[12:07] <yokomo> does compiz fusion automatically work when I boot or do I have to enable it?  I have been trying to configure it but I see no change in the way my desktop looks

[12:15] <masss> i installed ubuntu this morning, internet worked fine and i auto-updated the software with 120 new items, now with the update going on i cant connect to internet,  can someone explain me this plzzz
[12:15] <preaction> Ice_, of course not. different environment. different versions of libraries, different version of kernel. you'd have to recompile everything
[12:16] <uri> please, where can I find CCSM for Ubuntu?
[12:16] <rendo> Anyone know what I need to exactly do, or have a FAQ on how to set up ssh access to be limited to specific IP address?
[12:16] <nickrud> uri, /j #ubuntu-effects for compiz-fusion
[12:17] <uri> they won't answer me there -_-
[12:17] <nickrud> uri, heh. I don't know :)
[12:17] <preaction> rendo, probably better to do ssh with shared keys. let me find a tut for you
[12:17] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  when I try to activate the restricted nvidia drivers, they actually -don't-.  The check box stays unmarked and I can't use 'em.  I imagine that the reason for this is that my gfx card is integrated, so the drivers would be different I'd imagine.
[12:17] <PriceChild> rendo, you need to edit /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow appropriately I'd guess...
[12:17] <|Jason8|> Any ideas as to how I could fix this?
[12:18] <preaction> rendo, http://www.cvrti.utah.edu/~dustman/no-more-pw-ssh/ <- try this?
[12:18] <rendo> PriceChild, let's say I do that, and I only allow X IP where X isn't my IP, would it still allow me to use ssh with my user account or should it not deny me?
[12:18] <skinnypuppy1334> Trying to install a ssh server on 6.06, would lsh-server be the right package?
[12:18] <PriceChild> rendo, it shouldn't accept the connection unless its from the allowed ip
[12:19] <Lamego> skinnypuppy1334, openssh-server
[12:19] <preaction> skinnypuppy1334, no, use openssh-server
[12:19] <NET||abuse> hmm, what's the best audio cd burner app for gnome/well a K* app would be ok also..
[12:19] <skinnypuppy1334> openssh then, thank you guys
[12:19] <NET||abuse> i've just used serpentine for a few discs there,, but,, any better ones?
[12:19] <ivan_> where can i get help on compiz fusion??
[12:19] <NET||abuse> ivan_, #compiz-fusion
[12:21] <VSpike> Does anyone know if there's an email program for ubuntu which supports sending HTML email in a specific font?
[12:21] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  when I try to activate the restricted nvidia drivers, they actually -don't-.  The check box stays unmarked and I can't use 'em.  I imagine that the reason for this is that my gfx card is integrated, so the drivers would be different I'd imagine.  Any ideas on how to fix this?
[12:22] <jarl> hello. odd question perhaps, but does anyone here have a 5,25''-diskdrive?
[12:22] <osmosis> Hardy Hard-on ?
[12:23] <ScorpKing> ya, but not connected to a machine
[12:23] <Administrator> wow
[12:23] <jarl> anyone connected?
[12:23] <Administrator> this is taking long
[12:24] <Administrator> im trying to install the beryl effects lolz
[12:24] <skinnypuppy1334> Why is it when I ping on lan blueubuntubox it returns an ip off my lan, but on the wan cable range?
[12:24] <addajkl> hello everybody, good day to you
[12:24] <ScorpKing> hi
[12:25] <CoasterMaster> hello
[12:25] <CoasterMaster> !hi | addajkl
[12:25] <ubotu> addajkl: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:25] <addajkl> am i pretty much out of luck running Ubuntu on my powerbook G4 ;( ?
[12:25] <addajkl> thanks!
[12:25] <AndrewB> I use Ubuntu on my iBook g4
[12:25] <skinnypuppy1334> I can ping ip of blueubuntubox , but its hostname isn't resolving to the local ip lan range...
[12:25] <rockets> addajkl, No, just install the PPC version
[12:25] <addajkl> AndrewB: where can i find a download of it? I heard its not supported anymore? i have an aging 667mhz powerbook g4, and i figure linux will run a bit better on it
[12:26] <ScorpKing> jarl: still there?
[12:26] <|Jason8|> skinnypuppy1334: sounds like witchcraft.
[12:26] <AndrewB> addajkl: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/feisty/release/
[12:26] <|Jason8|> Maybe your router has that computer set outside the network?  I know my router can do that.
[12:27] <ptn107> whats a good bittorrent client for ubuntu besides the included one??
[12:27] <addajkl> AndrewB: thanks so much i appreciate it, so ican partition and dual boot if i choose to?
[12:27] <CoasterMaster> !torrent | ptn107
[12:27] <AndrewB> addajkl: sure can
[12:27] <pike_> ptn107: deluge or ktorrent for gui
[12:27] <ubotu> ptn107: Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[12:27] <skinnypuppy1334> Jason8 didn't know I could set anything on the router. D-link cable modem dlink wireless router
[12:27] <Riax> Hello. I'd like to know exactly what I need to do in order to boot Ubuntu 7.04 x86 from the live disc with support for my graphics card.
[12:28] <ptn107> whats the most popular client of those listed??
[12:28] <addajkl> AndrewB: last question, i'm sorry if i am interuppting !! i have a linksys pcmcia wireless G card , will i be able to use internet with that?
[12:28] <skinnypuppy1334> Can you telnet into Dlink router?
[12:28] <pike_> ptn107: overhead leaving az up for a few days drives me crazy id stay away from java. probably recommend ktorrent i guess
[12:28] <|Jason8|> addajkl: dual booting is supported pretty nicely.  I dualboot windows/ubuntu on this computer, and that works great.  Ubuntu > all
[12:28] <bulmer> addajkl: yes you can
[12:29] <pike_> ptn107: personally i use utorrent and wine. i think alot of people do
[12:29] <addajkl> bulmer: thanks, do i need to download anything for that?
[12:29] <stephan> hey guys
[12:29] <AndrewB> I dunno bout that one addajkl, bulmer thinks so :D
[12:29] <NET||abuse> hehe, 5.25,, weird
[12:29] <stephan> yeah u need to download wine.. and utorrent but other than that nope
[12:29] <NET||abuse> sorry, was reading scroll back ther.e.
[12:29] <NET||abuse> didn't realize
[12:29] <|Jason8|> addajkl: also, I ran ubuntu pretty decent on a 450 MHz AMD K6-2.  it was about four times faster than XP and about twice as fast as Win98
[12:29] <CoasterMaster> I use rtorrent/libtorrent
[12:29] <addajkl> jason8: wow, im really excited then!
[12:30] <stephan> i use azureus
[12:30] <pike_> rtorrent is awesome for cli but i dont know id recommend to a new linux user
[12:30] <NET||abuse> pike_, dunno, i find the default gnome torrent kinda annoying to use
[12:30] <grafporno> ..there are cli-torrent applications?
[12:30] <addajkl> awesome, as long as i can use the pcmcia linksys wireless g with my powerbook with ubuntu i think i will be very excited!
[12:30] <CoasterMaster> yeah, a couple of them
[12:30] <AndrewB> grafporno: sure is
[12:30] <corrupt> time to eat
[12:30] <grafporno> second that what net|abuse is
[12:30] <grafporno> *said
[12:30] <grafporno> sorry
[12:31] <grafporno> rtorrent was the name, right?
[12:31] <CoasterMaster> yes, rtorrent
[12:31] <bulmer> addajkl: which chip does it use? google for the driver it uses
[12:31] <CoasterMaster> and libtorrent goes with it
[12:31] <|Jason8|> addajkl: How much RAM do you have?  Always partition a decent size swap area.  768 megs should be more than plenty.
[12:31] <kevinOman> ok i deleted that partition using gparted and like i thought it messes up grub, anyone know how I can fix grub now
[12:31] <CoasterMaster> grafporno: the version in the ubuntu repositories is outdated though
[12:31] <grafporno> where can i get the new one then?
[12:31] <Riax> I'd like to know exactly what I need to do in order to boot Ubuntu 7.04 x86 from the live disc with support for my graphics card.
[12:32] <AndrewB> kevinOman: grub-install ?
[12:32] <kevinOman> can i do it from the live cd?
[12:32] <bulmer> Riax: if it supports Vesa..your okay
[12:32] <grafporno> kevinOman: grub commandline, set root and setup then
[12:32] <CoasterMaster> grafporno: you can get it from the libtorrent website (http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/), the latest versions are 0.7.6 for rtorrent, 0.11.6 for libtorrent
[12:32] <Riax> I know, but I want to boot without using safe graphics mode.
[12:32] <grafporno> there's a topic on the ubuntuforums
[12:32] <CoasterMaster> grafporno: you have to compile them from source, though
[12:33] <kevinOman> grafporno how do i get to the grub commandline?
[12:33] <grafporno> CoasterMaster: you got a link?
[12:33] <CoasterMaster> grafporno: http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/
[12:33] <grafporno> kevinOman: sudo grub
[12:33] <grafporno> CoasterMaster: thanks
[12:33] <Atlantiz> is it hard to install windows/ubuntu with grub?
[12:33] <CoasterMaster> grafporno: no problem
[12:33] <stephan> nope
[12:33] <kevinOman> grafporno, i can do this from the live cd?
[12:33] <igor47> hi, i'm having a problem where entries in /etc/hosts are ignored.  i checked nsswitch and host.conf and both have file over dns precendece, so what is going on?
[12:34] <Atlantiz> what is your entry in grub for windows stephan?
[12:34] <grafporno> kevinOman: sure, did it about 2 hours ago :D
[12:34] <pike_> Atlantiz: no just install linux last. usually everything is setup for ya. all you have to do is choose between em at boot
[12:34] <Grungebunny> I have a question for when ubuntu 7.10 comes out.. will I have reinstall it? (redo everything ive changed or customized) or can you just upgrade to it without it messing with everything youve done or installed.
[12:34] <Atlantiz> awsome pike
[12:34] <CoasterMaster> Grungebunny: you will be able to upgrade
[12:34] <addajkl> bulmer: i have a linksys WPC54GS ver 2
[12:34] <Grungebunny> yay
[12:34] <grafporno> kevinOman: basically, you want to reinstall grub, right?
[12:34] <Riax> bulmer: I know there's a "driver disc" option in the live boot menu, but I don't know what file(s) I need to put on this disc in order for it to work.
[12:34] <Born_In_Xixax> hi, i would like to keep an eye on my kids' ubuntu pc usage - is there a way to get a screenshot of a remote pc's X session?  Prefer not to do a full VNC session...
[12:35] <kevinOman> grafporno: ok im at the command line, what commands do i use?
[12:35] <bulmer> igor47: how did you verify this? did you try to put a different ip address in /etc/hosts from the real one and did it make a difference?
[12:35] <kevinOman> grafporno: yes
[12:35] <grafporno> okay
[12:35] <ScorpKing> igor47: it should work if you have dnsmaq installed. thats what i use.
[12:35] <igor47> bulmer: my hostname is simply not found
[12:35] <grafporno> kevinOman: do you have the old install of grub? if so, use "find /boot/grub/stage1"
[12:36] <bulmer> addajkl: find out the chip inside it..and look in /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/  for the drivers
[12:36] <|Jason8|> are the ubuntu forums really slow for anyone or is it just me?
[12:36] <grafporno> cause youll need the path, where grub's installed
[12:36] <pike_> Born_In_Xixax: you could setup a script using the info at http://www.linux.com/articles/60722 but thats not exactly a packaged solution i dunno how exp you are
[12:36] <kevinOman> grafporno: i installed ubuntu server after my orignal ubuntu, i deleted the server edition so my regular grub is broken
[12:36] <kevinOman> grafporno: that command says hd0,2
[12:36] <igor47> bulmer: it is set as an alias: the line is 127.0.0.1 localhost mymachine but 'nslookup mymachine' gives nxdomain
[12:36] <grafporno> that's good
[12:36] <Born_In_Xixax> pike_: ill take a look - i can handle a bit of complexity :) thanks
[12:37] <|neon|> how can i determine what speed the network card is connected at i.e. 100 or 1000 under kubuntu 7.04 thx
[12:37] <grafporno> next command to use is: root hd(0,2)
[12:37] <bulmer> igor47: nslookup always uses dns i dont think it ever uses /etc/hosts
[12:37] <rockets> |neon|, sudo mii-tool
[12:37] <grafporno> got that, kevinOman
[12:37] <grafporno> ?
[12:37] <igor47> bulmer: nslookup uses the resolver libraries.  it should resolve according to system resolver preferences
[12:37] <kevinOman> grafporno: yup it says hd0,2
[12:37] <|Jason8|> aw man, I think it's just my dialups.
[12:37] <grafporno> good
[12:38] <kevinOman> what do i do now
[12:38] <bulmer> Riax: if you know the driver your video card uses, i guess you can have it in  cdrom and load it..but just for test..just use the vesa  option
[12:38] <grafporno> kevinOman : gimme a sec
[12:38] <SunWuKung> ACTION gives grafporno
[12:38] <kevinOman> ok
[12:38] <bulmer> igor47: am not so sure about that..let me check on mine..
[12:38] <|neon|> rockets thx, it says is at 100basetx how can i change it to 1000 since my card is 1000 capable
[12:39] <rockets> |neon|,  I don't think mii-tool is capable of higher then 100, but also its not enough to just have a 1000 card you need a compatible switch
[12:39] <rockets> |neon|, i think ethtool or something like that can do it
[12:39] <rockets> yeah ethtool
[12:39] <Riax> bulmer: I've been frequently booting off the live disc for over a month now. I'm planning on installing Ubuntu alongside XP SP2, but not until I receive the 64-bit disc by mail.
[12:40] <grafporno> kevinOman: yeah. next thing is: setup (hd0). this will write grub into the mbr so you can use grub to boot
[12:40] <|neon|> i have the switch my entire lan is on 1000 i am running clarkconnect to serve files to everyone and i get 38mb average tranfer rates eexcept on this machine
[12:40] <Riax> bulmer: I know Ubuntu works, I'd just like to be able to boot into it with support for my video card.
[12:40] <bulmer> igor47: nope, i put an entry in the /etc/host and used nslookup..it never uses that file
[12:40] <grafporno> kevinOman: after that, reboot, you should have the menu and boot options back then
[12:40] <igor47> bulmer: but it *SHOULD*
[12:41] <igor47> bulmer: thats the problem
[12:41] <bulmer> igor47: im not 100% sure it should..
[12:41] <kevinOman> grafporno: I get: Error 12: Invalid device requested
[12:41] <igor47> bulmer: it shouldn't be up to my dns server to resolve 'localhost' - thats why /etc/hosts exists!
[12:41] <grafporno> kevinOman: grub error?
[12:42] <kevinOman>  yep i did sudo grub
[12:42] <kevinOman> then setup (hd0)
[12:42] <grafporno> kevinOman: k, where'd you get the error, where'd it fail
[12:43] <kevinOman> grafporno: if i type setup (hd0) it outputs: Error 12: Invalid device requested
[12:43] <bigjohnto> i have like 8 proccesses (child forked processes) of sendmail, when i check the pid number to a log of mail it shows that those are related to spam email and that in the logs it shows as rejected... my question is why does the processes still exist?
[12:43] <grafporno> kevinOman: hd0 is your primary harddisk though?
[12:44] <kevinOman> yup i have only one
[12:44] <bulmer> igor47 there are some defaults...but again am not 100% sure it has to use /etc/host for resolving localhost
[12:44] <kevinOman> its an sata drive though
[12:44] <grafporno> kevinOman: dunno.. try hd0,0 ? im guessing here
[12:44] <Bulazeem> how do i disable desktop drawing in ubuntu?
[12:45] <kevinOman> grafporno: nope same thing
[12:45] <Adlai> Bulazeem: like, the background?
[12:45] <Riax> bulmer: Ok, I guess I'll just burn the driver file to a disc and try the driver disc boot menu option. But which file do I burn? Is it NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run? That's the official Linux x86 driver for my video card.
[12:45] <addajkl> what kernel does 7.04 Feisty Fawn use?
[12:45] <Bulazeem> Adlai: exactly
[12:45] <bulmer> bigjohnto: umm could it be its a daemon and when a daemon child gets killed it spawns another set?
[12:46] <Bulazeem> Adlai: i did it before and cant remember how
[12:46] <Adlai> you can either set it to no background, or kill that instance of nautilus
[12:46] <Bulazeem> Adlai: i remember setting something to draw desktop false or something like that
[12:46] <Adlai> oh, you mean in GDM?
[12:46] <Bulazeem> Adlai: i think so.
[12:46] <igor47> bulmer: ok, i am not on the network.  if i don't have a dns server to access, i should still be able to resolve my own name.  i guess i'll open a bug report, but this is definetly definetly wrong
[12:46] <bulmer> Riax: i honestly does not know which driver..you may have to try them both and see which one is the best for yours..another cd to burn is not that expensive
[12:46] <Adlai> that would be no background for the login screen, is that what you want?
[12:46] <demonspork> Riax, which Nvidia Graphics card do you have?
[12:47] <kevinOman> grafporno did you say i need to set root first? or is that what were doing
[12:47] <kitche> igor47, you have to add the localmachine to /etc/hosts you probably don't have it in there well besides the local.localdomain part
[12:47] <Riax> demonspork: GeForce 6200TC
[12:47] <Adlai> it's in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
[12:47] <Bulazeem> Adlai: what my ultimate goal is for the compiz-fusion to display my four desktop images.   i had it set up before so it wouldnt draw a desktop or icons but i cant remember what i did =/
[12:47] <Adlai> add the line "BackgroundType=0"
[12:47] <Adlai> hmm?
[12:47] <Adlai> oh
[12:47] <demonspork> Riax, does the LiveCD boot in normal graphics mode, at all?
[12:47] <Adlai> this is something entirely different
[12:47] <kitche> igor47, before I had to add my computername.domainname to /etc/hosts since the install didn't add it but a reinstall did it's one of those odd little bugs that happen every once in a while
[12:47] <grafporno> kevinOman: first you need to tell grub where it's root directory is
[12:48] <bulmer> igor47: here use this dns  68.94.156.1  i believe its comcast
[12:48] <grafporno> kevinOman: which normally is in /boot/grub
[12:48] <Adlai> well for that, you just kill nautilus
[12:48] <Adlai> and tell the session manager not to start nautilus on login
[12:48] <grafporno> kevinOman: therefore we do root (hd0,2)
[12:49] <kevinOman> that worked
[12:49] <Bulazeem> Adlai: ty :)
[12:49] <Riax> demonspork: No. I have to use Vesa mode or my primary monitor tries (and fails) to display it correctly, and my secondary monitor reports that the refresh rates are out of range.
[12:49] <grafporno> kevinOman: it did? good :D
[12:49] <kevinOman> grafporno the other command worked now too
[12:49] <kevinOman> i will reboot now
[12:49] <demonspork> Riax, so you can boot into the desktop in safe graphics mode?
[12:49] <grafporno> kevinOman: good, see you later than hopefully :D
[12:50] <Riax> demonspork: Yes.
[12:50] <Zofo> Does anyone know of a way to install ubuntu from the live cd in a way that would run better on a slower computer? becuse my friend cant burn cds
[12:50] <v> How do I install KDE / Make it the default in UBUNTU 7.04? Is there a simple package to download?
[12:50] <kevinOman> :) thanks grafporno
[12:50] <grafporno> np
[12:50] <Adlai> Bulazeem: explain to me what it is you're doing, because I want to try it
[12:50] <Vasdreft> How do I install KDE / Make it the default in UBUNTU 7.04? Is there a simple package to download?
[12:50] <CoasterMaster> Vasdreft: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[12:50] <carlosr> hi ...somebody could help me Im working en TLSP proyect.....i have some dobut....
[12:50] <Vasdreft> Danke :D
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Vasdreft: First show a little patience...
[12:50] <Bulazeem> Adlai: with compiz-fusion you can go to the desktop cube section and then you can set it up under the appearance tab so that each face of your "cube" or w/e shape you have will have its own wallpaper
[12:51] <Adlai> oh that
[12:51] <CoasterMaster> Zofo: you  might want to check out xubuntu for slower computers
[12:51] <Adlai> alright, yeah
[12:51] <Vasdreft> Jack_Sparrow -- Apologies, I got a message that I wasn't logged in with the proper password as V, so I changed my name and reposted my comment. I didn't mean to double post.
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[12:51] <silverlord> 
[12:51] <Vasdreft> Jack_Sparrow -- Didn't think it posted the first time.
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Vasdreft: you select which desktop at login and you can set the default
[12:51] <sith-lord> Hello
[12:51] <pere> hi, anybody knows a download manager that utilizes mirrors for diferent source downlads?
[12:51] <mtappenden> Hi guys
[12:52] <mtappenden> If I have a file which has video, and one with audio, and they are meant to be together to make up one movie with audio and video, how can I put them together?
[12:52] <mtappenden> Most apps I've tried just let me put them one after the other...
[12:52] <Vasdreft> Ntappenden, message me in private
[12:52] <Zofo> Is there a way to install from the live cd that would make itrun faster?
[12:53] <gpm> hey guys. when i run winecfg i don't see an oss option, but all the guides (including ubuntuforums) on how to run steam (lame, i know, but i like to play) say to use oss...how can i install that option?
[12:53] <demonspork> Riax, if you have the driver file on your Windows partition, Install the system from Safe Graphics mode, then to be safe copy the nvidia driver installer into the /home/Riax/ folder on the new installation while you are still on the LiveCD.  the path to it will be something like "/media/hda1/home/Riax"
[12:53] <File13> Hi im dual booting and i just isntalled windows now onto installing ubuntu, in order to get more free space do i click the windows partition and size it down to the desired size using gpart?
[12:53] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: Alright
[12:53] <pike_> File13: thats the idea. usually goes well.
[12:54] <Vasdreft> mtappenden -- message me in a private window, i'll explain
[12:54] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: I just did...
[12:54] <codename> Hi, I need some help trying to install a Emerald theme
[12:54] <File13> do i keep it mounted at /media/sda1 or do i change it
[12:54] <pike_> File13: it cannot be mounted
[12:54] <Vasdreft> mtappenden -- perhaps private messages are disabled here.. :| ?
[12:54] <Atlantiz> hey fellas i have a 74 gb hard drive divided in half with 2 partitions when i install windows on the first partition how do i prevent it from partitioning the whole drive?
[12:54] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: Just tried to again you not getting it?
[12:54] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: You ahve AIM or MSN?
[12:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: The live cd is a bit slow as it is live , but the installed Ubuntu is faster
[12:54] <Vasdreft> mtappenden -- No, not getting it. I messaged you, too
[12:54] <File13> well you can mount it with the ntfs plugin later
[12:54] <codename> Hi, I need some help trying to install a Emerald theme
[12:54] <File13> or have it viewable rather
[12:55] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: Didn't get it, weird
[12:55] <Vasdreft> mtappenden -- I have aim / MSN but I prefer to be anonymous.
[12:55] <pike_> File13: i mean gparted in order to resize needs it to be unmounted
[12:55] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: Ok...
[12:55] <Vasdreft> mtappenden -- I have done what you are doing, I use a program that  is free called "Virtual Dub" to do it.
[12:55] <Riax> demonspork: Then install the package? But won't I have to reboot after I install the driver, which would just reload the live session from disc?
[12:55] <Ralith> Hey, how would I find out which package provides jini.h?
[12:55] <sith-lord> ?
[12:55] <mtappenden> Vasdreft: Join #mtappenden
[12:55] <File13> ok so just change it down to desired size then make my ubuntu partitions and thats it?
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Atlantiz: THe windows installer lets you pick which partition to use for the install...  usually the first one...
[12:55] <codename> Hi, I need some help trying to install a Emerald theme
[12:55] <demonspork> Riax, then when you reboot into the Ubuntu system you just installed, if the desktop won't load, it will leave you at a command line (or you can hit "Ctrl+Alt+F2" if you don't get a prompt)  then simply type "sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run"
[12:55] <Atlantiz> ok thanks jack
[12:55] <codename> Hi, I need some help trying to install a Emerald theme
[12:55] <yurimxpxman> do any of you have the game Prey?
[12:55] <user_> I need to delete a directory in terminal, sudo rmdir --ignore DIRNAME doesn't give any error but the dir is still there... ?
[12:55] <Atlantiz> i'm going to give it a shot
[12:56] <Ralith> Riax: this isn't windows; you don't have to reboot for everything
[12:56] <Jack_Sparrow> File13: No need to pre-make your partitions for Ubuntu.. the installer will handle it..
[12:56] <codename> Actually a Emerald Theme Manager
[12:56] <crazy6> gah, my kingdom for a blank CD
[12:56] <Zofo> i need to install ubuntu on a slow laptop and i dont have a way to burn cds and all i have is a live cd is there a way t odo this?
[12:56] <Atlantiz> awsome thanks jack
[12:56] <Atlantiz> later guys
[12:56] <File13> well im manually doing it...im setting it up a special way
[12:56] <CoasterMaster> Zofo: just stick the CD in and install?
[12:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: The live cd has an install icon...
[12:56] <pike_> Zofo: there are a few options detailed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[12:57] <Zofo> yea i click it and its so slow it freezes
[12:57] <codename> Actually a Emerald Theme Manager
[12:57] <File13> the idea is to have windows and ubuntu then a fat32 shareable partition
[12:57] <user_> rmdir won't delete directory? Need to trash /usr/local/gcam
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: What speed is the laptop?
[12:57] <Zofo> pike_: thx
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> File13: That is the same thing I run here
[12:57] <demonspork> Riax, When you install the Ubuntu System, you will continue to use the live disk after it is done, it doesn't switch you to the System you just installed until you reboot and remove the LiveCD
[12:57] <Riax> demonspork: I don't want to actually install Ubuntu until my 64-bit disc arrives in the mail. I just want to know if there's a way I can make the live disc load a driver from another disc before it loads.
[12:58] <Zofo> Jack_Sparrow: not over a gighz
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: Still runs decent on a 1 ghz box
[12:58] <demonspork> Riax, what are the specs on your system?
[12:58] <Zofo> Jack_Sparrow: yea it should work but its slow
[12:58] <Bulazeem> Adlai: i found an easier way to do it if you are interested.  in configuration editor go to apps, nautilus, preferences, and uncheck the show_desktop box
[12:59] <yurimxpxman> do any of you have the game Prey? If so, could you /msg me?
[12:59] <Vasdreft> Yurimxpxman -- messaging is banned on this server, I think
[12:59] <codename> Actually a Emerald Theme Manager
[12:59] <irotas> anyone know how to change how frequently fsck is forced to check a filesystem?
[12:59] <Riax> demonspork: AMD Athlon64 3500+ Orleans 2.2GHz, nVidia GeForce 6200TC 256MB (512 MB effective), 1GB RAM
[12:59] <yurimxpxman> Vasdreft: no it's not. You just have to be identified.
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: The live is a bit slow but it should be decent after it installs on the hd
[12:59] <irotas> by default it checks it every 20 mounts .. i'd rather it be every 50 or so
[12:59] <Vasdreft> I have prey
[01:00] <Vasdreft> I'm not identified, thoguh
[01:00] <File13> Jack_Sparrow: since im manually doing this when i make the ext3 and swap do i mount ext3 at "/" for root
[01:00] <Jack_Sparrow> irotas: It is selectable...
[01:00] <Jack_Sparrow> File13: yes
[01:00] <File13> sweet
[01:00] <irotas> Jack_Sparrow: where is it configured?
[01:00] <cosmodad> irotas: I think it's e2fstune or something...
[01:00] <yurimxpxman> Vasdreft: could you hop into #ubuntu-offtopic for sec?
[01:01] <cosmodad> irotas: no it's called tune2fs
[01:01] <File13> what do i mount the fat32 as jack
[01:01] <Jack_Sparrow> irotas: I have seen it but dont remember where, I did reset mine...
[01:01] <demonspork> Riax, I am Running an Intel Core2duo E6600, Nvidia Geforce 8800GTS 320MB, 2GB RAM.   I downloaded the 64 bit disk and installed it, but I kept having problems with the nvidia driver, I could not get it to work
[01:01] <Zofo> Jack_Sparrow: i know that is slow on the live cd the problem is is that i am unable to install from the live cd and i was wondering if i could find a way to use the live to install in mybe the way the alternate does that i would be happy, but if there is no way of that then i will have to find a way to get another cd
[01:02] <cosmodad> Jack_Sparrow: I just told him, see above
[01:02] <Jack_Sparrow> File13: Dont worry about the fat32 you can set it up any time
[01:02] <irotas> cosmodad: ah, thanks!
[01:02] <cosmodad> irotas: use tune2fs -i {<days>d|<month>m|<weeks>w}
[01:02] <cosmodad> irotas: better check the manpage too
[01:02] <File13> well wouldnt it be easy to just set up in gpart now?
[01:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Zofo: If the live will not work with F6 and different options like noapic   added to the boot line you will need the alt cd
[01:03] <Riax> demonspork: Hmm, so maybe it's just best to install Ubuntu from the 32-bit disc anyway?
[01:03] <demonspork> Riax, there is also a 64 bit version of the Nvidia driver that you will need
[01:03] <CharlieSu> how can i tell what error code a program exited with?
[01:03] <demonspork> Riax, that Is my conclusion
[01:03] <pike_> Riax: not a compelling reason for 64bit unless you have an app that needs more than 4G ram at a time
[01:03] <Cyrus25801> how do I send a email to many ppl and let it show undisclosed recipients
[01:03] <File13> or do i even have to have a mount point if its fat32
[01:04] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: easiest way is to put all recipients in the BCC field and yourself in `to'
[01:04] <demonspork> Riax, also, if you want to test it out, it is really easy to install the 32-bit now and then install over it with the 64-bit when the disk comes in, and if that doesn't work out, just reinstall over that with the 32-bit again
[01:04] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: most mail servers will accept that
[01:04] <Julioso> hey all, I have a quick question about file systems and the boot drive
[01:04] <Zofo> Jack_Sparrow: ok thank you that kinda what i thoguth just wanted to cheack. this is for a frend thatl ive far away hes a linux noob and im not the best eather but im speading the love
[01:04] <demonspork> Riax, do have 2 computers handy?
[01:05] <Jared-Moore> Hi guys, I'm having trouble compiling GNOME applications. When running make, I always get a strange error - "Makefile:107: *** target pattern contains no `%'.  Stop." This always happens in the po/ directory. I have done "sudo apt-get build-dep XX" (where XX is what I'm trying to compile at the time) and I have installed gnome-common and all the autotools packages that I can find. This problem happens both when compiling from t
[01:05] <Jack_Sparrow> File13: sorry, trying to do too many things here...   no you dont need a mount point but you can make one..
[01:05] <irotas> cosmodad: i got it set, thanks again
[01:05] <Julioso> I'm getting this while installing Ubuntu: The GRUB boot loader installation often fails or hangs when /boot is on a XFS file system. Using LILO in this situation is recommended.
[01:05] <pike_> Riax: or use same seperate /home partition  and install / for 32 and 64 on seperate partitions
[01:05] <cosmodad> irotas: np
[01:05] <Riax> demonspork: I have my server, but I'm broke, so it's running an 800MHz P3.
[01:05] <Cyrus25801> cosmodad: wont the recipients see the other ppls email address then?
[01:05] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: nope.
[01:05] <Julioso> I would like to use XFS because I have read about its advantages over other FS types, but Ubuntu seems to believe that it isn't suitable to be the FS on the system drive, is this true?
[01:06] <n00dl3> Riax: pshh thats more than enough! XD
[01:06] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: BCC people can't see other people's BCC addresses
[01:06] <pike_> Julioso: if ya lose power one day it could be very bad
[01:06] <Riax> n00dl3: Not when you run 3 instances of HLDS.
[01:06] <Julioso> pike_: hmm, always a possibility around here, what does the GRUB boot loader do, anyway?
[01:06] <demonspork> Riax, it is more than enough to run an IRC client
[01:07] <Julioso> pike_: actually, I use a UPS, so power outages shouldn't affect my computer
[01:07] <pike_> Julioso: it installs to the first 512 bytes of hd and loads rest from a partition.. hangon gotta call
[01:07] <pike_> !grub | Julioso
[01:07] <ubotu> Julioso: 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
[01:07] <demonspork> Riax, my advice would be just to install the Ubuntu 32-bit, all the 64-bit does for you is make more complications
[01:07] <Riax> demonspork: It would be if I wasn't running 3 instances of Half-Life Dedicated Server, web, FTP, and 4 Teamspeak servers.
[01:08] <Cyrus25801> cosmodad: thanx a stack man
[01:08] <codename> Actually a Emerald Theme Manager
[01:08] <codename> i need help installing a theme
[01:08] <codename> from emerald
[01:08] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: np
[01:08] <demonspork> Riax, if it can handle all that why can't it run mIRC
[01:08] <addajkl> burning ubuntu live cd for my powerbook g4!
[01:08] <addajkl> im excited
[01:09] <File13> so it doesnt matter if i mount the fat32 at all?
[01:09] <Julioso> ahhh, interesting... any FS types other than ext3 good for system drive? maybe reiserfs or jfs?
[01:09] <Riax> demonspork: I didn't say it couldn't handle it, but if I actually login to Server 2003, it would only cause all 30-some players on my HL servers to lag to hell and back.
[01:10] <macd> reiser is nice for FS and small files, XFS works great for larger media drives
[01:10] <codename> i need help installing a theme
[01:10] <codename> i need help installing a theme
[01:10] <Julioso> hey ubotu, let's see how smart of a bot you are... what is LILO?
[01:11] <Cyrus25801> cosmodad: is their another way of doing it that only the person receiving the mail can see their email address or they can't see any email address
[01:11] <Riax> demonspork: Right now, everything's running as a service. Anyway, I think I've got all the info I need.
[01:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !patience > codename
[01:11] <codename> ok
[01:11] <Atlantiz> hey Jack Sparrow one more question it will only let me format for ext3 not ntfs on the first partition and the second too
[01:11] <dmglouis> can someone help me? whenever i use totem it goes fullscreen (with controls) without any window decoration. I have to watch all videos like that or full screen it. I have no option for resizing it
[01:11] <File13> yeah i dunno wtf is up
[01:12] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: using mailing-lists, it's possible too
[01:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Atlantiz: WIndows cd will format to ntfs for you, sorry but I was spread too thin...
[01:12] <Cyrus25801> cosmodad: how do you do that
[01:12] <demonspork> Riax, the live cd doesn't need to load the normal drivers, just install from the safe graphics mode, put the .run file in your new home folder, reboot into the new system, and type "sudo sh nvidiablahblahblah.run"
[01:12] <demonspork> Riax, that is just a quick synopsis
[01:13] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: that's a little bit harder. You need to set up an MTA like sendmail and do proper configuration.
[01:13] <Atlantiz> ok see ya then after the install
[01:13] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: I don't have experience with that myself
[01:13] <Cyrus25801> cosmodad: cool will look it up.thanx agin
[01:13] <cosmodad> Cyrus25801: an easier way is to subscribe to some free mailing list service
[01:13] <Riax> Alright, I'll try that.
[01:13] <Riax> I'm gonna go reboot now. My thanks to the two or three people who helped.
[01:14] <dmglouis> has anyone had a problem with totem opening up without any window decorations and unresizeable?
[01:14] <dmglouis> its basically fullscreen with controls and sidebar
[01:15] <ckin2001> can you press "f" to get out of fullscreen?
[01:16] <dmglouis> well its not in fullscreen mode, that mode works fine
[01:16] <dmglouis> its just mazimized without window decorations
[01:16] <Varreon> whats the command to start Transmission Bittorrent?
[01:18] <Administrator> hey how do i get under the modules section?
[01:18] <russe11> I have ubuntu running on a desktop and on my laptop - is there a way for me to sync appointments/tasks/contacts between the two?
[01:18] <codename> I'm trying to install a theme using Emerald Manager any ideas?
[01:20] <File13> ok so last time to be sure, i can just set it to fat32 and not worry about a mount point and it will show up on windows and ubuntu?
[01:20] <azrael_> Hello
[01:20] <jesse> HAIII, i needs sum halp
[01:21] <yurimxpxman> do any of you have the game Prey? If so, could you either message me or join #ubuntu-offtopic ?

[01:23] <addajkl> i just inserted the ubuntu live cd into my powerbook
[01:23] <asdf> does anyone know of a thesaurus app for Linux?
[01:23] <addajkl> if all goes well and it runs? what do i do to install it and have it dual boot with os x?
[01:23] <Menasim1> dmglouis: I mean from nothing
[01:23] <azrael_> i got Jack Rack and Jack EQ, is there another JAck program so i can turn Jack off and on
[01:24] <dmglouis> menasim1: sorry, im not sure about that
[01:24] <Grungebunny> addajkl should be an 'install' icon on your dekstop but I know nothing about dual booting with osx
[01:24] <Menasim1> dmglouis: aha, thank you anyway
[01:24] <Menasim1> if any one knows please tell me
[01:24] <addajkl> Grungebunny: thanks! well hopefully it will load up, im still waiting at the desktop for icons to show up
[01:24] <asdf> does anyone know of a thesaurus app for Linux?
[01:25] <Bulazeem> my main task bar is 48 pixels tall.  how can i set it so that the Window List can like stack up in there?  like instead of single rows in columns how could i do like 2 rows or maybe even 3?
[01:25] <scipio> asdf, moby thesaurus shows up in synaptic
[01:26] <lakin> I just got an ipod nano. I plug it in and rhythmbox recognizes it and I can see the  songs that it contains, but I can't copy music to it as root owns the mount and it was mounted with 'ro nosuid nodev noexeec umask=22 uid=0 gid=0 nls=utf8'  ... how do I change the manner in which ubuntu mounts it?
[01:27] <emeriste> Can Yahoo messenger be run in wine?
[01:27] <scipio> Bulazeem, why not add another one panel?
[01:28] <azrael_> Looking fo help with JACK
[01:28] <addajkl> *shrug* running ubuntu live cd, i get the mouse pointer and the desktop background, but thats pretty much it
[01:28] <Bulazeem> hrm now i just have the windows displaying twice lol
[01:28] <genii> emeriste: Probably but why not just use a linux IM client instead that does Yahoo protocol, like pidgin or so?
[01:29] <emeriste> I have no problem with pidgin as an instant messenger, but I would like to chat in Yahoo.
[01:29] <scipio> Bulazeem, on the new panel you can add whatever you want. launchers, notification area, window switcher etc.
[01:29] <Grungebunny> addajkl no menus or anything else?
[01:29] <emeriste> I think Yahoo has changed something and third party clients aren't working now.
[01:29] <codename> I'm trying to install a theme using Emerald Manager any ideas?
[01:29] <addajkl> Grungebunny: just the background, and a mouse pointer and i can move it
[01:29] <addajkl> thats it
[01:29] <scipio> emeriste, yahoo works fine with pidgin for me
[01:30] <Grungebunny> addajkl i'd try rebooting then...
[01:30] <emeriste> scipio - chat?
[01:30] <addajkl> Grungebunny: okay it sa live cd
[01:30] <scipio> emeriste, if you mean voice, no. text only
[01:30] <UncleD> Im trying to get X to run and I installed a new video card but only know it's made by "Asus" I dont know the model number.
[01:30] <emeriste> scipio - I don't need voice chat. I didn't think you could log into chat with pidgin.
[01:30] <UncleD> Is there a way to find out the model number of an installed video card without opening up the PC?

[01:31] <Sippy> Hi, does someone know of a 56k internal pci modem that supports voice and has a linux driver that also supports voice?  Ive been looking for over a week and I need some halp.
[01:31] <emeriste> Just try going into any of them. I don't think it's possible.
[01:31] <Sippy> or even a driver that supports voice would be a good start

[01:35] <Networksettings4> I'm having trouble with my wireless adapter - Ive just completed the ndiswrapper and my device is on and responsive
[01:35] <Networksettings4> but it can't connect to any networks successfully - even the unsecured ones my neighbors have
[01:35] <Joeb454> hey, i can't seem to use a .package file :S thought that it was meant to be platform agnostic :(
[01:35] <jrib> Joeb454: what are you trying to install?
[01:35] <Networksettings4> what are the terminal commands to connect to an ssid?
[01:35] <Joeb454> amsn. the version in the repositories is older than the latest version
[01:35] <tim167> hello
[01:36] <Shooree> hi, is there a sound-issue related tutorial somewhere?
[01:36] <tim167> can anyone help me get wireless working ?
[01:36] <Networksettings4> #wireless
[01:36] <jrib> Joeb454: generally, there's no reason to have the latest version of something.  Why do you need the latest version?
[01:37] <Joeb454> just wanted to make sure that if i had a.package file it would install, and figured being as i don't use it much, i'd try that
[01:37] <Joeb454> but it won't install, lol
[01:37] <ivan> hey how do i accept on my terminal when im installing sun java
[01:38] <jrib> Joeb454: I'd stay away from .package, stick to the repos and keep a healthy system :)
[01:38] <genii> azrael_: I don't use that but there seems something on it here, tho not specifically to with jack, it's an incidental subject. But you can get the idea https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSeq24Introduction and then the link from there on jack specifically
[01:38] <Bulazeem> scipio: please check the pm i sent you if you dont mind.  :-*

[01:39] <patrik> Hi I'm trying to get vncserver running but I can't get it to start the gnome window manager.  I've edited xstartup as suggested on several websites but I just get an X server with no WM. Any ideas?
[01:40] <Ice_> hi I have a problem connecting to networks wirelessly - I seem to have my wireless adapter working - any help would be appreciated
[01:40] <scipio> Bulazeem, didn't get one. anyway i tried to join a chat room but it doesn't seem to work. might be because i never used them and don't know a valid name
[01:41] <Bulazeem> http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1396/947419831_150f6cc191_o.jpg   i cant remember how i set the bottom part up so that the open windows stack like that.  i took that pic a long time ago but had to reformat recently =/
[01:42] <addajkl> is there a way to instal from the livd cd? without booting into it
[01:42] <addajkl> before i type 'live'
[01:42] <Joeb454> addajkl: not without booting it. you need the alternative CD i believe
[01:42] <Joeb454> then you get the old installer
[01:43] <scipio> Bulazeem, oh i see what you want
[01:43] <addajkl> Joeb454: :( i wish i could use this live cd, but it only boots up to the background and the mouse pointer
[01:43] <felipe_> hi, here(ubuntu feisty fawn) the slides(*.ppt, *.pps) is very lows, in openoffice and power point(crossover), we can help me?
[01:43] <felipe_> sorry my english, I'm brazilian :(
[01:44] <Reifster> Hi! I've got a Thinkpad R61 and just installed Feisty.. Whenever I play a sound, I can't hear anything coming out of the speaker
[01:44] <Reifster> In alsamixer, nothing is muted and it's all on full
[01:44] <Reifster> Anyone got any ideas ?
[01:44] <Ice_> hi I have a problem connecting to networks wirelessly - I seem to have my wireless adapter working - any help would be appreciated
[01:45] <eugman> Is there a way to run an old kernel like 2.6.18 ?
[01:45] <genii> Reifster: Make sure laptop hardware switch for sound is on. FN and some other key like possibly F6
[01:45] <Reifster> genii: It is :/
[01:46] <scipio> Bulazeem, when i right click on the panel-preferences-pixel size if i go over a certain limit they stack
[01:46] <scipio> Bulazeem, 71 for me. depends on your resolution i guess
[01:46] <Bulazeem> 1680x1050
[01:47] <addajkl> what is the difference with the alternate install?
[01:47] <ivan> how do i save a nano file in my termnal??
[01:48] <bruenig> addajkl, alternate install is the more conventional ncurses interface
[01:48] <genii> addajkl: You can install in text only mode and avoid graphic card gotchyas. Also you can monitor error output/progress on console 4
[01:48] <bruenig> ivan, ctrl + w, it says on the bottom
[01:48] <CoasterMaster> ivan: CTRL-O
[01:48] <Bulazeem> scipio: ah ok for me its 50.  ty vm, you got it all settled for me now :)
[01:48] <scipio> Bulazeem, glad it works
[01:48] <addajkl> genii: will someone who hasn't used linux before be able to install it using that?
[01:48] <bruenig> addajkl, yes
[01:48] <genii> addajkl: Yes
[01:48] <addajkl> ok thanks i appreciate it maybe that will work
[01:49] <addajkl> this live cd is saying no hah
[01:49] <ivan> !kubuntu
[01:49] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[01:49] <aoirthoir> addajkl, the text interface walks you through most things. There might be a couple questions someone new might not fully understand, but if you can install windows then you can install Ubuntu with the alternate cd.
[01:50] <addajkl> aoirthoir: im on a powerbook g4
[01:50] <omateos> hi
[01:50] <Ice_> hi I have a problem connecting to networks wirelessly - I seem to have my wireless adapter working - any help would be appreciated
[01:51] <Reifster> Anyone else have an idea as to why I can't hear any sounds ?
[01:51] <omateos> ???
[01:51] <Aethelred> Reifster: you're deaf?
[01:51] <Reifster> Aethelred: Not really
[01:51] <Reifster> I can hear the TV in the background :)
[01:51] <emeriste> scipio did you have any luck getting into a yahoo chat room?
[01:51] <Aethelred> Then no. Other than a cheap joke, I've got nothing for you.
[01:52] <Reifster> Bummer :/
[01:52] <Ice_> Reifster Im new to linux too but
[01:52] <Ice_> a lot of people come here asking that
[01:52] <Ice_> if you wait 10 minutes I bet someone else comes in and asks
[01:52] <scipio> emeriste, no. i don't know any valid name
[01:52] <scipio> !sound | Reifster
[01:52] <ubotu> Reifster: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:53] <Reifster> scipio: appreciate it, but I've already read all that.. I'm trying wavs and the card is detected etc.. right driver loadded, nothing muted :/
[01:53] <pike_> Reifster: often the sound is just muted
[01:53] <enix> when i goto menu>system>admin>login window i get an error saying that GDM is not running. but i am using gnome display manager. WTF?

[01:54] <pike_> KlrSpz: utorrent is an awful lot like utorrent

[02:03] <GoodHabit> Yes. A also did it.

[02:03] <GoodHabit> I did this and choosed ubuntustudio.

[02:04] <deMz> It's supported the TV card Hauppauge HVR-1600 on Linux ?
[02:05] <Pelo> Welshy,  you can'T boot into the gui ?  what videocard do you have ?
[02:05] <jrib> GoodHabit: does it work if you switch it to ubuntu?
[02:05] <Welshy> Well, I've used Ubuntu before Pelo, but I have an Intel Intergrated.
[02:05] <GoodHabit> jrib, work what, sorry?
[02:05] <mluser> GoodHabit: do you know what resolution it will use when rebuilding the usplash?
[02:05] <detectiveinspekt> jrib, it opens it in totem and totem doesn't work. When I go to properties and select the video tab it doesn't let me select mplayer, so the radio box is stuck on totem
[02:05] <salah> jrib, mine have 9 buttons, that's the problem
[02:05] <Pelo> Welshy, can you boot the recovery mode ?
[02:05] <Welshy> Pelo; when I launch Ubuntu, and type in my login/pass it gets accepted but they it loads into a brown screen and nothing loads. :?

[02:08] <Networksettings4> Varreon: sorry
[02:08] <jrib> detectiveinspekt: is mplayer listed?
[02:08] <GoodHabit> I will try now
[02:08] <Pelo> Administrator,  not every channel is as busy as this one,  you need to be patient , and you still haven'T stated a problem
[02:08] <Networksettings4> Varreon: It's a Dlink DWL G132  and its atheros based usb
[02:08] <Welshy> Pelo; How do I go about booting in Recovery mode?
[02:08] <Pelo> Welshy,   usualy the second option in grub ,

[02:08] <Networksettings4> Varreon: others have gotten it to work with dapper
[02:08] <genii> Welshy: On the brown screen if you try to scoll the mouse off the screen to top , does it find the bar above that? It may be you have a resolution set the monitor cannot do, so it makes the resolution you asked but you only see a portion that just appears all brown, like the gnome background.
[02:08] <Networksettings4> Ill PM you
[02:09] <Administrator> how do i access the modules in sections?
[02:09] <detectiveinspekt> yes it is listed jrib, mplayer and movieplayer (the one selected)

[02:18] <bruenig> DrMitch, tribe means alpha version
[02:19] <Pelo> DrMitch,  tribe are ( as far as I know)  steps of alpha toward beta
[02:19] <DrMitch> aaaaaaaah. ok
[02:19] <Frogzoo> DrMitch: tribes are gutsy releases
[02:19] <DrMitch> wtf, gutsy isn't even out yet, why are they working on the next?!
[02:19] <bruenig> DrMitch, they aren't
[02:19] <CoasterMaster> they aren't, they just have a name and a date
[02:19] <Pelo> DrMitch, these things need to be planned out
[02:19] <bruenig> DrMitch, but work is a bit of a stretch, write a few python front ends and repackage any new stuff and you have the new release
[02:20] <bruenig> pretty simple
[02:20] <CaptainFrisbee> Rorshach, you can also add a Volume Control setting to the preferences menu, just right-click on System, and the panel edit menu
[02:21] <bruenig> I imagine they could crank out a new release in a few weeks
[02:21] <ikbear> so what?
[02:21] <Rorshach> CaptainFrisbee: okay, I turned up all the sliders, but to no effect. I know the sound card works, but I'm just curious if it's only a windows card.
[02:21] <Netham45> hahahaha
[02:21] <`davo> I dont think I'm doing this right..
[02:22] <Netham45> I love OpenSSH's logo
[02:22] <ikbear> hi, everyone
[02:22] <Netham45> crap, this is the wrong channel
[02:22] <suupaabaka> Has anybody had any luck using h264 codecs?
[02:22] <KrAmMeR> do i have to open certain ports for apollon to connect to the networks?
[02:22] <CaptainFrisbee> Rorshach, it's a standard soundblaster live?
[02:22] <cafuego> suupaabaka: Yes, my h264 stuff works fine.
[02:23] <sikor_sxe> hello, quite recently i noticed that evolution stumbles over some spam-mails

[02:24] <Marfi> < ronzo
[02:24] <harris2005> is there a way to control my ipod through ubuntu
[02:25] <harris2005> its showing up
[02:25] <sikor_sxe> cafuego: is there no workaround?

[02:25] <Rorshach> CaptainFrisbee, I'm currently checking the alsa site to find out more about the issue.

[02:25] <Lichnet> My friend now got DHCP connection again. He did pppoeconf, now to connect he is disabling and enabling the internet using the icon on the gnome panel. So maybe the pppoeconf is affecting it? How to DISABLE the pppoe connection, now its DHCP?
[02:25] <sikor_sxe> i can't read my mails rights now because of this
[02:25] <harris2005> thanks
[02:25] <cafuego> sikor_sxe: None thats I've found, short of removing the mail from the mailbox via some other client. That works for imap, but not so much for local mail storage.
[02:25] <CoasterMaster> harris2005: also, the built in rhythmbox has iPod support
[02:25] <sikor_sxe> damn, i got pop3
[02:26] <cafuego> sikor_sxe: You may be able to edit the mailbox file, but if you try that, *back it up* first
[02:26] <DrMitch> for some reason, while booting the livecd of xubuntu, my computer completely stalls, mouse freezes, not even the numlock key works. i'm on debian right now. should i work on getting ubuntu or just keep my sexy debian lenny install?

[02:27] <CaptainFrisbee> Rorshach, when you ran alsamixer did you adjust the Wave slider? There are more sliders visible if you resize the window.

[02:30] <ticnailer69> Once I have connected via sftp and I am at the command line, how can I access files?
[02:30] <CaptainFrisbee> Rorshach, if you resize the window of alsamixer in terminal, there is no wave slider visible?
[02:31] <Networksettings4> Marfi: I have a dlink card
[02:31] <n2diy__> ticnailer69: what do you mean by access files, You can't open them with an ftp client.

[02:37] <matthew_> it's a neat ap but i can't find anything to use it for
[02:37] <usser> orudie: audacity?
[02:38] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie, for multi-track recording I think you can use Ardour. But the latest isn't in the repos yet. You can try getdeb.net
[02:38] <Rorshach> I wonder if updating to the latest version of alsa-mixer would do the trick.
[02:38] <fleabit> am wanting to set my mic on realtek HD and ubuntu any help???

[02:40] <xptical> Hi all
[02:40] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: i'm using beryl
[02:40] <tinfury> marko-_-, I guess it's the same thing. I don't understand something
[02:40] <marko-_-> what
[02:40] <tinfury> how do I get themes to work
[02:40] <toyimp> hello
[02:40] <marko-_-> oh god
[02:40] <tinfury> Like for example
[02:40] <marko-_-> i got the same problem
[02:40] <marko-_-> here
[02:40] <marko-_-> but i don't care much about it
[02:40] <xptical> I currently use WinXP at home.  My wife and I use Fast User Switching to keep separate desktops
[02:41] <CharlieSu> Does anyone know of a linux program that is basically like WinSCP that uses an ncurses interface?
[02:41] <xptical> is there a Linux-based program that does the same
[02:41] <kbrooks> question, um...
[02:41] <tinfury> In emerald theme manager there is no OK button
[02:41] <xptical> allow two users to share one computer without logging the other user off?
[02:41] <tinfury> I care.. :) I  installed beryl for looks alone
[02:41] <tinfury> lol
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: as soon as you choose a theme, it should change, then you hit quit.
[02:41] <luciano25> oi
[02:41] <orudie> CaptainFrisbee, thank you , i'm going to check it out
[02:42] <jrib> xptical: system -> quit -> switch user
[02:42] <toyimp> What program gives the feature of the 3D Cube that I see on YouTube all the time?
[02:42] <Rorshach> CaptainFrisbee, wow, who'd a thunk? that certainly helped. aparently the sound had been rerouted to my digital output.
[02:42] <drgeb> I keep getting this error "genisoimage: Value too large for defined data type" when using gnomebaker but the size is < 4.7 any ideas ??
[02:42] <GoodHabit> It is again me ) Yes, it was low-latency kernel. But now I cannot load nvidia kernel modules. What can i do with it?
[02:42] <xptical> will that kill the programs that one user is running?
[02:42] <Marfi> toyimp, compiz!
[02:42] <jrib> xptical: no
[02:42] <GoodHabit> So X do not want to start.
[02:42] <xptical> it's that simple?
[02:42] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie, also take a look at Rosegarden
[02:42] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, Oh. I figured but it doesn't.... I don't even have the minimize restore close buttons once beryl is managing my X
[02:42] <jrib> xptical: yep :)
[02:42] <xptical> and it works?
[02:42] <jrib> xptical: yep...
[02:42] <toyimp> marfi, I just install that and shouldn't have any problems?
[02:42] <CaptainFrisbee> Rorshach, glad that it's fixed :)
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: oh you have a different beryl bug... what type of video card?
[02:42] <Marfi> toyimp, do you have 7.04 installed?
[02:43] <toyimp> marfi, Yep I do
[02:43] <xptical> fricking linux people.  This thing is just too easy now...
[02:43] <orudie> CaptainFrisbee, which think do you think is better for what i have described to you
[02:43] <Rorshach> hehe, yeah, tyvm for the help.
[02:43] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, Nvidia
[02:43] <xptical> what ever happoened to linking libs
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[02:43] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, 7400
[02:43] <xptical> and recompiling kernels
[02:43] <LukeEkblad> when i upgrade to the latest version of ubuntu (gusty) do I loos all my files?
[02:43] <Marfi> toyimp, go to system > prefferences > desktop effects, and enable it, and watch your windows wabble
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: do you have the little "Diamond" icon in your taskbar?
[02:43] <xptical> thanks
[02:43] <Marfi> =)
[02:43] <tinfury> Yea
[02:43] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, Yea
[02:43] <wastrel> xptical:  i'm happy enough not to have to rebuild my kernel for new hardware anymore
[02:43] <Atlantiz> hey Jack Sparrow the install worked great
[02:43] <tinfury> It's like a Ruby
[02:43] <jrib> LukeEkblad: your computer may explode, it's in development.  In short, have backups.  Losing all your files isn't intended though
[02:43] <xptical> oh, is that just in mainline, or does Kubuntu also have that?
[02:44] <forest> does anyone know where is the file containing  http://boredklink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o so i can replace it
[02:44] <toyimp> Marfi, yeah, I have that but that's not what I'm lookin for. :) I want the full cube.
[02:44] <jrib> xptical: not sure about kde, ask in #kubuntu if no one here knows
[02:44] <xptical> thanks
[02:44] <LukeEkblad> jrib:  ok
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: when i have had that problem, this is the command i ran.. after running it, restart X, then restart beryl...  <FusioBot> To fix your beryl/compiz window decorations (titlebars) with an nVidia graphics card, run  sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24
[02:44] <kbrooks> is there a way to switch into a mode that locks down settings so that you cannot change them at all?
[02:44] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie, I don't think there is one program which can do all those things. You can use for example Audacity for editing, Ardour for multitrack recording, Rosegarden for composing, Hydrogen for as a drum computer etcetera
[02:44] <jrib> LukeEkblad: if you wait until it's released then you should be ok, but backups are good to have anway
[02:45] <Atlantiz> hey guys i just got done installing ubuntu, shouldn't i create an account separate from root?
[02:45] <tinfury> Yea.. I'm running at 32 right now.
[02:45] <LukeEkblad> can anyone tell me the main changes in gusty?
[02:45] <bruenig> !root | Atlantiz
[02:45] <ubotu> Atlantiz: 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
[02:45] <jrib> LukeEkblad: gutsy help in #ubuntu+1
[02:45] <LukeEkblad> jrib:  when dose it releas?
[02:45] <Flannel> Atlantiz: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, and no, you don't need to make another user account
[02:45] <jrib> LukeEkblad: 7.10 == 2007 october
[02:45] <Atlantiz> awsome
[02:46] <Atlantiz> i love this already
[02:46] <bruenig> awesome?
[02:46] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie, you can also try the Dynebolic distro, which comes with a lot of music apps preinstalled.
[02:46] <Marfi> toyimp, let me try to find the name of the package that will let you configure it
[02:46] <LukeEkblad> dose anyone have that thing where you can wistle to open different things?
[02:46] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie, or UbuntuStudio ofcourse :)
[02:46] <kbrooks> is there a way to switch into a mode that locks down settings so that you cannot change them at all (i mean gconf settings, it would pop up a msg saying "access denied by system administrator."?
[02:46] <tinfury> Indy Run the command 1st then logout and back in right?
[02:46] <kbrooks> )? *
[02:46] <toyimp> marfi, thank you so much.
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: well, you need to restart X... control alt backspace, after running the command.
[02:47] <bruenig> kbrooks, gconf settings are user specific, you don't want the user to be able to edit his own gconf stuff?
[02:47] <wastrel> kbrooks:  maybe chmod the gnome config files read only?
[02:47] <Marfi> toyimp, gnome-compiz-manager
[02:47] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, Yea... that's another question. cntrl alt back never works for me
[02:47] <orudie> CaptainFrisbee, is ubuntustudio preinstalled in feisty
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: well that i can't explain.
[02:47] <tinfury> lol ok lemme log back in
[02:47] <tinfury> 1 sec
[02:47] <toyimp> Marfi, thank you so much :)
[02:47] <Marfi> toyimp, once you install it, opens in system > prefferences, and will be GL desktop, or something like that
[02:48] <Marfi> <3
[02:48] <toyimp> kk
[02:48] <jrib> kbrooks: read the admin guides at library.gnome.org, that may cover some of what you want
[02:48] <CaptainFrisbee> orudie,  look at the ubuntustudio packages in the repositories
[02:48] <kbrooks> well, the problem is, i want to take my ubuntu lappy to school, but how do i hide certain things / disable them (NOT remove them) so that i will be dissuaded from changing the settings while I'm at school?
[02:48] <Badpenguin86> Just installed quake4.. can't find config file, any help?
[02:49] <Marfi> Badpenguin86, locate <name of file> in terminal
[02:49] <xptical> Should I use the AMD 64 release?  I have a AMD64 proc. I ask because WinXP64 is shit. Just want to know if ubuntu-64 is also, well, you know, shit.
[02:49] <Marfi> Badpenguin86, are you trying to run it?
[02:49] <kbrooks> i mean things like alt+f2, ctrl+alt+f1-f7, etc
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> xptical: no.. stick with 32bit..
[02:49] <Marfi> xptical, from what i have herd, it runs pretty decently
[02:49] <bruenig> kbrooks, you can always -w them, but to get that to pop with a custom error or pop up with an error at all might be tough
[02:49] <Administrator> omg i need help fast!!!
[02:50] <Marfi> disregard that. =)
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> xptical: if you're inexperienced, just stick with 32bit, you'll thank us all later.
[02:50] <exsequor> Can someone help me configure a wireless connection from command line?
[02:50] <Ademan> xptical: i generally hear good things about it, but i know that some things (such as flash) aren't supported, as well as some codecs if i'm not mistaken
[02:50] <toyimp> Marfi, any idea what version is the latest?
[02:50] <Administrator> i just got this message from my terminal(it wasnt even open):hammy@hammy-laptop:~$

[02:51] <Administrator> why?!
[02:51] <n2diy> ! repeat | Administrator
[02:51] <ubotu> Administrator: 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
[02:51] <Administrator> well what does it mean
[02:51] <jrib> Administrator: because you were told before not to spam the channel with multiple lines
[02:51] <markelhas> jrib, ok then i've got 5 passes
[02:51] <Administrator> im sorry but
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> admincuz its annoying as hell.
[02:52] <Ademan> Administrator: its disabling an irq, which is for input/output, if everything still works, it probably did it for good reason, and everythings fine
[02:52] <UncleD> I'm having trouble running startx. I keep getting these errors: http://pastie.caboo.se/92271
[02:52] <Administrator> ok thank you bye
[02:52] <markelhas> jrib, i've a problem with mem, my ubuntu don't work fine with 1g of mem
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> Administrator: the sky is falling, i suggest an umbrella
[02:52] <kbrooks> how do i download data from dict online and then update it when I get home - I want to do all this so that I can quickly retrieve dictionary data while I am at school.
[02:52] <markelhas> jrib, to os run ok i've to remove a sim of 512
[02:52] <tinfury> ANyone know how I can check my current color depth ?
[02:52] <Administrator> IndyGunFreak: i suggest you kill your self
[02:52] <bruenig> kbrooks, rsync perhaps
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> Administrator: lol, naa my ubuntu install works perfectly.
[02:53] <Ademan> UncleD: O_o, that doesn't look good, have you just flat out restarted?

[02:53] <ubotu> Administrator: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:53] <UncleD> Ademan: Think that a reboot would help?
[02:53] <Ademan> UncleD: worth a try at the very least
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> tinfury: <FusioBot> To completely reset all beryl settings:  rm ~/.beryl-managerrc; mv ~/.beryl ~/.beryl.save; mv ~/.emerald ~/.emerald.save 
[02:53] <jrib> markelhas: and memtest reports no errors?
[02:53] <Ademan> UncleD: but those errors concern me
[02:53] <markelhas> jrib, i've tested 2 different 512 sim and the os is very very very slow even slower then live cd
[02:54] <Administrator> !gtfo | bruenig
[02:54] <kbrooks> bruenig, is there a dictionary program that can use text files located on the HD for dictionary data?
[02:54] <ubotu> bruenig: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.

[02:54] <markelhas> jrib, no errors. i've put a sim of 256 and os is just fine.do u have any ideia what's up?
[02:54] <tinfury> IndyGunFreak, ok lemme try that
[02:55] <GoodHabit> I cannot use nvidia-glx-new. Can smb help me?
[02:55] <UncleD> Ademan: machine is rebooting :)
[02:55] <jrib> markelhas: can't think of anything... did you try a different OS with the 1gb?
[02:55] <GoodHabit> *after ubuntu - ubuntustudio
[02:55] <Xcerca> GoodHabit   use the program Envy
[02:55] <Xcerca> thats what i used
[02:55] <steph_16th> UncleD: try starx -- :1
[02:55] <wolferine> GoodHabit,dont use Envy
[02:55] <clever> how would i compare 2 ubuntu kernels to see what changes where made in them?
[02:55] <wolferine> GoodHabit, Feisty ?
[02:55] <steph_16th> UncleD: it will star on tty8
[02:55] <GoodHabit> Feisty, yes.
[02:55] <Xcerca> i used envy ,  it worked

[02:56] <bruenig> !worksforme | Xcerca
[02:56] <Ademan> !envy
[02:56] <wolferine> GoodHabit, using xchat ?
[02:56] <ubotu> Xcerca: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[02:56] <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!
[02:56] <GoodHabit> Envy is not on repo, (
[02:56] <n2diy> clever, ask in #ubuntu-kernel?
[02:56] <markelhas> jrib, previously i'd windows xp and work just fine.
[02:56] <Flannel> clever: The changelog is probably the easiest location
[02:56] <GoodHabit> wolferine, yes, using xchat.
[02:56] <GoodHabit> Why?
[02:56] <Ademan> don't ever use envy
[02:56] <wolferine> GoodHabit, /exec -o lspci | grep VGA
[02:56] <wastrel> i have an email account
[02:56] <clever> Flannel: i'll check that once i find out which kernels to compare
[02:56] <Atlantiz> I'm doing all the updates for ubuntu since i just installed it
[02:56] <Atlantiz> :D
[02:56] <wolferine> GoodHabit, type that in xchat
[02:56] <jrib> markelhas: and  'top'  shows nothing out of the ordinary in ubuntu with the 1gb?
[02:56] <wolferine> or copy/paste
[02:56] <GoodHabit> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600]  (rev a2)
[02:56] <Lichnet> LPCM OR AC3, Which one is the best for dvd playing? My dvd-rom has these two options!
[02:57] <wolferine> GoodHabit, post your xrog.conf on pastebin
[02:57] <markelhas> jrib, old time i've used knoppix and i didn't have no problems. But it was old kernel version.
[02:57] <wastrel> wolferine:  hopefully he doesn't have 6 video cards :] 
[02:57] <GoodHabit> I runned it under vesa driver
[02:57] <wolferine> !pastebin | GoodHabit
[02:57] <GoodHabit> Ok, sec.

[02:57] <toyimp> um, I am getting a 'Sorry try again' when I try to log into Root..

[02:57] <jrib> !root > toyimp (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:57] <toyimp> I know I am using the right password
[02:57] <Marfi> wastrel, if i had 6 cards all connected...i'd take it
[02:57] <exsequor> How do I find the essid of my wireless card?
[02:57] <wolferine> Ademan, /exec -o posts to the channel
[02:57] <markelhas> jrib, top show that if a try to open a terminal it jumps to 100%
[02:57] <Xcerca> is there a package similar to wine ,  but it can run mac software ?
[02:57] <wolferine> Ademan, /help exec
[02:58] <bruenig> Xcerca, no
[02:58] <UncleD> Ademan: A reboot fixed the problem :)
[02:58] <markelhas> jrib, and the boot takes like 12-15 min
[02:58] <Ademan> UncleD: wonderful
[02:58] <wolferine> GoodHabit, did you use the 'restricted drivers manager' to setup the driver ?
[02:58] <steph_16th> UncleD: did you try "startx -- :1"?
[02:58] <UncleD> steph_16th: I didnt even need to do startx at all.
[02:58] <GoodHabit> wolferine, no, i used aptitude
[02:58] <tonyyarusso> !root | toyimp
[02:58] <ubotu> toyimp: 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

[02:58] <GoodHabit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35620/ - my xorg.conf

[02:59] <Ademan> hey is that new nifty gtk xorg configurator in backports or anything?
[02:59] <jrib> markelhas: I don't know what's going on, maybe someone else can help you.  #hardware might have suggestions too but it seems to be an ubuntu/linux issue since windows worked fine for you
[02:59] <wolferine> GoodHabit, if not, come back and ill look at your xorg.conf

[02:59] <mannytu> *Hi
[02:59] <wolferine> GoodHabit, the RDM should do it for you in a flash
[02:59] <LukeEkblad> Dose anyone know of any programs that are like windows media center?
[02:59] <jrib> !ati > n00blet (see the private message from ubotu)
 GoodHabit, go try the 'R D M' and see if you can get it to fly - what is RDM?
[02:59] <n00blet> !ati
[02:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
 GoodHabit, did you use the 'restricted drivers manager' to setup the driver ?
[03:00] <markelhas> jrib, i've asked a lot and google to solve this but same result
[03:00] <GoodHabit> Oh, ^)
[03:00] <wolferine> RDM== Restricted Driver Manager
[03:00] <wolferine> :P
[03:00] <GoodHabit> Sorry. I will try now
[03:00] <wolferine> np :)
[03:00] <bilodeaum> salut gang de pd!
[03:00] <wolferine> salut bilodeaum
[03:00] <wolferine> GoodHabit, I have to run to the store, bbiab :)
[03:00] <exsequor> Bruenig, How do I find the essid of my wireless card?
[03:01] <bruenig> exsequor, essid is the access point
[03:01] <GoodHabit> Can i use sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart instead of rebooting?
[03:01] <mneptok> GoodHabit: ctl-alt-bkspc
[03:01] <seba> :)
[03:01] <mneptok> and there he goes
[03:01] <LukeEkblad> i have a problem, i have to enable the external speakers every time i want my laptop speakers to play and disable them whenever i want only m y headphones to play. why is this? can i fix it?
[03:01] <Scunizi> GoodHabit, both will work
[03:01] <seba> efficently pressed
[03:02] <UncleD> Ademan: Can I update to the latest version of ubuntu from breezy 5.10 through synaptic?
[03:02] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: make a script
[03:02] <bruenig> LukeEkblad, what do you mean enable disable? like plug and unplug them in or ...
[03:02] <Ademan> UncleD: WOW, from breezy? i'm thinking that would probably be a rough ride
[03:02] <mneptok> UncleD: do Breezy>Dapper>Edgy>Feisty
[03:02] <UncleD> mneptok: How do I go from breezy to dapper, to start
[03:02] <markelhas> jrib, other kestion what do u use to connect to irc?
[03:02] <UncleD> Is there a simple means to doing so.
[03:02] <genii> Ouch thats a long road
[03:02] <bruenig> discrete releases get another victim
[03:02] <LukeEkblad> bruenig:  yea
[03:03] <jrib> markelhas: I use irssi, xchat is nice if you want a gui though
[03:03] <Scunizi> UncleD, or create a seperate home partition, put all your data in there then do a fresh install.
[03:03] <bruenig> LukeEkblad, so what are you wanting exactly?
[03:03] <klepto> rhythmbox doesn't play mp3's either and i have lame and the lame gstream installed too
[03:03] <Ademan> UncleD: i've never had a good experience upgrading, i always back up my home partition and just do a fresh install
[03:03] <jrib> !upgrade > UncleD (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:03] <mneptok> UncleD: replace all instances of "breezy" with "dapper" in /etc/apt/sources.lst then "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[03:03] <markelhas> jrib, i'm using xchat, but missing the user list
[03:03] <genii> UncleD: I'd take Scunizi 's advice
[03:03] <Scunizi> !restricted | klepto
[03:03] <UncleD> hmm
[03:03] <ubotu> klepto: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:03] <klepto> been there
[03:03] <klepto> a few minutes ago
[03:03] <UncleD> I do use this machine for some valuable stuff I wouldnt want to lose all that stuff.
[03:03] <jrib> markelhas: right click on the right, there should be an option to show it
[03:04] <UncleD> I suppose I could do a data-backup first
[03:04] <LukeEkblad> bruenig:   i want it so everytime i plug in my headphones it disables the external speakers and everytime i plug them in, it enables the external speakers
[03:04] <mneptok> klepto: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3
[03:04] <klepto> will do
[03:04] <Ademan> UncleD: well what other people are saying could work just fine, but i've never had a good experience
[03:04] <Scunizi> !mp3 |klepto
[03:04] <ubotu> klepto: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:04] <LukeEkblad> i mean unplug them
[03:04] <exsequor> Bruenig, it always says unrecognised wireless request
[03:04] <Marfi> UncleD, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-87262.html
[03:04] <klepto> mneptok: already have the latest version installed
[03:05] <Ademan> but then again i've only been through 2 releases, i know edgy->fiesty was supposed to be easy
[03:05] <azrael_> Can someone help me walkthough how to install my Tascam US-122 card
[03:05] <Ademan> oh yeah, does anyone know if ubuntu desktop is going to have lvm in gutsy?
[03:05] <azrael_> Ive tried every walkthough online and can't get it to work
[03:05] <wastrel> edgy->feisty was easy
[03:05] <wastrel> easiest ever
[03:05] <Scunizi> klepto, its the gstreamer plugins that you need not lame.. lame does mp3 for other things.
[03:05] <exsequor> Bruenig, I typed   iwconfig eth1 eclipse 0987654321
[03:05] <mneptok> klepto: then Rbox should play mp3s
[03:05] <mneptok> klepto: make sure things aren't muted
[03:05] <Reifster> Hi, how can I run a script with root privileges without having to supply a password? I've written a script to run when I press a key combination.. but it's executed when the monitor is turned off.. so I can't/don't wnat to give a password
[03:06] <klepto> mp3's play fine in mplayer
[03:06] <Reifster> I've tried putting it in /etc/sudoers with NOPASSWD, but no go ?
[03:06] <klepto> but listen music player/rhythmbox don't play them
[03:06] <markelhas> jrib, the proper channel for this is hardware?
[03:06] <toyimp> I can't get Compiz to compile
[03:06] <jrib> markelhas: no, here is good too, but both channels may be able to offer suggestions
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> klepto: then its likely a rhythmbox issue, not a codec issue.
[03:06] <n2diy> Reifster: change the permissions of the script file.
[03:06] <UncleD> Scunizi: How do I create that home partition as you suggested.
[03:06] <Marfi> exsequor, try iwconfing eth1 ssid <ssid> key <key>
[03:06] <Reifster> n2diy: To what ?
[03:06] <mneptok> klepto: gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 provides mp3 support to any gstreamer apps. if it's installed, both Totem and Rbox will work.
[03:06] <Flannel> toyimp: You're in luck! you don't need to compile it.
[03:06] <Evanlec> quick question: what do i need to configure to let bittorrent application through firewall (unmodified ubuntu 7.04)
[03:07] <toyimp> How do I install it or get it to work then?
[03:07] <mneptok> toyimp: compile? why are you compililng Compiz?
[03:07] <Evanlec> lol
[03:07] <Marfi> Evanlec, allowing the application for the ports
[03:07] <Marfi> toyimp, did you enable desktop effects?
[03:07] <toyimp> Yes
[03:07] <Evanlec> Marfi can u point me in the right direction to do that?
[03:07] <LukeEkblad> dose anyone know how to make it so when i plug in my headphones it disables my external speakers and everytime I unplug them it enables them?
[03:07] <krammer_> I am looking for a program but cannot remember the correct spelling something like pidgeon?
[03:07] <mneptok> LukeEkblad: Gutsy?
[03:07] <exsequor> Marfi, unrecognised wireless request
[03:08] <Grungebunny> krammer_ pidgin ?
[03:08] <klepto> totem players mp3's just fine too
[03:08] <n2diy> Reifster: whatever you think is prudent.
[03:08] <LukeEkblad> mneptok:  huh?
[03:08] <Scunizi> UncleD, you can use gparted from within Ubuntu or a live bootable version (preferred), make the partition with that. copy your data (don't delete the original data). Change fstab to reflect the new location of /home. reboot
[03:08] <UBUNOOBI1> how do I get my realtek alc861 sound working?
[03:08] <klepto> maybe it is a libxine/totem issue
[03:08] <genii> Evanlec: open up ports 6881-6889 on router to forward to your internal machine running the bittorrent
[03:08] <Flannel> toyimp: If you don't want to use compiz from the ubuntu repos, compiz fusion is available in a third party: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompizFusion
[03:08] <mneptok> klepto: then Rbox will
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: do you have a hardware firewall?.. you probably need to configure it.
[03:08] <zerobias> pidgin
[03:08] <Reifster> n2diy: That won't allow me to execute the file as another user without giving a password
[03:08] <krammer_> sweet thank you
[03:08] <mneptok> LukeEkblad: what release are you using?
[03:08] <yurimxpxman> do any of you know what the status of using OOXML files in OpenOffice.org is?
[03:08] <Evanlec> IndyGunFreak I have configured my router to forward the ports...
[03:08] <Marfi> Evanlec, it will be in the settings for the firewall
[03:08] <LukeEkblad> festy mneptok
[03:08] <mneptok> yurimxpxman: not implemented
[03:08] <toyimp> ty flannel
[03:08] <Marfi> exsequor, you'll have to input the ssid and key
[03:08] <toyimp> And, what's repos mean?
[03:09] <mneptok> LukeEkblad: Intel HDA sound?
[03:09] <Evanlec> i was wondering if there was a default firewall type thing set up with ubuntu, it sounds like there isnt
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: then youu should be fine, the software firewall is "Off" by default, so just set the program to check the ports you've opened in your firewall.
[03:09] <Marfi> toyimp, repository
[03:09] <n2diy> Reifster: then you'd have to let everyone us it, which isn't prudent.
[03:09] <exsequor> Marfi, I did
[03:09] <toyimp> ah
[03:09] <LukeEkblad> mneptok:  er, i duno, how do i check?
[03:09] <yurimxpxman> mneptok: they have a ticket on the site about it.. I'm not sure if anyone's gotten the library to work in oo.o yet or not
[03:09] <genii> Reifster: Did you get your also situation sorted out?
[03:09] <Pici> !firewall | Evanlec
[03:09] <ubotu> Evanlec: 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).
[03:09] <Evanlec> right but all 4 bt clients ive tried seem to be quite slow
[03:09] <UBUNOOBI1> how do I get my realtek alc861 sound working on 7.04?
[03:09] <genii> Reifster: ALSA rather :)
[03:09] <exsequor> Marfi, I typed  iwconfig eth1 ssid eclipse key 0987654321
[03:09] <toyimp> I'm a nub with linux. I messed with RedHat like 7 years ago. And haven't touched it since
[03:09] <Grungebunny> toyimp welcome back
[03:10] <n00blet> jrib: thanks for that bot help but that doesn't really say anything concerning the driver that I had downloaded from ati.com. It mentions doing it through terminal but doesn't say anything about the ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run that I had downloaded.
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: well, the software firewall is off by default, are you sure its not a seeding issue?
[03:10] <Reifster> genii: Ah there you are, I wanted to thank you, but coulnd't remember the nick :) Yeah that did it, thanks a bunch!
[03:10] <toyimp> hehe
[03:10] <toyimp> thank you >.<
[03:10] <Evanlec> positive
[03:10] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: menu > system > preferences > hardware
[03:10] <Evanlec> torrent has over 1000 seeders
[03:10] <Reifster> genii: Just sleep mode left, then I'm done and everything's working :)
[03:10] <genii> Reifster: Glad to help :)
[03:10] <jrib> n00blet: because you aren't supposed to use the one from ati.com, use the one from the repos
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: what client are you using?
[03:10] <Evanlec> its gotta be a connection issue, bittornado shows yellow icon, meaning no incoming connections
[03:10] <musya> !svn
[03:10] <ubotu> svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[03:10] <boboy23> hi all
[03:10] <Evanlec> right now bittornado, but i tried BT, KTorrent as well
[03:10] <klepto> it's just strange.. it sees the mp3's but when playing no sound
[03:10] <tonyyarusso> aptitude installed Recommends packages by default, while apt-get does not.  What would I need to do to get this behaviour in apt-get?

[03:13] <UncleD> Im attempting to update my packages and I am getting E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temorarily unavailable)
[03:13] <Ice__> DrMitch: so my question is, is anyone here very experienced with linux and wifi
[03:13] <Scunizi> musya, partimage
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> Wiseguy: i had that problem, I ended up restarting X after I compiled it, and when i signed back on, the icon was there.
[03:13] <Flannel> UncleD: close any other package managers you've got open
[03:13] <toyimp> Any word on X-Fi driver support? Or is it a lost project?
[03:13] <Wiseguy> IndyGunFreak, ok cool, thanks
[03:13] <DrMitch> Ice__, tons of people here probably are.
[03:13] <genii> UncleD: Likely yopur update manager or package manager is open somewhere, or running in background
[03:13] <musya> Scunizi: can it be done in terminal?
[03:13] <musya> i dont have x
[03:13] <musya> its a server
[03:13] <Ice__> DrMitch: are you?
[03:13] <GoodHabit> Can i have program like krusader or windowscommader(totalcomander)?
[03:14] <GoodHabit> I cannot find good.
[03:14] <Scunizi> musya, not sure, never tried
[03:14] <clever> how would i go about findoug out which dep line is giving a certain package?
[03:14] <exsequor> How do I configure a wireless connection from command line?
[03:14] <Flannel> GoodHabit: midnight commander (mc) is in the repos
[03:14] <clever> exsequor: iwconfig
[03:14] <GoodHabit> mc is console
[03:14] <Scunizi> musya, its also a live bootable cd
[03:14] <GoodHabit> i need gui
[03:14] <n00blet> If it says this # DISABLED_MODULES="ath_hal fc fglrx ltm nv" in "linux restricted modules common, would I just take out the fglrx if needed and save?
[03:14] <Flannel> clever: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[03:14] <genii> Flannel: Darn, beat me to it :)
[03:14] <UBUNOOBI1> anybody know how to get the alc861 sound going? I have it listed as a device but maybe the driver isnt on or running... i dunno where to check
[03:14] <DrMitch> there are so many topics that can be covered in wifi. i know how the process works, i've set it up before. i have it running right now.
[03:14] <musya> Scunizi: ok, thanks
[03:14] <Scunizi> musya, another thing to look at is rsync
[03:14] <exsequor> clever, I typed  iwconfig eth1 ssid eclipse key 0987654321
[03:14] <musya> is it the same?
[03:14] <CaptainFrisbee> GoodHabit, take a look at gnome commander
[03:14] <Scunizi> no
[03:14] <GoodHabit> TY
[03:14] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  intell alsa
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> krammer_: what problem are you having with pidgin?
[03:15] <exsequor> clever, It says unrecognised wireless request
[03:15] <Ice__> Hi all, my problem is that I have a USB Dongle set up and the wifi radar is working and can see unprotected and protected networks but can connect to no networks and I don't believe this is a simple fix.  My pastebin is at http://pastebin.com/m52dc1308 .
[03:15] <krammer_> I am use to using apt-get but i only downloaded it
[03:15] <clever> exsequor: try one peice at a time(iwconfig eth1 essid eclipse)
[03:15] <krammer_> new to this scene
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> krammer_: type this w/o quotes.. "/join #op"
[03:15] <exsequor> clever, will do
[03:15] <krammer_> "/join #op"
[03:15] <wastrel> hardy heron?
[03:16] <clever> Flannel: that mearly shows me the package name its in(faster then my other methods, but not what i wanted)
[03:16] <krammer_> oh
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> krammer_: yes
[03:16] <CaptainFrisbee> UBUNOOBI1, I found this thread on ubuntuforums: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-257304.html

[03:16] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: tell that to mneptok, he was helping you, but try writing a script for that :)

[03:16] <ubotu> Package pidgin does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:16] <toyimp> Any word on X-Fi driver support? Or is it a lost project?
[03:16] <Evanlec> !pidgin
[03:16] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  i have no idea how to do that
[03:16] <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.
[03:17] <clever> IndyGunFreak: yeah to some it is
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> clever: lol

[03:20] <genii> Grungebunny: Yes, at the top of the page there is how to add that repo to your list. Then you can install it with any package manger you prefer
[03:20] <jrib> Aethelred: the flash wiki page links to instructions on installing nspluginwrapper

[03:21] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: let me understand...
[03:21] <SpEcKz> can anyone tell me the headquarters contact number of ubuntu??
[03:22] <caminomaster> I'm using audacity, but there's no source button in the mixer toolbar
[03:22] <ari_stress> morning
[03:22] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: you want headphone, so you put the switch off and it works fine?
[03:22] <caminomaster> how can i fix it? I cannot record from the pc
[03:22] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  yes
[03:22] <Scunizi> SpEcKz, try looking in http://www.ubuntu.com/ for it.
[03:22] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: what's the matter then?
[03:23] <SpEcKz> help anybody??
[03:23] <Grungebunny> genii ahh cool.. thankyou.. are there any more good repository sites I can add up while im at it?
[03:23] <CoasterMaster> SpEcKz: what are you looking for the number for?
[03:23] <genii> Grungebunny: Yes, the Seveas repos
[03:23] <Scunizi> SpEcKz, you want tech support or sales?
[03:23] <Reifster> In gnome, if I want to run a script by pressing a key combination, how would I go about that ? I can't find anything under 'Create launcher' or in "keyboard shortcuts"
[03:23] <SpEcKz> CoasterMaster : i need to talk to anyone in ubuntu regarding some business proposal
[03:23] <SpEcKz> :(
[03:23] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  its a pain to do that every time i want to plug in headphones
[03:23] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, can you record with the standard Sound Recorder application?
[03:23] <genii> Grungebunny: You'd need to google for the eact url entries
[03:24] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: how big is the button?
[03:24] <CoasterMaster> SpEcKz: like sales?
[03:24] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, let me see...
[03:24] <CoasterMaster> SpEcKz: http://www.canonical.com/support/webtolead
[03:24] <SpEcKz> thanks CoasterMaster
[03:24] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  er, its not a real button, its in the volume controll
[03:24] <steph_16th> LuckEkblad: buy another set of speaker, it's about 30$
[03:25] <LukeEkblad> lol
[03:25] <Scunizi> SpEcKz, CoasterMaster most of those links are email forms.. I couldn't find a direct line.
[03:25] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: this one seems crapy (sry)
[03:25] <CoasterMaster> There isn't a phone number that I know of, all that I can find is this: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/contactus
[03:25] <Flannel> SpEcKz: I don't believe there is a published phone number
[03:26] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  huh?
[03:26] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: i bought mine for 20$ and i plug the headphone without switching or running anything
[03:26] <SpEcKz> yeah that is the problem Flannel
[03:26] <Flannel> SpEcKz: Why is it a problem?
[03:27] <SpEcKz> coz i am not looking for support
[03:27] <CoasterMaster> SpEcKz: the first link is for sales as well
[03:27] <wastrel> http://www.canonical.com/partners
[03:27] <SpEcKz> i am looking for somebody in the top brass to deal with some of my business proposal
[03:27] <LukeEkblad> steph_16th:  its not the headphones, its the computer
[03:28] <steph_16th> LukeEkblad: sorry, I have no clue :P
[03:28] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, theorically, is recording, but it just don't play anything
[03:28] <UBUNOOBI1> /etc/modprobe.d/alsabase - I can see it but I cant write to it. Im using gui and dont know command

[03:29] <UBUNOOBI1> how can I write to the alsabase file?
[03:29] <Jamesinator> Can someone please link me to an article explaining why Ubuntu isn't susceptible to viruses?
[03:29] <wastrel> dear alsabase file,
[03:29] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, try adjusting the mixer settings: In Sound Recorder File -> Open Volume Control
[03:29] <iblicf> hi , i installed the abiword ,a lightweight .doc app, but just don't work with 'core dumped', any idea will be appretiated
[03:29] <wastrel> !virus | Jamesinator
[03:29] <ubotu> Jamesinator: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:29] <Jamesinator> wastrel: Thank you
[03:30] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, ok
[03:30] <UBUNOOBI1> wastrel: for a second there I thought dear was the commend! ha!
[03:30] <Stormx2> iblicf: What version of ubuntu are you running?
[03:30] <iblicf> Stormx2: gutsy
[03:30] <Stormx2> iblicf: Try #ubuntu+1 - It's probably a known bug.

[03:31] <takamarou> alright, can someone here help me?
[03:31] <CoasterMaster> !helpme | takamarou
[03:31] <ubotu> takamarou: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:31] <ari_stress> takamarou: what's the problem?
[03:31] <Scunizi> !ask | takamarou
[03:31] <takamarou> I'm trying to set up a virtual machine with ubuntu, but I dont know how.. im a newbie :D
[03:31] <caminomaster> takamarou, what's your problem?
[03:31] <Reifster> I can't belive this is not possible in gnome!! It's bloody 2007!
[03:32] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: are you setting up the VM in windows?
[03:32] <ari_stress> takamarou: that's simple, use VirtualBox
[03:32] <takamarou> yes\
[03:32] <iblicf> Flannel: i know ;) but i don't think it's the reason becoz the gutsy,,maybe locale..font'
[03:32] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: using VMWare? VirtualPC?
[03:32] <wastrel> what's not possible in gnome in 2007?
[03:32] <takamarou> ehh
[03:32] <takamarou> nothing, ive got absolutely nothing set up yet
[03:32] <takamarou> my brother told me to get a vitrual machine going for it, and thats as far as i got
[03:32] <CaptainFrisbee> takamarou, VirtualBox is very easy to use
[03:32] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: are you just curious about using Ubuntu and want to see what it's like?
[03:32] <ari_stress> takamarou: why sticks with windows? use ubuntu and run windows in vm :D
[03:32] <Reifster> wastrel: Run an arbitrary script when I press an arbitrary keyboard combination
[03:32] <Atlantiz> what is the name of the LAMP installation in the synaptic package manager?
[03:32] <cjae> is there a mp4 to avi converter
[03:32] <takamarou> well, ari, i wanna keep my windows until i can get my feel for ubuntu
[03:33] <cjae> ?
[03:33] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: I would suggest using Wubi to install Linux, <more info to follow>
[03:33] <Flannel> iblicf: Gutsy support is in #ubuntu+1, you'll have to ask there
[03:33] <ari_stress> Atlantiz: maybe xamp
[03:33] <exsequor> clever, says unassociated essid
[03:33] <Atlantiz> thanks ari
[03:33] <exsequor> clever, How do I set the wep key
[03:33] <cjae> or any multi-purpose app that can do it
[03:33] <warbler> cjae:ffmpeg
[03:33] <iblicf> Flannel: thank u ,:)
[03:33] <wastrel> Reifster:  ah well.  there's probably a way to do it
[03:33] <demonspork> takamarou, you can use the live disk as much as you want without installing ubuntu
[03:33] <wastrel> what about deskbar or something
[03:34] <Flannel> Atlantiz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[03:34] <Atlantiz> nope not XAMP
[03:34] <wastrel> alt-f2
[03:34] <Spaz1331> I'm looking for suggestions getting a wireless mouse to work... actually, it points, and buttons 1-3 work, but the scroll wheel isn't scrolling... any ideas appreciated
[03:34] <TheCougar> wastrel that link read to me basicly "because linux is not popular there are no viruses for it"
[03:34] <cjae> warbler, cli
[03:34] <Scunizi> cjae, I think mencoder will do that.
[03:34] <cjae> ?
[03:34] <Reifster> wastrel: The fact that it's not under "keyboard shortcuts" is nothing short but shamble
[03:34] <Atlantiz> thanks Flannel
[03:34] <takamarou> demon, i have no idea what im doing, i dont even have a disk, just doing what my brother instructed
[03:34] <clever> exsequor: iwconfig wlan0 key ACBD.........
[03:34] <wastrel> TheCougar:  i haven't read it
[03:34] <TheCougar> wastrel ah ok:)
[03:34] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: it will automatically set up your Windows XP/Vista machine to dual-boot (i.e. Windows and Ubuntu will live nicely together).  When you start your machine, you can chose Windows or Ubuntu.  If it turns out that you don't like it, you can always un install it.  As demospork says, the LiveCD is another option (put the Ubuntu CD in your computer and restart).  You can fool around as much as you like and when you resta
[03:34] <CoasterMaster> rt nothing permanent will be done, but keep in mind it will be much slower than an installed system
[03:34] <Evanlec> !pastebin
[03:34] <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)
[03:35] <n00blet> jrib: thanks for the help. that worked good.
[03:35] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: if you are interested in the Wubi method, you can check out http://wubi-installer.org/
[03:35] <takamarou> coaster :  I suggested a dual-boot to my bro, and he said virtual machine first.  Keep in mind that I have no idea what im doing, so im just running off his advice..... so should i DL virtualbox right now then?
[03:35] <jrib> n00blet: np, glad you got it to work
[03:35] <cjae> is there any reason why I k3b i got to make a data dvd is it so slow ripping
[03:35] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: you can try using a Virtual Machine, but they are often slow and will require a lot of RAM to run well
[03:36] <demonspork> takamarou, could you please use the Full name when replying to people?  (it highlights the message if you use our full name)
[03:36] <CoasterMaster> I have it set so it highlights on coaster too :)
[03:36] <ari_stress> CoasterMaster: wubi is very interesting!
[03:36] <demonspork> lol
[03:36] <Scunizi> takamarou, to type the full name and save keystrokes, type the first 4 or 5 characters and hit Tab
[03:36] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : So you suggest doing a dual-boot either way then?  Am i gonna have to back up my stuff, or does it do it for me.. or something
[03:36] <TheCougar> a virtual machine requireing a lot of ram is a very generalized statement. it all depends on the OS. and most OSes can be set to run in a low memory footprint way.
[03:36] <Ice__> Hi all, my problem is that I have a USB Dongle set up and the wifi radar is working and can see unprotected and protected networks but can connect to no networks and I don't believe this is a simple fix.  My pastebin is at http://pastebin.com/m6995b8f0
[03:36] <clever> CoasterMaster: my pc will beep on my name(and sms my cell if i dont answer within 60 sec:P)
[03:37] <TheCougar> takamarou: what are you trying to do? run linux on your computer for the first time or ?
[03:37] <CoasterMaster> clever: you really live up to your name :)
[03:37] <cjae> I think I have dma and all that enabled it seems to be when i write mp4 and avi to dvd but it not like it encoding or anything so why is it so slow
[03:37] <takamarou> TheCougar : yes
[03:37] <ari_stress> takamarou: the safest way to try ubuntu is to use it's LiveCD. it won't harm your windows in anyway
[03:37] <cjae> like .7xs
[03:37] <clever> takamarou: using a program like virtual ... you probly wont need to back up anything at all
[03:37] <TheCougar> takamarou: how much ram do you have on your computer and what OS is your host (meaning the one you have installed now)?

[03:37] <takamarou> ari_stress : but, if I'm gonna use the Live CD, that means I have to use it everytime.. I want to spend awhile messing around with it.. and I dont want to hassle with a CD everytime
[03:37] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: using Wubi is very safe if you plan on using it several times, but if you just want a quick look at what it is, a LiveCD would be best.  Either way you shouldn't have to back everything up (although it's never  a bad idea to keep backups)
[03:38] <UBUNOOBI1> do I need to be logged in as root to change the alsabase file in: /etc/modprobe.d/alsabase? and can I log in from the GUI?
[03:38] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, What's the problem?
[03:38] <clever> takamarou: i have yet to loose data resizing ntfs to make it dualboot but i think its still a bit risky having linux resize ntfs
[03:38] <Aethelred> I need advice on a better irc client.  Epic4 isn't playing nice in my terminal
[03:38] <takamarou> TheCougar : im running windows right now, gimme a sec to check my RAM
[03:38] <ari_stress> TheCougar: have you tried wubi?
[03:38] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: wubi does not resize your partitons, so there is little risk to losing data
[03:38] <clever> Aethelred: i perfer irssi for console irc'ing
[03:38] <demonspork> !root | UBUNOOBI1
[03:38] <ubotu> UBUNOOBI1: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[03:38] <zerobias> irssi
[03:38] <TheCougar> never used wubi before ari_stress
[03:38] <toyimp> yay its me again.. Well I got Compiz installed... And now I don't have the minimize/close buttons on any of my windows, and I only have one workspace.
[03:38] <nickrud> UBUNOOBI1, no, you can edit with gksu gedit, and don't log in as root :)
[03:38] <CoasterMaster> TheCougar: Wubi does not resize partitions
[03:38] <caminomaster> ah, you've told me i must open the volume ctrl from recorder
[03:39] <Scunizi> Ice__, looks like your router isn't providing an IP for some reason.. look at line 40 & 41
[03:39] <takamarou> TheCougar : I have 760 MB of RAM
[03:39] <chad_> Hi...I was wondering if someone could help me with k9copy.  When I try to launch it I get an error box that states "The application k9copy crash and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
[03:39] <ari_stress> sorry, i mean CoasterMaster :) have you tried wubi?
[03:39] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, and the recording input wasn't muted?
[03:39] <UBUNOOBI1> ok! sudo... thanks and thanks also demonspork
[03:39] <TheCougar> takamarou: what version of windows? xp i assume?
[03:39] <takamarou> TheCougar : yep
[03:39] <demonspork> toyimp, did you install compiz-fusion?
[03:39] <Ice__> Scunizi: it must be a conspiracy since 3 other computers are connected wirelessly to my router and all my neighbor's routers arent providing either
[03:39] <toyimp> yep
[03:39] <TheCougar> CoasterMaster ari_stress looks like a vm product
[03:39] <nickrud> UBUNOOBI1, sudo does not play well with gui apps; use gksudo or gksu instead
[03:39] <CoasterMaster> TheCougar: it's not, read Wubi FAQ
[03:39] <demonspork> toyimp, check out #compiz-fusion
[03:39] <CoasterMaster> ari_stress: yes, I used Wubi before completely switching to Ubuntu and my apartment-mate uses Wubi because he needs Linux for work but doesn't want to swtich
[03:39] <toyimp> Installed it how the website told me.
[03:39] <toyimp> ok
[03:40] <Scunizi> Ice__,  Have you tried setting the ip manually? along with DNS?
[03:40] <Stormx2> How do I clear out apt's cache of downloaded .debs?
[03:40] <UBUNOOBI1> thanks nickrud, will try that
[03:40] <Ice__> Scunizi: I'd need someone to tell me what to do
[03:40] <caminomaster> capt, no
[03:40] <TheCougar> takamarou: what i would do is lower xps footprint a little (meaning turning off the fancy gui stuff) and then install vmware. or this wubi (i have not fully checked out yet). but vmware would give you the "real experance" all the way through
[03:40] <Ice__> Scunizi: I'm in channel #ice if you want to come in and give me a hand
[03:40] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : OK, so ur saying use Wubi..  and don't bother backing everything up..  Is wubi fairly simple to set up, or am i gonna have to find a tutorial or something
[03:40] <TheCougar> takamarou: i would not dualboot.
[03:40] <Stormx2> Actually dw, just figured it out.
[03:40] <ari_stress> CoasterMaster: thanks for the link, wubi is certainly very interesting for new user  who wants to try ubuntu. i'll recommend it to my friends
[03:40] <Scunizi> Ice__, sorry it was just a suggestion.. I'm not that knowledgeable with wireless.  I'm hardwired.
[03:41] <Ice__> oh ok
[03:41] <Ice__> thanks anyway
[03:41] <Ice__> its a thought
[03:41] <takamarou> TheCougar : Why would u say to not dualboot?
[03:41] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: Wubi is very simple, just give it a username and password, a drive you want to install (and how much you wish to reserve for Linux) and that's it
[03:41] <caminomaster> I just cannot see the button in audacity... don't know why
[03:41] <Ice__> Ill play around with that idea for a while bbl
[03:41] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: the entire setup is one window (seen here: http://wubi-installer.org/screenshots.php)
[03:41] <TheCougar> ah i get how wubi works. i would go with vmware over that
[03:41] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : OK, one more question.. ur saying dualboot over VM because of the ram it will use? or is there another reason?
[03:42] <CoasterMaster> I just find VMs to be really annoyingly slow.  They take forever to start on my machine
[03:42] <TheCougar> takamarou: because with dualboot you actually have to leave the windows experance to get the linux experance. and changing over for the first time that can drive you to a frustration to decide not to use linux
[03:42] <jmak642> sup gang
[03:42] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: most of the downside with dual booting is partitioning and setting up the boot menus, something Wubi does all behind the scenes
[03:42] <ari_stress> CoasterMaster: is networking working with wubi?
[03:43] <Aethelred> Ahh. . irssi
[03:43] <TheCougar> wubi also won't change that feeling. the other issue is the resizing and so forth which wubi does take care of. lastly if you do it in a vm you can do whatever you want with partitions and affect the system in no way
[03:43] <jmak642> anyone know anything about building a san on ubuntu?
[03:43] <TheCougar> even network the two systems which will be possibly a big thing in your life
[03:43] <clever> CoasterMaster: ive read the entire grub info doc and have built my own kernels from source
[03:43] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, after adjusting the volume levels you still can't record with Sound Recorder?
[03:43] <clever> CoasterMaster: dualboot i can allmost do with my eyes closed:P
[03:43] <CoasterMaster> ari_stress: yes, everything worked just as a normal ubuntu install would, the only thing that didn't was suspending/hibernating from Ubuntu
[03:43] <takamarou> TheCougar : OK, so i think im gonna do the VM thing before i mess with dualboots.  Is there a certain program you suggest? perhaps a link?"
[03:43] <CoasterMaster> clever: I'll get there, some day..... :)
[03:44] <clever> CoasterMaster: www.linuxfromsratch.org helps
[03:44] <ari_stress> CoasterMaster: that's good news, because using VirtualBox we need to do additional steps to make full networking works
[03:44] <clever> CoasterMaster: scratch*
[03:44] <julioso> hey all, I just installed Ubuntu and can't seem to change my screen resolution to what it should be...
[03:44] <buntunub> takamarou | virtualbox!
[03:44] <clever> CoasterMaster: to install that distro you build EVERY package from source
[03:44] <Atlantiz> wow that install of LAMP WORKED LIKE 1 SECOND
[03:44] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, still the same
[03:44] <Atlantiz> this ubuntu is wild
[03:45] <Aethelred> Atlantiz:  what deb did you install?
[03:45] <julioso> I have a 1680x1050 widescreen monitor, and the largest it will go under "Screen resolution" is 1024
[03:45] <Atlantiz> in debian it took me a week
[03:45] <ari_stress> julioso: what resolution do you want?
[03:45] <CoasterMaster> clever: yeah, i've seen linux from scratch, but I don't like to mess with all that....I found slackware to be a complete pain in the you-know-where
[03:45] <Dumptruck> hello everyone
[03:45] <Atlantiz> sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[03:45] <julioso> ari_stress: 1680x1024
[03:45] <Atlantiz> that's all i used
[03:45] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, what kind of input are you using Microphone , line-in?
[03:45] <clever> CoasterMaster: i have 2 lfs systems(one is a laptop with 32mb ram)
[03:45] <ari_stress> Atlantiz: ubuntu is certainly wild, as wild as a wild cheerleaders :D
[03:45] <Dumptruck> is there a virtual cd drive in Ubuntu?
[03:45] <Atlantiz> it's amaazing
[03:45] <Dumptruck> similar to daemon tools?
[03:45] <takamarou> OK, guys, im doing the virtualbox thing for now.  Thanks a lot for all your help, I'll come back for more help if this dosent work :D
[03:45] <julioso> Dumptruck: get cdemu
[03:46] <CoasterMaster> Dumptruck, you can mount .iso files directly
[03:46] <caminomaster> I have a mic... but this time i want to record from amarok
[03:46] <Dumptruck> ah perfect
[03:46] <Aethelred> And what LAMP stack does it install?  Which lang/db ?
[03:46] <ari_stress> julioso: that's unusual, shouldn't it 1280 x 1024?
[03:46] <clever> DumberDrummer: no need to simulate the drive
[03:46] <Dumptruck> I need for cedega
[03:46] <FFForever> ropero123
[03:46] <FFForever> fudge
[03:46] <clever> DumberDrummer: mount /path/to/file.iso /media/cdrom -o loop
[03:46] <julioso> ari_stress: I have a 20.1" widescreen monitor, it's a little unusual, but not unheard of
[03:46] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, I have a mic, but this time i need to record from kaffeina sound
[03:46] <jmak642> julioso: you can edit the resolutions available in /etc/X11/xorg.conf  back it up first
[03:46] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: if you need a tutorial, there is one here (note this uses qemu instead of VirtualBox): http://homepage.sunrise.ch/mysunrise/ekeller00/EricKellerUbuntuPage.html
[03:47] <julioso> jmak642: thanks, I will try that
[03:47] <Atlantiz> not sure aethelred but tommorrow with more patience I'm going to check exactly what it installed
[03:47] <jmak642> julioso: make sure you add the resolution for all the color depth settings
[03:48] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, I see that in volume control you first have to enable the recording inputs. Open volume control in sound recorder -> Edit -> Preferences. Then the capturing inputs
[03:48] <Atlantiz> aethelred: Apache/2.2.3 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.1 Server
[03:49] <LeoDioxide> I've got no sound, both my sound cards are detected and volume fixed, but I can't seem to get any sound from oss or alsa
[03:49] <LeoDioxide> any ideas?
[03:49] <spheard> anyone tell me what DHT is on ktorrent?
[03:49] <CoasterMaster> spheard: Distributed Hash Table
[03:50] <CoasterMaster> spheard: trackerless torrents use them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table
[03:50] <spheard> CoasterMaster: what does that do then?
[03:50] <CaptainFrisbee> LeoDioxide, did you try first disabling one of the two sound cards?
[03:50] <LeoDioxide> CaptainFrisbee: in the bios?
[03:50] <spheard> thx
[03:50] <CaptainFrisbee> LeoDioxide, Yes
[03:50] <steph_16th> LeoDioxide: "/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" as root or sudo
[03:51] <LeoDioxide> ok, lemme go try
[03:51] <steph_16th> or reset
[03:52] <Atlantiz> night guys this OS Rocks!
[03:52] <steph_16th> or stop one only
[03:52] <tux_fl> firestarter users?  help
[03:53] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee... still the same
[03:53] <File13> i made a fat32 partition that i mounted at /storage but it doesnt show on my ubuntu desktop how do i get it to show
[03:53] <ari_stress> tux_fl: what's the problem?
[03:53] <tux_fl> firestarter gui policy greyed out
[03:53] <jmak642> anyone ever try to build a san?
[03:53] <tux_fl> i know its something stupid
[03:53] <jmak642> i am hot to build an iscsi san for my data
[03:54] <caminomaster> I'll tell you, CaptainFrisbee : HEre in volume ctrl i found in file>change device 2 cards: alsa and oss
[03:54] <caminomaster> alsa appears with cs4236B (my soundcard) and oss
[03:54] <beavis> file13: to show on desktop has to be mounted in /media, /media/storage for example
[03:54] <steph_16th> File13: mkdir windows in /mnt
[03:54] <ari_stress> File13: you should mount it in /media/storate
[03:55] <File13> so go back into gpart and just change it to /media/storage>
[03:55] <File13> ?
[03:55] <steph_16th> File13: then type "ln -s /mnt/windows /home/you/Desktop"
[03:55] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, yes that's normal
[03:55] <LeoDioxide> CaptainFrisbee: that worked, though I can't figure out why >.<
[03:55] <File13> ok i just got like 3 different way to do it there
[03:55] <File13> lol
[03:56] <beavis> two ways
[03:56] <beavis> mount in /media/storage
[03:57] <beavis> do "sudo mkdir /media/storage"
[03:57] <Thurin1> If a monitor, in Windows can obtain a refresh rate of 85Hz why then does Ubuntu allow no higher of a rate than 60? - Even after performing a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and choosing my rates etc, I was only able to obtain a tiny 72hz at a pitiful resolution of 800x600. - I have already disabled DDC, same results. --- Is it possible that some monitors cannot reach the same refresh rates in Ubuntu as is possible under the Windows sy
[03:57] <File13> if i mount it in media/storage will the windows partition read it to
[03:57] <File13> the partition is already make...its just mounted incorrectly
[03:57] <Thurin1> File, You cannot read EXT3 in Windows..
[03:57] <beavis> if you are mounting automatically using fstab edit fstab to point /storage at /media/storage instead
[03:57] <LeoDioxide> Thurin1: depends on your driver
[03:57] <Thurin1> Well you can.. but you need a driver
[03:57] <CaptainFrisbee> Thurin1, are you using a nvidia card?
[03:57] <File13> im not trying to read ext3 in windows....
[03:57] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, i know, but the fact is: oss shows only 5 ctrls, but alsa in preferences lets me see about 10 or 12 channels
[03:57] <LeoDioxide> File13: use explore2fs
[03:58] <nickrud> Thurin1, most likely x is not getting the right ddc info; try explicitly defining the refresh rates in xorg.conf
[03:58] <pike__> Thurin1: also you set correct horz and vert rates?
[03:58] <File13> im trying to make a fat32 partition readable in both windows and ubuntu as a shareable partiion
[03:58] <Thurin1> Captain, No, I am using a Radeon card, a VE/7000 to be correct.
[03:58] <File13> >_<
[03:58] <Thurin1> Pike, Yes.
[03:58] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, it's the same on my PC
[03:58] <Thurin1> Nick, As I said in my post - I have disabled DDC - I also have looked up the proper values in regards to H/V and tripled checked them, alas 60hz :(
[03:58] <steph_16th> File13: mount it, then link it to your desktop if it doesn't automatically
[03:59] <File13> k ill mount it to /media/storage after i install these updates
[03:59] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, in dapper, I've seen around 4 channels under "capture"
[03:59] <nickrud> Thurin1, what is X saying it sees (in /var/log/Xorg.0.conf)
[03:59] <vbabiy-Laptop> Hello has any one been able to get the ipod video t work with amarok
[03:59] <caminomaster> now I see only 1, CaptainFrisbee
[04:00] <nickrud> lol
[04:00] <Thurin1> nickrud, It is telling me something about the BIOS... (EE)
[04:00] <takamarou> hey, ive got a question about virtualbox, if anyone knows much about it.  I'm  making my new virtual disk right now, and it wants to use my C:\ drive.  Is there a way to make it use my second hard drive?
[04:00] <nickrud> Thurin1, put it up on a pastebin, I'll take a look
[04:00] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[04:00] <Thurin1> But at the moment I am not in Linux so I am passing this to you through my memory, I could not stand 60hz....
[04:00] <nickrud> Thurin1, understandable :)
[04:00] <Thurin1> ;)
[04:00] <k3td> yo
[04:00] <Thurin1> yo
[04:01] <ari_stress> takamarou: can't you just change it?
[04:01] <Thurin1> heh
[04:01] <steph_16th> yo
[04:01] <k3td> i keep hearing the ubuntu start noise how do i fix it
[04:01] <takamarou> ari_stress : im not seeing the option anywhere?
[04:01] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, you should see Volume, Line-in, Microphone, CD inputs using OSS
[04:01] <Thurin1> k3td, Start noise? ...
[04:01] <spheard> k3td:stop ubuntu?
[04:01] <Thurin1> k3td, The 'start up sound' ?
[04:01] <k3td> the drums
[04:01] <Thurin1> Or.. a PC beep
[04:01] <wastrel> k3td:  it keeps repeating nonstop?
[04:01] <k3td> yes
[04:01] <Thurin1> k3td, Strange..
[04:01] <n00blet> Will a webcam work on ubuntu, more specifically a logitech webcam.
[04:01] <wastrel> that's no good
[04:02] <ari_stress> takamarou: hmm.. i'm using virtualbox in ubuntu, so i dont have c:\, but, maybe you can just change the drive letter manually?
[04:02] <xjkx>  I cant make thunderbird read hotmail :< i even installed hotwayd+webmail-extension but it says "you must to pay to access webdav" or something WTF
[04:02] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, you can't add additional inputs using edit-preferences ?
[04:02] <wastrel> k3td:  try turning it off in system > preferences > sounds
[04:02] <k3td> it wont stfu and it says that my sound is muted
[04:02] <Thurin1> xjkx, You can access Hotmail through POP?- I thought they stopped that, or made it a pay service...
[04:02] <steph_16th> n00blet: search for the appropriate driver on goole + a webcam app
[04:02] <takamarou> ari_stress there is no where that i see anything about a hard drive..  i choose my size, and my type of drive, and then it takes me automatically to view stuff before i confirm it..  I never come to a place where I can change the drive
[04:03] <n00blet> Ah, so it isn't one of those easy things to do ;[ heh
[04:03] <xjkx> thunder|: me myself cant. but thunderbird extentions say i do, if I download webmail extension. But didnt work
[04:03] <xjkx> :<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
[04:03] <codecaine> anybody know a software that I can use my webcam as a camrecorder?
[04:03] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, I've clicked on "new" at the recorder, and it closed telling me that "my sound capture settings were incorrect"
[04:03] <takamarou> ari_stress nevermind, i think i got it
[04:03] <Hillsburrito> is there something similar to cdemu with a gui goodness - I like fisher-price sort of things
[04:03] <caminomaster> then i opened system>preferences>sound
[04:03] <ari_stress> takamarou: that is certainly a negative feature :(
[04:03] <n00blet> I know camtasia caps vids but idk if it is usable with linux
[04:03] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, strange I get that too ...
[04:04] <Thurin1> xjkx, I doubt you are able to access Hotmail by any mail client, Outlook included - unless you pay.
[04:04] <ari_stress> takamarou: yes? how? :)
[04:04] <Ice_> I want to cry.
[04:04] <takamarou> ari_stress I had my virtualbox folder in my C:\ drive for some reason, so I just moved everything to the second one
[04:04] <Thurin1> So it's not a problem on your end - perhaps the extension was made when this was still possible, but as far as I know Hotmail changed policy and now you must pay for this 'service'
[04:04] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, open syst>preferences>sound
[04:04] <k3td> hmm still not working
[04:04] <steph_16th> n00blet: http://qce-ga.sourceforge.net/
[04:05] <CaptainFrisbee> caminomaster, ok
[04:05] <xjkx> thunder|: they are gheiz
[04:05] <Ice_> Is there anyone in this channel paying attention that knows ALOT about wifi and ubuntu and can help me for about a half hour
[04:05] <n00blet> steph_16th: thanks
[04:05] <Thurin1> xjkx, Why do you keep calling me 'Thunder' ?
[04:05] <Thurin1> :P
[04:05] <xjkx> Thurin1: http://webmail.mozdev.org/installation.html
[04:05] <steph_16th> n00blet: http://www.linux-drivers.org/usb_webcams.html
[04:06] <Thurin1> :D
[04:06] <caminomaster> CaptainFrisbee, the really problem with me is that I've never understood wtf is alsa, oss, esd and it's differences :/
[04:06] <ari_stress> takamarou: good luck with your endeavor then. enjoy ubuntu :D
[04:06] <k3td> how do i know what sound card i have
[04:06] <takamarou> poo, it wont let me DL ubuntu.. too many users... this OS is waay to popular :D
[04:06] <k3td> ?
[04:06] <bulmer> how do I replace this sequence of unprintable chars  \342\200\231 to its equivalent '   ?
[04:06] <bulmer> in sed or vim
[04:06] <niko_> Is it possible (easily) to be able to "suspend" my desktop rather than hibernate?
[04:06] <illu45> Hello, could someone help me with a quick question about getting a custom script to run on startup?
[04:06] <Ice_> Vorian:
[04:06] <steph_16th> k3td: terminal: "hal-device-manager &"
[04:06] <nickrud> k3td, lspci (if it's onboard or in a pci slot)
[04:06] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: are you familiar with torrents?
[04:07] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : i got it
[04:07] <steph_16th> illu45: yep
[04:07] <takamarou> but im out for the night, gonna let it DL over night, thanks for all the help
[04:07] <Ice_> Vorian:  you here?
[04:07] <nickrud> illu45, gnome or system startup?
[04:07] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: no problem and good luck ;)
[04:07] <illu45> nickrud, er, not using gnome, so system startup
[04:07] <disinterested_> what was gutsy released today or some thing?
[04:08] <nickrud> illu45, what is it? and does it need to be shutdown when the machine goes down?
[04:08] <CoasterMaster> disinterested_ : no, just the name for the followup to gustsy
[04:08] <CoasterMaster> !harty
[04:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about harty - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:08] <illu45> nickrud, preferably, yes. Its a mount script. I've got the script written up, but I'm not sure how to get it to run on start
[04:08] <Ice_> Is there anyone in this channel paying attention that knows ALOT about wifi and ubuntu and can help me for about a half hour
[04:08] <illu45> bulmer, update-rc.d?
[04:09] <computerman> Is there a channel for newbies?
[04:09] <n00blet> Lol, right here
[04:09] <CoasterMaster> computerman: you're in it :)
[04:09] <bulmer> illu45: man  update-rc.d
[04:09] <computerman> Kewl
[04:09] <illu45> Currently, I have the script in /etc/init.d, and that seems to work fine, but there's a slight problem.
[04:09] <disinterested_> computerman; this is the one
[04:09] <nickrud> illu45, you need to write a script that has a start and stop option then; take a look at /etc/init.d/screen for a simple example
[04:09] <n00blet> Well, i'd assume none of us are complete nubs being that we installed linux...but I might be mistaken
[04:10] <Hillsburrito>  is there something similar to cdemu with a gui goodness - I like fisher-price sort of things
[04:10] <n00blet> I just got bored with windoze and wanted to learn something new
[04:10] <Bakefy> is there a way to make text bolder with wine programs?
[04:10] <computerman> Just set up my Unbuntu box the other day, so far works great!
[04:10] <CoasterMaster> n00blet: I've used this place for a quick bit of support during the install on the livecd :)
[04:10] <Q^aeria> Who here can help with editing xorg.conf?  I need to confirm something before I save what I got...
[04:11] <n00blet> CoasterMaster: I actually found the install to be confusing the first time I did it with redhat...lol
[04:11] <computerman> How do I access this box via Windoz Vista?
[04:11] <Ice_> Is there anyone in this channel paying attention that knows ALOT about wifi and ubuntu and can help me for about a half hour
[04:11] <File13> do i have to use the gnome partition editor on the live disk to change the mount point or can i do it in the ubuntu install
[04:11] <nickrud> Q^aeria, put it up on a pastebin, several people can help
[04:11] <CoasterMaster> !samba | computerman
[04:11] <klepto> wow this is really wierd no mp3 sound in rhythmbox/exaile/listen music player
[04:11] <illu45> nickrud, ah, ok, I'll take a look at it. My problem is, though, that the script uses a sudo command, which makes it prompt me for a password in the boot prompt. Is there any way to give it the password in the script itself?
[04:11] <MarcN> klepto: because of patent reasons.
[04:11] <n00blet> I know you can access windows through linux but didn't think it was the other way around
[04:11] <ubotu> computerman: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:11] <computerman> Supposedly its installed and set up. I can "See" the other computers on my Lan
[04:11] <nickrud> illu45, if it's running from init.d and is properly linked, you won't need to sudo
[04:11] <klepto> MarcN: i've installed the gstreamer codecs
[04:11] <MarcN> klepto: you can add mp3 support yourself however.
[04:12] <illu45> nickrud, ah, ok, so I can just remove the sudo?
[04:12] <nickrud> illu45, yes
[04:12] <beavis> File13: What point are you at? You've installed ubuntu then created a partition afterwards, is it being auto mounted on startup allready?
[04:12] <CoasterMaster> computerman: here is a tutorial
[04:12] <CoasterMaster> computerman: http://www.go2linux.org/how-to-install-samba-on-linux-with-swat
[04:12] <illu45> nickrud, ah, ok. I'll try that out. Thanks for the advice :)
[04:12] <MarcN> klepto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3
[04:13] <nickrud> illu45, when you have the script properly mounting/unmounting (use sudo to call the script during testing) do sudo update-rc.d <scriptname> defaults to link it properly for startup
[04:13] <klepto> MarcN: I've already added the mp3 codecs
[04:13] <File13> ok i installed the dual boot windows and ubuntu, i created a fat32 formatted partition mounted at /storage when i originally did the install but it doesnt show on ubuntu, so i want it to show in both windows and ubuntu
[04:13] <klepto> and tested gstreamer and it plays a test tune
[04:13] <Q^aeria> I am going through xorg.conf using jed.  I am doing this with instructions from an ubuntuforums.org post, and I'm not too clear if I have to add something to xorg.conf with the hash mark or not.
[04:13] <Ice_> Is there anyone in this channel paying attention that knows ALOT about wifi and ubuntu and can help me for about a half hour
[04:13] <illu45> nickrud, ah, ok. Will do.
[04:13] <beavis> if you open a home folder, then move up levels until you are / can you see the storage directory
[04:14] <MarcN> Ice_: just ask here, someone may answer
[04:14] <k3td> how do you configure a sound card

[04:16] <computerman> Any of you use Dreamweaver CS3?
[04:16] <beavis> right, in a terminal type sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[04:16] <CoasterMaster> !anyone | Jel
[04:16] <ubotu> Jel: 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?
[04:16] <the_padawan> wow that is a polite bot
[04:16] <CoasterMaster> !feed
[04:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about feed - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:16] <nickrud> enix, try sudo aptitude reinstall gdm

[04:19] <beavis> File13: "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" from a terminal
[04:19] <ckin2001> @file13 - try gksudo instead of sudo
[04:19] <File13> k i changed it to /media/storage
[04:19] <computerman> I'm trying to set up DW CS3 to FTP files to a site on my server (this Unbuntu box).
[04:19] <beavis> File13: save, quit, in same terminal "sudo mkdir /media/storage"
[04:20] <pinpoint> anyone know a way i can download src files from a cvs source?
[04:20] <eric_> Was looking for some printer setup help.  Is this the right place?
[04:20] <CoasterMaster> !printing | eric_
[04:20] <File13> ok
[04:20] <ubotu> eric_: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[04:20] <beavis> File13: then in terminal "sudo mount -a"
[04:20] <nickrud> eric_, lease don't say its a lexmark ;)
[04:20] <CoasterMaster> haha, and that too!
[04:20] <File13> media/storage does not exist
[04:21] <beavis>  File13: save, quit, in same terminal "sudo mkdir /media/storage"
[04:21] <eric_> Know about cups.  When I setup my network printer (http:// etc...) and print to the printer, it just says printing but nothing happens.  Any clue?
[04:21] <computerman> That include shared printer on Lan?
[04:21] <joules> ... hey guysssss anyone knows how to get icons back on open office... there is just text now
[04:21] <eric_> nickrud - samsung
[04:21] <ckin2001> @eric - right print queue?
[04:21] <nickrud> eric_, I've never had to set up a network printer, so ...
[04:21] <Ice_> Hello again all, my problem is at http://pastebin.com/m43b08461 and I will appreciate your help. This does not seem like something that will be an easy fix.  I could really use someone experienced with wifi and linux for this.
[04:22] <eric_> ckin2001 - dont understand your question.
[04:22] <File13> ok i did the mount and nothing happened
[04:22] <joules> :'(
[04:22] <ckin2001> eric - external print server? built in?
[04:22] <ckin2001> shared printer?
[04:23] <Ice_> actually
[04:23] <Ice_> let me fix my grammar
[04:23] <beavis> File13: does other media show on your desktop such as your windows partition
[04:23] <Okayasu> anyone have a moment to help me verify if I have something working with ubuntu and iptables?
[04:23] <Ice_> thats a pain in the ass to read
[04:23] <eric_> Printer is attached via usb to my router
[04:23] <File13> yes
[04:23] <File13> sda1
[04:23] <ckin2001> eek

[04:23] <nickrud> lol\
[04:23] <adrian_> HELP: anyone have an idea of how to unpack a .zix file?
[04:23] <ckin2001> what model?
[04:24] <stefano> Hello, i was wondering if anyone could tell me if the linux-386 kernel that is in the feisty fawn repositories optimized for a 686 processor?
[04:24] <cosmodad> Ice_: first of all, you don't seem to have iwconfig available.
[04:24] <stefano> I mean, Synaptic tells that linux-686 is obsolete.
[04:24] <nickrud> stefano, you'll prefer the -generic or -lowlatency
[04:24] <CoasterMaster> stefano: i don't believe so
[04:24] <cosmodad> Ice_: did you install wireless-tools?
[04:24] <etale> anyone using macaulay2 in feisty?
[04:24] <Ice_> yes
[04:24] <Ice_> hold on I will fix my grammar and add iwconfig
[04:24] <beavis> File13: you can read files correctly from the drive by looking in /media/storage now i take it
[04:24] <Ice_> and post again
[04:24] <stefano> Why generic?
[04:24] <adrian_> HELP: anyone have an idea of how to unpack a .zix file?
[04:24] <nickrud> stefano, thru some kind of magic, those will identify your processor and adapt to it
[04:24] <CoasterMaster> !repeat | adrian_
[04:24] <ubotu> adrian_: 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
[04:25] <stefano> Oh
[04:25] <File13> i have no idea what i just did
[04:25] <adrian_> ok
[04:25] <File13> ugh
[04:25] <CoasterMaster> stefano: nickrud: it's really all voodoo
[04:25] <ckin2001> :D file13
[04:25] <eric_> Router is a us robotics
[04:25] <File13> i cant follow whats going on so im sure i just screwed something up
[04:25] <File13> but hey
[04:25] <File13> what else is new
[04:25] <stefano> hehe, so there is no performance drop? I thought that if i had it compiled to my specific architecture i could get more juice out of the processor.
[04:26] <nickrud> CoasterMaster, I stay away from rituals, so I don't think I'll ever try to understand :)
[04:26] <CoasterMaster> adrian_: this might help http://www.winzix.com/index.php?go=expert
[04:26] <cosmodad> adrenaline: this will give you a starter: http://filext.com/file-extension/zix
[04:26] <Aethelred> adrian: http://andrewu.co.uk/webtech/archive/?file_extension_zix_2
[04:26] <beavis> File13: wots happened?
[04:26] <Okayasu> or is anyone familiar with the whole Comcast/bittorrent deal, and the "possible fix" of dropping RST packets?
[04:26] <File13> and all of a sudden my wlan1 on reboot decides its no longer there
[04:26] <cosmodad> adrian_: : this will give you a starter: http://filext.com/file-extension/zix
[04:26] <CoasterMaster> Okayasu: i am on comcast and yes it sucks, but there is no fix yet
[04:26] <File13> i dont know dude
[04:26] <Okayasu> ahh ok
[04:26] <File13> nothing, and thats whats bothering me
[04:26] <Okayasu> so the whole dropping RST packets doesn't actually work?
[04:26] <julian__> is it possible to access a wireless card in virtual guest
[04:26] <cosmodad> adrian_: apparently, it's some evilish ad-aware packer. Get your warez 'n porn from a decent site ;)
[04:27] <adrian_> thanks will try to make it work
[04:27] <oranye> yuli
[04:27] <CoasterMaster> Okayasu: just have to tough it out, and hopefully there will be fixes in the next version of torrent clients
[04:27] <ckin2001> eric - us robotics site says it is an IPP printer
[04:27] <eric_> ckin2001 - That sounds right.
[04:27] <CoasterMaster> Okayasu: technically it works, but it also sends the RST packets to your partner, so they'd need to know to drop them too
[04:27] <Okayasu> mind if I pm you, CoasterMaster?
[04:28] <CoasterMaster> sure, go ahead
[04:28] <File13> i changed the mount point and now i dunno what the hell is up
[04:28] <Javid> is there a way to rig sudo/gksudo to not need a pass? like including it in the command somehow?
[04:28] <etale> anyone using macaulay2 in feisty? If not, can someone at least tell me how to install a .deb package... there's a repository on the website for it, but im getting a public key error, and they don't mention keys anywhere on the site.
[04:28] <stefano> Is there any commercial game, other than id soft's, that runs on linux natively? I am trying to find a few games, but they are either vintage or really stupid. If anyone could point me towards a real 3d game, half life 2 or anything that looks good, and is native to linux.
[04:28] <CoasterMaster> !games | stefano
[04:28] <ubotu> stefano: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[04:28] <adrian_> cosmodad I it for http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3784432/The.Bourne.Ultimatum.R5.XviD-LionsGate and I would rather admit porn
[04:28] <k3td> !help gestreamer
[04:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help gestreamer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:28] <File13> ubuntu can be so gay
[04:28] <ckin2001> eric - does the router setup page have anything helpful?
[04:29] <nickrud> etale, if they don't have a key, you can still install the deb by saying yes when it asks. Up to you.
[04:29] <k3td> !k3td | gstreamer
[04:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about k3td - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:29] <nomin> stefano: try nexuiz.  It installs and runs right away and it's free.
[04:29] <cosmodad> adrian_: get it somewhere else. Like going to the movies. Just a suggestion. :)
[04:29] <eric_> ckin2001 - It says the web address.  Also, I can print from windows.
[04:29] <k3td> can some one help me set gstreamer up?
[04:29] <etale> nickrud but when i go to install, it says "0 B have to be downloaded"
[04:29] <ckin2001> eric - whats the web address?
[04:30] <etale> and when I apply I get errors
[04:30] <adrian_> ok
[04:30] <warbler> stefano: try here - http://cubeengine.com/
[04:30] <etale> E: I wasn't able to locate a file for the Macaulay2 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch)
[04:30] <etale> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[04:30] <adrian_> maybe download an other file
[04:30] <nickrud> etale, what's the url?
[04:30] <eric_> ckin2001 - http://192.168.2.1:1631/printers/My_Printer
[04:30] <stefano> Any racing games?

[04:32] <eric_> ckin2001 - Let me try.
[04:32] <wastrel> Thmaceisback:  don't use chmod -R
[04:32] <`davo> uh..exactly how do I go about updating GTK?
[04:32] <cosmodad> Thmaceisback: you're screwed...
[04:32] <k3td> can some one help me set gstreamer up?
[04:32] <wastrel> lesson learned!  backup data & reinstall
[04:33] <Mgk> \o/
[04:33] <nickrud> etale, hm. It mentions that you might have an architecture problem; looking at something
[04:34] <cosmodad> hmm
[04:34] <cosmodad> !repeat
[04:34] <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
[04:34] <cosmodad> isn't this supposed to mean "don't repeat"?
[04:34] <k3td> how do i install xine
[04:34] <Tama00> i got an issue, whenever my computer is first turned on and i log in it uses 100% of my cpu for almost 30 seconds
[04:34] <eric_> ckin2001 - Same thing as before.  queue says printing but nothing happens
[04:34] <stefano> Guys, thanks for the game links. Can't wait any longer for Gutsy.
[04:34] <cosmodad> Tama00: sounds fine to me.
[04:34] <ckin2001> eric - from their page - http://www.usr.com/support/5461/5461-ug/linux_printer.html
[04:34] <Tama00> cosmodad, why is that fine
[04:34] <ckin2001> i cant tell if its helpful or not
[04:34] <cosmodad> Tama00: surely there's a bunch of apps that need to be loaded at startup.
[04:35] <wastrel> cosmodad:  it means don't be obnoxious.  you can repeat after a while but don't spam your question 5 times
[04:35] <cosmodad> Tama00: your system will try to do so as fast as possible.
[04:35] <etale> nickrud ya, thanks... this is giving me a headache all day :(
[04:35] <Tama00> cosmodad, it logs in and loads up completely
[04:35] <cosmodad> wastrel: that's why I say that factoid isn't correct.
[04:35] <Javid> is there a way to rig sudo/gksudo to not need a pass? like including it in the command somehow?
[04:35] <Tama00> cosmodad, but the "system" not the applications just sits on 100% cpu
[04:35] <cosmodad> Javid: you don't want that.
[04:36] <Falstius> Javid: you can do it easily for individual commands.
[04:36] <Javid> ok
[04:36] <eric_> ckin2001 - Thanks for the page.  Will try it now.
[04:36] <ckin2001> good luck
[04:36] <cosmodad> Tama00: erm, you know that apps run by the help of the CPU?
[04:36] <Javid> yeah, for individual stuff, not for everything
[04:36] <warbler> stefano; try here - http://www.linuxsoft.cz/en/sw_list.php?id_kategory=26
[04:36] <Javid> and yes I do want that :p
[04:36] <genii> Javid: You can edit the file /etc/sudoers for that. But not recommended
[04:36] <wastrel> hrm, gnome panel crashed?
[04:36] <cosmodad> Tama00: the CPU goes 100% and loads all your apps. Once it's done doing that, it goes back to normal level.
[04:36] <Falstius> Javid: you just need to use visudo to edit the config file and add a line.  What commands do you want to make passwordless?
[04:36] <Javid> Wireshark
[04:36] <rockets> Anybody just come back from NYLUG?
[04:37] <MoLE_> #lugradio
[04:37] <Javid> since it has to run as root, period, I hate having to do the password every time
[04:37] <Falstius> Javid: a packet sniffing tool?
[04:37] <Javid> look I didn't design the thing, it sits there like a rock if it isn't root
[04:37] <Flannel> Javid: use setuid
[04:38] <Falstius> Flannel: it is safer to add it to sudoers.
[04:38] <cosmodad> Flannel: are you nuts?
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:38] <ckin2001> rofl
[04:38] <Javid> where's the sudoers config file then?
[04:38] <ckin2001> visudo /etc/sudoers
[04:38] <k3td> can some one help me with gstreamer
[04:38] <cosmodad> Javid: you access it through "sudo visudo"
[04:38] <Flannel> Javid: `sudo visudo` is all you need to know
[04:38] <Falstius> Javid: use sudo visudo          <no arguements unlike what ckin said>
[04:38] <ckin2001> oops
[04:38] <ckin2001> sry
[04:39] <Javid> ok, thanks

[04:39] <k3td> wastrel come channel hbc
[04:39] <Flannel> Falstius: what do you set in sudoers to make certain things not require the password?
[04:39] <wastrel> no
[04:39] <cosmodad> Johnny_: burning in general, use k3b.
[04:39] <k3td> Aww cmon i need help
[04:40] <Falstius> Flannel: I'm looking up the exact syntax again ;)  One second.
[04:40] <wastrel> k3td:  is your user in the audio group?  i had this problem earlier because my user wasn't in the proper gropus
[04:40] <Flannel> Oh. Falstius, found it, nevermind.
[04:40] <Johnny_> do i d.load k3b or is it installed in feisty?
[04:40] <k3td> idk
[04:40] <k3td> idk how to tell
[04:40] <wastrel> groups username
[04:40] <CoasterMaster> !info k3b
[04:40] <ubotu> k3b: A sophisticated KDE CD burning application. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 4912 kB, installed size 9404 kB
[04:40] <wastrel> or just groups  if you're logged in as the user
[04:40] <cosmodad> Johnny_: just install k3b
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> hm, iv'e never had a user not added to the audio group.
[04:40] <toyimp> What a quick way of bringing up the terminal?
[04:40] <z0rz> I want to login to X Windows from my school ubuntu machine, and work on my home computer.. but I don't want to use a simple vnc client... Where do I start? (I'd like to do it over ssh if possible0
[04:40] <CoasterMaster> Johnny_: sudo apt-get install k3b
[04:41] <Johnny_> oh but my is gnome interface is that alright?
[04:41] <CoasterMaster> it should still work
[04:41] <wastrel> z0rz:  ssh -X  and then just start the gui program you want
[04:41] <illu45> Just wanted to say thanks again to nickrud, the script is working perfectly now :)
[04:41] <Johnny_> alright ty
[04:41] <nickrud> etale, if you download the .9.95, you can dpkg -i it, it installs and runs on my machine (don't know how to use it)
[04:41] <cosmodad> toyimp: I assigned "<windows key>+s" to terminal
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> Johnny_: it will stil work, but it wil install a bunch of kde dependences.. if you want to stick with Gnome apps, install Gnomebaker.. sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[04:41] <nickrud> illu45, yw
[04:41] <k3td> wastrel What?
[04:41] <CoasterMaster> Johnny_: if you want to add k3b support, use sudo apt-get install libk3b2-mp3
[04:41] <CoasterMaster> Johnny_: *MP3 support
[04:42] <wastrel> k3td:  use the groups command to check what groups your user is in.  type   groups   on the command line
[04:42] <etale> nickrud... ttttooooo good! ok I'll try that
[04:42] <Falstius> Javid: add the line "%admin ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wireshark" to the end.  you can replace ALL with your hostname for some additional security.
[04:42] <etale> so it's just dpkg -i ...tar.gz ? does it matter where?
[04:42] <Javid> that is exactly what I seek, thanks
[04:42] <nickrud> etale, dpkg -i <something>.deb, never a tar.gz :)
[04:43] <P_Kable> Hi, if I purge the recent document through the "places" menu. Is there a way to check these document again using some logfile ? If yes what logfile please
[04:43] <cosmodad> Javid: replace %admin by your username for even more security.
[04:43] <z0rz> wastrel: Wow! That's pretty cool
[04:43] <nickrud> etale, with sudo of course
[04:43] <etale> nickrud oops, ya my mistake heh. should I do that in / or does it not matter?
[04:43] <etale> like where to save the deb to?
[04:43] <Falstius> cosmodad: %admin is reasonable, if someone else is already in admin they can just run it with sudo and their password.
[04:43] <arigold> trying to upgrade from 6.10.1 to 7.04. My Distribution Upgrade to 7.04 seems to be stuck on Fetching 59 - get an Error During Update: "Failed to fetch...timed out" errors... anyone have some reliable mirrors I can use?
[04:43] <nickrud> etale, anywhere you want to keep that deb (I keep them in ~/archive/software/debs
[04:44] <Javid> woo, it worked
[04:44] <Javid> thanks
[04:44] <cosmodad> Falstius: it's added security in a paranoic fashion :)
[04:44] <z0rz> wastrel: What if I wanted to have like a preloaded session (with let's say firefox and pidgin and a few other things open)
[04:44] <KevinOman> when I telnet my server and do ehlo localhost it shows in one of the lines "250-AUTH NTLM DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN" I thought it was only supposed to say plain login can anyone figure this out?
[04:44] <toyimp> thanks cosmodad
[04:44] <wastrel> z0rz:  dunno :]   what's that new thing everyone likes anymore, freenx?
[04:45] <oranye> surabaya
[04:45] <arigold> trying givre.cabspace.com and flomertens.keo.in - bot don't workd...
[04:45] <Falstius> cosmodad: it is pointless and adds nothing.  Just because you think it adds security and you're paranoid doesn't mean it does :)
[04:45] <nickrud> KevinOman, just ways to secure the connection, those are encrypted passwords of one flavor or another. You can use any
[04:45] <cosmodad> KevinOman: side-note, you really wanna telnet into a machine instead of SSH?
[04:46] <eric_> ckin2001 - If your still there, still stuck
[04:46] <wastrel> cosmodad:  ssh doesn't work for smtp
[04:46] <cosmodad> Falstius: you are right.
[04:46] <cosmodad> wastrel: ah ok
[04:46] <Ice_> Ok I am back and here is my pastebin with my question http://pastebin.com/m32014a85
[04:46] <etale> nickrud ! it works !!! thanks so much =)
[04:46] <arooni__> folks i need to run this efax program... its an exe..... how can i do this (i have ubuntu)
[04:46] <wastrel> KevinOman:  i guess you have smtp auth stuff
[04:46] <nickrud> etale, yw
[04:47] <cosmodad> wastrel: Ice_ it's still "command not found" after you sudo iwconfig...
[04:47] <KevinOman> nickrud, thanks.. im following a tutorial and it doesn't show all that, just PLAIN LOGIN, not really sure if its going to effect anything
[04:47] <cosmodad> arooni__: exe as in windows executable?
[04:47] <Ice_> thats what it said before cosmos, sudo iwconfig is worthless now because I had to uninstall my drivers to boot up the computer and take out the dongle too
[04:48] <arooni__> cosmodad, sure
[04:48] <nickrud> KevinOman, no, those are a listing of accepted ways to log in, you can use any one of them
[04:48] <wastrel> yeah
[04:48] <wastrel> extra functionality provided
[04:48] <KevinOman> nickrud: oh I see.. thanks
[04:48] <cosmodad> arooni__: you can run win32 executables only in wine or a virtual machine like VMware.
[04:48] <Ice_> I know people have gotten this to work with dapper - Im using feisty - should I just install dapper?
[04:48] <arooni__> cosmodad, how do i get wine
[04:48] <cosmodad> arooni__: consider a native linux alternative
[04:49] <KevinOman> thanks to you too wastrel
[04:49] <cosmodad> arooni__: install the "wine" package
[04:49] <dinkle> can anyone help me figure out why my sessions start up programs wont save?
[04:49] <Ice_> cosmodad, would you suggest installing dapper?
[04:49] <cosmodad> Ice_: so you don't have a driver right now?
[04:49] <cosmodad> Ice_: no
[04:49] <Ice_> not in there
[04:49] <dinkle> or how to manually add start up programs?
[04:49] <nickrud> arooni__, efax is available in ubuntu ...
[04:49] <cosmodad> Ice_: especially not if you have something bleeding-edge-like
[04:50] <Johnny_> also is there a torrent app that doesn't suck? i've tried all of them made for linux but no good, im currently wining my utorrent since i really like it
[04:50] <Flannel> !startup | dinkle
[04:50] <ubotu> dinkle: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[04:50] <cosmodad> Ice_: why did you remove it? you need to have a driver to get this working
[04:50] <z0rz> Anyone know how to set up a remote x session?
[04:50] <Ice_> I still have it, it just isnt installed
[04:50] <Ice_> my computer freezes while its in and the dongle is in
[04:50] <cosmodad> Johnny_: I use rtorrent. It's a console tool, however.
[04:50] <Aethelred> What's the downside to Automatix  ?
[04:50] <cosmodad> Ice_: sounds like a driver problem.
[04:50] <Flannel> Aethelred: it breaks your system
[04:50] <cosmodad> Aethelred: it can screw your system
[04:51] <Ice_> Johnny, I find Ktorrent to be alot like Utorrent and quite nice
[04:51] <Johnny_> lol, im not good with console involved tools, maybe something with a powerful gui?
[04:51] <cosmodad> z0rz: you can use some VNC server/client, or use X directly.
[04:51] <nickrud> arooni__, and efax-gtk is a front end you can use for it. (wish it used evolution-data-server as a backend)
[04:51] <Ice_> go get ktorrent you will like it
[04:51] <Aethelred> ok then. Any details on how, or why, or how to avoid lossage?
[04:51] <Johnny_> yeah, but i have gnome sadly
[04:51] <z0rz> cosmodad: I'd like to use X directly .. how can I do that?
[04:51] <Ice_> cosmodad, my driver works with dapper, why should I not go get dapper
[04:51] <cosmodad> Ice_: oh I see.
[04:51] <dinkle> flannel, thanks. i guess i need to update sessions somehow because my screen is not the same as the one it shows
[04:52] <cosmodad> Ice_: it's strange that the driver freezes your system in Feisty but doesn't do so in Dapper, but ok
[04:52] <cosmodad> Ice_: what driver is it?
[04:52] <Ice_> well Im lying kinda
[04:52] <cosmodad> Ice_: name
[04:52] <Ice_> athfmwdl and neta5agu
[04:52] <cosmodad> z0rz: I'd need to look that up, been a while since I did it
[04:52] <Ice_> but Im also using linux mint which to my knowledge is just feisty with pre-installed apps and prettyness
[04:52] <Ice_> no one can help me at linux mint though
[04:52] <Dumptruck> ahh - my sound is all gone... could installing cedega killed my sound?  everything was working perfect
[04:53] <z0rz> right .. well could you give me a good search term to use.. I can't seem to get the right set
[04:53] <cosmodad> Ice_: gosh, never heard those names.
[04:53] <cosmodad> z0rz: it's called XDMCP
[04:53] <Ice_> www.linuxmint.com
[04:53] <Ice_> it's quite nice except for this one driver
[04:53] <Flannel> !automatix | Aethelred
[04:53] <cosmodad> z0rz: mind though it's pretty old, inefficient and security-lacking
[04:53] <ubotu> Aethelred: 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)
[04:54] <Ice_> comes with an ndiswrapper gui that doesnt work for me too
[04:54] <Flannel> Aethelred: the best wya to avoid breakage: don't use it.
[04:54] <Dumptruck> how do I remove software that I intalled with a debian packet manager?
[04:54] <Flannel> z0rz: "'X forwarding' ssh" would probably do it
[04:55] <Aethelred> thanks
[04:55] <z0rz> cosmodad: Yeah.. I planned on doing it over SSH .. I did something like ssh -x mybox.z0rz.com and it was very fast and was practically exactly what I wanted .. except like a session of windows to come up..
[04:55] <Flannel> Dumptruck: use package management (whichever package manager you prefer) to remove it
[04:55] <cosmodad> z0rz: or yeah Flannel is right. If you don't need a full-featured remote desktop, use ssh forwarding (-X) instead.
[04:55] <cosmodad> z0rz: so what solution do you require?
[04:55] <jj_> What is the best way to troubleshoot an X not being able to start out-of-the-box?
[04:55] <z0rz> cosmodad: Well I know how to do ssh forwarding for single x windows .. but a full-featured remote desktop would be pretty need..
[04:56] <cosmodad> jj_: X logs in /var/log/.
[04:56] <nickrud> jj_, look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:56] <z0rz> You said it's inefficient though.. I was hoping it would be as fast as ssh -X
[04:56] <Dumptruck> add/remove does not see it
[04:56] <Falstius> z0rz: it is ... ssh -X is very inefficient.
[04:56] <Flannel> Dumptruck: Use a real package manager (add/remove is dumbed down) like Synaptic
[04:56] <jj_> cosmodad: what am I looking for in particular...?
[04:56] <nickrud> Dumptruck, use apt-get, or synaptic
[04:56] <jj_> nickrud: what am I looking for in particular...?
[04:56] <z0rz> Falstius: !! What do you mean?
[04:56] <cosmodad> z0rz: well it uses a lot of resources. If you have the bandwidth, you might be fine.
[04:57] <nickrud> jj_, towards the end, there'll be something about why it couldn't start (hopefully)
[04:57] <z0rz> cosmodad: Ah!  Maybe that's why.. I haven't used it over the public internet... just my local network
[04:57] <cosmodad> jj_: /var/log/Xorg.*
[04:57] <z0rz> cosmodad: So vnc is probably more efficient?
[04:57] <cosmodad> z0rz: yeah that makes a huge difference
[04:57] <Flannel> z0rz: if you're doing it over your LAN, use XDMCP
[04:57] <cosmodad> z0rz: I'd say so
[04:57] <Falstius> z0rz: it really depends on the program.  It is possible to write a program that works well with ssh -X, but most aren't.
[04:57] <z0rz> cosmodad: Well poo
[04:57] <Flannel> z0rz: is linux installed on both machines?
[04:57] <Ice_> cosmodad, do you know where I can find a dapper download?
[04:57] <z0rz> Flannel: yes
[04:57] <z0rz> well.. sometimes ;) (Dual booting)
[04:57] <cosmodad> Ice_: where did you get the driver from? was it in the kernel or in some kind of package?
[04:58] <Ice_> I got it from dlink's website
[04:58] <z0rz> Depends on the day at school.. but I'm going to push for linux as the primary desktop[
[04:58] <Ice_> That's the one that the dapper people used
[04:58] <Flannel> z0rz: Right, on the machine yuo want to login to, go to login window setup, and enable the XDMCP stuff.  Then on your other one, at GDM (the login screen), Go down to the bottom left corner, and use XDMCP to connect (up at the top, Id on't know the exact text, maybe 'remote login' if not xdmcp)
[04:58] <Dumptruck> uggh... still no sound - any suggestions for troubleshooting?
[04:58] <Ice_> cosmodad, its the ones specifically made for this dongle
[04:59] <z0rz> Flannel: Right.. but isn't XDMCP pretty insecure over a public network?
[04:59] <jj_> z0rz: X windows is a very good remote desktop like deal -- assuming you have well written X apps...This is not garunteed though. VNC can  be vary good and does not depend on the program being programmed "correctly" but will tend to use more bandwidth
[04:59] <cosmodad> z0rz, Flannel: I think you can enable XDMCP via the GUI, can't you?
[04:59] <Flannel> cosmodad: You can.  Login Screen Setup
[04:59] <Ice_> cosmodad, I got it from dlink's website
[04:59] <mattgyver83> Hey room!  When running distros of ubuntu on older machines (p2) is there anything that one can do to speed it up at all, excluding upgrading the physical hardware?
[04:59] <cosmodad> Flannel: I mean on the server
[04:59] <Flannel> z0rz: It is.  It also usually wont work (UDP stuff doesn't traverse most routers)
[05:00] <Dumptruck> I don't even get the bongo sound when I am in the login screen
[05:00] <Flannel> cosmodad: yes, that's "Login screen setup"
[05:00] <cosmodad> Ice_: ok, and you're saying that when you reuse it on Feisty, it's freezing?
[05:00] <cosmodad> Flannel: nice.
[05:00] <z0rz> Flannel .. so is there a way to do XDMCP over SSH?
[05:00] <Falstius> can't you tunnel xdmcp through ssh?
[05:00] <cosmodad> you can
[05:00] <Ice_> cosmodad, I never used dapper, I found a forums post where 3 people got it to work on dapper, I use linux mint which is a division of feisty
[05:00] <Flannel> z0rz: Not that I'm aware of.  X forwarding is probably your best bet
[05:01] <z0rz> I wish there was a screen for X forwarding :D
[05:01] <jj_> z0rz: I've also heard that VNC via SSH can get better compression and performace...I haven't personally tried though
[05:01] <z0rz> jj_: I've always got weird color issues when tunneling VNC over SSH
[05:01] <Falstius> jj_: I have't compared performance, but it does get a security layer which is worth it.
[05:01] <nickrud> mattgyver83, use a really lightweight window manager, like fluxbox or openbox or blackbox
[05:01] <Dumptruck> I don't know where to begin other than the obvious when troubleshooting sound on Ubuntu
[05:02] <mattgyver83> Okay, thanks nick
[05:02] <nickrud> mattgyver83, and be ruthless about trimming apps that startup on bootup
[05:02] <Falstius> z0rz: it is probably downgrading the number of colors to make it more effecient.  You can change that.
[05:02] <cosmodad> z0rz: that's what VNC is!
[05:02] <z0rz> cosmodad: Haha.. nah it only does that when I use ssh ;)
[05:02] <z0rz> changes gray to purple :D
[05:02] <cosmodad> z0rz: sorry I meant "screen for X"
[05:03] <Dumptruck> Speakers on and connected - yes
[05:03] <z0rz> z0rz: Oh.. MEH!
[05:03] <Dumptruck> VOlumes up yes
[05:03] <z0rz> haha I just talked ot myself...
[05:03] <z0rz> cosmodad: Oh.. MEH!
[05:03] <cosmodad> jj_: hard to tell if you can't tell for sure that this linux mint is really comparable to feisty
[05:03] <Dumptruck> default sound card correct yes
[05:03] <wastrel> bye now
[05:03] <Ice_> cosmodad, I never used dapper, I found a forums post where 3 people got it to work on dapper, I use linux mint which is a division of feisty
[05:03] <Dumptruck> is there someplace else I am missing?
[05:03] <mattgyver83> nickrud, i am actually using xubuntu.  If i do that, will the GTK+ libraries which are installed still allow me to use Gnome/KDE applications through those window managers, or do they only work on either Gnome or KDE, any idea?
[05:03] <cosmodad> jj_: what you could do is watch the syslog while loading the driver and see if anything gets through
[05:04] <c01100011> recommendations for video chat program to talk with a windows user ? i am trying to use skype inside vmware but lose too much image quality
[05:04] <sdouble> I am using the open source drivers for my ATI card, but sometimes it randomly loses 3d functionality and I have to reinstall to get it working again.  Then about 2 weeks later, I have to do it all again.  Anyone else ever have this happen to them or know something I could check on?
[05:04] <z0rz> cosmodad: I'd like to type ssh -X box.z0rz.com and then when it logins type screen -r .. and all my gui windows pop up.. then when I Ctrl-a-d it'd close all the gui windows.. but keep them open in the background on the server...
[05:04] <cosmodad> c01100011: ekiga can do that.
[05:04] <cosmodad> z0rz: again, if you use VNC, you can close the VNC session and resume it later from possibly another machine.
[05:04] <c01100011> cosmodad what client would the iwndows user use ?
[05:04] <nickrud> mattgyver83, no, you can run those gnome apps as well
[05:05] <nickrud> mattgyver83, and kde, if you must :)
[05:05] <cosmodad> c01100011: oh sorry, didn't catch there was a windows user involved
[05:05] <c01100011> yes, i have linux trying to talk to a windows user
[05:05] <mattgyver83> well im stupid because i just realized that im using xfce as well which would have answered my question, thanks!
[05:05] <z0rz> Right.. but then the physical desktop of the server is effected.. I'd like to login in remotely to a box .. work on a vnc like session.. without effecting the active user
[05:05] <annihilus> does anyone know where the plugins dir for gedit resides
[05:05] <cosmodad> z0rz: you don't necessarily do that!
[05:05] <mattgyver83> i need to remember to think before i speak
[05:06] <Ice_> cosmodad, I found a script which might save my butt but I need you to help me install it
[05:06] <cosmodad> z0rz: you can run VNC unaffecting any running user
[05:06] <Ice_> or someone here
[05:06] <Ice_> can anyone here
[05:06] <Ice_> help me install a script
[05:06] <z0rz> cosmodad: Link please :D
[05:06] <cosmodad> z0rz: hold on
[05:06] <Falstius> cosmodad: z0rz: unless the host computer has dual monitors in which case you can screw up their panels (grumbles)
[05:06] <rgriley> Ubuntu is stalling at boot and leaving my system in root shell (!?!?!?!) when I turn off 2 of my 3 external USB drives. I have specified them as "noauto" in the fstab. What is going wrong?
[05:06] <cosmodad> Ice_: what is it
[05:07] <mattgyver83> Since you guys are on the topic of VNC, is it possible to make a connection through display:0 without the use of x11vnc?
[05:07] <z0rz> Falstius: I would be using dual monitors if it wasn't for the stupid 4096 pixel frame buffer ATI cards have...
[05:07] <Ice_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=528238&highlight=DWL-G132
[05:07] <cosmodad> Falstius, z0rz: why. VNC works like this: you start a VNC server under your remote user's name and then you your local user's VNC viewer session to access it. No other users involved
[05:08] <mattgyver83> With x11 i can make a connection, however it does not ask me for a password and just assumes the connection without it.  Without it I can only create new window manager sessions.
[05:08] <cosmodad> z0rz: damn those links I have are in German.
[05:08] <rgriley> Anyone?
[05:09] <Falstius> cosmodad: it is funiness in the gnome settings stuff.  When I start a vnc session (running gnome) on this machine, it forces all of the panels to the primary monitor.  If I run twm or some such in the session it wouldn't be an issue.
[05:09] <cosmodad> Falstius: ok
[05:09] <z0rz> cosmodad: I guess my main problem is with vnc is the viewers all seem to suck
[05:09] <Ice_> can anyone hear help me make a pre-written script
[05:09] <cosmodad> z0rz: I admit, they don't seem highly sophisticated.
[05:10] <deathguppie> hey.. has anyone here used wine to install a game???
[05:10] <cosmodad> z0rz: maybe I'm wrong though. There might be some other remote protocols out there as well
[05:10] <z0rz> cosmodad: They don't resize the desktops properly and when I'm at school in the lab computers.. their 1024x768 res doesn't cut it when I'm running at 16x12
[05:10] <z0rz> cosmodad: And autoscaling looks liek shiz
[05:10] <Falstius> z0rz: for some reason the ones on ubuntu are especially bad.  I've had better luck with RHEL (I can't tell you the exact versions at the moment)
[05:10] <cosmodad> z0rz: supplying the correct geometry to vnc viewer might fix this
[05:10] <deathguppie> I can't seem to unmount a cdrom while the game is installing under wine..
[05:11] <z0rz> remote desktop connection on windows, I have to say is pretty amazing
[05:11] <stefano> Does having ssh-daemon on make my linux pc-server more vulnerable to attacks?
[05:11] <cosmodad> Ice_: so what's that script doing on your machine?
[05:11] <saeed> jjjsa
[05:11] <cosmodad> stefano: unless you're behind a firewall or NAT-router, yes.
[05:12] <Ice_> cosmodad, it's reconfiguring my adapter every time I start up
[05:12] <z0rz> I just love the fact that it brings, sound, printers, drives, and com ports locally.. and also the performance seems pretty amazing.. Full screen support and it automatically changes your resolution.  You can also login without effecting the active user with a dll replacement.. oh and it can be tunneled over SSH so security isn't a problem
[05:12] <Ice_> I just dont know how to make it
[05:12] <Ice_> I'm in channel #ice if you want to help me there
[05:12] <stefano> cosmodad, how could i tell if i am behind a NAT-router?
[05:12] <stefano> Isn't iptables enough?
[05:13] <cosmodad> stefano: well do you use a router?
[05:13] <demonspork> Ice_, try #bash
[05:13] <Ice_> #bash
[05:13] <cosmodad> stefano: iptables is a firewall.
[05:13] <z0rz> stefano: Do you have a Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, or other branded router between you and your modem?
[05:13] <Falstius> stefano: if your IP address is 10.0.xxxx or 192.168.xxx you are behind a NAT firewall
[05:14] <stefano> Well, my modem and the hub is all i have.
[05:14] <stefano> Ok.
[05:14] <stefano> Then i am behind a NAT firewall.
[05:14] <z0rz> stefano: Personally, I wouldn't be worrying about SSH being hacked into.. If you have a good password for your user, then you should have other things to worry about, then if "Secure Shell" is secure or not.
[05:15] <z0rz> stefano: Just make sure you run the ubuntu updates to keep it patched
[05:15] <cosmodad> stefano: right now, I can connect to your IP on SSH port
[05:15] <z0rz> "patched" .. heh
[05:15] <stefano> I have been told that the passwd file could be "decoded" in a couple of hours.
[05:15] <z0rz> stefano: ... How are they going to get your passwd file?
[05:15] <cosmodad> stefano: only if passwords are picked in  dumb fashion
[05:15] <stefano> cosmodad, What does that mean?
[05:16] <cosmodad> stefano: it means you're either not behind a firewall/NAT or you are forwarding SSH port to your machine
[05:16] <cosmodad> stefano: if you meant the password note: it means picking too simple passwords
[05:16] <sdouble> I am using the open source drivers for my ATI card, but sometimes it randomly loses 3d functionality and I have to reinstall to get it working again.  Then about 2 weeks later, I have to do it all again.  Anyone else ever have this happen to them or know something I could check on?
[05:16] <Falstius> z0rz: through skype ;)  but passwords aren't kept in passwd.
[05:16] <z0rz> cosmodad: You could connect to my ssh server too if you knew my ip...  I doubt that many people use some sort of port knocking to open up port 22
[05:17] <cosmodad> z0rz: I was just pointing out that he doesn't have a NAT/firewall protect him from connecting
[05:17] <z0rz> stefano: You're best bet is to change the port SSH operates on.. to something between 1024 and.. uhh 65000 or something like that
[05:17] <z0rz> cosmodad: Well I do.. but I have a hole poked for it.. so I can get in anyways
[05:17] <z0rz> I do too*
[05:17] <c01100011> anyone familiar with using ekiga to comunicate with netmeeting ?
[05:18] <cosmodad> stefano: an even better bet is you pick a hard password for your users, restrict ssh to only the users you need and possibly disable password login
[05:18] <terryofastoria> stefano, you want a good secure password, and I suggest setting up ssh-server to listen on a nonstandard port. Like 45760 or whatever.
[05:18] <stefano> Ok, i could change port, but isn't getting a ssh prompt enough for a hacker?
[05:18] <cosmodad> z0rz: he didn't even know whether he had a NAT, so he most likely didn't forward either
[05:18] <terryofastoria> If he scans ports and finds your box at 22 he will try.
[05:18] <cosmodad> stefano: unless a hacker knows your password, you're right safe.
[05:18] <stefano> lol,
[05:18] <stefano> I forwarded everything to server.
[05:18] <stefano> All my three machines have ssh on.
[05:19] <z0rz> stefano: They won't get an ssh prompt unless they try to login in on every port possible until they find that port you have open.. I guess if they are really dedicated to get into your machine they would be able to port scan your whole computer... but most hackers port scan 1 port on a bunch of computers
[05:19] <cosmodad> stefano: the whole world uses SSH. Just make sure you know how to harden it.
[05:19] <stefano> cosmodad, does the prompt say stefano server?
[05:19] <the_hatter> Yo, anybody familiar with using Rhythm Box?
[05:19] <cosmodad> stefano: it doesn't say anything
[05:19] <stefano> Is there a way to have a different password only for ssh?
[05:20] <cosmodad> stefano: you don't get that info prior to logging in
[05:20] <multiverse> Hello all!
[05:20] <cosmodad> stefano: not the easy way I think...
[05:20] <stefano> oh :(
[05:20] <cosmodad> stefano: it's better to make a user only for external logins
[05:20] <cosmodad> stefano: and give that user a really tough password
[05:20] <multiverse> I just bought a new Lenovo Thinkpad R61 with 4 GB RAM.
[05:20] <stefano> oh ok, i see.
[05:21] <cosmodad> stefano: you should take a look at /etc/ssh/sshd_config, especially AllowUser(s?)
[05:21] <`LePGeL[BoY] > help? how can i unmount a hardrive in terminal?
[05:21] <stefano> How could i set ssh to run only for that user or login info for that user?

[05:21] <k3td> geek squad told me to get xp or better so i said linux :D
[05:22] <cosmodad> stefano: you can do an awful lot with ssh.

[05:22] <GamingX> hello guys, I noticed something surprising, I am the only user on my system who uses ubuntu, and when I logged in and went to access my yahoo mail, I saw that its asking me for to confirm a password for a user I dont know, Any Ideas?
[05:23] <stefano> Anyone know if Gutsy is at a state where i could preform an "distro-upgrade" from feisty?

[05:24] <multiverse> It appears that 7.04 and 7.10 (Tribe 5) doesn't have the 64 bit driver for my nVIDIA card.  I'd like to visually check that out, look on the install media, but I don't know how.
[05:24] <z0rz> cosmodad: I'll have to read it...
[05:24] <Flannel> stefano: You can.  #ubuntu+1 could tell you about the stability of feisty itself though
[05:24] <z0rz> Is there a way to get my scroll lock button to light up when I have scroll lock on?
[05:24] <cosmodad> z0rz: only looked over it, but there're some solutions presented for VNC-likish
[05:24] <stefano> Flannel, thanks.
[05:25] <multiverse> I want to do as much as I can do inform people on how to deal with this, so I'd like to learn how to solve my own problems.
[05:25] <Icetea> is there anyone using virtual ubuntu ?
[05:25] <mjancaitis> multiverse: what's the question again?
[05:26] <multiverse>  It appears that 7.04 and 7.10 (Tribe 5) doesn't have the 64 bit driver for my nVIDIA card.  I'd like to visually check that out, look on the install media, but I don't know how.
[05:26] <Flannel> multiverse: In the directories on the mirrors of the CD, you'll find .list files, that's all the files on the CD.  For desktop CDs, the manifest files will give you all the debs that are compiled into the image.
[05:26] <GamingX> Icetea: You have any Ideas?
[05:27] <Flannel> multiverse: for instance: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.manifest http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.list

[05:27] <Flannel> multiverse: The former has all the stuff inside the liveCD image, the latter has any other packages on the CD
[05:27] <stefano> Is there a way to have a thin-client with ubuntu? I was wondering if i could set up a pc, that from the moment it is turned on it is ready to use, in seconds.
[05:27] <Icetea> GamingX: how can I ?
[05:27] <Flannel> multiverse: for alternat CD, there are only list files, because there is no image with packages in it

[05:32] <Fivetwentysix> Hi, I've decided to install Linux (Ubuntu), however I don't know if my specs are supported. My specs are Asus P5B Motherboard, Intel Q6600 cpu, 4gb 667mhz ram, Asus Geforce 8800gts
[05:32] <mjancaitis> Fivetwentysix: the 8800 might give you problems
[05:32] <TinFury> hey with Ubuntu if I want to tell what version of something I'm running how do I do it?
[05:33] <Fivetwentysix> What's wrong with my graphic card?
[05:33] <TinFury> I usually use rpm -qa program |grep beryl for eg.
[05:33] <TinFury> But I use RedHat usually.
[05:33] <mjancaitis> Fivetwentysix: too new

[05:34] <nickrud> dddd, of course, what's not permitted is denied
[05:34] <multiverse> Thanks for the information Flannel.  I do have one more question:  you gave me the information for releases  http://releases.ubuntu.com but I am working on 7.10 Tribe 5.  Where do I go for that?  TIA

[05:35] <nickrud> Icetea, it's seeing your keystrokes, not showing them. And use your regular password
[05:35] <{NmE}> Icetea, it does not show the letters you type in the password

[05:36] <jj_> Is there not possibility to run Ubuntu if I can't get the live CD to start an X Server? My graphics card is only an ATI laptop gfx card.
[05:36] <rebootjac> ok, I will hold on
[05:37] <mjancaitis> jj_ : no, you can still run ubuntu
[05:37] <mjancaitis> jj_: easiest way is to use the alternate-install CD
[05:37] <ddonky> jj_ - you may have to change the video settings
[05:37] <mjancaitis> jj_: then deal with your video drivers
[05:38] <jj_> mjancaitis: ddonky: thanks, I'll give that a try...where does the alternate cd hide, I hvaen't seen it before...
[05:38] <XMF> is there a another network manager besides gnome network manager and rutilt?
[05:38] <TinFury> Can anyone tell me how to check the version of a program?
[05:38] <mjancaitis> jj_: go to the ubuntu site, and where you go to download it, check the box underneath the download button that says "alternate CD
[05:38] <mjancaitis> "
[05:38] <nickrud> TinFury, usually <programname> --version works
[05:39] <TinFury> Thanks. Is there anything like rpm -q

Does anyone know if that means I'll lose info on unallocated (none), or if I lose all the info on the entire hard drive?
[05:40] <Falstius> TinFury: you can also use apt-cache show <packagename>

[05:42] <rebootjac> hmm.. seems to be enabled. I have Ubutnu Studio if that makes any difference
[05:42] <Fivetwentysix> doesn't 64 bit have better support?
[05:42] <nickrud> Megaqwerty, you can use mplayer -ao aa I think
[05:42] <mjancaitis> Zemus: I thnk you'll lose everything if you try and change the label
[05:42] <Falstius> Zemus: it sounds like it means the whole drive (not just the unallocated space)

[05:42] <rebootjac> nickrud: hmm.. seems to be enabled. I have Ubutnu Studio if that makes any difference
[05:42] <mjancaitis> Rowan: apt-get will know what version you have and what's compatible when you try and get new apps
[05:43] <nickrud> Fivetwentysix, no, for example flash won't work easily in 64bit.
[05:43] <Megaqwerty> nickrud: and I think it would be -vo, no?
[05:43] <raziEL> nickrud, are you sure ?
[05:43] <multiverse> My feeling is that you could have a configured Firefox on the thumbdrive.
[05:43] <Rowan> yes i know. i use apt-get, but is there some sort of thing i need to apt-get? i don't see any apps to dual-monitor
[05:43] <Fivetwentysix> oh and will 32 bit ubuntu support 4 gb of ram?
[05:43] <nickrud> Megaqwerty, you know more than I about that, I see (that's why I added I think)
[05:44] <nickrud> Fivetwentysix, I think (again) it's 3.2 gb

[05:45] <c01100011> multiverse, no video support in linux
[05:45] <Fivetwentysix> but there are workarounds to that right?
[05:45] <toyimp> exsequor, disable Desktop Effects from System > Preferences > Desktop Effects
[05:45] <Falstius> exsequor: there is a note about that in the ubuntu wiki
[05:45] <Megaqwerty> Anyone? ^^
[05:46] <nickrud> Fivetwentysix, yes; if you're even moderately comfortable with a command line it's doable
[05:46] <Fivetwentysix> Sounds good then.

[05:48] <rebootjac> nickrud: It doesn't really give me a error.. do you know where the log would be kept for botched installs? The message I get when I try to do a partial upgrade says, "Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop' It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a bug."
[05:48] <GreenOlive> yeah i am
[05:48] <rebootjac> nickrud: btw, thanks for your help!
[05:48] <multiverse> z0rz:  what you want to do is independent of Ubuntu.  I suggest an exhaustive search at a search engine for "firefox usb" or some such combination of keywords.
[05:48] <nickrud> rebootjac, try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:49] <mjancaitis> z0rz: might look into swiftfox too, it's a smaller package and might be better suited; there's always Tor, too
[05:49] <Omen_Bearer> yst.org
[05:49] <k3td> hmm can some one help me out with some simple html
[05:49] <k3td> ?
[05:49] <exsequor> toyimp, desktop effects were never enabled so I enabled them and disabled them again and now beryl won't start at all
[05:49] <k3td> i just need to align an img but its not working right
[05:50] <lordmemo5> hey can somebody help me installing cmpiz funsion in ubuntu
[05:50] <nickrud> mjancaitis, I think I know what you're seeing with your background windows: start one again, but make sure that you don't have a currently opened app focused
[05:50] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: Is this what you're looking for? http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
[05:50] <toyimp> exsequor, ask in #compiz-fusion
[05:50] <BlendArt> I accidentally added a wrong word to gedit.  How would I remove it?
[05:50] <houmala> How much memory does a stock standard installation on fiesty 7.04 support??
[05:50] <lordmemo5> hey can somebody help me installing cmpiz funsion in ubuntu
[05:50] <toyimp> exsequor, that's what fixed it for me was disabling that
[05:50] <rebootjac> nickrud: Also get this when I close out the first message, "Could not calculate the upgrade A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport."
[05:50] <exsequor> toyimp, I'm not using compiz-fusion
[05:51] <nickrud> rebootjac, then if the apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work, I'd do what the messages say
[05:51] <z0rz> mjancaitis: And I could put that on a thumb drive and run the whole thing from the thumb drive?
[05:51] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: my link will give you what you want
[05:52] <nickrud> BlendArt, your question is a bit vague
[05:52] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Exactly... Do you have a link?
[05:52] <Born_In_Xixax> hi all - i would like to remotely monitor my kids ubuntu pc's - need some way to automatically take screenshots of any active X session every X minutes (i can grab the files remotely) - any ideas or other suggestions?
[05:52] <Megaqwerty>  http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
[05:52] <rebootjac> nickrud: ok I will try.. thanks for your kind support!
[05:52] <mjancaitis> z0rz: Tor? Yes, it's designed to be a completely untraceable browser you can bring with you
[05:52] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: that's the link
[05:52] <BlendArt> nickrud: ?
[05:52] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: I don't have a Windows box to run it on....
[05:52] <nickrud> rebootjac, support is when it works; all I gave was the moral kind :)
[05:52] <lordmemo5> please help me install comfusion
[05:52] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: oh, didn't notice that...
[05:52] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: try wine?
[05:52] <nickrud> BlendArt, added a word to gedit?
[05:52] <lordmemo5> i reallly need it
[05:52] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Haha, no thanks
[05:52] <BlendArt> nickrud: Yes
[05:52] <Rowan> hey houmala 256mb RAM is required
[05:53] <coded1> i just installed ubuntu for my first time! all went well.  I have 2 seperate video cards though, one agp which it picked up np and a pci, which hardware manager picks up but i dont know how to use it in X, any ideas?
[05:53] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: I'll look for a Linux port.
[05:53] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Btw, I already have that exact version of ff on my thumb drive
[05:53] <nickrud> BlendArt, I don't know what that is. Added a word to a file you edited with gedit? or what?
[05:53] <pjman> I'd like to try deluge-torrent. I don't see it in Feisty's repositories yet it's in edgy and gutsy... anyone know why? Am I doing something wrong? http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=deluge&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
[05:53] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: so...what are you looking for?
[05:53] <^_^> ai.................
[05:53] <lordmemo5> please help me install compiz fusion
[05:53] <houmala> how much memory does a standard install of 7.04 support??
[05:53] <Rowan> hey houmala 256mb RAM is required
[05:54] <raf256> hmmmmmm
[05:54] <Flannel> 256 isn't required.  But I think he was asking for top end
[05:54] <multiverse> Megaqwerty:  sweet link
[05:54] <Born_In_Xixax> hi houmala, using the alternate install cd, i have several pc's running fine on 128mb
[05:54] <raf256>  #ubuntu-ops You're banned from that channel  what the hell?
[05:54] <houmala> i have 4 GB does 7.04 support it ??
[05:54] <Born_In_Xixax> the live cd won't work with that much though
[05:54] <Kasuko> Hello
[05:54] <thiebaude> the live cd requires 256
[05:54] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: That link you gave me... is exactly what I'm looking for.. except for Ubuntu
[05:54] <Fivetwentysix> houmala i think only 64 bit version
[05:54] <Fivetwentysix> does
[05:54] <left1> does fiesty desktop effects remove the menu bar for anyone else?
[05:54] <nickrud> pjman, probably the package wasn't in good shape when feisty was frozen; if you look around on bugs.launchpad.net you'll probably find out why.
[05:54] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: oh, then I'll look for a linux version
[05:55] <Megaqwerty> (Of the installer...I hope)
[05:55] <Welshy> :/ my ubuntu install went shitz
[05:55] <Rowan> oh hey look at that
[05:55] <Rowan> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon/Tribe5?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=displayconfig1.jpg
[05:55] <houmala> what is top end for memory in 7.04??
[05:55] <Rowan> gutsy will have what i'm looking for xD
[05:55] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Ideally I'd like to put my thumb drive into any linux machine and have my version of firefox installed with my extensions and bookmarks.. w/o effecting the host os
[05:55] <GamingX> @\\
[05:55] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: oh, so you won't be using it on windows pcs?
[05:55] <lordmemo5> how can compiz fusion can be installed??... any body???
[05:55] <coded1> has anyone heard of being able to use 2 video cards at the same time on linux other than sli?
[05:55] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Nope
[05:55] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: that's a hell of a lot more feasible!

[05:56] <orbisvicis> houmala, ubuntu has no top end, i believe. but 32 bit pcs are limited to ~3.5 Gb ram.
[05:56] <fivetwentysix2> i remember back in 1998 i had a 4gb harddrive

[05:56] <Kasuko> Can anyone help me with and internet problem? I seem connected to the router and I have and ip address and a DNS server but I have no internet. It worked for like three weeks and this seems out of the blue. I recently copied a command to open a port from iptables that is the nearest thing I did to the interent
[05:56] <maestrojed> I am using ubuntu for my first time.  I am building a web server.  Does Ubuntu Server have a GUI or just Ubuntu Desktop?
[05:56] <Rowan> !DualHead
[05:56] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[05:56] <houmala> that seems to agree with what i saw on a system monitor screen
[05:56] <coded1> nickrud, ubotu thanx
[05:57] <clearzen> Kasuko: Does the router itself have a ip address assigned to it?
[05:57] <fivetwentysix2> maestrojed only ubuntu desktop edition
[05:57] <Kasuko> yes
[05:57] <Kasuko> I can get on the internet with the windows box im on now
[05:57] <fivetwentysix2> maestrojed i suggest only using the server edition if you absolutely know all the commands neccessary
[05:58] <Welshy> Can anybody tell me why I would get stuck at the orange screen after i login on Ubuntu... Is was working fine until it froze and I restarted it.
[05:58] <Kasuko> through the same router
[05:58] <fivetwentysix2> you can also delete the gui
[05:58] <fivetwentysix2> if you no longer need it
[05:58] <onats> hi, which file identifies my machine's hostname? /etc/hostname?
[05:58] <Flannel> !hostname | onats
[05:58] <ubotu> onats: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[05:58] <craigbass1976> onats, maybe /etc/hosts
[05:58] <clearzen> Kasuko: Right, but are you getting a address on the WAN port of the router from the ISP?
[05:58] <nickrud> onats, yes, and it should be repeated in /etc/hosts on the same line as 127.0.0.1
[05:59] <pjman> nickrud: thanks for the info. I'll install the deb.
[05:59] <Wolfsong> i just enabled my nVidia driver and rebooted and now i have a black screen. any ideas how to get it working?
[05:59] <Kasuko> clearzen, how do I find that out?
[05:59] <dvs01> w00t.. when's the new ubuntu expected to come out?
[05:59] <clearzen> Kasuko: Every router is different. You have to login and check the status of the connection
[05:59] <nickrud> pjman, what deb?
[05:59] <thiebaude> oct
[05:59] <clearzen> Kasuko: usually via web browser
[05:59] <nickrud> pjman, not a good idea to take one from either edgy or gutsy
[05:59] <maestrojed> fivetwentysix2: I know almost none of the commands.  I am building a test server to my production server which is linux (and managed by a company).  So I want my test server to be linux.  I was choosing ubuntu because I don't know the commands but I just installed server and saw that it was command line based.  If I use Unbuntu Desktop will I be able to turn it into a web server with apcahe and php running on it?
[06:00] <Kasuko> clearze, so me being on the router on a different computer connected to the internet doesnt mean anything
[06:00] <onats> thanks, but my router sees only '*' as the hostname of my device.. i dont know why it doesnt see the name. it's already defined in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts.conf
[06:00] <pjman> nickrud, http://deluge-torrent.org/downloads
[06:00] <craigbass1976> nickrud, yes, you can
[06:00] <onats> i mean hosts
[06:00] <Flannel> maestrojed: You can.  There's no difference in "server" and "desktop" versions except the default packages installed from the CD
[06:00] <clearzen> Kasuko: It does. If the second router is chained with the first. and router a is the parent. Does that make sense to you?
[06:00] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, usually you get to the router by 192.168.1.1
[06:00] <Kasuko> no im on the same router
[06:00] <nickrud> craigbass1976, the dependencies and the like are ok? Python didn't change versions again? :)
[06:00] <pjman> nickrud: they have a Feisty deb
[06:01] <Centaur5> Could somebody tell me if the pxelinux.0 file for thin clients should be located elsewhere on Feisty vs. Edgy?
[06:01] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Find anything yet?
[06:01] <Extravert> nickrud: Is there a way to edit gedits dictionary database?
[06:01] <nickrud> pjman, yes, I'd do that too
[06:01] <maestrojed> Flannel: very cool thank you for the advice
[06:01] <clearzen> I would trouble shoot this for you but I'm at work and I just got off. I'll be back online in a while though
[06:01] <nickrud> Extravert, ah, added a word to the dictionary. a sec
[06:01] <Kasuko> clearzen,both computers are on the same router
[06:01] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: kind of...found a reference to the possibility existing...just not anything tutorialwise
[06:01] <craigbass1976> nickrud, all you're doing is adding x and a desktop environment I imagine
[06:02] <Kasuko> clearzen, I dont have access to the router right now. Im at a friends house and I get the same problem
[06:02] <clearzen> Then it is a problem with the config of the computer
[06:02] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Yeah.. I think maybe I could just download the firefox source and compile it to a directory .. and then just copy the directory to my thumbe drive.. and then run the executable
[06:02] <swiftnomad> Hello. I have ubuntu 7.04 && I installed automatrix2 and it's not compatible. How do I delete it and download & install one compatible??
[06:02] <fivetwentysix2> maestrojed i pmed you
[06:02] <nickrud> craigbass1976, we were talking about deluge-torrent from an older or newer release
[06:02] <clearzen> I'll be back in a while if you are still here
[06:02] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, this might/might not work ... you might be royally screwed, but iptables --flush     ?

[06:02] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: yeah. that would work.
[06:02] <mjancaitis> swiftnomad: it is compatible with 7.04, you've done something else wrong, unfortunately
[06:03] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, whats royally screwed mean? no chance of repair or just a bit more complicated?
[06:03] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: I can't believe I didn't think of it!
[06:03] <fivetwentysix2> yay only 20mb
[06:03] <fivetwentysix2> left
[06:03] <fivetwentysix2> on my download
[06:03] <craigbass1976> nickrud, oh, I thought you were talking about running a web server on regular (as opposed to just text) ubuntu.  I missed something I guess
[06:03] <onats> my router sees only '*' as the hostname of my device.. i dont know why it doesnt see the name. it's already defined in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts.conf

[06:03] <shabboob> ok small issue i am trying to burn with k3b... whats happening is k3b sees my cdrom drive when i run it as root .... and when i run it as myself it doesnt see it period evn when i try to add it manually
[06:03] <swiftnomad> automatrix2? no when I start it it.. it tells me that it's only compatible with 6.06

[06:04] <maestrojed> fivetwentysix2: You are making me look like a rookie :) I am using x-chat and did not see a PM.  Not sure what to do
[06:04] <craigbass1976> nickrud, and I lost my glasses today.  Hey, do I know you from another linux room?  Fedora maybe?
[06:04] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, well it means if you execute that command i gave you to delete iptables rules & it doesnt work, well. um
[06:04] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: as long as it's still intel you should be fine. If you switch to an AMD pc...problems might occur...and then, maybe not.
[06:05] <XdorotaX> how do you restart the gnome panel?
[06:05] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: only used Linux on intel so far.
[06:05] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Eww.. but intel based I meant AMD too ;D
[06:05] <nickrud> Extravert, gedit uses a library to maintain local spell dictionaries, I though I knew off hand. I'll have to look (may need to know this myself one day)
[06:05] <bullgard4> I believe there is a IRC related command 'seen'. What is its syntax?
[06:05] <mjancaitis> swiftnomad: go to the automatix site, check out the wiki, and download the deb corresponding with your 7.04 version
[06:05] <fivetwentysix2> I like AMD but Intel has been out performing them in their recent chips
[06:05] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, ok well I did it and I didnt get an error, but didnt appear to work should I reboot?
[06:05] <nickrud> craigbass1976, no, I was here in 05 & early 06, you probably saw me here then
[06:05] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: My test machine is a 3200+ with 2gb of ram.. I test everything out before I put it on my "production" box :D

[06:06] <nickrud> craigbass1976, exciting times, right after the warty release :)
[06:06] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: you might wanna have two copies, and then have a symlink to your preferences in one of the installs, that way you have your settings working with everything

[06:07] <atrus> trying to print a landscape-oriented pdf to a portrait-oriented printer with evince in gutsy, but it stretches it instead of rotating it. suggestions?
[06:07] <thiebaude> can i download 7.10 from the terminal, just for testing purposes?
[06:07] <Kasuko> orbisvicis I cant access the router
[06:07] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: it wouldn't be slower than doing it over SSH!
[06:07] <Paddy_EIRE> thiebaude got to #ubuntu+1
[06:08] <thiebaude> thnx paddy
[06:08] <craigbass1976> 7.10 is gutsy?
[06:08] <nickrud> craigbass1976, yes, I took a sabbatical shortly after dapper, didn't touch a computer for nearly a year
[06:08] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: and of course, it would be as fast as if you ran only one copy...the symlink doesn't affect performance noticeably
[06:08] <Megaqwerty> craigbass1976: yes
[06:08] <z0rz> Anyone know why it's #ubuntn+1 .. I mean +1? Why not #ubuntu-beta or #ubuntu-non-stable or something aside +1

[06:09] <z0rz> ubotu isn't the same bot that was in here earlier .. is it?
[06:09] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, just to double check, instruction for accessing routers can be found http://portforward.com. just pick your router
[06:09] <KevinOman> do I need 2 nameservers to run a server?
[06:09] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: it's the original bot
[06:09] <rebootjac> nickrud: I think I figured it out. I'll pop on tomorrow sometime if it still gives me grief. Thanks again for all your help.
[06:10] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: it was under a diff name for a bit for some reason...but it's the original help bot
[06:10] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, not that I know of, I'm only running a web server on one
[06:10] <nickrud> darn, I hate that when they don't say what they thought it was
[06:10] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Are you an admin/op here?
[06:10] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: nope
[06:10] <KevinOman> how do I set up my nameserver craigbass1976
[06:10] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, I know how to access the router, I do all the time and used to be able to until recently
[06:11] <nickrud> craigbass1976, I took a nearly 10 year one in the nineties, didn't own one at all :) Needed to get outside again
[06:11] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, heh... biggum pain...  Need a walkthrough-ish thing?
[06:11] <radioaktivstorm> hello, i have been having issues connecting to available open wireless networks.. for example the one at the airport on which free wireless is available. it sees the netowork, it tries to connect, but never finishes and eventually gives up. sugesstions? I would really love to not have to be forced to use windows >_<
[06:11] <z0rz> I got one for ya'll .. I asked this in #irssi: when I press Alt+Left or Alt+Right to change between chans it says "3D" and "3C" instead of changing to different chans .. What do I need to change in Ubuntu's terminal to fix this?
[06:12] <Welshy> Can anybody tell me why I would get stuck at the orange screen after i login on Ubuntu... Is was working fine until it froze and I restarted it.
[06:12] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, are you registered on freenode?
[06:12] <KevinOman> craigbass1976: I have all the software installed I just don't know how to set it up
[06:12] <Tonren> The workaround at this bug URL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/85488 says to disable something in "linux-source".  What is "linux-source" and how do I disable things in it?
[06:12] <KevinOman> craig and I on my own url
[06:12] <Luke> does anyone know what Ubuntu package contains the "pdflatex" program? I can't find it anywhere
[06:13] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, are you registered on freenode?
[06:13] <marty> Why do you need 'pdflatex'?
[06:13] <KevinOman> craigbass1976: I own a url
[06:13] <KevinOman> craigbass1976: no
[06:13] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, do you im?
[06:13] <iblicf> /join #ubuntu+1
[06:13] <KevinOman> yup
[06:14] <craigbass1976> KevinOman, join #craigbass
[06:14] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, I dont even get the log in page, it just times out
[06:14] <Megaqwerty> craigbass1976: /msg NickServ SET  UNFILTERED
[06:14] <mneptok> z0rz: use alt [1-2] [q-o]  to change windows
[06:14] <Megaqwerty> craigbass1976: that will allow you to private chat with unregistered users
[06:14] <z0rz> mneptok: I know how to change windows that way
[06:14] <nickrud> Extravert, its ~/.aspell.en.pws here
[06:14] <marty_> If you're using  Ubunutu, Evince handles PDFs.
[06:14] <mneptok> errr ... [1-0] 
[06:14] <craigbass1976> Really,,,
[06:14] <Extravert> nickrud: ?
[06:15] <orbisvicis> Kasuko. rather stumped. maybe the driver stopped working, or is no longer detected? try dmesg|tail or lspci ?
[06:15] <Extravert> nickrud: oh
[06:15] <Megaqwerty> craigbass1976: Yep!
[06:15] <mneptok> z0rz: what are you using as a term?
[06:15] <Luke> does anyone know what Ubuntu package contains the "pdflatex" program?
[06:15] <nickrud> Extravert, forgot to put a word in my local spelling directory, that's what took so long :)
[06:15] <Extravert> nickrud: I dont have that folder =/
[06:15] <marty_> Looks like that guy just asked a question and left...
[06:15] <nickrud> Extravert, it's a file
[06:15] <z0rz> mneptok: Well whatever is best :D ... Right now just ubuntu's terminal.. but I'd gladly switch to anything that outperforms it
[06:16] <raziEL>  #ubuntu-br
[06:16] <Woosta> Where can I find a repos that has older version of some stuff? To match my hosting environment I need mysql 4.1x and php 4 .. but my local distro is feisty
[06:16] <nickrud> Extravert, ~ is shorthand for your home directory, if that's what you mean
[06:16] <Megaqwerty> Luke:   texlive-base-bin and tetex-bin
[06:16] <Extravert> nickrud: Found it. Thank you!
[06:16] <z0rz> Anyone have a suggestion of a more feature rich terminal?
[06:16] <nickrud> Extravert, yw.
[06:16] <Slaj_R> If xmms thinks a program is blocking my soundcard, how can I find out what's doing it?  System Monitor isn't telling me much.
[06:16] <mjancaitis> Terminals need features?
[06:17] <z0rz> mjancaitis: No.. they just need to work
[06:17] <marty_> @Woosta: Try looking up 'mySQL 4.1 deb' in a search engine, or something like that.
[06:17] <Extravert> nickrud: Now I can just add words directly to it =)
[06:17] <Luke> Megaqwerty: I think the texlive package is for texlive support
[06:17] <nickrud> Extravert, I think so, yes.
[06:17] <Luke> Megaqwerty: I'll look at tetex-bin
[06:17] <marty_> @Luke why do you need that package?
[06:17] <Tonren> quit
[06:17] <z0rz> mjancaitis: And I can't get the default one to work.. so I'm looking for one that let's me edit the key codes it sends to the server.. so It'll work
[06:17] <Megaqwerty> Luke: according to "command-not-found" that's what contains that command *shurgs*
[06:17] <Woosta> marty_: yeah, there's plenty of them .. but finding one that's compatible with feisty is the problem ..
[06:17] <thiebaude> when i goto justin.tv the flash works but the chat area next to it doesn't, it keeps saying Loading...
[06:17] <mjancaitis> Ah
[06:18] <thiebaude> anyone know of a fix?
[06:18] <Megaqwerty> Luke: command-not-found is a python program built into ubuntu btw
[06:18] <holotone> For some reason, my Feisty shutdown menu suddenly doesn't include "Shut Down". I only get Log Out, Lock Screen, Switch User, Suspend, & Hibernate - Any suggestions?
[06:18] <Luke> Megaqwerty: interesteng - thanks
[06:18] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, on dmesg|tail I get lines saying [12238.25600]  DROPPED IN=eth1 OUT=Mac=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:etc SRC=192.168.0.106 DST=192.168.0.255 LEN=78 etc etc
[06:19] <Luke> Megaqwerty: I think it's tetex-bin. Thanks a lot for telling me about command-not-found btw! =)
[06:19] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, and on lspci i can see my card its a built in wireless card
[06:19] <Megaqwerty> holotone: no idea, but poweroff is the terminal command.
[06:19] <mjancaitis> Anybody know any reason my new windows receive no focus?
[06:19] <marty_> @holotone: put 'shutdown 0' into the terminal
[06:19] <Megaqwerty> Luke: you're quite welcome!
[06:19] <sport> i have a odd question can i turn the ls of a directory in to a text file?
[06:19] <tiarpaijo> rim gung?
[06:19] <Megaqwerty> sport: ls > filename
[06:19] <nickrud> mjancaitis, did you do that test, the one where you have a focused window when the new one opens?
[06:20] <Megaqwerty> sport: that's the command
[06:20] <nickrud> mjancaitis, and the opposite?
[06:20] <holotone> Megaqwerty: that'll do.. thanks!
[06:20] <holotone> marty_: Will this reboot my computer, or help me resolve the missing menu entry?
[06:20] <Megaqwerty> holotone: you're welcome.
[06:20] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, ok the drivers work. are you connected to the wireless network? power failure can mess with any router wireless security
[06:20] <sport> filename being anything and it will save that into the folder its ls'in ?
[06:20] <mjancaitis> nickrud: if I have, for instance, my IM window open and I click for a terminal
[06:20] <marty_> @sport: try highlighting the ls output and right-clicking>copy>paste ;-)
[06:21] <mjancaitis> My IM window stays focused and my terminal comes up in the background
[06:21] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, and on lspci i can see my card -- Network Controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 8945ABG Network Connection
[06:21] <Megaqwerty> sport: yep
[06:21] <mjancaitis> nickrud: it's really frustrating with firefox, because the download dialog opens behind the page and I have to minimize/maximize to see it
[06:21] <Megaqwerty> you got it
[06:21] <bullgard4> I believe there is a IRC related command 'seen'. What is its syntax?
[06:22] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, I am connected at home I dont have security but here I have the WEP key
[06:22] <nickrud> mjancaitis, try alt-tab
[06:22] <mjancaitis> Alt-tab correctly moves focus
[06:22] <marty_> holotone: it should shutdown the computer, immediately. If you have something to do, 'shutdown 60' will give you a minute :-)
[06:22] <mjancaitis> nickrud: it's just when it opens
[06:23] <nickrud> mjancaitis, it's a feature :) if you have a focused window, metacity politely doesn't say you *must* look at this new window
[06:23] <mjancaitis> ... but I want it to
[06:23] <mjancaitis> I don't recall that being the case the other day
[06:24] <mjancaitis> Any way I can fix it?
[06:24] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, ok driver sees wireless & connects(?) but you get no internet traffic? most likely iptables issue
[06:24] <Megaqwerty> mjancaitis: using compiz or beryl?
[06:24] <mjancaitis> Megaqwerty: beryl
[06:24] <nickrud> mjancaitis, did you change any of the window settings? like sloppy focus, or anything? And I prefer this, since if I'm expecting the new window I just move the mouse pointer to the desktop
[06:24] <Megaqwerty> mjancaitis: minimize all the windows, then unminimize them, the problem should go away iirc
[06:25] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, I installed guarddog recently but unistalled it could it be that thats the problem it left behind closed doors?
[06:25] <Puddle>  irc.thundercity.net

[06:25] <orbisvicis> holotone, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/65962
[06:25] <mjancaitis> nickrud: don't think I screwed with anything big like that, I messed with the cube zoom and whatnot
[06:26] <nickrud> mjancaitis, compiz & emerald? Then I have no comments, haven't used them nearly enough
[06:26] <Megaqwerty> mjancaitis: did my suggestion work?
[06:26] <Megaqwerty> (This happens to me on occasion)
[06:26] <Ryuho> how fast are fresh ubuntus suppose to start up
[06:26] <mjancaitis> Megaqwerty: no, just did it: minimize and then unminimize, then brought up a terminal again, no dice
[06:26] <mojo> Anyone know how i can force my dvd-r to eject?  sudo eject /dev/hdc is not working...  "I/O Error"... but it was working fine a few minutes ago... :(
[06:26] <mjancaitis> I've even rebooted
[06:26] <Megaqwerty> mjancaitis: no idea then.
[06:26] <mjancaitis> nickrud: it's not technically compiz, it's beryl
[06:27] <mjancaitis> But I get it
[06:27] <nickrud> mjancaitis, used that one even less, since my ati card froze whenever I tried to log out to gdm
[06:27] <Megaqwerty> mojo: are you sure hdc is your dvd drive? o.0
[06:27] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, i really dont understand. sudo iptables -F should work? if not, reboot
[06:27] <mojo> Megaqwerty: yeah
[06:27] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, i ran dhclient eth1 and it found the dhcp and assienged me a ip no problem
[06:27] <marty_> Ryuho mine starting in ~80 seconds, fresh from dell.
[06:27] <Megaqwerty> mojo: sounds like a hard drive to me...strange
[06:27] <Ryuho> meh
[06:28] <Megaqwerty> mojo...try unmounting it, and the running mount -a
[06:28] <mojo> Megaqwerty: IDE DVDR/CDR
[06:28] <Megaqwerty> mojo:  that might work
[06:28] <MilitantPotato> How do I tell what version of ATI display driver I have installed. I'm on Ubuntu feisty
[06:28] <z0rz> Anyone have a recomendation for a good terminal replacement (aside xtemr)?
[06:28] <Ryuho> marty_ thanks for the answer
[06:28] <ckin2001> z0rz - konsole
[06:28] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: zsh?
[06:28] <nickrud> Kasuko, ]  DROPPED IN=eth1 OUT=Mac=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:etc SRC=192.168.0.106 DST=192.168.0.255 LEN=78 etc etc <-- this is definitely an iptables message; try sudo iptables -F see if that helps
[06:28] <mojo> Megaqwerty: /dev/hdc not mounted
[06:28] <bullgard4> What log has in Ubuntu 7.04 taken over the role of /var/log/boot.msg which can be found in other Linux distributions?
[06:28] <z0rz> ckin2001: I forgot to add that to the "aside" list
[06:28] <mojo> Megaqwerty: hmph!  weird, no?
[06:29] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: or do you mean the emulator itself?
[06:29] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: I want to emulator itself
[06:29] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: gnome-terminal is pretty good if that's what you mean
[06:29] <z0rz> I want the emulator*
[06:29] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, try rebooting after sudo iptables -F. dhclient might not mean anything. it might assign a static ip address if not connected. or iptables might allow internet
[06:29] <orbisvicis> *dhcp
[06:29] <Megaqwerty> mojo: indeed it is. try the mount -a
[06:29] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Do you know how to enable meta keys in gnome-terminal?
[06:29] <marty_> z0rz GNOME terminal seems fine, bash seems fine. Anything more specific you'd like to ask?
[06:29] <orbisvicis> holotone, fix included in that link
[06:29] <tarelerulz> anyone use Deluge and have it where they could not get web pages
[06:29] <mojo> Megaqwerty: did try; no joy
[06:30] <z0rz> marty_: Yeah.. refer to my meta key question ^^
[06:30] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: hmm...haven't ever needed to...but I would guess it would either be done in Edit>Profiles, or it would be done in the .bashrc
[06:30] <mojo> Megaqwerty: i am tempted to do the dreaded reboot :-/
[06:30] <Megaqwerty> mojo: yeah...try mounting the drive manually first.
[06:30] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: I'm pretty sure it'd be in the terminal preferences.. but I can't find anything in profiles
[06:30] <Megaqwerty> mojo: just out of curiosity.
[06:30] <orbisvicis> holotone, also try reloading/unloading acpi/apm
[06:30] <marty_> z0rz try edit>Keyboard Shortcuts ;-)
[06:31] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: actually...I think irssi is the problem, not your emulator.
[06:31] <z0rz> Marty_ I don't see any option for meta keys.. (specifically the Alt key in combination with the arrow keys)
[06:31] <marty_> z0rz what do you want to accomplish?
[06:31] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: In irssi they said it was gnome-terminal not sending the meta key correctly .. plus I don't have any problem with putty.. or Mac OS X terminal, once I enable meta keys
[06:32] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: oh, then yeah, I'd try out konsole.
[06:32] <z0rz> marty_: When I press Alt+Left or Alt+Right to change between chans it says "3D" and "3C" instead of changing to different chans .. What do I need to change in Ubuntu's terminal to fix this?
[06:32] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: Meh.. I'd perfer a gnome program.. I haven't had to use a KDE program yet ;D
[06:32] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, i did sudo iptables -F and it went back to commandline so I did sudo iptables -F -v to make sure and it said it flushed everything. I rebooted and nothing. All i did was fol,low this post to get azureus to work
[06:32] <bullgard4> Welches Log hat in Ubuntu 7.04 die Rolle von /var/log/boot.msg bernommen, was man in anderen Linux-Distributionen findet?
[06:32] <marty_> z0rz chans? I use the terminal quite a bit, but I'm unsure what you mean...
[06:32] <nickrud> eterm!
[06:32] <Kasuko> orbisvicis, http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/NAT_problem#Port_Forwarding_on_Linux.2C_specifically_Ubuntu
[06:33] <z0rz> marty_: Then I assume you don't know what irssi is
[06:33] <marty_> z0rz I assume you're right.
[06:33] <z0rz> marty_: :D

[06:34] <nickrud> MilitantPotato, did you install the fglrx one, or are you still using the default one from the install?
[06:34] <z0rz> marty_: You can still help if you know how to make gnome-terminal send a 'meta' key when I use Alt+Key combinations

[06:38] <z0rz> Flannel: I'm nutorious to page back up in a chan to find a link .. and then leave it.. and come back a few days later and have to page down through about a million lines of text
[06:38] <qebab> z0rz: I do the same ;)
[06:38] <ThanatosDrive> z0rz: A scrollbar is handier, in place of the Page Down button.
[06:38] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, do you have bum installed. if not read the man pages for update-rc.d. Need to remove iptables_azureus. then delete the file you created. Btw port forwarding is usually managed by a router.
[06:39] <z0rz> ThanatosDrive: Alright.. how do I get a scroll bar in irssi? ;)
[06:39] <jon_> ok here is the short version, he specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.
[06:39] <ThanatosDrive> z0rz: Hrm. :(
[06:39] <z0rz> ThanatosDrive: A classic answer: sudo apt-get remove irssi
[06:39] <Kasuko> I forwarded the port on the router, but it says ubuntu closses all ports
[06:39] <chalcedny> how do i tell which version of ubuntu i have?
[06:39] <Paddy_EIRE> ThanatosDrive, irssi is not a gui app

[06:40] <marty_> chalcedny System>About Ubuntu -- should be in the middle there.
[06:41] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: it does the same thing for me in both Konsole and Gnome...
[06:41] <nickrud> erm, lsb_release -a chalcedny
[06:41] <z0rz> chalcedny: Yeah.. just use marty_'s suggestion
[06:41] <chalcedny> 2.6.17-12-generic

[06:42] <Parisi> Ok, thanks just checking.
[06:42] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: What terminal is OpenBSD running?
[06:42] <z0rz> Megaqwerty: I know it's not bash .. or whatever shell this bsd box is using
[06:42] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, well whatever the case thats besides the point. you need internet. possibly a quick fix is install guarddog again and make sure to open http(s) ports 80,83. or remove the script from the runlevels.
[06:42] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: exactly
[06:42] <orbisvicis> Kasuko, its late here gtg. good luck
[06:42] <ThanatosDrive> marty_: Emote.
[06:42] <nonix4> I downloaded the 7.04 iso - how do I keep the image mounted and as an apt source? Hack fstab & sources.list or do it some simpler way?

[06:43] <z0rz> Heh.. that sounds like I'm contradicting my previous statement.. but what I was saying before was "I know it's not bash's fault"
[06:43] <nickrud> #ubuntu+1 sboysel
[06:43] <Flannel> sboysel: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[06:43] <marty_> z0rz you're in BSD? Well, should be sh, the original Bourne Shell, or Kornshell? I think just sh.
[06:43] <Megaqwerty> z0rz: ps aux | grep bash
[06:43] <Paddy_EIRE> ionstorm, could you give mojo your link to your unleashed blog

[06:45] <orbisvicis> actually Kasuko just change the script so it does nothing. blank it.
[06:46] <z0rz> Eww.. and in xterm Alt+Num doesn't work..
[06:46] <marty_> z0rz try bash --version, that would tell you if bash is there.
[06:46] <nathan_> does ubuntu have Emerald installed by *default* ?
[06:46] <Flannel> z0rz: You'll want to bind a key combo to scroll_end

[06:48] <Scorp> ThanatosDrive, Its lyk, the system has slowed down pretty much... the applications take time to load and even the booting time has increases

[06:48] <Megaqwerty> Scorp: prelink will speed things up for you
[06:48] <Scorp> Megaqwerty, wat is prelink ??
[06:48] <z0rz> marty_: You are probably read my "It's not bash" statement.. which I cleared up in my next message
[06:48] <Megaqwerty> Scorp: it loads all the libraries needed for your apps automatically, so apps start up faster.
[06:49] <mojo> ionstorm: your blog has a ton of good stuff on there, but no search!!  :D

[06:49] <z0rz> Flannel: Any idea what sb stands for?
[06:50] <Megaqwerty> Scorp: indeed!
[06:50] <sport> strongbad?
[06:50] <Scorp> Megaqwerty, but wont the preloading increase the booting time also ???
[06:50] <z0rz> sport: Prally :D
[06:50] <mojo> read the FANTASTIC manual?

[06:50] <radioaktivstor1> hello any body know why i cannot connect to open networks  in ubuntu?
[06:50] <z0rz> Flannel: Nice.. I love Matt.. he's an irssi genious
[06:50] <Scorp> Megaqwerty, alright... i'll check dat out.. thanx..!!
[06:50] <mjancaitis> Searching for my problem on google is so hopeless... the words "ubuntu," "windows," and "background" combine for endless variations of things that screw up my search :(
[06:50] <sonex> How do I cause Ubuntu to load a kernel module on startup? (I currently need to do a manual "insmod" each time I reboot).
[06:50] <berent> i have always wanted to know what does web scrapers used for??
[06:51] <Flannel> z0rz: if you look at the bind stuff (earlier on that page) you'll see what I meant about scroll_end
[06:51] <nickrud> sonex, add the module name to a line by itself in /etc/modules
[06:51] <z0rz> Flannel: I must have missed your message about scroll_end .. did you address me when you said it?
[06:51] <sonex> nickrud: Thanks
[06:51] <marty_> @sonex: add the module name to /etc/modules file.
[06:51] <sport> whats the second widely used shell out side of BAsh? ( for linux)
[06:52] <Scorp> Megaqwerty,  hey, once its installed, is it active, or do i need to put it d sessions file n all ???
[06:52] <lowdn_09> anybody using guraddog?
[06:52] <Flannel> z0rz: I did.  5 minutes ago (:46)
[06:52] <airwaffle> my ipod won't mount "not a valid block device", is this a problem with fstab, or with the device?
[06:52] <marty_> @sport ksh? csh? two other popular ones not counting bash, though they aren't that popular in the first place ;-)
[06:52] <Megaqwerty> Scorp: follow this guide here: http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/05/speed-up-dynamic-linking-using-prelink.html
[06:53] <sport> marty_ so they probably aren't worth learning?
[06:53] <z0rz> Flannnel: Wow!  I just realized the server time is 4 minutes off from actual time!
[06:53] <nonix4> sport: hard to say, tcsh is such oldschool that it can't really be too popular, zsh is nice but doesn't seem to be catching wind for reason or another
[06:53] <Hudko> Ahojte.
[06:53] <z0rz> Flannel: Looks like I'll be moving my irssi box to my home machine.
[06:53] <marty_> @sport: that depends, why wouldn't you want to use bash?
[06:54] <z0rz> Flannel: Good to know about /sb end though .. thanks
[06:54] <Megaqwerty> sport: I love zsh. It's more powerful than BASH!
[06:54] <madera> Hello everybody. I have a rather simple question... I installed kubuntu for the KDE libs but now it changed my Ubuntu orange splash screen (when the computer boots). I happen to preffer the orange one to the new Kubuntu blue one. How do I get my orange one back?
[06:54] <sport> marty_ just trying to learn about alternatives
[06:54] <nickrud> !usplash | madera
[06:54] <ubotu> madera: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[06:54] <Flannel> z0rz: Sounds like you need ntpd
[06:55] <z0rz> Flannel: Well.. yes.. but I don't maintain this shell server.. so it looks like I'll be using my own ubuntu box
[06:55] <nonix4> Megaqwerty: any ideas on whether zsh has those bash-like bugs that attempt to gain sentience when hooked up w/ a terminal that loops input back to bash for reason or another?
[06:55] <marty_> Well, there's bash, ksh, zsh, ksh, and possibly tcsh for GNU/Linux to my knowledge.
[06:55] <Flannel> madera: splash screen, the loading screen?  dpkg-reconfigure usplash-artwork.so
[06:55] <z0rz> Hmm so after all this I still can't figure out how to get meta keys working in gnome-terminal.. I guess I'll just use Alt+P and Alt+N
[06:56] <Megaqwerty> nonix4: I have no idea what you just said, but I haven't had any problems running it from bash or vice-versa
[06:56] <Flannel> z0rz: /window # also works
[06:56] <jon_> anyone have a min to help a n00b ?

[06:56] <marty_> @jon_ ask, n00b -.-
[06:57] <jon_> its wine related , here is problem
[06:57] <jon_> Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.
[06:57] <Megaqwerty> sport: nonix4: here is part of my .zshrc makes the switch really easy, and gives you a really sweet adaptable prompt.
[06:57] <Flannel> jon_: Did you run winecfg before running your exe?
[06:57] <jon_> yes
[06:57] <Megaqwerty> sport: nonix4: http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/675462
[06:57] <marty_> Oh great, consider asking WINE users themselves? Try winehq.org

[06:58] <sport> Megaqwerty, cool thanks
[06:58] <berent> Flannel ; but why do you want to automate and test it?
[06:58] <z0rz> Flannel: Too slow for me .. I'd rather use Alt+Num key (which is working.. just not Alt-Left and Alt-Right)
[06:59] <nonix4> How do I add a 7.04 dvd .iso as an apt source? Do I need to manually hack in the loopback entry in fstab?
[06:59] <Flannel> z0rz: not if you're on window 7, and have to get to window 17(and don't want to reset status of the intermediates)  Multiple methods are good.
[06:59] <Flannel> nonix4: you'll mount it, then use apt-cdrom add
[06:59] <mjancaitis> nonix4: you should be able to uncomment a line in apt-sources
[06:59] <Megaqwerty> nonix4: hold on...I'll pastebin a nice nautilus script for mounting iso files
[06:59] <nonix4> Flannel: permanently ;)
[06:59] <sonex> I just checked. My kernel module (fglrx) is already in my etc/modules file. It doesn't load on startup, but if I type "insmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-27-386/misc/fglrx.ko", it loads. Is the module in the wrong spot?
[07:00] <marty_> Well, bye!
[07:00] <Flannel> berent: test?  what?  you automate so you don't have to manually browse/recurse through sites
[07:01] <berent> Flannel : is there any tool in ubuntu like velocityscape
[07:01] <Megaqwerty> nonix4: http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/675465 that's the mount script
[07:01] <Flannel> berent: I've never heard of velocityscrape, what does it do?
[07:01] <Megaqwerty> nonix4: I'll get the unmount script if you want as well
[07:02] <Scorp> Megaqwerty, how do i save the file and exit in VI ??
[07:02] <berent> Flannel: http://www.velocityscape.com
[07:02] <Megaqwerty> Scorp: hold on...I've never used VI
[07:02] <Flannel> berent: That webpage doesn't explain anything.  What does it actually do?
[07:02] <z0rz> Flannel: Ahh yes.. I'm always in favor of multiple methods

[07:03] <ckin2001> scorp - press ESC, then :wq
[07:03] <berent> Flannel : which one is already installed?
[07:03] <ckin2001> eek too late

[07:10] <airwaffle> soo...anyone with ideas on forcing a format on external device?
[07:10] <tinfury> ?dm?
[07:10] <CoasterMaster> tinfury: in a console type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (using GNOME)
[07:10] <CoasterMaster> tinfury: kdm for KDE and gdm for GNOME
[07:10] <astro76> tinfury, that will work whether you are using kdm gdm or xdm
[07:10] <Sam_Wesin> /dance
[07:10] <CoasterMaster> oh snap, i thought you had to replace the letter, my bad
[07:10] <tinfury> How do I start it back? startx?
[07:11] <CoasterMaster> same thing, but replace stop with start
[07:11] <astro76> CoasterMaster, Bash does that ;)
[07:11] <tinfury> Thanks

[07:16] <gerso> hello room
[07:16] <gerso> can someone tell me the command to become root in the terminal please
[07:16] <tarelerulz> I am just lost what would make you not get net when downloading
[07:16] <astro76> tarelerulz, a lot of consumer routers have real problems handling lots of connections, some will have a setting to decrease the time for connection states to be dropped
[07:16] <Flannel> gerso: Why do you want a root terminal?
[07:16] <sapumal> what is the best pdf editor available for ubuntu.
[07:16] <astro76> tarelerulz, which could help, some have to be reset sometimes...
[07:16] <sonex> gerso: try "sudo bash"
[07:16] <gerso> i am trying to install some files
[07:17] <Flannel> sonex: no.
[07:17] <Flannel> gerso: Use sudo
[07:17] <astro76> !root | gerso
[07:17] <ubotu> gerso: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:17] <gerso> sonex that did the trick, thanks

[07:19] <nickrud> Kousotu, no

[07:19] <Kousotu> can wine give linux any trojans?
[07:19] <chalcedny> TylerJGillies: sudo apt-get
[07:19] <nickrud> Kousotu, if you really want a decent windows in linux, use virtualbox or vmware

[07:20] <nickrud> vicmst, you can run gnome from that login, look under sessions. It's only a session manager
[07:20] <chalcedny> sapumal: evince
[07:20] <chalcedny> at least that is what i have
[07:20] <vicmst> Nickrud -- I'm aware of such, I want the "gnome" login, though!
[07:21] <Kousotu> underdog5004: I have a program that shows up as: Trojan.Delf-72 FOUND
[07:21] <nickrud> vicmst, then sudo update-alternatives --config gdm
[07:21] <sonex> I'm back. Earlier I was trying to get the fglrx module loaded on startup and someone suggested adding it to my modules.conf file. It turns out it's already there. When I insert it with insmod, I need to supply the full path to the .ko file. Do I need to copy the module to a particular directory?
[07:21] <nickrud> sonex, run sudo depmod -a
[07:21] <vicmst> nickrud -- "No alternatives for gdm."
[07:21] <Kousotu> now some programs Iuse as expansions show up like that, but can a windows exe run under linux using wine give linux a trojan?
[07:21] <nickrud> sonex, that should make it work for you
[07:21] <sapumal> chalcedny: I can view files in evince but I can't edit them
[07:22] <nickrud> vicmst, then sudo aptitude install gdm
[07:22] <chalcedny> sapumal: oh yeah
[07:22] <sonex> nickrud: I'll try that, thanks.
[07:22] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu if you choose to run the trojan?
[07:22] <Flannel> vicmst: dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[07:22] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu and if its compatible with Wine, not everything works with wine
[07:22] <Kousotu> ?
[07:22] <nickrud> erh, vicmst sorry, see Flannel :)
[07:22] <vicmst> Flannel, thank you :)
[07:23] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu if you run wine trojan.exe or whatever the trojan is, and if its compatible with wine, not all programs work under wine.
[07:23] <Flannel> vicmst: and, for the firefox start page, update-alternateives --config firefox-homepage
[07:23] <ironmata1> is the distribuited free cd for linux the x86 32bit iso?
[07:23] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: ok, let's assume it is, how would I clean it?
[07:23] <Flannel> ironmata1: you can get that one, yes.
[07:23] <nickrud> ironmata1, you ask the strangest questions sometimes
[07:24] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu I have no idea, I've never been dumb enough to consciously choose to run a windows virus on a linux system...
[07:24] <ironmata1> well i have that cd and i was asking to confirm
[07:24] <Flannel> ironmata1: it should be printed on it somewhere
[07:24] <chalcedny> sapumal: did you find anything that will let you edit pdfs?
[07:25] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: I've had programs that run as a "virus" but they're clean
[07:25] <Flannel> ironmata1: if not, what color is it?
[07:25] <Kousotu> I have to reinstall linux anyway, guess it wouldn't kill me
[07:25] <Kousotu> lol
[07:25] <mattg> hey everybody
[07:26] <JCDG> hey mattg
[07:26] <demonspeeding> hello
[07:26] <mattg> i need to know how to make knetworkmanager start up everytime i login because it's not starting for me when i go to configure autostart
[07:26] <mattg> so i need something to force it to start
[07:26] <nickrud> sapumal, there's a package called pdfedit, but I've never tried it myself
[07:27] <Kousotu> I won't be able to VM it, aim won't lie you send anything with a "trojan"
[07:27] <Kousotu> let*
[07:27] <ironmata1> red paper cd case 7.04 and it only says this pc edition will run on intel x86 based systems  including i pent i core amd athelon
[07:27] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu are you saying, that you have windows programs, that are "clean viruses" and for some reason you need to run those in Ubuntu?
[07:28] <Flannel> ironmata1: that's x86 32bit
[07:28] <JCDG> let me find something...
[07:28] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: no
[07:28] <demonspeeding> is there a flash equivalent that will run on x64 ubuntu? adobe doesn't seem offer anything like that
[07:28] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: I have a program I am unsure of
[07:28] <ironmata1> i dident see the exact iso distro printed anywhere is why i asked
[07:28] <Kousotu> as I didn't get it the usual way
[07:28] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu you said you have programs that are clean but run like a virus...
[07:28] <sapumal> nickrud: I ll try that. thanks.
[07:28] <Kousotu> demonspeeding: yes
[07:29] <ironmata1> thank u flannel
[07:29] <demonspeeding> really? do you have a link or something?
[07:29] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: I said: some programs that enhance games I have show up as viruses
[07:29] <z0rz> I'd like to configure my 7 button mouse so that one of the buttons goes forward in firefox ... I've already edited the xorg.conf to enable the back button.. what do I need to do to add the other button to work as a forward button?
[07:29] <nickrud> !mouse | z0rz
[07:29] <ubotu> z0rz: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[07:29] <Kousotu> demonspeeding: open synaptic and search "flash"
[07:29] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu you mean cheats? enhance games isn't  very good term...
[07:30] <demonspeeding> right on, thank you
[07:30] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: well, sometimes. other times it shows better data, like the actaull health of anenemy
[07:31] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu so hacks... If you game enough to use hacks like that, why run the games in Ubuntu?
[07:31] <chalcedny> does anyone use a gui lan messenger ?
[07:31] <b0xii> chalcedny, no but i'd be interested in my options
[07:31] <z0rz> nickrud: Thanks
[07:32] <JCDG> matt are you there?
[07:32] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: I game on windows, not linux
[07:32] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu so why are you running it in wine?
[07:32] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu you aren't making sense.
[07:33] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: you're not reading
[07:33] <chalcedny> b0ha: looking at gtalk and xphone .. haven't seen what xphone does yet
[07:33] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu no, you're not making sense.
[07:33] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu try to be clearer when saying something if you think its on my side.
[07:33] <Kousotu> [00:24:59]  Kousotu : d4rkmonkey: I've had programs that run as a "virus" but they're clean
[07:34] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu yeah, I read that.
[07:34] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu then you stated that those were game hacks
[07:34] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu then you stated that you game in windows
[07:34] <pvd2006> hey everyone, I need help setting up sources for gusty gibson
[07:34] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu but your whole problem is a supposed trojan in wine.
[07:34] <z0rz> I guess I have to restart x everytime I edit xorg.conf for the settings to take effect
[07:34] <d4rkmonkey> pvd2006 update-manager -d should update
[07:35] <d4rkmonkey> pvd2006 if not, you need to change your meta-release file then try, I can give you a link to the meta-release that should work if you need it
[07:35] <Kousotu> d4rkmonkey: what is the chance the troja will be compadable?
[07:35] <pvd2006> im actually running on gutsty gibson already, just need to setup the sources file to download from all the repositories again. I havent used linux in a while, haha.
[07:35] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu I don't know, I don't know anything about how wine works.
[07:35] <d4rkmonkey> pvd2006 oh lol
[07:36] <d4rkmonkey> pvd system>adminstration>sources ?
[07:36] <d4rkmonkey> pvd2006 ^^ gah, I forgot to tab that time
[07:36] <multiverse> Hi all.   I want to review the contents of this package:
[07:36] <multiverse> /pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/nvidia-glx_1.0.9639+2.6.22.3-10.1_i386.deb
[07:37] <multiverse> How do I do that?
[07:37] <multiverse> I want to see who wrote the package and other biographical information.
[07:37] <d4rkmonkey> multiverse what happens when you double click it?
[07:38] <Kousotu> it was clean, as I though
[07:38] <Kousotu> I remembered my advanced cleaning too
[07:38] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu if its clean why are you worried about a trojan?
[07:38] <furious_gerbil> anyone in here use Beryl?
[07:38] <multiverse> I don't have that package on my system yet.
[07:39] <d4rkmonkey> !beryl | furious_gerbil
[07:39] <ubotu> furious_gerbil: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:39] <multiverse> I want to download it and look inside it.
[07:39] <furious_gerbil> thanks
[07:39] <Kousotu> I just ran it a sec ago
[07:39] <Kousotu> it's clean
[07:39] <d4rkmonkey> multiverse what happens when you double click it? from what you said, it looks like its on your comp.
[07:39] <d4rkmonkey> Kousotu so why didn't you do that in the first place?
[07:40] <Kousotu> I forgot about my tool
[07:40] <multiverse> It is not
[07:40] <Kousotu> lol
[07:40] <demonspeeding> is there a key combination to swap between workspaces in ubuntu?
[07:40] <multiverse> I got it from here:  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/gutsy-alternate-i386.list

[07:43] <t-dawg> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE3KdcTgrno
[07:43] <Fivetwentysix> hey guys i have a problem
[07:43] <t-dawg> channel #stealthbot
[07:43] <t-dawg> go now
[07:43] <Kousotu> demonspeeding: I'll check
[07:43] <Fivetwentysix> My monitor doesn't support the default resolution Ubuntu starts in
[07:43] <Fivetwentysix> I have two monitors
[07:44] <pvd2006> Hmm the ubuntu sources.list generator doesnt seem to have all the repositories listed
[07:44] <pvd2006> :-\
[07:44] <Fivetwentysix> a samsung 226bw and a viewsonic vx922
[07:44] <Fivetwentysix> how can i change the default resolution of ubuntu?
[07:44] <Benalex> GoodDay to you all... Can I ask a question?
[07:45] <tinfury> Hey anyone here know how to get this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD7QraljRfM
[07:45] <tinfury> I'm using beryl
[07:45] <gnuskool> Benalex, shoot
[07:45] <pavs> how do I install kde4?
[07:45] <tinfury> and I want to know how to get those disapearing windows
[07:45] <Fivetwentysix> gnuskool did you see my question?
[07:46] <tinfury> Like when the windows kinda sparkle away
[07:46] <slap_me> im a boring ubuntu user
[07:46] <Benalex> gnuskool .. Thank you.... I want to know as Ubuntu OS is giving support for free why it has a limited time for support, and what should I do after this period is expired?
[07:46] <slap_me> i dont need those fancy window things
[07:46] <slap_me> = X
[07:46] <slap_me> beryl and compiz are useless to me
[07:46] <summer_s4> what is the directory of the "user" main directory using cd to get me there from a freshly opened terminal
[07:46] <JCDG> ok, 526, you need to install beryl
[07:46] <Kousotu> demonspeeding: try "windows key" + tab
[07:46] <Fivetwentysix> Anyone know what I should do? I can't see gnome because it starts in a VGA resolution which my monitors don't support.
[07:47] <Kousotu> it's woth a shot
[07:47] <Kousotu> lol
[07:47] <Fivetwentysix> JCDG yeah but I can't see anything
[07:47] <summer_s4> what directory does terminal start you as?
[07:47] <Fivetwentysix> How am I suppose do anything?
[07:47] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex, you can pay for one of the support packages on the ubuntu site
[07:47] <underdog5004> summer_s4, /home/username
[07:47] <Paddy_EIRE> !support | Benalex
[07:47] <ubotu> Benalex: the official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[07:47] <demonspeeding> ehh, didn't work
[07:47] <Fivetwentysix> I tried starting up with both monitors nothing works
[07:47] <Fivetwentysix> It happened with the live cd too
[07:48] <Fivetwentysix> however i was able to fix it
[07:48] <underdog5004> Fivetwentysix, I would hit Ctrl-Alt-F1, log in, and do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, then select the res you want
[07:48] <Fivetwentysix> because there was a setting to change my resolution
[07:48] <Benalex> does this limited period support includes system updates?
[07:48] <Kousotu> demonspeeding: that was a guess
[07:48] <JCDG> wich graphics card do you have??
[07:48] <Kousotu> lol
[07:48] <slap_me> Benalex, you always get updates
[07:48] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex, update are always free
[07:48] <slap_me> but the support from actual UBUNTU is done
[07:48] <Paddy_EIRE> !canonical Benalex
[07:49] <slap_me> kinda like support from a computer company
[07:49] <Fivetwentysix> JCDG: 8800gts
[07:49] <atdt_> I want to know how I typed an entire essay in Kubuntu, with openoffice.org 2.2 and firefox in the background
[07:49] <Paddy_EIRE> !canonical | Benalex
[07:49] <ubotu> Benalex: Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[07:49] <atdt_> without noticing that my swap wasn't working
[07:49] <summer_s4> why is it that when i type cd /garnome-2.19.1/desktop (which is a valid directory from /home/my-username that it says there isn't such a directory
[07:49] <Fivetwentysix> im using pretty high end specs
[07:49] <atdt_> I wondered why it was so slow
[07:49] <gnuskool> Benalex, ubuntu versions that have LTS are Long Term Support, which is 3 years for a desktop and 5 years for servers, so if you want long support get those versions, in other versions development is the goal
[07:49] <Fivetwentysix> so i guess this is going to be a bit of a pain
[07:49] <d4rkmonkey> atdt_ Cus Ubuntu is that awesome.
[07:49] <z0rz> Is there a way to see what button the ubuntu thinks I'm pressing on my mouse (I have a 10 butotn mouse and it's hard to configure xorg.conf w/o know which button is what)
[07:49] <atdt_> lol
[07:49] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex, what is your business
[07:49] <JCDG> you didn't have anny kind of errors when you installed the drivers??
[07:49] <gnuskool> Fivetwentysix, not sure about dual monitors
[07:49] <tinfury> Hey.... I'm just installed ubuntu on my laptop and everything is running fine... but every now and then my screen flashes black
[07:49] <Fivetwentysix> underdog5004: So how do I change the resolution after i type in that command?
[07:49] <tinfury> Should I be worried?
[07:49] <Benalex> Well...... Actually I don't know what kind of support these packages will offer...... I have to read and come back to you again :))
[07:49] <Fivetwentysix> gnuskool I tried with 1 monitor for both monitors
[07:50] <Core2Duo> Hi good pople. Anyone here knows about the ubuntuhomeserver project?
[07:50] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex I mean what is your business
[07:50] <underdog5004>  Fivetwentysix, use the space bar to select resolutions, enter to move forward
[07:50] <Fivetwentysix> underdog5004: is it pretty straightf orward?
[07:50] <underdog5004> Fivetwentysix, yep
[07:50] <Fivetwentysix> alright thanks for your help I'm going to try it
[07:50] <Fivetwentysix> hopefully i'll be back on linux instead of vista
[07:50] <underdog5004> Fivetwentysix, I would do this, though: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[07:50] <underdog5004> that will be quicker
[07:51] <slap_me> i wish my parents would want to use vista
[07:51] <slap_me> = X
[07:51] <underdog5004> why?
[07:51] <slap_me> i have dual boot on my moms laptop, ubuntu/vista
[07:51] <slap_me> i wanna wipe out vista
[07:51] <slap_me> = )
[07:51] <slap_me> wait
[07:51] <slap_me> did i say use vista
[07:51] <slap_me> i meant ubuntu
[07:51] <Fivetwentysix> huh?
[07:51] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[07:51] <slap_me> its 12:51
[07:51] <Benalex> My Business is Computer services and Automation Systems
[07:51] <slap_me> sorry its late
[07:52] <underdog5004> Fivetwentysix, if you're still around, to get back to a gui, hit Alt-F7
[07:52] <Fivetwentysix> ok
[07:52] <Fivetwentysix> going now
[07:52] <d4rkmonkey> Does anyone else notice that when the application volume in amarok is at 100% the music becomes distorted? (I'm in gutsy, its an amarok problem, because if I turn the volume down a bit in amarok and turn up hardware volume, I can get it louder with no distortion)
[07:52] <Fivetwentysix> ok
[07:52] <underdog5004> d4rkmonkey, I've seen that with xmms as well
[07:52] <underdog5004> I just don't care, you know?
[07:52] <d4rkmonkey> underdog5004 any idea why it happens? Its kinda annoying...
[07:52] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex, Canonical's proper paid support for ubuntu is really excellent,  I have not found anything on any other OS that comes remotely close
[07:53] <Benalex> and I am just about to leave Microsoft World (AKA Windows) to go to Linux community, and I have been Adviced to start by Ubuntu as it is easy for linux begginers and well documented
[07:53] <underdog5004> d4rkmonkey, no idea, sorry
[07:53] <d4rkmonkey> underdog5004 thanks anyways
[07:53] <underdog5004> d4rkmonkey, np
[07:53] <d4rkmonkey> Benalex yeah, and the Ubuntu community is great
[07:53] <buddha> hello
[07:53] <underdog5004> Benalex, good for you
[07:53] <gnuskool> slap_me, why you gettin rid of ubuntu anyhow?
[07:53] <nickrud_> d4rkmonkey, that's probably a clipping artifact of the analog amplifier on your machine; keep it at about 80% to avoid
[07:53] <d4rkmonkey> Benalex Ubuntu has one of the largest communities of any distros I believe
[07:53] <slap_me> no no, gnuskool
[07:53] <slap_me> i messed up
[07:53] <slap_me> i want to rid of vista
[07:53] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud_ I don't quite understand what you're saying... but that sound good to me.
[07:53] <slap_me> im just tired, and typed wrong
[07:54] <Benalex> Ok..guys..... I can't read your replies..... it is really crowdy here... would someone please msg me on private?
[07:54] <z0rz> All: Btw I figured out how to see what button ubuntu was seeing.. I just installed imwheel and typed "imwheel -c" .. just FYI
[07:54] <underdog5004> Benalex, the problem with this channel is that you may not get your answer as quickly or politely as compared to finding it yourself w/ google.
[07:54] <Paddy_EIRE> Benalex, done right and with a good attitude and willingness to learn you simply cannot go wrong
[07:54] <nickrud_> d4rkmonkey, the top of the sine wave gets clipped off, because it runs out of voltage :)
[07:54] <ironmatar> i have a error code  to report from installing and need a fix for the x86 image
[07:54] <slap_me> google is great for fixing stuff on ubuntu
[07:54] <Paddy_EIRE> underdog5004, although this channel would not exist if we all just used google now :P
[07:54] <slap_me> as is ubuntu's site
[07:54] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud_ ok, I think that only started happening recently in gutsy too. My sound card had issues around kernel update, that was fixed, now theres this. Atleast this isn't that big of an issue.
[07:55] <underdog5004> Paddy_EIRE, true, some things are not easily found w/ google.
[07:55] <nickrud_> d4rkmonkey, I do that just as a matter of course, was an audiophile at one time
[07:55] <gnuskool> Benalex, www.ubuntuforums.com is your friend, there is a load of up to date info and helpful people there too
[07:55] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud_ ok
[07:55] <nickrud_> back when the phono cartridge was a matter of great debate :)
[07:56] <slap_me> you guys know the guy from ubuntus website, the support guy with the green shirt?
[07:56] <gnuskool> Benalex, sorry, should be www.ubuntuforums.org
[07:56] <Paddy_EIRE> underdog5004, although I find howtoforge and blogger/blogspot and numerous others excellent.. oh and ofcourse the unofficial and official wikis respectively
[07:56] <nickrud_> I wish some of these bloggers would spend time on the wiki
[07:56] <Paddy_EIRE> yes
[07:56] <slap_me> he's on firedog.com too. i think firedog took ubuntu support's picture
[07:57] <dvm> gnuskool, http://ubuntuforums.com/ will automatically redirects to http://ubuntuforums.org/
[07:58] <gnuskool> dvm, thx for that
[07:58] <ironmatar>  actually 2 errors  1 sub-process post removal script returned error exit status 139 and 2 error occured while removing packages e:sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code 1 folowing package in broken state   gparted
[07:59] <nickrud_> ironmatar, could you put the entire error on a pastebin
[07:59] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud_, ubuntuunleashed by ionstorm is very promising.. you should browse about it there are some excellent info
[07:59] <nickrud_> Paddy_EIRE, I saw that tonight (I think you were talking about it earlier) and that's exactly who I was thinking of :)
[07:59] <Paddy_EIRE> oh... :P
[07:59] <ironmatar> nick im not sure where i would find the record of it
[08:00] <Coole^> notify
[08:00] <nickrud_> ironmatar, you'd run the command again in a terminal, and copy and paste the output to the pastebin

[08:03] <pyrohotdog> :-( /dev/hdc: 2295104 blocks are free, 2313101 to be written!
[08:03] <slap_me> !wine
[08:03] <nickrud_> ironmatar, ah. boot the cd, and run the self test on the startup screen

[08:03] <ironmatar> Ipastbin
[08:04] <ironmatar> Ipastebin
[08:04] <ironmatar> huh
[08:04] <d4rkmonkey>  ...
[08:04] <d4rkmonkey> ironmatar what are you talking about?
[08:04] <nickrud_> donkeegan, http://lsb.blogdns.net/ry5u870/ might have some info for you
[08:04] <donkeegan> thanks
[08:05] <ironmatar> i was trying to get the pastebin link
[08:05] <d4rkmonkey> oh lol...
[08:05] <ironmatar> for some reason its not recogniseing my !!
[08:05] <d4rkmonkey> you're typing I
[08:05] <d4rkmonkey> not !

[08:05] <d4rkmonkey> you were typing Ipastebin
[08:05] <pavs> hi I just installed KDE but I am not sure if it's 4.0? how do I find out?
[08:06] <thedonvaughn> pavs: if you don't know, I promise you didn't install 4
[08:06] <pavs> ok so how do I install 4?
[08:07] <demonspork> pavs, 4 is a bit buggy
[08:07] <ironmatar> nickrud_:  thanks
[08:07] <nickrud_> ironmatar, you found the problem?
[08:07] <pavs> I wanna try it out KDM is not my default, GDM is.
[08:07] <demonspork> pavs, I doubt you want 4, unless you have something that specifically needs it
[08:08] <pavs> i specifically need to try it out :)
[08:08] <llamafier> Does anyone here have experience with the ndiswrapper? Iv'e installed my wireless driver using it and it says the device is present when doing "ndiswrapper -l", but i don't see the wireless extension.
[08:09] <demonspork> pavs, I woul recommend learning something that works fully before you start messing with something buggy
[08:10] <Kousotu> demonspork: what isses are you having?
[08:10] <thedonvaughn> pavs: google is your friend.  I don't think someone is going to walk you through it on IRC.  KDE4 is still in beta and is a tedious, somewhat lengthy process.  However it has been done and people are using it, and there are many HOWTOs written on the subject
[08:10] <pavs> dedemonspork I understand your concern. I still want to try it out. and will probably will remove it later. because I am a full time gnome user. only want to try it out because i have heard some good stuff about it.
[08:11] <llamafier> pavs: That reminds me of the time i wanted to try looking glass
[08:11] <d4rkmonkey> o_O
[08:11] <Rexor_Moon> hey, I've got an internet related question, I was wondering if someone else had the same problem.
[08:11] <thedonvaughn> heh looking glass is def not worth it :)
[08:11] <pavs> ok thanks for the help.
[08:11] <llamafier> Yes thats what i found out :p
[08:11] <Rexor_Moon> every time I try to go to slacker.com, my internet freezes up
[08:12] <dooglus> Rexor_Moon: just your internet?  or the whole public internet?
[08:12] <Rexor_Moon> just mine it looks like
[08:12] <thedonvaughn> oh so that was you?  stop it
[08:12] <llamafier> So really no one here can help me setting up ndis?
[08:12] <dooglus> Rexor_Moon: shame.  or you might have just found a career in extortion.
[08:13] <likwid__> hey guys
[08:13] <likwid__> im in a bit of a pickle
[08:13] <Kousotu> likwid__: explain
[08:14] <likwid__> i was editing /etc/fstab to automount 2 volumes for me, and when i opened them all the files were locked
[08:14] <dooglus> likwid__: do you mean you've got a bit of a pickle in you?
[08:14] <likwid__> so i ran sudo chmod 666 /media/spare and i think all the data on that drive is corrupt
[08:15] <likwid__> if i do ls -l /media/spare it only shows this
[08:15] <Fivetwentysix> OK
[08:15] <Fivetwentysix> that didn't work
[08:15] <kraut> moin
[08:15] <likwid__> ?--------- ? ? ? ?             ? /media/spare/Mp3's
[08:15] <Fivetwentysix> My problem still is: I can't see anything when I start Ubuntu, no load screen, no splash screen, nothing.
[08:15] <likwid__> for all the files and folders on that drive
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> My video card is 8800gts and my monitor is Samsung SyncMaster 226BW
[08:16] <carter_> Fivetwentysix, have you tried starting in safemode
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> I'm doing a fresh install
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> I am able to start in Safemode.
[08:16] <multiverse> How do I find out what is in /pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/nvidia-glx_1.0.9639+2.6.22.3-10.1_i386.deb
[08:16] <nickrud_> kraut, python-moinmoin
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> And I tried reconfiguring xorg
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> But everytime I start ubuntu nothing appears.
[08:16] <likwid__> when i try to open something in the file browser it says the attempt to log in failed
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> Black screen
[08:16] <carter_> Fivetwentysix, try setting your graphic driver to vesa
[08:16] <Kousotu> [01:16:08]  Fivetwentysix : My video card is 8800gts
[08:16] <kraut> nickrud_: false, greeting-moin ;)
[08:16] <Kousotu> Nvidia
[08:16] <Fivetwentysix> I can hear my harddrive working though.
[08:17] <Kousotu> !nvidia | Fivetwentysix
[08:17] <ubotu> Fivetwentysix: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:17] <carter_> You won't get good graphics at all, but you can use it to test
[08:17] <Fivetwentysix> carter_ that's what it was by default.
[08:17] <nickrud_> kraut, ah, guess wrong ;P
[08:17] <Fivetwentysix> Kousotu, do you even know what my problem is?
[08:17] <carter_> Fivetwentysix, so why don't you change it to a good nvidia driver?
[08:17] <likwid__> anyone have any ideas? im completely stuck and i can't lose that data
[08:17] <dooglus> likwid__: do a "sudo chmod +x /media/cdrom" to fix that
[08:17] <Fivetwentysix> I can't see anything.
[08:17] <kraut> nickrud_: yep ;)
[08:17] <Fivetwentysix> There for I can't do anything.
[08:18] <Kousotu> [01:15:50]  Fivetwentysix : My problem still is: I can't see anything when I start Ubuntu, no load screen, no splash screen, nothing.
[08:18] <dooglus> likwid__: your 666 has simply removed the execute permission on that directory.  without execute, you can't cd into a directory
[08:18] <likwid__> omg thank you
[08:18] <carter_> try changing it to 777
[08:18] <Fivetwentysix> The only way i was able to install ubuntu, was by changing the resolution it started in.
[08:18] <likwid__> the question marks confused me
[08:18] <dooglus> likwid__: I don't mean /media/cdrom - I mean whatever the path you used with 666 before - use with +x now
[08:18] <nickrud_> multiverse, you can download the file, then double click it in the file manager
[08:18] <likwid__> i thought i lost everything on that drive
[08:18] <Fivetwentysix> By default it would load up in VGA. but by pressing f4 with the live cd i could change it.
[08:19] <Fivetwentysix> Is there any way to do that without using the Live CD?
[08:19] <dooglus> likwid__: unlikely.  I suspect you've mounted it so that only root can access the files.  is it a FAT drive?
[08:19] <nickrud_> multiverse, or, go to packages.ubuntu.com and look it up there. It'll have a list of files
[08:19] <carter_> Fivetwentysix, do a google search on graphics drivers for your card
[08:19] <carter_> find a good driver, and install it
[08:19] <likwid__> dooglus: xfs actually, for my HTPC
[08:19] <Fivetwentysix> carter_ again, how am I going to install shit if i can't see anything?
[08:20] <dooglus> likwid__: ok, I don't know anything about xfs.  did the chmod +x help?
[08:20] <nickrud_> multiverse, on the packages site, you'll need to specify gutsy
[08:20] <carter_> use safemode
[08:20] <carter_> or you could do it via console
[08:20] <Fivetwentysix> There is no safe mode
[08:20] <likwid__> dooglas: yeah, thank you, i dont kow why i didnt think of that
[08:20] <dooglus> likwid__: I wouldn't expect it to fix the original problem, but it should get you back to where you started
[08:20] <multiverse> carter, how do I set my graphic driver to vesa if I can't see anything and never get a prompt?
[08:20] <Fivetwentysix> How do I do it through console?
[08:20] <carter_> multiverse, add the text "5" to your grub boot commands on start-up
[08:20] <Fivetwentysix> multiverse you go into console and do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:20] <dooglus> likwid__: and about that pickle, wikipedia says "Medical help should be sought if the object does not emerge of its own accord within a couple of hours, and sooner if it is hard, large, has projections or sharp edges, or if bleeding occurs"
[08:20] <carter_> it will put you in text only mode
[08:21] <multiverse> I don't get a console
[08:21] <nickrud_> carter_, that doesn't work in fiesty, sadly
[08:21] <LeWeb> hello everyone
[08:21] <carter_> fuck they took away "5"
[08:21] <carter_> I'm pissed now
[08:21] <Fivetwentysix> multiverse start up in recovery mode
[08:21] <likwid__> dooglas: thanks bud, i'll keep that in mind haha
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | carter_
[08:21] <ubotu> carter_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:21] <nickrud_> carter_, well, first of all that's never been true in debian/ubuntu, and second upstart broke it
[08:21] <LeWeb> I'm having a little inconvenience with Gutsy and ndiswrapper
[08:21] <pvd2006> how do you add a key for a repository?
[08:21] <carter_> That's always worked on my debian distros
[08:21] <pvd2006> so itll work right
[08:21] <MadFaxer> hello everyone!
[08:22] <Paulman> hi, does anybody know how to install libmath and libpthread under ubuntu? im going crazy just to execute gcc -lmath -lpthread
[08:22] <LeWeb> everytime I boot it changes the name of the wireless interface to a new one
[08:22] <dooglus> likwid__: what does "ls -ld /media/spare/Mp3?s" show?
[08:22] <MadFaxer> im loving my Ubuntu installation more and more each day
[08:22] <LeWeb> and I'm afraid it will run out of names...hahah...I would prefer to have it set at wlan0 and not changing...
[08:22] <likwid__> dooglas: it was showing just a question mark, which scared me. but now its ok, i think that should fix everything :)
[08:23] <bullgard4> What log has in Ubuntu 7.04 taken over the role of /var/log/boot.msg which can be found in other Linux distributions?
[08:23] <dooglus> likwid__: what about your original "everything is locked" problem?
[08:23] <nickrud_> carter_, S13gdm is still in rc5.d; I remember it that way in debian (but that's a couple years old, and bits rot)
[08:23] <dooglus> bullgard4: heh.  /dev/null I think.
[08:23] <carter_> okay
[08:23] <carter_> thanks
[08:23] <likwid__> dooglas: still there, but ls -l is showing its owned by nobody nogroup, so chown should fix that pretty quick :)
[08:23] <bullgard4> dooglus: Are you in a good mood?
[08:24] <dooglus> bullgard4: I just woke up.  My mood is OK-ish.  Why?
[08:24] <LeWeb> so do you guys know why is ndiswrapper changing the name of the interface at every boot?
[08:24] <nickrud_> Paulman, do apt-cache search libpthread | grep dev ; and the same with libmath to find the headers
[08:25] <Fivetwentysix> How can I start ubuntu in another resolution other than the default resolution after an install.
[08:25] <nickrud_> Paulman, and if you haven't install build-essential, do so: it'll pull in the libc6 headers as well
[08:26] <Fivetwentysix> Because my monitor doesn't support whatever resolution it's default is.
[08:26] <multiverse> How do I find out what is in /pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/nvidia-glx_1.0.9639+2.6.22.3-10.1_i386.deb
[08:26] <dooglus> Paulman: libpthread-dev - The GNU Portable Threads (pthread emulation, development)
[08:26] <nickrud_> multiverse, didn't you see what I put up earlier
[08:26] <multiverse> no
[08:26] <multiverse> i'll search
[08:26] <llamafier> Does anyone here have experience with the ndiswrapper? I have installed my wireless driver using it and it says the device is present when doing "ndiswrapper -l", but I don't see the wireless extension.
[08:27] <Paulman> nickrud_, build essential is installed
[08:27] <nickrud_> Paulman, ok
[08:27] <Paulman> dooglus, libpthread-dev is installed
[08:27] <branstrom> What's the best way to get streaming QuickTime movies going in Firefox?
[08:27] <Paulman> nickrud_, im going for apt-cache
[08:28] <jscinoz> Is there a shockwave player for linux yet (that doesnt involve wine + windows firefox)?
[08:28] <nickrud_> !codecs | branstrom
[08:28] <ubotu> branstrom: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:28] <nickrud_> jscinoz, no
[08:28] <Fivetwentysix> How can I start ubuntu in another resolution other than the default resolution after an install.
[08:28] <Fivetwentysix> How can I start ubuntu in another resolution other than the default resolution after an install.
[08:28] <Fivetwentysix> Because my monitor doesn't support whatever resolution it's default is.
[08:28] <MadFaxer> When i upgrade to the next release of Ubuntu, will I lose any of my files, etc.?
[08:28] <Paulman> nickrud_, it got me libpthread-dev and stubs0
[08:28] <nickrud_> Paulman, but listen to dooglus: he compiles, I just find packages :)
[08:29] <avec> how i can start adept manager with root rights?
[08:29] <dooglus> Paulman: you sure you want -lmath and not just -lm?
[08:29] <ironmatar> well now i appear to have a working system before installing the updates
[08:29] <ironmatar> had ti run fcsk 4 times
[08:29] <Paulman> dooglus, sorry, that was -lm :P
[08:30] <dooglus> Paulman: you should have -lm installed already
[08:30] <Paulman> dooglus, but that seems to be working now... it just gives me a warning that gentoo does not give, weird
[08:30] <ironmatar> any paticular update packages that are not nessary of the 112 listed?
[08:30] <Paulman> dooglus, about pthread... still troubles
[08:31] <Paulman> dooglus, /usr/include/pthread.h:285: error: conflicting types for pthread_t
[08:31] <Paulman> dooglus, like 15 lines with that kind of errs
[08:31] <nickrud_> ironmatar, they all are important; major bugs and security issues is about all that gets released after the cd is pressed
[08:31] <branstrom> nickrud_: thanks, I guess I'll go for w32codecs
[08:31] <nickrud_> branstrom, good call :)
[08:32] <aa^way> how to  move files with sudo? sudo mv what arguments? ive reda the manual but id ont get it :(
[08:32] <nickrud_> branstrom, and if I might, I'd suggest totem-xine as well
[08:32] <ironmatar> nickrud_: well i was running the 64 bit iso and ever time i updes it broke my install
[08:33] <nickrud_> ironmatar, wierd. I always used sudo aptitude dist-upgrade , I believe in overkill
[08:33] <dooglus> Paulman: I'm not sure about the pthread package you need.
[08:33] <Fivetwentysix> sigh
[08:33] <bauer> at suse i got a nice progam called xml. I used it for formating "xml fo <filename>" is there such a progam on ubuntu ?
[08:33] <Fivetwentysix> no one can help me?
[08:33] <ironmatar> nickrud i now appear to have a functioning  install 32 bit
[08:33] <Fivetwentysix> what's the command to start up gnome?
[08:33] <mattg> i'm looking for a terminal style irc client...anybody know of a good one?
[08:33] <nickrud_> !find xml
[08:33] <dooglus> Fivetwentysix: 'startx'?
[08:33] <ubotu> Found: docbook-xml, intltool, libruby1.8, libxml-commons-resolver1.1-java, libxml-commons-resolver1.1-java-doc (and 188 others)
[08:33] <nickrud_> hm

[08:34] <dooglus> Filbert: or do you mean 'gnome-session'?
[08:34] <albert> anyone here know if its possible to type on windows while using expo plugin (compiz) ?
[08:34] <TylerJGillies> how do you run a command in gnome?
[08:34] <dooglus> TylerJGillies: Alt-F2 ?
[08:34] <nickrud_> TylerJGillies, open a terminal, type there usually
[08:34] <dooglus> TylerJGillies: or run a terminal
[08:34] <bauer> nickrud_, if you write my name in front then i might se the answer :O)
[08:34] <TylerJGillies> dooglus: thnx
[08:34] <TylerJGillies> was looking for hotkey
[08:35] <avec> how to run adept manager with root privileges?
[08:35] <LeWeb> the guys from ndiswrapper say that udev is renaming the interfaces
[08:35] <dooglus> !adept
[08:35] <ubotu> adept is the Kubuntu package manager. Howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto
[08:35] <nickrud_> bauer, I was searching, didn't wanna bother you if I didn't find anything ;P
[08:35] <dvm> TylerJGillies:  alt+F2, give "gnome-terminal"
[08:35] <branstrom> nickrud_: thanks again
[08:35] <dooglus> avec: #kubuntu is for KDE stuff
[08:35] <Paulman> dooglus, well, thanks anyway doog, bye!
[08:35] <dooglus> Paulman: cau
[08:35] <avec> i have ubuntu
[08:36] <ironmatar> 119 updates sheesh
[08:36] <albert> use synaptic package manager
[08:36] <LeWeb> can anybody help me how to figure out why is udev renaming my wireless interface and to stop it from doing so?
[08:36] <albert> *avec
[08:37] <_tux> ironmatar: 119 updates may seem like a lot but you can disable updates you may not need or for instance may not use a certain program that requires an update
[08:37] <_tux> ;-)
[08:37] <bauer> nickrud_, okey i have just mede the search too and it was negative. Have you tryed "locate xml"  insted off find its pretty fast.
[08:37] <ironmatar> _tux i just want to keep my working system
[08:38] <bauer> nickrud_, c/mede/made/
[08:38] <nickrud_> bauer, i did which xml locally, found nothing.
[08:38] <_tux> ironmater: I agree but it displays updates that go by important, recommended or otherwise other updates that may or may not be necessary
[08:38] <_tux> it all depends upon the user on what the user intends to do with the updates
[08:39] <ironmatar> i really need to get my cedega acct that im paying for put in use so i can get back to my corp in eve
[08:39] <Rhoruns_> is anyone here an expert in network translation?
[08:39] <_tux> I removed games from my applications menu completely it just was a waste of space and just slowed down the performance on the hdd
[08:39] <ironmatar> i switched cold turky if you will from win xp
[08:40] <nickrud_> bauer, loking elsewhere
[08:40] <Rhoruns_> cold turkey is fun :D
[08:40] <bauer> nickrud_, i found this http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/
[08:40] <ironmatar> people said ubunu was east  but it hasent been for me
[08:40] <mattg> what's a cool shell?
[08:40] <bauer> nickrud_, did you try the locate command
[08:41] <Rhoruns_> it's relatively easy.
[08:41] <albert> anyone know if its possible to make your own livecd  like on pclinuxos (using remasterme,mklivecd) ?
[08:41] <nickrud_> bauer, don't have any xml stuff on my machine; I'm doing an apt-find at the moment
[08:41] <Rhoruns_> to be honest though, ubuntu is more different, than it is easy.
[08:41] <Rhoruns_> did you automatically know how to use everything when you first used windows?
[08:42] <Rhoruns_> i think not.
[08:42] <slap_me> ubuntu is very easy
[08:42] <slap_me> everything worked ootb for me
[08:42] <slap_me> = )
[08:42] <_tux> Ubuntu is pretty easy when it comes to using the gnome GUI and the apt-get command through the CLI
[08:42] <Rhoruns_> if anything, using ubuntu will make you more computer literate.
[08:43] <slap_me> gnome is way better than kde, in my opinion
[08:43] <slap_me> lol ironmatar
[08:43] <_tux> to install something like a media player you could easily type "sudo apt-get install bmpx" and it'll gather the dependencies and install the program for you with ease
[08:43] <Rhoruns_> agreed. kde is too bubbly and shiny.. and stuff.. lol
[08:43] <slap_me> exactly Rhoruns_
[08:44] <_tux> ironmatar: just gotta get used to the whole UNIX-Like OSs it differs completely compared to Windows
[08:44] <x_> hi      anyone can help me about Sound ?!!!
[08:44] <albert> whats wrong with your sound
[08:44] <_tux> by default the Linux kernel doesn't carry a registry
[08:44] <nickrud_> bauer, well, I can comfortably say there is no xml command in ubuntu as such; what's it do exactly
[08:45] <x_> sometimes i haven't sound , not in startup and not in linux , anyone can help me about that ?!
[08:45] <slap_me> turn on speakers/
[08:45] <slap_me> ?*
[08:45] <_tux> x_: type: "speaker-test" inside a terminal to test the speakers
[08:46] <x_> i haven't problem with speakers .    speakers working fine
[08:46] <default_> has anyone here installed synce?
[08:46] <nickrud_> lol, x_ I have only one possible suggestion, do you have two sound cards, including maybe onboard?
[08:46] <x_> nickrud      yes
[08:46] <_tux> the sound is the issue than the problem could be that you haven't set the default sound card in Ubuntu
[08:46] <nickrud_> x_, if you can, disable the onboard then
[08:46] <multiverse> Anyone know when tribe 6 comes out?
[08:47] <x_> nickrud    how i can do that ?!
[08:47] <nickrud_> x_, in the bios of the computer, hopefully there's an option. There's a way to do that in the config, but I don't know it
[08:48] <_tux> x_: type: "asoundconf list" inside a terminal it will display a list of available sound cards then type: "asoundconf set-default-card "NAME" whereas NAME is the sound cards name
[08:48] <slap_me> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180573
[08:48] <slap_me> ...
[08:48] <x_> nickrud   u mean i can't disable it in linux and should disable it in bios setup ?!
[08:48] <_tux> but without the quotes that is x_
[08:48] <nickrud_> x_, see _tux just above
[08:48] <mattyv> albert: perhaps you could try isomaster on the existing livecd
[08:48] <dooglus> mattg: bash is pretty good.  zsh has lots of 'cool' features
[08:49] <x_> _tux   ok ... i going 2 check it :-)
[08:49] <_tux> I gotcha
[08:49] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, for some reason, I can't run uplink through Cedega
[08:49] <ironmatar> yea i know  just seems like a lot of assuptions going around here  about somone underatnding of a diffrent os    i remeber watching and waiting everyweek for the next star trek   watched people land on the moon in real time...first onling game trek 73 on a hp 36" wider printer term in the back room of the library at 300 baud watched the original star wars on the  outdoor big screen at the drive n theater but grow up with compute
[08:50] <x_> _tux   after that command , i got this :  Names of available sound cards:
[08:50] <x_> Intel
[08:50] <x_> Audigy2
[08:50] <_tux> ironmatar: Yeah from just using Ubuntu I don't have to really worry about viruses, spyware or much of the stuff that resided on the Windows OS
[08:50] <slap_me> intel = onboard
[08:50] <slap_me> audigy = one you want to use
[08:50] <ac-town> Hey
[08:50] <x_> intel is onboard
[08:50] <x_> yes
[08:50] <_tux> x_: Intel is onboard audio just as slap_me implied
[08:50] <ironmatar> still wish for the amiga's back
[08:50] <slap_me> = )
[08:50] <slap_me> working for gateway helped me with something
[08:51] <slap_me> W00t
[08:51] <slap_me> or...soon to be acer
[08:51] <x_> _tux   i can't undrestand , i'm new in linux
[08:51] <_tux> x_: Audigy2 should be your sound card
[08:51] <ac-town> How do i get firefox to output to hw:2,0 instead of hw:0,0?
[08:51] <mattg> thx dooglus
[08:51] <_tux> which in turn is what you want to use right x_
[08:52] <slap_me> x_ now type in asoundconf set-default-card Audigy2
[08:52] <x_> ok
[08:52] <slap_me> and you are golden
[08:53] <x_> in wanna using Audiogy2
[08:53] <_tux> x_: After you typed what slap_me implied type: "alsamixer" inside a terminal to raise or lower the volume controls if alsamixer isn't installed type: "sudo apt-get install alsamixer" than use the previous command I stated
[08:53] <x_> slap_me    what's full command ?!
[08:53] <ac-town> _Tux how do i get firefox to use hw:2,0 or what ever
[08:53] <ac-town> thats my sound card
[08:53] <slap_me> x_ no work?
[08:53] <x_> slap_me nope
[08:53] <slap_me> hmm..
[08:53] <x_> nothings hgappend
[08:53] <slap_me> tux?
[08:53] <slap_me> heh
[08:54] <_tux> lol
[08:54] <_tux> ac-town: what you mean by hw:2.0
[08:54] <x_> plz tell me the full command line in terminal again
[08:54] <jetscreamer> hw:2
[08:54] <jetscreamer> it starts at 0 btw
[08:54] <_tux> x_: type: "asoundconf set-default-card Audigy2
[08:55] <madera> What is the "recommended" way to make applications autostart?
[08:55] <nickrud_> madera, gui apps?
[08:55] <_tux> oops without the quotes x_
[08:55] <slap_me> i put em in the sessions
[08:55] <slap_me> so when i boot up, it starts
[08:55] <slap_me> ..
[08:55] <madera> Yes
[08:55] <x_> oh
[08:55] <_tux> ac-town: Are you trying to configure your sound work?
[08:56] <x_> nothings happend :-(
[08:56] <ac-town> yes
[08:56] <ac-town> i have a few sound cards
[08:56] <ac-town> onboard i dont use
[08:56] <nickrud_> madera, as slap_me implied, system->prefs->sessions ;)
[08:56] <_tux> x_: It should just show nothing after you typed the command
[08:56] <ac-town> its hw:0,0
[08:56] <_tux> which means it set the default card to Audigy2
[08:56] <x_> oh ...ok .. and now i should restart !
[08:56] <ac-town> the pci one on hw:2,0 i do use
[08:57] <x_> ahan
[08:57] <slap_me> yea x_ a restart may help
[08:57] <_tux> ac-town: type: "asoundconf list" inside a terminal to display a list of available sound cards
[08:57] <_tux> without the quotes ac-town
[08:57] <ac-town> i know
[08:57] <x_> so now should i restart ?! .. ok ... just a min ;-)
[08:57] <cdiddy1> What would you guys personally recommend if I was going to get a laptop for Ubuntu? I like thinkpads due to their trackpoint, but I was trying to other opinions
[08:57] <nickrud_> x_, now I'm in familar territory.  type   alsamixer    in a terminal
[08:57] <_tux> x_: type: "alsamixer" in to a terminal then you can raise or lower the volume controls using the up or down arrow keys on the keyboard
[08:57] <ac-town> tux i have 3 it says
[08:58] <slap_me> cdiddy1, im using a gateway (maybe cuz i work there) but no bias = )
[08:58] <goodwinonline> hello
[08:58] <FusE-> rawr, upgrading Dapper to Latest release: this should be fun
[08:58] <_tux> ac-town: do you know which one is the sound card you want to use?
[08:58] <madera> And what about an app that is to run when GDK (but not before) starts? I use Synergy
[08:58] <x_> nickrud_   then ?!
[08:58] <cdiddy1> do they have trackpoint -- I cannt deal with freaking touchpads
[08:58] <slap_me> nope, touchpad
[08:58] <slap_me> i <3 touchpad
[08:58] <cdiddy1> hmm, I guess IBM is the only one
[08:58] <nickrud_> x_, as _tux said, raise the volumes with the up down arrows, right left arrows to change bars, and escape key to exit
[08:58] <goodwinonline> i went to this page http://tuxenclave.wordpress.com/ubuntu-customization-guide/
[08:58] <FusE-> Note to Self: Burn ISO of Latest Ubuntu
[08:58] <slap_me> my army recruiter has a thinkpad with that damn trackpoint, i was like 'wtf is that'
[08:59] <_tux> heh nickrud
[08:59] <ac-town> yes
[08:59] <ac-town> its on hw:2,0
[08:59] <cdiddy1> of course, ubuntu works perfet on my old thinkpad
[08:59] <goodwinonline> everything worked but Compiz Fusion
[08:59] <ac-town> my amarok is pointing to that
[08:59] <_tux> ac-town: then type: "asoundconf set-default-card "NAME" whereas NAME is the name of your sound card
[08:59] <ac-town> and theis speakers somtiems switch to hw:0,0
[08:59] <tom17bombadil> madera: you can start apps in ~/.profile at login-time
[08:59] <goodwinonline> i was in the army
[09:00] <_tux> without the quotes of course ;-)
[09:00] <slap_me> yea goodwinonline im joining. = X
[09:00] <goodwinonline> are you sure you wanna join?
[09:00] <cdiddy1> Thanks for the link, goodwinonline!
[09:00] <slap_me> not infantry, gonna do M.I.
[09:01] <ironmatar> what the heck is with package 112   27 k/b a sec dload?
[09:01] <x_> thanks ... i'll be back ... need 2 restart :-)
[09:01] <madera> Actually, the program must start after GDK, immediately.
[09:01] <x_> bye 4 now :-)
[09:01] <madera> To activate the keyborad.
[09:01] <Dave-B> Hi, How do I disable PHP extensions? E.g. mbstring is active acording to phpinfo(), but in php.ini it's already commented out. (On Fiesty)
[09:01] <goodwinonline> hmm  that could be interesting intel right
[09:01] <_tux> ac-town: if your media player is pointing to a certain sound card device and the sound doesn't work than you should configure another sound card to Ubuntu
[09:01] <slap_me> yep
[09:01] <madera> Correction: GDM
[09:01] <ac-town> i have 2 cards on alas
[09:01] <slap_me> i got a 72 on my ASVAB, so i think intel would be in my range
[09:02] <_tux> only been using Ubuntu for like 2 months at least and gotta some of it ;-) though gotta love the terminal at that
[09:02] <ac-town> how do i do that
[09:02] <nickrud_> Dave-B, look in /etc/php5/conf.d it's probably enabled in there
[09:02] <tom17bombadil> madera: as far as i see, you have to start it via startup-script
[09:02] <_tux> ac-town: by typing: "asoundconf set-default-card "NAME" as I implied before whereas NAME is the name of your sound card so something like this
[09:02] <goodwinonline> well good luck slap me do your push ups and sit ups;)
[09:02] <madera> Ok, thanks all.
[09:02] <ac-town> i did
[09:03] <slap_me> hehe will do
[09:03] <ac-town> and firefox is not outputing sound
[09:03] <_tux> ac-town: "asoundconf set-default card hw:2.0" or whatever it was
[09:03] <goodwinonline> i just wish i could get Compiz Fusion the cube to work
[09:03] <bauer> nickrud_, i found it here http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/
[09:03] <_tux> ac-town: try setting another default sound card using that command
[09:03] <_tux> ac-town: also try typing "speaker-test" inside a terminal
[09:03] <Dave-B> nickrud_: Unfortunately not - there's an entry for pdo.so
[09:04] <Dave-B> but nothing else
[09:04] <_tux> you may receive a playback error or not
[09:04] <x_> _tux   thanks friend  , that working now :-)
[09:04] <x_> nickrud_ thanks friend  , that working now :-)
[09:04] <nickrud_> !find xmlstarlet | bauer
[09:04] <ubotu> bauer: Found: xmlstarlet
[09:04] <_tux> x_: welcome
[09:04] <nickrud_> x_, welcome, and thanks for sucking _tux into a new job ;)
[09:04] <_tux> ac-town: your sound may be muted, disabled as in (the volume is very low) or something else
[09:05] <x_> lol
[09:05] <slap_me> x_ all good now?
[09:05] <x_> slap_me   thanks dude , yeah , it working :-)(
[09:05] <nickrud_> Dave-B, sorry then, that's about the limit of my php config knowledge ;(
[09:05] <ac-town> my music is playing but not firefox
[09:05] <ac-town> :P
[09:06] <_tux> ac-town: Check your volume settings in the top right corner of gnome is an volume applet right-click on the volume applet and click on preferences make sure the right sound card is set
[09:06] <goodwinonline> so nobody knows about Compiz Fusion?
[09:06] <d4rkmonkey> !compiz-fusion
[09:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compiz-fusion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:06] <d4rkmonkey> !beryl
[09:06] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[09:06] <nickrud_> goodwinonline, #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects are better places to ask
[09:07] <d4rkmonkey> goodwinonline #ubuntu-effects would probably be a good place to ask
[09:07] <_tux> ac-town: you can also type: "alsamixer" inside a terminal from there you can raise or lower the volume using the up or down arrow keys and can move from left or right using the left or right arrow keys
[09:07] <goodwinonline> ok
[09:07] <bauer> my internetconnection don't start up after hibernate ? How do i get it up runneing ?
[09:07] <_tux> lol nickrub that's my new job eh haha

[09:08] <FusE-> (besides aMSN)
[09:08] <_tux> ac-town: you think your onboard audio is set as the default sound card?
[09:08] <goodwinonline> tux i think your the one who did the page ware i got the info on Compiz Fusion I didnt enter the quotes
[09:09] <ac-town> it might
[09:09] <ac-town> but i changed it i thought
[09:09] <_tux> goodwinonline: nope never been able to use compiz-fusion my video card can't even handle it
[09:10] <_tux> ac-town: I have yet to see a command to check if the default sound card is enabled but I'll check the man pages real quick for asoundconf
[09:10] <ac-town> ok ty
[09:10] <goodwinonline> tux how big is your video card that might be my problem how much ram
[09:10] <ac-town> _tux is leet
[09:10] <_tux> lol ac-town
[09:11] <ac-town> lol
[09:11] <_tux> goodwinonline: the VRAM on it is 32MBs its an old outdated ATI All-In-Wonder 128 PRO AGP 4X
[09:12] <Rhoruns_>  if anyone can solve my network translation problem, you get $1 paypal, :D
[09:12] <_tux> ac-town: you could try "asoundconf is-active" yet it doesn't give out detailed or descriptive info on it through the man pages
[09:12] <x_> _tux .. can u tell me that command for changing default sound card again ?! i wanna write it down somewhere 2 remember that :-)
[09:12] <goodwinonline> tux yeah i have like 256 mg ati radeon
[09:12] <Dave-B> nickrud_: ok, thanks anyway :-)
[09:12] <_tux> x_: type: "asoundconf set-default-card "NAME" whereas NAME is the name of your sound card
[09:12] <mattg> how do i get xfce on here?
[09:12] <slap_me> x_ now type in asoundconf set-default-card Audigy2

[09:13] <preaction> mattg, depending on your connection, probably a while
[09:13] <_tux> your music works that's stanger
[09:13] <_tux> strange*
[09:13] <x_> thanks :_)
[09:13] <mattg> more than 6 hours, preaction?  DSL

[09:14] <ac-town> what plugin then
[09:14] <_tux> ac-town: Let's see hmmm
[09:14] <dini> chian may
[09:14] <pyrohotdog> Is there a way I can play a DVD image without burning it?
[09:14] <goodwinonline> i dont even know how to get to these places #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-:-[
[09:15] <slap_me> ./j
[09:15] <slap_me> without the .
[09:15] <slap_me> ./j #compiz-fusion
[09:15] <_tux> ac-town: type: "alsamixer" in a terminal then use the left or right arrow keys on the keyboard and find something called WAVE make sure that is maxed out
[09:15] <funbitz> hi, could anyone spare some time to guide me what performance tweaks (graphics effects disabling, unnecessary processes that can spare ram, etc...) could i do to make my life easier with a 866 PIII 512RAM ?? thanks
[09:16] <pyrohotdog> funbitz: what window manager do you use?
[09:16] <skinnypuppy1334> you can also choose join server in XChat
[09:16] <preaction> !mountiso | pyrohotdog
[09:16] <ubotu> pyrohotdog: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[09:16] <pyrohotdog> I know how to mount it, but it's a video DVD, and I'd like to play it as such.
[09:16] <funbitz> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 and updated it.. so default i guess
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz try running xubuntu
[09:16] <_tux> goodwinonline: usually you create a network in xchat and edit the network then add channel or something like that to it then log in to that network and type: /join #compiz-fusion if that's the name of it
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz window manager uses less I think
[09:17] <preaction> pyrohotdog, iirc totem can open the folder just fine, otherwise try VLC
[09:17] <_tux> its confusing
[09:17] <_tux> for me that is
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz you just have to install a couple packages I think
[09:17] <preaction> pyrohotdog, there's a .IFO file in VIDEO_TS that is the main one that should just work
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz it should be fairly easy...
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> !xubuntu | funbitz
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> hmm..
[09:17] <ubotu> funbitz: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz that should help a bit.
[09:18] <funbitz> d4rkmonkey: thanks a lot. i'm gonna try that
[09:18] <ac-town> yep
[09:18] <slap_me> i need to start making my ubuntu look sweet. = X its all plain jane right now
[09:18] <goodwinonline> tux i dont see why it seems so difficult to me I know xp a little I have xp and ubuntu dual boot on my hard drive but i cant figure out how to get to #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu:-$
[09:18] <ac-town> youtube is going to my onboard card
[09:19] <ac-town> im not using that
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz I know I have a link somewhere for optimising Open Office, if you want I can search for it
[09:19] <pyrohotdog> Open the .IFO in VLC/Totem?
[09:19] <slap_me> goodwinonline, knowing os's doesnt mean you know irc
[09:19] <slap_me> = )
[09:19] <_tux> ac-town: that's weird on why it would be doing that tried resetting the sound card testing each different one throughout youtube?
[09:19] <goodwinonline> i dont know irc
[09:19] <funbitz> d4rkmonkey: if you're so kind. i'm obsessed about performance :)
[09:19] <skinnypuppy1334> goodwin <forwardslash>join #channel name
[09:19] <mattg> that didnt take too long, preaction
[09:19] <_tux> goodwinonline: you used to using xchat on ubuntu or irc in general
[09:20] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz I have nothing better to do at 3:20 AM anyways :)
[09:20] <nickrud_> funbitz, and choosing a lightweight gtk theme will help a lot; the Ice based themes are pretty fast
[09:20] <drgeb> each time i reboot the result of fdisk -l is different. why can this be happening ?
[09:20] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz just give me a bit to find the link, I forget what I did with it
[09:20] <_tux> I like Fluxbox (minimal/highly configurable)
[09:20] <goodwinonline> im new to ubunto i dont know jack i barely set this vchat up :) just when I thought i knew a little
[09:20] <hero> My Windows partitions are only readable in Ubuntu 7.04. How to make them writable, so I can save files into those partition?
[09:20] <skinnypuppy1334> I can't type in forward slash there b/c it would just add that channel and not appear for you... getit?
[09:20] <_tux> but using gnome
[09:20] <funbitz> d4rkmonkey: ok
[09:20] <_tux> goodwinonline: using xchat right now or some type of irc on Windows?
[09:21] <slap_me> mIRC on windows is the best, xchat on ubuntu owns
[09:21] <goodwinonline> irc  gaim ubuntu
[09:21] <funbitz> d4rkmonkey: can't believe you're so friendly guys around here. nice :)
[09:21] <skinnypuppy1334> xchat rocks
[09:21] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz Ubuntu community is pretty sweet ;)
[09:21] <nickrud_> I like xchat a lot, but wonder about their charging for it under windows
[09:21] <slap_me> gaim is only good for aol instant messaging = X
[09:21] <slap_me> get xchat
[09:21] <_tux> goodwinonline: never used IRC on GAIM my advice would be to install xchat
[09:22] <slap_me> sudo apt-get install xchat
[09:22] <slap_me> in terminal
[09:22] <goodwinonline> hero i think it has something to do with permissions
[09:22] <_tux> ac-town: still alive?
[09:22] <goodwinonline> ok ill install xchat
[09:22] <drgeb> how about Konversation
[09:22] <slap_me> and goodwinonline when you are done installing xchat, when you set it up, type in "/server irc.ubuntu.net"
[09:23] <hero> goodwinonline: Would you tell me how, cause I can find the answer in the Ubuntu Help?
[09:23] <slap_me> and it will log you onto this server
[09:23] <skinnypuppy1334> It's as simple as using join channel in the menu of xchat
[09:23] <slap_me> then type in /j #ubunut
[09:23] <slap_me> and you will be back here
[09:23] <nickrud_> !ntfs-3g | hero
[09:23] <ubotu> hero: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:23] <ac-town> ya
[09:23] <_tux> slap_me: dang that looked confusing lol
[09:23] <_tux> ac-town: try this link http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Sound
[09:23] <slap_me> what did
[09:23] <slap_me> heh
[09:24] <_tux> typing in server names and what not through the terminal lol
[09:24] <slap_me> no no
[09:24] <goodwinonline> hero all i know is when i try do move files between partitions from windows partition to ubunto it says i dont have permissions even though im logged in as admin
[09:24] <slap_me> not in terminal
[09:24] <slap_me> i mean in xchat

[09:24] <_tux> its 12:24am and almost time for sleepy
[09:24] <d4rkmonkey> funbitz http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/8308  that should help you optimise Open Office
[09:24] <d4rkmonkey> *optimize
[09:24] <FusE-> Yay for Edgy Eft, on to Feisty Fawn
[09:25] <_tux> what about Gusty Gibbon
[09:25] <goodwinonline> ill probably such search google more
[09:25] <ironmatar> ook i still appear to ahve a working system   all i got left before cedega is the vid driver
[09:25] <nickrud_> FusE-, doing it the long way eh ;)
[09:25] <shaoli> dafkldh;ieo
[09:25] <skinnypuppy1334> Fiesty + Automatix kicks but for me
[09:25] <FusE-> yup nickrud_
[09:25] <FusE-> yup
[09:25] <FusE-> Its tedious alright
[09:25] <slap_me> imma wait for hardy heron before i upgrade from feisty fawn
[09:25] <slap_me> 8.04 for the win1
[09:26] <_tux> how about changing my irc name to _tux soundcards lol
[09:26] <nickrud_> couldn't wait, day after gutsy feature freeze, I upgraded
[09:26] <goodwinonline> tux there ya go
[09:26] <FusE-> What is feature freeze
[09:26] <funbitz> d4rkmonkey:  cool. i'm think i'm gonna get to it right away. thanks
[09:26] <_tux> I heard Automatix caused a bunch of problems with Ubuntu systems
[09:26] <elkbuntu> !automatix | skinnypuppy1334
[09:26] <ubotu> skinnypuppy1334: 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)
[09:26] <nickrud_> when they stop adding new stuff, and go back to fix everything they broke
[09:27] <FusE-> Oh
[09:27] <slap_me> i wouldnt use automatix
[09:27] <slap_me> heard nasty things
[09:27] <FusE-> You can install Gutsy now?
[09:27] <slap_me> !clamav
[09:27] <FusE-> Use automatix, its great
[09:27] <slap_me> !clam
[09:27] <slap_me> hmm
[09:27] <_tux> FusE: Yeah if you want an unstable branch of Ubuntu Gusty Gibbon
[09:27] <doug__> how do i install java?
[09:27] <nickrud_> FusE-, read http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and then say that :)
[09:27] <rockets> Anybody here use SoundConverter, (NO I DONT MEAN soundKonverter)
[09:27] <doug__> !java
[09:27] <FusE-> _tux, is it that bad to use a unstable release?
[09:27] <elkbuntu> FusE-, depends if you want it to remove all of gnome, or mess up partitoning. Both have happened in the past few days for people
[09:27] <skinnypuppy1334> Jeez, first time I tried Automatix it sucked, Gotta say it's been headache free for me
[09:28] <nickrud_> rockets, I have it installed, yes
[09:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about clamav - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about clam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:28] <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
[09:28] <_tux> FusE: Yes if the install is through a production system
[09:28] <rockets> nickrud_, do you know if vbr highest quality does a V0 rip
[09:28] <_tux> FusE: But if you're just wanting to test the latest features than no
[09:28] <goodwinonline> installing java is fun i forgot how i did it tried limewire?
[09:28] <nickrud_> rockets, no
[09:28] <FusE-> Hmmm
[09:28] <FusE-> I hardly use ubuntu anymore
[09:28] <rockets> nickrud_, any idea how to do that with a gui tool?
[09:28] <mikebot> I'm trying to use 'wget' to save a page and all the links on the page, but I'm having trouble getting it to save more than one page... I've been using -r -l 2 -k
[09:28] <FusE-> Since my previous upgrade died
[09:28] <nickrud_> rockets, no :)
[09:28] <_tux> haha
[09:28] <mikebot> Anyone know why that isn't working?
[09:28] <FusE-> I wiped the partitions and started over
[09:29] <rockets> heh
[09:29] <_tux> its funny on how when I installed Fedora it detected my sound card automatically but when I installed Ubuntu I had to manually set it up
[09:29] <FusE-> mine is auto detected >.<

[09:30] <skinnypuppy1334> idiot should be booted
[09:30] <ImANoobieToo> anyone know how to change the default display on an x700 from VGA output to onboard LCD?
[09:30] <FusE-> skinnypuppy1334: this is why abortion should be legalized in SOME cases
[09:31] <Hobbsee> skinnypuppy1334: the idiot *did* get booted.
[09:31] <goodwinonline> tux hows security  between ubuntu and xp with a router and cable network?
[09:31] <nickrud_> FusE-, no, that would be infanticide
[09:31] <_tux> ImANoobieToo: I'm not sure but configuring the xorg file should do the trick but who knows on how to configure it to do that
[09:31] <ironmatar> ok   the commands to run the manuel vidio driver install  i have are sudo ldconfig or lpconfig i cant read it now    and which version of the nvidia driver should i egt for the amd 64 bit sys running 32 bit ubuntu
[09:31] <troubled> he did the same in #debian and #defocus earlier too
[09:31] <ironmatar> er eget
[09:32] <FusE-> nickrud_: fine, not abortion, Pre-Death Penalty will do.
[09:32] <RandomUsr> hello there
[09:32] <_tux> goodwinonline: By default Ubuntu is more secure seeing as it doesn't allow the root account to be used other than that its got a built in firewall and doesn't have ports open by default
[09:32] <RandomUsr> hmm
[09:32] <ImANoobieToo> anyone know how to change the default display on an x700 from VGA output to onboard LCD?
[09:32] <RandomUsr> anyone here have experience installing the official Intel Linux Wireless driver?
[09:32] <_tux> using the root account could either damage the filesystem or just damage important system files if the system gets comprised and someone has access to the root account you're better off wiping the hdd
[09:33] <_tux> especially if you don't know what your doing or if a user gains access to the root account
[09:33] <FusE-> eh damn, ubuntu isn't detecting my iPod
[09:33] <goodwinonline> tux so a router with a firewall as well password protected makes the connection pretty safe right?
[09:33] <kefka> goodwinonline: Yes, it acts as an NAT firewall
[09:33] <_tux> when in XP you gain complete control over the Admin account which in turn Ubuntu doesn't give you that much power by default
[09:33] <gordonjcp> _tux: how is that different from using sudo?
[09:34] <firecraft> nice
[09:34] <_tux> goodwinonline: yes if you got a pretty strong password
[09:34] <RandomUsr> ImANoobieToo, you'll prolly have to edit your /etc/xorg.conf
[09:34] <KoaL> hi ......i have a question
[09:34] <firecraft> so it's an official help channel for ubuntu :)
[09:34] <gordonjcp> _tux: to do the same kind of damage, a malicious user only needs to compromise your user account
[09:34] <_tux> gordonjcp: sudo can be temporary
[09:34] <gordonjcp> _tux: and that helps, *how* exactly?
[09:34] <_tux> you can easily kill off the 15 minute limit sudo sets using "sudo -k"
[09:34] <nickrud_> !ask | KoaL
[09:34] <kefka> goodwinonline: Another good idea is to turn the router's remote access off, to keep others outside your network from accessing its config
[09:35] <KoaL> I am new to ubuntu....and dl the cd
[09:35] <hero> ubotu: Sorry could u tell me once again how to make windows partitions writable in the Ubuntu?:-P
[09:35] <KoaL> but it wont boot
[09:35] <firecraft> *brb*
[09:35] <kefka> !ntfs | hero
[09:35] <nickrud_> !ntfs-3g | hero
[09:35] <Stefano1337> there is absolutely no need to log in with a superuser account, sudo is the way you should operate administrative tasks on your pc,
[09:35] <_tux> gordonjcp: not saying it does help just giving out an example
[09:35] <KoaL> i updated the bios
[09:35] <nickrud_> ubotu's down hero a sec
[09:35] <firecraft> KoaL, did you download the 7.04 desktop edition or server edition ?
[09:35] <ubotu> KoaL: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:35] <KoaL> desktop
[09:35] <ubotu> hero: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:35] <_tux> not going to completely type out an entire documentation on how sudo works and how the root account works
[09:35] <ubotu> hero: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:35] <gordonjcp> _tux: there isn't really a practical benefit to sudo, in most cases
[09:35] <firecraft> oh man i have to run... i'll brb
[09:36] <RandomUsr> this room is moving way too fast
[09:36] <KoaL> i keep trying to boot from the cd
[09:36] <KoaL> but windows wont let me
[09:36] <gordonjcp> _tux: but anyway, this is offtopic
[09:36] <RandomUsr> Anyone here had the pleasure of installing intel wireless drivers?
[09:36] <KoaL> i was just curious as to how you guys did it
[09:36] <gordonjcp> KoaL: have you got your CDROM set as a bootable device in the bios?
[09:36] <KoaL> yes
[09:37] <_tux> On Unix-like operating systems, the sudo command is used to run commands with the root user's privileges. This is done by entering sudo at the beginning of each line of commands. Alternatively, one may become root (system administrator) by logging in as "root" or by using the su command.
[09:37] <goodwinonline> tux its like firewall overkill norton firewall and router firewall i wonder if it matters if I hide my ubuntu partion when i boot up i can set xp partition active but then i have to boot to a drive and unhide ubuntu partion but with ubuntu i can just log in withou the partition being active
[09:37] <_tux> there
[09:37] <mattyv> KoaL: When you burnt the cd, did you burn as an image, or just a data disc?
[09:37] <nickrud_> hero, ah, ubotu's back up, did you get the message?
[09:37] <KoaL> data disc
[09:37] <kefka> nickrud_: He did
[09:37] <RandomUsr> koal: have tou set your boot device to CD Rom?
[09:37] <RandomUsr> data DISC?
[09:37] <RandomUsr> it should be ISO
[09:37] <KoaL> aaaaaaaaaah i ceee
[09:37] <mattyv> KoaL: that's it then, you need to burn as an image. Which program do you use on Windows for burning cd's?
[09:37] <KoaL> sonic
[09:38] <RandomUsr> yikes
[09:38] <KoaL> i know
[09:38] <KoaL> : P
[09:38] <skinnypuppy1334> How do you rip a CD to an ISO in ubuntu?
[09:38] <goodwinonline> yeah you need to get a program that burns a iso image
[09:38] <_tux> goddwinonline: By default the Linux kernel as a built-in firewall called netfilter though uses the iptables program for a configuration of netfilter though there are GUIs like Firestarter to configure the firewall for ease of use
[09:38] <RandomUsr> mattyv: maybe he should use the isorecorder from softpedia?
[09:38] <KoaL> Ima use PowerISO....i think that should work
[09:38] <goodwinonline> and you dont extract the iso image onto cd rom
[09:38] <nickrud_> skinnypuppy1334, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/iso bs=1024
[09:38] <KoaL> THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH YOU GUYS !!!!!!!!!!!
[09:39] <RandomUsr> nice
[09:39] <_tux> iptables just acts as the framework
[09:39] <_tux> you can define rules from within iptables
[09:39] <RandomUsr> koal should be back with more questions before things get running lol
[09:39] <mattyv> KoaL: no doubt poweriso will do it, now that you know what you have to do you should find the option easily
[09:39] <_tux> though it is pretty complicated
[09:39] <RandomUsr> he left mattyv
[09:39] <firecraft> _tux, sort of
[09:40] <firecraft> _tux, there are books i'd need to master iptables.
[09:40] <mattyv> RandomUsr: whoops, so he did
[09:40] <RandomUsr> lol
[09:40] <goodwinonline> tux i dont even bother with firewall to ubunto i researched it they said its not needed because like you said it doesnt really leave ports open and i dont have anything to hide anyway
[09:40] <RandomUsr> Has anyone installed the Intel Wifi Driver?
[09:40] <_tux> firecraft: for the novice/beginner I would agree but someone with experience differs completely
[09:41] <firecraft> _tux, of course.
[09:41] <_tux> goodwinonline: though if you have services enabled ports will be left open you can determine open ports using a port scanner called nmap
[09:41] <goodwinonline> tux well you just have to sit there and give permissions right
[09:41] <firecraft> i haven't played much with iptables
[09:41] <_tux> goodwinonline: netfilter is enabled by default so the firewall is on regradless unless you disabled it which I wouldn't know how to do haha
[09:42] <_tux> firecraft: Neither have I just leave it at default
[09:42] <_tux> but wouldn't mind learning iptables
[09:42] <_tux> the more you learn the better
[09:42] <firecraft> _tux, on top of which i have zorp installed ;p
[09:43] <goodwinonline> tux ive been  so tires of trying to figure out security really for know reason nothing to hide i talked to an it guy who said the only way to be safe is not to be on a network
[09:43] <Menth> omg we are all not safe :(
[09:43] <nickrud_> goodwinonline, if your box isn't locked into a case that only you have a key to, you're still not safe :)
[09:43] <goodwinonline> pretty much
[09:44] <Menth> wrap your computer in tinfoil that should do it
[09:44] <goodwinonline> well my wife doesnt know to much about it
[09:44] <firecraft> haha Menth
[09:44] <_tux> goodwinonline: you should be good if its only going to be use as a desktop
[09:44] <goodwinonline> yeah
[09:44] <_tux> but if not stay on top of the game
[09:45] <goodwinonline> tux ok appriciate that ill try to learn more
[09:45] <_tux> bugs, vulnerabilities, exploits, sql injections and all kinds of other stuff
[09:45] <_tux> welcome
[09:45] <goodwinonline> tux in xp i found a program called peer gaurdian it was pretty cool
[09:45] <firecraft> _tux, i didn't realize sql injection mattered to linux box
[09:46] <_tux> goodwinonline: never used it before but heard of it
[09:46] <michaelpo> i just installed weather wallpaper... why only status icon only? not showing at the wallpaper?
[09:46] <_tux> firecraft: it doesn't but if you are going to be using a server and use either MySQL or PostgreSQL than its pretty much a big deal
[09:46] <CraZy675> I've got mp3s working for amarok, how do I get mp3s working for musicbrainz?
[09:46] <preaction> peer guardian is for p2p programs, it blocks known RIAA/MPAA/govt. IP blocks
[09:46] <_tux> the only reason I see to use peerguardian is if your residing in a college
[09:47] <firecraft> _tux, i do have mysql installed to all fairness, how does that leave me vulnerable ?
[09:47] <goodwinonline> preaction what do you think of that program peer gard
[09:47] <_tux> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sql_injection firecraft here you go
[09:47] <preaction> goodwinonline, i think it works for its purpose
[09:48] <goodwinonline> preaction which is what its just good for p2p
[09:48] <_tux> vulnerabilities exist in every program every made once you fixed a bug a new one usually appears without the user knowing or with the user knowing
[09:48] <_tux> same as bugs
[09:48] <_tux> its just the nature of computers
[09:48] <firecraft> _tux, thanks and i thought, iptables and zorp then running mysql on localhost only wouldn't give out much security holes.
[09:48] <_tux> nothing is perfect
[09:48] <_tux> welcome
[09:49] <_tux> enable daemons aka services as known in (XP) that you don't use
[09:49] <arooni__> folks; i need a ftp client with a gui interface
[09:49] <arooni__> whats the best
[09:49] <goodwinonline> tux why cant ubuntu run xp games?
[09:49] <_tux> oops disable daemons
[09:49] <preaction> firecraft, just avoid running untrusted programs that interface with the SQL server. it's not the server that's the problem, it's stupid programmers and their "professional web site system"
[09:49] <michaelpo> goodwinonline: install wine
[09:49] <preaction> goodwinonline, linux is not windows.
[09:49] <firecraft> goodwinonline, depends, do you have wine installed?
[09:50] <scipio> !ftp | arooni__
[09:50] <_tux> goodwinonline: preaction just answered your question
[09:50] <ubotu> arooni__: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[09:50] <Menth> or you can install the cvscedega
[09:50] <goodwinonline> no i never herd of wine
[09:50] <firecraft> preaction, ahh yes.. figured as much. :)
[09:50] <arooni__> scipio, which is the best
[09:50] <preaction> !best | arooni__
[09:50] <ubotu> arooni__: 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.
[09:50] <_tux> though Wine can be used to run Windows programs though they won't run as nearly as good as a native Windows OS
[09:51] <goodwinonline> really lenux is not windows yeah but if you wanna play better games than like chess whats a guy to do
[09:51] <arooni__> preaction, ok; which is the simplest to use... built in nautifilus?
[09:51] <firecraft> _tux, i have a feeling we'll see wine in the coming months mature a great deal and not depend on Windows OS for gaming.
[09:51] <FusE-> eh
[09:51] <_tux> goodwinonline: it all depends some people might just want an OS for games, programming, modifying a kernel like the Linux kernel, or something completely different
[09:51] <michaelpo> goodwinonline: you install linuxchess
[09:51] <FusE-> Ubuntu won't automount my iPod, it used to.
[09:52] <goodwinonline> dont get me wrong i like ubuntu i just wish i could use it completely which would be run my games
[09:52] <preaction> in the last year i've noticed a lot more *nix-native games coming out
[09:52] <preaction> !games
[09:52] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[09:52] <VICZ> What is the command to open the quit menu / and or just quit / logout?
[09:52] <firecraft> preaction,  not only that but also that we'll have wine support directx.
[09:52] <preaction> wine already does support directx
[09:52] <_tux> I switched over to Ubuntu cause much of the stuff on Windows I didn't seem to use
[09:53] <_tux> and also experienced nothing but problems
[09:53] <firecraft> preaction, it does, but still not polished to the far edges to play some of the games i have on vista meh
[09:53] <preaction> its D3D support is lacking, and it's only at dx7 or so (last i knew)
[09:53] <ironmatar> i attempted manuel install of video driver however it said something wasent installed  lb somebthing?
[09:53] <Surger> My ext3 file system went a bit haywire and now every time I run apt-get it moans about broken packages. How do I re-install them? I tried apt-get install -f libmad0 but it says the package is already up to date.
[09:53] <_tux> also I love the open-source philosophy
[09:54] <CraZy675> !musicbrainz
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about musicbrainz - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <ironmatar>  need to run sudo ldconfig  or lbconfig?  is that the right command
[09:54] <Surger> goodwinonline: You can check out Cedega too if you're willing to pay a bit. http://games.cedega.com/gamesdb/
[09:54] <Menth> you can get cedega for free if you use the cvs version
[09:54] <pretender> i need to output the resauls of the top command (CPU Useage) to post on a forum.  How can i do this
[09:54] <firecraft> cedega isn't free btw.
[09:55] <goodwinonline> tremulous is about the coolest ubuntu game ive found
[09:55] <scipio> ironmatar, why not install the driver that's in the repos. or follow a guide from the wiki page
[09:55] <Surger> Menth: A new windows user + source code ...  :)
[09:55] <VICZ> help, what is the command to exit / logout of ubuntu? or at least open the menu to do so?
[09:55] <_tux> alright guys time for me to head too bed goodnite everyone and hopefully your issues have been solved ;-)
[09:55] <Menth> i figured it out and im new to linux wasnt to bad
[09:55] <preaction> VICZ, you don't have the menu anymore?
[09:56] <preaction> Menth, when it goes good, it's not bad at all. when it goes bad, then it's hell
[09:56] <Menth> true
[09:56] <VICZ> preaction -- i'm trying to get rid of the menu to replace it with a macos-like dock. (Avant-window-navigator)... I'm trying to add a "quit" menu to the dock, don't know which command to enter.
[09:56] <goodwinonline> surger thats the thing i dont want to pay ive payed 100's for my favorite ea games and my wifes cheap :) and im 38 too so eh i dont know:-!
[09:56] <Menth> i almost gave up twice :D
[09:56] <ubuntu> hey in ubuntu 5 . .
[09:56] <ubuntu> wht is password
[09:56] <ironmatar> because it wont be in rep until gutsy   iv been informed by somone that firsted helped me that teh gigbyte 8500 requires a full manuel install  however something sient configued for the file to run yet
[09:56] <ubuntu> for root
[09:56] <preaction> !enter | ubuntu
[09:56] <ubotu> ubuntu: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:56] <preaction> !root | ubuntu
[09:56] <ubotu> ubuntu: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:56] <goodwinonline> later tux you rock
[09:57] <Menth> just do sudo su
[09:57] <ubuntu> k thanks
[09:57] <ironmatar> i finnally have a stable updated ubuntu  n i really would love to get my game working
[09:57] <preaction> VICZ, theoretically, CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE does it, but that's the hard way
[09:57] <VICZ> preaction -- is that considered an actual reboot?
[09:57] <scipio> ironmatar, then maybe you should use pastebin to post your error and have someone take a look at it
[09:57] <preaction> VICZ, no, that shuts down X11
[09:57] <ubuntu> thanks.. menth
[09:58] <ubuntu> it worked
[09:58] <firecraft> VICZ you can try ~$ sudo reboot
[09:58] <VICZ> firecraft -- thanks again!!!!! you saved me last time
[09:58] <firecraft> rofl ok VICZ didn't know you were asking for reboot or just logout
[09:58] <scipio> VICZ, for reboot: sudo shutdown -r now
[09:59] <Menth> What game ironmatar?
[09:59] <firecraft> sudo shutdown -r now is like telling the OS shutdown then restart .. what's wrong with the similar command sudo reboot scipio ?
[09:59] <pretender>  i need to output the results of the top command (CPU Usage) to post on a forum.  How can i do this
[09:59] <scipio> firecraft, nothing didn't see your replied :)
[10:00] <firecraft> scipio ;)
[10:00] <michaelpo>    firecraft: ctrl-backspace
[10:00] <firecraft> michaelpo i like command lines better than hitting shortcuts :)
[10:01] <Menth> do you use a shortcut to open up the terminal ?
[10:01] <ubuntu> i am trying to install my grub .. but i am getting this error.. .grub-install /dev/hda
[10:01] <ubuntu> /dev/hda: Not found or not a block device.
[10:01] <Menth> /dev/sda ?
[10:02] <firecraft> Menth heh good question, that'd be clicking the console
[10:02] <ubuntu> its /dev/hda only. .
[10:02] <Menth> so you have a ide drive?
[10:02] <Menth> not a sata or scsi?
[10:02] <ubuntu> ya
[10:02] <Menth> k
[10:03] <scipio> pretender, "top > topreport" then hit q and open the topreport file with a text editor
[10:03] <ubuntu> but i hv windows on hda1 .. its file system is ntfs...
[10:03] <ubuntu> is it the problem
[10:03] <Tex-Twil_> hello
[10:03] <firecraft> hmm.. know what i think guys?
[10:03] <preaction> ubuntu, no. grub is installed in the MBR, which is "before" any partitions.
[10:04] <kele> hi,all
[10:04] <firecraft> ubuntu probably has a single drive and forgot to defrag the windows os.
[10:04] <ubuntu> means.. i didnt get
[10:04] <ironmatar> the error i gets is libc header files not installed  please install libc dev pkg for your distro
[10:04] <ubuntu> so wht shall i do know
[10:04] <Polysics> i have this new HD in an external USB enclosure which is not formatted. i'd like to, but i can't find the correct path to pass to mkfs
[10:04] <haka1> cwe_girll tulen lo!!!!
[10:04] <firecraft> ubuntu am i correct what i said?
[10:05] <ubuntu> iya....
[10:05] <ubuntu> ya..
[10:05] <ubuntu> its true
[10:05] <preaction> Polysics, it will probably be one of the /dev/sd* drives, otherwise plug it in and check "lsusb" or "dmesg" to see what node gets made for it
[10:06] <firecraft> ubuntu might as well defrag windows fist then install ubuntu otherwise ubuntu installer tends to mess up while allocating space from the shared windows os.
[10:06] <ironmatar> is sudo lbconfig the command i need to run before gdm stop?
[10:06] <preaction> ironmatar, did you apt-get install libc-dev ?
[10:06] <scipio> ironmatar, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:06] <Menth> sudo first!
[10:06] <preaction> ironmatar, for that matter, did you apt-get install build-essential?

[10:07] <preaction> ubuntu, no. bad.
[10:07] <firecraft> preaction how are you guys with other flavors of *nix ?
[10:07] <preaction> firecraft, that'd be off-topic in #ubuntu
[10:07] <firecraft> ahh
[10:07] <ironmatar> will build essental get everthing or do i need the lib-devs to?
[10:08] <preaction> but i'm fluent in Open/FreeBSD, and okay in some flavors of Red Hat
[10:08] <scipio> ironmatar, probably. get that and try again
[10:08] <preaction> ironmatar, apt-get install build-essential will tell you what packages it's going to install. if "libc-dev" isn't one of them, do it afterward
[10:08] <ironmatar> thanks
[10:09] <arun> is banshee significantly better than rhythmbox?

[10:09] <ubotu> arun: 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.
[10:09] <preaction> arun, freedom of choice. I prefer rhythmbox
[10:09] <arun> yeah, i know that. i'm just asking for opinions :)
[10:10] <arun> i'm not asking which one is absolutely better
[10:10] <firecraft> rhythbox was pretty crap at first, now with feisty i like that whole lot better.
[10:10] <preaction> arun, form your own opinion. run them both for a while

[10:56] <Bo1> paddy:let me check am dwonloading something right now
[10:56] <gronbaek> Yeah, I just tried changing KDE's sound system from "auto detect" to ALSA, and now it keeps restarting the sound system.

[11:09] <firecraft> ohh
[11:09] <firecraft> unics is on unix ?
[11:11] <Menth> wkbode65 well doh whats wrong is etc/X11/xorg.conf is where ubuntu reads what drivers to use and its still pointing to your old drivers
[11:11] <unics> hmm
[11:12] <Menth> so if you do cp etc/X11/xorg.conf etc/X11/xorg1.conf to back it up
[11:12] <unics> how can i see if my internet connection is working ?
[11:12] <Menth> then sudo nano etc/X11/xorg.conf you can read the file and edit it out and try to work out which one will work :D

[11:33] <sytner> i tried the tab thing but it says i already have the latest version
[11:33] <ziroday> Bo1: all do you want just your entire system?
[11:33] <sytner> which is wrong
[11:34] <EXP2> anyone know what is wrong with my ubuntu, when i press red power button system freezes.... mouse works but buttons or kb does not work....
[11:34] <Bo1> ziroday:yeah
[11:34] <ziroday> Bo1: sorry was that your entire system?
[11:35] <ziroday> Bo1: so do you want to backup your entire system?
[11:35] <Bo1> zirolday:first i want to back all profiles. then i want to back entire system.
[11:36] <ziroday> ok
[11:36] <Bo1> i mean program*
[11:36] <branstrom> How do I get totem-xine to play XViD? I have w32codecs...
[11:36] <ziroday> Bo1: well when you back up your entire system you will also back that up :)
[11:36] <ziroday> Bo1: is that okay?
[11:37] <ziroday> branstrom: you need a gstreamer package look for xvid in add/remove under Applications
[11:37] <Bo1> ziroday:can i make then different?
[11:38] <ziroday> Bo1: sorry what do you mean?
[11:38] <ziroday> Bo1: like chose which programs?
[11:39] <Menth> ok i just installed it sythner and i got v 0.91.1   just have to wait for the repository to get updated i guess
[11:39] <Bo1> ziroday:all programs.
[11:39] <branstrom> ziroday: but... I'm using totem-xine, not totem-gstreamer
[11:39] <ziroday> branstrom: : then look for a xine package :)
[11:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Bo1, what will you be storing your backups on?
[11:40] <branstrom> hm
[11:40] <ziroday> Bo1: okay well there is two ways to do that. There is "ghosting" which is copying your entire installation and "AptonCD" which will copy all your programs onto the cd
[11:41] <ziroday> Ghosting takes up alot of space
[11:41] <Bo1> ziroday:ghosting sounds good
[11:41] <medfly> how do i change mouse sensitivity to default? a game i tried to play set it to something else
[11:41] <sytner> menth: thanks i have trying to update for weeks and still get the old version
[11:41] <Menth> tryed sudo apt-get install clamav-getfiles   ?
[11:42] <sytner> menth: trying now
[11:42] <ziroday> Bo1: well the most well known program for that is "Norton Ghost" however there is also Partimage which is a free open source alternative
[11:43] <ziroday> Bo1: i reccomend Norton Ghost as it has good language support and is well known/supported and works very well
[11:43] <Menth> sytner: failing that you can use this guide to install it from source http://wiki.clamav.net/Main/UpgradeInstructions
[11:44] <Moniker42> where can i locate the 'ubuntu circle of friends' gdm theme image?
[11:44] <Moniker42> i was wanting to use it for a mock-up of something...
[11:45] <Bo1> ziroday:ok
[11:45] <ziroday> Bo1: so which one do you wnat to use - Norton Ghost or Partimage
[11:47] <roachmmflhyr> quick question: what purpose does /tmp/orbit-username serve?? Can I delete it? Because after I issue ps ax I find a whole lot of entries from there.
[11:47] <Bo1> ziroday:norton
[11:47] <tparcina> Ubuntu 7.04 for desktop computer is only 730 MB big?
[11:48] <ziroday> Bo1: you have to pay for norton however there are other sort of legal ways of getting it do you want me to help you with that
[11:48] <ziroday> tparcina: no thats the ISO size
[11:48] <roachmmflhyr> sorry correction its after i issue netstat -lp
[11:48] <Bo1> ziroday:yeah will you
[11:49] <ziroday> Bo1: please go to #getnorton on freenode :)
[11:51] <roachmmflhyr> Corrected:   What does /tmp/orbit-username serve?? Can I delete it? Because after I issue netstat -lp I find a whole lot of entries from there.
[11:52] <Menth> roachmmflhr: you could try renaming it and seeing what happens? and if breaks something just name it back
[11:53] <Menth> unless its the keyboard :D

[11:57] <f0rqu3> how do you find dependencies of a binary
[11:57] <f0rqu3> and command?
[11:58] <Abu_Hamza> f0rqu3: you have to have the package, then double-click it and it shows you any deps it might require
[11:58] <Abu_Hamza> f0rqu3: if you don't have the file.. google will probably tell you
[11:58] <f0rqu3> no I want to generate them from the binary
[11:59] <f0rqu3> maybe a gcc tool
[11:59] <Abu_Hamza> i see.. dunno about that
[12:00] <Sam_>  Atlantiz
[12:00] <nalpha> anyone know, why openoffice had long loading after I'm copyng soma part of website into the word prosessor? are the openoffice loading for the images downladed? but After wait several times it's still long loading if I'm scrollign? any clue?
[12:00] <Atlantiz> test
[12:00] <Abu_Hamza> f0rqu3: probably the devs at #ubuntu+1 would know
[12:00] <sipior> f0rqu3: you mean figure out which libraries a binary requires, if you only have the binary?
[12:01] <f0rqu3> yes
[12:01] <sipior> f0rqu3: ldd <binary>

[12:03] <f0rqu3> /tmp/ temporary files

[12:08] <mc44> HOLLOWMA_N: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[12:08] <nalpha> HOLLOWMA_N: As I Know there must be DHCP networks for ADSL Modme :)
[12:08] <f0rqu3> HOLLOWMA_N, DSL?
[12:08] <HOLLOWMA_N> mc44 i did try this but does'nt work
[12:09] <f0rqu3> you have a router?
[12:09] <HOLLOWMA_N> nalpha : no no DHCP
[12:09] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 connected from a fiber optic media converter
[12:09] <f0rqu3> o_O
[12:09] <scipio> Eviltronic, xchat is in the repos. you don't need to download any package. get it with synaptic or apt-get
[12:09] <f0rqu3> but you connect to a router?
[12:10] <HOLLOWMA_N> :(( n e solution :((
[12:10] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 i dont know exactly .. do have n e idea about windows :P so thak i can tell u what i do in windows then may be u can help me
[12:11] <Eviltronic> scipio: I'm kinda new to ubuntu. I tryed to use sudo apt-get but dependecies are missing.
[12:11] <scipio> Eviltronic, sudo apt-get install xchat?
[12:11] <f0rqu3> only thing I know is if you dont have DHCP you need to know your routers ip
[12:11] <Eviltronic> xchat: Depends: libdbus-1-2 (>= 0.60) but it is not installable
[12:12] <Eviltronic> scipio: Will "sudo apt-get install xchat" install xchat or xchat-gnome. I allready have xchat-gnome but i want to install xchat.
[12:12] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 when i connect in windows if i type ipconfig i can c my ip and other details
[12:12] <f0rqu3> what is your ip?
[12:13] <f0rqu3> 192.168.1.x ?
[12:13] <scipio> Eviltronic, i'm not 100% sure but i think xchat. to be 100% sure open synaptic and search xchat. first result is xchat and third is xchat-gnome. right click and install
[12:13] <SlimeyPete> HOLLOWMA_N: use "ifconfig" in Linux
[12:13] <Eviltronic> scipio: Ok. Thnx.
[12:13] <scipio> Eviltronic, you're welcome
[12:14] <Eviltronic> scipio: Let me get this clear... Synaptic is add/remove software or?

[12:25] <soa2ii> Hi... I am using Kubuntu but i think that doesn't matter here... I just started my PC and my keyboard is really weird... sometimes if i press a key the system prints a lot of chars from that key...
[12:25] <dencrypt> wow... I really love ubuntu
[12:25] <soa2ii> entering passwords became impossible
[12:26] <soa2ii> mouse and everything else is finde...
[12:26] <dencrypt> used win for 15 years, installed ubuntu yesterday and I will NEVER go back :D
[12:26] <Chousuke> heh
[12:26] <f0rqu3> dencrypt, lies
[12:26] <dencrypt> No I really don't :D
[12:26] <f0rqu3> did you use windows 1.1
[12:26] <soa2ii> the system is not slowy, too....
[12:26] <Chousuke> dencrypt: you may be forced to, though. :P
[12:26] <Chousuke> dencrypt: but let's hope not.
[12:26] <dencrypt> even irssi feals like home even though mIRC was a companion for many years
[12:27] <dencrypt> yeah
[12:27] <sarts> ... i would never get used to the time a dist-upgrade takes... :/
[12:27] <dencrypt> maybe
[12:27] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 i can tell u how do i set it up in windows :P :P
[12:27] <f0rqu3> tell me
[12:27] <dencrypt> f0rqu3: no.. but dos though...
[12:27] <soa2ii> noone an idea??
[12:28] <dencrypt> soa2ii: what charset do you use?
[12:28] <soa2ii> standard...
[12:28] <soa2ii> i think utf-8
[12:28] <theTrav> I've been watching some videos on my ubuntu box using totem video player lately, and the same files have a significant drop in quality compared to when I watch them on my windows box
[12:28] <theTrav> is this likely due to codecs? and if so, how do I make them better?
[12:29] <Chousuke> theTrav: is post-processing enabled in totem? :P
[12:29] <Yodude> hey can someone please helpo me with my mobile phone ?
[12:29] <Chousuke> you could use mplayer or vlc too.
[12:29] <sarts> does gutsy come with gtk 2.11?
[12:29] <Yodude> theTrav: VLC is gooooooooooooooooooood
[12:29] <soa2ii> dencrypt: and... some ideas?
[12:29] <theTrav> VLC is an alternative player?
[12:29] <dencrypt> soa2ii: what do LC_ALL= say when you do locale in terminal?
[12:29] <Chousuke> Yodude: I disagree, but it's adequate.
[12:29] <theTrav> does it require much in the way of configuration / codec installations?
[12:29] <Yodude> theTrav: yes
[12:29] <Chousuke> the best media player IMO is still mpc on windows :/
[12:30] <JediMaster> VLC is great
[12:30] <JediMaster> theTrav: no
[12:30] <dencrypt> yeah... VLC pwns
[12:30] <Chousuke> VLC doesn't even come close to mpc though :(
[12:30] <soa2ii> don't know... i cannot login and because this is a really fresh install i haven't set up ssh yet :/
[12:30] <Yodude> Chousuke: i would prefer simplicity, but not on the ost of power, like Totem not being able to display DVD menus
[12:30] <JediMaster> it comes with all the codecs
[12:30] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 n e clue ? :P
[12:30] <dencrypt> damn
[12:30] <Yodude> Chousuke: totem didn't even play DVD when i installed the codecs
[12:30] <dencrypt> I have to go to
[12:30] <Yodude> Chousuke: libdvdcss2 was nowhere to be found in the repos
[12:30] <Chousuke> Yodude: Well, totem is... Totem.
[12:31] <Chousuke> it's in multiverse I think
[12:31] <Chousuke> !info libdvdcss2
[12:31] <Yodude> i did a search
[12:31] <Chousuke> hmm
[12:31] <Yodude> found nothing
[12:31] <Yodude> on 2 ubuntu installations
[12:32] <Chousuke> apparently it's not there ./
[12:32] <SlimeyPete> tried libdvdread, Yodude ?
[12:32] <Yodude> Chousuke: but it really should, i mean cmon DVD's are essential on a computer. Ubuntu should be able to play thm ( in the default player i mean )
[12:33] <theTrav> ok, so I couldn't find anything about post processing on totem, tried briefly on VLC but no improvement
[12:33] <Yodude> SlimeyPete: I installed all those codecs they tell you about in the manual
[12:33] <Chousuke> Yodude: Well, tell that to the law makers :/
[12:33] <Chousuke> Yodude: libdvdcss is illegal in the US for example
[12:33] <HOLLOWMA_N> f0rqu3 :[
[12:33] <Yodude> Chousouke: no i know about the problem, but i think lawmakers are just with it being in the repo
[12:33] <SlimeyPete> Yodude: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/04/libdvdcss2-and-w32codecs-for-ubuntu/
[12:33] <Yodude> Chousuke: really ?!
[12:33] <Chousuke> yes.
[12:33] <Yodude> Chousuke: dam
[12:34] <Chousuke> AFAIK it's illegal to distribute and use tools that circumvent copy protection
[12:34] <CVirus> mkdir /home/ftp/test && ln -s /home/cvirus/foo/ /home/ftp/test/ ... the foo directory is still not accessible through the browser .. it gives error 550 failed to change directory
[12:34] <Yodude> Chousuke: anyway i'm happy playing my DVD's in VLC
[12:34] <Yodude> Chousuke: the important thing is that Ubuntu as a system can play them for u
[12:35] <Chousuke> though IANAL so what I say might be inaccurate.
[12:35] <perrito> hola
[12:35] <Chousuke> Yodude: well, it can, but unfortunately it can't be made default behaviour :/
[12:36] <perrito> hello
[12:36] <Yodude> Chousuke: hey btw even if i did install libdvdcss2, would I be able to see DVD menus in Totem, cuz i read somewhere that the whole totem library that does DVD menus is broke
[12:36] <Nyu1> Yo i have a prob sometime when ubuntu boot it stay freezed on file system seems mounted on read only something like that
[12:37] <Frogzoo> Yodude: gxine or vlc
[12:37] <Chousuke> Yodude: Well, then I suppose they should fix totem
[12:37] <Yodude> yeah
[12:37] <Yodude> hey other than that, i have a S60 based nokia cell phon
[12:37] <kauer> HOLLOWMA_N: So your Internet service provider gave you a fibre optic media converter, which you hook up to something - a socket in your house/room/dorm?
[12:38] <Yodude> and i'm looking for financial management and office fotware for it
[12:38] <Yodude> is there any FOSS apps like that for it ?>
[12:38] <theTrav> hmm... Xorg is ignoring my screen resolutions
[12:38] <theTrav> I'm trying to get it to show 1280 x 720 but it refuses to
[12:38] <Frogzoo> theTrav: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[12:38] <Paddy_EIRE> what is that update --alternatives command to choose your java runtime
[12:39] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: update-java-alternatives
[12:39] <Yodude> any suggestions ?
[12:39] <theTrav> what's that do Frogzoo?
[12:39] <Paddy_EIRE> kauer, sudo ?
[12:39] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: type update_ and press TAB for a bunch more...
[12:39] <Paddy_EIRE> ahh
[12:39] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: Er, yes.
[12:39] <Frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[12:40] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: NO, Frogzoo has misunderstood. Or I have.
[12:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Frogzoo, nice one
[12:40] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: java will change only the binary "java". update-java-alternatives will swap an entire java system out, like 1.5 for 1.6 or so.
[12:40] <Yodude> I'm looking for open source office apps and finance apps for the Symbian S60 3rd edition platform, can anyone help me ?
[12:40] <Yodude> i really wanna use opensource on my phone
[12:41] <kauer> Paddy_EIRE: If you really want to change only the runtime (the jre) then I think there's an update-alternatives link for that - java_vm, from memory.
[12:41] <theTrav> how do I know my video cards bus identifier?
[12:41] <kauer> HOLLOWMA_N: You still interested?>
[12:42] <Paddy_EIRE> kauer, no thats fine. thx anyway
[12:42] <Paddy_EIRE> :)
[12:42] <csc`> Morning
[12:42] <theTrav> I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and now it's asking for my video card bus identifier
[12:42] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??
[12:42] <theTrav> I don't know how to find the video card bus identifier
[12:43] <Frogzoo> theTrav: is there a default?
[12:43] <theTrav> PCI:3:0:0
[12:43] <theTrav> what does that mean? it doesn't look likely
[12:43] <Frogzoo> theTrav: chances are it's right
[12:44] <MeRodent> indicates that the card is in the third pci bus.
[12:44] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??
[12:44] <theTrav> ok
[12:44] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> theTrav: do an lspci to find the correct bus ID
[12:44] <theTrav> lspci?
[12:44] <SlimeyPete> just type "lspci"
[12:45] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??
[12:45] <theTrav> 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AR [Radeon 9600] 
[12:45] <theTrav> 03:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AR [Radeon 9600]  (Secondary)
[12:45] <theTrav> looks like it's in 3?
[12:45] <SlimeyPete> yeah, it's in 3.
[12:45] <theTrav> ok, here goes
[12:45] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??
[12:45] <jesSon_newbie> when i access my vps via putty after i made the connection am i root user in that remote computer??? do i install software on vps like how i install software in my ubuntu using the command like apt-get install ??

[12:46] <ubotu> jesSon_newbie: 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
[12:47] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: what is a vps?
[12:47] <jesSon_newbie> u dont know?
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: yes, you do.
[12:47] <jesSon_newbie> its a remote comupter
[12:47] <MeRodent> vpn?
[12:47] <ben_underscore> virtual private server
[12:47] <jesSon_newbie> where u can setup ur own server
[12:47] <jesSon_newbie> yes
[12:47] <jesSon_newbie> exactlu
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: if it's a debian-based VPS, you use apt-get
[12:47] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: it's best to be sure that YOU know ;-)
[12:48] <jesSon_newbie> wat are example of debian based linux ?
[12:48] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: ubuntu
[12:48] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: debian, ubuntu, mepis (I think?)
[12:48] <jesSon_newbie> so when i access it via putty am i a root user on my vps ?
[12:48] <SlimeyPete> if you logged in as root, yes
[12:48] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: well it depends - consult with your ISP
[12:48] <MeRodent> you could try a root task and it'll let you know if your not.
[12:48] <jesSon_newbie> well if it ask for pass then im root user ryt?
[12:48] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: or rather your VPS provider and see what they say
[12:49] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: not necessarily
[12:49] <jesSon_newbie> wat if the vps o/s is redhat do i use diff command? not apt-get ?
[12:49] <SlimeyPete> what username did you log in as, jesSon_newbie ?
[12:49] <jesSon_newbie> yah
[12:49] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: yes, different command on redhat. it's "yum".
[12:50] <jesSon_newbie> can u give me example of red hat command like installing software
[12:50] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: apt-get is debian / ubuntu specific. on redhat you use a package manager called yum, and you install packages, called rpms, with a command called rpm
[12:50] <ben_underscore> jesSon_newbie: su -c "yum install aptitude"
[12:51] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: try a redhat channel for better help with redhat.
[12:51] <SlimeyPete> this channel is meant for ubuntu support
[12:51] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: a well-managed virtual server will not be set up to allow remote logins as root. But once you are logged in as yourself, you can use sudo or su (depending on what the system is) to execute commands that need root access. One quick way to find out if you have sudo style root access is to execute (say) "sudo touch /blah". If after entering your password the file /blah is created, congratulations you have root access via sudo.
[12:51] <jesSon_newbie> anyway wat confuses me is that do i always intall using the terminal? after i install it there will it appear im my start menu??  how about mandriva is the command in it same as debian or ubuntu ?
[12:53] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: Start menu? You have graphics on your VPS?
[12:53] <aguslp> hi all
[12:53] <jesSon_newbie> no lol i mean in my ubuntu
[12:53] <theTrav> hmm, ok now I'm up to the video modes option, however the desired resolutions have not appeared
[12:53] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: well no, then. Your VPS is completely seperate from your PC.
[12:53] <theTrav> I require either 1920 x 1080 or 1280x720
[12:53] <aguslp> please help me to solve this problem: W: GPG error: http://10.1.0.100 feisty-security Release: Las siguientes firms fueron invlidas: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>
[12:54] <SlimeyPete> it's in aphyscally different location (probably a datacentre somewhere)
[12:54] <guardian> which software could i use to edit videos ?? like croping parts
[12:54] <theTrav> I have a 1080i display device and most of the resolutions listed will be munged
[12:54] <jesSon_newbie> pete is mandriva also a debian based are the command in mandriva same as ubuntu ??
[12:54] <Deathminder> hi all
[12:54] <aguslp> I don't know how to import this key from my repo
[12:54] <SlimeyPete> jesSon_newbie: I don't know. You're best off checking the Mandriva website.
[12:55] <Kou> ok, quick qyestion bout lm-sensors
[12:55] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: does the VPS provider have any tutorials? Maybe you should start there...
[12:55] <Kou> how do you run it?
[12:55] <theTrav> is X not capable of running 1080i resolution? or is this list just incomplete?
[12:55] <jesSon_newbie> none thats the problem and im also new to commands
[12:55] <theTrav> did I answer a question incorrectly?
[12:55] <MeRodent> X should have no problems with any resolutions.
[12:56] <aguslp> please help me to solve this problem: W: GPG error: http://10.1.0.100 feisty-security Release: Las siguientes firms fueron invlidas: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>  I don't know how to import this key from my repo
[12:56] <SlimeyPete> Kou: you don't, AFAIK. It's used by oher programs such as gkrellm.
[12:56] <theTrav> my video card is capable of outputting 1080i
[12:56] <MeRodent> It's getting X to recognise that they are available is the problem. :P
[12:56] <theTrav> or 720p
[12:56] <haka4> selia
[12:56] <Kou> ok,wel, I want to see the date for my pc, how do I lokit up?
[12:56] <Kou> data*
[12:57] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: The problem is that you are a bit too low on the learning curve at the moment to make good use of this forum. Do you have a clear idea of what, specifically, you want to do on your new VPS: If so, perhaps you could choose one element of that and work through it (seeking help here if needed), By the end of the process you should have a better idea about how stuff works.
[12:57] <aguslp> can anyone help me?
[12:57] <theTrav> I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and now it's asking me to pick from a list of resolutions, however my desired resolution is not there, nor is there a resolution of the same aspect ratio
[12:57] <Kou> aguslp: sec
[12:57] <ben_underscore> aguslp: what are you trying to do when you get the error?
[12:58] <Kou> aguslp: admin > soruces
[12:58] <theTrav> I want a 16:9
[12:58] <aguslp> apt-get update
[12:58] <Kou> ok,well, I want to see the data for my pc, how do I lookit up?
[12:58] <MeRodent> what graphics card?
[12:58] <jrib> Kou: what data?
[12:58] <jesSon_newbie> well i want to install a bot there and use the bot as channel operator in my gaming channel at b.net is that even possible bot on linux ...
[12:58] <Kou> jrib: thermal
[12:58] <jesSon_newbie> so im always 24//7
[12:58] <aguslp> I need solve by command line
[12:58] <jesSon_newbie> no need to turn my pc on 24//7
[12:59] <theTrav> MeRodent: are you asking me? I'm using an ATI Radeon 9600
[12:59] <aguslp> (30 pcs konsole conected)
[12:59] <Kou> jrib: to see how hot my pc is internally
[12:59] <MeRodent> yeah. What drivers?
[12:59] <theTrav> whatever ubuntu installed when I said "manage my drivers for me"
[01:00] <theTrav> how do i check?
[01:00] <MeRodent> give me a sec
[01:00] <theTrav> "Restricted Drivers Manager" is taking care of things for me
[01:00] <MeRodent> I know this may be overkill but it worked for me.
[01:00] <jrib> Kou: my laptop used to have /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/* stuff that would tell me.  Otherwise, you might need to install and setup lm-sensors and then either use the 'sensors' command or some frontend for sensors
[01:00] <kauer> jesSon_newbie: I know nothing of bots. Perhaps you could turn to the gaming community, I'm sure someone has done something like that before. Also, if your VPS is not ubuntu, you are rather in the wrong place here. There are subtle differences between distros that will confuse you (they won't confuse you once you start to get a handle on things, but right now they will confuse you).
[01:00] <pete_> hello, whats the command that will let me setup things like keyboard, screen ress I think it had something to do with GDM or X Org.  lol Sorry this is getting annoing spend hours looking for it
[01:01] <jrib> !xconfig > pete_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:01] <MeRodent> using the latest nvidia drivers automatically set up my 8800GTS with 1680x1050 res.
[01:01] <pete_> thanks
[01:02] <MeRodent> just got to find the user list on xchat and I'll send a list of instructions.
[01:02] <kauer> !xconfig > kauer (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:03] <MeRodent> brb
[01:05] <tim__b> I'm new to shell scripting and I have a Problem: I want to execute an command, if one or more directories exists in the directory the script is executed. but if [ -d */ ]  gives me the error, that an binary operator is expected: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35643/
[01:05] <MeRodent> theTrav: you still there?
[01:05] <Kou> jrib: pm ok?
[01:06] <jrib> Kou: here is better
[01:06] <Kou> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sensors
[01:06] <Kou> No sensors found!
[01:06] <Kou> Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
[01:06] <Kou> Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
[01:06] <Kou> but I alread probed
[01:06] <jrib> Kou: but use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for errors in the future
[01:06] <Kou> why doesn't it wok?
[01:07] <Kou> sorr, this is an important thing to me an I gotta go to bed soon
[01:07] <jrib> Kou: I never bother with lm-sensors, but pastebinning the output that you got from sensors-detect may help
[01:07] <Kou> !paste
[01:07] <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)
[01:07] <theTrav> hey, how do I restart X?
[01:07] <jrib> !sensors > Kou (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:07] <theTrav> ctrl alt backspace?
[01:07] <jrib> theTrav: ctrl-alt-backspace
[01:07] <theTrav> then will it automatically start again?
[01:07] <theTrav> or do I need to do something after that?
[01:08] <jrib> theTrav: yes, as long as you haven't killed gdm (or kdm or xdm)
[01:08] <kewl_> hallo i m not able to see network stats on gdesklet.....
[01:09] <cornell_work> I've got a small problem with my registration at the Ubuntu wiki, I want to change my user name.  Can anyone help?

[01:10] <DrMax_> yo all
[01:10] <DrMax_> what are the ubuntuesque alternatives to NFS ?
[01:11] <aguslp> :( don't work my apt-get update
[01:11] <grndslm> hey guys... i'm new to overclocking.  is there any way to determine what my cpu's actual clockrate is from within linux?  or some other way to determine how much actual speed increase i've gained?
[01:11] <sebbar_> hi, is there a way to rip a realplay stream?
[01:11] <jrib> Kou: coretemp probably isn't loaded now
[01:11] <ben_underscore> sebbar_: yes you can use mplayer
[01:11] <jrib> sebbar_: mplayer -dumpstream
[01:12] <Kou> how do I load it?
[01:12] <tarntow> Should i reinstall ubuntu if a program installed wont run...is there a way to fix this problem?
[01:12] <sebbar_> tnx
[01:12] <Frogzoo> tim__b: for x in * ; do  [ -d $x ]  && echo $x ; done
[01:12] <asc> grndslm: cat /proc/cpuinfo - but that will give you the current rate, so it might indicate low if CPU throtteling is enabled
[01:12] <jrib> Kou: sudo modprobe coretemp   or just reboot
[01:13] <ben_underscore> sebbar_: read this http://thomer.com/howtos/capture_realstream.html
[01:13] <grndslm> asc:  so if i OC successfully, will cpuinfo actually show the proper clock rate??
[01:13] <Kou> great..
[01:13] <Kou> celc...
[01:13] <ben_underscore> sebbar_: you can also convert real player into mp3 or ogg
[01:13] <asc> gmdslm: Only if you're using a lot of CPU at the time.
[01:13] <Kou> what's nomal for a CPu?
[01:13] <Carroarmato0> grndslm: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-find-out-linux-cpu-utilization.html
[01:14] <jrib> Kou: depends on the cpu
[01:14] <asc> grndslm: there's also a CPU frequency monitor applet for gnome-panel somewhere - if you use that and they run a program, it should go to the maximum frequency while launching it
[01:14] <Kou> it's about 500
[01:14] <Kou> Pent 2
[01:14] <Kou> maybe 3
[01:14] <jrib> your cpu isn't 500 celcius, something is wrong there
[01:14] <Kou> lol
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> jrib: mhz
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> silly ;p
[01:14] <Kou> Adapter: ISA adapter
[01:14] <Kou> Core 0:      +41C  (high =  +100C)
[01:15] <SlimeyPete> 40 degrees is fine.
[01:15] <Kou> and yes, I'm refering to 500mhz
[01:15] <SlimeyPete> if it hits 70 then you need to start worrying
[01:15] <Kou> mine's 1.86 GHz
[01:15] <nalpha> guys how to test network speed using ubuntu??
[01:15] <Kou> SlimeyPete: what should a 500mhz usually sit at?
[01:16] <SlimeyPete> Kou: it's been a while since I've used anything that old but 40 sounds reasonable.
[01:16] <joerlend> does anyone know if pinnacle's tv-cards works with linux?
[01:16] <Kou> or is 40 normal for al?
[01:16] <asc> nalpha: maximum speed, or like a process monitor?
[01:16] <nalpha> asc: both if can :D
[01:16] <asc> *bandwidth monitor
[01:16] <Kou> thanks SlimeyPete
[01:16] <Kou> that'll help ALOT
[01:16] <SlimeyPete> Kou: no problem
[01:16] <omgwtfbbq6> Hi, is there a way to tell ubuntu to stop mounting a drive (windows Fat32 partition) at startup?
[01:17] <asc> nalpha: bwm-ng is a bandwidth monitor. It's a command like program though. (but it's simple and works good)
[01:17] <Kou> my grandmother's pc keeps overheating
[01:17] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: put 'noauto' in your fstab
[01:17] <nalpha> asc : thanx alot...
[01:17] <asc> nalpha: For maximum speed, that + copying a file or using an online speed test :p
[01:17] <Kou> SlimeyPete: is there a sensor program that will run constantly?
[01:18] <sebbar_> ben_underscore: I have this link: http://webcast.berkeley.edu/stream.php?type=real&webcastid=17666 and it doesn't seem to work, do I need the link to the rm file?
[01:18] <Frogzoo> Kou: tell your grandmother not to overclock
[01:18] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: fstab? I've heard of it but how do I get to it (sry i'm teh windows haxor)
[01:18] <Kou> Frogzoo: shedoesn't
[01:18] <nalpha> asc: i want to test the speed betweeen my own network (using wireless bridge). :)
[01:18] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab      does it already list your fat32 partition?
[01:18] <Kou> Frogzoo: and that's rater rude of you to say, considering I MAINTAIN IT
[01:19] <nalpha> asc : seems bwm-ng just display my own ethernet card isn't?
[01:19] <SlimeyPete> Kou: try gkrellm, or one of the gnome desklets
[01:19] <asc> nalpha: Then copying a file to/from the remote computer should do it.
[01:19] <nalpha> hm..
[01:19] <nalpha> thanx.. alot....
[01:19] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: yea its lists it as sda1
[01:19] <grndslm> asc:  do you know how intel's throttling typically works?  like is it always 66% of max clock rate?
[01:20] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: where do I put "noauto"
[01:20] <Kou> SlimeyPete: wil the live cd work ok on 50mhz / 320mg ram?
[01:20] <tim__b> thanks Frogzoo, i fixed the directory problem :) do you know a way, to test if a certain file type exists in a directory? something like if [ -f *.ext ]  ?
[01:20] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: what is currently in the options column?
[01:20] <Kou> or will itbe a royal pain to use?
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> Kou: should work OK
[01:20] <asc> nalpha: Oh. If you have multiple interfaces you'll have to specify the one you want. like 'bwm-ng -I eth1' or whatever.
[01:20] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: defaults
[01:20] <Kou> SlimeyPete: I hope so..
[01:21] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: change "defaults" to "noauto" then
[01:21] <grndslm> asc:  also, do you know how accurate this gnome applet is?  it's just switches from 2GHz to 3GHz
[01:21] <Kou> I can't install ubuntuon the target pc
[01:21] <Kou> lol
[01:21] <asc> grndslm: Mine always sits at 2/3 except when being used, so that looks about right.
[01:21] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: Ah ok thanks a lot xD
[01:21] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: why don't you want it mounted by the way?
[01:21] <Polysics> do any visual tools for MySQL database design exist for linux?
[01:21] <Kou> wait..
[01:21] <Polysics> even one that simply reverse engineering an existing db would do
[01:21] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: it shows 10billion error atstartup
[01:22] <jrib> omgwtfbbq6: hmm, weird, but I guess that's a good reason
[01:22] <omgwtfbbq6> but windows isint complaining
[01:22] <Polysics> i'd like to make some diagrams to include with docs for some software i'm working on
[01:22] <Kou> why did synaptic not find anything but sensord?
[01:22] <nalpha> asc: okey.. it's help me, anyway If I want to monitor all of my network trafice in my office there is a program? with browser interface?
[01:22] <omgwtfbbq6> jrib: ok thanks again, i'll do a restart and see how it goes
[01:22] <asc> grndslm: Can't say for sure, I haven't used any others. Abrupt switches seems like a reasonable solution, though... not sure people would want to implement constant scaling.
[01:22] <jrib> Kou: have you enabled the universe repository?
[01:23] <SlimeyPete> Kou: you got universe & multiverse enabled?
[01:23] <Frogzoo> tim__b: what's wrong with that?
[01:23] <Kou> I have whatever is default in the gutsy Tribe 5 LiveCD
[01:23] <SlimeyPete> !universe | Kou
[01:23] <ubotu> Kou: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:23] <tim__b> Frogzoo, it always executes else instead of then
[01:23] <SlimeyPete> I doubt it's enabled by default
[01:23] <takamarou> hi, I'm trying to run ubuntu on a virtual machine, and its asking me for the .iso file.  I can't seem to find this in the folder that i extracted my ubuntu download to.  Does anyone know where I can find it?
[01:24] <asc> nalpha: I'm confident that there is, but I have no idea what its' name might be.
[01:24] <Kou> aything I can run in terminal to check?
[01:24] <SlimeyPete> takamarou: extracted? eh? You shouldn't need to extract the download
[01:24] <SlimeyPete> takamarou: did you download the ubuntu CD?
[01:24] <nalpha> asc: okey thanx
[01:24] <takamarou> SlimeyPete : oh... im retarded.. my bad
[01:24] <asc> grndslm: What CPU are you using, out of curiosity?
[01:25] <SlimeyPete> Kou: "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list". Check that the universe and multiverse lines are uncommented.
[01:25] <SlimeyPete> Kou: then run "sudo apt-get update" on you've uncommented and saved.
[01:26] <grndslm> asc:  Q6600
[01:26] <Frogzoo> tim__b: [ -f "*.ext' ]  && do stuff ;
[01:27] <humbolto> does anyone here use hyperic HQ?
[01:27] <Frogzoo> tim__b: or - for x in *.ext ; do  [ -f $x ]  && echo $x ; done
[01:27] <asc> Mehe, lucky bugger. Been thinking about getting one of them, but I haven't been having many slowdowns with E6600.
[01:27] <tim__b> Frogzoo, sorry my fault, i switched to lines, which made my script test if files exists in the wrong directory
[01:27] <tim__b> Frogzoo, thanks!
[01:28] <p0uttu> Hey, could some1 please give me a hint about some page that could help in setting up my tv-card? (cinergy 1200 DVB-C) :)

[01:28] <ubotu> p0uttu: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out

[01:28] <p0uttu> thanks =)
[01:29] <Kou> then sudo apt-get install ksensors or something?
[01:29] <asc> Out of curiosity, are you using a different cooling system, or what came with the processor? I think I saw where somebody's OCd to 3 with the default fan and didn't have any problems.
[01:31] <Kou> SlimeyPete: E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[01:31] <Kou> nvm, dumb mistake
[01:31] <grndslm> asc:  yea, i'm using Zalman CNPS7700... supposedly autoclocking is working at 3GHz, but I barely pushed FSB up... so it could prolly make it to 3.2GHz.  between the G0 stepping version of the processor and the Zalman, I used to see idle temps at around 32C w/ load at around 35C... now it's approx 2 degrees higher after OCing a tad
[01:31] <teKnofreak> Kou, used sudo ?
[01:32] <Kou> teKnofreak: I'm in root
[01:32] <AndrewB> Are you running updates or anything else?
[01:32] <Kou> teKnofreak: I'm on the live CD so I'm staying on root
[01:32] <misnomer> i wanted to install ubuntu, my keyboard works just fine under XP and right before ubuntu boots into X, but once im in X keyboard stops working
[01:32] <Kou> but I have synaptic open
[01:32] <Kou> lol
[01:32] <misnomer> and i cant complete an install without it
[01:33] <asc> grndslm: Righto, thanks.
[01:33] <misnomer> any ideas?
[01:34] <DrMax_> misnomer : is it special in any way ?
[01:34] <DrMax_> bluetooth ?
[01:34] <misnomer> no, i have a bluetooth mouse that works fine, the keyboard is generic brand, PS/2
[01:35] <Kou> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[01:35] <misnomer> i mean it works at the screen were it says install, check disc, etc.
[01:35] <Krussy> Hi, newbie to ubuntu here, was wondering if it were at all possible to get LaTeX and something like TeXcenter for ubuntu?
[01:35] <misnomer> just when it enters X it stops
[01:36] <mattyv> Krussy: yep, there are many, many LaTex packages
[01:36] <mattyv> Krussy: Are you in Ubuntu at the moment?
[01:37] <Krussy> mattyv i've read about tetex but i was under the impression that it was for unix
[01:37] <Krussy> no unfortunately i am not
[01:37] <Kou> SlimeyPete: you there?
[01:39] <mattyv> Krussy: That's ok. When you're in Ubuntu, simply go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager, do a search by name for texlive and have a look for what you need.
[01:40] <Krussy> mattyv you recommend texlive?
[01:40] <Fivetwentysix> Ok
[01:40] <Fivetwentysix> i've been trying to install ubuntu all day
[01:40] <Fivetwentysix> sorry i mean get it to work
[01:40] <Fivetwentysix> and haven't had any luck
[01:41] <Fivetwentysix> Anyone think they could help me out?
[01:41] <asc> Fivetwentysix: It breaks at what point?
[01:41] <Fivetwentysix> Ubuntu is fine i suppose
[01:41] <mattyv> Krussy: texlive is the current maintained version, it has a LaTeX extension to go with it. I'm a bit of a *TeX noob though and am still learning it
[01:41] <Fivetwentysix> Only problem I can't see anything
[01:41] <Fivetwentysix> Not even a console
[01:41] <Fivetwentysix> i cant even tell if it loads right
[01:41] <DrMax_> misnomer : when you ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, did it detected the right type of keyboard ?
[01:42] <Fivetwentysix> Yes.
[01:42] <cornell_work> How about... how to find an admin contact for the wiki?
[01:42] <misnomer> DrMax_: ? i never did that
[01:42] <asc> Fivetwentysix: are you on a second computer, and can work on the computer running ubuntu?
[01:42] <misnomer> i'm using the install/live cd
[01:42] <Krussy> mattyv I see, in windows, I had to grab MikTex and TexCenter separately so I was wondering what I had to get for Ubuntu
[01:42] <Fivetwentysix> No asc i'm on my main computer
[01:42] <DrMax_> misnomer : ok, then in gnome (if you're using gnome rather than KDE), does the keyboard properties show the right values ?
[01:42] <Krussy> mattyv also had to get ghost for post scripts and all that other jazz
[01:42] <DrMax_> misnomer : in system->preference->keyboard
[01:42] <misnomer> i'm not sure what the right keyboard is the right value.. it reports it as GENERIC IBM 105 or something
[01:43] <Fivetwentysix> My computer specs are: q6600 intel quad core, 4gb ram 666mhz, 8800gts, 22" samsung
[01:43] <misnomer> err.. im not sure what the right value is i mean
[01:43] <misnomer> i do know it works fine if i install fedora, i did it before
[01:43] <Fivetwentysix> Everything performs and works correctly in Vista
[01:43] <Fivetwentysix> I can
[01:43] <Fivetwentysix> Run in safe mode in ubuntu
[01:43] <DrMax_> misnomer : ok, we know your keyboard works, we just have to find out where there's a misconfiguration
[01:43] <Fivetwentysix> I can even startx and get into something that looks like gnome
[01:44] <misnomer> it doesn't even look like it's 'alive' num/caps light go off automatically when it boots X
[01:44] <Fivetwentysix> But nothing I can do in recovery mode seems to help me get Ubuntu working normally
[01:44] <misnomer> DrMax_: well, i gotta run, i'll try the text-based installer
[01:44] <asc> Fivetwentysix: Okay. Uh, let's see. You probably need to hit control-alt-F1 to get to a console. Then run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'. Select the vesa driver (graphics acceleration will be disabled, but you can reconfigure it at your leisure once you know how). Then run 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[01:44] <mattyv> Krussy: there are literally dozens of extra font sets, styles etc easily installable from within Ubuntu. Just install the "texlive" package and it will start you out with recommended fonts and a base system, add to it from there as you need
[01:44] <DrMax_> misnomer : in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:44] <asc> Fivetwentysix: Give me a second and I can probably find the right driver
[01:44] <DrMax_> misnomer : do you have an "InputDevice" entry for your keyboard ?
[01:44] <Fivetwentysix> asc: but I can't get into console
[01:45] <misnomer> didn't check, and the PC isn't booted anymore and i have to go.. i'll try looking at that later
[01:45] <DrMax_> ok
[01:45] <DrMax_> good luck ;)
[01:45] <asc> Fivetwentysix: control-alt-F1 doesn't work? That's, hm, not something I've run into before.
[01:45] <Fivetwentysix> no
[01:45] <Fivetwentysix> i mean
[01:45] <Fivetwentysix> I can't see it
[01:45] <Fivetwentysix> I have no idea if it works or not
[01:45] <Kou> SlimeyPete and jrib: Thanks for your help
[01:45] <Fivetwentysix> my screen is comepletely black
[01:46] <Fivetwentysix> once ubuntu starts loading
[01:46] <CraZy675> k3b: error while loading shared libraries: libk3bdevice.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:46] <Krussy> mattyv that hopefully means that everything will be in one package ready to go :)
[01:46] <asc> Fivetwentysix: What's the last thing you see? Is there an orange loading bar at any point?
[01:46] <Fivetwentysix> just before the orange loading bar
[01:46] <Fivetwentysix> i dont get to see the loading screen
[01:46] <Fivetwentysix> i dont even think it has anything to do with x
[01:47] <asc> Yeah, probably not.
[01:47] <Fivetwentysix> Asc: This problem also occured with the livecd
[01:47] <Fivetwentysix> But on the livecd there's a function where u press f4
[01:47] <asc> Tried plugging in a different monitor? ;p
[01:47] <Fivetwentysix> and u can change the resolution
[01:47] <mattyv> Krussy: Hopefully, if not, there's texlive-fonts-extra and things like that to add the bits you need. Just checked, a complete install (all extras etc) takes >1GB of space! Seems there's plenty available :)
[01:47] <Fivetwentysix> Yeah asc.
[01:47] <Fivetwentysix> Tried my viewsonic vx922
[01:48] <Fivetwentysix> Somehow I need this function where u can change the startup resolution
[01:48] <jrib> !enter | Fivetwentysix
[01:48] <ubotu> Fivetwentysix: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:48] <bullgard4> Is the 'kernel command line' the line "kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic root=UUID=7b2db282-52a4-4a4b-b1db-032334575de7 ro quiet splash vga=0x0361" in /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[01:48] <asc> Is at least one of them non-widescreen?
[01:48] <Fivetwentysix> yes
[01:49] <Krussy> mattyv hahaha that's huge. my miktex installer was only 45mb... and texcenter was 4.66.. looks like it has loads of extras piled on
[01:49] <Avec> i have install nvidia-glx driver i have (fx5950ultra) and my screen support 1024-768 resolution at 85 hz but with nvidia-glx its 50 hz.i have change the xorg  vertrefresh but nothing
[01:50] <asc> I have no idea what's wrong, but one thing I would try is editing the GRUB settings when you boot and removing 'quiet splash' from the kernel line.
[01:50] <mattyv> Krussy: Yep, I've installed a total of about 150mb with my LaTeX setup. Some is probably overkill but I was trying to workout some APA formatting stuff
[01:50] <jrib> Krussy: you also want some kind of frontend to write the latex in, might want to checkout vim-latexsuite, winefish, and kile or just search for 'latex' in the package manager and try them all
[01:50] <Fivetwentysix> asc I fixed the live cd just by using the f4 resolution function
[01:51] <Fivetwentysix> Is there any commands I can type in - in grub that does the same thing?
[01:51] <Krussy> jrib and mattyv yeah i read about kile, but that is for KDE? >.< i'm not really understading the whole gnome vs kde deal
[01:51] <asc> Fivetwentysix: I really wish I knew, I've been looking for something like that forever. ;p
[01:51] <jrib> Krussy: you can use kde apps in gnome and gnome apps in kde, it just means you have to load some extra libraries
[01:52] <Fivetwentysix> jrib got a clue? you seem to be the expert here...
[01:52] <Krussy> jrib i see, there were screen shots available for kile which looked pretty similar to texcenter so i think i'll give that a try. (didn't enjoy lyx for windows at all >.<)
[01:52] <mattyv> Krussy: I'm using one called Texmaker, seems good. KDE app but as jrib said that's not a problem
[01:52] <asc> Fivetwentysix: This links turns up, but who knows it it would work at all: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=578046
[01:52] <jrib> Fivetwentysix: what's the issue?
[01:53] <Fivetwentysix> Well my problem started with the live-cd, when I started Ubuntu, I get a black screen, not even a loading screen, but I could here my hard disk and cd drive working.
[01:53] <Krussy> mattyv great, also, when you do your APA reference, are you using something like endnote? I know endnote works well with microsoft word, but when I use TeX, I go with Jabref
[01:54] <jrib> Fivetwentysix: what video card? and did you manage to install ubuntu to your hard drive already?
[01:54] <Krussy> mattyv and use bibtex to do referencing
[01:54] <Fivetwentysix> But never mind, after a few trial and errors, I found a solution by simply pressing f4 on the live cd options and changing the boot up resolution and everytthing worked, I could see the load screen, and see gnome and everything.
[01:55] <Fivetwentysix> However, grub doesn't have that feature and when I start gnome, it doesn't work; however in recovery mode I can manage to get into console and even startx. But I can't access the internet, or anything and find my self clueless as what to do.
[01:55] <Fivetwentysix> I'm using 8800gts, q6600 intel quad core @2.6, 4gb 667mhz ram
[01:55] <manchicken> Anybody heard anything about bug #93360 yet?
[01:55] <manchicken> An issue with dhcdbd not working properly
[01:56] <mattyv> Krussy: Haven't written an apa style paper since I started learning Tex so no, haven't look into endnote like progs. A quick search in Synaptic shows a few reference managers fro bibtex though
[01:56] <Ziroda1> manchicken: check the bug report
[01:56] <Krussy> mattyv: ya bibtex is java so it 'should' run on most things *fingers crossed*
[01:56] <jrib> Fivetwentysix: ctrl-alt-f1 doesn't get you to a terminal?
[01:56] <kitche> manchicken, it's still undecided on the importance and not assigned to anyone
[01:56] <Krussy> mattyv: ah apologies >.< meant to say jabref
[01:57] <Turazoor> hey all, i'm trying to get my Belkin 54g USB Adaptor setup on kubuntu 7.04, however wen i plug it in it lags the system out, but if i boot on to the live cd then it doesn't lag it out... as far as i can find the only thing different is the bus number in lsusb
[01:57] <manchicken> kitche: Figured that one out :)
[01:57] <mattyv> Krussy: Yep, jabref is one of them
[01:57] <begenxboys> irc.plasa.com
[01:58] <mattyv> Krussy: Installing it will be a simple point & click job
[01:58] <Fivetwentysix> jrib: it does in recovery mode.
[01:58] <Fivetwentysix> jrib: However I have no idea if it does in regular more, like i said, I'm looking at a black screen.
[01:59] <jrib> Fivetwentysix: erm, ok.  What if you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and get rid of the 'quiet splash' options for your kernel and then reboot and try the normal boot again
[02:00] <Krussy> mattyv: I see, I have followed the thread in the ubuntu forums that provided a quick crash course on the complete guide to installation (by starcraftman) and followed how to install packages, I guess it's time to really put it into practice
[02:00] <Pici> jrib: Are the 8800 supported now in Feisty?
[02:00] <Fivetwentysix> Alright
[02:00] <MeRodent> Pichi: I'm running one here.
[02:00] <Fivetwentysix> I'll reboot now
[02:00] <jrib> Pici: wasn't aware of any issues, does it not work with nv either?
[02:01] <mattyv> Krussy: That's the best way to learn. My Tex journey started a few months back but I got sidetracked by other things. Was hoping to learn it before I went back to uni, but I might have an extra year to learn it now...
[02:01] <Pici> jrib: I'm looking at something on answers.ubuntu.com asked on 6/27 that leads me to believe that its only supported with nvidia binary beta drivers.
[02:01] <Pici> jrib: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/8866
[02:02] <eskargot> hi
[02:02] <Krussy> mattyv: ah latex isn't that bad, think of it as like html coding :) it's just frustrating when something doesn't 'k'ompile
[02:03] <mattyv> Krussy: lol, indeed
[02:03] <Krussy> mattyv: XD thanks for your help! and jrib also!
[02:03] <jrib> Pici: yeah, that might be related, link fivetwentysix when he returns
[02:04] <eskargot> i have an internal audio card
[02:04] <eskargot> i can hear mi music
[02:04] <mattyv> Krussy: any time
[02:04] <eskargot> but not sound of videos in you tube for example
[02:07] <oranye1> arif
[02:10] <Turazoor> hey all, i'm trying to get my Belkin 54g USB Adaptor setup on kubuntu 7.04, however wen i plug it in it lags the system out, but if i boot on to the live cd then it doesn't lag it out... as far as i can find the only thing different is the bus number in lsusb
[02:11] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: do you have an idea about the chipset?
[02:11] <Turazoor> sort of... i think it's possibly Zydas
[02:12] <moDumass> hmm, just installed compiz-fusion and now all is mashed
[02:12] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: does it say so in lsusb?
[02:13] <Turazoor> Carroarmato0: the device appears in the lsusb list under Bus 004, howver if i boot into my hd copy of linux, it places it on bus 005 and lags out
[02:13] <madera> Hey everyone.
[02:14] <madera> I want to use Ubuntu for my server, but I want all the nice GUIs I can have for configuring it. I'
[02:14] <madera> I'm tired of configuring stuff by hand. Should I use Server + install something or use Desktop directly?
[02:14] <Turazoor> Carroarmato0: Sorry, nope it's Ralink
[02:15] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: thought so....
[02:15] <VoX> madera: install the desktop version
[02:15] <Turazoor> Carroarmato0: .....i'm hoping u know what to do, I will love u forever lol
[02:15] <Turazoor> it's driving me crazy
[02:15] <Pici> madera: or install Server and install the ubuntu-desktop metapackage afterwards
[02:15] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: I have an Asus Usb wireless card that is also based on the Ralink chipset..
[02:16] <Ford> Hello ... first time for me here
[02:16] <Turazoor> ah ha! awesome, did u have similiar problems?
[02:16] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: They are mostly flaky in Feisty... and only work with Wep authentication
[02:16] <Turazoor> kk....
[02:16] <madera> What would be the diff between the two options? What about security?
[02:16] <VoX> madera: no difference in security
[02:17] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: But as a bug hunter for Gutsy I can say that the newer kernel have enhanced support for the Ralink chipset
[02:17] <VoX> madera: the server version is the same as the desktop, without the GUI
[02:17] <Ford> i need some help with sound + ubuntu linux 7.04 64 bit
[02:17] <gnuskool> madera, use the text version and login using webmin
[02:17] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: I already tested mine and is a lot stable
[02:17] <Turazoor> cool.... do u know how i can get it to load it onto bus 004 on my main copy of ubuntu then
[02:17] <madera> gnuskool: good point...
[02:17] <Pici> !webmin | gnuskool  madera
[02:17] <ubotu> gnuskool  madera: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system
[02:18] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: I have no idea how to force it into another bus...
[02:18] <Turazoor> ahhhhh... lol!
[02:18] <madera> I really can't take it anymore... I've been configuring things by hand ever since I started Linuxing... I need to stop and relax!!
[02:18] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: But I think you don't have to force that
[02:18] <Turazoor> k
[02:18] <fivetwentysix> Woo, it worked!
[02:19] <Pici> fivetwentysix: really?
[02:19] <madera> Pici: What would you do in my place? We are talking about a development server for our business.
[02:19] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: support for now in Feisty is flaky... wait for Gutsy to come out... or you can test it out if it works on the live cd of Gutsy tribe 5
[02:19] <madera> Subversion, twiki, and some other stuff
[02:19] <virg_ul> hi. i had this error after instlling ubuntu "failed to start x server. it is ikely that is not set up corectly"
[02:19] <fivetwentysix> jrib it worked it worked! getting rid of quiet splash did it!
[02:19] <Eldara> Umm anyone know how to find where wine installs stuff?
[02:19] <gnuskool> madera, there is a way using ssh tunneling, but i'll have to look it up
[02:19] <madera> I just want GUIs. It's what I want.
[02:19] <Turazoor> kk.... being a newbie to linux, i'm just check that Gutsy tribe 5 is another OS right
[02:19] <fivetwentysix> Yeah pici, who would of guessed such a little change can solve the biggest problems
[02:19] <madera> Though I know my internals well.
[02:19] <Turazoor> **** distro
[02:20] <Pici> madera: Okay, so install the  ubuntu-desktop package. Thats all the stuff thats normally on the desktop install.
[02:20] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: Gustsy is the follower of Feisty :)
[02:20] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: It will be ready for prime time in October
[02:20] <Turazoor> does it operate/look the same?
[02:20] <tego> how to convert out.ogg and what to install to show it like viedo?
[02:21] <madera> Ok, will do. I'm leaving Gentoo in favor of Ubuntu. I hope I don't regret it.
[02:21] <jrib> fivetwentysix: something usplash related then.  If you want the pretty progress bar when you boot you can search around for people with a similar issue.  Check the /etc/usplash.conf has a sensible resolution too
[02:21] <Pici> Turazoor: Yes, but its buggy, and if you arent ready to deal with bugs, then I really suggest you stick with Feisty.
[02:21] <wayoutthere> Is there a version of Ubuntu that doesnt contain a desktop? I would like to just install a basic system and add X and my own choice of desktop
[02:21] <gnuskool> madera, if you have another pc, read up on tunneling X over ssh, you'll have gui
[02:21] <fivetwentysix> the resolution is 1024 x 768
[02:22] <madera> We use VMware Server images
[02:22] <fivetwentysix> i don't see what's wrong with that.
[02:22] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: Try out Tribe 5 only on live cd... don't install it unless you know what you are doing because it's a developpers version and buggy
[02:22] <madera> I created an Ubuntu Server installation. Now I am apt-getting ubuntu-desktop
[02:22] <gnuskool> madera, on a production server stop gdm whenever the server is live
[02:22] <Turazoor> so......... errr.... what do i do? is there a way of getting kubuntu to stop lagging...?.... i.e. getting it to accept the usb onto Bus 4?
[02:23] <Slart> wayoutthere: have you checked out the server edition?
[02:23] <wayoutthere> Slart: I have not. I figured that it would install well server programs that I dont need like Apache2
[02:23] <madera> gnuskool: What made us switch was the fact of WASTING 12+ hours trying to configure TWiki. We know our other programs well, but after MacOS proved that everything can be friendly (and Ubuntu following the same path) we figured we dont ever want to see a configuration file again.
[02:23] <Pici> wayoutthere: The server and minimal install discs dont include x.
[02:23] <madera> gnuskool: excellent remark
[02:24] <Turazoor> Carroarmato0: thats the point although i am a genius when it come s to the horrible world of windows, i dont know many of the terminal commands etc in linux
[02:24] <wayoutthere> Pici: Is it easy to apt-get X ??
[02:24] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: I'd just wait for Gutsy to come out...
[02:24] <Slart> wayoutthere: I have no idea.. I haven't used it myself.. but it's the only version of ubuntu that I could think of that might not contain X
[02:24] <wayoutthere> Slart: Yeah I see.
[02:25] <Enul> hello
[02:25] <Pici> wayoutthere: What desktop environment are you thinking of using? There are few meta packages that make it really easy to get them and everything else needed.

[02:26] <Pici> 1
[02:26] <Carroarmato0> Turazoor: Try asking on the #kubuntu channel... they might help you better

[02:30] <fivetwentysix> Most software that can be downloaded for ubuntu can be installed there.
[02:30] <fivetwentysix> Make sure you click reload to update the list.
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Turazoor: Try Ubuntu live
[02:31] <Turazoor> Jack_Sparrow: where do i find that
[02:31] <py_> hello
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !download
[02:31] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[02:31] <Enul> thanks again :)
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Turazoor: Sorry we cant help much with a KDE app
[02:31] <z0rz> Could someone explain the different repositories for me and what each one is for ... like How would I know that I need universe repositories for the NTFS Configuration Tool
[02:31] <Turazoor> Jack_Sparrow: so where do i get help with a KDE app?
[02:32] <py_> how can I change the uuid of a swap partition? It can be done with tune2fs and reiserfstune for other kind of partitions, but haven't found a way for swap...
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Turazoor: Kubuntu would be the first place kde or the specific app site
[02:32] <Enul> i'm curious about something... i already downloaded the firefox 2.0.0.6.tar.gz but now its downloading again?
[02:33] <Turazoor> Jack_Sparrow: kk made the post but they dint reply earlier.. all to lazy lol !
[02:33] <erUSUL> !repos | z0rz
[02:33] <ubotu> z0rz: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:33] <Turazoor> cheers] 
[02:33] <asc> How might I enable shiny colors in ttys? While booting, for example.
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: Did you download the first from the web.. and now using a package manager to get it from the repo?
[02:33] <erUSUL> z0rz: just enable all of them it will do no harm
[02:34] <Enul> yes
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Turazoor: It is still a bit early for some of them and too late for the europeans..
[02:34] <swiftnomad> Hello. I installed compiz fusion on ubuntu gnome 7.04 && my title bars are gone.. I have a nvidia gfx card
[02:35] <swiftnomad> http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-58113.shtml
[02:35] <swiftnomad> I followed that installation
[02:35] <SlimeyPete> swiftnomad: make sure emerald is running.
[02:35] <kitche> swiftnomad, #ubuntu-effects
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> swiftnomad: See #Ubuntu-effects
[02:35] <asc> swift: You can probably fix that by disabling compiz. I have the same problem.
[02:35] <swiftnomad> how do you disable compiz ??
[02:36] <Enul> i downloaded the tar.gz file from the web but when i ran sudo apt-get install firefox it started downloading it agian
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: Right... but the package manager will also install it for you
[02:36] <fivetwentysix> Enul: If you want to install something, check the repositries first.
[02:37] <fivetwentysix> Enul: Goto System>Administrator>Synaptic Package Manager
[02:37] <Enul> ok.. how do i do that?
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: Question is... were you trying to get a later version?
[02:37] <asc> swiftnomad: I think I installed something that puts a little icon on the taskbar which you can change things from. Uh, hmm.
[02:38] <swiftnomad> and I did run & install emerald also. and in my applications>system tools> I get Beryl as my windows manager not compiz fusion.
[02:38] <Enul> yes i was.. i wanted to upgrage to the latest version of firefox
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: Any particular reason.. other than it is newer...
[02:38] <swiftnomad> but I dont know how to do any of that.
[02:38] <swiftnomad> I just read tuts. =/
[02:39] <asc> Somebody suggest a tool for monitoring things such as CPU temperature?
[02:39] <bullgard4> Is the 'kernel command line' the line "kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic root=UUID=7b2db282-52a4-4a4b-b1db-032334575de7 ro quiet splash vga=0x0361" in /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[02:39] <Enul> i just like to be up to date on software.. you never know what has been changed or fixed
[02:39] <jrib> Enul, Jack_Sparrow: 2.0.0.6 is in feisty-security
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: thanks..
[02:39] <fivetwentysix> Enul why don't you update your machine then?
[02:39] <bullgard4> asc: Gnome sensors applet
[02:39] <Enul> thanks
[02:40] <flake> can asterisk (pbx) handle phone queues
[02:40] <fivetwentysix> It'll update all your software too.
[02:40] <jrib> Enul: in ubuntu, you don't worry about keeping up to date, you let the package manager do that stuff
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: The package manager will be getting 2.0.0.6 per jrib... whom we trust
[02:40] <gilster> i have a quick question regarding automatic monitor sleep mode. Can i have the monitor actually turned off and not sleep mode?
[02:40] <Stormx2> http://pastebin.ca/675711 <-- Could some one take a look at this? I'm running gutsy, but I'm not sure if it is gutsy-specific.
[02:40] <Enul> because i'm on dialup and it would take 1d 21hr 37m to download all the updates so i have tp pick and choose
[02:40] <flake> ok then.. for asterisk, do i need any special telephony equipment
[02:40] <fivetwentysix> Hmm, a dial up user.
[02:41] <asc> bullgard4: Thanks.
[02:41] <fivetwentysix> That's rare!
[02:41] <swiftnomad> So how do I disable compiz ??
[02:41] <kitche> flake, not really unless your usign a landline
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: Much better to let the package manager install and update than trying to do it yourself
[02:41] <MeRodent> dial up? What's that. :P
[02:41] <Enul> ah
[02:41] <fivetwentysix> Enul a 56k isn't meant for linux.
[02:41] <gilster> hello. How do i get the monitor to auto-turn off instead of go to sleep mode.?
[02:42] <Frogzoo> fivetwentysix: sure it is, just not for ubuntu
[02:42] <Enul> lol 56k isnt ment for anything these days but where i live its all i can get
[02:42] <asc> Linux works fine on 56K. Just don't enable auto updates or anything.
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: If you have a friend running the same version of ubuntu... burn a copy of his var/cache/apt/archives and move it to your system..
[02:43] <swiftnomad> So does anyone know how to disable compiz ???
[02:43] <poh> I am currently running debian etch, and would like to install ubuntu. can I set it to use my current home partition during the installation? I don't want to back everything up.
[02:43] <Enul> i do but he lives about 1000 miles away
[02:43] <Frogzoo> poh: manual partitioning
[02:43] <CokeNCode> hey, good morning guys.
[02:43] <gnuskool> Enul, 56K is fine. hvae him burn n post it hehe
[02:44] <Enul> lol
[02:44] <BlueParrot> poh: I did that. Depending on what desktop nevironment you use, and what settings you have you may need to tweak some of it afterwards
[02:44] <fivetwentysix> 56k = bad
[02:44] <CokeNCode> quick question ... i'm logged into my box via ssh ... can i get a gui program to run ... on my pc at home ... like say qtorrent
[02:44] <c0_sby_2007> cok
[02:44] <CokeNCode> through this ssh connection ?
[02:44] <fivetwentysix> 56k user = evil person
[02:44] <poh> BlueParrot: thanks
[02:45] <BlueParrot> poh: actually, my home directory has gone from ubuntu->fedora->Debian->ubuntu and is still going strong :P
[02:45] <Enul> i do plan to upgrade to something faster soon,, i'm hoping to get a satalite connection but its expensive
[02:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Enul: My var/cache/apt/archives has about 200 meg in it... that would be death by dial-up... have him post you a copy.
[02:45] <veki> hello,  I have Breez Badger and during boot up it shows that it failed to calculate module dependencies.  how to solve that?
[02:45] <flake> next question..  can forward two numbers.. the main one to the server, and a remote one to the main one?
[02:45] <Jack_Sparrow> veki: that version has reached end of life.. get a newer copy
[02:46] <Enul> lol thats a very slow lingering death indeed.. i'll talk to him and see if he will burn me a copy and stick it in the mail.. it will be just about as fast as downloading it
[02:46] <flake> er looking for remote phone-queue capability
[02:46] <gnuskool> CokeNcode, yes tunnel x over ssh, tutorial here, but its linux to xp, http://www.cag.lcs.mit.edu/~wentzlaf/faq/ssh_X.html, google for others
[02:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !eol
[02:46] <ubotu> End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/LifeCycle
[02:46] <veki> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thanks, but How can I escape my data from it or at least to fix the issue bebore installing new version  of ubuntu
[02:46] <Frogzoo> flake: asterisk?
[02:46] <flake> oops main cust ph # to the remote, and the remote to the server
[02:47] <CokeNCode> gnuskool will that allow me to run the program ... and leave it running even after i've logged off ?
[02:47] <flake> yes, downloading it now Frogzoo
[02:47] <flake> ty
[02:47] <Enul> well i gotta go.. thanks for the help guys
[02:47] <Jack_Sparrow> veki: Run the live cd and copy what you need to a usb etc ?
[02:47] <CokeNCode> gnuskool i also don't wawnt to run x over ssh because of bandwidth restrictions ... is there any other way to accomplish this
[02:47] <poh> BlueParrot: good to know.
[02:47] <veki> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thanks
[02:47] <CokeNCode> communicate with the x running on my desktop now, without having to run x over ssh
[02:47] <flake> does the server call back with the person on the phone once out of queue?
[02:48] <gnuskool> CokeNcode,if bandwidth is an issue, you may ahve to keep asking, i dont know other ways
[02:48] <poh> I knew that I could instal debian on top and have it work, but I've only ever used debian so I've never needed to switch it.
[02:48] <gilster> can someone explain to me the differene between ubuntus Display auto "sleep" mode and windows Turn Off monitor feature?
[02:48] <SlimeyPete> CokeNCode: set your DISPLAY variabl so that it points to the running X session
[02:48] <SlimeyPete> that will allow yu to run X progs remotely, on the remote display
[02:48] <CokeNCode> thanks gnuskool
[02:49] <gnuskool> CokeNcode,np
[02:49] <SlimeyPete> if I recall correctly there is an X11 equivalent to Screen, too.
[02:49] <CokeNCode> SlmeyPete thanks ... that would involve running x over ssh tho ... right?
[02:49] <CokeNCode> unless i misunderstand
[02:49] <kbrooks> ping
[02:49] <kbrooks> i need help
[02:49] <Pici> kbrooks: pong
[02:49] <SlimeyPete> CokeNCode: no. You ssh in in text mode adjust setthe DISPLAY variable (using "export DISPLAY=:0.0" or similar)
[02:49] <SlimeyPete> AFAIK, that should work.
[02:50] <kbrooks> my routrer is not booting, and i have tried resetting it. it turns on, but doesnt do any detection
[02:50] <kbrooks> jwhat could be up?
[02:50] <r1ot3r> hi, I need some help here. I have just installed feisty on my laptop, and I cannot connect to my wireless network in it. It is a NETGEAR WG511T PCMCIA Wireless card. I am in range of the wireless network.
[02:50] <CokeNCode> SlimeyPete whoa ... where can I find some more info on that. I seem to be a bit out of my depth here.
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless
[02:50] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:50] <CokeNCode> sorry to be a pain.
[02:50] <r1ot3r> cheers
[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> r1ot3r: It is a place to start...
[02:51] <kbrooks> Any help here?
[02:51] <fivetwentysix> rlot3r try using manual connection, selecting the router you wanna connect to. then restart and see what happens.
[02:51] <r1ot3r> i tried that 526
[02:52] <SlimeyPete> CokeNCode: not sure where you could find more info. If you just ssh in, run the command I gave you and then run an X app (such as xedit) then it will probably just work, assuming X is already running on the machine you're logging in to.
[02:54] <CokeNCode> SlimeyPete ok, thanks, anything I should know before I go off and run this command ?
[02:54] <saxi1> I'm currently on a fresh install of Ubuntu Gutsy. The compiz-fusion effects are working great, but is there any place where I can do some changes? Or do I need to download a program to do that? If so, what is it called?
[02:54] <r1ot3r> ok I am sorted now, thankls

[03:13] <Moduliz0r_> The only hardware that's changed since I used to run it is my graphics card, now I have an nVidia GeForce 8600 GT/Extreme
[03:13] <wirelessmonkey> xbehave >> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[03:14] <Javid> martin_, what kind of system is it? mine does that too
[03:14] <Carroarmato0> martin_: that is usualy caused by the pcm level being to high
[03:14] <shiester_miester> thanks wirelessmonkey , SlimeyPete
[03:14] <Carroarmato0> martin__: that is usualy caused by a pcm that is too high
[03:14] <martin__> ok cheers i'll try that
[03:15] <Moduliz0r> can anyone help me fix my Ubuntu install problem?
[03:15] <martin__> Javid, feisty if that helps
[03:15] <DarthShrine> The icons in my Openoffice.org installation are strangely non-existent (for example the toolbar icons like save, open, etc.) How can I get these back?
[03:15] <druid__> hmmm i need help with myth tv but there doesn't seem to be a channel on irc can anyone help me here
[03:15] <wirelessmonkey> xbehave >> sounds like a video driver problem, your video card info changed in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and needs to be updated.  If the reconfigure didn't work, you may just need to edit the xorg.conf, and change "DRIVER "NVIDIA" to "DRIVER"NV" then restart.
[03:15] <Javid> I mean your physical computer
[03:15] <Moduliz0r> i'm stuck with Windows :(

[03:16] <xbehave> wirelessmonkey, the error is something to do with font files, ive had problems with my filesystem since last login, is there any cahnce its to do with files?

[03:17] <Moduliz0r> ok
[03:17] <martin__> Javid, well at the minute i'm using an asus aspire laptop, with built in sound card, happens on my desktop aswell

[03:17] <Javid> ok
[03:17] <Moduliz0r> Can't do that either :(
[03:17] <wirelessmonkey> xbehave >> I suppose corrupted fonts might cause the problem.  I'm not sure off the top of my head how to fix that though. Let me see what I can find.

[03:23] <dencrypt> it's bad that ubuntu don't have a function for finding my laundry-card.
[03:23] <dencrypt> :(
[03:23] <fevel> thanks guys
[03:23] <SlimeyPete> dr_Willis: is the last 0.10% still available on the network?
[03:23] <dencrypt> any swedish people here?
[03:23] <dr_Willis> SlimeyPete,  yes it is. according to the torrent clients info.

[03:23] <dr_Willis> SlimeyPete,  done the exact same thing MONTHS ago - then there was a fix.. but it seems tobe doing it again

[03:25] <detail> i mounted drive but i cant write data on it
[03:25] <SlimeyPete> dencrypt: ok
[03:25] <SlimeyPete> detail: you need to install ntfs-3g
[03:25] <SlimeyPete> see the link that ubotu gave you
[03:25] <dr_Willis> detail,  you need to mount ntfs properly to write to them
[03:25] <oxygenws> is there anyone who can record audio by recordMyDesktop?
[03:26] <detail> if i can see files isnt it mounted
[03:26] <jeffferrari> detail: mounted, but not writable

[03:27] <incorrect> does anyone know of a web based tool for managing bind?
[03:27] <oxygenws> incorrect: webmin
[03:28] <tarelerulz> ntfs-3g is the bomb and I could not live with out it and the config program that lets you auto mount ntfs is nice too
[03:28] <incorrect> anything else
[03:29] <fivetwentysix> Hmm, when I configure my xorg what x serv driver do i use?
[03:29] <fivetwentysix> i'm using a 8800 gts

[03:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:29] <SlimeyPete> nv or nvidia
[03:29] <oxygenws> is there anyone who can record audio by recordMyDesktop?
[03:29] <fivetwentysix> and everytime i use nvidia it doesn't start up
[03:29] <Kitsun> Is it possible to get my WiFI card to act as an accesspoint so I can connect my Nintendo DS to it?
[03:29] <SlimeyPete> fivetwentysix: then use nv
[03:29] <SlimeyPete> fivetwentysix: nv comes with uuntu. You have to manually install nvidia.
[03:30] <Shoopuf> Are there any plans to fix the broken Applications Menu in the upcoming Hungry Herring release?
[03:30] <dr_Willis> Kitsun,  ive heard that DS wireless is VERY brain dead. some times it just does not work properly with some cards.. it 'should' be possible. but it may not work right.
[03:30] <Bieleke> anybody that has swat running on 7.04

[03:30] <Bieleke> i'm really freaking out in meanwhile :-)
[03:30] <fivetwentysix> I'm trying to install nvidia drivers as we speak
[03:30] <fivetwentysix> Seems harder this time
[03:30] <Kitsun> any good search terms?
[03:30] <dr_Willis> fivetwentysix,  i just install the 'restricted-manager' tool and let it do the work.
[03:31] <fivetwentysix> dr_Willis, i'd like to do that, but that won't work for a 8800 gts
[03:32] <dr_Willis> fivetwentysix,  i do recall the nvidia drivers in the repos being a bit old. so they have issues with an 8800. No personal experience with the 8800  however.
[03:32] <bulmer> Kitsun  visit  www.barwn.org
[03:32] <Shoopuf> Sorry, I meant in Gutsy Gibbin
[03:32] <Pici> fivetwentysix: I think that the 8800 is only supported under the nvidia beta linux beta drivers.
[03:32] <Znortfl> Dear ubuntu people, I want to install a 64-bit version of ubuntu for my pc (Athlon AMD64) and I am currently using 32 bits. The use of Wine is very important to me. Will it break after "upgrading"?
[03:33] <epegz> Nabend
[03:33] <shiester_miester> Znortfl, you don't "upgrade" from 32 bit to 64 bit

[03:33] <Shoopuf> Znortfl: I'd suggest sticking with 32-bit, many many more applications. Not many 64-bit apps out there.
[03:34] <tarelerulz> can deluge check a directory for complet  torrent and just share it
[03:34] <shiester_miester> yeah, I'm using 64 bit architecture, but running 32 bit ubuntu.  in my opinion it's better for now at least
[03:34] <Znortfl> shiester_miester, Shoopuf: okay, I'll stick with 32-bit then. One more question though: For some odd reason I cannot upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 via the embedded installer. Is it wise to download an ISO image and install it from the CD? Will I lose my data?
[03:35] <Bieleke> dr_Willis: thanks for the links, but has nothing to do with swat
[03:35] <MGPalmer> heya, can someone help me with my VNC setup on an ubuntu server ? I can't get a login window after connecting with a viewer
[03:35] <dr_Willis> Bieleke,  to be honeste with ya. i dont evenuse Swat any more. its a bit old and crufty. :) theres other gui's and tools out to admin samba now a days. But i just edit the samba config file myself.

[03:36] <shiester_miester> Znortfl, I'm not sure if you'll lose your data or not...better idea might be to find out why it's not upgrading

[03:37] <mcsd> in xorg.conf is Section "Monitor" the only entries that pertain to a monitor? is there a way to detect a monitors capabilities without specs and without guessing?
[03:37] <Znortfl> shiester_miester: I asked multiple times here, no answer. Here's the thing: It complains (translated from Dutch) that there was an "unsolvable" problem in the "program-tree"
[03:37] <MGPalmer> ajopaul: I just tried, and it said it cant open the display - which makes sense since i've only got remote SSH access to the machine

[03:39] <azzurrinux> can I create two tar.gz with MD5 generation and make sure that when extracting on the other server, the MD5 matches?
[03:39] <fivetwentysix> oh i downloaded that already
[03:40] <fivetwentysix> and tried to install it
[03:40] <fivetwentysix> but it didnt work
[03:40] <ajopaul> MGPalmer, u may need to do it directly i guess.. physically at the server
[03:40] <Pici> fivetwentysix: The install didnt work?
[03:40] <LiveFire> Hi Question:  How can I run a configuration from my server edition?  In my old Red Hat version, I could call "linuxconf" to set IP and manage users, etc.  Is it a different program in ubuntu? what program do I need to use?
[03:40] <fivetwentysix> hmm
[03:40] <fivetwentysix> lemme do it again
[03:40] <MGPalmer> ajopaul: I did already try to allow xdmcp connections in the gdm config files (found that via google), but when i do that, the viewers just disconnect after the protocol negotiation (i think)
[03:40] <shiester_miester> azzurrinux, it would be easy enough to just use a checksum program and run it on both systems after copying, to check that the checksums of the files match
[03:41] <azzurrinux> thanks shiester_miester
[03:41] <MGPalmer> ajopaul: BTW, with that vino-preferences thingy, is that the dialog to allow remote desktop connections ? cause i've got that enabled already
[03:41] <azzurrinux> as there are kilometers of distance
[03:41] <shiester_miester> azzurrinux, I recommend fsum, its a great little checksum program
[03:41] <azzurrinux> between the two servers
[03:41] <Pici> !enter
[03:41] <azzurrinux> we will use DVD's
[03:41] <ajopaul> yes that is where u allow/disallow or set passwords for remote connections..
[03:42] <azzurrinux> and I think that tar archiving would be better instead of simply creating a ISO image with the content
[03:42] <MGPalmer> ajopaul: AFAIK, thats only for sharing desktop sessions anyway, I need a full remote login via VNC
[03:42] <azzurrinux> what do you think, sysadministical taking? :D
[03:44] <ajopaul> MGPalmer, yes that is what required in gnome to setup a vnc session, the /usr/lib/vino/vino-server daemon accepts vnc connections based on preferences..
[03:44] <azzurrinux> shiester_miester, thanks in advance for your help ;)
[03:45] <dr_Willis> i just ssh in, start vncserver, and have my own independant desktop. :) for my vnc fun.
[03:45] <shiester_miester> np
[03:45] <MGPalmer> hmmm
[03:45] <azzurrinux> shiester_miester, there will be some thousand files on each DVD
[03:45] <Exteris> ubotu is off :(
[03:45] <azzurrinux> for this reason, the MD5 file would be very big
[03:45] <bullgard4> How can I find out what my disk driver is?
[03:46] <LiveFire> Hi Question:  How can I run a configuration from my server edition?  In my old Red Hat version, I could call "linuxconf" to set IP and manage users, etc.  Is it a different program in ubuntu? what program do I need to use?
[03:46] <azzurrinux> bullgard4, what do you mean?
[03:46] <azzurrinux> pwd? mount?
[03:46] <dr_Willis> LiveFire,  you proberly should be checking out the various ubuntu starter guides.
[03:46] <bullgard4> azzurrinux: I meant what I said. What do you not understand in my question?
[03:46] <dr_Willis> LiveFire,  theres a great many system admin tools in the menus.  I just dontknow their names off hand.
[03:46] <KleRoi> hello, does anyone knows how can I burn an audio cd in feisty having a .ape and a .cue file?
[03:47] <fivetwentysix> damn
[03:47] <fivetwentysix> didn't work
[03:47] <azzurrinux> bullgard4, disk driver or disk drive?
[03:47] <fivetwentysix> i installed it
[03:47] <fivetwentysix> but once it reconfigured my xserver
[03:47] <bullgard4> azzurrinux: disk driver
[03:47] <fivetwentysix> it wouldnt load
[03:48] <azzurrinux> a dmesg should help you ;)
[03:48] <bullgard4> azzurrinux: A disk driver is a program to control my hard disk.
[03:49] <Evanlec> bullgard4 type dmesg in a terminal window
[03:49] <bullgard4> azzurrinux: What should I look for in dmesg?
[03:49] <bullgard4> Evanlec: And then?
[03:49] <forest> how to remove shortcut made by wine (for application that have been unistalled)?
[03:49] <azzurrinux> information about the hard drive recongnision
[03:50] <Evanlec> well, there's a lot of stuff to look through ;p
[03:50] <bullgard4> azzurrinux: What format has a hard drive recognition in dmesg?
[03:50] <Wolfsong> i just enabled my nVidia driver and rebooted and now i have a black screen. any ideas how to get it working?
[03:50] <azzurrinux> they are the first things it says when a hard drive (eg. external) is plugged in
[03:51] <azzurrinux> Wolfsong, black screen when?
[03:51] <azzurrinux> it should be a X.org fault
[03:51] <azzurrinux> so if you press CTRL + ALT + F1 the system should work in tty mode
[03:52] <wers> #ubuntuforums
[03:52] <Wolfsong> after booting...it successfully gets to the login screen and the desktop since i can hear the ubuntu drums
[03:52] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  you got a tv hooked up? or any other monitors?
[03:52] <madera> Some distributions have very intelligent Bash command line completion, some distros dont. Where is this configured or what makes it beter? For example, some completions even know that chown takes a user as a parameter and actually search the /etc/passwd file for valid users. What controls this?
[03:53] <Wolfsong> dr_Willis: no it's a laptop
[03:53] <egWK> I can't write audio cds with Serpentine anyone know why? Basically they go all the way and in the end (its writing fixing disc) I get an error
[03:53] <erUSUL> madera: in your .bashrc you can turn on bash completion
[03:53] <dr_Willis> wolferine,  Try hitting those keys that 'switch monitors'
[03:53] <Wolfsong> no other external monitors
[03:53] <dr_Willis> wolferine,  friends laptop has/had similer issue it was defaulting to the external montor that was NOT hooked up.
[03:53] <Wolfsong> i can get to a tty
[03:54] <Evanlec> erUSUL where is .bashrc ?
[03:54] <dr_Willis> .bashrc is in theusers home dir.
[03:54] <dr_Willis> if not make one.
[03:55] <Wolfsong> what do i do now that i have a term?
[03:55] <erUSUL> Evanlec: in your home dir or alternatively for site wide conf in /etc/bash.bashrc
[03:55] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  you mean the 'console' with alt-ctrl-f1 ?
[03:55] <Wolfsong> yes
[03:56] <madera> Sure, Bash completion can be turned on or off, but what makes it more intelligent? is this configurable?
[03:56] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  the key combo for the  'change monitors' dident help eh?
[03:56] <Badpenguin86> I have a laptop and want to use an external monitor.. not dual.. just other monitor instead of laptop. How would I do that?
[03:56] <dr_Willis> Bash Completion is a rather complex set of scripts/aliasls/features :) its worht reading about.
[03:56] <Wolfsong> i'm at tty1 right now...i don't have another physical monitor
[03:56] <dr_Willis> I rember when it first came out/commonly sed.
[03:57] <Pici> madera: There are files in /etc/bash_completion and /etc/bash_completion.d/ that control how the completion is done.
[03:57] <madera> Ha!! Thanks =o)
[03:57] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  right.., Neither did my friend. He just had a black screen, heard sound.. then accidently hit the 'Fn-Monitor' key on his laptop  with NO externalmonitor. and it kicked the nvidia driver in the head some how and made the lcd start working.
[03:58] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  he had todo that for a day or 2.. then some kernel update some how fixed it.. he dosent have to do it now.
[03:58] <Wolfsong> so he can get to X?
[03:58] <Badpenguin86> I have a laptop and want to use an external monitor.. not dual.. just other monitor instead of laptop. How would I do that?
[03:59] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  YES he can. he just had to hit that key combo on first boot.
[03:59] <Wolfsong> i can't
[03:59] <jrib> Wolfsong: the nvidia page on the wiki links to the bug you are experiencing and provides a solution
[03:59] <Wolfsong> when i go back to tty7 the screen is still black
[03:59] <jrib> !nvidia > Wolfsong (see the private message from ubotu)

[04:05] <ubotu> Package lts does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:05] <Evanlec> !LTS
[04:05] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[04:05] <YogeshECU> !lts
[04:05] <Evanlec> ah
[04:06] <Black_Monkey> they announced Hardy Heron the other day, and said it would be LTS
[04:06] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, how well does keeping a seperate '/home' serve?  I always wondered would it not cause trouble when installing apps and the like again because of all those '~./' directories
[04:06] <YogeshECU> so all .04 will be LTS?
[04:06] <Black_Monkey> no, 7.04 isn't...
[04:06] <SlimeyPete> YogeshECU: no, just some
[04:06] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  with /home onits own partition, and mounted to /home - theres NO difreranfc the apps can see.
[04:06] <YogeshECU> oh ok
[04:07] <dr_Willis>  Paddy_EIRE  ~ is just a shortcit to /home/username
[04:07] <Black_Monkey> hard to tell now, but maybe it will be every 2 years
[04:07] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  you could have /home on a NFS share, or other  thing also. shouldent affect the apps at all.
[04:07] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, oh... so its handy I suppose if used in conjunction with say 'aptoncd' ..?
[04:07] <Pici> YogeshECU: 8.04 will be LTS.
[04:07] <Paddy_EIRE> all the config files are maintained
[04:07] <Pici> YogeshECU: Thats April (4) of 200(8(
[04:07] <YogeshECU> thanks Pici
[04:08] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  you could have your apt archive dirs mounted on a nfs share - so all pc's could use it. :) but theres alternatives to that also.
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, you should have a wiki or blog or something I would like to see what kind of things like that are possible... amoung other things I'm sure
[04:11] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  all iknow..ive gotten from reading, reading, and reading.. :)
[04:11] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  ive gotten very good at researching/reading/googling.
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, yes ofcourse.. but I mean presenting thing from your learned perspective would be nice
[04:12] <Wolfsong> dr_Willis: i tried adding 'UseDisplayDevice' "DFP"' to the Screen section and X gave a config error
[04:12] <wers> how do I set at alt+space as the shortcut for focusing the deskbar?
[04:12] <Wolfsong> did i do something wrong
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> wers, hmm, I take it you dont like alt+f3
[04:13] <Wolfsong> i added before the subsections without quotes around UseDisplayDevice
[04:13] <dr_Willis> Wolfsong,  no idea. Ive not had the problem you are experiencing.  Ijust know what my friend did to fix his.
[04:13] <wers> Paddy_EIRE, I'm using alt+j now
[04:13] <wers> but..
[04:13] <wers> The shortcut "<Alt>space" cannot be used because it will become unusable to type using this key.
[04:13] <wers> Please try with a key such as Control, Alt or Shift at the same time.
[04:13] <Pici> !away > x600-AWAY
[04:13] <dr_Willis> theres example xorg.conf files allover the place iimagine. stuff like that need tobe below the 'driver Nvidia' line I belive
[04:14] <wers> I still prefer alt+space
[04:14] <Javid> !away
[04:14] <ubotu> You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> wers, then maybe it would not be a good idea.. unless you want ctrl+alt+space? I'm unsure if this is otherwise used elsewhere
[04:15] <Evanlec> is there a free RAR program?
[04:15] <Exteris> yes, rar
[04:15] <Pici> !rar | Evanlec
[04:15] <dr_Willis> !rar
[04:15] <Evanlec> it says its shareware
[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> Evanlec, 7-zip is also good.. are you creating rar files
[04:15] <Evanlec> extracting
[04:16] <dr_Willis> wine winrar.exe :)
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> then use 7-zip
[04:16] <ubotu> Evanlec: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, how dare you bring that filth:P
[04:16] <swiftnomad> Hello. When I turn on my computer I some things open that I dont want too. Like- compiz fusion. I mean, I want it to run but not ccsm & also home folder opens when I start session
[04:17] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  right now i got a 200 file .rar archive.. and file # 145 is currupted..  trying to figure out how to salvage the files that are good. :)
[04:17] <swiftnomad> I've looked in sessions and I dont get it.
[04:17] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  cant figure out how tomakeit skip/ignore the bad ones from the comand line.
[04:17] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, oh dear
[04:17] <Evanlec> !info unrar-free
[04:17] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (feisty), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[04:18] <jrib> Evanlec: don't bother with unrar-free, use unrar from multiverse if you are extracting a rar file.  Then just double click on your file or right click -> extract
[04:18] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  darn split rar.. that contains 10000+ zip files
[04:18] <Evanlec> ok
[04:18] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, jeeze
[04:18] <boskie> anyone know why I am getting the error mkfs.vfat not found, even though it's in /usr/sbin and a executable?
[04:18] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  dont ask what it is.. :) heh...
[04:18] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, split archives annoy the hell out of me
[04:19] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, cough cough ..porn cough
[04:19] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[04:19] <dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  its a collection of 'abandonware' stuff. so being zipped is ok.. but the whole .rar split stuff without any parity/salvage data - is getting annoying.
[04:20] <Vlet> Is there a way to set a blank pass? This is just for a virtual machine running in vbox.
[04:20] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, you wouldnt believe the guy I was helping just the other day, he was trying to watch an embedded web vid and set me the link in prv chat... it was midget porn hahaha
[04:21] <jorgp> I am using litespeed server and trying to send a .dmg file but it keeps saying file not found or I get the index.html file. I checked the permissions, they are 777 on file and 755 on the dir. any ideas?
[04:21] <Paddy_EIRE> dr_Willis, I almost fell over
[04:21] <jrib> Vlet: yes, since the live cd has a blank pass; no, I don't know how offhand
[04:21] <Vlet> haha
[04:21] <jorgp> this is edgy
[04:21] <dr_Willis> bbl
[04:21] <Paddy_EIRE> later
[04:22] <Paddy_EIRE> jorgp, why no upgrade to 7.04
[04:22] <jorgp> Paddy_EIRE: i'm trying to fix this problem first, or figure out why its doing it
[04:23] <Bakefy> is there a way to set utorrent to open torrents default?
[04:23] <jorgp> Paddy_EIRE: is this a known problm with edgy?
[04:23] <Paddy_EIRE> jorgp, I missed your original problem.. if you dont mind could you repeat it
[04:24] <Davy_Jones> hi, i wanna choose that ubuntu alt-click combination replaced by super-click.. someone said it's in the gconf-editor.. but it's hard for me to find.. does anyone know?
[04:24] <Black_Monkey> when grub loads, it says "Grub loading stage 1.5" for about 30 seconds, then "Grub loading, please wait" for about 30 seconds, then eventually boots - does anyone know why it would take so long? :/
[04:24] <Bakefy> how do i get wine programs to be default for some file types?
[04:25] <jorgp> Paddy_EIRE: using litespeed http server, I am trying to have someone get a large file with .dmg extension, but I get either file not found or I get the index.html root page instead of getting the file
[04:25] <wolferine> Bakefy, ask in #winehq

[04:26] <Paddy_EIRE> by the way Davy_Jones gconf aint that big you could probably find it after a quick browse
[04:26] <novato_br> essensial mix, wolferine?
[04:26] <wolferine> google buddy
[04:27] <mikubuntu> anybody know the command line to install Xara Xtreme?  I downloaded it but can't figure out how to get the package managers or gdebi to open/install it...
[04:27] <wolferine> laters
[04:27] <mdll> i caant install pidgin ,i cant find it on synaptic and i have x64 so i cant install the x32 package
[04:27] <Davy_Jones> Paddy_EIRE: wow.. that's a lot easier than going through gconf-editor.. thanks
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> no probs Davy_Jones
[04:27] <Pici> mdll: Thats because its not in synaptic.
[04:27] <mdll> then?
[04:27] <Davy_Jones> Paddy_EIRE: i just don't like gconf-editor cuz it reminds me of the winders registry
[04:27] <novato_br> i would help you, mdll, but english not good!
[04:27] <mdll> sure no prob
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> !pidgin | mdll

[04:29] <Evanlec> Uptime: 11 hours and 45 minutes
[04:29] <xbehave> my system seams quite screwed after a crash, i had to restore the filesystem, is theyre anyway i can get my install to check itself?
[04:29] <Evanlec> !smp
[04:29] <ubotu> Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[04:29] <genii> Anyone besides me timing out on security.ubuntu.com ?
[04:29] <fivetwentysix> I installed the nvidia drivers and they don't work. So I'm trying to uninstall everything it did
[04:29] <fivetwentysix> and reinstall it
[04:29] <fivetwentysix> How do i do that?
[04:29] <xbehave> ive reconfigured xorg and restored it, but it still wont start properly
[04:29] <jorgp> Paddy_EIRE: the file is 6gig, do you think litespeed needs large file support to handle it?
[04:30] <Evanlec> does ubuntu/linux utilize dual-cores well/better than windows ?
[04:30] <Pici> genii: working here.
[04:30] <xbehave> fivetwentysix, just select the program and uninstall completly and restore the xorg backup it made
[04:30] <Paddy_EIRE> can I check the remaining time of my battery on the cli ?
[04:30] <fivetwentysix> but i didn't install it with the repositry
[04:31] <gnuskool> xbehave,what message you getting
[04:31] <novato_br> good question, Evanlec, i would like know, too
[04:32] <Evanlec> tx ;p
[04:32] <xbehave> gnuskool, its something to do with a font file
[04:32] <Harkins> What program do I dpkg-reconfigure to set the default kb layout? I ended up with German when I have a US kb.
[04:32] <Pici> Harkins: xserver-xorg
[04:32] <genii> Pici: OK thanks
[04:33] <Bo1> how do i force quit a application?
[04:34] <gcostello> Paddy_EIRE: cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
[04:34] <xbehave> bol killall <app name>
[04:34] <bobsomebody> acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)      <----- wth is this?
[04:34] <bobsomebody> (wifi laptop btw)
[04:34] <SlimeyPete> Bo1: hit alt-f2 and type "xkill" then enter, then click on the window you want to kill
[04:34] <Bo1> xbehave:let me try
[04:35] <Paddy_EIRE> bash: acpitool: command not found gcostello
[04:35] <Bo1> slimeypete:thank yuou
[04:35] <xbehave> bol scratch what i said SlimeyPete has a much better way
[04:35] <Harkins> Pici: Ah, that's so much better, thanks.
[04:35] <Paddy_EIRE> gcostello, sudo possibly :P
[04:35] <bense> this sounds stupid, but a core2 duo is 64 bit right?
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> gcostello, nope
[04:36] <SlimeyPete> bense: yeah
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> bense, yes it is
[04:36] <bense> okay so it's 64-bit but it's still x86?
[04:37] <SlimeyPete> it's x86-compatible
[04:37] <bense> right
[04:37] <SlimeyPete> it's emt64, to be precise
[04:37] <flake> I have a modem in my machine, but it's not showing up in the kde/settings/peripherpheals..  how do I add it
[04:37] <bense> so would i be best getting the amd64 or the x86 32-bit?
[04:37] <flake> or check to make sure it is working
[04:37] <SlimeyPete> bense: flash and java are easier on 32-bit.
[04:37] <Paddy_EIRE> can anyone tell me if I can check the state of my battery on the cli?
[04:37] <SlimeyPete> but otherwise there's not a lot of difference either way
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> Paddy_EIRE: even when alt-right click is off.. i can't use alt-right click to select a loop in blender, you know why?
[04:38] <gcostello> Paddy_EIRE: try cd /proc/acpi/battery
[04:38] <Bo1> when i play games my computer slows down. why?
[04:38] <Frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: acpitool -b
[04:38] <Paddy_EIRE> Davy_Jones, thats a different kettle of fish
[04:38] <bense> SlimeyPete, would the emt64 code run better for my processor?
[04:38] <gcostello> Paddy_EIRE: then ls
[04:38] <praet> Paddy_EIRE: sudo acpi -b
[04:38] <Bo1> paddy_eire:can u help me out again
[04:38] <gcostello> Paddy_EIRE: cd to BAT0 or BAT1 or whatever and cat the files in there
[04:39] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[04:39] <Davy_Jones> Paddy_EIRE: hmm, ok.. i'll try the blender room
[04:39] <Paddy_EIRE> Frogzoo, nope
[04:39] <Frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: what you mean - nope?
[04:39] <Pici> bense: 64bit support for proprietary linux applications is poor.  You will have trouble getting things like flash and java to work properly.
[04:39] <Bo1> why does my my computer slow down when am playing games?
[04:39] <Paddy_EIRE> Frogzoo, sorry command not found
[04:39] <SlimeyPete> bense: meh, a little perhaps, but you're unlikely to notice much difference unless you're running physics simulations or something
[04:39] <MrFeetio> how do I disable desktop effects from the command line
[04:39] <juso> in /etc/shadow "test123:$1$6T1qiEWZ$4MXOMIU8t6/C2SFMrDDe.0:13755:0:99999:7:::"  whats the "13755"  number correspond to?  Anyone know
[04:40] <bense> gotcha, so i guess at this point it's best to stay with the x86
[04:40] <Frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: maybe acpitool's not on the default install, hmm?
[04:40] <praet> Paddy_EIRE: simply 'acpi'
[04:40] <flake> Bo1 - I don't know, I was playing ET on my media windoze xp machine and it was lagging after pb update, had to switch to linux and update pb to play it smooth
[04:40] <Bieleke> guys, ubuntu and raid
[04:40] <Pici> juso: man shadow
[04:40] <Bieleke> how do i get that md device ?
[04:40] <Bieleke> cause now i see sda and sdb
[04:40] <Bieleke> but those two should become a md device ?
[04:41] <Pici> bense: Yeah, stick with x86 unless you have real need for 64 bits.
[04:41] <Paddy_EIRE> gcostello, oddly it says present:                 no
[04:41] <Bo1> flask:am running linux when i play games it slows down and laggs alot. plus is showing 10 fps for games. can you help me out?
[04:41] <Paddy_EIRE> praet, just skips to the next line?
[04:41] <MrFeetio> how do I disable desktop effects from the command line?
[04:41] <richard^^> is brasero better than nerolinux ??
[04:42] <mikubuntu> frogzoo: do you by any chance know the command line to install Xara Xtreme?  I downloaded it but can't figure out how to get the package managers or gdebi to open/install it...

[04:46] <flake> if it's an intel chipset, no wonder
[04:46] <flake> you need intel drivers?
[04:46] <neverblue> Bo1, you installed the nvidia driver but you have an intel card?
[04:47] <neverblue> Bo1, using xchat ?
[04:47] <Paddy_EIRE> Pici, I like inkscape myself but xara is only really newly native to linux, so It needs a little more development to reach the level of the windows version
[04:47] <Bo1> neverblue:i got onboard intel  and i boughtt nvidia card.
[04:47] <neverblue> Bo1, and you want to dual ?
[04:47] <Pici> Paddy_EIRE: I use Inkscape too, never thought of using anything else.
[04:48] <Bo1> neverblue:no
[04:48] <Paddy_EIRE> Pici, nice to have alternatives
[04:48] <neverblue> Bo1, did you disable the onboard video ?
[04:48] <Evanlec> !inkscape
[04:48] <ubotu> Inkscape is a powerful vector graphics drawing application - see http://www.inkscape.org/ for more
[04:48] <Bo1> neverblue:no

[04:48] <Bo1> neverblue:what is that?
[04:49] <neverblue> Bo1, the latest release of Ubuntu
[04:49] <Bo1> neverblue:yeah
[04:49] <neverblue> Bo1, ok, first you should disable your onboard video
[04:50] <Evanlec> anyone know what sort of difficulties i might have installing vista on (physical) disk 1 over an existing install of ubuntu on (physical) disk 2 ?
[04:50] <neverblue> Bo1, then, you want to make sure your xorg.conf uses the 'nv' driver
[04:50] <Bo1> neverblue:bro  igot to write all this down
[04:50] <neverblue> Bo1, third, Feisty has a 'restricted drivers manager' that will assist with installing the latest nvidia driver
[04:50] <neverblue> Bo1, yes, write it down, thats a great idea
[04:51] <neverblue> Bo1, have you editted your xorg.conf before ?
[04:51] <Bo1> neverblue:when i diable the onboard video, the nvidai doesnt let ubuntu load
[04:51] <Evanlec> installing windows After ubuntu = problems with grub??
[04:51] <neverblue> Bo1, we are working around that issue as we speak :)
[04:51] <neverblue> Bo1, put your xorg.conf on pastebin please

[04:56] <Artimus> Is there *ANY* way to unsubscribe from an Ubuntu mailing list through email?  I can't use the website, it keeps saying Authentication failed.

[04:57] <kbrooks> neverblue, 7.10, not 7.04
[04:57] <neverblue> sorry kbrooks?
[04:57] <eichi> neverblue: but i thought with sudo apt-get update it should be added?
[04:57] <kbrooks> neverblue, or maybe he typoed
[04:57] <neverblue> eichi, there is a deb available on there site, just 32bit though
[04:58] <neverblue> oh, sorry, your right
[04:58] <kbrooks> neverblue, he said "why isn't pidgin in the *7.10* package manager"
[04:58] <neverblue> eichi, your using Gutsy, my bad
[04:58] <neverblue> kbrooks, thanks for pointing that out :)

[05:16] <kakaruto> what would cause your PC to freeze, using ubuntu 7.04?
[05:17] <dr_Willis> kakaruto,  1000's of things.
[05:17] <vernon> i am looking to install putty for ubuntu  is there a new verson ?
[05:17] <kakaruto> dr_Willis dam
[05:17] <dr_Willis> kakaruto,  most likely. driver issues. or powersaving issues
[05:17] <enn> Hello-- do I need to enable multiverse to enable Sun Java?
[05:17] <dr_Willis> kakaruto,  given how vague your question was.. the same couldbe said for any OS/Machine.
[05:17] <jrib> enn: yes
[05:17] <Xera^> Are there any guides for networking Ubuntu to XP over ethernet?
[05:18] <kakaruto> dr_Willis ok thanks
[05:18] <RandomUsr> Xera, there are plenty
[05:18] <dr_Willis> Xera^,  by 'networking' you mean seeing 'shared folders' ?
[05:18] <Xera^> Sharing internet/files
[05:18] <enn> jrib: ah ... I thought it was under the GPL now? Will it be moving to main at any point?
[05:18] <Evanlec> that should work out of the box
[05:18] <dr_Willis> Theres more to 'networking' thenjust sharing files. :)
[05:18] <RandomUsr> Xera you may want to read up on nfs and smb
[05:18] <Xera^> ok
[05:18] <jj_> If I install from the text based installer, will I still be able to keep my Vista partition separate and boot it via grub?
[05:18] <dr_Willis> Xera^,  read the various samba docs/guides for shareingfolders
[05:19] <jrib> enn: not sure
[05:19] <enn> thanks
[05:19] <z0rz> How can I do ssh -X through putty?
[05:19] <dr_Willis> z0rz,  unless you are running a X 'server' on the windows machine. it wont do much good.
[05:19] <SlimeyPete> z0rz: install xmng, then enable x-forwarding in the putty preferences.
[05:19] <SlimeyPete> *xming
[05:19] <jj_> z0rz there's an x forwarding section in putting settings, and you need Cygwin / Cygwin-X
[05:19] <Xera^> dr_Willis I also want to share the internet connection
[05:19] <dr_Willis> z0rz,  i install 'xming' to get Linux apps to appear on my windows desktpop
[05:20] <dr_Willis> Xera^,  thats somthing totally Unrelated to samba. :) 'ip-masquerading' i think is theinfo you need to check on it. I never do that any more.
[05:20] <RandomUsr> any wireless experts here?
[05:20] <t4m1n0> how can I start gedit as root in command line ?
[05:20] <Pici> t4m1n0: gksudo gedit
[05:20] <Ravenndude`> Is there a way to make my Desktop Icons always appear on the right side, instead of the left?
[05:21] <Javid> move them over there?
[05:21] <z0rz> thanks dr_Willis and SlimeyPete
[05:21] <Davy_Jones> anyone has experience with openbox?
[05:22] <dr_Willis> Davy_Jones,  its a well documented window manager.. got a more secific question about it?
[05:22] <samuel> so ive followed to the letter the wiki on seamless virtualization, but every time i run an app it shows the whole desktop... not the window of the app, any ideas why?
[05:22] <batrix> anyone here familiar with sox that can help me get the audio out to the audio in on my soundcard to work?
[05:22] <Davy_Jones> dr_Willis: it seems as though it needs gnome or kde to work.. am i right?
[05:23] <dr_Willis> Davy_Jones,  openbox is a window manager.. it shouldnot 'need' gnome or kde.
[05:23] <dr_Willis> its a very small/light weight window manager. and a theres a few apps that go with it.
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> dr_Willis: http://icculus.org/openbox/index.php/Openbox:Screenshots
[05:23] <Davy_Jones> some of the screenshots say.. openbox on gnome, and the lik,e
[05:23] <dr_Willis> screenshots are not docs. :) it CAN run gnome/kde apps.. thats the same for any window manger
[05:24] <dr_Willis> you can replace gnomes Window manager WITH openbox.
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> i'm not saying it CAN'T
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> i see
[05:24] <dr_Willis> Gnome = a desktop 'set' of apps. window manager + filemanager + others
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> so like instead of metacity, yes?
[05:24] <csc`> jrib: heh im trying to fix the wireless driver as we speak, bcm43xx is a peice of crap :<
[05:24] <DrFrasierCrane> hey where can I find some database of gnome applets?
[05:24] <dr_Willis> metacity = window manager, correct.
[05:24] <RandomUsr> <----just wants his wi-fi working on a laptop
[05:24] <jrib> csc`: can you join #ubuntu-ops for a quick test?
[05:24] <Davy_Jones> hmm, ok.. thanks dr_Willis
[05:25] <t4m1n0> What is my host exactly?
[05:25] <batrix> anyone here familiar with sox?
[05:25] <t4m1n0> or how can I figure it out what it is?
[05:26] <t4m1n0> Is my host for example: username@host   IN terminal ???
[05:26] <dr_Willis> your machines name is the 'hostname' set it to what you want.
[05:26] <stefg> !wifi | RandomUsr
[05:26] <dr_Willis> your machines name is 'host' in your exzample

[05:35] <RandomUsr> stefg exactly
[05:36] <RandomUsr> stefg I'm running feisty with the 2.6.20 kernel
[05:36] <rafaelscj> Xera^, using something like "network wizard"
[05:36] <RandomUsr> stefg which should work according to intel
[05:36] <basic_> hi. can anyone tell me where i could find the doc for kchmviewer ? thx .
[05:37] <RandomUsr> stefg so now, in order to get everything my card offers, I have to do it that way
[05:37] <RandomUsr> stefg any ideas?
[05:37] <rafaelscj> Xera^, Start menu > All programs > Acessories > Comunication
[05:37] <msingh> how can i change the display resolution other than from the System menu?
[05:38] <msingh> (i am booting from CD - and wish to install but cannot see the installation program correctly)
[05:38] <stefg> RandomUsr: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild .... get a vanilla (2.6.22) kernel and patch it. i found the stock ubuntu kernels hard to use anyway, so i'm used to build my own kernels anyway
[05:38] <Xera^> rafaelscj, ok, I'm in the setup wizard
[05:38] <kbrooks> um, I want to add a menu entry that opens Gmail into Applications > Internet. What would be the command to use to open Gmail?
[05:38] <rafaelscj> Xera^, what are you reading?
[05:38] <RandomUsr> stefg I have NO clue what I'm doing in the sense of building custom kernel, will that be enough info for me?
[05:39] <yurimxpxman> how can I mount a .cue/.bin image?
[05:39] <jrib> yurimxpxman: convert it to a .iso with bchunk
[05:39] <jrib> !iso > yurimxpxman (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:39] <SlimeyPete> yurimxpxman: use bchunk or bin2iso to turn it into an iso, then mount that
[05:39] <yurimxpxman> SlimeyPete: thanks
[05:39] <multiverse> good morning
[05:39] <alucad> can anyone help me in pptp-command
[05:40] <Xera^> rafaelscj I have "This computer connects directly to the internet or through a network hub. Other computers on my network also connect to the internet directly or through a hub", "This computer connects directly to the internet. I do not have a network yet" and "This computer belongs to a network that does not have an internet connection"
[05:40] <alucad> i cannot connect
[05:40] <alucad> the connection get terminated
[05:40] <rafaelscj> Xera^, Chose 1st option
[05:40] <Xera^> Ok
[05:41] <Xera^> I entered a description
[05:41] <bogdomania>  hello all!im new on using linux,so i dont know much..im trying to install yahoo messenger .deb package and i get in terminal that the dependencies are not satisfied and then libgdk-pixbuf2..what should i do?
[05:41] <JimmyFJ>  /JOIN #fsslug
[05:41] <stefg> RandomUsr: the steps are  easy to follow. The art lies in configuring your kernel right. Leaving out or choosing the wrong stuff will get you an unbootable kernel, or some hardware not working. But see it as a chance to learn. There's alway a 'first time' some time :-)
[05:41] <fyrestrtr> bogdomania: use gaim or pidgin.
[05:42] <batrix> has anyone here successfully configured their tv tuner card here?
[05:42] <Xera^> rafaelscj, now it's asking for a network name
[05:42] <Xera^> Can I put anything?
[05:42] <RandomUsr> stefg that's helpful *rolling eyes"
[05:42] <rafaelscj> Xera^, leave it "mshome"
[05:42] <Xera^> ok
[05:42] <RandomUsr> stefg, can we try it on your computer first? ;_)
[05:42] <Xera^> Turn on file and printer sharing?
[05:43] <rafaelscj> Xera^, I prefer no
[05:43] <t4m1n0> Where exactly do I have to put "profile" in my groob.list so indexing will remember my settings and boot time will be shorter?? I write it at the and of line "kernel/vlminuz..." but with upper case so it can be noted. Did I write profile on the correct places ???
[05:43] <Xera^> ok
[05:43] <stefg> RandomUsr: i already run my homemade 2.6.21... so the test is already passed :-)
[05:43] <multiverse> Hi all.  I'm trying to figure out who actually owns creating the Ubuntu distribution, the ISOs found at this URL:  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/
[05:43] <fyrestrtr> multiverse: who "owns" it?
[05:43] <Xera^> rafaelscj now it's telling me I can make a network setup disk
[05:43] <\oxero> hey
[05:44] <RandomUsr> stefg ok you write the how-to and post it ok?
[05:44] <rafaelscj> Xera^, don't do it, ubuntu will automatic detect
[05:44] <RandomUsr> I love a sense of humor
[05:44] <Pici> !canonical | multiverse
[05:44] <Xera^> ok
[05:44] <ubotu> multiverse: Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[05:44] <\oxero> anyone able to give me a small hand with ubuntu, ive done everything but a problem has occured :)
[05:44] <multiverse> fyrestrtr:  Right.  Who creates the ISO?
[05:44] <stefg> RandomUsr: the howto is already at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild ... so no further excuses: Get started, man !
[05:44] <fyrestrtr> multiverse: I suppose the release team at Canonical.
[05:44] <alucad> im not getting mi internet connection. the error i get is "MPPE required but peer refused" and the connection gets terminated
[05:45] <alucad> can anyone help
[05:45] <Pici> multiverse: Or the iso testing team. #ubuntu-iso I think.
[05:45] <t4m1n0> Where exactly do I have to put "profile" in my groob.list so indexing will remember my settings and boot time will be shorter?? I write it at the and of line "kernel/vlminuz..." but with upper case so it can be noted. Did I write profile on the correct places ???  output of grub.list: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35670/
[05:45] <multiverse> Where can I find information about the Release team?
[05:45] <Xera^> rafaelscj, nothing happened :P
[05:45] <rafaelscj> Xera^, ?
[05:45] <Xera^> oh wait
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> multiverse: at the wiki
[05:46] <Xera^> "Requesting a network address from the wired network"
[05:46] <fyrestrtr> t4m1n0: what tha heck is a gooob.list ?
[05:46] <RandomUsr> OMG, they say DO NOT compile a custom kernel for a special driver and that you only need to install "Linux-Headers Packages"?
[05:46] <rafaelscj> Xera^, I think you must restart before start sharing...
[05:46] <RandomUsr> stefg ^
[05:46] <t4m1n0> fyrestrtr, sorry grub :P
[05:46] <fyrestrtr> t4m1n0: read the comments in the file, it tells you where.
[05:46] <Xera^> restart Windows or Ubuntu?
[05:46] <Xera^> or both?
[05:47] <rafaelscj> Xera^, windows
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> RandomUsr: you didn't know that?
[05:47] <Xera^> ok
[05:47] <Broc223> is there a known problem in XORG with rendering ? seems like every browser turns to a crawl on some pages and pegs the cpu at 100%
[05:47] <RandomUsr> fyrestrtr
[05:47] <RandomUsr> NO
[05:47] <Xera^> Back in a sec
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> oh.
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> oh well, now you do :)
[05:47] <bruenig> Broc223, you mean the browsers do it all on the same pages
[05:47] <stefg> t4m1n0: you're getting something really wrong... you don't edit /boot/grub/menu.lst. you only let the profiling run /once/ manually, otherwise you'd slow down the boot by profiling at /every/ boot
[05:47] <RandomUsr> I put the disk in and things just work or they don't
[05:47] <bruenig> Broc223, sounds like a problem with the pages then does it not?
[05:48] <kdub432> Broc223: you have a graphics driver problem/ its not installed
[05:48] <Broc223> bruenig: no it sounds like a problem with xorg not being able to render them ;-)
[05:48] <RandomUsr> what the H--- is a linux-headers package?
[05:48] <t4m1n0> stefg: so editing grub.list in etc  isn't a good idea
[05:48] <snikker> what command i must type for build a .deb package from a source (that already have a debian folder inside)?
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> RandomUsr: its the header files for the linux kernel.
[05:49] <Racial> wow..
[05:49] <Racial> you guys sit here all day and do nothing.
[05:49] <\oxero> i just installed ubuntu on my 80gb hdd, everything installed fine but since it told me to restart it just keeps saying /dev/sda1 clean, 98381/etc etc, it wont leave that screen, anyone?
[05:49] <RandomUsr> which provide what type of functionality fyrestrtr?
[05:49] <kdub432> snikker: to build from source with most packages, make will do
[05:49] <yurimxpxman> !cab
[05:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:50] <stefg> RandomUsr: wait a second, sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot kpkg while you wait
[05:50] <snikker> kdub432: a simple make create a .deb package?
[05:50] <kdub432> \oxero, just let it run til its done, should correct your disk errors
[05:50] <\oxero> how long should it take?
[05:50] <toyimp> How do you go up in a directory from the terminal?
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> snikker: what are you building? The command is (I think) debuild
[05:50] <yurimxpxman> is there a way to extract .cab files?
[05:50] <an0malist> grr.. can someone take a look at a couple simple lines of code and tell me why I'm getting "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}', expecting ',' or ';' " ??
[05:50] <Javid> cabextract
[05:50] <kdub432> oh, snikker, i misunderstood. look up the tools, debhelper and dh-make
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> RandomUsr: as stated on the tin -- it provides the header files for the kernel.
[05:50] <an0malist> something's up with my if/else or something
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> toyimp: cd ../
[05:51] <kdub432> and snikker, with some packages make check will make a debian i think....
[05:51] <yurimxpxman> Javid: thanks
[05:51] <toyimp> ty fyrestrtr
[05:51] <snikker> fyrestrtr: i'm tring (for learn) with adduser...
[05:51] <stefg> t4m1n0: there's no /etc involved with grub. you press 'esc' during boot, type 'e' on the line starting with kernel, and write the word profile at the end of the line. So the boot process gets profiled, and after that your boot will be somewhat quicker
[05:51] <rafaelscj> Xera^, ...
[05:51] <snikker> kdub432: ok, now i try... thanks
[05:51] <Xera^> rafaelscj, yes?
[05:51] <Xera^> :|
[05:51] <RandomUsr> ahem
[05:51] <rafaelscj> Xera^, is it working?
[05:52] <an0malist> ignore my last post, wrong chan
[05:52] <\oxero> Kdub432, how long should it take to complete?
[05:52] <RandomUsr> maybe i should just fdisk the drive fyrestrtr?
[05:52] <Xera^> rafaelscj, requesting network address
[05:52] <fyrestrtr> RandomUsr: if that is what you want to do? Why are you getting agitated?
[05:52] <t4m1n0> stefg, this or manually once in /etc/grub.list  and second time delete profile from list. But ur propably right, making during the bott is less complicated..
[05:52] <kdub432> /oxero, it really depends on what you're compiling. bug preojects take a lot of time
[05:52] <Xera^> nop

[05:52] <Xera^> not working

[05:52] <\oxero> im not compiling anything
[05:52] <t4m1n0> stefg, sorry for bad english..
[05:53] <stefg> t4m1n0: there is no /etc/grub.list
[05:53] <kdub432> \oxero: the only way that source can go to a binary deb package is if you compile it
[05:53] <t4m1n0> stefg, sorry my mistake again /boot...
[05:53] <Xera^> rafaelscj it hasn't acquired an IP address
[05:53] <stefg> t4m1n0: don't touch it... just reboot

Now this seems unrelated, but when I returned none of the left or right shift, alt or ctrl keys work at all. The rest - including caps - is fine.

[06:13] <ironmatar> binded2:   i just spent 2 weeks on the 64 bi distro  buggyyyy
[06:13] <binded2> hmm really
[06:13] <benzs_s> i am using 64bit right now and have had very few problems related to its being 64bit
[06:13] <binded2> does that matter torwards driver or any thing like that
[06:13] <UncleD> After doing a dist upgrade how long does a reboot usually take?
[06:14] <Enul> damn windows has spoiled me
[06:14] <stefg> binded2: as long as you don't need 3rd party packages all is well (aside from the codec issue)
[06:14] <ironmatar> i think i need the xorg mod after nvidia driver install
[06:14] <binded2> ironmatar and i thought that the differents there with the 64 and 32 is there compiled on the dif chips for support and 64 is more ram but other then that is there any reason to use it over 32 bit
[06:14] <rafaelscj> I am goig to have launch...
[06:15] <tim167> bruenig, the wireless adapter doesnt appear in the Network Settings window...
[06:15] <bruenig> tim167, have you setup ndiswrapper or not
[06:15] <ironmatar> binded2:  all i know is i coudlent get a stable install out of it
[06:16] <tim167> bruenig, no
[06:16] <binded2> hmm i installed it and stuff but then went to thw 32 bit thinkin that i would have problems with it not sure of it
[06:16] <bruenig> tim167, ok ubotu sent you a link I do believe that details how to do that
[06:16] <binded2> but then i tryed to install some stuff like the kwifimanger and it installed but then i couldnt find it in the apps or any were on the system only the icon lol
[06:16] <ironmatar> binded2:  stick w 32 bit
[06:16] <Enul> i'm useing pon and poff. is there something else available?
[06:17] <tim167> bruenig, hmm i didnt catch the link, should it be in this room ?

[06:17] <ubotu> tim167: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:17] <binded2> yea i think i will still trying to figure out how to use the damn thing though im a newbie lol but i can get around lol
[06:17] <tim167> bruenig ok that one i got, thanks
[06:18] <FFForever> how can i use rsync on the server the mirror a samba share (but only copy/delete the new stuff and not recopy everything...)
[06:19] <ironmatar> binded2:  i got a smoother install out of the x86 and good on the updates and got the nvida driver to install rather painlessly  though i sem to have a broken xorg atm  from the vid driver install
[06:19] <ironmatar> and cedega and eve client finna;y
[06:20] <tgelter> I'm running out of space on my root partition and noticed that I have large amount of data under /usr, particularly under /usr/lib and /usr/share, how would I "autoremove" unneeded libs and whatever is under share? (I don't want to go deleting "willy-nilly", nor do I want to examine each piece of data there)
[06:22] <ironmatar> invidia
[06:22] <stefg> tgelter: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean. Don't delete stuff manually that was put by a package there. see which packages you can uninstall
[06:22] <ironmatar> !nvidia
[06:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:22] <Lumio> hey! I set up a local-user on my server. I set the home-dir to /var/www but now I don't have any permissions with that user. Is it because the dir was there before I made that user? How can I give that local-user rights, so I can use ftp and ssh and write files
[06:22] <stefg> tgelter: and consider putting /var on a separate partition if you haven't done so yet
[06:23] <multiverse> I recently purchased a Lenovo Thinkpad R61, which has a very new nVIDIA graphics card.  I decided to install Ubuntu and eventually had to move to 7.10 tribe 5 in the hopes the drivers were newer too.  Ubuntu 7.10 tribe 5 Alternate CD file list - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/gutsy-alternate-amd64.list - lists only one nVIDIA related package:  /pool/restricted/n/nvidia-kernel-common/nvidia-kernel-common_20051028+1
[06:23] <SeveredCross> You need nvidia-glx-new probably.
[06:23] <multiverse> That's right.
[06:23] <SeveredCross> Try installing that package once you get up and running.
[06:23] <multiverse> But it isn't in 64 bit alt 7.10 tribe 5
[06:23] <tgelter> stefg: I've already done the auto-clean, I'm afraid of the clean cause I heard it can bork the system if I'm not careful
[06:23] <Bo1> does any one here know how to install geforce fx 5200?
[06:23] <SeveredCross> Oh...
[06:23] <binded2> ironmatar i could not get that ati to install this mornin  xorg what ever it was :(
[06:24] <multiverse> Can't get it up and running.
[06:24] <multiverse> screen goes blank
[06:24] <SeveredCross> I don't even know if nVidia supports X64.
[06:24] <Linuturk> I'm running Ubuntu edgy server. I've got a package called libgnomeui-common that is marked as auto removable. When I try to remove it, I get the following error message: http://pastebin.ca/675878 Can anyone help me remove this package?
[06:24] <multiverse> it does
[06:24] <stefg> tgelter: nooooo... that just empties the cache
[06:24] <tgelter> stefg: and /var is only taking up 528 MB, why would I want it on a diff partition?
[06:24] <binded2> umm i think that ima reboot back to linux and see what i can get going
[06:25] <blackcurtain> Hey I need to find someone who can help me set up a wireless network.  I'm new to networking in general but I think I know enough about it that if someone explains I'll understand
[06:25] <xbehave> i cant login but can startx without logging in or as root
[06:25] <stefg> tgelter: because apt is having its cache in /var/apt/cache.... apt not working because the drive is full is a major pita, so get thta out of the way
[06:25] <FFForever> how can i view a samba share from the terminal?
[06:25] <multiverse> I want to swim upstream here and get involved, help resolve this issue.

[06:29] <nixnoob> how can i get ubuntu to stop downing wlan0 when i suspend?
[06:29] <Bo1> robby_:if it i would understand. then it has pass 5 days maybe more
[06:30] <Linuturk> nixnoob: i believe it has to down your interfaces so they work properly when you boot back up
[06:30] <binded2> hmm i dont remember if i had that problem with the 64 bit though and i know for sure that i did not have that problem with backtrack
[06:30] <Pici> bluedemon: What is your native language?
[06:30] <Pici> erg
[06:30] <blackcurtain> can anyone point me to a tutorial (aimed towards newbies) on how to set up a wireless network using Feisty?
[06:30] <Pici> Bo1: What is your native language?
[06:30] <nixnoob> Linuturk, when i resume the iface is down
[06:30] <Linuturk> nixnoob: what version of butnu are you using?
[06:30] <nixnoob> Linuturk, feisty
[06:30] <Bo1> pici:turkish
[06:30] <stefg> Linuturk: something might be broken with the package. so reinstall it first with sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgnomeui-common, then remove it agagin
[06:31] <Sevalecan> does ubuntu come with madwifi drivers and wpa_supplicant on the CD?
[06:31] <Linuturk> nixnoob: network manager doesn't pick back up?
[06:31] <teb> hi, i'd like to be able to log in remotely to my server box via ssh (already can) and then start a program but then close the ssh box and have the program continue to run, i don't think i can accomplish this with a trailing & to the command, what else do i need?
[06:31] <Linuturk> stefg: I've tried that, actually. didn't make it happy, sorry I didn't mention it before
[06:31] <stefg> !screen | teb
[06:31] <ubotu> teb: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[06:31] <nixnoob> Linuturk, i have an rt61 i dont use network manager
[06:31] <blackcurtain> everbody seems to have networking problems today
[06:31] <teb> thanks stefg
[06:31] <Pici> teb: You can also do `nohup program &`
[06:32] <Linuturk> nixnoob: do you have to start the adapter on a clean boot?
[06:32] <nixnoob> Linuturk, although i have not uninstalled network-manager
[06:32] <genii> teb: also you can tell it on commandline to detach from terminal. eg:   sh -d /thecommand
[06:32] <binded2> hmm ima reboot and try to get net workin lol
[06:32] <nixnoob> Linuturk,  yes actually
[06:32] <bruenig> blackcurtain, networking and video drivers is about 90% of the channel, when clicking the button on the front end doesn't work, terror strikes the people
[06:33] <Pici> Bo1: This might help you: http://www.ubuntu-tr.com/v6/node/488
[06:33] <Linuturk> nixnoob: well, that's going to be the normal behavior of a wireless adapter unless a) you can use network manger b) you write your own set of scripts to manage it on boot
[06:33] <cox377> is there a client gui that can be used to map network drives without having to do it under command line?
[06:33] <MOTZ> why are flash sites closing my firefox any idea?
[06:33] <WeeJeWel> Can i run the live CD w/o loading gnome and stuff? just a terminal?
[06:33] <teb> stefg: my main goal is to start my ftp server (pure-ftpd) and leave it running, can i start it as a daemon or background process?
[06:33] <Linuturk> WeeJeWel: not that I know of. are you having problems installing? you might want to try the alternate disk
[06:33] <nixnoob> Linuturk, can you help my with custom scripts i wouldnt kno where to start
[06:33] <preaction> teb, for that you want: sudo invoke-rc.d pureftpd
[06:33] <BetaTester> Hi all. Can somebody tell me why my print jobs in Feisty are controlled by cupsys and not by lp?
[06:34] <WeeJeWel> Linuturk, i just dont wanna wait that long to type grub or so
[06:34] <preaction> teb, er... "sudo invoke-rc.d pureftpd start
[06:34] <genii> teb: If it's already a daemon you don't need to worry about detaching it
[06:34] <stefg> Linuturk: the error indicates that apt is looking for some (obviously non-existant) gconf data. So you might have to reinstall gconf2 first, and then get rid of the whole shebang
[06:34] <WeeJeWel> and i dont feel like downloading 700mb again
[06:34] <bruenig> WeeJeWel, the only distro of late that I have seen that allows you to do that is arch, other distros that go with ncurses technically drop you into tty1 but they seem to lock you ought of the other ttys
[06:34] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[06:34] <blackcurtain> bruenig: do you know any good step-by-step tutorials on how to set up a wireless network with feisty?
[06:34] <Linuturk> ok, I'll give that a shot stefg
[06:34] <WeeJeWel> bruenig, ok thanks
[06:35] <EvaLuaTe> i get a 'tcl header {not found}' error when trying to install something, what do i have to install ?
[06:35] <Bo1> pici:now everyhere is makeing me mad i ask how to install my card. but you guys keep on giveing websites.if you dont know just say NO.
[06:35] <bruenig> WeeJeWel, the arch cd is only like 50 mb or something for the small one so you could probably use that as a live cd of sorts pretty quickly
[06:35] <teb> preaction genii: when i issue the command pure-ftpd --userbandwidth 40 it takes the console with it leaving me to believe it's not started as a daemon
[06:35] <Pici> Bo1: That is in turkish, I thought that you might understand it better.
[06:35] <WeeJeWel> okay, thanks
[06:35] <Linuturk> stefg: nope, still throwing an error
[06:35] <genii> teb: you don't want to directly run it. you want to execute it's startup script which is in the dir /etc/init.d
[06:35] <preaction> Bo1, your question is asked so many times that the website knows every possible way to install the card.
[06:36] <genii> teb: with sudo
[06:36] <teb> genii: ohh okay i'll go do that, i didn't think about approaching it from there
[06:36] <MOTZ> any idea why flash sites are closing my firefox?
[06:36] <bruenig> blackcurtain, I don't know of many, basically it consists of two parts, making sure you have the proper modules loaded so that your wireless card can work and then configuring it to associate with an access point
[06:36] <preaction> teb, and you want to find its configuration file to add your config (--userbandwidth 40)
[06:36] <Bo1> preaction:all i did is ask does "any one here know how to install geforce fx 5200?" if you guys do tell me how if not say NO.
[06:36] <blackcurtain> oh and I've also already tried "Create New Wireless Network" in network-manager
[06:36] <blackcurtain> bruenig: I'm trying to host the network in my apartment
[06:36] <jurgentje> Hey... is there an easy way to switch from Ubuntu to Kubuntu? (not wanting to start the "which one is better" discussion. Just have some apps - Quanta f.e. - that seem to be working better on KDE)
 the link is how we know, look at it and it will tell you
[06:37] <Linuturk> nixnoob: I wouldn't know where to start either, sorry. Try searching the wiki and forums for help on scripting
[06:37] <genii> teb: eg: sudo /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd start
[06:37] <preaction> Bo1, no, you didn't just ask. you were rude about it, which is probably why nobody cares to help you.
 try sudo apt-get nvidia-glx
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> jurgentje: Install kubuntu-desktop and be able to select which one at boot..
[06:37] <teb> genii: but i can't go sudo /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd start --userbandwidth 40
[06:37] <preaction> Bo1, did you use the Restricted Drivers Manager?
er sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[06:37] <teb> right?
[06:37] <Linuturk> any other ideas stefg ?
[06:37] <blackcurtain> bruenig: my computer connects fine to other wireless networks
[06:37] <EvaLuaTe> could anyone help me install TCL from the command line please ?
[06:37] <tim167> i get this error: FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid argument, what do I do
[06:37] <stefg> Linuturk: a brutal approch would be renaming /var/lib/dpkg/info/libgnomeui-common.prerm  ....
[06:37] <Bo1> robby_:i try that . it would let ubuntu boot up.
[06:37] <preaction> teb, again, find the configuration file. read "man proftpd", it will tell you where
[06:37] <tim167> ?
[06:38] <fyrestrtr> jurgentje: they will work in either. If you install kubuntu, install it over ubuntu. Then use gdm and select the KDE session to switch.
[06:38] <savetheWorld> apt-get instal tcl ?
 you mean your x server wont work?
[06:38] <teb> preaction: thank you i'll go do that
[06:38] <askand> I have connected a mic and hear what I say in the speakers but cant record..what can be wrong?

[06:38] <Ademan> anyone know of a program to profile your boot process and figure out what's taking the most time?

[06:58] <kyled185> does anyone here know how to create an NFS share that will allow access to all IP's?
[06:58] <MOTZ> @ Norrel
[06:58] <gottatrieit> Afternoon. Can some one tell me what I should expect when using NFS? Will I see an icon in the networking window or does the client machine show up on my desktop?
[06:58] <MOTZ> already reinstalled or even tried ^^
[06:58] <genii> kyled185: examine man exports   manpage for ideas
[06:58] <blah> kyled185: make sure you know what you're doing ... NFS was designed back in the days when networks were considered safe
[06:58] <Norrel> nerdygirl_elli1: you could change the address to neightbour countrys adress, like us.something to ca.something

[06:58] <ssn> ...
[06:58] <UncleD> is upgrading from dapper to edgy pretty painless?
[06:58] <ssn> how do i change it back?
[06:58] <Norrel> MOTZ: thats bad. Flash can bug very hard
[06:58] <kyled185> blah, it's only a temporary share so that I can do a net install on a computer that doesn't have a dvd drive
[06:58] <gottatrieit> UncleD: Yes.
[06:58] <CoasterMaster> UncleD: very painless
[06:58] <ssn> sudo chmod u+r doesnt work
[06:58] <Linuturk> ssn: can you ls their contents ?
[06:58] <MOTZ> reformat ?
[06:58] <velko> ssn: chmod u+w
[06:58] <velko> ssn: oops. sorry

[06:58] <bentob0x> is there a key to press to see the boot events instead of the ubuntu image when the machine starts?
[06:58] <MOTZ> the problem ist since 10min never had before
[06:58] <MOTZ> nothing changed ;(
[06:58] <UncleD> CoasterMaster: What command can I type to see the latest version of ubuntu i'm running
[06:58] <Linuturk> UncleD: cat /etc/issue
[06:58] <pvl1> how do i uninstall Envy?
[06:58] <Hanno> Dear Ubuntu peole, after upgrading my system, it once again broke my nvidia config. I do keep forgetting how to put it right again. Could anybody point me in the right direction? Do keep in mind I am using irssi since I dont have an X server...
[06:58] <Pici> bentob0x: ctrl-alt-f1 or f8. or you can remove the quiet and splash options from grub if you want it to be permanent.
[06:58] <Jack_Sparrow> pvl1: You dont...
[06:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy > pvl1
[06:58] <pvl1> i dont ahve an nvidia or ati card
upgrading your system how?
[06:58] <Linuturk> when my feisty server boots up, the login prompt shows up before other services finish loading. Is this normal?
[06:58] <Hanno> Robby_, via the embedded update-manager
[06:58] <UncleD> so far Ive gone from breezy to dapper
[06:58] <UncleD> today im going to go from dapper to fiesty :)
[06:58] <snikker> why if a "filename.templates" in (in the po folder) start with a comment (#) or a blank line, the templates file in the packaged version (with debuild) start with 2 blank lines?
[06:58] <CoasterMaster> UncleD: if you want to see what version you have: cat /etc/lsb-release
type nvidia-glx --version
[06:58] <Linuturk> UncleD: you better go from dapper > edgy > feisty ;p
and see what it says
[06:58] <UncleD> Linuturk: yea i'm doing that :)
[06:58] <Linuturk> lol
[06:58] <ssn> i dont get it
[06:58] <Hanno> Robby_: Command not found
[06:58] <UncleD> Linuturk: It's doing its upgrade to edgy right now.
[06:58] <UncleD> Linuturk: Anything visually different between dapper and edgy/fiesty?
it seems you may need to get the driver for your card
[06:58] <ssn> i own the folder + content and every folder has the right permissions but i cannot access (ls) the folder without root permissions
[06:58] <Linuturk> UncleD: your usplash should change, but usually it keeps your gnome configs, so you might notice more on a new user account
[06:58] <Hanno> Robby_, I did, I tried nvidia-glx from the repo, I tried the official driver from the website. Both failed
[06:58] <pvl1> is there an html editor like front page with a split code/preview view?
[07:02] (serenityUK/#ubuntu) Hanno if you try the nvidia website driver you must uninstall the ubuntu restricted driver first
[07:02] <[Major] > fansub-irc.com
[07:02] (Hanno/#ubuntu) serenityUK: "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx", I take it?
[07:02] (Gh0Sty2K/#ubuntu) ?
[07:02] (cyanid3_/#ubuntu) how do i open compiz config?
[07:02] (serenityUK/#ubuntu) Hanno try    sudo apt-get remove nvidia*      then reinstall the website driver....
[07:03] (Hanno/#ubuntu) serenityUK: will do, brb
[07:03] <Robby_> Hanno are you still having problems with graphics acceleration?
[07:03] <ironmatar> ok  how do i edit the xorg on the hd from the live cd shell
[07:03] <Bakefy> where is the c drive... for wine?

[07:07] <BlueParrot> hi guys, I used to use wine and it added some start-menu items to my xubuntu desktop menu which persist even after purging wine and its config directory. Any dieas how to remove them ?

[07:16] <serenityUK> ironmatar eh?  i just meant try and browse to the /media folder it might have automounted the hd i can't remember, if not we can mount manually
[07:17] <dgjones> genii, at the moment, i'm just using nautilus to try copy & paste the hidden folder, i'm just trying to tar the .evolution folder as an alternative
[07:17] <Xman> can anybody tell me that a direct internet connection(no router involved) is which typt of connection ADSL connection or PPPoE connection
[07:17] <Xman> ?
[07:17] <Jack_Sparrow> dgjones: You can do it with the dd command...  see !backup
[07:17] <CoasterMaster> Xman: PPPoE is a protocol for connecting, ADSL is a connection method
[07:17] <ironmatar> mm ok i thnk i see
[07:18] <CoasterMaster> PPPoE uses Point to Point uses a username/password
[07:18] <genii> hmm
[07:18] <CoasterMaster> And is usually used in DSL setups
[07:18] <brian__>  so when I enable my desktop effects .. everything works except the cube.. my desktop numbers go down to 1
[07:18] <GNine> brian, you are lost
[07:18] <Xman> CoasterMaster i am having a direct connection and i need to know how to setup it in ubuntu

[07:19] <Lhademmor> Can anyone explain to me: Why does Ubuntu Wiki use MoinMoin? Aren't other engines, e.g. MediaWiki, easier to operate?

[07:19] <brian__> ha, alright
[07:19] <herbaliser> hi i have a Dell Latitude D620 with integrated smart-card reader how do i install this on ubuntu, i use this to read belgian identity card
[07:20] <Xman> CoasterMaster i am having a direct connection and i need to know how to setup it in ubuntu
[07:20] <FFForever> how can i rsync 2 folders? and all of there sub items
[07:20] <genii> Xman: ADSL can use a PPPOE protocol. ADSL is just the way the signals are sent/recieved generally. The PPPOE or so is the specific type of encoding you use to send things over the ADSL
[07:20] <Jack_Sparrow> brian__: That is still non-supported effects... Mine did that as well.. but I turned it all off then back on and it is fixed..for awhile..
[07:20] <titun> what exactly is gobuntu?

[07:20] <CoasterMaster> Xman: if it's a direct connection, it should automatically be set up
[07:20] <bullgard4> Lhademmor: There are other aspects to be taken into account also: The Wiki has to withstand high peak loads, for example.
[07:20] <herbaliser> hi i have a Dell Latitude D620 with integrated smart-card reader how do i install this on ubuntu, i use this to read belgian identity card
[07:20] <titun> i tried wikipedia, but need a more realistic answer
[07:21] <CoasterMaster> titun: gobuntu is a specific version of ubuntu with a heavy focus on free software
[07:21] <CoasterMaster> !free | titun
[07:21] <ubotu> titun: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing

[07:22] <Xman> CoasterMaster yes
[07:22] <herbaliser> Hanno try envy http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[07:22] <titun> CoasterMaster: this means as ubuntu 7.04 includes some optional propritory drivers, gobuntu only provides free softwares? right
[07:22] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  well looking in xorgconfig says nvidia under devide identifier and driver
[07:22] <CoasterMaster> titun: right, everything included in gobuntu will be free in every sense of the word
[07:22] <herbaliser> hi i have a Dell Latitude D620 with integrated smart-card reader how do i install this on ubuntu, i use this to read belgian identity card

[07:23] <britt> Or *not* have Deskbar problems?
[07:23] <ironmatar> si i am not shure if thats the issue
[07:23] <bullgard4> Lhademmor: I do not know all considerations which lead to the final choice. But I do remember that there was a severe blackout when Ubuntu Feisty was about to appear and the high traffic load places severe outage problems.

[07:27] <Baptiste> hey
[07:27] <Baptiste> I've installed feisty on a computer with a core2duo
[07:27] <Baptiste> when I launch something like a pi calculator or cpuburn, only 50% of the cpu is used
[07:27] <Baptiste> just as if only one cpu was used
[07:27] <ironmatar>  serenityUK i have the x86 32bit image and the ix86 nvidia driver good install on the driver full manuel per your previos instruction
[07:27] <dr_Willis> Highly likely Baptiste  by that process/program
[07:28] <GNine> !wifi | xman
[07:28] <ubotu> xman: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:28] <Xman> CoasterMaster see this link for the failure of sudo pppoeconf command after Ist step http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35384/
[07:28] <Baptiste> gnome system monitor says a cpu is used, not both
[07:28] <ironmatar> also good driver install acording to cedega
[07:28] <Baptiste> dr_Willis, I have not understood
[07:28] <serenityUK> ironmatar when did it stop working?  was it after an upgrade?
[07:28] <dr_Willis> Baptiste,  programs often need tobe written properly to make full use of multi processor systems. In
[07:28] <fontenwp> \quit
[07:28] <genii> Baptiste: If you run top then hit 1 does it show 2 cpu or just 1 still?
[07:28] <Lhademmor> bullgard4: I just thought that I guess Wikipedia experiences that kind of heavy load almost every day...?
[07:28] <Baptiste> dr_Willis, ah. is there any software that uses both ?
[07:28] <dr_Willis> Baptiste,  Its possoblle those programs cant fully use them both.
[07:28] <Baptiste> genii, I see both
[07:29] <dr_Willis> Baptiste,  the rest of the OS. :) the Kernel...
[07:29] <uriahheep> ello
[07:29] <genii> Baptiste: Then your kernel is using them both. It's something in the apps.
[07:29] <Baptiste> well if softwares can't use both, no interest that the kernel uses both
[07:29] <Xman> CoasterMaster did u saw that?
[07:29] <Baptiste> have you an example of software that uses both ?
[07:29] <dr_Willis> 'thread based programing' :)
[07:30] <uriahheep> for some reason my apache doesn't seem to be listening to my vhost instructions...
[07:30] <[HHS] Hanno> Is there any sort of fallback driver I can use so I can at least log onto X?
[07:30] <dr_Willis> I dont have a multicpusystem.. so no. :) I would guess that the Seti@home stuff does use both.
[07:30] <attiva> hello can somebody plz help me, I just bought a new laptop and when I try to run the 7.04 LiveCD I get an error.. I think it might be the X window system because 6.06 said something about it when I inserted that.
[07:30] <Xman> CoasterMaster
[07:30] <Baptiste> seti@home sucks
[07:30] <ironmatar> serenityUK: i had updated and restarted an went on to install the driver and  cedega  and then dload and install eve   rebooted and x gets shut down
[07:30] <CoasterMaster> Xman: yeah, I got it
[07:30] <genii> [HHS] Hanno: Usually vesa
[07:30] <dr_Willis> Baptiste,  whatever.. you askeed for a program...
[07:30] <uriahheep> does anything need to be enabled for vhosts to work?
[07:30] <Enul> Does anyone know where i can find the modem lights applet?
[07:30] <Baptiste> dr_Willis, yeah true, thanks
[07:30] <bullgard4> Lhademmor: And I read every day that Wikipedia needs more money from its readers. How much money did you spend to Ubuntu yet?
[07:30] <[HHS] Hanno> genii, just change the driver in xorg.conf then?
[07:30] <Xman> CoasterMaster can u understand anything with it
[07:31] <CoasterMaster> Xman: I don't think I'll be able to help, I don't have a PPPoE connection anymore....but I'll keep trying.  Are you connected directly into the modem or do you have a router?
[07:31] <genii> [HHS] Hanno: Or run from commandline the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:31] <Enul> no one knows?
[07:31] <genii> [HHS] Hanno: Fast way tho is to edit the xorg.conf
[07:31] <furenku> hello!!! i want to install the nvidia drivers, but don't know how
[07:31] <furenku> !nvidia
[07:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:32] <Xman> CoasterMaster i just have a wire coming into my lan card from outside.
[07:32] <CoasterMaster> ok
[07:32] <Lhademmor> bullgard4: Point taken. I withdraw my proposal :)
[07:32] <serenityUK> ironmatar the thing about the website drivers is when you upgrade the kernel or the xserver you need to reinstall the driver..  that's the price for using the latest driver but it shouldn't happen very often once or twice a year
[07:32] <Xman> CoasterMaster can u tell me who is the administrator of the room
[07:33] <CoasterMaster> !ops > Xman (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:33] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  so i need to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg?
[07:33] <CoasterMaster> Xman: you can try using rp-pppoe to configure...it's a free download http://www.roaringpenguin.com/en/penguin/openSourceProducts/rpPppoe
[07:34] <serenityUK> ironmatar so when it boots it says failed x server error and leaves on command line?  try logging in at the command line and running the    sudo sh NVIDIAxxx.run thing again
[07:34] <sacredheart> Why is it that when I burn a dvd-r movie with cdrecord (without any errors) my dvd-player can't play it, but if I burn it in Windows it works perfect? Am I forgetting something?
[07:34] <ironmatar> ah ok
[07:34] <Xman> who is the administrator of the room?
[07:35] <ironmatar> yea i end up at the command line in black screen
[07:35] <techjim> why isn't pidgin in the repos?
[07:35] <CoasterMaster> !pidgin | techjim
[07:35] <ubotu> techjim: 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.
[07:35] <PriceChild> Xman, I am one, can I help?
[07:35] <serenityUK> ironmatar try  sudo sh NVIDIAxxx.run   thing again.. do you still have it?
[07:35] <techjim> CoasterMaster: thanks.
[07:35] <Athrus> Does Ubuntu Server edition support dual core?
[07:35] <ironmatar> i keep all my dloads
[07:35] <serenityUK> good
[07:35] <ironmatar> :] 
[07:35] <CoasterMaster> techjim: no problem, if you want it as a package, I believe you can add the gusty repositories to your sources.list and install it that way
[07:35] <PriceChild> Athrus, out of the box yes
[07:36] <Athrus> super, thanks
[07:36] <Xman> PriceChild i need tosetup an internet connection in ubuntu
[07:36] <PriceChild> Xman, then please ask for support and people will help.
[07:36] <Chi11y> genii: compiz fusion doesn't have any window borders, any idea what the problem may be?
[07:36] <attiva> Can anybody help me please? I get an error just before failing to load the Ubuntu 7.04 CD, but the screen changes so fast that I cannot see it! How can I figure out the problem? I want to give you specific info when asking a question
[07:36] <bruenig> CoasterMaster, not a good idea to mix repo versions
[07:36] <Xman> i asked but i m not getting it right
[07:37] <CoasterMaster> brenig: ahh, got it.....sorry
[07:37] <herbaliser> smartcard reader issue instaal pcscd :)
[07:37] <genii> Chi11y: Nope, i don't use compiz. Best place to ask is in the #ubuntu-effects for anything compiz or beryl related
[07:37] <CoasterMaster> techjim: bruenig says it's a bad idea to mix repo versions, I have installed pidgin by downloading it from the website, you can grab it from there
[07:37] <bruenig> Chi11y, #ubuntu-effects, but you need to be running emerald or some other thing like that if there is another one besides emerald I am not sure
[07:37] <serenityUK> Chilly  try typing  emerald --replace   after   you have run  compiz --replace
[07:38] <bruenig> yeah if it is compiled specifically for feisty, then it should be fine, its just that if you get it from gutsy repos, it will be compiled against other gutsy packages and that is a problem
[07:38] <Xman> Pici can u please help me
[07:38] <Chi11y> bruenig: asking @ #ubuntu-effects now
[07:38] <Chi11y> emerald --replace you say?
[07:38] <techjim> CoasterMaster; bruenig: all I would do if I was to mix the repos were to add repo, grab pidgin, remove repo.  i'm not finding a .deb @ pidgin.com
[07:38] <Chi11y> ok will try that
[07:38] <ubuntubobby> Hello guys. My buntu is nicely 'pimped', but how do I get rid of the brown background that appears between logging in and the desktop startup?  Is there a rc/conf file somewhere?
[07:38] <vitojejo> compiz-fusion:D
[07:38] <bruenig> techjim, it is just that it may be compiled against newer libraries and possibly won't work
[07:39] <CoasterMaster> techjim: yeah, you have to compile it yourself from source
[07:39] <techjim> I see.
[07:39] <MOTZ> @ all solved the problem wit deleting the firefox cache lol
[07:39] <attiva> can nobody help me at all? I am a linux newbie but at least I know how to answer questions correctly
[07:39] <CoasterMaster> techjim: I can walk you through it if you'd like
[07:39] <CoasterMaster> !repeat | attiva
[07:39] <ubotu> attiva: 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
[07:39] <attiva> sorry
[07:39] <bruenig> !attitude | attiva
[07:39] <ubotu> attiva: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:40] <PriceChild> Xman, ask your questions and someone might help. Don't just say "help me", give details.
[07:40] <serenityUK> ubuntubobby,    sudo apt-get install  gnome-spalshscreen-manager   then goto   www.gnome-look.org to download   gnome splash screen pictures
[07:40] <CoasterMaster> techjim: i found a deb of pidgin floating around
[07:40] <Chi11y> I don't have emerald installed
[07:40] <Chi11y> and it has beryl as dependency
[07:40] <aantn> Does anyone here use falcon?
[07:40] <Chi11y> it seems strange that compiz then would need it
[07:40] <serenityUK> ubuntubobby,    gnome-splashscreen-manager   without the typo lol
[07:40] <fevel> can I resize my ext3 partition from inside ubuntu??
[07:41] <CoasterMaster> fevel: check out GNOME partition editor
[07:41] <CoasterMaster> !gparted | fevel
[07:41] <ubotu> fevel: 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
[07:41] <bruenig> Chi11y, something like emerald, I don't know if there are other emerald type things for compiz or not, I think emerald was originally a compiz derived thing but it may have something else now
[07:41] <ubuntubobby> serenityUK Thanks for the reply, will do :)  Right now my gutsy is real hot!
[07:41] <techjim> CoasterMaster: me too.  I'll use strange google search syntax for a deb
[07:41] <Sevalecan> is there a place i can find all the packages and drivers installed on the ubuntu livecd by default?
[07:41] <aantn> Chi11y: whats your question?
[07:41] <fevel> CoasterMaster, I meant can I use gparted from inside ubuntu without rebooting?
[07:41] <CoasterMaster> techjim: you can grab a .deb of pidgin (plus one with a bunch of plugins) at http://www.kalpiknigam.com/blog/2007/05/12/install-pidgin-200-on-ubuntu-feisty-with-all-plugins/
[07:41] <serenityUK> ubuntubobby,    makesure you get the gnome splashscreens... they are different from usplash.. they are just pictures
[07:41] <techjim> CoasterMaster: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=intitle%3A%22index.of%22+%28deb%29+pidgin+-html+-htm+-php+-asp+-cf+-jsp&btnG=Search  nice.
[07:41] <arthur_kalm> Hi everyone, I've tried several email clients: thunderbird + sunfire, kontact and evolution. However, the problem with all of them is that they cannot parse an Outlook meeting invitation. This is _very_ annoying since I have to manually enter all of my meetings. Does anyone know of any email client that can handle outlook meetings? Is there a way to get any of the existing ones to handle it? Thank you.
[07:42] <Chi11y> aantn: compiz fusion git version from ubuntu ultimate has no windows borders
[07:42] <CoasterMaster> Sevalecan: the ubuntu-desktop package is a metapackage containing everything that is installed by default
[07:42] <aantn> oh
[07:42] <bruenig> that pidgin is actually out of date but whatever
[07:42] <aantn> Idk
[07:42] <bung> hello, ive been following the guide to do video ipod encoding, but no matter what i install, i cant get the audio to encode, always get unknown codec aac/adts

[07:42] <mgrignoli> How to turn on  the radio in notebook with ububtu 7.04?
[07:42] <ubuntubobby> serenity ok. I am running xfce4 desktop only (with gnome backends mostly). Hope it works :o)
[07:42] <CoasterMaster> techjim: nice  bruenig: i guess if you want the latest, you gotta do it yourself :)
[07:43] <aantn> Chi11y: you can get the latest version using trevinho's repo
[07:43] <Chi11y> I found something in the faq, will tell later how it went ;)
[07:43] <aantn> Chi11y: although thats not so stable
[07:43] <Chi11y> aantn: I'm using ubuntu ultimate and it came with a relativly stable fusion so that seems good for me
[07:44] <aantn> Chi11y: Amaranth make a stable repository for ubuntu that will probably be more up to date the ubuntu ultimate
[07:44] <bruenig> ubuntu ultimate doesn't have its own repos
[07:44] <serenityUK> ubuntubobby,    ah sorry it is for gnome.......  maybe xfcce has its own... there is an zfce-look.org site i believe
[07:44] <aantn> Chi11y: Amaranth's version is stable
[07:44] <PriceChild> !effects
[07:44] <ubotu> For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[07:45] <serenityUK> ubuntubobby,    xfce-look.org  ***
[07:45] <aantn> Chi11y: its the first (and latest) stable release
[07:45] <ubuntubobby> No worries. It is now installed. will setup, logout and see what happens
[07:45] <aantn> how can I install a tarball that doesn't contain a makefile
[07:45] <elYase> how can a copy a file to another Ubuntu machine?
[07:45] <aantn> or even an install file
[07:46] <aantn> I'm trying to install the beta 3 version of falcon
[07:46] <bruenig> elYase, scp
[07:46] <sipior> aantn: there's no readme?
[07:46] <aantn> and the setup.py file gives me an error
[07:46] <aantn> nope
[07:46] <sipior> aantn: complain to the maintainer
[07:46] <bruenig> aantn, python setup.py build does what?
[07:46] <misnomer> man ubuntu is shit
[07:46] <elYase> bruenig, ssh is instaled in Ubuntu by default?
[07:47] <misnomer> both text and graphical installer wont work
[07:47] <bruenig> elYase, no it isn't

[07:47] <etoo1> hi
[07:47] <snikker> why if a "filename.templates" in (in the po folder) start with a comment (#) or a blank line, the templates file in the packaged version (with debuild) start with 2 blank lines? This happen in dapper
[07:47] <etoo1> ben yeni ubuntu kullancsym arkadalar
[07:47] <PriceChild> misnomer, well instead of appearing to be trolling... could you give details of what doesn't work and ask for help?
[07:47] <genii> On server sersion not regular install
[07:47] <etoo1> bana yardmc oloacak birisi varm sayn arkadalarm
[07:47] <elYase> bruenig, is enough just installing ssh packet?
[07:47] <genii> (ssh server)
[07:47] <sipior> etoo1: your signal's breaking up...
[07:47] <bruenig> elYase, you need to install ssh client and ssh server and use them as they pertain to your two machiens
[07:47] <misnomer> graphical install= my keyboard doesn't work, it's a generic keyboard PS/2, wtf! on text install.. no video output
[07:48] <aantn> bruenig: sudo: ./setup.py: command not found
[07:48] <Howitzer> Does anyone know if it's possible to change Firefox's, default win95-style, buttons to the Gnome theme's buttons?
[07:48] <Advocated> hi there, got a fairly urgent email issue. Using ubuntu, with zimbra, and the account on zimbra isnt getting email. Its storing on the zimbra server, yet not delivering
[07:48] <bruenig> aantn, is there a setup.py in the current directory you are in?
[07:48] <Howitzer> aantn, don't you have to make the setup.py executable?
[07:48] <aantn> bruenig: yes
[07:48] <aantn> Howitzer: hmm...
[07:48] <bruenig> aantn, run "python setup.py build"
[07:48] <misnomer> any ideas?
[07:49] <bruenig> you don't have to just use python
[07:49] <genii> snikker: Because it just replaces any comment lines with a blank one when it parses it
[07:49] <sipior> misnomer: try another distro, see if it works there
[07:49] <Howitzer> i thought you had to do 'chmod +x'
[07:49] <Alloosh> hi guys, where can I found all the external access to my machine?
[07:49] <misnomer> sipior: it does on fedora 7
[07:49] <misnomer> installed it like 1-2 months ago
[07:49] <aantn> Falcon requires python 2.4
[07:49] <genii> Alloosh: Please explain more clearly what you mean.
[07:49] <Alloosh> I see that my modem is blinking which means that there is upload or download to the computer, where can I see that
[07:49] <aantn> which is installed
[07:49] <jshriver> greetings
[07:50] <sipior> misnomer: and nothing has changed since then? keyboard works normally on whatever os you have now?
[07:50] <jshriver> why can't I use arrow keys in vi?
[07:50] <snikker> genii: there is a way to modify it? without change the source code?
[07:50] <misnomer> sipior: nope
[07:50] <bruenig> aantn, that is the error it gives you?
[07:50] <aantn> 1 sec
[07:50] <sipior> misnomer: then i guess fedora 7 is for you
[07:50] <jshriver> it doesnt move hte cursor it just spits out a bunch of crap
[07:50] <aantn> bruenig: yes
[07:50] <genii> snikker: Not that i know of.
[07:50] <misnomer> well thats what i mean about ubuntu, it's not that great
[07:50] <aantn> bruenig: 1 sec
[07:50] <Hanno> Hello, my nVidia card does not show up on the "restricted drivers" menu. Is there any way to make that happen?
[07:50] <Beyond_The_Grave> Has anybody heard of a project that is trying to make directx 10 for linux?
[07:51] <sri> hey folks, I'm wondering if someone can help me.
[07:51] <aantn> bruenig: I'm running it with python2.4
[07:51] <bruenig> !ot | Beyond_The_Grave
[07:51] <ubotu> Beyond_The_Grave: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:51] <snikker> genii: ok, thanks
[07:51] <sri> I had a perfectly working gnome session and today I can't seem to get in
[07:51] <jshriver> sir: what?
[07:51] <sipior> misnomer: you're the first one i've heard of with this problem.
[07:51] <BlueParrot> uhm, I disabled a driver in the restricted drivers manager, but it still says "in use" even after a reboot, the "Enabled" box is unchecked thou
[07:51] <jshriver> ctrl-alt-backspace
[07:51] <bruenig> aantn, the command you are running with python2.4 or you just mean that is the python libraries you have installed?
[07:51] <sipior> misnomer: maybe the motherboard is problematic
[07:51] <sri> the symptom is very weird.  essentailly I get into my session adn then it craps out giving me a dialog box that says my session has lasted less than 10 seconds.
[07:51] <Beyond_The_Grave> thanks ubotu
[07:51] <genii> ARG. work. AFK
[07:51] <BetterThanBrunn> http://darkmonkey.org.uk/4/4/linux.jpg
[07:52] <aantn> bruenig: I ran it with python2.4
[07:52] <sri> but I haven't changed anything and strangely enough if I'm logged in anywhere else it kicks me out (eg ssh in, or virtual console)
[07:52] <misnomer> sipior: doesnt sound right, XP runs fine on it, been the main OS
[07:52] <genii> some one please tell Alloosh about netstat or some other gui tool please he can understand about
[07:52] <misnomer> but ill go back to fedora
[07:52] <aantn> bruenig: I ran python2.4 ./setup.py build
[07:52] <bruenig> aantn, do "file $(which python2.4)"
[07:52] <bruenig> aantn, not ./
[07:52] <bruenig> aantn, take the ./ out
[07:52] <aantn> kk
[07:52] <Chi11y> this is very wierd
[07:52] <bruenig> although I don't suppose it actually matters
[07:52] <jshriver> lol funny pic BetterThanBrunn
[07:52] <sri> so essentaily there is a program that is a) killing X b) just killing session or is crashing gnome-session
[07:53] <elYase> bruenig, ok i installed the openssh packet but i still can conect to the other ubuntu machine
[07:53] <sri> but it dies under xfce so it doesn't seem to be gnome-session
[07:53] <sri> something is running that is causing it.
[07:53] <airwaffle> My iPod is recognized but will not mount, i suspect bad format. Windows attempt to format says it is too big for FAT32, how can I force format the entire thing?
[07:53] <elYase> genii, , ok i installed the openssh packet but i still can conect to the other ubuntu machine
[07:53] <bruenig> elYase, the other ubuntu machine needs the openssh server and needs to be running it
[07:53] <Chi11y> when I run compiz without window decorators it works very good, still no decorators, but whit them I get segmenatation fault 13431 @ line 686 >.<
[07:53] <aantn> bruenig: it ran
[07:53] <elYase> bruenig, just install it and restart and nothing else?
[07:53] <sri> and I was running nvidia drivers, but switched to nv, and it still craps out.
[07:53] <aantn> bruenig: "running build
[07:53] <aantn> running build_py
[07:53] <aantn> running build_scripts"
[07:53] <sri> so it's not a nvidia driver bug
[07:54] <serenityUK> sri, have you run out of space?
[07:54] <bruenig> elYase, not sure if ubuntu runs the daemon or not when you install it, I would imagine it does, but you can just install it and do /etc/init.d/ssh start
[07:54] <aantn> bruenig: yet nothing seems to have changed
[07:54] <bruenig> elYase, I think it is ssh, it might be sshd on that command, someone using ubuntu will have to tell you or you can look yourself after it installs
[07:54] <sri> serenityUK: no I got plenty of space
[07:54] <bruenig> aantn, it doesn't err?
[07:54] <sri> serenityUK: nothing even close to 90%
[07:54] <aantn> bruenig: and then nothing
[07:55] <aantn> bruenig: it outputs what I said and thats it
[07:55] <bruenig> aantn, ok if there are no errors then that is probably good
[07:55] <sri> I would hate to have to re-install everything.. that would be a pain.
[07:55] <jrib> elYase: bruenig is right about it being 'ssh', but it starts automaticallly after install so you shouldn't have to worry about it
[07:55] <serenityUK> sri, can you log in as another user?  maybe create a temporary account
[07:55] <sri> let me try that.
[07:55] <aantn> bruenig: its definitely not installed
[07:55] <bruenig> aantn, right, that was just to make sure it will install properly without worrying about the mess than an incorrect install can lead to
[07:56] <paotzu> elYase: if you are going to run sshd on the net you might want to look at http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/block_brute_force_attacks_with_iptables/
[07:56] <bruenig> aantn, you can run the same command but with "install" instead of build and it should work, there are some other options you can set but just doing sudo python setup.py install, will install it in /usr/local usually
[07:56] <aantn> bruenig: is there something like checkinstall that I can use?
[07:57] <elYase> paotzu, wich packet do i need to install exactly in order to comunicate 2 ubuntu machines?
[07:57] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  its a api mismatch error
[07:57] <techjim> any1 in here know why my feisty lib6c for pidgin isn't satisfiable to install pidgin_2.1.1-1ubuntu1_i386 .  is it b.c lib6c isn't modern enough, isn't gutsy enough?
[07:57] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  re running the  nvida setup dident do anything
[07:57] <bruenig> aantn, you could create a deb, but setting the option --root=/some/fake/directory and then creating a control directory and creating a deb seeing as that is all the checkinstall script actually does but I don't know if checkinstall or anything else does it with python stuff
[07:58] <bruenig> by setting*
[07:58] <genii> elYase: On the machine you want to connect to , you install the openssh-server. it shoudl run the program sshd waiting for a connection. then from the client machine you need the package openssh-client. When you want to connect from there to server you do like ssh -l <usernametoconnectas> 111.112.113.114    where that IP number is the IP of your server machine to connect to.
[07:58] <serenityUK> ironmatar, ok that is when you have the ubuntu restricted drivers install aswell... you need to remove them before you install from the website....  try    sudo apt-get remove nvidia*    then reinstall the website driver
[07:58] <aantn> bruenig: kk
[07:59] <zelva> Hello, I'M an administrator of xubuntu.xf.cz and I need someone from webmaster of xubuntu.org or ubuntu.com. Thank you.
[08:00] <zelva> Is here someone like this?
[08:00] <serenityUK> ironmatar   i have had API mismatch before that should fix it
[08:00] <bruenig> is that an official ubuntu website?
[08:00] <StFS> hi... can someone please tell me what the "correct" way of adding a second hard drive in ubuntu is now? I was about to add an entry to /etc/fstab but it looks like it's filled with gibberish
[08:00] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  that funny im shue i checked the restricted driver install thing before doing this and it said i dident need any
[08:00] <zelva> yes
[08:00] <aantn> bruenig: thanks for your help
[08:00] <sipior> zelva: surely there are easier ways to find the people you're looking for?
[08:00] <bruenig> StFS, the UUID is probably throwing you, you don't have to use UUIDs, just do it like normal
[08:00] <elYase> genii, it says conection refused on port 22
[08:01] <techjim> any1 in here know why my feisty lib6c for pidgin isn't satisfiable to install pidgin_2.1.1-1ubuntu1_i386 .  is it b.c lib6c isn't modern enough, isn't gutsy enough?
[08:01] <serenityUK> ironmatar   i have had API mismatch before ,, try  sudo apt-get remove nvidia*  then     sudo sh NVIDIAxxx.run
[08:01] <furious_gerbil> anyone have a suggestion as to what I should use to theme/replace the taskbars?
[08:01] <ironmatar> right
[08:01] <zelva> sipior: I dont know
[08:01] <elYase> genii, the daemon is already running
[08:01] <ironmatar> copying
[08:01] <elYase> genii, yaser@auger35:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[08:01] <elYase>  * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd                             [ OK ] 
[08:01] <sipior> zelva: doesn't anyone answer at "webmaster@ubuntu.com"?
[08:01] <StFS> bruenig: well I wouldn't mind getting to know what this UUID stuff is all about... I'll google it
[08:01] <trumpas> I can't install display driver. Can help me?
[08:01] <zelva> I wrote there
[08:02] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  i like to write the commands down so i ahve them
[08:02] <genii> elYase: ssh is NOT sshd   sshd is the server
[08:02] <zelva> I wait week for answer
[08:02] <zelva> And nothing
[08:02] <sipior> zelva: try contacting Canonical directly; i'm sure they can sort you out
[08:02] <elYase> genii, ok, but the other machine can conect to me
[08:02] <elYase> genii, ok, but the other machine cant conect to me
[08:02] <aantn> !apt-install
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <bruenig> StFS, run "blkid" to get the UUID if your disk, iirc it is meant to try to get out of the sometimes odd circumstances of drives being given different names during kernel upgrades when they change how things are named in stuff in the kernel, although in that function it is still kind of pointless I would say
[08:03] <serenityUK> StFS, UUID  is the new way of doing /dev/hda  etc  because  they can change when you unplug things....   use   sudo  blkid to find the UUID
[08:03] <genii> can or can't connect?
[08:03] <genii> elYase: can or can't connect?
[08:03] <elYase> genii, cant
[08:03] <britt> So nobody can say whether Deskbar does or does not work with latest Gutsy for them?
[08:03] <mikl> sipior: I can imagine that webmaster@ gets tons of spam, so mail sent to that address have a chance of beeing lost in "transit"
[08:03] <elYase> genii, it says conection refused on port 22
[08:03] <zelva> sipior: Do you know a chat for administrators?
[08:03] <sipior> mikl: quite so
[08:03] <bruenig> britt, wrong channel #ubuntu+1
[08:04] <thoreauputic> britt: try asking in #ubuntu+1
[08:04] <sipior> zelva: i don't, sorry
[08:04] <StFS> bruenig, serenityUK: thanks
[08:04] <mikl> britt: my deskbar works wonderfully on Gutsy
[08:04] <sri> serenityUK: so a new user works fine.
[08:04] <zelva> What's #ubuntu+1?
[08:04] <sri> serenityUK: so I have something in my session that is running that is killing everything.
[08:04] <bruenig> zelva, the channel that supports alpha versions
[08:04] <mikl> zelva: the next version of Ubuntu
[08:04] <elYase> who can help me conect 2 ubuntu machines so that i can copy a file from one to another
[08:05] <zelva> thank you
[08:05] <thoreauputic> zelva: channel for 7.10 - gutsy
[08:05] <serenityUK> sri,    is it gnome session?
[08:05] <zelva> Do you know a channerl for administrators ubuntu webs?
[08:05] <mikl> zelva: since the name changes for every release, Ubuntu+1 is used as a general designator for the next release
[08:05] <sri> serenityUK: no because xfce crashes too
[08:05] <sri> serenityUK: it's something that is common to both that is running that is causing the problem
[08:06] <Enul> does anyone know if there is a linux driver for the ati all in wonder ve tv card?
[08:06] <sri> serenityUK: so I have something running that both picks up while running..
[08:06] <genii> /back
[08:06] <genii> bah
[08:06] <trumpas> Could not open the file /home/vaidas/Desktop/atiler-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run using the Western (ISO-8859-15) character coding.
[08:06] <mikl> genii: welcome /back :)
[08:06] <sri> serenityUK: and I can't find out because the session daemon is not running.. a bit of a chicken and egg problem.
[08:07] <genii> mikl: heh
[08:07] <Bo1> how do i install GeForce fx 5200 step by step?
[08:07] <serenityUK> sri,    hmmm..  i  know that gnome startup   is in the  ~/.config/autostart folder....  maybe  try renaming that folder or moving the contents temporarily
[08:07] <elYase> any body can help me connect
[08:07] <sri> serenityUK: yeah I blew that away already or moved it off.
[08:07] <thoreauputic> !nvidia | Bo1
[08:07] <ubotu> Bo1: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:07] <genii> elYase: Are the two machines connected through a switch or hub, or are they separated in between someplace by a router for instance.
[08:07] <sri> serenityUK: although xfce4-autostart-editor seems to have it.
[08:07] <linux4me> how do i find where a port was opened on my ubuntu box?
[08:08] <sri> I wonder if it it is the powermanage daemon
[08:08] <Bo1> thoreauputic:yeah
[08:08] <mikl> linux4me: that does not compute - do you want to know what opened the port, or what it's open for or...?
[08:08] <Dumptruck> is gaming on linux just about impossible?  I have been so excited playing with Ubuntu the last few weeks and I have everything working that I would want to use in windows (except realplayer - sound issues) but my special lady misses the games of windows.  I tried virtualbox and vmware server - no 3d acceleration and cedega which kills all of my sound) any other suggestions?  and how do I fix the sound on realplayer?
[08:08] <serenityUK> sri,   what about  /var/log/Xorg.0.log  or similar?   there must be an eroor message somewhere
[08:08] <genericnick> anyone know what this error means? : beryl-manager 24603 CRITICAL: cant execute beryl-xgl: Success
[08:09] <genii> elYase: Because you may need to open up or forward port 22
[08:09] <elYase> genii, well i dont really know the diference but i can tell you that i connect with a Fedora machine that is in the same conditions, that is in the same local network
[08:09] <sri> serenityUK: no error that I could see.. let me look again.
[08:09] <poningru_> orlug
[08:09] <mikebot> I'm trying to use 'wget' to save a page and all the links on the page, but I'm having trouble getting it to save more than one page... I've been using -r -l 2 -k
[08:09] <mikebot> Anyone knoe how I can make it work?
[08:09] <genii> elYase: OK, so in same local network.
[08:10] <mikl> mikebot: man wget - an excellet reference
[08:10] <iKm> hi all
[08:10] <tom47> kljh
[08:10] <candyban> mikebot: you want it to automatically "mirror" a site?
[08:10] <epp> what is the eyec andy ubuntu channel?
[08:10] <iKm> i have a problem installing ubuntu on a old pc
[08:10] <serenityUK> sri,   or maybe  launch    startx     from a console then it should tell you the error message.... you might need to kill gdm first
[08:10] <candyban> mikebot: because it has a mirror option :)
[08:10] <britt> sri: Odd ... mine locks up.
[08:10] <thoreauputic> epp: #ubuntu-effects
[08:10] <tom47> #ubuntu-effects?
[08:10] <epp> thoreauputic, thx bro
[08:11] <elYase> genii, yea
[08:11] <iKm> it is a amd duron 1,2ghz with 128mb ram
[08:11] <mikebot> candyban: Basically, there is a page with like 50 links
[08:11] <sri> serenityUK: yeah, I'll try that.. although I've done it with xinit.. and it didn't really give me anything
[08:11] <mikebot> candyban: I just want to save the main page with the 50 linked pages
[08:11] <sport> ikm are u talking about install?
[08:11] <ubunturos> I'm unable to run compiz on 6.06 after installing compiz-gnome and compiz
[08:11] <sri> serenityUK: and it kills all login sessions when ithappens so I have log back in again on console.
[08:11] <linux4me> mik1, what opened the port and how do I open another port
[08:11] <casey_lap> where's the official "how to upgrade to gutsy" page?
[08:11] <|FrOstiE|> iKm u shouldnt have a problem
[08:11] <timposey> Can anyone help me using test disk to recover a lost partition?
[08:11] <Enul> what is compiz?
[08:11] <ubunturos> can anyone point me to a stepwise guide to start it
[08:11] <ubunturos> ?
[08:11] <jrib> casey_lap: ubuntu.com/testing  but ask future gutsy questions in #ubuntu+1
[08:11] <iKm> i know it is strange
[08:11] <casey_lap> jrib: thanks
[08:12] <bentob0x> what rights and groups should be on the folders within /usr/local/games/ for users to be able to run them?
[08:12] <|FrOstiE|> yes
[08:12] <iKm> it is not an install problem
[08:12] <majorjrk> I need to use intel native wifi drivers, and then i suppose i need to recompile the kernel, will this be a problem in ubuntu, could it cause problems with anything (f.ex apt-get etc), i dont have a clue but just wanna make sure
[08:12] <jrib> bentob0x: probably 755
[08:12] <genii> elYase: And on the machine you are trying to connect to when you do sudo ps ax|grep sshd     you see it running?
[08:12] <Kogs> hey, trying to get my keybard to type in French (Canada) (using Breezy). I added the language support, but can't seem to figure out how to switch to it.
[08:12] <iKm> the gui start to load
[08:12] <mikl> bentob0x: try the games group :)
[08:12] <iKm> but stop indefinitely
[08:12] <serenityUK> sri,   you can kill gdm by     sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop      then try  startx
[08:12] <genii> elYase: Not the one trying to connect but the ssh server
[08:12] <|FrOstiE|> did u test the cd
[08:13] <iKm> yes
[08:13] <|FrOstiE|> and ???

[08:13] <elYase> genii, yea it is running
[08:14] <|FrOstiE|> does live cde work iKm
[08:14] <|FrOstiE|> cd*
[08:14] <sri> serenityUK: weird, I got it working
[08:14] <sri> serenityUK: when I got rid of the autostart stuff it seems to work fine
[08:14] <iKm> no
[08:14] <sri> serenityUK: but I had to use xfce's autostart editor.
[08:14] <iKm> i just select the first option
[08:14] <iKm> it load something
[08:14] <Kogs> timposey, I'm trying to get the button on the tray, but can't find it heh
[08:15] <serenityUK> sri,   did you find the culprit?  add anything recent?
[08:15] <ubunturos> where do I start compiz from using the GUI?
[08:15] <|FrOstiE|> and then it just stop iKm
[08:15] <timposey> Kogs, I thought just maybe you were missing that, I don't remember doing anything special to get it there let me look for a moment..
[08:16] <iKm> than desktop became cyan
[08:16] <iKm> or som,ething like that
[08:16] <Bo1> how do i install GeForce fx 5200 step by step?
[08:16] <timposey> Kogs did you add it under keyboard preferences?
[08:16] <serenityUK> ubunturos, you start  compiz  using the command     compiz --replace    if you mean start it when you boot up  goto System->Prefs->Sessions and add a Startup command for   compiz --replacce
[08:16] <iKm> and after 4hours the dwsktop is still cyan
[08:16] <|FrOstiE|> try more ram
[08:17] <timposey> Does anyone know how to recover a lost partition using testdisk?
[08:17] <mikebot> When I try to wget, the only files I get are tomeout.aspx and robots.txt
[08:17] <serenityUK> ubunturos,   replace not replacce lol
[08:17] <Kogs> timposey, got it. Thanks
[08:17] <Dumptruck> how do I make a dual boot machine with ubuntu?
[08:17] <ubunturos> serenityUK: compiz --replace isn't doing what its supposed to
[08:17] <Crustacean-BOB> Can anyone here help me with festival?
[08:17] <iKm> you think the problem is the ram?
[08:17] <JDLimbo> need a little help to install a patch - where do I put this? --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/92528
[08:17] <|FrOstiE|> could be
[08:17] <jrib> mikebot: is robots.txt telling wget to ignore stuff?
[08:17] <iKm> i was reading that min required is 128
[08:17] <Ray_at_UW> Does anyone have a link to how to turn on root for ubuntu? I Need to install something but I don't think I can "sudo" every single step?
[08:17] <ubunturos> serenityUK:  it returns this  compiz.real: No composite extension
[08:17] <|FrOstiE|> but sure ur sis 128
[08:18] <|FrOstiE|> is*
[08:18] <furenku> hello! how can i install the nvidia module to be used by xserver??
[08:18] <mikebot> jrib: It has disallow
[08:18] <serenityUK> ubunturos,   do you have your 3D drivers set up?
[08:18] <|FrOstiE|> ram does drop
[08:18] <ubunturos> serenityUK: you mean xserver-xgl?
[08:18] <beast> hi, I install the domino theme but I don't really know how to access it through the theme manager. Any help?
[08:18] <mikebot> jrib: When I refresh the actual page, and run wget again, I end up getting the index, but none of the linked pages
[08:18] <Crustacean-BOB> !festival
[08:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about festival - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:18] <Ray_at_UW> !root
[08:18] <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
[08:18] <iKm> i have windows in the other partition and it say 120mb ram
[08:18] <serenityUK> ubunturos,   it depends on your card
[08:18] <|FrOstiE|> i have 128 but over the years its gone to 116
[08:18] <JDLimbo> ubunturos, http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/8/26/The-best-way-to-install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-Feisty <-- that guide worked for me last night without a single hitch
[08:19] <iKm> ah k
[08:19] <|FrOstiE|> thenur losing ram
[08:19] <ubunturos> serenityUK: I have a SiS 650 card with 16 MB of shared memory
[08:19] <mikebot> jrib: Also, the page I'm trying to get ends in:    .aspx?SID=64702
[08:19] <iKm> k
[08:19] <jrib> mikebot: if you want wget to ignore robots.txt, google for 'wget faq'.  If you want wget to followlinks then you need to tell wget to be recursive
[08:19] <Crustacean-BOB> Ray_at_UW You can make your own root password but you can't login from boot screen
[08:19] <iKm> i think i need to find someone that have an old ram
[08:19] <iKm> pc133
[08:19] <Dumptruck> and how do I start beryl?
[08:19] <jrib> Ray_at_UW: what do you need to install?
[08:19] <ubunturos> JDLimbo: that's for 7.04 - and it is compiz fusion. Thanks for the link anyway
[08:19] <furenku> hello! how can i install the nvidia module to be used by xserver??
[08:20] <tomasz__> hey everyone, I need a hand with my keyboard (BTW, sorry about the language I`m not american or english), I`ve got Tracer Illuminator and I can`t get it to shine, when ubuntu stoped loading light is still on, but just when I click the CapsLock it turns off, and I have totally no idea howto make it work correct
[08:20] <Crustacean-BOB> Dumptruck: Sudo apt-get install beryl
[08:20] <jrib> !nvidia > furenku (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:20] <mikebot> jrib: I used these options: -r -l 2 -k
[08:20] <Dumptruck> oh it is installed
[08:20] <mikebot> jrib: Wouldn't that make it recursive to a depth of 2?
[08:20] <ryanakca> What's the appropriate software to convert from .ram to .mp3?
[08:20] <Dumptruck> I just wanted to know how I start it
[08:20] <Crustacean-BOB> Dumpteruck go to a shell type beryl
[08:20] <Crustacean-BOB> Enter
[08:20] <|FrOstiE|> iKm i can`t be certain it is your ram
[08:20] <jrib> mikebot: yes

[08:21] <iKm> tnx |FrOstiE|
[08:21] <|FrOstiE|> mine didnt install with 116 ram
[08:21] <Crustacean-BOB> Does anybody here use festival?
[08:21] <serenityUK> ubunturos,   i know it worked with my old 64mb card i don't know if 16mb is enough.. can you run  the open GL screensavers?
[08:21] <CHILY> beryl works perfectly but not compiz fusion :S
[08:21] <|FrOstiE|> no probs
[08:21] <Crustacean-BOB> Jan_in: whats up?
[08:21] <majorjrk> Can anyone tell me wheter or wheter not recompiling the kernel in ubuntu could cause problems with other things like apt-get and such ?
[08:21] <candyban> Jan_in: I think it's best if you explain specific problems
[08:21] <ubunturos> serenityUK: let me try
[08:21] <jrib> mikebot: if you have to login, then you'll probably end up downloading the login page
[08:21] <beast> I installed the domino theme but I don't really know how to access it through the theme manager. Can anyone please help?
[08:21] <ryanakca> majorjrk: it shouldn't
[08:21] <Dumptruck> that worked - but I lost access to the borders of my windows
[08:21] <candyban> majorjrk: no ...
[08:22] <candyban> majorjrk: as long as you get it to boot properly :)
[08:22] <Crustacean-BOB> Jan_in: please explain?
[08:22] <serenityUK> Dumptruck, try     emerald  --replace
[08:22] <Jan_in> ok
[08:22] <mikebot> jrib: But it actually downloaded the front page of what I want... cause I loggoed into it from Opera and then tried wget..
[08:22] <iKm> |FrOstiE|: isn't a way to install ubuntu w/o starting the live cd?
[08:22] <Jan_in> but wheni want to boot from hard disc
[08:22] <Jack_Sparrow> ryanakca: ram - a text file that contains a link to the Internet address where the Real Audio file is stored. The .ram file contains no audio data itself.
[08:22] <Jan_in> ups
[08:22] <Dumptruck> I haven't been able to get emerald to work
[08:22] <|FrOstiE|> sure
[08:22] <sri> serenityUK: no I haven't found what it was.
[08:22] <Jan_in> i just installed server edition
[08:22] <tomasz__> to all: I really can`t get it working, so you know, help me with the keyboard , please
[08:22] <ubunturos> serenityUK: yes. I can
[08:22] <JDLimbo> need a little help to install a patch - what do I do with this? --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/92528
[08:22] <jrib> mikebot: did you try telling it to ignore robots.txt?
[08:22] <mikebot> jrib: No, how do I do that?
[08:22] <sri> serenityUK: I had a NX session yesterday that crashed when I was logging in remotely.
[08:23] <Jan_in> can we go to private chat pls?
[08:23] <jrib> mikebot: it's in the "wget faq"
[08:23] <candyban> Jan_in: why?
[08:23] <|FrOstiE|> u can get a full install iKm
[08:23] <sri> serenityUK: I came in later to find the machine at a the login screen.. and having trouble .
[08:23] <Dumptruck> when I started beryl manager I lost the beryl goodness
[08:23] <|FrOstiE|> sure u can ??
[08:23] <Jan_in> cos here is a lot of people
[08:23] <Crustacean-BOB> She's embarrassed...
[08:23] <candyban> Jan_in: more people who can help (and learn)
[08:23] <[acl] > Jan_in, so? :)

[08:23] <|FrOstiE|> anyone got link for ubuntu install cd
[08:23] <ryanakca> Jack_Sparrow: ah, ok, thanks
[08:23] <mikebot> jrib: Oh, I think that did it, cause it's download a bunch of stuff.
[08:23] <ubunturos> in KDE, I tried kwin --replace=compiz and the title bar and stuff disappeared
[08:23] <|FrOstiE|> not live  cd
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ryanakca: You could have found that info like I just did with a quick Goole search

[08:29] <|FrOstiE|> guh let me chech

[08:29] <ubunturos> CHILY: ogh
[08:29] <CHILY> very strange
[08:29] <serenityUK> ubunturos,   it is a promising sign if you can run the 3D GL screensavers.. but sorry I only know nvidia.. I suggest you search for your card on www.ubuntuforums.org
[08:29] <ubunturos> yes
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: if you "forgot" your root password, there is a simple way to reset it :)
[08:29] <Jan_in> no i didnt
[08:29] <ubunturos> serenityUK: ok, thanks
[08:29] <Jan_in> i can type my username
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[08:29] <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
[08:29] <elYase> who can help me copy a file from one Ubuntu machine to another?
[08:29] <Jan_in> then it promps me for password
[08:29] <Bo1> how do i install GeForce fx 5200 step by step?
[08:29] <Jan_in> but i cant type it
[08:29] <praet> CHILY: try alt+f2 then type emerald --replace (for emerald or gtk-window-decorations --replace
[08:29] <herbaliser> elYase use ftp, scp, nfs,...
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: so you have a problem with vmware (you can't type)?
[08:29] <furious_gerbil> how do I theme the taskbars?
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Jan_in: JUst type it and hit enter... it doesnt show you anything
[08:29] <jrib> mikebot: you have to change wget's user agent and/or tell wget to load the cookies from your browser
[08:29] <|FrOstiE|> iKm----->>>> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[08:29] <Jan_in> yes
[08:29] <Pici> !who
[08:29] <ubotu> 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 :)
[08:29] <elYase> herbaliser, doesnt work, it is not preinstalled in Ubuntu
[08:29] <CHILY> praet, that doesn't help :(
[08:29] <mikebot> jrib: How do I do those things?
[08:29] <Ray_at_UW> How do I install java for Firefox? The FAQ isn't very helpful. It only lists a bin and that's it.
[08:29] <thoreauputic> !java
[08:29] <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
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: I'm not familiar with vmware ... perhaps you should check #vmware or so?
[08:29] <Bo1> ray_at_uw:i can tell you how
[08:29] <mikebot> jrib: Oh I gotta use firefox for that... OK, I'll give it a try.. thanks.
[08:29] <furious_gerbil> !themes
[08:29] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[08:29] <praet> CHILY: sorry that should be: try alt+f2 then type gtk-window-decorator --replace
[08:29] <Dumptruck> ahh... I got emerald working
[08:29] <herbaliser> Jhttp://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_copy_files.2Ffolders_from_remote_Ubuntu_host_into_local_machine_.28scp.29
[08:29] <Jan_in> donno...is this bug in wmware?
[08:29] <herbaliser> elYase
[08:29] <Dumptruck> you guys are very helpful
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: if vmware does it's thing correctly, you should be able to enter your username
[08:29] <jrib> mikebot: first one, I don't remember (check man wget or the faq again), the second is --load-cookies=/path/to/cookies.txt (in your profile folder somewhere under ~/.mozilla for firefox)
[08:29] <aantn> !ftp
[08:29] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[08:29] <herbaliser> just install ssh
[08:29] <Dumptruck> It's appresiated
[08:29] <daedra> The maladies of strangers fascinate me to the point of me adopting them
[08:29] <elYase> herbaliser, yuo mean openssh package?
[08:29] <Jan_in> i am able to type username, but not password
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: didn't you have ssh installed?
[08:29] <aantn> !gftp
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:29] <CHILY> praet, none of that works :(
[08:29] <Ray_at_UW> Bo1: Thanks, I'll send you a PM
[08:29] <Jan_in> donno what ssh is
[08:29] <herbaliser> yes read documentation it is in there how to do it
[08:29] <mikebot> jrib: Thanks.
[08:29] <elYase> herbaliser, i already did it but it says "conection refused on port 22"
[08:29] <aantn> !gFTP
[08:29] <candyban> Jan_in: you installed ubuntu on vmware on windows?
[08:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Jan_in: when you type tha password you do not see anything showing up on the screen... that is normal...  just type your password and hit enter
[08:29] <an0malist> anyone know if the proftpd installed with apt-get in feisty supports mysql out of the box?
[08:29] <Dumptruck> ok one last little issue I am having - how do I get the sound to work with realplayer or is there something similar to the realalternative codec for linux?
[08:29] <candyban> Jack_Sparrow: he said he couldn't type in his username either
[08:29] <Jan_in> i cant
[08:29] <Jan_in> yes
[08:30] <Jan_in> yes i installed ubuntu on wmware on windows
[08:30] <Jack_Sparrow> candyban: I thought they were able to enter the user name
[08:30] <Rover_> WHAT
[08:30] <mikebot> jrib: Where is the mozilla folder?
[08:30] <jrib> mikebot: ~ means /home/your_user
[08:31] <jrib> mikebot: and stuff that starts with a . is hidden so go to view -> show hidden or press ctrl-h
[08:31] <mikebot> jrib: Oh, OK, thanks.
[08:31] <mikebot> thanks
[08:31] <herbaliser> elYase: firewall?
[08:31] <herbaliser> in between to machines or on the machine you are trying to ssh to
[08:31] <Bo1> ray_at_uw:frist go to your "system" then "administrator" then open "synaptic package manger" click search" type firefox then install "j2re mozilla"
[08:32] <candyban> Jan_in: if you are unable to type your username, it's a vmware problem (inputs) ... (not sure how come it prompts for a password if you have no input though)
[08:32] <elYase> herbaliser, how do i check that, i cant tell you i can connect to other machine (Fedora) in the same network without problem
[08:32] <herbaliser> the remote server what is it ubunut server?
[08:32] <Bo1> how do i install GeForce fx 5200 step by step?
[08:32] <Jan_in> ok tnx
[08:33] <Jan_in> and i have another question....when i select slovenian keybord i cant type anything, but if i choose U.S., i can
[08:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: If you read the instructions... where did you stop or NOT understand them.  They are no different than the instructions we would type in manually here.
[08:34] <herbaliser> elYase first check on remote server if ssh is running ps -ef | grep ssh  shoudl give you sshd (daemon)
[08:34] <Charlote> hi all
[08:34] <|FrOstiE|> http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
[08:34] <candyban> elYase: also check "netstat -ntpl | grep ssh" (just in case it's running on a different port)
[08:34] <Ray_at_UW> bo1: nevermind. I figured it out myself.
[08:35] <Charlote> i have a little problem w/ my laptop and ubuntu

[08:36] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:can you write a text for me ill do rest.
[08:36] <iKm> !java
[08:36] <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
[08:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: You have shown NO interest in fixing it per the instructions we took a lot of time to write out.
[08:36] <Charlote> well i just bought a brend new laptop hp 6000z and first thig that i did was to partisioned the hard drive and install ubuntu
[08:36] <candyban> elYase: you have it running on port 443? (which is https)
[08:36] <Charlote> every thing works out form the box
[08:36] <Charlote> ecept my wirless
[08:36] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:so if it take long to write that, then it is going to be hard for me right?
[08:36] <elYase> candyban, i dont know, it says that
[08:36] <candyban> elYase: try connecting to that port (or reconfigure it in /etc/ssh/sshd_config)
[08:37] <Charlote> and my memory card reader

[08:37] <Charlote> i start reading the forum
[08:37] <mikebot> *Damn
[08:37] <Charlote> but is soo complicated for a girl
[08:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: Nvidia are very easy... but there are many cards... it isnt hard... just read the instructions... and ask a question when you dont understand one of the things they tell you to do.
[08:37] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:can you find some1 that has installed it?
[08:38] <elYase> candyban, how do i do to reread the /etc/ssh/sshd_config once i have changed it?
[08:38] <Charlote> and i really like my ubuntu
[08:38] <Charlote> and i want to make ot work
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> I have a 5200 as well as a 6600 and many others here all work fine...

[08:38] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:can you send me a link  that helped you.
[08:38] <masamune> best app I found so far is automatix
[08:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: You have been told that for several hours... if you get stuck, ask a well formed question about what you cant figure out
[08:39] <candyban> Charlote: I don't have a lot of experience with wireless, but you can always try the ndis wrapper ... that usually works
[08:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !nvidia
[08:39] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[08:39] <bibekpaudel> there are some unresolved dependencies and apt-get cant install them

[08:40] <mzanfardino> what files would I change if I wanted to change my server hostname?

[08:40] <candyban> bibekpaudel: did you check all your sources? (you could try adding universe/multiverse/...)
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: Start with the one I just linked here... find your card maker then the chipset...  You need to do some reading.
[08:40] <bibekpaudel> candyban, i have added universe and multiverse, but still i have the problem

[08:52] <Krusty> lol next version of Ubuntu: Krusty Krunch ;)
[08:52] <ChuckFu> is it a big deal to install Ubnuntu with Raid 1
[08:52] <Adlai> you know
[08:52] <Adlai> I was really hoping, just for a little bit, but really, really hoping
[08:52] <ChuckFu> that would of course be a hardware RAID 1
[08:52] <sooth> CountX: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTracHowto or http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracOnUbuntu
[08:52] <Adlai> that the next version would be Hungry Hippo
[08:52] <BlindSide> lool
[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: What version of Ubuntu are you using
[08:52] <candyban> CountX: apt-get install trac subversion ... to create the svn repository ... svnadmin --create --fs-type fsfs /svnroot ... and use the trac docs
[08:52] <CountX> sooth: ive tried the tut on trac's site, i keep running into problems
[08:52] <Charlote> anybody

[08:53] <|FrOstiE|> me too Jan_in
[08:53] <UncleD> Im trying to update "update-manager" and keep getting the error: ImportError: No module named pygtk
[08:54] <sooth> CountX: I've never set up trac, so I probably can't help you, but for someone else to be able to help you, you need to be very specific with your problem.
[08:54] <Jan_in> :P
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: Type in a terminal                     lsb_release -a

[08:54] <CountX> sooth: ok well i followed the tutorial as best i could until i ran into a problem with apache
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: You will see you are using feisty...
[08:54] <CountX> sooth: it says to run sudo apache2ctl restart, but that returns an error
[08:54] <candyban> Jan_in: congratulations ... you are now logged in into your system
[08:55] <Jan_in> really? but...how can i...go to desktop
[08:55] <candyban> Jan_in: You installed the "server" ... which is without a desktop
[08:55] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35694/plain/
[08:55] <Jan_in> but how can i use apache and myswl?
[08:55] <sooth> CountX: Which tutorial? What is the error?
[08:55] <airwaffle> Even though no one is interested in my questions, here is the answer if anyone else is having similar ipod mounting issues
[08:55] <candyban> Jan_in: if you want to use linux, you should get a different mindset
[08:55] <airwaffle> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3281652#post3281652
[08:56] <xbehave> xorg restarts everytime i login, and i get an error to do with xauth locking ~/.xauthority when i startx while already loged in
[08:56] <CountX> sooth: the one on the trac website, for ubuntu server 7.04
[08:56] <profanephobia> Jan_in, i would just install the gui by sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop (i believe)
[08:56] <candyban> Jan_in: in windows, you install software and then ask what you can do with it, in linux you should first ask what you want to do and then install software to do it
[08:56] <serenityUK> ironmatar     the missing lib.so  is normal  you can boot up now?
[08:56] <abhi> I want to make pcmanfm as my default file manager. how can i do it?
[08:57] <serenityUK> ironmatar     i have missing .so it never stopped it working for me
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Bo1: If you went to this page   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto  and selected nvidia.. It takes you to this page  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia   You are using 7.04 and the instructions are right there... I have no idea where you are getting that other info you pasted...
[08:57] <candyban> Jan_in: use the live cd or install a (k)ubuntu desktop (not server)
[08:57] <Jan_in> :D
[08:57] <sooth> CountX: And what is the error you get?
[08:57] <Jan_in> ok
[08:57] <sausage1337> hi, what's a command to open a tar.gz file? i tried "tar file.tar.gz" but it said "tar: Old option `g' requires an argument." how do i extract the contents of the tar.gz file?
[08:57] <Jan_in> but can i install apache on desktop version?
[08:57] <candyban> Jan_in: if you're just curious what it looks like :)
[08:57] <candyban> Jan_in: sure
[08:57] <profanephobia> Jan_in, yeah as well as mysql
[08:57] <candyban> Jan_in: and it won't cost you anything more :)
[08:58] <UncleD> courier is causing unmet dependiencies problems on apt-get -f install. Any idea how to fix it?
[08:58] <Pici> sausage1337: tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz
[08:58] <candyban> Jan_in: server is a stripped down version as mostly server admins don't want to waste resources on something as a "graphical environment"
[08:58] <Samui> sausage: tar -xvzf file.tar.gz
[08:58] <Jan_in> ok tnx, then i'll install desktop version
[08:58] <candyban> Jan_in: different from the windows world huh ;)
[08:58] <Jan_in> tnx for helping me
[08:59] <Jan_in> yeah, it is true:D
[08:59] <CountX> sooth: apache2 couldnt get a server name so its using 127.0.0.1, httpd isnt running, permission denied: make sock: could not bind to adress 0.0.0.0:80 no listining sockets available, shutting down unable to open logs
[08:59] <candyban> Jan_in: desktop = server + graphical stuff + other useless stuff (openoffice, video players, browsers, ...)
[08:59] <ironmatar> ser xorg shuts down on startup
[08:59] <sausage1337> Pici: it worked. thanks.
[09:00] <candyban> Jan_in: useless (from a server point of view :))
[09:00] <ironmatar> i get in to command line
[09:00] <Jan_in> i really like linux now
[09:00] <Jan_in> and...wich one is best?
[09:00] <candyban> Jan_in: ?
[09:00] <Jan_in> wich linux
[09:00] <Jan_in> which
[09:00] <Pici> !best | Jan_in
[09:00] <ubotu> Jan_in: 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.
[09:01] <Jan_in> ok, i see
[09:01] <candyban> Jan_in: like I said ... ask first what you want, then chose
[09:01] <UncleD> Im trying to update "update-manager" and keep getting the error: ImportError: No module named pygtk
[09:01] <Jan_in> yes:D
[09:01] <CountX> how can i access the terminal of my server from a different computer(windows xp)
[09:01] <abhi> is it possible to use pcman file manager in place of nautilus. If yes then how to make it default?
[09:01] <CountX> ^noob question i know...
[09:01] <Carroarmato0> CountX: you could use putty
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: yes
[09:02] <abhi> Jack_Sparrow, : how
[09:02] <candyban> Jan_in: if you want a server, you're best with debian/redhat(centos) ... for desktop ubuntu, fedora, mandrake ... for pvr: knopmyth, linuxmce, ... thousands of flavors
[09:02] <Adlai> CountX: putty or another ssh client
[09:02] <Pici> !putty
[09:02] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: I dont know how to make it the default.. I just put it on the taskbar.
[09:03] <candyban> Jan_in: it's really important to first determine what you want/need and then make your choices (otherwise you'll end up very VERY frustrated)
[09:03] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: I still prefer thunar for the thumbnail images etc..
[09:03] <Adlai> Jan_in: another option is just to try lots of things and see which you like
[09:03] <furious_gerbil> hmm, is AWN runnable on ubuntu?
[09:03] <Carroarmato0> furious_gerbil: yes it is
[09:03] <abhi> Jack_Sparrow, : but when u click the folder, it will open in nautilus.
[09:04] <kbrooks_> help me someone.
[09:04] <bronze> Can " Integrated Intel GMA 950" run beryl?
[09:04] <Jan_in> yeah, i would like to have server on desktop linux
[09:04] <bronze> Does intel have good linux drivers?
[09:04] <profanephobia> kbrooks_, whats the prob
[09:04] <Carroarmato0> bronze: intel has excelent support for linux
[09:05] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: When I click a folder it opens the folder but still in thunar or pcman.
[09:05] <candyban> Jan_in: what kind of server? apache?
[09:05] <candyban> Jan_in: ps. apache also runs on windows (even windows xp)
[09:05] <Jan_in> yeah, i think this is best
[09:05] <Jan_in> i have it now on windows
[09:05] <osxdude|laptop> How do I purge?
[09:05] <Pici> osxdude|laptop: apt-get remove --purge package
[09:05] <abhi> Jack_Sparrow, : I mean to say folder on desktop.
[09:06] <candyban> osxdude|desktop: apt-get remove --purge <sfutff> ... or dpkg --purge <stuff>
[09:06] <kbrooks_> I want wireless, but I don't have a wireless adapter. What is THE best GNU/Linux compatible wireless adapter that is a/b/g enabled?
[09:06] <CountX> gah, i cant log in as root, whats ubuntu's default root pass?
[09:06] <elYase> how can i know if certain hardware components will be compatible under Ubuntu?
[09:06] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: Right... as in the default...
[09:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[09:06] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:06] <elYase> lets say an MSI motherboard
[09:06] <askand> How do I add ubuntu studio repositories to ubuntu?
[09:06] <bronze> Can " Integrated Intel GMA 950" run beryl?
[09:06] <candyban> kbrooks_: I think you should search for ralink chipset
[09:06] <Carroarmato0> bronze: yes it can
[09:07] <bronze> Carroarmato0, like really laggy, or usable?
[09:07] <candyban> kbrooks_: or get a thinkpad (or other laptop which is fully supported)
[09:07] <airwaffle> just a test, can ppl see what I am typing?
[09:07] <CountX> when i run sudo openssh_server, it asks for a password...
[09:07] <profanephobia> kbrooks_, the 3com wireless (3CRWE154A72) should be perfect
[09:07] <osxdude|laptop> hmm...the exact package name?
[09:07] <bobon1100> i keep getting this error from ACX how can i find out what acx is?
[09:08] <CountX> oh crap, now it says its not found
[09:08] <bronze> airwaffle, yes
[09:08] <bobon1100> i forget the d*&$ command
[09:08] <airwaffle> thx
[09:08] <candyban> bobon1100: what command? ;)
[09:08] <CountX> ok...now how do i install openssh?
[09:08] <Carroarmato0> bronze: I'm using Compiz on intel 82865G and everything works like a charm.. GMA 950 should work even beter
[09:09] <CountX> so i can connect to it from my windows laptop, through putty...
[09:09] <bobon1100> candyban, something about grep mod probe or something like that
[09:09] <candyban> CountX: apt-get install ssh
[09:09] <candyban> dmesg ?
[09:09] <candyban> bobon1100: lsmod ?
[09:09] <CountX> candyban: thank you !
[09:09] <Jack_Sparrow> abhi: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease   see if this works
[09:10] <redbawks> Since you mention Thinkpads.  I have a T42 that isn't being used.  Will I be trying to find drivers for days, or will the installer do most of the job for me?
[09:10] <CountX> candyban: omfg thank you, im in with putty now
[09:10] <kbrooks_>  https://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/net/wireless/cards.html
[09:10] <kbrooks_> ^^^ :-)
[09:10] <bobon1100> candyban, yeah that was it
[09:10] <Adlai> redbawks: I think you'll be fine
[09:10] <bobon1100> dont know wtf i was thinking about :P
[09:10] <profanephobia> redbawks, most everything will prolly be ok and installed
[09:11] <candyban> redbawks: most of it should be configured automagically ... but there's always thinkwiki :)
[09:11] <bobon1100> ok, well here is the deal, i get an error asx: IRQ error something about crypto
[09:11] <bobon1100> *acx
[09:11] <candyban> redbawks: I have slappad and fingerprint working :)
[09:11] <bobon1100> acx looks related to my USB, but im not using any of that stuff right now, any ideas?
[09:12] <candyban> thinkpads really rock
[09:12] <redbawks> candyban: excellent
[09:12] <candyban> redbawks: be prepared to do some reading though: www.thinkwiki.org ... excellent site
[09:13] <redbawks> candyban: thanks, I'll do that.
[09:13] <MilitantPotato> I'm installing the latest ATI drivers, i'm a little confused at one step.  The how-to says to run "sudo mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile"   is the uname bit supposed to be my username, or left as is?
[09:13] <candyban> redbawks: bluetooth, irda, ... everything on that thinkpad can be made to work :)
[09:13] <mikebot> Hey, so, I've been trying to use wget, and I've been doing the load cookies and -r commands, but I still can't seem to get all the pages off of this one website...(and I've been ignoring robot)... anyone have any ideas?
[09:13] <profanephobia> MilitantPotato, leave it as is
[09:13] <MilitantPotato> profanephobia: thank you
[09:14] <profanephobia> MilitantPotato, no prob
[09:14] <candyban> MilitantPotato: leave it as it is ... it's a command called "uname -r" ... which outputs the kernel version you are currently using
[09:14] <redbawks> candyban:  i'm looking over thinkwiki now. looks like exactly what i needed.
[09:14] <osxdude|laptop> where can I find all package archives?
[09:14] <candyban> bit late with my reply to MilitantPotato :(
[09:15] <Jan_in> hm...from ubuntu homepage i downloaded desktop edition, but his is live version
[09:15] <Jan_in> where can i get normal version?
[09:15] <mikebot> HelP!
[09:15] <Jan_in> desktop
[09:15] <Pici> Jan_in: Live is the same thing as the desktop.
[09:15] <candyban> Jan_in: yes, it has an icon called "install"
[09:15] <linux4me> where do I find where a port was opened on my ubuntu box? i want to open another port for smtp traffic, port 25 to be specific
[09:15] <Jan_in> so how can i install it?
[09:15] <candyban> Jan_in: but it'll install exactly the same thing on hard disk as you are currently on
[09:16] <candyban> Jan_in: just click on the "install" button ... you should be used to that in windows, no? ;)
[09:16] <bronze> Does nvidia + beryl use XGL OR AIGLX?!?!?!
[09:16] <Jan_in> umm i think in vmware
[09:16] <Jan_in> or is better in windows?
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> It says I need to recompile the kernal after updating the ATI driver, how do I do this
[09:16] <serenityUK> sorry ironmatar i'm cooking..  so did you reinstall the driver after removing the other thing?
[09:16] <candyban> bronze: xgl and aiglx are different implementations ... nvidia+beryl will run both
[09:17] <bronze> ok
[09:17] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  yes
[09:17] <MilitantPotato> bronze: neither, but join #ubuntu-effects to be sure.
[09:17] <ironmatar> serenityUK:  and then reboot and the glx error
[09:17] <candyban> bronze: last time I checked (admittedly was half a year ago or more) xgl was more feature complete
[09:18] <elYase> how do i know my IP address?
[09:19] <candyban> elYase: ifconfig
[09:19] <Jan_in> so...do i have to boot desktop cd first to install? in vmware?
[09:19] <Carroarmato0> elYase: www.whatismyip.com
[09:19] <candyban> elYase: or surf to http://whatismyip.com
[09:19] <elYase> candyban, thnaks
[09:19] <candyban> Jan_in: yes ...
[09:19] <ironmatar> ser dont burn it on my aact :] 
[09:19] <shape> hey guys i have to install my ubuntu distro ..i wish that windows and ubuntu stay on same hd but i don't know how manage the paartition
[09:19] <Carroarmato0> elYase: hey I was first :)
[09:20] <candyban> Jan_in: if you just want to check it out, you can just run it on your regular pc ... if you don't click the install button it won't touch your hard disks
[09:20] <serenityUK> ironmatar  ok maybe you could restore your old xorg.conf and start again...  when you installed it should have made a copy inside  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak   or similar...  you may  find more than one backup copy..
[09:20] <mikebot> Hey, so, I've been trying to use wget, and I've been doing the load cookies and -r commands, but I still can't seem to get all the pages off of this one website...(and I've been ignoring robot)... anyone have any ideas?
[09:20] <shape> could anyone give me a trick?
[09:20] <Talcite> hi guys, there's one point in the boot sequence that takes a very long time, is there a way I can figure out which one?
[09:20] <candyban> Carroarmato0: not from where I'm reading :p ... but you'll get half the credit if you want :)
[09:21] <Carroarmato0> candyban: darn!
[09:21] <profanephobia> shape, i trick for what
[09:21] <candyban> shape: trick for doing what?
[09:21] <MilitantPotato> shape: resize your windows partition to free up several gigs
[09:21] <shape> how manage the partition
[09:21] <candyban> s/i/a/
[09:22] <shape> i'vd odne it
[09:22] <shape> but i've lost everything
[09:22] <shape> so i had to reinstall windows
[09:22] <scipio> shape, defrag your harddrive, backup the important data. start the install from the livecd and use the partiotioning tool there. make a partition for / and one /swap. and read some guides if you're really not sure how to do it
[09:22] <Erikk> hello there
[09:23] <Talcite> can anyone help me out? I'm trying to figure out which part of my boot sequence is stalling
[09:23] <candyban> shape: when you reinstall windows, you can select your drive size, next time make sure it doesn't take the entire disk ... you can also use partition magic
[09:23] <MilitantPotato> Do I need to recompile the kernal after updating my ATI driver?
[09:23] <Talcite> is there a way to disable the splash screen when booting?
[09:23] <brian__> hola
[09:23] <elYase> que vuelta
[09:24] <candyban> shape: to be honest, I wouldn't trust the ubuntu installer to touch a windows partition
[09:24] <CountX> ok ok, i need some help with setting up a trac project to work with apache
[09:24] <elYase> boludo
[09:24] <nandemonai> Talcite, take 'splash' out of the boot line in grub
[09:24] <shape> u're right
[09:24] <brian__> pajarillo
[09:24] <Talcite> nandemonai: thanks
[09:24] <shape> but i have not partion magic
[09:24] <candyban> CountX: you'll need to do some reading (I gave you the command on how to setup svn) ...
[09:24] <Pici> !es | brian__ elYase
[09:24] <linux4me> where can i find some good info on port forwarding?
[09:24] <ubotu> brian__ elYase: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:24] <askand> Anyone here tried the musiceditor wired?
[09:25] <ehird`> So I'm thinking about installing ubuntu (well, xubuntu, but my questions are more general than that right now) on my iMac intel again... I did it before when it was nigh-on impossible to do so, it seems it's easier now
[09:25] <shape> a friend o' mine suggested to use the first slackware install disk with cfdisk
[09:25] <ehird`> So:
[09:25] <ehird`> - what about airport, i want my wireless :)
[09:25] <shape> to make the partition
[09:25] <CountX> candyban: "test: Error
[09:25] <CountX> ([Errno 2]  No such file or directory: '/projects/test/VERSION')"
[09:25] <Pici> !enter
[09:25] <ehird`> - is it still hell to install
[09:25] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:25] <ehird`> Pici: i'm not using enter as punctuation
[09:25] <ehird`> Pici: err, were you referring to me
[09:25] <candyban> shape: you can try to resize it again with the installer ... but don't shoot me if you'll need to reinstall again (just make sure to create your linux partitions before you reinstall windows that time then)
[09:26] <shape> candyban i get it
[09:26] <ChuckFu> is it a big deal to install Ubnuntu with Raid 1
[09:26] <Howitzer> Does anyone know if it's possible to change Firefox's, default win95-style, buttons to the Gnome theme's buttons?
[09:26] <shape> but i've already installed windows
[09:26] <Eltornado> hello
[09:26] <candyban> ChuckFu: it's not that hard (if you know what you're doing) ... if you can't do it with the live, you can surely do it with the alternate install
[09:27] <Talcite> hmm... does anyone know where ubuntu keeps the grub config files?
[09:27] <Talcite> my /boot directory doesn't have it
[09:27] <candyban> Talcite: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:27] <ossurayynot> Talcite, shoud be /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:27] <nandemonai> Talcite, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:27] <Talcite> ahh
[09:27] <Talcite> thanks
[09:27] <nandemonai> ;)
[09:27] <justin420> hello all. does anybody know of a way to MAKE users automatically logout of a GUI session after X amount of period of inactivity?
[09:27] <ChuckFu> candyban it will be a hardware RAD 1
[09:28] <NET||abuse> hey guys.. is there an app like the windows "flashget" for linux?
[09:28] <NET||abuse> something with multiple "jets"
[09:28] <candyban> ChuckFu: real hardware raid or one of those fakeraid ?
[09:28] <ChuckFu> real hardware RAID
[09:28] <MilitantPotato> shape: he said to try the LiveCD installer to resize, but if that fails and you have to re-install windows, make sure you leave 15ish gigs of unpartitioned space for linux, when you re-install windows
[09:29] <candyban> ChuckFu if the chipset is supported by linux, then it should be extremely easy ... sure it's hardware raid? Which chipset?
[09:29] <candyban> if it's real hardware raid, linux will see only 1 device ...
[09:29] <ChuckFu> candyban SAS5/iR PCI Express
[09:29] <NET||abuse> can i set gwget or some curl interface, to connect with multiple connections for a download?
[09:30] <MilitantPotato> brb loading XGL to see if this driver works
[09:31] <Bo1> jack_sparrow:which 1 i install? | linux-restricted-modules
[09:31] <graulich> in OpenOffice, I get text instead of icons on all the buttons. what do I do?
[09:31] <candyban> ChuckFu: like I said, if it's supported (quickly searching google, it should) then there's no problem. It'll see just a single disk
[09:31] <justin420> does anybody know of a way to MAKE users automatically logout of a GUI session after X amount of period of inactivity? anybody? i have found the TMOUT option in /etc/profile but apparently that is only for the console, I was wanting a solution for a GUI session.
[09:31] <ChuckFu> taht great news, I will check it out
[09:32] <mzuverink> If have a Compa nc8430 w. a display adapter that read as a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600, when attempting to install Ubuntu, it will not start up the xserver, stating no screens found, is there a secret to installing with a ati chipset?
[09:32] <graulich> in OpenOffice, I get text instead of icons on all the buttons. what do I do?
[09:32] <Carroarmato0> mzuverink: it's a misterious art ;)
[09:33] <jughead> How can I start my wireless (eth1) at boot time without having the line "auto eth1) in my /etc/network/interfaces file?  Having that line triples my boot time
[09:33] <candyban> mzuverink: startup with the vesa driver
[09:33] <mzuverink> candyban, it wont even start w/ the vesa drivers
[09:34] <candyban> mzuverink: wow ... nice :) ... perhaps you can use the alternate install cd? (it uses text-mode) ...
[09:35] <candyban> mzuverink: once you are booted in your new ubuntu system, you can install fglrx
[09:35] <candyban> if it supports the x1600 ...
[09:35] <mzuverink> yeah, I guss Ill have to try that, hate to put vista back on this machine....thanks
[09:36] <justin420> osxdude|laptop: maybe sudo apt-get remove --purge vmware-player?
[09:36] <graulich> how do I get icons to show up in openoffice? all I get is text on all buttons.
[09:36] <ruben> Hello, sometime seen youtube firefox crashes, any idea hot fix it? it is normal?

[09:37] <onexused> I used to be able to use kppp to connect to the internet, but now after uninstalling the slmodem packages (I have a 3Com modem now), it freezes at 'looking for modem.'  I've tried  reinstalling it, but that doesn't help. Wvdial still works.  What can I do?
[09:37] <justin420> does anybody know of a way to MAKE users automatically logout of a GUI session after X amount of period of inactivity? anybody? i have found the TMOUT option in /etc/profile but apparently that is only for the console, I was wanting a solution for a GUI session.
[09:37] <Blindet> is there any general NP plugins for xmms that has hotkeys and works with almoust any program, like amip?
[09:38] <Talcite> hmm... has anyone here had experience with the ipw3945?
[09:38] <Talcite> It's the device that's eating nearly 40 seconds of my boot time
[09:38] <osxdude|laptop> justin420, gnuskool, I hear it is an extensive process
[09:38] <osxdude|laptop> which I have time for
[09:39] <timposey> I had a dualboot system with 2 disk drives and I removed the windows drive... now my system is trying to boot from hd1,0 and I have to go in manually to edit and change it to hd0,0 every time I boot can someone tell me how to reset this with grub?
[09:39] <gnuskool> osxdude|laptop, soz wasnt aware of that, what i gave you removes programs and relate config files
[09:39] <osxdude|laptop> yah
[09:39] <osxdude|laptop> gnuskool np
[09:40] <onexused> timosey: once you successfully boot, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to reflect the correct changes
[09:41] <candyban> timposey: hd0,0 and hd1,0 or hd0,0 and hd0,1 ?
[09:41] <ehird`> anyone?
[09:41] <Gyabo> gosh
[09:41] <candyban> ehird`?
[09:41] <timposey> it has hd1,0 and I change it to hd0,0 and it boots
[09:41] <Gyabo> y a du monde
[09:42] <Gyabo> *se cache*
[09:42] <ehird`> So I'm thinking about installing ubuntu (well, xubuntu, but my questions are more general than that right now) on my iMac intel again... I did it before when it was nigh-on impossible to do so, it seems it's easier now
[09:42] <ehird`> - what about airport, i want my wireless :)
[09:42] <ehird`> - is it still hell to install
[09:42] <timposey> candyban:  it has hd1,0 and I change it to hd0,0 and it boots
[09:42] <candyban> use pastebin and paste /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:42] <ehird`> that's what, candyban :p
[09:42] <gnuskool> osxdude|laptop, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=425313
[09:42] <serenityUK> timposey, you need to edit the file as root such as    gksu gedit   /boot/grub/menu.lst
 anyone? ... didn't see you asking a question
[09:43] <gnuskool> osxdude|laptop, apparently you have to boot into recovery console to remove it
[09:43] <ehird`> candyban: welp, i did, those are my questions
[09:43] <deedubb> hello. does anyone know where I might find assistance on setting up open-scsi on ubuntu? the documentation on open-iscsi's website is out of date or the ubuntu package is out of date

[09:45] <insomninja> When trying to install packages with apt-get, it sometimes asks for confirmation (Y/n) or (y/N) and sometimes not, why? Is it because of which repo it pulls the packages from or if it's a big amount of data or something else?
[09:45] <Charlote> i need some help w ndiswrapper pls
[09:45] <omarr_pr> can somebody help me with the broken package?

[09:46] <omarr_pr> hi gnuskool can you help me with broken packages?

[09:46] <timposey> serenityuk:  thanks, I got it edited now to reboot and see if it works...
[09:46] <gnuskool> omarr_pr,whats the problem? what mesage do you get?
[09:46] <Charlote> i have only the instalation cd
[09:47] <Carroarmato0> Badpenguin86: Open your folder until you see the folders you want
[09:47] <Charlote> and i already did that
[09:47] <osmosis> what is the difference between xen i386 and xen PAE ?
[09:47] <Charlote> sudo apt-cdrom add
[09:47] <Ryan52> How can I connect to my network from somewhere else? What I mean is, be able to access my NFS and Samba shares and my Intranet from my laptop when I work from somewhere else?
[09:47] <omarr_pr> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[09:47] <omarr_pr> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[09:47] <omarr_pr> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[09:47] <omarr_pr> or been moved out of Incoming.
[09:47] <candyban> osmosis: one will boot and the other one won't ;)
[09:48] <Edward> hello has anyone here got any experience with open vpn to assist me with please ?
[09:48] <osmosis> candyban: yah...which one is which ?
[09:48] <Charlote> then : sudo apt aptitude install biulding-essentials
[09:48] <serenityUK> Charlote  if you open the sources file  such as       sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     it says  CD rom at the top line...  you need to  enable it by removing a   # sign infront of CDrom
[09:48] <candyban> Edward: sure ... ask your question
[09:48] <Carroarmato0> Badpenguin86: still there?
[09:48] <^futuro> Hi
[09:48] <erUSUL> osmosis: PAE allows 32 bit kernels to adress more RAM (> 1GB)
[09:48] <^futuro> when i start my pc
[09:48] <Charlote> but i need the headers so i can biuld my ndiswrapper corect
[09:48] <Reifster> Hi! Is there any way I can see what commands NetworkManager is running? It feels a bit handicapping not being able to do networking in the console
[09:48] <Edward> i have installed on my server but i am having trouble configuring
[09:48] <Reifster> I presume NetworkManager juts runs iwconfig ...
[09:48] <osfameron> !automatix
[09:48] <^futuro> i must write this code line to works my sound card
[09:48] <omarr_pr> i was trying to install wine
[09:48] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[09:48] <osmosis> erUSUL: is PAE less stable? Why does it say to use i386 on a desktop machine ?
[09:49] <^futuro> #sudo /sbin/modprobe cs4232
[09:49] <^futuro> and
[09:49] <serenityUK> maybe Charlote .. they should be on the cd... it just want to look online for the latest version
[09:49] <Charlote> i have ubuntu installed on my laptop and im traing to fix my wirless problem
[09:49] <eddys> ;)
[09:49] <Charlote> yea
[09:49] <^futuro> #aumix -L
[09:49] <Charlote> how to install them from the cd
[09:49] <erUSUL> osmosis: becouse desktop machines have less memory than servers ;P PAE adds a little overhead in memory operations
[09:49] <Charlote> that is my question
[09:49] <candyban> Edward: explain "trouble" :)
[09:49] <^futuro> I don't want write this line evertime
[09:50] <^futuro> what i can do?
[09:50] <^futuro> thanks
[09:50] <serenityUK> Charlote  can you have a look at       sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     and see if CDROM is enabled at the top line?
[09:50] <omarr_pr> hello
[09:50] <Edward> candyman: is there a good guide on how to configure it ?
[09:50] <osxdude|laptop> gnuskool Sorry for the misunderstanding...I want to install VMWare Server, but I had VMWare Player installed...and since I have removed it it still lies deep in my system. How do I remove VMWare Player COMP
[09:50] <timposey> Is anyone here familiar with using testdisk to find an erased partition?
[09:50] <osxdude|laptop> LETLEY from my computer?

[09:50] <donkym> I'm trying to install a print driver for the hp laserjet 1020, but it doesn't show up in the kde printer wizard is there a different way to install it?
[09:50] <osxdude|laptop> (i pressed enter on accident
[09:50] <Edward> the whole configuration is not making sense to me
[09:50] <serenityUK> Charlote  if it has  a    #   at the CD line then  you need to delete the # save the file
[09:50] <eddys> hello... enyone here that can help me or refer med how to install a intel graficcard?

[09:53] <pmatulis> ^futuro: writing again?  what's wrong with that?
[09:53] <^futuro> everytime in my pc

[09:54] <osxdude|laptop> once again
[09:54] <timposey> osxdude|laptop:  it only did this after I used testdrive to restore a lost partition on a second hard drive.  I didn't change anything in bios... anyidea?
[09:54] <^futuro> start this comand line at boot
[09:54] <eddys> Carroarmato0: yeah somthing like that.
[09:54] <kbrooks_> CharlieSu, use a pastebin
[09:54] <serenityUK> omarr_pr, i don't think wine works properly in 64bit
[09:54] <^futuro> /sbin/modprobe cs4232
[09:54] <^futuro> and
[09:54] <^futuro> aumix -L
[09:54] <^futuro> what i must do?
[09:55] <omarr_pr> ahh maybe thats the problem
[09:55] <osxdude|laptop> timposey...then it might be the BIOS telling you that your hdd is corrupt or something
[09:55] <omarr_pr> how can i check that
[09:55] <Carroarmato0> eddys: hold on a sec...
[09:55] <serenityUK> omarr_pr, are you trying to install via apt-get?
[09:55] <candyban> Edward: if you use the server.conf in the examples page, there is not much you still need to do
[09:55] <nandemonai> ^futuro, add them to /etc/rc.local
[09:55] <timposey> ok.. I'll look elsewhere
[09:55] <kbrooks_> aight, is there any experienced web designer that can help me design a new website?
[09:55] <omarr_pr> yes
[09:55] <Edward> ok thanks the examples are making more sense to me
[09:55] <candyban> Edward: you just have to make sure you have created your /dev/tun0 or /dev/tap0 device
[09:55] <eddys> Carroarmato0: i need to find a guide or somthing thats helps med find and installs a intel driver. its just the generig driver nov.. like 256 colours or somthing ..
[09:55] <eddys> oh tnx
[09:55] <Edward> hopefully i can get this going tonight
[09:56] <nandemonai> ^futuro, That will run what you put there after everything else has finished booting.
[09:56] <candyban> Edward: it's really easy actually
[09:56] <serenityUK> omarr_pr, i have wine installed on my 64bit  but only  via synaptic...  apt-get i had similar error... goto System->Admin->Synaptic  and search for wine
[09:56] <omarr_pr> is when i run : sudo apt-get install wine
[09:56] <Carroarmato0> eddys: Did you do anything to the xorg configurations or... how did you get this problem?
[09:56] <candyban> Edward: also the easy-rsa (just make sure you read and follow the docs)
[09:56] <Bo1> guys i used envy. will is still boot up or is going to crash at booting screen?
[09:56] <ehird`> anyone?
[09:57] <Edward> thanks candyban
[09:57] <candyban> Edward: np
[09:57] <eddys> Carroarmato0 well the thing is that this ubuntu is just installed.. and i dont have eny drivers for my graficcard.. ind i dont know how to install it ;)
[09:57] <Charlote> o read in the forum and i did this:
[09:57] <Charlote> sudo apt-cdrom add
[09:57] <Charlote> sudo aptitude update
[09:57] <Charlote> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[09:57] <Charlote> and installed my essentials form the cd
[09:57] <Charlote> now the question is what to do so i can install linux-headers from the cd
[09:57] <eddys> much easier with freebsd terminal *smiles*
[09:57] <Charlote> and after that i want ro installndiswrapper
[09:58] <lnx_> someone have tried Licq ?
[09:58] <omarr_pr> using synaptic shows me that i have unresolvable dependencies
[09:58] <Carroarmato0> eddys: ok... do this but be careful... open a terminal and enter " sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf "
[09:58] <omarr_pr> they are libasound2
[09:58] <omarr_pr> libc6
[09:58] <omarr_pr> libgcc1
[09:59] <eddys> yeah well im a old freebsd user so im not a linux newbie.. just in x iam.
[09:59] <eddys> hang on
[09:59] <bbrazil> omarr_pr: don't try to pull packages from other versions of the distro
[09:59] <Carroarmato0> eddys: you will be asked for your pass... and then the editor will open.... don't tweak anything for now because if something goes wrong you might not get a graphical interface...
[09:59] <serenityUK> Charlote  the headers will be specific to the kernel you have such as     sudo aptitude install  linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic  or similar
[09:59] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[09:59] <eddys> yeah.. got it
[09:59] <omarr_pr> that dependencies are for the instalation of wine
[09:59] <EvaLuaTe> what do i have to install for 'ncurses' to be available ?
[10:00] <candyban> EvaLuaTe: ncurses5-dev
[10:00] <omarr_pr> bbrazil that dependencies are for the instalation of wine
[10:00] <erUSUL> !find ncurses
[10:00] <ubotu> Found: evms-ncurses, lib64ncurses5, lib64ncurses5-dev, libncurses5, libncurses5-dbg (and 13 others)
[10:00] <Charlote> thanx i have the same karnel
[10:00] <Charlote> i will try now
[10:00] <Carroarmato0> eddys: ok, now scroll down in search for something that looks like your graphics card... something like  "Section Device    Intel Corporation ...."
[10:00] <EvaLuaTe> E: Couldn't find package ncurses5-dev
[10:00] <eddys> Carroarmato0: okey hang on
[10:00] <bbrazil> omarr_pr: where are you pulling it from?
[10:00] <candyban> libncurses5-dev
[10:00] <Carroarmato0> eddys: and tell me what it says in Driver
[10:01] <EvaLuaTe> ohh
[10:01] <omarr_pr> bbrazil from synaptic
[10:01] <EvaLuaTe> thanks guys
[10:01] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[10:01] <bbrazil> omarr_pr: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:01] <toyimp> How do I register my own channel on irc.ubuntu.com?
[10:01] <eddys> hmm yeah found it..
[10:01] <Makky> Linux newbie here: Would anyone mind helping me out with a wireless problem?  My card seems to be supported but no wireless networks are listed for me to connect to.
[10:01] <lnx_> my swap partition need tobe double of my ram memory ?
[10:01] <eddys> Carroarmato0: yeah found it.. it wasent a 810
[10:01] <serenityUK> bbrazil, he is installing wine on 64bit... it's tricky... i've done it but I can't remeber what hack
[10:01] <Charlote> it say that
[10:01] <Charlote> everythinh is done
[10:01] <Carroarmato0> eddys: What does it say as the driver?
[10:01] <jrib> serenityUK: the winehq repos have wine for amd64
[10:02] <serenityUK> that was it!
[10:02] <omarr_pr> bbrazil sorry im a rookie with ubuntu and all of that,how can i do that
[10:02] <timposey> osxdude|laptop:  I found it, the 1234F: code is actually a prompt that after installing a new MBR using testdisk that allows you to enter 1, 2, 3, or 4 to tell the system to boot from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th boot sector... the F key tells the system to boot from floppy... who would have ever thought that...
[10:02] <pike_> lnx_: not really. the general rule is 1.5 or 2 times ram but its up to you
[10:02] <eddys> w8 ill look... hehe kvm switching
[10:02] <Charlote> no packages  will be installed upgreded or removed
[10:02] <t4m1n0> hello there
[10:02] <bbrazil> omarr_pr: goto a terminal, then: cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:02] <pike_> lnx_: personally i go 1 to 1 for swap and ram
[10:02] <Charlote> is that means that my headers are up to date
[10:02] <serenityUK> omarr_pr, you need to go to www.winehq.org   and   look for instructions  to add the  winehq repository for amd64
[10:02] <t4m1n0> wat windows program is good to copy data from ext3 partition ?
[10:02] <osxdude|laptop> timposey kewl
[10:02] <serenityUK> omarr_pr,   then you can install the 64bit version of wine
[10:02] <osxdude|laptop> that is actually cool
[10:02] <t4m1n0> wat windows program is good to copy data from ext3 partition ?
[10:03] <eddys> Carroarmato0: yeah somhting like phics controler : i810"
[10:03] <bbrazil> omarr_pr: it seems likely that you're included sources that you shouldn't have. anything that has problems with libc6 is very very bad
[10:03] <NET||abuse> hm, ok, i've tried d4x and gwget, but neither will catch the cookie or whatever mechanism from easynews, so does anyone have a download manager with split parts options?
[10:03] <serenityUK> jrib, thanks alot mate!   i forgot only a few days ago lol
[10:03] <Carroarmato0> eddys: are you trying to configure a virtual machine perhaps?
[10:03] <eddys> Carroarmato0: driver "i810"
[10:03] <ehird`> nobody can hear me
[10:03] <ehird`> :p
[10:03] <CoasterMaster> !ext3 | t4m1n0
[10:03] <ubotu> t4m1n0: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[10:03] <lnx_> pike_ , why ? ( i did it double )
[10:03] <pike_> t4m1n0: there are drivers for ext but they are not reliable. you have to ask in a windows chan maybe
[10:03] <eddys> Carroarmato0: hmm no no virtual
[10:03] <pike_> lnx_: you just dont use it much on a modern system
[10:04] <eddys> Carroarmato0: just my orderary desktop.
[10:04] <pike_> lnx_: for reg desktop use
[10:04] <serenityUK> Charlote, looks ok have you tried the ndiswrapper yet?
[10:04] <Carroarmato0> eddys:  the drivers you are currently using are correct then. You are using the intel driver and don't need to change it ;)
[10:04] <Charlote> ?
[10:04] <Charlote> now i have ndiswrapper 1.4 on usb, i copied this file to my ububtu machine now what
[10:04] <Charlote> how to install this
[10:05] <eddys> Carroarmato0: okey tnx.. the screen is "generic screen"
[10:05] <Talcite> yay I shaved 40 seconds off my boot time =D
[10:05] <Charlote> i extract the files on my destktop
[10:05] <Charlote> and now
[10:05] <Charlote> which one i have to run????????
[10:05] <masamune> anyone know why it says I am not priveledged to mount my iPod?
[10:05] <Carroarmato0> eddys: you may quit the editor unless you know what you are doing with the xorg configuration file...
[10:05] <eddys> Carroarmato0 i want to have like 1280 x 1024 insted of 800x 600
[10:05] <eddys> hehe
[10:05] <eddys> it sucks in 800
[10:05] <bruenig> masamune, you need to have root privileges to mount stuff
[10:06] <Carroarmato0> eddys: I take you have already tried the Resolution app....?
[10:06] <masamune> thanks, how do I give myself root privileges?
[10:06] <eddys> Carroarmato0 hmm no this is my first time in x ;)
[10:06] <bruenig> !sudo | masamune
[10:06] <ubotu> masamune: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:06] <Carroarmato0> eddys: AAaaah
[10:07] <n00blet> that reminds me
[10:07] <Carroarmato0> eddys: asking for the drivers is a very advanced question you were asking ^^
[10:07] <n00blet> i know you can run sudo
[10:07] <n00blet> but
[10:07] <n00blet> can you actually log in as root
[10:07] <n00blet> in ubuntu
[10:07] <eddys> Carroarmato0 yeah .. hehe
[10:07] <bruenig> !enter | n00blet
[10:07] <ubotu> n00blet: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:07] <Don64> !root
[10:07] <bruenig> n00blet, not by default no
[10:07] <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
[10:07] <t4m1n0> pike_, if u'll ever need it: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[10:07] <Carroarmato0> eddys: just go to System- Preferences -- Resolution
[10:07] <eddys> Carroarmato0: k
[10:07] <candyban> n00blet: sudo -i; passwd
[10:07] <bruenig> n00blet, you can enable the root account but the official line of the channel is that doing so is evil
[10:08] <serenityUK> Charlote, you need a copy of your windows wireless driver too.. do you have that?
[10:08] <eddys> Carroarmato0 yeah.. the max there is 1024 * 768 and 60 hrz
[10:08] <Charlote> yes
[10:08] <serenityUK> Charlote,  somefile.inf
[10:08] <candyban> for the record: I'm not following that "official line" ;)
[10:08] <Carroarmato0> eddys: Is that what you wanted?
[10:08] <Don64> Talcite: how did u shave the time off ur boot up
[10:08] <Charlote> i have ony one worries
[10:08] <eddys> Carroarmato0 like 1280 * 1024
[10:09] <Charlote> how to che that i have linux headers instaled
[10:09] <eddys> Carroarmato0: i have a biiiiig screen
[10:09] <serenityUK> Charlote,  i think you do
[10:09] <Talcite> don64: there was a problem with my ipw3945 setup
[10:09] <Charlote> ok
[10:09] <Don64> ok, i remember ur original question now yhx
[10:09] <serenityUK> Charlote,  you want a guide to install ndiswrapper?
[10:09] <Carroarmato0> eddys: hmm I think that involves some manual labor... I can't help you any ferther... because it involves telling the x server about your monitor...
[10:10] <Makky> serenityUK: Might I ask for your assistance with a wireless problem I'm having?  I believe my wireless card is supported and the driver is installed, but no networks are listed for me.
[10:10] <Don64> *thx
[10:10] <Charlote> so im extracting the ndiswrapper file w" tar zxvf ndis....1.47.tar.gz
[10:10] <eddys> Carroarmato0 well i guess i cant edit the xorg.conf and just insert my resulution un there ;)
[10:10] <bruenig> Makky, do "iwconfig" and see if there are any interfaces with stuff by them
[10:10] <burner_> c remoi et a marche toujours pas
[10:10] <bruenig> !fr
[10:10] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[10:11] <Carroarmato0> eddys: well you could do that... but you have to be careful or the next time you boot you won't get the x server starting unless you re edit the config file the way it was before
[10:11] <Makky> bruenig: I believe it showed my wireless interface with a large chunk of information next to it
[10:11] <eddys> Carroarmato0 yeah som thing u needed to do like a couple of years ago... i did that in redhat 6.2 and stuff.. but dont know how in ubuntu.
[10:11] <eddys> hehe
[10:11] <bruenig> Makky, ok, do "iwlist interface scan" change interface to the real one
[10:11] <Carroarmato0> eddys: ah so you have so experience!
[10:11] <eddys> Carroarmato0 i have a backup on the conf at my usb memory..
[10:11] <Makky> bruenig: Sure, one sec
[10:11] <serenityUK> Charlote,  goto step 3 on this tutorial  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926   you might be able to skip the last 7&8 if you don't use encryption
[10:12] <eddys> Carroarmato0: hehe well ill just go ahead and try.. if u dont have eny more sugestions ;)
[10:12] <Carroarmato0> eddys: ok, so I figure you know your way with bash to restore the conf file then...
[10:12] <eddys> Carroarmato0 yeah ;)
[10:12] <eddys> Carroarmato0 tnx for the help ;)
[10:12] <sear_yoda> i'm looking for a good comparison of linux shells...anyone know of one?
[10:12] <Charlote> yes pls
[10:12] <Charlote> i want quid
[10:12] <eddys> ill be back later and say how it went ;)
[10:12] <eddys> cya
[10:12] <Carroarmato0> eddys: cool... I'd guess entering the resolution you want in the description for your generic screen
[10:12] <Charlote> i tried ones i mess the thing and i reinstalled ubuntu again
[10:13] <Charlote> and now i dont want to do mistakes
[10:13] <eddys> Carroarmato0: yeah ;)
[10:13] <Charlote> i need somebody to guid me
[10:13] <Carroarmato0> eddys: note... this doesn't always work...
[10:13] <Charlote> i know for u guyz is easy
[10:13] <Charlote> but im a girl
[10:13] <nandemonai> Hmm, how do I go about setting the default web browser for X-Chat? It's not taking the system default. (Which is Epiphany not FF)
[10:13] <eddys> Carroarmato0 hehe i know.. hehe cya later.. im off trying now.
[10:13] <eddys> ;)
[10:13] <Charlote> i read the forum
[10:13] <Carroarmato0> eddys: But this issue will be fixed with the new version of Gutsy comming in October.
[10:13] <eddys> ooh
[10:13] <eddys> nice
[10:13] <serenityUK> Charlote,  that's no excuse lol.. it's just practice and reading..
[10:13] <Carroarmato0> eddys: good luck
[10:13] <Charlote> but not everything is clear
[10:14] <Charlote> ok
[10:14] <Carroarmato0> eddys: btw.. I might be away
[10:14] <EvanCarroll> I hope the fonts get a comlete overhaul before gutsy is released. Merge FB puts my DBI at 110, dropping all my default font sizes down to 6, still leaves them entirely too big for my liking.
[10:14] <Talcite> lol I love how C only has like 30 commands. Sure beats java's 15 000 =/
[10:14] <JosefK> can anyone point me to the path where termcap files can be found in gutsy/feisty?
[10:14] <Erikk> hello
[10:14] <Charlote> so i extract the files
[10:14] <EvanCarroll> DPI*
[10:14] <Erikk> how are you..
[10:14] <mitsuhiko> anyone using ubuntu on a new macbook pro?
[10:14] <Charlote> w  tar zxvf
[10:14] <serenityUK> Charlote,  so you want to change to the new directory where you just extracted and  compile....    cd ndiswrapper....      then    sudo make    and  then     sudo make install
[10:14] <mitsuhiko> (new -> nvidia graphics)
[10:14] <Erikk> yes
[10:14] <Erikk> me
[10:15] <bruenig> nandemonai, you set epiphany as the default with alternatives?
[10:16] <nandemonai> bruenig, Settings -> Pref apps. (XFCE)
[10:16] <Charlote> lol
[10:16] <Charlote> i thing this time is ok
[10:16] <Charlote> hot to chek
[10:16] <Charlote> that is installed correct
[10:16] <Mishaal> is there any messenger in ubuntu supports the voice conversation like msn and yahoo messengers???
[10:16] <bruenig> nandemonai, well not sure what that actually does, might try changing the x-www-browser setting with "update-alternatives"
[10:17] <mitsuhiko> Erikk: does it work for you?
[10:17] <bruenig> nandemonai, it might also use gconf, I am not sure though
[10:17] <nandemonai> bruenig, Ahh okies.
[10:17] <serenityUK> Charlote,  that just installs the ndiswrapper program ..... you need to use it with the windows driver after
[10:17] <Charlote> ok
[10:17] <CountX> im getting some weird errors with trac, the main wiki page reads "Oops
[10:17] <Charlote> so which one
[10:17] <CountX> Trac detected an internal error:"
[10:17] <Charlote> i have the vista driver and the xp driver
[10:17] <Charlote> which one is best

[10:19] <LukeEkblad> Hello, dose anyone know of any good free video editing programs?
[10:19] <Charlote> so i have xxxxx.inf and xxxxx.sys
[10:19] <eddys> Carroarmato0: i just added "1280x1024" everywhere infront of "1024*768"

[10:23] <Makky> bruenig: Anything I can do?  I dual-boot XP and Ubuntu from the computer and am able to see my wireless network in XP
[10:23] <serenityUK> Makky, you might need to be root.  such as     sudo  iwlist wlan0 scan
[10:23] <Charlote> and
[10:23] <bruenig> no you don't need to be root
[10:23] <Makky> serenityUK: I'll try that, thanks
[10:23] <zitner> Can anyone help me with why whenever I try to play a video my media player just opens then closes?  All of them, even with the codecs?

[10:33] <JosefK> has anyone here encountered a problem with nuvexport complaining about a missing termcap file when it's run as a MythTV job?
[10:33] <jrib> Great_Briton: right click on the workspace switcher and go to preferences
[10:33] <Makky> serenityUK: Would you have an idea as to why I'm not able to see any wireless networks listed?  My card seems to be supported but I can't even see my home network
[10:33] <Great_Briton> jrib: i'm there
[10:33] <jrib> Great_Briton: "number of workspaces"
[10:34] <serenityUK> Charlote,    try    sudo  ndiswrapper -r somefile.inf
[10:34] <serenityUK> Charlote,    to remove
[10:34] <kazol> If I insert a second HD marked as slave will Ubuntu still be able to boot?
[10:34] <Great_Briton> jrib: aha, the only option available is for show current or all workspaces
[10:34] <Great_Briton> jrib:  i'm on gutsy :/
[10:34] <msa_> helo
[10:34] <jrib> Great_Briton: ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:35] <Great_Briton> jrib: ta, i've never been in there
[10:35] <Charlote> hmm
[10:35] <Charlote> it sais no such file or directory
[10:35] <kazol> Can I dual-boot Feisty and m$ xp on separate HDs?
[10:36] <serenityUK> Makky, so you couldn't se anything with the scan command?
[10:36] <Charlote> im into the directory where my driver is /home/wirless
[10:36] <Yarcanox> how can I deactivate the ubuntu desktop without uninstalling it?
[10:36] <Charlote> should i cd to the directory whre ndiswrapper is ???
[10:37] <Calin24> which is better for a strictly intranet mail server, qmail or sendmail.
[10:37] <jrib> Yarcanox: what do you mean by "deactivate" exactly?
[10:37] <_reflous> vers
[10:37] <Makky> serenityUK: Right, it only shows "No scan results"
[10:37] <Yarcanox> the system should start as fast as possible
[10:37] <serenityUK> Charlote,    ah my mistake.....  you do not add the .inf  at the end when you remove...   just     sudo ndiswrapper -r  filename
[10:37] <Yarcanox> and should take me to a command line login
[10:38] <Makky> serenityUK: if I put sudo before it, it says "Interface doesn't support scanning : No such device"
[10:38] <Yarcanox> without starting the X server
[10:38] <jrib> Yarcanox: system -> administration -> services  tell gdm not to start
[10:38] <Yarcanox> w8 w8
[10:38] <Yarcanox> I need something for the command line
[10:38] <Yarcanox> as I am going to activate the desktop again
[10:38] <serenityUK> Makky, what interfaces can you see when you do     ifconfig
[10:38] <Yarcanox> I can't use GUI commands then
[10:38] <Yarcanox> ^^
[10:38] <jrib> !enter | Yarcanox
[10:38] <ubotu> Yarcanox: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:38] <jrib> !who | Yarcanox
[10:38] <ubotu> Yarcanox: 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 :)
[10:39] <jrib> Yarcanox: then read 'man update-rc.d' or install sysv-rc-conf and use that
[10:39] <Makky> serenityUK: eth0, eth0:avah, lo
[10:39] <Yarcanox> jrib I need something like setting the init level to 3
[10:39] <Yarcanox> and back to 5
[10:39] <crazy6> ok, so if I have an ancient install, 5.04, how do I set it up for network update? I need to at least partially update it so I can have the ability to write a CD of the newest version so I can just install that
[10:39] <Yarcanox> wasn't this possible in the X server config?
[10:39] <Yarcanox> I guess that would be faster
[10:39] <jrib> Yarcanox: no, because 2-5 are the same on ubuntu.  Why do you want to do this?
[10:40] <Yarcanox> on suse this deactivated the X server
[10:40] <nickrud> crazy6, those repos are all gone; but you should be able to just right click an iso you've downloaded and select burn
[10:40] <\oxero> i need a quick opinion, kde or gnome?
[10:40] <jrib> \oxero: try both and use what you like
[10:40] <B-rabbit> what is the command in bash to unpack .gz files?
[10:40] <crazy6> nickrud: negative, cdrecord reports cannot open /dev/sg* , writing process hangs at "Initializing"
[10:41] <Charlote> heyhey hey
[10:41] <Charlote> now how to remove the driver
[10:41] <debugme> does anyone have a core 2 duo w/ cpu scaling working on 7.04?
[10:41] <Charlote> ????????????????///
[10:41] <nickrud> crazy6, then you will need to find a self contained app, since breezy repos (as far as I've seen) been taken down
[10:42] <jrib> B-rabbit: gunzip
[10:42] <nickrud> *have
[10:42] <webtech_m33> hello .. any know of a good ircd program to install on an ubuntu box?
[10:42] <serenityUK> Charlote,    i said i made a mistake.....  you do not add the .inf  at the end when you remove...   just     sudo ndiswrapper -r  filename
[10:42] <sk1t3lles>  Hi I am looking to setup a basic firewall for kubuntu like i want to block X11 ports, disable source routing, icmp packets, syn and smurf attacks, can anyone point me to a site that offers information on doing this for kubuntu or ubuntu
[10:42] <Dumptruck> hello can someone help me with my sound issues?
[10:42] <crazy6> god damnit, why do I always have this chicken & egg problem of install linux, why is it so hard
[10:43] <serenityUK> Makky, hmm  eth0 is for wired network   you should have a wlan0  for wireless... what makes you think the driver is installed..?
[10:43] <Charlote> yes

[10:43] <sk1t3lles> debugme, is there anything besides firestarter
[10:43] <Charlote> when i run "sudo ndiswprapper -l"
[10:43] <Makky> serenityUK: I used ndiswrapper to install a driver from dell.com for my laptop, ndiswrapper -l produces a result
[10:44] <SeveredCross> Anyone know how I can resize a PDF or make it print smaller? Scaling doesn't help, since evince doesn't scale in the correct way.
[10:44] <debugme> sk1t3lles: shorewall
[10:44] <Makky> serenityUK: I just removed it though, I'm going to try to follow a guide from scratch
[10:44] <Charlote> it sais" device (14E4:4328) present
[10:44] <Charlote> so i made it
[10:44] <debugme> sk1t3lles: ultimately they are all just wrappers around iptables
[10:44] <serenityUK> Makky, this is the tutorial I have used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926
[10:44] <Charlote> now how i have to activate my wirless card
[10:45] <serenityUK> Charlote,    type:     sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[10:45] <webtech_m33> irc server ??? any one ??? something good that ppl can't make crazy bots and hack in to things
[10:45] <sk1t3lles> debugme, with firestarter can i find templates people already made and how do i get iptables to start up automatically when my system starts ?
[10:45] <Makky> serenityUK: Thank you so much!
[10:45] <Gjh> I recently still ubuntu 7.04. I add some gdesklets but I have a problem. When I open anything they appear on top of all. Is there a way that you can set them to display allways on the bottom. That you can only see them on the desktop
[10:45] <Charlote> ok just sec for my system to reboot
[10:46] <serenityUK> lol Charlote

[10:47] <jrib> Yarcanox: yes
[10:47] <sk1t3lles> debugme, firestarter is kind of wierd I can setup rules like say dont accept syn packets and what not
[10:47] <mraustin1337> Hello.  I've had this problem before but it was in 6.10 and now in 7.04 I'm having the same issue.  I installed the nvidia kernel modules from NVIDIA-installer and now I have to run the installer every boot.  I added nv to the restricted-modules but no success, any suggestions?
[10:47] <Yarcanox> jrib you could keep this very easy answer for the next guy asking :)
[10:47] <nickrud> CoasterMaster, aptitude search applet~sgnome will show you most of the ones already available in ubuntu
[10:48] <Charlote> ok
[10:48] <Yarcanox> I just wanted something like that, a kind of switch
[10:48] <Charlote> i did that
[10:48] <jrib> Yarcanox: the man page for update-rc.d explains that
[10:48] <Charlote> and now
[10:48] <Gjh> I recently still ubuntu 7.04. I add some gdesklets but I have a problem. When I open anything they appear on top of all. Is there a way that you can set them to display allways on the bottom. That you can only see them on the desktop
[10:48] <\oxero> my ubuntu is messed, it wont boot from the hdd and only on the live cd, how can i remove unbuntu so i try a diff distro?
[10:48] <Charlote> i have
[10:48] <Charlote> i see it
[10:48] <Dumptruck> envy is great for installing nvidia drivers
[10:48] <Yarcanox> but I am sure it explains a lot of stuff I don't need to know :p
[10:48] <Charlote> ifconfig
[10:48] <Dumptruck> but use with caution
[10:48] <Charlote> and i can see wlan0
[10:48] <Dumptruck> it scares some people
[10:48] <serenityUK> Charlote,    oooo nice

[10:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about enter charlote - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:48] <Pirate_Hunter> is it possible to install Win XP, ubuntu dappper & Feisty on one HD? If so how do I do it or where do I go for instructions??
[10:48] <debugme> sk1t3lles: if you have firestarter installed, it should already run at startup.  check /etc/init.d/firestarter.  the gui already has options for most of what you're looking for.
[10:48] <jrib> Yarcanox: fair enough :)
[10:49] <Charlote> it is traing to connect
[10:49] <paotzu> Pirate_Hunter: split you hard disk into 3
[10:49] <sk1t3lles> debugme, I have firestarter installed I don't see many options at all
[10:49] <Evanlec> !firewall
[10:49] <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).
[10:49] <Charlote> hmmmm

[10:50] <serenityUK> Charlote,    anything?
[10:50] <nickrud> lol, I hate NetworkManager, because it's gonna force me to learn iwconfig & friends yet
[10:50] <mraustin1337> Hello.  I've had this problem before but it was in 6.10 and now in 7.04 I'm having the same issue.  I installed the nvidia kernel modules from NVIDIA-installer and now I have to run the installer every boot.  I added nv to the restricted-modules but no success, any suggestions?
[10:50] <Charlote> no
[10:50] <Charlote> :(
[10:50] <Pirate_Hunter> paotzu: lol I knew I had to partition it but which ubuntu do I install first or it doesnt matter? cause I want Feisty Grub to be in-charge of the partition table
[10:51] <Dumptruck> mraustin you could try envy - worked for me
[10:51] <serenityUK> Charlote,    try:   sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[10:51] <CoasterMaster> !envy | dumptruck: mraustin
[10:51] <ubotu> dumptruck: mraustin: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:52] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, does it say  API mismatch?
[10:52] <Charlote> yes
[10:52] <_tux> Question is there a program that exist where I can possibility find previous programs I've installed that may have not been added to the Applications menu?
[10:52] <Charlote> i can see my network
[10:52] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Let me look.
[10:52] <CoasterMaster> _tux: you can look through the synpatic package manager to see what you have installed
[10:52] <Charlote> interesting
[10:52] <Dumptruck> yesterday I installed cedega - and sound went belly up - removed rebooted nothing - turned off machine and went to bed - powered back on sound worked - today powered off added ram and emerald sound worked - tried to close the terminal with beryl running in it, system froze, hit the power switch now no sound... suggestions?
[10:52] <serenityUK> Charlote,    good!    make a note of the accesspoint id   i think it is called   essid
[10:53] <flowbot> on one of my clients machines, the hard disks keep getting their device node changed from 'sda*' to 'sdb*' when there is any kind of usb device plugged at boot, which destroys the ability to resume correctly ... what's the deal with this? is there any way to get uswsusp to use a drives UUID rather than '/dev/*'?
[10:53] <serenityUK> Charlote,    you may see your neigbours aswell... probably choose strongest
[10:53] <Pirate_Hunter> I want to install Win XP, unbutu dapper and Feisty on one HD. I know I have to partition the disk but when installing ubuntu does it matter which version is installed first?
[10:53] <_tux> heh thanks that works
[10:53] <Charlote> i know how is my network name
[10:53] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, I'm going to give it a reboot to see the exact error.
[10:53] <Charlote> and
[10:53] <Gjh> Someone may tell me why gDesklets always appears on top of everything
[10:54] <Charlote> but i have u know the bars in the rightcorner
[10:54] <Charlote> the wirless indicator
[10:54] <Dumptruck> sudo nano means "I sweat, dwarf" in Italian
[10:54] <Charlote> is half full
[10:54] <Charlote> 45%
[10:54] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, so you tried the ubuntu restricted drivers and the ones from the nvidia website?
[10:54] <Charlote> but when i open firefox and type google nothing is happaning

[10:55] <kazol> Anyone here know how to dual-boot Feisty and m$ on separate HDs?
[10:55] <Charlote> sorry
[10:55] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, you need to remove the ubuntu restricted drivers before installing the ones from nvidia website they conflict
[10:55] <Dumptruck> kazol I have the same question
[10:55] <kazol> I already have Feisty on the master HD, I want to add m$ XP to the slave HD.
[10:55] <Dumptruck> same
[10:55] <Pirate_Hunter> I want to install Win XP, unbutu dapper and Feisty on one HD. I know I have to partition the disk but when installing ubuntu does it matter which version is installed first?
[10:56] <kazol> Dumptruck: I found this article but I'm not sure if I should install m$ with the Ubuntu HD connected: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=360878

[10:56] <buti> folks, how can i help improve (k)ubuntu on mac book pro?
[10:56] <greyfrog> kazol, you tried dual boot msg from ubotu?
[10:56] <Charlote> ok so u know the wirless indicator in the right corner of the csreen(4 bars)
[10:56] <greyfrog> !dualboot | kazol

[10:56] <DaveyJ> is it possible to get a zune wokring on linux/ubuntu, preferably with amarok?
[10:57] <Gjh> [kazol]  Install grub on the hda
[10:57] <MilitantPotato> How do I view what modules are running?
[10:57] <kazol> Dumptruck: Did you try changing the grub config?
[10:57] <FreeLanceTux> nick baderror_linux
[10:57] <jsestri2> If I try to start my laptop it goes into some weird sleep state (capslock light flashes) and the screenturns off about the time X starts, however if I have a 2nd monitor plugged in, it starts fine with cloned displays.
[10:57] <Pirate_Hunter> I want to install Win XP, unbutu dapper and Feisty on one HD. I know I have to partition the disk but when installing ubuntu does it matter which version is installed first?
[10:57] <Dumptruck> still too new
[10:57] <kazol> Gjh: It's already there, I just have to change the Grub config, right?
[10:57] <Dragonborn> modprobe -l
[10:58] <Scunizi> Pirate_Hunter: install windows first
[10:58] <jsestri2> Pirate_Hunter I know you can do Feisty second, there are probably tutorials each way though
[10:58] <Dumptruck> and the command line scares me still - I am used to the fisher price graphical goodness
[10:58] <multiverse> x
[10:58] <MilitantPotato> ty Dragonborn
[10:58] <Charlote> ok i did that
[10:58] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Yes, API Mismatch.
[10:58] <Great_Briton> Pirate_Hunter: yes, windows first.
[10:58] <buti> ubotu: i got most things working nicely here on gutsy, with little patching. i just hate it's getting overwritten by new packages so often ;-)
[10:58] <Charlote> thanx man
[10:58] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, lol i was talking to you... didn't realise you left so soon ....
[10:58] <Charlote> i have internet
[10:58] <Charlote> i run google
[10:58] <t4m1n0> !compiz
[10:58] <buti> damn.

[10:58] <Charlote> i  am connect
[10:58] <corrupt> cool, i'm now connected to the internet on my laptop; however, why isn't my network manager on any of the panels? why doesn't my network manager show any incoming or outgoing traffic?
[10:58] <Gjh> [kazol]  yes, change root to the proper location
[10:58] <kazol> DumpTruck: So you didn't change the grub config?
[10:59] <Charlote> everything is working
[10:59] <Charlote> u are hero
[10:59] <serenityUK> Charlote, wooo hooo!   nice1....  now the test is does it still work after reboot lol
[10:59] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, lol  Sorry.  My /var/log/Xorg.log was screwed so I wanted to get a clean one.
[10:59] <Dumptruck> no
[10:59] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, So what should I do?  Easy fix?  =)
[10:59] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, ok API Mismatch is common it happened to me..
[10:59] <ivan300> whats the compiz section??
[10:59] <Charlote> i dont know
[10:59] <VWJ1bnR1> Why can't I access my desktop?
[10:59] <MilitantPotato> ivan300: the channel?
[10:59] <Pirate_Hunter> Scunizi, jsestri2, Great_Briton: yeha i know M$ XP is 1st but what about the two ubuntu versions? which comes first and second? is there a specific tutorial on this?
[10:59] <Charlote> i read somewhere that i have to make some shanges some where
[11:00] <dre_dog> hi guys,  my computer is having a hard time recognising my sata HDs, are you guys familiar with this?
[11:00] <ivan300> MilitantPotato: yes
[11:00] <Charlote> to make teverything start after reboot
[11:00] <kazol> Gjh: Ok, so I should connect my second HD, change the jumper settings to accomodate 2 HDs (hda=feisty, hdb=m$), then partition/install windows on hdb?
[11:00] <buti> coastermaster: i got most things working nicely here on gutsy, with little patching. i just hate it's getting overwritten by new packages so often ;-)
[11:00] <MilitantPotato> ivan300: #ubuntu-effects #compiz #compiz-fusion
[11:00] <Gjh> yes
[11:00] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, basically the drivers from the nvidia website conflict with the old ubuntu drivers.. they need to be removed first...  type:   sudo apt-get remove nvidia*      then reinstall the website drivers
[11:00] <Great_Briton> Pirate_Hunter: i shouldn't think it would matter, but i'm not 100% sure
[11:00] <jsestri2> pirate_hunter...you should be able to do two installations of ubuntu on separate partitions in either order
[11:00] <kazol> Gjh: The m$ XP installation won't affect hda at all?
[11:01] <Gjh> is you install it on hdb no
[11:01] <jsestri2> pirate_hunter, i think there is a step where it tells you want other bootable os's are available
[11:01] <VWJ1bnR1> I can't right click on my desktop.  Can anyone diagnose the problem, please.
[11:01] <Dumptruck> wait so I need to install windows then reinstall Ubuntu?
[11:01] <kazol> Gjh: I already have feisty on hda, I'm going to install XP onto hdb.
[11:01] <Charlote> im sooo happy
[11:01] <Charlote> i dont know what to say man
[11:01] <Charlote> thnax
[11:01] <Dumptruck> uff - it has taken me weeks to get this far
[11:01] <kazol> Dumptruck: According to him it's not necessary-the m$ installation won't touch hda.
[11:01] <Charlote> im not going to reboot my laptop
[11:02] <serenityUK> Charlote, yay i glad we got there in the end..   i;ve only done it once before
[11:02] <Charlote> until i figer out how to save everthing
[11:02] <Charlote> ur the man
[11:02] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, nvidia-kernel-common is the only one installed, I'm removing it.
[11:02] <mraustin1337> Gotta kill X for the website driver.
[11:02] <Pirate_Hunter> Great_Briton, jsestri2, kk will do so i only want to give 15GB to dapper im just wondering if both can share the same swap memory, is that even possible?
[11:02] <serenityUK> Charlote, ok    so you did the modprobe thing after reboot yes>
[11:02] <MilitantPotato> kazol: you'll choose which OS to load by setting your bios to boot from the XP or Linux drive
[11:03] <serenityUK> ?
[11:03] <rambo3> Pirate_Hunter, yes
[11:03] <jsestri2> pirate_hunter, that should be fine since you arn't running them at the same time.
[11:03] <Great_Briton> Pirate_Hunter: definitely.
[11:03] <Revel> I have 2 IDE HDs installed, and /dev has no hd## items.  I want to mount an ide device.  Am i missing something?
[11:03] <kazol> MilitantPotato: I don't want that, I'll just edit the grub config.
[11:03] <kazol> MilitantPotato: I just want to make sure the m$ installation won't affect hda.
[11:03] <Great_Briton> Pirate_Hunter: i think they could share /home too, if you wanted
[11:03] <serenityUK> Charlote,   i think that was it...    so to  make  it load on startup type:    sudo ndiswrapper -m
[11:03] <MilitantPotato> kazol: if in doubt, yank the Linux drive out during install
[11:04] <arnox__> lerot => c'est bon ?
[11:04] <kazol> MilitantPotato: But the hd will be slave.
[11:04] <rambo3> oui
[11:04] <kazol> MilitantPotato: Won't it mess up the settings?
[11:04] <Ice__> Vorian, are you here?
[11:04] <dre_dog> hello guys
[11:05] <takamarou> hi, I just set up my ubuntu via VirtualBox , and I just restarted after doing my setup stuff on the "CD".  Now it is asking me for a username and password, but I never set one up... what am i doing wrong?
[11:05] <serenityUK> welcome dre_dog
[11:05] <Pirate_Hunter> rambo3, jsestri2, Great_Briton: thanx will try... sharing home? sorry but I think im too noob to even pull that off but it would save more space. Im just wondering how thats even possible when they will be using different formats
[11:05] <Dumptruck> sometimes I think I should take a bucket of water to it... let it know what the real boot priority is
[11:05] <MilitantPotato> kazol: depends on how HDA is partitioned I'd think, if there's no file systems visable to windows on HDA, then windows will still be C: when it's on slave.  I am just guessing here though.
[11:05] <Great_Briton> Pirate_Hunter: different formats?
[11:05] <photovoric> haha Dumptruck
[11:05] <Ice__> Hi, I need to know how to get my wireless adapter to automatically connect to my preferred network on startup.
[11:05] <dre_dog> I'm having a problem with my nvidia drivers
[11:05] <Ice__> did not
[11:05] <jsestri2> rambo3, great_briton, pirate_hunter: sharing home may not be a good idea if you install different versions of programs...
[11:06] <dre_dog> Every time I reboot I have to reinstall my nvidia drivers...  anyone know how to fix this?
[11:06] <MilitantPotato> kazol: at most it will break GRUB, that's easy enough to repair
[11:06] <serenityUK> Charlote,   did you catch that?  to make  it load on startup type:    sudo ndiswrapper -m
[11:06] <Great_Briton> jsestri2, Pirate_Hunter: that's true, good call
[11:06] <rambo3> jsestri2, i just answerd for swap
[11:06] <serenityUK> dre_dog did you install from the nvidia website?
[11:06] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup?
[11:06] <Dumptruck> what is the ubuntu website that troubleshoots sound issues?
[11:06] <photovoric> meh.. ive got apache2 and  vsftpd running but when i upload files to the www directory apache cant access them without chmod.. would adding the local user to teh www group fix that?
[11:06] <takamarou> Hi, i just finished setting up my ubuntu on a VM, so I restarted like it told me to.. Now that it booted up its asking me for a username and password, but I never made one.. what do i do?
[11:06] <kazol> MilitantPotato: So I should remove the master HD (with Feisty) and connect a blank HD marked as slave and install?
[11:06] <dre_dog> serenityUK:  yep
[11:07] <nickrud> !sound | Dumptruck
[11:07] <ubotu> Dumptruck: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[11:07] <MilitantPotato> kazol: without a master drive that wouldn't be wise
[11:07] <Pirate_Hunter> jsestri2: u beat me in typing thats upseting im noob at typing as well
[11:07] <serenityUK> dre_dog and when you reboot it says faild x server  .... API mismatch?
[11:07] <kazol> Dumptruck: Google Ubuntu Forums.
[11:07] <MilitantPotato> kazol: Someone said it won't hurt Ubuntu if it's on a seperate drive, I'd take his word over mine :)
[11:07] <kazol> Dumptruck: It's a large forum for Ubuntu issues.
[11:07] <MilitantPotato> kazol: my experiance with installing windows after ubuntu was it broke GRUB, it took 10 mins to fix though
[11:08] <dre_dog> serenityUK: I'm not sure about API mismatch, but failed x server yes
[11:08] <kazol> MilitantPotato: Ok, I'll just add the second HD and install m$ to it, then change the grub options in feisty.
[11:08] <MilitantPotato> kazol: but that was when installing both on HDA
[11:08] <photovoric> ive got apache2 and  vsftpd running but when i upload files to the www directory apache cant access them without chmod.. would adding the local user to teh www group fix that?
[11:08] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Perfection.  Thanks man.
[11:08] <MilitantPotato> kazol: have an alternate install CD incase it does break GRUB?
[11:08] <takamarou> hi, i just finished setting up my ubuntu, and when ir estarted without the disk, it asked me for a username and password, but i never set one up.. what do i do?
[11:08] <jonathan__> hello all, I'm installing Dapper Server and the installation hangs on "Installing GRUB boot loader"
[11:08] <serenityUK> dre_dog it sound like it if you fix it by reinstalling every boot...   the thing is you need to remove the ubuntu driver before installing from the website...
[11:09] <kazol> MilitantPotato: Thanks for the help. Yes, I have multiple live-CD distros and have edited the grub file before.
[11:09] <dre_dog> hmmm very good,  I'll try that :)
[11:09] <dre_dog> tx
[11:09] <dre_dog> serenity: tx :)
[11:09] <MilitantPotato> Good luck :)
[11:09] <serenityUK> dre_dog type:   sudo apt-get remove nvidia*           then  reinstall
[11:09] <_tux> takamarou: when you installed Ubuntu it didn't ask for you to enter a username and password?
[11:09] <photovoric> is there a room specificaly for LAMP setups?
[11:10] <Revel> Im running on an IDE device, and I have no /dev/hda(b)(c) listed.  is this expected?  I need to mount an ide device ; ;
[11:10] <takamarou> _tux : not that i remember.. i did it this morning, and let it install while i was at school
[11:10] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, great mate... compiz fusion and all the bling should work now..  remember if you upgrade the kernel or x server you will need to reinstall the driver.. so keep a copy
[11:10] <_tux> takamarou: that's weird someone may entered the username and password while you were at school maybe
[11:10] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup?
[11:11] <takamarou> _tux: so to fix that, i launch from the CD?  Do i have to do a complete reinstall?
[11:11] <joseph1110216> how do i get rid of my network in windows
[11:11] <eamonn> hi, can somebody help me with my sound? it works, but my laptop has been crashing a lot more often since I got my sound working
[11:11] <_tux> takamarou: you can probably login to the root account through a failsafe terminal but a password might be needed in order to login as root
[11:11] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup? :S
[11:11] <eamonn> I think it might be because two things are trying to use the sound card at the same time
[11:11] <_tux> then from there you can add a new username and password to the account
[11:12] <Ice__> #bash
[11:12] <takamarou> _tux: ok.. but i dont have ANY passwords.. is there any other way around that?  using boot CD? anything?
[11:12] <neverblue> hey guys, I am trying to get .wav (MS GSM audio codec @ 8000 Hz) files to play in FF, can someone troubleshoot with me ?
[11:13] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Yeah.  I always do.  Note on compiz fusion, is there a way to not have to do a hard power off every shutdown?
[11:13] <_tux> takamarou: not that I know of but you may be able to boot in to recovery mode through the kernel it may or may not require a password for login
[11:13] <takamarou> _tux: im a bit of a noob when it comes to linux.. how do i boot in recovery mode.. and how do i access kernel? :/
[11:14] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup?
[11:14] <steven43126> takamarou, reboot and you use a recovery kernel or add single as a kernel option
[11:14] <_tux> cause usually when installing Ubuntu it always ask for a username and password before it finishes the rest of the installation
[11:14] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, are you sure it's compiz's fault lol?    is it a laptop?  i never got hibernate to work properly
[11:14] <takamarou> steven43126: im very new to linux, so I have no idea what any of that means..
[11:14] <_tux> steven43126: when booting in to the Kernel recovery mode does he need a password to gain access through the root account or it automatically logs you in
[11:15] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup?
[11:15] <steven43126> takamarou, when you see the grub prompt when booting press ESC to get to the menu you'll see a list of kernels to boot from select one that contains the word recovery
[11:15] <photo> ive got apache2 and  vsftpd running but when i upload files to the www directory apache cant access them without chmod.. would adding the local user to teh www group fix that?
[11:15] <frindou> hello room
[11:15] <steven43126> _tux, no it should log in as root automatically
[11:15] <serenityUK> welcome frindou
[11:15] <Ice__> Could someone please help me get my USB dongle to connect to my preferred network with settings at startup?
[11:15] <takamarou> _tux:  I just booted from the CD, and im in the login window preferences.. ur sure that i cant just add a user and password right here?
[11:15] <_tux> takamarou: by the way GRUB is a boot loader that you should see at startup
[11:16] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: hi again
[11:16] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Well my computer shuts down alright normally but if I have compiz running it locks up completely on a shutdown.
[11:16] <_tux> takamarou: Ubuntu is a Live CD but can be installed from the hdd doubt it'll fix it
[11:16] <_tux> but you can try
[11:16] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : hi coaster
[11:16] <neverblue> hey guys, I am trying to get .wav (MS GSM audio codec @ 8000 Hz) files to play in FF, can someone troubleshoot with me ?
[11:16] <rockets> Do you guys think using compiz/beryl/etc. will cut down my laptop
[11:16] <Pirate_Hunter> if i am to install ubuntu feisty which version should i get? Standard personal computer (x86 architecture, PentiumTM, CeleronTM, AthlonTM, SempronTM) or 64bit AMD and Intel computers? The processor is Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4.
[11:16] <mraustin1337> pressed alt + f4 on the wrong screen
[11:16] <rockets> laptop's battery life*
[11:16] <steven43126> takamarou, give it ago if not all is not lost there is still a way you can do it? if you do get access do you know how to add a new user account? might want to check that first
[11:17] <pike_> rockets: yeah a bit
[11:17] <takamarou> steven43126: ok, doin that right now
[11:17] <rockets> pike_, ok but how much is a bit?
[11:17] <Ice__>  Could someone explain to me how this script works?  http://pastebin.com/mfdaf0bf
[11:17] <eamonn> hello, can someone help me troubleshoot with my sound
[11:17] <eamonn>  I have it working
[11:17] <eamonn>  but now it crashes all the time
[11:17] <eamonn>  which is weird because it never crashed when the sound wasn't working
[11:17] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, standard
[11:17] <steven43126> rockets, unfortunatley but i can't bring myself to turn it off ;)
[11:17] <Joeb454> !enter | eamonn
[11:17] <ubotu> eamonn: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:17] <frindou> thanks
[11:17] <rockets> steven43126, hehe.
[11:18] <rockets> its so damn pretty
[11:18] <furrywolf> Two quick questions...  will a ubuntu livecd have drivers for an orinoco wireless card, and will it complain at all on a computer that does not have a hard drive at all?
[11:18] <_tux> takamarou: On startup with the CD inside the drive you should see two options the original Kernel and the Kernel recovery mode try booting in to the recovery mode and see if it logs you in to the root account automatically it'll be a terminal with no GUI
[11:18] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, i had that but it fixed itself with the latest version.  i am using the gutsy gibbon alpha and i didn't know if it was compiz or gnome..  are you using the latest compiz?
[11:18] <pike_> rockets: here's what you do. you run beryl manager when there are prople around to impress. when youre alone you switch back to your trusty 2d fluxbox desktop
[11:18] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: why would you advice that, the components are based on 64x module but ive heard that gives a lot of problems, is thta true
[11:18] <_tux> without the cd inside the drive**
[11:18] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, you say you have a pentium 4, right?
[11:18] <Charlote> lol
[11:18] <eamonn> okay, could somebody help me troubleshoot? I just got sound working on mylaptop and now it crashes all the time
[11:18] <eamonn> it never crashed when the sound wasn
[11:18] <eamonn> 't working
[11:18] <serenityUK> Charlote,   did you catch that?  to make  it load on startup type:    sudo ndiswrapper -m
[11:19] <Charlote> hey guz how was the command for scanini wirless netowork
[11:19] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: yup thats correct
[11:19] <furrywolf> (have an old laptop with bad hard drive, want to use it as a terminal)
[11:19] <takamarou> _tux: ok, ill try that after this.. i just added a new username to Users settings after booting from the disk
[11:19] <Charlote> noo
[11:19] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, then 64bit won't run :)
[11:19] <Charlote> i just reboot
[11:19] <_tux> I gotcha
[11:19] <Charlote> and i cant connect
[11:19] <chalcedny> my husband was browsing to look at some document in a website, it says :Press Escape to Quit .. but nothing happens and is filling his whole screen. How can i change screens or whatever to get out of it?
[11:19] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: are you running from the LiveCD?
[11:19] <serenityUK> Charlote, try:     sudo  dhclient wlan0
[11:19] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: I understand no prblem will follow your advice
[11:19] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, I think it is the latest, let me check.
[11:19] <timposey> does anyone have any idea why every document that I try to print from a certain website which uses Java and Viewone shows up as stopped in the printer window status section and I cannot get it to print no matter what...
[11:20] <serenityUK> Charlote, oh wait you might need to modeprobe again first..
[11:20] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : i just finished installing, and it asked me for a username and password, but i never put one in.. so i just tried booting from disk to fix it that way
[11:20] <rockets> I can't get the thing where I click in the upper right corner and it shows all my windows working
[11:20] <rockets> the expose clone
[11:20] <Dumptruck> sweet mother of perl... the sound guide worked thanks so much
[11:20] <furrywolf> and...  "You will need at least 256MB of RAM to install from this CD"?  bloody hell?  256mb of ram just to install it?
[11:20] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, 0.5.2
[11:20] <eamonn> could someone help me troubleshot my sound? please?
[11:20] <Charlote> i did thant
[11:20] <serenityUK> Charlote,    type:     sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[11:20] <Charlote> how was the command fopr scanning
[11:20] <_tux> heh earmonn sounds like I can may be fix that issue
[11:20] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: I don't think you'll be able to affect the install on your hard drive in the LiveCD
[11:20] <erUSUL> !sound | eamonn
[11:20] <ubotu> eamonn: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[11:21] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: how did you install?
[11:21] <nickrud> furrywolf, that's the live cd, right? there are other ways that use a lot less ram
[11:21] <serenityUK> Charlote,    try:   sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[11:21] <takamarou> CoasterMaster: i pressed the "install" icon.. and filled out all the info.. and then went to school while it was installing
[11:21] <_tux> !sound
[11:21] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[11:21] <steven43126> takamarou, you need to add the new user while booting from your installed environment not the cd
[11:21] <takamarou> CoasterMaster : i got back and found it like this
[11:21] <nickrud> !install | furrywolf
[11:21] <ubotu> furrywolf: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[11:21] <_tux> awesome never knew you could do that
[11:21] <rockets> Wow, compiz cuts my battery life from 3 hours at a full charge to 14 minutes at a full charge.
[11:21] <soccermike1337> !ifuckingsuckcauseiscrewedupwindowswhenflashingmybios | SoccerMike1337
[11:21] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: in the installer, it asks for a username, which defaults to your first name lowercase
[11:21] <rockets> thats bad.
[11:22] <takamarou> CoasterMaster: and then my password is...?
[11:22] <nickrud> ouch
[11:22] <furrywolf> nickrud:  somehow, that's completely useless for what I just asked.  :)
[11:22] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: it should have asked you for it....that's very strange
[11:22] <soccermike1337> !yeahiknow | SoccerMike1337
[11:22] <nickrud> furrywolf, eh, well you commented, not asked really :)
[11:22] <rockets> how can it really be 15 mins
[11:22] <Charlote> still no go
[11:22] <takamarou> CoasterMaster: maybe my memory is hazy, it was like 6:00 in the morning.. but I dont remember putting in a username or password.... and i tried my usual login info
[11:23] <CoasterMaster> hmmmm
[11:23] <chalcedny> if your monitor is filled with a page, how can you get out of it to a terminal or close it?
[11:23] <takamarou> CoasterMaster: but u said that it might default to my first name in lowercase.. but then whats my password?
[11:23] <furrywolf> nickrud:  heh, before that, I asked about whether the livecd will talk to an orinoco card, preferably by default, as the computer it'd be in doesn't have a hard drive...
[11:23] <tatters> Upgraded to feisty my wirelss card wont work centrino b/g (ipw2200)
[11:23] <serenityUK> Charlote, did you modprobe.. that was the first thing after reboot...   sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[11:23] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: the password defaults as blank, but I doubt the installer will let you get away with a blank one, but you could try
[11:23] <steven43126> takamarou, you will find it easier to reboot and use the recovery console from there you just need to use the commands useradd and passwd reboot and your new user will be created
[11:23] <Scunizi> takamarou: not sure if it will work but try enter
[11:23] <eamonn> I've already visited those websites  tux
[11:23] <soccermike1337> ugh
[11:23] <Charlote> yes
[11:23] <mushroomjay> What is a program that works with the .rar file extension?
[11:23] <soccermike1337> so what should i do?
[11:24] <Charlote> i will reboot and do everhing again
[11:24] <rockets> mushroomjay, unrar, but NOT unrar-free
[11:24] <eamonn> I wasn't sure if I needed to reinstall my kernal or something
[11:24] <Xavier_> d.com.ar
[11:24] <takamarou> steven43126: ok.. ima do that then.. can u instruct me again on how to get to this recovery mode thang?
[11:24] <nickrud> furrywolf, ah, no I didn't see that one. And  I don't know the answer to it. Sorry
[11:24] <mushroomjay> All right. Thanks rockets.
[11:24] <furrywolf> I was commenting on the memory, as that number is a bit scary, given the box only has 64mb of ram.  :)
[11:24] <serenityUK> Charlote, and is there a wlan when you ifconfig?
[11:24] <mraustin1337> serenityUK, Maybe I'll talk to the compiz-fusion guys.
[11:24] <Charlote> yes it was
[11:24] <furrywolf> (want to use an old laptop, with no hard drive, as a wireless terminal...)
[11:24] <Charlote> let me rebot
[11:24] <chalcedny> furrywolf: lol i know the feeling.. you might try a custom debian install?
[11:25] <Dumptruck> ok so the first thing I opened was a rm file with Realplayer - sound worked - then I started virtualbox - sound stopped - video works fine just no sound with Realplayer
[11:25] <steven43126> takamarou, sure, when booting look for the Grub boot loader it will say something like press ESC for menu get to the menu then select a kernel that has recovery in the title
[11:25] <furrywolf> chalcedny:  no hard drive, and building my own livecd is WAY too much work for this project.
[11:25] <ironmatar> serenityUK:   whats corretc syntax for apt-get build essiental
[11:25] <Grungebunny> Hello ive encountered a funny bug, ive got ubuntu on dual boot with xp.. now if ive loaded windows.. then restart back into ubuntu the wireless doesn't pick up.. I have to reboot ubuntu a 2nd time to get the wireless working.. anyone know how to fix this?
[11:25] <serenityUK> mraustin1337, yes there is a #compis-fusion channel
[11:25] <Grungebunny> it only happens if ive just come from xp
[11:25] <steven43126> the system should boot and drop you into text mode
[11:25] <serenityUK> ironmatar, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:25] <chalcedny> furrywolf: umm damnsmalllinux ?
[11:25] <takamarou> kk, thx
[11:25] <bruenig> Grungebunny, do you know how to manually configure wireless via command line?
[11:25] <Grungebunny> bruenig nope not done it
[11:25] <furrywolf> chalcedny:  needs X and wireless, and not requiring me to spend too much time on it.  heh.
[11:26] <ironmatar> thanks
[11:26] <serenityUK> np
[11:26] <eamonn> those links with help for sound don't seem to address my problem
[11:26] <Grungebunny> bruenig its already configured just doesn't seem to pickup if ive come from xp.
[11:26] <bruenig> Grungebunny, well I am about to leave so I can't go into that, but if you learn that, and then read the networking init scripts and play around with it, you will probably figure it out
[11:26] <chalcedny> furrywolf: good luck
[11:26] <steven43126> takamarou, pm me if you want and ill guide you through adding the newuser it's easy
[11:26] <bruenig> Grungebunny, I mean linux is very transparent like that, if you know how stuff works on the command line, you can pretty much isolate and figure out any problem
[11:26] <Grungebunny> bruenig got a url I can brose?
[11:27] <Charlote> and i will try everything again
[11:27] <Charlote> but this time modprobe ndiswrapper is going t o be firs
[11:27] <Charlote> becouse after reboot i diid everything on memory
[11:27] <Charlote> ok
[11:27] <Charlote> no go again
[11:27] <bruenig> Grungebunny, just look at ifconfig iwconfig dhclient, and know which module you are supposed to be loading for your wireless card
[11:27] <Revel> hmmm k so i found my devices (sda#)
[11:27] <chalcedny> there must be a reason nobody is answering me about my problem. i can't remember commands, due to learning disabiity. how do i get OUT of whatever my husband is in and back to a propmt? (without rebooting) ?
[11:27] <Pirate_Hunter> is kubuntu better than ubuntu? or it is based on the user's choice, I wnat to know if kde is more efficient than gnome also if an example could be given
[11:27] <Revel> but this ide flash module i had ubuntu doesnt seem to know the file system type
[11:27] <Charlote> i reboot
[11:27] <Charlote> modeprobe nd....
[11:27] <Charlote> wlan   scan
[11:27] <Charlote> dhcilent
[11:27] <Charlote>  i run all this and no go
[11:28] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: it's really a matter of personal choice
[11:28] <astro76> Grungebunny, Windows does a warm restart (you might notice no bios memory check) whereas linux does a cold restart (equivalent to a shutdown)
[11:28] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: you can have both installed and just see which you like more
[11:28] <serenityUK> Charlote, try    sudo dmesg      after modprobe  should tell you if it loaded ok
[11:28] <chalcedny> Pirate_Hunter: Kubuntu is a larger package than gnome and has some more neat stuff. depends on what you want though i LOVE the gnome desktop
[11:28] <erUSUL> chalcedny: in command line? or GUI (graphics mode)
[11:28] <kazol> What are some good cd burning apps (other than k3b)?
[11:28] <johnon> hi. can i display the day of month using a command?
[11:28] <bruenig> kazol, cdrecord
[11:28] <CoasterMaster> !burning | kazor
[11:28] <ubotu> kazor: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[11:28] <johnon> i  mean only a day
[11:28] <chalcedny> erUSUL: he's in firefox gui .. i can use either on his box
[11:28] <astro76> Grungebunny, so maybe the card isn't getting reset properly, solution might be to shutdown from Windows instead of restarting
[11:28] <takamarou> steven43126: ok... i sent u a message
[11:28] <erUSUL> johnon: date
[11:29] <Charlote> syes
[11:29] <Grungebunny> astro ahh that could be it.. cause thats what im doing.. restarting
[11:29] <johnon> erUSUL:yes but i would like only a day
[11:29] <Pirate_Hunter> chalcedny, CoasterMaster: see i understand but how can i install both and still not cause any conflict?
[11:29] <Charlote> h vae bdiswapper
[11:29] <kazol> bruenig: Is it cmd line?
[11:29] <Dumptruck> As for Vista vs. XP my second boot I would like to be solely for gaming - which is better?
[11:29] <johnon> not what time is it
[11:29] <Revel> I'm guessing NTFS-fs error (device sda2): read_ntfs_boot_sector(): Primary boot sector is invalid. is the device I want to mount.  Any suggestions? (it wont mount file system type unknown)
[11:29] <chalcedny> Pirate_Hunter: kde and gnome share a lot of the same files/ubuntu/kubuntu
[11:29] <Evanlec> Dumptruck: XP still has better driver support
[11:29] <erUSUL> johnon: date | cut -f3 -d' '
[11:29] <spinzwright> Help! My cpu runs at 100% once Ubuntu is started, and I can't figure out why
[11:29] <Dumptruck> ah
[11:29] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: you can install the package kubuntu-desktop and then when you login, you can choose which you'd like by going to Options -> Session
[11:30] <eddys> Carroarmato0
[11:30] <serenityUK> Charlote, so what happens  when you   tpye:   sudo iwlist wlan0 scan?
[11:30] <kazol> Is "cdrecord" command-line not gui?
[11:30] <CoasterMaster> !KDE | Pirate_Hunter
[11:30] <Ice_> how do I add an executable file to /usr/local/bin and put my code in it using terminal?
[11:30] <takamarou> OK, so im booted in recovery mode,  what commands do i use to add a username and password?
[11:30] <erUSUL> chalcedny: Crtl + Alt + <Backspace> will restart X an lando you in the login screen

[11:31] <kazol> Dumptruck: There is a #windows channel
[11:31] <furrywolf> Ice_:  first step is to fix your sticking @ key.
[11:31] <KiPSeRoN> somone can help me restore my grub i try make it from grub command line from grub menu from the system by self with grub-install but nothing work i can boot the system from grub super disk by click at boot from gnu/linux but after make restart and eject the cd the grub dont show up just a windows menu that said safe mode safe mode with networking and other options?
[11:31] <serenityUK> Charlote, so you can see the name of your accesspoint?
[11:31] <KiPSeRoN> ?
[11:31] <Pirate_Hunter> chalcedny, CoasterMaster: see i never knew that, have never messed with the session option on the login screen
[11:31] <CaptainFrisbee> spinzwright, open system monitor System->Administration->System Monitor, and look at which process takes the most CPU time
[11:31] <Ice_> furrywolf, I found the problem, its gone
[11:31] <erUSUL> kazol: brasero, gnomebaker, k3b
[11:31] <chalcedny> erUSUL: maybe. i wish there was something to type to just kill firefox and leave the rest of his stuff open, but i culd only do that from command line or firefox
[11:31] <Charlote> ues
[11:31] <Ice_> furrywolf, could you locate step two also? :)
[11:31] <Charlote> i see network
[11:32] <chalcedny> Pirate_Hunter: youll get there :))
[11:32] <Charlote> but it does not connect
[11:32] <erUSUL> chalcedny: if you want to kill firefox just do 'killall -9 firefox-bin'
[11:32] <kazol> erUSUL: k3b does not work for me, how does brasero compare to gnomebaker?
[11:32] <bruenig> johnon, a better way is date +%d
[11:32] <serenityUK> Charlote, try:    sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid  putnameofthenetworkhere
[11:32] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: yeah, the session menu will let you chose what kind of window manager you would like, also note that the kubuntu-desktop package will change your boot screen to read kubuntu and be blue (instead of the orange ubuntu one).  This can be chanegd
[11:32] <erUSUL> kazol: simpler gui
[11:32] <chalcedny> erUSUL: the screen he's in won't let me type anything or navigate.. guess i'm back to control- alt -backspace
[11:32] <chalcedny> brb .. going to do that
[11:32] <kazol> erUSUL: How about in terms of stability/advanced features?
[11:33] <Evanlec> chalcedny: try alt+f2 + xkill ;p
[11:33] <Charlote> nothing happand
[11:33] <Ice_> err, how do I add an executable file to /usr/local/bin and put my code in it using terminal?
[11:33] <Pirate_Hunter> chalcedny, CoasterMaster: through IRC i will get to know linux and yeha really didnt know that. that option is very useful
[11:33] <johnon> erUSUL and bruenig: thank you for helping me.i respect your skills.you could teach.it would be a pleasure.:)
[11:33] <serenityUK> Charlote, now try:     sudo dhclient wlan0
[11:33] <spinzwright> Right, I do that but it shows GNOME System monitor is the one, but only 23%, but on resources tab cpu is stuck at 100%
[11:33] <johnon> for me of course
[11:34] <Enul> Can someone please tell me how to install flash?
[11:34] <Ice_> www.adobe.com ?

[11:34] <Ice_> oh that works
[11:35] <CoasterMaster> Enul: the best way I found is just to go to youtube and try and view a movie and the follow the built in directions
[11:35] <Ice_> how do I add an executable file to /usr/local/bin and put my code in it using terminal?
[11:35] <CaptainFrisbee> spinzwright, do you use an indexer such as Beagle?
[11:35] <Enul> i see.. thanks
[11:35] <eamonn> can someone help my troubleshoot my sound problem? I haven't found any helpfull websites
[11:35] <CoasterMaster> Ice_: are you trying to write a program?
[11:35] <erUSUL> kazol: i must admit that for my needs Places>CD/DVD creator is enough so... brasero is very nice. But you do not have to take my word just install both and try out
[11:35] <bruenig> Ice_, I assume you mean a terminal text editor, vim or nano
[11:35] <JosefK> other than just disabling APIC, does anyone know a fix for "APIC error on CPUx: 40(40)"?
[11:35] <Ice_> terminal command prompt type thing
[11:35] <spinzwright> No, just installed ubuntu
[11:35] <Ice_> it won't let me create a file in there, so I have to sudo it

[11:36] <Pirate_Hunter> CoasterMaster, chalcedny: kubuntu is basically ubuntu with a different file manager? am i right? it is still ubuntu cause originally i wanted to install Feisty and dapper
[11:36] <SidneySM> Erm, I know this isn't Ubuntu perse, but I'm having difficulty shrinking a Vista partition to accommodate Ubuntu. Could anyone help? I resized it, but it still shows as full size in the installer.
[11:36] <bruenig> Pirate_Hunter, ubuntu with a different desktop environment and different default applications
[11:36] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: kubuntu is basically ubuntu with the KDE window manager instead of the Ubuntu default GNOME
[11:36] <bruenig> kde is more than a window manager
[11:36] <Ice_> someone else wrote the code. It's for my wireless adapter.  And it apparently works if I could just make an executable file in /usr/local/bin with the script.
[11:36] <SidneySM> In another partition manager, 1-3 are marked as regular, 4 is marked extended. That manager refuses to touch it.
[11:37] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: Information on KDE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDE  Information on GNOME: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME
[11:37] <bruenig> Ice_, sudo nano /usr/local/bin/nameofscript, and copy and paste it
[11:37] <Ice_> thanks
[11:37] <takamarou> hey, im in recovery mode right now.. what is the restart command? anyone know?
[11:38] <serenityUK> Ice_, put the script in a text file then make it executable  by    sudo  chmod u+x  /name/of/file
[11:38] <bruenig> takamarou, shutdown -r now
[11:38] <ironmatar> somone got time to take a look at this and tell me whats wrong http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35716/
[11:38] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig, CoasterMaster: ok ive got that now im stuck which version of ubuntu i throw away so i cna keep kubuntu? hmmm between dapper and feisty which should i replace with kubuntu?
[11:38] <UncleD> I'm almost done with upgrading from breezy->fiesty!
[11:38] <UncleD> of course i went through the steps :)
[11:38] <Ice_> serenityUK, how do I put the text file in usr/local/bin
[11:38] <takamarou> bruenig, thanks very much
[11:38] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: you can have both kubuntu and ubuntu installed on the same partition
[11:38] <bruenig> Pirate_Hunter, that sentence is incoherent
[11:38] <CaptainFrisbee> spinzwright, could you pastebin the output of the "top" command?
[11:38] <Ice_> bruenig, nano seems to confuse me, a text file would work easier
[11:38] <serenityUK> Ice_, use sudo
[11:38] <bruenig> Ice_, that is a text file
[11:39] <Ice_> oh
[11:39] <Pirate_Hunter> bruenig: i know trying to type fast
[11:39] <Ice_> bruenig, it calls it a .save file?
[11:39] <Pirate_Hunter> CoasterMaster: yeha buth there is no point keeping kubuntu, dapper, and feisty on the same HD
[11:39] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: So, in your fiesty installation, you can run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and it will install kubuntu fiesty to live peacefully with ubuntu fiesty
[11:39] <bruenig> Ice_, no, just do what I said, copy and paste it, and then exit
[11:40] <Ice_> bruenig, I did, now there is a .save file in my usr/local/bin
[11:40] <Pirate_Hunter> CoasterMaster: thanx very nice thats what i wanted and i cna still keep dapper
[11:40] <bruenig> Ice_, how did you exit nano?
[11:40] <Ice_> bruenig, do  I have to include the extention in nameofscript?  and the x
[11:40] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: yeah youll just select kde or gnome at login screen by clicking 'sessions' button
[11:40] <CoasterMaster> Pirate_Hunter: yup you can do that...you can even install kubuntu-desktop in dapper if you'd like the dapper version of kubuntu
[11:41] <NMajik> What would be a recommended way to move a very large file between two ubuntu machines on the same network without an external HDD?
[11:41] <gnuskool> :D
[11:41] <Woosta> Anyone have any debs lying around that will rollback mysql 5 to 4.1?
[11:41] <serenityUK> Ice_, you can rename the file:    sudo mv /usr/local/bin/myfile.save  /usr/local/bin/myfile
[11:41] <bruenig> NMajik, scp or maybe nfs
[11:41] <CoasterMaster> NMakik: how large are we talking about?
[11:41] <takamarou> ok, im logging in for the first time, and im getting this error: Your home directory is listed as: '\home\takamarou' but it does not appear to exist.  Do you want to log in with the \(root) directory as your home directory?       should i press yes?
[11:41] <Pirate_Hunter> CoasterMaster: dapper will be for other work I like the simplistic of it

[11:41] <NMajik> ~5.7gb
[11:42] <ironmatar> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35716/ ?
[11:42] <Ice_> bruenig, that worked
[11:42] <CoasterMaster> NMajik: scp or sftp (like others have said) would be a good idea
[11:42] <pike_> NMajik: use split to make 1.4mb slices and transfer by floppy
[11:42] <CoasterMaster> !scp | NMajik
[11:42] <ubotu> NMajik: 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/
[11:42] <NMajik> pike_:Sounds great
[11:42] <bruenig> NMajik, you can mount network drives as if they were physical drives and just copy it over
[11:42] <eamonnd> could somebody help me trouble shoot? none of the "!sound" links seem to address my problem
[11:43] <bruenig> scp is designed more for non local drives it seems but both will work and probably with equal speed
[11:43] <NMajik> bruenig: On the target machine?
[11:43] <bruenig> !nfs
[11:43] <Enul> can someone please tell me why i cant mount my dvd burner without having to reinsert the disc?
[11:43] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:43] <NMajik> Outstanding, thank you all
[11:44] <pike_> NMajik: what bruenig said also.  but i usually use sshfs to mount and do a 'sudo modprobe fuse; sudo mount username@192.168.1.2:/remotedirectory /mnt/mountpoint'
[11:44] <Pirate_Hunter> bye ppl changin to xp quickly to get some files
[11:44] <eamonnd> why can't I get any help?
[11:44] <bruenig> sshfs for local drives?
[11:44] <takamarou> hi, im loggin in for the first time right now, but im getting this error:  Your home directory is listed as: '/home/takamarou' but it does not appear to exist.  Do you want to log in with the /(root) directory as your home directory?  It is unlikely anything will work unless you use a failsafe session         do i want to press yes or no?
[11:44] <pike_> wifi
[11:45] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: press no
[11:45] <_tux> eamonnd: what's the problem you're experiencing?
[11:45] <Enul> i'd help you eamonnd but i'm probably newer to linux then you are
[11:45] <takamarou> CoasterMaster, ok.. so after i do that, what do i do?
[11:45] <CaptainFrisbee> eamonnd, could you describe your problem in a bit more detail?
[11:45] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: you can reboot into the rescue thing and run 'sudo mkdir /home/takamarou' (without quotes)
[11:45] <takamarou> CoasterMaster, ok.. will do, thanks
[11:45] <eamonnd> tux or captainfrisbee: could we do a private chat? this is a little overwhelming
[11:46] <fassbinder> hey there! Is there a program where i can check my file systems for errors?
[11:46] <CoasterMaster> !fsck | fassbinder
[11:46] <ubotu> fassbinder: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot

[11:48] <kbrooks_> CoasterMaster, well, i don't own the laptop in question.
[11:49] <_tux> eamonnd: it isn't working anymore?
[11:49] <cerneula> I have two hard discs. I have ubuntu installed in the first one and data on the second one
[11:49] <CoasterMaster> kbrooks_: then you'd probably want to check with the school on that one
[11:49] <Revel> When I try to mount this transcend ide flash device I am finding this in dmesg after fail.  Hoping it means something to someone.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35717/
[11:49] <eamonnd>  the problem now is that, since I followed that advice, my computer crashes all the time. I've picked up on a few patterns, like it'll will crash under specific events, but other times it seems totally random
[11:49] <eamonnd> Sorry
[11:50] <eamonnd> Tux:  the problem now is that, since I followed that advice, my computer crashes all the time. I've picked up on a few patterns, like it'll will crash under specific events, but other times it seems totally random
[11:50] <milan_> cerneula: so, whats your problem then?
[11:50] <gnuskool> kbrooks, if the hard drive is big, and youre the asventurous sort, then try dual-booting linux ans windows, you can remove the linux if you have to later
[11:50] <_tux> going to check out the link
[11:50] <takamarou> CoasterMaster, ok, i just did the recovery thing, now im getting this error:     User's $HOME/,dmrc file is being ignored.  This prevents the default session and language from being saved.  File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions.  User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users               lemme guess, recovery mode again?
[11:50] <Enul> when i try to install flash i get the following error
[11:51] <cerneula> the problem I cannot add, delete, etc directories, files in the second hard disc, because the system says I havent got enough privileges as it is owned by root. What can I do?
[11:51] <Enul> Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the
[11:51] <Enul>        Adobe Flash Player installer.
[11:51] <gnuskool> kbrooks, do backups
[11:51] <milan_> cerneula: you can open it as root, or change the privileges
[11:51] <serenityUK> cerneula, is the second hard drive a windows  fat32 or NTFS partition?
[11:51] <cerneula> yes it is ntfs
[11:52] <jrib> !flash > Enul (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:52] <cerneula> I can open it as root, it asks for the password, I can read the files, but that is all
[11:52] <mojo> Help?!?  +something+ is causing my Load Average to top out, and my system becomes painfully slow, even the mouse freezes for long periods.  How do I figure out the culprit?  Where does "Load Average" in the Gnome System monitor come from?  ATM it is at 6.5.  I have had this problem for a couple weeks and recently upgraded edgy to fiesty w/o any improvement.  Ideas?
[11:52] <serenityUK> cerneula, you need to install a driver to wrtie to ntfs drives...  called  ntfs-3g
[11:52] <milan_> cerneula: you need write access for ntfs
[11:52] <milan_> oh
[11:52] <milan_> lol

[11:53] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: haha yeah, that's really strange that this all didn't get created at install time... but anyway, back to the recovery console and 'chown takamarou /home/takamarou'
[11:53] <_tux> eamonnd: tried changing the preferences in the sound applet? cause maybe there is a bug floating around
[11:53] <cerneula> can i do it with synaptic?
[11:53] <jrib> Enul: you can use flash on 64bit systems, but it takes some extra steps (see ubotu's message)
[11:53] <mojo> Enul: check out nspluginwrapper to run 32bit ffox (netscape) plugins under 64bit firefox
[11:53] <milan_> cerneula: follow instructions on the given URL
[11:53] <takamarou> chown? crazy sound command.. thanks
[11:53] <Enul> ok i'll do that thanks
[11:53] <serenityUK> Enul, there is an easy script to install flash on 64bit hang on...;
[11:53] <Enul> ok
[11:53] <cerneula> ok, thanks a lot, but what does that have to do with permissions? I am a bit confused
[11:53] <eamonnd> Tux: how would I do that? and what am I changing them to?
[11:53] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: chown changes the owner of files and folders
[11:53] <CoasterMaster> oh, you'll have to add -R
[11:53] <mojo> takamarou: CHangeOWNership
[11:53] <eamonnd> Tux: I've messed around a bit and I haven't found any fixes
[11:54] <serenityUK> Enul,  go here it takes 60secs http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476924
[11:54] <takamarou> mojo, clever...
[11:54] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: it's actually 'sudo chown -R takamarou /home/takamarou
[11:54] <voidmage> I just installed eclipse and have a ton of problems with it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35718/
[11:54] <_tux> eamonnd: just to change the sound device and see if any crashes occur when using Ubuntu
[11:54] <Enul> ok goingk there now
[11:54] <takamarou> CoasterMaster, just curious, what does the -R do?
[11:54] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: the -R tells it to change the owner of that folder and everything inside of it (the R stands for recursively)
[11:54] <eamonnd> Tux: so change it from ALSA to OSS?
[11:55] <_tux> eamonnd: On the top right corner there is a sound applet right-click on the sound applet and click on preferences change the sound device to something different
[11:55] <takamarou> mm, big words :D
[11:55] <rabrol> Question about running server edition.  Gnome not installed.  Is it possible to run a screensaver (without X) on a command line server system?  I just don't want to look at blank screens all day!!!
[11:55] <_tux> then try recreating the crash if you can
[11:55] <cerneula> ok guys, thank you very much for the help, I'll try that, THANK YOU!
[11:55] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: unfortunately, I have to run, but there should be other people here that can help
[11:55] <takamarou> CoasterMaster, ok, thanks for all ur help
[11:55] <_tux> could either be a hardware issue/drive issue or something in Ubuntu itself
[11:55] <CoasterMaster> takamarou: no problem, good luck
[11:55] <_tux> driver*
[11:56] <spinzwright> did you get my paste?
[11:56] <eamonnd> Tux: okay I'll try that
[11:56] <eamonnd> Tux: I should let you know, that once my computer crashes, I have to try restarting it two to four times before gnome will load back up
[11:56] <CaptainFrisbee> spinzwright, yes looking at it right now
[11:56] <spinzwright> ok
[11:57] <_tux> dang sounds like a serious issue right there
[11:57] <eamonnd> Tux: it'll usually just crash again during the usplash screen, so if it crashes again this time I won't be on again for a while
[11:57] <_tux> also could of been a bad install of Ubuntu
[11:57] <cerneula> bye
[11:57] <scotte> herro
[11:57] <eamonnd> Tux: I got it from a CD I ordered
[11:57] <eamonnd> Tux: do I need to reinstall it from that CD or order another one?
[11:57] <scotte> how do i stop my sound from being so scratchy on ubuntu 7.04 running on MS virtual PC?
[11:58] <_tux> eamonnd: even if its ordered from the official web site it still can be a bad CD
[11:58] <Enul> thanks for the script
[11:58] <takamarou> ok, so i (finally) got my ubuntu up and running.. do u guys suggest me sticking with the gui, or the terminal?  which one will give me a better long term experience?
[11:58] <_tux> that's why its always a good idea to check for defects on the CD
[11:58] <Ice_> what is the command to make a file an executable file?
[11:58] <Ice_> chmod +x?
[11:58] <eamonnd> tux: okay, I didn't know how to do that
[11:58] <Ice_> I can never remember
[11:58] <medfly> Ice_, the command is chmod, yeah
[11:58] <serenityUK> Ice_,   sudo  chmod  u+x /some/file
[11:58] <_tux> chmod u+x "FILE" without the quotes
[11:58] <milan_> takamarou: just choose whatever you like... but the terminal usually gives more options
[11:58] <eamonnd> Tux: is there anyway to fix the problem without having to through reinstalling it again
[11:58] <takamarou> kk
[11:58] <_tux> or chmod all+x
[11:58] <colourAgga> takamarou: learn terminal so you can troubleshoot when X crashes ;)
[11:58] <gnuskool> takamarou, gui , while you get used to term

[11:59] <_tux> eamonnd: Not that I know of cause the issue could be anything
[11:59] <_tux> the sound driver could be causing the crash, it was a bad install of Ubuntu, its an hardware issue or something else
[11:59] <medfly> hey.. what driver is ubuntu has for VIA cards? i know it has one. is it open?
[12:00] <_tux> you pretty much have to track down the cause of the problem
[12:00] <medfly> graphic cards :-)
[12:00] <_tux> also could be bad software
[12:00] <rabrol> Question about running server edition.  Gnome not installed.  Is it possible to run a screensaver (without X) on a command line server system?
[12:00] <voidmage> hmm.. you probably could using the framebuffer
[12:00] <_tux> I think Ubuntu leaves error logs but I wouldn't happen to know where they are stored
[12:00] <eamonnd> Tux: I don't know the best way to track down the problem
[12:00] <medfly> i wanna start something and debug it, how do i do that? :D
[12:01] <genii> _tux: Usually any logs are in the dir /var/log
[12:01] <eamonnd> Tux: I wouldn't think it's a hardware problem because I've never had one before
[12:01] <gnuskool> medfly, run it from term
[12:01] <Ice_> serenityUK, could I borrow you in channel #ice for a second to wrap this up?
[12:01] <medfly> gnuskool, well, i am doing that anyway.
[12:01] <Hugoh> someone may tell me where the kernel logs are?
[12:01] <serenityUK> ok
[12:01] <_tux> genii: I would check the debug log in /var/log? or is there an error log
[12:01] <velko> rabrol, i don't think so. some programs (including mplayer) can use the frame buffer. so you can watch video on the cosole. but there is no screensaver i know of which can use the frame buffer
[12:01] <erUSUL> !info tss | rabrol
[12:01] <ubotu> rabrol: tss: A Terminal ScreenSaver. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 19 kB, installed size 160 kB
[12:02] <genii> _tux: There are a few useful ones there. Depends what you are trying to look for
[12:02] <williammanda_> kernel logs are located under system - admin - system logs
[12:02] <gnuskool> medfly, u getting output from the prog?
[12:02] <_tux> eamonnd: type: cd /var/log then type: ls after that you should see a list of logs
[12:02] <medfly> gnuskool, not enough
[12:02] <Hugoh> [williammanda_]  I mean on which file, /etc/log/????
[12:02] <eamonnd> tux: do this in the terminal?
[12:02] <_tux> genii: Its not for me but for eamonnd may be a log could help him determine the crash somehow?
[12:02] <_tux> yes eamonnd
[12:02] <genii> _tux: eg: faillog kern.log etc
[12:02] <idefixs> Hugoh: /var/log/kern.log or sys.log
[12:03] <williammanda_> hugoh   not sure
[12:03] <Hugoh> thanks
[12:03] <rabrol> Thanks for the tips.  Will do some searching on TSS!
[12:03] <medfly> so how can i debug a program?
[12:03] <_tux> interesting
[12:03] <Meroigo_> is there a keyboard combination for typing ascii characters? You can on windows press Alt+<number on numlock> to get a character assigned to that number.
[12:04] <medfly> toxic shock syndrome?
