] <bjwebb> "unable to write to /tmp"
[06:07] <Calin> is there a way to reset all group/user settings for the entire installation? (mine are all none:none now..) like maybe using apt-get to reinstall everything...
[06:07] <steel_lady> applnk  games            include  lib64    local  sbin   src
[06:07] <steel_lady> bin     i486-linuxlibc1  lib      libexec  man    share  X11R6
[06:07] <steel_lady> in games I almost do not have anything
[06:07] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, I would at least make my root / dir at least 10gb
[06:08] <genii> floresc7: My Asus mb install cd came with source code for Marvell Sata/IDE controller but it's that catch-22 of needing a working system to compile it etc
[06:08] <steel_lady> paddy should I look in some of these folders? I did not create them!
[06:08] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, no
[06:08] <Samurai_Dan> Video scrambled in XGL session, looks like no horizontal sync
[06:09] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, they are system folders in your '/' root directory
[06:09] <genii> AFK (ordering lunch)
[06:09] <floresc7> genii: ok, I'll look up the specs real quick on the dell support site
[06:10] <warbler> steel_lady: lines 2 - 8 are the one partition
[06:10] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, you could resize your / onto some of either your vfat or /home partitions using gparted from the live cd
[06:11] <karel_> Hi, I read that 7.10 will have compiz by default and also an x manager. Now I'm wondering if these will work with my ATI X1400? (for example: for compiz I need to use xgl at this time)
[06:11] <Cyrus25801> I shared a folder in ubuntu and i am trying to access it on a windows pc. It asces me for a username and password. What username and password must I use
[06:12] <cosmodad> anyone else experiencing feisty gaim's "could not add the buddy 1" error message and know how to fix it?
[06:12] <steel_lady> the biggest folder is lib. do I need all of that?
[06:12] <Paddy_EIRE> Cyrus25801, your ubuntu login... or whatever you specified when setting up either samba or nfs
[06:12] <Paddy_EIRE> Cyrus25801, which did you use
[06:13] <steel_lady> and what is proc for?
[06:13] <warbler> steel_lady: that is a system folder - file system = tempfs
[06:13] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, yes certainly you need that
[06:13] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, you need all those
[06:13] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: samba. where can i check what user i specified. I tried my normal login and another that i created a while ago. but it doesn't want to work
[06:13] <act1v8> How can I open and create Symbian MBM (Multi BitMap) files on Ubuntu?

[06:16] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah you need samba client on your buntu box
[06:17] <Aireth> mave
[06:17] <Aireth> ce stai ?
[06:17] <Paddy_EIRE> Cyrus25801, why dont you start over and ask about file sharing and networking in general when it comes to windows and linux environments
[06:17] <aleph0> hello everyone
[06:17] <garryfre> Wow, #winehq has 181 users, that will not respond to any question, no matter what. They won't answer about the new bug in the wine that comes with Ubuntu.
[06:17] <aleph0> is there any way I can list the complete dependency of a package?
[06:18] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: i am going to read what you gave me and if i dont come right will ask again thanx
[06:18] <floresc7> ok i did run lspci but it doesnt show any devices from jmicron or marvell
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> aleph0, there is although the command eludes me at the moment
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> Cyrus25801, good good :)
[06:19] <rick__> hi.. could someone suggest me a good file explorer...

[06:22] <lgc_> What options are there to run Windows software on Ubuntu?
[06:22] <Paddy_EIRE> yes Cyrus25801
[06:23] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: let me tell what I have done. I have right clicked on a file and said share. I then picked samba
[06:23] <drhumanist> warbler: hi mate.... i fixed the problem ;)
[06:23] <Calin> lgc: wine, vmware, and cedega
[06:23] <Cyrus25801> I then picked a name that I share it with
[06:23] <warbler> drhumanist: pls tell how!
[06:23] <drhumanist> warbler: i'd like to share how :)
[06:23] <lgc_> Calin, does VMWare need wine?
[06:23] <Paddy_EIRE> lgc_, wine, crossover, parallels... also consider virtual machines
[06:23] <drhumanist> are you ready?
[06:23] <Scunizi> lgc_, no
[06:23] <drhumanist> :P
[06:23] <noelferreira> i have a package that needs to be reinstaled. however aptitude can't find a repository for it. how can i delete it?
[06:23] <warbler> k
[06:24] <drhumanist> i just used AUTOMATIX and it fixed everything....

[06:24] <steel_lady> ok, a question, does the system need that space temporaryly to unpack or it will be spent?
[06:24] <Scunizi> lgc_, VMWare will run native in Linux, Windows
[06:24] <faileas> lgc_: vmware needs windows ;)
[06:24] <karel_> does anyone have ubuntu 7.10 tribe 5?
[06:24] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: when I acess the network from my windows pc I see the linux desktop. when I double click on it to access it it asks for a usename and pass.
[06:24] <kbrooks> faileas, not true
[06:24] <floresc7> I am getting a error when trying to boot: ata1: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 seconds
[06:24] <drhumanist> the driver it found was the exact one depending on my very specific hardware settings..... the driver is TOTALLY different
[06:24] <warbler> drhumanist: must have loaded the appropriate driver
[06:24] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: I have tried everyone i have ever entered but it doesn't work
[06:24] <Scunizi> Cyrus25801, provide your uname & pass
[06:25] <elkbuntu> drhumanist, pity it did not work for the guy who lost gnome or the guy who can no longer mount stuff. do not ever recommend it
[06:25] <faileas> kbrooks: yeah, it needs windows to run windows apps though. ;) ( i was being silly... don't mind me)
[06:25] <lgc_> Paddy_EIRE, Scunizi, Calin, thanks. I'm going to try Wine. Where do I have to put the Windows executable?
[06:25] <Cyrus25801> Scunizi: I have but it doesn't take it
[06:25] <Vlet> Why would I get a ~5 second delay every time I try to ssh into my server? I'm on a gigabit switch with the server.
[06:25] <Calin> is there a way to re-install ubuntu without loosing your current settings.
[06:25] <Scunizi> lgc_, what program are you trying to run?
[06:25] <Paddy_EIRE> lgc_, #winehq
[06:25] <drhumanist> warbler: well elkbuntu my friend, i DO recommend it ;)
[06:25] <kbrooks> faileas, by that argument you make, since XChat runs on Windows, I could say "XChat needs Windows". That does not make it any more true. </rant>
[06:25] <Scunizi> Cyrus25801, it's probably a samba issue.. sorry I'm not good with samba
[06:26] <drhumanist> i am trying to fix this resolution problem for more than a week!!!

A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[06:26] <lgc_> Scunizi, a WinDig. A small application for digitizing curves.
[06:26] <noelferreira> i have a package that needs to be reinstaled. however aptitude can't find a repository for it. how can i delete it?
[06:26] <kbrooks> Vlet, you get that delay because of the encryption it does.
[06:26] <steel_lady> Paddy, do I need the space for unpacking or permanently?
[06:26] <drhumanist> elkbuntu: i do not ever care.... i could not have solved my problem without it
[06:26] <warbler> drhumanist: you got lucky - well done - enjoy ubuntuing
[06:26] <kbrooks> drhumanist, can i pm you?
[06:26] <kadambi> How to do an apt-setup on fiesty ?
[06:26] <elkbuntu> drhumanist, yes you could have. it does nothing that you could not have done for yourself
[06:27] <lgc_> faileas, you mean it'll use my Windows partition or I need a 'virtual' Windows reinstall?
[06:27] <drhumanist> what is pm?
[06:27] <kbrooks> drhumanist, private message
[06:27] <faileas> lgc_: for wine or vmware?
[06:27] <drhumanist> yes ok
[06:27] <kousotu> how do you shut down a prgram from comand line?
[06:27] <Scunizi> lgc_, do you have a copy of windows?  if so it might be easier to load VMWare and install windows and your prog. there. Especially if your prog uses propitiatory windows code like .net VB etc.
[06:27] <Paddy_EIRE> steel_lady, well you will certainly have future updates so I'd use the extra space
[06:27] <drhumanist> elkbuntu: don't take all this personal but i am really happy to have solved my resolution problem that is all
[06:28] <kousotu> vlc vanished on me
[06:28] <kadambi> How to do an apt-setup on feisty ?
[06:28] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: did you get all that
[06:28] <s1icknick> my machine mysteriously restarted overnight.  it has an uptime of 7 hour 45 minutes. the top of /var/log/messages is: Aug 28 01:50:27 nbogdanoff-wx syslogd 1.4.1#20ubuntu4: restart.   any other log files to look at ? or ideas what to check to see why this happend?
[06:28] <drhumanist> warbler: thank you btw :) your efforts are appreciated too ;)
[06:28] <lgc_> Scunizi, do I need a disk for that or just somehow clone the partition?
[06:28] <steel_lady> Paddy but I am asking you for right now, will it use up all 2G after this installation?
[06:28] <DARKGuy> hey, is it normal that when you have a laptop plugged in to AC, the battery led blinks? what does that mean? sorry for the offtopic but I'm confused o.O
[06:28] <lgc_> faileas, for wine.
[06:28] <faileas> vmware perferably SHOULD use a install on a disk image (ie, its own windows install). I tended to use a old win98 disk for it ;)
[06:28] <Scunizi> lgc_, if you are dual booting and create a VMWare install of the same windows cd you'll have "activation" issues.
[06:28] <lgc_> faileas, sorry, for VMW
[06:28] <warbler> drhumanist: lol :)
[06:29] <faileas> lgc_ wine is an API for linux, no windows partiton required
[06:29] <Paddy_EIRE> !wine | lgc
[06:29] <ubotu> lgc: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:29] <sipior> s1icknick: try "last", it should show when the machine rebooted, and possibly why
[06:29] <faileas> lgc_ you may be able to convert an install to an image, or mount a raw partition. personally i recommend a fresh install for it though
[06:29] <lgc_> Scunizi, you mean license problems?
[06:30] <kadambi> How to do an apt-setup on feisty ?
[06:30] <lgc_> faileas, from the Windows CD, you mean?
[06:30] <sipior> s1icknick: but it was most likely a power interruption
[06:30] <Pici> kadambi: What are you trying to do?
[06:30] <kadambi> pici, when I say apt-update it says error
[06:30] <faileas> lgc_: yeah. i got an... erm, old copy of win 98 for doing vmware installs, unless its an XP only programme ;)
[06:30] <s1icknick> sipior: thanks.  i have 2 lines for today but dont understand then.  ill check the man page
[06:31] <noelferreira> i have a package that needs to be reinstaled. however aptitude can't find a repository for it. how can i delete it?
[06:31] <Paddy_EIRE> kadambi, sudo apt-get update
[06:31] <s1icknick> reboot   system boot  2.6.20-16-generi Tue Aug 28 01:40 - 09:29  (07:49)
[06:31] <drhumanist> btw guys, i must say i am a believer of free software policy.... it is just that driver support is something beyond us...
[06:31] <kbrooks> apart from <insert program name here that we talked about> being a block of code, it is also non-free. you may think that this doesn't affect you directly, but it does
[06:31] <kadambi> Paddy_EIRE: yes, even then it says error - not in gzip format
[06:31] <Vlet> kbrooks: I've never had that delay with any other ubuntu systems.. this is my first time using ubuntu server though. All other ubuntu systems (except for the first time connecting) allow me to auth immediatly
[06:31] <s1icknick> sipior: any way to tell if it iwas power interruption ?
[06:31] <drhumanist> very few drivers are open-source you know
[06:32] <kbrooks> because you can't change the code, use it for any reason, etc
[06:32] <sipior> s1icknick: that would seem to indicate that the system rebooted normally. maybe somebody hit the power button?
[06:32] <bjwebb> could someone help me with x problems?
[06:32] <Scunizi> lgc_, no.. When you use the same win install cd for one partition and for installing into a VMWare image, the second one installed will want you to "activate" it. MS will then be informed of the hardware setup. When you go back to the Windows partition and do an update it will want to activate that one again. ping ponging continuously from straight install to VMW install.
[06:32] <lgc_> faileas, there's always a fresh Windows XP CD for a few $$ around....;).
[06:32] <kbrooks> that is all
[06:32] <Paddy_EIRE> drhumanist, #offtopic
[06:32] <drhumanist> ok ok :):)
[06:32] <s1icknick> i sure hope no one was here at 2am pushing buttons ...
[06:32] <Scunizi> lgc_, faileas was right.  Use a different version of windows for the VMW image.
[06:32] <faileas> lgc_: old windows is lighter (especially for a one app install). i'd switch to ROS once its down. its alpha software but they have awesome devs ;)
[06:33] <kousotu> how do you shut down a prgram from comand line?
[06:33] <sipior> s1icknick: well, check your logs for around that time, see what was going on
[06:33] <bjwebb> could someone help me with an X problem?
[06:33] <lgc_> Scunizi, and if you do a fresh install you don't have the same problem?
[06:33] <s1icknick> sipior: what other log file besides /var/log/messages ?
[06:33] <scipio> kousotu, killall programname
[06:33] <Paddy_EIRE> kousotu, killall app
[06:33] <Scunizi> lgc_, if you're not dual booting you'll be fine.
[06:33] <kousotu> so killall vlc?
[06:33] <noelferreira> please
[06:33] <noelferreira> please
[06:33] <scipio> kousotu, yes
[06:33] <noelferreira> i have a package that needs to be reinstaled. however aptitude can't find a repository for it. how can i delete it?
[06:33] <sipior> s1icknick: that gets most of it, i believe
[06:33] <Scunizi> lgc_, of course that eliminates any possibility of playing windows games.
[06:33] <kousotu> ty
[06:33] <Paddy_EIRE> kousotu, well whatever the vlc process name is
[06:34] <s1icknick> sipior : and the older things it the line i pasted in my initial question
[06:34] <neverblue> can you get pidgin from anywhere? say SoS ?
[06:34] <kousotu> vlc
[06:34] <Paddy_EIRE> kousotu, try anyway
[06:34] <kousotu> lol
[06:34] <kousotu> that's how I apt-get'd it
[06:34] <kousotu> lol
[06:34] <scipio> kousotu, you can see the exact name in "top"
[06:34] <kousotu> ??
[06:34] <lgc_> Scunizi, I gather that if you buy a legal copy of XP you can register both versions, the dual-boot one and the virtual one. Am I wrong?
[06:34] <sipior> s1icknick: the log entry just shows the reboot, if that's what you're asking
[06:34] <Scunizi> lgc_, yes...
[06:34] <kbrooks> !fixres
[06:34] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:34] <Paddy_EIRE> yes kousotu what scipio  said
[06:34] <neverblue> !pidgin
[06:34] <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.
[06:35] <scipio> kousotu, run top in terminal. it will list the runing applications
[06:35] <macafe_> HI, anyone here already running the kernel 2.6.23 ? I'm think upgrade my release because my sound (Intel Hda alc284) doens't work
[06:35] <kousotu> what is "top"?
[06:35] <s1icknick> sipior: im looking for info right before that reboot.
[06:35] <kousotu> ah..
[06:35] <Scunizi> lgc_, might be cheaper to buy a version of win2kpro off ebay since it's end of life anyway.  Also there might be a linux program that will duplicate the one you want to use.
[06:35] <kurosaki> kousotu, Most likely it's wxvlc
[06:35] <sipior> s1icknick: you might look at /var/log/dmesg, and /var/log/kern.log, but i believe they all go to messages anyway
[06:35] <sipior> s1icknick: also auth.log
[06:35] <lgc_> Scunizi, whenever (original) Windows XP goes down to $10 (which is more or less its real value) I'll think about doing that!
[06:35] <Megaqwerty> say I wanted to reinstall ubuntu, but wanted to keep all my settings, as well as the programs I have installed...how would I go about that? (I already have the home folder backed up)
[06:35] <macafe_> actually I'm using 2.6.22-10
[06:36] <neverblue> can you get pidgin from anywhere? say SoS ?
[06:36] <Paddy_EIRE> kousotu, type 'top' in a terminal
[06:36] <Scunizi> lgc_, :)
[06:36] <sipior> Megaqwerty: depends on what you hope to gain from a reinstall
[06:36] <kousotu> it shows up "invalid"
[06:36] <lgc_> Scunizi, there's a Linux equivalent, allright.
[06:36] <warbler> noelferreira: is it in synaptic package manager?
[06:36] <kousotu> wxvlc app
[06:37] <lgc_> Scunizi, what do you mean by "end of life"?
[06:37] <Scunizi> lgc_, what's the actual name of the program and maybe manufacturer
[06:37] <Cyrus25801> Paddy_EIRE: got it right thanx
[06:37] <Scunizi> lgc_, win2kpro won't be supported for much longer for security updates.
[06:37] <noelferreira> warbler: aptitude is giving me that information. i can't install anything else
[06:37] <steel_lady> Paddy, why when I go to properties it often tells me: some contents unreadable?
[06:37] <lgc_> Scunizi, it's WinDig, and it's freeware in Windoze.
[06:37] <Paddy_EIRE> Cyrus25801, glas to hear :D
[06:37] <sunnypies> I just installed the java jdk  anyone know how to compile a java program with it?
[06:37] <sipior> Megaqwerty: if you just need a larger partition, you could copy your ubuntu partitions onto a scratch disk, and then copy them back onto the new one
[06:37] <Paddy_EIRE> *glad
[06:37] <Megaqwerty> sipior: okay, I was just putting it in those terms so I wouldn't be kicked into ubuntu+1 ;) I really wanted to use this knowledge to upgrade to a clean install of gutsy once released, but not have to install all my apps and configure them one by one
[06:37] <Scunizi> lgc_, I'll look it up.
[06:37] <kaje1> does anyone know of a fix for the HTML Validator addon for Firefox in Ubuntu?
[06:38] <publico> ICO
[06:38] <warbler> noelferreira: "can't install anything else" - what do you mean?
[06:38] <steel_lady> Paddy, maybe I have some garbage on the disk that is using up space?
[06:38] <noelferreira> i mean that i can't install anything warbler
[06:39] <noelferreira> i mean that i can't install anything warbler
[06:39] <s1icknick> sipior : this box is on a network of mainly windows machines. its not in active directory (thus, no OUs). last night our windows updates went out and the windows machines were rebooted at this same time. i tried configuring kerberos at one point to authenticate the domain and im wondering if that had anything to do with it.
[06:39] <sipior> Megaqwerty: ah :) well, your personal preferences will be in your home directory, so no worries there. synaptic will kick out a list of installed packages, but i don't know of any way to install them again automagically
[06:39] <nikin> is there any tutorial on using serial port modems?
[06:39] <lgc_> Scunizi, the Ubuntu package is 'engauge-digitizer', and I just installed it. It looks fine... (but why would I want to install an old Windows program then? Just out of fun; I mught end up learning something)
[06:39] <warbler> noelferreira: are you using sudo?
[06:39] <noelferreira> warbler: yes
[06:40] <neverblue> can you get pidgin from anywhere? not compiling from source...
[06:40] <Megaqwerty> sipior: yeah, it would use dpkg --get-selections and dpkg --set-selections, then use a dselect upgrade...I guess what I'm asking is if I should just back up all of /etc/ as well, and if I need a conf file....there, just answered my own question ;)
[06:40] <sipior> s1icknick: possible i suppose, seems odd that it should restart the box
[06:40] <kaje1> Does anyone know of a fix for the HTML Validator addon for Firefox in Ubuntu?
[06:40] <Scunizi> lgc_, I might be a good experiment for using wine... I'd try it there first. since it's shareware it may not have much in the way of proprietary stuff in it.
[06:40] <s1icknick> i know kinda nnoying
[06:40] <nikin> i connected the modem, and if i try to use it with efax-gtk the TR light goes on but the modem does not answer
[06:40] <sipior> Megaqwerty: yeah :)
[06:41] <s1icknick> cos this box has sometimes rebooted itself in the past ... i thought maybe because i hadntlogged into it for a few days
[06:41] <genii> kaje1: According to their home site, sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
[06:41] <s1icknick> but i used it yesterday..
[06:41] <Megaqwerty> sipior: thanks for helping me figure it out.
[06:41] <warbler> noelferreira: sudo apt-get won't do anything - hmmm - that is why - as a check - I suggested synaptic
[06:41] <sipior> Megaqwerty: no trouble
[06:41] <noelferreira> warbler:  there's nothing to do with sudo. the problem is that i have a package that needed to be reinstalled according to aptitude. however  it repository  can't be founded.
[06:41] <genii> kaje1: Reference: http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/faq.html
[06:41] <sipior> s1icknick: any cron jobs running on this guy? any pattern to the reboots?
[06:42] <notchNICK> anyone using virtualbox here?
[06:42] <kaje1> Yeah, that fix isn't working...
[06:42] <notchNICK> ---------
[06:42] <lgc_> Scunizi, I'd just want to know if I can install it under my root partition or it needs to be installed under /windows.
[06:42] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | notchNICK
[06:42] <ubotu> notchNICK: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:42] <noelferreira> warbler: synaptic is just a gui. if you can't do a thing manually how will you do it graphically?
[06:42] <warbler> noelferreira: just looking for the facts - are all repos enabled?
[06:42] <kaje1> Supposed something is different about Debian based distros... I was hoping someone had come up with a solution...
[06:42] <noelferreira> warbler: of course
[06:42] <Scunizi> lgc_, installing which one.. the windows exe or the linux version?
[06:42] <notchNICK> lol
[06:43] <lgc_> Scunizi, the Windows app., WinDig.
[06:43] <genii> kaje1: You could try compiling it from the source
[06:43] <notchNICK> Does anyone use VirtualBox in here?
[06:43] <warbler> noelferreira: your attitude is a disappointment
[06:43] <mauro> hola
[06:43] <pcinistro> Hello, What are the easiest way to download youtube videos?
[06:43] <kaje1> aye, I think I'll try that
[06:43] <noelferreira> warbler: somehow that i don't know a package was not completely installed and now it needs to be reinstalled and aparrentely there's no repository for it.
[06:43] <thingy> notchNICK: Whats the q. ?? Also there is a #vbox channel if you want to ask there instead
[06:44] <floresc7> genii: i did run lspci, i didnt get any information about the driver from that
[06:44] <Scunizi> lgc_, once wine is installed (synaptic), then copy the exe file to your /home direcory someplace (desktop).  Then from the command line navigate to the directory the exe is in and type "wine 'prog'.exe"
[06:44] <noelferreira> warbler: synaptic simple doesn't work if i don't correct that situation first.
[06:44] <warbler> noelferreira: OK - what is the package - that may be of use to HELP YOU
[06:44] <floresc7> genii: sorry, i meant chipset
[06:44] <noelferreira> warbler: secondlife-install
[06:44] <genii> floresc7: lspci shows you a list of PCI devices and where possible, the manufacturer names it can deduce for that hardware. it doesn't have driver info, just hardware info
[06:44] <Dougie> I'm trying to configure how Grip encodes the track names when its ripping right now it does them in all lowercase is there a way to make them uppercase or what not?
[06:45] <notchNICK> thingy the max resolution that I would get is 800x600.. I tried modifying the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf   adding 1280x1024.. yet nothing have changed..
[06:45] <floresc7> genii: its all intel
[06:45] <lgc_> Scunizi, Ah, OK. So it doesn't need to be in a specific place. I drop it anywhere and execute it with Wine...
[06:45] <warbler> noelferreira: one min
[06:45] <genii> floresc7: Likely then Marvell chipset
[06:45] <Scunizi> lgc_, yep
[06:45] <steel_lady> ok, I am going for repartitioning. who is helping witg gparted?
[06:45] <lgc_> Sounds fine. I'll do that. Thanks.
[06:45] <noelferreira> warbler: i use this http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1240
[06:46] <Scunizi> lgc_, np..
[06:46] <thingy> notchNICK: windows guest?
[06:46] <notchNICK> thingy yes
[06:46] <thingy> notchNICK: installed the additions?
[06:46] <floresc7> genii: so if it is a Marvell chipset, just google to find the drivers?
[06:46] <genii> floresc7: feisty did not work on my Marvell chipset but Gutsy did
[06:46] <pcinistro> There are any script that downloads youtube videos?
[06:47] <genii> floresc7: You could try to find a deb for that
[06:47] <warbler> noelferreira: it is a game. Of course there won't be a repo for it
[06:47] <notchNICK> thingy it just says that I need to type the resolution that I need in that file... couldnt find where it says install additions in the manual
[06:47] <mypapit> pcinistro,  yeah.. try youtube-dl
[06:47] <shrimants> im about to attempt to install ubuntu on my vostro 1500
[06:47] <mypapit> pcinistro,  handy script, written in python.. support restricted youtube video too
[06:47] <Goop> I'm having trouble connecting to my access point on the Feisty LiveCD
[06:47] <noelferreira> warbler: where are the deb files stored?
[06:47] <steel_lady> can I take a bit of windows with gparted?
[06:47] <pcinistro> mypapit, great. thanks.
[06:47] <sambiase> hi..does anyone here run ssl-explorer?
[06:48] <floresc7> genii: is gutsy stable enought right now to upgrade to/
[06:48] <thingy> notchNICK: in the virtualbox window, in the menubar somewhere is a link which allows you to install the guest additions in a windows os once the os is booted up. Can you do that and then try and change res
[06:48] <genii> floresc7: I do not think i would recommend it yet for a production machine.
[06:49] <warbler> noelferreira: that site says the game will load from the makers site
[06:49] <steel_lady> please i WILL DO THE SENSITIVE THING, CAN YOU HELP ME WITH GPARTED?
[06:49] <genii> floresc7: Although i personally have not had any extreme problems with it that were irrecoverable
[06:49] <Goop> I'm having trouble connecting to my access point on the Feisty LiveCD, it won't connect
[06:49] <notchNICK> thingy yes I've clicked on install guest additions and a file has appeared.. but how do I install it?
[06:49] <noelferreira> but is it installed via Gdeb app warbler
[06:50] <noelferreira> warbler: where are deb files stored?
[06:50] <Mba7eth> hi guys .... i'm having a strange prob here .... plz help !
[06:50] <Thulanis> What?
[06:50] <neverblue> !ask | Mba7eth
[06:50] <ubotu> Mba7eth: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:50] <thingy> notchNICK: huh? if youve selected the guest additions menu item, it will mount an iso image as a cdrom in the guest os and auto play the cdrom, which will launch the setup program on the cd which will start the installation of the guest additions.
[06:51] <floresc7> genii: ok, where would i start to find the deb for marvell?
[06:51] <Thulanis> We're no strangers to love. You know the rules, and so do I!
[06:51] <warbler> noelferreira: go to that site - click where it says second life 1.18..1.2 that takes you to where you can install
[06:52] <genii> floresc7: Perhaps google for such things as: "marvell ide" driver deb
[06:52] <scipio> anyone here has sopcast working? i deleted the channels url field in config tab and now i don't have any channels
[06:52] <Dougie> I'm trying to configure how Grip encodes the track names when its ripping right now it does them in all lowercase is there a way to make them uppercase or what not?

[06:53] <steel_lady> warbler, can't I do it with gparted that is already installed?
[06:53] <notchNICK> thingy actually I did not run the setup program.. it just opened a folder which has few files in it
[06:53] <genii> work, AFK
[06:53] <thingy> notchNICK: ok...well install the guest additions via the setup program and you can then change the res. to whatever you want

[07:25] <slavik> tomaw: not going to kick him?
[07:25] <dooglus> slavik: could it be that the +b silenced him?
[07:26] <Johto> autumnx: first you need to decide what of many ftp server would you like
[07:26] <Johto> autumnx: there are lot of choices
[07:26] <khamael> Johto: when I try to play files, it tells me to check the settings, but I have tried every setting available
[07:26] <matt___> is there any way to undo a patch that I can't think of?  I'd rather not recompile the entire kernel to remove suspend2 and try out uswsusp...
[07:26] <slavik> dooglus: but kicking him wouldn't allow him back
[07:27] <kitche] > slavik: sure it will sicne it's +q not +b +q just mutes him not bans him
[07:27] <dooglus> slavik: who cares?  he's silent now anyway.  maybe kicking him would make him join somewhere else.
[07:27] <tomaw> slavik: hardly seems worth it
[07:27] <autumnx> ok i installed the server
[07:27] <autumnx> now what
[07:27] <autumnx> ?

[07:28] <Johto> khamael: ok good
[07:28] <Johto> khamael: was it just one of the alsa choices? :D
[07:28] <kitche] > slavik: no it's not, in the freenode docs it's +q anything % in it for +b is +q in reality
[07:28] <animimotus> pula
[07:28] <khamael> Johto: it was /dev/dsp,actually
[07:29] <slavik> I see
[07:29] <alexandre> i can see my wifi network but cannont connect to it
[07:29] <Johto> khamael: ok, does your system work with alsa on any apps?
[07:29] <slavik> alexandre: what card and is the network encrypted?
[07:29] <autumnx> i installed the ftp server
[07:29] <Johto> khamael: i would suggest you to config your system to use ALSA if possible
[07:29] <autumnx> now what?

[07:33] <lubosz> how do i open port 80 for my webserver in my system?
[07:33] <slavik> dvs01: /var/log
[07:34] <slavik> alexandre: should be working flawlessly then :)
[07:34] <dvs01> anything specific in there?
[07:34] <Taladan> autumnx: try man vsftpd
[07:34] <warbler> !iptables
[07:34] <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).
[07:34] <Ravenndude`> I'm using using compiz fusion + ubuntu. When I use the volume controls on my keyboard, I get this large 2"x2" box that shows the volume changing, is there any way to change the size of this, or to change it at all?
[07:34] <slavik> dvs01: system -> admin ->system log
[07:34] <alexandre> i can see my network but when i click on it it told me failed to connect
[07:34] <kshah> is anyone using node cloud that can give an amen to its potential awesomeness?
[07:35] <steel_lady> ok, I found feisty live CD, the original one, I do the command gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" and nothing happens!
[07:35] <nikin> i ame setupping a modem wich is on ttyS0 whn i try to connect to it, i get modem not respondig, but the TX leg goes on for some seconds.  and if i try to autodetect it by gnome-ppp, i get "no modems found", the modem is a Mercury external v/d/f 56kbps, na d i want to use it for faxing.
[07:35] <dvs01> whats a good logfile analyzer that can let me see what happens at a certain point of time in multiple log files?
[07:35] <doug_> You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE ip =       hwo do i fix that?
[07:35] <Davy_Jones> setupping?
[07:35] <Davy_Jones> wtf?
[07:35] <Aquilas> I've installed the 64bit Kubuntu... changed the graphics driver and after rebooting I get lines across the screen to the point of not being about to see what I'm doing... how can I fix this without having to reinstall the OS?
[07:36] <doug_> how do i fix this You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE ip =
[07:36] <Davy_Jones> what happened to the english language?
[07:36] <Dougie> i get this when i try and open these files i encoded http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35423/ how do i make it stop giving me this error?
[07:36] <Tomcat_> doug_: What app?
[07:36] <Tomcat_> doug_: Looks like an SQL problem to me, not an Ubuntu problem.
[07:36] <doug_> Tomcat its at www.3roms.com
[07:36] <Taladan> alexandre: I suppose you could tail -f /var/log/messages and then try to connect - it may give you an error in there that you can check.
[07:36] <doug_> tomcat how do i fix it?
[07:36] <patrick_> Aquilas: why did you use 64bit ubuntu.. unless you need it then I'd stick with 32, less hassle
[07:37] <XdorotaX> how do you list all running proccesses?
[07:37] <doug_> Tomcat_,  how do i fix it?
[07:37] <Taladan> XdorotaX: ps -ef
[07:37] <patrick_> XdorotaX: top
[07:37] <nikin> XdorotaX: ps -ax
[07:37] <Tomcat_> doug_: Check the SQL sections of the code running, and fix it. It's an SQL/code problem, has nothing to do with Ubuntu. And please don't repeat. :)
[07:37] <Taladan> or top
[07:37] <Aquilas> Patrick... that's not being helpfull
[07:37] <nikin> i ame setupping a modem wich is on ttyS0 whn i try to connect to it, i get modem not respondig, but the TX leg goes on for some seconds.  and if i try to autodetect it by gnome-ppp, i get "no modems found", the modem is a Mercury external v/d/f 56kbps, na d i want to use it for faxing.
[07:37] <DagonIT> Is the Opera install for the 64 bit Ubuntu broken
[07:37] <Aquilas> I need a solution
[07:37] <XdorotaX> kk
[07:37] <kekk> doug_, where do you get that?
[07:37] <kekk> doug_, unless it's your server you can do nothing
[07:37] <doug_> kekk i get it at this web site www.3roms.com

[07:44] <Aquilas> erUSUL: are there other coding I need to know about before I leave this chat session
[07:44] <Taladan> alexandre - not sure.  if it's reading the wireless as eth1 then it's saying it's not ready...you're running broadcom, have you tried installing the ndiswrappers?
[07:44] <nikin> i am trying to install a modem wich is on ttyS0 when i try to connect to it, i get "modem not respondig", but the TX led goes on for some seconds.  and if i try to autodetect it by gnome-ppp, i get "no modems found", the modem is a Mercury external v/d/f 56kbps, and i want to use it for faxing.
[07:45] <warbler> steel_lady: silly question - did you add the cd to synaptic repos?
[07:46] <erUSUL> Aquilas: no afaics that command will walk you through a reconfiguration of the X server

[07:52] <WindowsHater> ...say ^^
[07:52] <WheelDweller> My nameserver (Dapper) is fine to resolve local names....but ask for Google, and it's confused.  I think it's not recursing.
[07:52] <steel_lady> warbler, yes of course
[07:52] <WheelDweller> Anyone know how to turn up the diagnostics?
[07:53] <recover> What's the command that tells you what directory you are in?

[07:53] <WindowsHater> hum...
[07:54] <_tux> recover: pwd = print working directory which shows you the directory you're in
[07:55] <alexandre> taladan:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35432/
[07:55] <recover> Yes, I remember now. I knew that command before but I just forgot what it was called. Thanks
[07:55] <WheelDweller> I've put "recursion on" and "allow-recursion "addr, addr;" but it doesn't seem to open up.  :<
[07:55] <WheelDweller> At the 'main' host (with all the ldap, email, dns, etc but no monitor) I can resolve, but not at the workstations.  It's nuts!

[07:56] <doug_> how do i fix a mysql problem?
[07:56] <doug_> !MySQL
[07:56] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[08:02] <TurtleBoots> trying to find out why my wireless network connection keeps dropping when using ktorrent. I've got loads of tx overflow errors reported in dmesg - what might this be anyone???
[08:03] <dho_ragus> steel_lady: you're being noticed as an irritant who is screaming for attention when nobody who's listening has a solution to your problem.
[08:03] <warbler> Steel_lady: just to check - the line sudo apt-cdrom add was included?
[08:03] <TurtleBoots> is there a network channel to join anyone?
[08:03] <_tux> steel_lady: what's the issue you're having?
[08:03] <dho_ragus> TurtleBoots: for general networking information, you mean?

[08:04] <steel_lady> dho_ragus, will it stay there forever or will it be repaired one day?

[08:06] <steel_lady> it gives me the same mistake trying to install or uninstal or doing whatever. I can not locate which particular package is making problem to remove it
[08:06] <steel_lady> _tux: ALL
[08:06] <_tux> steel_lady: Go in to synaptic package manager and see if there is any broken packages to your left inside of synaptic
[08:07] <dho_ragus> TurtleBoots: a lot of people in vmware know about networking too because they're always trying to hook up vm's to each other, so you might try that channel.
[08:07] <steel_lady> _tux it should warn me somewhere? I don't se anything
[08:08] <_tux> steel_lady: click on custom filters to see something called broken
[08:08] <steel_lady> above says 0 broken
[08:08] <TurtleBoots> dho_ thanks mate (I think I've located the problem - its a known bug) :-(
[08:08] <_tux> weird
[08:08] <steel_lady> no broken for sure

[08:10] <TurtleBoots> anyone know where to locate bug fixes for ubuntu?

[08:18] <Morphera> Anyone able to tell me how I can format a memory card into FAT or FAT32 using ubuntu?
[08:18] <steel_lady> tux, I don't have to post an immage, it is always the same text like at the end on my last pastebin
[08:18] <CharlieSu> Trying to figure out why when i switched from gentoo to ubunto i wasn't able to resize splict Screen windows with Ctrl a , - anymore..  anyone?
[08:18] <_tux> steel_lady: seems I didn't catch the pastebin url
[08:18] <steel_lady> _tux, look at the last couple of lines
[08:19] <neverblue> steel_lady, thats not really the point though, please watch the language :)
[08:19] <steel_lady> http://pastebin.com/m32c885f7
[08:19] <tom__666> morphera: not sure about ubuntu - but used to use a set of tools called something like "mtools" which could do fat32 formatting... use it don't use it
[08:19] <TeReL50> Morphera;  try gparted
[08:19] <_tux> thanks

[08:19] <Morphera> I'm trying that now... all the options are greyed out when its looking at the media though.

[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: What make and model is the modem?
[08:20] <Jork> hello
[08:20] <steel_lady> the name of the package changes depending what I am installing and it says start failed and subprocess etc
[08:20] <neverblue> hey Jork
[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Internal..external... pcmcia
[08:20] <_tux> seems like it was removing a couple of important things
[08:20] <reD_Fox1> after I shutdown ubuntu, and then turn the thinkpad back on, it hangs on a blank ("dead") screen right before gnome loads
[08:21] <nikin> them modem is a Mercury 56kbps voice/data/fax modem with serial connction
[08:21] <eldkraft> paddy: man grep
[08:21] <reD_Fox1> rebooting manually will then boot fine
[08:21] <TeReL50> Morphera;   do you have ntfsprogs and ntfs-3G installed ?
[08:21] <Morphera> Nope... I'll check the repositories for those now.
[08:21] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Mercury external?
[08:21] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: yep
[08:22] <kitche] > Morphera: mkfs.vfat should work
[08:22] <reD_Fox1> I don't get what the difference might be between booting one time versus the second
[08:22] <Morphera> mkfs.vfat ?
[08:22] <nikin> i use it on a normal serial port.. no usb2serial thing
[08:22] <steel_lady> _tux I am not sure but I think it is not always linux-igd that is mentioned in the error
[08:23] <nikin> in the bios the serial port is set to com1
[08:23] <tom__666> morph: sounds right
[08:23] <ltracy> hey, where can I get the original mysql and apache2 directories?  I have apparently manage to screw both of them up pretty well :)
[08:23] <TeReL50> Morphera;   could work
[08:23] <neverblue> ltracy, /etc
[08:23] <nikin> i also have an other modem in the Computer a winmodem... can that couse problem?
[08:23] <ltracy> apparently, deleting them and reinstalling the mysql-server and apache2 packages doesn't fix much
[08:23] <LukeEkblad> Hello.  I just got Mozilla thunderbird and added a gmail account bye folowing all the derections online.  but now i cant get any messages!  Why is this?
[08:23] <Ravenndude`> How can I save the Size of a window?
[08:24] <duvnell> I've placed a .desktop file in $HOME/.share/local/application/  and am expecting an icon to show up on the start menu now
[08:24] <duvnell> if I restart gnome it does.. but is there some command I can run to have it rebuild the menus while gnome/gnome-panel is still running?
[08:24] <duvnell> I'm placing that file there from an installation script and would obviously prefer not to have to tell the user to restart gnome for the menu item to show up
[08:24] <tom__666> luke: did you enable pop in your gmail account?
[08:24] <_tux> steel_lady: the linux-headers file seems to be the gnu core utilities includes a bunch of tiny programs for the terminal
[08:24] <kbrosnan> LukeEkblad: i belive you need to enable pop connections to your account in gmail
[08:24] <_tux> like commands
[08:24] <orbisvicis> !netbeans
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about netbeans - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:24] <LukeEkblad> tom_666 yes
[08:24] <_tux> but still checking out the error
[08:24] <tom__666> luke: get any errors?
[08:24] <LukeEkblad> kbrosnan:  i did
[08:24] <tom__666> in thunderbird i mean
[08:24] <Morphera> Ack!
[08:25] <ltracy> neverblue, how can I get the default configurations back?
[08:25] <LukeEkblad> tom: nope
[08:25] <Morphera> It's wierder than I thought... Somehow the device has become read only
[08:25] <ltracy> what packages do the config files come out of?
[08:25] <tom__666> click send/receive button ? :)
[08:25] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Wasnt trying to leave you hanging.. but that may be a soft-modem and not true hardware...  the one I found said softmodem pctel..
[08:25] <Morphera> How can I get it back to read/write instead of read only?
[08:25] <tom__666> is there any new mail in your gmail at the moment? cause i think the default is to get only NEW messages
[08:25] <LukeEkblad> send and recive? i dont see it
[08:26] <LukeEkblad> tom: yes there is
[08:26] <shearn89> /leave
[08:26] <ahmed> hi
[08:26] <bkeating> Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS -- I setup Apache2 + SSL via the docs. I can access it by "192.168.1.1:443" but not "https://192.168.1.1/" when i point to https, i get an error "<ip> has sent an incorrect or unexpected message. Error Code: -12263". Any ideas?
[08:26] <orbisvicis> anyone would know why netbeans license agreement is a blank window ... so cant get past it to run java ide?
[08:26] <tom__666> hehe - sorry don't know thunderbird too well, was just taking a guess on the send/receive button :)
[08:26] <_tux> steel_lady: I may have found the issue to fix it
[08:26] <ahmed> i need a help
[08:26] <neverblue> ltracy, didnt you back it up, before applying changes?
[08:26] <Ravenndude`> How can I save the Size of a window (specifically, the gnome terminal). I have Compiz Fusion, if it makes a difference.?
[08:26] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: hmm so there are softmodems wich are connected to a serial port?
[08:26] <warbler> steel_lady: this line - External interface not specified in /etc/default/upnpd - seems to be the prob - paste that file pls
[08:26] <_tux> steel_lady: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=519070&highlight=linux-igd looking throughout the forum
[08:26] <tom__666> there should be something similar tho
[08:26] <steel_lady> _tux if you have done it by googling, I probably tried it. let's see
[08:27] <jrib> Ravenndude`: not the answer to your question but gnome-terminal accepts --geometry as a switch so you can set the height and width explicitly in the launcher
[08:27] <ltracy> neverblue, heh, that would've been a good idea, wouldn't it
[08:27] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: I was not aware of any... until now... still trying to read fartehr...  what does lspci show
[08:27] <ahmed> iam a new ubuntu user and new for linux also
[08:27] <neverblue> ltracy, yes, it would 'have' been
[08:27] <neverblue> !ask | ahmed
[08:27] <ubotu> ahmed: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:27] <LukeEkblad> tom_666: theres a recive mail. but i clicked it and it sais downloading but nothing happened
[08:28] <Ravenndude`> jrib, That actually helps a lot. Do you know the syntax for the switch? --geometry x,y?
[08:28] <ahmed> how can i install Mail server on ubuntu ?
[08:28] <lgc_> I need Abiword help: where are the plugins located?
[08:28] <_tux> oops
[08:28] <ltracy> but.. the /etc/apache2 dir doesn't come installed with ubuntu originally.. correct?
[08:28] <_tux> steel_lady: it seems the same exact post you posted on the ubuntuforums
[08:28] <tom__666> luke: no idea mate - sure you got the port numbers etc right?
[08:28] <ltracy> it's added when the apache2 package first gets installed?
[08:28] <Ravenndude`> jrib, or --geometry h,w something along those lines
[08:28] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: nothing just my softmodem... wich is an Internal one
[08:28] <jrib> Ravenndude`: --geometry HxW   or something similar
[08:28] <steel_lady> _tux, I have been there long ago, the guy lost the problem after reinstalling the problematic package
[08:28] <_tux> I didn't even seem to check that
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: If you could find a pdf on that modem it would help..
[08:29] <tom__666> ahmed: check out a package called exim
[08:29] <Morphera> Anyone able to help me with this... my MicroSD card has somehow become recognised as read only by ubuntu
[08:29] <ahmed> yes i know it
[08:29] <ahmed> i get it from internet
[08:29] <ahmed> but i am a new user
[08:29] <_tux> steel_lady: wouldn't happen to know what package you installed last or when it occured would you
[08:29] <steel_lady> _tux, he knew which package was making problems
[08:29] <ahmed> so could you help step by step
[08:29] <ltracy> Morphera, happened to me once when I accidentally pushed that dam switch on it to `lock'
[08:29] <tom__666> ahmed: so just install it using your package manager
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: dmesg | grep ttyS   what does it show
[08:30] <Morphera> Theres no switch on a MicroSD card though is there?
[08:30] <neverblue> ahmed, setting up a mail server is a very complex process
[08:30] <tom__666> ahmed: or from a terminal go "sudo apt-get install exim4"
[08:30] <steel_lady> _tux, it occured like 4 month ago out of the blue, I think maybe after sume regular update of a lot of packages
[08:30] <ltracy> Morphera, I guess it was a `non-micro' SD card.. so maybe not
[08:30] <ahmed> yes i know
[08:30] <tom__666> agreed - it's a total mission
[08:30] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: i did google a lot about it..but there is not much info on it.. nor on the page of the wendor... it claims to be v.90 modem... i has 5 connectors: power, line, phone, nad 2 jacks... mic and headphone
[08:30] <neverblue> ahmed, you should really read some documentation on the subject, then come back when you have specific questions
[08:30] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: i will look just a sec
[08:30] <tom__666> and exim is a pain in the *ss to configure :(
[08:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Morphera: That sometimes happens when you pull it before it is fully ejected/unmounted
[08:30] <ahmed> ok from where i read alot
[08:30] <jrib> Ravenndude`: http://www.hmug.org/man/7/X.php "GEOMETRY SPECIFICATIONS"
[08:31] <neverblue> ahmed, also, if you could insert the person's nick your replying to, so they know its directed towards them, is very helpful :)
[08:31] <Morphera> Okay Jack_Sparrow, that is probably what happened... how do I deal with it?
[08:31] <Ravenndude`> Thanks a lot jrib
[08:31] <neverblue> ahmed, google is a great place to start, as always
[08:31] <Esteth> Is there any way to move the libnotify popup location?
[08:31] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: [    2.266494]  serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
[08:31] <nikin> [    2.268381]  00:0c: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Morphera: Depends on what format it is?  ntfs or fat32
[08:31] <tom__666> ahmed: i think www.exim.org is a good place to start out
[08:31] <Morphera> it's currently in FAT
[08:31] <jrib> Esteth: someone in gconf-editor I believe
[08:32] <jrib> s/one/where
[08:32] <_tux> steel_lady: try going to synaptic package manager >> click on file >> history
[08:32] <Morphera> I am trying to convert it to FAT32, but obviously can't whilst it's like this
[08:32] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: sudo screen /dev/ttyS0                           then try ATZ
[08:32] <ahmed> neverblue but believe there's no time my company was ruining qmail on the fedora but the pc was stopped suddenly
[08:32] <ltracy> This stupid config mistake is going to annoy me for quite some time.
[08:32] <laserbeak43> hi i took the wireless tutorial here http://boredklink.googlepages.com/ubuntuguide and then my wireless worked, i logged into windows, was forced to use a different wifi network and then logged back into linux and it didnt work. now i've doen the tutorial over again and i can't connect wirelessly.
[08:33] <neverblue> ahmed, no one in here can give you step by step direction on setting up a mail server
[08:33] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: i get an empty screen, and the TX led on the modem is on
[08:33] <steel_lady> _tux for some strange rason, it is all empty
[08:33] <reD_Fox1> so then I reboot it manually, and it boots fine
[08:33] <neverblue> ahmed, we are all volunteers, and we do as much as we can
[08:33] <reD_Fox1> before I added acpi=force, it wouldn't boot back up, ever.
[08:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Morphera: You can use gparted ..but I am a bit busy to help you
[08:33] <nikin> sory TR led
[08:33] <tom__666> ahmed: if you had qmail running and in a tight spot probably best to stick with fedora and just move the configs over to the new machine
[08:33] <sjbrown> what's the equivalent of /etc/sysconfig/network in ubuntu?
[08:33] <Morphera> ok
[08:33] <ahmed> could you send me a pdf with all info
[08:33] <reD_Fox1> I don't get what the difference would be when booting it one time, as opposed to the second time.
[08:33] <_tux> weird
[08:33] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Do you get OK after ATZ enter
[08:33] <ltracy> has anoyone replaced the network configuration manager with something that works better on a laptop?
[08:33] <neverblue> ahmed, also, if your using a specific mail server, there maybe a channel on Freenode for that channel
[08:33] <Drad1k> <---- completely new to linux/ubunto who wants to help me =*(
[08:34] <Esteth> jrib: I'm seeing a few results for "notify" in gconf-editor, but they're all other apps settings for wether to show notifications :S
[08:34] <neverblue> !ask | Drad1k
[08:34] <laserbeak43> ltracy: i'd like to know
[08:34] <Drad1k> !ask
[08:34] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: i cant type in anything
[08:34] <neverblue> Drad1k, just ask your question please :)

[08:34] <Drad1k> and stuff
[08:34] <neverblue> Drad1k, keep it to one line only
[08:34] <Drad1k> i mean i am NEW NEW lol
[08:34] <Drad1k> oh ok
[08:34] <Drad1k> sorry
[08:34] <_tux> steel_lady: the guy in the forum that you were talking with thinks you should have to remove the linux-igd file but than again I don't know if its a file
[08:34] <neverblue> Drad1k, please
[08:34] <jrib> Esteth: /apps/notification-daemon/popup_location
[08:34] <ahmed> is i should start the emarkting project
[08:34] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: You should have gotten a terminal window with the first command
[08:35] <laserbeak43> ltracy:  one day my wireless adapter works the next its screwed
[08:35] <ahmed> cause we will face real disaster
[08:35] <steel_lady> _tux, I was trying to find it but I couldn't
[08:35] <Drad1k> Ok here is my situation, I am new to linux, I am trying to get quake 4 and ventrilo set up on this box I have for linux, currently it has ubunto
[08:35] <neverblue> ahmed, i have assisted with all the knowledge I can, have a good day and good luck
[08:35] <_tux> steel_lady: "sudo apt-get remove linux-igd"
[08:35] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: i just got an empty screen with the cusor in the upperleft corner. and i ca type nothing

[08:35] <bkeating> the 6.0.6 LTS http SSL guide is broken.
[08:35] <ltracy> laserbeak43, what is your problem exactly?
[08:35] <sjbrown> does anyone know what the equivalent of /etc/sysconfig/network is in ubuntu?
[08:35] <laserbeak43> wow this room is like a bunch of fighting stock brokers
[08:35] <neverblue> Drad1k, i would use the documentation included with setting up the game
[08:36] <stefg>  -> http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html <-
[08:36] <steel_lady> ah tux now i see, it is the part for my modem, if I remove it I will lost my connection and downloads

[08:36] <evri2> anyone here can help me about mplayer compile?I cannot compile with alsa and xv support
[08:36] <nickslit> irc.gr
[08:36] <laserbeak43> ltracy:  i took the wireless tutorial here http://boredklink.googlepages.com/ubuntuguide and then my wireless worked, i logged into windows, was forced to use a different wifi network and then logged back into linux and it didnt work. now i've doen the tutorial over again and i can't connect wirelessly.
[08:36] <Drad1k> thanks ill start reading up
[08:36] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: done
[08:36] <jrib> evri2: why are you compiling it?  It is in the multiverse repository
[08:36] <_tux> but it seems to be conflicting with something
[08:36] <ltracy> laserbeak43, so, you tried to use the network manager to connect to a wireless network and you have no connection?
[08:37] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: TR led is still on
[08:37] <ltracy> laserbeak43, I mean when you returned to Ubuntu
[08:37] <laserbeak43> yeah but it did work at first
[08:37] <steel_lady> _tux, it will cut off chat, amule messaging and all
[08:37] <laserbeak43> yeha
[08:37] <evri2> jrib: because it cannot play flv files.
[08:37] <laserbeak43> correct
[08:37] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: should i restart the modem?
[08:37] <lgc_> Abiword help!
[08:37] <evri2> jrib: i mean it can play but so much problems like do not support seeking
[08:37] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Yes..
[08:37] <jrib> evri2: did you try the package from medibuntu?
[08:37] <_tux> steel_lady: I would say to remove it but don't know if you would be able to reinstall it as it may need access to the Internet for reinstalltion
[08:37] <ltracy> laserbeak43, ok.. here's what I do (probably not the UBUNTU way..)  I go into terminal and check iwconfig eth1 to see if the ESSID is set to the right network and to see that any KEY is set correctly first
[08:37] <_tux> reinstallation*
[08:37] <steel_lady> all of them are working fine and never had problem with it. and probably you know well that often it points in the wrong direction for errors
[08:38] <Javid> Is there any special steps that need to be taken to install Ubuntu on a mac?
[08:38] <ltracy> laserbeak43, assuming your wireless adapter is named eth1..
[08:38] <jrib> evri2: I see.  make sure you have the build-essential package installed and do 'sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer' then
[08:38] <laserbeak43> ltracy:  i'll try that
[08:38] <jrib> !compiling > evri2 (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:38] <laserbeak43> it is
[08:38] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: its still on
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> If it didnt take atz then it is on port 1  ie:0   but isnt responding
[08:38] <Javid> !compiling > Javid
[08:38] <ahmed> any one can help us on installing mail server on ubuntu
[08:38] <warbler> steel_lady: from your post this line - External interface not specified in /etc/default/upnpd - is the prob - what's in that file
[08:39] <ltracy> laserbeak43, if not, then set them with iwconfig eth1 essid "NAME OF NETWORK" key "KEY"
[08:39] <ltracy> laserbeak43, and then run dhclient
[08:39] <steel_lady> _tux, think logically: i can cut of the network and instal say calculator or something from the CD and it will return that error. you really think it is the real problem?
[08:39] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: sudo screen /dev/ttyS0               again...
[08:39] <laserbeak43> ltracy: it says ESSID: off/any
[08:39] <_tux> upnpd seems to be a unplug n' play file just by looking at it
[08:39] <tom__666> ahmed: there is tons available on the net for install exim - try even http://www.exim-new-users.co.uk/ it has a beginners guide
[08:39] <evri2> jrib: i have this repo i think it is mediubuntu but mplayer package in package manager is not mediubuntu's.                      http://packages.medibuntu.org/feisty free non-free
[08:39] <ltracy> laserbeak43, yeah.. just run     iwconfig eth1 essid "whatever then ame is"
[08:39] <warbler> not on my box at all!
[08:39] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: the same as before... empty screen, cant type
[08:40] <lucydu69> hi
[08:40] <jrib> evri2: k, my last message should get you started to compiling, but the medibuntu mplayer has worked fine for me in the past
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: Sorry, but it dosent look like I will be able to help much...
[08:40] <lucydu69> i have made a new website about ubuntu and his security ; http://ganjahouse.antiville.fr/

[08:40] <lucydu69> what do you thing about that?
[08:40] <jrib> !offtopic | lucydu69
[08:40] <ubotu> lucydu69: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[08:40] <ltracy> laserbeak43, you get that last one?
[08:40] <_tux> steel_lady: couldn't say but certain files require dependencies and each program can use that dependency in order to function correctly
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: That should have worked if it were a true hardware modem...
[08:41] <laserbeak43> yeah just tried it
[08:41] <slashzul> I get all kinds of crap like opendoc etc....
[08:41] <pvl1> can some1 help me with gnump3d?
[08:41] <steel_lady> warbler, this is the content: http://pastebin.com/m7bb2cf3a
[08:41] <laserbeak43> am i supposed to plug out my ethernet cable now?
[08:41] <evri2> jrib: have you ever tried playing flv files?
[08:41] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: the next step would have been to make a symlink...  ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/modem
[08:41] <jrib> evri2: yes, but not on my current system
[08:41] <ltracy> laserbeak43, well, when the essid (and key if it is secured) are set right.. you should be able to do an ifconfig eth1 up and then run dhclient
[08:41] <pike_> slashzul: im not familiar with gnome but any scripts in /etc/init.d/ you dont want to run you can use update-rc.d or bum which gives you a gui
[08:42] <ltracy> laserbeak43, yeah, you'll also need to unplug the ethernet and/or run ifconfig eth0 down before running dhclient
[08:42] <_tux> steel_lady: so for example if you were to remove say calculator and say xchat needed a file called lib thus if you removed calculator it will remove lib and xchat wouldn't be able to function

[08:42] <lucydu69> my blog : http://ganjahouse.antiville.fr/ : it is possible to have it in the planet?
[08:42] <shirish> guys, I have a query, this is for a friend whose grub got destroyed after he put windows xp on top
[08:42] <nikin> Jack_Sparrow: thanx for your help.. i try some other things... and go get and beat the head of the computer store guy :) no i wont
[08:42] <_tux> that's kinda how stuff works with Linux
[08:42] <Drad1k> thank you
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> nikin: If it helps I use the Airlink external although the package says all over it Only for WIndows...
[08:43] <reD_Fox1> hmph. any ideas why linux would only boot half the time?
[08:43] <pvl1> i cant get gnump3d to work
[08:43] <_tux> steel_lady: but I can't be too sure it that's the issue that linux-igd is causing but seems to be the only error occuring for you
[08:43] <warbler> steel_lady: sudo gedit that file and uncomment the lines - #EXT_IFACE - #INT_IFACE
[08:43] <reD_Fox1> I shut ubuntu down, and when I boot it, it halts with a blank ("dead") screen right before loading gnome.
[08:43] <reD_Fox1> so then I reboot it manually, and it boots fine
[08:43] <tom__666> red_fox: whats the error?
[08:44] <steel_lady> _tux, you want to know what is the content of linux-igd file?
[08:44] <tom__666> red_fox: what video card u got?
[08:44] <shirish> my query is this, when one mounts the hdd through the live CD, would it be /hda or /hdb or with libata happening it would /sda or /sdb whatever slave master it is.
[08:44] <steel_lady> _tux: linux-igd: package-contains-upstream-install-documentation usr/share/doc/linux-igd/INSTALL.gz
[08:44] <Urthmover> lynx is the wave of the future
[08:44] <reD_Fox1> tom__666: there's no error
[08:44] <reD_Fox1> (msg)
[08:44] <Urthmover> browsers beware
[08:44] <Drad1k> sweet!
[08:44] <Drad1k> thanks for the help
[08:44] <mat> Hi. I have insatlled Ubuntu 7 on a machient that had it before and the network doesnt work
[08:45] <tom__666> red_fox: check you X logs - /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:45] <Jack_Sparrow> shirish: I usually fire up gparted and it mounts all my windows drives and partitions
[08:45] <stefg> !dosn't work
[08:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dosn't work - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:45] <stefg> !doesn't work
[08:45] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[08:45] <reD_Fox1> tom__666: ok, will do
[08:45] <Bo1> is there somebody in this plant that can tell me step by step how to install my pci graphic card?
[08:45] <gilos> what program is recommended for ripping DVDs?
[08:45] <shirish> Jack_Sparrow: nice name, gparted is a solution but let's say if we go the old route/way
[08:45] <pike_> Bo1: what card?
[08:45] <jrib> !restricted > gilos (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:45] <Jack_Sparrow> shirish: Then I cheat and use the diskmounter script  :)
[08:46] <Bo1> pike:nvidia
[08:46] <blind> Can someone help me figure out why no one can connect to my computer? I called my ISP to make sure they don't block ports, and they don't. I'm going straight from the modem to the computer, but people can't connect to me.
[08:46] <laserbeak43> ltracy: i guess i dont unplug my ethernet cable yet lol
[08:46] <steel_lady> warbler ok, I did it. what should I try now?
[08:46] <shirish> Jack_Sparrow: what diskmounter script?
[08:46] <pike_> Bo1: older nvidia? what model?
[08:46] <_tux> usr/share/doc/linux-igd/INSTALL.gz isn't located on my machine yet I see that its a UPnP Internet Gateway Device specification (IGD) and allows UPnP aware clients, such as MSN Messenger to work properly from behind a NAT firewall
[08:46] <Morphera> o.o
[08:46] <jrib> blind: how are they trying to connect?
[08:46] <shirish> Jack_Sparrow: some script you wrote yourself or what?
[08:46] <Bo1> pike:e-GeForce FX5200
[08:46] <Drad1k> Ok, my next question is how do I get q4max (a competition mod for quake 4) installed on it and running.
[08:46] <warbler> steel_lady: I'd reboot than try to update via the cd using the commands I linked you to earlier
[08:47] <blind> jrib: via http
[08:47] <Jack_Sparrow> shirish: wget http://media.ubuntu-nl.org/scripts/diskmounter
[08:47] <pike_> Bo1: good card for linux. ive not used it but i hear the restricted manager is pretty intuitive for installing nvidia drivers. youll know it works because when x launches youll get a big nvidia splash screen
[08:47] <R_Daneel> Hey all, anyone know of any way to get Rhythmbox to allow me to create and manipulate iPod playlists? Or anyone know any other programs besides Rhythmbox that will allow me to use a Samba share as my library location?
[08:47] <steel_lady> warbler ok
[08:47] <mat> HOW DO I GET HIGH RES ON DELL INSPRON
[08:47] <mat> excuse my shout
[08:47] <blind> jrib: http, ssh, ftp, i haven't found a port that works :\
[08:47] <blind> !fixres > mat
[08:47] <Bo1> pike:i don;t understand
[08:48] <mat> !fixres
[08:48] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:48] <_tux> steel_lady: if possible to reinstall linux-igd from CD I would remove linux-igd to see what issue it fixes then reinstall if possible from within the CD but its just my suggestion its a risk to take too
[08:48] <laserbeak43> ltracy: whats the diff between an SSID and an ESSID?
[08:48] <pike_> Bo1: but basially its 1) sudo apt-get isntall nvidia-glx 2) sudo nvidia-xconfig  3) sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart    <-- this is command line youll need to look at the following link for gui because im not familiar with it
[08:48] <steel_lady> _tux, there is nothing to reinstall, it contains only that one line I sent to you
[08:48] <pike_> !nvidia | Bo1
[08:48] <ubotu> Bo1: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:48] <stefg> Drad1k: not all windows games are supported in Linux. (Linux is not Windows). Your options vary from wine to cedega, both projects have application databases where you can look up what runs, and how good
[08:49] <jrib> blind: did you install openssh-server?
[08:49] <Drad1k> This is true, but i know linux can host q4max because I know people who have done it
[08:49] <laserbeak43> whats the diff between an SSID and an ESSID?
[08:49] <steel_lady> _tux, warbler, I am rebooting
[08:49] <Tre1> Hi all, can you recommend a good video cutter for my box...
[08:49] <stefg> Drad1k: so can you ask them how they did it?
[08:49] <_tux> steel_lady: I know but just saying if you were to remove linux-igd although it may disconnect you from xchat and the Internet it may fix the issue though just saying if it will possible to reinstall linux-igd once you removed it or will require the pressence of a internet connection to download it
[08:50] <_tux> I gotcha
[08:50] <Drad1k> They don't want to help me which is why I am here
[08:50] <Bo1> pike:i still don;t undestand can you just tell me step by step
[08:50] <reD_Fox1> tom__666: uhm, what am I looking for?
[08:50] <ltracy> laserbeak43, not too sure
[08:50] <_tux> going to check something real quick
[08:51] <shirish> Jack_Sparrow: thanx
[08:51] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[08:51] <ltracy> laserbeak43, but ESSID is the broadcasted name of the network.. you can get all of them in range by doing iwlist scan
[08:51] <stefg> Drad1k: your best cahnce is to gather information first which route to take (by visiting q4max' website, serching google and so on).
[08:51] <laserbeak43> ltracey ok
[08:51] <laserbeak43> ltracy: ok

[08:55] <CharlieSu> Trying to figure out why when i switched from gentoo to ubuntu i wasn't able to resize splict Screen windows with Ctrl a , - anymore..  anyone?
[08:55] <warbler> _tux: that file she edited had the interfaces blocked
[08:56] <warbler> _tux: couldn't get the auth - no upgrades - maybe
[08:56] <stefg> !keyboard
[08:56] <ubotu> To find out how to switch your keyboard layout, See https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts
[08:56] <stefg> bah!

[08:56] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[08:57] <_tux> warbler: then I guess linux-igd isn't the issue its frustrating myself too
[08:57] <steel_lady> wrabler, _tux I am back. it does not give the error for now, I went to upgrade manually but it didn't do anything
[08:57] <Ares|Work> [14:45:53]  WALLOPS from Md [i=md@freenode/staff/md] : FYI, freenode has just broken the record of 40000 connected users. let's join the party in #defocus
[08:57] <steel_lady> wrabler, _tux: for upgrading over the net I still miss 212MB of space
[08:57] <warbler> steel_lady: instead of the upgrade - what happened?
[08:58] <_tux> steel_lady: "sudo apt-get -f install" tried that?
[08:58] <Bo1> pike_:are you there
[08:58] <Flannel> CharlieSu: ^a - is move to a blank window.  not resize, ^a , is prompt for a window to switch to
[08:58] <sahil> how do i get and install new fonts for Ubuntu to use in OpenOffice
[08:58] <steel_lady> wrabler, it was cooking and at the end didn't do anything: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.
[08:59] <pike_> Bo1: you did it right.  umm id try sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy; sudo nvidia-xconfig  <-- im not sure if your card is legacy or not maybe someone here knows. to recover and just use open driver do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and choose nv or vesa as driver
[08:59] <Drad1k> sorry to be a pain but that doesn't answer my question =*(.. I just want to know how to get a q4max server up
[08:59] <Drad1k> i keep getting linked that one page.. if it has the answers I must keep over looking it
[08:59] <ahmed> is it a must to run exim i should have ubuntu server
[08:59] <_tux> steel_lady: "sudo apt-get upgrade" should upgrade the packages
[08:59] <Bo1> pike_:now what i do?
[09:00] <warbler> update first
[09:00] <_tux> if not then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[09:00] <steel_lady> _tux, not on my ubuntu no!
[09:00] <Flannel> ahmed: No.  Linux makes no differentation between 'server' and 'desktop' installations
[09:00] <LoneShadow> Is there a way to repair an installation, like re-install all the default packages ?
[09:00] <LoneShadow> I am having some problems with my sound stack
[09:00] <ahmed> thank flannel
[09:00] <_tux> steel_lady: did ya give "sudo apt-get -f install" a try
[09:00] <ltracy> laserbeak43, problem solved?
[09:01] <ahmed> could you help me in installing it cause i need setup my first mail server
[09:01] <warbler> steel_lady: in synaptic-repos is option for name of distro preference
[09:01] <steel_lady> _tux of course
[09:01] <reD_Fox1> any ideas why linux would only boot half the time on a thinkpad t20? I shut ubuntu down, and when I boot it, it halts with a blank ("dead") screen right before loading gnome. so then I reboot it manually, and it boots fine. before I added acpi=force, it wouldn't boot back up, ever. I don't get what the difference would be when booting it one time, as opposed to the second time.
[09:01] <LoneShadow> Anyone succesfully uninstalled PulseAudio in here ?
[09:01] <_tux> damn is frustrating me too lol
[09:01] <per> can sombody please tell me how to install a *tar.gz file
[09:02] <ahmed> flannel i have just downloaded it what the next step?
[09:02] <Flannel> ahmed: downloaded what?
[09:02] <steel_lady> wrabler, I don't see that option. it just says 6.10 on one tab
[09:02] <ahmed> i already have downloaded it flannel !
[09:02] <warbler> per: sud apt-get install /address/to/file
[09:02] <Flannel> ahmed: Downloaded what?

[09:04] <reD_Fox1> neverblue: not being rude, just curious
[09:04] <ahmed> ok i will
[09:04] <jrib> per: on ubuntu, you don't download files to install things.  Instead you use a Package Manager.  You should install the mozilla-thunderbird package from the main repository if you want thunderbird.  Don't bother with the tar.gz

[09:05] <steel_lady> _tux I think it is resolved since warbler told me to uncomment those 2 lines but now it still doesn not want to update, just ignores me

[09:06] <Javid> will any old program from repos work on a ppc?
[09:06] <_tux> steel_lady: I think what he meant by uncomment the 2 lines to test what the issue may be still a problem though

[09:09] <Drad1k> I know that cd changes directory, what do I do to list directories... and if I know I want to go into desktop how do I do it quickly?
[09:09] <steel_lady> warbler, when i try to remove things it is refusing for many of them. movie player is one of them
[09:09] <Steger> sahil, thanks
[09:09] <kdub432> Bo1, its unneccessary to reinstall the entire operating system everytime the graphical server won't start.
[09:09] <stefg> sparrw: I doubt that this is possible at all
[09:09] <Flannel> ahmed: Read the page on synaptic, and you'll understand how to use synaptic.
[09:09] <ltracy> laserbeak44, do you see the network when you di iwlist scan?
[09:09] <neverblue> ahmed, you really should read what ppl post to you
[09:09] <jrib> Drad1k: ls -d */   will list directories.   cd ~/Desktop   will get you to the desktop
[09:09] <Bo1> kdub432:well i dont knoe much not 2 reinstall the whole software!
[09:10] <laserbeak44> ltracy: yes
[09:10] <Javid> !care | ompaul
[09:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about care - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:10] <sparrw> stefg: i love that answer  :)
[09:10] <Tomas4543>  Has anyone successfully installed windows .NET Framework 2.0 in wine?
[09:10] <Drad1k> thank you jrib
[09:10] <ltracy> laserbeak44, what seems to be the problem then?
[09:10] <_tux> steel_lady: my best guess would be to still uninstall linux-igd and reinstall it but than again its your choice
[09:10] <kdub432> Bo1, what graphics card, first of all?
[09:10] <per> jrib thanks for the help, but i real want to learn how to do it :)
[09:10] <Flannel> Tomas4543: you'll probably get better response in #winehq
[09:10] <laserbeak44> ltracy: i don't know how to use the network configurator i guess.
[09:10] <ltracy> laserbeak44, when you do iwconfig eth1, does the ESSID match up? And if there is a WEP key or something, does that part look right?
[09:10] <Tomas4543> thanks
[09:10] <Bo1> kdub432:e-GeForce FX5200 PCI
[09:10] <laserbeak44> ltracy: hold on
[09:11] <kdub432> Bo1, join me in #nvidia
[09:11] <Bo1> kk
[09:11] <_tux> steel_lady: it just seems that linux-igd is only required for certain chat clients
[09:11] <reD_Fox1> hmm. would there be a better channel to go to discuss booting issues  on a laptop?
[09:11] <ltracy> laserbeak44, well, I try the network manager once, and sometimes it works and sometimes it ignores me.. when it ignores me, I use the commadn like to set it up and then it works fine.
[09:11] <warbler> steel_lady: sudo update-manager -c doesn't work?
[09:11] <ompaul> !bootoptions | reD_Fox1
[09:11] <ubotu> reD_Fox1: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[09:12] <ahmed> first setup all exim package flannel
[09:12] <Flannel> warbler, steel_lady, gksu not sudo
[09:12] <Bo1> kdub432:am there
[09:12] <hans_> how would i normally mount an usb card reader?
[09:12] <steel_lady> warbler, it works, I just seem to miss some more megas to do the net upgrade
[09:12] <stefg> sparrw: ubuntu (debian) uses xorg for over 2 years. I guess xfree86 and xorg have gone separate ways for so long, so i doubt anything dependendant on xorg will work with xfree86
[09:12] <warbler> steel_lady: apologies - gksu update-manager -c
[09:12] <hans_> first card then usb or usb first then card?
[09:12] <Javid> But, again, will stuff from repos work on powerpc?
[09:13] <Flannel> Javid: the powerPC repos
[09:13] <sparrw> stefg: ubuntu 6.06 used xfree, no?
[09:13] <steel_lady> wrabler, something is missing
[09:13] <n4p1-1> Hi, How do I give Nautilus root rights?
[09:13] <Flannel> sparrw: no
[09:13] <Javid> ooh. awesome.
[09:13] <ahmed> flannel i have selected all exim from synaptic is it like 8 fiels
[09:14] <warbler> stel_lady: one min
[09:14] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: gksudo nautilus?
[09:14] <stefg> sparrw: no... xorg and xfree forked around 2005, and noone's using xfree86 no more
[09:14] <n4p1-1> Nautilus 2.18.1
[09:14] <autumnx> how do i add virtual users to vsftpd server
[09:14] <allorder> a game freezed X and cant kill it, something more i can do ?
[09:14] <Flannel> ahmed: depends on what you want to install.  If you're having trouble with these sorts of questions, you probably might rethink running a mail server.
[09:15] <autumnx> how do i add virtual users to vsftpd server?
[09:15] <ahmed> flannel really iam very new user it's my 1st day on ubuntu i was runing windows
[09:15] <n4p1-1> Carbon nautilus 2.18.1
[09:15] <allorder> a game freezed X and cant kill it, what im suppose to do
[09:15] <drilus> can anyone help me set a static ip to v4 instead of v6 only?
[09:16] <autumnx> how do i add virtual users to vsftpd server?
[09:16] <Flannel> ahmed: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/exim4.html  But again, you *probably* don't want to run a mail server if this is your first day.
[09:16] <ahmed> flannel but my work has stopped suddenly and i need to continue it
[09:16] <WindowsHater> I want play a game ^^....!
[09:16] <Flannel> !repeat | autumnx
[09:16] <gordonjcp> allorder: hit control-alt-backspace to bounce X
[09:16] <ubotu> autumnx: 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
[09:16] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: Why do you need Nautilus to be root?
[09:16] <allorder> gordonjcp there is not other option ?
[09:16] <warbler> steel_lady: try - 'sudo apt-get clean'
[09:17] <gordonjcp> allorder: you could try killing it from a terminal
[09:17] <gordonjcp> autumnx: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=add+virtual+users+to+vsftpd+server&btnG=Google+Search&meta=
[09:17] <allorder> gordonjcp i did it with sudo and it stay open
[09:17] <autumnx> kk i'll check those sites
[09:17] <autumnx> thanks
[09:17] <steel_lady> warble I did million of times and it doesn't do anything
[09:17] <ahmed> flannel it's finished downloading
[09:17] <warbler> steel_lady:k
[09:17] <steel_lady> _tux it can not be reinstalled
[09:18] <ahmed> what the next step i know my questions are silly but really my work will be collapsed
[09:18] <allorder> gordonjcp reboot is my only option ?
[09:18] <gordonjcp> allorder: no, just restart X
[09:18] <steel_lady> _tux and at the end of that topic there is some advice that is insane
[09:18] <allorder> alt+ctrl backspace ?
[09:18] <yaDa> Hello, is there somebody here who can help me set up ventrilo
[09:18] <n4p1-1> Carb0n The tutorial says that I need a text-editor with root rights. Nautilus is the only editor i know. (installed ubuntu yesterday first time)
[09:18] <yaDa> as a server
[09:19] <ahmed> flannel i tried to offer 300$ to get some one install it but i did not find
[09:19] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: :p
[09:19] <laserbeak43> ltracy: sorry if i didnt ask but i pm'd u
[09:19] <_tux> which topic
[09:19] <ahmed> so iam forced to learn it by myself flannel
[09:19] <kekk> n4p1-1, sudo gedit file
[09:19] <kekk> nautilus is not a text editor O.o
[09:19] <Flannel> ahmed: I gave you a page which explains it all
[09:19] <Carb0n> You're grossly mistaken, Nautilus is NOT a text-editor -- it's a file manager
[09:19] <ltracy> laserbeak43, did you see my reply?
[09:19] <drilus> do you have to add ipv4 for static?  because dhcp defaults to it, but static defaults to ipv6
[09:19] <_tux> from my machine which is Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty I can install linux-igd and remove it that's weird
[09:20] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: What was your previous OS?
[09:20] <MTecknology> how can i find out what caused my last log out?
[09:20] <t4m1n0> hello there how can I remove the lower applet, so will have at the bottom just awn ??? this is the screenshot: http://shrani.si/f/33/d4/3C0qlmR/desktop.png
[09:21] <ahmed> flannel it siad E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:21] <ahmed> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:21] <Flannel> ahmed: close synaptic.  You can only have one package manager open
[09:21] <Balachmar> Hi, I am logged in on a remote computer through ssh, and I am compiling something over there, how can I make sure the compiling continues when I log out?
[09:21] <kekk> t4m1n0, right click on the panel > Delet this panel
[09:21] <Flannel> t4m1n0: that's not an applet, it's just the lower panel, just right click and delete
[09:21] <n4p1-1> Carb0n windows xp....
[09:21] <stefg> !screen | Balachmar
[09:22] <ubotu> Balachmar: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[09:22] <_tux> steel_lady: was there a link to the topic
[09:22] <MTecknology> anybody? please - i really need to know what caused my last logout... i don't even know if an error caused it or not
[09:22] <sahil> should'nt this command 'sudo chmod 755 -R '/usr/share/fonts/truetype' change the permissions for this folder so that i can read and write
[09:22] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: Nautilus is similar to the Windows explorer.  A text editor is what is similar to Notepad
[09:22] <stefg> Balachmar: so if you haven't prepared your ssh sesion, the compile will stop when you close your ssh session
[09:23] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: Ubuntu has GEdit as a default text editor
[09:23] <Flannel> sahil: no.  6 is rw 5 is rx.  But, you probably don't want to recursively chmod it anyway.  Use sudo to modify system files
[09:23] <Balachmar> stefg: ok, then I will abort it now
[09:23] <MTecknology> stefg, that's one of my main uses for gnu screen
[09:23] <ahmed> now iam trying to configure it
[09:23] <Balachmar> stefg: and restart my ssh session
[09:23] <ahmed> flannel now iam trying to config
[09:23] <sahil> Flannel, im  not sure i understand
[09:23] <futile> I ran memtest 86 and it said I have errors... 0007 0000 and so on is this motherboard or ram itself(stick)
[09:23] <stefg> Balachmar: read about and use screen... one of the coolest tools in universe
[09:24] <sahil> Flannel, i need permissions to write to that directory, and it says that i don't have the permissions
[09:24] <Flannel> ahmed: That's on that page too.  However, I strongly suggest you *dont* run a mail server until you do some more research about the configuration
[09:24] <t4m1n0> Flannel: in case that I wanna the lower pannel back, how can I do this ?
[09:24] <Flannel> sahil: Right, use sudo to do the writing/whatevder
[09:24] <Balachmar> stefg: yes, but could you help me out with a command to prepare my ssh session?
[09:24] <ahmed> many thanks flannel
[09:24] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: It's not advisable to do *anything* as root, no matter what the tutorial says.
[09:24] <sahil> Flannel, i want to just drag and drop stuff in there
[09:24] <Flannel> t4m1n0: right click near the bottom of the screen, "add panel" then right click on that panel "Add to panel" to add stuff
[09:24] <stefg> Balachmar: read above
[09:24] <lubosz> how do i open port 80 with iptables?
[09:24] <bk1> ey
[09:24] <Flannel> lubosz: you probably don't need to
[09:24] <futile> I ran memtest 86 and it said I have errors... 0007 0000 and so on is this motherboard or ram itself(stick)
[09:24] <stefg> !screen | Balachmar
[09:25] <ubotu> Balachmar: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[09:25] <bk1> anyone who can help me installing RT2500 drivers ?
[09:25] <warbler> steel_lady: doing some reading suggests that you are not alone in this
[09:25] <neverblue> futile, sorry, I missed the question in your post
[09:25] <n4p1-1> Carb0n youre right... clicked in the wrong window on info
[09:25] <futile> I ran memtest 86 and it said I have errors... 0007 0000 and so on is this motherboard or ram itself(stick)
[09:25] <Balachmar> stefg: I am reading it, but I don't see anything about ssh
[09:25] <neverblue> !patience | futile
[09:25] <ubotu> futile: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:25] <Flannel> sahil: alright, then use sudo (for graphical programs, gksu) to open nautilus: alt-f2, `gksu nautilus` then do it (and close that window AS SOON AS you're done)
[09:25] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: :)
[09:25] <lubosz> Flannel: nmap with my lan ip: All 1697 scanned ports on santa-monkey (192.168.2.26) are filtered
[09:25] <Balachmar> so I guess you meant that I had to use screen before I went compiling
[09:25] <warbler> steel_lady: synaptic to remove stuff to make space is all for now - but will read more
[09:25] <neverblue> bk1, what type of hardware?
[09:25] <futile> sorry...
[09:26] <Flannel> lubosz: So?  Are you trying to run apache?
[09:26] <futile> new to this
[09:26] <Balachmar> And not do something special with ssh
[09:26] <bk1> RT2500 Ralink Chipset
[09:26] <Flannel> Balachmar: correct
[09:26] <bk1> Amd 64 x2
[09:26] <lubosz> Flannel: yes, firefox gets a timeout with my lan ip, localhost works
[09:26] <bk1> Geforce 7600
[09:26] <futile> screen was moving fas felt I was getting overlooked....
[09:26] <neverblue> bk1, please keep your posts to a single line, thanks
[09:26] <futile> sorry
[09:26] <bk1> sry
[09:26] <Balachmar> Flannel: ok thanks, I already have heard about screen, never actually used it though
[09:26] <stefg> Balachmar: you run your ssh session in a 'screen'd' teminal. the ssh host won't know when you close your terminal, and you can pick up the screen session later (even locally :-) )
[09:27] <neverblue> bk1, you have drivers setup for you Geforce already ?
[09:27] <_Jaak_> Will gutsy run from usb disk in persistance mode?
[09:27] <Flannel> lubosz: I think your LAN IP is wrong then.  Unless you've modified apache to bind to localhost.  Either way, iptables isn't the issue (unless you've previously blocked it); it isn't blocked by default
[09:27] <File13> IntuitiveNipple: you there?
[09:27] <bk1> no, do I have to install them before my wireless drivers ?
[09:27] <sahil> Flannel, isn't there a way to just change the permission on the entire folder so i can just open it up and put stuff into it whenever i want by just dragging and dropping
[09:27] <Balachmar> @stefg so I should run screen locally? I thought I should use screen on the remote server
[09:27] <kdub432> _Jaak_: if i recall, i had trouble getting it to run in persistent mode, live mode worked fine
[09:27] <stefg> Balachmar: right
[09:27] <neverblue> bk1, i didnt realize until now its a wireless driver setup you are requiring
[09:28] <neverblue> !wireless | bk1
[09:28] <ubotu> bk1: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:28] <Flannel> sahil: you can.  But that's the wrong way (and a very dangerous way) to do it.
[09:28] <_Jaak_> kdub432, gutsy or feisty?
[09:28] <lubosz> Flannel: i didn't block iptables, how do i unbind apache from localhost?
[09:28] <velko> does anybody knows a good ext3 driver for windows?
[09:28] <stefg> Balachmar: you need need screen on the remote box
[09:28] <kolmilludo> hey could somebody help me I have  a compaq laptop of the v2000 series, and ubuntu doesnt have the graphic drivers neither the wireless drivers im kind of new in linux an i need help
[09:28] <Flannel> lubosz: Did you modify apaches config at all?
[09:28] <bk1> I already read the docu but didn't help much
[09:28] <Balachmar> The box doesn;t have screen... :S
[09:28] <neverblue> !wireless | kolmilludo
[09:28] <ubotu> kolmilludo: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:28] <sahil> Flannel, why is it dangerous, or wrong. I am the only person who uses this laptop
[09:28] <_Jaak_> kdub432, i had feisty run in persistance mode with a patched version, but it wasn't great...
[09:28] <IntuitiveNipple> what is this, a sance? 'knock once for yes, twice for no' :p
[09:28] <lubosz> Flannel: no, but i get the message: "apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName" when apache starts
[09:29] <neverblue> bk1, check the ubuntu forums, maybe they can give some insight
[09:29] <sahil> Flannel, plus it looks easier when non-linux people do it. Do you know how to do it?
[09:29] <Flannel> lubosz: ah.  Alright, you'll need to add that to your config.  That's new to feisty, although that shouldn't cause that issue.  I suppose it might though.
[09:29] <ltracy> laserbeak43, you gone?
[09:29] <Balachmar> @stefg it isn't a ubuntu box, it is in fact a mybook world
[09:29] <kolmilludo> no
[09:29] <laserbeak43> ltracy: no i'm here
[09:29] <mortuis99> what is a good HTML editor?
[09:29] <laserbeak43> did u get my pm?
[09:29] <ltracy> laserbeak43, yeah, I responded
[09:29] <kolmilludo> ok and what obout the ati radeon express 200m drivers
[09:30] <kbrooks> What is security?
[09:30] <Flannel> sahil: Linux is not windows.  Linux is inheritly more secure precisely because regular users can't modify system directories.
[09:30] <ltracy> laserbeak43, did youg et that? :)
[09:30] <kdub432> _Jaak_: yeah, I'm only interested in live mode to install really (no cd drive) so i havent messed with persistent much
[09:30] <laserbeak43> ltracy:  i dont see the response
[09:30] <Carb0n> mortuis99: Emacs? Although asking such a question itself is a flame bait
[09:30] <Exteris> mortuis99, bluefish
[09:30] <sahil> Flannel, i would like to modify the fonts directory, i think its safe can you tell me how to do it?
[09:30] <_Jaak_> is there a gutsy channel?
[09:30] <ahmed> i have setup exim mail server
[09:30] <mortuis99> i know i am tryig to look at a few of them
[09:30] <Flannel> _Jaak_: #ubuntu+1
[09:30] <_tux> Well I am off take it easy everybody
[09:31] <ahmed> could any one configure it with me ???
[09:31] <Flannel> sahil: I already told you.  5 is rx, 6 is rw.  But again, you really don't want to do it that way.
[09:31] <stefg> Balachmar: screen is available on many platforms. See the link. But if you can't get the ssh-server to run screen, there's not much you can do
[09:31] <ltracy> laserbeak43, interesting.. you get nothing?
[09:31] <mortuis99> what i am wanting is somehting with some user documentation vs developer docs
[09:31] <Balachmar> @stefg I'll download and install screen then
[09:31] <ferric84> barring any variables, I can shrink a disk with XP on it by 10GB and install ubuntu on that 10GB, yes?
[09:32] <Flannel> ferric84: yes
[09:32] <laserbeak43> ltracy: nothing. trying this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990
[09:32] <laserbeak43> gotta reboot
[09:32] <warbler> steel_lady: reading stuff - try gksu "update-manager -c" with the quotes - ubuntu geeks list it like that
[09:32] <ltracy> laserbeak43, try  joining #woohoo
[09:32] <ltracy> how sad.. an easy fix really
[09:32] <ferric84> so "shrinking" is the ubuntu term for creating a partition?
[09:32] <sahil> Flannel, im sorry i still don't quite get what you want me to do. do you want me to enter "sudo chmod 766 'usr/share/fonts/'
[09:33] <Flannel> ferric84: No.  shrinking would be to shrink the XP partition by 10GB, which would leave 10GB of unallocated space, which you'd create a partition in to use.
[09:33] <ferric84> ahh, now it makes sense
[09:33] <ferric84> thanks
[09:33] <thiebaude> hi everyone.How do I download gutsy from the terminal?
[09:33] <Flannel> sahil: No, I don't want you to do that.  But your previous command was correct except for the fact that you were using 5 (r-x) instead of 6 (rw-)

[09:38] <ubotu> 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
[09:38] <n4p1-1> xorg.conf  I want to add some extra buttons
[09:38] <n4p1-1> Carb0n xorg.conf  I want to add some extra buttons
[09:38] <sahil> Flannel, can you tell me the correct command to type?
[09:38] <nandemonai> stifler, Firestarter can handle that pretty well if you want a gui.
[09:38] <Flannel> sahil: You had it right in your original command: chmod -R 766 /path/to/whatever
[09:38] <stifler> nandemonai
[09:38] <stifler> thanks
[09:39] <nandemonai> stifler, No worries. Ubuntuforums has heaps of guides if you don't suss it out.
[09:39] <Carb0n> n4p1-1: Right.  Do a "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf".  Only if you know what you're doing
[09:39] <sahil> Flannel, thank you. I am testing it now, will let you know if it works
[09:40] <laserbeak43> ltracy:  this is very annoying
[09:40] <laserbeak43> that did absolutely nothing
[09:40] <sahil> Flannel, that did not work, and in fact it changed all the icons in that folder and did not allow me to access them
[09:41] <johnyflench> I installed Ubuntu just now and during installation I partitioned my drive manually and set aside 14gig for Ubuntu now when I run my windows xp it gives me a blue screen of death.  Anyone knows what could that be?
[09:41] <ltracy> laserbeak43, join the channel #woohoo
[09:41] <n4p1-1> Carb0n At this time I've got no idea what I'm doing :D I do trust ubuntuusers. Hope thats no mistake :P
[09:42] <Paddy_EIRE> hey I get what can only be descibed as a system beep when I shutdown my laptop.. this has only started to happen recently and I have made no changes worth consideration.  Would you know what this might indicate
[09:42] <ConstyXIV> if i were to "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/hda1", would that render everything on the driver un-recoverable?
[09:42] <stefg> johnyflench: what exactly did you do? have you ran a windows chkdsk on your XP drive already?
[09:42] <ConstyXIV> *drive
[09:43] <BlueXero> cya
[09:44] <neverblue> johnyflench, are you able to boot into Ubuntu, but not Windows ?
[09:44] <johnyflench> yes neverblue
[09:44] <neverblue> johnyflench, then you should be fine :)
[09:44] <stefg> hehe
[09:44] <neverblue> johnyflench, did you use the windows partition, to create the ubuntu partition?
[09:44] <bruenig> they are pretty similar anyways
[09:45] <johnyflench> stefg: how do I run chkdsk?
[09:45] <FFForever> What is the difference from ubuntu server edition and ubuntu regular edition?
[09:45] <neverblue> johnyflench, u should probably reply to my question first
[09:45] <bruenig> FFForever, default packages
[09:45] <FFForever> like?
[09:45] <neverblue> FFForever, server doesnt have a 'window manager' really
[09:45] <bruenig> FFForever, no gnome
[09:45] <FFForever> that's it + the lampp?
[09:46] <ConstyXIV> FFForever: like no gui by default, but ships with webservers and etc.
[09:46] <FFForever> kool thanks :D
[09:46] <bruenig> FFForever, lamp is an install option but not necessarily
[09:46] <mugen> hi
[09:46] <stefg> johnyflench: from the windows install CD. But be aware that windows support is in ##windows, in a Linux channel there's no windows expertise
[09:46] <ConstyXIV> FFForever: that's about it.  you can always install a gui on the server, and vice versa
[09:46] <bruenig> he's gone
[09:46] <neverblue> stefg, speak for yourself :P
[09:46] <thiebaude> lol
[09:46] <johnyflench> neverblue I'm not sure what you mean but I have a hard drive 60gig and when I was installing Ubuntu it gave me an option to wipe out the whole drive and install ubuntu, to set aside certain percentage of a drive for Ubuntu or to manually install partitions (if I can rmember correctly)
[09:47] <bruenig> johnyflench, always pick manual
[09:47] <neverblue> johnyflench, well, you can seperate a HD into partitions
[09:47] <johnyflench> oh ok stefg, thanks a lot
[09:47] <Morphera> is there a way to "unlock" this memory card so Ubuntu can write to it... or reformat it?
[09:47] <neverblue> johnyflench, and those parititons can be set to the entire drive, or of various sizes
[09:47] <batrix> anyone know how to get sound with the tv tuner card leadtek winfast 2000 xp rm i tried several things like putting the line out from the tuner card to the line in on the sound card and no luck
[09:47] <johnyflench> so what I did is I went to set partitions manually
[09:48] <Morphera> It's showing in ubuntu as "Read Only"... but it can be written to by other systems.
[09:48] <johnyflench> I chose that option
[09:48] <bruenig> Morphera, what filesystem
[09:48] <Morphera> FAT
[09:48] <sparrw> supposedly there are sources for the *USB* driver for my elotouch touchscreen for recent linux kernels and x.org.  can anyone help me find them?  ive found binary drivers for old kernels, and source for the serial driver (which i cant find a use for).  help?
[09:48] <Morphera> FAT16 ^
[09:48] <LinuxProbie> Hey folks... How would I fix being unable to see any of the computers in my local network? The wierd thing is that I can access them my going "smb://computername" but they don't show up in the network window.
[09:48] <neverblue> johnyflench, am I wasting my time replying to your questions ?
[09:48] <bruenig> Morphera, try writing to it with a better privileged user, root perhaps
[09:48] <johnyflench> why neverblue?
[09:48] <neverblue> because I dont want to reply/explain the entire response you need
[09:49] <Morphera> It was working earlier bruenig, I must have accidently removed it before it was done unmounting...
[09:49] <neverblue> unless you want to hear it
[09:49] <johnyflench> I do
[09:49] <bruenig> Morphera, there is no logical basis for thinking that your removing before umount would cause that
[09:49] <LinuxProbie> The only computers I can see in the windows network window are the ubuntu computer, and the computer I have running Server 2003.
[09:50] <ket-warrior> I cant get skype working on 64 bit ubuntu (feisty)
[09:50] <neverblue> johnyflench, if you used the entire partition (an example) for windows, then you manually formatted the drive for Ubuntu, you would lost the Windows data, as your changing the partition tables on the drive
[09:50] <Morphera> Someone in this channel earlier said it can do it.
[09:50] <bruenig> ket-warrior, did you install a 64 bit version?
[09:50] <LinuxProbie> Which means that I'm mossing four computers on the network list.
[09:50] <ipx> #!/bin/bash
[09:50] <ipx> WINEDEBUG=fixme-all wine C:/Program\ Files/Steam/Steam.exe -fullscreen \
[09:50] <ipx>     -width 1024 -height 768 -applaunch 220 \
[09:50] <neverblue> s/lost/lose/
[09:50] <ipx> Where do i put these kind of code?
[09:50] <ket-warrior> bruenig: is there a 64 bit version?
[09:50] <neverblue> ipx, #wine-hq
[09:50] <LinuxProbie> ipx: in a text file.
[09:50] <neverblue> ops, i mean #winehq
[09:50] <bruenig> ket-warrior, I don't know if there is or isn't, skype is proprietary, what exactly did you install
[09:51] <mugen> i'm sorry
[09:51] <ipx> LinuxProbie: ive been googling for it alot, can you pleace help me with it?
[09:51] <Morphera> What I need to know is if there is a way to get Ubuntu to actually allow me to write to it and reformat it into the FAT32.
[09:51] <neverblue> johnyflench, so how was your partitions setup before you installed Ubuntu ?
[09:51] <ipx> neverblue: thats not the question, its not related to wine
[09:51] <Thegeektechnique> Hello my friends,,, has anyone gotten the restricted drivers/desktop effects working on a laptop with NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go] ? I solved the whole "black screen of death" easily enough, and then all the effects work, but the resolution is stuck at 800x600 and there is a black bar about a half an inch thick on the right side of the screen
[09:51] <bruenig> ipx, if that is all that there is, that isn't going to do anything
[09:51] <bruenig> ipx, probably err like crazy
[09:51] <kazim59> ipx: those lines are related to configuration of wine
[09:51] <ket-warrior> bruenig; sudo dpkg -r --force-architecture skype-debian_1.4.0.99-1_i386.deb
[09:51] <mugen> i have amd athlon 64. if i install ubuntu for amd64 - it will change anything?
[09:52] <raj> Hi can some one help. I have removed the bottom panel showing all the tasks. How can I restore it?
[09:52] <johnyflench> I don't know, NTFS?!
[09:52] <bruenig> ket-warrior, well there is your problem, skype is probably compiled against 32 bit libs
[09:52] <yaDa> Question if I want to share things over the network from my PC at home to my linux server (which will be on LAN) .. how can I view the files on my computer so I can get them on my linux computer
[09:52] <ipx> kazim59: but the answer is not
[09:52] <eldkraft> I'm running a dualboot, SUSE [hda2]  and Ubuntu [hda3]  with a shared Home partition [hda4] . Now, I want to get rid of SUSE, is it just to format hda2 and edit /boot/grub/meny.lst so it doesn't show at the startup menu and voila?
[09:52] <cup> Alguien podria decirme como sincronizar pocket pc con ubuntu
[09:52] <kazim59> ipx: can you explain the problem?
[09:52] <neverblue> johnyflench, did you have your entire drive with windows, on one partition ?
[09:52] <facugaich> !es > cup
[09:52] <johnyflench> yes
[09:52] <johnyflench> yes I did
[09:52] <Thegeektechnique>  Hello my friends,,, has anyone gotten the restricted drivers/desktop effects working on a laptop with NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go] ? I solved the whole "black screen of death" easily enough, and then all the effects work, but the resolution is stuck at 800x600 and there is a black bar about a half an inch thick on the right side of the screen
[09:53] <neverblue> johnyflench, then you have lost your windows install
[09:53] <ltracy> laserbeak43, you still here?
[09:53] <pike_> eldkraft: pretty much
[09:53] <ket-warrior> bruenig: I was told it would work here
[09:53] <Morphera> bruenig, do you have any suggestions on how to get ubuntu to actually allow me to write to the card?
[09:53] <neverblue> johnyflench, as you formatted your drive when you installed Ubuntu
[09:53] <jaxt0r> I just installed Feisty on a brand new machine and everything is working well except when I launch apps in Gnome they all take like 10 seconds to start... even Terminal and Text Editor.  My first instinct was to check /etc/hosts but everything looks okay there.  I was using Fedora last week and it was lightning... my machine has a Q6600 and 8GB of RAM, it shouldn't be slow loading terminal.  Any ideas?
[09:53] <pike_> eldkraft: suse isnt hda4 im assuming
[09:53] <johnyflench> but when I installed Ubuntu I took 14gigs of that partition and it showed it as a seperate partition in Ubuntu install
[09:53] <neverblue> johnyflench, so you would have to reinstall windows, then reinstall Ubuntu to have a dual boot system, which is what looks like you want
[09:53] <bruenig> ket-warrior, well people in here don't always know what they are talking about or if they do aren't always right
[09:53] <eldkraft> pike_:no that is the shared home partition.
[09:54] <johnyflench> then I formated in xt3 (I think)
[09:54] <bruenig> ket-warrior, myself included
[09:54] <t4m1n0> how can I check what is using apt ??
[09:54] <stefg> eldkraft: generally it's as simple as that. the only point is to look which partition grub uses for its config file. if grubs looks at SuSE's partition you'll gett an error 17 if you nuke that partititon
[09:54] <Distro^Junkie> ext3
[09:54] <neverblue> johnyflench, you cannot just 'pick' out a partition, you would have to use Partition Magic to not lose any data
[09:54] <kazim59> ipx: WINEDEBUG seems to be an enviroment variable... try to set it and proceed
[09:54] <Bayo> fff
[09:54] <t4m1n0> couse  Ican't install a package ... couse something is using apt
[09:54] <neverblue> johnyflench, so you have lost all your windows data
[09:54] <ipx> kazim59: i got a bash startup-script from a howto (i can link it) and i want to use it, but dont know how. the only info i got was that text
[09:55] <kazim59> ipx: link
[09:55] <dbrewer_rjr> i installed tomcat with the lamp server feisty. the localhost:8180 comes up. what else do i have to do to run a jsp in an apache webpage directory? test.jsp is not working. is ti listening on the wrong port?
[09:55] <bruenig> kazim59, it looks to me like the guy is trying to have the output of that command stored in winedebug perhaps so he can echo it later if need be, however the syntax is all messed up
[09:55] <Morphera> I've been abandoned aain?
[09:55] <kevev> hey all
[09:55] <bruenig> WINEDEBUG
[09:55] <Thegeektechnique>  Hello my friends,,, has anyone gotten the restricted drivers/desktop effects working on a laptop with NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go] ? I solved the whole "black screen of death" easily enough, and then all the effects work, but the resolution is stuck at 800x600 and there is a black bar about a half an inch thick on the right side of the screen
[09:55] <Redneck|Ubuntu> ok
[09:55] <Redneck|Ubuntu> need help
[09:55] <ipx> kazim59: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam#preface
[09:55] <johnyflench> neverblue so why does my hard drive in ubuntu shows 15gigs when my hard drive is 60 gigs
[09:55] <kazim59> bruenig: no, WINEDEBUG is an environment variable set (that wine looks at)
[09:55] <bruenig> !repeat | Thegeektechnique
[09:55] <ipx> kazim59: do you understand now? :)
[09:55] <eldkraft> stefg: I've been in /boot/grub/menu.lst in both SUSE and Ubuntu partition and it seems like the Ubuntu menu.lst is the proper one. There is not much text at all in the SUSE menu.lst
[09:55] <kevev> anyone get alsa working with sb450 in the Gateway MT3705 Laptop???
[09:55] <Redneck|Ubuntu> i am going on a plane trip tomorrow and need to disable some devices to conserve some battery power
[09:55] <Redneck|Ubuntu> where would i go do that
[09:55] <neverblue> johnyflench, you partitioned space for Ubuntu
[09:55] <Redneck|Ubuntu> or do i need to do that kind of stuff in command line
[09:56] <bruenig> kazim59, oh so it is strictly optional though?
[09:56] <ubotu> Thegeektechnique: 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
[09:56] <neverblue> johnyflench, but in doing so, you lose all your data
[09:56] <yaDa> Question if I want to share things over the network from my PC at home to my linux server (which will be on LAN) .. how can I view the files on my computer so I can get them on my linux computer
[09:56] <kazim59> bruenig: yes
[09:56] <stefg> eldkraft: even if goes wrong it can be recovered from the ubuntu Live CD
[09:56] <dbrewer_rjr> i installed tomcat with the lamp server feisty. the localhost:8180 comes up. what else do i have to do to run a jsp in an apache webpage directory? test.jsp is not working. is it listening on the wrong port?
[09:57] <johnyflench> even though I only partitioned 14gigs
[09:57] <eldkraft> stefg: ah ok, great. guess I'm go then, thank you!
[09:57] <kazim59> ipx: you've to write a script to launch Half Life
[09:57] <LordlLnux> i need the last drupal  theme for ubuntu forum
[09:57] <kazim59> ipx: oh, actually Steam (if you're trying steam)
[09:57] <ipx> kazim59: exactly :)
[09:57] <kazim59> ipx: should I tell you how?
[09:58] <pike_> yaDa: well i personally use sshfs to mount remote directories.  or just use sftp or whatever
[09:58] <ipx> kazim59: that'd be great ^^ Ive already saved it into a file and made it executable
[09:58] <kevev> Anyone get alsa working with the ATI SB450???
[09:58] <kazim59> ipx: execute the file (like ./myscriptfile )
[09:58] <axio> does anyone know how to convert a filename in html entities back to UTF8?
[09:59] <Redneck|Ubuntu> wondering if there was a device manager that i could disable devices and different objects on my laptop to conserve power for a plane trip that I have. any suggestions?
[09:59] <axio> like  VOL28_&#32918;&#37030;.rar
[09:59] <ipx> kazim59: it works
[09:59] <ipx> kazim59: is there any way to add it to your bash, i mean like assign a command (like "steam") to launch that script?
[09:59] <ipx> u understand me?
[09:59] <randy026_> does anyone know where I can get the w32codecs for gusty?
[09:59] <ipx> i want to be able to type steam anywhere
[09:59] <LinuxProbie> axio: right click on it, and rename it to whatever you want.
[09:59] <kazim59> ipx: yes.. its easy
[10:00] <dbrewer_rjr> i installed tomcat with the lamp server feisty. the localhost:8180 comes up. what else do i have to do to run a jsp in an apache webpage directory? test.jsp is not working. is it listening on the wrong port?
[10:00] <Bayo> comon to http://blow.cdb.org
[10:00] <cellofellow> I just put in a Netgear MA311 PCI card. It's got the Prism 2.5rev1 chipset. My system doesn't recognize it as wireless. What do I do?
[10:00] <axio> LinuxProbie: I am doing it for thousands of files, that's inefficient
[10:00] <Morphera> is there a way to "unlock" this memory card so Ubuntu can write to it... or reformat it?
[10:00] <ciga> hi
[10:00] <Morphera> It's showing in ubuntu as "Read Only"... but it can be written to by other systems.
[10:00] <neverblue> johnyflench, no, because you partitioned the space
[10:00] <stefg> randy026_: medibuntu has gutsy repos already. but please ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:00] <neverblue> johnyflench, you should do a bit of research into partitioning
[10:00] <kazim59> ipx: sudo cp myscriptfile /usr/bin/
[10:00] <randy026_> k thx
[10:00] <LinuxProbie> axio: *blink* Eep.... I don't know if there's an eazy way to do that...
[10:01] <ipx> kazim59: its that easy?
[10:01] <kazim59> ipx: now whenever you give the command myscriptfile, it will run steam
[10:01] <ciga> I would like to exclude some directories from searching when I use the find command. How should I do it?
[10:01] <axio> convmv isn't helping...
[10:01] <cellofellow> ipx: you have to do sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/myscriptfile too
[10:01] <facugaich> axio, LinuxProbie: there's a PHP function that does that
[10:01] <pike_> Redneck|Ubuntu: i dont know of a gui. i was thinking of making a little ruby gtk thing that would dim brightness on monitor and toggle wirelss transmit power etc.
[10:01] <ConstyXIV> will "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/sda1" make it impossible to recover data off /dev/sda1?
[10:01] <cellofellow> ipx: it's also better to put it in /usr/local/bin
[10:01] <axio> facugaich: don't have php installed
[10:01] <reD_Fox1> tom__666: was there anything specific you wanted me to look for?
[10:02] <ipx> kazim59: thanks alot!
[10:02] <reD_Fox1> tom__666: (in the Xorg.0.log file)
[10:02] <kazim59> ipx: enjoy gaming...
[10:02] <ipx> cellofellow: already done the first thing. :) Ok, why? Its only for my user?
[10:02] <ipx> kazim59: :)
[10:02] <dbrewer_rjr> i installed tomcat with the lamp server feisty. the localhost:8180 comes up. what else do i have to do to run a jsp in an apache webpage directory? test.jsp is not working. is it listening on the wrong port?
[10:02] <cellofellow> ipx: no, it's just /usr/local is for manually installed stuff, while /usr is for the package manager, gererally.
[10:02] <cellofellow> generally*
[10:03] <Meroigo_> I have a 80 GB harddrive now, when I get a new one, that have more space, can I easily copy everything from the 80 GB to the new one, turn off the computer, take out the 80 one, make the new one master and then turn the computer on and my OS will start as usual, but I have plenty of more space? :P
[10:03] <kazim59> cellofellow: ya i forgot /usr/local/bin... hehe
[10:03] <Morphera> meh... I guess no-one in here is willing to give me any help... all I end up doing is going round in circles with people trying to figure out what the problem that I've already described is... -.-
[10:03] <johnyflench> neverblue so you are saying that I lost everything I had on Win XP forever?
[10:04] <sparrw> i have a problem with -dev packages...  /usr/include/unistd.h and /usr/include/xorg/xf86_ansic.h disagree wbout the definition of xf86usleep (and there are other conflicts)...  help
[10:04] <sparrw> ?
[10:04] <kolmilludo> que tal
[10:05] <ipx> cellofellow: ok thanks :)
[10:05] <kolmilludo> hey I need help to install ati drivers
[10:05] <kazim59> johnyflench: messed up with partition table? try TestDisk to guess it again (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk)
[10:05] <yellow_chicken> how to display multiple desktop background on different workspace in gnome?
[10:06] <jrib> yellow_chicken: google for "wallpapoz"
[10:06] <johnyflench> thanks kazim59 I'm looking into it
[10:06] <dbrewer_rjr> anyone here ever configure tomcat?
[10:06] <jrib> !anyone | dbrewer_rjr
[10:06] <jrib> !ati > kolmilludo (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:06] <ubotu> dbrewer_rjr: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[10:06] <kazim59> johnyflench: download the app, run as root, it will try to find your lost partitions... it will guess a partition table... commit it
[10:06] <dbrewer_rjr> i installed tomcat with the lamp server feisty. the localhost:8180 comes up. what else do i have to do to run a jsp in an apache webpage directory? test.jsp is not working. is it listening on the wrong port?
[10:07] <yellow_chicken> jrib: ok thanks.  i also check synaptic, it's not in there =(
[10:07] <jrib> yellow_chicken: nope, not in synaptic, but it is just a python script
[10:07] <cellofellow> I just put in a Netgear MA311 PCI card. It's got the Prism 2.5rev1 chipset. My system doesn't recognize it as wireless. What do I do?
[10:08] <dbrewer_rjr> grrrr.....
[10:08] <kolmilludo> im kind of new using linux ubuntu doesn't have my ati drivers I have a compaq laptop of the v2000 series
[10:08] <kolmilludo> what can I do to getr 3d desktop
[10:08] <futile> I i ask a question and did not get a response how long should i WAIT TO ASK IT AGAIN??
[10:08] <bkeating> when i execute "mount" none of my NFS mounts show, but they *are* connected. why is this?
[10:08] <reD_Fox1> anyone have any idea why ubuntu would boot correctly after hanging during one boot, and visa versa?
[10:08] <kazim59> futile: ask now
[10:08] <futile> sorry about the caps...
[10:09] <jrib> futile: 15-20 minutes imo
[10:09] <futile> I ran memtest 86 and it said I have errors... 0007 0000 and so on is this motherboard or ram itself(stick)
[10:09] <bkeating> reD_Fox1: a service is probably waiting to either active (ie get network connection) or time out
[10:09] <Bucketface> uh, how do I get zsnes or snes9x to work oon Ubuntu Feisty
[10:09] <Bucketface> ?
[10:09] <t4m1n0> how can I extrac file with extension: .tar.bz2
[10:09] <t4m1n0> extrac=extravt
[10:09] <jrib> t4m1n0: right click -> extract
[10:09] <t4m1n0> extrac=extract
[10:09] <ciga> t4m1n0: tar -xjf
[10:09] <kazim59> futile: are you having problems? (other than memtest says)
[10:09] <yellow_chicken> jrib: i hope i don't screw up my desktop.  i had a problem installing beryl, every time i try to compile or upgarde something that's not listed on synaptic, bad things happen
[10:09] <futile> yea
[10:10] <Vlet> Is there a way to disable ipv6 networking without rebooting?
[10:10] <futile> I put live disk in and that is all that will run
[10:10] <jrib> yellow_chicken: nah, this won't mess anything up, it just watches for your desktop to change and then changes the wallpaper
[10:10] <reD_Fox1> bkeating: so, I shut down ubuntu, then turn the computer back on. the boot process hangs right before loading gnome. I reboot the computer manually, and it then boots fine.
[10:10] <stefg> futile: maybe #hardware can help. Try rearranging the ram sticks in the box, if it#s still the same error number it's probably the board
[10:10] <kazim59> futile: most probably RAM... take your RAM out and test on somebody else's computer
[10:11] <yellow_chicken> jrib: as you said, it's a python script.  so i pray for the minimum damage
[10:11] <futile> ok thanks I will go there....
[10:11] <reD_Fox1> bkeating: where does the service thing you mentioned come into play?
[10:11] <Roham> I have problems with my wlan, worked before, made e reinstall of OS, and now it says that it is disabled?! what should I do?
[10:12] <pike_> Roham: what card?
[10:12] <batrix> anyone here get tvtime fully working with their tuner card?
[10:12] <Roham> pike_: it is a Prism 2.5 wavelan chipset
[10:12] <Roham> Intersil
[10:13] <Roham> pike_: from device manager
[10:13] <stifler> anyone that have a nintendo wii?
[10:13] <Roham> pike_: when i type the **hw command, next to the NIC it says disabled
[10:14] <Roham> pike_: it is a laptop, HP pavilion... it has a on/off wlan button, but I never used it before... and it worked for 2 days ago before the reinstall of the OS
[10:15] <Roham> the button should be software based
[10:15] <ConstyXIV> if you "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/sda1", is it possible for anyone to get that data back?
[10:15] <kazim59> Roham: maybe you need packages...
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> its a button ... its hardware. Switch it on, or disable it from the bios (if its an option)
[10:15] <Bucketface> How do I install zsnes and make it work?
[10:16] <kazim59> ConstyXIV: nice!
[10:16] <vas> hey can you fix menus on the panels to be activated through certain hotkeys

[10:17] <fyrestrtr> then switch it on?
[10:17] <nandemonai> Bucketface, http://www.google.com/search?q=zsnes+ubuntu&inputsubmit1=Search
[10:17] <Roham> kazim59: wait gonna try to press it now and type in the command again
[10:17] <ConstyXIV> kazim59: no, i didn't run it by accident.  i was wondering if i could intentionally wipe a drive (to be unrecoverable) like that

[10:17] <ket-warrior> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory

[10:23] <jrib> c01100011: as your user, they go to ~/.icons/
[10:23] <reD_Fox1> kazim59: it hangs on a blank ("dead") screen
[10:23] <axio> is iconv able to convert html entity to utf8?
[10:23] <reD_Fox1> kazim59: it appears to be just as gnome is loading
[10:24] <c01100011> jrib, ahh, thanks. are user installed icon themes accessible to other users ? or should i throw it in /usr/share/icons ?

[10:39] <kazim59> myusrnm: maybe filesystem is corrupted... do you've useful data on the usb that you want to protect?

[10:52] <ProN00b> is there any application to export windows from my ubuntu box to my windows box over the network ?
[10:52] <medfly> DARKGuy, what do you mean most of the time? im wondering if the drivers ubuntu uses are the openchrome ones
[10:52] <DARKGuy> I don't think so
[10:53] <DARKGuy> you have to get openchrome manually
[10:53] <kazim59> myusrnm: is the drive now working?
[10:53] <medfly> DARKGuy, great. do you know if i can get rid of the current ones and use openchrome?

[10:53] <arghh2D2> cyril__fr: i see nothing on a synaptic menu called 'options' and my list of repositories is only for the install cdrom.
[10:53] <medfly> DARKGuy, mainly, how do i get rid of the current ones?

[10:55] <Roham> Jack_Sparrow: how can I open it then?
[10:55] <Jack_Sparrow> arghh2D2: remove the # in fromt of the requested repo in your sources.list
[10:55] <cheeseboy> arghh2D2 manually edit your source list
[10:55] <medfly> DARKGuy, hey, im trying to get anything with 3d to not crash my computer.
[10:55] <kazim59> I want to make changes to /usr/src/linux-header ... kernel.. and recompile it... is it safe?
[10:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Roham: Something is seriously wrong if you cant open/read a file with sudo/root user status
[10:55] <DARKGuy> medfly: does it crash when you run 3d stuff?
[10:56] <DARKGuy> medfly: say, screensavers or something?
[10:56] <arghh2D2> Jack_Sparrow: cheeseboy, where do i find my sources list?
[10:56] <GeoPeo> good installation guide for 7.x using downloaded ISo image?
[10:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Roham: You can run live and read it..but that isnt the issue really..
[10:56] <kazim59> !kernel
[10:56] <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

[10:57] <arghh2D2> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[10:57] <kazim59> myusrnm: ok... but your disk has got just too many bad sectors... :(
[10:57] <medfly> DARKGuy, yeah, it crashes when i run 3d stuff. i dont use screensavers, but games. sometimes even when just playing the intro of the games
[10:57] <ionstorm> i need some advice for my site http://ubuntu-unleashed.blogspot.com what should I do with the formatting?
[10:57] <bruenig> !ot | ionstorm
[10:57] <ubotu> ionstorm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:57] <ionstorm> where is the offtopic chan?
[10:58] <ionstorm> k
[10:58] <DARKGuy> medfly: looks like a common ubuntu issue... mine has the same problems
[10:58] <ionstorm> thnx
[10:58] <DARKGuy> medfly: both laptop and desktop pc @ work
[10:58] <Nikkolai> Anyone running AMD64 Feisty having some mouse/keyboard issue? All my speakers, keyboard,mice run on usb and when I encode or play 3D games, the fan turns on and my mouse freezes. If I exit the game, both mouse and keyboard freezes. Any ideas?
[10:58] <medfly> DARKGuy, oh? what card/
[10:58] <regis_> i can't findout myself the programs to use with an uvc camera because http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=Linux+UVC is down
[10:58] <cyril__fr> you can add or remove universe repositories
[10:58] <bruenig> ionstorm, there are native applications that do that by the way, devede for instance
[10:58] <DARKGuy> medfly: doesn't happen on Windows so it's an ubuntu issue definitely
[10:58] <cyril__fr> or with commands lines
[10:58] <DARKGuy> medfly: VIA S3 UniChrome Pro IGP
[10:58] <myusrnm> kazim59: why'd you think i lived near dehli anyways?
[10:58] <ionstorm> bruenig, ok i'll add that
[10:59] <cyril__fr> by editing  /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:59] <kazim59> myusrnm: well your name
[10:59] <medfly> DARKGuy, well, what chipset?
[10:59] <juest> hello,   when i use the free wireless internet at my school,     can they check where i've gone, what i transfered, etc?
[10:59] <DARKGuy> medfly: K8M800
[10:59] <Roham> Jack_Sparrow: weird fresh OS... it is a driver I try to open... because my wlan is not working and I think its because of the kill switch... and I found a 'state' file which has the value 0
[10:59] <Nikkolai> lol must be illegal...
[10:59] <medfly> juest, if they want
[10:59] <Nikkolai> j/k
[10:59] <medfly> DARKGuy, same thing here man. good to know it works fine on windows
[11:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Roham: good luck with that... I need to eat.....
[11:00] <DARKGuy> medfly: and hell it does, UT2004, CS 1.6 and WoW say it works ;)
[11:00] <medfly> DARKGuy, actually that card is notorious for not working well with 3d acceleration on non-windows operation systems.
[11:00] <reallyjoel> Do one need anything else then mpeglib to be able to play mp3's in a media player?
[11:00] <medfly> DARKGuy, woaah. thats great to know
[11:00] <medfly> DARKGuy, :-)
[11:00] <DARKGuy> medfly: yeah, I bet it's the driver, but dunno what's the problem, and no one seems to be wanting to fix it, nor I know how to help XD
[11:00] <DARKGuy> medfly: :)
[11:00] <sk1t3lles>  when I have ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp enabled for kdm X11 still continues to listen on the tcp port 6001 why is this? anyone have an idea to what is going on?
[11:01] <regis_> anyone for my very simple uvc problem?
[11:01] <medfly> DARKGuy, i was thinking of somehow helping the guys that are working on a driver for linux at #openchrome and they need me to use their driver to be ab le to check it
[11:01] <Symons|offic1> Anyone know where the bit torrent program is located?
[11:01] <steveatlocalhost> hey
[11:01] <miketalanca> I have quite a large problem. I was moving some things between two hard drives and Konqueror stopped responding. So, I went for the GUI restart, but after the screen went black, nothing happened. So I restarted the machine, and now i get no login.
[11:01] <miketalanca>  <miketalanca> The "nvidia" screen comes up to show tha the drivers are working, but nothing more.
[11:01] <DARKGuy> medfly: try to get the driver using the link I gave you then
[11:01] <miketalanca> I'm using Kubuntu obviously
[11:01] <medfly> DARKGuy, i am :-) kinda odd theyre asking me to use a package that doesnt exist..
[11:01] <kekk> is there a way to disable my mouse (cut off power to it) after a certain period of time and then enable it by pressing a key on the keyboard?
[11:01] <DARKGuy> medfly: o.O..... lol
[11:01] <DARKGuy> medfly: how so?
[11:02] <medfly> DARKGuy, on that website. theres two pathways, one is to get a package from the package system, and it just doesnt exist
[11:02] <DARKGuy> medfly: nah, try to get it from SVN
[11:02] <DARKGuy> the package won't work
[11:02] <medfly> DARKGuy, i am :-)
[11:03] <DARKGuy> medfly: and follow the instructions for K8M800 chipset :P
[11:03] <sk1t3lles>  when I have ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp enabled for kdm X11 still continues to listen on the tcp port 6001 why is this? anyone have an idea to what is going on?
[11:03] <SeveredCross> Is it listening at localhost:6001?
[11:03] <ionstorm> I think ubuntu should ship free cd's to every household like aol did
[11:03] <ionstorm> lol
[11:03] <GeoPeo> anyone faced issues with display getting freezed during start of installation?
[11:03] <SeveredCross> Actually...Even at localhost:6001 -nolisten tcp should override that.
[11:03] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[11:03] <DARKGuy> ionstorm: great idea XD
[11:04] <MotivationNow> Im trying to install this tarball. and when i run the ./configure command i get this "configure: error: gretools needs GTK 1.2.3 or higher" anyone know what package needs to be installed to fix this?
[11:04] <Husio> hello
[11:04] <Husio> any idea what's going on with gtk2-aqg patch?
[11:04] <Husio> *gtk2-aqd
[11:04] <qazibasit> hi guys
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> MotivationNow: probably gtk-dev
[11:04] <sk1t3lles>  when I have ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp enabled for kdm X11 still continues to listen on the tcp port 6001 why is this? anyone have an idea to what is going on?
[11:05] <qazibasit> want to know how can i expand my drive with linux installed
[11:05] <miketalanca> I have quite a large problem. I was moving some things between two hard drives and Konqueror (I am using Kubuntu) stopped responding...so I restarted X.
[11:05] <Prowler_1> any SoundBlaster Live Driver for linux ?
[11:05] <miketalanca> Nothing happened; a black screen, so I restarted the system.
[11:05] <qazibasit> like i want to move my home folder to a different partition
[11:05] <miketalanca> Now I get no login.
[11:05] <AhmedShaikhM> I am using Intel Celeron, with 256 RAM, and installaing through Ubuntu CD (downloaded ISO from ubuntu website) and seeing blank screen, though I have wait more than 10 _minutes_ but nothing happened
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: you need to do it from the livecd.
[11:05] <qazibasit> what do you mean
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> AhmedShaikhM: what was the last thing you saw?
[11:06] <goofykinky> hi, i have a question i've tried to set up my desktop resolution to 1440 x 1990 (wide screen) my monitor in 17'' ,but i cant any ideas? my desktop has an intel integrated 845G intel chip video and i'm using Feisty
[11:06] <qazibasit> i need the linux cd
[11:06] <qazibasit> or is it something different
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: you can't resize the disk which is mounted.
[11:06] <qazibasit> oh
[11:06] <qazibasit> then u are saying that i have to reinstall all this
[11:07] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: i just want to move my home folder
[11:07] <qazibasit> to a differnet partition
[11:07] <AhmedShaikhM> fyrestrtr: just a screeen saying loading linux kernel, after that it throws some error "Failed Region" and then saying "loading.." after that nothing
[11:07] <fyrestrtr> AhmedShaikhM: sounds like a bad burn.
[11:07] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: you know, my best results with getting non-standard resolutions working came about by just deleting all of the montior resolutions from the xorg.conf
[11:07] <qazibasit> AhmedShaikhM: i think its ur graphic card problem
[11:07] <qazibasit> i think its not compitable with the linux driver
[11:07] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: you might want to back up xorg.conf first.  basically i just found the lines that had stuff like "800x600" and deleted all options
[11:08] <beewee> Hi! I tried shrinking and moving a fat32 partition using gparted and it failed: http://beewee.be.funpic.de/initrd.img.html
[11:08] <beewee> should I try to mount it?
[11:08] <Marfi> hey hey! does anyone know of an iCal equivelant for ubuntu?
[11:08] <beewee>  or what can I do now?
[11:08] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: ok let me see my xorg.conf  , thankx
[11:08] <Marfi> or a way to get iCal onto a ubuntu install?
[11:09] <AhmedShaikhM> qazibut, fyrestrtr: its saying "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 and then end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[11:09] <AhmedShaikhM> whats does it really mean?
[11:09] <amundsen> can anybody help me to solve the ttf-opensymbol upgrade problem ?
[11:09] <_blix_> Im back folks
[11:09] <Marfi> wb _blix_
[11:09] <_blix_> anyone remember me from yesterday?
[11:09] <_blix_> thanks Marfi
[11:09] <arghh2D2> Look!  all I'm trying to do is get java runtime environment plugin on my feisty fawn system, is this possible?  if so, please, someone please direct me to the right howto or other sort of documentation.
[11:09] <Marfi> nope. =) lol
[11:09] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: create the partition, mount it as /homenew, copy your files there (make sure you use -p), then change your /etc/fstab, create an entry for /home pointing it to the new partition, then reboot.
[11:09] <qazibasit> AhmedShaikhM:  its ur graphic card compatibility problem
[11:09] <_blix_> well I've got an urgent problem
[11:09] <The_Machine> i'm booted into the ubuntu live CD righ tnow
[11:10] <_blix_> how do I mount my floppy
[11:10] <The_Machine> i really could use some help with doing some partition changes
[11:10] <Marfi> arghh2D2, are you trying to code with java and ubuntu?
[11:10] <The_Machine> if some one has a second
[11:10] <Marfi> does anyone know of a way to get iCal onto a ubuntu install?
[11:10] <The_Machine> i have my regular ext3 parition, and another 200 GB free space on the hdd
[11:10] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: how to mount or point it to a different partition
[11:10] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: if you edit the file in vim you can make the changes i'm talking about with :g /"800x600"/ s/".*//g
[11:10] <_blix_> mount floppy?
[11:10] <arghh2D2> Marfi: no, i'm just trying to get java to run on my web browser
[11:10] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: or maybe simply :g /800x600/ d
[11:10] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: i mean how to edit the fstab
[11:10] <The_Machine> i would like to expand the ext3 partition to use all of the disk space, but without creating another partition.  I don't see how to do this in gparted or in qtparted
[11:10] <_blix_> I need to copy over important sata drivers
[11:11] <The_Machine> a little help would really benefit me :)
[11:11] <Marfi> arghh2D2, if i recall, there is a mozilla plugin in synaptic for firefox
[11:11] <Prowler_1> SoundBlater Live Driver???
[11:11] <steveatlocalhost> hey
[11:11] <Bucketface> Can anyone help me get zsnes to work please?
[11:11] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: the manual page for mount should help;
[11:11] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: ok, but should i erase all the resolutions listed there? 'cause i have alot
[11:11] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: thanks
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: it is just a text file, you need to edit it with superuser privileges.
[11:12] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: ok now i get it thanks
[11:12] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: in my experience, deleting all of them and restarting x will automatically find the best resolution for a non-standard display
[11:12] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: rather ironic, but it's worked for me several times.
[11:13] <steveatlocalhost> if your using an intel try the 915 driver in synaptic
[11:13] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: ok, ok let me try it if it works i'll let you know thankx a lot!
[11:13] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr:  i have 210 Gb on my PC and this is the max i can put on my PC is there any way i can expand my HD
[11:13] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: de nada
[11:13] <The_Machine> any advice on resizing my ext3 partition?
[11:13] <steveatlocalhost> an external hard drive qazibasit?
[11:13] <barbarella> Marfi:What i use is lightning, an add-on for thunderbird. The calendar's are shared with the apache webdav module.
[11:13] <arghh2D2> Great!  now i have a 'broken' package, and i dont know what the heck that is or what to do with it.
[11:13] <steveatlocalhost> the machine- try gparted
[11:13] <qazibasit> steveatlocalhost: but i cant boot my system from it
[11:14] <Marfi> barbarella, ill check it out. thanks!   <3
[11:14] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: if it is the max -- then how can you expand it?
[11:14] <wctraxler> william
[11:14] <yanek18> join #shareosiol
[11:14] <steveatlocalhost> quazibasit: are you able to boot from usb in bios?
[11:14] <wctraxler> new web site too check out tomorow http://i35wdedication2007.bravehost.com/
[11:14] <jrib> arghh2D2: what was the last thing you did?  what error are you getting?
[11:14] <qazibasit> steveatlocalhost: never check it
[11:14] <_blix_> I need to access my floppy
[11:14] <qazibasit> is there any such option

[11:15] <jrib> !floppy > _blix_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:15] <steveatlocalhost> qazibasit: you can boot from an external usb hard drive if you have the ability to boot from it
[11:15] <MrCollins> !games for ubuntu
[11:15] <mzanfardino> I've got kinda of an odd question: I have need of a USB floppy, but only have available a USB thumb drive.  Is there a way to make a thumb drive look like a USB Floppy drive?
[11:15] <Marfi> barbarella, what is it under synaptic?
[11:15] <wctraxler> sorry wrong caht
[11:15] <_blix_> THANX..I will read.
[11:15] <zoidberg_> hey guys
[11:15] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: and steveatlocalhost is there any system available which i can connect to my system and i can put many HD in it
[11:15] <MrCollins> mzanfardino: ubuntu can mount that usb floppy I believe...
[11:15] <qazibasit> like we see in movies
[11:15] <WindowsHater> hi zoidberg
[11:15] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: google 'NAS'
[11:16] <neverblue> how do you 'say' ubuntu
[11:16] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr:  whats NAS
[11:16] <jrib> !pronounce > neverblue (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:16] <arghh2D2> jrib: tried to enable multiverse manually by uncommenting any line that said 'multiverse' then tried to install java runtime, didnt work.  then reopened synaptic and it says, "you have a broken package, use the filter to locate it"
[11:16] <zoidberg_> i was wondering if someone could refer me to a good source to learn start learning python scripting and programming under ubuntu?
[11:16] <steveatlocalhost> quazibasit: im sure there is something available. you can buy external hard drive cases that you can link together, that enable you to have alot of storage on one usb port
[11:16] <fyrestrtr> qazibasit: network attached storage.
[11:16] <AhmedShaikhM> !pronounce
[11:16] <ubotu> pronounce is point your movie player at /usr/share/example-content/Experience ubuntu.ogg
[11:16] <jrib> arghh2D2: "the tried to install java runtime" how?
[11:16] <mzanfardino> MrCollins: well, what I think has to happen is I think the USB Thumb Drive needs to either be formatted in such a way that it is perceived by the system that it's a floppy device OR the device itself has to report to the booting OS that it's a floppy... if it's the later case, I think I'm screwed

[11:17] <jrib> neverblue: argh to whoever changed that, it's ooboontoo
[11:17] <qazibasit> wow
[11:17] <qazibasit> never heard abt it
[11:17] <steveatlocalhost> haha
[11:17] <neverblue> ooboontoo
[11:17] <arghh2D2> jrib: first through synaptic, no deals, so then through console with: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts
[11:17] <Roham> My wlan dosn't work the syslog says that the wlan0 card can not be set in infrastructure mode
[11:17] <Marfi> arghh2D2, if you download automatix2, there is a plugin for it
[11:17] <bruenig> boon? I thought bun?
[11:18] <Marfi> its sun JRE 1.6, dont know what it is in synaptic though
[11:18] <neverblue> i though bun too
[11:18] <bruenig> !automatix | Marfi
[11:18] <ubotu> Marfi: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[11:18] <bruenig> neverblue, clever
[11:18] <arghh2D2> Marfi, where is automatix?
[11:18] <Symons|offic1> whats the name of the default bittorrent client that comes with ubuntu?
[11:18] <bruenig> arghh2D2, don't do that
[11:18] <jrib> arghh2D2: what is the output of 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin'?
[11:18] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr:  where is fstab located
[11:18] <Marfi> arghh2D2, google it, and it will come up
[11:18] <neverblue> how can you run the .ogg from command line
[11:18] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: sorry i missed that part of the chat
[11:18] <bruenig> Marfi, don't recommend automatix please
[11:19] <steveatlocalhost> ubotu: its actually a script that runs installers for codecs. the reason it is bad is because it changes system parts that are needed for upgrades from one version to the next
[11:19] <barbarella> qazibasit:/etc
[11:19] <Marfi> bruenig, kk
[11:19] <bruenig> !sorry | steveatlocalhost
[11:19] <ubotu> steveatlocalhost: It's ok, I can't stay mad at you.
[11:19] <fyrestrtr> neverblue: mplayer foo.ogg
[11:19] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr: ok
[11:20] <arghh2D2> just a sec jrib
[11:20] <anzan> !botsnack
[11:20] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[11:20] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, the reasons are in the link that ubout gave by the way and they go far beyond your upgrade claim
[11:20] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: thats just what i have read, forgive me if i am wrong
[11:21] <qazibasit> fyrestrtr:  there is info abt my drives in fstab how to edit it i mean what to write in there
[11:21] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, you are right, but it is more vicious than that
[11:21] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: enlighten me?
[11:21] <MTecknology> anybody in here know anything about relay directory manager?
[11:21] <bruenig> !automatix > steveatlocalhost

[11:22] <arghh2D2> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[11:22] <arghh2D2>   sun-java6-plugin: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-00-2ubuntu2) but it is not going to be installed
[11:22] <arghh2D2> E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

[11:22] <bruenig> _blix_, I have never dealt with a floppy, but if it has a mount point like usb, just copy the stuff from one mount point to the other

[11:24] <zoidberg_> hey guys...i was wondering if anyone could direct me to a good source to pythong programming and scripting under ubuntu?
[11:24] <_blix_> right
[11:24] <ckin2001> zoid : #python
[11:24] <_blix_> why does it saying 'omiting... when I attempt a copy?
[11:24] <soothsayer> What program can I use to proxy a connection for an application that doesn't support proxies?
[11:24] <bruenig> zoidberg_, python scripting is the same period
[11:24] <_blix_> say*
[11:24] <bruenig> zoidberg_, so any thing you can find
[11:24] <zoidberg_> bruenig, but i dont know python scripting
[11:25] <jrib> _blix_: full error messages are usually more helpful than abbreviated ones
[11:25] <ckin2001> blix : it is probably skipping directories
[11:25] <ckin2001> try recursive copy
[11:25] <_blix_> which is?
[11:25] <bruenig> zoidberg_, I am just saying there is no need to look for "ubuntu specific" things because its all the same
[11:25] <ckin2001> cp -R if i remember
[11:25] <_blix_> basically in my usbdisk I have a folder called SATA
[11:25] <bruenig> _blix_, yeah you probably aren't cp -r
[11:25] <bruenig> or -R
[11:25] <_blix_> ah ok
[11:26] <_blix_> ah yeah for folders
[11:26] <steveatlocalhost> has anyone tried live linux scripts on ubuntu?
[11:26] <_blix_> sec
[11:26] <bruenig> directories*
[11:26] <pike_> soothsayer: a tunnel? ssh?
[11:26] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, live linux scripts?
[11:26] <arghh2D2> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35462/
[11:26] <_blix_> bruenig and ckin2001 - thank you!
[11:26] <steveatlocalhost> http://www.linux-live.org/
[11:26] <_blix_> it worked
[11:26] <soothsayer> pike_: It's an socks SSH tunnel. Anyway, never mind, 'tsocks' does the trick

[11:27] <albert> how do i install headers for my kernel???
[11:27] <barbarella> Sivik: read the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:27] <Sivik> barbarella, i found a howto online
[11:27] <fyrestrtr> !kernel > albert
[11:27] <barbarella> Sivik: ok
[11:27] <jrib> albert: install the linux-headers-$(uname -r) package
[11:27] <PriceChild> jrib, with -generic on the end ;)
[11:27] <_blix_> how do i force a umount?
[11:28] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, that's a lot of work for something that seems rather useless
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: http://www.linux-live.org/
[11:28] <PriceChild> jrib, wait... no silly me :)
[11:28] <albert> how do i install that package, sorry im a complete noob
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: i know, i would just like to try it
[11:28] <jrib> albert: why do you want kernel headers?
[11:28] <arghh2D2> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35463/
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: it is remarkably easy, you just execute a script, i just keep recieving errors
[11:28] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, live cds work mainly due to massive hardware detection stuff, this process will not have that, so differences in computers would make the thing useless
[11:28] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: idid what just tell me and it didnt work :(
[11:28] <albert> it says i need them to install ndiswrapper, and since its not installing properly i suppose i dont have them or neeed to install them
[11:29] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: hmm, i see your point,
[11:29] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: d'oh
[11:29] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: thanks
[11:29] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: put your xorg.conf file into a pastebin
[11:29] <jrib> arghh2D2: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre    btw do you have any third part repos enabled or have you installed any .deb files manually?
[11:29] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, now if you had a huge bank of similar computers and you wanted some custom recovery thing, then it might be useful
[11:29] <soothsayer> pike_: Actually I'm not sure anymore if 'tsocks' is what I need...
[11:29] <albert> how do i get them
[11:29] <jrib> !who | albert
[11:29] <ubotu> albert: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)

[11:30] <jrib> !ndiswrapper > albert (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:30] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: i was hoping to use it to create a recovery CD that would run on my laptop, as well as my dads laptop (they are virtually the same)
[11:30] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: the live distro "slax" was made using those scripts
[11:31] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: on wich pastebin?
[11:31] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, slax has been around for a while but I have never seen this project before, I guess the guy who makes slax made this to speed along the process or some such?
[11:31] <dho_ragus> !pastebin
[11:31] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:32] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: yes, he first created the script, then he used it to create slax from a slackware install with KDE as the DE
[11:32] <bruenig> steveatlocalhost, I have used slax before but it was probably 2 years ago
[11:33] <steveatlocalhost> bruenig: i have used it recently, and it seems to work well from what i've used it on
[11:33] <arghh2D2> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35464/   I tried manually enabling multiverse by uncommenting some lines in /etc/apt/sources.list because i couldnt do it in synaptic.  then i tried installing in synaptic and it failed so i tried through apt and also failed, of course.
[11:34] <jrib> arghh2D2: join me in #ubuntu-classroom

[11:35] <steveatlocalhost> oops
[11:35] <WheelDweller> Yeah?  I guess I'll have to try there; thanks!
[11:36] <WheelDweller> If I coulf just get better diagnostics, I think I could figure it out...
[11:36] <loquitus_of_borg> what do you recommend for me to use as a nice and reasonably easy to use gui-based torrent client for Ubuntu? I have a bunch to pick from in Synaptic package manager
[11:36] <barbarella> WheelDweller:just ask the question.
[11:36] <nico__> hello
[11:36] <dixon> has anyone tried shaping through htb? I've done one script, but need to tune up some details :)
[11:37] <WheelDweller> Well, my service is working fine for local resolution...but after hours of research (really!) I can't make it recurse. Ever.
[11:37] <fyrestrtr> loquitus_of_borg: deluge

[11:40] <steveatlocalhost> PriceChild, arent you like admin on the forums?
[11:40] <PriceChild> steveatlocalhost, pm
[11:40] <Torahteen> Thanks guys
[11:40] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: ok, so there's still a problem.  you do have a defined resolution, it's just a resolution of " "
[11:40] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: yes thats the one
[11:40] <nico__> anyway, im not asking suport for gutsy, just want to know some experiences with it, i'm curently running feisty
[11:40] <vrkhans> sudo rm -f rtl-wifi/
[11:40] <vrkhans> rm: cannot remove `rtl-wifi/': Is a directory

[11:40] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: well i try it without the quotes
[11:40] <barbarella> WheelDweller:what are your allow-recursion settings
[11:40] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: http://pastebin.com/m2727c06
[11:41] <alicia> When I connect to teh internet with my hardmodem, it dials, says connected, and dies about 10 seconds later
[11:41] <dho_ragus> goofykinky: if that doesn't work, just delete the whole "modes" line from each entry
[11:41] <WheelDweller> barbarella: allow-recursion { 192.168.1.0/24; localhost;};
[11:41] <goofykinky> dho_ragus: ok, let my try it
[11:42] <scorpking> vrkhans: sudo rm -r rtl-wifi/
[11:42] <WheelDweller> barbarella: But this setting, versus the defailt, versus :allow-recursion on doesn't change anything.  I really need more diagnostics- can't tell what it's doing.

[11:43] <WheelDweller> killall -9 processname   or  kill -9 process-number
[11:43] <jrib> super-6-1: system -> administration -> system monitor  or type 'xkill' and click on the gui app
[11:43] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1 is it a window or a terminal app?
[11:43] <super-6-1> ok
[11:43] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1 xkill in terminal
[11:43] <super-6-1> ok
[11:44] <fyrestrtr> or alt+f2 and type xkill

[11:45] <super-6-1> ii i got a wireless problem with a netgear wg111v2 it is connected but it does nothing
[11:45] <steveatlocalhost> loquitus_of_borg, is it designed for debian or ubuntu?
[11:45] <Bucketface> Anyone help me to get zsnes actually working?
[11:45] <loquitus_of_borg> steveatlocalhost: no idea
[11:46] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1 have you tried ndiswrapper
[11:46] <soothsayer> emeriste: I'm not sure, but try latex-xft-fonts

[11:46] <WindowsHater> oficial website
[11:46] <steveatlocalhost> loquitus_of_borg, its probably a debian package not designed for ubuntu. you may have to compile

[11:47] <abyss> exists a Code::Blocks package in Fiesty?

[11:47] <nickrud> bulio_, the easiest if disabling the onboard in bios
[11:47] <nickrud> *s
[11:47] <Bo1> how can i find the full information about 2 of my graphic card?
[11:48] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1 look on the personal chat i will give you instructions
[11:48] <WheelDweller> Later, guys.
[11:48] <super-6-1> jrib huh
[11:48] <super-6-1> ok
[11:48] <emeriste> soothsayer - Okay thank you I will try that.
[11:48] <super-6-1> stevealocalhost ok
[11:48] <jrib> super-6-1: the cd you used to install ubuntu has a repository on it that you can install packages from, it should have ndiswrapper iirc
[11:48] <nickrud> Bo1, sudo hwinfo --display
[11:49] <jrib> super-6-1: and the bot sent you instructions on setting up wireless
[11:49] <eno__> Hello, all.  Would someone please let me know how to access the dictionary from the command line?  I am trying to search for a certain word using grep.
[11:49] <abyss> !Code::Blocks
[11:49] <super-6-1> umm i dont know where to beggin
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about code::blocks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:49] <Bo1> nickrud:trying now
[11:49] <jrib> eno__: I don't see the connection between using the dictionary on the command line and grepping for a certain word, can you expand on what you want to do?
[11:50] <emeriste> soothsayer - That could certainly be it. I am surprised something like that is not pre-installed.  Browsers need these fonts or they won't render math type setting.
[11:50] <eno__> I want to search for a word in the dictionary
[11:50] <Bo1> nickrud:is saying wrong command
[11:50] <suupaabaka> Can anyone tell me how to run a .run file?
[11:50] <jrib> super-6-1: at the beginning of course :)
[11:50] <Bucketface> Anyone help me to get zsnes actually working?
[11:50] <jrib> suupaabaka: what are you trying to do with the .run file?
[11:50] <steveatlocalhost> suupaabaka: sudo sh "/run/file/location"
[11:50] <soothsayer> emeriste: I'm not sure if it is sufficient. The test page http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL/pmathml2.xml doesn't seem to work 100%
[11:50] <steveatlocalhost> should work
[11:51] <sparrw> I feel sad.  For the first time I am forced to abandon Linux in favor of Windows or OS X for a work project.  I think I will use OS X.
[11:51] <nickrud> Bo1, sudo hwinfo --display <-- cut and paste from a successful run
[11:51] <suupaabaka> Say thanks. Apparently it's an executable
[11:51] <nickrud> Bo1, you may need to sudo aptitude install hwinfo
[11:51] <steveatlocalhost> suupaabaka: alot of sites use run files because they are universal, unlike .deb or .rpm
[11:51] <Phydoux> sparrw, I sometimes have to Boot Windows for specific projects.
[11:52] <emeriste> Yep not quite 100 percent so far.
[11:52] <Phydoux> I hate it but sometimes it has to be done
[11:52] <Bo1> nickrud:i got this message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35470/plain/
[11:52] <sparrw> Phydoux: windows, on my own computer?  never.
[11:52] <Phydoux> :)
[11:52] <super-6-1> ok so how do i install ndiswrapper from the disk?
[11:52] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1
[11:52] <super-6-1> yea
[11:52] <nickrud> Bo1, see above about installing hwinfo
[11:52] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1, place in your disk, then go to synaptic, then click reload
[11:53] <super-6-1> ok
[11:53] <Torahteen> How do I tell apt-get to use the internet repositories and not the CD?
[11:53] <steveatlocalhost> super-6-1: then search for ndiswrapper
[11:53] <jrib> Torahteen: system -> administration -> software sources   or edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and comment the cd-rom line yourself and then run 'sudo apt-get update'
[11:53] <Bo1> nickrud:i got this message now. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35471/plain/
[11:53] <suupaabaka> So what does "sh" mean?
[11:53] <alicia> I think I'll ask one more time about help with a dialup connection, can anyone be of help?
[11:53] <sparrw> Phydoux: i wouldnt mind booting windows on another machine occasionally.  but this has to be a full time solution.  so its a mac  :)  if only because we have a spare mac mini sitting around
[11:53] <steveatlocalhost> suupaabaka: sh is shell script. it means its a script
[11:53] <eno__> I think that you can look for words in the main system dictionary using grep.  does anyone know where the dictionary file is?
[11:54] <scorpking> how do i chack the connection speed of ppp0?
[11:54] <soothsayer> eno__: /usr/share/dict
[11:54] <eno__> thanks

[11:54] <pike_> alicia: best advice i can give is to buy a real modem. they are pretty inexpensive. winmodems can work though
[11:54] <barbarella> WheelDweller:how do your logging options look like?
[11:54] <steveatlocalhost> !tab

[11:55] <steveatlocalhost> suupaabaka: no problem :D always here to help
[11:55] <sparrw> Phydoux: only reason i cant use linux is the hardware acquisition guy didnt ask me which brands to buy this time.  he wont forget that again.

[11:56] <eno__> thedash: beep and xmms are very similar to winamp
[11:56] <thedash> I know
[11:56] <steveatlocalhost> thedash: why not use winamp? just google wine doors and you can already. if not try: xmms, beep, audacious, banshee, rythmbox, amarok .......
[11:56] <super-6-1> VCL

[11:57] <Hammy031> i need help
[11:57] <nickrud> Bo1, then try install hwinfo again
[11:57] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 whats up
[11:57] <Cuzz> Hi, i installed 8600GT drivers manually by following the yaroman tutorial and installed Beryl. Everything worked GREAT! But when i restart i get the "blue" screen saying "Failed to start X server". Is there a simple command to fix this? Thanx
[11:57] <gordonjcp> thedash: I mean if you can describe pretty clearly what you do and don't like, maybe someone can improve it
[11:57] <Hammy031> i just got the Ubuntu DVD
[11:57] <thedash> gordonjcp :: the main problem with beep is that it's unsupported and not being updated
[11:57] <gordonjcp> thedash: maybe you can improve it ;-)
[11:57] <pike_> alicia: can you try and tell me at what point do you hit a problem doing this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/SetUpDialer
[11:57] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031, problem being? you wanna install?
[11:57] <Hammy031> and when i try to boot it it just freezes
[11:57] <Hammy031> yes
[11:57] <Hammy031> iit freeses
[11:57] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031, have you tried safe gfx. mode?
[11:57] <gordonjcp> thedash: pretty much everyone has moved onto rhythmbox or amarok these days
[11:57] <Hammy031> freezes
[11:57] <nickrud> Cuzz, #ubuntu-effects
[11:58] <Hammy031> yes
[11:58] <Hammy031> i tried everything
[11:58] <Hammy031> they told me to download the ALT cd
[11:58] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031, have you tried the alternate install?
[11:58] <Cuzz> i tried, but thanx
[11:58] <Hammy031> so im doing that right now
[11:58] <steveatlocalhost> that should work
[11:58] <Hammy031> yea lolz im going to do that right now
[11:58] <thedash> gordonjcp :: amarok is probably my favourite of the bunch, but it's not very personable
[11:58] <nickrud> Cuzz, ok ;)
[11:58] <Nyu`> i had the same probs
[11:58] <Hammy031> ok if it works ill come back
[11:58] <Nyu`> i tryed with alt cd
[11:58] <gordonjcp> thedash: uhm, what makes you think it's no longer updated, anyway?
[11:58] <Nyu`> didnt works :(
[11:58] <Bucketface> Anyone help me to get zsnes actually working?
[11:58] <nikin> how can i test whenever my newli installed fax modem is working?
[11:58] <macaco> hello
[11:58] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 lol the alternate install is able to configure more effectively
[11:58] <gordonjcp> http://beep-media-player.org/site/BMPx_Homepage <-  Latest: 0.40.1 (11 August 2007)
[11:58] <Hammy031> well how do i use the ALT CD?
[11:58] <thedash> gordonjcp :: that's what I was told a while ago ?
[11:58] <nikin> i have done calls with it
[11:59] <Hammy031> how do i use it?
[11:59] <gordonjcp> thedash: oh right, it's not been updated in two weeks so it's not updated any more? ;-)
[11:59] <Hammy031> the alt cd?
[11:59] <DrakeJustice> anyone here have a file called /etc/ati/ati-fglrx.sh? plz?
[11:59] <Hammy031> just boot with the alt cd?
[11:59] <Bo1> nickrub:i did this part "system->prefs->synaptic ; settings->repositories; check all"
[11:59] <Torahteen> Where can I find a sources list?
[11:59] <DrakeJustice> i updated the kernel module and it disappears...
[11:59] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 like the normal CD, except it is text not a desktop
[11:59] <gordonjcp> thedash: some of my projects have gone over a year without a tarball release... ;-)
[11:59] <jrib> !easysource > Torahteen (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:59] <macaco> i install ubuntu 7.10 and update compi fuction but i dont know how replace  :(
[11:59] <jrib> macaco: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[11:59] <PriceChild> !gutsy | macaco
[11:59] <ubotu> macaco: 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
[11:59] <Aval0n_> anyone know if there is a way to virtually shrink the desktop or move your menu bars down? I have a tv that overscans with no way to turn it off. I've managed to adjust mythtv where I want it but my menu bars are off the screen
[12:00] <emeriste> MathML is pointless if browsers don't come able to render it and installing the fonts is not something that average people can do easily.
[12:00] <Hammy031> ok so i just insert the cd into my cd-dvd rom and boot?
[12:00] <Bo1> nickrub:now what?
[12:00] <nickrud> Bo1, ok, then the reload button is on the main window menu bar. That will add some more repositories to your system, and you'll be able to install hwinfo
[12:00] <emeriste> What would be the point in making a page with MathML if no one can see it?
[12:00] <Hammy031> i thought i had to boot the ubuntu cd and then click boot with alt cd or something
[12:00] <macaco> yep
[12:00] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 yeah, make sure you select the first option, or you will have a manufacturer type pc, which you need to be a manufacturer to log into
[12:00] <nickrud> Bo1, and that's a d at the end, not a b (makes it harder for me to see your messages)
[12:01] <pike_> Aval0n_: just mythtv? thats what you want to adjust geometry of?
[12:01] <DrakeJustice> anyone know a channel where i can get ANY kind of AMD/ATI support?
[12:01] <Aval0n_> pike_: no i've done that and it's where I want it
[12:01] <Cuzz> nickrud: can i ask again?
[12:01] <steveatlocalhost> brb
[12:01] <Aval0n_> but I'de like to move ubuntu desktop like that
[12:01] <Aval0n_> damn overscan
[12:01] <nickrud> Cuzz, I'm not an op ;)
[12:01] <Hammy031> ok so insert the alt cd and boot and select the first option right?
[12:01] <pike_> Aval0n_: oh. im of absolutely no help then
[12:01] <Cuzz> lol -_-
[12:01] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 yeah
[12:01] <Aval0n_> ok thanks anyway
[12:01] <ale_> hhola
[12:01] <Hammy031> thank you for your help

[12:03] <vicentecarro> Hi
[12:03] <nickrud> Bo1, things moving along ok?
[12:03] <macaco> ok
[12:04] <azzmodan> What could I have done to cause my 2nd machine to be able to do everything except get webpages over port 80 (even 443 works fine)?
